The Agricultural Research Service (ARS) was established on November 2, 1953, pursuant to authority vested in the Secretary of Agriculture by 5 U.S.C. 301 and Reorganization Plan No. 2 of 1953, and other authorities.
ARS is the principal in-house research agency of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Congress first authorized federally supported agricultural research in the Organic Act of 1862, which established what is now USDA. That statute directed the Commissioner of Agriculture "... To acquire and preserve in his Department all information he can obtain by means of books and correspondence, and by practical and scientific experiments..." The scope of USDA's agricultural research programs has been expanded and extended more than 60 times since the Department was created.
ARS research is authorized by the Department of Agriculture Organic Act of 1862 (7 U.S.C. 2201 note), Agricultural Research Act of 1935 (7 U.S.C. 427), Research and Marketing Act of 1946 (P.L. 79-733), as amended (7 U.S.C. 427, 1621 note), Food and Agriculture Act of 1977 (P.L. 95-113), as amended (7 U.S.C. 1281 note), Food Security Act of 1985 (P.L. 99-198) (7 U.S.C. 3101 note), Food, Agriculture, Conservation, and Trade Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-624) (7 U.S.C. 1421 note), Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-127), and Agricultural Research, Extension, and Education Reform Act of 1998 (P.L. 105-185). ARS derived most of its objectives from statutory language, specifically the "Purposes of Agricultural Research, Extension, and Education" set forth in Section 801 of FAIR.
The ARS mission is to conduct research to develop and transfer solutions to agricultural problems of high national priority and provide information access and dissemination to: ensure high-quality, safe food, and other agricultural products; assess the nutritional needs of Americans; sustain a competitive agricultural economy; enhance the natural resource base and the environment; and provide economic opportunities for rural citizens, communities, and society as a whole.
The Agency's research focuses on achieving the goals identified in the USDA and Research, Education, and Economics (REE) mission area Strategic Plans. The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) mandates each agency to establish general goals that will contribute to achieving beneficial societal outcomes that shape and drive the work of the Agency during the five years covered by the plan.
Verification, Validation and Program Evaluation: ARS conducts a series of review processes designed to ensure the relevance and quality of its research work and to maintain the highest possible standards for its scientists. This process involves customer input to help keep the research focused on the needs of the American food and agricultural system. Each of the approximately 1,000 research projects, which are organized into 22 National Programs, undergoes a thorough independent external prospective peer review conducted by the Office of Scientific Quality Review (OSQR). All ARS employees, including the scientific workforce, are subject to annual performance reviews. Senior scientists undergo a rigorous peer review (Research Position Evaluation System-RPES) on a 3- to 5-year cycle. These processes ensure the continuing high quality output of the ARS research addressing the needs of American agriculture.
ARS has also completed two program evaluations that are included in the President's Management Agenda (PMA). The PMA is designed to strengthen the management of Federal programs and increase program accountability. In the FY 2006 budget cycle, ARS conducted a Program Assessment Rating Tool (PART) analysis on all the research conducted under Strategic Plan Goal 1, Enhance Economic Opportunities for Agricultural Producers. This Goal includes research on new and improved high quality value added products and processes, livestock production, and crop production. In FY 2007 budget cycle, a PART analysis was conducted on Goal 3, Research on Protection and Safety of Agricultural Food Supply, covering research on Food Safety, Livestock Protection, and Crop Protection. The PART assessment seeks to measure four aspects of a program: program purpose and design, strategic planning, program management, and program results/accountability. The PART analysis for both Goals 1 and 3 received a "moderately effective" rating from OMB. ARS is conducting two additional PART analyses during the FY 2008 budget cycle covering Goal 4, Nutrition and Health, and Goal 5, Natural Resource Base and Environment.
Beginning in FY 2005, ARS' National Program Leaders (NPLs) and Area Directors reviewed more than 1,000 research projects by applying the Research and Development (R&D) Investment Criteria of relevancy, performance, and quality. The information gained from this review helped the Agency to identify low performing and/or low priority research. This information was used in shaping the FY 2007 budget; it will also be used to make future program management decisions. The R&D investment criteria were applied as follows:
For relevance, the NPLs assessed whether ARS' research is consistent with the Agency's mission and relevant to the needs of American agriculture, as identified by the Administration and ARS' customers and stakeholders.
For performance, the NPLs reviewed the annual project reports submitted by each research unit. Beginning with FY 2004, these reports provided information on how well each research project did in achieving the milestones in its Project Plan.
For quality, the Area Directors relied on data from the ARS OSQR reviews of each research project at the beginning of its 5-year program cycle. OSQR conducts rigorous reviews of ARS' research projects by independent external peer panels to ensure their quality. In addition, the Area Directors used information from the RPES reviews of individual scientists in making this assessment. RPES conducts rigorous peer reviews of ARS' scientists on a regular schedule (i.e., every three, four, or five years). The Area Directors also assessed the capacity (i.e., facilities, human and fiscal resources, equipment, etc.) of each project to meet its research objectives, an important consideration for intramural programs.
The National Programs focus the work of the Agency on achieving the goals defined in the ARS Strategic Plan 2003-2007. The research priorities for each National Program are established with extensive input from customers, stakeholders, and partners, which is received, in part, at a series of National Program Workshops. A detailed Action Plan developed for each National Program is available on the ARS home page, www.ars.usda.gov; open "Research" and select the National Program of interest. The GPRA Annual Performance Plans, the GPRA Annual Performance Reports, and the National Program Annual Reports which serve to keep the work of the Agency focused on achieving the goals established in the ARS Strategic Plan are also available on this website. The aggregate effect of these processes is a strengthened research program and an accountability system that measures more effectively the progress made towards achieving established goals and outcomes.
Key External Factors that Affect the Ability of ARS to Achieve its Goals and Objectives: The future of American agriculture depends on its ability to respond to critical external factors. Effective planning within ARS will take these factors into consideration when establishing and executing the Agency's research programs.
Globalization: The globalization of all aspects of the food and fiber system is having a major impact on American agriculture. Profound changes are seen worldwide from competitive markets around the world, from diseases not limited to national boundaries, to population growth and evolving diets. These changes have led to a dramatically new trade environment, threats of exotic diseases and pests to domestic production, and international controversies over the use of biotechnology. To remain competitive, the food and agriculture sector needs to respond to these developments.
Information Access and Communication: The explosion of information technology, the worldwide use of the Internet, and the major advancements of cyberspace communications are changing the way private industry, government, and individuals conduct daily business. Vast amounts of information are available in "real time," more people from around the world will be able to retrieve the information, and advanced computer software will make the information more useful and meaningful. Advancements in communication technology offer benefits and opportunities for everyone involved in the American food and agriculture sector.
Workforce: A very important employment issue is the need to recruit and retain a highly skilled and technically well trained Federal workforce. The relatively low U.S. unemployment rate makes recruitment highly competitive. This competitive environment is expected to require more employer emphasis on recruitment, retention, student employment, upward mobility, and training/retraining programs. The public sector will need to recruit a diversity of people and to maintain a highly qualified and technically competent workforce. Expanding job opportunities for women and minorities in science and engineering will help to tap the Nation's human potential.
Technology: Advances in technology--such as bioengineering, precision agriculture, remote sensing, and decision modeling--enable agricultural production to enhance nutrition, protect the environment, and continue to make the food supply safe. Biotechnology offers great promise for increasing production efficiency, improving food quality, and enhancing nutritional value. However, concerns about genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have had a marked impact on international exports of affected commodities, and prompted questions about the potential benefits and risks. Precision agriculture, remote sensing, and decision modeling will both increase production efficiency and mitigate adverse environmental impacts of agriculture. Public concern about food safety has led to new rapid detection technologies that, when fully implemented, will make the food supply safer.
Changing Demographics: Growing global populations, demographic changes, and economic growth will substantially increase the demand for agricultural products, thus creating new markets for U.S. products. At the same time, however, increased agricultural competitiveness from other countries will force U.S. agriculture to become more efficient. Because arable agricultural land is limited, the growing demands will increase pressure to maximize yields, protect marginal areas from unsustainable development, and minimize the harmful effects of agriculture on the environment and the natural resource base.
Changing Structure of Agriculture: The structure of the food and fiber system--from farm to market--changed dramatically in the last decades of the 20th century, and is likely to continue. Change can be seen all across the food and agriculture sectors. An increasing share of U.S. food and fiber is being produced on fewer, larger, and more specialized farms. Production and marketing are more vertically and horizontally integrated. Concentration is greater causing sharp declines in the number of buyers and sellers of a product. Consumer preferences, new technologies, and global markets bring about continuing changes that affect farmers, processors, marketers, and consumers.
Congressional Support: The ability of ARS to respond to the diverse needs of producers and consumers is determined by the level of Congressional support. As a consequence of inflation and higher operating costs associated with advances in research equipment and technology, the ARS scientific workforce, which reached a maximum of about 3,400 scientists in 1970, decreased by almost 40 percent during the ensuing 25 years. More recently, appropriations have allowed the Agency to expand its research program and hire additional scientists to bring the current number of scientists to almost 2,200.
Drug-Free Workplace: ARS will continue to use the applicable contract clauses and regulations to ensure compliance with drug-free workplace debarment and suspension requirements in all of its acquisition programs.
General Comments: In January 1998, ARS requested a waiver from the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) requirement "to describe specific and tangible products, steps, intermediate goals, and/or accomplishments that will demonstrate that the Agency has successfully met each Performance Measure/Goal in a given fiscal year." With OMB's concurrence, ARS is able to use narrative descriptions of intermediate outcomes and indicators of progress instead of numerical metrics as specified in GPRA. The research and technology transfer activities listed in this report are not all inclusive of the Agency's work. The reported accomplishments reflect, but do not adequately capture, the broad range of basic applied and developmental research that underpins the Agency's work.
Only Federal employees were involved in the preparation of this report.

Hi, BIG congratulations on having the dedication to post for 300 consecutive days. WOW!! Keep up the great work and Good Luck in the future! Your buddy, Warren :-)
please post CREDIT prices - it's not fair to compare one station's discounted price to their neighbor's normal price
do you want to become buddies?
Merry Christmas to you & your family, and a very Happy New Year! : )
Best wishes to you and yours for a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Healthy New Year!
Hello Piper0072 -- Great article submission you posted re: "Graphene Membrane...." research study. -- I didn't know this existed, and I really like learning about new, useful technology. -- Thanks, Keep posting! -- I hope you will accept my buddy invitation & Have a great day! : )
Unfortunately, the Grand Cherokee had all the bells and whistles including a big, gas sucking V-8 engine. We felt we had to trade down back in '08 during that gas price spike. We now drive an '06 Audi with a turbocharged, 2 liter 4-cylinder engine. Good mileage, fun to drive and very fast if needed, but I miss not being able to explore the great Arizona outback. Warren :D
Thanks for becoming one of my newest buddies. I hope that you are having a great weekend. Your newest buddy, Warren :o)
Great comment about the Fed's recent move! My comment: We all should own Gold, Silver and Oil Company Stock like Mitt Romney does. All American refineries should figure out how to buy American crude. The United States is the world's THIRD largest producer of oil and the world's LARGEST producer of natural gas. We need to use abundant, cheap and clean American natural gas in the form of CNG as our primary alternative to oil based fuels. We could be energy independent if Big Oil wasn't so GREEDY. Want to become buddies??? Warren :-)
that's a great picture!

Woman Hides Car After Alleged OUI Crash
A woman was charged with operating under the influence after allegedly hiding her car after a crash while under the influence of liquor.
A Marlborough woman allegedly hit a utility pole so hard that it cut off power to a neighborhood and then tried to conceal her damaged vehicle in her garage while driving under the influence of liquor Saturday morning.
"The pole was cut in half so residents and businesses lost power to the area," said Detective Scott DeCiero of the Community Services Bureau of the Marlborough Police Department.
The woman, identified as Robin Casey, 29, of 42 Sumner Street Apt. 1 allegedly drove off after striking that utility pole and attempted to hide her vehicle, said Det. DeCiero.
"(She) then attempted to conceal her damaged vehicle in the garage," he said.
Police contacted her at the residence where they took Casey's statement. She failed a field sobriety test and was charged with a second offence of operating under the influence of liquor, leaving the scene of property damage and marked lanes violation.

What type of vehicle was she driving that it could sustain an impact like that?

The police information officer didn't have that information. I would reckon an SUV. Either way, that would be a terrible advertisement for the automobile's capabilities.

Captain: Michael Allen, Kyle Kobis and Eric Samuel
The competitiveness of prep school basketball has risen to the highest level in the country. Berkshire has been keeping pace with the rising talent level and continues to produce student athletes who are able to compete both academically and athletically at all division levels. Coach Peter Kinne's thirty years of coaching experience has allowed him to connect with college coaches from a wide variety of top academic and athletic schools, including but not limited to Williams, Colby, Northeastern, Delaware, URI, Boston College, UNH, Quinnipiac, Penn and Yale.
The team is generally made up of a mix of college-level players as well as athletes who may go on to excel in a different sport in college. The Bears love an up-tempo, pressing style of play, which has helped the team win several Tri-State League championships along with berths in the New England Class B championship. Berkshire currently competes in the Western New England Basketball conference, which includes all of the area's best prep school programs. The team also competes annually in several different Christmas tournaments, including the Mercer Tournament held at the Hill School in Pottstown, Pennsylvania. These trips allow for extra exposure to other East Coast college coaches.
Basketball at Berkshire is demanding but we never lose sight of what is important as our program educates the whole student, not just for sport or school but for life.
December 2011: With the return of Class B player of the Year, Ahmad Reid who is rapidly closing in on Berkshire's all-time scoring record of 1458 points; our 1000 point scoring point guard Barret Ramsay; the experience and skill of returner Eric Samuel; newcomer Chris McCormick, along with several returning veterans like the Harrigan twins, Charlie Dillon and Dylan Seely from last year's run into the finals of the New England Championship, the winter campaign for 2011-12 looks bright.
Where Some Bears are playing:
In recent years, Berkshire has graduated players who have gone on to play Division I (Michigan, URI, Dartmouth, UPENN) Division II and Division III (Sewanee) basketball.


text: Social Security has been a life-sustaining, life saving part of American culture since 1935. Established after the Great Depression that left many homeless, hungry, and financially disabled, local social security services were created to assist people in need. Originating in various forms of pension programs after the Civil War to help war veterans and their families, Social Security benefits have created better lives for those with no means of income or support. Local social security services offer programs of financial assistance to elderly and disabled individuals. In association with employers, Social Security Administration systematically deducts portions of employee earnings over time to provide for their future financial security. Financial securities are offered through retirement packages and survivor and disability benefits administered by local social security services provided to the public at no cost. Employers obtain social security numbers used interchangeably with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as identifying numbers to withhold social security tax from employee gross salaries. Employers typically match employee contributions. Taxes for Medicare and other benefits are also subtracted from employee earnings at the end of pay periods. Self employed individuals and contractors are required to report their earnings to the IRS during yearly tax filings. Funds are placed into social security accounts. It is important to obtain a social security card for newborns. A typically 12-digit number is issued and becomes important to that person lifetime earnings and future benefits. Working people can retire from these benefits between the ages of 62 and 66 years old. The current retirement age is 66.

Comments about Burton 2L Stagger Snowboard Pant:
I have the 2011-2012 model in black. The waterproofing, which I consider to be the most important feature in hardcore outerwear is pathetic. routinely, I find my bottom, things and contents of my pockets are soggy or worse. Without any abuse, they have failed to live up to the AK name. For full description of these issues. I also have the jacket and has the same problem. These do not live up to the tier of outerwear that they are priced in.
I never experienced anything close to this with my 2008-2009 2L stagger jacket and pant. So disappointed.

Comments about Burton 2L Stagger Snowboard Pant:
My pants are green. They collect dirt and will not come clean no matter what cleaners I use. When I wear them, I look like a slob. I am a professional snowboard instructor. People often comment on how bad they look. Others snowboarders/skiers with colored pants do not have the same problem. I tried to return them to Burton to have them switched for a color that would not show the collected dirt. They would not do anything about them. I am very disappointed in their customer service. You would think Burton would want their product to look good to the snowboard/ski industry.

Mayor Michael Bloomberg and New York City Housing Authority Chairman John Rhea announced a new system Thursday aimed at clearing a backlog of 420,000 repair requests by the end of the year.
In some NYCHA buildings, residents have waited years for repairs, but agency officials hope to only have about 50,000 remaining repair orders by January 2014.
The new system would speed up repairs by making sure the correct type of repair person gets assigned to jobs in the right order.
For the first time, the housing authority will also be required to provide quarterly updates online to the status of repairs.
"We've got to make sure that public housing is as good as it can possibly be, given the constraints of buildings that are aging and funding that doesn't arrive," said Bloomberg.
"They've not only deserve the best, the deserve the best that we can give them as a city, because they give the best to use as a city," said state Assembly Housing Committee Chair Keith Wright.
City officials said they are paying for the program with $40 million in administrative savings.

Two adults were lifeflighted to Vanderbilt and one toddler was transported to MCGH after an accident on Hwy 52 Friday at around noon.
A 2002 Chrysler PT Cruiser was headed west on Hwy 52 E in Lafayette, and slowed to turn into either NCTC or the car lot just beyond it. It was struck from behind by a white 2002 Nissan Maxima, which then veered off across the other lane of traffic and came to rest in the ditch beyond.
The two drivers were Jasmine Clark, age 18, and Debra Marquez, age 58. The two adults who were lifeflighted have not been identified yet by police, neither has the identity of the child or the names of any other passengers.

Easter Eggs
Moon Increases in Size
When it's night-time, take out your Sniper Rifle and look for the Moon in the sky. Zoom in and shoot the Moon. The Moon will increase in size the more you shoot it and then go back to it's original small state when you shot it enough times.Smiley face
On Statunton Island there is a parking lot on the top southwest corner. Look for a white staircase inbetween the parking garage and the parking lot entraces on the southside. Go up the staircase and jump on the short cement railing. Then turn east and jump up on the roof over looking the parking lot (Liberty City Tree Building) and run across the roof to the other side where you will see a courtyard. Jump down into the courtyard and run to the very end of the courtyard to the northwest. Then on a wall at the end of a courtyard has a white picture of a smiley face and says 'Hello Again'. This is the same spot where in Grand Theft Auto III, where a sign says "You arn't supposed to be here."
Bulletproof Stretch
You must be on Staunton Island and on the mission "Search and Rescue" which is given to you by Sal over the pay phone. Go pick up the limo from Sal's garage, then drive the limo to YOUR garage. Do NOT go to the yellow marker. Go straight from the Sal's garage to yours. After the limo is in your garage, fail the mission (die or blow up the limo while it is in your garage) and then the Bulletproof Stretch is yours. This works with other mission vehicles as well.Bullet proof PCJ-600
In the mission "Biker Heat", when you chase down Wayne, kill him WHILE HE'S ON THE BIKE (he cannot fall off the bike or it will not be bullet-proof anymore), steal it, and then save it for a bullet-proof PCJ.Rampage without getting wanted
Start a new game. Instead of taking Vincenzo to the Safe House, leave him in the car and don\'t get in. Now you can roam free and do whatever you want without getting any stars at all!
Keep more than one vehicle in your garage.
Normaly you can only keep one vehicle in your garage due to the fact that if one vehicle is being stored the door will not open for the one your in, so get out of your car (a bike works easier) and push it next to the garage doors, when you get close enough it will open and let you push your vehicle into the garage. This is very handy when you want both a car and a bike at your fingertips.Near Infinite Sprint Trick
Just tap default X button to sprint instead of holding it down. You cycle the sprint so it's like you never start. This can be done at any time; whether during a mission or exploration.Double Ammunition
It is possible to duplicate any amount of ammunition for a specific gun. This happens during any missions or odd jobs where you are driven by someone and have to shoot things with a crosshair and some type of automatic gun with unlimited ammo. Just have the gun in your inventory that you want to duplicate ammo selected before you start the mission or odd job. Certain missions where there is more than just the shooting part only require having the gun selected when you go into the shooting part of the mission. When the mission is completed or failed you should notice the selected gun has twice the initial ammo.Infinite Time for Fires in Fire Truck Missions
To exploit this glitch it's just a matter of putting the fire out as the clock is going to hit 0. If done correctly, the timer will disappear allowing infinite time to cruise to the next fire.Repair a burning car
If your car catches on fire, you can revert it to the state it was before it caught on fire by walking into one of the Information icons in front of a hospital of police station. After the information is displayed, your car is (almost) like new.

A 5-year-old girl chats up classmates while waiting for the bus after school. The topic: Playing with a Hello Kitty "bubble gun" that, with the flick of a finger, blows bubbles everywhere.
"I'll shoot you, you shoot me, and we'll all play together," the kindergartner says.
The next day, that remark -- which was made innocently, according to the lawyer for the girl's family, who related the story -- landed the young central Pennsylvanian child in the principal's office.
Soon after, she was sent home after being issued a 10-day suspension for a "terroristic threat," as indicated on the suspension form signed by Mount Carmel Area Elementary School Principal Susan Nestico. That and other documents were provided to CNN by Robin Ficker, the lawyer representing the girl and her mother.
Nestico did not respond to a request Monday from CNN for comment. The superintendent's office for the Mount Carmel Area School District did issue a statement, stating that "by law we cannot officially comment on the specifics," while expressing confidence that the story circulating in the media "may not be consistent with the facts."
"When given the opportunity in the appropriate forum, we look forward to presenting information that will portray our school district in a more positive light," the school district said.
While the girl and her family haven't spoken on the record -- and asked not to be identified -- their attorney, Ficker, has. He said the child has been very upset since the incident, even after the school system shortened the suspension from 10 to two days.
One piece of evidence he points to is a letter from a professional counselor, an appointment requested by the school, who talked to the suspended girl and her mother two days after the incident. In it, the therapist describes the child as an apparently "typical 5-year-old by temperament and interests" with no history of mood swings, irritability, depression, attention deficit disorder, learning issues or other problems.
Also, according to the counselor's letter, the girl had "no play guns or play knives," either in the bus line or at home, where her mother prohibited them.
"It would appear that (the girl) does not have those risk factors identified for violent behavior," the therapist wrote. "It would also seem that (she) had no harmful or predatory intent in the comments she made to her friends about the bubble 'gun' but did not recognize the heightened sensitivity and awareness of her friends and the response that may result from her comments."

About Me Law Enforcement/Military
Comments about Men's 44908 Elite Lightweight Short:
Live, work and play in a Florida subtropical climate. These shorts are made of a lightweight, comfortable, durable, breathable fabric (cotton ripstop) that performs excellently in this challenging environment. The comfort waist with expandable elastic side panels allow for a greater flexiblity of movement for high activity use. The numerous pockets and their layout allow for a multitude of uses. Great for CCW using small caliber firearms. Reinforced belt loops allow you to use a tactical belt to support a holster for inside or outside the pants carry.Another feature that I love is the metal D ring on the front of these shorts. I use this ring to attach a lanyard for a knive (offshore fishing) and or a small flashlight. Keeps me from dropping my knive in the ocean or losing my flashlight! They are also soft to the skin (garment washing) and they look, wear and feel great no matter what activity you happen to engage in. Only issue I have is their inconsistent sizing compared to the other pants in the ELITE LINE. As other reviewers have commented, they seem to run a size smaller compared to other ELITE pants of which I own many pairs. Size 34 fits me perfect in all of the pants in the ELITE LINE. Size 34 in this short was too tight so exchanged for a size 36 and they fit a little loose but OK with this. Overall, extremely pleased with purchase and would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for lightweight, highly functional shorts.

About Me Occasional Shooter
I love all the pockets, especially for concealed carry and my iPhone fits in one of the side velcro pockets. I was disappointed in that the button by the zipper broke in half the first time I put one pair on. I know there is a spare, but just an inconvenience. Other than that, I have 6 pair and love them.
High Quality and light
By john
from Chantilly, VA
Nice OD green color, and well made shorts. Size is a little on the small size so order one size larger than you would usually order. Elastic on waist band helps on sizing. Pockets are perfect. A very comfortable and light weight short.
Elite products are the best

The shorts are used for casual wear and as the little bear found out "they are just right"!!
A Size Small
By DanF
from Eugene, OR
These are great shorts, but they seem to be small. I got a 36" pair, and they seemed like 34's. I will upsize my next pair and I suspect that I will be very happy.

About Me Casual Dresser
Great shorts. Much more breahable for summers than other tactical brands. Conceals small pocket holster for 2 inch revolvers and small autos. CCW's should love them.With a golf shirt or nice t-shirt, they are perfect for a casual evening out or picnic, or whateever. I'm ordering more for next summer. Have not found a down side.

This is a fine product. I plan to buy more of them.
Nice Shorts, Mostly
These shorts have a shorter inseam (7.5") most cargo shorts, which is why I bought them. The fabric is nice, the color very deep, and I am ultimately satisfied.They run small, compared to the Woolrich Elite cargo pants which I bought recently. I would bump it up 2". Also, the front cargo pockets are smallish but roomy enough for a cellphone or iPod.Not quite as nice as the lightweight cargo pants, but still OK.

Thoughts on the draft
==The Cavs accomplished their greatest quest on Wednesday, getting a player they feel can be inserted into the rotation. As of this moment, it appears Shannon Brown will be the replacement for Flip Murray, though there's a long way to go until next year's roster is complete. Nothing is a sure thing at No. 25 in the draft, but the chances he'll be viable are high.

Monday morning guesswork
Wednesday's NBA Draft is going to be exciting because it is unpredictable. Usually even if the top pick isn't known, you have a pretty good idea of who's going 1-2 or even 1-2-3. This year you don't.

Listening, learning from the 1 percenters
I realize he's controversial and often a whipping boy, but I have to say quite often I find myself in agreement and sometimes in awe in what Mark Cuban has to say. Yes, his views are usually self-righteous and pompous. Yet eliminating that fluff, his perspective on the media and his big picture viewpoint, in my opinion, are often well thought out. I'm not talking about his rants at the officials or the NBA. I'm talking about his principals, such as being "right is its own defense."

Rumor starter alert
I was just listening to LeBron James on ESPN Radio -- he was promoting some comics he's doing in conjunction with Powerade -- and Dan Patrick was asking him about Jay-Z. LeBron said "If he were my owner, it would be great." It was not asked in context of the Nets, in fact Patrick never mentioned that Jay-Z is a part owner of them. Yet I highly doubt that will matter once the NYC machine gets going. So batten down the hatches for another round.

This captcha is like a perfect fit for the RPS world:
So, did this happen at all?
What's the deal with this new wave of users that just post inane comments everywhere? Is is another kind of spam or just annoying people? I didn't want to ask as I don't want start any trouble but it's getting irritating.

I think they are spam in the making. At least one of them had a post that was a giant spam copy-paste, I would imagine either they are posting a lot then going to wait a week and edit them to something more malicious, or they are just getting a post count up before starting new spam threads.
I am presuming this was never implemented? I am probably being stupid but I cant for the life of me see a "start new thread" button! Where is it?
I would appreciate some input as to when I will be able to post a new thread. I only joined here in the hopes of bringing an ongoing issue to the attention of RPS.
In a while, you need to show the spam system you're not a spammer. The best way to contact the RPS Hivemind would be to email them:
I just noticed today that I haven't seen a spam thread in a while. Curious, what was the solution?
I saw a few yesterday. I'm guessing they're just getting better at catching them :)
It's annoying for a newbie like me but I can understand the need.
So, if i reply as i am now, I can now post a fresh question?
Guess i will see in a minute! ;-)
Gah. Can't do anything anywhere.
And here I thought you guys liked me.
I'm in the same boat - I have a pressing question I'd like to ask that I haven't seen anywhere else here, but I can't start a new post. It's frustrating (though I too understand why it's set up this way). What is the minimum post count before I can start a new thread?
Damn, those copy-spambots are frightening. They seem to copy a part of an earlier post in the thread and then post that. Because it's from the same thread and it's a (set of) full sentences, it often fits in perfectly. How the hell do you combat those? I've been reporting them as I happen upon them, but they just seem to become more and more frequent.

A joint initiative of the Centre for Science and Environment and Karnataka State Pollution Control Board
Venue: Auditorium of the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board at 'Parisara Bhavan', #49, 4th & 5th Floor, Church Street, Bengaluru
Date: March 22, 2013 (Friday)
Time: 9 am – 4 pm
Our health is not on anybody's agenda. Or, we just don't seem to make the connections between the growing burden of disease and the deteriorating condition of our environment. We don't really believe the science, which tells us each passing day how toxins affect our bodies, leading to high rates of both morbidity and mortality. It is true that it is difficult to establish cause and effect, but we know more than enough to say that air pollution is today a leading cause of both disease and death in India and other parts of South Asia.
Findings released by the scientists behind the study at a Dialogue Workshop organised by Centre for Science and Environment, Indian Council of Medical Research and US-based Health Effects Institute
Latest Global Burden of Disease count ranks air pollution as a major killer. Deaths caused by outdoor air pollution has increased three-fold in 10 years
Standards already approved by PMO after public consultations
Liquor baron Ponty Chadha and his brother who were killed in a fratricide incident had another business not widely known. Ponty had recently acquired the concession to run public transport buses in Delhi. His company had won the bids for three clusters with a combined fleet of 600-odd vehicles. Now questions are being asked about who will run the business.
Pollution caused from Diwali Crackers
Losing after winning is the worst feeling possible. This is how I feel looking out of my window at a thick pall of black smog engulfing my city. It was this time of the year, exactly 15 years ago, when Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) began its right-to-clean-air campaign. The air in Delhi was so foul one could hardly breathe. That was a time when air pollution was an unknown curse. Not much was known about its nature and the toxicity of the air contaminants.
Jaipur's air pollution has reached a 'critical' level, says latest CSE analysis
Growing vehicle numbers and resultant congestion to blame

Madame Tussauds Washington D.C. escorts guests on an interactive journey through American history. Only here, the past isn't manifested through movies, but through wax. Inside, The President's Gallery brings visitors face-to-face with all 44 US presidents, from Harry Truman to Abe Lincoln and his signature spinning bowtie. Cultural leaders, such as Martin Luther King Jr., stand tall nearby, and rock stars such as Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan compose silent jam sessions in the Vintage Music Room. Hollywood stars, sports heroes, and nonpresidential political figures round out the collection, which can be visited 365 days a year.
Adventurers explore the Roaring Twenties at a time when the museum's doors regularly would be shut tight. Museum-goers wander through an interactive series of exhibits that focus on Prohibition and the history of crime in general, and like apprehended bootleggers and serial jaywalkers, visitors can ink themselves with temporary prison tattoos and decide on a last meal, before springing themselves from the joint to analyze blood splatter like modern forensics experts. Interactive demonstrations in forensic science help museum-goers learn the stories that blood spatters tell before an exploration of prison tattoos shed light on the social orders in the pen.
Since opening in 1921, The Phillips Collection has nurtured an exquisite collection of modern and impressionist works by canvas camouflaging masters such as Renoir, Rothko, Bonnard, O'Keeffe, van Gogh, and Degas. In celebration of its 90th anniversary, the internationally recognized Dupont Circle landmark will orchestrate a rich bouquet of programs, exhibitions, and events throughout 2011 before blowing out the 90 candles blazing on its birthday cake.
Considered to be the country's only public museum devoted to the history of global espionage, the International Spy Museum teems with multimedia displays, hands-on activities, and educational events. Filled with low-lit halls and mysterious doors, the museum backs up its exhibits with experience; many of its board members, staff, and speakers are former spies. Executive Director Peter Earnest, for one, spent more than 35 years in the CIA and its National Clandestine Service; frequent speaker Oleg Kalugin once held a position as major general of the KGB. Through special talks and an array of exhibits, the group reveals several hundred years of spy techniques and gadgetry, showcases connections between real spies and pop culture, and draws from international backgrounds to grant a global perspective.
In the School for Spies exhibit, visitors peruse glass cases filled with submarine recording systems, buttonhole cameras, and audio bugs spanning more than 60 years of OSS, CIA, and KGB activity. Children test spy tactics and midnight kitchen infiltration as they crawl through a mock ventilation system, and visitors of all ages can inspect an Aston Martin DB5 from the film Goldfinger. Groups can walk through a re-created stretch of the Berlin Tunnel, and a spy code begs to be cracked in the Spies Among Us exhibit. For an additional charge, guests can opt to embark on a simulated covert mission entirely based on real intelligence case files in Operation Spy, a one-hour interactive exhibit during which participants ride in simulated truck beds and use video surveillance to find leaked nuclear-trigger technology in a fictional country.
Deemed one of the world's 12 coolest museums by the Sunday Times, the Newseum uses new technology to tell the history of newspapers, journalism, and groundbreaking photography. Beyond the museum's 74-foot engraving of the First Amendment and its glass atrium, 14 permanent exhibits include the News Corporation News History Gallery, where 10 touch screens offer time lines, games, close-up views of publications, and a live cam of Tom Brokaw's nose. Several theaters screen documentaries that focus on journalistic issues, and the temporary Photo Finish exhibit displays legendary sports photographer Neil Leifer's work, including a shot of a victorious Muhammad Ali standing over Sonny Liston while announcing his career transition to badminton. The Berlin Wall Gallery shows how news shaped the story of the wall being torn down, with eight 12-foot sections of the wall on display.
Presidential dentures, a kid-sized dental chair, and interactive brushing instruction are some of the permanent exhibits spanning the space's two floors. The museum also boasts a life-size narwhal model, an exposé on saliva, and a celebration of our country's best dental schools. This upcoming season, stop in to pay homage to the tooth fairy for Tooth Fairy Day, or get a mouthful of mammals on Jaws and Paws Day. View a listing of upcoming events here. Take the whole family (admission for children ages 3–18 is $3, and those less than 2 are free), bring a bad-breathed date for a tutorial on mouth management, or instill yourself with a new sense of appreciation for the dentist.

Kevin Scott Hampton, 33, of Prior Station Road, Cedartown, is in the Polk County Jail on charges of first-degree cruelty to children, simple battery under the Family Violence Act (FVA), third-degree cruelty to children, felony escape and obstruction.
According to Polk County Police Department (PCPD) officials, Hampton was handcuffed and was in the process of being transported in a county patrol car to the jail Saturday, Jan. 19, when he escaped from the car around 4 p.m. in the area of the U.S. 27 bypass and East Point Road.
Hampton told the transporting officer that he felt sick and asked if the officer would roll down a window, according to PCPD Chief Kenny Dodd.
The officer rolled a back seat window about a quarter of the way down.
Then Hampton told the officer he was going to vomit, so the officer pulled the car over. The officer had planned on getting out of the car and opening a rear door for Hampton so he could vomit outside the car, Dodd said.
Hampton, who had managed to work his way out of the handcuffs, reached out the window, opened the rear door and fled on foot, according to Dodd.
Polk County Sheriff's Office (PCSO) deputies and Cedartown Police Department (CPD) were called to assist.
The Cedartown K-9 unit found Hampton 300 feet in nearby woods within a half-hour of his escape.

Omega Nutrition is recognized worldwide as the Premium Manufacturer of Flax and Culinary Oil Products. Certified Organic, Kosher and GMO free, when it comes to EFA and healthy culinary oils, Omega Nutrition made them first...and according to their customers and independent tests, they still make them the best!
Omega Nutrition was the first to:
In 1986, Omega Nutrition was formed and became the first company to bring unrefined, certified organic Flax seed oil to the North American market. This was in direct response to the critical deficiency of the essential omega-3 fatty acid in the modern diet, which was being linked on a nutritional level to chronic diseases (arthritis, psoriasis, heart disease, and certain cancers).
After many years of intensive research and development, Omega Nutrition created a unique process to manufacture fresh, unrefined oils from organic seeds and nuts. Omegaflo® process was created to protect the delicate Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs) from excessive heat, light and oxygen during processing and bottling. Often imitated, the omegaflo® process still stands as the world standard for quality unrefined oil processing.
Omega Nutrition continues to be acknowledged as the forerunner in Essential fatty acid (EFA) nutrition. With continuing research and development, Omega Nutrition has expanded their product line to include an entire range of oils, capsules and other nutritional supplements.
