2017 CFAC Donation Letter and Form.Pdf
Dear Friend: Please help us beat last year’s fundraising record by donating to our 5th Annual 2017 Comedy For A Cause Auction and Benefit Show for PS11 The William T Harris Elementary School, located in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City. PS 11 is a wonderfully diverse school with a large percentage of the population qualifying for “free lunch”. The Department of Education provides the basics, but it’s up to the community to provide everything else. The PS11 PTA has made it their mission to make up for this shortfall and more with innovative fundraisers like Comedy For A Cause. Over the past four years, our comedy benefit has raised enough money to enable the PTA to pay for all the school supplies for over 900 students, enrichment programs in the arts (Rioult dance, Rosie's Theater Kids, Julliard Music, Circle in the Square playwriting, etc.), additional teachers to help reduce class size, math and literacy consultants, teacher development and so much more. PS11 was chosen by the New York City Schools Chancellor as a Model School to partner up with two other elementary schools to show them how they can improve practices. Each year, our comedy benefit sells out in a matter of hours. We’ve featured top national talent including Gilbert Gottfried, John Oliver, Jerry Seinfeld, Jim Gaffigan, Jim Norton, Colin Quinn, Susie Essman, Michael Che, Dave Attell, Artie Lange, Judy Gold, Donnell Rawlings and many more. This year’s event will be held at Gotham Comedy Club in NYC on Tuesday, February 7, 2017.

February 2008.Pmd
FEBRUARYFEBRUARY 20082008 PRODUCTION IN PALM BEACH COUNTY GROWS IN 2007! Production in Palm Beach County (PBC) rose 12% in 2007 to a total of $128,328,641 and hotel room nights have increased as well! PBC Film Commissioner, Chuck Elderd feels that Black Entertainment Television’s (BET) Spring Bling and the Palm Beach International Film Festival (PBIFF) are perfect examples of programs that have enhanced event based tourism. Elderd said, “These kinds of entertaining and high-end marketing vehicles are the key to drawing new visitors to PBC.” Other major productions that shot in the County include CBS’s Cane, commercials for Giant Food Stores, the Florida Marlins and LA Weight Loss and still photography shoots for Lacoste, Land Rover and Lilly Pulitzer. These projects brought plenty of cast and crew that stayed in local hotels and ate in area restaurants. Some of PBC’s most unique locations including the Singer Island Beach in Riviera Beach, Sugarcane Fields in Pahokee and the Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens in West Palm Beach were featured in a range of projects. Hotels such as the Boca Courtyard Marriott, Hotel biba, the West Palm Beach Marriott, the Colony Hotel,Palm Beach and countless others welcomed productions throughout the year. Local industry professionals also think the state of the industry in PBC is strong! Monte Young, Young Entertainment Producer, believes that production in PBC will stay consistent with independent films and commercials leading the way, and Bob Peterson of National Teleproductions feels that as the mobile platform continues to dominate the industry, a greater number of small companies will produce videos at a lower cost than the standard.

Tahoe Creamery Ceases Operations,TRPA, USGS Pay For
Tahoe Creamery ceases operations By Reno Gazette Journal Tahoe Creamery, which operated ice cream shops in Sparks and the University of Nevada, Reno and a manufacturing site in Minden, has ceased operations. Tahoe Creamery owners could not be reached for comment Thursday, but a recorded voice at the Minden plant informed callers, “We are no longer manufacturing ice cream due to the stressful economic climate.” Launched eight years ago, Tahoe Creamery operated on Galleria Parkway in Spanish Springs and inside the Joe Crowley Student Union on the UNR campus. The company’s ice cream products also were sold at Northern Nevada grocery retailers. TRPA, USGS pay for high resolution GIS imaging of basin By GISCafe eMap International was contracted by a consortium of regional and federal agencies which included the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency (TRPA) and US Geological Service (USGS) to provide 8-band multispectral high-resolution WorldView-2 satellite imagery over the Lake Tahoe Basin. Given the short growing and cloud-free season in the Tahoe Lake Basin, the specifications of the project required that the high- resolution imagery covering 1,100 square kilometer of coastlines, forested valleys and jagged mountain peaks be collected inside a 45-day window with less than 10% cloud cover. By working closely with DigitalGlobe, the owner and operator of WorldView-2, eMap delivered the specified 2-meter 8-band multispectral and 50-cm panchromatic satellite imagery to the Consortium ahead of schedule and with nearly no cloud-cover (less than 1% across the Basin). Upon receipt and review of the WorldView-2 data, Toby Welborn, a geographer at the USGS Carson City, NV office, said, “This is going to be a fantastic dataset to work with and will provide incredible insight into all types of issues and interests in the Tahoe Basin.” Read the whole story Nevada pioneers to come to life on Minden stage Nevada State Parks is presenting a free Chautauqua-style show Oct.
