Entity Framework 4.0 - Running Ad hoc Queries or Commands

A nice addition to the latest version of ADO.NET Entity Framework is the ability to run ad hoc commands.  Two methods of the Entity Context have been introduced to accomplish that: ExecuteStoreQuery and ExecuteStoreCommand. The tricky part is passing the parameters.
