Finally, a typical Wednesday post!

Another week, another somee card. Hope you enjoy this one!

Words of wisdom from Winston Churchill

“You must sleep some time between lunch and dinner, and no half-way measures. Take off your clothes and get into bed. That’s what I always do. Don’t think you will be doing less work because you sleep during the day. That’s a foolish notion held by people who have no imagination. You will be able to accomplish more. You get two days in one-well, at least one and a half, I’m sure. When the war started, I had to sleep during the day because that was the only way I could cope with my responsibilities.”

NAP - What does it stand for?

You've got to be careful when you throw a short word around, especially when you fail to include context clues. I'm sure no one can misunderstand the point of this blog, but you never know! So I found some things on google that use the NAP acronym... which have nothing to do with actual napping.

1. www.nap.org - Nebraska Aids Project

2. www.nap.edu - The National Academies Press

3. www.newarcheryproducts.com - New Archery Products

4. www.nap.com - North American Palladium

5. www. parliamentarians.org - National Association Parliamentarians

I don't know why I thought this was so interesting. The tricks of the internet: typing in www.nap.com and getting a website that has nothing to do with napping!

Have a good weekend!

Hope the Easter Bunny brings you all sorts of candy and a well needed nap (without killing it, of course).

Wednesday's Someecard... a day late.

Somehow I always miss posting one of these... enjoy!



With summer coming up, this is so my mentality!

The Nap Map

The University of California at Davis has triggered a very unique campaign that encourages napping. 


The research, gathered  from the National College Health Assessment and a 9-question assessment called the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, is a little contradicting when it comes to the overall goal of their campaign because of "non" and "long" nappers. It showed that either people reported not napping at all or napping too long and feeling more groggy and drowsy. They didn't let that trump their idea though; they still continue promoting napping as a way to increase productivity and have aimed to promote short, and napping all together, to the two skewed groups mentioned before.

Part of their campaign is The Nap Map, an interactive section of Google maps that list the best places to nap on campus.  The picture below, located on the left hand-side of this website, gives some background info, tips and even explanations on the rankings!

Then finally, you have the actual map. Clicking on each red bed will pull up the location and information about it.

I just thought this was pretty cool! I would love to see it implemented locally or even here at UPG.

What do you think?

A little That 70's show to brighten your day

Even the best television show includes napping!
