Funding Cut To Key Women’s Legal Support Service

The state government has refused to extend funding for a free service supporting women in the family court system.

The Women’s Family Law Support Service (WFLSS), located at the Sydney Family Court, has made numerous requests for an extension of its state funding. However, the New South Wales government will stop funding the service at the end of this month.

WFLSS would need $120,000 per year to fund operational costs and a salary for one employee. Although run extensively by volunteers, one paid employee is crucial for the service.

The free support service provides women in the family court system with information about the court process and can help them arrange for security.

For women, the period during and immediately after separation is the time when their safety is most at risk.

The Women’s Family Law Support Service has been described as an “essential” service.

“Free legal support services make such a difference to so many people,” explains Sydney-based family lawyer Hayder Shkara.

“Family law proceedings can be complicated and highly stressful, even without fears for your own safety or the safety of your children.”

WFLSS started in 2007 as a joint initiative between the NSW Women’s Refuge Movement and the Sydney Family Court.

It has received ad hoc state government funding for the past three years.

“If the Women’s Family Law Support Service closed its doors, it would be harder for women to access support during an already dangerous time,” Mr Shkara believes.

The Commonwealth government has established a new support service, the Family Advocacy and Support Service (FASS), taking a similar role to that of WFLSS.

The Minister for the Prevention of Domestic Violence, Mark Speakman, described FASS as providing the same support as WFLSS.

However, Will Alstergren, the Chief Justice of the Family Court of Australia, supports the continuation of state funding for WFLSS.

Pepperstone Forex Broker Review Pros & Cons ECN Trading Report Launched

A new Pepperstone Review has been launched by Online Brokers Australia. It highlights the pros and cons of Pepperstone Forex, Australia’s largest online FX broker.

Sydney, Australia – August 21, 2019

Online Brokers Australia has launched a new Pepperstone Forex broker review, with five separate pages reviewing different aspects of the broker. It is packed with quality and detailed information, and is the most detailed Pepperstone Forex review online.

More information can be found at: https://www.onlinebrokersaustralia.com.au/reviews/pepperstone/

Online Brokers Australia is a CFD, Forex and stock broker comparison site that specializes in great and detailed reviews. It provides details on Australian CFD providers, Forex brokers and Australian stock brokers along with ratings, pros and cons, and more.

The site was founded by Stuart Young, who is experienced in the financial market as a private trader. He also runs the Global Trading Tools website and is proud to stand behind the review comparison site.

He created Online Brokers Australia to streamline the selection process and make it easier for people to come to better and more informed decisions. This is important, because anyone can trade and invest on the financial markets from the comfort of their own home.

Pepperstone is an Australian online broker that has a special focus on ECN Forex trading. The review explains that Pepperstone will suit experienced FX traders requiring a fast, reliable and low cost ECN trading environment.

One of the key benefits of Pepperstone is the spread that it can offer. Their Razor account has the lowest average ECN Forex spread out of all the FX brokers that were compared.

In addition to this, it is Australia’s largest online Forex broker by volume. It also provides excellent execution speed and no dealing desk intervention.

Another important aspect to consider is that Pepperstone welcomes all trading styles, including scalping, expert advisors, EAs, automated trading and hedging.

Online Brokers Australia states: “Rather than providing a large and overwhelming directory of brokers in one place, which can still be difficult to choose from, we only list the online brokers in each category that meet our initial stringent requirements test. If they don’t, then we simply won’t list them!”

Security Tips To Make You A Savvy Traveller Traveling Overseas

When you travel overseas, sometimes it becomes hard to blend in like a local.  Depending on where you are going you may look different, but the giant bags, comfortable shoes, and cameras are pretty much a “tourist” marker.  Since you stand out so much, it only makes sense that you will want to be safe during your trip.

  • Communicate!Make sure that the relevant people are aware of where you will be going and the times you will be there.  Even if you are just meandering your way and don’t have a set destination, you can still let your friends and family know where you should be.
  • Safety starts at home.Don’t make it too obvious that you are going to be away, or you may come home to a house that has been emptied of all your valuables.  If you can get someone trusted to house-sit while you are way, it may be worth it.  If not, try timers to turn on the lights and even the TV.  Make sure that doors and windows are secure.  Ask someone to collect your mail and paper so it’s not piling up.  Even making arrangements to get your lawn mowed can help confuse would be thieves.
  • Make copies of all your important documents.This includes your passport, visas, driver’s license, credit cards, itineraries, and important phone numbers.  Keep them stored in your hotel room safe while you are out and about, or safely stowed deep inside your carry-on luggage whilst traveling.
  • Don’t carry all your cards and cash in the same place.In case you get robbed, or your bag gets stolen, it’s helpful to have other options.  Keeping around $200 “safety cash” means that at worst, you can find a place to stay, get a meal and get in touch with people who can help you.  Keeping a separate bank or credit card means that other cards get stolen or compromised, you still have one that you can use.
  • Speaking of credit cards, inform your bank of your travel plans.Most card companies now employ scam algorithms. This means that they look at your buying history for anything that seems out of the ordinary.  They will lock a card from being used when this happens, and you will most likely have to show proof of identity to get it back.  This can be difficult when you are in a different country and time zone.  So, let them know in advance to lessen your chance of being frozen out of your own funds!
  • Get informed about where you are going.Many government and travel websites will let you know about any dangers or political cultures of your destinations and how safe it is to travel there.  You should be aware that in some places, you may be expected to dress or act differently, and by leaving Australia, you may be leaving some of your rights and entitlements behind.  As an example, you may be asked to cover your arms or legs whilst in public or in a temple. Refusing to do so could lead your arrest, so it’s best to do your research.
  • See your doctor before you go in case you need any immunisations.If you need daily medicine, you may need to have certified doctor’s certificates for you to be allowed them.  In some Asian countries for example, opioids like oxycodone are illegal to be transported in the country even if you have a prescription for them.
  • Keep your eyes on your belongings.  Whether you are waiting in airports or in lines, be aware of yourself and your belongings.  Don’t walk away from your bags even for a moment, and try to keep everything fastened and zipped. It may seem easier to keep that large bag pocket open to pull out your camera, but it’s also easier for someone to just reach in and pull out your items.  Resist the urge to keep anything in your back pocket either.
  • Be sceptical of what strangers are trying to tell you.If a deal is too good to be true, it probably is. Scammers are especially good at appealing to a sense of greed, so if the dollar signs are flashing in your eyes, it’s probably flashing in theirs too. It’s obvious, but always ask for ID, and never get into an un-marked cab or transportation.  If a taxi driver doesn’t want to take you to your hotel as “another is better”, be firm, or better yet, get out of the cab.
  • Listen to trusted people.If your friends or a hotel desk clerk is trying to tell you that it’s not safe to go somewhere, listen to them.  Be aware of your surroundings.  Try to travel in a group if you can, and try not to travel alone in the dark or in enclosed areas, like alleyways.

This whole list may sound dire, and it hasn’t been written to take the fun out of travelling.  Even the most season travellers have been the victims of scams or thefts.  Just try to be more aware of your surroundings and keep being sceptical of offerings.  Above all, just enjoy your holiday – albeit safely.

Orange Confirmed The New Colour Trend In Flowers

It has been reported by several large US retailers that orange is becoming a year-round colour that people are asking for.

Over the years, in the US, the importance of the orange colour in flowers seems to have increased, this is especially true for the retail market. The colour has gained in importance and industry sources there say that in roses, red accounts for 40 percent of sales and the remaining 60 percent consists of remaining colours, of which 15 percent is orange and this percentage is growing

For Americans, especially from June until Thanksgiving when it reaches its peak, orange is in high retail demand. The US public change colours according to the season and over the last three years, growers have been switching to a greater proportion of orange flowers as the colour is becoming even more important and expected to become even more year-round than seasonal as it is now.

Juan Carlos Gonzalez, Executive VP at GR Chia S.A.S. in his interview with Floral Daily on the growing demand for orange coloured flowers said, “For our chrysanthemums for example, we are now also seeing a year-round demand, usually this was only grown during the fall season. And we expect the same will happen for the other flower crops.”

The Eleven Media team found this detailed article on 27 different types of orange flowers on ProFlowers.com and thought our readers interested in growing orange flowers would like to read it to.
