How much do you deduct from home sale price for taxes?

If I sell a home I've owned for 5 years, for $1,090,000 and deduct $575,000 to pay off the mortgage, and let's say deduct another 7% for sales fees, leaving me with $438,700 - how much of that goes toward capital gains taxes? Let's say I have a husband - I THINK we get to write off $250K each, so does that mean no 15% capital gains tax or ? This is in CA.

Should I get a Macbook, Macbook air or an Ipad2?

Macbook Air has no CD drive, Ipad 2 isn't a computer its a tablet so comparing a laptop to a tablet doesn't make much sense, so you either want an overpriced laptop with no CD drive, or you want the overpriced Macbook, or you want a tablet I can't make that decision for you.

Best drugstore foundation or powder for sensitive oily skin in humid weather?

Try Nuetrogena Skin Clearing Makeup Foundation even if you dont have pimples it works good or find an oil free foundation or powder. They usually tell somewhere on the product if it's oil free. Also make sure to wash your face with something that would dry up the oil but not dry out your skin. Wash before applying any makeup.

Furniture show room not letting me know about order after paying amount?

I ordered a living room set with one of the local furniture show room. I paid the amount in full about a month back, i have the receipt also. Initially he said he can deliver it in 1-2 weeks. Its almost a month and he dint do it. I asked to let me know at least a expected date so that i can know when it arrives, he keep on saying I will call you when it arrives. I also asked him to cancel my order and refund my money back and can deduct restocking fee. But he says he cant cancel as it is a special order. I don't know what is special about it when asked he says its special. Can anyone suggest me how can i deal with this can i call any authority to complain about him. This is really annoying as they are keeping me in complete blank on whats going on without letting me know when to expect nor refunding my money back.
