    5 ENTS WORTH by Grant Nichols Its A Matter Of Opinion...

    Guest ColumnistThreat To Our Democracy

    -by Bob Perry Justice Anthony Scalia got it right when he in his dissenting opinion This is a naked judicial claim to legislative - in-deed super-legislative -- power; a claim fundamentally at odds with our system of government. A system of government that makes the people subordinate to nine unelected lawyers does not deserve to be called a democracy. Todays decree says that my ruler, and the ruler of 320 million Americas from coast-to-coast, is the majority of nine lawyers on the Su-preme Court. The opinion in these cases is the furthest extension in fact - and the furthest one can even imagine - of the courts claimed power to create liberties that the Constitution and its amendments neglected to mention. This is a declara-tion that the Court has no right to make social decisions for the people of this great nation. For sure this is judicial activ-ism which is an act of tyranny. Unabated tyranny! Amending law and creating law not through the legislative process is tyr-anny! While some people are celebrating including dancing in the streets and sing-ing praises and others are plotting the next way to defeat the actions of the Court, our functions of government are being de-stroyed. This nation can fall and it is trip-ping over itself as it marches ever steady to elimination. Let us not forget that other acts of una-bated tyranny include legislative and ex-

    ecutive actions that are outside the powers given to those branches of government by our Constitution. Note that States Rights are being destroyed! As for the justices, they take two oaths of offi ce and it is more than evident that the opinions they have been giving are a refl ection of their personal education, experiences and opin-ions, which are violations of their oaths, and not purely constitutionally based. If anyone is a believer in the Constitution you have just received a major setback with the recent decisions handed down. Seems like the new ruler in our country is the Supreme Court and the social modifi -cations they are making for us absent of our elected representatives. The intent of the framers of the Constitution is not be-ing understood and time is overdue the start getting it right! On the other hand it may be too late. It needs to be noted that Chief Justice John Roberts exhibited an inconsistency in his reasoning by effectively redrafting the ACA (Affordable Care Act) by affi rm-ing the states with federal exchanges do get subsidies and insisted in the dissenting opinion in the same-sex marriage that the Supreme Court is not a legislature. As Americas favorite redneck Earl Pitts has always declared: Wake up America! And dont forget he always asked: You know what makes me sick? So wake up America and be heard!

    Schiappas Ready For A Great Steak Dinner

    Bradford Journal PhotoNick Schiappa and his son Uriah Schiappa, regulars at Togis Family Restaurant, look up for a photo, Monday, June 29th, before the main course is served. They tell us that while they opted for a steak dinner tonight, they especially enjoy the Italian dishes that are available there.

    Just as we collected most of our pho-tos found in last weeks paper at the Barcroft Pool and Callahan Park, this week we spent some time at Hanley Park collecting the same for this issue. This week, in addition, we have also in-cluded a few photos from around town, including two from the ever favorite To-gis Family Restaurant..Our read-ers should also know that over the past couple of weeks, we have linked two of our advertisers with their new Facebooks. The fi rst is Togis Sub Station, and the second is Tasta Pizza Bradford. In addi-tion we have also linked Tasta Pizza Brad-ford with its new web site. We recommend that users of our digital venues try these new links for themselves, to better take advantage of the offerings from these well known restaurants.This week we are running our July Fourth Independence Day Page which has been sponsored by the following local businesses, Worth W. Smith Co.; Tasta Pizza Bradford and Tasta Pizza Express; Bob Cummins Con-struction Co.; Bradford Fairway Sales & Leasing Lincoln Mercury and Dodge;, Burns & Burns Associates, Inc. Insur-ance Representatives; and Hedlund Glass Commercial Storefront Specialists Auto Commercial Residential. And while were at it, we should also mention the poem entitled Independence Day writ-ten by the late Erma K. Rook found on this page. Erma was a bookkeeper and re-ceptionist for many years at the Bradford Journal- one of Bradfords own Grand Old Ladies..Pennsylvania Gover-nor Wolfe and his administration sug-gested making more state money avail-able for our schools and eventually dropping the School property taxes all together. They also suggested a sensible method for paying for it: that of increas-ing the State Sales Tax, increasing the State income tax and establishing a new tax on extraction of natural gas. The fi rst two would mainly affect the highest in-come earners across the State, and the gas tax would affect only the oil companies. Now, as could be predicted, the opposition Party reworked the budget to include far less for the schools, saying that the Gover-nor was not acting responsibly and that the workers could not afford any increase in income and sales taxes (failing to mention the natural gas tax altogether). The truth is, though, that the workers as they put it, along with our large retired community with bare-bones incomes would hardly be affected by the Governors proposed in-come and sales tax increases, and could do well with a reduction or removal of school property taxes altogether. Instead, as most of our readers already know, the school tax is now about to be increased, whether the workers can afford it or not.

    BUSINESS & PERSONAL FINANCESMoney Management For The Boomerang Household

    -by Jason Alderman Due to recent economic realities, multi-generational living has been on the rise for many families. A 2014 Pew Research Center anal-ysis (http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2014/07/17/in-post-recession-era-young-adults-drive-continuing-rise-in-multi-generational-living/) showed that a record 57 million Americans, equal to a little over 18 percent of the U.S. popula-tion, lived in multi-generational family households in 2012 double the number in 1980. The major driver was young adults aged 25-34. According to Pew, nearly 24 percent of these older millennials lived in multi-generational households, increased from nearly 19 percent in 2007 and 11 per-cent in 1980. Its possible the boomerang family trend will remain in place for some time to come. For homeowner parents who may also be juggling the sandwich responsi-bilities of caring for older relatives, pay-ing attention to the fi nancial and behavio-ral details of taking in family is critical. Here are some suggestions to consider: Your fi nances come fi rst. Operating a full house means higher utility and food costs and additional wear and tear on the property. Taking in family also shouldnt derail a parents career goals or retirement planning, nor should it diminish other necessary fi nancial objectives like maxi-mizing savings or eliminating debt. Thats why dual- or single-parent households might begin with a complete fi nancial as-sessment before welcoming kids or elders back home. A discussion with qualifi ed fi -nancial and tax advisors might be worth-while to determine how much expense you can take on. For arrangements that go beyond free lodging to direct cash support of family members, gift tax issues should be explored. Make a real agreement. A home is sta-bility and therefore something of signifi -cant value. That is why it is appropriate to consider rent or request in-kind services in exchange for room and board. Young adults particularly those who were fully under parental support in college need to learn this important lesson even if they are moving home to save money to pay off loans, to buy a car or put a down payment on a home. Ask trusted advisors about what makes sense in your situation. If you decide to accept rent, know there are po-tential tax issues (http://www.irs.gov/tax-topics/tc415.html) based on the structure, timeframe and expenses related to such an agreement. Legal paperwork may be required, but there also may be rental ex-penses you can deduct. Establish timelines. In the real world, fi nancial arrangements are rarely open-

    ended. Depending on the fi nancial, tax and legal advice you receive as well as lo-cal tenant law and personal preferences, you may be signing an offi cial lease for your family members stay with a specifi c timeline of months or years. Whatever the requirements, make sure you have an ef-fective framework that sets specifi c fi nan-cial and behavioral rules you want met. Start with a family meeting. Before moving trucks arrive, family members should meet for a discussion about the im-pending move. Start by letting your child or family member talk through why they want to move in, whether they have fi nan-cial goals tied to the living arrangement and how long they plan to stay. Share the structure you envision, including the payment details you would consider. No matter how agreement is struck, it should begin with a full discussion of needs, pref-erences, fi nancial terms, and most of all, ways to make the arrangement successful and smooth. Once the move happens, reg-ular conversations should continue about the living arrangement. After all, boomer-ang families have unique, ongoing fi nan-cial issues that will require discussion. Prepare to track expenses. Once agreed, retrofi t your household budget to keep track of higher food, utility and re-lated expenses for cost-sharing and poten-tial tax purposes. Having people you love living with you will hopefully have many rewards that go beyond simple dollars, but always know what the arrangement is costing you. Bottom line: Opening your home to re-turning family members is a real fi nancial commitment. Think through money, tax and household issues before you say yes.

    Update for Route 219 Pennsy Bridge Closure

    Travelers can access Ridgway businesses using Route 219

    (Ridgway, PA) The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation is advis-ing drivers that the Pennsy Bridge on Route 219 in Ridgway, Elk County re-mains closed. The bridge was closed Thursday, June 18 due to a construc-tion-related incident. PennDOT continues to review de-tours and vehicle movement on those detours. The following detours remain in effect: Northbound traffi c will continue to follow the detour that was being used for the Pennsy Bridge project. That de-tour is: Route 219 truck bypass at the top of Boot Jack Mountain, to Route 120 west to Route 1014 (Osterhout Street), then returning to Route 219 north. Only northbound traffi c will be able to access and use Route 1014 (Os-terhout Street). Southbound truck traffi c will be re-quired to follow a detour beginning in Johnsonburg. Southbound trucks are to exit Route 219 in Johnsonburg and fol-low Route 255 south through the city of St Marys. Trucks will then follow Route 948 north through the village of Kersey and then intersect with Route 219 south near the village of Brandy Camp. Southbound passenger vehicles may continue to use Route 219 south from Johnsonburg into Ridgway. With tem-porary signals in place, PennDOT is al-lowing two-way passenger vehicle traf-fi c on Osterhout Street (Route 1014). This means that southbound drivers can use Route 219 and Osterhout Street to get to their Ridgway area homes or other local destinations in and around Ridgway. Route 219 northbound (North Broad Street) between Main Street and Erie Street in Ridgway will be open to local traffi c only. No through traffi c will be permitted on this section of Route 219. PennDOT continues to analyze infor-mation from material samples taken at the bridge. Analysis will help PennDOT make decisions regarding construction pro-gress on the bridge.

    AICR HealthTalk-by Karen Collins, MS, RD, CDN

    American Institute for Cancer Research Q: Ive heard that fl axseed can help lower blood cholesterol, but Im worried that it could pose breast cancer risk. What does current research say about this? A: The latest research shows that consuming fl axseed does not increase risk for breast cancer. At one time, there was concern that fl axseeds lignans, classifi ed as phy-toestrogens could raise the risk of breast cancers that are fueled by high levels of es-trogen. Now studies show that although lignans chemical structure is like estrogen, they dont act like estrogen in the body. In fact, research indicates fl axseed may be protective, especially in post-menopausal women. It seems to decrease cell growth, in-crease self-destruction of abnormal cells and shift estrogen metabolism to less cancer-promoting forms. As for heart health benefi ts, some studies do show that including four level table-spoons of ground fl axseed daily may lower LDL (bad) cholesterol and blood pressure, although we need more research to understand who benefi ts and how much is needed. Flaxseed does provide other valuable nutrients: it is concentrated in dietary fi ber and contains the plant form of omega-3 fat known as ALA (alpha-linolenic acid). An additional benefi t bacteria in our gut convert fl axseeds lignans into compounds with antioxidant effects. Do check with your doctor before beginning daily fl axseed if you take fi sh oil or EPA + DHA supplements or anticoagulant medicine. Also, if you are undergoing can-cer treatment, discuss potential use with your care providers. If you take any prescrip-tion or non-prescription medicine, be sure to take fl axseed one hour before or two hours after to avoid blocking absorption of the medicine. Finally, if youre considering daily fl axseed, note that four tablespoons of ground fl axseed contain about 150 calo-ries. Substitute it for some other food to avoid undesired weight gain, which would raise risk of both heart disease and cancer.

    How To Create An Outdoor Oasis (NAPSI)Wow your friends and families at gatherings, pool parties or barbecues in your backyard by creat-ing your own outdoor oasis. Build.com and Donny Osmond have teamed up to share 10 surprisingly easy and afford-able ways to turn your backyard into a great space for both relaxing and enter-taining.

    Stay Cool: Umbrellas are a great source of shade, whether in a backyard or front yard. Theyre easy to move to a favorite spot, come in different sizes, and let you create an enjoyable space to spend time in.

    A Colorful Approach To Plants: Plant-ing in containers is an easy way to add variety and splashes of color to your outdoor space.

    Light Up The Night: Brighten up those dark, hard-to-navigate areas of your deck or patio with solar accent lighting. Its generally affordable, easy to install, and the end result looks terrifi c. It may also be a bright idea to put lights and lanterns up around exterior doorways.

    Good Clean Fun: If you live near a beach, river or lake, dont worry about tracking sand indoors. Simply install an outdoor shower.

    Beauty Is In The Details: Small ac-cents, such as hurricane lanterns, light-weight throws and ceramic garden seats, show guests you know how to live the good life...outdoors.

    Cool It: If you have a covered porch or deck, a fan or fan-and-light combi-nation can make staying comfortable during warm days easier. Just be sure to get an outdoor one with a DC motor or one thats Energy Star rated. Theyre 60 percent more effi cient than conven-tional fanlight units. An online how-to guide at Build.com can make installa-tion a breeze.

    Water-Saving Fountains: Build.coms popular fountains all recycle water so you can keep your fountain going even during dry seasons or droughts.

    Make Sure You Have Enough Seat-ing: Whether wicker or wood, canvas or chrome, grouping comfortable, easy-to-clean chairs and benches such as those in the Donny Osmond collection around a garden table is key for parties, brunches and barbecue fun.

    This May Floor You: An outdoor rug is a terrifi c way to defi ne a space and

    give your lounge area a little warmth when the night air cools. Build.com of-fers a vibrant selection of rugs.

    Look Online For Inspiration: To start decorating your outdoor area, check out the entire Donny Osmond Home acces-sories line at www.build.com

    Your Post-Baby Confidence (NAPSI)If any of the nearly 4 million babies born in the United States this year is yours, congratulations! Looking Good Now, heres more good news: You can still feel trendy, fabulous, comfort-able and in control during swimsuit season. One reason is that a company known worldwide for fashion fl air coupled with full-comfort control has created a swimsuit suited to new moms. Instead of trying to hide post-pregnancy prob-lem areas under baggy cover-ups and umbrellas, you can step out in a Mira-clesuit. Says Mommy Digger blogger and mother of two, Brynn: Ive never been this happy with how I look in a bath-ing suit...It fi ts my body wonderfully, curves and all, and gives me the confi -dence to hit the pool with my girls and have a great time. The luxury swimwear collection promises to make you look 10 pounds lighter in 10 seconds, and can be found in most specialty and better department stores as well as select online sites.

    SENIOR INFORMATION PAGEHave A Conversation About Long-Term Care Insurance With Your Parents

    (NAPSI)The next time you look back at the many years your parents cared for you, consider the possibility that they may require care themselves someday. Long-term care insurance can help ensure that your parents will get the care they need, should there come a time when they require help managing some of the activities we associate with independent living. Millions of Americans require long-term care during their lifetime,* which includes assistance with simple tasks like bathing, eating and dressingtriv-ial things we do every day without a second thought. In reality, the type of care needed to provide assistance with these activities can be expensive and

    is generally not covered by traditional health plans or Medicare. Should the need for long-term care arisewhether its assistance to per-form activities of daily living or su-pervision due to a severe cognitive impairmentits likely to be provided by a family member or friend. Unfor-tunately, this may not be an ideal op-tion, with many families living far apart from each other. And, your parents may not be willing to place that burden on you or even a close friend. The good news is, they are eligible to apply for coverage under the Federal Long Term Care Insurance Program (FLTCIP). Encourage Your Qualifi ed Rela-tives To Plan Now The best time for your family mem-bers to consider long-term care in-surance is long before they need it. Because the FLTCIP is medically un-derwritten, its important for your qual-ifi ed relatives to apply when they are in good health to avoid the risk that a future illness or condition may prevent them from obtaining coverage later. Also, premiums are directly related to age. This means the younger people are when they apply for coverage, the low-er their premium. You may wish to consider applying for coverage as well, as a way to help secure your familys future. With bene-fi ts designed specifi cally for the federal family, the FLTCIP offers a smart way to help protect your savings and assets should you or your loved ones need long-term care services someday. Many members of the federal family are eligible to apply for coverage un-der the FLTCIP, including federal and U.S. Postal Service employees and an-nuitants, as well as active and retired members of the uniformed services. Certain family members, or qualifi ed relatives, are also eligible. Qualifi ed

    relatives include your spouse, domestic partner, parents and parents-in-law, and adult children. For a complete list of who is eligible to apply, visit www.LTCFEDS.com/eligibility. For personalized assistance, call 1-800-LTC-FEDS (1-800-582-3337)/TTY 1-800-843-3557 to speak with a program consultant. They are available to answer any questions you may have and can walk you step by step through the plan design and application process. Register For An FLTCIP Webinar If you or your qualifi ed relatives would like to learn more about the FLTCIPs comprehensive benefi ts and features, register for one of their up-coming webinars or view their existing library of on-demand topics at www.LTCFEDS.com/webinar. More About The FLTCIP

    Established by an act of Congress in 2000 and overseen by the U.S. Offi ce of Personnel Management, the FLTCIP is designed to meet the specifi c needs of the federal family. The FLTCIP pro-vides industry-leading benefi ts and of-fers fl exible options that allow enrollees to tailor coverage to meet their needs. Certain medical conditions, or com-binations of conditions, will prevent some people from being approved for coverage. You need to apply to fi nd out if you qualify for coverage under the FLTCIP. The Federal Long Term Care Insur-ance Program is sponsored by the U.S. Offi ce of Personnel Management, of-fered by John Hancock Life & Health Insurance Company, and administered by Long-Term Care Partners, LLC.
