Adequate sleep is a key part of a healthy lifestyle, and can benefit your heart, weight, mind, and more. "Sleep used to be kind of ignored, like parking our car in a garage and picking it up in the morning," says David Rapoport, MD, director of the NYU Sleep Disorders Program. Not anymore. Here are some health benefits researchers have discovered about a good night’s sleep.

Its name comes from a colloquialism for the directory given to students at some American universities. Facebook was founded on February 4, 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg with his college roommates and fellow Harvard University students Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes. The founders had initially limited the website's membership to Harvard students, but later expanded it to colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford University. It gradually added support for students at various other universities before it opened to high-school students, and eventually to anyone aged 13 and over. Facebook now allows anyone who claims to be at least 13 years old to become a registered user of the website.
  Users must register before using the site, after which they may create a personal profile, add other users as friends, exchange messages, and receive automatic notifications when they update their profile. Additionally, users...    less

Rural development has traditionally centered on the exploitation of land-intensive natural resources such as agriculture and forestry. However, changes in global production networks and increased urbanization have changed the character of rural areas. Increasingly tourism, niche manufacturers, and recreation have replaced resource extraction and agriculture as dominant economic drivers. The need for rural communities to approach development from a wider perspective has created more focus on a broad range of development goals rather than merely creating incentive for agricultural or resource based businesses. Education, entrepreneurship, physical infrastructure, and social infrastructure all play an important role in developing rural regions. Rural development is also characterized by its emphasis on locally produced economic...    less

Singh had tweeted, "Narendra Modi accepts his marital status. Can women of this country trust a man who stalks a woman, deprives his wife of her right? Vote against Modi." Digvijay Singh's wife Asha Singh, 58, had passed away on February 27, 2013, at a hospital in New Delhi after battling cancer for several years. His son is Jaivardhan Singh, a legislator from Madhya Pradesh's Raghogarh, and he also has four daughters. His tweet on the day came when polling was taking place in seven states and two Union Territories in the seventh phase of 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Twitteratti posted comments, mostly snide ones, after the couple came out in the open about their relationship. The Bharatiya Janata Party attacked Singh on the issue. Party spokesperson Meenakshi Lekhi said: "A new definition of morality has been given by...    less

It comprises the contiguous Seven Sister States—Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland and Tripura—and the Himalayan state of Sikkim. These states are grouped under the MDONER ministry of the Government of India. Except for the Goalpara region of Assam, the rest were late entrants to political India—the Brahmaputra valley of Assam became a part of British India 1824, and the hilly regions even later. Sikkim joined the Indian union through a referendum in 1975 and was recognised as a part of North-East states in the 1990s.
  In terms of geographical size, Northeast India constitute about 8% of the total India's size, and is roughly 3/4th the size of the state of Maharashtra. Northeast India's population (All the 8 states combined) is approximately 40 million (2011 census), which represents 3.1% of the total Indian population...    less
