MINNEAPOLIS - Adding bird-safe glass to the Minnesota Vikings new stadium could add as much as $60 million in extra costs and delay construction by six months, the chairwoman of the Minnesota Sports Facilities Authority said Friday.Chairwoman Michele Kelm-Helgen gave the estimate in response to complaints that the clear glass planned for the $1 billion downtown Minneapolis stadium would pose a threat to migratory birds, Minnesota Public Radio News (http://bit.ly/1ysOBLI) reported.If you look at Mortenson (Construction), their subcontractors, all of our consultants and staff that are working on this project —and youre extending the whole project from two to six months — youre looking at costs that would be anywhere from $25 (million) to $60 million and potentially higher, Kelm-Helgen said.Kelm-Helgen said Viracon, the stadiums Owatonna-based glass maker, has said changing the glass order to substitute etched or fritted glass would take as much as 23 extra weeks, possibly keep the Vikings in TCF Bank Stadium at the University of Minnesota for an additional season, and divert other events. She said that could affect the rent the Vikings would pay to the stadium authority.So that $10 million might conceivably not come in, Kelm-Helgen said.Kelm-Helgen repeated that stadium construction would proceed as planned. The Vikings are set to play in their new stadium with an inaugural preseason in mid-August 2016. The new stadium will host the 2018 Super Bowl.She also offered more detail on the plans to test a number of film coatings produced by Maplewood-based 3M Co. that might make the glass safer for birds. The University of Minnesota will help monitor the tests. But the authority has made no firm commitment to use the films.Bird advocates have been citing a smaller figure, about $1 million, as the added cost for fritted glass.But stadium officials say that doesnt account for potential lost revenue, such as Vikings game rent, or possible legal action by contractors seeking compensation for indirect costs of lost business due to schedule changes.Im not sure I believe that, said Lisa Venable of Minnesota Citizens for the Protection of Migratory Birds. She said shed like to see proof.___Information from: Minnesota Public Radio News, http://www.mprnews.org Air Max 200 Pas Cher Homme .

MORITZ, Switzerland -- World champion Tessa Worley of France won a World Cup giant slalom on Sunday, racing to the fastest time in both runs. Worley sped down in a combined time of 2 minutes, 7.62 seconds to deny Jessica Lindell-Vikarby of Sweden a second straight GS victory by 0.37 seconds. Tina Maze of Slovenia, the defending overall World Cup champion, matched her best result of the season in third, trailing Worley by 0.79. "Its really a relief," said Worley, who had a best finish of ninth in the first two GS races this season. "This race was very important because I started the season not at all like I hoped." Worley, who won here three years ago, got her eighth career World Cup win -- all in giant slalom. She also won the gold medal in February at the worlds staged in Schladming, Austria. Overall standings leader Lara Gut of Switzerland and Mikaela Shiffrin of the United States were among expected contenders who did not complete the first run. Both slid out on the aggressive snow surface. "It was perfect snow really. Running (bib) No. 1, I was loving every second of it until I fell," said Shiffrin, who was runner-up behind Lindell-Vikarby in the previous GS race at Beaver Creek, Colorado, this month. Lindell-Vikarby leads the discipline standings after three of eight scheduled races..dddddddddddd Zettel is second and Worley moved up to third. Maze showed flashes of her record-setting 2013 form and some emotion when she crossed the line as provisional leader with five racers still to come down. The 30-year-old Slovenian, whose coach and partner Andrea Massi was absent Sunday, did not smile and pounded her chest repeatedly with her right fist. She now has two podium finishes in 10 races but no wins after taking 11 victories last season. "I thought I had to do this day for myself," Maze said through a translator after explaining that Massi was ill Sunday. "I have to manage the race." Maze earned 60 race points and is fifth overall, trailing Gut by 192. Maria Hoefl-Riesch of Germany placed 11th Sunday and moved ahead of Tina Weirather of Liechtenstein into second overall. Weirather, who won Saturdays super-G, also skied out in the morning. Julia Mancuso was the best-placed American in 12th, trailing Worley by 2.59. Megan McJames was 23rd, 3.07 back.
