What are the Properties of Living Things and Non Living Things? 

Before we dive into the specifics, let’s clarify what exactly constitutes living and non-living things. Living things, also known as organisms, possess certain characteristics that distinguish them from non-living things. On the other hand, non-living things lack these characteristics and do not exhibit life processes. 

Living things are entities that exhibit life processes such as growth, reproduction, response to stimuli, and metabolism. They are composed of cells, which are the basic structural and functional units of life. Living organisms can be further classified into various kingdoms, including plants, animals, fungi, protists, and bacteria. 

Characteristics of Living Things

Living things share several key characteristics: 

Cellular Organization: All living organisms are composed of one or more cells. 

Metabolism: Living things require energy to carry out metabolic processes such as respiration and digestion. 

Homeostasis: Organisms maintain internal stability despite changes in their external environment. 

Response to Stimuli: Living things can detect and respond to stimuli from their environment. 

Growth and Development: Living organisms exhibit growth and undergo developmental changes throughout their lifespan. 

Reproduction: Living things can reproduce, either sexually or asexually, to produce offspring. 

Living Things Properties

Living things possess certain properties that distinguish them from non-living things: 

They can grow and develop. 

They can reproduce and produce offspring. 

They require energy for metabolic processes. 

They can respond to stimuli from their environment. 

They exhibit organization at the cellular and molecular levels. 

Non-living things are objects or substances that do not possess the characteristics of living things. They do not grow, reproduce, or respond to stimuli like living organisms. 

These are known as Non living Things.

A Brief Understanding of Non Living Things Characteristics

Non-living things do not exhibit life processes and are typically characterized by: 

Absence of Cells: Unlike living organisms, non-living things do not consist of cells. 

Lack of Metabolism: Non-living things do not require energy for metabolic activities. 

Inability to Reproduce: Non-living things cannot reproduce or produce offspring. 

No Response to Stimuli: Inanimate objects do not respond to environmental stimuli. 

No Growth or Development: Non-living things do not grow or undergo developmental changes. 

Few Non Living Things Properties

Here are a few properties of non living things, 

They do not exhibit growth or development. 

They do not reproduce or produce offspring. 

They do not require energy for metabolic processes. 

They do not respond to stimuli from the environment. 

Living things and non-living things play distinct roles in the ecosystem, with each contributing to the balance and sustainability of the environment. By understanding the differences and characteristics of these two categories, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the diversity of life on Earth.

Es muy común en estas fechas observar la procesionaria del pino (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) en las masas forestales, formando el característico bolsón blanco o caminando en hilera a través de caminos y carreteras. Estas orugas se alimentan durante el otoño y el invierno mientras se desarrollan a través de varios estadios larvarios hasta que finalmente descienden de los pinos para enterrarse bajo tierra y formar la crisálida. Tras la metamorfosis, emergen los adultos, con forma de mariposa, e inician el periodo de vuelo, en el que se aparean y ponen los huevos en las acículas de los árboles. Unos treinta días después, la puesta eclosiona y nace una nueva generación de larvas, comenzando de nuevo el ciclo biológico de estos insectos. — Elche.

Threshold Transition Spell (7) Protect the Living

The period immediately following death, from a magical standpoint, is perceived as being vulnerable for the living as for the deceased. One way of looking at it is to recognize Death as one of the pre-eminent thresholds, with as much attendant vulnerability as the Birth process. Everyone immediately present at that threshold, whether they are the dying individual or not, is exposed to some metaphysical danger.

Another way of looking at it is that when death occurs one of the psychopomps is present and may still be lingering. Is anyone else scheduled for the pick-up service or could mistakes be made? Various customs have evolved to ensure the safety of living and recently deceased alike.

Immediately turn mirrors to face the wall or cover them entirely. It is considered harmful to capture the reflection of any angels of death. In addition, it’s believed dangerously shocking should the soul of the deceased view their post-death reflection or lack thereof

Traditionally, the deceased is never left unattended. Someone must stay with them, from the moment of burial until funeral rites are complete. In places where malevolent sorcery attempts to exploit the dead, a vigil may also be kept following burial in the cemetery for specified periods of time, allowing the soul to depart and decomposition of the body to begin

Burn candles near the deceased. Some transitions ring the body with candles, others place one candle at the foot, another at the head while other traditions keep the candles burning beneath the deceased’s bed

Alimony Lawyer

Alimony is gender-neutral in Utah, meaning either spouse can request support during the divorce process. Alimony is also called “spousal support.” When considering a request for alimony, the judge will evaluate the following factors to determine the type, amount, and duration of support:

 the financial condition and needs of the supported spouse

 the recipient’s earning capacity or ability to produce income, including an evaluation of whether the recipient lost work experience or skills while caring for the couple’s children

 the paying spouse’s ability to pay support while maintaining financial independence

 the length of the marriage

 whether the recipient is a custodial parent of a child who requires child support

 whether the recipient worked in a business owned or operated by the paying spouse, and

 whether the recipient directly contributed to the increase in the paying spouse’s income by paying for education or job training during the marriage.

In addition to the above factors, the court can also consider a spouse’s fault (or marital misconduct) which caused the breakup of the marriage. In Utah, “fault” may include adultery, physical abuse or threats to the other spouse or children, or undermining the financial stability of the other spouse. It’s important to understand that the court can’t use alimony to punish a misbehaving spouse, so judges use fault in limited circumstances. Unlike child support in Utah, there is no formula for judges to use to calculate alimony in a divorce. Instead, judges’ base support amounts on the above factors and any other relevant circumstances in each case. If you and your spouse would like to maintain control over the alimony order, you can negotiate the terms in a settlement agreement and present it to the judge for approval.

The Marital Standard of Living

The purpose of alimony is for both spouses to maintain a lifestyle as close as possible to the marital standard of living. However, as a general rule in alimony evaluations, judges will look to the standard of living existing at the time of the couple’s separation. In other words, if you lived a lavish lifestyle for the first 5 years of your marriage but downsized and lived on a budget for the last 5, the court will use alimony to ensure you can maintain your current budget and lifestyle.

Duration of Alimony

Sometimes judges will award temporary alimony while the divorce is pending. Orders of temporary support terminate when the judge finalizes the divorce. For all other alimony orders, the law prohibits the judge from ordering support for longer than the length of the marriage unless the court reviews the order before the termination date and finds extenuating circumstances that require support to continue.

Terminating Alimony in Utah

Typically, the judge will set an end date for alimony in the original order. However, if the supported spouse remarries or dies, alimony terminates automatically. It’s no surprise that life goes on after a divorce. But, if the supported spouse begins cohabiting (living with) a new partner, the paying spouse can request termination of alimony. Cohabitation may terminate alimony, but only if you report it to the court and ask for support to end within one year of discovering the cohabitation.

Paying Alimony in Utah

Most alimony payments in Utah are periodic (monthly) and due on the first of every month unless the court orders otherwise. Most judges include an income withholding order for alimony, which directs the paying spouse’s employer to withhold the payments from the employee’s paycheck and forward it directly to the court. If the paying spouse doesn’t have a steady job or is self-employed, the court may order lump-sum payments or payment through property transfer. Lump-sum payments are installments, either one or several over a short period of time. Once you make the final payment, your alimony obligation to your spouse ends. Property transfers are rare, but helpful in cases where one spouse doesn’t have a steady income but has a significant amount of property that will fulfill the support order.

Modifying Alimony Orders

Unless the support order is non-modifiable, either spouse can request a review and modification (change) of alimony award if there is a substantial and material change in circumstances after the divorce. For example, if a paying spouse is disabled due to an unforeseen health issue and can’t work, the court may adjust or terminate alimony to ensure that both spouses remain financially stable. If there’s a change in circumstances that makes it difficult for you to pay support, it is important to request a review as soon as possible, and in the meantime, you must continue to pay. Failure to pay support can result in serious consequences, such as contempt hearings, fines, bank seizures, and in the most severe cases, a jail sentence. If your spouse isn’t paying support as ordered, you can file a formal petition with the court asking for help enforcing the order.

Taxes and Alimony

If you finalized your divorce on or before December 31, 2019, you can deduct your alimony payments, and your spouse must report and pay taxes on the income. However, for divorces on or after January 1, 2020, changes to the tax law eliminate both the tax deduction benefit and reporting requirements for alimony. Divorcing couples should consider the tax ramifications for both spouses before finalizing the divorce. If you’re unsure how the new tax law impacts your bottom line, you should speak to an experienced tax and divorce attorney near you.

Remarriage and Alimony in Utah

When couples divorce in Utah, the court may order one spouse to provide the other with financial support, called “alimony.” When the spouse receiving alimony (the “supported spouse”) remarries or begins living with someone else, however, the paying spouse will usually want to stop making alimony payments. Utah courts may order one spouse to pay the other alimony after a divorce, taking into account the specific circumstances of each marriage. The court may order alimony to be made in the form of a lump-sum payment, a transfer of property, or the most common type of alimony, periodic payments made until a certain date or until some event occurs. Utah judges will consider any or all of the following factors when determining alimony:

 the supported spouse’s financial needs

 the supported spouse’s earning ability

 the paying spouse’s ability to pay alimony

 the length of the marriage

 the supported spouse’s childcare duties

 whether the supported spouse worked for a business owned by the paying spouse during the marriage

 whether the supported spouse contributed to the paying spouse’s ability to earn income (for example, by paying for education or allowing the paying spouse to attend school during the marriage)

 whether one spouse was at fault in causing the divorce (for example, by domestic abuse or adultery), and

 any other factors the court deems relevant.

Impact of Remarriage on Alimony in Utah

Utah law provides that alimony ends when a supported spouse remarries, unless the divorce decree states otherwise. Sometimes, in long marriages, a divorcing couple will agree that one spouse will pay the other alimony for life regardless of whether the supported spouse remarries, but in most cases, alimony ends upon the supported spouse’s remarriage. When the supported spouse remarries, alimony ends automatically; the paying spouse does not need to file a motion or return to court for an order terminating alimony. The paying spouse can stop making alimony payments on the date the supported spouse gets remarried. If the paying spouse owed past due alimony at the time the supported spouse remarries, the paying spouse must still make those payments. Also, if the paying spouse was ordered to make a lump-sum payment or a transfer or property as alimony, he or she must still make that payment or property transfer, even if the other spouse is remarried.

Termination or Modification of Alimony In Utah

Utah law allows courts to modify or end alimony at any time if there has been a substantial change in the circumstances of either spouse after the divorce. Utah courts usually won’t consider the remarriage of the paying spouse to be a “substantial change in circumstances” for the purposes of modifying alimony. If the supported spouse has a significant increase in income or a decrease in financial needs, however, the court may reduce or end alimony payments. If you want to modify or end alimony payments in your case, you should file a motion of terminate or modify alimony in your county state court clerk’s office. The court will schedule a hearing where both you and your ex-spouse will have to appear. You should bring any evidence of the changed circumstances that support your request to change or end alimony payments. If you and your ex-spouse agree to modify alimony before the court date, you should put your agreement in writing, sign it, and submit it to the court for approval.

Impact of Cohabitation on Alimony in Utah

In Utah, all court orders for one spouse to pay the other alimony end when the supported spouse begins cohabiting with another person. Cohabitation is when two individuals live together in a romantic relationship while not married.

If you are paying alimony to your ex-spouse, and he or she begins living with another person in a romantic relationship, you’ll need to file a motion to terminate alimony with the court clerk’s office. Gather any evidence of your ex-spouse’s cohabitation to show the court (for example, photos or other proof that both individuals spend most nights at the same residence). If the judge believes you have proven that your ex-spouse is cohabiting with another person, he or she can end alimony retroactive to the date you filed your motion.

Types of Alimony

Courts may order temporary, short- and long-term alimony. Temporary alimony is granted at the discretion of the court during the divorce proceedings and before the final decree. Short-term alimony may be granted to allow the receiving party time to gain necessary skills. Long-term, or permanent, alimony may be granted to a spouse who has significant needs, and is usually reserved for lengthy marriages.

Temporary Alimony

The first type of alimony or spousal support that could be ordered in a case is temporary alimony. Typically this is alimony that is awarded during the pendency of the divorce. It allows the poorer spouse to get sufficient funds to take care of his or her needs. Temporary alimony usually lasts until a final divorce decree is entered. That means it can last for months and even years. It is extremely important, therefore, that you and your attorney make sure that all relevant financial information is presented to the judge to make sure the temporary alimony award is fair and reasonable. The judge needs to be in possession of information concerning every aspect of the parties’ income, debts, and assets from all sources to make a determination.

Transitionary Alimony

Transitionary alimony is a form of temporary alimony but is different in the sense that it is implemented in a final decree of divorce rather than prior to the divorce decree being entered. It is used to provide the spouse in need an opportunity for a specific amount of time to get an education, training, and other skills so that he or she can become self sufficient. It usually terminates with a new and permanent order which either sets a sum certain of spousal support for a specified time period or it terminates alimony altogether.

Permanent Alimony

Permanent alimony is the set amount of spousal support that the paying party will be obligated to pay for as long as the decree states. It can only be changed by a showing of substantial change in circumstances through a petition to modify.

How the Amount of Alimony is Determined

Unlike child support, which in most states is mandated according to very specific monetary guidelines, courts have broad discretion in determining whether to award spousal support and, if so, how much and for how long. In Utah there are several factors that the court will look at when it comes to spousal support, some statutes recommend that courts consider the following factors in making decisions about alimony awards:

 The age, physical condition, emotional state, and financial condition of the former spouses;

 The length of time the recipient would need for education or training to become self-sufficient;

 The couple’s standard of living during the marriage;

 The length of the marriage; and

 The ability of the payer spouse to support the recipient and still support himself or herself.

Alimony is often deemed “rehabilitative,” that is, it’s ordered for only so long as is necessary for the recipient spouse to receive training and become self-supporting. If the divorce decree doesn’t specify a spousal support termination date, the payments must continue until the court orders otherwise. Most awards end if the recipient remarries. Termination upon the payer’s death isn’t necessarily automatic; in cases where the recipient spouse is unlikely to obtain gainful employment, due perhaps to age or health considerations, the court may order that further support be provided from the payer’s estate or life insurance proceeds.

Remarriage and Alimony in Utah

When couples divorce in Utah, the court may order one spouse to provide the other with financial support, called “alimony.” When the spouse receiving alimony (the “supported spouse”) remarries or begins living with someone else, however, the paying spouse will usually want to stop making alimony payments. Utah courts may order one spouse to pay the other alimony after a divorce, taking into account the specific circumstances of each marriage. The court may order alimony to be made in the form of a lump-sum payment, a transfer of property, or the most common type of alimony, periodic payments made until a certain date or until some event occurs. Utah judges will consider any or all of the following factors when determining alimony:

 the supported spouse’s financial needs

 the supported spouse’s earning ability

 the paying spouse’s ability to pay alimony

 the length of the marriage

 the supported spouse’s childcare duties

 whether the supported spouse worked for a business owned by the paying spouse during the marriage

 whether one spouse was at fault in causing the divorce (for example, by domestic abuse or adultery), and

 any other factors the court deems relevant.

Impact of Remarriage on Alimony in Utah

Utah law provides that alimony ends when a supported spouse remarries, unless the divorce decree states otherwise. Sometimes, in long marriages, a divorcing couple will agree that one spouse will pay the other alimony for life regardless of whether the supported spouse remarries, but in most cases, alimony ends upon the supported spouse’s remarriage. When the supported spouse remarries, alimony ends automatically; the paying spouse does not need to file a motion or return to court for an order terminating alimony. The paying spouse can stop making alimony payments on the date the supported spouse gets remarried. If the paying spouse owed past due alimony at the time the supported spouse remarries, the paying spouse must still make those payments. Also, if the paying spouse was ordered to make a lump-sum payment or a transfer or property as alimony, he or she must still make that payment or property transfer, even if the other spouse is remarried.

Termination or Modification of Alimony In Utah

Utah law allows courts to modify or end alimony at any time if there has been a substantial change in the circumstances of either spouse after the divorce. Utah courts usually won’t consider the remarriage of the paying spouse to be a “substantial change in circumstances” for the purposes of modifying alimony. If the supported spouse has a significant increase in income or a decrease in financial needs, however, the court may reduce or end alimony payments. If you want to modify or end alimony payments in your case, you should file a motion of terminate or modify alimony in your county state court clerk’s office. The court will schedule a hearing where both you and your ex-spouse will have to appear. You should bring any evidence of the changed circumstances that support your request to change or end alimony payments. If you and your ex-spouse agree to modify alimony before the court date, you should put your agreement in writing, sign it, and submit it to the court for approval.

Impact of Cohabitation on Alimony in Utah

In Utah, all court orders for one spouse to pay the other alimony end when the supported spouse begins cohabiting with another person. Cohabitation is when two individuals live together in a romantic relationship while not married.

If you are paying alimony to your ex-spouse, and he or she begins living with another person in a romantic relationship, you’ll need to file a motion to terminate alimony with the court clerk’s office. Gather any evidence of your ex-spouse’s cohabitation to show the court (for example, photos or other proof that both individuals spend most nights at the same residence). If the judge believes you have proven that your ex-spouse is cohabiting with another person, he or she can end alimony retroactive to the date you filed your motion.

Types of Alimony

Courts may order temporary, short- and long-term alimony. Temporary alimony is granted at the discretion of the court during the divorce proceedings and before the final decree. Short-term alimony may be granted to allow the receiving party time to gain necessary skills. Long-term, or permanent, alimony may be granted to a spouse who has significant needs, and is usually reserved for lengthy marriages.

Temporary Alimony

The first type of alimony or spousal support that could be ordered in a case is temporary alimony. Typically this is alimony that is awarded during the pendency of the divorce. It allows the poorer spouse to get sufficient funds to take care of his or her needs. Temporary alimony usually lasts until a final divorce decree is entered. That means it can last for months and even years. It is extremely important, therefore, that you and your attorney make sure that all relevant financial information is presented to the judge to make sure the temporary alimony award is fair and reasonable. The judge needs to be in possession of information concerning every aspect of the parties’ income, debts, and assets from all sources to make a determination.

Transitionary Alimony

Transitionary alimony is a form of temporary alimony but is different in the sense that it is implemented in a final decree of divorce rather than prior to the divorce decree being entered. It is used to provide the spouse in need an opportunity for a specific amount of time to get an education, training, and other skills so that he or she can become self sufficient. It usually terminates with a new and permanent order which either sets a sum certain of spousal support for a specified time period or it terminates alimony altogether.

 The age, physical condition, emotional state, and financial condition of the former spouses;

 The length of time the recipient would need for education or training to become self-sufficient;

 The couple’s standard of living during the marriage;

 The length of the marriage; and

 The ability of the payer spouse to support the recipient and still support himself or herself.

Alimony is often deemed “rehabilitative,” that is, it’s ordered for only so long as is necessary for the recipient spouse to receive training and become self-supporting. If the divorce decree doesn’t specify a spousal support termination date, the payments must continue until the court orders otherwise. Most awards end if the recipient remarries. Termination upon the payer’s death isn’t necessarily automatic; in cases where the recipient spouse is unlikely to obtain gainful employment, due perhaps to age or health considerations, the court may order that further support be provided from the payer’s estate or life insurance proceeds.

Shadwell shook his head. “I’ve got some pins,” he suggested. “And the Thundergun of Witchfinder-Colonel Ye-Shall-Not-Eat-Any-LivingThing-With-The-Blood-Neither-Shall-Ye-Use-Enchantment- Nor-ObserveTimes Dalrymple… I could load it with silver bullets.”

“That’s werewolves, I believe, “ said Aziraphale.

“Garlic?”

“Vampires.”

Shadwell shrugged. “Aye, week I dinna have any fancy bullets anyway. But the Thundergun will fire anything. I’ll go and fetch it.”

- Good Omens

I wish Terry was still with us. I'm trying to decide whether there are werewolves in the Good Omens universe. (Not for any actual reason. It just started itching at the back of my head.) I think the answer is probably no, but now I want to call Terry and see what he thinks.
