Intelligent Design My Cyborg Spoodle Katcha, my beloved cyborg spoodle, truly is unlike any other dog I've ever encountered. His fur shimmers with this stunning iridescent blue that catches the light in the most mesmerising way—it's almost like he's glowing with energy. I love how the patches of soft fluff contrast beautifully with the gleam of his metallic joints and plates; it creates this fascinating blend of the organic and the mechanical that never fails to amaze me. Whenever I watch him stand perfectly still, I can’t help but admire the intricate design of his gears and panels, animated by those vibrant LED lights. It’s almost as if he’s a work of art. What I cherish most is how he carries himself; despite the coldness of his metal parts, there’s so much warmth in his posture. With his head slightly tilted and those curious eyes locked onto something unseen at his feet, Katcha radiates this incredible curiosity. I genuinely believe a spark of self-awareness and high i...
It seems that all you really need to survive and feel rested is the REM phase, which is only a tiny portion of your actual sleep phases at night. You only spend 1-2 hours in REM sleep during any given night, and the rest is wasted on the other seemingly useless phases.
The way to hack yourself into entering REM sleep without being exhausted is to trick your body into thinking you’re going to get a tiny amount of sleep. You can train it to enter REM for short periods of time throughout the day in 20-minute naps rather than in one lump at night.
Remarkably, adding just one nap during the day shaves an hour and forty minutes off your total sleep requirement.
Powernapping Scientific experiments and anecdotal evidence suggest that an average power-nap duration of around 1 - 2 hours is most effective.Mitsuo Hayashi, Ph.D. and Tadao Hori, Ph.D.have demonstrated that a nap improves mental performance even after a full night sleep.
REM sleep, this particular sleep state is highly conducive to fluid reasoning and flexible thought.
REM sleep in adult humans typically occupies 20-25% of total sleep, about 90-120 minutes of a night's sleep. During a normal night of sleep, humans usually experience about 4 or 5 periods of REM sleep; they are quite short at the beginning of the night and longer toward the end. Many animals and some people tend to wake, or experience a period of very light sleep, for a short time immediately after a bout of REM.
During REM, the activity of the brain's neurons is quite similar to that during waking hours. Vividly recalled dreams mostly occur during REM sleep.
....the link between creativity, dreams, and sleep behaviors, researchers discovered that participants who were classified as "fast sleepers" (those who fell asleep quickly) were more likely to score highly on a creativity test, participants who scored highly on a creativity test were more likely to solve their problems through dreams and to fall asleep quickly, and adults in creative occupations have significantly more dream distortion, visual mentation, and regressive dream content
........after sleep there is an increased insight, that is, a sudden gain of explicit knowledge. Thus during sleep the representation of new memories are restructured.

DAY ONE Our trusty Subaru Forester was packed with me, my partner Brenda, Katchalla (our concerned but enthusiastic spoodle), and enough snacks to survive a tiny apocalypse. With our brand new Brass Monkey securely tucked into the boot, we set off on our mission: the first leg of an epic journey from Darwin to Ulladulla, NSW, with Daly Waters shimmering in our minds as our initial oasis. We departed from Darwin, the tropical humidity clinging to us like a second skin. After about 98 kilometers, the promise of caffeine lured us into the Adelaide River Country Store. Brenda, ever the coffee connoisseur, declared their coffee to be "a damn good coffee," which is a high compliment indeed. Meanwhile, Katcha sniffed around, searching for the right spot to relieve himself and stumbled upon the store's no dickhead policy. Back on the Stuart Highway, the landscape began to slowly transform. The lush greens of Darwin gradually gave way to the more resilient vegetation of the outb...
DAY TWO Today, we embark on another day of driving through the vast Australian Outback. Our journey takes us from Daly Waters in the Northern Territory to Cloncurry in Queensland. We are all packed and excited for another adventure! Travelling over 11,000 kilometres will take approximately 13 hours, including some pit stops. Thankfully, the Northern Territory has a speed limit of 130 km/h. Last night, we stayed at the Daly Waters Highway Inn, which has a pet-friendly policy. The sunrise over the trees in Daly Waters was spectacular. Our dog settled in and enjoyed the evening and morning walk. The Stuart Highway is the main road in the Northern Territory, stretching for a long distance where road trains frequently travel. These enormous trucks, which can pull multiple trailers, are impressive to see. Along the highway, there are plenty of long straight strips and overtaking lanes, allowing us to overtake large vehicles at speeds not allowed elswhere in Australia. Passing a road tr...
