In the above left photo is a single sedan traveling through Wooster’s Public Square in 1942. In the background can be seen the original Wayne County National Bank building adjacent to the William Annat Co., which was destroyed by a tornado in the 1950s, as well as a sign in front of the soldiers

monument listing the names of area residents serving in uniform in World War II. In the above right photo is a current view of Wooster’s Public Square. The Rubbermaid store is now in the William Annat Co., building. Located in the Wayne County National Bank plot is a PNC bank.

Local News January 11, 1913, witnessed the birth of “Mr. Sausage.” Measuring 57 feet and requiring 4 gallons of meat to fill its casing, the link was created at the home of Harvey Bowersock in Chester Township. Bowersock made the meat, while George Greenameyer of Fremont, Ind. turned the crank; Squire Smith attended the stuffer horn; and Alice Bowersock of Montrose, Calif., and Mrs. Harvey Bowersock provided the measurement. January 18, 1949, an experiment in pigeon control was under way at the courthouse, the Wooster Daily Record reported. There, custodian Ray Bills placed a long-horned barn owl in the tower room in an effort to persuade the birds to “hunt other homes.” The owl, which was about 18 inches tall with a wingspan of about 32 inches, was trapped by friends of Bills’ who operated a game breeding preserve. “He is a husky bird and could make trouble for

bigger game than pigeons if he chose to do so,” the Daily Record reported. Judging by his lack of appetite, the owl, which was tethered to the tower by a string, was not pleased with his assignment. January 25, 1949, Lester Miller of Wooster was “dangerously near death” in Kinney and Smith Hospital after being run over by a truck. The day before, Miller who was part of the East Ohio Gas Co.’s 30-member pipeline gang, was returning home after a day’s work in Prairie Township. When the large truck carrying the men came to a steep hill, many, including Miller, jumped off and walked up the grade. At the top of the hill, they jumped back on. Miller, however, lost his hold and was thrown beneath the wheels. Miller, who initially was believed to have been crushed to death, suffered two fractures of the pelvis and a fracture of the upper jaw. Still, he was believed to have a good chance for recovery.

How to Shorten the Duration of a Cold

F

ew things can be as uncomfortable as the common cold. In their book “Common Cold,” authors Olaf Weber and Ronald Eccles say the common cold has been around since the ancient times. More than 200 virus strains can contribute to colds, but the rhinovirus is the most common. Colds produce a bevy of symptoms, including runny nose, congestion and sore throat, so it should come as no surprise that sufferers want to find relief fast. Colds typically last for a week or more. While there’s no cure for the common cold, according to The Mayo Clinic, there are some remedies that can help cold sufferers feel better more quickly. • Rest: One of the best things to do when you have a cold is to get adequate rest. Your body’s immune system is working overtime to combat the cold virus, and restricting activity can help it direct efforts where they’re needed most. Keep away from strenuous activities, and spend more time relaxing or sleeping to let your body do its job. • Hydration: Consuming plenty of clear fluids can reduce congestion and ensure that you do not get dehydrated. Plus, warm beverages can be soothing to an irritated throat. Avoid coffee, caffeinated sodas and alcohol, which can exacerbate dehydration. • Saline rinses: Intra-nasal saline sprays, neti pots and similar products can help loosen mucus that is clogging the nose and sinus cavities, allowing it to flow out. This makes blowing your nose more effective and may help prevent post-nasal drip. Avoid prolonged use

of medicated decongestant sprays. They may work well, but they can cause rebound congestion that’s worse than the original stuffiness. • Vitamin C: Vitamin C will not prevent colds, but it could help in other ways. Taking vitamin C before the onset of cold symptoms may shorten the duration of symptoms. Vitamin C also may provide benefits for people at high risk of colds due to frequent exposure, offers The Mayo Clinic. • Soup and tea: Soup is an easy-to-digest meal that provides many of the necessary remedies for a cold, including warm broth to hydrate and soothe, antioxidantrich vegetables and protein to help fuel the body’s recovery process. In 2000, Dr. Stephen Rennard of the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha actually tested if chicken soup clinically makes people with colds feel better. He found that chicken soup inhibited neutrophils, immune cells that cause congestion. Decaffeinated tea also may help you stay hydrated and relieve many cold symptoms. • Reinfection: Use cleaning products that are effective at killing viruses around the house to prevent reinfection and cold relapses. Also, avoid touching your nose, eyes and mouth between hand-washings to keep germs at bay. Colds can be a nuisance. Most medicines will help relieve symptoms but cannot make colds go away faster. Natural remedies can help the body’s immune system work at its best and lessen the severity of a cold.

the window displays are switched out, at this point the purchaser will be called and told they may pick up their merchandise. When items are brought to Friendtique they are sorted, cleaned and priced at reasonable rates. They may be categorized into groups such as clothing, crafts or seasonal home decor. All clothing is washed and sorted into seasons at which point the off season clothing is placed into storage rooms. After everything is situated, the items are then priced. The prices of the items found within Friendtique reflect between half and a third of the item’s value. Executive Director, Dawn Schirm explained that it is “important to make money, but not disrespect the donor by giving the items away”.

Complete or create your fine dining collection.

A handful of employees and an army of volunteers work within Friendtique and make the operation possible. Anyone can volunteer to work at Friendtique, all sorts of skills and any length of time is appreciated. Hands and hearts are needed to sort through the items that are delivered to the store. While most of the items coming through the doors are in prime condition there are some that have been slightly damaged, people are needed who can make minor repairs. Donating their time to the boutique is their way of giving to Hospice and Palliative Care. Many of these volunteers feel they can give more to the hospice through their work than they ever could in a monetary value.

Maintain your wardrobe with the lastest styles at affordable prices.

Several businesses in the area have acknowledged the importance of Friendtique and have donated their services as well. Wooster Motor Ways donates a box truck and two men once a week for Friendtique to pick up large items such as furniture. This simple act of donating a truck saves Friendtique thousands of dollars each year. Pine Tree Barn and Runions will donate beautifully made pieces of furniture containing slight imperfections. Ray Crow completes all the dry cleaning needs Friendtique has without charging a dime for his services. Each one of these businesses have found a way to provide needed services to Friendtique that in turn benefits our residents. Friendtique has been a respected and celebrated business within our community since 2005. Their influence has extended beyond Hospice and Palliative Care and has grown to include organizations such as Every Woman’s House, The Red Cross and Goodwill. They are located at 223 W. Liberty St., Wooster. They are open Monday through Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information call 330262-2012 or visit www.friendtique.org.

Preston & Lorie Winn Story & Photo by KATE MINNICH WRITER & DESIGNER

T

he relationships we choose to maintain define our personality and impact the quality of life we lead. For Preston and Lorie Winn, it is their relationship that has gotten them to the present day. Their love for each other has ensured they are constantly looking after the well being of the other. When one of the pair falters the other is present to hold the pieces in place. Meeting through a pen pal service, Lorie and Preston became fast friends. At the time Preston was living in California while Lorie lived in Millersburg. Both had other pen pals, one of Lorie’s was only about two hundred miles from where Preston lived in California, but there

was something different about their relationship. They had been communicating with each other for roughly a year when Preston moved to Ohio. Coming together from two separate paths, Preston and Lorie found common ground in their love for country music. Preston had spent time in the Navy during Vietnam and was part of a crew who evacuated Saigon. Once out of the Navy, Preston worked manual jobs that took a toll on his ankle and knee joints. Lorie competed in the Special Olympics as a child and had the honor of meeting Charlie Daniels through her success. In their adult lives they both enjoyed listening too and reading about country music. The pair moved forward in their relationship as if they had known each other their whole lives. Believing firmly that people know when they are ready to get married, Lorie says she felt it was time to marry Preston and the two were married less than a year after he relocated to Ohio. Preston and Lorie have been married for twenty-two years and though those years have been riddled with hard times, the two have stuck by each other’s side. For Preston and Lorie it isn’t about how they handle the good times, their success as a couple comes from their reactions to the hard times. In 2009, Lorie saved Preston’s life through her quick thinking and inovation. Preston had injured himself at their home and fell unconscious as a result. Lorie knew Preston needed to stay awake at least until the paramedics arrived so she did the first action that came to mind. She gathered up rags and clothing to cover the wound. Next she filled a pan with cold water and threw it on Preston. Lorie then sat and spoke to Preston, making him speak back in an effort to keep him awake and alive. All the while Lorie massaged Preston’s chest with the heel of her hand encouraging his heart muscles. Preston needed to be resuscitated several times in route to the hospital and doctors believed his likelihood of living to be slim. When Preston slipped into a coma, Lorie was beside herself with how to wake him. Then the thought struck her. Preston had one cassette that


he listened to all the time, Alabama’s “Angels Among Us”. Rushing home, Lorie collected a boom box and the cassette and hurried back to the hospital. As the cassette began to play, Lorie pleaded with Preston to stay with her, to listen to the song and follow it back to her. The song began and only a few phrases in Preston’s hand lifted to Lorie’s face. All she could do was cry. When the doctor entered the room his face looked as if he had seen a ghost. Preston was sitting up in bed and talking to Lorie, something the doctor had not expected to see. The doctor proclaimed that Lorie had saved Preston’s life through her actions at their home.

and Lorie have vowed “toPreston never go to bed angry so as to

avoid lingering resentment or hurt feelings. Despite their own ailments Lorie and Preston offer their aid to each other every day of their lives. Their dedication to one another is shown in the way they communicate and spend each day. Lorie is deaf in one ear and blind in one eye which can make communication difficult. There are times Preston and Lorie will have an entire conversation through sign language. The two have found the alternative language to be an entertaining means of communication and take delight in sharing new words and phrases. Communication can be hard at times, but Preston and Lorie swear their marriage would suffer without the action. Without communication there is no way for one to know what the other is thinking. They believe that even angry feelings should be expressed so any wrong can be corrected; giving each other the silent treatment is not helpful to build resolution. Preston and Lorie have vowed to never go to bed angry so as to avoid lingering resentment or hurt feelings. Preston suffers from Parkinson’s disease and Lorie takes it upon herself to see to his needs. Often times food is served in small cups that require the use of fine motor skills that have been all but destroyed by Parkinson’s. Lorie will often feed Preston to ensure the food reaches his mouth. Preston and Lorie’s mobility has changed over the years, driving them closer to each other. It used to be the couple would enjoy biking to see friends and relatives in the surrounding area. Now Preston is seated within a

wheelchair due to ankle and knee injuries. Lorie relies on a cane to feel what is in front of her and to maintain her balance. Preston and Lorie have adjusted to their situation, instead of riding bikes, Lorie pushes Preston in his wheelchair. The chair helps Lorie maintain her balance and Preston is able to move around with relative ease. “She is beautiful to me”, Preston says in regards to Lorie. The ability to see the beauty in each other is but another reason the two have been able to enjoy a successful marriage. They acknowledge the positive actions of their partner and revel in the life they share together. Sometimes, the biggest impact you can make is on the person to whom you are the closest. To hear Preston and Lorie tell it, they are the happiest couple simply because they have each other. Individually their lives have been riddles with the sadness of loss, failed relationships and illnesses, but together they have conquered everything set within their path. Preston and Lorie Winn live together in the Holmes County Home where they spend their days looking after each other. On any given day they can be found writing letters to various pen pal friends across the country or speaking to one another. Their lives are happy ones simply because the other is present.

Now & Then • Page 16

Texas Chili Spice Mix Makes 1 cup *2 *2 *6 *4 *4

tablespoons guajillo chili powder tablespoons chipotle powder tablespoons ground cumin tablespoons dry Mexican oregano tablespoons sweet paprika

Combine all the ingredients in a medium mixing bowl. Transfer to a covered container and store in a cool, dry place.

Directions: Combine all the ingredients for the chipotle cream — except for the zest — in a food processor. Process until evenly incorporated. Remove to a medium bowl and fold in the zest. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Mix the Texas Chili Spice Mix with the oil to make a paste. Dust the skirt steak with salt, then baste with the paste. Marinate for 1 hour and then grill over high heat to medium rare. Set aside and allow to rest. In a large, heavy-bottom pot, render the diced bacon until it is crispy. Add the onions, green peppers and garlic, and sauté until slightly brown. Add the tomatoes, brown sugar, oregano, chili powder, tomatillos, flour, and chipotle. Heat for 3 minutes, or until the mixture begins to thicken. Add the beef broth, bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer. Simmer uncovered for 1 hour. Cut the steak against the grain into small cubes. Add the steak and beans to the chili, and simmer for an additional 20 minutes. Add most of the chopped cilantro and serve over crushed tortilla chips with a dollop of chipotle cream and a sprinkling of fresh cilantro on top.


Winter Vegetables Servings: 12

Ingredients: *3

medium turnips, peeled and cut into strips *1 large rutabaga, peeled and cut into strips *4 medium carrots, cut into strips *3 broccoli spears *1 tablespoon butter *1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley *1/2 teaspoon salt *1/2 teaspoon dried tyme Pepper to taste

Directions: Place the turnips, rutabaga and carrots in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, cut florets from broccoli and save for another use. Cut broccoli stalks into strips; add to saucepan. Cover and cook 5 minutes longer or until vegetables are crisp-tender; drain well. In a large skillet, saute vegetables in butter. Stir in the parsley, salt, thyme and pepper.

Espresso Scented Coffee Cake Ingredients: *8

tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled and diced, plus more for the pan *2 cups all-purpose flour *2 cups light brown sugar *1 teaspoon cinnamon *3/4 cup pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped *1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder *3/4 teaspoon baking soda *1/2 teaspoon salt *1 cup buttermilk *1 egg, at room temperature *1 tablespoon instant espresso dissolved in 1 tablespoon hot water *1 teaspoon vanilla extract Confectioners’ sugar Creamy Espresso Glaze *3 tablespoons milk, plus more if needed *1 1/4 teaspoons instant espresso powder *3 ounces cream cheese at room temperature, broken into small pieces *1/3 cup confectioner’s sugar

Espresso Glaze Directions: In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk and espresso powder until the espresso has dissolved. Add the cream cheese. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the mixture until blended, and then gradually beat in the confectioner’s sugar. The glaze should be smooth and thin enough to drizzle over the coffee cake. If too thick, thin with a teaspoon or more of extra milk.

Servings: 8- 10

Coffee Cake Directions: Arrange a rack at center position and preheat the oven to 350°. Butter the bottom and sides of a springform pan and then cut a sheet of parchment paper to fit the bottom of the pan. Place the paper in the pan and then butter the paper. Butter the sides and bottom of a ramekin and place, right-side up, in the center of the pan. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, brown sugar and cinnamon. Add the diced butter and rub the mixture between your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs. Remove 3/4 cup to a small bowl and add the chopped pecans; set aside. Add the baking powder, baking soda and salt to the large bowl with the flour mixture and stir to combine. In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, egg, dissolved espresso, and vanilla and then stir them into the dry ingredients just until well blended. The batter should be quite thick. Ladle half of the butter into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle half of the nut mixture over the batter. Repeat with the remaining batter and nut mixture. Place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until a tester inserted into the area around the ramekin comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool the cake to room temperature, about 45 minutes. Then run a sharp knife around the inside and outside edges of the pan to loosen the cake. Gently remove the ramekin. Dust the cake with confectioner’s sugar, drizzle the glaze over the top, and serve.

Things to Consider Before Downsizing Your Home

O

nce their kids have left the nest, many men and women over 50 begin to consider downsizing their homes. Downsizing to a smaller home can be beneficial for a variety of reasons, including less home to clean and maintain, more affordable utility bills and lower property taxes. But the decision to downsize is rarely black and white, and men and women often struggle with that decision. Perhaps the most difficult part of the decision of whether or not to downsize to a smaller home concerns the sentimental attachment many homeowners, especially those with children, have to their homes. The home might be too big for your current needs, but it also was the same place where your son took his first steps and where your daughter lost her first tooth. Saying goodbye to a place that was home to so many memories isn’t easy. But there’s more than just sentimental value to consider when deciding whether or not to downsize your home after the kids have grown up and moved out. PERSONAL FINANCES Your financial situation merits significant consideration when deciding if the time is right to downsize your home. If your retirement nest egg is not as substantial as you would like it to be, then it would seem as though downsizing to a smaller, more affordable home is a great opportunity for you to start catching up on your retirement savings. But that’s only true if your new home won’t incur any additional expenses that are already taken care of in your current home. For example, your current home may be fully furnished, while a new, smaller home may require you to buy all new furniture because your existing items simply won’t fit. The cost of such furnishings can be considerable. If you plan to move into a condominium, you can expect to pay monthly homeowners association fees, and such fees are often substantial. So while the condo itself might be smaller, the additional expenses associated with the property may end up making the smaller home more expensive and prevent you from saving more money for retirement.

REAL ESTATE MARKET There are seller’s markets and there are buyer’s markets, and ideally you would like to sell your home in a seller’s market. But keep in mind that this might be the same market in which you hope to buy a new home. The nature of the real estate market depends on a host of factors, including geography. If the city or town where you currently live is in the midst of a seller’s market and you are planning on moving to a location where buyers have the upper hand, then now might be a great time to move. But if you currently live in a buyer’s market and hope to move to a seller’s market, then you may end up paying a steep price, even when downsizing to a smaller home. Things may even themselves out if you want to downsize to a smaller home within your current community, but do your homework nonetheless, researching the time of year when you’re most likely to get the most for your home and find the best deal on your next place. The advantage men and women considering downsizing have is that they are rarely in a rush to move out of their current home and into their next one. This gives them ample time to make the real estate market work for them. SPACE How much space do you really need? Once the kids have moved out, couples may feel like all of that extra space is going to waste. But that can be a knee jerk reaction, and upon a more thorough examination of the space and your needs you may just find that you can put all of that extra square footage to good use after all. If you have always wanted your own art studio, then now might be the perfect time to make that a reality. Always wanted a room devoted to home theater? Get to work on converting your basement from an all-purpose game room to your own private movie theater. If, after considering the space in your home, you find that the extra square footage really is just upkeep you aren’t especially interested in doing, then you would no doubt like a cozier home that’s less of a responsibility to maintain. Downsizing a home is something many men and women over 50 consider after their children have moved out. Such a decision is rarely easy, so homeowners should take as much time as they need before making a final decision to move or stay put.

Movie Minded Story by KATE MINNICH WRITER & DESIGNER

W

ith the release of Star Wars:The Force Awakens, and the buzz about a revival of Ghostbusters, we may wonder about originality in the movie industry. It seems that there is always at least one movie at the box office with a familiar ring to its plot line or title. Does this mean the movie industry is out of ideas? Perhaps not, the remaking, rebooting and revival of movies results in some change whether it is to the plot or character line up, but a perfect balance must be met for companies to prove advantageous in the endeavor. The release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens was both anticipated and looked upon with trepidation. Many fans of the original Star Wars favored the idea of a new addition to the series, but they were worried about the integrity of the movie due to new ownership. At the movie’s end, many left the theater happy, but certain that the next installment would decide the quality of this new trilogy. Why wasn’t The Force Awakens alone able to decide the fate of the franchise? The movie followed a similar plot line of the original trilogy. The followers of the Darkside had built a new Deathstar, this one bigger and better than the first, but in simplistic terms, still a massive space station designed to take over the universe. The Rebels were still in existence and a battle ensewed to destroy the Deathstar in hopes that good would prevail. Not to mention a Jedi comes into their powers and has to go find a fellow Jedi in order to be trained. Han Solo, Chewbacca, Princess Leia and Luke all made

Remake, Reboot and Revive

an appearance. It can be assumed the franchise used the familiar plot and characters to welcome viewers back, giving them a taste for what they remember while introducing what is to come. With the next Star Wars, fans will be looking for a new plot line and further development of the new characters. Star Wars: The Force Awakens was able to attract hoards of patrons willing to stand in long lines due to the high volume of interest in the original Star Wars series. The individuals who grew up watching Star Wars, now have children of their own interested in the new addition. Parents enjoy being able to share the movie going experience with the whole family and thus are more willing to attend familiar titles. In the case of The Force Awakens, the revival of a well-known and celebrated franchise has returned to the delight of the general populace and captured the attention of another generation. Other remakes will maintain the same plot line, but substituted actors and actresses. Oceans 11 underwent a character line up adjustment in the 2001 reboot and went on to produce two sequels. The original 1960 movie stared Frank Sinatra (Danny Ocean), Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr., just to name a few. Sinatra, Martin and Davis were famous singers, each appearing separately and together in many movies. Their names were well known at the time. In the 2001 reboot, George Clooney was cast as Danny Ocean who gathered fellow thieves and con artists


portrayed by actors such as Brad Pitt and Bernie Mac. The new main characters were some of the most recent heartthrobs of the movie industry. By 2001 the original 1960’s Oceans 11 had fallen from general knowledge. This finessed style of movie had been replaced in the action world by others of its kind with more advanced theatrics and technologies. No longer brothers from military days, the group of men brought together for the 2001 reboot would showcase special skills of a different set. The purpose of such a reboot may seem like a lack of an original idea, but people still went to see the movie in theaters. The general populace had forgotten the original version making the idea seem fresh. If the audience doesn’t like a movie, it will fall from memory and won’t make money. For this reason there have been movies being revived in an effort to recreate interest. One such example is the movie Alfie. Originally released in 1966, Alfie was based on a stage play and offered many of the popular asides a stage character may complete. Michael Caine was cast as the character of Alfie who was portrayed as not having any care for the feelings of others, even going as far as to sleep with his friend’s wife. The movie also focused on many social taboos of the time such as having children out of wedlock and going through an abortion. By the end the character of Alfie acted as if he may change his ways because he felt lonely. This wasn’t exactly a feel good movie most are looking to enjoy. In 2004, the movie was remade with the actor Jude Law as Alfie and small changes to the plot were underwent. The character of Alfie was still a womanizer, but the asides were less insulting than in the 1966 version. Most of the women who were portrayed in the 2004 movie were given their own characters even though they only appeared on screen a couple of times. The social taboos that had been blatantly crossed in the 1966 movie were down played in the 2004 rendition. Alfie slept with his friend’s girlfriend instead of wife and when the woman ended up pregnant she refused to have the abortion. Alfie as a character was made more likable from the start, and while the movie did not soar in popularity, the ratings of the 2004 version were higher than the 1966 movie. Achieving the correct balance between an audience’s happiness and a complete remake of a movie is a constant burden on any movie producer’s mind. In any remake the question of what needs to be remade and what should stay the same is an important conversion. In the case of Star Trek, it was well known that the original

cast and plot could not be easily replaced. Beginning as a popular television series, Star Trek had a healthy group of followers who’s numbers have continued to grow into the present day. Ten years after the final episode of the television series, the original cast starred in the first Star Trek movie, The Motion Picture, in 1979. Arguably, these were the first movies and television series that really explored the possibility of other life forms and intergalactic travel. To say the least, the franchise captured the attention of many minds both young and old. When talk of a remake surfaced it was quickly realized that replacing the original cast would be difficult. The line between character and actor was not a distinction many fans were willing to acknowledge. Rather than fight a risky battle, the production staff decided to employ two defense mechanisms that would allow for a successful movie while hopefully appeasing original Star Trek fans. Instead of continuing the original Star Trek story line, producers began again with the idea of time travel. After an enemy of Spock’s travels through time he kills Captain Kirk’s father while Kirk is still within his mother’s womb. This causes an entirely different life for Captain Kirk and allowed the movie a bit more wiggle room. The new time line of events made it easier for fans to accept the new actors and actresses within Star Trek, but as a bonus Leonard Nimoy, the original Spock, plays a role in the movie. All in all, the Star Trek franchise was protected by using a theme that fit well with both the original television series and movies. The remake of Star Trek carried original fans into the present day with a new installment and pulled in new fans. Then there are other movies being created from popular television series as a conclusion and final farewell for fans. The science fiction series Firefly was put on television arguable before its time and only lasted one season. Rather than simply going off the air, the series completed their final send off in the form of the movie Serenity. While the movie may not have been the ending fans were looking for, it left them with a greater sense of finality than the final episode of a season. Is the movie industry out of original ideas? Perhaps, but there is no way to know. The remakes, reboots and revivals playing in theaters have been known to receive a good audience. In part this is due to the interest created by the original films and the actor and actresses employed. Audiences are more likely to see a movie that is associated with a fond memory than one they know nothing about, making the production of completely new works a higher risk to produce.

Explaining 401(k) Fees

M

any men and women are aware of the importance of retirement planning, and that awareness leads many to enroll in employer-sponsored 401(k) programs. When perusing their quarterly statements, men and women may notice they’re being charged certain fees, which can add up over time, prompting some investors to wonder just what they are paying for. INDIVIDUAL FEES: Individual fees may or may not be charged each quarter, as these fees are typically only instituted when the account holder initiates certain processes, such as taking out a loan on his or her 401(k). Such actions incur fees, and it’s important that investors know just how much those fees are before taking any actions with regard to their accounts. INVESTMENT FEES: Investment fees, sometimes referred to as investment management fees, tend to be the most expensive fees. These are the fees you are paying the company who handles your 401(k) to manage your funds, and they typically are assessed as a percentage of assets invested, meaning the more your 401(k) grows, the more you will pay in investment fees. These fees are automatically deducted from your investment returns. ADMINISTRATION FEES: Typically noted as plan administration fees on your quarterly statements, administration fees are the costs associated with the day-to-day operation of your plan. Record keeping, accounting, legal and trustee services are all paid for under the umbrella of administration fees. Account holders now get more bang for their bucks with regard to administration fees, which typically cover electronic access to plan information, daily valuation and online transactions in addition to the services that have been provided for years. When considering fees associated with their 401(k) retirement plans, it’s important that investors recognize these fees will escalate as their investment returns increase. Recognizing that and budgeting for such fees is an important part of retirement planning.

Joke Corner TIE JOKE On the day of a big job interview Fred woke up late. Frantically he threw on a suit. “OH NO!” he thought, “My Dad is out of town and isn’t here to help me, and for the life of me I do not know how to tie a tie! Fred grabbed a tie and ran out the door. “Excuse me sir,” he said to the crossing guard, “I have an important job interview, can you please help me make this tie?!” “Sure” said the guard, “just lie down on this bench.” Well if someone was going to help, Fred

wasn’t going to ask questions. After he finished and the tie looked good Fred just had to ask why he had to lie down. “Well in my previous job I learned how to tie tie’s on other people when they were lying down.” He replied. What was your previous job? Fred asked incredulously. “I ran a morgue.” Was the reply. -GreatCleanJokes.com
