Folk Arts Apprenticeship Program Grant admin- interest you: The happiest retirees - those who feel financially prepared for retirement This finding, from a study by Harris Interactive, a nuyor polling firm, may not be shocking. After all, you would worried about outliving their income. But you might be surprised by another finding gleaned from thestudy: Retirement happiness is directly linked to the number of years you've been saving for retirement, rather than-younet worth - although the two factors are certainly related Just how long do you need to save before you can feel you're financially prepared for retirement? In reality, there's probably no one "right answer, because everyone has different goals for retirement Nonetheless, the Harris survey does point to some interesting numbers: 61 percent of those who saved for 25 years or more said they were extremely satisfied with retirement 51 percent of those who saved for 15 to 24 years said they were extremely satisfied. 46 percent of those who saved for less than 15 years said they were extremely satisfied. The lesson seems dear: Start saving for retirement as early as you can. By putting time on your side, you greatly increase your chances of eiyoying your retirement years. The Harris survey didnt just ask respondents about how long they had been saving and investing. Another question was designed to relate retirees' happiness with the type of investments they had accumulated. The findings? The happiest retirees investment portfolios were well diversified. Stocks made up of the bulk of then retirees holdings, with smaller allocations in fixed-incosecuritiesBiid real estate. Apparently, maintaining a diversified array of. investments helped contribute to the respondents feelings of being well prepared for retirement. The survey's results support many other studies that, over the years, have shown the value of diversification. But you can diversify your portfolio in many different wys. To determine which mix of investments is appropriate for you, consider the following: Your goals - What do you plan to do during retirement? If you envision traveling around the world and maintaining a couple of houses, your investment income needs will be far different than those ofyour neighbor who plans to stick close to home and do some consulting. risk tolerance. Time horizon - Your proximity to retirement will also help shape your investment mix. If youre many years away from retiring, you may want to invest more aggressively, because you have time to bounce back from short-tervolatility. But if youre ony a few years away from retirement, you might want to shift some - but certainly not all - your investment dollars into more stable, conservative vehicles. There you have it: To be happy you need to invest for many years beforehand, and you need to be properly diversified. Take action soon - the ftiture will be here before you know it m g. g: deadline is Dec. 31. Due to limited funding, only eight to tun apprenticeships can lie awarded each year.

Mike Leavitt and the Utah Humanities Council. By Darren Jones On Saturday, Nov. 9, Larry Cesspooch, Ute Tribe Olympic coordinator received one ofthe five Merit Annual Governors Awards in the Humanities program provides an opportunity for the Utah The 15,k Humanities Council to recognize individuals and institutions who promote and celebrate humunity and the arts. Cesspooch oversaw the creaMon and operation of an exhibition which depicted the culture of the Ute Indian Tribe during the weeks leading up to the Olympics as well as the three weeks the Olympics were being performed. in diamThe tall, eter teepee was set up ut Soldier Hoi low, and was approxi mntcly 3 stories high. One of the largest teepees ever made, the exhibit contained examples of Ute life. When you came into the teepee exhibit, right awov the visitor wus given an inside look of what a traditional teepee would contain. Buffalo skins, reeds for sleeping and pine limbs for fragrance were there for all to see, Cesspooch explained. The UHC grant of $5,000 also provided Bindings for panels to displuy information on Ute culture. "Thiswasa popular exhibit, apluce out from the cold, with wooden floors and 30 Olympic volunteers helped make the teepee experience the success it was, stated Cesspooch. An average of 3,000 people came to the exhibit during the Olympics, the volunteers even had to urge people along with so many in the teepee." Panels on displuy introduced the Ute culture to people from around the globe who gathered for the Olympic sporting events. The exhibit included ancient Ute histoiy ns well as the current status of toduy's Ute Tribe. Other display panels showcased the Ute Reservations geography and geology touching on the Ute philosophy of the land and land use. In addition, the exhibit depicted the reservation's way of life, social und ceremonial gatherings and the wildlife of fish and deer from the urea. Other panels depicted the unique Bear Dunce and puw wows, and included the present ciTorts of jolts, education, and technology on the Reservation. We were glad the Ute Tribe wus given an opportunity to share their culture at the Olympics because we are e original people that Utah was named after, saidCesspixich. lie received the 2002 Merit Award for recognition of the exemplary quul-wer- e ity of the project." The Ute Tribe exhibit was also on display fur the International Paralympics thill followed a month after. 42-fo- ot RECOGNITION Larry Cesspooch (pictured recipients of one of five 2002 Merit Awards Humanities Council. The award ceremony was Performing Arts Center Salt Lake City. The Cesspooch for the Ute Tribe Olympic exhibit. Two weeks ago I suggested the existenceof wordless poems and cited one-b- y the ancient Greek philosopher poet Heraclitus. Other examples of such expression also come to mind. Another ancient Greek, Diogenes, went around with a lantern in oread daylight, you may recall, searching for an man, as he explained when queried. Biblical prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel similarly acted out their poetic metaphors. Like Diogenes they also went on to explain them when pressed. Ezekiel, at the Lord's behest, shouldered a bundle of his belongings, duga hole through the wall of the city, and set off on the other aide as though taking- a journey. As he went he kept his face covered so as not to ground. He did all this in the sirtit of his fellow citizens. When asked the meaning of his actions, he explained, aa the Lord instructed him, "I am vour sign: like as I have done, so shall it be done unto you... And the prince... shall bear upon his shoulder in the twilight, and ahull go lbrth....he shall cover his face, that he see not the ground with his eyes." He will be taken to Babylon, "yet shall he not see it, though he shall die honest-to-goodne- right) and Karen Kriegcr for the Governors Utah held at the Rose Wagner award was presented to ss - there. Thus Ezekiel's actions prefigured Zedekiah's being taken into captivity, along with his people, and being deprived of his eyesight. Similarly Isaiah and his wife conceived a son at the Lords command and called his name Immanuel. The New Testament writers interpreted this as prefiguring Christ's birth and mission. Handel's "Messiah so interprets it. a really fine job with this produc- tion and the piay itself is a wonderful piece of theater. Among the highlights of the play Evilina, the baddest of bad witches, and her retinue of kiddie cats and spider. Their song and dance did routines, with Evilina (Shea Hansen) belting out the verses with the moat wonderful malice and theothers providing the refrain with gusto and grace, were a real treat. Loved those cats and that creepy Binder (Tayva Pure). And wasnt the prime minister a wonderful old geezer? Great, gutsy portrayal by Hyrum Gillespie. The play has just the right balance of deprecating humor and serious drama. The playwrights quest motif ia a instance of a reluctant adolescent hero (Duwane Redmond in this production) winning hia spurs by confronting and overcoming daunting obstacles to reach and rescue his damsel in distress (Tambra Pure). Thorns and dark knight performed their obstructive roles quite effectively, and that monstrous-th- at HUGE dragon was a wonderful creation. Thanks to Tana Dunsmore, Pat Stringham, and their wonderful cast and crew for a memorable evening. well-manag- ed need a place for your Christmas Party q Do you .
