Every vacuum cleaner I have ever had starts smelling burned after 1 min.
of use. They barely pick up anything and I have to go over that spot 10 times.
In addition I have to clean the rollers EVERY time before vacuuming. What am
I doing wrong?

This happens with all my vacum cleaners, new or used.

I bought a dishwasher Friday and am installing it myself. I bought a dishwasher stainless steel install kit...it included a power cord a water line and the hardware. The power cord is flat and 3 pronged...the cord color is gray and I stripped the ends off the wires. The middle wire is color coded green for the ground but the other two are still gray. I called the company but they wouldn't tell me anything...The plug itself has letters on it Z W and G. The G is the green for ground but which ones are the Z and W. Is the W white and the Z black??????

When I want to see what a particular plant looks like I google the name of it and I look at pictures posted on websites of different nurseries and especially Monrovia , but I still would like better resolution pictures and pictures of the mature thing and not the seedling, if you know what I mean. Anybody know of better sites for pictures of all the plants?

I have a 150mm (6") diameter hole right through the exterior wall of my house - 2 courses of brick with cavity. It was ventilation for a gas fire that has since been removed. What is the best way to fill it?

If there is something already in the bowl such as a plastic beaker or babys bottle it always finds its way directly under the tap therefore soaking you in the process!
Its gotta be a sciency type reason but I dont know why!
Come on you clever peeps.

I was reading an article...on Yahoo actually and it had the meaning of a bunch of flowers. It said Orchid (a belle). Can anyone elaborate on that. What is "a belle"?
Obviously I just had some Orchids mixed w/ Roses sent to someone.
Thanks

My refrigerator started to freeze all my food. We lowered the temperature last night to the lowest setting and this morning our milk was rock solid...everything was. Our water dispenser wasn't working either and no ice has been made. We removed the filter and it's frozen as well. Any suggestions? Thank you so much.

I was thinking about cropping the top branches down atleast 2-3 feet.

We've just moved into a house and want to accessorize the yard some. I've no clue what does well here-not from Colorado at all! Any gardening suggestions on bushes, plants, or flowers that will survive are greatly appreciated. Or of course a weblink to a good site..??
