How to feel refreshed even after too little sleep - and why you MUST have an afternoon nap. Never wake up tired again Secret to waking up refreshed is to work out your sleep in 90 minute cyclesNapping will improve your memory, reaction time, and productivityProfessor Richard Wiseman says napping 'may even save your life'PLUS: How to stop snoring forever! By Professor Richard Wiseman Published: 23:43 BST, 23 March 2014 | Updated: 12:31 BST, 24 March 2014 If you follow Professor Richard Wiseman's tips, you could become a 'super sleeper' and never wake up tired again Insomnia is the modern malaise. We are now living in a world that never sleeps. In the 1980s, a scientist from the University of Chicago conducted perhaps the best-known, and most disturbing, study into the topic. He and his colleagues wired up a group of rats to a machine that measured their brain activity, and then placed each of the animals on a stationary disc above a bowl of water. After a month, all of them had died, thus proving that sleep is essential for life. Scroll down for video Avoid the temptation. Here’s a simple table to guide you:
The Munger Operating System: A Life That Really Works In 2007, Charlie Munger gave the commencement address at USC Law School, opening his speech by saying, “Well, no doubt many of you are wondering why the speaker is so old. Well, the answer is obvious: He hasn’t died yet.” Fortunately for us, Munger has kept on ticking. The commencement speech is an excellent response to the Big Question: How do we live a life that really works? It has so many of Munger’s core ideas that we think the speech represents the Munger Operating System for life. To get what you want, deserve what you want. It’s such a simple idea. Learn to love and admire the right people, alive or dead. A second idea that I got very early was that there is no love that’s so right as admiration-based love, and that love should include the instructive dead. Acquiring wisdom is a moral duty as well as a practical one. And there’s a corollary to that proposition which is very important. Learn to fluency the big multidisciplinary ideas of the world and use them regularly. Be reliable.

Top 10 Ways to Perfect Your Daily Routine with the Power of Science Cámaras de vigilancia Occasional Address Hi. I gave an “occasional address” for a graduation ceremony at my old Uni, The University of Western Australia. Here is the video. The text is below. “In darker days, I did a corporate gig at a conference for this big company who made and sold accounting software. And if the mountain was meant to be a symbol of life’s challenges, and the loss of limbs a metaphor for sacrifice, the software guy’s not going to get it, is he? However, I have had large groups of people listening to what I say for quite a few years now, and it’s given me an inflated sense of self-importance. You might find some of this stuff inspiring, you will find some of it boring, and you will definitely forget all of it within a week. So listen up, or you’ll get lost, like a blind man clapping in a pharmacy trying to echo-locate the contact lens fluid. Here we go: 1. I never really had one of these big dreams. 2. 3. Empathy is intuitive, but is also something you can work on, intellectually. 4. But don’t despair! 5. 6.

The Science Behind Why We Procrastinate 10 películas anarquistas imperdibles El anarquismo suele ser pensado como una postura que aboga por el caos, la destrucción y el sinsentido, acusaciones infundadas, pues se trata precisamente de lo contrario. Esta postura cuestiona muchas de las convenciones sociopolíticas actuales como las jerarquías de mando, las democracias representativas, la existencia del aparato estatal, policíaco y militar; en síntesis, esta perspectiva defiende la libertad del individuo por encima de cualquier autoridad. El pensamiento necesario para imaginar un mundo en el que cada uno respete y conviva con la libertad del otro ha crecido por varias ramas; pocas doctrinas o movimientos han provocado una gama de posturas tan amplia. Su objetivo es caminar hacia una sociedad sin amos ni soberanos. Cero en conducta (Jean Vigo, Francia, 1933) Luego de regresar de unas vacaciones de verano, un grupo de niños burlará todo intento de ser disciplinados por los ineptos adultos que los rodean; simplemente un clásico. ¡Viva Zapata!

zen habits Maryland Fusion Center Implications of Death of Osama bin Laden (U) Possible Implications for Maryland Regarding the Death of Usama Bin Laden 1 pageFor Official Use OnlyMay 3, 2011 (U//FOUO) The Intelligence Community (IC) assesses the death of al-Qa’ida (AQ) leader Usama Bin Laden could result in retaliatory attacks in the Homeland and against U.S. and Western interests overseas. Attacks might originate with AQ Core elements in the Tribal Areas of Pakistan, with one of their affiliates overseas, and/or with individuals in the Homeland sympathetic to the cause but lacking a formal group association. We have no indications of advanced AQ Core plotting efforts in the Homeland, but the case of now-detained AQ operative Najibullah Zazi—who, along with two associates, planned to attack New York City subway in 2009 using homemade explosives— demonstrates that unidentified operatives could advance plotting in the Homeland.
