Singapore's new Payment Services Act consolidates current regulatory frameworks for payments into a unified, expanded framework intended to align the payments ecosystem with the country's Smart Nation vision. The Act focuses on retail payment activities by service providers that deal directly with consumers or merchants. The Act implements an activity-based, risk-calibrated approach to regulation and a consolidated, enhanced licensing scheme.
The Singapore International Commercial Court has decided the nation's first case featuring digital tokens. In B2C2 Ltd v Quoine Pte Ltd, the SICC found that Quoine, a Singapore-based digital token exchange operator, committed breach of contract and breach of trust when it reversed seven trades worth about S$16.5 million that were executed under unusual circumstances by B2C2, an algorithmic trader.
Singapore's Personal Data Protection Commission, in collaboration with the Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore, issued a discussion paper on data portability. Data portability is the right of individuals to obtain copies of their data from companies that hold them and to instruct those companies to transmit their data to other companies. The Paper is intended to provide a framework for discussions of the effects and operational considerations related to data portability, with a view to informing future consultations concerning Singapore's potential adoption of a data portability right.
The Personal Data Protection Commission directed COURTS (Singapore) Pte Ltd to pay a S$15,000 penalty for automatically displaying an individual's contact number and residential address if an email address entered on a guest check-out page of the firm's website matched an email address in the firm's database. The PDPC found that COURTS violated the PDPA's Protection Obligation by allowing an email address to be used as the sole login credential.
In what it called "the worst breach of personal data in Singapore's history", the Personal Data Protection Commission imposed penalties of S$250,000 on Singapore Health Services Pte Ltd and S$750,000 on Integrated Health Information Systems Pte Ltd after a hacker exfiltrated almost 1.5 million patients' personal data and 159,000 patients' outpatient prescription records.


Worn from: 21 October 1944 - 15 August 1945.
The triangular shape of the insignia represents the wedge driven by the Allies into Germany and her satellites during World War II.

The elevated displayed wings of the eagle indicate alertness and action. Red, white, and blue are the national colors of the United States.
Worn from: 29 December 1945 - 18 April 1946.
The origin and significance of the design is unknown.
This mission was established after the conclusion of the Potsdam Conference -- a meeting of the Big Three (United States, Great Britain and USSR).

Looking at that, I wonder how God could possibly love me much less want to dance with me. I'm humbled when I remember that even though I am sinful, He sees me sinless through the blood of His son, Jesus Christ. There's a song that I used to sing in church that says "When He sees/He sees the blood of the Lamb/He sees me as worthy yet not as I am/He sees me in garments as white as the snow/For the Lamb of God is worthy and He's washed me, this I know". God sees beyond our fault and looks to our need. When He saves us, He brings us back to life with his dance of irresistible grace and after that we are forever His and He is forever ours.
Thanks for reading, and remember that you are loved by the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.

To prune, or not to prune, that is the question? Although pruning and tree trimming is a vital part of a beautifully manicured yard, it's not recommend if done improperly. Incorrect trimming can hurt or kill trees and shrubs. In fact, more trees are killed by improper pruning each year than pests. Our tree service division focuses on the right way to do things. Some call us a bunch of tree huggers, but who else would you want caring for your trees?
Pruning is the process of removing plant life from trees and shrubs that are no longer required, dead, no use to the plant, or could be a potential electrical or storm danger. A tree service technician can determine this for you. By removing these areas it allows the tree to use this additional energy to produce healthy flowers, fruit, limbs, and foliage. Properly trimmed trees and shrubs that are shaped to perfection are also beautiful addition to the landscape. In addition to having the proper experience, using the correct maintained tools is vital; our tree service technicians only use the best. Pruning tools include: pruning shears, lopping shears, combination pole saw pruner, pruning saw and hedge shears. A tree service technician will make sure blades are sharpened and the equipment is oiled properly.
You may have heard of "tree training." This is a process that is much more efficient and more desirable way to shape and form trees. While pruning is used to remove plant life from a tree to correct or maintain shape and structure, tree training is a practice that directs tree growth. It's better to direct tree growth with tree training than correcting the shape with pruning. Contact our tree service technician today to learn about this great service.

La Niña is expected to be back and it may wreck your winter. But that depends on where you live and if you do or don't like the cold.
NOAA's Climate Prediction Center has released its winter outlook. This forecast is not a guide for deciding your detailed ski vacation or New Year's Eve plans, but it may give you an idea of which winter coat you should buy for the season and if you need to stock up on whiskey and coffee.
"It would be quite surprising to see a third very warm winter in a row," said Mike Halpert, the deputy director of NOAA's Climate Prediction Center.
He said the forecast shows conditions will be warmer, but he doesn't think we will see a top 10 record warm winter like we have the past two years.
You can probably leave the long underwear in storage if you live in the South. NOAA says two-thirds of the continental US will likely experience warmer-than-normal conditions.
The East Coast has anywhere from a 33%-40% chance of having an above-average winter. This doesn't mean a cold snap or two won't happen, it's just less likely.
The Northern Plains and Northwest are the only locations the CPC thinks the winter season will be below average. The rest of the continental US has equal chances of experiencing a normal winter — meaning residents there will have equal chances of having above, near or below-normal temperatures.
You may want to get a waterproof jacket this season if you live in the northern Rockies or Midwest. The CPC is forecasting above-average precipitation in these areas, while a stretch from Southern California to the Carolinas is expected to be drier. Northern Florida and south Georgia — regions that have had drought conditions within the past year, but not now — have the greatest probability of drier conditions.
Drought could develop in some areas of the South due to the drier conditions — especially in areas that missed the rainfall associated with the active 2017 hurricane season.
The winter pattern that is setting up looks to favor storm tracks across the northern tier of the country. This pattern makes it less likely to have Mid-Atlantic and New England coastal storms that develop in the Gulf of Mexico and track up the East Coast.
We are currently in a La Niña watch, according to the CPC's October discussion. Forecasters give about a 55%-65% chance during the fall and winter that La Niña will fully form.
The effects of El Niño and La Niña are much more noticeable during the winter months across the US. If La Niña forms, this will have a direct impact on the weather this winter.
"If La Nina conditions develop, we predict it will be weak and potentially short-lived, but it could still shape the character of the upcoming winter," said Halpert.
During a typical La Niña winter, the Northwest and Midwest are typically colder and wetter, while the Southwest to Southeast remains drier than average.
This all happens because the Pacific jet stream meanders higher into Alaska and Canada, helping to keep some of the dips in the jet stream farther north across the Eastern US.
It doesn't mean that the Southeast will escape winter weather altogether — the chances are just lower, and the average temperature is likely to be above average.
If La Niña does not form as expected, the updated winter outlook issued in mid-November will look different.
Just how accurate is this forecast?
If we look at last year's winter outlook, most of the US would likely give forecasters a B+ rating on their 2016-2017 temperature outlook.
A year ago, they predicted an outlook very similar to this year's forecast: warm across the South and cooler across the Northern Plains. They were right about above-average temperatures across the South. However, the jet stream set up a little bit differently than expected and the below-average temperatures expected in the Northern Plains occurred farther west into the Northwestern US.
So, in the big picture, they were close, but if you live in Seattle, you might have had a few choice words to say about last year's snowy winter and the big fluffy jacket you didn't buy.
Then there was the precipitation outlook last year. If we stay with the grade-school analogy, forecasters still passed, but their predictions were just slightly better than flipping a coin.
We again turn our attention to the West, where the overall winter forecast was for drier weather, especially in the Southwest. But multiple atmospheric river events in December, January and February of last year wrecked that prediction. Again, overall a passing grade.
So, look at the big picture: Winter is coming, and we have a bit of an idea as to where.
But there are a lot of dynamics at play here — thermodynamics in fact — and this is not a pinpoint forecast showing you where it will or won't snow this season. Instead, this is a way to help you mentally prepare yourself for what lies ahead this winter.
Now you know that you might want to buy a raincoat for every day of the week in the Northwest, while in the South you will likely get away with a lighter coat or vest most of the winter.
The coffee and/or whiskey are just a given no matter where you are this winter.

Ascended Masters – What Is An Ascended Master?
To better understand what an Ascended Master is, I will share with you my understanding of what it means to ascend. To ascend is to rise above and reach through the fear of the unknown. This, of course is just the beginning.
Ascend is defined as to float or suspend the physical in the air, above the physical plane of dense material energy. It is releasing, temporarily, all that is not of love and light. It is expanding conscious awareness, reaching higher and higher levels of consciousness.
It is also about surrendering the need for material things and sometimes other people in the physical sense, rising above the laws of gravity. The higher your energy vibrates, the higher your sense of conscious awareness.
I sensed profound beauty and grace as I read your post.
Again, you have tugged upon my heart string.
I very much apprecieat your taking time to view this post and for your kind words.
It is a pleasure sharing the path.

Our theme for 2020 is Time and our artists will be inspiring us to change the way we think about Time in all its many facets. We will be looking forward to the future as well as paying attention to the past and our rich natural and cultural heritage. We will consider how we use time, and how we can make sure we don't run out of time in addressing the environmental and climate threats the world is facing. We showcase art which will hopefully provoke, inspire and challenge you. Above all we want to have fun and celebrate the very special landscape we are lucky enough to live and work in.

Pensão alimentícia é a quantia fixada pelo juiz e a ser atendida pelo responsável (pensioneiro), para manutenção dos filhos e/ou do outro cônjuge. Há diversidade entre a conceituação jurídica e a noção vulgar de"alimentos". Compreendendo-os em sentido amplo, o direito insere no valor semântico do vocabulário uma abrangência maior, para estendê-lo, além da acepção fisiológica, a tudo mais necessário à manutenção individual: sustento, habitação, vestuário e tratamento.

A Constituição Federal e o Código Civil brasileiros afirmam que o dever de pagar a pensão alimentícia é da família, ou seja, dos pais (pai e da mãe), em primeiro lugar, mas na ausência de um deles pode ser atendida por outro parente mais próximo como avós.

Para a concessão da pensão alimentícia o juiz deve observar a existência do trinômio  necessidade (de quem pede), possibilidade (de quem pagará) e a proporcionalidade entre os dois requisitos.

Alimentos entre cônjuges
De acordo com o disposto no art. 1566, III, do Código Civil, os cônjuges devem-se mútua assistência. Daí o direito a alimentos, embora a expressão "mútua assistência" não se refira somente aos alimentos. O Código Civil de 1916, todavia, não continha dispositivo algum referente a alimentos entre cônjuges, pois a disciplina dos arts. 396 a 405 dirigia-se ao parentesco. O Código Civil de 2002 trouxe os arts. 1.702, 1.703 e 1.704 para enfrentar situações de alimentos no desfazimento da sociedade conjugal.

Significativa inovação trouxe o Código Civil de 2002 também ao prever a fixação de alimentos na dissolução litigiosa da sociedade conjugal mesmo em favor do cônjuge declarado culpado, se deles vier a necessitar e não tiver parentes em condição de prestá-los, nem aptidão para o trabalho, limitando-se, todavia, a pensão ao indispensável à sobrevivência deste (art. 1.704, parágrafo único).

O cônjuge inocente e desprovido de recursos, entretanto, terá direito à pensão, a ser paga pelo outro, fixada com obediência aos critérios estabelecidos no art. 1694 e destinada, portanto, a proporcionar-lhe um modo de vida compatível com a sua condição social, inclusive para atender às necessidades de sua educação, e não apenas para suprir o indispensável à sua subsistência (art. 1702). Mas se o credor de alimentos tiver comportamento indigno ou desonroso em relação ao devedor, ofendendo-o em sua integridade física ou psíquica, expondo-o a situações humilhantes ou vexatórias, atingindo-o em sua honra e boa fama, em razão de injúria, difamação ou calúnia, praticando contra ele qualquer ato arrolado nos arts. 1.814 e 557 do Código Civil (aplicáveis por analogia); passar a viver em união estável, concubinato ou se casar novamente perderá os alimentos, exonerando o devedor; logo, não terá extinto o direito à pensão alimentícia se tiver mera ligação ocasional, mantendo relações sexuais com outra pessoa, porque inexiste o dever de fidelidade. Se cessar o concubinato, há julgados que entendem que se restaurará a pensão alimentícia e outros que consideram que não mais se revigorará.

Vale ressaltar que, conforme o art. 1708 do Código Civil, caso o credor se case, viva em união estável ou concubinato, a obrigação alimentar cessa, tanto em relação aos seus benefícios diretos como os indiretos, ocorrendo este último quando o tal benefício concedido pelo alimentante é apenas reflexo quanto à pessoa dos filhos.

Como afirma Sílvio Venosa, "com a igualdade de direitos entre os cônjuges, estabelecida no ordenamento constitucional, nada obsta, perante os pressupostos legais, que o homem venha a pedir alimentos à mulher. Ocorre, porém, na maioria das vezes, caber ao varão suprir a maior parte das necessidades do lar". Nem sempre, no entanto, a mulher será a parte mais fraca economicamente na relação conjugal. Não subsiste o direito alimentar se ambos os cônjuges desfrutam de igual situação financeira. Perante a equivalência de posição jurídica do marido e da mulher, todos os deveres e direitos que se analisam aplicam-se reciprocamente a ambos.

No que se trata sobre alimentos entre ex-cônjuges, o atual posicionamento do Superior Tribunal de Justiça, advindo com o Informativo 24, é de uma inovação jurisprudencial impulsionada pela mudança do papel da mulher na sociedade atual. O STJ aponta para o caráter excepcional da obrigação preceituada no Art. 1694 do Código Civil que estabelece a obrigação recíproca dos cônjuges, companheiros e parentes de prestar alimentos.

Anteriormente, a fixação de alimentos, especialmente em favor da mulher, era a regra nos processos de dissolução da sociedade conjugal. No entanto, o Tribunal Superior tem firmado entendimento de os alimentos entre cônjuges serem assegurados apenas em situações pontuais, tendo, portanto, caráter excepcional e temporário.

Hodiernamente, a fixação de alimentos depende de comprovação da sua efetiva necessidade, sendo fixados por tempo determinado necessário para recolocação do alimentando no mercado de trabalho para que possa suprir seu próprio sustento. Tal mudança de posicionamento se fundamenta na preocupação dos julgadores em repelir a inércia laboral e o comodismo financeiro em detrimento do outro cônjuge. É possível, entretanto, a existência de alimentos perenes. Sua ocorrência depende do caráter permanente ou da incapacidade para trabalhar do alimentando, ou da sua impossibilidade de se inserir no mercado de trabalho. (Vide REsp 1205408 / RJ)

A razoabilidade, idade, condição pessoal e formação profissional são elementos extremamente importantes para fixação do prazo para que o cônjuge consiga se restabelecer socioeconomicamente.  Se dessa análise for concluído que o alimentando apresenta idade, condições e formação profissional que lhe proporcionem uma provável inserção ou reinserção no mercado de trabalho, o prazo fixado será aquele considerado suficiente para que o credor possa restabelecer seu provento e estabilidade financeira. Ideal, ainda, é que tal pensão seja auferida de modo a servir como um elemento motivador, a fim de que estimule o alimentando a buscar seu próprio sustento e não permita a sua acomodação. (Vide REsp 1.025.76/ MG).

Vale ressaltar que, se dentro desse prazo, o alimentando alcançar independência financeira ou formar novo relacionamento, o recebimento indevido dos alimentos caracteriza enriquecimento ilícito, podendo ser extinta a obrigação através da Ação de Exoneração de Alimentos. A sentença que decreta tal exoneração não retroage à data da citação, incidindo somente a partir do trânsito em julgado da decisão (à exceção, evidentemente, dos casos nos quais há liminar ou antecipação de tutela liberando o alimentando a obrigação de pagar).

De acordo com o que dispõe o art. 1.709, o novo casamento do devedor de alimentos não altera sua obrigação constante da sentença de divórcio, embora o quantum da prestação possa ser suscetível de redução se, em razão dos encargos assumidos com a nova união, sofreu diminuição em sua capacidade financeira; o mesmo, por analogia, se poderá dizer se ele passar a viver em concubinato ou união estável.

Assim, embora a mudança de situação econômica do alimentante ou do alimentado possa causar, em último caso, a exoneração, tal modificação pode acarretar tão somente a alteração do encargo (art.1699, do Código Civil). Nas palavras de Caio Mário Pereira da Silva "se a situação do alimentante ou do alimentado mudar de tal modo que o primeiro não os possa prestar, ou não os suporte no quantitativo determinado; ou se o alimentado mudar melhorar as condições, poderá o juiz exonerar o devedor ou reduzir o encargo. Reversamente, se o credor de alimentos vier a necessitar de reforço da prestação, e o devedor o suportar, pode o suprimento ser agravado". Assim, caberá ao interessado ingressar em juízo com ação própria de revisão de cláusula de pensão.

Nesse mesmo sentido verifica-se as seguintes decisões do STJ: REsp 933355, REsp 1205408, REsp 1188399, REsp 886537, REsp 1087164, REsp 1143762, REsp 1025769, RHC 21514.

Há de destacar, contudo, a figura dos alimentos compensatórios, que vem gradativamente ganhando espaço na doutrina e jurisprudência pátrias. Tal obrigação consiste no pagamento de alimentos àquele cônjuge (trabalhador ou não) que pode sofrer significativa queda no seu padrão de vida quando da separação, visto que o outro cônjuge era melhor remunerado. A incidência desse tipo de pensão é maior nos casos em que um dos casados (geralmente a mulher) se dedicou exclusivamente ao lar e à família e, por isso, não apresenta renda própria nem independência financeira.

Apesar de a falta do exercício da ação de cobrança das prestações vencidas e não pagas não importar em exoneração automática, tal fato pode ser um forte indício de que o credor não mais apresenta necessidades alimentares, pesando quando da apreciação da lide e da posterior decretação de sentença. Sobre essa questão, vide o HC 187.202.

De acordo com lição de Sílvio Venosa,"não impede o pedido de alimentos o fato de o casal estar habitando sob o mesmo teto, desde que se demonstre que um dos cônjuges não está sendo devidamente suprido pelo outro das necessidades de subsistência, embora esta não seja opinião unânime". A situação, se não é comum, não é cerebrina. Os dramas na convivência conjugal vão muito além dos esquemas jurídicos. Ademais, não é necessária a separação judicial, também, para que se requeiram alimentos. Os separados de fato podem fazê-lo.

Se culpados ambos os cônjuges, não é justo, em princípio, que seja mantido o dever de alimentar. No entanto, como a nova legislação permite a percepção de alimentos necessários até mesmo na hipótese de culpa exclusiva do alimentando, não é de se negar a percepção dos alimentos mínimos nessa hipótese de culpa concorrente. Reitere-se que a insistência do legislador em mencionar culpa na separação conjugal conflita com a doutrina e a tendência das modernas legislações.

Quanto à possibilidade de renúncia ao direito de alimentos por parte do cônjuge, os termos aparentemente peremptórios do art. 1.707 do Código Civil podem não pôr termo à questão. O Projeto nº 6.960 tentou modificar a redação do art. 1.707 para permitir a renúncia dos alimentos entre os cônjuges. Não se confunde, no entanto, a renúncia aos alimentos, que é definitiva, com sua dispensa, que é temporária. Os caminhos jurisprudenciais parecem indicar novamente que a renúncia de alimentos entre ex-cônjuges é peremptória e definitiva. Como está na exposição de motivos do futuro Estatuto das Famílias, a irrenunciabilidade dos alimentos foi limitada ao parentesco, abandonando-se a ideia de valorar a culpa do rompimento das relações afetivas, o que em nada melhora os direitos das famílias.

Assim, embora a legislação não preveja expressamente, é possível a renúncia de alimentos entre adultos (ex-cônjuges ou ex-conviventes),conforme pacificado jurisprudencialmente. Dessa forma, abdica do direito à pensão alimentícia aquele que a renunciar de forma expressa em acordo de separação no qual a divisão de bens é equilibrada e razoável (vide REsp 1.143.762).

Importante ressaltar que, conforme o art. 1694, do Código Civil, o direito de pedir alimentos é recíproco tambem entre os conviventes com base na consagração que o diploma de 2002  deu à figura da União Estável como entidade familiar (art.1723, CC), ante o seu reconhecimento constitucional (art. 226, § 3º, da Constituição Federal). A Lei 9278/96, em seu art. 7º, determina que a assistência material, a título de alimentos, deverá ser prestada por um dos conviventes ao outro que necessitar.

Questão relevante hodiernamente é a obrigação alimentar nas uniões homoafetivas. Os tribunais divergiam quanto ao deferimento de alimentos ao companheiro quando do relacionamento entre pessoas do mesmo sexo. Em 2011, entretanto, com a histórica decisão do STF que reconheceu a união estável homoafetiva (ADI 4.227/DF e ADPF 132, Rel. Min Ayres Britto, 04 e 05.05.2011), restou pacificado o entendimento de que a pensão alimentícia deve ser deferida ao companheiro homoafetivo.

Como se pôde observar, o casamento e a união estável, por si sós, não implicam dever de alimentar. Em qualquer situação, devem ser provados a necessidade e os demais requisitos dessa obrigação. Não há que entender os alimentos como uma singela indenização ao cônjuge inocente. Deve ser afastada essa idéia, ainda defendida por alguns.

No divórcio e na separação consensual, a petição indicará o valor da pensão, bem como poderá indicar garantias para o cumprimento da obrigação. No caso de divórcio decorrente da separação judicial, conforme o art. 26 da Lei do Divórcio, o cônjuge que teve a iniciativa da separação, nos casos dos §§ 1º e 2º do art. 5º, da Lei do Divórcio, continuará com o dever de assistência ao outro.

Quando se trata de conversão em divórcio, na forma consensual, podem os cônjuges manter ou alterar as condições preestabelecidas para os alimentos. Há entendimento de que os alimentos não podem ser requeridos nessa modalidade de divórcio ou após sua decretação, se não estabelecidos anteriormente, porque a obrigação cessa definitivamente com o divórcio e a conseqüente ruptura do vínculo. Em se tratando de conversão litigiosa, o entendimento é no sentido de que não pode ser cumulada com pedido de majoração, redução ou exoneração do dever alimentar. Nessa hipótese, a matéria da contestação é limitada.

Com relação ao filho menor ou incapaz, a prestação de alimentos consiste em fator de grande relevância no tocante à sobrevivência deste, estando, assim, intimamente relacionada com os direitos e garantias fundamentais previstos em Constituição, como o direito à vida e dignidade humana. Com base nisso, a doutrina e a jurisprudência tem se posicionado de forma a conceder aos filhos decorrentes de filiação socioafetiva iguais direitos à prestação. A conceituação de filiação socioafetiva não se esgota no instituto da adoção ou registro do nome dos adotantes no registro de nascimento da criança, mas sim, na posse de estado de filho, ou seja, no vínculo de afeto existente entre a criança e aqueles responsáveis por sua criação. José Bernardo Ramos Boeira conceitua a posse de estado de filho como "uma relação afetiva, íntima e duradoura, caracterizada pela reputação frente a terceiros como se filho fosse, e pelo tratamento existente na relação paterno-filial, em que há o chamamento de filho e a aceitação do chamamento de pai" (BOEIRA apud SENA, 2011). A fixação dos alimentos na situação em tela visa à proteção dos vulneráveis à volatilidade das relações conjugais modernas, de modo que, não pode um dos pais, ao fim do relacionamento, se negar a prestar amparo aos filhos alegando não ser o genitor, como expõe a acadêmica  Suyane Lara Lopes Paes Landim Sena: "reconhecida a filiação socioafetiva decorrente da posse do estado de filho, já que não deve haver discriminação relativa à filiação, todos os filhos, independente de sua origem, devem ser tratados igualmente, sendo cabível ao filho socioafetivo, portanto, tudo aquilo que também cabe às outras espécies de filiação, inclusive, a possibilidade do recebimento de pensão alimentícia pelo pai afetivo" (SENA, 2011).

Pensão de alimentos entre cônjuges em Portugal
A partir da Lei 61/2008, de 31 de Outubro, o tema dos alimentos entre ex-cônjuges sofreu profundas alterações. Doravante, cada um dos ex-cônjuges passa a providenciar o seu próprio sustento. Só em situações excepcionais haverá lugar ao pagamento de uma pensão de alimentos.

Atualmente, o regime é substancialmente diferente. Na verdade, entende-se agora que cada membro do casal deverá prover ao seu próprio sustento, pelo que só existirá lugar ao pagamento de pensão de alimentos à ex-mulher ou ex-marido nalgumas circunstâncias "as situações em que haverá lugar ao pagamento de uma pensão de alimentos ao ex-cônjuge serão relativamente excecionais e prendem-se com a impossibilidade de obtenção de rendimentos por parte de um dos membros do casal, designadamente por motivos de saúde ou idade avançada. Depois, é necessário que o outro cônjuge reúna as condições para pagar a pensão, sendo certo que pensões pagas aos filhos têm prevalência, e que seja razoável, em concreto, impor-lhe tal obrigação"

Como se calcula o valor da pensão de alimentos
"Acresce que, mesmo que haja lugar a uma pensão de alimentos, o respetivo quantitativo não tem já por objeto garantir ao beneficiário o mesmo nível de vida que tinha durante o casamento. Pelo contrário, o montante dos alimentos será apenas o necessário para que o beneficiário possa satisfazer as suas necessidades básicas até encontrar uma ocupação profissional"

O montante da pensão de alimentos é detrminado pelo juiz após ponderação das circunstâncias do obrigado a alimentos e do beneficiário da prestação.

In 1943, the Swiss Alpine Club's magazine Die Alpen reported that they were last used in the winter of 1887/1888, and only two of them were remaining.

DETROIT -- There's no gray area involved when Detroit Tigers manager Sparky Anderson expresses his opinion.
When it comes to the Orioles, especially manager Johnny Oates, Anderson does not hold back the superlatives.
"You could see it in spring training," Anderson said of the vast improvement shown by the Orioles this season. "I said then that Baltimore would be the most improved team this year -- not just in the American League, but in both leagues.
"The Orioles were the one team that had a chance to turn it around," added Anderson, who was impressed with the pitching staff. "That's the big thing, of course, but let me tell you something else . . . "
With that, Anderson launched a large dose of compliments Oates' way. "When you see Oakland the next time, ask Tony [La Russa, A's manager] what I told him," said Anderson. "And when you get to Milwaukee, ask [Brewers owner] Bud Selig what I told him.
"I told Tony, 'You're in for a treat. Do you remember when you were young? I know I remember when I was young -- and we've got another one on our hands.
" 'Johnny Oates is the best young manager I've seen since you came into the league,' " Anderson said of his talk with La Russa.
"I've watched them [the Orioles], and I remember what it used to be like," said Anderson. "He [Oates] showed me he can take a club and put it right into line.
"It's wonderful to have good young pitchers and good young players, but somebody has to make it all come together. . . . Johnny Oates is going to be around a long time. He's a fine man and the best young manager to come around in a long time."
When Anderson's comments were repeated to Oates, the Orioles manager reacted with embarrassment. "Phew," he said, "I hope it's not the kiss of death."
Anderson was one of the first to send Oates a congratulatory letter after he was named manager a little more than a year ago. As the senior manager in the American League, he is also the one Oates sought out for advice on how to handle the hidden problems that come with the job.
Call it a mutual admiration society, but there's obviously a special bond among Anderson, La Russa (whose style has influenced the Orioles manager) and Oates.
And if Anderson is as correct as he says he is, 10 years down the road some young manager will be earning an enthusiastic endorsement from Johnny Oates.

CFO Maridean Eisele (3rd generation of family to run Scenic Fruit) and husband Hugh Eisele, CEO.
Scenic Fruit Company, located near Oregon's majestic Mt. Hood, has been a premier food processor since 1931. They have excelled at providing top quality products and services related to fruit and vegetable processing and want to continue to grow. When it comes to their accounting system however, they were paper-logged and inefficient. They turned to eSoftware Professionals for a solution.
After realizing real benefits from technology — like improved accuracy and reduced production hours — our eyes have been opened to the possibilities for growth!
Scenic Fruit's accounting system had multiple data sources, all with their own piece of paper and process for tracking information. They were wasting time on redundancies and struggling to keep up with variable pricing and grower commissions.
They knew they wanted to grow, which would require streamlining their systems and being able to provide accurate, timely reporting. So they distributed an RFP to expand the usability of their current databases and improve data availability. They released the RFP in November, with the hope of having a new system in place by March 30 – just in time for rhubarb season.
We were a bit naïve on how long the process would take. eSoftware stepped up and told us flat out when they would need our commitment in order to accomplish what we were asking. It made us feel like they had our best interest at heart. Now we have visibility to information right away; if a customer calls, anyone in the office — from sales to production — can help! Now we have visibility to information right away; if a customer calls, anyone in the office — from sales to production — can help!
Of critical importance to the solution was the need for flexibility. While a basic accounting system would result in significant improvements, it was the flexibility of Microsoft Dynamics® NAV™, eFood, and the customizations from eSoftware Professionals that addressed the unique needs of Scenic Fruit. The ultimate solution was one that could grow and change with the business.
By consolidating multiple databases, programs, spreadsheets and islands of information that existed on single computers throughout the plant, Scenic Fruit eliminated redundancies and increased access and visibility to information. From freezer workers to production,payables, receivables, sales and shipping – almost everyone in the company is using the same application. In addition to improved accuracy, customer service has improved – if a customer calls for a Certificate of Analysis, anyone in the office has instant access and can help them immediately.
Scenic Fruit evaluated ten products related to AG and enterprise resource planning (ERP) solutions and received four responses to their RFP; they were specifically looking for a local company with experience in their field.
What we really enjoy is the pride in accuracy and heightened level of interest our employees seem to have in the 'bigger picture' of the business. We were really impressed by their intelligence and genuine interest in our success. The eSoftware Professionals team knows what they're selling, and worked to find the best possible balance between custom and non-custom, to meet our needs. They took the time to get a full grasp of our requirements and really understand our business. They helped us define what was realistic and put a phase-by-phase plan together with clear expectations for each milestone.
eSoftware Professionals has helped companies run their businesses better since 1987. Here is how: by helping them consolidate data from multiple systems, achieve compliance with regulatory bodies, better managing growth, and have better reporting, and forecasting. We use Microsoft Dynamics NAV to accomplish this. NAV, formerly known as Navision, is an ERP system that is scalable, flexible, low-risk, and can be customized for specific business needs.
eSoftware Professionals has offices in three states and is a Microsoft Gold Certified partner. Our team consists of MBAs, CPAs, Professional Engineers, Project Management Professionals (PMP designation), and APICS trained CPIMs with an average tenure of seven years, some surpassing the ten year mark.
