I prefer the Facebook Fixer (aka FFixer) Greasemonkey script. It does this and a million times more:

They're back up. According to their FB page, they bought extra server bandwidth about five minutes ago and are requesting donations to help cover the costs.

I think the answer is pretty obvious. The algorithm accounts for both positively- and negatively-connoted terms. While lots of people seriously hate the Yankees and Red Sox, lots of people also love them. Therefore, those teams' scores will be buoyed by their wide fanbases.

@mnerd: OK, I can see the logic here (and in everyone else's arguments). I have a fairly simple tax return myself—a few W2s, some medical expenses, and student loans and tutition—but TurboTax's free estimate was well under half of what my accountant got me.

I know that the DIY thing is huge here, but I'm surprised to see how few voters see the value of a professional, dedicated tax accountant. Isn't this about what's the best value? If it costs you $500 to get an extra $501 on your return, it's worth it. In the long term, a tax accountant will net you far more than

@fabrictramp001: Then why don't you just hire a tax accountant? It'll be faster, easier, and you'll probably wind up with a much bigger tax return that will dwarf the cost of the professional preparation.

I don't know why you'd use anything other than a bona fide tax accountant. Nobody else is going to really maximize your deduction, especially not something as formulaic as TurboTax.

VOTE: A tax accountant. Good tax accountants don't follow the letter of the law like CPAs tend to and will be able to (legally) bend the rules to (legally) maximize your deduction. I don't know why you'd use anything else.

Indoor allergies are a year-round problem for many people (including me). Unless you want to go through some pretty major lifestyle changes, the only way to deal with them is medication and/or innoculation.

I learned about this technique in a defensive driving course five years ago and have been using it ever since. It's perfect: Passing cars will start in my rearview mirror, move from there to my sideview mirror, and move from there to within view in the window. I hardly ever have to turn around.

I can't believe you wasted a NSFW tag on Hector Camacho's bare ass. Given the thumbnail, I clicked with EXPECTATIONS, dammit!

I have extremely sensitive hearing and can hear things that most people wouldn't, both in pitch and volume. As a result, I tend to get a lot more aural input than most people do. In noisy environments like parties or bars, I have to cup a hand around one ear and point it at the person I'm talking to, keep my eyes

Nice sentiment, but I'm not sure how much it holds water. Time is money and lots of people are unemployed, including me. I literally cannot afford the frivolities of side projects when I don't know where my next rent check is coming from. I need to stay on my set path and solidify my finances.

@Civil Negligence: Hey, be reasonable. It's Congress that doesn't want to fund the new jobs bill.

Beautiful, elegant little hack. I keep forgetting to check my Waves, and this will keep me on the ball. Thank you yet again, LH.

I usually have the most trouble explaining things with girls who aren't tech-savvy. They're all very, very smart, just not exactly computer geeks. In those cases, I generally find that being straightforward is best. If the person you're dealing with can handle it, a quick explanation—a literal one—will set them

I'm sure others have noted how many times LH has covered this. But what they don't tell you: Never serve good vodka to the girls you're friends with from college. They hate it and only like the cheap stuff they're used to. #drinking
