A couple of news bits out of the ordinary today from the Courier Mail
An article in the latest New Scientist magazine has reported of a breakthrough drug which allows the user to live for extended periods of time on limited amounts of sleep. Another article from Courier Mail reported that sex workers have now been given the right to claim condoms, lingerie, oils and other "tools of the trade" as tax deductions under new rules issued by the tax office. The article states adult industry workers can even claim bondage gear and exotic dancing lessons. Interesting! |

Yeah - the anti-sleep drug (Modavigil) has been around for a while. It's currently only licenced for use in Australia for treatment of narcolepsy. It does sound like the dream drug for those wanting more hours in their day though - keeps you awake for as long as you want, but when you want to sleep, you can - it doesn't appear to stop you from falling asleep at night!

are these supposed to be somehow related? like an increase the use of anti-sleep drugs has lead to an increase in the business associated with around-the-clock sex workers>?
