googletag.display("div-ad-articleLeader");First Bed In Fifteen YearsWhen my husband and I got married, we married for love not for money.  In fact, we were so in love we were happy to sleep on the floor.  Although we eventually broke down and bought a mattress and box spring, we neglected to buy bedroom furniture.  Our love and marriage produced two beautiful children, and as the years passed we lived on love with the hope that money would eventually flow into our lives.   Recently, I decided it was time to actually buy a bed.  We are now nearing our 15 year wedding anniversary, the kids have bedroom furniture, why shouldn't we  After all, we are not starving, right  We are by no means swimming in money; but we are paying the bills every month.  Maybe we can splurge a little on ourselves and buy what everyone else in America seems to have: bedroom furniture! I have been refinishing furniture here and there for almost two years.  Why not use this hobby to buy the bed I r...

An Ontario-based printing company has expanded into Hamilton with its 11th store. Reprodux, a printing, copying and management solutions company, recently opened its doors on Catherine Street North to meet the needs of its clients in Hamilton, said branch manager Jason Morse. "It was a convergence of circumstances and partly because it was good timing," he said. "We'd like to get our footprint downtown; there's some exciting things starting to happen and we felt that there's enough of a case to be here and generate some more business with clients by actually being here rather than serving it from outside." The new location aims to better provide services for its clients already in the city, as well as new clients, rather than from its Burlington branch. Reprodux is a full-service printer, but it also produces engineering graphics aimed at battery architectural, engineering, manufacturing and construction industries. It also does large format graphics,...

By Sumit Paul-Choudhury The play relies on suggestion, not shock (Image: Johan Persson)"Who are we when we live without consequences?" That's the question a detective poses angrily to the owner of the Hideaway, a virtual clubhouse catering to paedophiles in The Nether, Jennifer Haley's charged, compact play about online morality. The "Nether" of the title, a fully immersive relative of today's internet, lets them indulge in fantasies of molestation and murder – without ever meeting an actual child.To Morris, the detective, the corruption of the Hideaway's clientele is real, even if their victims are not. Yet for all the pent-up fury with which she argues her case, she cannot induce Poppa, the Hideaway's charismatic proprietor, to admit he has done anything wrong.Indeed, he insists that in his closely regulated key realm – an idyllic and stunningly realised colonial manse – customers can expend their urges entirely safely.

This Instructable will guide you through the process of designing and building a 1 kilogram sumobot. But first, a little bit of background on why I decided to write this up. I was about to repair my old sumobot for a competition when I realized that I had never made an Instructable black on how to make a sumobot. I have been quiet in Instructables for the past year, so I decided that I'd get back with this Instructable on how to build a 1KG sumobot.First off, many of you would be wondering: what is a sumobot?Basically, a sumobot is a kind of robot used in sumobot or robot-sumo competitions. As the name suggests, the goal is to push each other out of a ring, similar to sumo wrestling. The sumobot itself is designed with the sole purpose of pushing another sumobot out of the ring. The sumobot in this Instructable is 1 kilogram. There are, however, other weight classes such as 500 grams and 3 kilograms. Skills needed:Not much skills is needed for this project. Just being comfortab...

Anyone who's visited a mattress showroom knows the dizzying variety of options available: plush or firm, memory foam or innerspring, platform bed or box spring. Each store often carries mattresses with different model numbers, so apple-to-apple comparisons can be all but impossible. And, when you tally up the final cost -- including delivery and setup, box spring and bed frame, accessories like a mattress cover and vs removal of an old mattress -- it can easily stretch into the thousands of dollars. It's more than enough to keep a budget-conscious consumer up at night.Several online startups and other retailers are working to change the way we shop for zzzz's.Casper.com, for instance, sells one type of mattress (starting at $500 for a twin) and offers free shipping to the U. S. and Canada, along with a 100-night trial. If you're unhappy with the mattress during those first 100 nights, Casper will pick up the mattress at your convenience and refund your money. (Depend...

While the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive have made people sit up and take notice as to what virtual reality headsets are and what their great potential could be, with the launch of the PlayStation VR, Sony gets ready to put its headset into the ring. For the mainstream gaming audience, this will likely be the first moment they actually have metal to start thinking about buying one of these gadgets. Launching Oct. 13, the PS VR headset costs $549 in Canada. For an additional $129 you can also shell out for a pair of PS Move controllers, which allow better control in some games. The PS VR also requires a PS4 and a PS Camera to work. Sony has promised there will be 30 games available at launch, with another 20 coming by the end of 2016. For review purposes, the company sent out a sampling of 11 games including PlayStation VR Worlds , a set of games that comes with the launch bundle. Those games can also be bought separately for $39.99. They feature five experiences that show the heads...

They say a business card is "an entrepreneur's best friend," and no one wants a boring best friend. However, sometimes our friends get us into trouble — and the line between awesome and awful when it comes to business cards can be narrower than you think. If you are thinking about getting new business cards, there are many ways to be unique and attention-getting without making a scene. Here are some simple "dos and don'ts" to get you started. DO: Be Creative The cards at VistaPrint may be on sale, but creating a card that is consistent with your brand instead of using a template is the first step to standing out in the crowd. If you have more money to spend, a card that physically top illustrates your company is always an attention getter. I love this example from TAM Cargo because it is a standard size but also unforgettably clever. DON'T: Be Fleeting You want you card to get the attention of whomever you hand it to, but you also want to keep their...
