PER CURIAM.

We find no error in the trial proceedings below, nor abuse of discretion in the challenged portions of the final judgment of dissolution which (a) awarded the wife the husband's interest in the marital home as lump-sum alimony, Canakaris v. Canakaris, 382 So.2d 1197(Fla.1980);Hague v. Hague, 382 So.2d 852(Fla. 3d DCA1980), and cases cited; (b) fixed the amount of permanent periodic alimony, Herzog v. Herzog, 346 So.2d 56(Fla.1977);Shaw v. Shaw, 334 So.2d 13(Fla.1976) and (c) provided for the payment of Ms. Seum's attorney's fees by Mr. Seum.Canakaris v. Canakaris, supra;Creel v. Creel, 378 So.2d 1251(Fla. 3d DCA1979).There are, however, no special circumstances presented in the record which justify the requirement that she be named the beneficiary of his life insurance policies.SeeWatterson v. Watterson, 353 So.2d 1185(Fla. 1st DCA1978);Blass v. Blass, 316 So.2d 308(Fla. 3d DCA1975).Upon remand, this provision shall be stricken from the judgment, which is otherwise affirmed.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part.
