Malone officially announced his retirement Sunday, ending his career where it started when the Utah Jazz selected him with the 13t~ pick in the 1985 draft. "Even though I left for a year, I grew here as a Jazz man," Malone said at a · news conference at the Delta · Center. "If I'm fortunate enough to go into the Hall of Fame, l will go as a Jazz man ." The 41-year-old finishes second on the NBA's career scoring li st with 36,928 points , just 1,459 behind Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. Malone met with the San Antonio Spurs last week and was considering a return, hoping for one more chance at a cham pionship ring , but he decided that mentally he couldn' t play at the level that made him one of the best ever in the league. Malone had knee surgery last summer and said he was fully recovered frorn the injury that' forced him to miss half of last season. But his mind wasn't up to returning to basketbalL "When 1 got on that plane, 1 knew I was done. · That it was .time," Malone said. "I look at basketball as 100 percent physically and 100 percent mentally. And if 1 can't bring you 200 percent, from me, I can't brjng you anything. " Malone said he wanted to keep from getting too emotional, and he succeeded - even when recalling Utah's glory days of the 1990s. Sitting on platform with his wife , Kay, Jazz owner Larry Miller and coach Jerry 'Sloan , Malone thanked the Jazz for picking him after. 12 teams had passed. .

There was a ·great deal of jealousy that people had of those guys because of that." Malone also won gold medals with the U.S. Olympic teams of 199 2 and 1996. About th e' only thing missing in hi s career is an title ring , which he missed out on in three trips to the N BA Finals.

Horton ~evie¥!s story · on 1964 s rac1al unrest POMEROY Pauline Horton reviewed "The Secret Life.. of Bee s" by Sue Monk k1.idd at lqst week' s meeting of the Middleport Literary Club. Horton began with a look at the life of Kidd. Although this book was her first novel , she has many published writings, said the reviewer. She first wrote in spirational ess ay s and short stories and . was a co ntributing - editor at Guideposts magazine for many years. He r first two books , "God 's Joyful Surprise" and "When the Heart Waits,'' dealt with contemporary spirituality. During that time she began to speak and lecture around the cou.ntry on spiritual themes and about storytelling . and writing. Next she published her third nonfiction . book "Memoirs of . a Di ss ident Daughter." Finally when she was almost 50, 'she turned to fiction and wrote "The Secret Life of Bees" which was completed in 2000, a book which has won several award here and abroad. The story is · told from the point of view of Lily Owens, a 14-year-old girl living . on a peach farm in South Carolina with ·her harsh unloving father T. Ray, . and Rosaleen , their black hou sekeeper. Lily's mother died when the girl was only four. The time is 1964 in the height of racial unrest in the South.

Bush has appointed a bipartisan tax reform commission that's not due to report until July 31. That gives Democrats an opportunity to put progressive ideas on the table early. And for input, they should study two proposals, one a year old and the o"ther forthcoming, from centrist sources. • The first is the "radical tax reform'' agenda advanced by Maya last year MacGuineas, president of the Co,mmittee for a Responsible Federal Budget and fiscal. policy director at the New America Foundation. The core of her agenda 1s replacement of the regressive payroll tax with a "progressive consumption tax" that wquld encourage savings. The other idea, known as "family-fri endly tax reform," will be unveiled by the this month Progressive Policy Institute, the think tank of the centrist Democratic Leadership CounciL It proposes to co"ns"oiidate a~d enrich tax benefits currently offered for retirement, college, home buying and children. It would pay for · them by closing l 00 corporate tax loopholes costing $400 billion per decade. So far, Bush's major approach to taxes has been to cut them, to the tune of $2 trillion over the current decade and more if these cuts are extended. Aides say that Bush's ideas for tax-deductible health savings accounts, retirtm~ent accounts and education savings accounts, plus lower taxes on investment income, amount to piecemeal tax reform - · a gradual conversion of th.e income tax system to a consumption-tax system. · (740) 992-2156 • FAX (740) 992~2157 www.mydallysentinel.com Ohio Valley Publisbing Co.

H&R BLOCK" 618 East Main St. Pomeroy,OH Everyone takes different approach to tax preparation By Noble Sprayberry , Whether it' s a shoebox cra.mmed 'full of receipts or carefully organized folders ready for an accountant's perusal. ·cvel)'onc approaches tax season · differently. · For some. it's a time of trepidation . Others just file and wait for a refund. Each Year, the forinulae for success shift s.. There are changes to the tax code. The Internal Revenue Service now cmphasitcs electronic tiling ..And. the popularity of software to itemize and file returns is growing. · . A first step to preparing for tax season is simple and critical. Get organized, Said Jackie Perlman, an H&R J31ock tax analyst in Kansas Ci ty. Mo. ''At the very least, get a box 1 folder pr file drawer and say that's where you're going to put all of your tax stuff," Perlman said. .Too often people file one tax form in one spot and put a separate document elsewhere. ''When it comes time to get everylhing together, you have a heck of a time," she said. Next, decide between the do-it-yourself route or a profess ional. Perlman said. "If you \\.•ant to do it yourself, that's great, but rhc earlier the better." Perlman said. "Ir you're going into unfamitiar territory, and if you have a tax question or need to call technical support fot a software problem, you don't want to be doing th'ul un April 15 al II o·clod.;:.·· ·For people with complex returns or those unwilling to tackle the chore themselves, a.few simple guidelines can lead to .a good ~H.:countant, Perlman . ~. 740-992-6674 . 1" I I'\ l S • \ lll. ;~ .

Interview the accountant about their experience. A:;;k the type!\ of returns they typically do. "If you're self employed, for example, ask hoW many similar clients they have," Perlman suid. "If you're the only one. yoU mi g h~ wan1 10 find someone else." Make sure the accounr.ant will stand behind the accuracy of a return, signing their name as the prcparcr, Perlman said. ~ e choosy. After all, a tax preparer must know many intimate details of a c!ient's life. "h 's a very personal thing," Perlman said ...You want someone you' re comfortab le with and that's easy to talk with.'' Another step in preparing a plan is a review of the changes in tax codes, and a stop hy the IRS Weh site at www.irs.gov can answer many questions. IRS spokeswoman Nancy Mathis said. · Changes for ·2005 include an increase in the income caps for the Simple 1040EZ form, one~ an oplion limited to individuals cam.ing no more 1han $50,000. The cap is now $ t 00,000, Mathi s said. · Also, taxpayers can now dedu ct s ~ate and local sales taxes from federal · ta~cs. This was changed for states suc h as Texas or Florida that lack st;,ttc in(orne taxes. which are deductible from federal returns. . In states with both an income taX and state sales tax, taxpayers may select the deduction that gives them the grea1t:st advantage. Mathis said.
