Wohler Ships 3G 16-Channel Audio Monitors With OLED Screen Technology
HAYWARD, Calif. â Aug. 25, 2009 â Wohler Technologies Inc. today announced that the company's AMP1-16-3G and Dolby® E-capable and Dolby Digital Plus ready AMP1-E16-3G 16-channel multirate audio monitors, equipped with OLED (organic light emitting diode) screen technology, are now shipping. With a straightforward control interface and the same look and feel made popular by Wohler's acclaimed AMP2-16-3G 16-channel audio monitor, these monitoring systems offer ease-of-operation that simplifies the most complex multichannel and surround applications. With superior screen performance and 3G support, AMP1-16-3G and AMP1-E16-3G are smart, forward-looking additions to any fixed or mobile broadcast facility.
"Featuring intuitive interfaces, flexible metering parameters, the latest in display technology, and support for the newest surround format, our new AMP1 audio monitors offer the robust performance required for today's DTV signal chain," said Kim Templeman-Holmes, vice president of global sales and marketing at Wohler. "We're pleased to announce shipping of the AMP1-16-3G and AMP1-E16-3G, our first 1RU 16-channel 3G audio/video monitors, and we're confident that broadcasters will find them a convenient solution for their multichannel monitoring needs."
Equipped with dual selectable 3G/HD/SD inputs, the AMP1-16-3G and AMP1-E16-3G provide monitoring for up to 16 channels of embedded audio within a single multirate SDI signal. Two of the unit's three OLED screens provide simultaneous monitoring of 16 audio channels with flexible options for high-resolution 180-segment audio metering. Depending on the operation, the screens may display video or data, setup and configuration controls, active help, or alerts notifying the operator if signals fall out of compliance with ITU-1770/1771 standards. With their unparalleled contrast ratio and clarity, these OLED screens enhance the AMP1-16 units' suitability for applications requiring both performance and cost-efficiency.
The fully digital system architecture of the AMP1-16-3G and AMP1-E16-3G features high-fidelity class-D amplifiers for absolute reproduction of the embedded signal. Flexible assignment of directional signals allows the operator to configure the monitor to the specific needs of a production. Likewise, user-selectable metering functions and eight user-defined presets provide speedy configuration of the monitor to meet various operational and programming requirements. Newly introduced readiness for Dolby Digital Plus simplifies monitoring for HD broadcasts with up to 7.1 channels of surround sound.
More information about the AMP1-16-3G/AMP1-E16-3G audio monitors is available at www.wohler.com.

The Borrowers is a children's fantasy novel by the English author Mary Norton, published by Dent in 1952. It features a family of tiny people who live secretly in the walls and floors of an English house and "borrow" from the big people in order to survive. The Borrowers also refers to the series of five novels (The Borrowers and four sequels) that feature the same family after they leave "their" house.[2]
The Borrowers won the 1952 Carnegie Medal from the Library Association, recognising the year's outstanding children's book by a British subject.[3] In the 70th anniversary celebration of the medal in 2007 it was named one of the top ten Medal-winning works, selected by a panel to compose the ballot for a public election of the all-time favourite.[4]
Harcourt, Brace and Company published it in the U.S. the next year with illustrations by Beth and Joe Krush.[2][1]
All five Borrowers novels feature a family surnamed Clock: Pod, Homily and their spirited teenage daughter, Arrietty. In the first book they live in a house reportedly based on The Cedars where Norton was raised. The sequels are titled alliteratively and alphabetically: The Borrowers Afield (1955), The Borrowers Afloat (1959), The Borrowers Aloft (1961), and The Borrowers Avenged (1982). All were originally published by J. M. Dent in hardcover editions.[5] Puffin Books published a 700-page trade paperback omnibus edition in 1983, The Complete Borrowers Stories (ISBN 0-14-031666-3) with a short introduction by Norton.[2]
The primary cause of trouble and source of plot is the interaction between the minuscule Borrowers and the "human beans", whether the human motives are kind or selfish. The main character is teenage Arrietty, who often begins relationships with Big People that have chaotic effects on the lives of herself and her family, causing her parents to react with fear and worry.
As a result of Arrietty's curiosity and friendships with Big People, her family are forced to move their home several times from one place to another, making their lives more adventurous than the average Borrower would prefer. After escaping from their home under the kitchen floorboards of an old English manor they finally settle down in the home of a caretaker on the grounds of an old church.
Along the way, they meet a cast of colourful characters: other Borrowers, including a young man around Arrietty's age who lives outdoors and whose only memory of his family is the descriptive phrase, "Dreadful Spiller", which he uses as a name (introduced in The Borrowers Afield), the Harpsichord family who are relatives of the Clock family, and Peregrine ("Peagreen") Overmantel; and also Big People such as Mild Eye the gypsy, Tom Goodenough, the gardener's son, and Miss Menzies, a sweet but overly helpful woman.
The short, separate book Poor Stainless (1966) was revised as a novelette and re-published posthumously with a short author's note in 1994 (Viking UK, 0-670-85427-1). The narrative, told by Homily to Arrietty, occurs before the first of the full-length Borrower novels, and concerns a small adventure Stainless has when he gets lost. (Like most Borrower names "borrowed" from human objects Stainless is named after items in the kitchen cutlery drawer.)
Fourteen-year-old Arrietty Clock lives under the floorboards of a house with her parents, Pod and Homily. As Borrowers, they survive through Pod's "borrowing" of items from the "human beans" who live in the home above the floor. One day, Pod comes home shaken after borrowing a toy tea cup. After sending Arrietty to bed, Homily learns that he has been "seen" by one of the big people — a boy who had been sent from India to live with his great-aunt while recovering from rheumatic fever. Remembering the fate of their niece Eggletina, who wandered away and never returned after (unbeknown to her) her father had been seen and the big people had brought in a cat, Pod and Homily decide to warn Arrietty. In the course of the ensuing conversation, Homily realizes that Arrietty ought to be allowed to go borrowing with Pod.
Several days later, Pod and Arrietty go on a borrowing trip to retrieve fibres from a doormat for a scrubbing brush. Arrietty wanders outside where she meets the (human) Boy, and develops a friendship with him. At one point, Arrietty tells the Boy that there cannot be very many of his kind but there are many of her kind. He disagrees and tells her of times when he had seen hundreds and even thousands of big people all in one place. Arrietty realizes that she can't prove that there are any other Borrowers left in the world besides herself and her parents, and is upset. The Boy offers to take a letter to a badger sett two fields away where her Uncle Hendreary (father of Eggletina), Aunt Lupy, and their children are supposed to have emigrated. On a later borrowing trip, she manages to slip the letter under the doormat where the Boy agreed to look for it.
Meanwhile, Arrietty has learned from Pod and Homily that they get a "feeling" when big people approach. She is concerned that she didn't have a feeling when the Boy approached, so she practises by going to a certain passage over which the cook, Mrs Driver, often stands. She overhears Driver and the gardener, Crampfurl, discussing the Boy. Mrs Driver is annoyed that the boy continually disturbs the doormat and Crampfurl is concerned about him after seeing the Boy in a field calling for "Uncle something" after the Boy asked him if there were any badger setts in the field. Crampfurl is convinced the Boy is keeping a ferret.
Arrietty becomes anxious and sets off on her own to find the Boy. As it turns out, he did find her letter, delivered it, and returned with a response: a mysterious note asking her to tell Aunt Lupy to come back. Pod then discovers Arrietty talking to the Boy and takes her home. Pod and Homily are frightened because the Boy will probably figure out where they live. They turn out to be right but the Boy, instead of wanting to harm them, brings them gifts of dollhouse furniture from the nursery. They experience a period of "borrowing beyond all dreams of borrowing" as the Boy offers them gift after gift. In return, Arrietty is allowed to go outside and read aloud to him.
Mrs Driver, in the meantime, notices a few items missing and thinks someone is playing a joke on her. She stays up late and catches the Boy bringing his nightly gift to his new friends. She sees the Borrowers and finds their home. The Boy tries to rescue the Borrowers, but Mrs Driver locks him in the nursery. At the end of three days, the Boy is to be sent back to India. Mr Driver cruelly takes him to the kitchen before he goes to see the ratcatcher to smoke the Borrowers out of their home. The Boy manages to slip away and break off the grating outside. He never gets to see the Borrowers escape since the cab comes to take him away.
His sister (a young Mrs May, the narrator at the beginning and end of the book) later visits the home herself and goes to the badgers' sett and leave gifts there, which are gone the next time she checks. However, the novel ends on an ambiguous note when she tells Kate that when she returns to the badgers' sett she finds a book she believes to be Arrietty's book of "Memoranda" - and that the writing in it bears a striking similarity to that of her brother.
Perhaps surprisingly, the first of the Borrower novels opens with a framing story, with the old Mrs May talking to young Kate about Borrowers, and her discovery of them as a young child. The frame hints at some further conclusion that connects either Kate, or Mrs May as a child, with the main story of Pod, Homily and Arrietty. However, by the end of the first novel, the hint has been forgotten, and in fact neither Kate nor Mrs May (nor Mrs May's brother) reappear in any of the later novels. The frame has a beginning, and promises something further, but does not come to a satisfactorily explicit conclusion. Readers of the whole sequence must eventually accept that the author "nodded", and the real narrative focus is the Borrowers themselves, and not the humans who appeared at the start. (The same kind of frame-start with no frame-end also occurs in E.R. Eddison's fantasy novel The Worm Ouroboros (1922), where the story begins as a drug-induced dream, but the dreamer is never returned to at the end. Similarly, May Gibbs' children's fantasy Prince Dandelion (1953) begins with the frame-story of Bill Bandicoot telling a story on a rainy day that happens to be his birthday, but the garden-punning story that follows does not return to Bill at the end.)
There have been several screen adaptations of The Borrowers:

Wonderful stay! The cottage was exactly as described and pictured, very clean and well-stocked with essentials. We used both the kitchenette and BBQ grill. The area is very quiet and peaceful, nicely landscaped too with lighted walkways. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to the Big Island! Mahalo!
The cottage is very clean, very spacious, and the location is lovely. It is located in a very nice rainforest. I was there with my girlfriend and we enjoyed staying in the cottage. We recommend this place.
The check-in and check-out went great. Georges was very responsive and flexible. Georges was also very welcoming when we met him.
Staying at George and Barbara's was an absolutely delightful experience. They have a beautiful piece of property that feels at once remote and wild and is immaculately maintained. We stayed in their "Lavender Cottage" which was clean, comfortable, private, and really cute. They are low-maintenance, easy hosts who were very responsive to our questions and needs and made sure that we knew how to get there. George also gave some great recommendations for other places to see and things to do in other parts of the island, which we gratefully took up! This felt like such a special, secluded place - and an experience of the island we would otherwise never have had. Definitely recommend!
i have only terrific things to say about this space. exceptionally beautiful, quaint, and in a perfect location if youre looking to hide out a bit. the space itself is very homey and and welcoming. the only mild downside is due to the location of the home (in the forest on a volcano) the wifi is a bit weak... but then again.. when youre staying in a rainforest- do you really need to be connected to the outside world? it didnt bother me one bit.
This place was very quiet, peaceful, and serene, just what I had been looking for. The unit looked great on Air B&B, and was even better that I expected upon arrival. Well appointed and in a great location away from the tourist areas. Very comfortable bed; slept like a baby the whole time. Did not get to meet George & Barbara personally, as they were away at the time, but their on-site person was great, offering much info on things to see and do in that area. Communication was good throughout the process. Would stay here again when on Hilo side of Hawaii. Thank you!
My boyfriend and I had a fantastic experience staying here. We arrived a few hours after we thought we would be there, and George was so nice and came out to show us where our cabin was. It was extremely clean, had a kitchen with all the cooking gear we needed, and the grounds were beautiful. Close to lots of cool stuff in the Pahoe area. The bed was very comfortable as well! Hope you have a great trip!
the place is just great. quiet and cleaning. Mrr George is so kind and thoughtful. I liked this place very much. a fantastic thing is that A kind of bird, never know what looks like, sings whole night with "bi bo, bi bo". George prepared very nice tropical fruits for us. If i have chance, this place will be my choice again. one problem is that I came in the evening and It was so dark that I could not find the place and GPS did not provide a accurate site. the mobile signal was very bad there. So, just remind "don't come too late".

Artist: Lee Ranaldo
Album: Between the Times And the Tides
Genre: Rock
Every time I look up, I smile and see your pretty face
I can't help but feeling we're living in a state of grace
Today the sun is shining, it's never gonna fade away
The sky on the water is brightening, don't think it all of yesterday
Was it something I said back to you?
Was I wrong in the head, escaping the truth?
Every time I look up and step into your mirror today
The little morning woke up to clear the air up, as a sage would say
Mirrors can deceive but this time I'm sure I'm seeing straight
Because this lonely feeling is falling to the game
Was it something I said back to you?
Was I wrong in the head, escaping the truth?
Everybody is here again, back on the island hanging out
Everybody is on the mend, everybody is all played out
The water is such a mirror today, another thought in our head
The past is the past, it all fades away as the sun turns red
Am I here again? Wherever we're home
You'll be my friend again when we're all alone
You can't, you can't take this spirit home
We're either here in the summer end
Or somewhere out on the road

Do you have a scam like the Texas State Troopers Association in your state?
You know, make a contribution and get a decal to slap on your car's back window to "avoid the next ticket"...
The following paragraph came off the Texas Attorney General's website: Consider, for example, the Texas State Troopers Association (TSTA), which hires professional telemarketers to call potential donors for contributions. While the paid solicitor might have a good sales pitch urging potential donors to support the state police, much of the money raised by TSTA doesnt actually go to officers or their families. According to a recent IRS filing by the TSTA, its telemarketing efforts yielded $3.59 million through telephone solicitations. Of that amount, more than 75% or $2.78 million was spent on professional fundraising fees. The IRS documents also indicate the organization spent just $10,800 on trooper death benefits; $22,000 on a trooper event; and $72,000 on contract lobbyists.

I do believe here in Arkansas we have 2 different scams going on. One is the Arkansas State Troopers Association and Ithink the other one is the Arkansas Policeman's Association. Iused to give to them back in the early nineties, but Iquit giving to them when Istarted getting calls every day from them asking for contributions.

We get calls pretty often wanting money for the ISP retirement and some benefit fund.I tell them that I just happen to be taking donations for my own retirement fund and ask them if they would like to donate. I haven't got a donation yet but neither have they.

We have them here as well. I had a sticker on my truck years ago when I got pulled over by the GSP. Ihad been drinking a bit and made the reference as I tapped on the sticker on my backglass " how bout cut be a break man. Igive to you guys every year". All I got was the glare from his sunglasses, a remark about how they didn't see any of that money, and a little yellow piece of paper.
I shouldn't have even asked about the damn break.I still give to them every now and then.
My mind thinks in broken English. It's so bad I think I need to find me a translator. 2009 Polaris 850 XP ~~~~~~~~ ><((((0> |

David05, through the magic of the internet that is available to YOU...
Your Illinois Attorney General sez..... Some Facts About Police and Firefighter Solicitations Some police and firefighter organizations are not charitable but instead are unions or social groups that will not use your donation for charitable purposes. Police officers and firefighters never know you contributed. Any coercive statement, direct or subtle, that infers that giving is a way to get better protection or special treatment is a crime and should be reported to the respective police department, the States Attorney and the Attorney Generals office. Having the words police or firefighter in an organizations name does not mean police or firefighters are members of the group. Paid professional fund-raisers make most of the solicitations for police and firefighter organizations. Professional fund-raisers often charge 80 to 90% of your contribution as a fee. Advertising in so-called ad books will probably not reach the general public, and usually less than 20% of the money you contribute benefits the police, firefighters or community. Donations to some police or firefighter groups may not be tax deductible. go here to search by name: http://www.illinoisattorneygeneral.gov/charities/search/index.jsp

Analysts critical of SFX Entertainment CEO bid price, NY Post says
SFX Entertainment (SFXE) CEO Robert Sillerman's recent stock bid for his company provoked negative reactions from some analysts, reports the New York Post. Albert Fried analyst Rich Tullo currently has an SFX price target of $7.00, has called the $4.75 offered price per share "an insult," and encouraged the company to solicit bids from AEG, Live Nation (LYV), and MSG Entertainment (MSG). Maglan Capital CIO Steven Azarbad said "it's definitely worth more than $10 a share" and highlighted the $12 target from Stifel's Ben Mogil.

On The Fly: Closing Wrap
The Wall Street averages had a relatively quiet open and remained in a tight range for most of the session. The market moved to the high end of its range by mid-afternoon, which pushed the Dow and S&P to new highs and the Nasdaq ever closer to its 5,000 level. There was little momentum behind the move and the averages eventually faded, closing nearly unchanged for the session. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., new home sales slipped 0.2% to a 481K annual pace in January, which was better than the expected 2.3% decline to a 471K rate. The DOE petroleum inventory report showed crude stockpiles grew by 8.4M barrels in the week of February 20, versus expectations for a 4M barrel increase. In China, HSBC and Markit's flash purchasing managers' index for February came in at 50.1, which was above the consensus outlook of 49.7 and represented a four month high. COMPANY NEWS: Shares of Hewlett-Packard (HPQ) dropped $3.82, or 9.92%, to $34.67 after the PC, printer and server maker reported lower than expected Q1 revenue and cut its FY15 EPS view and free cash flow outlook, citing separation costs and foreign exchange headwinds. However, analysts at Citigroup, Bernstein, and Brean Capital all recommended buying the stock on weakness in separate notes to investors today. Later in the day, Bloomberg reported, citing sources, that HP is in talks to make its biggest acquisition in several years by potentially acquiring Aruba Networks (ARUN), sending shares of the WiFi equipment maker up $3.86, or 21.0%, to $22.24. Shares of Aruba competitor Ruckus Wireless (RKUS) also gained 66c, or 5.89%, to $11.86 after Bloomberg's report on potential M&A in their space... Chesapeake Energy (CHK) slid $1.90, or 9.56%, to $17.98 after reporting worse than expected earnings amid the recent plunge in energy prices and announcing lower capital spending plans for 2015. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers was Benefitfocus (BNFT), which jumped $10.85, or 47.24%, to $33.82 after reporting Q4 earnings and disclosing that Marsh & McLennan (MMC) subsidiary Mercer took a 9.9% stake in the company. Also higher was SFX Entertainment (SFXE), which gained $1.09, or 29.46%, to $4.79 after the company�s Chairman and CEO, Robert Sillerman, offered to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of the company not already owned by him for $4.75 per share in cash. SFX Entertainment confirmed that it received the proposal and established a special committee to review and negotiate the nonbinding offer. Among the noteworthy losers was Lumber Liquidators (LL), which plunged $18.15, or 26.39%, to $50.63 after reporting Q4 earnings per share and revenue that missed consensus expectations, warning on its associated call that an upcoming "60 Minutes" piece may cast the company in an unfavorable light, and disclosing in its annual report that the Department of Justice indicated in recent communications that it is contemplating seeking criminal charges under the Lacey Act. Also lower following their earnings reports were shares of Republic Airways (RJET), which fell $2.17, or 14.49%, to $12.81, and LendingClub (LC), which dropped $3.14, or 13.28%, to $20.51. INDEXES: The Dow added 15.38, or 0.08%, to 18,224.57, the Nasdaq slipped 0.98, or 0.02%, to 4,967.14, and the S&P 500 dropped 1.62, or 0.08%, to 2,113.86.

Balak here received and entertained Balaam, whom he had invited from Pethor, among the "mountains of the east," beyond the Euphrates, to lay his ban upon the Israelites, whose progress he had no hope otherwise of arresting. It was probably from the summit of Attarus, the high place near the city, that the soothsayer first saw the encampments of Israel.

I'm in the same boat. My advice is just to stay with the regimen you're on right now, because oily skin is an acceptable trade off for having no blemishes. I recently tried to quit epiduo because adapalene (retinoid) makes me super oily, but I started breakout out horribly again.

In Topic: Estrogen Or Progesterone Causing Oily Skin/clogged Pores?!
28 September 2014 - 07:33 AM
Looking for advice from anyone who might understand which hormone is most likely to relate to overly oily skin and clogged pores! Tonight is the night I'm going to be starting the Ortho Cyclen! I'm doing some research on which hormone relates to overly oily skin and clogging- and I keep coming across Estrogen dominance. How people with too much bad estrogen will see in increase in sebum and therefore skin issues. Is it possible at all that the increase in estrogen from the Alesse(0.2) and Seasonale(0.3) is what's causing my issues? Or is this even possible because they are both considered " Low estrogen pills". I'm trying to figure out if it's that or the progestrin with high androgen levels in both those birth controls that is causing the issues? I'm also reading that progesterone with high androgenic activity increases DHT levels- which increases oily skin too.Please share your knowledge on how hormones work and which one it's most likely to be So confused, and I don't want my skin getting even worse with Ortho Cyclen being (0.4) in estrogen if that's what it is! Help!!
Elevated Free testosterone increases sebum production and is exacerbated by insulin.
The endocrine system attempts to maintain balance among the various hormones. When a particular hormone increases or decreases it can cause an imbalance of several other hormones.
Estrogen neutralizes testosterone
Progesterone neutralizes estrogen
Cortisol neutralizes DHEA
Progesterone can amplify the effects of testosterone.
In females, the primary source of free testosterone is DHEA
It's best to do a complete female hormone panel and include 8 am cortisol to understand the problem.
If you do, make sure you go to the lab on day 21 of your cycle.
I know this is an old thread, but I feel like I should clear things up. Elevated free testosterone levels do not cause oily skin. I know this for a fact because I have extremely oily skin and my free T levels are at 4.4 ng/dl. 80-90 year old men have more free T than I do (I'm 26).
(To give you an idea how oily my skin is, it's so bad that random people often walk up to me and ask me about it)

In Topic: How I Stopped My Oily Skin In 2 Weeks!
04 September 2014 - 03:00 PM
I didn't blot my skin. I tried lowering, but my eyes were extremely dry as well. I feel like it has done some permanent damage to my bones, because they pop alot now. I would not reccomend this to anybody.
What brand of vitamin A did you use?
I'm wondering what kind of vitamin A to use too. I'm going to try to do this as a last resort, I was prescribed accutane, but my insurance won't pay for it. I went through prior authorization process, and appeals, but express scripts are just complete scum bags. So I'm going to pick some up this week, but is there a certain kind I have to get?
I don't remember what brand, I think it was NOW brand. I wouldn't reccommend trying it. I started using Epiduo instead, and it's working very well.

50,000iu/day for a few weeks.
Did you try lowering the dosage? And when you were at 50,000/day you said it worked perfectly. Like no need to blot your skin at all?
I didn't blot my skin. I tried lowering, but my eyes were extremely dry as well. I feel like it has done some permanent damage to my bones, because they pop alot now. I would not reccomend this to anybody.

Tabitha Tansey is a glass artist based in rural North Shropshire. She is currently studying for an MA in Applied Art at Glyndwr University
I work in lead, tiffany and fused glass. Happiest making large windows but enjoy my kiln and smaller projects too
Hamilton Taylor Studio is Sean Taylor & Gillian Hamilton. Sean is a Lampworker and Gillian kiln forms glass.
The Glass Hub is an educational centre based in South West England where students of all abilities can learn and develop the craft of glassmaking. At The Glass Hub we provide extensive glass-working facilities alongside the support of an excellent, highly qualified and experienced team of tutors to foster individual creative growth and expertise. We offer short courses, masterclasses, longer termly technique-focused classes, and studio/equipment hire.
I founded The Clay and Glass Studio, at Ogbourne St. George near Marlborough, Wiltshire shortly after completing the Ceramics with Glass BA Course at High Wycombe in 1998
Louis graduated from the Royal College of Art with an MA in Ceramics and Glass in 2011. His professional career over the last 25 years has afforded him the opportunity to work with a number of glass practitioners in the UK and abroad.
I completed a BA Degree in Design with Surface Pattern and Glass in 2000, in 2012 I completed a Masters Degree in Design, Ceramics and Glass.
I have always been surrounded by art and a love of nature, I came to glass by accident in 1998 and have explored its properties and played with it ever since. It is this science that often leads my ideas experimenting in my studio with surfaces and textures.
I first have a sculptural approach to my art with drawings and photographs and then I choose my materials, glass is selected for its transparent, translucent or opaque qualities. Colour is secondary to the desire to create a feeling of what I am describing in glass. I like to explore form and surface using a variety of other materials combined with the glass with particular attention to the shadows that form in the surrounding environment.
The techniques I adopt for my art pieces are then also transferred to a practical collection of vessels, bowls, platters and dishes.
The heart of my creative endeavours are bound in, knowledge, truth and the joy of making.
I discovered the love of glass at Hereford college of Art where I studied for a foundation degree. I followed this up with an MA at Swansea Met. I have gone on to practice from my home studio in the Brecon Beacons.

If any of these hit your soft flesh on the right place, it would be way more lethal than any brick left on any rug. » 9/04/13 10:34pm 9/04/13 10:34pm

Life Insurance and Support in Divorce
At the beginning of each divorce case, the parties always have questions regarding how the divorce will impact their daily lives, especially their finances. One of the biggest issues, and often most disputed, is support. The parties cannot plan for their separate futures until they know whether a support order will be made and the level of support which will be ordered. Once the parties have a support order or agreement they will next consider what that support amount is intended to cover? Will my spouse have to continue paying my health insurance? Will my spouse pay for our children's health insurance? Will my spouse pay for uncovered medical and dental expenses? Will my spouse pay for extracurricular activities? Will my spouse pay for childcare? Typically these are the main concerns for divorcing parties when discussing support issues. However, it is not uncommon for family law litigants and their attorneys to forget one important issue - support in the event of the death of the paying spouse.
Life insurance can be an uncomfortable topic of discussion; however, the issue of life insurance is an extremely important subject to include in divorce settlement negotiations. In the event that the parties cannot reach a full agreement regarding all issues, they can ask the court for orders. The court has jurisdiction to address the issue of life insurance and to make appropriate orders for the parties. In cases where child and/or spousal support amounts are relatively high, it is reasonable to consider insuring the paying spouse as a form of security for support. In high conflict cases the supporting spouse may be hesitant to agree that his or her former spouse will be the beneficiary of an insurance policy on the supporting spouse's life. The supporting spouse often says "I don't want to give my former spouse more incentive to kill me". This type of argument will not likely be given much weight by a family court judge.
Through agreement or court order, once the parties determine that the supporting spouse's life should be insured as security for support, the attorneys and clients should discuss the amount of policy and which party should be responsible for the premiums. In cases where the parties take out life insurance as security for child support, the supporting spouse may be ordered to pay the life insurance premiums in the form of additional child support. If available, the parties often agree that the supporting spouse shall maintain a currently existing life insurance policy. The total amount of insurance should be based on the monthly support obligation and the number of years support will likely be paid. Each case is unique; therefore, it is important to discuss the issue of life insurance as security for support with an experienced family law attorney.
