Connected vehicle research is being sponsored by the US DOT and others to leverage the capabilities of wireless technology to make surface transportation safer, smarter, and greener. The CVPD Program will encompass multiple pilot sites over time, with each site having different needs, focus, and applications. Available funding for the CVPD Program is approximately $100 million. On March 12, 2014, the USDOT released a Request for Information for the CVPD Program to gather information from the public and private industry about connected vehicle technology and provide notice of anticipated procurements for pilot deployment concepts.

  • Hewlett AR.03
    The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation Statement of Purpose he William and Flora Hewlett Foundation has been making grants since 1966 to help solve social and environmental prob- lems at home and around the world. “Never stifle a generous impulse,”was a favorite saying of entrepreneur William R. Hewlett, who established the tHewlett Foundation with his wife, Flora Lamson Hewlett, and their eldest son, Walter B. Hewlett. Indeed, it was the personal generosity of Mr. Hewlett, who passed away in 2001, and Mrs. Hewlett, who passed away in 1977, that has made the Hewlett Foundation one of the nation’s largest grantmaking foundations, with assets of more than $6.3 billion as of December 31, 2004. In 2004, the Hewlett Foundation awarded $169,457,880 in grants and disbursed $268,669,188 in grant and gift payments. The Foundation concentrates its resources on activities in con- flict resolution, education, environment, performing arts, popula- tion, and U.S.–Latin American relations. In addition, the Foundation has initiatives supporting global affairs, neighborhood improvement, and philanthropy. The Foundation’s work is informed by three fundamental values: I First, the Foundation is concerned primarily with solving social and environmental problems. This requires the staff to define Program objectives, grants, and other activities in terms of prob- lems to be solved; to identify indicators of progress and criteria for evaluating success; and to be prepared to stay the course. I Second, because the solutions to serious problems are very dif- ficult to predict, the Foundation must be prepared to experiment and take risks in its philanthropic activities.

Kicks off 22nd Season on PBS Tuesday, June 23, 2009 Former Drug Dealer Struggles to Transform Himself and His Community Through His Faith and His Music Produced in Association with Latino Public Broadcasting (LPB) And the Center for Asian American Media (CAAM) “New Muslim Cool transcends race, ethnicity, class and religion. Like hip-hop culture, the film is all about irrepressible social transformation and empowerment.” — Dr. Benjamin Chavis, Hip-Hop Summit Action Network New Muslim Cool is Islam as you have never seen it. It is also hip-hop as you have probably never heard it. This new film, which opens the 22nd season of P.O.V., PBS’s award-winning nonfiction film series, gives audiences an insider’s view of a little-known cultural fusion between Muslims and street beats that has been developing since the very beginnings of hip-hop culture. The result is a surprising challenge to stereotypes of both Muslims and urban youth in America that encourages viewers to look critically at the “clash of civilizations” between Islam and the West.
