Forex Ambush 2.0 Review
From the looks of it, Forex Ambush 2.0 appears to be an offering from those same folks who brought you Stock Assault 2.0, an automated stock picking software program we told you about last month. There are similarities and differences between the two systems.
While Stock Assault 2.0 is downloadable software, Forex Ambush 2.0 is a membership site you join. When we visited their website, we read that in the future the subscription rate was going to be $197 per month, but for a limited time there was an introductory special where membership could be obtained for a one-time fee of $197 and no further charges.
Another thing we noticed was that there was an impressively long list of testimonials from people who had success using Forex Ambush, but presumably this was the first version and not version 2.0. We do not know what the difference between the initial offering and this upgraded incarnation may be.
Nobody should get involved in any kinid of an investment program thinking they are going to get rich quick and therefore are willing to bet the farm. On the contrary, investing does involve risk and nobody should invest more money than they can afford to lose. That being said, if Forex Ambush is being sold with a 60-day money back guarantee, and if they suggest you can start making money with as small an investment as $250, then perhaps this so-called artificial intelligence technology may be worth looking into more deeply.

Americans are in crisis preparation mode
Firearms dealers all over the USA are having a hard time keeping any inventory on hand for anxious customers. Reports are that guns and ammunition are selling at levels up to 50% higher than previous records.
The demand for gold has similarly erupted. The third quarter of 2008 showed global sales 45% higher than the quarter before, which itself set the previous high-water mark.
Survival gear and emergency food producers are shipping product as fast as they can get it through their facilities and onto the loading docks. Using packaging technologies that deliver shelf lives measured in years and even decades, producers of storage food are experiencing unprecedented demand today for their products.
Victor Rantala, owner of the crisis preparedness company Safecastle LLC, said: “Our business volume this year will triple over last year, and most of this increased activity has come in the last 3-4 months.
“By far, our best seller right now is Mountain House freeze-dried food. It stores for more than 25 years, it’s easy to prepare, and it tastes great. Outdoorsmen and adventurers consider it a preferred staple. Our customers, those who are looking at a future that looks very uncertain, see it as a way to lock in today’s prices and to ensure a level of peace of mind that is hard to otherwise put a value on.”
Said Rantala, “Anxiety and bearish outlooks abound wherever one cares to look today. There’s precious little a concerned citizen can do in reaction to global forces spinning out of control. But we all do what we can. At Safecastle, we’re particularly happy to give our customers this holiday-season opportunity to become better positioned for what looks like rough times ahead.”
One highly respected company to deal with for emergency preparedness supplies is American Family Safety. Among the products they offer are the very useful customizable emergency kKits for home and school.
They have an extensive list of supplies for specific emergencies, including earthquakes, hurricanes, blackouts and even terrorism attacks. Although we do not believe people should panic about the times of trouble that may be ahead, it is always better to be safe than to be sorry. That is why it may be a very wise idea to be invest in a Safety Kit so you can stay safe.

Can we negotiate our way ouf of this economic crisis?
Could it be that the era of confrontation is ending and a new time of sitting down and talking over one's differences is beginning? That is the way some people are thinking new president Obama will be dealing with conflicts both internally and internationally. Imagine meaningful negotiations between, for example, Israel and Palestine. Well, there is a new book that people are talking about that could help anyone in a negotiation situation.
Whether you're negotiating with an intimidating boss to keep your job, a big bank to keep your business alive, or an entire nation to keep it moving forward, one of America's best-selling new books has answers you'll need this holiday season.
In ''Negotiating with Giants: Get What You Want Against the Odds,'' negotiation expert and Harvard MBA Peter Johnston relays dozens of real-life David & Goliath stories from across history, surfacing lessons we can all use to handle the growing number of giants in our personal and professional lives. Combining Wall Street smarts with sympathy for the little guy, Johnston hits a nerve with millions of Americans who face a faltering economy that produces new giants every day. The author's acclaimed book tackles our most challenging negotiations and conflicts, laying out unique strategies and concrete steps for negotiating everything from messy divorces and brutal hostage-takings to deals with hulking business titans such as Wal-Mart.
"If you feel like David looking up at Goliath, this insightful and entertaining book is now your best weapon - for individuals, entrepreneurs, smaller organizations and smaller nations," says Mark Edwards, a successful international business executive.

''Negotiating with Giasnts'' has been featured in media worldwide, including CNN, PBS, FOX, Business Week and Oprah & Friends, with Johnston responding to questions about mortgages, credit cards, personal relationships and the role that giants have played in the current economic meltdown. Reviewers have unanimously praised the book's stories and down-to-earth advice:
"Highly readable." - The National Post
"'Negotiating with GIANTS' has an almost folksy style that easily carries the reader through the six chapters ... With Johnston's book in hand, readers have some powerful ammunition they can use to fight and win." - The Chronicle Herald
"Very valuable." - CNN News, Issue #1
"One of the world's leading negotiation experts changes how we should be thinking about our most challenging negotiations and conflicts." - Jules B. Bloch, LLB, Professional Arbitrator
"Informative and engaging." - Embassy Magazine
We wonder if this book could help people negotiate their relationships back together. We have a friend who keeps telling me she needs to find a way to get back with my ex boyfriend.
