Kerr Lake Academy Opened Its Doors To 343 Students<br />

On August 26th,<br />

Granville County’s first<br />

graded charter school<br />

opened its doors to 343<br />

students from Granville<br />

and surrounding<br />

counties. Anticipation<br />

was in the air, and the<br />

buzz of excited students<br />

and parents was thick<br />

and heavy as more than<br />

twenty parent volunteers<br />

took their places<br />

alongside the 30 full-time<br />

and three part-time staff<br />

members to meet and<br />

greet the new Firebird<br />

family members as they<br />

poured in from where<br />

East Lyon Station Road<br />

and Green Road come<br />

together.<br />

<strong>This</strong> event was long in<br />

coming. Board of<br />

Directors members Andy<br />

Peterson, Tracy Teal,<br />

Larry Vaught, Tim<br />

Slaughter, Bridget<br />

Tanner, and Mandy<br />

Johnson worked toward<br />

this moment for nearly<br />

three years. They spent<br />

countless hundreds of<br />

man-hours in planning,<br />

o r g a n i z i n g ,<br />

communicating, and<br />

wading through endless<br />

mountains of paperwork<br />

to get the school designed,<br />

organized, approved, and<br />

opened. Board member<br />

Katrina Cooke joined the<br />

campaign later, but she<br />

has logged more than a<br />

hundred hours herself<br />

since coming on board in<br />

July.<br />

“<strong>This</strong> is so worth it,”<br />

Cooke said as she stood<br />

with the rest of the Board<br />

members on Opening<br />

Day. “I love seeing the<br />

kids smile and wave as<br />

they come in.”<br />

Opening Day was a<br />

joint effort, involving<br />

teachers, parents,<br />

students, Board<br />

members, and even<br />

unconnected volunteers<br />

Mayor Nancy Alford, Stem Town Commissioners and members of the Stem Planning Board<br />

held a Ribbon Cutting at Dollar General on <strong>Saturday</strong>, September 14. Mayor Alford said,<br />

“Dollar General expected to be open for business Monday, September 16.” Shown are<br />

Kevin Easter, Lynn Carden, Lonnie Cole, Sr., Kenneth McLamb, Mayor Nancy Alford, Renee<br />

Green, Marshall Blalock, Nancy Compton and John Moxley.<br />

who were just excited<br />

about the school and<br />

wanted to help.<br />

One of the biggest<br />

events prior to opening<br />

was the Friday morning<br />

when Board members<br />

sent out a call on<br />

Facebook and the school’s<br />

website begging for<br />

volunteers to come and<br />

help unload, clean, and<br />

“load-in” more than a<br />

tractor-trailer load of<br />

used furniture procured<br />

from another charter<br />

school who got all new<br />

stuff. They expected a<br />

dozen, maybe. They were<br />

taken by surprise on<br />

moving day when several<br />

hundred parents and<br />

students showed up, so<br />

many that the whole<br />

process was done by early<br />

afternoon. The<br />

atmosphere was happy<br />

and joyful as parents and<br />

kids joined together,<br />

working towards getting<br />

this new school together.<br />

Speaking of the<br />

Board, “<strong>This</strong> is the<br />

hardest-working bunch of<br />

parents I’ve ever seen,”<br />

said Principal Eddy<br />

Daniel, who was lured out<br />

of retirement by the<br />

Board to design and start<br />

the school from scratch.<br />

He spent six months<br />

setting up the school’s<br />

operations, hiring the<br />

staff, and preparing for<br />

school to start. Now that<br />

the big day was here, he<br />

Gerard “Jerry” Seibert was named the first zoning<br />

administrator for the Town of Stem at their regular board<br />

meeting held Monday night, September 16. The effective<br />

starting date for the position will be October 1, 2013.

stood watching with<br />

satisfaction as the<br />

students came in, most of<br />

them accompanied by<br />

their parents. A number<br />

of the parents greeted him<br />

personally, remembering<br />

him from their own high<br />

school days as South<br />

Granville High School’s<br />

band director from 1979<br />

until 1990.<br />

“I couldn’t resist,” said<br />

Daniel, “When southern<br />

Granville County called,<br />

I came a-runnin’. I<br />

couldn’t say no; the<br />

eleven years I spent here<br />

were some of the best,<br />

highest points of my<br />

career. I’m just glad I<br />

could come back and help<br />

all this come together.”<br />

It almost didn’t come<br />

together on time. The<br />

school is housed in a<br />

modular campus made<br />

up of one ten-classroom<br />

modular building, seven<br />

individual classroom<br />

trailers, and one small<br />

office trailer, all<br />

connected by aluminum<br />

decking. For this first<br />

year, Falls Lake Academy<br />

will hold all its classes,<br />

events, and activities in<br />

this tiny space while<br />

waiting for their<br />

permanent structure to<br />

be built right behind the<br />

current modular campus<br />

location.<br />

Next summer, the<br />

staff and parents will<br />

move everything again,<br />

from the current modular<br />

buildings to the<br />

permanent structure, a<br />

modern state-of-the-art<br />

facility designed to<br />

support the innovative<br />

and creative ways that<br />

Falls Lake Academy<br />

teaches its kids to learn<br />

and thrive. Once the<br />

modular campus is gone,<br />

the place where it now<br />

sits will become the<br />

school’s new softball field.<br />

In the meantime, the<br />

county inspections were<br />

held up during the two<br />

weeks leading up to<br />

Opening Day, forcing the<br />

school to hold its<br />

Enrollment Intake<br />

session at a nearby<br />

church at the last minute.<br />

The Board and staff<br />

waited anxiously right up<br />

to the last Friday before<br />

school opened on Monday<br />

for the Certificate of<br />

Occupancy. When it<br />

finally arrived on Friday<br />

afternoon August 23rd,<br />

literally hundreds of staff<br />

members, Board<br />

members, and parents<br />

once again pulled<br />

together to get the school<br />

ready to open the<br />

following Monday.<br />

“By the time Monday<br />

morning rolled around,”<br />

said Daniel, “I was<br />

exhausted. I’m sure the<br />

staff was, too. But you<br />

know what? You couldn’t<br />

tell by looking at them.<br />

I’ve never seen a happier,<br />

more excited group of<br />

teachers, even though<br />

many of them, like me,<br />

were dead on their feet<br />

when they charged into<br />

the first day of teaching.<br />

It was truly amazing.”<br />

Falls Lake Academy is<br />

a Project-Based Learning<br />

school. Students in every<br />

grade level are being<br />

taught how to organize<br />

and take charge of their<br />

own learning, working in<br />

groups and individually,<br />

doing research and<br />

practicing the isolation<br />

and solving of complex<br />

problems. Along the way,<br />

they identify examples of<br />

their own best work and<br />

save them in Showcase<br />

Portfolios, which they will<br />

present to their parents<br />

and other adult audiences<br />

at or about the same time<br />

they present their PBL<br />

projects.<br />

The whole system is<br />

very student-centered<br />

and results-oriented.<br />

“<strong>This</strong> is different from the<br />

The Butner-<strong>Creedmoor</strong> News, Thursday, September 19, 2013 5a<br />

way kids generally do<br />

school,” Daniel said.<br />

“We’re committed to<br />

bringing the absolute best<br />

teaching and learning<br />

practices, backed up by<br />

research proving their<br />

success, to every<br />

classroom. We’re aiming<br />

at the very best for every<br />

kid, nothing less. We take<br />

no prisoners around<br />

here.”<br />

“I just love this,”<br />

Katrina Cooke said when<br />

asked what it was like to<br />

join the effort so close to<br />

Opening Day. “I love<br />

being on the Board. I love<br />

working with these<br />

people, and I love walking<br />

down the hall and<br />

watching a bunch of<br />

teachers, every one of<br />

whom are excited to come<br />

to work, teaching with<br />

such high levels of<br />

enthusiasm.”<br />

She’s not alone. So far,<br />

the students and parents<br />

all seem to agree that this<br />

experiment in charter<br />

school education is a<br />

resounding success.<br />

The students and faculty gathered around the modular units at Falls Lake Academy on the<br />

first day of school.<br />

American Hero held their 13th Anniversary celebration on September 7th. Moimen, George,<br />

Adam and Fibi thank all of their customers for their support over the years and look<br />

forward to meeting and serving new customers in the upcoming years.<br />

Special Events Day At NC State Fair<br />

<strong>This</strong> year, the N.C.<br />

State Fair will offer a<br />

number of special-event<br />

days geared toward the<br />

military, senior citizens<br />

and kids.<br />

Visitors participating<br />

in the Food Lion Hunger<br />

Relief Day will need to<br />

bring five cans of food<br />

instead of four in order<br />

to receive their free<br />

admission ticket. <strong>This</strong><br />

change marks the first<br />

increase in the number of<br />

cans required since the<br />

program began. Special<br />

days include:<br />

• The fair will open on<br />

Thursday, Oct. 17, at 3<br />

p.m. for Preview Day.<br />

Fairgoers can purchase<br />

unlimited-ride<br />

wristbands for $28, which<br />

are good from 3:30 until<br />

midnight on Preview Day<br />

only. Attendees will also<br />

receive discounted<br />

admission tickets at the<br />

gate for $7 for adults and<br />

$3 for children ages 6-12.<br />

Wristbands cannot be<br />

purchased in advance,<br />

but will be available at<br />

ticket booths on the<br />

fairgrounds. Youth and<br />

school groups can enjoy<br />

special educational<br />

opportunities on Monday,<br />

October 21, during Youth<br />

Celebration Day. Groups<br />

of 40 or more are eligible<br />

for special admission<br />

packages, available for<br />

online purchase in<br />

advance before Oct. 17.<br />

With fewer crowds,<br />

groups will have an easier<br />

time taking advantage of<br />

educational materials for<br />

the fair, available at<br />

www.ncstatefair.org/<br />

2013/General/<br />

Educational.htm.<br />

• Although senior<br />

citizens receive free<br />

admission every day of<br />

the fair, there will be<br />

special events for them on<br />

Senior Citizens Day,<br />

Tuesday, Oct. 22. Seniors<br />

will enjoy a free breakfast<br />

and entertainment in<br />

Dorton Arena from 9 to 11<br />

a.m. Parking will be<br />

available in Carter-Finley<br />

Stadium at Gate A, and<br />

trams will transport<br />

attendees from their cars<br />

to Dorton. There is no<br />

special ticket needed for<br />

Senior Citizens Day<br />

events.<br />

• On Wednesday, Oct.<br />

23, the N.C. State Fair<br />

will honor U.S. service<br />

personnel during<br />

Military Appreciation<br />

Day. Although military<br />

adults receive a<br />

discounted admission<br />

price of $5 every day at<br />

the fair, Military<br />

Appreciation Day will<br />

feature special<br />

performances by the<br />

440th Army Band. The<br />

band is part of the<br />

National Guard and will<br />

perform at 1,3 and 5 p.m.<br />

on the Waterfall Stage,<br />

sponsored by Kitchen<br />

Craft.<br />

• The Food Lion<br />

Hunger Relief Day on<br />

Thursday, Oct. 24, will<br />

benefit the Food Bank of<br />

Central and Eastern<br />

North Carolina, which<br />

serves 34 counties<br />

surrounding Raleigh.<br />

<strong>This</strong> years change<br />

requiring five cans<br />

instead of four in<br />

exchange for a free<br />

admission ticket will<br />

make a noticeable<br />

difference to hungry<br />

people in the area.<br />

The need for more<br />

canned goods at the Food<br />

Bank has prompted us to<br />

increase the number of<br />

cans needed to get in free<br />

to five cans, said Fair<br />

Manager Wesley Wyatt.<br />

An extra can from each<br />

fairgoer will mean<br />

thousands of meals<br />

provided to needy<br />

families throughout<br />

North Carolina.<br />

Since the hunger<br />

relief day began 18 years<br />

New Arrival<br />

ago, more than 2 million<br />

pounds of food have been<br />

donated by fairgoers.<br />

The N.C. State Fair<br />

will run October 17-27 at<br />

the State Fairgrounds.<br />

Discount admission and<br />

The reduction of waste is the first step in taking care of our environment.<br />

There are many ways to reduce waste:<br />

• Print on both sides of paper whenever possible.<br />

• Use reusable plates, coffee mugs, and cloth napkins.<br />

• Shop Smart: Buy only amounts that you need, buy in bulk to reduce packaging waste.<br />

• When shopping, take a reusable shopping bag to carry small purchases, instead of getting a bag in ev ery store.<br />

• Eliminate junk mail.<br />

• Reduce the use of Household Hazardous Wastes, which include cleaning chemicals, pesticides, herbici des, etc.

What is a Pawn?<br />

A pawn is a cash loan. It’s simple:<br />

Bring us any item of value. We loan you cash.<br />

Pay us back plus a small fee. Pick up your goods.<br />

We will also buy your items outright if you no longer want or need them. However, if<br />

you want the option of keeping your items, then a pawn is the answer. Our pawn shops<br />

are simply the best source for fast cash loans. We pay more than the competition, and<br />

we treat you with respect and care.<br />

Still have questions? Then find out more about pawn terms, what we take, privacy<br />

concerns, or anything else on our Frequently Asked Questions page.<br />

Friends, Family<br />

& Neighbors<br />

Sign Up For Girl Scouts<br />

Granville County Girl Scouts is gearing up for<br />

another year!<br />

In Girl Scouts, girls discover the fun, friendship, and<br />

power of girls together. Through a myriad of enriching<br />

experiences, such as extraordinary field trips, sports<br />

skill-building clinics, community service projects,<br />

cultural exchanges, and environmental steward-ships,<br />

girls grow courageous and strong.<br />

Girl Scouting helps girls develop their full individual<br />

potential; relate to others with increasing understanding,<br />

skill, and respect; develop values to guide their<br />

actions and provide the foundation for sound decisionmaking;<br />

and contribute to the improvement of society<br />

through their abilities, leadership skills, and cooperation<br />

with others.<br />

If you have a girl ages Kindergarten through 12th<br />

grade who is interested in being a part of a Girl Scout<br />

Troop, contact Rhonda Schwarze at rjl21570@ nc.rr.com,<br />

or 919-218-3128.<br />

They are also looking for adult troop leaders<br />

interested in guiding girls through their year of selfdiscovery.<br />

Find out how Girl Scouting builds girls of courage,<br />

confidence, and character, who make the world a better<br />

place.<br />

Girl Scout Troop 311<br />

to Fundraise for Memorial at<br />

Lake Rogers Park<br />

Girl Scout Troop 311 is working hard to achieve their<br />

Bronze and Silver Awards (the second and third highest<br />

honors in the Girl Scouting community). In order to earn<br />

each of these awards, the Troop must find new ways to<br />

give back to their community. Knowing they wanted to<br />

do something in honor of service men and women, the<br />

girls decided on a brick memorial at Lake Rogers Park.<br />

The memorial will consist of a flagpole in the middle<br />

of a 6’ x 6’ brick foundation, with each brick “In Honor<br />

Of” or “In Memory Of” service men and women. The bricks<br />

will be sold for $50.00 each, which will not only pay for<br />

the name of the service man or woman to be placed on<br />

the brick, but also an emblem featuring the branch of<br />

the military, fire department, or police department in<br />

which they served, or if they were a POW or are MIA.<br />

The Troop will be fundraising and raising awareness<br />

for this project this <strong>Saturday</strong>, September 21st, at the<br />

<strong>Creedmoor</strong> <strong>Music</strong> <strong>Festival</strong>. After the <strong>Music</strong> <strong>Festival</strong>,<br />

bricks will be available to purchase through a website<br />

that will be linked on the City’s website at www.cityof<br />

creedmoor.org. For more information, please call Rhonda<br />

Hens & Chicks Sewing<br />

School To Hold Open House<br />

Carol Montague believes children should have an<br />

opportunity to learn a skill that “has been dismissed as<br />

non-essential in today’s fast-paced society.”<br />

As a result, she teaches sewing of clothes and crafts<br />

at Hen & Chicks Sewing School in her Oxford home,<br />

located off Tar River Road.<br />

An open house and registration for the coming school<br />

year will be held <strong>Saturday</strong>, September 28th from 10 to<br />

12 a.m. at her home. Children, ages 8 and above, are<br />

welcome to register although the school is open to adults<br />

as well. You will be able to view curriculum, samples<br />

and meet the instructor.<br />

Classes will run the first week of October and finish<br />

the end of May and meet either Tuesdays or Thursdays,<br />

4:15 p.m. to 5:45 p.m. each week. Cost is $60 per month<br />

with a once-a-year $50 registration fee which includes<br />

instruction book. Parents supply materials and notions.<br />

The school supplies sewing machines, tools, and<br />

personalized instruction.<br />

Some activities Montague has in mind during the<br />

sewing year might include an end of the year fashion<br />

show, donations of student handmade items to local<br />

charities, and a field trip.<br />

Montague has taught sewing for the last 10 years in<br />

her Washington State home. She hosted several sewing<br />

camps here this past June. She began sewing at the age<br />

of 12 on her grandmother’s treadle sewing machine.<br />

For more information about the open house, classes,<br />

and how to register, call Mrs. Montague at 919-603-1921<br />

or 360-254-6152.<br />

SOAP OPERA REVIEW<br />

BOLD AND<br />

BEAUTIFUL<br />

As soon as Liam got<br />

news from overseas that<br />

his marriage to Steffy is<br />

truly over, he made plans<br />

for his and Hope's future<br />

together. Despite Liam's<br />

displeasure about her<br />

business trip to Mexico<br />

with Wyatt, Hope<br />

embarked on the<br />

international adventure<br />

and made it clear to<br />

Wyatt why she picked his<br />

company's jewelry line<br />

for Forrester. Brooke's<br />

attempts to make peace<br />

with Katie were derailed<br />

when Katie asked about<br />

her sister's current living<br />

situation with Bill.<br />

BETRAYAL<br />

On the series<br />

premiere, Sara, a<br />

professional photographer,<br />

met Jack, a<br />

high-profile attorney,<br />

and they shared an<br />

immediate attraction.<br />

Sara was unaware that<br />

Jack's big client is a<br />

shady entrepreneur,<br />

Thatcher, and that Jack<br />

is married to Thatcher's<br />

daughter. When<br />

Thatcher's brother-inlaw<br />

was murdered, the<br />

evidence pointed to TJ,<br />

Thatcher's mentally<br />

challenged son. Sara was<br />

horrified when she found<br />

out that her prosecutor<br />

husband, Drew, and her<br />

clandestine lover, Jack,<br />

would be on opposite<br />

sides of a murder<br />

investigation.<br />

DAYS OF OUR<br />

LIVES<br />

Holding Jennifer at<br />

fault for her life being in<br />

ruins and faced with the<br />

prospect of jail, Theresa<br />

vowed revenge against<br />

Jen, with Anne a willing<br />

accomplice. As Brady<br />

and Kristen began their<br />

Pre-Cana marriage<br />

conferences with Eric, he<br />

began to have memory<br />

flashes. Although happy<br />

with Chad, Abigail had<br />

conflicting feelings when<br />

she saw Cameron with<br />

Gabi. Meanwhile, EJ<br />

accidentally learned<br />

Chad's secret and used it<br />

to get what he wants.<br />

Will lashed out at Sonny<br />

for playing matchmaker<br />

for Gabi, and keeping<br />

secrets from him. Nicole<br />

got a tempting job offer.<br />

GENERAL<br />

HOSPITAL<br />

Sabrina's ex, Carlos,<br />

openly admitted to<br />

Patrick that he wants his<br />

girlfriend back, accusing<br />

Patrick of not being over<br />

his dead wife since he<br />

still wears his ring. As<br />

Luke's condition<br />

deteriorated he was<br />

surprised by a demon<br />

from his past. Uneasy at<br />

witnessing Alexis and<br />

Derek flirting, Shawn<br />

told her that he knows<br />

the name of the rival<br />

organization's head.<br />

Learning about Silas'<br />

childhood, Sam<br />

wondered about his past<br />

with Ava. Nikolas got<br />

closer to Britt after she<br />

and Ben moved into<br />

Wyndemere. Maxie<br />

found it rough going to be<br />

at Connie's christening.<br />

LUCKY 7<br />

On the series<br />

premiere, seven coworkers<br />

at a gas station<br />

and mini mart found the<br />

problems and<br />

aspirations of their lives<br />

changed by a winning<br />

lottery ticket, not<br />

necessarily for the better.<br />

Matt hoped to get his<br />

pregnant girlfriend and<br />

their other child out of<br />

his mother's house, his<br />

brother Nicky needed to<br />

pay off a dangerous debt,<br />

Leanne, a single mother,<br />

struggles to keep her<br />

past hidden in the glare<br />

of publicity. Denise<br />

vowed to improve her<br />

crumbling marriage, and<br />

Antonio intended to use<br />

the big win to give his<br />

family a whole new life.<br />

NASHVILLE<br />

On the season<br />

premiere, the car crash<br />

left Rayna in a coma,<br />

while Deacon waited to<br />

learn how long he'd be<br />

sentenced to jail. Trying<br />

to deal with the fact that<br />

Deacon is her father,<br />

Maddie confided in<br />

Juliette, revealing the<br />

events that led to the<br />

crash. Shell-shocked by<br />

the news of Peggy's<br />

pregnancy and kneedeep<br />

in his own political<br />

troubles, Teddy tried to<br />

decide whether he<br />

belongs with his wife and<br />

family, or his girlfriend.<br />

With Gunnar and<br />

Scarlett's relationship<br />

made even more<br />

complicated by the<br />

proposal, they turned to<br />

friends Will and Zoey for<br />

support.<br />

ONCE UPON A<br />

TIME<br />

On the season<br />

premiere, desperate to<br />

find and rescue Henry,<br />

Emma, Mary Margaret,<br />

David, Regina and Mr.<br />

Gold traveled through a<br />

portal on the Jolly Roger<br />

and entered Neverland.<br />

The magic land came<br />

with its own dangers, as<br />

a group of mermaids<br />

posed an immediate<br />

threat. Henry and<br />

another escapee from<br />

Peter Pan's compound<br />

fled the Lost Boys and<br />

were on the run. Neal/<br />

Bae, who survived his<br />

wounds with some royal<br />

help, traveled the<br />

Enchanted Forest with<br />

Mulan to learn the fate<br />

of Emma and Henry.<br />

REVENGE<br />

On the season<br />

premiere, several<br />

months have passed<br />

since the traumatic<br />

events that brought<br />

death to the Hamptons,<br />

and Emily, Daniel,<br />

Nolan, Charlotte,<br />

Victoria, Conrad and<br />

Jack have all paid a<br />

price, each in their own<br />

way. The return of<br />

Victoria's son, Patrick,<br />

brought changes and<br />

complications to the<br />

powerful Grayson clan,<br />

that came to light at an<br />

emotion-charged family<br />

reunion. A glimpse into<br />

the future of Emily and<br />

Daniel's glamorous<br />

wedding plans could end<br />

with the bride's sudden<br />

death.<br />

VAMPIRE DIARIES<br />

On a rebroadcast of<br />

the season four finale,<br />

on settling old scores. A<br />

revenge-seeking spirit<br />

threatened Damon's<br />

existence, while Matt<br />

and Rebekah battled a<br />

ghost who wanted the<br />

cure. Elena's<br />

confrontation with<br />

Katherine resulted in the<br />

unexpected target.<br />

Having already made the<br />

ultimate sacrifice,<br />

Bonnie launched a plan<br />

that closed the veil and<br />

shut out the ghosts.<br />

Stefan found a horrifying<br />

clue about Silas.<br />

YOUNG AND<br />

Your Week Ahead Horoscope<br />

Sept. 20, 2013 - Sept. 26, 2013<br />

by Lasha Seniuk<br />

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr.<br />

19): Keep your schedule<br />

light. Save the heavy<br />

lifting for later in the<br />

week, as today should be<br />

devoted to carefree<br />

activities. Taking a day<br />

to recharge your<br />

batteries will leave you<br />

with plenty of energy<br />

when you need it.<br />

TAURUS (Apr. 20-<br />

May 20): Focus on<br />

where you are rather<br />

than where you want to<br />

be. Events may not<br />

unfold according to plan,<br />

but there's no reason<br />

you can't make the best<br />

of it. Prepare to meet<br />

unique people and greet<br />

unexpected visitors.<br />

GEMINI (May 21-<br />

June 20): There's only<br />

so much of you to go<br />

around. Making new<br />

friends may cause old<br />

friends or loved ones to<br />

feel neglected. While<br />

this is, indeed, more<br />

their problem than<br />

yours, at least make an<br />

effort to be considerate.<br />

CANCER (June 21-<br />

July 22): A happy home<br />

makes a happy heart.<br />

Do something to spruce<br />

up the house that will<br />

make you proud to cross<br />

the doorstep. Speak<br />

frankly with loved ones<br />

and make sure there<br />

aren't any issues that<br />

need to be addressed.<br />

LEO (July 23-Aug.<br />

22): Only in fairy tales<br />

does everyone live<br />

happily ever after. Don't<br />

take foolish risks and<br />

expect everything to<br />

turn out for the best. Let<br />

common sense be your<br />

guide and reap the<br />

greatest rewards by<br />

playing it safe.<br />

VIRGO (Aug. 23-<br />

Sept. 22): Don't take<br />

sides. Stay out of other<br />

people's arguments and<br />

disagreements and let<br />

them hash things out on<br />

their own. Showing<br />

favoritism may put you<br />

on the spot over a<br />

matter that isn't really<br />

any of your concern.<br />

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.<br />

22.): Don't pull your<br />

punches. When asked<br />

for your opinion, don't<br />

hesitate to say what you<br />

really feel. While not<br />

everyone may agree with<br />

you, they will admire<br />

your honesty and<br />

conviction.<br />

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-<br />

Nov. 21): You can't have<br />

your cake and eat it, too.<br />

Compromise is the<br />

keyword for today. In<br />

order to get what you<br />

want you may have to<br />

give something up.<br />

Something labeled as<br />

"new" doesn't necessarily<br />

mean "better."<br />

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.<br />

22-Dec. 21): Give what<br />

you can. While you may<br />

not be rolling in clover<br />

yourself, there's no harm<br />

in providing a handout to<br />

a friend in need. You may<br />

find that your perception<br />

of what you find<br />

attractive is changing.<br />

CAPRICORN (Dec.<br />

22-Jan. 19): Don't put all<br />

your eggs in one basket.<br />

Having too much faith<br />

that one opportunity will<br />

be the answer to all your<br />

troubles will only lead to<br />

a fall. Spend your hardearned<br />

money only on<br />

essentials.<br />

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-<br />

Feb. 18): Exercise keeps<br />

body and soul together.<br />

Take a trip to the gym to<br />

tone up those muscles, or<br />

stretch your mind with a<br />

perplexing puzzle. Use<br />

your best judgment and<br />

taste when selecting new<br />

possessions.<br />

PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar.<br />

20): Little things mean a<br />

lot. The smallest gesture<br />

can go a long way toward<br />

brightening a friend or<br />

loved ones' day. On the<br />

flip side, you don't need<br />

to spend a mint to make<br />

someone happy.<br />

THURSDAY<br />

September 19, 2013<br />

Guest Editorial<br />

by Dara Demi<br />

Marketing Services<br />

Manager, NCDOT<br />

Each year, too many<br />

children die on North<br />

Carolina highways,<br />

because they were not<br />

buckled properly or<br />

buckled in at all. To help<br />

save young lives, the<br />

Governor’s Highway<br />

Safety Program, in<br />

partnership with the<br />

N.C. Department of<br />

Transportation and the<br />

N.C. Department of<br />

Insurance, kicked off<br />

Child Passenger Safety<br />

Week today in Asheville.<br />

The goal of the campaign<br />

is to raise awareness<br />

about how to use child<br />

restraints in vehicles the<br />

right way.<br />

“We care about the<br />

safety of all those who<br />

travel along North<br />

Carolina roadways,” said<br />

NCDOT Secretary Tony<br />

Tata. “The safety of our<br />

children, though, is a top<br />

priority. Buckling them<br />

in properly only takes a<br />

few moments and makes<br />

a lasting difference<br />

during a crash.”<br />

In 2012, 60 children<br />

in North Carolina were<br />

killed and 107 seriously<br />

injured in car crashes.<br />

Sixty-two percent of<br />

those who died and 46<br />

percent of those seriously<br />

injured were not buckled<br />

in either a car seat or a<br />

seat belt.<br />

“Buckling up saves<br />

lives. As parents and<br />

caregivers, we have the<br />

responsibility to make<br />

sure that our children<br />

are properly restrained<br />

every time they ride in a<br />

car,” said Insurance<br />

Commissioner Wayne<br />

Goodwin, chair of Safe<br />

Kids North Carolina.<br />

“<strong>This</strong> week is meant to<br />

highlight the importance<br />

of everyone buckling up<br />

- especially our youngest<br />

passengers.”<br />

To share that<br />

message, the Governor’s<br />

Highway Safety Program<br />

produced a new<br />

public service announcement,<br />

which is airing<br />

statewide on digital and<br />

television media during<br />

the campaign. The PSA<br />

highlights www. Buckle<br />

upNC.org, a helpful<br />

resource where adults<br />

can easily read the laws<br />

regarding child restraints<br />

in vehicles, get tips on<br />

how to pick the right car<br />

seat and find the<br />

permanent car seat<br />

checking station in their<br />

area.<br />

Permanent checking<br />

stations are available in<br />

62 counties across North<br />

Carolina at more than<br />

180 locations. Each<br />

station has trained<br />

technicians who can<br />

teach parents and<br />

caregivers how to<br />

properly install and use<br />

child restraints in<br />

vehicles.<br />

To further address the<br />

issue of child fatalities<br />

and injuries in car<br />

crashes, North Carolina<br />

launched a child<br />

passenger safety diversion<br />

program in 2010.<br />

It is currently operating<br />

or being implemented in<br />

38 counties across the<br />

state.<br />

Drivers who are cited<br />

by law enforcement<br />

officers for child restraint<br />

violations have the<br />

opportunity to get their<br />

citations dismissed if they<br />

visit a certified safety seat<br />

checking station in their<br />

county. After learning<br />

how to properly secure<br />

their child and install an<br />

appropriate car seat in<br />

their vehicle, they will be<br />

issued a certificate to<br />

bring to court to get their<br />

ticket dismissed.<br />

The diversion program<br />

and checking<br />

stations represent a<br />

partnership between fire<br />

departments, law enforcement,<br />

district<br />

attorneys and safety<br />

experts help to prevent<br />

motor vehicle injuries<br />

among children.<br />

Safety Week, visit the<br />

The campaign started<br />

yesterday and concludes<br />

with Seat Check<br />

Letter To Editor<br />

“RENDER UNTO CAESAR”<br />

To The Editor:<br />

In reference to Mr. Bowman’s letter to the editor<br />

in The Butner-<strong>Creedmoor</strong> News on September 12,<br />

grumbling about New Jersey Governor Christie’s<br />

signing a bill banning gay conversion therapy, may I<br />

suggest Mr. Bowman also complain about laws that<br />

ban slavery as Bible clearly allows.<br />

On the top of my head, see Leviticus 25: 44-46<br />

NLT, Exodus 21: 2-11 NLT, Exodus 21:20-21 NAB,<br />

Ephesians 6:5 NLT, 1 Timothy 6: 1-2 NLT, and Luke<br />

12: 47-48 NLT.<br />

Maybe we should all “Render therefore unto<br />

Caesar,” (Matthew 22: 20-22 KJV).<br />

A Long Way To Charlotte<br />

I n the town of<br />

Albemarle, busy<br />

restaurants and shopping<br />

strips line NC 24 as<br />

tractor-trailers bustle up<br />

and down the highway<br />

leading to Charlotte.<br />

Thirty miles to the<br />

south, in Wadesboro, it's<br />

a different story. The<br />

Anson County town looks<br />

a lot like it did a few<br />

decades ago. The big<br />

textile mills that operated<br />

for years have closed, and<br />

Anson is one of 18 North<br />

Carolina counties whose<br />

un-employment rate<br />

exceeds 11 percent.<br />

There is another<br />

difference between<br />

Albemarle and Wadesboro.<br />

NC 24 is a modern,<br />

four-lane highway for its<br />

entire stretch from<br />

Albemarle to the<br />

Interstate-485 loop<br />

around Charlotte. The<br />

corresponding highway<br />

from Wadesboro to<br />

Charlotte, US 74, is not.<br />

On many days, it is<br />

congested, sluggish mess.<br />

State Rep. Bill<br />

Brawley, a Mecklenburg<br />

County Republican,<br />

pointed out the disparity<br />

at a recent meeting of a<br />

legislative oversight<br />

committee.<br />

"Timewise,<br />

they<br />

(Wadesboro<br />

residents)<br />

a r e<br />

farther<br />

from<br />

Charotte<br />

than<br />

Hickory,"<br />

Brawley said.<br />

Brawley and his<br />

legislative colleagues<br />

hope that a new roadbuilding<br />

formula sought<br />

by Gov. Pat McCrory<br />

and approved by the<br />

legislature earlier this<br />

year will help the<br />

dozens of Wadesboros<br />

around the state, whose<br />

economies could benefit<br />

from modern transportation<br />

corridors<br />

leading to transportation<br />

hubs and job<br />

centers like Charlotte.<br />

Brawley says it is<br />

about more than<br />

allowing commuters<br />

access to employers in<br />

big cities. It is also about<br />

encouraging manufacturing,<br />

which requires<br />

access to airports<br />

and ports, in those<br />

outlying communities,<br />

A V IEW<br />

F ROM<br />

R ALEIGH<br />

T HE R ALEIGH R EPORT<br />

he says.<br />

It's not<br />

yet clear<br />

that will<br />

happen,<br />

though.<br />

The<br />

formula<br />

puts more<br />

emphasis<br />

By Scott on projects<br />

of<br />

Mooneyham<br />

statewide<br />

importance,<br />

but the scoring criteria<br />

that will determine what<br />

roads will be built is still<br />

being developed and will<br />

only be put to the test over<br />

time.<br />

Brawley and some of<br />

his colleagues worry that<br />

emphasis on "accessibility<br />

and connectivity," as<br />

called for in the plan,<br />

might get pushed aside in<br />

favor of other aspects of<br />

the criteria.<br />

Even if they don't,<br />

there are no guarantees<br />

that every Wadesboro will<br />

become Albemarle.<br />

Every community has<br />

its own, unique<br />

impediments to economic<br />

development. And not<br />

every town wants onesize-fits-all<br />

development<br />

associated with either<br />

being a bedroom community<br />

for a larger city or<br />

even being a home to<br />

small manufacturing.<br />

Regarding Wadesboro,<br />

existing plans to<br />

improve US 74 with a<br />

bypass around Monroe<br />

have been caught up in<br />

fights over tolling the<br />

road and in a lawsuit<br />

challenging the project<br />

due to environmental<br />

concerns.<br />

Arguments can and<br />

have been made that<br />

building roads that<br />

encourage sprawl, without<br />

any overall economic<br />

benefit, is not a wise<br />

expenditure of money.<br />

Still, effective and<br />

efficient transportation<br />

corridors -- whether they<br />

were rivers, plank roads<br />

or railroads -- have<br />

always encouraged<br />

economic growth.<br />

North Carolina's<br />

bigger cities, as job and<br />

economic centers, need<br />

good roads, but so do the<br />

Wadesboros of the state.<br />

Balancing those<br />

needs and spending road<br />

dollars effectively has<br />

never been easy.<br />

But a lot of people in<br />

a lot of places are<br />

depending on the<br />

changes in the<br />

distribution formula<br />

making it a little easier.<br />

The Raleigh Report<br />

Allan Gurganus is<br />

back—with a bang<br />

Say Allan Gurganus’s<br />

name in a group of<br />

readers, and several may<br />

tell you that the Rocky<br />

Mount native's "Oldest<br />

Living Confederate<br />

Widow Tells All" is their<br />

favorite novel of all time.<br />

"Widow" came out in<br />

1989, followed in 1990 by<br />

"Plays Well with Others."<br />

Then there were a couple<br />

of short story collection,<br />

including "White People,"<br />

but no other new books<br />

from Gurganus in many<br />

years.<br />

So, what has he been<br />

doing? "Writing, every<br />

day," he says, "and getting<br />

up at 6 a.m. to do it."<br />

Finally, next week we<br />

can buy and read a new<br />

Gurganus book, one that<br />

takes us back to the<br />

fictional eastern North<br />

Carolina town of Falls,<br />

where "Widow" and many<br />

of his short stories have<br />

been set.<br />

"Local Souls" is not a<br />

novel, but three separate<br />

novellas. All are set in<br />

Falls, but the characters<br />

and stories are<br />

independent and quite<br />

different.<br />

Susan, the main<br />

character in the first<br />

novella, "Fear Not," is a<br />

14-year-old all-American<br />

girl growing up in Falls<br />

when her father dies in a<br />

boating accident. Seduced<br />

and made<br />

pregnant<br />

by her<br />

godfather,<br />

she gives<br />

up her<br />

b a b y ,<br />

pulls her<br />

l i f e<br />

together,<br />

l a t e r<br />

marries,<br />

has two<br />

children,<br />

and leads a normal life<br />

until she is reunited<br />

with the child she gave<br />

up. Then her life is<br />

transformed in a<br />

surprising and puzzling<br />

way, one that only<br />

Gurganus could conjure<br />

up.<br />

In the second<br />

novella, "Saints Have<br />

Mothers," a divorced<br />

woman, smart and<br />

ambitious enough to<br />

have published a poem<br />

in The Atlantic<br />

magazine, has two boys<br />

and a 17-year-old girl.<br />

The daughter is more<br />

committed to serving<br />

those in need than she<br />

is to her mother. But her<br />

mother's life is wrapped<br />

up in hopes for her<br />

daughter’s future.<br />

When the daughter<br />

announces that she<br />

plans to go to Africa on<br />

a service project, the<br />

mother objects. But the<br />

daughter goes anyway.<br />

Communication with<br />

her daughter<br />

is spotty<br />

until a<br />

middle of the<br />

night phone<br />

call brings<br />

word of the<br />

By daughter's<br />

D.G. death. As<br />

Martin the mother<br />

and the<br />

F a l l s<br />

community<br />

prepare for a<br />

memorial service,<br />

Gurganus brings the<br />

story to a shocking and<br />

touching conclusion.<br />

The third novella,<br />

"Decoy," is the history of<br />

a relationship between<br />

two men. One is a beloved<br />

family doctor, part of an<br />

established Falls family.<br />

The other is a newcomer,<br />

who came from the<br />

poverty of struggling farm<br />

life, but has achieved<br />

modest financial success<br />

and near acceptance by<br />

Falls's elite. When the<br />

doctor retires, their<br />

friendship is disturbed<br />

and then swept away by<br />

a "Fran-like" flood that<br />

destroys both men’s<br />

homes and much of Falls.<br />

With these three<br />

stories, Gurganus demonstrates<br />

that he has not<br />

lost the story-telling<br />

power that propelled him<br />

to fame.<br />

And he leaves us<br />

hoping that we will not<br />

have to wait so long for his<br />

next offering.<br />

Others agree. John<br />

Irving, author of "The<br />

World According to<br />

Garp," writes, "Gurganus's<br />

storytelling is<br />

flawless. His narration<br />

becomes a Greek chorus,<br />

Sophocles in North<br />

Carolina. Gurganus<br />

makes the preternatural<br />

feel natural. Sexual<br />

taboos, a parent’s worst<br />

fears: these emerge in<br />

tones comic and<br />

horrifying. Each novella<br />

delivers an ending of<br />

true force."<br />

Ann Patchett, author<br />

of "Bel Canto" and a<br />

former student of<br />

Gurganus, says he<br />

"breathes so much life<br />

into the town of Falls,<br />

North Carolina, his<br />

reader is able to walk<br />

down the streets and<br />

mingle with the local<br />

souls. <strong>This</strong> book<br />

underscores what we<br />

have long known—<br />

Gurganus stands among<br />

the best writers of our<br />

time."<br />

More important than<br />

this praise, Gurganus’s<br />

fiction gives us a true<br />

look at our fellow North<br />

Carolinians in a<br />

struggling region as they<br />

cope with the challenges<br />

of contemporary times.

one more opportunity to<br />

score in the first quarter.<br />

the move when a block in<br />

the back call stalled the<br />

over after a fake punt<br />

attempt by the Panthers.<br />

coach insisted that the<br />

game be played in its<br />

entirety. Granville<br />

Central added one more<br />

touchdown in the third<br />

HOW IS<br />

THE JOB<br />

MARKET<br />

LIKE<br />

WEIGHTLIFTING?<br />

For over 40 years I’ve enjoyed weightlifting as a<br />

break from economics and as a form of exercise. I’ve<br />

even participated in some contests (however, never<br />

winning any trophies). Age has forced me to slow down<br />

a bit, although I can still "deadlift" -- lifting the weight<br />

off the floor to a standing position -- close to 600<br />

pounds.<br />

If you hang around weight rooms like I do, you’ll<br />

notice a common shape to much of the equipment.<br />

Take a dumbbell, for instance. It has an equal amount<br />

of weight on both sides, connected by a narrow handle<br />

used for griping. Or when I do a deadlift off the gym<br />

floor, I hold and lift a relatively light bar that has much<br />

heavier weights (in the form of plates) on both sides.<br />

I’m telling you this because our current job market<br />

looks a lot like a dumbbell or the bar and plates I pull<br />

for a deadlift. What we’re seeing in the job market is<br />

job growth at the two ends of the market, the highpay<br />

end and the low-pay end, with very little job<br />

growth in the middle.<br />

A recent study confirmed this description for the<br />

national economy. Since early 2010, when the job<br />

market started to improve, through 2012, the<br />

occupations adding the most jobs were food preparers<br />

and personal-care workers at the low end of the pay<br />

scale and management, computer, finance and<br />

advanced health care practitioners at the high end of<br />

the pay scale. Traditional middle-paying jobs in<br />

construction and teaching actually experienced losses.<br />

I was curious to see if the same results have<br />

occurred in North Carolina, so I checked the statistics.<br />

The answer is yes, a similar pattern has happened,<br />

although with some slight differences. For the two<br />

years from 2010 to 2012, the largest job gains have<br />

been for food prep and personal-care workers paying<br />

relatively low wages and for finance and advanced<br />

health care workers receiving relatively high wages.<br />

In our state, protective service jobs, paying mid-level<br />

wages, also was a big job gainer but high-paying<br />

management jobs, which gained at the national level,<br />

lost positions in North Carolina.<br />

Why is this pattern occurring? A big part of the<br />

answer is technology. Computers and other<br />

information technology devices have taken the place<br />

of people for many routine-oriented jobs; that is, jobs<br />

that a machine can be programmed to do. Factory jobs<br />

are a good example. Many say the factory of the future<br />

will have robots doing all the work, with only a few<br />

people behind the controls.<br />

In contrast, it’s more difficult to use technology to<br />

replace workers where direct personal contact is<br />

needed -- as with food prep and personal care jobs --<br />

or where decisions are very complex -- like in finance,<br />

management and medical diagnoses.<br />

There are other possible reasons for the pattern.<br />

Traditionally, construction and construction-related<br />

jobs have been mainstays of middle-paying positions.<br />

Yet these occupations were devastated with the crash<br />

of the residential housing market. And although the<br />

housing market is now staging a comeback,<br />

construction jobs have not. Indeed, in the last two<br />

years, North Carolina has still lost jobs related to<br />

building.<br />

Most economists think there will eventually be a<br />

rebound in construction jobs, and if they’re right, that<br />

will be good news for shoring up the middle of the pay<br />

ladder. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, losses in<br />

manufacturing jobs were absorbed by gains in<br />

construction jobs.<br />

Perhaps the most interesting explanation for the<br />

lack of growth in middle-paying jobs has to do with<br />

supply and not demand. That is, it’s not that<br />

companies don’t want to hire people for jobs in the<br />

mid-range of the pay distribution. Instead, the<br />

problem is there aren’t individuals with the needed<br />

kind of training and skills for these jobs.<br />

<strong>This</strong> issue was highlighted in a recent study from<br />

a national business consulting firm. They forecasted<br />

that by 2020, the nation could face a shortage of close<br />

to 900,000 skilled manufacturing and technical<br />

workers, such as machinists, welders and machinery<br />

operators. They recommend more be done in schools -<br />

- especially high schools – to offer training in these<br />

fields.. The consultants also call on businesses to<br />

become more involved in promoting -- and maybe in<br />

help to finance -- these skills and the jobs tied to them.<br />

The dumbbell shape of today’s job market has<br />

impacts beyond just where people work. Our country<br />

has long been known as a middle-class nation; indeed,<br />

most people identify themselves as middle-class. But<br />

the growth in jobs at both ends of the pay scale (lowpay<br />

and high-pay) reduces the size of the middle class,<br />

leaving profound implications for social cohesion,<br />

income inequality and income mobility.<br />

What, if anything, can we do about this, and who<br />

needs to do it? You decide. Now let’s go pump some<br />

iron!<br />

INFORMATION PROVIDED BY<br />

Cozart & Edwards, PA<br />

Certified Public Accountants<br />

REVIEW THE 2013 RULES ON<br />

MEDICAL EXPENSES AND TAXES<br />

The 2010 law on health care reform included some<br />

changes on medical expenses and taxes that go into<br />

effect this year.<br />

First, the amount that you can contribute to a<br />

health flexible spending account (FSA) is now limited<br />

to $2,500 a year. The limit will be adjusted annually<br />

for inflation.<br />

Next, there’s a change in the threshold for<br />

deducting unreimbursed medical expenses. For those<br />

under the age of 65, the prior threshold was 7.5% of<br />

adjusted gross income. Now only unreimbursed<br />

medical expenses exceeding 10% of a taxpayer’s<br />

adjusted gross income are deductible. Taxpayers who<br />

are 65 and older may continue to take an itemized<br />

deduction for medical expenses exceeding 7.5% of<br />

adjusted gross income through the year 2016.<br />

The IRS issued "Seven Important Tax Facts About<br />

Medical and Dental Expenses" reminding taxpayers<br />

of the rules governing deductibility of costs not<br />

reimbursed by insurance.<br />

Not only is the deduction for medical and dental<br />

expenses limited by the 10% adjusted gross income<br />

threshold, taxpayers must itemize deductions to<br />

benefit. No expenses can be claimed where the<br />

standard deduction is taken.<br />

Qualifying expenses include most medical and<br />

dental costs paid for the taxpayer and his or her<br />

spouse and dependents. Prescription drugs and<br />

insulin qualify, and the cost of medical, dental, and<br />

some long-term care insurance also qualifies. The cost<br />

of travel to obtain medical care qualifies, including<br />

the cost of public transportation or an ambulance,<br />

plus tolls and parking fees. If a car is used for medical<br />

travel, a standard mileage rate of 24 cents a mile is<br />

deductible.<br />

Since using funds from health savings accounts<br />

or flexible spending arrangements to pay for medical<br />

expenses is usually tax-free, no deduction is allowed<br />

for expenses paid with funds from these plans.<br />

If you need details about the current rules on<br />

deducting medical expenses, contact our office.<br />

Senior<br />

You ask the Senior question ~ We find the Savvy answer<br />

How to Get Paid for Being a Family Caregiver<br />

Dear Savvy Senior,<br />

I have been taking care of my elderly mother for<br />

nearly three years and it’s taking a huge toll on my<br />

finances. Are there any resources you know about that<br />

can help family caregivers get paid?<br />

Financially Exhausted<br />

Dear Exhausted,<br />

To get paid as a family caregiver, there are various<br />

government programs, tax breaks and family payment<br />

options that may be able to help you, depending on<br />

your mom’s financial situation. Here’s where to look<br />

for help.<br />

State Aid<br />

If your mom is low-income and eligible for<br />

Medicaid, you may be able to get paid a small amount<br />

by the state. In 15 states, Medicaid offers a Cash &<br />

Counseling program (see cashandcounseling.org) that<br />

provides an allowance that can be used for various<br />

services, including paying family members for care.<br />

Many other states have similar programs for lowincome<br />

seniors, even if the person receiving care<br />

doesn’t quite qualify for Medicaid.. To find out about<br />

these options contact your local Medicaid office.<br />

Veterans Aid<br />

In some communities across the U.S., veterans<br />

who are at risk of nursing home placement can enroll<br />

in the Veteran-Directed Home and Community Based<br />

Services program, that allows veterans to manage<br />

their own care, including hiring and paying their own<br />

caregivers..<br />

Also available to wartime veterans and their<br />

spouses, is a benefit called Aid and Attendance that<br />

helps pay for in-home care, as well as assisted living<br />

and nursing home care. <strong>This</strong> benefit can also be used<br />

to pay family caregivers.<br />

To be eligible your mom must need assistance with<br />

daily living activities like bathing, dressing or going<br />

to the bathroom. And, her income must be under<br />

$13,362 as a surviving spouse – minus medical and<br />

long-term care expenses. If your mom is a single<br />

veteran, her income must be below $20,795 to be<br />

eligible. Her assets must also be less than $80,000<br />

excluding her home and car.<br />

To learn more see va.gov/geriatrics, or contact your<br />

regional VA office, or your local veterans service<br />

organization. For contact information, call 800-827-<br />

1000.<br />

Tax Breaks<br />

Uncle Sam may also be able to help if you pay at<br />

least half of your mom’s yearly expenses, and her<br />

annual income was below $3,900 in 2013 (not counting<br />

Social Security). If so, you can claim her as a<br />

dependent on your taxes, and reduce your taxable<br />

income by $3,900. See IRS Publication 501<br />

(www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p501.pdf) or call the IRS<br />

help-line at 800-829-1040 for information.<br />

If you can’t claim your mom as a dependent, you<br />

may still be able to get a tax break if you’re paying at<br />

least half her living expenses including her medical<br />

and long-term care costs, and they exceed 10 percent<br />

(or 7.5 percent if you’re 65 or over) of your adjusted<br />

gross income. You can include your own medical<br />

expenses in calculating the total. See the IRS<br />

publication 502 (www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p502.pdf) for<br />

details..<br />

Family Payments<br />

If your mom doesn’t financially qualify for the<br />

government aid or the tax breaks, can she afford to<br />

pay you herself or do you have any siblings that would<br />

be willing to chip in? After all, if your mom had to pay<br />

for home care services, the costs would be anywhere<br />

between $12 and $25 per hour.<br />

If she agrees to pay you, it’s best that you or an<br />

attorney draft a short written contract detailing your<br />

work and payment arrangements so every one<br />

involved knows what to expect. A contract will also<br />

help avoid potential problems should your mom ever<br />

need to apply for Medicaid for nursing home care.<br />

Another payment option to consider is for your<br />

mom to adjust her will, so you receive a larger portion<br />

of her estate for providing her care. But to avoid<br />

conflict, be sure all family members are aware and in<br />

agreement.<br />

Also, check to see if your mom has any long-term<br />

care insurance that covers in-home care. If she does,<br />

in some cases those benefits may be used to pay you.<br />

EDWARD JONES INVESTMENT FIRM<br />

CONSIDER YOUR INVESTMENT STRATEGY . . .<br />

AT EACH “SEASON” OF YOUR LIFE<br />

Autumn is almost here. And just as your everyday<br />

tasks change with the seasons, so, too, will your<br />

money management and investment activities at<br />

different phases of your life.<br />

When you’re first starting out, you may need to<br />

repay student debts, but you’ll still need to think<br />

about saving for retirement. So, try to contribute<br />

whatever you can afford to retirement accounts, such<br />

as an IRA and a 401(k). If you have children, you’ll<br />

also want to consider a college savings account, such<br />

as a 529 plan. And you’ll need enough life insurance<br />

to protect your young family.<br />

Later on, when you’re in the middle-to-late stages<br />

of your career, and your income has risen, try to “max<br />

out” your retirement accounts.<br />

As you enter retirement, your chief financial<br />

decision may be how to tap into your retirement<br />

accounts at a sustainable rate that won’t cause you<br />

to outlive your resources.<br />

With diligence and discipline, you can find a<br />

financial and investment strategy to carry you<br />

through the seasons of your life.<br />

the vase-shaped. Each<br />

plant has its own hue,<br />

texture and pungent<br />

scents.<br />

will enlighten all the<br />

garden artists.<br />

work is finished.”<br />

Current Version of GED Near Expiration<br />

Vance - Granville<br />

Community College is<br />

reminding area adults<br />

who have started but not<br />

completed the GED that<br />

the current version of<br />

the test, known as the<br />

2002 Series GED Test,<br />

will expire at the end of<br />

the year. The national<br />

GED Testing Service<br />

will replace that series<br />

with a new version on<br />

Jan. 2, 2014.<br />

Students who have<br />

completed at least one<br />

part of the GED test, but<br />

not passed all five<br />

content areas, have until<br />

the end of 2013 to pass<br />

all of the test<br />

components. Otherwise,<br />

the students’ previous<br />

scores will expire and<br />

they will need to start<br />

over again with the new<br />

2014 GED test in order<br />

to receive their high<br />

school equivalency<br />

credential. The five<br />

content areas include<br />

writing, reading, social<br />

studies, science, and<br />

math.<br />

“It’s not too late to<br />

complete the 2002<br />

series,” said VGCC<br />

Adult Basic Skills<br />

department chair Cathy<br />

Barham. “Time is<br />

running out, but our<br />

department is ready to<br />

assist adults who need<br />

to complete their GED,<br />

which will allow them to<br />

qualify for better job<br />

opportunities and to<br />

enroll in an academic<br />

program at VGCC or<br />

another institution of<br />

higher learning.”<br />

Barham said that in<br />

order to help all<br />

students be successful,<br />

VGCC has scheduled<br />

additional evening<br />

classes for students who<br />

need extra assistance<br />

preparing for one or<br />

more of the content<br />

areas. VGCC provides<br />

free GED preparation<br />

classes at all four college<br />

campuses — the Main<br />

Campus in Vance<br />

County, the South<br />

Campus between<br />

Butner and <strong>Creedmoor</strong>,<br />

the Franklin County<br />

Campus near Louisburg<br />

and the Warren County<br />

Campus in Warrenton<br />

— as well as several<br />

other community sites<br />

and online. “Support is<br />

available to help all<br />

students, no matter<br />

where they live or how<br />

busy their schedules<br />

are,” Barham said.<br />

GED completion has<br />

opened doors to better<br />

jobs and college<br />

programs for more than<br />

18 million graduates<br />

since 1942. Last year,<br />

nearly 800,000 adults<br />

sat for the GED test,<br />

which is accepted by<br />

virtually all U.S.<br />

colleges and employers.<br />

The GED Testing<br />

Service periodically<br />

makes changes to the<br />

test, ensuring that the<br />

program continues to be<br />

a reliable and valuable<br />

pathway to a better life<br />

for the millions of adults<br />

without a high school<br />

diploma. The 2014 GED<br />

test will consist of four<br />

content areas:<br />

Reasoning through<br />

Language Arts,<br />

Mathematical<br />

Reasoning, Science, and<br />

Social Studies.<br />

temperature. But how do<br />

you know if your home is<br />

properly insulated?<br />

Run through the<br />

following checklist to<br />

determine whether your<br />

home has adequate<br />

insulation:<br />

• Vintage home: Prior to<br />

consistent building codes,<br />

most homes built before<br />

1980 were not insulated.<br />

If your home has no<br />

materials trapping heat,<br />

energy conservation is an<br />

uphill battle. Walls,<br />

ceilings and floors are the<br />

most important areas to<br />

add insulation for an<br />

immediate, positive<br />

impact on a home’s energy<br />

usage and bills.<br />

• Non-stop furnace:<br />

Does your furnace seem to<br />

run non-stop in the<br />

winter? Adequate<br />

insulation leads to less<br />

maintenance on your<br />

heating system, as it lasts<br />

longer, runs less and will<br />

require less maintenance<br />

for long-term cost<br />

savings.<br />

• T emperature<br />

inconsistency: If you feel<br />

cold spots coming from<br />

the walls or attic, or one<br />

room of your home is<br />

drafty and another one<br />

warm, you may need to<br />

beef up your insulation.<br />

The fireplace, walls and<br />

attic are prime spots for<br />

drafts. Look for insulation<br />

that can fit snugly in<br />

rafters and other tight areas.<br />

Roof hot spots: If<br />

your shingles are exposed<br />

after a recent snowfall,<br />

chances are these “hot<br />

spots” are indicative of<br />

warm air escaping. Check<br />

your attic for adequate<br />

insulation. If you can<br />

easily see your floor joists,<br />

you should add more. Use<br />

insulation, such as stone<br />

wool, that won’t sag or<br />

lose density over time.<br />

• Mold Growth: Mold in<br />

the corners of ceilings<br />

Many North Carolina<br />

residents are asking if the<br />

Energy Star tax holiday is<br />

taking place this year<br />

(2013). The answer is<br />

YES. Here is what you<br />

need to know:<br />

1. The Energy Star tax<br />

holiday is taking place<br />

could mean your current<br />

insulation slumps and<br />

holds moisture. If this<br />

occurs, it’s time to replace<br />

your insulation with one<br />

that does not store or<br />

transfer moisture and is<br />

completely resistant to<br />

mold, mildew, rot and<br />

November 1 - 3, 2013.<br />

2. The Energy Star tax<br />

holiday is not going to be<br />

funded after this year.<br />

The North Carolina<br />

Energy Star tax holiday,<br />

introduced in 2008 to<br />

encourage the use of more<br />

energy efficient products<br />

while saving consumers<br />

money, will end in 2014.<br />

That means that the last<br />

chance to take advantage<br />

of this tax holiday in North<br />

Carolina is November 1ñ3,<br />

2013 (between 12:01 A.M.<br />

on the first Friday of<br />

November and 11:59 P.M.<br />

the following Sunday). The<br />

qualified products are<br />

clothes washers, freezers<br />

and refrigerators, central<br />

air conditioners and room<br />

air conditioners, air-source<br />

heat pumps, ceiling fans,<br />

bacterial growth.<br />

Don’t let cool weather<br />

take you by surprise.<br />

With proper insulation,<br />

you can improve the<br />

comfort of your home<br />

significantly and enjoy<br />

energy savings.<br />

Last Chance To Take Advantage<br />

Of Energy Star Tax Holiday<br />

dehumidifiers, and<br />

programmable<br />

thermostats. <strong>This</strong> does not<br />

apply to the rental of a<br />

product or the sale of a<br />

product for use in a trade<br />

or business.<br />

In addition to saving<br />

through the tax holiday,<br />

there are many things that<br />

you can do to save money<br />

and conserve energy every<br />

day. The NC Cooperative<br />

Extension E-Conservation<br />

Program offers helpful<br />

materials, workshops, and<br />

tools to help North<br />

Carolina residents lower<br />

their utility costs by<br />

conserving energy. Learn<br />

The Roof: Look for<br />

roblem areas, such as<br />

issing or broken<br />

hingles, along with<br />

roofing tiles that are<br />

“flapping” in the wind.<br />

These indicate that a new<br />

roof may be in your future.<br />

Newer products on the<br />

market, such as polymer<br />

tiles, are impact-resistant,<br />

and some tiles are fireand<br />

impact-resistant.<br />

Along with helping<br />

protect against potential<br />

wildfires and severe<br />

weather, these roofs often<br />

come with a homeowner<br />

insurance discount. They<br />

also have a 50-year<br />

limited warranty.<br />

Windows: If you find<br />

the windows in your home<br />

don’t operate easily,<br />

there’s air leaking in or<br />

out of the units or<br />

condensation builds up<br />

between the glass panes,<br />

it may be time to replace<br />

them. Consider vinyl<br />

Main Entry Door:<br />

Can you see light around<br />

your door from the<br />

How To Treat Peach Tree Borers<br />

BY CARL CANTALUPPI<br />

EXTENSION AGENT,<br />

AGRICULTURE<br />

NC COOPERATIVE<br />

EXTENSION<br />

GRANVILLE COUNTY<br />

CENTER<br />

Peachtree borers are<br />

caterpillars of a<br />

clearwinged moth. The<br />

moths resemble wasps,<br />

but of course the moths do<br />

not sting. These moths<br />

emerge throughout the<br />

growing season, but the<br />

vast majority of them are<br />

in flight between August<br />

15 and September 15.<br />

Consequently, most of<br />

the borers can be<br />

managed preventively by<br />

treating<br />

with<br />

esfenvalerate,<br />

permethrin, cyfluthrin or<br />

other pyrethroid<br />

insecticide around August<br />

15 and again around<br />

September 1. Mix the<br />

insecticide in a bucket of<br />

water and pour the<br />

mixture on the tree trunk,<br />

3 feet above the ground,<br />

and let it soak into the<br />

ground at the base of the<br />

trunk. It is not necessary<br />

to treat higher into the<br />

tree since the moths lay<br />

eggs at the base of<br />

peaches, plums, cherry<br />

laurels, and ornamental<br />

cherries. From these eggs<br />

hatch tiny, white<br />

caterpillars that bore into<br />

the bark and tunnel in the<br />

cambium at the base of<br />

the tree.<br />

If you do not drench<br />

the tree, the borers will go<br />

into the tree and kill it,<br />

due to the plugging of the<br />

tree's vascular system.<br />

Many times, you will not<br />

notice that the tree is<br />

dying before it's too late<br />

to do anything during the<br />

following spring. The<br />

leaves can wilt and<br />

after the fruit has set. So<br />

take notice and treat<br />

early September so that<br />

If many borers infest<br />

a tree, the cambium may<br />

be completely girdled<br />

beneath the bark and the<br />

tree will die. The borers<br />

pupate inside the infested<br />

tree during late spring<br />

and summer and then<br />

emerge as moths a few<br />

weeks later. Look for<br />

gummy plugs containing<br />

frass (insect excrement)<br />

or partially projecting<br />

It is important to treat<br />

to prevent further borers<br />

from invading the tree.<br />

otherwise is to try to<br />

gouge the borer out from<br />

under the bark without<br />

collapse suddenly, right<br />

during mid August to<br />

you won't become<br />

disappointed next year.<br />

Steps For Growing A Productive Fall Garden<br />

Many vegetables are<br />

well adapted to planting in<br />

the summer for fall harvest.<br />

Planting a fall garden<br />

will extend the gardening<br />

season so you can continue<br />

to harvest fresh produce<br />

after earlier crops<br />

have finished. The fall<br />

harvest can be extended<br />

even further by providing<br />

protection from early frosts<br />

or by planting in cold<br />

frames or hotbeds.<br />

Many cool-season<br />

vegetables, such as carrots,<br />

broccoli, cauliflower, and<br />

Brussels sprouts, produce<br />

their best flavor and<br />

quality when they mature<br />

during cool weather. In<br />

North Carolina, the spring<br />

temperatures often heat<br />

up quickly. Vegetables such<br />

as lettuce and spinach,<br />

tend to bolt or develop<br />

bitter flavor when they<br />

mature during hot<br />

summer weather.<br />

Growing a productive<br />

fall vegetable garden<br />

requires thoughtful<br />

planning and good cultural<br />

practices. July and August<br />

are the main planting<br />

times for the fall garden.<br />

Table 1 provides<br />

recommended planting<br />

dates. Vegetables that<br />

have a 60 to 80 day<br />

maturity cycle should be<br />

planted around August 1 in<br />

the Piedmont. Planting of<br />

quick maturing vegetables,<br />

such as turnips and leafy<br />

greens, can be delayed<br />

until September.<br />

Preparing the Site<br />

Before preparing the<br />

soil for a fall garden, you<br />

must decide what to do<br />

with the remains of the<br />

spring garden. In most<br />

cases, the decision is not<br />

difficult because the coolseason<br />

crops have already<br />

matured and the warmseason<br />

vegetables are<br />

beginning to look ragged.<br />

Remove the previous crop<br />

residue and any weed<br />

growth. Prepare the soil by<br />

tilling or spading to a<br />

depth of at least 6 to 8<br />

inches.<br />

If the spring crops were<br />

heavily fertilized, you may<br />

not need to make an initial<br />

pre-plant fertilization.<br />

Otherwise, 1 to 2 lbs. of a<br />

complete fertilizer such as<br />

10-10-10 may be applied<br />

per 100 ft2. of bed space.<br />

Thoroughly incorporate<br />

the fertilizer.<br />

Planting the Fall<br />

Garden<br />

Direct-seed cole crops<br />

such as broccoli, cabbage,<br />

cauliflower, and collards in<br />

early to mid July so that<br />

they can reach transplant<br />

size by early August, or buy<br />

transplants from a garden<br />

center in August. The<br />

success of direct seeding<br />

depends on having<br />

adequate moisture<br />

available to keep the young<br />

seedlings actively growing<br />

after germination.<br />

Our summers can be<br />

hot and dry. Soils may form<br />

a hard crust over the seeds,<br />

which can interfere with<br />

seed germination,<br />

particularly in heavy clay<br />

soil. Seeds of lettuce and<br />

spinach will not germinate<br />

if the soil temperature<br />

exceeds 85oF. You may<br />

need to cover the seeded<br />

area with burlap cloth,<br />

newspapers, or boards to<br />

keep the soil cool and<br />

moist.<br />

Convenient to all major Triangle<br />

Locations. Call today for your “Home<br />

and Garden” issue special.<br />

using a light mulch over<br />

the seed row will help keep<br />

the temperatures more<br />

favorable for germination.<br />

The shading material must<br />

be removed as soon as the<br />

seeds begin to germinate.<br />

Another useful technique<br />

is to open a furrow, seed,<br />

and cover the seeds with<br />

potting soil or vermiculite.<br />

Young transplants may<br />

also benefit from light<br />

shading for the first few<br />

days after transplanting.<br />

Watering/Fertilizing<br />

Most vegetables<br />

require 1 inch of water per<br />

week. It's best to make a<br />

single watering that<br />

penetrates deeply rather<br />

than frequent shallow<br />

applications. Young<br />

seedlings and germinating<br />

seeds may need more<br />

frequent, light wateriness.<br />

Do not allow seedlings to<br />

dry out excessively. New<br />

transplants may also<br />

benefit from frequent light<br />

waterings until they<br />

develop new roots.<br />

Many fall maturing<br />

vegetables benefit from<br />

sidedressing with nitrogen<br />

just as do spring maturing<br />

vegetables. Most leafy<br />

vegetables will benefit<br />

from an application of<br />

nitrogen three and six<br />

weeks after planting.<br />

Insects and Diseases<br />

It is not uncommon for<br />

insects and diseases to be<br />

more abundant in the fall.<br />

Most problems from<br />

insects and diseases result<br />

from a buildup in their<br />

populations during the<br />

spring and summer. There<br />

is hope of keeping these<br />

pests at tolerable levels,<br />

however, if a few strategies<br />

are followed. Strive to keep<br />

fall vegetables healthy and<br />

actively growing; healthy<br />

plants are less susceptible<br />

to insects and diseases.<br />

Check the plants<br />

frequently for insect and<br />

disease damage. When<br />

sufficient damage is<br />

detected, use an approved<br />

pesticide. You may decide<br />

not to grow vegetables,<br />

such as squash, corn, and<br />

cucumbers that are<br />

specially insect and<br />

disease prone during late<br />

summer and fall.<br />

Frost Protection<br />

You can extend the<br />

season of tender vegetables<br />

by protecting them<br />

through the first early<br />

frost. In North Carolina,<br />

we often enjoy several<br />

weeks of good growing<br />

conditions after the first<br />

frost. Cover growing beds<br />

or rows with burlap or a<br />

floating row cover<br />

supported by stakes or<br />

wire to keep the material<br />

from directly touching the<br />

plants. Individual plants<br />

can be protected by using<br />

milk jugs, paper caps, or<br />

water-holding walls.<br />

Most of the semihardy<br />

and hardy<br />

vegetables will require<br />

little or no frost<br />

protection. Semi-hardy<br />

vegetables should be<br />

harvested before a heavy<br />

freeze. Root crops such as<br />

carrots and radishes<br />

should be harvested or<br />

mulched heavily before a<br />

hard freeze. The harvest<br />

of mulched root crops can<br />

often be extended will into<br />

winters, harvest may<br />

continue until spring.<br />

iving savvy homeowners<br />

clear look at what<br />

otential buyers are<br />

ooking for. Here are a few<br />

nsights:<br />

Windows<br />

When it comes to<br />

indows, energy<br />

fficiency is the prime<br />

onsideration for<br />

onsumers. ENERGY<br />

windows are the three top<br />

“must haves” and<br />

“desirable” types of<br />

windows among new and<br />

potential homebuyers,<br />

according to the NAHB<br />

survey.<br />

As far as materials are<br />

concerned, opting for<br />

lower maintenance vinyl<br />

frames is a good bet, as<br />

survey results from the<br />

study also show that vinyl<br />

framed windows are the<br />

leading preference for<br />

homebuyers for their lowmaintenance<br />

features,<br />

durability and great<br />

insulating factors.<br />

Storage<br />

Homebuyers want<br />

great storage features,<br />

like laundry rooms, linen<br />

closets, garage storage<br />

and walk-in pantries,<br />

says the NAHB survey.<br />

If you don’t have these<br />

features or the budget to<br />

knock down walls or<br />

build additions, you can<br />

at least make the most of<br />

the storage you do have.<br />

Get organized and use<br />

easy-to-install closet<br />

systems that fit into your<br />

existing closets. Doing so<br />

will put your home in the<br />

best light possible.<br />

Entry Doors<br />

Homebuyers want<br />

quality and beauty in<br />

their doors and<br />

entryways, according to<br />

the NAHB study, and<br />

fiberglass doors are<br />

gaining popularity. It’s no<br />

wonder, since the door is<br />

the first thing anyone<br />

sees when entering a<br />

Utilize Your Home’s Hidden Storage Space<br />

As more Americans<br />

are living in their houses<br />

longer due to the<br />

uncertain economy, many<br />

of us are outgrowing our<br />

existing homes. One<br />

innovative solution to<br />

expand your living space<br />

may be right under your<br />

nose -- your neglected<br />

garage.<br />

Moving cars out of the<br />

garage, adding shelving,<br />

cabinetry and overhead<br />

storage can quickly turn<br />

a cluttered dumping<br />

ground into additional<br />

living space. You even<br />

can complete this project<br />

over a weekend.<br />

Once everything is<br />

put away you can add a<br />

television, card and game<br />

tables or even a pool table<br />

as you find new ways to<br />

use your newly-found<br />

space.<br />

To tackle this project,<br />

follow these three easy<br />

steps:<br />

Use It or Lose It<br />

The beginning of any<br />

organization project is to<br />

get rid of items that you<br />

may have not have used<br />

in the last six months or<br />

year. If you haven't<br />

needed the item in that<br />

long, or have forgotten<br />

you have it, you probably<br />

don't need it.<br />

Have a garage sale,<br />

give items to charity or<br />

simply throw things<br />

away. Keeping something<br />

for years in your garage<br />

when you aren't using it<br />

isn't saving you money;<br />

it's costing you valuable<br />

living space.<br />

Store It<br />

Hanging items on<br />

walls with hooks and<br />

storing items on shelving<br />

is a great start. Be sure<br />

to get hooks and storage<br />

systems that make your<br />

life easier. For example,<br />

one set of innovate hooks<br />

from Tornado lets you<br />

install hooks right into<br />

drywall using only a<br />

screwdriver. It's easy to<br />

hang up lawn and garden<br />

tools, ladders, extension<br />

cords, and power tools to<br />

get them out of the way.<br />

Keep Your Fireplace Burning Safely <strong>This</strong> Season<br />

There's a nip in the air<br />

nd you're yearning to<br />

nuggle up in front of a<br />

rackling fire. But before<br />

ou do, there are a few<br />

recautions you should<br />

ake to make sure you and<br />

our loved ones are safe in<br />

ront of those warming<br />

mbers.<br />

Recent statistics<br />

ndicate that an average of<br />

5,100 chimney fires occur<br />

very year, claiming as<br />

any as 30 lives and<br />

ausing $126.1 million in<br />

roperty damage<br />

nnually.<br />

"A fireplace is a<br />

wonderful source of beauty<br />

and comfort, but<br />

homeowners must be<br />

vigilant," says Bill Wetzel.<br />

"Proper fireplace and<br />

chimney maintenance is<br />

the best way to avoid<br />

tragic losses."<br />

If your home has a<br />

wood-burning fireplace,<br />

make sure you follow these<br />

safety measures:<br />

* Get your chimney<br />

and fireplace cleaned<br />

annually. You can do it<br />

yourself if you're willing to<br />

invest in the proper<br />

equipment and time, but<br />

the Chimney Safety<br />

Institute of America<br />

suggests using certified<br />

chimney sweeps. Annual<br />

cleanings reduce the risk<br />

of fires and carbon<br />

monoxide poisonings due<br />

to creosote buildup or<br />

obstructions in the<br />

chimneys. You can find out<br />

more at csia.org.<br />

* Install smoke and<br />

carbon monoxide<br />

detectors. Ideally, they<br />

should be placed<br />

throughout the house, but<br />

most definitely in the<br />

room where the fireplace<br />

is located. Check the<br />

batteries every spring and<br />

fall to make sure they're<br />

working properly.<br />

* Install chimney tops<br />

or shrouds. These small<br />

additions prevent debris<br />

and small animals from<br />

obstructing the chimney.<br />

Styles vary depending on<br />

the type of fireplace you<br />

have. To learn which style<br />

you need and to view the<br />

decorative options, visit<br />

LennoxHearthProducts.com.<br />

* Keep the hearth area<br />

clear. All objects<br />

(including people) should<br />

be kept at least 36 inches<br />

away from the hearth to<br />

prevent combustible<br />

material from catching<br />

fire. Also, never leave a<br />

fire unattended, especially<br />

if you have children or<br />

pets.<br />

* Fire screens are a<br />

must. It's best to use a<br />

mesh-style screen to<br />

prevent flying sparks and<br />

ash from burning or<br />

staining carpets or<br />

flooring.<br />

* Use the right<br />

materials and fuel. Choose<br />

well-seasoned wood that<br />

was cut 6 to 12 months<br />

earlier and stored in a<br />

covered location. Never<br />

burn Christmas trees or<br />

treated wood in your<br />

fireplace, and never use an<br />

accelerant other than<br />

newspaper and dry<br />

kindling (lighter fluid is<br />

meant for your outdoor<br />

grill only).<br />

For more information,<br />

visit the Burn Wisely<br />

section at epa.gov/<br />

burnwise.<br />

"Good chimney and<br />

fireplace maintenance is<br />

relatively easy," says<br />

Wetzel. "And when<br />

practiced regularly, you<br />

can enjoy your fireplace<br />

and create warm memories<br />

for many years to come."<br />

Home Improvement Projects That Increase Your Home’s Value<br />

Selling a home in<br />

today’s aggressive<br />

marketplace can be<br />

challenging. The good<br />

news is there are a few<br />

tweaks that can give<br />

homeowners a serious leg<br />

up on the competition.<br />

With the warmer<br />

months being the most<br />

active time of year to buy<br />

and sell real estate, it’s<br />

important to ensure your<br />

home is seen in the best<br />

light possible.<br />

“Despite the influx of<br />

homes for sale this season,<br />

the process of buying and<br />

selling a home can be<br />

simple, efficient and<br />

enjoyable,” says Wendy<br />

Froehlich of Homes.com,<br />

one of the nation’s top<br />

online real estate listing<br />

and lifestyle resources.<br />

According to<br />

Homes.com, the top five<br />

projects that improve<br />

home equity are:<br />

Bathrooms: If adding<br />

an additional bathroom<br />

isn’t an option, upgrade<br />

existing ones.<br />

Adding a dual vanity<br />

to a master or secondary<br />

bath improves<br />

functionality, allowing<br />

multiple people to use the<br />

space. Change out<br />

fixtures like faucets and<br />

shower doors to increase<br />

aesthetic appeal. If you’re<br />

on a budget, replace light<br />

fixtures or switch plates to<br />

help refresh the space.<br />

When working with a<br />

small space, highlight<br />

storage options with<br />

shelving and update or<br />

remove wall decor, paint<br />

or wallpaper.<br />

Kitchen: Kitchen<br />

renovations can cost<br />

anywhere from $20,000 to<br />

$40,000 and more. If<br />

that’s not in your budget,<br />

upgrading cabinetry and<br />

paint does wonders to<br />

liven up even the most<br />

outdated spaces.<br />

Add crown or<br />

decorative moulding to<br />

shape out the kitchen<br />

cabinets and modernize<br />

the space. Repaint<br />

cabinets, or add new<br />

hardware to add visual<br />

interest and brighten<br />

dark spaces.<br />

Outdoor Spaces:<br />

Curb appeal adds<br />

immediate interest to any<br />

home’s exterior. According<br />

to Remodeling Magazine,<br />

improving outdoor spaces<br />

can increase a home’s<br />

resale value dollar-fordollar.<br />

Frame the front<br />

walkway with items that<br />

add visual interest, like<br />

flowers, potted plants,<br />

large rocks of various<br />

sizes and solar-powered<br />

lights. If yard space is<br />

scarce, hanging plants are<br />

another great, low-cost<br />

option.<br />

Extend outdoor<br />

projects to the backyard<br />

— power-wash decks or<br />

patios and clean screenedin<br />

areas.<br />

Basement: Basement<br />

improvements can<br />

optimize livable space and<br />

protect the home from<br />

extreme weather, mold,<br />

moisture damage and<br />

mites. Whether<br />

transitioning the<br />

basement to a home gym,<br />

office or family room, the<br />

basics remain the same:<br />

insulate well and<br />

waterproof.<br />

Maximize space by<br />

including shelving and<br />

storage units. If the<br />

opportunity exists, make<br />

the space feel open and<br />

inviting by creating an<br />

open stairwell, a trick that<br />

visually connects the<br />

upper part of the house<br />

with the lower, and filters<br />

natural light into the<br />

space.<br />

M u d r o o m :<br />

Mudrooms ensure<br />

families stay clutter-free<br />

and have a dedicated<br />

space to drop stuff as they<br />

come through the door.<br />

They can also make<br />

potential homeowners feel<br />

welcome upon entry.<br />

While knocking out a<br />

wall to create a mudroom<br />

is expensive and laborintensive,<br />

you can make a<br />

drop zone’ by simply<br />

anchoring a bench to an<br />

empty wall and hanging<br />

labeled storage units.<br />

Making homes stand<br />

out in a sea of real estate<br />

listings isn’t always easy.<br />

It’s Easy to<br />

KILL YOUR BUSINESS<br />

Don’t Advertise<br />

Just pretend that you don’t have anything to advertise<br />

this week. Forget the thousands of items you have on the<br />

shelves of your store, or the service you have to offer...<br />

don’t let potential customers know about them. Now<br />

that’s a good way to KILL your business.<br />

Don’t Advertise<br />

Say you don’t have the time to fix up an advertisement<br />

this week. Just let opportunity after opportunity to<br />

promote your business pass by - it will take less of your<br />

time. And you’ll be less busy serving customers if they<br />

don’t know what you have to offer. Now that’s another<br />

way to KILL your business.<br />

Don’t Advertise<br />

Assume everybody in the trade territory knows what<br />

you have for sale, that you’ve been in business so long<br />

that you don’t need to advertise since the customers will<br />

come to you without it. Forget that there are new<br />

potential customers coming into the community, that<br />

you have new and better products to offer. Forget that<br />

you have Big City competition trying to attract more and<br />

more and more of your customers to their business.<br />

THAT’S A REAL GOOD WAY TO KILL YOUR<br />

BUSINESS.<br />

Don’t Advertise<br />

Tell yourself it costs too much to advertise - that you<br />

didn’t get enough out of it. Overlook the fact that<br />

advertising is an investment in selling - not an expense.<br />

Be sure you don’t provide for an adequate advertising<br />

budget for your business. IT’S A GOOD WAY TO KILL<br />

YOUR BUSINESS.<br />

...but don’t kid yourself, advertising pays...<br />

Tips For Buying A Home In Today’s Market<br />

If you’re considering<br />

buying a home, some<br />

experts think you should<br />

get a move on it. Interest<br />

rates are at 65-year record<br />

lows and national home<br />

prices have finally hit<br />

bottom and are on the<br />

rise. Despite what you<br />

may be hearing, loans are<br />

available for those with<br />

good credit histories,<br />

stable income and<br />

sufficient savings.<br />

But don’t jump right in<br />

unprepared. Whether<br />

you’re a seasoned buyer or<br />

a newbie, there are<br />

strategies that can help<br />

you throughout the homebuying<br />

process:<br />

Stick to Your Budget:<br />

Determining how much<br />

home you can afford<br />

depends on several<br />

factors, including your<br />

annual gross income,<br />

credit history, current<br />

mortgage rates and the<br />

amount of your down<br />

payment.<br />

In today’s market, you<br />

can expect: a down<br />

payment to generally be<br />

between 5 to 20 percent of<br />

the purchase price for a<br />

conventional mortgage.<br />

Lenders recommend that<br />

your mortgage payment<br />

(principal, interest, taxes<br />

and mortgage insurance)<br />

be less than 28 percent of<br />

your monthly gross<br />

income.<br />

Before looking for a<br />

home, consider calling a<br />

Department of Housing<br />

and Urban Developmentapproved<br />

housing<br />

counselor for free and<br />

confidential financial<br />

assistance.<br />

Avoid Borrowing<br />

Pitfalls: Unscrupulous<br />

lenders can damage your<br />

credit and cause you<br />

financial hardship. Here<br />

are some ways to avoid<br />

becoming a victim:<br />

• Say ‘no’ to easy money.<br />

Beware if someone claims<br />

that your credit problems<br />

won’t affect the interest<br />

rate. If a solicitation is<br />

really appealing, get it in<br />

writing and seek a second<br />

opinion.<br />

• Talk to several lenders<br />

to find the best loan.<br />

• Know if the loan<br />

offered to you charges a<br />

fee if you pay it off early.<br />

If it’s a requirement of the<br />

loan, ask about other<br />

products that don’t<br />

contain this type of<br />

penalty.<br />

• Ensure documents are<br />

correct and complete.<br />

Beware of anyone offering<br />

to falsify your income<br />

information to qualify you<br />

for a loan. Never sign<br />

documents that have<br />

incorrect dates or blank<br />

fields.<br />

• Ask for written<br />

estimates that include all<br />

points and fees. When you<br />

get to the closing table, if<br />

any fees or charges differ<br />

from what was previously<br />

disclosed, delay closing<br />

until all terms are<br />

understood.<br />

• If you’re taking equity<br />

out of your property, only<br />

take the minimum.<br />

Equity typically builds<br />

slowly over time, so it’s<br />

important to try to<br />

preserve it.<br />

• If you’re not sure, don’t<br />

sign! Get advice first from<br />

a reputable consumer<br />

credit counseling agency<br />

Know the Mortgage<br />

Process: Mortgages are<br />

financial commitments.<br />

mortgage may make a big<br />

monthly payments and<br />

To determine the best<br />

term for your personal<br />

situation and one that<br />

aligns with your financial<br />

goals, talk with your<br />

professional for guidance.<br />

intimidating, especially if<br />

homebuyer. Do your<br />

research, reach out to the<br />

professionals, stick to<br />

your budget and be sure<br />

you’re ready to take on<br />

responsibilities of being a<br />

or housing counselor.<br />

serious long-term<br />

Selecting the right<br />

difference in your<br />

overall cost of your loan.<br />

lender or financial<br />

The prospect of<br />

making such a big<br />

investment can be<br />

you’re a first time<br />

the<br />

financial<br />

homeowner.<br />
