Abstract: Founded in 1984 (non-profit status attained, 1985), the STOP AIDS Project is a community-based organization dedicated to the prevention of HIV transmission among gay, bisexual and transgender men in San Francisco. Throughout its history, the STOP AIDS Project has been overwhelmingly successful in meeting its goal of reducing HIV transmission rates within the San Francisco Gay community through innovative outreach and education programs. The STOP AIDS Project has also served as a model for community-based HIV/AIDS education and support, both across the nation and around the world. The STOP AIDS Project records are comprised of behavioral risk assessment surveys; social marketing campaign materials, including HIV/AIDS prevention posters and flyers; community outreach and workshop materials; volunteer training materials; correspondence; grant proposals; fund development materials; administrative records; photographs; audio and video recordings; and computer files.

MILANO www.adelphi.it ISBN 978-88-459-8225-5 STEVE JOBS NON ABITA PIÙ QUI È strano. Tutti quelli che si perdono prima o poi si ritrovano a San Francisco. Dev’essere una città deliziosa, e possedere tutte le attrattive del Nuovo Mondo. OSCAR WILDE DAY AFTER «Prenda qualcosa di caldo, caro» dice una signora con capello candido, al Whole Foods di California Avenue, mentre mi servo un po’ di mashed potatoes il giorno dopo l’elezione di Trump del 2016. A casa, lo psicodramma. Avevo fatto questo esperimento sociologico, per un mese: vivere in un co-living, moderna declinazione della comune, ma qui di ragazzotti col sogno della startup, arrivati da tutto il mondo per giocarsela a San Francisco; dunque camerette minuscole a rischio agibilità vicino al Civic Center, due bagni per dieci persone, uno studentato fuori tempo massimo. Nella Casa del Grande Fratello Startupparo oltre a me ci sono A., ventenne argentina molto simpatica, che studia diritto internazionale e sta tutto il tempo a parlare con la fidanzata che fa la dentista a Mar del Plata, e S., ventenne ingegnere di Stoccarda con una passione soprattutto turistica per la Silicon Valley: va a vedere tutti i quartier generali, di Facebook, di LinkedIn, di Twitter, non si perde un garage, di Steve Jobs, di Google, di HP, e fa le sue stories, soddisfattissimo (si capisce subito che uno dei business più fruttuosi qui non è la startup, ma il turismo della startup).

    CHAPTER IV Environmental Setting, Impacts, and Mitigation Measures SECTION IV.C Cultural and Paleontological Resources IV.C Cultural and Paleontological Resources IV.C.1 Introduction Defining Cultural Resources “Cultural resources” include architectural resources, archeological resources, tribal cultural resources, and human remains. A “historical resource” is defined, under CEQA Section 21084.1, as one that is listed in, or determined eligible for listing in, the California Register of Historical Resources (California Register). In addition, a resource that (i) is identified as significant in a local register of historical resources, such as Article 10 and Article 11 of the San Francisco Planning Code, or (ii) is deemed significant due to its identification in a historical resources survey meeting the requirements of California Public Resources Code Section 5024.1(g), is presumed to be historically significant “unless the preponderance of the evidence demonstrates that the resource is not historically or culturally significant.” CEQA Guidelines Section 21084.1 also permits a lead agency to determine that a resource constitutes a historical resource even if the resource does not meet the foregoing criteria. Buildings and other structures, archeological resources, and tribal cultural resources may all be found to be historical resources, and the Planning Department considers those architectural, archeological, and tribal cultural resources that meet one of the definitions noted above to be historical resources for the purposes of CEQA review. Each of these categories of historical resources is discussed in this section. Further discussion of the definition of historical resources is provided under Regulatory Setting on p. IV.C-46. Subsequent to the issuance of the Notice of Preparation (NOP) for this EIR on April 24, 2013, Assembly Bill (AB) 52 became effective.
