 Sheryl Sandberg is pictured here seating with other Silicon Valley business leaders attending a meeting of President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness High Growth Business and Entrepreneurship Listening and Action Session at the VMaware headquarters on August 2, 2011 in Palo Alto, California. They were speaking with entrepreneurs about how public and private sectors can partner to create jobs through innovation.

Discussions like the above-mentioned discussion occur at the top levels of government and business. At the level where most people place trust in their children's education it is lip service, or it isn't pushed creatively. In the real world children who benefit from these environments have creative parents who learn where to steer their children whose interests spurn their parents towards these centers of government, and business, entertainment and sports advancement. There are particular paths children have to be directed towards to excel in this country. There is no way around it. It is not that it is a secret. It isn't. It is veiled by ignorance, and deliberate sabotage, and that sabotage has two heads: the parent's outlook on life, and the education system's unwillingness to teach students' spirit, and their intellects.

If anything is to change in this arena it will only come from the initiative of the parents, and the parent's willingness to teach themselves out of a consumer's mentality! - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 5.30.13

Forbes' 9th of 12 Power Women of May 2013

Facebook's COO, Sheryl Sandberg, in photo by James Martin, was wooed from Google in 2008. Her base salary is a mere $300,00 a year, in addition to 1.9 million shares worth $72 million. The real money, as they say, will come as her restricted stock vests. 

Facebook's COO incited a new conversation on feminism in the workplace with her March 2013 book, "Lean In: Women, Work and the Will to Lead." The manifesto sold nearly 150,000 copies in its first week and has held the top non-fiction spot on bestseller lists since. But Sandberg's biggest success of the year may have happened right in Menlo Park. After adding ads to its mobile news feed, Facebook earned more U.S. mobile revenue than any other publisher in 2012, with an 18.4% share of the entire market. The April release of "Home," the new Facebook phone, will reportedly allow companies to send advertising directly to users' smartphones even if the home screen is locked. 2013 SPOTLIGHT: One year after Facebook's initial public offering, the company's stock is down roughly 30%. - {source}
