"I cannot endure to waste anything as precious as autumn sunshine by staying in the house. So I spend almost all the daylight hours in the open air." Nathanial Hawthorne
I know a woman (a very talented and witty woman) who feels that Autumn is the start of the year. What a lovely thought! It is a time for putting away and for beginning. Putting away the harvest and beginning the school year. Putting away the beach towels and beginning a new scarf ( Tansy and I are teaching ourselves to knit. Guess who will be getting 50 foot scarves for Christmas...Everybody!)
Autumn is one of my favorite seasons (my other favorites are spring, summer and winter). Nothing beats the crisp cool of a sunny afternoon. Although the wasps are out enjoying the sun before they...um...where do the wasps go for winter? Do they hibernate? Do they just die? (Well, guess what we'll be learning tomorrow!) Anyway, even though the wasps are out the mosquitoes aren't and that is a beautiful thing! I love the sparrow but honestly, hasn't she gotten sick of eating the same droll meal day after day? On my list of things I wish were no more mosquitoes are up there with war, world hunger and knock-knock jokes.
Anyway, with the snow soon arriving, sunny days such as these are cherished. It is a sin to miss them.

The Greyhound is believed to be the forefather of all sighthounds that have been described in literature and depicted in art as the epitome of a functional hunter and a live courser throughout the centuries. It is probably true to say that the other sighthound breeds cannot be fully appreciated and understood without having at least a working knowledge of the Greyhound. It is more than likely that the Greyhounds originated in the Middle East, but the exact origins have been lost in the mist of time.
All sighthound breeds have one thing in common: They are hunting dogs that will use their tremendous speed and turning ability to chase down and kill the game, working either alone, in pairs or in groups. Some also have very good scenting power and others also use their ears extensively, but all of them will normally survey their territory by sight.
When following the game at high speed in open fields, sighthounds will use double suspension gallop as opposed to common diagonal gallop performed by horses and heavier dogs. The double suspension gallop is a particularly swift gait; it is also called a light gallop. Double suspension gallop can also be performed by other breeds such as Doberman Pinscher and Basenji at particularly high speed. Greyhounds have even been observed to perform a triple suspension gallop or fast gallop, a gait pattern otherwise only seen in cheetahs.
Greyhounds are one of the least aggressive dog breeds. They are gentle, sensitive and affectionate family companions and are probably one of the most loyal of the dog breeds. They are kind-hearted and have a marvelous affinity with humans, including children. They are also impeccably clean. Although both strains are clearly Greyhounds, AKC Greyhounds tend to be narrower and taller, with deeper chests, longer necks and legs, more arched backs, lower tails, and smaller, more tightly folded ears. They are more successful in conformation shows.
NGA Greyhounds are longer and wider-bodied, with thicker tails and bunchier muscles. Their fur may be less sleek, they have a greater tendency to have missing thigh hair, and the self-colors (no spots) predominate. NGA Greyhounds seem to be keener for the chase and are undeniably faster than the AKC Greyhounds. Because of this they are more likely to run to the point of hurting themselves.
Most NGA Greyhounds become available only after they have finished their racing careers. Some may be yearlings that were injured or did not make the grade, but most are between 2 and 4 years of age. With the life expectancy of 10 to 14 years, this gives you plenty of time. Having been raised in a kennel, home life will be totally foreign to these dogs. They may or may not be trustworthy with other pets.

text: Think Before You Ask Posted on May 15, 2015 by aabsofsteel 1 In this era of "reality" television and social media sharing (and over sharing), the line between public and private is often unclear and unfixed. What one person considers a casual topic, another might find personal or sensitive. I've noticed that birth announcements are changing. All I really want to know is the new name and if mother and child are healthy. I also expect to learn the weight and size of the baby—though I'm not particularly interested in those statistics. However, sometimes birth announcements get even more detailed, and I'm told things such as whether it was a vaginal or C-section delivery. That is information I'm surprised to see "the masses" become privy to (and it's a gory detail I don't want to know), but it's something some of my female friends are excited about and shout from their Facebook rooftops. Who am I to say it's too much information just because it makes me uncomfortable? Clearly, people have different definitions of what qualifies as personal versus general information. Given the spectrum of how much people are willing to share, it's difficult to know where to draw the line with our questions. We have so much access online, even superficial relationships produce a vast depth of information. It can be hard to discern how close we really are—and what we should (or should not) ask in person. Some questions sound like judgments or assumptions. Married women are routinely asked when they plan to have children. Some women, like me, aren't trying or hoping to be parents. Asking us "when" is like asking a vegetarian if he wants beef or chicken. You're presenting only two options (now or later), and leaving very little room to accommodate the response, "I'm childless by choice." Some inquiries, though innocently asked, are experienced like attacks. Sometimes small talk can press against a big wound. I have a number of friends who have struggled with infertility. Asking a woman when she's going to have children presumes it's fully (or at all) within her control. It happens in other areas of life. Single men and women are asked when they're going to settle down and get married. Sometimes parents are asked this question on behalf of their children. They're asked "when" as if it's just a matter of visiting the spouse aisle at the supermarket or ordering a significant other online. It's good to think before you ask, but don't worry about it too much. At some point, everyone gets it wrong. We will all unwittingly overstep. Even the most innocently intended questions have the potential to hurt or offend. However, if we're always too afraid to ask, we'll loose opportunities for confiding in, supporting, comforting, and learning from each other. Perhaps the best we can do is to be thoughtful, forgiving, and gracious. Don't be offended when someone declines to answer your question. Trust that he or she has a reason. If you feel pressured to share information you'd prefer to keep private, remember that you have the right to defend your boundaries. Ask, but don't assume your innocent or simple question will have a clean or easy answer. It might make a mess. Things might get emotional. Your inquiry might stir up sadness or fear or anger. So ask your questions with a modicum of caution, and if the answers do get messy, stick around and help clean up. Don't ask if you're not ready to listen. Don't hit and run.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Do you reuse acupuncture needles?
No, every acupuncture needle comes in sterile packaging and is disposed of into a biohazard after use. They are single use only.
How big are the acupuncture needles? What does an acupuncture needle look like?
As you can see acupuncture needles are barely the width of a cat whisker. They are not hallowed like a hypodermic needle (the middle one), and there for do not pack as much punch. They are filiform needles (solid, extremely fine, stainless steel needles, primarily used in acupuncture).
I'm afraid of needles, does acupuncture hurt?
Depending on the location most people do not feel anything. Depending on the location you may feel a "bug bite" type sensation. It is encouraged that if you feel something that is burning or a constant pain that you relay that information to your practitioner. It could mean that they hit a hair follicle or a small capillary beneath the skin that couldn't be seen. The needle can be adjusted so that you are comfortable.
What is the most common side effects of acupuncture?
The most common side effects of acupuncture are possible bruising or bleeding. We are inserting a needle into the skin. Although, we are not needling directly into a vein or artery there are capillaries (small blood vessels) that run deep to the skin that we cannot see. When one is hit, it can cause a small drop of blood or a bruise to appear. Calandra Center for Health and Wellness recommends Arnica gel, as long as you are not allergic to it, if you know that you have a tendency to bruise easily.
How long do I sit with needles in?
Each subsequent session is around 60 minutes in length. The first part of the session will be designated to an intake, any remaining time will be designated to the treatment itself. In order to achieve a therapeutic effect, the needles will be left in for a minimum of 15 minutes.
Why does acupuncturist take your pulse?
Acupuncturists use pulse diagnosis as another tool to give us insight into your pattern, and how you are presenting for the day. We look at the depth, rate, and quality of the pulse on both hands. Each side and finger position represents a different organ system. Sometimes when we ask you a question like "Are you having vivid dreams", it is because we are feeling something in your pulse that might indicate that type of symptom. This does not in any way make us mind readers. Please be completely honest with your practitioner about the symptoms that you are experiencing. This tool is used as a way to determine how best to treat you.
Why do acupuncturists look at your tongue?
An acupuncturist will ask to see your tongue because like with pulse diagnosis it gives us more information pertaining to your pattern.
Why do you put that lamp over me?
In some situations, an acupuncturist may decide to put a heat lamp over your abdomen or feet.
This is a specialized lamp that helps to increase blood flow to a specific area and penetrates deeper then a regular lamp. It may be used to "warm the abdomen" or placed above an injured area for this reason. Truth be told sometimes we use it to just keep your toes warm.
What is Moxibustion (moxa)?
An herb called mugwort dried and used to create "moxa". It comes in many forms and can be used in many ways. Please reference https://calandraacupuncture.com/2017/03/moxibustion-therapy-and-how-it-works/. It can be burned on or very near to the surface of the skin. Moxa is used to warm and invigorate the flow of Qi and blood in the body and dispel cold.
Cupping/ Gua sha
Both cupping and gua sha are considered to be fascial releases that remove "stasis" from within the muscle. Cupping is able to reach a deeper layer of muscle, while gua sha is more superficial. Gua sha is also frequently used to "release the exterior" for beginning symptoms of the common cold.
Please visit this page for more information.
What is Estim?
Estim is a device that is hooked up to the needles in order to cause constant stimulation. It works much like a Tens unit does. However, because it is hooked up to the needle it is able to reach a slightly deeper muscle layer. It feels like a buzzy massage and does not hurt. It can be used in a treatment for pain, menstrual disorders, or fertility treatments. It can help to increase blood flow to a specific area and break up stasis.

New Program for Homeless Young Adults
Collaboration of two non-profits will renovate foreclosed homes on South Side to create housing for homeless.
Milagro Jones sits in a small, hidden lounge on the fourth floor of one of the buildings at MATC's downtown campus, where he's in his first semester. Jones, 25, has been homeless for much of his life as his mother, who suffers from bipolar disorder and paranoid schizophrenia, moved from city to city, state to state, staying in different shelters.
Jones has struggled with hunger, anxiety and paranoia, and has been subjected to unstable environments, crime and incarceration. "The fact that I haven't had a stable living situation has always been a factor in … everything," he said.
A fledgling program called the Campus Housing Initiative is attempting to address the need for housing among homeless and transitional young adults in Milwaukee. The program, a collaboration between Journey House and Wraparound Milwaukee's Project O-YEAH, will provide affordable housing, work and education opportunities to youths ages 16 to 25, with the eventual goal of self-sufficiency. O-YEAH is a federally funded initiative designed to help young people successfully transition to adulthood.
The hope, said Bria, is to get rid of nuisance properties, beautify the neighborhood and address the glaring need for high-quality, affordable housing for homeless, motivated young people, especially those aging out of the foster system.
Journey House, a community organization in Clarke Square with a self-help approach, was awarded $200,000 through a competitive Milwaukee County process, said Brian McBride, a project coordinator with the county who oversees Project O-YEAH. The organizations have been working together for more than a year on the program. A pilot house at 741 S. 23rd St. is expected to begin housing a limited number of youth in March.
The housing initiative will identify foreclosed and other nuisance properties in the Clarke Square neighborhood. The properties will be renovated to be as aesthetically inspiring and operationally efficient as possible.
"We're really providing a quality apartment … for them so that they can go on to meet whatever their goals are," Bria said. "We're very meticulous [about] how we care for our facilities."
McBride said Project O-YEAH would identify participants based on need and tangible progress toward work or educational goals. "It's not a set process, right now," he said. "Who is in need of housing? Who's meeting certain goals? Who's employed? Who has current income coming in?"
For those young people — many of whom end up "couch surfing" from residence to residence — an important first step is to alleviate the burden of housing insecurity. "If you don't have your housing and food taken care of, how can you do anything else? It just makes it more challenging," Bria said.
But Bria and McBride both stressed that the 18-month program isn't a "handout." There will be a rental cost of about $500 per month, though a "tiered system" would allow individuals to live rent-free for a couple months until they are able to incrementally increase their contribution.
"We just don't want to offer somebody who is not doing anything productive an opportunity to live free — you've got to be able to work toward your goals," McBride said.
In addition, the program will provide participating youth with access to a GED program, job training and financial coaching.
Jones, who is in the process of looking for work to support his 5-month-old daughter, called the initiative a "step in the right direction" and said someone in his position could definitely take advantage of this program.
"I'm an intelligent young man, I want to do something good in this world, I want to be able to accomplish things so I can help others and, basically, all a person like me needs is help," Jones said.
However, he also acknowledges that he's fortunate to be able to pursue an education while still homeless. Jones said many young people in his position are dealing with depression and often "lose the spirit and the will to even go on." He questioned the criteria of the program, noting that just because homeless youth aren't working or attending school doesn't mean they don't have the ability or ambition to become contributing members of society.
Jones added that there are a lot of programs that claim to help the homeless but many of them simply "make you feel like things are even more hopeless."
That's exactly what this initiative hopes to address, said Bria. "The goal is to help our young people achieve their dreams."

It caught me off guards, but, suddenly, riders stopped, stripped to nothing, or their skivvies, and we were off again.
There are nude bikes rides all over the world, riders in Brazil, France, UK, Belgium, who delight in being skin to saddle. Fortunately for those around me, I opted for the more disclosed sense of nudity.
But I can assure everyone, underneath all my clothes, I was as nude as they.
I suppose I will have to search out one of the nude bike rides for a feature .. Just wondering about the filters I will have to use.

The name Pachmarhi is believed to be derived from the Hindi words Panch ("five") and Marhi ("caves").
According to a legend, these caves were built by five Pandava brothers of Mahabharatha era during their fourteen years of exile. The caves are situated on a hilltop and provide an excellent vantage point. Pachmarhi region came under the kingdom of the Gond king Bhawut Singh, although it was a populated village or town at that time.
Captain James Forsyth of the British Army along with Subhedar Major Nathoo Ramji Powar who was later made the Kotwal (Incharge of the armoury (Koth)of Pachmarhi, spotted the plateau in the Pachmarhi region in 1857, while leading his troops on the way to Jhansi. It quickly developed into hill station and sanatorium for British troops in the Central Provinces of India.
Best time to Visit
This beautiful hill station is between October and June.

The National Insurance Crime Bureau reports that theft costs construction companies up to $1 billion annually.
Combining industry leading technology with our Texas based, fully licensed monitoring personnel to reduce loss and mitigate risk at your construction site.
Heavy equipment, tools, parked vehicles, and raw materials are vulnerable to theft at construction sites. Without any one of these items, time is lost and deadlines must be pushed back. Our construction site security camera solutions are monitored by Texas-based, licensed personnel to actively deter and intervene when your site is in danger of theft and vandalism.
Our thermal fleet gives us a sharp advantage when monitoring your construction site
High definition video matters. SentriForce clients have come to rely upon the information and evidence that our surveillance footage provides.
— Curtis Kelly, Commercial General Contractor Superintendent
I would highly recommend SentriForce over any of their competitors. I previously used the nation's largest, construction-site-security-camera provider, and was dissatisfied for multiple reasons. SentriForce does not outsource to third-party vendors like a lot of their competitors and is competitively priced. I like the fact that they are U.S. owned, live monitor in the U.S., and the professionalism of the operators and management is unmatched.

THE GREEN INFERNO : Eli Roth has kept plenty busy since the HOSTEL films with short films, television work and the occasional screen turn, but THE GREEN INFERNO represents his first directorial feature since 2007. Made in 2013, distributor woes kept it on the shelf right up until Roth's next film (KNOCK KNOCK) was ready for release. Experienced horror fans already know that THE GREEN INFERNO is Roth's answer to the Italian cannibal epics of the 70s and 80s. For those less familiar with this field?
Read: CRIMSON PEAK (2015) : Movie Review
As with the HOSTEL films, Roth gives us a group of young Americans who walk blindly into a culture they don't understand; not with contempt in this case, but with mere naivete–and once again, the machinations of various behind-the-scenes movers and shakers set them up for ghastly fates. The writer/director (a student of world history and current events alike) may admire the genuine desire of such characters to effect change in the world, but he's even more bitter and cynical when it comes to what it actually takes to make such change a reality (as Justine's father puts it, "We can't just invade another country because they're doing something that offends us. Anymore.") and once again challenges us to prove him wrong, making THE GREEN INFERNO another compatible entry in his lineup.

This exciting story will engage you on page one. The time period is the 1600s and the story opens on a desperate note. Caitlin's father, a Viking, and her mother, a Woad, have traveled from their home in the isles of Scotland—land of ancients and druids—to a new land seeking a better life.Their journey to this far away land has been an arduous one. Many have died, and death is anxiously waiting to wrap its arms around their young daughter as well. In order to save her, a desperate father and mother leave their small daughter on the shores of North America–a dangerous and primitive land—with only a wolf to protect her. This beginning, though heart wrenching, is necessary and sets your thoughts afire wondering what comes next. This coming of age tale, the story of a Chosen Child whose destiny was written eons ago, moves quickly and takes many unexpected detours and follows unmapped territory. This special girl must survive, though her chances are slim as she is alone in her quest to find her place and reason for being. Fascination abounds when we meet her mentor—an old wizard, a shaman— who resides in a cave. Who is this warlock? His spirit has been with her since her birth. Is he psychic? Telepathic? Or is he simply a figment of her imagination? How does he fit into the overall picture? Why is he of such importance for our healer, Caitlin, later on?The favorite character in the Highland Healer Series is the wolf. He is an integral character in this prequel as well. His sole purpose is to protect this child, a task he was assigned the moment she was born. Like Caitlin's grandmother, Ci-Cero, this wolf is the first in his line and his offspring are present in each novel in the series. Follow them all—the wolf, the wizard, and the woad—and you'll engage on a most interesting and exciting adventure that will stay with you for an eon or more!
An interesting preview to a series I am not familiar with.
However, whilst I liked the Native American Lore and the mix with some Viking theology, the actual 'magic' element seemed rather thin.
Yes, there was a wizard – one must suppose that as he turned out to be white skinned with blue eyes, tat he was in fact a Druid. Which didn't fit with all the other theologies.
I did wonder if it was aimed at a YA audience, but it seems not, which surprised me, as the level of knowledge seemed at this level.
In the end, I found it a little disappointing. Too many pantheons and theologies mixed up together.

Let's Figure Out How Exactly 'Rising Star' Works
If you're getting bored with the spinning chairs on The Voice and blah-as-ever format of American Idol, then ABC's new singing competition Rising Star may be exactly what you're looking for. It has the potential to finally infuse some life back into the tired television genre, so forget the performers on the show — Rising Star might just be the next big thing itself. The series will premiere on Sunday, June 22 and I know what you're thinking: How exactly is this show any different from the dozens of other talent competitions out there, and perhaps more importantly, how does Rising Star even work? First, let's talk about the judges — technically, that's you. Viewers will tune into the show, which is live right from the audition stage, to vote on whether performers should move on in the competition via the Rising Star app.
As the performers sing, viewers at home can use the app to send them forward in the competition. If Tinder is your go-to dating app, you should already be familiar with the way Rising Star works. If you like one of the performers, swiping right on the app indicates that you want them to move on. How's that for modern technology?
If the performer gets enough votes, they will move on in the competition — but not before something kind of awesome happens. The coolest (and also weirdest) part of Rising Star is that the performers are singing behind a three story high wall, which will only "rise" when the performer is selected by America. And it's not just a "wall," it's a video screen that shows both the performer and viewers at home. A random collection of viewers will pop up on the mini-squares of the video screen, which means that you might spot yourself on Rising Star one day— even if you have no singing ability whatsoever.
Though Rising Star doesn't have judges in the traditional sense, the show boasts some of the biggest names in the music industry. Like fellow singing competition The Voice, Rising Star will feature professionals from various areas of the music industry as "experts," including Kesha, Ludacris, and Brad Paisley . Instead of actually judging the competition, the group will provide contestants with feedback and advice on how to make their next performance even better. Josh Groban has also joined the show as host of the competition. Here's hoping that all four of these industry professionals team up for a quartet by the end of the summer.
Get ready to start swiping.

Dear {{firstname}},
As you know gratuities for staff are not a tradition in the Club. However, following on from 2017, the Flag Officers propose that the same process will run again in 2018. This will enable Members to show their appreciation for the Club staff given the Christmas festive period is a time when such gestures are appropriate.
The Staff Fund allows Members to show our gratitude to all our employed staff, whether on the water, in the Bar, in the Restaurant or in the Office.
From 18 December 2018 to 2 January 2019, if you so wish, you will be able to contribute to this fund. The following methods are available: Cash or cheque left at the office or cheque posted to the office, in each case in a sealed envelope addressed to the Club Accounts – Jo Salmon; cheques should be payable to the Club and marked "Christmas Staff Fund" on the back. You may use a debit or credit card - please do so only through Steve Shaw or Jo Salmon (Accounts) – please contact by phone or email to make arrangements.
After 2 January 2019, we will calculate the total amount received and divide it among our currently employed staff (except for Steve Shaw, who has requested he should not participate). The fund will be distributed to staff with the first pay packet after 2 January. We intend to provide anonymity for all contributions.
The Flag Officers believe this fund is a good way of recognizing, at the festive season, the significant contribution that our employed staff make to the life of the Club.

Ximen Mining Corp (CVE:XIM) told shareholders Monday that it plans to pour the first metal bar at its Kenville gold project by the end of 2019.
The Vancouver-based company updated investors on its plans to start building a decline at the historic Kenville mine in order to initiate a 10,000-ton bulk sampling program on the project.
Ximen is looking to drive a 466-metre decline to access a series of vein intercepts in holes drilled between 1995 and 2010.
READ: Ximen Mining launches new 20,000 metre drill program at historic British Columbia gold mine
The end of the decline will allow the company to drive a raise to connect with the historic workings of the gold mine, as well as ventilation and a secondary egress, or exit, once the mine is developed.
The company is also planning an underground drilling program of around 4,500 metres in the decline to follow up on historic drill intercepts on the Eagle veins, it said in a statement.
At the 500 metre mark of the decline, the company is anticipating to cross mineralized shoots from the historic mine, where a number of drill intersections indicate potential for a bulk sampling program.
The 4,500 metres of underground drilling should outline material for a bulk sampling program of 10,000 tons, Ximen said. The exploration company is planning to develop an area over a strike length of 300 by 150 metres for trial mining of a bulk sample.
If successful, Ximen may pour its first gold and silver alloy bar, known as a Dore bar, by the end of 2019, according to Christopher Anderson, Ximen's CEO.
Shares of Ximen were 4.1% lower on Monday morning to sit at C$0.71 in Toronto.

With his follow up to "Dead Reckoning," Kieran Kane has found a thick, pulsing sound to match songs of life lived the hard way. The opener "Table Top Dancer," is a working class story of a stripper who dances for "wages and tips": she doesn't "really like it, but it helps feed the kids." The finale, "J'Aime Faire L'Amour," on the other hand, encompasses as much trip-hop as country. As a steady percussive loop plays, Tammy Rogers' strings ride in and out, and Kane chants a refrain in French.
But the strongest songs aren't necessarily the ones taking the most musical chances. "In a Town this Size" - a graceful, mandolin touched ballad of small town gossip - and the straight country style of Johnny Bond's "I Wonder Where You Are Tonight" are two of the most satisfying tracks. Kane enlists the help of the Dead Reckoning collective on most tracks, but he plays many instruments himself, crafting a spacious, evocative sound that, even when the lyrics feel forced (the unconvincing stabs at evil on "Kill the Demon" and "To Whom It May Concern"), help make these 13 songs serious, involving music.

Robert Francis "Beto" says he was 'Born' for 2020
I am running to serve you as the next president. The challenges we face are the greatest in living memory. No one person can meet them on their own. Only this country can do that, and only if we build a movement that includes all of us. Say you're in: https://t.co/EKLdkVET2u pic.twitter.com/lainXyvG2n
— Beto O'Rourke (@BetoORourke) March 14, 2019
After months of public anticipation, former Congressman Beto O'Rourke has officially announced the launch of his 2020 presidential campaign saying he was 'born' to run. O'Rourke made the announcement Thursday morning. O'Rourke appeared to be sitting in his living room with his wife Amy. O'Rourke hopes to run a campaign without big money, "I want you to be part of this. I want this to be your campaign – a campaign by all of us for all of us that answers not to the PACs, corporations, and special interests but to the people."
In 2018, O'Rourke lost the U.S. Senate race to Republican Senator Ted Cruz (TX). O'Rourke's senate campaign fundraised $36.8 million in individual donations. He's now doing it again. O'Rourke says he will rule out any PAC money, corporate donations, pollsters, and negative ads.
Leading up to his decision, O'Rourke took a road trip of self discovery blogging about his encounters with everyday Americans. Reports stirred of O'Rourke's announcement Wednesday after he texted an El Paso news station, KTSM confirming his plans to enter the 2020 pool.
In his texts, O'Rourke said, "I'm really proud of what El Paso did and what El Paso represents,""It's a big part of why I'm running. This city is the best example of this country at its best."
The announcement was also featured as the cover story on Vanity Fair Magazine. In his interview, O'Rourke said he is running as a 'proud capitalist', while praising Democratic socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY).
Reaction on Twitter

Lipofilling or fat transfer is the process of transferring unwanted body fat from one site to another, inside the body.
The most common transfers are to add volume to the breasts or buttocks, but lipofilling can also be used as an 'anti-ageing procedure' to revitalise areas of the body that suffer fat loss as we age, such as the face or hands.
Many patients feel that lipofilling is a more 'natural' and preferable alternative to using implants and fillers and at Esthetik we achieve excellent, long-lasting results through this process.
About the procedure
Small volume lipofilling is sometimes performed under local anaesthetic, but it is more commonly performed under general anaesthetic, usually as a day-case.
During the operation, fat is removed from the donor site (frequently the abdomen or the inner/outer thighs) by using a syringe inserted into small skin incisions, which usually don't require any stitches afterwards. The harvested fat is filtered and washed in saline, to remove any blood or excess oil and then injected into the new area of the body (the recipient site).
Lipofilling often requires more than one procedure to achieve the final, desired result, as a proportion of the fat (up to 50%) will be reabsorbed into the patient's body and injecting too much into one site at a time can lead to possible complications. However, the remainder of the fat will remain as permanent filler in its new site, creating a natural silhouette and feeling soft and pliable to touch.
After the operation
There may be some slight bruising to the skin of the donor site, as well as some swelling around the recipient site for up to six weeks. Wearing a supportive compression garment may help and strenuous activity should be avoided for at least two weeks. Any abnormal contours (lumps or bumps) should become smoother as the fat is absorbed and massage may help this process.
At Esthetik we are always careful to inject only the correct amount of fat at any one time and the vast majority of our patients are delighted with their results from this procedure. The lasting effects are usually permanent, unlike implants which normally need replacing later in life.
As with all our treatments, we are always happy to discuss a patient's specific concerns with them individually.
Lipofilling of the breasts and buttocks
At Esthetik we offer both lipofilling and implants to the breasts and buttocks. We will discuss the options and advise you on the best option for you, dependent on your circumstances and the final results you wish to achieve.
Please be aware that breast augmentation through fat transfer is still a relatively new procedure and various studies are still ongoing to understand any possible links between lipofilling and breast cancer development. Again your surgeon will talk through this with you and you must mention at future mammograms that you have undergone the procedure.
Lipofilling of the face and hands
The face and hands are usually the first things people see and both tend to undergo fat loss and become looser as we age. Many people are cautious about using synthetic fillers, in which case using a naturally occurring substance from your own body may be the perfect alternative. Administered correctly, the results of fat grafting can last up to ten times longer (up to 10 years) than synthetic products.

"With the new name SOLIDS Dortmund, we're recognising the consistent growth and ever-increasing internationalisation that has taken place over the course of the last eight editions of Schüttgut," emphasises Daniel Eisele, Group Event Director for organiser Easyfairs. On 7 & 8 November 2018, the ninth trade show for granules, powders and bulk solids technologies – and the first to run officially under the title SOLIDS – will take place at the Messe Dortmund. Over the years since its premiere in 2006, the share of international exhibitors has risen to nearly 20 percent, and amongst visitors to about 12 percent.
One of the shows in Europe's largest show series
The new name, SOLIDS Dortmund, also underscores the show's affiliation with Europe's largest series of trade shows for granules, powders and bulk solids technologies. Together with its sister events SOLIDS Antwerp, SOLIDS Rotterdam, SOLIDS Zurich, SOLIDS Krakow and SOLIDS Russia, Dortmund has long been a pillar of the Solids European Series (SES).
The new name will be accompanied by a new logo for SOLIDS Dortmund. It consists of three nested hexagons, representing the three types of bulk solids, i.e. stone, granules and powders. Its six corners stand for the six SES shows. The broad approval with which the new name and logo have been received is summarised by Professor Rainer Barnekow from the Life Science Technologies Department of the Hochschule Ostwestfalen-Lippe: "I'm delighted with the new name SOLIDS. Solids includes not only coarse bulk goods but also powders and finer-grained materials, and this is exactly what you'll find at the trade show. Since the show has become more international, an English name is the ideal choice."
A concept encompassing exhibitions, forums and conventions
Along with SOLIDS, the fifth edition of RECYCLING-TECHNIK Dortmund will also open its doors in Dortmund's exhibition halls this November. The two shows will be accompanied by the 4th German Fire and Explosion Protection Congress and the 8th URBAN MINING® Congress, which will both be held in parallel.

Owning Domain Names
When it comes to domain names, you may find that owning a number of them is the best way to go. Online sales and marketing is one of the most competitive markets currently, and you may find that there are millions of websites just like yours that are trying to make a buck by taking advantage of the online shopping craze. If you are looking into getting started doing business online, you will find that the domain name of your website is one of the most important things to get right.
Why is the domain name so important? Imagine that the internet is like New York. In the large city, there is foot and vehicle traffic throughout the city, but not everyone goes to all the parts of the city. Those living in the Bronx may rarely stray to Manhattan, and even fewer of them go out to SoHo or the Tribeca area. Imagine that your website is like a tiny store in the back alleys of the Bronx, and there is little chance that people other than the residents of your neighborhood will ever see the store. Seeing as you are not rich enough to place your store on Madison Avenue, it is highly unlikely that you will ever get as many customers as you may want.
However, imagine that you could place signposts all around the city informing people that there is a store in the Bronx that sells exactly what they want at such a great price that they would be stupid to pass up the opportunity. These signs will direct people to visit your store, and you will find that your business will increase.
Owning domain names is exactly like setting up signposts around the internet that will direct people to your site. Your primary domain name is like the sign over your shop that lets people know where you are, but you will find that a single sign is rarely enough to get more than a fraction of the customers that you want for your store. If you can use SEO techniques to advertise and publish your domain names all over the internet, you will find that more people are able to find out about your tiny backwater website and click on it in order to visit it. This is the secret to increased web traffic, but this is only one of the purposes of owning domain names.
When you own one name, there is a high risk that your competitors will choose the other domain names that sound or look just like yours. When people try to type "yourwebsite.com" but end up typing "yurwebsite.com" accidentally, you may find that your competitor will have purchased that misspelled domain name and is stealing all of your clients. If you want to be successful online, you will find that owning a number of domain names is the way to go. The more names you own that are similar to your primary domain, the more likely it will be that people will type in one of the names and be directed to your site.
