 Berkeley Parents Network: Wake-ups for Night Feedings
I was getting up for two night feedings (for one pf the babies-- the other weaned herself at nine months) until one of my daughters was almost a year old because she really seemed to need it.
She said, ''Look, if someone gave you Godiva chocolate whenever you woke up in the middle of the night, you'd keep waking up, wouldn't you?'' I asked her if it would hurt to give him water, instead (which two of the baby books I had suggested).
She said, not unless I enjoyed waking up in the middle of the night to nurse.

 Belkin Universal UPS protocol description
There might be many reasons to remove the UPS during a power failure, for instance, you take your computer to a friend's house, or you attach it to a generator, or whatever.
In experimenting with my own UPS, I found that 0.25 seconds is the minimum time required for the UPS to react; however, the time required may differ for different UPS hardware.
On my UPS, it seems to be set precisely if (1) the UPS is operating on Battery power and the alarm is physically ringing, including during a test, or (2) the UPS is operating on AC power.

 D1 Battery Drain   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Camera awake: As soon as it wakes up, it will use 590 mA continuously until it falls asleep again in six seconds if that setting is used.
If the camera is woken up four times for each picture taken, we are down to 500 wake-ups even before a picture power drain is included.
Also note, waking up the camera and taking a JPG almost uses as much energy as just waking up the camera, about 7 seconds vs 6 seconds.

 Luap's mini-UPS
On another point, the occasionaly crashes which I get from my computer, and have pretty much come to accept (it doesn't happen too often), I have wondered for a while whether they might be down to variations/spikes in the power supply lines from switch-on transient from nearby heavy loads, and stuff.
Well, I've been using the ups for a while, and I haven't had any of those random crashes yet.
When I get a spare minute, I'm going to load up the usb ports with webcams (they're about the most curent-hungry usb devices I can think of), watch a dvd, burn a CD, and access all of the hard drives at once, and see if it grumbles then.

This morning, Max woke up early, and since I was going for a short run (~1.5 miles) I invited him to join me on his bike.
Her multiple night wake ups were making our house a bit cranky (except Max who would sleep right through her screaming just a few feet from his ears).

And so you stay...at first for one song, then for three, and before you know it the set is over and you're looking for the merch table...
You wake up with their melodies in your head.
The Wake Ups sport the typical rock and roll gear (drums, bass, guitar, occasional keys), but the results are anything but clichéd The disc opens with "Let You Down", an angular dual-guitar, drum-slamming assault that shifts tempos relentlessly but never loses momentum.

 TK's Sideshow Extravaganza: 08/15/2004 - 08/21/2004
I transposed the last two digits of her room number when I was adding her to the sheet of requested wake ups.
So when she called my this morning to rightfully complain, I would have been very much in the mindset to send her up complimentary breakfast and drink tickets for free drinks on her last night in the hotel and free breafkast the final morning.
However, the lack of wake up call probably does rest on my shoulders, so tomorrow when this guest is checking out, I'll probably comp her parking, but I will do it as someone who must rather than someone who wants to see this woman's stay redeemed.

 BU Bridge News - Week of 9 January 1998
A Boston University School of Medicine psychiatrist is investigating every surgery patient's nightmare -- waking up during an operation, but being powerless to alert surgeons to the fact.
Janet Osterman believes that the problem has gone unrecognized within the medical profession and hopes that her research project will lead to improved treatment for victims, or "awareness survivors," most of whom are severely traumatized.
"It is very rewarding for me that people have called up to say that although they do not feel able to come in to be interviewed, they are grateful that at last there is some public acknowledgement that what they experienced can and does actually happen.

I’ve been consistently disappointed over the last year with bands who have an impressive ex-members roster, but fail to offer up at least the same caliber of rocking that their past endeavors have.
There aren’t many things that I can say I was one hundred percent certain of last year; why I woke up wearing womens’ underwear after a long night at in Athens, how my apartment sink got filled with dishes when I never eat at home, or who those funny voices in my head belong to.
By the end of the evening I found myself chatting up the band at their table with my new CD in hand.
