how to make best of limited sleep?

any tips?
i usually get only 6 hours of sleep.. i end up tired and drained ...
anyone has good tips on how can we maximise this 6 hours instead

Not sure what is your question, but if you want to know how to sleep beeter, I recommend this:
Before go to bed:
- Have a tea of letucce, lettuce has properties that help you sleep better
- Do not sleep thinking on work or any other disturbing stuff, try to get your mind relaxed (A meditation can help)
- put some relaxin music for 30 min
- And if you can increase to 8hr for sleeping
It works for me
Cheers,

Clonazepam!

Polyphasic sleep
I almost never sleep more than 6 hours. On 4 hours I'm still fine, but my skin suffers badly.
This guy is a bit crazy:
http://dustincurtis.com/sleep.html
There was also a drug discussed recently on TV, can't remember the name, that permits no sleep at all ad infinitum, (but with short naps). I could do with some of that.

You're talking about Modafinil.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modafinil
You'll probably find that having a 15-30 minute nap in the middle or late afternoon means you feel that bit better through the evening and don't need to sleep as long through the night. In effect, you're making your 6 hours more worthwhile if you have an afternoon nap or siesta.

@ZenithUK that's the one. If you've got some, send em over
To juxtapose Lily Allen: "I like sex, not so keen on drugs anymore, fame is something that really confuses me". Looks like I'm going without 1 and 3, so 2 will have to do!

i used to sleep very little
i thought the best way to defeat this was to sleep little and take pro plus
but after a while pro plus isnt as powerful
so i got myself sacked ha ha
there no way id work 67 hours a week again for anything less that 500 a week

@-PiLoT-: I was talking to a taxi driver in London recently, and that guy makes more on Friday and Saturday then I make all through the week. And it's all cash, ie no tax...
Thank goodness he was ugly, or I would have felt really bad

PS yes, I'm making myself feel better. I'm uglier..

LOL SLEEP SLEEP
hahhaaa
i dont smoke.. dont drink.. used too for both but not any more..
i am 28 .. i get about 6 hours a day.. but am VERY tired..
i dont know y man

dont you think 6 hrs is quite good??
i generally manage 3-4 hrs on weekdays max 5 hrs
and 8-9 hrs on weekends (busy schedule of a student LOL)
and i am quite happy with it
dont feel tired
dont take any drugs for sleep etc
maybe you should try YOGA or some form of meditation (i prefer meditation and daily workout of 1-2 hrs)
also i had a book called "the silva method of mind control" by jose silva
it helps a lot to improve your meditating capabilities and concentration

If you have insomnia just get a base ball bat and bash your head until you fall unconscious.
Hope you try this.
Good luck, and have a good sleep.

Honestly, I only get 4-6 hours a night, it depends on when I go to sleep. I have been programmed through work to get up by 6am, so my sleep depends on when I got to bed. A beautiful woman in your bed wanting to have relations helps...

increase you exercise/sporting activities! you will sleep deeper! i have noticed this on my self

i will try... work is tough ..

For me, 6 hours is good.

mikechannon said:
Just saw some research that says those that get 4 to 6 hors sleep live longer than those that get 8 or more hours.
However, if you are constantly tired for no obvious reason - then see your doctor, there could be all sorts of reaesons for it from depression, stress to thyroid problems. I'd suggest you don't google causes because you'll end up thinking you've got every problem under the sun!! If the doctor feels there is cause for concern then they'll do blood tests and such and find out any underlying physical cause. Never ignore persistent problems.

This site is the reason I'm constantly tired
Dave

i got hard sleeping problems, for that, i take melatonin. It's a substance that can be found in the body when you have to go sleep (it makes you tired). Sometimes there isn't enough in your body to put you to a nice and relaxed long sleep. You can find this stuff in allmost every drugstore, i highly recommend it!

¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.-The coldest weather Thread¸¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.-

Hi,
As it´s damn cold around the north hemisphere how is your weather this days?
Please post weather in Centigrades not in Fahrenheit please!
Today Sunday Jan 10th at 19:37 we have in Coatepec, México 4 Celsius degrees (which is the coldest I ever felt here)
Non stop tiny rain since 1 week (no sun...)
How about you guys in northern countries?
I´m sure you will laugh about my 4 degrees

Man up.
It's 15* up here in Northern VA (about 15 miles south of DC) and with the windchill it feels as if it were 8*...
convert numbers as needed...what is it...n - 32 x 5/9??

-13 C
Central Massachusetts

-8C in Gothenburg Sweden, quite good if you compare it with -18C that we had the previous week until Saturday

-11°C on my car the other morning.
Went up to +2°C for a while yesterday, almost got my shorts out .
Dave

Yeah global warming what a load of swaddle 1°C here @ mo lowest is @ night about -7°C

Yes,
It has got down to -7 degrees in Wales at night, and -4 degrees in the day.
You know what? Nobody in the News is questioning the highly conferenced global warming fad???

Global Warming doesn't mean your country will get hotter. Now, don't take me as a fan of the current global warming hype (I hate hype), but it is the general consensus, if the world starts to heat, the weather will get more extreme - think Day After Tomorrow with less Hollywood .
P.S. all the weather we've had round here is nothing that wasn't a common winter 30-40 years ago.
Dave

about -12C today here in Latvia
heard that there were -28 over night in Latvias northern part..

Waiting for My Beast!

I will have my Droid 3 tomorrow! I am upgrading from a rooted Incredible, and I am super stoked! My husband got a Blackberry Bold with his upgrade because he wanted a physical keyboard, but with the BOGO for the D3, plus the fact that it has a slide out keyboard and the HUGE QHD screen, he is coming back to Android!
Honestly, the only reason I was rooted was to overclock, but there will be no need with the D3 (for now). I researched the benchmarks on this device, and they are amazing!
Anyway, here I am, from the Eris forums to the Incredible forums, and now on to much bigger and better things in the D3 forums! WOOOOO!

Right there with you!
Except mine arrives today, Waiting impatiently for the UPS fella. I live a mile from the UPS sorting facility where they load up the brown trucks, It's been out for delivery since 7 this morning. Tisk tisk.

Umm. I can't seem to grasp it on why people think that the moto droid 3 is a beast. Mu cuzz has one and my stock LG G2x makes it look slow. Then I fire up my faux123 kernel and oc to 1500. And well you know... sry for the response. Plus your battery life is gonna really suck...lol

I was waiting yesterday for 12 hours, I left to donate plasma, and it arrived 10 minutes after I left. I was sooooo annoyed. Anyways I love this beast. Smartbench I get Productivity: 3500 and Games: 2500. It is an amazing phone.

I looked up stock benchmarks for the G2X, and I've gotten a few Quadrant scores that are close to it (only about 20 points less at my max, and 90 points less at my minimum), and of course I'm still stock since there's nothing for our phone yet. So yes, this phone is indeed a beast. And the battery isn't that bad, with a decent amount of usage today (downloaded a few apps, played Cut the Rope for about 30 minutes, texted quite a bit, made a quick phone call), I'm still at 80% after almost 11 hours. Choose a better (or worse, really ) phone to argue against next time please
EDIT: Looked up some Linpack scores for the G2X, the Droid 3 kills it in both single- and multi-threaded modes

Lol... I had to do it.

Lol I love getting things stirred up. I just thought I would aggrivate a few people. But really, my cuzz phone dies in 5 hrs. Must have been a bad batch.

Depends on how you use it. Any higher end phone will choke in five hours if playing a lot of Flash and other high resource apps, non stop.

Just ran a benchmark.... 34.94 mflops with half battery and a few things going on in the background. Not bad considering my rooted Eris never hit 6 and my rooted Incredible never hit 20.

[APP]Sleepy Clock - wake up well rested

Sleepy Clock helps you sleep and wake up at the optimal time by calculating sleep cycles. Inspired by this simple website: sleepyti.me
Made it for myself really since I check that site so often and figured I could benefit from an app on my phone. It's now pinned on my home screen
Get it here:

Hope you like it!

I updated the app and published it to all available markets. So you should be able to get it by the end of this week hopefully!

This is pretty cool... assuming your sleep cycle is exactly 90 minutes. Great idea though. I'm gonna test it out this week.

Most people's sleep cycle is 90 minutes*, but people vary in time it takes to fall asleep. The average is 14 minutes, and that's taken into calculation in this app, too!
*Source: http://www.helpguide.org/life/sleeping.htm

I've been using this app every night...it's ok if I'm the only one using this, but I feel it could benefit more people. Check it out if you have irregular sleeping schedule.

there was once i was having fun with my friends when they started doing some really funny stuff.
i took out my OB to film it down, but when i played the recording back i noticed that there was freezes in between the video.
i hated my phone ever since. tried diferent roms and the problem persists, could be with my SD card though. but there's no way im swapping out my 32gb class 4 for another one.

I bricked my ob two days after I got it and had no windows... (I use Debian). So I waited a week for a friend to come back. My first smartphone ever... bricked in two days...
Then I was reading about "gorilla glass", my kitty came and - mimetism, I think - decided to tap the screen and made a scratch.
It fell three times the same day... only few little scratches that proved my friends their Iphones were made like cars: made to break as soon as possible...
And, the best, when I compared screen size and phone weight to my friends' Iphone. There was an advertisment sayin' "when you have an Iphone, you have blahblah"... and I was jokin' "you have a real tiny screen..." lol.
And last, when my friend adked me to make a wifi point for him to use his Ipad in the train. I was like: "so... how's android?

But Seriously, nothing happend

When I realized how to install the last firmware (V20N at that time) on my brand (damn TIM) OB.
Jump from V1.0a (or something similar, I don't remember) to V20N was a great thing..
Oh, all this thanks to LGExtract and SmartFlashTool.

pretty much the same about LGOB vs Iphone XD...
like a month after I got my OB, just root it and flash cm7 like a year ago so it was way unstable, so some friends and I were at a concert and I was like your phone can't do this and so on... start recording a video while the best song playing, phone self-rebooting... priceless XD

Finding out I can improve the performance/behavior/interface by finding xda, before buying the phone (my first droid), therefore deciding I shall buy it. That Froyo look sure is fugly.

well i always see my exam result in my phone....... don't know why but i always pass all the exams when ever i see through my ob its the best and the luckiest phone ever

When I showed my OB in a club and it got me laid......
just sayin....
