Jeremy C. Graves, 43, of 1728 Huntington St., was charged by city police Wednesday night at 1730 Huntington St. with second-degree harassment, resisting arrest and obstructing emergency medical services.
Police said he swung a closed fist at Officer Kenny C. Noone and kicked Officer Jonathan M. Pitts while they were attempting to arrest him. He also tried to prevent officers from putting handcuffs on him and tried to fight with Guilfoyle emergency medical personnel and city firefighters who treated him for head injuries from a fall he took on blacktop, police said.
He was held at the Metro-Jefferson Public Safety Building on $500 bail pending arraignment.

In an unexpectedly wide field, six candidates will be vying for two open Watertown City Council seats.
Challengers Jasmine W. Borreggine, Stephen A. Jennings, Cody J. Horbacz and Rodney J. LaFave will face off against incumbents Jeffrey M. Smith and Teresa R. Macaluso in the nonpartisan election.
All six candidates filed their ballot petitions by 5 p.m. Thursday, the deadline set by the Jefferson County Board of Elections. Candidates had to collect 170 signatures each.
Theres a lot of interest in the city. People want new blood, more involvement, Democratic Election Commissioner Babette M. Hall said.
Council members are elected citywide. Primaries in the race are held only if five or more candidates submit valid petitions. In a four-candidate race, the top two vote-getters are elected.
A few months ago, there was speculation that only the incumbents would run for office.
Since then, the field has grown steadily, as announcements came sporadically throughout May and into June.
Mr. Horbacz and Mrs. Borreggine were the first to declare their intention to run, compelling Mr. Smith and Mrs. Macaluso to announce their bids for re-election in late May.
Ten days later, Mr. LaFave emerged as the fifth candidate, opening up the possibility of a primary.
Then days after Mr. LaFaves announcement, Mr. Jennings said he also would run.
The controversial roommate law passed by the council earlier this year, a ban on dogs at many city events and a debate over fluoridation of the citys water supply are credited with generating a greater level of interest in the election.
The primary election will be Sept. 10. The general election will be Nov. 5.

Each sidrah includes three interpretive elements: illustrations by Meron, excerpts from the JPS translation of that sidrah and its haftorah; and a brief summary by Dr. Ellen Frankel, noted author and scholar. Meron's personal style is characterized by the extensive use of bold colors in the naive style, similar to traditional American folk art, and by the incorporation of Hebrew text in her artwork.

Chicago Fire Homegrown prospect Harrison Shipp garnered another collegiate accolade Monday, as TopDrawerSoccer.com named the Notre Dame attacker its 2013 Collegiate Player of the Year.
Just over a week ago, Shipp led the Fighting Irish to its first ever NCAA College Cup, tallying the game-winning assist in a 2-1 win over Maryland in Chester, Pa.
Shipp's 12 goals and 10 assists for Notre Dame also made him a finalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy which is set to be awarded on January 10.
Though the club has not yet signed Shipp to a Homegrown deal, earlier this month MLS confirmed he was eligible to be signed directly by the Fire.
At a Season Ticket Holder Town Hall on December 14, the day before the College Cup final, Fire head coach and Director of Soccer Frank Yallop spoke highly of Shipp, comparing him to a young Mike Magee before insinuating the team would be bringing him in as a Homegrown player by saying, "We'll get him."
On Friday, September 27, the Fire welcomed representatives from its Fire Juniors affiliates across the country, including the participation of the recently launched Fire Juniors City, for the third annual Chicago Fire Juniors Summit at Toyota Park.
The annual convergence of the 10 Fire Juniors clubs, representing more than 10,000 players across seven different states, is extremely worthwhile according to Fire Juniors Affiliate Manager Brian Roberts.
"The summit is a great opportunity to lay out the new initiatives set by the player development department at the Club," he told Chicago-Fire.com on Monday. "But more importantly, it brings everyone together to exchange best practices and discuss new ideas in order to continue to grow and innovate."
This year's weekend event covered a wide range of topics and new initiatives centered on the summit's theme of "Tradition, Honor, Passion," including presentations on everything from social media to sponsorship, and marketing and bookkeeping. Spread across two days, the event weekend was received high marks from attendees, capped off by attending the Fire's thrilling draw with Montreal on Saturday night.

If you've paid attention to Victor Pineda's story over the last year, you'll know that just making the U.S. U-20 roster was a challenge.
The Fire's original Homegrown player came close to making his competitive debut at the end of 2012 before a meniscus injury sidelined him through much of this year's preseason.
Ever resilient, Pineda recovered in time to join the U.S. U-20s and will hopefully take the field when Tab Ramos' side opens up the FIFA World Youth Championships Friday vs. Spain in Istanbul, Turkey (LIVE 1pm CT on ESPN2).
Yanks Abroad's Brian Sciaretta wrote this excellent piece on Pineda's road to Turkey.
The Chicago Fire U16 and U18 Academy sides as well as the U18 Indiana Fire Academy learned their groups for next week's U.S. Soccer Federation Development Academy National Playoffs set to be held in Dallas, Texas earlier Monday.
UPDATE! U.S. Soccer then realized they had made a mistake with the drawings and held a re-draw for both age groups. Below are the updated groupings for the Chicago Fire U16, U18 and Indiana Fire Academy U18 side...
- Chicago Fire U18s are in Group 1 with Vancouver Whitecaps FC, Houston Dynamo and PA Classics
- Indiana Fire Academy U18s are in Group 7 with Baltimore Bays Chelsea, Chivas USA and De Anza Force (CA)
- Chicago Fire U16s are in Group 1 with De Anza Force (CA), Georgia United and Arsenal FC (CA)
With the USSFDA now into the fourth season of their current playoff format, the Fire Academy is one of just four clubs (out of 80) to see both U16 and U18 sides qualify for the National Playoffs every year.
They're joined by FC Dallas, CASL (NC) and Concorde Fire (GA) as the four clubs with the current distinction.
The USSFDA National Playoffs feature eight groups of four teams in a round-robin format with the winners of each group advancing to the July's national finals in Houston, Texas.
Earlier Draw, now null and void:
The Chicago Fire U18 side has been paired in Group 4 with Real Salt Lake (AZ), Dallas Texans and Weston FC (FL) while the Indiana Fire U18s join Vancouver Whitecaps, Pateadores (CA) and Kendall SC (FL) in Group 1.
The Chicago Fire U16s were drawn into Group 3 with PDA (NJ), Colorado Rapids and Revolution Empire (NY).
Fire Homegrown talent Victor Pineda is away with the US U-20 squad at the Toulon Tournament in France. The tournament is a prep for the FIFA U-20 World Cup taking place in Turkey later this month and could be make or break for players hoping to make that roster.
Coming off a right ankle injury, Pineda did not make the field in the Americans' first two matches against France and Colombia (both losses) but started and went 60 minutes in the U.S. win over the Democratic Republic of Congo Saturday. Here are my observations of Victor's performance:
Victor started on the right of a three man attack, wearing the number 7. He spent most of the first half playing almost on the touchline on the right wing.
Around the fifth minute, Pineda controlled a cross-field ball, cut inside and hit a tame shot on target with his left foot. He combined well with FC Dallas right-back Kellyn Acosta with the pair exchanging numerous one-two passes.
Pineda also tucked inside, allowing Acosta space to move into on the wing. The U.S. team applied a lot of high pressure on the DRC back line and at one point Pineda almost blocked a kick by the DRC keeper.
Coach Tab Ramos switched Pineda to the left wing and it was from this position that he created the U.S.'s best chance of the half. \
On 35 minutes, he got the ball wide and beat a DRC defender with pace before breaking into the box, faking right and cutting back left with a Cruyff turn, beating another defender before shooting with his left and forcing the keeper to make an excellent save. This was the last major action of the first half (40 minutes) for Pineda.
In the second half he continued on the left wing, cutting inside and demanding the ball off his teammates, displaying his strong self belief and confidence. He displayed another neat bit of skill 15 minutes into the second half when he allowed the ball to go in between his legs before turning away from a DRC player who could do nothing except foul him.
On 60 minutes, Victor was substituted, not surprising for a player who is only just coming back from an ankle injury.
In conclusion, Pineda was heavily involved during his time on the field and certainly made the case for a start in the US's last group match against South Korea on Wednesday (9:55am CT on beInSport).
Check back later this week for a recap of Victor's next match with the U-20s.

The Toyota Park Turf Field has been put to good use this week as the club's full-funded Academy program began tryouts for the 2013/14 Academy season.
The Chicago Tribune was put together a video documenting some of the tryout process with Academy Director Larry Sunderland, Staff Coach Charlie Trout and Director of Soccer & Team Development Paul Cadwell.
In the latest edition of Quaker Journeys, we sat down with Chicago Fire defender Austin Berry to his development from an all-sport athlete in Cincinnati, to a focus on the beautiful game at the University of Louisville to becoming the 2012 MLS Rookie of the Year with the Chicago Fire.
Be sure to check out our previous Quaker Journey with Patrick Nyarko (Part 1 and Part 2).
The trophy cases in the Chicago Fire lobby got a new addition last week, courtesy of the youngest members of the Fire organization. The Chicago Fire U-10 Academy team, playing up an age group, won the U-11 Crew Fall Classic Championship with a commanding 7-2 victory over the Crew Juniors Gold East on October 7. Before heading out to training last Thursday, the team was on hand to personally place their trophy in its place of honor.
For the young team, the Crew Fall Classic was their first opportunity to play together in a tournament.
"They really impressed me a lot over the weekend," said Head Coach Charlie Trout. "They really came together as a team and performed at a very high level. They started to build an identity as a team and as the tournament went on, their individual personalities really started to show. It was a great experience for them and I feel like they turned a big corner that weekend."
Perhaps what made the victory even sweeter was that it was against the Crew.
"A lot of the boys support the Chicago Fire," said Trout. "They know how huge the rivalry is between the Fire and the Crew, so that added a little more excitement for them."
And if displaying their trophy alongside the Alan I. Rothenberg Trophy from the Fire's historic 1998 MLS Cup victory wasn't enough excitement, the U-10s were given a special treat when Fire Head Coach Frank Klopas stopped by and addressed the team. Klopas spoke to the youngest members of the Fire family about the honor and responsibility that comes along with wearing the Fire badge.
"There have been times where Frank has come out and watched the boys train. You see the way they look over, see who he is and their excitement rises," said Trout. "For them to get the trophy that they worked so hard for and put it in the trophy cabinet that involves the whole club is fantastic for the young boys. It gives them such a confidence booster. It's great for them."

With fewer jobs available at high-paying law firms, 2010 law school graduates saw their median starting salaries fall by 13 percent from 2009, according to data from the National Association for Law Placement.NALPs research also reveals that aggregate starting private practice salaries fell a whopping 20 percent for the class. [...]
What? Entry level jobs day one after passing the bar down from $160K.....MADNESS!!!!!!Quick, everyone dropout and go to B-school where we can learn to make coffee and fake paperjams for extra cigarette breaks!!!!!
I agree with Thane. I think those who practice law who have some type of business background are far more likely to do well. Chances are, you'll be "running your own business" at some point in your law career.

Drug: Placebo
Drug: Golimumab
Drug: Golimumab (placebo group)
Phase 3
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Caregiver, Investigator, Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Phase 3, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study Evaluating the Efficacy and Safety of Golimumab in the Treatment of Chinese Subjects With Ankylosing Spondylitis
- Assessment of Ankylosing Spondylitis Response (ASAS 20) at Week 14 [ Time Frame: Week 14 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Number of patients who achieved a >= 20% improvement in ankylosing spondylitis symptoms, including back pain, function, and inflammation
- Assessment of Ankylosing Spondylitis Response (ASAS 20) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Number of patients who achieved a >= 20% improvement in ankylosing spondylitis symptoms, including back pain, function, and inflammation
- Change From Baseline in the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI) at Week 14 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 14 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]BASFI is a participant's self-assessment, represented as a mean (Visual Analogue Scale [Score]; 0 cm [easy] to 10 cm [impossible]) of 10 questions, 8 of which relate to the participant's functional anatomy and 2 of which relate to a participant's ability to cope with everyday life. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
- Change From Baseline in the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI) at Week 14 [ Time Frame: Baseline and Week 14 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]BASMI is a combined score of 5 components of spine flexibility, ranging from 0 (least impairment) to 10 (most impairment). A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
|Study Start Date:
|October 2010
|Study Completion Date:
|March 2012
|Primary Completion Date:
|May 2011 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
|Experimental: Placebo
Drug: Placebo
Placebo subcutaneous (SC) injections at Weeks 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20Drug: Golimumab (placebo group)
Golimumab with early escape at Week 16, 50 mg SC injections at Week 24 and every 4 weeks thereafter through Week 48
|Experimental: Golimumab
Drug: Golimumab
Golimumab 50 mg SC injection every 4 weeks for 48 weeks
Detailed Description:
Golimumab is a type of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor. TNF is a naturally occurring substance in the body, and this substance may cause long-term inflammation. Golimumab may help fight disease by blocking the activity of TNF in the body and reducing inflammation and pain. Each patient who is allowed to join the study will be put into a group randomly, like flipping a coin. Patients may get either golimumab or placebo (which looks like the drug being studied but has no active ingredients, for example a sugar pill). The chance that the patient will get golimumab is 1 to 1, so 50% chance to receive golimumab and 50% change to receive placebo. Patients who do not have an improvement in total back pain and morning stiffness at the Week 16 visit compared to when the patients entered the study, and are in Group 1 (placebo group), will receive golimumab 50 mg every 4 weeks starting at Week 16. If the patient is in Group 2 (golimumab 50 mg), they will continue to receive golimumab every 4 weeks starting at Week 16. If the patient is in Group 1 and still receiving placebo injections, because there was improvement in total back pain at Week 16, they will receive golimumab 50 mg every 4 weeks starting from Week 24. If the patient is in Group 2 (golimumab 50 mg) or are already receiving golimumab injections at week 24, they will continue to receive golimumab every 4 weeks. Safety will be monitored throughout the study, including drawing blood and looking at laboratory tests, vital signs (eg, blood pressure), and the frequency and type of adverse events (side effects). The patient will be in the study approximately 56 weeks. Patients will receive placebo or active compound (golimumab 50 mg subcutaneous injections) every four weeks until Week 48.

Detailed Description:
The clinical trial identifier is PIONEER II. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of adalimumab and to determine how well it works in the treatment of adults with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). HS is a chronic skin disease that creates red, swollen, painful bumps which can break open to combine and form tunnels in the skin and scars. Sometimes these bumps can heal themselves quickly and sometimes they will become much worse and create sores that heal with multiple combined scars, or areas that do not heal. In this study, approximately 300 adults will be enrolled at treatment centers worldwide. Subject participation in this study will be up to 50 weeks. There will be a screening period, which will last from 7 to 30 days, and a study treatment period of up to 36 weeks. Study visits occur at Screening, Baseline, and Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32 and 36 (or sooner if subject leaves the study before Week 36). The study is divided into two treatment periods. The first period (Period A) will last 12 weeks and the second period (Period B) will last 24 weeks.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adults must have a diagnosis of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) for at least 1 year prior to Baseline.
- HS lesions must be present in at least two distinct anatomical areas, one of which must be at least Hurley Stage II or Hurley Stage III.
- Subject must have stable HS for at least 60 days prior to Screening visit and at Baseline visit.
- Subject must have experienced an inadequate response to at least a 90 day treatment of oral antibiotics for treatment of HS.
- Subject must have a count of greater than or equal to 3 at baseline.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subject was previously treated with adalimumab or another anti-TNF therapy (e.g., infliximab or etanercept).
- Subjects on permitted oral antibiotic treatment for HS who have not been on a stable dose for at least 28 days prior to the Baseline visit;

New electric cattle guards have been installed along U.S. Highway 6 as part of a cost and space saving measure by UDOT.
Along U.S. Highway 6 between Helper and Price, two new electric cattle guards have been installed by the Utah Department of Transportation in cooperation with the department of wildlife resources.
Located where old highway meets the new one, the guards are a relatively new innovation. Aside from Canada and New Mexico, Utah is the only other locality.
The overall project is scheduled to be completed this fall, according to Kevin Kitchen, the public involvement manager at UDOT.
The electrical force used by the guards is similar to that of an electric fence with and with an output measured in milliampere.
Kitchen said they're safe to walk across, although it should not be done with pets, or without shoes.
Primarily, UDOT is using the guards as a cost and space solution to wildlife getting on the highway.
Around the areas with the guards, there exists about 20,000 feet of wildlife fencing. According to the state agencies, the new system uses less space than conventional cattle guards.
The other areas haven't had any problems with the new system thus far, according to Kitchen.
He added that the guards have "been studied for quite some time, and the ones by the golf course, (in between Price and Helper) are basically done."
The other guard will installed by Colton on U.S. 6, most likely this fall, said Kitchen.

The charge for this group is to set forth principles and parameters that can guide the University in using technology to support its academic mission and further its commitment to innovation in teaching and learning, pedagogical practices, and research.
To that end, the group will consult broadly with faculty, students, and other members of the NYU community, as well as external leaders in educational innovation.
Among the questions that the group should address are:
On the basis of these conversations, the group will prepare a written report for the University's Teaching Technology Committee, which will disseminate it widely for consideration across various units of the University and will then prepare a final recommendation to the President and Provost.
The Committee includes representatives from nearly every NYU school, as well as from the Faculty Senators Council.

MANASSAS, Va. (WUSA9) -- A Prince William County family with ancestors in the area going back centuries is furious as the county schools exhume bodies from a family plot from the 1800's.
Members of the Lynn family just found out about the schools plan to remove the graves to make way for the newest High School.
They rushed to the scene, sneaked in, and took pictures of archaeologists working in the graves. Richard Lynn and his son say they could clearly see coffins in the graves. They call it sacred ground.
The Lynns are outraged the county failed to reach out to them before they started digging. The leader of the excavation says he had no idea until recently that the plot was tied to people still living in the county.
A county schools spokeswoman says the remains are being treated with respect and that plots have been purchased to re-inter the bodies. There are 11 graves, and they include graves for two children and several teenagers. They were marked simply with field stones, as was common in Virginia until about the 1920's.
Prince William County Schools sayre-planning the site design around the graveyard would delay the much needed 12th High School and costhundreds of thousands of dollars, if it is even possible.

Monday, April 23, 2012
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Fresh off a weekend trip to take on Atlantic Sun Conference foe Stetson in DeLand, Fla., the Lipscomb baseball team continues road action on Tuesday night with a much shorter trek to take on non-conference foe Western Kentucky at 6 p.m. at Nick Denes Field in Bowling Green, Ky.
In a rematch of last week's extra-inning affair that saw the Hilltoppers come away with a 4-3 comeback win, the Bisons will send redshirt-junior Davey Hackett to the hill to face Western Kentucky freshman southpaw Ian Tompkins.
Last Wednesday's contest between the two squads saw the Bisons carry a 3-0 lead and a no-hitter into the ninth inning before the Hilltoppers rallied for three runs in the ninth to force extra innings.
Following the trip to Bowling Green on Tuesday, the Bisons return home for a three-game non-conference set against Campbell beginning on Thursday night at 6 p.m. at Dugan Field.
Follow along with all of the action and interact on the live blog.

Point Foundation empowers promising LGBTQ students to achieve their full academic and leadership potential – despite the obstacles often put before them – to make a significant impact on society.
David Seitz is a PhD candidate at the University of Toronto in human geography and women and gender studies. As a community journalist, activist, and urban cultural geographer, he has long been engaged with the relationships between faith, race, trans/nation, sexuality, spaces of belonging, and citizenship.David's dissertation research explores the role of the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto (MCCT) in Canadian progressive politics. While conventional political discourse holds that sex, religion and politics don't mix, the predominantly queer MCCT has played key roles in political struggles ranging from same-sex marriage to transgender rights to immigration reform to international human rights. David's community-based research explores how faith spaces and multiscalar faith-based activism can not only nurture queer communities, but critically inform progressive political change much more broadly.

Normally, errors occurs for data-change statements (such as
INSERT or
UPDATE) that would violate
primary-key, unique-key, or foreign-key constraints. If you
are using a transactional storage engine such as
InnoDB, MySQL automatically rolls back the
statement. If you are using a nontransactional storage engine,
MySQL stops processing the statement at the row for which the
error occurred and leaves any remaining rows unprocessed.
MySQL supports an
IGNORE keyword for
UPDATE, and so forth. If you
use it, MySQL ignores primary-key or unique-key violations and
continues processing with the next row. See the section for
the statement that you are using (Section 13.2.5, "INSERT Syntax",
Section 13.2.11, "UPDATE Syntax", and so forth).
You can get information about the number of rows actually
inserted or updated with the
mysql_info() C API function.
You can also use the
WARNINGS statement. See
Section 18.104.22.168, "mysql_info()", and
Section 184.108.40.206, "SHOW WARNINGS Syntax".
Currently, only
InnoDB tables support
foreign keys. See
Section 14.5.6, "InnoDB and FOREIGN KEY Constraints".

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
BEST OF ATOMIC 13/14! What a final, what a winter! The two superstars of the Atomic team secured the perfect ending of a successful season in today's World Cup Final in Lenzerheide: for the third time in a row, Marcel Hirscher won the overall world cup and remains the best racer (and slalom racer) in the world. Mikaela Shiffrin won the slalom crystal globe in addition to her gold medal in Sochi. In 2013/14, Atomic athletes secured 45 podiums.
Gustav Thöni – Ingemar Stenmark – Phil Mahre – and now: Marcel Hirscher! His third win in a row of the Overall World Cup at the age of only 25 allows him to be part of the Hall of Fame of ski history. Physical fitness, mental strength and intelligent racing – even in the very last run of this exciting winter Marcel Hirscher was able to combine his skills to an impressive performance. Thus, in addition to his third big crystal globe, he also won his third small crystal globe (Slalom World Cup victory 2013/14). It was not his success alone, as he emphasized after his triple: "I thank my team! We have pulled together; such results are not possible otherwise."
There is also a female equivalent to the impressive Marcel Hirscher story. Aged only 19 and at the beginning of her career, Mikaela Shiffrin has already realized the "Triple of Dreams": World Champion, Olympic Champion, Slalom World Cup winner. In addition to the gold medal in Sochi, Mikaela also won five out of eight World Cup races and thus crystal globe # 2 in a row. The secret of her success sounds refreshingly simple: "Getting better a little bit every day." A pleasing fact: The two superstars also use ATOMIC helmets in addition to their Redster setup (ski, boots, binding); Marcel Hirscher also uses Revel goggles by Atomic.
GREAT ATOMIC performance throughout the season
Marcel's triple, Mikaela's double, 5 victories each: the crowning highlights in a winter with many great moments. Atomic athletes took 45 World Cup podiums – 16 victories, 13 times 2nd place, 16 times 3rd place.
Best of, next to the triple victory of the Redster ladies (silver for Marlies Schild, bronze for Kathrin Zettel in the Olympic slalom) and Marcel Hirscher's silver medal in Sochi: Prior to her bitter injury at the Olympics, Tina Weirather had managed to take 10 podium places in four disciplines, she had won twice. Marlies Schild and Eric Guay won two World Cup races each. Benni Raich's return to the podium with his 2nd place in Kranjska Gora was one of the many moments of jubilation for the Atomic team in this winter.
There are also many success stories of the next generation of the Atomic team – names to remember for the future: Adrian Smiseth-Sejersted won gold in the downhill and silver in the super combined at the Junior World Championships, Daniel Danklmaier silver (Super G). Nora Grieg Christensen won her fourth medal, silver in the women's downhill.
Thomas Tumler (Switzerland) ahead of Victor Muffat (France) – double success in the Europa Cup for Atomic racers. Tumler's EC victory allows him to participate in Super G in the World Cup next season.

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
A FIS evaluation meeting regarding the preparation of the slope and the space between gates in the slalom messed up Marcel Hirscher's schedule. 10 minutes for a radio interview, then he's got 32 minutes for dinner, this is followed by some physiotherapy. "Salad and turkey ham, but no pork and no carbohydrates", this is what he reminds himself of at the buffet. His father, Ferdinand Hirscher, joins him at the table and provides information, "Minus 9 degrees Celsius and partly only 19 percent of snow wetness." DECIDING FOR A 0.1 MILLIMETER EDGE ANGLE Hirscher and Hirscher keep silent and do some mental math. "I think we should go for 0.1 at the bottom", Marcel says. This tenth of a millimeter as the edge angle at the coating will also be one of many factors determining the ideal setup for the aggressive snow. "And the sidecut?", the father asks and then mentions eight secret ski codes. After the testing of the slope, he has been studying training videos for two hours and now does combinations of the characteristics of the slope and possible distances between the gates. "It's similar to Val d'Isere", he explains to the winner of six races this season. In the end, ski-tech Edi Unterberg, a luminary, will prepare 4 models of the ATOMIC D2 RACE GS series for the race and this will take until the wee hours of the morning. Amount of work for each pair: three hours. There will be only little time left this night to sleep. Marcel Hirscher is leaving the table when telling his dad, "Also have the 33 prepared, please." The senior nods and then leaves the team restaurant with two sandwiches for Edi Unterberger. RACE OUTFIT AS FACEBOOK POSTING The therapy was worth it – the blockade in Hirscher's left knee is gone. Marcel Hirscher has already arrived in his room 222 in the Strazhite hotel for the race checkup. MTV is on, you hear it in the room. The race suit with the code 0505/11 is turned inside out on a clothes hook. Marcel Hirscher will wear "only the very sheer protection top" despite of forecasted minus 18 degrees. He puts the custom-made underarm protectors made of carbon, the lamellar back protector and his yellow ATOMIC helmet next to it. He contently takes a photo of his race outfit and then posts it on Facebook. CHANGING LENSES USING SOCKS Something quite strange happens next: Marcel Hirscher puts on super-sheer socks. On his hands: He does not want to leave any fingerprints when changing the orange lenses of two of his ATOMIC RACE goggles. He explains smiling, "It is always quite an adventure to remove the plastic sheet with socks." He still needs to get his ATOMIC backpack ready – with everything he needs for the race: outer garments, green hoods, sunglasses, the charger for his i-Phone. All right. He's done. He shuts down his laptop. 23 minutes ago he posted on Facebook. 690 people have "liked" it so far and 90 comments and good wishes can already be read. This racer has almost mastered all tasks necessary on the evening before a race.

This trash is complicated.
A draft local law written by the Development Authority of the North Country to capitalize on the common interests of its three charter counties is reawakening a politically charged debate for some Jefferson County officials, illustrating the complex economics of solid waste disposal.
The 12-page proposal, which has been submitted to Jefferson, Lewis, and St. Lawrence County legislators for review, aims to comply with tightening state regulations by reducing the per capita disposal rate through waste diversion and recycling. It depends on the cooperation of all three counties to do so.
All partners benefit from revenues generated by the disposal by the Authority, said Richard R. LeClerc, solid waste division manager for the Authority.
And that could mean flow control restricting the flow of waste generated within a county to that countys designated waste-disposal facility.
Its a controversial measure that County Legislators Philip N. Reed, R-Fishers Landing, and Michael W. Behling, R-Adams, strongly oppose.
For me its a philosophical question, said Mr. Reed, who is chairman of the Board of Legislators General Services Committee. The DANC landfill is well run, complies with all the laws, and provides a great service but I fundamentally do not favor flow control as a blanket option. There are instances when you restrict competition and the free market and it increases cost to the consumer and that can be a great amount of money. Waste haulers dont eat that cost, it gets passed on to the taxpayer. There are a lot of facets to flow control to consider. It can stifle competition and innovation.
Without flow control it keeps everybody cognizant of how to run their operations to the best of their abilities, he said.
The problem with flow control is that theres not competition and you can charge whatever you want because theres no other option, said Mr. Behling. If it does come up Im going to vote no on it. I think DANC does a fantastic job up there but I think we should keep it the way it is, keep it competitive.
Flow control has already been the subject of two U.S. Supreme Court Cases.
In C & A Carbone, Inc. v. Clarkstown, 1994, the Supreme Court struck down a flow control ordinance under the Commerce Clause of the Constitution because the law favored a private waste processing facility.
In United Haulers Association, Inc., et al., Petitioners v. Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Management Authority et al., 2007, the court upheld a flow control ordinance because waste was being delivered to facilities owned and operated by a state-created public benefit corporation. DANC is such an entity.
DANC is seeking to take advantage of the precedent set by that second decision to ensure the longevity of Rodman landfill, created by a 1986 inter-municipal agreement among the three counties.
Revenues at the DANC-managed landfill in Rodman are generated primarily by user fees based on quantity of waste delivered.
St. Lawrence and Lewis Counties have both implemented flow control. Jefferson County has not.
If all three counties were to adopt flow control measures, it would mean a secure revenue stream for the landfill.
Some legislators are in favor of the measure.
In theory you could say flow control is working against the free-market system but I can also see the counter debate, which is that by implementing flow control you can control the cost of the landfill for the consumer while taking care of our backyard, which is our responsibility, said county legislator Scott A. Gray, R-Watertown, chairman of the Finance and Rules Committee.
If its mismanaged, the legislature has the ability to take that flow control away, Mr. Gray said. I can see both sides, I can understand both sides. I tend to fall on the side that Im okay with flow control.
Mr. LeClerc pointed to a recent demolition project on Fort Drum where debris were trucked out of the county as an example of the detriment that not implementing flow control can have. The Authority was not able to charge or receive tipping fees on those loads to support operating costs at the landfill.
The tipping fee at the landfill was raised $5 on Jan. 1, 2013 for the first time ever in the life of the facility, according to Mr. LeClerc.
Fees have either decreased or held steady since 1992, he said. But recently, the revenues being generated were not sufficient at the rate being charged.
Jefferson County Highway Supervisor James L. Lawrence runs the county transfer station, where smaller hauling companies and private individuals can drop off trash to be trucked to the Rodman facility by the county.
Speaking of the demolition debris, Mr. Lawrence said, If that was coming here, maybe they wouldnt have had to raise that $5 a ton.
The tipping fee per ton is $44 at the DANC facility. By comparison, the tipping fee at the Oneida-Herkimer facility in Ava is $70 per ton,
The town of Rodman receives a per ton community benefit payment from the landfill.
During its last two budget cycles, the Town Council has had to contend with a decrease in this revenue because increased recycling volume in the county has reduced the amount of tonnage entering the DANC facility.
According to Mr. LeClerc, even though the single line item amount for a given year may decrease for the town, the reductions in waste disposal volume on a year by year basis indicates a positive trend because it means that the revenue stream will continue longer into the future.
The landfill is designed to hold a certain amount of tonnage, so the town will still see the same amount of overall revenue. The reduction due to waste diversion simply changes the timeline, Mr. LeClerc said.
Some haulers can still elect to take their trash to an outside area where a private landfill might charge a discounted rate.
The nearest private landfill for Jefferson County is Seneca Meadows in Seneca Falls, more than 100 miles from Watertown. Information about tipping fees at the Seneca Meadows facility was not available as of Tuesday night.
Depending on how the numbers work out, sometimes it can be worth the transportation costs, according to Mr. Lawrence.
Keeping tipping fees uniform can be the key to encouraging recycling, according to Jan M. Oatman, regional recycling coordinator for DANC.
In the areas where the tip fee is artificially low theres no financial incentive to recycle, Ms. Oatman said.
According to Ms. Oatman, it is to the counties advantage to act in concert.
We can all work together on this to achieve the goals DEC has set out: less waste going to the landfill, she said.
The draft will go through one of the Jefferson County Board of Legislators committees, where it will be reviewed and adapted to the countys individual needs, according to Jefferson County Deputy Administrator Michael E. Kaskan.
Despite flow controls contentious history and Mr. Behling and Mr. Reeds strident philosophical objections, officials arent anticipating a protracted battle over the measure, especially since DANC has given each individual county a high degree of autonomy in structuring their own versions of the law.
It wont be the emotional kind of debate it was in the early 1990s, but it will be a hearty discussion, said County Administrator Robert F. Hagemann III.
And even if Jefferson County decides not to implement flow control, it may not have much of an effect from a practical standpoint.
The landfill seems to be the economically sensible place for waste haulers to take their solid waste and it doesnt appear that were losing waste due to not having flow control, said Mr. Kaskan.
The trash business is also about transportation, Mr. Reed said. Its very advantageous to dump at Rodman. Theyve gone to great lengths to be a consumer friendly facility. They move trucks in and out efficiently; theres a lot of tools in place to make haulers want to go there. With competitive tipping fees and a business type structure they capture virtually all the market.

CHEEKTOWAGA, N.Y.- From afar the scene on Rachelle Drive in Cheektowaga looks like a typical summer camp. The kids wear matching T-shirts, paint sometimes gets splattered in the wrong spot, and the kids are smiling and laughing.
But as it turns out, this isn't a summer camp at all.
In honor of the men and women fighting over seas, Pam DiSalvo has rallied some troops of her own. Joining the rank and file: About thirty kids from her street.
"You try to make the birdhouses look nice for the soldiers and kind of let them know that you appreciate what they do for you," said 10-year-old Emily Staniszewski.
The group has spent the summer making more than a hundred of those birdhouses, as well as wooden gates for members of the military
"A symbol of welcome home," DiSalvo explains, "You know, a little house, with a card that says, glad you're home." A mother of two active-duty servicemembers herself, DiSalvo is doing her part to make sure members of the military feel appreciated.
Eleven-year-old Breanna Murphy writes poems for the soldiers, with a message.
"How I appreciate them, how I always think about them, and that they're doing a really good thing for our country," said Murphy.
In August, a local organization, Jammies for GIs, will take the the boxes of crafts and letters to Bethesda, Maryland where they'll be distributed to wounded troops.
"To see kids that are dedicated to spend the time, to help the soldiers, it means a lot," Cheryl Lepsch, founder of Jammies for GIs "Especially as a mother of somebody who was in the hospital and received a quilt from a quilters club in Pennsylvania, it really means a lot."
The kids' commander is just as dedicated as her army. Not only does she act as craft coordinator, DiSalvo buys all the supplies and keeps them all in her house; and she's happy to do it.
"They're awesome, these kids are awesome kids, they still have that innocence of a child, you know, it's great to see," said DiSalvo.
Birdhouses that aren't donated will be sold at a yard sale at 52 Rochelle Drive August 6th and 7th.
The money they make will help pay for the gas for the trip to Bethesda.
