This person is a concrete finisher. I have already bought him a nice watch for going out, but he really needs one for work. What do you recommend for a good, inexpensive (under $100), tough watch for a very rough, dusty job?

What is the best thing to use to clean the glass of my shower screen. The water in my area is "hard water" and has left the glass really streaky and just looks generally dirty. I only fitted the screen last year so I dont want to replace the thing. Is there any strong bleach or chemical that will bring it up like new ?

Hi, I have purchased a new under-construction apartment from a reputed builder in Mumbai, India. We have moved in just about a month ago. We have observed that very fine, hair-line cracks have developed in all the walls. Reportedly, this is heppening in all apartments of the same complex. We asked the builder about it and they responded saying that this is normal for a new construction and happens due to climatic changes. They have asked us to wait for more such cracks to come in next 3-4 months and then they will repair/fill it and do the touch-up. My question is that whether this is normal and whether after the repair this will be alright? It will be great if anyone can throw light on this. Thanx.
