Corn Fireplace

Need advice on corn-fed fireplace or furnace? Want to put in small (l000 sq. ft.) house dining area, so it must be small and not ugly in appearance. Direct vent probably best, but stove pipe thru the roof is also an option. Footprint must be small so a big honking hopper is questionable?

Can you burn black walnuts in a fireplace or wood stove (not the wood, but the walnuts themselves)? There are tons of them around. They burn well in a charcoal bbq. I wonder if they can be used in a high efficiency wood stove? I've seen stoves which burn corn, so that got me wondering.

I have "popcorn corn" on the cob. How to pop it? We have a wood burning stove and fireplace.

corn snake heating question i am about to adopt a corn snake, and i have all the equipment needed, ( e.g. heat pad, uv light, 30 gallon tank, substrate, etc.) but, i live in a very old house w/ no central air. The room i'll be keeping him in gets to around 95 degrees or more during the summer. there is a window a/c unit, but to run that all day would be quite expensive. downstairs in the part i dont live in ( its a very large house ) is only a few degrees cooler. in the living area would be perfect, because we do keep an a/c running there, but i have two very rambuctios ( sorry 4 misspelling) who could get into the snake no matter where i kept it. winter is no problem because i have a gas fireplace that heats the whole house very well. i really need help with this, and any and all suggestions are helpful. thanks, squoosh54

Need ideas for an outside Thanksgiving Dinner? Lack of space has given me the idea to set up two big tables outside and serve dinner there. Plan on having two fireplaces for warmth, corn cooked on the grill, potatoes boiled over an open fire, big pot of hot choc on the grill burner which is high enough up to keep little fingers safe. We will cook the rest of the food in the house of course. Do you have any more ideas for on outside meal to make is "Pilgram like"? The weather is mild in Virginia. I plan to send an invitation out to communicate my plans.

Season's Beatings? There's gotta be a better way to spend December. Let's face it: once you're old enough to fall off of Santa's "List", Christmas loses some of its magic. Actually, it loses all its magic and turns into a super-commercialized orgy of over-eating, binge drinking, and familial Hell. But there isn't any "bah, humbug" here... no siree! We just think the venerable holiday could use some fresh changes, nothing big... just a couple of twists here and there. Like a new cover of "White Christmas" sung by Robert Downey Jr. perhaps, or maybe a Ninja Santa, or instead of giving presents, give advice. That way everyone gives and gets. So we kindly suggest that you enact some of these new traditions in your celebration of this holiday season. * Decorate your fireplace, tree, and house with long fatty strips of Christmas Bacon. * Fill a pair of galoshes with cottage cheese and leave them by the door Christmas Eve. Check back in the morning to look for Santa's little curds-slathered footprints. * Get rid of your Christmas Tree and invest in the new Yuletide rage... The Chia Christ! * Decorate your nipples with frosting, sprinkles, and tinsel. * Attend Midnight Mass and hoot "boo-yah" every time the priest mentions "the savior". * Carve stars in pumpkins, and hide painted eggs in your yard while dressed up like Abraham Lincoln. When your neighbors ask you what you're doing, respond, "I was going to ask you freaks the same thing." * Dress up like an elf, go to a playground, and collect lunch money from kids to "pay for Santa's chemotherapy". Buy a Christmas six pack with the proceeds. * Find out exactly how many cups of spiked eggnog it takes to get sugarplums to dance in your head. * Eat Christmas dinner at a soup kitchen in a suit and tie and complain loudly that the service is lousy, the creamed corn is lumpy, and someone smells like "ripe ass". * Casually hang out at a mall dressed like Santa. When hurried parents ask you if you're the on-duty Santa, smile and say "No. I'm John Wayne Gacy". * Get the crap beaten out of you for showing the "Christmas Spirit" by hugging strangers on the street. * Boil goat heads and festoon the outside of your house with them. Suggest to neighbors that they do the same because the skulls "spook flying reindeer". * Tell your parents you're bringing home someone special, and then arrive with a life-sized Gingerbread Man. If you're a man, tell your folks you're "gay for gingerbread". If you're a woman, tell them you have something else "cooking in the oven". * Make sure all your toy-sized nativity scenes come with spring-loaded attack sheep, kung-fu grip wise men, and shepherds that transform into robotic tarantulas. * Christmas Morning Happy Hour at Hooters, 6am 'til Noon.

What do all you Obama Supporters think of Ralphs comments on him?? Inside the packed bar, the guys and gals were gathering for the Big Game to start. Before the game, however, there was an hour for political talk time. Their eyes widened in amazement when they saw Barack, bounding through the doorway with his secret service detail. The bar had a big pit, with a huge crackling fireplace, where the patrons have their regular give and take. Obama was ready for some of that. He started: “I stand for change. They said we set our sights too high in Iowa. They said now is not the time. I proved the cynics wrong in corn country and I’ll prove them wrong in the granite state. To show you I mean it, no speech, go at me. Our time for change has come.” Guy number one—“Ok, Barack, you’re going for the power in the Big House, the big companies already have the power, how ya gonna make us little people powerful?” Obama—“Stay tuned. One leap at a time. We are one people. Get me there first.” Gal number one—“You say, CHANGE, well how are you going to cut the bloated military budget full of vast waste, fraud and abuse, when you’ve specifically said you’ll ‘expand and modernize the military?’ Why, it’s already half or more of the government’s operating budget, squeezing programs for children, health and all that. I’m an accountant and I know numbers.” Obama—“Exactly. Our time for change has come. I’m going to change the old weapons with new weapons and the old soldiers with the new soldiers. That’s real change—at the grass roots.” Guy number two—“You don’t seem to have any rough edges, Barack.” Obama—“It’s all about the mood, dude.” The crowd was getting agitated and the questions came faster and faster. “Why are you for nuclear power with taxpayer guarantees?” “Will you oppose Congress getting pay raises, pensions and health insurance until the American people get the same?” “Do you favor repealing the anti-union nightmare—the Taft-Hartley Act of 1947?” “How can you talk about change and take gobs of campaign money from the big corporate lawyers and bosses?” Obama, smiling: “It’s ALL about the mood, dudes. All the rest are details you can look up on my website—obama_is_us.org. We are choosing hope over fear.” Gal number two—“Ok, answer this one that probably isn’t on your website. When are you going to meet with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton and campaign in the black ghettos—say Harlem or Watts?” Obama—“Whoaa, give that tough lady a Poli-beer on me! We are one nation.” Guy number three (with an Obama face mask)—“I’m the old Obama, remember me? I was for single-payer, full medicare for everyone. I was strongly for Palestinian rights and for replacing NAFTA and WTO, not for tweaking them. I was for taxing the super-rich and defending class actions. I was for capping credit-card and loan shark interest rates. What happened to me?” Obama—“Well, didn’t I tell you that I stand for CHANGE?” Gal number three—“You seem to be for everyone, but not everyone is for everyone. Some are against everyone. Tell me, are the big corporations, the greedy defense contractors, drug, oil and insurance companies, starting to quake in their boots at the thought that you are now the front-runner?” Obama, lifting his chin—“Well, Ma’am, we haven’t ordered our seismometer yet.” Oooohs and boos float around the pit. A few start drifting away. Guy number four—“You’re one of those smart Haavard lawyers, Barack. You were a constitutional law teacher. You were against the illegal invasion and occupation of Iraq. So, why aren’t you putting two and two together—impeachment of the war criminals in the White House followed by conviction in the Senate?” Obama—“You don’t understand (testily), impeachment talk is just more of the same old Washington politics. I stand for change. No need to point fingers. We are one people.” Gal number four—“Hello, Barack. I’m Hermaphrodite and I luv your blended politics of harmony.” Obama—“Great! Then how about a quick dance around the bar before we have to leave,” he said, humming to the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic—“We are choosing unity over division, we’re sending a powerful message, that change is a coming to America, it is all about the mood, dude…”

Supplemental Electric Room Heat - What's best? I'd like a room heater to help warm up just the room we're using at any given time. I don't want to install a wood stove or corn burner (the installation costs. I'd love to have either.) Electric seems the most sensible because of no installation, and the portability. I was going to buy this (link) but - at just 1500W I now doubt if it would really help heat a whole room.. or if you's absolutely need to be right next to it to get the benefit. What say you? http://www.heartlandamerica.com/browse/item.asp?product=electric-fireplace&PIN=57151&GUID=9C132521-5A2A-47EC-9438-52D5C2ADA30A&BC=S&DL=SEH1

While at the dinner table, have you ever sucked anyone...? ...into a debate over politics or religion? Do you think dinner is the time to engage in such talk? Changing the subject, but I remember one time at an Italian restaurant in Hot Springs, AR I blew some hot soup off my spoon and it sprayed my friend in the face and he jumped backwards in his chair and bumped into the chair behind him and knocked a motorcycle helmet off it and it rolled across the floor and crashed into an acoustic guitar propped up by the fireplace hearth and it fell over with A LOT of noise and disturbed everyone there. When the guitar fell it also knocked over a basket of Indian corn & it went rolling all over the place. lol I was very embarrased.

Are these answers to my 7th grade science lab correct? If not can you help me revise.? Also, i like to go above expecations, so if you have any thing else, that woud be great. thanks. 1.What happens in the atoms of metals that causes them to give off a color during a flame test? (Refer to the back ground information) The electrons in the atom get excited and gain energy, similar to corn popping. Then, when the electrons return back to their normal energy levels, they release extra energy as photons of light. 2.Why is it necessary to clean the platinum wire between flame tests? It is necessary to clean the platinum wire because if any of the compounds mix, they could create a harmful chemical reaction. 3.What colors would you expect to see if your teacher cave you the following compounds? Lithium Chloride- I would expect to see red. Sodium Nitrate- I would expect to see yellow. Potassium Sulfate- I would expect to see purple. 4.If a pan of milk boils over on a stove, the flame turns red-orange. What metal compound must be present in the milk? A metal compound that may be present in the milk could be Sr (NO3) 2. 5.You have just returned from the moon with a handful of crystals. Describe one method (that you have just learned) that you could use to identify some of the elements in these crystals. One method I could use is the flame test. By placing a crystal over a Bunsen burner and observing the color of the flame, it could help me determine if the crystal is an earth element or compound. 6.For what type of element can flame tests be used for identification? Metals can be experimented on with the flame test for identification. 7.Name at least one practical way that the colored flame of metals can be used in industry or entertainment. One way a colored flame could be used for entertainment is fireworks. By using different elements and compounds, the colors of fire works can be changed. Another way is creating colorful candles or fireplaces.
