This session will focus, through slides and hand-outs, on how to maintain and improve one's fitness level as one ages. We'll discuss ways to assess oneself according to Cooper's standards, which look at age and gender with respect to cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength, and endurance and flexibility. We'll also include discussion of the role of exercise in reducing risk of heart disease, cancer, and osteoporosis.
Earthquakes take a terrible toll, in life and property damage, when a large one hits.
We will consider the history, origin, and effects of these extremely dynamic evidences of plate interaction. We can't stop them, but by understanding them using the tools of 21st-century science, we may be able to appreciate their awesome power and work to alleviate the havoc they can wreak. This panel, composed of a probate attorney, a trust officer, and a college development officer, will discuss the structure, rates, and deductions of the various federal transfer taxes, and how you can use exemptions and deductions to minimize or entirely eliminate imposition of these little-understood taxes. This seminar should help you understand these taxes better, and will suggest ideas you will want to discuss with your personal consultants. We will talk about these questions and how they define the course that I offer every year to Denison students.
