Rockin’ For Rett 3.0 a benefit for Rett Syndrome Research



Imagine the symptoms of autism, cerebral palsy, Parkinson's, epilepsy and anxiety disorders all in one little girl. Our family does not have to imagine this. We live it every day. Our 5-year-old daughter Emma suffers from a rare disorder, affecting mainly girls, called Rett syndrome.
Rett syndrome is the most physically disabling of the autism-spectrum disorders; however, it is the only autism-spectrum disorder with a known genetic cause. Primarily affecting little girls, Rett syndrome often strikes just after they have learned to walk and say a few words, and begins to drag their development backward.

Currently there are no effective treatments for Rett syndrome. Most girls survive into adulthood and require total, 24-hour-a-day care.
In 2007, the journal Science published the work of Adrian Bird, Ph.D., demonstrating the reversal of Rett syndrome in mature mouse models with late-stage disease. Only days away from death, these animals recovered normal function and became indistinguishable from healthy mice in a matter of weeks. This singular achievement has catapulted Rett into new realms of possibility and positions Rett syndrome to be the first curable childhood neurological disorder. Rett syndrome, unlike so many disorders (autism, Alzheimer's, Parkinson, MS, etc.) has unique advantages: a known cause (a single gene), excellent animal models that faithfully mimic the human disorder, the prospect of reversibility and fast-paced research progress in the last few years.

Private funding is essential to bridge the "valley of death." This is the funding gap between where government funding of basic science leaves off and pharmaceutical funding of late-stage drug development begins. There are clear treatment approaches that are currently being explored. The ideas, people and projects are in place. Funding is needed to execute this critical work.

On September 24th from 11 - 7, Rockin for Rett 3.0 - Rock the Stalks at Tucker Farms in Gabriels - will be the culminating event of months of planning. Eight soloists and bands will be playing, starting at noon. Bands from the Tri Lakes area as well as from White Plains, Vermont and Cornwall, Ontario have graciously donated their time and talent in our quest for a cure.
http://www.girlpower2cure.org/rockinforrett/emma3.aspx

Food vendors will include Smokey's 911 BBQ and North Country Kettle Corn. There will be a silent auction, basket raffle, Chinese Auction and bake sale and Pie Auction to benefit Girl Power 2 Cure, The Rett Syndrome Center at Montefiore Medical Center in the Bronx and the Rett Syndrome Research Trust. Guests will be able to experience the Great Adirondack Corn Maze as well as farm tours. (An extra charge applies.)

Hilarious "Curiosity Killed the Cat " Films

(photo:Elissa Goldstein & Director Jana Mattioli)

There’s a whole lot of buzz going around about “Curiosity Killed the Cat,” a new comedy film directed by Jana Mattioli and written by Elissa Goldstein. We got a chance to sit in behind the scenes on set for the upcoming film and we can tell it’s going to be outstanding. We caught up with both writer and director to ask about “Curiosity Killed the Cat” and they shared with us their excitement about working with an “incredible cast and crew” to bring together what we know is sure to be a hit.

Acclaimed Lesbian Director Jana Mattioli (An Affirmative Act, BIdentity Crisis) is about to get the masses laughing hard with her new comedy farce “Curiosity Killed the Cat”. Jana has shown her skill in directing drama with “An Affirmative Act,” a courtroom thriller about LGBT marriage, which hit the big screens this past April in theaters nationwide and is currently set for DVD release. This unstoppable filmmaker was recently named as one of The Advocate’s “Forty People Under 40 To Look Out For” in the May 2011 issue.

“Curiosity Killed the Cat” is a tale of what happens when you put together the right people at the right place at the right time with just a little curiosity thrown in for fun. Hilarity ensues! Elissa Goldstein (An Affirmative Act, The Great Fight) proves herself to be not only a talented actress but also a hilarious screenwriter with a comedic flare that is sure the fire up the masses.

The scene is a LGBT coffee house where “straight” Helen (Elissa Goldstein; An Affirmative Act, The Great Fight) meets up with her maybe- girlfriend Pike (Julia Weldon, The Coffee Klash, Before and After) and flirty waiter Jamie (Keith Collins; Stuck in the Middle, A Fight for Survival). Gayle (Blanche Baker; Emmy award winner, Sixteen Candles) and Harold are there too, enjoying a very-soon-to-be drama filled day. When Mary Ann (Samantha Artese; The Coffee Klash) shows up at the coffeehouse, she brings along with her a superb mix of drama and comedy. Steve Wolf (BIdentity Crisis, The Coffee Klash) plays the slimy straight guy Chase, to complete this fantastic cast.Curiosity Killed the Cat is produced by Mattioli Productions in association with Dreamcatcher Entertainment. Executive Producers: Robert and Joyce Borneman, Greg Jackson, and Steve Wolf.

Anything goes when these encounters become a hilarious who's who of attraction, break-ups, one-night-stands, and boundary-free sexuality. You don't know what to expect next! Be ready for it when the film is released in the fall of 2011. Are you curious? We know we are! We can’t wait to see “Curiosity Killed the Cat” and look forward to more amazing projects from Mattioli Productions and Dreamcatcher Entertainment. For more info log onto, www.CuriosityKilledCat.com
