he saying about thesilver lining in the cloudcould describe AngeloMs pathway to his musiccareer to a T. Hes asinger and songwriterwho performs on guitar,
mandolin, Dobro and harp. Hes also
a stellar example of one who makeslemonade from lemons and creates athriving second career later in life.
Today hes a respected Lancaster-area blues musician with a loyal localand national following and has foundhis niche in this second career. etransition from steelworker to musicianwasnt an easy one, but starting anothercareer later in life is something manypeople can identify with. ey also
identify with his folksy songs thatfeature a slice of Americana.Angelo M (his surname is Melasecca)
is originally from the Philadelphia area.e youngest of four boys, all of hisbrothers were teenagers before he couldwalk, so he grew up listening to themusic playing on their radios. Althoughno one else in his family really playedan instrument when he was growing up,
Angelos 94-year-old dad is a self-taught
harmonica player, who learned theinstrument later in his life. Dad alwayswanted someone to play the organ,he recalls. However, Angelo took aninterest in the guitar when he waseight-years old.
He worked in a steel mill for nearly30 years. With his pension ve monthsaway, he dreamed of a retirement thatincluded traveling and taking up long-forgotten hobbies that included playing
the guitar. e companys suddenbankruptcy meant not only the lossof his job, but also the pension. ecompany was bought out, and since ithad been a union shop, he and a numberof his co-workers could keep their jobsbecause of the contract, but they wouldhave to start over with their pensions.
I was 48 at that time. I liked my joband music was my hobby I played atsome local clubs. I really looked long and
hard at my life and what I wanted from
life. I really didnt want to start over
again. Many of my co-workers didnthave a choice, but I had the option ofmusic and it seemed to be the right timeto do something, he explains.
So he shifted gears and fell back onhis music. He not only stepped up hisperformance schedule, but he also beganwriting. With what I had been through,what else could I do but write a bluessong he says with a smile.
His wife, Jody Murphy, is also his
manager. e two share a love of music.ey met in the 90s at the PhiladelphiaFolk Festival. She encouraged him toexpand into writing songs as well asperforming. His guitar inuences comefrom legends such as Ry Cooder, Chet
Atkins, Duane Allman and Leo Kottke.Angelo started playing music
festivals and received a standingovation at Johnstown FolkFest. He wasdeemed One of the Highlights at the
Kalamazoo (MI) Blues Festival and was
selected from more than ve hundred
artists to perform at the Falcon RidgeFolk Festival (NY) Emerging
Artist Showcase.Festivals are awesome. ey book
so many entertainers theres musiceverywhere and theres so much energy.Its a great place to get a lot of experienceas a performer and to have fun doing it,he says.
And he says that Lancaster is anamazing place for music there are lots
of clubs and bars that oer live music.He credits the Lancaster DispensingCompany (known as DipCo by those inthe music scene) with helping boost hiscareer, and he returns there to performperiodically. I love playing small,intimate places you really get the feelof the audience, he says.
Hes performed several times onNational Public Radios River City Folk.
Angelo M.s music is featured in the PBS
Television series RoadTrip Nation, is
slated for an indie lm soundtrack and,
garnered songwriting honors in theprestigious Mountain StageNewSong contest.
His song, Every Kind of Blues, wasselected from thousands as a nalist inBillboards 17th World Song Contest andreceived a Gold/First Place in Blues inthe 27th Mid-Atlantic Song Contest.
His two successful self-released albums Far From Home released in 2005,and Steel Work, released in 2009
brought him to the attention of folks inNashvilles music scene, and hes signed acontract with Music City Veterans.
From Steel to Strings, his rstalbum with Creative and Dreams MusicNetwork, was released earlier this year,and Angelo says that during the next twoyears he will come up with music for twonew albums.
Creative and Dreams Music Networkis a team of music industry veterans
that focuses on emerging talent. Angelois excited about working with this teamand continuing to develop his music. Notonly has music provided some nancialstability and allowed him to explore hiscreative side, it has also helped both himand Jody realize the dream of traveling.Hes played venues in Portland, OR;
Virginia Beach; Atlanta; Kalamazoo, MI;Dewey Beach; and Beaufort, NC. HisEuropean debut was in Limerick, Ireland.
A music career forged by life
Hometown got me down, UncleSam came around fghtin or theCountry think I saw it on the evening
news I got every kind o blues~ from Every Kind of Blues
FAST FACTSAngelo is the ather o fve, The youngest is 20. He says that all o thechildren are into music and theyve all been super supportive andencouraging o his music career.
Perormers that inspired him As a child I remember that mybrothers listened to a lot o Elvis, so I was inuenced by his sound,he says. Angelo says hes a huge John Prine and Bonnie Raitt an their style o olk music inspired him.
What does he do prior to a perormance? Jody helps me get ready togo on stage. I try to relax as much as I can, but a bit o nervousnesswill never go away and thats good since it keeps me on my toes.His thoughts on being a musician or artist You do it because you enjoyit; theres not necessarily a lot o money in it. You have to be committedto your crat.Other interests: Periodically he teaches an electrical course atArcelorMittals Coatesville acility (ormerly the Lukens Steel acility).Hes also interested in renewable energy.

1. Early IRA
withdrawals and
401(k) distributions
Withdrawals from IRAsbefore age 59 1/2 are
generally subject to a 10
percent early withdrawalpenalty. However, this
penalty may be avoided if
substantially equal periodicpayments are taken from the
IRA based on life expectancy
for at least ve years, or
until age 59 1/2, whicheveris longer. The same early
withdrawal penalty generallyapplies to withdrawalsfrom 401(k) plans that are
made before age 59 1/2.
However, individuals whoare at least 55 years of age
when leaving a job can
begin to take penalty-freedistributions from a 401(k),
although federal and stateincome taxes will still be due
upon withdrawal.
2. Minimum IRA
distributions
Minimum distributions must
be made from Individual
Retirement Accounts (IRAs)by April 1 of the year after
individuals turn 70 1/2years old. Withdrawals
must begin by December 31
of this year and continueeach year thereafter. The
penalty for failing to take
minimum IRA distributions
is 50 percent of the amountthat should have been
withdrawn.
3. Timing of receiving
Social Security benets
Currently, you may elect
to begin receiving Social
Security benets as early as
age 62. However, you willreceive a larger payment
each month if you wait until
your full retirement age of67 (if you were born after
1959) and an even larger
monthly payment still if youwait until age 70 to begin
receiving benets.
4. Enrolling in
Medicare Part B
Currently, Americans areeligible to enroll in Medicare
at age 65. Once eligible,
though, you must enroll inMedicare Part B (which
covers outpatient servicesand doctors appointments)
within three months of your
65th birthday. Otherwise,a late-enrollment penalty
may apply that would
boost the premium amount
by 10 percent for eachyear thats delayed.
Note that thispenalty is waived
for individuals whomaintain health
insurance through anemployer (or a spouses
employer). However,it is retroactive ifenrollment is not
completed within therequired time frameafter this coverage
terminates.
Given the potentiallong-term nancial impact
of these and other decisions,
it may be advisable to seekprofessional assistance from
a nancial planner and/or
tax expert in making them.
Important
decisions forretirees andnear-retireesTe years immediately precedingretirement, and the rst couple of yearsof actual retirement, are a critical time forindividuals. After carefully planning anddiligently saving for retirement most oftheir lives, individuals must make someimportant decisions during this time.Some of these decisions fall into the

One o the mostannoying thingsabout being aBoomer is theadded worries,the addedconcerns, the
dded stuf that we have tohink about now. I understandhat with our added years
comes added lie to thoseears. And I do know therere details that have to be
considered with everything.e have jobs, mortgages, kids,
pouses, relatives and gymemberships. Were grown-ups.
But or Petes sake, just when
DID everything get so darnedcomplicated? And does it really
ave to be that way?
Im not talking aboutwanting to return to childhoodand only having homeworkto think about though,honestly, there are days whenthat is tempting. And Im nottalking about not having anyresponsibilities at all. Weve
always had responsibilities.And thats good because itsthose responsibilities that makeour lie richer. I understandthat. But somehow, to me, inour Baby Boomer years, ourresponsibilities have gottenbigger, more serious andmore intense.
ake or example, health.O course we are going to allhave more health issues aswe get older. But or many ous Baby Boomers, now is thetime when it really starts tohit the an. With each passingbirthday routine physical testsand exams get a little more uh physical. And that littleache, pain or bump is no longernecessarily just that little ache,
pain or bump that will go awayon its own. Now its a rupture,rip, break, or tumor ... needing
treatment, surgery, rehab andrecovery time.
Concerns or our childrenhave also gotten bigger. Toughat the time it didnt seem thisway, I remember when mychildren were small their liedetails were also really very
small, just like they were. Ocourse there were worries, butsomehow the worries seemedmuch simpler and much moremanageable then. I rememberas a young mother one o mybiggest concerns was makingsure I had a purple shirt readyor my daughter to wear onpurple day at preschool. Fastorward to the present and theteenage years and now I have tothink about sex, drugs and rockand roll. And thats just onthe internet.
Years ago problems with ourparents would climax aroundthe holidays when we had tocoordinate where we werevisiting and or how long.Whose turn is it this year? Ourbiggest worry revolved aroundhow we were going to make it
over the river and through thewoods on time without tickinganyone of. Now with agingparents we have to managescary health issues, ailingmemories, nursing homes, andtaking dads car keys away.
Te United States just had
a very important presidentialelection and most Americanswere seriously caught up in it.I was no diferent. I comparedboth candidates, I watched thedebates, I watched interviewsand I read a great dealabout them.
While gathering all thisinormation, it got me thinking
about how the issues thatare important to me now areprobably very diferent romthe ones I thought about in mytwenties. At the age o 50, whileconsidering the two candidates,my mind went to the economy,healthcare and social security. Ithought really hard about thiscountry, what we stand or andabout my childrens uture. Andyes, I worried about who ournext president would be. I spent
a tense election night with JaneDoe and some other Boomerswaiting or the results tocome in.
I was proud o my 50-year-oldsel or taking it all so seriouslyand or being knowledgeableo the issues. I then tried to
remember what I thought aboutduring my rst elections when I was in my late teens andearly twenties. Just what wentthrough my head during thosetimes? What was important tome then?
Ten I remembered aquestion that was asked duringthe MV Enough is Enough
political orum with PresidentBill Clinton (April 19, 1994)and I got my answer.
Amid questions about drugsand crime, Bosnia, violencein schools, and teen suicide,one question stood out: Mr.President, the worlds dying toknow: is it boxers or bries?

There are thousands of
people who anxiouslyanticipate the arrival
of winter. Armed
with gloves and
boots, these winter
enthusiasts cant wait to frolic
in the drifts of snow. Still, there
are many others who would much
prefer sipping tropical drinks on
sun-kissed beaches to freezing
weather and down-lled coats.
Once the temperature begins
to dip, fans of warmer weather
may begin the anxious dance
that is trying to nd a winter
travel excursion. While there are
some deals to be had, the clever
traveler is one who begins the
process as early as possible.
According to Clem Bason,
president of Hotwire Group, the
winter season is ripe with travel
deals. He oers that the rst few
weeks of December are the key
times to get the cheapest fares all
year long.
Tis is not the only secret to
winter travel. Follow these other
suggestions for saving on your
next getaway.
Book early.
I you know that each year you start toget antsy around the middle o winter,
then plan annual vacations around this
time. Make sure you request the time of
rom work and buy your tickets several
months beore.
Know peak travel dates.
Tere are certain times during the
winter when you probably will pay a
premium or travel. Te holiday season
tends to be the most expensive time totravel during the winter. Be exible with
travel dates, and you could see your rate
drop considerably i you travel just a day
or two later.
* Sign up or a hotel reward program.
Chain hotels requently ofer member
incentives. By signing up or a rewards
program, you can accrue travel points
that can be used toward hotel stays and
other benets. Being loyal to a particularhotel brand can help you collect
points aster. Plus, some chains ofer
nonadvertised deals specically to their
reward members.
Think about booking a package deal.
Many resort properties partner with
car rental companies and airlines to put
together packages. Packages may be less
expensive overall than booking each
individual element separately.
Look into alternative
accommodations.When planning a vacation, many
travelers turn to hotels or their
accommodations. However there are
other avenues or afordable rooms.
Web sites like Vacation Rental By Owner
(www.vrbo.com) enable individuals
with rental homes, condominiums or
timeshares to sublet their properties to
deal seekers. You may be able to nd an
afordable place at a raction o the cost
o comparable hotels in the area.
Consider a timeshare.
I you travel at the same time each year
and want a designated place to stay
without hassle, timeshares could be the
ideal situation. A timeshare is typically
an apartment in a resort property that
is jointly owned by people who use it at
diferent times. Sometimes it is possible
to trade timeshares among others so thatyou can vary or upgrade where you stay.
Still save with ski trips.
I youre not jetting of to the tropics but
in search o the perect powder, land a
deal by skiing at the beginning or end
o the season. Also, keep track o the
conditions at ski resorts. I the weather is
questionable, you can probably book trips
at a discount and avoid the crowds. I
you like the atmosphere o a ski town butdont really like to ski, book a trip prior to
the rst snowall when you can enjoy the
shops and the town without the hassle o
ellow tourists.
Check with your credit card company
about exclusive cardmember deals.
Credit card companies can ofer special
members-only deals on travel. Whatsmore, being a member o a warehouse
store like Costco or BJs could entitle you
to discount travel packages when booked
through their own travel centers.
Be fexible.
Some o the best deals to be had come
when you can depart at a moments
notice. I youre not hampered by
schedules, check out the last-minuteoferings o resorts and travel sites.
G hbetwinr
ravldals
Wintertime is a
season ripe with travelopportunities. Whether
youre escaping the cold
or ying directly to a
ski resort, employ some
strategies for getting the
best prices possible.

The ood cooked
during the holidays
is oten enough to
eed an army. Too
oten, hosts and
hostesses prepare
nd serve much too much ood,
only to fnd themselves let with
rerigerator ull o letovershen guests dont eat as much
s hosts had planned.
In order to avoid wasting ood,
any people attempt to create
ew meals rom their excess
oliday ingredients. Putting
etovers to good use can take a
ittle ingenuity to disguise the
eality that youre eating turkey
or ham or the third consecutive
ight. All it may take is a little
nspiration to create delicious
eals with repurposed
oliday oods.
e frst thing to keep in
ind when using letovers is
ood saety. Any ood remaining
ter the holiday meal should be
acked into storage containersnd rerigerated or rozen no
ore than 2 hours ater the
eal has ended. is ensures
hat bacteria are not able to
rolierate in the ood and
cause oodborne illnesses.
Choose shallow containers,
hich will enable the ood to
chill more uniormly and not
create warmer spots that takeonger to reach a sae storage
emperature. Do not save any
oods that have remained at
oom temperature or too long
or seem questionable, especially
dairy products. It is adviseable
o discard letovers (even i
erigerated) ater 4 days. Use it
or lose it!
What to do with all those

potatoes and bake into a moistand delicious sweet potato loabread.
7. Create open-acedsandwiches or lunch bylayering ham or turkey, stufng,cranberry sauce and gravy ontop o a thick slice o bread.
8. Diced meats, vegetables andonion can be added to a batter
o pancake mix and turned intoan easy quiche.
9.Host Mexican night and useletover turkey meat to makespicy ajitas, complete with sourcream and salsa.
10.
Use stale bread to makehomemade croutons or salador use in a bread puddingrecipe.
11.Add cranberry sauce toboxed mufn mixes or a tarttreat.
