THROW AWAY YOUR GLASSES AND CONTACT LENSES!

by 8hh1＠8hh1ml.net

IF YOU ARE NEARSIGHTED (MYOPIC) AND WANT TO SEE CLEARLY IN THE DISTANCE WITHOUT GLASSES OR CONTACT LENSES - YOU HAVE A CHOICE!!!! Myopia Control Network Services is dedicated to assisting in the education of patients and potential patients regarding the exciting techniques currently available to control, and in many cases, to completely eliminate, nearsightedness (called Myopia). Many major medical health plans cover part or all of the diagnostic and treatment procedures. Numerous sophisticated and high-tech procedures have been perfected which offer potential for dramatic improvement in vision. Opportunities for Myopia Control can be: 1) Non-Surgical A-Orthokeratology: A series of rigid gas permeable contact lenses are fitted in progressive stages to gently reshape the eyes front curvature (the cornea) to improve visual errors. Moderate to low amounts of Myopia. No pain B-Vision Therapy/Orthokeratology: Combining Vision Therapy with Orthokeratology greatly increases success of treatment. The Vision Therapy part is also divided into a series of in-office and home training procedures to enhance visual efficiency skills. Young people ages seven to eighteen should not have refractive surgery and this method of treatment prevents future problems. Moderate to low amounts of Myopia. No pain. 2) Surgical A-RK-Radial Keratotomy: Radial incisions are made to flatten the cornea. Moderate to low amounts of Myopia. Minimal pain. One to seven days recovery. B-ALK-Automated Lamellar Keratectomy: The central part of the cornea is folded back, modified and then reattached. High to moderate amounts of Myopia. Minimal pain. One to seven days recovery. C-PRK-Photorefractive Keratectomy: An excimer laser is used to vaporize tissue allowing the cornea to be resculptured. Moderate to low amounts of Myopia. Pain one week. One to six months recovery. D-LASIK-Laser in-Situ Keratomileusis: "Flap and Zap" Combination of ALK which creates the flap and PRK which uses the laser to zap the cornea. High to low amounts of Myopia. Minimal pain. One to four days recovery. If your eye care professional doesn't offer a full range of Myopia Control procedures, ask them to contact MCNS. Be fully informed about ALL options before making any decision regarding Myopia Control. THE PATIENT HAS THE RIGHT TO MAKE A CHOICE. Visit our Web Site -- http://www.mcns.com and e mail us to have a choice. MCNS would be glad to answer any questions by e mail but please give us your telephone number and address of where you live or work. e mail address - eye(a)mcns.com If you would like to be removed, just type remove in the subject line.

by CZACHESZ, Gyongyi

Ismet kedvezmenyesen lehet hozzajutni 2 konyvhoz (a felev soran mindketto kotelezo olvasmany lesz): 1. Eysenck - Keane: Kognitiv pszichologia. Bolti ara: 1.400Ft+AFA. Nalunk 960Ft (AFA-val). 150 db konyvet mar elhoztunk, fizetes utan atvehetok nalam, a 315. szobaban. 2. Damasio: Descartes tevedese. Bolti ara 2.400Ft lenne, nalunk - ugy nez ki - felaron kaphato majd. Ezt meg nem hoztuk el, de varom az elojelentkezeseket e-mailen/szemelyesen. (Ja, ez vonatkozik az elozo konyvre is: ha vki akar venni konyvet, csak meg nem tud fizetni, felirom az elojelentkezesi listara.) Czachesz Gyongyi

CFP: NATO Advanced Study Institute - COMPUTATIONAL HEARING

by Steve Greenberg

*************************************************************************** ***************************************************************************** * * * NATO Advanced Study Institute * * * * COMPUTATIONAL HEARING * * July 1 - July 12 1998 * * Il Ciocco (Tuscany), Italy * * * * * * This Advanced Study Institute (ASI) will focus on integrating recent * * advances in computational modeling and analysis with more traditional * * perspectives on hearing, with the intent of fostering a more computational * * approach towards studies of auditory function, physiology and anatomy, as * * well as defining emerging fields of inquiry derived from these innovative * * methods. * * * * Although our sense of hearing has long been the subject of intensive * * scientific inquiry, computational methods have only recently been * * applied to this intellectual domain with the degree of sophistication * * and systematic development required for achieving significant gains in * * scientific understanding. The complexity of the physiological and * * anatomical substrates of auditory function, in concert with the highly * * mathematical nature of hearing's physical bases, provide an ideal * * scientific application for the newly emergent techniques pertaining to * * scientific visualization and auralization. * * * * Further progress in hearing science requires the sort of computational * * techniques now being developed at various sites around the world for * * modeling and visualization of complex auditory phenomena. The design of * * future-generation hearing prostheses, speech recognition systems and * * audio technologies all vitally depend on such methodology and the * * understanding resulting from its intelligent application. * * * * The ASI will survey the traditional domains of hearing research, * * including anatomy, physiology, psychoacoustics, speech and music, but * * from a largely computational perspective. Several topics, such as * * auditory scene analysis, speech recognition and auditory processing * * under adverse acoustic conditions are inherently computational in * * nature. Other subjects, such as the physiology of the auditory * * periphery, have witnessed a significant amount of computational effort * * over the past decade and a half. The goal is to provide a coherent and * * comprehensive perspective on hearing that is integrated with state-of- * * the-art computational modeling and visualization techniques that can * * serve as the basis for a new generation of auditory research. * * ________________________________________________________________________ * * * * ASI Faculty will include: Jont Allen (AT&T Research, USA), Jens Blauert * * (Bochum, Germany), Martin Cooke (Sheffield, UK), Ted Evans (Keele, UK), * * Steven Greenberg (ICSI, USA), Gerald Langner (Darmstadt, Germany), * * Stephen McAdams (Paris V, IRCAM, France), Roy Patterson (CNBH, * * Cambridge, UK), Christoph Schreiner (UC-San Francisco, USA), Shihab * * Shamma (Maryland, USA), James Simmons (Brown, USA), Malcolm Slaney * * (Interval Research & Stanford, USA), Quentin Summerfield (MRC IHC, * * Nottingham, UK), Marianne Vater (Potsdam, Germany), Jeffrey Winer (UC- * * Berkeley, USA), Eric Young (Johns Hopkins, USA) * * * * Organizing Committee: Martin Cooke, Steven Greenberg, * * Gerald Langner, Malcolm Slaney * * * * ======================================================================== * * * * IMPORTANT DATES (1998) * * * * January 15 Poster Presentation Abstracts and Preliminary Registration * * Application for Financial Subsidy * * (principally for junior scientists and students) * * * * March 1 Participant Registration (final deadline) * * * * April 15 4-page, camera-ready paper (based on poster presentation) * * * * For further information contact: * * Steven Greenberg, International Computer Science Institute, * * 1947 Center Street, Berkeley, CA 94704, USA * * FAX: (510) 643-7684 (ATT: Computational Hearing ASI) * * Internet: ComHear(a)icsi.berkeley.edu * * WWW: http://www.icsi.berkeley.edu/real/ComHear98 * * web site contains additional information, including * * an application form and the provisional program * * * ***************************************************************************** ***************************************************************************
