    State Sales Tax Holidays 2013

    In Missouri, some of the local towns and counties opt out of the tax holiday and still charge their local taxes. You do not pay the 4.225% state sales tax, but you will pay 2.5% to 4.5% depending on the locality.

    New Haswell build

    I have a mini-tower, which can fit a ATX with an inch to spare. I may switch to an smaller case if I can find a room to live in near school, and lug my computer back and forth. But I will probably get a laptop.

    Are you buying Haswell?

    Already ordered. However, my Q6600 machine has been having crash problems for months and I think I hear the hard drive starting to fail. My only questions was K or non-K.

    Choice of new vehicle

    Yes. The choice is dictated by circumstance: I live in a rural area, and any Subaru or VW dealers are over 100 miles away. The window of opportunity to change vehicles went from around this summer to this weekend rather abruptly, so the time to shop for a car at a distant dealer was not...

    Choice of new vehicle

    I am moving from a Jeep Cherokee to something which does not use as much gas (I am going from driving 25-50 miles a week to 500-750). I have looked at the Escape; should I look more?

    Texas hospital will not hire fat people

    This could be a stealth way of discriminating against older workers and minorities. Statistically, the average 25 year-old should be less likely to be obese than the average 45 year-old. Also, more African-Americans and Hispanic-Americans, especially women, could be obese in that area versus the...

    What happens to Student loan limits if you take 10 credit hours for a semester?

    Depends on the school and the loan. Check your school's financial aid web page for information about the loan policies. The most important thing is to check with your financial aid office and be sure that your course load does not trigger the start of the six-month grace period for repayment...

    WWII: What if D-Day didnt succeed?

    Actually, the US might have taken a severe turn to the right. The right would have used any ceasefire as propaganda against liberals in the US, and the higher body count caused by a Soviet exit could have made Americans more receptive to this talk. I do not think that the war would have lasted...

    WWII: What if D-Day didnt succeed?

    The real nightmare would have been a Nazi-Soviet ceasefire. Most would believe this to be impossible, but if Bagration had not been as successful, the chance for a ceasefire existed. The German and Soviets were negotiating prior to the Battle of Kursk, and if the Russian were stopped in '44...

    Running on empty

    Actually, if you say that the war ended the depression, then that is support for an uber-Keynesian position. FDR should have spent more federal money to end the Depression. The real reason is not economic but psychological. Business leaders of the 30's wanted to run the economy the...

    God forbid this ever happen...

    The political parties should have rules in place for this. This happened in Missouri with Mel Carnahan and in Minnesota with Paul Wellstone. In both situations, the party elites used state rules to field a replacement, either "vote for the dead candidate" with the understanding that his wife...

    Random Wal-Mart rant.

    I believe that Walmart is intentionally leaving the stores short of cashiers in order to force people to use the self-checkout. They ultimately want to eliminate the cashiers altogether.

    Upgrade is old CD license checked?

    Lets say the MB is flaky, and you replace the MB with one of the exact same type as the original, but you do the install yourself, because you do not trust the store from which you purchased the computer, or the warranty is not truly being honored , or the warranty is out?

    5 Kids Busted for plagiarizing

    The NASCO SuperCorridor (Trans Texas Corridor) -NAFTA Highway Plan?

    The main reason for this highway is that goods from Asia could bypass the West Coast and move directly into the middle of the US. They are trying to take the advantages that California has in being the main port of entry for trans-Pacific goods and keep them for themselves. Also, since the...
