strong grass roots connection to our communities and our commitment to traditional credit union values.” The two credit unions carried out a thorough due diligence process over several months. This informa-tion was shared with members be-fore asking them to take a vote. “We look forward to members from Shaunavon and area becom-ing part of Affinity,” said Scott Fla-vel, President, Affinity Board of Di-rectors. “Both credit unions have a strong commitment to member service excellence and recognize the importance of local communities. This partnership will bring numer-ous benefits to all stakeholders.” The two credit unions will now work toward the merger date of January 1st, 2015. Shaunavon Chief Executive Officer Chuck Gartner and Affinity Chief Executive Officer Mark Lane indicated it will be busi-ness as usual during that time. The two credit unions will continue to keep members up-to-date on any de-velopments and there will be regular communications over the next weeks and months.

I suffer from ADCD, attention deficit Cleaning disorder.
It’s where you start to clean one thing, but get distracted by other
things that need to be cleaned, which causes you to bounce around
to different jobs only to end up doing a lot of work with nothing to
show for it.
A guy sees a lion approaching, falls to his
knees and prays to the Lord in hopes of being saved. All of a sudden the lion
kneels too. the guy says, “you’re saying your
prayers too?”“no, Grace.”

For Wednesday, April 2, 2014ARIES(March 21 to April 19)You are calling the shots today
because you feel rebellious. However, becareful. This is also an accident-proneday for you. Tread carefully.
TAURUS(April 20 to May 20)Like Aries, you, too, feel rebellious,
but in a quiet way. Something is seethingwithin you, making you feel restless andimpatient. Guard against accidents.
GEMINI(May 21 to June 20)A friend will surprise you today by
doing something you least expect. Someof you might meet a new friend who isunusual or bizarre (but exciting and dif-ferent).
CANCER(June 21 to July 22)Avoid confrontations with authority
figures today, because their responsewill be quick and unexpected. You mightget slapped down so fast you won’tknow what hit you.
LEO(July 23 to Aug. 22)Travel plans will be canceled or
rescheduled today. Surprise outcomesrelated to the law are likely. Somethingcould happen that makes you want tobreak free or get out of town.
VIRGO(Aug. 23 to Sept. 22)Stay in touch with your bank account,
because something unexpected couldtake place. Be careful if you are takingcare of someone else’s property or youare responsible for what is not yours.
LIBRA(Sept. 23 to Oct. 22)Someone you know will throw you a
curveball today, so be ready to dodge it.Surprises with partners and close friendsare likely. In fact, an argument couldbreak out.

SAGITTARIUS(Nov. 22 to Dec. 21)Parents and people working with chil-
dren should be aware that this is an acci-dent-prone day for your kids. Be vigi-lant. Remove anything that is potentiallyhazardous.
CAPRICORN(Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)Small appliances might break down
today, or minor breakages could occur athome. Domestic quarrels suddenlymight erupt. Wear water wings and stayaway from the deep end.
AQUARIUS(Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)This is an accident-prone day for your
sign, so be careful. However, it also willbe full of exciting changes with newfaces and new places.
PISCES(Feb. 19 to March 20)Keep an eye on your money today,
because you might find money or losemoney. Similarly, something you ownmight be broken, lost or stolen. (Yikes!)
YOU BORN TODAY You are gentle,childlike and idealistic. People respectyou because you are honest, sincere andhardworking. Your dreams are importantto you, which is why you tend to seethings in black-and-white terms.Fortunately, family grounds you,because you value family. This year youwill work to build or construct some-thing valuable for you. It’s a testing yearand a year of growth.

Spring has arrived, and with longer days and warmer weather comes a new crop of fresh produce. ‘Tis the perfect season to “spring clean” your diet, so out with the heavy fall and winter fare and in with springtime fruits and veggies. In-season produce reaps the most nutritional value so here’s what to look for on the produce aisle or at the local farmers’ market. Watch for a new food item and recipe each day ....
aPRiCotS
For a boost of beta-carotene, potassium, vitamin C, and fiber in a sweet 50-calorie bundle, be sure to bring home apricots from the farmers’ market or grocery store. The peak season for this fresh fruit is from May to August. Sandwiches, snacks, jams, salsas, and salads will all be just a bit sweeter and delicious with apricots.
Fresh Apricot Chutney This apricot chutney is great with any grilled meat—and as a spread with low-fat mayonnaise on sandwiches.
3 1/2 cups cubed pitted apricots (about 1 1/4 pounds)1/2 cup packed light brown sugar1/2 cup chopped red onion1/3 cup cider vinegar1/4 cup golden raisins2 tablespoons honey1 tablespoon minced seeded serrano chile (1 small)1/2 teaspoon salt1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds1/2 teaspoon ground coriander1/2 teaspoon ground cumin1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1. Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until thick, stirring occasionally. Serve warm or at room temperature.
Note:Store this apricot chutney, covered, in the refrigerator for up to one week. A good rule for selecting apricots: If they smell sweet, they probably taste terrific. For spicier chutney, leave the seeds in the serrano chile.

A guy hears a knocking on his door. He opens it up, and no one is there. He looks all around and he finally
sees a little snail sitting on the doormat. He picks it up and
throws it across the street into a field. Ten years go by, and one day
he hears a knocking on his door. He opens it up and no one is there. He
looks all around, and he finally sees a little snail sitting on the doormat.
The snail looks up andsays, “What the hell was that all
about?”
A young man, hired by a supermarket,

MiniMuM WagE to inCREaSE oCtobER 1, 2014gov.ca -The Government of Saskatchewan will increase the province’s min-imum wage from $10 to $10.20 per hour effective October 1, 2014 and will soon introduce regulations to provide for regular indexing of the minimum wage each year. “Increasing the minimum wage will give minimum wage earners more disposable income and improve their standard of living,” Labour Relations and Workplace Safety Minister Don Morgan said. “Indexation of the minimum wage will provide security for minimum wage earners and ensure predictabili-ty for business owners in the province. Since 2007, we have increased the min-imum wage in Saskatchewan six times and have gone from $7.95 to $10.20. That’s 28 per cent, which is well ahead of the rate of inflation.” Highlights of the new minimum wage regulation will include:• Indexation formula will be based on the equal weighting of the percentage changes in the Consumer Price Index and Average Hourly Wage for the previ-ous year.• A change in the minimum wage will be announced on or before June 30 of each year, with that change coming in effect on October 1 of the same year. The Government of Saskatchewan has significatly reduced the tax burden on minimum wage earners by increasing the basic personal, spousal and child benefits and by creating the Saskatchewan Low Income Tax Credit, remov-ing about 112,000 people from the tax rolls. Individual taxpayers now pay no Saskatchewan income tax on their first $18,650 of income while a family of four pays no Saskatchewan income tax on their first $48,320 of income – the highest tax-free income threshold for a family of four in Canada.
