he saying about thesilver lining in the cloudcould describe AngeloMs pathway to his musiccareer to a T. Hes asinger and songwriterwho performs on guitar,

mandolin, Dobro and harp. Hes also

a stellar example of one who makeslemonade from lemons and creates athriving second career later in life.

Today hes a respected Lancaster-area blues musician with a loyal localand national following and has foundhis niche in this second career. etransition from steelworker to musicianwasnt an easy one, but starting anothercareer later in life is something manypeople can identify with. ey also

identify with his folksy songs thatfeature a slice of Americana.Angelo M (his surname is Melasecca)

is originally from the Philadelphia area.e youngest of four boys, all of hisbrothers were teenagers before he couldwalk, so he grew up listening to themusic playing on their radios. Althoughno one else in his family really playedan instrument when he was growing up,

Angelos 94-year-old dad is a self-taught

harmonica player, who learned theinstrument later in his life. Dad alwayswanted someone to play the organ,he recalls. However, Angelo took aninterest in the guitar when he waseight-years old.

He worked in a steel mill for nearly30 years. With his pension ve monthsaway, he dreamed of a retirement thatincluded traveling and taking up long-forgotten hobbies that included playing

the guitar. e companys suddenbankruptcy meant not only the lossof his job, but also the pension. ecompany was bought out, and since ithad been a union shop, he and a numberof his co-workers could keep their jobsbecause of the contract, but they wouldhave to start over with their pensions.

I was 48 at that time. I liked my joband music was my hobby I played atsome local clubs. I really looked long and

hard at my life and what I wanted from

life. I really didnt want to start over

again. Many of my co-workers didnthave a choice, but I had the option ofmusic and it seemed to be the right timeto do something, he explains.

So he shifted gears and fell back onhis music. He not only stepped up hisperformance schedule, but he also beganwriting. With what I had been through,what else could I do but write a bluessong he says with a smile.

His wife, Jody Murphy, is also his

manager. e two share a love of music.ey met in the 90s at the PhiladelphiaFolk Festival. She encouraged him toexpand into writing songs as well asperforming. His guitar inuences comefrom legends such as Ry Cooder, Chet

Atkins, Duane Allman and Leo Kottke.Angelo started playing music

festivals and received a standingovation at Johnstown FolkFest. He wasdeemed One of the Highlights at the

Kalamazoo (MI) Blues Festival and was

selected from more than ve hundred

artists to perform at the Falcon RidgeFolk Festival (NY) Emerging

Artist Showcase.Festivals are awesome. ey book

so many entertainers theres musiceverywhere and theres so much energy.Its a great place to get a lot of experienceas a performer and to have fun doing it,he says.

And he says that Lancaster is anamazing place for music there are lots

of clubs and bars that oer live music.He credits the Lancaster DispensingCompany (known as DipCo by those inthe music scene) with helping boost hiscareer, and he returns there to performperiodically. I love playing small,intimate places you really get the feelof the audience, he says.

Hes performed several times onNational Public Radios River City Folk.

Angelo M.s music is featured in the PBS

Television series RoadTrip Nation, is

slated for an indie lm soundtrack and,

garnered songwriting honors in theprestigious Mountain StageNewSong contest.

His song, Every Kind of Blues, wasselected from thousands as a nalist inBillboards 17th World Song Contest andreceived a Gold/First Place in Blues inthe 27th Mid-Atlantic Song Contest.

His two successful self-released albums Far From Home released in 2005,and Steel Work, released in 2009

brought him to the attention of folks inNashvilles music scene, and hes signed acontract with Music City Veterans.

From Steel to Strings, his rstalbum with Creative and Dreams MusicNetwork, was released earlier this year,and Angelo says that during the next twoyears he will come up with music for twonew albums.

Creative and Dreams Music Networkis a team of music industry veterans

that focuses on emerging talent. Angelois excited about working with this teamand continuing to develop his music. Notonly has music provided some nancialstability and allowed him to explore hiscreative side, it has also helped both himand Jody realize the dream of traveling.Hes played venues in Portland, OR;

Virginia Beach; Atlanta; Kalamazoo, MI;Dewey Beach; and Beaufort, NC. HisEuropean debut was in Limerick, Ireland.

A music career forged by life

Hometown got me down, UncleSam came around fghtin or theCountry think I saw it on the evening

FAST FACTSAngelo is the ather o fve, The youngest is 20. He says that all o thechildren are into music and theyve all been super supportive andencouraging o his music career.

Perormers that inspired him As a child I remember that mybrothers listened to a lot o Elvis, so I was inuenced by his sound,he says. Angelo says hes a huge John Prine and Bonnie Raitt an their style o olk music inspired him.

What does he do prior to a perormance? Jody helps me get ready togo on stage. I try to relax as much as I can, but a bit o nervousnesswill never go away and thats good since it keeps me on my toes.His thoughts on being a musician or artist You do it because you enjoyit; theres not necessarily a lot o money in it. You have to be committedto your crat.Other interests: Periodically he teaches an electrical course atArcelorMittals Coatesville acility (ormerly the Lukens Steel acility).Hes also interested in renewable energy.

1. Early IRA

withdrawals and

401(k) distributions

Withdrawals from IRAsbefore age 59 1/2 are

generally subject to a 10

percent early withdrawalpenalty. However, this

penalty may be avoided if

substantially equal periodicpayments are taken from the

IRA based on life expectancy

for at least ve years, or

until age 59 1/2, whicheveris longer. The same early

withdrawal penalty generallyapplies to withdrawalsfrom 401(k) plans that are

made before age 59 1/2.

However, individuals whoare at least 55 years of age

when leaving a job can

begin to take penalty-freedistributions from a 401(k),

although federal and stateincome taxes will still be due

upon withdrawal.

2. Minimum IRA

distributions

Minimum distributions must

be made from Individual

Retirement Accounts (IRAs)by April 1 of the year after

individuals turn 70 1/2years old. Withdrawals

must begin by December 31

of this year and continueeach year thereafter. The

penalty for failing to take

minimum IRA distributions

is 50 percent of the amountthat should have been

withdrawn.

3. Timing of receiving

Social Security benets

Currently, you may elect

to begin receiving Social

Security benets as early as

age 62. However, you willreceive a larger payment

each month if you wait until

your full retirement age of67 (if you were born after

1959) and an even larger

monthly payment still if youwait until age 70 to begin

receiving benets.

4. Enrolling in

Medicare Part B

Currently, Americans areeligible to enroll in Medicare

at age 65. Once eligible,

though, you must enroll inMedicare Part B (which

covers outpatient servicesand doctors appointments)

within three months of your

65th birthday. Otherwise,a late-enrollment penalty

may apply that would

boost the premium amount

by 10 percent for eachyear thats delayed.

Note that thispenalty is waived

for individuals whomaintain health

insurance through anemployer (or a spouses

employer). However,it is retroactive ifenrollment is not

completed within therequired time frameafter this coverage

terminates.

Given the potentiallong-term nancial impact

of these and other decisions,

it may be advisable to seekprofessional assistance from

a nancial planner and/or

tax expert in making them.

Important

decisions forretirees andnear-retireesTe years immediately precedingretirement, and the rst couple of yearsof actual retirement, are a critical time forindividuals.

One o the mostannoying thingsabout being aBoomer is theadded worries,the addedconcerns, the

dded stuf that we have tohink about now. I understandhat with our added years

comes added lie to thoseears. And I do know therere details that have to be

considered with everything.e have jobs, mortgages, kids,

pouses, relatives and gymemberships. Were grown-ups.

But or Petes sake, just when

DID everything get so darnedcomplicated? And does it really

ave to be that way?

Im not talking aboutwanting to return to childhoodand only having homeworkto think about though,honestly, there are days whenthat is tempting. And Im nottalking about not having anyresponsibilities at all. Weve

always had responsibilities.And thats good because itsthose responsibilities that makeour lie richer. I understandthat. But somehow, to me, inour Baby Boomer years, ourresponsibilities have gottenbigger, more serious andmore intense.

ake or example, health.O course we are going to allhave more health issues aswe get older. But or many ous Baby Boomers, now is thetime when it really starts tohit the an. With each passingbirthday routine physical testsand exams get a little more uh physical. And that littleache, pain or bump is no longernecessarily just that little ache,

pain or bump that will go awayon its own. Now its a rupture,rip, break, or tumor ... needing

treatment, surgery, rehab andrecovery time.

Concerns or our childrenhave also gotten bigger. Toughat the time it didnt seem thisway, I remember when mychildren were small their liedetails were also really very

small, just like they were. Ocourse there were worries, butsomehow the worries seemedmuch simpler and much moremanageable then. I rememberas a young mother one o mybiggest concerns was makingsure I had a purple shirt readyor my daughter to wear onpurple day at preschool. Fastorward to the present and theteenage years and now I have tothink about sex, drugs and rockand roll. And thats just onthe internet.

Years ago problems with ourparents would climax aroundthe holidays when we had tocoordinate where we werevisiting and or how long.Whose turn is it this year? Ourbiggest worry revolved aroundhow we were going to make it

over the river and through thewoods on time without tickinganyone of. Now with agingparents we have to managescary health issues, ailingmemories, nursing homes, andtaking dads car keys away.

Te United States just had

a very important presidentialelection and most Americanswere seriously caught up in it.I was no diferent. I comparedboth candidates, I watched thedebates, I watched interviewsand I read a great dealabout them.

While gathering all thisinormation, it got me thinking

about how the issues thatare important to me now areprobably very diferent romthe ones I thought about in mytwenties. At the age o 50, whileconsidering the two candidates,my mind went to the economy,healthcare and social security. Ithought really hard about thiscountry, what we stand or andabout my childrens uture. Andyes, I worried about who ournext president would be. I spent

a tense election night with JaneDoe and some other Boomerswaiting or the results tocome in.

I was proud o my 50-year-oldsel or taking it all so seriouslyand or being knowledgeableo the issues. I then tried to

remember what I thought aboutduring my rst elections when I was in my late teens andearly twenties. Just what wentthrough my head during thosetimes? What was important tome then?

Ten I remembered aquestion that was asked duringthe MV Enough is Enough

political orum with PresidentBill Clinton (April 19, 1994)and I got my answer.

Amid questions about drugsand crime, Bosnia, violencein schools, and teen suicide,one question stood out: Mr.President, the worlds dying toknow: is it boxers or bries?

There are thousands of

people who anxiouslyanticipate the arrival

of winter. Armed

with gloves and

boots, these winter

enthusiasts cant wait to frolic

in the drifts of snow. Still, there

are many others who would much

prefer sipping tropical drinks on

sun-kissed beaches to freezing

weather and down-lled coats.

Once the temperature begins

to dip, fans of warmer weather

may begin the anxious dance

that is trying to nd a winter

travel excursion. While there are

some deals to be had, the clever

traveler is one who begins the

process as early as possible.

According to Clem Bason,

president of Hotwire Group, the

winter season is ripe with travel

deals. He oers that the rst few

weeks of December are the key

times to get the cheapest fares all

year long.

Tis is not the only secret to

winter travel. Follow these other

suggestions for saving on your

next getaway.

Book early.

I you know that each year you start toget antsy around the middle o winter,

then plan annual vacations around this

time. Make sure you request the time of

rom work and buy your tickets several

months beore.

Know peak travel dates.

Tere are certain times during the

winter when you probably will pay a

premium or travel. Te holiday season

tends to be the most expensive time totravel during the winter. Be exible with

travel dates, and you could see your rate

drop considerably i you travel just a day

or two later.

* Sign up or a hotel reward program.

Chain hotels requently ofer member

incentives. By signing up or a rewards

program, you can accrue travel points

that can be used toward hotel stays and

other benets. Being loyal to a particularhotel brand can help you collect

points aster. Plus, some chains ofer

nonadvertised deals specically to their

reward members.

Think about booking a package deal.

Many resort properties partner with

car rental companies and airlines to put

together packages. Packages may be less

expensive overall than booking each

individual element separately.

Look into alternative

accommodations.When planning a vacation, many

travelers turn to hotels or their

accommodations. However there are

other avenues or afordable rooms.

Web sites like Vacation Rental By Owner

(www.vrbo.com) enable individuals

with rental homes, condominiums or

timeshares to sublet their properties to

deal seekers. You may be able to nd an

afordable place at a raction o the cost

o comparable hotels in the area.

Consider a timeshare.

I you travel at the same time each year

and want a designated place to stay

without hassle, timeshares could be the

ideal situation. A timeshare is typically

an apartment in a resort property that

is jointly owned by people who use it at

diferent times. Sometimes it is possible

to trade timeshares among others so thatyou can vary or upgrade where you stay.

Still save with ski trips.

I youre not jetting of to the tropics but

in search o the perect powder, land a

deal by skiing at the beginning or end

o the season. Also, keep track o the

conditions at ski resorts. I the weather is

questionable, you can probably book trips

at a discount and avoid the crowds. I

you like the atmosphere o a ski town butdont really like to ski, book a trip prior to

the rst snowall when you can enjoy the

shops and the town without the hassle o

ellow tourists.

Check with your credit card company

about exclusive cardmember deals.

Credit card companies can ofer special

members-only deals on travel. Whatsmore, being a member o a warehouse

store like Costco or BJs could entitle you

to discount travel packages when booked

through their own travel centers.

Be fexible.

Some o the best deals to be had come

when you can depart at a moments

notice. I youre not hampered by

schedules, check out the last-minuteoferings o resorts and travel sites.

G hbetwinr

ravldals

Wintertime is a

season ripe with travelopportunities. Whether

youre escaping the cold

or ying directly to a

ski resort, employ some

strategies for getting the

best prices possible.

The ood cooked

during the holidays

is oten enough to

eed an army. Too

oten, hosts and

hostesses prepare

nd serve much too much ood,

only to fnd themselves let with

rerigerator ull o letovershen guests dont eat as much

s hosts had planned.

In order to avoid wasting ood,

any people attempt to create

ew meals rom their excess

oliday ingredients. Putting

etovers to good use can take a

ittle ingenuity to disguise the

eality that youre eating turkey

or ham or the third consecutive

ight. All it may take is a little

nspiration to create delicious

eals with repurposed

oliday oods.

e frst thing to keep in

ind when using letovers is

ood saety. Any ood remaining

ter the holiday meal should be

acked into storage containersnd rerigerated or rozen no

ore than 2 hours ater the

eal has ended. is ensures

hat bacteria are not able to

rolierate in the ood and

cause oodborne illnesses.

Choose shallow containers,

hich will enable the ood to

chill more uniormly and not

create warmer spots that takeonger to reach a sae storage

emperature. Do not save any

oods that have remained at

oom temperature or too long

or seem questionable, especially

dairy products. It is adviseable

o discard letovers (even i

erigerated) ater 4 days. Use it

or lose it!

What to do with all those

holiday leftovers

1. Turn stufng into croquettesor burgers by mixing choppedturkey with stufng or adding anew meat to the equation, likesausage.

potatoes and bake into a moistand delicious sweet potato loabread.

7. Create open-acedsandwiches or lunch bylayering ham or turkey, stufng,cranberry sauce and gravy ontop o a thick slice o bread.

8. Diced meats, vegetables andonion can be added to a batter

o pancake mix and turned intoan easy quiche.

9.Host Mexican night and useletover turkey meat to makespicy ajitas, complete with sourcream and salsa.

10.

Use stale bread to makehomemade croutons or salador use in a bread puddingrecipe.
