The Afghan War Diary (AWD for short) consists of messages from several important US military communications systems. The messaging systems have changed over time; as such reporting standards and message format have changed as well. This reading guide tries to provide some helpful hints on interpretation and understanding of the messages contained in the AWD.
Most of the messages follow a pre-set structure that is designed to make automated processing of the contents easier. It is best to think of the messages in the terms of an overall collective logbook of the Afghan war. The AWD contains the relevant events, occurrences and intelligence experiences of the military, shared among many recipients. The basic idea is that all the messages taken together should provide a full picture of a days important events, intelligence, warnings, and other statistics. Each unit, outpost, convoy, or other military action generates report about relevant daily events. The range of topics is rather wide: Improvised Explosives Devices encountered, offensive operations, taking enemy fire, engagement with possible hostile forces, talking with village elders, numbers of wounded, dead, and detained, kidnappings, broader intelligence information and explicit threat warnings from intercepted radio communications, local informers or the afghan police. It also includes day to day complaints about lack of equipment and supplies.
The description of events in the messages is often rather short and terse. To grasp the reporting style, it is helpful to understand the conditions under which the messages are composed and sent. Often they come from field units who have been under fire or under other stressful conditions all day and see the report-writing as nasty paperwork, that needs to be completed with little apparent benefit to expect. So the reporting is kept to the necessary minimum, with as little type-work as possible. The field units also need to expect questions from higher up or disciplinary measures for events recorded in the messages, so they will tend to gloss over violations of rules of engagement and other problematic behavior; the reports are often detailed when discussing actions or interactions by enemy forces. Once it is in the AWD messages, it is officially part of the record - it is subject to analysis and scrutiny. The truthfulness and completeness especially of descriptions of events must always be carefully considered. Circumstances that completely change the meaning of an reported event may have been omitted.
The reports need to answer the critical questions: Who, When, Where, What, With whom, by what Means and Why. The AWD messages are not addressed to individuals but to groups of recipients that are fulfilling certain functions, such as duty officers in a certain region. The systems where the messages originate perform distribution based on criteria like region, classification level and other information. The goal of distribution is to provide those with access and the need to know, all of the information that relevant to their duties. In practice, this seems to be working imperfectly. The messages contain geo-location information in the forms of latitude-longitude, military grid coordinates and region.
The messages contain a large number of abbreviations that are essential to understanding its contents. When browsing through the messages, underlined abbreviations pop up an little explanation, when the mouse is hovering over it. The meanings and use of some shorthands have changed over time, others are sometimes ambiguous or have several meanings that are used depending on context, region or reporting unit. If you discover the meaning of a so far unresolved acronym or abbreviations, or if you have corrections, please submit them to email@example.com.
An especially helpful reference to names of military units and task-forces and their respective responsibilities can be found at http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/ops/enduring-freedom.htm
The site also contains a list of bases, airfields http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/facility/afghanistan.htm Location names are also often shortened to three-character acronyms.
Messages may contain date and time information. Dates are mostly presented in either US numeric form (Year-Month-Day, e.g. 2009-09-04) or various Euro-style shorthands (Day-Month-Year, e.g. 2 Jan 04 or 02-Jan-04 or 2jan04 etc.).
Times are frequently noted with a time-zone identifier behind the time, e.g. "09:32Z". Most common are Z (Zulu Time, aka. UTC time zone), D (Delta Time, aka. UTC + 4 hours) and B (Bravo Time, aka UTC + 2 hours). A full list off time zones can be found here: http://www.timeanddate.com/library/abbreviations/timezones/military/
Other times are noted without any time zone identifier at all. The Afghanistan time zone is AFT (UTC + 4:30), which may complicate things further if you are looking up messages based on local time.
Finding messages relating to known events may be complicated by date and time zone shifting; if the event is in the night or early morning, it may cause a report to appear to be be misfiled. It is advisable to always look through messages before and on the proceeding day for any event.

At 21:29Z TF Chosin reports 2x enemy pax with large bags moving suspiciously vic a previous IED location (in an attempt to avoid a mounted counter IED patrol multiple times). TF Chosin received intel earlier of a pending IED and SAF in the same area, and attempted to have the 2x enemy pax stop for questioning (shouting commands in Pashtu to stop, and firing a warning shot). The 2x enemy pax did not stop,TF Chosin engaged them, wounding both individuals. As the TF Chosin moved to exploit the 2x EWIA, the mounted element provided overwatch, and during the search of the 2x EWIA, the mounted element had an IED detonate vic their position. There was no damage to equipment or personnel from the blast (the IED was placed in a rock wall, possibly reducing the amount of potential damage to CF). The mounted element assessed the IED site, and continued to overwatch the sniper team with the EWIAs. The mounted element is moving to the EWIA location to evacuate them for further treatment, and recover their suspicious Bags/materials to ABAD for further exploitation (Due to the unknown nature of the materials, exploitation will be conducted by EOD at ABAD, but the following is known ATT: First Bag: Metal box/crate, of PKM and AK ammunition; Second Bag: small cylindrical objects).

George's Bar & Grill A little pricey, but worth the cost. |
Hey PB, you remember correctly. Yerevan has been around for over a dozen years... the owner just keeps plugging away serving old world dishes. It is tucked away in the Von's shopping center and hasn't changed much over the years. |
Another small Armenian ma and pa restaurant... great flavors in classic dishes, humble furnishings, difficult to communicate with owner - I love it. Yerevan Restaurant |
Looks like a grand remodel, new kitchen, fixtures and TWO menus. No more secret list of the chef's specialties, although I am sure he will still cook for special requests. Here is the link to a recent article in the local paper about the reopening. (hope the link stays good for a while) |
Hear, hear. Thank goodness for our holes-in-the wall. My wallet thanks them and I definitely derive more pleasure patronizing these survivors of the economic sludge that has wiped out dozens of our establishments in the last few years... literally dozens - PolarBear started a list as they went down, but it was heartbreaking to keep the list going. So get out and help these survivors when you can Fresno. |
Good Chinese take-out in Fresno ... and the old reliable, Imperial Garden - Blackstone just south of Herndon. Good value, fresh ingredients. They do a lot of takeout but can get your order ready usually within 25 minutes. I almost always call it in, 559-435-4406. |
Korea Market in Fresno (Chow secret?!) Thanks for the news about where to get Korean fixings. Sad to hear Yummy's near Herndon and Blackstone closed. That used to be my little Korean hideaway. |
Ten Things Anthony Bourdain and David Chang Hate I fantasize about having a job like his, and your'e right he has been around a long time. But part of the fantasy revolves around not having to be taken seriously beyond comments like 'that tastes really good' or 'this is the way it has been prepared for generations'. He skates over the deep stuff and I like him for the lack of pretense. |
Ten Things Anthony Bourdain and David Chang Hate Bourdain is grabbing his 15 minutes, and we all know it. I like watching his show but it is running out of juice and the snarkiness will only carry him so far. So let's not give him any more cultural significance than he really carries. sar•casm [Late Latin sarcasmus, from Greek sarkasmos, from sarkazein, to bite the lips in rage, from sarx, sark-, flesh.] |
Top Chef - Las Vegas - Ep. #10 - 10/28/09 (Spoilers) It now seems right that Kevin should go all the way. Aside from having the passion and skills (and palate) he let the audience know that his family all live on the same street, and grandma still cooks breakfast for the clan every morning. Who can beat that mojo? |
I wasn't sure where to post this but when I searched for Hmong food, this thread came up on the list. Today's Fresno Bee has a nice article on Hmong food and a book recently released about this 'mysterious' cuisine. Here is the link to Joan Obra's article. Sometimes the link will go right through, sometimes the newspaper will ask you to register (free) to access the page. It is a hassle but Obra's articles are worth it. |
Top Chef presenter, enlighten me Padma has been part of the formula that has made this show very popular. And that from a relatively obscure cable channel. So love her or hate her, the producers don't want to change a working mixture of beauty (I wouldn't turn down a date with her), adequate eloquence (I can understand what she says) and celebrity (with her famous scar and prior marriage to a decent author who had a fatwa on his head for many years). America loves this quirky mix of judges and hostess and bottom line, the food and the chefs are getting the exposure like never before. |
IHOP - paired with their double BLT. |
Help! A glorious 13-day honeymoon on Kauai and Maui - where. to. EAT!? Congratulations - here is a fairly recent thread on Kauai dining. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/533702 For fresh food and farmers' markets, here is another short thread - Enjoy. |
I have to admit I have been in love with Rosa (co-owner) since she was a waitress at a Mexican joint at Marks and Shaw in the late 80's. She still can't speak English very well but she serves up really comfortable meals. This family is passionate about their food. They unashamedly dedicate their excellence to the memory of their daughter who died in an accident near the old Guadalajara on Weber. I heartily agree the locals should support this business. |
Bourdain in Thailand-I'm SOOO excited! I liked the episode but I can see where the format is starting to wear thin. You've got to give it to Bourdain though, the sonofagun lives the life. I liked it when he stated his personal foodie philosophy that he was going to try stuff at least once. It even seemed the food was better when he was in an area experiencing social unrest - like Thailand and when he was in Sri Lanka. |
Serve it on Kauai's north shore. |
Kauai, where to get great food and fresh fish I forgot to mention - if you are on the north shore, this is the place I usually shop for fish or steaks - Hanalei Dolphin Fish Market. Then there are the Foodlands in Princeville and Kapaa for the rest of your needs. |
Kauai, where to get great food and fresh fish Here is a link to the different markets - also look for the links to the local eateries (click on Kauai dining). The sooner you can go local, the better your vacation will be. http://www.trykauai.com/Kauai_Farmers... Here is just one of the threads from another visitor - |
While mom was still with us, on every one of my birthdays, she would fix her special chicken curry and serve it with mango chutney and fried eggplant. It was the main dish for my birthday treat for 40 years or so... and every year she would ask what I wanted for my birthday dinner. I miss her - and for some reason mango chutney has a special spot in my heart. |
In my last post to this thread, I gushed about Major Dickason's blend. There are some Blue Mountain and Kona coffees I would like to have all the time, but the mortgage comes first. I still love Dickason's, but I stumbled on a close second for flavor and value. I know the New York crowd has had Chock Full O' Nuts - original blend - around for years. But I just tried my first cup and this is a great everyday blend. I get giddy when I come across good stuff that has been around for ages. |
Favorite Julia Child "moment"? There were a couple of times when she would sternly tell Jacques he shouldn't pour the brandy for the flambe directly from the bottle. She warned him the flames could jump back at the bottle and cause an explosion. Jacques would just smile and look at her sideways. Then I noticed a few episodes later that he would indulge her and use another container to apply the brandy, and he would smile. They had a great relationship. My favorite moments... when the food was was done and Julia would take her first bites of the dish - the look on her face as she savored the food - priceless. |
The best kitchen product ad ever- Slap Chop! Okay - here is my humble request for a DJ Steve Porter remix of Julia Child and Jacques Pepin from one of their old TV series shows. |
I'm with you. I get really senimental about Pho 99 because it was the first location I found in Fresno... and it still serves a good bowl. If you want to try other places, you are already in the right corner. Just up 1st Street are a bunch of restaurants which serve decent pho, you've just got to try and compare. Then you can even go south on 1st to B & K Asian Kitchen for Thai and Lao dishes, and they also serve pho ( and really good laap). Here is an old thread which discussed some of the pho restaurants in town. And I also want to put my vote in for a crawl. |
Fresno: Where to find the best...? I also don't know what restaurants regularly serve raw oysters, and I would probably be more inclined to buy them myself and fix them up the way I want. So my suggestion is Central Fish, which is now a part of the American Fish and Seafood Company network. They ship their oysters in daily. As for the spaghetti and marinara with meat sauce, I like the family chain - Di Cicco's (gasp!!!). I know they share supplies and menus, but I seem to gravitate to the one at West and Herndon. |
The sad truth about "fresh" orange juice ... no worries, as long as the vodka is from a freshly opened bottle, and the ice cubes were made from fresh water. |
Suggestions for nice dinner in Big Sur/Carmel? Can't beat the view at the California Market - at the Highlands Inn. The food is top notch. |
Cooking a whole pig this weekend If you do get a China Box, here is a whole series of videos for prepping and cooking. I am so jealous. I would prefer JungMann's open pit, and sitting with the pig for 5 or 6 hours ... along with friends and a good variety of summer cocktails. A whole pig is an event, both the cooking and eating. |
Seeking Japanese Market, and other asian goods in Merced/Modesto/Fresno ... and don't forget the delightful Chinese bakery right next to R-N. They have fresh baozi (siopao) eveyday - I think they are closed Mondays. They also sell barbecued and roasted pork by the pound, and chopped to your request. There a quite a few links to SE Asian spots in Fresno, here is one on places I've tried regularly. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/418227 ... and here is a recent one on a Lao spot which I tried this week and really liked. |
Any Remotely Good Malaysian Food Around Here? Decent Thai and Malaysian - Link to their menu |

Mistress of Mistresses | ||||||||
E.R. Eddison | ||||||||
Orion Millennium, 401 pages | ||||||||
A review by William Thompson
Mistress of Mistresses opens with the strangely beautiful and evocative "Overture": observations
held at a wake that looking back upon the life of the deceased, are yet oddly free of time's constraints, reflecting
the natural setting of the chapter, an Arctic summer where the landscape and light are suspended seasonally "betwixt
sunset and sunrise." This foreshadows metaphors of setting and theme and atmosphere that are to run
throughout the novel, acting and announcing a veil through which will be perceived shiftings that take place
between the "real" world and alternate and coeval realities, much in the way that in earlier folklore
a curtain of mist or shimmering twilight divides our world from that of the Other. Drawing upon the
cinematographer's knowledge of the "magic hour," Eddison's worlds shift and almost imperceptibly
alter within the evanescent transience of light, tricks of illumination that transform and remind both his
characters and the reader that what is seen or read is but a matter or moment of perception and experience,
changing and yet ineluctably changeless. The coexisting mutability of the author's worlds is announced
immediately following the wake, where we rejoin the deceased, Lessingham, in a Renaissance-like world
gripped in the throes and intrigue of a contested succession, where the death and life that preceded has not
taken place, and yet odd glimmerings of its memory can be momentarily glimpsed; indeed, later within the
novel existing simultaneously. Nor, if one is familiar with Eddison's work, is this the only time one
encounters this character: as here, he can be found elsewhere introducing the secondary world in
Ouroboros, and is himself an incarnation or double for both the earlier Menzentius and his son,
Barganax, all of whom exists as avatars of divine principles, both male and female, at once master and mistress.
If some of this smacks of mysticism, there is a certain mystical quality to Eddison's work, an embracing of
deity within a sphinx-like riddling of themes, experienced as if in a waking dream, and disguised by a
blurring of boundaries, both thematic and narrative, the divine remaining occult and ineffable, though
notably lacking the religious overtones and morality of his contemporaries, Tolkien and Lewis, both of
whom Eddison knew. Here there is no guiding principle of Good and Evil, but instead, as in
Ouroboros, a feeding upon itself, an almost ritual re-enactment in which the experience of existence
in all its varied manifestations and guises supersedes any justification or informing philosophic or
religious framework for the actions of its characters. There is a sense of the primary characters
living their lives to the fullest, free of conditions, allowing themselves -- no, insisting as by
natural right -- to fully participate in the world in which they find themselves, and a recognition
that if some guiding principle exists, it is beyond mortal scope or comprehension, unable to be
apprehended in mortal terms. Where deity exists, it draws from the classical, and remains just
as seemingly capricious and inscrutable.
If there are any attributes exalted within Eddison's work, it is that of beauty and nobility, though the
latter is defined by notions more analogous to having "stepped up to the plate" than chivalry
or benevolence of purpose. Heroism here is characterized by a self-interested defiance yet
acceptance of the possibility of fate, having a hand in one's destiny, so to speak, even while
acknowledging the existence of forces and circumstances beyond one's control, a suspicion of chessmen
moved across the board. Even the main villain of the narrative, the Vicar Horius Parry, possesses
a brutish dignity that Martin's Gregor Clegane would understand. This absence of
traditional "virtues" led some of Eddison's contemporaries to criticize him for espousing
an amoral hedonism. And there is little question that the author revels in the pageantry and
pleasures of his characters, depicting fetes and palaces with a detailed splendour rarely, if ever,
equaled. Further, his descriptions of feminine beauty border upon obsession, an almost
fetishistic fascination when it comes to the line of a throat, the tilt of a chin. But the
true richness of his writing is reserved for his imagery of the natural world, which he lavishes
with a vivid detail and a keenness of observation that misses not a nuance of movement, form, colour
or light. And he writes with an unfeigned romanticism that makes the efforts of some contemporary
authors, such as Marillier or Haydon, appear crude and flaccid by comparison, spiced and garnished
with a dash of eroticism.
Nonetheless, as in his own day, this novel will hardly whet the appetites of everyone. Eddison writes
with a cadenced flow of language lost to the spare prose and business letter epigrams that have followed
Hemingway: rare today the compound complex sentence, or layered constructions of thought or
image. Scarcely is anything said simply, both speech and description labyrinthine, though one
might argue this reflects the riddling nature of the whole. And his style of writing would have
been considered dense and floral even by the standards of the late 19th
century, at times evincing great beauty of imagery and expression, only to turn in rout into convolutions
of language guaranteed to frustrate. Therefore, those who venture into this work will need to be
prepared to read closely, at times going over the occasional passage, as well as willing to accept the
abundant use of archaisms and erudite references and allusions with which the author delights. The
rewards of this, for those who are willing, is a work that in many ways is idiosyncratic and singular
compared to the mass of genre fantasy that's followed, and, in part due to the language, as well as the
author's more obvious and complicated literary intentions, will offer up new discoveries each time one
chooses to reread it.
William Thompson is a writer of speculative fiction, as yet unpublished, although he remains hopeful. In addition to pursuing his writing, he is in the degree program in information science at Indiana University. |

Rather than attempting to describe all the different hardware configurations which are supported for SPARC, this section contains general information and pointers to where additional information can be found.
Debian 4.0 supports twelve major architectures and several variations of each architecture known as "flavors".

This document covers installation for the SPARC architecture. If you are looking for information on any of the other Debian-supported architectures take a look at the Debian-Ports pages.
Sparc-based hardware is divided into a number of different subarchitectures, identified by one of the following names: sun4, sun4c, sun4d, sun4m, sun4u or sun4v. The following list describes what machines they include and what level of support may be expected for each of them.
These subarchitectures include some very old 32-bit machines, which are no longer supported. For a complete list please consult the Wikipedia SPARCstation page.
sun4m is the only 32-bit subarchitecture (sparc32) that is currently supported. The most popular machines belonging to this class are Sparcstation 4, 5, 10 and 20.
Note that symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) — the ability to run processes on multiple processors — is not supported on this hardware, due to stability problems with such configurations. The available uniprocessor (UP) sparc32 kernel will boot fine on multiprocessor machines, although it will activate and use only the first CPU.
This subarchitecture includes all 64-bit machines (sparc64) based on the UltraSparc processor and its clones. Most of the machines are well supported, even though for some you may experience problems booting from CD due to firmware or bootloader bugs (this problem may be worked around by using netbooting). Use the sparc64 or sparc64-smp kernel in UP and SMP configurations respectively.
This is the newest addition to the Sparc family, which includes machines based on the Niagara multi-core CPUs. At the moment such CPUs are only available in T1000 and T2000 servers by Sun, and are well supported. Use the sparc64-smp kernel.
Note that Fujitsu's SPARC64 CPUs used in PRIMEPOWER family of servers are not supported due to lack of support in the Linux kernel.
Debian's support for graphical interfaces is determined by the underlying support found in X.Org's X11 system. Most AGP, PCI and PCIe video cards work under X.Org. Details on supported graphics buses, cards, monitors, and pointing devices can be found at http://xorg.freedesktop.org/. Debian 4.0 ships with X.Org version 7.1.
Most graphics options commonly found on Sparc-based machines are supported.
X.org graphics drivers are available for sunbw2, suncg14, suncg3, suncg6,
sunleo and suntcx framebuffers, Creator3D and Elite3D cards (sunffb driver),
PGX24/PGX64 ATI-based video cards (ati driver), and PermediaII-based cards
(glint driver). To use an Elite3D card with X.org you additionally need to
install the afbinit
package, and read the documentation
included with it on how to activate the card.
It is not uncommon for a Sparc machine to have two graphics cards in a default configuration. In such a case there is a possibility that the Linux kernel will not direct its output to the card initially used by the firmware. The lack of output on the graphical console may then be mistaken for a hang (usually the last message seen on console is 'Booting Linux...'). One possible solution is to physically remove one of the video cards; another option is to disable one of the cards using a kernel boot parameter. Also, if graphical output is not required or desired, serial console may be used as an alternative. On some systems use of serial console can be activated automatically by disconnecting the keyboard before booting the system.

Eating Disorders: Malnutrition Tests - Topic Overview
As a part of the physical exam for eating disorders, a doctor may order certain tests to see whether your body is generally healthy. These may include blood or urine tests to check:
- Electrolyte levels. Electrolytes are minerals, such as potassium, calcium, and sodium. A severe imbalance of electrolytes can lead to seizures, an irregular heartbeat, muscle weakness, and other problems.
- Levels of iron, sugar, protein, and fat.
- The function of the kidneys, liver, and thyroid gland.
- Levels of certain hormones, such as luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in women and testosterone in men.
- Levels of vitamins and minerals in the body.
A doctor may also test whether you have difficulty digesting certain foods, such as milk and dairy products.

Why are you a fan of chemical instead of laser peels?
I think the chemical skin peel is one of the greatest gifts of cosmetic surgery to patients because it takes old skin and makes it new. It fulfills ambition that human beings have had for thousands of years, to not have wrinkles. It's been around for 50 years in the United States, but there's basically only a limited number of practitioners have been interested enough to master it and perform it regularly. But when you pick the right patient, meaning the patient with the right color skin, the right thickness skin, all the ingredients of safety, you have a very happy patient. A happy patient for many years.
Now, about 10 or 15 years ago was delivered a new technology to hopefully erase wrinkles instead of this chemical process which is essentially just the application of an acid to the skin, a laser. An invisible beam of high powered light, which would basically destroy the outer layer of skin with heating the cells and making them burst. The water would boil. Literally, on a cellular level, that's what happens. It makes the skin the little individual cells pop and die, as opposed to the chemical or acid that makes them die from the acid treatment.
In principle, the same thing happens. The outer layer of skin is deliberately destroyed to a certain thickness forcing nature to send up brand new smooth tight fresh pink skin. Great.
The problems came with the laser when we realized that it took a very long time for doctors to master it. And that led to some people being disappointed because of under treatment and some people having complications because of over treatment, because it was a very powerful tool and the mastery took a little bit longer, and there were too many difficulties in getting it just even, not too superficial, not too deep. And so, it kind of fell out of favor. There's some other, less strong, you know, lower powered lasers, that again, are less prone to complications and problems. On the other hand, don't quite deliver the exotic results people want.
People do want to have after having a significant procedure with the time and money outlay, they would like to have quite a good result. The chemical delivers it. So personally, for me, it's been the gold standard, and I think other experienced practitioners feel the same way. Sometimes, there is one process that just beats the others, and I believe this is.
See how household products can help you get healthy, glowing skin.

backstage pass
The accutane drug is a high dose of a version of Vit A, so was the Vit A eye cream recommended? It would *seem* like that would be a lot for that area to take... I'm glad it's working for you though. Have you tried any other creams for that area?
-I always say on this thread "YMMV" or 'your mileage may vary'. Everyone is different and there is no "cookbook" of products that works on everyone every time. I was on the full-course of Accutane for 6mos. Twice. It was awesome while I was on it. Long-term though, the acne came back and I still have it. Some people go on it never to have acne again. ((Lucky b*tches ))

Kenysha75- thx for the product tip. wonder if we have it in the US.
And even though we may all respond differently, it's always good to hear of other "case studies". MaidQuiet - been there, done that. Full blown "nothing" didn't work for me-just made things worse but I do a "modified" version of what you're talking about- I no longer wear makeup (powder or liquid) and I use gentle cleansers, etc etc. For me it's more a matter of what doesn't make things WORSE. [Nothing ever makes things BETTER.] I'm stuck between a little bad and a lot bad. When I have to wear makeup, I still with safe mineral versions and I cleanse with DHC oil cleanser (believe it or not) which works better for me than the Shu E. or Dermalogica brands. If I can go w/o full blown face, I use Dermalogica's spot concealer with the sulfur to hide/tint and treat.

My acne is not severe, but it's bad enough to make me feel horrible and look horrible. I have been taking oxytetracycline tablets- twice a day- and they have really helped. Nowadays I just take my Oxytetracycline and I treat my "bacne" (horrible) with Differin Gel in the evenings, after taking a shower, before going to bed. I still get the occassional spot but I just dab some tea tree oil on it or some TCP (stinks and stings but it does the job if there's nothing else available to use at the time) before it worsens and, generally speaking, it'll settle down.

Almost everybody in Hollywood wants in on the highly-anticipated film adaptation to E.L. James' best-selling erotica novel, "Fifty Shades of Grey." Avid readers and obsessed fans are also making their potential lists of actors set to play the role of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele. One actor who is also dead set on wanting to star in the film is "Twilight's" hunk, Kellan Lutz.
It's a battle of the hottest guys in Hollywood when it comes to lead roles. When it comes to the role of Christian Grey, the actor set to play him just has to be perfect given the whole world, specifically women, are watching his every move on screen. A lot of big names in the business have already been mentioned in a few fan polls namely Ryan Gosling of "Drive", Ian Somerhalder of "Vampire Diaries" and Alexander Skarsgard of "True Blood."
"Twilight" stars, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart have also been sighted as potential Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele respectively. One of their co-stars, Kellan Lutz, who plays the brother to Edward Cullen on film, has also been sighted as a potential actor for Christian Grey. However, according to Kellan, Christian Grey really isn't his character. Instead, Lutz has his eyes set on a different role in the film "Fifty Shades of Grey." Who would it be?
"I haven't read the books: I need to though," admitted Lutz in an interview with Parade, adding "The fans saw similarities between Emmett (from Twilight) and Elliot. I don't know much about either."
For those living under a rock, Elliot Grey is the brother to 27-year old entrepreneur Christian Grey. Elliot as described in the book is the complete opposite of Christian when it comes to the way he deals with people. So why would Lutz want to play the role of the brother and not the lead?
"I know Christian is the lead but that's why I didn't want to play Edward Cullen. He wasn't really like me. I'll trust the fans," explained Lutz.
For now, all fans can do is hope and pray hard that their protégés for the roles of Christian Grey and Anastasia Steele do manage to make it into the actual film. As of late, Ian Somerhalder has been winning a few online polls for the role of Christian Grey while the role of Anastasia Steele has been won on online polls by Alexandra Daddario.

October 19, 2012 Opening to Goodness Sagittarius Daily Horoscope
You may feel cautious and skeptical today, with an unwillingness to accept situations at face value. This prudent focus could leave you with a disbelieving and mistrusting attitude. While a cautious outlook isn't necessarily a bad thing, it could cause you to push away situations that would benefit your life in some way. To avoid this possibility, you may want to focus on being open to goodness in all forms today. Simply imagine attracting positive people and experiences into your life, and allow yourself to enjoy them when they arrive. If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by doubts or mistrust again, you can expand your awareness and explore the feelings more deeply so you can determine if they are valid or not.

Eight hundred forty-two of the most beautiful acres in Susquehanna County make up Salt Springs Park. Just under half of this land is a state park the Friends of Salt Springs manage for the Commonwealth, and the rest is our own land we encourage the public to enjoy.
Salt Springs offers the peace and beauty of streams and woodlands combined with nearly 15 miles of trails, historic farm buildings, cottages, camping, picnic grounds, and a variety of programs and events.
Salt Springs is open to the public year-round, without charge, from sunrise to sunset. The park is 6 miles north of Montrose, the county seat of Susquehanna County, and is within easy driving distance of Scranton, PA, and Binghamton, NY.
We are a nonprofit organization, Friends of Salt Springs Park. We manage 842 acres of Pennsylvania paradise. Learn more about us and the park.
We offer public programs year-round. Here's a full list.
We have 8 rustic tent sites and 3 rustic cottages. The tent sites are walk-in. The cabins have electricity but no heat or water. A composting facility is nearby. Details are here, and more pictures are here.
Nearly 15 miles of trails will lead you through meadows and marshes, in and out of a gorge, into an old-growth hemlock forest, to a frog pond, and up and down the hills. Check out the trail map and trail descriptions.
We have two pavilions. The Barn Pavilion (pictured) is an 1820s threshing barn, and the Williams Pavilion is a new building, slightly larger than the other. Both are perfect for weddings, receptions, family reunions, class reunions, graduation parties . . . celebrations of all kinds. Read more here.
We are dedicated to sharing the rich environmental and historical resources of Salt Springs. We teach an environmental ed program to local 4th graders. We research park and local history and share our findings in displays and on the history page.
Take a virtual hike through Salt Springs Park in the Photo Album. Enjoy the scenery, the flora and fauna, and highlights from past programs and events.
On this second day of park cleaning in April, we tackle everything else! We'll finish up with the firewood; clear the trails, lawns, and flowerbeds; clean the buildings; attack invasive species, and more. Free food, drinks, and T-shirts are provided to all volunteers.
Celebrate spring's new life with a hike to collect amphibian eggs and a demo to set up an egg-hatching system. We'll cover 2.5 miles with moderate hiking. Bring drinks, snacks, and an empty container. $5/person; members, free.
Register now for our Field, Forest and Falls trail race on September 5. Details and registration form and a route map are now available.
The April 2015 issue of Penn Lines, Claverack Rural Electric Cooperative's monthly publication, includes an article about Salt Springs Park and the Friends. Written by Jeff Fetzer, it encapsulates the history of this place from the late 1700s to the present. Enjoy this short narrative about Salt Springs Park.
In 1994, Salt Springs became the first PA state park to be funded and operated by a nonprofit volunteer organization - the Friends. This heavily illustrated book details the first 20 years of our adventure. Read more.
It's much easier to show you than tell you about all the work and play that get crammed into one year at Salt Springs. The newest pages in our Photo Album, 2014 Highlights, are a good place to start. Enjoy!

Salt Springs Park—Checklist of Birds
Crows are generally considered to be a nuisance. They damage crops and offend one's sense of peace with their raucous nattering. They take things that don't belong to them, they leave behind things we wish they wouldn't, and throughout history they've been associated with impending bad luck and even death.
However, crows deserve, and are gaining, a lot of respect, especially from scientists around the world. Why? Because they're astonishingly . . .
