CDS INSTRUMENT: 
  At 10:53 UT, CTM 31 = 25 violated YELLOW HIGH limits and returned to 
nominal at 11:00 UT.  This was due to the increased temperatures caused by 
our current solar conditions/postion.

CDS INSTRUMENT: 
  At 08:04 UT, CTM 31 = 25 violated YELLOW HIGH limits and returned to 
nominal (CTM 31 = 24) at 09:21 UT.
  At 08:57 UT, CTM 5 = 26 violated YELLOW HIGH limits for 2 minutes and
returned to nominal (CTM 5 = 25) at 08:59 UT.
  The above limits were likely caused by increased temperatures caused by 
our current solar conditions/position.  Currently under review.
  CDS Doors were closed at 21:10 UT for S/C Manuevers.
  ESR Flag was disabled for CDS at 21:25 UT.
