Why You Need A Good Will For A Solid Estate Plan

by Sherry Hill

No matter how much money you have it is important to have a basic estate plan to protect your family and your assets after your death. An estate plan can be as simple as a last will and testament to extremely detailed to contain a power of attorney, a living will and even a trust. We’ll cover each of these tools in order.

The first and often the most important instrument to put in place is your last will and testament. A will is a legal document that outlines your wishes regarding your assets after you die. Many people make their own wills through software or forms they download off of the internet but this isn’t always a wise choice. Requirements for wills are different from state to state and are not always easy to interpret. If you don’t create a will that can be validated in probate court then your estate may be disposed of as if you never even wrote a will. The bottom line is that hiring a professional to help craft your last will and testament is a smart choice and it can be done for a reasonable fee.

Your will establishes your wishes with respect to your property, but what if you become incapacitated and can’t direct others as to your wishes? This is where powers of attorney come in to play. A power of attorney authorizes someone else to act on your behalf in business and legal affairs. A durable power of attorney allows another party to act on your behalf if you become incapacitated and are not capable of making decisions on your own. A health care power of attorney is a durable power of attorney that is specific to health care situations.

A living will communicates your intentions regarding health care if you become unable to communicate them on your own. A living will is usually created in tandem with a health care power of attorney. The living will spells out your wishes and the heath care power of attorney allows somebody else to act based upon those wishes.

Next we are going to cover Trusts. Trusts are another vehicle that allows you to direct certain types of property with the added benefit that you can place restrictions and requirements on the assets. One of the most significant advantages of trusts is that there is no court involved. This allows for immediate dispersal of assets by the trustee (the person administering the trust). Because there is no probate court involvement trusts can also bypass public record of the transactions.

Tax planning - There are a wide variety of tools that can be used to manage the tax burden at your death. These include life insurance, life insurance trusts, charitable remainder trusts, qualified personal residence trusts and more.

Now that you are familiar with some of the estate planning tools it is time to start the process. Whether you go it alone or enlist the help of a professional the first step is to create a list of all of your assets. Once you have your list of assets you will need to make a decision about what you’d like to happen to each asset upon your death. Should it go to family, your alma matter, your favorite charity or someplace else that is near and dear to you?

Estate planning can seem like a daunting undertaking, but knowing that it is very important and taking it one step at a time will help you complete the process. Hiring professionals to help you in the process is also extremely helpful and highly encouraged.

Egyptian Divers

Small Business No Comments »

Ned Middleton describes how he and a team of Divers from Diving World discovered a wreck in the Egyptian Red Sea.

I joined the M.V. Miss Nouran - and soon discovered her to be one of the finest Live-aboard Boats currently operating in the Red Sea. Easy to say I know - but, believe me, I saw much of the competition over the next three weeks and, well, you don’t want to know about some of those - much less Dive with them!

Our Dive Guide was that well known local character Ali Baba - a man who has been deaf since birth but, who can lip-read in five languages. Ali Baba is an exceptionally fine Diving Guide and Instructor with a great sense of humour and, in a world where other Diving Boats can often make things chaotic for the novice, his one outstanding quality is that he cares!

Being the week before Christmas there were only ten Divers on board a vessel equipped to take 16. Below Decks there are 6 double berths and at deck level there is a further four-man berth all with en-suite - and that means your own shower and flushing toilet. Food is served after each of the three main Dives of the day with the evening meal delayed for those who wish to get an extra night dive into an already busy schedule - and do tuck in, there is plenty.

The crew were pretty amazing and looked after our every need. We were assured that they were the best and it soon became easy to see why. They also worked very hard - one minute they were cooking, cleaning and looking after us, and the next they were manning the ropes, laying out mooring lines, driving the inflatable boat or simply helping us in and out of the water.

As with all such trips we were a fairly disparate bunch with a variety of standards, experience and background. This included two pairs of Technical Divers who had ordered Nitrox. I have yet to use mixed gases but the high level of expertise of these four Divers was going to prove most useful in the days ahead.

Consolidation for Efficiency

Other - Computers No Comments »
by Kazu Oda

Are you aware that the energy consumption by data servers in the EU is comparable to the energy required to operate 8 nuclear power plants? In this day and age in which we seek to reduce the human footprint on the globe, this amount of energy is mind boggling. A necessary focus of our technology and effort should be to reduce this consumption through developing methods of maximizing the efficiency of data servers in high demand networks.

Just such a focus has been endeavoured in the EU. A great model for the success of streamlining the efficiency of data servers is the German city of Bad Soden am Taunus. Bad Soden am Taunus is a small city of approximately 21.500 residents.

Some information needs are larger than others. The administration of large corporations and cities require immense amounts of information. The storage of that information can get costly and taxes our environment in energy usage.

consolidating and virtualizing the server’s infrastructure modernizing the city’s network the use of a virtual desktop infrastructure for the city employees consolidating the printer environment

There are products and techniques in use right now that are achieving great success in doing just that. Let’s have a look at one of them.

Memory options: Memory type- DDR-2 675 MHz (PC3200) registered DIMMs with ECC (128 bit plus ECC databus) Memory Capacity- 16 DDR2 DIMM slots (8 per processor)64GB maximum with 2 CPUS and 4GB DIMMs, standard 32GB

This greatly reduced the amount of space needed for storage by updating old hardware with new products that maximize CPU and overall performance specs. STRATO’s success was the combination of consolidation and energy efficient upgrades.

Many more case studies can be viewed at http://efficient-servers.eu/ for more information and opportunities to support this project as we continue to develop technology toward a more energy efficient IT future.

ITIL V3 Training Scheme - Is it Already Failing?

ioncube No Comments »
by William A Edwards MBCS, BA(Hons)

It has now been two years since the launch of ITIL (R) Version 3, the new version of best practice guidance for service management from the OGC (Office of Government Commerce). For these past two years, the administrators of the new qualifications scheme (APMG), together with examination institutes and training providers, have been busy getting the new ITIL Expert qualification off the ground.

But the whole thing could be dead in the water before it has even got going properly according to the most recently published figures for ITIL training. It seems that whilst the foundation course is popular for version 3, the more advanced training courses have been rather slow to take-off.

It is not really that surprising when you come to think about it because to qualify for the new ITIL Expert certificate, candidates now need to complete a very challenging curriculum of modular courses. Whereas the old V2 Service Sanager qualification took only 13 days, the new replacement qualification takes from 22 to 27 days to complete.

The new qualification schema is a three-level affair with a fourth level also scheduled. Of course, this new range of courses may be good for training providers, but the key question is: is it right for the market? The absence of a significant number of bums-on-seats seems to me to suggest that it absolutely is not.

While the V2 Service Manager qualification scheme remains open, it presents a more direct route to the V3 qualification; and that, I believe, is an important reason the V3 scheme is not yet working properly. Given a straight choice, people would rather pay less, take less examinations and get the qualification quicker after all.

It is, in my opinion, time for APMG to be decisive and act immediately to support the V3 qualifications scheme. It is finally time to axe the old V2 qualifications and really get behind the new scheme.

The Truth About Business Cards, Yellow Page Ads, And Val-Pak Coupons

ioncube No Comments »
by Sven Makowal

The business person today is faced with many decisions when it comes to marketing and advertising. How to get started and what media to use in your marketing campaigns are just a couple of the challenges you are forced to meet. Reality is that all of the options available will work to one degree or another. The key to your success, no matter what medium you select, is to differentiate yourself in a manner that appeals to your potential prospect. When you understand this, you can be successful regardless of your choice.

More often than not, people follow the generally accepted trends and styles. This happens with the clothes we wear (anyone remember Beatle Mania?), the beer we drink (what age are you?) and the way we advertise in say, the Yellow Pages. Try scanning the Yellow Pages and you will see numerous pages of similar looking business card layouts and wording. What happens is we start to subconsciously purge the look-a-likes and carry on until we see something that is out of the ordinary.

Some of the most interesting, and different, ads that I have seen appear as public service announcements. They have headlines like: Warning! Don’t Even Think of Using a Travel Agent Before Calling FREE Traveler Awareness Hotline! The copy below this ad would offer free advice on how to book the best rate for your next trip. I was scanning the travel section because I was obviously interested in taking a trip and this advertisement, because it was different, caught my eye. To make it really successful it also had an 800 number at the bottom to call for a Free Report. There was no ad sponsor so the whole presentation was non-threatening. I was given a safe way to get information I wanted without having to speak directly to a Travel Agent whose will endeavor to sell me.

This same method can be used regardless of the medium you select for your advertising. It can be Yellow Pages, Business Cards and Val-Pak Coupons. The key is to use the criteria that make it different, interesting and non-threatening. Even though the principles are basic there is an art to this type of marketing.

I have learned of a company, that over the last 12 years, has developed automated systems that allow business people to incorporate any type of marketing and/or advertising into an overall Marketing Strategy. That company is Automated Marketing Solutions or AMS. They differentiate themselves by not only providing solutions, but by educating their clients on the proper techniques to use including how to create the right message by the form of media being used. It doesn’t stop there. AMS provides the capability for a company to place their ENTIRE Marketing Program on Auto-pilot. Once a business marketing program (including voice messages, e-mails, faxes and other broadcast and mail out collateral) is compiled and sequenced, their Lead Management System or LMS provides the unique ability to control and manage the program without any further human interaction.

The benefits to this system are significant time savings on what would otherwise be labor intensive tasks and consistency in marketing messages. It also means that businesses never need worry about losing customers who misinterpreted your lack of contact for apathy. If you would like to hear more about Direct Response Marketing and how it can benefit your business, visit Automated Marketing Solutions today. You will be surprised at how quickly and economically you can implement and start benefiting from AMS tested and proven technology and experience.
