Emerging technologies in face and body contouring/ [edited by] Spero J. Theodorou, Christopher T. Chia, Erez Dayan.
Includes bibliographical references and index."Emerging Technologies in Face and Body Contouring by internationally acclaimed experts Spero Theodorou, Christopher Chia, Erez Dayan and esteemed contributors, details emerging state-of-the-art technologies in minimally-invasive body contouring. This resource fills a void in the literature, providing plastic, aesthetic, and dermatologic surgeons with clinical insights on the latest proven techniques in nonsurgical fat reduction and skin tightening. The book begins with chapters on 3D imaging for emerging body contouring technologies, clinically applicable concepts of fat metabolism, and discussion of laser and ultrasound. Procedural chapters cover a diverse array of cutting-edge noninvasive body contouring and VASER techniques, including water-assisted and power-assisted liposuction. Chapters dedicated to the face and neck detail scarless face lifting, injection lipolysis, and radiofrequency skin tightening. Body-specific chapters focus on the neck, arms, abdomen, flanks and hips, gluteal region, thighs and calves, ankles and knees"--Three-dimensional Imaging for Emerging Technologies in Body Contouring / Isabel Robinson and Pierre Saadeh -- Clinically Applicable Concepts of Fat Metabolism / Rachel L.

Spring awakening (2015) program
Bismarck State College Theatre presents Spring Awakening. Books & lyrics by Steven Sater; music by Duncan Sheik; based on teh play by Frank Wedekind; directed by Spider Duncan Christopher. March 11-14 @ 7:30; March 15 @ 2:30; Sidney J. Lee Auditorium. Summary: "Spring Awakening is based on a controversial 1891 play by German playwright Frank Wedekind, which was banned for a time in Germany because of its frank portrayal of abortion, homosexuality, rape, child abuse and suicide. The rock musical caused a sensation when it premiered on Broadway in 2006. Set in late 19th-century Germany, it tells the story of teenagers discovering the inner and outer tumult of sexuality. Alternative and folk-infused rock music capture and reflect the emotional essence of the timeless experience of coming of age.
