Dont be surprised if one day the list of famous photographers includes not only names such as Ansel Adams, Yousuf Karsh and Robert Capa - but also the names of some of the residents of Tara Hall Home for Boys.
Last week, a group of the boys are staying at the Georgetown County home began an eight-week course called Cameras for Kids which will teach them the art of photography.
Betsey Chesler, the founder of Cameras for Kids Foundation, helped teach the first day. The remainder of the course will be taught by Pawleys Island resident Donald Withers, whose photographs have been published in multiple publications. He is staff photographer for the Kaminski House Museum and Hobcaw Barony.
Donald is a great addition to our team of photographers, Chesler said. His enthusiasm for photography along with his strong desire to work with kids in his community makes him a great fit for our program.
Chesler said the eight-week program offers weekly camera lessons to children living in residential facilities across the United States. Something she never realized was so common until she started the foundation.
At any given time there is a minimum of 500,000 children that are not presently living with their families and theyre usually taken out due to abuse, abandonment, neglect, many problems in the home. So its a matter of safety and these children are victims of circumstances so I thought I want to help them what can I offer and my passion is photography, said Chesler.
Chesler began the class by giving some helpful hints on great picture-taking.
Find ways to take a picture in ways no others are taking them, she told the students. And dont be afraid of black and white photos. You can do a lot with black and white.
Patsy Morris, the assistant director at Tara Hall, said the camera workshop allows students to learn new skills that they can use in the future.
Were hoping to spark an interest to give a child something that he doesnt think hes good at and inspire his self confidence, said Morris.
And it seems that has already happened for Garrison, resident of Tara Hall.
If more and more people become less interested, the photographer could end up just taking photos. And I dont want that to happen, photography means something its kind of like art only with a camera, said Garrison.
At the end of the program the Cameras for Kids Foundation organizes an art exhibit with all the boys photographs.
The students are also invited to share the story behind each picture.

GOP ponders scandal's toll on Christie's future
TRENTON, N.J. -- Fellow Republicans on Saturday debated the fallout over new allegations that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie made inaccurate statements about his knowledge of lane closures orchestrated by top aides as apparent political payback.
Some said the accusations could derail any hopes of Christie running for president in 2016 if he can't shake the scandal soon, while others were quick to express faith in the governor while discrediting his accuser and questioning his motives.
A letter released Friday by a lawyer for a former Christie loyalist who ordered the closures on the heavily traveled George Washington Bridge said evidence exists suggesting the governor knew about the closings as they happened in September, which would contradict Christie's previous assertions. The governor's office has denied the claims by David Wildstein, a former executive with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey who was among four people who lost their jobs.
Reaction among top Republicans appeared mixed, with most believing he could weather the storm but acknowledging the allegations hurt.
"It's not good for him," said Matt Beynon, a Republican operative who worked on former Sen. Rick Santorum's 2012 presidential campaign and still has him as a client. "The longer the story goes on, the worse it gets for him. If this is still an issue a year from now, he's going to have trouble pulling the trigger. ... Gov. Christie will have to think long and hard about running."

Lebanon's Wine Country
Touring and Tasting in the Bekaa Valley
Bekaa Valley, Lebanon
Lebanon's wine production dates back to biblical times, but its modern winemaking is only starting to attract attention -- impressing foreign visitors with everything from bold Cabernet-Syrah blends to crisp white Sauvignon Blancs and Chardonnays.
Tasting Notes
Myst de Château Kefraya 2008, $8.50
This salmon-colored rosé, one of Château Kefraya's most popular labels, is a mix of Cinsault, Tempranillo, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. It reveals subtle notes of exotic fruits dominated by hints of mango mixed with those of red fruits, such as red currant, strawberry and black currant. The wine is well-balanced and full-bodied.
Domaine de Baal Red 2006, $24
Lebanon's only organic wine. Made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah grapes, this is a premium full-bodied wine, rich in color, full of red fruit and balsamic aromas, aged in French oak. This age-worthy wine is best until 2019.
Massaya Gold Reserve Red 2004, $20
This garnet-colored wine is made from 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Mourvèdre, 10% Syrah. It has a clear and powerful aroma of sandalwood and incense. It is a full bodied, pulpy wine.
Ksara Blanc de Blancs 2005, $12
Made from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Chardonnay grapes, this light, fresh and subtle dry white wine from Château Ksara is aged four months in oak.
Château Musar Hochar Père et Fils 2001, $12
This full-bodied wine tastes of wild berries and toasted wood. Aged in oak vats for six to nine months, it is made from Carignan, Cinsault and Cabernet Sauivgnon.
Brooke Anderson
The country's wine industry struggled during the 15-year Lebanese civil war, from 1975-1990, but in recent years it has been growing at an impressive rate. Some 30 winemakers operate in Lebanon, more than double the number that were producing in 2005. Now, hoping to capitalize on the success of their wines in the Middle East as well as in foreign markets like the U.K. and France, Lebanon's vintners are building a fledgling wine tourism industry around their picturesque vineyards in the Bekaa Valley.
"The idea is catching on. In the next five years, at least 10 more producers will set themselves up," says Michael Karam, author of the book "Wines of Lebanon." "There are enough small plots of land for people to set themselves up as small producers. It fits in with Lebanon as a boutique destination."
Lebanese wineries are ramping up their efforts to boost tourism, appearing frequently at wine fairs and festivals and encouraging visits through their Web sites. The autumn, during harvest season, is the most popular time of year to visit Lebanon's wineries. But the country's vineyards, located close to stunning Roman and Byzantine ruins and day-trip distance from cosmopolitan Beirut, are an appealing destination all year round.
"Travel agencies are now organizing bus tours of wineries," says Rania Chammas of Château Ksara, the country's largest winery. "This is new to Lebanon."
John Buchanan, a London-based film producer, visited several wineries in the Bekaa Valley -- Kefraya, Clos St. Thomas and Ksara -- last spring. "I've discovered Lebanese wine on my trips there so was curious to see the wineries in action," Mr. Buchanan says. "The Lebanese producers understand, are very hospitable and professional and know how to lay on tastings. They don't rush you and are very knowledgable. They all speak English and French."
For Ramzi Ghosn, winemaker at Massaya, a vineyard in the Bekaa that produces 300,000 bottles per year, learning about Lebanese wine is essential for the wine connoisseur. "If you want to learn about the history of wine, at some point you have to come here," Mr. Ghosn says.
The Lebanese claim to be the world's first winemakers. More than 5,000 years ago, the Phoenicians -- the ancient inhabitants of present-day Lebanon -- became the world's first wine exporters, shipping their product to Egypt, Rome, Greece and Carthage. Modern-day visitors to Lebanon can experience a bit of that era in the ancient city of Baalbek in eastern Lebanon, with its temple of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine.
Winemaking's biblical roots can also be traced to Lebanon. The tomb of Noah, considered the first winemaker in the bible, is said to be located near Zahle, in eastern Lebanon. Cana, a city in south Lebanon, is where many Lebanese Christians believe Jesus turned water to wine. "In the Bible, when they had all of those references to wine, they weren't talking about Italian wine," Mr. Ghosn says.
Lebanese winemakers take pride in their dedication to their craft, despite the country's sporadic political instability. It was Serge Hochar, from Château Musar winery, who went to the Bristol (U.K.) Wine Fair in 1979 in the midst of his country's civil war and put Lebanese wine on the international map. Mr. Hochar still makes wine in Ghazir, just north of Beirut.
The country's other winemakers are similarly determined. "We've had hard times at Kefraya, but nothing ever stopped," says Emile Majdalani of Château Kefraya, one of Lebanon's larger wineries. Some of the fighting in the July 2006 war occurred near the winery's vineyards, which produce the Bekaa Valley's main grape varietals: Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cinsault. "The war ended right before harvest. Otherwise, we couldn't have picked the grapes."
Coteaux de Botrys, a winery near the northern Lebanese coastal town of Boutran, is one of many boutique wineries that have sprung up in recent years. The owner, Neila El Bitar, is continuing a family tradition her father started in 1998, when he planted 5,000 vines.
The hilltop winery includes an old shepherd's house, a single family dwelling with two bedrooms. Ms. Bitar is putting the final touches on the historic home she has renovated to welcome guests who stay overnight while visiting the vineyard. In the main living area, she treats visitors to her home cooking, accompanied by the wine, made just footsteps away.
Château Ksara, Lebanon's oldest wine producer, was started by Jesuit priests in 1857. It is also Lebanon's most visited winery, attracting some 40,000 visitors per year. Guests are welcomed with a glass of wine and shown a short documentary on the winery's history. They are then taken on a one-hour guided tour of the caves and vineyards. The tours, conducted in French, English and Arabic, take visitors through Ksara's famous caves, which were discovered by the Romans and eventually used by Jesuit monks for wine storage.
Carlos Khachan, who founded Club Grappe in 2002, is taking Lebanese enotourism a step further. His wine tasting group offers two-day tours of three different wine regions of Lebanon as well as a 10-day tour of vineyards around the country. "It's done by experts," says Mr. Khachan, who studied winemaking in France. "Tour companies have done guided tours of wineries, but it works better when it's done by people with a background in wine."
Meanwhile, the Saadé Group, a family of Syrian-Lebanese entrepreneurs whose ventures include shipping, tourism and real estate, is embarking on a series of projects relating to wine and wine tourism in Lebanon. It plans to open a 45-room boutique hotel and wine museum in the Bekaa Valley by 2011.
Most hotels now in the Bekaa Valley are in cities like Baalbek and Zahle, within easy driving distance of the vineyards.
The wine museum will also be the first of its kind in the Arab world, where the history of alcoholic beverages is often ignored for religious reasons.
"The only way to preserve wine heritage is to spread wine culture," says Sandro Saadé, noting that many of the artifacts at the Lebanese National Museum sit in storage because there is not enough room to display all of the objects.
In November, the Saadé Group announced the opening of two new wineries -- one called Bargylus in the Syrian coastal province of Latakkia and the other Marsyas in the Bekaa Valley. The group was originally going to build the wineries in France, where they already had experience in the wine industry. But they settled on their home countries, Lebanon and Syria, where they see growth potential in the wine and tourism industries.
The region's political stability is still an issue. But many in the Levant believe the situation in the region is improving -- heralding a new golden age for Lebanese winemaking.
"The wines of South Africa didn't become international until the end of apartheid, Chilean wine didn't take off until the end of the Pinochet regime," says Mr. Ghosn of Massaya winery. "The region should be related to good food and a sound environment. The message from a glass of Lebanese wine should be tolerance and openness between civilizations. It's more than fermented grape juice."
Trip Planner
Where to stay: There are no hotels at the Bekaa Valley wineries, but you can find decent places to stay within a 20-minute drive.
The Palmyra Hotel in Baalbek combines history and character. Housed in a once-grand building that is a relic from the colonial days, the hotel's rooms have direct views of the city's ancient ruins. Rooms range from $40 to $66 for a double room. 961-8-376-101.
The Massabki Hotel in Chtaura is one of the few luxury accommodations in the area. It's also a relic from the colonial era, but has more modern amenities than the Palmyra. Standard rooms start at $125 for a double room, and a luxury suite is $250. 961-8-544-644; www.massabkihotel.com.
The Grand Hotel Kadri in Zahle, with an outdoor pooland its own restaurant and bar, is probably the most luxurious place to stay in the Bekaa Valley. A double room is $150 and the royal suite is $450. 961-8-813-920; www.grandhotelkadri.com.
The West Bekaa Country Club is near Kefraya and Cave Kouroum. It features a pool, spa and tennis courts, with great views of the mountains. Double rooms are $100 a night ($130 on weekends); 961-8-645-601/2/3; www.wbccbekaa.com.
Where to eat: Most restaurants in Lebanon offer a traditonal mezze, or appetizer assortment, including hummos, baba ghanoush, spinach pastries, tabouleh (parsley salad), yogurt and olives.
Two restaurants in the area with especially good mezze are the Akl restaurant, on the main road in Chtaura, and the restaurant at the Arabi Hotel, located on the Berdawni River in Zahle.
Two of the wineries also have good restaurants. Château Kefraya's menu is a combination of traditional Lebanese (like the mezze pictured above) and French cuisine. Massaya's restaurant hires housewives from the nearby villages to cook homestyle traditional Arab dishes.
What to see: The ruins of Baalbek are a stunning relic of Imperial Rome. Plan on a half-day to see the temples and mosaics, and visit the impressive museum. Also in the Bekaa Valley is the town of Aanjar, home to the well-preserved ancient ruins of Umayyad City, with strong influence of pre-Islamic cultures, including Greek and Byzantine.

89 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - January 2012
Good full medium ruby. Crushed blackberry, licorice and violet on the lively nose. Quite ripe and sweet in the mouth, showing impressive volume and breadth for the price range. Finishes with serious ripe tannins and noteworthy persistence.

Click To Read More About Our Dear Friend Jan
On the afternoon of July 12, 2015, Jan Peccia died of cancer at St. Peter's Hospital in Helena, Montana. She was surrounded by family and loved ones. Jan was 48 years old.
In 1997, Jan purchased The Montana Book and Toy Co. with her sister-in-law and best friend, Didi Augustine Peccia. The bookstore remains an anchor in downtown Helena for readers and writers of all levels and ages. Jan brought her warmth, her keen literary sense, and her commitment to the Helena community, to all facets of the business. With Didi she participated in a store book club, hosted readings by local and visiting authors, and co-sponsored many charitable events. She was an avid reader, and loved nothing more than matching a customer with a good book.
Jan embarked on a second business in 2005, when—again with sister-in-law Didi—she became a real estate broker and formed Augustine Properties which specializes in residential and commercial real estate. Augustine Properties was involved in the development of Nob Hill on the south side of Helena. Jan was perfectly suited for this new position. Just as she wanted to be sure Montana Book Company customers walked out of the store with the perfect book, she worked long hours to match real estate customers to the house of their dreams. She treated each listing as an honor and an adventure.
Jan was diagnosed with melanoma in October 2013. She endured a hard year of treatment, but never lost her positive attitude or her adventurous spirit, and barely let it slow down her busy life. She continued to play an active role in her family's life, worked at both businesses, took yoga classes, participated in her book club, gardened and always had a warm smile ready for anyone she encountered. She was declared cancer free in December 2014, and celebrated with her family and dozens of friends. Unfortunately, the cancer returned suddenly in July 2015. She spent her final days with her children, family and friends, celebrating her life.Click To Read More About Our Dear Friend Jan

Afternoon Tea
Timeless Elegance
Served in The Lobby Lounge beneath the stunning Baccarat Chandelier, our Afternoon Tea upholds this British culinary tradition with real flare. Despite our distinctive, modern style, we remain faithful to the classic combination of delectable finger sandwiches, served on artisanal breads, scones served deliciously warm and accompanied by clotted cream and jam, and, of course, a selection of fancies.
In addition, our trained tea sommelier ensures true homage to the intricacies of Britain's world-renowned tea culture with a range of teas carefully selected by master tea blenders, Harney & Sons.
For an added touch of luxury, guests can enjoy a chilled glass of Champagne alongside either a traditional, or delightfully themed, Afternoon Tea in the heart of London.

Major: Drama
High School: Live Oak
Hello there, my name is Claudia Vasquez and I enjoy long walks at the beach while I feel the wind through my hair. I also like to engage in high fives, fist bumps and anything of the like. I was born and raised in El Salvador. My favorite sports are eating and sleeping Those are not sports, you said? Well, they SHOULD be. I have grown significantly since attending Los Medanos College, both personally and academically. I am a Theatre Major who has been fortunate enough to have worked with various groups on and off campus, improving my interpersonal, communication and leadership skills. My dream is to become a professor in theater and work in a community college so that I can give back what all my directors and professors have given to me: knowledge, strength, unconditional support, and the trust and belief they implanted in me. I want to teach disadvantaged students and engage myself in diversity so that I will never stop learning from those around me.
Major: Psychology
High School: Deer Valley
Hi there! My name is Sable Horton and yes I did hear a Who. I graduated from high school in 2013 and I have been attending LMC since fall 2013. I plan to graduate from LMC with an Associate's Degree in Psychology in spring 2016. I also plan to enroll in a Christian College in Southern California by fall 2016 where I will pursue a Master's degree in Psychology and a minor in Biblical Studies.
When I first started attending LMC I wasn't involved in anything on campus, my goal was to come to school and go home. I quickly realized that my method wasn't working out for me as there is more to college than just going to classes then going home. I decided to get involved on campus by joining a learning community and by participating in other fun things on campus. I am a graduate of the Umoja Scholars Program. I am currently a Student Ambassador on campus. I am the Vice-President of Student Government and I am also involved in several other student organizations on campus. I have gained so many amazing mentors and I have been able to build beautiful relationships. LMC really has become my home away from home.
On a more personal note, in my free time I love going to church, volunteering, and hanging out with my friends and family. I also like to write poetry and short stories as well as plan events and meet new people. My favorite thing to do on campus when I'm not working, in a meeting, or in a class is to hang out in the Student Life Office with the awesome Student Life Coordinators.
Major: Biology
High School: Freedom
My name is Robert Reilly and this will be my second semester at LMC. I graduated from Freedom High School in June of 2015 and came to LMC to study Biology. My plan is to go through the Biological Sciences Program at LMC then transfer to a 4 year college where I'll take the MCAT so that I can get into a good medical school. My ultimate goal is to become an orthopedic surgeon (not to be confused with an orthodontist). I was a good student in high school and with med school in mind the idea of paying so much for the first two years at a 4 year I could avoid didn't sound right. With finances in mind I decided LMC was the way to go in order to get where I wanted cost effectively and efficiently.
I have extensive experience playing and coaching soccer as well as participating in clubs. Whenever I get down time I end up hanging out with friends, playing some soccer, working out, practicing my cooking, reading science journals, or browsing through Grey's Anatomy.
Major: Economics
High School: Pittsburg
Hello, my name is Leonardo Bojorquez and I am a continuing LMC student. I am 23 years old and have fully committed myself to furthering my education. I plan to transfer as an Economics major to a University in the Bay Area. Although I have not yet committed to a particular university UC Berkeley is at the top of my list. This past summer I had the opportunity to take a sociology course at UC Berkeley, which served as a valuable learning experience for my future endeavors.
Before LMC, I was enlisted in the U.S military. I served in the United States Marine Corps for over 3 years. I deployed with the Navy for a year and was able to visit multiple countries. One of my favorite countries was Spain because of the weather and beaches. In my free time I like to hike, play sports, or just hang out with friends. I am a member of the Transfer Academy, which is a learning community on campus. If you see me around campus, don't be shy, wave or say hello.
Major: Psychology and Biology
High School: Liberty
My name is Allesandra Gutierrez and I am 21 years old. I am a Contra Costa Country native and I have lived in Brentwood all my life. I attended Liberty High School and became an alumni in year 2012. That same year, I started at Los Medanos College fall semester and have been well involved with the school since then. During my first semester I joined the ACE Academy which stands for Academic College Excellence. It opened the doors for me in becoming more academically involved, which I lacked during my high school years. Coming to LMC was my chance for a start fresh and find what I wanted to major in. Since then I have been involved with Alpha Gamma Sigma, AMSA, MESA, been an officer for the Honors Program, and currently became a Welcome Services Student Ambassador. I am currently finishing up my A.S.T. in Psychology and A.S in Biology with the intentions of getting into research. I will be graduating in spring 2016 and hoping to transfer to a UC where I will be majoring in biopsychology. During my free time I like to play video games with my friends and binge watch on Netflix.
Major: Psychology
High School: Pittsburg
My name is Heavenly Prater and I am 18 years old. I received my high school diploma in the summer of 2014 from Pittsburg High School and started my education at LMC during the fall of the same year. I am majoring in Psychology and hope to become an educational counselor at the college level. In the summer of 2015 I worked with the students enrolled in the LMC Summer Bridge program, and that is where my interest in educational counseling was discovered! Here at LMC, I am involved in the Transfer Academy learning community. I plan on transferring to either a UC or CSU with an associate degree within the next two years.
Since I was young, I have enjoyed helping others and getting involved in activities within my community. I find fun in almost anything! To name a few things, I enjoy fundraising, studying theater, and having a good laugh. I find it easy to get along with others and am always looking forward to making someone's day easier. I strive to find the best things in life and am enjoying the process of discovering who I am!
Major: Psychology
High School: Dozier Libbey
My name is Brynna Graham. I graduated from Dozier-Libbey Medical High School in 2013 and have lived in the Pittsburg/Antioch area my whole life. I actually attended SFSU my freshman year, but discovered that SF state was not for me (it's always so cold). Since I also didn't know what I wanted to major in, I decided that attending LMC was the best course of action for me.
This is my second year at LMC and I am now majoring in Psychology (after being a Biology and History major). I plan on receiving an AA-T in Psychology and transferring to a California State University. I'm really glad that I attended community college here at LMC, as it gave me the opportunity to explore major options and eventually decide on one. As a student ambassador I am always happy to help, so if you ever see me at the Welcome Desk/Center feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Major: Kinesiology
High School: Pittsburg
My name is Sandra Ruiz. I am nineteen years old and I graduated from Pittsburg High School in 2014. This is my 3rd semester attending Los Medanos College and I am majoring in Kinesiology. Along with being a student ambassador, I am also part of the Transfer Academy and EOPS. I came to Los Medanos not having a set plan for what I wanted to do or what educational goals I wanted to pursue other than transferring to a four year university. That all changed when I attended the Summer Bridge Program the summer before my first fall classes began. Summer Bridge really helped me experience Los Medanos from a different perspective. I also made new friends that I would have classes with in the future. My eventual goal is to receive an associate degree, transfer to a four-university, and ultimately complete my career goal of becoming a Physician's Assistant. During my free time I enjoy watching baseball and spending time with my family.
Major: Computer Science
High School: Dozier-Libbey
Hello. My name is Fernando Hidalgo-Chinchilla. I am from El Salvador and proud of that. I came to the United States at the age of eight and moved around a lot until my family and I decided to live in Antioch. I finished my middle school and high school years here in Antioch. I graduated from Dozier-Libbey Medical High School with both my high school diploma and my diploma of excellence. Despite having attended a medical prep school, my goal is to earn my degrees in the computer science field, not in the medical field.
Before I started my first college semester, I was in the 2014 Summer Bridge program at LMC. Summer Bridge helped me get prepared for what lay ahead in college. I was able to start my first semester with no problems at all. I am now in my second year of college and applying to both the MESA and Honors programs at LMC.
I hope to transfer to San Francisco State, CSU East Bay, or San Jose State. After all, I don't like to stray too far from my family and friends. If everything goes as planned, I'll be graduating in spring 2017 with my AS-T degree (Associate in Science for Transfer) and going on to a CSU to earn my BS degree (Bachelor in Science).
I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy playing video games and tennis. And someday, I plan to become Dictator of the World!

Castoff electronics need to be recycled, DNR reminds residents
Computers, cellphones banned from landfills
An all-too-familiar consequence of the Christmas holidays isn't just a mountain of wrapping paper, it's a cache of electronics, suddenly rendered obsolete.
The state Department of Natural Resources said electronics is the fastest-growing segment of the state's waste stream.
In Wisconsin, there are plenty of places to recycle your old computer, cellphone and other electronic equipment.
But despite the progress of a 2010 law that banned such material from landfills and incinerators, the DNR said that many people aren't aware of the law.
A 2013 DNR survey shows that just under 60% of those surveyed were aware of the limits, the agency said. While public awareness rose after the ban was implemented, it has since dropped off.
Whether they're aware of the limits or not, many people don't know where to take their electronics for recycling. The poll showed 72% don't know where to take electronics, or they're not certain.
Here's what you need to know:
■ Many of the largest retailers that sell electronics now have recycling programs at their individual stores.
■ Goodwill Industries takes electronics in the greater Milwaukee area.
■ The DNR's website includes a search function that allows people to find locations in their counties where electronics can be recycled.
The agency said there are nearly 450 permanent collection sites in the state for old electronics.
In the past four years, consumers and schools have sent 123 million pounds of electronics to recyclers.

None of us likes to think about our own funeral but with these costs rising year on year, you should consider how your loved-ones would cope financially if they were suddenly hit with an unexpected bill. Taking out a funeral plan is a financial decision that can save you and your family money and can also provide reassurance that important choices about your funeral are taken care of in advance.
A Guaranteed Funeral Plan from Dignity, guarantees to pay for the necessary costs of a traditional cremation funeral, as well as helping to take care of all the funeral arrangements. So when the time comes, your family won't have the worry of having to find funds or guess what type of service you wanted.
The average cost of a funeral has increased above average savings rates in recent years. In 2006 the average cost of a funeral was £2,225 and by 2012 this had risen to £3,516; if costs continue to rise at this rate, they are expected to reach almost £5,000 by 2017. So, even if you think you've made adequate provision for funeral costs today, it's unlikely to be enough when the time comes, potentially leaving loved-ones with an unexpected bill.
When you take out a Guaranteed Funeral Plan you freeze the cost at today's prices. This means that however much funeral costs may rise in the future; you have peace of mind that the cost of the arrangements in the plan will be covered in full and your family will pay no more. And, there has never been a better time to take out a plan. Rising funeral costs mean that Dignity will have to increase the price of the Guaranteed Funeral Plan on December 1, 2013. Taking out a plan before this date could save you as much as £204.
As long as you are aged 50 or over, you can pay for your funeral in advance, giving yourself the reassurance that your family will not have to face any additional stress and expense of arranging it themselves. Having a plan in place also means you can rest assured that the funeral will go ahead exactly as you wished, as your family will be aware of any special requests you may have. This is better than leaving your funeral wishes in your Will as quite often this isn't read until after the funeral.
Dignity is one of the UK's leading providers of funeral plans. In 1985 they launched the first funeral plan to be offered in the UK and 520,000 people have now made provision for their funeral with Dignity, more than any other provider. With a national network of more than 1,100 owned or approved funeral directors who have been serving their local communities for generations, you can be sure that your funeral will be in safe hands.
You can also be confident that the money you pay for your plan is safe because it's paid into the National Funeral Trust - a totally independent Trust Fund that no-one at Dignity can access. The Trust Fund is independently managed by some of the most respected names in the financial industry to make sure that your money is properly protected.
There is a simple application form, which you can complete from the comfort of your own home, and there is a range of flexible payment options to choose from. You can choose to make a one-off single payment or spread the cost over 12 to 60 months And, if you buy before 1 December 2013 you could save as much as £204 off the price of your plan.
To find out more, request your FREE information guide and, as a thank you, Dignity will send you a £50 discount and stylish silver pen.
Simply call Dignity on 0800 484 0399 and quote TE0079ND

EDF says it's still backing Hinkley C
French energy company EDF has repeated its support for the new nuclear power station at Hinkley, even though a final investment decision for the £18 billion plant is still to be made.
French unions had expressed their concerns over the impact of the project.
EDF relies on sensitivity studies already communicated to staff representatives and considers this vote does not change the fundamentals of the project, nor the desire of players to engage in it.
The director of Greenpeace comments that, in the wake of Brexit, it would be foolish to pursue the deal. He says the Government should be thinking in terms of renewable energy as a Plan B.
In the UK, Brexit is throwing up endless questions that no one knows the answers to over the future of the European energy market. It would be idiocy of the highest magnitude for the UK government in its current incarnation to sign this disastrous deal.

The UK's decision will have no immediate impact on our day-to-day business.
The medium and long-term effect will depend upon the relationships that are established between the UK, the EU and the rest of the world over the coming years.
Former NHS chief denies £20k fraud
The former chief executive of South Devon NHS Trust has denied defrauding it by siphoning off more than £20,000 to a company run by her husband.
Paula Vasco-Knight is alleged to have carried out the frauds in 2012 and 2013 while she was in charge of the Trust, which runs Torbay Hospital.
Her husband Stephen has also denied receiving money fraudulently and businessman Habib Naqvi has denied facilitating the offence. The three counts of fraud include payments made to a company run by Mr Vasco-Knight, alleged details of rival bids for contracts being sent to him, and an unauthorised payment of £11,072 for work that was not done.
All three denied the allegations when they appeared at Exeter Crown Court and have now been released on bail before a two week trial in January.

Hinkley C "to go ahead" despite Brexit
The boss of EDF has said that Brexit has "no impact" on the business and strategy of the company in the UK, including its plans to build a new nuclear plant at Hinkley Point.
"As of today, we believe that this vote has no impact on our strategy, and the strategy (...) for our UK subsidiary has not changed. Our business strategy is not linked to Great Britain's political affiliation with the European Union, so we have no reason to change it."
Mr Levy emphasised in particular that there should be no fears of reconsidering plans to construct two EPR nuclear reactors at Hinkley Point , a gigantic £18 billion project (around 22 billion euros at current exchange rates), which is being challenged by the Group's French trade unions and for which a final investment decision is pending.
"I would just point out that in the last few days, spokespeople on energy issues for the Brexit camp – notably Energy Minister Andrea Leadsom – have on numerous occasions and again in recent days come out in favour of maintaining the decarbonisation policy, of maintaining the nuclear option, and of maintaining the Hinkley Point project. Therefore there are no consequences from this vote today."
