We have a massive range of adjustable beds and mattresses with optional inbuilt massage systems.
Electric Bed Co has got the perfect electric adjustable bed for everyone to have the most comfortable nights sleep ever!!!
What Is An Adjustable Bed?
An adjustable bed does just that – it adjusts in the 5 key areas where customized support is needed - head, neck, spine, hips and knees. The adjustments are made with the flick of a switch so there is no need to get out of bed in order to get comfy.
You can be comfortable whether you are sitting reading or lying down to sleep and if you need to elevate your legs then simply find the setting most comfortable for you. The options for settings on an adjustable bed are almost limitless. Which means that you can find your perfect position every time.
An adjustable bed also allows you to get into and out of bed in safety and with comfort so is perfect for the elderly or infirm who might normally find getting into and out of bed more difficult.
The Benefits Of Our Electric Adjustable Beds
- You can buy whatever width electric bed suits you from 2ft 3inches to 6ft. Not only that you can choose to have separate mattresses if choosing to have a 5ft king size or 6ft super king size. This gives both of you total control over your own settings with the supplied deluxe handset.
- Adjustments are made by the remote control panel so you do not need to get out of bed to change settings.
- In many cases you can choose to have memory foam, pocket sprung, latex or reflex mattresses.
- Our electric beds come with free delivery and assembly by our organized trained team.
- Our electric beds meet the required electric and upholstery regulations set by the European and British fire standards.
- Our prices are kept affordably low as we have no expensive showrooms and staff costs – our savings are passed directly to you – Our customers.

Figure 6.
Luteolin inhibits IGF-I-induced ERK1/2 and CDC25c activation in HT-29 cells. Cells were plated and treated as described in Figure 4. Total lysates were prepared and immunoblot analyses were conducted with antibodies raised against P-ERK1/2, ERK1/2, P-CDC25c, CDC25c, or β-actin. (A) Photographs of the chemiluminescent detection of the blots, which were representative of three independent experiments, were shown. (B, C) The levels of P-ERK1/2 to its own ERK1/2 control band (B) and those of P-CDC25c to its own CDC25c control band (C) on immunoblots were quantified via densitometric scanning of the exposed films, and the control levels (0 μmol/L luteolin, without IGF-I stimulation) were set at 1. Each bar represents the mean ± SEM (n = 3). *Different from 0 μmol/L of luteolin at a stimulation time, P < 0.05.

Is FOREVER Really Our Goodbye? @TwoPeas1Pod #TeamKristen #TwilightPosted by: | Comments
In my pathetic attempt to catch up on BD2 promo, I happened upon an interview yesterday where Rob was asked, 'What happens now? What happens after forever?' Rob looked at the guy like he had three heads, chuckled in his self -deprecating way and said, 'I have no idea.' Funny pause. Smirk. Head bob. 'Yeah, I really have no idea.'
Rob, I'm right there with you.
What happens now?
The bright lights are all turned out. The wristbands have been cutoff… Well ok, I'm the loser who hasn't cut hers off. That's a proverbial umbilical cord I'm not ready to sever quite yet. Baby steps… The erotic, couture dresses and barely there pantsuit have been given back to their designers. Summit is preparing to count their millions. Rob and Kristen are off in England shopping for groceries, preparing for their life as ninjas and probably toasting that our ending, is finally their fresh start.
Rob is also probably beginning an epic experiment to see just how long he can go without shaving… I fear Mountain Man is coming…
So where does that all leave us?
Is forever really our goodbye?
I managed to sit through BD2 in the Nokia last Monday night and didn't shed too many tears. But I've seen it two times since returning home and managed to cry a little bit harder on each successive viewing. In part, because each time felt a little closer to an end.
And, each time, while the credits rolled through the entire Saga cast (goddamn you Bill Condon!) I couldn't help but scroll, in my mind, through the cast of characters I've met during this whole journey.
I'm not talking vampires and werewolves. I'm talking about you ladies. And a few special gentlemen.
It's like seeing a list of avi's and handles flash by. Along with ridiculous conversations about sex hair and eye sex and sex toys. Ok yes. We've talked a lot of sex. But it's also conversations about our kids troubles at school, a sick relative, a lost job, a new house, a cranky baby… and endless piles of fanfic.
The flashback scene we all knew Bill would try to kill us with, reminds us Kristen isn't the only girl in the room who's grown up and changed a lot these last handful of years. We've all changed and grown together. In ways big and small.
I had a shirt made to wear in Fan Camp with a back that read: '…because at some point this stopped being just a little story about some vampires and started being the story of us.'
I tried to explain that notion as I walked through camp with a group one night that included a 'friend of a friend' who was there to see what all the fuss was about. I think the sentiment of that shirt was scratching the surface with him as he walked among us, hearing all our stories, seeing us embrace one another, viewing all our tents covered in pictures that commemorated years of friendship.
"This is about way more than a cute vampire,' I told him. "We all came to this thing for different reasons, but what we found here are little pieces of ourselves we wouldn't have found anywhere else."
So if it holds true this is bigger than vampires… do things change now that the cold ones have all moved on to new feeding grounds?
I certainly don't hope for Summit to conjure up some watered down spinoff version of this whole phenom. As Kristen has said in so many interviews, it feels complete. Edward and Bella deserve that moment in the meadow. They deserve for us to leave them there. Happy. And making out like wild animals.
I'm not looking for Twilight: The Next Generation.
But the mere thought of that has me looking over my shoulder at other, older fandoms, especially the ones that have stood the test of time.
Can we be like them?
Do we want to be?
We already endure the pop culture ridicule that seems to hold hands with the word 'Twihard'. (After I help Rob find the creator of 'RPatz' I'm gunning for the creator of this label, as the term makes my skin crawl whenever I hear it.) But how does our culture's view of super fans morph even further when the object of the fan affection is something from 'the past'?
Do we feel differently today about people who dress up like Captain Kirk on weekends than people did back when the USS Enterprise made it's virgin voyage? (You know I'm sitting here trying to make my fingers do that split thing now right? I never got Star Trek…)
Once the DVD wrappers are torn away, and there's truly nothing 'new' to be had, does the fandom hit its own twilight and everything just slowly fades to black?
I know lots of people out there are already suggesting Forever is not an ending. We will have red carpets to stalk for future projects. We have a thriving fanfiction community that will keep these characters alive (and our sex lives happy). Can we survive on that?
We are essentially like Steph's vampires now. We've been living on fresh human blood for years. Feasting to the point of gluttony on The Bubble and filming leaks and movie promo tours. Now it seems we're moving in with the Cullens. Becoming 'vegetarians.' We'll have to learn to like our eyes golden and a life of never being 'fully satisfied.'
Will we like life under Carlisle's rules?
I don't know. I hope so.
I returned from LA to a family that I love more than anything else. To a husband who has humored me but is really ready to have his wife back. I'm really ready to get more than 5 hours sleep a night and jump back into my life too.
But I guess the answer to the question I've asked over and over on this page is I don't want to go back to being the woman I was before I met all of you. She was really boring. My life the last few years has been more vibrant. I want my life to include you all in some way. Maybe smaller than before. But in some way.
The front of that shirt I wore in camp said this: "One woman's dream, became a few great books, that turned into a handful of movies, that created a sisterhood, that changed our lives forever."
I don't know what tomorrow holds. But I am so very thankful for this ride. Thankful I jumped on when I did. Thankful my wonderful family has put up with it for as long as they have. Thankful for the changes it's made in my everyday life and the way I view the world and the people in it so much more openly now.
When I am old and gray and sitting in a rocking chair somewhere waiting for my own life's credits to roll by – so many of you will be included. I will look back and fondly remember endless nights spent on twitter trading Rob Porn, snot sobbing support groups reading EP, trying to stay out of jail on epic nights of Best Kisses and filming in the streets of Brazil, using the term Laters way before it was cool, huddling in dark LA parking lots at 3am, bawling the first time meeting Stephenie, taking chair dancing lessons with the DC girls in my family room, hearing catcalls and sniffles fill the Nokia when the words 'The Twilight Saga' finally faded off the screen…
Clearly my flashback scene will be longer than Bella's…
Bill Condon's brilliance flipped pages so we could see those words Stephenie chose for her own ending . '…We continued blissfully into this small but perfect piece of our forever.'
I wish there was a way to flip forward to see what lies ahead for us…
Whatever that means…

PrettySparklies Freaks the Fuck Out! NO SPOILERS! #BreakingDawn #TwilightPosted by: | Comments
So, I'm sincerely sorry for and ashamed of the weeks I've gone without posting. It's not for lack of wanting to post, but my life is just kinda shit right now and I still don't have my computer back. *grumbles*
But anyway…HOLY BREAKING DAWN PART TWO, BATMAN!! I have so much to say about the movie, but even though I've seen it 3 times already, I still have friends who haven't seen it so I'm not going to be spoiling it anytime soon. However, I will say that the 3rd time I saw the movie, it was with four people who hadn't seen the movie (and they are not as crazy as me and truly had no clue what they were in for as they are not on twitter or up with anything promo-wise) so, I really wanted to see them freak the fuck out and expected even more freakage since they are so out of the loop! But, the effin' theater was practically empty aside from us, which meant it was completely silent through the entire thing. What a TOTAL FUCKIN' LET DOWN!
I wanted to see my friends react and hear the audience react with them as I had the previous two times, but without the audience gasping and cheering, etc it really was a buzz kill for me and my friends. It makes me super sad that when it was over, they weren't nearly as excited about this final amazing and epic movie as they wanted to be!! They felt it had been really hyped up to more than it really was and wanted to know what in the hell I was going so crazy about!?!!! I was like "you were freaking the fuck out, right?" and they were like "yeah…" but they just were sitting in shock and awe as we all were but at the same time confused about the hype/let down.
But… I think I figured it out! I think you just can't watch it for the first time without a mostly full audience, so you have more of chance of people being vocal and drawing you in. Needless to say, I've been begging my friends to go back during a busy time this weekend, so they can experience it again, but with both the pleasure of watching everyone else freak the fuck out and feeling the audience participation…it's just such a better fan experience. So, if you're reading this and haven't seen it, go during a BUSY TIME so you can REALLY feel…that feeling of…FOREVER!
Stepping off that soapbox and onto another…. I've been putting together a pretty hilarious post (IMHO) about the Twi-Puppets trip to BD in LA pt 2 with @TwoPeas1pod, but before I post that one, I feel compelled to express my thoughts on the following Bill Condon interview. I was just composing my puppet post and catching up on Promo stuffs and came across this interview, bringing me to a screeching halt. At around 3:02 he says he doesn't think there will be any commentary from any of the actors. (SPOILER ALERT: you may want to skip to that part if you haven't seen the movie, some spoilery things are said in here)
WHAT THE FUCK, SUMMIT?!?! Seriously, THIS is what brings all the girls to the yard and you're going to dick us over again with no cast commentary!?! I'm FREAKING THE FUCK OUT! Someone calm me down!
Please, someone find a way to get through to Summit/Lionsgate that we live for Rob, Kristen, Taylor commentary. MAKE IT FUCKIN' HAPPEN!
PrettySparklies <3
Sorry again for the lack of posting.
And So It Begins…The Beginning of The END… #Twilight #BreakingDawnPosted by: | Comments
Wow! Just as soon as I got my computer back I found that it was still broken and have to send it back. That plus #Sandy have just made blogging just peachy.
So, I've mailed #Knitward, #Yarnella, and #KnitBlocker to @TwoPeas1Pod so she can bring them across the country for BD Pt 2 in LA! I must say, I haven't really been able to get pepped up about the finale with everything that has gone on, but mailing my little crocheted babies to TP1P sure has gotten be excited! I can't wait to hear of their adventures and hopefully some celeb pix. 😉
Another thing that got me pepped was FINALLY getting to watch the MTV First with the Twifecta and @JoshuaHorowitz. @RobstenDreams has a whole page of videos from the junket but here's the link just for the mtv first vids. The MTV First interview made me want to dance Gangnam Style (I've given folks a link that have no fucking clue what Gangnam Style is, just like me). I found another good manip of this at @RKDreaming and have to share, cuz it's Man-Nip Monday after all.
I so wish this was a gif!
So much is going to happen this week and I'll be without a computer again. GAR! Here are some of the shows you need to setup your DVR for, but please check @RobstenDreams sidebar for a constantly updated list of appearances!
- November 5– Kristen will be on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno for Breaking Dawn: Part 2.

Christina Hendricks Should Lose a Few Pounds.*
Oh wait, scratch that.
She's already hot just the way she is.
This is kind of one of those no-win topics. Undoubtedly, there will be people who love Christina, think she's sexy, beautiful and talented and share the post. There will be some who hate her, hate that we're sharing a picture of a large-breasted woman and talking about sex appeal at all and will comment with complaints either here or on Facebook. Then, there will be others who say that commenting on someone's outward appearance at all just feeds the idea that what we think about appearances matters.
In any case, here's my take on it:
Life would be pretty boring if we all looked the same.
Celebrating beauty is a good thing.
Realizing that there are many ways to be beautiful is also a good thing.
We notice each other's appearances. Deal with it.
We are spiritual beings. We are emotional beings. We are cerebral beings.
We are also sexual beings.
{and P.S. Mad Men is pretty awesome, although I also keep hearing good things about Game of Thrones. }
Fun Mad Men mashup bonus:
"Set me free why don't you, babe?"
Like elephant journal gets sexy on Facebook.

Game of Thrones is indeed very good!
props to Elisa Kreisinger @ http://popculturepirate.com/ for the brilliant social commentary!!!!!
via the remix video, of course
effing awesome
Right on! And yes Game of Thrones is worth watching for sure.
I think she is gorgeous. I imagine that she would be gorgeous no matter what her outsides look like since her self-confidence radiates and has created that glow that can tranform any "ordinary-looking" person into extraordinary. Any woman (or man, for that matter) who can readily admit, "I thought I looked beautiful. I didn't tear myself apart" is lovely in my opinion.
She is a lovely looking lady, I've never watched Mad Men because I cynically assumed (being a designer in advertising for the last 7 years) that the show wouldn't be accurate…but I should give it a shot, it's been going strong this long!
Anyhoo, I just don't like the statement she made "Sure, I'd be happier with 10 pounds off, wouldn't any woman?"
To me, this is incredibly sad and totally flies in the face of body-…scratch that, self-acceptance. If she really felt beautiful, she wouldn't have prefaced her sentence with a modifier that implies she could be happier with her body. Now I'm not faulting her or saying she has low self-esteem or anything, I don't know the lady, but this is my point: Women talk out of both sides of their mouths about body acceptance, and it stems from the insane amount of mixed messages given by the media to women regarding their bodies. ("Be sexy…but not too sexy or else you're a whore!" Oh, and "women's" magazine's hypocritial headlines right on the same cover together: "Check out this triple chocolate cake recipe…How to get a "beach body" in 10 days by eating nothing but alfalfa sprouts!" "Love yourself just the way you are—20 ways to hide cellulite from your man during sex!"…I don't think I need to go on haha)
If we, as women, become more aware about our conversations regarding weight, and body/self-acceptance, this can all change and eventually, after many years, the media will finally respond to it.
We have to stop saying shit like: "I'm beautiful…but if I was 10 pounds lighter I would be even MORE beautiful", and stop calling women skinny or fat "bitches", or saying someone ought to "get on a treadmill" or "eat a sandwich"…etc. If we keep having our conversations circling around "Oh I need to lose just 5 more pounds" or talking about how "disgusting" we feel because we indulged in a delicious treat, whatever it is. I can go on and on about this but I won't hehe.
I just think that it's so important for women to stop beating themselves up because they can't reach some imaginary universal standard that was made up in order to control and distract us. Think about it, if we're constantly obsessing about weight and our looks then we're distracted from the bigger problems facing our gender…like marginalization via media (and government) oppression. I know I sound like a total conspiracy theorist but I promise you I am not that hehe.
It's just kind of sad that famous women don't realize some of the stuff that they say only serves to depress/oppress/marginalize the women that I'm sure they intended to inspire.
excuse me I misquoted she said wouldn't "every" woman…which actually makes it worse haha.
[…] even though we intellectually know that in the grand scheme of life, it doesn't much matter whether we are a size four or 14, we drive ourselves mad and cannot even be happy when we are told that we are beautiful just the way […]
[…] I've noticed an on-going theme in several of my conversations lately—poor body image. […]
I remember the first time I came across a photograph of Christina Hendricks and was content to see a woman with a similar shape to mine considered beautiful. But then I read some backlash that Christina Hendricks is unrealistic, no woman can attain such a standard of large breasts and a perfect hourglass. Interestingly, I realized how shocked I was to hear this because I have always been bombarded with the opposite ideal: extremely thin, boyish, straight-framed etc. For me, that is unattainable and not consistent with my frame and build. In that moment it dawned on me….women are loaded down with ideal images of beauty that are always unattainable. We all fall prey to the media's interpretation of what we are not. If we are one thing, we strive to be another. It is this mindset that needs to change. Ditch the ideal and define a standard of beauty that includes an accepting image of yourself, your health, and your conception of being beautiful.
Thank you for posting her picture. I don't have time to watch TV ( I'm a nursing student), but I have heard about her online and read the chatter about her figure. When I saw her pic, I thought, FINALLY–a person in the spotlight that actually looks like ME. It made me happy.
Don't worry – she may have the perfect hourglass figure, and a lot of people may be thinking she's too good to be true, but as far as physical appearance and proportionality go, she has a small head/face for such large arms, shoulders, and breasts. She can only look completely proportional with certain hairstyles.
Beautiful? Yes, without hesitation. Perfect? No way. But so what?
Honestly, what I love is your bio!
What i find very annoying is that even people say who cares?she's beautiful the way she is…are still making a judgment about her appearance. Of course she's beautiful (according to some beauty standard) and most people would agree she has a "beautiful figure". What if she wasn't "as beautiful" (according to whatever standard of beauty). What if she had a "normal body" or didn't have curves or breasts etc etc would it still be ok? Its as if she's "allowed to have those "10 extra pounds" because she makes up for it in beauty?" Honestly, it's just exhausting.
I think the media can be blamed to a certain amount with bombardments of images, films with the 'hot girls' (boys this is what you fancy; girls look like this if you want to be fancied… Some people more susceptible than others) to brainwashing woman into 'believing' in what is the perfect woman, size thin, boyish body blah blah blah… But it's up to us to break it … I know I get suckered in … But I think more woman be proud of their bodies and not let media dictate sexy and just be sexy instead of striving to fit in a mould of media sexy (which is only after your money anyway and don't give a crap about your health) then we can stand up, look in the mirror and think… "Wait a minute, god dam I'm one sexy woman…" 😉
I have a figure just like hers. I always thought it was a beautiful shape to be in. It's hard to buy clothes however. She surely didn't get the dress she's pictured in off the rack.
She doesn't need to lose an ounce. The only reason she would 'need' to lose weight if it was for health reasons. If some smug bastard thinks she looks too big they can go take a long walk off a short pier.
