Eat your apple a day.....

... and keep the doctor away. i'm sorry, but i don't trust my health to someone who doesn't have the good sense to get a little bit of sleep every now and then. i mean really... everyone knows that if you don't get enough sleep your preformance drops, right?

Interns at an intensive care unit in a large Boston teaching hospital typically work 77 to 81 hours per week, with up to 34 consecutive hours without sleep. That's a heroic schedule, but one demanded by the culture of medicine and considered a sign of dedication to patients. But is this good for patients?

No, concludes a study by researchers at the Harvard Medical School...

apparently it isn't so obvious. if doctors need a harvard medical study to convince them that they need sleep, maybe we need to look into making some changes.

India's bandit king died as he lived: in dense forests at the tip of a bullet.
For more than two decades, Koose Muniswamy Veerappan eluded hundreds of police officers devoted to nothing but his capture.

And futhermore:

Policeman, officials, even rival gangs were eliminated in vicious killing sprees. Veerappan once captured a senior forest official, beheaded him and hacked off his hands. He tied grenades to five policemen and blew them up in revenge for the capture of his gang members. He is also said to have strangled his own daughter.
