The Cruellest Month
April what a marvellous time. Waking up from a small and
suffocating life in winter tothe potential and rising energy of
spring. The yard needs putting in order and where did I putall
those notes for this years garden plan? I cant wait to get out
there in the fresh air andstart digging around. What variety of
tomatoes this year? How about garlic and basil? Fruittrees for sure
and more day lilies. Time to clean out the garage.
Oops. Forgot that I still have to do the bookkeeping for the
income tax. Where is all thatstuff? Probably in the big bag under
the desk, well, most of it is anyway. Id better do thatbefore I
open the garden catalogues. But I cant launch into all those
numbers without a cup
of tea and a little soft music to keep me calm. Aspirin,
definitely aspirin. Deep breaths.Forms, forms, forms. My mind keeps
drifting off to more enticing places like sitting in thesun or
going to a garden nursery
Time to clean out the closets and put away most of the winter
clothes. More t-shirts andsummer dresses. Most of it actually looks
pretty tired. I could sure use something new. Onthe other hand I
need to get the old winter body back in shape again. If I wasnt
sorting outtax forms I could go out for a walk and start to limber
up a little. If I had organized all thesepapers throughout the year
Id be way ahead now. Where did I put that envelope of
receiptsanyway?
They cant be serious! Calculate the amount on line 32. Multiply
line 32 by line 33. Addlines 34 and 35. Enter the amount on line 36
and add to get line 39. Add lines 40 to 43. Sub-tract line 44 from
line 33 (unless negative). Enter the final amount on line 55 on
line 420 ofthe return. I can feel my teeth clinching and my enamel
cracking. This seems to be going incircles. Time for a break and
another cup of tea. Maybe some chocolate, too. Why do myshoulders
feel so tense?
Its now after dinner time. The table is littered with odd sized
pieces if paper. I can enter allthis in the computer program and
have done with it if I can just figure out how it works. Butthen
Ill have to check it all again anyway. Hours are slipping by and Im
still looking forthose tax slips I couldnt find yesterday. Im at
the point where Id pay the government any-thing just to go away and
leave me alone. Ill never live long enough to get to the
garden!
April the cruellest month. I should have stayed soundly asleep
until May. JK

Managing your Money
Claiming the First Time Home Buyers Tax Credit
Buying a home is the largest single purchase most Canadians will
ever make. If you boughtyour first home in the last year, youll no
doubt welcome this tax-reducer: the First TimeHome Buyers Tax
Credit (FTHTBC).
The basics. This new tax credit is intended to help offset
closing costs for certain home buy-ers who acquired a qualifying
home after January 27, 2009. The tax credit is calculated
bymultiplying the lowest income tax rate for the year (15% in 2009)
by $5,000 meaning thequalifying home buyers can claim $750 on their
2009 tax return.
You and/or your spouse/common law partner are eligible for the
credit if you bought a quali-fying home after January 27, 2009 and
neither of you have owned or lived in another homeeither in the
year of purchase or in any of the four preceding years.
Qualifying home. Your new home must be located in Canada and
legally registered in yourand/or your spouses/ common law partners
name. It can be an existing home or a home un-der construction. Any
of these housing types qualify: single family, semi-detached,
town-house, mobile home, condo unit, an apartment in a duplex,
triplex, fourplex or larger apart-ment building. A co-op unit also
qualifies if you have a share in the co-op that entitles you
topossess, and have an equity interest in, the housing unit. It
does not qualify if your share pro-vides only the right to
tenancy.
As well, you must intend to occupy the home as your principal
residence no later than oneyear after you buy it.
Making your claim. Either you or your spouse/common law partner
can claim the credit oryou can share the creditbut the combined
total of your claims cannot exceed $750.
You can claim the $750 without being a first time home buyerif
you are disabled or purchasethe home for a relative who is
disabled, and the home is better suited to the personal needs
orcare of that person.
If you currently participate in the existing Home Buyers Plan,
your First Time HomeBuyers claim will not affect your eligibility
for that plan.
You dont have to send any supporting documents with your tax
return but be sure to keepthe information on file in case the CRA
requests it.
Enjoying your first home is a terrific experienceand saving a
few additional tax dollars ispretty good, too. Make sure you get
the most from your new life and every dollar you earn orinvest by
getting the best possible financial advice from your professional
advisor.

courage under fire ofsome of the militarys greatest heroes:
thetechnicians of the bomb squad; who vol-unteer to challenge the

themen struggle to complete their assign-ments in the turmoil of
Baghdad wherethey dont understand the language, the
culture, or the people and cant trust any-thing but their own
judgement. A probinglook at the soul numbing rigors and po-tent
allure of the modern battlefield.

Ray Kroc opened the firstnew fast-food restaurantin the famous
chain in
Des Plains, Illinois on April 15, 1955.Burgers were 15. That was
before thelegendary Big Mac hit the street in 1967at a whopping
45.
At 52, Kroc invested his entire life sav-
ings to become the exclusive distributorof a brand of milk shake
maker. His big-gest customers owned a hamburger standin California.
When he went to see theplace with his own eyes he was amazedby
their turnover and talked them intoletting him franchise the
McDonaldsbusiness.
The former Dire Straits guitarist and leadvocalist Mark Knopfler
released a songabout Ray Kroc on his 2004 album Shan-gri-La. It was
inspired by Ray Kroc'sautobiography Grinding It Out and thestarting
of McDonald's, using many ofMr. Kroc's exact words: "Kroc
style,boom like that."
April 15:National Contest ofPaso Horses in Peru
The Paso Fino is anaturally-gaited lighthorse breed dating back
to horses importedto the Caribbean from Spain. Pasos areprized for
their smooth, natural, four beat,lateral ambling gait called the
paso llano.They neither gallop nor trot. Pasos are usedin many
disciplines, but are especially popu-lar for trail riding. In the
United States thereare two main groups of horses that are
popu-larly called "Paso Fino:" One originated inPuerto Rico and one
in Columbia. Thoughfrom similar Spanish ancestors, the twogroups
developed independently of one an-other in their home nations.
The gait supplies none of the vertical bouncethat is
characteristic of the trot. It is also verystable, as the execution
of the gait means
there are always two, and sometimes three,feet on the ground.
Because the rider feels nostrain or jolt, these gaited horses are
oftenpopular with riders who have back trouble.
