Billy Joel has become the only non-classical musician to be honored with a portrait at Steinway Hall in New York City. A portrait of Joel – who also happens to be one of only two living musicians featured in the gallery – will hang next to a painting of the late Russian pianist Vladimir Horowitz, one of the songwriter's musical idols.
"I don't know how crazy he'd be about having me that close to him," Joel told the BBC, noting that he met Horowitz once on the street in Manhattan back in the Seventies. "I had long hair and a black leather jacket and I said: 'Maestro!' and he thought I was gonna mug him. He kind of ran away."

Steinway Hall is the headquarters of Steinway & Sons, the makers of some of the world's finest pianos. "When you find a great Steinway, it's a phenomenal piano," says Joel. "There's a quirkiness in individually produced pianos that I appreciate, sort of like handmade guitars."

Jacksonville Daily Progress
It's that time of year again when Jacksonville firefighters and other city employees become de facto "elves" for Santa Claus and start preparing the city for holiday events such as the annual Christmas parade and the Lighting of Hazel Tilton Park.
What could possibly make for a more Holly Jolly Christmas?
The 13th Annual "Lighting of Hazel Tilton Park" takes place at 7 p.m. Thursday. Dec. 6 at the corner of Bolton and Highway 79 – immediately following the 6:15 p.m. Old-Fashioned Christmas parade, which, incidentally, is themed "Christmas Memories," officials said.
The park lighting event, sponsored by both the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce and the Jacksonville Fire Department, is viewed by numerous people each year, according to Kayla Stephenson, Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce Project coordinator.
A rain date for the lighting event has been scheduled for 7 p.m. Monday, Dec. 10, Stephenson said.
The story: Several years ago a fund raiser organized by Anita Hutson volunteered to raise money for a city Nativity scene, Stephenson said.
Local churches and citizens raised several thousand dollars in just a few weeks, she said. The Nativity scene along with other holiday decorations makes this one of the most visible parks in Jacksonville, according to Stephenson.
Anyone with questions about either event should contact the Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce at 903-586-2217 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

First, Inhofe reportedly scares "the crap" out of people. Seriously.
Back in October, Inhofe decided to land his airplane at a south Texas airport on a runway with a big, yellow "X" on it. Now, depending on your familiarity with aviation, big yellow Xs on runways could theoretically mean one of two things: "here be treasure" or "this runway is closed, please don't try to land here."
Which option did Inhofe choose?
Of course, the construction workers on the runway (who may or may not have been digging for treasure) were not delighted to see a 76-year-old climate-change denier in a twin-engine Cessna bearing down upon them and their vehicles.
"He scared the crap out of us," Sidney Boyd, who was working on the runway at the time told the FAA, in a recorded phone conversation posted on The Smoking Gun on April 13. "He damn near hit a big red dually, hopscotched over him and landed on the runway anyway."
Of the dually driver, Boyd said: "I think he actually wet his britches, he was scared to death. I mean, hell, he started trying to head for the side of the runway. The pilot could see him, or he should have been able to, he was right on him."
Apparently, the workers were cramping Mountain's style, since Boyd told the FAA, after landing, Inhofe came to the workers and (we imagine while wearing "Top Gun" shades while a congressional staffer carried a boom box blasting "Danger Zone") demanded to know, "What the hell is this? I'm supposed to have unlimited airspace."
To avoid enforcement action by the FAA, the senator completed a remedial training program.
After the audio came out, Inhofe released a statement saying: "This is an old story, and the FAA and I have long considered the matter closed. … I have completed the program required by the FAA, and this matter is over."
About that second story: Inhofe recently said he believed the November election that ousted former Ivory Coast leader Laurent Gbagbo was fraudulent. Gbagbo, an evangelical Christian who is friends with Inhofe, apparently agreed, because for the past several months, he refused to step down to make way for the elected leader, a Muslim named Alassane Ouattara.
Gbagbo's refusal to step aside sparked fighting between the two camps, with French United Nations troops backing Ouattara's forces and Inhofe backing Gbagbo. Eventually, Gbagbo was arrested.
Inhofe, who had regularly visited Ivory Coast and Gbagbo prior to the election, said he probably would not go back and was quoted in The Oke as saying, "I would have helped to have tried to assist them in escaping if I could have. But the French were just relentless." That's right: Inhofe said the French military was "relentless."
Moving on, could it be that the reason Inhofe didn't fly in Maverick-style to rescue his wingman Gbagbo is because he finally pushed the system too far? Was it because he was grounded by some bureaucrat who just doesn't understand that Inhofe is one hell of an instinctive pilot — maybe too good — who is just testing his own limits and the limits of those around him, pushing the envelope between exhilaration and fear, finding that place in his mind that screams "this is madness" and pushing further, until consciousness and dream blend into one and the world narrows down to a singularity of utter clarity, and that now because of some desk jockey, he has to watch helplessly from the sidelines, unable to fly in and rescue his buddy during his greatest hour of need?
Nah. We didn't think so.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP/NewsChannel 5) - There's a sea change going on in Music City -- and the Country Music Association Awards are in the middle of it.
When country music's biggest stars take the stage Thursday night in Nashville, you'll see many of your favorites from the last decade. But new faces are dominating the genre as country's fan base shifts to a younger-skewing audience.
From Taylor Swift's army of empowered young women to the power-drinking party boys who prefer lead nominee Eric Church and Jason Aldean, country's audience is much different than it was 10 years ago. Church benefited with five nominations, including album and male vocalist of the year.
Country performers who have tasted their most significant success within the last five years outnumber the more established stars. Those newer artists received the lion's share of the nominations.
Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood return as hosts for the fifth straight year at the 46th annual show, which will be broadcast live from Bridgestone Arena.
Pop singer Kelly Clarkson is nominated for female vocalist of the year along with Underwood, Martina McBride, Miranda Lambert, and Taylor Swift. Clarkson will also perform along with Jason Aldean, Dierks Bentley and Little Big Town.

---- — As I reflected on the terrible event in Boston, we must admit that evil is very strong in the world. Prayers go out to all those in Boston. In a world that honors running over your neighbor for personal gain, evil remains very strong in the many ways that people hurt each other.
However, in the midst of this pain, stands the powerful light of the Church. In our local area, several churches have responded to raise money for Relay for Life, to feed the hungry, to help orphans all over the world, to send missionaries all over the world, and to help many places like Camp Victory. Wonderful things are being done by many different Christian denominations and many different faith communities. I am truly amazed at the wonderful work being done by the churches in our local areas and in the world no matter the size of the church.
In June, I am working with several United Church of Christ churches to foster a peace camp where we will bring youth together from the countries of Africa, Germany, Cheyenne Indian reservation in South Dakota, and Pennsylvania to live together for two weeks and work on peace projects. They will then go to Washington D.C. to meet with elected officials.
In the Church, we teach people how to love each other, respect each other, and how to work together. We teach values that are different from the world. It is wonderful to see Christian denominations working together with other faith traditions in many different causes. Many other faith traditions are also doing wonderful things to create peace and love in the world.
Thus, we need to remember that while the world may appear dark there is a very strong light shining in the world helping to foster peace, love, and joy throughout the world. At times like this, we need to remember: The light always outshines the darkness. Evil knows that its time is short.

In Detail
High-end email and groupware is a domain where only few vendors can provide solutions. It is where companies like HP, Novell, or Scalix offer reliable and scalable products. And Scalix is the only one that has licensed parts under a free and open-source license (Scalix Public License). Scalix runs on Linux, is free for up to 10 users, offers a lot of possible features, ranging from caldav or syncml to clusters, and supports any client. Its flexible architecture gives you the freedom to choose your hardware platform, desktop client, security, directory, and storage infrastructure.
"With over one million mailboxes deployed, 140,000 Community Edition downloads, 5,500 community forum members and almost 700 corporate customers, the Scalix collaborating platform is the most field-proven Linux e-mail and group calendaring solution available to enterprise." —The Scalix website
With the right know-how, Scalix can be managed easily, and several thousand mailboxes are possible on a single server, Web GUIs and command-line tools help the administrator, and Scalix integrates easily with other professional tools, such as OpenVPN, Nagios, and others.
During its history of almost 20 years, many tools and programs have been developed for Scalix to help you with your routine work. While the official documentation has several thousand pages, which are not all up to date, this book gives a detailed overview from installation to advanced setups and best practices for configuration and security. It will help you implement and manage both the free open-source Community Edition and the Enterprise Edition of Scalix.The author provides both a concise description of the features of Scalix and an easy-to-use starting guide for those new to administering it. By bringing together material that might take days to find online this book is a real timesaver.
Install, configure, and administer your Scalix Collaboration Platform email and groupware server.
This book is a well-illustrated and practical guide to implementing and understanding Scalix. It includes exhaustive references to the relevant online documents and RFCs.
Who this book is for
This book is written for Linux administrators who wish to set up an email server for businesses or who wish to switch to Scalix from another email server. Scalix can be used very easily by beginners; however, advanced strategies and administrative tasks are difficult to learn and this book will help you master them all.

The Extra Man Reviewed by Jeff Meyers (Movie)
Louis Ives (Dano) is a wannabe transvestite and F. Scott Fitzgerald devotee whos dismissed from his university teaching job after being discovered in a bra. Moving to New York City to become a writer, he rents a room from the flamboyant and imperious Henry Harrison (Kline), a failed playwright and aging gigolo. What follows is a tale of the insane leading the bland, as Henry teaches Louis how to become an extra man and Louis struggles to reconcile his sexual desires with his wish to be seen as a gentleman. Escorting wealthy elderly women, pining for a navel-gazing co-worker (Katie Holmes in serious need of a meal), and colliding into a rogues gallery of misfits, Louis slowly learns to shed his inhibitions and embrace the possibilities of life.
The Virginity Hit Reviewed by Corey Hall (Movie)
The Virginity Hit was shot entirely with handheld DV cameras in formats of varying quality, from lush widescreen to scratchy stuff meant to look like Internet video. The title refers to the most excellent naked devil-lady water bong the gang uses only for very special occasions; namely when one of them successful pops his first nut. Gradually that magical piece of paraphernalia gets a good bit of use, despite these guys being unappealing goons, until only the perpetually shy and brainy Matt (Matt Bennett) has yet to inhale the sweet toke of victory. Despite being a mega-nerd, Matt actually has a smart and adorable girlfriend (Nicole Weaver), but their plans for that special moment keep getting interrupted by their nosy, camera-happy friends. Worse, Nicole has a few too many Jell-O shots at a frat party rager, and allegedly hooks up with a slick college guy. Dude, that blows. This act of heinous treachery sends Matt and his adopted brother/BFF Zach on a series of increasingly baroque escapades in order to lose Matts cherry, including road trips, petty larceny, assault, breaking and entering, and other harmless pranks. Don't think; just go with it.
Kisses Reviewed by Jeff Meyers (Movie)
When his dad punches his mom in a fit of anger, young Dylan (Shane Curry) fights back, only to unleash the full force of his fathers brutal fury. With the help of the girl next door, Kylie (Kelly ONeill), he flees, and the two hitch a ride with a friendly barge-driver. This sends them on a runaway odyssey into Dublin, where they search for Dylans older brother, encounter a busker and sympathetic young woman, go on an illicit shopping spree (who says money cant buy happiness?) and, possibly, run into Bob Dylan. But as night settles in, the kids discover that for every good-natured person whos willing to help them, the streets are filled with those who would do them harm. Simultaneously sweet and tough, Kisses is like Before Sunrise as imagined by Roddy Doyle, an incisively written drama with strangely magical moments and memorably offbeat characters thats never afraid to cross into unsettling instances of danger. Dylan and Kylies developing relationship is both authentic and moving, a tribute to extraordinary resilience and open-heartedness of kids, and their inevitable naïveté. Its also the glue that holds Dalys film together, as he spices their foul-mouthed dialogue with sparks of humor and humanity.
Valhalla Rising Reviewed by Paul Knoll (Movie)
Set between the eighth and 11th centuries against the stark, gloomy and filth-ridden world of pre-Christian Denmark, were introduced to One Eye (Mads Mikkelsen, the villain in Casino Royale). Hes a fearsome and mute warrior and slave for a Norse clan, and he disposes of his opponents with frightening efficiency while earning coin for his captors. One Eye is sold off, but after the sale he gets free of his shackles (literally) and makes a bloodbath of his new owners, except for a young boy named Are (Maarten Stevenson), the one sympathetic person whod bring him food and water. Up till this point, Valhalla Rising plays like some sparse deconstructionist version of Gladiator hyper-realistic violence, stunningly filmed desolate landscapes and little to no dialogue. One Eye soon encounters an army of Vikings whove been sent on a holy mission to spread Christianity and have been slaughtering the Danes (who were pagans) as part of their crusade. The Vikings enlist One Eye in their religious journey promising him that his sins will be forgiven once they reach Jerusalem. Theyre barely on their boat before the journey turns sinister.
Alamar Reviewed by Jeff Meyers (Movie)
A slow-burn that shows us connections between whats real Not quite a docudrama (theres little drama here) and not quite a documentary, this personal travelogue of sorts is a lovely and gorgeously wide-shot exercise in subtle activism, immersing the viewer in an idyllic world, as seen through the eyes of a young boy. Natan is the unquestionably beautiful son of Italian mother Roberta Palombini and Mayan father Jorge Machado. From the couples opening voiceover we learn that their relationship ended because they lived in two very different worlds. Its the only part of Pedro González-Rubios film that relies on words to tell its story. From there we watch as city-dwelling Roberta prepares her son for a summer with Jorge, a fisherman who lives in a small hut on stilts in the Banco Chinchorro, an immense coral reef off the Mexican coast. Subtly fictionalized by González-Rubio, Alamar is a gentle, unhurried and observant examination of love, separation and the bonds between man and nature, and father and son.
Soul Kitchen Reviewed by Jeff Meyers (Movie)
The Soul Kitchen in question is both a restaurant and state of mind. A low-rent grease-pit eatery run by rumpled but cuddly Zinos Kazantsakis (Adam Bousdoukos), its far from health code-compliant, but the regulars like their beer, fried food and potato salad from a bucket. Nevertheless, even this threadbare slice of heaven is destined to come crashing down. The tax man or woman, as the case may be comes calling, Zinos girlfriend Nadine (Pheline Roggan) takes off for China, his ex-con brother Ilias (Moritz Bleibtreu) shows up looking for a work-release job, a violently temperamental but brilliant chef (the amazing Birol Ünel) drives away his customers, he slips a disk in his back, and a sleazy Aryan real-estate speculator (Wotan Wilke Möhring) sics health inspectors on him in order to steal the property. To say complications ensue would be redundant.
Im Still Here Reviewed by Corey Hall (Movie)
You may remember when infamously intense method actor Joaquin Phoenix had a prolonged tabloid meltdown, shambling around like a drug-addled caveman through a series of embarrassing public appearances, as he became increasingly unhinged. "Im Still Here" is the allegedly real account of Phoenixs career suicide. Looking like a homeless Zach Galifianakis, with a huge mountain man beard growth, Joaquin stalks the Hollywood Hills, sporting a chaotic, expansive, dirty mangle of hair. In between coke binges, he starts spewing rambling, anti-showbiz diatribes to anyone within earshot, as he goes through the motions of promoting a film he swears will be his final film work, except for the camera crew following his every misstep. What little plot there is involves the effort to track down P. Diddy, or whatever the hell hes calling himself these days. For all this, Phoenix will likely find himself in the same career jail that Mickey Rourke once inhabited.
Ajishin Sushi & Noodle Reviewed by Todd Abrams (Restaurant)
You can choose among about 20 different nigiri, priced between $1.50 and $3 apiece, and about 20 rolls at $2.50 to $6. Missing are the fantastic and pricey specialty rolls you find at so many of the hip sushi lounges catering more to a Western palate. The nigiri are well-constructed, with mildly sweet rice, excellent seafood and wasabi paste already incorporated into the bite. But soup lovers have reason to rejoice! Ajishins udon soup is extraordinary. There are also a few cold noodle dishes where the flavor of soba is better illustrated. Arashi, for instance, combines soba, grated yam, seaweed and green onion in a tangy dressing for a deep, almost smoky noodle salad.

New Simpson-Bowles Plan Faces Same Old Political Challenges
The former heads of Obama's deficit-cutting commission want to cut deficits by an additional $2.5 trillion over 10 years.
The names Alan Simpson and Erskine Bowles have become synonymous with deficit-cutting, as the two men have been calling for spending cuts and revenue increases for years. Now the men who headed up President Barack Obama's 2010 National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform are once again leading the fiscal policy discussion, with another deficit-cutting plan. But in a politically polarized Washington, it could easily fall on deaf ears as in years past, even from these two highly respected men.
[LIVE BLOG: Man Hunt in Boston Unfolds]
On Friday, Simpson and Bowles offered details to their February deficit reduction plan, which aims to achieve a total of $5.2 trillion in deficit-cutting over the next 10 years. Simpson, a former Republican senator, and Bowles, a former White House Chief of Staff for President Bill Clinton, build upon deficit-reduction steps Washington has already taken in recent years. Their plan would end the automatic sequestration cuts enacted in March. In addition to $2.7 trillion in savings, Simpson-Bowles would further cut $2.5 trillion from the deficit.
At an event unveiling the plan's details on Friday, Bowles said lawmakers have already "done the easy stuff" and the "stupid stuff" in cutting deficits, but that now it's time for tougher choices.
"Now we have to get serious and do the really hard stuff that could really structurally make a difference – a long-term difference," he said.
[SIMPSON: Country Must Act to Address Debt]
That "hard stuff" includes a broad array of spending cuts and tax code reform proposals. Bowles and Simpson want to reform Medicare and Medicaid by reducing drug costs, reducing provider payments and increasing premiums for high earners. Altogether, they would cut healthcare spending by an additional $585 billion during the next 10 years, above and beyond savings already enacted. Their plan also "eliminates or scales back" tax loopholes, seeks to reform farm subsidies and higher education spending, and further limit discretionary spending.
The proposal is more modest than the original Simpson-Bowles plan, which would have cut deficits by more than $6 billion over 10 years. It also offers a smaller proportion of savings from new revenues than the original Simpson-Bowles plan. That proposal failed in the House of Representatives and never gained unequivocal White House support.
However, it is more ambitious than Obama's 2014 fiscal year budget proposal, released last week. Simpson-Bowles 2.0 would cut deficits by $2.5 trillion, while the president's new budget would have only reduced the deficit by $1.8 trillion over 10 years. Bowles spoke approvingly on Friday of the steps toward compromise in Obama's budget, which notably included a move toward using the chained CPI in calculating Social Security benefits. Still, Bowles and Simpson don't believe that budget goes far enough.
[STUDY: Four Years on, Recession Still a Bummer]
"While the president's proposal is a step in the right direction, it does not go as far as we believe is necessary to put our nation's fiscal house in order," the men said in a statement last week on Obama's 2014 budget proposal.
They also took aim on Friday at budget plans proposed by the House and Senate, saying those proposals were primarily intended to score partisan points.
"Both of them were more political documents than they were reality," said Bowles.
A highly polarized Congress has made budget passage impossible in recent years. The Senate has not successfully passed a budget since 2009. Given those difficulties, a new plan from Bowles and Simpson – especially one that aims to change popular programs like Medicare, Social Security and farm subsidies – could be difficult to pass at best, and impossible at worst.
[READ: How a Slip of the Finger Changed the Economic Policy Debate]
Still, the two men leading the deficit reduction charge in Washington say they are optimistic, having already met with lawmakers to discuss their new plan.
"We've had some really good discussions, and I'm encouraged by that," said Bowles, adding he and Simpson will do everything they possibly can in order to "get some kind of bipartisan, nonpartisan, reasonable, responsible decision that will put America's fiscal house in order."

David K. Williams, Contributor
I write about my life and business lessons.
Have you ever talked to a salesperson and felt like you're facing a foe? The author of our Fishbowl Blog, Robert Lockard, recently had that experience. He called a company and the salesperson insisted, fairly aggresively, in trying to sell him something he didn't want. The discussion went downhill as he pushed the high-pressure salesman to give him what he was looking for, but not more.
"The whole experience felt more like a confrontation than a conversation," he said.
Rob eventually made the original purchase he'd planned. However, he hasn't forgotten the arduous process of getting the salesperson to sell him only what he had come there to buy.
The experience got me thinking more deeply about the relationship between buyers and sellers.
Are buyers and sellers adversaries or friends? In most scenarios, while they likely wouldn't refer to each other as "enemies," they are clearly playing for opposite teams.
Today's customers are savvy, and they know they have more options available to them than ever before. While some organizations boast about having a product "that sells itself," it is never true. No organization can afford to ignore the importance of a positive interaction, if not a long-term partnership or even a friendship in making a selling relationship work.
So how can you make a selling relationship successful? With credit to Hellin Knighting of Australia, from Top Sales Techniques, here are 10 helpful tips:
1) Prepare
Before you make your first contact with a potential client, research their business thoroughly, understand their industry and even take a look at what their competitors are doing. Also, do a little web research on the person you'll be talking to.
2) Hone your People Skills
Some people find that meeting new people comes naturally to them, but others find it surprisingly difficult. But in sales, always remember you are the "face and personality" of your company. There are many courses that can help you develop and practice greater people and relationship skills that will help you do the best job possible of carrying this responsibility and opportunity well.
3) First Impressions Count
First impressions are important. The majority of people form their first impression within 15 seconds of meeting you. To feel confident, you need to look confident. Make sure you are clean, well-groomed are dressed appropriately for the mood and tone of the organization you are preparing to meet.
4) Start a Positive Initial Relationship
Once you've made initial contact, you need to build on and reinforce any client relationship. It is important to listen and understand your customer's business needs. When you have earned a client's trust, you are on the right track to making them an ongoing customer.
5) Build the Partner Relationship
To build the relationship into a partnership and even a friendship, it is important to maintain regular contact with the clients you serve. If you don't, they will lose trust in you and will potentially leave for a competitor. Reach out to your customer regularly to touch base. Also make sure they know how to reach you on email, work number and mobile, and that they know they can count on you to respond promptly.
6) Listen to Your Client
Your client might mention a problem that they are currently experiencing at work. If you can solve this problem, don't be afraid to give them your professional advice, even if they don't ask for your help. Ideally, you should offer your advice even when it involves solutions or products beyond the products your company sells. Strive to be as confident and proficient as possible in finding solutions to your customers' needs.
7) Sell the Benefits, not the Products
Don't be shy about selling the benefits of your product or service. Remember that your product or service is benefiting your customers' business needs. You are helping them gain efficiencies, savings, and flexibility that will make their work life more rewarding and profitable. These benefits are part of the service you are providing for them.
8) Don't Rush the Sale
Never make your customer feel they are being rushed into a sale. If you can empower your customer and remember that they control the level and the pace of the working relationship, you run far less risk of losing the client to anyone else.
9) Remember that a Promise Promise is a Promise
If you promise to do something, perhaps a favor relating back to your services/product, make sure you follow through. If there is a deadline, make sure your solution reaches your client at least a day before the promised delivery date. If you're forced to extend the deadline due to circumstances beyond your control, contact the client immediately to make them aware, and let them know what to expect, and what you will do to remedy the situation as quickly as you possibly can.
10) Be an Expert
Never forget that you're the expert in your field, particularly in your client's eyes, so be sure the client knows they can feel comfortable turning to you for advice. You should be honest when a question exceeds your experience or knowledge, but be trustworthy in helping to find the right advice and good practice wisdom for the customer you serve.
In summary, today's customers are smart buyers. They look for clues—a vibe—an indication that a company is willing to respect their needs and protect their agenda before making a decision about whether to do business or not.
A long-term partnership requires yet another set of decisions. A vendor will need to show consistent positive investment in the relationship over an extended period of time for this level of commitment and assurance to occur.
This is the approach Fishbowl takes. Our company culture is one of a small business that helps other small businesses prosper. We grow together. Fishbowl salespeople genuinely consider their customers to be friends, which instills the desire to truly "stretch" to meet their customers' needs.
In summary—while buyers and sellers sit on opposite sides of the table, they should never be adversaries. An antagonistic relationship results in lost deals, or a one-time purchase at best. However, an aligned relationship—based on meeting a customer's needs—can create a long-term buying relationship, and in many cases can create an allegiance (or even a friendship) for life.
Additional reporting for this article was provided by Fishbowl President Mary Michelle Scott and Fishbowl writer Robert Lockard.

Nothing makes me take my business else where more than an unfulfilled promise. I think some salesmen think a promise is a few product they can through out anywhere and to whomever they need to make a sale.
I think number 5 is a great point, you can really tell when some one is really building a relationship after they got the sell.
I love #7 – sell benefits, not the products. Back when I worked in the advertising agency world we always quoted the old cliche, "Sell the sizzle, not the stake." This helped us remember that were weren't selling the product, but rather the benefits of that product. That concept has stuck with me my entire career. Thanks for making it one of your 10 tips.
Thank you for sharing your "secret sauce" for record breaking success.
In this brave new transparent world – people work and collaborate with people they respect, trust and like. Selling is obsolete. Offer your goods and services with open hands and a servant heart to people you respect, trust and like and enjoy the day.
Bottom line is that in selling you are dealing with unique and specific individuals. Adaptation is required to be successful and to know how to adapt to each individual you need to know them, but more importantly care about them. We are all buyers and this information is great for everyone to know. Thank you!
Great Article! Secrets that lead to success. I like your thoughts around "aligned relationships".
I absolutely hate talking to the aggressive "sales people". If I can avoid them I will. So hearing something like this makes me wish that every company with sales people would train them like this.
Thanks for sharing Dave!
Number 6 resonates with me very much. People are so busy with their own lives, so many thoughts, checklists, and tasks running through their mind they don't spend time actually listening. When someone listens they can more understand what needs to happen for the sale instead of a general I need to sell. Great work!
Great article, very much spoke to me directly, .. Thanks Dave.
Excellent points all but I particularly liked numbers 5 and 6. If we indeed listen to our customers and respect their needs and wants then right up front we are establishing a better relationship that will last throughout the entire "customer journey." That journey starts with first impressions as mentioned above whether that impression is from direct contact with someone in the company, the company's web site or even word-of-mouth. Establishing something good up front will facilitate better experiences for both parties through the sales, support and renew parts of the journey. Well done.

GREAT!!! The taste and texture were quite wonderful. I left the butter in slightly larger pieces, which I think adds to flakiness, and I got eleven 3-inch biscuits out of this recipe. The first person who tried them said they were much better than his wife's, and he asked for the recipe! I've tried several other popular biscuit recipes from this site, and I like this one the best.
YUMMY!!! Wonderful -used butter flavored crisco and turned out perfect. Should have made them bigger so it would look like I only ate 2 when I really ate 4.
I lost my grandmother's recipe for tea biscuits and now that she's gone I thought I'd never have them again. This comes pretty close! I'm used to English tea biscuits that are sweeter or more like scones so here's my modifications: I used 1/2 c. of butter instead of shortening, added 1/2 c. of sugar, 1/2 c. of raisns, and 1/4 tsp. of active dry yeast. I didn't knead the dough or cut it. I just dropped it onto the cookie sheet by tablespoons. They baked up nice and brown. If you add the raisins just butter them, if not just add butter and jelly and serve with tea!

Concert Review: SOJA @ the Cabooze Minneapolis
The final chapter in the Strength to Survive story is about to be written. It started with a teaser to promote the release of their new album and is ending with this review of their show at the Cabooze in Minneapolis on February 19th, 2012. Just because this book is about to be done doesn't mean there will be no more books written about SOJA in the future. The relationship built here is as strong as their message and I want to let everyone know; I am not done yet.

Tyler Lewis helped N.C. State make the NCAA tournament this season and helped T.J. Warren win the ACC player of the year award but the sophomore point guard will finish his college career elsewhere.
Lewis announced Saturday that he will transfer from N.C. State after two seasons. Lewis father, Rick, said his son made a personal decision and is looking for a situation that best fits his skill set.
We appreciate State giving Tyler the opportunity to play and they honored his scholarship during the coaching change, Rick Lewis said Saturday. This was a difficult decision. We wished it would have worked out.
Lewis, a 5-foot-11 point guard from Statesville, started the final 14 games of the season and helped the Wolfpack reach the NCAA tournament for the third straight season.
Warrens scoring numbers went up more than 25 percent when Lewis was inserted into the starting lineup after an 84-70 loss at North Carolina on Feb. 1. Warren, who led the ACC in scoring, averaged 28.6 points per game after Lewis replaced freshman Cat Barber in the starting lineup, compared to 22.3 per game before.
With Warren set to enter the NBA draft, Lewis is ready to move on as well. Lewis had modest averages on the season, 4.4 points and 3.8 assists per game, but finished with 135 assists and 38 turnovers, which set a new single-season school record for assist-to-turnover ratio.
Id like to thank N.C. State, my teammates and coaches, and the Wolfpack Nation for the past two years, Lewis said in a statement released by the school. While I will be finishing my career at another school, I will always be grateful for the opportunity I had at N.C. State.
Lewis came to N.C. State with Warren and Rodney Purvis, who transferred to Connecticut after the 2012-13 season; all three were McDonalds All-Americans. None of the three will be with the program next season. Lewis is the seventh player to transfer early out of the program since Mark Gottfried was hired in April 2011.
With Barber, also a McDonalds All-American, returning for his sophomore season, plus the addition of Alabama transfer Trevor Lacey, there was a potential logjam for minutes at the point next season.
Barber, who averaged 8.5 points and finished with 3.5 assists per game, said before N.C. States loss to Saint Louis in the Round of 64 that he and Lewis had become friends during the season and there was no animosity between the two teammates, despite the competition for minutes.
Me and Tyler, were great friends, Barber said in Orlando, Fla., before N.C. States 83-80 loss to Saint Louis on March 20. We dont get into whos starting and whos coming off the bench. Were not going to throw hate at each other about that.
With Lewis and Warren moving on, N.C. State will return Barber, Desmond Lee and Ralston Turner in the backcourt next season and will add Lacey and freshman twins Cody and Caleb Martin. Forwards BeeJay Anya, Lennard Freeman and Kyle Washington will return with addition of freshman Abdul-Malik Abu.
Lewis committed to N.C. State under former coach Sidney Lowe after his junior season at Forsyth Country Day in 2011. A year later, he led Oak Hill Academy to a 44-0 record.

PLATTSBURGH — "Ooh sha sha. We got to live together."
The refrain is from "Everyday People," a 1969 hit for Sly and the Family Stone, a multiracial conscious-raising band, rocking the San Francisco Bay area.
Dr. Nell Irvin Painter of New Russia in Essex County grew up there, in Oakland. There, love American-style was not just black and white.
"There, the big hysteria about race mixing was with Asians," said Painter, a Princeton University professor emerita and the author of "The History of White People," "Creating Black Americans" and "Southern History Across the Color Line."
"The case I remember was Noriko Sawada and Harry Bridges. She's Japanese. During World War II, her family spent three years in an Arizona internment camp."
Like other Japanese Americans and others with "Foreign Enemy Ancestry" on the West Coast, the Sawadas were relocated due to Executive Order 9066 signed by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in 1942.
Harry, a white labor leader instrumental in the establishment of the International Longshoreman's and Warehouseman's Union, met Noriko, a labor and civil-rights activist.
They dated and fell in love. He popped the question. She decided on Pearl Harbor Day nuptials. Their 1958 obstacle was a Nevada law that prohibited interracial marriages.
Place plays a role in where race hysteria is focused, according to Painter.
"As far the states laws regulating who is what, the stigmatized part is the Negro and the white part is what is left over."
In Virginia and other southern states, she said, the laws that defined race were frequently changed — blood quantum fluctuated between 1/16 and 1/32 Native-American ancestry without any traceable African ancestry.
"How do you figure it out?" Painter asked. "The point I would stress, the laws were against interracial marriage, not interracial sex. Surely, they didn't enforce any laws against interracial sex. That tended to protect the rights of men, particularly white men. Making it respectable was the problem ... for property, for standing."

AKRON, Ohio —
Following his state finals appearance in the winter, Jeffersonville wrestler Gavan Jolley-Little won his second national championship at the Asics's Cadet Fila World Team Trials at the University of Akron.
The championship was the first for him in Greco-Roman-style wrestling and he defeated wrestlers from Virginia, Wisconsin, California, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Illinois and Ohio to take the crown.
In his first three matches, Jolley-Little won by a combined 17-0. In the championship, he defeated Zach Wood of Michigan 8-5 after being down 2-0 in the third period.
Jolley-Little also finished sixth in the freestyle division to earn All-American honors in both styles.
"I was proud of Gavan because he showed a big step in his growing as a person and as an athlete in pushing through adversity and injury to obtain his goals of double all-American in this tournament," Jeffersonville head wrestling coach Danny Struck said. "Gavan is without a doubt the most nationally-decorated wrestler now in JHS history."
Top finishers in the camp get an invitation to the "2020 future Olympian camp" that features 100 of the nation's top wrestlers. Jolley-Little also earned a bid to the World Championships in Serbia in August.
Struck will coach the USA team in Serbia.

Jared Campbell's plan was to wait until the end of his final high school baseball season to consider college options in both that sport and football.
Then Young Harris College officials offered him a spot on the diamond — and the North Murray senior couldn't pass it up.
On Thursday afternoon at North Murray, Campbell signed a partial athletic scholarship with Young Harris, a private college in Northeast Georgia. The Mountain Lions' athletic programs are currently in transition from the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) to the NCAA's Division II.
Campbell was part of North Murray's first freshman class and his senior class is the first one to spend all four years at the school, which began classes in 2009 with sophomores who had previously attended Murray County High School as well as incoming freshmen.
Campbell spent his falls causing havoc for opposing offenses as a starting linebacker on the football team. In the spring, he still has a mask on but is behind home plate and directs the defense as a catcher.
This past football season, Campbell made 40 tackles — 30 solo and four for a loss — forced one fumble and recovered two fumbles. He also had seven quarterback pressures, a sack and three pass deflections as the Mountaineers went 5-5 in coach David Gann's inaugural season after the team went 1-19 during the program's first two varsity campaigns.
Campbell said Berry College was interested in him for its football program, which kicks off competition this year.
"Baseball was always my passion growing up," he said. "Football season went really well. I was going to wait until baseball season was over to make a decision, but Young Harris gave me the opportunity."
Campbell has a batting average of .444 this season with one home run and 12 RBIs. His on-base percentage is .536 and his slugging percentage is .689. On top of those standout offensive numbers, his leadership is valuable on defense, Mountaineers coach Steve Granger said.
"He's like the coach on the field, to be honest," Granger said. "When he's back there, he is directing people on what to do and where to be. Behind the plate, he's going to block the ball and get in front of some stuff."
Campbell said he has a chance to earn a starting spot "from the get-go" at Young Harris. Additionally, Campbell liked that the school is close to home and secluded from big cities.
"It's real quiet," said Campbell, who visited the school in December and February. "The coaching staff has been incredible to me. It just seems like the right fit."
Campbell's new home is going through something new. Young Harris started the three-year move from the NJCAA to the NCAA during the 2011-2012 school year and is about to finish the second year of that process.
Young Harris' baseball team is competing in the Peach Belt Conference, the league affiliation for all of the school's athletics, and can compete for conference awards and titles so long as they don't come with an automatic berth to NCAA tournaments. The Mountain Lions will have active membership status starting in Campbell's sophomore year.
Young Harris coach Rick Robinson said Campbell has something from playing football that most players he coaches don't have right away.
"I think the biggest thing with Jared is he's obviously a very good athlete, a two-sport athlete his whole life, and we feel once he has the opportunity to focus just on baseball, then his level of play will increase tremendously in a short period of time," Robinson said.
"Any time you can pick up a quality athlete who's also a football player, they bring a type of mental toughness to the team that most baseball players have to acquire after they get to college."
Since Robinson took over in 1999, the Mountain Lions have gone 635-230, won eight conference titles and appeared once in the NJCAA World Series. From 2003 to 2005, Young Harris won at least 50 games each season. This year, the team has a 19-19 record.
"I'm going to get great coaching there," Campbell said.

GREENSBORO — The East boys' basketball team rolled to a 107-84 victory in the N.C. Coaches Association All-Star Basketball Games at the Greensboro Coliseum.
The East shot 55 percent from the field, with four players hitting for 16 or more points.
Execution and effective defense made the East's path to its first 100-point night since 1994 rather easy. Middle Creek product Quinton Ray, who has signed with Campbell, came off of the bench to score eight points.
"It was great preparation for the college experience, getting this chance to play with the best of the East and the West," Ray said. "We had a lot of chemistry as a group from the start. And me, Devonte (Graham) and Tyrone (Outlaw) play on the same AAU team, so we were used to playing together already."
Playing on a floor he'll play on in college (for UNC Greensboro), Outlaw notched MVP honors with a 16-point, seven-rebound, five-assist performance.
Broughton alum Devonte Graham led the East with 20 points, while Chapel Hill's Anthony Vanhook and Marquel Newkirk of Wallace-Rose Hill both scored 16.
Green Hope product David Robertson, a UNC-Asheville recruit, added five points.
The East squad was coached by Bill Boyette, the former Cary High head coach now at Fayetteville, Terry Sanford and current Rolesville coach Tommy Moore, who coached for the past 16 years at Enloe.
The girls' basketball All-Star Game was a 67-60 win for the East. Harnett Central graduate Deanneisha Jackson was named the game's MVP.

Siekmann qualifies for District 5
Date: September 9, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
Vice Mayor and District 5 Commissioner Robert Siekmann has officially become a candidate for his third and final two-year term that would begin in March 2010.
Town Clerk Trish Granger confirmed that Siekmann submitted election paperwork at Town Hall, and the Manatee County Supervisor of Elections Office has confirmed Siekmann's petition certification paperwork.
Siekmann is the second current commissioner to become certified for his third and final two-year term. District 3 Commissioner Peter O'Connor was certified for his seat in July.
At-large Commissioner Hal Lenobel has picked up paperwork at Town Hall for his second two-year term.
Meanwhile, Lenobel already has a challenger for his seat who is waiting to be qualified.
Phillip Younger submitted paperwork at Town Hall and is awaiting certification paperwork from the Sarasota County Supervisor of Elections Office.
If Lenobel decides to run, it will be the first time he has ever been challenged for a commission seat.
Mayor Lee Rothenberg's District 1 seat will also be available this March, because he will term-limit out. Commissioners are only eligible for three consecutive, two-year terms.
Other potential candidates for the March election include former Planning and Zoning Board Chairman David Brenner and IPOC Chairman Bob White; both have yet to decide whether they will vie for a commission seat.

I spent part of a sun-splashed afternoon Monday as a bell ringer for the Salvation Army in front of Walmart on Riverhill.
It was my first experience on the other side of the bell and, I'll have to say, it was quite enjoyable.
Maybe it was good to be out of the office for an hour with the temperatures touching 70 degrees — that certainly didn't hurt.
My bell-ringing partner, Ted Miller, made it just in time after putting in 18 holes of golf at The Oaks. He was worried he was going to be late so his score may have suffered (of course, it may have suffered for other reasons, too). I told him to have fun on the course.
"I've got this," I said.
But he was Ready Teddy when our appointed time came around at 1 p.m. And, truth is, it was nice having him around. He's a veteran at this bell-ringing business and he must have had conversations with two dozen folks (not that I was Mr. Silent).
I took the bell handoff from Ashland City Commissioner Larry Brown, another seasoned ringer who does a lot for the community outside of his "official" capacity.
It didn't take long before visitors to Walmart were stuffing the little red kettle with $1 bills (and more). They were all so cheerful. It was a true display of Christmas joy.
There were literally hundreds who came in and out of Walmart during the hour that Ted and I rang the bells. We were both amazed at the sheer volume. And it was kind of interesting being on this side of the ringing. How many times have we passed by the red kettle feeling a little bit guilty for not putting in something?
Guilty as charged.
The truth of it is, for a lot of us, we don't carry cash.
Maybe the Salvation Army should look into putting in an ATM. I'm joking, of course, but I'm sure I'm not the only one who has walked by the kettle feeling guilty because I literally didn't have anything on me to give.
As we were diligently ringing, Maj. Darrell Kingsbury of the Salvation Army came to our station in full uniform. I wasn't sure if we were supposed to salute or what. He did get a few stares. If you haven't met the major and his wife, make some time to do it. They are truly a gracious and God-fearing couple who understand their role in this Christian project.
I hear he plays a mean horn, too, although I've never had the pleasure of listening to him. We chatted for a few minutes with the Major — still ringing our bells — while more and more of our generous community dropped money in the kettle. Some of those who stuffed in a dollar may not have had much more to their name, yet they gave. That's what you do to make your community a better place.
Ashland has always been a giving community and the leaders of our communities certainly lead by example.
Several friends, co-workers and some readers:
"Are you Mark Maynard?"
"Who's asking?"
"Oh, I've seen your picture in the paper. I love what you write!"
"Well, then yes, that's me!"
I'm sure this wasn't a true taste of what many bell ringers go through during the Christmas season. My first shift was more like a spring day.
I know from experience with other Salvation Army bell ringers to look everybody in the eye and wish them a "Merry Christmas!" I've been on the other side of that as well. Sometimes you look away or watch your feet because you don't have any change. You can't bare to look. It's OK, it really is. What I learned is we're not there to judge anybody. And if you feel that guilty, then write a check to the Salvation Army when you go home. The red kettles aren't the only place they collect money.
We were stationed around the soft drink machines on Monday and one particular woman was having trouble getting them to work. She went to two different machines before finally giving up. Then she stuffed her pop money in our red kettle.
"I guess I didn't need a soft drink anyway," she said.
The Lord works in mysterious ways. Just saying.
It was around the turn of the 20th century that the idea was born to use the kettle for collecting funds to feed the hungry.
In 1891, Capt. Joseph McFee wanted to help the poor people in San Francisco but he didn't know where to get funding for his project. He remembered, during his early days as a sailor in Liverpool, England, seeing a large kettle called "Simpson's Pot" where passengers of boats that docked at Stage Landing tossed coins to help the poor.
The following day, Capt. McFee placed a pot at the Oakland Ferry Landing, beside the pot was a sign that read "Keep the Pot Boiling." He was able to collect enough donations to have a Christmas dinner for the poor people.
His idea spread and, in 1897, a nationwide effort was able to fund 150,000 Christmas dinners for the poor. In 1901, donations from New York city funded a sit-down dinner at Madison Square Garden.
Today, you'll find bell ringers and red kettles at many stores and malls during the Christmas season.
Here's what you can take to the bank: The money collected is put to good use.
Drop in some change the next time you pass by one of those bell ringers.
You'll be glad you did.
