Sometimes, as a Baby Boomer myself who just turned 64, I get irritated when people accuse my generation of being self-ish and self-centered when my generation starts drawing Social Security and other re-tirement benefi ts.

Younger generations, understandably, are concerned that Social Security benefi ts will be markedly reduced when it comes time for them to start collecting their retirement checks. They resent having to pay

into a system now they see is going broke. That is a cause for concern, but before you Genera-tion X and Generation Y folks blame us “greedy’’ boomers, please consid-er some fairly recent his-tory of Social Security.

Mind you I had no say so in whether or not I wanted to pay Social Se-curity taxes. According to my records I paid my first amounts into the system way back in 1963. Throughout my working career I have been re-quired to pay into the

system and my employ-ers have been forced to match the amount.

Social Security’s prob-lems are not new. The system was broke way back in 1982 when Presi-dent Ronald Reagan ap-pointed a special com-mission to fi x the prob-lem. The commission decided to cut benefi ts and dramatically raise Social Security taxes.

The additional funds were to be kept, fi gura-tively, in a locked box and saved for future generations. Instead politicians being politi-cians raided the funds and now the system is paying out more money than it is taking in and

the locked box is empty.Phillip Longman wrote

a paper in 2008 entitled “The economic impact of aging U.S. Baby Boom-ers.’’ He was surprised to learn during his re-search how small the retirement nest egg was for baby boomers. At first he put down the dismal savings amount to free spending on the part of boomers.

However his research showed one reason for the small savings rate was the confi scatory tax rates paid by my genera-tion. He did a little math and mused what would have happened if a baby boomer at age 25 in 1983 had been allowed to

put just 2.1 percent of his annual salary into the stock market. Be-tween 1983 and 2006, the S&P 500 had its ups and downs but delivered a 10.9 percent annual return.

Using the power of compound interest Long-man concluded the Baby Boomer would end up with $450,000 at age 67! Instead the average nest age of retiring boomers today is about $85,000.

Longman also con-cludes it is too late for Baby Boomers to make up the lost opportunity, but he also says that we should not let our chil-dren and grandchildren fall into the same trap

we did. And he notes, “let us not forget who got us into the trap.’’

Social Security is lit-tle more than a Ponzi scheme which makes Bernie Madoff look like a piker. What the federal government will do to patch up the system is probably raise the tax-able amount that higher income earners pay into the system and raise the retirement age to, say, 70.

At the end of the day, don’t blame us Baby Boomers for taking So-cial Security benefits from a failing system we have been forced to pay into our entire working lives.

A Bum Rap for Boomers“People try to put us d-down (talkin’ bout my generation).’’ -My Generation by The Who, 1965

"We need to be honest with the president, with the Congress, with the American people" about the consequences of cut-ting the defense budget, said Secretary of Defense Robert Gates in his vale-dictory policy address to the American Enterprise Institute.

"(A) smaller military, no matter how superb, will be able to go few-er places and do fewer things."

Gates seeks to ignite a debate the country seems reluctant to have. With a federal budget running out of balance by 10 per-cent of gross domestic product, what are we Americans willing to sac-rifi ce? What are we willing to forego? What are we willing to cut?

The biggest budget items are Social Security, Medicare and defense. To Democrats, the first two are untouchables.

To most Republicans, defense is off the table. Indeed, the likelihood is that any budget deal to which both parties agree will contain escape claus-es to enable Congress to avoid the painful deci-sions and kick the can up the road.

Consider the situation the U.S. military faces.

The useful life of the planes, ships, missiles, guns and armor that date to the Ronald Reagan buildup of the 1980s is coming to an end, and the cost of replacement weapons is far greater. A fl eet of 2,440 F-35 Joint Strike Fighters, for ex-ample, will cost over $1 trillion.

Military health care costs have risen 150 per-cent in 10 years to $50 billion a year. The pay and benefi ts of today's forces, which are one-tenth the size of those we deployed in World War II, have seen

comparable increases. These costs are eating deeply into the dollars for new weapons systems.

And while we no longer face a Soviet Union with nuclear and conventional forces equal to our own, U.S. commitments have not been reduced but augmented since the end of the Cold War. Six War-saw Pact nations were brought into NATO, along with three republics of the old Soviet Union.

Meanwhile, the disar-mament of Europe con-tinues in the wake of the debt crisis. Of special concern are cuts by the Tory government of Great Britain, our most reliable ally for 70 years.

While the U.S. Army and Marine Corps have been shuttled in and out of Iraq and Afghanistan, China has fought no wars — but grown its defense budget by double-digits annually for two decades.

She now possesses submarines, missiles and aircraft suffi cient to chal-lenge the United States in the Western Pacifi c and is clearly intent on forcing

a U.S.strategic retreat from

the region."The tough choices

ahead," said Gates, are "about the kind of role the American people — accustomed to unques-tioned military domi-nance for the past two decades — want their country to play in the world."

We face the necessity of choice, and perhaps the place to begin is for Americans to ask two questions.

First, what is so vital to our security we must defend it at the risk of war? Second, what Cold War commitments can we relinquish now that the Soviet Empire no longer exists and Russia no lon-ger represents a global threat?

Once the Afghan War is over, certainly, a U.S. with-drawal from South and Central Asia would seem in order, as this is about as far from the United States as one can get.

The same would hold true of Korea. From 1950 to 1953, the United States,

with a 330,000-man army, fought both North Korea and China. At issue was not only the fate of the peninsula, but the ori-entation of Japan in the Cold War.

Today, Seoul has twice the people and 40 times the economy of the North. Pyongyang has no Stalin-ist Russia or Maoist China backing it up in a war with the South. Can we not now withdraw our remaining 28,000 troops and restrict our commit-ment in any new war to air and naval support?

China today not only claims Taiwan, but the Senkaku Islands that Ja-pan claims, and all of the islands in the South China Sea, which are also claimed by Vietnam, Ma-laysia, Indonesia and the Philippines.

Is it our obligation to validate all of these claims against China? What is our vital interest in any of these disputes when every president since Richard Nixon has agreed that Taiwan is part of China? Cannot these countries buy from us

the weapons to defend themselves?

Europe is as prosper-ous and more populous than the United States. And the Russian army is no longer in Germany, but 1,000 miles to the east, be-hind the Baltic republics, Belarus and Ukraine.

What is the necessity now for a U.S. troop pres-ence in Europe?

Retrenchment is rarely attractive. But what is ap-parent today to almost all is that this country is now and has been for at least a decade living far beyond her means.

We borrow hundreds of billions annually from allies, to defend those al-lies. We borrow hundreds of billions annually from our children's future to maintain our present life-style. Our leaders have yet to show the tough-ness and maturity the new times demand.

TEXARKANA - A Nash-ville school teacher has been suspended with pay after she was arrested on a theft charge.

According to a state-ment by the Texarkana, Texas Police Department, deputies took Heather Nicole Bostic, 27, into custody late Tues., May 17 after she was allegedly observed entering a de-partment store dressing

room with two dresses and exiting the dressing room with none.

According to the police report, witnesses told police that Bostic’s purse was “bulging” when she left the dressing area and that there were two empty hangers found inside fol-lowing her departure.

“Bostic was found to have two dresses in her possession believed to have been removed from the department store,” the

report stated.Bostic was transported

to the Bi-State Detention Center where she was booked on a charge of theft over $50 but less than $500, a class B mis-demeanor.

School Superintendent Doug Graham said Bostic was suspended with pay Tuesday morning “until more information and facts are gathered about the situation.”

“It’s absolutely critical for members of Congress to get out of Washington, come home and listen to the people they represent. That’s why I never moved to Washington and come home after the last vote each week. My job is to listen to the people I rep-resent and fi ght for them

in our nation’s capital. As I do each and every year, I’ll be hosting a public forum in each of the 29 counties that make up Arkansas’s Fourth Congressional Dis-trict,” said Ross.

Each meeting is open to the public. The town hall schedule for Nashville is as follows:

Tues., June 7 1:15 p.m. – Nashville Cossatot Community

College, 1558 Highway 371 West, Nashville.

In addition to these town hall meetings, Ross has also been hosting a se-ries of monthly telephone town hall meetings since January for people who often cannot attend town hall meetings in person, such as working families,

parents of small children and senior citizens. The next call is scheduled for June 21 at 7:00 p.m. and any Fourth District resident can dial in by calling 1-877-269-7289 at the scheduled time and entering the PIN#: 14573.

“These monthly tele-phone town halls are an easy and convenient way for all residents of Arkan-sas’s Fourth Congressio-nal District to participate in the political process from the comfort of their own home,” said Ross. “Often times, people can’t take off of work or leave their home to attend one of my town hall forums in person, so I continue to receive very positive feedback from all over the district about these

calls. They’re easy, conve-nient and I fi nd them very valuable and helpful as I do my best to represent Arkansas.”

Town halls for the rest year will be announced in the media as they are scheduled and will be posted online at ross.house.gov/events. They will also be announced on Facebook at facebook.com/RepMikeRoss, on Twitter at twitter.com/RepMikeRoss, and in Ross’s weekly e-newslet-ter, which any resident can subscribe to at ross.house.gov by clicking on the e-news signup icon. As always, residents may also call Ross’s Wash-ington office toll free at 1-800-223-2220 for more information.

Ross announces first in a series of town hall forums

By Sheriff James Singleton

Hempstead County Sheriff’s office has re-ceived a $7,609.00 grant from the Administrative Offi ce of the Courts, Su-preme Court of Arkansas Court Security & Emer-gency Preparedness.

To install a Video /Au-dio Arraignment system in the Hempstead Coun-ty Jail and Courthouse.

The application was submitted last year but was not funded, however it was considered and re applied for this year and was accepted and funded. The Hempstead County Sheriff’s Office received the funds last

Thursday and will begin a bid process in the com-ing weeks for the system.

The system when in-stalled will increase the security in the Hemp-stead County Courthouse, County Jail, and the gen-eral public that utilizes the courthouse for other than court proceedings.

It will eliminate the need for an inmate to be taken from the jail and transported to the courthouse where they could come in contact with the general public.

This wi l l increase the safety of not only the court officials but other offices located in the courthouse where inmates may come in con-tact with the public, fam-

ily members, victims, or victim’s family members.

The system will im-prove efficiency of the arraignment (fi rst appear-ance) process while re-ducing the risks associ-ated with confrontation, escape, and smuggling of contraband to the jail.

Normally when an in-mate is arraigned in the courtroom extra guards are needed to trans-port them and remain present during the ar-

r a i g n m e n t p ro c e s s . With the video arraign-

ment system the Judge will be able to arraign the individuals from the courtroom, Judges Cham-bers, or his offi ce, while the individual remains in a secure location.

The system can also be used for mental compe-tency hearings thus reduc-ing the travel time to and from the state hospital.

M U R F R E E S B O R O - During a Memorial Day weekend visit to Crater of Diamonds State Park, Des Moines resident Troy Smith discovered a one-of-a-kind souvenir while wet sifting at Arkansas’s diamond site—a stunning 1.97-carat white diamond.

Smith, a service techni-cian who fi rst heard about Crater of Diamonds State Park as a child, had want-ed to try diamond mining for years and fi nally had a chance to travel to Arkan-sas over the holiday week-end. According to Park Interpreter Waymon Cox, “Most people don’t think they’ll fi nd a diamond here during their visit, let alone

Visitor from Iowa f inds 1 .97 - ca ra t white diamond at Crater of Diamonds

find one this quickly!” Smith had searched for less than 30 minutes be-fore fi nding his gem.

Smith’s diamond was the 273rd gem certified by park staff this year. So far, 16 diamonds have weighed over one carat in 2011.

The park is open sev-en days a week, closing only on Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day. For more in-formation, contact the park at 870-285-3113 or by e-mail at [email protected]. Or visit www.CraterofDia-

C. YoungMatthew 8:13, Then Je-

sus said to the centurion, “Go! It will be done just as you believed it would.”

And his servant was healed at that very hour.

Mark 9:23, “‘If you can’?’ said Jesus. ‘Everything is possible for him who believes.’

Mark 11:23, “I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.”

Mark11:24, Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

What if it is true? What if everything you

prayed about hinged on a simple choice to believe

or not to believe?I m m e d i a t e l y t h e

thought comes to me that everything I have prayed about and believed came to pass and everything that I prayed about that I did not believed did not come to pass.

Wow, how about you? Think about all you

have prayed about. Now think about all you

have believed and all you haven’t believed.

Now think about what has come to pass and what has not come to pass.

So what if it is true? Do our prayers become

less because of what we believe or do our beliefs

become more because of what we pray?

The choice may not seem so simple now. If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.’

Matthew 21:22. But it is a simple choice

and the choice is yours to make.

What if it is true?

What if it is true The annual Ladies’ Night Out at First Baptist Churc in Nashville, will be Tues., July 19, at 6:30 p.m. in the church’s Family Activity Building. The theme for this year’s event is “Refl ecting His Glory.” The speaker will be Andrea Lennon. An-drea lives in Conway with her husband, Jay, and two sons, Jake and An-

drew. She serves the Lord through a teaching and writing ministry called “True Vine Ministry.” True Vine Ministry exists to encourage and equip women in God’s Word by exploring biblical princi-ples and translating them into real life application. With transparency and love, Andrea shares the Word of God and chal-

lenges women to know deep in their hearts the life-changing truths writ-ten in the pages of the Bible. There will be a meal and door prizes. For tickets call First Baptist Church at 845-1404. Tick-ets are $10 each. This year only 500 tickets will be printed so ladies need to call early for tickets.

bull rider’s vest as if he

were playing a musical

instrument. It delineates a

triangle whose focus is the

expression on the bullrid-

er’s face.

You can’t see the bull-

fi ghter’s eyes, they’re shaded by the brim of his

hat. There is no facial con-

tortion, no clinched jaw, no grimace or gritting of

teeth, no manifestation

of the full-bore chaos in

which he is immersed.

He’s poised at the center of

a hurricane, as engrossed

as an astronaut manipu-

lating his fl aming shuttle back into the atmosphere.

If you blocked the bull

and the rider out of the

picture, the bullfi ghter could just as easily be a man watching the dial go

round at a gas pump, or

shopping for avocados, or

tightening a bolt at a ship-

yard. His calm concentra-

tion belies no panic. Yet he

is mid-air, on the cusp of

a clean escape... or bone

crunching collision.

Rodeo clowns, bull-

fi ghters and barrelmen are categorized as ‘personnel’

in rodeo parlance, along

with secretaries, timers

and announcers. That’s

like categorizing a kamak-

azi pilot with the guy that

washes his windshield!

I have known many ro-

deo clowns over the years.

I’ve never known one who

is not serious about his

job. Every time the gate swings open they walk

into the tiger cage armed

with courage, quick re-

fl exes, and experience tempered under fi re. And when it comes together

like it does in this photo, it

demonstrates all the grace

and guts and glory that we

associate with the super-

human aspects of our cow-

boy game…rodeo!

ing on Wacey Munsell.

From The Barnyardby Mike Graves

Goodnight Ethel, good-night Lady-Bird, good-

night John Boy... I’ve had

my chocolate milk, and

I’m ready for bed.

And if you have trou-

ble sleeping occasionally,

I suggest you join me in hoisting a cold glass of my

brother Stephen’s favor-

ite drink: chocolate milk.

Man, he loves his “chocky

milk.” I love chocolate

milk, too, and after a twen-

ty-year abstinence from

the elixir, I’ve joined the ranks of adults who drink

it daily.

(Yeah, I hear Dennis

Horn saying, “Who cares?

Get on with your stupid

column.” Maybe no one

cares, but my mom says I

don’t have to mind my old

junior high principal any-more.)

The photograph is

spread across two pages

of the Rodeo Sports News.

In the upper right hand

corner is written “Worth a

Thousand Words.”

The subjects in the pho-to are the bull, bull rider

and bullfi ghter. The rider, wearing his helmet and

protective vest, appears

to be coming out from un-

der the bull’s front legs in

the position of a sprinter

pushing off the blocks.

The bullfi ghter is directly behind the rider and di-

rectly in front of the bull’s

obscured head. The bull’s

hind end is in the air and

the bull rope has come

loose.

As one tries to untangle

the action blurred by fl y-ing dirt, it appears that

each of the subjects has one foot on the ground!

Most of the rodeo pho-

tos feature action shots of

rough stock riders making

a classic ride.

But in this particular

photograph, the left page

shows only the bull’s

body from the elbow back.

When looked at alone it

seems so benign. Like a

leather-covered sofa being

dropped from a two story

building just about to hit the ground!

When you open up the

centerfold, you realize this

1800-pound sofa is throw-

ing itself into the ravel of

chaps, legs, feet, arms,

horns and heads!

Your eye is immedi-

ately drawn to the right

horn. It’s maybe 16 inches

long, too thick for a man to

reach around, and tipped.

The sawed-off tip looks

like the eye on a hammer-

head shark. This angle of

the horn indicates it is a

nanosecond away from

crashing into the sprinting

cowboy!

Your eye travels up the

bullfi ghter’s right arm to his face then back down to

where his right hand rests

on the protruding horn.

Over to the fi ngers of his left hand, with thumb up-

raised, which appears to

be lightly pressing on the

There is relevance in

my bringing up the deep

subject of chocolate milk, and that is the debate on

whether fl avored milk should be allowed in pub-

lic schools.

The Coercive Utopi-

ans who tell our food su-

pervisors what they can

and can’t offer little Sue

and Johnny to eat, believe

themselves wiser than the

parents and are now insist-

ing we take out anything

they deem unfi t. It’s all about the sugar in the milk

and the connection with

childhood obesity.

“Chocolate milk is an

extremely nutrient dense

food, and the only place

many young people will

get the calcium their

growing bodies need is at

school.

We can’t serve whole

milk, and only offer 2

percent regular or fl a-vored milk. Next year we

will serve only 1 percent

milk, as mandated by the

government,” stated NHS

Food Supervisor Tina

Conzel.

This restriction could

be a mistake, according

to Men’s Fitness articles

I’ve received. The fi tness gurus are telling us that

we should drink some

chocolate milk after we

work out, especially active

teens. And it sure helps me

sleep at night.

So, “Irene good night,

Irene good night,

Good night Irene, good

night Irene,

I’ll see you in my

dreams.” -- Good Night

Irene, Huddie Ledbetter

(Hopefully not Dennis

Horn in my nightmares.)

“In the scientifi c fi eld, the principle of freedom

must be used to dispel

ignorance, prejudice and strife.” -- Torkam Saradar-

ian, PHD

The investigator said Johnson “had bite marks on him.”

Chief Deputy Bryan

McJunkins and Deputy Jade Hughes found the other men involved in the altercation. “The guys said Brandon pulled a gun on them.” According to Glidewell, offi cers found a .38 pistol and marijuana in Johnson’s car and on him.
