In the last week, I've replaced light bulbs for 6 fixtures in my house. In one fixture, 2 replacement bulbs blew out shortly after I replaced it.

In addition, my gas oven (with electronic ignition, no pilot) is no longer working. The clock is on, the oven light turns on, but there is no heat, no gas smell).

Are these two things related?

I realize that the one fixture that blew 3 bulbs could be going bad, but I find it strange that this all happened at once. I find it hard to believe that this is coincidence.

Any help?

We steam cleaned our carpet a few months back, and didn't realize it at the time, but our carpet machine was malfunctioning, and lost it's suction. The next day, we realized that the carpet was still pretty damp, and because it took so long to dry, it started smelling like mildew. Kinda like when laundry sits in the wash for too long. Well after a couple of weeks, the smell finally disappeared, but then my husband cleaned the carpet again yesterday, and today I am starting to notice that same smell again! He rented a professional machine this time, so I don't know what's causing this smell to come back again. The carpet is less than two years old, and in very good condition. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

My old bathtub is almost impossible to get clean. I have used Clorox, Lysol, Dow, Comet, you name it, and some scum just does NOT come off. I can't afford to re-glaze or replace. How can i get my tub sparkling clean?

My self-cleaning oven spews smoke up in one little area and the plastic on that part of the stove is now yellow from the smoke. We've tried soft scrub, dish soap, baking soda...any ideas?
