Shopping for Free?

Virtual Mall is the creation of programmer Pat Gustin, who launched the free mobile game just nine months ago. To date, more than 300 thousand people have downloaded the application, of which roughly 60 percent are active at any given time. Such numbers are very appealing for companies who advertise through mobile applications.

"The idea of the game is simple," says Gustin. "People rent spaces in a virtual shopping mall and

select products to sell from a catalog we provide." — [1] —. He explained that if the virtual vendors are able to manage their stores correctly, they make a profit in virtual money. — [2] —.

The game offers a level of detail and customization that is appreciated by users. It has even proven to be popular among women, a difficult target to reach in the world ofmobile gaming. — [3] —. 

Gustin says he is also working on another game called Virtual Farm, to which he will apply the same concepts but in an agricultural setting. — [4] —. He hopes to launch the game by early next year.

Those interested in learning more about Virtual Mall are encouraged to download the application for free. For details about Gustin's other games, go to www.virtualgamesco.com.

A 24-hour convenience store franchise has been named the Best Company of the Year by the Midwestern Retailers Federation (MRF). Stop Avenue won the prestigious prize for successfully introducing sandwich bars in its branches, the first of their kind in any regional convenience store. The company emphasized organic and healthy ingredients in a televised advertising campaign a year ago. Since then, the sandwich bar has become increasingly popular among consumers, resulting in a sales boost of 40 percent compared to the previous year.

Stop Avenue's general director Aaron Patel says the person behind the success of the venture is Felix Richardson, the youngest son of Stop Avenue founder Francis Richardson. Felix took the position ofmarketing director two years ago, during a time when company sales were declining by 20 percent every quarter. Felix realized he needed to change the way Stop Avenue marketed its products. He gave the stores a new look, offered selective discounts, and introduced the sandwich bars, which ultimately allowed the store to gain a larger consumer share. "It was a risky venture for Stop Avenue, but Felix proved that the key to staying competitive is change," Patel said in an interview with Businessmate Magazine.

And now the company plans to start targeting female clients between the ages of 20 and 30. "We will launch a selection of fruit shakes starting next month," Patel added, "using natural ingredients, of course." The improvement of Stop Avenue has led to greater franchise numbers. This past month alone, 18 new stores have opened, more than in any other year since the franchise launched. At its present rate of growth, Stop Avenue is expected to include 500 stores within the next two years.

Good Times to Be Had at Toronto's Edge Festival
By Tim Cosgrove

If you have never been to an Edge Festival, I strongly encourage you to board the next bus, plane, or train for Toronto while there is still time left. With hundreds of shows to choose from, you're guaranteed to find something you will like.

What began as a small event in Scotland that provided amateur artists and performers with an outlet to showcase their talents, now attracts thousands of enthusiastic fans from around the world. The festival grew to become such a success that organizers decided to export their idea to other countries, starting this year with Canada.

Some of my favorite performances so far have been Toronto local Eric Robeson's play Kalinda, a ballet by Argentine dance troupe Danza Volar, and a violin-and-accordion duet by Wendy Kaufmann and Noah Rossi. Also noteworthy was a stand-up act by Irish comedian Elsa Ball, a returning performer I saw at a sold-out show during last year's festival. In addition to a host of artistic shows and performances, the festival offers other forms of fun, including a variety of exotic food stands and family-centered entertainment.

There have also been reports that festival organizers are planning to take the event to Dublin next year and then to Sydney the year after that. Artists or fans who would like to see this happen can make themselves heard by adding their comments on the Edge Festival's Web site.

3-D Printer Workshops
Warner City Library, Lafayette branch
September 27
Workshop 1: 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m.
Workshop 2: 4:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.

Many businesses use 3-D printers to create small customized products to sell on the Internet. 3-D printing also has applications for dentistry, automotive design, architecture, and more. Imagine what you could do! The Warner City Library is now offering you the chance to learn about this amazing technology!

Our $30 workshop includes:

• A free demonstration of the 3-D printer
• A short video on innovations in 3-D technology
•  A group discussion on the potential applications and uses of 3-D printing technology led by Warner City Library director Ryan Jefferson
•  Hands-on practice, guided by our technical expert

- Each participant will get to choose among five keychain designs to print and take home.

Due to space restrictions, each workshop will be limited to 12 people. To register, visit the library's front desk or go to www.warnerlibrary.com/3-DPrinter. For inquiries, call Sarah Andrews at 555-9796 or e-mail [email protected].

Dear Ms. Andrews,

I am the president of the Warner Art Community and a sculptor by profession. I recently read your flyer about the 3-D printer workshops. Our group is interested in taking advantage of this opportunity However, we'd like the focus to be on art rather than general 3-D printing. So, we hope that we can develop a custom workshop.

Our members have some specific interests surrounding how we can use 3-D printing in art. We would like to follow the curriculum you offer but would prefer to discuss more specific applications for our work on our own. I can lead those discussions. We may also want to explore making items of our own design in addition to the items you offer. Could we meet to discuss this further? Naturally, our group will pay any additional fees.

Please let me know when you might be available.

Sincerely,
SamJackson

DATE                        May 2

Dear Ms. Kentley,

My name is Brayden Craig, and I work at Peakland Dairy in Surrey. Our shop will be launching a new selection of ice cream this summer, and we are currently searching for ingredients. We plan to include a strawberry variety, and we would like to place a bulk order with you. This would be for 250 kilograms. Could you let me know if your farm has the means to fulfill such a large order and, if so, what the cost would be? Naturally, if sales are good, we will place another order next season.

Also, in addition to vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry flavors, we may feature a new variety in the future. We are considering using raspberries and are wondering if your farm grows them. If so, we would like to place an order for 250 kilograms of them when they are available.

Regards,

Brayden Craig
