This deducaon allows you to leave any amount of property to your spouse free of federal estate uxes. The estate burden is therefore postponed until the death of the second spouse. Though that may seem a good choice, in many cases, leaving all of your assets directly to your spouse can ultimately result in even higher taxes on your overall estate, so it is important to review all your options in the planning process.

COLUMBUS (AP) - In the race to fix Ohio \ school-funding problems, Gov. Bob Taft edged out lawmakers last week with his proposal to relax some of tl1< financial requirements that districts face. In a speech to the Ohio School Boards Assnciatilm. Taft announced a plan tO' remove the requirement th ;tt districts maintain a rainy day fimd and to reduce the amount of money they must set aside to buy textboob and do building maintenance. The problem: lawmakers, who worked with the Republican's administration for months to craft the proposal, found themselves left out of the news ami snambling to respond to their own idea. "I was a little surprised because l didn;t know how much he was in the loop, ami! w•s surprised it pretty much detailed our bill," said Senate Education Chairman Bob Gardner, a Republican from Madison. Sen.' Eric Fingerhut, a Cleveland Democrat, complained on the Senate floor that the first word he gut of the proposal was from a reporter. He voted again<t it, saying the bill was moving ton quickly and without enough input from Democrats. The Republican-controlled Senate passed it anyway and sent it to the House for consideration \vhen sessions resume after Thanksgiving. House Speaker Jo An11 Davidson has promised quick action. It's expected to b,· the only legislative action on school-fitnding this year. The bill responds to part of an Ohio Supreme Court ruling in May that said the state's school-fund\ng 'Y'tem remains llll(Onstitutional. In her majority opinion, Justice Alice Robie Resnick targeted requirements that lawmakers haw placed on districts without arrangements for th e money to pay for them. One mandate is that districts annually place 3 percent of their total budget into a reserve fimd for tL'Xtbooks, and another 3 percent intu " huildin~ mainte nancc fund . The bill speeding throu~h the legislature would · reduce that to .1 percent of the money the districts receive from the state. A Taft spokesman said leaving bwmakcrs out of th e ·a nnouncement was a mistake. Please see !1ft.

"It could be a constraint on our ability to address all of the budget challenges that we face," Gov. Bob Tafi said last week. Sales tax revenue on everything but automobiles has fallen below estimates four months running. In October, budget officials estimated the state would bring in $438.3 million in sales tax revenue, but collected only $423.8 million. From July through October, revenue was $80.1 million below estimates. Meanwhile.. a higher-thanexpected Medicaid caseload this year has created a $647 million Medicaid shortfall. -Ohio lawmakers have put legislation to plug this hole on a fast-track. That proposal calls for about $249 million in· state budget cuts and general fund money to match the remaining $400 million coming frrm1 the federal governmen~. To top it off, lawmakers from Senate President Richard Finan on down are pledging to make education their top priority in the 2002-2003 state budget. Funding for schools will come at the expense of other departments. "Education will require the commitment of a substantial portion of expected available r~sourccs, thereby reducing resources available for other purposes," Thomas Johnson, Taft's budget director, told lawmakers last week. Johnson said the state should still end the 2001 fiscal year with S1OS million in surplus revenue and will maintain its $1 billion rainy day lund. Timothy Keen, assistant budget director, said the biggest challenge facing the administr:.i tion .IS the gap between people's expectations and the budget restrictions. "The economy is slowing, but we're sti ll doing fairly well," Keen said. "It's hard to put all these pieces together to identifY this challenge we're going to face.

Ex-stab! justice Brown dies COLUMBUS (AP) - Paul W Drown, a former OhiO,. attorney general and st.ate Supreme Court justice, died in Sarasota, Fla . He was 85. ,Brown won a two-year term on the Ohio Supreme Court in l'l64 following a stint on the 7th Ohio District Court of Appeals. His second term on the high court, this o.ne for six years, was .cut short in 1969 when then-Gov. James A. Rhodes appointed Brown attorney general to replace William B. Saxbe, who was elected to the U.S. Senate. Rhodes, it was believed, was grooming Brown as his successor because term limits prevented Rhodes from running for a third term in 1970. But Brown lost the Republican gubernatorial primary to state Auditor Roger Cloud. Brown returned to the Supreme Court in 1972, where he served until 1981. After retiring from the court, he joined the Columbus law firm ofTbompson, Hine and Flory, pracocing until 1987. Brown was a World War II veteran who was awarded the Silver Star and the Purple Heart. While serving with the First Armored Division in North Africa, Brown was shot and captured. In September 1943, seven months after his capcure, he escaped from a train carrying Allied prisoners from Italy to Germany. He hid in the lqlia~ mountains for the winter: and rejoined the American troops in spring 1944. Brown died Friday. He is survived by his wife, Helen, seven children, 18 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Funeral arrangement> were to be made through Schoedinger Northwest Chapel in Columbus.

The codes, or manuals, arc assigned to about 615 different job descriptions by the · National Council for Compensation Insurers.

The proposal essentially targets an ostimated 23 million people in low-wage families that fall below 200 percent· of the federal poverty level - or about $28,300 for a family of three. Those are people less likely to be offered health coverage on the job and, even when they are, they often can't afford the employee premium match. Under the plan, Medicaid the government's health care program for the poor - would be e-xpan,ded to cover parents and single adults who often are ineligible for coverage. For instance, in two-thirds of the states, a parent ·vho works full time at $5.15 au hour is cons idered ineligible for Medicaid due to high income. And in most states, childless adults are ineligible for Medicaid unless they arc diSabled . "We've got essentiaUy three different classe> of people. J<jds Jre treated the best, parents considerably poorer and childl ess adults get virtually nothing," said Pollack. "This proposal gets rid of categoncs." The pbn also would give ~ates the option of providing coverage J3usinesses J3e Sure & J3e li Part Of 'This 'dear's Special J3asketbal/ Preview tdition! for parents and childless adults through programs like the State Children's Health Insurance Program, whi ch was created in 1997 for ch ildren whose families earn too much to quality for traditional Medicaid. · In a nod to · an idea longbacked by the health insurance industry, the plan proposes a n onrefundable tax . credit aimed at lo\V-income workers who now reject employer-sponsored coverage because they can't afford the employee premium match. A business that now pays 70 percent of the premiums for employees would. receive a tax credit to pay all or part of the remaining premimu for its low-income workers. The groups offered no cost estimate of their proposal, but it's sure to be in the billions of dollars annually. They described· the plan as a framework that they hope will include other stakeholders as legislation is developed. Capitol Hill lawmakers were expected to get the proposal Monday. Leaders of Families USA and the health insurance group outlined the proposal in an article to be published in the JanuaryFebruary issue .of Health Affairs .. The compromise is a drastic cha nge from the bitter battles waged by two of the most visible foes in the health care debate. The Health Insurance Association of America. which has pushed to preserve the current system of employer-based coverage, spent $17 million in 1994 to run the· now-famous "Harry and Louise" ads. The ficti onal couple in those ads warned that Clinton's proposal would turn health care decisions over to government bureacrats, limit the choice of d~ctors and lead to the rationinll' of care. On the other side, Familtes USA strongly supported Clinton's health plan and has lobbied for new patient protections, include the right to sue insurance companies over claim denials. · · "People often say that no one in Washington can agree," said Rick Pollack, executive vice president o[ the American Hospital Association and no relation to the Families USA official.

Ex-stab! justice Brown dies COLUMBUS (AP) - Paul W Drown, a former OhiO,. attorney general and st.ate Supreme Court justice, died in Sarasota, Fla . He was 85. ,Brown won a two-year term on the Ohio Supreme Court in l'l64 following a stint on the 7th Ohio District Court of Appeals. His second term on the high court, this o.ne for six years, was .cut short in 1969 when then-Gov. James A. Rhodes appointed Brown attorney general to replace William B. Saxbe, who was elected to the U.S. Senate. Rhodes, it was believed, was grooming Brown as his successor because term limits prevented Rhodes from running for a third term in 1970. But Brown lost the Republican gubernatorial primary to state Auditor Roger Cloud. Brown returned to the Supreme Court in 1972, where he served until 1981. After retiring from the court, he joined the Columbus law firm ofTbompson, Hine and Flory, pracocing until 1987. Brown was a World War II veteran who was awarded the Silver Star and the Purple Heart. While serving with the First Armored Division in North Africa, Brown was shot and captured. In September 1943, seven months after his capcure, he escaped from a train carrying Allied prisoners from Italy to Germany. He hid in the lqlia~ mountains for the winter: and rejoined the American troops in spring 1944. Brown died Friday. He is survived by his wife, Helen, seven children, 18 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Funeral arrangement> were to be made through Schoedinger Northwest Chapel in Columbus.

Coding error.means employers may be paying wrong premiums DAYTON (AP) - Coding mistakes in Ohio workers compensation claims may be causing employers stat<wide to pay the wrong amount for workers compensation insurance premiUms. The Ohio Bureau of Workers' Compensa~ cion is investigating coding mistake s in daims th3t date back several years. The ~rrors directly affect companies' premiums. but the bureau won't know by how much until it finishes its investigation the first week in December, bureau spokesman Jim Samuel told the Dayton Daily News for a Sunday story.

The proposal essentially targets an ostimated 23 million people in low-wage families that fall below 200 percent· of the federal poverty level - or about $28,300 for a family of three. Those are people less likely to be offered health coverage on the job and, even when they are, they often can't afford the employee premium match. Under the plan, Medicaid the government's health care program for the poor - would be e-xpan,ded to cover parents and single adults who often are ineligible for coverage. For instance, in two-thirds of the states, a parent ·vho works full time at $5.15 au hour is cons idered ineligible for Medicaid due to high income. And in most states, childless adults are ineligible for Medicaid unless they arc diSabled . "We've got essentiaUy three different classe> of people.

A business that now pays 70 percent of the premiums for employees would. receive a tax credit to pay all or part of the remaining premimu for its low-income workers. The groups offered no cost estimate of their proposal, but it's sure to be in the billions of dollars annually. They described· the plan as a framework that they hope will include other stakeholders as legislation is developed. Capitol Hill lawmakers were expected to get the proposal Monday. Leaders of Families USA and the health insurance group outlined the proposal in an article to be published in the JanuaryFebruary issue .of Health Affairs .. The compromise is a drastic cha nge from the bitter battles waged by two of the most visible foes in the health care debate. The Health Insurance Association of America. which has pushed to preserve the current system of employer-based coverage, spent $17 million in 1994 to run the· now-famous "Harry and Louise" ads. The ficti onal couple in those ads warned that Clinton's proposal would turn health care decisions over to government bureacrats, limit the choice of d~ctors and lead to the rationinll' of care. On the other side, Familtes USA strongly supported Clinton's health plan and has lobbied for new patient protections, include the right to sue insurance companies over claim denials. · · "People often say that no one in Washington can agree," said Rick Pollack, executive vice president o[ the American Hospital Association and no relation to the Families USA official.

Julyan Huffman SOCIAL SECURITY Social Security OnlineA focus on the future BY VALREA THOMPSON timizcd by an organized sc heme to mflucnce the presidential election. This sr hcmc, cu nningly co nce1ved and flawl essly exec uted , was used to sway the vote of the undecided or to convince them that voting t(>r George W. was useless. H e re i$ how it worked. All the major networks messed the importance of the vote in Florida, Floriila, Florida. Whoever wins Florida wins the election. Why ? Ohio and West Virginia have more electoral votes than Florida. Very little attention was given to the importance of these two states. Why' They kn ew that Florida was the first state to close their polls. If they could project Gore as the winner in Florida, it would influence the undecided to refrain from voting or to jump on the Gore Bandwagon. Advantage: Gore. They emphas ized the states that Big AI a nd Little Joe were lead in!> in and held back on states they knew were going to George W. Case in point: Georgia, which G.W. won by 13 percent. A few years · ago, the major networks agreed to withho ld proJections until the polls had closed in that particular state. They violated th eir own agreement .. . Kentucky, Indi ana and Florida straddk the lin e between the Eastern Time Zone and the Central Time Zone. People in the panhandle of Florida were standing in line waitillS their turn to vote when the word came out that 13ig AI and Little Joe · had won in Florida. Now the mind game-s bq~in.

The persistence of '\uch uncenainties is no justification for misusing them, as some self-styled and self-serving skeptics do, to dispute more fundamental and established facts: that the earth is warming in a rapid and abnormal way. that purning of coal, oil and natural gas is largely to blame, that the need to reverse this trend is ~ ' ., SOCIETY NEWS AND NOTES Refreshments were served by Neigler and Rainer ro' those named and Circle donates stuffed toys Mabel Brace, Edie Hubbard, Mildred Hart, Ruth Simpson, Lillian Hay- urg~nt.

Don't hesitate to act when·called for. SCO~PIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Instead of smoldering in si lence today about some kind of past offense,. bring the matter out into the open in a dip lomatic manner so it can be resolved once and for all. Major changes are ahead for Scmpio in the coming year. Send for your Astro-Graph predictions by mailing $2 and SASE to AstraGraph, c/o this newspaper, P.O . Box 1758 , Murray Hill Station, New York, NY I 0156. B.e sure to state your Zodiac sign . SAGITIARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec . 21) Friends or associates may not react with the same enthusiasm over something that arouses your interests today . Don ' t get angry with them . They're entitled to their own opinions: CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Even if the conditions with whi ch you may have to contend are more challenging than usual, properly motivated today, 27 Operatic song 21 Sound a horn Pas• ADpasa Virginia Wolff, she of "Who's Afraid" fame, wrote in her diary, "If we didn ' t live venturously, plucking the wild goat by the beard, and trembling over precipices, we should never be ·depressed, I've no doubt; but already should be faded, fatalistic and aged." As you aren't faded or fatalistic (aged is sadly possible) and like the challenge of a contract that leaves you feeling as if you are looking over the precipice, study only the North-South hands in today's diagram. You push into three no-trump, and West leads the club queen. What is your plan? This deal was played by a pair · using four-card majors; hence North's one-spade response rather than two hearts. Then South showed a balanced !8-19 points with two no-trump. Maybe North should have passed. Clearly, all game contracts are against the odds. Four hearts starts with three top losers (two spades and one heart) and has other handling difficulties . Three no-trump is no cashmere overcoat, e ither. It seems to me that th e only chance is to find East with king-doubleton of diamonds ·· so one finesse brings in three trick s th ere·· and either opponent with king-doubleton of hearts . Declarer ducked trick one in an effort at di saster control, won trick two with dummy 's club ace, and fine ssed the diamond queen. Hur· die one passed . Now came the heart ace and another heart. Hur-dle two over. Back in with the club king, declarer cashed his heart winners, then put the diamond ace onto the table. The king tumbled down, and that was nine "easy" tricks : four hearts, three diamonds and t";'O clubs. To get a current weather report, check the Sentinel IMONDAY KENT.

"However, finishing second to Tiger is almost like wmmng.'' Woods' winning score was the lowest four-round total of his career in relation to par and a ,record for the tournament, bearing the 268 of South Africa's Ian Palmer in 1992. But it wasn't Woods' lowest total - he shot a 21-under 259 at the par-70 Firestone Country Club in the NEC Invitational this year.
