Place of Birth
Hulk Hogan has a knack for drawing attention. That's why he has made millions of dollars in his career. The former world heavyweight champion has pulled TMZ in and brought extra attention to WWE this week by exaggerating his supposed real life feud with Brock Lesnar. Hogan is pretending to have backstage heat with Lesnar because the former UFC champion called him "grandpa".
August 21, 2014
Much was made about the longstanding backstage heat between Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior over this past week, but according to Hogan, the two of them finally got a chance to make up.

"Right before he passed, we ran into each other at a doctor's office. He had gotten remarried to his high school sweetheart. He was smiling and grinning. He was the old Macho Man I had always known. We hugged each other and talked on the phone a few times. We were planning to have a barbecue at his mom's house, and a couple days before that, he passed away." - Hulk Hogan discusses the end of his backstage heat with Randy Savage
April 1, 2014
During an interview session with fans in Manchester, Bret Hart revealed that he has still has some backstage heat with Hulk Hogan.

March 25, 2014
Rumors surfaced over the weekend that Michael Elgin had backstage heat on him from management over comments that he made about wanting to take a break from ROH and trying out for professional baseball in the near future. Reports have surfaced that those rumors are false because management is actually upset with him for doing the job to Trevor Lee at a PWG show. ROH rightfully does not believe that their world heavyweight champion should be putting people in other companies over.
September 9, 2014
During a podcast interview with Chris Jericho, Batista revealed that he has some lingering backstage heat towards Vince McMahon over an incident that happened a couple of years ago. The former world heavyweight champion was fined $100,000 by WWE because he purposely cut himself during a match to draw blood. Batista felt that the amount was unfairly high, and he noted that was the day when he knew that things would never be the same with WWE.
September 8, 2014
Rumors are floating around right now that there is a good amount of backstage heat from management towards Zack Ryder. Some are even pointing to the fact that he was squashed by Alexander Rusev recently as evidence that WWE is upset with him for comments that he has made on social media. The belief is that Ryder is on thin ice nowadays, as his name value has been reduced greatly by being utilized sparsely over the last couple of years.
September 2, 2014
Where there's smoke, there's usually fire. Rumors have persisted for quite some time now that there is still backstage heat towards Jim Ross in WWE. There is some new evidence to support that claim. Ross recently revealed that the company has not approved any of their performers to be a guest on his podcast show, where Steve Austin and Chris Jericho have had plenty of WWE personnel, including Triple H himself, doing interviews for them.
September 1, 2014
In regards to the release of ODB from TNA, reports are surfacing that the two sides are leaving on good terms. She was not released because of backstage heat or anything. In fact, her contract had expired, and management opted not to renew her deal at this time. The belief is that the two sides could come to an agreement down the line, but nothing is expected to happen until TNA can secure a new television deal.
August 29, 2014
During a recent interview with Alternative Nation, Hornswoggle was asked about his backstage heat with the Rock. The WWE star revealed some details about an incident that took place when the Rock was revealed as the special guest host of Wrestlemania 27. Hornswoggle stated that the Rock confused him for a Make a Wish kid. Rock apparently tapped him on the shoulders and asked if he had a good time at the show.
August 29, 2014
There might be some backstage heat towards Zack Ryder. After working the live events this week for the company, he noted that he was flying back to New York. He also stated that he was not sick, which has led many fans to believe that this involves some sort of disciplinarian issues. WWE usually flies in performers for Monday Night Raw and Smackdown, even if they're not being utilized on television.
August 25, 2014
There are rumors floating around right now that Kurt Angle has called Triple H about a possible return to WWE. Reports has surfaced that HHH is not interested in a reunion with the former world heavyweight champion. There is said to be some lingering backstage heat from HHH towards Angle, whose contract with TNA expires in exactly a month from today.
August 21, 2014
Rumors are now floating around that one of the reasons why TNA parted ways with Vince Russo is due to the fact that he interviewed Daffney on his podcast show. There is said to be a good amount of backstage heat towards her because of the lawsuit that she filed against the company a couple of years back. Russo being involved with her is something that reportedly annoyed management.
August 19, 2014
Last night, Jeff Jarrett was scheduled to work a match at TripleMania, which is the biggest pay per view by AAA. Unfortunately, though, he was not able to make it. Jarrett had some travel issues due to some bad weather in Texas. There is said to be no backstage heat towards the former world heavyweight champion because he did make the effort to try to get to Mexico for the show.
August 18, 2014
Reports are surfacing that there is some backstage heat between Vince McMahon and Triple H at the moment over the main event of Wrestlemania 31. McMahon wants Brock Lesnar to defend the title against the Rock, as he feels that those two guys would produce the biggest draw of a match for WWE. HHH, however, wants the company to elevate Roman Reigns by having him challenge Lesnar.
August 18, 2014
For a long period of time there, Sean Waltman was quite critical of TNA. His angst was especially aimed at Dixie Carter, which led many to believe that he had some backstage heat with her. Lately, though, Waltman has eased up. He even stated that Spike TV and Impact Wrestling were a great fit for one another. He also mentioned that he hopes a new television contract gets signed between the two sides.
August 3, 2014
Some interesting news was recently revealed by Jake Roberts. The master of the DDT told fans that he initially did not want to be inducted during the same night as the Ultimate Warrior, as the two of them have had a longstanding backstage heat. Roberts also stated that he was going to avoid Warrior at the hall of fame ceremony. However, both sides decided to make up with one another instead.
August 3, 2014
Earlier in the month, Steve Austin made a comment about WWE being too scripted for his taste. While those comments would surely bring backstage heat on one of their mid card performers, it is being said that there is absolutely no heat towards Austin, as management knows that they might need him for business down the line.
July 28, 2014
It looks like the longstanding real life backstage heat between Goldberg and Scott Hall has now ended. The disdain between the two sides started when both were working in WCW. Goldberg has publicly stated that Hall was unprofessional and careless in the ring. The two of them were spotted together at a wrestling convention in Arizona recently, and they appeared to be cordial with one another.
July 28, 2014
Anyone that has heard Jim Cornette speak over the last decade should already know that he absolutely hates Vince Russo. The former WWE manager routinely sways regular conversations into diatribes against Russo. Through Twitter, Russo offered to make pace with Cornette. As expected, though, Cornette wants nothing to do with that. He refuses to end the backstage heat between the two.
July 14, 2014
A black eye usually is not something to be proud of. It is, however, when you're a lifelong wrestling fan being punched by one of the greatest performers that the industry has ever seen. Bray Wyatt received a black eye during a big live event at Madison Square Garden in New York City over the weeken due to an errant punch by Ric Flair. Reports are stating that the incident happened because Flair forgot that he was wearing his hall of fame ring. There is said to be no backstage heat between the two due to the injury.
July 14, 2014
For a short period of time there, Tommy Dreamer and Dixie Carter worked online wrestling fans into believing that there was real backstage heat between the two. That led many to wonder if Dreamer was still going to be working for TNA. At the recent Impact Wrestling taping, Dreamer continued to work as a backstage agent for the company. The belief is that he will remain in that role for the foreseeable future.
June 29, 2014
Those that have been following Mick Foley closely over the last year are aware that there is some sort of backstage heat between he and Vince McMahon. WWE has given him the cold shoulders on a couple of occasions. Foley has now revealed a possible source of that friction. He accidentally sent a message to McMahon while trying to send to Brie Bella and Daniel Bryan. The content of that message was Foley complaining about WWE not doing the right thing and putting Bryan over when his popularity was at its peak.
June 27, 2014
When WWE announced that they were releasing several performers from their main roster earlier this month, it caught a few of them by surprise. JTG, however, was well prepared for his release. He had been expecting it for quite some time now. There was an incident a while back where he received major backstage heat from management for speaking out about payment. Since then, his days with WWE were numbered. JTG recently revealed to TMZ that he had started planning around the release way before it took place.
June 23, 2014
As a few people are already aware, Hulk Hogan has been generating some hype recently by teasing fans that he wants to make a return to the WWE ring for one final match. The former world heavyweight champion has teased that he wants to work against John Cena. Well, some fuel has been added to that fire, as Cena himself is now starting to tease the match as well. The belief is that the two of them are simply promoting the upcoming Wrestlemania 31 pay per view.
August 30, 2014
WWE is bringing in the big names to help open up Monday Night Raw this week. Hulk Hogan, Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair have been confirmed to make an appearance. The trio of former world heavyweight champions will be in the opening segment. Reports are surfacing that Flair, Hogan and Michaels will be promoting the feud between John Cena and Brock Lesnar, who is not scheduled to be there.
August 23, 2014
The relationship between Hulk Hogan and WWE has been further extended, as the former world heavyweight champion is now going to be involved in a movie for the company. WWE Studios is producing Celebrity Death Pool, featuring Ken Jeong from the Hangover series and David Hasselhoff. Hogan has a small role in the movie, but the company is expected to promote him heavily to draw in their fan base.
August 21, 2014
When Brock Lesnar interrupted the birthday celebration for Hulk Hogan on Monday Night Raw last week, he went off script a bit. The former UFC Heavyweight Champion said, "Party's over, grandpa." That was not a line fed to him by the WWE creative department. Reports are surfacing that Lesnar took that jab on his own or had help from Paul Heyman in coming up with that line.
August 18, 2014
Since he did not fly home to Florida after the live WWE event last night, the belief is that Hulk Hogan will be making an appearance at Summerslam 2014 tonight. There is also a good chance that he will be making an appearance on Monday Night Raw tomorrow as well. WWE sent their private jet to northern California last night, so that the performers did not have to make the five hour drive down to Los Angeles.
August 17, 2014
As if he really needed it, Hulk Hogan has gained more leverage with WWE when it comes to capitalizing on his name value. The special edition of the upcoming WWE 2K15 with his face attached to it has reportedly been sold out at a lot of retailers, even though the release date is still several weeks away. Hogan has been quite the asset to the company over the last year, and he more than likely will continue to cash in big checks from WWE.
August 16, 2014
"I've been really quiet since the passing of my husband and the father of my girls. Someone sent me what Mr Bollea had to say in video interview with Grantland yesterday and I would just like to ask him to stop. He is the only person in the WWE Universe who did not give a call or send a card. My girls asked why he didn't check on us like everyone else and I explained simply there isn't a camera at our mailbox or in the house when we receive our calls. I would ask respectfully Mr Bollea, for you to understand my girls hurt and just let some time pass before you say anything more." - wife of the Ultimate Warrior to Hulk Hogan
August 15, 2014
There's a little battle brewing right now between two of the greatest WWE stars of all time. Recently, Steve Austin stated that he was the best draw that the business has ever seen. When asked about the statement, Hulk Hogan argued that he was the best by stating that his career was twice as long as the one Austin had. This does not appear to be a promotional thing since the two of them will not be doing a match together.
August 15, 2014
Since WWE wants to make this is a big edition of Monday Night Raw, the company has enlisted the help of Hulk Hogan and friends to help spike the ratings. Scott Hall and Kevin Nash have already been confirmed for an appearance, and there are talks that an nWo reunion could be taking place. Another person from Hogan's past has now been added as well. Paul Orndorff is scheduled to make an appearance tonight.
August 11, 2014
While a lot of fans are still under the impression that Hulk Hogan is really training to make an in ring return for WWE, no discussions are taking place within the company, as many people are already aware that the former world heavyweight champion is in no shape to wrestle. Vince McMahon would gladly pull the trigger on something like this since it would generate a ton of publicity, but he knows it will not be taking place.
August 8, 2014
The white and black is headed back to WWE next week when Monday Night Raw comes to us live from Portland. Hulk Hogan will be celebrating his birthday on air, and he has a couple of buddies coming back to join him. Scott Hall and Kevin Nash have reportedly been confirmed for the event, and the belief is that WWE will be doing some sort of nWo reunion to boost television ratings.
August 6, 2014
For years, Hulk Hogan has worked the audience. He knows how to sucker in the most gullible of fans. The WWE legend is at it again. At a promotional event in New Jersey on Saturday, Hogan told the audience that he was training for another match. He also stated that he wanted it to be against John Cena. Hogan is in no shape to work another match, so the belief is that he's just creating a buzz.
August 3, 2014
While a lot of fans bashed TNA for paying big bucks to Hulk Hogan over the years, his true value is coming out as Dixie Carter is having some trouble trying to secure a new television deal for Impact Wrestling. Hogan's name value helped open a lot of doors in business for the company, and his absence has made it a bit harder to sell networks on their product.
July 29, 2014
Since they're paying him a tremendous amount of money, Hulk Hogan has been traveling the globe for WWE. After being the unofficial featured attraction in Japan, the former world heavyweight champion has headed down to Mexico to do some promotion work for the company. WWE is doing a tour of the country soon, and they're hoping that Hogan can help spike interest much like he did in Japan.
July 22, 2014
To get an idea of why WWE pays Hulk Hogan so much money even though he can no longer be an in ring performer, simply look at how he was treated during the recent tour of Japan. Media and fans in that country treated the Hogan return as a much bigger thing that the actual WWE live events. Hogan's involvement alone helped to generate better numbers for WWE in Japan than they have been receiving over the last couple of years.
July 17, 2014
With the company in Japan for a tour, WWE stars were in for a bit of a rude awakening this weekend. A 6.8 earthquake struck the island country. Several of the stars made note of the incident through their social media website. Hulk Hogan revealed that his bed had moved around the hotel room. Fortunately, though, this particular earthquake did not produce devastating tsunamis like the last one.
July 12, 2014
WWE has a very big announcement being set up in Tokyo this week. It's such a major move in Japan that they even have Hulk Hogan making an appearance at the event. The belief is that this is where the company will reveal that they have signed Kenta Kobayashi, one of the better performers in the country, to a contract to join the WWE roster.
July 11, 2014
Over the last couple of years, WWE has had trouble selling out arenas in Japan. Often times, the places would be half filled when the company runs live events there. Their show in next week in Tokyo, though, has been sold out completely, which is a pleasant surprise to WWE officials. The belief is that the presence of Hulk Hogan might have convinced fans over there to attend the show.
July 4, 2014
When Hulk Hogan decided to return to WWE, there were those that wondered if he took a lesser deal to return to the company. However, it looks like the opposite is actually true. Hogan has a huge guarantee in his deal, which means that WWE will pay him even if he does not make appearances. When he does show up, he gets a sizable amount of money for doing so. Hogan also negotiated a deal that enables him to work outside of WWE. The deal is said to be heavily favored towards Hogan.
July 3, 2014
"Yes, I like Hulk Hogan - and here's why. With each passing year, I think I gain a better perspective on what's really important in life. There was a time - a period of many years - where Hulk's name would bring up some negative feelings for me. He was the guy who made far more than I did with a style that was the antithesis of mine. But for the past several years, whenever I see Hulk Hogan, all I can think of are the words Shane Douglas shared with me about Hulk Hogan and the kindness and warmth with which he showered the kids facing life-threatening challenges, who seemed to find strength and inspiration in Hulk's larger than life physique and personality. I'll never forget those words Shane told me, 'Those kids would just be beaming.' Those words are all I think of when I see Hogan, People can take issue with his wrestling style...as they often do with mine. But, when it's all said and done, Hulk Hogan used that oversized personality, and really big heart to ease so much suffering that he saw around him.. In the bigger picture, does anything else really matter?" - Mick Foley shares his feelings on Hulk Hogan

Jasmy Update: I have found an interesting signal for us to keep an eye on!
#jasmy #jasmyusd #jasmycoin #jasmytoken #jasmyorgasmy #peanutbutterjasmytime
- Suppression has appeared to have subsided for the time being
- An interesting artifact I have uncovered. Could this be a secret signal?
- And I do some technical analysis, looking for good entry/re-entry areas.
Wallet I have been tracking:

The Coronavirus (Sars-CoV-2) epidemic has created a public fear that is historic. Since it was first identified in the United States this past January (it was possibly here before that), there has been an unprecedented governmental and Church response that has restricted personal freedoms and wiped out the sacramental life of millions of Catholics. This is despite repeated and consistent scientific evidence that the virus is harmless to most Americans, treatment exists that can kill off Coronavirus, and governmental actions have had no impact on the spread of the virus. A brief sampling of the science is warranted:
With regard to the Coronavirus, those under the age of 30 have virtually no risk of death from the virus and data show it may be safer than influenza infection in this age group. 1/1,666 Michigan residents are alleged to have died of COVID-19 this year. Nationwide, 159,865 people are reported to have died from COVID-19 (These numbers are most likely grossly inflated as is described below.) but over 500,000 people die each year of heart disease and over 400,000 die of cancer each year.
Face coverings do not prevent an individual from getting Coronavirus; the CDC admits this on their website. The recommendations and mandates for wearing face masks stem from the thought that face coverings may prevent the spread of the virus from an infected person to someone else. The virus, however, is smaller (0.1 micrometers) than what any face mask, surgical mask, or N95 mask will filter out. The often-touted N95 mask effectively filters particles that are 0.5 micrometers or larger. Neither influenza nor Coronavirus will be effectively filtered with masks.
At this time, in northwest lower Michigan, less than 3% of those tested are coming back positive for Coronavirus; that is, over 97.5% of people tested have a negative Coronavirus test result. As of today, in all of the Munson system hospitals (representing a significant portion of the Gaylord Diocese), only 3 hospitalized patients with a positive Coronavirus test exist.(https://www.munsonhealthcare.org/services/community-health/covid19/new-coronavirus-(covid-19) ) .
Social distancing has been encouraged to decrease the spread of the virus. However, in a survey of 1,000 hospitalized COVID-19 patients in New York City, 84% of them were on lockdown (socially distancing + some!) when they got sick.
There is no scientific evidence that singing spreads Coronavirus any more than breathing. A recent study revealed that singing is no more likely to spread Coronavirus than speaking (https://www.christianpost.com/news/singing-is-no-more-of-a-risk-in-spreading-covid-19-than-talking-study.html).
Nationwide, 45% of Coronavirus deaths have been reported from nursing homes even though less than 2% of the Americans live in nursing homes.
The numbers of COVID-19 cases have become unreliable and unbelievable, as people who have a positive test but no symptoms (ie, carriers of the virus or false positive results) are listed as actively diseased. The CDC, since April, has counted all pneumonia deaths as COVID-19 deaths. As of today, the CDC lists a total of 159,865 deaths from COVID-19 but only 6,628 deaths from influenza. (https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/COVID19/) In the past, yearly death rates from influenza exceeded 25,000-60,000 depending on the year. Numerous reports exist of patients dying in the hospital from non-COVID-19 reasons yet the death certificate states COVID-19 as the cause of death; hospitals receive more in government aid dollars via mechanisms such as Medicare if COVID-19 is listed as the cause of death. The true numbers of deaths from COVID-19 may be less than 60,000.
With all this in mind, Bishop Walter Hurley, Administrator of the Diocese of Gaylord, has extended the “dispensation for all Catholics within the Diocese of Gaylord from the obligation of attending Sunday Mass through and including the feast of Christ the King, Sunday, November 22, 2020.” Bishop Hurley also stated the following will be continued to be mandated in the Diocese despite no scientific data to show these interventions will help: wearing of masks, limited singing, social distancing, limiting the congregation to 25% of the capacity of the Church. In an era where attendance at Mass was already on a steep decline with a massive drop in Catholic Church weddings and baptisms, this continued push to keep people away from the God’s House is unreal. Some have offered the notion that this is purposeful, ie, at attempt to destroy the Church from within using the power of pronouncement that Bishops have to regulate Church activity. In any event, we must all pray for the Holy Spirit to end this time of chastisement. We must all do what God has in store for us to do in order to confront the lies and misdeeds that lead to suffering in the Church. Saint Michael, Pray for Us!

So I made a blog about this but then I deleted it shortly after because I thought it was crappy so I’m gonna try again lmao.
You may be aware of this issue on AFF, it’s silent yet deafening: silent readers. It’s not my first time seeing this issue being brought up on this website and after spending a good amount of years here, it’s honestly disappointing to see it continue to be a prevailing issue.
Here on AFF, we all come here to show our love for our favorites in a number of creative ways; designing, role-playing, and most commonly - writing. There are over a million stories here done by thousands of authors available in so many genres that could be thought of on this website for you to read from. Among all those stories, we have a plethora of creative plots and they still keep on coming to this day. To remind you, authors here are doing this for free. Creativity for your own enjoyment is not free outside of this website and just in the world of fandoms overall. I think people are forgetting that and that is often taken for granted.
The only form of payment that these authors would generally receive from their stories are karma points. And that is often earned through from readers subscribing, upvoting, or commenting.
I don’t heavily stress on having readers comment on my stories but I won’t deny that it feels damn good to receive one. Seeing that white globe turn orange with a “New story comments” notification gets my heart pumping. I’m curious and thrilled to see what my readers think of what I’ve written. I can’t help it. And no matter how short or long it is, I love it. I often reply to all of them back but sometimes I’m not articulate enough to come up with a good response so I would wind up upvoting that comment but I’m hoping to fix that very soon.
And with the recent attention of the issue, I can’t help but be reminded of my previous experiences on my old accounts here on this website. Previously as an author, I spend my waking and sometimes even sleeping hours coming up with good story ideas and bringing them to life through writing up to the point where my brain feels like it’s being fried relentlessly. It’s tiring and nearly draining. And when I publish the chapter, I hope that effort I put in is worth it. And when I notice that I receive very little to no comments, I often ponder my worth and skill as an author even though it was just a hobby. That has led me to lose motivation quickly and I would often delete my stories without notice. I can’t tell you how many times I had left this website and came back with new accounts, only to delete them again when the problem continued. It was incredibly disheartening.
I don’t want to generalize, blame, or guilt silent readers into commenting, I completely understand the reasons why they wouldn’t: not comfortable to speak, don’t want to embarrass themselves, be annoying/redundant to the author. But I assure you, any kind of comment no matter how bad you think it is will make your author’s day. I’ve been a silent reader before and it took a long time for me to begin commenting on the stories I would read and it felt good. And seeing the author reply back is enlightening, it’s like we hear and recognize each other. And for once, I didn’t feel so unheard and alone.
I don’t want to force anyone to get out of their comfort zone immediately, so please take your time. Do what you need to do to get to that point. But I will highlight the fact that readers are the literal backbone of this website. Having your voice be heard allows for authors to continue sharing their creativity and ideas for you to enjoy, you guys keep this website alive. If you’re one of the silent readers out there, please let yourselves be known. Like the authors here, your words are just as powerful as theirs.

Cross-Cultural Perspectives Essay Sample
When an organization goes global, there are new social and ethical issues that arise. A company like Wal-Mart is no different. Wal-Mart is considered a retail giant and one of the largest companies in the world. It has grown as a staple in America as well as on an international platform, touching base in countries such as Japan and China. Wal-Mart is the largest retailer and the largest company in the history of the world in the way it conducts business operations. Wal-Mart management has implemented ways to overcome the challenges the present the ethical and social responsibilities with regard to globalization. The author will breakdown how the organization deals with ethical perspectives within this global icon. Wal-Mart is known around the world as a company that offers discounted merchandise to its customers to help them save money.
The organization was built on values and moral and its’ own unique corporate culture. One of the key elements to all of the rules of Wal-Mart is respect for everyone, customers, suppliers, and associates. Wal-Mart was founded by Sam Walton in 1962 and he would encourage the associates of the company to follow the 10 foot rule, which is whenever an associate comes within 10 feet of a customer they would smile, greet them, and ask if they can help the customer. One of the ethical and social responsible issues that Wal-Mart deals with because it is a global organization is that the organization has found that its’ formula does not fit every culture. Wal-Mart failed to become the successful store in Germany that it is in America. Germany is not the only country that the organization has problems in.
They also have problems in South Korea and Japan because even the low prices and large selection of merchandise they are having a hard time competing with the chain markets in these countries and the shopper habits. The sales clerks in German Wal-Mart’s are no longer required to smile at customers because it is often interpreted as flirting. German customers were irritated by the store merchandising, premium products are put at eye level in Wal-Mart stores while discount products are on the top or bottom shelves and the stalls were placed in a way that had the customer spending more time in the store. The grocery business is a struggle for Wal-Mart in other counties because either they cannot beat the prices of other discount markets or the type of food does not meet the countries culture. For example, in the German cultural, they purchase meat from a butcher and Wal-Mart sells packaged meat, they do not do well in this department.
Some other examples are the mistake of trying to sell golf clubs in Brazil, which is a country that is not familiar with golf, or trying to sell ice skates in Mexico. This global organization has significant responsibilities to consider in business perspective in order to succeed in different communities. Opening a company in another country is like immigrating to a different country. For an individual, immigrating to a new country is about learning new laws, cultures, and values. Global organizations are responsible to learn, value the new laws, and respect new cultures to survive in different countries. Considering values of the new community must be the main goal of a global organization. It is essential that global organizations are able to create a culture that considers everyone’s rights and respect different cultural values.
For a huge global company with such a great success in business it is surprising to learn that Wal-Mart is recently faces with different ethical challenges while working in different countries. According to Foroohar “a New York Times investigation revealed that Wal-Mart’s Mexico subsidiary paid $24 million in bribes to local officials to sidestep regulations and obtain construction permits for new stores” (www.time.com). According to the article, the CEO and different members of the company knew about the situation and did not talk about it. Just because a company knows how to be successful in making the sales goals does not mean it can be successful in different communities with different cultures. The company should have a great understanding and respect of the new community in order to continue to work there.
Ethical perspectives change in different cultures and communities. Each community has different rules and values. These ethical issues not only will make problems for organizations financially, but also take away the trust from the company. Customers, investors, and stockholders only continue to do business with a company that they can trust, and feel safe to invest their money in. Sometimes organizations may make some changes in their cultures to be able to work in different countries. Global organizations should be able to create a strong culture and ethics that protect different cultures and fit their values. Wal-Mart has created and filled several key positions to further support it global compliance, ethics, investigations and legal functions.
The company has also hires in-market anti-corruption directors in nearly all of its markets, including Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Africa, and India (www.walmart.com). Wal-Mart now has a global compliance action step in place to strengthen its stores abroad. They have taken a number of actions with respect to its process, procedures and people. They also have FCPA compliance action steps for an improved organizational structure including communication and training to third party due diligence. They have also made compliance efforts in Mexico that has conducted compliance procedures training for the majority of Wal-Mart de Mexico y Centroamerica’s Home Office associates.

"Were it not for the Buddhadharma, says Charles Johnson in his preface to Turning the Wheel, "I'm convinced that, as a black American and an artist, I would not have been able to successfully negotiate my last half century of life in this country. Or at least not with a high level of creative productivity." In this collection of provocative and intimate essays, Johnson writes of the profound connection between Buddhism and creativity, and of the role of Eastern philosophy in the quest for a free and thoughtful life.
In 1926, W. E. B. Du Bois asked African-Americans what they would most want were the color line miraculously forgotten. In Turning the Wheel, Johnson sets out to explore this question by examining his experiences both as a writer and as a practitioner of Buddhism.
He looks at basic Buddhist principles and practices, demonstrating how Buddhism is both the most revolutionary and most civilized of possible human choices. He discusses fundamental Buddhist practices such as the Eightfold Path, Taming the Mind, and Sangha and illuminates their place in the American Civil Rights movement.
Johnson moves from spiritual guides to spiritual nourishment: writing. In essays touching on the role of the black intellectual, Uncle Tom's Cabin, and Ralph Ellison, Johnson uses tools of Buddhist thinking to clarify difficult ideas. Powerful and revelatory, these essays confirm that writing and reading, along with Buddhism, are the basic components that make up a thoughtful life.
Charles Johnson is a novelist, essayist, literary scholar, philosopher, cartoonist, screenwriter, and professor emeritus at the University of Washington in Seattle. A MacArthur fellow, his fiction includes Night Hawks, Dr. King’s Refrigerator, Dreamer, Faith and the Good Thing, and Middle Passage, for which he won the National Book Award. In 2002 he received the Arts and Letters Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He lives in Seattle.
