	RDX Biodegradation by a Methanogenic Enrichment Culture Obtained from an Explosives Manufacturing Wastewater Treatment ...
		RDX is manufactured at the Holston Army Ammunition Plant (AAP) in Kingsport, TN.
		RDX is also a frequent component of pink water, a hazardous wastewater generated from: (1) load, assembly, and packaging (LAP) of conventional ammunition items, and (2) demilitarization operations where explosives are washed out of disassembled ammunition (Concurrent Technologies Corporation 1996).
		While RDX degradation and nitrate removal occurred in the experimental systems studied, it is not clear whether RDX degradation and nitrate depletion occurred simultaneously.

		RDX was biodegraded in serum bottles incubated under methanogenic conditions (Figure 2).
		Although no other intermediates were observed in the HPLC chromatograms, the biodegradation of RDX was hypothesized to proceed in a manner similar to that proposed by McCormick, Cornell, and Kaplan (1981), who reported that the RDX molecule is destabilized and spontaneously fragments when the nitro groups are reduced to the hydroxylamino level.
		RDX was biodegraded by the enrichment culture when ethanol, pyruvate, or glucose were supplied as electron donors (Figure 3).

		It seems fair to say that MSNBC is not saying that the missing RDX was already missing from al Qa Qaa when their embedded reporters arrived in Baghdad with US troops.
		The UN under its terms of inspection, could have destroyed the RDX in the course of its inspection, but it judged that course of action to be improper.
		But it was his judgement that the RDX did not, under his terms of reference, have to be destroyed, since it had potential civilian applications.

	2007 Acura RDX - AutoWeek
		While the RDX can be compared to the X3—and we got a chance to do just that—you could also compare it to the Mazda CX-7, which covers the Acura very closely in specs and purpose, as well as the Land Rover LR3, which is a little upscale.
		But the RDX also rides on the same new light-truck platform that will carry the next Honda CR-V. So you could look at it as a dressed-up CR-V. Acura calls the RDX “a fusion of SUV functionality and sports-sedan handling,” which is a big claim.
		While Acura compares the RDX to the X3, which is several thousand dollars higher in sticker, the RDX’s powertrain, suspension and the segment in which it sits more closely mimics the CX-7, which is several thousand dollars less, depending on configuration.

		So, while the Samba police in Jammu district were congratulating themselves over the seizure of 20 kg of RDX at Sapowal village on Sunday, the truck with the bigger load of the explosive had either already crossed Samba or was to pass it later.
		Apart from the 315 kg of RDX the Army seized from the godown of the Kashmir Cargo Carrier, another 70 kg of RDX was seized in Srinagar from a handcart, also on Monday, by a special operations team of the police and the CRPF.

		The system, which is capable of splitting torque front to rear as well as left to right (in the rear only) is known for endowing the RL with superb handling.
		When asked if the RDX was a crossover SUV, John Mendel, senior vice president of Honda/Acura auto operations, insisted it was more truck than car and that crossovers are really a combination of the two.

		Perhaps the reason the RDX isn't mentioned can be found via a link through Josh Marshall, quoting NBC's Jim Miklaszewski.
		But inspectors were unable to inspect the RDX stockpile and could not verify that the RDX was still at the compound.
		Incidentally, the condition of Al Qa Qaa is yet more indirect proof of the redeployment of war materiel which took place under the cover of UN obstruction, most notably by barring 4ID from attacking south through Turkey into the Sunni Triangle, which was the subject of Belmont Club's War Plan Orange.

		Acura claims that the RDX is aimed at younger, more active shoppers, a point clearly made by the SUVâ€™s sporty design.
		From certain angles, the 2007 RDX resembles the Porsche Cayenne, while the tail looks to be influenced by the Infiniti FX and possibly the Volkswagen Touareg, though the direct competitors are more along the lines of the BMW X3.

	2007 Acura RDX - 2006 New York Auto Show - Automobile Magazine
		Last year's RD-X concept, a small crossover SUV, gave way this year to the Detroit show's RDX (note the loss of the hyphen), a "near-production prototype" that was nearly identical to the vehicle that will go on sale this summer as a 2007 model after its April 12 New York auto show debut.
		The RDX is clearly related to last year's concept vehicle, with a similar roofline, greenhouse, and C-pillars.
		One would assume that the RDX is built on a variant of the Honda CR-V platform, but Acura insists that it is actually underpinned by an "all-new global light truck platform." We assume the company will elaborate on that assertion in due time.

		In brief, the RDX technology is embodied in removable disk cartridges that can be used for the same functions that would typically require tape cartidges; including--and especially--the placement of critical data on removable data cartridges for offsite storage for disaster recovery and archival.
		The RDX platform is currently in beta test, and is expected to be generally available in 2006.

	Preview Review: 2007 Acura RDX - Previews - Car and Driver - July 2006
		Speaking of looks, what the Acura RDX resembles a lot, particularly from the B-pillar forward, is its big brother, the MDX.
		The RDX rides on a shorter (by 2.0 inches) 104.3-inch wheelbase, and at 180.7 inches long, 73.6 inches wide, and 65.2 inches tall, it is 8.0, 3.4, and 3.5 inches smaller, respectively, than the MDX.
		With the turbo blowing at max boost (13.5 psi) and the engine generating max output (240 horsepower at 6000 rpm), the RDX should be capable of 0-to-60-mph times under eight seconds, comparable with the BMW X3.
