I have reel-to-reel audio tapes from the 60s that still play on my tape deck from the 70s. I have digital backups, but I don't know if they will last the same 40-50 years that most of the original analog tapes have. My most recent "recovery" was a transfer to digital form about four years ago.
Some of the tapes have degraded and are not recoverable as the layer from one winding of tape has stuck to the adjacent winding.
Income tax is on income, not capital gains. He wouldn't have been paying income tax on his share sale anyway.
Don't try not paying tax on capital gains on your federal income tax return. There are lots of forms of income other than earned income: capital gains, interest, dividends, rents, etc. Unearned income is still income.

At my bank, I key in my box number and then place my right hand on a pad with pins for finger alignment. If I am me and using my right hand, the door to the vault opens without a teller required.
The place where you work probably doesn't want to hire someone to check employees in and out after verifying their identities. A hand or finger scan is probably safer from their point of view (no forged ids) and easier on you (just show up).
How do you address the social aspects of school? A valuable part of being in school was learning how to interact with new people, larger groups, and authority respectfully and responsibly. Its unfortunate, but part of being a productive adult is working with difficult strangers or at least working around them.
True. My daughter is a dentist. She has told me that she has a good chance of identifying the home schooled kids by their behavior in her office. They have a sense of unease about them in the office that kids who go to regular schools don't.
(She usually asks children about school while they are in the chair as part of the make-them-feel-comfortable chit-chat.)
Why a large, sparsely populated country of ~300 million people would decide to do the switch-over all at once I can't figure out. Maybe THAT'S the easier way and the UK is doing it awkwardly, but it just doesn't seem like that to me.
The switch over to digital was months ago for most stations in most markets. The only thing that happened on Friday was that the analog transmitters were turned off. I don't know of any channel that turned on its digital transmitter for the first time Friday. The converter boxes worked last week, and they still work now. For those stations who kept broadcasting digital on the same channels as they did last week, nothing changed (digitally). However, I have lost several channels that moved on Friday from their previous UHF frequencies to VHF frequencies.
I had most of the channels working on both analog and digital before the change. But now, I lost them due to VHF and DB2 bowtie antenna. Both rabbit ears and bowtie separately can't get all stations like KTTV 11, etc. Funny how all transmitters are in one location but yet I have to rotate, tilt, etc. my Terk rabbit ears. I never had to do that with my DB2 antenna before the 12th.
Your digital KTTV was on UHF channel 65; it is now on VHF channel 11. I have lost mine as well. The DB2 is great for all the UHF channels, but not so good for the VHF.
And I think they're banking on things like if you are married and one of you drives and one rides the train or bus, you can cut down to one vehicle maybe:
From the press release:
"The savings assume a household gives up one car."
In California, the sales tax is a tax on the seller. The seller has the option of listing the sales tax as a separate item on the bill presented to the buyer, but is not obliged to. Even if the seller does not list the sales tax separately, the seller is obligated to pay the sales tax. When you buy popcorn in a movie theater for $5.50, the tax is not listed separately, but the theater pays the tax to the state. If you buy from out-of-state, you are required to pay a use tax, which coincidentally is equal to the sales tax.
This law would require sellers in other states to collect the use tax and transmit it to the state. It does not impose a new tax, but acts like withholding from your paycheck, making sure you don't forget to pay your use tax. 8=)

I'd like to know when Slashdot is going to fix their scripts so that when folks post quotes, it doesn't post like someone with one of those cheap fake Italian accents.
I'd like to know when posters are going to start previewing their posts and removing all the crap that Slashdot puts into pasted quotes. Oh, that's right, this is Slashdot. Never mind.
The amplifier in my stereo system doesn't have a volume control. To control the volume, I have to attach a pre-amp. How is this DRM related?
If you go to the verizon high speed internet site, you will see that verizon offers customized portals:
"Kick-start your High Speed Internet experience with a Verizon version of one of the top Internet portals. During your Verizon High Speed Internet installation, choose Verizon Yahoo!, Verizon with AOL ®, or Verizon with Windows LiveTM along with a new Verizon email address."
These are not the original Yahoo, AOL, and Windows Live, but special Verizon versions. When you lose access to Verizon, you lose access to the special Verizon versions of Yahoo, AOL, and Windows Live.
