The Tactical Roguelike Truck Game “Convoy” Is Coming This April

If you’re looking for an old-school game that plays like a tactical roguelike but also has a weird concept, then Convoy from Triangle Studios BV might be for you. Inspired by Mad Max and other games of the same genre, this game has you looking for scrap parts to fix a spaceship after having crash-landed on a desert planet. You’ll have to navigate the terrain, deal with three controlling factions, and get all of the parts you need to get the hell of the rock you’ve landed on. The game will officially be released on April 8th for all three major consoles. In the meantime, enjoy the trailer below!

Presented in pixel art and set in a future post-apocalyptic setting, Convoy is a squad based tactical roguelike-like in its core. You travel with your combat vehicles and convoy across a wasteland to find parts needed to repair your broken spaceship. During your journey you will encounter strangers in randomized scenarios by picking up radio signals. Depending on the choices you make, signals can either lead to tactical combat, text based dialogue or chance based role-play. Whatever choice you make, you need to keep your convoy and its cargo safe from raiders, privateers and other enemies. Keep upgrading your vehicles, as death is permanent in Convoy.

Throwback Thursday: Writing Non-Human Characters #3: Robots

Originally published: 28/05/2017

Well, it’s week three on my impromptu series of posts on creating non-human characters for your stories. We’ve already done animals and aliens, so this week, I want to focus on creating robots. Now I don’t want to waste too much time getting bogged down on the technical differences between robots, androids, cyborgs and so on, so for the sake of this post, I’m using the word ‘robot’ simply as an umbrella term for any kind of mechanical or artificial person. Suffice it to say there are important differences between robots, androids and cyborgs and you would be well advised to understand them before attempting to create one for your story.

If you’ve been keeping up to date on the last few posts, you will have noticed a common theme running through them: the idea of anthropomorphising (that is, giving human traits to) your non-human characters to to make them more relatable to your audience. However, as we have also seen, the extent to which you anthropomorphise your character and how you go about anthropomorphising your character will vary greatly depending on the kind of character you’re trying to create and what their purpose is in your story.

One of the first things to consider in creating your robotic character is a bit of the history of the character and the history of robotics for your fictional world in general. Of course, backstory is important in all character building, but for robots there are a few other important questions you will need to answer first. For example (and this is by no means an exhaustive list):

  • Are robots commonplace in this society or are they a new invention?
  • What is the function of robots in this society (e.g., slaves, free and equal citizens, problem-solving machines, childrens’ toys, etc)?
  • Are robots in general/your robot in particular built with fail-safes, such as Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics? If not, how are they kept from running amok? Indeed, are they under control? Many stories about robots revolve around this very theme.

Depending on your answer to these and similar questions, you may want to make your robot characters seem very human or very mechanical. However, if you’ve got any intention of making your robot a main character in your story, you will probably want to give them at least some human traits to make them relatable to your entirely human audience. This is a fairly absolute rule for all non-human characters (as we’ve seen in previous weeks), so you should consider giving your robot some or all of the following:

  • The ability to think, learn and reason independently. You’ll have a hard time creating a full-blown independent character without this.
  • Self-awareness and consciousness of its surroundings. Again, I think it would be exceptionally difficult (though not impossible) to create a proper robotic character without this human quality.
  • Emotions, dreams, empathy, and other such non-logical thoughts to motivate their actions etc. This of course, is certainly optional; many robots in science fiction tend to be very logical and emotionless but why not break with tradition?
  • Recognisable physical body parts. Of course, ‘recognisable’ does not necessarily mean that they have to be human-shaped. K-9 from the Doctor Who franchise is shaped like a dog and one episode of Star Trek: Voyager even featured a sentient WMD. K-9 is the more relatable of the two, of course, because we humans are used to relating to dogs. Dogs that we can talk to and play chess with, therefore, are highly relatable. On the other hand, when was the last time you tried to interact with a WMD? (Don’t answer that).

The difference with robots is that your audience will already have quite particular ideas about how a robot “should” behave. This is, in part, due to the influence of sci-fi authors like Asimov, but is also due to the fact that robots and computers do exist in real life (though in a more limited fashion than you would expect in a sci-fi novel)We know, for example, that computers are logical to a fault and it’s important that your character reflects that peculiarly robotic quality if you want your audience to accept them. Abstract thinking, imagination and personal ambition is something beyond the grasp of most computers and robots. The trouble is, if you want your audience to care about your character, they’ll probably need to be capable of at least some of the above.

How you balance this contradiction will depend largely on the story you’re writing and the kind of character you’re trying to create but one of the best ways around this problem is how you use voice. Often you can create the illusion of a highly logical, robotic mind simply by the way your character speaks. Let’s consider two androids from the Star Trek: The Next Generation franchise: Lore and Data.

Both androids are physically identical and were built by the same person. Only Lore, however, was capable of emotion and with this came a whole host of other human traits such as ambition, passion, deceitfulness and even megalomania. Lore’s human qualities were what made him such a great villain and were central to his role as a bad guy in Star Trek. Therefore, it is perfectly appropriate that he also talks like a human.

Haven’t you noticed how easily I handle human speech? I use their contractions. For example, I say can’t or isn’t, and you say cannot or is not.

Lore in Star Trek: The Next Generation, ‘Datalore’, source:

Data, on the other hand, lacks emotion and the other human qualities which turned Lore into a bad guy. In spite of this, he remains one of Star Trek‘s most beloved characters. How is it that such an emotionless, logical, robotic character became so relatable (and far more likeable than his more human brother)?

He’s not nearly as logical and robotic as he appears. It’s a trick, based largely on dialogue (and the occasional scene where he casually removes a body part) to make the audience believe that he is emotionless and logical because — after all — all robots are. He speaks in a “robotic” manner, such as calculating time intervals to the nearest second and not using verbal contractions, and so the audience believes that he is a machine and yet his goals and motivations are often very human indeed. For example, in ‘Pen Pals’, what motivated him to disobey Starfleet regulations and his captain’s orders if not compassion for the frightened child he had met? So, the writers have given Data a human quality (e.g., compassion) but have essentially tricked the audience into believing that they did not, because he appears robotic and makes the occasional claim that he is incapable of such traits. So, while is very important to strike the correct balance of human/robotic traits, the real trick with robots is how you portray them and thus convince your audience that the relatable and sympathetic character they are witnessing is, in fact, a machine.

I’m afraid that’s all I’ve got time for this week! But be sure to come back next when I’ll be continuing the series on non-human characters, this time focusing on mythical creatures.

Until next time!

WORLD Vaccination center set up at Bangkok shopping center

Vaccination center set up at Bangkok shopping center

By Sun Guangyong | People's Daily app

19:11, May 31, 2021

Bangkok (People’s daily) – A vaccination center was set up at one shopping center in Bangkok on Monday, making it the eighth of 23 vaccination centers planned at shopping centers across Thailand to boost the country’s mass vaccination drive.

Photos provided to People's Daily

The vaccination center was jointly set up by ‘centralwOrld’ Shopping Center, King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital, the Thai Red Cross Society, Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) and the Thai Chamber of Commerce. ‘centralwOrld’ Shopping Center, where the newly-set vaccination center is housed, was inspected by Prime Minister Gen Prayut Chan-o-cha, Interior Minister Gen Anupong Paochinda and Bangkok Governor Pol Gen Aswin Kwanmuang.

The vaccination center covers 4,500 square meters and is capable of serving a large number of staff and public. It will help reinforce Central Pattana’s leading position in accelerating mass vaccination by hosting vaccination centers at Central shopping centers around the Southeast Asian country.

The vaccination center is also part of “Thai Ruam Jai, Safe Bangkok” project to administer COVID-19 vaccines to Bangkok residents. In the first phase, the center will administer vaccines to medical personnel, frontline staff, and volunteers who have registered for the vaccines. The center is expected to service the general public staring June 7, depending on the government mandate.

Vaccination registration through the Thai Ruamjai system is allowed for every Thai citizen in the Bangkok area aged between 18 and 59.

What is 14% of 7?

What is % of ?

How to solve this problem

A step by step guide

The purpose of solving this problem is to determine what 14% of 7 is. One common real life problem where a solution like this may be helpful include calculating how much tip to leave at a restaurant. Solving this problem requires two simple math operations that you can perform on any calculator. The first step is a division and the second step is a multiplication. Here's a cool tip though, you can actually reverse the order of these operations and the result will be the same! Here are the steps:

Step 1: Divide 7 by 100
In this case, the number that we are "comparing" to 100 is 7, so we must first normalize the number by dividing it by 100. The operation we have to solve is this: $$ \frac{7}{ 100 } = 7 \div {{ 100 }} = 0.07$$

Step 2: Multiply 0.07 by 14 to get the solution
Now that we have our normalized number, 0.07, we just have to multiply it by 14 to get our final answer. The forumla for this is obviously quite simple: $$ 0.07 \times 14 = 0.98 $$

That's all there is to it! Note that you can replace these values with new ones from any similar problem.

In this case, the number that we are "comparing" to 100 is 5, so we must first normalize the number by dividing it by 100. The operation we have to solve is this: $$ \frac{5}{ 100 } = 5 \div {{ 100 }} = 0.05$$

Step 2: Multiply 0.05 by 78 to get the solution
Now that we have our normalized number, 0.05, we just have to multiply it by 78 to get our final answer. The forumla for this is obviously quite simple: $$ 0.05 \times 78 = 3.9 $$

That's all there is to it! Note that you can replace these values with new ones from any similar problem.

How do I know what size is best for my pet?

Based on the feedback from pet owners, we find that the small size is usually used for cats or small dogs. The large size is usually used for large dogs or as a water bowl for any sized animal.

Like us humans, we know all pets are different and understand that the customers/owners can usually determine which size bowl is preferred for their little furry individual and their needs. Following are the dimensions of our bowls to provide an idea and understanding of our sizes:

Height: 50mm
Diameter: 130mm

Height: 75mm
Diameter: 190mm

How do I care for my product?

 All our bowls are dishwasher safe, however we recommend that the premium bowls with the gold and silver rims be hand-washed where possible to ensure that the gold or silver paint lasts longer.

The bowls with the gold and silver paint are not microwaveable.

How is my product packaged?

Luxury products call for beautiful packaging. All our precious bowls are individually packaged in our swish, yet sturdy boxes that are custom made to fit and protect your item.

In addition, the box is made of recycled material and can be reused as a keep-sake box or however you prefer.

Special public avalanche warning for the Rockies and northwest B.C.

Avalanche Canada, in partnership with Parks Canada and Alberta’s Kananaskis Country, is issuing a Special Public Avalanche Warning for recreational users of backcountry and front country avalanche terrain, in effect immediately until Sunday, Dec. 27. The warning is widespread and applies to the following forecast regions:

  • Kootenay-Boundary
  • South Columbia
  • North Columbia
  • Purcells
  • Cariboos
  • North Rockies
  • South Rockies
  • Lizard Range-Flathead
  • Banff National Park
  • Yoho National Park
  • Glacier National Park
  • Waterton Lakes National Park
  • Kananaskis Country

The snowpack is currently in a precarious state throughout these regions due to the presence of a critical weak layer 60–100 cm below the snow surface. The storms that blew through western Canada over the past week added sufficient snow above the weak layer to bring the snowpack to a tipping point where large avalanches can be easily triggered by people on snowshoes, skis, or snowmobile.

“With indoor gatherings restricted by the pandemic, we recognize many of us will want to spend time outdoors in our beautiful backcountry over the holidays,” explains James Floyer, forecast program supervisor for Avalanche Canada. “People must be aware that even though the weather has settled, dangerous avalanche conditions remain throughout much of western Canada. There is a serious potential for large, human-triggered avalanches at this time.”

Avalanche Canada, Parks Canada, and Kananaskis Country warn all backcountry users and anyone recreating in avalanche terrain, including those going outside ski area boundaries, to make conservative terrain choices and stick to low-angle or densely forested slopes. Approach any slope that is steep enough to avalanche with extra caution, and be on the lookout for terrain traps like cliffs, rocks, gullies, and creek beds, which can make the consequences of even a small avalanche even worse.

“We know sunny weather can give people a false sense of security when they venture into the backcountry,” adds Floyer. “This is not the time to let your guard down. Steep open slopes will look tempting but are best left alone for now.”

Those heading to the mountains to snowshoe or explore the front and backcountry should also be aware that many popular summer trails are exposed to avalanche terrain. Plan ahead and research your route to make sure you are avoiding these areas, or hire a certified guide to lead your party. For more information, visit the Parks Mountain Safety website.

Backcountry users should always check their regional avalanche forecasts at Everyone in a backcountry party needs the essential rescue gear—transceiver, probe and shovel—and the knowledge to use it.

Trinidad, General Cepeda, Mexico

We learned that we were expecting our sixth sweet baby a few weeks ago, but two weeks later, God called our baby to Heaven.  That evening I contemplated staying home in bed and skipping out on the thirty minute bumpy van ride to a small nearby town to give testimonies with the rest of our group. But I felt Jesus giving me the strength to go. We sang songs and a few of us went up to the front of the chapel to give talks and testimonies. Then we invited anyone from the town to do the same. Usually no one comes forward. But this night, a lady who had been standing all evening in the back of the chapel came forward with tears in her eyes.  She said she had a dream a couple days beforehand that missionaries would come to the chapel and that she needed to go to hear what they would say. So, she started to read her bible for the first time in a long time. And she said that the testimony I gave was what she needed to hear and she was so grateful. She said she now believes and knows God is real.

Thank you, Jesus for your love. And for showing us how much you love us.

Our Story

Sometimes God calls us to do quite simple things- like “Go and pray for a friend” or “Help your sister change her flat tire”. These things can be quite ordinary, but nonetheless they eventually reveal to us more and more in some capacity who the person of Christ is. Our lives so far as a family have been filled with these “simple things”. Take the kids to school, pray before dinner, teach your son to ride a bike, etc etc. And we have certainly seen the face of Christ in all of them. But over the last few years we have sensed that God was moving us in a deeper way- we just we not so sure exactly what that was…

We are a family of seven (at least for now) Phillip, Lacy, William (8), Annie (7), Miriam (5), Norah (4), Lily (1) and we will be using this blog to highlight the many ways God is speaking to us or revealing Himself to us. We are The Brupbacher’s or The BruCrew

About a year ago some dear friends of ours invited us to attend a short term mission trip in General Cepeda, Mexico. This was something that we have longed to do as a family but basically had always written it off because we assumed our kids were too young or simply because we were always expecting a child… But, the power of an invitation by some dear friends of ours proved to be just what we needed- just the proper amount of encouragement and invitation from God to eventually change our lives.

So we loaded up our van and made the two day drive into Mexico with a bunch of other families. While we ought to devote an entire blog to that trip we will simply state that the following occurred in our lives:
1. God showed us the beauty and truth in His words “Blessed are the poor in spirit- those whose entire dependence is based upon God.”
2. Blessed were we to even be able to dwell among them and serve them for even just such a short time.
3. Could we be called to live a life as a family serving and befriending the poor- sharing the Gospel with those in great need and learning from their simple and beautiful faith?

After our incredible week we headed back home with the question burning in our hearts “God could you actually be calling us to move to a foreign land to following you as a missionary? The question was both invigorating and terrifying. We sought out some spiritual direction and continued to ask God to move in our hearts and minds and to speak to us in this area of our lives.

Neither one of us is extremely trigger happy when it comes to these types of things so we simply kept bringing it to God in prayer. Over time we found that God continued to place this desire on our hearts and that indeed the calling was real. There was so much stirring in our hearts- “Come and follow me closer” “Come and serve those in great need” “Do not worry for I am with you” “You can trust me in the little things and now I am asking you to trust me in a larger thing”

Then one morning we were blown away by a video we saw on Facebook shared by a friend of ours- quite simply the video summed up everything that was going on in our hearts and minds.
Take a moment to view that video below:

So, put simply, we found that Jesus was calling us to go deeper into our faith and to sell all we had to follow Him in preaching the Gospel and serving the poor. This is the calling He gave to us- and we are thrilled. We searched far and wide looking at various Catholic and Christian mission organizations and have found an unbelievable home with Family Missions Company. They are a group of lay Catholic Missionaries who dedicate their lives to preaching the gospel and serving the poor. We have joined into their formation program and will be sent out to a foreign land to preach the gospel and serve the poor in early 2017.

We will dedicate this blog as a family blog for those of you interested in following our simple little journey. We will also post prayer requests and various needs of those we serve. We have been so blessed with tremendous families and friends and we would love for you to come with us on this new journey of ours.

I'm about to buy a wireless remote shutter release. However, all shutter releases that I saw so far are attached to the flash shoe and cover the build-in flash. Are there wireless remote shutter releases out there that allow me to use an external or build-in flash?

Thanks, Ralf

  • Thank you for asking, I was wondering the same exact thing!

they're designed to fit on the hotshoe because that's a handy place. It's pretty much the only place to mount stuff on cameras. You don't HAVE to mount it there. Velcro, rubber band, straps, use whatever to mount it where ever. Depends on how you're mounting your camera.

  • Ahhh, I though they put it on the hot-shoe because of power-supply reason. So I guess the sender has a battery. Thanks for that!

    Just for the sake of completeness -- this is the perfect application for one of those rinky-dink little "flash brackets" (you know the ones) that are so cheap, flimsy and small that they're completely useless for an actual flash. I used to use one for the auto thyristor sensor for a slaved flash when using on-camera flash for fill.

Many cameras have an optical wireless remote release sensor. An optical remote is just a couple of $$'s (like this example) and requires no special receiver to be attached to the camera. Of course, you generally need line of sight to the camera, or at least a good reflection from nearby walls or ceiling.

  • Out of 311 current cameras, only 24 feature a wireless (infrared actually) remote sensor, so I would say it is far from most.
    – Itai
    Feb 21 '11 at 2:52
  • @Itai - This is certainly surprising. Do you include all P&S in this count? If so, then definitely I am biased towards the bigger cameras. The OP talks about a camera with a hot-shoe that has a socket for a cable release. I assumed this is a SLR or a bridge compact. Do you suggest that out of these only the minority can be triggered optically? What camera has a cable release but no IR sensor?
    – ysap
    Feb 21 '11 at 7:15
  • @yasp - Excuse my lack of imagination ;) you said most cameras so simply wanted to dispel that. There are 70 current cameras with hot-shoe (neocamera.com/search_camera.php?hotshoe=1) and only 18 have wireless remote sensors (see bottom of Refine Result box on page linked above). 40 of them support a wired remote, keep in mind that some models support both, so the number of cameras with neither is greater than 12.
    – Itai
    Feb 21 '11 at 13:57
  • @Itai - I stand corrected, and definitely surprised. I'll fix my post to reflect that, replacing "most" with "many".
    – ysap
    Feb 21 '11 at 16:17
  • I think that search is incomplete. The Nikon D7000 has wireless infrared support, for example.

What Is a Fibromyalgia Flare?

Flare-ups can happen without warning.

We’re in the midst of a global pandemic. There is a Sahara dust storm that made its way all the way to the U.S., triggering all kinds of reactions. It seems like it is always cold, flu, strep, or allergy season here in Texas. Even before coronavirus, I religiously wiped down grocery carts and washed/sanitized my hands constantly when in public places. No matter the circumstance – weather changes, travel, exposure to other people and their germs, stress, staying in, eating out – all of those things can add up to a compromised immune system. So when I start feeling like I am coming down with something, I have to pause and think – Am I getting sick? Or is it just a Fibromyalgia Flare?

“Flare-ups can happen without warning and are mostly likely to occur if a person with fibromyalgia is stressed or under a lot of pressure.

A flare-up can last anywhere from a few days to weeks at a time.”

From How to Recognize a Fibro Flare

Fibromyalgia and Flares

Fibromyalgia is a chronic illness that causes widespread pain in the body and fatigue. It is considered a “syndrome” because it is a collection of symptoms, with no currently known cause, that come and go. Because it can wax and wane, people refer to the episodes as “flares.” And there are a variety of things that can trigger a flare:

  • Stress
  • Diet
  • Hormones
  • Lack of sleep
  • Diet
  • Weather
  • Physical activity (too little or too much)

Since being diagnosed with fibromyalgia almost 20 years ago, I have only been sick a handful of times. But I will get these flu or cold-like symptoms, which seem to be early-warning signs for me that a flare is coming:

  • Body aches, oftentimes in the neck
  • Run-down feeling
  • Headache
  • Sore throat

If no cold or flu materializes I realize it’s that “F” word again. Fibromyalgia. The debilitating “I just got run over by a bus” feeling of hurting all over accompanied extreme fatigue. The feeling can last for days.

There are a myriad of other symptoms associated with fibromyalgia that I often experience on a daily basis. Many of these symptoms I can deal with and go about my normal day. But a “flare” can knock you down, so thankfully I can go weeks or even months between flares.

Stress, lack of sleep, and working out too much have apparently caught up with me this week. I am currently on day 5 of this flare.

But I’m a Badass

I like to think I am a badass that can handle everything, but this seems to be my body’s way of reminding me I am human and need to slow down.

I figure if one of the biggest badass women around, Lady Gaga, can have fibromyalgia, then at least I am in good company.

“Chronic pain is no joke.” Lady Gaga

Handling a Flare

Everyone experiences fibromyalgia and flares differently. Some are sidelined in bed. Personally, I am not good at slowing down or resting, but years of experience has taught me when it is time to just stop so as not to prolong the episode, and practice some real self-care, along with medication as needed.

I extend myself some grace and ask for help. (Read more: The Challenge of Slowing Down.)

I boost my immune system with nutritious foods and extra Vitamin C. (Read more: Fight Fibromyalgia with Your Diet)

I take naps and epsom salt baths.

I cut out the more strenuous workouts and stick with a restorative yoga practice. (Read more: Why I Practice Yoga for Pain.)

And eventually the flare passes.

What are your favorite strategies for dealing with fibromyalgia? Do you have any early warning signs like me that a flare is about to happen? And is anyone else wondering how bad it would be if you had both a fibromyalgia flare AND COVID-19?

  1. One thing COVID has done for me is to give myself permission to use a mask for the rest of my life, meaning, when I feel like I’m getting sick but don’t know is allergies or F or sick, as long as I have no fever, and I wear a mask, no more fear if infecting others, if I am indeed sick.

    1. This is so true. While masks weren’t common in the US before COVID, people will hopefully use them going forward.

      On the first day I was feeling lousy I have to admit, the virus crossed my mind. I had been around a few people at work that had been tested and you just never know these days.

      1. I know. About once a week… it’s like…. this time? Because of course I have doctor in person needed appointments. Every time our aunt coughs I think…. is that normal? (She is 99) but she only goes to doctor. So….

  2. I’ve had some really bad flare ups that’s knocked me off me feet, family stress, Covid19, cancelled events. I find regular naps and self care to be a big healer, hot baths, moisturiser, heat, good food and being gentle with myself are key to getting over these periods. Avoiding stress is so difficult for me right now though so stress avoidance is my new aim.

    1. This sounds exactly like me lately. The added stressors are a beast to deal with at times so we need to be extra good to ourselves. I have really watched my eating and tried to practice gratitude and self care daily. Really missing getting regular massages with all of this going on, though.

fat suction cost comparison

Summary: There’s more to the price of liposuction than the fat suction cost. Much comes down to how much fat you want removed, what you want to do with that fat afterwards, and whether you require any other procedures. But there are so many variables when it comes to liposuction costs that we encourage patients to know what they’re getting for the price—beyond the simple dollar amount.

Getting a Good Deal on Liposuction? Are You Sure?

There’s not really a fat suction cost ratio that can be easily applied to liposuction if you’re wondering exactly how much the procedure will set you back. And it’s not uncommon for patients to wonder about exactly that. These days, figuring out the price of a plastic surgery procedure is half the battle—and a significant amount of patient research goes into trying to anticipate the cost of any given procedure.

Liposuction is not immune from that. Indeed, liposuction cost is something that many plastic surgeons are beginning to make more transparent, from Chicago liposuction surgeons to New York lipo specialists. The main reason for that is simple: in most cases, liposuction must be paid for out of pocket.

That’s true for almost all aesthetic plastic surgery procedures (with the exception of perhaps breast reduction or blepharoplasty). Unless there is a medical, health-related reason for you to get a procedure, your insurance likely won’t cover it. Which means those expenses come out of your pocket (though, maybe not all at once).

Why is it so Hard to Figure Out How Much Liposuction Will Cost?

One thing many patients notice is that it’s not very easy to figure out exactly how much your liposuction procedure will actually cost. There are an incredibly number of variables when it comes to this procedure, including the following:

  • The location of your liposuction: Some areas of the body will be most costly than others
  • The extent of your liposuction: In many cases, the more fat you want removed the more you’ll have to pay
  • Whether the patient uses general or local anesthesia
  • Whether the liposuction is paired with any other procedures (such as Brazilian Butt Lift or Fat Graft Breast Augmentation)
  • Local competition and market factors
  • The experience of the surgeon

If you look at Liposuction generally from a national perspective, your average lipo procedure will cost between $2000 and $3500. That does not include fees incurred at the hospital or through anesthesia, both of which could have an impact on your overall fat suction cost ratio.

How to Find Out More About Liposuction Costs

Most patients want to know a little something about how much your liposuction will actually cost before seeing a surgeon. They want to have an idea about whether they’ll be able to afford the procedure. Here’s a dirty little secret: surgeons want you to have that information too.

That’s why many surgeons will actually list prices on their websites. To be sure, these prices will almost never reflect any kind of price guarantee. Rather, the prices are there to give patients a kind of ballpark figure. The truth is that getting an accurate estimate of the costs involved with a liposuction will inevitably depend on an in-person consultation.

The specifics of your case are going to be incredibly important. Your surgeon will want to consider such specifics as:

  • Your overall general health—you have to be healthy enough for surgery, after all!
  • The area you wish to have targeted; certain areas of the body might be more complex
  • The extent of liposuction you wish to have performed
  • The necessity for any additional plastic surgery procedures, such as tummy tuck, to accompany your liposuction

Personal Factors

There are other factors, of course—such as whether you’re at or near your idea weight (or you are at least of a stable weight). Your choices about anesthesia will have a cost implication as well. Usually general anesthesia is much more costly than local anesthesia.

These are all issues your surgeon will be able to see and discuss during your initial conversation. That’s why that price on the website is usually only a starting place—a guide to help you compare.

Is Liposuction Worth the Price?

If you’re paying thousands of dollars for a plastic surgery procedure, you want to make sure it’s going to be worth it. The “worth it” metric is going to be incredibly subjective. Your satisfaction will largely depend on your expectations, your desired final outcome, and how closely your results compare.

However, there are a few things that patients should consider when thinking about getting liposuction. First and foremost, once the fat is removed, it’s gone forever. Fat doesn’t necessarily “grow back.” That means your results will be effectively permanent—but it also means that your results will be the most appealing if you’re able to maintain a relatively stable weight.

Second, some liposuction procedures will also require a skin tightening component as well. For example, patients that are getting significant suction around the belly area might also require a tummy tuck to eliminate excess skin. Once a significant amount of fat is removed, the skin does not always “bounce back” into place, so many surgeons elect to perform both procedures at once in order to generate the best possible results.

Payment Options

You can see how the simple fat suction cost of a liposuction procedure begins to spiral, by necessity including several other factors. Planning that all out can be challenging, especially when you’re paying for a procedure out of pocket. That’s why many plastic surgeons will offer several payment options.

To be certain, you should always check with your insurance company to figure out what will be covered and what won’t be covered—including after care. There may be scenarios where insurance comes into play and it’s good to know what your options are and what they might be in the future.

Financing Options

In other cases, many surgeons will offer financing options to patients who simply can’t pay all at once. Unfortunately, much as with the price, those financing options will vary from surgeon to surgeon. In most cases, there will be some kind of credit check and occasionally a deposit required.

You’ll also need to find out whether your surgeon does financing through his or her office or through a third party, such as CareCredit. Your options will vary depending on what kind of financing your surgeon offers. The best way to find out what those options might be is to visit your plastic surgeon for a consultation.

There’s no rule against discussing financing during your consultation, as for many patients it’s an important part of the decision making process.

More Than Just the Cost of Fat Suction

The thing to remember is that you’re paying for more than the simple suction of fat out of the body (and that suction of fat isn’t so simple, I might add). You’re paying for the experience and expertise of the surgeon. You’re paying for the hospital staff and the surgical facilities. You’re paying for all the training that goes into every surgeon’s and every nurse’s skills. You’re paying for top of the line equipment that’s been tested over and over again for safety.

In other words, you’re paying for high quality results. Certainly, paying more money will not guarantee yourself better results. However, there comes a point where cutting costs (for example, engaging in “plastic surgery tourism”) can put your health and your results in peril.

That’s why it’s important that patients do a little bit more research than simply comparing prices they find on surgeons’ websites. There is so much more to the cost of liposuction than the simple fat suction cost. The more you know about where those costs come from, the better you’ll be able to compare what you’re getting for the price—fat suction cost and all.

Android Phones Motorola News

5.5″ Moto G4 Play had been spotted on Zauba

Announced back in May this year, the Moto G4 Play was known to most by its slogan “More phone. More fun. Affordable as ever”. And if you’re a die hard fan of Motorola, then you would probably remember that the current Moto G4 Play sports a 5″ display.

Moto G4 Play Zauba

However, a new 5.5″ Moto G4 Play variant had apparently been imported into India for testing according to an updated Zauba listing. The device spotted in the listing also come with a similar XT1607 moniker as the current model.

While the device had already been announced for quite some time, there still isn’t any news on when this budget handset will be up for grabs even though its Moto G4 and G4 counterparts are already available for purchase in select markets.

Thanks Raj for the tip!

What is the difference between gender performance and gender performativity?

The performative quality of gender and sexuality is distinct from gendered and sexualized performance. If a performance is something controlled and possibly characterized by a degree of artifice, performativity is talking about something completely different.

What is the meaning of gender performativity?

Gender performativity is a term first used by the feminist philosopher Judith Butler in her 1990 book Gender Trouble. She argues that being born male or female does not determine behavior. … The idea of gender is an act, or performance. This act is the way a person walks, talks, dresses, and behaves.

What is performance and performativity?

Performance studies provides an opportunity to examine how people act and react in society. This is also made possible by a related area of study which is termed ‘performativity. … This authority is derived from the power which is possessed by those distributing the law but also in its repeated appearance in society.

What does Judith Butler say about gender performance?

JUDITH BUTLER questions the belief that certain gendered behaviors are natural, illustrating the ways that one’s learned performance of gendered behavior (what we commonly associate with femininity and masculinity) is an act of sorts, a performance, one that is imposed upon us by normative heterosexuality.

IT IS INTERESTING:  Question: What two bones vary significantly by gender?

What is meant by performativity?

Performativity is the power of language to effect change in the world: language does not simply describe the world but may instead (or also) function as a form of social action. … Most notably, Judith Butler developed the concept of performativity to describe how gender is constructed in the 1990s.

What is an example of gender performativity?

For example, instead of grouping all women (or even all younger women) in a community together a priori and assuming fundamental homogeneity in their linguistic behavior, a researcher would be more inclined to examine whether younger women participate in the same kinds of social networks as older women, or whether …

What is gender stereotyping?

Gender stereotyping refers to the practice of ascribing to an individual woman or man specific attributes, characteristics, or roles by reason only of her or his membership in the social group of women or men.

What is performativity theory?

Performativity is the concept that language can function as a form of social action and have the effect of change. … This view of performativity reverses the idea that a person’s identity is the source of their secondary actions (speech, gestures).

What is performative behavior?

Performative behavior is an action taken specifically with an audience in mind, to elicit a response or reaction. Digital Ethnography encounters this on a daily basis, as we study behavior on social & digital networks where performative behavior is rampant.

What is queer performance?

Queer performance can be a synonym for gay and lesbian art, and can also be understood more widely as staged or everyday acts that unsettle political, social, and/or aesthetic norms around gender and sexuality.

IT IS INTERESTING:  Is age and gender a dependent variable?

Can gender be undone?

Based on these theoretical models there are at least two ways in which gender can be undone. Firstly, it can be undone by not referring to or ignoring the gender binary (Hirschauer, 1994, 2001). Secondly, the gender binary itself can be destabilized and thereby come undone (Butler, 1990, 2004).

Jackfruit Loaded Fries

I had some loaded fries at the Vegan Camp Out which were out of this world so I decided to make mine own as a had a tin of jackfruit knocking about.

To start I drained the jackfruit (which you can buy from Asian supermarkets, make sure you get it in brine/water, not syrup!) and the ln broke it up into shred with my fingers. Some recipes say remove the cores but I leave them in.

Next I sprinkled over jerk seasoning to give it a good covering and mixed with my hands.

Then I covered in a barbeque sauce marinade, there were only two available at my local supermarket and one had honey in so I went with the other. Pour it on and give it a good covering.

I then left it to marinate overnight.

The next day I spread it in a baking tin and cooked it for 40 minutes stirring once, half way through.

I cooked my fries in the oven and served it with beans and violife cheese. I would had added on some vegan mayo mixed with sweetcorn but I couldn’t get hold of any mayo.

Pretty simple! What are you favourite toppings for fries? Let me know in the comments below.
