I am using a antique french provencial dresser for the base of a vessel sink in my bath. What type of of product would be good for waterproofing, scratch resistant, and will not change the color of the wood? I live in Portland, Oregon so if you know of dealer that would be great too.
Thanks!

We're going to be moving this week and I wanted to get some free boxes to use. The last time we moved I was able to get a few from the liquor store which were good for glasses and not much else. I had a hard time finding boxes from like the grocery store and such. Any ideas on who might be willing to give up boxes?

That is, before they bite. We have a beautiful lanai and are troubled by mosquitos. We have burned citronella products with mixed success. We are thinking about investing in an electric bug zapper of some kind. Does anyone have any thoughts about which kind is best or even if they work? or what actually does work? Thanks a lot.

My back yard has about a dozen wild cats living in it. The previous renters used to feed them and I don't know how to get rid of them. I've obviously not fed them, but they're still here. I've heard that filling old milk bottles with water and placing them around the yard will help, but I'm skeptical. Any suggestions would be very appreciated. I want to get rid of them before they breed!

I am planning to build a house, and I am wondering about how long will it take.
It will probably be around a 3,500 to 4,000 sq ft colonial.

A dear friend of mine (or rather, a friend who has recently crossed the line to lover, but we are NOT a couple) has eyes for only one blossom. And that would be the serene beauty of the lotus.
However, my lover and I are two birds of the same, off-beat feather. We have a taste for the Dark and Gothic. As such, he has always wanted to see a black lotus.
I decided that I want to grow him a lotus now. But I need to ask, how on earth can I properly dye one black?

We had the alarm fitted around 18 years ago, (can't find a model No) and i need to disconnect it from the mains. As it has anti- tamper features, it will ring while i disconnect the main supply and remove the battery from the main unit, but my fear is that the external bell will continue to ring, and i don't have access to a ladder, is the external bell likely to have a seperate battery or not?

I saw one in a catalogue and said "acts as natural sunlight". Can I grow corn? A big crop of corn if I get enough of these in greenhouse.

I know corn with grow in greenhouse with sun in a big pot so don't tell me I need ground.

If I get fifty of these lights can I grow corn fast as sun or will growth be slower.

Or do I need this many. Could I use fewer?

is $214 a reasonable monthly bill? I don't think so. I run the heat at about 75 at night and turn it down to 65 during the day. I used to turn it off for the day, but the heating bill didn't seem much lower. The windows seem OK. And we have a a sliding patio door, but I rarely go out there, esp. in the winter. Can I cover this door somehow? What else can I do to save money?

My Mother in Law's fridge just died and she needs to buy a new one. We have no idea what to get as far as brand, etc. She is going to be selling her condo in a couple of years so would like something to help with the resale (if the fridge matters). She likes the fridge and freezer side by side vs freezer at the top.

Thanks
