"i know we are going to get it in this year and we can write it off but we're not sure about next year."stephanie is not the only one trying to beat the deadline."i'm getting a write-off on taxes."under the new tax law signed by president trump many homeowners will no longer be able to claim their local property taxes as a deduction starting in 2018.hence the push to prepay by december 31st and claim the taxes in 2017."if you are in a 25% tax category and you deduct $10,000 in real estate taxes, that's going to ave your $2500 on taxes.but prepaying property taxes is not right for everyone especially if your itemized deductions are less than the knew standard deductions of $24000 for married couples."no reason to accelerate and take the cash flow out now, if it's not going to help you."check with your financial advisor or tax preparer to see what's best for you.but these folks are determined to prepay in person. "we don't recommend people pay by mail, we can't guarantee

that even though something is post marked before december 31st, that the check can be processed before that."that's why wendy rogers is braving the line."looking forward to calling my cpa now and getting my taxes scheduled, getting them paid."it's money in the bank for tax payers like clarence walker."i have a deduction next year that i probably will get to now, it's all about deductions."

trump: "infrastructure is by far the easiest. people want it, republicans and democrats. we're going to have tremendous democrat support with infrastructure, as you know." but there are different thoughts on how to get it done. the proposed plan lays out at least 200 billion dollars for infrastructure- over ten years. democrats say that's not enough - and the president himself had promised a trillion dollars on the campaign trail and after he took office.president trump: "to launch our national rebuilding, i will be asking the congress to approve legislation that produces a $1 trillion investment in the infrastructure of the united states."even with the lower 200 billion number - republicans hope that money brings 800 billion in state and local matches.texas: "i think that's something leveraged with state and local - and even some but democrats say - not so áprivate dollarsá - rep. john kentucky: "then you allow the determine what gets built. that's not something we see."because critics say private companies that build new roads, bridges and runways will just send the bill to taxpayers or drivers

paying tolls.in order for this bill to pass the senate - republicans would need at least nine democrats to get on board with the plan. in washington, i'm natasha chen reporting (vicki) for the tenth year in a row...americans named former president barack obama the most-admired man in the world. sitting presidents usually win the top spot in the gallup poll's list but obama edged out president trump by three percent to retain the title. former presidential candidate...hill ary clinton won the most admired woman in the u-s for the sixteenth year in a row. she's taken the top spot for a total of 22 times....more than any other man or woman in the poll's history.

technology in a way that allows a multiplicity of voices, allows a diversity of views, but doesn't lead to a balkanisation of society but rather continues to promote ways of finding common ground. and, i'm not sure government can legislate that, but what i do believe is all of us in leadership have to find ways in which we can recreate a common space on the internet. one of the dangers of the internet is that people can have entirely different realities. they can be cocooned in information that reinforces their current biases. there may be somebody who you think is diametrically opposed to you when it comes to your political views, but you root for the same sports team, or you notice that they're really good parents, and that's something as a parent you care about. and, you find areas of common ground, because you see that things aren't as simple as have been portrayed in whatever chat room you've been in. it is also, by the way, harder to be as obnoxious and cruel in person as people can be anonymously on the internet.">(vicki) mister obama also mister (vicki) the internet.">anonymously on the internet.">(vicki) the internet.">(vicki)

(vicki) and the richest people in the world probably don't need help saving money... in fact--- they keep getting richer. we'll tell you who tops the list of the most wealthy. (grant) charities and non profits are preparing for the impact of the republican tax reform plan. why they say it could hurt their work in local communities.

(grant) charities and other non-profits are bracing for the new year and the new tax law. they're concerned people won't give as much next year -- because fewer people will qualify for tax deductible donations. (vicki) our washington correspondent jessica smith reports on how non-profits hope to make ends meet. the united way had opposed the tax reform plan because of how it could impact charitable donations. the salvation army says it could hurt its ability to serve millions of people every year. now that the bill has become law, charities are encouraging people to donate before the end of the year. philanthropy groups estimate the republican tax overhaul could cause charitable giving to drop $13-24 billion dollars every year. tim delaney: in a nutshell, this tax bill will be devastating. tim delaney, the national council of

nonprofits president, says doubling the standard deduction kills the incentive for people to donate. the change means fewer people will itemize their taxes and claim the charitable deduction. do i need this line??? tim delaney: it's going to hurt real people. delaney had hoped to see a universal charitable deduction, that people could claim even if they did not itemize. he says the wealthiest americans will still have incentive to donate, because they're more likely to itemize. tim delaney: the wealthy normally give to large institutions -- a new wing on the hospital, something with higher education -- it's the local y's, united ways, girls scouts that will be impacted.in a tweet, texas senator john cornyn called the argument "idiotic," saying in part "the dubious premise is that the reason people generously give to worthy causes is so they can deduct from their taxes." delaney argues the government will eventually cut spending on social services to pay for tax cuts, and expect nonprofits to fill the gaps.

tim delaney: we're not going to be able to get the job done. elected officials need to know they cannot continue to expect nonprofits and foundations to fill the void that they are creating. delaney is urging people to pressure congress to adjust the law -- and donate before the end of the year while you can still take advantage of the deduction. jessica on cam charities also worry about high tax areas of the country, where people won't be able to deduct all of their property taxes. they say people in those areas will have less money to spare, meaning less money to give to charity. in washington i'm jessica smith (grant) a san francisco theft victim is fighting back. she says she's had 50 packages stolen in the past three months... and its only gotten worse. as kron 4's ella sogomonian tells us... the woman decided to leave a

how a flight mixup makes for a pretty epic selfie for one passenger on board.

(catherine) a passenger mix-up at l-a-x yesterday - caused a pilot to make a u- turn back to the airport. and since it happened about 4 hours into an 11-hour trip - passengers were 'not' happy.

the problem -- a passenger who ended up on the wrong flight. police later dismissedit as a misunderstandi ng. singer john legend and his wife--model chrissy tiegen were on the flight...and tiegen was all over it on twitter... all 226 passengers were put up in a hotel and were put on a different flight this morning.

one was home at the time... and the driver was able to walk away from the crash. hazmat responded to clean up a small leak. the power department turned off electricity to the area and replaced a utility pole that was hit. (catherine) in sports -- the 49ers and raiders are hoping to wrap up their season with a win over divisional rivals.(grant) it's been more than 48 hours since the warriors faced the cavs but players are still talking about kevin durant fouling lebron james in the final minute of the game mark carpenter has a full report and all the sports coming up.

there's a strong chance jimmy g. mania ramps up to another level next week... after the niners face the l-a rams. rams head coach sean mcvay announced this week that they'll be sitting their

key starters--including jared goff, todd gurley, and aaron donald. this is because they won the nfc west over the weekend... and they are guaranteed either the 3rd or 4th seed in the playoffs. the door is now open for jimmy garoppolo and the 49ers to push their win streak to 5- games... and end the year at 6-and-10. head coach kyle shanahan...excited for what the future holds and expects many high-stakes showdowns with the rams. "the hard rivals end up being usually who the better teams in the division are. i hope that we're up there as we get going. i know the rams are there this year, so we're excited to get to play them. again, i wish they had all their guys going, we'll see what happens, but hopefully that can build as we get going, that we'll both be up there each year"."you try to every week say that you're facing a faceless opponent. no matter who it is you want to have the same mindset. no matter what type of game it is, first game of the season, last game of the season. i think we've done that pretty well the last couple of weeks, just coming in, preparing every day, practicing hard, going through

the little critiques of certain plays and i think if we keep going that we'll be good on sunday." turning now to the raiders-- since the playoffs are out of the question, their goal in the last game of the year is to go out on a high note.. and ruin the chargers' postseason hopes. l-a seals a wildcard spot with a win áand a titans loss. and there's a chance they'll miss one of their stars since running back melvin gordon is questionable with a high ankle sprain. the silver and black...relish a chance to spoil the year for a division rival, but if they are going to do so, that offense can't turn in the performance we saw against the eagles. raiders, turned it over 5-times in the 2nd half. through it all, jack del rio...sticking by his offensive cooridinator todd downing. "i do know the guy is super bright. he's going to be a really good coach in this league. i believe in him. those are not things that people want to hear right now because the reality is we've underperformed offensively this year... but it doesn't change my belief. it's what i know. there have been some, a

tough set of circumstances and things have not gone real smooth. not what we're looking for"."we're not consistent enough all year, consistent "we're not "we're not consistent enough all year, especially in the details of our assignments. that's one area that has to and will be cleaned up... but i don't think any expectation is ever too far out there for any team in the nfl. you see a team that's in first place and all those things that we just played on monday night and we're right there". staying in the afc west, the chiefs have already locked up a division title, so this sunday we'll see the debut of rookie quarterback patrick mahomes. kansas city traded up to select him with the 10th overall pick in last year's draft... and he's spent the entire year backing up alex smith. smith has one year left on his contract, so the chiefs want to see if

mahomes has the potential to be their future starter. kc wraps up the regular season in denver. warriors are back to work tonight hosting the jazz. but before we move on, there's still an issue to sort out from that cavs game. and it's all about the call and ánon-calls announced in the last two minute report. two days removed from the game, players from both teams aren't upset about the fouls, their point of contention is with the reports themselves. first issued in 2015, the league started these reports as a way to provide more transparency in the officiating. áhowever, players don't see the use in having them because the results don't change..and it only shows how the refs made mistakes. lebron james...not a fan of these reports and venting about what happened day.

moving on to some year- ender awards-- the associated press announced its top male athlete of 2017. and the honor goes to world series champion and american league mvp jose altuve of the houston astros. the 5-foot-6 2nd baseman...played like a giant all year and led the astros to their first world championship in franchise history. the 5-time all-star, led the majors with a 346 batting average...and was first in the a-l with 204 hits. he beat out tom brady and lebron james in the voting. and finally, we have our winner for the most entertaining college football coach of the year. washington state's mike leach. this is a man that really walks to the beat of his own drum. this was at the holiday bowl press conference where his cougars are playing michigan state. while spartans head coach mike d'antonio is at the podium,

leach is tending to other matters... áfuriously trying to cool off his cup of coffee. --that wasn't all of it, when leach went to the mic, the press conference went off in a weird tangent and he started talking about his childhood pet racoon.
