PPT On Secrets To Buying Thailand Condominiums

Secrets To Buying Thailand Condominiums

Download

Description:
1.How to buy a condo or apartment in Thailand.
2.One question we are constantly asked is if you have to obtain permission from the government before purchasing property ?
Answer: No
3.To buy a condo or apartment in Thailand is very simple if you're a non-Thai. Most projects have a 51%-49% ownership rule. If the Building is over 51% Thai owned, a foreigner can purchase and own the condo or apartment freehold.
4.If not, you must purchase the apartment as a 30 year lease. Check with the local land office before you purchase if you are unsure about the title deed.
5.Buying direct from the developer has several advantages: you will get to see a range of properties in Thailand that suit your requirements; you have the benefit of many years experience, as well as a English speaking office to support you in your home country; it may help eliminate any possible misunderstandings; and it helps takes away the stress associated with purchasing in Thailand or abroad.
Transactions and payments are simply made by wiring from you home bank account. It's always better to let the Thai banks convert your money in Thailand then to let you home bank to convert it to Baht before you wire. This tip along can save you thousands of dollars when you go to wire a large amount.
Some developers can "lock in" a rate for you before you wire. Make sure you can communicate with your agent by MSN chat, Skype or text message in case you have any last minute questions while at the bank.
The Thai currency system is based on the decimal system. One That Baht is divided into 100 satangs. Coins range in value from ten baht to 25 satangs and six bank notes are in circulation: 10, 20, 50,100,500 and 1000. Always keep lots of small bills as it's a big jump between 100 baht and 500 or a 1000. Most street vendors and taxis can't make change for 1000 baht.
6.Personal effects, household goods and furniture may be imported duty free. There is very high duty on importing a car. I believe with the hassle of dealing with Thai customs it's better to buy what you need inside of Thailand and leave most of your personal effects at home.

PowerPoint Presentation On Climate Change

PPT On Climate Change

Download

Description:
1.IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON LIVESTOCK AND MITIGATION STRATEGIES

2. Climate
Specific atmospheric trend and pattern of particular place determined by the interaction of Atmospheric elements

3. Climate Change
Climate change is a phenomenon due to emissions of greenhouse gases from fuel combustion, deforestation, urbanization and industrialization (Upreti, 1999) resulting variations in solar energy, temperature and precipitation.

4.Livestock : GHG emissions
Livestock  18 % of GHGs
The enteric fermentation of animals,
Manure (waste products),
Production of feed and forage (Dourmad et al., 2008).
Indirect sources : changes in land use and deforestation to create pasture land.

5.Climate change will have major impact on the people who depend on livestock for their livelihoods (Thornton et al., 2002).

6. Climate Change and its Impacts in Nepal
Approximately 0.06 degrees Celsius per year.
Temperature in the Himalayas is increasing at a faster rate.
The Rika Samba Glacier in the Dhaulagiri region is retreating at a rate of 10m per year.
The AX010 Glacier of Shorong Himal will be extinct by 2060 if the current trend continues.
More than 40 Himalayan glacial lakes are dangerously closed to bursting (UNEP).
Rapidly melting glaciers means more seasonal variation in river flow water shortage, frequent floods and draughts in the country.

7.Direct And Indirect Impacts On Livestock And Livestock Systems
Feeds: quantity and quality
Herbage growth and quality
Changes in composition of pasture
Changing concentration
of water soluble carbohydrates
and N at given dry matter yields
Lignifications of plant tissues

8.B. Heat stress :
Feed intake, mortality, growth, reproduction, maintenance and production
Increased energy deficits

C. Water :
Water scarcity
Not only will affect livestock drinking water sources, but it will also have a bearing on livestock feed production systems and pasture yield (Thornton et al., 2008)

9.D. Livestock diseases and disease vectors
Vector-borne diseases could be affected by:
(i) Expansion of vector populations into more temperate zones (such as livestock tick-borne diseases in higher altitude areas).
(ii) Changes in rainfall pattern during wetter years, which could also lead to expanding vector populations and large-scale outbreaks of disease.

10.Livestock disease
Helminthes infections.
Trypanotolerance- could be lost.
Distribution and impact of malaria in many systems.
Schistosomiasis and lymphatic filariasis in irrigated systems.
Heat-related mortality and morbidity could increase (Thornton et al., 2008).

11.E. Biodiversity
A 2.5° C rise in global temperature
high risk of extinction.
Local and rare breeds could be lost

12.Livestock Adaptation strategies
Breeding strategies
Identifying and strengthening local breeds
Adapted to local climatic stress and feed sources
Heat tolerant breeds
Disease tolerant breeds
Improving local genetics
Cross-breeding

13.Livestock management systems
Shade and water to reduce heat stress.
Reduction of livestock numbers – a lower number of more productive animals leads to more efficient production and lower GHG emissions from livestock production (Batima, 2007).
Changes in herd composition (selection of large animals rather than small)
Improved management of water resources (e.g. drip and sprinkler irrigation, store rainwater).

14.Mitigation of livestock GHG emissions
Higher concentrate in the diet  lower the emission of CH4.
Management of animal waste products (covered storage facilities).
Pasture grazing through rotational grazing.
Management of feed crop production.
Selection of faster growing breeds.
Lowering livestock production and consumption

15.Take-home messages
Participatory approaches to sustainable management of natural resources
Community involvement in adaptation strategies
Financial incentives
Risk management mechanisms
Awareness and education
Mitigation strategies
Innovation, research and technology development
Indigenous knowledge

World Need Leaders

Description:

Steven Paul Jobs
Born in 1955 in Green Bay, Wisconsin
Adopted by Paul and Clara Jobs to live in Santa Clara, California
Graduated high school in Cupertino, California

Education
Jobs went to Reed College in Portland Oregon
He studied Poetry, Literature, and Physics
After one semester, Jobs dropped out of school, but still attended some classes

Steves
Jobs met Steve Wozniak shortly after they both left school while working for Hewlett-Packard
“Woz” was an incredibly talented engineer, especially in electronic gadgets
While developing a “blue box” device, Jobs convinced Woz to sell it to Berkeley students.

The Beginnings of Apple
After spending time in India in 1974, Jobs returned to America
He visited with Woz the homebrew computer club, but was not content with just the creation of electronics.
Jobs convinced Woz to help him create a personal computer, the Apple I
Jobs, with marketing help from a friend, had the vision of creating a computer company that would make and sell pc’s.
After showing the Apple I to in town computer stores, Jobs was able to sell 25.
After selling his Volkswagon mini-bus, and asking Woz to sell his scientific calculator, the two raised enough money to create Apple Computers.

Apple
Jobs and Woz sold the Apple I in 1976 for $666, making over $776,000 from sales
In 1977, the two released the Apple II, a single board computer with onboard ROM and a color video interface.

Positive Growth
From 1977 to 1983, Apple continued to grow exponentially.
In 1981, IBM finally entered the personal computer market, and in just two years began to outsell Apple.
After the failure of the Apple III and Lisa, Jobs needed a new computer that could compete with the IBM PC.

The Macintosh
In 1984, Apple released the Macintosh, the first personal computer with a graphical user interface.
It had 128K of memory, and was expandable.
Along with the mouse, the Macintosh was the most revolutionary computer made up to that point.

Microsoft and John Sculley
In 1985, Bill Gates convinced Jobs to license the graphical user interface in the Macintosh to create Windows, which could run on IBM PC’s.
As sales of the Macintosh took off, CEO John Sculley thought that Jobs was hurting Apple’s success, and gradually forced Jobs to leave.

NeXT
Jobs project in the late 1980’s to mid 90’s was NextStep
A new computer company based on an object oriented software platform, NeXT failed first as a hardware company, then as a software company
Apple similarly did very poorly in the early and mid 90’s, brought on by poor leadership and stagnating computer design

The Second Coming of Jobs
In 1996, Apple bought NeXT, and with it came Steve Jobs.
In 2000, Jobs became the full CEO of Apple, after the success of the iMac, the first computer mainly marketed for its looks.

Return to Profitability and Innovation
Jobs continues to innovate the computer industry, spearheading projects like the iPod, iTunes and its Music Store, and high end computer
Under Jobs’ watch, Apple has entered a new phase of growth and profitability, fueled by his imagination and quest for perfection

Apple's Steve Jobs dead at 56
OCTOBER 05: Candles, flowers, and an iPhone with Steve Jobs photo displayed, are seen in remembrance of Steve Jobs, founder and former CEO of Apple Inc, outside the Apple Store at West 66th Street on October 5, 2011 in New York City.Jobs, 56, passed away October 5, 2011 after a long battle with pancreatic cancer. Jobs co-founded Apple in 1976 and is credited, along with Steve Wozniak, with marketing the world's first personal computer in addition to the popular iPod, iPhone and iPad.

Bikini Parade: Australians Break World Record

The new Guinness World Record for the longest bikini parade was set in Gold Coast City, Australia, Oct. 2, 2011. A look at the event, and some older attempts at setting new records in the swimsuit parade and photo shoot categories.

Guinness World Records adjudicator Chris Sheedy holds the certificate awarded to the participants at Surfers Paradise Beach in Gold Coast City on October 2, 2011 after they broke the world record for the longest bikini parade

357 bikini clad girls paraded on Surfers Paradise beach to break the record of 331 set in 2010 by the Cayman Island Amateur Swimming Association. The women who participated had to be a minimum of 18 years of age, and pay a registration of $25. All profits were donated to charity

The women walked 1.6 km along the streets and beach of Surfers' Paradise, and the event was broadcast live on national television

An electronic sign kept count of the women as they walked past, and at 332, the crowd erupted in cheers as they realized the previous record of 331 had been broken. The record was finally closed at as 357. The number would have been higher, but four women were disqualified for overdressing

The historic event formed a new category in the Guinness World Records book, and was watched by hundreds of spectators. The shoot appeared as a double gate fold insert in the January issue of Cosmopolitan

Thanks
