Everyone knows that good sleep is vitally important for our health. Not everyone knows how
important it is to sleep in the dark. A new report says that sleeping with the light on could be bad for
our health. Researchers say that turning off the light when we sleep helps to keep away diabetes and
heart diseases. Sleeping with the light on could increase the risk of getting these diseases. The
researchers said that around 40 percent of people sleep with some sort of artificial light. They said
even the light from a television or alarm clock could affect our health. They added that the worst
thing to sleep with is a main light. Sleeping in the dark is more difficult for people who live in cities
where there is a lot of outdoor light at night.

The researchers are from the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in
Chicago, USA. Dr. Phyllis Zee, who is an expert in sleep medicine, is the lead researcher. She said
that it is healthier for us to turn off all lights when we sleep. Her team conducted a study of the
blood sugar levels of 20 people after nights of sleep. The people who slept with a light on had
higher blood sugar levels the next morning compared to those who slept in total darkness. Dr. Zee
said this is because light stimulates brain activity, which raises blood sugar levels. She said there
are three things we can do to reduce the risk of illness. The first thing is we should turn off the

lights. Moreover, we should never sleep with white or blue light. Finally, it is a good idea to use a
blackout curtain or wear an eye mask.

Transition. It’s a pleasant word and a calming concept. Change may frighten some and
challenge others. But transition means going surely and sweetly from somewhere present to
somewhere future. Unless, that is, it is newspapers’ ‘transition’ to the online world, an uncertain
and highly uncomfortable process – because, frankly, it may not be a process at all. But surely (you
say) it is bound to happen eventually. Everybody knows that print newspaper sales are plummeting
while visits to the same papers’ websites keep on soaring. Just look at the latest print circulation
figures. The Daily Telegraph, The Guardian and many of the rest are down overall between 8% and
10% year-on-year, but their websites go ever higher. All of which may well be true, depending on
timing, demography, geography and more. After all, everyone – from web academics to print
analysts – says so. Yet pause for a while and count a few little things that don’t quite fit.

One is the magazine world, both in the UK and in the US. It ought to be collapsing,
wrecked by the move to the tablets which fit existing magazine page sizes so perfectly. But, in fact,
the rate of decline in magazine purchasing is relatively small, with subscriptions holding up
strongly and advertising remarkably solid. You can discover a similar phenomenon when it comes
to books. Kindle and similar e-readers are booming, with sales up massively this year. The apparent
first step of transition couldn’t be clearer. Yet, when booksellers examined the value of the physical
books they sold over the last six months, they found it just 0.4% down. Screen or paper, then? It
wasn’t one or the other: it was both.

So, if sales in that area have fallen so little, perhaps the crisis mostly affects newspapers?
Yet again, though, the messages are oddly mixed. The latest survey of trends by the World
Association of Newspapers shows that global circulation rose 1.1% last year (to 512 million copies
a day). Sales in the West dropped back but Asia more than made up the difference.

Such varying national trends may well reflect a situation far more complicated than the
prophets of digital revolution assume. America’s media analysts used to argue that booming online
advertising revenues would pay for change and, along with lower production costs, make online
newspapers a natural success. But now, with digital advertisements on newspaper sites actually
dropping back, such assumptions seem like history.
