I have previously reviewed Derma E products so if you are looking to learn more about the company and their story head over to my previous post!
I was their Sun Protection Mineral Powder SPF 20 to try out!
"New Derma E Sun Protection Mineral Powder SPF 30 (collaboration with makeup guru and Instagram influencer @iheartmakeupart) This translucent non-nano mineral powder can be worn on its own or over makeup for a natural, flawless look. Reapply every 2 hours for all day sun protection."
I already know that this powder is going to become a summer staple of mine. It comes in an all-in-one kind of packaging which makes it so easy to keep in your purse or beach bag. You don't have to worry about carrying a powder, brush and a mirror every time you want to apply powder. You can just carry this super easy powder/brush combo instead!
Personally, I don't wear foundation anymore and really just use concealer where I need it I then apply a powder to keep my makeup always feeling and looking light. I have been carrying around this Derma E Mineral Powder for touch ups and they could not have made my life any easier! This is powder can be used in so many different ways, you can wear it alone for a nice mattifying effect, wear over moisturizer to keep you nice and moisturized without looking greasy, you can wear it over foundation and keep one in your bag at all times for touch-ups.
It is completely translucent and will work for all skin tones and this stuff never gets cakey! I have honestly never found a powder that never looks cakey by the end of the day, of course, accept this one!

Joseph Ephraim Casely Hayford, MBE (* 29. September 1866 in Cape Coast; † 11. August 1930), war ein ghanaischer Politiker, Rechtsanwalt, Schriftsteller und Panafrikanist.

Leben
Casely Hayford wurde in Cape Coast in der damaligen britischen Kolonie Goldküste geboren; den afrikanischen Namen Ekra Agyiman erhielt er von seinem Vater, einem Reverend aus der Gruppe der Fante; Casely Hayford benutzte ihn aber nur selten.

Nach der Grundausbildung in Cape Coast reiste er nach Sierra Leone, um dort am Fourah Bay College abzuschließen, was ihm jedoch nicht gelang. Er kehrte zurück in die Goldküste, um dort als Lehrer in Cape Coast und Accra zu arbeiten. Währenddessen entdeckte er das Interesse an einem Rechtsstudium und zog 1893 nach England. Er ließ sich in London zum Rechtsanwalt ausbilden und traf hier auf Adelaide Smith, die aus einer kreolischen Elitefamilie stammend ebenfalls nach England gekommen war und die er 1904 in zweiter Ehe heiratete. Ihre gemeinsame Tochter Gladys Casely-Hayford wurde zu einer angesehenen Schriftstellerin in Sierra Leone.

1920 gründete J.E. Casely Hayford den "National Congress of British West Africa" (Nationalkongress von Britisch-Westafrika), welcher jedoch nach seinem Tod 1930 seine Stabilität verlor und bald aufgelöst wurde. Sein Roman Ethiopia Unbound beeinflusste den jamaikanischen Revolutionär und Panafrikanisten Marcus Garvey, welcher wiederum die Rastafaris maßgeblich beeinflusste.

Werke
 With Thoughts upon a Healthy Imperial Policy for the Gold Coast and Ashanti (1903)
 Ethiopia Unbound: Studies in Race Emancipation (1911; wiederaufgelegt 1969)
 The Truth about the West African Land Question (1913)

Transfer Market - Boss Won't Be Rushing Into Things
Town boss Russell Slade is looking to strengthen his squad - but he says that he won't be rushing into things.
Russell Slade
Freeview | Today At Cheapside
Speaking ahead of Saturday's visit of Newport County to BlundellPark, he said: "There's two that have gone already. It was quite heavily loaded when I came here, it's now much less than what it was. We were a good 30-something, and really it needs to be a 20-something, in terms of squad members. A squad of about 24 is ideal.
"Have a little bit more quality if necessary, which is what we need, then that's probably the way I'd like to go."
"There are one or two more possibilities that we're trying to pursue. Whether we get them now or in the summer remains to be seen, because, with one or two that we're chasing, it might be easier to do it that way, but things change on a daily basis in that market.
"I'm still looking at striking options, that's still on my agenda."
On the loan signing of DerbyCounty striker Charles Vernam
He said: "It wasn't so long ago that Charles (Vernam) was the top goalscorer at under-23 level in Europe. He came to Coventry as a young player, he's still only 21, but unfortunately he picked up an injury – popped his shoulder after about 10 days.
"He'd started a game, he'd been sub as well a couple of times, so he'd had a few appearances, so he didn't really get going there because of that injury.
"But I kept track on him, he's a very clever player, finds little pockets, he's technically sound, and he's got a good shot as well with both feet.
"That's his job, to score. Can he transfer that to first-team level, and I'm sure he can – I'm confident that he can.
"It is a big step, but sooner or later you've got to make that leap, and it could be the making of him."
The Town boss is hoping that his side can improve in front of goal, ahead of that Sky Bet League Two clash with County.
Town are winless in six, having scored just once during that period of time, and Slade hopes his men can improve in the final third this weekend.
Speaking on iFollow Mariners, he said: "Our problems have been in front of the goal in the final third, because when we've dominated parts of the game, we've been unable to unlock at that end of the pitch, so that's something that we need to work on tirelessly, so we can get some momentum.
"We just need that break in front of goal. Our record in those six games in front of goal is poor, and that's what we've got to try and do something about as quickly as we can.
"Results have been not what any of us desired or wanted, and it's hurt us. But, in terms of performance, we've been in a couple of those games, even though we've not started well at Crewe, for example, we were on top for much of the second-half, without finding a way through."
On Town's current form
Slade said: "We haven't (won in six) and it is really frustrating, particularly the last three games. We came out of a very busy Christmas period against the top teams, with a lot of credit in many ways without getting the results.
"But the last three have been really frustrating – we need a response to that. We've got a good group, by and large, here that are capable of responding.
"I didn't get over-excited when we won three on the bounce, we've lost three on the bounce now, and we're capable of changing it around."
On Saturday's clash with County
"They'll be coming here very happy, very confident," he said. They do the basics well, they're organised in what they do, and they'll be a difficult nut to crack because they're a physical side.
"Big, physical side, threats going forward, and they've scored a lot goals from set plays – they've scored 24 from 46 goals, so that gives you an indication of how physical they are.
"But it's what we do – an awful lot of it on Saturday is how we perform.
"You take Luton out of the equation, and there's not a lot between the teams in the whole of the league, it's a really fine line.
"Everybody's capable of beating each other, and it's an opportunity to go and get three points."
On Wednesday's statement from the board, backing boss Russell Slade and assistant manager Paul Wilkinson
Slade continued: "It's pleasing because all too often these days, whether it's owners or it's fans, we don't want to build a football club often enough.
"But when you look at the examples of where managers have been given time to build football clubs, you very often find there's success.
"Luton have had four or five windows with their manager, they've got a substantial budget for this league and they're now reaping the benefits.
"So those clubs that have been prepared to build over recent years, they've got their rewards. And I think I'm more of a builder than what I am a quick fix."
On the departures of midfielder Jamey Osborne and winger Tom Bolarinwa to National League sides Solihull Moors and Sutton United, respectively.
"Jamey wanted to leave, he wanted to be back home where he was 10 minutes away from his local football club," Slade said.
"And as much as we wanted him to stay here, if his heart's not here and if the travelling was too much then as a footballer, you have to make sacrifices and if you're not prepared to make them then maybe that's the right decision he's made.
"Tom was pretty much an impact player here. He could come off the bench and was very strong at times, but again he wanted to be in the south for personal reasons.
"And he's been in-and-out of the Sutton side – he's not nailed down a regular spot over recent weeks, so maybe that was the best decision for him to start again really."
Winger Siriki Dembele is a doubt for Saturday's game, after picking up a slight back injury in last weekend's defeat to Morecambe.

/ UNRWA condemns Israel's demolition of Salhiah family home in Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood
Apple users urged to protect devices from Israel's 'mercenary' spyware firm
September 14, 2021 at 12:44 pm | Published in: Asia & Americas, Israel, Middle East, News, US
Mobile phone, 6 September 2016 [Flickr]
Users of Apple products, including mobile telephones, tablets, and watches, have been urged to update their devices to protect them from Israel's "mercenary" spyware company, the notorious NSO Group. The warning was issued yesterday by CitizenLab a day before Apple is expected to release its latest phone model.
CitizenLab is an interdisciplinary body at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Affairs at the University of Toronto in Canada. It issued the advice following the discovery of a vulnerability while analysing a phone belonging to a Saudi Arabian activist whose device had been infected with the NSO Group's Pegasus spyware.
Israel's Pegasus spyware global weapon to silence critics? – Cartoon [Sabaaneh/MiddleEastMonitor]
"We discovered a zero-day zero-click exploit against iMessage," said CitizenLab in its report. "The exploit, which we call FORCEDENTRY, targets Apple's image rendering library, and was effective against Apple iOS, MacOS and WatchOS devices." In effect, this means that all Apple devices are vulnerable to hacking by the Israeli firm.
"We determined that the mercenary spyware company NSO Group used the vulnerability to remotely exploit and infect the latest Apple devices with the Pegasus spyware," explained CitizenLab. It warned that the newly-discovered vulnerability has been exploited since at least February this year.
Apple has been alerted about FORCEDENTRY targeting its products. The tech giant has released an update to solve the problem. "We urge readers to update all Apple devices immediately," said CitizenLab.
In its denunciation of the Israeli firm, it added that the "NSO Group are facilitating 'despotism-as-a-service' for unaccountable government security agencies" and called for greater regulation.
READ: Police in Germany bought Israel's Pegasus spyware despite concerns over use
The warning to all Apple users comes just over a month after the discovery of one of the biggest global hacking scandals involving the Israeli firm. As many as 50,000 phone numbers were said to have been selected for surveillance using Israeli technology, according to the Pegasus Project, the investigation which uncovered the hacking. This is a groundbreaking collaboration by more than 80 journalists from 17 media organisations in ten countries. The group's work was co-ordinated by Forbidden Stories, a Paris-based non-profit media organisation, and Amnesty International.
Concerns were raised about the NSO Group following the murder of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the Saudi Arabian Consulate in Istanbul. The brutal killing of the 59-year-old in 2018 left a trail of evidence, including details of how the Saudi government used the Israeli spyware to target people close to him.

I found Ashley at a SITS Girls link-up, and I followed her blog right away because I loved her tone and humor. I later participated in one of her blogger swaps, and it was so much fun! I totally recommend you guys check out the next one.
I don't think of myself as a niche blogger, but I focus on fashion and lifestyle. I like to blog about topics that interest me, so in any given week, I might review a book, share an outfit, and post some of my favorite links from around the web.
Do you take your own photos and/or use stock photos in your posts? What tools do you use to edit?
My outfit photos are taken by my mom, who studied photojournalism. Most product pics I take myself, but I've, also, started using free stock photos from Pixabay. Canva and PicMonkey are my go-tos for photo editing.
What is your favorite social media for blog promotion?
This year I've focused on using Twitter for blog promotion, but while I've gained followers, I haven't seen a lot of blog traffic from Twitter. StumbleUpon can be hit and miss for blog promotion, but it has boosted some of my posts.
Have you purchased any blogging classes/courses?
I haven't taken any blogging courses. There is so much free information online that I haven't felt the need to take a course. I've rounded up some of my favorite blogging articles here.
I think pop-ups are annoying, so I try not to use them.
Are you a full-time blogger or do you have a "day job"?
I feel like I blog full-time because I'm always on my computer, but I don't make a living from my blog. I've been blogging consistently since 2009, and my blog is definitely a passion project. I'm a professional actor, but I don't think of that as my day job because it doesn't feel like a job. In many ways, acting and blogging go hand in hand because they are different ways of storytelling. If you ever feel stuck in your head, take an improv class. It's an awesome way to learn how to think on your feet!
Besides blogging (and acting), do you have any other endeavors or side hustles we should look for?
I'm obsessed with jewelry. My goal in life is to have a jewelry collection that rivals Elizabeth Taylor's… Until that happens, I'm content being a Chloe + Isabel Merchandiser. There are so many fabulous pieces to choose from! You can check out my boutique here and see what I mean.

Coast to Coast AM with George Noory
Video: Massive Mystery Blast Leaves Behind Huge Crater on New York Island
Photo: Suffolk County Police Department
Authorities in New York are investigating a curious case wherein a massive blast created a huge crater on the beach of an uninhabited island. The odd mystery reportedly began on Sunday morning when people living in the southern part of Long Island heard and felt an enormous blast. As is often happens with such events, concerned residents flooded their local police station with calls and social media lit up with people wondering what had just happened. However, in this instance, questions surrounding where the inexplicable boom could have come from were quickly answered as cops managed to determine its origin.

El Castillo, a Historic Site at the Rio San Juan in Nicaragua.
El Castillo is a small community right on the south banks of the San Juan River. It is very close to the border with Costa Rica (3 kilometers) and about 55 kilometers from San Carlos. The only way to get to El Castillo is by boat. From San Carlos, it is 55 Kilometers down river. From San Juan de Nicaragua, 145 kilometers up river. There are no roads leading to the town.
The community of El Castillo as seen arriving along the San Juan River. You can see the fortress on the hill top.
The community sprung up around the fortress of La Inmaculada Concepcion de Maria. In English, "The Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary". This fortress built in 1675 by the Spanish crown in a strategic location was meant to protect the city of Granada. British pirates savagely attacked and looted Granada several times. The fortress is strategically built on a hill top right in front of the strongest currents in the river, which forced ships to slow down and were therefore more vulnerable to an attack from the fortress.
Getting to El Castillo:
This dock is the arrival and departure point for all travelers to El Castillo
There is regular boat service, which operates as public transportation between San Carlos and El Castillo with two distinct classes of service. You have the regular service, which takes about 3 hours and the fast boat, which takes fewer passengers and takes half the time. In both cases, the boat makes a quick stop at the community of Boca de Sabalos, where passengers get off and on before the trip continues. During the route, both services may stop and pick up or drop off persons on the river bank, depending on the space they have on board. The fast boat service costs approximately 200 Cordobas.
During the gold rush days, the Transit Company, owned by Cornelius Vanderbilt had regular stops at El Castillo. There, the steamships had to be unloaded, to have the cargo and passengers moved up river about half a mile before the could be put on board again. The steam boat would then be lighter and could deal with the rapids in a safer, more efficient manner. This commercial activity helped develop the town and increased its population.
Today, El Castillo is a popular tourist destination. It has basic, but comfortable and functional hotel, restaurant and tour services. Travelers here come to see the fortress, do fishing and explore the Indio Maiz Biosphere reserve. They also get to discover a unique quaint little town where cars and motorcycles do not exist. The only means of transportation are the boats that come and go. The town is peaceful, extremely safe and very pleasant. Its inhabitants are very good hosts and you will feel comfortable here. Internet service is limited, but there is decent phone service and of course electricity. There are no banks and no ATM machines, so do not expect to get cash from one. Only a few businesses will accept a credit card.

CD/DVD Tools
AnyDVD
Hardware layer for DVD decryption.
AnyDVD info, screenshots & reviewsAlternatives to AnyDVD
What is AnyDVD?
AnyDVD works in your computer's background to automatically remove the copy protection off a DVD movie, allowing you to rip the DVD onto your computer. You can also remove the RPC region code, thereby making the movie playable anywhere. AnyDVD also decrypts protected audio CDs, HD DVDs, and Blu-ray Discs (the latter two with AnyDVD HD).
Additionally, AnyDVD can remove unwanted movie features, including subtitles and prohibition messages such as copyright and FBI warnings.
Decryption is not all that AnyDVD offers. You can control the drive speed of your DVD drive, allowing you to reduce the noise level. You can even adjust the display frequency of your monitor.
Region clipping
Remove DRM Protection
AnyDVD HD works. Rarely is it almost sufficient to know that much about a software.
I own many relatively obscure commercial Blu-rays, but also sometimes want to watch rather new ones. Both of those properties can be a problem when trying to watch them on a PC the usual way, using a key database, because often the keys for those discs won't have been shared yet. I don't know how it does what it does, but simply having AnyDVD HD running in the background, so far I didn't encounter a single Blu-ray I couldn't watch, using the software I want (including MPC-HC and VLC).
It includes a friendly settings panel that lets you configure which of the customisations you'd like to have enabled. Apart from decryption of commercial DVDs and Blu-rays, it also supports removing regional restrictions, ignoring user restrictions (such as allowing you to turn off forced subtitles or skip titles marked as non-skippable), skipping logos and disclaimers, customising subtitles and more. It also offers certain features for HD DVDs and audio CDs.
But the main feature is, of course, that it lets you watch the darn movies you paid for. I can't believe that I even still have to say this in 2019. But the movie industry, for some reason, still think it somehow serves their purpose if they specifically and deliberately punish the few remaning people that are still stupid enough to pay for officially licensed copies of their products. I think even the octogenarian "computer-whatamajig?" executives of those companies could have understood by now that the only people not driven mad by all this DRM, regions, limitations and encryption nonsense, are those who decide to download the illegal, unlicensed copies instead. Which – let's just state the fact – exist for every single Blu-ray ever released, because none of these "copy protection" measures has ever worked, nor will it ever. The illegal copy, therefore, is both cleaner and of higher quality than the official one, while being free.
It takes a considerable amount of engineering, and most of all stupidity, to somehow manage to push the value of your product to be even lower than the free illegal copy of it, but somehow, the movie industry has managed just that. Nothing makes you want to spend $30 on a Blu-ray, containing files that are identical to the ones floating around P2P file sharing networks, more than knowing that you'll get the infinitely inferior version – not because of technical reasons, but because the licensor decided it should be that way. (And hey, even if the illegal copy wasn't so great – at least the people who downloaded it aren't out $30!)
Shame on me for still caring about recompensing the creators, I guess? At least that's the message I hear loud and clear from studios and distributors. Their answer, of course, is: use our legal streaming and download services instead. Of course. The places I get to pay (usually) the same amount of money for a copy with significantly reduced video and audio quality, while having to deal with even more DRM nonsense designed to make what I just paid for worthless (say hello to movies that you can't watch on the go, on your other computer, when your network is out, or simply five years down the line when the service shuts down).
Another reason I like AnyDVD? Their fair licensing. That should be self-evident for a company whose products are dedicated to protecting consumer rights, but it's still worth pointing out. You get a full-featured 21-day trial, tied to your machine. But if you decide to buy a license, it won't be tied to a specific computer, nor require online activation. It's true, old-school, buy-to-own software that comes with reasonable confidence that you'll be able to keep using it. You don't have to buy a second license just because your old computer died, or you also want to watch a movie on your laptop for once. But you might want to, just to support the developers and their cause.
So, when you want to watch your legally purchased movies on your computer, and it comes to the decision: do you want to support these anti-consumer practices, designed to &%#ç you over, by purchasing one of the "official" software players? Or would you rather give that money to a developer that is actually on your side, and wants to allow you to watch the discs you paid for without restrictions? The answer should be clear.

I needed a solution to play DVD's on my PC without needing to buy a clunky DVD player software like PowerDVD or some other trialware crap. This also offered the solution to skip the annoying trailers and adverts and jump straight to the main DVD title. I could pop in a movie and be watching the opening in seconds, in my favorite media player!
Now US corporate scumbags feel the misuse of this software was the creator's fault, and shut him down.

After looking around a bit, I've decided on the two best FREE alternatives to AnyDVD (which is apparently as expensive as Microsoft Office... geez). MakeMKV and DVD Fab both offer Blu-ray decrypting, and the features cost no money. Try those first.
After MakeMKV has left the beta stage, it became paid Shareware. It still decrypts DVDs for free forever, but the Blu-ray features require registration after 30 days. The fee is $60.
DVDFab's free version, Passkey Lite, says it only supports certain older methods of Blu-ray encryption. The list is on the website, but I didn't try it out personally so I don't know how big of a limitation it is in practice. The website certainly implies that you'll need to purchase a license for many newer discs. The price seems to be the same as for AnyDVD HD (€109).

The cost of upgrading to the HD version sends the cumulative cost to around $100, so the price of this software is really steep. However, it seems to be one of the few methods available for ripping Blu-ray discs, so if you really want to do that, this might be your only option.
Also, it's important to note that even once you rip a Blu-ray with this, it will still probably be unplayable on most media players. You'll have to use Ripbot264 or a similar software to transcode it.

Bring people, conversations & content together to achieve more
To be competitive, firms are increasingly finding that they have to get their people working together more often and more deeply. Without question, people still do valuable work on their own, but no one person has the answer alone. By combining the collective wisdom of the group (and doing so quickly), you can compete and win.
Teamwork & Collaboration - it's How Work Gets Done
Teamwork is how work gets done. Today, people who work as teams are more likely to be high performers: working faster, iterating quicker, & accomplishing more.
Intelligently Discover, Share, & Collaborate on Content from Anywhere & on Any Device
Connected and seamless experiences enable sharing and discovery across applications. The real value of collaboration comes to life only when it's integrated with the tools people use to communicate, create and collaborate such as Microsoft Office and SharePoint.
Content & Creativity are at the Center of Every Team
Of course content and creativity is at the center of every team – the very reason teams come together to connect, whether it is collaboration on a new product strategy, a sales presentation or a key company initiative. Teams need a tool that keeps content at the center of teamwork, making files, sites and content easily shareable and accessible across teams and organizations.
Let's Empower Your Team to Transform Your Business
Let Paragon9 help you empower team collaboration, successfully work from anywhere, and put content and creativity at the center of your teams.

Asante Announces Update Regarding Acquisition of The Chirano Gold Mine
ASANTE ANNOUNCES UPDATE REGARDING ACQUISITIONOF THE CHIRANO GOLD MINE
Vancouver, British Columbia, June 1, 2022 – Asante Gold Corporation (CSE:ASE | FRANKFURT:1A9 | U.S.OTC:ASGOF) ("Asante" or the "Company") announces that the closing of its previously-announced acquisition (the "Chirano Acquisition") of the Chirano Gold Mine (the "Chirano Gold Mine") has been temporarily delayed pending resolution of certain outstanding administrative matters. Following resolution and completion of such matters, the Company expects to proceed to closing of the Chirano Acquisition. All material terms of the Chirano Acquisition remain the same.
The Chirano Gold Mine is an operating open-pit and underground mining operation located in southwestern Ghana, immediately south of the Company's Bibiani Gold Mine. The Chirano Gold Mine was first explored and developed in 1996 and began production in October 2005. The Chirano Gold Mine comprises the Akwaaba, Suraw, Akoti South, Akoti North, Akoti Extended, Paboase, Tano, Obra South, Obra, Sariehu and Mamnao open pits and the Akwaaba and Paboase underground mines.
Asante is a gold exploration, project development and operations company with a high-quality portfolio of projects in Ghana, Africa's largest and most reliable gold producer. Asante is currently focused on completing the purchase of the Chirano Gold Mine previously announced on April 25, 2022 and developing
to production its Bibiani and Kubi Gold mines located on the prolific Bibiani and Ashanti Gold Belts. Asante has an experienced and skilled team of mine finders, builders and operators. Asante is listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange and Frankfurt Stock Exchange and has announced plans to co-list its shares in Ghana. Asante is also exploring its Keyhole, Fahiakoba and Betenase projects for new discoveries, all adjoining or along strike of major gold mines near the centre of Ghana's Golden Triangle. Additional information is available on our web site at www.asantegold.com.
Bibiani is a historically significant gold mine situated in the western region of Ghana, with previous gold production close to 5 Moz. It is fully permitted with available mining and processing infrastructure on-site consisting of a 3 million tonne per annum mill and processing plant, and existing surface and mining
infrastructure. Mining commenced in late February and first gold production is on track for Q3 2022. The Current Mineral Resource Estimate for Bibiani, effective as of November 7, 2021, as set out in the Technical Report titled "Technical Report on the Bibiani Gold Mine, Ghana", prepared by Ian M. Glacken (FAusIMM (CP), FAIG, CEng) of Optiro Pty Limited and assisted by Dan Bansah (MSc, MAusIMM (CP), FWAIMM, MGIG) of Minecon Resources and Services Ltd. as Qualified Person and filed on SEDAR, is Measured and Indicated for the Bibiani main pit and the Satellite pits at 20.8 million tonnes at 2.71 grams
of gold per tonne for 1.81 Moz of gold; and Inferred 8.41 million tonnes at 2.78 grams of gold per tonne for 0.753 Moz of gold. The Mineral Resource has been reported above a 0.65 g/t gold cut-off and has been depleted for both historical open pit and underground development as of August 31, 2017. The Technical Report was prepared using accepted industry practices in accordance with the JORC Code (JORC, 2012).
There are no material differences between the definitions of Measured, Indicated and Inferred Mineral Resources under the CIM Definition Standards and the equivalent definitions in the JORC Code. The Satellite pit resource is an update completed in 2018 by Resolute Mining Limited, the former owner of the
Bibiani Gold Mine. The Satellite pit resource is also reported above a cut-off grade of 0.65 g/t gold inside a pit shell defined at a gold price of US$1,950. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

Khartoum, Sudan
Khartoum G.E.M.S > About Us
We know that one of the most important decisions that a parent makes on behalf of their child is the decision about which school to send them to. There are few things which are likely to have more impact on a young person's future than the quality of the school they attend. So we work hard to ensure that everyone who sends their child to the DAMS is happy with that choice. It is our belief that every child deserves the very best start in life and we make it our purpose to provide just that to all the children who enter our doors. We endeavour to provide the best possible teaching and curriculum; we want your child to make progress and achieve the very best they can; but most of all we want the children at DAMSto be happy and enjoy their life with us.
Established back in 2002,DAMS has a tradition of quality. The school was founded on the principles of developing and challenging the whole individual – 'head, hand & heart' – producing students with high aspirations and confident independence.
We pride ourselves on the fostering of strong values: mutual understanding, respect for others and high personal endeavour form part of our students' everyday lives. Being part of the DAMS is about more than school work though. We try to offer our students a treasure chest of worthwhile and exciting experiences which they can carry with them for the rest of their lives.
We provide a warm welcome and ongoing support for all new families who join us and do all that we can to help both parents and pupils settle in.
Above all we are proud of our students and what they achieve, and share with them a pride in our school. We are a happy learning community, where learning is enjoyed and valued. We believe that we offer one of the best educational experiences in Sudan. I hope that looking through this site – and taking a look at the video here – you will start to believe it too.
Our year group structure
The British System is organised in year groups, these year groups are then arranged into 'key stages' which go together to make up the structure of the curriculum.
We work on August 1st as the key entry date for each school year. It is the age of a child on this date that determines the year group to which they belong.
We have developed this Year Group / Age Comparisson Chart, for a number of other school systems around the world, to help parents understand the British System against groupings they are more familiar with.
3-4 Year olds Kindergarten 1 (KG 1) Early Years/ Foundation Stage
5-6 year olds Year 1 Key Stage 1 (KS1)
9-10 year olds Year 5 Key Stage 2 (KS2)
10-11 year olds Year 6 Key Stage 2 (KS2)
Our educational programme
British education has a worldwide reputation for quality. At DAMS we follow the British system, delivered by over 30,000 schools in the UK and overseas.
Our junior schools start with the Foundation Stage (Kindergarten 1 & Kindergarten 2)and progress through Key Stages 1( Reception, year 1 and 2) and Key Stage 2 ( year 3,4,5 and 6) until children move on the our Senior School( year 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11). Here, specialist teaching in Key Stages 3 and 4 develops deeper knowledge and understanding across the arts, humanities, languages and sciences.
At age 16 (Year 11) students sit their IGCSE's (International General Certificate of Education). This series of examinations usually covers 7-10 subjects which have been selected by the students, in consultation with parents and staff, some two years earlier.
The DAMS has a number of official policies and procedures which are applicable across all school sites.
Our key policies (such as school rules) are available at the bottom of the page and the following documents are available to prospective DAMS parents on request:
School Absence & Attendance Policy
Policy and Arrangements for Admissions, Discipline and Exclusions
Education and Welfare Provision for Pupils with Statements and Pupils for whom English is an Additional Language
Curriculum Policy
Policy for Health and Safety on School Visits
Rewards and Sanctions Policy
Academic Performance in the previous school year
Complaints Procedure / Number of formal complaints in the previous school year
Staff, including Temporary Staff, and Qualifications

Significant Scots
Thomas Alexander Erskine
ERSKINE, THOMAS ALEXANDER, sixth earl of Kellie, a distinguished musical genius, was born on September 1st, 1732. He was the eldest son of Alexander, fifth earl of Kellie, by Janet Pitcairn, daughter of the celebrated physician and poet. The earls of Kellie were a branch of the Marr family, ennobled through the favour of James VI. and I., which was acquired by the services of Sir Thomas Erskine of Gogar, in protecting his majesty from the machinations of the earl of Gowry and his brother. The father of the subject of this memoir, though possessed of a kind of rude wit, was always deemed a person of imperfect intellect, of which he seems to have been himself aware. Being confined in Edinburgh castle for his concern in the insurrection of 1745, he one morning came into the room occupied by his brethren in misfortune, showing a paper in his hand. This was a list of persons whom the government had resolved to prosecute no further, and while his lordship's name stood at the head, on account of his rank, it was closed by the name of a Mr William Fidler, who had been an auditor in the Scottish exchequer. "Oh, is not this a wise government?" cried the earl, "to begin wi' a fule and end wi' a fiddler!" On his lordship's death, in 1756, he was succeeded by his eldest son, who seems to have inherited the wit of his father, along with the more brilliant genius of his mother's family.
The earl of Kellie displayed, at an early period of life, a considerable share of ability; and it was anticipated that he would distinguish himself in some public employment worthy of his exalted rank. He was led, however, by an overmastering propensity to music, to devote himself almost exclusively to that art. We are informed by Dr Burney, in his History of Music, that "the earl of Kellie, who was possessed of more musical science than any dilletante with whom I was ever acquainted, and who, according to Pinto, before he travelled into Germany, could scarcely tune his fiddle, shut himself up at Manheim with the elder Stamitz, and studied composition, and practised the violin with such serious application, that, at his return to England, there was no part of theoretical or practical music, in which he was not equally well versed with the greatest professors of his time. Indeed, he had a strength of hand on the violin, and a genius for composition, with which few professors are gifted." In the age during which the earl of Kellie flourished, it was unfortunately deemed an almost indispensible mark of a man of genius, either in literature or music, to devote himself much to the service of Bacchus. Hence this young nobleman, whose talents might have adorned almost any walk of life, identified himself with the dissolute fraternity who haunted the British metropolis, and of whom there was a considerable off-shoot even in Edinburgh. Thus he spent, in low buffooneries and debaucheries, time which might have been employed to the general advantage of his country. He, nevertheless, composed a considerable quantity of music, which, in its day, enjoyed a high degree of celebrity, though it is generally deemed, in the present age, to be deficient in taste and feeling. "In his works," says a late writer, "the fervidum ingenium of his country bursts forth, and elegance is mingled with fire. From the singular ardour and impetuosity of his temperament, joined to his German education, under the celebrated Stamitz, and at a time when the German overture, or symphony, consisting of a grand chorus of violins and wind instruments, was in its highest vogue, this great composer has employed himself chiefly in symphonies, but in a style peculiar to himself. While others please and amuse, it is his province to rouse and almost overset his hearer. Loudness, rapidity, enthusiasm, announced the earl of Kellie. His harmonies are acknowledged to be accurate and ingenious, admirably calculated for the effect in view, and discovering a thorough knowledge of music. From some specimens, it appears that his talents were not confined to a single style, which has made his admirers regret that he did not apply himself to a greater variety of subjects. He s said to have composed only one song, but that an excellent one. What appears singularly peculiar in this musician, is what may be called the velocity of his talents, by which he composed whole pieces of the most excellent music in one night. Part of his works are still unpublished, and not a little is probably lost. Being always remarkably fond of a concert of wind instruments, whenever he met with a good band of them, he was seized with a fit of composition, and wrote pieces in the moment, which he gave away to the performers, and never saw again; and these, in his own judgment, were the best he ever composed."
Having much impaired his constitution by hard living, the earl of Kellie visited Spa, from which he was returning to England, when he was struck with a paralytic shock upon the road. Being advised to stop a few days at Brussels, he was attacked by a putrid fever, of which he died at that city, on the 9th of October, 1781, in the fifty-first year of his age.

Windsor (also known as New Windsor) and Maidenhead are both towns on the the river Thames in southeast England, just to the west of London. They form part of the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. This was formed in 1974, initially as a local government district of the county of Berkshire, on the merger of a number of local authorities including the Royal Borough of New Windsor, the municipal borough of Maidenhead and parts of the urban district of Eton (which had been in Buckinghamshire). In 1998, the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead became a unitary authority, when Berkshire lost its administrative status becoming purely a ceremonial county.
Slough, a town just to the north of Windsor, is about 20 miles west of London. It was a municipal borough in the county of Buckinghamshire until 1974, when it was transferred to the county of Berkshire, of which it became a local government district. In 1998, the Borough of Slough became a unitary authority, when Berkshire lost its administrative status becoming purely a ceremonial county.
The Jewish communities in all three towns was originally formed by evacuees from London during the Second World War.
Slough during the 1830s (1 record), 1860s (1 record), 1870s (5 records), 1880s (2 records), 1890s (1 record) and 1900s (1 record).

The Robin Jung/ Rob Levit Folk Jazz Fusion, aka FJF, was founded two years ago during a casual Indian dinner with friends. Dr. Robin Jung, top biologist and frog expert with the USGS, broached the topic of musical collaboration with guitarist and composer Rob Levit. The next day they got together to jam and before long were cranking out memorable tunes combining their love of folk, jazz, world, and classical idioms.
Robin has long been a fixture as a back-up singer in several of the Annapolis area's most popular bands but it took Rob to realize that her crystal clear, introspective, soulful voice should be upfront surrounded by subtle accompaniment. Within a few months, the FJF was up and running, performing both as a duo and as a quartet with bassists Mark Shatz (now with Nickel Creek) or Max Murray, and drummer Frank Russo.
Since the inception of the FJF, they have performed monthly at 49 WEST in Annapolis to a packed house, obtained bookings at Blues Alley, Tawes Garden, Andy's in Chestertown, and the 333 Coffeehouse. They are thrilled to have the opportunity to bring their music to Fredericksburg.
Guitarist Rob Levit, leader of the FJF, has been described as "musical greatness" by Last Train Home vocalist and Washington Post writer Eric Brace. He is a five-time consecutive recipient of the Maryland State Arts Council Individual Artist Award and numerous other awards and grants. He is currently Artist-In-Residence at Maryland Hall for the Creative Arts.
The FJF's debut CD has received national airplay and has been reviewed several prominent publications. Their unique brand of jazz, folk, poetic lyrics, and dynamic interplay makes for both an exciting yet intimate performance.


Steve Maxwell's home improvement and home maintenance column on what home improvement is all about.
For those of us who love to build, renovate and improve our homes, success should be about more than just gaining a reliable place of shelter. A good house should also thrill and energize the people who live in our homes now, as well as those who come along after we're gone.
I call this "the legacy perspective", and there are three ways you can get intentional about making it happen in your home and life.
Everything you create in life is only half the story. The other half is you. That's why great homes always bear the mark of the maker.
I first discovered this principle as a boy, when my grandfather entrusted me with a small metal stamp. It was owned by his father — my great grandfather — a cabinetmaker who came to Canada from England in 1902. All his chisels and planes bear the same small impression on the wooden handles made by this stamp: R Maxwell. His surviving woodwork still carries this same mark, too.
I keep the stamp in a drawer in my workshop and use it wherever I can. Good craftsmanship is a kind of time machine that lets others look back and see what we've done.
That's why it makes sense to leave your mark in some way. Write a note on the back of a piece of trim you install, carve your initials and the date into the back of a cabinet you build, or keep a dated journal book about your life and work with your home.
Whenever I build something, I mean it to be a statement against a sad reality of our world. The common idea that it's OK if cheap, throwaway home renovations only last five or 10 years steals too much joy.
It's a shame that so many home features deliver short-lived, superficial beauty. That's why I rail against the trend of home improvement novelty with outrageous acts of craftsmanship whenever I can afford to create them. Have you ever thought of giving this a try?
If you came to my place for a visit, I'd show you free-standing, solid wood wardrobes made with fully finished backs because that's more honest than an ugly, pressboard back. Honesty is also why I've learned to carve cabinet details and why I love to build traditional stonework.
Some people might consider my timber frame clothesline post a silly waste of time, but why wouldn't anyone not want to invest in something that gives you a thrill every time you see and use it?
What is home improvement really about?
Why do you want to improve your home? I suspect what drives you is far deeper than you realize. There's always something bigger behind everything we do.
Some of us were born to be makers, and I've come to realize that the force that drives us is a deep, inner longing for a version of the world as it should be, not as it is. It's a longing towards the ultimate source of beauty, peace and permanence.
While our world is rarely as beautiful as it should be, far less peaceful that it might be, and disappointingly impermanent in so many ways, I don't believe this is what we were made for. The urge to make beauty happen in our homes is one small way we can bring our corner of the world a little closer to a place where beauty, peace and permanence reins as it should.
I don't suppose my personal efforts will do much good in the larger scheme of things, but I'm going to do it anyway. Have I convinced you of anything here? I hope so. Let me know.

In TYPO3, we're taking testing serious: When the core team releases a new TYPO3 version, they want to make sure it does not come with evil regressions (things that worked and stop working after update). This is especially true for patch level releases. There are various measures to ensure the system does not break: The patch review process is one, testing is another important part and there is more. With the high flexibility of the system it's hard to test "everything" manually, though. The TYPO3 core thus has a long history of automatic testing - some important steps are outlined in a dedicated chapter below.
With the continued improvements in this area an own testing framework has been established over the years that is not only used by the TYPO3 core, but can be used by extension developers or entire TYPO3 projects as well.
This chapter goes into details about automatic testing: Writing, maintaining and running them in various scopes. Have fun.

Rhinophyma (also known as bulbous nose) is characterized by an enlarged nose and prominent pores. Rhinophyma is linked to rosacea, a skin disorder. The overgrowth of soft nasal tissue and increased blood flow can cause physical discomfort in addition to aesthetic concerns. Under the exceptional care of Cutis Cosmetic Facial Surgeon Dr. Ron Lemckert, ENT, our patients are treated to all the latest techniques and applications in nasal rejuvenation. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Lemckert to learn more about your nasal treatment options.
As a cosmetic surgery centre, Cutis is equipped in providing the highest level of care and safety to our patients. During a consultation with Cutis Cosmetic Facial Surgeon, Dr. Ron Lemckert, ENT, a general health assessment will be made to ensure treatment suitability. The treatment can be performed under local or general anesthetic and can last between one to three hours depending on the size of the rhinophyma.. Our highly trained professionals take every safeguard to ensure our patients are fully informed and prepared for both pre and post-treatment care.
Recovery time for rhinophyma varies. A moderate amount of swelling, bruising and redness is to be expected. Effective pain management will be discussed and prescribed prior to treatment. Bandages will be applied immediately following treatment and will require replacement for one week following treatment. The participation in regular activities, including work, should be suspended for one week, with strenuous activity suspended until week three.
Laser intervention or radiofrequency ablation are the preferred treatment methods for rhinophyma (bulbous nose). The CO2 Laser or Ellman Pelleve radiofrequency surgical unit are used to excise the lesion and sculpt the nasal tip. With proper post surgery care the skin regenerates from the sebaceous glands on the nasal tip..

Unlike John Melling I do not welcome the new summer timetable. Previously all trains from Wick or Kyle to Inverness had connections for Glasgow and Edinburgh, but now the last train from Wick to Edinburgh is the 1210. The 2013 from Inverness to Glasgow still connects with the 1616 from Wick and the 1718 from Kyle but it arrives in Stirling at 2306 and the last train from Stirling to Edinburgh is at 2303. As a result of this incredibly bad scheduling the last train from Wick to Edinburgh is the 1210.
I am absolutely disgusted with the fare structure on the seating accommodation on the night trains. It costs more to travel from Inverness (or Stirling for that matter) to Blackpool or Liverpool or Manchester Airport than it costs to London! And the fare from Edinburgh or Glasgow to London is less than the fare from Inverness or Stirling to Preston or Crewe! It is time we had a much better fare structure for travel between northern Scotland and northern England.
Finally, passengers travelling from Inverness to Glasgow on a Sunday morning have to wait an hour for a connection at Stirling. Previously, one could get a good connection for Glasgow by changing at Falkirk Grahamston. But there are no longer any Sunday trains from Falkirk Grahamston to Glasgow so an unacceptably long wait at Stirling is necessary.


Loved the design and personalization made it even better.
I am decorating with these type of décor with the Red Truck. We have a 1949 yellow truck, I thought this type of decoration would be nice.
Liked the design and personalized option.
The items that I picked fit the way I feel toward the Christmas Holiday Season. The quality of the items are great. Miles Kimball have always been a part of my Christmas tradition. I receive compliments from my family and friends each year.

Interpretation of Sura al-Fatir - Verse 31
31."And that which We have revealed to you of the Book, it is the truth verifying that which is before it, verily Allah, about His servants, is Aware, Seeing."
In Qur'a-n there is not any false word, or any superstitious idle and illogical statement; and even the scale of legitimacy of any word or book is the Qur'a-n: "It is the truth."
Since the words in former verses were about the believers who recite the verses of the Book of Allah and actually apply them, the verse under discussion speaks about this heavenly Book and the evidence upon its legitimacy as well as the true bearers of the Book. It completes the discussion mentioned in the former verses about Monotheism by this discussion which is about prophecy. It says:
"And that which We have revealed to you of the Book, it is the truth verifying that which is before it, verily Allah, about His servants, is Aware, Seeing."
Regarding this fact that 'truth' is in the sense of something which adapts the reality and is consistent with it, this meaning is a reasoning for proving this idea that this heavenly Book has been sent down from the side of Allah, because the more we are careful in its content the more we find it consistent with realities.
There is no contradiction in it; no falsehood or superstition is found in it; its beliefs and knowledge are consistent with the logic of wisdom; its statements about the ancient events are far from myths and legends; and its laws agree with the needs of human beings. This legitimacy is a clear proof upon this fact that it has been sent down from the side of Allah.
The holy sentence which says: "… verifying that which is before it …" is another proof upon the veracity of this heavenly Book, because it adapts with the signs which have been mentioned in the former heavenly Books about it and its bringer. (In this regard, there is a detailed discussion in the commentary of Sura Al-Baqarah, No. 2, verse 41)
The Qur'a-nic sentence which says: "… verily Allah, about His servants, is Aware, Seeing" states the cause of legitimacy of the Qur'a-n and that it is parallel with the facts and needs, because it has been sent down from the side of Allah Who knows His servants well and is Aware and Seeing unto their needs.
As for the difference between the Qur'a-nic words /xabi-r/ and /bas?i-r/ some commentators have said that the word /xabi-r/ is in the sense of cognizance about innate things, beliefs, intentions and the man's spiritual construction, while /bas?i-r/ means having insight unto the man's outward things and his bodily phenomena. 42
Some other commentators believe that the word /xabi-r/ refers to the principle of the creation of man, and /bas?i-r/ refers to his deeds and states.
42. Tafsi-r-i-Kabi-r, by Fakhr-i-Ra-zi-, following the verse.

SILVER CREEK—Although we're still missing our major hatch for this time of year, other hatches have seen some improvement. The Pale Morning Dun has been much stronger and a Para PMD #16-18, Cut-Wing PMD #16-18 and a Cripple PMD #16 should do the job. Beatis is always present. A Para Blue Olive #20-24 and a Mason Quill Beatis Spinner #22 work well if Beatis is out. In addition, Black Midges and Black Midge Pupa #20-22 are always effective as well as Ant and Beatle patterns in size #16-18. Although only a few Brown Drakes have been seen, the hatch for the most part has been a bust so far. I can't believe it's done with but you never know. If it does come, it will be fast and furious and be over with by the time you get your waders on and shoes laced up. Regardless, if it doesn't show this week, I'm taking my money off the table. Good luck.
BIG WOOD RIVER—Too high and off-color to fish.
WARM SPRINGS/TRAIL CREEK—Neither is fishable.
BIG LOST—The upper river is running high. It is past the point of comfortable wading and fishing since they've turned up the flow in the lower section (500 cfs). I would leave both areas alone. What is interesting, of the drainages in the state, the Big Lost Basin has considerably less water content left to melt off. It could become very fishable sooner than anywhere else. I will keep you abreast of things as it unfolds.
PENNY LAKE/LAKE CREEK/GAVER'S LAGOON—Always updated with planted fish and is a great option for the younger set.
SOUTH FORK OF THE BOISE—They have actually dropped the water level in half to 2000 cfs, thus making it very fishable in selected places. Had a solid report of success while fishing the bank edges using Simulators. Regardless, there is still a great deal of water so be very careful while wading.

Can I avoid probate by making my family joint owners of my property?
Generally, real estate which is held as "joint tenants with right of survivorship" automatically passes to the surviving joint tenant without a probate procedure. Many persons attempt to avoid probate by naming children as joint tenants. Although this practice may avoid probate, it brings with it a host of potential pitfalls. In addition to triggering gift tax consequences, you may subject your home to attack by a child's creditors, as your child is now a "co-owner" of the asset. Many problems lurk within estate plans founded upon joint ownership. Often a revocable living trust is a better vehicle for probate avoidance. Contact an estate planning attorney before implementing joint ownership strategies.
Many people share confusion regarding estate taxes. Some clients seem to believe that the state or federal government will take money from their estate by virtue of a probate proceeding alone. Please understand that probate has nothing to do with taxes. Rather, the expense associated with probate is mainly attorney's fees.
Under federal law larger estates may be subject to the estate and gift tax. The exclusion level is subject to Congressional oversight and is often the subject of discussion. The unlimited marital deduction affords no real tax liability upon the death of the first spouse. However, after a spouse's death there is a single individual with an estate exceeding the exclusion amount which will likely be subject to some estate tax. Consequently, couples who have estates close to or exceeding the exclusion level should properly implement their Nevada estate planning for tax avoidance purposes.
The revocable living trust is a good option to avoid or minimize estate taxes. A properly drafted trust may separate the estate into two trusts upon the death of a spouse. This strategy will allow a couple to fully utilize each of the individual exemption, allowing double the benefit for the surviving spouse. Portability is another benefit a surviving spouse may utilize to minimize the potential of federal estate taxes.
Will my estate planning trust protect my assets from creditor claims?
It depends. Generally, for basic estate planning purposes, people execute a revocable living trust. This trust provides many benefits, including probate avoidance, privacy, planning for incapacity, and estate tax avoidance. However, a revocable living trust generally will not provide protection from your own creditors.
It is a common misconception that by transferring your assets to a trust you will keep them out of reach of creditors. However, because grantors using revocable trusts have full powers to revoke, amend, and otherwise exercise dominion and control over the assets, creditors may still get to the assets of the trust. However, a beneficiaries creditors may not get to the assets of the trust if a proper "spendthrift provision" governs the trust.
In order to truly protect assets, one must generally enter into an irrevocable arrangement. The downside is that you generally lose control of your assets in an irrevocable trust. However, for some people, the irrevocable trust may make some sense. Some advanced planning techniques may be appropriate to those who have increased liability risks.
The revocable living trust is privacy. A will that is probated becomes part of the public record. Probate is a court proceeding where a court oversees the administration of an estate. Generally, a will would be filed with the court in probate, thus becoming a public document. A revocable living trust avoids your estate plan becoming a public document by avoiding probate altogether. Consequently, the revocable living trust becomes a good option to keep your estate planning private.
If you have previously had an estate planning trust prepared, check your deeds to make sure all of your real estate and water rights are titled in the name of your trust. The number one pitfall of the revocable living trust is failing to deed your property to it. Your trust only governs the property it owns.
Most states, including Utah and Nevada, provide that personal property may be disposed of by use of a handwritten list left at death. If the handwritten list is found at your death it is effective to pass items of personal property to specific people by way of probate or specific instruction to a successor trustee. The handwritten list allows people to devise certain items of sentimental value to particular persons even though their estate may be otherwise divided in equal shares. So, if you want your prized hunting rifle to go to your hunting buddy, it is easy to do. The simplicity of the handwritten list is that it can be changed without a complete revision of your will or trust documents.
Who will care for my minor children if I pass away?
This is one of the major reasons that it is vital for even young couples to have a will. Utah law allows a parent to name a guardian for their minor children by a provision in their will. A person named by will has priority of appointment as the minor child's guardian. Otherwise, the guardianship of the children could be a matter of litigation between family members as well as the State Department of Child and Family Services. Young families should safeguard their children through a properly drafted will provision.
Another planning tool that can benefit your minor child is a special needs trust. This trust gives the benefit to the special needs child and avoids any spend down provision that may apply for public benefit programs. A special needs trust is a vehicle that can provide the financial peace of mind for you and provide for the care, maintenance and welfare of your child with special needs. Once the designated purpose is fulfilled, the trust assets can then pass to named beneficiaries, including your surviving children and grandchildren.
The number one reason that clients seek a living trust is for probate avoidance. Basically, probate unduly complicates administration of your estate and adds unnecessary expense.
However, there are many other reasons to consider a living trust. First, if you become incapacitated and unable to handle your personal or financial affairs your loved ones would generally need to seek a guardianship from the court to properly provide for your care. In Nevada, a court often requires your assets to be placed in a blocked account so that the court may oversee administration. A trust allows you to name a successor trustee to handle your affairs should you become mentally incapable. This allows YOU to choose your guardian and not some court. A trust generally allows administration without the time and expense of going to court.
How do I handle affairs when I live out of state?
Our attorneys frequently work with clients that live out of state that have the responsibility to close the affairs of parents and grandparents. Our services are tailored to match the needs and budget of our clients. We focus on the most cost-effective means to probate the estate, transfer title to real and personal property, and distribute estate assets to rightful heirs.
By retaining counsel located in the county where the deceased passed away, the client retains our experience of knowledge of the local court proceedings, transfer procedures and services. Our firm strives to communicate often and openly with the client to minimize any challenge physical distance may present.
It is vital to a proper estate plan to make appropriate arrangements for your remains. Failure to properly plan these issues can lead to family strife and, at times, litigation.
Both Utah and Nevada law give preference to the properly expressed wishes of a decedent. In Utah, burial instructions may be made in a will or separate legal directive (often executed when making advance funeral arrangements), stating the name and address of the decedent, the decedent's wishes, the decedent's signature, the signature of two unrelated witnesses, and the date the document was executed. Similarly, in Nevada, a person may execute a will or other directive to establish burial instructions.
If no instructions are left by a decedent, the law generally provides a plan of priority as to who may order the burial or cremation. In Utah, absent a written instruction, the following order of priority applies: (1) surviving spouse, (2) majority vote of surviving children over 18, (3) unanimous consent of surviving parents, (4) next of kin, (5) public official charged with disposition of deceased persons. You can see the obvious flaws in this imperfect system. What if the kids do not agree and are evenly divided? What if only one surviving parent consents to cremation? Does it then fall to a next of kin to make the decision?
Nevada law follows a similar system of priority, absent written instruction, as follows: (1) a surviving spouse, (2) an adult son or daughter (former law required a joint decision), (3) either parent (former law required parents jointly), (4) adult brother or sister, (5) a grandparent, (6) a guardian, (7) a person who held the primary domicile with the decedent as a joint tenant (i.e. unmarried partner). The Nevada system went away from a majority vote of children to "an adult child." This seems to invite panic among siblings.
This is a situation where the legislators have done the best they can with a difficult situation. Many familial problems can be solved by properly designating your burial instructions in your estate plan and/or making advance arrangements with a funeral home.

Nurse Trixie Franklin (Helen George) may have the most bubbly and bombastic personality of those at Nonnatus house, but as the season four premiere of "Call the Midwife" shows us, this is one woman with a lot of love and tenderness to give.
As for what to expect from season four, George has explained that viewers will be able to witness an evolution in terms of how the midwives carry out their profession.
George also noted the nature of care provided by midwives decades ago was, in some ways, miles ahead of where it is today.
On this week's episode of "Call the Midwife" (9pm ET/6pm PT), a chance encounter with an impoverished child forces Trixie to see an unfamiliar darker side of life. As Nonnatus House welcomes a new resident, Nurse Barbara Gilbert, Tom Hereward has a surprise romantic gesture in store for Trixie.
