question about electrical wiring?
I have taken out the rotating speaker from an old organ that I wish to externalize to another organ.
It has its own "transformer" (I think......little metal-layered box with a wire core in the middle) labeled 115v 60hz. i cut the wires from it that went to the main power supply for the organ. What I am wondering is, can I just solder a plug onto the ends of the power wires and plug it in? Eventually I would install a switch of some sort. Anyhow, because it has the little 115V thingy, how can I plug this thing in?

3 AnswersSoftware8 years agoFuture of the GOP in question?
Is the GOP the last best hope for America, or.......as Ive heard, is the GOP just a collection of old, uptight, angry, bible-thumping, racist, homophobic, elitist Hitler-ites? Like you, I was shocked to learn that many in America believe republicans to be a bunch of Glenn-Beck, Rush Limbaugh regurgitators who often complain loudly when their narrow-minded, religion-based agenda is falling farther and farther behind. Im really confused and need guidance here. Is the GOP going to lead the way into a prosperous future? Or, as Ive been told, will the GOP continue to try and advance a "moral" bible-based political agenda which will attempt to stifle the rights of basically anyone who isnt a gun owning, white, bible-toting, heterosexual conservative? Ive been told these people are CRAZY....like....clinically crazy......and that I should NEVER EVER trust ANYONE who claims to be a republican. Should I join my local community in protesting EVERY SINGLE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE running for office? Should I work tirelessly to promote the progressive politics of a more modern, accepting, and just downright friendly political party....like say, any party that isnt conservative? Should I try to help save the GOP from sinking under the waves? I can plainly see that this is a dinosaur of a political party....destined to disappear. But should I try to preserve it, for the sake of our country? Or should I let the miserable cretins fade into non-existence? I know, Ill just go convert to christianity, buy a bunch of guns, paint everything I own red, white, and blue, and tell mexicans to love it or leave it. Im gonna tell gay couples they disgusting and cant get married. Im going to shoot my gun in the air on New Years. Im gonna bully people into thinking my religion is sacred and unquestionable. Im gonna WORSHIP, AS IF IT WERE AN IDOL, a piece of old paper written a couple hundred years ago. Im going to lobby for our judicial system to be based on the bible. Im going to lobby for our entire government to be ran according to biblical principles...basically, Im going to work to ensure that our government is a theocracy, by us christians, for us christians. Ill work to ensure that the only legislation is passed is legislation that limits the rights of heretics and non-believers.
OOpppppssss....wait a tic.....I got a little to close to the microwave while writing that......maybe Ill just enjoy the demise of these Republican turds from a distance. Yah, that's what Ill do.
12 AnswersPolitics8 years agoPolitical Question about Republican Party?
Why do republicans unilaterally oppose abortion while at the same time also opposing measures that ensure that those un-aborted children will all be fed, housed, educated, clothed, and given medical treatment? Is what George Carlin said about abortion true? The care about you when youre in the womb, but once your born, youre scewed.
5 AnswersPolitics8 years agoBugs Bunny cartoons question?
I would like to know the name/title of a particular short Looney Tunes clip.....I know it has Marvin the Martian and either Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck. In the film, one of the characters pulls out a "gun"....the other character responds by pulling out a bigger "gun".....and arms race ensues and by the time they are done, giant missles are aimed at both sides...if I recall correctly, the "view" then becomes a way-pulled back (zoomed out ) view of the tiny planet with the missles showing...then they fire and the planet blows up. I have see the first DUCK DOGERS...and this IS NOT THE one I am after......any ideas? Than ks for all your help.
2 AnswersComics & Animation8 years agoQuestion about divorce?
I live in Oregon.
My wife is doing a "do it yourself" quickie divorce. I expect to get it in the mail to sign. I have 90 days to wait it out if I want. Anyway, sometime after that we have to go see the judge.
IF I WANT ANYTHING FROM HER, do I have to submit an "answer" to the decree BEFORE we go to see the judge? Or can I ask the judge for stuff VERBALLY on the court date?

9 AnswersOther - United Kingdom1 decade agoLandlords and repairs..timeline and new tenants?
My wife and I moved out of a rental on the 26th of February.
Two days PRIOR to move out, the landlord's nephew started moving things in to the house.
the landlords are now trying to ding us for replacing the carpet due to our dogs damaging it (which they did)
However, they still havent fixed the damages, even though they still have all our money.
We are wondering 3 things:
By allowing another party to move in prior to our official move out date,and prior to any inspection, had the landlord assumed all responsibility for the property?
By moving in someone BEFORE making repairs, have we been released from being obligated to pay for those repairs?
Lastly, are they obligated to complete repairs within 31 days of our move out?
thanks!!
6 AnswersRenting & Real Estate1 decade agoQuestion about rental deposit return/deadlines?
Just double dipping this question from LAW AND ETHICS...didnt know there was a rental property catagory
Landlords nationwide are required to return unused portions of security deposits. In Oregon, they are required to provide a "written accounting that states specifically the basis or bases of the claim." (why they are keeping/using your deposit).
My question: Does this "written accounting" have to be an actual document sent to you, or do you think a hastily written email qualifies as a "written accounting"???
I got an email from my former landlord telling me why she wasnt sending back any deposit (cleaning the carpets)....I dont think this meets the standard of law.
