We're ready to replace our 15 year old Bosch. We were never happy with
its performance or reliability anyway.
Are there any legit online sources of ratings and reviews? Browsing
around, all the sites I've hit so far seem to be nothing but parking

I've got major ant problem in my kitchen.  I've already posted the

I'd really appreciate it if someone could read the message I've

1.   Banning guns works, which is why New York, DC, and Chicago cops
need guns.
  2. Washington DC's low murder rate of 80.6 per 100,000 is due to

I heard that a vet can abort a pregnant cow, horse, or other
livestock.  Can someone please explain how this is done?  From what I
understand, they just give a drug.  But how soon must this be given,
and are there side effects?  What else should I know?

I would like to install a thermostat on my home furnace that con be
programmed for various temperatures at various times of the day.  This
part of my project is easy.
But, I also want to be able to control the thermostat remotely.  That

I need to control an appliance (120V 10A) using a controller designed to
switch low voltage device. So I need to add a relay in-between.
Is there any pre-packaged relay that includes a low voltage output (that can
be used to power the relay), a 3-prong power cord, and a 3-prong ...

I've seen on a post or on a web site last year a cable that was disgned for
home automation that had in the same cable a utp 4 piar cat 5e cable and a
14-2 cable for power...

Where were they when I was in?!!!

What is this crazy man talking about????? I know your thinking it!
Here is the scoop. The vent fan works somewhat but isn't always used
and rarely gets left on long enough to be truly effective. I would
like to purchase and install a set of shower surround panels, those

I need to attach a rail to my  92 year old Mom's front steps.  I am using a
1 inch galvanized pipe, 60 inches long, with  90 degree elbows on each end,
and 1 inch floor flanges for attachment at each end.
The pillars that I will attach to are some kind of mortar or concrete.  It

We just had a new Rheem  50 gal water heater installed.  The water was way
too high for our needs.
I turned the power off, and took off the plates to the thermostats.  Both
the upper and lower elements were set at 150 degrees, too hot for us.    I

We have some tumbled travertine (4x4, loose, not laid yet) that is sealed
with TileLab SurfaceGard Penetrating Sealer (the good stuff).  We want to
remove that sealer and then apply a color enhancing sealer.
I tried Superior Pro-Strip Sealer and Adhesive Remover.  It just beaded ...

Installing a lockset today (el cheapo Kwikset entry w/deadbolt), I
noticed they included two of those weird screws in the hardware package.
I worked out that they were intended to hold the passage lock strike to
the jamb.

I'm putting in a double door in my den's entry way. There are a couple of
walls I need to put in that will not flush with the existing walls. I'd like
to make them easy to take out if we, or another owner, decides to return to
the original design.

FTD. One of the best delivery systems around provided a gorgeous arrangement
of exotic flowers to SWMBO. The bouquet consisted of Stargazer lillies,
baby's breath, and another very fragrant flower.
The timing was spectacular; all the flowers were tightly wrapped buds when

I want one for a ceramic tile kitchen floor.  Price no object.  Don't
need bells and whistles.
Just want it to supply adequate steam and not leave a lake.
Thanks.

Heard on radio4 this morning that some research workers working for the
government, have introduced an insect that feeds on JK to two secret

I saw an old country house on TV called Eggleston Hall that had ivy growing
up it and I would like it on my house.
I would like on that's fast growing and one that changes colours with the
seasons (red in Autumn) can someone please point me in the right direction.

We had several warm days as well as nights above freezing so yesterday I
went out and pushed a spade deep into the sod.  No longer frozen or wet
to the point where the soil couldn't be worked.  I edged the outline of
my new garden with a flat spade which went well.  Now for the big
