Gmail's philosophy is something along the lines of "search not sort". However you can search for your largest emails with something like

Yes, you'll get a certificate that says you completed the course, but you will not get any college credit, and the certificate will specify that you were never actually enrolled in the university. So you can't go around calling yourself a Harvard alumni or anything. But you do get a nice certificate that says you…

You can see the full name if you just turn "Short Name" off in that same menu.

The Last Minute Throw-Together

You know, I can't really disagree here. Sometimes the old solutions are the best - a plain old 3 ring binder and some dividers let you add whatever kind of paper you want and switch to it whenever. They don't even have to be the big chunky binders either - the thin ones fit into a laptop bag just fine.

or get a small 3-ring notebook... they do exist. This is interesting but looks like a pain to re-insert the paper.

I always suggest doing it in reverse, not for the additional interests that can be earned, but because it's easier to complete a challenge like this if you have to put less and less money into savings that if you have to do more and more. I think arranging it so that the biggest deposits don't correspond to the…

I use CDisplay Ex on my Windows 7 machine but it should work fine on a Windows 8 machine. There was a hive five a while back if you want to look at some other ones.

As others have said... make sure you have Windows Update configured to update all Microsoft software, not just Windows... and then run Windows Update over and over (rebooting in between as necessary) until there are no more updates to apply.

You need to run a Windows Update first. Once everything via Windows Update is actually up-to-date, open up the Windows Store and there should be a giant green button that you can click to upgrade to Windows 8.1

Here's what I'm reading here:

An effective apology as far as I'm concerned should include the following:

I feel like this list over-focuses on acknowledgement, and under-focuses on responsive action. In my mind, a truly effective apology also includes:

My Uncle had a @prodigy.net address he had to give up last year when he could no longer use ATT as a provider for internet when he moved.

The boss could just be asking this question because he's busy and would rather just give him a raise rather than sitting through an entire meeting. I would say if a raise is what you'd like, go ahead and say "Well I'd obviously love a raise, but I'd also like to discuss a couple other items for 10-15 minutes." A…

Please make a Gmail desktop browser plugin for Mailbox! It's a fantastic concept but I have to use my phone to snooze. Would love the ability to snooze from the PC/Mac. Love=pay for (for me anyway).

It's also worth simply going to the store and asking a manager. We skipped getting up early and BF rush hour lines just by going to the store the day before Thanksgiving and talking to a manager about their in-store price guarantee. We were interested in a TV they had in stock. He told us that if we bought the TV…

I have always found that almost all of these password managers are not very compatable between cross-platform/storage devices. This is the reason that I have been using KeePassX almost exclusively.
