Phone checking and 'cognitive failures' -- a word to the wise interpreter.

For help with sleep: In addition to using f.lux if you are online or looking at a screen after sundown (and even if you're not), one thing that makes a huge difference in your body's ability to produce melatonin to allow you to get to sleep is blue light-blocking goggles. Solar Shield Amber Goggles or Uvex are two brands that do this. The amber goggles are darker and fit over glasses. The Uvex glasses are yellow and do not fit over glasses. Wearing them anytime your eyes are exposed to artificial light (any regular lighting, refrigerator light at night, etc.) after sundown makes all the difference in signaling your pineal gland that it's time to start producing melatonin, which takes a few hours to build up. Highly recommended!

Solar Shield II polycarbonate Amber fit-overs are ideal for individuals with cataracts. Each lightweight, impact-resistant polycarbonate lens ensures 100% UVA/UVB protection & exceeds the strictest UV blocking requirements (ANSI Z80.3-1996). SIZE: 50-15-125mm

Good tip to adjust your body to the time change. And if you don't already have it, also good to install f.lux on your computer to adjust its color when the sun goes down - and it's free!

Our annual clock fiddling leads to fewer robberies and more unhappy farmers, for starters.
