Validation Rule with picklist values

The formula below requires certain picklists to be populated based on dollar values in corresponding fields.  This works for all departments.  I added the red section because I want to filter in two departments that have to obey this validation rule.  When I added the 3 red lines I no longer received error messages when I was supposed to.  I only want Networks and Distribution to have to follow this validation rule.  What am I missing?

 

Thanks.

 


AND(
DATEVALUE(CreatedDate) > DATE(2012,8,23),
AND(
ISPICKVAL( CCI_Division_Region__c , "CCI Networks"),
ISPICKVAL( CCI_Division_Region__c , "CCI Distribution"),
OR(
AND(Services__c > 0,
ISBLANK(TEXT(Product__c )),
ISBLANK(Services_Product_Involved__c)),
AND(Support__c > 0,
ISBLANK(Support_Provider__c)),
AND(Product__c > 0,
ISBLANK(TEXT(Product_Manufacturer__c))))))

You want to add an OR here. Otherwise the picklist would have to have both values at the same time, in order to evaluate to true.
