Just want to say DS9 is probably my fav of all the series. A few years back I watched them all on DVD. Thinking again of dusting off the DVDs. I thought about just watching the Dominion War Episodes and think of it as one huge movie/miniseries so-to-speak and not watch the "stand alones"/doesn't really add to the Dominion War episodes. Does anyone have a listing of Dominion War specific episodes etc?? Thanks in advance.
Basically: Season 2 The Jem'Hadar Season 3 The Search 1 & 2 The Abandoned* Improbable Cause/The Die is Cast The Adversary Season 4 The Way of the Warrior Hippocratic Oath* Starship Down Homefront/Paradise Lost To the Death Broken Link Season 5 Apocalypse Rising The Ship Rapture* In Purgatory's Shadow/By Inferno's Light Soldiers of the Empire* In the Cards* Call to Arms Season 6 First six episodes (Occupation Arc) The Magnificent Ferengi* One Little Ship* In the Pale Moonlight Valiant* Tears of the Prophets Season 7 Image in the Sand/Shadows and Symbols Treachery, Faith and the Great River Once More Unto the Breach* The Siege of AR-558 It's Only a Paper Moon* Chimera* Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges Final 8 episodes + WYLB The Dominion "hot war" doesn't really start until "In Purgatory's Shadow/By Inferno's Light" in season 5 or technically perhaps as late as "Call to Arms," but I've included first contact and the cold war period. Astericks indicate episodes that involve the Jem'Hadar without impacting the war much, or that contribute to the overall Dominion War storyline in some relatively minor way. There may be a few I've neglected or could arguably be included alongside these, but I think that's most of them.
^ I'd just add Statistical Probablilities to that list cuz it shows Damar taking over for Dukat and foreshadows what his relationship with Weyoun would be like, plus features a major strategic action by the Dominion in the war, picked up on by the Jack Pack.
I'd also add Waltz showing Dukat's escape as a POW and his descent into madness. Change of Heart featuring Work and Dax's mission to rescue a Cardassian defector seems a logical choice as well. Both are in season six.
I would add Rules of Acquisition to the very beginning. At that point the Dominion is still a formless mysterious menace. It makes the reveal of the Jem'Hadar in their titular episode quiet satisfying.
Thanks to all who posted. I'll be watching all that you everyone listed....again, i'll have to see if watchin in those episodes will feel like a mega miniseries.
What you are asking, Nathan, cannot really be done in a thorough way, because DS9 doesn't work like that. The Dominion War and its characters are often featured in episodes that are not mainly about it. flemm's list for example, is missing amazing Dominion-related scenes from episodes that are excluded from it, like Ties of Blood and Water and Statistical Probabilities. As another example, In the Cards also features the Dominion prominently and the tensions about the war that is about to start, even though it is not mainly about the Dominion War persay.
Navaros, thanks for the input...I'm going to add the episodes that others have mentioned as well. I agree with you that DS9 wasn't designed as "Dominion War Only" but if I get the bulk of the Dominion War/Dominion War build-up episodes I'd be satisified. I guess I remember when i watch them straight thru a few years back I was all into the Dominion War Arc then some stand alone came along (yeah, it probably had some War references, but you could do without it). I'm not just in the mood to watch 7 sevens of DS9 and just want a Dominion War flavor -- and really I'm looking for a miniseries feel. Nathan
I'd add two S3 episodes because even if it wasn't obvious at the time, the events they depict were precursors to the war: Defiant and Visionary. The latter may seem like an odd choice, but what if blowing up DS9 was the Romulans' Plan A, and being thwarted forced them to move on to Plan B, which was depicted in Improbable Cause/The Die is Cast?
I gonna add them..and yeah, I suppose you could stretch some of them to see if they really play into the Dominion War Arc, but hey if I have few extre episodes to watch, all the better.
In the end, Navaros is right - DS9 is such an arc-based, serialized show that even episodes that seemingly have nothing to do with the Dominion arc are still part of its tapestry. When I was a teenager I once edited together a VHS tape of all the Dominion episodes from seasons 2, 3, and 4. I think I included The Jem'Hadar, The Search, The Abandoned, Defiant, Heart of Stone, Improbable Cause, The Die Is Cast, The Adversary, and The Way of the Warrior. And then I ran out of tape. But even then I realized I could have added Rules of Acquisition and Visionary, perhaps even Sanctuary and Shadowplay for some early references. Just go for the gusto and watch it from beginning to end.
This always ends up being the best advice of course, but for someone who as already seen the whole show and just wants to get back in on some of the action, there's nothing wrong with a Dominion War sampler
This can get kind of complicted: Ties of Blood and Water is an important Dominion episode in that it re-introduces Weyoun, but to appreciate it you really need to have already seen Second Skin, which doesn't feature the Dominion at all. Then there's Blaze of Glory, which is set against the backdrop of impending war with the Dominion and uses the Jem'Hadar as baddies, but is also the end of a three episode story arc, the first parts of which have no Dominion involvement.
That opens up quite a can of worms. To really get Blaze of Glory you have to see For the Cause and For the Uniform. But for those to really have an impact you'd have to at least watch The Maquis, and maybe throw in TNG's Journey's End to get that ball rolling.
I'd also include "Afterimage" illustrating Garak's contributions to the allies and the tremendous burden of going against his own people and also the Dominion's use of Cardassian troops as cannon fodder.
I can see opening a can of worms. To truly get "Once More Unto the Breach", you'd have to have seen "The Sword of Kahless" and "Blood Oath." On the other side, most of us can agree that "Extreme Measures" was the weak link in the 10 episode arc to close out the series.
And of course to truly get Blood Oath you really should go back to TOS and watch Errand Of Mercy, The Trouble With Tribbles, and Day Of The Dove. It never ends!

The Duchynski Funeral Home was founded in the early 1920s by John Duchynski of Yonkers, New York. He was a native of Panikowika Mala, Galicia, Austria. Mr. Duchynski came to this country in 1913, settling in Yonkers, and was married to Antonia Dubyna on August 12, 1916. The couple, who made Yonkers their home, had 5 daughters. Mr. Duchynski attended school here and graduated from the Renouard Training School for Embalmers.
The original home of the business was at 46 Washington Street in Yonkers, and was later moved to larger quarters at 39 Washington Street. In 1941, the main office was established at 111 Yonkers Avenue, Yonkers, in Westchester County, and the business has been running at this location until July 2016. It was then re-located to its current address at 601 Yonkers Avenue.
After the passing of Mr. Duchynski, in July of 1966, Mrs. Ann Cherko, his oldest daughter, who was associated with her father in the business, took over the day to day operation of the funeral home along with her husband, William Cherko, Sr. At that time, the funeral home was renamed to Duchynski-Cherko Funeral Home, Inc. William John Cherko Jr. , their son, also came on board as a licensed funeral director and he was also responsible for much of the renovations of the premises.
Mrs. Cherko was awarded state licenses as a funeral director and embalmer in 1936 after graduating from the Renouard Training School for Embalmers in New York. Only twenty-one at the time, she was the youngest licensed female mortician in the city. Mrs. Cherko ran the Duchynski-Cherko Funeral Home until her passing in 2004.
Today the Duchynski-Cherko Funeral Home, or as we lovingly refer to it as D-C, is still family operated by Anna and Ted O'Lear, niece and nephew of Mrs. Cherko, who purchased the funeral in April of 2007.

David Cameron has been accused of putting Britain's national security at risk by not ensuring the Government has proper contingency plans for national emergencies.
An all-party group of MPs and peers criticised the Prime Minister for telling them when they quizzed him in January that he believed in "planning on the basis of what you want to achieve." They warned that the crisis in Ukraine and last winter's floods in Britain showed the need for better long-term and strategic thinking in government.
In a report published today, the Joint Committee on National Security Strategy expressed concern that the absence of contingency plans is "dangerous and unwise." It added: "An attitude if 'no plan B' is dangerous when national security is at stake."
The MPs and peers said the new national security strategy due to be published after next year's general election should consider energy security, climate change and acknowledge that the UK would have less clout on the global stage. Denying a loss of influence would be "wishful thinking rather than credible strategy," they said.
Margaret Beckett, the Labour former Foreign Secretary who chairs the committee, said: "The Prime Minister has been helpful and candid with us about his approach to national security and vision for the UK's future, but we think he is too focused on managing current events at the expense of looking ahead. Recent events at home and abroad are a salutary reminder of the value of thinking about threats to our national security in the widest sense and of keeping a close eye on what is over the horizon."
Mrs Beckett added: "Worryingly, there is every sign that we are heading for another rushed job after the election and for a 'motherhood and apple pie' document that again avoids the big questions and is of little practical use in guiding government decision-making. That is not what this country needs at a time when resources are limited and we must focus on what is most important."

CALLBACKS: Pitbull, LawsuitPool
If you could hire LawsuitPool to put a hit on one celebrity, who would actually let's not ask that one. What one legal activity would you hire LawsuitPool for?
Getting rid of Justin Bieber.
I'm sorry, but his time has passed, and he's become a massive jerk.
I'm sure Benzie Johnson would concur.
Fortunately, I've somehow managed to avoid most contact with Justin Bieber and his music. It was only within the past few months that I came across one of his songs on the radio. I am very very lucky to be so sheltered!
Indeed you are…
Getting rid of Matt Groening. Now that Futurama is over, I have no further use for him.
Dude, do you want me to force him to make new episodes at gunpoint? I love forcing people to do things at gunpoint! It's almost as much fun as shooting them, and without all those messy homicide and manslaughter charges!
NO, LawsuitPool! Get out of the comments!

Just curious questions, does BA1 share the same qualities as AlephJ since both circuit's single ended class A and could share the same qualities, sonic wise. Is it not BA1 more modern or enhanced than AlephJ since it was developed 2009? What are the differences topology wise?

Ok, sorry about the lack of information from me lately... I've been working. I'm a pilot, and when I'm out, I am genuinely out.
Anyway, The original PCB house was practically impossible to work with, their Promo pricing was predicated on using a generic software, not using Gerber as they indicated. A forum member suggested another PCB fabricator in Silicon Valley, and the process is hopefully on it way as of last night. I should have the prototype boards in my hands next week. I am going to build one prototype, buzzforb is going to build one as well. I am looking for one more volunteer to build the Aleph J to verify that we have a good PCB. Anybody interested would need to be able to build it quickly, and preferably from stock they have on hand. If you think you can knock one together easily and quickly, PM me. I will be able to send you the last set of PCB and maybe a small handful of parts. If you have something like an F5 that you would want to adapt the case and PSU to the Aleph J, that would be a fine project, as it would also show that once you have one DIY firstwatt amp, it's easy to try other configurations.

IARC History
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) is the outcome of an initiative by a group of leading French public figures, who succeeded in persuading President de Gaulle to adopt a project to lighten humanity's ever-growing burden of cancer. The project rapidly gained momentum, and IARC was created on 20 May 1965, by a resolution of the World Health Assembly, as the specialized cancer agency of the World Health Organization. The Agency's headquarters building was provided by its host in Lyon, France.
IARC has its own Governing Council, and in 1965 the first members were the Federal Republic of Germany, France, Italy, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America. Today, IARC's membership has grown to 25 countries.
The first IARC Director was John Higginson (1966-1981), who was followed by Lorenzo Tomatis (1982-1993), Paul Kleihues (1994-2003), Peter Boyle (2004-2008), and Christopher Wild (2009-present).
Over the past five decades, IARC has conducted research worldwide and helped thousands of cancer researchers from developing countries hone their skills through fellowships, courses, and collaborative projects.

Biggest quake in a century rocks Victoria Melbourne Australia
It was the biggest earthquake to hit Victoria in more than a century and millions felt it when it struck just before 9pm (AEST) for about 30 to 40 seconds on Tuesday.
Reports started coming in from residents in suburban Melbourne and then spread to the northeast and southeast of the state.
Unusual for Australia! The biggest mistake people make is to run outside. It is always recommended to look for the smallest most compact room in a home, like a bathroom or a walk-in closet and stand in there. IMO.

I lived in California most of my life and grew up in earthquake country out in the desert. The best thing is to have something sturdy in your home that you can crawl under. My family had an extremely sturdy dining room table. We had a LOT of earthquakes, but never to the point of having to crawl under that table!
Awaiting email from friend Coxy in Melbourne; as he lives in an upper story of an apartment building, it may be awhile, till the wooziness wears off or something.
I understand perfectly. I come from Chile, where it happens all the time. I've never crawled under a table either, but we used to stand under doorways, because they had a reinforced steel lintel. A bathtub with a mattress over the head is also a solution, the same for hurricanes (we call them cyclones here).

Don't forget he may have lost some internet accessibility. A 5.3-5.5 isn't really that large to me (So CA native), but this is EQ country, and we're built to withstand a lot higher magnitude, and taught how to handle it when it occurs (dining tables are really, really good...as are doorways without doors).
I hope all are safe and sound, and it was only building damage.
Herding CatsWhen you find yourself in the position to help somebody, do not feel burdened. Rather, feel happy and blessed because God is answering that person's prayer through you. In that moment, you are God's Angel - His door to reach through and bring light to someone who is struggling in the darkness.
Be God's Light. Be God's love. Be an answered prayer. Be God's Door.
All my friends and relatives in Melbourne are posting funny messages on FB.
The picture of one outdoor chair fallen over saying 'we will rebuild', 'I feel the earth moving under my feet', 'what earthquake? They call THAT an earthquake?' , and others didn't feel anything.
It was near Moe I believe which made the headlines 15 years ago with a rather bizarre case of a toddlers death. The main suspect was aquitted, but most believe he is guilty.
The case was in the news again just last week, saying that no reward would be on the table since the police consider the case closed.
Sorry to go OT, but everytime I hear of Moe I think of little Jaidyn Leskie.
Whew! Word finally from pal in Melbourne. I had thought he was higher up than the third floor, and glad he wasn't.
Yes indeed - things shook, rattled and rolled in my flat for what must have been almost a minute. I'm three floors up in a four story building so naturally I held fears for loss of vinyl and electronics in the event of a collapse. It was mild compared to the really serious quakes overseas but you just don't know how serious it's going to get at the time - or if that's the last of it.
My parents live close to the centre of Melbourne.....They felt it shake and rattle. I live an hour or so closer to what is the epicentre (Moe) and it did quite shake, nothing fell off shelves, but had it been stronger, things would have started falling......It was scary as it happened, now we can giggle about it. Moe is 1.5 hours drive away from me.
The adrenalin sure did raise because i'd never felt it like hat before. We have had smaller ones where the epicentre was Kooweerup and surrounds...Korumburra I think....but this one was stronger.
PS : Kimster.....you are a beautiful lil ripper for opening a thread for this....You kind thing you. (((((HUGS))))) and to everyone who sent me PMS, yoou are so very kind to think of me...Luvs Ya's dearly xox (and i'd never have won this academy award without the help of......lalalalalalala" gigglesLast edited by willough; 06-20-2012 at 01:11 AM.

Lahore Ke Rang, Hari Ke Sang
Sachal Music
Hariharan is a playback singer and composer of contemporary Hindi music who has won numerous awards for singing and songwriting. Born in Mumbai, Hariharan studied Carnatic music and later on, ghazals (love poems). On this release, Hariharan celebrates the music of Lahore, Pakistan. A few of the composers are included, such as Wazir Afzal, Nazar Hussain, and Qadir Shaggan. Lyricists include Amir Khusro, Bulleh Shah, Majeed Amjad, Hasrat Mohani, Mushtaq Soofi, Tajjamul, Adeen Taji, and Nasir Kazmi. The instrumentation is characteristically filmic; with symphonic strings, tabla, sitar, and floating vocals that coalesce into a wonderful musical medium. The contemporary arrangements should intrigue young and old alike. The ten tracks run almost one-hour in length. Buy it today! ~ Matthew Forss

Social Entrepreneurs Nicholls
Published: Last Edited:
This essay has been submitted by a student. This is not an example of the work written by our professional essay writers.
Defining social entrepreneurship - Due to its relatively new term, it is challenging to define what social entrepreneurship is and the process of deriving its conceptual contexts and boundaries. The main two reasons behind the challenge are 1) lack of strong consensus among scholars and researchers in the subject 2) complex nature of the concept itself. Nicholls (2005) states 'social entrepreneurship, although being a newly coined term is not new', citing establishment of private hospitals in Victorian era as examples. The statement is on par with Thompson et al (2000) also speaking of the origin of the idea dating back to the days of Florence Nightingale but acknowledging that the term is now used in literature to cover many initiatives and diverse range of activities.
Nicholls and Cho (2006) argue that any profound pursuit to understand and define the meanings of social entrepreneurship must logically begin with a rigorous examination of its foundational concepts: social and entrepreneurship, both individually and in relation to each other. There was a supporting statement during Forum Barcelona 2004 as Strong Idea and from that proposition I quote: "The social entrepreneur aims to combine society and economics." Fowler (2000) notes the vital importance of differentiating social entrepreneurship from entrepreneurship which is not social. Dees (1998) agrees and adds that it is necessary to understand what social means in the context of social entrepreneurship and how the objectives of social entrepreneurship are distinct from objectives of non-social entrepreneurship. The 'social' and 'entrepreneurship' aspects of social entrepreneurship will be discussed in more detail in later sections.
The existence of other so-called social ventures creates further complications. Since these ventures are not new, the distinction is required to differentiate social entrepreneurship from traditional organisation forms such as not-for-profits or philanthropic foundations (Boschee, 1998). Here the distinction being 'entrepreneurship', it is important to emphasise the critical differentiating elements of entrepreneurship in social entrepreneurship(Nicholls and Cho, 2006). Harding (2006) in GEM (Global Entrepreneurship Monitor) Report for Social Entrepreneurship defines social entrepreneurship broadly as "…Social entrepreneurship is any attempt at new social enterprise activity or new enterprise creation, such as self-employment, a new enterprise, or the expansion of an existing social enterprise by an individual, teams of individuals or established social enterprise, with social or community goals as its base and where the profit is invested in the activity or venture itself rather than returned to investor". Afterwards she draws on the GEM's definition of entrepreneurship and I quote as "Any attempt at new business or new venture creation, such as self-employment, a new business organisation, or the expansion of an existing business by an individual, teams of individuals, or established business."
Social Entrepreneurs and their motivations
Social entrepreneurs are defined as people who combine innovation, opportunity and resourcefulness to transform social systems and practices in a wide variety of fields, including, for example, health, employment, education, environment, housing and technology in a report by Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship. In addition to not being able to agree on an universal definition of a 'social entrepreneur' there are similar albeit not the same terms such as 'social innovator', not-for-profit manager, civic entrepreneur and etc.
Yunus (2006) states that social (business) entrepreneurs are the ones who are not interested in profit maximisation but instead the ones being social-objective driven who are totally commited to make a difference to the world and who want to give a better chance in life to other people. Yunus continues that social (business) entrepreneurs want to achieve their objectives through creating and supporting sustainable business enterprises. Drucker (2006) argues that social entrepreneurs "...change the performance capacity of society". Some of the writers focus on social entrepreneurs seeking social change. Some writers associate social entrepreneurs mainly with 'non profit' leaders and one of them is Boschee (1998) where he explains social entrepreneurs as "...non-profit executives who pay increased attention to market forces without losing sight of their underlying mission". Thompson et al. (2000) describe social entrepreneurs as "... the group of people who realise where there is an opportunity to satisfy some unmet need that the state welfare system will not or cannot meet, and who gather together the necessary resources (generally people, often volunteers, money and premises) and use those resources to make social change and a difference to those who were served".
Going through the literature on social entrepreneurs and social enterprise bring some insights into motivation of social entrepreneurs. Reid and Griffith (2006) explain that the motivations of social entrepreneurs: those who are involved in leading and running the organisations and businesses vary considerably.
'Entrepreneurship' in social entrepreneurship
Before looking at 'social' in social entrepreneurship, some sound grounding on entrepreneurship should be established. Following the emphasis by Nicholls & Cho (2006) the entrepreneurial distinction, the literature on entrepreneurship is to be drawn upon followed by its relevance to limited social entrepreneurship literature.
The literature on entrepreneurship is mainly in two divisions where the first one focuses on individual entrepreneurs (for example Martinelli 1994) and the second on structure that induces entrepreneurship (such as Thornton 1999). While Martinelli (1994) explains the prevalence of entrepreneurs in terms of innate psychological traits or how special characteristics are formed in certain social groups, Thorton (1999) makes some highlights on how social and cultural structures trigger of call entrepreneurs to seek opportunities in entrepreneurship.
One of the earliest studies of entrepreneurial individuals was David McClelland's 'The Achieving Society' (1961) which was important and made significant contribution to the field. The arguments made by McClelland were that certain societies have cultural attitudes which interpret into certain social norms or social conditions that foster entrepreneurial individuals. The rather negative argument by Kets de Vries (1977) was that the entrepreneurial personality was the result of a particularly painful upbringing. Kets de Vries (1977) argument will fit more into Maslow's view of those particular entrepreneurs trying to fulfil their deficiency needs (Maslow, 1970). Some other academics have sought the entrepreneurial personality in risk-taking propensity, internal locus of control, tolerance for ambiguity, over-optimism and need for autonomy (cf. Delmar 2000).
The structural tradition of research was undertaken to understand factors that trigger or induce entrepreneurship by looking at different factors. Martinelli (1994) emphasises on ease of access to resources such as advice and financial support for start-ups whereas Busenitz, Gomez and Spencer (2000) focuses on issues such as regulatory factors (e.g. institutions and policies), cognitive factors (e.g. knowledge of how to start ventures and obtain financial support), and normative factors (e.g. the perception of entrepreneurship as a career) which are used to explain both types and levels of entrepreneurship in different countries. On the other hand management researchers sometimes emphasise the influence of organisations and especially prior work experience in established firms (Freeman 1986). Established organisations are good platforms for would-be entrepreneurs to learn and nature themselves whilst organisations provide opportunities to build confidence especially in the ability to create new organisations; provide industry knowledge and specific information about entrepreneurial opportunities; and provide social networks which will be crucial to entrepreneurs' later career and access to critical resources (Audia and Rider 2005).
"Social" in social entrepreneurship
It is the 'social' part of social entrepreneurship that makes social entrepreneurship special and different from its commercial cousins. However more importantly, the term 'social' means very different things to different people, depending on their personal and cultural backgrounds (Seelos and Mair, 2005). There is a consensus of various authors in putting special emphasis on social entrepreneurship ventures having social objectives and missions (Dees, 1998, Henton et al, 1997 and Boschee 1998). Dees et al (2002) in their working paper addressed the important and rather interesting factor of social entrepreneurship: social impact and scalability of social entrepreneurship.
I have problems talking more about 'social' in social entrepreneurship
Similarities between social entrepreneurs and (economic/commercial) entrepreneurs
Authors such as (Dees, 1998; Henton et al., 1997) acknowledge that social entrepreneurs being very similar to their commercial counterparts do not get discouraged by the lack of initial funds and other resources to limit their options, and that their reach often exceeds their grasp. Prabhu (1999) notes that not only social entrepreneurs thrive even with the lack of initial resources but also they have a high tolerance for uncertainty like their commercial cousins. Catford (1998) notes that social and commercial entrepreneurs are similar in the way that they are both focused on vision and opportunity and possess the same abilities to enroll and empower others to help and support them to turn these visions into a reality. From above authors one can assume that social entrepreneurs and commercial/economic entrepreneurs have more in common than difference. Austin et al (2006) argue that there is no dichotomous distinction between social entrepreneurship and commercial entrepreneurship but there is rather a continuum of organisations with their purposes ranging from purely social to purely economic. Also they state that both elements of social and economic are present even at the extreme ends of the continuum with examples given as, charitable activities still requiring economic outcomes and economic activities that still generate social value.
There are without doubt other major differences between social and economic entrepreneurs. Prabhu (1999) argues that they are distinguished primarily by ideology, which guides their choices of mission, means and ends, and that social entrepreneurs are "...persons who create or manage innovative entrepreneurial organizations or ventures whose primary mission is the social change and development of their client group" (p. 140) rather than the pursuit of profit. Social entrepreneurs also possess a strong desire for social justice. Social entrepreneurs involved in for-profit activities see profit as a means to an end, while economic entrepreneurs see profit as an end in itself (Dees, 1998) In addition, social entrepreneurs are generally operating in community environments that are dynamic and somewhat unpredictable" (De Leeuw, 1999), adding yet another layer of complexity to the process. Austin et al (2006) propose that human and financial resources mobilisation in social entrepreneurial ventures are contrastingly different from commercial entrepreneurial ones because of the non-distributive restriction on social entrepreneurial organisations and the difficulty in tapping into same financial markets that commercial entrepreneurs and enterprises utilise.
Interestingly the literature states that somewhat unlike their economic counterparts, social entrepreneurs emerge not only as highly entrepreneurial individuals, but also highly collaborative ones, providing "....collaborative leadership to bring diverse parties to the table, identify common ground and take joint action. They build bridges" (Henton et al., 1997, p. 153). The ability to develop a network of relationships and contacts is a hallmark of visionary social entrepreneurs, as is the ability to communicate an inspiring vision in order to recruit and inspire staff, partners, and volunteers (Thompson et al., 2000, p.331). Because social entrepreneurship often demands establishing credibility across multiple constituencies, and the ability to mobilize support within those constituencies, networking is a critical skill for social entrepreneurs (Prabhu, 1999). Unlike economic entrepreneurs, Prabhu argues that social entrepreneurs are often highly supportive of each other's efforts, in some cases writing letters to one another to show this support.
Opportunities for social entrepreneurship

New Mexico Telegram » CD2, Elections, Featured, Federal » Lara endorsed by Blue Dog Democrats
Lara endorsed by Blue Dog Democrats
July 10th, 2014 | Comments Off on Lara endorsed by Blue Dog Democrats
The conservative-Democratic Blue Dog Coalition endorsed Rocky Lara in her race for the 2nd Congressional District.
"I am honored to receive the endorsement from the Blue Dog Democrats who share my commitment to fiscal conservatism and willingness to put partisan politics aside to move southern New Mexico and our country forward," Lara said in the release. "The partisan bickering in Washington is leaving southern New Mexico's middle class families in its wake, and Congressman Pearce has spent his career adding to the dysfunction."
"We are facing too many challenges as a country to stop listening to one another and run to our respective political corners," Blue Dog Co-Chair John Barrow said in the release. "We all have to come to the table, irrespective of party affiliation, and have a meaningful discussion of the issues. Rocky Lara will help the Blue Dogs do what we have always done – bring both sides together to craft policies that move this country forward."
The Blue Dog Democrats are fiscally conservative Democrats who are known to vote alongside Republicans. However, in the increased polarization of Congress, their numbers have dwindled. There are just 19 members of the Blue Dog Coalition in Congress right now. There were 54 in 2009.
Blue Dog Democrats are mainly in the South and rural, conservative areas of states.
A combination of the polarization of Congress, redistricting making once-marginal districts more Republican and a host of other issues have led to the drop in Blue Dog Democrats.
Lara faces an uphill battle in the conservative district in her attempt to knock off Steve Pearce, the Republican incumbent who has won election easily in each of his attempts in the district.
Pearce has held the seat for all but two years since 2002, when he defeated State Senator John Arthur Smith, the most fiscally conservative Democrat in the legislature, for the open seat. Those two years were when Pearce made an unsuccessful run for Senate. Pearce defeated Wilson in a bitterly-contested primary but then lost handily to Tom Udall.

No Aspen, Ore.
It's been 15 years since I visited Aspen, Colo., but I thought of it today when I pulled the Hood River News out of my mailbox and a catalog for luxury shoes, many over $200 a pair, fell out.
Maybe things are different in Aspen today, but I doubt it. The place gave me the creeps. You were expected to be fabulously rich or fabulously poor, working at poverty-level wages to provide services like cleaning luxury hotel rooms or washing dishes in overpriced restaurants. Except for the occasional tourist, there was no middle-class visible anywhere. It was not a healthy place.
Aspen's gas stations and grocery stores were hidden on back streets but you could buy fur coats in three convenient locations downtown. Resorts were building the modern equivalents of on-site shanty towns because employees couldn't afford to live within 50 miles of where they worked.
Hood River is still a nice place to live, but a lot of important decisions are being made. Decisions that produce a sustainable, localized economy emphasizing decent wages without dependence on an influx of the extravagantly rich are the right ones. Creating poverty-level jobs isn't the answer.
I'll make it easy for you. Creating an Aspen with a mega-store Wal-Mart at its edge is the worst choice possible. Destination resorts are not the answer, either. Keep our schools healthy, spend money so it stays close to home, and make choices that encourage clean, minimal-impact companies to locate and thrive here. Hood River will stay a nice place to live.

Game, Wal-Mart?
Imagine a Super Wal-Mart that is architecturally pleasing to the eye that blends in with the natural scenery in the mid-columbia gorge. What an opportunity for the highly successful Wal-Mart company! Should Wal-Mart take this Hood River confrontation as an opportunity, then this store will mark a turning point for big box architecture. I believe that what many of the dissenters of a new Wal-Mart on Country Club Road are saying is, "Please do not uglify our town with a big box concrete warehouse store flanked by sterile asphalt."
Wal-Mart and Hood River planners created a store that was a visual asset to Hood River. What if this new super store became a model for a shift away from the old "warehouse look." Surely Wal-Mart, whose name is now so well known, can make a store that fits design-wise in a rural nature-loving community, without sacrificing brand recognition. Is an ugly store the only way Wal-Mart can advertise itself as a price leader?
I wish everyone shopped for all his or her needs in smaller locally owned businesses in Hood River. But between aggressive developers, and shoppers watching their dollars, I suspect a super Wal-Mart is inevitable. Therefore, I challenge Wal-Mart to give us a new kind of store exterior, one that honors the intent of the Columbia Gorge National Scenic Area. Wadda ya say, Wal-Mart, are you game?

No reason to stay
Last week two pro Wal-Mart letters so proudly stated "I live here and I never go downtown." (Scott Wimp, Aug. 2) and "If Wal-Mart was not here at all, we would not shop downtown" (Don and Gail Johnson, July 30.)
Small business owners have a different quote, "What goes around, comes around." If YOU spend money with small businesses, the whole community makes more money, and has more money to spend with other small businesses. It seems Wal-Mart's quote is "What comes around, we'll take away to make ourselves richer." This is very simple small town economics; you MUST have more money coming in than going out.
Sleep well, knowing you have more pride towards shopping Wal-Mart, than you have for the community that you live in. It is no wonder our most talented young people want to leave our small communities when they graduate high school. They have been given little hope growing up here, and have been shown no reason to stay.

Cookie kudos
I was disappointed to read Peter Van Opel's letter in the July 30 newspaper, charging Citizens for Responsible Growth with "noisy, unruly and insulting" demeanor during two nights of Planning Commission testimony regarding Wal-Mart's application to build a 187,000 square-foot supercenter in Hood River.
I must have been at a different hearing. As a member of the CRG board who was in attendance both nights, I was quite proud of the CRG members who spoke. They were polite and they followed the rules, taking their turn, and listening politely while those supporting Wal-Mart spoke. CRG members spoke specifically to the criteria that the Planning Commission must take into account, and did not raise emotional voices in opposition. There were a lot of us, I will admit, and perhaps that made those uncomfortable who support Wal-Mart's expansion plans. But Wal-Mart supporters were also there, being polite, giving out cookies, waving signs and wearing their blue work vests. I'm glad they were there and I'm glad they spoke. When both sides show up, and one side shares their cookies with the opposition, that's what I like about America.

'Open' vote?
The upcoming waterfront ballot measure, courtesy of the citizens for "Responsible" Waterfront Development and the brain child of Lars Bergstrom, Susan Froehlich, and Walter Burkhardt, fails to answer two monumental questions:
First, how is it "open" and "inclusive" that the residents of the City of Hood River get to decide land-use issues for public property that almost everyone in Hood River Valley pays taxes on? That's right; if you live in Hood River Valley outside city limits, you will be prohibited from having your opinion officially count in November. By the way, that applies to us urban growth residents as well. Initiative driven land use demands that alienate a whole swath of Port district, tax paying citizens? That's not very responsible.
Second, how do Lars Bergstrom, Susan Froehlich, and Walter Burkhardt suggest us tax payers fund a park which occupies the entire waterfront? I read the petition very carefully and couldn't find any reference to that question. I went so far as to look on the CRWD Web site and found no ideas or suggestions for funding there either. Initiative driven land used demands with total disregard toward funding? That's not very responsible as well.
The responsible course of action is to build on the momentum of the Cardinal Glass project which is creating family wage jobs in Hood River Valley. Seeing the economic results of the former Diamond Fruit complex in downtown Hood River due to the collaboration between the City and the Port, it is easy to be optimistic about mixed-use development on the waterfront. There's enough of "no" in this community. It's time for our community to be FOR results that continue to foster recreational opportunities while addressing and alleviating our economic woes. Let's get past this irresponsible ballot measure and move on to successful development of the waterfront.

I have noticed most of the people for the new Wal-Mart do not live in Hood River. The ones that do don't live on the west side where it will be located.

Give input
Regarding our crown jewel, the Hood River waterfront:
On Wednesday, Aug. 13 at 6 p.m. at the old City Hall on the corner of 2nd and State streets, the Hood River City Planning Commission will hold the public hearing on the zoning draft for the waterfront.
The draft states that there will be a 2 to 5-acre park, if the citizens agree to pay for it, somewhere along the Columbia River. There have been inconsistencies regarding the park. For example, the Port Director's figures last week showed a one-acre park plus a one-acre setback on the Western Power site in contradiction to his map coloring in a park for the entire four acres.
Currently, the draft allows the highest buildings in town on our waterfront just 75 feet from the top of the bank of the Columbia River. On paper 75 feet sounds like an adequate setback but outdoors it is not. (For a comparison the west side of the Luhr Jensen building is 69 feet from the top of the bank of the river.) Only 50 feet of the setback would be public. The other 25 feet would be private. Building heights would be 45 feet, the current maximum for the city, or 54 feet for a hotel.
Please speak up for a minimum 6-acre park on lot 6 just west of Luhr Jensen, a minimum 100-foot public setback for buildings from the river and graduated building heights of 28 feet north of Portway Avenue, 35 feet south of Portway Avenue and 45 feet along I-84.
This is the first time the public has had a chance for input. Please attend and speak up or, if you can't attend, write the City Planning Commission.

Typical politics
Propaganda; just what I expected at the Port's "informational" meeting about the waterfront. For example: In their calculations of "open space," they count roads, parking lots, underwater land, and an inexcessible island! With this "fuzzy math," they are able to skew the percentage of "open space" in their new proposed development plans to make them seem more palatable.
They have also abandoned years of planning, which recommended a park on Lot 6. With their new plan, they have swapped the proposed park to smaller property situated directly over the city sewer outlet on Lot 7. Oh, and never mind that this land already has a huge building and a concrete slab to remove (at taxpayer expense.)
Typical politics. You have seen it before; you will see it again.

Tattoo travail
I am writing you in concern to a publication which was placed in the July 29 newspaper under Police Log.
It was in reference to a "client" of ours, "Ink-Spot Tattoo & Body Piercing." It was stated that the client was unhappy with her tattoo, and the workmanship involved.
I do understand your paper keeps names out of the log when it can harm or endanger a person, but we are the only tattoo shop in Hood River and even printing what you did pointed a finger at us. Let me also say that the whole story was not published. The way that it was published makes us as a local business look incompetent!
We deal with a very touchy industry and our name is everything. We focus mainly on Permanent Cosmetics and Body Piercing. All of our staff are state trained and licensed, which I may add is the most highly regulated and inspected state. Our artist, which happens to be my husband, graduated at the head of his class when he was in training and holds a degree in the Tattooing/Permanent Cosmetics field.
In May 2003, the client came into the shop with a small disfigured tattoo on her finger. She explained that it was an old boyfriends initial. She wanted to know if we could tattoo something over it. We told her that it was in her best interest that she speak with a dermatologist about removal. She insisted on having it done.
She stated that she had lived with this ugly initial long enough. We explained to her that any where that there is not a lot of tissue and the skin is thin (feet, fingers, etc.), that there is an extremely high risk of tattoo "migration" — where the outer perimeter "bleeds" out of the area of application. There are procedures that will remove it. This migration does not always happen, but there is a 80 percent chance of it happening in those particular areas, where as there is a 10 percent chance of it anywhere else. When migration does happen, it takes about two weeks for it to appear. We explained all this to the client in full detail. We are required by the State of Oregon to explain pre and post procedures and any/all risks involved in the procedures being sought. We told her that she would have to sign a separate waiver stating that this was explained to her and that she would pay us in full regardless of the outcome. She agreed, signed all the waivers, and got her Tattoo. I have provided a copy of this waiver with this letter. After her procedure, she said she was "happy" with her Tattoo, paid with a check, and left.
The next day, she called us up and said that she wanted us to hold the check for a couple days because she had overdrawn her account, and she would come in and pay with cash. We agreed to this. We waited a week to deposit the check into our business account. She never returned our calls. After we had deposited the check, we got a phone call from our bank telling us that the owner of the check had put a "stop payment" on it. We went to our bank and picked the check up that the "client" had put a "stop payment" on. We eventually got a chance to discuss the issue with her. We explained that she should pay us or get a "Theft of Services" complaint filed against her, which we have filed with the Hood River Police Department. She exclaimed that she was unhappy with her tattoo because it had migrated. I explained to her that she had been cautioned of this prior to the tattoo being applied, and that she was responsible for paying for the procedure.
Our business has suffered over this and since the release of that press, we have had several customers cancel their appointments. We have put everything we have into starting this business not only financially, but mentally and spiritually as well.

Thanks, surfers
Thanks to the Hood River windsurfers.
On Friday morning, Aug. 1, I left two pieces of downhauling equipment laying on the lawn at the Event Site, about one foot off the sidewalk and close to the restroom.
These items are about the size of a pocket knife and a hammer, and cost me around $75. I left them there (in my haste to get out on the water) at about 10 a.m. Eight hours later (at 6 p.m.) I remembered what I had done and drove down to the Event Sight. I am delighted to report that they were right where I had left them. I would venture to guess that 1,000 people saw them laying there.
Thanks to a great community of people. Stories like this need to be published!!

Parkdale third graders sing "12 Disaster Days of Christmas"
Welcome to your sing-able Christmas gift list. What follows is an emergency rendition of "12 Days of Christmas" – for outfitting your home or car in case of snow storm, earthquake, flood or other emergency. Read it as a simple list, or sing it to the tune of "12 Days" – you know, as in " … and a partridge in a pear tree…" Not to make light of it, but the song is a familiar framework for a set of gift ideas that you could consider gathering together, even if the recipient already owns items such as a bunch of coats, tire chains and flashlights. Stores throughout the Gorge are stocked up on all these items. Buying all 12 days might be prohibitive, but here are three ideas for checking any of the dozen off your list (notations follow, 1-12.) The gift items needed to stay warm, dry and safe are also coded to suggest items in your abode (A) in your car (C) or both (B). 12 Gallons of Water (A) 11 Family meals (B) 10 Cans of propane (A) 9 Hygiene bags (B) 8 Packs of batteries (A) 7 Spare coats (B) 6 Bright red flares (C) 5 Cozy blankets (B) 4 Tire chains (C) 3 Flashlights (B) 2 cell phone chargers (B) 1 And a crush-proof first aid kit (B) Price ranges? Here's a few quotes for days Three, Two, Four and Nine: n A family gift of flashlights (three will run $15-30, Hood River Supply, Tum-A-Lum) n Cell phone chargers (two will run $30-60) n Tire chains (basic set, $30, Les Schwab, returnable if unused for the winter) n Family meals ($100 or so should cover the basics for three or four reasonably well-fed days) n The home kit should be kept in a handy place near an exit, and remember that water needs to be replenished every few months. If you have a solid first aid kit already, switch out the gift idea with "and-a-sto-o-u-t- tub-for it-all …" Otherwise, it's a case of assembling your home or car kits and making sure all members of the family know what the resources are and how to use them (ie flares and propane). Emergency situations are at worst life-threatening, at best deeply uncomfortable if you and your family are left without power for an extended period, or traveling and find yourself in a situation where you need to wait out a storm, lengthy traffic delay, or other crisis. Notes on the 12 gift ideas: 12 – Gallons of water: that's one per person in a four-member family to last for three days, the recommended minimum to be prepared for utility outages. 11 – Easy-open packaged goods, energy bars, dried food and nuts are good things to include for nutrition. Think of what your family of four needs for three days to stay fortified and hydrated (see number 12). Can-opener also recommended 10 – If you have a propane camping stove, keep extra fuel handy. 9 – Hygiene bags: put packaged moistened towelettes, toilet paper, and plastic ties in large garbage bags (for personal sanitation) Resource list courtesy of Hood River County Emergency Management, Barbara Ayers, manager/ 541-386-1213. The county also reminds residents to Get a Kit, Make A Plan to connect your family if separated, and Stay Informed. See www.co.hood-river.or.us to opt-in for citizen alerts. Enlarge

Publishers Weekly
Gee's Bend, Alabama, is a hamlet of 750 residents, most of whom are the descendants of slaves from the former Pettway plantation (and bear the surname Pettway), who during the New Deal purchased farms from the government. For much of the last century, the women of Gee's Bend have produced some of the most striking examples of American vernacular art, sharing them among the community and storing them within their homes. Aside from a brief stint of notoriety during a Civil Rights-era "Freedom Quilting Bee," this catalogue, accompanying an exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and New York's Whitney Museum of American Art, marks the work's entry into the public sphere. Founded by art collector William Arnett and Jane Fonda, the nonprofit Tinwood Alliance devotes itself to the cultural legacy of Gee's Bend, here offering 195 illustrations (162 in full color) documenting the quilts and the lives of many of their makers. The oversize format allows the many full-page reproductions to approximate the sensation of a large quilt spread on the page; the many "Housetop" quilts, with arresting geometric patterns and terrific color sense, speak for themselves. The book and exhibition make an important contribution to American cultural history. (Dec.) Copyright 2003 Cahners Business Information.
Quilts of Gee's Bend: Masterpieces from a Lost Place
by William Arnett, Alvia Wardlaw, Jane Livingston, John Beardsley, Paul ArnettSince the 19th century, the women of Gee's Bend in southern Alabama have created stunning, vibrant quilts. Beautifully illustrated with 110 color illustrations, The Quilts of Gee's Bend includes a historical overview of the two hundred years of extraordinary quilt-making in this African-American community, its people, and their art-making tradition.
Editorial Reviews
Library Journal
This distinctive volume provides an in-depth analysis of the African American quilts made in the isolated community of Gee's Bend, AL, which will be featured in an exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art through February 23. The 45 women highlighted represent four generations of quilt makers descended from slaves at the area's cotton plantations. During the Great Depression, Gee's Bend was photographed by Arthur Rothstein and Marion Post Wolcott of the Farm Security Administration. Inclusion of these photographs enhances the volume, as do the scholarly essays on the quilts' historical and artistic significance. The "portfolios" provide an account of the life of each woman, accompanied by photographs of her and her quilts. Identified as "my way" quilts, these works do not conform to traditional patterns. They were made to keep warm and were pieced from any available fabric in a "get it done" manner needed to survive harsh living conditions. Each is an individual expression of pattern and color comparable to works of modern art. Suitable for large art collections; for a broader view of this topic, see Roland Freeman's Communion of the Spirits: African-American Quilters, Preservers, and Their Stories.-Eloise R. Hitchcock, Middle Tennessee State Univ. Lib., Murfreesboro Copyright 2003 Cahners Business Information.

London changes like a stop-motion cartoon. I haven't lived here full time since 1997, but I come back to the UK for three months every year. It's like seeing how other people's children have grown. I had a strange feeling the other day driving through a nice grungy neighbourhood near Shepherd's Bush and thinking "Hey, this looks like London", which made me realise that a lot of London doesn't anymore. I worked out that the reason I thought it looked like London was the dilapidated shops. Shopfronts have become really nice now. If you're too dilapidated a Starbucks will move in and eat you.
I grew up near Croydon, which I thought would be London by now. In my book of non-fiction, The View From The Cheap Seats, I wrote about a second-hand bookshop I went to as a schoolboy, Plus Books in west Croydon. They sold tame pornography for the embarrassed businessman, but also comics and science-fiction. As a 14-year-old you'd get barked at by the man behind the counter who worried you'd go near the porn.
As a starving freelance journalist – and I really was a starving freelance journalist – I could afford to be in London. I'm not sure that the equivalent of me now would be able to do that – friends who do that are in squats and shares where 12 people are in a space that four people should be in.
There are a lot of things about London that have changed that I love, and that are a lot nicer, but on the other hand, I miss the true grunge. I suspect that the next thing I write will be London-based and will be about London just getting a little bit too clean. Where does the dirt go? Thirty years ago I had a room in Edgware for £25 a week. It could only fit my bed, my desk and my books, but that didn't matter.
I remember as a kid reading GK Chesterton's The Napoleon Of Notting Hill and Michael Moorcock's Jerry Cornelius novels, which would mythologise parts of London. I'd visit where these stories happened. Walking down Baker Street – even though there was no such person as Sherlock Holmes and until an extension was built, there was no 221B – there's a bit of magic associated with that.
When I wrote Neverwhere in 1996 I had one huge ambition, which was that for anyone who read Neverwhere before visiting London, I wanted to make London a bit more magical. The glorious thing about the size of the place is that everyone's London is true. There are just 15 million people having their own London.
