My Maytag dryer quit working during a "dry". There is no power at all, including the light.?
I have read about thermal fuses and thermostats. Would either of these cause the inside light to go out as well? The dryer is only 4 years old.
3 AnswersMaintenance & Repairs1 decade agoIs sweet paprika the same as paprika?

3 AnswersCooking & Recipes1 decade agoWhy can't I record a major league baseball game or any sporting event for that reason?
I understand there are copyright rules but there is no where you can buy a professional sporting event in it's entirety. With sitcoms and movies, you have the option to purchase them online or at the store. So MLB, NFL, NHL, NBA etc.. has all these games just sitting there collecting dust when they could be selling them to the public for a profit. I'm sure there are a lot of fans that would like to have a copy of their favorite team winning the championship.
3 AnswersOther - Sports1 decade agoWhy was I in violation of Yahoo Guidelines?
Last night I asked the question : "Did anyone notice the lack of eye contact by McCain in the debate?" I received over 20 responses last night and after opening my email this morning, I was stunned to see that Yahoo said my question was in violation of "Community Guidelines". I searched other questions and there are several that ask exactly what I did yet they are not in violation?

11 AnswersElections1 decade agoWhy isn't my TV picture clear anymore?
I have had cable in my home without a cable box for a while now. The cable runs directly into my TV. About 2 weeks ago, the picture, especially on the local channels, has become very unclear. The higher the channel, the better the picture. I realize that in Feb of 2009, a converter box will be necessary but why am I not able to get a clear picture now? Have some channels already begun the switch to digital?

17 AnswersGolf1 decade agoWhich city has the worst sports fanbase and why?
I live in the Tampa/St.Pete area and can tell you these fans are the worst. They are unknowledgeable, obnoxious and unloyal. Whether it be football, hockey or now baseball, these fans are only interested when the hometown team is actually in the playoffs. And even then, they struggle to sell out their venue's. (ie... Bucs vs. Giants Playoffs January 2008)They use sporting events for get-togethers whereas REAL sport towns have get-togethers for sporting events. (yes there is a difference) These so-called fans are extremely unappreciative and definitely undeserving of the SuperBowl and Stanely Cup Championships they have won.
4 AnswersOther - Sports1 decade agoWhat do you think of this double trade I pulled off?
keep in mind that this is a total points league but I traded Micah Owings and Raul Ibanez for Jake Peavy. Then I turned around and traded Jake Peavy and Mike Lowell for David Wright. So ultimately I traded Micah Owings and Raul Ibanez for David Wright. Good or bad managing?
4 AnswersFantasy Sports1 decade agoIs the internet and or texting making people poor spellers?
I understand that everyone wants to get their point across as fast a possible these days but I think it really looks ignorant when words (especially easy ones) are misspelled. I mean we have tools like spell check and easy access to online dictionaries so why would you risk looking stupid when you dont have to?

10 AnswersElections1 decade agoHow can I find a good job?
I am a recent criminal justice major graduate. I am a late bloomer and unfortunately the majority of my previous work experience is in the travel business. I would love to begin a new career as a fraud/insurance investigator or even in social services but I am finding that experience, not education is the biggest requirement. I am beginning to think all of my hard work in school has been wasted.
