PRIDE: Judge yourself first

All the hate letters I read don’t represent me. Seems the Candlelight people got a lot of hate. Is that what the topic on Sundays are or everyday? Lot of things I disagree with and seems some religious, or so-called religious enterprises as it’s hard to say church by my definition, fuel what we have today. We go by the Bible on this pride thing, but compare an adulterer to Jesus. You can’t make this up.

OPINION: Multiplication of division

America is divided. Ask most anyone and they would likely agree. However, you may not get consensus on the reason for the division, or where the fracture actually lays.

If you own rental property, you need to understand how trusts and LLCs work together to avoid probate and protect against liability

One of the most important parts of having a living trust designed to avoid probate is to have those assets which would normally require probate assigned to the trust. By this I mean that the trust needs to be the owner of the probate-causing assets (more technically, the Trustee of the trust is the owner, but in his or her capacity as Trustee). In Idaho, one asset that will almost always implicate the need for a probate after death is real estate. So, when I help clients establish a living trust for estate planning, I also assist them in getting their real estate retitled into their trust. This typically means preparing, executing, and recording a new deed for the client’s personal residence which names the trust as the titled owner of the property going forward (again, technically, the deed shows the Trustee of the trust as the titled owner, but in their capacity as Trustee of said trust). If a client owns more than one residence, we will be repeating this process for each.

From its inception in the 1960s (and wide use since the 1980s), the internet was designed and implemented to treat all user traffic — email, file transport, even voice and video — equally, without regard to contents or volume. It is a concept called net neutrality. As a consequence, the internet has been apolitical, treating the traffic of both liberals and conservatives without regard to their ideologies.
