ASK A GRANDKID

Grandparents have questions. Grandkids have answers. By Katie Hammond

What exactly is Minecraft and why won’t my grandkids talk about anything else? Since its release seven short years ago, Minecraft has taken over the digital world to become the third most popular video game in history, with over 100 million registered users. Minecraft isn’t so much a game as it is a virtual world players inhabit and control. You can build anything, go anywhere, do anything. Every player’s map is oneof-a-kind and infinite in size. There are animals, hidden villages, towering mountains, vast cave systems, and dense jungles. Its universal appeal and cross-generational popularly (along with staggering toy and merchandise licensing) led Microsoft to purchase the game for a cool $2.5 billion (yeah, with a “B”) back in 2014. If you have a chance to play with your grandkids, be sure to watch out for the “creepers”!

What is are some fun TV shows I can stream with my grandkids? If your grandkids are younger (under age 12), I would suggest “Star Wars: The Clone Wars.” This animated series is immensely popular among kids and adults or basically anyone into light sabers, Jedi Knights, and the mysteries of the Dark Side of the Force. The main characters are Star Wars heroes ObiWan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker. You should be aware that there is some

very mild animated sci-fi violence (ships battling in space and light saber duels) which might scare young children, and the characters are sometimes in peril, but time this is an animated show made for kids. And every episode features positive messages about honesty, morals and teamwork. If you have older grandkids, you should definitely introduce them to Neil Degrasse Tyson’s “Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey” from FOX. Using cool special effects, Tyson

explains the nature of our universe while revealing the fascinating historical background of important scientists and their discoveries. Tyson leads the show from the bridge of his own personal “Spaceship of the Imagination.” The producers of “Cosmos” won an Emmy for their efforts. Where can take my grandkids for a weekend outing? Surprise your grandkids with a trip to the Arcadia Retrocade. Located in the Evelyn Hills Shopping Center in Fayetteville, this is a throw-back video game arcade which is great for people of all ages. The owners have lovingly refurbished dozens of original arcade game classics like Donkey Kong, PacMan, Asteroids, Frogger, and Qbert. In an interesting twist, the games are all free to play, but there is a modest $5 cover charge. But you can stay and play all day long!

movies

Baby it’s cold outside, so here are some classic movies streaming online via Netflix and Amazon Prime to enjoy this winter.

2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

Amazingly, in 1966, Neil Simon had four shows playing in Broadway theaters at the same time: ‘Sweet Charity’, ‘The Star-Spangled Girl’, ‘The Odd Couple’, and ‘Barefoot in the Park’. The latter arrived in movie theaters just a year later. The comedy paired Robert Redford as a serious lawyer and Jane Fonda as his free-spirited bride, as they cope with one another and their tiny New York City apartment.

Stanley Kubrick’s strange and wondrous vision of the distant past and distant future isn’t for everyone. There is very little dialog and the music is haunting. Yet this is also the film which stars the murderous Hal 9000 computer and his human counterpart, Dave, as they investigate strange alien monoliths orbiting Jupiter. Considering the vintage, this one is worth watching for the creative (pre-CGI) special effects alone.

To Catch A Thief (1955)

The Seven Year Itch (1955)

Alfred Hitchcock’s high-profile heist movie set in the French Riviera stars Cary Grant as a reformed jewel thief who quickly falls under suspicion for a series of cat burglaries committed in his style. He soon encounters Grace Kelly, who is vacationing with her mother. But their budding romance is placed in jeopardy when Kelly’s jewels are stolen, and Grant must go on the lam to ferret out the true thief in order to clear his name and get the girl.

Many film buffs and pop culture aficionados know this movie for its famous shot of Marilyn Monroe standing on a subway grate when her white dress is suddenly blown into the air. But during the other hour and 44 minutes of the film, this romantic comedy places Monroe in the apartment above married Tom Ewell, a man in his seventh year of marriage who understandably falls for his beautiful upstairs neighbor.

A RADIO SHOW JUST FOR US

Cleopatra (1963)

Starring: Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton Directed by: Joseph Mankiewicz

If you are looking for historical accuracy, then this probably isn’t the film for you. But if you enjoy a flashy, star-studded blockbuster, then Elizabeth Taylor’s 1963 portrayal of Egyptian queen Cleopatra might be the epic you’re looking for. This big budget classic features Richard Burton as the Roman general Marc Anthony, whose on-screen chemistry with Taylor was fueled by a real-life off-screen romance.

Join us Saturday mornings at 9am on KFAY-AM NEWS TALK 1030 as we discuss senior living, lifestyles, health, fitness and much more.

Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid (1969)

Starring: Paul Newman, Robert Redford

Paul Newman and Robert Redford actually switched roles in preproduction and the result is one of the best outlaw-buddy films in the history of cinema. As members of the Hole in the Wall gang, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid rob trains, blow up stuff, and generally try to stay one step ahead of the law. Written by the legendary William Goldman, the movie features the witty dialogue and action scenes which made it a classic.

‘Tis the Season... To Understand Gifting By Collier Moore, Elder Law Attorney, RMP, LLP

During the course of the holiday season, people often engage in various types of gifting transactions. This is often due to pure generosity, but on occasion other factors may also be driving the types and amounts of year-end gifts. Because of the popularity of year-end gifting, it is important to have a general understanding of how tax rules will treat these gifts. 14 Better Way Senior Living


I. Tax Rules for Gifting The starting point to understanding the tax rules of gifting is this: All gifts are considered taxable gifts unless there is an exception that can be applied. The policy for considering gifts taxable is relatively easy to understand once you think through it. Because we currently live in an environment where there is an estate (death) tax, gift taxes are imposed to prevent the situation where an individual could give away a substantial amount of wealth during his or her lifetime. Without the existence of the gift tax, lifetime gifting could otherwise minimize the estate tax. The implementation of the gift tax ensures

may be a popular tool for grandparents who desire to assist grandchildren with educational costs. Utilizing this exclusion may also preserve the $14,000 exclusion that can be used to benefit these same grandchildren during the same tax year. However, it should be noted that the tax code is clear in its use of the word “tuition.” The exclusion is not available for payment of items such as room and board, or books. Further, the exclusion is not available as a component of reimbursement for expenses of tuition that have already been paid. This means that in order for the exclusion to apply, the payment must be made

has a tax credit in the amount of $5.45 million. Simply put, so long as the total lifetime taxable gifts is less than $5.45 million, then a gift tax would not be payable. II. Charitable Giving Another common form of end-of-year giving involves gifts to charities. During the holiday season, there are several opportunities to make donations to various organizations in our community. This type of giving is often coupled with seeking an itemized deduction for income tax purposes. Because of this, there are a few simple things that you

If I were to stand at the gates of Razorback Stadium on game day, I could give each and every individual going through the gate a check in the amount of $14,000. Each gift would be a separate annual exclusion gift, which would make each of the gifts nontaxable. I would not receive a deduction for any of the gifts, nor would the recipients include the gift as income. a method of taxation on transfers of wealth that take place during both life and death. One of the most popular gifting exceptions involves the utilization of annual exclusion gifting. An annual exclusion gift involves a present interest gift to a donee in an amount less than the current annual exclusion limit of $14,000. For a married couple, the $14,000 exclusion amount is doubled to $28,000. Think of annual exclusion gifting in the following scenario: If I were to stand at the gates of Razorback Stadium on game day, I could give each and every individual going through the gate a check in the amount of $14,000. Each gift would be a separate annual exclusion gift, which would make each of the gifts nontaxable. I would not receive a deduction for any of the gifts, nor with the recipients include the gift as income. Other popular gift exclusions include tuition and medical expenses that you pay on behalf for someone other than yourself. Utilizing the tuition exclusion

directly to the educational institution. I would generally advise anyone desiring to utilize this exclusion to visit with your tax professional first. The exclusion requires absolute compliance for qualification, and it is also important to note that payments on behalf of the student could potentially jeopardize financial aid that the student may otherwise be qualified to receive. So, what is a taxable gift? A taxable gift involves any gift that does not otherwise qualify as an exclusion. Simple, right? Example: If you were to make a gift to your only child in the amount of $20,000, and if you are single, then you have made a $6000 taxable gift during the year. $14,000 of the gift qualifies for the annual exclusion, while the remaining $6000 does not. A taxable gift will require that a gift tax return (Form 709) be completed for the tax year in which the taxable gift was made. However, just because a return must be filed does not necessarily mean that a tax will be payable. For 2016, each individual

will want to keep in mind when making charitable contributions this holiday season. First, it is always important to make sure that the organization is a qualified charity. The IRS has a simple “Exempt Organizations” tool on its website that can be utilized to confirm the status. Second, keep good financial records of your gift. Most charities will provide you a written statement of your contribution (and are required to provide verification with amounts in excess of $250), but you must also keep your own personal banking records for additional substantiation. Finally, consider the timing of your end-of-year giving. If you are seeking a deduction for 2016, your gift must be made during 2016. In Northwest Arkansas, we have several qualified tax professionals that can assist you with your end of year giving goals. I encourage you to reach out to these professionals with any questions you may have as you bless others in our community during the holiday season.

A Conversation with Ken & Cindy Hatfield

By Haden Gilder

We sat down with former Arkansas Razorback football coach Ken Hatfield and his wife Cindy to talk about family and the holidays

You’ve spent a lot of time in Arkansas. Are you a native Arkansan? I was born in Helena, over on the Mississippi River. Then we moved to England, Arkansas, and Fort Smith where I played hooky in the first grade and got caught and got my butt whipped and never missed another class through high school, college or grad school. I learned my lesson in first grade. After sixth grade mother and dad got divorced and mother took my brother, Dick and me back to Helena to live with my grandparents. My granddad was Superintendent of schools there for 44 years. When we moved back to Helena, Dick and I were able to start getting involved in organized sports, which was good for us since mother was working during the day.

16 Better Way Senior Living

Why did you choose Northwest Arkansas to retire? Two things, I enjoyed being a student here back in the 60’s. I was a freshman at the University of Arkansas in 1961 and graduated in ‘65. I had a great time in the area, playing for the Razorbacks and then fortunate and blessed to come back and coach here. It doesn’t happen much to get to coach at your Alma Mater. I came back in 1984 for six years. When it came time to retire, we loved the area up here. We loved all the medical facilities and it had all the opportunities we thought we would need at that time. Also, it was close for the family and being near them. We enjoyed being able to be a part of the culture of the University of Arkansas without living in a big town per se. The great thing about Northwest

Arkansas is the weather, the beauty of the wooded areas, whether you are a hiker or if you want to be on the lake boating, or now with the Greenway, with its beauty and safety of it. I love [bike] riding around the lake. All the communities have done a tremendous job with all the stores and nick knacks along the way, where you can stop and enjoy family moments. I think it is another way all of Northwest Arkansas has united all the different communities to make this a quality place to live. We have all the things a big city has to offer, but it is spread out into all the different communities which makes it really unique. You’ve always lived an active lifestyle. What activities do you enjoy? I grew up hunting and fishing with


my granddad there on the Mississippi River -- duck hunting and quail hunting. I enjoyed those times with him quite a bit. In coaching I didn’t get a chance to do much from then on for 40 years. But coming back to Northwest Arkansas, I enjoy the beauty of the mountains. I’ve been kayaking on the lakes some, been boating some. We enjoy walking the trails. I had never been to Devil’s Den until I got back up here and [now] I walk the trails there and enjoy that. Cindy and I were very blessed to take a trip through Boxley and up through Highway 7. We had read an article about a little loop when the leaves were turning. We went by the cemetery in Harrison where they have over 400 live red maples. They were beautiful and all in bloom. It was just great. Cindy has always enjoyed Branson. Since we got married four and half years ago, we have enjoyed going to Branson a good bit.

What did the Holidays mean to your family? When we lived with my grandparents, my aunt moved back in with us and her two children, so there was a lot of us there. We always had our big Christmas on Christmas Eve and the youngest had to always read the Christmas story. So I did it for a while. But when my cousins came back, I was so happy because they had to read it and I let them stumble over some of those words and translations. In college, we would all come home and you were supposed to bring your books home to study and you would put them on the piano on the first day and then you would pick them up when you went back to school. So, all those good intentions never happened because you had so much fun. (continued next page)

Ken and Cindy Hatfield at their Springdale, Arkansas home.

As a football coach, your players are often away from home for the holidays. How did you handle Christmas with your players? How did you make it special for your players? It depended quite a bit on what bowl game we were playing in and whether it was played before or after Christmas. Several times we would have a Christmas party and give [the players] gifts, which we were legally able to do back then. The main thing we tried to do is always have family Christmas together. We would have all the children, all the coaches and their wives, and a lot of times we would have a skit of something that the wives put together. Now we have our own skit. We usually have four to six grandkids around and there’s no telling what is going to happen. Once one gift is open, they are off and playing and we’re trying to just watch them. It’s a mad scramble. It’s a true joy and blessing to get to see them enjoy all being together. What is your biggest encouragement for parents or grandparents with kids in sports about college athletics? I think the number one thing is if you’re going to play college football, is to have fun and enjoy it. Don’t let the enjoyment leave you. Play as long as you can still enjoy the game you started playing as a child. Surround yourself with people who can help you prepare for life after football. If you are fortunate enough to keep playing, pick some people that believe in you and have good character to help direct you. I found my number one job as a college coach was teaching people how to handle failure. Because everyone we recruited was the number one player on their high school team. You don’t recruit second teamers. So everybody was a

During his student days, Hatfield played defensive back from 1961-1964. As head coach, he compiled a 55–17–1 record with the Razorbacks from 1984–1989. His teams won two straight Southwest Conference titles and Hatfield became the first former player to coach his alma mater in the Cotton Bowl Classic.

first stringer and all of a sudden you are in college with eighty-five players and there is a lot of people who are going to play second- and third- or fourth-string special teams, a place they have never played before. You can give them an opportunity, you encourage them, you help them understand how to keep fighting and find out what they had to do.

I always thought it was a coach’s job to tell every player what he had to do to be a starter, to be the best he could be, and then it was up to that player to go make it happen. The saddest thing to hear as a coach is “I wish they had worked me harder so I could have had more success.” The first place I coached college was at West Point and on the first day I was there they had a quote from General MacArthur and it said, “Upon these fields of friendly strife, are sown the seeds that upon other fields on other days will bear the fruits of victory.” He’s talking about the lessons you learn in the game of football that will make a great leader for our country and families. I feel like that’s what coaches are called to do -- teach leadership through the game of football. A student athlete who gets a degree and plays sports will have a lot of opportunities in life to do a lot of things.

Keeping Up with Adult Vaccinations By Dylan Jones, Manager, Collier Drug Store Pharmacy Are you up to date on your recommended vaccinations? Like many, you may not be sure of the answer. Vaccinations are an important part of maintaining good health as we age. Complications from the influenza virus and pneumonia are more likely to occur in people as they get older. The four immunizations all persons 50 years of age and older should consider are Influenza, Pneumonia, Shingles, and Tetanus/ Diptheria/Pertussis (Tdap). These recommendations are based on the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Recommended Adult Immunization Schedule 2016 guidelines. Influenza All persons aged 6 months of older without a medical reason for not participating should receive an influenza vaccination every year. The vaccination is administered annually because the immunity you develop from the shot diminishes over the course of the year. The best time to receive this immunization is late September, October, or in early November so that you are protected before flu season gets underway. This vaccination is completely

covered by most insurance plans, including Medicare. If you are over 65 years of age, you should receive the high-dose vaccination. This higher dose is required for this population as their immune systems do not respond as well to the regular dose. Be sure to ask your pharmacist or physician for this formulation specifically if you fit in that age category. Pneumonia There are two types of pneumonia vaccines(Pneumovax®23 and Prevnar 13®.) If you have not received either vaccination and you are 65 years of age or older, you should first receive Prevnar 13®. The following year, you should receive Pneumovax®23 .Once you have completed both vaccines after the age of 65, you are fully immunized. If you have received one of these vaccinations before turning 65, the recommendation is to get each one again after turning 65. Both of these vaccinations are paid for by Medicare, as well. Some populations with specific health conditions (i.e. diabetes, kidney failure, heart disease, COPD, asthma, liver disease, and immunecompromised) should receive one or both of these vaccinations

before turning 65. Check with your pharmacist or physician to see if either vaccination is recommended for you. Shingles Patients age 60 and up should receive this vaccination. If you have ever had chicken pox, you are susceptible to the shingles rash. For those unsure if they have had chicken pox, it is assumed by the CDC that people born before 1980 have been exposed to this virus. One out of every three people in the United States will develop shingles during their lifetime if they are unvaccinated. The most notable symptom of the shingles rash is pain. Patients regularly report that this rash is one of the more painful experiences of their life. While the vaccination is not 100 percent effective in preventing the shingles outbreak, immunization significantly reduces the risk of developing shingles. The current recommendation is that you receive this vaccination only once in a lifetime. Tetanus/Diphtheria/Pertussis (Tdap) – This combination vaccine (Boostrix® or Adacel) is recommended for all adults once in their lifetime. Though many people receive their Tetanus (Td) shot every 10 years, many have not received the vaccination with the Pertussis component. One of the reasons this vaccination is so important is that it helps protect newborn babies from being exposed to whooping cough (Pertussis). If you are unsure if you have ever received the three-part combination, you should talk to your pharmacist about receiving the Tdap vaccine. The information above is not a comprehensive list of all adult vaccinations. It is important to speak with your pharmacist or doctor for a complete review of the vaccinations that you or your loved one may need.

How to Pick an Agency for In-Home Care Services

By Victoria Williams, RN, Home Helpers Home Care

26 Better Way Senior Living


An in-home care agency provides services that allow an individual to receive services and care in the comfort of their own home, including personal care, light housekeeping, cooking, errands, and transportation. If you’ve already decided that a loved one requires in-home care, the next step is to pick an agency. Keep in mind that they will be taking care of your loved one most of the time, so it’s crucial that you choose your agency carefully. To start with, choose an agency that provides all the services your parent or loved one requires. Home care can be full time or part time, and you need to determine what kind of services your loved one needs. You can speak with his or her doctor about this, or if your parent has just left the hospital, you can discuss your concerns with a hospital discharge planner or a home health care manager. How Much Do In-Home Services Cost? The cost of home care for seniors vary depending on the kind of services needed and the agency you choose. The average cost is from $15-$25 per hour. Some agencies also have a minimum requirement. You can pay for home care services in several ways. You can pay privately or you can use public programs such as Medicaid if your loved one meets their criteria. Some agencies accept VA services and Long Term Care Insurance. The following are the key questions to ask in-home care agencies: • Is your agency licensed and certified by the state? • What type of services do you provide? • Do you offer your services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? • Can we begin services right away? Is there a waiting period?

• How do you determine which caregiver is a good match for your clients?

• Is someone in-charge of monitoring the performance of your staff?

• Are there any minimums?

In addition to the above questions, you also need to check with the agency and make sure it has qualified caregivers to handle special needs especially if your loved one is suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or Dementia. Seniors who have been diagnosed with these conditions will require special care and it is imperative that their caregivers are properly trained and are adept in providing care for their specific needs. There are also instances wherein you (or your parent/ loved one) will discover after sometime that they are not compatible with the caregiver given to them. So you should clarify with the agency beforehand if you can request a different caregiver should the need arises.

• Do you have a system in place that ensures the caregiver is there on time and that shifts aren’t missed? It’s also important to understand that choosing an agency is not the only thing you need to concentrate on. A vital component to finding a good agency is the caregivers they have. You need to know the very people who will be providing care to your parent or senior loved one because they’re the ones who will be around them on a regular basis. So, before you actually decide on the agency to use, you need to find out if they have competent, compassionate, trustworthy, reliable and patient caregivers. Here are additional questions to ask the agency for this purpose: • What kind of staff do you employ? • Are ALL of your caregivers drug tested? Or are a few randomly tested? • How much experience do your caregivers have? • Do you conduct background checks and driving record checks on every single one of your staff? • Are they bonded?

• Do you provide long term care plans?

• Do you outsource the services or are the caregivers your employees?

• How do you determine what kind of service the client needs?

• Do you provide training to your caregivers?

Choose Well Home health aides can help make life easier for your loved one. You want them to enjoy their life as much as possible and by giving them a friendly and understanding caregiver, you give yourself peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. Assisted living through in-home care is the next best thing to caring for your mom or dad personally. Find a reputable home health care agency for your loved one so you’ll know they are properly cared for even when you’re not around.

The New Classical Katy Henriksen is the host of KUAF’s classical music program Of Note. From her earliest musical roots in a musical family, she now takes live classical music into intimate spaces with a new concert series. By Adam Ritchey You came from a musical family. How did your family’s love of music shape your tastes in music? What role did growing up in a musical household play in getting you to where you are now professionally? Since I was literally born into music, I’ve known no other world. My earliest memories include plucking chopsticks on my grandparents’ harpsichord, my role as the little drummer boy as we Christmas caroled, and family gatherings involving sessions in which we all got our instruments out to play together. I actually was on stage before I was even born. My mom presented a senior bass recital at the Fine Arts Center for the music department at the University of Arkansas when she was around seven months pregnant with me. I’ve decided that my family’s love and devotion to music is much like other families’ devotion to a religion, my family’s religion being the celestial transcendence of music. My first instrument was violin and I also sung in mixed choirs since elementary school. Starting in junior high I became more interested in voice and joined a show choir and eventually was in all-state choir in Arkansas. I continued to study violin and later viola and when my grandparents heard I’d finally stopped taking string instruments at one point during college, focusing instead on voice, it felt as thought they thought I was leaving the church! My family are all instrumentalists, so studying voice was like a rebellion of sorts. (continued next page)

“Of Note” recently expanded to two hours and moved on the daily schedule. How is that going? What are the long-term plans and goals for the show? The goal of my show has always been to push the idea of what classical music is into the 21st century while at the same time honoring its incredibly long history and the incredible traditions that laid the foundations of this art form. When I talk to folks they often say that while they appreciate classical music, they don’t know much about it. My response is, well unlike rock, jazz, and blues the term classical represents music that began in the middle ages and is still being created today. That’s a lot of music! I want to take away any kind of idea that classical music is only for those in the know, those who are elites with a bunch of money. Classical music is for everyone. That doesn’t mean dumbing it down. It means showing the vibrant complexity this form has and remaking the idea

30 Better Way Senior Living

of what people always associate with the term. In addition to bringing compelling classical to anyone who wants to listen to it, I highlight behind the scenes with my interviews. Whether I’m discussing the challenge of both conducting and soloing with Joshua Bell, one of the biggest names in violin playing today, or talking to local composer Ryan Cockerham about where his creations come from, I want to stimulate conversations and help garner connections to a musical form that is so rich and transcendent. Now that I’ve expanded to two hours it allows me to bring more compelling classical and more interviews to listeners. I also have a new ondemand streaming feature and am very invested in a digital presence, which is where my younger audience finds the media they want in their lives. It’s important to me to engage with that audience and I’m always thrilled when I hear from twentysomethings via Facebook or through attending a Trillium concert that what

I’m doing with “Of Note” resonates with them. You have a new live concert series hosted in small, intimate settings. You’ve called it “Trillium Salon Series.” Where did the name come from? How have the concerts been received thus far? Do you have any shows planned this winter? The name is taken from a wildflower native to the Ozarks. Trillium is three petals and three leaves and I loved the way this could represent a local culture that is cross-pollinating with a larger culture and is connecting people over a mutual love of amazing music. I’ve added a food and drink component to the series in which I partner with local food & drink makers to celebrate not simply sound but via our taste buds as well. In the future I would love to expand the salon series to visual and written as well. The series has been incredibly received by anyone who has attended and continues to


I also love to bake. Pies became huge for me when I was living in Brooklyn. I’ve had people tell me I should open a pie shop. But wouldn’t that mean I’d come to despise making pies? I don’t want that to ever happen. At the moment that’s my meditation. grow. We hosted a marimba concert in July at the KUAF studio and it was the largest turnout for any event I’ve seen here. It was also a diverse crowd with toddlers to retirees and everything in between. Trillium is all about building community via love of amazing music, as well as taking classical outside the concert hall into intimate settings so we can rethink our relationship to this form. It goes hand in hand with what I do on “Of Note.” I’m working on putting together a New Year’s Day potluck in partnership with Artists Laboratory Theatre, which recently found its own permanent space in south Fayetteville. It’s really exciting.

I’m working on a website, but in the meantime if anyone is interested in keeping up with the latest from TSS they can sign up to be on our mailing list by emailing trilliumsalonseries@ gmail.com. Beyond your job as a classical music host, what are some of your personal side interests and endeavors? Before I had my job at KUAF my main experience as an arts journalist was covering the diverse world of rock music. I lived in New York City for four years and wrote for a wide variety of publications, including

the arts & culture monthly The Brooklyn Rail. Basically, I love music and all types of it. My classical music upbringing always informed my interviews whether it was with Ladytron, Beirut, Bonnie “Prince” Billy or Kathleen Hannah. I also helped run a hand-bound literary magazine and co-hosted a poetry reading series, not to mention I’ve worked in three used bookshops while going to school, including Dickson Street Bookshop (did a documentary film on while in grad school that was featured in the Hot Springs Film Festival) and the Strand in New York City. Literature, music, visual arts are all personal interests. I also love to bake. Pies became huge for me when I was living in Brooklyn and that baking tradition continues to this day. I’ve had people tell me I should open a pie shop but wouldn’t that mean I’d come to despise making pies? I don’t want that to ever happen. At the moment that’s my meditation.

FULFILLING

Lincoln’s PROMISE

By Terry Thurman, Arkansas Distrcit 2 Veteran’s Service Officer


“To care for him who shall have borne the battle, and for his widow, and his orphan� by serving and honoring the men and women who are America’s Veterans. This is the mission statement of the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA). There are three different administrations that compose the VA -- The Veterans Benefit Administration (VBA), Veterans Health Administration (VHA), and National Cemetery Administration (NCA). Inside of each of these organizations are benefits that are offered to eligible veterans and their dependents. The Veterans Benefits Administration provides a variety of benefits and services to Service members, veterans, and their families. The VBA has been undergoing a major transformation that is people-centric, results-oriented, and a forwardlooking integration of solutions that will ensure total lifelong engagement with service-members, veterans, and their families. VBA benefits are broken down into two categories: compensation and pension. Both of these categories have benefits for eligible veterans and their dependents. Disability Compensation is a tax free monetary benefit paid to veterans with disabilities that are the result of a disease or injury incurred or aggravated during active military service. Compensation may also be paid for post-service disabilities that are considered related or secondary to disabilities occurring in service and for disabilities presumed to be related

to circumstances of military service, even though they may arise after service. Veteran Pension is a supplemental, tax-free monetary benefit payable to low-income wartime veterans to help families cope with financial challenges. Generally, a veteran must have at least 90 days of active duty service, with at least one day during a wartime period to qualify for a VA pension. If you entered active duty after September 7, 1980, generally you must have served at least 24 months or the full period for which you were called or ordered to active duty (with some exceptions), with at least one day during a wartime period. Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (DIC) is a tax-free monetary benefit payable to a surviving spouse, child, or parent of service members who died on active duty, active duty training, or inactive duty training, or survivors of veterans who died from their serviceconnected disabilities. DIC for Parents is an income based benefit. The Survivors Pension benefit, which may also be referred to as Death Pension, is a tax-free monetary benefit payable to a low-income, un-remarried surviving spouse and/ or unmarried child(ren) of a deceased veteran with wartime service. The deceased veteran must meet the

same requirements as the Veterans Pension. Survivors Pension is also based on your annual family income, which must be less than the amount set by Congress to qualify. While an un-remarried spouse is eligible at any age, a child of a deceased wartime Veteran must be under 18, or under age 23 if attending a VA-approved school, or permanently incapable of self-support due to a disability before age 18. For information on these and other VA programs, please contact the Department of Veteran Affairs at (800) 827-1000. You can also contact your local County Veteran Service Officers (CVSO) who are located in each county. They are appointed by the County Judge to help veterans and their eligible dependents navigate the VA claims and appeal system.

The winter months are the perfect time to explore the beaches and Mayan ruins of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula.

All-inclusive Mexican resorts provide for your every need. On the Gulf of Mexico, you can explore a thousand years of Mayan history without leaving the beach. By Adam Ritchey

The dark, cold days of winter in the Ozark Mountains can wear on even the most gleeful and positive snow lovers. But one need not suffer an acute case of seasonal affective disorder to have a longing for a warm, sunny break from the Ozark winter. A week on the warm coast of Mexico is a surprisingly easy and affordable solution. We recently found ourselves at the Luxury Bahia Principe Akumal, an allinclusive resort on the eastern shore of the Yucatan Peninsula. The massive property is itself divided into four resorts with different themes, options and prices. Some are closer to the beach than others. Some cater to families. One is for adults only.

But wherever you choose to stay, you will find yourself among fellow travelers from around the world. During our week on the Mexican Riviera, we exclusively met western Europeans. Getting There. From Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport, your air carrier will route you through either DallasFort Worth or Atlanta. From there, it’s a relatively short flight across the Gulf of Mexico to Cancun International Airport. When booking your resort stay, be sure to inquire about airport shuttles. Most travelers shuttle from the airport to their appointed resort. Bahia Akumal is a 40-minute shuttle south. Sadly, although you will be traveling

along the coast, there are fleetingly few views of the ocean until you reach your actual destination. (Upon your arrival, be sure to book your return shuttle immediately!) Once you are checked in, take advantage of the surprisingly robust and efficient system of trolleys. Several color-coded routes take visitors to all corners of the vast resort. They claim to visit each trolley stop at least every 15 minutes. We never waited longer than that during our week at Akumal. Although it is rejuvenating to walk among the palms of the resort, walking to a destination is rarely required at any of the all-inclusive resorts in the area. The resort offers a nearly endless menu of activities, from golf courses and dolphin interactions to jungle tours and ocean excursions. There are daily activities for kids, too. The resort will also assist you in setting up inland adventures, including tours of the Mayan pyramids at Coba and Chitchen Itza. (Be aware, Coba and Chichen Itza tours can be physically demanding. Temperatures can be high and the jungle humidity even higher.) Besides the all-inclusive 24-hour buffet,

38 Better Way Senior Living

The mysterious Mayan ruins of Tulum have stood over the cerulean water and sandy beaches of Mexico for more than a millennia. travelers to Akumal will have access to over a dozen specialty restaurants. Please be aware that these restaurants require reservations. We strongly suggest that you set your reservations immediately after checking in. Among our favorites were Rodizio (Brazilia), Dolce Vita (Italian), and Tequlia (Mexican). For those who don’t prefer salt water, there are countless pools spread throughout the resort. If you have your heart set on the perfect poolside lounge all day long, however, we suggest you arrive early to claim your spot. Some people simply don’t know how to sleep in during a vacation, so

most chairs are occupied before breakfast. Each pool and beach has its own walkup bar. Of course, all drinks are free, but during high traffic periods, some of the bars have wait staff bringing drinks right to your beach chair. (Tipping is officially discouraged, but we noted several couples tipping and receiving more attentive service in return.) Even more memorable than the resort itself are the world-famous Mayan ruins of Tulum. Located less than 20 miles south of the resort, the ruins are a short taxi ride away. While almost all other Mayan ruins are located in the inland jungle, Tulum was built some 1,600 years ago on the jaw dropping cliffs overlooking the Caribbean Sea. The paths are easy to navigate with relatively few steps. However, it can be hot and humid. (Don’t mind the iguanas, they are harmless.) Pro Tip: If you visit Tulum, go first thing in the morning. The crowds are smaller and the temperatures more mild. By noon, scores of buses from the area resorts arrive with literally thousands of tourists. You should also charge your camera before departing!
