    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    Thanks, I'll test the hot vs. ground, hadn't done so yet. When I get home I will check every outlet, too. We don't have a basement. I don't think there's any way for me to trace the line from the breaker, either.

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    The ones I picked up were $1.50 but I believe rated for 14AWG. I will go back and pick up the 12AWG ones, and yes, I am using the side-screw kinds, all that I've found so far are the push-in variety. I have a feeling I'm overlooking an outlet somewhere, and will go through and double check...

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    Update 2: So the outlet in question was very damaged. The front face had fallen off and a wire behind it was burned a bit. I replaced the outlet (I'm getting good at this now... took me about 20 min.). Unfortunately... that outlet wasn't on the circuit that's giving me issues. So now I'm back to...

    Yep, I'm replacing those with regular outlets as I'm going along the line.

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    Update: Well, I think I found the bad socket. My dad "forgot" to tell me about a damaged socket that was giving him issues a couple years ago that was behind a sofa. (grr, after all this work) I can't exactly test it with the outlet tester because of the damage done to the socket, so I'm not...

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    Thanks, the outlets I've inspected have enough wire, but I have not yet found a "bad" outlet (one that the plugin tester doesn't work on). The dead outlets still show a "correct" wiring using the tester. I'm not sure how many things were plugged into the circuit at the time it went down, but...

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    Okay, I'm not totally clueless =X about all things electric -- I have some experience soldering electronics, but I don't really know much about household wiring. Everybody's been telling me that the plugin tester shouldn't work if it doesn't get 120 volts, so I'm not sure what the plugin...

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    I'm sorry but I didn't really understand any of that? I'm trying to Google the terms, but I'm really clueless as to anything electric. I'm reading a home improvement manual and a bunch of electrical sources to learn everything I can.

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    Okay, well, I inspected several of the outlets, they all look fine inside. As far as checking the voltage to the breaker, the electrician used those contact-free volt checkers at the circuit breaker and they lit up. I was going to purchase one of those testers too but assumed it wasn't...

    Home Electrical -- Circuit down?

    All of the outlets on a circuit in my home are down. I called an electrician in on Friday and he tested the circuit breakers (all were fine). He then tested the outlets with a plugin outlet tester, and those showed up fine too. Thinking everything was fine, I apologized for asking him to...

    Selecting a health insurance plan (for small business)?

    My mom and I run a small importing business. She has her own personal health insurance, which the company reimburses a large portion back to her for, but it's pretty expensive (Blue Cross/Blue Shield PPO I think) -- about $550/mo. Her deductibles are high, and at one point she was spending...

    Chest exercise with no lower back impact

    I've found that machines isolate their specific muscle really well, so if you're having a problem with those, it might be an issue of weight. Try dropping the weight down low to where you can be sure your lower back isn't involved in the movement at all. I'd think free weights would be a bigger...

    Multivitains - Do you take them? Which brand?

    I used to take the Costco Performance multivitamin (6 pills -- 1 multi, 1 b-complex, 2 calcium, 1 vitamin e, 1 ginseng), but I had a couple bad experiences with it here and there. It seemed to dissolve too quickly, and would make my stomach sour if I hadn't eaten much. I switched over to Men's...

    look for a protein bar

    I thought this thread was about protein bars? I eat Zone Perfect bars. They're not really protein bars, 23g carbs, 14g protein, 7g fat, but they do the trick and don't taste that bad. As far as protein sources, I drink Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey. I just got the Vanilla Chai flavor and it is...

    Why is it so hard for me to eat in the morning?

    Have you tried eating something different like eggs + chicken + toast? I don't mind oatmeal and yogurt at all, but the texture never really agreed with my stomach first thing in the morning.

    Fat loss - how to lose the bulge and gain the ripples

    I would add in using a Multivitamin to your guide (even though it's been discussed in this thread). I've found it to be pretty essential -- a lot of people get at least some of their nutrients from breads and fruit juices, and limiting those carb sources limits some vitamin intake. Also...

    Wired router over a wireless connection?

    I just had the cable guy come in and install new cable internet service. The cable was on one side of the house, and to avoid him stretching wires all across the living room, I told him to just set it up by the TV. I have Vonage phone service on the way, and then I realized I didn't want to...

    I just got a MISDEMEANOR for urinating in public?

    Yeah, I know it's my fault for admitting that "i had to go" to the cop, but he was REALLY intent on giving me a DUI so I freaked out and stammered something much lesser out. I really thought pissing was just a citation, which I was willing to pay. Had I known it was a misdemeanor I wouldn't have...

    I just got a MISDEMEANOR for urinating in public?

    I'm Taiwanese. Nobody saw me pee, not even the police officer. He saw some wet soil near my car, and that was it. I just don't want any employer looking up my record and seeing a misdemeanor, even though I know it's nothing.

    I just got a MISDEMEANOR for urinating in public?

    Well, is there any chance I can get this demoted or thrown out? I don't mind paying the fee, whatever it'd be, but I do mind having something on my record.

    I just got a MISDEMEANOR for urinating in public?

    Well I'm almost sure I'm not going to get jailtime for something this minor. In fact I want it demoted to a citation or something similar if it is at all possible. I have a good degree and job so I'm not worried too much about this but I still don't want it to be on my record.

    I just got a MISDEMEANOR for urinating in public?

    I was driving home from quite a distance (30 min. away) when I stopped by a local fast food joint to pick up a combo meal and extra large drink. After realizing I hadn't peed in a long time I desperately needed to relieve myself, and seeing nothing around me I stopped on the side of the road and...

    Computer BSOD's randomly

    About a year ago I upgraded my computer from an ASUS P4S533, P4 2.0ghz, 512mb Samsung DDR PC2700 RAM, and MSI GeForce3 to 1gb RAM and an ATI Radeon 9800. I also modded my Enermax 430w PSU's fans to a quieter version. After 10 months of having no problems at all, my computer started randomly...

    Windows XP not assigning my sound card?

    I was using my Turtle Beach Santa Cruz sound card on my PC and a MOTU Traveler Firewire sound card on my (since-sold) Powerbook. Since the PB's gone, I hooked up the MOTU Traveler to the firewire port on my PC. First, all it did was continue to playback sound out of my Santa Cruz sound card...

    Is it just me, or has Firefox been buggy...

    I've been using Firefox for quite some time now, and it's always been rock solid. Lately, though (for about the past month) Firefox has been crashing pretty constantly. I thought upgrading to RC2 would help but it hasn't. I'm a pretty avid tab-browser, usually having 5-10 pages open at a time...

    Steve Irwin "Croc Hunter" is dead

    Does anybody know anything about laminate flooring?

    Speak of the devil, this actually worked. I was taking pictures then I decided to take 2 planks out and really rough them around to get them to fit and then I heard a little pop and they fit together fine~ they weren't totally level but I started bending them here and there and they...

    Does anybody know anything about laminate flooring?

    I purchased some IKEA tundra laminate flooring and from the IKEA website it supposedly looks really easy to install. That is... if it weren't a piece of crap. Iono if it's the heat or humidity or whatever but two planks do not go in together side by side and lay flush. They kinda bend at the...

    Why do people hate iTunes?

    The biggest quirks I had with it (on Mac): - Library? Files? Playlists? I just want to drag and drop files onto there, and I want iTunes to track them if I reorganize them (something winamp doesn't do). - Do you have mp3's that are supposed to go right into the next one? (Pink Floyd albums...

    I managed to stay WoW-free for all of two months

    I quit a couple months ago. Rolled a Human Priest to 60, got her pretty geared up (no epics, but had most of the tier 0 set, upgraded about half to 0.5, was running MC). After devoting 20-30+ hours a week to it, I really found myself liking all the free time I had. The whole grind was just...
