1 z6977# WORLD FACTBOOK OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEMS SRI LANKA N.H.A. Karunaratne University of Nevada, Las Vegas This country report is one of many prepared for the World Factbook of Criminal Justice Systems under Bureau of Justice Statistics grant No. 90-BJ-CX-0002 to the State University of New York at Albany. The project director was Graeme R. Newman, but responsibility for the accuracy of the information contained in each report is that of the individual author. The contents of these reports do not necessarily reflect the views or policies of the Bureau of Justice Statistics or the U. S. Department of Justice. GENERAL OVERVIEW I. Political system. The national legislative body of Sri Lanka is the Parliament, which is a unicameral body, formerly called the National State Assembly or the House of Representatives. As of 1993, the parliament was composed of 225 members who are elected by the Sri Lankan citizens aged 18 years or older. The head of the Republic is the President, who is directly elected by the citizens aged 18 years or older. The term of the President is 6 years. The organization and financing of the justice system is the responsibility of the central government. The Provincial Councils may now maintain regional police departments. The executive branch of the government is composed of the President, the Prime Minister, and the cabinet. The Prime Minister is the head of government and the members of the cabinet are appointed by the President from among the Parliament members. The administrative structure consists of 8 provinces and 25 administrative districts. Each province and district is administered by a Provincial Council and a District Council respectively. The members of these councils are elected. The President appoints a Governor for
2 each province. The judicial branch of government includes the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka, the Court of Appeal, the High Court, District Courts, and Magistrate Courts. The highest court of the land is the Supreme Court. Judges are appointed. The Chief Justice and the other justices of the Supreme Court are appointed for life by the President of Sri Lanka. 2. Legal system. The legal system of Sri Lanka is a highly complex mixture of English common law, Roman-Dutch law, Muslim law, and customary laws. The basis of criminal law and procedure is the English common law. After Sri Lanka was colonized by the British Empire, British laws were gradually applied throughout the nation. Sri Lanka has an adversarial system of justice. The Attorney-General is the principal law officer of the state. The District Attorney and state counsels in his department conduct prosecutions. However, the bulk of prosecutions in minor cases are instituted in the Magistrates' Courts by the officer in charge of a police station. 3. History of the criminal justice system. Sri Lanka, known as Ceylon until 1972, is a teardrop shaped tropical island nation in the Indian Ocean lying 29 kilometers off the southeast coast of peninsular India. It has a total land area of 65,610 square kilometers with a total population of 17.4 million as of Sri Lanka's socio-economic indicators are better than average for developing countries, with an annual population growth rate estimated at 1.3%, a literacy rate of 89%, and an infant mortality rate of 18 per 1,000. Sri Lanka's annual gross domestic product growth rate averaged 5% between , and was 5.7% in Sri Lanka is a former British colony that gained independence from the British in It is now an independent republic within the commonwealth of nations. Due to the unsatisfactory nature of the existing criminal laws, which led to a state of uncertainty, the Penal Code of Sri Lanka was first enacted in It was based on the corresponding Indian law. The Criminal Procedure Code of 1898 was established and then replaced by the Administration of Justice Law of This was later replaced by the Code of Criminal Procedure Act of 1979 and the Judicature Act of 1978 as amended by the Judicature (Amendment) Act
3 of CRIME i. Classification of Crimes. The Penal Code embodies categories of offenses, the punishments to which offenders are liable under the Code and general exceptions to criminal liability. *Legal classification. Crimes are divided into two categories: (a) Grave crimes - crimes that are indictable, and (b) Minor offenses - crimes that are non-indictable. There are 21 listed grave crimes. They are (i) abduction, (2) arson and mischief, (3) burglary, (4) cattle and goat theft, (5) grievous hurt, (6) hurt by knife, (7) homicide, (8) attempted homicide, (9) rape, (i0) riot, (Ii) robbery, (12) unnatural offenses, (13) extortion, (14) cheating, misappropriation and criminal breach of trust over Rs.l,000, (15) theft of bicycles, (16) theft of property over Rs.100, (17) theft of praedial produce, (18) counterfeiting currency, (19) offenses against the state, (20) offenses under Offensive Weapons Act, and (21) exchange control offenses. *Age of criminal responsibility. The minimum age of criminal responsibility is 6 years. A child under 6 years of age is considered incapable of possessing mens tea. Those over 6 years but under 12 years are not punished unless they have attained sufficient maturity. It is left to the discretion of the magistrate to decide if a youthful offender is mature enough to stand trial. A "child" who is under the age of 14 and a "young person" who has reached the age of 14 and is under the age of 16 may be charged with any offense other than a scheduled offense, but such cases must be heard by a juvenile court. *Drug offenses. The Poisons, Opium and Dangerous Drugs Ordinance prohibits the sale and use of certain harmful substances. Drugs which are a crime to sell and use are cannabis, opium, heroin, morphine, hashish, hashish oil, cocaine, L.S.D., and psychotropic substances. 2. Crime Statistics. Crime data reported in this section were
4 obtained from the Police Administrative Report of The data reported are for the year The definitions of crimes are based on the Penal Code definitions, as reported or recorded by the police. The phrase "Drug Offense" used in Table 2 is an administrative definition used by the police to record various types of narcotics violations. TABLE I. Incidents of Serious Crime Recorded~Cleared by the Police - Sri Lanka, 1991 Crime No. of Incidents True Cases Recorded (No. of Cases Cleared) Murder Attempted Homicide Rape Arson and Mischief Burglary Cattle and Goat Theft Robbery Bicycle Theft Theft of Property over Rs.100/ Extortion 3392 Not available TABLE 2. Drug Offense Statistics, 1991 No. of No. of No. of No. of Cases Arrests Cases Convictions Detected Prosecuted *Crime regions. According to police reports, the Colombo region had the highest number of incidents of grave personal crimes (6,099) among all provinces in the year Colombo's suburbs, Nugegoda and Kelaniya, ranked second and third respectively as the areas that reported the most grave personal crimes. These are the most urbanized and populated areas of Sri Lanka. Colombo is the commerce capital and is also the largest and the most densely populated city of Sri Lanka. VICTIMS i. Groups most victimized by crime. Victim surveys have not been conducted in Sri Lanka. Therefore police records have to be relied upon for victim data. According to police
5 reports, a total of 49,212 persons became victims of grave crimes in Of this number, 38,836 were males and 10,376 were females. A breakdown by ethnic origin, age, or region is not available. 2. Victims' assistance agencies. There are a limited number of organized victim assistance programs. The government sponsors a legal aid program for victims of crime and social injustice. There are two privately administered organizations, Sumithrayo and Sahana, that are active in victim assistance. They provide counseling and other services through social workers. 3. Role of victim in prosecution and sentencing. The role of the victim in prosecution and sentencing is limited to providing evidence. 4. Victims' rights legislation. As of yet, there is no victims' legislation in Sri Lanka. rights POLICE i. Administration. The police force of Sri Lanka is modeled after the British police and is largely centralized. The police department is under the Minister of Defense/Internal Security, a position usually held by the President. The recently enacted 13th Amendment to the Constitution provides for some decentralization by requiring that any officer below the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Police shall come under the jurisdiction of the Provincial Council. However, devolution of power to the Provincial Councils is not yet complete. The police department is organized in a militaristic-style hierarchical structure. The department is led by the Inspector General of Police, who commands 3 Senior Deputy Inspectors-General who have 18 Deputy Inspectors-General below them. There are a total of 425 Senior Superintendents/Superintendents/ Assistant Superintendents of Police who oversee police stations within their districts, and report to the Deputy Inspectors-General. Over 2,500 Inspectors/Sub-Inspectors of Police, along with over 4,000 Police Sergeants, are in charge of day
6 to day operations of numerous police stations that are scattered throughout the island. They also command, conduct, or supervise the conduct of field operations. There are about 27,000 police constables who do field work. Duties of police officers range from patrol, detection, investigation, executing warrants, running local jails, traffic control, testifying in court, recordkeeping, maintaining order, service to the community, to providing security to V.I.P.'s and to large community gatherings. There is a Central Investigation Department which is patterned after Scotland Yard. It is a sophisticated detective unit that conducts the most difficult and politically sensitive investigations. There is also a Special Task Force of police commandos who are specially trained to fight terrorists. 2. Resources. *Expenditures. The total money provided in 1991 was 3,360,575,000 Rs., and of this 18,363,459 was not spent. *Number of police. There are 30,588 police officers with a civilian support staff of 2,375. The ethnic and gender background of police officers is not available. 3. Technology. *Availability of police automobiles. No. of vehicles (1991) Heavy trucks 153 Buses 64 Light vans 83 Jeeps 1271 Water bowsers 50 Tow trucks 3 Ambulances 13 Armored carriers 5 Cars 662 Motorcycles 1602 Four-wheelers 2304 *Electronic equipment. The type of equipment available includes: very high frequency nets, high frequency communication networks, high frequency message traffic, wireless telegraph, and electrical generators. Computer-aided dispatch is in the process of being established. *Weapons. General police have batons, tear gas, special batons, wicker shields, rubber bullets, and shotguns available to them. The type of
7 weapon an officer carries, other than a baton, may depend on the task to which they are assigned and their locality. Members of the Special Task Force (STF) for the Prevention of Terrorist Activities have more sophisticated weapons available to them. They also wear bulletproof vests. 4. Training and Qualifications.

They are permitted to use deadly force if their lives are threatened. *Stop/apprehend a suspect. A police officer may, with or without a warrant, arrest any person. An arrest without a warrant is permissible in cases
9 of directly witnessed or grave offenses. The majority of arrests are made without warrants. A person arrested has to be produced before a magistrate without unnecessary delay, within 24 hours in case of arrest without a warrant, or be released on bail. An arrested person may be detained in custody by order of a magistrate, pending investigation, for 15 days. If proceedings are not instituted against an arrested person at the end of this period, a magistrate may either discharge the arrestee or require the arrestee to execute a bond to appear. However, these rules have been suspended under the Emergency Regulations. A person arrested under the Prevention of Terrorism Act or for violation of Emergency Regulations may be held in detention indefinitely. *Decision to arrest. Arrested suspects are generally processed further in the criminal justice system. Usually, the decision whether or not to process the suspect further depends on the existence of a criminal record for the suspect. If no such record exists, the suspect may only be cautioned. *Search and seizure. Police must obtain a search warrant from a magistrate by showing probable cause before property can be seized. Illegal possessions can be seized without a warrant. However, the police prefer to obtain a warrant prior to seizure of property. *Confessions. A confession is not valid if it is given to a police officer, and is not admissible into evidence in a court of law. Voluntary judicial confessions are admissible. 6. Accountability. Complaints against the police are handled by the senior officials of the police department. The departmental regulations provide procedures for disciplining police officers. There were 405 complaints filed in 1991 and 22 were resolved. PROSECUTORIAL AND JUDICIAL PROCESS I. Rights of the accused. *Rights of the accused at trial. In Sri Lanka the doctrine "innocent until proven guilty" prevails. The accused has the right to notification of the charges, the right to answer to the charges, the
10 right to present witnesses, the right to confront and cross- examine opposing witnesses, and the right to legal representation. The accused also has the right to a trial by jury in cases involving indictable grave offenses. The accused person may plead guilty to a lesser offense. Offenses that are not serious in nature, specified in the Code of Criminal Procedure, may be resolved between the persons concerned. The consent of a magistrate is required if the proceedings have already begun in a court of law. *Assistance to the accused. Anyone who is unable or unwilling to hire a lawyer on his behalf is provided with legal service free of charge. 2. Procedures. *Preparatory procedures for bringing a suspect to trial. Police investigate crimes and arrest suspects. The Attorney-General is the principal law officer of the state. Indictments are required for grave offenses which are to be tried only by the High Court. Indictments are presented by the District Attorney in the name of the Attorney-General. *Official who conducts the prosecution. The District Attorney conducts the prosecution. However, the bulk of prosecutions of other than very serious crimes are instituted in the Magistrates' Court by the officer in charge of a police station. On occasion the police are assisted by state counsels. Generally, prosecution is inevitable if sufficient evidence is available to substantiate a charge. Very little discretion is exercisable at the police level. The Attorney-General or the District Attorney may decide not to prosecute for substantial reasons, but that power is rarely exercised. *Alternatives to trial. The alternatives to trial include negotiated settlements between the concerned parties, dispute resolution, plea bargaining, and medical or some other kind of supervised treatment. As stated earlier, minor offenses may be resolved between the persons concerned. If the proceedings have already been instituted in a court, the consent of the magistrate is required. A judge of the Primary Court summons the accused and aggrieved persons to appear before him to ascertain if there are acceptable bases for settling the underlying dispute amicably. A resolution by such means has the effect of an acquittal.
11 *Proportion of prosecuted cases going to trial. No information available. *Pre-trial incarceration conditions. If the suspect has a previous record, incarceration before or awaiting trial is allowed. *Bail procedure. The officer in charge of the police station that arrested the suspect may grant bail upon receiving a personal bond and after getting the agreement of the guarantor in whose care the suspect will be released. This may be done in lieu of producing a suspect before a magistrate, usually within 24 hours, as required by the law. Bail may also be granted by a Magistrate upon receiving a personal bond, a second party bond through a guarantor, and if in doubt a magistrate may ask for a cash security. If proceedings are not instituted against a suspect within 15 days of arrest, a Magistrate may either discharge the suspect or require the suspect to execute a bond to appear. *Proportion of pre-trial offenders incarcerated. In 1991, 63,145 pre-trial offenders were incarcerated. JUDICIAL SYSTEM i. Administration. The hierarchy of the judicial system is as follows: The Supreme Court of the Republic of Sri Lanka The Court of Appeal of the Republic of Sri Lanka The High Court of the Republic of Sri Lanka District Courts - (23 total) Combined Courts (civil and criminal) - (25 total) Magistrates' Courts - (52 total) Primary Courts - (21 total) The criminal courts of first instance are the Primary Courts, Magistrates' Courts, Combined Courts, and the High Court. Cases may be appealed to the Court of Appeal and further review may be sought in the Supreme Court. The High Court is the court of first instance for all prosecutions initiated with an indictment. The court of second instance is the Court of Appeal. The Supreme Court exercises final appellate jurisdiction as well as special jurisdiction for alleged violations of fundamental rights and freedoms
12 guaranteed by the Constitution. 2. Judges. *Number of judges. The Supreme Court consists of ii justices including the Chief Justice. *Appointment and qualifications. The justices of the Supreme Court and the judges of the Appeal and High Courts are appointed by the President. The judges of the lower courts are appointed by the Judicial Service Commission.

The Judicial Service Commission ranks judges into classes and grades: Special Class; Class I, Grade I; Class II, Grade I; Class III, Grade I; Class II, Grade II. Usually, judges in the top two categories serve in the District Courts, Class II Grade I judges in the Magistrates' Courts, and Class III Grade I judges in the Primary Courts. However, there is no specific rule for assigning judges to various courts. Depending on qualifications, a lawyer who has joined the judicial ranks recently may serve in a District Court. The Chief Justice, the President of the Court of Appeal, the Justices of the Supreme Court and Judges of the Court of Appeal are appointed by the President of the Republic.

The Cabin in the Woods"
"The Cabin in the Woods" is described as a tongue- in- cheek thriller- horror film. HHMMMMM what does that mean? Well does it help if I tell you that awesome Joss Whedon is producing and writing this upcoming film? At face value it sounds like a young people go camping and carnage ensues type flick,; but if you watch the trailer closely it doesn't seem so typical. Judge for yourself. I am so there opening night!!

He was off duty, so he put his 9 mm. semiautomatic pistol and its shoulder holster on a beer cooler behind the bar and sat on a stool while he chatted with a friend. A .38 snub-nosed revolver was in his pants pocket.

Via Generale Dalla Chiesa, 9
50136 Florence
Any good night in Florence begins with the time-honored aperitivo tradition followed by hanging out at bars around the piazzas, but when it's time to dance, the clubs in Florence is where the party-craving kids flirt and mingle till morning.
The biggest party scene centers around Piazza Santa Croce, where late night clubs fill up with the young and restless from all over the city. Much of the club culture in Florence is strongly influenced by the influx of study abroad international students who flood into the city from September to June and fuel the handful of dance-crazy clubs throughout town.
Although the high-end scene is less prevalent here than in other European cities, there are still plenty of hot Florence clubs where ladies in sky-high heels and mini-skirts grind with dapperly dressed guys while the masses wait in line, hoping the burly doormen will grant them entry.
Students may dominate the majority of the nightlife in Florence, but there are still other options as well with really cool jazz clubs playing to musically appreciative crowds.

I even give my neighbors inside/outside cat, Peanut, a bowl of dried food every now and then. Peanut is the wiry gray and white long haired cat that just walks around our little neighborhood. If you visit often, you have seen him. All the kids know his name and he can be often found sitting on the roof of someones car, basking in the sun. Peanut loves to visit our home. Many times I have said, wrong house Peanut, and he saunters back down the porch steps, mad that I didn't give him a snack.
Sometimes, I will leave our sliding door in our kitchen open a crack so that on nice days Lily can get in and outside to lie on the porch. One afternoon, after playing outside with the kids, I walked in to find Peanut fast asleep on our couch. Lily HATES Peanut with an extreme passion. If she had taken notice of this event, her head would have spun around 10 times and her eyes would have popped out of her head. I think that she has made it her life's purpose to beat the fur balls out of that cat. If she even sees Peanut from a distance, she charges the front door to try and get out growling and clawing because he simply walked into her sight. Many times in the evening we will be watching tv and hear the front door open and close. Andy would creep back upstairs ready to attack some intruder only to find out that it was Lily charging out the door and across the front lawn, after Peanut who stopped by for a visit. After the first three times, it became a normal noise and now no one moves from their activity, but will only comment, 'Peanut's here'.
Lily has in fact been known to smack, hiss, and growl at me, for even saying in that sickly high voice you use to address animals and babies, 'Hello Peanut.' And you better believe that Peanut runs away as fast as he can. Can you blame him? You too would take off if a 30 pound raging ball of fur was charging you. I have no idea why I am rambling on about Peanut, perhaps only to explain that if you are over our house and Lily starts acting like she was possessed, or thrashing around shrieking and growling like a flea is stuck up her nose, it is only that Peanut is around. Or maybe it is to tell you that if you see a gray and white cat in our home acting like it is his, do me a favor and kindly remind him that he is at the wrong house. He will swagger out of the house and down the front steps with his nose in the air as if to tell you that he knows and that his rump can be anywhere it wants to be. He'll get over it.
So I wrote all about this cat in my blog last year. We say that Mom Mom's is his Foster home, since, a. that is their last name and b. I still stake claim to him. We just clearly cannot have another male cat in our home, unless of course we claim Lily to be a rabid beast for the rest of her life. Andy Kitty is the lucky member of the Black Cat Family. The Black Cat Family was donned the name by Kendall who decided that the stray cats should have a name, and since they ALL have Black fur, the name was created. So original, a genius I tell you. The Black Cat Family resides in the woods near the Court, and was clearly here before our homes were. You won't see or hear them unless there are kittens, because one gave birth in the bushes of our home, or one got smushed by a car on the main road through our development and I am pulled over on the side of the road in tears at the sight of such a terrible tragedy. All in all the Black Cat Family pretty much dislikes humans and avoid us. I think they hold resentment over the fact that we built our homes on their land. But I don't mind them, they mind their business, we mind ours, for the most part, such is cohabitation.
Andy Kitty, however, clearly loves farm life. He is the ruler of the roost. A cat. Really. He struts around the farm like he is in charge of all walks of life there. I could not have picked a better home, he is thriving. Ok, so at one point a 1/4 of his tail was mysteriously chopped off, but really it was much to long and fluffy. This cat though is a beast. I am writing this post to commemorate his first year of life, and when you see the photos you will not believe that he is only one year. Maybe you don't really even care to commemorate such an event, and you can go and crawl back into your little hole and be miserable all day long.
Did you get a good look at the size of that beast? No, he isn't dead, just all sprawled out in this really indecent shot...sorry 'bout that, just wanted to get the full effect of his grandiose size for you. I think he really needs to start watching the middle, high cholesterol, diabetes, we can't have that...diet time. But I mean really, do all species of males have to sit with their legs spread out like this? I am beginning to think I should do a study...regardless...So, Happy Belated Birthday Andy Kitty. This is a little overdue, he turned one in about May or so, and we had a little Party for him. We brought over a ball with Cat Nip in it from Lily, since she declined the invite, she's a snob like that, and dined on Fancy Feast...ok, so we ate Tuna Fish sandwiches, but all his foster brothers and sisters munched happily on the wonderful canned cat food cuisine. No, I really don't believe in pet birthday parties, but thought this would be a fun activity for the kids on a rainy day. People that order dog food cakes from a special bakery and send out invites inviting all their canine friends over for the party simply, needs lives, or a hobby, or to get rid of their animal, this is abuse. Dogs in party hats is not nice.
So if you aren't a cat person, shame on you, and you most likely hated this post, double shame on you. Who doesn't like themselves a furry little creature that has more attitude then my daughter on a bad day?
"Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs
should relax and get used to the idea."

Finding the best life insurance rates for 30 year olds begins with the most frequent question asked.
Which life insurance company is the best?
That's a short question, but a difficult answer.
First, you'll want to know which life insurance companies are the best with a medical exam and no medical exam life insurance.
Keep reading and learn how to find the best life insurance company that you can qualify for based on your health, lifestyle and goals.
What do Jim Croce, Andy Gibb, Lisa Lopes and Patsy Cline all have in common? They all passed away at age 30.
Life Insurance Rates for 30 Year Olds
Life insurance rates by age can sometimes vary by a wide margin depending on your age and the life insurance company that you choose.
If you have a current or preexisting health condition, it can make an even bigger difference in what you will end up paying.
Shopping for life insurance when you're in your 30s is an ideal time.
You more than likely have begun to add responsibilities during this phase of your life.
You may have gotten married recently and may even have children. Your career is often underway and you may have purchased your first home.
All of these responsibilities need protection with life insurance.
If you were to pass away, your family will be left without your current and future income.
Life insurance is the perfect solution for this dilemma.
You are able to secure a great rate when you purchase life insurance at age 30.
It's a great time to buy, because rates are at an all time low for Whole Life or Term Life insurance.
For the majority of 30 year olds, buying life insurance is:
- Inexpensive
- Quick
- Simple
Life insurance is inexpensive the younger you buy.
Underwriting is usually quicker in your 30s, especially with No Medical Exam life insurance.
Purchasing life insurance is simple, because most 30 year olds don't have significant health issues that complicate the process.
Calculating how much life insurance you'll need isn't very difficult when you're 30.
You should have a good idea how much your salary is now and your future earning potential.
Life Insurance at 30- Buy Now or Later?
Postponing life insurance is usually a bad idea.
It is only advised for a few situations like with tobacco use or DUI. Purchasing life insurance when you're 30 and healthy shouldn't be put off. Rates will only increase as you age.
You are at a very competitive age for the life insurance companies.
They work hard and crunch the numbers trying their best to lower rates and stay competitive in the market.
This results in an excellent buying opportunity for you.
You'll get to choose from any of the insurance companies providing excellent rates.
This goes for medical and non medical exam life insurance. You can read more about this in our article, pros and cons of no exam life insurance.
What if you have a health condition? Just know that every life insurance carrier is different with their underwriting rules.
Some health conditions will be looked at more favorably by some life insurance carriers than others.
At LifeInsuranceBlog, we don't use a cookie cutter quoting system like the big call centers. Instead, we get to know you, research your options and find you the best companies based on your unique situation. Call us at 888-411-1329 for a personalized quote.
Ready to learn and gain a full understanding of the life insurance options available to you?
Read on to find out just how much you should expect to pay for life insurance when you're 30 for a variety of life situations.
Life Insurance At Age 30
For most 30 year olds, buying term life insurance will typically not be difficult.
In fact, it should be quite easy and fast.
When you are researching the lowest priced life insurance rates for 30 year olds, you need to understand 3 things.
These 3 questions should be answered before putting in an application.
- Am I choosing the best term life insurance policy at age 30?
- Should I get a policy that requires a Medical Exam or a No Exam policy?
- Is there a benefit with shopping directly with the insurance company?
Choosing the Best Term Life Insurance Plan at Age 30?
You're different.
Nobody is exactly like you.
Your health, family history, height, weight and other factors make you unique.
What isn't unique is the term lengths that 30 year olds buy.
20 and 30 term life insurance policies are very common because you're young.
But you need to ask what is the purpose of your policy?
If you recently purchased a home, you may have a significant amount left on your mortgage.
Your income will probably be difficult to replace at this age.
Do you have children or planning in the future? Will your life insurance policy pay for their education?
These questions are very important and need to be addressed.
Sometimes term life insurance won't meet your goals.
Perhaps you're looking for life insurance that won't expire in 20 or 30 years. Guaranteed Universal Life (GUL) can give you coverage to a certain age.
Guaranteed Universal Life is often referred to as "Lifetime Term."
GUL policies can be bought to cover you up to a maximum age 121. This life insurance option is perfect for those that need peace of mind because GUL will cover you for your entire life.
Should I Buy a Medical Exam or No Exam Life Insurance Policy?
Typically, a life insurance policy requires a medical exam before you can buy.
This might be the only type of life insurance you've heard of if you're a first time buyer.
A medical exam (or paramedical exam) nurse or examiner will gather the following details:
- Height
- Weight
- Cholesterol
- Blood Pressure
- Blood Sample
- Urine Sample
The medical exam is very much like a yearly physical.
The results of the medical exam will be sent to the life insurance company to be analyzed.
The medical exam is free.
It is paid for by your life insurance agent or the life insurance carrier.
Life Insurance Agents
Working with an independent life insurance agent can save you a significant amount of money.
Your life insurance agent should be asking you important questions that the life insurance companies will be underwriting.
A good life insurance agent will gather all of your health and lifestyle details so they can quote you correctly.
Your quote will be directly dependent on your information. If you leave out anything, your quote could be wrong!
The details you provide is key. Your quote is only based on the information you provide your life insurance agent.
Applying to a company based on inaccurate information can be a disaster.
Now, what if something does pop up on the medical exam or health history?
It is possible that you won't qualify for your original life insurance quote and your rate might be higher.
Of course this will all depend on what was found during underwriting. The life insurance company may even deny you a policy altogether if the results were severe.
No Exam Life Insurance
Do you hate needles?
Do you want a policy approved quickly?
These are just a few of the reasons why someone would want an No Exam Life Insurance policy.
These policies are extremely convenient for the life insurance shopper.
Many people hate giving blood samples and scared of needles.
No Medical Life Insurance policies have much shorter approval times. process.
No Exam policies usually have a list of medical questions, a medication database check, and a motor vehicle report.
Some policies are approved in less than a day and some instantly!
Medical vs. Non Medical Insurance Rates for a 30 Year Old
Instantly compare life insurance rates for no medical and medical exam life insurance.
Just use our free online quoters to compare.
COMPANY TIPS: No Exam life insurance is becoming much more accessible.
More life insurance companies are offering No Exam policies.
The following are several of the stronger companies for Non Medical life insurance.
Transamerica and American National often have great rates for no medical exam life insurance. However, their approval times do take longer than companies such as Sagicor and Fidelity.
Transamerica and American National will not require a medical exam, but your medical records from your doctor will be requested.
Since they request these records, their approval typically takes about 3-4 weeks.
Sagicor can approve your policy in less than 15 minutes and up to 48 hours. Fidelity has approval times around 24 hours.
If you need to get your life insurance policy fast – choose Fidelity Life or Sagicor.
Should I Buy Directly From a Life Insurance Company?
When you buy from the life insurance company it can be a potential disaster.
Here's why.
Every life insurance company sends their life insurance rates for approval to each state's insurance department.
Life insurance companies will come up with their rates prior to submitting them.
When the insurance department approves the rates, the companies must sell at those rates.
You will not receive a better rate for the same policy by going direct or with an agent or broker.
When you buy direct, you'll never know if that company is the best rate that YOU qualify for.
The life insurance company is not going to let you know if their competitor will save you money.
An independent life insurance agent can.
This is even more important if something comes up during the underwriting process.
What if your cholesterol or blood pressure is elevated? If you buy direct, you might get rated up to a different health class. This simply means your rate will be higher than when you applied.
How will you know which company is the best for you?
You won't.
Only agents have access to the underwriting guides to every life insurance company.
The best way to get the lowest life insurance rate is to work with an independent life insurance agent.
Your agent can shop from multiple life insurance companies.
At LifeInsuranceBlog, we work with over 60 of the best rated life insurance companies.
We'll find the best life insurance companies that will give you the best chance of coverage at the best price.
Best Term Life Companies For a 30 Year Old?
You're young and most likely healthy when you're 30 years old.
Finding a life insurance company to meet your goals and budget should be pretty simple. If you have any health conditions such as High blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, you'll want to apply quickly.
Putting off life insurance with health conditions may make it difficulty or impossible later on.
Whether you're healthy or have some health issues, there is a competitive life insurance company for your unique situation.
Some companies offer the best rates when you're in perfect health. Other companies are more competitive with certain health risks. Applying with the right company is key
Although the market changes every year – the life insurance companies below generally have the cheapest rates and best term life insurance coverage for 30 year olds.

The EC&M editorial canon: Don't operate in a vacuum
Keeping its finger on the industry's pulse is an ongoing task for our editorial staff. In fact, it's a must.
So how do we find out what's hot and what's not? Certainly, active participation in industry associations and standards-making groups helps. Take our National Electrical Code coverage, for example. Our Senior Editor Fred Hartwell is Principal Member and Secretary of NFPA Code Making Panel 9. Because of Fred's "behind the scenes" activities, we're able to take you into the code-making process—passing on the thinking behind NEC rules and their revisions.
Senior Editor Bob Morgan is a member of IEEE Working Group P1346, which is writing a new standard, Recommended Practice for Evaluating Electric Power System Compatibility with Electronic Process Equipment. It will be known as the Yellow Book. Bob sits on the judging panel for the American Consulting Engineers Council and is a member of the National Academy of Forensic Engineers.
Technical Editor Mark Lamendola is a board member of the Midwest Chapter of the Uninterruptible Uptime Users Group (UUUG) and was past keynote speaker at its conference. He's also webmaster and newsletter editor for the Kansas City's IEEE section.
Senior Editorial Consultant Joe Knisley is a member of the Illuminating Engineering Society, regularly attending the organization's meetings and conferences. He keeps abreast of trends, such as indirect lighting, and problem areas, such as VDT glare. He's also actively involved with BICSI and its activities in the voice/data and telecommunications industry.
Senior Editorial Consultant Bob Lawrie is a member of the NFPA 70B committee that worked on the pending new edition of this standard on electrical maintenance. He closely follows EASA (Electrical Apparatus Service Association) and its activities in motor repair and maintenance.
A new tool, and one that I'm very excited about, is the EC&M Editorial Advisory Board. It's made up of two readers from each of our major reader categories (electrical engineers, electrical plant/facility maintenance people, and electrical contractors). Their job is to critique each article and department per issue. We're not looking for "pats on the back." Constructive criticism are the key words here. Important points are viability of topic, extent of coverage, technical accuracy, and overall interest. Also included are readability and ease of comprehension.
So who's on the Advisory Board? People with hands-on experience in their respective field, that's who. Representing the consulting engineering category are:
Paul E. Pritzker, P.E., Chairman of George Slack & Pritzker, Forensic Consulting Engineers, Canton, Mass., and joint founder and second president of the National Academy of Forensic Engineers.
Drew D. Daniels, P.E., Associate Partner and Chief Electrical Engineer for the Central Utilities Group, Syska & Hennessy, New York, N.Y. Representing the electrical plant/facility maintenance category are:
John Weber, Director of Building Facilities, LEGO Systems, Enfield, Conn.
Joseph A. Cannatelli, P.E., formerly Senior Advisor and Electrical Engineer, ARCO Chemical Co., Newtown Square, Pa. Representing the electrical contracting category are:
Donald A. Mountjoy, President and CEO, NEWCO Electric Co., Inc., Erie, Pa.
John R. Cleveland, Vice President, Cleveland Electric, Inc., Atlanta, Ga.
Each board member's input (along with the information gathered from our other sources) will ensure our coverage of the electrical construction industry is current, accurate, and most importantly, useful to you.
Incidentally, if you have specific comments about the magazine, feel free to contact us. We're extremely interested in what you have to say. For contact information, see the box at the end of Letters to the Editor or e-mail me at [email protected]

Jennifer Morrison attended the 'Knife Fight' premiere during the 2012 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City last night.
The actress becomes the third celebrity this week to wear a look from the now very popular Donna Karan Pre-Fall 2012 collection.
Her sleek strapless black-and-white jumpsuit with wide-legged pants was styled with aqua-stone earrings and an orange lip colour.
A simple ponytail was all that was needed to make this look red carpet ready.
I love that she didn't try to make the look too dressy or fussy.
You may remember that Rooney Mara wore this same look on 'The David Letterman Show' earlier this year.

From Australia:
My daughter is on an insulin pump. Should we be considering giving her other drugs such as amylin and C-Peptides(when they become available)?
Amylin is already available, but there is not much data to suggest it has any significant benefit in a classical type 1 patient with diabetes on pump treatment. There is almost no data to suggest any therapeutic use of C-Peptide of which I am aware either.
