What you don't know could have a negative impact not only on your Social Security, but also on your overall financial future.

" telebrcitlng·,pedtll .dtlfS'· t/lifll you! · Sunday 1imes~Sentinel 740-992-2155 1. Thinking that Social Security can do it all. Social Security never was intended to be your only source of retirement income. Along with private pensions and savings, it was meant to be part of a "three-leg$ed stool" that suppons your fmancial future. Most financial planners tell people to figure out how much money they'll need in retirement usually 70 to 80 percent of !heir pre-retirement inoomes. But, for average wage earners, Social Security will replace only about 40 percent of what they make before they retire. Social Security has a Benefits Planner on our website that pn:>vides valuable infonnation about planning for retirement And ~ online calculators allow yoU to compute benefit estimates and figure what you need to save to live comfortably in retirement Just go to www.socialsecurity.gov and click on "Plan Your Retirement" 2. Thinking there's no harm in giving your Social Security number to others. With ever-increasing reports of identity theft, more and more people understand the potential problems that can come about from letting the wrong person get hold of your Social Security Number. Most of the time, giving businesses or organizations your Social Security Number seems harmless enough. But do you know what they will do with it1 Or to whom they will pass it along' Next time you're asked for your Social Security Number; ask them why they need it, what they plan to do with it, what happens if you refuse and what law requires you to give your number. If you're not satisfied with the answers, you can choose to not give it to them. But, keep in mind that if you refuse, the business or organization may refuse to give you the goods or services you are seeking. It's also a good idea to keep your Social Security card in a safe place. You shouldn't carry it with you in your wallet or purse. 3. Thinking 'your Social Security taxes are building up a personal retirement account. Because they have a Social Security Number and they pay Social Security taxes, some poople think there's a special account that has all the money they've paid into Social Security, plus interest That just isn't so. Social Security is basically a pay-as-you-go system. The benefit~ people get today are being paid from the taxes of today's workers. Any taxes·in excess of those needed to pay benefits go into the Social Security trust funds, which are invested in U.S. government securities. Social Security is .based on a simple concept. You earn Social Security credits when you work in a job in which you pay Social Security taxes. The credits are based on your earnings. We use these credits to determine your. eligibility for benefits. Social Security uses Social Security Numbers to keep earnings records for all workers, because the amounts of benefits are based on those earnings. 4. Thinking you can ignore your Social Security statement. If you're age 25 or older and ~ou work. you should be rece1ving a Social Security Statement in the mail each year about · three months before your birthday. One of the biggest mistakes you could make is to ignore it. The Stltement has a lot of useful infonnation. If you don't already have a plan for wbere yOirr money will be coming from after you stop working, Social Security should be the first place you look. The Statement shows how you paid into Social Security through the years and what you.can expect to get back a1 various retirement ~es. It also shows how much you11 get if you become disabled and can't wOlk for a year or more. And it shows what your family will be eligible for if you die before retirement When you receive your Statement, carefully check the earnings that we show for you . Your future benefits wi ll be based on the earnings listed in the Statement. So if your record is not complete , please let us know right away so we can help you correct 11. We recommend that you keep a copy of the Statement with your financial records. If you decide not to keep your Statement, please make sure much 5. Thinking a paper check Is the only way to receive your Social Security. If you're looking for the safest, most convenient way to get your benefit payments. direct deposit is the answer. Your money goes directly int~ your bank account, and 1t s there on your check payment date. There's no staymg at home waiting for the mail . There's no worrying about your e'beck, being . lost or stolen . There s no gomg out m bad weather or standing in long lines to deposi.t a paper ' check . Your money IS m your account, even if you can't get to the bank. When it comes to Social Security payments. direct deposit is the way to go. Our main concern in all stories is to be accurate.

Star' Tribune, Minneapolis, 011 recent Medicare legislation,· The $400 billion Medicare bi ll that lawmakers approved last / week is the biggest piece of domestic legislation to emerge from Congress in years and. between now and next November's election , will provoke endless debate over whether Republicans have finally modernized government health care or have sabotaged a venerable Great Society program that serves 37 million elderly Americans. Actually it's hurd to know where the lluth lies. 1l1e bill got Monday, December 8 , 2003 Group think on both sides of the Atlantic There was something in the New York Times story ·Actors in All- Latino Cast Savor a 'Historic Moment" that reminded me of the BBC story 'Gloucester Muslims ., tell (Bri1ish Home Secretary) Blunkell to resign' - but what? That is, how could it be that a story written to celebrate, politically antl correctly, the Hispanic- ne ss of a Broadway cast have anything to do with a heated gathering of British Muslims at a Gloucester community center' What cou ld acting in ' Anna in the Tropics,' a Pulitzer Prize-winning play, have to do with debating the arrest of a local bloke suspected of AI Qaeda links' The stories are without parallels. Or are they? Both stories are deeply marked by their subjects' ethno-vision, the tightly blinkered perspective that makes for rigid gro upthink and cumbersome apologetics. On Broadway, it allows actors. who are as lucky as they are deserving, to rise to the· peak of their careers and see only a view dominated by the bogeymen of identity politics. Actress and dancer Priscilla Lopez, 55, for example, is typical. She's found great professional success as an actress and dancer in a range of roles from 'A Chorus Line,' in which she played Diana Morales, to 'A Day in Hollywood/A Night in the Ukraine,' for which Diana West she won a Tony Award playing Harpo Marx , and more recently. in the movie 'Maid in Manhattan,' in which she played pop queen Jennifer Lopez's mother. Yet Lopez finds point and purpose in worrying abo ut being typecast as a Hispanic, and, then again, not being typecast as a Hispanic. Sometimes, the artie le reported, she even 'felt gui lty for working while so many Latinos did not.' Talk about being damned if you do and dam'ned if you don't (and also damned if no one else does). It is such a mindset, a continuous loop that circles but never reaches reality, th at will probably link the expected early close of ' Anna in the Tropics· not to a faltering play that drew mixed reviews, but rather to the conviction that'Broadway just wasn't ready for a 'Hispanic ' play. In the selfdeluding perpetuation of group mythology. the destiny of the individual , or the individual play, is lost. In the Muslim enclave of Gloucester. the c.ontext may be entirely different, but the school of group-thought is allowing neighbors to learn the same. Last week.

The opinions expressed in the column below :are the consensus of the Ohio Valley Publishing Co. s editorial board, unless otherwise noted. • If the Bush administration can't get anything else right, it definitely knows how to stage a photo op. · George W. Bush's Surprise Thanksgiving Day visit to the troops at Baghdad airport was as cleverly wntrived a piece of political theater as White Hou se imagineers have dreamed up since his ' Mission Accomplished ' aircrafi carrier landing back in May. But let's hold that thought for a moment. Fm me, the president's well choreographed stunt served as a quick Rorschach test. Was I or was I not a Bush hater'! See, for months now, rightthinking pundits who respond to the Republican National Committee's party line have been wringing their hands over a supposed epidemic of unreasoning hatred sliown Bush by his detractors. Ironically, one of the first to advancc the theme was Byron York. a columnist who got his start writing ·for the Ame~ican Spectator, hpme of the infamous Arkansas Project, a $ 2.4 million project to defame thenPresident Bill Clinton funded by Richard Mellon Scaife, the Scrooge McDuck o'f the American right. To my knowledge, York played no role in the scheme, but the idea of any Spectator alum playing Miss Manners is pretty funny. 'Remember 'The Clinton Chronicles,' the 1994 video that attempted to implicate Bill 'Remember the 'Clinton Body Count' lists? Remember the stories of the president's connections to drug running?' Sure do. In fact, I remell)· ber American Spectator articles devoted to the preposterous idea that Clinton ran a cocaine-smuggling nng through a rural airport in Mena. I also recall Arkansas Project operatives making clumsy efforts to investigate the private lives of journalists deemed 'Clinton apologists.' I don't recall York or many 'mainstream' pundits getting too upset about it, either. But I digress. York showed that if you scour the Internet, it's possible ·to locate sites such as bushbodycount.com . or presidentmoron.com devoted to denouncing Bush as everything up to and including a Nazi. But hey, no kidding. One of the ironies of contemporary life is the huge boost given irrationality by the Internet, sateilite technology, · etc. Pornography aside, nothing travels faster through cyberspace than quackery. There are multiple sites for every superstition: religious cults, alien visita~ons, anti-Semitism, ereationis111 and conspiracy theQries of ev~ty conceivable vanely. That York could Google up Bush haters was no surprise. More remarkable was the number of mainstream pundits who took the bait. It was.n't shocking to see The Washington Post's George Will, who once called Clinton a rapist on the thinnest possible evidence, join the chorus. Nor to observe Charles Krauthammer, once a practicing psychiatrist, allege that 'Democrats are seized with a loathing for President Bush. ... that is near pathological.' Their game is to label all criticism of our court-appointed leader crazy. When New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristoff joined the chorus, however, Bob Somerby of dailyhowler.com brought him up short. Conceding that it's ' utterly hypocritical' for conservatives who savaged Clinton ' to complain about liberal incivility,' Kri stoff had nevertheless detected a disturbing level of anger in reader e-mails. ·Liberals,' he lamented, 'have now become as intemperate as conservatives.' Somerby reminded Kristoff of a few home truths : 'It wasn't everyday people. writing ·e-mails, who pushed those murder lists against Clinton. It was welt-known public figures who peddled those lists, and they were invited to do so on national TV. Similarly, it wasn't a random bunch of e-ma:ilers who kept trying to prove that Clinton killed (Vince) Foster. It was major Republicans .... who engaged in this endless political porn. As they·did so, 'good guy' pundits hid beneath desks, too scared 'to condemn their behavior. 'Are today's liberals as bad '• as those cons? Unless you simply enjoy propaganda, the answer quite plainly is 'no.' Have you seen Bush murder lists on TV? Have you seen a major 'religious figure' selling tapes which call Bush a serial killer? ... In short, have you seen anything like the wave of insanity that typified the Clinton-Gore years?' Anyway, back to Bush's Thanksgiving Day appearance. What were my feelings? Immediately, exactly the kind of sentimental patriotic wanmth the stunt was designed to evoke. As all my Austin friends say, Bush is hard to dislike on a purely personal level. That feeling was quickly followed by irritation at the fawning of the TV talking FOR, heads. - Lincoln, Churchill? Give me a break. Bush's latenight airport visit took considerable ,effort, but no particular courage - no more, at any rate, than did Hillary Clinton's daylight visit the following morning. After that, chagrin that a retinue of hand-picked journalists would agree.to secret participation in a transparently political stunt. Finally, realization that should events continue to spiral out Of control in Iraq, all the warm fuzzies in the world won't save Bush from the consequences of his illconceived policies.

Rio Meigs enrollment i growing, diversifying 1 BY BRIAN J. REED breed@ mydailysent1nel.com POMEROY -Enrollment at the University of Rio GrandefRio Grande Community College Meigs Center is at a record high. and the student body has grown more diverse. according to the center's director. Gina Pines. . With the atltlition of a degree program in early childhood education in August, the ce nter, which has only two classrooms. has become much busier and too crowded, Pines said. The center has enrolled 78 students in classes for the fall quarter, and more are expected to join the center's stude nt ranks for the winter term . ·'We have more classes and more people than we hav e room.'' Pines said Friday. "We may have to begin offering cla sses in the daytime and Friday classes, or do some creative juggl ing UIHil we have a bigger facility." Pines referred to Rio Grande's plans to expand into a new facility to be buill by the Meigs Cou nty Community Improvement Corporation, which continue. "Rio Grande President Barry Dorsey has emphasized that the Community College hoard and the University's board remain wholly committed to the expansion project," Pines said. The CIC has offered to build a new building to. the university's specificati ons. and lease it to the school at cost. The CIC and Rio Grande continue to negotiate the terms of the agreement and to look at locations both in Middleport and elsew here in the county. In addition to growi ng in number. the student population at the center is growi ng in diversity. according to Pines. While the ce nter had traditionall y been attended by mostly non-traditional students, including a disproportionate number of single. working women , it is now attended by a growing number of men and women of traditional college age. and even high school students. The stude nt body at the Meigs Center remains overwhelmingly female - 83 percent -'- but that's changing. Pines said. Pines said there are also a growing number of students from outside the Pomeroy and Middleport area. and even outside the county who attend the center because of months and these things don ' t come cheap." On the «age where many Christmas pageants had taken place y;hen the school was open. there was a long pile of winter coats. One older woman , middle aged with deep worry lines on her face approached the stage. She sifted through the coats before coming up on some. thing that made her smile.

Gree nfield too k contro l ea rly with a 9-0 run to start the gwne and depended on the scoring of Dante Jackson and Matt Binegar. The Ead es managed just seven po~1ts through the. ent ire first quart er as Nathan Grubb con nected from bevund the arc. while Chri s Carroll and Robert Cross each added layups. The Eag les ( 1- 1) were hurt by 12 · turnovers and were fla gged for munerous fo uls..

In the second 4uarter. Green fi eld' s Jackson took control of the game, outscoring the entire Eastern team 12-9 and helping Greenfield to a 19 point half time lead.

Then Donnie .Johnson sank a pair of free throws wi th nine seconds left in the extra session to give th e Blue Devils a 59-58 nonleag ue vi ctory at Meigs on Saturday. "There's no better guy to have o.n the foul line th an Donnie," commented a re lieved GAHS coach Jim Osborne. " You want him there when it counts." The win was the first on the season for Gallia Academy after dropping it s season opener to Chesapeake on Friday. Conversely, it was the first setback for Meigs. The Marauders also opened the season the previous ni gh t. but earned a win over rival River Valley. Osborne 's Devils fel l behind by as many as 14 in the third quarter, but methodi cally chipped away at the Meigs lead during the final eight minutes. A 10-foot jumper in the paint by Johnso n pulled GAHS to within two of the lead with I :07 remaining in the game. It was the closest the Dev il s had been since late in the opening stanza. After Meigs ' Jon Bobb split a pair of free throws. Hagge rt y nailed hi s long distance attempt from the top of the key to knot the contest at 50 apiece. Hagge ny, a fres hman , finished with 12 points on the ni ght and later came up with a second bi g play in overtime. "Jayme Haggert y, thought he had tremendous poise coming otT the bench as a fres hman and playing," commented Osborne. Meigs was leading 58-57 with under a minule remaining in overt ime, and had possession of the basketball. The Marauders wer~ run ning duck, but a deflected pass popped strai gh t up into the air. Haggerty leaped above the crowd of pl ayers and tipped the ball to Johnson , who was eventually fouled , sett ing up his ga me-winning charity tosses. "That play where (Haggerty ) was abl e to jlllnp up ·and tip' it to Donnie, tha t was a tremendous at hlet ic play." Osborne said . " He plays with no fear as a fres hman. that's just unbelievable." While free throw sl10oting was an asset to GAHS , it ultimately cost Meigs the game. The Marauders thoroughly co ntrolled the co ntest through three quarters of play and looked like they had a second victory all sewn up. But horrible shooting from the charity stripe proved otherwi se. " It's a tough Joss when you lead for 32 minutes. And especiall y tough when you mi ss t11 e ea sy ones, whi ch we did," said a disappointed Mei gs coach Carl Wolfe.

"One time there, we missed eight out of nine free throws and only scored one field goal in that last quarter," Wolfe explained. "They were fouling to get the ball back; it worked for them and it was a disaster for us. "If we make the free throws, we pull away and probably still win by that double figure margin - but that's why you play four quarters." Despite the disappointing ending, there were many positives for Meigs.

Meigs allowed no field goals and held its opponents to just two free throws over that eight minute span. "The defense did as good a job the first half as you could pos sibly ask for," Wolfe commented. ~ "I thought our defense was superb, our board play was superb, our shot selection was great - we did just about everything right for three quarters."
