Too Much Sleep how Bad it is for Your Brain

 

Without a doubt, sleep is good for us. Getting enough is essential for staying energized, mentallypeople have  long talked about the importance and getting enough of it, but what if you tend to sleep more than the recommended 7-8 hours? ...will rhere be any side effect?...well i have the answer here;A new study  in Havard suggests that might also negatively affect your memory and thinking.The Harvard-based Nurses' Health Study, published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, asked over 15,000 women (ages 70 and up) about their sleep habits in 1986 and 2000. The researchers then tested the nurses' cognitive functions three times over a six-year period. Those who slept very little (5 or fewer hours a day) or very much (9 or more hours a day)  were said to performed significantly less well on those memory and thinking tests than those who slept 7 to 8 hours a day. do you  now know the The scariest part?  according to report,The researchers estimate the under- and over-sleepers were mentally two years older than those who slept the recommended amount.

The study also suggests poorer cognitive skills if your sleep duration changes by 2 hours or more over time (something that often happens as you get older), rather than having no change in your sleep amount.PThe Harvard Health blog reasons that too much sleep is often associated with poor sleep quality, which in turn could affect memory and thinking.P
While, as with most other studies, correlation doesn't equal causation, and the study subjects were specifically elderly females, the takeaway for us all is to try to improve sleep quality, especially as we age.

 according to Aye crooner, "this is coming as news to me because I don’t even know something like that has been said about me”. Speaking about  the girl she featured in Aye, Davido said “the truth is that I wanted to feature the winner of the most beautiful girl in Nigeria beauty pageant in the video, but her manager said she would not be available for the shoot. that's the reason I decided to use my make-up artist, who eventually did well in the video.

 pouring it all out davido said "I am neither dating her nor other girls as I speak with you. Disregard any rumour linking me with any girl!”  assuring the rumour mongers about his career,Davido insisted that his career needs all the concentration it could give it right now, saying “thinking about any woman now will be a distraction.

[remarkably ingenius!] new things about The PS4 Second Son'...be the first to know!

contrary to what some youths assumed,Second Son isn't the most original game in the world, but it is a very fantastic  game that serves as the best demonstration yet of the PlayStation 4's powers. To that end, Sony-owned developer Sucker Punch Productions decided to include an unprecedented photo mode that lets players capture and share moments from Seattle's streets, sweeping vistas, and superhero action.

Photo modes are common in racing games, but Second Son's stands out because of the realistic urban setting. With options for color processing, camera angles, and almost infinite flexibility with depth of field, playing the game feels like a new, virtual form of street photography where raising the viewfinder to the eye is replaced by a click of the L3 button.

The mode streamlines the techniques used by Duncan Harris, aka Dead End Thrills who captures similar artistic "photographs" within games. It's a feature that comes alive with the PS4 controller's Share button; you can instantly save photos and post them to Facebook and Twitter without needing to deal with complex menus or USB storage. Here's hoping other developers see the same potential from here on out.
