If the cost of natural gas,propane,electricity got so high in the future(higher than current rates/prices) to heat your home,providing your home has the means(e.g. fireplace,wood or coal stove) equipped to use either of these 2 fuels,which would you use, Wood or Coal???
I own a 3 bedroom two storey home and for the past year or so I have been using about 180-220 kwh in electricity per month. At that time I had a manual meter. My energy suppliers inserted a digital meter on the 18.06.08 and I was amazed to see that my meter read 458 kwh today (15.07.08). That is about twice the amount I used on a monthly basis. I have basic appliances i.e a television, a refridgeator, washing machine, desktop, microwave, toaster, stereo, kettle, Iron etc. I do not own a tumble dryer or dishwasher. There are 12ceiling lights in the house 7 of which are used with energy saving bulbs and these are the lights that are used on a daily basis. I also have central heating but its gas operated. My oven is also gas operated. Could there be a problem with my meter or is there probably an electrical fault in my home that is causing my meter to be racing?
I’m working on a project and was wondering which fireplace (ethanol, gas, or electric) consumes the least electricity. (i.e. Which will give you the cheapest energy bill?) Thanks!

I have been reading about autopsies on executed criminals,at the start of the autopsies,they insert a catheter to drain their bladder except where the criminal has been executed by electricity.
On all the criminals executed by lethal injection,gas,hanging and firing squad,it was necessary to drain their bladders before starting the autopsy,but where the criminals were executed by electricity,it was not necessary to drain their bladder because it was found that their bladders were always empty after being electrocuted.
Why is it that criminals executed by electricity always had empty bladders,but those executed by other methods had to have their bladders drained with a catheter before the autopsy?
Most recipes give the heat instruction for electric stoves and so do most packaged/frozen foods. I cook by gas. Does anyone have a converter chart which shows which electricity temperature is the equivalent of gas mark 4, 5, 6 etc.
I let a young couple with a 2 yr old baby, and very old grandad move in to my Texas vacation house in October. We have never signed a contract but agreed on 550 per month for a very nice 3 bed 2 bath -fireplace-never lived in-lake front property. They paid the first and lasts months rent and couldnt change the electricity over at that time when they moved in so I kept it in my name until they can change it over. They keep the thermostat at 85 and now I have a bill for over 1,600 and now they wont pay me back for it- They of course think it is too high and they didnt use all of that. I paid an electrician to check the voltage–another 150.00 and everything is fine—just has heat set too high- I had it turned off and they were forced to put it in their name. They have not paid anything since!
We have no signed contract–Can I move in with them? His wife and the baby, just left him. Can I put his belongings on the road when they are not home-or when they are home? Can I bring their 3000.00 plasma and 5000.00 furniture home with me? I need help fast.. I am a single mom trying to pay my own electric bill working 3 jobs! SOMEONE HELP!
last year a fierce ice storm blocked me out of my house, lost all electricity for days, no heat, no fireplace…put my food outside but still no heat. The question is, my food was outside and o’k…people say I would have been better off with a generator (gasoline-.00 gallon) but I say a wood burning stove (heat free)…after all, all my trees fell into my yard…and they still are in my yard. I have propane heat for my house, dryer, stove but that costs .00 a gallon/55gallons a month to heat my house, cook, use my dryer…solar is the best bet but that costs a bundle to install – generator or wood burning stove?
Here’s an odd thing, maybe someone knows what it might be? This is taking place in an empty lot by my house on a regular basis, day and night. For the last few months.
There is a loud popping sound, and a flash of light (at not not during the day) that sounds like something exploding. But there is nothing in the field. No kids setting off fire works or anything.
Its been happening daily, we have investigated, and their is nothing there. It only happens as one pop, and it happens at various times of the the day.
I thought the first few times it was a transformer box (Not the movie kind, but the kind that passes electricity) but the one in the field is fine, and the electric company had checked it.
It no longer startles us that much, we are now more curious than anything.
There is no damaged wire, and the electric company had checked out everything to make sure there is no issue. Weather plays no part of it from what I can tell, it happens when its raining, sometimes it cold, it can be hot and muggy, even a dry heat.
Okay, I’m 14-years-old and I’m going to write a novel (for funzies). So I was thinking about this plot line:
The thyme for this book will be emotion isolation (between Cora and the world), sexual tension (Cora and Jason) and the blurred line between good and evil (Mutants vs Agency).
Lonely 13-year-old Cora Hudgens discovers that she has the ability to produce electricity through her skin thus shocking anyone who touches her. At first she is excited about her new found power; she tries to use this ‘power’ for good and live up to her "superhero" fantasy. However, she soon discovers that she can only use the gift to harm people instead of help them. Thinking herself a freak, she runs away from home (she lives with her dad). She first meets Jason playing his guitar on the street for money, where she flips a coin in and he winks at her. At night Cora sets alight a small bonfire in an alley to keep herself warm using her electric touch. Just then she finds herself being shot at by a pair a shady men who happened to see her starting the fire with her touch. However, she escapes with the help of a boy called Jason West who she later befriends and then falls for.
Jason is a Clairvoyant; he can tell anything about a person/ place/ object just by smelling or tasting it. Cora refuses to share much about herself to Jason; she still cannot be sure to trust him. He is desperate to get close enough to kiss ("taste") her so he can know everything, even though that if he does he will be shocked by her touch. He also helps Cora develop her power into full Pyrokinesis.
He tells her that the men that attacked them are part of a secret government agency specially trained in eliminating all people with telekinetic or telepathic abilities like Cora and Jason. The secret agency claim they are doing it to protect civilians and for the "greater good", because these "mutants" are criminals (which is somewhat true, Jason is a petty thief) – but really they kill them to keep in power, as the "mutants" are the only people capable of overthrowing them. Jason leads Cora to an underground organization of fellow telepathic and telekinetic people where he promises she’ll be safe. Whilst they are traveling (by subway, they are the only two in the carriage)to get to this underground gang, they are again attacked by a telekinetic man from the Agency. However, they escape (although the train crashes) and decide it is safest if they continue the journey by foot. Once they get there she discovers that they have banded together in an attempt to destroy the government agency, and be free "permanently". In the gang she befriends Lucy, a girl with the ability to heal anyone’s wound just with her touch. Lucy tells Cora about how The Agency have captured some more powerful mutants and hypnotized them to fight against them like the man on the train. She also learns from the leader, telepathic Owen, that her powers are "a level 5" (very powerful) and that Jason was only bringing her here under his orders so that she could help defeat "The Agency" and thus she presumes that he does not feel the same love toward her that she feels toward him. So she runs away again, but comes back when she realizes that this is now her home and this way she can finally use her powers for a good cause….
I’ll stop there; if I decide to write it then I don’t want to give away the ending :]
It’s suppose to be for Young Adults by the way
No sh!t Sherlock
I’ve actually never seen Jumper in my life! No joke. I also don’t read x-men comics, just so you guys know that I genuinely thought this was an original.
