In California, it's every 5 years. Before 60, you can do it by mail for 1 or 2 renewals, until they want you to get a new picture. Senior ID is good for 10 years. |

I'm not a "senior" by most US government standards. Yet my South Carolina drivers license (issued in 2010) doesn't expire until 2020. And yes, they want you to get a new picture. When I lived in Tennessee I could renew online... but at some point they definitely would have said nope, you need to come in. Unless you're dead, your appearance tends to change as you get older.

It just changed recently I guess. We can also do it by mail but I have to remember to take the eye doctor portion to be filled out because I have to wear glasses to drive, bad distance vision. -- ღ.¸¸.œ«*¨`*œ¶ Cheryl |

Wow, some of you guys live in great places for DLs....in Iowa, after the age of 72, we have to show up for the eye test every two years. One would think a RX type note from an ophthalmologist would suffice, but no, doesn't work like that. Dammit. It is really annoying. N. |

Gosh I must be eh? LOL I can assure you we have never renewed ours every 10 year so we must be very special. Especially for the expert on UK law .... Squertz!! "Though the photocard needs to be renewed every 10 years, in general, driving licences are valid until you're 70, after which it needs renewing every three years. If you only need to update your address or name, or you're over 70 and you're just renewing it, this is free." I didn't even get a photocard until after I had cataract surgery and himself not until his paper licence was falling to piece, which was relatively recently. -- http://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/shop/ |

Do you have to provide a new photo each time? We do - I get a letter telling me it's up for renewal in a couple of months and I simply go in, stand by the counter, camera behind the clerk takes the pic. Go back to my seat and a few minutes later there it is, laminated, etc. It's the most useful piece of ID here (mainly because of the photo) has one's address and also a box which is checked if you wish to be an organ donor in the event. |

Do you have to provide a new photo each time? That is part of the renewal process. You take an eye test, get your picture taken and off you go. Under certain circumstances you might have to take a written test or a driven test. (Moving to another state for instance) I remember taking my driving portion of the test in Minnesota in a blizzard. Snow was piled high by the plows and the course was indicated by orange flags posted on tops of mountains of snow. I passed. Janet US |

Von's has 'ribeye roast', bone in, for $5.88 a pound. Ralph's, $6.77. Smart & Final, $5.69. In the recent past, it would have been under $5, and even a bit under $4 if I was lucky. |

I haven't seen rib roasts at $5/lb for 20 years.... actually beef prices are rather low all of a sudden so USDA Choice rib roasts are at about $8/lb. Of course the dwarf will be right along claiming rib roasts are $4/lb, but we all know he eats from his food bank so he pays ZERO for most groceries... he'll likely be dining on glommed Chef Boyardee for the holidays, ALONE! The dwarf doesn't even have pet, no pet would want to live with the dwarf... maybe a Texass scorpion |

As far as I can tell, Safeway isn't selling them at give away prices this year. Bone in was $5.99 lb a couple of weeks ago - this week, it's regular price. So, we paid $15 lb at Costco for (prime, not choice) bone-in Prime Rib today. -- sf |

I'm usually the one that trumpets Winco Christmas standing rib roast prices here, but I'm starting to fade. Here's a "select or higher" label standing rib roast that I bought Monday and have just salted and scored. Luckily, the label is visible, since I just split the package open to salt and score the meat. I rewrapped tonight with some cling wrap. I could have had prime for two bucks a pound more. The label is barely visible and I'm hoping that people can read it. <http://tinypic.com/r/2gyb04o/9>. I saw the salting the fat cap bit on "Cook's Country" last week and thought I'd try it. Go Winco! leo |

I'd call that Not Graded. I don't salt beef until after it's cooked, with salt in all those slits down into the flesh the salt will suck that beef dry, even while sitting in the fridge. I'd rinse off the salt, dry it well with paper towels, rub it with olive oil and a good amount of coarse ground black pepper. Even when a fresh ham is scored you need to be careful to only score the fat, not into the flesh. You might want to baste that roast with olive oil while it cooks. |
