Don’t forget to file your taxes by Monday, April 18th

Before you rush to file your taxes today, remember that you actually have three more days to get your forms turned in to the tax man.

Instead of being due on April 15, which is typically the filing deadline, your taxes are due Mon., April 18 this year.

The three bonus days come thanks to Emancipation Day, a little-known Washington, D.C., holiday that celebrates the freeing of slaves in the district.

Emancipation Day falls on Sat., April 16, but it is observed in D.C. on Fri., April 15. That prompted the IRS to extend the tax filing deadline to April 18 this year. Under the tax code, filing deadlines can't fall on Saturdays, Sundays or holidays.

Cut-a-thon raises money for UNM student with Lou Gehrig's Disease

An Albuquerque salon cut hair for a good cause on Sunday.

Joseph’s Salon in Old Town held a cut-a-thon to raise money for Patrick Grange. If the name sounds familiar, it might be because Grange played soccer for the University of New Mexico in 2003 and 2004.

Grange has been diagnosed with the degenerative disease ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease.  At age 28, he is the youngest in the state to be diagnosed with ALS.

The cut-a-thon was just the latest way that friends are showing their support for him. “Everybody adores him, I’ve never met anybody who has as many friends as he does,” said fundraising organizer Veronica Aragon.

Next month, UNM’s annual alumni soccer game will raise money for Grange. That’s set for April 23rd.
