How do I split a rooftop TV aeriel?

I don't have access to the roof, only to the cable as it runs down the side of my building. Can I cut the cable to get to the wire, intertwine two wires onto it and then run two cables into separate rooms of my house? Can I get an electric shock doing this?

What is this beautiful plant?

I've seen a beautiful plant around college and have no idea what it is (I don't have a garden, but I'd like to find pictures of it to brighten my room and computer.) It has thin stems and, notably, these translucent circular leaves/pods with a silvery sheen. Does anyone know what it might be?

Duct Fans - what's better?

So what's better - inline duct fans or the kind that sit on top of the register? The ducts for my mstr. bdrm. run though the crawl space, up the garage wall, across the garage ceiling and into my room. The garage is drywalled and insulated but by the time the air gets there it's cooled down some. I need something to force the air up there quicker, but will the fans throw the circulation off for the rest of the house?

How can I get rid of a wasp nest?

There is a wasp nest dug underground in my back garden, and i want to know how I can get rid of it. I have bought several things, including a powder for the entrance, but it didnt work. I have also tried blocking up the entrance several times, but to no avail. I am now thinking of pouring petrol, or something flamable down the hole and lighting it. Will this work? Also, since it is winter, will they just die out, or will they hibernate and come back with a vengence? Its beginning to get cold already, but theyre still very active, and very much alive!
