Planetarium to receive $650,000 for NASA work

oungstown State University’s Ward Beecher Planetarium will receive $650,000 in funding via a NASA cooperative agreement to support the development of full-dome video and 3D animation materials that will be distributed for free to planetaria across the globe. “YSU and the staff of the planetarium are thrilled and honored to be a part of this project that will help educate and entertain people worldwide,” said Patrick Durrell, YSU associate professor of astronomy and director of the planetarium. “Our participation in this project is a clear indication of the Ward Beecher Planetarium’s national reputation as a respected and notable science facility.” The YSU funding is part of an $11.5 million, five-year NASA Cooperative Agreement with Southern Illinois University Edwardsville. SIUE will expand its citizen science and educational activities through CosmoQuest, an online virtual research facility inviting the world to join in exploring the Universe. CosmoQuest is led by project director Dr. Pamela Gay, assistant research professor in the SIUE Center for STEM Research, Education and Outreach. It brings together scientists, educators, and software developers from eight collaborating institutions and numerous additional partners. CosmoQuest launched in 2012 as a second generation citizen science site designed to bring the public the kinds of opportunities often only found in brick and mortar universities. Programs ranging from science projects to science classes, and from planetarium shows to online seminars have been brought to life in CosmoQuest’s virtual hallways. Beyond science, CosmoQuest will leverage its online presence to provide planetariums and Science on the Sphere™ facilities new, creative commons licensed content that they can use and remix. Called “Projected Science,” this collaboration with YSU and Lawrence Hall of Science (LHS) will create an online repository of data visualizations. “The central goal of CosmoQuest is to bring science to the people, and to get them involved,” Durrell said. “One of the best ways to do that is through the many planetaria throughout the world.” YSU’s association with CosmoQuest dates to 2012 when the Ward Beecher Planetarium produced its first full-dome 6 METROMONTHLY.NET | APRIL 2016

planetarium movie called “Cosmic Castaways.” The following year, the planetarium partnered with CosmoQuest to make available full-dome images of telescopes on the summit of Maunakea free-of-charge (as part of a creative commons license) to other planetaria across the world. The NASA award is a continuation and expansion of that work, Durrell said. Ward Beecher will now produce videos and images chronicling “citizen science” projects that will be developed by members of the CosmoQuest team, which also includes Planetarium engineer Curt Spivey. “With this funding, CosmoQuest will be able to grow from a seedling full of potential, into a mighty tree that supports science and learning opportunities,” says project principal investigator Gay. “We are bringing new partners with added expertise, and we couldn’t be prouder of this team.” With the funding, YSU plans to hire a content designer to create the videos and images, as well as a student to assist, Durrell said. The funds also will be used to upgrade the planetarium’s computing facilities and to purchase a new high-resolution full-dome video camera system. Other organizations involved in the grant include the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, InsightSTEM, Interface Guru, Lawrence Hall of Science, Johnson Space Center, McREL International, the Planetary Science Institute, and McDonald Observatory.

Young Philanthropist Fund awards $4,000 to 2 groups The Young Philanthropist Fund (YPF), a component fund of the Community Foundation of the Mahoning Valley, awarded a total of $4,000 in grants to two local organizations, Potential Development and the Boys & Girls Club of Youngstown. Potential Development will receive $3,000 to purchase social emotional curriculum materials for their pre-school students, while the Boys and Girls Club was awarded $1,000 to purchase furniture for the new Learning Center at the Club. “Potential Development is excited to be a recipient of the Young Philanthropist grant. The funding will enable us to help preschool age children learn social /emotional skills that they can carry with them throughout their lives. The support of the students and Community Foundation of the Mahoning Valley is greatly appreciated,” said Paul Garchar, executive director of Potential Development. “The award from the Young Philanthropist Fund assists in helping our organization to possess adequate resources to provide top notch programs for our club members”, said Germaine McAlpine, executive director of the Boys & Girls Club. “The Boys & Girls Club of Youngstown is a youth development organization that is very grateful for this investment in expanding our mission of helping our members to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens.” Potential Development provides children with autism a safe, structured educational environment with caring, supportive services that give its students the necessary skills and independence to lead a productive life. The Boys and Girls Club of Youngstown was established in 1946 to provide programs and services in a safe, supervised environment and to inspiring all young people in the community to realize their full potential as caring, productive and responsible citizens. The Young Philanthropist Fund was established in 2006 to introduce young

professionals to philanthropy and prepare them for their role as our valley’s future philanthropists. The YPF advisory committee consists of members of the G.I.V.E.S. Committee of the Mahoning Valley Young Professionals. The YPF is supported through proceeds from the 25 Under 35 Awards and donations from individuals and businesses. The Community Foundation of the Mahoning Valley seeks to enhance the quality of life for residents and future generations of the Mahoning Valley by managing donor assets, distributing grants and advancing philanthropy and good works. The foundation and its affiliates hold nearly $54 million in assets and distributed more than $2 million in grants in 2015.

New real estate closing disclosures: know before you owe

he Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) now requires that new integrated mortgage disclosures be used when residential real estate is purchased or refinanced. These disclosures are part of the sweeping federal “Know Before You Owe” law, created under the DoddFrank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. This law applies to most residential loan applications made after October 3, 2015. What is TRID? The new integrated mortgage disclosures are commonly called TRID (TILARESPA Integrated Disclosures). These disclosures combine the preliminary Truth in Lending (TIL) disclosure, the final TIL disclosure, the loan servicing disclosure, the Good Faith Estimate (GFE) and the HUD-1 Settlement Statement into just two new forms. What are the two new forms? The two new forms are the Loan Estimate and the Closing Disclosure. They are designed to help consumers more easily understand important loan terms and give them a better opportunity to shop for services. What is the Loan Estimate? A consumer must receive the Loan Estimate within three days after making a loan application with a lending creditor. The Loan Estimate provides easy-to-read information about the interest rate, monthly payments, escrows for taxes and insurance, prepayment penalties, adjustable rates and closing costs. It is not necessary to sign an official loan application form before receiving the Loan Estimate, as long as you’ve given the creditor

the address of the property, the loan amount you are requesting, basic income information, the estimated property value, your name and your Social Security number. Can the creditor charge me fees when I make a loan application? No, but you may be charged for the costs to obtain a credit report. The creditor cannot collect any other fees from you until you’ve received the Loan Estimate. What do I do after I receive the Loan Estimate? Compare the terms on all the Loan Estimate forms you receive from different creditors so you can determine which loan is the best fit for you. Once you have decided, you will notify the chosen creditor that you intend to proceed with the loan. What happens after I tell the creditor I want to proceed? The creditor will begin the loan approval process, obtain a real estate appraisal and order a property title examination. What is the Closing Disclosure form? The Closing Disclosure tells you all the final figures and amounts for your closing, important contact information for the creditor and service providers, the interest rate, monthly principal and interest, origination charges and a calculation of the cash needed to close. The creditor must give you the Closing Disclosure at least three business days before your closing. Must Closing Disclosure fees and charges match those on the original Loan Estimate?

PROTECTING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION ■ I’ve been reading about data breaches affecting consumers. What can I do to protect myself? While there is no foolproof way to prevent the loss or theft of your information, you can take these steps to manage the risk: limit what you share; know what is done with your information; monitor your financial records; check your consumer credit report regularly – three or four times a year; report suspicious activity; and don’t ignore notification of data breaches.

8 METROMONTHLY.NET | APRIL 2016

Generally, yes. The creditor cannot change certain loan charges, such as the origination fee, the appraisal fee, the credit report fee, or fees for other services you cannot shop for. What fees and charges can change? Charges for escrows of real estate taxes and insurance, credits from the seller, and additional items discovered during a property walk-through can change as long as you receive an updated Closing Disclosure before closing. The creditor must provide new disclosures and start the service time over if there are any increases to APR (annual percentage rate), the loan product changes, or a prepayment penalty is added.

■ How do I limit what I share? When providing any information online, assume that nothing will remain private. You should assume the worst: once you provide your personal information to others, it will no longer be private. While there is no way to remain truly anonymous when sharing your personal information, you can protect yourself by limiting what you share. For example, think twice before posting vacation pictures online: you are advertising the fact you are away from your home. Likewise, when shopping online, consider what information is really necessary to complete a transaction and provide only that data. Also, look out for pre-checked

Will the new disclosures delay my closing? It is still too early to tell. For now, most creditors recommend that purchase contracts allow approximately 45 to 60 days between loan application and closing so that creditors can comply with the new law. Can I waive the Closing Disclosure requirement and speed up the process? Yes, if there is a real emergency. Creditors cannot let you waive the Closing Disclosure requirement unless you meet very specific conditions. Can the seller and my Realtor see my Closing Disclosure?

option boxes that may result in unwanted advertisements and increased sharing of your information. As a rule, share only the minimum information required to complete the task. ■ How do I know what will be done with my information? Remember that, once you turn over any information, online or otherwise, you no longer control what happens to it. Social media posts, website registrations, Internet shopping orders and online information services all require, or at least request, your personal information. Some information is necessary for the experience. For example, when ordering a product

No. The Closing Disclosure contains confidential personal and non-public information about you and your loan terms. Most closing agents use a supplemental closing form (the ALTA Closing Statement, which contains all the charges and fees from your official Closing Disclosure, but omits all confidential information about you and your loan terms). What if something changes after closing? The creditor must give you a corrected Closing Disclosure if the original Closing Disclosure becomes inaccurate because of a change to an amount you paid, or if a clerical error is discovered. The creditor has 60 days to issue an amended Closing Disclosure and refund any overcharged fees. Do the new integrated mortgage disclosures apply to all loans? No. Creditors must use the new integrated mortgage disclosures for most loans used to purchase or refinance residential real estate that will be used as the consumer’s primary residence. The new disclosures are not required for home equity loans, reverse mortgage loans or loans secured by mobile homes or dwellings not attached to real estate.

The law of 47 states (including Ohio) and the District of Columbia requires parties that hold or process personal information to notify those affected by a data breach in certain circumstances. Some businesses also provide notification of a breach even when the law does not require it. If you receive a breach notice, do not ignore it! The notice means there is a real possibility that your personal information has been compromised or, at least, that it is at risk. Read the notification closely, and if you have questions, follow up with the party that provided the notice. The letter you receive should provide contact information. The communication may offer you free credit monitoring or similar services. You should consider taking advantage of the offer, but you should carefully review the terms on which the service is offered. Several of the credit-monitoring services require you to waive certain rights and remedies, although not all do. Finally, you should even more diligently review all of your account, medical insurance and other records to look for suspicious activity or transfers. ■ Where can I turn for help? Both the Federal Trade Commission and the Ohio Attorney General have made identity theft an enforcement priority. If you suspect that your personal information has been lost or used to steal your identity, you can contact those agencies at the following locations: Federal Trade Commission, Eaton Center, Suite 200, 1111 Superior Ave., Cleveland, Ohio 44114; phone: 216-263-3410; or Ohio Attorney General, Antitrust Section, State Office Tower, 30 E. Broad St., Columbus, Ohio 43215-3428; phone: 877244-6446. You also may lodge your complaint with the FTC online at www.Identity Theft.gov. You also should consult an attorney to learn your full rights and options. This “Law You Can Use” consumer legal information column was provided by the Ohio State Bar Association.

Listen to yourself, learn, and move forward In my mental health practice, clients often are fearful of making the wrong decision. But the worst scenario is not to decide. All of our decisions lead us to where we need to go next.

BY MARILYN BURNS METRO MONTHLY CONTRIBUTING WRITER

hen I was asked to write an article on health and wellness for women, I began to think about the challenges women face to get and stay healthy. Women are notorious for taking good care of others. In fact, many women define themselves by how well they care for their home and family. In my mental health practice, clients often are fearful of making the wrong decision. But the worst scenario is not to decide. All of our decisions lead us to where we need to go next. Life is really simple. I think we are divinely guided to know what’s right and wrong. Our body and our minds will tell us. However, it takes courage, strength and determination to make decisions based on what we are learning about ourselves and to apply what we know to be true. In life, once you learn that things weren’t what you were hoping for, why conclude that it was a wrong decision? Why carry that experience forward in a negative way? Instead, why not be grateful for what you learned and apply it. How can anything we learn be wrong, when we are learning something new? It’s necessary to gather all information in order to move forward properly. Once you apply what you learned, you move forward with insight, experience and wisdom. And things begin to go right! As a counselor, I’ve treated thousands of women who have struggled mentally, physically and spiritually. I’ve treated my share of wounded warriors: those affected by infidelity issues in their relationship; those not knowing how to manage stress; those unwilling to do what’s necessary to change their life; and those not using the wisdom and insight to know how to move forward. These are women who have been hurt by others and freeze-frame the experience for years. Some will sabotage their own happiness so they won’t be hurt again. These are women who are not growing through their life experiences; they are getting stuck on them. I expect my clients to take responsibility 10 METROMONTHLY.NET | APRIL 2016

in my office.ÒWhat did that decision teach you?Ó ÒAre you willing to apply that insight somehow, and, if so, what is your plan and when will you begin?Ó

for their sense of well-being. By that, I mean to take charge of their own mental and emotional needs, to get as healthy as possible, and to not wait for someone to do this for them! A mistake many women make is to expect too much from their partners to feel better and to wait too long for it to happen. I often hear things like: when my kids leave home, when I lose 25 pounds, when my in-laws move out, when my husband gets a better job. Those are the times when many women predict they’ll feel good. However, we will be too damaged if wewait. Instead, if we are mindful of caring for our needs and not waiting for it to happen in the future, we will be on our way to a healthy lifestyle, regardless of our age. Mindfulness is a word that I use often

I feel it is our birthright to be happy and healthy. Why not use the divine guidance – the powerful insight and wisdom that can be gained in the moment to lead us? No need to worry, just follow the lead that you get in the moment – good, bad or indifferent. Use these experiences wisely and often. And don’t ignore the elephant in the room: That pain in your left side; the joints that ache; the discomfort that you get around certain people, places and things; the gut feeling when you aren’t sure if your spouse or child is telling you the truth. You’ll smile and laugh more and you’ll walk with confidence once you apply what you learn every day and make the moment work. That’s when a sense of well-being and happiness is experienced. Relationships are more joyful and meaningful. Striving to be the best version of yourself is a wise choice. Do it for you! Mother Teresa wisely wrote, “Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough; give the world the best you’ve got anyway. You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God; it was never between you and them anyway.” Marilyn Burns is a licensed professional clinical counselor with a private practice in Boardman.

It opened in Youngstown in 2011. This year’s event chairwomen Carole Weimer of Youngstown and Annette Camacci of Poland worked alongside a volunteer committee to raise funds for the Cancer Society. “In 2015, the Tri-County Cattle Baron’s Ball raised $90,000 for your American Cancer Society,” said Camacci. “The money that is raised through this event funds research, educates our community and funds programs and services such as ‘Road to Recovery,’ which provides rides for patients going through treatments right here in the valley. We were very pleased and grateful to have been so successful.” This year’s evening will include gourmet dining, live and silent auctions, music and activities. WHOT’s A.C. McCullough and Kelly Stevens will be the master and mistress of ceremonies for the evening. Brooks Ames will be the auctioneer. This event is made possible through the support of event sponsors Something New Floral/ Joe Mineo Creative, Nautilus, Stairmaster and Star Trac. The event is still seeking sponsors.

Q&A

What to know about health insurance and 1095 forms

I’ve been hearing about these 1095 forms lately. Can I expect to get one? Large employers (with 50 plus full-time employees) will send each of their employees an IRS Form 1095-C. If you work full time for a larger employer, you will get this form. On it, you must report if you were offered health insurance and if you accepted it. If you are self-employed or work for a small company and you have health insurance, you may instead get a Form 1095-B. You might get both a “C” and a “B” version of the form. If you got health insurance through Healthcare. gov, then you will get a Form 1095-A. What do I do with the form once I complete it? These forms do two things: they (1) report to the IRS if you satisfy the “individual mandate” to have health insurance and (2) determine whether you are eligible for a premiu0m subsidy. Most people who get a 1095-C aren’t eligible for premium subsidies. Form 1095-A reports premium subsidy information. If you get a Form 1095-A, give it to your tax preparer. If I’m doing my own taxes, what do I do with the Form 1095-A? On the back of your Form 1040, you will see a checkbox for “full year coverage” for everyone who may be listed on your tax return. If everyone had health insurance for the entire year, you simply check the box. If not, you’ll need to complete the questions on Form 8965 to explain why someone didn’t have insurance. What should I know about open enrollment on Healthcare.gov for 2016? When you apply for coverage on healthcare. gov, you have to estimate your income for 2016. Based on that, you may get offered a premium subsidy. But, when you file your 2016 taxes you have to “true up” your estimate with what actually happened – you may get more subsidy or you may have to pay some of it back. We are finding that a lot of people are requesting more subsidy than they are entitled to (on the tax return) and end up paying it back. You might want to talk to your CPA to help you get an estimate income number. Remember that all kinds of income, even certain tax exempt income, count for the premium subsidies, and more income means less subsidy. My employer insurance is really expensive. Are there any other options for me or my family? You can always go to Healthcare.gov to get insurance. You won’t get premium subsidies if your employer offered you coverage (assuming you’ve been offered affordable, minimum-value coverage). However, your family might be eligible for premium subsidies if your employer does not offer coverage for family members. The Healthcare. gov coverage prices are based almost exclusively on age. If you are relatively young, the price you are being asked to pay for employer coverage may be higher than the full price you would have to pay through Healthcare.gov. Also, if you are comfortable with higher-deductible coverage, you may be able to save money by purchasing coverage through Healthcare.gov. This column was provided by the Ohio State Bar Association.

Prevent Blindness urges women to protect vision ata from the Prevent Blindness study, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Future of Vision: Forecasting the Prevalence and Costs of Vision Problems,â&#x20AC;? found that women make up the majority of the 4.4 million Americans age 40 and older who are visually impaired or blind. Prevent Blindness has designated April as Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eye Health and Safety Awareness Month in an effort to educate women about their higher risk for vision loss as well as what they need to know about their eyes. The following are five things women should know about vision and eye health: â&#x2013; More women than men are at risk for vision loss from eye diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma and macular degeneration. to the Prevent Blindness According National Eye Institute, more than 3 million has designated and more April as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s women than 1.5 million men have dry eye.

Women often make the majority of their familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health care decisions. In addition to being responsible for their own health, women are often responsible as caregivers for the health care choices of their children, partners, spouses and aging parents. A woman making her vision health a priority positively impacts those around her, including those that depend on her care. â&#x2013; Keeping a healthy lifestyle also helps keep the eyes healthy, including exercising regularly, not smoking and following a healthy diet. Talk to a dietician about eating habits and a doctor before starting an exercise program. Make sure to always wear UV eye protection when outdoors. â&#x2013; Pregnancy can cause vision changes including refractive changes, dry eyes, and puffy eyelids. Expectant mothers may also experience vision effects from migraine headaches, diabetes and high-blood pressure. Glaucoma medications such as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors can be harmful to the developing baby. All pregnant women should discuss all medications and any changes in their vision immediately with their doctor. â&#x2013; Prevent Blindness recommends periodic dilated eye exams as the best way to ensure that vision is healthy and to help keep it that way. Additionally, a dilated eye exam can also help detect other conditions that affect overall health including high blood pressure or diabetes. Prevent Blindness created the program, See Jane See: Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Healthy Eyes Now, to provide free education and resources on these topics and many more to help women better understand vision issues that are unique to them. The web page also features a section written by leading experts on topics from eye safety to the importance of routine care. To help support these efforts, OCuSOFT ÂŽ Inc., a privately-held eye and skin care company dedicated to innovation in eyelid hygiene and ocular health, has agreed to donate 10 percent of all online sales during Aprilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eye Health and Safety Awareness Month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Above all else, the most important message we want to send is that first step for everyone, no matter what age, is to get a complete eye exam by an eye
