In in Canada here, and would like to get a loan for 100 to 200K for either buying a house, or if not that than for investing in GIC's or something (it provides tax benefits). I'll be switching jobs soon, so I'd like to get the pre-approval before I move jobs in mid January. Any tips? I won't be buying a house right away but I don't want the job switch to scare off lenders.Thanks

I have had the X10 system almost since it was invented and I'm concerned about not being able to dim these new bulbs, or turn them on and off for that matter, using the X10 modules. I often dim lights while watching television . Furthermore, I have a motion sensor in my home that turns a light on when entering the room and it does not work with the new type light bulbs.

What is best for health? What is too high or too low? I have a dehumidifier to remove humidity and a humidifier to add moisture to the air, but what range should I keep the humidity levels at?

HELLO, I have a high concentration of plants and pets in my room (many of the pets have dirt floors and live plants), and recently I've had a lot of fruit flies swarming about. I believe the problem started when my guinea pigs had a bit of a digestive problem, leading to swarming in the guinea pig cage, and I believe when I cleaned the cage the remainder started breeding in my plants.

SO how do I get rid of the little bastards? Chemicals are most likely out of the question. And yes I do realize this question is asked like every week.

WHAT I'VE DONE is I put a little saucer thing and squeezed some honey in, and tilted it around so the entire inside is coated. Now will the flies get attracted to this and get stuck like planned? Is there a better bait to use? I use beer and coffee grounds for slugs in my garden, and I saw a previous question like this that wine could work, does it?

There are 43 leeches in this jar.
Please help me name them. They all have very distinct personalities and I want them to feel as though they are individuals.

My wife and I rent a really nice house but there's one glaring problem....ROACHES!!!! The tenants that were here before us were absolutely nasty. Anyway, we had an exterminator come out a few weeks back and spray. We've seen a noticable difference, but they're still around. The exterminator cant' come out for another two weeks but this problem is disguisting and needs to be solved now. Any over the counter products I can use BESIDES BOMBS (I have 2 cats and 2 dogs) that will effectively get rid of these things???

we are in a one-bedroom apartment and need more space but we can only afford to move to a neighborhood with less available convenient shopping and now we found a house we can afford but it is 7/10 mile form the things and people we will be walking to regularly. It will never be this easy to buy again (nothing to sell first) but I just cant get comfortable with the location. I dont want to cheat him but I need to feel comfortable. I have always had a problem making big decisions. i need a strategy to come to some conclusion about buying this house or not. If I wait the market will just go more in our favor bu tthere are no gurantees. How can I sort this out?

I'm visiting my mom's house for the week. How can I get her to turn up the heat? It's FREEZING in here! She is really cheap (and kindof poor) so she keeps the house at 60 degrees. It is ALWAYS SO COLD! She does this to save money. How can I get her to turn up the heat? She is really hard-headed!

I bought rice and when I got home and poured the rice in a pot, at least 100 bugs (LIVING) appeared. I called the health dept, and they stated that although they will fine the store, that bugs in rice is normal, if the rice is old. MY QUESTIONS: a) Do bugs in food indicate that the food is a hybrid, and thus that the food itself isn't good for humans? b) Do these bugs pose a health threat for humans (example: when the bugs excrete their waste into the food)?

Thanks

This is a plaque that displays a recipe for Cherry pie and another for Cinnamon bread. I would like to obtain more, however the store that sold them, has sold out and aren't going to get anymore in. The employee was able to tell me they came from Salem...that is all I know. The material reminds me of salt dough... please help, I would love to get more. Thanks...

Okay, My mom was put incharge to take care of our close friends house and they gave her a key. Yesterday, we went over to water the plants, and the door was unlocked. When we walked in, there was a ladder set up and leaves from a plant on the floor. On the carpet, there were huge chunks of dirt throughout the house. Every door in the house was open, there were footprints and handprints everywhere. In the little boy's room, his big TV was gone. In the parent's room, the closet was open and it looked as if soeone had been looking for something because all the clothes were scattered and messy. I am thinking a robber might have broken into their house or something? What should we do?

We currently have two aging flowering crabs in the front yard that we plan to replace this spring. We are trying to decide whether it would be better to put in slower-growing shade trees or faster-growing ornamental trees. As we will be retiring within the next 18 months or so and selling the house, my question is which type of tree would be more appealing to prospective buyers. The only other trees on the property are an evergreen tree and a Bradford pear tree, both in the back yard.
