![]() Scalpels, then be prepared to be very stern to ensure the safety of all of your students. It sounds harsh, but if you're willing to give a bunch of 15 year olds I typically end up removing a student from the class the first day, this student must do the alternate assignment in the hall. Address these issues before you start the lab and make clear that horseplay will not be tolerated. When you're helping one student, another may be throwing frog guts at their neighbors. Classroom Management - this can be a stressful time for teachers because students can get very excited and forget classroom rules. Students should wash hands even if they wore gloves. Latex gloves are preferred, but not entirely necessary. If this happens, use eyewash and liberally flush eye with water. ![]() Safety Considerations - students must wear safety goggles, frogs will sometimes spray fluid when you cut them and this fluid can be painful if it enters the eyes. Younger students may need more help than older students. Remember that dissection is a learning process and part of the objectives should be to teach students to become independent learners. When students ask me questions, I require them to at least have a book open to the appropriate page to show me they tried to find the answer on their own. I have resources such as lab manuals and frog dissection guides laying around the lab. I also encourage my students to try to discover the answers to their questions before asking for help. Lab Resources - The frog dissection gallery is a good resource for teachers and students to review the parts of the frog. I also use virtual frogs before the dissection to give them a clue about the structures they will see inside. Usually the students decide who is going to read / write, and who is going to do the cutting. If I have extra frogs I might allow students to work alone (their choice). Group sizes - I usually put my students in groups of 2, possibly three if I have an odd number of students. ![]() The bullfrogs are messier and hard to cut, I have a "lottery" to pick a group to do the bullfrog and then the other students in the class can see what it looks like. Bullfrogs are much larger, but that doesn't mean they are easier to dissect. I have also gotten a single pack of bullfrogs to give one per class. It is not necessary for this lab to get the injected frogs. Obtain grass frogs from a biological supply company. Frog Dissection - Teacher's Guide Dissection Tips and Tricks

![]() And, yes, about a year later, I went back for more. Then I sat with an ice pack on my lips for a few minutes with a paper towel on top to catch the blood drops from the needle pricks. ![]() And thanks to the numbing cream, I felt zero pain. From start to finish, this portion took maybe 10 minutes. Then filler was injected into my lips in several areas, mostly in my top lip and a couple of places on my bottom. Then I sat with numbing cream on my mouth for several minutes, which was completely voluntary, as some folks opt to go without. She knew immediately I was a Volbella candidate, since it gives subtle, long-lasting results. I just wanted to look like I had an upper lip at all when I smiled. I didn’t want a full, “Oh, look-she got filler” situation. My first time was with Engleman, and it started with a consultation, where I went over what I was looking for and confessed to being a scaredy-cat. There could be mild bruising, swelling, lip asymmetry, infection (rarely), scarring, and even tissue loss.Īs for what lip injections cost, that can vary by the practitioner, but you can expect to pay around $700 to $2000. And potential side effects go for all of them. All of them (Restylane, Restylane Silk, Restylane Kysse, Juvéderm Volbella XC, Juvéderm Ultra XC, and Juvéderm Ultra Plus) can be used to make lips fuller and more symmetrical and address fine lines around the mouth. Explains Shafer, “If the filler was freshly injected, the dissolving sometimes happens immediately, but results can take up to 24 to 48 hours to see.” Occasionally, a second treatment is required for complete melting.īut back to the fillers themselves. To reverse filler, your doctor will inject hyaluronidase enzymes into the area of the desired melting. First, says, Shafer, since it naturally occurs in the body itself, it has “almost zero chance of rejection or reaction by the body, versus products such as collagen, which can have immune reactions.” Then there’s the f act that hyaluronic acid also has the bonus of being dissolvable if you don’t like it. ![]() It’s the go-to when it comes to filler for a couple of reasons. The key here is that they’re all hyaluronic acid– based. These typically last between six and 12 months, with Restylane Kysse and Juvéderm Volbella on the longer-lasting end. Then there’s the Juvéderm suite, which includes (from thinnest to thickest) Juvéderm Volbella XC, Juvéderm Ultra XC, and Juvéderm Ultra Plus. There’s the Restylane group, which includes Restylane, Restylane Silk, and the more natural-looking Restylane Kysse. And I’ll show you my before and after pictures, too, because come on, that’s probably what you’re really here for.įor the lips, there are a handful of fillers from two companies that doctors choose from. Then I’ll tell you what to expect at your appointment, the cost, and even if I’d do it again. (Spoiler: You’re going to hear the word hyaluronic acid a lot.) And since I had been invited in for a free lip treatment (a perk of my job) that featured the ultra-subtle filler Juvéderm Volbella, I figured why not try it? So I’m here to give you a full review of what it’s like.īut first, since I know I needed guidance before I took the plunge, I asked the two doctors who have injected me over these past 18 months- board-certified cosmetic dermatologist and Moh's surgeon Dendy Engelman and plastic surgeon and international master trainer for Allergan on Botox and Juvéderm David Shafer (both of the Shafer Clinic in NYC)- to help with a full primer on lip filler, including the different types. I, on the other hand, was shooting for just a hint of fullness and to actually have an upper lip when I smiled. You can go the keyhole lip filler route, or you can go for full-on pillow lips. There’s a lot to choose from when it comes to what you’re looking for in injections. ![]() In my line of work (beauty writing), you tend to know a lot of people who go for the syringe with gusto and end up looking gorgeous but not exactly natural. I was pretty chicken to try it, to be honest. About a year and a half ago, I decided to bravely but cautiously enter the world of lip augmentation to pump up my top lip slightly via lip filler injections. ![]() If you are looking for a monochrome result, you will have more control by exporting a color image and using a more complex approach. The black-and-white presets achieve their look by simply desaturating the image. By clicking on the presets and watching the position of the sliders in the panels to the right of the preview, you can see the result of adjusting the sliders in various ways. Once Express 3 creates the initial HDR image, the image opens in the adjustment workspace, which includes a set of presets to get you started. This is a most welcome speed boost-and it puts Express 3, along with the other Unified Color HDR programs, among the fastest in creating the initial merged image. Where HDR Express 2 was about average among HDR programs when creating the initial merged image, Express 3 takes only about a third as long. HDR Express 3 virtually eliminates the waiting. I often shoot seven or nine captures to create an HDR image, and must patiently wait while the HDR program aligns, de-ghosts and merges them. But they didn’t prepare me for the surprise that awaited me when I clicked the Merge button. Other than eliminating the histogram, these changes to merging source images are welcome. ![]() But I miss the ability to see where the dynamic range of each of my captures lies relative to the frame ends of the histogram, and the ability to exclude any captures that would add little information to the HDR because they are too over- or underexposed. Perhaps this is justified in an introductory-level HDR program in which users may not understand its usefulness. Unfortunately, these changes to the interface resulted in the elimination of the histogram of the source images that was available in version 2. ![]() Using this tool, I was able to choose a key frame without a bird flying through it, which saved me from having to spend time cloning out its ghosts in the merged HDR. Express 3 eliminates this issue by allowing you to choose a key frame and run a quick (and small) preview of the merged result. The problem with using a key frame is that often, you don’t know if you’ve chosen the correct capture until the program has merged the images together. Any change in position of these objects in other captures is ignored when creating the initial HDR image.Įven with the local contrast (Detail slider) nearly set to maximum, Express 3 creates an image with far less of a grunge look than that possible with other HDR programs. This method involves choosing a “key frame,” or one of the captures that has the moving objects in the position you want them. Every HDR program uses some technique to exorcise ghost images, but the most successful method is found in higher-end HDR programs, and now incorporated in HDR Express 3. A new option for DNG images has been added to those for RAW, TIFF and JPEG files.ĭuring a series of HDR captures, objects moving in the frame from capture to capture cause “ghost” images if the software does nothing to eliminate them. The initial screen to merge source images now has radio buttons to filter images in a folder, rather than a drop-down menu. HDR Express 3 adds to the functionality of the previous version by incorporating some of the features of its higher-end programs, but without making it more difficult to learn or use. With the release of version 3, Unified Color has made HDR Express even more accessible and user-friendly. Unified Color produces two of these sophisticated programs-HDR Expose and 32 Float-as well as the perfect introductory-level HDR program, HDR Express. There are a number of sophisticated HDR post-processing programs on the market, but few for photographers who want a taste of the realistic-as well as the other-worldly-results possible with HDR. But for newcomers, the learning curve can be steep-not so much on the capture side, but rather in post-processing. High dynamic range (HDR) imaging has found a place in the toolbox of professional and enthusiast photographers. ![]() ![]() However, you can make your scarf longer or shorter depending on your preference.

Unfortunate crashes in both races saw Kay de Wolf narrowly miss out on another top-10 finish with the Dutchman claiming 11th overall after two challenging motos. Regrouping for race two, and following another great start, Beaton charged hard to place third in the moto, crossing the finish line just seven seconds behind the eventual race winner, Rene Hofer. Frustratingly, a crash that was outside of his control early in moto one contributed to a disappointing 16th-place finish. In the MX2 class, Jed Beaton is another Rockstar Energy Husqvarna rider that has delivered solid round-by-round results in recent weeks. With a sizable gap to the top six, Thomas maintained his impressive pace to secure seventh in the moto for sixth overall and is now tied for ninth in the series standings. But after using many of the same lines that he used to make passes in race one, he moved into seventh place on lap eight. Shortly after the start of race two, the Dane once again found himself just outside the top 10. Despite the Pietramurata track offering limited passing opportunities, the FC 450 racer was able to work his way forwards throughout the moto and following an impressive charge through the field he secured an eighth-place finish. In the opening moto, Kjer Olsen was fortunate to stay upright after riding over a fallen rider’s machine in turn one and completed the opening lap down in 15th place. Since his impressive performances just one month ago at the FIM Motocross of Nations, Thomas Kjer Olsen has continually delivered strong overall finishes in the MXGP World Championship, delivering his best yet at round 15 of the 2021 MXGP series. In the MX2 class, crashes for both Jed Beaton and Kay de Wolf proved costly, with Beaton eventually faring best to secure seventh overall while de Wolf placed 11th.

When "Bury a Friend" was released, Finneas O'Connell remembers telling his sister, "I think we just get to do whatever we want now." "Therefore I Am" was released as a single on November 12, 2020. With "Limbo" as a whole, but especially with "Pressure in My Palms," Aminé illustrates a sort of garnished, high-spirited style that's not just fun, but vitalizing. Sharing a song with gritty British rapper Slowthai and "Norf Norf" icon Vince Staples certainly raised the stakes, but all three artists deliver bars that burst with energy, attitude, and personality. He flits between pop culture references - Britney Spears shaving her head, Ashton Kutcher's MTV show "Punk'd," Steve Harvey's infamous Miss Universe mix-up, Winona Ryder's shoplifting scandal - and, as Pitchfork's Sheldon Pearce notes, he relishes the absurdity of each one. But Aminé's cheekiness and quick wit is very much still present, strongly recalling "Late Registration"-era Kanye West. Indeed, the production allows for a touch of gravity. "Pressure in My Palms" is heavier and grungier than you may expect from ever-grinning, banana-loving Portland rapper Aminé. "Pressure in My Palms" is the eighth track on "Limbo," released on August 7, 2020. Here's hoping Swift never quits digging up the grave another time. It's not an example of elaborate, textured lyricism, but the song's power resides in those one-liners that feel so simple and so true: tender moments of insecurity like, "It's another day waking up alone," and "But we were something, don't you think so?" ![]() Of course, Swift is no longer a teenager writing songs in her parents' house - and you probably wouldn't expect to see yourself in the musings of a 30-year-old multi-millionaire.īut as it turns out, Swift has spent quarantine pouring through old journals, reminiscing about lost loves, and pining for simpler times just like the rest of us.Īs somebody who constantly worries that I feel things more intensely than an average person, who berates myself for dwelling on every rupture and mistake, "The 1" speaks to the deepest caverns of my soul. In terms of relatability, Taylor Swift has set a very high bar for herself she built her career upon songs about unrequited crushes, high school jealousy, and Shakespearean daydreams. ![]() "The 1" is the first track on "Folklore," released on July 24, 2020. The verses simmer with the depressive chill of Billie Eilish, while the hook erupts with arena-sized guitar riffs. Latham's captivating vocal performance, paired with the song's erratic production, saves "Buzzkill" from being a huge bummer. "Help! When I wake up it's bad as f- / Help me! No, you don't give a damn / So I point a gun at your buzz / Bang bang!" "I don't wanna be a buzzkill but I'm sad as f-," she declares, almost gleefully, in the year's most rousing bridge. And she very explicitly doesn't crave a different kind of buzz. She's exhausted by social media, pissed about politics, but too disillusioned to do anything about it. It manages to capture modern fears and teenage angst without feeling recycled or corny, like "Royals" with a Gen-Z spin.īaby Queen, aka Londoner Bella Latham, isn't triumphantly counting her dollars on the train to the party she never wanted to go in the first place. "Buzzkill" is one of those rare, lightning-in-a-bottle generational anthems. "Buzzkill" was released as a single on July 8, 2020. The song's only flaw? It can't be true that nobody knows any better anyway, given that O'Connell has emerged as a thoughtful, necessary voice amidst the noise. This is especially true given the song's clever, veiled references to modernity, like Uber ("Somebody's driving you home, but they don't know who you are"), FOMO ("I need to be where you are, for no reason at all"), and doom-scrolling ("Somebody's wasting my time / F- your Confederate flag, you've got no reason to brag"). With its big, open chords and scream-along hook, "Can't Wait to Be Dead" absolutely has the juice to be a hit today. ![]() But the ultimate charm of rock-pop is that it rarely feels unstylish.
