There's a wealth of material in post-marxist and poststructuralist political philosophy to be found at the After 1968 web site, which documents a series of seminars and lectures held in Maastricht over the last few years. You can find texts by Agamben, Deleuze, Badiou, Ranciere, Baudrillard, Negri, Derrida, Nancy, and others there, though it will take some scrolling, clicking, and poking around to locate them.
One of the more interesting finds there is a link to the translated notes from a lecture by Deleuze on Spinoza's concept of affect. It's arguably this concept and its transmission through Deleuze, together with the more recent upsurge of research in the neuroscience of affect and emotion (by people like Antonio Damasio), that underlies the fairly dramatic upwelling of interest in all things 'affective' in recent social and cultural theory.
The site also provides links to Deleuze's last published piece of writing, the brief, lyrical "Immanence: A Life…", and to Giorgio Agamben's insightful, meditative dissection of it (which, thankfully, is only slightly marred by Agamben's own obsessions with sovereignty, "bare life", biopolitics, etc.). Agamben spends three whole pages analyzing the punctuation – colon, ellipsis – of the title alone, and though that may sound overindulgent, it's well worth reading.
Deleuze's notion of immanence changed over the years and, as Christian Kerslake argues, left questions and inconsistencies in its wake. But it remains very evocative and, in this final version at least, sounds to me completely resonant with the (Madhyamika) Buddhist ontology I've been exploring.

DETROIT, MI (My TV20 News at 10) --- Someone is claiming to be responsible for that offensive sign recently posted at Detroit's old Packard Plant.
The infamous German phrase appeared at the plant last month.
The phrase means "Work Makes You Free."
Those words appeared at the entrance to several concentration camps during World War 2.
Someone named "Penny Gaff" is taking responsibility for posting the sign at the plant.
She makes the claim on the Facebook page of a photographer in Berkley.
We have not been able to talk to him.
Gaff claims she posted the phrase to protest the corporate society in America.
Gaff also compares the destruction of her sign to the destruction and theft of the original one from the Auschwitz in 2009.
It's doubtful that's the person's real name.
A "penny gaff" was a popular entertainment for the lower classes in 19th-century England.

Reem Acra

Reem Acra - New York: Spring 2010
View Gallery
(New York) The Daily's favorite cha-cha queen brought a sense of exuberance to her collection this season, which she described as inspired by both a vintage kaleidoscope and the 40th anniversary of Woodstock. Looks were playfully over the top without veering into costume territory: piled-on pearl and crystal necklaces, mixed-up floral and "erosion" prints, and on-trend looks like elaborately draped jersey harem pants. Of course, Acra's red-carpet offerings will not go unnoticed (in fact, Acra is off to LA for Emmy dressing almost immediately post-show): a poppy-red strapless gown is a glam no-brainer, while a neon sulphur draped number is perfect for the more adventurous starlet.

Bring Cool Ranch Doritos to Quebec!
Cool Ranch Doritos are unavailable in Quebec. Frito-Lay claims that Cool Ranch Doritos are manufactured in Quebec however they are not sold in stores in Quebec, and are not supposed to be sold in stores in Quebec. There are a small number of depanneurs in Montreal (that will remain unnamed for legal purposes) that sell small 75g bags of Cool Ranch Doritos yet there are no stores that sell big 280g bags of Cool Ranch Doritos. It seems the only way to get a big 280g bag of Cool Ranch Doritos in Quebec is to go to Ontario, Vermont, or New York, buy them, and bring them back to Quebec yourself. Cool Ranch is an awesome flavour of Doritos, and should be made available in all depanneurs, grocery stores, and other Dorito-vending outlets in Quebec. If they\'re manufactured in Quebec, they should be available in Quebec!

During the twelve part series viewers, "amateurs," will become professional sports people and can start their first biking marathon without any hesitation.
The twelve part series first introduces the technical side of taking care of a bicycle and how to adjust it. After that our guide Jarda Kulhavý together with professional trainer Viktor Zapletal explain the techniques of a ride and how to set up a training plan for a competition. "The whole series aims to prepare viewers for a real competition, where they will compete against real professionals," explained Jarda Kulhavý about the educational series.
The second series of the cycling school is tied to last year's popular series. It focused on beginners and throughout the series we learned how to choose the right bicycle and how to take care of it.
A long-term partner of the cycling school, Birell, was again involved in the making of the second series. The Birell brand has been supporting cycling since 2002 when it started its own bike path in Beskydy, and soon after it added another three. Furthermore, in 2009 we launched a new website for all fans of cycling at www.birell.cz. This interactive website offers a full collection of bike paths around the whole country including comments about the level of difficulty. A simple search engine requires only a few parameters such as region, required length of a path and difficulty, and the page offers about 450 bike paths.
Nonalcoholic beer Birell is an appropriate drink for people doing sports - besides vitamins, it has proteins and sugar together with minerals such as potassium, sodium, magnesium and folic acid. It effectively helps to hydrate your body and replenishes necessary nutrients. Furthermore, non-alcoholic Birell is a product resulting from natural processes without the use of any chemicals. And that is why professional sports people just like Jarda Kulhavý include it in their eating habits. "I consider Birell to be a very appropriate part of my drinking regime. Its composition effectively adds nutrients and liquids after a strenuous sporting event not only for professionals, but also for amateurs," said Jarda Kulhavý.
Anybody interested in the cycling school by Jarda Kulhavý can find more information at www.birell.cz.

Analysis Update: (Continued Posting)
I love home underdogs. They are like jackpot. Especially in the Ivy league.
Tonight we have Brown hosting Harvard. Fun, High IQ basketball action tonight.
I took the line last night while it was available at +7.5.
Many of you who watched, these two had a double OT brawl at Harvard exactly three weeks ago, where Harvard finally pulled away for a victory.
Brown is tough man, and now that they have a rematch at home against the 1st seed in the Ivy league, you better bet they are going to bring the intensity here tonight at home.
In the past ten matchups between the two teams, Brown leads the ATS record at 4-1 in the past 5 matchups, and look for them to take advantage of +7.5 points at home to start the game.
I do not need to say more about this matchup tonight. The numbers speak for itself. +7.5 is a safe, risk reduced line to play on. If you can find it, don't hesitate. Hop on it.
Take Brown tonight
+7.5/-110 BetOnline (Current Line +6)
I wish you all success and enhanced wisdom to become a great sports bettor. Stay connected for more picks.

Spanish Springs and Reed represent the High Desert League, taking two of the conference's top four berths — second and fourth respectively. First-round tee times for the two-day regional event start at noon Monday. Dayton Valley Country Club is a 6,637-yard, par 72 format for the region's top golfers.
"We've had an excellent week of practice, probably our best of the season" first-year Reed coach Nick Nemsgern said. "The boys are excited for this opportunity. They've been staying after practice, hitting extra balls and putting in extra time on the putting and chipping greens. They are revvelling in the fact that whatever happens, they want to enjoy their last few days of golf."
The North's top two teams and top five individuals from non-qualifying teams will advance to play in the 4A State Championships, which will be played May 14-15 at the TPC of Las Vegas.
Spanish Springs finished second to Reno in all six of the HDL's weekly tournaments this spring. The two HDL powers, along with Sierra League leaders Manogue and Galena, are the favorites to nab the North's two team state bids.
"We actually have pretty high goals for ourselves," second-year Spanish Springs coach Nick Wirshing said. "We feel like we've been close all year and that we've had good focus and practices this week. We don't feel like winning a regional title is out of reach for us."
While Spanish Springs has not competed against either Manogue or Galena in 2012, Wirshing has tried to study up on the Sierra League's upper echelon and he's compared scores throughout the season between the two leagues. The Cougars coach said he'd be surprised if the North's two state invitations don't come from the Spanish Springs-Reno-Manogue-Galena group.
"From looking at scores, I feel like those are the top four teams right now. Those four seem to be a little bit above the rest," Wirshing said.
Spanish Springs is led by senior Jordan Gilmore, the defending North individual champion. Gilmore helped Spanish Springs to a state team title as a freshman when he was the individual state runner-up. Gilmore won five of the six HDL tournaments this season and held the league's low scoring average.
"We've talked about him being the reigning champion of the North and he'd like to go out as a two-time regional champion for sure," Wirshing said. "When he's playing, he's really competing against himself. I don't think he thinks a lot about the end of the second day until maybe the back 9 of the second day. He does a good job of staying within himself."
In addition to Gilmore, Spanish Springs will send five other golfers to Dayton Valley as it hopes to steal a state berth. Tommy McAllister, Cole Shirley, Matt Perera, Matt Beebe and Owen Bartlett make up the Cougars' contingent.
Four of the six SSHS golfers have had the luxury of playing Dayton Valley multiple times in the past. Wirshing said his players have had team meetings to discuss the course and even taken the course's virtual tour online, going over each hole shot by shot in hopes of maximizing their preparations.
"I really feel like we can get one of those two berths if we stay out of trouble, stay out of the water and stay out of the bushes," Wirshing said. "If we do that as much as possible, I really feel like we'll be one of those two state-bound teams.
"All of our guys have a number in mind that they'd like to shoot. Jordan's goal is to be under par. If he can do that, and we can get two or three guys in the low 80s and two others in the mid to high 80s, then I like our chances."
At Reed, the Raiders needed a fourth-place finish in the last HDL tournament of the spring, last week at Washoe Golf Course, to clinch their regional slot. Nemsgern admitted his team has no grand illusions of garnering a state berth. Like Wirshing, he thinks the state berths will come from the aforementioned foursome. Still, he and his Reed players do want to finish their season on a high note, by scoring as well as they possibly can.
"When I named our regional team, we were talking about what we had done this season," Nemsgern said. "I think our home course of Hidden Valley plays a little longer but there's no doubt that there are more pitfalls at Dayton Valley. Career bests would be nice but I asked the kids what they were thinking. Without missing a beat, every one of them said for at least one of the days, they were looking for a career best."
Reed's scoring all year has been paced by sophomore Trevor Wood, the only golfer other than Gilmore to win an HDL tournament this spring. While Reed likely won't qualify for state as a team, Wood has a real chance to capture one of the Norths individual state berths.
"Trevor has lofty goals," Nemsgern said. "He wants to go to state this year. He is singularly focused and excited about his chances. Since we got back from spring break, he's hitting the ball as well as anyone in the North … It's really about his attitude. If he keeps that together, I'm confident he'll have success."
After Wood, Reed will get five other golfers into the regional tournament. Dylan McKenzie, Tyler Carnahan, Dave Hibler, Wyatt Koski and Garrett Marchese will compete for the RHS squad when play begins Monday.

1915. "Eitel Friedrich, German ship taken over by U.S." The commerce raider Eitel Friedrich, a former passenger liner converted into an auxiliary cruiser for the German navy early in World War I, put into port at Newport News, Virginia, for repairs in March 1915 after sinking a number of British ships (and one U.S. merchant vessel) and taking on more than 300 British and French prisoners. After almost a month the captain decided to intern, and the vessel was towed to the Philadelphia Navy Yard, where she remained under the German flag until being seized by the U.S. government in April 1917.

150 Years of temperature-related excess mortality in the Netherlands

|cold spells, heat waves, infant mortality, mortality, Netherlands, temperature
Even in present-day high-income countries, there is a lot of evidence of a high degree of vulnerability of the population to both high and low outdoor temperatures. The magnitude of temperature-related mortality is strongly related to a wide variety of social, economic, and behavioural factors. To gain insight into the changing impact of cold and heat on mortality, we analyze Dutch individual death records in relation to daily temperature for the period 1855-2006 for one of the 11 Dutch provinces. Making use of negative binomial regression analysis, we study whether the effect of temperature varied by age, sex, and social class, and analyze the changes in the vulnerability to temperature fluctuations.

Chip Gliedman, VP & Principal Forrester Consulting, Inc; Sid Kumar, VP Customer Lifecycle Solutions, CA Technologies
The software, tools, and processes used to win, serve, and retain customers will become critical to the success of the organization in what Forrester identifies as today's 'age of the customer'. Those who will succeed are agile, proactive, and best able to deal with this disruption in the status quo of business. One of the issues a business must incorporate into its strategy for success is why and when to modern existing IT solutions.
Commissioned by CA Technologies, Forrester Consulting research evaluated the impact of software modernization, or lack thereof, on a number of key business metrics, such as revenue growth, profitability, and product and application development cycles time. The goal of the research was to inquire about the level of modernization across a number of classes of enterprise software and to explore the correlation between leaders and laggards in modernization and high and low business performers.
Forrester's study yielded a number of both expected and counterintuitive findings. This webinar presents key findings and resulting five key planning recommendations.

Who's Going to Modernize and Manage my Mainframe?

Troy L. Coleman, Sr Principal Product Manager, CA Technologies
Over the course of the last 15-20 years, "industry experts" have been proclaiming the death of the mainframe. The reality is that the mainframe continues to thrive and grow and house the majority of the world's most critical business data.
The real issue we are beginning to experience is a shortage of skills for managing the mainframe. Mainframe DBAs are aging and retiring and new talent is not being trained quick enough. The new generation of IT professionals has a completely different way of thinking and working. The i(Pad,Pod, and Phone) generation has no interest in the acronyms TSO or ISPF. In order for these up and coming professionals to manage the mainframe they will require a new toolset geared towards their way of thinking.
In this webcast, we'll provide real life examples of z/OS systems management for the next gen mainframe. We'll also discuss how an integrated role based workspace can help you simply and effectively manage tasks like identifying DB2 performance bottlenecks or performing complex migrations.

Testing on the Mainframe; Why You Care…
Feb 11 2014
57 mins
Marcel den Hartog, Sr Marketing Strategist and Wolfram Muehlboeck, Engineering Services Architect of CA Technologies
"Do more with less" is something you and your management often hear. And you cope, you work a bit harder, you skip some things that have a priority other than "critical" and you cope. But there are moments where you and others in your company can't cope anymore, and something has got to give.
Why spend 20+ hours to test a new version of your DB2 database, a bug fix or enhanced version of a new application and even a new version of your z/OS if you can do 80% of the testing in 10 hours? Or maybe even 5 hours? Unfortunately, Murphy does not have to do more with less. And the "other" 20% of you and/or your end-users who did NOT test will cause problems costing more than you have saved by less testing. Testing must be rigorous and it should reflect REAL production behavior 100%.
Automation is the only answer to this. Join us for a one hour session to see how YOU can start using the latest money saving features in DB2 months earlier for 30% or the cost testing takes you today! Or how YOU can be 100% sure the new version of your OS behaves exactly like your previous version.
Best Practices for Upgrading to DB2 10 for z/OS

Vikram Krishnan, DB2 for z/OS Team Lead at Transunion & Jim Wankowski, Principal Consultant, PreSales at CA Technologies
Maintaining currency of your DB2 environments is a never ending process.

Wehunt said Victory Christian gave a warning Monday night that it may not have enough players and made the forfeit official Tuesday.
"We naturally wanted to get the win playing, but it gives us a chance to get a few guys better after being beat up," the coach said.
Despite getting Ohatchee in the win column, the general reaction was disappointment, especially from the seniors, who now have one game left playing for the Indians.
"When I told them Tuesday before practice the general reaction was, 'Hey coach, come on.' You've worked all year to play and they don't want to hear that," Wehunt said. "They're disappointed and the whole group is disappointed because our guys want to play."
The Indians continued their usual practice schedule this week and began preparation for their Week 10 game against Gaylesville. Wehunt said having Friday open will provide the coaches a chance to get a first-hand look at Gaylesville.
"Watching teams on film doesn't really give you the real-time game speed," he said. "Gaylesville plays Donoho tomorrow so it'll give us a chance to see those guys in person."

The ax started to fall last week on political appointees who were given permanent civil service payroll jobs by the Rell administration in the months leading up to the change in governors.
The new Democratic governor, Dannel Malloy, said he would have his agency heads review the personnel files of, and possibly weed out, Rell's political people who made their way into regular merit-system jobs, and two were shown the door this past week, days before their probationary periods ran out.
One was Debra Hinman of Burlington, whose case was covered extensively in this column. She was the 55-year-old ex-school bus driver and pizza restaurant chef who lacked experience or education in farming but still was hired July 16 as an agricultural inspector by Rell's agriculture commissioner, F. Philip Prelli.
Hinman — who also happened to be the mother of a former aide to Rell's now-departed chief of staff, M. Lisa Moody — was let go on Tuesday from her $61,664-a-year job, four days before her six months' probation would have ended and she would have attained permanent status.
The other — never mentioned in this space before — was Christopher Tymniak, 32, of Stratford, who ran Rell's Bridgeport office for three years before his transfer last July 16 to the Department of Motor Vehicles as its $81,830-a-year legislative program manager. He got a visit Thursday from the DMV's chief administrative officer at the department headquarters in Wethersfield and was told he was out of a job. He was two days shy of the end of his "working test period," or probation.
"The determination was made that Mr. Tymniak would not be successful in his job, which is the purpose of a working test period," DMV spokesman William Seymour said Friday.
The Malloy people seem to be beginning their terminations with the Rell holdovers whose probation periods are soonest to end. The new governor and his staff have been mum on the number of Rell appointees' resumes they are examining and the total number of firings they envision.
But Tymniak talked freely on Friday about what this political situation looks like from the receiving end. "I understand that that there's a [new] party in power," he said. "I want to give the new governor the benefit of the doubt — he's got tough decisions to make … balancing the state budget and all that."
Tymniak is a registered Republican and the son of two former members of the state House of Representatives. He said he is not active in GOP politics and knew from reading the newspaper that Malloy would be examining the qualifications of the Rell people he inherited. But, he said, "I saw myself as a government employee" instead of a political type who would be questioned for lack of qualifications — as was Hinman, who has chosen not to talk about her situation with The Courant.
Tymniak said he got a 91 on his civil service examination — not the highest among candidates, but at the high end, he said — and was interviewed before his hiring by Robert Ward, who then was the DMV commissioner and recently was named one of two state auditors of public accounts, subject to upcoming legislative confirmation.
"I thought I would have had an opportunity to meet the new commissioner," Tymniak said. "Because Gov. Malloy said everyone would be looked at carefully, I was hoping that would have meant the commissioner would have called me in and said, 'Listen, Chris, you're on a list here' ... and I could have explained what I had been doing" and argue his case.
But it didn't happen that way, and a day later Tymniak and his wife, Nicole, had agreed that she would return to work full time at a West Haven forklift company in an administrative job. She had been working three days a week while their 2-year-old son, Sam, was in day care and staying home on Tuesdays and Thursdays with the boy. Now the boy will be pulled out of day care to save money, and "I'm going to be Mr. Mom" while he looks for a private-sector job. Tymniak has a degree in business management, as well as a real estate license.
"One thing I do want to say is that I thought the DMV leadership and employees do a remarkable job there," Tymniak said. "They're not appreciated."
Others are likely to follow Tymniak and Hinman out the door in coming months, because the probation periods of several of those in question extend into June.
One political appointee who got a big civil service job in Rell's waning days is Jacqueline Mandyck of West Hartford, whose probationary period ends April 21. Mandyck, who had been Rell's deputy commissioner of consumer protection, was hired Oct. 22 into a $113,623-a-year permanent job on the state payroll as a community development administrator in charge of a newly reorganized housing division in the state's Department of Economic and Community Development.
Mandyck knows Moody, the Rell staff chief, as well as Moody's friend and influential lobbyist Paddi LeShane. She was hired for the new job by Rell's economic development commissioner, Joan McDonald, over two higher-scoring candidates.
McDonald had expressed an interest in remaining as commissioner under Malloy and has been running the department on an interim basis since the new governor took over. But on Friday, she was nominated as New York state transportation commissioner by Gov. Andrew Cuomo, so she won't be staying.
Whether Mandyck will stay is unknown. Malloy and his staff still have not said whether they will keep her. Sources note that Mandyck has both Republican and Democratic ties and might find receptive ears in the new administration; while she has worked most recently for Rell, she previously worked for Trinity College on the Learning Corridor development next to the campus in Hartford at a time when former Democratic state Senate President Pro Tempore Kevin Sullivan, also of West Hartford, was a Trinity administrator.
Another Democrat who worked with Trinity College on that project was ex-Hartford Mayor Eddie Perez, now free while appealing a corruption conviction for which he has been sentenced to three years in prison. Mandyck helped to plan two mayoral inauguration galas for Perez, The Courant reported in 2006.

Pretty necklace I really like this necklace. I have it in gold, and the gold is a good quality. It doesn't look cheap. I searched for this style of pearl necklace for quite a long time before finding it here, and I am really pleased with the purchase. The pearl is about the size of a cranberry or blueberry, not like a pea, if that helps anyone visualize it. November 21, 2013
Nice, delicate piece I got this for my mom, and I was afraid when I saw it that the big pearl wouldn't look good with the dainty chain. When she put it on, though, it looked great! The pearl looks a bit cheap, but the chain the looks very nice. The chain is so thin that I'm afraid it will break easily, but it's held out for two months so far. March 21, 2013
Very sweet I love this necklace. It is very sweet and simple, but dresses up just enough for work. I adore it. February 6, 2013
Pearl is big but still looks good I bought this item for my mom as a gift, and was afraid she wouldn't like it when I saw how big the pearl was. But when she put it on, it looked really nice. She wore it with a button-up shirt, so I think the presence of the collar and neckline helped. The chain is really beautiful. January 18, 2013
Simple and Classy This seems to be a go-to necklace for me during the week. It is a very nice length and can go with many different things. I love it. December 17, 2012
Very cute necklace I was looking for a simple short necklace to wear with a blouse that had an open neckline. I thought this looked nice online and it had good reviews. When I received it, it exceeded my expectations. I love the small beading detail on the chain. I also appreciate that you can adjust the length some based on your preference or what you are wearing it with (the pendant moves easily). I would definitely recommend it. It is a great piece to have to wear when you want to class up some of your basic wardrobe pieces. April 26, 2012
Nice I really like this necklace. I love the uniquely designed chain! Very dainty and nice :) March 13, 2012
Great Necklace I've been looking for a pearl pendant, and this was the perfect find. The chain is unique, and the pearl is the perfect size. I'm really happy with my purchase! January 18, 2012

Motivated by controversial topics including city classification, the 2 percent prepared food tax and the Elizabethtown Sports Park, the large field of qualified individuals with wide-ranging experience and equally broad viewpoints campaigned hard for the six seats available on council.

San Francisco, CA -
01/16/2008 - Thousands of arts organizations across California will improve the impact they have on their communities and the state by participating in the California Cultural Data Project, a new statewide system now available on the Web at www.caculturaldata.org.An ambitious effort to gather and analyze information about the contributions of the cultural sector to California's economy and quality of life, the California Cultural Data Project is the first comprehensive data collection and grant application tool available to the state's arts organizations. California is the first state in the western United States, as well as the largest overall, to participate. The Cultural Data Project started in Pennsylvania in 2004 and launched in Maryland in 2007. The Pew Charitable Trusts houses and administers the project for each state, helping to ensure comparable, standardized data across regions.Arts and cultural organizations of every size routinely face challenges associated with collecting and reorganizing information for grant applications and data reports. The California Cultural Data Project will help streamline the funding application process for organizations by giving them the technology to organize their financial data to match each participating funder's requirements. Groups will save time in the grant-application process by completing one online form each year that will supply information for the financial portion of many grant applications. In addition, the project will enable groups to track and analyze their data and compare how they operate relative to their peers."The Cultural Data Project helps groups spend less time on the process of collecting and organizing their data and allows them to focus instead on what the numbers suggest — their trends, opportunities and challenges," said Bobbie Lippman, project director, Cultural Data Project, and Senior Officer for Culture, The Pew Charitable Trusts.This comprehensive, standardized data collection will also allow the cultural community as a whole to articulate and provide evidence for the sector's assets, needs and contributions to the state. It is anticipated that as many as 5,000 organizations in California will be participating in the project by 2011.A series of workshops has prepared groups for this new technology, and the site includes such features as an online training component for new users, timely technical support and a financial expert on call. More information is available at www.caculturaldata.org.The launch of the California Cultural Data Project has been made possible through the leadership of the California Arts Council, The Getty Foundation, The James Irvine Foundation, Los Angeles County Arts Commission and The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, which have provided a total of $2.5 million in support of the project.The Cultural Data Project was developed and is overseen by a collaboration of Pennsylvania funding agencies that includes the Greater Philadelphia Cultural Alliance, Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council, The Heinz Endowments, Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, The Pew Charitable Trusts, The Pittsburgh Foundation and the William Penn Foundation.Additional support for the California Cultural Data Project is being provided by funding or the participation of: the Alliance for California Traditional Arts, Sacramento Metropolitan Arts Commission, Arts Council for Long Beach, San Diego Commission for Arts & Culture, Arts Council Silicon Valley, San Diego Foundation, San Francisco Arts Commission, California Community Foundation, San Francisco Foundation, Culver City Cultural Affairs Division, San Francisco Grants for the Arts, David & Lucile Packard Foundation, San Jose Office of Cultural Affairs, Durfee Foundation, Santa Monica Cultural Affairs Division, East Bay Community Foundation, Fleishhacker Foundation, Jewish Community Foundation, The Wallace Alexander Gerbode Foundation, Los Angeles County Arts Commission, Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, Walter & Elise Haas Fund, Marin Community Foundation, West Hollywood Arts and Cultural Affairs Commission and Pasadena Cultural Affairs Division.NOTE: Interviews with the managers, funders and groups using the CACDP are available.
