Maybe you don’t want to worry about tax planning because your living situation has not changed from last year. Maybe you don’t want to spend the time to plan because your tax return is not due until April 15 of next year. Maybe tax planning just bores you! However, a little planning now can save you money next year--and we all like saving money! Tax planning should really take place all throughout the year, but it is not too late to start. Even though your tax return will not be submitted until April of next year, you only have until December 31 of this year to qualify for any tax deductions and tax credits. Take action now to claim deductions and credits on your next tax return and have your best tax year ever! la Jeanette Heesaker CPA March Specials 3/1 — $1 OFF Bacon Deluxe Value Baskets! 3/5 — Half Price Two Scoop Banana Splits 3/8 — $3 Double Deluxe Butterburgers 3/12 — $1 Short Mint Oreo Shakes!

Super teams. Super players. Super stadium. Super day. Super parties. Super national anthem. Super halftime show. Super fans. Super nacho cheese sauce in my slow cooker. And of course, my personal favorite, super commercials. When it comes to the Super Bowl, football is only part of the day. Advertisements during the big game have become so popular they create a conundrum for viewers. When to replenish your beverage – during the game or during the commercials? You really don’t want to miss either so most of us do what I call the penalty flag dash. The hype surrounding a 15 or 30 second spot for Doritos is almost as exciting as the game itself (not to mention the birth of a baby). The anticipation grows during the days preceding Super Sunday. Which will have the better ad – Coke or Pepsi? Who’s not going to be themselves until they eat a Snickers bar? How will the Clydesdales and Labrador pups tug at our heartstrings this year? Unfortunately for me, they didn’t. The majestic horses weren’t teamed with little puppies in the name of selling beer. Instead the company opted for a British actress who lectured viewers saying people who didn’t listen to her message were a, “shortsighted, utterly useless, oxygen-wasting human form of pollution.” While her message was a fine one, I’m not sure how calling millions of people useless will lead to increased beer sales. But I’m no advertising guru. Even so, I would have preferred a few puppies. In a year where the Panthers faced the Broncos, it seemed fitting there were a number of ads that featured animals. I’m always in favor of a cutesy, clever critter commercial. You’ve got to love the ingenuity and inspiration that went into the wiener dog ad. It takes nothing short of creative brilliance to come up with the idea of dressing a wiener dog like a wiener. And then (wait for it…) multiplying the effect with dozens of The Shopper /February 24, 2016 - Page 5 h e T ’ L n i i n t t k i s — 2016 — H It’s that time of year for the Annual Stateline Golf Guide This year will feature golf tips, general information, course information, prices, and highlighted features of area golf courses Rockford Journal, Post-Journal, Beloit Shopper, Herald, Cherry Valley Shopper, Belvidere Daily Republican, McHenry County News and Independent Register Jill Pertler SLICES OF LIFE wiener dogs and having them run toward people dressed as giant bottles of ketchup, mustard and other assorted condiments. That’s the exact sort of unique cleverness I tune in to see each year – even though this one made me lose my appetite. I enjoyed the talking grizzly bears, especially the one that claimed to be vegan. (Gotta love the sarcastic humor of bears.) Another favorite was the sheep singing a classic Queen song. A cappella. In perfect harmony. Who even knew sheep could sing? The marmot spot pushed a bunch of cuteness buttons. Plus it educated a few of us about marmots, which I’ve always called ground hogs. Prior to last Sunday, I’d never even heard of a marmot. Varmint, yes. Marmot no. Not that I’m mistaking one for the other. But if it looks like a rodent and walks like a rodent… I’ve saved the best for last. One word: puppy-monkey-baby. By creating a creature with the head of a pug dog, the body and tail of a monkey and legs of a baby (complete with diaper) the ad coined a new term for all things weird in less than 30 seconds. Plus the little critter had a rattle and wasn’t afraid to shake it. I used to be afraid of clowns. Now I have to worry about a puppymonkey-baby hiding under my bed. The Super Bowl: more than 100 million people tuned in this year – some to watch the game, some to watch the commercials (and all to eat nachos). Now we wait. For a whole 12 months to see which teams make it to the big game and which commercials to our flat screens. Like many of us, I’ll be watching eagerly to find out. Because as effective as the marmot and monkey-puppy-baby were, next year I really hope they bring back the horses and the puppies.

STATELINE — Average retail gasoline prices in the Rockford area have fallen 6.2 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $1.51/g as of last Sunday, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 139 gas outlets in Rockford. This compares with the national average that has fallen 3.9 cents per gallon in the last week to $1.69/g, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com. Including the change in gas prices in Rockford during the past week, prices last weekend were 81.3 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 32.6 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 23.0 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 55.5 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago. According to GasBuddy historical data, gasoline prices on Feb. 15 in Rockford have ranged widely over the last five years: $2.32/g in 2015, $3.36/g in 2014, $3.73/g in 2013, $3.50/g in 2012 and $3.13/g in 2011. Areas nearby Rockford and their current gas price climate: Chicago - $1.66/g, flat from last week’s $1.66/g. Madison - $1.50/g, down 5.8 cents per gallon from last week’s $1.56/g. Milwaukee - $1.46/g, down 0.8 cents per gallon from last week’s $1.47/g. “We are mid-February and 45 out of 50 states have a state gas average below $2 and the national average is at a multiyear low. Sadly, these incredibly low gas prices won’t be here forever, as refineries talk of production cuts with crude oil at 13 year low,” said Jeff Pelton, a GasBuddy.com senior petroleum analyst.. “Additionally, their Spring turnarounds and the changeover to summer spec gasoline also loom ominously on the horizon. The sooner the refineries can complete their maintenance and start producing gasoline again the better for drivers everywhere.” Man killed in accident on East State Street ROCKFORD — On Saturday, Feb. 13, shortly after 11 a.m. patrol officers from the Rockford Police Department responded to the 5000 block of East State Street in reference to a two-car accident. Upon arrival, officers witnessed a minivan and car had collided head on in the east bound lanes of East State Street. The driver of the car, a 31-yearold male, was transported to a local hospital where he was pronounced dead. The two occupants of the minivan were transported to a local hospital with non-life threating injuries. The name of the deceased is being withheld until family notification. Don’t wait!

Each zodiac animal rolls around every 12 years so it will not be monkey time again until 2028. The emphasis this go-round is the element of fire. Fire monkeys are known to be ambitious and adventurous, a good omen for the year for us all. The color red is part of the big celebrations in China, as it chases away bad luck. I perhaps can add more red to my wardrobe. Perhaps red lipstick or red streak in my hair. Now that would be fiery. It’s fascinating to me that the Chinese New Year is celebrated around the world, as is “regular” New Year’s Day, which shows we like to party and that “new year” is arbitrary. China does follow the Gregorian calendar but the ancient Chinese calendar, based on lunar phases, solar solstices, and equinoxes, remains traditionally significant. Families Kelly Simmons COLUMNIST come together to feast and pray and give thanks for their blessings. Always a good thing. We in the Western world like to look for guidance from the Chinese astrological calendar as it may carry more weight than runof-the-mill new year resolutions. I was born under the sign of the dragon, as was my prince. I like being a dragon, as it is the only sign that is a mythical creature. Dragons are said to be lucky, flexible, eccentric, imaginative, artistic, spiritual, charismatic. The attributes for each of the 12 signs of the Chinese zodiac are New Nursing Career Start the New Year with a New Job!

We may think of a rat as yucky, but those born under that sign are given the characteristics of Intelligent, adaptable, quick-witted, charming, artistic, sociable. If someone calls you a pig, you can claim if you were born in the year of the pig that your qualities are honorable, philanthropic, determined, optimistic, sincere, sociable. How we view our animals shows our cultural bias. I love this kind of stuff but it reminds me how much we look outside of ourselves for validation. We want to know the horoscopes and predictions for the year ahead. How about we say: It will be as good as you allow it to be. In my “research” for this column, I found the same information on Chinese New Year posted over and over across various sites. I googled “predictions for 2016.” There were articles on the presidential election and the economy, but I clicked on the one mentioning Nostradamus’s predictions for 2016. The article opened with “if the world hasn’t ended by 2015….. Hmm, not much psychic ability there. Let’s make our own predictions. We’ll have a new president in 2016 and still will have an economy. We will have weather. We also have our own internal economy and our own thermostat. I choose my world, my way. (We Dragons are eccentric, after all.) I have come to see that when I look for the best, I get even better. And when I look for the worse, I get that too. More of our life is own doing than we realize and it doesn’t matter if you were born a sheep, an ox, or a monkey. Enjoy the celebrations. Look for the serendipities. Latch on to the confirmations of who you are: “Why, yes I am brave, just like the tiger” or “You bet I am the epitome of punctuality. I was born under the sign of the rooster, you know!” Have fun with the Chinese New Year. Just plain have fun. Don’t wait for a calendar or horoscope to tell you so.
