I wanna know if it is possible to make a stain-killer for Chocolate Ice Cream and Black smudges (tried a stain-killer on a white shirt w/ black stripes and black smudged on white).

I called a company to come out and check my furnace in a home that I am renting to a young man. Once there, they told the renter that it may possibly be leaking carbon monoxide so they told the renter that they would be willing to finance a new furnace because the old one had to go. He said yes and explained that he was not the homeowner but they went ahead and financed him with the gas company and went ahead and put in a new furnace. The next day, they told him the gas company could not approve it because he was not the owner of the home and that the owner would have to finance the furnace, but I am not willing to do that when they should have gotten my permission in the first place. They are wanting him to now pay cash(or credit cards) for the unit but he does not have that kind of money and is willing to pay installments of $50/month which he was apprvd for. Maybe they should come get theirs and bring the old back, but I know it is damaged. What can i/he do?

Is anyone else bothered by the bright outside lights people use. i can understand using outside lights when people are coming home but leaving them on all night and shining through my windows is so annoying. I like to be able to see the stars but all I can see is the razor sharp outside lights. Also it is depressing to see an orange sky caused by all the neon lights from shopping centers. Why must they light up the sky too. Even the snow looks orange. If you left your lights on all night would you even be aware of it? Would you be angry if someone asked you to shade them or point the light down or better yet turn them off around 8 or 9 o'clock PM.

how the heck do I get it out without leaving a stain?

I was messing with one of my candles (I know, leave well enough alone) and I got wax all on my hand and down my shirt. What would be the best way of getting it out of my shirt?

I live in a 7-story small condo bldg in downtown SF and have generic rabbit-ear antennas that aren't worth squat! Where should I go to purchase a workable replacement? Anything I can do and/or attach to what I have now to even slightly improve reception. I get 3-4 channels almost clear, every else with snow. Help!

I purchased 3.5 inch diameter Diamond cutting wheels for mounting in a drill press.

The Center hole in the disks is 11.2 mm.

Where can I buy an arbor/mandrel to mount one of these disks in a drill press?

Need help with wall color for north facing den that gets very little natural light. Our entry way has dark green slate floor and blue walls. The living room has mauve walls and light gray carpet and the dining room has one blue wall and three mauve colored walls with the same light gray carpet. The entry way, living room and dining room open into our dark den. The den has wood floors and a white ceiling with wood beams. The fireplace is on the north wall and has a wood mantle. What would be a good color to paint the walls to make the den more appealing and blend in with the rest of the rooms?

I have wanted a Dyson Animal for a long time and now I'm just going to do it, swallow the pride on the price and get one. I think.........

Now I'm wondering how the Dyson compares to the Bissell Healthy Home. Which one would be better for a home with 3 kids, a husband, 2 cats that shed like mad, and a golden retriever/saint bernard mix dog? Pet hair and allergens is a BIG concern, which is why I'm wanting the Animal but does anyone know if the Bissell is just as good or better? Durability? Reliability?

Or for that matter, anyone own the Animal? Can you tell me what you think? Thanks!!
