Factors Affecting US Pork ConsumptionMonday, May 16, 2005
By Christopher G. Davis and Biing-Hwan Lin, Economic Research service, USDA - This articles discusses the Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals, which looks at the pork consumption in the US.
Pork ranks third in annual U.S. meat consumption, behind beef and chicken,
averaging 51 pounds per person. The Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals (CSFII) indicates that most pork is consumed at home. Pork consumption is highest in the Midwest (58 pounds), followed by the South (52 pounds), the Northeast (51 pounds), and the West (42 pounds).
Rural consumers eat more pork (60 pounds) than urban/suburban consumers (49/48 pounds). Pork consumption varies by race and ethnicity. Blacks consume 63 pounds of pork per person per year, Whites 49 pounds, and Hispanics 45 pounds. Higher income consumers tend to consume less pork. Everything else remaining constant, demographic data in the CSFII suggest future declines in per capita pork consumption, as increases of Hispanics and the elderly—who eat less pork than the national average—enlarge their shares of the population. However, total U.S. pork consumption will grow because of an expansion of the U.S. population.
Although pork is not consumed by certain populations or in certain regions,
it is one of the preferred meats in the world and the United States, ranking
first in per capita meat consumption in the world and third in the United
States (fig. 1). It accounts for approximately 50 percent of daily meat
protein intake worldwide (U.S. Pork Manual, Today's Pork Industry). In
2003, pork accounted for almost 42 percent of red meats (beef, pork, lamb,
and veal) consumed in the United States.
Americans' consumption of pork helps fulfill the daily recommended amount of protein. While a great deal is known about pork's nutritional value and its production, much less is known about its consumption. Very little analysis has been done on who eats various pork products in the United States, how much is eaten, and where. Analysts at USDA's Economic Research Service (ERS) have conducted studies on Americans' consumption of nonalcoholic beverages and various fruits and vegetables, grains, and other foods, but this is the first time pork consumption has been analyzed from a similar perspective. Understanding the basic factors underlying pork consumption will help ERS improve its analysis of supply and demand shifts in the U.S. pork market, and will enable the industry to design effective marketing strategies and to predict future demand. For example, the changing racial/ethnic landscape in the United States and the "graying" of Americans will probably reduce future pork demand (Lin et al., 2003); Hispanics, the fastest growing ethnic group, eat less pork than Blacks or Whites, and as people age they reduce their food consumption.
This report presents the results of an analysis of the most recent data from USDA's Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals to determine the factors affecting fresh and processed pork product consumption (see box Data and Methodology). A descriptive analysis was conducted on the distribution of pork consumption across different marketing channels, geographic regions, and population groups.
Data and Methodology
Since the 1930s, periodic surveys of household and individual food
consumption in the United States have been designed and administered by
the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The most recent are
the 1994-96 and 1998 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals
(CSFII), conducted by USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS). Data
from the 1994-96 CSFII are representative of noninstitutionalized persons
living in the 50 States and Washington, DC. In 1998, an identical survey
was conducted to augment the data, the CSFII sample for children. In
2002, CSFII was integrated into the National Health and Nutrition Examination
Survey administered by the Department of Health and Human
Service's National Center for Health Statistics.
The CSFII surveys were administered to people of all ages to collect dietary intake data for 2 nonconsecutive days, 3 to 10 days apart. In each interview, participants were asked to recall what they had eaten over the last 24 hours. The 1994-96 CSFII contains responses from 15,303 persons who answered questions about the types and amounts of food consumed. The 1998 CSFII survey collected data on 5,559 children up to 9 years of age. For more information about the CSFII, visit the website at www.barc.usda.gov/bhnrc/foodsurvey/.
The respondents provided a list of foods consumed, as well as information on how much of each food was eaten, and where and when each food was eaten. Several categories were used for coding locations where the food was purchased. An array of economic, social, and demographic characteristics of individuals—such as respondents' level of education, household income, race, age, and gender—was also collected. This rich database can be used for estimating the market and consumption distribution of a selected food by numerous delineations.
U.S. Pork Consumption Patterns
Pork consumption has fluctuated slightly in the United States, with per
capita consumption declining by 10 percent between 1960 and 2003 (table
1). In 1960, per capita pork consumption averaged approximately 59
pounds. Consumption actually peaked in 1944 at 81.1 pounds, fell to 48
pounds per person in 1997, and rebounded to 53 pounds in 1999. Per capita
fluctuation from 1999 to 2003 varied only slightly (USDA, ERS, 2004).
The occasional observed declines in consumption are usually associated with higher pork prices (USDA, WASDE, 1998-2002). Each American consumed an average of 51 pounds of pork per year, retail product, during 1994-96 and 98 (USDA, ERS, 2004), or 2 ounces per day.1
The recent growth in the hog industry was partly due to advances in technology (McBride and Key, 2003; Boehlje, 1992). Technology has been introduced into the hog industry through structural change, genetics, and better management and breeding practices. This has led to pork and pork products of consistently high quality (Martinez and Zering, 2004). As the seventh-largest U.S. farm commodity in cash receipts, the pork sector continues to produce large quantities of pork products, estimated at a record 20.5 billion pounds in 2004 (USDA, WASDE, 2004). Total pork consumption has increased over the past years and is expected to continue increasing as the U.S. population grows.
We used the 1994-96 and 1998 data to estimate the distribution of pork consumption by economic and demographic characteristics. The per capitaconsumption of 51 pounds (retail product) was multiplied by the market share (which is measured in percent) for each economic and demographic characteristic to derive per capita pork consumption by characteristics.
Calculating Per Capita Shares
One way to describe the various consumption shares is by converting the survey shares into information already familiar to those in the agricultural industry: per capita disappearance. The per capita use data presented in the tables for 1994-96 and 1998 were calculated by distributing the ERS food disappearance data for pork for those years, using the CSFII survey data as distribution factors and then dividing by the average population from 1994- 96 and 1998. This presents the share of consumption described in the survey in terms of pork consumption per person.
Processed Market Dominates U.S. Pork Consumption
In this study, pork is separated into two main product types, fresh and
processed. Fresh products are those muscle cuts of pork purchased from
wholesale markets by food services or from grocery meat counters directly
by consumers, cooked just before eating. Processed pork products are
transformed by grinding, curing, smoking, or seasoning prior to wholesale
or retail sale. Both categories can include frozen products.2 The 1994-96
and 1998 CSFII data indicate that 38 percent of the pork consumed was
fresh and 62 percent processed. Applied to the 51 pounds per capita pork
consumption noted earlier, Americans consumed, on average, 19 pounds of
fresh pork and 32 pounds of processed pork per year in 1994–96 and 1998.
(fig. 2).

Source: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service, based on data from Agricultural Research Service, 2000: 1994-96 and 1998 Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals.
The consumption of individual pork cuts within each main product type can
also be estimated with CSFII data. Individual cuts in the fresh pork category
included pork chops, pork steaks, ribs, fresh ham, other fresh pork, and
pork parts (such as fat backs, cracklings, ears, tails, heads, feet, neck bones,
salt pork, chitterlings, liver, rinds, pork skin, and tripe). The processed pork
category was disaggregated into lunch meats, hot dogs, bacon, sausage,
smoked ham, and other processed pork.
Pork chops held the largest market share for all identifiable fresh cuts, followed by fresh ham, pork steak, and pork ribs (table 2). Over 28 percent of the fresh pork eaten by Americans was pork chops, while fresh ham accounted for 13 percent. More than a third of all fresh pork consumed was nonspecified pork cuts. Processed pork dominates U.S. pork use. The average person consumed more smoked ham (14.4 pounds) than any other processed pork product. The second-most-consumed processed pork products were smoked sausage (6.5 pounds) and processed nonspecified pork (4.9 pounds). Bacon and lunchmeat (including hot dogs, etc.) were the thirdand fourth-most-consumed processed pork at 3.2 and 2.8 pounds per person.
Lower Income Households Report More Pork Consumption
In the CSFII survey, households were classified into three income brackets
using the Federal poverty guideline. For reference, the Census Bureau
reported that the weighted average poverty income threshold for a fourperson
household was $15,961 annually during 1994-96 and 1998, derived
from the U.S. Department of Commerce Statistical Abstract of the United
States, 2000). The poverty guideline was developed by the U.S. Dept. of
Health and Human Services for the implementation of Federal food
programs. Some of these programs, such as the Food Stamps Program, have
used annual household income at 130 percent of the poverty level to determine
eligibility. The present study uses 130 percent of the poverty-level
threshold to define the low-income category—about 19 percent of U.S.
households. About 39 percent of households had income exceeding 350
percent of the poverty level (called high-income), while 42 percent of households
had income falling between 130 and 350 percent of the poverty level
The CSFII results indicate that consumers in high-income households consumed less pork per capita, both fresh and processed, than did those in low- and middle-income households (table 3 and fig. 3). Per capita consumption of fresh pork was highest among low-income consumers, and of processed pork it was highest among middle-income consumers.

I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised with this product. I can never achieve any kind of volume on my hair, no matter what I do. I blowdry my hair and to eliminate the frizz, I need to use a lot of products which weigh down my hair. By the time I'm done blowdrying, my hair is flat as a pancake on the top. After I used this product, I truly had volume! The key is to use a TINY amount, like a nickel size, otherwise, it will create a paste like texture in your hair. I ended up sprinkling a tiny amount on each finger (total of nickel size all fingers combined) and rubbed my fingers together, and then rubbed the product into my roots with each finger. Oh my gosh, volume galore! This really does work. Those who say that it's sticky, you're using too much. The price is awesome and I will be using this quite often. This is a hidden gem!!

This is FAB. If you need volume, backcomb/tease, use dry shampoo for volume then run to get this. It's super-cheap and really great. A fine powder comes in a little sat * pepper shaker style container that you sprinkle or dust into the roots of your hair. It kind of binds to the hair and gives you instant thickness and lift at the roots. Marvellous, and it really works. I heard that it was a celebrity I admires' must-have hair product so I bought some for about £3. My only reserve is I think a spray or pump action dispenser would be better. When I'm trying to reach the back I can't always judge how much I'm putting in. When you do put too much in it can get a bit gunky. So glad to have it in my arsenal, esp as it's so inexpensive.
This stuff works great in my hair: colour-treated and dry at the ends, oily at the roots, usually wear it naturally wavy or straighten it into submission. This powder is fantastic for volume and lift. Its mattifying and kinda gives it a sexy slept in vibe. I only wish it would last longer. I sprinkle it in my hand and rub it through the part that need some volume. Its very tacky, and you definitely wanna wash your hands after use
This is the only product I've found so far that ACTUALLY gets some volume in my hair! I love it!! Definitely only for the roots though because it does leave them feeling a little rough/sticky. But you wouldn't be able to tell by looking. This texture is necessary to give roots that "full" look. It lasts all day for me which I love since I don't like to so
- no blow drying needed
- volume in temporary
- hair feels sticky
COMMENTS: Well, I like that you don't have to use a blow dryer like most root lifters. This will give amazing volume, but it doesn't last long at all. It also gives the hair a very sticky, gross texture. I got this to avoid teasing my hair, but it's the only way to really make the volume last with this. Unfortunately, teasing mixed with the texture this stuff leaves...your hair will be a huge mess.
Will not repurchase.
This is a fun little styling product for those of us who need a little help with volume. For reference, I have straight, flat, relatively thin asian hair.
There are two ways to use this: 1) sprinkle it directly into your hair/roots, or 2), rub some of the product between the palms of your hands til the product goes clear, and then apply to your roots/hair. It is tacky so it will make your hair kind of stick to itself to create that volume. If you rub it in roughly, you will get ratty/messy looking hair (especially with method 1). You tend to apply less product using method 2 so I find it generally gives a less "crazy" result. It can feel dry and gritty, but that's how it works to give you volume. Its a good alternative to back combing.
This is not HG for me, but it is definitely fun to work with and can come in handy. It does give instant volume, but it doesn't really stay. To refresh my style during the day I just have to use my fingers to fluff it up. Its really best for a more messy look. If you want a smooth but volumized look that lasts all day, I suggest using a volumizing product and blow drying the volume in instead. If that doesn't do the trick, add a little bit of this for extra oomph.
This retails between 5 and 9$ so its pretty inexpensive if you look out for deals, and you only use a little at a time.

This product did nothing for me apart from make my hair feel dry and disgusting.
Oh yeah, this stuff works! Last week was the first time that I've ever heard of these styling powders (was I living under a rock?). I tried it on freshly washed and dried hair (no other styling products used), and it was like a miracle. I've never had volume like this, nevermind volume that actually lasts! I have loads of long, straight and very fine hair that is so slippery it doesn't hold curl. I can use a ton of volumizer, any brand, and my hair takes all of half an hour after styling to fall flat,and you'd never guess there's any product in it. I dusted some of this in at the roots, massaged it in, and wow! Volume that lasts till you wash it out. A slight drawback is that this stuff does make your hair feel a bit grungy where it's applied and if you play with your roots too much your hair can look snarled and tangled, so just keep the top layer of your hair smooth and you'll be fine. I also have to shampoo my hair twice, and very thoroughly, to get all this stuff out, but it's a small price to pay for finally finding a volumizing product that works. I'll be repurchasing this again and again.

Really works. If you know how to use it. Will buy again.
Read reviews on here complaining that it made their hair sticky and tacky? If used properly, this is not the case and certainly wasn't for me. It's just like all of the other pro volumizing powders out there, minus the high price tag.
Tip: Do NOT rub this product into your scalp or use on anything other than freshly clean hair. Instead, turn your head upside down, aim for where you want the volume and LIGHTLY sprinkle near root area, shake the hair around it to move it around (I sometimes take a blow dryer on cool to the area just to be sure) then flip back over. Boom. Done.
7 out of 7 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This product is absolutely amazing. It gives an incredible amount of volume for a fraction of the price of other powders. I have purchased several times and will continue to do so. It has an odd cooling sensation which is nice for summer and it can be a bit difficult to wash out but it is SO worth it!

A record-tying 100 companies, including 27 new honorees from last year, have been selected as a 2014 Best Place to Work in Indiana, the Indiana Chamber of Commerce announced. Actual rankings for the companies will be unveiled at a May 1 awards dinner, presented in partnership with Hylant, at the Indiana Convention Center in downtown Indianapolis.
These top companies in the state were determined through employer reports and comprehensive employee surveys. The Best Companies Group, which handled the selection process, oversees similar programs in 21 other states.
Winners were selected from four categories: small companies of between 15 and 74 U.S. employees; medium companies of between 75 and 249 U.S. employees; large companies of between 250 and 999 U.S. employees; and major companies with 1,000 or more U.S. employees. Out-of-state parent companies were eligible to participate if at least 15 full-time employees are in Indiana.
This year saw the most number of applicants ever for the program, said Indiana Chamber President and CEO Kevin Brinegar, in a press release.
"We have a lot of great employers in Indiana that are providing a productive, employee-friendly work environment that also leads to success for the organization," he said. "We are happy to recognize those companies which took part in the program and encourage even more companies to join the process for 2015."
For organizations on this year's list that have displayed sustained excellence during the program's nine-year history, there is additional recognition.
Hall of Fame companies are those that have been named a Best Place to Work in Indiana at least two-thirds of the time in the program's history; a total of 23 organizations on the 2014 list meet that criteria. Two companies – Edward Jones and Katz, Sapper & Miller – have made the Best Places to Work list all nine years of the program. The Pinnacle recognition is reserved for those that have finished first in their category three or more times in a five-year period. The two Pinnacle companies are Microsoft (first in the major employer category in 2013 and in the large category in 2011-2012) and Edward Jones (tops in the large employer category from 2006-2008).

WASHINGTON (AP) - An experimental device is letting paralyzed people drive wheelchairs simply by flicking their tongue in the right direction. But they had to get their tongue pierced first.
The system is being developed by a Georgia Tech engineer, in hopes of offering the severely disabled more mobility and independence. Wednesday, researchers reported that 11 people paralyzed from the neck down rapidly learned to use the Tongue Drive System to pilot wheelchairs through an obstacle course. And the device operated a computer, too.
Here's how the system works: The tongue is pierced with a magnetic stud that resembles jewelry. A headset detects the tongue's position when the user flicks that stud. The headset beams that information to a smartphone. An app then commands the wheelchair or computer cursor to move.

Do you believe Miley Cyrus is a slut, or not?With the crrsooventy of her new music video for Who Owns My Heart, I personally DO NOT believe she is a slut. people need to get their heads out of their asses and learn that she is almost 18 and let her do her thang. she IS NOT Hannah Montana anymore, nor will she ever be. i think the video is hot and good, and think nothing is wrong with it. why are people complaining about it? oh my god, she is wearing a blindfold on a bed and running around in her t-shirt and underwear and dancing slightly sexy in a club scene. hide your children! so fucking what!? you would think she was simulating a blowjob or wearing just bra and panties while dancing in water that was falling from the sky as she rubbed her butt against a guy's crotch in the middle of a train as it was going bump, bump, bump and rubbing her tits in his face. look at Britney Spears' I'm A Slave 4 U at age 20. not that far behind. your children WILL NOT grow up to be sluts if they watch her music video (well, not most of them)!

We installed these seats in a small 16' aluminum boat that had the old back-to-back seats which took up too much room. With these seats, we put the drivers seat on a box where we keep our first aid kit and fire ext. and the passenger seat we put on the pedistal so we can remove it easily when we need more room to haul gear. It works great!

I bought these seats 2 months ago knowing they were the economy chair. That being said I thought I would get a few seasons out of them. I finally installed 2 weeks ago and used the boat about 5 times. Already all 3 seats the aluminum frame is just bending and so the seat is mishaped and ready to fall apart. Complete junk, Just wish I had known because I would have spent the extra money to buy something better. DON'T BUY

I really appreciate the courtesy entended on my calls. It says a lot for companys to stand behind the products they sell. I recently had a problem with 2 seats and the problem was solved by sending 2 new seats at no charge for the seats or for freight. I let people know about Overton's if they have a boat and need items to replace. The ony negative comment is regarding the way the new seats are drilled out for attaching to the boat. I had to improvise the hinge to get it to fit properly. Maybe the solution would be to include an adapter kit for cases such as this.

I was concerned as to if this seat would work for what I actually bought it for and that was my tractor. It worked perfectly. It even came with the mounting screws of which was a surprise. The seat is very comfortable and has great back support which my old tractor seat did not have. Plus tractor seats retail for minimum $90 if you can find them for that price and then they don't even have a back on them.

Darrelle Revis - #24 - CB
|5' 11"/ 198 lbs.
|Aliquippa, PA
|Years played
|2007, 1st round, 14th pick by Jets
Fourth-round pick McKnight signs with Jets
RB Joe McKnight, the Jets' fourth-round pick, signed with the team Tuesday.
Jets CB Revis will attend minicamp
Jets CB Darrelle Revis, who skipped a voluntary OTA session last week, said he will attend the team's mandatory minicamp June 14-16.
Jets sign rookie FB Conner
The Jets signed fifth-round pick FB John Conner to a four-year deal, according to a New York Daily News report.
Report: Jets CB Revis skips OTAs
CB Darrelle Revis is said to be in negotiations with the Jets about a new contract, and he's apparently staying away from voluntary OTAs to show how unhappy he is with his contract situation.
Jets could look to add competition for PK Folk
The Jets' roster is short on glaring holes, but placekicker could turn out to be a major headache for the club if Nick Folk can't regain the form that led him to the Pro Bowl after the 2007 season.
'Hard Knocks' effect: Will Jets be distracted?
As some of you know, I have gone a bit against the tide on the Jets this offseason. And I am wondering if they need the distraction of "Hard Knocks" heading into the season.
Recovering Jets NT Jenkins working on dropping weight
Just six months after undergoing surgery to repair a torn ACL, Jets NT Kris Jenkins is hoping to return the field for a mandatory June minicamp, which would be a surprisingly quick recovery.
Reports: Jets QB Sanchez 'limited' in drills
QB Mark Sanchez returned to the field for the first time since undergoing knee surgery as the Jets held their first organized team activity of the offseason Monday.
Ready or not, Jets' Ducasse expected to start
Scouts said Jets OLG Vladimir Ducasse lacked polish heading into the draft, but he won't be afforded the luxury of learning from afar before getting thrust into a game situation.
By the numbers
The Ravens' relatively low sack total in 2009 is one of many NFL numbers on the mind of PFW's Mike Wilkening.
2010 draft choices by team: Jets

Reports: Jets cut OG Faneca

Seahawks acquire RB-RS Washington from Jets
Not long after acquiring LenDale White from the Titans, the Seahawks traded for another backfield weapon late Saturday morning, picking up RB-RS Leon Washington from the Jets in exchange for Seattle's fifth-round draft pick.
Ducasse a value, need-based pick for Jets
The Jets found a luxury in the first round when they added CB Kyle Wilson to an already talented CB corps. They opted to fill a need with their second choice.
Jets bolster an already top-notch CB corps with Wilson
A rich defensive backfield went to the bank again on Thursday, as the Jets deposited Boise State CB Kyle Wilson with the 29th overall pick.
Revis reported Monday for the first day of the team's voluntary offseason conditioning program, a few hours after having an MRI exam at a hospital in Manhattan.||||||| Revis, who has been rehabilitating his surgically repaired left knee in Arizona, did not speak with reporters who were waiting outside the entrance to the Jets' training complex, driving past without acknowledging them.
Revis has started to run again as he rehabilitates from a torn knee ligament while his future with the New York Jets remains uncertain. The star cornerback, sidelined most of last season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee, is shown running on a treadmill and doing a variety of drills in a segment on NFL Network that aired Thursday.||||||| Revis, the subject of trade rumors, will report to the team's practice facility in Florham Park, N.J., on Monday for the start of voluntary workouts. Revis didn't address the trade rumors, but says, "We'll see what happens." Revis will meet with his surgeon Russell Warren, the Giants' team doctor, in Manhattan and have an MRI exam Monday before heading to the Jets' facility.
Revis needs to participate in the New York Jets' voluntary workouts beginning next week, according to a clause in his contract, to collect $3 million in bonuses he's scheduled to earn.||||||| The star cornerback, the subject of trade rumors, has been rehabilitating his surgically repaired left knee in Arizona, but is expected to report to the team's facility in Florham Park, N.J., for the start of the Jets' offseason conditioning program next week. ESPN New York first reported on Sunday, according to sources, that the Jets planned to enforce the language in Revis' contract that requires him to participate in the workouts to get the bonus money.
Jets star cornerback Darrelle Revis, the subject of trade rumors, has earned a $1 million roster bonus as a result of a clause in his contract with New York.||||||| According to the clause, the bonus kicked in on Saturday since Revis remains on the Jets' roster - not traded or cut - at the end of the business day. There has been intense speculation over several weeks that the Jets will try to trade their best player, who is recovering from a torn knee ligament. Some believed that move could come by Saturday so the Jets could avoid the clause, but Revis' bonus counts on the Jets' salary cap, whether or not he stays on the team.
A few hours after Revis said he was "speechless" about rampant trade talk, new Jets general manager John Idzik reached out to the star cornerback Thursday to ask to "give us a chance" to evaluate the entire roster.||||||| Idzik told NBC's Pro Football Talk on Friday that Revis "reacted well" to the phone call, which came after the GM, owner Woody Johnson and coach Rex Ryan were non-committal about the cornerback's future with the team. Revis expressed his frustration on Twitter, prompting the call from Idzik, introduced as the replacement for the fired Mike Tannenbaum hours earlier. Revis, recovering from a knee injury, is expected to draw plenty of trade interest.

Sky Sports is live at 4 p.m. EDT today with a nice card featuring a double main event in the 130 and 135 pound divisions.
At super featherweight, titlist Ricky Burns (31-2, 8 KO) puts his WBO trinket on the line against Nicky Cook (30-2, 16 KO) in an intriguing matchup that could land Cook his second major title. Cook held this belt before briefly, beating Alex Arthur, but lost it in his next fight to Roman Martinez, the man Burns unseated.
At lightweight, John Murray (31-0, 18 KO) has given up his European title to chase a major belt on the world stage, but will first have to deal with returning countryman Kevin Mitchell (31-1, 23 KO). Mitchell, 26, hasn't fought since a TKO-3 loss in May 2010 to Michael Katsidis, and since then has had a bad run outside of the ring, drinking his money away, while currently he's due up on some fairly serious drug charges. He'll try to put that aside and get his career back on the right track.
Also in action today: Welterweight prospect Frankie Gavin (10-0, 8 KO) faces Curtis Woodhouse (15-2, 10 KO), and light heavyweight Tony Bellew (15-0, 10 KO) faces Ovill McKenzie (18-10, 7 KO) for the second time.

I just got a 2012 nv2500, it does not have the wiring for the brake controller as described in the manual (it says some models may be so equipped), however there is a male connector by the emergency brake cable underneath the dash. Can anyone tell me what this is for. I am hoping it is for the brake controller wiring. Thanks

That sounds like the OBD2 connector (On Board Diagnostics).

That sounds like the OBD2 connector (On Board Diagnostics).
My NV had a connector just below the emergency brake that was taped up. The dealer had, however, installed a trailer hitch and the wiring harness on my NV. So I don't know if this connector would have been there had the dealer not done what he did???? I did not see the van until it was ready for pick up at the dealership.
I have added a prodigy brake controller to my NV and all seems to be working well. Maybe you should ask your dealer about the plug you found. My diagnostics plug is attached to the bottom of the plastic just below the steering wheel/column.
I ordered a wiring harness from the supplier where I got the Prodigy controller so all was "plug and play". I think it was the same harness that all Nissan vehicles require. I can provide the info on the supplier and the id for the harness if you wish?
Posted 20 January 2012 - 03:48 PM
I checked for the open connector at the emergency brake cable and found it. I looked in my NV2012 service manual disk. It seems to be E44, electric brake pre-wire circuit. I found it in the PG.pdf section on page 47. The connector has multiple pins however there only seem to be three wires, red, green and black, they are fairly heavy gauge.

the connector near the park brake is the factory pre wire for a brake controller! It is a very simple installation if you have the factory 7 pin wiring harness. If your nv did not come with a hitch, I strongly recomend the OE harness that is available at any nissan dealer. nissan also offers a subharness that plugs in for the brake controller but any trailer supply has a direct connect harness for most newer brake controllers, its a very simple plug and play setup!

Easter is just around the corner and the kids are excited because the Easter Bunny is sure to bring surprises. But do you really want to go to the store and buy one of those plastic-wrapped Easter gifts filled with sugar-laden treats and neon-colored grass?
Is there any way to make Easter gifts a little greener and still enjoy all the treats? You bet there is! Below are four easy ways to get you started on greener, healthier, Easter gifts your kids will love!
Homemade Easter Dyes
Dump the toxic dyes in commercial Easter egg kits and save some money at the same time. Many common food items you already have make beautiful dyes. The colors are often more subtle than commercial dyes, but by leaving your eggs in the dye longer, the colors will intensify.
- For yellow, steep any of the following in hot water: ground turmeric, ground cumin, celery seed, green tea, orange or lemon peel, or carrot tops.
- Orange is a great color for eggs. Use yellow onion skins or paprika to get this color.
- Brown or tan can be achieved with coffee, black tea or black walnut shells
- For a delicious brown-gold, use dill seed. Chilli powder will give you a rich brown-orange hue.
- Pink is a favorite Easter color. Use fresh or canned beets, cranberry juice, raspberries or red grape juice.
- For red dye you'll need lots of red onion skins or pomegranate juice.
- Create yellow-green with green apple peels.
- Steep spinach leaves for a pretty green.
- For a lovely blue, use red cabbage leaves or purple grape juice
- Blueberries create a wonderful indigo color.
- For a delicate lavender, use red zinger tea or diluted purple grape juice
- For a deep purple, use red wine.
Reuse and Recycle with this Green Easter Basket
Don't spend money on a disposable Easter basket. Repurpose a plastic milk jug and make your own. Here's how:
- Thoroughly clean and dry the jug.
- Make a paper template that's 5 inches by 3 inches. Tape the template onto the surface of the milk jug opposite the handle. This will be your basket's opening. Then carefully cut out the plastic following the template. Line the cut area with felt or plumber's tape to protect against scratches.
- Decorate your jug using paint, cut-out paper, or anything you have on hand. You can even make the jug look like a rabbit face by using the opening as the mouth and cutting out paper ears and eyes. Use pipe cleaners for whiskers.
Eco-Friendly Basket Fill
Why settle for plastic grass when you can grow wheatgrass for your basket instead? If you don't have time to wait for the grass to grow (about a week), pop some popcorn from scratch and make your filling edible!
Fill your basket with healthy alternatives like pretzels or raisins. Or you can purchase organic candy from your favorite store.
Family Fun Decoration Ideas
Put the finishing touches on your holiday décor by making garlands of construction paper bunnies and chicks connected with twine. Or re-purpose other recyclable items like toilet paper tubes, paper plates and bags into creative projects. Your imagination is the only limit!
And if you have spring bulbs blooming, cut a few and place them in a vase to decorate your table.

From the White House pool report:
"There has been some really silly reporting about the president's remarks regarding Kevin Youkilis last night. It is highly commendable in my view as a Red Sox Fan that the president has always refused to pander on sports. He is a White Sox fan, he owns his fandom of the White Sox. He proved that again last night, And anyone who knows Boston, [knows] the Red Sox and anyone who was in that room last night knows that the preponderence of people shouting in response to what the President said about Kevin Youkilis were saying 'Yoooook and not Booo' for God's sake."
This has turned into a huge — repeat: huge — controversy. At a fundraiser Monday night, Obama "thanked" Red Sox fans for trading Youkilis to the White Sox, which are his favorite baseball team.
Mitt Romney's campaign then blasted Obama on Tuesday morning blasted Obama for choosing to "mock" Red Sox fans for "trading away one of its favorite players at a time when the team is struggling."

In some form of brilliance long since absent from ESPN (somebody must've had an out of world experience there to come up with this), the network created a great set of sports related movies that capture sports in a whole new light. I'm honestly one movie in but it seems that all the movies they've chosen/ created have great stories.
Right now, in World Pol, we're watching the 30 for 30 movie "Once Brothers" where the nationalistic split of Yugoslavia drove apart the once close relationship had between Vlade Divac and Drazen Petrovic. I love Vlade and how a simple act of grabbing a flag turned his world upside down. We're only an hour in but I love how it was done. The information and emotions from the split of them and Yugoslavia are astounding. Also, they're from the homeland of my nationality as well, so it hits a little close to home. Also have been meaning to see Catching Hell, that one just captures me because of how one fanbase can hate one normal fan so passionately, all over one simple mistake that most of us would have made ourselves.
So, what do you guys think of it? Do you guys like the 30 for 30? What ones have you seen that you would recommend? Anyone hope ESPN can build off of this and not run it into the ground like everything else?

One Direction do not agree with Beatles comparison
One Direction told ITV News that although being compared to The Beatles was "very flattering" it was "not necessarily something we agree with".
The hysteria surrounding Harry, Niall, Zayn, Louis and Liam was compared to Beatlemania in the 1960s by This Is Us director Morgan Spurlock.
However, the boys dismissed the claims, saying the Liverpudlian foursome were "in a league of their own" and "much cooler than us".

I can't stay away from Aurea Vista: A Shopping Mecca, the new two-story emporium at 3498 University Ave.
Owner Michelle Freeman, who renovated what was once a 1920′s hotel that ended life as a derelict shoe store, has brilliantly remodeled the building to showcase 30 artists, crafts persons and shops that flow into one another.
The 7th Heaven Deli already has moved out, but Freeman said she's working with other food sellers and vendors to fill the breach.
Here are a few shops to check out:
The Vanity Haus looks like the sort of artsy place you'd find in New York or LA, but with really affordable prices. Owner RJ Rodriguez, 29, of Riverside, has pulled together a collection of vintage clothing from "mild to wild," as he says, including some of his own fantastic creations.
Viveca Mays, 52, of Moreno Valley, is selling her original oils which she calls "dimensional" art. She incorporates actual items, such as earrings, scissors, beads and rhinestones, onto the canvases of her many African-inspired motifs, ranging from about $250 to $475.
Her space is next to Trizzio's, her daughter's accessories store, specializing in handbags and jewelry. It also sells Half Sox, the cool lounge socks the two patented, ranging from $3 to $8, depending on the embellishments.
Believe features the multi-media works of Riverside artist BerniE Edmonds, painter, sculptor, jewelry maker and designer. The beauty of God in his life inspired his Christian clothing line, which he also sells online. The Magic Johnson Foundation has commissioned Edmonds to design many of its awards, including those presented to Michelle Obama and Oprah Winfrey.
Alicia Hill, 32, of Moreno Valley, sells beautiful plus sizes, 14 to 30, at her shop, Alex Madison. Some of the clothes are vintage, but all accentuate a woman's curves. Her styles aren't simply enlarged size 2′s at jacked-up prices. Hill's range is from $25 to $165. "I want women to look and feel better about themselves and be proud," she said.

Exclusive: Paul Wall Gleams Over SXSW's Star Power, "Now You Have Kanye West & Jay-Z Performing There"
Tuesday, Mar 13, 2012 12:05PM
With the annual South By Southwest fesitivities in full effect, SOHH reached out to Texas-bred emcee, Paul Wall, for his take on his homestate getting its annual mainstream shine.
For Paul Wall, the man who placed grills back on the map, South By South West is a long time tradition. He reflects on the early days of SXSW and relishes on how much the annual gathering has flourished in recent years.
"It's amazing to see how far it's come," Paul Wall told SOHH. "I remember performing my first show out there with me and Chamillionaire. As a matter of fact, even my wife was there, she's in a singing group but she performed a show at South By Southwest. To see how far it's come, now you have Kanye West and Jay-Z performing there, so to see how far it's come is amazing. Especially in terms of hip-hop, and music in general, it's the biggest live music event. Worldwide its huge but for hip-hop to be a part of it with as big as its become, it's amazing. And it's great because it takes place right in our backyard, in Austin, Texas." (SOHH)
This week, renowned rap veteran Tech N9ne shared a different stance toward SXSW, varying greatly from Paul's more positive recollections.
"Sorry man. I probably don't say the things that are politically correct, but f*ck South by Southwest," Tech told SOHH. "I feel that way. I don't give a f*ck! You know why? Because my fans speak and it's about money. I'm just saying, they could say they won't ever have me perform again, I wouldn't give a f*ck. N*gga, we'd create our 'own' festival and fill the f*ckin' stands. Tech N9ne can say what the f*ck he wanna say, blackball me. We are our own machine. I'mma shutup, man. And I hope they get some feedback from this." (SOHH)
Last night (March 12), rap mogul Jay-Z ignited the festivities with his first-ever South By Southwest performance.
The show at the Austin City Limits Live venue marked the end of South By Southwest's interactive conference and an unofficial start to South By Southwest's music conference, which gets under way on Tuesday. The 80-minute show, to promote American Express' new partnership with Twitter and streamed live online, was packed with Hova's hits, including "99 Problems," ''Dirt Off Your Shoulder," ''Empire State of Mind" and "Glory," his ode to Blue Ivy Carter, the 2-month-old daughter he has with Beyonce.

Later this week, G-Unit's DJ Whoo Kid will get behind the turntables for rap star 50 Cent's SXSW set.
"Yeah, I'm going to be there with 50 performing the whole Get Rich or Die Tryin'. So I'm the deejay, I got hired again," Whoo Kid told SOHH when asked if he would be at the annual South By Southwest event this week. "I gotta deejay the whole, whole album. The whole Get Rick or Die Tryin' album. [How crazy is this?] It's f*cking nuts, man. It's gonna be amazing. I'm just amped over those records that I've always wanted him to perform, now he's gonna perform them. He's gonna do the whole thing so it's going to be a good look. I can't wait." (SOHH)

Former Texas Tech head basketball coach James Dickey will be reunited with his mentor, Eddie Sutton, as an assistant coach at Oklahoma State, officials announced on Wednesday.
"I've been blessed to have so many excellent assistant coaches in my career, but James is definitely at the top of this list," Sutton said. "Our players got to know him while he was broadcasting the games last year, and they're very excited about him becoming part of our basketball family."
Dickey, who was an assistant to Sutton from 1981 - 1989, coached at Texas Tech from 1991 until 2001, when he was fired and replaced by former Indiana coach Bob Knight. He amassed a 166 - 124 record during the 10 year span and took his team to the NCAA Tournament twice.
During the 1995 - 1996 season, his team went 30 - 2 and advanced to the Sweet 16 round of the big dance. Dickey called joining the OSU basketball staff a great honor.
"I'm tremendously excited about once again working for Coach Sutton," Dickey said. "He has been my mentor and the most positive coaching influence during my career. I look forward to working with the coaching staff, as well as the returning student-athletes and incoming players."
Dickey, who earned a bachelor's degree from Central Arkansas in 1976, got into coaching after joining the staff at Harding College in Searcy, Arkansas, during the 1976 - 1977 season. He became head coach at Harding in 1977 and became an assistant coach at Central Arkansas two seasons later.
Dickey joined Sutton at Arkansas before the 1981 - 1982 season and moved with him to Kentucky in 1986. Sutton left Kentucky in 1989, and Dickey was offered an assistant position at Texas Tech in 1990.

Researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Plant Breeding Research in Cologne have now discovered that the genetic material in seeds becomes more compact and the nuclei of the seed cells contract when the seeds begin to mature. The seeds probably protect their genetic material against dehydration in this way.
Milk is a more effective way of countering dehydration in active children than sports drinks or water, say researchers at McMaster.

If you are craving a certain food and really want to eat it, go out and eat it instead of bringing it home...once you had your fix you are done and can get back on track..If you bring it home you will keep eating eat! LEAVE IT OUTSIDE the home...for instance you want french fries, go and get a small portion, eat it and move on...don't deprive yourself...It is healthy to cheat once a week...
I try to have a cheat day once a month in order to eat what a I want.
I've had cheat day on the weekend, then I work extra hard at the gym! 246
We all have days when we don't follow our nutrition goals, when we eat so much we feel really, really bad later. Sometimes it's tempting to just keep on going like this because after all, we blew it once again right? Wrong. Just like you can get any stain out if you act quickly, you can turn yourself around by thinking about what you did and how you can prevent it next time.

Potentially deadly Legionella bacteria, which causes Legionnaires' disease, was found at three schools in the west suburb Batavia.
The disease was responsible for the deaths of three guests at the JW Marriott Chicago Hotel in the summer.
Inspectors found the Legionella bacteria during a first proactive water quality test, which will be conducted every six months.
The bacteria was detected in water fixtures at District 101's Alice Gustafson Elementary, Hoover Wood Elementary, and Batavia High School. Those water fixtures include some shower heads in the girls varsity locker rooms at the high school, and bathroom faucets at the elementary schools.
No children have gotten sick, although the areas where the bacteria were found are sealed off.
Schools are stressing parents do not need to panic and not because the levels of the bacteria are reportedly very low. They have closed down the affected areas for clean-up.
Very few people actually get legionnaire's disease when they are even exposed to the bacteria. It's a very severe phenomenon of pneumonia contacted when one inhales a water vapor mist that is contaminated.
Schools will be open Friday, as the district posted on its website.

The increased use of fracking technology over the past few years, and the fact that individual wells can generate up to 5 million gallons of produced water, has resulted in a high level of interest by the oil and gas industry, and the general public on the treatment and disposal of produced water.
PetroSense, the leader in Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) monitoring systems announced today the introduction of the CMS- 1500MV produced water monitoring system, designed specifically for monitoring and verifying raw and processed produced water.
The CMS-1500MV is an Internet-based environmental monitoring communication system that enables users to utilize a single network to monitor a wide range of water quality sensors and deliver real time data over the Internet to any security enabled computer. A single CMS-1500MV can accommodate over 50 individual sensors. The CMS-1500MV also provides onsite email and text message alarms.
With plug and play functionality, the CMS-1500MV enables users to configure the unique system to their specific requirements. This includes a full range of water quality sensors including: the PetroSense continuous TPH sensor (DHP-485), as well as sensors for salinity, turbidity, pH and level monitoring.
In addition to water quality sensors, the CMS-1500MV will also accommodate a full range of air quality and security monitoring systems, and display the results on a single integrated Internet site.
For additional information on the CMS-1500MV monitoring system or the revolutionary PetroSense Portable TPH monitor (the PHA+), please contact us at: email@example.com or call (214) 483-1003.

The company director of Jet Car Sales in Leytonstone has been fined £12,000 following an investigation by Waltham Forest's trading standards team
Updated 11:29am Saturday 26th April 2014 in News By Natalie Glanvill, Reporter - Waltham Forest
A second-hand car dealer has been fined £12,000 after it was discovered he ripped off customers through the mis-selling of high-end cars.
Company Director Quissanga Baptista Alberto of Jet Car Sales in High Road, Leytonstone, disappeared in December 2012 after Waltham Forest trading standards team revealed he was under investigation.
In his absence, he was found guilty of four separate offences under the 2008 Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations at Thames Magistrates' Court on April 4.
The court agreed two fines of £4,000 and two of £2,000 for the four offences. Alberto, formerly of Lytchat Way, in Enfield, is also ordered to pay a victim surcharge of £120 and costs of £3, 075.
The Leytonstone firm was brought to the attention of the trading standards team following a series of complaints.
A customer bought a Mercedes Benz ML270 in April 2012 under the impression it had a three-month warranty, but upon driving the vehicle home the buyer smelt diesel leaking from the vehicle so he took it to a garage.
A number of defects were discovered and repaired, but when the warranty company was contacted the owner was advised that there was no warranty registered in respect of the vehicle.
As a result the purchaser was unable to recover the repair costs of around £1,000.
The warranty team had in fact ceased its business relationship with Jet Car Sales in March 2012.
A buyer was also put out of pocket when he purchased a Toyota Avensis sold as in 'good condition' in July 2012, but after conducting a HPI check, he realised the mileage was not accurate and the vehicle had more than two owners.
A week after purchasing the car it failed to start and despite help from the AA, the vehicle could still not be made to run and he never received a refund.
Mr Alberto quickly disappeared after being called in for an interview by the trading standards team in December 2012.
In total, he owes £15,000 in unpaid fines and costs.

Well, that worked well. They must have been surprised.
next time, could they possibly consider taking the tape recorder to the suspect - or interviewing him under arrest?
The interesting thing is, he had no need to flee, since such a call is not mandatory, though council officials like to pretend that they are if they think you've been dropping litter.

Christopher Schwarzenegger Hospitalized After Surfing Accident
Christopher Schwarzenegger, Arnold Schwarzenegger's son, has been hospitalized after falling off a boogie board last weekend, the New York Daily News reports.
Schwarzenegger, 13, suffered a collapsed lung and some broken bones.
Arnold and Maria Shriver, Christopher's mother, have reunited with one another in the hospital where their son is being treated. They released a joint statement on Friday.
"While it has been a very scary week, Christopher is surrounded by his family and friends," the statement read, according to the New York Daily News. "He is a brave boy and is expected to make a full recovery. On behalf of our entire family, we want to sincerely thank the paramedics and lifeguards who responded so swiftly as well as the doctors, nurses, emergency room and hospital staff who have cared for our son. They have been extraordinary to him and to us."
Katherine Schwarzenegger, 21, Christopher's older sister, posted on Twitter, "Thank you guys for ur concern and prayers for my baby brother! He's a tough little guy and getting better! Please keep praying for him! Xo."
The news of the accident came a day after Arnold filed new divorce paperwork saying he did not want a judge to award spousal support to Shriver, who plans to seek it.

NYC Race for the Cure 2007- Team PRTM by TeamPRTM - almost 7 years ago
"This photo was taken with the majority of our team runners for the Susan B. Komen Race for the Cure in NYC this past Sunday (September 9th). Our public service, Make an Impact-NY, decided to participate in this event this year for the first time (our other offices around the nation are also participating in Race for the Cure and getting tshirts as well). It was a great success! Everyone had a wonderful time, and so far we have raised close to $2000 through online and off line individual pledges (one of which was customink). This was my first time ordering tshirts through CustomInk and it was a wonderful experience. The quality of the tshirts was great and they turned out to bejust what we were looking for. The team loved the tshirts, we even got comments at the Race, and the announcers congratulating all the runners completing the Race kept calling out our team because of the tshirts. I was particularly impressed and touched by the act of kindness by CustomInk through Lori Mayfield who pledged our team in support of customers passionate about a cause. It's rare these days to get good customer service, but this experience went above and beyond that definition. Thank you for helping make this a memorable event for me and the PRTM team!"

BOSTON (KNOE 8 News/AP) - Researchers say high levels of the chemical BPA may raise the risk of miscarriage for some women.
BPA is found in many plastics and canned food linings, and can have very weak, hormone-like effects.
Experts say the new research doesn't show a link between BPA and miscarriages, but suggests that the most at risk could be women prone to miscarriages and those having trouble getting pregnant.

Launched last December 12, the opening was celebrated with live circus acts and acoustic bands; which was surely fitting for its theme. I was luckily one of the special guests for the night, and it was a joy to be able to see yet another one of Mercato's ideas!
Where to Eat? | Top 10 Chiang Mai Street Food Dishes

Thai food is famous for its spiciness, but in northern Thailand, especially in the district of Chiang Mai, influences from Burma and China are distinct. This results to milder curries and a more pronounced use of other ingredients such as ginger and turmeric. This may not sound appealing to some, but I tell you: it's sinfully goooooood.
Travelling to this 'Rose of the North' last October, surely I wouldn't pass on the chance of going on a food trip. Especially since Chiang Mai (and Thailand in general) is praised for its rich and flavorful dishes, especially those that you find on the streets and public markets.
Now, there are a lot of night bazaars and market avenues in Chiang Mai and it could get really dizzying; but you can go to this post to see a list of popular places for food and shopping in this city.
After you sort that out, continue down to this list to see the top 10 street food dishes that you should absolutely try and not miss out:
Healthy Eating | Part 4 of 7: Burger Toppings

Who doesn't like burgers? (I used to. LOL. Those were the days...) But yeah, I bet everyone loves it! And though it is 'fulfilling', it still helps to limit ourselves from consuming so much of these especially with how it's often prepared: fatty and greasy.
It would help greatly if you cook your own burger at home because for instance you can substitute lettuce leaves or whole-wheat bread for the white bread buns, control the oil used, etc. etc.; but with today's times, most likely you'll be buying it from the a store.
So if you are, do yourselves a favor and ask the restaurant (yes, even that fast food chain please) to modify it with the kind of toppings and spreads that will better keep your well-being in tip-top shape.

I may be on a Paleo diet, but I still love sweets! We try to keep it in moderation, so I guess you can call us not so Paleo-perfect after all. But hey, I guess we deserve our cheat days once in a while; but, it's not like Paleo is very restricting, we still get to enjoy incredible food every single day! Anyways... moving on.
Last week, I was thinking of another kitchen adventure that I can do (oh I am so happy that we have an oven!) So I looked into our 'supplies' and I realized that I have this huge Nutella Jar in the fridge that my mom gave to me; she didn't know that I was trying to cut down on sweet stuff. Clearly, I don't want to put that to waste and I knew instantly that I can use it for my baking. One main ingredient down, what else to go? And that's when our overripe bananas jumped out to me, as well as a bag of marshmallows, and that's when I thought... "Why not I try to experiment with all these three?" BAM! Nutella Banana S'mores Cookies Recipe was born!
I was very anxious at first as to how it will turn out, but thankfully enough, it came out great. Here's the recipe, folks!
Mexican Beef Stew Recipe

No offense to all the people who have served me 'kaldereta' before, but I really hate it when the meat is really tough. Being a lazy person like myself, it was always a chore to chew through every single bit that I get to throw into my mouth. The scenario almost always goes like this: "Whew, I think I'm done here! ...Oh, wait. No. Ugh. Oh goodness, this is hard meat... Aaaah... My jaw... Aaah, bloody hell, when will this end?"
So it's always a joy whenever I get to eat some sort of oven-braised stew that is fork tender! Beccause that, my foodie friends, is legit heavenly food! That's why for last night's dinner, I decided to make Mexican Beef Stew (or yes, you can call it kaldereta if you want to. -wink-) I also decided to bring along an old friend of mine for my cooking because this baby would definitely give the sauce a good kick! What else but Maggi Magic Sarap!

It looks like our Gators are going back to the Dance barring a major catastrophe. With the 75-62 blowout against Tennessee Billy Donovan also notched another 20 win season under his belt for the 12th season in a row, the longest streak in the SEC.
Tennessee came in ranked #17 with a six game winning streak against the Gators. They really needed this win because it keeps them alive for second place in the East. Possibly giving them a first round bye in the SEC tourney, and also giving them that swagger they have lacked since the Champs ran the court.
"More importantly, Florida probably secured a spot in the NCAA field for the first time in three years," according to ESPN.
After the back to back champs all left to further their careers Billy D signed a #1 recruiting class and everything seemed to be going in the right direction. Then for the first time since Donovan became the coach at Florida, they missed the NCAA Tournament 2 years in a row. Well, were back! And some pessimist might complain that this team has no shot to go deep into the dance this year, but I honestly don't care. Not making it into the dance three years in a row is like being a 40 year old virgin; at least we can say we got in, even if it wasn't for long. And I never expected the 2000 team to make it to the Final either, and this team has the talent to be great as well.
Chandler Parsons, Vernon Macklin, Alex Tyus are all juniors. Actually the only senior on the entire team is Dan Werner. I know we will all dearly miss oh Danny boy, but I am pretty hope full for this team's future. Even if you're not a huge basketball fan, and football is your baby, look at it like this… Gators exposure is Gator exposure, no matter the sport.
