Negotiation - Dealing With The Early Phases
Fri, 25 Apr 2008 00:07:38 PDT
The early phases of negotiation consist of both sides finding out more information before talking about a specific deal or set of alternatives. For example, if you find out the other side has a time deadline that only your company can meet, it may give you the chance to negotiate a more favourable price. If you know that the other side has recently expanded their production capacity, you may be able to negotiate more favourable terms in return for a commitment to buy certain volumes over a
Faster–Why Constant Stress is Part of Our Future
Fri, 25 Apr 2008 00:07:57 PDT
By Alex Iskold, Blogger, ReadWriteWeb A few weeks ago, the New York Times ran a weekend piece entitled In Web World of 24/7 Stress, Writers Blog Till They Drop, which focused on the stressful nature of blogging. Using our friend Marc Orchant’s death and Om Malik’s heart attack as examples, Matt Richel built a case for web journalism as the cause of certain health woes because of its non-stop, 24/7 real-time nature. There is no doubt that news blogging is stressful. But it is not just blogging.

Chinese weapons ship heading back to China
Fri, 25 Apr 2008 00:11:21 PDT
Great news. Gambling on the long term future of Robert Mugabe is a losing bet. China already is unpopular in Zimbabwe due to previous arms shipments so if they want anything to do with the new government, this was a smart move."The Chinese company has already decided to send the military goods back to China in the same vessel, the An Yue Jiang," said the spokeswoman, Jiang Yu. China's decision will be welcomed as a victory by the dockworkers, trade unionists, religious leaders, western diplomat
I’ve Been Conned

‘Where do you meet these guys???’ said my 16 year old son last night. I was telling him about my recent discovery that Mr. Scotland was not in fact, a one woman man as he had professed to me but a condom-free player. The multiple partners thing I can handle, although it would have been nice to know how many others were on the team; the condom thing is a lot harder to swallow. If people want to take risks with their own life that’s their choice, just don’t risk mine. The news came from a
Pictures Of War - “Standard Operating Procedure” from Errol Morris
Fri, 25 Apr 2008 00:12:15 PDT
From the time of Matthew Brady, photographs of the horrors of war have beseiged those not in attendance to share and remind us of a view of that reality. Whether it’s a battlefield strewn with the remains of the valiant of the Civil War, or the images from the Vietnam war of the child fleeing from the Naplam attack or the man shooting his handcuffed prisoner in the head, or perhaps the most famous image of war, the soldiers raising the American Flag on Iwo Jima. One thing that has been the ha

The new Spanish Defense Minister and the Zapatero government’s policy…
Fri, 25 Apr 2008 00:13:02 PDT
The Spanish Socialists have a fascinating job on their hand dealing with issues - particularly on the progressive social side - which are now considered settled elsewhere. Yet in doing so they have, to my mind, pointed up just how inconsistent and in some respects shallow the dispensations are in other countries. Therefore there was something rather heartening about seeing the new, and visibly pregnant, Defense Minister, Carme Chacon, reviewing the troops in Madrid a week or so ago. Zapater

Last night I received a text message from my Boss, asking if I am still open to discussion regarding my “resignation.” Unfortunately he’s on leave today so he told me if we could discuss this face to face tomorrow, during our company outing. Hmmm… Hopefully it’s good news, as I’m really a little hesitatnt to transfer to the other comapny. My staff talked to me asking if I can just stay becuase we already have a good team and they’re used to my management style. Some of my colleagues have also
