IRS offers tax deductions for parents of dependent students There are two things that are said to be unavoidable in life death and taxes. However, the IRS is working to make paying the latter as painless as possible for students. This year, the IRS is offering three tax breaks which will allow anyone claiming a student as a dependent to claim the costs ofattending higher education as deductions or tax credits. "Many students don't know about these tax breaks, nor do their parents," said Evelyn Fisher, IRS employee. The first is the Hope Credit, which is available only for the first two years a student is in college. Thc Hope Credit can be redeemed for up to $1,500 for each year. To qualify for this credit, students must be in an undergraduate degree program and be enrolled as a part time student for at least one semester. The other education credit is the Lifetime Learning Credit, which allows a tax credit reward of $1,000 per year for every year thc student is enrolled in a post secondary education institution. Students who wish to qualify for the Lifetime Learning Credit do not have to be in a degree program, and are qualified as long as they are taking at least one course at an accredited school.

The tuition and fee tax deduction can be worth up to three thousand dollars. The fees and tuition that may be claimed for the deduction are tuition and fees required for enrollment, but thc deduction does not extend to room and board. Each of these tax breaks is contingent upon the filer's modified adjusted gross income for the year, with the cut-off for the tax credits being $51,000 or $102,000 if filing jointly. The cut-off for the tuition deduction is $65,000 or $130,000 if filed jointly. Thc difference between the tax deduction and the credits is that thc credits subtract money straight off the top of the taxes that you owe, while the deduction comes off of a person's total taxable income for the year. The Hope credit and the Lifetime Learning credit cannot be used in the same year or against the same expenses. The tuition deduction cannot be used if either of the other two tax breaks is being claimed. Also available for the 2002 tax year is the ability to file your taxes for free online. According to the IRS, filing online is "fast and secure. People who file electronically generally get their refunds more quickly than those who file paper returns" Students with questions or concerns should see a tax professional or visit the IRS web Nick Malawskey Staff Reporter Page 6 Nick Slotterback record-breaking throws gets him #2 rank in the nation. 9 10-12 Parson's Union Building Lock Haven University Lock Haven, PA 17745 Newsroom: (570) 893-2334 Fax: (570) 893-2644 Email: _ Author Stewart O'Nan shared his secrets and strategies for novel-writing to students and faculty Wednesday night.

The Supreme Executive Committee of Kappa Sigma fraternity shut down its Davidson College chapter Saturday over a February hazing incident in which six freshmen were required to kill a goose to become members. At its quarterly meeting in Dallas, the fraternity's fivemember international governing board voted unanimously to revoke the chapter's charter "for conduct unbecoming a chapter of our fraternity," said Mitchell Wilson, executive director of the fraternity.

A new chapter, made up of students not affiliated with the current one, could form at Davidson later. But Mitchell said that would not happen for at least two years.

While sitting down to write my article for the week, I wondered idly about other countries and whether they have had to drink the same horrid dregs of American pop that we've drank for the last bout of eternity and whether they've had the opportunity to enjoy the little cream that rises to the top once every other blue moon. So, I decided to unfold my magic web browser and view the top 20 album charts of Britain, Finland, Germany, Italy, Argentina, and Japan to see how well they reflect the American way of music (for any interested, the web link for each countries top Dion occupies the number three spot and the aforementioned Linkin Park album is number T/7e Eag/e Eye/Stephanie Brown five (somehow, I had no idea rap went over so well in Germany).

That means that there are going to continue to be at least three news channels that continuously throw updates out at us at a dizzying rate. There was a commercial break on MSNBC the other night while I was watching some of the coverage. It was just a short little reminder to all of us to support our troops and continue to watch their station for the latest news. This is all well and good, but I could not help but notice how they put subliminal messages into that thirty-second spot. They flashed a picture of Saddam, and then these words, in this order, came fading into view. "Saddam is alive." But once all of the words could be seen together all at once on the screen, I noticed that the "is" was above the word "Saddam", so that it actually read "Is Saddam alive?" Another screen right after that showed some military figure and the words faded into view in this order "Our in danger." are troops But once again, once all the words could be seen at once, the "are" ended up on top so that the phrase read "Are our troops in danger?" These are some pretty shady ways of keeping viewers if you ask me. The icing on this little cake was the fact that it was aired at around one o'clock in the morning, not five o'clock in the evening when attention spans are more alert.

Why do we pay so much for an education, if the teachers aren't willing to take the time and help us? I thought one of the main points about going to college was to learn how to learn. I can't do that without the help of caring and knowledgeable teachers. Just because I'm at the branch campus does not mean that I should not have just as good as professors at the main campus. I want the same right and quality of learning no matter where I am. Having professors that do not answer my questions, give direction, or know how to teach is not fair, when we do not have the choice of taking that class with another professor.

Helen Snyder Don't Drag All Your Things Home for Summer BreakStore it with Central Storage Reasonable Rates, Jfjs. Sean Dooley Editor in Chief 10% OFF The problem with still maintaining a friendship with your ex is that each of you need to be willing to keep in touch. That doesn't always happen. But it is possible to keep a friendship with your ex if you are both reasonable and mature about it. It can be a tall order, but hey, it can be done. Now I wouldn't want to remain really good friends with an ex and hang out one-on-one a lot, just because things usually would be a little awkward, plus one of the two people may still have feelings for the other one and things would be hard. But if you associated with the same group of people before splitting up, why should you change your friends just because you changed your girlfriend or boyfriend? You shouldn't you should remain friends with the same people. And if your ex just so happens to be in that group, I'm sure the weirdness would wear off after a while if you just are respectable to each other. Or if you really can't stand each other, just don't talk, but you can still interact with the same crew. The way that Jerry and Elaine were on Seinfeld after their relationship failed is a bit too much for me. I wouldn't want to sit there and help my ex get another guy or tell my friend how to get with her. I know that TV isn't real, but I liked that show and could use it in my argument, so let me go with it, OK? The best way to remain friends in my opinion is not to spend every waking moment with each other, but rather just keep in touch via email or something like that. At least send each other a birthday card or give a call over the holidays. Don't be immature and act like you can't talk to each other anymore. Be an adult. You can do it.

All yon can eat FIND A NEW ONE riends after a r Spaghetti only $5.75! Can exes really be friends? The answer to this question is not yes or no. As with many other dating experiences, it all depends I on the situation. How long were you dating? Who broke up with whom? Why did you break up? Was the feeling mutual? Did you try to work it out? If the two of you were only casually dating for a few weeks or months, and decided you just weren't ■ compatible, then I'd say yes, you'd be able to part ways and still remain close friends. But if you were in a long-term committed relationship, most of the time the break up isn't mutual,! and there are very hurt feelings on one or both ends. And, if you were with someone for a long time, I you were more than likely in love with him or her. There's no way you can be expected to just turn I those feelings off overnight. Take it from someone who knows: it is nearly IMPOSSIBLE to be justI friends with someone you are still in love with, especially when they begin dating someone else. On the other hand, if you were in that relationship for a long time, that person obviously became al very important part of your life. It would also be very hard to just eliminate them from your life, espe-l cially if you were used to seeing him or her on a regular basis. I do believe that after a long-term relationship ends, there can eventually be a good friendship sal-B vaged, but it will take a very long time to reach that stage. I do believe that some people were really ■ meant to be just good friends. I mean, just because the love you shared didn't last doesn't mean that friendship doesn't have to die as well. But in order for a friendship to work, you have to make sure the feelings are mutual from both sides. When it comes down to it, this is just something that both people have to decide upon. But remem-1 ber, friendships are things that just happen. If you try to force it, both people will end up being miser-1 able.

This Week's Horoscopes April 7-13, 2003 Aries (March 21-April 20). Late Tuesday, a powerful wave of sensitivity from loved ones may be distracting. Previously silent friends or lovers may boldly state their romantic ideals and social concerns. Intimacy and new passion are necessary for emotional success. Expect unproductive or stalled relationships to steadily fade. Physical energy or sleep patterns are also unpredictable this week. Get extra rest, if possible, and wait for obvious indications of Taurus (April 21-May 20). Minor health concerns or lagging physical energy will no longer drain social or family confidence. Early this week, expect bothersome skin, digestive or eye ailments to dramatically improve. Some Taureans will also experience a powerful increase in creative energy or artistic awareness. If so, expect romantic and long-term social relations to also be affected. Stay alert. Before next week, increased sensuality and renewed trust will require active dedication and revised social plans. Gemini (May 21-June 21). Love affairs and long-term friendships are particularly rewarding over the next few days. Watch for loved ones and close friends to declare their intentions or commitments. Many Geminis, especially those born between 1968 and 1980, will experience a profound deepening of key relationships. By early May expect delayed romance and stalled relationships to be firmly re-established. Stay focused. Fast emotional decisions will be required. Cancer (June 22-July 22). This week, business relationships may be unusually emoor tional flirtatious. Expect key officials or trusted work mates to express their social needs and long-term romantic plans. New communications will eventually create improved friendships, but also demand delicate social timing. If possible, remain quietly distant and avoid confrontation. After Friday, family finances may be mildly strained. Thoroughly check records, payments or debt schedules. Lei) 22). Late Tuesday, a dose friend' dr work companion'may ask for sensitive and highly personal advice. Areas of concern are power dynamics between loved ones or long-term lifestyle choices. Encourage caution. Important life decisions heed to be fully considered. Early Friday, watch also for an unusual financial or business message from the past. Old job offers or delayed projects are featured. Take extra time to carefully evaluate all ideas and proposals. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Business policies, financial obligations and long-term property matters will require your immediate attention. Late Monday, watch for important changes to key documents, procedures or workplace methods. Many Virgos will be expected to make sense of past financial mistakes or bring clarity to conflicting business standards. After Thursday, minor home finances may also apply. Watch budgets and spending needs for obvious mistakes. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Avoid social discussions or romantic speculation in all workplace relationships. At present, work mates and colleagues may be extremely sensitive to personal information or minor social disputes. Don't be fooled. Even though an atmosphere of humor and light discussion may exist, underlying resentments will create a lasting impression. After Friday, family or intimate relationships will offer peaceful resolve. Enjoy the company of trusted companions. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Old social wounds and past relationships may reoccur over the next few days. Before midweek, watch for friends, distant relatives or yesterday's loved ones to reappear and demand completion. Although minor jealousies are unavoidable, by the end of this week small disagreements will actually work in your favor. Remain diplomatic. Old ideals, memories or romantic expectations will soon fade. By mid-April, new love will require your full attention. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Past romantic and social delays will be quickly resolved. Beginning late Tuesday and lasting over the next two to three days, expect long-term friends and romantic partners to firmly state their needs, intentions and future plans. Much of this may come as a relief. Watch for stalled relationships to move rapidly forward. Early Saturday, an unusual financial mistake may create mistrust between relatives. Overspending or missed payments are accented. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20). Early this week, rental agreements, leases or minor financial disputes may be briefly annoying. Monday through Wednesday, react quickly to unexpected repairs or revised property contracts. Some Capricorns, especially those born late in December, will also be asked to clarify banking documents or financial procedures. Oddly enough, money delays or strained work relations will soon lead to dramatically improved business practices. Stay open. There's much to consider. Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19). Friends, lovers and close work mates may be moody and reflective. Watch for unexpected social and workplace delays. Over the next two days, past business records and yesterday's romantic history will have strong effects on daily relationships. Allow others the necessary time to complete past assignments or finalize outgoing relationships. Later this week, discuss your romantic ideas and social concerns with loved ones. New options may soon emerge. Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20). Family relationships are strong concerns this week. Pay attention to the minor criticisms of close relatives or loved ones. Over the next three days, small social irritations could lead to stalled relationships or broken trusts. React with sensitivity to the needs of others. Early this weekend, an unexpected romantic flirtation will draw attention. Mildly unethical attractions or private invitations may soon create controversy. Emotions are high. Avoid unnecessary tensions, if possible. Information Services.

Seeded #1 and favored to win his third 125 lb. title after a runner-up finish his freshman year, is Lock Haven native, John Stout. Stout takes a 30-4 career record in addition to four 1251b. Eastern Collegiate Boxing Association (ECBA) titles in his quest for a third national title. Champions and runner-ups from each of the three regions, Eastern, Mid-West, Far West, along with wild card selections in each of the 12 weight divisions will be battling for national titles. Navy's Jeremy Biggs, the Mid-West champion and UNReno's Jose Casas, the FarWest regional champ are expected to be Stout's biggest competitors in his attempt to win a third title. The past two weeks, the Bald Eagle boxers have increased their training regimen and made two trips to Altoona, PA to spar. Coaches Ken Cox and Ken Cooper believe the four-some of Osahon Omo-Osagie, H9lbs., John Stout, I25lbs., Gus Pugliese, I32lbs., and Miro Jelev, I85lbs. are as ready as they will ever be to challenge for the title. "These guys are quality collegiate boxers. What we lack in quantity, we make up in quality," stated Cox. defend his title at 125 lb. Jelev, a bronze medallist in last years' national champi- onships at Navy, is expected to receive his biggest challenge from Kentucky's mid-west regional champion, veteran Wes Smith. Also, the Far-West regional champ from the U.S. Air Force Academy, Ryan Coates, was impressive in beating UNLV's Justin Masaniai for the Far-West title. Navy's, David Rainey, the mid-west runner-up along with veteran Preston Haliburton from Georgia State could be factors. "If Miro boxes to his potential I sincerely believe he can win the title. He's highly motivated and focused," com- fir fit flj flH^fl jjl^iVJiiiHfflMii'r; if mWpSt mented Cox. One of the most improved Bald Eagle boxers this season is 1191b., junior, Osahon Omo- Osagic (11-8). Omo-Osagie won his second 119 lb. eastern title last week at PSU. Cox believes the 1191b. class is one of the toughest this year. With Navy's Adam Mallo moving down to 1191bs. from 1251bs, this year, will make him very competitive.
