A planning authority with a national jurisdiction has other advantages to deal with the future of public services and land use patterns. Thus if a private firm is entirely responsible for a particular development, it is restricted to working within the existing road map, the pattern of which was probably established before the herald of motor transport. In this way the road layout becomes ossified in an inefficient form. In sharp contrast, the co-operation between the private developer and a local authority with wide planning powers would allow the road system to be altered to meet the needs of modern transport and also the upkeep of the environment. The same approach holds good when developing a home in Kerala.

Greater coordination between the public and the private agencies has ensured streamlined sustainable urban development processes. Many a time encroachment into hitherto secured areas has taken place due to ignorance and also due to misinformation. Thus some builders that started work in fragile land areas that was actually part of a protected area, had to abandon the project after sinking several crores into it. This has happened in many of the districts in Kerala. The very recent example is happenings in the popular hill station in Munnar.]]>

The job of the builder is also such kind of a job. Here due to the unavailability of time both the consumer and the builder enter into a contract. Thus the builder will be the all in all and the consumer will be a part time supervisor. Every consumer will be stubborn for the incorporation of their needs. Many things must be beyond the logic and ethics of the builder and his learning and objectives as such but he has to compromise with all those to be a good builder as somewhere he is aware of the fact that no builder is a premier home builder by birth.

ThePremier Home Buildersare born in the mind of the consumer from where they get the exposure. Thus the prime duty of any builder is to satisfy his consumer. The illogical demands should be tactically diverted and if possible should be incorporated without any hindrance to the whole structure in any way. Since it will be a risk the builder should make the consumer aware of the risky step. This will rather build an ongoing trustworthiness between them. Once they become the premier home builders it is not that they are free of their responsibilities, but now they have to keep up the position as such.

"May I go over what happens when a buyer is interested in purchasing your home? The buyer and agent write an offer that they deliver to me that I then present to you. Here's a copy of an offer and the additional paperwork that goes with it. There are more items than just price that have to be negotiated. I like to prepare you for all of it so that you can be more comfortable and confident when we're actually negotiating with the buyer. May I take a moment and go over it with you?"

Then, as you review it, explain all the items that might be negotiated in your market. The language is similar for a buyer.

Rule 2: Prepare the seller or buyer for the worst case.
Describe the best-case and the worst-case scenarios. Suggest that their experience will be somewhere in the middle but probably closer to the best case because you have worked hard to help all parties feel like they have won while you're getting the most for them.

When you prepare your client this way, you create their expectation for how it will go. This gives them tremendous peace of mind and confidence in you. It makes them much calmer during what is probably a very stressful time for them.

Understand that if you don't prepare them, once the negotiations begin they may try to control how it will go. They become tense, stressed, less cooperative, and distrustful of you.

Rehearse the words you'll use to prepare them for the negotiation. You'll find your business runs more smoothly, and you'll bring far less stress into your own home.

Rule 3: Research, Prepare, and Plan.
Gain information from everyone and anyone you can, including your client, the other agent, the other party, tax records, and past multiple listing records.

Specifically, you want to get answers to the following questions:

* Who's moving? Why? Where? When do they have to be there?
* Have sellers had any offers?
* Have buyers seen many properties?
* How long have they been looking or on the market?


When getting this information, be sure to respect ethics and laws. Also, instruct your sellers and buyers to be careful of what they say about where they're moving and why to ensure that they don't put themselves at a negotiating disadvantage.

Rule 4: Gain the respect of all the parties with simple courtesy and integrity.
When people realize you keep your word, it gives you additional influence in the negotiation. This entails:

* Showing up when you say you will.
* Calling when you say you will.
* Doing what you say you will.

Pretty straightforward, right? Yet this level of integrity is uncommon. If you can follow through on your promises, it will set you apart in the marketplace.

Rule 5: Maintain objectivity.
Do not talk about one party to the other except to say they're interested in the property or that they're obviously interested in selling. Very often when negotiations break down or get difficult, it's because the practitioner has shared his or her own opinion or inappropriate information about the other party.

This can also happen if the buyer talks directly to the seller. Don't bring the buyer and seller together at inappropriate times. They may say something that's misinterpreted and offend one another somehow.

Rule 6: Write an offer that you believe will be accepted.
Going back and forth more than twice makes the buyer and seller crazy. Include everything you think is important to get the deal together. Prepare buyers and sellers for this in your initial presentation.

These rules are a basis on which you can work to boost your skills to become a master negotiator.
Good luck with your future negotiations!]]> You might say something like:

If so, I've got good news for you! Creating professional, unique presentations can be much easier than you might think.
This article will help you find the right tools to get exactly the presentation you want. We'll look at three components of creating effective presentations, and provide timesaving tips to help send your presentation off in style.
Clearly communicate your information

Want slides that clearly communicate your most important points? You might be surprised at how little work it takes to go from basic to brilliant! PowerPoint provides a host of tools for keeping your slides consistent, precise, and professional.
Take a look at two versions of a basic bulleted text slide below. The text in both slides is identical. Which would you prefer to present?
It took just a couple of shapes and a bit of editing in the Slide Master to go from the slide on the left to the slide on the right.



Here are 4 ways to let Microsoft Office PowerPoint help you clearly communicate your information:

1. Set up and use AutoLayouts. In PowerPoint, you can select from over two dozen available layouts with a single click. Just open the Slide Layout task pane to view and access layouts for text and a variety of content. To open this task pane, on the Format menu click Slide Layout.
You can also customize the positioning and appearance of all layouts at once, using the Slide Master. On the Slide Master, make a variety of formatting changes just once to affect all slides in your presentation.
To access the Slide Master, on the View menu select Master and then click Slide Master. Once in Slide Master view, you can reformat the font, bullets, and even the line spacing of text. (These options are all available in the Format menu.) Or, alter the size and positioning of AutoLayout areas—the areas of the master that control slide layouts for the active presentation. Learn more about the Slide Master.
Get more tips for using masters in the Stay in Control of Your Presentations section of this article.
2. Turn off (or manage) AutoCorrect layout options. PowerPoint provides several automatic formatting options to help your slides conform to the provided layouts. They can be big timesavers, but they can also be frustrating if you're not using them intentionally. If you don't want your bulleted text to shrink automatically in order to fit content, or the positioning of pasted objects to change automatically, you can easily turn off these features.
To turn off any AutoFormat options, on the Tools menu click AutoCorrect Options. Then, select the AutoFormat As You Type tab of that dialog box.
The bottom three options on the AutoFormat As You Type tab of the AutoCorrect dialog box control automatic formatting behavior for layouts.
3. Start by outlining your presentation in Word. Take time to outline your presentation before creating slides. Doing so can save time and help you give a more clear and effective presentation.
Try setting up your outline in Word, using paragraph styles Heading 1 through Heading 9. When you use those styles for your outline, you can create PowerPoint slides in just a click. Learn to create PowerPoint slides from a Word outline.
4. Consider differences for print vs. screen presentations. Presentations designed to be viewed on screen don't always work well when you print them. Dark backgrounds that look good on slides, for example, rarely print well. Similarly, footer content that you need in print is likely to be distracting on-screen. Fortunately, PowerPoint makes it easy to switch between print and screen presentation designs. Here are two features that can help:
* PowerPoint provides color schemes that apply to different slide elements (such as text, lines, and object fills). You can format slides for print using one color scheme, then just click to apply a different scheme for on-screen use. All slide elements formatted with scheme colors will automatically swap to take on the new scheme. Learn more about using and customizing color schemes.
* Showing, hiding, and customizing header and footer content in PowerPoint can be a snap. Learn how to create and manage headers and footers.

Grab the viewer's attention

The Microsoft Office Clip Art gallery offers a huge range of images. These can be great for many uses, but they might not be the most sophisticated way to emphasize your important idea.
Creating slides that get the viewer's attention is not about which pictures to include. It's about using the space on your slides effectively. Don't crowd your slides, and only include elements that contribute to the points you want to make. When you use graphics on a slide, choose images that serve a purpose (such as a chart or diagram that displays a direct benefit of your idea). Compare the two marketing slides below, for example.
The simple column chart in the slide on the right replaces two paragraphs of text, and makes a much stronger impression. Coordinating the chart colors with the slide design was automatic.



Check out 4 ways to help grab and keep your viewer's attention.

1. Use sound recordings when sending a presentation electronically. A clean slide that emphasizes key points is more effective than a slide that contains every word you intend to say. But, what do you do if you're sending your presentation electronically? Consider recording narration to accompany your slides.
* To record narration for a presentation, on the Slide Show menu click Record Narration.
* To record sound for a single slide, on the Insert menu select Movies and Sounds and then click Record Sounds.
2. Use Notes and Handouts to help you stay on track or to create quick and easy leave-behinds for your viewers. Use the Notes pane that appears below the slide in Normal view to write notes to yourself for your presentation, or to create notes that you can print for your viewers. You can also format and print handouts that contain up to nine slides per page.
Learn to create Notes pages and Handouts.
3. Create charts and diagrams that emphasize your key points. To chart data in PowerPoint, start by clicking the Insert Chart icon on any Content slide layout, as show here:
The Insert Chart icon is circled in red.
* When you click the Insert Chart icon, you'll get a default chart that's a snap to customize and a data worksheet that's easy to edit.
* The Insert Diagram or Organization Chart tool (available from the Drawing toolbar) is a nice way to create quick and easy flowcharts. However, I find that using AutoShapes to create any type of diagram or flowchart can provide much more flexibility without much more work. See the Stay in Control of Your Presentations section of this article below for information on the available tools for creating flawless presentation graphics.
4. Use animation and slide transitions consistently and sparingly. Having text and graphics appear on-screen just when you need them can be a nice touch. However, using too much animation can distract from your presentation's content.
* For effects that emphasize without overwhelming, limit animation to key points and use consistent animation choices throughout the presentation. Open the Custom Animation task pane (available on the Slide Show menu) to apply and manage animation. Learn to use Custom Animation.
* Subtle and consistent slide transitions can also provide a professional touch without being distracting. Use the Slide Transition task pane (available from the Slide Show menu) to format and apply slide transitions. Learn about using slide transitions and timings.

Stay in control of your presentations

Custom colors, layouts, and graphics can do a lot for your presentation. But a misaligned flowchart, or a presentation that crashes on your client's computer, isn't likely to make the impression you want. For example, take a look at the two organization chart images below. Which would you prefer to call your own?
Nudging and fussing to create the organization chart on the left took about an hour, and it's far from perfect. Using available PowerPoint tools for duplicating and alignment, the chart on the right took just 10 minutes to create.



Here are 4 ways to keep your presentations both great-looking and easy-to-manage.

1. Keep file size manageable. A common cause of stress with PowerPoint presentations is that the file size becomes too large to edit or to run presentation smoothly. Fortunately, this problem is easy to avoid by using smaller picture file types, compressing pictures, and using native PowerPoint features whenever possible (such as tables, charts, and AutoShapes) instead of embedding and importing objects.
Learn more about reducing picture file size.
2. Use the available tools for creating perfect diagrams. One of the nicest things about PowerPoint is that getting something perfect is easier than getting it close.
* Instead of nudging objects until your eyes get tired, use the Align Or Distribute tools. They can help you perfectly align and evenly distribute objects in a click. To access these tools, select Align or Distribute from the Draw menu, which is available on the Drawing toolbar.
* You can also use Guides to align and space objects. Guides can help you measure distance and keep positioning of elements consistent across multiple slides. To see your Guides, on the View Menu select Grid and Guides. Then, in the Grid and Guides dialog box, select Display drawing guides on screen.
Learn more about alignment and distribution options for PowerPoint objects.
* Zooming in on an object in PowerPoint can greatly increase the accuracy of what you see. To do this without trial and error, just select the object before changing the Zoom setting on the Standard toolbar.

3. Know exactly what the recipient of your presentation will see. If you're sending a presentation by e-mail, try saving the presentation as a Slide Show so that it automatically opens for the recipient in slide show view. To do this, on the File menu click Save As. In the Save As dialog box, select PowerPoint Show (.pps) from the Save As Type dropdown list, as you see here:
This screenshot shows how to use save your presentation as a slide show.

If you're sending a presentation on CD, the Package for CD feature in PowerPoint is a great time and stress-saver. This feature will set up your presentation (including linked files) on a CD so that the slide show will run correctly for any recipient. It even adds a PowerPoint viewer so that the recipient's computer doesn't need PowerPoint to run the show. Learn more about Package for CD.
4. Use Masters for consistency and to save time. In addition to customizing elements of slide layouts (as discussed earlier in this article), you can use the masters to save time and keep slides consistent by adding graphics and formatting just once for all slides.
* Place graphics (such as your logo) on the Slide Master, so that they automatically appear on all slides. Note that, when graphics appear on the master, you can still hide them for just certain slides. To hide graphics for an active or selected slide, on the Format menu click Background. Then, in the Background dialog box, select Omit background graphics from master.
* You can add a Title Master to use different formatting and graphics on title slides from other slides in your presentation. To do this, switch to Slide Master View. Then, select New Title Master from the Insert menu.
* While a great new feature in PowerPoint enables you to create multiple slide masters for a single presentation, use this feature carefully. Keep in mind that the purpose of a master is to help keep your slides consistent.]]> Sound about right? If so, I've got good news for you! Creating professional, unique presentations can be much easier than you might think.

3. Know exactly what the recipient of your presentation will see. If you're sending a presentation by e-mail, try saving the presentation as a Slide Show so that it automatically opens for the recipient in slide show view. To do this, on the File menu click Save As. In the Save As dialog box, select PowerPoint Show (.pps) from the Save As Type dropdown list, as you see here:
This screenshot shows how to use save your presentation as a slide show.

If you're sending a presentation on CD, the Package for CD feature in PowerPoint is a great time and stress-saver. This feature will set up your presentation (including linked files) on a CD so that the slide show will run correctly for any recipient. It even adds a PowerPoint viewer so that the recipient's computer doesn't need PowerPoint to run the show. Learn more about Package for CD.
4. Use Masters for consistency and to save time. In addition to customizing elements of slide layouts (as discussed earlier in this article), you can use the masters to save time and keep slides consistent by adding graphics and formatting just once for all slides.
* Place graphics (such as your logo) on the Slide Master, so that they automatically appear on all slides. Note that, when graphics appear on the master, you can still hide them for just certain slides. To hide graphics for an active or selected slide, on the Format menu click Background. Then, in the Background dialog box, select Omit background graphics from master.
* You can add a Title Master to use different formatting and graphics on title slides from other slides in your presentation. To do this, switch to Slide Master View. Then, select New Title Master from the Insert menu.
* While a great new feature in PowerPoint enables you to create multiple slide masters for a single presentation, use this feature carefully. Keep in mind that the purpose of a master is to help keep your slides consistent.]]> http://forum.razmusteam.com/showthread.php?tid=178 Wed, 11 Aug 2010 04:35:25 -0400 maddy26 http://forum.razmusteam.com/showthread.php?tid=178 http://forum.razmusteam.com/showthread.php?tid=177 Thu, 29 Jul 2010 01:07:17 -0400 dilushana http://forum.razmusteam.com/showthread.php?tid=177 2.

These realtors can provide information on homes that are to be put on the market even before they get included in REO property listings. Having access to such information can help a home buyer prepare an offer before others are even aware that a particular home is for sale. It is best to hire a broker who is directly associated with banks that specialize in selling REO properties.

Paying Attention to Details

Buying homes directly from a lender actually offers a lot of advantages. However, this does not mean that buyers are not required to study every detail of the contract offered to them by the seller. They should keep in mind that contracts for purchasing or selling REO dwellings require a lot of special addendums and some provisions might not be noticeable at first glance. To untangle the numerous provisions, it is best to hire a real estate lawyer who can make sense of all the details.

Home buyers should also keep records of all transactions, including expenses for repairs and the cost of professional fees. In some cases, extra costs can qualify for tax deductions which can be a lot of help, particularly for homebuyers who have limited capital.]]>

In the workplace, functional gifts that reflect recipients' personalities or styles are most appropriate and appreciated. Try to select gifts that both men and women would like, and you can afford. Gifts should never be cash or expensive, which could start rumors, as in the old, stereotypical scenario where the boss gives his young, attractive secretary jewelry or furs.

The best strategy for employers is to assume the role of an equal co-worker when giving gifts to employees. Make sure there is a clear distinction between gifts to co-workers and the bonuses and/or incentives they may receive at the end of the year, which they've earned as part of doing a good job, and you've awarded in the role of their employer.

Office etiquette experts suggest you consider the following workplace gift-giving ideas:

* Check the employee handbook for any company rules about giving gifts.
* Be aware of gift recipients who might be vegetarians or diabetics, or follow religious practices that would cause some gifts to be inappropriate.
* Try to give gifts to co-workers privately.
* As an alternative, give a gift that everyone in the office can enjoy, such as a food basket.
* Most co-workers don't need another desk decoration or knick-knack.
* Think of a gift that could make the co-worker's job easier and more relaxing, such as a back massager for his or her chair or a CD of relaxing music.
* Give a gift that relates to a co-worker's hobbies and interests.
* Take a co-worker to lunch, or even dinner, who has been working long hours and eating at his or her desk.

The best method is to be creative and take the time to pick the best and most appropriate gift.]]>

A recent discussion between me and my friends about giving Islamic gifts to each other for birthdays and other special occasions led me to think as to why is it that these types of presents are so important to us. When I was growing up, my parents always stressed that we get small religious artifacts for all occasions, but I never thought that the reason behind it was to promote the concept of Islamic gifts between me and my siblings. So when one of my friends said Islamic gifts, I asked her what do you mean by that, aren't all gifts Islamic? She told me that her parents never bought religious things for them, and only when she grew up she realized the importance these items have in a person's life.

Being a born Muslim and belonging to a relatively religious family, I now realize that the things that we took for granted were not the same for other families. For Eid festivals, my father always used to get me and my brother Islamic gifts such as Islamic posters, jewellery and stickers with Quranic Ayah, whereas for birthdays, the gifts included interesting and informative Islamic books. These things provided us with loads of information about our religion in a fun and entertaining way, and we looked forward to these occasions to receive great Islamic gifts that would further enlighten us about Islam.

Now that I am older and have a son of my own, I want to impart the importance of Islamic gifts to him as well, so I have been following my parent's tradition and have been giving him small Islamic items for all the important occasions. He is still very young so I try to get him things that are interesting and appeal to the young ones as well.

Today there are numerous toys available that prove to be great Islamic gifts for children which were not available when we were young. An Islamic storyteller that I got for my son when he was 2 years old was so much fun that even I used to enjoy hearing the stories of the different prophets and their lives. This year I bought him an Islamic laptop that teaches Arabic counting and words to children aged 4-6. It's a great and interactive way for children to learn these things and what better to learn about than their own religion!]]>

Gifts that have military logos on them can be purchased for someone who has served or for anyone who has a loved one at war. Gifts can also be given to people who are still on duty. Care packages are a great way to tell them that you miss them and you love them. There is no such thing as a perfect care package because they will love anything you get them.

The first step to putting together a great package is obviously making a list of their favorite things. If they have a favorite candy or any favorite movies you could go to a local store and pick up a random assortment of food and it does not have to cost you a fortune. You can get them things such as a blanket to stay warm, some basic everyday supplies such as toothpaste, underwear, and socks. They will appreciate the fact that you thought of their wants and needs and even though underwear is not that exciting, they will think it is nice that you thought of it.

You will need to find something to put all of the stuff in and a plain brown box is probably the best option. Considering that you are sending it across the world, the cheapest and smallest package is the best option for you and your wallet. If you do not have the address, you are going to need to find it and the last thing you should do before sending it off would be to make sure it is very securely put together. The last thing you want to happen would be for the box to break and have everything fall out.

Great gifts for men in the military do not have to cost you a fortune. You can find them pretty much anywhere too! Guys are very simple when it comes to gifts and unlike girls, they do not think too much into the gifts they get; so basically you can get them anything and they will like it. Food and clothing is a great idea but if you want you could get something they could really use such as a flashlight or some stationary that they can use to write letters to their family or friends.]]>

While entertaining or informational reality shows are very popular, there's another type of show that's tempting people to sit down and engage with the world around them. These are the ones that comment on our society and the ways we can change situations for the people around us in a hopeful and heart-warming way.

When it comes to feel good programmes, there are few as successful as shows like the 'Secret Millionaire'. This programme sees a wealthy, self-made business person facing some harsh realities about life at the other end of the social scale. The aim is for the wealthy individual to hide their identities and travel to other parts of the country to find people who are deserving of their financial aid.

The secret millionaires will then give away some of their money in the hope of making a lasting difference to individuals and communities.

The show has proved extremely popular since it first aired in 2006 and while it started off in the UK, there are now American and Australian versions too. A good mixture of people is chosen to be the generous individuals and the climax of the show is always a rewarding one that defies soft hearted viewers to hold back their tears.[/align]]]>

Well, nine out of ten persons continue to make the same old mistakes because they still have not understood where they are going wrong. To make use of the credit card without any restrictions when you receive it first and to regret it at a later debt-this does not make sense.

Yet, people continue to make the same mistakes because they have never been told that this is the primary reason for all their financial problems. Hence, if you are searching for credit debt solutions, it goes without saying that counseling by an expert is a very smart move.

A visit to your family doctor to find out what is the problem is the first step that you should take whenever you feel ill. You can't just walk in to a full fledged hospital and get yourself admitted for a brain surgery without consulting your family doctor, can you? It is not advisable.

Imagine credit counseling as the family doctor. Whenever you are facing many problems, you should get in touch with the counseling expert. However, if it is understood that you are facing the problem of a brain tumor, it is obvious that your family doctor is not going to suffice.

Your doctor may be of the opinion that he or she can cure you but you should know better. That is where debt settlement enters the picture. If your finances are in such a poor shape that no amount of negotiations with your lenders for extension of repayment time is going to work, then you should go in for a settlement deal.

The settlement deal will give you a 50%-70% discount of the total amount payable. Further, you will get installment facility. This is an aggressive and proactive solution that will bring your debts down immediately.

On the other hand, if you make the mistake of sticking to credit counseling when you ought to go in for some other solution, you may end up in bankruptcy. Hence, each and every debt relief option has its own advantages and you should learn when to use the same. Rather than simply concluding that settlement is good and counseling is bad or vice-a-versa, you should focus on the requirements and the effectiveness.]]>

So, while a gross restructuring has not occurred, prices have fallen sharply and the current opportunity to buy superior assets is unparalleled.
