I’ve used oven cleaner very successfully to remove a large blue stain on a steel enamel tub which was from the colours/ dyes from a popular male bodywash after it leaked onto the tub. It only took about a week for the colour to become “permanently” set. Oven cleaner was the *only* thing that would remove the stain.

I usually clean my acrylic tub using a just *slightly* dampened paper towel with lots of table salt. Use only enough moisture to stick some of the salt on to the paper towel. Paper products contain quite an abrasive surface however since the salt is somewhat soft it doesnt seem to harm the finish on the acrylic and…

Agreed. Oddly enough Blackberrys have had this feature for eons. (as well as search in settings). Nice to see Apple catching up finally and improving these productivity boosting functions. My iPad Mini might see some more action very soon.

Except the problem is you can only configure it using an app. No web interface at all otherwise. The point of having web based configuration is so anything can access it regardless of what os it runs. Networks are supposed to be vendor and os independent and has been since the day TCP/IP came into existence.

Hm... if memory serves its been a feature in Windows since version 3.0, (the 16-bit version).

Ah... you mean Ctrl+Alt+C is for Calc!

I pop the jar in the microwave for 30 seconds before I use it. Also a trick if you need to mix the oil into the peanuts before first opening it. Let the jar sit a few hours upside down. This will mix the two back together and avoid spilling it on the first stir.

Amarula French Toast with Fried Bananas and Fresh Blueberry Reduction

I do believe Thinkpads also have a similar application you can download called "Thinkvantage Access Connections". It's a bit more robust than Dell's if I recall... been a while since I had a Dell laptop.

The setting is often actually seen from within the drivers configuration tab. Open the properties for the network adapter from the Device Manager. Extra settings from the OEM can be found here (if any), and usually this is where you will find this setting.

Oddly-shaped pancakes are the best. I don't know what all you folks do but I just use a big spoon to get the batter in the pan. The trick to less mess is when you're measuring in the pancake mix or flour, do it over the sink! Put your wet ingredients all into the same measuring cup as the milk and mix the whole lot…

OK, so the tail end of your target field should read like this:

BlackBerry Playbook. Powerful, stable, crazy inexpensive, rockin-great speakers, HDMI out, industry-leading HTML5 support in Browser + Flash, Bridge, Android App support too and BB10 upgrade upcoming (for free!)

If you had a BlackBerry you wouldn't have those two problems. Screen lock and password lock are independent and Owner Info is displayed on the lock screen.

Small icons, left hand side taskbar, transparent-ish recycle bin.

I found this problem a lot recently. If it's a new TV check the back for a cable running to a connector that looks like a phone jack and unplug it. Instant fix!

The devices using the Unifying USB receivers typically get 8 to 10 times better battery life because Bluetooth protocols (ala version 2.x) waste more power versus these proprietary ones. They both provide the same range and use similar frequencies however. Bluetooth 4.0 strives to reduce power consumption but it is…

I use an old bread bag clip (aka bread tag). It gives you a nice easy place to find and pull the tape and it doesnt stick too much or waste tape. Plus I figure I ought to find a use for these things for once. Also useful to clip together your headphone and other often used cables without having to undo twist ties.

Basically I place the screws in the same position relative to where it came from. If I can drop the screw back into the spot where it came from when I put the piece aside I'll do that instead. ie. If you remove a hard drive cage, place the screws loose where they were taken from within the piece. Otherwise in a pinch…

I do two things: To prevent and deal with odours, sprinkle Borax in the bottom of the can under the bag. (I also use Borax in the laundry to eliminate fragrances and odours as well as improve the cleaning power of my detergent).
