Project Pat

Trailer for the documentary California State of Mind: The Legacy of Pat Brown. Governor Pat Brown was California s most important governor of the post-World War II era and the patriarch of the so-called West Coast Kennedys. Incredibly, his story has never before been portrayed on film. Now, from a filmmaker in a unique position to tell that story his granddaughter Sascha Rice comes a thoroughly engaging documentary of his career and family, and of the times he helped shape. Key episodes depicted include the creation of California s Master Plan for higher education, the massive state water project that pitted Northern and Southern California against each other, the controversial fair housing act, and Brown s epic political campaigns against Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Especially poignant are the relationships between Gov. Brown and his son, Jerry (the current Governor), with daughter Kathleen (the filmmaker s mother and gubernatorial candidate), and wife Bernice.

It was commissioned by Leeds City Council through their ERDF funded RouteMap project and co-financed by ourselves at the start of 2008. This project was born out of our desire to provide a high quality resource for weapons awareness practitioners within Leeds and West Yorkshire. The project also gave targeted participants a programme of activity

(Marquette, MI) - Dozens of youngsters from across Michigan created recycled holiday cards and homemade tea bags for gifts this weekend during the Northern Michigan University EarthKeeper's Eco-Christmas Workshop at the Peter White Public Library in Marquette. The Northern Michigan University EarthKeeper (NMU EK) Student Team hosted the workshop from 1-4 p.m. across from the children's library attracting several mothers from the Lower Peninsula and a teacher from Paradise in the eastern Upper Peninsula who plans to bring the idea into her classroom. While finding ways to entertain and educate her children while her husband checked out job offers in Marquette, Tara Strong of downstate Grand Blanc brought her young daughter and baby son to the Upper Peninsula Children's Museum and then the Peter White children's library.

I've been making crafts, said four-year-old Anja Strong.
