Sheldon Adelson was born in Boston, Massachusetts, in 1933 and became an entrepreneur at an early age. He created several very successful businesses, and in the 1970s developed the computer trade show COMDEX. He went on to build casino resorts in Las Vegas and Asia, and later ventured into politics, generously supporting Republican causes and candidates.
"I look at every business and ask, 'How long can this last? How can I identify the status quo and change it?'"
"For me, businesses are like buses. You stand on a corner and you don't like where the first bus is going? Wait 10 minutes and take another. Don't like that one? They'll just keep coming. There's no end to buses or businesses."
Early Career
The story of Sheldon Gary Adelson, born in the poor Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, in 1933, is a classic American rags-to-riches story. Sheldon's father drove a taxicab and sold advertisements, and his mother ran a small knitting store. Sheldon start working at a young age selling newspapers, and by age 12 he owned his first business, selling toiletries.
In the early 1950s, he entered City College of New York, majoring in corporate finance, but dropped out after less than two years. He joined the U.S. Army and started working as a court stenographer on Wall Street, where he set his sights on making his fortune. After leaving the Army, he worked as a mortgage broker and investment adviser and soon made his first fortune. In the early 1960s, he moved back to Boston and invested in various companies, among them a travel and tour business, The American International Travel Service, which was very profitable. However, his success turned sour in a stock market decline in the late 1960s.
In the early 1970s, Adelson rebounded in the real estate brokerage business in Boston, arranging condominium conversions, and did well for a time until the condo market took a dive. Scrambling to find a lifeline, he caught a big break when he bought a company that published magazines, among them Data Communications User, a computer magazine. After attending a condo trade convention, he learned that the producer was a condo magazine publisher. Adelson believed the same effort could be made for the computer business and started a trade show for the computer industry.
With the modest success of his first show in 1973, Sheldon Adelson could see he was onto something. He sold his condominium holdings and the publishing company, but held on to the trade show business, launching the Interface Group and concentrating on the computer show. The company grew slowly, garnering only $250,000 in its first year of operation. Around this time, Adelson met his first wife, Sandra, and in time they adopted three children. They divorced in 1988.
In 1979, Sheldon Adelson created the Computer Dealers Expo, or COMDEX, and held the show at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada. His timing was perfect, as the personal computer industry was just taking off. As brands such as IBM, Apple and Microsoft began their rapid growth, Adelson's trade show was there to present their products to consumers and to other companies. By 1987, COMDEX had grossed $20 million and become the largest trade show in Las Vegas. By the end of the decade, the Interface Group had reached a net income of $250 million and expanded COMDEX shows into other countries.

This isn't rocket science, spaul. You get more affordable college the same way you get anything else. First, you identify it as a priority, which Michigan clearly hasn't. Then you figure out how to make it so – in this case more state investment coupled with less or better focused spending by colleges and universities. What's so hard?

I disagree, Ezduzzit. I know the hospital has a financial stake in better road access to it, but if extending a road helps Genesys dramatically expand I think it's a no-brainer. Progress in the 'burbs doesn't preclude or diminish efforts to fix or stimulate Flint. On the contrary, in fact.

I do suspect this is one of those "in an ideal world" ideas that sound good in theory but don't work in reality. Kind of like the idea that America will somehow be a utopia once nobody pays taxes and we're all walking to work on goat paths and home-schooling our kids.

The thing is in good shape. Once again I'm not 100 percent sure I'm selling but I just want to see what kind of offers you have before I try craigalist or something like that. I know all of you probably have one but it could make a good present for a friend or someone else.

In-Flight Wi-Fi to Grow Over 600 Percent by 2015
CREDIT: Dreamstime |
Travelers are increasingly expected to take advantage of in-flight Wi-Fi connectivity in the coming years as more airlines begin offering the service. In fact, a new report from market research firm In-Stat News found that in-flight Wi-Fi revenue is expected to grow from about $225 million in 2011 to over$1.5 billion in 2015.
"While airlines initially viewed in-flight broadband as a competitive differentiator, it is now simply viewed in the U.S. market as a competitive requirement," said Amy Cravens, In-Stat senior analyst. "The future of in-flight Wi-Fi will be less about convincing airlines of the merit and more about leveraging the network to provide a broader breadth of services."
The report also found that smartphones and tablets are the devices predominantly used on flights to connect to the Internet.
Similar to the hot spot market, Wi-Fi access is likely to become a commodity in the in-flight market, with the revenue opportunity resting on the services and features, not the connection, Cravens added.
The report also noted that in-flight connectivity is becoming more popular in international markets. In-Stat believes it will rapidly transition to a competitive requirement in these markets as it did in the United States.
Virgin America recently announced that it will be expanding its in-flight Internet to its seat-back displays so users can get online using the built-in entertainment system. Meanwhile, Delta said earlier this month that it will be the first airline to expand its Wi-Fi service to regional jets.

Architect John Blair made heavy use of plastered stonewalls and stained cedar weatherboards in designing the home, which has four bedrooms and occupies 550 square meters.
'It's contemporary but still [uses] classic stone and timber from the local surrounds,' says Nick Horton of Luxury Real Estate New Zealand, who is the property's listing agent.
The interior design is more cosmopolitan. Most of the furnishings came from France and many of them, such as the light fittings, were inspired by the work of Paris designer Christian Liaigre.
All of the rooms have a view of Coronet Peak, a nearby ski field. The home, which comes with a freehold title over about 2.01 hectares of land, shares a driveway with two other properties. It is a 12-minute drive from Queenstown Airport.
The master bedroom takes up its own wing. Two other guest rooms occupy a separate wing, and a fourth is located in the attic of the garage annex, which is connected to the house by a glass passageway.
One highlight of the home is the dining and entertainment space, Mr. Horton says. The dining-room walls are intentionally higher than others in the house to display the owner's artwork. Doors open to a courtyard with an outdoor fireplace for al-fresco dining.
Queenstown, one of New Zealand's tourism gems, draws travelers seeking skydiving, whitewater rafting and other adventure sports. The dining area looks across the Pinot Gris vineyards and Lake Hayes. The home's price is available on inquiry.
