  We present SPEAR/FIMS far-ultraviolet observations near the North Ecliptic
Pole. This area, at b~30 degrees and with intermediate HI column, seems to be a
fairly typical line of sight that is representative of general processes in the
diffuse ISM. We detect a surprising number of emission lines of many elements
at various ionization states representing gas phases from the warm neutral
medium (WNM) to the hot ionized medium (HIM). We also detect fluorescence bands
of H2, which may be due to the ubiquitous diffuse H2 previously observed in
absorption.
