The perfume hoax is about a man that is walking around trying to sell you perfume so he gets you to smell it. It is really some chemical that makes you pass out and he does whatever with you or your car after you are unconscious. I don't remember many of the details other than the fact that it is a hoax to scare people. Sorry I couldn't help much more.

This is pretty straightforward to figure out.\n\nFirst figure out how many candles.  Each one is 400g from a 20kg block.\n\nYou would divide:\n20kg / 400g\n\nFirst convert to the same units:\n20000g / 400g\n\nSo you can create 50 candles from a 20kg block.\n\nSelling them at £4 each that's a gross income of £200.\nSubtract your original investment of £40 for a profit of £160\n\nSelling them at £5 each, that's a gross income of £250.\nSubtract your original investment of £40 for a profit of £210\n\n(Note: this all assumes that you have no other costs, but in real life you have your labor, equipment, waste and defective product, electricity, marketing & sales, returns, etc.  So if this is a real life question, your net profit will actually be much less.)\n\nPutting that all aside for now, the answer to this question would be that you can make around 50 candles and a profit between £160 and £210.

Depends on what it is for. Maybe a candle or something of that sense?

Jedi mind tricks, Force pushes, lightsabre butt-taps, and Force levitation of girl's Padawan robes.\n\nOh wait a minute, they're Jedi they don't play tricks because it is not the way of the Force to play pranks on each other. =)

THE candle?  any particular one?  If you mean the one on the taller holder, it's the "shamash" or lead candle.  It's the one that does the lighting.  The other candles don't have a name.

In the 1970s, there were many reports of people who claimed to have the ability to cause such events. The most notable in the West was Uri Geller, a former stage magician who demonstrated his alleged psychic powers by bending metal spoons (hence the popular name above) as well as metal keys and several other objects and materials. However the reports were met with skepticism by most scientists, and many reported performances were eventually exposed as tricks and frauds by professional stage magicians such as James Randi.\n\nIn most cases, the trick could be accomplished simply by misdirection, a basic tool of the stage magician. Namely, the performer draws the audience's attention away from the spoon during the brief moment while he is actually bending it with his hands. The typical bend, where the bowl meets the handle, requires relatively little force.\n\nAnother possible method is to use a metal spoon that has been previously doctored so that a simple flick will cause it to bend. This can be done, for instance, by repeatedly bending the spoon at the desired spot, until the metal cracks and weakens. A skilled magician can disguise a sharp flick so that it appears smooth and natural.

Hi there. I have sold Partylite candles for 6 years. May be of some help. We always use the hour for every inch in diameter. If the candle is 3 inches around, let it burn for 3 hours or longer. Do you know how wide? That should help give you an estimated time?!

I had one with my sister and cousin few weeks ago. But my sister help out, cuz she speak and see the dead. That made it more excited. But anyway, we got tea light candles and made a wide circle around us with them. \nThen we turn the lights out and held hands. Then one will be the spokeperson and call out to the spirits. One person will be the gateway, or the door for the spirits to come thru. But be careful, like the other person said. Some spirits ain't all nice either. \nIf you want a playing board with a playing piece. Then you can use that in your little seance. If you can't afford one, then use notebook paper pieces. Just do the letters and numbers. Along with the yes and no and goodbye as well. \nThen tear the piece apart from one another, and use on a flat surface. Like a table or anything hard. Then use a shot glass or a medium shot glass for the playing piece. But we done that twice and we love to have candles as well burning when we play it. \nBefore we got started, we always bless ourselfs. Have fun and be careful.

Since the active ingredient in a candle is parrafin wax you need to get some plain parrafin wax and then some of the other non active ingredients.\n\nOnce you have done this light the parrafin wax and tryt o light the others and then you can see that you can not light the non active ingredients and you can light the parrafin.\n\nSo it must be the parrafin that burns in a candle.

Light up tennis shoes generally work via small batteries connected to LEDs through a flashing circuit and pressure switch. The batteries are toxic if opened.

It works by having little mirror slices at different angles. As light is reflected off the orb, the little slices separates the light into several colours briefly and the process is repeated.

Call the fire department.  I'm quite sure there are some strict regulations about burning candles in children occupied areas.  If nothing else, common sense would say you don't burn candles where kids can get to it.
