Now, I do not like to appear as The Grim Reaper, but I've got news for all of you. It's definitely not a world of rainbows and unicorns nowadays, and media organizations should be focusing on journalism.

Most folks need around seven to nine hours of sleep. Healthy sleep habits can make a big difference in your quality of life. Having healthy sleep habits is often referred to as having good “sleep hygiene.”

To not be like this guy, you may wish to try to keep the following sleep practices on a consistent basis:

Stick to the same bedtime and wake up time, even on the weekends.

Practice a relaxing bedtime ritual.

There is a trick up US Attorney Preet Bharara's sleeve, and it is to force the Moreland Commission members to say things that may hurt corrupt politicians in NY state government. But this is not only a NY State problem, but an international disgrace.

We keep on hearing "Lets throw the bums out", but we never do. The fact that corrupt "leaders" continue to stay in power speaks for itself. We are, its beginning to appear that we are living in a corrupt universe.
