Farewell, My Lovely
- Directed by Dick Richards
===Story=== Of all the Philip Marlowes, Robert Mitchum's in ''Farewell, My Lovely'' resonates most deeply. That's because this is Marlowe past his prime, and Mitchum imbues Raymond Chandler's legendary private detective with a sense of maturity as well as a melancholy spirit. And yet there's plenty of Mitchum's renowned self-deprecating humor and charismatic charm to remind us of his own iconic presence. As in the previous 1944 film version, ''Murder, My Sweet'', Marlowe searches all over L.A. for the elusive girlfriend of ex-con Moose Malloy, a lovable giant who might as well be King Kong. In typical Chandler fashion, the weary Marlowe uncovers a hotbed of lust, corruption, and betrayal. Like Malloy, he's disillusioned by it all, despite his tough exterior, and possesses a tinge of sentimentality for the good old days. About the only current dream he can hold onto is Joe DiMaggio and his fabulous hitting streak. Made in 1975, a year after ''Chinatown'' (shot by the same cinematographer, John Alonzo), ''Farewell, My Lovely'' is more straightforward and nostalgic, but still possesses a requisite hard-boiled edge, and the best kind of angst the '70s had to offer. (By the way, you'll notice Sylvester Stallone in a rather violent cameo, a year before his ''Rocky'' breakthrough.) ''--Bill Desowitz''

Skylight's 'Porgy' a homecoming for Stampley, McKinney
When the Skylight Music Theatre stages "Porgy & Bess" in May, it will be a homecoming for Broadway and London theater veteran Nathaniel Stampley, a Milwaukee native who will return here for the production.
Stampley, who will sing the role of tough guy Crown in the Skylight's production, performed in the Broadway production of "Porgy" starring Audra McDonald, which closed in September after more than 300 performances. McDonald won a Tony Award for her performance. Stampley understudied the roles of Porgy and Crown in the Broadway production, and went on a number of times as Porgy. »Read Full Article(1)
Musicians stage tribute to America's first professional composer
Even if you haven't heard of Stephen Foster, you've heard his music. "Oh! Susanna" and "Camptown Races" are among the first songs a child hears and learns. Unforgettable melodies, and their place in the public domain, ensure that they have endured, in schools, in toys, in movies and commercials, 160-plus years after Foster wrote them.
Foster is thought to have been the country's first professional composer, and his songs were immensely popular during his lifetime. But the music publishing market soured during the Civil War, and Foster died Jan. 13, 1864, at 37, struggling with a fever and a head injury in his final days, with just 38 cents in his pocket. »Read Full Article

Mark Redner Hero Story
No one says that ALS is easy to live with, but humor and hugs go a long way, says Stephani Redner, whose husband and best friend of 30 years was diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease) in August of 2008.
Armed with a shared sense of humor and a positive outlook, Stephani and Mark spend their time together focusing on the small, but significant moments that make each day worth so much more.
After serving in the Air Force from 1963 to 1967, Mark Redner worked in corporate America, where he met his wife-to-be Stephani. Together, they transitioned to the small business world, establishing a local bar and restaurant: Neighbors Bistro & Pub in Milwaukee, WI.
Years later, ALS brought the couple closer than ever, as Stephani remains by her husband's side providing assistance, emotional support and massages on a daily basis.
"[Every morning] the sunlight peeking through our window reminds us that a new day is waiting for us," says Stephani.
"Our privacy ends as our day begins, with caregivers and hoyer lifts, hygiene issues and pain from areas that used to be so strong," explains the couple.
The disease, which first attacked his left arm, has now spread to much of Mark's body, leading to the necessity of a power wheelchair.
With the help of Keith Sorensen, senior benefits advocate, and Linda Roberts, secretary, in the Paralyzed Veterans of America Milwaukee Service Office the Redners obtained their rightful benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs.
"Three months after the diagnosis, they sought us out before we even knew what we would need," recounts Stephani, "and did so with kindness, understanding and compassion."
"Keith did a fantastic job," says Mark. "He got everything done very fast and very efficiently. He's been an unbelievable help."
The benefits have helped Mark stay independent, as he was able to obtain a power wheelchair, an accessible van and monthly benefits from the Department of Veterans Affairs, which has designated ALS as a compensable illness.
In addition to the assistance provided by Paralyzed Veterans of America, the Redners are involved with clinics, support groups and the local ALS Association chapter, all of which have helped the couple cope with the challenges brought on by ALS.
"It's a terrible disease," explains Mark. "You need a lot of good people. My wife's my soul mate and she's right there all the time."
Jeremy Diamond is an International Relations & Political Science double-major at The George Washington University.

We had a very good welcoming. Marie is very nice, clean and friendly. We could go out and back like we wanted and anytime. Great location, near Lincoln Road and the beach. It was a pleasure!
First of all, my boyfriend and I had an awesome time in South Beach!!!
The location of the apartment is just perfect- the Lincoln Road Mall is right around the corner and the beach is a 15 min walk away!
All in all the apartment was just fine. The room is ok and big enough for two people! Marie was there all the time and you have to walk through the living room in order to go to the restroom.
But my boyfriend and I were out and about all the time-and for that it is great! Marie provided us with towels and beach towels and tried to help us when we had questions.
So if you are looking for a small place where you can leave your things and sleep- Go for it!
Marie was a wonderful amfitrion.
She is so nice and really clean.
And she have towels for bath and for the beaches. How cool was that surprise !!!
The place is on the best location in Miami beach.
Close to the beach, Lincoln rd, and the restaurants street market on Sunday. Definitely perfect
Fantastic location, minutes from Lincoln Road Mall, and a short distance from South Beach! Marie is very friendly and welcoming. The room is fine for your needs and a great price for location!
Best place to stay at, if you want to be right in South Beach!
Marie is an awesome host who always made me feel welcome. She is a nice person with a good heart. The room was more than i needed, big bed and lots of storage. I would always come back there.
Marie is a lovely person, she is always ready to help you and to advise!! The house is beautiful, small and colorful. It's in a in an area of south beach central but quiet! I hope one day to return to Miami and that will be back in my home !
The home is cute and the room is like in the picture and description.
The position is the best to live south beach for clubs, shopping, restaurant and beach.
Marie is very nice, helpfull and kind.
Solution absolutely recommend !!!
It was great, Marie is very nice and helps a lot. You got your own room with everything you need. On a few places you will see, the Building is a little bit older But that doesnt matter. It is so close to everything, 1 Minute zu Lincoln Rd. 10min to Ocean Drive and the beach. Its a good Place to stay, really
It was a very nice experience staying with Marie. She was very helpful with everything we asked. Though her place is really small we never felt uncomfortable or bothered. Place is clean and its very good location close to Lincoln Road Mall and also not far from Ocean Drive.

"Neccessity for First Aid KIt"
I had a dog get hit by a car years ago. I felt helpless trying to save him. I determined from that point on, I would have "battlefield triage" supplies on hand from then on. This product is a staple to my first aid emergency kit for our 150# Caucasian Ovcharka. You always work to prevent injuries, but when they occur, this product staunches the blood loss until medical aid can be obtained. It might not save the pet, but it sure gives them a better chance of survival.

I enjoy spinning, knitting, and quilting. I have a small spinner's flock consisting of 11 Shetland sheep, 3 Suri alpacas, 3 Huacaya alpacas, and 2 llamas who watch over them all.
Finding patterns for using with handspun yarns hasn't always been easy. Since I primarily use my own handspun yarns (there are exceptions...like gift giving) I started dabbling with designing my own quite some time ago. I've received so many very nice comments about my original designs that I thought I would make them available for everyone. I try to write each pattern so that it can be used whether you use a handspun yarn or commercially purchased yarn. I also try to write each pattern so they are fun to knit...not frustrating. It is my sincere hope that everyone who uses one of my patterns enjoys knitting it as much I enjoy creating it.
As for copyright...only the written instructions, photos, diagrams, charts are copyrighted. What you do with the finished item is strictly up to you. After all, you made it. =) So you can love it, sell it, give it away, or whatever else you would like to do with it.
Happy Knitting!!
Hap (warm) shawls are traditionally made for warmth and daily use. They are heavier than a traditional lace Shetland shawl. Hap shawls are square in shape. Half Hap shawls are triangular. This lovely shawl features a lace center with an old shale border and a lace edging. The shawl pictured was knitted from handspun 100% Shetland wool yarn. This half hap shawl was knitted in the traditional way. The center is knit from the bottom up, starting with a single stitch. The center grows with each row that is knitted. Stitches are then picked up along the sides for the border. Once the border is knitted additional stitches are cast on for the edging.
This pattern is 17 pages in length. It contains charts, written instructions, photos, and helpful hints/tips.
4 sts/ inch in pattern....blocked. Getting gauge is not crucial. Your shawl might be larger or smaller depending on your gauge

Made this recipe back in the 80s (found it in a magazine Land 'O Lake butter ad) and I've been using it ever since. Taste is so much better than just melting candy caramels. I dip the bottoms in chopped salted peanuts and then place the apples in cupcake papers (the foil ones). Always a hit!!
I used a 2 quart sauce pan and when the mixture started to boil it boiled over. I'll use at least a 3 quart next time. The mixture took a long time to get to 240 degrees! It did stay thin long enough to coat all 9 apples. I had enough for more apples but poured the rest on a piece of wax paper so I could have caramel instead. I had never made this type of recipe from scratch and the apples are delicious but it didn't work well for candy caramel. The apples were a hit with my three year old who body painted with the caramel apple. Thanks for sharing.
Very good recipe! First time Ive ever made homemade caramel and it was delish.

Easy Lyrics[Intro]
RIP to Eazy, I'm [?]
My bitches, they get broke it ain't no problem cause it's easy
I'm spendin' money easy, like I don't really need it
The wind blowin' through it, boy make ya look so easy
A hundred bottles easy
Rollie shinin' easy
Dollars on the dime, she gon' shake it for me easy
[Hook x2]
Ballin' like it's easy
Bugatti, Lamborghini
I throw it up, she take it all
We make this shit look easy
[Verse 1]
Fuck niggas gon' hate me but these strippers love me the most
Remember me in that old school but I pulled up in that Ghost
Only street nigga that traps shit, I jumped off of that porch
Now it's bamboo on Sunday and my nigga makin' that toast
And that rolex on glow, fifty bands I blow
You say you started off on that bottom bitch, but I really started off broke
And they prayin' all on my downfall, like "Where the fuck did he go?"
Tell 'em I'm a [?] millionaire, nigga you ain't even know it
[Verse 2]
Yo main bitch my side ho, we fuck ya bitch by 2
The whole crew done ran through
Bitch ain't shit special 'bout you
[?], that's real money we threw
Spend a hundred bands on Big K.O.D, they like what the fuck did they do
Spend a hundred bands on my crew, two seater no roof
Got a bad bitch in my passenger and I swear to god is she loose
We ridin' round with that [?], Ben Franklin that truth
My left pocket a fed case but fuck nigga need proof
[Verse 3]
Niggas watchin' my pocket, bitches all on my dick
Throw ten thousand in ten minutes, that's how you get a bitch wet
I'm ridin' 'round with that sack, that bag nigga that check
I pull up at that stop light, these hoes breakin' their necks
For a UFO or [?] gold, that's two things I ain't met
That money all on that table nigga, I roll the dice and I bet
Said scared money don't make money, you niggas ain't rich yet
And I move weight like Schwarzenegger, real nigga I flex

Bademjan - Delicious Persian Stew
Total Time
1hr 30mins
Prep 1 hr
Cook 30 mins
Bademjan means "eggplant" in Farsi (otherwise known as Persian, the language spoken Iran). This stew works fantastically with Persian rice (Polo) and is a dish which can be modified for vegetarians very easily. Such comfort food–everyone will enjoy this dish.
Ingredients Nutrition
- Peel the eggplant and cut it lengthwise in half. (Cut it in half again if you are using a large eggplant.) Lightly salt and leave it to drain in a colander for half an hour. Rinse and pat it dry with paper towel, or leave to dry it overnight. (Eggplant will 'sweat' when salted, don't be scared!).
- Fry the eggplant in oil until it is lightly colored. Remove and keep to the side.
- Put 2 tablespoons of oil in a deep pot and fry the onion, adding the meat, pepper turmeric and tomato paste. Sauté until the onion is lightly colored.
- Add water and let it simmer until the meat is tender. Add more water if its required (if the dish doesn't look liquidly then it will need more water).
- When the meat is tender, add the eggplant, sugar, lemon, and salt to taste. Let the mixture boil for another few minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.

Thank you for your service. Good that you're back!
Hope the future is a lot easier for you.
You have plenty of reason to know this better than almost anyone, but the words: I'm not so much afraid of dying as I am of not having lived, have always seemed like a pretty damn good reason not to put off whatever adventure is within my reach. I know that I'll have plenty of regrets at the end of my life. I just hope that they're the right ones.
Go for it!
Awesome thread.
You will get this done and dip your toes in that water some day soon!
Let me know if you need any help.
Our lives have lots of downs, as you say, some dreadful. Life isn't fair or equitable, it's just what it is. Happy memories of what has been. Once you work out of the down, you can look forward with hope and back with a smile, and a tear - that's ok. The bikes are just one method that can help. Get 'there' geographically as well as mentally or spiritually. Good luck with all of this.
And thanks for being so candid.
Hi there,
Wouldn't it be better to get the European headlight wiring harness, since you are going to mount the Euro headlight?
As a crescendo is a gradual increase in intensity, sounds like you are well on your way to a memorable and joyous performance indeed !
And you could not have chosen a better steed for such a great journey - enjoy the now, and happy travellin' !
You are going to love Neil Peart's book. He has a way with words that will keep you enthralled. His 'Letters to Brutus' chapters are pure poetry.
Enjoy and welcome back!
Wow. I too am thankful for your service. I am sorry for your losses, but I am encouraged by your strength and will to keep moving forward.
Your fiance has great taste in music! As big a Rush fan as I am, I still haven't read Niel's books, so let us know how they are; I've heard mixed opinions.
This is going to be a fun thread to watch!
I am inspired by your resolve. It is not how many times you fall ,but how many times you rise.
It sounds like you have saved all the essential parts - both bike and body.
Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Be smart. Ride the good path. Achieve your goal.
Bring both yourself and your machine home safely.
Your KTM is your new family. Be smart. Embrace the journey.
God bless you... thank you for your service.
We will be watching you.
On the soft bags, look into Wolfman. I've had mine for almost 3 years now and love em. I like the river-bag "tech" for making sure things stay dry. I also have the mid size duffle.
River bag tech is just my term for a rubberized bag the rolls down to close. The first time I used such a bag was on float trips. I haven't found anything better for keeping the stuff inside dry.
Thank you for your service and good luck on your journey ...
If ever your travels bring you to TN drop me a line... You have a place to stay and a free meal.
I think you will find a Spot useful for the purpose of allowing your family to know where you are at all times. The "Spot" device has a "help" button for dire emergencies.
I use Wolfman soft luggage, specifically the Expedition saddlebags and large duffel. I bought their racks, including the reinforcing bar that goes between them, so I could add Roto paks for fuel or water and they seem very sturdy, although I haven't had anything but the bags hanging off of them. I really like the Wolfman saddlebags; they roll up nice and tight and are waterproof. I don't believe that the Giant Loop is waterproof, but I may be wrong about that.
Nice! I'm from very close to there but live close to Nashville now. I used to shoot ALL the time down in Oakridge!
I'm glad you got to see how us east TN folk blow stuff up ... Boomsday is correct sir.
Be sure to give me a shout if you come through. We would love to have you! I will soon have a garage (and a guest bedroom ) and I can help with any maintenance you require... good luck my friend. I'm subscribed and I hope you get up this way sometime.
I would go with this one:
You can write on twitter or facebook.
Man it must be a small world.
I shot on the Oak Ridge High Power Rifle team for years until I went to college. My dad still shoots with them. If you shot on the USMC team back when Top Corely was running it you shot with me.
Big Ed's is still as good as ever. His son Paul was running it last I heard.

by Loves My Van from Detoit, Michigan | August 9, 2014
Twenty years, and 232,434 miles later, and it still runs great! Put the pedal to the metal, and it takes off like a rocket. I've been looking for a new vehicle for a couple of years, and nothing can compare to it. Small compared to today's vans and SUVs, but loads of cargo space. I will cry when we have to part company.

by Hit by a drunk driver from Medford, OR | January 18, 2013
I drove a rental 2012 Toyota van. Although it had a few extra bells, it still did not live up to the 1994 Dodge Grand Caravan. I owned this van for 10 years with not one problem and the van has plenty of power.

**Preview written by guest blogger Mary Sweigert**
Looking for an excuse to reuse that obnoxious holiday sweater you bought just to wear to that party 3 years ago? Here's your chance at Portland's Ugly Sweater Run. Embrace your most questionable style choices because the fun begins this Saturday at Beaverton's Griffith Park. In what promises to be a fun-heavy 5k, there's mention of cocoa aid stations, fake moustaches, and "average" holiday music, I am already appreciating the entertainment value of a race that doesn't start until 10 am.
So sleep in, style up, and meet me at a start line that's sure to look like Clark Griswold's front yard. Along with holiday spirit to spare, runners will be awarded for best, and worst, sweaters as well as the same categories in moustaches, real or fake. Bring the whole family along for the fun since kids under 8 run for free as do your canine companions. This year's supporters include Toys for Tots, so be sure to stash a toy for donation under that oh-so-festive sweater and we'll see you there!

Unheated Honda
by Bob DeP. firstname.lastname@example.com
I have a Honda accord and the last few days my heater hasn't been working. When the car sits, the temperature gauge is at normal and I get heat like normal, but once I start driving my car the temp. gauge drops to below C and loses the heat and doesn't get warm again until I let the car sit. Do you think this is the thermostat that is having problems?
Jennifer R.
It would sound like the thermostat is stuck in the open position not allowing the car to build up heat.
Good Luck!

The SME Policy Index is a benchmarking tool designed for emerging economies to assess SME policy frameworks and monitor progress in policy implementation over time. The Index has been developed by the OECD in partnership with the European Commission, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), and the European Training Foundation (ETF) in 2006.
For the Eastern Partner Countries, the assessment framework is structured around the ten principles of the Small Business Act for Europe (SBA), providing a wide-range of pro-enterprise measures to guide the design and implementation of SME policies based on good practices promoted by the EU and the OECD. It is applied to the Eastern Partner Countries for the second time since 2012.
The Index identifies strengths and weaknesses in policy design and implementation, allows for comparison across countries and measures convergence towards good practices and relevant policy standards. It aims to support governments in setting targets for SME policy development and to identify strategic priorities to further improve the business environment. It also helps to engage governments in policy dialogue and exchange good practices within the region and with OECD and EU members.
The purpose of this workshop was to share information with the Ukrainian authorities about the obligations of governments under the OECD Declaration on International Investment and Multinational Enterprises related to the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, one of four instruments of the Declaration.
This expert meeting focused on promoting a better environmental performance of SMEs in the six partner countries of EaP GREEN programme (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine). It was held on 12 February 2015 in Kiev, Ukraine.
This report examines the key policies that would increase competitiveness in the Eastern Europe and South Caucasus region through developing human capital, improving access to finance for SMEs and creating more and better investment opportunities.
Le ralentissement économique frappe durement l'industrie de la construction navale. La diminution, jusqu'à 90 %, du volume des nouvelles commandes, et l'augmentation du nombre des annulations devraient entraîner un accroissement des surcapacités dans le secteur.
The objective of this roundtable was to present main findings of the joint EC-OECD project, carried out in 2004-2006, on improving the conditions for enterprise development and the investment climate for domestic and international investors in Ukraine.
English, , 1,268kb
Ukraine has made good progress across a broad front of legal and regulatory issues concerning the general business climate, but the country still needs to address major challenges. From the perspective of investors and legal analysts, a lack in consistency and coherence of legislation can affect investment decisions. Another issue is the institutional capacity of Ukrainian authorities and the judiciary to implement the legislation.
The primary purpose of this meeting was to better assess the current situation and needs of the legal landscape with regard to business, identify priorities in the field of investment and private sector development, both domestic and foreign, and to gather experiences from various stakeholders in order to develop a set of recommendations on how to further improve the business climate in the Ukraine.

I realize this may sound delusional, but bear with me.
I'm having a hard time finding mistakes the Philadelphia 76ers made this season, both on and off the court.
Yes, I realize they went 19-63 and at one point in the season lost 26 straight games. Yes, I realize they finished with the league's worst plus/minus (minus-10.5), even worse than the Bucks. Yes, I realize the on-court product was ugly and inefficient most of the time.
But what did anyone expect?
This was the contract everyone entered into when the team traded Jrue Holiday to New Orleans on draft night and moved on from Doug Collins' antiquated techniques and vehement disgust with all things analytical. A new era of 76ers basketball was upon us, and it was made clear that there were going to be bumps in the road.
There were a few pleasant surprises along the way. Michael Carter-Williams, the 11th pick in last year's draft, is the front-runner for NBA Rookie of the Year. He won Rookie of the Month four times. There are only two players in the NBA this season who averaged at least 16 points, six rebounds and six assists: Carter-Williams and LeBron James.
Just ignore his shot chart for a second and let that sink in.
Tony Wroten proved he deserves to be on the roster next year. Henry Sims came out of nowhere and showed flashes. Nerlens Noel recovered from his ACL injury and is ready to compete for next year's Rookie of the Year.
That brings us to this year's draft—the moment we've all been waiting for—where the 76ers have two lottery picks at their disposal. That's two more talented pieces to add to the Carter-Williams/Noel nucleus.
Do you see how people in Philadelphia are actually looking forward to the 76ers' future now?
It may be difficult to sell that message to season-ticket holders who spent their money on a 19-win team, but you would be hard-pressed to find one who doesn't think this season was a necessary sacrifice. This organization is trying to build a winner for the long haul, it isn't trying to sneak into the eighth seed and get swept by whatever team LeBron is on for the next five seasons.
The city has bought in.
76ers owner Josh Harris said last week that this season was a success, and frankly, I would have to agree.
That being said, there's a few things that could have made one of the wackiest and free-wheeling seasons in 76ers history even better.

Practice Area: DUI and DWI
Outcome: OWI Charge Dismissed.
Description: The Iowa Supreme Court found that the implied consent advisory read to individuals that possessed a commercial drivers license but who were arrested for OWI while driving a non commercial motor vehicle was innaccurate and misleading and thus, violated the defendant's right to due process of law. Resulted in the charges against Mr. Massengale being dismissed and a new law being passed requiring an individual being arrested for OWI while operating a private motor vehicle to be accurately informed of his/her pending decision's consequences on his/her commercial driving privileges.

Finding the perfect hotel for your vacation or business travel can be a challenge. This challenge has been lessened to some degree thanks to the Internet. An individual can use a personalized hotel search engine to find the right hotel for them. Still, there are certain things about a hotel that an individual will not be able to know until they actually set foot in the hotel room. One of these things is whether or not to the hotel has bedbugs.
Searching for Bedbugs before Choosing to Stay
Before agreeing to stay in a hotel for an extended period of time, it is a good idea to take a few minutes to inspect the room for bedbugs. It is recommended that prior to making an inspection of the room, a person leave their luggage outside of the room with the bellhop. This way, if they do walk into the room and they see that it is full of bedbugs, they do not risk having bedbugs crawling into their belongings and traveling to the next hotel with them.
Searching for bedbugs can be a challenge because they are small insects that like to hide during the day. It may be necessary for an individual to carry a flashlight with them and use the flashlight to search for bedbugs in the cracks and crevices of the room. Finding bedbugs will require some work, but avoiding a room infested with bedbugs makes the effort more than worth it.
What do Bedbugs Look like?
Most adult bedbugs are going to have an oval shape and are going to be brown or dark red. Bedbugs live together in groups. If one bedbug is present in a hotel room, it is likely that there is a whole slew of them hiding around. Younger bedbugs may be lighter than their adult counterparts. A good way to identify if bedbugs are in the hotel room is by looking for black spots or the excrement of bedbugs. Bedbugs will also shed their skin, so an individual might find brown skin casings in a hotel room that is infected.
Where to Begin the Bedbugs Search
As their name suggests, bedbugs live in beds. So it is a good idea to start the search off by looking in the bed, searching through the linen and looking in the ruffles along the side of the bed. A thorough inspection is necessary. It may require an individual to actually pull back the sheets and to check the mattress. It may also be a good idea to lift up the mattress and look at the box spring.
Once the mattress has been thoroughly checked, it is a good idea to move on to any other furniture that is in the room. For the most part, bedbugs will live in or around the bed. Also, search picture frames and other items that are around the bed as these are the perfect home for bedbugs.

What's a soundbase? Well, it's like a soundbar - and is clearly piggy-backing on the popularity of that product category - but rather than sitting in front of your TV, a soundbase sits directly underneath your TV.
So, if space is at a serious premium around your television, then a soundbase might make more sense for you than a soundbar. And the end result is still the same: a cost-effective upgrade to your TV's sound quality.
The market has flourished in the last year, but when it comes to choosing which one is best for you, you don't have to go in blind. We've picked out the best budget and premium soundbases on the shop shelves...

Tested at £250
Cambridge Audio entered the soundbase market last year with its TV2, and it went on to win an Award. And now we have a larger version, the TV5.
The British company promised a 'step up in size and sound' with the TV5 - and it does exactly what it sets out to do, delivering greater scale and an increased sense of power than its smaller sibling.
Should you buy the TV5 over the TV2? If you have the space and extra cash, then sure.
Tested at £330
Canton has a great record with soundbases. Its DM 50 and larger DM 75 got the full five stars for their excellent sound and ease of use.
With the new DM55, Canton hasn't made any drastic changes, but the addition of a glass top, some sonic tweaks and a price drop (from £400) make it an even more appealing proposition than before.
It's a classier-looking thing altogether, and its meaty-yet-subtle sound will prove a huge audio upgrade for your TV.
MORE: Canton DM 55 review
Tested at £550
You might think this premium soundbase is a little pricey (it's certainly one of the biggest-ticket 'bases we've reviewed), but trust us every penny of the Geneva's asking price is accounted for.
The build quality is a notch above some of its cheaper rivals too, with its smooth metallic finish (in black or white) and matching metal front grille. Even the remote is stylish, and the handy LCD display is yet another bonus.
If your budget can stretch, here's where to spend it.

We all know that NASCAR runs on corporate sponsorship. Corporate sponsors know that choosing the right driver to endorse their product can make all the difference in the eyes of the fans (and potential consumers).
Often times, it can be difficult to find the proper balance between on-track performance and off-track marketability; sponsors would prefer not to sacrifice one for the other.
The best, and often longest lasting, combinations of driver and sponsor occur when the driver can convincingly identify with the brand he is promoting. The driver can embody the traits of the brand in his driving, have some sort of history with it, or simply reach the right demographic of people to forge this connection.
From risk-takers hooking up with an energy drink company to a good ol' boy pitching beer, here are ten of the best driver and sponsor combinations in the sport over the past decade.

AutoCAD drawings can contain several layouts. This means we have complete control over how or how much of our model space geometry that we plot. Since we can have multiple layouts, let's look at how we can organize the layouts in a drawing. On my screen I have an architectural example. this is a drawing of a proposed medical office. Take a look at my Layout tabs. Notice that I have already copied a layout into this drawing and if I select the layout, you can see that I have set my geometry to a scale and I filled out the rest of the title block information.
So essentially, this layout is finished. Well, except for the name, I call this sheet OV1, so I'd like to rename the Layout tab as well. To do that, I will double-click on the tab name. I will call this OV1 and I will press Enter. Notice that I also have two other layouts in this file. You can have as many layouts as you want in your drawing. If you have several layouts and you don't like the way the tabs are arranged, you can click, drag and release the tabs to change their order.
Now, these two generic tabs are currently unused, so I'd like to delete them. To delete a layout, you can right-click on the tab name, and select Delete from the menu and you'll get a warning saying, hey, you are trying to delete the layout. do you want to do this? Yes, I do. I will click OK. I am going to do the same thing to delete Layout2. No sense keeping layouts that we are not using. Now, maybe I'd like to create a new layout similar to this one, and maybe I'd like to use this layout to focus on one of the Exam Rooms.
I will start by creating a copy of this layout. To do that, I will click and drag on this tab name, and then I will hold my Ctrl key and I will release my mouse button. If I select this tab, you can see it's an exact duplicate of the original layout. From here, I will change the scale of this Viewport to focus on this Exam Room. I will start by opening the Layer Control and I will turn the Viewport layer on. Then, I will double-click in the Viewport, I will come down, and unlock it, and I will pan this over to center the Exam Room inside the Viewport.
Now, I will change the scale. Let's try 3/8 = 1'-0. That's not bad. I think I can go larger. I am going to try 1/2 = 1'-0. that looks like it will work well. I am going to re-center this and then I will immediately come back down and lock the Viewport. Now that I am finished, I am going to jump out of the Viewport by double-clicking outside the boundary. As I look at this, take a look at some of this extraneous geometry that we are seeing outside the room.
Remember that a Viewport is a window into model space. Watch this, if I select the Viewport boundary, I can adjust its size using these grips. I will click this grip, and I will pull it up to here. Now, I am being mindful of my running object snaps. In fact, I am going to turn t hose off momentarily. I will pull the Viewport corner up to here, and then I will grab this corner, and I will pull it down to here. When I am finished, I will press Esc. By adjusting my Viewport boundary, I was able to focus on exactly the geometry that I wanted to see.
Let's turn the Viewport Layer back off, and now I need to take care of some housekeeping, let's revise some of this title block text. First of all I will change the scale, this is 1/2 = 1'-0. We will call this drawing ER1. This is going to be sheet 2 of 2 and I will call this TYPICAL EXAM ROOM.
Finally, I will do a Zoom Extents and let's rename this layout tab. I am going to double-click and I will change this to ER1. Using these layouts, I am able to take my model space geometry and create two separate plots. AutoCAD drawings can support an unlimited number of layouts. With a little organization, we can take the same model space geometry and plot it any number of ways.
- Understanding model space
- Working in a multiple-document environment
- Organizing drawings using layers

- Configuring units for architectural, civil, or metric work
- Incorporating blocks (symbols) into a working file

5:30pm - That concludes our live blogging for the day. We'll be back tomorrow with updates on six LV= County Championship fixtures.
5:21pm - RESULT! Somerset (154/4) beat Northants Steelbacks (152/7) by six wickets at Taunton - Marcus Trescothick's men ultimately canter home with seven balls to spare, thanks largely to Petersen's unbeaten 64 from just 35 deliveries.
5:19pm - They are certainly favourites now. Back-to-back fours from Petersen mean Somerset need eight from nine deliveries.
5:14pm - Petersen moves to 50 from 29 balls and Somerset look favourites now...
5:12pm - RESULT! Worcestershire Royals (120/5) beat Gloucestershire Gladiators (119/9) by five wickets at New Road - Kervezee finishes unbeaten on 42 and Ben Cox 17 as Worcestershire ease home.
5:11pm - The equation at Somerset is down to 27 from three overs.
5:05pm - Petersen is stepping on the gas to keep Somerset very much in the hunt. James Hildreth is run out, but 45 in 30 balls is well within the Taunton hosts' sights as Jos Buttler walks to the crease.
Worcestershire will be grateful for the efforts of Kervezee, who has anchored the chase well at New Road.
4:58pm - Trego is out, lbw to Graeme White.
4:56pm - RESULT! Middlesex Panthers (142/1) defeat Kent Spitfires (140/6) by nine wickets at Uxbridge - Middlesex somehow record a win that is even more convincing than the triumphs secured by Notts Outlaws and Glamorgan yesterday. Rossington was the star, while Dawid Malan and Joe Denly contributed unbeaten scores of 31 and 33 as Kent's 140 was overhauled in 15.4 overs.
Somerset now need 65 from 42, Alviro Petersen having settled in alongside Peter Trego, who has 40.
Gloucestershire's Tom Smith gets rid of Gareth Andrew, meaning Worcestershire are 93 for five, 27 shy of their target.
4:50pm - Andre Russell is run out but Worcestershire, now four down, need just 35 with more than 10 overs still remaining.
Middlesex are almost home.
4:46pm - Worcestershire and Middlesex are both firmly on course to win, while Somerset need to pick up the pace at Taunton.
At the halfway mark Somerset are 60 for 2 needing 92 more runs #GoSteelbacks
— Northants Cricket (@NorthantsCCC) July 7, 2013
4:39pm - Rossington finally falls to James Tredwell, having cracked a career-best 74 at two-a-ball to all but guarantee Middlesex will win.
Somerset are 50 for two now, David Willey following up his fine batting performance with the wicket of Craig Kieswetter.
4:36pm - Gloucestershire are not giving up. Chris Dent responds to successive fours from Daryl Mitchell by bowling the Royals skipper for nine.
Middlesex are 89 without loss after nine overs.
At Taunton, Somerset have moved on to 48 for one and require 105 from 12 overs.
4:32pm - RESULT! Lancashire Lightning (155/4) beat Leicestershire Foxes (151/7) by four runs at Emirates Old Trafford - Smith's stunning 84 proves in vain as Lancashire finish strongly with the ball to claim a slender win. Michael Thornely hit a six with 11 needed off two, but could not repeat the trick.
Rossington brings up a 28-ball fifty at Uxbridge with his seventh four, moments after striking a third six. Middlesex are already more than halfway to their target of 141 and only eight overs have been bowled!
Moeen falls for 22, but Worcestershire can take their time from here on in.
4:26pm - The experienced Kabir strikes again with the scalp of Rob Taylor and Leicestershire require 16 from the last over.
4:22pm - Kabir claims a potentially huge wicket for Lancashire, ousting Smith for 84!
Rossington's fun continues with a maximum off Matt Coles and Worcestershire's second-wicket pair - Alexei Kervezee and Moeen Ali - are enjoying similar success to make Gloucestershire's 119 for nine appear increasingly inadequate.
4:20pm - Rossington takes Darren Stevens for four fours in five balls as Middlesex move to 45 without loss in five overs.
Leicestershire's target is down to 21 from 12.
Worcestershire and Somerset have recovered well from their early setbacks.
4:15pm - Smith's highest T20 score this morning was 67. He's 83 not out right now, but Boyce has departed with 29 needed from three overs.
The England squad for the Women's Ashes has been named. You can read all about it here.
4:09pm - Matthew Boyce is Smith's current partner. With four overs remaining, the visitors to Emirates Old Trafford require 38. It's anyone's game.
Adam Rossington is tucking into Vernon Philander at Uxbridge, while Worcestershire have suffered an early setback, Thilan Samaraweera registering a duck.
4:05pm - The Panthers are swiftly into double figures, but Somerset's bid to hunt down 153 has not started well...
Uh oh. 0-1 as @Trescricket is caught for 0 off Willey
— Somerset Cricket (@SomersetCCC) July 7, 2013
4:03pm - Smith clears the ropes for the second time and then collects another maximum! He now has 71 and Leicestershire's target is down to 49 from 32 balls.
Middlesex and Somerset have started their respective chases.
3:57pm - A productive last over enables Gloucestershire to post 119 for nine.
Leicestershire need 70 off 43, with Smith the key man. Parry has 1-12 from three.
3:51pm - Ben Duckett takes 10 from the final two deliveries of the Steelbacks' innings to lift his side to 152 for seven.
Kent finish on 140 for six at Uxbridge.
Gloucestershire are 108 for nine with one over remaining.
FIFTY! 30-ball half-century for Smith as Foxes 77-3 after 10.3
— Leicestershire CCC (@leicsccc) July 7, 2013
3:45pm - Willey is caught behind off Arafat for 47, having boosted Northants' total with four fours and two sixes.
The match at Emirates Old Trafford is intriguingly poised. Shakib's exit, induced by Stephen Parry, leaves Leicestershire 70 for three in the 10th.
3:38pm - Thomas accounts for Spriegel in the 18th over at Taunton with 120 on the board.
Kent are 116 for six with 14 balls to come, while Leicestershire ended their powerplay on 49 for two. Can the Lancashire spinners replicate the success of Jigar Naik and Shakib Al Hasan?
3:32pm - Look away now Gloucestershire fans - your team is 80 for seven.
David Willey and Spriegel have shared a valuable fifty stand at Taunton, with the former proving particularly destructive.
McClenaghan gives up 15 in his second over, but is able to celebrate the wicket of Burns.
3:28pm - Gloucestershire's unsteady progress continues. Moeen has Dan Christian caught behind for 15 before Alex Gidman is lbw to Daryl Mitchell to leave the score reading 76 for six.
Roland-Jones does for Geraint Jones at Uxbridge and Kent subsequently pass 100 in the 15th over for the loss of five wickets.
Greg Smith and Joe Burns have started to pepper the boundaries at Emirates Durham ICG, providing the Foxes with a welcome boost.
3:20pm - Leicestershire's pursuit of 156 starts poorly as Josh Cobb falls to Mitchell McClenaghan in the second over.
Kent, Northants and Gloucestershire need to keep wickets in hand now as they approach the closing overs of their respective innings.
Steelbacks batsman Matthew Spriegel has been dropped by Meschede.
3:13pm - You generally need plenty of runs on the board at Taunton, but Northants are now 65 for four after Kirby picks up the wicket of Coetzer.
Batsmen are also struggling at New Road, where Gloucestershire have slumped to 50 for four.
3:07pm - Just when things were threatening to get a little out of hand for Middlesex, Ravi Patel gets rid of Stevens, who smashed 25 off 15 balls. Billings goes in the next over for 22, caught behind off Neil Dexter.
Northants have lost a third batsman at Taunton, Alex Wakely departing for 10.
Gloucestershire are also three down, for 46, following Moeen Ali's dismissal of Hamish Marshall.
2:59pm - Katich finishes unbeaten on 62, the key contribution to Lancashire's 155 for four.
FINAL SCORE: Lancs 155-4 as Taylor bowls a brilliant last over. Only five off it - how important could that prove to be?
— Leicestershire CCC (@leicsccc) July 7, 2013
Darren Stevens and Sam Billings are building a useful partnership and lifting the tempo for Kent.
Somerset will be happy with their efforts thus far; Craig Meschede gets rid of Cameron White and Northants are 34 for two in the seventh.
2:53pm - Well, Gloucestershire were flying. They have now lost Klinger and Chris Dent in the space of two balls from Jack Shantry.
2:51pm - Katich pulls Cobb for six to bring up a 38-ball fifty. Lancs have 138 on the board with two overs remaining.
Gloucestershire are flying early on at New Road, but Kent are finding runs much harder to come by at present.
2:47pm - One thing is for sure, there will be some warm fielders today!
After nine dots, Arafat is taken for back-to-back boundaries by Kyle Coetzer, who then collects a third four with a Chinese cut off Steve Kirby.
Anthony Ireland has Lancashire's Croft caught off a top-edge, while Kyle Mills gets rid of Sam Northeast to leave Kent 16 for two.
Michael Klinger has started strongly for Gloucestershire.
Just one boundary in last 5 overs as Leics have dragged this one back well, spin the key. Lancs 117-3 after 16 overs-Ireland returns to bowl
— Lancashire CCC (@LancsCCC) July 7, 2013
2:40pm - Naik completes a return of 0-19 from four, before Steven Croft finally finds the boundary off Shakib.
Two fours from Richard Levi get Northants going, but the South African then falls to countryman Alfonso Thomas.
Kent also lose an early wicket as Toby Roland-Jones ousts Rob Key for seven, while Gloucestershire have just started their innings at New Road.
2:33pm - Off-spinner Naik completes a third boundary-free over, an excellent effort in this form of the game, before Shakib concedes just one in the next set of six.
Yasir Arafat proves even more economical at Taunton as he starts with a maiden for Somerset!
2:26pm - Lancashire reach halfway on 80 for three as the visiting spinners continue to flourish, while the games at Uxbridge and Taunton are about to get under way.
2:21pm - Jigar Naik tightens things up for Leicestershire before another spinner, Shakib Al Hasan, follows up three dot-balls by having Brown stumped.
2:15pm - Taylor's second over goes for 15 and it would appear Brown is keen to make amends for his role in Moore's exit.
WOW! Brown has launched Taylor on to the back tier of the top deck of the new stand near the tram station. That was a big hit! 69-2 (6.4ov)
— Lancashire CCC (@LancsCCC) July 7, 2013
2:12pm - Moore has also departed, run out for 26 following a mix-up with Karl Brown, who now has Simon Katich for company. Lancashire end the powerplay on 54 for two.
In the fourth and final game of the day, Gloucestershire win the toss and choose to bat against Worcestershire.
2:05pm - Leicestershire make a much-needed breakthrough, with the score on 45 in the fifth over, as Smith is caught at midwicket off Rob Taylor.
Meanwhile, Middlesex have elected to field at Uxbridge and Northamptonshire will bat after winning the toss at Taunton.
2:03pm - As the runs keep on coming for the Lightning, here is some wise advice from Somerset...
A bit and health and safety advice.... Please don't forget to slip, slap, slop as it is properly hot today and drink plenty of water too
— Somerset Cricket (@SomersetCCC) July 7, 2013
1:58pm - The next two overs at Emirates Old Trafford also yield 10. Lancashire are rattling along, Tom Smith and Stephen Moore having struck five fours between them.
1:49pm - Leicestershire skipper Josh Cobb gets us started in Manchester with an over of off-spin. He may regret the decision as Lancashire pick up 10 runs.
1:32pm - Yesterday there were convincing victories for Notts Outlaws and Glamorgan, the respective leaders of the North and Midlands/Wales/West Groups.
While we wait for today's matches to begin, why not take a look at David Hussey's reaction to Notts' triumph at the Emirates Durham ICG.
1:25pm - Lancashire have opted to set a target after winning the toss on familiar soil. Steven Croft will captain the Lightning in Glen Chapple's absence, while Jigar Naik has been brought in to the visiting line-up.
1:15pm - Good afternoon and welcome to ecb.co.uk's live coverage of today's Friends Life t20 action.
There are four games taking place on a glorious afternoon:
Lancashire Lightning v Leicestershire Foxes (Emirates Old Trafford, 1:45pm start)
Middlesex Panthers v Kent Spitfires (Uxbridge, 2:30pm)
Somerset v Northants Steelbacks (Taunton, 2:30pm)
Worcestershire Royals v Gloucestershire Gladiators (New Road, 2:40pm)

Duane Benton, 40, of Clarkston is accused of possessing gambling records. That's a misdemeanor crime with a punishment of up to a year in prison and up to a $5,000 fine.
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Curt Liedkie said Benton is accused of organizing a betting pool on the Super Bowl game with a buy-in of $100 and a pay out of $10,000.
"It didn't appear to be administered in a corrupt fashion," said Liedkie. "We felt that the gross misdemeanor charge was appropriate and adequately described the individual's involvement."
In the State of Washington, a one-hundred-square sports board and up to a dollar-per-square is legal, but in this case squares are believed to have been sold for $100 a-piece.
