Now i was actually gonna wait until my excursion from overseas to post this blog, but numerous research and reading has gotten me interested in the subject. It's titled the U-Curve theory. Destined to experience this phenomenon, it's related to the subject of culture shock, once you've chartered the destination of a different culture. I was told that once you experience a different culture, you go through the process of adaptation and relation. In the U-Curve theory, you start off excited about the trip to a different country/ culture. But that excitement soon diminishes due to home sickness and lack of knowledge of other cultures. Below is a link that explains in more in depth details the range of culture shock and adaptation of new scenery for individuals who pursue the voyage.
For those who follow or stumble across my blog, I apologize for my sabbatical from not updating you on current events. Reason being is because I've been doing a little extra traveling, and focusing on school, but looking forward to relinquish some new things that could benefit a lot of people. Along with some places I've visited these past couple months. Plenty of new venues to check out, books to recommend, and events and festivities to check out in the near future. So more post/ articles will be coming soon, and I appreciate the patients.
If you haven't seen (1987) movie Wall Street with Michael Douglas, and Charlie Sheen, please go to whatever free movie site you know of and watch it. Plot: Bud Fox is a Wall Street stockbroker in early 1980's "New York with a strong desire to get to the top. Working for his firm during the day, he spends his spare time working an on angle with the high-powered, extremely successful (but ruthless and greedy) broker Gordon Gekko. Fox finally meets with Gekko, who takes the youth under his wing and explains his philosophy that "Greed is Good". Taking the advice and working closely with Gekko, Fox soon finds himself swept into a world of "yuppies", shady business deals, the "good life", fast money, and fast women; something which is at odds with his family including his estranged father and the blue-collared way Fox was brought up. Bud Fox is an ambitious stock trader who will do just about anything to get into the big leagues. He has been actively courting Gordon Gekko, one of the biggest stock speculators on Wall Street. Gekko manipulates the market using inside information and his motto best describes his approach: greed is good. Nothing will stop him from pursuing a good deal and he takes advantage of Bud's burning to desire to succeed. Soon, Bud finds himself getting information from any source and using to gain an advantage. It all comes to a head however when Gekko targets Blue Star airlines, the company where Bud's father has worked for 24 years, secretly planning to break it up and plunder the employees' retirement fund" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094291/plotsummary
Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (sequel) Gekko is released from prison and back to business as usual, but now instead of Charlie Sheen being the eager guy seeking entry into the world of stock brokers; Shia LaBeouf will be the new guy. Below is the trailer of Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
Obama, in a clear attempt to get in good with the ole Fix, had a string of kind words for the Georgetown Hoyas. "I think they're getting better," Obama said of the team "Coach John, Thompson III does a good job and I am feeling pretty good about Georgetown making a little run." Us too! Obama picked the Hoyas to lose to Kansas in the Elite Eight with Kansas State, Kentucky and Villanova rounding out the Final Four. His championship game is between Kentucky and Kansas with the Jayhawks emerging as the champions.

At times, it irritates me to hear individuals from all over the country tarnish the great City of Detroit. Not only those who live outside the city, as well as the state, but natives to the area. In recent news, Larry Alexander; President of the Detroit Conference & Association bureau accomplished something of monumental proportions. Recently proposed a bid to get the American Society of Association Executives to establish a conference in the city of Detroit. What does this mean for you? This means a surplus of economic growth for the City of Detroit, $2.8 BILLION to be accurate. This will not only stimulate Detroit's economy but provide jobs for individuals who are in need of employment. Estimated of +1000 job opportunities, ranging from hospitality industries, event coordinators, promotion, real estate investment, along with many other profit business ventures. Now to more explain the ASAE and how it will bring revenue to the City of Detroit. This conference is deemed as the Super Bowl of all leadership conferences. Some of the powerful leaders in business, CEO and partners of major corporations gather at these conventions to better their companies to it's best potentials. 3,500 CEO's will be at this conference, along with their teams of colleagues. So if I'm crunching the number right, your looking at +7000 plus of CEO's and Associates. Investor will need to book events, hotels are getting ready now for the conference and looking to hire a double in staff. So for those who are business owners with venues, I would prepare for the festivities that will be occurring.
