...idea for what it is: a damaging, destructive lie. As the enlightened, it is our sacred duty to debunk this myth wherever it occurs. Do not ignore those who spew this falsehood, but confront them with the truth—not their version of the truth warped by false lux but true veritas. A child’s future is at stake. Education is the best vaccination...
...version? The latest trend is medical devices that use new noninvasive technologies that produce natural-looking results and let patients get back to work quickly. On the table: tools that use radio frequencies (Thermage), plasma gas (Portrait), infrared light (Titan), light-emitting diodes (GentleWaves), pulsed light (Palomar Medical Technologies' Lux system) and lasers (Fraxel, Vbeam) to smooth out and tighten the skin and soften the appearance of wrinkles. Syneron's eMax uses radio frequencies and light energies and costs about $175,000. According to Shiu-Yik Au, an analyst for Millennium Research Group, the market for aesthetic medical equipment will...

An entire row of shops has lost its front, as though sliced off by a blunt cheese wire, and bars of Lux soap, pastries and plastic toys spill out onto the street. We pass broken villages and military camps, including an artillery battery swamped by a mudslide, still vainly pointing toward Pakistan 10 miles away. There are three or four checkpoints. Then a landslide announces the end of the road...
