 I have a Bissell Pro heat carpet shampooer. I have taken it completely apart to clean it and now it won't spray water out. It will suck water up, just won't spray it out. Any ideas as to why? Don't have it in the budget right now to buy a new one. Thanks so much.

  All that Neal Page wants to do is to get home for Thanksgiving. His flight has been canceled due to bad weather so he decides on other means of transport. As well as bad luck, Neal is blessed with the presence of Del Griffith, "Shower Curtain Ring Salesman" and all-around blabbermouth, who is never short of advice, conversation, bad jokes, or  ...

  Being trapped at the dinner table for Thanksgiving dinner with the relatives can be enough to drive anyone to the liquor cabinet, but there’s no need for the &#8220;Two Buck Chuck&#8221; or even a flask this year, so says Brand X. That’s because the nation’s first 100-proof vodka-infused turkey has arrived, and just in time, right? [...]

 If you are in Oregon this Thanksgiving, you stand a better than average chance of encountering Tofurkey. More people in New York are looking for caterers to prepare the holiday meal than anywhere else in the country. Live in the Southeast? Brace yourself for a big scoop of broccoli casserole.

 Given that Christmas has become a $400 billion annual spending spree here in the U.S., sometimes I think Scrooge had a point during his &quot;bah humbug&quot; period. Certainly a little spending moderation can't hurt this holiday season, and it might even put us back in touch with the true spirit and ideals of the season. Here's how to enjoy the  ...

  Science has never given much credence to claims that you can learn Chinese or French by having the instruction CDs play while you sleep, reports The New York Times. If any learning happens that way, most scientists say, the language lesson is probably waking the sleeper up, not causing nouns and verbs to seep into a [...]
