UK band The Libertines, and co-founding member Pete Doherty's subsequent band Babyshambles, have distributed a large number of their sessions online.
It is at times difficult to ascribe a particular session to one band or the other. The first confusing matter is that the Baby Shambles Sessions predate the band Babyshambles and were produced by The Libertines. Secondly, it took a while for Babyshambles to establish themselves as a concrete band, with Pete Doherty the only constant in the line up. Considering the many fall-outs between Pete and Libertines cohort Carl Barât, it may be difficult to ascertain if a session is done by The Libertines without Carl, Pete Doherty (on his own) or Babyshambles. The vast majority of the research that went into this catalogue of bootlegs was produced as an appendix in the book The Libertines Bound Together by Anthony Thornton and Roger Sargent.
The following list is not exhaustive. Some of the credits may be disputable.
Odessa Studio Recordings
Recorded by: The Libertines
Track listing:
#"Music When The Lights Go out"
#"Hooray for the 21st Century"
#"Love on the Dole"
#"Anything But Love"
#"7 Deadly Frenchmen"
#"(TAG)"
#"France"
#"You're My Waterloo"

Legs 11
Recorded by: The Libertines, September 2000
Legs 11 is a compilation of early demos. It was compiled by Carl Barât. The name 'Legs 11' was chosen by their former manager Banny Pootschi, as the cover featured the crossed legs of Darcey Bussell, the "most famous legs in England".
It was a 'swing' session, with Doherty feigning a Frank Sinatra-esque vocal style. Bassist John Hassall sings on "Sister Sister" in this session.
"Music When The Lights Go Out" features the former Libertines cellist Vicky. Parts of "Hooray for the 21st Century" were later incorporated into "Narcissist".
The drums in this session were not played by Gary Powell (the most prominent Libertines drummer), but by Paul Dufour who was planning an official release of these and other Libertines early sessions but was stopped in his tracks due to legal reasons.

Babyshambles Sessions
Recorded by: The Libertines, May 2003
The Babyshambles Sessions is a set of songs recorded by The Libertines while in New York. The singer and guitarist Carl Barât left before completion of the tapes, which were intended for the second album. Bassist John Hassall also lent a hand, playing the bassline on one song, "The Man Who Would Be King". It is thought that Barat played drums on some tracks. Doherty then gave the tapes to Helen Hsu, a fan, at the Chelsea Hotel in New York. She, at his request (a fact he later denied), made the tracks available to the band's fans over the internet. A 3-CD set of these sessions can also often be found for sale on internet auction sites and can also be downloaded for free at Albion Arks. Several of the tracks that feature on the sessions were later recorded and included on The Libertines' second studio album. A few were also later recorded for Babyshambles Down in Albion, The Blinding EP and their most recent Shotter's Nation.

High-impact entrepreneurship is the work of a High-impact entrepreneur. A high-impact entrepreneur is an entrepreneur who develops a big idea, with an ambitious plan, and turns that idea into a viable business. That business employs hundreds, even thousands of people and generates millions in wages and revenues. A business entrepreneur’s success is typically measured by performance in profit and return, but a high-impact entrepreneur is often recognized additionally by their power to inspire others, revolutionize industries, and change the economy of developing countries. In a The New Yorker article entitled ‘What Microloans Miss,’James Surowiecki says "Business that can generate jobs for others are the best hope of any country trying to put a serious dent in its poverty rate."
History
The term High-impact entrepreneur and High-impact entrepreneurship were first widely used by Endeavor, a non-profit organization working in the field of economic development. It has since been used by Carl Schramm, CEO of the Kauffman Foundation and thought leader on entrepreneurship. (see link ) Endeavor’s focus is on providing support to high-impact entrepreneurs in emerging markets. Linda Rottenberg, CEO, was quoted in The World is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century, by Thomas Friedman. “For us, the leverage in supporting these ‘high-impact’ entrepreneurs comes not only through the direct jobs, but also through a multiplier effect: one high-impact entrepreneur creates hundreds of jobs, inspires thousands of future entrepreneurs, and the cycle continues."
One of the first examples of high-impact entrepreneurship is , started in 1994 by Jerry Yang and David Filo, both Electrical Engineering graduate students at Stanford. It is now one of the leading internet brands and has the most trafficked network on the internet.
Another current example of high-impact entrepreneurship is of Marcos Gasperin and Hernan Kazah, who started Mercado Libre- eBay of Latin America, in 1997. They quickly expanded to nine countries, and in 2006 employed 800 people and generated $52 million in revenues. The Financial Times said “The Argentine-based company bucked the general negative trend in emerging market stocks to exceed its original price offering of $18 per share by more than 50 percent." They were selected as Endeavor Entrepreneurs in 2001.

A. Traviss Corry is a Canadian artist whose works have been classified as abstract expressionist postmodern art. His works draw from multiple cultural traditions and often deal with globalization.
Art Traviss Corry was schooled in fine art and commercial graphic design. His first solo show was age 18. It was at this time that his work began to leave realism.
In his adolecent years Traviss lived amidst cultural communities of the Coast Salish. In his early twenties Traviss began to study and imitate forms and colours of art of the Kwakwak'wakw First Nations of the Pacific Northwest, particularly the contemporary art of the Nuu Chah Nulth.
An interest in eastern philosophy in his late twenties lead him to live in Bangkok and travel throughout Asia on art pilgrimages. Influential explorations included a casual residence in a Theravada Buddhist Monastery in Thailand, and in Wuhan China, studying from Calligraphers each morning at dawn on the banks of the Chang Jiang river. It was at this period that Traviss began using drip brushes that did not touch the canvas. Although he had learned from Chinese Masters, his work more resembled that of Western Expressionists, and his gestural style, is most compared to Jackson Pollock.
On his return to Canada, Traviss' studies and career focused heavily on electronic and social media which influenced his physical artwork greatly. In Traviss Co-created one of the first ever daily produced Video Podcasts, The New Wrinkle, a show covering topics of Art and Global Culture.
Traviss donates work to organizations such as The Camray Auction.
Traviss now lives in Vancouver, Canada. Of late, his art is pushing further from known techniques and materials. His tools are natural elements, sticks, drip brushes, aerosol, and pouring cups.
Art Traviss Corry was schooled in fine art and commercial graphic design. His first solo show was age 18. It was at this time that his work began to leave realism.
In his adolecent years Traviss lived amidst cultural communities of the Coast Salish. In his early twenties Traviss began to study and imitate forms and colours of art of the Kwakwak'wakw First Nations of the Pacific Northwest, particularly the contemporary art of the Nuu Chah Nulth.
An interest in eastern philosophy in his late twenties lead him to live in Bangkok and travel throughout Asia on art pilgrimages. Influential explorations included a casual residence in a Theravada Buddhist Monastery in Thailand, and in Wuhan China, studying from Calligraphers each morning at dawn on the banks of the Chang Jiang river. It was at this period that Traviss began using drip brushes that did not touch the canvas. Although he had learned from Chinese Masters, his work more resembled that of Western Expressionists, and his gestural style, is most compared to Jackson Pollock.
On his return to Canada, Traviss' studies and career focused heavily on electronic and social media which influenced his physical artwork greatly. In Traviss Co-created one of the first ever daily produced Video Podcasts, The New Wrinkle, a show covering topics of Art and Global Culture.
