The festival has also had the privilege to showcase the talent of independent filmmakers from around the globe including Spike Lee, Oliver Stone, Tim McCanlies, Robert Rodriguez, Sean Astin, John Landis, and John Waters. Every year the festival has grown and reached an even wider audience. However, in 2005 the festival could no longer continue running due to budgetary issues.

National Eating Disorders Association Announces PSA Competition to be Judged by Celebrity Media Panel Grand Prize Winner Will Receive Trip to New York City, Where the PSA Will Debut at NEDA's Annual Benefit Dinner Challenge is Part of Efforts to Raise Awareness of Eating Disorders During the 24th Annual NEDAwareness Week, Feb. 20-26 SEATTLE — Jan. 12, 2011 — For Immediate Release — The National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA) is announcing a PSA competition as part of this year's national outreach campaign to raise awareness about eating disorders (EDs) during its 24th annual National Eating Disorders Awareness Week, Feb. 20-26. With the theme It's Time to Talk About It, NEDAwareness Week is the non-profit group's largest national outreach campaign to raise consciousness about the realities and seriousness of these illnesses, while educating the public on signs and symptoms and encouraging people to get help. The goal is also to spread a message of hope: Help is available, recovery is possible and those affected are not alone in their struggle! NEDA also challenges unrealistic, unhealthy body size expectations, diets and fat talk to reduce disordered eating and ultimately EDs. Lynn Grefe, president and CEO of NEDA commented, ―Today's pressure cooker of ‗the thin ideal' versus obesity is creating our own kind of body mass confusion. Speaking out is more critical now than ever before. We should be measured by the size of our hearts, not our hips. Together, as a society, we should focus on health instead of beauty. We have a lot to talk about and this rich conversation can help save lives by bringing healthy common sense to the forefront.‖ ―The idea behind the PSA competition,‖ explains Grefe, ―is to give entrants a voice and ask them, ‗How would you talk about it?'‖ Winners will be selected by a NEDA Celebrity Media Judges Panel, including: George Larrimore, managing editor of Access Hollywood; and others to be announced. The Grand Prize winner will receive round-trip, coach airfare to New York City (domestic 48 states only), two nights hotel stay, $200 in prize/travel money and will be recognized at NEDA's annual benefit dinner, April 7, where the PSA will be debuted. A 1st Prize winner will receive a $100 prize; and a 2nd Prize winner will receive a $50 prize. All three PSAs will be featured on NEDA's website, will be shown at NEDA's annual conference, Oct. 13-15, in Los Angeles; and will be made available to media outlets and other organizations. RULES & REGULATIONS: The PSA must be 30 seconds in length; be all original material; have a helpful, hopeful or informative message about EDs; and include the NEDA website address and/or helpline number. Submissions must be accompanied by an official submission/release form and postmarked/received no later than Feb. 20, 2011 @ noon EST.

TheBridge Volume 13 Issue Winter 2011 www.sfsr.org San Francisco Samoyed Rescue A non-profit organization President's Message Since 1976, SFSR has continued to rescue, foster, offer vet care and adopt out these wonderful dogs to loving homes. It could not have been done without the generosity, both in time and resources, of our members. Most of you, our supporters and Sammie owners, may not see the condition of some of the dogs who come to our attention. Many of these dogs come to us abused, neglected, and in ill health. Many of them are seniors, having been subjected to awful conditions for years. This is the primary reason our organization is dedicated to making sure the Sams, Sam mixes and Northern breeds that we rescue find the proper care, love and stable homes that they deserve. Given the economic times, asking for donations when a number of families are just trying to make ends meet may be a difficult request to fulfill. However, we only ask that those of you who can, please make a donation of any amount you can afford to renew your membership in SFSR. Our annual membership fee is $25.00 and the renewal or new application forms can be found in this issue of The Bridge. Having said that, I wanted to give a big "shout Vinyl enjoying the snow at Mono Lake out" to the many SFSR members and supporters who have given generously. Thank you!

Some thoughts on Minerality in wines
Mike Roberts MBE- a quality sparkling wine pioneerIt with great sadness that the English wine industry heard of the death of Mike Roberts in November, 2014. Mike set up Ridgeview vineyard in 1995 after a career in the computer industry. His aim, like that of Stuart Moss at nearby Nyetimber, was to produce an outstanding English Sparkling wine. Both succeeded and for the last 20 years, their wines have been the benchmarks by which the other sparkling producers' products have been judged. A wise, kind man, and above all, an example to all who strive for excellence.Everyone in the industry and who came to meet him will greatly miss him.
