Serta applegate mattress

Shimla, Nov. 25: Congress leader Sukh Ram, 80, may be haunted by mattresses but he had more than a good night s sleep on his mind when he announced he was retiring yesterday.

P.V. Narasimha Rao s communications minister � who became a symbol of corruption a decade ago after stacks of cash were allegedly seized from under his mattress � is quitting active politics to win a cushioned seat for his son.

The Mandi Sadar MLA s announcement came after he had made sure that his son Anil Sharma would be given the Congress ticket from the constituency in next month s Himachal Pradesh elections

'As long as it doesn't leave the casino, you don't have to pay the taxes,' one buddy told me. His proof was that a friend of his employs this interesting strategy, so it has to be true. My other friend was equally insistent that this was a little known example of Internal Revenue Service largess.
Now, I only covered the federal courts and IRS criminal cases for several years so what do I know? But in those years I came away with the feeling that the IRS wasn't exactly the federal agency with a biggest heart. (That would be the U.S. Department of Free Air, Gravity and Good Wishes.)
In fact, I covered a case where a gullible gentleman had been told by some scam artists that paying federal taxes is voluntary and so he didn't have to do it. Before finding him guilty, a real sweetheart of a visiting federal judge known to occasionally bite off the heads of criminal defendants and spit them out into the hallway, leaned over the bench, glared at the poor guy and yelled, 'Yeah, paying taxes is voluntary! You volunteer to do it OR SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS TO YOU!' He then sent the man to the slammer for two years.
So the idea that the IRS would let gamblers squirrel away their winnings in a casino seemed a tad too philanthropic to be true

Ja-nice is now on the waiting list for a kidney. But in the meantime, Martin prepares her for dialysis each night.

A catheter stretches from Ja-nice's tiny stomach and is connected to a large plastic bag and to the dialysis machine next to the air mattress she uses as a bed. While she sleeps, dialysis fluid cycles through her body to clean her blood.

Each morning, Martin tries to wake up by 6 a.m. to unhook the machine before making breakfast for her five children and shuttling the four boys off to school.

Cover mattresses with allergen barriers in order to reduce dust that could contain pbdes is possibly linked to household pollutant
By Niki Laviolette Terre Haute Humane Society
TERRE HAUTE - The Environmental Protection Agency has conducted a new study regarding the possible connection between polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE - a flame retardant chemical added to various household products) and an increase in hyperthyroidism in cats. This study, published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology in August, confirmed that some housecats had high levels of PBDEs. Although the evidence was not conclusive, it is possible that PBDEs may increase the risk of hyperthyroidism in cats. PBDE's have been a concern for years as a potential health risk for humans, particularly relating to the nervous and reproductive systems. Polybrominated diphenyl ethers is a flame retardant commonly used in the manufacture of household products such as upholstery, carpets and mattresses. PBDEs has been used since the 1970s and products containing this chemical release it into house dust

Best offer memory foam mattress pad

Pocketed coils are individual steel inner-spring coils encapsulated in pockets. These are then attached to form the mattress. Because the springs are not interconnected there is more motion separation than conventional inner-spring mattresses. All top rated pocketed coil mattresses use high-tempered steel coils. Additionally, each mattress manufacturer has unique design points that separate them from their competitors. Pocketed coil mattresses are also married together with a variety of materials such as, latex, silk or wool fibres or memory foam, which gives each mattress an unique feel of support and comfort.

Jamison Pocketed Coil Mattress

Jamison marries its pocketed coils to a variety of materials including Talalay Latex, Temperature Sensitive Memory Foam, or Omalon, each one offering the consumer different comfort requirements. Unlike other manufacturers Jamison has joined the coil pockets at the center creating a 'free-floating system' that, it claims, provides 100% coil conformity. The company also claims that the Jamison pocket coil mattress has 27% more support in the center zone than its competitors where you body needs it most giving you correct spinal alignment. There are many manufactures of pocketed coil mattresses and whether you really do get 27% more support than other mattresses on the market is debatable

Intex air bed mattress

GENEROUS friends, family and colleagues of a former moto-cross star have raised £4,000 in his memory to help others.

The funds raised in memory of Lawrence Bird will be used to buy specialist beds to allow more terminally-ill patients to also spend their last days at home with their families.

Mr Bird, of Rushmere St Andrew, Ipswich, died after a long fight with bone and liver cancer on July 1 but was able to spend his last days at home with his wife Sarah and 26-year-old son Aston thanks to an electric air mattress donated by Suffolk Community Equipment Services.

After his death Mrs Bird set up a fund to raise money to help others in a similar situation and raise awareness that there was such a service.

After collecting £4,000 Mrs Bird was able to make a presentation at the Bluebird Lodge centre, Ipswich, yesterday.

The money was enough to buy two beds, complete with electric air mattress and syringe drives. Mrs Bird said she was “overwhelmed” as the amount was £1,000 more than anticipated.

She said: “It is a lovely tribute to Lawrence, who was very much respected and well liked by all who knew him.

“My dad, John Rush, sadly died of cancer eight years ago in St Elizabeth Hospice and it is a wonderful place, but it was so important to us to have Lawrence at home.”

She said the loan bed allowed her husband to die peacefully and with dignity and thanked everyone who had helped to raise the money.

the mattress store offers new englander mattresses and a variety of secondhand mattresses, including pillow top and standard twin, full, queen and kingesses at discounted prices, said Shelly Kern, who opened the shop with her husband, Kerry Kern, near the end of October.It’s also Kern’s goal to donate mattresses and assist various community organizations like The Baby Fold, Home Sweet Home Ministries and Recycling Furniture for Families.“We just opened up, and there’s already a need,” Kern said.Kern became more involved in charitable programs when her son Andrew became sick and eventually died from cancer in 2005. She supports national charities like the American Red Cross and United Way but also sees a need to reach out specifically to a local sick, elderly person without family nearby who just wants a Christmas meal.“They need attention, too, and that’s our community, that’s our area where we’re living,” Kern said.Since her family moved to Normal a year and a half ago, Kern has spent about eight months as a front desk receptionist for Home Sweet Home Ministries. She’s now a part-time residential counselor with Chestnut Health Systems.The mattress store offers new Englander mattresses and a variety of secondhand mattresses, including pillow top and standard twin, full, queen and king sizes, Kern said.

Apartment residents were evacuated from the building because of the smoke, which was heaviest on the first floor, Leslie said.

Barton and another man in the apartment were transported to a local hospital for treatment for smoke inhalation, Leslie said. Barton, who had been drinking, was held in jail until he was sober, Kolb said.

As always, P.J. O’Rourke quickly nudged my newsman’s curiosity in his book 'Age and Guile Beat Youth, Innocence and a Bad Haircut' (Atlantic Monthly Press) with this lead: 'I began to write for pay in the spring of 1970, albeit that pay was mostly peanut butter sandwiches and mattress space. The mattress was not very clean. But neither was I.'

Peter Golenbock tugged at my sleeve in his book 'Wild, High and Tight' (St. Martin’s Press), a masterful biography of former New York Yankees baseball player and manager, the mercurical Billy Martin, when he began: 'Billy Martin was driving, despite everything written to the contrary. It was Christmas Day 1989, and as he sat behind the wheel of his Ford F250 four-wheel drive three-quarter ton pickup truck, he was heading back to his farm just outside Binghamton, New York, to celebrate a holiday he hated with a wife he despised, except when they were in bed together.'

One of the big compromises with toy haulers has been no access to the garage from inside. The Fuzion offers sliding patio doors that will seal in any unwanted smells from the garage, but allows quick access without having to go around and enter through the side door.

While the garage itself is tough and rugged, the trailer side is comfortable and accommodating. Above the hitch is the bedroom with a full-sized queen bed featuring a pillow-top mattress thanks to the generous slide. The washroom and shower are both comfortable and spacious, with the nice addition of a skylight above the shower for extra light. Full-length mirrors at the front of the trailer slide open to reveal a large closet next to a dresser large enough to hold clothes for several weeks without a wash.

Fortunately, amongst the large group of tourists at the scene was a doctor from Brisbane who safely got the injured man out of the water and onto a flat surface before cushioning the man with towels to keep him immobilized before help arrived.

The Energex rescue chopper arrived to find the man in a great deal of pain.

Crew treated the man on scene before loading him onto a vacuum mattress - a specially designed air mattress for people suffering suspected spinal injuries that moulds to the patients shape to main immobility.

The injured man was then airlifted to Bundaberg Base Hospital.

“He was certainly lucky a doctor was on hand,” said rescue chopper crewman Gary Craig.

“Fraser Island is a fantastic place to see, but visitors need to understand that warning signs are there to prevent people getting hurt”

Sealy mattress co.

While Jordan said every family Mustard Seed helps has a story, some affect Mustard Seed's employees more than others.

'The ones that really get me are the ones who come in with their little kids,' Jordan said.

One boy in particular stands out in Jordan's memories. He was about 5 years old, and she first saw him as he sat in the waiting area with his family.

'He sat there just like a little angel,' Jordan said.

Then the family was led to the storage room, where the boy, who had been sleeping on a crib mattress on the floor, saw his new bed.

Jordan said the boy's face lit up, and he said, 'I'm getting me a new bed.'

The group, which aims to help people rebuild their lives after personal disasters like fires or financial troubles, was fashioned off a Florida organization by the same name.

Jordan said Mustard Seed opened in March 2002 and serves Allen, Adams, Wells, Huntington, Whitley, Noble and DeKalb counties.

'What's unique about Mustard Seed is we help Fort Wayne,' Jordan said. 'We help our neighbors.'

This holiday season, like other organizations, Mustard Seed is in need of community support to collect the items they use to help the needy.

The organization wants furniture that is free of rips, stains and pet hair, including bed frames, mattress sets, dressers, couches, chairs, lamps, coffee tables, end tables, kitchen or dining room tables and chairs

New collections typically reach retail showrooms in about six months.

The market offers a glimpse at coming styles and trends. In fabric, look for the gray palette to grow; showrooms featured grays from light - call it a honey smoke - to dark charcoal. Many woods were weathered.

'It's almost as if furniture was exposed to the elements, then brought back in,' said Rupal Mamtani of importer Bluefish Home.

The fall market concluded last weekend. Other highlights:

Hooker Furniture, a Virginia company, introduced an innovative adjustable headboard. You can raise or lower it in 2-inch increments to complement mattress thickness, ceiling height and the scale of bedside tables and other furnishings.

The headboard will be available in four styles, two painted and two upholstered, and sell for $499 in queen size, said Hooker spokeswoman Kim Shaver.

Sam Moore, a company that Hooker recently bought, plans to offer headboards upholstered in 500 of the company's fabrics. Those headboards will be adjustable, too, and will sell for about $999.

Green - as in environmentally friendly - shapes more and more furniture styles and marketing.

Bernhardt, a Lenoir company, introduced its first eco-friendly collection called 'Cascade.' The company cut waste, used fewer volatile finishes and chose woods from sustainable sources, said LeAnna Graves, director of advertising. The 61-piece collection features rustic walnut veneers and such unusual touches as skeletal tree leaves under glass and river pebbles imbedded in table tops.

memory foams are widely used as a mattress, a pillow and some medical related cases, and also for memory foam dog bedss. Memory foam is made from polyurethane with additional chemicals that add to its viscosity level, thereby increasing its density. It is often referred to as visco-elastic polyurethane foam. Depending on the chemicals used and its overall density, it is firmer in cooler temperatures and softer in warmer environments. Higher density memory foam reacts to body heat which allows it to mould itself to the shape of a warm body within a few minutes

When we first met, he was sleeping on an air mattress on the floor of his band mate�s kitchen with the intention of eventually renting his own place. After he had overstayed that welcome, he moved into my apartment without asking, and without my really noticing. Soon I missed my solitude, the contents of my refrigerator and the money I periodically lent him (he rarely had even enough for subway fare). But I allowed him to feed his vices in my home and with my resources as long as it meant that he would allow me to feed my vice: him.

Still, I maintained enough sense to push him (though not very hard) to find his own place. And it was during this time, on an afternoon walk in my Brooklyn neighborhood, that he and I passed the dilapidated Greenpoint Hotel

Fire officials and investigators from the state Fire Marshal's Office spent yesterday combing through debris searching for clues to the cause of the blaze, which is now considered accidental. However, the cause remains undetermined, according to a news release.

A significant propane gas explosion occurred at the Mattress Factory Outlet, a mattress manufacturer and retail store that occupied the brick building on Main Street, the news release said, but investigators were unable to determine whether the propane explosion was the cause or a result of the fire. The store was heated with propane.

Firefighters received an initial report of flames shooting through the front of the building around 7:45 p.m

Queen latex mattress

The main support and comfort feel comes from the use of a blend of 9� multi-firmness 1.5 lb density foam; most futons of this quality and price-range have the same components, so nothing unusual here.

The cotton batting is pre-flattened with high pressure in the packaging process so the mattress will keep its shape and feel longer.

Finally, the tape edge closing process insures proper fit and finish of the mattress cover.

The futon mattress comes in the usual sizes; full size, queen size, twin size, chair size, full split and twin split.

The company's futon mattress is good; however, as the mattress has been designed to be mainly used as a bed, it might have been better if it had designed a mattress that incorporated springs into the mattress as with the Sealy Posturepedic Futon Mattress. There�s no denying that springs definitely add to the support, comfort and longevity of a futon mattress. However, it must be said that inner springs don�t come cheap; the Sealy Posturepedic Futon mattress is considerably more expensive that the Jamison Futon mattress.

All in all, the Jamison futon mattress is a good quality mattress in its price range and is made by one of the best, independent mattress manufacturers in the U.S

Its delimited boundaries put me in mind of one of my favourite Wordsworth sonnets, Nuns Fret Not at Their Convent's Narrow Room, which extols the paradoxically liberating power of restriction. Just as nuns are freed by the convent's constraints and poets are liberated by the sonnet's 14-line scheme, so was my mind freed - to muse, to reflect, to dream - by what at first had felt like imprisonment.

I fell in love with the essay. It was like being confined in a broken elevator for 12 hours with someone from the office whom you've always vaguely respected but never spoken to at length; discovering that you have everything in common; and realising by the time the doors slide open that you're going to spend the rest of your lives together. Once I was vertical, with a healthy baby in my arms and the freedom to choose any literary genre I pleased, I found that all I wanted to do was write more essays.

What had happened in that broken elevator - or, to return to a more conventionally romantic location, on that cosy mattress? I've already mentioned the essay's combination of limited size and unlimited perspective - the microcosm/macrocosm duality that inspired William Hazlitt's essay On Great and Little Things as well as the title of my current essay collection, At Large and At Small. I was also captivated by the inherently experimental nature of the genre. It's no accident that Montaigne, holed up in his tower in Aquitaine (a sort of 16th-century double mattress), chose to name his new literary form the essaie - in other words, an attempt or trial rather than a finished product. When he was writing about idleness, constancy, fear, friendship, pedantry, moderation, cruelty, presumption, anger, vanity, and sleep - among dozens of other subjects - he never gave the impression that he was being definitive. He was noodling around, hazarding guesses, having fun.

I'm particularly besotted with the 'familiar essay,' a genre that had its heyday in the time of Hazlitt and Charles Lamb
