"Through arts-based research, I studied my experience as a music therapy intern with major depressive disorder. I explored how a depressive episode impacted my work as an intern and how the episode affected my transition from intern to therapist. During the internship, I recorded improvisations to process the depressive episode. Two years after I completed the internship, I revisited these improvisations with prose poem responses. After finding themes and significant phrases, I composed a song entitled "Nobody Sees Me". This arts-based project focuses on my unique experience, but the project has professional and academic implications. The project demonstrates a need for mental health services for graduate students, and my personal journey may provide support for music therapy interns and students with disorders of mental health." -- Page 4

"What nozzle should I use?" That''s a complex question. And the answer to the question is becoming more complicated, especially with greater emphasis on tank-mixtures to deliver multiple effective pesticides against target pests. Some of the many nozzles on the market can reduce particle drift. Would these nozzles be right for you? Whether a low-drift nozzle fits your program depends upon your spraying needs and operation. Drift-reducing nozzles typically produce larger droplets and penetrate the plant canopy when target plants are larger, but larger droplets may shatter and be lost to the soil surface when using contact pesticides and target plants are small. Nozzles that produce smaller droplets provide better coverage and the pesticide is retained better on the leaf surface, especially when the target plant is smaller. However, small droplets are more susceptible to particle drift. Which scenario is right for you? Probably a combination of both.

#1 New York Times-Bestselling Author:No-nonsense, back-to-basics principles to achieve excellence every day from “the uber-guru of business” (The Economist).
