I am looking for a clear and sturdy (and preferably relatively inexpensive) building material for a stage prop. I am trying to imitate glass or plastic block (just can't afford it) so clear is a must! It will be placed in a wooden frame and must be 54" x 54" or combined to get said dimensions. It must be able to be drilled or somehow have 4 wooden shadow boxes weighing apx 3 pounds each on it and not need too much back support so it can be backlit. Basically.... I am reconstructing the control pannel as seen in The Rocky Horror Picture Show... I've considered plexiglass, polycarbonate, twinwall polycarbonate, Solexx... I really like the Twinwall, but there isn't a retailer close (I'm in Ohio) and definently can't afford to ship it here at min $250. Ideas??

I have been growing my own lettuce (I'm a first time gardener) in my backyard, and it looks awesome now and ready to eat. But it's taken about 2 months or so to get it to be this way, and I don't want to just eat it all and then have to replant lettuce seeds and wait another 2 months till I can eat some more.

Can I just cut off certain leaves without killing the plant? I know that plants need their leaves so that they can absorb the sunlight for photosynthesis, but how much of it does it need? Can I cut most of the leaves off?

Thanks!

As said in the title, my family and I have found a series of strange little bugs around the house. We first saw one on a pineapple around June 21 and have seen 4-7 of them subsequently around the house in various areas.

The bugs seem to be about 1 inch in length, possessing a 2-prong tail that is reminiscent of a scorpion, two rather long antennae and orangish black legs. They are quick little buggers who love to crawl about. (Non fliers.)

I've checked online and have seen nothing like it yet, but I'm not really that good at searching for insects it seems.

Does anyone have an idea what kind of bug this may be? Any help would be great!!

My parents would like to discard a bunch of boxes containing sensitive documents. They're worried about someone getting a hold of their Social Security numbers from some of these documents. Instead of them having to go through box after box, putting one piece of paper at a time in the shredder, how can we quickly, effectively, efficiently, and inexpensively discard these documents in one fell swoop? Any ideas- even if they sound a bit strange- are appreciated, as long as the information on these documents will be rendered useless in an incredibly efficient manner as possible. I'm just trying to help my parents and I don't want them to have to go through the misery of shredding a good percentage of these documents. Please help!

Thanks!

We cannot find a supplier for this light; the casing has 2 names on it - American Standard and Hayward. We have ordered 2 different lights from our local pool supply store and neither fit. Our house was built on 1964 and we think the pool was put in sometime in the 70's; this size light seems to be outdated, but I figure someone still has to make them. I do not want to have to replace with a new size. Help!!!

its a tube with coloured balls floating inside which tell the time

2007-07-11 09:58:17 · 7 answers · asked by Anonymous

I don't know WHAT these are ... the are SMALL (smaller than a flea - that's the only comparison I can think of.) And they are mostly dark colored - but there were a few whitish ones. They don't seem to be on the plant, so I'm pretty sure they aren't aphids. (The plant is in a pot and indoors if that makes a difference.)

ANY idea what these might be? How can I get rid of them?

Help?
