	Politics \| Ben Metcalfe
		Ben Metcalfe, who has died of a heart attack aged 83, was a member both of the committee and the crew.
		Metcalfe went, too, but it proved a personal disaster for him when the fiery McTaggart, who later came to symbolise Greenpeace's style, threw him off the boat for allegedly spinning a story to the New Zealand press that the Vega was a decoy for other protesters.
		Bennett Metcalfe was born in Winnipeg, and came to England at 15.

		Ben was happy to click the noise off and with a decisive nod to himself, he jumped out of the vehicle, quickly moving to the tail gate.
		Ben figured he was less than an hour behind her or the traces of her passage in the stream would have been harder to find.
		Ben knew this area fairly well, having committed the topological maps to memory and walked it several times in the past three years; but he must have misjudged his own position in the dark because he found himself at the cliff long before he expected to.

	Mopsos - Conference or party? The setting must be chosen...
		Apparently Ben was using the backchannel to badmouth the speakers; Loïc Le Meur, as chief moderator of the IRC, showed it on screen; and Mena went ballistic.
		Ben was in the audience, as one of the many bloggers present.
		Whether this event is to be reported in the Economist or in Gala is still to be debated, but in any case, I believe Loïc has been successful in making attendees feel special, and he deserves the credit for that.

	::HorsePigCow:: life uncommon: And then there were 3! Ben Metcalfe officially joins Citizen Agency
		Ben holds a Canadian passport as well as a UK one, so he will be applying for a TN1 the same as me. We have contracts in place, offices, an official business with the official trappings of a business - and now we have one helluva team.
		Ben is a super accomplished, amazingly smart guy with drive and passion and wants all of the same things as we want in the world: a place where independents can prosper and individuals are empowered.
		Ben, who until last month worked for the BBC in London, will be working in the position of “Grassroots Architect & CTO” (or as we refer to it, Citizen Technical Officer).

	:Ben Metcalfe Blog » Blog Archive » Les Blogs: Me + Mena
		I think Ben was rude to make a remark like that which was being presented on screen in front of all - we all have to choose are words but then again she over reacted and contradicted herself so both looked silly.
		Ben’s argument appears to be that Mena wasn’t particularly showing respect towards the character of her audience.
		For her to comment on and respond to Ben’s remarks are one thing (although civility in her response would have gone much further towards furthering her call for civility from others).

	Ben Metcalfe, the Founder of Greenpeace, Dies at 83
		Ben Metcalfe, the Founder of Greenpeace, Dies at 83
		Metcalfe, the first chairman of the Greenpeace Foundation, formed in 1970, combined an unwavering commitment to the environment with the flair of a campaigner for the cause.
		Metcalfe's formal association with Greenpeace ended shortly afterward, and he returned to writing articles and essays, many in support of environmental causes.

	Chronology, the Founding of Greenpeace - Greenpeace History - Resources - RexWeyler.com
		Ben Metcalfe brokered a deal to keep the organization in tact and turn its attention on French nuclear testing in the South Pacific.
		Ben and Dorothy Metcalfe, the Stowes, Bohlens, Hunter, Thurston, Moore, and Keziere went to a Liberal Party brunch, where they confronted Davis and Sharp.
		That spring, Metcalfe recruited David McTaggart, to sail his ketch Vega to Moruroa to protest French nuclear tests, which he did in 1972 and again in 1973 when he was severely beaten by French commandoes.

	Burningbird » Slingshot
		The concensus seems to be that Trott lost it, and Metcalf was cool under fire, especially considering that he was unexpectedly told to stand up during this conference.
		Ben was probably commenting in the IRC facility from the begining until the end of the conference… and getting confronted on his opinions in that context.
		That being said, Mena basically called Metcalfe an asshole from the stage, which is fraught with “context” (the authority figure being before the audience on an elevated platform), which is substantially different from Metcalfe’s comment which was directed at the content of her presentation, not a pejorative directed at the speaker herself.

	Eye Weekly - McTaggart, Metcalfe and me - 05.17.01
		Over the years, despite my initial grievances, I came to understand that "Uncle Ben," as we called him, was actually a media genius, and as an activist, years ahead of his time.
		To listen to Ben tell it, there were over 100 applications in response to the ad he placed in the Auckland newspaper.
		At David's memorial, I found myself thinking how strange and sad it was that Ben Metcalfe was not among those present paying their respects or at least observing the passing of one of our most important peers.

	Jackie Danicki » Of Mena and Metcalfe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Drama bores me these days, but I feel the need to say something about Ben Metcalfe dogging Mena Trott in public, then getting shy about it and claiming he was acting out of ‘compassion’.
		Which I think Ben demonstrated when he stood up, by (1) not repeating “this is bullshit” and (2) asking to take the conversation offline.
		Considering the change in his willingness to be a jerk to Mena once the format swiftly switched from (publicly readable) IRC to a ‘real life’ conversation, at least we can credit him with consistency.

		Ben Metcalfe on Web 2.0 doesn’t work in the mothership, but…
		Ben is hinting at a serendipitous discovery of the bottom-up nature of web 2.0 apps, and how they can wend their way into the enterprise, a project, or a team at a time.
		Enterprises would be better off if their IT departments could move to small, low cost, web-based apps that satisfy local needs -- a project group, one campus in Denver, the marketing department in Japan -- without having to subordinate local needs to corporate controls.

	About Six Apart - Mena’s Corner
		After much thought, I realized that it's not about the personalities involved (neither Ben Metcalfe or I are completely right or wrong) but rather the next steps in making blogging better.
		Certainly neither Ben M. saying "this is bullshit" or my calling him an "asshole" would qualify as "nice" -- the important point is taking accountability for what we say.
		And in fact, Ben M. and I had a private dialog later in the day, where we were able to spend time talking through these issues in a really productive conversation -- including us both apologizing for using such strong words.

	Hugh Macleod Slapped by BBC's Metcalfe \| Threadwatch.org
		Hugh Macleod, darling of the blogosphere, has thrown a little girly tantrum over BBC's Ben Metcalfe pulling him up on his "wine pimping" exploits.
		The upshot is, Hugh is trying to push Wine on his blog, along with Suits, and using every buzzy bloggy word in the book to make it sound like the coolest thing in the world to do, but good for Ben in calling it out for the bollocks it truly is.
		What frustrates Ben about the Stormhoek meme, I suspect, is that it's actually working.
