Show Are you one of the people that care for the future of our youth and do you want to DO SOMETHING SOME-THING to improve their opportunities? opportu-nities? Here is a new and exciting chance to touch or influence lives for good. A couple of years ago, Sprin-gville Sprin-gville citizens, concerned about providing a safe place for activities, activi-ties, tutoring and fun learning opportunities for our city's youth after school's hours, became involved with the Nebo School District in writing a grant that would finance the hiring of personnel per-sonnel to design and implement such a program. I Representatives of the Spring-ville Spring-ville City Council and the Nebo School District have hired a director, Claudia E. Jensen, a Springville Citizen, for the only after-school program in utah County that is exclusively for teenagers, students of Spring-ville's Spring-ville's Middle School and Junior High School. The previously mentioned grant will cover the expenses to employ the director, the instructors instruc-tors and the support services of the police officer that already works in both of those schools. The city is providing the location, office furniture, elec tricity, water, Internet connections, connec-tions, as well as computers for the students. The Nebo School District is supplying a cell phone for the program, computers and printer for the office, the services of the district accountant and lawyer, the printing of business cards and brochure and safe transportation for the program's field trips. "Our goal is to successfully establish a fun, uplifting and safe after-school program for our teenagers to come to find friends, academic support and enrichment activities that will allow them to grow and develop their talents and skills," said Jensen, Director of SCORS (Springville City Outreach to Students). Springville City is providing the building for SCORS. The old Maxum Building on Main Street is experiencing a transformation and coming alive to welcome up to 60 students. The various backgrounds back-grounds of the director and instructors in-structors will make it possible for our youth to take part in sports, games, drama, music, art, journalism, jour-nalism, photography, crafts, gardening, animal care, etc. These kinds of activities will be available after homework time is over. The program will operate Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays Thur-sdays from 3 to 6 p.m. every week starting this month. SCORS needs the support and help of everyone in our community commu-nity and in our county. "Because we are a non-profit organization, offering free services and under a grant that does not cover the expenses for supplies needed for our program to function, we will build the program with the supplies sup-plies donated by the community and its businesses. We also need help fixing walls, laying floors and cleaning the building so it can be available as soon as possible possi-ble to accommodate our youth," said Jensen. Jensen has already given the building a newer look patching and painting walls with the helpful hands of SCORS instructors. They are all very committed young people, with a strong vision of helping, guiding and loving the youth of Springville. Spring-ville. They can't wait to see the positive influence that this youth program will bring to our community. com-munity.

Caywood Several years ago, I heard some say that a spin off advantage advan-tage associated with the research ,done by NASA was how it has benefitted health care with new technologies. This statement applies to eye care and I have seen those advances during my career. In October of 2002 the FDA approved Wave front Guided Ablations for Lasik. This latest advance allows for better Lasik procedures than ever before. Instrumentation and technology continue to improve to offer greater safety and predictability for refractive surgery. The ability to perform Wave Front Guided Ablations depends on two items. First, is the ability to measure imperfections in . a "wave" of light as it passes through the eje,:;..Second, that information " is programmed into"" the laser to fdfrecTTor the"limpe'r-"! fections. These imperfections are called "higher order aberrations." Currently, Cur-rently, glasses and contact lenses do not correct for higher order aberrations. The end result is potentially better vision with Lasik than ever before. This idea is new to laser surgery, but it has been utilized in astronomy for many years. Telescopes, such as the Hubble Telescope, have utilized this technology to clear up aberrations in images of distant stars and galaxies. There are applications beyond Lasik as well. I hear frequently from people who basically see 2020 with their glasses or contacts, con-tacts, but find difficulty with distortion in their vision, such as with night driving. Could clearing up higher order aberrations with contact lenses or glasses be a reality in the near future? Doing so may allow for visual correction to better than 2020. Visual acuities of 2010, or 208 may be possible. possi-ble. Clearing up higher order aberrations may be the largest advance in visual acuity correction correc-tion in decades.
