CRV (venture capital firm)

CRV, formerly Charles River Ventures, is an American venture capital firm focused on early-stage investments in technology. The firm was founded in 1970 to commercialize research that came out of MIT. Its name comes from the Boston area Charles River. History Charles River Ventures was established in 1970 in Boston, Massachusetts. Dick Burnes, founder of Teradyne, helped found the firm. By the early 2000s, the firm opened an office in Silicon Valley. The firm has raised over $4.3 billion since inception across 18 funds. Upon closing of the 16th fund, the firm rebranded to CRV. Prior to that, CRV's 15th fund closed in February 2012 with $375 million of investor commitments. CRV's 14th fund raised $320 million of commitments. In 2013, it invested $15 million in Pebble Technology, which was credited as the primary reason why Pebble was acquired by Fitbit in December 2016. This netted CRV a $40 million return. In 2024, CRV returned 275 million dollars from the 500 million it had raised in its current fund back to investors, stating that their focus would shift away from late-stage investments and toward the early stage. Among CRV's portfolio companies are Aveksa, DoorDash, mabl, OneLogin, Stella, Sybase, Yammer, and Zendesk. References External links Official website Venture Firm Is Giving Loans a Try.

Chateau Colline

Chateau Colline is an historic eight-unit apartment building on Wilshire Boulevard in the Westwood section of Los Angeles, California. History and characteristics Designed by architect Percy Parke Lewis, Chateau Colline was built in 1935. Its leaded-glass windows, turrets, and climbing vines give it the appearance of a castle. The building also has large wood-burning fireplaces with handcrafted mantels, bakelite intercoms, vaulted ceilings and outside nooks for milk bottles. The Los Angeles Times has reported that rumor has it that "Clark Gable and Bette Davis once lived there, holding lavish parties in a second-story apartment." Landmark status In 2001, the owner applied for a permit to demolish the building to build a six-story condominium project in its place. With support from the Los Angeles Conservancy, tenants organized an effort to declare the building an historic monument in order to prevent its demolition. The owner claimed the rent-controlled building had become a financial drain and needed new plumbing and electrical systems. Los Angeles City Councilman Jack Weiss supported the effort to declare the building a historic landmark, calling it a "unique, vital piece of Holmby Hills and Westwood history." The City Council eventually voted 14 to 0 to declare the building a landmark. Chateau Colline was recognized as a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (LAHCM #703) by the city Cultural Heritage Commission in 2001 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2003.

Chico Community Observatory

The Chico Community Observatory, also known as the Anita Ingrao Observatory, is a non-profit astronomical observatory owned and operated by Kiwanis Club of Greater Chico. It is located in Chico, California's upper Bidwell Park. Entrance to the observatory is free as the facility operates on donations and volunteers. Anita Ingrao Anita Johanna Ingrao was previously co-director of the observatory and was involved as a volunteer since the opening in 2001. She had a passion for teaching children about astronomy. In 2009 she was even invited to the White House to teach kids about science in an event organized by NASA. She also worked on PBS program 400 Years of the Telescope with her fiancé, Kris Koenig as well as Assaulted: Civil Rights Under Fire, Sight: The Story of Vision, and her Los Angeles Area Emmy-winning telecourse Astronomy: Observations and Theories. In 2014, she died at 51 years old from stage 4 breast cancer and the observatory was named after her. Today, the observatory is directed by Bill Koperwhats. Renovations and Theft Issues Because of the facility's reliance on private donations, the observatory has had issues with repairs and replacements of their expensive equipment that has forced the observatory to shut down for months at a time. Solar Panel Theft In 2009, unknown suspects stole three of their six solar panels and damaged the remaining. It was initially believed that the observatory would need to close down until they were able to afford the solar panels which costed about $2,500 each. This issue was quickly resolved within a month of the incident when an anonymous donation made it possible to replace and fix the solar panels and the observatory was up and running again. Closing of Summer 2017 In summer 2017, the observatory closed due to mechanical troubles for an entire year. The observatory needed $8,000 for repairs. Finally, the batteries, air conditioning, and retractable roof were repaired in July 2018, which was made possible by community donations.
