On This Day In History - December 18th
|
1888
Two cowboys, Richard Wetherill and Charlie Mason, are out looking for stray cattle in southwestern Colorado when they spy ruins of ancient dwellings high on a mesa. Wetherill dubs it
Cliff Palace and the name will stick. The former home of Ancestral Puebloans will come to be considered the largest cliff dwelling in North America.
|
1892
The new
two-act ballet, choreographed by
Marius Petipa and
Lev Ivanov, with music by
Pyotr Tchaikovsky gets an ambivalent reaction from critics. But the score will become one of Tchaikovsky's most famous compositions and many ballet companies will rely on 'Nutcracker' ticket sales each Christmas season.
|
1915
Woodrow Wilson, 59, marries a 43-year-old Washington, DC, socialite,
Edith Bolling Galt. Presidential advisors voice concern about the marriage just a year after
Wilson's first wife had died. Wilson will suffer a stroke during his second term, leaving Edith to run many routine affairs of his administration.
|
1957
The
Shippingport Atomic Power Station, in Pennsylvania, is up and running, generating electricity for the first time. The $72 million plant, which is the world's first large-scale nuclear power facility, will supply power to the Pittsburgh area for 25 years until it's retired in 1982.

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 65,595
people, generating 44,903 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.
Among our projects for 2020:
We're asking our government to please stop tax-payer
funding of
those Small Business Development Centers across
the U.S. which
knowingly compete
with tax-paying businesses.
If you are interested, let us know and we will keep you
updated on our progress.
