Virgos are often tender but also very careful. Virgo is an Earth sign, which prefers conservative and organized things, and those dependent on them. People born under the Virgo sign have very organized life, and even if they are very messy, their goals and dreams are put on strictly defined points in their mind. Since Mercury is the ruling planet of Virgo, this sign has a well-developed sense of speech and writing, as well as all other forms of communication.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Randy Gardner (born c. 1947) is the holder of the scientifically documented record for the longest period a human has intentionally gone without sleep not using stimulants of any kind. In 1964, Gardner, a 16-year-old high school student in San Diego, California, stayed awake for 264.4 hours (11 days 24 minutes). This period of sleeplessness broke the previous record of 260 hours and 17 minutes held by disk jockey Tom Rounds of Honolulu.
Length of doctor shifts at alarming levels. A new survey of doctors has produced alarming figures on how long they are working at public hospitals. The audit by the Australian Medical Association (AMA) found the longest recorded shift by a doctor had increased to 43 hours straight. It discovered one in two public hospital doctors are working unsafe shifts, and one doctor, in one week, worked three times the number of hours as the average office worker.
