the question: Does a Living Trust need to be publicly registered or recorded anywhere?
the answer: No a Trust does not have to be recorded in the public record and most often times is not. Often times a Trust Certification is prepared and recorded to show the authority of the Trust and its Trustee(s) to transact business that concerns real property.

Communicating with your kids – digitally (StatePoint) In today’s digital world, connecting with your children goes beyond faceto-face communication. While nothing beats in-person quality time, on-the-go lifestyles don’t always allow for it. But physical distance when you or your kids are out of the house shouldn’t present too much of a communication barrier between parents and kids, say the experts. “These days, most children are fairly comfortable using communication technologies. Capitalizing on your children’s tech prowess can help you stay connected,” says Dr. Eric Klopfer, Learning Expert for VTech, a maker of age-appropriate and developmental stagebased electronic learning products for children. Whether you’re at the office, a frequent business traveler or simply want to keep in touch with your kids while they’re away from home,
Klopfer says there are a few things to keep in mind when communicating with your children electronically: Age-Appropriate Technology It’s crucial to find technologies that are ageappropriate, safe and easy-to-use. Many messaging services are restricted to those over the age of 13. And messaging services with fewer restrictions can present a hassle for parents who want to ensure that kids are only corresponding with approved contacts. Luckily, emerging technologies designed for a younger audience are addressing these concerns. Writing Skills For parents skeptical about the impact that texting and electronic messaging will have on children’s written communication skills, Klopfer assures that with care, you can use
the technology to actually improve literacy. “Through time, great minds have worried about the impact that emerging technologies would have on human intelligence,” says Klopfer. “While these advances -- from the printing press to the Internet -- have certainly changed the way we communicate, when used appropriately, their impact is immensely positive.” Encourage kids to develop their writing skills while communicating with you electronically by paying attention to their spelling and grammar. And you can set a good example by avoiding excessive acronyms and emoticons, and including great vocabulary words into messages. It may seem paradoxical, but in this fastpaced, tech-driven age, keeping kids and parents connected is getting easier.

Probiotics: good for more than your stomach (StatePoint) If you’re familiar with probiotics, you probably know that these “good bacteria,” found in such foods as yogurt and pickles, are associated with good digestive health. But the health benefits of probiotics are more extensive than just improving digestion. Experts now say that paying attention to your probiotic intake, including the use of probiotic supplements, can potentially help you achieve better health -- from developing a stronger immune system to reducing stress. “Probiotics have formed a vital part of Mediterranean and Middle Eastern diets for thousands of years and are credited, in part, for the remarkably low rates of chronic, age-related diseases that prevail in those regions,” says Michael A. Smith, M.D., senior health scientist with Life Extension in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., and host of Healthy Talk on www.RadioMD.com. Gut Health The human gastrointestinal system has the allimportant job of digesting food and absorbing nutrients. If it fails at this, you’ll quickly become malnourished. These tasks are managed mostly by bacteria and not by your own body. Foods and supplements that replenish important bacte-
ria are called probiotics. Additionally, probiotics are said to ease inflammation by decreasing production of inflammatory proteins called cytokines. Immunity Your gut system is exposed to lots of dangerous bacteria, molds and fungi. A vast majority of your immune defenses are right there in the gut. Probiotics can help keep these critical defenses functioning properly. Stress Management Have you ever experienced “butterflies” in your stomach? This sensation isn’t just “in your head.” The gut contains over 100 million neurons. One particular nerve, the vagus nerve, communicates directly with your brain. When you’re stressed, your digestive system suffers as a result. But new research shows that probiotics can potentially alleviate these symptoms. Though more research is needed in this area, scientists are uncovering new ways that your mind is connected to your gut. Reaping the Benefits Start by incorporating more probiotics into your
diet. Sources include yogurt, sour pickles, certain soft cheeses and miso soup. While these foods do supply a small dose of beneficial bacteria, Smith says that if you’re not already doing so, you should consider supplementing your diet with probiotic supplements or foods with added probiotics. “Thanks to new research and the emerging field of pharmabiotics, you can increase your intake with a broad spectrum of probiotic products, as well” says Smith. Remember, not all probiotics are created equal -there are many strains and preparations on the market. One of the complications many commercial probiotics face is their inability to overcome hurdles in the digestive tract before hitting their target area, which can limit their beneficial effect. Additionally, some supplements only provide one type of bacteria. It’s important to get clinically effective strains in whatever product you choose. To learn more, visit www.Lef.org/FlorAssist or call toll-free, 1-855-870-0682. An improper balance of good-to-bad bacteria can wreak havoc throughout the body. But by being proactive about probiotics, you can better achieve optimal health.

Is your heating system winter ready? or cleaning products near a heater, and don’t store anything next to it that could impede ventilation.
(StatePoint) In cool weather, wise homeowners will take steps to ensure their homes are well-prepared. There are a number of ways you can keep your home comfortable and your energy bills in check all season.
• Keep vents and returns free of obstructions. Don’t lay carpet over vents, place furniture over or in front of them, or obstruct the flow of air.
Is your heating equipment working optimally or are you wasting energy and paying more than you should? It is estimated that nearly half of all heating and cooling equipment in U.S. homes never performs to its advertised capacity and efficiency due to incorrect installation, according to U.S. government statistics. And if you have an older system that was built before current efficiency standards, you could be spending more than needed on heating your home. If you need to replace your system, be sure to have it properly installed by an HVACR professional, certified by North American Technician Excellence (NATE), the nation’s largest independent, nonprofit certification body for HVACR technicians. NATE-certified technicians are skilled professionals who have proven their knowledge in the HVACR industry by passing specialized certification tests.
• Dry air feels cooler than moist air, so install a humidifier. A simple humidifier may make the home feel five degrees warmer than a home with dry air.
ple of weeks and change them at least twice in the season, or as directed by the manufacturer. • Check and maintain insulation. Improperly insulated walls, floors, attics, basements and crawlspaces drain away heat and can also lead to moisture imbalance. Adding weather stripping and caulk around windows and doors can also improve a home’s insulation.
Beyond having an efficient heating system properly installed, there are several other steps you can take to make your home cool-weather friendly:
• Turn down the thermostat or install a programmable thermostat to regulate temperature.
• Clean heating filters. Check them every cou-
• Clean the furnace area. Don’t keep chemicals
• Look into geothermal heating systems. By using the earth`s natural heat, these systems are among the most efficient and energyconserving heating and cooling technologies currently available. • Have your system serviced regularly for optimal performance. To avoid poor service and scams, be sure to hire an HVACR professional certified by NATE. To find a qualified local contractor who employs certified technicians, look for the NATE logo or go to HVACRAdvice.com. By making sure your heating system is operating efficiently and by adopting a few energyfriendly habits, you can maintain a warm, comfortable home while keeping heating costs down.
