(Not a lore post) RR!AU Lucifer and Vox

Nobody asked, but it's been marinating in my thoughts for awhile.

In the context of my RR!AU, I think there's a lot of potential for AppleTV/StaticApple/whatever the relationship name for Lucifer/Vox is.

This can be taken platonically or romantically, but here are a few reasons why I think their AU relationship in general is pretty neat.

For one-- It's not reliant on Alastor. Alastor is not the "glue" that connects or introduces them! It's just so fascinating to explore how they'd meet naturally by those circumstances alone.

The next reasons get more intense.

CW: depression

The two dominant traits I've characterized for RR!Vox is that a.) he's super FAKE and b.) he's has existential depression(one day I will find a way to articulate how I feel about post-Hell, I know-- ironic, nihilist Vox).

Lucifer sees a sliver of himself in that aspect of Vox. The landscape of Hell? It's just so...eugh. Really easy to lose hope in Sinners because of that. The difference is that Vox sought out to "help" Charlie, and is actively trying to create a challenge for himself. On paper, this seems like a really good idea - but Lucifer still can't trust sinners, so he's like. I want to make my daughter happy AND I need insurance, so soul pact it is!

From my "Contract" comic: Lucifer was able to see instantly through Vox's façade. He lets Vox do it anyway though, because it's entertaining, in a nice way. It might be fake, but I feel Lucifer acknowledges and respects the effort it takes to be cordial and please people(at least to the wide extent that Vox can).

This screenshot is from a infodump convo with my bestie, edited because I first wrote it as "redemption" when I really just mean to 'better himself'.

That said, none of them needed to accept the soul deal from eachother...so it's very much a mutual balancing act.

Anyway, my AU is /gen but hey, I'll indulge in anything that seems interesting ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A card is set before your muse. On the front is scrawled a signature in emerald ink beneath a crocodile skull. Once flipped over, your muse is greeted with the terms and conditions of their Sugaring Contract.

❝Benefits Include: Weekly allowance ( of up to 100,000 Berries ), Monthly allowance ( one lump sum of 500,000 Berries on the first of each month ), Lavish parties, Free entry, drinks, and stay at any resort owned by Crocodile, Insider information regarding movements of the Marines, Health insurance, Occasional shopping trips with Crocodile himself

You must provide: The occasional company for Marine Balls or other outside gatherings per Crocodile's request. On occasion, physical contact will be required, but will never overstep any boundaries set.

*Sexual favors are not owed, nor will they be by either party. Should an encounter occur, it must be within the consent of both parties. Romantic feelings should not be considered. Should they develop, this contract will become null.❞

Do they accept the temptation? To be upon the arm ( or lap ) for a Warlord is esteem very little have the chance to claim, after all. Though, the target upon his back will also be upon their own. Does the risk outweigh the reward? Or is it simply too daunting of an idea? Do tell...

What's actually in the Ukraine bill-a breakdown

Military Assistance

Military Personnel(no, this does not mean troops are being deployed) to respond to the situation in Ukraine and for related expenses: $238,190,000, subdivided into

Army: $207,158,000

Marine Corps:$3,538,000

Air Force: $23, 302,000

Space Force: $4,192,000

This is literally what it sounds like: paying for people to do things, as opposed to the next item...

Operations and Maintenance: $34,243,729,000, subdivided into

Army:$4,877,581,000

Navy:$976,405,000

Marine Corps$69(nice),045,000

Air Force: $371,475,000

Space Force:$8,443,000

Defense-wide(bolded for being important): $27,930,780,000. Of this, $13,772,460,000 is directly for aid to Ukraine, and $13, 414,432,000 is for replacement and reimbursement for both physical aid and service aid(ie training) given to Ukraine. In other words, only the first half is actually going to Ukraine(mostly in the form of physical things like vehicles, guns, ammo and equipment and not just money) while the second half never leaves America.

Procurement:$13,276,910,000, subdivided into

Missile Procurement, Army:$2,742,757,000

Science for the production of medical, stable, and radioactive isotopes(no idea why this is here): $98,000,000

Atomic Energy Defense Activities

Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation for etc etc:$143,915,000

Federal Salaries and Expenses for etc etc: $5,540,000

Health and Human Services

Refugee and Entrant Assistance: $481,000,000. This provision specifically allows the relevant agencies to use this money for grants or contracts with nonprofits, which imo means it's likely that most of this will go towards aiding Ukrainian refugees in Europe, and thus that this isn't just money for moving Ukrainians to America.

Department of State

Diplomatic Programs to respond to the situation in Ukraine and countries affected by said situation: $60,000,000

United States Agency for International Development

USAID operating expenses appropriated to the President for response to etc etc: $39,000,000

USAID Office of Inspector General: $10,000,000

Bilateral Economic Assistance

Transition Initiatives(meaning transition to democracy): $25,000,000

Economic Support Fund(for Ukraine's government): $7,899,000,000. A provision states that none of this money may be used for pensions(as an anti-corruption measure) and that at least $50,000,000 of this amount must be used to respond to food insecurity caused by the war.

Assistance for Europe, Eurasia, and Central Asia(for Ukraine's private sector):$1,575,000,000

International Security Assistance

International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement(for Ukraine and other countries affected by the invasion):$300,000,000

Nonproliferation, Antiterrorism, Demining and Related Programs(for Ukraine and other countries affected by the invasion): $100,000,000

Foreign Military Financing Program(for Ukraine and other countries affected by the invasion): $1,600,000,000

Some of the more impactful general provisions of the act:

The transfer of long-range ATACMS to Ukraine was required by the act, and that appears to have already happened. The President was given the option to not do so if he determined it would be detrimental to America's national security interests, but it appears he didn't.

The Secretary of State was directed to insure as much in-person monitoring as possible for funds appropriated for Economic Support, Assistance for Europe, Eurasia and Central Asia, International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement, and Nonproliferation, Anti-terrorism, Demining and Related Programs

The amount of money spent out of the total amounts budgeted for Economic Support and Assistance for etc etc may not exceed half the total amount of funds given by all donors to Ukraine. This basically means that, in terms of economic assistance, Europe has to do at least as much spending as we do.

The two headings for economic assistance mentioned above(totaling to $9,474,000,000) are loans that the President may only forgive in the following circumstances: up to 50% of the debts incurred by these loans may be cancelled by the President at any time after November 15th, 2024, while the remaining 50% may be cancelled at any time after January 1st, 2026. Both cancellations would be subject to Congressional approval.

Stages of Ethic

Preschool: Disturbed by the classroom placement schema, in parent company and success thereof, through athletic cheats in track and field.

Elementary School: Believed deeply in sciences and biome tests, to be performed without parent advice, assistance, or informing, instead as private assignments to be attempted for own self-sufficience; at cooking, automotive care, and insurance numbers.

Middle School: Introduction to the internet, and first person shooters; the game, as the learning device, to boost intelligence quotient, in mutual challenge at friendly sport; however of the mind, the proper physical fitness, not the body, the beaten nature of the lower development of the neurology.

Highschool: Hatred of holy wars; those spectral pledges, for a famine induced by wealthy wife of the patrician and centurion system, for a bridal broach; instead the poor, suffer as infantry, victim, and witness, the shutdown of farms for the halls of religion and country; not the common good, of the Catholic Catechism as promised; not refused and manipulated, by those princes held otherwise for hatred of rich girl netted as slave; and their lover, the handsome spy, a cunning and ruthless man.

UMass-Amherst: The concern of the racketeered good; the boycott to control contract, labor, location, good, and contraband. The sharing of law in marital secrets, however marijuana shared in front of child; hence raids under racketeering statutes, by both propaganda's production, and actual law given politician of selectman and district attorney - under direction of mayor.

Bridgewater Triangle: The concern in creation of parent, to remove cycle of poverty downwards into military tradition removed, and instead the upward mobility and into this and inside, the practice outside the career. The refutation of the Lutheran, as peaceful and pacifist, against the common ilk and whetstone of the war, whatever your place may be; your right to make a career, as unique, not a simple action figure, the tool of the pederast.

SNHU: The application of all past sciences observed in highschool and college, to the writ of the advisor, as the superhero; to be interdicted and maligned, as the prime piece of protagonist in fiction. The hero, as the orphan, to be castrated and done aside, included in fiction as their power and base removed; hence the Judaism, out of Babylon, stands for rights of the African and the coloured; not the privileged and wealthy, advised by those in inner circle, instead to be done aside and crushed.

[elbiotipo]

In your average space opera setting there's always a free-trader/smuggler/guy with a space ship stock character, but nobody ever asks where he got the spaceship or who he works for. Not in mine though. In my setting, there's economics and paperwork. There is a Guy With A Spaceship, but he also owns a business, you don't just go randomly going from planet to planet, you need to buy insurance first and such. Few people just own spaceships like cars or such, they are more like planes or... ships, and you need to make bank with them (unless you are some rich asshole and can buy them on a whim)

Anyways. Economics. There's no faster-than-light radio or communication. Communication is done by ultra-fast mail ships that carry data. Even so, they take weeks for getting from one side of the Galaxy to the other. Now that I think about it, life on a planet might seem fast compared to life in the spaceways... In any case, the only connection worlds have to the rest of the galaxy is visiting spaceships.

Most civilian spaceships are from these:

Big shipping corporations: These are the ones who have monopolized most of the big routes and the great lucrative contracts (like say, food for sprawling city worlds or transport of rare materials) Many are centuries old, others more recent (many times from state interventions that breaks them down in smaller companies) They are big, bad, and you are beneath their notice.

State shipping: Interstellar states, of course, own their own merchant marines (a bit like national airlines actually) for domestic purposes. There are socialist states where interestellar transport is completely controlled by worker's cooperatives: corporations are constantly trying to undermine them. Of course there's also state science, industrial, etc. interests, though some are contracted to corporations.

Relativist Clans: Before aetheric FTL travel was widespread, all interstellar travel was done by nomadic generation ships. In modern days, they have mostly settled in orbits (though some are still roaming around) and have spawned many smaller shipping companies and families that remain connected. They are in an interesting middle ground between company, nation, and institution. The so called "free-traders", ships that do work outside the main routes (like Our Heroes) mostly come from this background)

Belters: Space miners is the thing that most people think when they hear Belters, but in established systems, asteroids can be gardened palaces managing huge space factories. They usually don't care about interestellar affairs unless there's the promise of a mining rush in another star; in a way, that keeps the Belter exploring spirit alive. Many descend from relativist clans.

Mercenaries, bounty hunters, pirates, corsairs, guerrillas...: The idea of the single "elite" space-fighter facing against their enemies is an invention to sell holos. To maintain a single spaceship is a costly task; groups that kill for money (a profitable business, unfortunately, whatever the name) are often large by sheer logistics. Of course, what are dismissed as pirates or gangs might actually be well-organized revolutionary groups.

Starters: Named because they only remain around a single star, they are the ones who pilot the planet-to-orbit shuttles, maintain the spaceports, do in system mining and research, etc. They are space people too, though they don't travel across the galaxy like others, so a few assholes don't really consider them "astronauts".

Rich people who buy like, yatchs: there's plenty of these around.

There's actually a lot of other stuff you can find in space, I haven't even gotten into the space whales yet (of course there are space whales) but these are the main economic players so to speak.

“I’ll let you review the contract for a few minutes. Once I’m back, we can go over any questions you have and then if you’re ready, you can sign and we can proceed.”

Wes nodded, and replied, “Yes, sir.”

Damon Hargrove gave a nod back, then promptly left the office — leaving Wes alone.

Each of his arms came to rest on the table. Wes looked about the office for a moment. He was surrounded by such fine furnishings, with a perfect view of Manhattan. And the tour of the facility — undeniably impressive. The Eye was clearly well-funded. The salary he was offered alone had Wes’ head spinning.

Wes began sifting through what seemed to be an endless amount of pages. Terms, conditions, liability, insurance — Jesus fucking Christ, Wes thought.

Picking up the pen, he began mindlessly initialing the spots on each page meant for him, muttering “sure — sure — whatever — sure,” under his breath as he went.

Wes felt a surge of relief when he noticed he only had a few pages remaining. But, suddenly he froze. At that very moment, Damon walked back in.

“Questions?” Damon asked as he took a seat across the table from Wes.

Wes’ brows furrowed and he looked to the man across from him. “I can decide what kind of contracts I take?”

Damon’s head cocked slightly to the side, as if he were entertained by the question. “You think we’d force you to do things you don’t want to do?”

Wes paused for a moment, then shrugged. “I was a Marine for a decade so…. I’d say it wouldn’t surprise me, yeah. I’d say that’s what I’m used to.”

Damon replied, “That’s fair, I suppose. But, that is not the scenario here.”

Damon paused for a moment, seeing Wes was still apprehensive, then continued. “If you don’t want to take a single contract that doesn’t involve you in a bird’s nest, we’re more than fine with that.”

Wes’ gaze shifted down to the papers before him, then quickly snapped back up to meet Damon. “I’ll be your sniper — but, that’s all. Nothing… Up close. Nothing personal.” Wes straightened up his shoulders a bit. “For now, at least.” He added, then picked up the pen and finished signing.

Damon nodded, and accepted the finished papers that Wes held out to him.

“Welcome to The Eye, Wes.”

"Looking forward to the season of life."

Blanimir Grazdanov (30, Bulgaria), a new foreign striker of the Samsung Fire Department, was confident. He was confident of his success and did not hide his aspiration for a new challenge.

Samsung Fire and Marine Insurance, led by head coach Kim Sang-woo, started off-season training in Shizuoka, Japan on Sunday. For a week through Saturday, the team will hold four practice matches with Japanese powerhouse Toray Arrows to focus on actual training sessions. The key is maximizing the effects of Grazdanov.

Although he joined the team in a hurry and is not in perfect condition due to finger and back pain, Grazdanov is adapting quickly. "Every day is getting better. I need to adapt more to some areas, but I am getting better," Grazdanov said at the team's lodging on Wednesday.

Grazdanov was not the preferred option Samsung Fire and Marine Insurance had in mind. After giving up his contract with Yosvani at a tryout for foreign players held in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates in May, Samsung Fire and Marine Insurance expected to have an advantage as sixth place in the regular season league last season.

KB Insurance, ranked seventh, renewed its contract with Villena, and OK Financial Group gave up Leo, allowing them to choose from various options. However, the team fell to sixth place in the draw. After much consideration, they chose Mattei Kok, who displayed explosive power in Woori Card. They believed that selecting experienced players in the V-League would reduce their risk.

However, Mattei was not accompanied by the player. After arriving in Korea in early August, the player was not in a good physical condition than expected. There were concerns that his right knee injury could be prolonged. The club doubted that although it had three months to spare before joining the team, rehabilitation was not carried out properly.

The conclusion was replacement of players, and outside heater Grazdanov joined the team. So far, I am satisfied. He is showing passion by hanging out with teammates regardless of food. "Life in Korea is so good. I just regret that I cannot breathe with my teammates properly due to injury," he said.

Grazdanov was confident that he would play in the V-League. Watching the coaching staff of various clubs agonizing over his choice during the tryout, he reportedly foresaw his joining in some form. "On the contrary, I joined early. I thought I would be called anywhere."

Grazdanov was deeply impressed by the Samsung Fire Department. "They are a young team. They have energy and strong fighting spirit." I believe that many experiences will help them as well. Starting his professional career with CSKA Sophia in 2012, Grazdanov joined Besiktas (Turkiye), Glodo Vanka (Italy), Solhan Spor Kulubu (Turkiye), and Hekimoglu (Turkiye), and ranked fourth in the Bulgarian league last season.토토사이트

The goal is clear. "I want to display the best performance and best performance in every game. I look forward to the season of my life by lifting the trophy," Grazdanov said. "This is my first Asian challenge. I was very curious about Asian countries. I will put everything into it."

The Impact of Digital Transformation in the Insurance Industry.

In this blog, we will look into the meaning and implications of digital transformation in insurance. Before diving into it, let us break down the concept for a thorough understanding.

What do you understand by Digital Transformation?

Digital refers to the application of processes, methods of electronics, and the utilization of electronic devices. Whereas, transformation refers to change or gradual evolution in the workings of an organization. Bringing the two terms together, we have digital transformation. Let us see the full potential of it that can be extracted and maximized with the help of cutting-edge technology for boosting the insurance industry.

What about the Insurance Industry?

Insurance refers to a financial product whose purchase allows insurers to pay for damages incurred by customers due to unforeseen circumstances, loss, or destruction due to reasons covered by the insurer. Customers are required to sign a contract and make regular payments, also called premiums, to the insurer.

Crossing of Digital Transformation and the Insurance Industry:

The humble beginning of the evolution in the insurance industry was with the advent of scanners and algorithms to pricing insurance premiums, bringing in precision and accuracy. The insurance companies employed the Internet to sell insurance products to the clients. This paved the way for a novel source of revenue and profited the insurance company with increased customer loyalty and well-established retention. Digital transformation has seen the adoption of digital technology such as data analytics. This enabled the companies to better analyze the client’s needs, adapt to their preferences, and make use of the information to open new services and ways of generating revenue. Digitalization has allowed for the enhancement and satisfaction of customer engagement and focused data-driven decision-making. This also allows for the production of inventive products that cater to evolving market trends and consumer needs.

The different types of Insurance

1. Life Insurance and General Insurance

Life insurance has payment options based on an annual monthly quarterly or daily basis. It includes a whole-life policy where the nominated person is paid the insurance amount only after the death of the insured. This type of insurance can sometimes restrict payment to twenty or thirty years or can mandate payment for the entire lifetime. Another type is the endowment life insurance policy, wherein the insurer pays the insured the amount equivalent to the number of years required. Joint life policy helps a couple to ensure safety in cases of loss. In this type of insurance, the couple can make individual installments or joint payments to form a lump sum amount. This amount can be used by either of the two in case of death of any of the two. In an annuity policy, the insured is paid the amount on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis.  Lastly, another kind of life insurance is a children’s endowment policy, where the children of the age, specified in the policy agreed upon by the insurer and the insured, are paid a fixed amount.

General insurance includes different types of insurance, such as fire, marine, health, burglary, etc. Fire insurance covers expenses of loss due to fire. Marine insurance covers expenses related to damage caused by sea to the hull, cargo, or freight.

2. Digital Insurance

Digital insurance refers to technologies that make the insurance processes seamless and faster. The insurance policies’ sales and management are taken care of with the help of technology. What makes this different from traditional insurance policies is based on certain features.

1. Customer priority: Digital insurance ensures that customers are given personalized assistance.

2. Multiple channels: This provides information on services on multiple channels, showing a strong presence and increasing its accessibility to potential customers.

3. Insur-Tech ecosystem: This refers to the united working of APIs, microservices, and web services. It helps in optimizing the customer experience. This is done so by making use of chatbots, smart home solutions, vehicle safety solutions, etc. It is also considered one of the insurance technologies. Chatbots act as virtual assistants, saving time and costs in providing support to customers and making them an efficient insurance technology.

3. AI is transforming insurance

Artificial Intelligence in insurance is helping digital transformation in insurance by its ability to predict behavior patterns, analyze data, handle claims, and contact center operations. It helps in risk estimation and risk-proofing. AI algorithms can help in fraud detection. Based on the emerging trends, AI in insurance helps in the development of innovative solutions while also creating a need for them. AI’s ability to assess the customer’s requirements helps in focused decision-making. AI in insurance helps insurers by speeding up claims processing and transforming underwriting. It allows for faster access to data and more accurate reporting, often without human intervention, resulting in quicker and more precise decision-making. This is an effective insurance technology that streamlines operations faster.

Making the best of AI with machine learning

Machine learning is another insurance technology. For effective use of AI, it is important to use ML and integrate it in a process called MLOps. It helps in insurance processes by improving claim processing through digitizing files and storing them on the cloud. The processing speed and accuracy can be used for policy administration and risk assessment.

Benefits of using Digital Life Insurance

Digital life insurance refers to services and products related to life insurance. They are fully provided, processed, and managed online. This boosts digital transformation as it gives more accessibility to customers. They can check quotes and policies and can make use of online purchases. Digital life insurance allows for digital documentation and automated underwriting, saving organizations time. The online platform allows customers to do their research and find suitable insurance premiums online.

Digitizing Insurance Marketing for Faster Digital Transformation

Insurance marketing refers to the marketing strategies to draw in clients for insurance plans. It helps in generating good leads for insurance when used effectively. Insurance marketing starts by using targeted keywords, content, a strong social media presence, and sharing insights on customer’s pain points through social media platforms.

Life insurance companies in India to watch out for

Some of the best life insurance companies are stated here based on the claim settlement ratio from 2022 to 2023. LIC of India has a CSR of 98.74%, Max Life Insurance has a CSR of 99.34%, HDFC Life Insurance’s CSR is 98.66%, ICICI Prudential Life Insurance’s CSR is 97.82% and Kotak Mahindra Life Insurance’s CSR is at 98.82%.

Conclusion

Digital transformation is helping the insurance sector and streamlining operations to a great extent. The incorporation of digital life insurance, insurance technology, and digital life insurance will help quicken the journey of digital transformation. Life insurance companies in India can benefit from digitally transforming their insurance processes and boosting overall productivity. Customer retention and generation will improve with digital transformation in the insurance sector.

The Role of Marine Insurance Brokers:

In the vast and intricate world of maritime commerce, where goods traverse oceans, navigating the complexities of marine insurance is imperative. Whether you're an importer or exporter, understanding the importance of marine insurance is crucial to safeguarding your business against unforeseen risks. Marine insurance policies serve as the backbone of protection, offering financial security in the event of loss or damage to cargo during transit.

A marine insurance policy is a contract between the insured and the insurer, wherein the insurer agrees to indemnify the insured for specified perils encountered during the voyage. These perils can range from natural disasters like storms and hurricanes to man-made incidents such as piracy or vessel collisions. The significance of having the best marine insurance policy cannot be overstated, as it provides peace of mind and financial stability to businesses engaged in maritime trade.

However, navigating the vast array of marine insurance policies available in the market can be daunting. This is where marine insurance brokers step in to play a pivotal role.

In addition to facilitating the procurement of marine insurance policies, brokers also provide ongoing support throughout the policy lifecycle. From assisting with claims management to providing risk management advice, brokers serve as trusted advisors, helping businesses navigate the complexities of the insurance landscape.

In the context of India's vibrant maritime trade, where businesses face unique challenges and opportunities, the role of marine insurance brokers becomes even more crucial.

1. Realize that there are different jurisdictions of law -- (1) land and soil; (2) coast (maritime) and high seas; (3) air -- commerce and ecumenical law.

2. Realize that living people live on the soil that stands upon the land, breathe the air, and have both fresh and sea water in their veins, so that a living man rules and inhabits all these jurisdictions and has "general jurisdiction" in all three primary jurisdictions of law.

3. Realize that by a purposeful and self-interested process of misrepresentation and registration, your natural political status as a free man or woman has been hijacked, your identity has been stolen, and your "presumed" status has been denigrated to that of an indentured servant or a slave, such that you no longer have access to the guarantees and protections of any Constitution, and no longer have access to the law of the land and soil.

4. As a further direct result, your Good Name has been copyrighted by the British Crown Corp, your property assets have been dumped into a public trust, and you don't actually own anything. You are considered either an indentured servant and Ward of the Crown, or, alternatively, a Roman slave. (The recent attempt to create a class of "Transhumans" below the level of a slave has largely failed.)

5. So, your identity has been stolen, your political status debased, your property has been unlawfully converted and seized upon and used for collateral backing Crown interests and all sorts of payola rightfully belonging to you has been distributed to political cronies of the persons responsible for this state of affairs; your actual assets have been mortgaged to high heaven and your very life and soul have been traded on black markets as part of various insurance schemes.

6. The False Claim of a "public" ownership interest in you and your assets, was made by a private, for-profit government Subcontractor, the British Crown Corporation, and has been alleged based on your purported waiver of your natural estate via "voluntary" (but undisclosed) registration of your birth (berth) and your equally purported preferred adoption of indentured servitude as a member of the British Territorial Merchant Marine Service -- a Person named after you and using the same exact name, spelled and styled the same way, but operating under the Law of the Sea. This Merchant Mariner, however, ran into a spot of bad luck and has been "missing, presumed dead" for quite a number of years, which has resulted in the creation of a Municipal ESTATE trust named after you.

7. In fact, you were a baby too young to contract with anyone about anything when all of this transpired and your Mother was given no disclosure about it, with the result that the "registration contract" is unconscionable and void upon discovery and objection. This also dissolves any "derivative" contract obligating your ESTATE to Municipal service and law. However, before you can object to this repugnant and merely "presumed" citizenship contract, you have to become aware of it and exercise your options.

8. As with most actions at Law, proper response requires both a positive action and a negative action, so as to repel all comers with equal strength and force. (1) With one hand you extend and assert your "reversionary trust interest" in your "birthright estate" --- that is, the natural estate of a living man in his native country. (2) You declare your proper political status, claim your assets, record this, and publish it. (3) You serve Notice to the Admiralty, Foreign Office, Secretary of State (if you have one), and whatever other offices are naturally engaged in the proper identification of people, their nationality, political status, and functions. All this foregoing is positive action on your part to re-establish your existence and claim to your own property.

Next comes the "negative" part in which you report these improper processes and presumptions as crimes to the Public Safety Officers; (4) this is done via "Testimony in the Form of an Affidavit" signed, sealed with your thumbprint, and Witnessed either by a Public Notary or two independent living Witnesses who also sign the Testimony and provide their names and addresses. Then you write letters to the Governor or similar Officer in charge of the "District" and/or Municipal Government where you live, copying this to the Chief Justice or other highest ranking member of the Court serving your area, and present (5) a Medical Doctor's affirmation that you are alive and well; (6) copy of your published Declaration; (7) "First Notice Letter to Remove and Return" your Good Name and copyright, and all other material assets belonging to you from the Public Trust(s) in which they have been deposited. Mark this: "Notice to Agents is Notice to Principals; Notice to Principals is Notice to Agents". Send this by overnight Express Mail.

(9) You won't hear anything back from them, because this would require an admission of guilt; after thirty days plus three days mailing time, you can issue a (8) "Second Notice Letter to Remove and Return". In this letter, you inform them that they have exercised a role as a Public Usufruct in creating a foreign estate named after you and also creating a Municipal trust corporation named after you, and they are obligated to hold you harmless for any damages, bills, or other possible injury to you, coming about as a result of the existence of these foreign corporate entities named after you. Send a copy of the first Letter to Remove and Return along with this. Send with "Notice to Agents is Notice to Principals" and wait as before.

(10) After another 33 days, it's time to finish this business off with a (9) "Third Notice Letter to Remove and Return". In this letter you tell them that you have not heard back from them and you are exercising your right to create your own remedy, which will be to create and monetize commercial, non-commercial, and agricultural liens against your assets in their possession, plus damages. If they do not voluntarily reply and relinquish your purloined assets back to you, in ten days plus three days mailing time, their acquiescence and agreement will be established on the Public Record. Remind them that if they do not take action they will continue to owe you Due Diligence to hold you harmless from any claims resulting from their creation of public trusts or any other corporation named after you. Send copies of the first two letters, Notice to Agents.... send via Express Mail and time them out.

(11) No matter what they do from this time forward, they have no valid basis for complaint. They continue to bear the Usufructuary responsibility to hold you harmless and you are free to exercise your general jurisdiction.

(12) If you did not already have a Fiduciary in the field taking your part, you would have to do a lot of additional work creating public and private trusts in all three jurisdictions and creating commercial, non-UCC, and agricultural liens against them and their Principals, but our Fiduciary already did that for those with hands and feet, in whom the blood flows and the flesh lives, so all living men and women are safe to return to the land and soil of their native country and reclaim their public and private assets.

(13) The Perpetrators had closed down the Land Recording Offices in most of the world so that people seeking to rebut their False Claims would have nowhere to go to record and publish their declarations and counterclaims to recoup their reversionary trust interest in their birthright estate. In response, we stripped down the declaration essentials to a single page with two Witnesses and opened up the International Land Recording and Publishing System (ILRPS), so that anyone from anywhere can re-establish their identity and political status and publish it worldwide.

(14) Having regained the natural general jurisdiction you are heir to, and being enabled to operate this superior concurrent general jurisdiction in tandem with any other government operating in any single jurisdiction, you are now set and ready to join with other men and women who have similarly objected to these False Claims of citizenship (means that you owe service to the government as a volunteer or employee thereof) and/or corporate enfranchisement.

(15) With everyone papered up, it's time to stand up your County or State or other traditional political subdivision equivalent, and "peaceably assemble". Always remember that this is about restoring your lawful government, not fighting against any other government. Having reclaimed your own birthright political status, you are owed the protections of the Constitutions again. In Britain, the living people are owed a Constitutional Monarchy administered by a Protestant King or Queen. In America, the living people are owed a republican form of government throughout the States. Each country has a slightly different story and organizational framework to build upon, but all State and County level governments share similar functions:

The County is the seat of the local soil jurisdiction government and is the most powerful and closest government to the people. It's jurisdiction is National in nature and its Court is supreme when it comes to the affairs, interests. and laws of the living people.

The State is the seat of the international land jurisdiction government and also holds the international empowerments of the State at sea in America, apart from those powers delegated to the British King as Trustee on the High Seas and Navigable Inland Waterways. (And no, contrary to the fecund imaginations of Bar Attorneys, our Mother's "birth canals" are not considered "navigable inland waterways" within the meaning and intent of these treaty provisions.)

In each country the organizational structure and names are different, but the fundamentals are the same --- there is a traditional soil jurisdiction government representing the interests and enforcing the laws of the nation, and a traditional land jurisdiction government representing the interests of the people in international jurisdiction.

These two levels of government, land and soil, are fundamental and the "ground" upon which all other rights and layers of government depend; without ground to stand upon, one lacks "standing" in Law, and as a result, a victim of human trafficking shanghaied to live at sea and under the jurisdiction of the sea, is unable to represent their own interests.

This is, in part, why it is so fundamentally important to "return home" and occupy the otherwise vacated jurisdiction of the land and soil. This is the realm from which your political status and nationality derive, and upon which your rights and guarantees depend.

At each level, the governments established on the land and soil provide essential services to the living people (soil) and Lawful Persons (land) that are part of their population. Please note that we are not "residents" in our own country. That term is reserved for "aliens" who are not permanently part of our nation or population.

Those services include: (1) a General Assembly competent to hold elections and debate issues and take issues on behalf of the population within that County or State or Principality; (2) an International Business Assembly competent to make decisions for the State in the best interests of the people who live in that County or State; this is traditionally done via Fiduciary Deputies who must act as Prudent Men in the conduct of public business; (3) a Militia at both State and County level, for the protection and assistance of the people in time of war, famine, or natural disaster; (4) a Court system appropriate for the needs of the people -- a County Court run under traditional Common Law, and a State Court operated under International Law -- with one court to address land jurisdiction issues for Lawful Persons, and another court to address maritime and admiralty issues for Legal Persons.

A similar bifurcation exists with respect to the global commercial venues, with some corporations being under the Merchant Law on land, and others operating under Maritime Commerce at sea.

As a result of the insurmountable debts accrued by the Maritime Corporations it is highly recommended that those who have corporations in the current system should lawfully convert them to land-based Merchant Corporations instead.

That wraps up a decent overview of what's happened, why it needs to be addressed, and what's to be done about it.

The same applies for lawyers in their own capacity as living men and women, except that as they may function as attorneys and are coerced to subject themselves to the British "American" Bar Association as a result, they suffer intrinsic loss of both rights and property as a consequence of that relationship and as a result of accepting the foreign title of "Esquire".

Members of the military are similarly harmed but on a more temporary basis as their obligations to the current corporate employer are more immediately reversible upon the end of their "Tour of Duty" (aka, indentured servitude) and also because the enlistment contracts they signed were not fully disclosed concerning the mercenary nature of the work they were undertaking.

Remedies for these outrages are long overdue in terms of providing easy and official and published meaning advertised ways -- for Americans and others to refuse and/or correct these impositions of foreign citizenship obligations by deceit and coercion.

A very serious breach of public trust has occurred and the military is responsible for keeping its oath to defend against all enemies foreign and domestic.

Facts About Contractors Insurance in Ann Arbor and South Lyon, MI

Many contractors prefer to work independently by using their skills. Sure, they face several challenges, too, that are not easy to resolve. Being blamed for damage often results in liability claims, causing them to pay for settlements or legal costs. Purchasing suitable contractors insurance in Ann Arbor and South Lyon, MI, that can enable the contractor to remain protected from associated financial risks can go a long way in mitigating such expenses.  While liability coverage is essential for contractors, the insurance policy also protects from other risks. ​ Sure, a small-time contractor is anxious about spending money on insurance policies. Such individuals should connect with a seasoned insurance agency or agent who looks out for the customer instead of focusing on the insurance carrier's profits. The cost will depend on several factors, including the following:

· Requirements · Number of employees · Claims history · Business assets · Business property, if available · Business Location · Payroll size

Again, the total cost will depend on the type of coverage purchased. The most important coverage that a contractor should consider includes:-

General liability insurance- This is by far the most essential coverage that the contractor needs. It is a type of small business insurance that covers accidental injuries and property damage to others. The contractor may also be held liable for causing harm to reputation, advertising injury, and copyright infringement when applicable. The contractor may face financial problems when paying for settlement or dealing with court costs by digging into the business funds or profits. It is thus advisable to purchase general liability coverage immediately after starting the business.

· Workers compensation- A contractor that employs at least one person must provide compensation to the employee in instances of job-related injury or illness. This is best done by working together with an insurance company. A contractor who works alone does not have to consider this coverage.

· Commercial auto insurance is similar to personal auto insurance but is meant for vehicles that are used specifically for running the business. Small-time contractors usually use vans, motorcycles, or small trucks and trailers.  Buying the appropriate coverage can be helpful in the event of accidents or damage to other vehicles or property.

· Contractor’s tools and equipment insurance—Alternatively known as inland marine insurance, this coverage protects contractors and contracting companies by paying for the repair and replacement of the tools and equipment that the professionals carry for completing tasks both on and off-site. Repairs for general wear and tear are not covered, though.

· Errors and omissions insurance—Contractors often take responsibility for completing specialized tasks that lay persons cannot handle. The insurance company compensates them for their errors, which result in financial loss for their customers.

Most small contractors and subcontractors find it cost-effective to buy a BOP that combines general liability, business interruption, and commercial property insurance instead of spending money on separate insurance coverage.

The landscaper's insurance in Ann Arbor and South Lyon, MI, is similar to the contractor’s insurance with a few alterations and additions.

What Insurance Policies Do Musicians Need?

Being a musician involves a lot more than just creating and performing music. It is a career path with its own set of perks and risks. And having the right plan can mean the difference between bouncing back from a setback or facing financial collapse.

Here's a breakdown of the key insurance policies musicians should consider to protect their instruments, their livelihood, and themselves from the aftermath of an uncertain event. Let's get started!

Public Liability Insurance (PLI)

It is a fundamental coverage for any musician, especially those who perform live and are surrounded by people. PLI or public liability cover safeguards you financially if a third party (audience member, venue staff, etc.) gets injured or their property is damaged due to your actions or equipment during a performance, rehearsal, or even while setting up. Most importantly, such scenarios are not rare.

Imagine a rogue cymbal stand topples over and injures a guest at your gig. Public liability musicians' insurance would cover the medical expenses or any legal fees that arise. Many venues require performers to have PLI before they can take the stage. So, make sure you have it before you hit the stage.

Musical Instrument and Equipment Insurance

Your instruments are your voice, and their value can range from a few hundred dollars to priceless heirlooms. Isn't it? Equipment coverage protects your gear from theft, accidental damage, loss, and even damage during travel (in case you check your guitar on a flight and it gets mishandled). This plan can be obtained as a standalone policy or added to your PLI for a comprehensive musician's package.

Business Property Insurance

Do you have a dedicated music studio or practice space? A business property plan protects the physical location and your belongings inside it. It covers damage from fire, theft, vandalism, and natural disasters.

Inland Marine Insurance

This type of policy is specifically designed for items that are frequently moved around. It's particularly relevant for touring musicians who transport their instruments and equipment from gig to gig. Inland marine insurance bridges the gap between coverage provided by your business property policy (which applies at your studio) and your equipment cover (which might not extend to certain situations while traveling).

Personal Accident and Health Insurance

A musician's career can be physically demanding. We know you know it the best. Repetitive strain injuries, hearing loss, and even accidents on stage are potential risks. Personal accident and health coverage provide financial protection in case of an injury that prevents you from performing or working in your musical capacity.

Professional Indemnity Insurance

This protects you from legal claims related to negligence in your professional services. While uncommon, a situation could arise where a client sues you for a perceived error or omission in your work (e.g., a missed deadline for a commissioned composition). A professional indemnity plan would cover the legal costs associated with defending yourself in such a case.

Legal Expenses Insurance

Lawsuits can be expensive, even if you're ultimately found not guilty. Legal expenses protection covers the legal fees you incur if you're sued in a non-performance-related matter. This can be helpful in situations like contract disputes or copyright infringement claims.

Business Interruption Insurance

If an unforeseen event disrupts your ability to perform or teach music lessons for some time, business interruption musicians insurance can help offset lost income. This could be due to a natural disaster, illness, or even venue closure.

Choosing the Right Coverage

The specific protection needs of a musician will vary depending on factors like the type of music they play, whether they perform live, the value of their instruments, and their business structure. It's wise to consult with an insurance agent who understands the music industry to create a personalized coverage plan. Also, you can visit online portals to compare different plans from various insurance providers to find the most suitable option.
