Lasik Eye Surgery

What Is LASIK?

LASIK stands for Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis.LASIK laser eye surgery is a procedure in which a thin flap of tissue is cut, and then peeled back from the very front of the cornea (this is the transparent covering over your pupil). The laser literally vapourises away some of your corneal tissue beneath the flap to make your cornea a slightly different shape which will correct your refractive error. Then the flap is placed back over the front of your eye. LASIK laser eye surgery can be used to correct short-sightedness (myopia), far-sightedness (hyperopia), and astigmatism.

Global oil supply 'far worse than admitted'

clipper's remarks: Plausible, would not be surprised if so at the transparent level. Lot of hidden oil out there. May be just for govt use, but it has been stockpiled, or not mined.

THE world is much closer to running out of oil than official estimates admit, says a whistleblower at the International Energy Agency who claims it has been deliberately underplaying a looming shortage for fear of triggering panic buying.

The senior official claims the United States has played an influential role in encouraging the watchdog to underplay the rate of decline from existing oilfields while overplaying the chances of finding new reserves.

The allegations raise serious questions about the accuracy of the organisation's latest World Energy Outlook on oil demand and supply, to be published overnight.

The outlook is used by many governments to help guide their energy and climate change policies.

In particular, the allegations cast a shadow on the prediction in the last World Economic Outlook, believed to be repeated again this year, that oil production can be raised from its present level of 83 million barrels a day to 105 million.

Leveraging Service Catalogs Throughout the Enterprise

Successful service catalogs meet the needs of users who are looking for a simple way to order services instead of a cumbersome, definition-heavy service catalog laden with extra steps. The real value to employees and customers is the ability of the service catalog to deliver services, as well as define them. The steps of the delivery process should be transparent: meet user expectations; enable identification of problems; and identify opportunities for improvement.

How Ants Make Their Nest?

Being a small creature with only 2 stomachs and 3 eyes, they can lift the burden of double of their weight. Let us see why the ants are very heralded by many people and cultures. This experiment has been carried out by the investigation unit at NASA in Florida, USA, in which NASA wants to see how ants make their nests

First, ants are placed in a closed container seen as an aquarium with only a light illuminated by ultra violet (light purple representing the sun) and the transparent medium gel (having the properties of minerals and nutrients as the soil

After a few minutes away passed, ants were beginning to work, making the holes of small colonies to help other ants move in the “land”. These ants from my opinion want to escape from the hot sun

As a result, it forms various types of small alleys connecting roads in the soil which is indeed a very unique arts

they are also seen to work closely together to achieve their goal of making their nests for comfortable.

Oakland Mayor Ron Dellums needs to explain tax mess or resign

Fri, 06 Nov 2009 17:04:01 GMT

clipped by: Lexica
clipper's remarks: More:

The debt owed to this city by Dellums is incalculable and there is nothing but pride - or arrogance - standing between him and a full public disclosure of the facts surrounding his tax problem.

Anything short of that constitutes unacceptable behavior by a public official and violates the public contract between an elected official and the constituency the office serves. I tried to reach the mayor for comment - but he declined to speak with me, his press secretary Paul Rose told me.

No one has asked Dellums to disclose anything that any other politician in the same set of circumstances wouldn't be asked to explain.

If he cannot provide a public explanation for a controversy that has become another national embarrassment for this city, it's difficult to see how continuing in his current position is going to be good for anyone - either him or Oakland's citizens.

Clip Source: www.sfgate.com

Oakland Mayor Ronald V. Dellums owes the residents of this great city an explanation.

And if he can't provide one, he owes his resignation.

He is a hometown hero entrusted with the highest public office Oakland can offer. His $239,000 tax bill is peanuts compared with the weight of his responsibility as Oakland mayor.

Anyone can make an honest mistake, and if that's all this is, then no harm, no foul.

But Oakland residents deserve to know why the mayor was unable to handle his legal obligation to pay income taxes, because it's a reflection of his ability to handle responsibility, including the management of a city that has placed its trust, and a whole lot more, in his hands.

If Dellums can't come clean with the people who put him in office, the same people he promised would benefit from the transparent operations of the mayor's office, there is no reason left for residents to believe anything else he has to say.

Madeleine McCann: Online Video Appeal

clipper's remarks: Video did not clip for some reason. It is at the site. Interpol - the gateway into 187 countries, Europol and national police agencies worldwide are supporting the initiative which is in seven different languages – English, Arabic, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Spanish.

Clip Source: news.aol.co.uk

An online viral appeal was released today to help find British girl Madeleine McCann who disappeared in Portugal on May 3, 2007. She would now be aged six.

The message is the work of the UK's Child Exploitation and Online Protection (CEOP) Centre which worked with the McCanns on the video and the ideas behind its distribution and is not the result of any new police intelligence.

A Minute for Madeleine...

Long suffering parents Kate and Gerry McCann have had to deal with the pain and anguish of losing their daughter Madeleine every day and have not given up hope of finding their little girl.

Detainees at Club Gitmo Getting H1N1 Vaccine Before You

clipper's remarks: Well, why the hell not.....they already have personal chefs, cable TV and free movies. I'm sure that between prayer time on their new prayer rugs and beach volleyball tournaments they can manage to fit the vaccinations into their grueling schedules.

How about we send the liberals down there to administer the H1N1 personally since they already have such high regard for those murdering terrorists.....

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Pentagon will offer the H1N1 vaccination to detainees at the U.S. facility at Guantanamo Bay, officials there said Friday.

The Pentagon made the decision based on U.S. government assessments that people held in detention facilities are at high risk for the pandemic, said Maj. Diana R. Haynie, a spokeswoman for Joint Task Force Guantanamo Bay, which is in charge of holding the suspected terrorists.

"Detainees at JTF Guantanamo are considered to be at higher risk and therefore they will be offered the H1N1 vaccination," Haynie said.

"JTF Guantanamo conducts safe, humane, legal and transparent care and custody of detainees. As such, we must provide detainees the medical care necessary to maintain their health," she said.

Base officials had not received the vaccinations and did not know when they were expected to arrive, Haynie said.

Some of the detainees have already voluntarily taken the seasonal flu shot, Haynie said.

Has anyone else come across this SECRET

Petition to Obama government to disclose secret copyright treaty

Rishab sez, "Knowledge Ecology International is organising a petition to President Obama to make the US position in negotiations on the secret Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement transparent to the public. Boing Boing readers may remember previous posts on ACTA, the 'throw people in jail for sharing' agreement being developed in secret by rich countries who find the semi-public consultations in forums like WIPO tiresome."

Obama's administration has refused to disclose the drafts of ACTA on the grounds of "national security" (yes, really!), but we know from leaks and memos that it includes universal surveillance of the net; mandatory loss of Internet connections without trial for households where one member is accused of violating copyright; and a duty to search your laptop and personal devices at the border for infringing material.
