Purpose-built buckets have been planned as an integrated part of the excavator for which they're intended – delivering precise control and superior productivity. From the bucket to the quick coupler, tiltrotator, hydraulics and factory installed control system, everything is engineered to match and supplied and supported by Volvo.
The bucket progressive radius makes it easier to dig and provides low resistance – increasing productivity. The flat top maintains breakout force and the long floor improves fuel efficiency by ensuring the bucket is easy to fill.
Volvo is the only manufacturer to offer a factory fitted Steelwrist tiltrotator for both its wheeled and crawler excavators. The Volvo fitted system provides superior quality and is fully supported in terms of parts and warranty.
The factory fit control system automatically prevents the opening of the top quick coupler if a tiltrotator is attached – increasing safety when changing attachments. For ultimate safety when changing attachments, front pin lock technology prevents the bucket from falling even if the operator fails in the connection procedure. The positive lock indication system displays green when the bucket is in a secure position.
The grading bucket has been optimized for use with a tiltrotator and is designed for accurate and precise landscaping, finishing and sloping jobs. Angled corners allow the bucket to work in close proximity to objects. The bucket easily rotates when full without dropping material.
Designed for work in narrow trenches and commonly used when laying cables. The bucket's long profile allows it to work close to pipes and cables.
This bucket is intended for digging and moving loose material such as sand, clay, dirt and gravel.
The reinforced heavy-duty bucket is designed for digging and excavating in abrasive materials. This bucket can also be used for trenching or moving materials when a high load capacity is required.
The extreme-duty bucket is designed to work in the toughest applications and most demanding environments.
*Steelwrist® is a registered trademark of Steelwrist AB.
Whether you buy it new or used, rent it or lease it, Volvo Attachments for excavator are ready to help operators do more work each day, in a wide range of applications.

New Clemson secondary coach Mike Reed has already turned one of his former NC State recruits to Clemson and this weekend he will gain a second for the Tigers at the Wolfpack's expense. DB Marcus Edmond (6-1 175) of Lower Richland committed to State last June, but last weekend Reed contacted him with a Clemson offer and he scheduled an official visit with the Tigers for this weekend. And Edmond said Thursday night he plans to flip to the Tigers. "I would say its very strong," Edmond said of the likelihood of a Clemson commitment. "Clemson was always a place I wanted to go. And coach Reed, he recruited me first and North Carolina State. And coach Reed went to Clemson and wanted me to come with him, so I'm coming with him." Edmond has not officially committed to Clemson but that will happen this weekend. On a scale of 1-10 as to the likelihood he will commit, Edmond said, "I would say a 10." Edmond said he's made several visits to Clemson including one for a junior day last spring. His parents will join him this weekend. Edmond played mostly quarterback last season and passed for 1230 yards and 14 touchdowns and rushed for 858 yards and 10 touchdowns. He also had 46 tackles and 4 interceptions on defense. Clemson likes him as a cornerback. "He has loose hips and turns on the ball well," said is coach Darryl Page. "He has tremendous athleticism.. He had to play quarterback this season and was the catalyst for a lot of things we did."Tweet

R1™ fleece brings technical benefits to this urban-styled hoody sweater that wicks, breathes and dries quickly; made of Polartec® Power Dry® 93% polyester (41% recycled)/7% spandex.
In 1993, we adopted fleece into our product line made from post consumer recycled (PCR) plastic soda bottles. We were the first outdoor clothing manufacturer to do so. PCR™ clothing was a positive step towards a more sustainable system – one that uses fewer resources, discards less and better protects people's health.
Today, we're able to utilize more sources for recycled polyester and offer it on more garments such as Capilene® baselayers, shell jackets, board shorts, and fleece. We now recycle used soda bottles, unusable manufacturing waste, and worn out garments (including our own) into polyester fibers to produce many of our clothes.
Using recycled polyester lessens our dependence on petroleum as a raw material source, curbs discards and reduces toxic emissions from incinerators.
We promote fair labor practices, safe working conditions and environmental responsibility throughout the Patagonia supply chain.

RECORDS: San Jose State 5-5, Navy 6-4
KICKOFF: 6:30 p.m., Spartan Stadium
SERIES HISTORY: SJSU leads 2-0. The Spartans won 12-0 last year in Annapolis, Md., and 27-24 in 2011 in San Jose.
STORYLINE: Time is running short for SJSU to gain bowl eligibility after losing the past two games. The regular-season finale is next week vs. No. 15 Fresno State, and the Spartans will be decided underdogs in that game, so this is the best shot for SJSU to become bowl eligible. Navy has accepted a bid to the Armed Forces Bowl, where it will face a team from the Mountain West Conference.
INJURY UPDATE: San Jose State -- WR Noel Grigsby (knee), RB Tyler Ervin (ankle), DT Tony Popovich (shoulder), LB Vince Buhagiar (shoulder), LB Derek Muaava (knee), LB Ryan Goforth (shoulder), TE Andrew Vollert (shoulder), OL David Catalano (foot) and TE Max Miller (undisclosed) are out. OL Ryan Jones (foot) is questionable. Navy -- SB Colin Osborne (knee), NG Bernard Sarra (ankle), OT Graham Vickers (head), QB John Hendrick (knee) are out. S Chris Ferguson (head) is doubtful. C Tanner Fleming (head), CB Kwazel Bertrand (neck), FB Noah Copeland (leg) and FB Chris Swain (hamstring) are questionable.
MATCHUP TO WATCH: Navy's running game vs. San Jose State's defense. The Midshipmen are fifth in the nation at 311.0 yards rushing per game and have been in the top 10 nationally every year since 2002. The Spartans are surrendering 201.6 per game on the ground -- tied for 99th in the nation -- and allowed 311 to Nevada last week. If there's no improvement, SJSU could be in big trouble.
STATS THAT MATTER: Navy has been held under 100 yards rushing once during coach Ken Niumatalolo's tenure, and that was against SJSU last year when the Spartans allowed 70. The 144 yards of total offense also is Navy's lowest output in Niumatalolo's tenure. ... SJSU QB David Fales needs 154 yards to surpass Adam Tafralis for the Spartans' all-time career passing yards mark. He's two touchdown passes from breaking Steve Clarkson's record.

A former Bartlett man was sentenced Monday to 18 months in prison for inappropriately touching a young female relative in his home.
Kevin A. Townsend, 32, was living at 2214 State Route 550 in October 2011 when he pushed the girl into his bedroom and refused to let her leave, according to prosecutors.
However, the crime did not surface until this January when the victim, now 14, reported the incident to her grandmother, said Washington County Prosecutor Jim Schneider.

JASMINE ROGERS The Marietta Times
Former Bartlett resident Kevin Townsend, left, in Washington County Common Pleas Court Monday.
"(Townsend) pushed her into the back bedroom and tried to pull up her shirt," he said.
The girl reported that Townsend touched her breasts and tried to get her to perform sexual acts on him before she escaped the room.
When arrested Jan. 30, Townsend admitted to purposely grabbing the child's breast after having sexual thoughts about her, said Washington County Sheriff Larry Mincks at the time of arrest.
Townsend was indicted in March for gross sexual imposition, a third-degree felony, and pleaded guilty to the charge June 5.
Townsend's attorney, Rolf Baumgartel, made a bid for leniency Monday in Washington County Common Pleas Court, pointing to Townsend's pre-sentence investigation report. The report indicated he was unlikely to recommit and showed a lack of criminal history, said Baumgartel.
"The only real criminal past he's had were some difficulties in the past with his marriage," he said.
Townsend has previous criminal convictions for domestic violence and aggravated menacing.
Schneider indicated that the state was satisfied with the agreed disposition in the case, which is what Washington County Common Pleas Court Judge Randall Burnworth ultimately sentenced.
"A prison term is consistent with the facts of the case," he said, sentencing Townsend to 18 months in prison.
Because the charge was of a sexual nature, Townsend faced up to five years in prison.
He posted a $75,000 bond through a bondsman three days after his arrest and will get credit for those three days, said Burnworth.
Upon his release from prison, Townsend will be required to register as a tier 2 sex offender with a child victim.
Townsend will be living in McConnelsville after his release, he told Burnworth.
The victim's mother was present in court Monday, but did not wish to make a statement.

i agree with this completely......compensations for families who lost loved ones in terrorist attacks should be smiliar but its not because NYC is such a high profile area and more money goes through downtown NYC than Oklahoma City or the US embassies.....its not in the article but the difference between a family who lost someone on Sept 11 and a family who lost a loved one in the other two attacks is quite disturbing
although ive known congressman to be overpaid for quite a while, it is outrageous to see a 14K difference between a congressman and a military vet
im just venting after reading this article

USA, 1989, 96 Minute Running Time
Genre/Subject: Romantic Comedy
2pm Wed March 6
Rob Reiner's romantic comedy When Harry Met Sally stars Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan as the title pair. The film opens with the two strangers, both newly graduated from the University of Chicago, share a car trip from Chicago to New York, where they are both going to make their way. During the trip, they discuss aspects of their characters and their lives, eventually deciding it is impossible for men and women to be "just friends." They arrive in New York and go their separate ways. They meet a few years later on an airplane and Harry reveals he is married. They meet again at a bookstore a few years after that where Harry reveals he is now divorced. From that point on, the two form a friendship. Eventually their closeness results in their respective best friends (played by Carrie Fisher and Bruno Kirby) meeting and falling in love with each other. At a New Year's Eve party Harry and Sally confront the complex tangle of emotions they feel for each other. The soundtrack consists primarily of Harry Connick Jr. crooning standards like "It Had to Be You." ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

EAGLE COUNTY, Colorado - District attorney candidate Scott Turner wants to win this campaign and maybe one more.
"I have no political aspirations beyond this job. I'm running for this job because I love what I do and I believe in what the job is about," Turner said.
Turner is a Republican campaigning to be the top cop in the Fifth Judicial District - Eagle, Lake Summit and Clear Creek counties.
"It's truly something I believe in or I wouldn't be doing this," Turner said.
Turner said the District Attorney's Office needs to make some changes, and that his opponent, Democrat Bruce Brown, lacks the experience to make those changes.
"Anything he has done that he thinks is a qualification for this job, I've done it and more," Turner said.
Going for the goal
Turner earned his bachelor's and law degrees in five and a half years from the University of Missouri-Kansas City, graduating in 1989.
"I knew where I was going and I was in a hurry to get there," he said.
He walked from the commencement line to a job with the sex crimes unit in the Kansas City District Attorney's office. He handled several hundred cases a year, most of them horrible.
"I saw anything you could imagine," Turner said. "The first month I wondered what I'd gotten myself into, people doing things to little kids that shouldn't happen to adults, let alone little kids," Turner said.
Kids would come into his office and tell the most horrific stories.
"That's 22 years ago and I still remember them as plain as day. They'd talk about it and then turn around and play with a toy truck," Turner said.
You don't get used to it, you just learn to live with it and go about the work of putting bad guys in jail.
"You get in there and do the best you can for the victim," Turner said.
He said that's part of what has him working with several victims advocates groups around the four-county Fifth Judicial District.
Eventually, he moved from sex crimes to more mainstream crime, which was a paradigm shift.
"People getting their cars stolen and shoplifting from department stores didn't quite measure up to 4-year-olds getting sexually assaulted by their parents," Turner said, shaking his head and smiling.
He stayed with the Kansas City DA's office for three and a half years before moving into private practice.
Domestic violence audit
Turner said part of the success in any organization is spotting and mentoring talent.
"Part of the reward is working with young attorneys and watching them grow," Turner said.
The past couple years he's been working on a domestic violence audit. It tracks from the time the phone call is made to police to when the perpetrator's sentence is served.
He said the dynamics of a domestic violence case make them especially tough because law enforcement officers are normally dealing with people who claim to love each other.
"Usually they're in a close relationship with the offender," Turner said.
Prosecuting those cases is a fine line because it creates an adversarial relationship between the victim and the offender, he said.
"Many times victims don't want to cooperate because they're in a close relationship with that person," Turner said. "We don't want to re-victimize someone, but we don't want to put them in a position where it happens again."
In Colorado last year, 38 deaths were attributed to domestic violence violations, he said.
"We never want to see what seems to be a minor case end up as something like that," Turner said. "As a district attorney, you take a strong stance up front so it doesn't escalate into something like that."
Colorado bound
Turner grew up around Kansas City and moved to Colorado in 2005.
His three-partner firm was going its separate ways. One partner became a judge. The other had just had a baby and was trying to have another. It was time to make the jump to Colorado, so he pointed his vehicle into the sunset and followed Horace Greeley's most memorable advice, "Go west, young man."
He works in the DA offices in all four counties. It's not uncommon to be in three offices in a day and all four each week, he said.
He says that helps him understand the caseload, the staff and the budget. The DA's office is funded through an equation of sales taxes, case load and property values. Eagle County last year was 52 percent of the District Attorney's Office budget.
In all those years and all those cases, he said he has learned that there's no such thing as a sure thing.
"I've walked into courtrooms knowing I would lose and won. Other times I've walked in with a slam dunk case and the jury comes back with not guilty," Turner said, adding that slam dunk cases either way should not be going to trial.
"When you've done it 20 years you've seen it all. I've been lucky. I usually agree with the jury. I may disagree with their decision but I understand their reasoning," he said. "It's hard to take someone's freedom away, and it should be. I always tell juries after they return a verdict that they have the toughest job in the courtroom. They have to make the big decision."

Wednesday January 16, 2013
Augusta, Ga--For the first time in school history the Laney Wildcats are fielding a wrestling team. And don't think this squad is made up of dumb jocks. Several of the kids are AP students who are trying to leave their mark on the program.
As they wrestle into the second half of the season, the cats are starting to get a hang of it. Almost all of these kids only knew pro wrestling, not the amateur and high school style. Heck, getting the mats and wrestling gear was a challenge as well. But under the direction of Shahid Abdul Jabbar, these cats are proving hard work pays off.
"There has been so much development in such a short amount of time" said coach Shahid Abdul Jabbar "we started literally November first and they had no knowledge of actual Georgia high school wreslting so we've gone from that to where we've had a couple of medal winners in the county championships."
"The conditioning wasn't as hard as in other sports" said freshman LaXavier Twiggs "Having someone be on you the whole time so it's kind of different
Besides having a number of AP students on the team, they also have a couple of females, including Monic West. She plays other sports and while her parents were shocked she wanted to wrestle, they were fully supportive. Monic has a competitive side to her as well to show up the competition.
"Well there was a time when this boy was like laughing and joking and he picked me up but I got out of it and I slammed his face into the mat" said Monic West "So that was pretty exciting but that only happened a couple of times. I kept slamming his face into the mat though"
The girls on the team are now sisters with the rest of the team. If the wins keep adding up like they hope to do, who knows, we could see a winning tradition at laney like they have in pretty much every other sport.

MARTINEZ -- A federal judge on Friday threw out a lawsuit lodged by a Contra Costa deputy district attorney who claims he was maliciously prosecuted on rape charges.
Martinez resident Michael Gressett, who is currently on paid leave, alleged in court documents he was the victim of a widespread conspiracy. But U.S. District Judge Edward Chen said that simply was not the case.
Gressett was arrested in May 2008 and later indicted on charges that he raped a junior colleague while on their lunch break. The case was dismissed in October 2011 when a judge ruled that state prosecutors should have told the grand jury that indicted Gressett that the woman who accused him of rape received a $450,000 settlement from Contra Costa County. The state Attorney General's Office never said why in February 2012 it declined to refile charges.
In May 2012, Gressett filed a federal civil lawsuit against the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office, retired District Attorney Bob Kochly and police officers and attorneys involved in the case against him.
Gressett alleged that defendants were politically motivated to pursue rape charges and ignore contradictory evidence. His lawsuit claimed the defendants were attempting to politically maim the campaign of Gressett's friend Mark Peterson, who was running for Contra Costa County district attorney. Gressett alleged the defendants thought Peterson's association with him would taint Peterson's image and as such would prevent him from being elected.
Chen wrote in his opinion Friday that Gressett's accusations suffered from a "fatal flaw" in that they were not backed up by proof or facts to support his claims. He added that Gressett's claims largely depended on the existence of a conspiracy involving all the defendants, yet there was no evidence to suggest the defendants "conspired to maliciously prosecute him and subject him to false arrest."
"All of his causes ... rely on each defendant having some degree of knowledge that (Gressett) did not commit rape," Chen wrote. "Yet he largely does not plead facts suggesting they had any knowledge, instead simply concluding that all defendants 'knew' that the woman accusing him of rape had reason to lie."

Hi Mantar,
Thank you for looking further into this and updating your findings. The information you have provided is very interesting and helpful. I believe this is the first time I've read a direct comparison between the two OS's and how much they exactly differ. In particular, the information strongly suggests that between the two OS's, one is basically trading one set of problems, for another. Which is very unfortunate.
If you have a free moment, I'd appreciate it if you could look at the Java path error on both platforms that I mentioned previously. I wonder if the path error only happens on Windows or does it also happen on Linux. The path error is located here:
Java Control Panel-> Java Tab-> View Button (Java Runtime Environment Settings)->Path
While that section of Java appears to be broken, ultimately it doesn't seem to matter since JavaW.exe can still be found despite the wrong information contained within.
On a different matter, I have no proof but it feels to me that Java v1.6.0_15 is a little quicker than Java v1.6.0_14. Maybe it is wishful thinking and it's nothing more than a placebo effect. I'll need to get the Stopwatch out again and do some measurements while keeping in mind that the three-levels-of-wait (Magnifying glass, first time entering a file directory on the PS3, and directory listing) are not consistent. So, it would have to be a noticeable timed improvement. BTW, if I was going to downgrade anything, it's unlikely it would be Java, instead I'd rollback to an earlier version of PS3MS. I don't recall PS3MS v1.04 having multiple DLNA protocol 2006 errors. Although at some point I may do just that to reaffirm my belief.
I fixed the stuttering problem I was having. Readers of this thread might remember earlier when I said that the stuttering problem happened more on a wired connection than on a wireless one. As it turned out my Intel Pro/1000 NIC "Link Speed & Duplex" settings in Advance Properties needed to be reverted back to it's default "Auto Detect". That cleared up the streaming problem completely.
Also, among the 2,757 files I (so-far) found 5 MPEG-1 videos that the PS3 does not like (ie: Error 80028801). Before re-muxing them myself, I thought I would force MEncoder to process all MPG/MPEG files. While this did fixed the 5 videos that wouldn't play, it also screwed up more videos than it fixed. Needless to say, I'm no longer allowing MEncoder anywhere near MPG/MPEG files.
Lastly, I too would hope more people would speak up, but realistically I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. Looking at some of the threads posted in here reveals that more people are having problems than there are people who have answers.

STANFORD -- Linebacker Shayne Skov and two other major contributors to Stanford's unbending defense announced Saturday they plan to return for their senior seasons instead of entering the NFL draft.
Defensive end Ben Gardner, outside linebacker Trent Murphy and Skov said via Twitter that they planned to use their fifth years to play for the Cardinal, which won the Rose Bowl on Tuesday for the first time in 41 years.
Gardner wrote: "For those who are wondering, I'll be back at #StanU for my 5th year and another big #partyinthebackfield ...got that crystal ball on my mind."
The crystal ball reference is about the player's goal to win a BCS championship.
Skov followed Gardner's announcement by making reference to the players' distinctive hair styles: "The Mohawk would never leave The Mullet behind #1moreyear"
Skov, who grew up in Piedmont, did not immediately return a call asking for further comment.
Finally Murphy tweeted, "Alright, alright, Wouldn't be right to leave the crew behind. Your boy's got #1moreyear at #StanU"
Stanford's defense played a big role in the Cardinal's 12-2 season and No. 8 national ranking. Stanford allowed opponents an average of 17.2 points per game last season.
Skov led the team with 81 tackles a year after a season-ending knee injury. Murphy had 56 tackles and a team-leading 10 sacks whereas Gardner had 49 tackles and 7 ½ sacks.

LEEDS – More children throughout Alabama will have access to high-quality, voluntary pre-kindergarten thanks to nearly 100 grants announced by Governor Robert Bentley on Wednesday.
"The most important part of a child's education is a good, solid foundation, and our First Class voluntary pre-k program provides that," Governor Bentley said. "All children, regardless of where they live, deserve the opportunity to excel. A high-quality, voluntary pre-k program improves their chances of success in K-12 school. This is a wise investment that will benefit children and families throughout Alabama."
The grants announced by Governor Bentley will expand Alabama's First Class voluntary pre-k program to more schools, preschools, child care centers, Head Start locations, and other new and expanding pre-k sites across the state. Grants were awarded based on several criteria including local needs, local demand and high quality standards at the new and expanding pre-k sites.
"Demand for these grants far exceeded our supply, and that's a testament to the need for expanding access to this program," Governor Bentley said. "I want to give more families the option of enrolling their children in voluntary pre-k, and I will continue my efforts to expand access to First Class even more."
"This program was developed by early childhood education experts from Alabama for the children of Alabama," Governor Bentley added. "We have Alabama-based guidelines and quality assurances. And by expanding access to this voluntary program, we can benefit more children here in Alabama."
Alabama's First Class program is nationally-recognized for its quality. Alabama is currently one of only four states in the country to meet all 10 quality benchmarks established by the National Institute for Early Education Research. The benchmarks include teacher training, staff-child ratios, support services and more. First Class has now met all of these benchmarks for seven years in a row.
However, only six percent of Alabama's four-year-olds are currently enrolled in the First Class program. The state also ranks a disappointing 33rd in access among the 40 states that offer pre-k programs. In order to expand access, Governor Bentley proposed additional funding for voluntary pre-kindergarten in the fiscal year 2014 Education Trust Fund. In May, the Alabama Legislature approved more than $9 million in additional voluntary pre-k funding.
First Class is managed by the Alabama Office of School Readiness. The office is part of the Alabama Department of Children's Affairs, which is overseen by Governor Bentley.
Jeana Ross, the Governor's Commissioner of Children's Affairs, said the demand for expansion grants has been strong in communities throughout the state, and efforts will continue for additional expansion in the future.
"This is the next step in a long-term process of giving more families the opportunity to send their children to voluntary pre-kindergarten," Ross said. "If parents want to send their children to pre-k, we want them to have that option. We want more children to benefit from the high quality standards that are the basis of First Class. We will work with First Class sites across the state to make sure more children are receiving a quality foundation that will prepare them for success in K-12 school and beyond."
The grants announced Wednesday represent approximately $7.26 million of the additional funding approved for voluntary pre-k. The funding will be divided among 93 sites across the state. Local match funding of 25% will be required. Remaining state funding will be allocated to additional sites based on various needs in the near future.
"While these grants will help us offer voluntary pre-k to many more families, there is still a long way to go before all children have access," Governor Bentley said. "That's why it's important to build on this progress and make sure we're offering this high-quality program to even more families in the years to come."

VAIL, Colorado - The Burton U.S. Open slopestyle competitors know they're in for a challenge in Wednesday's semifinal - the course has a different flow than these riders are used to, and Tuesday's falling snow and flat light means that competition runs aren't likely going to mirror the training runs these riders have had.
The slopestyle course was built over the last couple of weeks by Snow Park Technologies, the company that builds most of the courses for major freestyle skiing and snowboarding events. Vail is the new venue for the Burton U.S. Open after 30 years in Vermont, and with a new venue comes new features.
"It's good, it's different - it's definitely the most creative of the U.S. Open courses so far," said rider Seth Hill. "There's even a section where you go uphill, which I definitely can't say I've ever been on a course where you go uphill, so it's cool - it's definitely unique and it's going to challenge some riders to step out of the box and comfort zone of like your standard two rails and three jumps."
The course starts out with a staircase and rail. The riders slide that rail and then hit what's called a wall ride, putting as much creativity into the run as they want. Then, rider Easton Gilman, from Truckee, Calif., said there's another wall ride followed by another rail section, and then three huge jumps.
"It's pretty fast-paced, pretty large, but it makes for a good course," Gilman said. "It's a step up (from other courses) - the jumps definitely loft you in the air a little higher. It's a great course, I'm happy with it."
The way judges score slopestyle goes like this: Each feature has a point ranking and judges look for amplitude, difficulty and execution. On the Vail slopestyle course, the judges will be scoring up to 10 points each for six features, or sections, that make up the total course.
The men and women were able to practice on the course both Monday and Tuesday. Some riders were positive about the features and the flow of the course, but others had more negative feedback, proving the design of a slopestyle course is a subjective matter.
Based on rider feedback after Monday's practice, Snow Park Technologies made some adjustments to the course Monday evening. Riders still had feedback Tuesday for ways the course could improve, and some expected more changes to be made before the semi final.
"They've definitely tried to be very creative, but some of the aspects need a little work - I don't know, more functionality," said rider Grant Giller, of Evergreen. "It's hard to make it through the whole thing doing solid tricks because there's so many difficult features. The rails are a little funky. ... The jumps are good sized, compared to other jumps. ... Vail and Snow Park Technologies did a pretty decent job, it's just the rails are a little bit hard to work through."
Enni Rukajarvio, of Switzerland, said she loves the first rail on the course. She has one complaint about the course, though - the landings are flat coming out of the big jumps.
"It hurts to land," she said. "It could be better."
The differences in weather conditions from Tuesday's practice to Wednesday's semi final were bigger concerns for some riders. Jordie Karlinski, of Snowmass Village, said Tuesday's snowfall slowed down the first jump and made it pretty hard to clear.
"But the last two (jumps) have good speed, but it's just hard to see - it's pretty flat light today for training, but tomorrow should be sunny and good," Karlinski said, adding that sunshine will be a "game changer."
Karlinski is one of several riders the Vail Daily spoke to who isn't completely in love with the course, but she said it was definitely better for Tuesday's practice based on the rider feedback from Monday and subsequent changes.
"It's maybe not one of my favorite courses, but I'm having fun and trying to make the best out of it," she said. "The rails up top - you're pretty slow into all of them and then you have to go super fast to try and clear jump No. 1, and then you have to slam on the breaks to hit jumps two and three, so it's hard. ... it's a weird flow, but you just have to ride it and get used to it."
As for who to watch in Wednesday's semi final, the Winter X Games podium women - Jamie Anderson (gold), Sarka Pancochova (silver) and Spencer O'Brien (bronze) have all been having strong seasons. Unfortunately, both the slopestyle events at the Burton European Open earlier this month and the Sochi Olympic test event two weeks ago were canceled due to weather, so there aren't any super recent competitions in which to compare this one.
For the men, the Winter X Games podium is also in Vail competing this week: Mark McMorris (gold), Maxence Parrot (silver) and Seppe Smits (bronze). Men's slopestyle finals were canceled at the Burton European Open, but semi final results put Torstein Horgmo, of Evergreen, on top there, followed by McMorris and Sebastien Toutant. Men did not compete in slopestyle at the Sochi test event.

Kallik, Toklo, Lusa, and Yakone head away from the ice toward warmer territories. As they approach the mountains, Toklo is faced with an impossible choice.

A new season approaches. . . .

Here's a tip to horror filmmakers out there, if you want me to post about your film, find a way to incorporate a "pig person" somehow. Sure it's been done by "SAW", but for the life of me I can't help but be creeped out whenever I see a person wearing a pig's head. It's just... NOT RIGHT.
Anyways, this is the trailer for "Necromentia", a truly bizarre looking film that's about to debut at the Cannes Film Festival. It's directed by Pearry Reginald Teo, and the synopsis looks like this:

BULK RATE U.S. POSTAGE PAID ST. IGNATIUS, MONTANA PERMIT NO. 1 59865 VOLUME 8 NUMBER 7 FULL MOON OF THE HUCKLEBERRY AUGUST 1, 1978 —Kerr Dam Negotiations— Negotiations between Tribal Officials, Montana Power Co. and Federal Energy Commission i representatives on July 12th, on the Kerr Dam lease adjustment for the years 1969 to 1979, resulted in an "impasse", according to Council Chairman Thomas "Bearhead" Swaney. The meeting was held at Montana Power Co. offices in Butte and was reported to have been "cordial". There is a possibility that another meeting will be scheduled for further negotiations. If no agreement can be reached, the lease adjustment dispute will have to be settled by the Federal Energy Commission. One provision of the Federal Power Commission license for the 50-year lease between the Tribe and Montana Power, requires that MPC renegotiates it's lease of the Kerr Dam site every ten years. The Federal Power Commission increased the annual rental from $235,000 to $950,000 in a lease adjustment for the 1959 to 1969 10-year period,after the Tribe and Montana Power failed to reach an agreement in the late 1960's. Tribal Officials have remained silent on the sum they are bargaining for on the 1969 through 1979 lease adjustment. Should the settlement include an additional increase, Montana Power would be required to pay the adjusted difference, which would be retroactive to 1969. The Tribe and Montana Power Co. have both filed applications for the Kerr Dam operation after 1980, when the 50-year license issued in 1930, will expire. Remains Councilman Noel Pichette from the St.Ignatius District will remain on the Tribal Council. It was reported that Councilman Pichette tore up his letter of resignation, during the Executive session held just prior to the regular Council meeting on Friday, July 21st. Attention There will be a meeting at the St. Ignatius Community Center on Aug. 7th at 7:00 p.m. to discuss the Indian water and sewage for HUD housing. The public is invited to attend this meeting. -LONG JOURNEY IS OVER- "The Longest Walk" arrived in Washington D.C. on July 15th, after five months from its' starting point in San Francisco on February 11th. Protesting legislation that directly threatens and oppresses Indian rights established in treaties, was the main purpose for the walk. Some issues discussed during workshops were sterilization, genocide, sovereignty, education survival and legislative reviews. After a number of speakers were heard at Lafayette Park, a Native American Manifesto was presented to senators and congressmen. Proceeds from a benefit concert at the Washington D.C. Armory on July 23rd and a 10-round exhibition fight with ex-heavy weight champion Muhammed Ali participating, will be used to help finance the walkers return home. Three thousand walkers have taken an active part in the coast to coast journey.

Going to the DMV in Missouri is a different experience.
"Everybody knows this is the place to come to," says Melissa Rohach after helping her father renew tags at a Belton, Missouri office.
In Missouri, private contractors run the offices. They have to compete for the opportunity.
"It's a bid process," says Belton office manager Shirley Turner.
What goes into it?
"A lot," says Turner.
Every four years the contractors have to convince the state they can do the job. If they have a track record of poor service, they could lose their contract.
"Yes, or not be awarded it again," says Turner.
The state considers things like customer service and hours of operation. And in Missouri, customers have a choice. If they don't like it at one office, they can choose another.
"My theory is these people are paying my paycheck, so treat them like a customer," says Turner.
The offices get a portion of every transaction. The more tags and licenses they process, the more money they make.
Customers tell us it's not perfect, and there can still be waits, but most think it's more efficient than a state operated system.
So is privatization an option for Kansas?
"We're not opposed to it," says Kansas Department of Revenue Secretary Nick Jordan. "We've looked at it, we're continuing to look it, but we have statutory limitations."
Meaning Kansas would have to change the law. But privatization is something lawmakers have discussed and may in the future.
"Once things get stabilized I think privatization is something we need to look at - because frankly, as hard as they try, for whatever reason they don't have the efficiency we see in private industry," says Representative Jim Howell who helped bring a driver's license office to the Derby area.
Representative Jim Ward says DMV concerns are one of the top reasons people call his office. He too, says privatization could be an option in the future.
"I think we could look at it," he says. " I think if a private company can process folks faster for a cost effective way I think it's something we should look at it. But again, I don't think there's a magic bullet here."

Carrie Fisher was hospitalized after a bizarre performance on board a Caribbean cruise ship last week that her rep said was caused by bipolar disorder, according to TMZ.
The website displayed video of Fisher slurring a couple of off-key songs on board the Holland America Eurodam in the Caribbean. She had her dog on stage, which was apparently using the floor as its personal toilet while she sang.
I blame George Lucas, Hayden Christensen and Jar-Jar Binks. Who's with me?
TMZ said there were reports Fisher -- who was featured on the cruise as a "surprise" celebrity guest -- was drunk, but her rep said ,"There was a medical incident related to Carrie Fisher's bipolar disorder. She went to the hospital briefly to adjust her medication and is feeling much better now."
Fisher is a recovering drug addict who has publicly discussed her bipolar disorder. The rep says it's unclear if she will return to perform on the cruise ship.

OAKLAND -- From the older Splash Brother to the younger one, Warriors point guard Stephen Curry is providing support for Klay Thompson during the shooting guard's shooting mini-slump.
Curry and Thompson are currently No. 1 and No. 2 in made 3-pointers and could end up being the first NBA teammates to finish the season that way. But in four games last week, Thompson shot 27.8 percent from the field after going 3 for 20 in the Warriors' 95-90 win at Utah on Friday.
"I just remind him that it's his third year, and he's played a lot of minutes and added obviously some responsibilities on both sides of the floor just to make sure he understands you're going to get heavy-legged a couple times throughout the season," Curry said. "Better push through it. I know our coaches encouraged him as well to just keep shooting. That's what he does."
Thompson not only leads the team averaging a career-high 37.9 minutes per game in starting all 48 games but also leads the NBA with 125.2 miles covered on the court this season, according to SportVU.
"He'll get out of it," center Andrew Bogut said. "We're almost 50 games into the season, and guys' legs are starting to feel like concrete, and it gets tough to make shots sometimes when you're really sore."
Coach Mark Jackson said Thompson's shot was the least of his concerns, with that skill already having made the former first-round pick a "top-five shooting guard in the world."
Jackson noted Thompson, even while struggling on offense, played defense at Utah that contributed to limiting Jazz leading scorer Gordon Hayward to eight points.
"He'll be fine," said Jackson, who later tweeted out videos of Thompson swishing 3-pointers in an evening session at the practice facility. "We put a lot of demand on him defensively, offensively. It's a long year, but he does so much on the floor.
"You go through periods like this, but I get tweets and people saying, 'Put him on the bench.' That's not going to happen."
Thompson, who averages 18.7 points per game, showed with his 3-for-20 performance at Utah resulting in his season-low single-game shooting percentage of 15 percent that he will continue to take shots.
"You always feel like that next shot's going in, and obviously in Utah, he definitely thought it was," Curry said, chuckling. "That's the confidence that I would expect him to have. I'd have it the same way, knowing that if you're doing what you're supposed to be doing off the court to get back rejuvenated for each game that your legs will come back and you'll be able to get back to that level of production you're used to."
All-Star Curry caught fire at Utah, scoring a season-high 44 points. At this stage of his career, Curry has a more consistent routine than other scorers around the league, Bogut indicated.
"Klay's a little different," Bogut said. "Klay's still younger and figuring things out. Klay's a little bit down right now. Obviously he's in a bit of a shooting slump, but we have the utmost confidence that he'll get it back. He puts in the time in practice, and we know and he knows that he's one of the best shooters in the NBA, so that doesn't happen by accident."

MANCHESTER, N.H. (AP) � New Hampshire's community colleges and four-year public campuses are continuing their work to turn out more high-tech graduates.
The University System of New Hampshire, UNH and the Community College System last year set a goal of doubling the number of degrees awarded in science, technology, engineering and math by 2025. On Tuesday, they're hosting a forum in Manchester to explore how they can better engage business leaders.
Speakers include a senior adviser for the National Research Council and several business executives.
Last year, the four University System of New Hampshire schools and the 11 community colleges awarded about 8,200 degrees and certificates, including 1,100 degrees in science, technology, engineering or math.
