UFC Fight Night Prelims: Sara McMann Overpowers Jessica Eye, Takes Unanimous Verdict
.@Sara_McMann opens it up in the second round! Lands a nice right and gets the takedown! #UFCVegas https://t.co/whMPDiFrX0— #UFCVegas (@ufc) May 30, 2016
Former title challenger Sara McMann completely neutralized Jessica Eye with wrestling and positional control, taking a unanimous verdict over her former training partner in a 135-pound encounter at UFC Fight Night "Almeida vs. Garbrandt" at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas on Sunday night. The Olympic silver medalist swept all three judges' scorecards by identical 30-27 tallies.
Perhaps wary of her opponent's wrestling, Eye struggled to pull the trigger throughout the contest, often waiting for countering opportunities that never arrived. Meanwhile, McMann (9-3, 3-3 UFC) got stronger as the bout progressed. After grinding her opponent against the fence in a tepid opening stanza, McMann landed takedowns in both the second and third rounds. From there, Eye (11-5, 1-4 UFC) was helpless as her foe won virtually every transition and positional battle while attacking with periodic ground-and-pound.
McMann halted a two-fight skid, while Eye has lost three straight in the Octagon.

Trujillo Holds Off Short-Notice Foe Rinaldi
Abel Trujillo relied on power punching and timely takedowns to capture a unanimous decision over short-notice opponent Jordan Rinaldi in a lightweight tussle. All three cageside judges scored the contest 29-28 in favor of Trujillo, who has won five of his last six promotional appearances. Rinaldi (12-5, 0-1 UFC), meanwhile, saw a five-fight winning streak come to an end.
It was a more measured approach from Trujillo (15-6, 6-2 UFC) than usual, as he picked his spots to attack with powerful hooks to the head while landing takedowns in each frame. "Killa" found his rhythm in the final stanza, when he appeared to rock Rinaldi with several hard left hooks before punctuating his triumph with one final takedown. Rinaldi's best moment occurred when he was able to take Trujillo's back and flatten his foe out late in round two, but he did little else to sway the judges in his Octagon debut.
Collier Spinning Back Kick Crumples Pereira
Jake Collier survived a rough start to earn a second-round technical knockout victory over Alberto Emiliano Pereira at middleweight. A spinning back kick to the body clinched the triumph for the 27-year-old Pit MMA representative at the 1:06 mark of period, making it the fourth-such finish in promotion history.
"Uda" (9-1, 0-1 UFC) had Collier reeling early when he appeared to break his opponent's nose with a knee in the first frame. Collier (10-3, 2-2 UFC) did his best to shake off the damage and eventually returned to the offensive. He turned the tide for good in round two with a big knee in the clinch and a multi-punch combination near the fence. The decisive kick arrived moments later.
Koch Chokes Out Campbell After Two-Year Hiatus
Erik Koch made a successful return to the Octagon, submitting Shane Campbell with a rear-naked choke 3:02 into the first frame of their preliminary lightweight tilt. It was the Koch's first appearance since a loss to Daron Cruickshank in May 2014. Campbell, meanwhile, has lost three of his four promotional outings.
Koch (15-4, 4-3 UFC) displayed no visible signs of ring rust, landing smooth combinations at range in round one before ending the period on his opponent's back. That was a precursor of what was to come. After running into a Campbell (12-5, 1-3 UFC) elbow to begin the second, "New Breed" landed a takedown before transitioning to his foe's back once again. With plenty of time to work, Koch secured both hooks, slid his right forearm under Campbell's neck and sunk in a deep choke to force the tapout.
Caraway Takes Gritty Split Verdict Over Sterling
Bryan Caraway didn't care about Aljamain Sterling's considerable hype. "Kid Lightning" authored a gritty comeback performance to take a split-decision triumph over the previously unbeaten Sterling in a competitive bantamweight showdown. Judges Dave Hagen and Tony Weeks scored the fight 29-28 for Caraway (20-7, 6-2 UFC), while Adalaide Byrd saw it 29-28 for Sterling (12-1, 4-1 UFC).
In the early going it appeared as though Sterling was going to dominate. The Serra-Longo Fight Team product took his opponent's back, locked in a body triangle and spent half of the first round in that position in what was arguably a 10-8 frame. Caraway rallied over the final 10 minutes, taking down a fading Sterling in both the second and third stanzas in a grinding effort. Meanwhile, "The Funk Master" offered little in the way of offense as his opponent gradually took control.
"I'm not the same person I used to be," Caraway said. "This is a warning to the bantamweight division; I'm coming for that belt. I'm the underdog in every single fight and I keep winning."
Milstead Batters, Bloodies de La Rocha in UFC Debut
Heavy punches and stout takedown defense carried Adam Milstead to a successful UFC debut, as he earned a second-round technical knockout stoppage over Chris de la Rocha in a preliminary heavyweight clash.
A series of five to six unanswered blows -- including one nasty elbow -- from Milstead (8-1, 1-0 UFC) forced referee Chris Tognoni to intervene on de la Rocha's behalf at the 4:01 mark of the period even though the bloody-faced Washington native remained on his feet.
Milstead was clearly the superior athlete from the start, and he found success landing counter right hands in the opening stanza. De la Rocha (4-2, 0-2 UFC) attempted to slow the assault by taking Milstead to the canvas, but the Stipe Miocic sparring partner thwarted most of his opponent's shots throughout the bout. Milstead has finished all eight of his professional triumphs within two rounds.

A great welcome for our first trip to Florence! We opted for a superior room which did not disappoint…superb...rather sumptuous and traditional in its decor with excellent bathroom facilities…beautifully clean with bed linen changed daily. Breakfast served in the beautiful Sala Parlamento is outstanding. The range of food available is impressive and service is supreme. The lounge bar is stunning and a perfect place to enjoy an aperitif. Disappointingly, the restaurant appeared rather faded, uninviting….and empty. We therefore asked the staff to recommend a small, romantic restaurant nearby and our subsequent experience at Ristoranto Fellini was not the best. However these two issues aside, the hotel was the perfect choice…leaving us with memories to cherish.

You purchased your 190E because its performance and German engineering appealed to your senses; so why would you be okay with second rate when it comes to great quality auto parts? The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest compared to all the other cars, trucks, and SUVs currently being driven today.

Car aficionados appreciate the a reliable name built into each Mercedes-Benz, and know that only the highest quality repair 190E parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing.
Keeping the interiors of our cars and trucks cool and comfortable has been possible since HVAC was pioneered around 70 years ago. The lifeblood of the air conditioning system is a refrigerant called R134a. The refrigerant emits cold air after a simple thermal reaction, and it tends to accumulate moisture as it cycles through the HVAC system in your Mercedes-Benz 190E. Between your A/C condenser and the expansion valve is the receiver drier, and it separates the water from the refrigerant so that it can go on to cool your passenger compartment. Whenever you disconnect any of the A/C hoses on your car or truck, you must change your Mercedes-Benz 190E A/C receiver drier or accumulator.
Given all the hassles associated with fixing broken parts on your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make purchasing it easy. Don't let a broken A/C Receiver Drier & Accumulator bring about the demise of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by buying anything but the best repair parts. Procuring new Mercedes-Benz parts from www.carpartsdiscount.com means you are paying the lowest prices for the most superior original and aftermarket replacement 190E parts on the internet.

Over 300 people have died yet many Nigerians are unperturbed about the meningitis outbreak. This piece is for them…
Nigeria is currently dealing with an outbreak of one of the deadly communicable diseases, meningitis. Already, about 2524 people have been affected across the states, 131 samples confirmed in the laboratory with majority as meningitides type C, and 328 deaths recorded so far according to statistics from the federal health ministry.
While it is assumed that a lot of people are aware of the disease, quite a few understands what it entails.
"I was told my baby boy had meningitis when he was about 4 months old and we spent almost a month in the hospital receiving treatments, I thought I was going to lose him then but he survived," said Mrs Adetunji, a teacher. "I wasn't told categorically that it can be spread then, but I knew it was deadly."
"I'm not sure, but it sound like an infection or a disease," said Lolade, a trader.
Meningitis is an infection affecting the covering of the brain and spinal cord collectively known as the meninges, it can be caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi and the likes with their various causative organisms.
Bacterial meningitis is very serious and can be deadly. Death can occur in as little as a few hours. Most people recover from meningitis. However, permanent disabilities (such as brain damage, hearing loss, and learning disabilities) can result from the infection.
While the condition is classified as a medical emergency, because of it's proximity to the brain and spinal cord, a lot of people defer from presentation based on various factors which includes the pattern of presentation.
Meningitis present in a way that can be initially confused with malaria, an endemic disease in Nigeria and other African countries with fever and headache initially, confusion, altered consciousness, neck stiffness, inability to tolerate noise or light and other symptoms like poor feeding, drowsiness and irritability.
Belief in witchcraft is currently making the fight against meningitis difficult. Families were refusing to bring suspected cases to the hospital attributing the illness to witchcraft. This is an important factor that can increase the statistics thereby making the effort of both government and NGOs to be futile.
While measures are being put in place to contain the disease, constituting emergency response team, supplying antibiotics and other materials, adequate health education and enlightenment concerning the disease and the route of transmission is paramount for keeping suspected affected persons at home will only make the disease worse; it will cause transmission to other members of the family.
But how can it be prevented?
Residents should reduce the number of persons that take care of confirmed meningitis patients, avoid sleeping in overcrowded rooms and ensure personal and environmental hygiene as the infection can spread through air droplets and contact with throat and nasal secretions – hence the following measures should be embraced:proper disposal of respiratory and throat secretions, strict observance of hand hygiene; reduce hand shaking, kissing, sharing utensils or medical intervention such as mouth resuscitation.
No doubt immunization can provide long term protection which was why Nigerian senators resolved to make meningitis vaccine to be freely available at all public health facilities across the country. While the thoughts are good, there is a lil problem about its implementation. Presently, meningitis vaccine is very expensive; even if there is money for it, the vaccine is also scarce. Now this is a major public health challenge of epic proportion – more reason why everyone should be concerned about knowing how to prevent the disease in the first place.

Notes to Self
In LiveStage Pro if you are targetting specific points in a child movie then:
- To go to a specific time you need to use standard LSP timecode to indicate the point: nn:nn.nnn
- If you want to check if the movie is up to a certain point in a child movie (using MovieTime for example) then you need to specific this time using LSP's time code in 600ths. This is because when you request a value using MovieTime it will be returned as 600ths, where 1 second = 600.
- If you get the movie time (via QuickTime) and multiply that out by 600s (unless I'm worse at maths than I realised) it doesn't work. Just add a sprite that returns movie time of the child movie each time it is clicked via a DeBugString
- If you want to use sprites to move to different parts in a child movie track, then it looks like you have to make sure it has stopped playing before you use the GoToTime command in QScript. If the track is already playing then the GoToTime command appears to only go to the current movie time, and not the specified time.
As far as I could find none of the above is documented, so I've been through a lot of trial and error. Some is obvious in retrospect, much wasn't.

Who Writes My Blog?
My early entry about who writes your blog has raised a couple of very useful responses from Mark and Lilia. Lilia observes that:
Links as relations have at least two parties (more if it's true hypertext as far as I know :), but links are only indications, not relations themselves. Yes, I don't have control on links to my weblog. Yes, those links can influence who I am – by creating opportunities for a contact or creating an impression that there is a relation. Yes, my identity is constructed in interactions. But all these doesn't mean that there is less me in it…
Links are not only indications. They are, to be abstract for a while, vectors of force that effect incorporeal transformations. There, got the Deleuze beast out of me. What does that mean? A link can change, qualitatively, what a node means. It can do this quite independently of the content of the node, to the extent (and only to the extent) that it can make this change without having to change the content of the node itself. In simpler terms, a link (just like a film edit) can make something mean something else. This is work I've done in the past in hypertext theory, as has Susana Pajares Tosca. I can link to someone else's content on the web, insert that into a new syntagmatic chain, and as a consequence change its role. This is, very fundamentally, the way major hypertext fictions (Afternoon, Victory Garden) work – you return to where you've been but it is never a return – good hypertext is always Heraclitean (sp?).
Therefore links effect qualitative change. The more links in to this blog, for example, from other blogs, my technorati rank changes. Now rank may appear here as a quantitative measure, but that's a category confusion. Rank indicates authority, and what rank is attempting to indicate is the authority of a blog. Authority is a quality, not a quantity (when we say you have more authority than I we don't mean that I've got a kilo of it and you have two!). So in this plain good old everyday sense, links that I cannot control, affect this blog qualitatively. This happens at all levels: links to a post, links to the blog, and so on.
Ok, all of that was written in a blur of passion and is way too dense for a blog entry. So let me restart and go to what is, for me, the heart of the matter. The suggestions that links are not relations in themselves. On this point, if I'm interpreting it as intended, I am in complete disagreement. (This was the surprising elegance of Small Pieces Loosely Joined.) Blogs are determined by their links. If I write online and don't link out, and no one links in, I have what? A journal? A diary? A web page? Sure, but not a blog.
The blogosphere, all the tools we have to map this, recognise that it is only about the connections between parts. The connecting parts are of more significance than the parts themselves. This is of course the basis of things like Google bombs -the connection effects change over the meaning of the content, and it can do this quite separately of the content. This is what Deleuze calls an incorporeal transformation, it changes what it means but the object itself remains unchanged. In writing we call it quotation (see for example Derrida's Limited Inc). By 'only about connections' I mean that the nodes are useful, even important, but it is the connecting of parts that is the blogosphere, period. Just like an ecosystem. Yes, that grasshopper is interesting and worthy of study, but as an ecology small part of a loosely joined system. And even if I study just the grasshopper I'm doing a serious act of reductive science if I think I can 'understand' the grasshopper by ignoring where it lives, the systems it participates in and which define it.
Links are these relations. They are relations that are external to the things that they relate. This is why links can have attributes that are separate from what they point to: my link that I call 'agreement' is your link that you call 'example' or 'disagreement'. Yes these might come from different comments, posts, pages, etc, but it is easy (as a thought experiment) to recognise that when links have such metadata then links clearly express a semantic force that changes that which they link to. Just because (at the moment) most of our links don't do this doesn't mean they don't have this force.
As a final but not final thing to think about. One of the ideas I was getting to, or at, is that while blogs are written by 'individuals' this is probably a naive view of a blog (and the blogging individual). My blog as a blog gains its authority from the links made into it. It is a simple (and problematic) heuristic, but surprisingly accurate – witness Google and technorati rank. It is, as my students sore ears can vouch, networked writing and not writing on the network. Where my blog begins, and ends, is a nontrivial question for networked practice and identity.

Wondering out aloud. What does it mean to have a credit sequence in a video blog?
Me: If video were quotable, and only part of the video was quoted, then the credit sequence becomes invisible.
You: Yes, but blog posts have a heading, and if you quoted only part of a blog post then the same applies. And if you linked to the video you were quoting, it would work, just like linking to a blog post, you get all the post.
Me: But it's a credit sequence containing the url of the website, not the url of that blog entry.
You: So?
Me: So if I were to quote just part of your work, then where has your credit sequence gone? What is it going to do?
You: Not much, I guess, but I don't get the big deal.
Me: Fair enough. I guess I wondering about the thing that credits suggest. The ownership, but also, they're like book covers. But we aren't making 'books'.
You: Duh. Of course they're not books.
Me: Yeah, ok, poor example. By books I mean films are like books. Opening and closing credits are like book covers.
You: Yeah, OK, I can see that. That's pretty nifty actually.
Me: Yeah, I guess it is. So, books. They're solid little things. Not really networked at all (just the illusion of networks, the networks we had when we didn't really think, or couldn't really think, about networks). Our networks are now porous.
You:Porous? Networks? What the…?
Me: Think about this blog. It is porous. The network pours through it. It pours through the network.
You: Nah, you've lost me there.
Me: Ok, this blog has links out. Links from the blogroll, links inside posts, links to technorati, blogstreet, and so on. But that's only half of it. There are all the links in. That's what makes a blog a blog. So it is porous.
You: Ok, I can sorta see that. Sorta.
Me: Well, the beauty (and authority) of a blog is, if you like, how porous it is. Blog posts, for example, are very porous. Each post can link out, and be linked in. And they're of a size where they can be linked in to and someone coming from elsewhere can 'get' what the post is about.
You: It's not like they have to read the whole book. Or a book.
Me: Exactly! So, as I was saying, if our videoblogs all have credits, then people seem to be thinking of their video as 'whole'. As finished, complete. And I reckon this influences how they think about their video. And it doesn't make sense. Video needs to be porous too.
You: What is porous video?
Me: I think we'll leave that for another day. But once that happens, credits will be irrelevant.
BlogTalk Prototype 1
For BlogTalk Downunder I'm preparing three vog prototypes that just make visible some of the things you can do in video
Video Migration
When I first starting vogging I struggled with a lot of things that are now, in retrospect, non issues. One of these issues was content, what should I include and why? The idea of presenting myself, as a talking head, was anathema to me, though I'll leave discussion of that for another entry. A more mundane problem was whether or not I should have a blog that was only video, or a blog that mixed video and text.
I eventually decided on the latter, and so had one blog that only contained video, and one blog that only contained discussion of these videos, as well as the more usual blog stuff. Not any more. From now on the video is going to be included here, and the original vog will be archived and laid to rest. Why?
Well, a lot of people find one, but not the other, and so my writing and documenting of material is not found via the vog site, or people think I only blog about video and don't make video. More importantly though the effort to separate them (and a lot of my vogs contain a lot of textual material, I include the text inside the video in some way) is just a false problem. Andreas I think has made that very clear in numerous postings to videoblogging, and in his blog. Blogs are social spaces that combine media and video is another mix that we now put into that soup. The question or problem of should it be only video is silly. It's like saying a blog is only text (there goes the flickr feed). Obvious now, wasn't in 2000. The video still has to do or be more than just an embedded clip, for exactly the same reasons that a blog entry is more than an hermetic paragraph of text (like you'd find in print). It has numerous tools that hook out, that allow links in, and for these parts to form greater wholes. A whole language of phase transitions, strange attractors and small world networks. We need these tools for video.
But now my vogs will be here. In amongst the rest, as it always ought to have been.
An Agenda, Again
First off, via Eli Chapman we find Fred Viola's beautiful little QuickTime piece which, though he made it in AfterEffects is a cinch to do in QuickTime Pro. Haunting, considered, understated yet says a lot. From here I jump cut to Will Luers who uses the definition of haibun to think about a vlogging aesthetic. Yes, this is what our work should do. Things that quicken the heart (as Chris Marker memorably mentioned once). Otherwise, why?
Tara makes a brief post about what makes a good blog. The idea that it should express you but not be about you, while I'm not sure is actually the case, is a strong idea worthy of consideration.

Discussion in 'Lawn Mowing' started by contourbs, Dec 8, 2004.
where would it be?
The BEST place to get it is directly from Jungle Jim's. I use their products and love them, and I usually buy at Expo and save some $$ plus no shipping. I picked one up this year for $ 140.00, their website lists it at $152.00, and www.power41.com has them for $ 144.50, plus shipping. It's an invaluable tool , especially owning Standers.
Check Russo they mite have it.
I got mine from a dealer for $120. Because it sat in his show room too long. I love mine.
Impact know why you need a jungle jack if you own a Wright stander.
Itsgottobegreen is correct, you can't own a stander and not have a jungle jack. At first I had a floor jack but it didn't get low enough so I had to muscle it up. Let me tell you not easy, with the motor so far forward.

The aircraft was being flown on an instructional flight which included a glide approach to Runway 09 Left. Whilst on finals for a 'full stop' glide approach, the student pilot commented that the aircraft was high. Despite application of sideslip, the aircraft crossed the threshold higher and faster than normal. The aircraft touched down more that half way down the 518 m grass runway and both occupants started maximum braking. The grass was wet and the instructor felt that the wheels had locked up. A collision with a boundary hedge was likely, so the instructor turned the aircraft to the right, but was unable to stop the aircraft before it collided with the hedge, causing damage to the left wing, but no injuries to the occupants.

Welcome to our test site section. I will be posting data from our test site and inform you of how our family of 4 is living with renewable energy generated by the 1Kw wind turbine and 2Kw solar system. Our aim is to zero our grid power use and have hotwater at all times.
Posts: 7
Well hasn't it been a windy couple of days. Must say it's been good for flying flags and making wind power,lol. I must collate all the data in regards to how much renewable energy has been generated, how much power has been consumed and sent up the grid, and how many days it's been without using grid power to heat up our hotwater. I must admit it's been quiet good watching the turbine spin,it's kind of like watching fish in an aqarium,it's relaxing,lol.
Anyway for those of you who can't wait for the full data it's like this, today we generated over 13Kw in wind power with the AWS 1Kw turbine. The wind was so strong at times that some old trees we have around the farm nearly gave way. The turbine on the other hand just kept going and at no time did i think it would spin off my property, it did what it was meant to do, slow down a bit and then pick up. I can honestly say that quality does shine and prove itself on days like today. Our solar,2Kw, made a total of 9Kw. Unfortunately we sent a total of nearly 10Kw up the grid,wouldn't it be good if i can store it but the missus didn't want the battery back up offered free by AWS,grrrrrrr.
Our beut product,ImmerSun, sent 5Kw to the electric hotwater unit and by the afternoon it told me that water was hot!!!! I just had a nice hot shower and the whole family has had one too. All four having hot showers every day. Now get this, it's been 21 days since we have disabled the use of grid power to heat our water. Yes, 21 days of free hot water, and i haven't even had to change my electric hotwater unit. I do highly reccomend the installation of the immeSun if you have solar and or wind.
The turbine is still producing some of the power we are needing to run the househlod tonight, well after the solar has been asleep since 7Pm. Also i am about to jump into my warm(electric blanketed)bed. Oh, yes grid power used today,24hrs, was only 2Kw.
Good night and thank you AWS Wind turbine ,solar ,immerSun and Australian Wind and Solar for allowing me to put the money saved in power to our Christmas holiday fund,lol

Hi everyone, i am back. It's been great having the strong wind over the last week. The other week a mini tornado ripped through Ararat, our neighbour. I had the strongest wind here that night in years. Corrigated iron which was loose blew over to the next paddock and geuss how the AWS trubine fared?? Well to be honest i stood in the control room, rugged up and watched with a bright torch how it behaved and after reading the post about turbines by the Tech team i could not strongly agree that oils aint oils.
The turbine was generating over 1500 watts of power,(not bad for a 1Kw), and at times the tail would slow the turbine down to a slower speed,(not too slow). Now i'm no pro when it comes to the nuts and bolts of turbines but as i have said in my earlier post(now that wind was nothing compared to this time) there was no fear of the turbine spinning of my property.
It's been 6 weeks since the turbine was connected to my house and it has produced over 124Kw of free power, considering it is only a 1Kw that is great, should have taken the 3Kw that was offered by AWS, imagine how much power that would have made,lol.
The immerSun has saved me over 31 days of electricity to heat my hot water. Yes i haven't used the grid power to heat my hot water for over 31 days.The great thing is i didn't have to change my hotwater unit and yes we have had hot showers.
Anyway that's enough from me, if you have any questions please feel free to post them and i will try to answer then or get the tech team to.
Good night

Hi Everyone!!
It's been a while since i posted something so i thought i would poke my head in the forum and let you know how it's been going. First of all it's been a total of 57 days of free hotwater from the sun. Our Immersun has diverted a total of 500KW to my electric hotwater unit since it's been installed. As i have said earlier, i haven't had to change my electric hotwater unit. We all enjoy our hot showers without having to worry about paying to heat the water up again.
In regards to the 1Kw turbine, it's produced a total of 169KW since it has been installed and conected. I got a call from Adam after he installed a 3Kw system down the road and he informed me of how much power the turbine was producing. I now really wish i took the 3Kw he had offered as the test system.
The solar has been producing about5-10Kw a day,but the cloudy days has made the turbine produce good power when compared to the solar. Powercor is cutting down some trees next door to protect the lines due to the trees dying. Can't wait as the trees block the wind when it is blowing a SSE.
Anyway must go and hope to touch base soon.Goodnight all.

Thanks for the update, it will be great to see the extra generation from the SSE..500Kw from the immersun to date that is absolutly well beyong our wildest expectation.

Hi Folks,
Well it's been a productive month in regards to renewable energy, i have tallied up all the figures and was very suprised with the results. Before i give them to you i want to add that we never ran out of hotwater and believe me having a tenage daughter showering really tested out our non reliance on grid supplied power to our hotwater unit, those of you with tenagers in the house know what i am going on about,lol.
Over all the solar diverter(ImmerSun) ,we have, sent a total of 148Kw to our hot water unit for the month of November. Wow i say, so far 600Kw of solar power sent to the hot water unit to date thats a saving of over $98. It's been a total of 79 days of not using the grid to heat our hot water.
Now i recieved my power bill the other day and my retailer decided to estimate read my off peak power usage, very angry i was,grrrr, i rang my retailer up to find out why an estimate of the off peak was done. Their reply,get this
Due to the no increase in the usage of the off peak we thought the meter was not reading properly, so we calculated your usage going by previous bills.
I was furious, i explained what was going on and explained the system i was using,to their embarassment they explained that they will modify the bill.
So on with the results. Wind total of 60 Kw with a 1Kw AWS turbine- Solar 130Kw with a AWS 2Kw system.
You do the maths, who says wind is not worth it??
By for now and look forward to any questions or visit to our site.

Hi everyone Merry Christmas and i hope 2014 is going to be the best year for you. It's been a crazy time in December and with everything having to be completed by the 24th one cant help wonder we run around like a chook without a head. Things can wait til the new year but am i the only one who seems to think that December is the busiest time of the year??? With meeting everyone in the family, exchanging gifts, eating lots of food(pudding my favorite) i must say i am glad it's over.
Now that's my opinion out of the way it's now time for the December figures of the AWS test site.
It's been 100 days since we last switched off the grid power to my electric hotwater unit and we have all enjoyed extended shower times and never ran out of hot water. The excess power generated by my hybrid system(wind&solar) has heated up the water in time for our showers. No we don't have to shower at a paticular time of day because my immurSun unit heated mostly during the day and many times the display said Water Hot. I haven't had to use grid power at all
With the extended daylight hours and the solar panels positioned in the optimum angle i have produced a whoping 233 Kw of solar in December. Unfortunately, warmer weather means calmer days and so the wind produced only 55 Kw of power. Stop Press!!!!! This production occured 70% of the time at night,yes it gets windy at night here,lol. This means that my night power consumption was provided most of the time in the dark, when the solar panels where asleep and the turbine was spinning.
This week has been very windy and today my solar generated 8kw whilst the wind turbine produced 10kw and is still going, so far 25 kw of wind has been produced this month. My hotwater is hot too because we tend to use less hot water in summer hence less cold water going into the tank.
I look forward to a bill which will be mostly made up of service and supply charge. Who says solar is better than wind?? The solar companies say that whilst my advice is, if you have solar a wind turbine to top it off will definetly reduce your power bill and get the boys to install the solar/wind diverter(immerSun) if you have electric hotwater.
Anyways got to go, see you at the end of the month

Hi Everyone,
Greetings from the AWS Test site. Sorry i haevn't updated the data for last month but it's been a bit hectic here. To start off it's been an awsome month of sunny days and not too hot weather, i am really looking forward to winter, love the warm fire and early finishes to the day. Also we get a ton of wind here from the southerlys that blow straight from the ocean, only these winds are more stable and go on for days. The down side is that the solar goes into partial hybernation,lol.
So to date we have had free hotwater from the excess power generated by the wind turbine and solar panels and to tell you the truth i have stopped counting after 150 days of free hotwater. so if you want to work it out read my last post and count from there to today. The solar diverter used is much better than the others you may find out there. It is more user friendly, you are able to set boost times and for how long. You can set a manual boost and for how long too. The smart meter function of turning on boost keeps going until your water is hot, you can check the temp at the tap and if you are happy with the temp(for a shower) you can turn it off with the immersun. Also whilst playing around with the function buttons i noticed i gives you a month by month report, whilst also showing you the daily tally.
We have had stabble weather over the last month and the wind turbine gennerated a total of 80 Kw's. The solar only got to 220kw's. Now i noticed in hot tempreatures the panels aren't working to their full potential. There has been hardly windy days due to the stable high pressure systems we get during that time of the year. I do know that there has been nights where the turbine is spinning producing power for the house to run at night.
I have to say that with the figures given you have to consider a few variables that exsist. One being the turbine does not capture the northerly winds due to the fact that there is a row of tall pine trees across the road, these block the wind. Great for my home in summer but not great if you want to run a turbine. I was advised that where i wanted to place the turbine that the trees would block the wind, but hey the trees are just at their last legs so they won't be there forever,lol. Also in summer we get stable air pressures meaning still days and lovely weather.
Anyways that's it from me and if you want to ask me something i will try to answer it best i can, and i don't check my posts everyday so i will get back to you when i do.
I am looking forward to the next month when winter weather starts to set in, send me rain please!!!!!!!

5 inches (about 13 cm) of length in the penis seems good enough for sexual intercourse because only the first third of womenâs vagina is sensitive to touch. Sexual technique and duration of sexual intercourse are more important for satisfying the woman than the size of the penis. There are no exercises or food that will help you to increase your penisâs size.

The remainder of the decade was dominated by the two "Star Trek" incarnations, particularly "Deep Space Nine", on which he served as director of photography for 127 episodes and directed six. At the close of the decade, West transitioned from sci-fi to crime dramas, first for the NBC series "Profiler", and then for CBS's significantly more visible "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation". West's next big gig came on the witchcraft fantasy series "Charmed", which West filmed from '02 to '06, right through the final episodes of the series' eight-season run, while adding another six episodes of directing credits to his résumé.

Fiber optic cable installation is a very special task, because fiber optical cables can be easily damaged if they are improperly installed. It is imperative that certain procedures be followed in the handling of these fiber cables to avoid damage and/or limiting their usefulness. Only a trained professional can achieve rapid and accurate.
Finished fiber optic cables can be categorized as outdoor cables, indoor fiber cables, or indoor/outdoor cables (shown as the following figure). However, most of the technology of optical fiber cable installation has been borrowed from those used in copper cable. And at present most of the fiber cable contractors from copper network background.
Most independent fiber cable installation contractors install indoor cables most of the time. Indoor fiber cables are mostly used as the backbone for campus networks, enterprise LAN systems and etc. And there is the submarine cable category. They are laid from ships built for that purpose. They are only used by the big global network backbone builders. But actually there are many small divisions within each group. When installing optical cable, what you don't know could really hurt you or damage your cable. there are many different types of finished fiber cables installations knowledge we need to know, let's examine them one by one.
1. Submarine cables. Laying of submarine cables are the purpose of shipbuilding. They were buried at the bottom of the ocean trench depth of less than 200 meters. Areas in the deeper level, submarine cables laid directly at the bottom of the sea.
2. Direct-buried fiber cables. Direct-buried cables are also called armored cables. They have aluminum foil wrapped around for mechanical protection from rodent bite and outside forces. They are laid in a deep trench dug with a cable plow and then covered with dirt.
3. Outdoor cable does not include the buried cable, cable duct is necessary. Cable ducts are plastic tubes which provides a path and protection for outdoor cables. They are buried in the trenches, and then covered with dust. Cable ducts have various size and flexibility, they can be from 1 inch to 6-10 inches. Some of them are flexible and others are very strict.
4. Cable ducts are buried first without any fiber cables inside. They can be routed directly between two endpoints or through a series of access points at manholes.
5. Outdoor cable through the cable duct and traction on the rope. Pull on the rope attached to the strength of the member, and then pull out the cable of the destination. You should not put the fiber directly because it will break easily and result in a broken cable is useless to you.
6. And then there are aerial cable. One type of aerial cable with a messenger line to provide mechanical support and they can hanged on poles without any lashing. This type of aerial cable is called figure 8 or self-supporting cable. Other types of aerial cables have to be lashed with a special lashing wire running around both the cable and the separate messenger wire.
7. Indoor cables can be installed within walls, through cable risers, or elsewhere in buildings. Note: only special under carpet fiber cable should be used for laying on the floor where people walk.
8. A special type of indoor cable is called plenum cable. They have special formulated out jacket material for fire rating. Only plenum cables can be used in air return spaces for the VAC system.
Warm prompt: Fiberstore is doing 30% discount of the price, including indoor cables and outdoor cables, and our website address can also provide to you. www.fs.com. Welcome to have a visit.

I sat there at the table in the rec center with a pencil borrowed from my child and the back of my grocery list, jotting down two poems in about 10 minutes while dealing with people inquiring about what we were doing there. I was just the chaperone as this was the kids gig, but I answered questions and handed out free things just the same.
The nausea is still plaguing me whenever it feels like it and the exhaustion and fatigue are definitely assaulting me. Vivid dreams in full colour are sticking with me through the days and laughing until I am crying or crying until I am laughing are also becoming a new normal.
But, today, the words flowed from me in a poetic prose that I had missed. The pain and sadness that lives deep within my soul, was eager to hit the slip of paper and is currently tucked inside my wallet. As I read the words aloud to the child who loves to listen to rap and lyrics full of suffering and pain I heard the words "that's deep and really good. If I didn't know you, it would almost be scary, almost."
You see, I have a dark side, a side riddled with past pains, abuse, rape, physical and emotional neglect and loss. My dark side often finds its way out when its pen on paper, never rehearsed or even edited, just the need to hold a pen to paper and write the words that flow, whatever they may be.
I often wonder to myself, how do people who don't write deal with their dark side? Surely, I am not the only one who has this. Certainly, I am not the only one with a tumultuous past.
I believe in God. I believe I am redeemed. I believe that Christ has already bore my sins and that I am saved. I believe that my faith is more than sufficient and yet I am human and the darkness still lives within the broken cracks of my once shattered soul. You see, you can glue a mirror back together, no matter how many pieces, but the reflection will never be the same. While Christ is the glue that strengthens me, and has rescued me from the past, it doesn't mean the past never happened.
I love deeply and wholly with all that I am. I don't trust easily. I break often. I hide the pain behind a smile. I am content in just 'being' and in knowing that the present doesn't last forever and that what comes tomorrow will be history the following day. I've learned that I have to be my own best friend so that I can live the life God would have me lead.
He sat there absorbed in his video game and me in my book and as the hours ticked by I could see he was holding his breath more often, afraid to breathe but trying to ignore the silence of the phone. No news is good news, right?
Finally, we laid down and slept for a few hours -smack in the afternoon and into the early evening, and his breathing relaxed, his stress slipped away as I watched him before dozing off myself.
When the phone rang it's awful ringtone he shot out of bed like a cat, straight into the air and answered it quickly.
He held his breath when it was his dad and not his mom who said she would call when her surgery was over.
When his dad passed the phone to his mom the audible sigh of relief that escaped his body caused tears to roll down my cheeks, quickly swiped away by the blanket.
She was okay. He was okay. I was okay. We could breathe knowing his mama survived the surgery.
The holding your breath and doing your best to focus on the good and handing it to God thing seemed to be working through the day, it was a nice day, but lingering in the back of our minds was a part of our souls that just needed the know what God's plan for us that day actually was.
Breathing out the negative and breathing in the relief felt fresh, new, amazing.
Suddenly we both wanted to eat and found ourselves thirsty, realizing we hadn't done either all day as we did our best to stir our minds from the what-ifs.
It was only 2 days before that I was the strong one, standing on the stairs into the night speaking to his mama about her faith and her journey through the church, through life, and her telling me that I was reminding her to just trust God.
Why is it so much easier to say than do? Preach but not be preached to?
I hold my hands in reverence to the One who is in control of it all, whose plans I will never know until I am walking through them. To Him I give praise, because praise is deserved even in the darkest of days. Gratitude in the middle of chaos. He triumphs as I stumble. Picks me up when I fall. When the air is knocked from my soul, He breathes life back into me. CPR for the soul. The Bible my personal First Aid Kit!
I go through the motions of the day like everyone else does while worrying about the everyday things like money and bills overdue and how I am going to find a way to pay them and then I place it all into God's hands and do my best to continue, trusting that He has provisions for me and He will meet all my needs.
I am reminded of the Israelites wandering for forty years, given manna everyday and told never to take more than they need, or save any for later. Trust that the Lord will provide the next meal too.
A family that vlogs on YouTube who I began to follow over a year ago, because of a cleaning motivational video posted a life update today. The mom, Christy, was very upset as she sat in the car talking about her faith and her family and how their oldest son, 22 years old, passed away this week and that they have had to humble themselves before the Lord during this extremely difficult time, by having to start up a GoFundMe page just so they can pay for the funeral for their child that will be held this weekend.
And tears fall from my own eyes as I see how upset she is, how she knows to trust God but her heart is broken either way, how I have watched her shop thrift stores to care for her large family, how she has purposed to be more modest, shared her raw testimony and allows us in to her hectic homeschool life while working full time and still struggling to make ends meet.
My own anxieties and problems with money suddenly become trivial. Who cares about the credit card debt from years ago, at least I am not burying my child. My family is healthy. That could all change tonight or tomorrow or when the phone rings, but right now everyone is good and that is a blessing. That is todays manna. The sustenance that will sustain me, even if creditors are calling and threatening to ruin me, I cannot be ruined because Christ has me and he has my family and if/when something does happen, He will still stand firm and still give me exactly what I need as I need it.
Will Christy's son be buried and have a lovely service? Yes! And, because of people who realize the need of this family who have put away a little bit here and there, Christy and her husband Jimmy SR will not have to worry about debt when they are mourning and looking for ways to be grateful and intentional.
We put so much value on "things" and "stuff" that when there is a tragedy like a young man, a child, passing away, our own lives are put into perspective and we strive to be more intentional and make the moments count. I don't think anyone has ever lost someone and said they spent too much time with the person or have too many memories, rather people lose and then they feel guilt that they should have could have would have done more if only they knew.
In life, we rarely get to know any of these things ahead of time, but one thing is for certain, we are all on the same paths, regardless of time, and that is physical death. Our souls will rise and God will embrace. So, why don't we live everyday like it is our last without having to be told we are dying?
My One Word for the year was "Intentional" and unfortunately it took someone passing away at a young age for my heart to shift to a place that reminds me to be more intentional with my children and family, and the ones I love.
God is absolutely amazing in allowing the negatives of our own lives, and the lives of others, to remind us of His Word and to live life to the fullest.
I ask that you pray for the Overlin family this coming week as they figure out what normal is as children of God and as parents to a son gone too soon. Placing their faith in Christ and knowing that their oldest boy is now sitting with the One Creator.
Live intentionally dear friends!
I've been staring at the screen and the cursor blinking now trying to write and I am aware of the sound of the fish tank needing water, the rush of the filters flowing hard and lulling me to a different time and place.
Aware that the darkness outside my window seems blacker than usual -a sign that the moon and stars must be covered in clouds that can't be seen until the sun rises.
The exhaustion that has taken over my body weighing me down, like if I were to fall into waters deep I would sink straight to the bottom like a solid rock -and there never seems to be enough air. The air is tight inside of me, not wanting to escape my lungs and refusing to fill them properly too.
Panic possesses me and heightens the sensations of… everything. My emotions running high, my heart easily wounded and hurt. My bruises coloring me in shades of purples and pinks and blacks and green.
The swelling in my back pressing against my tailbone and causing numbness to painfully run down my legs.
A God who has redeemed me and saved me from all of these things if I simply choose to have faith, and I do. I am aware of that, and when the pain gets too high I pull into Him even more than I do in the everyday mundane and for that I am grateful. The hurt in my body and the broken in my soul are what makes me cry out to the One who has already saved.
And, when it is really bad I can feel His mouth against my ear and His words caress my ear "by My stripes you are healed." The truth, spoken directly into me by the One who IS Truth.
Author and Farmers Wife, Ann Voskamp, has written a whole book on giving thanks. The hard eucharisteo, and for me her words flowing off the pages was absolutely life changing. I think they were for a lot of people given that One Thousand Gifts was a New York Times Number 1 bestseller for some 60+ weeks.
As someone who reviews books I have an idea of how many are published every single day so earning that spot is insane, earning it and keeping it for over a year is unheard of, or at least it was.
My journals filled each year and put into the box in the closet filled with the blessings of the year, the good and the bad. The unspoken-broken that needed to be acknowledged.
Now, I see that this fellow Canadian who is used to waking long before the sun does, who collects eggs in the snowy minus 40 has written another book, The Broken Way, and while I have yet to read it I also completely understand how broken life can be, how in order to experience wholeness I must first experience a shattering of the soul so that God can place me back together.
I am excited for this book. Even the trailer speaks to my soul-holes and brightens the shadowed spots with the One that is the Light. And, we could all use a little more God, stronger faith, more Light.
As the days shorten my faith grows long.
New York Times best-selling author of One Thousand Gifts Ann Voskamp sits at the edge of her life and all of her own unspoken brokenness and asks: What if you really want to live abundantly before it's too late? What do you do if you really want to know abundant wholeness? This is the one begging question that's behind every single aspect of our lives — and one that The Broken Way – also a New York Times bestseller – rises up to explore in the most unexpected ways.
This one's for the lovers and the sufferers. For those whose hopes and dreams and love grew so large it broke their willing hearts. This one's for the busted ones who are ready to bust free, the ones ready to break molds, break chains, break measuring sticks, and break all this bad brokenness with an unlikely good brokenness. You could be one of the Beloved who is broken — and still lets yourself be loved.
You could be one of them, one who believes freedom can be found not only beyond the fear and pain, but actually within it.
You could discover and trust this broken way — the way to not be afraid of broken things.
I take a deep breath and point my bottom up in the air wondering how attractive THAT has to be and sorta laugh to myself how awkward yoga can look and how good it can feel. Even though I am not feeling well I decided to hit the mat and sweat it out and lift up my spiritual energy, centering it, refocusing it on the one who created me in the very beginning and saw that I was good.
It has been easy to be down over the last few months. I have felt a ton of pressure in the little things and a lot of slippery serpent heads slithering their ways into my thoughts and creating anxiety and fear, and a lack of trust. In the last session of Hello Mornings, which I have loved for years and even lead a group with Jen from Faith Mustard Seed in for several sessions. This intimate group of people I thought I could trust and ask for prayer in were the ones I went to when I found out my cousin had another baby born asleep. Before anyone had even commented or offered prayers in the private group I was being tweeted about it and my faith in a female lead church community collapsed -hard.
At the same time I had just finished a course in ministry and had received grades high enough to earn me a scholarship. I haven't logged back into the site since to see what I would like to take, I haven't even requested a copy of my transcript or diploma for the first course.
Women are supposed to be building each other up, for ever we have helped one another -raise babies, pray, stay strong in faith, cook meals for other families and even offered to help cook or clean for our female friends and acquaintances when they needed it the most.
We are supposed to be lifting each other up and instead this crazy world of social media, on every platform, has become a game of trying to be better or look better or take better photos or eat better foods or pray better. A game of my way is better than your way and the most beautiful of people from Facebook to Twitter to Youtube have worked hard to cut those life giving umbilical cords to the One who always loves and always pulls us up by showing us their ugly sides.
It is hard to not be pulled down when in the back ground they are spreading rumors, exposing your private moments and your broken-hard is exposed for the entire world to see.
I am having to remind myself daily as I check in with my soul that my faith in Christ has not changed, but my faith in humanity is definitely in question. It is so much easier to slam the laptop closed and keep it all inside, locked away inside the confines of my mind, but like the Queen song says "I want to break free" and in order to be healthy, I need to.
I am definitely on the defensive, my stress levels high and every one who I was trusting as my "church" community whether in real life or online has fallen into this line of wonderment where my PTSD is triggered and I have to ask myself "can I trust you?"
As I raise my hands up and breath in deeply and lift my heart I know that I am being held by God. And that is all that really matters.

Buttock Lift- What is it?
A buttock lift has two functions. It removes excessive and sagging skin from your buttocks and thighs and improves their appearance. Also, it tightens the skin over your buttocks raising them as a consequence. The major factors responsible for this sagging skin are genetics, sudden weight loss, and aging.
Buttock lift is however quite different from a Brazilian butt lift. In the latter surgical procedure, the volume of your butt is enhanced via fat transfer or implants. On the other hand, in a butt lift procedure, only excessive skin and fat is removed and the techniques which are deployed include liposuction and surgical excision.
Furthermore, the patient can also have both the surgical procedures performed jointly. He/she can first have a butt lift which can then be followed with a Brazilian butt lift. However, this combination would definitely be more complex and will have to be carried out in two distinct sessions.
Butt Lift as a part of Body Lift
Butt lift can either be a solo procedure performed on its own or it can be a part of the overall body lift in which it is generally combined with breast augmentation and abdominoplasty.
A butt lift is a form of cosmetic surgery yet it can be customized in the context of each individual patient's particular needs, requirements, and desires. Generally a butt lift is embarked upon if the patient is suffering from sagging, droopy skin. On the other hand, patients who prefer the more traditional one of the two opt for Brazilian butt lifts. Bluntly put, no matter what procedure you may embark upon, you would end up with a sexy, well-toned rear end.
Who is an ideal candidate for a Butt Lift?
- The patient ought to opt for a Butt lift only if exercise and diet have failed to address his/her issues.
- Or if sudden weight fluctuations have stripped his/her skin of elasticity and made it saggy.
- Moreover, individuals suffering from cellulite, whose thighs become flabby and dimpled may also benefit from this surgical procedure. Likewise, those patients may also consider getting a butt lift done whose buttock skin has been stripped off its elasticity owing to sudden weight loss or onset of aging.
- If your flabby or crinkled rear end makes you feel uncomfortable or decreases your self-confidence or poses mobility problems then you are a good candidate for butt lift.
- Ideal candidates for this surgical procedure ought to be otherwise healthy individuals both physically and psychologically. Moreover, they should have a healthy lifestyle and realistic expectations from the surgery.
- Surgeons also recommend that if you have undergone a significant weight loss, then you ought to aim for the sustenance of your healthy weight for an approximate time period of three months to two years before deciding to embark upon any cosmetic procedure; particularly butt lifts because the fat on your butt would alter with your body weight.
What are the advantages of a Butt Lift?
- The patient would end up with a smoother and well-toned butt.
- Butt lifts tend to produce long lasting results.
- This surgical procedure would also take care of any problems caused by excessive skin, such as the possibility of development of fungus and other infections.
What are the disadvantages of a Butt Lift?
- It could take several months to recover completely from this surgical procedure.
- The results can be altered by any future fluctuations in weight.
-The volume of your buttocks might be reduced as a consequence of this surgical procedure.
How much does a Butt Lift cost?
The costs for this surgical procedure vary from patient to patient as well as from doctor to doctor. On average though the statistics given by the American Association of Plastic Surgeons suggest that the procedure may cost approximately $4820. This price estimate doesn't include the cost of a surgical facility and other associated surgical costs. Since it is a cosmetic procedure, so it will generally not be covered by your insurance plan.
What should the patient do before a Butt Lift?
- The patient should primarily look for a qualified and experienced surgeon.
- He/she should then hold a consultation with this surgeon in which various issues ought to be discussed such as the patient's lifestyle, his/her motivations, desires, expectations, surgical goals, desired outcomes, medical history, medical conditions etc.
- The patient should also inform the surgeon about any medical treatments that he/she is on such as vitamins, supplements or any other drugs. The doctor can then advise you about the medications which you can continue taking and the medicines which need to be stopped and the time period for which they have to be stopped.
- Also, the patient's general health would be evaluated by the surgeon.
- He/ she will take note of the patient's physiological conditions, any possible risk factors and pre-existing medical conditions. He/ she may also take photos as well as detailed measurements to be kept in medical record.
- The surgeon also has to acquaint the patient with all the surgical options available and possible outcomes.
- The surgeon would present forth different types of butt lift that the patient as an individual can be subjected to. Various techniques that can be deployed should be discussed as well.
- The patient should frankly provide the surgeon with his/her feedback since the results ought to satiate the patient's aesthetic appetite and desires.
How is a buttock lift procedure performed?
- As a general rule, the approximate time period for this surgery lasts from three to six hours but at times it may even take longer depending upon the extent of surgery.
- The patient is given anesthesia during the surgery so that the procedure goes smooth and is comfortable for the patient. There are two anesthesia options. Either the patient can be subjected to local anesthesia conjugated with sedation but the latter option i.e. general anesthesia is a more popular one.
- The same surgical plan would be followed which had been previously discussed and agreed upon by the patient. However, the surgeon has the authority to bring about some changes according to the need of the moment. He has the liberty of changing a particular technique if it doesn't seem right or he/she can even combine several different techniques.
- It has been already mentioned that butt lift can either be performed as a solo procedure or as part of the complete body lift. It can even be conjugated with circumferential abdominoplasty.
- The techniques deployed for this surgical procedure may vary since there are a number of options available. However, as a general rule, an incision is made at the buttock top. This incision can also be made in the buttock crease to conceal it. After the incision has been made, excessive skin is removed, whereas the remaining skin is tightened.
- The traditional butt lift techniques have been divided into four broad categories which have been explained below:
- Upper butt lift: Upper butt lift is more invasive and thus more extensive. The incision is made at the buttock top and the excess skin and tissues are removed from this very incision.
- Bottom butt lift: Bottom butt lift is performed in patients who are not suffering from excessive sagging. In this case, an incision is made in the bottom of buttocks. From this incision, excess tissue is removed and then this bottom crease is pulled upwards.
- Butterfly Butt Lift: The incision made in this type of surgery resembles the shape of a butterfly. Hereby, the incision extends from the center towards the outwards crease. This type of surgery is deployed when buttocks do not have to be repositioned or lifted, rather only excessive tissue has to be removed.
-Lateral Butt lift: Lateral butt lift is helpful in reducing the amount of possible scarring. It also helps address mild sagging in buttocks and hips with the help of a lateral incision placed at each buttock's side.
Scars are an inevasible reality with these traditional butt lifts, so the surgeon has to be careful about both the length and the placement of these incisions.
Butt lifts can be conjugated with butt augmentation in which butt implants are placed. Moreover, augmentation can also be brought about if this excessive tissue is repositioned so that it appears to be more attractive and flattering.
What are the results of a Butt Lift?
- The results of this surgical procedure are immediately apparent. However, the full results are generally revealed after a year or so.
- You have to remember that a butt lift doesn't perform the functions of a butt augmentation. It wouldn't endow your buttocks with volume or shape. However, it would give a well-toned appearance nevertheless.
- The results of this surgery can be altered owing to certain factors such as weight fluctuations, pregnancy, aging etc.
However, these results can be quite long-lasting if the patient maintains a healthy lifestyle.
What are the post-operative cares of a Butt Lift?
- Once the surgery has been preformed, the patient is taken to a monitoring room where he/she is closely scrutinized for several hours.
- If all is set, then the patient may head home on the same day.
- However, he/she must make arrangements for a care giver or a helping nurse for at least a couple of days.
- The patient as well as the care giver would be briefed about the post-operative instructions and care. These instructions would cover all aspects such as the setting and emptying of drains, dressing of bandages and other post-operative symptoms.
- The formerly mentioned surgical drains are placed in order to get rid of any fluid that may accumulate and as a consequence accelerate healing.
- There would be a certain level of bruising and swelling after the surgery. In order to reduce this swelling, the patient is recommended to wear a compression garment for a couple of weeks.
- Moreover, the patient should schedule follow-up consultations with his/her surgeon so that his/her recovery progress can be carefully monitored.
- Although the results are immediate after the surgery but only when the skin and tissue is appropriately healed, the results will become much more apparent.
- Excessive pressure on buttocks during this healing period might affect the results so the patient has to learn to sit and lie down without putting much pressure on his/her rear.
- You could consider placing pillows underneath you so that direct contact may be avoided.
- The doctor may prescribe certain pain killers and antibiotics during this time period.
- He/she may even ask you to taken an anticoagulant so that blood clots are not formed.
Recovery Timeline:
The healing pace of each individual is quite different from the other, however as a general rule, the recovery timeline can be delineated as:
- The first week is a strictly off work time. You may have a family member or a friend during this week to take care of you. You can start taking showers after the first three days. Before showering, the compression garment has to be removed gently and then placed gently. During this first week, the patient is asked to lie on his/her side and to avoid sitting.
- If your healing pace is swift then you might return to work after the first couple of weeks.
- The patient's healing pace decides when it is appropriate to remove the sutures; although they are generally removed after the first ten days.
- The patient is advised to take short walks around the house to keep the blood flowing properly, however, strenuous exercises have to be avoided.
- The patient should not have any tobacco or alcohol intake. Aspirin should also be avoided.
- Massage is also an option to enhance the blood circulation.
- The patient may be able to resume his/her normal activities after 3 to 4 weeks, however rigorous exercises are still to be avoided.
- Exposure of skin to sun should be avoided for almost a whole year, however the patient can resume swimming and tub bathing after almost four weeks following the surgery.
- Incisions from butt lift take longer to heal as compared to butt augmentation.
What are the risks of a Butt Lift surgery?
- There is a rare possibility of complications, yet surgical risks are indeed involved.
- The patient may respond adversely to anesthesia.
- There may be a development of a hematoma (although it is extremely rare).
- Some sort of infections or allergies may develop.
- Some organ damage might occur.
- There could be certain levels of scarring.
