THE USE OF LIFETIME DISCRETIONARY TRUSTS TO PROTECT FAMILY WEALTH FROM DIVORCE
April 27, 2022 lauren
Many clients are concerned about protecting their child's inheritance if the child later divorces. While prenuptial and postnuptial agreements may effectively waive rights to a spouse's inheritance, conversations surrounding these agreements are often avoided out of discomfort and the necessary extensive asset disclosure.
In the event there is no prenuptial or postnuptial agreement, lifetime discretionary trusts can be employed in an estate plan and can shield inherited assets from a divorcing spouse (and may even provide tax benefits).
A discretionary distribution standard provides the trustee with the authority to distribute assets in its sole and absolute discretion without any fixed standards (such as support or health). The beneficiary is not entitled to receive periodic distributions and cannot demand a distribution. To effectively employ a discretionary distribution standard, an independent trustee (someone who is not an eligible beneficiary) must be appointed. Often a professional trustee such as a bank, trust company, attorney, or accountant will serve in this role.
Broadening the class of beneficiaries so that a child and the child's children are eligible beneficiaries can also help provide asset protection. This further evidences a child's lack of ownership over the trust assets because the trustee can vary distributions among multiple beneficiaries.
Creating a trust with these terms may seem inflexible or unnecessary given the circumstances of a child. Some of these concerns can be alleviated with the appointment of a trust protector who oversees the trust and acts in the best interests of the trust and its beneficiaries. A trust protector often holds the power to remove and replace a trustee and terminate a trust.
Even though a trust may be protected from division of assets during a divorce, it is important to recognize that Connecticut is an equitable division state. Courts, therefore, may consider the history of trust distributions actually made and award a greater share of non-trust marital assets and enhanced alimony to the other spouse. However, use of the discretionary lifetime trust can preclude a direct award of the trust assets to the beneficiary's spouse. Depending on a family's situation, incorporating a discretionary lifetime trust into an estate plan may be a good choice. For more information, please contact Peter T. Mott (pmott@brodywilk.com), Lauren Cimbol (lcimbol@brodywilk.com) or another BW attorney.

The views and opinions expressed within this article by the author do not necessarily represent the views or opinions of New York Minute Magazine or its associates.
To be a Catholic is to live a religious life rooted in tradition, the Scripture, and the established status quo. This is why former Irish president Mary McAleese's call for Pope Francis to tear down Catholicism's "walls of misogyny" is shaking the establishment to its core.
Pope Francis' apprehension toward lifting the ban on ordained female priests works within that same attitude. Jesus' apostles were all men, therefore, only men can be prominent leaders in the Catholic church.
It's 2018. It's understandable that there are women devoted enough to the religion that they'd want to become ordained priests, and that they'd want to belong to a religion that is inclusive and equitable because women are capable of leadership.
But it's hard to change tradition.
The highest woman authority figure I ever saw in the church was the office director for my parish's youth group.
As a kid, I attended mass, participated in the acts of Confession and Communion, and sat idly muttering memorized prayers to the point where I could do it subconsciously without glancing at the mass pamphlet.
But as I grew, I began to gather my own views on social issues – views that didn't agree with the church's stance. Strike one occurred when I was old enough to understand the depth of the scandals brought to light by The Boston Globe surrounding priests abusing children. Marriage equality has long been a hot topic of debate in the Catholic church and has generally been deemed sinful. As a member of the LGBT community, that felt like strike two. Strike three occurred when I began to feel like my parish was putting more emphasis on monetary donations rather than the cause for donating.
The regulations of how I could or couldn't live my life pushed me away. In my eyes, the church's view on a great deal of many social issues bothered me, and perhaps I'd feel different if there were more leaders in the church that I could identify with – progressive leaders, for example, who advocated for the inclusion of LGBT members and for gender equality as a whole.
To question the way something works in the church is to question the overall religion and the way the world works. The cogs and gears mesh together, but, when there is pointed question, it can throw a wrench in the system – one that's been working and ticking for thousands of years. Perhaps this is why, although Pope Francis has stated he wants to integrate more women leaders in the church, it hasn't been done.
But it is time for change and wider acceptance within the Catholic church. A common belief within the religion is that humans are all God's children and he accepts us for who we are – so why can't the hierarchy accept women being prominent leaders?
"How long can the hierarchy sustain the credibility of a God who wants things this way, who wants a Church where women are invisible and voiceless in Church leadership?" said McAleese in her address at the Women's Day event.
The time is now – thousands of years after its founding. Why? Because women are stepping up and providing insight in order to push for the opportunity to show their potential.

Q: Creating my own PHP framework Disclaimer: I don't want to start any flame war so there will not be no name of any framework mentioned.
I've been using quite many from the existing PHP frameworks and my experience in each case was similar: everything is nice a the beginning but in the moment you require something non standard you get into lot of problems to fix otherwise simple issues. In case of frameworks following the MVC design pattern there are some issues with the implementation of each layer for example there is a lot of codding used for model and data access with using ORM and presentation is not much more than pure phtml. Some frameworks use their own wrappers for existing PHP functionality and in some cases severely limiting original functionality. Depending on framework you can have additional problems like lack of documentation, slow or non existent development cycle and last but not least speed.
While ago I made my own framework which while doing it's job and being used for few different applications after couple of years more of experience with PHP doesn't seem to be perfect piece of codding. I could write my own framework and use additional experience I've gathered during these years to make it better on the other hand I'm aware that there is quite many better programmers working on creating/upgrading existing frameworks.
So does it make at all nay sense to write my own PHP framework if there is so many possibilities to choose from?

A: Absolutely, roll your own if you want.  Don't listen to naysayers.  The reason that there are so many frameworks to choose from in the first place is because people ignored the tired 'dont reinvent the wheel' mantra and tried to make something they thought was better.
So, re-invent the wheel if you feel the urge.  You'll learn a lot.  And who knows, maybe a year from now your framework will be the one that everyone is supposed to be using instead of making their own.

A: I don't think it make sense to create your own framework completely from scratch with the wealth of libraries that exist out there.  I have actually created (or glued) my own framework together with using Silex as a base, added some functionality to be able to use yaml for configuration, be able to use class as the controllers easily, ability to create the standard REST APIs with like 6 lines of controller code, and then add in a completely custom DAL/Active Record system (because I don't like any of the existing ones out there).  I also use Monolog for logging.
I think writing certain components of your framework can be warranted but not the entire thing, make use for those good open source general purpose libraries (a lot of the Symfony2 components can be used by themselves and Silex is just a collections of the core ones).

Engaging a Full-Time or Part-Time Nanny may prove to be a more sensible and convenient Child Care option for your Family, however, there are some Employer Obligations which need to be addressed.
Nannies are engaged as either an 'independent contractor' who run their own service and negotiate their own fees, or as an 'employee' of the family. It depends on which arrangement works best for you.
When engaging a Nanny into your family, you need to comply with the Australian Taxation Office and Fair Work and SafeWork. This is a standard and straight forward process, and in practice is not as difficult as it may seem.
You can use the ATO Employee/Contractor Decision Tool to work out if the arrangement with your Nanny is an employee or independent contractor for tax and super purposes. Fair Work have compared the difference between contractors and employees and who are independent contractors and employees.
A Nanny can commit to specific days of work with a Client on a short-term or ongoing basis in the capacity of an Independent Contractor.
Independent Contractors have an Australian Business Number and are responsible for their own tax payments and statutory obligations, under the same rules as Employees. The Client is not liable for the payment of leave.
At the conclusion of each booking or each period of service to a maximum of seven (7) days, the Nanny will provide the Client with a Tax Invoice, which will include an amount to cover the Nanny's charges and reimbursement for associated costs. The amount set out in the Tax Invoice is payable immediately and directly to the Nanny.
Contractors paid mainly for their labour are 'employees' for superannuation guarantee purposes. This is the case even if the contractor quotes an Australian Business Number. To determine if your Contractor is eligible use the ATO Superannuation Decision Tool, currently the Superannuation Guarantee is 9.5% of their regular earnings.
Independent Contractors come under "labour hire" service arrangement and are deemed to be "workers" for Workers Compensation purposes.
Insurance is indispensable and required by law if you engage people to be employed in your home. At an estimated cost of $40 per year from most insurance companies, it covers you in the unfortunate case of the employee injuring themselves while in your home. Contact Safe Work NSW on 13 10 50.
For Employees, you may need to withhold PAYG Withholding Tax from payments to your Nanny, for services provided and you may need to pay Superannuation Contributions. The ATO encourages you to be ready and have a Checklist Available for first time Employers.
The Australian Taxation Office classifies Nannies as Household Employees. You can register for the Pay As You Go (PAYG) withholding, as you may be required to withhold amounts from payments which you make to your Nanny. Visit for more ATO Information on Household Employees and visit FairWork for great information on Paying Wages to Employees.
Complete the Application to Register for PAYG Withholding (or apply over the phone 132866 and have your Nanny complete a Tax File Number Declaration form.
The ATO has a great mobile APP where you can enter in all your Tax and Super details online, then click here to read more you can also link your MyGov Account to the ATO click here to read more.
As an Employer, you have a responsibility to assist your Payees with meeting their end-of-year tax liabilities.
Nannies can be covered by the Miscellaneous Award 2010 MA000104 when they are in an employment relationship in a private home, performing tasks such as;. caring for children, preparing meals for children, planning educational and play based activities and doing light house work.
Refer to the Australian Taxation Office's (ATO) Household Employees page, to assist you with this process.
Employers are required to provide the nanny with a Tax Declaration form, payroll advice records and collect pay as you go (PAYG) withholding amounts from payments you make. Registration for PAYG Withholding can be completed online through the Australian Business Register or download their Application to Register for a PAYG Withholding Account.
Employers calculate how much tax to withhold each pay period using the ATO Tax Tables or estimate how much tax to withhold each pay period the ATO using the PAYG calculator.
At the end of each financial year, PAYG withholding annual report is lodged to the ATO. This includes all payments and the amounts withheld for your employee.
Refer to ATO website to ensure your obligations are being met or call 13 28 65.
If the family car is provided for the use of the Nanny, it is the Family/Employer's responsibility to provide full Insurance coverage. If the Nanny is to use her own vehicle as a condition of employment, an allowance of approximately $0.78 per kilometre for petrol and running costs applies over and above the agreed wage. Please note that the type of vehicle the Nanny drives determines the exact kilometre rate from the Australian Taxation Office.
Nannies must work for more than 30 hours per week to qualify for Superannuation Contributions. Currently the Superannuation Guarantee is 9.5% of their regular earnings.
Refer to the Australian Taxation Office's (ATO) Super for Employees page to assist you with this process and review their page, Working out if you have to pay Superannuation. To determine if your Employee is eligible, use the ATO Superannuation Decision Tool where you will be asked questions about the nature of the work arrangement.
There are minimum leave entitlements for full-time and part-time employees. All full-time employees are entitled to a minimum of 20 days annual leave or pro-rata for the hours/days worked. Part time employees receive the same entitlement on a pro-rata basis. Sick and carer's leave comes under the same leave entitlement of 10 days sick leave in the first year or pro-rata for the hours/days worked. Refer to Fair Works's the Pay and Conditions Tool Calculator to find out how much annual or sick / carer's leave has accumulated.
Sample Agreements / Contracts are available to Registered families of South Coast Nannies.
Nannies can be covered by the Miscellaneous Award 2010 MA000104 when they are in an employment relationship with families. Refer to Fair Work website to ensure your obligations are being met.
Domestic Workers Insurance is indispensable and required by law if you engage people to be employed in your home. At an estimated cost of $40 per year from most insurance companies, it covers you in the unfortunate case of the employee injuring themselves while in your home. Contact Safe Work NSW on 13 10 50.This is not always covered by your Home and Contents Insurance so you will need to check with your Insurance Company.
Public Liability Insurance to cover accidents in your home. You should check your Home and Contents insurance policy to ensure your Nanny is covered. Alternatively, you may arrange public liability insurance with an insurer such as NannySure.
Motor Vehicle Insurance if your Nanny is going to be using your car.

MATTHEW 1 of 12
This morning we're starting 12 weeks in the gospel according to Matthew. It's the first book of the New Testament, so not terribly tricky to find. There are four gospels—four accounts of Jesus's life—preserved for us in Scripture.
Last summer we did 12 weeks in Mark and we had such a good time that we thought we would do 12 weeks in Matthew. Matthew shares a lot in common with Mark. Like, a lot in common. If you go through and compare Matthew with Mark—you know, go through verse by verse, word by word, you'll find that around ninety percent of Mark is actually preserved and embedded inside of Matthew. Matthew is almost twice as long as Mark, but most of Mark is still there. Sometimes it's been rearranged, frequently material has been added around it, but it's still there.
It's like Mark is like a building to which Matthew has added on.
Most of us have been in a house or a building before where almost seamless additions have been made. That staircase definitely isn't original—because the building didn't originally have a second floor—but it matches so much of what was originally there. The wood, the stone, the style. The building is most twice as a big—and it feels so much different now—but ninety percent of the original building is still there in one shape or another. That's what most scholars think has happened with Matthew and Mark.
Matthew was there—following Jesus. And he's been following Jesus ever since. But as Matthew is getting older, Matthew is wanting to pass on the events and teachings and reality of Jesus. He knows that Mark's account is circulating around… but it's like Matthew wants to emphasize different things than Mark. He wants to accent things differently. And so most scholars think that Matthew has used Mark's gospel as his foundation, but he has renovated it.
Last summer we said that Mark is like an action movie—it's like the Matrix or Inception. A lot of action is happening, but all that action is serving a story—a story loaded with symbols and significance and meaning and depth.Matthew has taken Mark's action movie and renovated it, supplemented it, added to it. To the point where Matthew doesn't feel like an action movie.
Matthew feels more like a drama with dynamite dialogue. Have you ever watched a movie or a TV show where the dialogue—the words spoken by the characters—is just so unbelievably good that you just can't wait for this character and that other character to have that conversation? If you were caught up in a TV show like The West Wing or Breaking Bad and someone were to yawn and say to you: "When are we going to get to the explosions?"
You'd probably think: "Didn't you just hear that conversation? That is the explosion. That one conversation had me more on the edge of my seat than all of the explosions in that Transformers movie. Maybe this is an example of what I mean.
No explosions, nothing jumping out at us, and yet we're on the edge of our seat. Even if you've never seen the movie, in just these couple of minutes, you want King George VI to speak. Because you sense that there's more at stake than just him speaking. When he finally erupts: "I have a voice" that dialogue stirs something deep within us. Something within us resonates so deeply when we hear: "Yes. Yes you do." We want to hear him speak. We want him to have a voice. Maybe it stirs something deep within all of us because we all want to have voice. We want other people to hear us—to know us. And we want to hear and to know other people. And the words between these characters—this dialogue—taps into that.
The best dialogue does that. The best dialogue invite us—teaches us, challenge us—to reimagine our lives. To live in a new kind of way. The best kind of dialogue can open up a new world before us.
That's a bit like what Matthew is like. Much of the material with which Matthew has renovated Mark's story is talking material. It's teaching material. Jesus is like an action hero in Mark's story—bursting onto the battlefield and conquering evil. As Jesus began his ministry in Mark, he was proclaiming the kingdom of God and casting out demons. That's how Mark repeatedly described Jesus: he's announcing the kingdom of God and trashing evil. That's what Jesus does—he conquers evil. Matthew on the other hand describes the beginning of Jesus's ministry this way:
Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the people. News about him spread all over Syria, and people brought to him all who were ill with various diseases, those suffering severe pain, the demon-possessed, those having seizures, and the paralyzed; and he healed them. Large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea and the region across the Jordan followed him.
Now when Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. His disciples came to him, and he began to teach them.
Matthew 4v23 – 5v2
The announcing the kingdom is still there, and the trashing evil is still there… but there's a lot more. In Matthew, Jesus begins to teach them. He sees all of the crowds but then disciples—students, learners—come to him out of the crowd. And then Matthew gives us three solid chapters—from chapter 5 to chapter 7—of Jesus teaching.
Those chapters are often called the Sermon on the Mount, perhaps you've heard of it? And that block of teaching is just the first of five blocks of teaching that Matthew gives us. In Matthew's story, Jesus is a speaker of words. Jesus is a teacher. Jesus talks a lot more. Matthew has a lot more dialogue; and the dialogue is dynamite. There's power in what's being said.
So where do we begin with Matthew's gospel? Last summer we spent 12 weeks trying to get a feel for Mark's gospel. And that was a stretch. Mark's gospel is 16 chapters. Matthew's gospel, on the other hand, is 28 chapters. This house is almost twice as big. We're not going to be able to exhaustively explore every nook and cranny of the house. We're going to dip into key sections and stories of Matthew—especially some of the stuff that's only found in Matthew.
Today, I just want us to hear something Jesus says near the end of the Sermon on Mount in Matthew 7. It's only two verses—and they are verses that sound familiar. But these verses only show up in Matthew. Matthew is the only gospel-writer who preserves these words from Jesus, and I think they're as good a gateway as any into the heart of his gospel.
Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.
Matthew 7v13-14
"Narrow is the road that leads to true life," Jesus says. "Small is the gate… but it IS possible. And I'm inviting you to find it. To enter through that small gate. I'm inviting you to walk that narrow road."
So many people miss it—they chase all kinds of things but miss out on real life. But Jesus want us find it. That's one way of thinking about the good news according to Matthew. About all of the teaching and dialogue and what Matthew wants to emphasize. The gospel according to Matthew is good news of a narrow road.
That seems a little counter-intuitive. Right? We hear these words of Jesus—we hear about a narrow road—and it doesn't sound like good news. I've heard some preachers make Jesus's words here sound like a threat. You better toe the line, you better walk the narrow path, or—man oh man—is God going to get you. This passage doesn't sound like gospel—like good news. It sounds like bad news. But in reality, this passage might just summarize the good news according to Matthew.
Jesus invites us to a different path, a different way, a different kind of life. There is a kind of life that really is life. And we can find it. It's difficult. It's hard. It's takes time and patience. But Jesus is the one calling us onto this narrow road, so God must make it possible.
The call to the narrow road is extraordinarily difficult but it's also the best news imaginable. The narrow road is good news. Anyone who has practiced anything can tell us about this. Anyone who has ever practiced swinging a baseball bat or a golf club has experienced the narrow road. Anyone who has ever practiced learning a musical instrument, or a new language, or baking a particular dish… they know about the narrow road.
There is a narrow road. You need to hold the bat—hold the club—in a specific way. There are scales to practice, the verb goes at the end of the sentence in German, the ingredients need to be mixed in a particular way in particular order otherwise the whole thing won't work. The narrow road isn't bad news—it's just the way things are. When someone who can't hit a baseball is told about the narrow road of batting practice, they don't despair. They don't look at a coach and say: "What horrible news! Why are you so awful to me?" They say, "Ah ha! That's the way. What good news. This narrow road is the way I'll learn to hit the ball."
To switch back into the metaphor of movies and film, you can see the narrow road on full display if you watch the behind the scenes material of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit movies. In all of those movies, all of the actors and performers had someone training them how to move. In those movies, you've got elves and dwarves and orcs and all kinds of creatures coming to life on the screen. And behind the scenes, there's a guy developing and designing and training people how to move. Literally there's this guy who is showing dozens and dozens of people:
"You're playing a dwarf? You're playing an elf? Ok. You've got to move like this. Hold your self this way. Handle your armor this way. Handle your sword this way. You've almost got it. Try it again."
Dwarves and elves and orcs all move in a particular way. We've never seen what these creatures before, so all of the performers need someone to show them how they're supposed to move. And so there's a guy teaching everyone a dwarf moves like this, an elf moves like this, an orc moves like this. It's a narrow road. It's a narrow way. But if you want to be a part of this new world coming into existence on the screen, this is the way it looks.
As we begin studying Matthew over the summer, we begin here: Jesus has come to show us the way a human being moves. None us quite know this strange creature that we call a human being should move. And Jesus brings us good news:
"Here is the way. A human being moves like this. It's a narrow road. It's a small gate. So many people are missing it—but I'm inviting you into it."
That's why we do anything we do as a church. We want to come to Jesus and learn the narrow road from him. That's Matthew's goal for us. Not that we would gain trivia about Jesus. Not that we would get more knowledge about history. But that we would learn the true way of being human. That we would become disciples of Jesus.
That's why Matthew writes his gospel. If the life of Jesus isn't frequently course-correcting the way we move through our lives, Matthew would say then we're just fooling ourselves. And that is a frequent theme in Matthew. People who are interested in religion or history or moral behavior, people who are fascinated by the Bible, but who refuse to embrace Jesus. That's who Jesus is warning the most strongly in the gospel of Matthew: fine, religious people who refuse to let Jesus reshape their lives. Until we're letting Jesus teach us how to move, we're missing true life. Until we really want Jesus—the living Jesus—more deeply, more intimately than we want anything else, we're fooling ourselves.
Jesus has come to teach us, to say to us: "You want to reflect the image of God? Ok. You've got to move like this. Hold your soul this way. Handle your anger this way. Handle your sexuality this way. You've almost got it. Try it again." Jesus shows us what real life looks like.
And this is nothing close to us saving ourselves. God by his grace in Jesus is always the one who saves us. That's what all of the gospels are about: the way that God in Jesus is saving us. But we're invited to participate in his salvation. To work out this salvation in our lives. To learn what it means to a part of the new world that's coming into existence by his grace. That's something Matthew doesn't want us to miss. Like anything of any value, it's a narrow road.
May we not fool ourselves. May this study, may this series, may this summer, be the season when we embrace Jesus as deeply as Jesus embraces us. May we be haunted by the dialogue of Jesus—by the love and teachings and living presence of Jesus. And may Matthew's gospel teach us to move like him.

SA 'well positioned' for SKA work bids
19 March 2013 South African scientists, engineers, companies and institutions stand to benefit from the invitation for international consortia to bid for early-stage work on the Square Kilometre Array (SKA), an international effort to build the world's largest radio telescope, which will be co-hosted by South Africa and Australia. Last week, the International SKA Organisation issued an invitation for international consortia to bid for work packages in the pre-construction phase of the SKA, involving the design of the telescope architecture and sub-systems, including components such as antennas, receivers, signal processing systems, data transport and high performance computers. The overall aim of this phase, which is expected to run through to the end of 2016, is to deliver detailed designs and blueprints for the SKA facility to go out to tender for construction. SKA South Africa said in a statement on Friday that it was positioned to play a "prominent role" in responding to this request, both because of the expertise contained in the SKA South Africa project team, and because of the involvement of South African industry in the development and delivery of the SKA prototype MeerKAT telescope. "The MeerKAT engineering team and local industries have been in discussions with their international peers to form consortia that will respond to the request for proposals." SKA South Africa held an information session for local industry in February, and was now in the process of finalising a subsidy programme aimed at helping local companies and institutions to take part in the SKA pre-construction phase "on a shared risk basis, in order to develop the expertise, competency and know-how to be internationally competitive in bidding for SKA contracts when the telescope is built". Potential industry and institutional participants were encouraged to keep a check on www.ska.ac.za for information on the requests for proposals and related information. SAinfo reporter read more
Brand South Africa's Play Your Part Ambassador exercises her Constitutional Right #FreedomToMe
With the message: your vote is your voice anchored on a video-led digital campaign by Brand South Africa which called on citizens to exercise- their Constitutional Right and vote in this year's elections. "It is the responsibility of all registered citizens to make their X count to improve the quality of life for all" said, Brand South Africa's Acting Chief Marketing Officer, Ms Sithembile NtombelaThe general elections held in South Africa on 8 May 2019 saw a total number of 17 671 616 voters heeding the call, with many of them being first time voters. One of which is Play Your Part Ambassador Ntsako Mhlanga.Mhlanga is an education activist, child rights advocate and station manager for CAPS Radio, the station named after the school curriculum – plays the role of supporting learners and teachers in the education system.Mhlanga shares her experience as she exercised her Constitutional Right;Brand South Africa[BSA]: What does 25 years of democracy mean to you?Ntsako Mhlanga [NM]: 25 years is a quarter of a century. South Africa has been through 25 years of finding its feet post the apartheid era. It is quite a remarkable time for young people because we have vast opportunities. We are finally understanding the power of our voice and the potential that the South African child has.[BSA]: Why did you decide to go and vote?[NM]: I decided to go vote because I wanted to be an active citizen. As young people, we sometimes feel that we are not being heard. Youth protests sometimes result in burnt down buildings and vandalized property. Voting is the most peaceful and powerful way to express your views. A vote for me was the biggest noise I could mark about the changes I want in South Africa.[BSA]: Can you summarize your experience between; Making your X [NM]: When I received my ballot papers, I was extremely overwhelmed. There were over 40 political parties to choose from. I knew what I wanted but it was scary seeing all of them there. When I was marking my X, I was slightly paranoid. I did not want to choose the wrong one accidently. I drew my finger from the picture to the empty box to make sure I was selecting the right party. I was confident in my choice. Putting the ballots in the boxes [NM]: Putting my ballots in the boxes gave me so much joy because I felt a part of something so much bigger than I am. I felt that I made a great contribution to society. It was one of those 'this is it' moments. I could not turn back and I was comfortable with that. Looking at your inked thumb the day after[NM]: The next day I felt like laminating my thumb. As insane as that sounds, I was proud of my decision to vote and who I voted for. I will confess that the lady at IEC did properly mark my thumb and I asked her to make sure my mark was visible. I had to share this because this is the epitome of playing your part in society. [BSA]: What Why's do you hope your X will solve?[NM]: The biggest 'why' that I would like to solve is education. Why must a young person prove their poverty when applying to university? Why must a young person be barred from furthering their education because of finances? Why do school children not have proper infrastructure for schooling? These are questions that affect the population. We have 12 million learners in the education system and a 19,1 million youth population in South Africa. My X will solve these whys as youth are the future of the country.When asked how do does she foresee the future of South Africa after these elections, Mhlanga said "The future is looking quite united. We will see parties forcibly uniting because they cannot stand on their own. In Gauteng we have ANC governing, the DA majoring cities (Johannesburg and Tshwane) and EFF leading student commands in universities. We will see an interesting distribution of power amongst the top three".As part of her work to encourage young people to be well informed and exercise their constitutional rights, Mhlanga urges young people to get involved in their communities, bettering the environment around them for a promising future.

Wilder survives pummeling to stop Ortiz in 10th

Befitting the undefeated champion from Alabama, it was a wild affair for the final few rounds after a dull series of pawing and gesturing by Wilder gave Ortiz a solid lead."A true champion always finds a way to come back and that's what I did tonight," Wilder said.

What boxing doesn't know is how this performance will affect the division. Wilder's sights have been set on Anthony Joshua, who defends his WBA and IBF crowns at the end of the month against WBO champ Joseph Parker.If nothing else, Wilder's ring reputation took a hit, although his toughness and ability to take a punch can't be questioned."I'm ready right now," Wilder said. "I always said that I want to unify. I'm ready whenever those guys are. I am the baddest man on the planet and I proved that tonight. This solidified my position at the top of the food chain tonight." Then, in the seventh, Wilder was dazed and confused by Ortiz's assault. Though he never hit the canvas, he stumbled to his corner when that round ended. The end seemed near."I almost had him and I think I would've if there were a few more seconds in the round," Ortiz said. "Wilder was definitely saved by the bell. I thought I had him out on his feet. But you have to give him credit, he weathered the storm."Instead of folding, Wilder closed the ninth with two hard rights, and then a series of vicious combinations in the 10th started Ortiz's downfall.It was over with 55 seconds to go in the 10th after Ortiz went down for the second time in the round from a right uppercut and referee David Fields stopped it."I just had to get my range back and my fundamentals back," Wilder said.

In large parts of the world, people cannot be so sure that the water is running from their tap. Each day is a challenge to get the water they need for drinking and washing.
It is common practice to place a pump in a village, to provide water. But after two or three years the pump stops working and nobody is able to fix it, leaving the villages without water again. A new system is being put into place by another organisation. After some time, also this system breaks down again.
40% of the systems are not functioning the way they should. How can we change this? By taking all the costs into account, the so-called life-cycle costs for service delivery.
This short animation explains what the life-cycle cost components are and how to measure service, taking into account the indicators of quantity, quality, accessibility and reliability.

Cafe Gac Trinh: the Trinh Cong Son House in Hue
Category - Drink, Visit
Tags - art, art gallery, artspace, bob dylan, cafe, Cafe Gac Trinh, coffee, former residence, Gac Trinh, grit, history, inspiration, music, people watching, poetry, portraits, residence, trinh cong son, vietnamese history, vietnamese music, vietnamese singer, vietnamese songwriter, wanderlust
Ask anyone from Vietnam who Trinh Cong Son is and they'll either recite you some of his lyrics or tell you about the significance of his music. Son's compositions of around 600 songs span over 30 years of Vietnamese history. International press dubbed Trinh Cong Son the Bob Dylan of Vietnam. His blend of folk music, mostly referred to as 'yellow music', dealt with themes surrounding the human condition; love, loss of love, existentialism, the human race and the unknown fate of the Vietnamese people.
Trinh Cong Son: the Life of an Artist during War
Born in 1939 towards the end of the French colonial period, Trinh Cong Son studied at a French school in Hue. After short stints studying and working in Sai Gon, Quy Nhon and Lam Dong province, he returned to Hue during the Vietnam-American war in 1963. His circle of friends during this time were poets, painters, writers and university lecturers. He never intended to be a songwriter. Singing and playing guitar were passions he discovered during adolescence. For him, music served as a vehicle to release his inner feelings. Son started writing and performing around the late 1950s and by the time he moved back to Hue, he was already an acclaimed musician.
In Hue, Trinh Cong Son shared a modest 2nd floor apartment with his mother and sister that overlooked a small part of the Phu Cam river. During the composition of his first collection of songs, his lyrics dealt in metaphor and surrealism. A female university student, who he would watch from his balcony, would be his muse for approximately 80 of his songs. The most famous of these being Diễm Xưa (Diễm of the Past).
While the war between North and South Vietnam continued , it had hardly touched the city of Hue. Trinh Cong Son's first collection reflects this as war references only creep into a few of his songs. After the introduction of American troops in 1965 and the escalation of the fighting, the Tet Offensive of 1968 brought about one of Vietnam's bloodiest battles in Hue. The street below his apartment, where Son once watched his muse, were now filled with dead bodies and the constant roar of firearms and rockets. Son's songs after this period dropped the surrealism and metaphors in exchange for the same war imagery Vietnamese people were facing every day. Gia Tài Của Mẹ (a Mother's Legacy) was one of many Trinh Cong Son compositions after the Tet offensive.
During the two-month battle of Hue, Son would sneak to the university and play to the hundreds of civilians that took refuge there. As word of these intimate performances got out, other local artists and musicians would also join in, turning the event into a local jamboree. Bernard Weinraub, an American journalist who befriended Trinh Cong Son, once said that his public performances were so heart-touching that 'as soon as he [started] strumming his guitar and singing, the audience [wept].'
At a time when Vietnam was politically divided to its very core, Son's songs were conciliatory and unifying. His stance was apolitical and his only concern was the fate of Vietnam's people. Trinh Cong Son never aligned himself with any ism except for humanism. 'I love life with the heart of someone who despairs' Son wrote at the beginning of his second song collection. His refusal to side with either the communists of the South Vietnamese led to South Vietnamese authorities uncertain on to how to deal with him. They feared (as the communists would later do after reunification), that his songs would strengthen the position of the anti-war movement or influence soldiers into refusing to fight the war they were trying to wage.

In 1969, the South Vietnamese government officially banned Trinh Cong Son's music from being distributed or played on radio. Similar to the banned dissident writers of the Soviet Union during the Stalin years, Son worked in a fashion similar to samizdat; finding printers that would help copy his work and distribute it underground. Despite becoming somewhat of an outlaw, his songs continued to gain popularity among the South Vietnamese public. His songs gave voice to the thoughts of many who couldn't express them publicly. He became the spokesman for an entire generation.
Cafe Gac Trinh: The former home of Trinh Cong Son in Hue
While Trinh Cong Son left Hue after reunification, his apartment at 19 Nguyen Truong To street remains and now serves as a small cafe decorated with photos and paintings of the singer-songwriter. Although Cafe Gac Trinh's function is primarily commercial, the building and it's surrounding areas have hardly changed since the war. It feels very much like the neighbourhood of Russian writer Mikhail Bulgakov in Moscow. Trinh Cong Son was a name once found and later lost in Western news outlets. Tourists visit the city he wrote some of his most famous folk songs without even knowing who he is.
Gac Trinh serves as a memorial to Trinh Cong Son as well as a cafe
Pictures and portraits of the songwriter decorate the walls. Songs he wrote play softly through the cafe's speakers. Aside from some of the cafe's small renovations, Cafe Gac Trinh hasn't changed much since Trinh Cong Son's tenancy here. The cafe is minimalist and reflects the singer-songwriters bedouin lifestyle.
Gac Trinh spans four rooms with the front three providing seating areas. A small stage and a communal guitar sit in the corner facing the entrance, free for anyone to perform. The last section, which is accessible to the public, includes a mezzanine with a modest shrine to Son. Although a lot of the objects on show here didn't belong to Son, there is an original songsheet from one of his early drafts. The wooden table and chair also belonged to him. The balcony at the cafe's entrance has a couple of stalls facing towards the street below; presumably in the same spot Son sat and gained inspiration for many of his songs.
Paintings and photographs decorate the cafe of the singer-songwriter
While there isn't much to show for those looking for more of an insight into Trinh Cong Son's life, the area still retains the setting that inspired so many of his songs. The cafe is a great tribute to the artists and romanticists of 20th century Hue.
Reunification and the Echoing Legacy of Trinh Cong Son
On 30th April 1975, the north Vietnamese took control of Saigon and reunified Vietnam. Trinh Cong Son was invited that day to a radio station to sing his song Nối Vòng Tay Lớn ('Joins Hands in a Great Circle'). It was the first time his music was on public airwaves since 1968. The song imagines people from all over Vietnam holding hands throughout the country, something that had seemed impossible throughout the years of war.
Although offered escape out of Vietnam, Son was determined to stay with his people; 'we are all Vietnamese.' he still performed in the 1980s despite his musical output being limited after the war. Throughout the 1990s, he had relocated to Ho Chi Minh City where he played to intimate crowds with his friends at a restaurant. Despite his death in 2001, his songs are still very much in the hearts of Vietnamese people across the country. Today, he is commemorated at festivals with musicians singing his compositions and Youtube vloggers covering his songs. Cafe Gac Trinh stands as a small relic commemorating the life of one of Vietnam's greatest singer-songwriters.

There are some great articles I used when researching for this page:
The Tri̇nh Công Son Phenomenon by Schafer, JC. A fantastic academic paper that looks into understanding the popularity of Trinh Cong Son. A must-read for anyone wanting to know more about Son.
US Newspaper article on Trinh Cong Son's arrest dated 18/10/1968. Shortly after the Tet offensive.
The Life and Music of Trịnh Công Sơn (Đặng Tiến, 2001. Translated by Gibbs, J). An opinion piece on Trinh Cong Son as an artist, written after his death.
comparsions to Mikhail Bulgakov, Samizdat and Bob Dylan are purely personal opinions and/or extend as far as the comparatives mentioned above. There are many reasons why Trinh Cong Son or his situation was not like the aforementioned.
Thanks to Mr Minh from Gac Trinh for telling us more about the cafe, Ms Linh for helping with collecting some of the information for this article and Ana Fortuna for her photographs of Gac Trinh Cafe.

WARRANTS, INTEREST BEARING; COUNTY HOSPITALS; BUDGETS, COUNTY HOSPITALIZATION.
AGO 1956 No. 203 - Feb 14 1956
Attorney General Don Eastvold
Interest bearing warrants may legally be drawn upon county hospital fund provided the obligations to be met by such warrants were incurred within the limits of the appropriations as set by the county hospitalization budget.
Honorable Charles O. Carroll
County City Building
Seattle, Washington Cite as: AGO 55-57 No. 203
Attention !ttMr. K. G. Smiles
Chief Civil Deputy
You have requested an opinion from this office concerning the question of whether or not the issuance of certain interest bearing warrants, payable from the King county hospital fund, is legal under circumstances to be outlined in our analysis below.
We conclude that under such circumstances the issuance of the warrants is legal.
The question presented for our determination arises from the administration of the state's program for the medical care of indigents and recipients of public assistance. This program must be set forth in some detail in order to establish the necessary background for a consideration of the legality of the interest bearing warrants in question.
Under the provisions of § 1, chapter 5, Laws of 1953, (1st Ex. Sess.), the state department of health was given the "administrative responsibility for providing needful medical, dental and allied services to recipients of public assistance and medical indigents."
Section 4, chapter 5, Laws of 1953, (Ex. Sess.) provided, in part:
"(1) The department of health may utilize county hospitals and county infirmaries as determined necessary. County institutions so used shall submit a county hospitalization budget and/or infirmary budget to the state director of health not less than forty days prior to the time county budgets are finally approved and adopted by the county commissioners. He shall consider the proposed budget or budgets and return it or them to the commissioners with his recommendations within thirty days of its receipt by him. The commissioners shall be empowered to adopt as the final budget the proposed budget or budgets as submitted by the board or boards of trustees, the recommended budget or budgets of the state director of health or such budget or budgets as the county commissioners themselves determine to adopt: Provided, That if the total of the budget or budgets as finally adopted shall be in excess of the total of the budget or budgets as recommended by the state director of health, the said director may withhold from the county the amount of the excess over and above the total set forth in his recommended budget or budgets."
It is to be noted, therefore, that at the county level a budgetary relationship is set up between the amount to be expended by the county hospitals utilized in the program and the amount of state funds to be received from the state department of health.
Further clarification of the financial mechanics to be employed in covering budgeted expenditures by the county hospitals with income from the state department of health is found in § 4, chapter 256, Laws of 1951, which provides:
"Payments from the state department of health shall be made by warrant of the state auditor to the individual counties upon vouchers of the state department of health and shall be paid into the county hospital fund. At the beginning of the fiscal year the state department of health shall advance to the counties an amount equal to two months' operation based upon the average monthly cost of the last quarter of operation, which amount may be used to defray costs in the first months' operation. Reimbursements for the actual cost of operation shall be made monthly by the state department of health to the counties until the eleventh month of the fiscal year when the money advanced shall be used for the final two months' operational costs."
The King County Hospital was utilized by the state department of health in administering the medical care program. A hospitalization budget was adopted by King county containing estimates of income to be received from the health department during 1955 to cover budgeted estimates of expenditure by the hospital in pursuance of the program. An advance was made by the health department to the county hospital fund and reimbursements were made to the fund for expenditures made by the hospital during January, February, March, April, and May of 1955, in accordance with § 4, chapter 256, Laws of 1951.
King County Hospital billed the department of health in the amount of $315,684.30 for the expenditures it made during June, 1955, in order to obtain its reimbursement for that month. This bill, however, was not paid by the state health department because it had run out of funds. Moreover, at its 1955 session, the legislature transferred the responsibility for the program from the state department of health to the state department of public assistance, the transfer to be effective as of July 1, 1955. Section [[Orig. Op. Page 4]] 4, chapter 273, Laws of 1955. The bill could not be assumed by the department of public assistance, inasmuch as that department's appropriation could be applied only to reimbursements to county hospitals for expenses incurred after July 1, 1955, when the department took over responsibility for the program.
The result was that the King County Hospital was left with an account receivable against the state department of health in the amount of $315,684.30. Although there is no question that the county's expenditure of this money was within its budget, nevertheless, the unpaid item receivable from the state health department reduced the hospital's cash position and required a premature utilization of the advance which, under ordinary circumstances, would be used for the months of November and December, 1955, when no reimbursements would be made. For this reason the health department's failure to pay the county's June bill did not deplete the cash in the county hospital fund until December, 1955.
It was at this point that the county hospital had to resort to interest bearing warrants if its operational obligations were to be paid. The question is whether or not the issuance of such interest bearing warrants is legal under these circumstances.
The legality of issuing a warrant depends upon whether or not the obligation was incurred within the limit set by the estimates of expenditure in the county budget. RCW 36.40.100 provides in part:
"The estimates of expenditures itemized and classified as finally fixed and adopted in detail by the board of county commissioners shall constitute the appropriations for the county for the ensuing fiscal year; and the county commissioners and every other county official shall be limited in the making of expenditures or the incurring of liabilities to the amount of such detailed appropriation items or classes respectively: * * *"
And RCW 36.40.130 provides in part:
"* * * The county auditor shall issue no warrant and the county commissioners shall approve no claim for any expenditure in excess of the detailed budget appropriations or as revised under the provisions hereof, except upon an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or for emergencies as hereinafter provided. * * *"
Inasmuch as there is no question that the county's hospitalization budget was prepared and approved in accordance with the procedure provided for by § 4, chapter 5, Laws of 1953 (Ex. Sess.), and inasmuch as the obligations incurred by the hospital were within the budget estimates, warrants must be issued to cover these obligations, notwithstanding the fact that such warrants cannot be currently paid for want of funds in the county hospital fund. The warrants will be paid in the order of their issuance upon the call of the county treasurer as cash flows into the hospital fund from reimbursements made by the state department of public assistance to cover operational costs incurred in subsequent months. We are advised that the first issue of interest bearing warrants has already been called and paid in this manner. See RCW 36.29.040; RCW 36.29.050; RCW 36.29.060; and RCW 39.56.020.
We have reached the conclusion that such warrants in these circumstances are legal.
It is clear that the King County Hospital fund cannot be placed upon a truly current cash basis until the $315,684.30 receivable is paid by the state department of health. The ability of that department to pay the account depends of course upon the enactment of a deficiency appropriation for this purpose by the legislature at its next session.

Insulation does a great job of slowing the transfer of heat between the roof space and the living areas in your home. But on hot days, heat can still build up over time. Considering the heat inside your roof can reach 70ºC / 167F you can understand the tough job that insulation has to do. When you add a few quality roof ventilators your reduce the roof space heat build up by expelling hot air, which enables it to be replaced with cooler air from outside. This makes your insulation work far more effectively. It also removes unwanted moisture odors and mold, and potentially mildew from building up in your roof pace.

Comments Off on Kinedyne Kaptive Beam transfers ordinary trailers into super trailers
A booming economy is great until you have to figure out how your operation is going to keep up with the increased demand.
Fleets and independents alike have to grapple with the simple, yet vexing limitations of available man-hours and vehicle capacity when it comes to moving freight. New routing and scheduling algorithms can help, but they can't address the ultimate barriers imposed by a labor force with more options.
There are plenty of good jobs to be had in this economy, and while the shipping industry continues to struggle to find enough drivers to meet its current needs, there is widespread speculation that there won't be enough of them to man the record-breaking truck and trailer orders already in the pipeline. What if, as many experts predict, the economic expansion continues, pushing us beyond our maximum throughput?
"I recently heard a speaker at an industry conference work through the math and propose that the trucking industry is on the verge of essentially 'maxing-out' on the volume it can cope with," said Scott Frazier, national account manager for Kinedyne LLC. "I believe one way to change the equation is to focus on increasing a vehicle's cargo capacity, and Kinedyne has a solution that has a successful track record spanning more than two decades."
Kinedyne's Kaptive Beam Double Decking System increases profits by boosting a trailer's load capacities by up to 100%. The system can help maximize a trailer's total available cargo space, and allows easy loading and unloading access of two cargo levels.
"The Kaptive Beam system transforms a refrigerated trailer into a super-productive, super-capacity, super reefer," said Frazier, "with the ability to hold double the cargo it otherwise could."
The system's beams glide on wall-mounted tracks and store at ceiling height when not in use, and when used properly, won't damage a reefer's flexible ductwork. Because the beams remain on their tracks, never leaving the trailer, they don't become tripping hazards and will never be left behind on the dock. The Kaptive Beam system is fully adjustable accommodating cargo of varying dimensions and heights, and is not only easy, but also intuitive to operate using bare hands and the system's beam adjustment tool.
The Kaptive Beam Double Decking System must be installed during trailer construction and works best in scenarios where the entire vehicle is being used for frozen or refrigerated cargo. The system favors 28- to 53-foot trailers without ancillary ductwork, or ceiling-mounted ductwork that is low profile and centered, but can accommodate other duct configurations as well.
This system is designed exclusively to support palletized cargo, though non-palletized floor-loaded and mixed cargo can be stowed below. It is perfect for use with products that are fragile, can't be stacked and those susceptible to damage if double-stacked.
Cargo compartments of many reefers are segregated into three chambers. The most forward chamber, often closest to the refrigeration unit, is commonly reserved for frozen cargo. The adjoining mid-ship chamber is often used for refrigerated cargo. The rearmost chamber may be used for dry and packaged products. Many fleets also configure trailers with unrefrigerated chambers in their midsection, enabling workers entry to both adjacent frozen and refrigerated sections through the mid-ship door. In chambered reefers, the Kaptive Beam works best when installed in the rear chamber.
As a cargo, seafood presents a number of challenges. The containers come in odd shapes, and because the product is often still alive, can be easily damaged, so loads can't be stacked. Additionally, seafood is a value-dense cargo, and even minor product losses can be extremely expensive.
Like most others engaged in moving refrigerated seafood, one supermarket chain was forced to floor-load everything and was unable to fit more than 24 pallets in any load. In order to satisfy demand, the supermarket chain was making two to three runs a day from its central Pennsylvania shipping location to its distribution hub in central New York state.
After the purchase of one Vanguard reefer fitted with the Kaptive Beam system, the supermarket chain was able to double the load capacity of 53-ft reefers. It moved from 24 palletized containers to 48, essentially taking the original loadable floor space from 450.5 to 901 square feet of usable cargo area.
"Kinedyne usually tells customers to expect a Kaptive Beam System to pay for itself within three months," said Frazier. "The supermarket chain has reported that it calculates the cost savings associated with just a single Kaptive Beam System to be about $400,000 annually."
Since the mid '90s, Kinedyne has been supplying the Kaptive Beam Double Decking System to the trucking industry. Today, the system comes in two versions; the original K1 and the newer K2.
The K2 system was recently upgraded. Its new head assembly trigger profile interfaces with the revised, grooved head design of the beam adjustment tool, making the system's operation much smoother and efficient even in refrigerated environments. The trigger now features an angled lip that enables the beam adjustment tool to make a more secure connection, making locking, unlocking and adjustment of beam height faster and easier.
The system's foot and guide shoe components are made of rugged anodized aluminum, and the locking pawl is made of steel. Head assemblies with the new high-performance locking trigger design can be purchased separately and can replace existing head assemblies on any older K2 model Kaptive Beam Decking System.
Kinedyne offers a service to all existing and prospective Kaptive Beam customers to help accurately assess needs before purchase and to assure maximum ROI after purchase. The Kinedyne Solutions Team, a group within the Kinedyne organization, provides a Train the Trainer Program for dry van and refrigerated fleets that purchase the Kaptive Beam Decking System.
