Angelita Cruz Bridges,president of the Hispanic/Latino Democratic Caucusof Lucas County, is steppingdown in January at the closeof her successful two-yearterm.

Bridges, who cut her po-litical teeth during AnitaLópez’s successful cam-paign for election to theToledo School Board in2001, says she wants to givesomeone else a chance tobecome actively involvedin the political process.

But rest assured, Bridgesis not burned out by her ex-perience, which also placedher on the executive com-mittee of the Lucas CountyDemocratic Party.

She and her husbandJonathan, a financial analystwith Jeep Truck Engineer-ing in Detroit, are the parentsof a young son, Donavan,who turns three next March.And while Bridges isn’tabout to become a stay-homemom; she is looking forwardto being able to spend morequality time with her family.

Bridges, who is 30, is a staffattorney at Bowling GreenState University. “I work in anoffice of three, and I am a ten-month attorney, which meansI have two months off. And Iget to work with one of mymentors, Jeanne Johns,” saysBridges.

She is also looking forwardto helping launch the JudgeJoseph A. Flores Scholarship,which is currently at the plan-ning stage at the University ofToledo Foundation. “I lookforward to working with MaryJane Flores to get the scholar-ship endowed,” says Bridges.The scholarship honors thelongtime judge of the Com-mon Pleas Court of LucasCounty, Juvenile Division.

Bridges and Family Courtmagistrate Alan Mutchler, aclose associate and friend ofthe late Judge Flores, are part-time teachers in the paralegalstudies program at the Uni-versity of Toledo, under thedirection of Kathleen Reed. “Iteach contract law twice aweek, on Monday andWednesday evenings,” says

Angelita Cruz Bridges takes apolitical time out; she’ll focuson Joseph A. Flores scholarshipprogramBy Alan AbramsLa Prensa Senior Correspondent

Bridges.Bridges, who is of Puerto

Rican descent, was born inSuffern, in New York’sRockland County. Her par-ents, David and Eneida Cruz,came to Northwest Ohio inorder to pursue their educa-tional and career goals.

“I graduated from Bowl-ing Green High School in1992 and did my undergradu-ate studies at the Universityof Toledo. After I graduatedfrom law school in 2000 andpassed the bar exam, I washired by Advocates for BasicLegal Equality (ABLE) as ahousing attorney under theAmericorps program work-ing in the area of predatorylending,” says Bridges.

Donavan will be almostseven years old when the2008 election rolls around.Does that mean Bridges willreturn to the political arena?She’s not ruling out any pos-sibilities at this point.

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP),Nov. 30: A federal judge lastTuesday temporarily barredthe state from implementinga ballot initiative aimed atcutting illegal immigrants offfrom public benefits.

U.S. District Judge DavidC. Bury’s order said a lawsuitby initiative opponentsraised questions about theconstitutionality of Propo-sition 200, which was ap-proved by voters on Nov. 2.His temporary restrainingorder will keep the measurefrom becoming law until atleast Dec. 22, when he hasscheduled a hearing on thelawsuit.

Bury said his decisionshouldn’t be construed as acomment on the legality ofthe proposition. The ordermerely gives the court timeto consider the issue, thejudge said.

“It seems to this court thata matter as important and withsuch potential ramificationsas Proposition 200 requiresand deserves time forthoughtful deliberation,”Bury wrote in his order.

Proposition 200 requiresproof of immigration statuswhen obtaining certain gov-ernment services and proofof citizenship when register-ing to vote. Governmentworkers who don’t report il-legal immigrants who try to

get benefits could also facejail time and a fine.

Backers sold the measureduring the campaign as a wayto begin cracking down onillegal immigration in Ari-zona, the busiest illegal entrypoint on the U.S.-Mexico bor-der.

The suit filed here Tuesdayargues that Proposition 200 isunconstitutional because itusurps the federalgovernment’s power over im-migration and naturalization.

“We believe that this is apromising start to ensure thatthe proposition doesn’t be-come law,” said Ann MarieTallman, president and gen-eral counsel of the MexicanAmerican Legal Defense andEducational Fund, which filedthe lawsuit on behalf of theplaintiffs, including severalundocumented immigrants.

Gov. Janet Napolitano’sspokeswoman, JeanineL’Ecuyer, said Napolitano hadbeen planning to sign a procla-mation Wednesday declaringthat Proposition 200 is state law.

However, she andNapolitano general counselTim Nelson said the judge’sorder apparently bars the gov-ernor from issuing the procla-mation. “Our understandingis that the judge’s intent is thatit not take effect,” L’Ecuyersaid.

Proponents who backed theproposition didn’t returnphone calls Tuesday evening

seeking comment on thejudge’s decision. Earlier inthe day, Randy Pullen, chair-man of Yes on Proposition200, said: “I think we are onreal solid ground constitu-tionally.”

The lawsuit argues thatthe law will jeopardize the“health and well-being” offamilies who depend on pub-lic benefits for basic necessi-ties and could potentiallycut them from all state ser-vices, including schools andemergency services.

The measure wasn’t in-tended to affect federallymandated services.

The suit says that provi-sions of the law requiringpeople to present IDs to votewill disenfranchise thou-sands, disproportionatelyaffecting Hispanics who areless likely to have the kindsof identification required.

The suit asks the court todeclare the initiative uncon-stitutional and issue an in-junction preventing it fromever taking effect.

Arizona Attorney Gen-eral Terry Goddard con-cluded that Proposition 200applies only to welfare ben-efits.

But supporters of the mea-sure filed a lawsuit Nov. 18seeking to broaden its scopeto include benefits such aspublic housing, food assis-tance, college education andemployment benefits.

Fed judge bars Arizona immigration initiativefrom becoming lawBy ANANDA SHOREYAssociated Press Writer

Editorial by La Prensa: Resolve the impasseOver two months have passed since the first of the AG six were “terminated” by the

new director of the Aurora L. González Community & Family Resource Center andnothing has been done by the AG Board of Directors to resolve several crises.

Labor grievances and requests to recognize Union Venceremos as the bargainingunit of AG employees as well as requests for a variety of documents under the Freedomof Information Act (FOIA) are pending.

All requests/grievances have been ignored and/or neglected by the AG Board,which bears ultimate responsibility to resolve these impasses and issues.

The Board’s attorney is of the opinion that AG does not have to release its recordssince it is a “private” corporation. But this belies the fact that AG is a non-profitcorporation that depends almost exclusively upon public monies for its financial support,in its pledge to serve the south end community with essential social services.

The AG Board cancelled its regularly scheduled monthly meeting of November 22,and then cancelled, at the last minute, meetings slated for November 29 and December6. One of its officers claims that the next meeting won’t be until January 24 at 6:00PM.If this be the case, three months will have gone by without any negotiation or attemptof resolution.

Meanwhile, clients of AG are complaining of a denial or a diminution of services byAG, which the AG Center is pledged to provide, and six former employees are left highand dry, without due process or hearing and contrary to the AG’s own EmployeeHandbook of 1999.

The Board is urged to attempt resolving these serious issues as soon as possible andotherwise comply with FOIA.

ARIES: (March 21-April 20)This will be a creative week for you, even though your

energies will be subdued. Your personality will blossomunder any pressures and you get the feeling that any problemsyou have will be over soon and gone. Recklessness may meanoverspending your budget.

TAURUS: (April 21 - May 21)Your week’s plans may need alterations because of a

financial development, or perhaps a misunderstanding some-where along the line. Your workday routine may be aggra-vated and could be a continuance from a former problem thatstill exists. Put everything in perspective.

GEMINI: (May 22 - June 21)Don’t rely on too much cooperation this week from those

around you, who are probably just as stressed out as you are.Stimulating ideas just might arise from quiet and seeminglyboring times. Your finances are definitely on an upswing, butdon’t overspend.

CANCER: (June 22 - July 23)This is not the week for taking risks or speculating, and if

a long-term debt is inevitable, check out all the facts first,before signing anything. A friendship or romance may be abit rocky right now, try not to force issues, and avoid beingoutspoken to others.

LEO: (July 24- August 23)Optimism abounds during the week, but don’t allow this

high feeling to prompt extravagance or carelessness whereyour given responsibilities are concerned. You may be caughtin the middle of a job dispute, find out which prioritydominates your actions.

VIRGO: (August 24 - September 23)Verbalizing your feelings to someone close could be the

best way to clear the air, provided tact is used. Creativityflourishes this week, but make sure to be super practical in allfinancial dealings. Take a good and honest look at a loverelationship—is it real?

LIBRA: (September 24 - October 23)Opt for a low-key approach toward just about everything

this week. Those surrounding you will tend to be bothuncooperative and unpredictable, so it may be difficult tostay calm and in control. Your good spirits and self-assuranceare quite contagious.

SCORPIO: (October 24 - November 22)You and someone close to you may be very much at odds

during the week - be patient and work things out. Whether onthe job or in your social life, the pace quickens and you’re aptto be incredibly busy. Your home life is also picking upmomentum so plan your time.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 - December 21)Counterproductive influences are at work so you will

need to get down to business concerning your immediatecareer plans and ultimate goals. It’s time to lie low andrecharge your energies. A delightful romantic interludewill influence your outlook.

CAPRICORN: (December 22 - January 20)An insecure person in your inner circle can benefit from

your support this week. And while you are giving goodadvice, you may realize the advice is very much applicableto one of your own problems. With conflict at home, work outa solution to please everyone.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 - February 19)Whether or not you are enjoying a change of scene this

week, a romantic encounter will set your spirits soaring.Pleasant times will be spent at home and with the family, andthere is a definite possibility of overdoing and overindulgingin the evenings.

PISCES: (February 20 - March 20)Don’t be surprised if you have second thoughts about

some matter you had thought was definitely settled. Afterreviewing it, you may find room for improvement. Be flexibleconcerning social plans for scheduled events might have tobe postponed. Alternate plans will be more enjoyable.

IF THIS WEEK IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: You and alover may share a meeting of the minds, and all those deepdiscussions will bring you closer together. Now you canconnect with a soul mate whose values will reflect yourson all levels. New influences will create a liberating effecton you.

Raúl Rivero

LA HABANA (AP), 30 denov: Con los ojosenrojecidos por el cansancioy visiblemente emocionado,el poeta y disidente RaúlRivero Castañeda enfrentóel martes sus primeras horasfuera de la cárcel sin saber siabandonará o no la isla.

“No tengo un plantodavía para el futuro”, dijoRivero pocos minutosdespués de llegar a su casaen un barrio capitalino, sobrelas 9 de la mañana.

Versiones desde elextranjero habíanmencionado que el escritorpodría buscar el exilio.

Rivero, de 59 años, tienesu vida momentáneamenteen un “compás de espera”,luego de casi 21 meses deprisión, aunque lasautoridades le sugirieron noemigrar.

“Nunca querría irme deCuba. Pienso que voy aobservar si puedo hacerperiodismo normalmente,como estaba haciendo”,agregó. Antes de serdetenido, Riverocolaboraba con mediosafuera de la isla y coordinabauna agencia de prensa nogubernamental.

Fue el quinto opositor

enviado a casa en dos días,poco después de un trasladomasivo de presos desde otrascárceles hacia la capital elfin de semana y unacercamiento diplomáticoentre Cuba y España.

Madrid impulsó undiálogo con la isla,sancionada por la UniónEuropea (UE) por losencarcelamientos del 2003,mientras demandó un gestode flexibilidad a La Habana.

Además del escritor, fuedejado en libertad el martesOsvaldo Alfonso Valdés.

Oscar Espinosa Chepe,Marcelo López y MargaritoBroche fueron excarceladosel lunes, y otros siete reosfueron liberados entre mayoy julio.

Todos ellos, además deRivero y Valdez, estaban en-tre los 75 disidentessentenciados en 2003 poracusaciones de colaborar conWashington para socavar algobierno cubano.

“Me otorgaron unalicencia extrapenal sincondiciones”, explicóRivero, quien parecía haberadelgazado. La figurajurídica, la misma aplicadaen todas las excarcelaciones,permite al reo ir a su hogar

para recibir tratamientomédico.

Según el examen médicorealizado antes de salir de laprisión, dijo el poeta, su saluden general está bien aunquetiene enfisema pulmonar yquistes en un riñón.

Las liberaciones “son ungesto del gobierno parareducir un poco las tensiones”,consideró el reconocidointelectual, quien consideraque las detenciones leocasionaron al gobiernoisleño muchas críticasinternacionales.

Rivero, quien fuecorresponsal de la agenciaoficial Prensa Latina yescribió libros premiados porlas autoridades de la isla(“Papel de hombre” y “Poesíapública” entre otros) rompiócon el gobierno a partir de ladécada pasada.

Ahora, el escritor dijo queel juicio, en el cual fuecondenado a 20 años y losprimeros tiempos de prisiónfueron “los más difíciles”,pues pasó once meses en unacelda en solitario.

Alfonso, el otro liberadoel martes, fue el únicodisidente en admitir duranteante el tribunal que habríasido manipulado por Estados

Unidos, mientras sus los otrospresos se declararoninocentes.

Mientras, en España lasautoridades expresaron sucomplacencia.

“Las liberaciones son unabuena noticia”, dijo elcanciller ibérico Miguel An-gel Moratinos.

“La decisión delgobierno español es seguirtrabajando, con sus sociosde la UE, con el objetivo deconseguir la normalizaciónde la interlocucióndiplomática de todos losEstados miembros conCuba”, explicó elfuncionario.

En Washington, elportavoz del departamentode Estado, Richard Boucher,dijo que “le damos labienvenida por su regreso acasa (a Rivero) y el fin de suinjusta detención”.

Mija Magazine is back,La Prensa!Yes, we have returned with brand new articles and arevitalized website! You know La Prensa readers, startinga magazine on your own is pretty difficult. I went fromno computer to owning one great one!

Throughout the summer, I went to various places to checkmy email. I was stunned at the response the magazinewas getting. Mijas that stopped living their dreambecause there was no mass media outlet to support themand when they saw what Mija Magazine had to offerthey picked up that dream, dust it off, and kept on movingforward.

One day, I was looking at the weird patterns on the ceilingin my room saying to myself, “How am I going to dothis?” And now look we’re in La Prensa, online, andwithin the next few months launching nationally to10,000+ Mijas in magazine form! (Advertising infoonline) But let’s talk about now shall we? Within thenext few weeks look for the following:

LORAIN, OH: CenturyTelhas been receiving many callsfrom customers inquiringabout the *72 call forwardingfeature. Recent repair ticketpatterns indicate a high use of*72, the calling feature thatforwards incoming calls to anumber specified by the cus-tomer.

Locally, we have receivedcalls related to recent phonecalls from the prisons. Inmatesrandomly call numbers in ourserving area. When a customeranswers, they ask the unsus-pecting person if they couldplease help them reach a lovedone.

The caller asks the cus-tomer to just dial *72 and aparticular phone number forthem. When a customer presses*72 and dials a phone num-ber, they forward their phonenumber to that phone number.

The phone number is,many times, a long distancephone number, and the cus-tomer incurs these long dis-tance charges on his/her phonebill. Each time the person atthe prison wants to reach thatphone number, they call ourcustomer’s local phone num-ber that has been call for-warded to the long distancenumber they wish to reach.

Our customer is billed thelong distance charges. Simi-larly, every time anyone callsthe customer, they are for-warded to the long distancephone number. The customer

pays for all these calls, manytimes long distance calls, un-til the call forwarding featureis deactivated.

In other areas, someCenturyTel customers havereceived a call with an auto-mated message advising themof an injury or death to a fam-ily member, and asking themto dial a long distance phonenumber that begins with *72.By dialing *72 and the phonenumber, the customer acti-vates the call-forwarding fea-ture on their line. This hasresulted in long distancecharges on the bill.

The operation of the callforwarding feature is the sameregardless of whether the cus-tomer is a monthly subscriberor activates it on a per-usebasis. Call forwarding can bedeactivated by pressing *73to clear the phone line. Cus-tomers should also know thatthe call forwarding feature canalso be activated by simplypressing 72#.

We strongly encourage ourcustomers to exercise extremecaution when accepting col-lect calls, forwarding calls, andpressing * and numbers. Pleaserefer to the CenturyTel Direc-tory Residential Service Call-ing Features and Services onPage 17. This page fully ex-plains the features and howthey can be activated or deac-tivated.

Diciembre 8, 2004 La Prensa—North Coast

Velásquez family, listenerscatch the wave of new and oldPuerto Rican, Cuban, Mexi-can, and Central & SouthAmerican music—salsa,reggaetón, cumbia, ranchera,bachata, merengue, mariachi,tejana, and even rap or hiphop.

They do it for the love ofthe music and to show every-one in the U.S. communitythat, yes, Latinos have tremen-dous cultural and creativepower.

The Velásquez family isoriginally from Ponce,Puerto Rico. There, Miltonand his brothers would singreligious songs in theirchurch, La Cuandragular.But they also liked to singon radio programs through-out the island. That’s howall the Velásquez familylearned to love music.

As time passed, Velásquezmoved to Lorain. He had beeninvited by an older brother,Porfirio, to relocate there. Hestarted working at Lorain’sFord factory, being employedthere for thirty years, retiringin 1998. Milton is married toElba Rivera and they haveparented four children.

Six years before Milton’sretirement, his brotherHeriberto, who was visitingfrom Puerto Rico, asked himwhy there was no Spanish

music on the radio. From thatsimple question grew a plan tocreate a radio station.

After much effort, Miltonand Heriberto secured a radiolicense from the FCC in thename of the Spanish CulturalNetwork—La Onda Cultural.Milton was left to find and buya site to put up the necessaryantenna, build a studio, andobtain the needed broadcast-ing equipment. That he did.

Milton found the site forWNZN at a corn field in BerlinHeights. He wisely chose alocation on the highest part ofthe county. He placed a sec-ond mortgage on his house topurchase five acres for build-ing an 88-meters tall antennaand a small studio building tobroadcast from.

The network has tried toobtain recognition as a non-profit organization, but, todate, has been unable to se-cure such status. If Milton com-plains about anything, it’sabout the lack of help to main-tain and improve the station.

“People don’t take intoaccount the cost and sacrificesof money that we have madeso they can hear the music.We’ve invested more than$150,000 in it,” saidVelásquez, in an exclusiveinterview with La Prensa.

Because of the radio’s fi-

nancial drain, Velásquez wasforced to mortgage his home asecond time. Heriberto helpswhen he can.

Radiothons, the most com-mon fund raising method forthis type of educational sta-tion, have not worked. Morebusinesses are needed to sup-port the unique, educationalprogramming. Most recently,Milton and his board haveresorted to sponsoring dinnersin the Latino community.

The station’s broadcastingequipment usually lasts sev-eral years. Due to a lack offunds, Velásquez usually pur-chases used equipment fromother stations. Also, lack ofroutine maintenance hascaused the station to stopbroadcasting from time-to-time. The last time was inApril of 2004—the blackoutlasted three and a half weeks.Two years earlier, Velásquezsent for a radio engineer fromPuerto Rico to fix certain de-fects with the equipment.

But Velásquez is optimis-tic—recently, IMG, a market-ing firm headed by business-man Richard Romero, begancoordinating with the stationto increase its sponsorshipsand funding.

This writer is associatedwith some of IMG’s businessactivities and promotions, in-cluding the Second AnnualThree Kings Baile scheduledfor January 8, 2005 at DelucasPlace in the Park in Lorain,sponsored by La Prensa, withthe assistance of La OndaCultural Latina. Both mediasheld a successful event lastJanuary at the same venue,with Sammy DeLeón andRoberto Ocasio performingand a skit performed by ClubTaino from Toledo.

This year’s baile will in-clude a special recognition ofRoberto Ocasio and his LatinJazz Project & Tropical JamOrchestra. Ocasio died in atragic automobile accidentseveral week’s after January’sbaile.

La Onda Cultural Latinacan be heard at 89.1FM, Mon-day through Friday, from9:00AM to 5:00PM.

Familia Velásquezmantiene La OndaCultural Latina a pesarde mal tiemposPor Teodosio Feliciano,Reportero de La Prensa

Milton Velásquez y su fa-milia se han dedicado amantener al aire la músicalatina en Lorain, Ohio por másde 13 años. Con muy pocaayuda ellos han sostenido laúnica radioemisora latina enel noroeste de Ohio.

WNZN 89.1 FM, La OndaCultural Latina, se puedeescuchar desde Huron hasta laparte oeste de Cleveland y tanal sur como Ashland. Graciasa Milton y su familia toda estaárea pude sintonizar las ondasmusicales de Puertorriqueña,Cubana, todas las variedadesmexicanas, y de los países decentro y sur América—salsa,reggaetón, cumbia, ranchera,bachata, merengue, mariachi,tejana, rap latina, hip hop, ymuchas más variedades musi-cales.

Lo hacen por el amor a lamúsica y para demostrar atodos, especialmente lacomunidad de EEUU, que sí,los latinos tienen una granpotencia cultural y creativa.

La familia Velásquez esoriginal de Ponce, Puerto Rico.Allí, él y sus hermanos seacostumbraban a cantarmúsica religiosa en su iglesia,La Cuadrangular. Más, le

gustaba cantar en lasradioemisoras de La Isla. Asídesarrollaron todos losVelásquez un amor a la música.

Con pasar el tiempo eljoven Milton se encontró enLorain. Fue invitado por unhermano, Porfirio, a trasladarseaquí. Pronto empezó a trabajaren la fábrica de autos Ford.Trabajó allí por treinta años,jubilándose en 1998. Él escasado con Elba Rivera y ellostienen cuatro niños.

Seis años antes de Miltonjubilarse, durante una visita aLorain su hermano Heribertole preguntó por que no habíamúsica latina en el radio. Deesa sencilla pregunta nació unplan de montar unaradioemisora.

Después de muchoesfuerzo, Milton y Heribertoobtuvieron una licencia parauna radioemisoraeducacional. Milton y suhermano establecieron laemisora bajo el nombre, TheSpanish Cultural Network, LaOnda Cultural Latina. Cayóa Milton buscar el local paraponer la antena, el estudio yconseguir el equipo. En esotambién tuvo éxito.

Milton encontró el localpara WNZN en una finca demaíz en Berlin Heights. Loescogió porque está en la partemás alta del condado.Hipotecó su casa para comprarlos cinco acres de terreno

donde esta situada una antenade 88 metros de altura y unacasita estudio para difundir lamúsica usando discoscompactos y otros programas.

A través de los años hantratado de conseguir ladesignación de organizaciónsin fines de lucro. Por falta deayuda adecuada el grupo hafracasado en conseguir estaimportantísima designación.¡Aunque la emisora eseducacional, paga impuestos!Si de algo se queja Milton espor la falta de apoyo enmantener y mejorar la emisora.

“La gente no se da cuentadel costo y sacrificio de dineroque hemos hecho para quepuedan escuchar música. Heinvertido más de $150,000 enella [la emisora].” contóVelásquez a La Prensa du-rante una entrevista exclusiva.Por ejemplo, debido a lanecesidad financiera de laemisora, Velásquez tuvo quehipotecar su vivienda porsegunda vez. Heriberto ayudacuando puede.

Radio maratones, elmétodo más común derecaudar fondos para este tipode emisora educacional no leha dado resultado. Son pocaslas empresas que se anuncian.

Recientemente, Milton ysu junta montaron cenas en lacomunidad hispana paraconseguir fondos para lasnecesidades de la emisora.

Who Says There Are No Good Teams In Michigan This Year? By: Jodi Heuvers

With the lockout of the Red Wings, the Tigers having had their normal season, the Lions trying their best to finish high in the standings and the Pistons just getting started, many fans are reaching for a team to root for this year. I have the perfect team for you – Estate Planning Institute Group, LLC, Estate Law, P.C., and Asset Protection Strategies. Some may know these companies separately, however,

they may not know what a great team these three companies have become. They are now located under one new roof in the Swanson Building at 24680 Swanson, Southfield, MI 48034 Founded in 1999 by Mr. Jay Melody, and originally

located in Bloomfield Hills, the Estate Planning Institute prides itself on educating thousands of people each year about the need for proper Estate and Financial Planning. It is one of the top companies providing this valuable information according to Stuart D. Kay, Chief Operating Officer of the Estate Planning Institute Group. Their toll-free number remains the same – 877-807-3477; however, their local business number is now 248-281-1100. “We feel that we will be able to service our existing

clients more proficiently in our new location, as well as have it act as a warm welcoming center for our new clients,” says Jay Melody. Once located in the quaint town of Plymouth, MI, Asset Protection Strategies has relocated as well. “Who wouldn’t want their financial planner in the same office building as their Estate Planner and their attorney?” said Mr. Ronald Cayce of Asset Protection Strategies.

Asset Protection Strategies continues to offer the same standard of service its clients are accustomed to, according to Dwight Cloutier of Asset Protection Strategies. The move brings a new local phone number of

248-281-1500, while their toll-free number of 877-342-7738 remains the same. The third piece of this team, Estate Law, has also

made the move from Bloomfield Hills to Southfield. Mr. Victor Potapenko, Principal of Estate Law, P.C. feels that “it’s an ideal situation for clients to be able to come into the office and see everyone they need to see in one stop.” Their toll-free number remains 800-228-4996; however, during normal business hours, the local phone number is now 248-281-1011. Every professional business needs to function as a

team in order to provide the best services. These three companies found a way to strengthen their team by moving into the same building. Clients questions and concerns can be addressed

immediately by this team of experts. There will be fewer phone calls and faster response time according to Kevin Mawhinney, J.D., Principal of Estate Law, P.C. Keep this information handy, as this is THE team

to root for during the 2004-2005 season, and beyond!

Why don't people plan? By Stuart D. Kay

Some of the common stumbling blocks older people face in planning for the future are: • Fear of losing control of resources. At times, older adults may fear that in making their finances an open book to a family member, attorney, accountant, or financial planner, someone will take over their resources, steal their money, or otherwise have them lose control over their finances (and therefore their lives). Many can remember the stock market crash of 1929 and the depression when backs failed. While there is (potentially) some reality to this concern, it is usually more of a psychological issue than a real one. One way to get around this is to address it directly, and be reassuring that the older adult in your life will make his/her decisions, not you or a financial planner. • Avoiding confronting one's own mortality. Looking at future financial plans almost always involves questions of an estate or a will, which in turn implies that an individual is going to die someday. A sizeable portion of the population do not have wills, one often given reason is that making a will reminds you that you will die and that thought is uncomfortable for many people.

There is no simple way around this issue. At the same time, talking about it (and your own mortality) can lead to positive outcomes both in financial planning and in the relationships in your family. • Fear of stirring up family conflicts. Families often have conflicts, hurts, and potentially volatile issues that only surface when there is a crisis or a decision to be made. Some families implicitly decide to avoid conflict by avoiding issues that may stir up the conflict. However, avoidance is, honestly, simply putting off the inevitable. It is frequently far better to raise a family conflict as a planning concern than to have to deal with it at a time of crisis. • Discomfort with deciding who should receive assets or be in charge of the estate. Parents have views and opinions about their children, all children are not viewed equally (be it accurately or not). Parents have the legal right to determine who gets what and who is to be in charge of their assets/estates. Children, on the other hand, may have very different views than parents about what should take place, who should be in charge, and who deserves what. Parents may not want to talk about these matters because they perceive that the children will have problems with the discussion. However, many experts recommend that these wishes should be made known in advance both for legal reasons and to help diminish the conflicts that will possibly take place at a later point when the wishes are made known.

A nursing home does not require you to spend your entire life’s savings! Are you or a loved one in a nursing home? It’s not too late to protect your assets!

Planning properly for your future can make a big difference in the way you live after retirement – you can maintain your same standard of living or end up living in poverty. Don’t let this happen to you! Call and speak with one of our estate planning attorneys.

Problematic issue concerns income tax

By: Izabella Larson

Let’s still use my hypothetical example and say at the time Jack and Jill were added to the home it was worth $200,000, meaning Jack and Jill as co-owners each received a $50,000 gift.

Fifteen years go by and both parents die, Jill is remarried, her husband has a great job, kids are in high school, same with Jack and, oh yeah, they live far enough away that moving is out of the question and so I managing the home, so they choose to sell it And it sells for $400,000. WOW, $200,000 for each child…wrong!

If they inherited the whole property when it was worth $400,000 and sold it, they don’t have to pay any income tax on that sale, but they didn’t. Both Jack and Jill have a basis of

$50,000 each in this property, the value of their gift, remember? So now they each owe income tax

on a gain of $150,000, that’s going to be one

big tax bill. And, because they didn’t live in the property

for 2 years, they lose the $500,000 gift exemption thatmarried couples receive for selling their own home. So, what do you think of joint tenancy now? It’s not a cure-all by any means.

Robin Buckson / The Detroit News

Consuela Alcala, 69, has cared for her mother for almost 30 years. Reflecting on her Hispanic culture, Consulea believes that has been a blessing. "You feel the mother gives of herself totally,

and it's well thought of to make sure she's in a home setting," Consuela said. "We look at our parents, and see the sacrifices they make. We think our parents deserve to have care from their families. It's a type of gratitude." The mother of 11 - seven still living, between the ages of 65 and 80 - Maria is the matriarch of a huge extended family of more than 100. Consuela dotes on her. When Maria stirs from sleep - about every four hours around the clock -Consuela hurries to her room, helps her into her chair and offers her food. Every night, relatives and friends come to

visit. Maria loves to be the center of attention. Her nails are manicured and painted with bright red polish, and her silver hair is swept up into a

pretty knot. Maria received her guests in a bedroom overflowing with dolls and religious icons. She speaks with them in Spanish. Hispanic families go to great lengths to keep their elders out of a nursing home, said Edith Colon, of the senior center at LA SED, a social and economic development group in Mexicantown. "You're taught to respect your elders. I see that respect when people bring their elders to the center," Colon said. Consuela feeds Maria, visits with her a little and then tucks her back into bed. Maria asks each of her guests for a goodbye kiss. She considers her long life a gift from God. "That's what God has willed," Maria said in Spanish. "God has loaned me life. That's the way it is."

Hispanics insist that elderly stay at homeBy: Karen Bouffard

The Detroit News - February 1, 2004

"You feel the mother gives of herself totally, and it's well thought of to make sure she's in a home setting," says Consuela Alcala, a Roman Catholic nun and teacher who, with help from friends and relatives, cares for her mother Maria Alcala, 108.

Detroit - In southwest Detroit's Mexicantown, it is common for Hispanic adults to care for aging parents, like 108-year-old Maria Alcala, for decades. Ca
