      2013 Soccer

      2013 Premier League, Champions League, & World Cup Predictions

      Page 2 of 3

      One intriguing issue at Chelsea is how long the new manager will last. After all, Jose Mourinho is the club’s eighth manager since his own departure in September 2007. He says: “I come to give the club stability. Mr. [Roman] Abramovich is completely aware of the talent we have, and the stability they need in terms of soccer ideas.” Chelsea can’t be changing “our way of thinking every six months,” Mourinho argues.

      But changing his way of thinking every six months is exactly what Abramovich does. Gullit, who managed at Stamford Bridge himself from 1996 to 1998, says: “I expect Mourinho has a clause in his contract saying, ‘I won’t go without a very high buyout sum,’ to prevent that. And a clause saying he won’t accept interference from above. Because that’s why he left Chelsea last time — and because he didn’t play attacking soccer.”

      Real Madrid seem to have not just a new manager, in tubby Carlo Ancelotti, but also a new way of thinking. Since the 1950s, the club has been buying the best players on earth, seldom pushing through players from its own academy. That made sense during the decades when Spanish players just weren’t very good. But even after Spaniards became the world’s best, from about 2000, Madrid stuck with its old ways. In youth soccer, one Barcelona academy coach told me in 2009 that Madrid’s boys were as good as Barcelona’s — but Barcelona’s homegrown players then got a chance in the senior team, whereas Madrid’s didn’t.

      That may at last be changing. Gullit says: “It’s noticeable that Madrid is moving in one go from galacticos to youth players. They are thinking about the long term.” The club has bought the Spanish central midfielders Isco, a 21-year-old from Malaga, and Asier Illarramendi, 23, from Real Sociedad. Both featured in Spain’s youth team that won the European under-21 championship in Israel in June. Madrid also paid Bayer Leverkusen €6.5 million for the right-back Dani Carvajal, a 21-year-old Madrid boy who had come through the club’s own youth academy.

      This strategy of going young and local is promising. Real Madrid, the world’s richest club, has had a dismal five years under the galacticos-obsessed president Florentino Pérez: just one Spanish title, and only one run even as far as the semifinals in the Champions League. Oh, and not to mention that the team fell apart last year under Mourinho. Meanwhile, Barcelona has found harmony and trophies with a largely homegrown team — in which the only disappointing players have generally been the expensive signings. It’s probably smart to buy topnotch Spaniards rather than foreigners who may struggle to settle in. Madrid deserves kudos for breaking with 60 years of club tradition.

      British bookmakers have made Bayern Munich joint favorites with Barcelona to win the Champions League. No wonder, because Bayern have added to the world’s most efficient playing squad the world’s most revered manager, Pep Guardiola himself. Yet this might not be the perfect match. First of all, it’s almost impossible for Guardiola to equal Bayern’s treble of last season, especially with a squad that must be sated.

      Secondly, he’s a manager who likes to shape a team to his ideas. He comes with a carefully worked out philosophy of soccer, hinging on fast passing and highly disciplined movement, so he might not be willing to let well enough alone at Bayern. And Bayern is a club where the coach is treated as just a passerby. Continuity resides with the directors, the ex-Bayern players Franz Beckenbauer, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and Uli Hoeness. If Pep makes people unhappy at Bayern, it will be he who goes, and not his players.

      Gullit spent eight happy years playing in Italy for Milan and Sampdoria. I asked him if today’s Italian clubs had any hope of competing with the European elite. He sighed: “Italy’s biggest problem is the stadiums: old, out of date, no business clubs or anything like that. Juventus with the new stadium is sold out every week. It will never be like that with Milan. And I’m not even talking about Bari. What about Roma? Athletics track around the field! I think that if Italy manages to change that, they’ll recover. But the economy is weak — there’s no money.” I pointed out that when he moved from PSV Eindhoven to Milan in 1987, Italian clubs were still buying the world’s best players. He laughed: “I cost 14 million Dutch guilders [about $7 million then]. That’s a very big difference.”

      We moved on to the World Cup. Gullit thought Spain could stay on top of the world in Brazil next year, for the same reason he applauded Madrid for buying young Spaniards: “If you look at the national youth teams, Spain is still one of the top countries.”

Show season is well and truly upon us. By which I specifically mean financial services & technology conferences and events.

Here at Aspectus PR, our financial technology clients span Europe, the Americas and Canada, as well as Asia, which means that at this time of year, we are challenged with supporting activities at multiple shows taking place in multiple locations during any single week/month.

For us, this wealth of events is good news – providing a great opportunity to get our clients chatting to journalists face-to-face, and to build on the extensive range of PR materials we have worked with our clients to create over the longer term. These shows are a major focus, and that’s why we ensure that our clients are expertly represented on all fronts – with specialists available on the ground, backed by topical and cutting-edge content delivered via a sustained and targeted media campaign, and in respect of the issues leading the event agenda.

We’ve got a double perspective on this though, also working on the other side of the fence to help promote major energy events such as POWER-GEN Europe and Energy Solutions. We know that in this crowded and ultra competitive marketplace, differentiation is quite rightly high on the agenda for show organisers – both in terms of appealing to sponsors and delegates, as well as to members of the press. And in the current climate, an event’s reputation for good attendance, a genuinely stimulating and well-conceived programme and demonstrable ROI is crucial to its survival and will ensure sponsors and delegates return year after year. What’s key is communicating that to next year’s potential attendees.

Without that communication, it’ll be curtains…

Parramatta Park, Parramatta NSW 2150
Standing in 200 acres of parkland overlooking historic Parramatta, Old Government House is Australia's oldest public building. For seven decades, it was the 'country' residence of 12 early governors of the colony, including Governor and Mrs Macquarie who preferred the clean air and space of rural Parramatta to the unsanitary and crime ridden streets of Sydney Town. The central block of the house was built in 1799 by Governor John Hunter, however the house today owes most to Governor and Mrs Macquarie. Their 1815 extensions, designed by Macquarie's Aide, Lieutenant John Watts transformed the house into an elegant Palladian style residence. Old Government House and Domain (Parramatta Park) is one of 11 historic places that together form the Australian Convict Sites UNESCO World Heritage property. ...

Breast Augmentation / Breast Lift / Tummy Tuck / Liposuction: Flanks

Procedure Details

When this mother decided she didn't want anymore children, she chose to receive several plastic surgeries in order to give her a younger, more beautiful body. The surgeons at the Austin-Weston Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Reston VA, near Washington DC gave her the results she was looking for. First, they placed 300cc silicone gel implants taking her from an A cup to a D cup. They used traditional liposuction to remove excess fat from her abdomen and flanks. She also received a tummy tuck surgery to give her a flat stomach and remove excess skin. Her new, more slender shape and beautiful proportions have given her back her pre-pregnancy body. But more importantly, her new body has given her back her confidence. Incredible results!

More Than 77 Million People Enrolled in US Schools on School Enrollemnt and Industrial Trades ShortageThe number of people enrolled in U.S. schools increased to 77.2 million in 2016, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Since 1996, total school enrollment has grown 9.9%. Virtually all the increase came from college enrollments.

 The number enrolled in high school remained steady between 2011 and 2016 – good on the face of it, but a problem for the skilled trades – including automotive, since many high schools have dropped vocational training, emphasizing health care or college prep instead of industrial vocations. As a result, manufacturing companies are instituting German-style apprenticeship programs. (Mercedes-Benz Starts Apprenticeship Program with U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs

Full-time college enrollment (undergraduate and graduate) increased over the same time for men, women and all race groups. Full-time college enrollment in 2016 was 75.1% of all college enrollment, up from 70.0% in 2006 and 66.3% in 2000.

Enrollment in kindergarten through eighth grade has not significantly changed during the past decade, increasing from 36.1 million in 2006 to 36.6 million a decade later. This is the beginning of a problem Japan has had for decades – an aging population with no younger workers in the pipeline placing great financial stress on social, medical and retirement programs. These 2016 figures show that non-Hispanic whites made up nearly 51% of all students in kindergarten through eighth grade, while Hispanic or Latino students made up 25.1%. Black students were 15.1% of the total; Asian students were 5.4%

Hispanic Enrollment

The number of Hispanic students at all levels of school has grown by 4.8 million in the past decade (2006 to 2016), and by 9.0 million since 1996. This represents a doubling of the Hispanic student population in the last 20 years, a 102% increase.

“We’ve seen the number of Hispanic students enrolled in schools, colleges and universities in the United States double from 8.8 million to 17.9 million from 1996 to 2016,” said Kurt Bauman, Chief, Education and Social Stratification Branch. “Hispanic students now make up 22.7% of all people enrolled in school.”

The growth of Hispanic enrollment has been accompanied by a decline in high school dropout rates. In 1996, 34.5% of Hispanics ages 18 to 24 had not completed and were not enrolled in high school. By 2006 that rate had dropped to 26.2%, and in 2016 it was 9.9%, only 4 points higher than the national average of 6.4%.

  • School enrollment of Hispanic students at all levels grew 36.3% in the 10 years from 2006 to 2016.
  • Hispanic college enrollment (undergraduate and graduate) grew 86.0% from 2006 to 2016.
  • Hispanic students make up 19.1% of all college students, up from 11.4% in 2006.
  • In 2016 Hispanics represented 22.7% of all students enrolled at all levels in 2016 and 19.1% of those enrolled in college.

Private Enrollment Down

 Enrollment in private schools has declined by half a million over the past decade. Nursery school enrollment fell from 2.2 to 1.9 million, kindergarten enrollment declined by 123,000, elementary school enrollment dropped from 3.1 to 2.6 million, and high school enrollment dropped from 1.5 to 1.3 million. In contrast, private college enrollment grew from 3.8 to 4.2 million.

School Enrollment Tables

The updated tables provide information by age, sex, race, Hispanic origin, family income, type of college, employment status, nativity, foreign-born parentage, attendance status (full or part time), type of school (public or private), and vocational course enrollment. They also delve into topics such as nursery school and kindergarten enrollment, the likelihood of enrollment in a grade appropriate for their age, and the percentage of young adults enrolled in college. Historical time series tables and visualizations are also provided.

School enrollment data are obtained from the Current Population Survey (CPS). The Current Population Survey is the primary source of labor force statistics for the population of the United States and is used to collect data for a variety of other studies that keep the nation informed of the economic and social well-being of its people. Whether politicians, school districts or policy makers act on it is another matter entirely. Later this fall, the Census Bureau will release a post-secondary school enrollment report.

Test Drive: 2018 Hyundai Accent

At a glance, it looks like they shrunk down a Hyundai Sonata, and that’s just fine. The 2018 Hyundai Accent is a small car (compact, technically), but it’s also a real looker. It’s bold. Blocky. Edgy. Probably, nobody will say it looks “precious”. It looks like a big car, just smaller.

Be careful with your speed on the highway: here’s one of those cars that can easily sneak past the limit on the sly if you’re not using the cruise control.

At writing, the all-new-for-2018 Accent was the freshest, newest and most recently redone car on offer in its segment, and shoppers after the latest from the great big world of affordable cars should include it on their test drive hit-list.

For decades, small cars had the structural strength of a warmed and lightly buttered ciabatta bun. This is not the case with the new Accent.

A fun fact follows: Hyundai builds their own steel, in their own factories. Some of this steel is called Advanced High Strength Steel, or AHSS. This sounds fancy, but it just means “really, really strong steel”.

By building this super-steel themselves, Hyundai can use more of it, on the cheap, in the construction of cars like the new Accent. There are benefits, relating to the fact that AHSS is strong and light. One of these is that, by building key parts of the car’s skeleton from it, you wind up with a car that’s stronger and more rigid, but without becoming obese and heavy like a prenatal rhinoceros who enjoys routine poutines. Actually, the latest Accent is loads stronger and more rigid than its predecessor, and bigger, but only about 10 kg heavier.

You can’t see the Accent’s AHSS, though you can feel some of the benefits on a test drive. Most of these relate to refinement, ride quality, and noise levels. (For a quick demonstration of how AHSS works, be sure to watch the introduction of our video review.)

Accent’s mega-stiff structure enables a quieter ride, since the stiffened-up body resists deflecting over bumps which can pump air throughout the cabin and create a dull, drumming noise. It’s not Cadillac quiet, but head down a rough road, and it’s decently muted, with no rattles, and no sensation of flimsiness. Even at a good clip, it’s hush enough for front-seat pals to chat without voice raising.

On most roads, noise levels are kept nicely within limits. On the same rough roads that make some affordable cars feel like delicate rattle-traps, Accent feels hearty and sturdy, and ride quality remains fairly consistent. That’s because of another AHSS benefit: the stiffened structure allows engineers to more precisely tune the suspension that it rides on. So, for noise levels, and often ride quality, Accent typically feels like a bigger and heavier car.

There is one catch: the tester’s thin and sporty (winter) tires resulted in increased noise and jaggedness on severely neglected roadways. On perfect to moderately rough roads, ride quality and comfort are nicely dialled in towards a semi sporty-taut feel that’s more athletic than floaty. On the really rough stuff, though, there’s a good bump in noise and harshness, even though the overall feel of durability remains.

Drivers who appreciate a sportier and more athletic feel will find the ride quality to be just fine, but head to the roughest road available on your test drive to confirm where the ride quality of the Accent you’re considering lands within your preferred ride-quality spectrum.

Few will find issue with on-board space or functionality. The Accent feels bigger than it looks, each seat is easily accessed, headroom is generous, and the rear floor is free of a central hump which munches into passenger foot space. Four average sized adults should fit satisfactorily, and rear-seat legroom is more than suitable, though headroom evaporates quickly for the tall.

Heated seats are included in both front and rear. This is swell, because heated rear seats make your carpool friends like you more, so they’ll pay for your coffee at the drive-thru.

The driver perches behind a simple and tidy instrument cluster with a clean central driver computer display. There’s a proper armrest, which is great if you have arms, which is a thing that is likely. Numerous cubbies, bins, and compartments, as well as power points for juicing gadgets, are within easy reach.

The trunk is deep and wide and easy to access, so tackling a weekend road-trip for four and their gear should prove no problem.

Power comes from a 1.6L four-cylinder engine with a strong-for-its-size 132 hp. This year, some tweaks expand the range at which the bulk of the engine’s torque is available. From the driver’s seat, this means more responsiveness at lower speeds, and stronger, quieter responsiveness more of the time during gentle driving.

Punch it, and Accent is relatively peppy. Most shoppers will find performance to be adequate or better. Be careful with your speed on the highway: here’s one of those cars that can easily sneak past the limit on the sly if you’re not using the cruise control. The Accent has enough grunt, even if the sound doesn’t back it up: pushed hard, the engine sounds like it’s working harder than my heart after downing a family-sized bacon cheeseburger poutine. Don’t judge me.

Most of the time, you don’t even realize the six-speed automatic transmission is doing anything, since shifts are velvet-smooth and typically occur at low revs, where the engine isn’t yet making much noise. That’s a good thing, since the transmission often toggles heartily between fifth and sixth gear on the highway. Sixth gear keeps cruising revs down in the interest of your fuel bill but is only available when the Accent is under very light load. As such, even a slight hill or headwind triggers a downshift. There’s a lot of shifting going on while you cruise, but if you’re not watching the tachometer, you’d hardly ever know.

Brakes perform well in emergency stops. When engaged, the ABS system is a little noisy but smooth, and pulls the Accent down from speed quickly and with little drama or squirming. The action at the pedal is more precise than the norm in this segment – often a feeling like the braking system is made of wet shoelaces and cheese-whiz. Seems like engineers worked the brake pedal out to inspire confidence when a fast stop is required, and even on snow and ice, Accent pulls down from speed with appreciable urgency, in a straight line, and without making a scene.

Note that the tester was wearing quality winter tires. Without these, you’re about 734 percent more likely to skid into a bus or ditch during an emergency stop instead.

There’s a similarly fine-tuned feel to the handling. Should drivers find occasion to push the Accent a little on some winding roads, it performs eagerly within a wide comfort zone. Again, and like the brakes, it’s a touch more responsive and fine-tuned than average. Drivers who appreciate tidy handling and an alert and eager feel will appreciate the setup.

At low speeds, a feather-light steering feel and relatively small turning circle make Accent a cinch to manoeuvre around parking spaces and to zip through traffic in crowded areas. At highway speeds, your writer wished the steering was a touch heavier to help lock the car more firmly into place within its lane, and to reduce the need to issue corrections to its position. Engaging the “sport” drive mode recalibrates the steering (among other things), which seems to help.

A few other notes. The tested GLS-grade Accent flaunted some must-have upscale feature content. Favourites included (very powerful, like seriously) heated seats, a heated steering wheel finished in the sort of creamy-smooth leather that wouldn’t feel out of place in a twice-the-price ride, and Android Auto functionality, which effectively upscales key smartphone interfaces (including the “talk to Google” Android Assistant voice command system, and Google Maps), into the main screen. Elsewhere, the central command interface is straightforward, responsive, and highly logical to use.

Currently available on autoTRADER.ca

The Accent also heats up appreciably fast when it’s very cold outside, and I can confirm that it starts like a champ without being plugged in overnight, even at 25 below.

Further, headlight performance is good – at or above average as small cars go – which addresses one of my biggest complaints of the last-generation Accent.

Gripes? Some will wish for a more upscale materials palette and a splash more colour in the Accent’s cabin. Much of this cabin is shaped nicely, but the colours are drab. Further, the trunk lacks an inner grab handle, so closing it in winter months will require touching gross salt.

End of the day, and once again, here’s a top test drive candidate for a small car that thinks big when it comes to space, a feeling of durability and density on real-world roads, and especially, styling and feature content bang for the buck.

At writing, pricing was yet to be announced, but should be in close to the outgoing 2017 unit. We will update this article when full pricing becomes available.

New Wesite Design

Hi all, this post is to give you some hints about new web design.

As some of you may know, the past few months I have been working on this new design and I had to stop creating new mesh templates  for a while.

With this update, I tried to make the site more colorful and functional. The content is organized as clearly, looking to the future, incorporating new technology for the web.

The first thing you can jump out is the change of logo. I decided to change it because this seems more dynamic, shorter, is easy to remember and try to recover the original spirit of the brand, only 3 letters, as an acronym for “Advanced Virtual Interactions”.

Not much trouble for you, I guess, because it keeps the same colors and I think it is easy to recognize, this is more than anything a personal touch, to accompany the new design

Now let me highlight some of the features that may interest you more:

3d Viewer

No doubt, for me, the most special feature of this new design is the possibility to preview the real-time models, and in 3 dimensions, with the possibility to rotate, zoom and pan over to examine it thoroughly .

Not only that, also in this 3d viewer, I have incorporated the option to preview the model: textured, textured with Ambien  occlusion (AO) only  and is also the possibility to show their faces and how it distorts the texture on the model, quickly.

This tool is made possible by the WebGL technology.(most web browsers have it enabled by default)

Below you can see an example of the preview for the parallel models in this viewer:

Sculptie Tank

Another unique feature of this new design, thanks to HTML5 is the new section “sculptie Tank” where you see most of the sculpties that I made over the years, can be fun!

Easy Contact

Apart from this exciting new technology, I’ve also implemented some features to interact with you in a way easier. I put a button, visible on every page, so, if you wish, to send a feedback with any questions or suggestions that you have. Also available is a contact form where you can indicate if you want more details ;)

 Some people asked me if there was any fomra of follow updates of my creations, well, until now did not have a good system. With this subscription system, you can choose what content to receive, if you want to adult, if you do not want to adult, if you only want to receive updates from the templates etc. .. I hope you find it useful!

Also you can still follow us on twitter ;)

So now, finally! the website is functional and I can start creating new templates and content for Second Life! (abstinence syndrome;))

I hope you like the new design!

Peak China

Photo: Smith Collection/Gado/Getty

China is beset by a trade war, pushback against its global infrastructure plans and allegations of industrial spying. Growth in factory production appears to be at its weakest in 24 years.

Parag Khanna, a Singapore-based global strategist, says that all of this may signal that, after years of forecasts of a Chinese juggernaut, we may have reached what he calls "peak China."

  • The 5G race: The highest-profile current global technological rivalry is in 5G, the coming step change in communications and connectivity. Huawei, the Chinese giant, is ahead both technologically and logistically. But the U.S. is pushing allies hard to block Huawei's system.
  • The U.S. is also pushing against Chinese espionage: In reports and presentations around the world, NSA and military officials are warning of a grave long-term threat by Chinese hacking.
  • Abroad, too, counter-balancing is going on: The EU, Japan and India have all launched cross-regional infrastructure initiatives meant to counter China's massive Belt and Road infrastructure system.

"China is experiencing in just three years of expansionism the kind of pushback it took 300 years to muster against some European empires," Khanna, author of "The Future is Asian," tells Axios.

  • China is fighting it: At a dinner in Washington, D.C., last night, hosted by Arizona State University, Slate and New America, Chen Futao, head of the science and technology section at the Chinese Embassy, argued against decoupling the U.S. and Chinese economies, a much-discussed idea in U.S. foreign policy circles.
  • Chen especially fought accusations that some Chinese students spy for Beijing and that Chinese companies steal technology for their products. "We believe our innovation is a result of our own research, not stealing," Chen said.

Go deeper: China’s formerly white-hot tech sector is in the doldrums

Azamara Journey to Observe Centennial Anniversary of Titanic Sinking

Azamara Journey to Observe Centennial Anniversary of Titanic Sinking

Scroll for More#

ASHEVILLE, NC and MIAMI, September 17, 2010 – Willtiger Corporation and Azamara Club Cruises are proud to announce Voyages! Titanic 2012, a once-in-a-lifetime experience aboard Azamara Journey commemorating the historic maiden trans-Atlantic voyage of the RMS Titanic. Departing April 9, 2012, from Boston on a nine-night roundtrip itinerary, the voyage will arrive at the location of the final resting place of Titanic on her 100th anniversary and remain for three days, where Azamara Journey will be the exclusive cruise ship to receive live video feeds from a remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) deployed from an expeditionary ship alongside. Throughout, guests will have opportunities to immerse themselves in the history and experience of Titanic. Bookings are now available via Voyages! Titanic 2012 reservation line at 1-800-294-5269.

“This exclusive charter, Voyages! Titanic 2012, will be a unique experience to commemorate the most infamous passenger ship in history on its centennial anniversary,” said Bill Willard, president of Willtiger Corporation. “We’ll be at the exact site at the exact time one-hundred years after the RMS Titanic met its demise to remember those lost and the ship. Throughout, we will offer guests a deeper understanding of what Titanic’s passenger experienced through a great schedule of enrichment programs and memorials.”

 Onboard, guests will be able to participate in three memorial services, a wreath-laying ceremony, as well as presentations by a prestigious line-up of maritime and fashion researchers and historians, executives from international Titanic societies, and survivors’ relatives. Dinner menus also will feature dishes from recipes served aboard Titanic and guests can learn the Irish dance with which the ship’s third-class passengers would have celebrated.

“It is truly an honor to charter Azamara Journey to Voyages! Titanic 2012 and help memorialize one of the most well-known maritime events in history,” said Larry Pimentel, president and CEO of Azamara Club Cruises. “Azamara Club Cruises is dedicated to delivering unique voyages coupled with extraordinary service, and Voyages! Titanic 2012 is an example of the many distinctive itineraries and onboard experiences that we offer.”

In addition to three days at the location of Titanic’s wreckage, Azamara Journey also will call at Halifax, Nova Scotia, where guests can choose excursion options that visit the Titanic cemeteries, the Maritime Museum and other memorial sites in the city that played a pivotal role in this historical event.

Guests of Azamara Journey also will enjoy the cruise line’s extraordinary signature service and more inclusive onboard amenities, such as included gratuities for housekeeping, dining and bar staff; complimentary bottled water, sodas, specialty coffee, and teas, as well as complimentary boutique red and white wines to accompany lunch and dinner; and English Butler service for suite guests.

The Lease Coach: January-February 2019

What makes a lease good or Bad?
Dale Willerton and Jeff Grandfield
February 12, 2019
Written by Dale Willerton and Jeff Grandfield
Learning real estate law around starting a business is hard enough: Here are tips to help you recognize a lease that’s legit.

Yes, tenants, you can – and should – negotiate the terms of your lease. The problem is that many bakery tenants overlook the importance of their commercial lease and don’t know the difference between a “good” lease and a “bad” lease.

A bad lease agreement may hold you back from making a good profit, or even result in the closure of your business. Great bakeries in poor locations will never reach the full potential that a better location may offer. Perhaps, you’ve picked a great location but leased too many (or too few) square feet; this can be a problem as well.

Combine a mediocre location with a high rental rate and you have a recipe for disaster. Your bakery will never succeed, let alone sell for a profit. Many bakers shop for cheap space, but get what they pay for, location-wise. Not to downplay the need for skillful negotiation, but you don’t want to pay too much for a good location. In many of the large malls, the property may be recognized as an excellent location, but getting stuck in a quiet area of the property may render you nearly invisible.

Another factor can be a lack of adequate parking for your customers. One tenant The Lease Coach helped with a midterm rent reduction, came to the sad realization that their newest location was parking-starved. Just when people wanted to visit, the parking lot was already filled with vehicles. Potential customers stuck their heads in just to complain that they couldn’t find a parking space, then drove away.

A good lease will contain primary business terms, such as rent, size of location, and term length, that are essential to the completed lease deal but will only make up  a small portion of the lease. The rest of the agreement contains hundreds of ancillary clauses that may or may not be financial in nature and are often written in the landlord’s favour. It’s a common mistake for bakery tenants to overlook terms, thinking they’re simply “standard.” Many of these terms can be adjusted to reduce potential negative impacts to your business or limitation on future rights.

Making a good lease great means removing, deleting, or negotiating restrictive clauses in the agreement that will hinder your company. For some tenants, the renewal-option clause can be the difference between whether you get a longerterm stay in your location allowing your business to grow. A demolition clause can force you to move out of your premises if the landlord wants to knock down the building to renovate. A poorly written relocation clause can force you into a costly move. If a baker wants to sell their business and assign their lease agreement to the buyer, the lease must have a comprehensive lease agreement clause. However, commercial landlords often include conditions controlling or prohibiting the lease assignment (unless wording is added for the tenant’s protection.) An exclusivity clause prevents your direct competitors or neighboring tenants from offering the same services or products. Review the hours and days of operation required in your lease; you may need to negotiate modified days or hours when it’s unprofitable to stay open. These are just some examples why it is important to read and negotiate all the terms of your lease before signing.

Brevity in a lease agreement is the enemy of most bakery tenants. A good lease agreement is long. Never assume that what the lease doesn’t say will be to your benefit later – it never is. As the tenant, you want everything that could possibly be an issue addressed in your lease agreement. Remember, it’s often what is missing from a lease agreement that really comes back to haunt you. If you plan to sell your bakery, try to think of whether you’d buy this business based on its current lease. As a prospective buyer, what parts of the agreement would you not like? Would the rent seem high? What about the operating costs (common area maintenance/CAM costs?) Would a shortage of parking or an undesirable neighbor drive away your potential customers and buyers of your business? Are there renewal options valid to a future buyer? Thinking about these issues beforehand can make all the difference in your decision-making process.

All of these are scary scenarios requiring proper guidance from a professional who is working for you, being paid by you, and serving your needs.

Gun dealers up to speed National system to check customers 'working fine'; Phones caused shutdown; Less than 1 percent of applicants denied nationwide, FBI says

The new national system of instant background checks for potential firearms purchasers is living up to its name after all.

After an ignominious start marred by long delays and a midday shutdown when the system was introduced Nov. 30, Maryland gun dealers say most reviews by the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (or NICS) are being completed in a couple of minutes.

While some dealers describe the system as intrusive and unnecessary, they have largely muted the anger and frustration they expressed on the first day, when they were unable to make sales of shotguns and rifles because they could not complete the calls needed to make the checks.

"The system seems to be working fine," said Al Koch, manager of Barts Sports World in Glen Burnie.

"The first two days, I was really worried about my business," he said. "It's still an inconvenience, but the problems seem to have been worked out tremendously."

Technical problems with a telephone switching system that caused the system to be shut for an hour and a half on its first day of operation have been corrected, said a spokesman for the FBI's data processing center in Clarksburg, W.Va., which conducts the background checks.

Glitches 'smoothed out'

"We ran into a few glitches in the beginning. Things have pretty much smoothed out," said Steve Fischer, the spokesman.

The nationwide system expands the background approvals required for handgun purchasers under the 1993 Brady Act to include buyers of rifles and shotguns as well as those redeeming handguns that they have pawned.

Federal law prohibits firearms purchases by those convicted of or under indictment for felonies; people who have had a dishonorable military discharge or are under a restraining order for domestic violence; and those who have been diagnosed as mentally ill.

Under NICS, each gun dealer has a code that allows the seller to access the system through a toll-free number. Applicants are then checked against the Criminal Justice Information System and other databases.

Though the automatic five-day waiting period for approved handgun purchases has been eliminated under the system, Maryland's seven-day waiting period for handgun buyers remains in effect.

In its first two weeks of operation, the system processed 372,565 background checks on potential firearms purchasers nationwide, according to the FBI.

Of those, 77 percent of applicants were given immediate clearance to purchase guns, the FBI said. Less than 1 percent, or 3,348, were turned down.

The remainder of the applications required additional analysis and clarification; the law gives the FBI up to three days to respond to an applicant if the information in the databases is inconclusive.

Those figures do not include statistics from 16 states that perform checks for handguns and long guns, and 11 states, including Maryland, that conduct checks for only handguns.

About 12.5 million guns of all kinds are sold each year in the United States, and another 2.5 million guns are redeemed each year from pawnshops.

NRA files suit

On Dec. 1, the day after the system took effect, the National Rifle Association filed suit in federal court in Washington to prevent the FBI from keeping lists of people who buy guns.

The Justice Department said the FBI records on buyers would be kept for six months or less.

Patrick Loughlin, manager of Valley Gun in Parkville, said the problems with the system occurred within the first couple of days and criticized the FBI for not instituting a "trial run" before the law went into effect. But he said, "Actually, it's working pretty darn good.

"We're getting reports in two to three minutes, which is the way the system is supposed to work," he said.

Larry Albright, owner of Albright's Gun Shop in Easton, said most of the delays he has gotten in getting approvals involved potential purchasers with "ordinary names, like Smith and Jones."

Albright said he has lost "a couple" of sales to out-of-town customers whose applications were delayed, but he said no applicant has been denied.

"It has gotten better," he said of the system. "It's still a nuisance. But it has not been like the first two days. I didn't get through the second day until 10 o'clock at night."

Albright complained that introduction of the system subjected law-abiding citizens to a new bureaucracy and "got the entire country sidetracked from the real issue" of crime.

"The focus has not been on the violent criminal and the repeat offender," he said.
