This is a special post from Katherine Rucker, a MALTS student here at the University of Rochester who is doing an independent study with me on Latin American literature. As you'll see below, she's planning on doing sample translations—and reader's reports—from a bunch of underrepresented Spanish language literatures. Problem is, she's having a tough time finding interesting, contemporary, untranslated books from some of these places.
Once I realized that I'd never really translated anything by an author who wasn't from Spain or Argentina, I decided to do a sort of choose your own adventure Spanish class this semester. It's basically an independent study where I'll only read books from Spanish-speaking countries that are less represented in translation. But first I'll have to choose some books. Beyond the usual challenge of finding books that are both a) good and b) have translation rights available, I found that it's actually damn near impossible to find any kind of book from countries like Nicaragua. Or Costa Rica. Much less Panama.
Granted, part of this might have to do with the actual number of books coming out of those countries. (At one point in my Internet-crawling I realized that what I was looking at wasn't a "Best Books of 2013" list, but actually a list of "All the Books Published in This Country Last Year".) The more I looked, the more I became convinced that this has a lot to do with the framework of publishing throughout most of Latin America–namely the fact that most of the publishers are incredibly out-of-touch with the modern methods of reaching a wider audience . . . by which I mean the Internet.
As an example, I found a book I wanted to read from Uruguay. It was on one of the only publisher's websites I stumbled on that wasn't hard to look at and actually seemed functional. They even had a decent catalog. Great. I figured I could just order the book online—but every search I did brought me back to the same publisher's website . . . who wanted me to either send them a message or give them a phone call saying which books I wanted and then come pick them up from their office. Shipping was extra, and they only shipped within Uruguay.
I guess what I might be experiencing here is something that other translators have confronted before: even if I'm actively seeking out books from a particular countries, I'm going to have a hard time finding them. And if I'm not actively looking for them, I'm never, ever going to find them—and books that are invisible to translators stay invisible to everyone else, too.
So unless someone wants to fly me to Uruguay for Spring Break, I'll keep sorting through bad publishing websites, trying to find something promising. But since I know you all wouldn't be reading Three Percent if you didn't care about promoting translation, I'll go ahead and say that I'd love to hear from you. If you're the biggest fan of Bolivia's best-kept secret, if you're a translator or publisher with a giant library, or even if you just happen to be a bit better at googling than I am, I'd love it if you helped me find some books from these under-translated countries. I'm eager to see what we'll find.

National Signing Day Winners and Losers: Big 12
Posted by Tom Fornelli
Breaking down who won and who lost in the Big 12 on National Signing Day
WINNER: Mack Brown
Nothing new for Mack Brown and the Texas Longhorns on signing day this year, as the Longhorns put together a class of 28 players. Players that were good enough to earn the Longhorns the second spot in our CBS Sports National Signing Day Top 25. The Longhorns already had a strong class coming into the Wednesday, but flipping players like Torshiro Davis, Bryce Cottrell, and Daje Johnson in the last few days helped put it over the top.
LOSER: Mack Brown
How can you win and lose at the same time? Well, it's not that hard if you're Mack Brown. After all, Brown has long been considered one of the best coaches on the recruiting trail since taking over at Texas. However, the great classes that he's signed haven't done much to help the Longhorns when it comes to picking up victories the last few years. Now with another top class, the expectations that Texas compete for the Big 12 title will only grow that much larger, and considering that Connor Brewer is the only "top" quarterback in his latest class, Brown will really need the rest of his newest class to start contributing right away. If they don't we can't be sure how many more signing days Brown will have, contract extension or not.
WINNER: Boomer Sooner
While Oklahoma's class may not be as highly regarded as Texas, it's still good enough to finish at #8 in the CBS Sports National Signing Day Top 25. It has its share of studs in wide receivers Trey Metoyer and Durron Neal, along with lineman Will Latu and quarterback Trevor Knight, but more than anything Bob Stoops and his staff focused on the areas of need in Norman. Of the 25 players in Oklahoma's class, 12 are either receivers, tight ends or defensive lineman. If the Sooners had been able to add another running back or two -- and this isn't a knock on Alex Ross, David Smith, or Damien Williams -- this class would have been ranked even higher.
LOSER: Oklahoma State
It doesn't seem like the Cowboys and Mike Gundy were truly able to capitalize on their first Big 12 title and win in the Fiesta Bowl. While their 2012 class certainly isn't terrible -- I consider it pretty solid to be honest -- it's not exactly the type of class that will wow anybody either. Still, Gundy and company focused on need, and while a class full of three-star recruits isn't going to knock anybody off their feet, it's those same types of recruiting classes that Oklahoma State rode to the Fiesta Bowl last season. So while I have the Cowboys marked a as "loser" here, it's in the context of the National Signing Day. Besides, if four-star quarterback Wes Lunt and receiver C.J. Curry go on to become the next Brandon Weeden and Justin Blackmon, well, then this class will be magnificent won't it?
WINNER: Tommy Tuberville
Texas Tech went out and, quietly, pulled in one of the better classes in the Big 12. In fact, depending on which recruiting service you fancy, the Red Raiders trailed only Texas and Oklahoma in overall quality this season. While four-star receivers Reginald Davis and Dominique Wheeler are the flashier commits, I feel the best sign for Tech's future is the fact that at least 15 of its 26 commits will play on the defensive side of the ball. We already know Texas Tech can light up a scoreboard, but until it starts playing better on defense, it won't be able to win consistently. Recruiting classes like this one will go a long way to making that happen.
LOSER: Iowa State
Again, like I said in the Oklahoma State entry, don't take this "loser" personally. The fact is that Iowa State just isn't the type of program that is going to pull in a lot of 5- and 4-star recruits. Instead Paul Rhoads pulled in a class of 21 players comprised mostly of 3-star players. So while this class may not have a lot of "sex appeal" it could help Iowa State continue to make bowl appearances under Rhoads, and that's all you can ask of Iowa State right now.
WINNER: Fax machine distributors of the United States

Big 12 Signing Day: Winners and Losers
Posted by Adam Jacobi
Taking stock of National Signing Day in the Big 12.
Texas Tech: While the Red Raiders ended up outside the MaxPreps Top 25 when Signing Day wound down, there's no denying that Tommy Tuberville brought in an impressive class of signees. Branden Jackson should eventually be an asset to a middling front four once he fills out his frame, and for the meantime Tuberville brought in two well-regarded JUCO defensive linemen. It'll be interesting to see what Tech does with the glut of high-profile tailbacks that signed; DeAndre Washington, Bradley Marquez, and Kenny Williams all look talented enough to start, but Washington and/or Marquez might be better suited to some sort of slotback role instead. It's a nice problem to have at a school that doesn't typically bring in strong recruiting classes.
Texas A&M: The Aggies don't have the recruiting chops of rivals Texas, but A&M did manage to snag Brandon Alexander from the Longhorns' grasp in a Signing Day showdown, which helps bridge the talent gap between the two programs just that little bit. The Aggies were also odd beneficiaries of forgery, as CB Floyd Raven's LOI to Ole Miss was found to be written by Raven's mother (who clearly had her own very strong ideas about what was best for her son); Raven is now officially an Aggie. No word on how awkward Mother's Day will be at the Raven household.
Texas: While Oklahoma's small signing class left it out of Tom Lemming's Top 25, Texas cruised to yet another Top 10 spot, thanks to the signing of stud tailback Malcolm Brown and freak athlete Steve Edmond (who can play wide receiver, linebacker, or pretty much any position that accommodates those between 200 and 290 pounds). Look out for Cedric Reed, a prototypical blue chip DE who could dominate soon. At 60, Mack Brown's not going to be in Austin forever, but if these types of classes keep up, he is going to leave a glut of talent for whoever takes over for him.
Kansas State: Head coach Bill Snyder lived up to his reputation by bringing in eight JUCO players to this recruiting class (EIGHT!), and few of them are highly regarded. The high school recruits aren't much better, either; for every Ian Seau (Junior's nephew) with a list of decent offers, there are several high school signees with nearly barren offer sheets. The Wildcats were surprisingly decent in 2010, even reaching the Pinstripe Bowl, but their recruiting shows no signs of momentum. This is the type of class one expects from a 3-9 team.
Baylor: Baylor's fighting an uphill battle in terms of tradition and resources to begin with, so it doesn't help to see Oklahoma poach longtime commit Nila Kasitati from Baylor for barely any better reason than "because Bob Stoops felt like it." The Bears did snipe talented tailback Jermichael Selders from West Virginia today, so it's not as if Art Briles was completely passive, but this still looks like a level of talent that must depend on a game-changer at quarterback like Robert Griffin III if Baylor's going to make any noise in the conference. Baylor needs wideout Jonathan Lee to contribute in a hurry.
Iowa State: The highlight of Iowa State's day, and probably its entire recruiting class, is landing wideout Quenton Bundrage over Cincinnati, Louisville, and Marshall today. ISU's class may end up good, but it probably won't, considering how few recruits ISU had to beat a BCS team other than Minnesota for. Paul Rhoads is a good coach with a bright future in college football, but he didn't strike gold today.

YA: S. S. Taylor
Monday, October 13, 6:30 p.m.
The Expeditioners and King Triton's Lair
We are happy to welcome back S. S. Taylor with the second volume in her fabulous Expeditioners series. If you love steampunk, nifty gadgets, maps, and adventure then The Expeditioners is for you.
Kit, Zander, and M. K. West are settling into their new lives as students at the Academy for the Exploratory Sciences when Kit finds another mysterious map left for him by their father, the brilliant, famous — and presumed dead — explorer Alexander West. Why did Alexander leave the maps behind, and why are government agents so determined to seize them? What is really going on in a mysterious and unknown stretch of the Caribbean, famous for its violent storms and shipwrecks? And what is the huge contraption M. K. is building in her workshop? As two world powers come to the brink of war, Kit must find a deadly hidden island and unlock its secrets, hoping he has the courage to follow the trail of maps, wherever it may lead.
"Full of kid power......adventure served with heaping helpings of cleverness" - Kirkus Reviews
"...At its core, this is a novel of resilience, with the war serving as both a life-changing event and no more than the background noise of an impoverished existence. Full of intriguing characters and lots of surprises…readers of literary fiction and 20th-century historical, as well as fans of wacky humor, will find it an excellent choice." —*STARRED REVIEW* Library Journal
S. S. Taylor has been fascinated by maps ever since the age of 10, when she discovered an error on a map of her neighborhood and wondered if it was really a mistake. She has a strong interest in books of all kinds, expeditions, old libraries, mysterious situations, long-hidden secrets, missing explorers, and traveling to known and unknown places.

Price Ranges
Average price for our piercings is $45, jewelry is included. Piercings are buy one get one 50% off. *Same person same sitting. *Few exclusions apply. * all piercings include a free jewelry change with proof of purchase.
Materials Used
The majority of piercings are performed with internally threaded Titanium 6AI-4V-ELI ASTM-F136. We also use niobium and 14kt gold. Note, Titanium and niobium items can be anodized in many different colors for free. We just need few extra minutes to anodize and then sterilize in or statim autoclave.
What is Anodizing?
Anodizing is a process where a coating is built up on the surface of certain metals (titanium, niobium, tantalum, aluminum, magnesium and zinc) by heating, with chemicals, or by electricity. In the case of titanium, the coating that is built up is a layer of titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide, which is also known as titanium oxide, occurs naturally on the surface of titanium. Anodizing does not involve any dyes. The color on the surface is apparent because light reflects through the created oxide layer to create a color. Without the presence of light that color wouldn't be there. Light reflects off of the surface of titanium. When a piece is high polished and not anodized, it reflects its mirror finish. When a piece is anodized, the light has to reflect [refract] off of the surface through the added oxide layer.
What Are the Benefits of an Anodized Surface?
- Pretty colors
- A more smooth, durable, and biocompatible surface
- Removal of microscopic debris embedded in the surface
- Passivation according to the ASTM F86 Standard Practice for Surface Preparation and Marking of Metallic Surgical Implants
- Anodizing gets the matter off the surface and cleans down to one millionth of an inch, over a thousand times more cleaner than with an ultrasonic.
Nose Piercing
The history of nose piercing dates back to ancient times and is still a common tradition among nomadic tribes in Africa and the Middle East. A husband will give his wife a nose ring when they marry, and the size of the ring represents the wealth of the family.
In India, a stud (Phul) or a ring (Nath) is usually worn in the left nostril, as that area of the body is associated with female reproductive organs in Indian medicine. An Indian woman's nose piercing is sometimes joined to her ear by a chain.
Nose piercing first appeared in the U.S. on the hippies who had traveled to India in the Late 1960s. The Punk movement, in the 1970s, used piercing as a symbol of rebellion against conservative values. Today, nose piercing is gradually becoming more socially acceptable.
Tongue Piercing
The ancient Aztecs performed rituals to please their gods including piecing the tongue to draw blood. This would create an altered state of consciousness so that the priest or shaman could communicate with the gods. Currently, tongue piercing is one of the most popular piercings that people have because it is both provocative and easy to keep secret.
Ear Piercing
The oldest mummified body ever found was over 5,000 years old and had pierced ears with holes enlarged to 7-11mm diameter.
Many primitive tribes believed that demons could enter their bodies through their ears. They would protect themselves by piercing their ears because demons and spirits were supposed to be repelled by metal. Today in the U.S. it is common for parents to pierce their little girls' earlobes. But ear piercing isn't just for girls; it's an almost universal practice for men and women alike.
Labret/Lip Piercing
Piercing lips so objects can be inserted in them is widely practiced throughout the world, especially in tribal cultures. There are two tribes that pierce the lips with a ring; all other lip piercing is done with labrets, which can be made from a pin of wood, ivory, metal, or even quartz crystals.
The labret piercing is often stretched to extremely large proportions and, over time, large wooden or clay plates are inserted in place of labret pins.
Labret piercing was commonly reserved for male members of the higher castes, who wore beautiful labrets fashioned from gold, stone, jade, ivory, obsidian, shell and wood.
In some tribes, women wear a plate in the upper lip in order to appear more beautiful or as a sign of possession of her husband. The man who is about to marry often is the one who transfixes the lips of the young girl who will become his wife. Today, there are many location options for lip piercing, whether using hoops or labrets.
Septum Piercing
Septum piercing was popular among warrior cultures because it can be stretched so that a large tusk could be inserted, which makes the warrior look really fierce. Bone plugs, either pig legs or the tibia bones of enemies slain in battle, were also inserted in the septum.
Other tribesmen would insert a large pendant into their septum, some so large that it prevented the wearer from being able to eat without manually lifting the jewelry during meals.
Australian aboriginals pierced the septum with the goal of flattening the nose. They passed a long stick or bone through the piercing to achieve the desired effect because they believed a flat nose to be the most desirable-looking.
Today, the septum is a great piercing option because a wide variety of jewelry can be worn in it, whether stretched out or hidden.

You don't have to go fast, you just have to go!!
"Many things are simply not going to happen with just one, or three, or even a dozen attempts. Yet anything becomes possible with enough persistence.
Keep going, and allow your efforts to build upon one another. Keep going, and transform the disappointments into achievements.
You have what it takes to keep going, because all it ever takes is just one more step forward.
Keep going, and work your way steadily to the richest rewards you can imagine."

**** AT GOAL WEIGHT!!! 118 - July 26, 2011 Maintenance Begins...
Successful challenge! I went out to graduation looking and feeling my best, under 125lbs and ready for anything! I DID IT * I DID IT * YES!!
I have been overweight most of my life, except for several forays into fad diet land. Exercise was never part of the equation, nor was the notion of a truly healthy "lifestyle" until I joined Sparkpeople in 2008. I came to know and love the food tracker and really started to understand what makes up a good, balanced diet. I also joined in with regular exercise, though the food part seems to come a little easier for me when I am on a roll.
Then I hurt my knee and tests showed an unrelated but scary bone disease that had my orthopedist saying it's time for non-impact exercising only. Great, just when I was getting my groove on!
I got myself down from 173-171 to within 5 pounds of 133, my original goal that first year here, and let the diagnosis and other things totally derail me for far too long!!! With some retooling I am figuring out the magic Sparky formula to conquer the weight and fitness for GOOD!! I'm back to Sparky basics. Accountability is the order of the day - EVERY day! Open trackers that are getting populated with healthy choices and good, consistent exrcise. I am feeling SPARKY! WOO-HOO!! Who's with me? Here's to my Sparky accountability buddies and SparkPeople!
It's time to stay serious about my fitness and clean eating habits. Consistency, no matter what!
We're all in this together, we're all in this together.

My Program:
- Drink 10 glasses of water a day!

Not giving up on harassing you buddy
What have you been up to? We need an update on you! One of my sons just flew out to Boston today to meet up with one of his roommates he just graduated with. They are hoping to go to a baseball game this weekend and drive to New York City, besides seeing the sights in Boston, he's never been out that way! Sounds like the weather is going to be nice. Any plans for Memorial Day?

How are you Melly?? I need a Melly update! What have you been up to so far this Spring?
Is it getting nicer by you, things starting to bloom in your yard? My tulips are almost ready to bloom, as long as the deer don't get them.
I have been on the go a lot this past month, and its continuing! Ben graduates in 3 weeks, and he and Sam will be coming home for the summer. Ben will start law school in the fall in Chicago, so at least he will be close by. Jacob will be starting his senior year in the fall...days are passing quickly and these kids are growing up! Ok, well off to get on the elliptical and get this day going. Kind of a rainy one here today, but tomorrow will be 75!!!
Yay, summer is on its way! Hope you are doing well. Either way, I'd love to hear from you

Must-Read: The curious thing about Robert Farley's piece is that he says: "today, the wiser among us recognize that 'dual containment' was, in large part, [more] a solution" rather than a problem. Why the "today"? From 1991-2003, in every sophisticated strategic discussion of the Middle East I participated in, the smart people always made the point that dual containment and the continued maintenance of the Saddam Hussein régime was bad for the people of Iraq but probably good for the people of the Middle East as a whole--and precisely for dual containment reasons.
And, of course, Cheney and Junior Bush's attack on Iraq turned out to be bad for the people of Iraq as well.

Reform of the Belgian State Council: some remarkable changes
New legislation reforming the Belgian State Council (Conseil d'Etat/Raad van State), the supreme administrative court of Belgium, was published on 3 February 2014. The new legislation aims to shorten the length of proceedings before the State Council and to increase its flexibility.
Some changes will only affect proceedings commenced on or after 1 March 2014, while others have immediate effect and affect proceedings that are currently ongoing. In this contribution, Allen and Overy provides a short overview of some of the most important reforms.
Action for annulment — the State Council's arsenal to sanction a breach — is currently limited to suspension or annulment. For proceedings commenced on or after 1 March 2014, the State Council will have more options, including the possibility of…

A Beautiful 1958 Proof SovereignElizabeth II gold Proof Sovereign 1958, S-4125, KM908, WR-450 (R4), reeded edge Proof of Record, PR64 PCGS, gleaming brilliance with only slight haziness, which is normal, the deeply mirrored fields still intense. Wilson & Rasmussen estimate that 11 to 20 examples exist. The cataloguer has seen perhaps ten pieces in some 35 years. Not often mentioned in descriptions of this coin are the elongated, tiny capital letters "MG" centered in low relief on the truncation of the queen's portrait, which was designed in 1953 by Mary Gillick. The obverse legend used for the 1953 coinage was slightly modified in 1954. The last 2nd Issue sovereign was struck in 1968. The 1953 proof sovereign was never issued to the public, and only 1 or 2 exist in private collections. Proofs of Record were struck in 1957, 1958, 1959 and 1963. The first three are of about equal rarity. The 1963 proof sovereign is extremely rare. However, the opportunity to purchase any proof of this type is also a rare occurrence, and this specimen ranks high among the known examples.

SAF to blame.
Here's the thing as much as we hate to admit it...We have a huge defensive crisis. I am not using that as an excuse for us getting trashed like that but it's true. Hogson said before the United had a huge weakness at the back and he would exploit it. He did exactly that.
Playing 3 at the back was not a good decision. If he wanted to do that he should have kept Evra as the back three instead it was Fletcher, Carrick and Da Laet at the back. It's like playing Gibbs Fabregas and Diably as a back three for Arsenal. It would never work. Even with 3 natural defenders at the back might leave you exposed on many occasions.
Fergie's 3-5-2 was a horrible decision. Now we have a DEFENSIVE CRISIS. You can't blame Fergie for that. Sh*t happens. Last season we had a similar situation but we had defensive cover in Brown, Evans and O'Shea. We don't even have that at the moment. We can only hope that our defenders recover sooner or that Fergie takes a gamble on the reserves and plays some natural defenders. The thing is our next game is against Hull. I don't think he'd make much changes if we don't get Vidic back. He might see it as a easy 3 points. Fergie would be wrong to think that.
Calling for him to get the sack for a defensive crisis is plain stupid. Either you guys suck it up and get behind Fergie or support another club cause he's gonna be sticking around for as long as he thinks he should.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Looking for something that matters.
How would your closest friends describe you? -Probably as the quieter more sane of the group. Who or what makes you smile? -The little things and nice gestures. What accomplishments are you most proud of? -I've made it this far. What are you grateful for? -Making it this far. What type of person are you hoping to attract? -Hopefully an intelligent human being who possesses the ability to hold a decent conversation while simultaneously being able to make me laugh or smile. How would you describe your social life? -Hahahahaha. Oh wait... You were being serious? Um.. I sort of work a lot so my social circle is mainly people that I've met through my job along with my besty and two of her friends so it's a pretty motley crew. What types of things make you laugh out loud? -Better left secret. Next question. What are you looking for in a relationship? -Companionship? A real relationship I suppose. I would definitely like someone who would spend time with me when I'm not working, whether we sit back and watch movies, or go to the pub for a drink and a casual meal. What are the things in life you're most passionate about? -My dog and spending time with those who matter. Also taking time to relax and unwind. Relaxing time is best spent with someone that makes you happy though. I think everyone should have that option.

South China Sea tensions rise after collision

South China Sea tensions rise after collision
Don't think China will care much into the Vietnamese concerns. This also comes after the Philippine government seized a Chinese fishing boat recently.
They won't. The behaviour of the Chinese government with regards to foreign policy matters has been getting progressively worse as their confidence on the world stage gets stronger. China has territorial issues with most of its neighbours. They're limited in what they can do to a powerful country like Japan (with a strong defence treaty with the US), but the same cannot be said for Vietnam. Luckily for Vietnam, the US will be boosting its military presence in the area.
China has been known for getting increasingly more aggressive in recent years, and the reason is because they have one of the fastest growing economies in the world, as well as the largest military, and with these facts, China seems to be trying it's hardest to boast it's powerful position in the world. Very few countries are allied with China, mainly because it's aggressive territorial claims have annoyed it's neighbors, including Vietnam, the Philippines, Japan, South Korea, and especially Taiwan.

China has been like that throughout history though. They really don't have much of a foreign policy to their neighbours compared to trading partners. I mean China has been in 'conflict' with Japan, Korea and surrounding areas pretty much for the most of the 20th century, so it is not a surprise that they took this approach yet again. However the Chinese Government doesn't have any sort of transparency so we could only assume.
True, but it's been trying to project an image of a peaceful, non-threatening nation since WW2. This has given it economic advantages in the form of better economic cooperation. I guess they just no longer need to put on a show. :P
Here's a map that illustrates all (or most) what there's to say about this absurdity:
The blue line is based on international maritime law, more or less stating that each nation has an "exclusive economic zone" spanning as far as 200 miles from their borders.
Very interesting to note.

Nine days before Thanksgiving, a Fortune 100 company called an ACE Project Manager at home to see if we could supply engineers to assist with a loop checkout following a Katrina rebuild. They needed five, but were concerned that ACE could only supply one or two. Less than 36 hours later, ACE delivered five experienced process control engineers on site, working straight through the weekend to get the job done.
With offices in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Texas, Maryland, and Delaware, we have the support where you need it, when you need it.
ACE's Tim Cole spoke at the May 2015 meeting of the WISA. The presentation focused on the benefits of applying the Main Automation Contractor (MAC) approach to small projects.
In May, ACE's Gulf Coast office enjoyed a break from the rain with a lunchtime BBQ. Our thanks to all those who gave of their time and grilling expertise to make a delicious lunch!
ACE offices will be closed on Friday, July 3rd in observance of Independence Day. Wishing you a safe and enjoyable holiday!

What a grumpy country this is right now.
Ordinarily this is North America's best month – Congress is always out of session and millions are at lakeside cabins, in mountain hideaways or at seaside retreats – but this August Americans are cranky. Really cranky.
Sure, there have been downer Augusts before, chief among them 1914 and 1939 and, now that you mention it, the Augusts of 1974 (the resignation of Richard Nixon) and 1983 (the downing of Korean Air Flight 007 near Sakhalin island) were no days at the beach.

IBV, Ltd. protests the Department of the Air Force's decision to issue request for proposals (RFP) No. FA4416-08-R-0003, for collection and removal of solid waste, as a total small business set-aside. IBV, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business concern (SDVOSBC), asserts that the agency should have set aside the procurement for SDVOSBCs or awarded the firm a contract on a sole-source basis.
We deny the protest.
