To the Limit – Widescreen Subtitle $24.99 Speed rock climbing is the latest wrinkle in the growing pantheon of extreme sports; high-speed climbers take the basic rudiments of mountain climbing and shift them into overdrive, climbing sheer cliffs in a matter of hours rather than days. Filmmaker Pepe Danquart offers a look at this exciting new sport and two of its best-known proponents in the documentary To the Limit. Alexander Huber and his brother Thomas Huber are profiled as they demonstrate their skills in the mountains of Patagonia and set out to climb El Capitan, a mountain in Yosemite National Park over 3,000 feet high, in a furious 150 minutes, a notion Alexander jokingly describes as “an assault against common sense.” While featuring dazzling footage of the Huber brothers in action, To the Limit also offers an insight on the rivalry between the siblings and their passionate need to confront fellow climbers as well as nature itself. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi |

Vertical Limit – Widescreen Special $8.99 Family differences and personal grudges add drama to an already tense situation as the lives of a team of mountain climbers hang in the balance in this action drama. Peter Garrett (Chris O’Donnell) and his sister Annie (Robin Tunney) are the children of Royce Garrett (Stuart Wilson), an avid outdoorsman and climbing enthusiast who died when an accident left all three hanging from a single rope; Royce ordered Peter to cut him loose to save the lives of his kids, even though he knew it would mean his death. Years later, Peter has given up climbing and become a respected nature photographer, while Annie, who holds Peter responsible for her father’s death, is a famous world-class mountain climber who is hired by Elliot Vaughn (Bill Paxton), a self-made billionaire, to help him scale K2, a mountain in the Himalayas that’s the second-highest peak in the world. In the midst of the climb, dangerous weather strikes, and Elliot, Annie, and their crew find themselves trapped in a cavern that’s been sealed tight by an avalanche. Peter, who is near K2 working on an assignment, quickly organizes a crew of expert climbers to save Annie and the other mountaineers, who must work under a tight deadline before the trapped climbers run out of air. Peter’s partners in the rescue include beautiful medic Monique (Izabella Scorupco), radical climbers Cyril (Steve Le Marquand) and Malcolm (Ben Mendelsohn), disciplined Pakistani crewman Kareem (Alexander Siddig), and Montgomery (Scott Glenn), an eccentric outdoorsman who has a score to settle with Elliot. While backgrounds were shot on location in Pakistan, most of the climbing sequences in Vertical Limit were actually filmed on mountain ranges in New Zealand. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi |

Excerpt: David Kirkwood and Willie Gallacher being detained by police at the City Chambers The 1919 Battle of George Square , also known as Bloody Friday and Black Friday , was one of the worst riots in the history of Glasgow , Scotland , which took place on Friday, 31 January 1919. The dispute revolved around a campaign for shorter working hours, backed by widespread strike action . Clashes between the City of Glasgow Police and protesters broke out, and led to the British government sending soldiers and tanks to the city to prevent any further gatherings due to their fear of a social revolution , described as a 'Bolshevist uprising' by the then Secretary for Scotland , as had happened the previous year in the 1917 Russian Revolution and was occurring in Germany whilst the 'Forty Hours' strike unfolded. The Forty Hours Strike Before the First World War , the standard working week was 54 hours. National negotiations had established a 47-hour working week for men in the shipbuilding and engineering trades, to be introduced in 1919. A Joint Committee of shop stewards, members of the Scottish TUC and Clyde Workers' Committee however proposed a campaign to limit working-hours to 30 per week, which was altered to 40 per week after the Glasgow Trades Council became involved. It was however opposed by the Amalgamated Society of Engineers and most other unions. The immediate objective was to alleviate unemployment, exacerbated by the Post-World War I recession , by sharing out available working hours more widely at a time when unemployment |

3-D Negotiation: Powerful Tools to Change the Game in Your Most Important Deals $11.4 Most current practice, thought, and discussion on negotiation-even the tremendously successful Getting to Yes-use an exclusively "at-the-table" perspective, focused on tactics, persuasion, psychology, empathy, and other elements of the interactive process of negotiation. Of course, these "1-D" elements are important, even crucial in many instances, but they are not sufficient as a long-term, consistent approach in high-stakes negotiations. The authors add depth and complexity to our understanding and practical approach to negotiations by articulating a "3-D" perspective, focused not only on the surface process, but also on the hidden, potential value to be unlocked with skillful "deal-design," as well as the architecture of the game itself. 1-D: Tactics, at the Table. This is the people side of negotiation, the direct interpersonal dealing: setting the right atmosphere, choosing the most effective style, building trust, listening and shaping communication dynamics, framing arguments, persuading, deciphering body language, accurately reading personalities, and bridging cultural differences. This dimension is vital, but tactics at the table are only one part of the story. The real action is often elsewhere, with tactics merely the visible surface of a deeper approach. Great negotiators do not limit themselves to a 1-D strategy in a 3-D world. 2-D: "Deal design, " on the Drawing Board. 2-D negotiators relentlessly look past interpersonal process and tactics to the underlying substance of the problem, diagnosing just where potential value exists and how to craft agreements that could unlock this value. Along with persuasive tactics, a sophisticated 2-D negotiatorinstinctively employs powerful principles of deal design-which the authors will illustrate-that help figure out and structure sustainable, value-creating agreements. 3-D: "Gamecrafting," away from the Table.
