hmmmm, and you didn't even say 'thanks' for my help with your international sales contract... One would think you could easily, say: 1. compare the table of contents from a UCC 'nutshell' to that of a CSIG 'nutshell', 2. look at a decent outline for a Secured Transactions / Commercial Paper class, or 3. ask a classmate. You could also try posting you question on the infirmation.com board; which, one would think, is a more appropriate forum for these types of queries...

You can COULD change this one to fit your facts...a lot of it is 'boiler plate' language and it covers all the main points; terms of payment, delivery, assumption of risk etc....

Neither!! I would get the CLK 430, either the coupe or the cabriolet version. (They are around the same price.) If you really want something with 4 doors, that's a good value, take a look at the X class Jag...

I e-mailed the Plant list and got this response "Apologies to anyone who recieved an email regarding a reduced list for Basement Jaxx. There is none, If you want to make sure that you get in, Be there before 11pm."
