Bridging the Generation Gap in Egypt and the American Workplace

The historical transfer of power in Egypt has seen the departure of an entrenched 82-year-old dictator and a movement toward a democratically elected government where young Egyptians will have a major voice in politics and policies of the future. A major key to a successful transition that will allow Egypt to move forward as a stable, innovative nation lies in respect and understanding between generations.

The same is true with American businesses.

Innovation is the intersection of the past and present that leads to the future. That’s why it is so important that business leaders publicly acknowledge the contribution of each generation, applaud the unique strengths brought to the table by workers of different ages, and encourage everyone to share their viewpoints as a way to make a strong team even stronger.

2 Students Plead Guilty In Georgetown Dorm Bust

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Two college students arrested at Georgetown University for allegedly creating a drug lab in a dorm room have pleaded guilty to manufacturing an illegal and rare drug, a gram of which was found in the room.

Charles Smith and John Perrone pleaded guilty Friday in federal court to manufacturing the drug DMT.

Smith, who was attending Georgetown University, and Perrone, a University of Richmond student, were arrested in October. They have been living at home with their parents in Andover, Mass., since being released following their arrest.

Lawyers for the two men and the government have agreed to recommend that the two men get sentenced to six months of jail, which they would not serve, and instead be put on probation and do community service.
