How to Build a Slab Roller
Slab rollers are needed when you want to roll clay to a consistent thickness. Various sized slabs can be created. It is particularly popular among potters, who use the roller to create clay slabs and to print designs on those slabs. Various thicknesses of slabs can be created from rollers. After building a slab roller, the artist can perfect the quality of the slab that is being rolled by applying a steady amount of heat and humidity. This will prevent the clay from curling. The clay slab can be adjusted by adding various screws and joints.
Miter four pieces of 1/2-inch by two-inch by 24-inch stock framing lumber into a 45-degree angle with your miter box and back saw. Miter two more six-, 12- and 18-inch pieces to the identical angle. Assemble in the wood box.
Assemble the 24-inch wood pieces to make a square frame. Dry clamp the pieces and ensure all corners make a 90-degree angle with the carpenter try square.
Put the braces on each corner of the square frame. Mark each brace hole position with a carpenter pencil.
Drill a hole in each marked location with a 1/8-inch bit. Secure all braces to the 24-inch frame with manufacturer-supplied fasteners.
Remove all screws from your top and bottom pieces of the frame. Keep the right and left side screws in place.
Separate the top and bottom pieces from the frame and replace them with 18-inch frame pieces. Dry clamp them together. Use a carpenter try square to check that all corners create 90-degree angles.
Mark the brace hole positions on the frame and drill holes into the corners to secure the pieces to the frame.
Repeat the steps until the 12- and six-inch pieces are drilled. Disassemble all the pieces.
Seal and sand the frame pieces with a clear acrylic wood treatment.
- Clean the slab roller after each use with warm water and a soft brush.
- The framing pieces can be assembled in whatever combination you like, but the bottom and top lengths and side lengths need to match.
- The roller will make 24-inch long slabs, that are 24, 18, 12 and six inches wide.

Artist Isabelle Feliu Invites Us Into Her Minimal Oslo Apartment
Welcome to The Makers. Each week, we’re celebrating innovators, artisans and crafters of all types, taking you on a private tour of their creative spaces. For this instalment, artist Isabelle Feliu welcomes us into her home.
If Isabelle Feliu’s art looks familiar to you, it’s probably because you’ve seen it in your dreams—or on Instagram, at the very least. The Québec-born, Oslo-based artist paints lush, idyllic scenes inspired by travel, interiors, nature and womanhood. They’re the kind of pieces you wish you could live inside—with a perfect breakfast scene here, a heavenly holiday moment there. In fact, each dreamscape invented seems more idyllic than the last.
As with her work, Isabelle’s home is a curated space designed to harness imagination and creativity. She describes her style as ‘minimal’ and heavily influenced by her five years in Scandinavia. Still, her colourful artworks take centre stage in the living room and bedroom, with teak mid-century modern furnishings and vintage trinkets placed thoughtfully throughout the space.
The bedroom is a calm and tranquil scene with slate walls and Lavender linens; whilst in her home studio, potted plants, paintbrushes, and colourful mood boards are balanced out with just the right amount of negative space. As you’ll see, Isabelle’s interior aesthetic is stylish and considered—just like the women and scenes she paints.
Shop our exclusive Isabelle Feliu x Bed Threads Prints here.
Hi Isabelle! This series is called The Makers. What is it that you make?
I make illustrations, mostly hand-painted.
How does the act of “making” relate to your personality and who you are?
I am a very introverted person and I am not really good with words. During the last few years, I discovered that painting and drawing was the best way for me to express myself and process my emotions. I just feel better when I paint.
When did you start creating art and painting? And what inspired you to go down this route with your career?
I have always loved to draw, but I never thought about doing it professionally until I moved to Norway a few years ago to be with my boyfriend. I just had a lot of free time and I started to paint every day. Little by little, as I started to gain visibility, I realised that this was something I could do and a lifestyle that worked with my personality.
Talk us through your creative process. Where do you start?
If I am very lucky, I get a clear idea of what I want to do. When that happens, it feels amazing because I have a vision to guide me and it makes me feel confident about the image I’m creating. Most times, though, I start by researching pictures that inspire me, and I try to find the right colour palettes. I then sketch a lot, reworking and overthinking details and compositions until I feel satisfied to go ahead with my final painting.
What’s been the single most crucial tool or strategy you’ve used to grow your creative business?
Definitely social media, I don’t think I would have been able to build my business without it.
What’s been the most challenging lesson learnt since you started your business?
Saying no. I struggled with it at the beginning, but I quickly realised that it wasn’t manageable to accept projects that didn’t inspire me or that I didn’t fully believe in. In this industry, there are a lot of people who want you to work for free, promising exposure among other things. It is important to say no to these offers if you want to keep your energy for projects that you’re truly passionate about and will help you build your career.
What’s been the best thing that’s happened to you since you started your business?
I think that overall, it is great to have more freedom. I had never been in this situation before where I could travel when I wanted and manage my time as I see fit, so I feel extremely privileged to have found this way of working.
Do you have a single piece of advice you’d give to your younger self or someone looking to start their own business?
Don’t listen to others! It sounds a bit cheesy, but it is important to follow your heart. There are no traced paths in the art and creative world, so it is time to do things your way—from your style to your website and social media, how you choose the person and businesses you work with and so on.
Shop Isabelle's look with the Objet Aimee Coquille Vase.
Now, the home stuff. How long have you lived in your home?
Almost five years.
How did you initially know this was the space for you?
I moved to Oslo to be with my boyfriend, and since this is his apartment, it was kind of part of the package. I didn’t get much choice, but I really liked it here which made it easier to move from Montreal.
Did you do any renovations or make any big changes after moving in?
Not really, we just changed the guest room into a little office where I could work.
What was the thought process behind the way you’ve styled the interior?
We live in a very small space, so it is important for us to keep it functional and minimal. We are always careful not to buy too many things and choose pieces that we will love for a long time. We are always asking ourselves, “Do we really need this? Do we have space for it?”
What are your favourite pieces in the home?
We recently got a beautiful throw from BFGF, and I also love our Alvar Aalto vase from Iittala. I love its shape and I often draw it when I feel uninspired.
Do you have any special décor pieces you’re looking to add?
I think we have all we need for now, but I recently got a new apartment in Montreal and I have been obsessing about getting a Helle Mardahl vase, even though the place is currently empty and I should start by getting a bed!
Which is your favourite room in the house?
My little office! It can be a bit challenging to move into someone else’s place, and for me it made it a lot easier to have a little space that is mine.
Shop Isabelle's look with the Lavender Bedding Set.
Tell us about your bedroom.
It has a soothing effect on me. When I moved here, it felt like it was the first time in my life that I had a bedroom that wasn’t chaos. It might be the long and opaque velvet curtains, the dark grey of the walls or the view of the mountains, but I instantly feel calmer when I step in it.
What are your top tips for a well-styled bedroom, and home generally?
I have yet to style a place all by myself, but having lived in small apartments all my life, I definitely value minimalism in decoration. I think it might also be the Scandinavian influence after all these years! These days, we are bombarded with images and it is difficult to know what we truly like or what to buy/style our place with. I think it is important to take a step back and try to understand our true personal taste. Personally, I know that I genuinely like a piece when I still think of it a few months after having seen it for the first time.
Do you have any projects coming up you want to talk about?
In the next few months, I would like to concentrate on personal work and paint more on canvas and bigger format. I’d also love to have a few more collaborations with clothing brands, but we will see!

At least you're consistent with it. There are a lot of people that seem to gripe for the sake of griping or because they jump on the same bandwagon as everybody else that is doing it and it drives me nuts.
You are definitely right about the Mustang bulking up before 1974 and I don't particularly care for the looks of them either but they definitely "resemble", if you want to call it that, the earlier cars more than the later cars.
They sold a lot of the 74-78s though.
They did sell a lot of little Mustang IIs..... I was a kid in high school back then and remember the period very well. I earned my gas and car money working part time pumping gas in 1976-78 at a local gas station on the high way near my parents home. The fact that there were no mechanics working the bays was an added benefit to me and the other guys working there. We had free access to the lifts. Great for working on our cars.
But the other front line look at things I had was the impact higher gas prices had on car design and used car pricing. The muscle cars were cheap and available in a BIG WAY in my youth as second hand cars. I cringe as I think of the cars we DESTROYED as we cut holes in the doors for cheap speakers and then also just allowed them to decapitate because "kids" don't have the coin to properly fix up and restore cars. Everything from Big Block monsters to small block screamers that today fetch big prices at auction were throw away gas guzzlers deemed to be worthless to anyone but kids and gear heads back then.
Those little cars were the desirable models. That '74-'78 Mustang sold well with it's little motors because it could achieve good gas mileage and in a world with gasoline over $1.00/gallon for the first time vs prices under 50 cents just a few years earlier.......the belief at the time was we'd never see "muscle cars" again. Given the new emissions rules and changes required to meet 'em nobody saw the day when it'd be possible anyway.


Most of us, if we were offered 3 Wishes from an all-powerful genrie, would have to think long and hard about the decision. New Orleans repper Curren$y, on the other hand, knows exactly what he’d ask for—and on his latest unreleased joint, debuted on HipHopSince1987 Monday, he fills listeners in on his selections, flowing over a beat by Sarom. Though 3 Wishes isn’t set for inclusion on the project, those digging it should be sure to check out Curren$y’s new “commercial mixtape,” Weekend at Bernie’s, when it drops July 28.

3 Things Design & Construction Pros Learned at a Bautex Hard Hat Tour
60 architects, engineers, and construction professionals joined Bautex for an on-site AIA Lunch & Learn session at the Bella Colinas Medical facility in Bee Cave, Texas.
The Hard Hat event gave attendees the opportunity to learn about building a facility that aligns with Texas building code requirements as well as the benefits of using a single solution wall system to create an insulated structural building envelope.
Here are three key things our attendees took away from the event.
1. How Structural Requirements are Met
The simple integration of the Bautex Wall System with other steel elements was visible in several areas of the building. The group was able to get a close-up view of the concrete elements in the window openings that are typical in Bautex buildings, as well as other unique characteristics.
Getting these close-up views gave everyone the chance to see how Bautex designs its wall system to meet project design requirements. The tour, in addition to the Q&A session afterwards, answered questions from architects as to how they can meet certain building code requirements and other design objectives when starting a new project.
2. The Different Stages of the Bautex Wall System Construction Process
Construction of the Bautex walls on the first of two buildings was well under way, giving attendees the opportunity to see the walls in different stages of construction. The exterior Bautex walls on the front of the building were already built and poured, and structural steel erectors were connecting roof joists to the Bautex walls and interior steel columns and beams. On the East side of the building, workers from Whitetail Construction were quickly building the last of the Bautex Block prior to being poured with concrete.
As the group moved around the inside of the building, they were able to see many of the structural customizations built into the Bautex walls to meet the requirements of the tall single-story building.
Several hard hat tour participants are designing Bautex into upcoming retail, office, public safety, and multi-family projects. Seeing the construction process at Bella Colinas helped them think through details on their own projects as well.
3. Seeing Innovative Construction Details Firsthand
It’s difficult to tell what a wall system looks like or how it will be constructed without first seeing it in the field. Attendees had the opportunity to see the Bautex Wall System being used on the job site, showing them how this system is constructed and used during a project.
They also witnessed the simplicity of detailing and constructing Bautex walls. By going from four to five materials and three to four installers down to one material and one installer, Bautex considerably reduces the complexity, cost and time to design and build this medical building.
The answers to questions around structural details, integration of mechanical, electrical and plumbing items, and installation of interior and exterior finishes become clear on a job site tour like this. Hard hat tour participants were able to see all of these specific construction details directly on this project.

Kratom, a herbal supplement commonly sold online or in local herbal stores, has recently become the center of attention as the DEA has announced its intent to schedule the herb as a Schedule I drug.
This announcement has been very controversial and has resulted in wide protests and debates. Thousands of individuals across the United States use Kratom in order to heal chronic pain, treat anxiety, prevent withdrawal from other harsh drugs and create a general sense of well-being and health.
The History of Kratom
Mitragyna Speciosa, also known as Kratom, is a herb that is naturally found in Southeast Asia in countries such as Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia. Workers in these countries have used the herb for thousands of years for health purposes and to treat a variety of conditions.
Kratom originates from the same plant that coffee comes from and is very similar in terms of effects. Southeast Asian workers have used Kratom for many years to help them work long and grueling hours doing manual labor. Kratom is a way of life in Asia much like coffee is a way of life for many Americans.
Below is a brief video on the history of kratom:
Kratom Is a Natural Product
Kratom users consider Kratom to be more of a natural product than a hardcore drug. It has a very unique ability to heal and alleviate conditions without having adverse chemical side effects. This is very similar to Marijuana, which has a wide variety of uses as a natural medical remedy for many diseases.
Kratom has few, if any side effects and is a safe and natural product. Research shows that there have been no deaths directly attributed to Kratom as a sole cause. All instances of emergency room visits and deaths involving Kratom have involved other harder drugs which were used in conjunction with the Kratom.
Kratom itself is a very safe compound and cannot cause death or any adverse reactions. In the case an individual takes too much Kratom, they will not overdose, they will simply become slightly nauseous. This is similar to an individual drinking too much coffee.
Kratom Is a Natural Alternative to Medicine
Kratom has been used by countless individuals in the United States to get off of harder drugs and prescription medicines. Drug addicts addicted to drugs such as Heroin, Oxycodone or other opiates can use Kratom to easily reduce their withdrawal symptoms.
Once their withdrawal period is over, the user can simply stop using Kratom without any withdrawal symptoms. Kratom offers many of the similar benefits that prescription medicines for pain have but lack any of the deadly side effects that pain medicines have.
There have been many instances where individuals overdose on pain medicine that they receive from their doctor. Kratom, however, does not cause this to happen.
Big Pharma vs Kratom
Many speculate that the reason why the DEA wants to ban Kratom is similar to the reason why Marijuana is so targeted by pharmaceutical companies. Kratom, as well as Marijuana, poses a serious threat to the pharmaceutical industry as a whole.
The American pharmaceutical industry is very huge and has a large amount of power. One of the biggest drugs that pharmaceutical companies push is pain-killer medicine. Many individuals become hooked on these pharmaceutical drugs and this creates a large market for these drugs. Some unfortunate users of prescription pain-killers are unable to stop using these drugs and turn to harder drugs such as Heroin in order to get their fix.
Kratom, unlike pharmaceutical drugs, is a natural plant and is thus unable to patent. Pharmaceutical companies would rather push their prescription drugs than offer a natural alternative such as Marijuana or Kratom. Natural alternatives have no potential to market and make money from because they are under the ownership of no company.
Resistance Amongst the Kratom Community
The DEA's release of their intent to reschedule Kratom was met with strong resistance amongst the Kratom community. Countless individuals and veterans who utilize Kratom in order to deal with pain were very disappointed because they would have to give up a natural plant that dealt with all of their symptoms in a healthful way and have to take prescription drugs instead.
Innocent civilians who simply want to experience the benefits that this plant has to offer would immediately become criminals in the eye of the law. This scheduling would put Kratom in the same category as harder drugs such as Heroin, LSD and MDMA.
The White House Petition
Kratom users and advocates in the United States fought back against the DEA's decision by forming a White House petition to stop the scheduling of the drug. The petition received over 100,000 signatures to stop the ban, which drew the attention of many individuals such as Congressmen and the general press.
This widespread resistance ultimately caused the DEA to withdraw its intent to ban the substance and instead put the issue up to the jurisdiction of the FDA. The issue of Kratom's legality is still up for discussion. Certain parties are still seeking to ban the herb while activists are still fighting to keep the plant legal.
Kratom is a very unique compound that has recently been at the heat of a lot of controversy. Millions attest to the healing properties of the plant and give Kratom credit for its massive potential. Similar to Marijuana, Kratom has the ability to change many peoples' lives for the better by getting them off of harder substances such as Heroin, Oxycodone and pain-killers, providing a natural sense of well-being and alleviating pain from diseases.
Despite glowing reviews from fans of this natural compound, staunch opposition to the plant still remains. Many individuals are against the idea of a herbal solution that could potentially eradicate the entire pharmaceutical business as it stands. Others remain close-minded and refuse to support any compound that is herbal and comes from nature such as Kratom or Marijuana.
However, there is hope for Kratom as many activists are encouraging researchers to further look into the plant and research any potential medical uses the plant may have.

Eco-friendly methods for profitable agriculture
Eco-Friendly Methods for Profitable Agriculture. Eco friendly methods are preferable than using more chemicals & fertilizers in agriculture to make it profitable, said National Institute of Plant Health Management, Director General Dr. K. Satya Gopal here on Thursday.
Eco friendly methods are preferable than using more chemicals & fertilizers in agriculture to make it profitable, said National Institute of Plant Health Management, Director General Dr. K. Satya Gopal here on Thursday.
Speaking to the media at the NIPHM campus on the sidelines of ongoing national workshop cum exhibition on “Popularization and Commercialization of Low cost Agriculture Technologies”, he said that the by using traditional and eco friendly techniques, the problem arising out of insects can be curtailed.
There are some friendly insects around us, if the plants which attract these insects are grown around our fields, that can control the bad insects, he explained. We will provide necessary training in this regard, if anyone interested he added.
He cautioned the farmers on the high usage of pesticides. There are some low cost technologies available, NIPHM will be working as a platform to provide these to the farmers, he said. The ongoing workshop is working in this direction. Around 40-stalls with the agriculture scientists and farmers were setup here to provide the necessary information for the participation, he said.
Renewed institutions like IICT, ICRISAT, NIRD etc are also participating in the work shop. Mr. Gopal added that farmers in huge numbers participated in the workshop during the last two days. Some farmers were interseted to buy the instruments available here and efforts were being made to provide these with the government subsidy, he said.

Beating the Noise: Arecibo and Green Bank Telescopes Detect Faint Signals from Cold Clouds in our Galaxy
Byadmin15 December 2021 Astrophysics
Sensitive measurements conducted at the Arecibo Observatory and the Green Bank Observatory may have probed cold regions in our galaxy where molecules are actively being formed from atoms. These regions are the birthplace of molecular clouds, which eventually produce stars.
The telescopes were able to detect weak carbon recombination lines, which are signatures of electrons making transitions at high quantum states within carbon atoms. Scientists used these observations, in combination with measurements made at other radio frequencies, to determine the densities of the cold clouds.
“These unique observations can provide stringent constraints on the properties of the cold clouds, including the rate of molecule formation, which is not well understood,” says Dr. Anish Roshi, Head of Astronomy at the Arecibo Observatory and lead author of the study to appear in the Astrophysical Journal.
“These unique observations can provide stringent constraints on the properties of the cold clouds, including the rate of molecule formation, which is not well understood,” - Dr. Anish Roshi, Head of Astronomy at the Arecibo Observatory
What makes these detections particularly exciting is how difficult they were to achieve. The telescopes were operating at a radio frequency that is often contaminated by noise from everyday radio devices, like cell phones and televisions. This noise is referred to as Radio Frequency Interference, or RFI. Observers have to deal with RFI even if the telescope is located at a radio coordinate zone (like the Arecibo Observatory site) or at a radio quiet zone (like the Green Bank Observatory site). Special techniques to excise or mitigate RFI are essential for detecting weak astronomical signals outside the allocated bands for radio astronomy. A new RFI excision technique developed at Arecibo Observatory was used to detect the weak carbon recombination lines for the study.
The detections demonstrate that the use of multiple, large telescopes in conjunction with RFI excision algorithms is highly effective for observing weak astronomical signals at frequencies below 1 GHz, where the RFI environments are expected to be particularly bad. Without these excision algorithms, the RFI would be too intense to observe recombination lines at the necessary radio frequencies.
To detect the weak recombination lines, it was also essential to use two of the most sensitive radio telescopes: the 305 meter William E. Gordon telescope at the Arecibo Observatory and the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope.
The combination of these facilities was even more advantageous for this study because the two telescopes were perfectly complementary: the angular resolution of the Arecibo Observatory at 327 MHz is very similar to the angular resolution of the Green Bank Telescope at 750 MHz.
“The matched angular resolution is very important when constraining the properties of the molecular cloud formation regions,” explains Dr. Roshi. “It allows us to observe an identical region of the sky at two different radio frequencies.”
Dr. Roshi and his team will continue the investigation in early 2022 using the Green Bank Telescope to study the well-known molecular cloud forming region called the Heeschen-Riegel-Crutcher cloud.

Baseball is a hard-hitting bat-and-balls sport played between two competing teams, usually of nine players each, who take turns fielding and batting for an allotted period of time. The game continues even if only one player on either team, designated the starting pitcher, throws a live ball to an opponent. Instead, each player on either team attempts to hit a baseball with a Batting Cage, or some kind of cage, that’s been supplied by the other team. Hitting cages have nets extending from them.
A ” batters ” plate” is a small box usually made of plastic, metal or cardboard that contains a number of small compartments for each player to place his or her baseballs. Each player has a unique Batting Cage. It’s where the players place their baseballs while on offense or defense, and it’s also the place where the catcher begins the at-bat ritual by calling “pitch” ( MLB prefers to call it “pickup”) followed by “time.” The time is then printed on the Baseball Card Reading Machine (which measures the time and runs the batting cage), and each team begins the game.
The modern baseball rules allow for fourteen pitches to be thrown in a game. Seven of these fourteen pitches are classified as “holes”. The player who first hits a “hole” is considered the hitter. The player who gets to “hole” first is not necessarily the hitter, but must precede the other team by sliding into home plate. Pitchers throw a pitch (“pickup”) from the Baseball Bag, which is positioned behind home plate. Once a pitcher has thrown an acceptable “pickup”, he may throw any number of pitches (otherwise known as pitches) into any hole on the field.
When a runner is tagged out at home plate, he advances one step to the next base. This is called “pitching” or “conceding”. Once a runner is out at third base, the last player (called a “bulldog” or “second baseman”) may throw a pitch (“soft toss”) from the Baseball Bag. This is also known as ” fielding”. A “pitcher” is any player who may “hand-to-hand” or “hand-on-hand” with his current glove (known as “palming”).
In minor league baseball, beginning pitchers are assigned to classes called “cutters”. As a member of the cutters, a pitcher will learn how to properly manage the pitch while in the air. For instance, at-bat tactics will include facing the opposite field for pitches. Later on, when a pitcher moves up a levels in the major league, he or she will be required to take lessons from more experienced pitchers.
The first game of baseball that most people hear about is the “American League” where the American League used a different system than the National League. In the American League, the game was played with nine players on each team. Unlike the National League, in the American League only two players were on each team at all times. The American League played its home games at home instead of on road, also having four games against teams from other leagues.

Breast lift surgery, also called mastopexy, is an ideal solution for correcting the droopiness and sagging of breasts, typically a result of loss of elasticity that comes with aging, considerable weight loss, pregnancy, or breastfeeding – hereditary can also play a part, as in some cases it may happen that sagging breasts are common amongst other women in the family.
Surgical breast lifts are common and performed by our experienced BeautyHungary plastic surgeons on a regular basis, giving our patients renewed confidence and pride in their femininity. If you have drooping breasts or are not satisfied with their profile and would like to benefit from a breast lift operation, don't hesitate to contact us ; our plastic surgeons will be happy to assist you.
Feel free to ask any questions you have regarding breast procedures, we will thoroughly answer each of them.
Before the breast lift surgery
Before undergoing a breast lift surgery and making any final decision you have to consult with our plastic surgeon and discuss the procedure in details what result you can expect. A lab test and a chest X-Ray will also be carried out either at our Plastic Clinic or at your home country, and send us your results before the surgery.
Before opting to undergo the breast lift surgery there are some considerations that must be taken into account.
- must be in sound mental and physical health
- candidates must have realistic expectations
- must be at least 18 years of age
Your surgeon will set strict guidelines in regards to not smoking, using aspirin or anti-inflammatory drugs prior to surgery.
The breast lift procedure and types of incisions
The surgical breast lift operation is performed in the surgeon's office and can take up to 2 hours.
Your plastic surgeon may use a number of different incisions depending on the shape and size of your breasts, the positioning of the areola, and the skin quality and elasticity. Your surgeon will inform you about the technique he will use for your procedure and precisely how the incision will be made. Breast lift surgery requires general anesthetic.
Incision types that a surgeon is likely to use are:
- areola and vertically down from the areola to the breast crease
- areola, vertically down to the breast crease and horizontally along the breast crease
The breasts and nipples are reshaped and the excess skin is removed.
Every case is unique and needs different type of incision. During your personal consultation with the plastic surgeon, he will explain to you where he has to make incision and what result you can expect. Once the incision has been made the surgeon trims away the excess skin, lifts the tissue of the breast, then raises and sutures it into the desired position. The areola and nipple are then repositioned and sutured in their place.
Variations in breast lifting technique
The type of incision made in your breast lift surgery procedure may vary, depending on the size of your breasts, degree of sagging, and size of areolas - these are all important factors that your plastic surgeon will take into account before determining the breast lift technique that best suits you.
In some cases a surgeon may be able to avoid making a horizontal incision under the breast. Again, depending on the factors, the surgeon may not need to make the horizontal or the vertical incision that goes from the edge of the areola down to the breast crease.
Instead, a modified technique may be used if you are a suitable candidate; these are all issues you should discuss with your plastic surgeon.
Are You a Good Candidate for Breast lift surgery?
The ideal candidate for breast lift surgery is emotionally and physically healthy, well-informed, with realistic expectations. To be an eligible candidate, one must be over 18 years old. The outcome of breast lift surgery will depend on couple of individual factors, such as age, skin elasticity, muscle tone, weight, and overall health.
Breast lift surgery complications
Breast lift surgery is no different than any other surgery in that there are associated complications, although these are somewhat reduced when pre and post-operative guidelines are adhered to.
Some of the complications that may result can include but are not limited to:
- sensitivity of the breasts and nipples
- scarring remains visible after the surgery
- there may be some discoloration
- persistent pain
- allergies to suture or tape
After the breast lift surgery you will be given a comprehensive list of pre and post-operative guideline to adhere to, in order to reduce the risk of complications occurring, allowing for a smooth and faster recovery.
Recovering from a breast lift surgery
The recovery time for a breast lift procedure is short and the results are visible from the very first day.
After the surgery you can usually return to work within a few days and also participate in typical everyday activities, unless a breast augmentation is performed simultaneously, then it may be two weeks before normal activities can be resumed.
A breast lift surgical procedure may result in the patient experiencing other complications; your surgeon will discuss these with you prior to the operation. Our plastic surgeons are multi-lingual and will make sure you are fully informed about every aspect of the operation.
After the breast lift surgery, special bandages or bras are worn until your breasts heal. Many women find that the benefits of a breast lift procedure far outweigh the risks and are soon wearing their favorite clothes again.
Breast lift surgery costs
The breast lift surgery cost includes a personal consultation with your plastic surgeon, general anesthesia, surgery, an overnight stay at the clinic, medications, and post-surgical controls, transfer between airport-hotel-clinic and two special bras (white, black or beige) which you have to wear for a few weeks after breast lift surgery.
Surgical breast lifts are very popular and an increasingly number of women are choosing this type of procedure. If you are dissatisfied with the profile and shape of your breasts and are ready to make some improvements, BeautyHungary will be happy to help you make your dreams come true.

March 2018: The first lyrics and harmonies emerge… Our most elaborate album so far has been created in the course of the past 4 years – an album full of magically atmospheric songs, hymns of pleasure and pain. Influenced by the visions of William Blake, supported by the charismatic singer De La Morte and guitarist Andreas Arndt (Sonnentau, Fire + Ice, Barditus), it contains songs about liaisons with the darkest powers, the loneliness in most painful hours, the longing for love and light – the Flames of the Sun!
December 2022: “Sonnenflammen” will be released as a lavishly designed digipak (with golden hot foil print, incl. booklet)
Neofolk anthems alternating with ambient moments merged into one fiery brew … “Devotion” and “Lied der Flamme” have been partially re-orchestrated and completely re-arranged.

Being one of the hottest months of the year, February is all about reaping what you have sown; it's one of the main harvest periods. Keep feeding your plants with a fertiliser like NovaTec Premium.
Coming up in the garden in February
Plenty of fruit crops are ripening this month. Plan ahead and preserve some of summer’s bounty to enjoy in the cooler months. Pick Passionfruit, strawberries, loganberries, raspberries, apricots, peaches, plums, apples.
Being one of the hottest months of the year, it is important to keep in mind that both sun and heat take at lot of moisture from the flower garden. Only plant in the morning or evenings as it is less stressful for the plants, and keep garden beds well watered.

Atif Amin became enraged after he was told he must pay a £4 charge for using the drop-off, pick-up facility. The taxi driver was adamant that his disability parking badge allowed him free entry into the NCP car park.
After being told that he must pay the charge, Amin smashed the display screen of the payment machine with a torch, causing £2,700 worth of damage.
Procurator fiscal depute Amber Feeney told Paisley Sheriff Court the incident took place at the NCP car park within Glasgow Airport around 5.20am on January 4 last year.
Ms Feeney explained: “Witnesses were working in the NCP Main Office when the accused’s car approached the drop-off and pick-up point and pressed the intercom button.
“He was informed he had to pay £4 to use the drop-off, pick-up area.
On sentencing, Sheriff Eoin McGinty said: “This was a very expensive car park for you as you now have a compensation order of £2700 to pay.”
Sheriff McGinty ordered Amin, of Muirhouse Park in Edinburgh, to pay £2700 compensation at the rate of £120 per month.


Build a refrigerator below zero
Because of the gas density In the macro coil Single-phase refrigerant is not created And No need for a receiver tank
What is a macro channel?
It is a kind of aluminum condenser
This is a type of aluminum condenser that has been designed with anti-corrosion coating for 10 years and is used in the automotive industry.
1.Macro channel for some reason:
Extremely efficient design Which rejects heat up to 40% Unlike standard condensers It is possible that By several channels Inside the tube And a base connection between the pipes be done
2.One-way air flow path Through channels This makes it possible Up to the channels fewer Be blocked.
3.100% aluminum design With anti-corrosion coating resulted in Increase the coil resistance significantly and give it less weight
4.Macro Coil Somehow designed That chilled gas 60% less than copper pipes And it needs less fresh air ، as a result : Fewer fans And Low power consumption
5.Because of the gas density In the macro coil And single-phase refrigerant is not created And is not the need for a receiver tank
6.remember With Using a condenser macro coil We reduce the volume of gas consumption And if possible, less damage to the environment is possible
***This may be the case for everyone That Heat transfer from copper is higher than aluminum So why is the macro coil more efficient?
Response: In the above sections The variety of special designs of this system was mentioned And we can see In the structure of copper condensers.

What makes the Euro Truck Simulator 2 one of Steam’s best selling games of 2018?
It’s not a game, is a meditation platform
Among the 40 best selling games of 2018 on Steam, there is one quite big surprise: Euro Truck Simulator 2 (ETS2).
It’s enough to look at the reviews player left for the ETS2 to understand just how praised the game is in the community: 96% of the 103,900 reviews are positive. But that doesn’t quite explain how Euro Truck Simulator 2 is still relevant for a list of 2018 best sellers.
We guess its secret is the 55-item list of downloadable content that the devs at SCS Software put together in all these years. In the end, this makes for a €153 addition to the stock game’s price tag of €19,99. Combine this with the ‘overwhelmingly positive’ review status and it starts to make sense, doesn’t it?
The thing is, it’s worth it. It took me less than 80 hours to understand not necessarily how addictive this game is, but how good it makes me feel while playing it. Just as PC Gamer’s Tim Stone puts it in his review, Euro Truck Simulator 2 is “unexpectedly engrossing. Heed the mockers and you'll miss one of the PC's finest and freshest driving games.”
It’s the most relaxing vehicle-related game you’ll ever play. I fell asleep playing it and I’d happily do it again. Luckily, console players will be able to experience this through the promised Truck Driver.

I fell in love with the chicken bacon ranch pizza at Papa Johns, but it was too expensive. So I put my own twist on it, and I like mine better. Taste and cost wise!
Blue Ribbon Recipe
We loved Elizabeth's take on making this pizza at home. Not only is it yummy, it makes 2 hearty pizzas for a fraction of the cost of ordering out. The chicken really has a punch of flavor. It soaks up the flavor from the ranch seasoning, onions, and sun-dried tomatoes. Adding bacon is sort of equivalent to a cherry on top. So many layers of yummy goodness in this pizza!
mozzarella cheese; large (about 1 1/2 - 2 cups per pizza)
Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning
Philadelphia cream cheese (room temp); 8 oz each
How To Make chicken bacon ranch pizza
Over medium heat, add cubed chicken and diced onion to pan. Cook until chicken done.
Add sun-dried tomatoes, salt and pepper and ONE packet of Ranch seasoning; stir together and set aside.
Pre heat oven to 400*
While bacon is cooking, in a food processor add 2 boxes of cream cheese (room temp) and the other packet of ranch seasoning, and mix together on a med. speed for 2 mins. (should look like frosting)
Follow cooking directions for pizza crusts and bake. Once baked, spread half of the cream cheese sauce on the cooked pizza crust.
Add half of the chicken mixture.
Cover with 1/2 packet of mozzarella cheese and 3 slices of crushed up bacon.
Place in the oven for 20 mins or to your preference of cooking.
Makes 2 large pizzas
Last Step: Don't forget to share!
Make all your friends drool by posting a picture of your finished recipe on your favorite social
network. And don't forget to tag Just A Pinch and include #justapinchrecipes so we can see it too!

Still going strong over 100 years after first opening its doors, Quimet y Quimet is a Barcelona institution. If the line out the door indicates anything, it’s that this is one of the tapas bars in Barcelona that is not to be missed. Despite being a standing room only place that can fit 15-20 people at a time, Joaquim (“Quim”) Pérez continues to welcome patrons to the same establishment that his great-grandfather first opened in 1914 to sell homemade wine.
Located in El Poble-Sec just off the Avenida del Parallel, patrons will find a somewhat quirky tapas bar that specializes in creating the most delicious tapas from “conservas” which are canned foods, including vegetables, seafood and meats. Spain is known for producing some of the highest quality canned food in the world, and the walls inside of the tiny Quimet y Quimet are lined with cans of food and bottles of wine. Diners can select from a wide range of offerings, including a long list of traditional tapas, fresh local cheeses and meats, and over 30 “montaditos”, which are tapas that are served open-face on a piece of bread and are created on the spot.
Once you step into Quimet y Quimet you will feel like you have stepped back in time, as the place has not changed much since it first opened. You can go traditional with your selections, or you can let Quim and his staff create something new for your that will be sure to delight your culinary palette.

Buddy Bench Dedicated to Late Carminati Teacher Michael Shelton, Friend to All
On September 19, 2019, Carminati Elementary held a special ceremony to dedicate a Buddy Bench in memory of the late Michael Shelton, who taught fourth-grade at Carminati but passed away unexpectedly last spring.
Shelton worked as a teacher at Carminati for more than 11 years but before that, he was an instructional assistant and then a computer lab assistant.
The dedication began with upbeat music playing and students dancing and singing while the entire school and many District personnel gathered around a blue bench underneath a shade tree where Shelton could be found every morning before school until the bell rang.
Carminati Principal Wendy Reeck opened with, “We are here to honor someone who gave more to us than we can ever thank him for.”
“Every single morning, he was on the playground long before anyone else, welcoming students and making sure that everyone was taken care of,” said Reeck, who explained that he made himself available if anyone needed to talk.
The Buddy Bench, donated by the Carminati PTO, is a symbol of what Michael Shelton represented to the Carminati community.
Reeck explained, “This bench is a safe place for anyone to come anytime during the day and sit and know that someone will sit down next to them and be their buddy.” That’s exactly what Mr. Shelton did every morning for the students and staff at Carminati.
“He was there to spread his kindness,” she said. “Everyone felt comfortable to come and talk to Mr. Shelton.”
Reeck didn’t know this at first, but Mr. Shelton gave out Tootsie Rolls because he wanted everyone to have a moment to think about what it means to be kind.
Shelton was a friend to all. He spread kindness all throughout the day.
“When you witness a kind deed; when you open a door for someone, when you help someone and say, ‘good job, nice try,’ or when you make someone new to Carminati feel welcome, that’s Mr. Shelton’s heart working through all of you,” said Reeck.
This bench will be a way for people to follow his example of caring for others.
For the last two years, Shelton taught fourth grade and made quite an impression on his students. Two of his fourth-graders from last year spoke at the dedication.
Samantha Messerschmidt, fifth-grader and student council president, said, “Everyone remembers Mr. Shelton. He was a great teacher here at Carminati. He came to school every day with a smile on his face and his Circle-K coffee. He would sit here and help students with their work. He was very kind. I remember one day a kindergartner was cold and told Mr. Shelton. He gave her his jacket. We love you, Mr. Shelton.”
Another one of Shelton’s former students, Fifth-Grader Sophia Perez spoke next, “Mr. Shelton believed that kindness matters. He always gave back to charities and fundraisers. He was also very funny. One day he spilled his coffee and said, ‘Burrito, taquito, enchilada, potata.’ It was the funniest thing ever,” and the crowd all erupted in laughter.
Perez also talked about some Kindness Matters cards that were handed out at Shelton’s funeral that said, “In loving memory of Michael Ray Shelton.” She described the cards, “On the back, it had some ways and reasons to be kind. I still use it to this day.”
Rushell Wreschner, Michael’s sister, stood near the bench, with two big bows of blue, Shelton’s favorite color, tied on either end, and read the silver placard on it: “Buddy Bench in Loving Memory of Mr. Shelton.”
Kelly Trujillo, kindergarten teacher, also talked about what kind of person Shelton was, “Mr. Shelton brought happiness to everyone he was around. We are going to spread a little happiness today by letting some blue balloons go.” On the countdown, everyone yelled, “Kindness Matters!” and then let go of blue balloons that floated up into the clear, blue sky.
Afterward, Wreschner said the ceremony summarized what her brother’s life meant. “This means his memory will live on and won’t be forgotten,” she said.
The Carminati school library will also be getting some Buddy Bench books to go with the bench.
Michael Ray Shelton may have left us too soon, but he is still with us in his kind spirit that lives on with every kind deed. He has definitely made a big impact on anyone who knew him and even those who didn’t.
To this day, Wreschner still hands out “Kindness Matters” cards to people behind her in a drive-thru, after paying for their order, as a friendly reminder to people she doesn’t know that “Kindness Matters.” On the card are some simple ways to show kindness, like give someone a hug, let someone go in front of you, ask if you can help, say please and thank you, forgive someone, and the list goes on.
As a tribute to the beloved Michael Shelton, who did so much for so many others, whenever you get the chance, do something kind for someone, because “Kindness Matters!”

As I said in my earlier post, I went to Wegmans for dill and got scallops.
The scallops are marinating in lemon olive oil, salt, pepper and lemon zest. I bought the dill to use in my tzatziki and to add to my pickles.
The dinner tonight was exceptional, with the scallops the star.
They were grilled after the marinating, and served with my beans, farmers market asparagus, CSA carrots and English peas from Butler’s.
I made dill butter. It went over the steamed veggies and the grilled asparagus.
I also made the tzatziki to use tomorrow. Made with lemon juice, my cukes, spring garlic, my mint and Wegmans dill, and Wegmans Greek yogurt. I decided not to add the onion, and used only the tops of the garlic. The rest will be used later.
The dinner also included a local wine from Glen Manor, to complement the scallops. Citrusy, light and perfect for scallops.
And, since the dill butter was so delicious, we grabbed some Wegmans bread to sop it up.
OK, I could do carryout, or run to restaurants but this meal was incredible at a fraction of the price of dining out.

Nearly 100% of the county’s overall property tax charges were paid, resulting in $7.2 billion in revenue.
Treasurer-Tax Collector Dan McAllister issued a statement saying the county posted a 99.02% figure “under the cloud of the pandemic.”
“San Diego County is now home to a record 1,001,029 parcels,” McAllister said. “For this last deadline, we surpassed the percentage of taxes paid over what was paid in 2020. We’ve seen that taxpayers are stepping up and paying what they owe. This is beneficial for our public schools and first responders,” he said.
Of the $7.27 billion owed for the first installments of the 2020-2021 property tax bills, approximately $7.20 billion has been paid, he said.
Property taxes fund schools, libraries and other services that city and county residents use. McAllister said taxpayers can go to sdttc.com to view and pay their bill, which is “the best way to avoid late penalties.”
“Our electronic payments through free e-check also increased to 67%, largely because our public counters were closed for a year and half,” he said.
“There’s no fee to use an e-check online, and you will get an immediate receipt that you wouldn’t receive paying by mail,” McAllister said.
McAllister said other reasons to pay property taxes online include a secure website; fast, easy-to-use system; and environment-friendliness. Details on how taxes are allocated can be found at www.sdttc.com.

Here at the holidays I line to take the time to have some fresh dairy products in the house to control the quality of what we get. Actually I like to all year round. These are such simple methods of doing what is good for the recipes all year round.
How to Make Crème Fraîche (in One Easy Step!) Recipe
1 Pint Heavy Cream
2 Tablespoons Cultured Buttermilk
Combine buttermilk and heavy cream in a non*reactive container. Cover and allow to rest at room temperature until thickened to desired texture, about 12 hours. Store in refrigerating for 2 weeks.
Fresh Ricotta RECIPE:
2 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon table salt
2 tablespoons distilled white vinegar or lemon juice (I recommend the vinegar)
Line colander with four layers of cheesecloth or 2 layers of food-safe paper towels and set over large bowl. Combine milk, salt, and vinegar or lemon juice in microwave-safe glass 1-quart liquid measure. Microwave on high heat until lightly bubbling around edges, 2 to 4 minutes (milk should register about 165°F on an instant-read thermometer). Remove from microwave, and stir gently for 5 seconds. Milk should separate into solid white curds and translucent liquid whey. If not, microwave for 30 seconds longer. Repeat until fully separated.
Using slotted spoon or wire skimmer, transfer curds to prepared colander (lined with paper towels). Cover exposed top with plastic wrap, and allow to drain until desired texture is reached. Store in covered container in refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Graham Potter will try to salvage his career at Chelsea and their UCL tie after a 1-0 loss in the first leg when Chelsea hosts Dortmund in the second leg on 8 March.
With his quick pace and skill set, German attacker Karim Adeyemi, 21, broke past Chelsea’s defence to score the game’s only goal. On the field, Chelsea players anguished, sweated, and shed blood in an effort to recover. Dortmund’s tenacious defence, though, managed to preserve their one-goal advantage. Since the beginning of the Graham Potter era, Chelsea has been trapped in muck. Yet, Chelsea finally succeeded in luring fortune to their side as they defeated Leeds United for their first victory since 15 January.
The hosts have played 12 matches in 2023 and they have managed to win only two of them. In the remaining ten games they have lost 6 and drawn 4. On the other hand, Dortmund has yet to taste defeat’s sour flavour. In 2023, Dortmund has 11 wins in 11 matches.
While speaking in the pre-match press conference Graham Potter addressed the fact that if Chelsea loses the tie, the season will be over for him. “I agree it’s a big game, an exciting game, a chance to go through to the last eight of the Champions League. It’ll be a special night. Our thoughts are on being positive and trying to win the game. It’s a good challenge for us, a big challenge for us. We’re excited for it and looking forward to it,” Graham Potter said in the pre-match conference.
The fate of the game will be conspired by the performance of the players from both teams. For Chelsea Joao Felix, Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling will play a pivotal role in the attacking front. While for Dortmund, Jude Bellingham, Karim Adeyemi and Marco Reus will threaten Chelsea’s hope for a turnaround.
