I don't think anybody ever looked at that. To be honest I don't even think there are so many studies on polyphasic sleep, tout-court. There's quite a lot of literature on people doing work shift, though, and we know they have plenty of trou

Well, I wouldn't recommend it. A bad sleep hygiene in pre- and adolescent kids (especially pre-) is known to associate with obesity, hypertension and diabetes - there is quite a great deal of literature on that. At your age your sleep patte

The "saving energy" idea was out in the 80's, mainly put forward by Rechtschaffen and colleagues but it was abandoned the moment people realized that a sleeping brain does not consume much less energy than the awake brain. In fact the energ

CPAP raises pressure all the time (stands for continuous positive airway pressure) so it avoids collapse at any time, not just during inhalation. I never heard of problems during exhale but if they exist CPAP should be quite effective any

The truth is that we still have no whatsoever idea of what sleep is for, to start with. There are hypothesis out there but none of them is even close to be considered scientifically plausible. Some of them say sleep has something to do with

The article linked by OP is just plain wrong on so many aspects. The one linked here, OTHO, seems to get things quite right. I am a neuroscientist and I study sleep (genetics of sleep, to be precise); I am amused and intrigued by the amount

Only in the top10 there are 2 URL shortener (ow.ly and tr.im) I think I overestimated for a long time the concept that you really need an original idea to make money with the web.

Most important thing to me is that you better start dancing in the right environment. If you start doing that in the middle of the street, rather than in a music festival, people will call the cops.

I still think doesn't help. I liked the idea and did the turk for one of your questions (this was my first time doing the turk, btw). I was asked to visit a myspace webpage, listen entirely to 2 songs and say which one I like better and why
