19th CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
seems like a welcome retreat
from the grit and crime of big
cities. But looks can be deceiv-
ing, and trouble has a way of
finding Ed.
A puzzling murder in a golfer's
hacienda brings in a new client
for Ed, but while his time is
spent unraveling the complex
web of sex, money, and false
identity, a much more danger-
ous threat lurks. A ruthless and
implacable enemy that has
proved more than a match for
him in the past has returned to
Santa Fe, and this time she wants
nothing less than all-out retribu-
tion.
From the seamy prisons of
Mexico to the glamorous movie
sets of L.A. and the lush and
exclusive resorts of Santa Fe,
Ed Eagle and his team of private
detectives must hunt or be
hunted.

Stuart Woods at the Archer Pub-
lic Library.

CHARITABLE GIVING: A
"WIN-WIN” ACTIVITY
Thanksgiving is a good time
to be thankful for those
charitable, educational and
religious groups that provide
your community with valuable
services. And now may be a
good time to consider supporting
these groups because, if you
contribute before the year is over,
you may "do well by doing good"
through valuable tax deductions.
To illustrate the benefit of
these deductions, let's assume
you're in the 25% tax bracket/If
you give $100 to a qualified
charity, you can deduct $100
(with a tax benefit of $25) when
you file your taxes.
Consequently, the real cost of
your donation is just $75 ($100
minus the $25 tax savings).
As you consider your
charitable gifts, keep the
following points in mind:
• You must donate - not just
pledge. You can make a pledge
to donate, but the amount is not
deductible until you actually pay
it.
• You,must contribute to a
qualified charitable group. For
your gift to be deductible, it must
go to a qualified tax-exempt
organization - either a religious
group or a group that has
received 501(c)(3) status from
the IRS. If you're unsure if the
group you want to support is
tax-exempt, just ask.
• You must itemize. To claim
a charitable deduction, you must
itemize deductions on your
taxes. Thus far, we've talked only
about cash gifts. But you may
have other financial assets, such
as stocks, that you can give to
charitable groups, and these gifts
also can earn you tax benefits.
For example, suppose you give
$500 worth of stock in XYZ
Being
there
is why
I m here.
Whether you need a question
answered, a problem solved or a
claim reported, my job is to make
it happen. Like a good neighbor,
State Farm is there?1

Company to a charitable group.
If you're in the 25% tax bracket,
you can deduct $125 when you
file your taxes for 2010. But by
donating the XYZ stock, you
avoid paying any capital gains
taxes you might have incurred if
you had sold the stock yourself.
Making charitable gifts now
may help you reduce the size of
your estate and potentially lower
any future estate tax burden on
your heirs. Right now, federal
estate tax laws are in flux, but
it's possible that, one day, your
estate might be large enough to
generate estate taxes. If you
wanted to formalize your
charitable gifts and help your
estate planning, you might
consider establishing a
charitable remainder trust.
Under such an arrangement,
you'd place some assets, such as
stocks or real estate, in a trust,
which could then use these assets
to pay you a lifetime income
stream. When you establish the
trust, you may be able to receive
a tax deduction based on the
charitable group's "remainder
interest" - the amount the charity
is likely to ultimately receive.
(This figure is determined by an
IRS formula.) Upon your death,
the trust would relinquish the
remaining assets to the charitable
organization you've named.
Keep in mind, though, that this
type of trust can be complex. To
establish one, you'll need to work
with your tax and legal advisors.
In any case, be generous during
this season of giving. You'll be
helping a charitable group
accomplish its worthy goals -
and you may be helping yourself
when tax time arrives.Edward

financial advisors are not estate
planners and cannot provide tax

your attorney or qualified tax
advisor regarding your situation.
