Pair arrested in Rutland street disruptionBy Brent Curtis
STAFF WRITER | January 21,2013Two men were arrested Sunday night in Rutland after police from three agencies were called to disperse a crowd that gathered over a dispute on School Street.
More than 40 people were reportedly involved in a series of heated verbal and physical confrontations in the city's southwest neighborhood, Rutland Police Sgt. John Sly said.
"A lot of people came out to watch or get involved," Sly said.
In what he described as a "convoluted sequence of events" police were initially called to 36 Meadow Street at 4:23 p.m. for a reported fight.
At the scene, Sly said police found about 10 people arguing about the theft of a cell phone and a missing hat.
Sly said police left the scene believing that the parties would stay separated. But more than three hours later they were called back when some of the same people involved in the earlier dispute moved to 79 School St. where a crowd had
The size of the gathering was so great that city police called for backup from Vermont State Police and the Rutland County Sherriff's Department as well as another shift of officers coming on duty in the city.
Police also arrested two participants — 19-year-old Tiler Cormia and Nicholas Prior, 20, both of Rutland — on charges of disorderly conduct.

What is a Learning Disability?
A learning disability is a permanent disorder which affects the manner in which individuals with normal or often above average intelligence acquire, retain, and express information. Such difficulties in processing information can significantly interfere with academic and/or social development. Like interference on the radio or a blurry TV picture, incoming or outgoing information may become jumbled as it travels between the senses and the brain.
Dyslexia is a "specific learning disability" according to IDEA 2004

Based on Ken Kesey's landmark novel -- later made into the iconic, Oscar-winning movie starring Jack Nicholson -- One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest follows Randle McMurphy, a small-time crook who fakes insanity to get out of a prison sentence. But instead of resting up at the state mental hospital, the rebellious yet charming McMurphy finds himself going toe-to-toe with the authoritarian Nurse Ratched as he attempts to stir up his fellow mental patients.

The venue was charming and small town and we were treated nicely by the staff. The disappointment with the show was based on the fact that we were serious Gene Pitney fans and the group who performed played his music with a tongue in cheek approach. It was not performed seriously and it almost felt like they were mocking him. Silly hand motions and humor was added in the middle of what were serious songs that some of the audience remembered fondly from younger days. The whole performance just felt silly and although the performers had good voices their interpretation of Pitney's music was disappointing to say the least. The performance would also have been greatly enhanced by adding a drummer, a better balance in the sound system and a longer show that 45 minutes of his music. The entire show was only about 1 hour and it included three songs by another artist who performed Dusty Springfield music.

This show was fantastic! I would see it again!
Town Without Pity is a tribute to Gene Pitney, one of the most under-recognized pop stars of the 1960s. Within a period of five years, Pitney wrote hits for The Crystals and Ricky Nelson, worked with Phil Spector and the Rolling Stones, sang an Oscar-nominated song and was voted Italy's #1 recording artist.
Gene Pitney was a chart-topping singer and a successful songwriter whose "Rubber Ball" was a hit for Bobby Vee, "Hello Mary Lou" a hit for Ricky Nelson and "He's a Rebel" a #1 hit for The Crystals. On his very first recording he played piano, guitar, drums and sang, "I Wanna Love My Life Away." His recordings in Italian and Spanish earned him top honors at the San Remo Song Festival in Italy, while "Only Love Can Break a Heart," "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance," "Town Without Pity," "Half Heaven, Half Heartache," "It Hurts to Be in Love," "I'm Gonna Be Strong," "24 Hours from Tulsa" and "Mecca" got him inducted into the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame in 2002. Pitney had sixteen Top 40 hits in the U.S. and was on England's Hit Parade 40 times.

Transjugular Intrahepatic Portosystemic Shunt (cont.)

How is TIPS performed?
Unfortunately, one of the places varices form is in the stomach and lower esophagus, and these varices have a tendency to bleed massively, frequently causing death from exsanguination. By providing an artificial path for blood traveling from the intestines, through the liver, and back to the heart, the shunt placed during the TIPS procedure reduces the pressure in the portal vein, preventing varices from forming.
There are several types of portosystemic shunts that are placed surgically, but TIPS is a non-surgical method of placing a portosystemic shunt. The shunt is passed down the jugular vein from the neck by a radiologist using X-ray guidance. The shunt then is inserted between the portal and hepatic veins within the liver.
What are the complications of TIPS?
Comment on this Read 2 Comments
There are two important complications of the TIPS procedure. The first is hepatic encephalopathy, a condition in which it is believed that toxic products from the intestines (for example, ammonia) that are normally removed from the blood by the liver remain in the blood and are delivered to the brain. (The TIPS allows the toxin-containing blood to bypass the liver.) The effects on the brain can vary from minor alterations in thinking to full coma.
A second complication is heart failure due to the sudden increase in the amount of blood returning to the heart through the shunt. The heart is unable to pump the returning blood fast enough, resulting in heart failure.
Finally, one complication may be caused by the shunt itself; problems such as infection and shunt occlusion, requiring placement of another shunt.

I love this. It will help deal with a ninja that takes everything, even the Armani Hex sticks as a need roll. I had two pieces of gear taken from me, when it wasn't even good for the Tank on a run last night. He would even need on items that had NO good use for a DK tank. If he was actually on my server I would have told everyone about it. However, since he wasn't and more than likely will never deal with any of the four from the group, he told us he didn't care.

With the clock ticking toward the midnight fiscal cliff, President Barack Obama said Monday that a deal to avert tax hikes and spending cuts in the new year "is within sight, but it's not done."
"There are still issues to resolve, but we're hopeful that Congress can get it done," Obama said.
As Obama spoke, Congress was nearing a more than $600 billion deal that would raise taxes on households that make more than $450,000 a year and individuals who make more than $400,000. The emerging deal would also permanently patch the Alternative Minimum Tax, raise the estate tax rates for high-value properties, extend unemployment benefits for a year, extend several middle-class tax cuts for five years and add a temporary fix to Medicare reimbursement rates.
A deal to avert the steep tax hikes for most Americans took shape Monday after late-night negotiations led by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and Vice President Joe Biden -- giving sudden hope to high-stakes talks that had been on the brink of collapse.
The agreement would reflect significant concessions by both sides, but particularly for McConnell. Obama campaigned on raising taxes for families who make more than $250,000, but McConnell has long been dead-set against any tax increases, warning they would jeopardize the economy. It would make the the higher tax rates for wealthier families permanent, which McConnell would sell as a win for his party since it could avert future fights over expiring tax rates.
(PHOTOS: 11 side effects of going over the cliff)
However, there has been no agreement over "turning off" the sequester, tens of billions of dollars in spending cuts that will hit the Pentagon and other federal agencies beginning on Jan. 2, the sources said. That remains the biggest sticking point in the talks. Democrats want to delay the sequester for a full year and pay for it with a mix of new revenue and spending cuts, while House Republicans have been demanding only spending cuts. Any deal without House Republicans will be a heavy lift.
Even if the Senate comes through with a vote on Monday, House Republican leadership says they won't rush to pass a bill in the middle of Monday night. In the Senate, leaders in both parties planned to huddle with their respective caucuses just hours before the new year strikes, pushing the country even further to the brink of the fiscal cliff.
"Democrats and Republicans in Congress have to get this done," Obama said, adding that with this Congress, "if there is even one second left before you have to do what you're supposed to do, they will use that last second."
(Full coverage of the fiscal cliff)
Obama ribbed Congress at another point during his remarks from the White House complex, saying he had hoped for a comprehensive deficit-reduction deal "so we can put all of this behind us and just focus on growing our economy."
"With this Congress, that was obviouly a little too much to hope for at this time," Obama said. "Maybe we can do this in stages. We can solve this problem instead in several steps."
McConnell and Biden, who served in the Senate together for 23 years, are closing in on an agreement that would hike tax rates to 39.6 percent for families who earn more than $450,000, and individuals who make more than $400,000, according to sources familiar with talks.
The accord would provide a permanent patch of the Alternative Minimum Tax to prevent it from hitting middle-income earners. The estate tax would be set at 40 percent for inherited properties worth more than $5 million -- less than the 55 percent rate for properties worth $1 million that would kick in absent a deal. (Obama wanted an estate tax set at 45 percent for estates worth more than $3.5 million.) The first $5 million of an estate for a single person would not be taxed; that threshold would rise to $10 million for married people.
Republicans would portray both of those tax components as a victory.
Democrats would get a year-long extension of both unemployment benefits and business-friendly tax provisions. In a major win for the Obama administration, tax cuts for families first enacted in the 2009 stimulus -- an earned income tax credit, child tax credit and college tax credit -- would be extended for five years.
The deal would also prevent rate cuts to doctors who treat Medicare patients, sources said. Dividends and capital gains would be taxed at 20 percent, up from the current 15 percent rate.
As news spread about a possible deal, anger on both sides of the aisle continued to grow, especially among liberals.
Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), an influential liberal, warned on the floor that the discussions over a deal on the estate tax and raising the threshold to $450,000 "doesn't sit well with this senator." He called the outlines of a possible deal is "grossly unfair" and a "tough pill to swallow."
Harkin told POLITICO that he would object to any effort for a quick vote on the possible deal if it resembled what he had read in early reports. He was immediately summoned to a meeting with Reid.
Sen. Tom Udall (D-N.M.) said he was "disturbed" about the proposal, particularly its short-term nature. "I don't think we should be kicking the can down the road," especially if there's a deal to delay the sequester from taking effect.
"It's not a great sign," Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.) told reporters, cautioning that he wants to see other elements of the deal. "Obviously it takes a lot of revenue off the table that will lead to more cuts in other things."
When asked whether it would be better to run out the clock on the current Congress, Whitehouse responded "as long as we get a decision at a reasonable time in January and we make it retroactive, there's no real long term harm in that and that may be the best way to get a good, fair, sensible deal for the middle class."
Moderate senators like independent Joe Lieberman of Connecticut and Susan Collins of Maine, both expressed openness to the possible deal.
Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), No. 3 in leadership, said he wanted to see a deal that "would actually deal with the real problem ... that our country spends too much."
(PHOTOS: Fiscal cliff's key players)
The last-ditch horse-trading underscored the urgency of the situation because if no deal is reached, every income group will be hit with a tax hike starting Tuesday.
Crucial conversations between Biden and McConnell occurred early Monday morning, at 12:45 a.m. and 6:30 a.m., aides said.
The vice president and the Senate minority leader only began talking Sunday, after negotiations between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and McConnell sputtered.
Sources close to the talks said a deal is now more likely to come together but cautioned that obstacles remain, including how Speaker John Boehner and House Republican leaders react to any tentative agreement. Boehner has vowed to bring any bill the Senate passes to the House floor, but House Republicans could amend the package, which would throw any agreement into flux
"The leader and the VP continued their discussion late into the evening and will continue to work toward a solution. More info as it becomes available," a McConnell spokesman said.
It comes as Washington awakens on a chilly New Year's eve to a daunting reality: If lawmakers and the White House are not able to broker a last-minute deal on the fiscal cliff, the country will actually go over it.
Going over the cliff is not how Americans want to start 2013: with hefty new tax hikes and spending cuts that could send the stock market plummeting, slash defense spending and interrupt an economic recovery that was just beginning to spark.
But after a weekend in which senators haggled over one obstacle to agreement after another, going over the cliff looked like a real possibility, if not a probability. The McConnell-Biden talks look like they could avert this potential disaster.
The main hurdle remained over which income groups would be hit with tax hikes in the new year.
Democrats had proposed raising taxes on individuals who make more than $360,000 annually and families whose income is more than $450,000. And McConnell had countered with a tax hike for individuals above $450,000 and couples who earn more than $550,000 earlier in the evening Sunday.
But Democratic sources close to the talks said McConnell would have to go significantly lower to win support from their party, although that would make it more difficult for the GOP leader to win over fellow Republicans.
The back-and-forth shows the difficult political calculus both sides were making on the eve of a critical deadline. The drawn-out negotiations were frustrating to many in both parties who are eager to see an agreement reached.
(Also on POLITICO: Grumpiness to go around inside Capitol)
"I've been here four years, and I cannot believe negotiations have reached this level of gridlock. I am fed up with the stalling," said Alaska Democratic Sen. Mark Begich.
With no deal at hand, Senate leaders were preparing alternative plans to avoid the cliff's full impact, including a fallback option floated by Democrats to force through an extension of current tax rates for families who make less than $250,000, as well as new spending measures to extend jobless benefits for 2 million unemployed Americans. Republicans were still weighing whether they'd demand 60 votes for passage of even a limited measure, though the prospects for such a bill in the GOP-controlled House remained bleak.
Such a deal wouldn't fend off the sequester. Federal agencies, including the Pentagon, will be required to cut $109 billion over the next nine months, raising the specter of furloughs and layoffs for federal employees.
The House Republican leadership moved Sunday night to give itself expedited authority to bring legislation to the floor in case the Senate actually passes a compromise bill Monday.
House Republicans, who turned against their own leadership last week, rallied around Boehner on Sunday night, giving him a round of applause for his work in negotiating over the fiscal cliff.
But the more both sides negotiated this weekend, the more they seemed to remain in place.
After loud Democratic protests on Sunday, Republicans agreed to take off the table a controversial provision that would have cut Social Security benefits. But more hurdles soon emerged, including over automatic spending cuts set to take place next year, and the rates for estate taxes that are set to balloon if no deal is reached by the new year.
Key to the stalemate is the growing tension between McConnell and Reid, the pair who took over the fiscal cliff talks Friday following weeks of fruitless discussion between Obama and Boehner.
Democrats are angry at McConnell, believing he's adopted for the Senate the "majority of majority" standard Boehner has demanded in the House. McConnell does not believe Reid is playing straight with him, saying the Nevada Democrats has shown little urgency by dragging his feet through the weekend of talks.
Biden's inclusion in the negotiations -- similar to the role he played in previous legislative fights involving McConnell, an old Senate colleague -- sets up a "good cop, bad cop" scenario for Democrats, with Reid playing the heavy and Biden able to work more closely with GOP leaders on Capitol Hill.
Republicans, for their part, aren't sure Reid and Obama even want a deal, believing Democrats figure that they win politically if no agreement is reached and the country goes off the cliff.
Republicans were still weighing their strategy if Reid moves forward with a fallback plan. If they consent to a simple majority vote, the bill could pass the Senate, putting House leaders in a difficult position on the eve of a cliff fall. But if Senate GOP-ers demand 60 votes, they could be blamed for blocking a last-ditch deal to avert massive tax hikes.
"We'd like to be able to offer some amendments" to a cliff deal, said Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, the incoming GOP whip. "It depends on the majority leader."
House Republicans -- who brought their chamber back to session Sunday -- are waiting for the Senate to pass a bill, and don't plan to move any bill on their own.

No flavour of coffee, no caffeine hit, nothing nice about theses "coffee" bags at all. If it was a blind test I would never have thought I was drinking coffee....more a watery gravy of sorts!!!!

Perfect for the occasional cup
As the only coffee drinker in the house I normally have Gold blend instant coffee - either supermarket or brand name. I like these because I get the fresh coffee aroma every time even if I only have one cup every few weeks. I wouldn't recommend these for heavy filter coffee drinkers but if like me you've only recently realised that it was lactose intolerance that was ruining your coffee experience then these are perfect. If they had a Columbian coffee version I'd probably give that 5 stars - as it is I can't tell the difference in taste between these or the all day ones in green edged box.

Strong Enough
I'm very fussy indeed about my coffee, so I was a bit dubious about these bags after reading the other reviews. However, the coffee is absolutely splendid. I can't say how it compares with the older product, but if this coffee was weak, I would be saying some very impolite things about it. I like my coffee strong, so I simply leave the bag in a bit longer, and it is fine. I work away a lot in hotels, and sometimes the quality of the coffee is very poor. Having a handful of these in my baggage makes all the difference.

Very disappointing
Tried these bags this week as they were on special offer - very disappointed - they had no strength or aroma at all. Didn't taste fresh. Had some from Lyons a few years ago and they were much better.

Great tasting coffee!
Bought these as an alternative when my capsules were unavailable. No plans to switch back! These are great and so easy to use.

Welcome to the city of Powell, Wyoming.
Log in or register
Town Incorporated: 1909
City Incorporated: 1964
Population 2010: 6314
Elevation: 4365
Contact Information
The history of the Powell area begins before the arrival of the
white man in a time when the area was home to the Crow, Blackfeet
and Shoshone Indians, noted by the many Indian names of landmarks,
rivers, streets, and towns. Frontiersman John Colter made the first
recorded entry into the valley in the early 1800's returning
to a trading post on the Yellowstone from Indian winter camps. In
the late 1870's the first reported herd of cattle was moved
into the Powell Valley from Oregon. In 1888, the U.S. Senate had
the USGS study the feasibility of irrigating arid lands by using
dams, canals, and hydraulic works. The area around Powell became
part of this development with the authorization of the Shoshone Project
and Buffalo Bill Dam on the Shoshone River in 1904 - one of the first
three projects authorized in the U.S. by the Bureau of Reclamation.
Work began on the dam and canal projects, with Camp Colter being
set up near the present townsite to serve as headquarters and tent
camp for the several hundred men working on the Shoshone and Garland
Canal projects. Excavation work began on Buffalo Bill Dam in September
of 1907, and water from the Garland Canal became available for settlers
in June of 1908. With the coming of settlers, determination was a
large part of the makeup of these homesteaders who settled the Powell
Valley, homesteading began and agriculture became the driving economic
force with the availability of water for the land. They transformed
a portion of the valley that was mostly sagebrush flats into irrigated
farm ground. With the completion of the project, the camp became
the logical site for a town. However, because the name Colter had
already been used for a railroad siding, a search began to name the
new town. The name Powell came from Major John Wesley Powell, early
day explorer, conservationist, and head of the Reclamation/Geodetic
Service at the time of consideration of the Shoshone Project. Major
Powell never explored the Powell flats given his name. The first
town lots for Powell were put on the auction block in May of 1909
and the town grew. The first action to incorporate the town came
in 1909 and it was incorporated into Big Horn County in 1910. In
1911, Powell became part of the newly organized Park County. Since
that time, more land has been irrigated for farming, cattle ranching
followed, and an oil industry boomed and declined in Elk Basin. Agricultural
products from the Shoshone Irrigation Project are widely distributed,
and include beans, barley, sugar beets, corn, alfalfa, and other
forage and seed crops grown under irrigation in this originally dry
area. Powell became a business community of approximately 6,000 serving
a large agricultural area. From zero dollars valuation to millions
of dollars, Powell has grown into a community of progress, with a
future ahead of it, and a past rich in achievement.
The City of Powell is a community located in the northwest corner
of Wyoming, 75 miles east of Yellowstone National Park and 98 miles
south of Billings, Montana. Lying between the Big Horn Mountains
on the east and the Absaroka Range on the west, clear blue skies,
clean air, a temperate climate, and loads of sunshine make the Powell
Valley a wonderfully refreshing place to live.
Powell is recognized as a progressive community and was designated
an All America City in 1994. A small town atmosphere, quality of
life, old-fashioned values, a can-do spirit, and friendly people
are a way of life in the Powell community.
Powell has a diverse commercial, industrial, educational, historical museum and agricultural/
ranching based economy with dedicated, hard-working people with strong
work ethics. Superior educational opportunities abound with excellent
schools and an outstanding two-year college. Excellent health care
facilities, recreational opportunities, retirement living, cultural
events, shopping, fine dining, and modern community and public services
all provide for a high quality of life for our residents.
Powell has a Mayor/Council – City Administrator form of government.
The legislative body of Powell consists of a Mayor elected at large,
with six council members, two elected from each of the three City
wards. The Mayor appoints (with Council concurrence) the City Administrator,
City Attorney, Municipal Judge, and members of boards and commissions.
The City consists of ten departments under the direction of the
City Administrator - Police, Administration & City Clerk, Finance,
Engineering/Building, Electrical, Information Technology, Water/Wastewater, Parks, Sanitation/Public
Health, and Streets.
Powell Valley has a high desert climate, located in a nearly snow-free
valley between two mountain ranges with mild winters and warm, dry
summers. Snow on the ground is a rare treat and rain is scarce. Annual
precipitation (total rain and snow) averages just 5.83 inches a year.
Powell winters run about 25 degrees warmer than Chicago winters.
Summer temperature ranges run anywhere from the 80's to 100's.
With the exception of irrigated farm ground, the valley is covered
with sagebrush and desert like vegetation.
I hope we have seen the last of winter. It seemed that it lasted forever. Now we just need it to dry out a little so the farmers can get their crops in.
My first year as your Mayor seemed to fly by; all and all it was a good year for me and a good year for the city. There were a few little bumps in the road but I expected that. We completed the New SRE Building at the airport which houses a new Fixed Base Operator area as well as storage garage for snow removal equipment. This project was long overdue and turned out very nice. If you get a chance, drive out and take a look. I am sure Debbie would be glad to show you around.
After five years of working on garbage (MSW), I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. Our Municipal Solid Waste Transfer Station is up and running. Pending Council's approval we will be delivering our garbage to the Billings City Landfill around the first of July at a cost of $57.00 per ton (that includes tipping fees and transportation cost). Based on 5,000 ton per year, which is probably low, this will amount to approximately $155,000 dollars a year reduction in garbage disposal expense for the City of Powell. MSW disposal is still very expensive, but at this time I don't see any better options.
We have seen positive growth with a couple of new subdivisions and some building activity in Water Tower West. This activity along with normal maintenance have kept our City crews very busy this past year.
We are looking forward to next year. We have no major projects planned. We will be doing our normal maintenance, slurry seal, chip seal, hot mix, electric pole replacement, finish replacing the light fixtures downtown and other street repairs. Our budget for next fiscal year should be finalized in the next couple of weeks, and I am hoping we can put a little money in our General Fund Reserve like we did last year and get it back up to where our auditors recommend it should be.
We will be looking at water and sewer mains that are old and need to be replaced. I requested that the Engineering Department and the Water Department come up with a priority list which they have done. These mains are very old and we need to come up with a replacement schedule and cost. This problem is not going to go away the longer we prolong; the worse it is going to get.
I hope you enjoy your summer.

Free Screen Casts to demonstrate and explore MacRuby
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
MacRubyCasts is an effort to follow in the footsteps of many great screencasting forefathers. Sites like railscasts.com, peepcode.com and gitcasts.com have proven to be great help in learning a particular feature or technique. This blog will center around MacRuby, starting simple, and hopefully delving into the full potential of writing native Mac Applications using Ruby as the primary development language.
The current goal is to record and author a screencast at least every 2 weeks.
There are several bite sized topics ready for recording, however, feel free to send any requests to firstname.lastname@example.com

Winter season will be officially over very soon! The past few months were cold and freezing with a windy periods that damaged our skin and made it dry and chapped. But now, with the spring upon us, it's time for every real lady to make her face skin prepared for sunny days. This means that you need a healthy and glowing skin without makeup. It can be challenging, but it's not impossible! Actually you can have summer-ready skin in just two weeks if you start using the scrubs from my collection. They're all very easy to make and probably you'll need just a few ingredients from your pantry. Check out my list and make sure that you have all required components for the mixtures!
Easy DIY Face Scrub
I am starting the countdown with the easiest recipe of all. This DIY Microdermabrasion requires only two simple ingredients: water and baking soda. All instructions you need are written in the picture above. Try it and you won't regret it!
DIY Face Scrub
Here is one more simple idea which is similar to the previous recipe. The only difference between these two scrubs is in the amount of water and baking soda. Try them both and see for yourself which combination will give you a better result!
Miraculous DIY Face Scrub
With this Miraculous DIY Face Scrub things are getting a little bit complicated here. Can you believe it that for this scrub you'll need not two, but three ingredients?! Mix sugar, olive oil and honey and apply the mixture on your face. The end result is glowing and silky skin!
DIY Oatmeal Scrub
Here is a DIY Oatmeal Scrub that promises a lot! If you want to try it, you'll need: oatmeal, baking soda, olive oil and moisturizer. Apply the mix on the face and wait your skin to become refreshed, radiant and exfoliated!

The first 70° day of the year appeared on Wednesday in the metro and boy did it feel nice. Amazing as it sounds, we are actually slightly ahead of schedule for the 70's as our typical first 70° day comes on April 13th. No complaints from anyone in the state as warm air surged northward and brought 70's and 80's as far north as the Canadian border. Check out the high temperatures from across the area with a list of the coveted cities who managed to crack 80.

This artist paints pictures of women with mechanical parts. Specifically, she paints pictures of women with see thru, milk filled breasts, and see through uteruses gestating what look like fully human babies. One of her works features a reclining woman, with snakes for hair, holding an orange in her right hand. She is draped in blue.
You may be able to see the picture in this link:
I discovered the artist years ago, here on MDC, but can not remember her name. Any help would be appreciated...
Found it! Thanks for looking!

Interstitial keratitis
Interstitial keratitis is inflammation of the tissue of the cornea, the clear window on the front of the eye. The condition can lead to vision loss.
Alternative Names
Keratitis interstitial
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Interstitial keratitis is a serious condition in which blood vessels grow into the cornea. Such growth can cause loss of the normal clearness of the cornea. This condition is often caused by infections.
Syphilis is the most common cause of interstitial keratitis, but rare causes include:
- Autoimmune diseases, like rheumatoid arthritis and sarcoidosis
- Leprosy
- Lyme disease
- Tuberculosis
In the United States, most cases of syphilis are recognized and treated before this eye condition develops. However, interstitial keratitis remains the most common cause of blindness in the world.
- Eye pain
- Excessive tearing
- Sensitivity to light (photophobia)
Signs and tests
Interstitial keratitis can be easily diagnosed by slit-lamp examination of the eyes. Blood tests and chest x-rays will usually be needed to confirm the infection or disease that is causing the condition.
The underlying disease must be treated. Treating the cornea with corticosteroid drops may minimize scarring and help keep the cornea clear.
Once the active inflammation has passed, the cornea is left severely scarred and with abnormal blood vessels. The only way to restore vision at this stage is with a cornea transplant.
Support Groups
Expectations (prognosis)
Diagnosing and treating interstitial keratitis and its cause early can preserve the clear cornea and good vision.
A corneal transplantation is not as successful for interstitial keratitis as it is for most other corneal diseases. The presence of blood vessels in the diseased cornea brings white blood cells to the newly transplanted cornea and increases the risk of rejection.
Calling your health care provider
All patients with interstitial keratitis will be closely followed by an ophthalmologist and a medical specialist with expertise in the underlying disease. Any worsening pain, increasing redness, or decreasing vision should be evaluated immediately. This is particularly crucial for patients with corneal transplants.
Prevention consists of avoiding the underlying infection, and if infected, receiving prompt and thorough treatment and follow-up.

whoa i forgot about this place whooaaaaaa
So um
Dunno if I really NEED to state that I've kinda been…gone. Don't really think I plan on returning though. Everyone died in a carcrash or something I dunno.
But really I just…don't really have time to do this much anymore with school and commissions. Especially with my dislike of comics haha. So yeah. Might reveal the full backstories of the characters one day when I feel like it!
My half of a trade with the ever savvalous Savvy featuring Miss Cherry and Eli givin' a snuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuug
Art Trade with jw~ /o/
Riley of Team Dreadnaught! >:3
Woo woo!! <333333333333333
Mothball cameo! Check it out!!
wowowo this looks really cool!
tired of fennekin being on my dash because it was cute at first but now everyone loves it to death and art of it keeps appearing and these people are making me dislike the little guy >:U
Noooo don't dislike him!!
Well, I still like him aesthetically when compared to Chespin but just the fact he's appearing over and over again on my dash; I'm just getting a little tired of him
Come on be reasonable about this, Pokémon just made a ground breaking announcement for the series and these three Pokémon are the face of it. How could you not expect there to be a huge explosion through the tumblr community?
Well Fennekin is like the lamest of the three sooooo
If you are going to post something offensive in your blog KNOWING that people are going to be pissed off, sweet words and compliments won't make it better. It will actually make you look more of an asshole.
I wouldn't worry about it. Pepelu is far from an intelligent person rofl
So as you could've probably guessed, I'm back from my vacation! aaaaand some of you have been caught off-guard by the fact that I'm now no longer a part of dA, nor any of the groups from it (Sixfold, pmde, kitty-katty-city). I realize that I didn't give any of you an explanation as to why I decided to do this, and since you've all been so great to me for the last two or so years, I figure I owe you all an explanation.
At first I wasn't gonna say anything, but then you mentioned my name, so I feel obligated to do so.
I'm pretty sure you're just gonna ignore me or whatever, but I don't care. I wanna say something so I'm gonna say it.
". I took my hiatus a while back to try to learn to build my life away from you guys, but I was unsuccessful…I didn't grow as a person, I didn't make any new friends, I didn't get a job, I didn't earn my license…any of it. And the primary reason why I felt like I couldn't grow in my real life was because I felt chained mentally and emotionally to my online life"
You placed unrealistic goals and expectations unto yourself, so of course this will happen. Pep, first of all, in this economy, getting a job, especially for an 19 y/o who just finished their first semester this year, is going to be hard. So I don't even know how you thought you'd even be able to manage that in such a short time span. Secondly, why the hell are you giving yourself a TIME FRAME in order to make friends? That's ridiculous. Friendship isn't a process, an equation, something that you can do easily within a allotted time. Friendship just…happens. Why rush it?
And if you honestly, blame your online relations for your failing…well way to avoid the issue. If your dependency online is what really cause your failure, then it's your own fault for letting dA, Tumblr and Skype get to you so much. So, why punish and degrade other people who were nothing but NICE to you?
"Sixfold became my life for the past year, give or take. It felt like a job, or like I was part of an important club at school, or something to that effect….it didn't earn me any money to support me, it didn't teach me anything, it didn't make me more confident, it didn't broaden my mind."
What. Okay, first off, sweetheart, you were and ADMIN. ADMINISTRATOR. What made you think the position would be all FUN? That's illogical thinking right there. Yes, some parts will be fun. And that was evident by the RPing you did on Kassy's blog. But there is work involved. That should've been obvious from the day the idea of SixFold was conjured up. Look at all the work you and the other admins put into the world building and plot…and you thought it was only going to be FUN?
I'm sorry but you're an idiot for thinking so.
Moreover, Sixfold didn't earn you anything? How about fucking responsibility? Time management? Leadership? And if we're talking physical things, weren't a vast majority of your commissions from SixFold members anyway?
Nice going there, darling.
"internet friendships are not real."
I would love to know what kind of a person your friend is. Because frankly, she's a cunt, and you are too for letting her get to you so much.
Well they were very real to your friends, your fellow admins in 6XL and your ex-boyfriend (good job breaking it off with him on New Years Day, btw. You have excellent timing)
Pep, what in the hell makes you believe Internet friends aren't real? You are a real person behind that computer screen. I am too. So is Iam, Mir, Bex, Mikami, Crit, etc. They are all real people. And because they are real people, they feel real emotions, laugh real laughs, cry real tears, and form real relationships.
The thing is, for some reason, you, and your stupid friend, seem to have it in your thick skulls that people over the Internet are lying. Aleast that's the implication. Why else would you feel that Internet friendships aren't real? If you choose to respond please answer that question. The thing is, Pep, I am capable of putting up a facade over the Internet AND in real life. You're an actor. You of all people should know this is possible. Yes, because you and the people you know are separated and can only communicate over the Internet, such deceit is easier, however that doesn't mean it's actually happening.
And it's quite rude of you to assume that.
It's quite rude of you to assume that the feelings your…what do I call them? Acquaintances? Cause apparently they aren't friends to you…from the people you know over Tumblr were fake. That they were fake. That they ARE fake. Actually, it's disgusting for you to be parading that type of bullshit around Tumblr and think it's okay.
It's not. It never has been and it never will be. See, you always do this: say something offensive but ornate your speech with fucking happiness and flowers and think that people will be fine with it. I'm pretty sure I proved to you that it isn't, sweetheart.
You need to grow up, Pep. You're so immature. You can't formulate decisions for yourself and the ones that people formulate for you end up screwing you over. Your real life friend convinced you to cut ties with REAL people. Your God turned you into a bigot. When are you going to start making decisions for yourself? When are you going to see the world through your own eyes and be your own person, instead of this fucking cunt hiding behind a mask of happiness and perpetual acceptance?
The mask is cracking, and your true self is showing through. And that person, to be frank, is someone who I could never see myself being friends with. Cause that person is a disgraceful human being. Disgraceful to the religion she chooses to hide behind, and disgraceful to just plain old human morals in general.
You're the fake one here, Aimee. Not the people you grew to know and then slapped in the face with this fuckery.
I just hope you come to realise that.

Secret Santa gift for Sevvicat's Team Altostratus!
Oh hey Red look it's you
Merry Christmas! For everyone who's made an good deal of influence in my life ever since I started my online career. Thank you very much, and let's continue living a wonderful life into a new year!
-Much love, Iam.
(What's that? Where's Pep's present? HEEHEE, WAIT AND SEE TOMORROW~<3)
rofl, thanks dude :)
Okay! So! Seeing as I'm poor as fuck and can't give these people to gifts they truly deserve, I'm stuck drawing them a picture instead. Seriously though, I've been friends with a good chunk of the folks for a year or so now and goddamn have they changed my life. I'm actually fucking blessed to have the privilege of getting to know them. I wish I could express my love and gratitude in a more fitting manner but alas, I can't;;; So you all have to deal with this. So sorry. So very sorry.
But anyways, Happy whatever Holiday you celebrate and I hope we can still be friends for the next years to come ^__^
why am I so late in seeing this??????????

This is where I spend most of my time online people, this chat is always beeping, haha!
You'll probably recognize some of them, but I'm also gonna leave everyone in the tags as well. I'll do it left to right, but I don't know if the tags will stay in order.

Digital Library of India
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Digital Library of India, part of the online services of the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore and partner in the Million Book Project, provides free access to many books in English and Indian languages. The scanning of Indian language books has created an opportunity for developing Indian language optical character recognition (OCR) software. The publications are mainly in PDF or QuickTime format.
Because of copyright laws, the texts are all out of copyright and therefore not sources for current information, but rather useful for history and background.
As of 2006[update] (November 10), DLI had scanned 84,895 titles.
Representative titles include:
- Ancient India, McCrindle J. W.. 1885.
- Ancient Indian Polity, Aiyangar K. V. Rangaswami. 1935.
- History of the Parsis Vol-I, Karaka Dosabhai Framji. 1884.

Meditating to Crashing Waves at a Buddhist Temple in Busan, Korea
With either a quick sip of serenity or a full day of devotion, the haven of the Haedong Yonggung temple will leave you calm and recharged. Buddhist chants echo into the gusting wind and waves crashing at the foot of the sweeping, ornate buildings on plateaus carved into the seaside cliff. The great monk Naong built the temple to host prayers for rain to end a devastating drought, and it now promises to answer "at least one of your wishes." So don't forget to leave a token offering at one of hundreds of little Buddha statues and figurines nesting in cracks and makeshift shrines across the temple grounds. One hundred-won coins and little probiotic yogurt bottles are local favorites.

JPMorgan hires New York law firm to help in hiring probe: report
Aug 20 (Reuters) - JPMorgan Chase & Co has hired New York law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison to investigate its hiring practices in Hong Kong, the Financial Times reported citing people familiar with the matter.
The law firm will respond to inquiries from the Securities and Exchange Commission about whether the bank's Hong Kong office hired children of key Chinese officials to help it win underwriting business and other contracts, the newspaper reported. ()
The SEC is questioning JPMorgan, the largest U.S. bank, over its relationships with at least two families in China that may have legitimate explanations, sources told Reuters.
JPMorgan and Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison were unavailable for comment outside U.S. business hours.
JPMorgan's shares closed at $52.12 on Monday on the New York Stock Exchange.
