This summer I came so close to accepting my pale complexion. But whenever I head to the beach, hope rises in me. Maybe, just maybe, I can get a little color this summer. There's nothing worse than being the palest person on the sand. But as the horror stories continue to come in about the effects of tanning beds and natural tanning, little options are left to get that summer glow. That's why I decided to turn to the spray tan this summer. And unlike what you've heard in the past, a spray tan isn't just a quick fix. With a little time and energy, your spray tan can last for weeks.

There are three types of spray tans - a spray-on booth, a spray tan by an aesthetician and an at-home treatment. I decided to get a tan by an aesthetician at the St. Tropez tanning salon in Soho here in New York City. Although a little more expensive at $65 a treatment, the result was worth it. "The benefit of seeing an aesthetician is that they can provide a more personalized look, perhaps a more 'artistic effect' can be achieved,'" Dr. Deborah Sarnoff, a Eucerin Skin First Council member, told me.
Get A Tan Worth Maintaining
When I met with Skin Finishing Expert Sophie Evans from St. Tropez, a personalized look is exactly what I experienced. She assessed the color of my skin on my face compared to my body to come up with the perfect natural-looking formula. The key is to always use a lighter formula on the face since it receives the most sunlight and will always be a little darker than the rest of the body. A customized tan can also include the contouring and toning of the body (or what we call the lazy girl's trick to six-pack abs). I decided to forgo it.
After my tan, I went back to my apartment where my roommate literally screamed when she saw my transformation. It wasn't that I looked bad; she had never seen me look so tan before. Remember, you can't judge the color until after you've showered. The spray tan was just the beginning. I was determined to keep that color as long as possible. Using several products, such as self-tanners, exfoliators and cleansers, I was able to extend the life of my spray tan.

A tan looks best when skin is hydrated. The Tan Optimiser Shower Créme ($15, Sttropeztan.com) combines organic aloe vera with hydrating Mediterranean oils to cleanse the skin, preparing it for a self-tanner application. This formula also rejuvenates the spray tan. To apply, use like any other shower gel; work into a lather while showering and rinse thoroughly.
Even the best self-tanners I have tested have given me streaks along those trouble areas, including the wrists, knees and elbows. What I've always forgotten to do before application? Exfoliate. "You should exfoliate on or after the third day of your spray tan and then every few days," Evans told me. "Using a light exfoliator will guarantee the tan remains and stays even during the duration of the tan and as it starts to fade." After using the shower crème, apply the exfoliator to skin while bathing. Massage the formula all over your body in circular motions, concentrating on your elbows, knees and feet. Rinse. We recommend Clinique Sparkle Skin Body Exfoliator ($24, Sephora.com). FYI: Exfoliation doesn't remove a tan completely. It blends and removes harsh color.

Go Easy On The Self-Tanner
"I would not advise you to self tan daily as you may become too dark, and the tan could look unnatural," Evans said."It would be better to boost the color midweek with a gradual tanner, such as St. Tropez Everyday Gradual Body Lotion ($30, Sttropeztan.com), or use after intense exercise. Moisturize daily and be gentle with your skin" I admit I used the lotion more than recommended and I did see the color go from natural to orangey around my wrists and elbows. After a few days though, I started using the product only every few days and saw the natural color return.
Be Gentle With Your Face
Because the color on your face is usually a little darker than the rest of your body (and more sensitive), you should use a different tanning formula. Origins Faux Glow Radiant Self-Tanner For Face ($21.50, Origins.com) is a moisturizer with just a touch of self-tanner. I love this product because it adds to and enhances your tan. The moisturizing capabilities enhance the color from the spray tan while the marine extract boosts melanin when in contact with natural sunlight.
Enjoy The Results
After using these products religiously for about two weeks, I still had color. It may not have been dark enough to knock my roommate off the couch, but it was visibly noticeable. I highly recommend a spray tan to anyone who wants to jumpstart her color for summer…or enjoy a little color as summer now hits the final stretch.
Do you think the spray tan is the answer to our tanning woes?

Breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a procedure being studied more frequently for its role in detecting breast cancer, including the diagnosis of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) and contralateral breast cancer (breast cancer in the opposite breast) at the time of a first breast cancer occurrence. DCIS is a preinvasive form of breast cancer. Nearly all invasive ductal breast cancers are thought to develop from precancerous lesions (areas of abnormal tissue) seen in DCIS. The high-grade form of DCIS grows quickly and is more likely to develop into invasive breast cancer. Mammography is the standard method for diagnosing DCIS, which accounts for 20% of diagnosed breast cancers. Although the early results of breast MRI studies are encouraging, breast MRI should not be used as a substitute for mammography for women at average risk for breast cancer. However, it may be an additional tool to screen for breast cancer in women at high risk for developing the disease.
Recommendations for breast cancer screening
Guidelines from the American Cancer Society recommend breast MRI and mammography yearly beginning at age 30 for women at high risk for breast cancer. This population includes women who meet at least one of these criteria:
- Known BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation
- Strong family history of breast or ovarian cancer
- A 20% or greater lifetime risk of breast cancer (this can be calculated using a scientific tool that calculates a person's lifetime risk of developing breast cancer)
- Women who have received radiation therapy to the chest between the ages of 10 and 30
- Women with a first-degree relative with the BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutation who have not had testing themselves
- Women who have, or may have, a family history of a cancer syndrome that increases their risk of breast cancer
Learn more about the genetics of breast cancer.
Comparing breast MRI and mammography
MRI and mammography both take pictures of the breast, but in different ways. Here are some differences between breast MRI and mammography.
- An MRI uses a magnetic field that emits radio waves to produce a three-dimensional view of the breast and the underlying structures and vessels. Mammography uses low doses of radiation (x-rays) to produce a one-dimensional image of the breast.
- Breast MRI is a more sensitive test than mammography, especially because it is given with a contrast medium (a special dye). The dye makes the cancerous area of the breast appear much brighter, but it may cause many areas of the breast that do not have cancer to appear abnormal, producing an increased number of false-positive test results. This may lead to unnecessary biopsies (removal of breast tissue for further study) and increased anxiety for many women.
- Breast MRI cannot visualize calcifications (calcium deposits) and microcalcifications (irregular deposits of calcium) that typically surround DCIS lesions (the suspicious area). Mammography, on the other hand, can visualize calcium deposits accurately.
- A positive finding on an MRI requires a follow-up biopsy to confirm whether a suspicious finding is cancerous.
- Breast MRI may be better able to visualize dense breast tissue compared with mammography, and may be better in certain situations for women younger than 30 with a high risk of breast cancer.
- A breast MRI is expensive compared with a mammogram. Most insurance plans and Medicare cover a mammogram every 12 months, and women may be responsible for a small copayment. Not all insurance companies provide reimbursement for breast MRI for women at average risk for breast cancer, and some do not cover breast MRI for women at high risk. Medicare allows for "reasonable and necessary" breast MRI if performed on equipment approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Questions to Ask the Doctor
Breast MRI has certain limitations and is not intended for all women. Discuss any concerns about early breast cancer detection with your doctor, and consider asking the following questions:
- What is my risk of developing breast cancer?
- Based on my risk, do you recommend any additional screening tests, such as breast MRI, besides annual mammography?
- What are the risks and benefits of having a mammogram?
- What are the risks and benefits of having a breast MRI?
- Before I schedule my MRI, should I contact my insurance provider to see if it is covered?
- Is this facility accredited through the American College of Radiology?
- What is the next step if something is suspicious on the mammogram?
- What is the next step if something is suspicious on the MRI?

Manscaping: Dos & Don'ts
The Dos & Don'ts Of Manscaping
The big brands have recently repackaged these gadgets specifically for manscaping activities, but they're really just tried-and-true beard trimmers. That's what you want.
With the advent of the 20-inch back shaver and Matthew McConaughey's bare body prancing around on the stage of Magic Mike, you'd think we were in the midst of an all-out war on body hair. Not the case. What we have entered is an age in which men want to avoid looking like Chewbacca in the bedroom and at the beach. And while we applaud your efforts (indeed, much manscaping is being done right), there's still a great deal of don'ts out there. We're here to set the record straight.
Manscaping Dos
Buy the right toolsA disposable razor and some shaving cream won't cut it. The truth is, if you're really covered in a carpet, you shouldn't be shaving anyway. Instead, grab an electric trimmer with a guard that has adjustable settings for length. The big brands have recently repackaged these gadgets specifically for manscaping activities, but they're really just tried-and-true beard trimmers. That's what you want.
Trim your chest
No one needs to see a tuft of tresses creeping over your shirt collar, or worse, a complete carpet at the beach. Use that electric trimmer to thin things down to a fairly uniform density. How low you go is a personal preference, but avoid pruning yourself into massive five o'clock shadow.
Clean up your underarms
There should be some hair there, but a full-on forest isn't recommended. Groom the grass down to a length slightly longer than the surrounding countryside. Ultimately, they should look like pits without looking like the pits.
Wax your back and shoulders
OK, OK. So McConaughey got this one right. There are places that should glide like a Slip 'n Slide — namely, your back and shoulders. Get them waxed by a professional every six weeks or so. If you're a member of the more hirsute set or prone to breakouts, look into laser hair removal.
Mow down the bush
You need to maintain your manhood, too. A little less lawn makes the tree appear taller. Make it look natural. Your manscaping efforts shouldn't look manufactured. Trimming your pubic hair into a triangle, for example, is a definite no-no. Bottom line: If it's too perfect, we'd file that as a fail.
Manscaping Don'ts
Use at-home waxes or spraysDIY is fine for arts and crafts or caulking a tub. But when it comes to removing body hair with a drugstore depilatory, taking matters into your own hands will likely end in blood, sweat and a nasty rash.
Clean-shave your chest, arms or legs
Attempting to clear cut what God gave you isn't just wholly unnatural, but it can be incredibly uncomfortable and unsightly (think prickly patches with a healthy dose of razor burn). If you've been blessed with body hair, you should own it along with that electric trimmer we told you to buy.
Leave any defined lines
An artificial boundary of where hair ends and smooth skin begins isn't exactly attractive. This typically happens when one has elected to partake in an unapproved method of manscaping, like, say, clean-shaving a body part with a razor. Stick with a trimmer, and you'll never have to worry about doing this don't.
Forget about your backside
Most men's rears aren't exactly follicle free. Since we're serious supporters of a waxed back, you'll need to make sure (with the help of a mirror, yoga classes and that handy trimmer) that there isn't a heap of hair waiting below the waistline.
Go bare down there
You're a man, right? Feel free to tidy up the place (in fact, we highly recommend it), but please don't turn yourself into a prepubescent boy.
Sorting out your manscaping strategy shouldn't include a whole host of tools or an unhealthy desire to look like a second-rate stripper. All you really need is a basic beard trimmer and enough sense to know that hairless legs are for swimmers and 6-year-olds.

Turn on Bash Smart Completion January 28, 2006
Posted by Carthik in administration, commands, snippets, ubuntu.trackback
The Bash shell has this sweet feature where you can use the TAB key to auto-complete certain things. For example, when I am in my home directory, the following command:
$cd Do[TAB-key]
will automatically yield:
$cd Documents
If you are an absolute novice, like I was, not so long ago, discovering tab completion in the terminal can make you go "Wow!". Wait till you hear the rest now
Though you can use the TAB key to complete the names of files and directories, by default the completion is pretty "dumb". If you have already typed $cd D
you would expect that the tab key would cause only the directory names to be completed, but if I try it on my machine, the tab completion tool uses filenames too.
Now, don't despair! There is now a smart bash tab completion trick you can use. Smart completion even complete the arguments to commands!!
To enable smart completion, edit your /etc/bash.bashrc
file. Uncomment the following lines, by removing the # in the beginning of the lines:
#if [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then
# . /etc/bash_completion
Now you can use tab completion to power your way through commands.
You can even extend bash smart completion to your own favourite commands by using /etc/bash_completion, the "complete" utility and /etc/bash_completion.d . Explaining the nitty-gritty is beyond me. I refer you to the Debian Administration gurus for more information regarding smarter bash completion.

Agreed. I turned the damned thing off because it's a right pain in the arse and kept getting in my way. For example try tab-completing to unzip a file that doesn't end in extension .zip. It won't let you. You either have to rename the file first, or work around it somehow (like type 'ls', then tab-complete the filename, then backup to replace 'ls' with 'unzip').I can't stand software that thinks it knows what I'm doing better than I do.

'True Blood': Snoop Dogg goes Truebie in new video, 'Oh Sookie'
What's there not to like about "True Blood's" Sookie Stackhouse? She's tough. She's hot. She's loyal. She knows when you want a refill before you ask...
Rapper and Truebie, Snoop Dogg, would totally agree. He wants to take Sookie from the Bon Temps streets to in-between-the-sheets in his new video, "Oh Sookie."
The best parts of the video? The five back-up dancer Sookies who show they can get dirty south. Then there's the many ways Snoop disses Bill, Sam and Eric as he tries to glamour our dear Sookie. And if the hip-hop beat doesn't get into your blood, then you must be dead!
We're thinking this one's going platinum. Though vamp-burning silver may be more Snoop's plan.
"True Blood" airs Sundays at 9 p.m. EST on HBO.

Learning how the real business world works is a big part of the annual summer program for high school students, Opportunities to Learn About Business (OLAB). Wabash-educated lawyers and businessmen return to campus for one of the group exercises brings a big dose of humor and reality.
The program, free to participants thanks to sponsorship, brings students from all across Indiana and the nation. More than a third of this year's 60 students are from out of state.
The students learn presentation skills, marketing, finance, economics, and much more during the week. During the course of the week the students must come up with a new mobile device product to manufacture, market, and deliver to retail.
At midweek they must negotiate a labor contract for their manufacturing plants. That's where the Wabash alums participate.
"It's a lot of fun to interact with students who apparently haven't seen a lot of the real world," first-time volunteer Aaron Cook '06 said. "They have to wonder about some of the things we say. We can cite productivity numbers and things we've seen and then we get to see these wide-eyed expressions. But they've been pretty innovative in responding to things so I think it's been a learning experience for me and a whole lot of fun."
The exercise was changed up a bit this year to add consistency to the exercise. Students heard the real-life lawyers, representing union workers, make their demands in front of the group. The students then caucused and had to have one presenter respond. After that give-and-take, the union legal counselors met with each team to iron out details.
The Wabash alums are tough on the students and push them. But the exercises aren't without fun. One alumni pairing, which shall go unnamed, pressed for an employee swimming pool. The students, or management, weren't going to have any of that nonsense and said employees could use the pond behind the plant. The lawyers came back later to demand a jet ski.
But the exercise is real and taken seriously. The students learn that demands can be outrageous at times even in the real world. And the importance of compromise and negotiation is the only way to keep labor and management happy to build a better widget.
Gregg Estell '85 jokingly said he returns each summer to 'torture the youth,' but said in a more serious tone that OLAB is a great program worthy of participation.
"It's just a real opportunity to introduce young students to real life business practices," Estell said. It's really fun to give them feedback on their presentation skills and their negotiation skills. Once we're done with the role playing, providing that honest, direct, feedback that helps them hone their skills is just a lot of fun. And the students typically are very impressive in what they do."
The Wabash men giving up a good portion of their day to play the role of union negotiators included Estell, Cook, Eric Cavanaugh '76, Scott Benedict '98, Jon Pactor '71, Brad Johnson '71, Tim Craft '00, and Dan Witte '92.
Next the students will work on their marketing plan and devise a budget to bring their product to consumers. They must also create a television commercial, which is usually great fun for the participants, as part of their final project.
Graduation ceremonies and awards take place at 2 p.m., Saturday, in the Fine Arts Center.

Whenever I hear people complaining loudly about 'Political Correctness gone mad', I usually respond in the same way as when Sarah Silverman hears someone describe themselves as a "Diva". (Note: NSFW)
'Political Correctness' is actually just an over-used (typically, and strangely, pejorative) buzzword for 'being respectful to people'. And, call me crazy, but I don't think anyone has the right to be disrespectful, rude, sexist, racist or homophobic without consequence.
So, when people complain about "political correctness gone crazy!" I think to myself, "no, you're probably just a c—t."

Four species of horseshoe crabs exist today. Only one species, Limulus polyphemus, is found in North America along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts from Maine to Mexico. The other three species are found in Southeast Asia. Horseshoe crabs are not true crabs at all. Horseshoe crabs are more closely related to arachnids (a group that includes spiders and scorpions) than to crustaceans (a group that includes true crabs, lobsters, and shrimp). Horseshoe crabs are often called "living fossils" because fossils of their ancestors date back almost 450 million years--that's 200 million years before dinosaurs existed.
Despite inhabiting the planet for so long, horseshoe crab body forms have changed very little over all of those years.
The strange anatomy of the horseshoe crab is one of this animal's most notable aspects. Unfortunately, the long, thin, spike-like tail of horseshoe crabs has given this species an unfavorable reputation. Many people view horseshoe crabs as dangerous animals because they have sharp tails. In reality, horseshoe crabs are harmless. Their tails are used primarily to flip themselves upright if they are accidentally overturned.
Horseshoe crabs nest on beaches in Florida and mid-Atlantic states.
Horseshoe crabs are known for their large nesting aggregations, or groups, on beaches particularly in mid-Atlantic states such as Delaware, New Jersey, and Maryland. These nesting aggregations are commonly observed in Florida as well. During the nesting season, principally in spring and summer, male horseshoe crabs move parallel to the shoreline on sandy flats and intercept females as they pass by. A successful male attaches himself to a female by using his specialized front claws, and together they crawl to the beach. Some males do not attach to females, but still have success in fertilizing the female's eggs. The male fertilizes the eggs as the female lays them in a nest in the sand. Males that do not find mates will often swarm mating couples and try to fertilize some of the females' eggs. Most of this nesting activity takes place during high tides in the three days before and after a new or full moon.
Horseshoe crab larvae emerge from their nests several weeks after the eggs are laid. Juvenile horseshoe crabs resemble adults except that their tails are proportionally smaller. The young and adult horseshoe crabs spend most of their time on the sandy bottoms of intertidal flats or zones above the low tide mark and feed on various invertebrates.
Why are horseshoe crabs important?
Horseshoe crabs are an important part of the ecology of coastal communities. During the nesting season, especially in the mid-Atlantic States, horseshoe crab eggs become the major food source for migrating birds. Over 50 percent of the diet of many shorebird species consists of horseshoe crab eggs. Many bird species in Florida have been observed feeding on horseshoe crab eggs. In addition, many fish species rely on horseshoe crab eggs for food.
Horseshoe crabs are extremely important to the biomedical industry because their unique, copper-based blue blood contains a substance called Limulus amebocyte lysate. The substance, which coagulates in the presence of small amounts of bacterial toxins, is used to test for sterility of medical equipment and virtually all intravenous drugs. Research on the compound eyes of horseshoe crabs has led to a better understanding of human vision. The marine life fishery collects live horseshoe crabs for resale as aquarium, research, or educational specimens, and the American eel and whelk fisheries use horseshoe crabs extensively as bait along many parts of the Atlantic coast.
Threats to horseshoe crabs and research efforts Horseshoe crab numbers are declining throughout much of the species range. Although scientists are unsure of the exact causes of this decline, it is probably due to a variety of factors, including the degradation or decrease of habitat.
In 1998, The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission developed a Horseshoe Crab Fishery Management Plan that requires all Atlantic coastal states to identify horseshoe crab nesting beaches. Currently, with the help of the public, biologists at the Fish and Wildlife Research Institute are trying to document nesting sites of horseshoe crabs throughout the state. If you are interested in becoming more involved with the horseshoe crab survey, please visit the Survey for Horseshoe Crab Nesting Beaches in Florida for more information.
FWC Facts:Bay scallops are bivalve molluscs occurring from New England through Texas. In Fla., they can be harvested in Gulf state waters from Hernando Co. to Mexico Beach Canal in Bay Co.

We're thinking about going to see it this weekend as long as I get to see Sex and the City next weekend. :)
Personally, I get more worried that a movie will stink when I see alot of ads. Harrison Ford has been on every talk show known to man over the last 3 days, that makes me a little worried about this latest Indiana Jones movie.
I like adventure movies. It wont dissapoint me. Its a movie not a job interview.
Originally Posted by Jeremy I'll go into it the same way I did Die Hard 4 - expecting a good movie but not necessarily the same kind as the previous versions. As a Die Hard 1, 2 and 3 fan, I thought DH4 was about the best pure action movie there's ever been. I don't have the same expectations for IJ4 but I will certainly allow myself to enjoy it for what it is and not expect it to be the same ole Indy. Afterall, it's Indy plus a lot of mileage and years. I went and saw it this afternoon and that's the mindset that I went in with. I knew after 20 years it couldn't really compete with the originals but I was totally happy with the outcome - it was still a great movie although this one may have been a little 'out there' than the previous movies. Hell, the crowd actually applauded when the movie ended which is something I've never seen before at a movie. I wonder though if we'll see a spinoff with the way the movie ended. I don't want to elaborate due to those who haven't seen it yet. Anyone else see this coming?
Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and then beat you with experience.
That's a new term that been coined for what George Lucas does to people. Basically, you take a really good childhood memory, like Star Wars or Indiana Jones, and you "molest" it with a horrible new movie in the same series (in particular, think 'Phantom Menace').
Like a good ISU fan, I have high hopes for the new Terminator Trilogy in two years - they just signed the main star recently.
CFH HMagic bball season. Let my fred's Four Horsemen ride.
Just got back from it ... it took me by surprise how it had the old "indy" feel, with the wise cracks and decent amount of improbable stunts and bullets that always miss at close range. In that, it was exactly like the first 3. I felt like they gave up at the end ... I mean no real explanation of the events. I'm cool with an alien spaceship ... but wrap things up a little better, wasn't the russian gal supposed to have some control over this thing? or did the aliens set them up with the whole "ultimate power" promise just to get their head back? solid movie, not hands down better than any of the others but definately not too much worse. enjoyable time.
Horrible. Aliens and space ships do not belong in an Indy movie.
The artist formerly known as SouthernHawk
I liked it. A little too over the top at times, but it was a fun time. Wasnt exactly cohesive, but really enjoyed seeing Indy back on screen beating people up and stuff.
There were some good parts that brought back memories, but overall not a good movie. I found myself just not caring what happened next for the most part. I remember hating the Germans, hoping Indiana would figure out the pieces of the puzzle, etc. - but this time I just really didn't care.
We saw it last night. It was pretty good, a good addition to the first three, however, I thought it was a little too far fetched for an Indy movie. SPOILERS - DETAIL DISCUSSION... One has to keep in mind that this takes place in the late 50's when aliens and thoughts of space visitors were really taking off so it ties in with that pretty well. I don't think that the finality of the aliens coming to life and the ship flying away were really the best thing for this franchise though. In a way I had the same feeling I did with the 3rd Pirates movie - a little more sci-fi and unbelievable than the others (the "creatures" and stuff in the 3rd pirates was just a little further out there than I usually prefer). Overall it was a fun movie, fit with the tradition of the franchise, but left a little to be desired for the way it all wrapped up. I did think the acting and writing was pretty good, albeit a little corny to fit the standard of the franchise. Surprisingly, I though Cate Blanchett did the least impressive job throughout. Shia LaBeouf did a good job considering it's a completely different type of movie for him. I can't say that I think he would be the best pick for the future Indy though.
A program isn't built on one player and it doesn't succeed because of one player, thus a program won't fail if it doesn't get that one player.

So a thousand year old "knight" and an invisable bridge are any better or less far-fetched? If you didn't like this one, you wouldn't think much of the other 3 after rewatching them. It did a much better job of staying with the "style" than say, the Star Wars movies for example.
I'm leaving in an hour to go catch a matinee.
Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.
I thought it was a fun movie. Sure, a lot of it could be predictable, but it was still fun. We paid $2 for the two of us, so I'm sure we got more than our money's worth. Seeing that fight in the jungle---Awesome!! Add the character moments that got included in that sequence, and the gross-out part, and you've got something that fits perfectly in an Indiana Jones movie.
Since we are an elite team now, let's go get that One Cyclone Moment. Make this one for the ages! http://rememberingdoria.wordpress.com/

The Treasure of the Safit Chir
For over two centuries we have struggled to understand the scope of Afghanistan's mineral wealth. Now geologists, if they can determine what lies beneath the nation's ground, might also help bring stability to the surface
Early one morning in June, just a week after the New York Times reported claims by U.S. officials that Afghanistan was perched atop enough copper, gold, iron, lithium, and assorted rare minerals and gemstones "to fundamentally alter the Afghan economy and perhaps the Afghan war itself," I made my way with a local guide to the illegal mines of the Safit Chir, an emerald-rich line of ridges 100 miles northeast of Kabul. After a three-hour climb up trails navigable only on foot or by donkey, we greeted several miners, and one of them led us past the dark maws of the tunnels to the edge of a ridge, the better to see the places where his nation's wealth might be hidden.
As we looked out over steep slopes dotted with purple delphinium, the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas all around us, Abdul Latif told me that he had not always been a miner. He had become a mujahideen commander after the Soviet invasion in 1979, he said, and he'd faced the enemy's artillery and helicopters in these very mountains: land mines and the bones of men were buried out there, and older things too. Haroon, another miner, said that while he was digging a new tunnel several years ago he came across ancient buried walls, the chamber of a house made with neat stone masonry. He found a clay amphora there and smashed it in the hopes of finding gold, but it contained only dust.
Afghanistan's "artisanal" miners, the gem-seeking equivalent of subsistence farmers, have been extracting and exporting precious stones for more than seven millennia; archaeologists have discovered lapis lazuli from Afghanistan in ancient burial sites as far away as Egypt. For the 3,000 or so artisanal miners working today, the job remains difficult. They have no property rights and keep their operations hidden from the central government, which in any case has little control over the region. Fatal accidents from blasting, cave-ins and avalanches are not uncommon, and the miners survive on a diet of stale bread, tea, chickpeas, rice and hashish, brought up once a week by donkey. In the summer they live in small stone huts with tarpaulin roofs; in winter, they move down into the mines themselves. For these efforts, they produce gemstones with a market value of about $2.75 million annually, and probably keep about a tenth of that for themselves.
That there is mineral wealth in Afghanistan is as obvious as the stone in Haroon's hand. But no one knows just how much. The Times cited a newly arrived Pentagon task force to support the claim that Afghanistan possesses "nearly $1 trillion in untapped mineral deposits," and the Afghan government itself puts it closer to $3 trillion. But such numbers can't be found in any published scientific papers. "You can read every one of our reports, and there's no dollar figure attached to them," says Jack Medlin, the geologist who coordinated the 2007 U.S. Geological Survey work in Afghanistan that informed the Pentagon estimate.
"From what we can tell, someone took the estimated tonnage and looked up commodity prices for that particular mineral at that time," Medlin says. "You begin to go through a multiplication and addition process, and someone arrived at a trillion-dollar figure."
The Pentagon task force estimate also obscured another important fact: Knowing about something is not the same as having it. Geologists and mining professionals carefully distinguish resources—the actual amount of a given material that exists in the ground—from reserves, the amount of that resource that can be extracted at profit with current technology under current conditions. The Pentagon, however, had simply tallied up the current market value of all the minerals buried under one of the most rugged, remote, undeveloped and lawless countries on Earth.
The result, not uncommon in Afghanistan, was the promise of a rich reward with no accounting of what it would take to obtain it. The country desperately needs the resources to rebuild, but future investors will demand a far more careful analysis of the costs and benefits. If scientists can determine what really lies beneath the ground—what can be extracted under the challenging "current conditions" of poverty, chaos and war—perhaps Afghanistan can negotiate its own fate.

If the people in this and its surrounding countries would quit their "religious war" B.S. and get mining they could pull themselves out of poverty. Then again they would just fight over minerals. We should "adopt" the whole area, make it a province, use the proceeds to impeach Obama, and pull our own country out of recession. IMO
"In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before.".. Paul Dirac
wouldn't all those mineral deposits be worth more if irradiated by a nuclear bomb? jk. my favorite part of the story was: "the miners survive on a diet of stale bread, tea, chickpeas, rice and hashish, brought up once a week by donkey. "
It's comments like the above that just cut me to the core. I'm so tired of the xenophobia, prejudice and stereotyping. It would do everyone a great deal of good to look inward. Deal with your own downfalls first. When you're perfect, then you can judge. Don't people want to get past all of this hate? Why must we keep salting the wound? Besides, when you judge others, all you are doing is negating yourself.
@imabeast: How about I come and "adopt" everything you own? I can sell it all and use the proceeds to send you off to Afghanistan. Maybe then you'd realize that our government is a whole hell of a lot better than what most people are forced to contend with.
It is not economic production that keeps Afghanistan down, but a culture of endemic corruption. The heroin market has been funding the country for some time, but the money does not trickle down due to corruption.
True, it is easier to regulate a legitimate industry than drug production, but if the corruption is the same (and the article highlights the difficulties had withing the industry), then the outcome will invariably lead to the same depredations.
No one questions that China's railline and industry will be secure - but that is because China will never question the means or the human cost on the production end. So long as the good flow, China will turn a blind eye to humanitarian abuse, corruption, and general thuggery. Not that China condons such things - it just doesn't care if other do them.
You wanna talk about hate? Why dont you ask any muslim in the world, the real reason why no christian or none believer in islam is, or ever has been allowed to even step foot in mecca!
and note this is NOT A RECENT EVENT!
so before you go lecturing someone who recently had 3000 of his fellow citizens killed because a group of muslim people that just loves america soooooooooo much wanted to say hi and leave roses at the door!
I wish people would stop lying to themselves they put all of us in this wonderful country of America and our way of life in joepardy every time they cowtow to these muslim fools that have no regarde for our way of life, our lives, there kids lives, there families lives, or there own lives!
always stand up
always stand out

In the absence of the Red Menace, we must create for ourselves another boogey-man.
Boogey-men are so easy to find, we change them often. We need only find one that fits the current weather.
By the way. I was just wondering: Why can't non-Mormons can't go in the temple? Do Mormons hate our way of life?
you guys are so jokes! stop being blinded by patriotism! the only good thing about a country is the good people who live in it, the people who govern it are skimming the cream off the top! you get taxed for them to make weapons so they can profit from using them in war, and reap the resourses that they steal as a result, or the from the contracts of re-building of the infrastructure that theyve destroyed! why is there a war in afganistan anyway? radical islamics come from an ideology not a country, the uk shoe bomber was british-jamacian, how come the uk didnt get attacked? you need to start asking questions instead ok acting like a bull to a red rag!
Dear Awjanua
I assume you also hate all Christians because of this terrorist attack by a Christian extremist that killed two of your fellow citizens.
Turn the other cheek, and all that.
no actually i hate anyone that would set out to kill poeple for no other reason then blind ignorant religios belief! however looking out into the human multitude, and using communsence judgement i am inclind to say that the most intolarent and easy to radicalize of religions would have to be that of the islamic faith, and yes there were Americans kill in the 9-11 attacks that were muslim, hence forth i stand by the credo dont kill or atempt to kill people because alah, god, jesus, bohda, john smith, the devil, or any other deity told you to and you wont be hated!!!
on the hate point [Londonberry] no where in my previous statement did i say that i hated anyone.
There are jackasses of every political and religious strip. They don't ban Lutheranism in Europe just because Luther's book on The Jews and Their Lies was the core of Nazi Ideology, so why do we try to ban Muslims? I mean the Holocaust caused 4000 times as many deaths as the bombing of the Twin Towers so wouldn't that be a much stronger base?
Ah! Blind, ignorant religious belief.
The same that put the Native Americans to the Spanish sword.
Western History since the all of Rome is rife with wars fought by Christians who knew that they were right and that their god was on their side.
Ignorance is bliss.
400 years ago?
What was going on in the 18th Century? Blankets. Yellow fever. Smallpox. Sound familiar? British Christians were deliberately infecting the Native Americans and, well, killing them.
What was happening as we claimed our "Manifest Destiny" at the outset of the 19th Century?
What was going on 150 years ago?
How many Native American children in the US were taken from their families, forced into boarding schools and forcibly taught to be Christians -- right up into the early 20th Century?
What was going on in the 20th Century in "Christian" Europe? Peace and Christian brotherhood?
Christianity hasn't exactly been lily white and as pure as many want to think for the last several centuries.
(Oh, by the way. Islam's birthday is about 600 years after Christianity's. Kinda makes you think, doesn't it? Christianity's younger cousin gets the whip for being no more unruly than the older cousin?)
Interestingly, after being shown kindness by the monks of St Catherine's Monastery in the Sinai, Muhammad produced a rather lengthy set of rules for Muslims that basically said that he held Christians in high esteem and that nobody was to molest them as citizens of his realm. He even said that if a Christian woman were to marry a Muslim, it had to be with her approval. Furthermore, she was not to be hindered from practicing her religion. No one was allowed to oblige Christians to fight. In fact, Muslims were to fight for them. He said Muslims were to be "with" those who adopted Christianity.
Of course, religions being what they are, they can be, and generally are, perverted to justify just about anything. Much as many Christians have, throughout their history, been somewhat less than Christ-like, the same can be said of many Muslims. Holy books can be used as much to justify evil as they can to exhort people to do good.
The tragic thing about religion is that those who seek most fervently to achieve "holiness" generally achieve "a**hole-iness".
Christianity will get back around to its sinister side -- it's already headed that way.
well I have to say I am generally against nation building and against the war in iraq and afghanistan.Also I detest the hyporcritical moralism that comes out of washington and the veiled imperialism.But I think one thing changes my mind :the taliban.I belive that there is no reconciling with people who cut off peoples body parts becuase they ran away from an abusive relationship(time magaizine).Simply put the taliban ideology is sickenly unhuman and I really don't know how you can justify even reconciling with people who cooperate with them.The current way the U.S. is running the war is obviously innefcient because it has acted as a money hole for large defense corporations like KBR and such.If perhaps new ideas like exporting affordable region appropriate soulution like what their doing at M.I.T. d lab (cook stoves) I could concievably support nation building.Also it would be wise to stregthen regional goverments with more arms and yes there needs to be a partition that is simply the fact.Also I would like to point out that sacrificing human rights or more specifically women's rights is unthinkable even when you trying to "accomadate" local traditions.I really dislike when people say it's cutural imperliasm, disrespecting the rights of women to do and say and move freely must be respected universaly I do think we have the right to impose that no matter what the locals think,complete patriarchal societys can't exist in 21st if we wish to move foward.Lastly with the minerals Afghanistan I think we shouldn't import our wasteful industrial model on them.I think that a more flexible and less coporate dominated system(small capitlism) must emerge in devoloping worlds simply because its better and takes less time also it doesn't allow for the elite to control the people in a destructive way.
Corruption is an economically efficient mechanism that reimburses the political infrastructure for the risks they run doing their jobs. Does anyone contend that grafting political appointees owe no fealty to their hierarchy? Does anyone think that an under-compensated or uncompensated administration would be stronger politically? Or perhaps another bumbling colonial administration like the one Bush installed in Iraq is the answer? Hardly. We should encourage corruption, not impede it.
We need to complain less about local matters that are really none of our concern and focus on the mission at hand: destroying the Taliban and Al Qaeda.
Let's make our enemies pay and allow our allies to enrich themselves wherever they can and be glad for them. The turnover in the Afghan minerals office is a device to spread the wealth, not a measure of criminal intent. Work with it. Don't make waves that make us unwelcome upstarts in a harsh country we can never understand and never need to bother. We are there to kill our enemies who came to our country and attacked us. Let's accomplish our goal of a safer world and get back home as soon as we can.
of course people are going to forget the whole topic of this story and focus on what they dont like about this person or that person. i ask really? must you people bicker amongst your selves. this, your worst than me or he is the anti-christ this, is not going to lead any one to world peace or any resemblece of it.
i pesronally thought it was quite intresting that such deposits where in such a place.

Romance & Fun in the Sun
November 23, 2012
Spend the afternoon floating around on your luxurious and private catamaran while you sail and snorkel to your heart's content. You'll swim in the crystal clear blue waters and experience an amazing variety of sea life such as green sea turtles. Whether you choose to lounge on a "spectra net" above the water or spend most of your time in the water, it's all up to you. Then it's off on a sailing adventure to look for dolphins and whales*. I can arrange an open bar and picnic lunch for you both to enjoy on board if you wish and rest assured that all of the equipment you will need such as snorkel gear and guide will be included. Just wear your bathing suit and sandals. The normal duration for the snorkel and sail is about 2 ½ hours but I highly recommend reserving 3 or more hours. Trust me - once you get out there the time will fly and you'll be glad that you opted to stay out there a little longer. *Whales travel through the area between the months of Nov-May.
