Garko' s two-run homer in the ninth off All-Star closer Bobby Jen~s tied it 5-5 for the Indian s. who have made co mebacks their calling card this seaso n. ATLANTA (AP) Bronson Arroyo finally was back on top of his game against the Atlanta Braves. Arroyo shut out Atlanta . for seven innings, Jeff Keppinger capitalized on a rare start by hitting a two~ run double and the Cincinnati Reds held on to beat the Braves 6-S on . Tuesday ni~ht. · "It felt mce to come out and feel good while putting up a lot of zeros," Arroyo said. "I hadn't done that in a long time ." Arroyo (4-10) , an AllStar last year, matched his season low by giving up only three hits and matched his season high with nine strikeouts. He did not allow a run in a start for the fi rst time since Sel?t · 25 against the Chicago Cubs. " He commanded just about everythinjl he threw up there," sa1d Brav~:s manager Bobby Cox. "I know he's having a rough year, but he's lost a lot of tough ball games, too. He's one of the class .pitcbers, for me . I've always liked him." Chipper Jones, who went 2-fo t-4 overall , was 0-for-2 with a walk against Arroyo. Jones 6aid he felt confident at the plate -"until he was dragging his bat back to the dugout. "You know, be's a comfortable at-bat, but he's one of those guys that, you're comfortable for four .at· bats and you ' re wondering at the end of the night how you ' re 0-for-4," Jones said. "That's what makes it so frustrating. You feel like you can get pitches to hit but he changes speeds so well , he changes arm angles and he 'keeps you off-balance." .. Ken Griffey Jr. and Brandon Phillil?s added two-run singles m a fourrun seventh inning before the Braves answered with four run s off Mike Stanton in the eighth. Arroyo began Tuesday night's game ranking among the NL leaders in losses , hits and runs Please see Reds. 86 �' .. . ·"' Page 82 • The Daily Sentinel ;W~~~ne~ad~ay~t~Ju~~~18~,~~~;;;;~;;;;;;~;;;;;;;;;;~~www~;·;m;y;da:ll~y~se;n~tl:ne;l:.co:m~~~~iiiiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiiiiiii:iii Wednesday, July 18,2007 V,tww.mydallysentlnel. com t It· ~~ I ~ ro f1N 28>54. ti!f!7 lub, dishwasher, slave, refrldg.

Reds Time for Europe to shQw its strength BY DOUG FERGUSON ASSOCIATED PRESS CARNOUSTIE. Scotland - European golf has never been stronger. At least in September. And as long as the players are wearing matching clothes. Europeans boast about their talent every other year in the Ryder Cup, and rightly so. They have beaten the Americans five of the last six times, and beaten them by record margins the last two matches. It now has reached the point that most people recognize Europe as havmg the stronger team. But the Ryder Cup is only an exhibition, and a highly entertaining one. Majors are what define greatness in golf. And until a European wins a major championship, all that bluster about European strength means nothing. "Now is the time," Colin Montgomerie said last week at Loch Lomond. "We spoke about the Ryder Cup team last year in September, about how it was the strongest that it's ever been. And now is the time that I think one of us should come forward. I think we are good enough to come forward now and win." They sure had their chances-last year. Montgomerie squandered his opportunity when he missed the green with a 7iron from the middle 'of the 18th fairway at Winged Foot. Sergio Garcia started the final round of the British Open one shot out of the lead and finished seven shots behind Tiger Woods. Benoit. fromPageBl old Daniel, placed Bibles next to their bodies and then hanged himself on the cable of a weight machine June 22.

Michael Vick's guilt has not yet been proven, and we believe that all concerned should allow the legal process to determine the facts.,, Vick and the Falcons are scheduled to report to training camp on July 25. "Obviously, we are disturbed by today's news." the team said in a statement posted on .its Web site, apologizing to fans for the negative publicity. "We will do the right thing. for our club as the legal process plays out. We have a season to ·prepare for," it said. John Goodwin of the Humane Society said the manner in which losing or unwilling dogs were killed was especially troubling. "Some of the grisly details in these filings shocked even me, and I'm a person who faces this stuff every day," he said. "I was surprised to see that they were killing dogs by hanging them and one dog was killed by slamming it to the ground. Those are extremely violent methods of execution -they're . unnecessary and just sick." ~ Vick and the others are accused of "knowingly sponsoring and exhibiting an animal fighting venture" and conducting a business enterprise involving gambling, as well as buying. transporting and receiving dogs for the purposes of- an animal fightmg venture. About eight yoyng dogs were put to ' death at the Surry County home after they were found not ready to fight in Apri I 2007, the indictment said.

He was one shot out of the lead with two holes to play at the Masters, then promptly took double bogey on the 17th hole. "You look at the Ryder, that validates that we have a core of very strong players," Donald said. "We've really dominated it in the last 10 to 15 years. Somehow, we've got to transition that to individual players." He also referred to the wor'td rankings, where Europe has six players among the top 20; the United States has five. "We obviously are talented enough," Donald said. "We just haven't done it yet. But I think it's only a matter of time. When we do, that will definitely validate the Europeans as a bunch of great players." Montgomerie writes off the eight-year drought as coincidence, that and Woods hogging the Grand Slam events. Nick Faldo, known more for his six majors than his incomparable Ryder Cup record for Europe, is startiqg to wonder if the. very thing that helps his comrades in the Ryder Cup is what holds them back in the majors.

"Our study underscores that Governor Strickland and the Ohio General Assembly are making the right moves in supporting family caregivers by funding additional long-term care options and services ," said AARP Ohio State President Joanne Limbach .

While the care they provide often goes unnoticed, their contributions often delay--n'r prevent more costly nursing home care and that can have a positive impact on the federal and state Medicaid budget. Most family caregivers are women who are employed full or part-time and nearly one-fifth of all U.S. workers are caregivers (19 percent).

Additionally, the caregivers' own health is often at risk as they are more likely to suffer chronic health conditions and incur medical debt than non-caregivers.

Our world is now dependent on advanced technology just to function. Every type of business, organization, medical facility, bank, weather reports, news, grocery stores, libraries, and just anything you can think of is now based on computers. They are quick and they are great timesavers, and for the most part, very accurate. With all of the good that computers have done for all of us, there is an element in our society that is using this same technology to commit crimes every hour of every day. This article addresses just one type of criminal activity that is based on computers. The world we now live in is far different than that laid back world thar most of us over the age of 60 knew and grew up in. We drank out of the same bottle of pop, nearly all men smoked or chewed tobacco, we learned to create our own games and forms of entenainment because television. computer games, microwave ovens , cell phones, air conditioning, electric freezers and refrigerators. automatic · washers and dryers, ball point pens . pocket calculators. plus numerous other modem-day gadgets were not pan of our world . Doctors back in our youth stoves, paint spray fumes, buming old tires, or from that diesel powered truck you are stuck behind on a highway that belches that black exhaust smoke right into our vehicle. Please excuse my ranting and raving, but it seems that every time some ruedical research organization reports that this or that is bad for your health, it isn't long until another medical discovery comes out that proves the original report to be very inaccurate and unfounded. This has been the pattern for the past 25 years or longer. For over 10 years, we have received numerous reports 'at the Gallia County Senior Resource Center about the latest scams and of senior citizens who have fallen for these thieves and crooks, and · consequently, have become victims right here in the Tri-Couno/ area. It has always been our policy to keep our readers o( the Senior Quarterly that appears in The Daily Sentinel, the Gallipolis Daily Tribune, and the Point Pleasant. Register informed and warned about these various criminal activities. We hope you always read these warnings and take heed so that you don't become another victim. Recently, we saw a long article that was published in the Ohio Retired Teachers Quarterly magazine that . immediately caught my attention. H~re it is. This article deals with the "809 Area Code Scam" and ltte concemed writers are correct that this is a real scam that can be very dangerous to anyone who uses their phone to dial Area Code 809 . The result could be a phone bill in the thousands of dollars. Several people have received phone bills of over $24,000. The 2007 Summer Senior Quarterly . READERS WARNED NOT TO USE 809 AREA CODE made house calls and did not specialize in anything except knowing how to treat everything from pneumonia to poison ivy, to chicken pox, to stitching up our tom skin, to baby colic, and dozens of other medical problems. But we still made it, even though we all had certain chores to perform, attend school, and behave ourselves, and go to church. Because we had loving parents who not only raised us, but showed us some tough love when the occasion arose. It was called discipline. But we still made it, all the way into out 008, 70s, 80s and 90s. We didn't know IAA.bsmolcing, drinking coffee, eating~, drinking pop, eating cheese, any kind of red meat, cookies, Jl9laiO chips, or drinking out of the same weD bucket could kiD us. Our air back in those days was clean and refreshing. Not ftlled with chemicals, toxins, or engine exhaust fumes like we breathe now here in our region and in the most of our United States. We also did not .know that prayer in school, prayer in a courtroom, or participating in a high school baccalaureate service would warp our minds and not be good for us . .Now we are faced with more lifestyle changes because we are living in the new modem world of high-tech elecIronies where instant communication is demanded, and required just to keep us alive and informed. Breathing second-hand smoke will cause cancer and now smoking is prohibited even outside, but not the toxic smoke from fireworks displays, trash and dump fires , or from fireplaces, or from wood-burning stoves, coal Wednesday, J~y . 19, 2007 . scary part of-the scam is the way the scarnmer tries•to get you to call the number. They may send a message on your pager, your fax machine, by e-mail, call you on your telephone, or ort your telephone answering machines, along with an urgent notice that you need to respond too immediately. Here are some .examples of . messages you get: · • You have won SQme kind of a big sweepstakes or lottery. • A family member is ~per­ ately ill. • A relative needs you. • A biD or Ci'edit card is way overdue and needs your ~ntion right now, or they are offering you some kind of a gravy job that includes a huge salacy, plus a big bonus, with very little work required. Hello! · If you are one of those people . who just has to know and cannot resist the urge to call, you decide to call this 809 area code to see what the problem is. The time clock begins to tick and charge you for every second as soon as you dial 809. ·You are connected to a fax machine, ot a lengthy recorded message, or a pay-per-<:all service with a huge upfront fee that is charged to you because your call is going through some foreign company, and your charges mount up quickly. Your crook on the other end is operating on a foreign country service, which in turn will bill your local phone company. The foreign phone company is operating outside of the United States and is not subject to any regulations requiring the operators of pay-per-c;tll ser- vice to notify callers in advance of any charges, and giving them the chance to hang up to stop the charges. This scam has been around in one form or another for a number of years, because most Arilericans rela4: it to calling an 800 toll-free number. Keep in mind, you are not calling a tollfree 800 number at all: Your call through area 809 works not only with 809, but also a variety of other foreign and Caribbean area codes. Sometimes you have to make a tough decision because not all 809 numbers are part of this latest scam. 'You may know someone in that area code with whom you've been talking to in the past and there is nothing wrong with continuing to talk to these friends or relatives on the telephone . . What you must avoid is the solicitations to contact someone who is not ,familiar to you, reganlless of which area code it is, or what they want to speak to you about. Iris also strongly suggested that you always read your phone bill very closely to see that you are receiving cl)arges only from your provider.

"These firms are kriown as 'headhunters,"' Perdue said. "They charge residents to find unclaimed property, sometimes by using dubious approaches." For instance, a company might merely send a resident an advertisement infonning him or her that $200,000, or some other eye-catching figure, "may" be coming to them. All the resident needs to do is send money for a: file search. The company sends a letter thereafter saying nothing turned up. There is no basis to believe that person has money coming to them, Perdue said. "It's just preying upon peo:ple," he said. Such firms seem attractive because many people aren't even aware of what unclaimed property is, Perdue said.

Our world is now dependent on advanced technology just to function. Every type of business, organization, medical facility, bank, weather reports, news, grocery stores, libraries, and just anything you can think of is now based on computers. They are quick and they are great timesavers, and for the most part, very accurate. With all of the good that computers have done for all of us, there is an element in our society that is using this same technology to commit crimes every hour of every day. This article addresses just one type of criminal activity that is based on computers. The world we now live in is far different than that laid back world thar most of us over the age of 60 knew and grew up in. We drank out of the same bottle of pop, nearly all men smoked or chewed tobacco, we learned to create our own games and forms of entenainment because television. computer games, microwave ovens , cell phones, air conditioning, electric freezers and refrigerators. automatic · washers and dryers, ball point pens . pocket calculators. plus numerous other modem-day gadgets were not pan of our world . Doctors back in our youth stoves, paint spray fumes, buming old tires, or from that diesel powered truck you are stuck behind on a highway that belches that black exhaust smoke right into our vehicle. Please excuse my ranting and raving, but it seems that every time some ruedical research organization reports that this or that is bad for your health, it isn't long until another medical discovery comes out that proves the original report to be very inaccurate and unfounded. This has been the pattern for the past 25 years or longer. For over 10 years, we have received numerous reports 'at the Gallia County Senior Resource Center about the latest scams and of senior citizens who have fallen for these thieves and crooks, and · consequently, have become victims right here in the Tri-Couno/ area. It has always been our policy to keep our readers o( the Senior Quarterly that appears in The Daily Sentinel, the Gallipolis Daily Tribune, and the Point Pleasant. Register informed and warned about these various criminal activities. We hope you always read these warnings and take heed so that you don't become another victim. Recently, we saw a long article that was published in the Ohio Retired Teachers Quarterly magazine that . immediately caught my attention. H~re it is. This article deals with the "809 Area Code Scam" and ltte concemed writers are correct that this is a real scam that can be very dangerous to anyone who uses their phone to dial Area Code 809 . The result could be a phone bill in the thousands of dollars. Several people have received phone bills of over $24,000. The 2007 Summer Senior Quarterly . READERS WARNED NOT TO USE 809 AREA CODE made house calls and did not specialize in anything except knowing how to treat everything from pneumonia to poison ivy, to chicken pox, to stitching up our tom skin, to baby colic, and dozens of other medical problems. But we still made it, even though we all had certain chores to perform, attend school, and behave ourselves, and go to church. Because we had loving parents who not only raised us, but showed us some tough love when the occasion arose. It was called discipline. But we still made it, all the way into out 008, 70s, 80s and 90s. We didn't know IAA.bsmolcing, drinking coffee, eating~, drinking pop, eating cheese, any kind of red meat, cookies, Jl9laiO chips, or drinking out of the same weD bucket could kiD us. Our air back in those days was clean and refreshing. Not ftlled with chemicals, toxins, or engine exhaust fumes like we breathe now here in our region and in the most of our United States. We also did not .know that prayer in school, prayer in a courtroom, or participating in a high school baccalaureate service would warp our minds and not be good for us . .Now we are faced with more lifestyle changes because we are living in the new modem world of high-tech elecIronies where instant communication is demanded, and required just to keep us alive and informed. Breathing second-hand smoke will cause cancer and now smoking is prohibited even outside, but not the toxic smoke from fireworks displays, trash and dump fires , or from fireplaces, or from wood-burning stoves, coal Wednesday, J~y . 19, 2007 . scary part of-the scam is the way the scarnmer tries•to get you to call the number. They may send a message on your pager, your fax machine, by e-mail, call you on your telephone, or ort your telephone answering machines, along with an urgent notice that you need to respond too immediately. Here are some .examples of . messages you get: · • You have won SQme kind of a big sweepstakes or lottery. • A family member is ~per­ ately ill. • A relative needs you. • A biD or Ci'edit card is way overdue and needs your ~ntion right now, or they are offering you some kind of a gravy job that includes a huge salacy, plus a big bonus, with very little work required. Hello! · If you are one of those people . who just has to know and cannot resist the urge to call, you decide to call this 809 area code to see what the problem is. The time clock begins to tick and charge you for every second as soon as you dial 809. ·You are connected to a fax machine, ot a lengthy recorded message, or a pay-per-<:all service with a huge upfront fee that is charged to you because your call is going through some foreign company, and your charges mount up quickly. Your crook on the other end is operating on a foreign country service, which in turn will bill your local phone company. The foreign phone company is operating outside of the United States and is not subject to any regulations requiring the operators of pay-per-c;tll ser- vice to notify callers in advance of any charges, and giving them the chance to hang up to stop the charges. This scam has been around in one form or another for a number of years, because most Arilericans rela4: it to calling an 800 toll-free number. Keep in mind, you are not calling a tollfree 800 number at all: Your call through area 809 works not only with 809, but also a variety of other foreign and Caribbean area codes. Sometimes you have to make a tough decision because not all 809 numbers are part of this latest scam. 'You may know someone in that area code with whom you've been talking to in the past and there is nothing wrong with continuing to talk to these friends or relatives on the telephone . . What you must avoid is the solicitations to contact someone who is not ,familiar to you, reganlless of which area code it is, or what they want to speak to you about. Iris also strongly suggested that you always read your phone bill very closely to see that you are receiving cl)arges only from your provider. Now, if you) feel that you have been scammed, you must immediately contact the carrier With whom the charge originated. Their name and phone number should be printed on the bill you received.

(MS) - ' People plan for many· things well in advance. Finances are set astde for schooling, purchasing a home, retirement, and even vacations. Despite being a certainty, fewer people plan for their own death and funeral. Death is not an easy subject to discuss , especially when it's your own. Few people enjoy facing their own mortality. Some avoid doing so for superstitious reasons. Others feel it's not something to .consider while they're in the prime of their lives ... death being a long way off. But as one knows , passing away is not something that ' can be scheduled. Advanced planning can ensure your wishes are followed and remove some of the emotional and financial burden from relatives. There are dozen s of decisions and tasks that come into play with funeral planning_. The average'cost of a funeral, as of July 2004, was $6,500. That cost includes an outer burial container, but does not include cemetery costs . Finances are just one of the many tasks relatives would have to handle without preplanning on your part. Here are some ways to consider pre-plannmg : • contact the funeral director • choose a cemetery • arrange the date with clergy/church • hire -organist .and vocalist • contact insurance agents • select a casket and burial location • choose clothing • decide on flowers and music • arrange transportation • contact friends and family • order thank-you cards • sign legal papers • pay for the services of doctors, funeral directors, etc . • secure lodging for out-of-town guests Depending on the advanced planning you make and the servtce you use, many of these tas)(s can be handled, leaving relatives to take care of the personal condolences . This makes it easier for them to cofe during a time of grieving and uncertainty instead o having to worry aiJout details . It also ensures that they are rrot taken advantage of financially by the rare people who profit at the expense of another's grief. • Options Abound There are many options in advanced funeral arrangements. One popular choice is to use a service that, in essence, stores your money and wishes in a trust of sorts . This money is protected and doesn't appear as income in the event that you need to be put into a nursing home and your assets are investigated to pay for it. Another reason this scenario is advantageous ts that if you move, your funds and plans can be sent to the funeral home of your choice- you're not locked into the location in which you made the plans . Pre-planning services also have payment options that can be <fone in a single payment or in afford· able monthly payments . And some services can provide tax advantages you may not have been aware of. Using a service such as this allows you to consider all the options well in advance and really give thought to how you ' d like your wishes to be earned out. It also allows you to group all of your information in one place , makin g it very easy for relatives to carry out. If you think pre-planning might be the right idea for you , di sc uss it with your fa111ily and explore the options.

This is arguably the greatest reason why all people should have a will. Even if you're a young parent in seemingly perfect health, you should ha·v e a will. A common misconception is that people with limited assets don't need a will, as common sense will dictate which of their family members . will get what they have when they pass away. However, some states have laws wherein a decedent's assets are distributed by the state if the decedent does not have a will. Even if your estate is small, your assets won't necessarily be distributed according to your intentions if you don't have a written record of those intentions. · Even jointly shared assets require estate planning. Some people feel that jointly shared assets are a way around estate planning. While it's true that jointly shared assets can avoid probate (until the last owner's death, that is) , jointly shared assets might be subject to estate or gift taxes. In addition, jointly shared assets are subject to creditors of all owners, which can create problems . Finally; if a decedent with jointly shared assets did not intend for those assets to be transferred to the other owner upon the decedent's , death, Proper estate planning involves careful thought and examination of all assets, however big or small your estate might be. without an estate plan, the surviving joint owner will have all assets transferred to him. · Estate planning is for you as well. Estate planning is not done simply to ensure your family's financial security upon your passing. While a will is expressly concerned with dividing your estate upon your death, estate planning can (and should) provide for you during your lifetime, should you become incapacitated due to old age, illness or an accident. In addition, estate planning is important so you can . establish a durable power or attorney and a medical durable power or attorney. In doing so, you're designating someone who can make financial decisions on your behalf should you fall ill (durable power of attorney) and medical ~ecisions on your behalf (medtcal durable power of attorney). . · Get an attorney. D_1fferent states have many dtfferent laws with respect to a decedent's estate. An estate p~an­ ning attorney can professlOnally draft all necessary docu- ments and make sure they conform with your'· state 's laws . Such documents are then less open to challenges upon your death. Oftentimes, improperly drawn up wills are invalid in court. To truly protect your faniily from any added stress upon your death, an estate planning attort:~ey is a worthwhile and not necessarily costly expense. Each and· every day, families fall victim to poor estate planning . To avoid such a fate, begin your estate planning as soon as possible. Tired of retirement: SttJdy fmds retirees returning to·work (MF) - Can't wait to escape the grind of your job and retire? Not everyone feels that way. A new study shows many potential retiree s want to keep working longer. The study finds that about 7 million previously retired Americ~ns - or onethi·rd of all Amencan retirees - have re turned to work for pay after an average sabbatical of one-and-a-half years . The research is based on "The Working Retired ," . - a Putnam Investments-sponsored national survey of 1 ,726 retirees who returned to work.

However, the two are certainly not one in the same, and the belief that they are is just one of the many common misconceptions about estate planning. Estate planning is one of the most important things a persqn can do, lest they risk putting the fruits of their life's labor in jeopard¥. With such important consequences, it's good for anyone involved in estate planning to consider the following. · Understanding probate and what you can do about it. Probate is the legal process wherein a person's will or estate is renewed before title can be transferred from the decedent's name into that of the living beneficiaries. Some people believe a good will can avoid probate and that transfer of assets will occur immediately. In fact, a will often mandates probate, and the process of asset transfer can take anywhere from a few months to several years . For people with property in different states, a probate hearing is often required in each state where property is owned. It's important to note, however, that probate can be avoided. Each case is individual, yet there are ways around timely and ultimately expensive probate . Discussing the different avenues available to avoid Wednesday, July 19, 2007 said they returned to work because they "wanted to," while the remaining one-third went back out of economic necessity. "Our study shows retirement in the United States has already moved far beyond ending work · at age 65, gold watches, and early~bird · s pecials ," said William T. Connolly, head of retail management at Putnam Investments . "For many , retirement is just a planned pause before re suming a career." , " As the study shows, retirement isn't the dream life many thought it would be," noted Connolly. "Many retirees can find retirement to be boring and need a job to keep them men,tally and physically healthy." The study found a large group of these "wanted to" workers re-entered the workforce looking for non-financial rewards. Close to half thought working might make them healthier, more energetic, and keep them in top mental form . A major reason these retirees W!!re able to return to work by choice was because they saved enough money. The survey found that the working retired who had a financial advisor had average assets <,>! $621 ,900, more (MS) - As pe9ple grow older, getting around the house is no longer a given. ArthritiS and other ailments can make moving around a difficult proposition. This puts seniors in the position of making .choices - either risking the danger of falls and injuries 6r making a move to a horne that may be more suitable. Few, however, relish the idea of changing residences in their retirement years. Fortunately, there's another option: modifying the home to be safer and more u.ser-friendly. Seyeral preemptive steps can be taken to make a home equipped and cornf()rtable for living out senior years. ·Lighting. While you may feel as though you know your·home like the back of your hand, you &hould still install some extra lighting throughout your horne as you get older. To avoid falls, make sure staircases are well lit. If not, have overhead lights installed .and make sure all light switch~s are easy to reach. Around a staircase, make sure there's a light switch at the top and bottom of the stairs. Battery-operated lights can do the trick and help you avoid costly electrician costs. · Add a . tel~phone or two. lboogh it's good, especially for seniors; to alw~ys have a cell phOne on hand, it's also a good idea to equip your horne with an extra telephone ill key rooms even in the bathroom, where falls often occur. If you suffer from · arthritis, give your aches and p11,ins a break and have a teleph6n!! installed in a reading room !)r family room if they 're not already there. In addition, install a _ telephone in your bedroom. This will keep you from making long, unnecessary walks, saving your legs for more important things like traveling or playing with the grandkids. Install extra handrails. Staircases and bathrooms are often the scene of the crime with respect to home accidents involving seniors. Slippery floors in bathrooms can be countered by adding a handrail along the wall right outside your shower oc tub.

While a will is expressly concerned with dividing your estate upon your death, estate planning can (and should) provide for you during your lifetime, should you become incapacitated due to old age, illness or an accident. In addition, estate planning is important so you can . establish a durable power or attorney and a medical durable power or attorney. In doing so, you're designating someone who can make financial decisions on your behalf should you fall ill (durable power of attorney) and medical ~ecisions on your behalf (medtcal durable power of attorney). . · Get an attorney. D_1fferent states have many dtfferent laws with respect to a decedent's estate. An estate p~an­ ning attorney can professlOnally draft all necessary docu- ments and make sure they conform with your'· state 's laws . Such documents are then less open to challenges upon your death. Oftentimes, improperly drawn up wills are invalid in court. To truly protect your faniily from any added stress upon your death, an estate planning attort:~ey is a worthwhile and not necessarily costly expense. Each and· every day, families fall victim to poor estate planning . To avoid such a fate, begin your estate planning as soon as possible. Tired of retirement: SttJdy fmds retirees returning to·work (MF) - Can't wait to escape the grind of your job and retire? Not everyone feels that way. A new study shows many potential retiree s want to keep working longer. The study finds that about 7 million previously retired Americ~ns - or onethi·rd of all Amencan retirees - have re turned to work for pay after an average sabbatical of one-and-a-half years . The research is based on "The Working Retired ," . - a Putnam Investments-sponsored national survey of 1 ,726 retirees who returned to work. About two-thirds of the respondents 2007 SUmmer Se.Por Quarterly • Page 21 Make your ~ome senior-friendly Estate planning · more than a will (MS) - For many, estate planning is a fancy way of preparing a will. However, the two are certainly not one in the same, and the belief that they are is just one of the many common misconceptions about estate planning. Estate planning is one of the most important things a persqn can do, lest they risk putting the fruits of their life's labor in jeopard¥. With such important consequences, it's good for anyone involved in estate planning to consider the following. · Understanding probate and what you can do about it. Probate is the legal process wherein a person's will or estate is renewed before title can be transferred from the decedent's name into that of the living beneficiaries. Some people believe a good will can avoid probate and that transfer of assets will occur immediately. In fact, a will often mandates probate, and the process of asset transfer can take anywhere from a few months to several years . For people with property in different states, a probate hearing is often required in each state where property is owned. It's important to note, however, that probate can be avoided. Each case is individual, yet there are ways around timely and ultimately expensive probate . Discussing the different avenues available to avoid Wednesday, July 19, 2007 said they returned to work because they "wanted to," while the remaining one-third went back out of economic necessity. "Our study shows retirement in the United States has already moved far beyond ending work · at age 65, gold watches, and early~bird · s pecials ," said William T. Connolly, head of retail management at Putnam Investments . "For many , retirement is just a planned pause before re suming a career." , " As the study shows, retirement isn't the dream life many thought it would be," noted Connolly. "Many retirees can find retirement to be boring and need a job to keep them men,tally and physically healthy." The study found a large group of these "wanted to" workers re-entered the workforce looking for non-financial rewards. Close to half thought working might make them healthier, more energetic, and keep them in top mental form . A major reason these retirees W!!re able to return to work by choice was because they saved enough money. The survey found that the working retired who had a financial advisor had average assets <,>! $621 ,900, more (MS) - As pe9ple grow older, getting around the house is no longer a given. ArthritiS and other ailments can make moving around a difficult proposition. This puts seniors in the position of making .choices - either risking the danger of falls and injuries 6r making a move to a horne that may be more suitable. Few, however, relish the idea of changing residences in their retirement years. Fortunately, there's another option: modifying the home to be safer and more u.ser-friendly. Seyeral preemptive steps can be taken to make a home equipped and cornf()rtable for living out senior years. ·Lighting. While you may feel as though you know your·home like the back of your hand, you &hould still install some extra lighting throughout your horne as you get older. To avoid falls, make sure staircases are well lit. If not, have overhead lights installed .and make sure all light switch~s are easy to reach. Around a staircase, make sure there's a light switch at the top and bottom of the stairs. Battery-operated lights can do the trick and help you avoid costly electrician costs. · Add a . tel~phone or two. lboogh it's good, especially for seniors; to alw~ys have a cell phOne on hand, it's also a good idea to equip your horne with an extra telephone ill key rooms even in the bathroom, where falls often occur. If you suffer from · arthritis, give your aches and p11,ins a break and have a teleph6n!! installed in a reading room !)r family room if they 're not already there. In addition, install a _ telephone in your bedroom. This will keep you from making long, unnecessary walks, saving your legs for more important things like traveling or playing with the grandkids. Install extra handrails. Staircases and bathrooms are often the scene of the crime with respect to home accidents involving seniors. Slippery floors in bathrooms can be countered by adding a handrail along the wall right outside your shower oc tub. There are steps you can take around the house to ensure your home is functional and safe for senior living. qaf{ia County Councif on J?tging 'lllllbllr.. I U!lftlllllll•llllltllllllll.

Study: Social worker shortage threatens care for millions (MF) - When 69-year-old Eun Joo Choi came to the United States from Korea, she couldn't speak English and cultural differences made it difficult to make friends.

Council wondered if another reason for the water loss may be flushing hydrants which is required by the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency on water lines where there are few homes to maintain .chlorine levels. Mayor April Burke said Water Operator Rob Birchfield is required to flush one hydrant on Bashan Road (Dump Road) every Friday for four hours but she doubts this is accounting for the missing water.

Mayor April Burke said storm sewer covers have been stolen from Larkin, Hill and Union Streets and she guessed around a "dozen" water meter covers have been swiped. "This problem of stealing has been going on for several months out here," Burke said, adding in the last eight months the village has had two 1,000-foot rolls of cop· per wire stolen from the village garage. . Burke_ guessed the village paid betwe~n $700$800 for the rolls stolen in November of 2006 and February of this year. One of the rolls was stolen from the garage in broad daylight according to Burke who said the village uses the copper wire in the sewer grinder pumps. No arrests ·have been made in the copper thefts or the thefts of the storm sewer and water meter covers. It's believed the thieves are selling the metal to scrap yards and in the case of the meter and storm sewer covers, it's possible the thieves are hidmg _them within a larger pile of metal so that the pieces aren't easily identified with ' Please see lbleves, AS I Middleport committee Selecting the best from the rest in 4-H projects discusses projeCted deficits BY HOERJCH CHARLENE BY BRIAN J.
