Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

According to these sources, she was taken to the clinic for a routine outpatient gynecological procedure. The sources agreed with the BBC's reporting that the procedure was completed without complications. We were unable to ascertain for certain whether ASSK had been released from the hospital or whether she was still recovering there. A close associate of ASSK's said that a medical "bulletin" updating her condition would be released widely on September 19th. Martinez
