A Fort McMurray mother is asking for help finding her daughter.

Vivian Tucarro says her daughter, 20-year-old Amber Alyssa Tucarro, was last seen in the Nisku area on August 18th after flying from Fort McMurray with a friend.

She says her daughter has never gone more than three days without calling.

A spokeswoman for the Leduc RCMP says they've noticed activity on Amber's social networking sites since her disappearance.

Amber last posted on Facebook on August 18th.

She's described as an aboriginal female, about 5'7", 165 lbs, with brown hair with blonde streaks.

If you have any information regarding Amber Alyssa Tucarro's whereabouts, contact the RCMP at 780-788-4000.

A costume delay bumped back the headliner, but the show went on...

Last night's SummersEND Headliner Destroyer were close to calling it a night after "Gene Simmonds' costume and guitar were on a different flight. A member of the summersEND staff was waiting at the airport for it's arrival, and the band finally took to the stage an hour and 20 minutes after their originally scheduled time.

Besides the snafu the days entertainment definitely rocked the crowd, and Bon Jovi Tribute band Bed of Roses doubled their output by putting on a 2 hour show.

Tonight's headliner is Stompin' Tom Connors.

Since the start of a fast by the executive director of the Family Crisis Society, the community has shown their support. Mary-Ellen Proctor says that since the beginning of their campaign, they've found homes for nine families. Most were offered by private citizens, and two clients were placed in secure housing, since they were at a higher risk.

The fast was originally started to raise awareness for the victims of domestic violence, whether they're female, male, young, or old. They're also hoping to get donation commitments from local business, so they can build a new shelter that can cater to more people.

As for the fast, Joanne Roberts picked up with her own after Proctor finished her's, and is just days away from wrapping up 21 days without food. The time frame of 21 days was chosen because that's the amount of time a woman can stay in an emergency shelter before her case file is reviewed.

There is another person in place to participate in the fast, to pick up where Roberts leaves off, but that person will not be announced officially until early next week. There is also a waiting list of 30-40 community members who are willing to fast to raise awareness.

Now that they've found homes for families, they're hoping to collect furniture for three additional families. When a client has a place to go, they often don't have household items, such as beds, tables and chairs, couches; and things like towels, bed linens, and dishes.

If you have items you'd like to donate, you can call Amanda at the Family Crisis Society, at 780-743-4691 extension 1.

Two years after an oilsands worker drowned in a tailings pond, two companies are now facing charges. 47 year old Rick Boughner died in September 2008, after the excavator he was using to clear debris from the pond tipped over, trapping him at the bottom. Canadian Natural Resources and Clayton Construction of Lloydminster are facing charges related to workplace safety.

Enbridge will be investing $185 million to expand its Athabasca oilsands pipeline to accomodate new volumes from Cenovus Energy's Christina Lake project. The expansion will boost capacity of the Athabasca pipeline to 430,000 barrels per day when it comes online by the fall of 2013.

It's the second expansion announcement from Enbridge in as many weeks. Last week, the company announced they're planning to build a pipeline that would connect Suncor's site with the Cheecham terminal. Building the Wood Buffalo pipeline is set to cost the company $370 million.
