United States
Gen. George Washington gathers his men at a tavern in New York City to announce he's retiring and plans to return to

president of the US.

1945
Senate approves US participation in the UN
The Senate votes 65-7 to allow the United States to participate in the newly formed
United Nations. The international organization, to be headquartered in New York City, aims to foster cooperation among nations, settle disputes peacefully to prevent wars, and establish wartime rules of conduct.
|
1956
Rockabilly hit-maker Carl Perkins is recording at the Sun Record Studios
when he's joined by up-and-comer pianist Jerry Lee Lewis. Later, stars
Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash drop by, and the four musicians begin
an
impromptu jam session. The first recordings of the session won't be released for another 25 years.
|
1991
Islamic militants free
Anderson after nearly seven years of captivity in dismal conditions in Beirut. He is the last and longest-held Western hostage in Lebanon. After his release, Anderson will meet his child, born after his abduction, and win a multimillion-dollar settlement against Iran.

Since 1983!
|
A not-for-profit cooperative association of independent businesses, founded from an economic development research project on the importance of small business development conducted by the Houston Chamber of Commerce in the late 1970's.
With our first Co-Op meeting held March 14, 1983, to date we've worked with 65,592
people, generating 44,881 tips, leads, referrals and items of new business, generating revenues exceeding one billion dollars, founded the Entrepreneurial Development Center - Houston's first and Texas' oldest small business incubator and co-working space, First Houston Small Business Seed Capital Fund - literally the first small business seed capital fund in Houston, the Womens Business Center - first business incubator for women business owners in the country with residency space and the Virtual Business Center - the first remote business incubator in the world - all totally without public funding, grants, gifts, donations or contributions.
Our Entrepreneurial Research Division conclusively demonstrated "entrepreneurship" could be taught in a classroom environment, resulting in colleges and universities, globally,
commencing entrepreneurial courses.
Here are some of the organizations we've worked with.
We grow companies, build careers and advance ideas.
