Demi Moore Denies Having Plastic Surgery


In a recent interview, actress Demi Moore addressed rumors that she's had a ton of plastic surgery to look as good as she does. She denies everything.

"[The plastic surgery rumors are] completely false," Demi tells Marie Claire France. "I've never had it done. I don't like the idea of having an operation to hold up the aging process. The scalpel won't make you happy."

Hmmm.... Very interesting. Demi, I think your nose is growing... and it's not from a rhinoplasty.

It's funny that she would feel comfortable to admit using leeches to suck and "detoxify" her blood but would be all denials with plastic surgery. (Link)

Click here for my previous post on the rumors she's had $3 million of plastic surgery.

Family Doctor or Plastic Surgeon?


Terrible story coming out of Las Vegas. A woman won a free breast augmentation by the doctor of a medspa, the Skin Body Institute. She had the surgery performed under local anesthesia, but then sufferred horrible complications. Some details from ABC 13:

- She was awake for the whole procedure, and was crying the entire time. The doctor reprimanded her for complaining during the painful procedure.
- Just weeks later the implant became infected and was exposed through the skin.
- She subsequently underwent 10 hours of surgery under local anesthetic to try to fix the problem.
- Two weeks later she presented to the ER with ruptured and exposed implants.
- The doctor had made ten centimeter incisions (mine are typically 3 cm for saline, 4 cm for silicone).
- The doctor's website had stated he was board-certified.
- He was not certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery, but by the Family Practice board.
- Still, his website listed him as an associate member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, the American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery, American Society of Liposuction Surgery, and the American Society of Cosmetic Dermatology and Aesthetic Surgery.
-His license has been suspended.

This is another terrible incident where the patient didn't do her homework and was the victim of a phony plastic surgeon. This unfortunately happens more often than most people realize. Always choose a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and a member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. As you can see above, a doctor in a bunch of other societies isn't the same.

Berbagi lewat Navbar blogger



Mengamati perkembangan blogger sepertinya tidak akan ada habisnya, 
dihari jadi blogger yang ke 10 tahun ini terlihat blogger semakin berbenah diri
dan terus saja memperbaiki platform andalan mereka. Jika sebelumnya blogger
menambahkan fitur terbaru pada label dengan

style label cloud
, kali ini blogger menambahkan lagi fitur terbaru yang kali
ini berkaitan dengan navigation bar (navbar).








Jika diperhatikan, ada satu tambahan baru berupa link "share" yang
dikhususkan untuk mempermudah pengunjung untuk membagikan konten-konten berguna. 
Terlihat ada 4 tujuan layanan populer ketika pengujung mengklik link "berbagi"
pada fitur ini yaitu pengunjung dapat membagikannya langsung via Email, Twitter,
Facebook dan Google Reader.







Di lain cerita, menurut saya pribadi, dengan adanya fitur "share from
navbar"
mungkin saja ini usaha blogger untuk menghindari penggunanya agar
tidak meng-hidden fasilitas navbar yang sudah disediakan  blogger sejak
hadir pertama kali. Yah tapi mo gimana lagi, kita juga berusaha khan agar
tampilan blog pribadi di blogger bisa terlihat profesional dan gak berkesan
gratisan. Jadi ya terserah, navbar ini mau ditampilkan apa tidak hehehe

The Gretchen Project


Gretchen Rossi, a star of the Real Housewives of Orange County, has started what she calls the Gretchen Project. From her website:

The Gretchen Project hosted by Gretchen Rossi follows her through her pursuit of beauty. Gretchen will find the new, now and next in beauty from leading medical and beauty experts from around the world with the ultimate goal to pass along the pearls of wisdom to the modern day woman.

She starts this pursuit of beauty by going to the Five Continent Congress for Lasers and Aesthetic Medicine in Nice, France. Not a bad vacation destination, I must say. Although the only time I went there I was still a college student carrying a backpack, a Eurail pass, and about two hundred bucks in American Express travelers checks!

To view Gretchen explaining The Gretchen Project, click here.

p.s. I hear rumors that she might be using Syneron's new, innovative eMatrix device for skin tightening...

Jika sebelumnya blogger hanya menyediakan label dalam bentuk daftar bullet,
namun sekarang sepertinya sudah ada penambahan fasilitas baru lagi dimana sudah
tersedianya widget label Cloud (awan). Ini dapat rekan lihat
langsung pada widget label masing-masing. Setelah
diaktifkan, label yang lebih populer muncul dalam font yang lebih besar daripada
label yang kurang populer.




Pilih Label - Fasilitas lain yang ditambahkan pada label yaitu kita
dapat memilih dengan menyeleksi label mana saja yang ingin ditampilkan.
