for neighbors Marc / Layla / reader how do they sleep?? Who holds who?? Who is waking up in the middle of the night to initiate? Who wakes up first and stares lovingly at the other two?? Crying rn

i wanna say you all alternate your positions regularly but that’d be lie because marc’s in the middle 70% of the time.

it’s because he’s literally like a living furnace so in the winter, he’s just perfect to have in the middle but then in the summer, he’s literally in the middle so that you and layla have easy access to the sides of the blanket so you can escape, at the very least, the heat of the blanket when it gets too hot.

there also isn’t a specific way you guys hold onto each other! you’re all just kinda collectively a lump on the bed and your only concerns are that you’re all getting held someway somehow and that it’s comfy.

so the waking up in the middle of the night - marc comes off as a light sleeper kind of person, so he’s kinda the one waking up more often than not and after he does, he literally just winds an arm around the waist of whichever one of you managed to sneak off to the edge of the bed in your sleep to drag you back to him.

but also!! some nights, mostly in the summer, you and layla will wake up around the same time because of, once again, the heat. either you’re on the same wave length and can sense the other waking up, or one heard the other trying to unsuccessfully kick off the blanket and woke up only to realize how hot they were getting too. when that happens, the two of you just sneak off honestly. you both crawl out of bed with the intention of grabbing some water and giving your limbs a good stretch - with the intention of taking no longer than five minutes - but then almost always end up being found by a sleepy eyed marc who missed his girls, giggling under the fridge light at three a.m.

and marc!! it’s marc who wakes up first. always. it’s like his body is hard wired to wake up thirty minutes before he actually needs to as if it knows that he can’t function without those few minutes of peace he gets just getting to hold the loves of his life.

How Do Cpap Machines Work

History/Purpose

Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is a mechanical means of achieving airflow when normal breathing is impaired through physical damage to the airway or by a condition that affects breathing. It is a common treatment for those who are suffering from sleep apnea, a condition in which breathing frequently stops during the sleep cycle. This halted breathing affects sleep quality, and a person's overall rest achieved during sleep is diminished. CPAP is sometimes used to assist with breathing in other conditions affecting respiration, including congestive heart failure.

The system was originally developed by Colin Sullivan while doing sleep research in Australia in the early 1980s. He discusses its origin in an interview titled Sleep Pioneer Remembers the Early Days of CPAP (see References).

CPAP Machines

CPAP machines are, in principle, fairly basic machines. They consist of an air pump (sometimes called a flow generator), a tube that is attached to the air pump and a component that attaches to user's face, which is generally called an interface. The design of the interface depends on the machine and the needs of user. A common design for the interface is a full mask that consists of a plastic mouthpiece that covers both mouth and nose, attached to a harness that fits over the head. Other designs may be for the nose or mouth only. Some wearers can find the full mask to be claustrophobic and can opt for a non-mask interface that attaches just to the nose (nasal pillows). The different designs can help the users to achieve a greater degree of comfort while wearing the interface, which improves the overall therapeutic value of CPAP treatments. The types of interfaces and their purpose are discussed in the article CPAP Interfaces: Helping Your Patients Find the Perfect Fit. (See References.)

CPAP Function

Normally, when a person is asleep, the tissue in his throat remains partially tensed. This allows for a continued, free flow of air to be maintained because the airway remains open. In those who have sleep apnea, the tissues in the throat relax too much and the airway becomes momentarily blocked. This is what causes the frequent stops in breathing a sleep apnea sufferer experiences. It can also lead to very brief moments of wakefulness that interrupt the sleep cycle. The function of the CPAP machine is to keep a flow of air moving into the airway. This pressurized air flow keeps the airway open, preventing the sleeper from experiencing the breaks in breathing while sleeping. This improves the overall duration and quality of rest.

Android-Service will help scientists during sleep

Samsung and the marketing agency Cheil offered to ordinary users help scientists decipher the University of Vienna in the amino acid sequence of the protein. To do this, the owner of a smartphone or tablet on Android you need to install “smart” Service Power Sleep.

Hours to charge the device is idle, its computing resources for employ mathematical operations. The smartphone will download data packets of about 1 megabyte, process them, and send them back at the end. Calculations useful to researchers in the fight against cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and other serious illnesses.

Power Sleep also serves as an alarm clock when he bell, Android-device immediately cease all calculations. The application can be downloaded for free in the Google Play. To install the required version of the firmware is not below 2.3.

Consumer gadgets is not the first time used in research. A few years ago to join the Folding @ Home project on distributed simulation of folding and unfolding of the protein molecules suggested owners of gaming consoles PlayStation 3. And last year, scientists from the University of California at Berkeley released program BOINC, which she does the same thing that the Power Sleep, only without the alarm functions. But BOINC provides the opportunity to participate in other projects – for example, tracking asteroids or seismic activity.
