We are short people so for 8 weeks we have been working 8 hour days 7 days a week with no breaks for lunch or anything else. Are there any restrictions on this? I live in Missouri.

Ok so I live in a state that has declined the expanded medicaid. Which means I get neither medicaid or any assistance with federal marketplace at my income. I am going to fall $2000 shy of the minimum necessary. I am not one to break laws or take a hand out, my wifes health is very bad after a messed up c - section that 3 surgeries since and she still isn't able to stand or lift.

I do have a plan through my job but it doesn't qualify as insurance under the affordable care act. I pay $3200 a year for $4650 max paid out. I am left with $115 after a doctor visit, they pay a max of $75 towards ER visit.

So you can understand why I want decent coverage. To get a private plan will cost me over $600 per month which isn't possible on our income.

TL:DR ----- Would it be wrong to add income I don't have to qualify for a federal marketplace plan? (Yes I know I will pay more tax but small price to pay so I don't go bankrupt on medical bills)

I am wondering if my joint tax refund can be taken by my wife's student loans that are in default. Last year my wife had serious medical issues that are only now being resolved, she hasn't worked in a year. We lost everything over the last year, our only hope was our refund this year. She owes like $7,000 which is all of our refund and some. Is there any hope they won't take them or anything we can do this late in the game?

Then let me tell you

I don't know if you saw that great deal on $139.99 e8400's, well they just pulled them all. It was scheduled to be shipped today, its not, they pulled it off the truck this morning due to an "error" but you can spend an extra $70 and get a q6600....bait and switch.

There now telling me that I can just pay an extra $70 and have a q6600 their current cheapest cpu. BAIT and SWITCH.

Ok I was at our local sams club and my wife picked up a thing of 4 plants: Heritage Red Raspberry, Royalty Raspberry, Bluecrop blueberry, arapaho thornless blackberry; plants. We live very close to Kansas City, Missouri. What I am wondering is when do we plant these? They say they are 2 year plants, and have a tiny bit of green stem and a few leaves on a few of them. I know there is more frost, so what should I do with them? Any help is greatly appreciated, I know nothing about berries.

I have a light bulb that the glass came out of when it burned out. The glass came out without breaking at all. The bulb base is shorter than the fixture. The fixture is on the ceiling over the stairs and about 15-18 feet up. Its a standard home socket used in the USA for the last 50 years+. I tried using a potato on a pole, but not even close. Is there anything that can screw into that or am I stuck attempting a ladder, because the ladder cannot rest near enough I will have to stretch and risk life and limb to change it. I also have terrible balance.

Basically I got my wife a new awesome laptop and I am going to take hers and try to make it the best it can be.

First of all I know this isn't a speed demon, nor am I expecting that. I only intend to use this for games like guild wars, warcraft3, starcraft, diablo 2. I might also use it for starcraft 2 but that would be it.

So is it worth messing with at all?(I can't afford another laptop for a few years and do have a good desktop)

My thoughts:

Upgrade to a 80gb 7200rpm hd

Upgrade to 1gb of 333mhz ram(hp told me that it won't boot if I use 400mhz is that true?)

I found a copper heatsink that I am going to attach to the graphics card itself to help it out.

I intend to keep the hd very clean, run xp pro, and just the programs I need.

Any other suggestions?

I have a 93 cavalier with a 3 speed automatic. I am wondering if all 3 speed automatics from 88-2001(when they dropped the 3speed auto) are compatible.

Basically on the sellers disclosure she stated the oven worked, it doesn't, we replaced it. She stated the Furnace was 3 years old, there is a plate on it that states it is 20 years old. She stated the water heater was 4 years old, on the plate it says 21 years old.

We did NOT get an inspection, yes I know thats bad, first house live and learn, but whats done is done.

We can prove that she lied, and inspection or not you cannot lie on a legal document. So should we persue this, or do you think it will not be worth our time? Any other advice?

Ok I have an emachines(less than 2 years old) its an amd athlon 64 if it matters. I had to do a windows recovery, and used emachines built in thing to do it. I had it do the backup files one...which I can see now in the hard drive. My question is how do I restore all those files to my computer so its a least a little bit closer to where it was before I did the recovery?

Ok I have a 300W power supply in my computer, I am running dvd-rw, memory card reader, 2xIDE hard drives, a msi ms-7145 micro atx board, and factory fans. I am getting a bfg GeForce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card, and it says it suggests a 350W power supply will mine be able to handle this or do I need to upgrade to more power? If it matters the most intense game I play is Guild wars....no fps games.

I have a question, my wife's laptop has 1.1 usb connections. I want to know if I add a pcmcia card with usb 2.0 will the computer actually be able to use the data rate of 2.0 or will the motherboard/pcmcia connector allow the data rate?
