Enter a different breed of M.B.A.: social entrepreneurs like Priya Haji, 35, Siddharth Sanghvi, 30, and David Guendelman, 28, who last year founded the giftware company World of Good. A for-profit, socially responsible start-up that makes grants to a nonprofit sister organization, World of Good has impressed venture capitalists who usually put their money into the latest technological innovation. But the business plan put forward by the Berkeley M.B.A.s--which won this year's Global Social Venture Competition--has VCs convinced that there's also money to be made from handmade silk scarves, woven bags, beaded jewelry and "nonviolent...

The Chilean press has quoted government officials as saying that it was not DINA agents...
...Bodies. Relatives of Guendelman and Robotham found this official explanation unconvincing. They also claim that the bodies they were shown in the Pilar morgue could not possibly be those of the two students. The corpse identified as Robotham was that of a man nearly three inches shorter, and the alleged remains of Guendelman included part of a hip bone that his mother says had been removed in surgery several years ago. Both students were last seen in Chilean detention centers, and their families fear they died in Chile at the hands of DINA...
