 We want to show that $\bc_*(S^1)$ is homotopy equivalent to the
 Hochschild complex of $C$.
-Note that both complexes are free (and hence projective), so it suffices to show that they
-are quasi-isomorphic.
 In order to prove this we will need to extend the 
 definition of the blob complex to allow points to also
 be labeled by elements of $C$-$C$-bimodules.

 Fix points $p_1, \ldots, p_k \in S^1$ and $C$-$C$-bimodules $M_1, \ldots M_k$.
 We define a blob-like complex $K_*(S^1, (p_i), (M_i))$.

-other points.

 The blob twig labels lie in kernels of evaluation maps.
-(The range of these evaluation maps is a tensor product (over $C$) of $M_i$'s.)

 Let $K_*(M) = K_*(S^1, (*), (M))$, where $* \in S^1$ is some standard base point.
 In other words, fields for $K_*(M)$ have an element of $M$ at the fixed point $*$
 and elements of $C$ at variable other points.

 We'll first recall why these properties are characteristic.

 \subsection{The $n{+}1$-category of sphere modules}
+\label{ssec:spherecat}
 
 In this subsection we define an $n{+}1$-category $\cS$ of ``sphere modules" 
 whose objects correspond to $n$-categories.
