The Presbyterians Reconsider Anti-Israel Divestment
2:19 PM, Feb 20, 2014 • By MARK TOOLEY
By contrast, an overture from the Presbytery of San Francisco urges the church's pensions board to divest from Caterpillar, Hewlett-Packard, and Motorola Solutions until they are "no longer complicit in ... and profiting from the relentless, five decade long, military occupation of the Palestinian territories."
Presbyterians have been debating anti-Israel divestment for over a decade. A decisive defeat this June—perhaps thanks to the rhetorical overreach of "Zionism Unsettled"—might finally put the effort to rest. Even so, animus against Israel would persist among many church activists, who, for somewhat mysterious reasons, see Israel, uniquely in the world, as deserving the church's disdain.
Mark Tooley, president of the Institute on Religion and Democracy, is the author of Methodism and Politics in the Twentieth Century.

Patillan, Echauz boost bid for Youth Olympics
He won, quite literally, by just a couple of steps.
Jimuel Patillan edged Justin Liam Chiongbian by a fraction of a second to capture the 2013 National Age Group Triathlon Series championship at Dungaree Beach in Subic recently.
The 15-year-old Olongapo bet ruled with a time of 55 minutes and 12.32 seconds in the 500m swim-20K bike-2.5-K run race that saw Chiongbian challenging the early leader in the final 200m stretch.
"I was not expecting a tight race," Patillan, a member of the national pool, said in Filipino. "I was really hoping to leave my rivals in the run leg but it did not happen."
Chiongbian—who also fell short against Patillan in the Batang Pinoy National Finals last December—checked in less than a second later at 55:12:79 to settle for runner-up honors.
Magali Bernasconi Echauz, though, ran away with the women's crown with a time of 1:01:25.
The race serves as one of the local qualifying tournaments for next year's Youth Olympic Games qualifier in Nanjing, China, thus boosting Patillan and Echauz's chances to earn a slot.
"I will have to train harder if I want to represent the country in the YOG qualifier," said Patillan.
Ranque rounded up the podium finishers in the men's side at 55:37.00, while Victoria Deldio posted a time of 1:02:22 and Jessica Salazar had a 1:08:05 clocking to finish in the top three.
"I still have to finish strong in the other qualifying races," said the 15-year- old Echauz.
The third YOG qualifying race is set in April in Alabang. Jasmine W. Payo

Swedish Crime Fiction
Monday, January 09, 2012
Swedish crime thriller writers Arne Dahl, Anders Roslund, and Borge Hellstrom discuss their work and the specific culture of Scandinavian mystery writing. Dahl talks about Misterioso, the first novel in his Intercrime series, which follows Detective Paul Hjelm in the suburbs of Stockholm. Roslund and Hellstrom, are the authors of Three Seconds and Cell 8, both about Detective Superintendent Ewert Grens.
Guests:Arne Dahl, Borge Hellstrom and Anders Roslund
Comments [1]
while in the copenhagen Nat'l. museum a few yrs. ago I was shocked to see all the personal weaponry on view, swords and hammers that everyone seemed to carry in the Viking era and afterward. also on view was a bog-mummy which i believe represented a human sacrifice from the 17th Cent.
Q: do these writers look to this violent past as part of a Scandinavian history that is generally ignored is what are now very orderly and civilized societies?

Tom Daley may spend most of his time in a swimming pool but clearly he can't bear to be out of the water- even when on holiday in Spain.
Tom Daley looked hot in the rain on holiday. [Copyright: Twitter/Tom Daley]
The talented diver, who is set to make an appearance on the X Factor later this year, tweeted a topless snap (cheeky) of him on holiday weathering a storm on his sun lounger.
[Related story: Tom Daley set to join the X Factor]
[Related story: Tom Daley gets straight As in his A-Levels]
The fittie tweeted the snap posting: "A touch of rain bathing from yesterday's storm!!"
The next time it rains we're praying for Tom to pop out in his trunks and turn things into a rain bathing day…
Tom show us the storm cloud on Twitter too. [Copyright: Twitter/Tom Daley]
And we'd like a warning like this one too… Tom shared another snap, (also topless) of him pointing to a storm cloud coming his way.
He wrote: "The calm before the storm ;)"
The 18-year-old is clearly enjoying a well-earned rest, as he soaks up the rays with his family, he also tweeted a snap of him with his arm around his younger brother, Ben.
Tom also shared this sweet snap with his brother. [Copyright: Twitter/Tom Daley]
And if you want more of Tom you won't have to wait too long… it's thought his slot during the X Factor Olympics special show won't be a one off.
The Sun report it's rumoured the diver will get involved in all of the live shows in some capacity — we can't wait to see what that will be!

Shell: Price discrepancies indicate oil smuggling on the rise
popular .
Oil smuggling reared its ugly head last year as Shell Companies in the Philippines noted discrepancies in its computations and the actual retail prices.
"There was a movement last year. Toward the end of the second quarter and then third quarter of 2013, smuggling came back. We suspect that people were anticipating the revamp [at the Bureau of Customs]," said Shell country manager Edgar O. Chua. "Our sales fell and the retail prices fell. But if you compute it, and you compute the supposed landed cost, you'll see that some players are selling at much lower prices. That's because they don't have the 12-percent value added tax."
Chua expressed optimism on the BOC, now under a new leadership. But he urged the government to continue to pursue changes in systems and procedures.
It is estimated that the government foregoes revenues of up to P60 billion a year due to oil smuggling.
Also, Shell said work on its much awaited initial public offering (IPO) would start once the company makes its final investment decision (FID) for the upgrade of its refinery in Tabangao, Batangas.
Chua said that the company hopes to secure in two to three months' time the approval of parent firm Royal Dutch Shell Plc. for the P6-billion planned investment to upgrade its refinery, which has the capacity to turn out 110,000 barrels a day. The upgrade will allow Pilipinas Shell to meet the more stringent quality specifications for Euro IV fuels in the near future.
"Assuming that we already have the FID, we will start working on the IPO. As to when we will do that will depend on market conditions. We will push through with the public offering because we have to comply with the law," Chua said.
The company is pushing for the refinery upgrade to ensure the country's energy supply and security, Chua said. It will also benefit the country in terms of technology transfer and job generation.

"But what is the good of friendship if one cannot say exactly what one means?

Simi Valley moves closer to postseason by picking apart T.O.
Goal in reach
Simi Valley High quarterback Jake Maranto could only draw one conclusion.
"It's all about hard work paying off," he said. "I keep coming back to that. There were seasons when we were getting our heads beaten in. Let's be honest. It seemed like everybody pulled together with hard work, and now we're so close to having our goals come true."
Then, with a smile, he added: "Of course it doesn't hurt to have a defense like we've got, and tonight they come up with five picks."
A dominating defense and an efficient offense placed the Simi Valley football team on the brink of its first playoff berth in 19 seasons Friday night.
The Pioneers racked up five interceptions — including two returned for scores by Stratton Wolf and Reece Schmidt — notched five sacks and forced one safety, and Maranto threw a pair of touchdowns in the first half as host Simi Valley rolled up a 33-9 victory over Thousand Oaks in their key Marmonte League matchup at Simi Valley.
With the victory, Simi Valley takes over fourth place in league at 5-3 (6-3 overall) and moves within one victory of clinching a guaranteed playoff berth. The program's last playoff spot came in 1992.
"It's an awesome feeling," said Wolf, a senior middle linebacker. "To see this excitement on our team, and at this school is a long time coming. Thousand Oaks is a good team, but we were ready to play tonight."
For Thousand Oaks, the loss marked a disappointing end to a tragic week. Griffen Kramer, a senior and backup quarterback, was found dead at a friend's home last Sunday night.
"No excuses," said Thousand Oaks coach Mike Leibin, whose team falls to 4-4 in league and 5-4 overall. "They (the Pioneers) played harder than us, and they deserved to win. They outplayed us in every area."
Simi Valley led after one half, 14-3, then broke open the game in the second half with big plays on defense.
Wolf's 22-yard interception return for a score opened up a 21-3 lead with 5:02 remaining in the third period. Reece's 35-yard interception and touchdown return with 6:55 left in the fourth quarter iced the win at 33-9.
For good measure, Tanner Geiger's pressure on Thousand Oaks quarterback Clark Abourisk led to an intentional-grounding call that was ruled a safety with 8:44 left in the final quarter.
Thousand Oaks, which entered the game averaging 26.4 points per game, was limited to 210 yards in offense and two scores.
"They have a very balanced offense, so we had to take away their run to start," said Schmidt, who had two interceptions "If we could force them to throw, we knew our defensive line could put on the pressure. "
Schmidt's first interception in the opening half led to Simi Valley's first score, and turned the momentum in the Pioneers' favor.
"I'm not sure (Abourisk) saw me," he said. "I just jumped the route and the ball was there."
Maranto finished 24 of 41 for 178 yards. Jordan Thiel led the Pioneers with seven catches for 51 yards, including a 12-yard scoring pass.
Abourisk was 19 of 39 for 175 yards, one touchdown and five interceptions. Nathan DeBeikes rushed for 39 yards on 14 carries.
A strong effort by Simi Valley's defense sparked the Pioneers to a 14-3 lead at halftime.
The Pioneers limited Thousand Oaks to 70 yards, six first downs and a single score. The three points came on a 30-yard kick by Jamie Sutcliffe as time expired in the half.
Simi Valley also notched a pair of sacks, both by Tanner Geiger, and picked up an interception by Schmidt that set up the Pioneers first score.
Reece's interception midway through the first quarter set up Simi Valley with a first and 10 at the Thousand Oaks 17.
Just two plays later, Maranto connected with Thiel on an inside screen that scored the touchdown from 12 yards out with 6:09 left in the first period.
Simi Valley's second score came on its last possession of the half.
The Pioneers drove 59 yards in nine plays, culminating in Maranto's 7-yard scoring pass to Matt Cervantes with 38 seconds remaining in the half.
Maranto ran in the two-point conversion for a 14-0 lead.

Again after ejaculation in side the vaginal the semen could go at the middle of penis for some cases, right? So I won't confuse any more about what I saw the vaginal fluid or semen inside my condom. It was just the semen, right?
Thank you so much, I am very appreciated about your reply..GailView Thread
I still think so much about that time...if my penis still strong why my semen was at the middle of my penis it should be at the tip of condom...or it could be the vaginal fluid in side..... I am so stress during waiting until 3 months mark for test.
I know your consultation is very nice but it may be from my anxiety...
Thanks againView Thread
I did not ejaculate a bit, a lot of semen I noted..that the tip of condom could not store all so I worry it might go came out side through the top of condom...if that can HIV in vaginal fluid swim through my semen to my urethra?
and can HIV infect through the urethra without any breaking skin?
Thanks for your consultation and your suggestion.View Thread

From the article: Backwards Pregnancy Calculator
Figuring out when you conceived might be a novelty or it might mean a difference that is huge in your life. It's relatively simple to calculate, you just need to know a few things, like a due date.
So gather up your due date and calculate your conception window. Is it what you expected? Did you conceive when you thought you did? Did you ovulate on time?

Burial Ground Goes Green
By STEVEN G VEGH
By Steven G. Vegh
The Virginian-Pilot
On a finger of lakeside forest at Makemie Woods, a Presbyterian camp, stout birch and oak trees stretch heavenward, trunks tied with blue ribbon.
At their base, decaying leaves and twigs return to the Earth. Soon, so will human ashes.
On Oct. 5, the grove will be consecrated as an Eco-Eternity memorial forest, an environmentally friendly burial ground for cremated remains. Over the coming years, up to 15 biodegradable urns could be interred in a ring around each of the ribbon-bound trees.
"We talk about ashes to ashes, dust to dust: In that sense, you're creating a living memorial, you're fertilizing a tree," said the Rev. Michelle "Mike" Burcher, the camp's director.
The memorial wood is the third created in a year by EcoEternity Forest, a Virginia-based private venture, in collaboration with a church-owned camp.
Makemie Woods, located outside Williamsburg, is owned by the Presbytery of Eastern Virginia, which encompasses 62 churches, including more than three dozen in South Hampton Roads.
Jack Lowe, EcoEternity's co-owner, said religiously-hosted memorial forests revive in a novel form the old church ministry of providing a burial ground. Most city and suburban churches can no longer find or acquire land for a cemetery, he said.
EcoEternity customers who come to Makemie can choose from 150 trees – including hickory, oak and beech – in two waterside sites.
Options range from leasing a site under a "community" tree, where the deceased have no connection to one another, to leasing an entire tree just for members of one's own family. A church also can lease a tree for its members.
Each site is mapped to help visitors find their loved one's location. Each burial site also comes with a 99-year lease between the customer and Makemie that protects the woods from development.
No headstones are permitted, but each tree bears a plaque listing the names of people buried at its base.
Fees range from around $600 for a community tree interment to $4,500 for exclusive rights to a single tree, Lowe said. EcoEternity charges an additional site opening and closing fee from $175 to $250.
The fees are divided between the camp and Lowe's business.
"I'm not embarrassed to say we'll get some much needed income that will help out other camp programs" and preserve the woods, Burcher said.
While the total interment cost can be far less than a traditional funeral and cemetery burial, Lowe said, expense is not the first thing his clients mention.
"Invariably, they are ecology-minded people," he said. Customers have cited a love of nature, an urge to conserve the Earth, or said, " 'I want to be there because it's so peaceful.' "
Such c lients are one reason part of the funeral and cemetery industry is going green, said Thomas A. Parmalee, executive editor of American Funeral Director magazine.
Some green cemeteries, he said, are abandoning cement grave vaults, offering biodegradable caskets and skipping embalming with toxic chemicals.
"A lot of the funeral industry is partially reluctant to go into green burial," Parmalee added. "Depending on who you ask, typically it does not earn them as much money as a funeral with a vault and embalming."
The green movement is strong enough, however, that Parmalee's magazine is offering the Green Funeral Service Desk Reference, a 100- plus page guidebook on the eco-funeral and burial trend.
EcoEternity, which buries only ashes, not bodies, seems poised to ride the nationwide rise in cremation.
Cremation followed 32 percent of deaths in the United States in 2005, up from 6 percent in 1975, and will rise to 57 percent by 2025, according to the Cremation Association of North America Web site.
Human ashes are sometimes interred in cemeteries, mausoleums or columbariums. A common alternative is scattering ashes in a place of special beauty or meaning for the deceased.
But cremains often occupy a netherworld of urns perched on fireplace mantles or bookshelves as family survivors endlessly ponder a final resting place.
"I had my husband's ashes here for 10 years, I guess," said Carol Sawtell, a retired medical records administrator in Reston . "I didn't know what to do with them."
She then read about the EcoEternity Forest in Northern Virginia at the Methodists' Camp Highroad.
She thought of the Douglas firs that rose behind her childhood house in the Pacific Northwest. She thought about her husband's love of trees and his outdoorsman's past.
"I thought about it quite a while and decided, 'What the heck! I'll be buried there, too,' and bought a tree and took my husband's ashes out there," she said.
"I think he would have liked that," she said of the forest interment. "The idea we're nurturing the trees, I like that idea."
EcoEternity clients can plan their own interment ceremony, from elaborate to no ceremony at all.
At Highroads, camp director Rick Dawson said some families have brought clergy, while others have held simple remembrances with friends.
Some clients wait for Mother Nature's splendor.
"I get questions like, 'When do you think the dogwoods will be in bloom?' or, 'When will the leaves be in top color in the fall?' " Lowe said. "If you're not pressed for time, why not choose a nice day?"
That kind of day is easy to find at Makemie Woods' memorial forest, Burcher said on the wooded point.
"You can sit there, and within an hour, you'll see egrets, geese, red hawks," she said. "It's a beautiful spot."

about the forest
The EcoEternity Forest leases treeside cremains burial sites for 99 years at Makemie Woods. Each tree is expected to live at least 100 years. The forest is open to people regardless of faith .
If a tree dies or is destroyed, clients can choose to shift the grave marker to a comparable tree, a nearby tree or have a new sapling planted close to the site of the old tree.

I found a BikeMaster flywheel puller, "Honda Puller MP11" is probably the correct one. Both rotor's have Denso printed on the side. Hence my confidence a Honda puller is right. about $18 at my local new/used motorcycle parts place, Bent Bike. Its nothing more than big 22mm 1.5 bolt with a square flat end. a nice bolt would probably work too, if that can be found.
I bought a 8mm 1.25 50mm bolt to use as a TDC locking bolt. BUT, the hex headed bolt head runs into the case before the pointy end solidly locks the crankshaft. There's slot cut into the crank for the bolt to squish into, when i can't turn the bolt anymore I still get some wiggle on the crank. tomorrow I'll get an allen head that will be smaller in diameter.
And I can try and locate some Loctite 648
It's used on the tapered end of the crankshaft and the big screw threads. that's why heat is needed to break things apart. The stator screws use blue loctite. the cover screws don't use any, but they have a weird torque pattern, not what I'd guess, maybe that's why mine leaked.
More pictures when some real progress falls on my head. bobo
When I replaced my cam chain tensioner I was able to turn the bike over without removing the plugs by putting the bike in center stand in 6th gear then lying on floor and rotating the back wheel slowly with my foot while peering into the TDC hole to find the slot in the crankshaft web. .... an assistant would have made this much easier but the neighborhood was empty at the time....
M22 is an "odd" size ... somebody may carry it, but let us know if the Honda puller works!
The locktite 648 explains the heat - THANKS!
And yeah... apparently the order of tightening the side cover bolts is REALLY important ... important on the clutch side also...
Best of luck!

Over one lakh voters exercised their franchise in the elections held to the 46 cooperative societies here on Thursday.
Of the 49 societies in three revenue divisions – Mahabubabad, Narasampet and Mulug, there was unanimous election in three societies while 46 societies went for polling on Thursday.
Of the total 635 posts of directors to the societies, 83 were elected unopposed while elections were held to 552 posts, for which 1,650 candidates contested. According to the claims of political parties, the Congress bagged 20, TDP got eight, TRS got two and BJP bagged one, while the counting was still going at 10 societies when the last reports came in.
Staff Reporter adds: District Collector Christina Z. Chongthu said that in the first phase of elections, everything went off peacefully in the 61 Primary Agricultural Cooperative Societies (PACS) and elections were held for 561 territorial constituencies in 61 PACS limits. An average of 85 per cent of voters cast their votes in the district.
Earlier in the day, she visited Borgam, Badsi and Mopal and observed the counting process.
She also visited the polling booths at some villages in Nandipet, Navipet, Yedapally mandals and also at Makloor mandal headquarters and inspected the voting situation from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. She checked whether the election staff was in possession of the lists of voters identified by the Election Commission.
If the authorities were found to not have the lists, she questioned as to what means they were using to allow voters to cast their votes. She strictly warned the election staff not to allow any voter coming after 2 p.m.
Staff Reporter writes: The first phase of the cooperative elections was held peacefully in Medak district with no major untoward incident taking place.
At Toopran the polling was delayed by about 30 minutes as supporters of Congress and TDP clashed with each other. Later, the polling resumed with police intervention.
Polling at Chandampet in Chinnashankarampet mandal commenced with a one-hour delay as some of the polling staff reportedly arrived in the morning instead of the previous night.
Correspondent adds: In the elections to 43 cooperative societies under the first phase, 16 emerged as hung while the ruling Congress party bagged 11 societies.
YSRC won nine societies and Telugu Desam won six while TRS managed to win just one society. They said that out of 1,26,657 voters, over 85,000 exercised their franchise, which recorded at 79.34 poll per cent.
Staff Reporter writes: The Congress party had a sway during the first phase of cooperative elections held in the district by winning majority of the director posts and making way to snatch at least 40 primary agricultural cooperative societies (PACS) in Karimnagar district on Thursday.
The polling for the election of directors for PACS was held from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. and the counting started immediately. Though elections should have been held for 72 societies, positions for eight societies were elected unanimously and authorities conducted elections to 64 societies on Thursday.
TRS won 14 societies, TDP and YSRC four societies each, while BJP, CPI one society each in the elections.

Not sure how many fans are familiar with this player. Came out of junior college last season in the draft and it has been well documented that he missed the rest of the season due to a shark bite.
He has been an organizational shocker, not so much for numbers but for stuff (though his numbers are good). He has been 92-96 with his fastball, good command. One scout told me that if he was coming out in the 2011 draft, he would be taken in the range of rounds 3-5.
Check out his numbers. He came out of nowhere and when they needed to bump a guy up from extended, he got the nod, and he has not let anyone down. I expect him to become a starter at some point (after Smith and Renken move up).

10 Things Waka Flocka Could Do With His Life Now That He's Accepted That Rapping Ain't It- By Bossip Staff Categories: Congratulations, For Your Viewing Pleasure, Get Your Life Together
Yesterday, the great urban poet Waka Flocka Flame made the most sense he has made in his entire career.
He went on to explain how the phony n-words in the industry and the hectic-ness of his life drove him to his decision.
And his mommy backed him up.
Waka's mom and manager, Debra Antney, tells RumorFix exclusively, "He talking about quitting. He's sick of this. We all are."
Debra, who is the Kris Jenner of the rap world, tells us, "We're all disgusted with this stuff. You can't trust people."
She says Waka isn't touring or recording right now and that they are reestablishing their relationship as mom and son — as opposed to manager and musician.
Far be it for us to try to stand in between Flocka and his happiness. As a matter of fact, we have a couple of suggestions for him on what to try next.

Aconitum x cammarum Stainless Steel
Spires of hooded steel-blue blooms on sturdy stems rise from mounds of finely cut gray-green leaves. The flowers offer a cool contrast to hot-colored members of the Daisy clan. Tolerates partial shade, which it requires in warm regions. Deer resistant.
The genus Aconitum includes many stunningly beautiful varieties whose shapely late-summer flowers and handsome, deeply cut foliage can carry a border through the dog days until Chrysanthemums come into flower. Aconitums thrive on good soil and do as well in light shade as in sun. They need reliable moisture during droughty spells and will perish where water stands, but otherwise seem willing to prosper for many years with minimal attention. All parts are very poisonous and should not be planted near vegetables or where children play. For more information on growing and care, click on Growing Guide.

Report No. CI 98-8 COMPLIANCE AND INFORMATION ACTION May 5, 1998
The station's illegal broadcasts were interfering with the operations of licensed station WCHB-FM, on 105.9 FM, in Detroit, Michigan. Investigations by FCC agents led to the location of the transmitter and identity of the station's owners. FCC officials spoke to Mr. Edwin Raices, who admitted owning and operating the station without a license. FCC agents also warned Mr. Raices at that time that continued unlicensed broadcasting could subject the equipment to seizure under federal law. The station was subsequently moved to another location which was also discovered through investigations conducted by the FCC's Detroit Office.
Under federal law, radio stations may operate only upon the issuance of an FCC license covering such equipment. Section 510 of the Communications Act authorizes the federal government to seize radio equipment used in transmissions by unlicensed stations. Unlicensed radio transmissions, in general, can create a danger of interference to important radio communications services. Such illegal transmissions, using equipment of unknown technical integrity, also raise concerns because they frequently operate on channels directly adjacent to those used for sensitive aviation communications and air navigation signals, thereby increasing the potential for harmful interference to these authorized radio operations.

Social innovation
The term "social innovation" is relatively new, but the concept itself is not. There are many examples of social innovation throughout history, from kindergartens to hospices, and from the cooperative movement to microfinance.
What is social innovation?
Social innovations are new ideas (products, services and models) that simultaneously meet social needs (more effectively than alternatives) and create new social relationships or collaborations.
(Open Book of Social Innovation, Murray, Calulier-Grice and Mulgan, March 2010)
These solutions are both social in their ends and in their means. They can take the form of genuine innovations or of improved solutions. In some parts of Europe, the term "social innovation" refers to what the European Commission calls workplace innovation.
What do we do about social innovation?
In coordination with other departments of the European Commission, we foster social innovation in Europe in many ways:
|We help organisations across Europe to connect, learn from each other and share experiences – Social Innovation Europe was launched in March 2011. It is a collaborative hub set up for that purpose, anyone is welcome to register and contribute.
|We organise the European Social Innovation Competition every year to directly support new solutions and raise awareness about social innovation – go to the Competition webpages. Social innovation is also covered by other EU awards such as the RegioStars awards. We also partner with competitions outside, such as the Naples 2.0 – International Social Innovation Competition or the Social Innovation Tournament organised by the European Investment Bank Institute.
|EU funding
|We offer direct funding to support social innovation through the Employment and Social Innovation Programme (EaSI) or Horizon 2020, particularly under the SME Instrument which is also open to social enterprises. Social innovation may also be funded in your country or region under the EU structural and investment funds - Guide to Social Innovation .
|We share information about available financial support, which can be mobilised from public sector organisations, foundations or private investors; main ones are presented in the report Financing social impact. Funding social innovation in Europe [846 KB] issued in February 2012.
|Framework conditions
|We improve the conditions for social innovation and social enterprises in Europe – learn about the latest activities under the Social Business Initiative and sign the Declaration for Social Entrepreneurship produced by the participants in the Strasbourg event on 16-17 January 2014. A mapping of social enterprises' ecosystems in each of the 28 Member States is now available.
|We gather and disseminate evidence about the benefits of social innovation and methodologies for result measurement – see the report Strengthening social innovation in Europe Journey to effective assessment and metrics [2 MB] (2012) and the work on social impact carried out within the Social Business Initiative.
|We support incubation structures for social innovation in Europe – read the conclusions of the workshop [3 MB] organised in March 2012 and get in touch with the two EU-wide networks of incubators put in place in October 2013, Transition and Benisi.
|Scaling up
|We encourage innovators to think big from the beginning and to aim for systemic change in Europe – we explore the issue in Systemic Innovation [712 KB] of December 2012.
