Gentleman's Dub Club
Friday 11th October 2013
"When I talk about energy, commitment, vibes and excitement, you haven't seen anything until you've seen Gentleman's Dub Club." – David Rodigan
The band, although displaying strong Reggae influences, still remain very in touch with their British roots, and a Ska vibe runs strong throughout the new album 'Fourtyfour'. Older tracks such as 'Emergency' really bring forward a classic British, early 90's sound. All nine members of Gentleman's Dub Club create an incredible atmosphere on stage, an old-school feel not too dissimilar to the likes of Blur. Watch for yourself below.
Having already appeared at one of Croatia's famous bass music festivals, Outlook, these guys are building up an impressive fan base. Giving the album a listen you can imagine these tunes blasting out in the Croatian sunshine, merging classic reggae music with a contemporary dub feel, the band form a cross genre. Ska is also a very strong theme with the band, down to the way they dress and move about on stage, keeping a really strong identity and striking up similarities to No Doubt. Having supported The Streets and Roots Manuva previously, Gentleman's Dub Club have already got some big name friends.
'Feels Like' – Upbeat, trumpets throughout with nice little guitar riffs alongside a chilled bass line.
The band has also played at more alternative festivals such as Secret Garden Party. A festival not just about music, but a host to many diverse and alternative activities. Bringing back that summer feeling as winter is just arriving!
"Out of the whole new breed of reggae and roots acts around GDC are the most skankingly wicked and always smash it live and on record…immense!" — Rob Da Bank
With David Rodigan and Rob Da Bank's approval we can expect to see big things to come for Gentleman's Dub Club.
'Forward' – Dub throughout injected with guitar riffs, the nine-piece band definitely works well together, it's interesting to watch on stage such a large band working so well together. Bringing back to life a real British music vibe.
'Slave' – If you liked 'Forward' you will definitely like this track. With a really upbeat reggae bounce, this is definitely an end of the night song.

What's next for gold? And is the T-bill bubble about to burst? And how about the dollar -- is the strong dollar trade over?
We hear your questions and concerns. Strategic investor Dennis Gartman author of the Gartman Letter consults the charts for some answers.
Q: Is gold set for a rebound?
A: In this chart I'm seeing lower highs and lower lows. Until the trend line is broken I think it's a bear market in gold, answers Gartman.
Q: Will the T-bill bubble burst?
A: The bond market went sideways for a long time then broke higher. Prices are going up and yields are going down. I don't see the trend ending until at least the start of the new administration, says Gartman.
Q: Is the strong dollar trade, over?
A: I don't see any reason to be bearish on the dollar. I wouldn't be surprised to see the dollar get stronger and the euro get dramatically weaker after the turn of the year.
Q: Will steel bounce?
A: I think this is a great trade. If you want to own stocks I recommend looking at infrastructure. And I think Nucorhe best steel maker out there.

CHICAGO (12/17/14)--Auto loan debt per borrower will continue on an upward trend, rising to $18,244 at the end of 2015, according to TransUnion.
That would make 19 consecutive quarters of increases since the first quarter of 2011, when auto loan debt per borrower stood at $14,954.
The TransUnion forecast calls for the national auto loan delinquency rate (the ratio of borrowers 60 or more days past due) to end 2014 at 1%, and increase slightly to 1.27% at the end of 2015.
"We expect the auto loan market to continue to perform exceptionally well in 2015, with more sales leading to continued increases in auto loan debt per borrower as the national portfolio gets younger on average," said Peter Turek, automotive vice president in TransUnion's financial services business unit.
TransUnion anticipates the economy will continue to improve in 2015, with a better employment picture boosting the auto industry. "While the auto loan delinquency rate has slowly risen to a point where it will be above 2010 levels, we are still far off the peaks observed in 2008 and 2009 when delinquencies were more than 30 basis points higher," Turek said.
Since 2007, the auto loan delinquency rate has been as low as 0.86% (in the second quarter of 2012) and as high as 1.59% (in fourth quarter of 2008). On average, the delinquency rate during the fourth quarter between 2007 and 2013 was 1.29%.
While delinquency levels for subprime borrowers have grown to 5.3% in 3Q 2014 from 4.5% in 3Q 2013 and 4.2% in 3Q 2012, the contribution of this segment to the overall delinquency rate has been muted because its share has remained between 14% and 15% during this timeframe. Subprime share of balances had peaked in 2009 at just more than 22%.

When the Jets made a change at quarterback last week, Bryce Petty knew the job would not come his way. He understands the waiting game. His career stalled for 1,700 days before he finally became the starting quarterback at Baylor.
"86," Petty said, correcting. "1,786."
The excruciating delay — four years 10 months and a little over three weeks — between his final high school start and his first in college, in 2013, became part of what made his instant Heisman Trophy campaign so gratifying. (He finished seventh in the voting that year, far behind the winner, Jameis Winston, and just ahead of Derek Carr, who is now the starter for the Oakland Raiders.)
When the Jets took Petty in the fourth round of the 2015 draft, Petty rewound his personal play clock all over again.
Back to the bench Petty went. As of Sunday, it is 662 days and counting since his last collegiate appearance. Petty may still represent a work in progress as a quarterback, but he has mastered the art of patience.
As the Jets (1-5) host the Baltimore Ravens (3-3) on Sunday, Geno Smith will make his first start of the season at quarterback and the 30th of his N.F.L. career. Smith had been getting "antsy," he told ESPN, as he languished on the bench behind the incumbent, Ryan Fitzpatrick.
Smith, who was the Jets' primary starter for two seasons before being beaten out by Fitzpatrick in 2015, did not exactly hide his frustration in his role as the backup. But coaches and teammates say he has become a different player in the last year.
Fantasy Football 2016 | Week 17 Rankings
These player rankings from the Sablich brothers are for standard scoring formats and will be updated each week.
"What Geno needed to learn, and which he did, had nothing to do with football," wide receiver Brandon Marshall said. "It's about coming into work every day and being consistent."
Chan Gailey, the offensive coordinator, said: "There's no substitute for playing. But at the same time, I think he's gained a great measure in the last couple of years evaluating every day, rather than 'Go do it.'"
Now consider the restlessness of Petty, who graduated from high school in 2009, the same year as Smith. Petty, who lost some practice time after bruising his right shoulder in early September, might not have been a better option than Smith this weekend. But Coach Todd Bowles recently said for the first time that Petty's opportunity might be coming soon.
Until then, Petty, backup to the backup, will keep quietly waiting.
"There's a plan and a purpose for everything," Petty said.
Patience, he said, is not always an easy thing for a quarterback.
"When you've been a starter since you were a seventh grader, and now you're in a locker room with guys who are in their 30s who have been in this league for a while, it's tough to handle that mental aspect of it — not being the guy," Petty said.
This is a topic he often discusses with the rookie Christian Hackenberg, who started as a true freshman at Penn State, playing his first college game at MetLife Stadium. Now Hackenberg is the last-string quarterback for the only team in the N.F.L. with four quarterbacks on its active roster.
Petty has learned, too, how to channel his frustration into a desire to learn as much about the position as possible. At Baylor, Petty redshirted, then grayshirted, then became mired behind Robert Griffin III and Nick Florence for two seasons. When it was finally his turn, Petty took off. He threw for at least 300 yards in his first seven games, with 18 touchdowns and only one interception.
"There was an appetite there that maybe if I had started as a sophomore or freshman might not have been there," Petty said.
When he saw that Fitzpatrick arrived to the Jets' complex at 5:30 each morning, Petty started doing the same.
"He's got five kids at home and a wife," Petty said of Fitzpatrick. "My girlfriend's back in Texas; I ain't got nothing to do. What in the world am I doing at home when I could be up here?"
Petty's learning curve has been steep. The simplified offense at Baylor, where players never used a playbook and quarterbacks focused on only half the field at a time, is nothing like the complex system favored by Gailey.
Petty is not afraid to ask questions. He is willing to learn something from anybody.
"Today I was talking to Gilly," Petty said, referring to safety Marcus Gilchrist, "and found out there's a difference between two-man and quarters-man coverage. I had never heard of quarters-man before."
Bowles would not put a timetable on when he thought Petty could be ready to take over, saying only that he needed more practice time. But if the Jets make another quarterback change soon, Petty said, he hopes his countdown could finally be finished.
"I think patience is a virtue," Petty said. "It teaches you a lot about yourself — who you want to be when no one's looking. Because when you're the starter, everyone is watching."

Gaza militants fire rockets deep into Israel
JERUSALEM -- Palestinian militants in Gaza fired a new wave of rockets that landed deep inside Israel Thursday, defying Israeli retaliatory airstrikes.
Police said Gaza militants fired 10 rockets and mortars toward Israel Thursday, including two rockets that exploded north of the city of Ashdod, a main Mediterranean port city about 20 miles north of Gaza -- a first since Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers reached an unofficial truce following a three-week war that ended in January 2009. The fierce three-week offensive killed some 1,400 Palestinians, including hundreds of civilians. Thirteen Israelis also died. The violence threatened to escalate the day after a Jerusalem bombing which killed a British tourist, and five members of a Jewish family were slain while they slept in a West Bank settlement earlier this month. Israel has blamed Palestinians for both attacks.
Also this week, Israeli shelling killed three children and their uncle in Gaza. The army said it was targeting militants.

Future business activity in U.S. hotels rose in April according to the latest reading of the Hotel Industry Leading (HIL) Indicator. e−forecasting.com's HIL, a composite of nine predictive analytics which gauges future monthly overall business conditions for U.S. hoteliers, increased by 0.4% in April to 138.8, following an increase of 0.3% in March. The index is set to equal 100 in 2010.
"The probability of the hotel industry entering into recession in the near-term, which is detected in real-time from HIL with the help of sophisticated statistical techniques, registered 1.2% in April, down from 1.3% in March," said Maria Sogard, CEO at eforecasting.com. "As a result, the probability that the U.S. Hotel Industry will be in the expansion phase of its business cycle in the near-term marked 98.8% in April, higher than March's reading of 98.7%." Maria added.
"Five of the forward looking predictive analytics of business activity that comprise Hotel Industry Leading (HIL) Indicator had a positive contribution to its change in April: Jobs Market; Hotel Profitability; Foreign Demand; New Orders; Vacation Barometer; Four indicators of future business activity had a negative or zero contribution to HIL's change in April: Hotel Worker Hours; Yield Curve; Oil Prices; Housing Activity; " said Evangelos Simos, professor at the University of New Hampshire and series editor for predictive analytics databases at e-forecasting.com.

Professor Eugene Volokh spoke with Vice News about the presence of "hate groups"—such as white nationalists—on Facebook. Although the company has a system for detecting these groups and banning them from the platform, several are thriving on the site today. However, according to Volokh, Facebook shouldn't attempt to over-censor content on their profiles.
"It's a bad idea to interfere with serious important debates that are going on right now among American voters. That is not something that an American corporation should be doing," said Volokh.

One Israeli army vehicle was sacked on, and Palestinians planted a grenade that exploded on the Israeli side of the fence, the military said.
The IDF said that Israeli jets struck "five terror targets in a military compound belonging to the naval force of the terror group Hamas in the northern Gaza Strip" in response to the firing of four projectiles from Gaza.
"These terror activities included planting a grenade, hurling explosive devices, attempts to cross the security fence, damaging security infrastructure, and igniting fires in Israeli territory with the use of arson kites and balloons".
It calls for urgent steps "to ensure an immediate, durable and fully respected ceasefire" and asks UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres for a written report within 60 days detailing recommendations about "an global protection mechanism".
One rocket was intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome missile defence system and the other apparently landed inside Gaza, a statement said.
According to the Palestinian WAFA news agency, the Israeli artillery deployed near the border with the Gaza Strip fired at least two shells to hit the military facility.
Ambulances and medical crews attended the funeral, with Najjar's father holding the white blood-stained medics' jacket she wore when she was shot, as mourners called for revenge.
She was the second woman among more than 115 Palestinians who have been killed by Israeli army fire since Gaza border protests began in late March.
They came to retrieve her body from the hospital where she and her friends had cared for the injured of this increasingly bloody confrontation along the border between Israel and Gaza.
Palestinians on Friday gathered along the Gaza-Israel security fence - for the 10th consecutive Friday - to take part in ongoing rallies against Israel's decades-long occupation. The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said the number of wounded was greater than during the August 2014 conflict.
The UN's Office for the Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) also said it was "deeply concerned" and called for the protection of medical workers. "She was the first female paramedic in the field", Sabreen Najar said.
None of Gaza's militant groups claim responsibility.
Following the funeral, several Gazans were wounded in clashes east of Khan Younis, health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said.
Dozens of rockets have been launched from Gaza into Israel this week and Israeli Defense Forces have fired on demonstrators with live ammunition, killing about 60 people on May 14 alone, the day that the United States transferred its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, UN officials said.
Low-level demonstrations have continued since.
On social media, users are fervently sharing a photo of an Israeli soldier, who's reported to have shot in Razan's chest.

'A global conference that crosses disciplines like no other'
The International Conference On Knowledge, Innovation and Enterprise came out of a larger conference on innovation and entrepreneurship that has been going on for more than a quarter of a century. The KIE was borne out of a desire to emphasize the criticality of knowledge and creativity in innovation. The KIE is a member of the World Education Fellowship, the world's oldest international educational science learned society, has has held conferences in different location around the globe in the last decade.
There has been a number of annual international conferences on innovation, entrepreneurship (not enterprise) and knowledge transfer in recent years, but none has really attempted to provide a common, fertile global platform for practitioners and subject experts in the fields to cross-
As I look forward to meeting up with you in Madrid, Spain on 21 July 2020, I hope your contribution at the conference will help our global economies to strengthen the links in the knowledge, creativity, innovation and enterprise chain.

Speaking to Dickinson in his home studio outside of Toronto, Canada, he tells us he's always been musical, playing the trombone in middle school and high school, as well as bass guitar for a number of years. "My whole family is musical — I've just been around it for a long time, and I'm a musically-inclined person," he says. "I have an ear for things."
But how exactly did he go from a sleepy Canadian suburb to the worldwide pop charts? After churning out beats in his bedroom, Dickinson started sending music to the rapper Famous Dex, who linked up with Rich the Kid shortly thereafter. "I actually just DM'd Rich on Instagram," he says. "I told him I'd been sending Dex stuff, and I just asked him for his beat email. He started liking my beats and pretty much started messing with me from there."
Now, Dickinson has put together an exclusive kit for Sounds.com called The Lab Cook: Plug Walk Kit. The release includes over 100 one-shot sounds and loops, and it's all samples Dickinson created himself. "I don't use a lot of sounds that other people made," he tells us. "I like to take the time to create sounds that are different. I tried to create stuff that was kinda unheard of and unique in my own way." He says users can simply drag some of the drum loops into their tracks, and throw a melody on top of them. "They're all mixed and levelled right, and keyed properly," he notes.
Dickinson says he uses Native Instruments' KONTAKT and Spectrasonics Omnisphere, primarily, for sound creation and manipulation. "I don't really need much else," he says. " I don't use a lot of synths — I like to use keyboards, bells, strings, stuff like that. I tend to make a lot of up-tempo melodies. I like to do a lot of reverse stuff as well; I'll reverse sounds to give a cool element and texture to the melody. A lot of times I don't really know what I want to do, so I just experiment — that's what you've gotta do."
Dickinson insists that what's included in the Plug Walk Kit is pure Lab Cook. "These are all sounds I use — my signature sounds," he says. "I like to create things that sound like you've heard them before; I like to trigger some sort of subliminal nostalgia, but make sure it's unique in its own way."
And, as Dickinson reminds us, he's only just getting started. "Personally, I don't think I have a sound quite yet," he admits. "I've only been producing seriously for two years. But I think my music preferences help; I listen to all types of music, all the time. It gives me new ideas. If you just listen to one genre all the time, it can only go so far. Producing is oversaturated — everyone's making beats, everyone's making music — so I try to keep it unique."

The Sony PS4 will be just $300 in Black Friday 2015 sales, the lowest price ever.
I bet that the Sony PS4 Black Friday Bundle will sell out quicker than the Xbox One Gears of War Black Friday bundle. The Sony PS4 console is just more popular with gamers and at $299.99 priced lower than ever. The Xbox One has outsold the PS4 last month, driven by the Halo 5 launch. November will likely see the PS4 again on top, despite the big efforts Microsoft is undertaking to promote the Xbox One.
The fight for marketshare between Microsoft and Sony has brought us here to the $299.99 price point for the Sony PS4 and the Xbox One console.
The $299.99 Sony PS4 Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection will be on offer by all major Black Friday stores including Walmart, Amazon, Best Buy, Target, GameStop and many others.
Not all stores are offering the Sony PS4 Black Friday deal online. Kohl's for instance will only sell the Sony PS4 at the Black Friday price in stores. At this point we only know for sure that Amazon will offer the $299.99 Sony PS4 Uncharted bundle online. For all other stores you need to wait and see once the online Black Friday events launch on Thanksgiving Day.
Sony has confirmed that the Sony PS4 Black Friday deal will be available starting Thanksgiving Day and will be offered until including Cyber Monday.
While all stores offer the Sony PS4 for $299.99, you can save more when buying at stores that provide more incentives.
Kohl's will offer $75 in Kohl's Cash with the Sony PS4 Black Friday deal. Meijer is bundling a $50 shopping coupon with the PS4 Black Friday deal.
Even without these extra incentives the Sony PS4 is a hot deal, one of the most popular of Black Friday 2015. I recommend to try to grab the Sony PS4 Black Friday deal in online sales Thanksgiving early morning. We keep track on when the first stores will offer the PS4 at the $300 price. We already spotted the $299.99 Sony PS4 deal on eBay last week.
If you fail scoring the PS4 deal online, or if you want take your chances in getting a better deal in stores with cash back incentives, head out to the stores. You always can cancel an online order or send it back.
Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection PS4 Bundle includes a 500GB PS4 console and the single-player campaigns for Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, and Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception. The upcoming Uncharted 4: A Thief's End, to be released on March 18, 2016 is not part of this bundle.

The amazing assemblages with found objects. One could do them all the time. They are so special and unique!
For this project children brought their own items because that way they really conect to their piece. They are involved from the begining. First finding items, then finding them interesting enough to use them, keeping them, thinking about them, bringing them along, this all gives so much to a process already. It's much more exciting then finding a box full of items 10 minutes before we start working, picking few things out.
Apart from that they all got a shoe box and it was all as simple as making a colourful frame out of paper for the box and then using glue to assemble the items the way etch child felt like. I was there more or less to glue some of the objects with hot glue.A lovely project!

The rules of the real estate market in Paris are different than you might expect. Our tips will help you brush up on the buying process and begin your foray into the market with confidence.
Purchasing property in France is relatively straightforward for locals and foreigners alike. Napoleonic code defined the process centuries ago, and with a good Notaire your interests and investment will be secured.
The Notaire is not the same as a notary public in the U.S. The Notaire has a highly respected position in France as the public official who prepares the title deeds relating to the sale and purchase of land. They must carry out the following and attest on public record that the deed has been signed in his or her presence and understood by the parties involved.
The Notaire must carry out the following before he is ready to propose a date for the final purchase:
Legal representations on both sides are important as this example shows. One of our clients purchased a beautiful apartment in Paris that had been declared "empty" by the sellers and by their Notaire. Unbeknownst to their Notaire, the sellers had a sitting tenant in the maid's room that belonged to the apartment and had been negotiating with the tenant for months to find a replacement apartment. This means the apartment could not be declared "empty." We discovered this on the eve of purchase and notified our buyer's Notaire. This caused a serious problem for the sellers since they had misrepresented the fact that there was a sitting tenant with legal rights to stay there. Their Notaire was furious and explained to the sellers that the buyer could walk away from the sale with no consequences if they chose to do so. The sale was delayed until the tenant moved out shortly afterwards. Without that confirmation, we would have told the buyer to cancel the sale because it is very difficult to remove sitting tenants in France. Because of the misstatement, the buyers would have been able to walk away with a full refund of their deposit.
The same Notaire can represent both the buyer and seller but we recommend the buyer use their own Notaire to be sure their own interests are fully represented. There is no extra cost to choosing your own Notaire as the fee is the same and will be split between both. Our recommended Notaire has represented ourselves and owners for decades. He is smart, efficient and looks after our buyers' interests to the smallest detail. We are happy to put interested buyers in touch with him.
There are several types of purchase contracts, and the most common are the Compromis de Vente and the Promesse de Vente. It is important to know that once a contract is signed, there is a seven-day grace period in which buyers can change their minds and have the initial deposit returned in full. However, after that seven-day grace period, the buyers will lose their deposit if they walk away, subject to the "Special Conditions" clause of the contract.
Offre d'Achat: Sometimes an estate agent will ask you to sign an Offer d'Achat, a formal written offer. Be careful about signing this. We recommend you only do so in the presence of your own Notaire or lawyer. If the other party accepts your offer, then a legal contract is developed, subject to any conditions that may be in the offer. It is forbidden for a seller or agent to ask for a deposit at the time an "Offer to Buy" is made. If they ask you to pay a deposit, walk away.
Compromis de Vente: A bilateral agreement where both the buyer and seller are bound to the sale. The owner agrees to sell to the purchaser and the purchaser, in turn, agrees to buy from the owner, subject to any conditions (Conditions Suspensives) that may be stipulated in the contract.
Promesse de Vente: A unilateral contract by the seller, similar to an "Option to Buy." Under a Promesse de Vente, the seller is obliged to sell the property to the buyer at the agreed price, within a specified duration (which can be several months or longer). Prior to 2015, a Promesse de Vente could be signed and accepted immediately by the seller. The buyer had 7 days to back out without repercussion. Then the process of obtaining the important documents would begin – taking up to three months on average before the sale was finalized.
New Ruling for Promesse de Vente: As of 2015, all the official documents pertaining to a property and the owner's right to sell it - including the inspections of the property - must be provided before the Promesse de Vente is signed. The most important documents include: the '"loi carrez" (official size measurment) to inspections for termites, asbestos, lead paint, energy efficiency to annual building meeting notes - must be obtained before the Promesse de Vente or the Compromis de Vente are signed.
Because the seller must now provide all major documents before the signing of the Promesse de Vente and Compromis de Vente, the signing of the documents takes much longer -- 2 to 7 weeks or more, rather than immediately.
This has good and bad news for the seller and buyer. For the seller, the bad news is that they may gather all the paperwork over a period of weeks/months only to find the buyer has walked away. Since the buyer had not signed the Promesse de Vente, he or she are under no obligation to continue. The good news for the buyer is that they have more time to obtain financing and reflect. But the bad news is if the property is really fabulous, the seller will select the buyer who has no conditions to their purchase such as a mortgage. If they really want the property, this obligates the buyer to the purchase without knowing whether they can obtain a mortgage.
A recent example: We found a 3 bedroom apartment for buyers from San Francisco who we booked to view the apartment half an hour before official viewings started. They fell in love with it and we wrote an offer on the spot at full asking price. The agent knew there were two other serious buyers and insisted our buyers write they did not need a mortgage to finance the purchase. The seller accepted their offer in writing which guaranteed their purchase.
Later the same day, two other offers came in, both without "special conditions" such as mortgage approval -- and both at or above the asking price. If the seller had not officially accepted our buyers' offer in writing and because there was no signing of a Promesse to bind the seller – our buyers could have lost the apartment.
Special Conditions: Your Notaire may add several suspensive conditions in the offer and Promesse – special conditions that would invalidate the contract if they are not met. The most important release clause allows buyers to withdraw from the contract with the return of their deposit if they cannot obtain a mortgage or if the mortgage has worse terms than those specified. This is important because if you haven't written in a financing clause and don't receive your loan, you will lose your deposit if you have to back out. Be sure your Notaire is advising you well in these matters.
Grace Period: As mentioned above, once the Promesse or Compromis are signed, there is a seven-day grace period in which the buyer can withdraw from the purchase. Note, the seven-day period of retraction does not start until the day after the letter of confirmation has been received. If you back out, you must send a written notice (by registered mail) of your cancellation, within the seven days. If the letter is mailed before seven days, regardless of when it is received, it is valid. The seller is required to return the deposit within twenty-one days.
Some people think this is a "get out of jail free" card, a way to block an apartment and have the time to reflect more carefully. This is a tricky issue and you should use this option carefully because once you've walked away, the seller and agent will not want to deal with you again. In Paris neighborhoods, the name of an unscrupulous client is quickly shared among all agencies. An acquaintance we know put in an offer on an apartment that was accepted by the seller. The buyer reconsidered and withdrew from the purchase within seven days, sent written notice and walked away. A month later, they realized it had been a good deal and approached the agent again; he refused to even contact the seller, letting them know that the buyer was so angry at the previous experience that he would never sell to them, even if it was the only offer made. In short, do not make your decision lightly.
The format will vary slightly but all Compromis de Ventes will include the following:
After the Promesse or Compromis de Vente is signed, expect it to take up to three months for completion of the sale. The process of obtaining all the documentation and a bank loan are very time-consuming in France.
You can own your apartment in a number of ways, and there are tax advantages to consider. Be sure to get advice from a French tax lawyer before you decide because the cost of passing a property on to someone else can be very high.
Our recommended tax lawyer understands the tax codes in France and the US. He can advise on the most efficient tax structure for purchase, set up SCI's and advise on inheritance rules; he can also recommend bilingual accounts in Paris.
Options include purchasing the property:
When the buyer's Notaire has completed the title searches and is comfortable that the apartment is an unencumbered asset, is the size stated, belongs to the sellers, then a date will be set to complete the Acte de Vente (Closing). This is the definitive act which transfers the title of the property to you. It will be registered at the Bureau de Conservation des Hypothques and a copy of the Acte will also be kept at the Notaire's office. If you can't be present, you may assign a Procuration (Power of Attorney) to someone else to act on your behalf. This can be a search agent, your Notaire, your lawyer or any person of your choosing.
Payments and Closing Costs
You should never make deposits or final payments directly to the seller; they must go through your Notaire. This is part of the function of your Notaire, who will deposit the funds in an official bank account until required.
On closing, you'll pay the remaining amount due, generally between 90% and 95% of the cost of the apartment.
Transaction Costs
You are responsible for your own legal costs and expenses; transfer of property costs; and, if an agent is involved, the agent's commission. This is stated in the purchase price and these costs amount to approximately 7.5% of the value of the apartment. If you're taking out a mortgage, the arrangement fee is about 1%.
The legal costs include the following and are the same for every buyer, whether French or foreign.
Standard Expenses:
Taxes will differ if you are a resident versus a non-resident. If you spend less than 184 days a year in France, you are usually classified as a "non-resident."
For recurring bills, we recommend you set up a direct debit from your French bank account. These may include:

Training Classes
Why train with us?
Puppy School Courses
Puppy School is a set of six puppy training classes lasting one hour. The comprehensive programme has been carefully designed to take you through all the obedience basics giving you a good foundation for life with your new puppy or for any dog training sport you choose to do later. Puppies need to begin classes between 12 – 20 weeks old so that they are all at a similar stage of development.
The puppy training exercises gradually progress from easy to more complex, building on your puppy's understanding and reliability each week.
You will learn how to teach your puppy to:
- Come when called
- Sit, lie down, stand on command
- Walk on a loose lead without pulling
- Get used to being handled and examined for vets and groomers
- 'Stay'
- 'Settle'
- 'Gentle' (taking food from hands gently)
- Accept people near to food bowls, bones and chew
- Stop play biting
- Socialise with an adults, children, and other puppies attending class
- Greet people appropriately without jumping up
Only reward-based puppy training methods are used at Puppy School. Treats, toys and praise are used to encourage puppies to be well behaved. No bullying or rough handling is tolerated.
Puppies will be allowed to play in carefully controlled small groups to ensure they learn good manners around other puppies, do not get scared, and do not learn to play roughly or aggressively. Puppies will be matched for size, age, and experience, and play will be carefully supervised to ensure that all puppies learn to be confident with others.
All our Puppy School clients will receive a free Puppy School manual (sponsored by www.naturesmenu.co.uk) as an accompaniment to our classes.
Our Puppy School Manual will allow you to read back through class sessions and to practice training at home.
Although all the information you will need to train your puppy will be given to you in class, you will need to set aside time every day to practise the exercises at home to make the most of the ideas you have been given. Training at home will allow you to progress further in class and will result in a better trained puppy at the end of the six weeks.
To help with this, our Puppy School Manual includes detailed and helpful information on what your tutor taught during each week of the course. Instructions are broken down in nice, easy, readable little exercises allowing all the family to get involved with the weekly training.
Our Puppy School Manual also includes informative information about what to expect at classes, what to bring with you each week, how to help your puppy to prepare for the car journey, details on the importance of playing and bonding with your puppy as well as information about Natures Menu, who have been creating 100% real, natural, wholesome food for pets for over thirty-five years.
For the dates of our next courses please contact us.
APDT Good Companion Award Courses
The APDT, Good Companion Awards are designed to help general dog owners and is for dogs over 20 weeks of age. They have been designed to help motivate trainers and trainees to continue to enjoy exercises in life skills.
There are four levels of the awards- Stages 1,2,3 and 4.
- positions,
- stay,
- loose lead walking,
- recall,
- control amongst other dogs,
- leave
- door manners
As a part of the course we give all our owners a training diary along with a packet of training treats and a chew on week one, then following your assessment on week 6 of the course you will receive a certificate, rosette and goody bag filled with all things dogs like.
After the stage one course is completed you are welcome to continue training with us in one of our rolling start classes. You can work your way up to APDT Stage 4 Jubilee Exercises where we work on more difficult behaviours such as off lead walking, sending the dog to targets such as their beds, emergency stops and recalls from distractions. Each level aims to offer a natural progression to maintain interest and enthusiasm for both dog and handler.
For the dates of our next courses please contact us.
One to One Training and Behavioural Sessions
General One to One Training
General training one to one lessons are great if you are unable to attend classes due to work shifts or commitments, or just want more one on one time to focus on a particular issue.
These lessons can currently be held at the owner's home or at our Mold venue, and we can cover exercises such as:
- lead walking
- recall
- focus
- teaching general good manners
- toilet training
- mouthing
We understand that every dog is different and that people experience different problems so during your lesson you can ask Sam anything about dog ownership.
Lessons are an hour long, contact us for our availability.
Behavioural Session
Behavioural sessions are for specific behaviour problems e.g. separation anxiety, excessive barking, reactivity, or aggression.
During your session we will devise a specific behaviour modification programme for you and your dog and if needed we will work with your veterinary practice to help your dog overcome their problems. We will also devise a personalised training plan to help you while you are training.
We understand that every dog is different and that people experience different problems so during your lesson you can ask Sam anything about dog ownership.
The initial session will last for up to two hours and can be held in your home, at our Mold venue.

One could argue that gay marriage could provide an boost to the new economy as more marriages are planned, catered, locations rented, gifts purchased, new households created, new furniture purchased, etc. Of course the divorce rate would probably increase also, so that would mean new households are created, new furniture is purchased, etc, etc etc.
But let me ask this, why bother? The divorce rate in the States is rather high, and with gay marriage, that would undoubtly increase some, so why go through all that?
Buuuuuuut when I consider my personal opinion, so I suppose someone else should get married.

As a student in this program, you've taken the first step towards developing the skills you need to become a successful administrative assistant, and this blog is designed to provide you with helpful information as you get started in your new career. We will spotlight some great industries you can work in as well as interview people already working in the field.
In this first post, let's look at a few stats on the growth expected in the number of administrative assistant jobs. These statistics are all provided by the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics, which you can find at www.bls.gov.
The Department of Labor reports:
- Secretaries and administrative assistants held about 4.3 million jobs in 2008—making it one of the largest occupations in the country.
- The largest areas of employment within this occupation are general secretaries, executive secretaries, and administrative assistants (other, smaller classifications within this occupation include medical secretaries and legal secretaries).
- The number of administrative assistant jobs is expected to grow by 11% by 2018, which equals to more than 471,000 new jobs in the United States alone.

SusChem Publishes Polymer Composites Brochure
Please contemplate upgrading to the latest version of your browser by clicking 1 of the following links. Actually beneficial write-up – thanks for giving me a couple of excellent ideas prior to I tackle the significant repair (several rips, foam exposed) on the driver's seat of the 20 year old Toyota Hilux 4×4 we just purchased, which is otherwise in superb situation.
Automotive engineers can take measurements from devices below test making use of the modular, versatile and potent instruments of the NI PXI platform. The master technician has to get in touch with the manufacturer for permission and to get a particular override code. Paint the RV Cabinets- Paint is cheap and the correct colors can make the space look bigger. There are over 300 moving parts in numerous transmissions and any one of these could be the result in of your difficulty. If your design is not symmetrical, you'll need to paint more than a mirror image of your drawing so that the impression of the design and style in the clay faces the right way.
Given that the automotive sector is knowledge-intensive, that implies that many workers have a higher education or university background. The BACTRACK Breathalyzer uses sophisticated BluFire Technology in order to give you a fast, simple and accurate way to test your blood alcohol content material (BAC). Whilst many older individuals at the time have been able to use new cars, it was the children who were in a position to totally adapt each aspect of their lives to all changes brought by automotive progress.
Emerson is where technologies and engineering come collectively to create options for the benefit of our customers, driven without compromise for a globe in action. Trace over your design and style with dimensional fabric paint or 3D craft paint from the craft or sewing retailer and remedy it without having heat according to the manufacturer's directions. Maintain your hours per C/P Repair Order (RO) at a minimum of two.5" says Don Reed, CEO of DealerPro Coaching Options. I was a little worried because I know there are a lot of aftermarket parts out there, and I would not be able to inform the distinction if I had been sent the wrong factor. Whether to own your self, or give as a present to someone you adore, automotive fine art exhibits your refined taste and appreciation for specialty automobiles and the fine artists that painted them.

Helping you identify pupils with dyscalculic tendencies.
The Dyscalculia Screener is an assessment that identifies dyscalculic tendencies in pupils aged 5–16+ years and recommends intervention strategies to help them achieve their potential.
The 30 minute test is an ideal tool for screening an entire year group, or for screening those pupils showing some signs of difficulty. It can play an important part in helping both specialist and non-specialist teachers distinguish between those individuals who have poor maths attainment and those whose difficulties are associated with dyscalculia. The screener provides a true measure of a pupil's facility with numbers through evaluating their ability to understand number size, simple addition and simple multiplication.
The assessment comprises six tests covering three areas, with two assessments for each: Ability, Attainment and Diagnostic.
Results and Reporting
The Dyscalculia Screener has been standardised, so you can be assured that results presented are accurate and reliable. Results are easy to interpret and information on a pupil's strengths and weaknesses are detailed across each test. Standard Age Scores are provided and you will benefit from recommendations made as to the next steps in either further assessment or intervention..
- A Diagnostic Group Report; a convenient way of assimilating and storing results for a group of readers.
- A Parent/Carer Report plus further guidance and letter templates will help support your communication with parents and carers both before and after screening.

Credit Approvals Down at Swapalease.com but Still Doing Very Well
Swapalease.com saw a slight drop off in year-to-date credit approval trends for August compared with July – 74.5%, down slightly from 75.6% in July. Credit is an important part of the car lease process, and each customer looking to take over a lease on Swapalease.com must have equal or better credit standing compared with the existing lessee. "The August data continue to show a strong lease approvals market," said Scot Hall, Executive Vice President for Swapalease.com. "We believe the customer credit approvals rate will remain at or near current levels through the remainder of 2013."

Jim Ingram's Amerindo Self-Defense System
Our Philosophy
Origins of Our Silat System
Jim Ingram's system of self-defense is largely based on the Indonesian martial art of penjak silat.
Penjak Silat, or silat for short, is a martial art that is actually indigenous not just to Indonesia, but
also to Malaysia, and the Southern Philippines. In Indonesia it is called Pentjak or Pencak Silat. In
Malaysia it is known as Bersilat. In the Southern Philippines it is called Kali-Silat. Variations of the
art are found throughout Southeast Asia.
The word Silat originated from the Indonesian word
, which means lightning. A practitioner's
goal is to reach a skill level where one strikes his opponent with lightning speed. Our teacher
often says, "A strike should be felt, not seen."
Our Philosophy
Like most martial arts, silat training helps develop discipline, and helps build strength and
character. Like other martial arts, it has strengths and weaknesses. We do
claim to have an
answer for all situations that one might encounter. It is not by any means, the "ultimate", the
"deadliest", and "the best $39.95 martial arts instruction you can buy on tape".
Our emphasis is on the effective development of martial skills for survival. Silat, as we practice it,
is about self-preservation. We are not concerned with looking impressive. We are, however,
obsessive about effectiveness. The practitioner strives to be flexible and adaptable to any
situation, but most of all, the goal is to survive a life-threatening confrontation.
Origins of Our Silat System
Silat has been around long before Columbus and Magellan "discovered" the New World. Silat's
history can be traced back to the pre-Christian era when land bridges still existed in Southeast
Asia. The art has survived primarily because it works. Pentjak Silat lives on because it is like an
heirloom, passed on from father to son and on through succeeding generations. It is an eclectic
martial art influenced by the Chinese, East Indian, and the Malays.
For additional information on the history of Pentjak Silat, click
Other terms used to refer to Pentjak Silat include "
" in Indonesian and "
" in Dutch.
Mustika Kweetang
is one of the Silat systems taught in the
Amerindo Self-Defense System
. It
is a combination of two systems, one coming from an Indonesian Muslim Priest named Mustika
(Pentjak Silat), and the other coming from a Chinese trader named Kweetang Kiam (Kuntao). This
combined system was passed on to Oom Jim from William Loreo.
Another style incorporated into the system is called
Pukulan Japara
, from Oom Jim Ingram's
father, a former Chief of Police in Indonesia. This system is characterized by a progressive, direct
method of attack. It has been tried and tested in the streets of Jakarta, in the back alleys of
Singapore, and with Oom Jim's own experience as a Dutch commando in the Korean War. The
Amerindo System, as with other Silat systems, makes use of close quarter combat in stand up
fighting or on the ground (Harimau). It incorporates strikes, throws, locks, and finishing moves.
Current curriculum includes:
Mustika Kweetang
Pukulan Japara
Pukulan Serak (Maurice de Thouars and Dolf DeVries)
Tjimatchan / Harimau
Setia Hati or Es Ha
We crawl before we walk and we walk before we run; and so it is with learning Silat.
A student starts out learning footwork. Shortly thereafter, the student learns what to do with their
arms and their hands. We then combine the two elements to make them work together. At higher
skill levels, the student is taught how to flow from one technique to another depending on the
energy one receives from the opponent. People vary as to height, speed, stamina, and strength.
Consequently, we teach timing, zoning, and economy of motion to compensate for these
Our practice of Silat focuses on
Bela Diri
. Bela Diri refers to the self-defense aspects of Silat.
Pentjak Silat basics start with
. These form the foundation of the system.
Djurus refer to the upper art, which involves all movement from your torso to your head. Langkas
refer to the lower art or more simply "footwork", which consist of geometric patterns on the ground
that help you maintain your balance as you perform your djurus. Djurus combined with langkas
result in
or fruit/flower. Literally, all the practice and hardwork bear fruit resulting in
"applications". The "applications" are what you use for fighting and self-defense.
We also practice
extensively. Sambuts are techniques for countering an attack.
Emphasis is placed on finesse rather than power. If you are using power or brute force, you are
not practicing Silat. Silat is made functional by having knowledge of human anatomy, physics,
physiology, and psychology. Over time, the practitioner acquires skills on closing the distance
between himself and the opponent, the application of timing concepts, the use of body torque,
avoiding strikes by parrying and zoning, and efficient delivery of counterstrikes.
Very often, even for the most advanced student, we go back and review the basics. The basic
techniques are executed in the same manner, regardless of age or level of expertise. The only
difference lies in the advanced student's greater appreciation of the possibilities and the potential
that lies within the basic techniques and the djurus.

Uterus Question-pg116944510716
After my c-section, will my uterus contract just like a normal va___al delivery would to shrink back down to size? If so, what does it feel like? Also, does it take longer for a c-sections moms milk to come in? Thanks for any input...I'm still learning! ;)
Yes, it contracts to shrink back t size. If you b___stfeed you will probably notice that you get crampy when baby sucks. To me it felt like period cramps. My milk came in after 3 days (he was born Sat., milk came in Tuesday) after my oldest was born and after 2 days with my next two (they were both born on Thursdays, milk came in Saturday). Whether the first one taking so long was c-section related or not I don't know... that was my only c-section with a long, indued labor, and consequently an epidural... so all of that stress, plus the c-section may have affected it... I don't know!
I think it varies with each woman. I didn't feel anything when my uterus went down in size. It took my milk almost a week to come in after my csection - it sucked because my dd lost over 1 lb in 3 days so I had to supplement feed her. After a week of that, I made her bf exclusively.
Yes your uterus will contract like a normal delivery. I didn't feel anything, but I think it differs from woman to woman. If you did feel something, I've been told it sort of feels like cramps you get with your period. It took my milk 4 days to come in, but we pumped at the hospital in order to help things out. We supplemented DS with some formula, he was a larger baby so the ped thought he'd need more than just colostrum, but I wouldn't let him have a bottle (didn't want to confuse the little one) so we fed him out of a little cup. He lapped it up like a cat LOL. But normally it takes 2 -3 days for milk, so 4 isn't that far off.
Thanks for the answers! I'm sure period cramps will be nothing compared to the surgery pain I will have...lol! I'm hoping that I won't have to supplement w/ formula, but am prepared to if he is small like expected. I just really hope that he has no latching problems! *Fingers crossed*
