Cleaning & Laundry - July 2006

Is there something I can add to get rid of the brown color? Right now I take them somewhere and wash them but it is a pain. We have a water softener but it isn't working right now.

I just got a used oak desk. It had clear packing tape on the desk surface that when I pulled it off left a sticky white mark. Almost like pulling it off an imitation wood surface? It's like this one.

Question1: How do I clean it off?
Question2: The tape came off the drawers just fine. No marks - does this mean the top of the desk is farmaica ?

A candle was on a table, and it melted super fast and ran off the table onto the carpet.

My room mate is a pig. Heats food without covering it, food splatters and ends up as smelly little dried up splotches all over the walls of the microwave. I know I should just go buy a new one, but as long as I have this roommate, why bother as it would just get nasty again. So I need the best answer on how to get the crud off the walls and the odor out. Please help.

I think it is mineral stains where the water runs and there is a ring where the water sits. I have tried bowl cleaners and a pumice stone any other suggestions?

I am having a hard time cleaning the cobwebs from my textured ceiling without either the paint chipping or the cobwebs just gathering and sticking to it.

My home has a well instead of city water. Whenever I ran a bath, brownish colored flecks come out of my faucet. After looking at the faucet, I noticed that the inside is covered in this redish-brown film. I am assuming that it is from the rust in the water, although I could be wrong. Can anybody tell me how to get rid of it?
Thanks!

I'd love some advice in buying a new electric washer/dryer, am not especially fond of a front-load machine but saw a top-load washer w/ top load dryer with glass lids - kinda neat looking, but has anyone used them? I'd like a decent size machine, but not huge. I also prefer to buy from Lowe's although I'm not afraid to look elsewhere. thanks!!
