19 Reasons to Take a Nap

Posted by Queuebot in Everything Else on June 3, 2009 at 12:01 am

As if you need that many reasons to take a snooze.

Studies show that not only will you feel better almost immediately, says Sara Mednick, PhD, a sleep medicine researcher at the University of California at San Diego and author of Take a Nap! Change Your Life, but a daily nap of between 20 and 90 minutes before 4:00 pm will also increase your mental performance, reduce your chances of gaining weight, and make you feel a whole lot more like having sex after dinner than you probably do now. What’s more, it won’t affect your nighttime sleep.

Growing Jewelry

Posted by Queuebot in Fashion on January 26, 2009 at 8:22 pm

Last I checked basic jewelry offers a vast multitude of stylish, and
some not-so-stylish, rings for consumers to choose from. We have
promise rings, mood rings, earrings, engagement rings, wedding rings,
class rings, Lord of the Rings (yes, Gollum’s “precious” is
available to purchase). But now, thanks to Icelandic designer Hafsteinn
Juliusson (try to say that five times fast), we now have … moss rings.

“Growing Jewelry is a redefinition of modern values. It is a clash of jewelry and gardening; couture and organism. The collection of this hand jewelry is designed for people in metropolitan cities and is an experiment in drawing nature toward man, as nature being the presupposition of life.”
