Know when to claim tax credits) deductions Tax credits and tax deductions are two common ways people lower their income tax bills. Although similar in intention, these two tax-reduction methods have fundamental differences and are not interchangeable. Knowing the difference can have a big impact on your bottom line. Basically, tax credits lower your tax amount, dollar for dollar; whereas tax deductions reduce your taxable income. The ultimate value of a deduction depends on your tax bracket: So, if you're in the 25 percent tax bracket, $1,000 in deductions might lower your tax bill by $250 (25 percent); but a $1 ,000 credit can lower your tax bill by the full $1 ,000, no matter what your tax bracket. Read on for more differences: Tax Credits. There are two basic types of tax credits: refundable and non-refundable. With refundable tax credits, if you owe Jess in income tax than your eligible tax credit(s), not only do you pay no tax' you actually get a refund for the difference. So f or example, if you owe $750 in income tax but have $1,000 in refundable credits, you will receive a $ 250 refund. Common refundable credits include: Earned Income Credit for low-income workAdd'1 · I Ch'ld 1. ers; .twna Tax Credit for certam · people who get less than the full amo~nt of the re~ular Child Tax . Credit; and . a credlt for those With more than one employer ':"'ho had t.oo much. SocJal Secunty tax wahheld. . Most tax cred1ts are n o .n - r e f u n d a b I e , whi,ch means they cant reduce taxes o.wed to less t?an zero (t.e., they cant generate a. refund when the credlt amount is greater than taxes owed). Common nonrefundable credits include those for: standard child credit; child and dependent care; elderly or disabled people; A m e r i c a n Opportunity (an enhanced version of Hope Scholarships up to 40 percent refundable for most people); lifetime learning; adoption; residential energy efficiency; and retirement savings contributions for lowincome families. Tax Deductions. For many P,eople, it's more advantageous to take the standard deduction, which is subtracted from gross income to determine taxable income. Others, with large medical, state and local tax. charitable donation and other expenses are better off itemizing deductions. Common tax deductions ·include those for: medical and dental expenses exceeding 7.5 percent of adjusted gross income; deductible taxes paid elsewhere (state, local and foreign income tax' property tax' sales tax, etc.); home mortgage points; charitable contributions; casualty and theft losses; and certain education and workrelated expenses.

For the mo~t part, the e-mails are innocuous, but I got this strange one from a guy who used to sit in back of me in grade school. He apologized profusely and at length for an incident I don't even remember the last time I saw him wa~ 30 years ago! How on earth do I reply to such a thing? - B.R. Dear B.R.: The popularity of social-networking sites such as Facebook really has changed the way we communicate with our old friends and acquaintances. It used to be that we kept in touch with a few best friends from school and college, and waited till the highschool reunion every decade or so to rehash old memories from years gone by. But the availability of nearly everyone online has led to s9me strange reminiscences. Things most of us have long forgotten arc brought up by people we may never have given a thought to for eons. This can be very confusing for people who are living their lives and prefer to leave the playground battles in the dim memory of the swing set. People who contact you out of the blue with apologies probably have been in touch. with a lot of folks from their past and have been transported back in time, in a manner of speaking.

I really enjoy her company and think we have a great time when we go out but the next day, I always seem to get an e-mail from her explaining in great detail some offhand remark she made, and how she didn't mean any offense. She is in no way offensive! It's gotten to the point where I watch what I say around her. and it's driving me crazy! What makes someone so sensitive, and what can I do to help her? - N.H. Dear N.H.: It is nice that you are being so ... well ... sensitive to your friend's feelings! But when one IS overly concerned about how she appears in others' eyes, it almost always is a losing battle for the friend who is trying to make sure nothing the slightest bit upsetting is ever said. Most of us don't like to be muzzled or have to walk on eggshells, especially when we are around people we have chosen to be friends w1th and whose company we generally enjoy. This kind of hypervigilanc<! to anything that might set .your friend off must be exhausting, and it may be time for you to confront her with the truth. It's not really fair to the friendship - especially to you - to have to constantly spend time reassuring someone that you like her. This plan. of course, is fraught with peril. as it is just the type of con versa-· tion that can make your friend feel that you are being critical and that she has done something wrong to make you so unhappy. Then she may start up the apology machine and you"ll be hard-pressed to get her to come down to earth. I think this type of person needs a lot of assurance that you find her delightfuL that we all make mistakes but it doesn't mean we are going to be held accountable for every false move or wrong word. Show her that you care by ignoring her apologies and moving on. Perhaps after this little pep talk. she will begin to get the message.

Overexertion injuries, mainly sprains and strains, to the back or spine comprise about 40 percent of both on. and off-the-job injuries. Here are some tools to help prevent overexertion: It's irpportant to: f Plan c:..1ead before lifting. Knowing what you're doing and where you're going will prevent you from making awkward movements while holding something heavy. Clear a path, and if lif~ing something with another person, make sure both of you agree on the plan. Lift close to your body. You will be a stronger, and more stable lifter if the object is held close to your body rather than at the end of your reach. Make sure you have a firm hold on the object you are lifting, and keep it balanced close to your body. Feet shoulder width apart. A solid base of support is important while lifting. Holding your feet too close together will be unstable, too far apart will hinder movement. Keep the feet about shoulder width apart and take short steps. Bend your knees and keep your back straight. Practice the lifting motion before you lift the object, and think about your motiQn before you lift. Focus on keeping you spine straight-raise and lower to the ground by bending your knees. Tighten your stomach muscles . Tightening your abdominal muscles will hold your back in a good lifting position and will h~lp prevent excessive force on the spine. Lift with your legs. Your legs are many times stronger than your back muscles-let your strength work in your favor. Again, lower to the ground by bending your knees, not your back. Keeping your eyes focused upwards helps to keep your back straight. If you're straining, get. help. If an object is too heavy, or awkwar in shape, make sure you have someone around who can help you lift.

Yet as casino gambling ha!-> migrated from America's storied sambling tO\\ ns to mtddlc America. the complimentary cocktail hasn't ah•.:ays sun ived the trip. The reasons a~e sometimes moral. sometimes economic. The ne\V generation of casinos faces varying guidelines established by local legislators who didn't always suppOtt their arrival.

"but I do belie' e :\lid west culture supports not sen ing alcohol freeh. on a 24/7 basis. It's seen for the damage it does to communities.'' For Kansas. like some other Midwestern state:-. free drinks at casinos weren't even an option: They're banned at establishments statewide. The state has a l9ng history of alcohol restrictions. including statewide bans on happy hour specials and drinking games. such as beer pong. "I'm sure it came out of the Prohibition era. the -- ------.. temperance and nwdcration," said Tom Groneman, head of Kansa:..' liquor control agency.

But two straight losses in Boston led to a dire series deficit for the Lakers, who hadn't even trailed in any playoff series this season. The Celtics have won three of the last four games, and they're responsible for Los Angeles' only home loss of the playoffs. So why dido 't Jackson or Bryant seem particularly worried before they headed out on their final cross-country flight of the postseason? Throughout a trying season filled with injunes and big-~ame setbacks since a christmas Day loss to Cleveland, the Lakers have always been able to rise when they absolutely needed to do it.

(AP) - Denny Hamlin, his No. 11 Toyota becoming a distant spec on the horizon to the rest · of the field late in Sunday's NASCAR race at Michigan International Speedway, heard the caution call come over the radio and tried not to roll his eyes. He knows nobody wants to watch a driver lead by 10 seconds, as he was doing at the time. It makes for bad TV. And even though Hamlin didn't see any debris on the track when the yellow flag flew, he didn't exactly panic when his massive advan, tage was wiped out. "I understand this is show business," Hamlin said. Besides. it turned out to be no big deal for NASCAR ·s latest showstopper. Hamlin easily pulled away from Kasey Kahne on the restart with 14 laps remaining and rolled to his fifth victory of the season. dominating the 400-mile race \\ith the same ease in which he's dominated the series over • the past three months. "I didn't like watching him drive away from me, but I wasn't surprised when he did," said Kahne. "I thought we had a really good car ... the 11 was just a touch better." Kahne highlighted a resurgent day for Ford by finishing second, followed by pole-sitter Klllt Busch, Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart. Four-time defending champion Jimmie Johnson was sixth and Dale Eamhardt Jr. was seventh. They all, however, were merely bystanders as Hamlin continued his hot streak that began with a victory in Martinsville in late March. He led 123 laps and has won five of the past I 0 races, and done it in all kinds of ways over all kinds of circuits. Short tracks. Intermediate ovals. Massive speed"" ays. Shootouts. Blowouts.

Los Angeles'. inside game has been tts most decided advantage throughout the season, yet Boston largely has out- AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - The Big J 2 is alive and kicking. The University of Texas on Monday said it was staying in the Big I 2, followed moments later by pledges from Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas A&M to remain in a league that had seemed to be fall ing apart last week when Nebraska (Big Ten) and Colorado (Pac-10) decided to leave over the next two years. The Texas announce· ment came shortly after Pac-10 commissioner Larry Scott confirmed to The Associated Press in an e-mail that Texas had declined an invitation to become the 12th member of his conference. Scott said Texas president William Powers Jr. told him "the 10 remaining schools in the Big 12 Conference intend to stay together." Powers wouldn't give any details about why the school decided to stay put when asked by the AP. The school has scheduled a news conference for Tuesday morning. A person with direct knowledge of discus· sions among the Big I 2 's remaining mem· bers said Texas is clear to set up its own TV network and keep all proceeds in exchange for remaining in the Big 12. The person, speaking on condition of anonymity because nothing has been finalized, said details were still being worked out. The fate of the conference born in 1996 when the Big 8 merged with four members of the Southwest Conference has been at risk for days, and Texas emerged as the key to the Big 12's survival. The Pac- I 0 courted Texas and other Big 12 South Division schools, while Texas A&M reportedly expressed interest in going to the Southeastern Conference barring a better offer. "Texas A&M is a proud member of the Big 12 Conference and will continue to be affil· iated with the conference in the future," school president R. Bowen Loftin said in a statement. I Officials at Oklahoma State and Oklahoma issued similar statements, with OSU president Burns Hargis singling out Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe for his "bold moves and intense efforts." Beebe did not return messages seeking comment Monday. The news that the Big 12 survived spread quickly. ''That's great news," said Scott Drew, whose Baylor men's basketball team advanced to the South regional final in the NCAA tournament a months ago. few "Obviously, we're very excited and pleased about the I 0 schools staying together. It will be great to continue the rivalries and tradi· tions." Texas A&M had represented another wild card. with school officials meeting with Pac10 and SEC officials in recent days. If the Aggies are serious about leaving for the SEC, no matter what Texas and the others decide , would that prompt the Longhorns, Sooners and the rest to decide the Big 12 is not worth saving with only nine members? Texas A&M regent Gene Stallings sai.d Monday he wants th Big 12 to survive an would vote to keep the Aggies in the league if they don 't get a much better offer. Stallings told The Associated Press that keeping the Big 12 together "would tickle me to death." Stallings coached Alabama to a football national championship in 1992. He has said that if Texas A&M does move, he'd rather see the Aggies go to the SEC than the Pac·l 0, but his comments Monday suggested that would be a last resort. "I know how hard all the Big 12 coaches have worked to make our conference the No. l conference in the country," Baylor's Drew said. "When you achieve that status, yo. obviously don't want t see it disappear. The rivalries and traditions and fans support are what help make the Big 12 the best conference in the country.'' Tom lzzo declines to give camper scoop.on plans EAST LANSING. Mich. (AP) - Tom Izzo wouldn't even tell one of his young campers if he wants to coach the Cleveland Cavaliers or stay at Michigan State. Izzo was at his basketball camp Monday when a boy tried to get the scoop, inquiring about the coach's interest in jumping to the NBA. "Bad question," Izzo said. "Those guys up there want to know that." Cleveland wouldn't mind an answer either. But Izzo had nothing new to say Monday night, declining comment to two reporters waiting outside his office. He's trying to stay quiet publicly until he has decided whether to leave the place that has been his home since 1983 and jump to the NBA to perhaps make $6 million - doubling his salary - and possibly coaching one of the best basketball players in the world. Clearly, lzzo would like to know whether he would have LeBron TV cameras and two James to coach next sea· photographers were son. given limited access to A person familiar with the camp as Izzo the situation, however. addressed hundreds of told the AP that James boys and many of their has not spoken to Izzo parents at the Breslin about Cleveland's coach- Center. where his chaming vacancy, and the pionship and Final Four two·time NBA MVP has banners are in the rafters.

Both played for the Spartans when Izzo was a rela· tively unknown assistant for Jud Heathcote.
