This usually does not happen. You can always ask. I have seen banks make concessions to buyers and yes some do allow some closing costs credits. Your offer needs to be structured to try to help cover the potential costs.
All the best,

the higher purchase price to get the credit for closing costs at the closing....But yes you can always
try at the time of presenting the offer.
Good Luck to you

However, as Ron stated below, typically they will never "pay" for your closing costs. You will often have to, in effect, "finance them into your loan" by having to increasing your offer to account for the credit they are giving you.
Hope that helps! If you have any additional questions please contact me directly, or via my website: http://www.SelectiveBuyer.com. I'd be happy to explain everything to you in detail.

When last we spoke, we had the honor of introducing the newest most precious addition to our family. Our sweet Ella recently made it to five months of life and in that time she has established herself as the undisputed mini-matriarch of the Ezell household. She has four brothers inextricably wrapped around her dainty fingers. The boys spend their afternoons competing with each other for the opportunity to hold her, kiss her forehead, and make her smile. Watching my boys interact so lovingly with their baby sister… I don't have the words. I, however, being the totally unflappable father that I am, have somehow remained unswayed by Ella's remarkable charm, adorable gummy smiles, perfect little chubby cheeks… yeah okay I'm smitten too. Ella has perfectly completed our family. Being her Daddy and watching her grow is a privilege and a blessing.
Love from the Ezell Family
Three Good Things:
- Baby Cuddles (does it get any better?);
- Family of all types (even the ones you choose);
- Feeling love amidst the heartache and being reminded we serve an ever-present God.

NEW YORK (CBS) Former WWE wrestler Chris Kanyon, whose real name is Christopher Klucsaritis, was found dead in his Queens, N.Y. apartment Friday night after he apparently committed suicide.
Chris Kanyon's Tragic Death
In 2004, Kanyon made headlines when he publicly announced he was gay.
During his wrestling career, from 1997 to 2004, he fought for the World Championship Wrestling and World Wrestling Federation, renamed World Wrestling Entertainment in 2002, under the name "Kanyon," according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Kanyon planned on using his homosexuality as an element in a wrestling character, according to Fox News.
Chris Kanyon's Tragic Death
He also reportedly suffered from bipolar disorder, according to Fox News.
Kanyon was found dead in his Sunnyside, Queens apartment with "scores of pills near his body," reported the New York Daily News.
An official cause of death has not yet been determined.
The WWE issued a statement on its website saying, "World Wrestling Entertainment would like to express its deepest condolences to Christopher Klucsaritis' family and friends on his tragic passing." Klucsaritis was under contract with the WWE from 2001 until 2004.
After 2004, Klucsaritis still wrestled on occasion, billing himself as an openly gay wrestler, according to The Associated Press.

I bought this for my 22 month old Daughter who has loved Toy Story since before she turned one, and she instantly fell in love with Woody. It was the first present I let her open on Christmas and that was a big mistake because after she did she didnt want to stop playing with him to open any more gifts! I had to beg her to open the rest, and even when she finally gave in she held Woody tight in one hand and opened all the other gifts with her one free hand. lol To this Day Woody goes EVERYWHERE with her (eating, sleeping, watching tv, visiting Grandma etc). She even crys when I make her leave woody at home when she has to go Daycare. The love she has for him is amazing and I recommend ANY kid who loves Toy Story to have this toy. The detail is right on point to the movie and the pullstring makes him an official Woody Doll. It is absolutely the best Woody Doll you can buy. Trust Me. :-)
We bought this for our son on his third birthday, and he fell in love. But it kept saying the same things over and over for about a week until we put it on "on" instead of "try me" lol. My friend got it for her daughter and she had it on the same thing until I tolder her. But after that it was awesome. Woody can "sense" when you take on and off his hat!!! My son loved it so much, that we had to buy him a cowboy hat to match woody!!!
A family member bought "Woody" for my 3 year old and he and my 18 month old love him! Once the "Try Me" option was switched to "On" and they started taking the hat on and off they were elated! One qualm--if Woody hasn't been used for a while, and his hat has been off, he won't recognize it as being back on unless you pull his string to activate him again...in which case, he starts to say one saying and then immediately says something about his hat being back--kinda funny to hear "There's a--Hey! I got my hat back!" :)
--The kids do not realize that the voice of "Woody" is not Tom Hanks--and without these other reviews, I might not have known either.
--After three days, there are scuff marks on his head from being dropped, but I accept that, like in the movie, he will lose some paint up there! (I just didn't expect it this soon...but oh well)
The kids love "Woody"! Definitely buy this toy! The price is worth it for the durability, the detail to character, and the fun!--in fact, we might get another one for the 18 month old for Christmas since the boys love to sleep with him in their beds!
With the exception of an exact Tom Hanks voice, this doll couldn't get more accurate. My 2 year will not let it out of his sight. It is for 4+ and I think that maybe because of the care of the doll. Not sure its going to hold us to his "treatment" - dropping it, throwing it, etc. The hat recognition stopped working this morning and we've only owned it 20 hrs. however I played with the buttons and turned it off and on a few times and now it is working again. Its definitely a must have for a Toy Story fan!
This product seemed great...at first. It was slightly disappointing that the voice isn't all that similar to Tom Hanks, but my son really loved it. And I say "loved" as it is now very broken...beyond repair. It's been less than a month since I gave this to my son, and Woody's head has fallen off. My son wasn't pulling at all...and it turns out that the neck has a VERY thin connection to the body, making it a very flawed design and impossible to repair. I have a very broken-hearted boy here! Even though it was his favorite toy, I don't think I'll be replacing it. From what I've read, I'll just lose $30 to another broken toy.
Soft, durable and has many sayings. My son loves Woody
My son isn't quite 2 yet, and this Woody doll is his favorite toy...He love to take his hat off and on, and talks to Woody...He loves Woody! We even put his name on his boot like Andy did in the movie.
My son was playing with this toy and the head fell off. My son was beyond devastated. It took me 30 minutes to calm him down. I thought that spending $35 on a toy would ensure that it would last longer than a month. It's not fixable, very disappointing.
Our son loves the toy (no surprise there...). But his head did fall off as many others have noted. There is not enough surface area to properly glue it back on. I used Gorilla glue inside of the head. There is a post that goes up to the top (for the hat sensor). By filling the head about 1/4 full with Gorilla glue and moving the toy from right side up to upside down for 15 minutes while the glue starts to set up (without letting it drip out of the neck), you will glue the head from the inside to that post. Just make sure you clamp it overnight so it doesn't get croked as the glue expands while it dries. I am pretty sure it is not going anywhere now.
Grandma bought this for our son on his 2nd birthday. One of the only words he says intelligibly is "WooDeeee"! I hope the reviewer who said "it's alright" and that it doesn't do what it's supposed to reads the instructions or this review! There is a switch on the back of Woody (under his shirt/pants) that changes him from demo/store mode to "ON" or "OFF". In demo mode he only says a few things and the interactive hat thing doesn't work. You have to switch it to ON for the full effect. The interactive hat thing didn't really sound that exciting to me until my son started playing with it. Any time you take Woody's hat off, he says something like "a cowboy without his hat is like a yodeler without a hey hee oooo". When you put it back on his head he says something like, "shwew! that's a relief! I've got my hat back!". There are numerous different phrases so it doesn't become too painfully repetitive. So far my son finds this ENDLESSLY entertaining. It really keeps him engaged with the toy which is cool. I have no idea, however, how we're going to manage to keep track of the hat! That should be fun.... Overall - HIGHLY recommend - just remember to read the directions!
My child loves it. The toy says may phrases including ones from the movies. Does not however say, "Someone poisioned the waterhole." Like the interactive part with the hat.
This toy is not meant for toddlers, nor is it meant to be treated like Sid treats his toys: ) My boys love their Woody and Buzz dolls, but it seems obvious to me that they aren't meant to be treated rough, dropped or thrown around. The voice is great, all the sayings are great (make sure you change the switch on his back from "try me" to "play"), and he did notice when you removed and replaced his hat. However, 3 months later, he no longer notices and will randomly say things if you jostle him around. Overall, I think it is a great toy and exactly like the Woody in the movie. However, it is a NICE doll and will break if treated rough. I'm pretty sure it was the treatment from my 3-year-old that did him in, but they still love playing with him.
I purchased this Woody for my son, and am LOVING it. The hat recognition technology is really fantastic, the price is great for the value, and the doll is very well made. A big difference over the last Woody we had (made by another manufacturer, not Thinkway). I only have three complaints: 1) He is a little bit too tall, scale wise, in comparison to the Blast Off Buzz Lightyear. He is sized more for the Toy Story Collection Buzz by Thinkway.
2) I would have loved it to be Tom Hanks voice.
3) He is missing the 'Somebody's poisoned the water hole!' Otherwise, PERFECT. For $10 more, Thinkway gives their other Woody (Toy Story Collection) the original voice.
My big boy (who is now 16 years old) has always loved Woody. He has always wanted a talking Woody and I got him one for Christmas. I found his Christmas list and Woody was at the top of that list. I ordered it right away. I cannot wait until he opens his gift. He reminds me of Andy and I know that Woody will go to college with him in a year and a half. Some kids just never forget that favorite thing that brought them happinss as a young child. My son's is his little buddy Woody.
I purchased Woody for my 3yr old son after we had already bought Buzz the week before! I was worried that since it was packaged under Toy Story 3 that he would not have his "sayings" from 1 & 2 like "reach for the sky" or "there's a snake in my boot" but he does!! He sits and watches Toy Story 1 and 2 all day and has Woody and Buzz right beside him. The only let down is that Tom Hanks is not the voice for the doll, but we still love it! Now he is begging for Jesse.
We love the Talking Playtime Woody Doll. Two boys in our house - 3 (almost 4 yrs) and 5 yrs -- who fight over Woody since Christmas Day (2 days), because he's one of their favorite toys! The hat recognition is a fun feature, and makes him more "real." We're heading to our local Walmart to buy another one. The price at Walmart is the lowest we found. This talking Woody helps them act out scenes and make-believe scenarios (along with their talking Buzz). Great toy!
my grandson received this as a Christmas gift less then a month ago. He dropped it one time and now Woody's head rattles not just a little, a lot. Woody does not respond to his hat coming off. He also no longer says as many sayings he should. My grandson doesn't know that there is something wrong but to pay that much for a toy and for it break that fast makes me upset. I did not purchase it, but I am upset about it. My tip, DO NOT DROP WOODY!
My son is 21 months old and LOVES Buzz and Woody...he never leaves the house without them...I really loved this toy and was happy with it until one morning on our way to daycare Woody's head somehow came off in the diaper bag...not fixable. My son walked around all day saying WOODY FIX...MOMMA FIX WOODY. I expected better quality for a $35 doll. No choice but to buy again. :S
I bought this online so I could not test it out first. There is a pull string on the back so you can test it in store...the voice is not the original from the movie, neither are the sayings. The size and look of the figure are wonderful and I am sure when my son sees his Christmas gift he will love it. I hope he doesn't notice the voice or any other differences.
Got this for my 3 year old grandson's birthday. He totally loves it and will not part with it!!!! So far the toy seems to be nicely made. Just make sure you switch it to "play" mode when you receive it as it does not function to it's full ability until you do that. I definately recommend this toy to anyone that has a Toy Story fan on their gift list!

Hello, 63: Lowest rounds in major championships
Short story: Rory (MC) struggling with short game
Rory McIlroy's second-round 69 wasn't good enough to make the cut at Baltusrol.he's had six top tens this year but two missed cuts in Major Championships . Yeah. He needs to look no further than the short game and the putting in particular a lot of missed short putts to the right. It's his putting stroke. He's got to figure out the mechanics of that putting stroke because if he can have a little bit more confidence in the mechanics and start hitting the putts The short putts online, the long game is right where he needs it. So Rory McIlroy missed the cut at the US Open at Oakmont. And at the PGA Championship. Hard to believe. Yeah pretty surprising. For Trip Eisenhower I'm George for more coverage of
Streb (63) after tying major record: 'Pretty exciting'
Robert Streb talks about his 7-under 63 in Round 2 of the PGA Championship.A 63 on Friday, tying the major championship record. Where in the world did a route like this come from for you, Robert? I have no idea. It's been a
Streb birdies last hole for 63, share of PGA lead
Robert Streb goes into the weekend co-leading the PGA Championship.he had was at the PGA last year. So has been a dry spell so I doubt few people had him on their shortlist of guys who would be in contention this week at Baltusrol but that really the iron game was been solid The difference between round number one and round number two George is that he was playing from the short grass. He only hit five fairways in round number one. He hit eleven in round number two. The putting is solid and that putt 21 feet to tie history. Amazing stuff. Any time you can put your name on the list of those players that have shot the lowest round in major championship history well you got to be proud of that. But We're only halfway done and we'll see if Robert Streb can stand

Fowler finishes birdie-eagle to reach 4 under
Rickie Fowler is four under after two rounds at the PGA Championship.the late charge, we've seen it time and time again on this golf course , 17 and 18, that's how you take advantage of a beautiful shot into 18. That looked like the Rickie Fowler of a couple of years ago that was in Major championships , contending in all four Major championships . He's right there, we'll just see. If the putter warms up a little bit, the iron game gets just a little sharper, more like it was in round number one. He's hitting his tee shots just fine. So that's okay. And his chipping and pitching is just fine. We'll see what happens with Rickie Fowler. Eventually he's going to win a major championship. Could it be this week in New Jersey ? I wouldn't be surprised. You'd think he has a low round in him given the body of work from the last few

Their result for The Would You Have Been a Nazi Test ...
The Expatriate
Achtung! You are 38% brainwashworthy, 27% antitolerant, and 19% blindly patriotic
One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism. Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt.

From the FDA web site. Really, 4 years for a phase I study?
Estimated Enrollment: 46
Study Start Date: January 2012
Estimated Primary Completion Date: December 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure
IMGN isn't testing safety on healthy subjects for ph1. Instead, IMGN went with subjects with relapsed NHL making recruitment difficult. They are probably hoping to see good activity in that patient group and advance the drug to phase 2/3 based on that.
I think this has been enrolling slowly due to high tox issues with the early, over-weight patients. Maybe now that they figured out the ideal body weight issue/solution, enrollment will speed up.

Ethnomusicology: A Very Short IntroductionOxford University Press 2013; US$ 7.99 US$ 6.87
Ethnomusicology, an academic discipline founded in 1950, has been defined as the study of the music of others. This definition, at once whimsical and very nearly true, is incomplete. Many of its strongest threads have emerged because a person or a people have wanted to understand themselves, their history, and their identity. This book examines the... more...

We may live in a technological age but, according to a new report, businesses may not be taking full advantage of the technologies which are available to them. The report, commissioned by Exact, revealed that just 6% of UK SMEs have invested in technology in order to respond to market developments; this despite the fact that 66% percent of businesses are facing increasing competition from new digital players in the marketplace.
The good news is that the same survey has revealed that 73% of UK SMEs are actively planning to grow, with 56% currently exploring the benefits of adopting new business models in order to remain competitive in a technological age. Online sales, cloud technologies and interactive reporting modules all appear to be on the priority list, with companies also looking to invest in partnerships and expanding the workforce as a way of boosting business.
When looking at technological solutions, one of the keys to success is to choose technology which will boost the business rather than adapting the business to suit the technological solution presented. It can be all too easy to be hypnotised by some great sales talk allied to a snazzy presentation; only to find that your brilliant new (and expensive) system doesn't integrate with your existing systems and will in fact take a lot more man-hours in order to deliver any kind of beneficial outcome.
Of course, unless you design your own system from scratch, the chances are that no system will exactly match your requirements but it is possible to get close as long as you are well prepared before you go out to the marketplace. Our top tips would include_
Understand your starting place. As leaders you are naturally one step removed from the day-to-day processes within your business. Your employees may be doing fantastic work in extracting value from existing systems and they will know far better than you what works and what doesn't. Taking time at the outset to understand not only the current state of your business but also the current state of your systems will help to clarify ideas. Make sure too at this stage that you take time to review your strategy, goals and values in order that your new system meets the latest growth plans.
Be clear on your requirements. One of the easiest ways to avoid being taken in by sales talk is to predefine your requirements, being clear about what you must have in order to deliver your strategy, what you would like to have as an aid to productivity, and what would be quite helpful as long as it doesn't come at a cost.
Test to destruction. If you can't test the system in advance then don't take it on. It is only when you put in your data and test potential process flows that you can find out whether the system will deliver as expected. Here, don't simply leave the testing to top-level management or the IT team; involve your customer contact people, your salespeople, your accountancy people, in fact anyone who is likely to actually use the system on a daily basis. Simply by assembling a cross department team at an early stage you can quickly see whether the new technology is going to boost or hinder your business.
Above all else, don't tie yourself into a system which will only deliver within fixed parameters and which will therefore need to be replaced as the business grows or changes. Flexibility and scalability are the name of the game for businesses which want to stay one step ahead of the competition. So choose a system which will grow and change as your business develops, delivering additional functionality as you need it without having to pay upfront for features which you may not require for a couple of years.
Given the speed of technological development, it is easy to see how the business which stands still is the business which is swiftly left behind. On the other hand, the business which makes the most of smart technology, which chooses systems with one eye on flexibility and scalability, and which is clear on leveraging technology in order to deliver a defined strategy is the business which is in the best position to stay ahead of the competition in an ever-changing marketplace.

New data teases enormous 'Planet Nine' may exist
Researchers say new data suggests a massive planet, one about ten times the size of Earth, circles the Sun in a huge orbit that takes between 10,000 and 20,000 years. This celestial body has been dubbed 'Planet Nine,' and assuming it exists, it lies far out in the solar system in the Kuiper belt. Alas, no one has actually seen Planet Nine at this point in time.
