Al Borde Conjures the Living And the Dead at Its 7th Annual Day of the Dead Festival

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 11, 2011

Now in its seventh season, the Al Borde Day of the Dead Music and Art Festival greeted over 700 attendees with music, food, art and dance. The free community event was presented by the Latin Alternative media outlet and Ford of Southern California Dealerships, and took place at El Gallo Plaza, a former mortuary turned coffee shop that sits on East Los Angeles historic Cesar Chavez Avenue.


Community locals, musicians, photographers, and art enthusiasts were predominant among the crowd who were driven to Al Bordes event, highly anticipating the featured live performance by Venezuelan DJ/Producer Mr. Pauer and Mexico Citys El Conjunto Nueva Ola (ECNO). Mr. Pauer and ECNO are music innovators who have been face-lifting traditional Latin rhythms by fusing them with the beats of electronica and rock & roll.


The event also presented its traditional Day of the Dead-themed altar and art contest, which encourages and supports local artists by providing a platform for them to showcase their work. It was a great experience to see young and old, Latinos and non-Latinos come together to celebrate this wonderful tradition and our culture, stated Jaime Lara, winner of the events altar contest who was awarded a $ 100 gift card. Supporting sponsor Wells Fargo also joined the effort by awarding Central Valley High School's art program with a monetary contribution.


Aside from celebrating with art and dance, entire families that attended the event were also stimulated with numerous interactive stations including a childrens coloring contest and photo booth area presented by Wells Fargo, a phone display where attendees tested the latest mobile releases from Verizon Wireless, and a car demonstration from Ford of Southern California Dealerships, where attendees were able to sit-in on a displayed Ford Fiesta.


The presenting sponsors of Al Borde's cultural celebration were Ford of Southern California Dealerships and parent company

Strong Truck Rental and Leasing Market Driving Strong Turnout at NationaLease 67th Annual Meeting

Oakbrook Terrace, IL (PRWEB) September 15, 2011

A strong rental market and robust contract maintenance and full service leasing activity are driving high registration levels for the NationaLease 67th Annual Meeting, Sept. 18-19 in San Francisco.


When the commercial truck rental market is strong, its nearly always a valid economic indicator that the economy is on the upswing. High rental rates lead to increased interest in full-service truck leasing, noted Gene Scoggins, President, NationaLease, one of the largest full-service truck leasing organizations in North America. We think thats whats behind the substantial turnout were expecting at our Annual Meeting.


The gathering of leaders of 175 independently owned full service truck leasing companies, as well as industry experts, and representatives of the largest providers of transportation products and services in the world, takes place at the InterContinental Mark Hopkins San Francisco.


Keynote speaker at the event is technology entrepreneur Scott Klososky, former CEO of three very successful startup companies. He has served as consultant to Fortune 500 companies such as Cisco, Newell Rubbermaid, Lockheed Martin and eBay. Also addressing the group is Bob Costello, Chief Economist and Vice President for the American Trucking Associations. A favorite with the national business media, Costello will give an up-to-date outlook on economic issues facing the trucking industry.


Other topics to be covered at the Annual Meeting include a remarketing outlook, a report on CNG and LNG fueled vehicles, and the top trucking issues of the day.


The agenda also comprises an industry panel and breakout sessions on the topics of driver recruitment and the future of the NationaLease organization. A trade and technology show is part of every NationaLease Annual Meeting.
