Post 4 – What is the best sleep position?

Do you sleep on your back, side, or belly? You may have a favorite sleeping position, or you may change it up now and then. And if you become pregnant, or have certain health problems, the way you sleep can sometimes change. In those cases, getting your sleeping posture right can make a big difference in the way you feel when you wake up. Are you choosing the best sleeping position for your situation?

Before the 1950s, most people believed sleep was a passive activity during which the body and brain were dormant. “But it turns out that sleep is a period during which the brain is engaged in a number of activities necessary to life—which are closely linked to quality of life,” says Johns Hopkins sleep expert and neurologist Mark Wu, M.D., Ph.D. Researchers like Wu are spending many of their waking hours trying to learn more about these processes and how they affect mental and physical health. Here is a glimpse into the powerful (often surprising) findings of sleep researchers—and what they’re still trying to discover about the science of sleep.

Post #2 Ostensibly About Drawing

Nanocomposite films at 3 wt% filler content were prepared by mixing the calculated amount of jute fibrils with 5% PLA in chloroform solution using a magnetic stirrer. The stirring was performed at room temperature for 3 h. The composite mixture was further ultrasonicated for 10 min on Bandelin ultrasonic probe mixer with 50-horn power. The final mixtures then cast on a Teflon sheet. The films were kept at room temperature for 2 days until they were completely dried and then removed from the Teflon sheet. One neat PLA film was also prepared without addition of fillers for comparison purpose [22]. It doesn’t matter how old you are, you can learn drawing and painting at any age. Of course, it’s easier to learn anything at a young age, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Research has shown that motivation is a key factor in our ability to learn new things even at an old age. On the one hand, your mind maybe isn’t as sharp as it once was ...
