			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://CouponBuzz.com" target="_blank">CouponBuzz.com</a> announced a new 20% off H&#038;R Block Coupon code for H&#038;R Block At Home downloadable tax preparation software. The coupon code is featured on their <a href="http://couponbuzz.com/handr-block-coupons.html" target="_blank">recently launched webpage</a> dedicated to H&#038;R Block coupons and coupon codes.</p>
<p>H&#038;R Block At Home tax preparation software is one of the most commonly used tax tools available.</p>
<p>“Just being able to claim one more deduction that you didn’t know about could mean the difference of hundreds of dollars more in your pocket,” said Justin Bowen, CEO of CouponBuzz.com. </p>
<p>40% of American taxpayers do their own taxes each year. If a taxpayer underpays the federal government, it is highly likely that they are going to hear about it. But if a taxpayer overpays the federal government, well, Uncle Sam isn’t going to track them down and offer it back.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Compared to anything you&rsquo;ll see coming from the BBC or CNN, this is admittedly a pretty minor piece of news.&nbsp; Yet it&rsquo;s nonetheless nice to hear that Facebook plans to drop the word &ldquo;is&rdquo; from its users&rsquo; status updates.</p>
<p><span id="more-42086"></span> I logged onto Facebook to grab an example of the bad grammar that has resulted from the mandatory inclusion of &ldquo;is,&rdquo; and as it turns out, most of my friends have done a good job of adapting to the word&rsquo;s presence.&nbsp; So, just to make up an example, a person might get stuck saying &ldquo;Joe is didn&rsquo;t like the movie.&rdquo;</p>
<p><center><img border="0" align="center" src="http://images.ientrymail.com/webpronews/article_pics/sm_body/allfacebook.jpg" alt="www.allfacebook.com" title="www.allfacebook.com" /></center><br />
&ldquo;Joe didn&rsquo;t like the movie&rdquo; will soon become an option, though, according to <a href="http://www.allfacebook.com/2007/11/facebook-removing-is-from-status-updates/" title="&quot;Facebook Removing 'Is' From Status Updates?&quot;">Nick O&rsquo;Neill</a>.&nbsp; Note that the third person mode of speech has stuck around &#8211; Joe can&rsquo;t yet write &ldquo;I didn&rsquo;t like the movie&rdquo; &#8211; but Facebook may have pleased a lot of people with this one small adjustment.</p>
<p>Heck, the BBC and CNN might even want to take note; at the moment, a <a href="http://utk.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2590361215" title="&quot;Petition to Get Rid of 'is' from Facebook Status Update!&quot;">group</a> called &ldquo;Petition to Get Rid of &lsquo;is&rsquo; from Facebook Status Update!&rdquo; has exactly 164,069 members, and I&rsquo;ve seen groups protesting genocide and such things with much smaller tallies.</p>
<p>Although Facebook may still do very odd and <a title="Facebook's Memory May Be Too Good" href="http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2007/11/19/facebooks-memory-may-be-too-good">possibly illegal</a> things with users&rsquo; data, at least the social network is paying some attention to proper grammar.</p>
