PUBLISHER’S VIBE

COULD YOUR BUSINESS BE FAILING BECAUSE OF

YOU?

Clive Williams, CEO/ Publisher _________________________

T

his topic may appear to many of my learned and hyper informed readers, as somewhat of an over-simplification of a complex subject. If, for example you are a graduate student in business management or, for that matter, a seasoned business owner or entrepreneur, you might want to take issue with my premise. Please feel free to offer a rebuttal, but I assure you that my compelling argument defies your conventional notion of the “business activity” as it plays out in real life. Whether I direct this concept to a Black inner city business owner or a white suburban business owner, the message is consistent, YOU are YOUR business. You are the heart, soul and mind of your business, the very essence of it, whenever you ignore that principle, you pay dearly……disruption is inevitable.

YOU come in. YOU- conceived the idea of the business, that idea or thought is then crystallized in the formation and birth of an actual business model - a living organism teeming with dynamism, energy, ideas, hope and optimism.

YOUR effort and achievement is the result of a process that unleashed - YOUR Vision, Creativity, Motivation, Intent, Planning, Knowledge, Hard Work and Determination and the person Driving all that activity is YOU.

So stop making excuses, stop blaming your staff – train them. Stop blaming the economy, work with it. Stop complaining about your competition – raise your game. Stop complaining about your customers, find better ways to serve them. Create a business culture that values your customers and empowers your staff. If YOU take credit for its birth, then take responsibility for its growth and all the pains that accompany that growth. The business is YOURS, own it!

I personally recall the years 2007 and 2008 when newspapers and magazines were dying like flies, the industry was hemorrhaging. What did I do? I decided that it was smarter to cut Traditionally, the business enterprise is largely my operational costs rather than raise my rates. perceived as brick and mortar leveraged by an I didn’t take time to blame other factors for the infusion of money and powered by a labor force. state of my business. I looked at myself in the Despite the dramatic shift in business activity mirror and took responsibility for the product I due to technological trends and innovations, the created. YOU must quickly decide whether you are business model is still seen by many as a physical going to wallow in the Problem or be the Solution structure. to the Problem.

That perception of the business model as a largely physical but impersonal enterprise, discounts the reality of the psychological element of business. It is true that more books are being written and more courses are being taught about the importance of behaviors and attitudes in business, but the missing element is a full awareness that the business model is a product of the Creative Thought Process. This is where 6 | PULSE OF THE CARIBBEAN PEOPLE

You have to constantly re-visit YOUR vision, YOUR intention, YOUR willingness to work hard, be determined to succeed, then, project that message to your team and your customers.

This requires an on-going investment in your mental and emotional state. Am I saying businesses don’t fail because of a bad economy, because of bad government policies, because of demographic shifts? No! What I am in fact saying is, the one big reason that most businesses fail, is because the Leaders vision was impaired, very much like the Captain of the Titanic. Business ownership and entrepreneurship really means that you own full Authority, Responsibility and Accountability for all its activities and outcomes.

It’s a lonely journey that comes with high risks and equally high rewards.

If you are reading this and you are a business owner or an entrepreneur, I encourage you to step back and evaluate your original Vision, Intention, Work Ethic and Determination. If you are thinking of becoming a business owner or entrepreneur, I encourage you to check very carefully your intention or reason for choosing that career path, even if you believe you are successful in what you are doing, you might want to re-evaluate your path, as your success might be consistently at the expense of others. Businesses that are run with the wrong intentions, wrong motivations and wrong reasons are doomed to failure. Business that are run with the intention to raise the quality of service, raise the quality of life and continue to apply the best practices in its industry will continue to survive and thrive.

‘Cause that’s WhereItzAt!

A Perfect Fit

By Gail Lewis

R

ecently, a colleague was asked to be the keynote speaker at a local Jamaican civic organization’s dinner dance. He convinced himself that he was going to deliver the speech to top all speeches: He would use the podium to address political and economic disparities in Jamaica, and call the audience to join him in reinventing the Jamaican Social Compact.

Fifteen minutes into his speech however, the audience, who had just finished eating dinner, had grown bored. The speech was just too heavy for the occasion. The ladies were dressed to the nines, hair and nails done. The men were ready to get down on the dance floor. The speaker kept droning on.

At one point, twenty-five minutes into the speech, a very well dressed audience member walked up to the podium and slipped the keynote speaker a cocktail napkin with a handwritten note. The note read, “Please finish now. We are

bored. This is too much for us right now.”

The keynote speaker abruptly ended his speech, A speech written to address the United Nations the audience hastily applauded, and the dancing General Assembly will be out-of-place at a local and festivities commenced. awards dinner.

But what we tend to forget, are the desires and feelings of listeners.

At this fete, the celebrants wanted to experience joy: It was a celebration, not a schoolhouse. My colleague, with his heavy, fact-laden, complex speech, did not take the needs of his audience into consideration when writing his manuscript.

His only concern was with impressing his audience with multi-syllabic laden speech with no structure or real substance.

The takeaway: Try not to be an inappropriate

REAL ESTATE REALITY

Displaced Millionaires

By Sharon R. Frank

T

he internet is full of articles on real estate; what to do, what not to do, how to sell fast, sell high, buy low, and most of it is helpful ... unless, you happen to live in an area where the rules of real estate don’t apply.

What could that possibly mean?

Some areas within major cities, most notably the outer boroughs of New York City just don’t follow the trends.

The two most common reasons are high interest from a particular ethnic group with financial resources, or gentrification. Gentrification is the term used to explain why neighborhoods, which might not have previously been in great demand, become very valuable because they are affordable compared to the centers of culture and employment nearby.

The Brooklyn real estate market is a great example.

During the period from 2008 through 2010, while the rest of the country’s real estate market suffered a steep decline in home values and the mortgage market crashed,

Brooklyn real estate home values continued to climb.

The Brooklyn real estate market is unique due to the borough’s cultural and ethnic diversity and proximity to Manhattan, so the factors that influenced this unique real estate phenomenon included the supply and demand ratio re-discovered in the Brooklyn real estate market as well as the resurgence of neighborhoods. Some of the most sought after neighborhoods were once considered undesirable, but are now in high demand by buyers of all races due to the spill-over from would be buyers who want the convenience of living near Manhattan, but can’t afford Manhattan’s unaffordable real estate market.

According to the National Percentile Rank, some of the neighborhoods affected by the resurgence are, Bedford Stuyvesant, Williamsburg, Bushwick, Ocean Hill, to name a few, has a median income of $21,706. The makeup of these neighborhoods are Blacks 58.5% , Hispanics 33.6% and other races 7.9%.

What does it mean for current owners?

How does this impact the low income, poor, or retirees who have lived in these communities for decades, who

Sharon R. Frank now have discovered that their homes are worth millions?

Does this make them millionaires based on the equity of their property or is equity an “illusion” to these low income home owners? That all depends upon the answer to the real questions, which are - can these homeowners sell their existing homes and relocate comfortably? And where would they go when their home is their only real asset and their income is low? So, while many Brooklyn homeowners may be sitting on a veritable goldmine, the difficulty of accessing that value can mean that they are displaced millionaires, who are neither here nor there.

FEATURE Celebrity Chef Wenford Patrick Simpson Launches His Cooking Show,

“Cook-Up with Chef Patrick,” on TEMPO Networks The list of celebrities Chef Patrick has cooked for is as diverse as his flavor combinations. Only a few of the notable names include the Clintons, Felicia Rashad, Washington DC Mayor Murial Bowser, Donald Trump, Mike Tyson, Jamie Foxx and Air Supply.

With a dynamic, indefatigable energy level, Chef Patrick’s engaging, sincere personality is beloved by co-workers and customers alike.

C

hef Wenford Patrick Simpson is known by many for his talent in infusing a variety of tastes and culinary influences, but those who know him are drawn to his genuinely amiable nature.

A popular fixture in Macy’s and Bloomingdales, Chef Patrick has also been recognized in countless cooking arenas, spicing up the Potato Latke Festival, making appearances on several media outlets— stay tuned for an upcoming appearance on Food Network—and recently taking top honors at the Latet MasterChef competition. However, always proud of his Caribbean heritage, perhaps the chef ’s most popular dishes are perhaps those closest to his roots and his heart.

B.B. King Blues Club & Grill on 42nd Street soon caught his attention, where he splits his time between here and their sister restaurant, the Highline Ballroom as Corporate Chef.

18 | PULSE OF THE CARIBBEAN PEOPLE

During an elegant dinner meeting at B.B. King Blues Club & Grill, Chef Patrick and the founder of TEMPO Networks, Frederick Morton, held exclusive conversations about the evolution of TEMPO Networks new cooking show, Cook-Up with Chef Patrick.

Chef Patrick says, “I am excited to partake in this wonderful adventure with TEMPO Networks in having my own show! It is truly a dream come true.

I cannot wait to show the world the great cuisines created and take them on a journey of flavors.”

Born in Jamaica, Chef Patrick’s love started humbly in his family’s kitchen, but quickly developed into a true passion as he began experimenting with different flavor combinations. His magical flare in the kitchen was quickly recognized and encouraged by the adults in his life, and he was granted two internships to learn about baking and cooking while he was still in school.

The chef ’s talents took him in several different directions after graduation. His first job coincided with the end of his schooling, when he immediately began in the kitchens Club Caribbean. He then worked in Jamaica Grand Hotel and Sandals before shifting to Royal Caribbean and then Disney Cruise Lines. Later, his reputation grew at New York’s Negril Restaurant for his American and Jamaicaninspired dishes.

Chef Wenford Patrick Simpson is known for his talent of infusing a variety of flavors in his dishes and his culinary influences, but those who really know him are drawn to his genuinely amiable nature.

Chef Patrick is currently Corporate Executive Chef for B.B. King Blues Club & Grill in New York, NY, Highline Ballroom, Howard Theater in Washington D.C, and Subrosa. As a celebrity chef, Chef Patrick pushes the boundaries in the kitchen, creating a truly unique dining experience born out of Caribbean spices, Southern cooking with an American flair.

Each dish he creates is a work of art, not only in flavor combinations but on the plate as well.

On this show Chef Patrick fuses the beauty of the Caribbean, including its diverse cultures and traditions, from French, Dutch, and Spanish influences and takes viewers on a delicious journey.

There will be various genres of music including Reggae, Soca, Pop, R&B, Hip-Hop, Rock, and more mixed in the show, with the world renowned acts performing at B.B.King Blues Club & Grill and Chef Patrick’s celebrity friends popping in.

Chef Wenford Patrick Simpson has announced that he will be launching his cooking show “Cook-Up with Chef Patrick” on the TEMPO Networks, a pan-Caribbean television channel broadcasting the music and culture of the Caribbean. The show will begin airing soon on Optimum channel 1105 and Verizon Fios channel 267.

USAIN BOLT THE GREATEST SPRINTER OF ALL TIME!

U

sain Bolt is the kind of performer that makes superlatives inadequate. His dominance, showmanship, universal appeal and sheer talent has left sports writers unsure of what else to say of this – “greatest sprinter of all time.” This is not to say Karl Lewis, Michael Johnson and Jessie Owens weren’t great, not to mention one of my personal heroes and the man who started it all by breaking the 10 second barrier namely, Jim Hines; but in a larger more expansive and competitive system Usain Bolt has defied and remade the laws of motion by taking the world record for the 100m to 9.58 seconds and the 200m World record to 19.19m.

Bolt has established himself soundly as the world’s greatest sprinter of all time and Jamaica’s national treasure. So like Robert Nesta Marley, Usain Bolt” run the world.”( Like the pun?)

As Jamaicans and fans we feel a sense of unbridled pride for his exploits, but also great respect and admiration for the people who nurtured this amazing talent. Just imagine how his family must feel, his mother and father Jennifer and Wellesley as well as his brother and sister Sadiki and Sherine. The entire village of Sherwood Content in Trelawny should be a shrine for the Bolt family.

My fervent hope is that the Jamaican government

will not just heap honors on this young man, but nurture and protect his legacy as a monument for the example, motivation, encouragement for other young Jamaicans. Usain did not become one of the richest athletes in the world because of his academic achievements, nor did he become world famous because of special privileges he received. He became famous because of a talent he possessed, which thankfully was nurtured and developed by not only a loving family, but

IS COLIN KAEPERNICK MORE RIGHT THAN YOU KNOW? IS THE NATIONAL ANTHEM A CELEBRATION OF SLAVERY?

B

success was its active recruitment of American slaves.

efore a preseason game on Friday, San As a detailed 2014 article in Harper’s explains, the

Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick refused to stand for the playing of “The StarSpangled Banner.” When he explained why, he only spoke about the present: “I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color. … There are bodies in the street and people getting paid leave and getting away with murder.”

Twitter then went predictably nuts, with at least one 49ers fan burning Kaepernick’s jersey.

Almost no one seems to be aware that even if the U.S. were a perfect country today, it would be bizarre to expect African-American players to stand for “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Why? Because it literally celebrates the murder of African-Americans.

Few people know this because we only ever sing the first verse. But read the end of the third verse and you’ll see why “The Star-Spangled Banner” is not just a musical atrocity, it’s an intellectual and moral one, too: No refuge could save the hireling and slave From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave, And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

“The Star-Spangled Banner,” Americans hazily remember, was written by Francis Scott Key about the Battle of Fort McHenry in Baltimore during the War of 1812. But we don’t ever talk about how the War of 1812 was a war of aggression that began with an attempt by the U.S. to grab Canada from the British Empire.

However, we’d wildly overestimated the strength of the U.S. military. By the time of the Battle of Fort McHenry in 1814, the British had counterattacked and overrun Washington, D.C., setting fire to the White House.

And one of the key tactics behind the British military’s 22 | PULSE OF THE CARIBBEAN PEOPLE

orders given to the Royal Navy’s Admiral Sir George Cockburn read: Let the landings you make be more for the protection of the desertion of the Black Population than with a view to any other advantage. … The great point to be attained is the cordial Support of the Black population. With them properly armed & backed with 20,000 British Troops, Mr. Madison will be hurled from his throne.

Whole families found their way to the ships of the British, who accepted everyone and pledged no one would be given back to their “owners.” Adult men were trained to create a regiment called the Colonial Marines, who participated in many of the most important battles, including the August 1814 raid on Washington.

Then on the night of September 13, 1814, the British bombarded Fort McHenry. Key, seeing the fort’s flag the next morning, was inspired to write the lyrics for “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

the end of 1814, the U.S. government demanded the return of American “property,” which by that point numbered about 6,000 people. The British refused.

Most of the 6,000 eventually settled in Canada, with some going to Trinidad, where their descendants are still known as “Merikins.”

Furthermore, if those leading the backlash against Kaepernick need more inspiration, they can get it from Francis Scott Key’s later life.

By 1833, Key was a district attorney for Washington, D.C. As described in a book called Snowstorm in August by former Washington Post reporter Jefferson Morley, the police were notorious thieves, frequently stealing free blacks’ possessions with impunity. One night, one of the constables tried to attack a woman who escaped and ran away — until she fell off a bridge across the Potomac and drowned.

So when Key penned “No refuge could save the hireling and slave / From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,” he was taking great satisfaction in the death of slaves who’d freed themselves. His “There is neither mercy nor justice for colored people perspective may have been affected by the fact he in this district,” an abolitionist paper wrote. “No fuss or stir was made about it. She was got out of the owned several slaves himself. river, and was buried, and there the matter ended.”

With that in mind, think again about the next two lines: “And the star-spangled banner in triumph Key was furious and indicted the newspaper for doth wave / O’er the land of the free and the home intending “to injure, oppress, aggrieve & vilify the good name, fame, credit & reputation of the of the brave.”

Magistrates & constables of Washington County.”

The reality is that there were human beings fighting for freedom with incredible bravery during the War You can decide for yourself whether there’s some of 1812. However, “The Star-Spangled Banner” connection between what happened 200 years ago glorifies America’s “triumph” over them — and and what Colin Kaepernick is angry about today. then turns that reality completely upside down, Maybe it’s all ancient, meaningless history. Or transforming their killers into the courageous maybe it’s not, and Kaepernick is right, and we really need a new national anthem. freedom fighters.

You may think you know everything there is to know about this summertime fruit, but allow me to surprise you... watermelon is more than just delicious... it’s a superhealthy addition to your diet (in moderation, of course).

6 Watermelon Facts That Might Surprise You

1

Watermelon Has More Lycopene Than Raw Tomatoes

You do need to be careful with drinking watermelon juice, though, as it contains a significant amount of fructose. It may be better to eat the entire fruit, or opt for these other tips to prevent muscle soreness.

3

Watermelon Is a Fruit and a Vegetable

4

You Can Eat Watermelon Rind and Seeds

Remember how watermelon is related to cucumbers, pumpkin, and squash? That’s because it’s part vegetable and part fruit (it’s a sweet, seedproducing plant, after all). The other clue that watermelon is both fruit and vegetable?

The rind is entirely edible...

Most people throw away the watermelon rind, but try putting it in a blender with some lime for a healthy, refreshing treat. Not only does the rind contain plenty of health-promoting and bloodbuilding chlorophyll, but the rind actually contains more of the amino acid citrulline than the pink flesh.

Lycopene is a powerful carotenoid antioxidant that gives fruits and vegetables a pink or red color.

While many people prefer seedless watermelon varieties, black watermelon seeds are edible and actually quite healthy. They contain iron, zinc, protein, and fiber. (In case you were wondering, seedless watermelons aren’t genetically modified, as they’re the result of hybridization.)

5

It’s Mostly Water

6

Some Watermelon Are Yellow

This might not be surprising, but it’s still a fun fact; watermelon is more than 91 percent water.

This means that eating watermelon with you on a hot summer day is a tasty way to help you stay hydrated and avoid dehydration (it’s not a substitute for drinking plenty of fresh water, however).

The Yellow Crimson watermelon has yellow flesh with a sweeter, honey flavor than the more popular pinkfleshed Crimson Sweet. It’s likely that yellow watermelon offers its own unique set of nutritional benefits, but most research to date has focused on the pinkfleshed varieties.
