Bei meiner vohergehenden Frage habe ich gelernt, dass es nicht egal ist, wierum ich einen Dimmer anschliesse. Nun interessiert mich, was GENAU passiert, wenn ich ihn falschrum anschliesse.

Okay. A little about me. My name is Cavilynn AKA Cavy. I have a decent sized room maybe I don't know 14 by 12. That would seem right. Well, it was my brother's room and it still has puke green wallpaper. EW. He bought royal blue paint, not the greatest but okay. I was thinking of doing blue, emerald green, and sunflower yellow. Blue on the walls of course and present in my lamp. I have multiple decor that has the grren and yellow. Also, I have a light green mushroom chair I'd like to use. I'm not all match this and that this second. My bed it white and is the kind with the drawers underneath. My stand is partially stained cherry, but will be painted. I have a white "thing" that is used for storage that could use paint. Also, a big entertainment center that's black, a small storage thing that's black with clear plastic drawers, and A small wood table that can be painted. What should I paint the white thing, stand, and table. I want it to look nice. Mainly, the room needs to be versital.

I have a G E XL44 gas oven. Recently it has not been able to reach heat of 400 degrees, it barely reaches 300. Every thing else is functioning fine. I took out the bottom today, set it to 400 degrees and when i opened the door to check on it, the flame just went out. It seems to function only when it wants to. Any suggestions?

It's time to harvest the turnips but my tractor is broken... I think it's either the clutch or the self-detonation button.

How well does gorilla glue work on concrete walls? I want to attach a curtain rod and I know drilling a hole up there will be a pain. I have a huge window and my tv directly under the curtain. Will the gorilla glue hold it up? I dont want to replace the tv if the rod falls.

A day ago I was trying to mow my yard and I first made sure that it had sufficient oil and gasoline. I primed it up and when I pulled on the cord it sparked for a second and I mowed about a foot of grass and it died. I tried to start it up again but it just made a really loud pop and it died again. Now every time I try to start it you it won't spark and start. I've just changed the spark plug in it and still the same results.

What could be wrong with it?

One bedroom in our house is always hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It is on the northeast corner of the house on the second level, and it has one wall of windows which makes it susceptible to outside temps. Plus, it has two forced air vents for heat and A/C, and they are located on the ceiling next to the window, and nothing ever seems to be coming out of these vents. You can feel a little air coming out but it doesn't seem to affect the temp of the room very much. There is a celing fan, and I think it makes the room warmer in summer from the energy burn, and cooler in the winter from the air circulation. Any suggestions? (This is our nursery so we want to fix the problem)
