Jeep Liberty Prices Paid and Buying Experience
mb789 Posts: 89How does the process usually work to special order a Jeep? Once you decide the exact model, color, options, etc. and take your printout to the dealer, then what do you do after this -- negotiate the price and then place the order? Do you have to sign anything -- like the agreed upon price sheet? What if the dealer asks for some kind of deposit -- is this necessary? Then, if a trade is involved, do they evaluate the trade at that time and then again when your new vehicle comes in?
jayrider Posts: 3,251You negotiate the price and put down a deposit. Your trade will be reevaluated when the time comes to take possesion. If they lower the trade in you can walk and get back your deposit. Wouldn't give them more than 1-2 hundred as a deposit. Unless you order something very unpopular, they will just put it on the lot.
I see no one has posted here since August 2007. I am interested in getting a really good deal for an '07 Liberty, 6-speed manual in the NY/NJ/CT area. Anyone out there know what's going on with Jeep offers? I've been reading some not great things about Jeeps right now and I am wondering if it's worth the investment.
Looking foward to your responses.
chigirlintexas Posts: 73I am interested in an '08 Liberty Ltd pretty much loaded....nav, etc. Does anyone out there have any experience buying an '08? I'd like to know how much I might be able to haggle off the MSRP. I know they currently have a $1K incentive and another $1K for being a repeat Chrysler customer, but how much more might I get off?
Any info/suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated. As my name suggests, I'm in Texas, if that makes any difference.
I'm planning to buy a similar Liberty. Considering that Chrysler just started offering buying incentives on their website, I expect they will continue offering better and more incentives.
The auto business is so slow now that by February or March of 2008, I'm guessing dealers will be starving and will offer very nice deals especially on SUVs that get less-than-great gas mileage. Let's face it by next spring the price of gas will only be higher than it is now which will only cut further into dealer sales. That's when I plan to buy mine.
I'm planning to buy a new '08 Liberty Limited in February or March of 2008, but I also plan to relocate cross country in April of 2008.
I feel that I stand a better chance of getting the exact vehicle I want here in the country's car capitol of So California than I could find in northern New England where I plan to relocate to. But I don't want to have to pay sales taxes and registration here in Cali just to get hit again with additional registration fees in New England when I relocate.
Any thoughts as to whether I can special order my new Liberty from the dealer in the New England town where I plan to relocate? I haven't contacted them yet to see if they'll even agree to this, but presuming that they will, what kind of deposit should I give them considering we're over 3000 miles apart.
I just bought a 2007 Jeep Liberty Sport, Manual Transmission for $17,500 from Pamby Motors in CT (MSRP: $23,110) After going on websites like www.carbuyingtips.com and Edmunds, I was able to figure out the DEALERS cost (not invoice,which is more money) which includes rebates and factory-to-dealer incentives (it was $5,000 up to 12/3/07). Pamby Motors was excellent! They offered a great price, they got me a good deal on financing and warrenty and made the experiece so simple and smooth. I almost thought I wasn't in a car dealership.
You sound like you got a great deal too for the Limited with the G Package. How much was the MSRP?
I was nervous at driving manual (hadn't in about 15 years), but I slipped right back into it (like riding a bike) and I love it. How do you like your Jeep?
Also got Premium Groups 1 and 2, MyGig, Premium Audio, Tow Pkg, Leather (slate gray), Chrome Grill, Siding, Rear Cover, and Wheels. It's the 2WD.
Paid $300 over invoice ($29,735 before T&L) and chose the $2.99 gas instead of the rebate. Also got the maintenance plan for $1,400.00, which includes rental.
Purchased from David Ellis Jeep in Canoga Park, CA from James. Very, very cool guy. No pressure at all.
Issues so far:
*They forgot to charge the A/C system. Found this out on a 117-degree San Fernando Valley day. They fixed it right away.
*They forgot to install the little antenna. Had to go back to pick it up.
*MyGig has frozen a couple of times. Resetting has done the trick.
*Wind noise evident at 75MPH+ while Sky-Slider roof is closed.
*Only achieving about 15MPG, even with a lot of highway driving (without stop and go).
I am looking to email dealers in early August to hopefully pick up a 2008 Jeep Liberty Limited 4WD in early-mid Sept. Is it too early now to tell what a residual will be on this vehicle in another month? Or does it stay constant for a while. Also, same thing with the money factor? I am just looking to get an idea if I can keep my payments around $350/mo on a 12k mi per year limited with standard sunroof (not sky slider), and option package 1?? I'd like to go into the dealers knowing my numbers and hoping for the best, Thanks
Because sales data is relatively low, residuals are harder to come by. Most dealers here in Los Angeles consult the NADA residual guidebook for this information. If it's a new model, they often base it on prior model history and adjust as the years go by and more data is collected.
I would think that you have a reasonable chance of getting this payment, but it also depends on your cap reduction, etc. BTW, money factor is just a fancy derivative of a lease's APR, it's not affected by residuals, but by market forces and your credit.
You don't know the numbers they do. Email 10-20 jeep dealers (jeep website) for their best monthly payment on a jeep of your description with a 12000 mile lease for 36 months with no or very little money down.. Let them know your are contacting 20 dealers and your fico score. Do this last week of the month and work the top 3 against one another. Have them break it down (I would prefer) or not. The monthly payment (no money down) is what counts for 36mo. See what happens or who breaks the last 3 days.
You don't know the deals they can work or the true lowest money factors involved with currency exchange rates so the lowest is the lowest you can work over the phone within 200 mi. Keep your 350/mo mental target to yourself for awhile. A 31000 jeep limited should sell for about 23000 or less. I've seen some advertised deals well under $300 on leases on cars in this range.

Great – thanks for your answers. If my lease on my '06 Pontiac G6 coupe is up Sept 14 when do you suggest I contact dealers? I will be considering 2 SUV's the obvious 2008 Jeep Liberty Limited and the 2008 Toyota Highlander (base model) so I want to be sure to leave enough time to shoot out emails, meet with the top 3 from each Jeep and Toyota and get the SUV by Sept 14 latest.
Because I used to broker cars I've been pretty lucky about not having to go through all this work. It takes a lot of effort to email that many dealers, especially if you include the deluge of repeated follow-up you will receive.
If you can, find out if your credit union has a purchasing service. Often you can save a lot of headaches. If you don't belong to a CU, a good resource is www.advocar.com, which works just the same way, or even carsdirect.com. I worked for both companies (they are national) and can tell you from the back end that it isn't even remotely close to their goal to screw you, especially Advocar (which is also known as Autoland).
Good luck!
Thats silly. Test drive the cars now, decide what you want and work the top 3 guys (survivors) over the phone/email while watching TV from your couch. By no means run between 3 dealers in the september heat. That went out of style when Grahm Bell invented the telephone in the 1870's much less the internet. Usually if somethings going to break it will be the last 3 days of the month, So email out the last 7 days of July.
If you look up a Jeep limited 07 like the one you want used on kbb.com you will probably find a msrp 31000 model probably barely has a trade-in for 17000. This will be what your new 08 will be worth in 12 months. This is probably a optimistic number as the market is miserable for these SUV's. I wouldn't buy one for less than 10000 off msrp so we're looking for a killer lease here.
Good luck

Reflux is a condition in which stomach acids escape from the stomach and flow back up the esophagus. This is called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or acid reflux, and it is experienced as the feeling we know commonly as heartburn. If you experience heartburn two or more times a week on a regular basis, you may want to talk to your doctor about treatment options.
When you swallow, food travels down the esophagus to a valve at the top of the stomach which opens to let it pass and then closes. In reflux patients, that valve doesn't close tightly enough. Stomach acid then escapes from the stomach and moves back up (reflux is literally "flowing again") into the esophagus.
The main symptom of reflux disease is a burning sensation just behind the breastbone. Symptoms are most commonly experienced immediately after eating or when you are lying down to sleep at night. Bending forward after eating or eating too much sometimes causes heartburn and an unpleasant burning, sour taste in the back of your throat. This may happen occasionally and does not indicate that you have GERD. With GERD, the reflux lasts longer and happens more often. It is important for patients with reflux to seek treatment before stomach acids permanently damage the esophagus.
To diagnose reflux disease, your doctor may ask you questions and perform a physical exam. In cases where further testing is required, Holland Hospital's advanced diagnostic capabilities help our specialists more precisely determine the cause of GERD.
Symptom Management
For many people, prescription medications are often able to manage the symptoms of reflux disease. There are also lifestyle changes that can help patients manage reflux disease symptoms. Patients are often advised to:
If the above methods fail, pH monitoring with the state of the art Bravo system can help diagnose the underlying cause of your reflux disease. The Bravo System is accurate, noninvasive, comfortable and convenient.
The Bravo System uses a small catheter to attach a tiny capsule to the esophagus wall. The capsule records information about the amount of acid produced by the stomach that flows back up into the esophagus, then it transmits this data to a receiver worn by you. This data helps your gastroenterologist chart the best course of treatment.
If less-invasive measures of treatment prove ineffective, your doctor may recommend surgery. Fundoplication surgery strengthens the valve between the esophagus and the stomach.

- Great Jacket in Any Condition (Review by steve)
I've worn this jacket in warm Spring conditions and dry cold weather. Sheds water and snow and keeps you dry and warm with a little layering and blocks the wind. Fits true to size and still able to layer without that stuffed feeling. It's a great shell that does it all and looks great, too.

What to Expect on Your First Flight
by Chris Findley, CFI, www.myFlightCoach.com
You're going to take your first flight in a light airplane! First things first, be sure to bring a camera! This is an exciting day for you and for those of us who teach and encourage people to learn to fly. This might well be a much bigger day than you imagine. These first flights are where many of us catch the "flying bug" and begin a journey that literally lasts a lifetime.
But what can you expect? While experiences vary from flight school to flight school, here's are some thoughts on what a great first flight should be.
You should arrive just a few minutes early to meet your instructor and sort of take in the sights, sounds, and smells of the airport. Depending on where you are, there could be a bit of air traffic and there might well be some other students around. You might meet a couple while you wait.
Your instructor will have the airplane dispatched (have the paperwork approved for flight) and will probably talk with you a few minutes before you go to the plane. He or she will probably ask about you-- when did you get interested in flying? Have you ever been up in a light plane before? What have you heard about it? Is there anything that makes you particularly nervous? Is there anything in particular that you'd like to see? Hopefully your instructor will take a little time to get to know you and they'll probably tell you a little about themselves.
Once this is done, you'll head out to the airplane. If you're used to airliners, the common trainer may seem small. It's about the size of a compact car, but with wings. The first thing you and your instructor will do is a "preflight". Pilots are careful. We are diligent about checking the airplane's functioning before we even start the engine. So we preflight the plane before each and every flight. This is basically a methodical walk around the aircraft, examining its various components, instrument sensors, controls, and fluid levels. This will take about :10-:15 minutes depending on how much discussion is happening as you go. Your instructor may have you help with the preflight. I often have 1st time pilots read off the checklist as I demonstrate how to check each component.
After the preflight, you're almost ready to fly! You'll get in, start the engine and begin your taxi to the runway in use. You'll probably hear a some chatter on your headset. That chatter may sound like a foreign language at first, but after a few lessons you'll be amazed at how much you begin to understand. In fact, in only a few lessons, you'll probably be talking on the radio!
You will do one final check of the plane, called the runup. The engine is advanced to a moderate RPM and the basic engine functioning is checked. Your controls, instruments, and radios are also verified as ready-to-go and then you're off!
Your instructor will taxi the plane onto the runway, line it up with the centerline, advance the throttle to full power and you'll be on your way! At about 55knots (about 63 MPH) the nose of the plane will be gently pointed skyward and you'll begin flying! You'll notice that the ground begins dropping away. You may feel the wind pushing the plane or you may notice some bumps that are like hitting small potholes. That's just a little turbulence, quite normal to experience in light planes, especially in the summer. If you want to minimize this, then schedule your first flight either early in the morning or early in the evening before dark. The air is usually smoother at those times.
Upon reaching a safe altitude, your instructor will turn you out of the airport area and will very likely let you try your hand at flying. Don't be shy! Feel how much pressure it takes to turn the plane or to pitch it up or down. Check out what the rudder does. Get a feel for the plane. Remember, your instructor's job is to help YOU learn to fly! You might fly over your city or even over your house. Let the instructor know what you'd like to see.
After about :20mins or so (depending on the duration of your first flight) you'll begin to head back to the airport. Keep your eyes open and see if you can spot it. Your instructor will get the airplane to the traffic area (called the traffic pattern) and begin the approach to landing. For many people this is the most exciting part of the flight. Even long-time pilots love the challenge of making a great landing -which is both an art and a science. Hopefully your instructor will make a nice landing. You'll feel a light bump, hear the tires squeak and you'll feel the airplane slowing. After turning off the runway, you'll probably open your window for some needed fresh air (especially if its summer time). It's a great feeling to look up into the sky and realize that you were just there!
After taxiing back to parking and securing the plane, the instructor will find out if you're interested in lessons so you can earn your own Pilot's License. Go ahead and jump in! Schedule that 1st lesson!
There's nothing like your first flight. It may well be one of the most life-changing half-hours you ever have!

---Canisius College on Wednesday picked up a 2014 verbal committment from 6-7 small forward Cassidy Ryan of Mt. Carmel High School in Mississauga, Ont. The earilest Ryan can sign with Canisius is Nov. 2013 and a lot can happen until then but the Griffs may have landed a steal if they can sign Ryan.
The video above shows how athletic he is and at least one publication lists Ryan as one of the top 75 players available from the '14 class. Here's what TheRecruitScoop.com wrote about Ryan after the first day of Hoop Group Elite Camp Session II in Reading, Pa in July:
"With a college-ready body and the ability to score in a variety of ways due to his athleticism and strength, it is surprising that Ryan is not fielding much college interest at the moment. While a move to the United States could be a possibility this fall, college coaches need to put the rising junior on their radar."

Gold for Gianni Frankis and bronze for Jessica Judd at UK Indoor Championships
Updated 4:38pm Sunday 10th February 2013 in Sport By Ryan Goad
GIANNI Frankis has become the national indoor 60m hurdle champion – but now faces a race to make the Great Britain team for the European Championships.
Frankis took the honours at the UK Championships and European Trials in Sheffield yesterday, winning the final in 7.72s.
The time was just short of the 7.65s the 24-year-old from Pitsea needs to make the team for the European Championships in Gothenburg next month.
Frankis will now have until Sunday to record that time. If he does, he will automatically be in the GB team.
Meanwhile, Jessica Judd won a bronze medal in her first ever race indoors.
The 18-year-old, from Canvey, led for much of the 3,000m final on Sunday before eventually tiring and being overhauled inside the final kilometre.
But a typically gutsy run still ensured the Chelmsford AC athlete finished in an impressive time of 9m 14.71s – her third fastest time over the distance.
It was a good weekend too for Rayleigh's Sophie Riches who recorded a PB to make the women's 1,500m final and then broke that best less than 24 hours later in the final itself.
The 17-year-old was the youngest in the field and clocked 4m 29.70s in her heat to book a place in Sunday's final.
And she showed no signs of fatigue in the final, slicing fractions off her PB again to finish in eighth place in 4m 29.29s.
Leigh's Lauren Bouchard, 21, also had a positive championships, making the semi final of the flat 400m.
The 400m hurdles specialist, who is at university in Loughborough, won her heat in 56.18s but was just edged out of a final place, running 55.16s in the semi final just a few hours later. For full reaction, see the Echo later this week.

---- — PLATTSBURGH — The cause of a fire that destroyed a mobile home July 19 remains under investigation.
No one was injured in the blaze.
The Keeseville Volunteer Fire Department was dispatched to a storage trailer at about 3 p.m. on Hollywood Avenue, Keeseville Fire Chief David Perky said.
"It was on the ground before we got there," he said.
A neighbor reported the fire to authorities, Perky said.
The resident of a mobile home within the same trailer park owns the trailer and was using it like a garage to store snow blowers, heaters and other items, he said.
"There was nobody living there," Perky said.
The owner does not have insurance on the structure, the chief said.
The exact address of the fire was not available Wednesday and it was unknown how much the items in the trailer were valued at.
Providing mutual aid to Keeseville were fire departments from Willsboro, Peru and AuSable.
It took the approximately 30 firefighters at the mobile home about two-and-a-half hours to extinguish the fire, Perky said.
Perky said the Keeseville Volunteer Fire Department was back in service by 6 p.m. before a thunderstorm that knocked down trees and power lines in the North Country whipped through the area.

Angry: The Slippery Demon Pudding ignores Ragnar completely; it reaches out with a pulsating pseudopod shrouded in yellow-black smoke and slams Baramos with tremendous force. [roll] The creature hits…
Smartass: Wait… I get to make a basic melee attack. The pudding is marked and its not including me in the attack.
Angry: Not in this case. Baramos' eyes sting from the sulphorous fumes. He…
Smartass: Why don't I get to make an attack?
Angry: The creature has a trait that overrides your mark in this case.
Smartass: What trait is that?
Angry: Here, take a look. Its listed under the trait "Screw Ragnar"
Smartass: This says: 'The Slippery Demon Pudding ignores Ragnar's mark and Ragnar is not allowed to make a free attack as a result of the pudding making an attack that does not include him as a target.'
Angry: See?
Whiny: Let me see that… what the hell? 'Resist 10/all of Karrin's attacks'
Angry: You guys are always complaining that I don't write stories that specifically involve your characters. Well, there you go.
Whiny: 'Attack +12 vs. AC, Hit: Baramos dies'?!
Angry: Yep. Oh right… thanks. The attack hits. Baramos' eyes sting from the sulphorous fumes. Then he dies.

History of CET
In April, Cincinnati Mayor Albert D. Cash received a letter from the Federal Communications Commission proposing to assign Channel 48 to Cincinnati for educational broadcasting purposes. The mayor appointed a committee to organize the Greater Cincinnati Television Educational Foundation and Uberto T. Neely was appointed the first General Manager.
In March, The Greater Cincinnati Television Educational Foundation is granted a non-profit corporate charter. The first location for WCET was in the College of Music, located in Music Hall. The operating budget is $12,055; barely enough to meet the payroll of the four staff members, yet supplemented by student technicians and donated cameras and equipment.
On June 30, WCET staff and Board of Trustees members gathered to watch as WCET's transmitter is turned on for the first time. Left to right: Uberto Neely, General Manager; C.S. Dale, Warren Durkee, Charles Crouch, Claude V. courter, Fred Smith, Msgr. Carl Ryan and Raymond Walters, Trustees; James Leonard, Chief Engineer, and Edgar W. Holtz, Legal Counsel.
July 26, WCET begins live broadcast at 4:00 p.m with the first broadcast, Tel-A-Story. At the time, WCET was housed in Dexter Hall in Cincinnati's historic Music Hall. (Dexter Hall is now Corbett Tower.) The Program Advisory Committee, under the guidance of the Program Director, prepared approximately eleven hours of live, and four hours of filmed programming. Up through August 20, the program log includes live shows, film, kinescope and remote programming. These first programs are of 9 types including informational, entertainment, telecourse, public relations, religious, sports, cultural, and direct teaching.
In October of that year, WCET48 increases broadcast time to 40 hours per week, 26 hours live, four hours of film, and ten hours of test pattern.
The FCC issues non-commercial license #1 to WCET48.
WCET experiences its most difficult time operating with a reduced schedule and minimum staff. Business, industry and private citizens helped keep WCET on the air until January, 1956, at which time Voting Member Institutions and School Systems were able to contribute to the basic financial support for yearly operation.
WCET's programming is gradually expanded to over 30 hours per week between September 1956 and June 1957.
WCET received three National awards for telecasting a Driver Education and a Biology direct teaching series in cooperation with the Cincinnati Public Schools.
Over 25,000 students view WCET in-school programs weekly in more than 300 school buildings throughout Greater Cincinnati.
A survey conducted in the spring indicated 25 to 30 thousand homes had all-wave or converted TV sets to view WCET. Adult programming increases to five and one-half hours each on Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
In July, WCET48 moves to the former WLWT studios at 2222 Chickasaw Street, leasing it for $1 per year.
At least 80 percent of all school buildings in Greater Cincinnati have been equipped with UHF TV receivers and are using the WCET in-school and evening adult TV programs. With the taping of in-school programs and a multiple showing of them each week, the in-school viewing audience would exceed 60,000 students a week.
WCET receives the Ohio State Award for broadcasting a story on mental health, Escape From The Cage.
On February 1, WCET expands its broadcast to five nights a week of adult ETV programming.
WCET reports operation on the smallest yearly budget of all ETV community stations in the country, yet still provides more individual in-school programs than most of the other ETV stations.
WCET installs a new UHF transmitter allowing an excellent picture to be received within a radius of 10-14 miles for homes with UHF converters and inside antennas. The same transmitter allows reception of a good picture from a 35-45 mile radius using an expensive UHF converter and an expensive antenna mounted on a 30-foot mast.
Federal legislation requires UHF tuners on new TV sets. This move provides a dramatic increase in WCET48's audience.
The station's first General Manager, Uberto Neely, is succeeded by Charles W. Vaughan.
Vaughan's work is cut out for him. A Cincinnati school levy failed, forcing the station to look for other funding or close the station.
A new game show, Culture Anyone?, hosted by Irma Lazarus, airs for the first time. The program would later become Conversation With Irma.
The Public Broadcasting Act passes, creating The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and The Public Broadcasting Service (PBS). Top-notch programming is imported from the British Broadcasting Corporation, introducing instant hits such as The Forsyte Saga, Henry VIII, and Elizabeth R.
Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood debuts on WCET48.
The first Action Auction raises $31,000 in two days.
Sesame Street begins on WCET48. Sesame Street features quality children's programming around the world; in 1972, Plaza Sesamo is broadcast in Mexico.
Alistair Cooke starts hosting a new collection of dramas called Masterpiece Theatre. The show debuted on January 10 with ''The First Churchills'', a 12-part epic based on the lives and loves of Sir Winston Churchill's ancestors.
Lilias, Yoga and You premieres on WCET. In the series, Master Yoga Teacher Lilias Folan presented her personal teachings of modern America Yoga. The series soon aired on public television stations across the nation.
NOVA made its debut on March 3rd with a ''behind-the-scenes look at the making of a nature film''. As the series progresses over the years, it features programming of various topics, including biology, ecology, genetics, technology, and anthropology.
National Geographic airs its first special on public television, ''The Incredible Machine''. This show explores the human body from the inside out and follows people as they encounter the fears, hopes, and miracles of modern medicine.
WCET48 moves into the Crosley Telecommunications Center on Central Parkway. The center is donated by the Crosley Foundation, allowing WCET's $2 million budget to continue providing quality educational programming.
Live From The Met's first broadcast features Luciano Pavarotti performing La Boheme. More people see that performance on television than have seen it in all of its performances in all of its history.
PBS starts distributing its programs by satellite, the first network to do so. WCET's new transmitter tower begins operation expanding the station's coverage from 137,000 homes to a half-million.
On July 26, WCET celebrates 25 years of service to Greater Cincinnati. Milestones included the production of the national public affairs program Congressional Outlook. WCET was also hailed as a major source of education. Students using TV48's programming in the classroom increased from 12,000 in 1956 to over 200,000 in 1979.
With Closed Captioning, deaf and hearing-impaired viewers can now ''read'' the sound of television.
Carl Sagan explores the mysteries of the universe in Cosmos. Through special effects, viewers are able to witness quasars, exploding galaxies, star clusters, supernovas, and pulsars.
Warner Cable and WCET48 agree to set aside four cable channels for Instructional Television in addition to WCET48's broadcast signal.
CET launches Cincinnati Business Weekly, the region's first local weekly program dedicated to reporting on business and the economy. The series ran for three years and garnered two Emmy nominations.
The MacNeil/Lehrer Report becomes the only nightly news program to expand to an hour and becomes The MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour.
WCET48 airs the first stereo television broadcast in Cincinnati - The Music Man.
WCET48 launches Curriculum Connection, an online access to instructional programs.
Cincinnati celebrates its own bicentennial. WCET48 looks back with several special programs, including the Emmy-award winning documentary Powel Crosley, Jr. and the 20th Century.
WCET48 joins with the Smithsonian Institution and four other public broadcasters in establishing the National Demonstration Laboratory for Interactive Technologies in Washington, D.C.
CET's Action Auction breaks the 1-million-dollar mark.
Charles W. Vaughan retires and is succeeded by W. Wayne Godwin.
WCET48 brings television to the blind, becoming the first and only local station to utilize Descriptive Video Service (DVS).
FutureThon, a live special from WCET48 studios on all six Cincinnati TV stations, recruits volunteers for the Cincinnati Youth Collaborative.
Ken Burns' The Civil War becomes the most-watched program ever on WCET48.
The MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour joins NBC for unprecedented coverage of the 1992 elections.
Project Equity helps low-income school districts move into the high tech age by utilizing multimedia to increase math test scores.
The series Baseball (also by Ken Burns) surpasses The Civil War to become the most-watched program ever on WCET48.
WCET produces Keep America Singing, a national pledge special recorded in Cincinnati's historic Music Hall and hosted by Mitch Miller. The program featured three international champion barbershop quartets and Cincinnati's own Southern Gateway Chorus.

Eva Pereira, Contributor
I cover the intersection between tech, education and social activism
Are we in a new Gilded Age? With income inequality at historic levels not seen since the early 1920s, author Malcolm Gladwell and Roger Martin, dean of the Rotman School of Management, recently discussed how over 80% of America's assets ended up in the hands of 20% of the population and how this affects America's bid to "Win the Future."
At a gathering at the offices of Thomson Reuters, Gladwell and Martin talked about how talent compensation has run amok in America and the repercussions of what they call unmitigated greed. Martin, whose books include Diaminds and The Design of Business, described a revolution in talent compensation that took place in the 1970s and saw CEOs, top athletes, actors and money managers earn multiples of their previous salaries. According to a recent study, CEOs during the 1960s earned on average $42 for every $1 earned by wage workers. Today, that ratio is $344:1.
How did the scales tip so far in favor of 'talent' and what effect has this compensation model had on U.S. income distribution? Martin and Gladwell argue that a political and psychological shift took place in the 1970s that made it all possible. Baseball's first free agent contract was negotiated in 1974; money managers began the practice of charging 2 and 20 on assets under management; Michael Jensen's seminal paper on agency theory contributed to the creation of the executive stock option compensation model. In essence, talent became aware of capital's weakness: what they possessed was rare and what capital possessed was easily commoditized. A dollar is a dollar wherever it comes from. With the new compensation model came a shift in psychology from thinking "what's enough" to "how much?", says Martin.
The problem with the current talent compensation model according to Gladwell, is greed. The system is inherently flawed. He explains, "It's like saying to talent, you can choose to maximize your income or not. Who has self-restraint? No one does!" The ever-widening gulf between America's top earners and the middle class is the result of that unmitigated greed and what they believe is politicians' reluctance to impose restraint through taxation and regulation. "The average American has stopped moving forward," Martin says. A report from the Levy Economics Institute confirms a dramatic shift in U.S. wealth distribution over the past three decades. Since 1983, 43% of the new financial wealth created by the U.S. economy accrued to the wealthiest 1%. A full 94% was absorbed by the top 20%, leaving just 6% of the financial wealth created during the 80s, 90s, and 2000s to the bottom 80% of Americans. Total real income growth during that same time period was similarly distributed, with 44% of increases amassed by the top 1% and 87% of total increases accruing to the top 20%.
When measuring for income inequality, the U.S. now falls within the ranks of Uruguay and Cameroon, according to the CIA World Factbook. Evidence from the Levy report suggests that middle class incomes have stagnated and as a result, households are increasingly relying on debt to finance normal consumption expenditures. The middle class may be in for yet another pinch. As my colleague Robert Lenzner writes here, rising inflation is expected to put a further strain on indebted and unemployed households. "It's only a matter of time before a political figure decides to exploit this. Why Obama hasn't, I'll never know," says Gladwell. Social stability is threatened when a society becomes too stratified. "If we want to continue to grow, we have to equalize a little bit," he says.

Things are so bad in the U.S.? Gee, yeah .. the poor have to drive used cars, can only buy food with food stamps, and basic cable.
So terrible, Malcolm. Not.
Care to enlighten the rest of us Russ on where you get your information from? I'd certainly be interested in your research. Please don't tell me that you are just regurgitating things you believe or things you've heard second hand. For myself, none of the poor people I know have cars or basic cable, however, I've never committed to doing any research on the issue so I certainly won't embarrass myself here by trying to pass off my opinions or speculations as truth or fact. Just because you deem it so, doesn't mean it is!
"If we want to continue to grow, we have to equalize a little bit," [Gladwell] says.
"A little bit"? Methinks Gladwell is showing his reluctance to bite the hands that feed him. We need to equalize a *lot*.
Thank you for a very timely and enlightening article. Why the democrats, specifically the Obama Administration, did not exploit this following the 2008 election is a clear indication that they are in bed with this kind of thinking to some or the same degree as the Republicans. There were numerous opportunities presented to do something more than provide lip service, and the fact that the democrats were totally inefectual on addressing the issue of bonuses illustrates, only too well, how they were either inept or co-opted, or both. We will have to wait, I guess, and see what Obama does, but I would not suspect that he will address this to any significant degree prior to the 2012 election but hopefully he will make this a "main" campaign issue. The Republican Congressman Ryan is already out there planning for a continuation of the "Bush Tax cuts" beyond 2012, so we know where they stand. For Obama to be successful, however, he will have to ensure that all his party legislators agree in advance on the tax plan, and spend a heap of time trying to explain to the American public just why it is in their best interest to vote for changes in the tax system, say on the upper 20%. I think your conclusion is quite on the mark. For their to be growth there has to be more flow. It all can't be trickle up.
Good Evening Miss Pereira,
I enjoyed your article very much.
I wonder as to what policy options are viable for rectifying this situation?
What could they be?
One could consider the direct function of enforced Salary caps, but that would likely be dead from the get-go, facing strong opposition from those who have both great wealth and great political/economic might.
There's the indirect, already-somewhat-palatable option of increased taxes, which is currently the most spoke about option, but even then it faces great opposition and reluctance among many circles and is, as a relative medium, a boon for government revenue but not capita income.
Impetus for decreased stratification would require… idunno… ah… growth of relative individual contribution? If people feel they have a greater stake in the system, they'll be more… nah. you already covered this in your ruminations about why the President hasn't already utilized this.
This isn't a solution either, only a method for generating political will.
Ahh… I thought I could think of something while writing, but I haven't, so sorry for rambling.
Your thoughts on possible, viable solutions/methods/policy?
Woah! I didn't realize how old of an article this is!
Ms. Pereira:
So is the issue mobility or inequality? Because they are two separate things, and your article talks about inequality whereas your comment response talks about mobility.
If the argument is that talent compensation is what drives increasing inequality, then I think clearly there must be a lot of mobility, because there is no way that the wealthiest 1% of families could possibly produce enough talent to run the economy, generation to generation. Aren't most of the high-powered and highly compensated CEOs (e.g., Larry Ellison, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs) from middle class families rather than uber-wealthy families? How consistent, really, is the membership of this "wealthiest 1%" that your article describes as if it were a single definable entity?
It seems to me that the situation being described is one where, each generation, a small group of highly talented people, drawn mostly from the middle class, manages to put itself in the position to negotiate fabulous compensation for itself, and leapfrog the previous elite to become the new "wealthiest 1%". The talent, rightfully, always wants to finish its career in a better position than the people who merely provided funding to facilitate their innovations (and probably had that funding because of their parents' or grandparents' talent), so this leapfrogging is an essential part of the system. If that is the case, then it would seem that mobility and inequality go hand in hand, complement each other, and of necessity increase over time.

Seattle's first gun buyback since 1992 netted 716 weapons, officials announced Monday morning.
The total included 364 rifles, 348 pistols, three Street Sweeper shotguns and a Stinger missile launcher tube—all collected in less than four hours in downtown Seattle on Saturday. Officials offered gift cards worth $100 or $200 in exchange for each firearm.
Do you think gun buybacks are a good idea? Tell us in the comments section.
Speaking at a news conference Monday, King County Executive Dow Constantine joined Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn in applauding the buyback's success.
"Hundreds of homes in King County are safer places to live today," Constantine said. "These guns are now out of the home and off the street."
McGinn offered similar praise and also refuted speculation that the buyback would net only old, unusable guns: "Every weapon we bought was a usable weapon," he said.
Officials said they issued $68,000 in gift cards—roughly two-thirds of the $118,100 that private donors pledged in financial support. Organizers would like to hold a second event, McGinn said, but they must first secure additional donations.
McGinn also addressed the fact that many individuals at the buyback event were buying and selling firearms among themselves—an observation he said points to the need for a universal background check law at the state or federal level. City police, he said, currently do not have the legal authority to stop private gun sales.
Seattle's last gun buyback took place in 1992 and brought in more than 1,200 guns over four days.

Lifeloggers (also known as lifebloggers or lifegloggers) typically wear computers in order to capture their entire lives, or large portions of their lives.
In this context, the first person to do lifelogging, i.e., to capture continuous physiological data together with live first-person video from a wearable camera, was Steve Mann whose experiments with wearable computing and streaming video in the early 1980s led to Wearable Wireless Webcam. Starting in 1994, Mann continuously transmitted his everyday life 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and his site grew in popularity, becoming Cool Site of the Day on February 17, 1995.[2] Using a wearable camera and wearable display, he invited others to both see what he was looking at, over the Web, as well as send him live feeds or messages in real time.[3] In 1998 Mann started a community of lifeloggers (also known as lifebloggers or lifegloggers) which has grown to more than 20,000 members.[4]
Throughout the 1990s Mann presented this work to the U.S. Army, with two visits to US Natick Army Research Labs, as well as a formal invited talk.
Jennifer Ringley's JenniCam (1996) was followed by collegeboyslive.tv (still running/NSFW)(1998 - present).[5] That same year, the streaming of live video from the University of Toronto became a social networking phenomenon.[6]
Lisa Batey and HereAndNow.net started streaming 24/7 in 1999, continuing into 2001. "We Live In Public" [7] was a 24/7 Internet conceptual art experiment created by Josh Harris in December 1999. With a format similar to TV's Big Brother, Harris placed tapped telephones, microphones and 32 robotic cameras in the home he shared with his girlfriend, Tanya Corrin. Viewers talked to Harris and Corrin in the site's chatroom. Others on camera included New York artists Alex Arcadia and Alfredo Martinez, as well as =JUDGECAL= and Shannon from pseudo.com fame. Harris recently launched the online live video platform, Operator 11.[8]
DotComGuy arrived in 2000, and the following year, the Seeing-Eye-People Project [9] combined live streaming with social networking to assist the visually challenged. After Joi Ito's Moblog (2002), web publishing from a mobile device,[10] came Gordon Bell's MyLifeBits (2004), an experiment in digital storage of a person's lifetime, including full-text search, text/audio annotations and hyperlinks.[11] Social networking took a quantum leap in 2006 with live webcam feeds on Stickam.
In 2004 Arin Crumley and Susan Buice met online and began a relationship. They decided to forgo verbal communication during the initial courtship and instead spoke to each other via written notes, sketches, video clips and Myspace. They went on to create an autobiographical film about it called Four Eyed Monsters. It was part documentary, part narrative with a few scripted elements added. "[12] They went on to produce 13 podcasts about the making of the film in order to promote it.
In 2007 Justin Kan arrived wearing a webcam attached to a cap, Kan began streaming continuous live video and audio, beginning at midnight March 19, 2007, and he named this procedure "lifecasting".
Recent years with the advent of smartphones and other pervasive devices the paradigm of life logging extended to ubiquitous devices. For instance UbiqLog [13] and Experience Explorer [14] employ mobile sensing to perform life logging. While other lifelogging devices, like the Autographer, use a combination of visual sensors and GPS tracking to simultaneously document where you are and what you see. [15]
Life caching and sharing lifelog information[edit]
Life caching refers to a social act of storing and sharing one's life events in an open and public forum.[16][17][18][19][20] Modern life caching is considered a form of social networking and typically takes place on the internet. The term was introduced in 2005 by trendwatching.com,[21] in a report that says that it had yet to occur but could potentially due to available technology. However, life log information is privacy sensitive, and sharing such information is associated with different risks.[22]

The AHL will benefit in the coming week, adding more NHL talent to their already accomplished league. Los Angeles Kings General Manager, Dean Lombardi confirmed to Helene Elliot of the LA Times that goalie, Jonathan Quick will play for the Kings AHL affiliate, the Manchester Monarchs during the lockout.
Quick recently signed a ten year, 58 million dollar contract extension this summer following the Kings Stanley Cup run during the summer. He won the Conn Smythe trophy during that run, awarded to the most valuable player in the playoffs and is rarely awarded to goalies. During the postseason, Quick posted an outstanding .946 save percentage along with three shutouts during the Kings playoff journey.
This transaction was allowed due to his injury occurring prior to the lockout, therefore allowing Quick to play for Manchester. He will likely take over as the Monarchs starting goalie, helping mentor young AHL net-minder Martin Jones.
All the rest

The Kimball basketball boys journeyed to Howard Lake Friday, Jan. 31, to take on a tough Lakers bunch. Despite a gaudy 13-point Cubs' halftime advantage, a second-half hometown flurry gave Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted the ultimate 66-59 victory. Junior Joey VonWahlde topped Kimball
with 26 points in the Central Minnesota Conference clash. The Lakers scored the first two points of the game and the Cubs scored the next 20. Howard Lake managed to whittle the score down to 37-24 at the half. To start the second half, the Lakers went on an 8-0 run, and with 13:01 left, they regained the lead 41-39. The game stayed close the rest of the way, but Kimball could not quite overcome Lake's momentum. "Joey VonWahlde stepped up and played a great game, popping for 19 points in the first half. In the second half, we struggled shooting the ball, missing a lot of lay-ups," Coach Jay Klein said. Game scoring summary: Hennen, 3; VonWahlde, 28; Hunt, 12; Spaulding, 4; Merchant, 12.
Whether they like playing makeup games or just prefer playing on a Saturday at home, the Kimball boys' basketball team came out firing on all cylinders Feb. 1, as they handed their rival Rockford Rockets a 75-62 loss. The lead went back and forth with Rockford taking a 38-34 advantage into the halftime break. Rockford started the second half on a 6-0 run to gain a 10-point lead. The Cubs gradually worked their way back into the game and VonWahlde hit a three to tie it at 54 with 6:58 left. After the Rockets took a 2-point lead (56-54), Mathias Hennen's three gave the hometowners a lead they would never again relinquish. Mathias went a sparkling 6/6 from downtown in the second half, and the victorious Cubs finished the game on an impressive 29-10 run.
Celebrating parents' night and alumni night, the Kimball wrestlers invited Pierz and Rockford to the party on Thursday, Jan. 30. The Cubs, like so many others in the past, fell to the ninth-ranked and undefeated (19-0) Pioneers, 51-18. At 126 pounds, Kimball's Blane Tschida, ranked second in the state, beat sixth-ranked Chris Ortman, 8-3. Kimball's Quinten Berres, who is ranked No.1, won by pin at 132 pounds. Brady Mehr, 138 lbs., was victorious by decision. Tschida and Berres both went 2-0, as did Kimball senior Austin Scheifelbein at 220 pounds.
Saturday, Jan. 25, the Kimball seventh-grade boys traveled to Olivia for a tournament. The team lost its first match to BOLD, then beat New Ulm and B-B-E to take fifth place in the
tournament. The boys were coached by Jarry Cole. It was a great day of basketball. In the photo, in front, left to right are Brendan Maurer, Jake Traurig, Carl Blanchard, and DeAndre Borge. In back are Riley Miller, Zack Streit, Casey Gohmann, Noah Jurek, Drew Gustafson and Coach Jarry Cole. Submitted photo.
The Kimball wrestling squad met up with Eden Valley-Watkins Saturday, Feb. 1, at Kimball in a makeup match from Jan. 7. The Cubs were tough and ag
gressive and dominated the Eagles, 54-23. Michael Donnay, Blane Tschida, Quinten Berres, and Matt Donnay, each earned pins in the contest. "We had another good week for wrestling. We had three Central Minnesota Conference matches and we went 2-1, beating Rockford and Eden Valley-Watkins; and losing to ninth-ranked Pierz. We continue to wrestle well as the end of the season comes near," coach Mike Schindler said. Blane Tschida, Quinten Berres, and Austin Schiefelbein continue to lead the team and all went 3-0 this week with Quinten picking up his 150th career win.
Wednesday is the team seeding meeting for the section tournament. Thursday, the Cubs travel to Long Prairie-Grey Eagle to take on the host school along with Minnewaska, and Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted. Then wrapping up on Friday, Kimball goes to the Albany Individual Tournament.

Civil War Calendar
Civil War Notebook
From the Civil War Notebook:
Norman Shaw, President of the Knoxville Civil War Roundtable sends this note about PBS airing tonight: Tennessee Civil War 150: Secession
•The bitter feud between Tennessee Gov. Isham Harris and Knoxville newspaper editor William "Parson" Brownlow---and the impact it had on Tennessee---is one of the lesser-known stories examined in "Secession," the first episode of Tennessee Civil War 150, a new series that will eventually comprise six documentaries about the state's role in the war. Produced by Nashville Public Television in conjunction with the Renaissance Center to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the war's beginning, "Secession" will air on several other dates throughout the month.
•BTW, this airs immediately after the Ken Burns' Civil War series. It's great to see that again, especially author/historian Shelby Foote.
Chris Small, Founder of The Lincoln Project National Chair, 2011 Association of Lincoln Presenters sends this information about upcoming Greeneville convention:
•The Association of Lincoln Presenters will hold its national convention April 15-16 in Greeneville.

The 113th is the second oldest military band in the country and played in the Lincoln-Johnson Inaugural Parade.
•Free tickets to this event available at NPAC (Box Office 423-638-1679). American Legacy is sponsored by Takoma Hospital and other underwriters.
The Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum (ALLM) of Lincoln Memorial University is pleased to announce its first Civil War Sesquicentennial Event which will be held Saturday, April 16, 2011 in the Arnold Auditorium of the Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum. The Civil War Symposium will follow the Museum's annual commemoration of President Lincoln's death --Now He Belongs to the Ages -- scheduled for 10 a.m. April 15, 2011.
•Symposium lectures will begin in the Museum's Arnold Auditorium at 9 a.m. Saturday, April 16, and feature Dr. Earl J. Hess, Lincoln Memorial University; Dr. Thomas Mackey, University of Louisville; and Dr. Brian McKnight, University of Virginia at Wise. The lectures presented will address the effects of Civil War within the tri-state region of Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia. A Question and Discussion session will follow the lecture series.
•The ALLM's first Civil War Symposium will also feature special "open house" tours of archival storage areas.
The registration fee is $35 per person, $15 for students and includes a luncheon along with morning and afternoon refreshments. Checks should be made payable to the Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum. Seating is limited to 140 individuals.
For additional information, contact Carol Campbell, Director of Programs, by telephone at 423.869.6439 or via email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
"The first shots that mattered" were fired at Fort Sumter in Charleston Harbor early in the morning April 12, 1861. It's the place to be for the commemoration of the beginning of the war.

I recently started responding to a forum post, realized my post was growing ever-larger and mostly revolved around the topic of, "I think this guy will be better, but this guy, not so much...", and realized I was heading down the exact same path which caused me to create a questionable blog last year. And what's the best thing to do with questionable blogs? Pile on more, of course, making it into a "yearly" questionable blog topic (which assumes I may remember in future years).
I've been tossing this idea around in my head a bit as I start getting excited for the upcoming season. We have lots of highly rated prospects, lots of depth, lots of unknowns. I sat back a little and tried to figure out who I was actually most interested in seeing how they performed this year. This isn't a Top 10 prospects list, smarter people than me have already done those.
I'm assuming Buxton will dominate. I'm interested in that, certainly. But he's not the guy I'm most interested
With all the talk of late as to who might be our "shortstop of the future", one thought keeps popping back into my head. It's a thought that probably has about as much chance of happening as my winning the lottery twice in my lifetime (and since I haven't won it once yet, unfortunately...) but I can't shake it. Thinking about it a little more has caused me to think about a few other things, like what you want in a shortstop, not just who should be playing the position.
Somewhere, somewhen, I realized I'm generally ill-suited to responding to internet forums as I often type up ten times as much information as is really suited to being in a forum post. It hasn't stopped me from doing it, but it has stopped me from posting more than about 1% of the things that pop through my head when reading forums. I type up a response to a thread that starts growing as I try to add details to clarify why some of the things I was saying were as they were until it gets to the point
