WASHINGTON - Federally mediated negotiations toward a new NFL labor deal lasted about eight hours Sunday, the third consecutive day the league and its players' union met to try to find common ground before the current contract expires. NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith didn't stop for questions as he left the Washington office of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, a U.S. government agency, shortly after 5 p.m. He and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell arrived within minutes of each other, shortly before 9 a.m.
Most of us don't buy cars all that often. So when we do, we can come away with that nagging feeling of not knowing whether we got a fair deal or grossly overpaid. We don't negotiate much at all as Americans, so suddenly we find ourselves negotiating for not only a very expensive product, but a very complicated product," said Jack Gillis, author of "The Car Book." "We are matching wits with a seasoned professional who negotiates all the time and has actually been trained in negotiating. Right off the bat, you go into a showroom, and you are like a lamb being led to slaughter.

We were proud to have the Rev. Al Sharpton and Lee Saunders, secretary-treasurer of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, rally the labor and faith communities in New Haven. Unfortunately, the Register's editorial on their visit did a disservice to readers. Under the Municipal Employee Relations Act, all expired contracts in New Haven are in arbitration. That's a legal fact and it buttresses the point made by Sharpton and Saunders about the consequences of Mayor John DeStefano Jr.'s unwillingness to negotiate in a reasonable manner. Our union leadership met with the mayor Feb. 12 after we demanded it. Unfortunately, DeStefano left that meeting after a school paraprofessional questioned the wisdom of trying to force low-paid workers onto a costly health care p...
MINNEAPOLIS - Roger Goodell and DeMaurice Smith took their new buddy act on the road Wednesday, creating a buzz among rookies in Florida then returning to Minnesota for talks to try and end pro football's labor impasse. The NFL commissioner and the players' boss took questions from rookies at an orientation symposium in Sarasota, Fla., where recent draft picks were glad - and relieved - to see their two surprise guests.
In lease negotiations, property managers strategize how to negotiate the best possible deal for their client -- the landlord. When the market is strong, they focus all their attention on the needs and concerns of their client, but often lose sight of the concerns of their tenants. In today's weak economy and depressed real estate market, property managers and leasing agents must be prepared for some of the toughest negotiations in decades. The first issue is the base rent. The best way you can be prepared to negotiate the rent is to have a complete understanding of the market and competing buildings. The reality is that concessions are needed to make most lease deals work in a weak economy and a soft real estate market. You should develop, with your building owner, a lease negotiation s...
