I tried them for 3 weeks and I felt nausea most of the time--my whole world was floating around. I finally took them back and got a new pair of bifocals.

Modified for my classes to "toes up" in reference to the 3rd definition. Example usage: "The sense of invulnerability that many adolescents have contributes to poor driving decisions. They are more likely to wreck their cars and go toes up."

I'd imagine your FICO is going up because you are paying your bills! If you're like many people in this economy, you're paying down debt. That increases your credit available and decreases your debt to income ratio. Both of those raise your FICO score. If you had gotten some new credit cards a year or so ago and haven't since then, it will also increase your score in two ways--recent credit c

I'd first try the stuff sold at the auto store for removing various debris--tar and bird poo. Presumably that's safe for the paint. If that works, then I'd put some wax over the top.
Please don't use a kitchen scrunge kind of thing--it will scratch the finish.

I think the friend should replace it with a used one. If the kid doesn't come up with the cash, I'd call his parents. In fact, if he does come up with it, I'd call the parents. In either case, they should know the kind of kid they're raising--a responsible one or not.
If the friend and parents don't take responsibility, I'd split it with my kid because I can afford it better than she can.

TurboTax from Costco with $10 off coupon (through the end of January.
Last time I used Taxcut it changed an amount I put in for a 403b deduction--I input more than the standard maximum because I was old enough for the catchup additional deduction. It just changed it to the standard maximum amount. I didn't catch it and had to file an amended return later. My fault for not checking, but th

I bought a locking mailbox for the same reason. I decided not to put in on a post, so I put it into a brick column that I built. I had never laid brick before and found that it wasn't particularly difficult as long as I took my time and was compulsive with a level. It took me a full day to build the column--it's only about 5 feet high. But, it turned out fine and the box is secure.

I'm in the Atlanta area also. I put a heater in the laundry room because it has water in the exterior wall. I wrapped a couple of turns of heat tape around the outside spigots and put an insulating cover on them. That is surely overkill, but better safe than sorry. But, that's only for last night and tonight when it's getting down to 10 degrees. I put covers only on the outside

We're relatively balmy here in N GA with 23 degrees. It's forecast to be 10 tomorrow and 10 the next morning, as well. We'll be 50 hours or so below freezing.
That's going to cause a big problem with all the water faucets on the outside of houses that are not protected. Most homes down here don't have frost-proof outside faucets and a lot of people don't protect them.

We accept AP credit at our college. I have found that students who are coming into my second-level courses having gotten AP credit for the core course are either dynamite or very under-prepared, even if they have the same AP scores. I would assume that the several post

Nope. I had looked for an explanation of what they are doing and ran across the following. If the various posters are correct, it's not a scam (in the sense that they are stealing from you) but it will probably make you poorer!

I'm at a state college and we tend to do better (more bodies/tuition) when the economy goes bad. We had 7% more students in the fall than the previous year and 5% more this semester. Our growth helps drive other growth locally. I'm looking at a new classroom building that they broke ground on over Christmas. It was in the pipeline during the boom times and is just now been started. We're also

Things would quiet down for 90 days (the term that the credit bureaus say they will freeze your credit) and then start up again. Each time I would have to cancel every credit card and get new ones.
Yikes--bad story. But, I wonder if you had a fraud alert on your accounts rather than credit freezes. The fraud alerts expire, but a credit freeze stays on until you specifically unfre

Check the bottom of p 75 for short and long term outcomes of coronary bypass surgery (CABG) vs. coronary angioplasty (PCI). If you are not interested in the comparison, the CABG information, itself, might be what you're interested in.
