The Boycott: Arizona Corporations (partial list)

2010-04-25T17:59:00.001-04:00

I've started to do some quick research to find large corporations either headquartered in Arizona, or doing a lot of business in Arizona. Here's a partial list, and I'll be a

dding to it. I began by checking the members of the Arizona Chamber of Commerce and Industry under the assumption that a corporation would join the Arizona Chamber of Commerce only if they did significant business in Arizona.

I'm listing some notable companies below. As is often the case, many of these companies have subsidiaries you might know better (for instance, Suncor Development Company has developed or manages many retail and office properties throughout the West). You should check up on them, and I'll try to fill this out as time goes on. I haven't picked out every member of the Chamber of Commerce; instead, I've focused on those businesses who also do business elsewhere and could be boycotted by people livingoutside the state of Arizona.

The partial list:

Americopy

Bank of America

Boeing

Intel

Sumco (manufacturer of electronics-grade silicon wafers)

US Airways

Wells Fargo Bank

Cox Communications

Pinnacle West Capital Corporation (owners of APS, APS Energy Services, Suncor Development Company, El Dorado Investment Company)

Southwest Gas Corporation

Cancer Treatment Centers of America

Raytheon

Arizona Cardinals

Corrections Corporation of American (not sure how you boycott that, but seemed worth adding.)

Ernst & Young

Goodrich Corporation (defense and aviation contractor)

NAIOP (a national commercial development trade organization)

Pfizer

Service Group of America (owner of Food Services of America, Systems Services of America, Amerifresh, Ameristar Meats, Development Services of America, Event Services of America

Barry Hannah on Plot

2010-04-16T05:01:00.001-04:00

"I go with the more natural flow of the way I feel when I write and the way that life kind of falls out for me. Sometimes things are very explosive, but they don't go toward plot. They are just simply explosive. And, you know, it's just ... you get a BANG. You don't get resolution, you don't get peace, you don't get pacification in any regard. You don't even get extreme unction. It's just there, WOP. And then, life might move on quite differently." -- Barry Hannah (1942-2010), interviewed on Mississippi Public Television, 1984

Day 3: On Fasting

2010-02-19T08:39:00.001-05:00

From the Book of the Prophet Isaiah:

"Is this the manner of fasting I wish, of keeping a day of penance: That a man bow his head like a reed and lie in sackcloth and ashes? Do you call this a fast, a day acceptable to the Lord? This, rather, is the fasting that I wish: Releasing those bound unjustly, untying the thongs of the yoke; Setting free the oppressed, breaking every yoke; Sharing your bread with the hungry, sheltering the oppressed and the homeless; Clothing the naked when you see them, and not turning your back on your own. Then your light shall break forth like the dawn, and your wound shall quickly be healed; Your vindication shall go before you, and the glory of the Lord shall be your rearguard."
