Going over some blogs, I found this curious post over at Tech Crunch. Presumably it seems to be something that was intended to be a joke, considering that the Tech Crunch HQ claims that sleep is not among the things that are in mind when working over there.

However, this brings us to think, sleep is indeed essential and although some may deny it, a few minutes of nap time does help in the productivity area, something shared by one of the commenters over there.

Everything started from a simple email with NapQuest on the subject. The whole thing seems to be an excerpt from special rooms designed for some people who work over 8 hours a day to take some nap or so.

While some may find it hilarious, on the health aspect, the request does seem reasonable. Either that or go home early. Then again, that would mean more pressure at work or allowing the company operations to suffer due to lack of work done for the day.

The pillow should be a hit with kids but make sure they don’t get the habit of using it in pillow fights though. Other than that, the Chicken Leg Food Pillow should be a neat thing to have once nap time comes.

The Chicken Leg Food Pillow is available from Indigo for about $21.95 in case you want one.

A good bed leads to goods sleep and hopefully these new organic mattresses from Ergo Sleep Systems can do just that. Offering mattresses made from organic latex, the mattresses are now available for checking and purchase over at Berkeley.

The eco-friendly mattress boasts of latex that has no harmful chemical materials nor fillers that could compromise the quality of the mattresses. The mattresses will carry Eco Revive and Eco Refresh from Natura Brand with all queen-sized mattresses made with 100% organic wool. The organic mattresses are very durable, eco-friendly and good for orthopedic purposes which should be something to look forward to once nap time comes.

Two former day care workers from Ohio have been charged with three counts of child endangering and three counts each of misrepresentation by childcare provider for slipping an OTC supplement into candies to make kids sleep during nap time.

Parents complained that their kids looked groggy after being picked up from the day care and were notified of the malpractice when a co-worker notified police in December that Hartley and Scott gave the children melatonin in candy. Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone that helps control sleeping and waking cycles. Possible side effects of the supplement form include dizziness, abdominal discomfort, headaches, confusion, sleepwalking and nightmares.

Pamela Hartley and Donna Scott got most serious charges that could be applied.
