6 Mandatory Guidelines When Storing a Mattress

You spend a lot of your time with your mattress, so when it’s time to move or go on a long trip, it’s important that you take the necessary steps to store it properly. Some people think it doesn’t matter how they transport or store their mattresses, but if you don’t take the proper care, you could end up warping or damaging it, rendering it unusable. Here are six mandatory guidelines when storing any mattress.

1. Store in a Cool, Dry Place

A temperature-controlled storage unit is the ideal place to store a mattress if you are moving, going on a trip, or simply not using the mattress anymore at this time. Damp places can cause odors to soak into the materials and damage the mattress surface. Keep it dry and cool.

2. Cover It Up

Before you move your mattress at all, clean it thoroughly with an upholstery cleaner or baking soda (just sprinkle it on, let it sit for an hour, then vacuum it up). After it is cleaned, be sure to cover it by stretching plastic over it or using sheets. Avoid storing your mattress simply as it is. Covering it up will keep out bugs, critters, and dust.

3. Stand the Mattress Up for the Short Term

If you are only storing your mattress temporarily, stand it up. This helps it to retain its shape. Storing it flat on hard ground could cause it to lose its shape thanks to the effects of gravity. Storing it up on its side is ideal.

4. Lay It Flat for the Long Term

If you will be storing the mattress for a long time, then it may be fine to store it flat—but only if you plan on setting up everything. This alleviates much of the damage and gravity effects the mattress is likely to experience in the long term. Ideally, store the mattress up on its side. If you have the space to set up your whole bed frame, then it may be okay to lay it flat on that.

5. Keep Everything Off of Your Mattress

Do not put anything on your mattress while it is in storage. This will damage it over time, and you will be left with a warped, wonky sleeping area. The only thing that should be on your mattress in storage is the protective cover.

6. Transport It Properly

Move your mattress from place to place in a covered moving truck. Transporting it on top of a car, van, or SUV is likely to lead to a warped form, damage, and strange odors. As long as you follow these six essential steps when it comes time to store your mattress, you should be able to keep it in great shape until you’re ready to use it again.

Hyrule Warriors: Legends for Nintendo 3DS

pic8

Hyrule Warriors is a fun hack and slash game, mixing the familiar game characters from the Legend of Zelda with the game play and mechanics of the Dynasty Warriors series to make a fun beat ’em up style game with the rich character design and story line of Legend of Zelda.

The story involves Link and some new friends, Lana and Sheik, helping to restore the Tri-Force and save Princess Zelda while defeating the evil Cia.  In doing this, our heroes must travel through eras in the Hyrule time line ranging from Ocarina of Time, Twilight Princess, Skyward Sword  and now Wind Waker as well.

Each level has tons of enemies to mow down using your hero, and now also allows you to switch characters on the fly so you can further develop an attack plan and strategy without leaving too much responsibility to an AI character.

Included in these tons of enemies are also big bosses who have weaknesses and special techniques in order to be defeated.  This keeps alive the puzzle solving aspect of the Legend of Zelda series.  There are tons of characters to play as in Warriors and with this new version there are five more, Tetra, King of Hyrule, Toon Link, Skull Kid and Linkle.  All of these are usable in addition to other favorites like Link and Sheik.

Hyrule Warriors is a good pick up and play game, and is a great game to play on the go or pause and come back to at a later time.  The action being intense and fun while ,still being playable by gamers of all skill sets.

Included with the 3DS game is a download code to bring the new characters now included in the 3DS version of Hyrule Warriors to the Wii U version, further expanding the fun.

Hyrule Warriors is available now for the Nintendo 3DS both in retail stores and in the eShop online for $39.99.

ZUS Smart Car Charger

We all know that all chargers for our phones are not created equal, some phones even tell us this when they are plugged in to a slower charger.  Has your phone ever told you it is trickle charging?  Ridiculousness, we have smart phones and now there is a Smart Charger for all your mobile power needs in the form of Zus.

Zus is a smart charger for your smart phone powered by your car.  It can charge two cell phones  (Android or iOS)at the same time in as little as 2 to 2 and a quarter hours.  From empty to full in no time.  Zus may sound like a great charger, but that is not its only asset.

It can also act as a car locator when you park.  Just plug in the Zus, and open up the app, available for free.  Then your parking spot will be saved and you can find it later.  This is perfect for those Summer festivals right around the corner where you leave your local neighborhood and park on side street in a suburban place, only to realize all these houses look the same on the way back when the lights are low.  (Or when you try to find your car in a theme park parking lot…oy.)

I love this feature of the charger, and it will only come in more and more helpful as the Summer months get closer.  Another safety feature is its built in ambiance lighting which is a nice touch in dark vehicles or even darker evenings out.  No longer will that dropped phone be lost until sun up.

Some of the features of this charger include:

Designed in Germany

ElegantShine™ Lighting

Smart Device Detection

Data Plan Free

Titanium Coating

12-month Warranty

Smart Car Locator

US Military Grade Quality

2x Charging Speed (4.8A)

Low Energy Bluetooth

German Bayer Material

ZUS Cooling System

Zus retails for $35.99 each and are available both on their website as well as on Amazon.

THE JUNGLE BOOK – Brand New Clip

Directed by Jon Favreau (“Iron Man”), based on Rudyard Kipling’s timeless stories and inspired by Disney’s classic animated film, “The Jungle Book” is an all-new live-action epic adventure about Mowgli (newcomer Neel Sethi), a man-cub who’s been raised by a family of wolves. But Mowgli finds he is no longer welcome in the jungle when fearsome tiger Shere Khan (voice of Idris Elba), who bears the scars of Man, promises to eliminate what he sees as a threat. Urged to abandon the only home he’s ever known, Mowgli embarks on a captivating journey of self-discovery, guided by panther-turned-stern mentor Bagheera (voice of Ben Kingsley), and the free-spirited bear Baloo (voice of Bill Murray). Along the way, Mowgli encounters jungle creatures who don’t exactly have his best interests at heart, including Kaa (voice of Scarlett Johansson), a python whose seductive voice and gaze hypnotizes the man-cub, and the smooth-talking King Louie (voice of Christopher Walken), who tries to coerce Mowgli into giving up the secret to the elusive and deadly red flower: fire. The all-star cast also includes Lupita Nyong’o as the voice of the fiercely protective mother wolf Raksha, and Giancarlo Esposito as the voice of wolf pack’s alpha male Akela. “The Jungle Book” seamlessly blends live-action with photorealistic CGI animals and environments, using up-to-the-minute technology and storytelling techniques to immerse audiences in an enchanting and lush world. The wild adventure swings into theaters in 3D on April 15, 2016.

Millions of gamers have delighted countless customers at Papa Louie’s restaurants. There have been burger joints, pizza places, and dessert shops. In Papa’s Bakeria, you can join the fun food frenzy with a plethora of tasty pies.

The latest installment in the award-winning management game series, Papa’s Bakeria is bigger and better than its predecessors. In case you’re unfamiliar with the restaurant management genre, the concept is simple: serve customers and earn tips. You might work as a greeter, server, chef, or manager. In some games, your character does it all. Developer Flipline Studios has refined and tweaked this type of gameplay over the course of 12 games in the Papa Louie series.

During your first day on the job at Whiskview Mall’s newest restaurant, you will learn how to take orders, assemble and bake a pie, and decorate the dessert with toppings. Accuracy and efficiency are essential for earning big tips. The overall goal is similar to other games, but Papa’s Bakeria offers a very in-depth experience. There are different types of crusts, fruity fillings, healthy toppings, and sugary extras. Some customers want simple pies, and others order multilayered, one-of-a-kind desserts.

After completing an order, you will be rated on every aspect of the process. Better rankings equal a bigger tip and weekly paycheck. In the end, more money equals more success. This is due to the excessive amount of upgrades you can purchase for your restaurant. The upgrade menu is filled with nearly 100 pages of boosters, alarms, furniture, and decorations to improve customers’ experiences. If those aren’t enough, you can customize your character with a different hairstyle, body type, and hundreds of facial expressions.

Papa’s Bakeria, play it here, is a fun, well-made game. Each virtual day at the restaurant goes by quickly, as you are always busy taking orders and assembling unique pies. The only potential downside is the sheer amount of available customization, which can be overwhelming to some. Additional entertainment and replay value come from the bonus mini-games, such as Burgerzilla and Slider Escape. These forays into other genres offer a totally different and welcome experience. Overall, Papa’s Bakeria is well-rounded and highly recommended.
