Eyesight and Computers

People who spend much time on a computer have reasons to be concerned about their eyesight. Looking at a computer screen for long periods of time causes many eye problems such as: eye strain, dry eyes, light sensitivity, blurred vision, and headaches.

There are many people who work on a computer for a good portion of their day; yet many don't realize there are things they can do to help prevent these symptoms from occurring. Something as simple as blinking more frequently can help reduce dryness and irritation. It has been found that, "When working at a computer, people blink less frequently — about five times less than normally, according to studies."

There are ways to help prevent bad eyesight due to spending time on a computer. People need to be proactive in following the advice that is available and save their vision before it is gone.

Aggie Fans

There will always be extremes when it comes to sports fans. Aggie fans have been known to have a bad reputation, but I think the fans at Utah State are civil and just trying to have a good time.

Although Utah State fans can get a little crazy they are still being respectful to the athletes. As Anthony Thomas, member of the Boise State team, said, "The one thing I do respect about Utah State fans is they are rowdy and they get on you, but they also are respectful. They don't go overboard or use any racist comments. It's all good clean, fun. That's good for college basketball."

Aggie fans, from my point of view, are college students out looking to have fun supporting their athletics.
