Which brand - and if possible, which model - of electric blanket gets the hottest?
I have a new Sunbeam electric blanket. Sunbeam tells me ALL of their blankets get to 110 degrees Fahrenheit. But it's nowhere near as warm as the old blankets. Is this some kind of new government regulation? Or are there other brands that make a blanket that gets hotter?

I have received a threatening email. It is suggested that I file a complaint, or press charges, under whatever US law is similar to the British "Malicious Communication Act". But I can't seem to find such a law, though I'm sure there is one. Does anyone know what it is called, or how I can find it? Thanks in advance.

3 AnswersSoap Operas1 decade agoWhen and with what does one take Resveratrol capsules?
I have begun to take Resveratrol supplements, but am getting conflicting advice on WHEN to take them, and WHAT to take them with.

Any advice? And, with what liquid - Water? Milk? Tea? or.......?

We have a 15 year old cedar deck that's starting to go. As we're older now, we would like to replace it with one that's as maintenance-free as possible, and also reflects as little heat as possible. Any suggestions? We THINK we have it down to Gossin Passport, Trex Accents or Brasilia, & Fiberon Horizon. Which would you use, and why?
2 AnswersDo It Yourself (DIY)1 decade agoNow that the outside temperature is BELOW freezing, will I damage my central air conditioner if I turn it on?
We have a heated loft where we can not control the quantity of heat. So, even when it is VERY cold outside, the loft is quite hot. We have been told that turning on the A/C when the outside temperature is very cold will eventually break the compressor. Others say that is not true. Which is correct?
