How deadly are they? As deadly as you want them to be; in the future's Volgan war (When the west goes to war with the fictional Russian-analog "Volgan Republic"), human soldiers are slowly replaced by robots created to fight wars. Slowly enough, in fact, that the ABC Warriors get more than a few kills in before the war ends, at which point they get to kill some more people while - at various times - rebelling against their makers, terraforming Mars, assassinating people for chaos magic rituals and getting involved in other unlikely scrapes.
Who's responsible? The military brains of the western alliance and the Volgans. Both sides came up with their own robot soldiers, giving them artificial intelligence, advanced weaponry and no immediately-obvious off switch.
Last seen... in a robotic mental asylum on Mars, reminiscing about their wartime struggles in 2000AD's current "The Volgan War" storyline.

Lego Star Wars to be celebrated in TV special
'New and fun direction' for sci-fi series
George Lucas has picked up the building blocks again by readying a Lego Star Wars TV special, to broadcast sometime this autumn.
The news was revealed when Comingsoon snapped a banner promoting the show at the Licensing International Expo 2011.
The television special will apparently be created to compliment the ongoing series The Clone Wars, taking Star Wars in a "new and fun direction." Star Wars and Lego, so very new indeed.
Next year, the original film celebrates its 35th anniversary and by then the world will be even more awash with Star Wars trappings.
Die-hards and willing parents will no doubt line up outside cinemas for the remastered 3D version of The Phantom Menace, while many will stay indoors to watch both trilogies on Blu-ray when they hit shelves this autumn.
By that time, the Tatooine Homestead should have been repaired, sparking an influx of fanboy pilgrimages perhaps.
On the gaming front, there's Kinect Star Wars to look forward to, as well as the anticipated MMORPG The Old Republic. The latter teased us all a few weeks ago with a stunning CG intro video.
On Friday, Sony Online announced the original Star Wars MMO, Star Wars Galaxies is to be killed off permanently this December.
According to an interview with Joystiq's MMO blog Massively, president John Smedley said the LucasArts contract was almost up and with The Old Republic set for imminent release, the company felt "it's the right time for the game to end." ®

I've changed the title of this column from "Urban Perspective" to "A Black Perspective", which the column has always been about. "Urban Perspective" was overly broad and reflected neither my intention nor my passion. Despite the old title, this space has unapologetically focused on how education, politics, economics and leadership issues impact the Black community and it will continue to do so.
The first barrage of obscene personal and political attacks on President Barack Obama came from Tea Party and conservative Republicans. Since then, there has been a growing feeling in the Black community, not to throw the President under the bus, but to routinely critique and when necessary, criticize and hold him accountable on key domestic and foreign relations decisions. No president should be given a free pass and despite the new calls for transparency, there is still much reluctance among Black elected officials and Black leadership in general, to hold this president accountable.
Actually, many Blacks apparently still feel that challenging Obama's decisions is sacrilegious and still consider him an icon above anything even remotely smacking of criticism. Slowly, however, there is growing concern about his decisions, as well there should be. But Blacks should be just as concerned about ineffective Black leadership generally.
Some traditional leaders, including civil rights leaders, are questioning Obama's policies and actions, albeit gently. For example, even National Urban League president, Marc Morial has challenged the President to deal specifically, and in more detail, with Black concerns. Professor Cornel West has, for some time, urged Blacks to give informed "critical support" to the President. Now, though supportive of him, many Black folks are saying people have a right, and even a responsibility, to unapologetically call on him to address their specific concerns. The same applies to Black leaders who often conveniently sidestep their chief responsibility which is to stakeholders, not self-serving personal agendas.
After the 1960s, a widespread assumption was that electing Blacks to political office would automatically lead to an improved quality of life for Black people. However, as has long been pointed out, "Simply replacing white faces with black faces in old places does not translate into social justice and social change." While many Black elected officials do honor their pledge to represent constituents' interest, too many continue to mirror the dominant leadership model that is based primarily on individualism and materialism. And unfortunately, the dictum, "Blacks have no permanent friends, no permanent enemies, just permanent interests," remains largely rhetoric not reality.
Greater accountability and effective Black strategic alternatives go hand-in-hand. However, since the civil rights era, efforts to build a "Black agenda" have not being sustained and the Black community's fundamental needs and concerns remain largely unmet. There's been some progress, such as a significant increase in the number of Black elected officials and greater access, albeit insufficient, to better housing, employment and higher education. Still, inner cities remain neglected; violence and hopelessness seem etched in the landscape, schools harm more than educate Black children and justice remains scarcely more than symbolic.
The preamble to the National Black Agenda, adopted in Gary, Indiana in 1972, asserted "Our cities are crime-haunted dying grounds. Huge sectors of our youth face prominent unemployment………Neither the courts nor prisons contribute anything resembling justice or reformation and the schools are unwilling or unable to educate our children for the real world of our struggles." Sound familiar?
In some respects, things are worse today than forty years ago-damning testimony to ongoing racism and a complex, complicit indifference by Black leaders themselves. And these days, the divide between middle-class and poorer Blacks is greater than ever in history which aggravates an already strained relationship that ensures fewer and fewer Blacks will be actively involved in efforts for real change—an ominous warning for an even more challenging future requiring greater unity.
Far too many Blacks believed Obama's presidency signaled problems heretofore intractable would be solved. Of course, this was, and is, a pipe dream. Although the President obviously represented a sea change from George W. Bush, he never had a magic bullet and unless Blacks hold him and themselves accountable for addressing their issues, they will continue to see very little from his administration.
A general absence of Black leadership accountability in California is evident at both the state and local levels. In Los Angeles, for example, immigration and education are key issues that have major public policy and human rights implications. Yet, they are not a top priority for local Black elected officials whose collective silence is barely less than an abomination. These officials appear oblivious to the fact that Los Angeles also has Black immigrants whose needs are not addressed in a city that may be more diversified and has more immigrants—documented and undocumented—than any city in the nation.
What are Black leadership's strategies to deal with the urgency of current problems? Clearly, there is no single "Black agenda," but Black people must demand effective, committed and ethical leadership as an alternative to current leadership models that do not benefit them. The acquiescence and silence of Black leadership- and the Black community itself- continues to underscore the need for greater unity and accountability indispensable for survival and future success.


text: Thursday, June 02, 2011 Proposed Rule Aims to Increase Accounting Requirement for Covered Entities On Tuesday, the Department of Health and Human Services issued a proposed rule to modify the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act's (HIPAA) privacy rule standard for accounting of disclosures of protected health information. Under the proposal, patients could request an access report that would document the particular entities who electronically accessed and viewed their protected health information. Although covered entities that currently required by the HIPAA security rule to track access to electronic protected health information, they are not required to share this information with patients. The purpose of these modifications is, in part, to implement the statutory requirement under the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act that requires covered entities and business associates to account for disclosures of protected health information to carry out treatment, payment, and health care operations if such disclosures are through an electronic health record. Comments are due on the proposal August 1. APTA offers informational resources for members to learn about compliance with HIPAA regulations.

It's 1989 and things are lookin' up... side-down.
The final year of junior high was heavy for my 8th grade class at Live Oak Waldorf School.
We'd bonded unusually deep; our eccentric education, overseen by the same, stern woman annually and paid for by unconventional, often dysfunctional parents, made us peers not just of age and fads, but in isolation: we weren't represented in popular culture – there weren't Cosby kids too poor to afford clothes or dental work; INXS wasn't singing about the world of antiquity, accompanied by recorder ensemble; the cast on Facts of Life never gathered in a bi-monthly circle to share from their hearts until everyone wept and atoned and affirmed admiration for each other – then broke for their next class on American folk dancing.
"I'm afraid being raised without an understanding of more mainstream, cultural norms
is going to handicap my trajectory in life, Tootie."
The final months of that semester were strange; our lessons became devoted to one, final project: a run of Shakespeare's As You Like It, barely edited, performed for the public by either of two casts, each featuring the same students in alternate roles.
It was our teacher's idea this would avoid certain students having all the glory of lead parts. While well-intended, it instead ensured that shier kids who'd have preferred to skip the spotlight, couldn't; it meant everyone had two characters to memorize – quite a task, considering this was most pupils' introduction to iambic pentameter – and made what would have been the natural, unfriendly phenomena of critical comparison between kids' acting skills even more impossible to avoid.

1849 $1 MS67 Certification #21572868, PCGS #6936
Owner's Comments
The Fairfield specimen. This is without a doubt the finest no motto dollar from the first two decades of coinage. Utterly flawless surfaces are graced by satiny luster and lovely light original toning.
Expert Comments
Ron Guth
Like most of the Seated Liberty Dollar dates in the 1840's, the 1849 is semi-scarce in all grades and tough in Mint State. Compared to the overall populations of the era, the 1849 is comparable in rarity to the 1840 and 1841, but it is not as rare as the 1844 and 1845, nor is it anywhere near as common as the 1842, 1843, 1846, and 1847. In Mint State, the 1849 is known by at least 75,and possibly 100, different examples, most of which are MS61 to MS64. Gems are exceedingly rare, but the 1849 is graced with one truly remarkable PCGS MS67 example, making it one of only two dates in the series with a coin in that grade.
Q. David BowersThe following narrative, with minor editing, is from my "Silver Dollars & Trade Dollars of the United States: A Complete Encyclopedia" (Wolfeboro, NH: Bowers and Merena Galleries, Inc., 1993).
Coinage Context
Circulating issue: The year 1849 is the last in which Liberty Seated silver dollars were made in quantity at the Philadelphia Mint and also the last in which virtually the entire production was placed into circulation at the time. However, there are different opinions in the historical record, and it may be the case that large numbers of dollars of this date were exported (see citation on this subject under Coinage Context, 1848).
Gold vs. silver (once again): Gold! Gold! Gold! Newspapers of 1849 carried little other national news. As metal was extracted from placers (streams and loose soil) and mines, gold began to become common on world markets, and the ratio of the value of gold to silver began to slide from the statutory 16 to 1, to 15.45 to 1 early in 1851. As this trend continued, silver coins were withdrawn from circulation, hoarded and exported. Many were later melted as they were worth more than face value as bullion.
In 1849 Congress authorized the production of two new denominations, the $20 gold (officially, double eagle) and the diminutive gold dollar. Gold dollars were minted in quantity during the year, but no $20 pieces were made for circulation until 1850.
It was expected that gold dollars, made in large numbers, would help fill in when silver coins were in short supply (this demand dropped after 1853 when silver coins once more became available in the marketplace). From this point, the silver dollar became a whipping boy for certain Mint officials, who began to call for its discontinuation. It was not logical, they stated, to have two metal dollars, one (silver) worth more than the other (gold).
Numismatic Information
Circulated grades: Although this date has approximately the same mintage as the 1840, circulated examples are seen on the market more frequently.
Mint State grades: The 1849 silver dollar is quite elusive in Mint State. I have handled very few of this date over the years. I suspect that it may be somewhat rarer than the numbers I give below in the Summary of Characteristics, although the population data from certification services do not reflect this. At least one person who reviewed this manuscript considered the 1849 to be among the easier dates of the 1840s to find in Mint State grade. However, in 1982, Bruce Amspacher stated that he knew of only three specimens that could be called MS-65, a grade that today would be equal to MS-63 or so. One of these coins, appearing in February 1978 in the Bowers and Ruddy Galleries auction of the Fairfield Collection, was by June 1992 graded MS-66 by PCGS.(Article, "Liberty Seated Dollars," in the Monthly Summary, Coin Dealer Newsletter, July-August, 1982. Also, notes from Bruce Amspacher to the author, received in June 1992.) Chris Napolitano commented as follows: (Letter to the author, June 26, 1992.) "Very tough in MS-63 or better. This date is underpriced in Coin World 'Trends,' and Mint State coins are very difficult to locate."
Often several people describing a numismatic situation reminds one of the old verses about the six blind men describing an elephant. One felt the tail and said the elephant was like a rope. Another, who touched the trunk, said the beast was like a hose. Another, touching a leg, believed it was like a tree, while still another blind man, feeling the elephant's side, thought the animal was like a wall. Similarly, opinions concerning the availability of a given coin, such as a Liberty Seated dollar in Mint State, are apt to vary from one person to another. Earlier, I cited a study which suggested that Mint State 1845 dollars were common, while I consider them to be rare, etc.
Circulation strikes:
1. Normal Date: Breen-5441. Circulation strikes have not been studied in detail. Some early impressions have "chin whiskers," or die file marks extending below the chin, a feature also seen on certain other dates, notably 1853. A few have the reverse die rotated 15° to the right of normal alignment.
Dies prepared: Obverse: Unknown; Reverse: Unknown
Circulation strike mintage: 62,600; Delivery figures by month: January: 17,000; March: 14,000; May: 11,000; August: 2,000; October: 9,000; December: 9,600.
Estimated quantity melted: Unknown
Characteristics of striking: Striking varies; some are well struck and others show local weakness (particularly at the eagle's neck immediately above the shield and at the eagle's dexter leg and/or at the stars on the right obverse). Some circulation strikes, even those with areas of light striking, have knife-rims, partial on the obverse, nearly full on the reverse, and prooflike surface on both sides.
Known hoards of Mint State coins: None
Although this issue is readily available in worn grades, in Mint State it is very rare.
Additional Information
The Mint in 1849
At the Mint in 1849, the usual speed of striking coins was as follows: for silver dollars and half dollars, 60 pieces per minute; 75 per minute for the quarter dollar; 90 for the dime and half dime. (Information from The Bankers' Magazine, collected volume June 1848 through June 1849, p. 556.)
The Mint had about 50 employees. It was calculated that if the Mint were to operate at its maximum capacity and to coin 12 million dollars annually, half in gold and half in silver, with a standard proportion of distribution throughout the denominations, then it cost the government $106,000 to do this. More employees would be needed, however.

It's over...
It's over...
double battery density, half the price and it truly over.
I took delivery of my car on Saturday. I'm an older guy and have bought lots of cars. Unlike most people, I actually enjoyed going into a dealer and haggling over price. I needed to get a car AND a deal. The Tesla experience was a "yes, Master" deal. They told me what they wanted and I said, "yes, Master." No deals, no bargaining. A very egalitarian sales process. There's a price and if you want one, you pay it. Not my style, but I wanted the car and bit the bullet.
When I picked up my car I was told there was a slight fan motor hum and it couldn't be fixed at the factory on Saturday. It's a slight noise which I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't been told. So here I am 400 miles from home with a $90,000 "new" car that's not working right. Don't care. I drove off and got a call 10 minutes later that they forgot to put the registration in the car. Don't care. The connector cord didn't have the stainless steel cover because they're out of them. Don't care.
I get 4 car magazines. I'm letting the subscriptions lapse. Don't care. I wanted a Bentley Convertible or a Ferrari. I'm not going to get one. Don't care. I have an Audi TT roadster. I am selling my Mercedes S and thought I'd keep the TT. I'll be selling it. Don't care.
In short, I'm only thinking about the model X which I've put in a reservation for. I can honestly say I wouldn't trade this car for any other car, or anything. Live with less food, clothes, rent. Get one. Get one for your wife. Smile all day.
There's not enough "S"'s to go around - yet. I am so glad so few know about them - so far. Gives me my chance to get mine. Let the rest of the world learn - later. More power to Tesla and Elon. Yay Team!
@ Stark
You were struck by lightning when you realised: "it's over". And that is correct. We DO have another option to choose from, and a damn good one it is. We CAN get rid of our oil addiction. We CAN and we WILL be free from oil consumption. That is the revolution.
A funny comparison that just came to me: "Elon Musk wants to free us (the people) from the bad oil-industry". That can be compared with: "Neo (Mr. Anderson) from the Matrix movie, who wanted to free the people from the machines".
@info: That is one of the best passages I've read on this forum in a long time! Even if what you wrote makes the pain of waiting until the end of 2013 (for a UK Model S) even harder to bear.
@info, you post reminded me of the Honey Badger YouTube video with all the, "Don't Care" references... :)
Amen. I got my Model S 10 days ago. I drove my wife's car last night. It was the first time I had driven an ICE since delivery. I felt like I was a cave man.
Well said, info@richardpol! And, if you'll excuse a little bit of forward-thinking...I can't wait until 2020(ish), and we're all still on here, arguing/debating about which Tesla to get, the latest S, or the A, B, C, or X, Y, Z! I can't wait until Tesla has a whole stable of cars, one to satisfy anyone's particular needs and desires :)
But in the mean time...I am perfectly content with my Model S, quirks and all...Because at the end of the day, like you said: I'd rather have my quirky Model S than anything else out there...
@stark/@richardpol - great posts. And so true.
@Stark, @Richard +1
@Stark ... I have the exact feelings. The other day, I said to my wife, "Honey, we should go and buy a car today". She asked me, "Which one?". And, I just couldn't think of any that came anywhere close to the Model S. I went blank; just nothing came to my mind.
I love Mercedes and have been a big fan of the 3-pointed star cars ever since I was 10. But, even that love and adoration doesn't make we want to forgo, or even supplement, my Model S with a Mercedes.
By, the way, we still don't have our Model S yet. We will have that early next month.
~ Prash.
2 weeks in and we'll never go back except to buy a Model X maybe. I am having a hard time even being nice when people who don't understand and compare my car with BMWs and Mercedes...will never go back...
@info - Live with less food, clothes, rent. Get one. Get one for your wife. Smile all day.
That's exactly what we're planning on doing. Except for the getting one for the wife part. She gets our LEAF. Maybe when the GenIII comes out we'll replace that as well.
Feb - Mar delivery! Can't wait...
To continue with the don't cares...
The car carrier driver lowered a ramp on my car.....don't care they fixed it and I got my S
I'm driving on expired temp tags cause my paperwork is messed up......don't care I can out run the cops :0)
Can't open the front passenger side door from the outside.....don't care they can sit in back
I can't get it warm around the accelerator....don't care I'll wear an extra sock on my driving foot
Starting to get wear on my B pillar....don't care just create an egress profile
Ok, I think I have the bug, because I wouldn't put up with half this stuff in an ICE.
We took delivery on 2/2...they call it the "Tesla Smile" for a reason, when you drive it, you can't wipe the smile off your face.
Could not agree more-- one month into ownership-- never a hint of "buyers remorse". I'm enjoying the daily commute. I take the long way home from work. Never going back. Great posts folks! Great car Tesla!
A different perspective: have been procrastinating getting new car for years as they all are 100y old technology with little improvement, be it any of the German luxury sedans, Lexus, Infiniti or any of those, only some tweaks with style and slight improvement in performance.
Stumbled upon the S last summer and was immediately blown away. The long search for a truly interesting car was over. Radical improvement in multiple segments in technology unlike practically any make in recent memory. Being the first truly cool EV was just the starting point. Some of the industry-firsts really show how lame the other companies have been.
Waiting for my delivery within the next few days..
Just look at the stock chart…also "over" for the TSLA shorts :)
Wanted to use the shares to purchase the car. Took delivery of the car and somehow manage to hold the shares. "Pigs get sluttered " they say...hoink, hoink!
April 2011;reserved MS. F1 Silverstone 2011; Hamilton slows to save gas. I turn off TV and give up F1. Haven't looked back. F1 is an anachronism. I have been to F1 races. I wrenched on F5000 cars but gas cars are over! They are dead cars running. They just haven't fallen over yet.
Same for me! But agree with all. Models s is so far advanced! No regrets at all.
Going into more debt than I ever have, "just to purchase a car" in my entire life ..... guess what? .... Don't Care !
I pulled into the doctors' parking lot today and parked next to an Aston Martin. Guy comes right up to me asking "Is that a Tesla? It is so beautiful!" An Aston is not common there, but it didn't stand out next to the Tesla, and I don't envy them anymore. I would rather have my S, and don't ever see myself buying an ICE again. It's over.
sluttered? slaughtered? You have a private spelling dictionary, it seems.
@ Brian H,
Re. July10; Come on, don't such a troll!
"Sluttered" was just too much. Unless it's slaughter-house slang I've never heard of! >:(
@Brian H
Problem is that your plog up this forum with your criticism of people that make up words.
Actually, I love made-up words. If it's deliberate and clever. The opposite of that -- not so much.
The proper phrase is "Pigs get electrified."
Or it might be "Pigs get electrocuted."
This is my favorite thread ever. @stark and @info.richard, you guys are right on! We understand EACTLY how you feel! Great job putting it into words.
The origin of EST. Some pigs survive.
@brian h, you have trouble staying on topic, it seems
Oops! That was supposed to go in the "test" thread. Don't know how it got here.
No, wrong. I was responding to "Pigs get electrocuted." Sorry if my response baffles you. Ask nicely and I'll explain.
@Brian H
If I ask nicely, could you pretty please stop cluttering all threads with your useless 1-line "jokes" and spelling police work? Thank you so much.
the "jokes" are usually making pertinent points. Sod off.
@Brian - agree with Nicu. Many of your comments are useful, but there doesn't seem to be any filter. You post less-than-useful one liners to so many threads yours is often the only 'new' post and I've trained myself to skip through those threads as soon as I see that the only new post is yours.
Definitely appreciate you on the forum, but a bit of filtering would be welcome. Yours in good faith, Nick.
@brian h, actually I got your lame-o 2/8 post
My comment was toward your spelling flab, agreed Nicu

How to help 'stressed out' banks
By Simon Goldsmith, Head of Risk Solutions, SAS UK & Ireland
The plans for tougher, more robust stress tests recently laid out by Mark Carney, Governor of the Bank of England, is a further sign that the Wild West days are over. The banking industry and regulators have tightened up the approach to risk, aiming to shift the financial system to one that absorbs rather than amplifies shocks. But meeting the new tests is proving stressful for the banks themselves.
Every year it seems regulators increase their demands – with more complex scenarios, enhanced governance requirements and more scrutiny of results – leaving banks concerned that their current processes and systems are no longer adequate.
This year's tests take into account 120 market variables and assess the ability of large banks to withstand major external shocks, such as a significant downturn in China, a contraction in the Eurozone, and a fall in UK interest rates to zero. One bank I've been speaking with has created a million data segments for stress testing purposes alone.
The problem facing many banks is making sure they have sufficient data quality systems in place to get sensible answers from all this data. Most established banks are not in a position to completely replace their IT systems. Instead, they need help to develop a plan that can get them to where they need to be in the short term based on where they are now. Fundamentally, for the time being at least, it's about compliance. Banks then hope to be in a position to generate longer-term business value from having a clearer understanding of risk exposure right across the business, but this will require reviews and updates to the IT architecture over a period of years.
For now, banks need to be able to re-engineer and upgrade their stress testing processes to meet regulatory demands. Specific elements include:
- Enhanced capture and validation of finance and risk data by the stress testing process.
- Establishing rigorous governance and control over data and models.
- Accelerating analysis and validation of stress testing results using automated checks, workflow and visual analytics.
For more insight into how banks can tackle the growing regulatory burden, download our white paper, Firmwide Scenario Analysis and Stress Testing.
With more data points, scenarios and considerations, the 2015 stress tests will undoubtedly be more robust than before. This is why financial institutions are beginning to use sophisticated model management factories, scenario testing engines and governance models to help them. It's now possible to reduce the manual effort required to appropriately inventory, manage, document, communicate, monitor change, and audit all of a bank's models – as well as easily share information for effective top-down model risk reporting. And it's possible to ease the burden of regulatory reporting in particular by using solutions that pre-populate regulatory documents from a single-source data repository.

(CNN) -- He's the king of cool but U.S. snowboard star Shaun White won't be reigning supreme over the daunting new slopestyle event at Sochi 2014.
The double Olympic champion, who had been nursing a wrist injury, withdrew Wednesday just a day after admitting the course presented an "intimidating" challenge.
Sochi organizers have faced fierce criticism over the layout at the Rosa Khutor Extreme Park, with competitors claiming that it is too dangerous to host the event -- which is making its Winter Games debut.
And White's withdrawal will do little to deflect that criticism, even if the athlete stopped short of giving a specific reason for his decision.
"After much deliberation with my team, I have made the decision to focus solely on trying to bring home the third straight gold medal in halfpipe for Team USA," he said in a statement.
"The difficult decision to forgo slopestyle is not one I take lightly as I know how much effort everyone has put into holding the slopestyle event for the first time in Olympic history, a history I had planned on being part of."
Interactive: 10 to watch at Sochi
Two snowboarders have already suffered injuries while practicing on the course, which is made up of rails, quarterpipes and jumps.
Norway's X-Games champion Torstein Horgmo -- widely considered a favorite for gold -- suffered a broken collarbone while Finnish snowboarder Marika Enne was carried away on a stretcher after hitting her head following a fall.
"It's intimidating," White told reporters when asked about the course Tuesday.
"You know any time you show up to a course you have to learn the speed, the distance from the jumps and what the rails are like. It's been a challenge.
"Any time you step out on a course there's a certain amount of danger, there's a certain element of risk you put yourself in for.
"Maybe this course might have a little bit more than others, but we're trying to figure it out. We're trying to get through the course, be safe and have a great Olympics."

Digger Tuesday...Something "Especial"
What happened to Digger Monday? I've been super busy. Now back to our regularly scheduled program.
Remember Arlen's Especial? After finishing the show circuits and being street ridden for awhile, Arlen yanked the motor and sold it. Interestingly enough, the powerplant that was removed was used in Ness-tique. Anyway, Ed Sorenson picked up the pieces with the help of Barry Cooney and got this killer digger back on the road. Jim Davis and Arlen built the frame. It uses rubber blocks on either side of the swingarm center for suspension. It works very similar to a draft gear on a railroad car, and allowed for 2" of travel in both directions. Bob Monroe fabbed the oil and gas tanks. Of course, the leaf was done by the best there ever was, Jeff McCann.
