Everyday Use
December 22, 2010
I have really enjoyed this item, it has proven very useful to me in every day travel for my job. I also like the fact that if you have an item in the bag and it leakes it is contained in the bag not absorbed by your cloth's in the suitcase.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance
Good All-Around Storage Sac
February 12, 2012
This is a great ditty type sack that will hold gear, electronics, small clothes items, etc... I also use them to pack travel snacks. They are well designed and the zip top makes them very easy to access the contents. The other nice thing is their compactness when empty. They stow away using very little space. They are great stuff sacks for backpacking or general travel.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use
Help keep you organized
June 02, 2012
I really like this bag because it helps me keep my backpack organized. I use it to stash items like sunscreen, hand sanitizer, baby wipes, etc. for quick access while on the trail. Unlike stuff sacks, it has a zippered opening and all of your items are not stacked up making it hard to go through them. Another great product from OR.Pros: Great design, Performance, Great value
Very Handy
February 02, 2010
With its wide zipper, it allows easy access and viewing of items. You dont need to dig thru items to detemine if its in this sack as opposed to different sack. But it does not fold and condense like stuff sacks.
Very satisfied with the product
January 08, 2010
Easy to fill, zipper works well and fits easily in pack. I use for trek and base camp gear. The ability to see what is in the bag and easily open and close it is an advantage over regular stuff sacks.
Very functional
April 13, 2011
I use this for my travel toiletry bag, and it fits my toothbrush, soap, razor, and sundries without any problems. The see-through portion is nice, and it is definitely waterproof -- enough to protect against any leaks although the zipper is not completely waterproof. Other than the slightly steep price, there are really no complaints here. I will certainly buy another when the time comes. Outdoor Research makes great sacks and ditty bags.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Cons: Cost
they're great...
March 29, 2010
they are made well and long lasting. i use these sacks for everything from my camera equipment to storing my jackets. a must have for any one, adventurer or not.
Highly recommended
July 09, 2011
I purchased the S, M, and L sizes. Each has it's use. The S keeps the small items together in my backpack, the M is just right for a couple days of food, and the L accommodates my smaller clothing items. The zippers on these sacks make it very convenient to search for the item you're looking for. I highly recommend these to keep the items organized in your backpack and will purchase more rather than something else if the need arises.Pros: Great design, Performance, Ease of use
January 16, 2012
Great design, like the zips open on top. More versatile and cheaper than traditional sacks. Folds up tight so doesnt take much space. The zipper is tough and easy to operate. Works great as a food bag too. I'm surprised in a good way how little smell it retains.Pros: Great design, Ease of use, Great value
April 03, 2012
I love this thing! I use it for general storage in a pack with no extra pockets or any kind of small storage. The material is tough a nails and should last a lifetime! I got the small a basically keep a little survival kit in it and whatever else small I need at the time.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Lasts forever, Cons: Cost
The hygiene bag!
June 03, 2013
The bag for your toiletry items (hand soap,shaving cream,razor,toothbrush,toothpaste,whatever).Looking for your car keys?Look in this bag,it tends to catch everything!If you're looking for a flat bottom,take a piece of stiff cardboard or vener plywood and make one.Pros: Great design, Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Great value

Founded in 1985, Women in Aerospace (WIA) provides women in the aerospace industry with a forum for networking, though membership is open to both women and men. In 1985, Arianespace held a party in Washington for a scheduled launch from Kourou. One woman made a comment to her female colleagues that the assembled group looked like "an old boy's club," which was followed by the idea of creating an equivalent "old girl's club." Shortly thereafter, a meeting was convened at Mary Waggoner's house to determine how to organize, and to define the goals of the group and Diana Hoyt was elected as WIA's first President. There were a series of organizational meetings at various homes along the way as WIA was defined and lawyers assisted with the development of the by-laws.
WIA continues to be dedicated to expanding women's opportunities for leadership and increasing their visibility in the aerospace community.

Is social media ruining your relationship?
It's crazy to think that social media can have an impact on our relationships. We post, tweet, Instagram and allow people to see how our lives play out online. A new survey figured out how social media ruins relationships, and the top two ways are: It makes it easy to find out when the other person lied to you about what they were doing . . . and you can check someone's history to see if they used the same lines and moves on you that they used in the past. So when you think people are not paying attention to what you do online, THINK AGAIN! Your future "significant other" could be keeping tabs on you.Share:

With less than two weeks left in Oregon's 2009 legislature session, Rep. Ben Cannon (D-Portland) and Sen. Floyd Prozanski (D-Eugene) are proposing an updated version of the beer tax they introduced earlier this year, the Bend Bulletin reported June 18.
The modified version of the bill would add a penny per pint to the tax paid by local brewers who produce two million barrels of beer or less per year. All Oregon-based brewers would fall into that group, according to Cannon. Larger brewers such as Anheuser-Busch would see their tax rate increase to almost 10 cents per pint.
In 2002, Alaska passed a two-tiered beer tax increase, and smaller breweries' market shares improved significantly because the tax trimmed the price differential between smaller and larger breweries, according to Cannon.
Critics say that consumers would feel the effects of the increased per-barrel price when retailers and distributors mark up their prices.
Cannon and Prozanski's earlier bill would have increased Oregon's excise tax on beer by about 1,900 percent. The sponsors said the increase would have paid for drug and alcohol addiction services in the state and would have assisted in closing the deficit in the 2009-2011 budget.

Look, Mom! I'm on TV!
Published on - May 23rd, 2013 (Modified on - February 19th, 2014) (by Kristin Wong)
This post is from staff writer Kristin Wong.
"If they cleaned this place up, it could be pretty nice." –My mom's take on NYC.
This week my mom was kind enough to take some time off work and accompany me to New York, where I was a guest on one of her favorite shows, "Fox & Friends."
"Did you know Gretchen Carlson won Miss America?" my mom asked me when I first told her about the interview. She would then tell me this every day for the next three days.
See Kristin's interview here.
At any rate, Fox invited me to discuss a piece I'd written for GRS: My student loan story: How I paid it off in a year.
To be honest—maybe too honest—I'm surprised at how helpful people have found this article to be. Of course I thought it would be somewhat helpful, otherwise I wouldn't have written it. But I mostly thought it would serve as anecdotal evidence that the rules of personal finance really do work: Live below your means. Avoid lifestyle inflation. Make your debt a priority. I figured we all already knew this and my story would just serve as a cute little reminder.
But not everyone lives in the world of frugality. Not everyone's a Get Rich Slowly reader. Not everyone finds time to put much thought into their finances when they're so overwhelmed by them.
In fact, when I was determined to pay off my loan, it was less about financial responsibility and more about OCD. I can't enjoy things without other things being sorted out first. When I was a kid, I couldn't watch a movie at home unless the living room was spotless. I was a weird kid. And that weirdness carried over into adulthood with my student loan debt. Taking a vacation with negative $12,000 was like watching a good movie in the middle of a bad mess.
But back to the interview. There are a lot of issues about student loan debt that you can't cover in a 60-second TV spot. Fidelity recently sent me a study outlining some of these issues:
- The average college debt for recent graduates is now $35,200. That's quite a bit more than my $12,000.
- On average, recent grads think it will take 10 years to pay off their debt, and 7 percent of them think they'll never be able to pay it back.
- A recent MSN Money article discussed how college students aren't able to pay off their student loans. Grads can't find jobs because would-be retirees are staying in jobs longer, as they can't afford retirement.
Obviously, there are a lot of variables that I didn't have to deal with in 2006. I sat awake last night thinking about whether I was oversimplifying advice for these poor grads, who are probably drowning in debt and may be desperate for a job—any job.
Then I thought about the importance of financial education. We get into tens of thousands of dollars worth of debt to learn about journalism or literature or biology, and oftentimes, we go through our 20s (or beyond) without knowing anything about personal finance.
I first stumbled upon GRS after reading a career-related post. I can't quite remember which article it was, but I've been reading the site ever since. In a short amount of time, I've learned so much about personal finance by reading the articles, considering the comments, and now writing my own stories. I've always been frugal, but I probably would've made a lot more money mistakes had I not taken the time to educate myself about personal finance.
If we're going to get into debt for the sake of education, then we should educate ourselves on how to get out of it. And that's where I think the basics of personal finance begin: live below your means; prioritize your debt, etc. Yes, it's simple, but it's a good start.
Congratulations on getting on TV. How does it feel to be a celebrity?
Looking good Kristin! Congrats on the TV spot. Nice natural interview. You might enjoy an article I wrote last week on why the media ignores Asian folks. Kristin represent!
Interesting! I just found and bookmarked it. I'll check it out for sure. My mom and I have had this conversation before, too.
Thanks for the heads up and the kind words!
Wow, congrats on your interview on Fox and Friends! Even though you may have had less loans than the typical grad today it's still an impressive feat to pay what you did in a year. There are several people I know graduating today who don't believe they'll pay their loans off until their 40′s if at all!
Thanks, Kyle!
Hopefully this post didn't read as too dismissive or anything. I'm running on four hours of sleep and a twisty doughnut and didn't have much time to edit!
Congratulations on paying off your debt and getting a spot on Fox and Friends.
Heeeeeey! Congrats! You did great, looked great, sounded great! I've seen your MSN videos and I knew you'd some day be famous! Ha!
Anyway here is the link to the actual clip (I was looking for it in the article but didn't find it, so I'm posting it:
Haha! Thanks, El Nerdo. Oh! I read your recommendation (The Money Book). Good suggestion!
It's a really handy resource for the self-employed. Also, I read the bit about Hugh Chou and am now addicted to his online calculators.
That's so cool, Kristin! Congrats!
Good job spreading the word about how with a little determination and setting some realistic goals, you can achieve astounding financial success! My wife successfully paid off her student loans (totaling over $45,000) in one year as well, in 2011. She used the same techniques you did: she spent less than she earned and she made saving a priority. It was tough to live like a college student while her peers were partying like it was 1999, but they're still struggling to pay their student loan debts, while she's debt free! It's a powerful thing when YOU get to decide where every paycheck goes, rather than Sallie Mae!
A few years after I graduated, I got a windfall and paid off about $16K in student loans. It seemed the obvious thing to do with the money, but I'd be willing to bet some people would have gone out and bought an expensive car. (The amount of the windfall was around $43K, and I did buy a truck with some of the rest, but after I had paid of the student loans).
BTW, I love the line towards the end of the article which states: "If we're going to get into debt for the sake of education, then we should educate ourselves on how to get out of it." Mind if I use it?
Of course! Thanks for reading and commenting!
Great interview! Hopefully you motivated some people out there. Thanks for sharing with us.
"Live below your means." "Save, don't borrow, to buy what you want." Those are two important lessons that I learned from my parents. We lived it everyday. When I became an adult and realized that borrowing and being in debt seemed to be accepted as the norm in life I was astounded. So many people don't have any mental barriers to spending more than they have on wants: Should I buy a new couch OR should I go on vacation? I can afford one or the other but not BOTH.
Because of the lessons I learned as a little girl I'll be able to retire in 5 years, when I'm 63, and be confident that I can maintain my current standard of living. Thanks Mom and Dad!
Wait, are you a UH grad? Go Coogs!!! I love finding other alumni success stories!
Very exciting. And maybe she could get used to NYC!
Wow, not only frugal, smart, and a great writer, but you're completely gorgeous!
No, you didn't oversimplify at all. Under your formula the $35,200 should still be able to be paid back in about (or under) 3 years. That should be doable in anyone's mind.
Congrats on the interview, Kristin! I always love the clarity of your writing and advice. It's great to see you get recognized for your frugality and communication skills. And you're so humble to boot
I like your blog. Interesting, clear and precise. Very valuable information Kristin.
Probably too soon to say don't you know who I am? Good advice. But will you ever be able to relax? I mean, if you buy a house…will be not until its paid off? If you buy a car, will be not until its paid off? I'm not saying that's a bad thing as its always better to operate from a position of financial strength (pay cash for your car, etc).

Stage Nine. Aftermath. During the production shutdown, Marty The Dirty Little Whore Dump apparently incorporated all of his newfound knowledge of the supernatural into a revised shooting script -- especially that little trick with the cell phone and the shotgun -- for we are now watching the bimbo and the fratboy pretty much reenact the earlier scene for the benefit of the movie cameras. The Unctuous McG's way stoked with the results. Meanwhile, Darling Sammy towers above The Dirty Little Whore Dump and, after The Unctuous McG calls for a break, he sighs disapprovingly, "You find out there's an afterlife, and this is what you do with it?" "I need a little jazz on the page," The Filthy Little Dirty Little Dirty Whore Dump shrugs, entirely unrepentant. Sam whatevers and exits as Herb Alpert's "Green Peppers" jauntily kicks in on the soundtrack.
Out on the lot, Wall-Eyed Tara's trailer is rocking. Darling Sammy's not rude enough to come knocking, of course, but then again, he doesn't really need to, for barely has the rocking finished when El Deano barges out, pulling on his shirt. Wall-Eyed Tara emerges into the doorway clad only in a blue terrycloth robe. She leans casually and grins, "You're one hell of a PA." Dean thanks her. Suavely. Saint Sammy Of The Celibately Afflicted clutches his pearls and wigs because he himself will never, ever, ever get laid again after what happened first with his fiancée and then with that motherfucking werewolf in San Francisco. Under Tara's admiringly watchful eye -- and I do mean "eye," singular, because the other one's currently occupied with something happening over by the sink in her trailer -- El Deano ambles off towards the lot's exit as Saint Sammy bewilderedly trails behind.
And in the end, Our Dear Boys walk off into the sunset. Well, it's a backdrop painted as a sunset that gets rolled away just as Dean practically sings, "God, I love this town!" but behind it is an actual, honest-to-God CGI sunset over the studio gates, so, you know. It's there.
Next week: Oh, forget it. The boards are already filled with "Dean drops the soap" and "Saint Sammy sells his brother for cigarettes" jokes. For me to add to them before the damn thing airs would be pointless. "Have a faaaaab-ulous time, my pretties!"

UPPER EAST SIDE, N.Y. (WPIX)—Proud parents Beyonce and Jay-Z may be enjoying time with their new baby girl, but one Brooklyn dad says their special hospital treatment has caused problems when trying to visit his newborn twins.
Neil Coulon, 38, a contractor from Bedford-Stuyvesant, says the power couple's bodyguards have repeatedly barred him from the sixth-floor neonatal intensive care unit at Lenox Hill Hospital. He adds they even cleared the waiting room, kicking out his relatives.
Coulon's wife delivered two premature and underweight girls. Beyonce gave birth to her daughter, Blue Ivy Carter, on Saturday.
According to Lenox Hill employees, Beyonce and Jay-Z paid $1.3 million to seal off and redecorate a wing of the hospital.
The Brooklyn dad says he's not the only person upset by the velvet rope treatment in the hospital and all he's looking for now is an apology.
Hospital spokesperson Anne Silverman said she had not personally heard of the complaints.
Meanwhile, the congratulations from celebrity pals and relatives about the birth of baby Blue Ivy Carter continue to flood Twitter.
"The most beautiful girl in the world," Beyonce's sister, Solange Knowles, tweeted.
Rihanna gave her well wishes, tweeting, "Welcome to the world Princess Carter! Love Aunty Rih."
Sean Diddy Combs added, "Congrats to Jay and B! God bless. And many more."
As for the baby's unusual name, a popular theory is that Blue was chosen to signify producer Jay-Z's Blueprint Albums. Some believe Ivy was chosen because it represents the roman numeral four, (IV) which is Beyonce's favorite number. Beyonce's birthday is September 4th while her mother's is January 4th.

It's 4 am, I've been awake for over an hour and I can't get Toby Keith's "I Love This Bar" out of my head. A 7 am flight to Nashville should do the trick.
The trailer for "Machete Kills" has hit the tubes and to be honest I think I might want to make a baby with this movie. And not just because of Sofia Vergara. Well mostly because of Sofia Vergara. I really like Sofia Vergara. A lot.
NBC has decided to pick up "Hannibal" for a second season despite lackluster ratings in my household. The show got a 0 out of 3 viewership in my home after the first episode sat on my DVR for close to two weeks before I finally said, "I'm never going to watch this" and then deleted it. I don't know what those TV big wigs are thinking.
Michael C. Hall has been confirmed to be playing the lead in Jim Mickle's big screen adaptation of "Cold In July". The story follows a man who finds himself in hot water after he kills an ex-con's son. I like to think that Michael C. Hall and C. Thomas Howell are really good friends and do everything together. But that's just me.
I haven't seen "Demons" or "Demons 2" since I was just a wee lad but I do remember enjoying them a great deal. And now I can relive those watercolor memories thanks to the folks at Synapse because they're releasing both flicks on Blu-Ray later this year in a limited edition steel case. Why they hell do you need these films in a steel case? I have no idea but they're chock full of extras and someday could be worth 3 to 4 dollars more of less than you originally paid. Get em while they're hot.
The Maryland kid who got suspended from school for shaping his Pop-Tart into a gun has been given a lifetime NRA membership. So that all worked out for the best I guess. I look forward to hearing of his prison sentence in 5 to 10 years.
Now I don't condone driving drunk at all but if you're going to do it you should probably do it like this guy in New Mexico who got into a car crash while being under the influence and having sex with a woman. But seriously, don't do it.
Trouble in Miami kids. It looks like Showtime and Michael C. Hall have yet to come to an agreement on a contract to extend Hall's run as "Dexter" two more seasons. Seems that Hall wants a shit load more money and Showtime only wants to give him a crap load. It's getting pretty heated. If an agreement can't be reached it looks like season 6, which premiered this past weekend could be the last.
The list of people who want nothing to do with "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" continues to grow with one Miss Blake Lively now passing on the leading role. Natalie Portman, Emma Stone and Mia Wasikowska have also given a big "aww hell no" to the role. I don't want to jinx it but this sounds like wonderful news for Monica Keena. It's only a matter of time before she gets offered the role.
A bunch of new stills have found their way onto writer/director Darren Bousman's twitter page for "The Barrens", a new flick that follows a family on a camping trip where they run into the Jersey Devil. Hunky "True Blood" star Stephen Moyer takes lead in this one along with Mia Kirshner, who I don't know but from her IMDB picture I assume is a ball buster. I mean that in the best way possible.
"The Lost Coast Tapes" is a new found footage flick that follows a group who encounter the one and only Bigfoot. The forest beast not the monster truck. Although that would be pretty cool if it was just a bunch of kids being chased around by a giant truck. Anyway this isn't that. It's about the big hairy guy from the beef jerky commercials. I think we've gone off topic though. Take a look at the new poster for the flick. It's got a guy impaled on a tree. Grave Digger would probably be scarier anyway.
It's Halloween time kids and that means all kinds of creative lawn decorations. Like this one in North Carolina of a fake body stuffed under a riding lawn mower. Of course people in North Carolina are pretty dumb so a bunch of people called 911 when they saw it and a big to do broke out. Silly hicks.
Good news, Canada! You can now legally dress up like a woman, watch Simpsons porn and have sex with a Cabbage Patch Doll hooked up to a vacuum cleaner without fear of legal persecution. Long live freedom!
Hugh Jackman may be looking to turn in his claws for a set of torture tools as rumors start to leak that he is now attached to the upcoming thriller, "Prisoners".
Clive Barker is back behind the keyboard again, this time with a new short story collection titled "Black is the Devil's Rainbow: Tales of a Journeyman".
Michael C. Hall sits down with Entertainment Weekly to discuss The series finale of "Dexter" as well the future of the series.
A Brooklyn man is stabbed to death on the elliptical machine at his local gym, apparently for not letting the thugs have their turn. You'd think all that stabbing would keep them in shape. Guess not.
I'm not necessarily saying that Marijuana is safer than alcohol... I'm just saying that a high dude would never burn down his house because his wife wouldn't give him a cigarette. He'd probably just take a nap and hope she'd changed her mind by the time he woke up.
For you DVD Collectors and "Dexter" fans out there, season 3 is now out on DVD and ready to grace your book shelf.
Just like the previous two sets, "Dexter Season 3" clocks in with pretty much the same package. You get all 12 episodes, a few cast interviews and a few extra episodes of other Showtime series such as "The United States of Tara" and the "Tudors".
This week we discuss alchemy, camera technology, a first time guest host joins the show, and we review "As Above, So Below".

Bridesmaid Dresses: Dare To Be Different
All bridesmaids are not created equal. The truth is that as women we are all very different. From our shapes, to our skin coloring, hair, height and beyond, we are all unique in one way or another.

They want to feel chic, comfortable and like themselves. Designers are reflecting this new mindset in their bridesmaids creations.
The Donna Morgan line offers many different styles of bridesmaid dresses in the same color family, as well as long and short versions on the same dress! The ability to outfit each individual in a style that makes them feel and look fabulous on you're big day!

You're girls will be thanking you for years to come!

$ 11.99
This isn't your ordinary gun cleaning mat! Show your pride for your firearm while using this high quality neoprene rubber backed and cloth top gun cleaning mat to protect your gun bench, desk, kitchen table, or whatever surface you usually clean or maintain your gun on. You likely keep your gun in a soft padded case or maybe a gun cabinet with a felt lined rack or something similar to protect it so why would you scratch your gun while cleaning or repairing it by setting it on a hard surface that could easily scratch your firearm?
The soft polyester top will ensure your gun doesn't get scratched while the neoprene rubber backing on the mat will keep everything in place and prevent your work surface from sliding around. This mat will also keep harmful chemicals, oil and dirt from penetrating down to your desk, bench or the area where you normally clean and work on your firearms. After the mat begins to accumulate too much dirt, chemicals, or oil just throw it in the wash on a gentle cycle, allow to air dry and it will be virtually like new.
With the exploded view drawings and accompanying parts list, making repairs, disassembling your firearm, or basic cleaning can be done much faster and with greater enjoyment. Guns are extremely fascinating and the drawings and data that is printed on each mat will keep you entertained while educating you on how your firearm operates.
This gun cleaning and parts mat measures 11 inches by 17 inches and is 1/8 of an inch thick.

Painting Kitchens
You can use our paint on kitchen cabinets using at least 2 coats of paint and then give it two or three coats of wax to seal it. Our wax is water repellent and strong and makes a good connection to the paint. Our paint is meant to give character and interest rather than a perfectly smooth 'plastic' finish of some paints. Refresh every now and again with some more wax when it needs and to clean with a good cleaner.
Annie Says, "No need to sand or prime although in the areas where there is a lot of use like the cutlery drawer it might be wise. I am assuming the kitchen is wooden. If you are painting onto laminate or an extremely shiny surface it will not adhere so well."

Dominick Wright, 40, is behind bars in Harris County and is charged with exploitation of a minor and interfering with custody for taking a 16-year-old Harris County girl to his home in Cobb County and allegedly sexually assaulting her. The girl was later brought back to her home the next day.
The victim is a 16-year-old girl with an elementary level mental capacity who was reported missing by her parents.
In his preliminary hearing on Nov. 13, Wright was charged with one count of sexual exploitation. He was given a $25,000 bond. Wright was ordered to have no contact with the victim or her family. He also cannot have unsupervised contact with minors and cannot use any internet devices such as a computer or a cell phone.
This case will be transferred to the Superior Court.
Wright allegedly met the teen from Harris County in an online chat room. The conversation then went to text messages, where sexually explicit messages were exchanged between Wright and the teen.
Deputies from the Harris County Department met with the girl, who told them she had a sexual encounter with an adult man.
Wright was later arrested in Cobb County.

Proposition 8 was a 2008 California ballot measure that banned same-sex marriage. In August 2010, a federal judge struck down the ban, which was left in place during the appeals process.Photo: Activists on courthouse steps earlier this morning.

Exploring and Evaluating the Effects of Strategic Positioning on Firms Performance with Regard to Physical and Perceptual Positioning
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to analyze the strategic positioning in door manufacturing industries operating in Iran and to identify the main factors which may have significant influence on the adoption of a physical and perceptual positioning strategy by a firm.
Design/ Methodology/ Approach - The paper considers six firm-specific characteristics which can be associated with the adoption of a physical and perceptual positioning strategy which include: technical characteristics, physical characteristics, objective criteria, paying attention to customer's needs, perceptual characteristics, and subjective criteria.
Findings - The results indicate that there is a positive relationship between technical characteristics and physical positioning, a positive relationship between subjective criteria and perceptual positioning, a significant relationship between physical positioning and strategic positioning, and a significant relationship between perceptual positioning and strategic positioning. However, there is not a positive relationship between physical characteristics and physical positioning, there is not a positive relationship between objective criteria and physical positioning, there is not a positive relationship between customer's needs and perceptual positioning, and there is not a positive relationship between perceptual characteristics and perceptual positioning.
Originality/ Value - The paper adds to the international data on physical and perceptual positioning by providing what may well be a first influencing factor on industries operating in Iran situations for production.
Key words: Strategic positioning; Physical positioning; Perceptual positioning; Competition; Differentiation

Comments about Sesame Street Cookie Monster Baby Costume:
I was worried after reading some reviews on this costume from other customers, however, all those worries ended when I received the costume. I put it on my son and it seemed like it was tailor fitted to him. It is of very good construction and the fit was true to size. I would highly recommend this costume to other parents.

Comments about Sesame Street Cookie Monster Baby Costume:
This costume was much cuter than some of the other Cookie Monster costumes I have seen. I kind of wish it was one piece instead of two (because my son kept taking off the head piece) but it wasn't a big deal. The velcro closures were kind of flimsy and one of them wouldn't stay closed on the back, but the costume stayed on and it all worked out. One thing to note is that these run very small. My son (23 months) and a friend (16 months) both had to buy the 3/4T size to get a proper fit. My son got lots of compliments!

Comments about Sesame Street Cookie Monster Baby Costume:
I bought this costume in a 2T for my grandson who is a small 18 month old and it was so small I couldnt get it to close in the back. Was disappointed and since I couldnt exchange it - I had to send it back and the larger size was out of stock.

Acquisitions Information
This collection was created by University Archives from a variety of sources.
Processed by: Kelly Clark; machine-readable finding aid created by: Kelly Clark, February 2008. Updated by Stephanie Barnwell, January 2012 and July 2012.
Scope and Content Note
The University Archives Photograph Collection Student Life Photographs document life on campus for undergraduate and graduate students attending North Carolina State University throughout its long history, although the bulk of these pertain to the years after World War II. Included are general photos and slides depicting campus life; academic life, encompassing studying, classroom time with faculty, and so on; people at the university, especially African American students, who were finally admitted to the university in the mid- to late 1950s as a result of desegregation; social events and other activities, including protests, community service, concerts and outdoor festivals, and recreational activities; graduation ceremonies; and other facets of student life. This collection also includes a few scrapbooks as well as some clippings and other materials from NC State News Services.
Historical Note
In 1887 the North Carolina General Assembly created the North Carolina College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts as the state's land-grant institution to provide teaching, research and extension services to the people of the state. The College officially opened its doors in 1889, with Alexander Holladay as the first President. Classes began that fall with seventy-two students, six faculty, and one building, Main Building, later Holladay Hall. Two general fields of study were available, agriculture and mechanics, with a third in applied science added in 1893.By 1917, the school's teaching, research, and extension activities were broad enough that the Board of Trustees agreed to a name change: North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering, thereby officially adopting the "State College" colloquialism that had been in use for years. Further reorganization was undertaken in the 1920s, when the college expanded its curriculum and established the Graduate School.
Economic hardship and a lack of funds during the Depression years of the 1930s threatened to undermine the advances of the 1920s, until sweeping education reforms were passed by the state legislature. The result was the Consolidated University of North Carolina, wherein three state universities – UNC at Chapel Hill, the Women's College at Greensboro, and State College in Raleigh – were combined administratively in order to combat inefficiency and redundancy in public higher education. Th college underwent another reorganization and another name change, this time to North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering of the University of North Carolina. The Consolidated University arrangement existed until 1971, when it was superseded by the sixteen-campus University of North Carolina system, still in place today.
As the Depression slowly receded, North Carolina State College renewed its growth and development. Enrollment reached new heights, passing the 2,000 mark in 1937, and many of the school's programs saw significant growth, particularly in extension and engineering. World War II and its aftermath, however, wrought more drastic changes to the academic and physical landscape at State College. Enrollment during wartime suffered greatly, dropping below 1,000 students by 1943, and many academic programs were greatly curtailed. Despite these difficulties, the College did make contributions to the war effort, hosting a number of military detachments and training exercises, and refitting the work of several departments and programs to military and defense purposes. Then NC State experienced growth unparalleled in its history during the postwar years. The G.I. Bill brought thousands of ex-servicemen to campus, and enrollment shot past the 5,000 mark in 1947. The College struggled to provide academic and residential space for its new students, and major new programs were created to meet the demands of the expanding student body.
Although the 1950s generally represented a time of quiet growth and reorganization, several significant changes did occur during that time. Academically, several programs achieved national recognition, including work in agriculture, engineering, and design. The college also saw major building projects, with over a dozen newly constructed buildings appearing on campus. Most significantly, and a change that occurred with relatively little fanfare, was the admission of the first African-American students to State College, in 1953 (graduate) and 1956 (undergraduate). The institution faced the same turmoils during the sixties and seventies that confronted larger American society, but perhaps the most turbulent on-campus imbroglio was that over the institution's latest name change, which began in 1962. State College officials desired to change the institution's name to North Carolina State University. When Consolidated University administrators approved a change to the University of North Carolina at Raleigh, many were outraged. Protests and letter-writing campaigns sought relief from this proposal, and finally in 1963 a compromise was reached, with State College officially becoming North Carolina State of the University of North Carolina at Raleigh. Students, faculty, and alumni continued to express dissatisfaction with this name, however, and after two more years of political wrangling, the name was once again changed, this time to North Carolina State University at Raleigh.
Known as the "People's University," North Carolina State University has developed into a vital educational and economic resource, and a wealth of university outreach and extension programs provide services and education to all sectors of the state's economy and its citizens. With a student body of nearly 30,000, nearly 2,000 faculty, and research and program expenditures over $440 million, the University is an active part of North Carolina life.

December 29: A report was taken after a number of fraudulent checks were presented on the account of an elderly Blaine resident. Fortunately the intended victim's financial institution caught on to the scam and the checks were returned unpaid.
December 29: A grocery store in the 1700 block of H Street reported they had two juveniles in custody for shoplifting four bottles of alcohol. An officer arrived and arrested the two juveniles, ages 13 and 14. Store personnel reported there had been a third suspect, but he got away. Officers determined the identity of the third suspect, a 13-year-old boy, and arrested him at his home. All three juveniles were released to their parents and charges for shoplifting and minor in possession of alcohol will be submitted to the prosecuting attorney.
December 29: A man called the police department to report his wife had violated a no contact/protection order by driving past his new residence on at least two occasions. The man felt it was a deliberate violation because, in his opinion, she could have no other reason for driving down that street. The woman's actions did not constitute a violation of law and no further police action was taken.
December 28: Dispatch reported a physical dispute in progress in front of a business in the 600 block of Peace Portal Drive. Upon arrival an officer witnessed a woman holding a man by the front of his sweatshirt and punching his chest with her other hand. The officer separated the involved parties. A 22-year-old Lacey, Washington, woman was booked into the Whatcom County jail on charges of assault four domestic violence.
December 28: A concerned parent called the police department to report a person driving a white colored Ford Explorer had stopped in front of his residence in the 600 block of H Street and screamed at his son. The individual was apparently angry about something that had occurred at the skatepark earlier that day. The boy had not been at the skatepark that day and neither he nor his father had any idea what the person was talking about. Police were unable to identify the angry individual, but the incident was documented in the event further problems were to occur.
December 28: A woman reported the theft of a wallet out of her unlocked automobile while she was returning videos at Blockbuster. An officer was in the area of the shopping center and arrived within a couple of minutes following the report, but neither the suspect nor stolen wallet were found.
December 27: A young boy came into the police station to report a medium sized white dog with black spots had run after him near his home. The boy was not injured by the dog. Officer checked the area, but could not locate the dog. The Whatcom Humane Society was advised of the complaint.
