Late last year, shortly before he died, the president's special representative to Pakistan and Afghanistan told me to expect a "tremendous debate" in 2011 between those in the administration who wanted a "steep and deep" troop withdrawal and those who wanted any draw-down in Afghanistan to be "small and shallow."
Gen. David Petraeus, whom Holbrooke credited with great ability to "spin" his vision of events, would be wanting any troop reduction to be just as small and shallow as can be, while the president, and his national security staff, would prefer steep and deep.
That battle has now been joined.
"Steeper Pullout Raised as Option for Afghanistan," headlined the New York Times, delineating the White House battle lines. "Military Seeks to Make Case Against Too-Hasty Reduction of Troops in Afghanistan," came the rejoinder the next day. The ever battle–ready John McCain opined that we needed another season of fighting, and said he hoped troop reduction would not exceed 3,000.
An op-ed in the Wall Street Journal by Kimberly and Frederick Kagan was headlined: "We Have the Momentum in Afghanistan." The article said that "we need every soldier we have," but the Kagans would allow 5,000 troops to leave — 2,000 more than McCain. General Petraeus has not yet made his recommendation.
The military believes that if we just keep killing the Taliban, they will see it our way and throw in the towel. Alas, wars against the Pashtuns by the Russians for nine years and by the British for more than 100, suggest that Pashtuns cannot easily be beaten into submission.
Ambassador designate Ryan Crocker, at his confirmation hearing, quoted Jesus Christ in saying that we weren't trying to build "a shining city on a hill," just "Afghanistan good enough." Good enough seems to mean we want to leave behind a structure that can stand up without American troops.
The military's thinking reminds me of Gen, William Westmoreland's belief that he could defeat the North Vietnamese in a war of attrition. But in the end the attrition worked against the United States, not the Vietnamese.
Support for the Afghan war is falling away in the United States. Late last month, an amendment to accelerate troop withdrawals in Afghanistan garnered 26 House Republicans who defied the GOP leadership. Our European allies are already heading out the door.
In a sense the death of Osama bin Laden hurt the military's case because it allowed critics of the war to say, well, we went into Afghanistan to get bin Laden. Now that he's gotten, can't we start packing it in?
The death of bin Laden did not, and could not, end al Qaeda's ambitions, and there will be others to take his place. But it does throw into focus that the war, which was indeed to get Al Qaeda, long ago morphed into a war against the Taliban, and is coming close to becoming a war against the Pashtuns. Of course not all Pashtuns support the Taliban, just as not all Vietnamese supported Ho Chi Minh, but enough of them do to make it easy for the Taliban to say they are the true Afghans, fighting foreign rule just the way Pashtuns have always done.
The U.S. military hopes that the Afghan army can be brought up to speed to replace foreign forces by 2014. Progress has been made, just the way there has been progress fighting the Taliban. But the question should not be: Are we making progress? The question is: How long and how much will it take before the Afghan National Army can stand up to the Taliban on its own? And for many, 2014 is a hopelessly optimistic date.
President Obama's security team is about to change. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates will be gone by month's end. Leon Penetta, who is scheduled to replace him, will relinquish the C.I.A. to Petreaus. The new national security advisor, Thomas Donilon, is on the side of steep and deep. It might be said of the new team that steep and deep is gaining on shallow and slow, although Petreaus can be counted upon to hold to his line at C.I.A.
I met Gen, John Dempsey — who has just been made head of the joint chiefs of staff — in Baghdad some years ago. He was then in charge of training the Iraqi Army. He was interested in talking about Vietnam when our formal interview was finished. It came as a bit of a shock to me to realize that none of our generals was old enough to have served in Vietnam. To them it was history, and they were interested in the way they might be interested in General Grant's campaign on the Mississippi.
Of Obama's team only Holbrooke had had any kind of real responsibility during the Vietnam years, and it haunted him. He told me that he could see us making so many of the same mistakes as we had in South East Asia. He talked about Vietnam every chance he got, which turned off many in the Obama White House, including Obama. By the time Holbrooke died, although he was lionized in death, he had been completely marginalized. General Petraeus referred to Holbrooke as his "wing man," which was no doubt meant as a compliment, but suggested an inferior position.
Steep and deep versus shallow and slow will continue to wrangle the administration in the coming weeks. You can count on one thing, however. President Obama will steer a middle course, giving neither side what it wants. Like other presidents, namely John Kennedy over Vietnam, Obama will put off any real decisions about Afghanistan for another day after the next general election.

The price of Bitcoin went below the $4,000 line yesterday, quickly crashing and reaching a 12-day low of $3660 at around 5:00 AM UTC. While it is unclear what caused the dip, it may be related to the upcoming SegWit activation. The nature of the update may make some investors wary, prompting them to "wait out" the update and return once technical stability is ensured.
Whatever caused it, the crash didn't last long, as Bitcoin started to recover immediately after reaching its 12-day low and is now sitting at $4110. Having risen 12.50% today, Bitcoin's trading volume is also higher than usual with $555.19 M exchanged in the USD/BTC markets in the last 24h. As usual, Japan is leading the markets in trading volume with a 45% market share.
Despite its rising hash rate, BitcoinCash did not accompany Bitcoin on its way up, remaining fairly stable following its latest descent from the weekend all-time high.
SegWit coming soon
While it is still unclear if the upcoming soft fork caused the BTC flash crash, the quick recovery may also have something to do with the long-awaited SegWit activation which is scheduled to take place one day from now. The SegWit update will allow the Bitcoin network to handle more transactions, a prospect that can restore Bitcoin's characteristics as a quick and cheap payment method. In theory, SegWit can double Bitcoin's transaction throughput.
The activation of SegWit was an uphill battle. However, the SegWit2X agreement managed to bring industry leaders together, winning over more than 80% of the network hash rate. Although the Segregated Witness (SegWit) update will be activated tomorrow, the SegWit2X agreement also aims to increase the transaction capacity by means of a hard fork in November, increasing the 1mb block size limit to a 2mb one.
Some members of the developer community have voiced their concerns and complaints regarding the technical dangers and lack of planning that has been put into the SegWit2X agreement, claiming that it's a rushed upgrade and that an hard fork should be better planned.
Future looks bright for Bitcoin
The price of Bitcoin has grown 250% in the last 6 months, breaking previous all-time highs and gaining popularity all over the world. The future looks bright for Bitcoin, as even well-known skeptics like Mark Cuban are beginning to invest in the space.

Composers are invited to submit a new unaccompanied choral motet for Westminster Cathedral's inaugural Composition Competition. A prize of £750 will be awarded to the winner, and the winning motet will be premiered at the 10am Solemn Mass at Westminster Cathedral on Palm Sunday, 14 April 2019 by Westminster Cathedral Choir.
The competition is open to all composers aged 35 and under, and the deadline for entries is 6pm on Friday 15 February 2019. There is an entry fee of £10.
2019 marks the sixtieth anniversary of George Malcolm's legendary 1959 recording of Victoria's Tenebræ Responsories with Westminster Cathedral Choir; it was one of the first recordings of Renaissance music committed to LP, and is still today a benchmark recording of these dramatic works, music that Westminster Cathedral Choir sings every Holy Week.
As well as the Cathedral's Master of Music and Assistant Master of Music, the adjudication panel will include the renowned composer and conductor Sir James MacMillan, who has had a long relationship with Westminster Cathedral Choir, resulting in many commissions and premieres, including a setting of 'Tu es Petrus' for the visit of Pope Benedict XVI in 2010.
For full details and how to apply, please download the Information and Application Form. For composers from outside the UK, you can use PayPal to pay the entry fee.

LED clock with DCF77 time sync
This is what I call a project! No, it is not yet another POV LED clock, this one is quite simple. Well, not simple "simple" really, it actually syncronises itself with atomic clock located in Germany over long waves on 77.5 kHz by using DCF77 receiver.
Another very important thing about this project is using ISA NE2000 network adapter card with target microcontroller ATMEGA8515. With network support this device dan be used as NTP server. Now that is something! Source-code is available for download on author's webpage.

It is a municipality of El Baix Penedès, which had been linked to the Tarragonès County for many years until recently. As its character and characteristics were similar to the characteristics of other villages of the Penedès, it was decided to include it in this county.
The municipality is situated in a small valley which is closed by the buttresses of the Quadrell Mountain Range. The township has an area of 24.86 Km². It is drained by the gullies of Hortal, Quitèria and Marcadé, from which they collect the rain water that descends from the nearest mountains. They also receive some water from the fountains that are under their way, and the natural fountains that are spread around the entire township.
The agriculture is the most important activity of the population. Half of the lands are not productive and are occupied by some thickets, and small sets of white pines. The cultivated lands and all unirrigated. The most important crop is the vineyard, specially in the varieties of "macabeo" and "parellada". Less important are the almond, olive, hazel, carob and fruit trees. One of the most abundant fruit trees is the peach tree. As a complement for the agriculture, there are a couple of herds of goats and some poultry farms and pigs.
The mines of iron, lead and the limestone and gypsum quarries were exploited until they started to be not profitable when the new technologies started to be applied.
The migration has been present since the beginning of this century. Nowadays, the arrival of some families from Barcelona during the weekends and holidays has stimulated the life and development of the village.

WATCH: Our Canaries correspondents analyse Norwich City's 2017 financial results
PUBLISHED: 13:53 01 November 2017 | UPDATED: 13:53 01 November 2017
The release of Norwich City's annual accounts hasn't made for the brightest of morning for Canaries fans.
Following on from a sixth Carrow Road match without a win, losing 2-0 to an impressive Wolves side, news that the club have moved from a £9.4million profit in the last accounts to a £2.7m loss after tax.
Given that the Canaries had missed out on promotion back to the Premier League last season, the drastic drop in income – down £25m to £75.9m – was hardly surprising.

The club's hierarchy have openly admitted that the wage bill needed cutting and player sales were essential to balancing the books, as managing director Steve Stone and his staff brace for the end of Premier League parachute payments.
Despite the expected gloomy details, news that external debt was still extremely low and is intended to remain so was at least a welcome upshot among the complex financial details.
Our Canaries correspondents Mark Armstrong and David Freezer have been analysing the results and discussed the key points to help fans digest the accounts, press play above to hear their thoughts.

New Delhi: On demonetisation anniversary, Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighting the benefits of the same shared a video from his twitter handle. The seven minutes long video underlines the need and importance of ban of high value currency.
The video depicts demonetisation as one of the bravest steps taken by Prime Minister Modi after coming to power in 2014. The video says that the country was suffering from the menace of corruption and black money before 2014 and the decision of demonetisation was a step to 'clean the Indian economy.
The video claims the poor and the commoner was not troubled with the decision as they always had faith that an 'honest government' is fighting for them. The video further claims, that the decision broke the backbone of terrorism and naxalism in the country and reduced stone pelting activity in the Kashmir Valley.
On this day last year the old Rs 1,000 and Rs 500 notes – 86 percent of currency in circulation – were scrapped after Prime Minister Modi made an unexpected announcement during a surprise television address. He also gave the nation's 1.3 billion people a 50-day window to either deposit them into bank accounts or exchange them for minted notes.

All day today I was joking that I threw myself in front of a bus this morning. I made comments like, "I threw myself in front of a bus this morning but I'm having a great day now" or "Considering I started the day by throwing myself in front of a bus, it's going really good now".
Of course, I was mostly trying to laugh it off and convince myself the pain wasn't so bad. I mean, it really could have been a lot worse than it was. I was able to go back in the house, clean myself up and get out the door and go to work. So, you may be asking yourself, "Why in the world did she throw herself in front of a bus?"
Here's what really happened – someone was coming by my house this morning to pick up some merchandise she had ordered from me. When she arrived, she just pulled over on the opposite side of the road from where I was. I looked to see if I could cross the road and I saw a school bus coming but it was far enough away that I knew I had plenty of time to cross the street and give the lady her merchandise. I stepped out with my right foot (most likely a little 'quicker' than I would have if nothing had been coming) but, when I moved my left foot, it hit a hole instead of solid ground. The next thing I knew I was falling and the only thought in my head while I was falling was "Oh no! The bus is coming! I have to get up!" I truly wish I could see it on video because, in my mind, it had to be the funniest sight ever! All I can imagine is that, anyone who saw it, saw me hit the pavement and jump right back up as if I'd hit a trampoline!
I gave the lady her merchandise, assuring her I was fine and that I only had scraped knees and jammed fingers. I was trying to hurry up and get done and get back across the street (without falling this time) and get in my car so I could leave for work. Once inside my car, I made sure she had gone on and made sure the bus – anyone that had witnessed "the spectacle" was gone – and I pulled my pants legs up to reveal two scraped, bloody knees. I knew I needed to go back inside and clean them up before I left for work, so I did. Right before leaving the house, I managed to post this on Facebook (still trying to see the 'humor' in the situation instead of my embarrassment): Tupid hole! On the bright side, I'm sure I gave all the kids on that school bus a huge laugh for the day. OUCH! My fingers and knees hurt! Bring on the ibuprofen and let's try this leaving for work thing one more time!
And so it went with me all day UNTIL I was taking my shower tonight. I was remembering the accident that happened yesterday right in the church driveway after church and how that lady had to be taken by ambulance to the hospital. {She wound up being okay, though, and walked out of the hospital on her own to go home. 🙂 } Then something a friend posted on Facebook earlier today came to my mind – this was her post:
Did you hear Moses (Pastor Glenn Weber) talk yesterday at Grace Fellowship? He said, in 6 weeks ONLY, the people who loved and trusted God turned away! He told us to "stay on the road", "dig into your Bible" and "seek God". 6 weeks ????? I want to share what happened to me this morning. I went to get some eggs from dollar general. I was praising and thanking God for giving me courage yesterday and jamming to 88.5! On the road, by myself. As I made the turn with the yield sign ahead to the right, I made sure there was no traffic coming in the turn lane (on the highway). Still thanking the Lord, I looked up at the beautiful blue sky. Tickled like a kid, I delayed in looking….right in front of me was a 18 wheeler! I crossed the line, he blew the horn, my heart started racing and my thankful excitement changed into thankful to be alive. I swerved to the far right and noticed the long stretch of road ahead of me. The 6 week example of how easy God's people forgot about His laws turned into a reality of a split second….how easily we can be gone. Hummm 6 weeks to 1 second…the reality of we don't know what the future holds. But, God does. I'm so blessed to be alive, to cook breakfast, and pick my son up from school. Just thought I would share a little bit of my reality this morning. Have a good day everyone!
No, I did not remember her entire post. What came to my mind was how she mentioned our service yesterday and how, in an instant, her life could have been over today. I remembered how nervous she was yesterday morning about sharing part of 'her story' during the service and how God was able to get glory because she overcame her fear of speaking in front of people and shared. I thought, "Yeah, she made the enemy mad and he tried to take her out today." THAT is when it clicked in my mind! Of course I had not "thrown myself in front of a bus" – I was THROWN in front of that bus! Instead of joking about it all day, like I had done, I should have been giving God the praise for having His angels there to jerk me right back up as quickly as they did. It made me start to wonder how many times I have "missed" giving Him glory because of my own embarassment in a situation. In fact, it made me realize that I had no reason to be embarrassed. Why should I be embarrassed because somebody pushed me onto the street? How many times has God rescued me from something and I've never taken the time to realize it was HIM that rescued me and never even bothered to thank Him for saving me?
I remember as I was back in the car this morning, getting ready to pull out and head to work – still crying like a baby – the thought went through my head, "Thank You, Father, for always being there for me. I don't do half what I should for You and yet You are always right there when I need You, ever so faithful. Please forgive me." Guess I should have thought on that some more and maybe it wouldn't have taken me all day to realize what had happened this morning; but, I am thankful that He got through to me tonight and I am thankful that I have a way (this blog, Facebook and Twitter) to SHOUT to the world of how THE ENEMY TRIED TO DESTROY ME TODAY BUT GOD HAD A DIFFERENT PLAN! Do you remember me saying at the beginning that it must have looked like I jumped right back up "as if I'd hit a tramploline"? Maybe so, but I now KNOW how I got back up so quickly – I KNOW it was His angels that jerked me right back up and from this day forward I will give HIM all the praise, honor and glory for it!
Posted January 16, 2011on:
I signed up for a Twitter account on Dec. 29, 2008. I was invited to it by a former pastor. I was thinking, "What is Twitter?" but I signed up and hardly ever 'tweeted for a while. Then more friends began getting on Twitter and I began using it more.
I'm not sure exactly when it started really 'taking off' but all of a sudden, it seemed like EVERYONE was 'tweeting'. Then 'famous' people started tweeting. At first I didn't 'follow' them but started finding some that I thought might be interesting to follow so I did. That has turned out to be one of the best decisions I've ever made.
By following 'famous' people, I feel that God has taught me several things. First and foremost is that they are just 'regular' people, like me. Where once I tended to think of them as people that 'have it all together', it is much easier to realize that they go through struggles and hard times just as I do.
Another reason I decided to follow some of them is that they encourage me in my walk with the Lord. Yes, most of the ones I follow are Christians and I can't tell you how many times they have posted a scripture or a quote or even shared a struggle they're dealing with that has helped me just when I needed it. I have even met a wonderful friend by following Candace Cameron Bure (@candacecbure). In one of her tweets, she was speaking to someone she knows and what she said really touched me. I decided to check out the person she was talking to and am I ever glad I did. Because of that, I came to know a beautiful, delightful, young Christian lady, Mandy Young (@Mandy_Young). I went to her website, www.mandyyoung.com, and read her story and laughed and cried and knew this was someone I wanted to get to know, if possible. So, I followed her on Twitter and then added her as a friend on Facebook. I was so glad that I got to meet her at the EWomen Conference in Birmingham last year – she was a fellow volunteer. Her smile is so full of Jesus – I'm telling ya, He just oozes out of her and she doesn't even have to say a word! If you've never heard of her, I strongly suggest that you check out her website and read her story. You WILL be inspired and touched, I guarantee it. If you're not, you might want to check your pulse and be sure you're still alive. LOL
Tammy Trent (@tammytrent) is another one that encourages me. She and her best friend/ministry coordinator, Anita Rundell (@anitarundell) make me laugh a LOT but they also seem to post scriptures or insights just when I need that, too.
I can't even begin to tell you how much Mandisa (@mandisaofficial) inspires me. Talk about someone that is genuine, honest and REAL – she is that and more! As most of you probably know, she struggles with her weight just like a lot of us do. But she not only shares her 'good' days, she shares her 'not-so-good' days as well. Just today, in fact, she told us how instead of getting her exercise in, she was "veggin all day" – just keepin' it real with us, she said. It is so wonderful to see someone in her position being so open and honest. She is going to be one of Lysa TerKeurst's guests on the Made to Crave live webcasts and I am so looking forward to that one!
By following Beth Moore (@BethMooreLPM), I learned about the SSMT. What is SSMT, you ask. I'd be glad and honored to tell you – Siesta Scripture Memory Team. This is a group – a HUGE group – of ladies that have committed to memorizing two scriptures per month. You can go to Beth's blog at http://blog.lproof.org/ and get all the information about it. Maybe you will even decide to join us. This is my first time to ever attempt to memorize scripture and I am excited about it.
There are many others that touch my heart, too, but I will give you a list (along with their Twitter profile names) at the end of the blog (or see if there is a way that I can attach a list). That way, if you have a Twitter account and you don't already follow them, you can find and follow them soon.
Some that I follow, I met because of volunteering at the EWomen Conferences. One very special lady, Beth Cleveland (@bethclev) is actually no longer with EWomen because God has moved her on to another chapter in her life. But I count it a huge privilege that He introduced her to me before moving her on. She loves the Lord with all her heart and you can tell it when you're around her. Thanks to the EWomen Conferences, I have also been honored to meet Lindsay Fitz (@lindsaymfitz) and Mary Snyder (@MaryRSnyder). (More about Mary later)
Something that has me rather baffled, though, is some of the people who have 'followed' me. First of all, I wonder, "I don't know this person. Why in the world would they be interested in following me?" Then I go check them out and find that they are a Sister in Christ and follow some of the people I do, so I figure that's why they started following me. The thing that puzzles me about some of them is that, as I begin reading their tweets, I find that several of them have their own websites and are what I consider to be 'true' bloggers and, in some cases, even more. Leading me to ponder why God is putting me in touch with so many different women in that area. Mary Snyder (mentioned earlier) is just one such lady that I speak of. When I first came to know about Mary, I thought she simply did the blog for the EWomen Conferences. I could not have been more wrong! Through being her friend on facebook and following her on Twitter, I have learned that she seems to wear many hats and writes several different blogs. (Side note – she is also about to start writing a book!) When I think of all that she does it makes me wonder why I can't even seem to write a simple little blog once a month or so. Oh and Mary is also going to be one of Lysa's guests on her live webcast, on the January 31 episode – or should I say 'webisode'? I'm looking forward to that one, also.
As I said, I don't know why God has put so many of these women in my path but I'm sure He will reveal the reason in His time, if I am to know. Maybe it's just simply to pray for others. There are a lot of prayer requests that get posted and the most recent that comes to mind is for Joanne Heim. A lady I'd never heard of until I started seeing several posts requesting prayer for her. She had a stroke on her treadmill (if I'm remembering correctly on Jan. 11). I posted a prayer for her and through that I received yet another follower. Yes, another lady, Michelle Bentham (@michellebentham), that has her own website. And, in fact, just two hours ago (8:20 p.m. CST on Sunday, 01-16-11) posted on Twitter that, due to all the prayer that's been tweeted this week, she has created another website devoted to scripture and prayer, www.scriptureandprayer.com. WOW! It just blows me away to think of all the women that God is putting me in contact with.
So, there you have it – just a small number of reasons on why I follow the 'famous' people – I don't even really think of them as famous. Would I like to meet them all in person one day? (The ones I haven't already met) Sure, but not for the reasons that many of you may think. I would love to be able to meet them and talk about what the Lord has done in their life and my life and find out that we actually have a lot in common – HIS BLESSINGS! You see, we are all on the same 'playing field' in His eyes. There is not one that is more important than another. We just all have different things that He wants to accomplish through each of us and He has us exactly where we need to be in order to get His work done.
It thrills and amazes me to see some of the work He is doing through those that most of us think of as 'unapproachable'. As I said at the beginning, we are all just people and I love that His true followers recognize that.
I know this was a long one so, if you hung in there and read it all, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I had a lot more I wanted to share because so many have touched my life with the words they have spoken (or tweeted, I guess I should say) but it would probably fill a book! And since I'm definitely NOT a writer, I just don't even need to go there – LOL
I pray you enjoyed it and even that it touched YOUR heart in some way. May He bring you a blessing from it – even if that blessing is just that you will go learn about some of the people I mentioned. They will truly make an impact in your life and your thinking, in a positive way.
Please leave a comment here and let me know you visited – I'd love to see if anyone actually read it or not 🙂 Attached below is a list of some of the people you may want to look up on Twitter.

Happy Wednesday, everyone! I know I'm late, but I'm HERE, and that's what matters. My schedule fell on its head today. haha! But still managing to make time to get in here and blog. Today, I'm going to talk about something that happened to a friend of mine. We can all learn from it, so get your coffee and let's get going!
So, for a long while, my friend had her books wide (being distributed to all vendors everywhere). She decided to pull her books from wide and go all in with Amazon KDP Select. This enrolled her stories in Kindle Unlimited automatically, and she started getting paid by the Global Fund pot for pages read.
Everything was going fine for a good, long time, until one day, she discovered her titles had been pulled from Select. There was no email telling her why. Nothing.
She freaked out (wouldn't you?).
You see, this friend of mine is always on the up and up. She's done everything by the book and to the letter of the rules. So, when this happened, she was completely taken aback.
After a LOT of digging around, she discovered those titles that had been pulled to go into Select were available via one of the distribution arms of a popular distributor.
No, I'm not going to say which one. That's not what this post is about. I'm just issuing a warning here and showing you how you might want to delve more deeply if you're pulling from wide distro to go into Select.
Let's move on.
These books weren't pirated. Amazon doesn't yank your books for that. They were legitimate arms of distributors that simply neglected to remove a title that was no longer available.
Needless to say, she's still fighting it. No one at Amazon will get back in touch with her, and last I heard, she was planning to reach out to the distributor to see if they could help.
But the damage is, sadly, done. Her royalties for pages read have come to a screeching halt, and she doesn't know when or if she'll be able to get back into Select. When Amazon bans you, it's usually for at least a year.
So, there's one situation to be hyper aware of. If you pull your books from wide, be sure you check everywhere before clicking the "Enroll this book in KDP Select" button. She thought she did, and it's really messing up her money right now.
Have you heard of something like this? Anything strange happen to you?
Well, that's all for today, folks! Until next time, WRITE ON!

Oct 5, 2010 16:21:57 GMT -5 Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostMemberGive GiftBack to Top Post by CharleyNovember on Oct 5, 2010 16:21:57 GMT -5 My scenarios are points based. For an example you have one big objective that is worth 50 points and two smaller ones worth 25pnts. Decisions decisions....Do you take the big objective? Do you have the man power? Perhaps you are better suited tactically to go after one or both small objectives first. The decision lies with the commander. Along with this you add in standing orders of specific tasks to be completed anytime during the day like specific intel off a certain player or NPC that gains you extra points. Suddenly it makes sense for you to start stopping and searching combatants instead of just BB festing away. Perhaps you need to capture an officer or scientest and get him out of the AO..Wow maybe that medic and medic system IS important in this mission. So forth and so on. Honestly some players just show up to shoot but most historical airsofters like to think a little and pull a trigger a little ...and talk about thier uniforms and gear a whole hell of a lot. It's just a better crowd to deal with and one that usually does and should expect a little more thought into the missions and overall scenario.

The Desert Mothers were female Christian ascetics living in the desert of Egypt, Israel, and Syria in the 4th and 5th centuries AD. They typically lived in the monastic communities that began forming during that time, though sometimes they lived as hermits. Other women from that era who influenced the early ascetic or monastic tradition while living outside the desert are also described as Desert Mothers. [1]
The Desert Fathers are much more well known because most of the early lives of the saints "were written by men for a male monastic audience" [2] —the occasional stories about the Desert Mothers come from the early Desert Fathers and their biographers. Many desert women had leadership roles within the Christian community. The Apophthegmata Patrum , or Sayings of the Desert Fathers, includes forty-seven sayings that are actually attributed to the Desert Mothers. There are several chapters dedicated to the Desert Mothers in the Lausiac History by Palladius, who mentions 2,975 women living in the desert. [2] Other sources include the various stories told over the years about the lives of saints of that era, traditionally called vitae ("life"). [3] The lives of twelve female desert saints are described in Book I of Vitae Patrum (Lives of the Fathers). [4]
The Desert Mothers were known as ammas ("spiritual mothers"), comparable to the Desert Fathers (abbas), due to the respect they earned as spiritual teachers and directors. [5] One of the most well known Desert Mothers was Amma Syncletica of Alexandria, who had twenty-seven sayings attributed to her in the Sayings of the Desert Fathers. Two other ammas, Theodora of Alexandria and Amma Sarah of the Desert, also had sayings in that book. Desert Mothers described in the Lausiac History include Melania the Elder, Melania the Younger, Olympias, Saint Paula and her daughter Eustochium, and several women whom the author does not name. [6]
According to written accounts, Amma Syncletica might have been born around AD 270, since she is said to have lived to her eighties in about AD 350, to wealthy parents in Alexandria and was well educated, including an early study of the writings of Desert Father Evagrius Ponticus. After the death of her parents, she sold everything she had and gave the money to the poor. Moving outside the city with her blind sister, she lived as a hermit among the tombs outside of Alexandria. Gradually a community of women ascetics grew up around her, who she served as their spiritual mother. Even though she was an ascetic and hermit, Syncletica taught moderation, and that asceticism was not an end in itself. [7]
Theodora of Alexandria was the amma of a monastic community of women near Alexandria. Prior to that, she had fled to the desert disguised as a man and joined a community of monks. She was sought out by many of the Desert Fathers for advice—reportedly Bishop Theophilus of Alexandria came to her for counsel. [8]
Sarah of the Desert's sayings indicate that she was a hermit living by a river for sixty years. Her sharp replies to some of the old men who challenged her show a distinctly strong personality. [6] According to one story, two male anchorites visited her in the desert and decided, "Let's humiliate this old woman." They said to her, "Be careful not to become conceited thinking to yourself: "Look how anchorites are coming to see me, a mere woman." She replied, "According to nature I am a woman, but not according to my thoughts." [9]
Melania the Elder, the daughter of a Roman official, became widowed at a young age and moved to Alexandria, and then to the Nitrian Desert. She met several of the Desert Fathers, following them in their travels and ministering to them using her own money. At one point she was thrown into prison for supporting them, after several of the Fathers had been banished by the officials in Palestine. She eventually founded a convent in Jerusalem which had about fifty nuns. [10] Her granddaughter, Melania the Younger, was married at the age of thirteen and had two sons, both of whom died at a young age. When she was twenty, she and her husband Pinianus renounced the world, both founding convents and monasteries. [10]
According to Averil Cameron, women were quite prominent in the desert tradition, even though early accounts often leave women nameless. In Cameron's opinion there is no distinction between the men's wise sayings and that of Amma Sarah and Amma Syncletia. One text refers to Theodora, who had monks listening to her counsel and asking questions. Some women converted their houses into religious establishments and there were gender-mixed social/religious groups. Women could not obtain ordination as a deacon or a priest. [11]
Anthony or Antony the Great, was a Christian monk from Egypt, revered since his death as a saint. He is distinguished from other saints named Anthony such as Anthony of Padua, by various epithets of his own: Saint Anthony, Anthony of Egypt, Antony the Abbot,Anthony of the Desert,Anthony the Anchorite, and Anthony of Thebes. For his importance among the Desert Fathers and to all later Christian monasticism, he is also known as the Father of All Monks. His feast day is celebrated on 17 January among the Orthodox and Catholic churches and on Tobi 22 in the Coptic calendar.
A hermit, or eremite, is a person who lives in seclusion from society, usually for religious reasons. Hermits are a part of several sections of Christianity, and the concept is found in other religions as well.
Moses the Black (330–405), also known as Abba Moses the Robber, and the Strong, was reportedly an ascetic monk and priest in Egypt in the fourth century AD, and a notable Desert Father. According to stories about him, he converted from a life of crime to one of asceticism. He is mentioned in Sozomen's Ecclesiastical History, written about 70 years after Moses's reported death.
Christian monasticism is the devotional practice of individuals who live ascetic and typically cloistered lives that are dedicated to Christian worship. It began to develop early in the history of the Christian Church, modeled upon scriptural examples and ideals, including those in the Old Testament, but not mandated as an institution in the scriptures. It has come to be regulated by religious rules and, in modern times, the Canon law of the respective Christian denominations that have forms of monastic living. Those living the monastic life are known by the generic terms monks (men) and nuns (women). The word monk originated from the Greek μοναχός, itself from μόνος meaning 'alone'.
Cenobiticmonasticism is a monastic tradition that stresses community life. Often in the West the community belongs to a religious order, and the life of the cenobitic monk is regulated by a religious rule, a collection of precepts. The older style of monasticism, to live as a hermit, is called eremitic. A third form of monasticism, found primarily in Eastern Christianity, is the skete.
The Desert Fathers were early Christian hermits, ascetics, and monks who lived mainly in the Scetes desert of Egypt beginning around the third century AD. The Apophthegmata Patrum is a collection of the wisdom of some of the early desert monks and nuns, in print as Sayings of the Desert Fathers. The most well known was Anthony the Great, who moved to the desert in AD 270–271 and became known as both the father and founder of desert monasticism. By the time Anthony died in AD 356, thousands of monks and nuns had been drawn to living in the desert following Anthony's example—his biographer, Athanasius of Alexandria, wrote that "the desert had become a city." The Desert Fathers had a major influence on the development of Christianity.
Saint Melania the Elder, Latin Sancta Melania Maior was a Desert Mother who was an influential figure in the Christian ascetic movement that sprang up in the generation after the Emperor Constantine made Christianity a legal religion of the Roman Empire. She was a contemporary of, and well known to, Abba Macarius and other Desert Fathers in Egypt, Saint Jerome, Saint Augustine of Hippo, Saint Paulinus of Nola, and Evagrius of Pontus, and she founded two religious communities on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem. She stands out for the convent she founded for herself and the monastery she established in honour of Rufinus of Aquileia, which belong to the earliest Christian communities, and because she promoted the asceticism which she, as a follower of Origen, considered indispensable for salvation.
Evagrius Ponticus, also called Evagrius the Solitary, was a Christian monk and ascetic. One of the most influential theologians in the late fourth-century church, he was well known as a thinker, polished speaker, and gifted writer. He left a promising ecclesiastical career in Constantinople and traveled to Jerusalem, where in 383 he became a monk at the monastery of Rufinus and Melania the Elder. He then went to Egypt and spent the remaining years of his life in Nitria and Kellia, marked by years of asceticism and writing. He was a disciple of several influential contemporary church leaders, including Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nazianzus, and Macarius of Egypt. He was a teacher of others, including John Cassian and Palladius.
Saint Melania the Younger is a Christian saint and Desert Mother who lived during the reign of Emperor Honorius, son of Theodosius I. She is the paternal granddaughter of Melania the Elder.
A skete is a monastic community in Eastern Christianity that allows relative isolation for monks, but also allows for communal services and the safety of shared resources and protection. It is one of four types of early monastic orders, along with the eremitic, lavritic and coenobitic, that became popular during the early formation of the Christian Church.
The Lausiac History is a seminal work archiving the Desert Fathers written in 419-420 by Palladius of Galatia, at the request of Lausus, chamberlain at the court of the Byzantine Emperor Theodosius II.
Saint Isidora or Isidore was a Christian nun and saint of the 4th century AD. She is considered among the earliest fools for Christ. While very little is known of Isidora's life, she is remembered for her exemplification of the writing of St. Paul that "Whosoever of you believes that he is wise by the measure of this world, may he become a fool, so as to become truly wise.". The story of Isidora effectively highlights the Christian ideal that recognition or glory from man is second to one's actions being seen by God, even if that means one's actions or even one's self remains unknown or misunderstood. This ideal was extremely important to the early Desert Fathers and Mothers who recorded Isidora's story.
The Apophthegmata Patrum is the name given to various collections popularly known as of Sayings of the Desert Fathers, consisting of stories and sayings attributed to the Desert Fathers and Desert Mothers from approximately the 5th century AD.
Eastern Christian monasticism developed for around a century and a half as a spontaneous religious movement, up to the time of the Council of Chalcedon, which took place in 451. At that Council, monasticism had become an acknowledged part of the life of the Christian Church, and it was specially legislated for.
Syncletica of Alexandria, a Christian saint and Desert Mother of the 4th century, was of a wealthy background and is reputed to have been very beautiful. From childhood, however, Syncletica was drawn to dedicate her life to God.
Amma (Mother) Sarah of the Desert was one of the early Desert Mothers who is known to us today solely through the collected Sayings of the Desert Fathers. She was a hermit and followed a life dedicated to strict asceticism for some sixty years.
The Vitae Patrum is an encyclopedia of hagiographical writings on the Desert Fathers and Desert Mothers of early Christianity. The bulk of the original texts date from the third and fourth centuries. The Lives that were originally written in Greek were translated into Latin between the fourth and the seventh century. An Italian vernacular translation was made by Dominican friar Domenico Cavalca from Pisa at the beginning of the fourteenth century.
Longinus was the hegumenos of the Enaton, a monastic community outside Alexandria in Roman Egypt. He is the subject of a Sahidic Coptic hagiography, the Life of Saints Longinus and Lucius the Ascetics, and a Sahidic homily, In Honour of Longinus, by Bishop Basil of Oxyrhynchus.
The Pempton was a complex of Christian monasteries in late Roman Egypt. It was named for the fifth milestone west of Alexandria along the coastal road between Lake Mareotis and the Mediterranean Sea, probably near present-day al-Maks. It is attested from the early fourth century until the beginning of the seventh. It was one of a series of monastic sites along the coast west of Alexandria, others being the ninth (Enaton), eighteenth (Oktokaidekaton) and twentieth (Eikoston).

Kicked Up Pasta With Four Cheeses
By á-174942
- 1 pound penne, ziti, or other tubular pasta
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 6 ounces pancetta diced
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/4 cups grated Grana Padana or Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 1 cup crumbled Dolce Gorgonzola, Gorgonzola, or other creamy, mild blue cheese
- 3/4 cup grated fontina
- 1/2 cup grated Pecorino Toscana, or Percorino Romano
- Salt to taste
- Freshly-ground black pepper to taste
- Minced parsley for garnish
Servings 6
Step 1
In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the pasta until al dente. Drain and return to the pot. Toss with the olive oil and stir to prevent from sticking.
Meanwhile, in a large saute pan, cook the pancetta until the fat is rendered and browned. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Melt the butter in the pan over medium heat. Add the garlic, and cook, stirring, until soft and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the wine, increase the heat, and stir to deglaze the pan. Cook until reduced to 1 tablespoon. Add the cream and cook until reduced slightly, about 2 minutes.
Lower the heat and add the cheeses 1 at a time, stirring after each addition. Cook, stirring, until melted and smooth. Adjust the seasoning, to taste, with salt and pepper. Add the pasta and toss to coat evenly. Stir in the pancetta.
Transfer to a hollowed cheese wheel or large serving bowl. Top with freshly ground black pepper and parsley. Serve immediately.
This recipe yields 6 servings.

What a simple and great idea. Like one commenter below mentioned, this would be great for a message or note pad as well. I think I may make myself one to use as a pad to keep track of stitches and jot notes when working on my crochet and knitting projects, and another with the calendar and a note section to have on the desk.
