 Eye Area care


Taking care of the eye area is especially important if you want younger looking skin. The eye area is especially sensitive and delicate. It also has less fat under the eye as well. Since there is little fat and the skin is so delicate, it is more likely to wrinkle than the rest of your body. This means that you need to take special care of your eyes. Using a special eye cream is an excellent idea, since eye creams and serums are designed especially for this area of your skin. Staying hydrated can also be helpful for keeping the eye area looking its best. Remember, your eyes can quickly age, so take special care of them to make sure you stay looking as young as possible.

 Wrinkles




Of course, if you want to keep skin looking young, you first need to understand what causes wrinkles to occur in the first place. Often wrinkles occur because of sun exposure, genetics, the loss of fat, and reduced production of collagen and elastin. Skin gets thinner, it doesn’t produce the collagen and elastin it needs, and wrinkles begin to appear, making you look older.

 Prevention 


One of the keys to younger looking skin is to remember that prevention is definitely important. Simply using sunscreen is one of the best methods of prevention against aging skin. With the application of sunscreen, you can avoid photo damaged skin, sunburns, skin cancers, and more. You can make it easy for yourself by using moisturizers that have sunscreen in them, which makes your daily skincare routine faster and easier.

Sun-screen

What is more influential then expensive chemical cosmetics. They affect the body internally and not externally.

Simple ideas to stretch your car running cost in 2014



How to spend less on running a car cost in 2014




Crazy Gas Prices driving us to walk more. Increasingly pinched at the pump, more than ever, are looking for ways to save on two of their least favorite car costs: gas and car insurance. Here are two tips to save on your car cost.

Simple ideas to stretch your car running cost in 2014

 

1st Idea- Save money at the Gas pumps


1st tip- Turn off the car when not driving (cost gas)


You get 0 kilometers per liter if your car is idling. You're not going anywhere, but you're using up costly gas. Instead of idling at a drive-up window, why not park the car and go in? Not only is it often faster, but idling in a line for longer than 10 seconds burns more gas than restarting the engine. Idle for more than 10 minutes a day and you'll find that you use about five per cent more fuel every year.

 

2nd tip-Relax and enjoy the drive (save 30 percent on fuel)


If someone told you that you could save two or three minutes of your time by burning 25 per cent more fuel would you think it was worth it? Drivers with aggressive driving tendencies (like speeding, rapid acceleration and hard braking), increase their fuel consumption by about 25 per cent. Consider as well that aggressive city driving only saves you about 2½ minutes on a 60 minute trip. It hardly seems worth it.

Simple ideas to stretch your car running cost in 2014

3rd tip- Slow down (follow posted limit)


On most major Canadian highways the posted limit is 100 km/h. If you have a heave foot and like to increase your cruising speed from 100 to 120 km/h, you are also increasing your vehicle's fuel consumption by about 20 per cent. Do you really want to buy 20 per cent more gas at today's prices?. If you follow the posted limit, you will also not get any driving ticket.



4rth tip-Stuff on your car (mileage reduce 1-2 percent with junk in car)


Too often cars become a storage room. While it may seem convenient, it's estimated that for every additional 100 pounds in your vehicle you are likely reducing the mileage you get per tank by 1-2 per cent.

 

5th tip - Keep your car maintained


Your car was designed with certain minimum requirements for optimal operation and when these minimums are not met your fuel-efficiency suffers. Consider:

•Your tires. Keeping your tires properly inflated helps your car run efficiently. So much so that properly inflated tires can save you up to two weeks worth of gas each year.
•Your motor oil. Improve your gas mileage by 1-2 per cent by using the manufacturer's recommended grade of motor oil - use anything else and you're not getting all you can from your car.

How to complete exterior home/backyard maintenance in spring



Exterior home/backyard maintenance spring Check List



Begin exterior work with yard clean-up projects to close out harsh winter damage and to prepare for the new growth season. Prune trees, shrubs, and flower foliage with so the plants can take off with quick, healthy growth. Plan to systematically clean exterior home features, outdoor structures, and even outdoor furniture useful for warmer


How to complete exterior home/backyard maintenance in spring


weather. Assess all possessions to make repairs and conduct yearly maintenance. Get ready to enjoy the warmer weather with some fresh improvement ideas.
As soon as the weather begins to warm, the instinct to clean and to prepare for new growth prevails.

Part 1-How to CLOSE-OUT WINTER stuff


Spring is a great time to start the yard clean-up after the cold, harsh winter.

Remove burlap that was added to the trees and shrubs during late fall
If irrigation lines loosened with the freezing soils, go through the system and pin down loose parts.
Use a power washer to clean the exterior of the home, hard surfaces, and outdoor structures.


How to complete exterior home/backyard maintenance in spring

Use a pressure washer to clean the home’s exterior. The recommended strength for either an electric- or a gas-powered pressure washer is 1200-3000psi; the higher the power, the higher the pressure.
Do a little experimenting on a corner of the siding, for example, to make sure the pressure is not too high to cause damage. Do not power wash window screens.
Go through and prune all tree branches in the yard that may have dried up over the winter. Additionally, early spring is a good time to do structural pruning.
How to complete exterior home/backyard maintenance in spring
Use a handsaw for branches that are over ½" diameter.
Shape hedges with hand pruners rather than with powered shearers so that the shrubs do not respond with overgrowth as the weather warms up.
Prune unwanted shoots at intersecting tree branches.
Prune rose of Sharon shrubs before the buds appear.
Prune spring blooming shrubs such as the forsythia after it begins to flower.
Prune evergreen trees back to intersecting branches.
Provide supplemental deep food for tree roots, especially for small trees that are not yet established.
Do not ever trim more than 1/3 of a tree.
Hire a licensed, insured arborist for trimming large branches.
Prune perennial plants in flower beds to prepare for the new growth season fast approaching.

Trim down perennials to a height of 4" - 5".
Trim ornamental grasses to a height of 2" - 3".
Transplant plants such as daylilies and hostas leaving at least 3 stems per clump.
With climbing plants, remove older woody canes, then use jute twine or Velcro fasteners to reshape vine plants.
Consider purchasing a tool bag, waste basket, gloves, plant ties, a lopper trimmer, a bypass hand pruner, a kneeling pad and seat.
Mix rubbing alcohol with an equal part of water and put into a spray bottle to apply to the pruners after snipping each shrub to prevent the spread of shrub disease.
Clean out the flower beds and flower borders to prepare the soil for fresh plantings when the weather warms up.

Rake out fallen leaves and dead foliage.
Pull up annuals if not already done so in the fall.
Remove existing mulch to set the stage for new mulch.
Push down the roots of heaved plants.
Add fertilizer recommended for the flowers in the bed.
Add a 5-10-10 fertilizer around bulbs.
Use a square-head shovel to give the flower beds a clean edge.
If there are rose bushes on your property, begin to prune the roses so that healthy new growth begins as the weather warms.

Prune repeat-blooming rose varieties in early spring.
Trim rose canes to 1" below blackened areas.
Dab wood glue at the end of pruned canes to deter insects.
Remove any noticeable weeds now before they seed and spread.

Pull up dandelions before seeding begins through the lawn.
Do not add weeds to compost piles because sprouts could shoot up and reseeding would eventually occur.
Begin the lawn care maintenance schedule to jump start a healthy lawn throughout the growing season.

Check the soil’s pH and then apply soil amendments if needed.
Remove turf damaged from salt, plows, or disease and reseed bare areas.
Grass seeding can begin when the weather is warm in the spring, past any concern for frost. A good rule of thumb for when to start grass seeding is to begin when the forsythia begins to bloom.
Add a 1/2" layer of compost to perennials and any grass seeding areas.
Fertilizers should be added as soon as the temperatures begins to consistently remain warm.
Crabgrass treatments can be applied once temperatures begin to warm up.
If the lawn needs new grass seed and treatments for weeds, seed first and wait a couple weeks before treating the lawn for weeds and crabgrass. Remember that seeding can also be done in the fall as an alternative option.
Check outdoor spigots for damage.

Check to see if outdoor spigots suffered freeze damage.
Turn the water on and try to hold a thumb over the hole, if the thumb can stop a flow of water, then there is likely damage that will need to be replaced.
Check the garden hose to see if it there are cracks or holes. If a purchase is needed, consider visiting our buyers guide for residential garden hoses.

Get extra refund for vacation after filing this year Income Tax Return?



Income Tax Return (Extra Refund)


This is my third article on personal income tax information. In the last article you see the best free personal tax software to use.

Get extra refund for vacation after filing this year Income Tax Return?


For the last 7 years I am filing my tax return using free software. There are 4 benefits of doing this.

1. Saving of $150 when I could do it myself

2. I didn’t have my own business so I couldn’t deduct my accountant expenses

3. You care about your own money the most (using an accountant is kind of akin to hiring a financial adviser, right?)

4. This is good challenge

In this article you will find how to get more money on your tax return in 2014.

Get extra refund for vacation after filing this year Income Tax Return?

Tip 1-If you contribute to Charity (wait until you amount $200)



Did you know that the rate at which you're able to claim your charitable donations nearly doubles for amounts over $200? For that reason, you should not claim less than $200 in charitable donations in any year. Instead, if you want to optimize your tax situation, carry forward charitable donations (for a maximum of 5 years) and claim them all in a year where your income is higher. You can even combine your donations together with your spouse/common-law partner and claim them all on the return of the higher-income spouse, maximizing the credit.


 

Tip 2-If you have Transit Passes


Keep your Transit Passes: You can get a tax credit of 15%.  If you’re a student, keep your monthly pass because you can deduct the cost you pay for it on your taxes.  If you have a monthly transit pass you can claim those as well (don’t lose them or throw them away! They’re worth something even after the transit pass expires).  The transit passes have to provide detailed information (e.g duration of use, transit authority, amount paid) and are good for a Federal Tax Credit.

 

 

Tip 3-If you have extra money contribute to RRSP


On your Notice of Assessment, you'll find your maximum contribution limit for your RRSP. To maximize your tax advantages, it's usually best to contribute the full amount (for yourself and/or your spouse/partner). But beware! Contributing over your allowed amount may result in actually owing taxes. If you over-contribute, you'll likely need to complete a T1-OVP to calculate the excess contributions and to determine whether you'll pay a 1% tax on those excess contributions.
Do you know when to carry forward RRSP contributions and when to claim them?
Just because you contribute to an RRSP in 2008 does not mean that you need to deduct those contributions on your 2008 taxes. If your income in a tax year is low, consider carrying forward your contributions to a future year when your income may be higher.
During low-income years, it's a good practice to contribute to your RRSPs - even if you're not going to deduct them - because any investment income you earn is sheltered from taxation.

Contribute to your RRSP before March 1: The RRSP deadline is March 1– so hurry up fill yours! You can find how much you’re allowed to contribute on your Notice of Assessment (you know, that form that sent with that cheque?


Tip 4-If you have medical expenses

 


Most people know they can claim payments to a doctor, dentist, nurse, hospital and prescription medications and medical devices. But did you know you can claim:

•Laser eye surgery
•Batteries for a hearing aid
•Incremental costs of special foods for those with Celiac disease
•Certain amounts for attendant care/care in an establishment for a spouse or dependant
•Certain expenses for modifications to your home to accommodate a person with a disability
Did you know...?

•To claim medical expenses, they must exceed 3% of your net income
•To maximize your family's claim, you should claim all medical expenses for yourself, your spouse or common-law partner and your dependants (under 18) on one tax return
•It's usually better for the spouse with the lower income to claim medical expenses - but, if the lower-income spouse already has enough tax credits/deductions, claim them on the higher-income spouse's return or carry them forward
•If you have to travel more than 40km to get medical treatment not available locally, you can claim your travel costs as medical expenses - and more than 80km of travel lets you claim accommodation costs, too

Tip 5-If you have family (getting tax credit)



If you are supporting one or more individuals, you may be eligible to claim tax credits for them. You can often claim credits for your spouse/partner, children, infirm adults (if you are the caregiver) or certain other relatives living with you. Plus, you may also be eligible to receive a transfer of any unused credits they have on their personal income tax returns.

Tip 6-If you have RESP


Contributions to a Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) are not tax deductible. However, any earnings on that investment are sheltered from taxation and not subject to tax until withdrawn when the recipient begins post-secondary education.

Limits for contributing to RESP’s

•There is no annual limit for RESP contributions (prior to 2007, the annual limit was $4000)
•The lifetime RESP contribution limit is $50,000



 

Tip 7-.If You Plan your borrowing (business & investments)



Because interest paid on a business or investment asset loan is tax deductible, use borrowed money to purchase business & investment assets, and use your personal cash to purchase personal use assets, such as a house or vehicle. In order to deduct the interest cost, the direct use of the borrowed funds must be to purchase business or investment assets. If you are self-employed, borrow to invest in your business, not to purchase investment assets such as stocks or bonds.

Tip 8-If you Move to another province


The provincial tax rates you are subject to are based on those of the province where you live as of December 31 of that calendar year. If you are moving to a lower provincial tax rate province, move before the calendar year is up in order to be eligible for the lower rates in the year of filing. Likewise, if you are moving to a province with higher tax rates, wait - if you can - until after December 31 to qualify for one more year of lower tax rates.

Remember that it is the province in which you reside on December 31, not necessarily the province where you are employed, that determines your provincial tax rates.

 

Tip 9-If you have Student Loan


If you are repaying your student loans, you are likely paying interest. But there's good news: You can claim your interest paid on those loans. (Wouldn't getting a bigger refund be a great way to pay down your loans?) Also, you can carry forward student loan interest for up to 5 years. So, if you paid student loan interest in 2004 or in subsequent years and did not claim it on a previous tax return, you can claim it on your 2010 taxes.


Tip 10-.If you paid tuition


If you paid tuition to a specified educational or training institution during the tax year, you are eligible to claim a credit for your tuition fees paid. This not only applies to post-secondary education taken towards earning a degree but also to employment training courses not provided by your employer. Taxpayers are also eligible to claim an education credit for each month spent as a full-or part-time student.

If you’re a recent you can wait to claim your tuition credits for later on, when you’re earning the big bucks.

You can claim:

•Tuition fees for post-secondary education
•Lab expenses
•Library fees
•Examination fees
•Mandatory computer service fees
•Transit passes
•Some textbooks & books included in fees for correspondence courses
•Any GST, HST or PST included with the above
You cannot claim:

•Private tutoring
•Summer school programs
•Supply & equipment costs
•Student association fees
•Social or athletic fees
•Parking fees
•Board & lodging expenses
•Driver's education
•Music, art, drama or dance lessons not associated with a post-secondary educational program
•Camp fees
•Pre-school or play school fees
Carry Forward or Transfer Tuition & Education Credits
If you're a student, you may carry forward unused tuition & education credits to a year when your income may be higher - or you can transfer them to a supporting person (e.g., spouse, common-law partner, parent, and grandparent). NOTE: You can only transfer current-year education & tuition amounts, not balances that you carried forward from a previous year.

Tip 11-If you are working from home


If you work from home more than 50% of the time, there are a large number of deductions that you can account for.  You can deduct your internet expenses and stationary bought provided that you use these to obtain income.  If you rent, you can deduct the portion of rent and any other maintenance costs you would pay for your office space.  Per the CRA “Work space in the home expenses” site, you can also deduct:

You can deduct the part of your costs that relates to your work space, such as the cost of electricity, heating, maintenance, property taxes, and home insurance. However, you cannot deduct mortgage interest or capital cost allowance.

 

 

Tip 12-If you have capital losses


Did you know that capital losses can be carried back 3 years to recover tax paid on capital gains? If you had no capital gains in 2010 but you did have losses, you could use your capital loss to offset a capital gain in any of the 3 previous years (i.e., 2007, 2008 or 2009 taxes).




 Tip 13-If you have a pension income



As of 2007, Canadian pensioners became able to split their pension income - whether from a corporate/other pension plan or certain annuities from an RRIF or RRSP - with their resident spouses or common law partners. If you have eligible pension income, you can use this tax opportunity to split up to one half of your pension with your partner, which may mean significant tax savings for you both.


 

Tip 14-If you want to earn without paying tax



The Government of Canada has called it the single most important personal savings vehicle since the introduction of the RRSP. Have you heard about the tax free savings account (TFSA)?
The TFSA became available on January 1, 2009. It allows Canadians aged 18+ to save up to $5,000CDN every year in a TFSA and to withdraw funds and/or investment income - including capital gains - without being taxed. You can also put back the money you've withdrawn without reducing your allowable contributions.
Although there is no tax credit for contributions to a TFSA, Canadians can realize significant savings in using a TFSA to earn interest without paying taxes on that interest.


Tip 15-If you not file a return


Even if you are certain that you have no balance owing or refund due in a given year, file a tax return for that year. Why? Because filing:

•Reduces the ability of the CRA to subsequently make arbitrary adjustments to your income and taxes owing for that tax year
•Determines your eligibility for government programs, like the Canada Child Tax Benefit (CCTB), GST/HST credit or any new tax rebates that may be announced
•Reports earned income, which increases your future RRSP contribution room - and we all know the value of RRSP as tax reduction tools
