Home & Garden - 10 February 2007

Last year ordered through a magazine and three dead tiny plants arrived - hard won refund. Supposedly grows to 8' in a few months and produces 60lbs of tomatoes per plant.
Still seeing them advertised on Smart Market fliers, etc. Hmmmm

Please share any knowledge of them or your tomato growing tips?

I bought a dreamcast on ebay that unfortunately came with a distasteful smell of smoke. I was wondering if keeping it outside could air it out? Problem is its like 0 degrees so i was wondering if its bad for systems in that weather. I know its bad for very hot weather but im not sure with the cold. Thanks.

Anybody know how to wash clothes, especially sweatshirts without shrinking them? Everything I've tried doesn't seem to work. Also do polyester clothes shrink less than cotton?

Sorry there's no picture so I'll try to decribe it as best I can.

Looks pretty much like an ordinary brass lamp socket.
Markings:
EDISON-PATENTS
200 V. 50 C.P. (candle power)

It has a turned wood handle, about 4 inches long coming out of the bottom of the socket(so it can be held like a flashlight) and has a cloth covered cord going through the center of the handle.
The socket, instead of having a cardboard insulator on the bottom, is lined with mica with the base contact for the bulb coming out of a hole in the side of the socket.
The switch on the side of the socket is very large and marked with 'BRYANT'

The plug, also very large and round, is made of ceramic and is \ marked 'PAULDING' - 3 A. 250 V. and the two prongs on the plug, about and inch apart, are pretty normal looking except for the fact that they both bend at a right angle in the same direction

I couldn't find anything like this on Ebay or any other site so I am eager to solve this mystery!

i have wiped most of it up with towels and am soaking them in cold water to get most of the soap out, but what about the rest on the floor? Any ideas for easy clean up? I have a lot of white shop towels on hand.

Normally the heating is fine; the timer turns it on and off successfully and the thermostat works. However sometimes the heating stays on even though the timer (which appears to be working - lights go off) switches off and promptly goes red hot and the thermostat no longer works either. Any ideas?

Do you know any way to fix this, I had to put a chair behind my door last night and well,its pretty sad.

I am thinking of buying a ranch house which has an unattached 1 car garage basically taking up a big chunk of backyard. There is plenty of room on the side of the house for the garage. What would be involved in moving the garage forward closer to the street, costs and such. Has anyone accomplished anything like this? How? What would it cost to demolish the garage and rebuild one on the side of the house?

thanks
I assume the garage is on a concrete slab? If I demolish the
