The Prague Post - Night & Day - Stage - 10th Prague Fringe Festival

10th Prague Fringe Festival
Ten years ago, the organizers of the Prague Fringe Festival were worried their new event might be a little too intimate. Thirty seconds before the first performance at the first-ever Fringe, they hadn't sold a single ticket, and distinguished actor Gareth Armstrong was preparing to perform his one-man show Shylock to an audience of none. "And then," according to Fringe founder and Director Steve Gove, "a guy ran up to us and said, 'Are there any tickets left?' We almost all kissed and hugged him at the same time!"

Not Enough Sleep: 7 Serious Health Risks

"Fitting everything into an already overcrowded day can be like trying to jam a pizza box into a garbage bag. It may fit, but something’s got to give.

Much of the time, what’s giving is sleep. Instead of sacrificing a good book, a favorite television show, or a few extra minutes of social networking, people have found a way to stretch their days by stealing from their nights.

Most people need between seven and eight hours of sleep a day. Lisa Shives, MD, medical director of Northshore Sleep Medicine near Chicago, stretches the upper number to eight-and-a-half hours. But it’s the bottom number that most concerns her. “I think an hour less a night consistently is enough to start to see impairment in people’s cognition and mood,” she says."

The study showed that patients who participated in a program that combined exercise, nutrition, and counseling were more likely to live longer after a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), in which plaque-clogged heart arteries are unblocked. The procedure is also known as an angioplasty.

The researchers reviewed the outcomes of Mayo Clinic patients who had undergone a PCI during the 14- year period from 1994 to 2008. Of the nearly 2,400 records they reviewed, those patients who had participated in the clinic’s cardiac rehab program were nearly 50% less likely to die than patients who had not participated. The outcomes were similar regardless of whether the patient was a man or woman, younger or older."
