Stefany is there any spikes on it or is it completely smooth.
How do you actually use it. Apply the creams and then roll over it or the other way.
I know somebody in Germany now who could get it for me.
Anyway good find.

Hey anyone - sprechk deutch???
Sounds very interesting though
Posted 19 February 2003 - 05:26 PM
I just clicked on the first link and it worked for me. Not sure what happened. On the second website, you have to click on English speaking customers. That is what I did when I ordered. Great product.
Posted 19 February 2003 - 07:53 PM
Sounds like a lot of sense to me.
More penetration, more result.
Since you have used it and are familiar with it's use for pitted scarring I would like your opinion on which model of roller you think would be best for raised scarring (on shoulders).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have e-mailed Horst Liebl about keloids. I am not sure which dermaroller, if any, helps with keloids. This device has been designed for acne scars, the pitted kind, because there doesn't seem to be anything else that really has worked. I will get back to you.
As far as the regular dermaroller for helping with scars, it is definitely helping me. My renova is being infiltrated deeper into my dermis because the side effects which I overcame over 1 year ago, have come back again. The Renova with the dermaroller is making my skin peel more, and I notice more plumping of the skin. Just my imagination? I don't think so. My next goal is to find a doctor that will purchase his special needling device for acne scars and treat my whole face. I have tried everything else, and quite frankly, they don't work.
Posted 20 February 2003 - 06:06 PM
looks like the best dermaroller would be the MS-4. It has specially ice-hardened needles so that they don't bend after puncturing through the hard, fibrous collagen. Unfortunately, it can only be purchased through a physician though.
Posted 20 February 2003 - 06:26 PM
I appreciate all your help.
Posted 21 February 2003 - 06:04 AM
"The needles will become blunt after several months of use. We recommend to use a new roller after 3-4 months." That's $150 or more a year
"Do not use the roller if the skin is already damaged by injury or sunburn."
Isn't an indented acne scar the sign of skin injury or are they talking about other scars caused by surgery etc. My scar still hurts and it looks injured.
The device is to be applied to areas of normal, undamaged skin for purposes of hair growth.
What are other peoples impressions?
And more importantly
What topicals would be the best to break down damged collagen fibres and promote the growth of new ones which will level out indentations.
Posted 21 February 2003 - 07:06 AM
As far as your scar still feeling damaged, if it is fully healed, I am sure it would be OK.
Horst Liebl is researching acne scarring as we speak and he has a friend from India who says that "Centella" is the best topical for acne scarring.
Keep you posted.

I read the instructions - it says to use everyday and go over your skin 3 times. Then after that apply whatever topicals you normally use.
After around 3 months, you need to get a new one because the needles wear out.
This is not quite needling, it doesn't break the skin - it just stimulates collagen growth slowly and helps topicals penetrate the skin better.

Interpretive Handbook
84326 :
Opiate Confirmation, Meconium
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
Opiates are naturally occurring alkaloids that are derived from the opium poppy and demonstrate analgesic effects. Opioids are derived from natural and semisynthetic alkaloids of opium or synthetic compounds(1):
-Codeine is a naturally occurring opioid agonist often incorporated into formulations along with acetaminophen or aspirin to increase its analgesic effect.(2) Codeine is metabolized to morphine and subsequently undergoes glucuronidation and sulfation.
-Morphine is an opioid receptor agonist that is used for major pain analgesia.(2) It has been shown to distribute widely into many fetal tissues,(4) and has been detected in meconium.
-Hydrocodone is a semisynthetic analgesic derived from codeine. Hydrocodone is 6 times more potent than codeine and is prescribed for treatment of moderate-to-moderately severe pain.(2) Hydrocodone undergoes O-demethylation in vivo, forming hydromorphone.
-Hydromorphone, a semisynthetic derivative of morphine, is an opioid analgesic. It is 7 to 10 times more potent than morphine, its addiction liability is similar to morphine.(2)
-Oxycodone, a semisynthetic narcotic derived from thebaine. It is metabolized by O-demethylation, forming oxymorphone.(2)
-Oxymorphone is a semisynthetic opioid derivative of thebaine and is indicated for moderate-to-severe pain.(2)
-Heroin, a semisynthetic derivative of morphine, is rapidly deacetylated in vivo to the active metabolite 6-monoacetlymorphine (6-MAM), which is further hydrolyzed to morphine.(2)
Opiates have been shown to readily cross the placenta and distribute widely into many fetal tissues. Opiate use by the mother during pregnancy increases the risk of prematurity and small size for gestational age. Furthermore, heroin-exposed infants exhibit an early onset of withdrawal symptoms compared to methadone-exposed infants. These infants demonstrate a variety of symptoms including irritability, hypertonia, wakefulness, diarrhea, yawning, sneezing, increased hiccups, jitteriness, excessive sucking, and seizures. Long-term intrauterine drug exposure may lead to abnormal neurocognitive and behavioral development as well as an increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome.
The disposition of opiates and opioids in meconium, the first fecal material passed by the neonate, is not well understood. The proposed mechanism is that the fetus excretes drug into bile and amniotic fluid. Drug accumulates in meconium either by direct deposition from bile or through swallowing of amniotic fluid. The first evidence of meconium in the fetal intestine appears at approximately the 10th to 12th week of gestation, and slowly moves into the colon by the 16th week of gestation. Therefore, the presence of drugs in meconium has been proposed to be indicative of in utero drug exposure during the final 4 to 5 months of pregnancy, a longer historical measure than is possible by urinalysis.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Detection of maternal prenatal opiate/opioid use up to 5 months before birth
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
The presence of any of the following opiates (codeine, morphine, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, oxycodone, oxymorphone) at > or =50 ng/g or 6-monoacetlymorphine at > or =10 ng/g indicates the newborn was exposed to opiates/opioids during gestation.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Since the evidence of illicit drug use during pregnancy can be cause for separating the baby from the mother, a kit is available that includes all the materials necessary to complete chain-of-custody to ensure that the test results are appropriate for legal proceedings.
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
Positives are reported with a quantitative LC-MS/MS result.
Cutoff concentrations
Codeine by LC-MS/MS: >50 ng/g
Hydrocodone by LC-MS/MS: >50 ng/g
Hydromorphone by LC-MS/MS: >50 ng/g
Morphine by LC-MS/MS: >50 ng/g
Oxycodone by LC-MS/MS: >50 ng/g

Round 14 - Singapore 21-23 September 2012
Venue: Marina Bay
Circuit Length: 5.073 Km
Laps: 61
Lap Record: 1:45.599 = 172.740 km/h - K. Raikkonen (Ferrari) 2008
2012 Results
Pole Position: Lewis Hamilton (McLaren Mercedes), 1:46.362 = 171.704 km/h
1st: Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull Renault), 2hr 00m 26.144s
2nd: Jenson Button (McLaren Mercedes), 8.959s behind
3rd: Fernando Alonso (Ferrari), 15.227s behind
Fastest Lap: Nico Hülkenberg (Sahara Force India), 1:51.033 = 164.480 km/h on lap 52
Sebastian Vettel snatched his second successive Singapore victory for Red Bull Renault – and now the 25-year-old German is on the scent of an even greater prize. The 25 points for his second race win of 2012 propelled Vettel past Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Raikkonen into second place in the Drivers' World Championship. Still leading is Fernando Alonso, whose Ferrari finished third in Singapore. Both men are striving for their third titles, Alonso holding the upper hand by 29 points with six races to go.
Singapore has always pushed F1's two-hour limit very hard and the fifth night race at Marina Bay finally got there. The race was reduced from 61 to 59 laps following two Safety Car interventions – maintaining this race's 100% record in that regard. The first came when Narain Karthikeyan's HRT hit the wall at Turn 18; the second was for a potentially far more serious incident when Michael Schumacher's Mercedes ploughed into the back of Jean Eric Vergne's Toro Rosso at Turn 14.
"It was obviously a very unfortunate ending to my race this evening when I ran into the car of Vergne who accepted my apology straight afterwards," said Schumacher, who contributed to a similar incident with Sergio Perez in the 2011 Singapore race. "I am not totally sure why it happened like this; I was braking but the deceleration was not as strong as it usually would be, and I could not avoid running into the car in front of me." The stewards took a dim view and have imposed a 10-place grid penalty on Schumacher for the next race at Suzuka.
"The circuit is a killer," observed Vettel. "There's so many bumps, there's no space for mistakes and the race just seems to go on forever." Vettel dedicated his 23rd career victory to Professor Sid Watkins, the much-loved and respected surgeon whose tireless work for F1 safety benefited so many drivers and who passed away two weeks ago. "I think he is one of the biggest reasons we can go out on a circuit like this and enjoy ourselves and be reasonably safe," added Vettel, who was not born when 'The Prof' embarked on his safety crusade in the late 70s.
Alonso was delighted with his damage limitation in a car he described as "not very competitive" all weekend. "Starting in fifth was OK," he said, "then the start was so-so. The safety car arrived in the worst moment for us because we have stopped and changed tyres five laps before so we didn't have the pit stop for free. So with all these difficulties arriving third is for sure a fantastic result in terms of points." It was the fourth time in five years that Alonso had stood on the Singapore podium.
Between Vettel and Alonso on that podium was Jenson Button in the only surviving McLaren Mercedes. That's because pole-winner and early leader Lewis Hamilton was forced into retirement when all he could find was a box of neutrals on lap 23. "It's heart-breaking not to have finished the race today," said Hamilton. "We definitely had the pace to win this weekend. But I'll never give up. There are six more races, and I need to go and win all six. I'll fight until the end." Could it be the kind of heartbreak that helps Hamilton decide his destination for 2013?
Paul di Resta took a career-best fourth place for Sahara Force India, whose other driver Nico Hülkenberg set the fastest lap of the race but finished out of the points in 14th. "Fourth place is a great team result and my best day in Formula One so far," said Di Resta, tipped as one of the candidates to replace Schumacher should Michael call it quits a second time. "This result is just what we needed for our fight in the championship and I want to say a massive 'thank you' to the boys in the garage who put in a huge effort, as always."
Behind the Scot was Nico Rosberg in the other Mercedes, while Kimi Raikkonen scored his first Singapore points in the Lotus in sixth place. That was one better than teammate Romain Grosjean, driving a low-key race on his return from Monza suspension. Behind Grosjean came Felipe Massa, whose determination to cling on to his Ferrari seat was underlined by the steel he showed in passing fellow-Brazilian Bruno Senna's Williams Renault as they crossed Anderson Bridge on lap 43.
Ninth place not only earned Dan Ricciardo two points for the third time this season, it also won him bragging rights in Australia. The man behind his Toro Rosso was Mark Webber, who endured a frustrating night in the second Red Bull and saw his strategy compromised by the two Safety Cars. "I am really happy with ninth place and I enjoyed having a fight with Mark towards the end, even if I could not hold off Massa just before that," said a delighted Ricciardo. "In the closing stages, I didn't look in the mirrors too much, but I just focussed on maintaining my lap times all the way to the flag." Webber's misery was compounded when he was given a drive-through penalty after the race for leaving the track and gaining an advantage, converted into a 20-second time penalty that dropped him to 11th and out of the points.
It was another disappointing day for Williams: front row starter Pastor Maldonado kept Alonso behind him throughout the first half of the race but suffered when he switched to Pirelli's Supersoft tyres and came in for a second stop just four laps later. The Venezuelan eventually retired with hydraulic failure after 36 laps. Teammate Bruno Senna, who had a ragged time in practice and qualifying, also retired with a loss of power – just 20 seconds before the two-hour limit was reached – but was still 18th of the 19 classified finishers.

Which relevant/important events currently unfolding around the world are being ignored by the media? Why are they relevant?
Open a newspaper or watch a newscast, and along with a couple of important news (say, Egypt and Tunisia) and a couple of surprising and insightful stories, you will read or hear a lot of irrelevant stuff. Yet world-changing and life-altering events are happening all the time around the world - just not where the media are focusing their lenses (I'm not suggesting active censorship here - just a structural problem in the way "news" is identified, selected and distributed). What are the events currently unfolding, anywhere in the world, of any kind, that are 1) underreported 2) regionally or globally truly relevant 3) may have a broad impact and 4) people should know about?

Feb 15 2011: We are in Singapore a island-state-country smaller than NYC.
- +6
We're living in one of the most advanced and wealthy countries, yet Singapore is a odd drop in an immense SEA South East Asian countries of Indonesia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Myanmar/Burma, Nepal, Philippines, Bhutan.
Being in Singapore is almost as if you took the city of Manhattan and relocated it in the middle of Africa.
Most people would be surprised:
+ There are 650 million people this SEA = more than the whole population of South America!
+ They are many impoverished, least educated, sick, hungry in SEA, yet not very featured in mainstream media, perhaps because India and Africa loom so large in physical size on our world map.
We can look out of our windows of our apartments and see neighboring Indonesia.
+ Indonesia is about the size of a handful of US States = has nearly the same population of US
Imagine if the entire US population moved to live in just 5 US states and then everyone becomes one of the poorest people in the world.
Much food for thought. Welcome everyone's ideas on how to hear the voices, stories and ideas of these 650 million of our fellow human beings...

Mar 1 2011: The increasing disparity in income between the rich and poor in the United States is being ignored. It seems to me that the gap between rich and poor is one of the primary reasons for revolutions. I'm wondering if the growing income gap means that a revolution will happen in the US, if there is no improvement in restoring a strong middle class to the country and elevating the income levels of the poorest 20% or so.Feb 20 2011: One of the issues that's really struck me over the years is the amount of people who continue to die from easily-solved water-related issues (see washinitiative.org/ for more on that). We can fly to the moon, yet 1 billion people -- that's 1 out of every 6 people on earth -- still don't have access to safe drinking water. It's incredible, and solvable. Yet we hear so little about it.

Another critical yet under-reported story is how western consumption drives human rights abuses in poorer countries. We all know about blood diamonds (thanks to Leonardo di Caprio), but less heralded are the stories of major international oil companies like Exxon and Shell enabling militaries and paramilitaries who have destroyed villages in Indonesia and Nigeria. And the hundreds of communities across India rallying against Coca-Cola, whose bottling plants are drying up the groundwater that feeds their wells and fields. And the deadliest war since World War II -- the conflict in the Congo known as "Africa's World War" -- is fueled in large part by lucrative sales of coltan, the mineral needed to produce cell phones, laptops, and other electronics. And don't even get me started on how western farm subsidies destroy markets in Africa, keeping farmers there poorer than they otherwise would be!
I guess the bottom line story is this: we are all connected now -- how can we ensure it's for better and not for worse?Mar 2 2011: How about the criminality behind the Federal Reserve ? It and its investors are behind much of the war, strife and political unrest that is rampant around the world.Feb 26 2011: In my country (Argentina), and probably in many other, some of the world's leading seed production companies are hiring underpaid rural workers in near to slavery conditions. They are paid wages that in many cases don't exceed $500 a month for working up to 12 or 14 hours a day, 7 days a week, in a country with a raging inflation. They are deducted the price of anything they need, from food and water to even work tools, and they don't have access to other ways of getting those materials, since they are confined inside this "estancias" or ranches, with different kinds of threats if they dare leve before the season is over.
They don't hace access to showers, they don't have electricity, hygiene tools, medical treatments, or safety mesures whatsoever.
What's more shocking is that this is a common thing among this kind of companies. Pretty much all companies dedicated to this kind of seed production are involved in the same fraud, includins some of the world leadres in this industry like Nidera SA; Southern Seed Production SA; and Status Ager SA.
Thousands of workers in this conditions have been found, and yet almost none of the major local newspapers is reflecting the case. Of course, it's worth mentioning that the two major media holdings have echonomical interests in the form of shares in some of these companies.Mar 4 2011: .
The rapid emergence of Africa as an economic powerhouse is definitely an underreported story.
Sub-Saharan Africa's middle class is now bigger than that of much hyped economic wonder India. And it already has more purchasing power. Africa's stock exchanges are the world's best performing, and they are so consistently, not just temporarily or by some trend in commodities.
The rise of Africa will stun everybody -- especially because it is so underreported.
And the (Western) media cannot accept that this rise comes from Africa itself. In a persistently colonial logic, they continue to attribute this rise (if reported at all), to some "outside" force: be it China which is investing, or the diaspora which is coming back, or some anonymous market force coming from the West. All these external forces pale compared to Africa's own dynamism and its growth spurred by its own rising class of investors and its hyper-globalised middle-class.
Because of our own prejudice against Africa (and our wish to "help these poor people" via our aid industry), we will all be surprised and stunned, pretty soon.
Jing Cao
Mar 8 2011: Hey Laurens, I couldn't agree with you more. I was already quite surprised and stunned by Africa during my short stay there last year, and yes I have the miserably poor media coverage to thank.

First of all, I've met some of the most creative and resourceful entrepreneurs and engineer who have developed effective solutions and products, with virtually very little cost. Sometimes it's even painful to admit something that cheap actually does work.
Second I'm amazed by the prevalence of mobile phones, and how many things they're capable to do, all using the simplest models. SMS, facebook, even mobile banking is already incorporated into people's daily lives for quite some while.
Of course the emergence of Africa is by nature complicated. I certainly don't buy into those prototype stories anymore. We need to hear more voices about the exciting developments come from within.
Mar 9 2011: Hi Jing Cao, I agree: we need to get rid of prototype stories.
I exaggerated in my view on Africa, just to give an anti-dote to the eternal "Africa = misery" line of reporting.
But as you probably know all too well: Africa is dynamic because it blends very modern things rapidly with traditional structures.
So lots of problems do persist, but on many other fronts they are really becoming very modern.
The example of the mobile phone is strong: here in Europe we have none of the things they do in Africa with a simple phone. If only the internet-connections could catch up, that revolution would expand even faster.Mar 10 2011: Totally agree. Huge emerging story, which I've seen up close recently. See Feb. 28 report by American Enterprise Institute demographer. It predicts that the largest share of the increase in the world labor pool next 20 years will be in Africa. In the last 20 years, the big contributors were India and China. Political and social implications of this prediction are substantial. See also my contribution above on how we can bring slow-motion stories like this to light.
Alisa Miller
Feb 20 2011: Pakistan floods and their continued aftermath. Coverage of global warming. Coverage of role/rights of women and girls around the world and the connection to success in societies. Coverage of religion and connection to culture. Coverage of state of education in America and what can be done. Coverage of global health and development. Coverage of science.

Feb 27 2011: I for one have known for this story for quite some time. And not just me. While American media for the most part associates China with debt and communism, our (Bulgarian) media associates China with industrial smoke and population growth.
Yet even I am guilty of ignoring this, but I can tell you why - I see no solution for it... I can't see a working model from another country that could be duplicated in China, mostly because nowadays most manufacturing is in China and when it isn't, it's the same technologies. What was once polluting slightly the air in every country is now massively doing the same in China.
If someone could find a working model that China should embrace - a goal - then it's only a matter of time before there's a critical mass behind the solution large enough to persuade the Chinese government to enforce it.
Unfortunatly, I'm also not an engineer of any kind, so I can't come up with a solution either. I do wish someone could come up with one though. Not only for the better of China, but inherently, for the better of all of us.

Mar 10 2011: This is a dichotomy for the west, we here are constantly pressing to get things cheap, at the same time arguing for better human rights and environmental control, China want the trade to boost their economy and are therefore reluctant to agree to human rights and environmental controls as this would of course drive up their costs as it has in the west.
The big problem with this, that many are aware of, is that the real solution is to move away from financially based society, if this is to happen a radical global change has to happen and no politician or government is prepared to take the risk of suggesting this, and won't until there is a tide change in overall public perceptions.
We need global social commitment, unfortuinately unlikely in the short term but the opening up of communications through internet activity is showing some movement, Egypt & Libya.
This is too big for the general media to sell to the general public so is relegated to more limited forums, like TED.Mar 7 2011: Thank you all for your inputs. Brilliant -- and totally scary to see so many important stories underreported. Let's try to summarize some (this is a partial list, not meant to create a ranking, it is just a "cheat sheet" for me to keep track of some of these ideas as I work on curating upcoming TED events):
- The Chinese deal to build a canal in Colombia (to "compete" with Panama) (Debra)
- SMS (texting) in developing markets as a social network (Bill)
- The emergence of Africa as an economic powerhouse, and of Africa's middle class (Laurens)
- Melting of polar ice caps (Robin, Steve, Jon)
- The increasing disparity in income between the rich and poor in the US, and Europe (Rhona, Tamar)
- Somaliland and other stable, but little-talked-about countries (Martha)
- The "quiet tsunami" of erosion (Andrian)
- The wrecking of the oceans an the toxicity of extraction (Birdia)
- The persisting scandal/tragedy of slavery (Matias)
- The many people who continue to die from easily-solved water-related issues (Jeffrey)
@Alisa: on the state of education in America, here a small contribution that we just published:
Plus: the need to acknowledge the good news, too (I totally agree, John: let me point out that we did a full conference on that last July, TEDGlobal 2010, which went under the theme "And Now the Good News")
Plus: the question, when confronted with global, vast, complex problems: "What can I, individual, do?"
Plus: where can we FIND some of these stories?
(Jeffrey suggests the Center on Crisis Reporting http://pulitzercenter.org/ - Let me point also to Global Voices http://globalvoicesonline.org/ )
Any other suggestion for alternative, credible sources?
Thank you,
Steve Sobel
Mar 2 2011: I found myself asking this question this morning when all the news coverage was focused on Charlie Sheen rather than the American deficit crisis, revolution in the Middle East and issues of incredible consequence breaking around the globe. One issue being ignored that had tremendous consequences to everyone on earth is the ignored story about the melting of the polar ice caps. This is something that must be dealt with but something that is getting ignored in a culture that is so focused on celebrity and issues that are consequential.Mar 1 2011: I definitely agree with Rhona. Though the US plays a valuable role in conflicts beyond its borders, the growing gap between the rich and the poor inside America is a huge problem that largely gets ignored. The gap is so large that it is almost comparable to that of a third world country, raising immediate concern. Emily Pilloton's TED talk on Project H illuminated this issue for me, and I strongly recommend that everybody watch it.Feb 16 2011: I signed a disclaimer the other week so that I could swim in the Serpentine (Hyde Park, London Outdoor lake), It basically warned me of the health risks of swimming in not so clean water. I thought about the UNAM study that showed Mexico City is losing it's sense of smell (link) and wondered why I am signing a disclaimer to jump into kinda dirty water, when I don't need to sign one to travel into very dirty air.

Link: vimeo.com/1162596?pg=embed&sec=1162596Feb 15 2011: I think events like the Groupon debacle highlight a need for a paradigm shift in our approach to culturally offensive actions. We need to look to companies that localize properly and how they do that with sensitivity and positive impact.
Out of 50 articles and 100s of tweets and updates on the impact of the commercial none, that I saw, spoke to the impact on the lives of those who were thought to be slighted. Instead, pundits addressed the economic impact to Groupon should they hope to succeed in the China market.
No one asked the tougher questions of the groups involved directly or obliquely:
--How did in-country native Tibetans feel about the lack of study on the part of Groupon when a coupon was offered for Fish Curry when fish is never eaten in that country (SAR/Autonomous Region) when as it is tied to religious burial rites water burial? ...
--How did poor native Tibetans )some still recovering from a devastating earthquake and later mudslide) feel when they were identified as recipients of money that actually went to dissidents living exile?
--How was the "Tibetan" charity designated impacted? Did donations drop?
--What were the ramifications for expats living and working in China and Tibet who are often already thought of as culturally naive?
--Are there charities that have navigated these waters and changed lives through CSR?
--Do PC donations (Tibet as a cause and not an emergency aid intervention) affect quality of life? Are ideas more worthy of our attention than dying children & homeless families? It is rhetorical
--How did political perceptions & media involvement help or hinder the people in those regions?
--How do we address the latter without invoking the wrath of governments or those involved in causes who have huge social capital without collateral damage, without causing widespread censorship of important future interventions?
Zuckerman (for example) has chosen a confrontational path. Is there a middle way? Someone who can speak to this?Feb 15 2011: The mysteries that are yet to be revealed in the final phase of Srilanka war. The recommendations from the panel set by UN are still working on it.Mar 9 2011: Edge had a special issue about this topic 11 years ago, maybe some of them are still relevant: http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/story/contributions.htmlMar 9 2011: During a week when five US Soldiers lost their lives in battle, nothing was mentioned, but plenty of coverage was given to a drug addicted, whore mongering celebrity. Our military is out fighting a war, putting their lives and limbs on the line to protect freedom (and I don't want to debate about whether the war is right or not, it doesn't matter, they are selfless heroes for going where their country has sent them) and they don't even get a passing honor. Those who are willing to give their all to protect and defend their country are our true heroes, not the sports and movie stars. Our media is failing miserably by not providing information which allows our citizens to be aware, appreciative and supportive of their efforts. The end result is that our veterans return with very little support as our citizens are completely ignorant of them, and the every day struggle for survival continues as they deal with PTSD and it's resulting depression, divorce, drug addiction, alcoholism and even suicide. It is as if they have been left alone on the battlefield, with no intention to ever really bring them home!
Debra Smith
Mar 9 2011: I recently read that more soldiers died last year by suicide than died in battle. If this is true there is another war going on the needs to be stopped- the absolutely devastation that war causes in the warriors.

Mar 4 2011: The most under reported story of global magnitude in history?
- +1
There are two global social networks forming. The first everyone knows.... Facebook. The second is much larger. SMS usage in developing markets is now the largest social community in the world and it is growing faster than Facebook. As opposed to enabling games and dating, this new social network is enabling new applications in: commerce, health care, education, crisis management and even middle eastern revolutions!
I believe this is the most transformative event in human history. Where is the media on this event? Please get on it. Report it, police it and hold those who may abuse it to account. Most importantly tell the stories of those heroes who would make this new community more valuable than the sum of it's parts.
Thank you.
Debra Smith
Mar 2 2011: The Chinese deal to build a canal in Columbia is certainly an important story that I am not hearing much about. This is relevant because it will change the way business is done around the globe. The Panama canal is currently used beyond capacity and China has limited access to the Atlantic in shipping. The proposed canal will change that and change which goods are available from China at low prices.

I also think that there is shockingly little conversation about holding the creators of the global financial meltdown responsible for their fraudulent actions.Mar 1 2011: Somaliland. I had never even heard of it until a year ago. Have you?
It is not an event, it is a country, related to countless negative events reported in the news constantly in neighbouring Somalia. A peaceful, prosperous part of Somalia that has its own capital, government, and where people are leading relatively normal lives. As a non-country, however, it cannot benefit from most forms of official development assistance. A good article was published about it in National Geographic recently.Mar 1 2011: resource-based economy. zeitgeistFeb 28 2011: There is a huge subject that hasn't quite spawned the debate one might expect - the erosion not of single tracts of land (monoculture) or even whole countries (Haiti), but of planet earth as a whole. David R. Montgomery wrote a book about it (Dirt: The Erosion of Civilizations). he leads the Geomophological Research Group at the University of Washington in Seattle.
According to his studies 24 billion tons of soil are lost annualy. It is not a hot topic as climate change, it is not politicized yet. Even though the UN called it the "quiet tsunami". It might be because agricultural policies are not as flashy as climate change or the question about energy. Soil being the basis for human civilization makes it a rather urgent matter though.Feb 20 2011: A good place to start might be the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting (http://pulitzercenter.org/), which funds experienced journalists to cover under-reported stories worldwide. Right now they're highlighting a few stories on the situation in Sudan, where a momentous secession process has just taken place peacefully and democratically to form the first new country in Africa in decades, while the war in Darfur is quietly re-igniting (quietly, that is, as far as the rest of the world is concerned). They're also looking at the guerrilla war that's ramping up again in Russia's Caucasus Mountains, Malaysian forest destruction for palm oil production, the brutal war waged by the Lord's Resistance Army in Uganda, Haiti after the quake, and much more.
As a former editor for OneWorld.net (full disclosure), I would be remiss if I didn't also mention that OneWorld continues to cover the global human rights and development stories others are ignoring. On the news page today, for example, are stories about Zimbabwe (Robert Mugabe turns 87 this week!), the notorious exploits of the Japanese Whaling Fleet in the South Pacific, and the murder of an indigenous leader in Brazil. More here: http://oneworldgroup.org/headlinesFeb 17 2011: Now adays, the best way to follow such news is through Twitter especially that most of international political activists and bloggers have accounts there and are always keeping their statuses updated with current happenings in different places around the world. I am from Egypt and during the whole revolution ( before the internet cut off) I relied solely on Twitter and tweeps who used to broadcast live from demonstrations, that for me was 100 times more credible than any other news source especially that these people are mostly eye witnesses that News agencies, TV channels and newspapers use inorder help them report whats happening or what has happened on the spot of the incident.

Feb 15 2011: How about the fact that 40% of the ice caps have melted practically overnight in geological terms. That has got to mean something on the planet has shifted. But which direction?

Eric AndersonMar 14 2011: 1 degree in 200 years does not make man made global warming via CO2 real. Not suported by data from the past 200 years with several 20 to 30 year periods of decreased average temperatures and increased atmospheric CO2.
Not Supported by the record of temperature and CO2 levels for the las 2.5 million or 100 million years.
Although most westerners believe in what they are told.
In the matter of slavish imitation, man is the monkey's superior all the time. The average man is destitute of independence of opinion. He is not interested in contriving a opinion of his own, by study and reflection, but is only anxious to find out what his neighbor's opinion is and slavishly adopt it.
- Mark Twain's AutobiographyMar 12 2011: As the nature of media is somehow selective process by journalists and by media owners, and their interests and agenda must be highly influencial on coverage of various media. Certain ideologies, political and economical agenda might be manipulated in a disguise of entertainment as well. Thus, it is presumable that there will be a lot of information that exists yet not covered.
For example, freedom of expression in China was outrageous in China as we saw in Wei Wei's video footage. Not to mention, stories about people in poverty, trafficking, and/or family violence are too innumerous and depressing to cover by media most of the time.
Also, many activism efforts, such as those of Noam Chomsky and Amy goodman will be hardly seen on National News.Mar 10 2011: Bruno this is an issue I wrestled with a lot as a foreign policy editor, where each day I looked across the world at what was happening and tried to assign weight to developments. The media business is competitive and therefore thrives on this-just-in and on stories with lots of tension. It doesn't do slow-motion stories well. Not enough tension, not enough daily movement. This is a structural problem, yet but it's also a distribution problem. It's not sufficient to decree from on high that, hey world, you better start paying attention to this issue that's really vital. What needs to happen is to find those in the world who are passionate about that issue and then use them to make the rest of us care. The current media model isn't built for that kind of dynamic interplay. It's a one-to-many model for the most part, with very limited feedback. I believe that social games are an emerging media construct that can help with this problem of the underreported stories. Games? What is DeMarco talking about? Games are about play, interaction and what-ifs. The 21st century media audience will not only expect to be engaged directly in a story, it will demand to be engaged. It's about community. That audience will itself bring these lesser known stories to light, with the context that makes a wider audience care. I invite you to check out a game I'm developing with veteran games builders called GiG (short for Global Innovation Game) on Facebook. It's still embryonic, and we're still working out the tricky business of building what amounts to an idea market in the frame of game play. But it's a start. We're putting a lot of content into the game around environmental issues because this is a classic slow-motion story of major importance but often difficult to tell in its many parts. And the environment is a cross-border issue, and increasingly we're dealing with an internationally aware (young) audience eager to adopt solutions from around the world. So, see the game and GiG It!Mar 10 2011: Geo-engineering and the impacts of alluminium, barium, striontium and sulphates on life on earth.
If this is to save the planet, why is no-one talking about it.Mar 10 2011: The horrendous anti-union bill being passed right now by the Wisconsin congress. Protesters broke into city hall http://www.livestream.com/theuptake theres a live stream right here

Mar 10 2011: The smallest courts in the U.S. hand out the greatest number of judgments, but they are all unwatched. You have no idea that the judge hearing your case has received campaign contributions from the opposing side. There should be a national clearninghouse showing judicial contributions, rulings and possible biases.Mar 3 2011: I wish there was more media attention focused on climate change, and the consequential loss of animal life in the Antarctic. I keep thinking about Paul Nicklen and that amazing leopard seal, whose tenacious attempts to feed him her food is reminiscent of my mother. I was so moved by his passionate plea to help him get the word out about the plight of the polar bears and the leopard seals. I have actually been considering Paul's emotional invitation to join him in the Antarctic. If you knew me, you would be very surprised, as I moved from NYC several years ago to southern CA, to flee from the "frigid winters" there!
- 0
Each time I tell a friend about the plight of the polar bears, they tell me that they had not known about this issue, which surprises me. Maybe you can assemble a media team to join you to help focus attention on this issue. By the way, I have wondered, as a temporary band-aid, would it possibly work to use strategically placed barges to act as small "icebergs" for the bears and seals?
Thank you, Paul Nicklen, for sharing your powerful message with us,

www.MyWakeUpCalls.netMar 3 2011: The events of the day seem to be dealt with in the media much more after a crisis has occurred. I liken it to the hawkers on the road seeing what accident has caused them a problem. They have taken no steps (nor will they) to see what can be done to repar possible problem states, they will merely go on watching the slower traffic. This is negative, I know, but I have seen it for decades.Mar 2 2011: Why is no one examining the implications of the brewing wide spread confligration in the Middle East, and what that might mean for the West?Mar 1 2011: I'm no pollyanna, but we do have a hard time acknowledging monumentally good news, without looking for the crap that we believe has to be underneath it. Recent obvious example: the democratic revolution in Tunisia, Egypt, now Libya (if you predicted Libya, a gold star for you). Also as mentioned previously peaceful nation building transition in Southern Sudan. Earlier examples: peaceful transition in South Africa (still the most astounding story of the post WWII period), the amazing success of Cambodians, Laotians and especially Vietnamese in the US, our integration of so many cultures and nations generally (far from perfect, but nowhere else does this happen).

Full Metal Village
Every year, approximately 40,000 heavy metal enthusiasts descend upon the sleepy Schleswig-Holstein village of Wacken - population 1,800 - for The Wacken Open Air festival - one of the biggest heavy metal concerts on the planet. While most would suspect that the peace-loving locals might be extremely upset by the flood of unsightly Cannibal Corpse and Death Angel fans who have been crowding into the town every summer since 1990, South Korean filmmaker Cho Sung-Hyung paints a much different picture. Filmed in the tradition of a German heimat or homeland film, Heavy Metal Village highlights the manner in which the tolerant citizens of Wacken have actually come to embrace the rebellious music fans who put this quaint, north German town on the map despite the annual havoc it wrecks on their tranquil routine.~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Maurice Sendak wasn't your average children's author and illustrator. Citing Herman Melville, Emily Dickinson, and Mozart as primary influences, his interest in the classics—and unwillingness to dumb things down for his young readers—is perhaps why his work remains head and shoulders above that of nearly all other 20th-century children's storytellers. Personally selected by Sendak from Lullabies and Night Songs, this framed 1971 reproduction was printed on a single sheet of paper and shows no center crease or division.
Original 1971 fine art paper reproduction in black hardwood frame with archival mat and mounting hardware. Includes a copy of letter from Maurice Sendak telling the story of how and why the works were selected to be included in this unique portfolio.
To create the print this reproduction is based upon, Sendak's original artwork was re-photographed at the Rosenbach Museum & Library in Philadelphia. Each image was perfectly reproduced, and for the very first time, those pictures (which were created as double-page images) were printed on single sheets of paper. This reproduction shows no center crease or division. Measurements given are for full sheets, including margins and frame.

Thanks for the recipe - I have some Tahini in my pantry I've been wanting to use. I love your blog!ReplyDelete
I also love the link to "I Am Grateful." I didn't know about this book or Cafe and I am thrilled to learn about it. This whole year I've been focusing on gratitude, especially related to parenting, so I really appreciate hearing about other folks who are focused on gratitude.
Hi Ali,ReplyDelete
Love the recipe as Im always looking for Gluten Free and Dairy Free recipes.
However I am also living with someone who has tree nut allergies. Can you think of anything else to use besides the Almond Butter?
PS...I love your blog it always makes me happy when I see a new post.
This sounds wonderfully rich. I definitely want to try it!ReplyDelete
Oh my! I love the flavours and everything! This sounds very delicious =D.ReplyDelete
Hilary - How wonderful for you and your family to focus each day on gratefulness! I am sure that brings a lot of peace and love. Enjoy the dip!ReplyDelete

Cafe Gratitude is a wonderful restaurant. I wish there was one in AZ so I could eat there more!
Nice recipe! Very garlicky so those who are, ahem, sensitive, might want to watch that. I put it over veggie burgers for dinner tonight. Added some extra coconut milk to thin and make it a bit less tahini-y. :)ReplyDelete
Thanks for sharing this recipe and cookbook! I bought the book, made the recipe with these changes --ReplyDelete
I used your suggestion for making this into a savory herb dip without the spice. Only I didn't have any coconut milk in the midst of it all, so added a combo of olive oil and water. It is fantastic! My teenage son actually likes it!!
I loooove this recipe! I make it for a client i cook for who cannot have garlic, so i subbed shallot instead...it an excellent dip for steam veggies and is a great salad dressing.ReplyDelete
Wow I've never thought of using coconut milk in a savoury dip like this. Looks delicious and with depth of flavour.ReplyDelete
Awesome dip and/or sauce! I've made it twice now and love it! I threw in a bunch of fresh herbs and Hawaiian chili peppers, absolutely delish!! Mahalo for the wonderful recipes. =)ReplyDelete

A very nice Internet streamed radio/TV manager, and set up for easy find, capture and play.
A simple GUI belying its relatively extensive functionality and a comprehensive set of tools.
Key Features:
- Enables you to listen to and simultaneously record multiple streamed Internet Radio Stations from around the world.
- Search, capture and management of available Internet radio stations and their output.
- Capture and management of recording/playback of Internet radio stations and specific song tracks (where track separation is possible in a digital stream).
- Search for and select Internet-streamed radio stations from around the world.
- Select, sort, manage station Favourites.
- Select/set some stations as presets for speed of access.
- Select several stations to stream simultaneously as a grouped "Session". (Like saving a set of tabs in a browsing session, to restart as a set at a later point.)
- Stream and record multiple stations simultaneously, whilst listening to another station.
- Uses streamed station data (where present) to collect station logo and album cover art for currently streaming sessions, and song lyrics.
- Can record either a station stream or just a currently playing song (if the stream data defines the latter).
- Has facility to create a schedule for automatic recording.
- Displays station stream information.
- Displays cover art and lyrics for each song.
- Can also connect to Internet TV stations.
- Shutdown timer.
- Dynamic boost.

WARNING: (Edit 2012-04-27) The installer currently comes with an OpenCandy install and if you do not select the "Custom Installation" and untick the Babylon adware, then the adware will be installed by default.
If, like me, you have an outgoing firewall block (I use Windows 7 Firewall Control <--- ), then the installer will not be able to "phone home" and fetch the adware, and the OpenCandy part of the install will not occur and will not be apparent to you at all.
(Thanks to @PhilB66 for alerting me to this, in the discussion thread below.)
Who this app is designed for:
Anyone who likes to listen to different radio services across the world, and who would also like to record stations/songs - or, (say) a radio theatre play - as they listen.
The Good:
It works very well, and does what it is designed to do.
Is a surprisingly comprehensive radio application.
Comprehensive Help file.
It seems to be constrained only by those stations that do not meet with the stream data standard that RarmaRadio needs to look for.
Thus you may get one station that is mono in one ear, or RarmaRadio is unable to automatically determine the details of a song that is streaming, or when it has ended (for recording purposes).
Super radio, and a beautiful, intuitive interface.
Very useful and enjoyable tool for those who like listening to the radio and/or recording programmes/music.
(I have not checked out its TV functionality.)

Breast Augmentation
Breast Reduction
Dr. Antonetti offers complimentary consultations for all cosmetic procedures. You initially meet with Dr. Antonetti for a slide presentation to learn more about the procedure and view before and after pictures, and answer any questions you may have. A physical examination is also done to assure that you are a good candidate for the procedure. A meeting with the patient coordinator follows to answer general questions regarding surgery dates and times, view other pictures if necessary and to book your surgery. You leave with an information packet about the procedure and Dr. Antonetti. Dr. Antonetti also offers botox injections, Microdermabrasion and chemical peels. These procedures require an initial visit with Dr. Antonetti as well. Once you have decided on a surgery date a second consultation date is made. This is usually done a week before your surgery. You meet with Dr. Antonetti again to go over surgery day and answer any last minute questions. You meet with Dr. Antonetti's nurse to go over your surgery permits and talk in depth about the recovery and aftercare. Becoming familiar with all the staff you will encounter we feel is essential to the highest level of comfort during your experience on surgery day.

Hi, I have a fxp0 problem that bothers me for a long time, the question is how to prevent regular traffic been routed to OOB (fxp0) interface. The senario is
fxp0 (10.1.1.10/24)---[L2 switch]---[PC2, 10.1.1.100/24]
| |
traffic ----> [router] ------------> [FW] --(other subnet under FW)
When PC1 (10.2.2.200) wants to access PC2 (10.1.1.100), the regular traffic path should be PC1 --> router--> FW-->L2 SW-->PC2, but as soon as packet hit [router], the [router] routes the packet to fxp0 interface. Consequently, the PC1 never able to sent packet to PC2.
I googled this for many many times (maybe I did not use right key words), there is one man who suggested to create a special VRF for fxp0, but JUNOS rejects to put fxp0 into VRF. Also this method is not possible for EX (no VRF on EX, as far as I know)
Is there a standard config template from Juniper for this senario?
Thanks in advance.
The fxp0 interface is out-of-band management interface for monitoring configuring the router independently of the network links. The router does not route traffic from network over fxp0 and traffic coming on this interface is never forwarded to network interfaces therefore it is not possible to use it to route traffic as you are looking for.
Hope this helps
12-29-2008 10:04 PM - edited 12-29-2008 10:06 PM
Hi Kashift,
Yes, I know fxp0 is not routeable, so that is why I need help on this.
As my diagram shows, regular packet from PC1 to PC2 will (I don't know why) try to go to fxp0 as soon as it arrive the [router]. I do need help to make the packet from PC1 to PC2 go out the [router] by routed to [FW].
Moreover, is it possible to make sure the packet from [PC1] to fxp0 is going through [FW], and packet from fxp0 (source ip = fxp0) to [PC1] is always go through [FW] also? (such as the behavior on Procket Router).
my suggestion would be to have a separate subnet for fxp0, and maybe configure secondary addresses on the PCs that are connected to same l2 switch for management access. In your design, since 10.1.1/24 network is a direct route from fxp0, it is expected that the packets will try to use that interface.
Of course you can try to go with other options such as filter based forwarding, PVLAN (not sure if that's currently supported on EX) but I'd say the best approach, also from a design perspective, would be to have a different subnet for mgmt traffic.
I have to agree with Erdems comments. From a network design point of view, you should not have your fxp0 interface be on same subnet as that of your transit traffic. The whole point of an OOB management interface is that it be reachable from a management LAN only. Also as you have discovered, given that the expectation is to have a separate management LAN you are not allowed to add fxp0 to a routing-instance. But one alternative could be to put your transit traffic into its own virtual router routing-instance. Of course, that could also add to the complexity of your overall network scheme and perhaps have its own set of problems to be worked out. So really the best thing is to isolate the fxp0 network from transit network.
Well, you say divide network, management and "normal traffic".
But ... where should be a NSM traffic? What's best practise?
The clue is in the name
NSM = Network and Security Manager so NSM traffic to the local box is THE management traffic.
We are facing the same issue ! The firewall (SRX650) we are using is the gateway of the management interface for all the servers and network equipment inside the platforms.
And the problem is : We are using NSM to manage the FW via fxp0 and moreover we are using NSM to configure switches (EX4200) behind the same firewall...
To perform this configuration, we were forced to add two IPs for the NSM : one for managing the fw cluster (fxp0) and one to manage the switches ....
But now, we have a server which have only one IP and we can't add one other :-/ I have no idea to do it simply..
You need the fxp0 interface to be in a different routing-table.. Currently the only way to do this is on M/MX/J, etc.. systems that support logical-systems. You can put the fxp interface into a logical-system, but cannot put it into a routing-instance..
I've been yelling at Juniper for years now to do this with unheard results.. The only other way to do it is to put all of your other device interfaces into a routing-instance..
With this limitation the fxp interfaces are absolutely worthless IMHO.
Ok, you may use virtual-router as routing-instance, fxp0 is in inet.0 and other traffic is in router-instance.inet.0.
(Or not?)

I think the signing of Wallace will come back to haunt this team its alot of money to dump into one player, when the team needs so much.
It's ok, there's always Anthony Fasan...... Nevermind.
Saw someone say we could trade for finley...NO NO NO. One of my best friends is a Green Bay fan (season ticket holder for 10 years) and After watching lots of Their games Finley has the Dropsies to the extreme, you do not want him.Not reliable and he is not the man to stand up and make a game changingplay when a game is on the line.
You need to pay for talent!unless you are ok with mediocrity,they have to spend so much according to league rules!Ya we could have signed 13 backup type players.We finally get OUR pick and people still complain i dont get it
We can draft a guy just as good. No worries. Plus Clay might show up.
How bout brandon meyers dustin keller tony gonz
An hour & a half into free agency....a draft still left. I'm sure it's going to be addressed, probably sooner than later.
I'd rather have a good offensive lineman and a real good defensive lineman. Wake + either Freeney, Abraham, and/or Especially Kruger. TE just seems like a luxury at this point.

As long as Snoop isn't hurting anyone, he can smoke as much as he wants. That's what's happening here in Colorado. The cops here are at a loss of what to do...they can't stop people from smoking anymore, but they are still trying to regulate who can sell the stuff. The medicinal marijuana places, which have been running for quite a while, are now worried that people are just going to grow their own stuff. I think you are allowed to grow five marijuana plants. By the way, I saw Snoop at the Citadel Mall here a while back. He went into a Foot Locker store and bought a couple thousand dollars worth of shoes and he gave a whole bunch of them away.

The reading list
"Those of us fortunate enough to live in the developed world fret too much about minor hazards of everyday life: improbable air crashes, carcinogens in food, and so forth. But we are less secure than we think. We should worry far more about scenarios that have thankfully not yet happened – but which, if they occurred, could cause such world-wide devastation that even once would be too often.
"Much has been written about possible ecological shocks triggered by the collective impact of a growing and more demanding world population on the biosphere, and about the social and political tensions stemming from scarcity of resources or climate change. But even more worrying are the downsides of powerful new technologies: cyber-, bio-, and nano-. We're entering an era when a few individuals could, via error or terror, trigger a societal breakdown with such extreme suddenness that palliative government actions would be overwhelmed.
"Some would dismiss these concerns as an exaggerated Jeremiad: After all, human societies have survived for millennia, despite storms, earthquakes and pestilence. But these human-induced threats are different: They are newly emergent, so we have a limited timebase for exposure to them and can't be so sanguine that we would survive them for long – nor about the ability of governments to cope if disaster strikes. And of course we have zero grounds for confidence that we can survive the worst that even more powerful future technologies could do.
"The 'anthropocene' era, when the main global threats come from humans and not from nature, began with the mass deployment of thermonuclear weapons. Throughout the Cold War, there were several occasions when the superpowers could have stumbled toward nuclear Armageddon through muddle or miscalculation. Those who lived anxiously through the Cuba crisis would have been not merely anxious but paralytically scared had they realized just how close the world then was to catastrophe. Only later did we learn that President Kennedy assessed the odds of nuclear war, at one stage, as 'somewhere between one in three and even.' And only when he was long-retired did Robert MacNamara state frankly that '[w]e came within a hairbreadth of nuclear war without realizing it.' "

Having debuted with the national team back in 2011 at EuroBasket, Aleksey Shved has been a key figure on this team since. He averaged 8.5 points in Lithuania evolving into first point guard option in the process. Shved then was one of the team's stars alongside Andrei Kirilenko and Viktor Khryapa at the 2012 Olympic Games. He averaged more than 11 points and scored 25 in the bronze medal game against Argentina to help Russia reach perhaps its biggest success to date. The Timberwolves guard is an amazing ball handler who changes direction and speed of his dribbling with ease. With excellent size for the backcourt, he is a playmaker who can create for himself and also for others, especially utilising the pick and roll. Shved worked a lot on his body during the past season which allowed him to become a better finisher and defender, he can now guard both guard positions. Aleksey has never had any problems concerning his self-confidence but the very impressive rookie season with the Minnesota Timberwolves will obviously help him even more. He averaged 8.6 points and made it to the Rookie Challenge game. The 24-year-old will be playing his first tournament in a star status, when a big part of the team's result depends on him. It will be interesting to see how he deals with the pressure.
