I had a breast reduction about 2.5 years ago, when I was 17 years old. I unfortunately developed keloid scarring. I was wondering what the best way is to go about treating them. I've had some laser treatments and that definitely helped but they were very painful. I am considering kenalog injections and then possibly, when they have flattened, some cosmetic tattooing. Are these good ideas?
What Are the Best Treatments for Keloid Scars After Breast Reduction?
Doctor Answers 9
Breast Keloid/Hypertrophic Scar Management
Here are some guidelines to obtain the best scar improvement:
Scar Management tips:
- Minimize tension on the scar. Embrace scar dressing is the best as it lessens tension directly on the wound. Steri-Strips and/or surgical tape are often placed in non-hair bearing areas to minimize tension and keep pressure over the scar. This minimizes the stress that can pull the scar apart (dehiscence) creating a wound and delaying healing time, and can make the scar wider, or more "ropy".
- Keep your incision site/scar clean to prevent infection. Follow your surgeon's wound care instructions to the letter with out modification. Never apply different products then recommended without first discussing them with your surgeon. This is especially important during the first few weeks. If there are any signs of infection, contact your surgeon's office right away and/or see your doctor or his nurse immediately. Typical signs of infection may include redness outside the immediate incision site, asymmetric swelling, and drainage, of pus, fever, chills, and "feeling sick".
- Protect your scars from the sun. Staying out of the sun is the best advice. Minimal exposure to sunlight is preventshyperpigmentation (permanently turning brown) and other problems that can make the scar more noticeable. Sunscreen, at least 30 SPF and an overlying make camouflage make up additionally protects the scar from the suns harmful rays. This advice is especially important the first year following your surgery.
- Use specific scar maturation products recommended by your surgeon. Patients seem to have their own opinions on this touting everything from Pure Vit E, Coco butter, to Aloe Vera, etc but most have minimal benefit other than keeping the scar hydrated. Although hydration is important there are better, scientifically studied products with greater efficacy. Most of the scientific articles written about this subject indicate that topical silicone gel or silicone sheets work the best. There are a lot of products to choose from, but silicone should be one of the key ingredients. Although Mederma, an onion extract derivative active ingredient rather than mainly silicone based may help, primarily silicone based products are better and many also contain other ingredients that may be synergistic (hydrocortisone or other steroid, Vitamin E, Sunscreen,etc). At the present time I prefer BioCorneum or Kelo-Cote products especially on areas that silicone strips aren't applicable, for example, on the face. If the reader has problems obtaining these they can call my office. Patient compliance is also critical – use often and according to directions or it will not work optimally. NEVER apply products without first discussing them with your surgeon.
- Monitor to make sure your scar is progressing optimally. Keep your scheduled follow-up appointments with your surgeon to verify that your scars are maturing as expected. Occasionally if indicated you may need a topical steroid preparation or even a series of injections (5-FU and/or Steroids) or laser treatments to treat or prevent scar hypertrophy or keloid formation (red raised scars), or other topical medicines to treat post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (brown scars) with prescription creams and possible laser treatments.

Hypertrophic scars following breast reduction in a 17 year old
As you have read from the other plastic surgeon respondents, the scars that you have are hypertrophic ones rather than keloids. This is relatively good news as hypertrophic scars are more easily treated as compared to keloids which can be quite difficult to eradicate.
At your age, hypertrophic scars are not uncommon with breast reduction surgery. Given you photos and history, my recommendation would be to surgically remove the thicker and wider areas, meticulously repair the wounds with longer acting dissolvable sutures, inject them with a very low dose steroid, protect them for a few weeks with surgical tapes and them start with silicone gel sheeting for at least several months. Certain physical activities that could exert distracting forces on the wounds (pulling apart) should be avoided.

Hypertrophic Scars Following Breast Reduction
You have hypertrophic breast scars, not keloid scars. These do seem to occur more commonly in younger patients, and the alignment of the skin edges, wound tension, and suture material used may also play a role. It appears that some areas have improved after your laser treatments and are now flatter, but remain widened. Additional laser treatments and steroid injections may help to soften and flatten the residual areas of hypertrophy. You will be left with wide scars following these procedures, and they may have a pink coloration. Sometimes additional IPL or laser treatments can lighten this pink color.
If your goal is to try to remove as much of this scarring as possible then you will need to consider surgical scar excision. The subsequent healing may be improved since this revision will likely involve less tension across the skin closure, and care can be taken to realign the skin edges well. Post-op taping and silicone gel sheeting may provide some additional benefits. When it comes to scar revisions, there are no guarantees that unsatisfactory scarring won't occur, but I suspect that you will have a better result.
I would not recommend cosmetic tattooing of these scars. The thin scars may not take the pigment well, and more importantly it is impossible to match the skin coloration well with tattoo pigments. Skin coloration constantly changes and there is not a good way to match this with (even multiple) tattoo pigments that will always be the same color.
Best wishes, Kenneth Dembny MD
Breast reduction scars and improving scars on the breast
I would begin treatment for your breast scar keloids with pulsed dye laser and judicious IIT therapy. These scars will improve.

Options for hypertrophic scars after breast reduction
Hopefully better options will be available in the future, but you have had the standard treatments with laser and steroid injection. Check out clinicaltrials.gov and search hypertrphic breast scars.
Best Treatments for Keloid Ssars After Breast Reduction?
Good News and Bad News.
You do NOT have Keloid scar (raised scars which overflow the margins of the original injury or surgical incision). These are MUCH harder to treat successfully.
Instead, you have a mix of widened (? result of Kenalog shots) and Hypertrophic (exaggerated, speed bump like) scars. Many of these can be made to look better by surgical excision, revision and meticulous closure with dissolving stitches in multiple layers minimizing tension at the skin surface. Additional treatment with scar modification (Silicone sheeting, Mederma, Vit E ) may also help the final appearance.
Good Luck.
Dr. Peter A Aldea
Keloid and Hypertrophic Scar treatment
Your scars are more accurately termed hypertrophic scars rather than keloids, although I doubt that distinction brings you any comfort! Many young breast reduction patients develop scars such as these. If you did not use silicone dressings during the healing process, you could consider excising the scar in the inframammary fold and keeping silicone on it during the healing process. If that worked well, you could try the same on the rest of your incisions. Steroid or fluorouracil injections could be tested in bad areas, and if they work well you could try similarly treating the rest of your scars

the Tennessee house Elvis Presley lived in before moving to Graceland has been sold for $905,100
The first home owned by Elvis Presley has been sold for $905,100 on the online auction service eBay. It's psychic Uri Geller and two partners who bought the Tennessee house of the King of Rock N Roll.
Revealing his intended meaning to buy the historical house, Geller said "We are unbelievably pleased. This is a piece of history. We intend to restore it to its old glory. We would like to bring sick children there (for tours), Palestinian children, Israeli children, American children. Hopefully one day we might get approval to turn it into a museum."

Solar panels to dot roof of home in Sewickley historic district
Solar panels might have little historic significance but soon, they'll dot the roof of one home in a historic Sewickley neighborhood.
Council members last month approved allowing homeowners Andy and Dorothy Falk to place solar panels on a portion of their home at 304 Henry Ave.
"Solar panels are not historic," borough Solicitor Richard Tucker said.
But there is no formal policy limiting the use of solar panels inside a historic district, Manager Kevin Flannery said.
"It's the first time solar panels have been proposed for a house in a historic district," he said. "No one thought about solar panels when they drew up historic guidelines."
Guidelines and requirements are listed for solar energy systems and related equipment, Flannery said. Based on borough ordinances, the homeowners have met all requirements, he said.
Solar panels will be on the roof facing an alleyway, Andy Falk said. An original plan called for panels to be placed facing Henry Avenue, but the borough's Historic Review Commission asked that the panels be relocated away from the street.
The home was built in 1910, according to Allegheny County real estate records.
Should borough leaders consider limiting solar panel use in a historic district, the Falks would be grandfathered in and wouldn't have to make changes to suit any new laws, council member Susan Aleshire said.
Across the country, California leads with the highest number of residential solar panel installations this year, according to the Washington-based Solar Energy Industries Association.
Pennsylvania ranks ninth.
The organization estimates that new solar electric capacity added in 2013 will generate enough electricity to power more than 960,000 homes.
The federal government and several states — including Pennsylvania — offer rebates for homeowners who install solar panels.
More than $2 million remains in Pennsylvania's rebate fund, according to the state Department of Environmental Protection. The rebate program is expected to end in December.
Council member Carole Ford said she hopes borough leaders consider looking into ordinances as the use of solar energy increases.
"We still need to look at policy for solar panels in historic district," she said.

Press Release
Kris and Lisanne most likely to have been involved in a fatal accident near the Pianista trail concludes a team of Forensic Specialists.
Amersfoort – March 34rd, 2015 – A team of forensic specialists, including members of the Dutch dog rescue team of the RHWW foundation together with the Panamanian authorities, travelled to Boquete Panama early January to conduct a final search on behalf of the Family of Kris Kremers. The mission, on behalf of both families and supported by the foundation Find Kris & Lisanne, was to retrieve as many remains as possible from both girls and if possible find answers to what happened to Kris and Lisanne.
The team of forensic specialists has – aside from the search for human remains – done a thorough and detailed analysis on the different scenarios which are considered most likely. The team consisting of members specialized in crime scene investigations and retrieving human remains have searched different areas with different valley's and different rivers all ending up in the same Culebra river. The same river and location where previously items and belongings to Kris & Lisanne where discovered. Due to the amount of time that has passed since their disappearance and the rapid rising and dropping of water-levels, the chances of ever uncovering more remains have become extremely limited. The fast flowing water takes everything down stream and refreshes the area regularly.
The team, assisted by locals and guides, has walked the pianist trail just like the parents of Kris did last August. These specialists are concluding and supporting the fact that losing your way on this particular trail is highly unlikely. "The area where this is supposed to have taken place, simply is not an area where you can get lost. Anyone who is suggesting the girls lost their way and claiming this to be an actual possibility, has simply never physically been on the trail itself." Says Frank van der Goot, teamleader during the search.
The team has done a thoroughly investigation regarding the scenario involving a possible crime. "The geographical conditions, social conditions and technical facts which have surfaced during the forensic investigation, suggest a crime such as a robbery, a sexual offence, an act of violence or a kidnapping highly unlikely."
The option which remains is a fatal accident possibly caused by an unfortunate crash. "Especially the last part of descending the Pianista trail seems to have all the geographical conditions to suggest this is in fact a possible cause. In the event of crashing down these slopes, the victim or victims will find themselves in one of the riverbeds which river ultimately leads to the Culebra river. Circumstances down the riverbeds are similar to those found on the pictures retrieved from the digital camera. A fatal crash is also a conclusion which can be supported by the results of the investigations on discovered remains."
The team of rescue dogs assisted by the Panamanian authorities have tried to reach the area where remains have been found in the passed. In spite of their best efforts, due to bad weather conditions they were unable to complete their search.
The search however did reveal new facts when one of the local people involved in the search, someone very familiar with the area, looked at the dark pictures retrieved from the digital camera found in the backpack. This opportunity was not given to him in the passed. He concluded that the the location where these pictures must have been taken are, in what later proved to be, the exact same area pointed out independently by the forensic specialists as "the location where a fatal accident could have occurred".
Although nothing can be said for certain based on the limited amount of clues and facts uncovered in the investigation, forensic specialists conclude Kris and Lisanne have most likely suffered a fatal accident where they have possibly crashed down a slope of which it was impossible to climb back up again without proper equipment. "Crashing down a slope in this area would have easily covered a difference in hight up to about 30 to 40 meters, which increases the chances of severe injuries. Aside from that, the riverbed is surrounded by waterfalls and steep cliffs of several meters in hight." This location has now been pointed out by different people including specialists, independently from each other and acting without any self-interest.
We have recently received confirmation by the Dutch Forensic Institute that the remains found in Panama are indeed remains belonging to Kris. We are now able to start arranging a funeral.
As a family we are very relieved that finally after all this time we have found a plausible explanation regarding all the questions we had surrounding the passing of our beloved daughter Kris.
We hereby want to give a huge thank you to all the people involved in getting answers for Kris and getting to the truth to what happened to Kris and Lisanne since their mysterious disappearance on April 1st of last year. We would not have been able to achieve these results if it hadn't been for all the dedication and commitment we received from so many people out there willing to stand beside us.

THE changing of the guard at ING Industrial Fund moved a step closer with Goodman Group pushing for a position at the front of the field by buying enough units to bump its holding to 7.09 per cent.
Goodman's adviser, Macquarie, managed the buying yesterday and on Tuesday night, paying up to 48¢ a unit for 71 million units. The likely seller was the Netherlands-based ING Real Estate (INGRE) group.
The Dutch group put the Australian ING Real Estate Asset Management business, run by Denis Hickey, on the market two months ago and is now reviewing expressions of interest from potential acquirers.
It's no secret that Greg Goodman covets management of the ING fund and has made a formal submission to INGRE's advisers at Morgan Stanley, bidding for the rights.
Sitting alongside Goodman in a joint submission is the unlisted Investa Property Group, which is keen on management rights to the ING Office funds.
But it's a competitive process and their desires could be thwarted, as it is believed that Mr Hickey and the local ING board, minus former chairman Richard Colless - who retired from the board abruptly two weeks ago - favour internalisation of the management rights.
That would keep Hickey in charge of the listed trusts - ING Office, ING Industrial, ING Entertainment and ING Retirement.
A foreigner or new local party, such as Goodman, is just as likely to delist the vehicles and reshuffle the assets.
Property observers said yesterday that there were other players that should not be discounted.
One questioned whether a US private equity fund, having been offered the management rights a couple of months ago by another international adviser closely aligned with Colless, could still come into the market and buy a stake in one of the trusts, using it as a lever to buy out the management rights.
Tough time for tolls
THE toll-road sector looks set to claim a third victim with RiverCity Motorway Group presenting its audited financial report ''on the basis that an orderly winding-up of the group could occur sometime after September 2011''.
Equity investors in Sydney's privately held Cross City and Lane Cove tunnels have already seen their investments wiped out. With traffic in Brisbane's Clem Jones Tunnel (CLEM7) running at only a third of initial projections, RiverCity is already in discussions with financiers as they search for an option that would allow the group to limp on in its current form until after Airport Link, an important feeder road for CLEM7, opens in mid-2012.
Investors are dubious that Airport Link will be enough to save RiverCity. Securities that were issued for $1 in 2006 closed yesterday at 1.5¢. In RiverCity's June accounts the value of future tolling rights on its 45-year concession was written down from $1.6 billion to a recoverable amount of just $258 million.
Oroton turnaround
THE Lane family can add a bungled selldown of the family interest in Oroton to an already patchy track record at the luxury goods retailer. Before current chief executive Sally Macdonald commenced a turnaround in September 2006, Oroton was led by Ross Lane and the company had a reputation for underperforming brands and dud acquisitions.
Recent developments saw Goldman Sachs sounding out institutional interest in an 8 cent line of the Lane family's Oroton shares at $7.80 a share. At the time, shares were changing hands at around $8.
The 20¢ discount wasn't enough to attract interest, but rather than cancelling the sale, the Lanes settled for a cut-price offering and the $25 million stake ultimately changing hands at just $7.20.
The institutions that picked up the stock are laughing. The selldown didn't cause the market indigestion, with shares bouncing straight back to close yesterday at $7.90.
Life line for iSoft
THERE was good news and bad when iSoft, the problem child of the healthcare IT sector, lodged its annual report.
On the positive side, the company has won the support of its bankers to restructure $188 million of drawn debt, despite generating just $41.5 million in EBITDA last financial year. With cashflow tight, they've also been granted additional breathing room in the form of a new £40 revolver facility.
With the additional debt capacity, iSoft should be able to get by without having to resort to the equity drawdown facility from YA Global that's been keeping the operation propped up - but the share price depressed through YA's relentless selling of newly issued shares - for the last few months.
However, the new debt arrangements come at a steep price. While iSoft has the option of capitalising interest on its senior debt, interest rates of around 12 per cent will apply until the company can afford to pay.
There's also a real disincentive to using the new revolver facility. The interest rate on that facility starts at around 12 per cent but ratchets up by 1.25 per cent every quarter from January 2011.
The high cost of debt has iSoft hunting around for any surplus assets that could be offloaded without damaging the core business. Discussions with potential purchasers are under way.

The Research Medical Library has developed a three-part program that can be integrated into an existing journal club or used to provide a starting point for a new journal club. The three sessions cover:
Creating the Question – Turning a clinical scenario into an answerable clinical question and using decision support research tools.
Finding the Evidence – Using the clinical question to search biomedical databases and locate the highest-level of evidence.
Appraising the Evidence – Applying appropriate appraisal tools to journals articles to uncover the quality of the study designs and the applicability of their findings in your field of research.
The librarians will tailor the content of these sessions to your discipline or research interests.
Librarian role:
The librarian will be responsible for leading the first two sessions. At the third session, facilitation and presentation of the information will be shared with the journal club leader. For further involvement, you may decide to choose one of these options:
- Embedded librarian – A librarian can attend each journal club meeting and provide "searching on the fly" to look up questions or uncover studies that are relevant to the discussion. The librarian can also search the clinical question identified the previous month to compare a librarian's approach to the search and provide feedback on search strategy.
- Search consultant – Each member of the journal club group may choose to set up an appointment with the librarian to assist with their search strategy when they are assigned to locate an article for the group to appraise.
Participation of group members:
All group members would rotate through process of:
- selecting a clinical scenario
- creating a clinical question
- presenting these to the group for discussion
- searching for evidence
- selecting a representative study
- presenting search strategy
- leading appraisal and discussion of the study for the group.
This entire process would take place over two months. In the first month, the individual (or team) would select a clinical scenario from their practice and then create a searchable clinical question using the PICO format. This question would be presented at journal club for feedback by group and recommendations for search strategies. The individual (or team) would then search for information and document their search strategy. They would select an article for the group to read and distribute it one week prior to the next journal club meeting. At the next journal club meeting the individual (or team) would present their search strategy and then lead the appraisal and discussion of the study and the implications on practice for the group.
This format creates a structure for appraising the literature and a focus towards the implications of new research on our practice and patients. It also ensures that at least two people have direct participation in the content for each journal club meeting and all have the responsibility to participate throughout the year.

Premier Dalton McGuinty says his government will comply with a ruling calling for the release of documents relating to his decision to cancel two power plant projects, but it's just a question of when.
The documents cannot be released until commercial negotiations aimed at reaching a settlement with one of the builders are complete, Mr. McGuinty said on Friday. Releasing the documents before then could compromise the negotiations and jeopardize taxpayers' interests by augmenting their costs, he said.
"For me, the issue is not whether we release this information," he told reporters. "It's when we release it."
Speaker Dave Levac ruled Thursday that there is evidence Energy Minister Chris Bentley breached his privileges by refusing to release the documents to a legislative committee. Mr. Bentley is facing a rare contempt of Parliament censure if he does not reveal all costs of the Liberals' mid-campaign decision last September to halt construction of a gas-fired electricity plant in Mississauga and the cancellation of another plant in Oakville a year earlier.
The government released some documents last July, revealing that pulling the plug on the Mississauga project, which was hotly opposed by residents, cost taxpayers $190-million. But it has not disclosed costs associated with canceling the equally unpopular power plant that was slated for Oakville.
The government is still in settlement talks with Calgary-based energy giant TransCanada Corp., which had the Oakville contract.
Mr. McGuinty wrote letters to both opposition parties on Friday, accusing them of being irresponsible for demanding that the documents be released immediately.
"I would like to express my disappointment over the insistence of Ontario's opposition parties to play politics with this sensitive issue," Mr. McGuinty says in the letters to Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak and New Democratic Party Leader Andrea Horwath.
Mr. McGuinty is calling on the opposition leaders to instruct their house leaders to respect the need for confidentiality until a settlement on the Oakville project is reached.
"There has been a breach of privilege, which I accept and respect," he told reporters. "But there are two public interests here that we've got to protect."
Mr. McGuinty said his understanding of the Speaker's ruling is that the documents do not have to be released by Sept. 24. Rather, he said, that is the deadline for all three house leaders to reach an accord on when the documents will be released.
The Speaker was asked to rule on the matter after Mr. Bentley refused to comply with a legislative committee's request last May for all government documents relating to the projects. The Speaker said the committee was "unquestionably" entitled to request the documents and the minister had an obligation to comply.
"I am therefore satisfied that a prima facie case of privilege has been established," the ruling says.
Tory House Leader Jim Wilson said Friday that the Liberals are "desperate" to hide the full cost associated with canceling the projects and insisted that the documents be released immediately.
"We believe the solution is simple – hit print and table the documents," Mr. Wilson said. "The Liberals obstructed the opposition at every turn" and the Sept. 24 time line just gives them "more squirming room to bury the facts."Report Typo/Error

The article, Kevin's comments, and some of the comments of his readers, make the absurd (and intellectually dishonest) connection between the Redneck Games and the SCV. Rather than have a knee-jerk reaction, I contacted the reporter who wrote the story and asked her if SCV Commander McMichael (who is a high school history and civics teacher and who also holds a Master's degree), was present at these games or if the SCV sponsored these games or had any connection of which she was aware. This was her reply:
"Mr. Williams, I have no information about the Redneck Games."
Interesting. Her article prominently features a photo of the event, but she has "no information about the Redneck Games." Anyone see a problem with that? I think most readers of that article would assume, as I did at first, that there was some connection between the SCV and the event. However, after reading the piece carefully and noting the date of the event pictured, I had my doubts. Kevin evidently opened wide and swallowed what the slanted piece was force-feeding readers as he wrote the following:
It wouldn't be a stretch to suggest that the SCV's emphasis on their multicultural heritage makes them the hippies of Confederate remembrance. Sadder yet is the reduction of Confederate history and symbolism to the kinds of games pictured above: bobbing for pigs feet, hub cap hurling and the Redneck mud pit belly flop contest. Yeah, I'm sure that's exactly how their Confederate ancestors hoped to be remembered. (Emphasis mine.)Excuse me? How do we make the leap from the SCV to the Redneck Games?!?! From everything I've read, there's no connection. None. Unless, of course, the article fits nicely into your agenda and presuppositions.
According to one source, the "Redneck Games" were . . .
Originally dubbed the Bubba-Olympics in 1995, the event is an outrageous, politically incorrect spoof of the real 1996 Olympics held in Atlanta. Country radio station WQZY started the games as a promotional stunt, garnering so much publicity that newspapers and television stations all over the country started covering them. Of the 10,000 folks who attend today, very few are true rednecks. Most are just faux rednecks that return to their mainstream lives come Monday morning. (Emphasis mine.)And, according to another source:
The games were started by General Manager for WQZY-FM "Y96"; Mac Davis in response to a comment made by the media; that when the 1996 Olympic Games went to Atlanta, it would be held by a group of rednecks. Taking offense to this, Mac Davis and some locals set up the annual Redneck Games to reinforce the stereotype the media held.(Pssst . . . the Redneck Games are a satire, a joke, a lampoon!)
And I'm sorry to have to disappoint Mr. Levin, but there's no SCV connection. Kevin and some of his readers have either been punked or knowingly promoted a falsehood. Will we see a correction? An apology? Anyone willing to do a little research on the games would discover they are mostly a tongue-in-cheek spoof of Southern culture, kind of a Hee-Haw like, self-disparaging festival of silliness. There's even a Canadian version of the Redneck Games. (I suppose the SCV has invaded our neighbors to the North and are, at this very moment, planning to subvert the Canadian government and make Canada part of Dixie. I think they flew in on black helicopters.) Fellow CW blogger Robert Moore also chimed in and made the same unsubstantiated connection:
It's also clear that McMichael and those who "herd" (yes, I'm using a metaphor that someone else frequently uses) under his brand of "Confederate remembrance" pick and choose from the greater heritage that is the Civil War South and repackage it as the total truth for ingestion by those who think the South and Southern heritage is about silly Confederate flag overcoats, hub hurling, and "the Redneck mud pit belly flop." Confederate veterans would be just tickled pink to know that they are remembered so respectfully (if the sarcasm isn't apparent in my comment, please interject it here, now). Just more evidence that the SCV has lost its way and continues to spiral downward. (Emphasis mine.)
"Evidence"? There is no SCV connection to "silly Confederate flag overcoats", etc. as the reporter admits and as the facts prove. You may, however, purchase a leather jacket version at the Museum of the Confederacy if that's what turns you on. So why the rush to make the connection between the Redneck Games and the SCV? Are some folks just lying in wait to pounce on the SCV? Do certain prejudices toward the organization predispose certain individuals to make unfounded assumptions and connections--albeit grossly misinformed ones--in order to malign and impugn all SCV members and which serves their broader agenda?
Then there is the straw man argument. I've addressed this particular notion before; that being the accusation that the SCV claims to speak for all Southerners. Of course, the only ones saying that are the Kevin Levins of the world. I don't know any SCV member that says that or believes it. Not one. I certainly don't. Kevin asks this question:
"How many people do you think Charles McMichael speaks for? My guess is that the number doesn't even appear on the radar screen."First of all, what's the point of the question? Mr. McMichael isn't claiming here to speak for anyone. In his official capacity, however, Mr. McMichael speaks for the Sons of Confederate Veterans which has approximiately 35,000 members. Furthermore, there are many, many thousands more Southerners who support the goals of the SCV, at least to some degree. Whether or not that qualifies for appearance on anyone's "radar screen" is subjective and a distraction to the subject.
Of course, we have to endure the prerequisite, snobbish comment of "Luckily, the reporter included an interview with a reputable historian." Right.
Like the good ole' boy pictured here at an actual Redneck Game event, I believe Kevin took a flying leap before looking and made a huge flop. Some folks just take some things way too seriously. Y'all need to lighten up a little bit. And y'all will have to excuse me now, as my supper of pig's feet and fried 'possum is awaiting my attention.
**Update: Kevin's posted an update after my response. In it he states:
At no point in my post did I make an explicit connection between the two, though I did offer a few passing comments on the image that the newspaper chose to include.That sounds like something a lawyer would say. Just read his post, the follow up comments by him and others and decide for yourself. Whether explicit or implicit, the intent in making the connection is abundantly clear. And I, too, appreciate all the attention.
**Update #2: After calling this response "weird", Kevin has removed the "boxed and highlighted" comments containing that characterization, along with the link to this post, from his original post on the subject.

Timeform, the respected British form/handicapping specialist, assesses America's Horse Of The Year Curlin as the best horse in the world in the Timeform Global Rankings.
Curlin is given a rating of 134, just ahead of Duke Of Marmalade, who is named the leading turf horse in the world following his two recent victories at Ascot in England, the latest being in the King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Eng-I) at the end of July.
Kieran Packman, the Timeform spokesman, commented: "Curlin narrowly gets Timeform's vote as the best horse in the world, on the evidence of his convincing victories in the Breeders' Cup Classic (gr. I) and the Dubai World Cup (UAE-I).
"With the recent announcement that his turf campaign is to be postponed, Curlin will take all the beating back on dirt at Saratoga in the Woodward Stakes (gr. I), his next intended target, at the end of August.
"Big Brown returned after an eight-week break at Monmouth Park last weekend and showed plenty of determination to win the Haskell Invitational (gr. I). Whether the much-anticipated meeting with Curlin ever takes place seems doubtful, but there's every chance that Big Brown will be right back at his best (132 recorded in his Kentucky Derby victory) with that run behind him and that would be good enough to make Curlin have to pull out all the stops."
Curlin and Big Brown are the only American-trained horses to make Timeform's top 20. The rest are from Britain, Ireland. France, Hong Kong, Australia, Japan and South Africa.
They include two horses who ran over the Aug. 7-9 weekend -- the unlucky Arlington Million (gr. IT) second Archipenko (127) and Marchand D'Or (127), winner of the Prix Maurice de Gheest (Fr-I for the third year in a row.
The Timeform list has the same global top three as issued by the World Rankings Supervisory Committee, compiled by the panel of handicappers/racing secretaries affiliated to the IFHA (International Federation of Horseracing Authorities). That list had Curlin at 130, Duke of Marmalade at 127, and Big Brown at 127.

Gold surged in heavy Wednesday trading as investors digested a new and tougher warning issued by the G7 nations to Russia over the crisis in Ukraine. Rising tensions over Russia's occupation of the Crimea region have boosted the metal's safe haven appeal.
In a statement, the G7 nations denounced Russia's "clear violation of the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine." The language signaled a hardening stance by European nations against the planned referendum on Crimea's secession from Ukraine, currently planned for Sunday. On Wednesday, the European Union reportedly agreed to a framework of possible economic sanctions against Russia that could be imposed if a diplomatic solution is not found soon.

A cutting-edge breast reconstruction surgery that uses tissue from a woman's own abdomen to build a new breast after a mastectomy could have a previously unrealized damaging side effect: muscle weakness.
The findings come from a new Canadian study published online Monday in CANCER, a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society.
"Regardless of whether a patient had complications after surgery or not … we saw that, universally, their abdomen was the one that really took a big hit," said the study's lead author Dr. Toni Zhong from the University of Toronto's University Health Network Breast Restoration Program.
Until now, surgeons believed the advanced microsurgery aimed at preserving the nerve and muscle lessened the chance women would experience loss of abdominal muscle function. Finding that is not always the case, Zhong said the study can help breast cancer patients and their surgeons better decide which reconstructive option is best for the patient.
The researchers surveyed 51 women between June 2009 and November 2010 undergoing breast reconstruction at the University of Toronto.
They looked only at women undergoing reconstruction that uses skin, fat and blood vessels — not muscle — from the abdominal region to build a new breast, called a DIEP flap or a muscle-sparing TRAM flap.
"We wanted to look specifically at the DIEP flap … because it is becoming an extremely popular choice among women, and there's a lot of public interest in it from our patients," said Zhong.
In the study, the first of its kind to look at the quality of life for breast cancer patients and the level of satisfaction with their new breasts after muscle-sparing breast reconstructive surgery, patients were surveyed on their psychosocial, sexual and physical well-being and their level of depression or anxiety.
The women answered the questions before surgery, at three weeks after surgery, and at three months after surgery.
The results found that, as early as three weeks after surgery, women were significantly more satisfied with their new breasts and experienced an improved quality of life. Even in the 11 patients who experienced complications after surgery, their satisfaction with the breast reconstruction was still high, the authors reported.
But Zhong said she was surprised to find that even during in the most careful attempts to remove tissue without disturbing muscle, patients sometimes experienced muscle weakness or a bulge that persisted even three months after surgery.
"It's not to the point that they're bed-ridden or can't do everyday activities, but they can feel a little more weak and not have the strength they used to have," said Zhong. "Some people are happy to put up with it and say it's the price that I paid in order to have such a great breast reconstruction."
But for active patients that notice the loss of muscle strength, it can be a problem, she said.
From her experience, Zhong said many patients do regain their abdominal strength through therapy, but a bulge could require more surgery to tighten the muscles.
Zhong said the study's findings change the way she, and other plastic surgeons, will present reconstructive options to women in the future.
"Prior to this, I think most plastic surgeons counsel women that you can expect decreased abdominal function for eight weeks, but after that you can get back to your normal life," said Zhong. "Now we're more cautious when we counsel women to have this surgery."
This study's results strayed from other findings that saw a deterioration of quality of life, psychological and social well-being after breast reconstruction.
However, the authors said it is likely because other studies looked at all different types of reconstruction, including the use of tissue expanders and implants which is a two-stage surgery process and takes longer to see the final results.
Zhong said she is working on an update for the study looking at the same patients' abdominal function after six months and one year after surgery.

As if the federal budget weren't opaque enough, lifting the veil on apparent cuts to the spy budget requires its own spy work.
After doubling their budgets since the Sept. 11 attacks, U.S. spy agencies appear for the first time to be facing cuts. The president's $52.6 billion request for national intelligence spending in the 2013 budget represents a 3.7% cut from the total amount spent in 2011.
But we can't yet draw comparisons to spy-agency spending for 2012, a year for which intelligence spending hasn't yet been made public.
Asked if the new budget proposes the first year of cuts for the intelligence agencies in a decade, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence couldn't provide a definitive answer. The reason: the 2012 budget figure remains classified until after the fiscal year ends in September.
In an October speech, Director of National Intelligence James Clapper strongly suggested that 2013 would mark the beginning of the end of growth in the spy budget. He said that he had just submitted a budget proposal calling for "double-digit" cuts, in the billions of dollars, over the next decade.
"We've experienced 10 years of growth – actually a fairly easy proposition, when you think about it, for the intelligence community, because every year all they had to do was hand out more money and more people," he said.
But that's not the whole intelligence budget.
Military intelligence has already faced some significant cuts from its height of $27 billion height in 2010. Last year, military intelligence spending fell to $24 billion, and the president's 2013 request calls for slashing it to $19.2 billion.
We won't learn 2012 military spending, either, until after the fiscal year ends this September.
Despite the secretiveness, these numbers represent a major step in the so-called transparency of the spy budget.
Prior to 2007, the intelligence agencies refused to disclose even their total spending numbers, citing national security. Under pressure from the Sept. 11 Commission, Congress required disclosure of the total annual spending.
All the details remain classified.

There wasn't a need for it VIII's story line... Maybe they don't need them. Probably if you play the game you might catch someone using one.
It's...a rather major part of early plot that there is no wireless communications.
Different advances in technology. In FF6 there were giant magic-powered machines but no cars. In FF7 there are mako reactors but no flying cars. In FF8 there are flying cars but no cellphones. That, or the satilite with Adel jams cellphone signals too.
For the same reason Aeris died from a cut nowhere near vital organs...it' s the plot, it's planned don't argue with it.
More to the point, why do there need to be cellphones? The game's about saving humanity from an ancient Sorceress, not texting Irvine about dinner or uploading your twitter page.
It's explicitly stated that wireless communications haven't been possible for nearly two decades (due to Adel's prison in space). Look up Radio Interference in the wiki for more information.
The person who said the Aeris thing, I wish there was a "like" button for that. I've been bothered by that for a long time now. (Especially the Aeris v.s. Aerith. It's freeking Aeris!)

text: In june 03 I was awarded CRSC rating of 50% for PTSD. I also received a 90% VA disability rating. I received a portion of my retirement pay tax free and all the VA pay non-taxable. Thiscontinued until the VA granted me a TDIU rating of 100% June 06 which in turn generated a CRSC rating of 100% which meant that I now received all my retirement and VA pay tax free. I was to receive the Temporary Individual Umployability until a decision was made by the VA on my request to increase my CRSC rating of 50%. The VA made a decision in Dec. 09 and granted me a 70% rating for PTSD. This 70% rating when added to other disabilities gave me an overall rating of 100% total and permanent. In January 2010 I received a letter requesting that I choose between CRSC and CRDP for my retirement pay. If I selected CRSC I would receive 70% of retired pay tax free and if I chose CRDP I would receive 100% of retirement pay but taxable. I opted for CRDP because it gave me all my retirment pay although taxable but still- a difference of about $1000 if I had selected CRSC. I just received an award letter a few days ago from the VA notifying me that a decision had been made and I was given a retroactive increased rating for my PTSD for 100% effective July 02. CRSC sent me a letter also notifying me that they had made a change to my PTSD rating and increased it to 100% effectivie June 03. Its time to file my taxes and I dont know quite what to do hence my use of this website. I tried to get DFAS to provide me a corrected 1099 for 2010 but no luck. The 1099r I have for 2010 states my retirement pay was taxable although it should not have been based on the decisions the VA and CRSC made retroactively changing the percentage for the PTSD and the dates. Do I file using the 1099 from DFAS and pay the tax on my retirement and then file as amendment using the VA and CRSC letters as justification for get taxes paid returned or am I at risk if I dont file the 2010 CRDP retirement pay I received . Does anyone have any similiar experiences? I want to do what is right and certainly stay away from any audits and penalities. DFAS would or could not help me the problem. Only have a few days to make the decision or file for an extenstion. Tks for any help.

Efforts by liquidators to pursue
It is understood a full hearing date for the NSW Supreme Court has been set for October 13 in what is expected to be the final chapter in a long-running process by One.Tel's liquidators to try and secure damages for creditors.
The legal fallout from the spectacular collapse of One.Tel has dragged on since 2001, when attempts by the former liquidator failed after a court ruled in favour of Mr Packer and Mr Murdoch due to the long time it took to present the case.
It is understood litigation has resumed with a pre-trial process that includes filing expert witness statements. Neither Mr Murdoch nor Mr Packer were available to comment.
A separate process is being run in tandem with the litigation to try and resolve the matter out of court, which may be a preferred option for creditors given the high degree of uncertainty with litigation. This could involve a compulsory mediation process under conditions set by the courts.
Mr Packer and Mr Murdoch, who invested heavily in the telco and sat on the board, have always maintained they were "profoundly misled" over One.Tel's finances.
The damages claims revolve around a decision by One.Tel's independent directors on May 29, 2001 to cancel a $132 million share issue only after Mr Packer, Mr Murdoch and other
Court case revives debate
The latest litigation will revive the debate about whether the share issue could have salvaged the company set up by entrepreneur
A NSW Supreme Court judge in 2011 dismissed a lawsuit against the wealthy families and Consolidated Press Holdings and Publishing and Broadcasting and the Murdoch's News Ltd.
In April, 2012, the NSW Court of Appeal rejected an appeal, arguing the then liquidator had failed to pursue the litigation with reasonable speed and diligence. One.Tel special purpose liquidator Paul Weston was removed from his role in June 2012 after a judge found he had lost the confidence of creditors led by SingTel Optus.
He was replaced by PBB chairman
The hearing date has not been made public before and the parties involved hope to conduct the litigation away from the publicity that dominated the 2001 collapse and the subsequent legal proceedings because of the high profile of the investors involved.
Liquidations can take a notoriously long time to play out, with processes involving Ansett, HIH Insurance and Duke Group stretching on, sometimes for decades.

Basic Information
Name: Hatake Kakashi
Nickname: Copy Ninja Kakashi, Kakashi of the Sharingan, Hero of the Sharingan
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Kakashi is a fair-skinned, fit and relatively tall shinobi. He has spiky white hair (silver in the anime), and has dark-coloured eyes. His left eye — which has since been replaced by a Sharingan — has a vertical scar running over it. It has yet to be revealed why Kakashi, even at a young age, wore his face mask. In the few instances that Kakashi is seen without his mask, it has been seen that he has a narrow jaw-line; in these instances the parts of his face normally covered by his mask are obstructed from view. In the anime, it is strongly suggested that he is in fact very handsome, as seen from Teuchi and Ayame's reaction to seeing his face. He was once mistaken by Chiyo for his father Sakumo Hatake, whom he greatly resembles, despite most of his face being obscured. Kakashi's personality is further emphasised by his generally lazy expression, aloof manner, relaxed voice, and minimalist attitude. In serious situations, however, he is shown to have a very stern and intense look. Another noticeable feature to Kakashi, other than his unique left eye, is the thin scar running over it and down to his cheek.
As a child, prior to obtaining his Sharingan, Kakashi wore a simple black outfit with the lower-half of his face concealed. He also wore a scarf with a simple design running along its length to the entrance ceremony, which he would later swap out for a plain, green one. As a genin, he wore another simple black outfit along with an open-front apron around his waist and fish-net armour around his ankles. During his early missions as a jōnin, he wore a black T-shirt with white stripes in the middle of the sleeves. On his arms he wears black sleeves with metal arm protectors over them. He also has leather straps around his back and chest, and his family's White Light Chakra Sabre is kept in a small holder out in the back. He also wore pants similar to the ones he wears today. He appears to wear the same type of outfit as a child. However, in another flashback he is shown wearing a sleeveless black shirt similar to one he sometimes wears as an adult. This type of shirt is presumably for casual wear. Later as a teenager, he wore black body suit with a variation of the wartime variant of Konoha's flack jacket prior to the Nine-Tails' Attack on Konoha.
Kakashi became more stern and serious after his father's death, following all the rules to the letter and chastising any who disobeyed them, like his team-mate Obito Uchiha. He was also very aloof and apathetic to others especially his team-mate Obito who was always late for their missions and would come in tow with a grand excuse. This caused Obito to resent Kakashi; the dynamics between the two would soon change after Obito was mortally wounded during the Third Shinobi World War, with Kakashi and Obito becoming closer friends after Rin was abducted.
Obito's supposed death had a huge impact on Kakashi's personality, adopting many of his friend's cheerful mannerisms such as having greater concern for his team-mates and students over the successful completion of a mission, as well as believing that teamwork is essential to overall success as a team. He has also developed a somewhat carefree personality and is regularly late for appointments, making obvious excuses just like Obito before him. This is often because he loses track of time during his frequent visits to the memorial stone where Obito's name is engraved.However, Kakashi is still just as apathetic as he was during his youth, often speaking bluntly about sensitive topics.
Though his childhood was riddled with numerous despairs that took those dear away from him, one being the death of Rin by his own hand, Kakashi is on the best terms with his childhood friends: Guy, Asuma, and Kurenai, his students and generally with everyone in Konoha to a lesser extent. His devotion to his friends and the rest of Konoha were the motivation to perfect both the Chidori, and its enhanced version Lightning Cutter. After the formation of Team 7, Kakashi begins taking a special interest in his students' development, especially in the case of Naruto and Sasuke whose rivalry reminded him of his relation to Obito. Like Hiruzen, Kakashi loved all of his students deeply, turning down a mission in order to stop Naruto and Sasuke from killing each other. Despite Sasuke allying with Orochimaru, Kakashi shared Naruto's hope that they could save him. However, Kakashi became originally distraught about having to kill Sasuke after he became an enemy of Konoha, especially since he felt that it was his shortcomings as their teacher that attributed to this and Naruto and Sakura's temporary falling out, but then furiously discarding his hesitation, only after Sasuke attempted to kill Sakura without a second thought.
Kakashi has a rather solitary, and matter-of-fact attitude. His calm and detached demeanour has been called "cool, hip, and trendy" many times by Might Guy. Despite his increasingly growing reputation and prowess as a ninja, Kakashi has shown no signs of arrogance, and is rather modest about his abilities, as shown when he readily praises others for leaps in their combat abilities and stating on more than one occasion that Naruto has surpassed him in power. When suggested by many for him to become Hokage, Kakashi openly admitted to feeling unworthy but would accept the post for the sake of the village's well-being. His naturally calm attitude is used to his advantage in battle, as it becomes easier for him to maintain his composure and stay focused on the situation at hand, and notice everything around him. As a result, he can quickly adjust to any situation to make keen and thought-out decisions, allowing him to stay steps ahead of his opponents.

Background Info
Kakashi is the son of Sakumo Hatake, a genius renowned as "Konoha's White Fang". Not much is known of his mother other than that she died at a young age. Sakumo fell into disgrace after choosing to save his comrades rather than complete an important mission, which caused the nation and the village to suffer a great loss. Dishonoured, Sakumo took his own life after suffering a deep depression and drop in his skills; this experience made Kakashi determined to lead his life strictly by the ninja code. Hailed as a prodigy,because of his great intelligence, skill, and aptitude, at five years old he graduated from the Academy in a single year at the top of his class, eventually joining a team alongside Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara under Minato Namikaze's command.
A young Kakashi witnesses his father's death.
He later became part of a one-sided rivalry with Might Guy. In the anime, Guy first approached Kakashi while he was reading and quickly announced his desire to challenge him. While initially Kakashi was completely indifferent to the overzealous Guy's request, Guy continued to follow Kakashi around and challenge him. Eventually, Kakashi gave in to Guy's request, beating Guy in every challenge, including various forms of marksmanship, taijutsu combat, and even physical comparison. Despite these losses, Guy became only more determined to defeat Kakashi. Seemingly warming up to Guy, he continued to accept Guy's various challenges (including eating contests and Rock, Paper, Scissors), ultimately giving Kakashi a record of 49 wins and 50 losses.
A year later, Kakashi became chūnin after facing and defeating Might Guy during the third stage of the Chūnin Exams.
Soon after becoming a jōnin, Kakashi was assigned to lead his team-mates Obito and Rin on a mission that would benefit Konoha in the ongoing Third Shinobi World War. They were to destroy Kannabi Bridge, which was being used by Iwagakure forces to move into Kusagakure. This would also be Konoha's first huge offensive move in the war. On their way to the bridge, Rin was kidnapped by two Iwagakure ninja named Kakkō and Taiseki. Obito immediately suggested that they rescue her, but Kakashi disagreed on the basis that they needed to complete their mission, opting not to make the same mistake his father did in his mission.
Obito would not hear of it and stubbornly left to save Rin, but not before mentioning that he believed Kakashi's father, the White Fang, was a true hero. Shortly after parting ways, Kakashi reflected on Obito's words and Rin's prior kindness. He realised that his father was not wrong after all, which prompted him to join Obito in the rescue effort. Kakashi arrived in time to save Obito from Taiseki, using his father's blade to combat him. Despite the two-to-one disadvantage, the more experienced Taiseki was able to attack and damage Kakashi's left eye, who took the blow that was intended for Obito, giving him a permanent scar and blinding his left eye.
Obito's will to protect his comrades caused his Sharingan to awaken, and he used it to kill Taiseki. After finding Rin and defeating Kakkō with Obito's help, Kakashi freed Rin from the genjutsu before their opponent attempted to trap them in a cave-in. While trying to escape, Kakashi was hit by a rock, which he didn't notice because of his bandaged eye, causing him to fall. Obito pushed Kakashi out of the path of a falling boulder, he himself getting crushed beneath it instead. Knowing he was dying, Obito requested his Sharingan be a belated present to Kakashi and instructed Rin to implant his left Sharingan into Kakashi's damaged eye. Rin complied, and as soon as the surgery was completed Kakashi used his new Sharingan to perfect his Chidori and kill Kakkō. He then returned to Obito to see if there was anything he could do for him, but alongside Rin was forced to leave him. With the help of Minato, they ultimately completed their mission, allowing them to mourn Obito's supposed death.
Later, in the anime, Kakashi and Rin's team was given Might Guy as a replacement. It was during this mission that Kakashi and Guy found true trust and teamwork with each other, and here Kakashi famously split a lightning bolt with his Chidori, giving birth to its new name Lightning Cutter. Later, during another mission, Kakashi met a young girl named Hanare of the Jōmae Village who was lost. He taught her about how the clouds can help her find her way and find her teacher.
Sometime after the events at Kannabi Bridge, Rin was taken captive by Kirigakure. Kakashi was able to rescue her, but not before she was forcibly made the jinchūriki of the Three-Tails. While returning to the village, they were ambushed by jōnin and ANBU-level Kiri shinobi. Rin, who knew about Kirigakure's plan to unleash the beast on Konoha, begged Kakashi to kill her. After he refused, Rin waited for Kakashi to attack, and intentionally got in Kakashi's path,culminating in a tearful Kakashi piercing through Rin's chest with his Lightning Cutter. Shortly afterwards, Kakashi and Obito — who witnessed it from behind the scenes — developed their fully-matured Sharingan and subsequently awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan at precisely the same time. Exhausted and overwhelmed with sorrow, Kakashi lost consciousness as Obito took his rage out on the Kirigakure ninja, slaughtering them all. Though Kakashi technically was the one who killed Rin, Obito left him alive, and he was later found by Konoha reinforcements.
After the conclusion of the war, Kakashi would often visit Rin and Obito's respective graves in the Konoha Cemetery and the Memorial Stone. On one such occasion, he visited Rin's grave and told her that their sensei's son would be born soon and left to go to the stone, unaware that Obito overheard him from afar and used that information to free the Nine-Tails and have the tailed beast ravage their village. During the Nine-Tails' attack on Konoha, Kakashi and the rest of his peers were barred from participating in defending the village by Kurenai Yūhi's father and other senior shinobi for their own safety as the younger generation.
Over the years, Kakashi became well-known amongst all the Five Great Shinobi Countries for the extensive use of his Sharingan, gaining him a reputation as "the man who has copied over a thousand techniques", hence his nickname. Kakashi eventually joined the Konoha ANBU, and also served as a mentor to Yamato whose codename was "Tenzō" at that time.
He later left for unknown reasons, but maintained strong connections with the ANBU. Kakashi eventually became a team leader, and tested many genin. As the Third Hokage told Iruka Umino, Kakashi had never passed any of them due to their inability to live up to his expectations of working as a team.
In the anime, he once had a mission where Iruka, his team-mate at the time, was injured and became an instructor at the Academy. When Iruka was having doubts at being assigned to be the home room teacher of Naruto Uzumaki, Kakashi served to remind him of his real reasons for wanting the post in the first place.
Lightning: Kakashi has a lightning affinity and great skill with the element. He's able to perform all lightning based jutsus with one handseal and at a very fast speed. His knowledge on the element is also at a high level. He's able to recognize most lightning jutsus based on the handseals. Due to his mastery of the element, Kakashi is well known for using some of his signature jutsus.
(Raiton: Raikiri) - Lightning Release: Lightning Blade
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Short (Long if applied to a projectile weapon)
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: 80
Description: The Lightning Cutter is an enhanced and concentrated form of the Chidori with the same effects and drawbacks that is done performing the Ox → Rabbit → Monkey hand seals. According to Might Guy, it gained its name after Kakashi split a bolt of lightning with it. Because the Chidori is already powerful on its own, the Lightning Cutter requires better chakra control, which is exemplified in its appearance. The Chidori appears as simply a mass of white electrical chakra in the user's hand, while the Lightning Cutter is much more focused. Kakashi has shown different ways of forming and using the Lightning Cutter, unique to him. For example, he demonstrated the ability to imbue a projectile weapon, such as a kunai, with his Lightning Cutter, granting the technique long-range capabilities by throwing the kunai towards his target. In this instance, the kunai was capable of piercing through multiple large rocks with ease, without any loss of momentum or change in trajectory.
Note: Kakashi biographies can use the technique without hand seals.
Note: Only Kakashi biographies can apply the technique to a kunai and use it as a projectile attack.
(Raiton: Bai Raikiri) - Lightning Release: Double Lightning Blade
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Short
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: 80 per Lightning Blade
Description: The Lightning Cutter is an enhanced and concentrated form of the Chidori with the same effects and drawbacks. Because the Chidori is already powerful on its own, the Lightning Cutter requires better chakra control, which is exemplified in its appearance. The Chidori appears as simply a mass of white electrical chakra in the user's hand, while the Lightning Cutter is much more focused. Kakashi has shown different ways of forming and using the Lightning Cutter, unique to him. For example, he has shown the ability to, without hand seals, perform 2 simultaneous Lightning Blades, one in each hand, which he can use to defend from Lightning techniques or to simply attack the enemy in a strong and dangerous melee attacks.
Note: Can only be used by Kakashi bios
( Raiton: Raiden ) - Lightning Release: Lightning Chain
Rank: S
Type: Offensive
Range: Short (Mid range connection)
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: This technique requires the user to firstly create a shadow clone. Then, each of them will activate the Lightning Cutter on opposite hands to one another. Connecting the two techniques together, forming a chain of sorts, they are then able to use the resulting beam to slice through objects with great ease.
Note: Must first have a shadow clone in the field.
Katon: It may not be his affinity, but Kakashi can use the element at a very high level. His knowledge on it is quite outstanding and his ability to perform katon jutsus at a very high speed is remarkable.
Hidden Rain's signature weapon. Umbrella's are shown to be used frquently by Rain ninja in anime/manga.
•Senbon Shower: releases a hailing "shower" of senbon. It cannot be dodged by moving away since the needles cover a wide area in all directions, controlled by chakra. Although the needles are said to be able to pierce a five millimetre thick steel sheet, they can still be blocked by a powerful enough shield. Medical ninja can dip their senbon with poison to increase their lethality.
(Jouro Senbon) - Sprinkling Needles
Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: After hurling their umbrella into the air, the user will unleash a torrent of needles. Using their chakra they can guide these needles towards their opponent.
Sheild: The cover of the umbrella is made up of metallic threads, capable of defending against weak physical attacks and projectiles.
•Added Modification: Wires, the ribcage of the umbralla could be modified to shoot out wires from the end. This could be used to bind targets.
(Kubikiribōchō) Executioner's Blade
Type: Weapon
Rank: B-Rank
Range: N/A
Chakra: N/A
Damage: N/A
The trademark blade of Momochi Zabuza, the Kubikiribōchō is a very large broadsword in all aspects similar to a very large butcher knife, which is how it became to be known as the "Seversword". The blade itself has two cut outs, a circle close to the top and a semi-circular one nearer the handle, that aptly fit the sword's purpose of decapitation, as demonstrated through the usage of it blade. A special property of the blade it that it has regenerative abilities, able to reform almost instantaneously and is capable of bringing the weapon back to its original condition no matter how severe the damage is, from a simple chip or nick to a complete separation of over half the blade. While it may seem a simple ability, its quite a dark one as it steems from the ability the sword has to regenerate from the iron in its targets blood. Basically, the more blood is spilled by the sword, the more iron it will take onto itself and use to reform. However, as a blade itself, its actually a strong and resilient weapon, capable of taking A-Rank damage directly before being damaged.
Note: It can be reformed as long as the user has either injured himself or the opponent. Takes 1 full turn to reform but doesn't count as a move.
Note: Can only be used by Momochi Zabuza, Hozuki Suigetsu, and Hatake Kakashi bios

I would not go OT because of what I saw with the OT's. Arogant, uncaring, mean and unloving.
Now that I had enough time in the Cult and have done my own research with my very bright and accurate mind, I can clearly see that this evil Organization makes people on staff do things they normally would not do. Everyone is spinning trying to help themselves and each other but they make mistakes. Some are HUGE mistakes. "The person around an SP gets so restimulated, they cannot detect the real SP" They make mistakes. LRH, DM and the TECH are the SP's.
If we did not need an 8th dynamic to survive, there would be NO religions anywher. The fact of the matter is that we do need an 8th dynamic. LRH is not it. Find your higher power (God) however you need to find it. You do need one, that is a fact. Surrender to the fact that Scientology gets everyone to make mistakes to hurt themselves and others. Forgive yourself, forgive others. Surrender to you higher power and start your spiritual journey again. You have much wisdom now You know that there is such a thing as "mind control" and it has been used on you to get into the heap full of fail that we all got into by doing Scientology.
It all begins with surrender, forgiveness and love.
Much love to you all!

The scrum-half had cartilage removed on Monday after his knee swelled up during training last week.
But more damage to the knee was discovered during the operation and had to be repaired, ruling him out of action for six weeks.
The Dragons begin their season against Hull on 11 February.
"The injury is a blow to the beginning of our 2007 campaign," said Catalans chief executive Nicolas Rayer.
"But, unlike last year and with a little more depth in our pivotal areas, we will be able to alleviate of the loss of Stacey for the first weeks."
Jones missed three months last season after breaking his arm in his side's second match of the season and in his absence the team won just three of their 12 Super League matches.
Jones' new half-back partner Casey McGuire also sat out Saturday's 38-22 win over a French President's XIII in St Esteve with a viral infection.
They were also without prop forward Mathieu Griffi, who is certain to miss the Hull game with a hamstring pull, and Jamal Fakir, who is still recovering from a career-threatening rupture of the patella tendon.
