Hepatorenal syndrome is a condition in which there is progressive kidney failure. It occurs in a person with cirrhosis of the liver. It is a serious complication that can lead to death.
Hepatorenal syndrome occurs when the kidneys stop working well in people with serious liver problems. Less urine is removed from the body, so waste products that contain nitrogen build up in the bloodstream (azotemia ).
The disorder occurs in up to 1 in 10 patients who are in the hospital with liver failure. It leads to kidney failure in people with:
Risk factors include:
This condition is diagnosed after testing to rule out other causes of kidney failure.
A physical exam does not detect kidney failure directly. However, the exam will very often show signs of chronic liver disease, such as:
Other signs include:
The following may be signs of kidney failure:
The following may be signs of liver failure:
The goal of treatment is to help the liver work better and to make sure the heart is able to pump enough blood to the body.
Treatment is about the same as for kidney failure from any cause. It includes:
The outcome is often poor. Death often occurs due to an infection or severe bleeding (hemorrhage).
This disorder most often is diagnosed in the hospital during treatment for a liver disorder.

Hassan, Lamontagne triumph in New Hampshire governor's race
Tuesday, September 11, 2012
DOVER — In the race for governor, Republican Ovide Lamontagne and Democrat Maggie Hassan have prevailed in the New Hampshire primary. Election officials and voters alike are also using today's election as a trial run of New Hampshire's new voter identification requirements, which will go into full effect in the general election in November. Voters are being asked to voluntarily present photo identification by election officials before they receive a ballot. In Newmarket, voters have expressed both support for and disdain of the new identification requirements, according to Town Clerk Becky I. Benvenuti. By 10:15 a.m., a few hours after polls opened in the morning, 14 people had neglected to bring proper identification, and another six had refused, on principle, to show identification, Benvenuti said. "I guess the best thing to say is I've noticed a lot of passion on either side of this law," Newmarket Town Moderator Clay Mitchell said. "There are some people who are very supportive. There are some people who oppose it very much." The voter identification law was passed by New Hampshire's Republican Legislature in 2012. It will phase in a photo identification requirement, beginning with this election cycle. During today's primary, any voter who did not present an approved photo identification was still permitted to vote. During the general election on Nov. 6, voters without ID will be allowed to vote after signing a so-called "challenged voter" affidavit. Hassan and Lamontagne are seeking to replace retiring Democrat Gov. John Lynch, a popular moderate who won four two-year terms. Republicans are eager after eight years to reclaim the governor's seat, but candidates in both parties are struggling to get voters to recognize their names. In a poll done last month, undecided was the winner. Lamontagne, a 54-year-old Manchester lawyer, stressed his experience as a business lawyer and working with charities makes him better qualified. Hassan, a former Senate majority leader and 54-year-old lawyer from Exeter, argues the key to prosperity is education. Hassan says an educated workforce is the place to start in rebuilding the economy. She would restore aid cut under Republicans to the University System of New Hampshire in exchange for a tuition freeze and more slots for resident students. Hassan says she had to bring people together as Senate majority leader to get results and would do the same as governor. |

(MT 28:19-20a) This Great Commission of Our Lord closes Matthew's Gospel. With it, Christ charged the Apostles to spread the Good News of salvation throughout the world, setting the world ablaze with the love of the Father. This mandate continues to animate the Church and comes to us through the ages, passed along faithfully from one generation to the next. The Catechetics Program at Franciscan University of Steubenville exists to prepare students to join the "army of catechists" called for by the late Pope John Paul II, eager to help the Church in her mission of making all nations disciples of Jesus Christ. We combine a thorough study of Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and magisterial documents with training in proper and effective pedagogical techniques to prepare our students to grasp the intelligibility and coherence of divine truths, and to pass them along effectively. Founded in 1994 by then President Fr. Michael Scanlan, Chair of Theology Dr. Alan Schreck, and Professor Barbara Morgan, the Theology Department's Office of Catechetics developed both an undergraduate degree in Religious Education and a graduate Catechetics specialization as part of the MA Theology Program. Alumni from these programs are now working as directors of religious education and adult faith formation at both the parish and diocesan levels, pastoral associates, campus ministers, youth ministers, catechetical writers, heads of religious education departments, and teachers in high schools and elementary schools. Students, including priests and religious, come from throughout the United States and countries such as Canada, Nigeria, Uganda, Ghana, Sri Lanka, Australia, Belize, El Salvador, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Israel, England, and Ireland. The demand for graduates of Franciscan University's Catechetics program results from the unique combination of theological knowledge, pedagogical theory, and practical training students acquire in our program. Our professors make this integrated training possible, bringing a wealth of knowledge and broad experience from years of study and transmitting the Gospel through many different avenues. Our approach embraces three aspects: pastoral, doctrinal, and liturgical. These points, from the General Directory for Catechesis (GDC), will help aid in understanding the formation of catechists:
The Office of Catechetics at Franciscan University of Steubenville has consistently responded diligently to this need for renewal in the area of catechesis. In light of the above and embracing the practical guidance proposed by the Church today, the Office of Catechetics aspires to follow closely the divine mandate which comes from Christ through the Church.

St. John Bosco is the patron saint of the catechetics programs at Franciscan University. Usually his name is connected with the care of young boys, which he did, but Don Bosco was a master catechist and left a very simple method of teaching. He was born in the Piedmont area of Italy in 1815. As a young child, he already had the desire to catechize the young. He taught his young friends about the faith as well as entertaining them with his juggling and acrobatics. When he was nine, he had a dream in which boys who were fighting and swearing around him. He tried to make them stop by arguing with them and then fighting with them. A beautiful lady then appeared to him saying, "Softly, softly if you wish to tame them! Take your shepherd's staff and lead them to pasture." From this experience, his approach to leading his boys to Jesus Christ became rooted in love. He was ordained to the priesthood and began his work in the area surrounding the city of Turin, deep in the heart of an industrial area, where boys roamed the streets uncared for and causing trouble. They became his life's work. He took care of them and taught them trades, but he felt his most important work was the salvation of their souls and that the most important place for catechizing was the confessional. But he was also rigorous in teaching the boys the Catechism; they needed to understand the faith as well as practice it in their daily lives. In 1979, John Paul II would write that the aims of catechesis were understanding and conversion (Catechesi Tradendae 20). Over a hundred years earlier, St. John Bosco had the same aims. His work attracted like-minded young men, and soon he formed the Salesians, named in honor of St. Francis de Sales, whose gentle disposition in the face of great heresy earned him the title of "The Doctor of Love." His congregation, which became one of the largest men's communities in the Church, followed Don Bosco's method of reason, religion and kindness. When asked about his method, he would simply reply that it was based on love. In fact, he boldly stated, "Get them to love you, and they'll follow you anywhere." Don Bosco died in 1888, after a life spent helping thousands of boys (including St. Dominic Savio Bosco) to know Jesus, to live a sacramental life, rooted especially in the Eucharist, to love the Church and the Pope, and to be useful citizens. He inspired St. Maria Mazzarello to found the Daughters of Mary, Help of Christians, for the care of girls. This congregation became the largest women's religious congregation in the Church. May he inspire all catechists to care for the salvation of souls. Back to Top
Eugene Kevane was born on June 5, 1913, on a family farm in the parish of St. Mary's, Storm Lake, Buena Vista County, Iowa. He attended a one-room country elementary school and a public high school. After college he spent four years in the seminary, including studies at the Gregorian in Rome. He was ordained as a priest for the Diocese of Sioux City, Iowa. After earning an M.A. from Creighton University in Omaha, Nebraska, he founded Heelan High School in 1949, where he was principal for ten years. In 1959 he joined the faculty of the Catholic University of America, where he received a Ph.D. in Philosophy of Education with a doctoral thesis later published as Augustine the Educator. After some years as Dean of the School of Education at Catholic University, Msgr. Kevane left for St. John's University in Long Island, New York. Later he would found the Notre Dame Catechetical Institute in the Diocese of Arlington, Virginia, designed to provide an M.A. program in catechetics totally in line with Magisterial teachings at a time when such studies were hard to come by. His scholarly writings (nine books and innumerable articles in many languages) reveal a consummate grasp of the teachings of the Church as well as the underlying errors that make it so difficult for some contemporary Catholics to embrace those truths. With sometimes biting logic in his writings and teachings, Msgr. Kevane knew how to show up the erroneous teachings of modern philosophers whose ideas would serve to undermine Catholic belief. In a dramatic fashion this great teacher, after letting his students almost reach despair at the thought of the triumph of error in modern times, would suddenly begin to tell of the revival of true Catholic philosophy that came with the encyclical Aeterni Patris of Leo XIII. As well, he would pour energy into assembling all the catechetical documents of recent centuries so that a future catechist would never have to guess what the Church really taught about this unsung but absolutely necessary ministry. Due to a long, drawn-out ordeal with heart trouble that was eventually fatal, Msgr. Kevane spent most of his last years in frailty and suffering, no doubt offering up all his pain and diminishment for the Church he loved so profoundly. Msgr. Eugene Kevane died on October 13, 1996. May he rest in peace, but always intercede for those of us he left behind to carry on the glorious work of defending the truths which are our salvation. Back to Top
Barbara Morgan was invited to Franciscan University of Steubenville in 1994 by Father Michael Scanlan to establish the Catechetics Program in response to the growing number of students attracted to the University with a desire to serve the Church. Barbara's deep knowledge of the Faith, extensive experience in the catechetical field, her passion for teaching, and her love of the Lord and His Church made her the ideal candidate for this undertaking. Studying under the guidance of Msgr. Eugene Kevane, founder of the Notre Dame Institute for Catechetics, Barbara received her Advanced Apostolic Catechetical Diploma and a MA in Religious Studies from NDI. She brought to Franciscan University Msgr. Kevane's discipline and vision for the catechetical work which lies at the heart of the Church's mission. Barbara's catechetical career began at the age of 14 when she volunteered to assist her own catechist at local Native American reservations. Throughout her career she has served as youth minister, adult education director and director of religious education. With her pastor she also helped her parish become one of the first in the country to implement the newly released Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults. Her expertise eventually led her to be a consultant for Catechesis to the Diocese of Peoria, an RCIA consultant for the Archdiocese of Washington DC, and a Catechist training consultant for the Diocese of Sioux Falls. After arriving at Franciscan University, Barbara Morgan did more than found the Catechetics program. At the request of Christoph Cardinal Schönborn, she established a relationship between the Office of Catechetics, Maryvale Institute in England, and the Studium of Notre Dame de Vie in Venasque, France. To serve those catechists and teachers in the field who were unable to come to the University to pursue degrees, she also founded the St. John Bosco Conference for Catechists and Religious Educators held every summer at the University. Though Barbara retired from the University in 2005, she continues her work for the Lord, fulfilling her long awaited desire to contribute more regularly to the catechetical formation of her grandchildren. Though sorely missed at Franciscan University, her legacy will remain for years to come. Her zeal and enthusiasm to put others into communion with Jesus Christ has been infused into each of the Catechetics courses. As more and more students pass through the Catechetics program, there becomes a growing number of trained catechists ready to share the love of Christ with the world. Franciscan University of Steubenville, as well as the Catholic Church, will forever be grateful for the hard work and determination of Barbara Morgan, the foundress of Franciscan's Catechetics program.

History of the Sioux Center Public Library
In May 1926, a committee was formed by the Women's Club to look into the possibility of starting a library. The committee consisted of Dea De Ruyter (Mrs. George), Narine te Veltrup (Mrs. Ed), Agnes Te Paske (Mrs. A.), Esther Maris (Mrs. William), Florence Mouw (Mrs. P. B.). In September, 1927, the Woman's Club Library Committee, Dea De Ruyter, chairperson reported that arrangements had been made to open a library. On October 4, 1927, the Sioux Center Public Library began in the Domestic Science room of the public high school, (also used as a lunch room). The school at that time was located on the site where the former Community Center stood.
By January, 1928, the Library was open two afternoons a week, with Cressie De Bruyn (Mrs. William) in charge. The book collection consisted of 83 books, some donated and some purchased with Woman's Club funds. Operating capital was $200.00. This was the beginning, and the arrangement continued for nearly two years.
A lot with a small house adjacent to the American Legion property was offered for sale. The Legion, under Commander Ed te Veltrup, raised the $900.00 necessary to purchase the property and on May 18, 1929, the building (rent free) was offered to the library and the move was made in the summer of 1929. A partition was removed to create an L shaped library room, and another small room was used as a work and storage space. A coal heating stove provided heat, and the lean-to-kitchen became the coal bin. During the coldest weather, the building became warm about closing time. This was the library location for 17 years.
When the library first began, the staff consisted mainly of volunteers. Narine te Veltrup was responsible for the over-all management. Many of the community's young people donated their services as librarians and assistants. Library patronage and the book collection grew at a slow but steady pace, and on July 26, 1935, a Library Board of Trustees was formed. Members were Chairperson – Mrs. Ed te Veltrup, Secretary – Miss Arta De Vries, Treasurer – P. B. Mouw, Mrs. George De Ruyter, Jake De Ruyter, Mrs. William Maris, and Mrs. A. Te Paske. Their first order of business was to ask the City Council for $300.00 a year from the tax levy. On October 19, 1935, Clarine De Vries was appointed as the first official librarian at a salary of $.25 per hour for approximately 30 hours per month.
At the May 13, 1940 Library Board Meeting the Board voted to pay the Legion $25.00 a month in rent. A committee was named to purchase a wedding gift for the librarian, Clarine, who became Mrs. Joe Wandscheer. It is interesting to note that the yearly budget at this time was $435.94.
In 1946, the library facilities were no longer adequate for the increase in circulation and the growing book collection. The American Legion wanted to tear down the old building and clear the land. The basement of the First National Bank was secured at a rent of $30.00 per month to house the library. The Women's Club continued to sponsor the library and raised $600.00 toward decorating and equipping the new area for the library. The effort won the Club first prize in a contest for "Contribution to Community Cultural Development" sponsored by the State Federation of Women's Clubs. The award was an original painting by an Iowa artist and was presented to the club delegate at the State Convention in Des Moines. The delegate remembered changing trains with a suitcase in one hand the painting in the other and the wind storm using the painting as a sail to push her in the wrong direction.
When the move to the bank basement was completed in 1946, the Library Board asked the City Council for an increase in funding for the library. Mrs. Henry De Mots was hired as the librarian at a salary of $.25 per hour, later raised to $.75 per hour. Most of her salary was returned to the library in the form of new books or equipment.
In March of 1954, the Woman's Club relinquished its control participation in the running of the library, and it became a municipal project. A new Board of Trustees was appointed in accordance with municipal regulations. The Library joined the State Traveling Library and received a part of a state rotating collection of from 70 to 100 books that were kept for three months. In July of 1954, the Library Board asked the city for $2,500.00 per year for operating expenses and in 1955, asked for the full operating levy.
The library outgrew their space and in 1960, when the municipal building was remodeled, requested space in the city offices. The former auditorium and stage were converted to a large library room and work area. June 5, 1961, the library moved into the new quarters.
In 1963, a county library organization was formed and county tax money became available for serving rural patrons. 1965 saw the formation of three reading groups and a projector and expanded film and record collection were purchased. An outreach program for seniors was added to the library services. The first collection of large print books was purchased.
By January, 1967, the library was again in need of larger facilities and serious consideration was given to build a building. The city manager, Arie Verrips, was on the State Library Board and was pleased to announce to the Woman's Club that Sioux Center had been granted $80,000.00 through the State Library, to be matched by local funds, for the express purpose of construction.
On September 5 and 6, 1969, a beautiful library had been erected on property a block east of the municipal building. The library was remodeled and expanded to 12,000 square feet in 1989, to add additional space for shelving and to add the elevator to make the basement meeting rooms handicapped accessible. The 1969 building was destroyed by fire on July 23, 2003. At that time, the Library Board had been discussing the need for more space and was in the process of looking for ways to add on to the current building.
From August 2003 until August 2008, the library was located in the gymnasium of the former community center. Because of losses from the fire, the library received numerous donations of books and shelving from Sioux Center, the surrounding communities, and other libraries across the state.
2007- present
Construction began on the new building in July of 2007, just north of the gymnasium location, which has now been transformed into the current parking lot. The library began operations in the new building in August of 2008.
The current building provides 20,000 square feet of space for library operations and services, meeting rooms, a computer lab, art gallery, and rental space. The architectural style of the building is strongly influenced by Frank Lloyd Wright's "Prairie School" design. The interior decor is intentionally warm, with a significant amount of wood trim and a fireplace. There are 233 windows in the building to provide natural light and a visual link to the surrounding environment.
It is our goal to provide a new "community center" that offers a welcoming space to individuals and groups for library services and resources, cultural activities, civic and community events, and more.
From 1927 until today, the library has grown from 83 items to over 80,000 items and a greater variety of services and other materials. We're proud to say that in more than 80 years of operations, our main goal of providing excellent service, access to information, books, and other materials to the community is still being met.

Craft Winter Leg Warmers $44.95
Reviews & Community
What do you think of the
Craft Winter Leg Warmers
? Share a...
Good down to the 30's
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I will wear these down into the mid 30's assuming the wind is not crazy. Once the windchill goes under 30 i will switch to the big guns but they they also have good range. I can wear these into the 50's and have no issues. I will say that if you are racing in them and its over 40-45 degrees you will get very warm and i would suggest a knee only warmer.
Can you tell me what the "big guns" are? I have the same issue but dont have a product that does well under 30 and I'm curious to find one.
For the "big guns" i use my normal bibs, these tights, and an additional pant length tights from pearl izumi ( i think its the elite barrier). That is good to single digits but will be very hot if its over 30. I will also just use the pearl izumi pant tights over my bibs and they are really warm too. I have had bad luck with bib tights, the gore ones i own are very nice but you are still cold once it goes below 30-35. I like the pant length tights because i can remove them easily during a ride if it warms up and put them back on if need be.
Great leg warmers
Overall I give these high ratings. I dont know if I would call these winter leg warmers but they keep me toasty into the mid to upper 40's range. Ankle zips would be nice.

Discover More Ideas You'll Need
Black Iron Bell Pendant Lamp
Great Center Piece
We recently remodeled our kitchen, and wanted a fun, slightly industrial, light fixture to go above our sink. When we came across this light, we knew it'd be a great fit. It is bold, and bigger than a typical "above-the-sink" light. The gold is super subtle and really sets the fixture apart from others like it. It completed our kitchen, and added something unique to the room!
*On a side note, you do have to buy a light kit to go along with the fixture. We searched the store and found a box sitting out that we thought was the product we needed. We were charged for one light kit, and then went home to find that the box was actually the shipping box the light kits came in! There were twelve light kits inside of it...Not too smart on the employee's part, but we did take the remainders back to the store! Too funny!

Oh god I cant believe my account is still alive.
After all these years, *sniff*
I wonder how many old friends are still here, no doubt most had moved on.
Well at least I see ol'Ganon is still here. Its been 4 years since I last logged back in, remember the 'people I hate' list you had here back when you're 18? Good times.
Great to see the forum is still alive and getting new blood, I see a lot of people here joined around 201X. Forums rises and dies in clycles, glad this one still havent gotten the end of it.
Looking back, this forum is my first ever internet community, discovered PPGD via the Newgrounds Flash Game, come to this site and it all goes down hill from there.
We all been through that stage, joining some shitty forum RP with everyone god-moding, creating mary-sue OC with cringe worthy back story, illegible power puffs complete with technicolor hair, stupid ass keyblades and too many cross-species ancestry for their own good, showing off half assed art work and enjoy the non-constructive praises, showing off signature creating with amateur photoshopping, joining heated but pointless argument before trolling was even a thing.
And to think that through all those immature faggotry, PPGD is the inspiration that sets me into what I am today, even if I moved on, the time here sparked my interest of telling a story, the petty desire to show off pretty avatar and competing on amateur art thread leads me into artistic pursue that sets off my entire career.
Though it is long overdue, thank you Bleedman, and the old fags that are still here,
and to the guy who dominates the art section pre-2008 with his long series of shitty PPGD inspired webcomic with his nonsensical OC with weird hair, red headband, green overcoat, a sword, and whose name eludes me after all these years.
Boy now I felt old, I wonder how much community had grown up since I left, gotta check the RP and art thread later to see if whether or not those 15 years old faggotry are still prevalent.

Butler, President of Columbia. THE MOUNTAIN WHITES THE LURE At Senior Reception A very clever skit, entitled "The Lure, or Why Girls Come to College," was given at the Senior-Freshman reception on Sat- urday evening. The plot in brief synopsis is as follows: a board of sub-Freshmen (M. Marian, A. Hornberger, C. Sutch. M Free) are In search of a college. First, they see Wellesley, with its famous new (M. Morgan. K. Freer, A. Brown. .1. Dam ing, E. Pugh. i: Smith. K. MeCollin. M. Goodhue). Then they see the joys of life at Smith, Hanked by Williams and Am heist; coy Smith maidens (11. Bradford, R. Hopkinson. I. Smith, A. Humphrey) ent�rtail) college men (K Dessau, A. Scudder, F. Matron, ('. Taber, H. Kverett, D. Moore), who sing to them the classics, "The only Thing for Speeds to Do," and "English." Next, life at Radcllffe is viewed^, where Frivolity (D. Perkins) tries In vain to dance her way Into the hearts of the grinds (I. Foster, M. Bradway, M. Chamberlain, K Snodgrass, A. Bur- chard, A. Martin). But the Football Tro- phy, from Yale, 4S1B A. D; the Debating Cup, from Harvard Law, 2116 A. D.J the New Organ and other features win them to Bryn Mawr. where "you can't get around the faculty." The performance was witty and ably executed. The first of a series of meetings under the auspices of the Mission Study Com- mittee was held on Wednesday, October 1 Itli Miss Patsy Bratton spoke of the work among the mountain whites in Ken- tucky She look up her work in Canoe. Ky.. a year ago last January Her predecessor in the position had been stabbed by the intoxicated meii of the village. Her first co-worker was very nervous, anil after a few months had to leave, worn out by the strain; her second staved only a few �reeks; the third, the most efficient help she had had. was taken with smallpox They conducted a day school and Sunday school, both of which were attended by grown men as well as children. AJ soon as the men were under the Influence of liquor, they would begin tO fight, and Miss Bratton was more than once called to step in between drawn knifes The su perintendent of the district came 10 Canoe tO conduct revival services, For a wnk they were unable to see any results of their meetings and prayers, but at the last meeting one after the other the worst men of the village came to the front and accepted Christ. When Miss Illation went home from that meeting she found a pledge signed by 1'I men, saying tbat.no more liquor -l.ouid '<* sold In ('untie. From that time on Canoe was a different village, and yet there Is still a great deal of work to be done there. The people are ignorant, poor, and often sick. They need shoes, clothes, white rags for bandages, and, la tact, they can make use of almost anything. Junk is sending them some of these things, but many- more are desired' Some Bryn Mawr students have thought that they.might like to go there to work during the sum .....r For further information, see Laura Branson, or write to Miss Bratton at Canoe. Undergraduates Take Action The Undergraduate Association sent a committee last week to talk with Presi- dent Thomas about the new faculty rule concerning attendance at lectures. The committee was instructed by direct vote of the Association to,express the agreement of the undergraduates in the necessity for some sort of cut rule, but to register the proles', of the students against the se verily of the present rule. The commit- tee asked tin a modification Of the sys- tem: that a student might he allowed at many free cuts a semester as she had hours of academic work a week and that" the penalty incurred for overcutting might be a deterred examination for every lecture missed beyond the number of "free cuts," the subject of the exami- nations tO be determined by the office The undergraduates tell thai a rule which allowed them no free cuts" was a pretty severe one, and thai the lowering of grades for non-attendance at lectures was hound to make those grades R mis representation of academic work and standing. President Thomas lold the committee thai the point of view of the faculty was directly opposed to thai of the Under- graduates and thai the faculty could grant no unexcused cuts whatever, She expressed tbe wish thai she herself might present the faeull> side r.f Hie QUCStlon to the students, The Undergraduate As- sociation,'therefore, has Invited President Thomas to speak at a mas- meeting called for the discussion of Hie Mile in re- gard to attendance at lectures.

The US military has now put Assange and WikiLeaks in the same legal category as the al-Qaeda terrorist network and the Taliban, Fairfax reports.
Declassified US Air Force counter-intelligence documents revealed military personnel who contact WikiLeaks or WikiLeaks supporters may be at risk of being charged with "communicating with the enemy", a military crime that carries a maximum sentence of death.

Anna Ardin Twitter account reveals conspiracy!
It is not good that Julian Assange be extradited to Sweden. It does not wait for justice without law decay. I can as European Lawyer with over 20 years of practical experience in Sweden confirm. Shortly before Anna Ardin police reported Assange of rape that would have occurred during the night from 14 to 15 August 2010 in Sweden ruined her micro-blogging on Twitter. Although the cache on her tweets have been removed by a conspiratorial hands. But some genius has yet succeeded in restoring her tweets:
August 14, she writes at. 14.00:
Julian wants to go to a crayfish party, someone who has a few seats available tonight electricity tomorrow? # fb

At. 02:00 on the morning of 15 Aug, ie after the alleged rape, she writes:

Greenwald wrote:Greenwald wrote:The evidence that the US seeks to prosecute and extradite Assange is substantial. There is no question that the Obama justice department has convened an active grand jury to investigate whether WikiLeaks violated the draconian Espionage Act of 1917. Key senators from President Obama's party, including Senate intelligence committee chairwoman Dianne Feinstein, have publicly called for his prosecution under that statute. A leaked email from the security firm Stratfor – hardly a dispositive source, but still probative – indicated that a sealed indictment has already been obtained against him. Prominent American figures in both parties have demanded Assange's lifelong imprisonment, called him a terrorist, and even advocated his assassination.

Tuesday 28th February 2012 18:30 GMT
Confidential emails obtained from the US private intelligence firm Stratfor show that the United States Government has had a secret indictment against WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange for more than 12 months.
Fred Burton, Stratfor's Vice-President for Counterterrorism and Corporate Security, is a former Deputy Chief of the Department of State's (DoS) counterterrorism division for the Diplomatic Security Service (DSS).
In early 2011, Burton revealed in internal Stratfor correspondence that a secret Grand Jury had already issued a sealed indictment for Assange: "Not for Pub — We have a sealed indictment on Assange. Pls protect." (375123) According to Burton: "Assange is going to make a nice bride in prison. Screw the terrorist. He'll be eating cat food forever." (1056988) A few weeks earlier, following Julian Assange's release from a London jail, where he had been remanded as a result of a Swedish prosecutor's arrest warrant, Fred Burton told SkyNews: "extradition [to the US is] more and more likely". (373862).
Emails from Fred Burton reveal that the US Government employs the same counterterrorism strategy against Julian Assange and WikiLeaks as against Al Qaeda: "Take down the money. Go after his infrastructure. The tools we are using to nail and de-construct Wiki are the same tools used to dismantle and track aQ [Al Qaeda]. Thank Cheney & 43 [former US President George W. Bush]. Big Brother owns his liberal terrorist arse." (1067796)
Ten days after the CIA reportedly assassinated Osama bin Laden, Burton writes in an email sent to Stratfor's "Secure" mailing list that he "can get access to the materials seized from the OBL [Osama bin Laden] safe house." (1660854)
Burton states: "Ferreting out [Julian Assange's] confederates is also key. Find out what other disgruntled rogues inside the tent or outside [sic]. Pile on. Move him from country to country to face various charges for the next 25 years. But, seize everything he and his family own, to include every person linked to Wiki." (1056763)
Along with the FBI, the Diplomatic Security Service and the Department of Defense (DoD) form a multi-agency US Government outfit seeking to criminally indict and prosecute WikiLeaks and Julian Assange. According to the Department of State, the DSS handles the investigation of all leads that involve the DoS and assists the DoD in forensic analysis of hard drives seized by the US Government in its ongoing criminal investigation.
Burton also says he "would pursue [c]onspiracy and [p]olitical [t]errorism charges and declassify the death of a source someone which [he] could link to Wiki" (1074383). Burton's strategy is to: "[b]ankrupt the arsehole first," Burton states, "ruin his life. Give him 7-12 yrs for conspiracy." (1057220)
WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said: "For over a year now, the US Attorney General Eric Holder has been conducting a "secret" Grand Jury investigation into WikiLeaks. This neo-McCarthyist witch hunt against WikiLeaks may be Mr Holder's defining legacy. Any student of American history knows that secret justice is no justice at all. Justice must be seen to be done. Legitimate authority arises out of the informed consent of the governed, not Eric Holder's press secretary. Secret Grand Juries with secret indictments are apparently Eric Holder's preferred method of dealing with publishers who hold his administration to account. Eric Holder has betrayed the legacy of Madison and Jefferson. He should drop the case or resign. Should he continue, however, the Obama administration may not — Democrats and Republicans alike believe in the right to tell the truth."
As early as June 2010, after the release of the Collateral Murder video but prior to the Afghan War Diaries release, the emails talk of a sealed indictment. In an email conversation between Shane Harris, a National Security journalist, and Burton, Harris is surprised that Assange was reporteded to be attending a Las Vegas Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) conference. Burton remarks: "As a foreign national, we could revoke [Julian Assange's] travel status and deport. Could also be taken into custody as a material witness. We COULD have a sealed indictment and lock him up. Depends upon how far along the military case is" (391504). Julian Assange cancelled his appearance at the IRE conference due to security concerns.
In another email to Stephen Feldhaus, Stratfor legal counsel, about Ronald Kessler, a "pro-FBI journalist", Burton remarks: "I look forward to Manning and Assange facing a bajillion-thousand counts [of espionage]." (1035283)
In July 2010 alleged WikiLeaks source Bradley Manning was moved from Camp Arifjan, Kuwait to the Quantico Brig in the Military District of Washington at the request of Maj. Gen. Terry Wolff, then Commanding General of the 1st Armored Division/US Division – Center in Iraq.
Wolff requested Manning's move, the Pentagon reported, "due to a potentially lengthy pre-trial confinement because of the complexity of the charges and an ongoing investigation." Three days before Manning arrived at Quantico Brig, Burton wrote to George Friedman, Stratfor CEO and founder:
"We probably asked the ASIS [Australian Secret Intelligence Service] to monitor Wiki coms and email, after the soldier from Potomac was nabbed. So, it's reasonable to assume we probably already know who has done it. The delay could be figuring out how to declassify and use the Aussie intel on Wiki... The owner [Julian Assange] is a peacenik. He needs his head dunked in a full toilet bowl at Gitmo."

The Gossen Digisix, a digital exposure meter for ambient light made in Germany by Gossen, is a vicious competitor for the 'tiny available light' segment of meters. Measuring is easy: The EV value is measured and indicated in the digital display and then transfered to the setting ring. All the useful shutter speed and f/stop combinations can be read at a glance.
The meter also sports some useful accessory features: a timer function for measuring from 0 seconds to 30 minutes, a watch (adjustabled for both 12 or 24 hour display) and an ambient temperature thermometer (which can be set for either Celsius or Fahrenheit). The lowlight sensitivity of the Digisix allows meaningful measurements in twilight and beyond, a new watershed for such a tiny unit.
Optional accessories, the Camera Adapter Clip(catalog #V069A) as well as the Bogen 3298, allow attachment of the DigiSix directly to the top of your camera's flash shoe.

Skull-Boy was lazy this year. Hell, Psycho Kid just found a fish and threw on a cloak. LDG was really the only one who actually put some effort into her costume.
This was going to be my only extra thing for Skull-Boy's Halloween special, but I'm also throwing together an extra page for the comic. It's not a Halloween specific page, because I want to keep the continuity of what's happening, but I feel it's more appropriate for this week.
So, hang tight, this week's page is coming in just a few hours, I need to finish backgrounds for the panels more then anything, everything else is pretty much finished.

I'm still not 100% on board with the teeth myself, though they are growing on me for two reasons. 1- i think its the source of much scorn for the poor girl and how she comes to be called Rabbit. and 2- its the kind of awkward body tick she eventually grows out of. well that and i'm sick of 'perfectly pretty' heroins (which is a bad habit of mine).

Fair Trade Certified™ Cafè Estima Blend® Portion Packs
Velvety smooth and balanced with the sweet flavor of dark roast, this blend of coffees from Latin America and East Africa is the product of the relationships formed between Starbucks and small-scale coffee farmers. As one of the largest purchasers of Fair Trade Certified™ coffee, Starbucks is committed to paying fair prices to help give farming families a better life and ensure coffee farms are protected for the future.
Designed for use with standard coffee makers, 18 individual 2.5-oz portion packs per box.
A Better Cup
We're committed to ethically sourcing and roasting the highest-quality arabica coffee in the world. When we buy coffee this way, it fosters a better future for farmers, and a more stable climate for the planet. It also helps create a long-term supply of the high-quality beans we've been carefully blending, roasting and packing fresh for more than 40 years.
Full-Bodied & Bold
Each convenient portion pack is pre-measured to brew one pot of coffee, approximately 50-64 fl oz depending on the desired strength. One portion pack is filled with 2.5 oz of ground coffee. There are 18 portion packs per box.
Each coffee requires slightly different amounts of time and temperature during the roasting process to create a cup at its peak of aroma, acidity, body and flavor. We classify our coffees in three roast profiles so you can easily find your desired flavor and intensity.
- Blonde: Blonde-roasted coffees have a shorter roast time, lighter body and mellow flavors.
- Medium: Medium-roasted coffees are balanced with smooth and rich flavors.
- Dark: Dark-roasted coffees feature a fuller body and robust, bold flavors.

Belfaire on community policing and GM subjectivity
As you may recall, a few days ago, I wrote a little Dear Blizzard letter on the subject of enforcing the RP and Naming Policy. Of course, Once one writes a letter to someone, it is a good idea to deliver it, and thus I delivered it, or at least the issues therein, over on the Customer Service Forum. I was lucky enough to have Belfaire, who you may remember from his post explaining Blizzard's stance on multi-boxing, answer some of my questions and concerns. I also got some pretty well thought out feedback from a couple other people browsing the forums, including some roleplayers who disagreed with some of my points, so I think the threads worth a read in itself, and I'll comment a bit more on what Belfaire said after the break, now that I've had time to digest it a bit.

Although there are loads of new games coming out, you can't beat a game of good old sonic. The only down sides are the graphics, they're not excactly wonderful. Dont let this put you off its a fun game and can have you hooked for hours trying to complete one level!!!

How do you perceive states that you have never visited?
For instance.....
I see New Jersey as a state covered in asphalt and concrete. A state where school children are bussed to museums to see and touch real grass and trees.
I see Utah as a giant sandbox for adult males to use their ATVs, 4x4s and dirtbikes.
I see Mississippi as a state completely covered in kudzu with alligators underneath.
Here are the rules: You cannot use the words snow or cold or blizzard or freezing when referring to Minnesota.

2014 KTM 450 XC-W — Contact Dealer for Pricing
2014 ›› KTM ›› Motorcycle ›› Enduro ›› 450-XC-W ››
View Other Models:
Ext. Color:
THE BENCHMARKThe 450 XC-W is one of the most powerful enduro machines of its class. Combining low weight and high displacement, high-tech SOHC 4-stroke technology is the right choice for all who are looking for maximum performance, combined with playful handling.
Developed for tough enduro racing, the SOHC engine with 449.3cc is distinguished by an extremely compact design, easy maintenance and an excellent durability at a minimal weight. Together with the Keihin EFI system, they provide unrivaled enduro specific performance and rideability.
For 2014, the lightweight, forged bridged box-type piston has received the high-performance piston rings of the 450 SX-F.
In order to balance the mass-forces, the engine uses a counter balance shaft which doubles as a water pump drive.
The crankshaft with a stroke of 63.4 mm and ultra-lightweight con rods are made by Pankl from special, high-tensile strength steel. They have a plain bearing in the big end. The previous needle bearing is replaced with two force-fitted XCF-W shells that run directly on the crank pin. This design enhances the engine's durability, allowing to lengthen the crankshaft service interval.
The cylinder head is equipped with a single overhead camshaft which has been lightened by 10 percent for 2014. It activates two titanium intake valves and two steel exhaust valves. The weight optimized valve train leads to lower friction for improved performance as well as less engine braking action. Also, an optimized cylinder head gasket now guarantees increased durability in extreme conditions. The automatic decompression mechanism has also been strengthened to further optimize durability.
The Engine Management System (EMS) by Keihin with electronic fuel injection and 42mm throttle body ensures a spontaneous response and maximum engine performance. An oil-cooled 196 W AC alternator provides sufficient energy for the fuel injection, lighting and other electrical loads. With an optional map-select switch from the KTM PowerParts program, EMS allows selecting different engine characteristics. In additon, the optional User-Setting Tool allows to readout engine data with a laptop and change the ignition and injection mappings with a few mouse clicks.
Optimized for 2014, the single-piece basket of the DDS (Damped Diaphragm Steel) clutch is machined from solid high-tensile steel in one piece together with the primary drive gear. This process guarantees unbeatable reliability and contributes to the narrow engine width due to its compact rivet-less design. Additionally, this construction allows the use of thin steel linings which also contribute to the compact clutch dimensions. The diaphragm spring makes it possible to implement an additional rubber damping system inside the clutch hub, guaranteeing reliability for the transmission and good traction. In addition, a stronger inner hub further increases stability. Finally, the hydraulic clutch mechanism by Brembo in conjunction with the diaphragm spring guarantees a very light operation and good controllable modulation of the clutch.
The modern and lightweight frame design made of high-strength chromoly steel sections combines maximum longitudinal stiffness with optimum torsional ridigty. It guarantees easy handling and precise cornering, but also outstanding stability. In 2014, the frame of the 4-stroke weighs even less thanks to thinner walled down tubes. In addition, the braces that connect the cylinder head were optimized. This means all new frames not only have a striking new color but also set the clear benchmark with respect to weight and stability.

This is my best qualifying for the team which is good, but of course you always want to be on pole. I don't think it was better than expected; the car hasn't changed much from the first two races, but then the weather meant we didn't get the most from it. For sure there are still a few things we can improve, but the speed is there.
It's been quite a tricky weekend so far and we've had a few small issues with setup, but it's always difficult to get things exactly how you want them and the car has worked well when it matters. I've sometimes been happy with the car and sometimes not so much; in the end we ran with a similar setup to the one that worked best in Malaysia. It felt good in qualifying so hopefully it will be the same tomorrow.
We'll be running through the strategy tonight to see what will be the best plan. The tyres will of course be the question mark. A lot of people are complaining about them but I don't think they've changed so much from last year and it's the same for everybody. Some people are starting on the primes but I don't really care what the others do; we chose the strategy we think will work best. Hopefully we can keep managing the degradation well like we have so far this season and have a good race tomorrow.
We're starting from a good position, but is it going to be enough to push for first place tomorrow? It's difficult to say. This year it seems things can change from one day to the next. Sometimes it can go your way and sometimes it doesn't, so we just have to do our best tomorrow and hopefully we'll have the speed to challenge for the win.
