Freedom to choose can be an intimidating and uncomfortable responsibility. Some young Americans choose to live in a farming community and raise their families in a rural lifestyle. This particular group came to my attention via the headline, "Kansas Group Tries to Reverse Exodus of Young from Rural America."
For anyone who's been paying attention to "Legacy Moment" of late, you might recognize this recurring theme. Young people want to settle in our rural towns, and in most communities, these folks are welcomed with open arms. Not only are there wide open spaces and room to roam, the map dots across the country might be ripe with opportunity for an agribusiness owner and/or a local merchant.
The Kansas group is a community of like-minded young people who founded, "PowerUps," a social and business network that touts rural life for the under-40 crowd and lets them know they are not alone. It was founded about 2-1/2 years ago by Marci Penner, a resident in central Kansas. The website for the movement, aptly titled ruralbychoice.com, features a calendar of events, blogs posts by various members and tidbits for the curious about life in a small town.
Like my previous mentions here, the article reinforces that: "Technology allows companies to operate virtually anywhere. This works in favor of small towns, which also have the advantage of lower costs." It goes on to tout the "moral competitive advantage for companies in small towns that employ young people with rural backgrounds." It mentions their, "...amazing work ethic and strong values."
As the U.S. economy continues to struggle and people look for alternatives to the big city and corporate life, don't overlook the opportunities on the "next frontier." Check out these early pioneers and acknowledge that you're in good company. The article points out, "a lot of young people are looking for jobs that will bring them closer to their rural roots." For some it's farming, for others it's a cheese processing facility, a slaughterhouse/butcher shop, an equipment dealership or an implement manufacturing enterprise.
No matter what, there's a welcome sign and plenty of opportunity for those who choose freedom and welcome the responsibility.
Rural by Choice...is this a good option for your family?
AFBF's Rural Community Building offers a depth of information about growth in the nation's heartland.
As a complement to the Farm Journal Legacy Project, eLegacyConnect engages and encourages farm families through vital succession planning resources.

Well, it's permanent until they can change it. The estate tax, that is...
There was a collective sigh of relief, if not surprise, in January when the estate tax exclusion and the gift tax exemption amounts remained at $5 million. In the same measure, the estate tax was permanently set at only 40% in the beginning of 2013. Although not a perfect solution, the law allows farm families to plan for succession, anticipate the effects of the estate tax and create plans to eliminate or mitigate this onerous obligation.
But that was then. President Barack Obama's budget proposal for 2014 now seeks to use the estate tax to raise revenue by increasing the tax rate from 40% to 45%, lowering the exemption amount to $3.5 million and eliminating the inflation index, which currently applies to the exemption/exclusion amounts. Beyond that, the administration's proposal will eliminate other estate or value freeze strategies, ensuring that an assets appreciation will be subject to tax.
Keep in mind that any changes to the estate tax are only proposals at this point. It's prudent to focus on what a farm owner should do to ward off the negative effects of the tax, such as:
1. Commit to planning. Nobody wants to give Uncle Sam any more than is necessary. With enough time and some compromise, a family can minimize or eliminate an estate tax obligation.
2. Be open to options. Each situation is unique. Like matching puzzle pieces, the tools and techniques used in succession planning, especially as it applies to estate tax strategies, are not always off-the-shelf.
3. Remain flexible. Nothing is "once and done." Estate tax law will change; so will your family, your farm, the economy, commodity markets, etc. Annual reviews and continuous improvements are part of a comprehensive planning process.
4. Involve others. Through our respective communities, we have access to many other people, such as family farmers, professional advisers and subject matter experts. Learn from their experience; it might save you time and money.
5. Start now. Too many people might think, "I'll wait until [some triggering event: fill in the blank]." Or, "I'm too young." Or, "It might cost too much money." Or, "They're not ready yet." Or, any other excuse a person might gin up to postpone planning.
Read full article: 2014 Fiscal Year Estate Tax Proposals (WealthManagement.com; 04-22-2013; Miles C. Padgett and Donald D. Kozusko).
Remember: Estate planning is just one component of a comprehensive succession plan.

Recently, I ran across a mobile app, from an insurance company of all places, that helps consumers locate farmers markets, locally grown produce, agritainment farms, wineries and commodity-related festivals. Harvest to Hand is a simple mobile app designed to connect consumers to producers for healthy food choices.
It isn't the app that fascinates me so much as the concept and the source. Imagine how our daily lives have changed. Not too long ago, food choices (local, natural and organic) were limited to a very niche market. Today, we're using our cell phones to identify producers and find retail sales locations that specialize in this market. Yesterday, insurance companies sold financial security. Now, even these big corporations show compassion by helping customers make healthy food choices.
For me, this serves as another indication that field-to-fork is an increasingly viable, attractive and potentially profitable alternative for breaking into farming. The next frontier is quickly becoming reality and, beyond a niche for consumers, there are other forces helping to increase demand and ensure availability. Though it might always be small, to sustain a percentage of the food market will require professional farmers, processors, distributors and retailers—all of which constitute opportunity for the agripreneur.
Though I can't personally vouch for the mobile site, it looks like it might bring together a physical community, promote healthy eating and enhance the accessibility of locally grown produce. I, for one, appreciate the concept and anticipate there are or will be others. The accompanying website allows farmers, producers and event managers to post their offerings and festivals.

"In 2007, farmer-owned nonfarm businesses employed over 800,000 nonfarm workers and contributed an estimated $55 billion to their local communities' gross county product," according to "The Importance of Farmer-Owned Nonfarm Businesses in the Rural Economy," a study published by the USDA Economic Research Service. The message here is clear; we make the difference—on our farms, in our families and in our local communities.
Is the catalyst for the strength of nonfarm businesses owned by our farm families a coincidence of the farming vocation or a consequence of the farming experience? The report says the comparative advantage for farm households to own other nonfarm business interests, "appears to be their ability to organize resources across multiple enterprises when new business opportunities arise."
In paraphrasing the study, farm households might own a nonfarm business due to:
As we talk succession, and consider the obligation/opportunity to create something bigger, better, stronger and faster, this report should make you feel confident in your ability. Recognize that demands exist for new business ventures and our rural communities are ripe with an abundance of enterprise opportunities.
Take a look at the full USDA study: "The Importance of Farmer-Owned Nonfarm Businesses in the Rural Economy."
Don't underestimate the value of off-farm experience. There's always more to learn.

University appoints first ever UK Professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy
As part of its continuing commitment to public engagement, the University is appointing Dr Angie Hobbs as Professor of the Public Understanding of Philosophy – the first time a Chair in the Public Understanding of Philosophy has been established in the UK.
Welcoming Dr Hobbs' appointment, Vice-Chancellor Professor Keith Burnett said: "This appointment reflects our belief that the thinking which takes place in universities can and should reach out beyond the academic realm and make a difference in the wider world. This is as true of philosophy as it is of research in medicine or engineering. In fact, on many levels our society has a profound need for the kind of deep thinking about how we live which is found in philosophical discourse."
Dr Hobbs who is an international authority on Ancient Greek Philosophy already has a strong public presence in the media, and has appeared on programmes ranging from the Today Programme to Woman's Hour.
Angie Hobbs' contribution to public engagement was endorsed by Melvyn Bragg, who commented: "Angie Hobbs has been on In Our Time (BBC) more than any other contributor since it began 14 years ago! Her ability to explain philosophy is remarkable. She can explain it to the lay person both succinctly and comprehensively while never letting go of the complexity and weight of the issue involved. It's a quite extraordinary gift."
Dr Hobbs joins the Department of Philosophy which has a strong track record both for internationally-respected academic quality combined with public engagement and social responsibility.
Professor Jenny Saul, Head of the Department of Philosophy and winner of the Distinguished Woman Philosopher Award commented: "We are delighted to be welcoming Angie Hobbs to our department. Philosophical ideas can be a powerful force for good, and Angie helps take that thinking to the wider public. This appointment fits perfectly with our long-standing commitment to public engagement, through programmes such as 'Philosophy in the City'- an outreach programme involving over 100 student volunteers which takes philosophy and academic support to local primary and secondary schools."
Angie Hobbs is currently an Associate Professor in Philosophy and at the University of Warwick, where she has built a reputation for not only taking philosophical ideas to the public through lectures, articles, TV and radio appearances and social media, but also helping to develop educational policy relating to Philosophy in schools. An example of this is her role as Honorary Patron of the Philosophy Foundation, a unique educational charity whose aim is to bring philosophy to schools and the wider community.
Angie will be appearing at the Hay of Wye Philosophy Festival this summer. She begins her role in Sheffield in September, when she will be part of the University's 'Festival of the Mind', a 10 day celebration of ideas and creativity designed to engage the public in exciting and challenging thinking.

Feb 19, 20124A pretty visual game, but it is 85 minutes of gameplay for 10$. I cannot seem myself walking through that island again. Maybe at 3$ that would not be so bad
Feb 14, 201210
Feb 15, 20120I can't believe this. I really can't believe this. There is no gameplay. Its NOT a game. The graphics are pretty, yes... but who cares? There is a story... but why bother with games like Mass Effect and Bioshock? If you like wandering an island for 1 hour then here is what you want to spend your 10 dollars on this week. Otherwise, you can find something better to do with your 10$.

Apr 18, 20121This is not a game. It is a story, that's it. Nothing more than a story, where you can walk around. It doesn't have anything else but the walking and the story. I don't think that this should be marked as a game, since this simply isn't a game.
Feb 28, 20120
Feb 18, 20120To each their own I guess. Dear Ester is not a game. At best it is an interactive movie. In reality it is one of the 1990 Multimedia scenery viewers. This "game" has been horribly mislabeled and advertised.
Jun 3, 20120Horribly boring. I based my decision only because the reviews were ravingly good. Even the ratings were in the upper 80s. I will never base my choices on that again. I will from now on, download demos and see for myself.
Feb 15, 201210
Jul 16, 20120this is really not a game. there is not gameplay to be had. no exploring to do. in fact you really dont do anything. you just walk in a straight line from point a to point b. then its over. took me about 10 minutes to beat the "game". there is no content. no story. nothing.
really poor. -
Feb 14, 201210The best about this game is how it manages to recreate an emotion that most games don't even dare to get close to: solitude and unhappiness. That, accompanied by an excellent atmosphere. Sure, there is no actual gameplay, but that is insignificant when compared to the sheer sense of sorrow that the game conveys.
Mar 11, 20121Dear Esther, What a complete and total waste of time and money you were. You thieving bastard give me back my money and 60 minutes of my life. I recommend staying away from this boring, slow moving, poor graphic motion picture.
Jul 16, 20122
Feb 14, 201210Simply amazing , the incredible atmosphere in this game is worth it's price alone , the environments are gorgeous , the ambient sounds are perfectly done , this is easily the best looking and atmospheric game i have ever played , hopefully these guys will make a bigger game with more than just exploration.
Feb 14, 201210
Mar 14, 20126Dear Esther is a somewhat beautiful, somewhat tepid mixture of "doomed romance" and Ballardian psychology. That is, the island appears to be a representation of masculine Inner Space, haunted by loverghosts and cryptic prose. Cool. But the developers never push the human element or the weirdness far enough, leaving us with a lavishly detailed but paradoxically empty experience.
Mar 5, 20120Wasn't sure what to expect, but it turned out to be a waste of ten good dollars. You roam around this island with basically the same type of background replicated repeatedly.. There seems to be no point to any of it. The cave is an endless maze of similar background where the most exciting thing are mushrooms that turn toward you as you move. I want my money back, this game was disappointing..

Oct 16, 20128I bought this piece of art based upon it's shining reviews. It is stunningly beautiful to look at and the music is sublime. Why couldn't Skyrim have these deep colours and graphics? I'll be honest, for £6 it's worth the investment. I don't think I'll play it again, but as others have said, it's quite an emotional experience than a game. I felt a little strange after finishing the story.
Mar 9, 20120Since we are reviewing games here i give this 3d show reel a 0/10. And to kids the only piece of art they've seen is located in a bathroom saying this is art, replicating reality with photo-realism and nothing else in mind is not ART, it's just mere artisan's work, and not even the best attempt at. The narration is even worse than the visuals, enough said.

Feb 15, 201210'Dear Esther' is a beautiful piece of art. And as such it is priceless. There is no sense in arguing about the length/price ratio. It is more like reading a short story. It want's to leave an impression and with this it succeeds. Sounds, music, and visuals are perfectly arranged around the narration. Everything feels perfectly polished. An artistic masterpiece with lasting appeal.
Feb 15, 201210
Feb 14, 20129Most beautiful game I have ever played. Not so much a game as an audio-visual experience with a poetic narrative and an emotional pay-off. If you are a skeptic as to whether or not games can be art, please buy Dear Esther...

Apr 19, 20120This is not really a game when you remove the traditional gameplay style. Besides the boring storytelling, decent music and good graphics of the Source Engine, this HL2 mod turning into an Indie as a remake should have been a computer-graphic movie instead on YouTube rather than playing through it. Therefore it's not worth the money and the playing time.
Mar 2, 20125Art = 10/10
Game = 0/10
Overall = 5/10
It's really really nice, but it's also really rally booooring! I almost slept when I was 'playing' this 'game'... -
Apr 11, 20123This isn't really a game. The only upside of this title are the graphics (great use of a old engine), and supposedly it's history, which I didn't bother to hear because the "game" itself is sooooo boring.
Apr 28, 20120This is a poor excuse for a game. It simply isn't interesting to play and is just simply boring. This is not my type of game. The idea of listening to some boring English guy drone on about crap could put my in a coma. I do not like this game. I simply hate it.

May 3, 20121Here is my detailed guide to Dear Esther. Hold W and guide your character with the mouse. That is the limit of interaction Dear Esther offers. Along the way there are segments of a story which reveals itself as you progress through the island. This is in no way a game and I would not recommend it at even 10 notes.
Jul 18, 20121
Feb 14, 20128
Feb 16, 20129I think this is the most unusual "game" of he last years, nevertheless i think it's worth and 40-60 minutes of your life to meet the interesting story lined presented in a form of monologes, absolutely unique music and sound effects and Source engine based beautiful picture of the lost island.

Mar 22, 201210A clear ten, this isn't just a game, its freaking art. Good music, great story and in general great concept. And the atmosphere is absolutely awesome. Its not for the average "CoD - head" but for anyone with a wider love of gaming will love this. I love that you never get guided anywhere, and the only thing you have to do is walk, and experience it.

May 6, 20120This is not a game its a CGI video of the Hibredian islands I know its £6 or so on steam but save your money go on youtube and look at the vista's on there it will have more gameplay than this
Oct 2, 20128Even though it's questionable if you can call Dear Esther a game since it's more of an interactive story telling. If you're going in to it expecting it to be a game, you're gonna have a bad time. But if you're going in to it with the expectation of seeing exceptionally beautiful landscapes and and a great narrative, chances are you'll end up loving the game. 8/10

Oct 7, 20124I bought this game day 1 and found myself regretting dishing out 15 dollars for it. The island is beautiful and very atmospheric, but that's about all. I would have liked to see a little bit more interactivity than holding down the W button for an hour and a half.

Jul 19, 20123"Dear Esther, how horrid you truly are. Like a virtual tour I grew endlessly tired and helpless, evermore hopeless I was. Wanting, dreaming, and then dreading the time would come when I would then see the light~to find no answer; a shadows cast
Jan 29, 20133I'm all for stretching the boundaries of what can be considered a "game," and I love games with a emphasis on story. But this game fell flat. The story was uninteresting, the music was forgettable, and the pace was unbearably slow.

Feb 24, 20129It is just a beautiful game. It redefines how we play video games today..... a MUST HAVE. It has amazing graphics. And it's really for anyone. It's just such a smart game. You can play it over and over and over again. It never gets old. I just love it!

Apr 28, 20121
May 18, 20129Dear Esther is a thrill ride, brilliant in the way it immerses the player without having to interact in any way with the environment (which btw is stunning) other then movement. One of the best indie titles ive had the joy of playing and sooo worth my £3.75 on steam
May 19, 20123Very pretty graphics, the sea looks excellent and the mountains are great, if you like graphics then buy this program. The story is weird and interesting but this is NOT a game. It is a walk though a dark and wonderful 3D island, you can't win or lose so no game.
Jul 22, 20120
Oct 16, 20124
Nov 18, 20124There is possibly a good game in there but it is covered by walking, walking, and more walking. The walking kind of kills the game because if you take a wrong turn then it takes 5 minutes to walk back on the trail. The story is very hard to follow and understand. The only thing that kept me from giving this game a 1 is the amazing visuals.
Mar 7, 201210An incredibly beautiful and fascinating "game" with deep story and the brilliant music. It is not a game, actually, it is a wonderful prose poem, the unbelievable experience. It is a very rare piece of art in our times.
Mar 4, 201210Dear esther puts you into a beautifully crafted world, the attention to detail is just excellent. Its one of the few games that ive played where it just leaves you sitting there wondering what just happened. The visuals, music and dialogue are all incredible and are weaved into the game perfectly.
Feb 16, 20129
Mar 8, 201210Play Dear Esther in a dark room, headphones on, no distractions, and subtitles turned off. Dear Esther is a broadly magnificent and genuinely moving experience, and that was almost entirely on a sensory level. Playing the game on ultra, I've never seen something this beautiful before. Not even the great BF3 on ultra can't compare itself to this island. Deciphering the plot â

Feb 20, 20129
Mar 3, 20126I respect the artistic merits of this 'game.' I do. But let's be honest, this is slightly interactive fiction. It's an amusement park ride, albeit a tepid one. I recognize I am not the target user of this game, and that's fine.
Feb 19, 20129A very... different experience. I really enjoyed it over all. Simple and minimalist can be a good thing, and it certainly is here. Not a hack and slash in any way, very much a contemplative game. Finished it in two hours, but it was well worth my $10. Very sad, but in the end it seems hopeful, maybe because I am optimistic at heart. It's all so left up to the player.
Mar 1, 201210
Oct 1, 20125While the island you visit is pretty, you
Mar 7, 201210It is what it is. A short semi-interactive story. If you're looking for more in a "game" then it's not for you but if you accept what this is then you'll love it. It's beautiful, emotional and best enjoyed with a good alcoholic beverage. 10/10 and hoping to see more.
Mar 8, 201210This game is simply pure art. Something between good movie, game and book. Or combination of them all. I really experienced island and was there with main character, deep inside his mind. Ending is very sentimental. I can only hope there will be more games ( or what ever it is ) like this one.
Mar 24, 201210definitely not for everyone. It was willing to take the chance in creating sheer atmosphere and speculation for the audience.
It's not at all like conventional games, for better or for worse. Despite the short length its production value (graphics, sound) is quite high. I personally liked it so I'm giving it a 10, that is, however, purely subjective and should only be taken as such -
Aug 12, 20123Regardless of how good the storytelling is, or isn't, 10 USD is way too expensive for an hour of gameplay, let alone non-gameplay. If this is art, I'd rather stick to being an ignorant and uncultured hick.

Oct 20, 20125This review contains spoilers, click expand to view.
Jan 10, 201330With no story or true narrative to latch onto, there's no reason for players to care about what's going on. And there's only one thing ever going on in Dear Esther: nothing. Broken up into individual pieces-the graphics, writing, and music clearly show talent and might have led to interesting stories or games-but together they form a dull, lifeless experience that's quickly forgotten.
Apr 25, 201250To call this piece "a game" and rate it as an ordinary game is not fair. You can find many flaws in the game's mechanics but if you just follow the story your experience will be unforgettable. [Apr 2012]
Mar 13, 201255Thechineseroom studio managed to create something surprising and original, but Dear Esther is something you experience rather than play. [April 2012, p.79]

Create Superior Socarrat at Home with Essential Spanish Paella Ingredients from Raposos Gourmet
Let Raposos' authentic paella kits transport you to sunny coastal Spain.
The Scoop
- Throw a backyard paella party -- fire up your grill, and pretend you're on the coast of Spain.
It all started in a breezy bay near Albufera, Spain, where 18th century Valencians cooked rice over an open fire. Then, the rules were born: you must use a certain, flat pan, your rice must be bomba, and socarrat, the crust that forms at the bottom of the pan, is an important, delicious key player. When you have all of that, you have paella. We may not be able to bring you the breezy bay or the open fire, but Raposos has got everything else you need to be transported to the sunny seaside of Spain. For their authentic paella kits, they've thought of everything -- all you'll need is a pitcher of sangria and a table full of hungry friends.
About Raposos
Having grown up in Spain, the Raposos family knows authentic Spanish cuisine. More specifically, they know paella -- and they want to share it with others. And because they do, they're sourcing all manner of gourmet Spanish foods -- just like the ones they ate growing up -- to keep our travel budgets smaller, and our kitchens better stocked.

'Inside Thirteen' recently caught up with 'Live from the Artists Den' Executive Producer Mark Lieberman and Director of Programming Alan Light. They discussed about the upcoming fourth season and what makes the show unique.
Here is an excerpt from the Q&A interview where Alan Light gives his thoughts on Kid Rock when asked what he is most excited about on the fourth season of 'Live from the Artists Den.'
And certainly shooting Kid Rock – no one has ever done a shoot inside of Graceland, with a performance inside Elvis's home, and it took a lot of disparate pieces aligning to enable us to do that. For Kid Rock, he approached it as a highlight of his career and a real landmark appearance for him. So, the fact that we could enable something like that and take a multi-platinum artist and get them access to something that they couldn't otherwise do, I think that's always what's most exciting for us. They have a lot of choices about the things that they could do – the shows that they could play, the stages they could appear on; we have the ability to do something that they can't do, which is to get them into these really unique spaces and otherwise inaccessible spaces. So when we can do that on that kind of scale, that's a new level of accomplishment for us.
Read the full interview with Mark Lieberman and Alan Light at Thirteen.org.
Kid Rock's performance on the fourth season of 'Live From The Artists Den' airs February 24 on public television. The special taping took place at Elvis Presleys 'Automobile Museum' in Graceland on November 28, a location never before filmed for television.
The new season also features Adele, The Fray, Death Cab for Cutie, Iron and Wine and Amos Lee with special guests Calexico. For more info, visit ArtistsDen.com.

Bored, bored, bored
So I have nothing good to do, so I searched myself in Facebook today. Myself would not appear because I deleted my Facebook account last night. But hey, you know what…
Yes, Facebook suggested I should change 'o' to 'u'.
Its a very long story, but in all actuality, my last name should be 'Tulfo' really, not 'Tolfo'. Blame my father for that, but anyway, so I tried clicking the suggested result, and, voila!
Yes, that's Richard Gutierrez. So some loser guy, whose name is the same as mine, figured he could pose as Richard Gutierrez. Ha ha ha! Anyway, I just find it funny… I'm pretty glad right now that my father changed our last name. At least I'm unique.

New York's El Diario newspaper, which ran a regular opinion column by Prida, called her "an important voice for the Hispanic community in the Big Apple."
"She was ahead of her time in the sense that she's been making the case for Latinos in the U.S. for a long time. Now it's sort of in the news, but 20 years ago Dolores was already writing about Latinos," said Junco, who for years edited columns Prida wrote for the New York Daily News. "She always made the case that we, the Latinos, were an important part of America today, and that was only going to grow."
Her death was unexpected, and the cause was unclear, Junco said. Prida left Saturday night's party because she didn't feel well, then called her sister, telling her she had chest pain.
According to Junco, as paramedics took her to the hospital, Prida described the night's festivities.
"I was at a party," she told them. "I was dancing of joy."

What Is It?
Friedreich's ataxia is an inherited (genetic) disorder that causes certain nerve cells to deteriorate over time. In many cases, this disorder also affects the heart, certain bones and cells in the pancreas that produce insulin. The illness typically begins with difficulty walking. People with Friedreich's ataxia develop clumsy, shaky movements of the legs (called gait ataxia) during childhood or early adolescence. In rare cases, symptoms appear in infants and in middle-aged adults. As the disease gets worse, people may develop bony deformities of the spine and feet, loss of sensation in the limbs, speech problems, abnormal eye movements, heart disease and diabetes.
Scientists believe that many symptoms of Friedreich's ataxia are related to abnormally low levels of frataxin, a protein that helps to protect cells from "free radicals," which are toxic (poisonous) byproducts of the cells' energy production. In a person with Friedreich's ataxia, a segment of the genetic code on chromosome number 9 can have as many as 1,000 repetitions, instead of the normal range of 7 to 22. These repetitions produce an error that leads to a decreased production of frataxin. As free radicals accumulate within cells, and more and more cells are destroyed or altered, the long-term effects of Friedreich's ataxia lead to a thinner spinal cord, enlarged heart muscle, disturbances in speech and eye movement, and loss of the pancreas's ability to regulate blood sugar. Ultimately, almost everyone with Friedreich's ataxia is confined to a wheelchair, and a large percentage of people develop serious heart problems, including heart failure.
Friedreich's ataxia is a recessive disorder, which means that 2 copies of the abnormal ninth chromosome must be inherited (1 from each parent). People who inherit only 1 abnormal copy (approximately 1 of every 90 Americans of European ancestry) don't have the disease, but are "carriers" who can pass the abnormal chromosome to their children.
In the United States, there is a 1 in 50,000 chance that a child will inherit two copies of the abnormal ninth chromosome that produces Friedreich's ataxia. In 85% of cases, symptoms develop before age 25, but rarely before age 5. Although people from all parts of the world suffer from Friedreich's ataxia, studies show that their ancestry is almost always European, North African, Middle Eastern or Indian (Indo-European).
Because Friedreich's ataxia affects many organs, it can produce a variety of symptoms:
In most cases, people with a very high number of repetitions tend to develop the illness earlier than others. They also have more severe symptoms. People with a relatively low number of repetitions may not develop symptoms until age 30 or 40 and may not experience severe heart problems.
A doctor will review your symptoms, medical history and any family history of neuromuscular disorders. You will have a thorough physical exam, with special attention paid to your heart, and a neurological examination, with special attention paid to your legs, arms and eyes. Then, depending on the findings, your doctor may order one or more of the following diagnostic tests:
Genetic testing can confirm the chromosomal abnormality that causes Friedreich's ataxia.
Expected Duration
Friedreich's ataxia is an inherited (genetic) problem that is present at birth and persists throughout life.
There is no way to prevent Friedreich's ataxia. Through genetic testing and genetic counseling, people can get information about their risk of passing Friedreich's ataxia on to their children.
There is no way to correct or remove the extra repetitions that cause Friedreich's ataxia. Treatment focuses on relieving symptoms, keeping the condition from getting worse and prolonging life. Treatment may include:
When To Call a Professional
If a close relative has Friedreich's ataxia, ask your doctor about your risk of carrying the disorder. Depending on your relationship to the affected person, your doctor may recommend that you have genetic testing before you start a family.
The outlook depends on many factors, including when symptoms start (there is a poorer prognosis the earlier the symptoms begin), how bad the symptoms are and the quality of medical care. Typically, people with Friedreich's ataxia are confined to a wheelchair within 15 to 20 years after their symptoms begin. Many eventually become incapacitated. Death in adulthood is common, usually from heart disease. However, with good medical care, some people with less severe cases can live into their sixties or seventies.

Fire Department, Aging in Paradise explore possible collaboration
Date: February 5, 2013
by: Robin Hartill | City Editor
Longboat Key Fire Rescue and Aging in Paradise Resource Center officials are discussing possible ways to collaborate on assisting the Key's senior population.
Fire Rescue Chief Paul Dezzi met with AIP Director Cindy Clay and Longboat Island Chapel board member Dick Pelton Monday morning to discuss ways to work together. He plans to have a representative attend future AIP meetings.
"I think we, as a fire department/EMS agency can do well with the agency," Dezzi said.
The department will include information about AIP when it distributes medical information door-to-door and participate in a March 9 health fair at the chapel.
Dezzi also gave AIP more than 200 File of Life magnets, which allow residents to post vital information such as medications and emergency contact numbers on their refrigerators, for distribution.
Dezzi believes that working with the AIP and promoting its preventative programs could even reduce 911-call volume.
AIP is a community service initiative of the Longboat Island Chapel.
For more information, pick up a Feb. 7 copy of the Longboat Observer.
