2005 - Bright Eyes - Digital Ash [CRACKED]
Lisandra Okumoto
Conor Oberst sends shivers down my spine, and I'm not ashamed to admit it. The straight-from-the-diary lyrics, the sudden screams and that hiccuping vibrato-- the qualities that make him seem raw and, to some, risible-- are also striking and awesome. Oberst is a strange hybrid: He's undeniably a pop star, and also undeniably an indie rocker. On the pop side, he has what music journalist Simon Reynolds identified as the power to compel your gaze, and when he gets it, those wet, penetrating eyes stare straight back. I know it makes me uncomfortable; why can't he just look at his feet and fumble with his guitar and murmur his songs from a distance?
Like seriously, I didn't think bright eyes could get much better but then I discover Digital Ash. It was always one of their albums I never touched, like People's Key or Oh Holy Fools. I decided to give it a try tho and omg it is so amazing. I love the electronic feel it has and it just feels so different from their other work, especially considering it was released the same year as I'm Wide Awake, It's Morning. It is so unique and I'm struggling to find a single album of bright eyes I listened to that I don't like, the lowest is a B teir imo and that's People's Key.
Oberst has carte blanche; he can do whatever he wants, because he doesn't care what other people think. His transition is not as graceful as Ben Gibbard's slide from the heart-on-the sleeve mope of Death Cab for Cutie to the electro-pop of the Postal Service, but Gibbard had the experienced Tamborello to co-write songs with him. Digital Ash in a Digital Urn is an experimental album and it's not going to set him back at all; in fact, it probably broadened his horizons and stretched out his creativity. While Digital Ash was a disappointment, I'm Wide Awake proves Oberst is still brilliant, a wonderful songwriter, though he might want to reconsider his path toward digital destruction.
March is Workplace Eye Health and Safety Month. Now before you think that this article may not apply to you, think again. Thousands of workers sustain job-related eye injuries each day. Though we typically associate work-related eye injuries with outdoor jobs such as construction, manufacturing, auto repair, welding, carpentry, landscaping, or electrical jobs, office jobs have also become increasingly hazardous to your eyesight.
Unfortunately, 90% of all eye injuries can be reduced in severity or prevented with proper eye protection and safety practices and 10-20% of all work-related eye injuries will cause temporary or permanent vision loss. Workplace eye safety is imperative in industries where injuries are more likely to occur such as construction or those that require the use of machinery, equipment, and generate debris that can damage eyes. The primary cause of on-the-job eye injuries include:
The average adult spends over 11 hours a day staring at digital devices whether for work or leisure. Most digital devices have LED lights that radiate blue light which can be harmful to your vision. Prolonged blue light exposure can lead to digital eye strain, dry and irritated eyes, blurred vision, difficulty focusing, eye fatigue, neck and back pain, and headaches. Over time, the prolonged usage of blue light-emitting devices can lead to retina damage such as macular degeneration or cataracts.
As we spend more time on electronic devices, we must take our vision into account. Talk to your optometrist about how much you use electronic devices during your daily work routine so that he or she may make recommendations to reduce the effects of digital eye strain.
It is important to schedule regular eye exams with your optometrist. Comprehensive eye exams are a great way to keep tabs on your eye health. Be sure to mention to your optometrist any potential work-related hazards so that your optometrist helps you prevent injury.

For some people, wearing glasses that are prescribed for specific activities, such as for computer use or for reading, helps reduce eyestrain. Your eye specialist may suggest that you take regular eye breaks to help your eyes focus at different distances.
When reading printed materials or doing close work, try to position the light source behind you and direct the light onto your page or task. If you're reading at a desk, use a shaded light positioned in front of you. The shade will keep light from shining directly into your eyes.
Use artificial tears. Nonprescription artificial tears can help prevent and relieve dry eyes. Use them even when your eyes feel fine to keep them well lubricated and prevent a recurrence of symptoms.
Check the lighting and reduce glare. Bright lighting and too much glare can strain your eyes and make it difficult to see objects on your monitor. The worst problems are generally from sources above or behind you, including fluorescent lighting and sunlight. Consider turning off some or all of the overhead lights.
Some eyestrain symptoms may be relieved by natural products, such as the omega-3 fatty acids in fish oil, but further study is needed. Talk with your eye specialist if you're considering supplements to help relieve your symptoms.

CVS is similar to carpal tunnel syndrome and other repetitive motion injuries you might get at work. It happens because your eyes follow the same path over and over. And it can get worse the longer you continue the movement.
When you work at a computer, your eyes have to focus and refocus all the time. They move back and forth as you read. You may have to look down at papers and then back up to type. Your eyes react to images constantly moving and changing, shifting focus, sending rapidly varying images to the brain. All these jobs require a lot of effort from your eye muscles. And to make things worse, unlike a book or piece of paper, the screen adds contrast, flicker, and glare. What's more, it is proven that we blink far less frequently when using a computer, which causes the eyes to dry out and blur your vision periodically while working.
