WASHINGTON (AP)
FOLLOW ALONGThe Olympic torch relay is on its epic journey to London. Keep track of where it is on the road to the games HERE.

Tough start for the Americans. The Olympic basketball team couldn't get a stop, the president couldn't get a kiss.

Eventually, things worked out for both of them.

LeBron James scored 30 points and the United States rallied from an early 10-point deficit to beat Brazil 80-69 on Monday night in its final exhibition game on home soil.

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden watched the Americans get off to a dismal start, then turn it around by holding the Brazilians to two baskets in the second quarter.

''They came out really counterpunching and taking advantage of our aggressiveness on defense, and they're well-coached. They came in with a great plan and executed their plan very well start of the game,'' US guard Kobe Bryant said. ''We made our adjustments second quarter, kept them to five points, which after the 20-something point first quarter is pretty impressive.''

CAPTAIN AMERICATeam USA shows weaknesses against Brazil, but LeBron isn't one of them Lebron Shoes Sale Online. 5 THINGS WE LEARNED.

James helped the US pull away in the final four minutes after they led by only seven with 4 1/2 minutes left, getting his final point on a free throw with 31 seconds left as Obama departed. James scored 14 points in the final period.

Kevin Durant, a DC native, added 11 and Chris Paul scored 10 for the Americans, who will leave Tuesday for Europe to complete their Olympic preparations. They face Britain in Manchester, England on Thursday before traveling to Barcelona to play Argentina and Spain.

It's a solid exhibition schedule, and this game showed the Americans have some work to do before they get to London. They were just 1 of 12 from 3-point range in the first half and struggled offensively when forced to play in the halfcourt.

''It felt good, though, to compete and stuff like that,'' Paul said. ''Like we said, our defense is what's going to win games for us and obviously we imposed that after the first quarter.''

The president met with the men's and women's teams, who swept the doubleheader from Brazil. He received a loud cheer when he arrived but like the US players got off to a slow start Cheap Kobe 9. He needed a second chance in the fourth quarter before first lady Michelle Obama would grant him a kiss on the ''Kiss Cam'' segment, the crowd booing when she wouldn't allow him a smooch in the second quarter.

THE 'IT' LISTWho are the sexiest athletes to look for in London this summer?

''You know, PDA is not for everybody, you know what I mean?'' Bryant said. ''But he makes the important decisions, so it's all good.''

Players were just walking onto the floor for the jump ball when Obama and Biden emerged from the tunnel to take their seats. The start was delayed while they greeted fans, and perhaps the break had the US players out of rhythm at the beginning of the game.

James hit two free throws to open the scoring, but the Americans didn't make their first basket until more than 2 1/2 minutes in after falling behind 7-2. Alex Garcia had two 3-pointers and two other baskets in the early going as Brazil pushed the lead to 17-7 barely five minutes into the game.

Indicative of the way things were going for the Americans, Russell Westbrook came up with a steal near midcourt and was all alone for a layup that he somehow botched Wholesale Nike KD VI GS. The Brazilians scored the final four points of the period, taking a 27-17 lead on Anderson Varejao's jumper with 15.5 seconds left.

Brazil coach Ruben Magnano said through an interpreter the goal was ''not to focus on the names on the jersey and play the game, and they did it for almost 40 minutes ... head to head against the USA.

''It was a very important challenge to make the team ready for the Olympics,'' he added.

But the Americans got the tempo they wanted in the second, simply wrestling the ball out of Brazilian hands to create turnovers and fast breaks. A 12-0 run fueled by steals and layups turned an eight-point deficit into a 33-29 lead, and James powered to the basket for the last two baskets of the half as the Americans went into the break with a 37-32 lead.

The Americans expected and got a much tougher game than their exhibition opener, a 113-59 rout of the Dominican Republic last Thursday in Las Vegas. Brazil has loads of NBA size to exploit the Americans' biggest weakness, with Nene of the Washington Wizards, Varejao of the Cleveland Cavaliers and Tiago Splitter of San Antonio, plus experienced guard play.

Garcia scored 14 points to lead Brazil and Varejao finished with 12 points and 13 rebounds. Marcelo Huertas had 11 points and 13 assists.

Brazil gave the US its toughest game at the world basketball championship two years ago, the Americans pulling out a 70-68 victory when Leandro Barbosa's shot from the lane bounced off the rim as time expired.

HEY, STRANGEREx-teammates meeting was just one nugget of intrigue as Team USA faced Brazil. VIEW PHOTOS.

Of course, that US team didn't have James or anyone else from the team that won the 2008 Olympic gold medal and are the favorites to repeat. The Americans believe they have a better squad than four years ago and maybe even could have beaten the Dream Team, but perhaps it's time to end that debate.

The Dream Team never found itself in a six-point game with six minutes to go, as the Americans did after Varejao tipped in a miss. The US finally pulled away in the final 4 minutes, started by consecutive baskets by James, a 3-pointer and a bucket in the lane.

''We just had a slow start, missing shots, some shots that we make every single day in practice,'' center Tyson Chandler said. ''But the good thing about tonight is they showed us some looks that we haven't seen so far and we're learning defensively from it, and we'll make shots.''

Looking Ahead to the 2013 OGS Conference
With the start of school and Family History Month scheduled for October, our thoughts turn to where our genealogical journey may take us this year. Fresh from this year's OGS Chapter Management Seminar sponsored by the Ross County Chapter, I am "ready to go." So how exciting that this year's conference will focus on how technology can aid us in our genealogical search.
The theme for this year's conference is "Expanding Your Ancestry Through Technology." It is scheduled to take place from Thursday April 25 through Saturday April 27, 2013 at the Millennium Hotel in downtown Cincinnati.There will be 98 lecture topics organized into specific research tracks, such as DNA, German, Irish, Military, African American, land, methodology, regional, professional and many technology tracks from national and state speakers.
Once the conference brochure and schedule are finalized, I will be posting about the research tracks, speakers, and sites you might want to consider during your visit to Cincinnati and Hamilton Co. You don't even need to remember to check for updates. Simply add your email address to the RSS feed and you will receive an email when new content has been added to this blog.
As a life-long resident of this region, I look forward to sharing what I love about this area, so rich in culture, geography, and genealogical resources. Should you have questions, post them in the comments section and I'll do my best to help to get you an answer.
Kathy Reed
Recording Secretary for the Hamilton County Genealogical Society

First published in 2007, this work has become one of the best-selling bread cookbooks of all time. Responding to years of feedback from readers, fans, and the online community, the authors have updated the original to include new recipes and photos, weight measurements, a better index, and a gluten-free chapter. They've also improved introductory chapters ("Ingredients," "Equipment," "Tips and Techniques") to address seemingly every question readers may have. VERDICT With this revised edition, Hertzberg and François continue to perfect their already easy and immensely popular bread-baking method. Essential for public libraries.[Page 100]. (c) Copyright 2013. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
Hertzberg and François return to five-minute-a-day bread making with new additions, including more than 30 new recipes and a gluten-free chapter. For those unfamiliar with the first edition, think artisan loaves made with high-moisture dough, sans proofing and kneading. Dough is made ahead of time (about a 15-minute commitment) and stored in the refrigerator until ready for use. Step-by-step photos guide readers through the process. Chapters including Ingredients, Equipment, Tips and Techniques prep home bakers before getting to the Master Recipe. Straightforward instructions with numbered steps guide readers through flatbreads, pita, bagels, brioche, and a variety of loaves. Additional, nonbread recipes such as gazpacho, chilled yogurt soup, and spicy kebabs lend meal ideas to be paired with baked goods. A fun, easy-to-follow collection for those who aren't afraid to shun baking traditions. Agent: Jane Dystel, Dystel & Goderich Literary. (Oct.)[Page ]. Copyright 2013 PWxyz LLC

This article was last edited by Masterchief (talk| contribs) 7 years ago. (Purge)
Compilation of developer notes on changes in 1.6.
Added ACL tables (todo - list them) Removed jos_groups table
JDatabase::setQuery casts the sql variable to a string. This allows you to pass an object that implements the __toString magic method.
JModel::getState will now take an optional second argument to set the default. $value = $model->getState( 'foo', 'bar' );
Both JFile::write and JFTP::write now use a reference for its second argument. Code like JFile::write($filename,'string'); will fail, however $data = 'string'; JFile::write($filename, $data); will work for both 1.5 and 1.6
JAuthorization::getUserAccessLevels( $section [, $action = 'view'] ).
Join for access level
LEFT JOIN #__groups AS g ON g.id = c.access
LEFT JOIN #__core_acl_axo_groups AS g ON g.value = a.access
Legacy Mode
Only available in legacy mode (to be dropped in future versions):
global $mainframe- Use
$app = &JFactory::getApplication()instead.
- JTemplate (patTemplate completely deprecated)
Files/Features Dropped
Don't forget to do this:
- Access Level links in backend lists need to be refactored to support the new levels available in the jos_core_acl_axo_groups table.

April 1, 2001
By Alton K. Marsh
Stephen Pitcairn died of cancer on March 29, 2008. He was 83.
Stephen Pitcairn likes anything that has an engine. That's why his hangars at Trenton Robbinsville Airport, New Jersey (near Philadelphia), are filled with motorcycles, cars, and a 1943 tractor, in addition to the Autogiro and open-cockpit Mailwing biplanes that his father made famous.
It's not a museum, but Pitcairn welcomes visitors. If you're lucky, you just might see one of the antique aircraft flying on any given day, seven days a week if the weather is good. He regularly flies the PCA–2 Autogiro at the airport's airshow each fall and at events in his area. All the Mailwing biplanes are flown as well.
You may already be familiar with the Pitcairn Autogiro, invented by Juan de la Cierva of Spain and developed further by Harold F. Pitcairn, Steve's father, in the 1920s and 1930s. President Herbert Hoover presented Pitcairn and Cierva with the Collier Trophy on the White House lawn for the development of the Autogiro. However, you may not be aware that Pitcairn was an aviation pioneer in other ways, playing important roles in the development of airmail service and the helicopter. He began in aviation at a time when the public was afraid to fly, and his dream was to develop an inexpensive and safe aircraft that would change that public perception.
The senior Pitcairn was eventually granted patents that were key to the successful development of the helicopter in the United States — a fact upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in a lawsuit filed by Pitcairn against the federal government over royalty payments. Igor Sikorsky cut eight years off the development of his first true helicopter in the 1940s by licensing patent rights for control mechanisms from Pitcairn.
Pitcairn designed and built Mailwing aircraft in his factory at Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania. He later moved the factory to Willow Grove, Pennsylvania, where it still stands — now used by a company that manufactures test instruments. In fact, Willow Grove was Pitcairn's property, but as a patriotic gesture he sold it for a pittance to the Navy during World War II for the establishment of Willow Grove Naval Air Station. His successful airmail business was sold in 1930 and renamed Eastern Air Transport, the forerunner of Eastern Air Lines. Stephen Pitcairn flew for Eastern for three years during World War II.
If Harold Pitcairn's career could be summed up in four words, it would be these: He built good aircraft. The Mailwings were among the sturdiest construction on the market, thanks to superior welding and, some say, the use of square tubing. One Mailwing crashed into Stone Mountain near Atlanta at night in poor weather, but the pilot survived. They could be flown hands-off for long periods of time because Pitcairn knew that capability was important to airmail pilots. Pitcairn's aircraft met and often exceeded factory specifications for speed and payload.
"It met its design criteria perfectly," says Mike Posey, who is in charge of the restoration of Pitcairn's collection. "The planes were generally better equipped than other aircraft." Posey and James Cole have restored nearly a dozen aircraft to historically accurate condition for Pitcairn. Gail Henk helps out on a volunteer basis. The three might be called "Steve's elves."
It's no wonder Stephen Pitcairn grew up loving airplanes. He was a toddler when the Pitcairn company was building Mailwings, and old enough to develop a serious interest in aviation when the mail service was sold to concentrate on the Autogiro. But he says there was no one reason for his interest in aviation.
"I just wanted to fly," he recalls. He learned to fly at age 16 in 1940 at Philadelphia's Wings Field, the same airport where AOPA was founded in 1939. He recalls flying a Cessna 140 off the lawn of Cairncrest, the family home in Bryn Athyn. That same lawn was the scene of numerous Autogiro landings, including a flight carrying Autogiro inventor Cierva when he came from Spain to visit Pitcairn.
The prize of the Pitcairn collection is the PCA–2 Autogiro, with PCA standing for Pitcairn Cierva Autogiro. It had wings because the ailerons were needed for directional control, but later-model Autogiros had no wings. Pitcairn's engineers developed a method for tilting the rotor itself, the key to today's modern helicopters. The PCA–2 was built in 1931 and cruises at 100 mph. It sold for about $15,000. It is powered by a 330-horsepower Wright R-975 engine that burns about 19 gallons of fuel per hour. Pitcairn, the only person in his company who flies it, has taken it around the nation.
"I took it to Oshkosh, and to Florida near Jacksonville for a movie. It was called The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking, based on a kid's book," Pitcairn says. Pippi Longstocking depicted a pilot who went out to rescue some girls in a barrel on a river with a waterfall. Actually it was [filmed] on a golf course. I came flying over with a big ladder hanging down the side." In actual life, the girls would have needed quick hands, since the PCA–2 can't hover.
Seventy years ago large companies used the Pitcairn Autogiro for advertising. The aircraft not only attracted attention, but it stopped traffic and often ended up in movie newsreels. Companies using them included the Detroit News (that Autogiro is now in the Henry Ford Museum), Champion Spark Plugs (the same one Pitcairn now flies), Coca-Cola, and Sun Oil.
"The early Autogiros had wings, ailerons, and elevators because all your control was through those control surfaces," Pitcairn says. "You had no control of the rotor. The only control you had was on the ground — you could bring the rotor up to speed by a power take-off [from the engine]. You [then] released the clutch so that you no longer had power to the rotors. The problem was that when you slowed it down to 30 mph you would lose your aileron control. When you'd do a landing and a flare, you almost stopped — the ailerons were useless. My dad came up with direct control [of the rotor head], so all your stick movements were related to the rotor head. You could do away with wings, elevators, and ailerons. There were wingless Autogiros built after that."
Amelia Earhart set a few records in an Autogiro for altitude and distance, but she also crashed twice. Autogiros didn't do well in what are called drifting landings — a crosswind — and had to be landed directly into the wind. The rich and famous were intrigued by the aircraft, sometimes using them for going to sporting events or, as one Pitcairn ad suggested, to the country club. The innovative Autogiro also brought praise from inventor Thomas Edison.
While the Autogiros got all the press coverage and consumed all of the company's attention and resources in later years, it was the Pitcairn Mailwing that was the workhorse and early breadwinner. In all, about 145 were built. Perhaps the real credit for starting the mail service should go to the banks of that era, as Pitcairn family archivist Carl Gunther explains.
"Banks in the South found that they could have their receipts picked up in the late afternoon, trucked to the airport, flown to New York clearinghouses, worked on overnight, and trucked back to the airfield early the next morning. There was a 24-hour turnaround vs. the 72-hour turnaround that it took using the trains. This saved the banks $3 million that first year [of airmail service] in interest payments alone," Gunther says. The airmail pilots flew at night by following a string of light beacons spaced 10 miles apart along the route.
Driven by such economic advantages, the government offered contracts to fly the mail. Pitcairn was successful in winning first a New York-to-Atlanta route and then an Atlanta-to-Miami route. At the time, Pitcairn was already in the aviation business, building aircraft for ride hopping, flight training, and personal sport. The PA–5 was the first Mailwing. Pitcairn didn't realize until after he purchased his present PA–5, originally built in July 1927, that he had restored his dad's personal aircraft. It could carry about 500 pounds of mail. In its standard form, it cruised at about 105 mph, but the senior Pitcairn made some changes for his personal use. "It was highly modified," Pitcairn says. "My dad took it back to the factory and had later-model wings put on it and a bigger engine." The modified PA–5 has a 230-hp Wright R-760 engine burning 11 gallons per hour and cruises slightly faster.
The PA–5 was followed immediately by the PA–6, which had a fuselage 12 inches longer than that of the PA–5. In addition to increasing the payload to 549 pounds of mail, he got an unexpected bonus of an additional 8 to 10 mph in cruise speed, compared to the standard PA–5. The PA–6 had a Wright J-5 nine-cylinder engine, the same engine that Lindbergh used. "They stopped making those engines in 1930," Pitcairn says. The PA–6 was used extensively by all the airlines, including American Airways and Trans World Airways. The one Pitcairn owns was built in July 1929 and sold for $8,500.
The PA–7S in the Pitcairn collection was the sport model of the Mailwing, and while it could carry the mail, it was aimed at air-race pilots and aviation enthusiasts. That explains the snappy turquoise side panels of the 250-hp, 125-mph aircraft. The one Pitcairn owns was once owned by a coal company and was used for distributing free samples of its product. It was specially painted for the coal company. "This airplane came out of the factory coal black with chrome struts," Pitcairn says. "The company that used it — the Horizon Coal Company — used it to buzz small towns, then land in a cow pasture and hand out free bags of coal to get people to buy their coal. This plane had what looked like a mail compartment, but it was used to carry coal."
The Mailwing line ended with the huge PA–8, a 330-hp aircraft capable of carrying 1,000 pounds of mail, 100 gallons of gasoline, and any size pilot. Originally it had the 330-hp Wright R975-E engine, but Pitcairn found that such engines were impossible to find, so his PA–8 has a Wright R975-E3 nine-cylinder, 440-hp engine. It can cruise at 135 mph.
The PA–8 also has a number of innovative features. Not only does the seat adjust, but the controls move up and down with the seat. There are four pedals on the floor — the inside pedals are brakes while the outside pedals are rudders. Carburetor heat and cockpit heat are provided. The plane could fire magnesium flares to light an area one mile in diameter from 2,500 feet (the flares were removed and disarmed with the aid of the Pennsylvania State Police). Mechanical retractable landing lights are located underneath the wing (as opposed to the fixed landing lights of the PA–6). It also had a Sperry artificial horizon. Finally, the aircraft came with an eight-day, seven-jewel Waltham clock.
There were only six PA–8 aircraft made, so Pitcairn is lucky to have snagged his 1931 model. "That was about the same time the Douglas DC–2 and Ford Tri-Motors were coming along," Pitcairn says. "The government said, 'You guys with contract airmail, you've got to carry passengers along the same route as your contract, but you don't have to carry them in the same airplane.' So my Dad bought three Ford Tri-Motors. The PA–8 was used by Eastern Air Transport [after Pitcairn sold his airmail service] until 1936. They phased them out because they had the DC–3s and –2s that would carry mail and passengers."
Hand-tooled latches for the mail compartment and engine cowl were mostly gone when Pitcairn began his restoration of the PA–8. A craftsman in rural Pennsylvania who makes antique doorknob hinges and locks for antique barn doors was asked to duplicate them. He studied a remaining latch and made 16 of them.
Stephen Pitcairn's collection is not limited to aircraft developed and built by his father's company. The favorite of his collection may be the Bellanca Viking because "It's the best airplane flying." In all, he has 11 aircraft, including a Schweizer 300C helicopter. The collection includes two Luscombes (a 1946 8A and a 1940 8C Silvaire), a 1980 Great Lakes 2T-1A2 for aerobatic maneuvers and fun flying, and a 1946 Globe Swift GC–1B. The Luscombe company built the fuselage for a later refinement of the Autogiro, the PA–36 cabin Autogiro.
One of the workers said Pitcairn brings an air of excitement and energy to his restoration workshop. That energy is obvious as he zooms by the hangar door over the nearby runway, exercising a Mailwing or flying the PCA–2 Autogiro. Sometimes he will bring the 1935 Indian Chief or 1953 Big Chief motorcycles out for a spin on the airport grounds. Those rides, he revealed after intensive questioning, have reached 90 mph — but that was in his youth when he was 75. He's 76 now and presumably more mature.
He is as proud of his antique cars as he is of his aircraft. His 1906 Maxwell L94 won a national first-place award for restoration. He also owns a 1911 Midland, a 1909 Sears and Roebuck (Sears sold everything), and a 1957 Ford Thunderbird.
At first, the organization of Pitcairn's hangar makes little sense. There are named plaster dogs, a teddy bear that Pitcairn thought was "cutesy" that sometimes holds a beer can while sitting on a Mailwing, an electric train, and models of draft horses. Are the toys there, he is asked, to please the kids who frequent his workshop? No, he answers, they are there to please Stephen Pitcairn. "I'm still a kid at heart," he adds.

Your local rock group down the street
Is trying hard to learn this song
To serenade the weekend squire
Just came out to mow his lawn
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Charcoal burnin' everywhere
Rows of houses that are all the same
And no one seems to care
See Mrs. Gray she's proud today
Because her roses are in bloom
And Mr. Green he's so serene
He's got a TV in every room
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land
Mothers complain about how hard life is
And the kids just don't understand
Creature comfort goals
They only numb my soul
And make it hard for me to see
My thoughts all seem to stray
To places far away
I need a change of scenery
Ta ta ta
Ta ta ta
Ta ta ta
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Charcoal burnin' everywhere
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Here in status symbol land
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Another pleasant valley Sunday
Another pleasant valley Sunday

Operation: Homemade PastaJenny
I know, I know. Homemade pasta is probably the last thing you have time to do. But for those of you into project cooking with the kids, I just wanted to make sure you were aware of this awesome little thing. I've always been afraid to attempt homemade pasta, but this Imperia machine could not have made it easier. (More on that to come, soon!) Now, I just need to find the perfect dough recipe. I've tried a Jamie Oliver recipe that was ok, and one from the Gourmet Cookbook, which was easy, but was made in the food processor…and for some reason that felt like cheating — any leads appreciated.

We now know the names of the two people involved in a rollover accident in New Bern Tuesday morning on Highway 70 which resulted in the driver getting ejected. Troopers said they suspect alcohol was a factor in this wreck.
Troopers say the 24-year old driver, Michael Riggs Junior was not wearing his seatbelt when he was thrown from the car. He and his 22-year-old passenger April Everett were both taken to the hospital after their vehicle overturned along the Trent River Bridge. Troopers say Riggs and Everett live at the same address in New Bern.
Troopers said a 24-year old driver and 22-year-old passenger were both transported to the hospital after their vehicle overturned on a bridge, ejecting the driver.
Troopers said the vehicle veered out of the lane while traveling along the Trent River Bridge on Highway 70 in New Bern early Tuesday morning. The vehicle hit the guardrail, the driver over-corrected and hit the opposite guardrail before flipping the vehicle.
Troopers said they do suspect alcohol to be a factor in this wreck.
The wreck was cleared by 5 a.m.
Dispatchers confirmed a vehicle flipped over along a Highway 70 bridge.
Highway Patrol dispatchers tell WITN early this morning, a vehicle flipped over on the Trent River Bridge, that is along Highway 70 in New Bern.
Dispatchers had no further information to release but said that by 5AM, the wreck was cleared.
Troopers declined to comment on the accident until later Tuesday morning.

(Northampton, MA) — Northampton is one step closer to establishing a new stormwater utility fee for property owners. The city's Ordinance Committee unanimously recommended the measure Tuesday night. The fee would pay for much-need repairs to the city's stormwater and flood control systems, initially raising up to 2-million per year. The investment is needed because of new mandates and regulations from FEMA, the EPA and the Army Corp of Engineers.
Under the plan emerging from the Board of Public Works, non-profit, commercial, and residential property owners would all receive bills in the mail. The impetus was to be fair by basing the bill upon the amount of runoff a property generates. Every parcel in the city will be evaluated for its impervious surfaces, including parking lots, driveways, and rooftops.
Credits would be available for improvements that handle storm water on site. Residential properties would be divided into three categories.
Farmers would be assessed a small flat fee, regardless of how many parcels they own.
One issue that remained unresolved was a last-minute amendment by Councilor Jesse Adams. So-called "Amendment M" would ensure the money never gets used to pad the general budget. The Adams amendment was sent to the City Council without a recommendation so the full body can debate its merits.
The Council will take up the matter of the storm water utility fee when it meets March 6th.

Most communication involves negotiation. Aside from 'splitting-the-difference' most people don't know a lot about negotiating. They are not very good at getting very good deals for themselves.
One of the most important things to remember when negotiating is to ask lots of questions. Very often, you need to ask questions of yourself. Why do you want to buy? How much do you want to pay? When do you want to have it? Try and remember what the writer Rudyard Kipling once said: 'I keep six honest servants; they've taught me all I know. Their names are what, why and who. And when and where and how.'
Most people make the mistake of thinking that negotiation is a complex science. It's not. It's usually just two people both trying to get the best deal for themselves: the person who is selling and the person who is buying. And there is no honest reason why both sides can't reach a price which makes both of them happy. Here are 10 of my favourite points about negotiation.
First, don't even consider ripping off the other person. If you've got a good product that's priced higher than it can be bought elsewhere, then you'd better have a very good reason to justify your higher price. What are you offering that the other seller is not offering? If nothing, then all you've got to offer is price. If you are in a price war – as so often happens today, especially with cars and white goods – there's only one way you can be sure of winning. Guarantee the best price.
That's right; don't just say that your price is best. Guarantee it. If they buy from you and later (within, say, 30 days), they see it advertised cheaper with someone else, then say you'll refund the difference. I love honest guarantees in negotiation. They instantly move you closer to closing the transaction and they make you feel good. You don't go away with that nagging feeling that maybe you could have got it even cheaper elsewhere. So this sort of negotiation is simple. If you're the seller, offer the best price possible. If you're the buyer, do some research and get to know the prices.
There is, however, one wonderful seven-word question which you should ask the other party, regardless of whether you are buying or selling. That question is: 'Is that the best you can do?' You'll be astounded how many times this soft little question saves you a stack of dollars. One final tip on this question: Ask it a second time with one more word added. Once you've got what you are told is 'the best' that can be done, ask this eight-word question: 'Is that REALLY the best you can do?'
I estimate that the first time you ask this question, you'll get a better deal at least 50% of the time. The second time you ask the question – with the word 'really' added – you'll get a better deal (in total) about 75 per cent of the time.
Finally, the most important word in negotiation is 'fairness'. It's the first and final rule.

Senator Walks from Climate Bill Talks, Announcement Postponed
Posted By Brit Liggett On April 26, 2010 @ 12:00 pm In Environment,global warming,News,Policy,Renewable Energy | 1 Comment
Today was the day that we, the citizens of the United States, were to have a comprehensive climate change [1] and energy [2] bill laid out for us to admire. Sadly this morning, instead the long-awaited bill, we received the bad news that Senator Lindsey Graham walked away from negotiations, postponing the bill's announcement [3]. One of the chief architects — along with Senator John Kerry and Senator Joe Lieberman — Sen. Graham is outraged at the news that an immigration bill will be taken up in Congress before the climate bill. Sen. Graham wants the earth to go first (and so do we!), so he got up and walked away in protest.
Senator Graham is the only Republican author of the bill and is expected to be extremely important in garnering support from the right during Senate floor negotiations. From the start he's been adamant that the issues of energy [2] and climate change [1] are entangled and should be addressed in one bill, not separately — much to the dismay of other Republicans. At one point he even remarked to the public that an energy-only bill was a "half-assed" approach that he wouldn't be involved with.
Now he's left negotiations for all of the above in peril. In a letter to his co-authors — Senator Kerry and Senator Lieberman — he noted, "moving forward on immigration — in this hurried, panicked manner — is nothing more than a cynical political [4] ploy." Immigration is at the front of many American's minds — sadly much more than climate change [1] issues — and with upcoming mid-term elections he believes his peers are looking to gain some constituent support by reforming the system. Graham said that immigration reform is a process proven to go at a snails pace and would eat up the perfect moment for Congress to pass historical legislation to help the environment. And so we wait. Senator Kerry said he would proceed with work on the bill but wait for Graham to rejoin the negotiations before it is announced. Let's hope they resolve these differences and get on it soon!

The link to the publisher's site seems to be a link to the original book, not the new revised version. Is there a separate link for the new revised version? Or will we automatically be sent the new version if we order the book using this link?
OKi Alvin! I am soo excited! I finally had the money to buy your book and I can't wait til it comes. Now I feel like a full-fledged member of the EP Family. Blessings and abundance to you and yours and thank you for all you do keep us informed Oneh!
lol. the world is always changing, that's the reason dinosaurs are not here still, the continents are moving, the sun is getting bigger/hotter, the moon is moving farther away. Sorry to burst the apocalypse thinkers bubble but there has always been a cycle of creation / destruction. Once upon a time a star blew up and ours formed from its death, out of the dead star's material and its planets remains our solar system formed…….
The difference is you have to figure out a way to survive it this time.
Great timing Alvin. I am almost done with the mind-boggling first edition. Your book is so hard to put down, and I can't wait to read the revisions. Good thoughts to you!
superb picture for the front cover , love it
You picked the perfect video with this post…no matter what destruction comes to Earth, the followers in Christ are going to be still standing when time and space are through =)
Beautiful song! Reflecting my hope. Thanks for introducing it and her to me.
I've been patiently waiting Alvin! Will there still be a downloadable version online? Not sure weither to wait for that or just go ahead and order? I can't wait to read this!
Blessings as always
Alvin, I have learned so much from this site that I can actually use some of the scienctific terms when talking to people and when I do they are really listening and ask questions. When I explain, they want to know how I found out, of course I tell them about EP and how to get here. I just ordered your book and thank you for the discount and the valuable teaching experience.
God Bless
Will order the book.
Thank you for having the time to put it all together, as this is the only site that reads like it is in a real world, with aware perspective. I am sure when I get the book it will be of the same candor and meaning. By the way October 2011 should be an interesting time in this age of revealing.
What do you anticipate will be so special or interesting about October in particular (ie, why October specifically)?
Can we buy the book in an e-book format with DRM and all. Thanks.
I'm still reading the First book for a laymen like myself it's taking sometime to soak it all in. I look forward to the revision.
Uncanny how it these events are unfolding as I read your book Alvin. Better than a 10.00 seat at the Box Office on Doom and Gloom. This is real time…..
Thanks for being a Watchmen!
How much more additional information is in the revision EP? I bought your book in March & also recommended several other people I advise spiritually to buy it as I know it is a blueprint of Mother Earth's future & will in time become an extremely important work. I have no qualms in buying again, just curious as to what additional information is included.
I have also included my correct email – I have always been hesitant in divulging such information online.
Your book has come to my mail box in Norway, and I have started reading it. I would like to give it a recommendation on the front of my website. It would greatly help the marketing of your book if you made an available pdf of Contents and especially Introduction, which we could refer to (besides the link to Lulu for ordering).
I noticed that link the "Preview" gives access to Contents and Introduction.

Allan Spangler was one of a select group of cross-country skiers to choose back-to-back 30-kilometer races last weekend at Government Peak Rec Area at the base of Hatcher Pass, where he won races on Saturday and Sunday.
Skiers were given the choice of 5, 10, 20 and 30-kilomoter races both days in the Mat-Su Ski Club event, with Saturday's races requiring classic technique and Sunday's race being a freestyle event.
Spangler finished Saturday's 30-K classic in 1 hour, 33 minutes, 34.9 seconds to beat Abe Meyerhofer (1:38:29.2) by nearly five minutes. He clocked 1:19:32.8 in Sunday's freestyle, more than five minutes ahead of Leif Johnson (1:25:07.4).
Jordyn Block, who skis for Colony High, was the only female to ski a 30-K both days. She posted 2:09:15.3 to finish second in the classic race behind Kathleen Rehm (2:06:27.3), and won the freestyle in 1:54:12.9, just ahead of Melavee Stiassny (1:54.41.0).

Chris Chocola likes taking on his party's establishment and beating it at its own game. That's what he does for a living, and he has helped pull off some big upsets.
In 2007, the former two-term congressman from Indiana took the reins of the Club for Growth, a free-enterprise group that supports candidates who favor low taxes, oppose job-killing government regulations and seek fiscal policy reforms to expand and strengthen our economy.
When Mr. Chocola, who has a business background, became its president, the club was a relatively small organization, supported by about 35,000 contributing members. Under his leadership, it has mushroomed to nearly 100,000 donors and climbing. It has stayed lean and mean, with a staff of only nine people, plowing the bulk of its resources into key, carefully researched races. "We have very low overhead," Mr. Chocola said.
He has been responsible not only for its financial growth but also for picking winners among candidates who were given little chance of beating establishment opponents in the GOP primaries -- stunning political pros with come-from-behind victories.
In the 2010 Republican Senate race in Florida, Gov. Charlie Crist was the odds-on favorite. His challenger, former state House Speaker Marco Rubio, had little money, less name recognition and not much of an organization.
Mr. Chocola sank nearly $400,000 into Mr. Rubio's campaign early in the race, giving him the resources to overcome Mr. Crist, who was a supporter of President Obama's failed stimulus package and a man who was a Republican in name only. Mr. Crist made a last-gasp bid as an independent, but Mr. Rubio went on to stardom in the Senate and was on Mitt Romney's shortlist for the vice presidency.
"We were early supporters of Marco Rubio before he became Marco Rubio," Mr. Chocola told me in an expansive interview in the club's offices in downtown Washington.
Another strategic opportunity opened up in 2010 in Pennsylvania, where an unpopular Sen. Arlen Specter left the Republican Party and became a Democrat in a losing effort to hold on to his seat. The club put its money behind former Rep. Patrick J. Toomey, who was its president from 2005 to 2009, and put one of their own in the Senate.
The Club for Growth began in the 1980s as a group of Wall Street businessmen and free-market activists in New York who supported like-minded candidates. Over the years, they found that they could have a much bigger impact in the Republican Party primaries.
Mr. Chocola has since built on that strategy by focusing on a relatively small number of races -- "under 20 candidates on average," he said. "We tend to get involved where we can make a big impact." By impact, he means replacing tired, go-along-to-get-along establishment politicians with challengers who want to replace failed, big-spending, big-government policies with pro-growth policies that work.
The club certainly did that last month in the Republican Senate primary contest in Texas, where Mr. Chocola made his biggest bet in the club's history. Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst had the endorsement of most of the GOP establishment, including Gov. Rick Perry, for the seat of retiring Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. Tea party-backed challenger Ted Cruz, the former Texas solicitor general, was expected to be the runner-up.
Mr. Chocola plowed $5.5 million into Mr. Cruz's campaign. With the help of the Tea Party Express, also one of his big supporters, Mr. Cruz turned the race into a stunning upset. It wasn't even close. Mr. Cruz, a hard-core conservative, crushed Mr. Dewhurst in the rowdy runoff election by 53.6 percent to 46.4 percent.
The club also played a crucial role in the defeat of Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, ending a 36-year Senate career that had establishment politics written all over it. He was beaten by state Treasurer Richard Mourdock with the help of $4.5 million from outside groups.
Mr. Chocola goes to great lengths to emphasize what is really at stake in these contests. "Get better candidates and you get better policies. We're trying to build a majority of fiscal conservatives." In this year's House and Senate races, "I think people are looking for something new," he said. "They're saying, 'You guys aren't making this a better place.' They are for limiting the size of government, they want pro-growth policies."
This could be the year when voters will be gearing up to make that change, particularly in Congress, which is extremely unpopular. Senate Democrats have a tenuous 53-47 seat majority. Republicans need a net gain of four to take control of the chamber, three seats if they win back the White House. With the Obama economy tanking, unemployment rising, national poverty rates climbing and the federal debt soaring to unprecedented levels, Harry Reid's days as majority leader could be numbered. "Republican gains of two to four seats are likely at this point," said election tracker Stuart Rothenberg.
Democrats' Senate seats are rated tossups in Montana, Virginia and Wisconsin. Missouri and North Dakota were in the tossup/tilt Republican column at this writing. Mr. Obama and other Democrats don't talk about the economy nowadays, and for a good reason: It stinks. Last week, the U.S. Department of Labor reported that the unemployment rates rose last month in 44 states. It has become obvious to all but the most dyed-in-the-wool Democrats that economic growth isn't their strongest suit.
What we need are pro-growth policies to replace the tax-and-spend, anti-job policies we have now, and fresh faces in Congress who will vote to enact them.
The Club for Growth is getting us there one upset race at a time, replacing aging establishment pols with reformers to put America back on the road to economic recovery with plentiful jobs once again.
