pod2g has handed over his A4 untethered jailbreak to the Chronic Dev Team in order to concentrate on Apple A5 chipset devices, namely the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. The Chronic Dev Team will test and finish his A4 untether for release as soon as possible.
I need to focus on A5 and hope I can find a path quick, and I have the feeling that chronic-dev could help me. I gave all the details to the chronic dev team so that they can finish, test, integrate and release the A4 jb ASAP. I'll put all my energy from now on on the A5

redsn0w has been updated to version 0.9.9b9d in order to fix a few bugs. This update comes right after an update to ultrasn0w and after adding support to redsn0w for iOS 5.0.1.
pod2g has shown off an iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak running on an iPhone 4.
Here is a new video demo of the current status of the 5.0.1 jailbreak running on an iPhone 4. This is meant to reassure people that were thinking it only works on older iPods. The jailbreak is near ready for prime time (excluding 4S and iPad 2).
Hopefully iPhone 4S and iPad 2 owners won't have too long to wait, however, as he previously said he'd overcome the cache issues on A5 devices -
An untethered jailbreak for Apple A5 chipset powered iOS devices (namely iPhone 4S and iPad 2) has finally been achieved according to pod2g's most recent blog entry. He updated his blog yesterday stating he had hit a stumbling block but would update us today again. He's kept true to his word and let us know today that he's overcome the cache issue and achieved an untether.
OK, figured it out, the A5 cache is not a problem anymore. I sorted it out by doing the untether in a single thread and by flushing all the dcache then all the icache in a row at a strategical point of the process.
pod2g has updated his blog with the current status of his iPhone 4S jailbreak he's been working on. The good news is he seems to be working extremely hard on this one. The bad news is he seems to have hit a bit of a snag when it comes to the untethered part.
The untether fails right now because I'm having processor cache issues.I'm close, but I can't figure out what happens. It certainly has something to do with the Cortex-A9 cache management.I could sort it out quick, it's a matter of chance.I'll report you my progress tomorrow.
Famous Chronic Dev-Team member, pod2g, has confirmed that his untethered jailbreak is working on pretty much all devices with an Apple A4 system-on-a-chip running iOS 5.0.1. On top of A4 devices, he's also got an untethered Jailbreak for iOS 4.3.3 on the AppleTV 2 working.
Just to be clea
pod2g has posted a video showing off an untethered jailbreak for iOS 5. When and if it will be made public has yet to be said.
hello. No it does not rely on [Charlie Miller's code signing vulnerability]. Next step do the same on iOS 5.0.1. Should be quick.
According to later a tweet sent out by pod2g, it looks as if it will work on iOS 5.0.1 which is great news for all the folks that already updated.
Chronic Dev Team member @pod2g let the jailbreak community know that he's discovered a new bug in iOS 5 that may allow for an untethered jailbreak in the future.
Hey jailbreaking friends, I've found a bug that can untether iOS 5. Don't expect a release soon, but I'm gonna work hard in it.
Currently, the only way to jailbreak iOS 5 is by tethering your iPhone to your PC or Mac and re-jailbreaking with RedSn0w each time a reboot is needed, which can cause a lot headaches for users on-the-go.
If you're a jailbreaker you're probably wondering what the iPhone 4S and iOS 5 GM mean for you. And if you plan on upgrading, will you be able to jailbreak? As with any new software or hardware release, we can't be too sure of what this means for jailbreak but here is what we do know:
Stefan Esser, better known as I0n1c has put together a rather detailed presentation on the latest iOS jailbreak techniques. The presentation was made recently at Black Hat 2011 in Las Vegas. The presentation consists of 97 slides in total covering subjects like Kernel Debugging, Kernel Exploitation and Kernelpatches from jailbreaks.

Sunday, November 11, 2007Rarebit Fiend!I've produced another Brainiac audio slideshow, a print version of which appears in today's Ideas section. Click here to watch "Fiendishly Inspiring." What is today's slideshow about? Not long ago, I blogged about "The Complete 'Dream of the Rarebit Fiend'," a gorgeous archival collection -- edited by independent scholar Ulrich Merkl -- of the wildly imaginative comic strip published in American newspapers from 1904 to 1911. "Rarebit Fiend" was written and drawn by Winsor McCay, who -- according to Merkl -- supplied many ideas later used in comic strips, animated cartoons, and movies. I found Merkl's case so convincing and amusing that I wanted to present it to Brainiac/Ideas readers myself. Now you know. For example: The 1930 surrealist classic "L'Age d'Or," directed by Luis Bu�uel, so outraged audiences that it was banned in France, and wasn't released in the United States until 1979. This is ironic, since the scenes in which a man kicks a dog, slaps a lady, beats a blind man, and throws a cleric out of the window bear a striking resemblance to a 1906 "Rarebit Fiend" episode in which a girl dreams that her father kicks a dog, slaps an elderly woman, beats a blind man, and throws his grandmother out of the window. Merkl also points to scenes in "King Kong," "Dumbo," "Mary Poppins," and Tim Burton's 2005 film version of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory." Now that every screenwriter in Hollywood is on strike, Merkl�s book, which is only available at www.rarebit-fiend-book.com, might come in handy. PS: In January 2006, Ideas published an essay by Jeet Heer on "Dreams of a Rarebit Fiend." Heer was writing about another fine collection of McCay's work, titled "Dreams and Nightmares" (Fantagraphics). PPS: Did you miss the first Brainiac audio slideshow?

Hi moderators,
I just posted a comment, then realized that I've made a typo and when to edit my post... But the edit button is not there anymore. This is on an iPad 1 using the IPF app. All I see is Share, Report, Quote...
By the way, that Report button is really to close to Quote button. You should put that in an advance menu or somewhere else cause I often click report instead of quote, when I want to reply to a comment.
Thanks for the great work!
VicoPad addict!

Mo. House panel backs bill nullifying gun regs
Enforcing new federal gun regulations could send Missouri officers to prison under a bill endorsed by a Missouri House committee.
The committee voted 9-5 on Tuesday to advance the bill that would criminalize the enforcement of federal gun control laws enacted after Jan. 1 of this year. The vote was along party lines with Republicans supporting the bill and Democrats in opposition.
The panel also advanced a bill barring federal regulation of guns that are manufactured in Missouri and remain inside the state's borders.
Committee Democrats tried to amend both measures to require that guns be securely stored when they're not in use. That effort failed.
Both measures now head to the House Rules Committee for further consideration.

Actually works!
January 07, 2012
I was somewhat skeptical and the pouch sat in my closet for many months. But on a recent trip to Cancun, we went out on a motorboat excursion and fortunately I had placed my camera (a Canon Powershot SD950 IS) in my pouch. We got caught in an unexpected downpour in the open seas, unfortunately. If not for this pouch, my camera would have gotten completely drenched along with the rest of my belongings. I was also surprised that the zoom feature of my camera was still workable (the product description said it wouldn't work# but I think if you have enough room left in the pouch, the zoom has enough space to move out, so if in doubt about sizing, err on the size of larger, rather than smaller. Also, be really careful when opening your pouch. The pouch is not supposed to allow water to enter when fully sealed, but I noticed that when you do open it, water droplets do enter and any condensation trapped inside your pouch can easily short circuit your electronic devices. Save the dessicant enclosed with your pouch bc it can help to dry it out if you should get any moisture inside. In fact, opening it upside down on top of a bed or something #to catch your camera) might be a good idea to keep water from going in when you are unsealing it. Also, happy to note that my iphone was operable inside it. Overall, great product and I will buy more!
Pros: Build quality, Performance, Ease of use, Great valueMake sure it's sealed correctly

I bought this for use on a cruise for my digital camera. I feel that it is a good waterproof case (after testing it in the sink full of water), but operator error caused it to leak and the small amount of water that got in the case ruined my camera. I had a small crease where it snaps together, which you are not supposed to have, and water did get in. I don't blame the case, and I hope that my mistake will save others from having the same problem.
August 25, 2006
The case was perfectly waterproof, and took pretty good photos. It was great in the rain, everyone else was taking "quick shots" and quickly hiding the digital camera. But not me, I could take the time to compose my shots and never had to worry. I could even work the controls too.

Fits a Canon SD800IS fine and the photos during kayaking turn out fine, but it's difficult to press the buttons on top of the camera. Still, there isn't any other product that offers this much protection.
Too small for a Konica Minolta digital camera

Took great pics snorkeling in St. Thomas
January 27, 2007
By far a great investment for capturing moments that normally would be hard to get without this product. I used it on our vacation to Play Del Carmen Mexico. I was able to carry my camera into the beach as well as a local water park and was able to capture quality pics. I had a lot of people asking me what my pouch was. I strongly recommend it if you have a slim digital camera, as it might give a few problems with a thick camera if you have a zoom lens. I plan on using it on every trip that might involve water.
Great product, but requires a bit of patience and skill
March 23, 2006
I recently used the aquapac compact digital camera case during my trip to Hawaii. The bag did a fabulous job at keeping my camera nice and dry, but made underwater picture taking a little awkward. My snorkeling pictures taken on a sunny day in shallow waters came out the best, but I found that pictures taken above water turned out blurry due to water drops on the outside of the case. I have used disposable underwater cameras before and those pictures did not come out half as good as the pictures I took with the aquapac.

Members are often interested in the processing of CCA legislation. Ideas for legislation come from members, committees or Board members. In June or October, those ideas, with their rationales, are presented to the CTA State Legislation Committee on behalf of CCA by the CCA Vice President and the members of CCA sitting on the CTA State Legislation Committee. These ideas are then sent to various departments of CTA for evaluation. At the October or February CTA State Council following the introduction of the initial ideas, the bills are presented to the CTA State Legislation Committee. Our Legislative Advocate then finds an author to carry the bill and follows the bill as it makes its way through the state legislature. || Read more ...
In this engaging feature, "Before They Taught At A Community College", seven of our fellow CCA members share their unique stories. Although teaching is a long-established and respected profession in of itself, many a professor who enters the community college environment comes from an entirely different career path – and that's a good thing. In community colleges, more so than the K-12 or four-year colleges and universities, real-world work experience is not only accepted, it is valued and sought-after. Even with that, however, making a professional career change has its challenges. Here's how several CCA members responded to questions from the CCA Advocate's Dina Martin. || Read more ...

In volume 1 of CCA History Makers: The Story of CCA Told By CCA Leaders (1965-2009), CCA Past President Carolyn Inmon brings us face-to-face with the inspirational leaders who preceded us courageously and tirelessly, fighting to achieve the working conditions we have today. That is why she chose to tell the story primarily from the mouths of those leaders. In winter 2006, CCA past presidents were asked to present a panel at the CCA Academy for Building Strong Locals. The idea was born: we need to record this interesting history before we lose any more of our past. The interviews began with staff members Ed Romeo, Chris Maitland, and Diana Fernandes-Lisi. We also began interviewing CCA Presidents. || Read more ...

Former Boise State cornerback Jerrell Gavins doesn't know what he'll run in the 40-yard dash Thursday in his long-awaited chance to show NFL scouts his skills.
He isn't worried about it, either.
He hasn't run a 40 in nearly two years because of the knee injury that cost him most of the 2011 season and slowed him at times in 2012.
"All I know is I can play football and shut down receivers," Gavins said. "That's all I can say. I've got film on that."
Gavins was overshadowed last season by teammate Jamar Taylor, who has climbed to No. 4 in the cornerback rankings by ESPN draft analysts Mel Kiper Jr. and Todd McShay.
Taylor impressed at the Senior Bowl and NFL Scouting Combine, and will go through position drills Thursday at Boise State's pro day.
Gavins didn't play in an all-star game or draw a combine invite. He and the other Boise State prospects who didn't attend the combine will perform the same athletic tests done there.
"I've been sitting down too long," Gavins said, " so I'm ready to display all the things I can do."
Taylor and tailback D.J. Harper, who also attended the combine, will draw most of the scouts' attention.
But Gavins, defensive tackle Mike Atkinson and fullback Dan Paul also are on the radar. Other players expected to participate include linebackers Tommy Smith, J.C. Percy and Dextrell Simmons, defensive lineman Darren Koontz and offensive lineman Brenel Myers.
Paul, who missed the 2011 season with a groin injury, said he feels stronger and faster going into pro day.
"It's been really relieving not having the pounding of practice and to just really get a focus on training and working toward what we've always dreamed of," he said. " It'll be a fun show."
Gavins is healthy for the first time since he severely damaged a knee in a freak practice accident three games into the 2011 season. He played every game last season, but coaches eased him back into the lineup.
Gavins combined with Taylor and the rest of the Broncos defense to hold opponents to a national-low four touchdown passes against 18 interceptions (four for Taylor, two for Gavins).
"Since high school, I've thought about this day," said Gavins, whose 5-foot-9 frame is a key liability. "Every day I was in the weight room training, I was thinking about having to bench 225 (pounds, the combine strength test). That's why I don't feel any pressure. I've prepared for this so much and I've been through it so many times in my mind that whatever happens, happens. I just know I can play football."

MTV VMAs 2011: Best and Worst Moments

Film crew members make adjustments to a car-mounted camera as actors Edward James Olmos and LisaGay Hamilton wait in the front seats in Calexico on Monday afternoon during the filming of the feature film "Go For Sisters." (CHELCEY ADAMI PHOTO / August 7, 2012) |
CALEXICO — Sweat ran down film crew members' faces as they filmed a scene for the feature film "Go For Sisters" in midday heat at the corner of Grant and Lincoln Streets in Calexico on Monday.
The drama starring LisaGay Hamilton, Yolonda Ross, Edward James Olmos and Hector Elizondo is about two childhood best friends, so close they "go for sisters," who reunite more than 20 years later when one is a parole officer for the other.
The film is written, directed and edited by John Sayles. It is his 18th feature film with others including "Return of the Secaucus 7," "Brothers from Another Planet," "City of Hope," "Lone Star," and "Passion Fish."
While mostly known as an independent film director, Sayles is also an Oscar-nominated screenwriter and author.
Production for "Go For Sisters" began three weeks ago in Los Angeles, and the two-day film shoot in Calexico will continue with scenes shot in the downtown area today before the crew moves on to shoot in various locales around both Mexicali and Tijuana.
Producer Peter Bobrow said the area was chosen since it was integral to the plot with references to the relationship between Calexico, Mexicali and the local Chinese population.
"We're an independent film so we like to shoot on location," Bobrow said. "John (Sayles) is known as one of the premiere independent filmmakers. Independent films started with him in a lot of ways."
One scene will include a tunnel built for the film shoot that refers to the Mexicali Chinese underground tunnels known in local lore.
The film is entirely privately funded, which Bobrow said allows for more creative control. It's expected to be released sometime next year.
It's been an unusually busy August for film shoots in the Valley. A two-day film shoot for a Fiat commercial occurred in northern Imperial County over the weekend, and the New York Film Academy is coming up to shoot in Bombay Beach next week, said Charla Teeters, executive director of the Imperial County Film Commission.
Filming in the Valley normally picks up as the weather cools down and continues until around May. Each time there's a film shoot in the Valley, the community gets an economic boost as film crews stay in local hotels, eat at local restaurants, fill up at local gas stations and more.
The Fiat commercial film set included a 50-plus person crew and had an estimated economic impact of $52,500 while the smaller film crew of about 20 to 25 people for "Go For Sister" had an estimated economic impact of about $16,000, Teeters said.
"It stimulates our local economy, and it's a way Imperial County is represented to the rest of the world," she added. "The more people come down and represent our area, the more people will be familiar with Imperial County."

Did we win?
I did everything wrong. I can't wait until the next one
I PR'd in my FIRST half-marathon; you can, too. Ask me how!

From the Sulphur Springs 10K in May.
Attempting to climb the last of the numerous steep hills:
Trying to "pick it up" right next to the finish chute:
I feel like I look exceptionally young in some of these (I'm 20). I personally was proud of the dirt and blood on me, I had many people ask if I had finished (I wiped out at the 6km mark after most of the worst hills were over so there was no way I was stopping)

JONESBORO, AR (KAIT) – The Jonesboro mother who was charged for forcing her 10-year-old child to walk 4.5 miles to school, had her court date continued.
According to the Craighead County District Court's Office, 34-year-old Valerie Borders had her court date continued to April 30. Borders is charged with endangering the welfare of a minor in the second degree.
On Monday February 13, the Jonesboro Police Department says Borders put her 10-year-old son in danger by forcing him to walk almost five miles to school as punishment.
Officers determined Borders forced her son to make a 4.5-mile trek to school from their home at Fairview Drive. Nequavion Borders, 10, had recently lost his bus-riding privileges for the fifth time from MicroSociety magnet school, located at 1110 West Washington.
His mother sent him to school on foot Monday as punishment for the repeated suspensions. He only made it a few blocks before he was picked up by police.
"She did the right thing," Nequavion said. "She knew that I had been suspended off the bus five days, so she didn't do nothing wrong. She made me walk. I just had to walk. They shouldn't have picked me up. I could've walked by myself."
Valerie Borders did not want to make a comment, but she did allow her son to speak on her behalf exclusively to Region 8 News. He says he now realizes why his mother wanted to teach him a lesson and "not to just get on the bus and act a fool."
Nequavion made it to the busy intersection of Highland and Stadium and crossed the Liberty Bank parking lot. A security guard approached the boy, apparently surprised to see a child in the area alone.
"Anytime you see a child out walking like that, ask yourself a question – is that safe for the child?" Sgt. Lyle Waterworth with Jonesboro Police said. "If you wouldn't want your child doing it, we probably don't need somebody else's child doing it."
Waterworth says the guard did the right thing by calling police. According to the police report, when officers arrived, the boy asked them, "Please don't take me home, mother will beat me." He also told police that he was advised not to stop walking or talk to anyone until he made it to school.
Police drove the boy to school and then paid a visit to his mother, who was at home on vacation from work. Police wrote Valerie Borders a ticket and gave her a court date.
She will appear in Craighead County District Court on April 30. If convicted she could face up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine.
Borders' son, however, said he does not want his mother to get into trouble for him misbehaving. He says he knows now to behave better on the bus.
"She should not be going to court," Nequavion said. "I learned my lesson. That was me that was getting suspended off the bus."
Region 8 News will continue to track this story and provide any updates, as they become available.

SPF Projects-Cohort 4
Reduction of Printing and Paper Use in a Veterans Administration Medical Center
While the Veterans Administration (VA) has made great strides in moving toward electronic medical records, the administrative end of the VA Medical Centers still remain firmly rooted in paper based systems. Recycled toner cartridges and paper with recycled content are being purchased, however, these expenses can be reduced significantly with little or no reduction in efficiency and operations. This project would analyze and document current use, prepare and execute a plan to reduce the printing and paper use at the medical facility.
United States Postal Service (USPS) Review of Green Procurement
The USPS is undertaking a system-wide review of its green procurement program. This review is taking place to improve USPS capabilities in identifying green products, tracking purchases, and determining the costs and benefits of a green procurement program. The project will focus on procurement decisions involving the purchase of products costing $500,000 or more. Specific tasks include identifying the universe of major vendors subject to green product reviews, determining data reporting requirements and objectives and, recommending strategies to track and promote "green" purchasing.
United States Postal Service (USPS) Redeployments for E85 Efficiencies
The USPS relies on the local commercial infrastructure to supply convenient and competitively priced fuel for its delivery fleet. The utilization of E85 is limited by this commercial availability. This project requires the review of locations of all E85 vehicles in the fleet that are not currently operating on E85. This is followed by determining the closest Post Office redeployment location with commercial, competitively priced E85. The final report would include the original location of the vehicles, identification of the lowest cost opportunities to relocate the vehicles, and justifications for the change.
United States Postal Service (USPS) and Save the Rain Initiative
The USPS recently announced a partnership with Onondaga County, New York, on its unique Save the Rain Initiative. An 11,300 square foot green roof will be built atop the Colvin-Elmwood Post office at no cost to USPS. USPS has more than 30,000 buildings in nearly every town in the USA and would like to examine the possibilities of similar partnerships with state, local, and city governments and universities to increase its portfolio of green roofs. The goal of the partnerships would be to increase the longevity of facility roof structures, decrease the environmental impact of facilities, and do it at no cost to the USPS. The Project deliverables include a report of potential key geographic locations for green roofs, potential partnerships, contact information, and a potential USPS Green Roof site list.
Sustainable Communities Partnership
The Sustainable Communities Partnership established a five year partnership to develop and implement sustainability through voluntary programs in Central Texas (Fort Hood and neighboring cities). The goal is to achieve measurable benefits by agreeing upon common goals and implementing partnership-guided projects that contribute to the vitality of the Central Texas (CENTEX) economy. This project will assist Fort Hood in engaging with the broader community to increase sustainability and highlight how local businesses, especially small businesses, can meet the community's sustainability needs. The requirements include the development of activities that would get local businesses to support the efficient use of materials and resources, and education on sustainability.
Commit to Efficiency Campaign
Every year, inefficient products in the federal government waste almost half a billion dollars' worth of energy. The Commit to Efficiency campaign is a way for individuals involved in federal purchases to make a difference. The goal of this campaign is to save $130 million worth of energy (7 trillion BTUs) by December 31, 2013, and in doing so, establish a network of committed practitioners. The Fellow will assist in assuring that the program offerings help meet federal procurement staff needs. Some functions include producing and commenting on the content of training courses, and ensuring that resources to identify compliant products/contracts are clear, effective, and useful for a procurement audience.
Lifecycle Analysis
Many buyers do not consider the "use phase" of a product when making a procurement decision. Buyers procure the product with the lowest initial cost, expending unnecessary funds and Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHGs) that would have been saved if a lifecycle based procurement decision were used. This project requires working with Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) staff to correctly identify products sold through GSA that should carry an energy-efficiency designation and quantify potential cost savings from procuring energy efficient products based on a "true cost" or lifecycle analysis.
National Institutes of Health (NIH) Substances Of Concern (SOC) Initiative
In collaboration with GSA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the NIH is implementing the SOC Reduction Initiative. This initiative is to develop and deploy the processes needed to promote the agency's procurement of healthier, less hazardous and polluting products. This includes publication of an Interim List of SOCs as well as guidance on SOCs and reduction strategies. The integration of SOC identification, reduction and tracking processes in NIH's Purchasing Online Tracking System (POTS) will also be included. The early results from the implementation of NIH's SOC initiative will be evaluated and developed into a case study. Lessons learned will be used to develop and deploy applications that can be used by other federal agencies, and nongovernmental organizations involved in the development of standards and ecolables.
Mobility Solutions
In budget constrained times, GSA is sought after by agency customers to provide solutions that reduce costs through the minimization of environmental impacts. Mobility is a solution that can provide significant energy related cost savings to customers. This project will look at developing the materials and a marketing plan for providing mobility services to GSA customer agencies. The Fellows will work closely with GSA Customer Account Representatives (CAR) to explain the costs and benefits of mobility solutions to customers.
Technical Specifications for ultra low temperature (ULT) freezers
Since there is no standard for evaluating the performance of lab grade freezers, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) began a case study to evaluate the energy consumption and performance of ULT freezers. A ULT is a freezer that can reach temperatures from -50°C to -86°C. The NIH evaluated the best performing units and developed the business rules to replace inefficient units with more efficient models. This project requires assistance in the development of technical specifications for evaluating the procurement of lab grade freezers.
The examination of protocols to develop a uniform standard for reporting green attributes is required. Other evaluations include those for the performance and energy consumption for various configurations, the lifecycle, and maintenance contracts. A case study on the sustainability of managing ULT freezers in owned space versus a leased space will also be done.
GSA's Region 9 Sustainability Document
GSA's Pacific Rim Region (Arizona, California, and Hawaii) is working on a tactical sustainability document. This document will provide a holistic, enterprise-wide framework, replete with strategies to meet and exceed the goals as enunciated in Executive Order 13514 and other statutes. Through various discussions held with the stakeholders and Regional leadership, there is a need for a case for change, description of the "as is" status quo with establishing a benchmark using data from the 2003 timeframe, strategies for increasing the market share, and the identification of barriers. The Fellow will work on the collection of this data, which will lead to the creation of a Regional Sustainability Plan, and ultimately procurement strategies that will serve GSA and its customers.
GSA Move
In the Fall of 2013, GSA will be moving an entire regional operational from one federal building to another. There have been tactical efforts to assist in making the transition, but there is a need for a more integrated approach, focused on sustainability efforts. This project requires Fellows to understand how to help acclimate employees to a new environment, particularly in the move from a corporate culture of individual offices/workstations to an open/collaborative and "hoteling" space concept. Measures will be created with regard to sustainability and open/collaborative spaces. The deliverable is a draft communications strategy.
National Institutes of Health (NIH)- Development of Data Resources and Protocols
Laws, regulations, and Executive Orders are mandating that products and services purchased by federal agencies meet an increasing array of requirements relating to sustainability. Currently, most Environmentally Preferable Procurement (EPP) guidance consists of narrowly defined single attributes applicable to a limited array of specific "designated products" as they are delivered. This ongoing project at the NIH consists of various activities relating to the development of data resources and protocols for evaluating and selecting products/services.
The basis of which is a concurrent assessment of conformance with multiple sustainability attributes, other procurement requirements and cost. NIH's current initiatives for development of sustainable acquisition tools, and strategies for reducing procurement of Substances of Concern (SOC), will be used as background for designing the resources and protocols. Final deliverables may consist of case study reports, protocols for product selection based on multiple attributes, and recommendations and business plans for establishing and operating the proposed interagency database.
