	Cushion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		The cushion is a very ancient article of furniture; the inventories of the contents of palaces and great houses in the early Middle Ages constantly made mention of them.
		Cushions were then often of great size, covered with leather, and firm enough to serve as a seat, but the steady tendency of all furniture has been to grow smaller with time.
		Cushions were, indeed, used as seats at all events in France and Spain at a very much later period, and in Saint-Simon's time we find that in the Spanish court they were still regarded as a peculiarly honourable substitute for a chair.

	Carpet & Rug Institute - Selecting Carpet & Rugs - Selecting Cushion/Pad
		A firm and resilient carpet cushion is necessary to form a good foundation for your carpet, increasing its comfort and extending its life, by absorbing the impact of foot traffic.
		Cushion should be selected according to the carpet manufacturer's requirements for thickness and density.
		Carpet cushion is made primarily from polyurethane foam, fiber, or rubber and is available in a variety of styles and constructions to fit your needs.

	furniture foam cushion material
		If your foam cushion material is older than about 10 years, or if it is beginning to have a "rounded" front edge, or if the seat foam doesn't offer you the support you need to feel comforatable, then you are probably ready for new foam.
		If you are replacing the foam cushions in your dining room chairs where the foam thickness is 1-2" thick a 40 lb ILD foam material may be needed to produce the same cushioning comfort as a 30 lb ILD foam material in a 4" thickness.
		Cushion wraps are a layer of material that is installed between the foam material and the fabric cover.

	Fairfield Chair [Cushion Construction] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		On both sides of the cushion core, a two ounce super soft polyester fiber crown insert is applied and then wrapped with another layer of 1.25 ounce low melt fiber.
		This cushion is favorably suited for use with heavy fabrics and leather and yet still retains a softness which may be used with any fabric.
		Since this is an all foam cushion, it has superior ability to retain its shape and size over the life of the cushion.

	Whoopee cushion -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		A whoopee cushion is an inflatable rubber pouch or bladder fashioned so that when it is squeezed, it produces a blatting or flapping noise resembling a (A cry or noise made to express displeasure or contempt) Bronx cheer or a loud (A reflex that expels intestinal gas through the anus) fart.
		It is unlikely that observers would mistake the sound of a whoopee cushion for the victim actually flatulating; much of the humor is in simply taking the victim unawares.

	Carpet Padding - Carpet cushion selection is a very important carpet buying decision.
		You may be told that a thicker carpet cushion will cause performance problems, but the primary reason for selecting thinner carpet padding is so the carpet is not so high from the floor that it will not hold on to the tack strip.
		This is a good carpet cushion, but in the past, its filler percentage was very high and the carpet padding tended to break down over the years.
		While it is recommended that you replace carpet cushion with each carpet installation, flat rubber may be the only carpet padding that could outlast the carpet and survive a second carpet installation.

	SPRIGLE et al. Describing wheelchair cushion characteristics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		For contoured cushions, loaded contour depth equals the amount of unloaded contour depth plus contour after loading in comparison with the lateral rear border; the magnitude of load depends on the size and type of the CLI and is based upon a 77-kg person.
		Cushions may be contoured to a general or nonspecific shape or custom contoured to a particular user's shape.
		Furthermore, a cushion that is bottomed-out in a typical posture could not accommodate to the slight weight shifts experienced during sitting, thus further elevating the tissue-interface pressures.

	Carpet Cushion / Carpet Pad
		Carpets installed over cushion or with attached cushion typically last much longer and are easier to maintain than carpet directly glued to the hard surface.

		Attached cushion is cushion material permanently bonded to the back of carpet and rugs by the manufacturer to provide additional dimensional stability, thickness and padding.
