ATLANTA, GEORGIA USA, JUNE 22, 2013-  United Kingdom based, African Leadership Magazine will present in Atlanta, Georgia USA, a conceptual forum entitled, “The African Exchange and Investment Forum” on Tuesday, June 25, 2013 at the Hyatt Regency on Peachtree Street .

The purpose of the concept is to fuse nations, government leaders and captains of industry while engaging in cultural exchanges of artistic ideas and social responsibilities fused, with flairs of world-class entertainment, while drawing focus to tangible investments.

The African Leadership Magazine, through its Social Responsibility arm, – it’s non-governmental organization known as Centre for Economic and Leadership Development (CELD), currently in special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council, has adopted the SEND A CHILD TO SCHOOL TODAY program to give orphans and vulnerable children the opportunity to achieve their full potential through educational support and assistance. These organizations offer scholarships to indigent orphans and children with disabilities.  Currently, the organization governs 82 Children under its care, in several secondary schools across Nigeria, Liberia, Kenya and Ghana and is totally responsible for their cost of education at the senior secondary level. For the 2013/14 Academic session, CELD’s mission is to adopt 200 additional children across these countries.

The passion to integrate responsive leadership and accountability in tomorrow’s leaders has brought about a world-wide, world-class concept based on real investments- fabric, fashion and cloth/textiles within one forum.

Fabric being an absolute necessity for personnel and home use, automotive industries, businesses, flooring, transportation, fashion designers and world of entertainment, is synonymous with the pure blank slate of cotton or a silk worm, deriving from many different continents to be infused with the talents of an artist to bring the canvas to life.

The discovery of dyed flax fibres in a cave in the Republic of Georgia dates back to 34,000 BCE and suggests textile-like materials were made even in prehistoric times. It is this industries investment endeavor that has, indelibly fused Africa and America’s cotton and textile industries together forever.

It is in this light that the African Leadership Magazine presents a wonderful collaboration of cultural exchange Featuring- Velasquez Production's Fashion Conductor Ms. Sandra Velasquez, in association with - international couture designers:  Ms. Sonia Noel- Guyana, Mr. Matthew Cashe- Trinidad & Tobago and Mr. Laron Harlem, Jr. and Mr. Laron Harlem, Sr. - Atlanta, GA (Colour Me Blind), paired with a perfect fusion of entertainment with the incomparable Sheila Ray Charles, daughter of Georgia’s LEDGENDARY Ray Charles and, the Golden voice of R&B, Mr. Tony Terry, in one gala affair.

These talented artisans will assemble to exchange and demonstrate their cultural gifts as they come together to honor former Governor and, current Senator, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki who, is slated to receive covenanted awards from the Georgia Governors Office, Nathan Deal respectively, Georgia’s Secretary of State and the City of Atlanta, amid a confirmed guest list that reads like a who’s who of top brass African and Georgia dignitaries’.  Dr. Saraki was an elected governor of Kwara State, Nigeria, in 2003 where he served two terms in office and in the April 2011 elections, was elected Senator for Kwara Central.

Senator Dr. Saraki will be celebrated for his works, contributions, dedication and championship towards Health, Agriculture, Education, National Economy and worldwide Environmental issues and policies to which His Excellency Amb Ade Adefuye, Nigeria’s Ambassador to the US, Amb Geoffrey Teneilabe (Consulate General of Nigeria located in Atlanta, GA), Alh Abdulfatah Ahmed (Executive Governor of Kwara state), Sen.

We ARE NOBODY WITHOUT A COMMITTED SOMEBODY.  We therefore are resolved to being a committed “somebody” so that the ‘nobody’s of life can become somebody.”

The Difference between A-list, B-list, C-list and D-list Actors & Celebrities

-
Image
“A-list”  actors are exceptionally successful, their notoriety extends beyond the silver screen, and their name guarantees a box office hit. Some “A-list” actors include: Will Smith, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Angelina Jolie, Meryl Streep, and Johnny Depp. The “A-list” actors are usually made up of male actors as with more high earning positions. “B-list”  actors are usually television actors or less successful movie stars. Some “B-list” actors include: Nicholas Cage, Katherine Heigl, David Morse, Samantha Morton, and Pierce Brosnan. “B-list” actors usually never headline a film by themselves; this means the supporting actors are usually fairly notable too. “C-list”  actor is a character actor that’s known by face and not by name. They are usually still good actors, but they receive less notoriety than an A or B-list actor. “D-list”  actors are the lowest on the celebrity hierarchy; they appear on celebrity game shows and reality television. Celebrity  refers to popular

Take a tour of Tyler Perry's massive new studio on a former Army base in Atlanta, Georgia

Actor, producer and director Tyler Perry at his corporate "Dream Building." According to Perry's website, "Tyler Perry Studios will be a film and entertainment production facility like no other, with a world-class ability to support the artists who create new worlds." Perry — the most successful African American filmmaker in history and the ruler of an entertainment empire of hit movies, TV series and plays — maneuvers the vehicle from a parking lot near the entrance of the historic Ft. McPherson Army base onto a paved road. Suddenly, he veers off into a massive, rolling sea of lush greenery. He passes various sights on the vast, grassy landscape; a white yacht resting on a platform, surrounded on three sides by sheets of greenscreen; large ponds with frolicking geese; a trailer park; a cluster of well-kept brick buildings. No one is around. The only sound is the roar of Perry’s engine.  “For me, this is pure paradise,” Perry says, surveying the view

Etiquette: Unwritten Rules of Movie Theaters You're Probably Breaking

View in Browser:   https://mypublicist.blogspot.com/2017/09/etiquette-unwritten-rules-of-movie.html People have been going to the movies for more than 100 years, but in a world increasingly dominated by the streaming pleasures of Netflix, Amazon, HBO, and more, a trek to the local multiplex has become both more sacred (if you're going to spend the big bucks, you want the experience to be perfect ) and less important. With all the conveniences of streaming, it's easy to forget that when you're in a theater watching a movie, you're  in a theater watching a movie . With other people. Not in your house. In. Public. Temporarily forgetting the real world is fine and all... until you realize you're sitting dead center in the middle of a movie theater surrounded by 99 people who each laid down $50 -- popcorn and soda ain't cheap! -- to take in the evening's entertainment. You can do better. You can avoid  a fistfight over the end credits. How? The Th
