Kids' Factory Music-"I See the Sun"
This is a sweet song with beautiful illustrations about the sun and stars. Some of the lyrics include "I see the sun, a big round sun. I see the moon, a big round moon, I see the stars, little, little stars-smiling just for me". This would be a great teaching resource for any younger elementary classroom for fun, general music class, or for a thematic unit on Earth or planets (2:40).

MC Fireplace - The Fossil Fuel Rap
This teacher-made project is a rap song about what fossil fuels are and how they are formed. Audio quality is low making it difficult to understand the words to the rap. Some of the lyrics include: "Well, it all starts a few million years ago from the mountains high to the valleys low. I've been talking to the bird and talking to the bees telling me all about the dead trees. They've been falling to the ground getting covered in soild and sand. It all builds up and there's loads of pressure
Lesson #008, Wednesday io = I tu = you (informal) Lei = you (formal) lui = he lei = she noi = we voi = you (plural, formal and informal) loro = they The subject pronoun io, unlike the English I, is not capitalized unless it begins a sentence. Lei is the formal form for both masculine and feminine and is written with the capital L to distinguish it from lei (she).

Roberts, John
The latest news on Roberts, John
The Roberts Supreme Court once again pledged its fealty to business interests.
Reporter Marcia Coyle explains how recent rulings show the justices aren't as polarized as they seem.
The healthcare law will hit the brakes on skyrocketing health costs.
Liberals are celebrating John Roberts's vote that led to the healthcare law being upheld, but conservatives may have something to celebrate as well.
Focusing on Chief Justice John Roberts's vote to uphold the healthcare law distracts from the mission to repeal it.
Outrage that Chief Justice John Roberts betrayed conservatives by finding the healthcare law constitutional is misplaced.
Republicans will oppose healthcare law as "the largest tax increase in history."
The fact that the most conservative justice upheld the healthcare law is a major win for Obama.
But Democrats have only themselves to blame.
Some think it's important for the justices to be there; others say the speech is just a partisan show.

text: Produced by cheesemaker Nunzio Marcelli in the Abruzzo region of Italy, just East of Rome, Smoked Ricotta Peperoncino is a smoked, aged ricotta made from the whey of raw sheep's milk and then coated in Abruzzo chili peppers (peperoncino). The milk is sourced from Sopravvissana sheep, a rare breed native to Abruzzo, that are renowned for giving limited quantities of very high yielding (fat) milk. The sheep graze the hills surrounding the village where the cheese is made. Marcelli first uses the milk to make Pecorino, preserving the whey from production for his ricotta cheeses, including the Smoked Ricotta Peperoncino. They whey is heated to 176˚F (80˚C) which causes any residual proteins to float to the surface. They are then scooped up and gently transferred to molds where they are allowed to drain naturally for several hours. After unmolding, dry salting and drying, the cheeses are cold-smoked for twelver hours using juniper wood. They are then coated in the peperoncino before being transferred to aging caves and allowed to mature for between two to three months. Flavors are spicy, sweet and smoky with rich notes of cream.

Albuquerque Restaurants near Movies West Albuquerque - North ValleyBecause it's just far enough away to make a trip to El Camino the perfect excuse for a Saturday morning motorcycle ride. Because there are handpainted cow skulls on the wall and the waitresses call you "hon'." Because the down-home breakfast burritos and huevos rancheros are just plain good.

Sun: 9am-2pm
Closed Monday (subject to change) Full review: Sophia's little brother is quirky but charming (5/14/2009) From the folks who brought us Sophia's Place (breakfast and lunch only), Ezra's Place is just a short jog down the street inside the Lucky 66 Bowl. Chef Dennis is playing with dinner in the same lane-side dining room where Sadie's got its start. The Kobe beef burger is what all burgers should aspire to be, and at $10 (served with blue cheese, caramelized red onion and a heap of those shoestring fries), it's an outright steal. Other dishes span a wide and surprising ingredient range (Asadero cheese? Duck confit and free-range chicken?) but the comfort-food quality (tacos, et al) make this place at home in the bowling alley. Open for lunch and dinner, plus brunch on the weekends. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) View/Add Reviews [ 6 ] Flying Star CaféSun-Thurs: 6am-10pm
Fri-Sat: 6am-11pm (subject to change) Flying Star's blueberry buttermilk pancakes are a guaranteed silver bullet for your behemoth-sized sweet tooth. They're friggin' enormous, fluffy and filling, and at about $2.30 a pop, a little frivolous. But you're worth the extra pennies, aren't you, sweetie pie? Throw in a side of green chile turkey sausage and a beautiful North Valley patio, and your crudo is history.

The dining room is walled with lustrous, ebony-adobe, and the tables are clothed in crisp, black and white linens. By the glass or bottle, there's plenty of quality hooch. The menu is classic steakhouse stuff, with beef tournedos in a silky demi-glace, fresh fish and a damn fine veal Oscar. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Albuquerque - WestsideBesides having the Best Pizza, according to past Best of Burque Restaurants polls, Dion's also has a wonderful selection of salads (particularly the Greek or any of the "gourmet" salads with microgreens) and sandwiches (the pastrami is especially good). The pizza is made fresh and you can see them rolling and tossing the dough. Dine in or order takeout. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Yes, Golden Pride is technically a fried chicken joint, but it also serves fantastic barbecue and the best damn portable burritos in town. Drive through and order a flock of wings, a rack of ribs and a passel of No. 9 breakfast burritos (with bacon!). It's all good with beer, by the way. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Get a little taste of the farm right here in the city. Hannah and Nate's is a country gift shop and breakfast and lunch café, so come in for a portobello salad and some potpourri, or a spinach salad and some ceramics. The sandwiches are as stuffed as the handmade pillows, and the prices are down-home and hospitable. Tip the servers, not the cows!

Sun-Tue 8am-9pm (subject to change) Full review: Mariscos Altamar review (3/1/2007) This Westside gem awards patrons with steamy, heaping plates of Mexican seafood in a clean, cozy dining area. Breakfast, lunch or dinner, it's usually pretty hopping, though there's always a seat and prompt service. Try the shrimp or crab quesadilla, with just the right balance of cheese and seafood. The cocktails have delicious shrimp (even octopus) served in their own juices with hunks of avocado, spices and onion. When the menu warns you something's going to be hot, it really is. You can always cool off with an order of homemade flan. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Las Islitas stakes its claim on just one noble pursuit—the seafood-heavy cuisine of Mexico's Central Pacific state of Nayarit. The food is simple, delicious and authentic, having clearly evolved in a place where the raw ingredients are good and fresh. No culinary tap-dancing is necessary. Brothy, aromatic soups and fish-filled empanadas are a few must-haves, and even the unsavory sounding dishes such as camarones a la cucaracha ("cockroach" shrimp) are surprisingly delicious. You will definitely leave with a full panza. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review Mimmo's Ristorante & PizzeriaMon-Thurs: 11am-9pm
Fri-Sat: 11am-10pm
Sun: 11am-9pm (subject to change) Full review: It's a family thing (6/5/2008) A New York-Italian setting so authentic, Don Corleone would feel comfortable. Co-owner Sal Cerami has compiled a simple list that's better than those found at most small Italian restaurants. It won't win a Wine Spectator Award, but that's not his goal. Cerami's love and excitement for wine is contagious as he mills around the tables selling bottles of Chianti. The real treat is having him personally recommend your wine—somehow, Cerami always finds a hidden jewel stashed away, as though he were saving it just for you.

The stir-fried wide noodle dishes are a hit, as are many of the salads (try the mango salad, if it's available, or the lovely seafood salad). All of the rice-accompanied dishes at Thai Cuisine allow you to upgrade from jasmine to a short-grained, flavorful brown. The lunch specials are a steal.

And judging by the steady stream of well-fed customers you'll find there, it's serving its neighborhood well. Men in work boots fill the space with lively banter that bounces from table to worn-in table. The service is smooth and unadorned. Coffee never stops pouring. Condiments find their way to the table without special requests. Orders of giant, chile-clad "Hungryman" burgers, New Mexican platters and even a few Greek specialties are delivered hot and fast. The fries are scrumptious, and so are the old-fashioned milkshakes. (Alibi Staff, August 11, 2010) Add a Review View/Add Reviews [ 1 ] |

Meanwhile, on what might as well be Star Trek: The Next Generation's Halloween episode, Dr. Crusher goes to her grandmother's funeral on Planet Scotland, and she ends up making out with Grandma Howard's ghost lover, who for some reason is also Dracula from The Monster Squad. He lives in a candle that ends up on the Enterprise, and so he needs to transport himself up to the ship (because ghosts can do that, apparently) so he can get back in the candle and suck the life force out of the next descendant of the line. Because he lives off the female members of this specific lineage, I think. Oh, also the Enterprise is covered in a dense fog, because of course it is.
Okay. First of all, someone on the writing staff must of really hated Gates McFadden. I know that most of season seven is terrible, but the ghost-ship Celts-in-space romance novel of a clustercrap is embarrassing even after "Paul Sorvino Is Worf's Brother" or "Picard Wonders If He Accidentally Made Out with a Guy During the Commercials." McFadden deserves better! She was a Muppeteer, for crying out loud! And you fired her in season two only to bring her back twenty episodes later, so I think you need every episode to be "I'm sorry, please have less awful in your character." Show some respect.
And secondly…no but really, it's the rapping granny from The Wedding Singer and some kind of space ghost. If I had another point here, it was lost in the total insanity that is the home stretch of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

With OS by Petzl software, the CORE battery opens new doors: the OS by Petzl software can simply be installed in your computer and the headlamp connected to it.
It then becomes possible to adjust, in a very intuitive way and with only a few clicks, the battery life of the headlamp or the lighting level (maximum or economic mode) according to your needs.

NORTHERN MICHIGAN -- Temperatures in parts of Northern Michigan soared over the 90F degree mark Wednesday, but cooler and less humid conditions are on the way.
Winds will shift around Thursday into the weekend out of the north with passing showers and thunderstorms remaining in the forecast until at least Saturday morning before drier weather sweeps in for a majority of the weekend.
Clouds will be more extensive Thursday which will keep temperatures down from Wednesday's readings. Much of Northern Michigan will see upper-70'/low-80's Thursday. Passing showers and a few thunderstorms will pepper the area with most of those diminishing after sunset. Another round of showers and isolated thunderstorms is likely Friday afternoon.
By the weekend, rain chances will dwindle to nothing with a few showers Saturday morning ending. Saturday afternoon onward into Sunday will be dry and very pleasant for those with plans with temperatures in the 70's.

While out working at your water or wastewater treatment system be weather aware. Have a weather radio or stay tuned to your local radio station. Severe storms can pop up quick.

The black mamba is one of Africa's most dangerous and feared snakes, known for being very aggressive when disturbed. Rearing up with its head four feet above the ground, it strikes with deadly precision, delivering venom that is packed with three different kinds of toxins and is ten times more deadly than needed to kill an adult human. Without treatment the mortality rate is 100%, the highest among all venomous snakes in the world. Until now, little has been known about the black mamba's natural behavior in the wild because in Africa most people kill a black mamba on sight and feel lucky to have done so. But in the tiny country of Swaziland in southern Africa, a team of herpetologists has an entirely different "take" on these creatures and hopes their six-week study will change public perception of what they feel is the world's most misunderstood snake.

Shot fired at Obama campaign office in Denver
No one injured in incident
A single shot was fired Friday at an Obama campaign office in Denver, Colorado, a police spokeswoman said.
The shot resulted in no injuries, although people were in the building at the time, Denver police spokeswoman Raquel Lopez told CNN.
Police did not have a description of a suspect but did have a possible vehicle of interest, Lopez said.
A glass window was shattered, images of the scene showed.
Lopez said the Secret Service, which protects President Obama, was not involved in the investigation Friday, although the agency's involvement would depend on what Denver police find.
Obama's re-election campaign had no comment and referred questions to Denver police.
Obama was in Washington on Friday.

"Arriving by Skytrain at Surrey Central station, Bing Thom Architects' (BTA) new development dominates the landscape. With its elliptical glass tower rising 25 stories above an otherwise bleak panorama of asphalt pavement and squat concrete boxes, the project seems to have been dropped onto the site from another place and time. In a sense it has, for if the vision of a new metropolis is to be realized here, then this project is surely a glimpse into the future."
– Jim Taggart, www.canadianarchitect.com
Once across the street and at the base of the immaculately carved sculpture of glass, visitors are immediately awed by the sheer size of the glass tower and curved glass façade encompassing the entire courtyard out front. There is then a multitude of entrances to consider: is coffee needed from the easily accessible blends, or is a more potent potion craved from Surrey Central Pub. Perhaps your visit entails a more educational purpose, and one of the other creatively lit, glass door entrances would be more appealing.
Now inside, the cold crisp British Columbia morning instantly abates and you find yourself inside the architectural wonder. Now standing inside the massive atrium of glass and light to your right, a bank of eight elevators sit waiting to take you to the twenty some odd floors, housing everything from University offices, to government offices, to JP Morgan offices [Access given only to the select few.] To your left the entrance to the mall – creatively nestled into this amazing structure: shopping for shoes? Try Foot Locker or Payless. Hungry? Try the food court. Clothing? Zellers and many others. Then in front of you sits the wide entrance to the SFU surrey campus, where students frantically finish papers, joke about classes, perform plays, attend lectures, and wreak havoc by frightening first years with horror stories of the hardships to come.
Not only are the options many, within the 1.7 million sq. ft of multi-use space, but the fashion in which the numerous facilities were painstakingly fit together is a wondrous feat all on its own. The actual floors of the tower offices and a majority of the SFU campus are actually hollow – about 2-3 feet thick – allowing all ventilation and electrical work to be done underneath your very feet. This hollow floor also gives way to the constantly accessible power outlets, scattered at nearly every workstation and break-time hangout, for all those 'laptoppers' out there.
Once up the stairs of SFU into what is known as the Mezzanine, the eyes immediately shoot upwards to the massive inverted cone of steel anchoring and wood. [Commonly referred to by the students as the "death ray" or "kingpin"]
This statement which encompasses the huge circular skylight above it is actually a structural masterpiece. The configuration in which it is created offers the uniquely designed ceiling a flexible support in lieu of an earthquake. [The steel cables offer flexibility, not unlike the swaying of tall reinforced buildings] Similarly down the galleria [rightly nicknamed "the boat"] also has smaller, "kingpins" all along its length creating a spine of earthquake support, a "backbone" if you will. This galleria was actually designed to mimic an inverted hull of a boat. The wood - in the spine and the major "kingpin" - has been compacted and is said to offer more strength than steel. The "boat" at nearly 140 metres in length and 30 metres at its widest point is completely open from the ceiling to the mall, five floors below. The two sides of the galleria are, at one end, connected by three tiers of bridges which, for many, offer the best view of this amazing structure.
The walls of the galleria are unique from any other as they curve smoothly from floor to ceiling, with wood slates creating a very cozy feeling, above the three to five floor drop, so close at hand.
The front entrances, which guides the multitude of professionals, students, teachers, and many more, is a carved glass wall of 25 metres in height held up by beautiful wood-steel supports, and is capped by a huge curving, sculpted layer of concrete. It then extends upwards into the massive tower of steel and floor-to-ceiling widows, which curves majestically into the sky, ending with a prominent cloud piercing point. The Surrey Central logo is tacked neatly to the building at this gut wrenching height.
This building is a must see for anyone coming to visit the lower mainland. Not only is it big, new, and welcoming, but it also offers a treat for your eyes in its complexity and unique design.

DMA Nonprofit Federation Hosts 2006 Washington Nonprofit ConferenceWashington, DC, November 16, 2005 Nonprofit organizations from around the country will gather in Washington, DC in February for two days of educational sessions, dynamic keynote presentations, roundtable discussions, and networking events. The Direct Marketing Association Nonprofit Federations (DMANF) 2006 Annual Washington Nonprofit Conference will take place on February 16th and 17th at the JW Marriott Hotel. Now in its 17th year, the conference provides an unparalleled opportunity for professionals to discuss the latest trends and techniques that will help their organizations navigate the changing landscape for nonprofit fundraising build new and stronger relationships with donors. "Were excited about this years conference, which we think will provide a much-needed forum for the exchange of ideas on the fundraising and marketing needs of today, especially in the wake of recent events that have affected all nonprofits, whether or not their immediate missions are focused on disaster relief," said DMANF Executive Director Senny Boone. The conferences 28-plus sessions will provide fundamentals as well as advanced instruction for developing fundraising capabilities and to maximize the potential of ongoing donor relationships. Strategies and techniques will be offered for messaging, creative, database marketing, integrated fundraising, and program evaluation. On February 15th, special pre-conference workshops will offer both an "advanced master class" and a "direct response fundraising 101" for those new in the field or wanting to learn the latest tips and techniques. Keynote speakers and conference presenters will provide inside perspectives to help nonprofit professionals learn from the successes, and sometimes the mistakes, of other charity fundraising programs. This years featured speakers include Special Olympics Chairman Timothy P. Shriver, and fundraising advisory J. Walker Smith, President of Yankelovich, Inc. New for this year, the conference will introduce The Nonprofit Professional Exchange, which is designed to let nonprofit professionals speak with peers directly in an interactive forum. Each of four sessions will revolve around a single, exploratory topic. A qualified facilitator will assure an environment where ideas are exchanged freely, concerns are expressed openly, and relationship-building is encouraged. Conference Information and registration is available at www.nonprofitfederation.orgEarly-Bird Registration ($100 off) ends January 13. ### About the DMANF Since 1982, the DMA Nonprofit Federation and its predecessor organizations have been aggressive and effective advocates for nonprofits in postal, regulatory, legislative, and accountability issues. It has led the way in professional education, networking, and industry advancement. The Federation is the premier agent for improving public awareness and receptivity to direct/interactive marketing-driven philanthropy, and is the top brand among all associations and advocacy groups working on behalf of nonprofits in this area. With more than 300 members, the DMANF is one of the largest member segments of the Direct Marketing Association About the DMA The Direct Marketing Association (www.the-dma.org) is the leading global trade association of business and nonprofit organizations using and supporting direct marketing tools and techniques. DMA advocates industry standards for responsible marketing, promotes relevance as the key to reaching consumers with desirable offers, and provides cutting-edge research, education, and networking opportunities to improve results throughout the entire direct marketing process. Founded in 1917, DMA today has more than 4,800 corporate, affiliate, and chapter members from the US and 46 other nations, including 55 companies listed on the Fortune 100. In 2005, companies will spend more than $161 billion on direct marketing in the United States. Measured against total US sales, these advertising expenditures are expected to generate $1.85 trillion in increased sales in 2005, or 7% of the $26 trillion in total sales in the US economy (which includes intermediate sales). All together, direct marketing will account for 10.3% of total US GDP in 2005. The Power of Direct: Relevance. Responsibility. Results. |

Torque or Maui. We try and keep Torque *really* simple (just some queues to let a couple of applications select a walltime) and do all the smarts in Maui/Moab. For what we do we have to use Moab, Maui didn't have some of the capabilities we needed. One thing we *really* like is the fact that Torque's pbs_mom can run a health check script and then if that reports an error (say "ERROR /tmp full") then it gets passed back to the pbs_server and Moab will mark the node as down until that error clears. This keeps a node with problems from taking jobs meaning you can get to work on it sooner. Ours checks everything from SMART errors, MCEs, disk space through to if the node needs rebooting for a kernel upgrade. If you're not using Moab then you can instead simply get your health check script to run pbsnodes to mark the node offline (remembering to use the -N message set an appropriate message). cheers, Chris -- Christopher Samuel - (03) 9925 4751 - Systems Manager The Victorian Partnership for Advanced Computing P.O.

So I started Part 2 of my dry eye bulletin tonight and ended up writing a little stream-of-consciousness lecture to eye doctors on the subject of dry eye and depression.
It wasn't planned, and I don't write well late at night without my lenses in, but it's a start. And I know this is really long, but it occurred to me after I sent it out to post it here for comment. I would love to hear from people who have experienced depression from dry eye how your doctors could best help.
Do you have a patient with what appears to be mild or moderate clinical signs of MGD or classic dry eye but who seems to be seriously overreacting? Very depressed? Angry? Unduly frustrated? Abnormally anxious? A patient that is terrified every new treatment wont work or will have dangerous side effects? One who is compulsive about wanting to try every emerging treatment approach while failing to give standard treatments enough time to kick in? One for whom you are the fourth or fifth eye doctor theyve seen so far and you suspect not the last? One that doesnt seem to ever feel better even when their clinical findings are improving? One you dread seeing because you know neither of you will walk away from the appointment satisfied?
To you, their pain complaints may not make sense. Their corneas arent sloughing off. They dont seem to be getting erosions. Youve got people in much worse shape who arent giving you any melodramatic complaints. You dont see any reason for the kind of pain theyre describing, and even if it were that bad, why are they losing it like this?
Welcome to the world of dry eye pain and depression. I want to challenge you today to think about how you view these patients. When they pass a certain point where they are, in your judgment, not behaving rationally, it is all too easy to write them off to determine that their problem is more in their head than in their eyes.
And maybe it is. But it didnt start that way. Most of these people were really quite normal before their first experience with corneal pain. But suppose the problem in their head now exceeds the problem in their eyes does that let you off the hook? As long as you make sure their corneas are safe from true harm, and maybe suggest they see a shrink, is that sufficient?
Your dry eye patient is not a pair of disembodied eyeballs. S/hes a whole person, and you are their doctor and you are, or if not you should be, better equipped than anyone else in their life to understand how their eye problem has escalated into something involving more than their eyes. When you see the signs of mental disturbance, you cannot, you just cannot wash your hands of it. Sure, you wouldn't ever actually discharge them as a patient, but continuing to treat them while failing to take them seriously may be at least as harmful in the state they are in.
Why am I saying all this? Because I have talked to hundreds of depressed and dozens of suicidal dry eye patients over the years. There is a wicked combination of factors that conspire to send these people over the edge into severe depression. High on the list is the fact that their eye doctors (yes, most of them have been to several by now) did not seem to take their pain seriously. Im sure their doctors didnt intend to be heartless or callous. They just didnt understand, were probably frustrated and didnt know how to handle it.
So how DO you handle it?
I could probably write a book on this, but for today I will limit it to four practical suggestions:
1. Listen well to their symptoms, probe, and seriously consider believing them. Or at least fake it well.
Ophthalmology pays a lot of lip service to the disparity between dry eye signs and symptoms in medical literature.
In clinical practice, most patients experience is the opposite: when there are no corroborating clinical signs that appear equal in magnitude to reported symptoms, doctors dont believe the symptoms are that severe. Its that simple. Yet we know for a fact that there are people, perfectly normal well balanced otherwise healthy people, whose corneas look pretty much OK yet who are suffering corneal pain burning and other sensations we dont really know why that is anywhere from really irritating to truly debilitating. I have talked to these people every day, all over the country, for years. Theyre not all faking it.
If you dont appear to take your patients dry eye pain seriously, it may have an impact you never imagined. Why? Because you are the only one they most expect and need to do so! Their family and friends cant understand it. Their psychiatrist cant understand it. Fair enough, sort of. But, since its eyeball related, shouldnt their eye doctor understand it? Thus reasons the dry eye patient and walks away confused and frightened, and in many cases eventually hopeless.
In practice, of course, eye doctors dont really get dry eye pain either yet. Its a work in progress. So I invite you to be progressive.
2. Use OSDI.
Your patient can download it from my site at this link:
(or google dry eye osdi and it will come right up). Better yet make copies for them. Encourage them to complete this questionnaire before every appointment, and always put it in their file. Its quick and easy. Its not perfect, but its adequate and scientifically validated. It gives you both an objective basis to measure how they are doing in terms of symptoms, not signs. It gives you numbers instead of vague descriptions, and it gives them a sense of validation: that how they feel and how their symptoms affect them matters.
It gives you a starting point for conversation, and a chance at speaking the same language.
3. Do not avoid broaching mental health topics when necessary, but use great sensitivity when doing so.
It is common for dry eye patients to suffer from clinical depression for a period. I would guess 80-90% of the people Ive come in contact with have been on antidepressants or antianxiety meds many for the first time in their life during their initial onset of dry eye symptoms.
But for some it hits harder than others and sends them into a dangerous spiral. I have known many people who reached a point where their head problem (depression/anxiety/etc) had clearly eclipsed their eye problem. When they get to that point, they are truly in a pitiable state because the anxiety interferes with their ability to make rational medical treatment decisions, interferes with their compliance, and interferes with their relationship with you, their doctor. When these patients have lost the ability to advocate for themselves rationally, they need your help and compassion more than ever. Some of them are in or are rapidly headed for despair. A surprising number are suicide risks and you may never even realize it.
This is a very difficult area to tackle. Your patient may be in clear need of psychiatric treatment. But how do you suggest this without implying that their problem is all in their head which is the very last thing they need to hear right now? Thats where steps 1 and 2 come in. When your patient knows that you actually really take their eye pain seriously, they will be much more receptive to your suggestions about their head.
A practical note: Dry eye patients often fear that antidepressants will make their eyes drier because some do, for some people. So if their head state is hurting them more than their eye state, and their healthcare team is in agreement that they really need treatment, they may need extra guidance, reassurance and encouragement that only you can give them.
4. Help and encourage your patient to find and employ practical means of pain management.
Understandably, for most of you (I know there are many exceptions, of course), this is not your area of expertise. You diagnose. You prescribe drugs. You put in plugs. You do surgeries. You do not plumb the depths of day to day symptom management how-tos, from the sleep goggles to the moisture chamber sunglasses to the cold compresses to the workplace modifications. You dont have time and you dont really perceive it to be your job. Yet just one of these things might make a really big difference to a really distressed patient.
Perhaps you have someone on staff (I think a lot of you have at least one woman on staff who has dry eye) who can be a point person in your practice for rounding up information on the practical gizmos that make life easier for the dry eye patient. Maybe keep a few samples of your favorite things or an info sheet to let patients know where to get them. Addressing this need is a great way to generate some really grateful patients in general but the reason I bring it up here is that it will help the neediest patients feel that their needs are being taken seriously which will help them in their emotional recovery.
These special needs dry eye patients need everything you can do to help them limp from one day to the next till they come out the other side of the Dry Eye Depression cycle. Be part of their team.

XMM-Newton Essentials
The European Space Agency's (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESA's second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations.
Since Earth's atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis.

X-ray Symposium: 1st Announcement
Hot gas sloshing in a galactic cauldron
, 18-Nov-2013
Galaxies are social beasts that are mostly found in groups or clusters - large assemblies of galaxies that are permeated by even larger amounts of diffuse gas. With temperatures of 10 million degrees or more, the gas in galaxy groups and clusters is hot enough to shine brightly in X-rays and be detected by ESA's XMM-Newton X-ray observatory.

Weakling magnetar reveals hidden strength
, 14-Aug-2013
Astronomers using ESA's XMM-Newton have measured the magnetic field in a small surface feature of a magnetar for the first time. With a new technique, they have now revealed a strong, localised surface magnetic field in the magnetar that had the lowest measured dipolar field. The discovery yields conclusive proof that magnetars conceal some of the strongest magnetic fields in the Universe.

Anime Reviews: Desperate Death and Melancholy Love: It's an Anime Spring
Shigurui: The Complete Series Set in the year 1622, the world of the Tokugawa shogunate where peace reigns and ronin wander, samurai are increasingly defined not by the mortality of the battlefield, but the reputation of their dojo and the mystery surrounding the sword techniques therein. Here our anime-glazed eyes find Gennosuke Fujiki and Seigen Irako. Desperate to both master the blade and to succeed their sensei in the secrets of his sword, a bloody competition is born that will devour the lives of the Kogan style. OK, so you've seen The Seven Samurai, Ran, The Hidden Blade, or one of the many samurai movies out there. Well, forget them! Shigurui redefines the samurai flick. Based on the manga of Takayuki Yamaguchi, this story is inspired by the collected wisdom of the samurai Tsunetomo Yamamoto, ultimately published as Hagakure. Considered a heretic text for its paradoxes and passionate devotion to death and "shigurui," often translated as "desperateness" -- but its kanji may also convey death's inevitability -- Yamaguchi unleashes a world burning in its desire for the perfect cut, as well as a near lust for the pain and death, whether it's one's own or an adversary, that must follow the draw. There are no clichés here; no noble samurai; no path to enlightenment. There is only blind faith in the sword, as the world moves away from it. From the madness of the characters, their devotion to the perfect cut, to the sheer artistry of the anime itself, the notion of beauty in death reaches disturbing heights in Shigurui. This is a MUST SEE!

Bleach, Vol. 14 & 15 Seriously, who doesn't know the Bleach saga? The story of Ichigo Kurosaki, the substitute soul-reaper, has descended upon the Earth like a new religion! Whether it is his quest to save Rukia, the threat of the Bount, or the inevitable return of Aizen and the Arrancar, fans of all ages continue to fantasize about mastering their own zanpakto and ultimately reaching bankai -- just spend a little time with cosplayers, you'll often find yourself in the land of Bleach. Long story short, a wounded Rukia Kuchiki, a reaper hunting souls in the land of the living, bestows half of her power upon Ichigo so that he may destroy a deadly soul. The following chain of events is, well, anime history! Recently Viz released two DVDs (v. 14 and 15) from the classic, nay, essential season three. Not only can we relive the climaxing rescue of Rukia from execution, let alone the much-anticipated confrontation between Ichigo and Byakuya, but also an unexpected exhibition of soul-reaper power. Even if the Ichigo-Rukia storyline isn't quite your thing, the revelation of Yamamoto's bankai and the battle between Yoruichi and Soifon is reason enough to drop a little cash. But perhaps the simple resolution of Bleach's initial story arc, Rukia's rescue, is the true gem. That delicate point between finality and the infinite, unknowable future elicits a sweet melancholy. So, although Bleach is well beyond its third season, take a walk down memory lane and pick up these DVDs. Much like finding an old lover, it's quite easy to rediscover and relive the exhilaration.
2009 TV Series (episodes 54-58 and 59-63). Director: Noriyuki Abe. 125 minutes (each). DVD, bilingual, $24.98 (each). Distributor. Viz Media.
The Wallflower: Complete Collection, Part 1 & 2 "Unlucky in love" is no way to describe the life of Sunako Nakahara. She's damaged, neurotic, paranoid and borderline psychotic! The cause: once upon a time she confessed her love to a boy. Unfortunately, "ugly" was the only response heard, resulting in a rejection of anything pertaining to beauty. So, concerned about her sloppy trappings, bad hygiene and anti-social behavior, her aunt sends her to live in her large mansion. But there is just one catch: four of the hottest boys in school reside therein, and they've been charged with turning this ugly duckling into a swan. Let the hilarity begin! The plot of The Wallflower is obviously a much used and abused storyline. There's not much room for originality there. So, all one has left are the characters. And here I was pleasurably surprised. While high school comedies are no stranger to anime, The Wallflower gives us something different. Instead of the usual loners, bad boys and martial art experts, these boys are so metro-sexual that they rival Carrie Bradshaw and her fashionable crew from Sex and the City. Androgyny pervades every pore in this mansion! Now, juxtapose Sunako's obfuscating Gothic garb, an obsession for horror, and a disturbing fetish for medical research dummies, and you've got a recipe for the comedy of opposites. Honestly, this confrontation between the beautiful and the ugly is innovative, imaginative, and filled with hyperbolic exploits. After all, one needs a little comic force just to apply the make-up! For better or worse, you're probably thinking one thing, "So, which boy in the house does she eventually fall for?" OK, to a certain extent The Wallflower is predictable in the long run. But like so many other good comedies out there, it's not about the beginning or the end. It's the comic hijinks and hyperbole in the middle that keeps us coming back for more.

The SEQ Water Grid Up a Dry Gully water education program and competition for primary and secondary students across South East Queensland is designed to challenge students to investigate how water is supplied to the community- from the Source, Store, Treat and Supply perspectives.
Students are encouraged to investigate the source of our water supplies including the water cycle and catchment management activities. A good catchment ensures good quality water!
Students can also understand the various store capabilities that exist from dams,weirs and aquifers.
Treatment across the catchment and storages is also highlighted as a vital part of the water story while conventional and advanced treatment provide an insight into what is done to clean and purify water and provide futuristic answers to our water needs via desalination or purified recycled water.
The Up A Dry Gully Program is a totally integrated water education program.
The Water Resource Portal provides a bank of resources and activities to complement classroom experiences,visits or excursions.
Teachers though accessing the website are provided with a free resource kit of supporting classroom activities, lesson plans and fact sheets.
Seqwater staff are available to visit schools or arrange excursions to one of our many Water Learning Centres to assist teachers and students participating in the program. To request a visit or to arrange an experience please call (07) 3035 5570, or email email@example.com.
Download our Teacher Introduction Letter and the Up a Dry Gully brochure, or go to our dedicated Up a Dry gully website to access the full teaching resources and register to participate today.
A poster can also be downloaded and printed to inform students about this competition.

This Week...
14 April 2012
Is it just me or did this week just come and go, like that? We had Easter, that was somewhat a disaster with the baby and toddler choosing not to get along, oh the foreshadowing, I have a feeling my hands are going to be way more full in the years to come. Oh the joys of boys...
I started working on some DIY Shoebox Lid Wall Art, It's crooked and I think I'm going to cover the solids with fabric...print mixing anyone?
I fell in love with this arrangement in our dining room, it now has a tropical feel to it, and I think it's a keeper!
I met the lovely Cate for coffee this week, and she came baring gifts from Juno and Jove for coming to the meet and greet with Kristin (here).
I don't know about you but these tulips are brighting my room, and days, they're actually just now blooming to full gorgeous-ness...I'll tweet a picture later today!
Happy Weekend, Xo

In this article, Brooke Crothers tries to argue that one should not have an ethical dilemma in purchasing products made by Apple. He is mostly speaking about the increasingly public investigations into the third party assembly factories which Apple (and other tech-sector companies) use for their products. In a somewhat joking acquiescence, Crothers even mentions that these factories often treat their assembly line workers as chattel — that is, as privately owned property. Let that sink in: he sees no issue in a company treating its workers as slaves as long as they continue to be industrial juggernauts (perhaps 'too big to fail'?). The point many are making against Apple is not limited to Apple as Crothers suggests in his 'don't stop there' attitude. What he is not expecting, though, is for people to agree with the sentiment of 'don't stop there' and actually accept the ethical implications of their consumption. Instead of pushing companies like Apple to use factories which treat their workers as human beings — whether that is in the US or elsewhere — Crothers thinks such is 'a pipe dream'.
Why? Why can't Apple and others pay their workers fair wages, accept a 'healthy' work-life balance, etc? Crothers suggests its because these companies would not find enough employees who 'live in dormitories and make a 24/7 on-call commitment to Foxconn for low wages'. No shit, Sherlock. That's because such commitments are mostly illegal in industrialised countries for a reason. If the issue holding Apple back from having factories which comply with US labour laws (we'll leave Europe's labour laws out of this for now) is that they wouldn't own slaves who can work the assembly line 15+ hours a day, 7 days a week (over 100 hours a week!), then perhaps they shouldn't be in business. That's not a employer-employee relationship; that's an owner-slave relationship. It's this lack of respect towards humans that, at best, borders on the sociopathic (at worst, it crosses well over that line).
Crothers's final excuse is that there are US-based plants which are less 'worker intensive' that utilise high tech equipment rather than millions of workers who live in on-site dormitories and are at the beck and call of an owner 24/7. Why can't, for example, Apple use such assembly line equipment (like other US-based factories)? Why can't they employ multiple shifts of people who work 40 hours a week at a livable wage? Oh, that's right: profit and consumption. Perhaps Apple thinks they would not sell as much if the price of their products rose to afford 'ethical labour practises' while keeping the same profit margins. But then, perhaps that's because the primary markets of consumption are filled with the very people who are out of work and are told they could not afford the real cost of they themselves being employed. That is, Crothers's article implies that industrial jobs are incompatible with current US labour laws because people might actually be paid for their work. And that is something which frightens companies like Apple because it means that they wouldn't be simple, mindless consumers willing to sell their kidneys for a new toy.
What I'd like to see is someone take up Crothers's rhetorical question and begin to list companies which utilise labour practises akin to slavery and the products (and parts) which are made in these conditions. Sure, Apple would be on that list. As would Motorola, Amazon, Intel, Wal-Mart, etc. However, perhaps that kind of list will make people think twice about what they buy. Perhaps, it'll lead to a revolt against treating humans as property and resources to be used then discarded.

Thermaltake, being the industry pioneer brand with expertise in PC power and thermal solutions, and continues to drive toward the corporate mission of "delivering the perfect user experience" in all segment of the market. Since the first debut of Thermaltake Level 10 GT back in January 2011, enthusiasts were overwhelmed by its ostentatious appearance and performance often missed the true spirit that Level 10 GT. This spring Level 10 GT has been camouflaged and transformed into Level 10 GT Battle edition to evoke the "battle" spirit of being a gamer and its true representation. Battle is more than the game Thermaltake began to advocate eSports at the end of 2009 in Asia, slowly expand to the rest of the world. Understood gaming is not a mindless leisure activities, it's more about the spirit of constant battling and challenge oneself in order to present a greater self which matched the spirit of Level 10 GT Battle edition. This spring, Thermaltake deploy Level 10 GT Battle Edition for game fanatics to get a closer battling experience, by camouflaged the original Level 10 GT into a military green with military print style throughout the entire chassis, realizing some of the war game base chassis mods that have been presented in the market. Not only aiding gamers to present a much personalize style as well as helping gamers to remember the sprite of Battle. Powerful and self-assured presence Since the first debut of Thermaltake Level 10 GT back in January 2011, enthusiasts and gamers were overwhelmed by its ostentatious appearance and performance. Since the appearance and performance is utterly preferred by the media, reviewers, and owners of Level 10 GT. Therefore the Level 10 GT Battle edition has maintained all the greatness of Level 10 GT, like the PitsStop 5 (EasySwap HDD bays), internal Superspeed USB 3.0 ports, Quadfans, Triple Colorshift, Coolflux, S.S.S (Smart Security System), Cableclear and TripleMax. Moreover the special design reinforcement Quicklink HDD accessories have also been implemented. With all the greatnesses of Level 10 GT plus the new military prints and logos making Level 10 GT Battle a distinctive battle machine for game fanatics to carry the love of their life. For more detail information on Level 10 GT Battle edition please visit: http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00001891
the white version is alright this is just daft. TT need to understand that disco fans are a really bad idea.
looks similar to the MW3 Mod....... http://www.computerbase.de/news/2012-03/thermaltake-zeigt-level-10-gt-military-edition/ me wonders why they all jump on the mil train
That's the problem, I don't think any human beings designed this. Going with a trained chimp and a squirrel myself. Fugly case.
yeah the white version looks better they just add new label "bla bla bla edition" on that just to take more attention coz their design (sorry) pretty bad, just like many boxes that glued into one
I don't know. They get kudos for originality and innovation (moreover two terms I usually don't associate with Thermaltake) but when I saw one in person finally at Microcenter I was very unimpressed. It was way too plastic and chinsy looking. Too large too.
Hahaha, my 15year old nephew will love this chassis. The one below must have been the inspiration...I feel so blessed!
Don't understand how Thermaltake make any money. Almost everything they produce is absolute junk and ugly.
Thermaltake actually makes decent stuff, their Armour and Element cases are "normal looking", power supply is about the same quality as some Corsairs, and they have a line of gaming peripherals under Tt eSPORTS brand.
