HONOR ROLL of DONORS for the Time Period of July 1, 2011 Through June 30, 2012 Children’s Hospital Los Angeles HONOR ROLL OF DONORS For the time period of July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2012 Children’s Hospital Los Angeles is a place of hope and healing because of our nurses, doctors and staff—and because of the vision, energy and generosity of our community of philanthropic partners and volunteer leaders. This community has played a pivotal role since the hospital’s founding in 1901 in a small clapboard house on Castelar Street, where a group of women united to address the lack of medical care for the city’s children. That dedication to children’s health and well-being has thrived for more than a century, as generations of women and men have stood up to lead and support the hospital in an increasingly complex world. Being the best isn’t easy. It takes hard work, dedication and commitment. And it takes a supportive community of volunteers and philanthropists like those listed on our Honor Roll—all of us unified by the noble mission to create hope and build healthier futures. We are honored to recognize individuals, organizations, corporations and foundations for their generosity during Fiscal Year 2012. This Honor Roll includes donors who contributed $1,000 or more in cash gifts, pledges or pledge payments. We also are proud to recognize those who have contributed gifts of $150 to $999 on the Red Wagon Society Honor Roll of Donors, available at CHLA.org/HonorRoll. We extend heartfelt thanks to those who, foregoing individual recognition, directed their generosity through one of our Associate and Affiliate or allied groups. In spite of our best efforts, errors and omissions may occur. Please inform us of any inaccuracies by contacting Michele Phillips, associate director of Donor Relations, at 323-361-1788 or [email protected]. 34 $10,000,000 + Entravision Communications Corporation The Associates Epilepsy Foundation of Greater Los Angeles Andrea and Frank Epinger $5,000,000 TO $9,999,999 Flintridge Guild Marion and John E.

The lyrics’ presence allows filmmakers to digress from sequential imagery through introduction of nonlinear visual elements. I will analyze these surrealist film elements through several post-modern philosophies to better understand how this animated audio-visual synthesis resides in the larger world of art theory and its relationship to the popular music video.

  • Zane Carney Curriculum Vitae REAL 2012
    Zane Carney Curriculum Vitae Zane Carney Guitarist/Songwriter/Clinician Brief Profile Zane Carney currently plays lead guitar for Spider-Man Turn Off The Dark on Broadway with Los Angeles based Interscope Recording act CARNEY. Born and half-raised in NYC, Zane moved to Los Angeles as a child and developed an affinity for the guitar in Junior High when he started performing at local blues clubs. After attending Hamilton High School Academy of Music and touring Japan with the Monterey National All-Star Big Band, he began his collegiate studies at University of Southern Califor- nia’s Thornton School of Music majoring in Studio/Jazz Guitar. As a Guitarist and former Oboist, many of his schooling years included performances with Symphony Orchestras and Chamber Groups which lead to an educational background that is equally classical and jazz. This diversity of musical styles and methods helped to form a unique sound that draws just as much from Jazz as it does Delta Blues, Rock and Roll and Impressionism. Zane has been fortunate to tour the world (Jesse McCartney, Renee Olstead, Ar- mand Sabal-Lecco, etc.), perform regularly on national television (Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel, Good Morning America, etc.), and play lead guitar as an onstage musician at Last Call with Carson Daly and CW’s Oh Sit. On top of this, he has performed with a diverse group of jazz artists including John Daversa whose Big Band album “Junk Wagon” and Small Group re- cord “Artful Joy” feature Zane’s jazz playing Outside of session and touring work, Zane is fortunate to have two strong outlets as an artist.

    SUBSCRIPTION SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2016 MUHARRAM 14, 1438 AH NO: 17020 Thai king takes Purple joy as Pique eyes final journey past Prince hometown Barcelona grieving7 subjects bids24 farewell presidency46 Obama warns ‘democracy itself’ at stake in election Min 20º 150 Fils Trump denies sex assault ‘lies’, faces first lady rebuke Max 37º CLEVELAND/WASHINGTON: Donald Trump savaged the US media for reporting “outright lies” that he groped and forcibly kissed women, as US President Barack Obama warned yester- day that American “democracy itself” is on the ballot and First Lady Michelle Obama blasted the Republican nominee in a powerful tirade. Just 26 days before the American electorate chooses a suc- cessor to her husband on Nov 8, a visibly angry first lady deliv- ered a fiery takedown of the real estate mogul and his “dis- graceful” behavior. “Now is the time for all of us to stand up and say, enough is enough,” Mrs Obama told a rally for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in New Hampshire. “This has got to stop right now.” Her husband turned up the heat later yesterday, jetting to the key swing state of Ohio to lash Republicans tight to their sinking ship. The New York mogul came from a “swamp of crazy” that Republicans had cultivated over decades, Obama told the state where Trump has long held a lead but where a poll on Thursday edged Clinton ahead. Obama warned that American “democracy itself” is on the ballot. He trashed Trump as a dictator-in-the-making, but also voiced concerns about how Trump’s legion of supporters might react to a possible election defeat.
