im looking for some noise cancelling headphones/earbuds for sleeping.

my OH is a snorer and that limits my sleep, I have tried every type of phone earbud going but nothing drowns out the chainsaw noise next to me. My final resort is noise cancelling headphones or buds. I’ve seen sleep bands but reviews say the fall off or get too hot.

anyone else had this problem and managed to solve it? 

Every year I host a LAN party and each year it has sponsors. This year’s sponsors are

For this poster competition, I’m offering £20 to the winner to a charity of their choosing. Should you wish to enter all you must do is create a poster with images of the sponsors and their owners with the following wording

Or did i dream this ? 

I'm amazed at this. Actors have been firing guns the world over for 120 years, and for most of that period there have been people on set whose sole responsibilty it is to ensure that firearms, even fake ones, are handled safely and responsibly. The Rust armourer has already been tried and found guilty of the crime - as she should have been. She brought live ammo on to the set, and it was her responsibility above anyone else's to ensure that when a gun was put into an actor's hand, it was safe. She clearly failed in this and to put Baldwin on trial seems to me to be utterly ridiculous. Much has been made of whether or not he pulled the trigger, and this should be irrelevant. Watch any film in which anyone fires a gun - and you'd have thousands to choose from - and you'll see trigger fingers pumping. They can't NOT pull the triggers.

It will all come down to the skill of the defence and prosecution teams, and if Baldwin is found guilty it'll be interesting to hear how many actors decide to stop making action films. Maybe it'll be announced that henceforth all finger motion must be digitally created.

There's no denying it was a tragic event but Baldwin has definitely been handed the scapegoat hat. Is it a case of 'only in America' or am I just missing something?
