Is Texas auto registration just the stickers in the window or also a registration paper?
Q. We've moved from Texas to Oklahoma, and lost the registration to our truck.(2005 ford F150) They won't register it here without the registration, and Texas won't print a duplicate because it's expired, (about 18 months ago). We can't renew it in Texas, because we have to do it in person, and that's not an option. What the HECK are we supposed to do? Is the window registration sticker the same as having the registration on paper? Also, we don't have the title because it's a lien. Texas doesn't release the title until the lien is paid.

A. You don't have a whole lot of choices. Option 1. Park it until it's paid for, and you have the title, then get it transferred to Oklahoma and registered. Option 2. Go to the closest court house in Texas and pay for your past due registration, bringing it up to date. No, the sticker is not the same as the paper registration card. Added: Also don't drive it with expired registration, or you are likely to get it impounded, adding to your costs and problems.

How does Texas Tech engineering school rank among others?
Q. I plan on obtaining my degree in engineering, and mostly i have heard people tell me to go to texas tech. Is that a good school, what are some other good ones, especially in texas.
Asked by Steffan - Mon Oct 19 02:34:47 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Depends on what type of engineering you plan to study and where you hope to live once you graduate and get employment. Texas Tech is great for petroleum engineering if you are going to live and work in Texas, but Colorado School of Mines or New Mexico would be better (especially if you live outside Texas). MIT would be much better for mechanical engineering, but Polytech is better for civil/structural. Below is a website that compares engineering schools by post-grad pay.

How can you become a resident of Texas in order to pay in-state tuition?
Q. I know many schools want you to live in Texas for at least 12-months, how can you prove you've lived in Texas for 12 months? What if you lived in texas for 3 months before getting a local driver's license, do schools only accept the time after you go the license or is there a way to show you've already lived in Texas before the license was recieved.

A. Show the school your lease with the date it was signed. They have to accept it as proof of date of residency. If lease is not in your name, show them mail addressed to you, postmarked from date of residency...mail like credit card bills, utility bills, car loan, etc.

Asked by Paul B - Wed Aug 12 19:54:55 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The only way to be certain is to ask the school you're applying to what their rules are. In my experience, you have to live in the state for one year, and you can't be dependent on parents who live out-of-state. If you're under 23 or 24 (I forget which), they'll consider you a dependent. I would call the admissions office and ask for a detailed explanation of the rules and what they require from you in order to get in-state tuition. BTW, also depending on the school, certain scholarships or on-campus jobs may entitle you to in-state or otherwise reduced tuition and fees. Ask if there are any opportunities to reduce the cost of tuition at your school.

Is Texas homestead exemption based on who lives at home or who owns it?
Q. Texas has a $15,000 homestead exemption is a person claims that home as their personal residence. Is it based on who owns the home, who lives there, or who paid for the home? Say its a $100,000 home and it is purchased by a daughter and her grandmother. The daughter contributes $1 and the grandmother contributes $99,999 and the purchase it together for $100,000. They are both listed as joint owners of the home. The grandmother lives outside of Texas. Is this possible to qualify for the Texas Homestead exemption?
Asked by breadbox - Fri Mar 28 14:19:10 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In Michigan, it doesn't matter how much each person contributes - if two names are on the deed, one person can claim the exemption. For example, Mr. Jones helps his son purchase a house so Mr. Jones and Mr. Jones Jr. are on the deed. Mr. Jones Jr. lives there and files the Principal Residence Exemption (that is what it is called here) in his name. He is entitled to the entire exemption, not just half. All states are different and you should check into the state law regarding the Homestead Exemption in Texas. As far as the percentage of ownership, is that someplace in writing that the granddaughter owns less than 1%? According to what I can see about the TX homestead law, you will have to put down what percentage each person owns, but… [cont.]

A. The male has tibial hooks after molting. Males are a long-legged spindly spider with tan carapace, brown abdomen, and long black fuzzy legs. Females bodies are more stocky with thicker legs. Also not all tarantulas have mating hooks. These are more common in new world species. These are truly great spiders, and are very docile. Good luck with your new pet.

Asked by kayline - Sun May 11 23:17:23 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. In every state except Michigan the term "No-Fault" refers only to how and who pays the medical of an injured person. It means that no matter who is at-fault your own insurance company pays your medical bills. Who pays for car damages in MN are still based on negligence. The accident will be handled under the laws of MN as that is where the accident happened. So if the other driver is at-fault you will get paid for your car damages by their insurance company. In MN the have comparative negligence laws so depending on the accident facts you might not be owed 100% of your damages. If you contributed 15% of the negligence to the accident, the amount you can collect is reduced by that 15%. Good Luck

Grape vines fruit only on old stems, so keep this in mind when you prune.Keeping the new growth for the next years fruit. In the fall...depending on your climate you will want to pull back on the water, letting them be on the dry-side. This will cause the sugars to develope in the grapes ..producing a very nice and sweet grape. There are little pests that bother grapes, you need to watch out for bores when you prune.
