Awaken...It's Time.
We are at the bottom of the world's value scale. Us. Human Beings. Somewhere down the ladder of values close to that of trash and vermin. Disposable. Invaluable. Replaceable. Disagree? Ok, let's take a look.
Pick a topic. Any topic. Economics. Work. Child Slavery. Genocide. Sex Slavery. Wars. Mutilations. Homelessness. Starvation. Suppression of Women. Refugee Crisis. Human trafficking. Bombings. Shootings. Shall we continue?
"Oh, but that's somewhere else! That's in the past. It's the minority." Is it?
I find it interesting how we distance ourselves from the true state of our world. The true state of ourselves. Only a very small percentage of the world's population can sit and be at complete ease within themselves. No matter what is happening around them. A few percent at peace. Peace being the minimum benchmark. The rest of us are in some kind of inner turmoil. Operating compulsively, on auto pilot in a mad manic state to get somewhere.
And from this state we create our world.
From the time we wake up to the time we go to sleep. Compulsively doing what we think we need to in order to survive in this world. Ask yourself, when you wake up in the morning are you well rested?
Exuberantly jumping out of bed, looking foward to the day ahead? Are you in a state of ease and contentment throughout your day? Completely enjoying your own space? Your children, partner, and friends? For no reason at all? Happy to be alive? Smiling at the world? Or are you rushed? Feeling like you need to get somewhere fast? Hurriedly brushing your teeth, eating on the go? Running to make the bus, train to work? Stepping over people along the way?
But what does this have to do with the state of the world? And the value of Human Beings?Everything! Your state is the collective reflection of the world!
Our collective consciousness is the world!
It is the pure reflection of the state of Humanity. You've heard it before…We are One. One Energy. One Vibration.
Which means that all the shit in the world that we ignore, and want to go away and die, is us! And Denying it doesn't make it go away. The Latte drinking, Bar trending trivia nights won't make it go away. Buying expensive clothes, accessories, handbags or the latest I Phone doesn't work either. Nor does Living in the newest pet-friendly trendy suburb.
We are in a mess. The Human species. The state of the world tells us that. And It's time to awaken!
It's time to be brave and make the conscious effort to evolve. It's time to explore our forgotten deep dark crevices that lay deep within our own psyche. It's time that we discovered who we truly are. It's time to operate from a different foundation. One that is pillared from our highest selves. Because the current model isn't working!
Is It?
We are destroying the planet. Generations of Human Beings surpassing each other in refugee camps. Refugee camps! The majority of the world is in some kind of war or dispute. Basic levels of Human hygiene are not existent in parts of the world. Men, Women, and Children starving to death while tons of food is thrown away daily.
Global Warming. Irreversible damage to our rivers, ocean, and wildlife. The selfish, isolated mode of survival that we operate from collectively needs an upgrade. And we must acknowledge our part in it. We must see that we are a part of the whole. We must see that we directly contribute to the global state of the world.
We must awaken.
And we must not stop until we come out the other side where contentment and ease within our own body and mind are our default modus operandi. We have to stop waiting for the United Nations, or a Saving Grace to magically appear from the heavens and solve everything.
Current Institutions and World Organisations are not working! Otherwise, we would be living in a different world. Wouldn't we!
Wouldn't we?
The world will not change by finger pointing, blaming or disassociation. It will change because of us. It will change when we change. We have to stop waiting and start taking responsibility. Now!
Think about the times when you were truly happy, content, smiling for no reason at all, just simply because you felt good inside. Were there any thoughts of conflict within you? Frustration or anger? Did any thoughts of harming another arise within you? Any ill feelings whatsoever?
Love and hate cannot exist simultaneously. It's impossible!
Now, let's take this idea and imagine all the people on the planet operating from this state.
Completely happy to be alive. Can you imagine the state of this world? Could you imagine anyone harming another? Thinking ill feelings toward another? Absolutely not!
We would smile at each other! Acknowledge each other for the soul that we are. Human Well Being would be our Highest Value. First! Before money, I phones, Laptops, Tablets, Material Possessions, Technology, Cars Gadgets, Clothes, Everything!
Now imagine bringing that value to work, financial institutions, construction, business, the planet. Your employers highest value is you. And yours is your employer. Could you see how everything would change? You would treat each other with the utmost importance. Do you think from this space that we would feel cared for? Loved, Valued? Do you think that from this state we could possibly allow Anyone to be Homeless? Alone? Isolated? Hungry? Abused?
Do you think that we could possibly harm the planet from this state?
No! Absolutely not!
We will stop wasting time on insignificant manic things that keep us locked, imprisoned and isolated. We will unite. Unite through our own Awakening. And through Awakening, we will create a New World.
The world where people acknowledge each other.
The world where people give each other time and presence.
The world where children happily play unattended in our front yards and streets.
The world where people stop and talk to each other.
The world where Neighbours congregate at the front of the street. Sharing, laughing together.
The world where streets are filled with color, vibrancy, art, music, and dance.
This is my Vision.
This is the World I want to live in.
But it will not happen while we dissociate and separate ourselves from each other and the world. It will not happen if we continue to be spectators, judging from the sidelines of our couch. It will not happen as we are. It will happen when we take personal responsibility for everything. It will happen when we place each other first before everything!
Awakening is what the world needs most right now.
Operating from a higher level of understanding within ourselves.
This is my Dream.
And my wish is that you join me.

Sometimes you suspect someone might not be the right fit for a business relationship. There are a number of red flags I watch for when I hear from someone out of the blue. For me, an emphasis on or preoccupation with 'price' is one of them. Which gives me permission to be direct with the new, potential client, in addressing their key concern.
A representative response might be….
Good morning xxxxxxx,
I'll tell you right off the bat, if price is your determining factor, we're probably not a good fit for each other. Because I know we're not the cheapest game in town. (We're also not the most expensive.) When we work with new clients who need a trust to accomplish their goals, we're usually also incorporating a new Will, Durable Power of Attorney, Health Care Proxy and HIPAA Release. Our fee for that work is $7,500.
(Fine print required by the attorneys' licensing board: this is our current fee, and discounts sometimes apply, depending upon circumstances. This article should not be interpreted as a guarantee of pricing.)
If you decide to compare our fee quote with quotes from other attorneys, please make sure you're comparing apples to apples. We look at a number of elements we know other attorneys don't, to make sure that your plan will work when your family needs it to. We're proud to be more than document generators; we do much more than fill in blank lines like a game of Legal Mad Libs.
Instead, we work through three distinct phases with our clients.
Phase 1 is about discovering your individual goals and then designing a plan to accomplish them. My role as your attorney is to help you make informed decisions. That means making sure you have the knowledge and understanding you need about the pros and cons of different options, so you can be confident you're making smart decisions. You know this stuff is important, and I want you to know – and feel good about the fact that – you're making the right choices.
Phase 2 is about implementing the planning strategy we design together, and then (and this is where many attorneys stop their work) integrating your assets and the people you want to rely upon into the plan. That means getting asset ownership or beneficiary designations aligned with what your plan needs to be successful. We also want to make sure that the people you plan to rely upon are also aware of the basic structure of the plan so they'll be ready to support you if and when the time comes. We've established a structure for completing this phase that's efficient, and keeps things as simple as possible.
Phase 3 is preserving the plan for the long haul. It's one thing to create the right plan for today, it's quite another to make sure it stays the right plan for later. Throughout this phase we commit to staying connected and in communication so we can safeguard the plan, update it when needed, and know you'll be secure in the future.
We encourage you, always, to interview other attorneys and make sure you find a team that can meet your needs and provide a welcoming, safe, non-judgmental space in which to have the important conversations, ask the important questions and get the answers you need and in a way you understand. Price may be one of those questions, and we respectfully suggest you make sure you're not comparing the cost and care of a One Phase approach to the cost and care of our Three Phase service.
If we don't end up working together, that's fine; I recognize we're not what everyone is looking for. If our approach does appeal to you, I'd love to hop on the phone and chat. It's good to get a bit of information first, so here are some questions to start with. Then you'll get a link to my schedule and book a time that's convenient for you.
We both know that the lowest price isn't always the best, you get what you pay for, etc etc. Give us a chance to show you how we do things around here, and see if we're the right fit… not simply the right price.

Limited Time Offer
Meet the SkyLux from Westcott. The first daylight balance, 1000w Equivalent Studio LED with a CRI Rating of 94+ that allows photographers to utilize their favorite modifiers with the addition of a single Bowens Mount Speedring.
It's all in the design.
The SkyLux is a beautiful, full-color spectrum of light housed in a high-quality, compact, all-metal construction unit, which embodies a unique design with a flat front panel to protect the LED light source. Meaning, there's no protruding bulb or globe to shatter.
Built to use modifiers of all sizes.

Built-in diffusion panel.
The built-in diffusion panel allows photographers to shoot without adding a modifier and still achieve a beautiful, soft, and consistent output.
Recessed LED.
The frosted and diffused LED source is recessed for a shadow free output.
LED impact resistance.
The LED source plate is spring mounted to ensure protection of the LED's if impact should occur.
Simple & easy to setup and use.
Control the output of the SkyLux from 30% to 100% with the rear seamless control dial.
Keeping things compact.
The accompanying external ballast aids to minimize the size of the SkyLux unit by moving large components away from the SkyLux housing.
Extended cables.
Extended cables ensure a versatile and mobile SkyLux unit in the studio.
Long lifespan.
Unlike units utilizing halogen or tungsten bulbs, the SkyLux gives off virtually no heat with it's unique LED design and has a lifespan of over 50,000 hours.
Internal fan.
Photographers will find an internal fan to keep the unit cool, but don't worry about the sound. The SkyLux has virtually zero sound while in operation. The quite fan and flicker free LED technology is a perfect setup for videographers.
Metal construction.
Solid, all-metal tilter-bracket & umbrella mount minimizes the number of hardware components to carry around.
It's all in the details.
An umbrella hole can be found in the supplied parabolic reflector allowing the SkyLux to be positioned directly in the center of your umbrella-framed modifier.

Virginia. Here and there, city-wide federations of parents or school patrons have supported the interests of the schools. The best examples of these are found in the home and school leagues of Boston and Philadelphia, the parents' league of Washington, D. C., and the Salt Lake City (Utah) home and school leagues.
One of the most difficult problems facing the parent-teacher movement has been that of securing persons who were willing and prepared to lead either locally or in the States. There were no courses on parent-teacher associations in any of the educational institutions until 1922, when Columbia University offered its first course. In 1923 and 1924 this university began to offer credit courses in its summer sessions. This was reported to have been made possible in each case by the cooperation of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers. In 1924 a credit course was offered in the summer session of the University of Georgia for workers in parent-teacher associations. These courses were attended by superintendents of schools, principals, teachers, and parents who studied the problems of organization and development of these groups of parents and teachers. Radcliffe College offered a course, in 1922 and 1923, in the beginning course in education in which there was a treatment of the purposes and activities of parent-teacher associations. Students in this course were required to study and report upon their own communities in Massachusetts.
The demand for trained instructors to give courses in educational institutions was and continues to be greater than the supply, but in spite of this many institutions inaugurated lectures, courses, or institutes during 1924 to develop leadership in these organizations. The following is an incomplete list of the institutions giving such courses during 1924 in some form or other: University of California (southern branch); University of Delaware; George Washington University, District of Columbia; University of Georgia; Indiana University, Biological Station, Winona Lake, and Fort Wayne Extension Center, Indiana; Chicago (Ill.) Normal College; State Normal School, Maryland; Boston University; Radcliffe College; Hyannis, Fitchburg, and North Adams (Mass.) normal schools; Central and Northern State Normal Schools and Ypsilanti State Normal College, Michigan; University of Minnesota and five Minnesota teachers' colleges; University of Missouri; State Teachers College, Nebraska; Newark, Ocean City, and Glassboro State Normal Schools, New Jersey; Columbia University; Bowling Green Normal College and Ohio State University; University of Oregon; Winthrop College, South Carolina; East Tennessee and West Tennessee Normal Schools, Tennessee Polytechnic Institute and University of Tennesseo; University of Texas and the seven teachers' colleges of Texas; four State normal schools of Virginia.
Parent-teacher associations take the stand generally that equipment for public schools should be provided by public funds. But these same organizations have met emergencies rather than to deprive their children of the necessary and proper means of securing an education.
The almost universal attempt at retrenchment in the use of public funds for educational purposes during the past five years has made it necessary for parent-teacher associations and other similar organizations to assume many financial burdens. The total amount raised and expended by these organizations has reached considerable proportions.
Finance committees devise ways and means of raising funds. In a thoroughly organized State like California, the finance chairman reports to the federation chairman, who reports to the district chairman, who in turn compiles the report and submits it to the State chairman on finance. Even in this State complete financial statements are not available, but 12 out of 15 districts reported that they raised and spent, during 1924, $160,000. This amount financed various projects, including nutrition, scholarships, and school equipment and play equipment. Three types of organizations, local, State, and National, present three kinds of financing. Membership dues for the national organization are 5 cents per capita for members in each local organization; the State organizations receive a like amount. Local organizations may tax themselves for any amount, and there is a wide range in the amounts which they actually raise. Besides the per capita dues, the national organization of parents and teachers receives the income of a small endowment fund, from loan papers, from bequests, from the annual child welfare day contributions, and from life memberships.
Funds for local parent-teacher associations are raised by numberless methods apart from the per capita dues—by salvage shops, bazaars, county fairs, moving-picture shows, food sales, fathers' dinners, carnivals, teas, plays, candy sales, dances, card parties, penny drives, minstrel shows, etc.
From the incomplete report of parent-teacher associations of Georgia, it appears that more than $120,000 has been raised and expended by the parent-teacher association for school and association libraries, school lunches, family service work, scholarships,
school and athletic equipment, medical inspection and clinics, scholarship loan funds, and other purposes.
In another Southern State, Mississippi, the parent-teacher associations are reported to have contributed during 1923–24 a total of over $66,000 for health programs, school and play-ground equipment, libraries, hookworm tests, student loan funds, free lunches to needy children, and aiding school authorities in enforcing the attendance law.
In Delaware the organization is financed by the per capita dues, but it is promoted also by the Service Citizens of Delaware. During 1923–24 nearly $18,500 was expended by the Service Citizens on the parent-teacher associations.
In Virginia, two organizations serve the public schools, the Community League of Virginia and the State parent-teacher association. The community league, with a reported membership in 1924 of 37,107, is financed by State funds, a community fund, the Laura Spelman Foundation, subscribers, the Virginia Tuberculosis Association, the Carnegie Foundation, and local league dues. The budget of the Virginia community leagues for a year is $26,625. Local leagues report that they raised $165,125 during 1924.
SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATIONS AND STUDENT LOAN FUNDS Loan funds, under several titles, have been promoted by a committee of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, which does not furnish funds but promotes the idea throughout the States, acting as clearing house for information on methods of procedure.
In a number of States student loan funds or scholarship foundations have been the means of keeping children in school who could not be maintained by their parents. Many children are kept in the grammar grades or the high school, and a few are sent to college or teacher training schools. In some organizations the children are required to give a note for the loan; in others no pledge is required, but it is expected that the loan will be paid back as soon as the student begins to earn.
The California parent-teacher associations have conducted this work since 1923. The Kansas City (Mo.) council of parent-teacher associations has established a scholarship foundation which is financed by gifts from circles and by private contributions and by one-fourth of the income of the council.
Twenty-three children were enabled to remain in school during 1924 by the student loan fund of the Louisville (Ky.) Parent-Teacher League. In addition to the scholarships, this organization provided car fare to 38 children. Its budget for the year amounted to upwards of $14,000.
Texas parent-teacher associations have accumulated a student loan fund of $10,000, which is handled entirely by local clubs.
The movement in Oregon for student loan funds was started in 1923. Tennessee State and local organizations have assisted at least 45 students in the university, State normal schools, high schools, and business colleges.
Michigan parent-teacher associations inaugurated a student loan fund in 1923, which provides mothers with the same amount of money that a girl or boy would earn if taken out of school and put to work. Local organizations raise the funds, and the distribution is made by superintendents of schools, county commissioners, or other county officials.
State organizations of parent-teacher associations in New Jersey Indiana, and Colorado also provide scholarship funds. In Ohio the student loan committee recommends that parent-teacher associations work through the Harmon Foundation for at least a year.
Results of an inquiry instituted by the Massachusetts ParentTeacher Association and the Massachusetts State department of education have been made public. It appears that 113 towns, out of 316, reported one or more associations each and a total of 273 associations throughout the State; 140 of them are affiliated with the State and National organizations. Thirty-seven towns reported organizations of somewhat similar character, called mothers' clubs, community clubs, etc. 'One hundred and twelve union superintendents consider the parent-teacher association a vital factor in promoting closer relationship between the school and the home; 28 replied favorably with qualifications, and 20 superintendents have not found that results have been produced; 82 superintendents depend upon these organizations to support programs for educational improvement.
The State organization of Michigan was effected in 1918, and it stood third in size of membership in 1924, when it was reported that 161 cities and towns and 97 rural communities have 521 associations, with a membership of 40,000.
The Ohio Parent-Teacher organization made a gain of 11,000 members during 1923–24, which gives to Ohio the fourth place in size. This increase is reported to be due to membership drives.
Unprecedented growth is reported in Minnesota, whose membership increased 267 per cent in one year; and in West Virginia, with a reported increase of 255 per cent in the same year. Both of these State organizations came into being in 1923. In 1923–24 Illinois showed a gain of 98 per cent in membership.

The National Congress of Parents and Teachers employed, during 1923–24, two full-time field secretaries and two part-time workei's, whose duties were to train leaders and to extend the work in districts which volunteer workers were unable to reach. This service was furnished in at least nine States. Several State associations, including North Carolina, Texas, Massachusetts, and Virginia, employ field secretaries.
Thirty-three standing committees and one "bureau" constitute the machinery through which the National Congress of Parents and Teachers works. The standing committees are in five departments, which are under the general supervision of vice presidents. The committees have come into existence from time to time to meet definite needs. The committees assigned to the department of organization and efficiency include parent-teacher associations in churches, preschool circles, child welfare, child-welfare magazine, literature, membership, and publicity. Six committees function under the department of extension, parent-teacher associations in colleges, in high schools, in grade schools, and study circles.
Committees on children's reading, home economics, home education, social standards, standards of literature, and thrift are grouped under the department of home service; and under the department

Your wedding is coming fast. Wedding is when a woman along with a guy, start on a new journey. Since you can imagine, the clearest theme for weddings in the fall would contain leaves. Be sure to consult the owner to see whether you'll be in a position to have your wedding on their beach. Weddings and flowers go together.
For an extremely formal and refined appearance, the bouquet could be made out of creamy roses accented with pure white stephanotis. For example, it could be a solid bouquet made of tiny orchids or calla lilies. Designer silk bouquets or silk flowers could possibly be expensive but you can save yourself money by creating your own bouquet.
Choose based on the way you mean to carry the bouquet. It doesn't follow that the bouquet will be ugly as it doesn't include the flowers you desire. Bridal bouquets and other wedding flowers are merely a little area of the planning, but they are sometimes a time-consuming affair.
Wedding bouquet is just one of the most essential elements of the wedding planning. Creating your own wedding bouquets will help you save you a lot of dollars on your wedding flowers. If you need a dramatic wedding bouquet, then you can't fail with burgundy mini calla lilies.

Summary:The EPA's and the Bureau of Land Management's new rules regulating methane emissions and fracking on public lands will face challenges.
The advent of hydraulic fracturing or "fracking" has been a boon for the energy industry and the bane of the environmental community. Fracking technology quickly outpaced regulations and environmental statutes, allowing fracking companies to operate mostly unimpeded. The Environmental Protection Agency and the Bureau of Land Management are issuing new rules to regulate methane emissions and fracking on public lands respectively. Both rules tread new ground in fracking regulation and in turn invite litigation from industry and environmental advocates. Where these rules settle in 2016 will set the tone for future energy industry regulations.
When most people think of greenhouse gases, they think of carbon dioxide. Yet, methane (aka natural gas) is 25 times more potent at trapping heat in the atmosphere than its better known gaseous cousin. The Obama administration's Clean Power Plan has set lofty goals to cut greenhouse gas emissions. Now for the first time, the EPA will regulate methane emissions from natural gas and oil production. The proposed rule creates New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for new and modified sources in the natural gas, and oil industries. These industries, as well as environmental advocates, may challenge the EPA's actions under the Clean Air Act.
Under Section 111(b) of the Clean Air Act, the EPA may propose nationwide performance standards for new or modified stationary sources. A stationary source is any building, structure, facility or installation that emits or may emit any air pollutant. Under the new rule, methane emissions from new and modified sources will be regulated in all stages of production, from extraction and processing, to transmission and storage. According to the EPA, there are more than 11,000 new fracked wells each year.
The industry argues the rule is unnecessary and prefers the existing voluntary "Methane Challenge Program," which has shown some success in reducing emissions. On the other side, environmental advocates argue the EPA has not gone far enough. The proposed rule will be insufficient to meet emissions reduction goals because of its exclusive focus on new and modified sources. A study from ICF International found that in 2018, 90 percent of methane emissions will come from pre-2011 sources, rendering this rule ineffective. Some environmental advocates claim it will be impossible to meet emissions reduction goals without regulating existing sources.
While the EPA's proposed rule focuses on one specific pollutant, the BLM has taken the opposite approach and set out to regulate a wider range of issues fracking presents on public lands. The new rule, issued in March 2015, addresses a slew of issues ranging from disclosure requirements, disposal techniques and drilling on tribal lands. However, in October 2015, a Wyoming federal district court judge granted an injunction against the rule, on the grounds that regulation falls solely within the states' police powers and outside of the BLM's statutory authority. The challenge came from the Independent Petroleum Association of America (IPAA), the Western Energy Alliance, the Ute Indian Tribe, and the states of North Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, and Utah. The states and tribes say the rule strips them of their ability to manage the industry as they see fit. The BLM will appeal the case to the 10th Circuit, hoping to solidify its power to regulate fracking on public lands.
Ultimately, these two rules are apt to face several challenges on their way to implementation. The EPA may have to expand beyond its current action and issue an additional rule to make a serious impact on methane emissions. Conversely, the BLMs rule may need narrowing to survive its legal battle. In 2016 fracking with either find its place within the federal regulatory scheme or cements its place as an outlier industry, escaping meaningful federal oversight.

Ocean Pollution: What is Ghost Fishing & Why Should We Care?
Plastic straws make up less than 1% of the ocean's plastic pollution, but did you know that fishing gear accounts for 10%? That's right, it's estimated that 640,000 tonnes of waste fishing nets, lines and traps enter our ocean ecosystem every year. It's called "ghost fishing", and here's what we learned about it.
Imagine the amount of fishing gear used around the world by the increasing scale of commercial fisheries. Stuff gets abandoned, lost or discarded, causing serious environmental, economic and social impacts.
Before the 50s-60s, fishing nets were commonly made of biodegradable hemp or cotton. But with the invention of synthetic materials, today's nets can take 600 years to break down, releasing harmful microplastics along the way. Thousands of kilometres of nets are drifting through the sea or stuck on sea beds, and it's not easy to remove either. They entangle hundreds of thousands of dolphins, seals, whales, turtles, birds, and many more species, inevitably killing them.
The decline in fish stock affects people's livelihoods who depend on the ocean, as well as the global industry itself costing millions of dollars in losses.
It's the ocean's silent killer, hence the term "ghost fishing" or "ghost gear".
Some gear is lost through currents and storms. Some through poor management of attached anchors and floats. But unfortunately, much is deliberated dumped because it seems the easiest way of disposal or it's a way for illegal fishing boats to cover themselves up.
A great, leading initiative to know is World Animal Protection's Global Ghost Gear Initiative. The organisation sets up preventive measures with seafood supplies chains, as well as removing, reusing and recycling programs - some gear can be turned into electricity!
And it takes a "global" effort indeed. The United Nation's 2015 Sustainable Development Goals established 17 global targets, where Goal 14 calls for a significant reduction of ocean pollution of all kinds by 2025. Governments, businesses and people are encouraged to act.
As a business, AWAKE's driving motor is innovation in sustainability. In response to ocean pollution, in early 2019 we worked hard for more than six months to create a world-first: a watch made out of recycled fishing nets.
Beautiful, light, and durable - 'The G7' watch was specially created for the prestigious 2019 G7 Summit as a gift to each world leader. There, French President Emmanuel Macron presented Awake to the world as a symbol of French innovation and the way of the sustainable future.
Nets used to create the watch case are collected from the North Sea area, then cleaned and repurposed into pellets in Denmark. The watch is also solar-powered like the rest of our collections. One of our team's biggest feats.
In exciting news, we're launching 'The G7' to the public end of November so mark that date down. We're also working on new recycling locations, starting with France and Vietnam in 2020. Stay tuned and come along with us on our journey by email at the right bottom of this page.

"Twin Peaks" legislation: briefing by National Treasury
Finance Standing Committee
11 August 2015
Chairperson: Mr Y Carrim (ANC)
Meeting Summary
The 2008 global financial crisis proved that big benefits were associated with the financial sector, but also big risks. Financial sector regulation had to be intrusive, intensive and effective to make the financial sector safer. South Africa had opted for the Twin Peaks model to shift from a banking and non-banking prudential regulatory system, to a focus on prudential and market conduct objectives for both. Prudential regulation was concerned with the soundness of individual firms, and market conduct regulation with how a firm conducted itself in the market. In the current South African approach there were ±15 regulators. The question was how regulators coordinated their activities. The proposed regulatory architecture in the revised draft Financial Sector Regulation Bill consisted of prudential and market conduct authorities, known as the Prudential Authority (PA) and the Financial Services Conduct Authority (FSCA). The content of each chapter of the Bill was explained. The Bill proposed the establishment of an Ombud Council as a statutory body. It also established a Financial Services Tribunal to hear and determine reviews. Treasury submitted that the Finance Standing Committee had a role to play with regard to conceptual, strategic, policy and organisational aspects of the Bill. The critical question was whether the Bill went far enough to deal with a fragmented regulatory system.
In the discussion, Members were concerned about what was termed a plethora of regulators. Treasury had asked in the briefing that the Finance Standing Committee concern itself with whether the Bill could address regulatory fragmentation, and several Members were skeptical about that. A Member asked if the State Legal Advisers had picked up on constitutional issues. Treasury was asked what it meant by using the analogy of nuclear energy regulation, with reference to financial sector regulation. There were questions about levies, Libor, cost effectiveness and implications of the legislation for cooperatives; the role of asset managers in relation to trustees; and separate sets of principles for prudential and market conduct regulation was called for.
Meeting report
Briefing by the National Treasury on the Financial Sector Regulation Bill
The briefing was presented by Mr Ismail Momoniat, Deputy Director General: Tax and Financial Sector Policy; Mr Roy Havemann, Chief Director: Market Conducts, and Ms Cathy Gibson, International Team.
The key lesson learnt from the 2008 global financial crisis was that the financial sector is typified by big benefits, but also big risks. Financial sector regulation had to be intrusive, intensive and effective to make the financial sector safer. South Africa opted for the "Twin Peaks" model to shift from a banking and non-banking prudential regulatory system, to a focus on both prudential and market conduct objectives for both banking and non-banking. Regulators had to be able to identify and manage risks within the sector. Customers of financial services needed special protection, as they were often at a disadvantage compared to sellers, advisers and agents. Prudential regulation was concerned with the safety and soundness of individual firms, and market conduct regulation with how a firm conducted itself in the market. In the current South African approach there were ±15 regulators. The question was how regulators coordinated their activities. The failure of African Bank Limited (ABIL) pointed out the need for a stronger system of financial regulation, especially of conglomerates with subsidiary companies. The revised draft Financial Sector Regulation Bill expressly recognised the importance of the National Credit Regulator (NCR) in a regulatory system. The financial stability oversight role was firmly placed with the Governor of the South African Reserve Bank (SARB). The SARB could operate speedily to deal with rapidly emerging risks. The Governor could designate systemically important financial institutions (SIFIs) for better management and monitoring. The Bill allowed the Minister to designate new financial products.
The Committee was presented with the content of the Bill, with reference to the activities and structure of the prudential and market conduct authorities, known as the Prudential Authority (PA) and the Financial Services Conduct Authority (FSCA). Accountability of these authorities had to be strengthened, including annual reports to be tabled in Parliament. The FSCA and PA had an obligation to cooperate with all key regulators. Authorities would be empowered through standards to impose requirements to fulfill their mandates. The Bill would not change existing licensing requirements. New licences could be issued for newly designated products and services. The Bill proposed the establishment of an Ombud Council as a statutory body that would establish a single point of entry into the ombud system. The Bill established a Financial Services Tribunal, to hear and determine reviews in terms of a financial sector law.
National Treasury submitted that the Finance Standing Committee could attend to questions around conceptual, strategic, policy and organisational issues. The critical question was whether the Bill went far enough in dealing with a fragmented regulatory system.
Mr A Lees (DA) asked if the Twin Peaks legislation could prevent Libor. He asked if there was a connection between the Libor example cited and the Twin Peaks legislation.
Ms Gibson replied that the situation in South Africa was not as dangerous as in the UK. The question was how things would be shifted. Going forward, the market conduct authority had to be looking out to see where risks would come up, and respond. The crucial questions to ask would be whether an authority had jurisdiction, and if so, what kind of intervention was needed.
Mr Momoniat added that there had to be benchmarks and regulators to look at market conduct to see if business was conducted ethically.
Mr Lees referred to the determination of levies. He asked if there were safeguards with regard to nuclear energy. The top executive of the Financial Services Board (FSB) earned six or seven times what he earned as a Member of Parliament. He asked if levying would be subject to oversight by Parliament.
Mr Lees remarked that the plethora of regulators referred to would not disappear under the Twin Peaks system. It would merely be gathered under a single structure. It had to be made more cost effective.
Mr Momoniat replied that cost effectiveness was an accountability issue. There were regulators who thought that they had to have their own budget and pay themselves. On some issues South Africa differed from the international standards. One institution could hold three different opinions, prompted by fiduciary responsibilities.
Mr D Maynier (DA) noted that the Bill had been with the State Legal Advisers. He asked about key factors raised by them, and whether there were any constitutional issues. He asked about financial implications for the State, and levies on financial institutions.
Mr Havemann replied that the state legal advisers had said that there were constitutional implications related to how all relevant institutions would be levied. There would have to be an additional bill, which would be a money bill, to regulate the amount allocated to institutions through the levy. There would be no surprises with regard to levying. There would not be many financial implications for the State in the first year or two. More transparency would be brought to the funding framework. There would be a clear process to follow. The difference between South Africa and the UK was that in South Africa rates were determined by the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE), which was bound to regulatory requirements under the Financial Markets Act. Hence rates were already calculated within a regulatory framework. In the UK, rates were determined by the Banking Association. The integrity of the South African process was better, with safeguards against abuses.
Dr B Khoza (ANC) remarked that the definitions of the current and the proposed regulatory architecture were not yet clear. Except for the super-tribunal, things remained the same.
Mr Momoniat responded that SARB looked at financial stability more explicitly. It was not just one single creature. The Prudential Authority was a separate juridical entity within SARB. There was a financial surveillance department to oversee payment systems. In Australia the prudential authority was not in the central bank, under its Twin Peaks system. In the UK it had been brought back. Regulators were not necessarily purely prudential or restricted to market conduct. Even pensions had a prudential element. In the UK, the Bank of England did prudential oversight. The FSCA looked at market conduct and low risk prudential issues. Regulators had to have a risk-based approach. Banking in the old way mostly referred to money, but there were other products involved. Regulators had to talk to each other. Regulation of market conduct was being expanded. There would be change in depth. It was important to know what the financial regulator was thinking. People knew that the world was changing. The concerns of the UK Twin Peaks system was more at the micro level. Levies increased because of expansion. It would not do to first do costing and then decide on regulation. There had to be regulation. Basel 3 imperatives were more costly. Levying had to be transparent. Regulators were not to talk against each other. It was unacceptable for vindictive regulators to be punitive. Regulators were not God. It was expected that it would be asked why regulators could not see failure coming. Hard questions still had to be asked about what could have been done better. Regulators had to be accountable to Parliament, lest they bury their own mistakes. He did not agree with Mr Lees that regulatory executives were paid five times as much as MPs.
Dr Khoza asked what would happen to cooperatives. She asked if it would no longer resort under prudential.
Mr Momoniat replied that cooperatives would be dealt with under regulations.
Dr Khoza asked for clarity about how pension funds were to be regulated.
Dr Khoza referred to the analogy of nuclear energy as a risk issue. It might be necessary to engage with other parliamentary committees on the matter. Inherent risk had to be determined. Nuclear risk could not be dealt with in an offhand manner. This risk was a widely discussed issue and had to receive serious attention. South Africa was being placed in a different light. The IMF had raised the issue.
The Chairperson remarked that there could be difficulties with the Bill with regard to how financial institutions were regulated. The National Credit Act was under the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI). Treasury had to go through the Bill with the DTI, to see if there was agreement among the two departments about holding regulators to account. Procurement issues related to nuclear energy had been raised with the Chairperson of the Energy Portfolio Committee, and had to be raised again. The Committee could meet with that Committee, and possibly Public Enterprises. The financial implications of nuclear energy had to be known. The Energy Portfolio Committee had to call a meeting with the Finance Standing Committee and the Public Enterprises Portfolio Committee.
Mr Maynier called on Treasury to present an assessment of nuclear issues.
Mr Momoniat replied that the nuclear analogy had been in use for some years. Financial sector regulation was compared to nuclear energy regulation because both were associated with big benefits and big risks. Nuclear energy had to be kept safe. There was a nuclear regulator responsible for adhering to safety practices. It was not a comment on nuclear energy as such, but rather on systemic risks. Regulators also had to reduce risks relevant to flying planes. There had been a real meltdown in 2008, with enormous implications. The importance of looking at systemic risks had emerged from that. From a regulatory perspective risks were controllable. Not only regulation was needed, but also supervision. The lesson to be learnt from the 2008 global crisis was that the financial sector could cause meltdown. When there were problems, it had to be asked why it was there. With regard to the failure of African Bank, it could be asked what regulators could have done better. But regulators were not God. They could not prevent bank failure.
Dr Khoza remarked that more attention had to be paid to asset managers. It was not proper for asset managers to deal with pension funds. Asset managers had to make decisions about what to invest in. Trustees were not financial managers. It had to be decided where asset managers fitted in, in the scheme of things.
Mr Momoniat replied that the Twin Peaks legislation dealt with asset managers. It was probably a market conduct issue. Trustees did not know how to deal with retirement funds, and had to depend on asset managers. It had to be asked how trustees did their jobs, especially when they represented workers. It was not good practice to give a blank cheque to asset managers. Trustees could and had to play a role. It was asset managers who convened trustee functions. Regulators had to have governing powers. Resolutions had to be in place. Government had to intervene when necessary. A way had to be found to make asset managers accountable to the Executive and to Parliament. Ombuds were getting numerous complaints because asset managers were not doing their work. It could not be sorted out by internal mechanisms. Feedback mechanisms had to be considered. A regulator who acted punitively, out of vindictiveness, had to be fined or even put in jail.
Dr Khoza urged that Treasury provide a set of principles to govern prudential and market conduct regulation. Although there was overlap, there had to be separate sets of principles.
Mr Maynier noted that the Bill had been referred back to Treasury by the state law advisors. He asked if the only constitutional issue was around levies.
Mr Momoniat responded that it was not as yet a formal issue. There had to be standards. In a democracy all legislation moved through Parliament. The question was whether there was transparency. Regulators had the power of law. The question was how they handled issues. They would be granted quite draconian powers, but it had to be exercised in accord with the Constitution. There was a process for standards. It was similar to that of legislation. Regulators could not just issue decrees.
Mr Maynier again asked if the state law advisers had indeed raised constitutional issues, and if so, what this was.
Mr Havemann replied that there were no constitutional issues. There was merely advice on how to deal with levies. The Bill had been certified, which meant that there were no significant constitutional issues. Treasury would take advice on constitutional issues.
The Chairperson agreed with Mr Havemann that the Bill had been certified, hence there could not be constitutional issues. If anything was henceforth found to be unconstitutional, it could be dealt with in due course.
Mr D Van Rooyen (ANC) asked about cooperation between the NCR and other regulators.
Mr Momoniat replied that financial inclusion was one of the key objectives of the legislation. There were political disagreements between constituencies, and conflicts of interest. Yet there was a healthy tension in the system. Treasury had to ensure that people hear each other, and that there was fair practice. With regard to market conduct, all regulators were not effective. People had to understand broader reforms. Many did not see the bigger picture. There was much ill-feeling among regulators in the UK, but in Australia it was different. Regulators had to be able to see one face of government.
The Chairperson concluded that there would be further engagement with National Treasury
The Chairperson adjourned the meeting.

When my daughter asked me how my day went Friday, I was taken back. Not because I was surprised that she cared about my day. Her question just happened to be late. Nevertheless, my initial response was, it was okay—nothing exciting.
I am the assistant principal at an alternative school so a day in which nothing exciting happens can be a pretty good day. My daughter didn't see it that way and she kinda felt sorry for me. I knew I had to search deeper. And then it hit me.
I did have something positive to share with her. A close friend of mine had heard some good news—awesome news really. He was so excited and as happy as I had heard him in years.
And so, you know what? So was I. His good news made me happy and I carried that joy with me with rest of the day.
Happiness doesn't have to be a solo act. In fact, it rarely is. Think back to the times when you were your happiest or when you experienced the most joy. I bet it involved others. And I bet at least half of the time it involved someone else reaching one of their goals or someone else shining, not you.
We all know that laughter is contagious. Just try watching a video of a baby laughing and giggling without laughing too. It's almost impossible. The same is often the case with happiness. If we witness someone else experiencing happiness or joy, we often feel happy and joyful too.
What does this have to do with education?
We have all experienced moments of joy and happiness that had nothing to do with us and everything to do with what our students were experiencing or sharing at the time.
Maybe it's the 6-year-old student who skips into class and can't wait to share with you what she did over the weekend. She got to bake cookies with her grandmother and it was the best day ever. Her grandmother even let her lick the bowl and have an extra cookie. But don't tell her mom she pleads, she doesn't want to get in trouble.
What about the middle school student that just found that the girl he has a crush on, likes him too. You know that this budding romance won't last long, but his happiness brings a smile to your face. You'll be there when it is over and you'll be there when he has his next crush.
Finally, how about when the high school senior that you've been working with since 9th grade shows you their acceptance letter to the college of their dreams. They can't believe it, even though you can because you've been watching them grow for the past four years.
You see, we may have days that are tough, stressful and just plain suck. But, if we can take our focus off ourselves and what we are going through, I am certain we can find students who can lift us up. Or even if we are having a good day, students have the power to make it even better. I had one such day several years ago.
These are the folks that you spend the majority of your waking hours with. You laugh with them and you cry with them. During the course of a school year, you will all have ups and downs. And it's hard not to take on the stress and frustrations of those that we are close with.
Since that is the case, why don't we try harder to share in our colleagues' joy? I know we have baby showers, birthday parties and such. But what about day to day victories? We're all not going to have them individually, but we will have them collectively.
Maybe at the end of the day you and your team, or your partner or your staff come together and share what went well. As I mentioned, we all won't have victories every day. But someone in the room will. That is a reason to be happy. That is a reason to smile and just knowing that someone else experienced a victory, has the potential to turn your day around. If you allow it.
Parents love to hear good news. Most often though, the calls they receive from us are not pertaining to positive occurrences. I am guilty and I must get better at this. I am certain if the only time I ever heard from my kids' schools was when they did something wrong, I would not look forward to hearing their calls.
Additionally, parents have jobs and lives and difficult days too that have nothing to do with their children. But like us, their day could be turned around by hearing about someone else's good news. More specifically, we have the power to lift parents up just by sharing something good about their child. It doesn't need to grand and it doesn't need to take long. Sometimes a 30 second phone call is all that's needed.
Close your eyes. No wait a minute, this is an article and you have to read the words. Anyway. Just imagine if you were having a bad day. Nothing seemed to be going right. You couldn't wait to get home so you could just rest and start over. Then, just when you couldn't feel any lower, you get a call from your kid's school. The school counselor called to tell you what a great kid you have. The counselor had observed your son standing up for someone who was being teased and they just had to let you know. All of the sudden you realized that you had a good day.
Last Friday
So, while I didn't have any exciting or particularly great news to share with my daughter about my Friday—my friend had a great day. And that was enough to make my day good too. There will be days when great things might not happen to you or for you. That's okay. Look around. And you'll find all the happiness you need.

Thursday Night Scallops
This was Thursday night's dinner after an exhausting day. I had frozen some fresh scallops about a week ago, so I thawed them in a bowl of warm water while I grabbed some boxed greens and made a quick vinaigrette with olive oil, white wine vinegar, a smidge of dijon mustard, salt and brown sugar. Top off the greens with seared scallops and sprinkled chopped chives and black pepper.
