If you haven't visited the Center Point Library, now is the time to come and see the plans that the Library Board has for expansion.

As a former teacher and principal of the local school, I value the library as a tool for education. I have been a library board member for 9 years and have been delighted to observe the growth that has occurred. Not only does the library give access to the wonderful world of books, but also incorporates the technology of today.

Because of this growth, there is a need for expansion. Space is limited and crowded, especially during story time for youngsters, and is a significant problem. The necessity to weed books to find room for new ones is an issue. Students who come in after school is dismissed are welcome, but need quiet places to study or read.

319-849-1373

In addition to the library expansion, our plan includes a community room. This area would provide a space for a variety of events: wedding receptions, graduation parties, anniversary celebrations, baby and/or bridal showers to mention a few.

The Board and its supporters have worked diligently to fundraise and are very close to the goal of $2.8 million. If you haven’t had an opportunity to contribute, this would be a good time.

Stop in to the Library and visit and study the plans. You are welcome to see the lay-out.

Superman Comic Q: I have the comic “Death of Superman” and wonder how much it might be worth. -Robert, Kitty Hawk, N.C. A: “Death of Superman,” or Superman No. 75, was issued in 1993 by DC Comics in several formats. If the one you have is still sealed in a black plastic bag, it is worth about $16. Other editions include platinum ($50), regular first press run ($8) and other editions ($4-$6). With comics, condition is paramount. Prices might vary a little depending on dealer and region. *** Q: I have a New York Yankees reserved seat ticket stub for Lou Gehrig’s farewell speech on July 4, 1939. Is there any value? -- Robert, Palm Coast, Fla. A: That historic day, 60,000 tickets were sold. One of those tickets signed by Gehrig will be auctioned in Cleveland and is expected to fetch $100,000.

To determine the value of your ticket, you might want to contact Heritage Auction, one of the largest auction houses specializing in sports memorabilia. The contact information is Heritage Auctions, 3500 Maple Ave., 17th Floor, Dallas, TX 75219, and 214-528-3500. *** Q: I have several old calendar plates from the 1970s. One promoted our country’s 200th year. Are they worth keeping? -MaryAnne, Broken Arrow, Okla.

A: Only you can determine if your plates are worth keeping.

Most calendar plates from the 1960s and ‘70s that I have seen in shops and at antique malls have been priced in the $10 to $25 range. There are

FLASHBACK

By Mick Harper 1. Which group released “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer,” and when?

2. Name the one hit by Norma Cecilia Tanega.

3. “Anthem” and “Skybird” were on which Neil Diamond album?

4. Which song mentions flipflops, pop tops and a blender.

5. Name the song that contains this lyric: “Oh, I used to love to make you cry, It made me feel like a man inside, If I had been a man in reality, You’d be here, baby, loving me.”

Answers 1. The Beatles, 1969. After many takes and overdubs, Paul McCartney put down a layer with a Moog synthesizer, one of their first experiments.

2. “Walkin’ My Cat Named Dog,” in 1966. While Tanega never had another hit of her own, she did pen a few for Dusty Springfield, including “No Stranger Am I.” 3. “Jonathan Livingston Seagull,” the soundtrack to the 1973 film by the same name.

4. “Margaritaville,” by Jimmy Buffet, in 1977.

5. “Working My Way Back to You,” most recently done

by The Spinners in 1979. The song originally was released in 1966 by the Four Seasons.

While it’s the Four Seasons’ version people remember, it never cracked the No. 9 position on the charts. The Spinners’ version went to No. 2. (c) 2014 King Features Synd.,

always exceptions. World War II-era patriotic plates seem to be especially collectible and are priced accordingly. A “Win the War” design from about 1943 recently sold for $75. *** Q: I have a print of Claude Monet’s “Woman Seated Under the Willows” from the Dale Collection at the National Gallery of Art. It is lovely, but I doubt that it has much value except in the beauty. -- Dorothy, Warrick, R.I. A: Your print likely was originally sold in the gift shop at the National Gallery of Art in Washington. It would have limited value to a collector, but my advice is to keep and enjoy it. The beauty of Monet’s artwork is, at least in my opinion, truly priceless.

With the economy inching its way back to health, consumers are looking for ways to get out from under mountains of debt and begin saving again.

Here are a few ideas, both easy and not so easy.

• Call your bank and ask to automatically transfer $25 a month from your checking into your savings account. If you can swing it, make that amount $100. It’s money you’ll never see, don’t have to make decisions about, and likely won’t ever miss.

• If you’ve been using credit cards for miscellaneous expenses while you’re out, grab the three most recent monthly statements and a pen. Mark off all those purchases you remember. If there are purchases you don’t remember, that’s a warning.

If the bulk of your charges are for daily purchases or lunches or dinners out, challenge yourself to not put those expenses on a credit card for a month.

• Look online at americasaves. org for ideas about saving and reducing debt. (No need to sign up on The Pledge because that gives away your email address.) Don’t miss its Personal Wealth Estimator. You’ll enter your assets (financial and nonfinancial) and your debts (mortgage, credit cards, loans). The bottom line will give your current net worth.

If you continue to Part 2, you can calculate your future net worth. That in itself can be an incentive to save.

With all the old and new ways to market, Free Papers are on the rise as Print Publications still rank number 1 with the ability to capture people’s attention.

While Radio can give listeners great messages, TV commercials offer great ways to promote video of your business, but what’s the chance someone will remember or have time to take down your contact information after it aired? Internet is still the wild west of marketing as many people will see your ad but few will click on it.

With Print as always, readers can view the ad as long as they want, they can save it and even share it with others. As they say never put your eggs in one basket. A diverse marketing plan is a shrewd marketing plan. Make Tidbits a part of it.

• The National Foundation for Credit Counseling (www.nfcc. org) has a program showing how to save a million dollars. You enter your goal (it doesn’t have to be a million) and when you’d like to accumulate that amount of money, your age and other information, and it will calculate how much you need to save on a monthly basis to reach your savings goal. This is a great way to beef up your emergency savings or save for a special goal, such as a house.

• While you’re on the NFCC site, look at the Cost of Credit program before you use a credit card to make a large purchase that you can’t pay off in three months. Enter your intended expense, the interest rate and your payment. The program will calculate how much interest you’ll pay until you have a zero balance. Play with the figures to see if you can shave down that interest by paying extra each month.

With the economy in better shape, it IS possible to get back a feeling of financial normalcy, but it will take work.

David Uffington regrets that he cannot personally answer reader questions, but will incorporate them into his column whenever possible. Send email to columnreply3@gmail.com. (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

Getting Tough With Savings and Debt

EN

DOLLARS AND SENSE

BY David Uffington

©2005

©2005

Before Congress raced off to vacation in August, senators voted 91-3 to pass the longawaited, $17 billion veterans emergency health-care bill.

Here are a few tidbits from the bill: • Veterans will receive a Choice Card for care, but don’t get excited yet. To qualify for this card, a veteran must have served within the past five years, or already be signed up with Veterans Affairs health care. It will be more of an ID/insurance card that gives service information for eligibility. You likely won’t be able to take the card to a private doctor unless the care has been approved by the VA. • If a veteran is given a long wait time for appointments (over 30 days) or lives more than 40 miles from care, he or she will be eligible to get private sector care. That 40 miles is “straight line,” aka geodesic distance.

• Veterans who were sexually assaulted will receive care.

• Twenty-seven new clinics will open.

• The VA will hire $5 billion worth of new health-care providers.

• Bonuses will be capped at $360 million per year.

• The VA secretary will be allowed to fire senior VA

executives much more quickly.

When they look for incompetents to fire, I hope they aim their lasers at the VA medical center in Kentucky. A veteran collapsed at home and was transported there, where he was hooked up to life support. By the time his wife and family arrived at the hospital, staff told her that her husband was dead. They gave her a specific time of death. Distraught, she asked to see him one more time to say goodbye. What she found was a living, breathing husband with good heart rate and blood pressure who was responding to commands.

THE KITCHEN DIVA

Of all the berries of summer, blackberries are the ones that arrive early and stay late into the season.

In warm climates, this strikingly beautiful fruit begins producing in late spring, and if the weather is not too hot, will continue throughout the summer. If you’ve grown tired of strawberries and can’t find fresh raspberries or blueberries at the market, there most likely will still be baskets of blackberries.

Many of us, with other choices of summer fruit, might pass over blackberries. Maybe you remember a blackberry with a tart, sugarless taste. This unfortunate berry simply didn’t have what it needed to grow to its full potential. It would be a shame to shun blackberries without tasting them. They’re one of the most delicious and healthy treats that summer could possibly bring us. Today’s farmers know just how to keep their plants happy and producing sweet, tart fruit.

Blackberries, like blueberries and raspberries, are a super food. They are rich in vitamin C and fiber, but their most desirable healthy trait comes from their dark-blue color, which is linked to high antioxidant levels. Antioxidants are considered a natural deterrent to many cancers August 21, 2014 4:30-6:30 PM and other diseases, and there is a long list of wonderful heath At Sherbon’s Flower Market effects associated with eating fresh blackberries regularly.

In summer, depending on your part of the country, there are many pickyour-own farms. This is a fun way to get the tastiest fruit. When selecting blackberries, look for ones that have a plump, dark color. Remember the brand or farm that gives you your first delicious berries, because you likely can depend on it throughout the season.

Blackberries are highly perishable. When you get them home, unpack them and look for any that might have mold, and discard them. Then store the berries, unwashed, in a single layer on a plate or in another container, and place it in the refrigerator. The blackberries should keep for up to a week.

You can use blackberries in both sweet and savory dishes. My recipes for Grilled Cheese Sandwiches with Blackberry-Basil Spread and my Blackberry and Spinach Salad are the perfect way to showcase the sweet perfection of blackberries.

“Seconds”

by Bryan Lee O’Malley (Ballantine, $25) Reviewed by Ealish Waddell It seems like Katie’s life should be pretty great: She’s a celebrated chef at the most popular eatery in town, and she’s slowly moving forward on her dream of opening her own restaurant. But she’s currently having a really bad day: Her ex shows up out of nowhere, her fling just broke up with her, and worst of all, a co-worker is badly burned in an accident that was her fault.

And so, stressed and angstridden, when she wakes up in the middle of the night to find a set of cryptic instructions in her dresser -- “write your mistake, ingest one mushroom, go to sleep” -- she does. And in the morning none of the terrible things seem to have ever happened at all.

At first Katie is thrilled, if a little weirded out. Then she stumbles across more mushrooms, and new problems to use them on.

Human nature being what it is, soon every complication leads to a mushroom and a brand new do-over.

But of course, trying to fix one thing often just makes two other things worse. As Katie rewrites her entire history one blunder at a time, the changes and consequences grow greater and reach farther. Her revisions are affecting more lives than just her own -- and may even be changing all of reality itself.

“Seconds” is an enchanting graphic novel, a dreamy yet lively fairy tale about the irresistible appeal of second chances. O’Malley, author of the best-selling “Scott Pilgrim” comic series, imbues his signature bold, big-eyed style with a delicate magical realism, a blend that works with surprising power.

The story is reminiscent of ancient folktales but spiced with a uniquely modern sense of sass, as well as the warning that things that seem to magically appear just when you want them may not have anything to do with what you really need. (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

HOLLYWOOD

By Tony Rizzo PHOTO: Richard Gere HOLLYWOOD -- Amidst all the talk and plans for his upcoming wedding, George Clooney has picked his next two projects. Autumn will find him shooting “Hail Caesar” for the Coen brothers, about a 1950s movie studio string-puller. Already onboard are Josh Brolin and Scarlett Johansson. Ironically, Johansson, who’s expecting her first child (with French journalist husband Romain Dauriac), will play an actress suddenly discovering she’s pregnant. Also ready to sign for the film is Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Tilda Swinton and Ralph Fiennes. Then spring will find George shooting “Money Monster,” being directed by Oscar-winner Jody Foster.

Clooney’s next film in theaters is “Tomorrowland,” which Disney will release in May. *** Richard Gere is still going strong at 64. February will bring him to theaters in “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel 2,” with Judi Dench, Bill Nighy and Maggie Smith, and later next year in “Franny,” with Theo James and Dakota Fanning. Gere currently is shooting “Time Out of Mind” on the streets of New York with Kyra Sedgwick (“The Closer”), in which they both play homeless people. *** Ben Affleck’s new film, “Gone Girl,” with Rosamund Pike, Neil Patrick Harris and Tyler Perry comes out in October. He’s currently before the cameras filming the May 2016 release of “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.” Affleck is reprising his 2003 “Batman” role as Bruce Wayne/Batman. Henry Cavill again is Clark Kent/Superman, Amy Adams is Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne is Perry White, Diane Lane is Martha Kent (Clark’s adoptive mother), Jesse Eisenberg is Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons assumes the role of Alfred, Batman’s butler, best friend and mentor.

The new Wonder Woman will be Israeli actress and supermodel Gal Gardot, who was Gisele Harabo in “The Fast & the Furious” film series. Affleck, Cavill and Gardot are expected to return for the next “Justice League” film being helmed by director Zack Snyder. *** A friend of mine lives in the same Beverly Hills condo complex that Justin Bieber now calls home. Recently her son was detained by a building security guard because of all the noise coming from their apartment. Her son is a lawyer who is rarely home, and he finally got them to understand he wasn’t Bieber and didn’t live in that apartment, but the one below him. Seems all of Bieber’s bodyguards and late-night parties have been making the tenants very mad, and they want it to stop. How would you like to have him as a neighbor? Seems wherever he lives, trouble follows. Bet you wouldn’t care how famous he is if he keeps you up nights! Guess it would make a non-Belieber out of anyone! (c) 2014 King Features Synd., Inc.

ANSWERS

Kristina Zajic, speech pathologist and mom of 8-year-old Aisha and 10-year-old Elizabeth, loves bins. She has sand-toy bins, Barbie bins, ball bins, pretend-toy bins, office-supply bins and even nail-polish bins. “When I walk into Target and see a new color, I’m inspired to have the fresh look for the season,” she said. “That’s why I snapped up two bright travel-size bins for my daughters before our three-hour car trip to stay in their grandparents’ fifthwheel RV at a campsite.”

For no-tech car-trip entertainment, she filled the bins with new sunglasses, treats and plenty of challenging card games, activity books and art supplies. “My oldest daughter does get carsick,” she confessed. “That’s when the girls put reading and card games on hold for a while, and we play brain games together. The miles and twisty curves fly by.”

Here’s a word game that’s fun for school-age kids and adults to play together in the car or however you travel.

My daughter taught it to us on a winter car trip. “Go to the Moon” got us through snowstorms, slippery mountain roads and being asked one too many times, “Are we there yet?”

“GO TO THE MOON” The person who is “It” thinks of three things that have something in common, such as a mango, pineapple and papaya (all tropical fruits). “It” then says to the other players, “I’m going to the moon and taking along a mango, a pineapple and

a papaya. Who wants to come with me?”

Given the clues, the first player tries to figure out what the items have in common, then names a fourth item that fits the category, such as “banana.” Another, more complex example might be, “I’m going to the moon and taking along the Twins, the White Sox and the Tigers” (all professional baseball teams). A fourth item that would fit could be the Royals.

If the item fits, “It” responds, “You may come with me.” The next player names an item. If the player names an item that doesn’t fit, he or she may try again on the next turn. When everyone finally learns the common element, the round is over.

Topics can be as simple or as complicated as you choose. Try to accommodate even the youngest in the family when playing. ***
