Bedford Postmaster Denise Dewitt has issued a crime alert notice.
A number of postal customers have been receiving bogus emails regarding a package allegedly sent through the postal service. When the email recipient opens the email it activates a virus in their computer.
"We would like to warn people not to open the link," Dewitt said. "The post office does not send notices of packages, nor do we charge for holding packages."
Scott Burrows of the Trimble County Board of Education joined more than 5,000 school board and state school boards association leaders, administrators and other education leaders in attending the 2012 National School Boards Association's Annual Conference that took place April 21-23 in Boston, Mass.
FRANKFORT, Ky.--Some survivors of the severe storms and tornadoes that struck Kentucky Feb. 29 through March 3 may not have registered with the Federal Emergency Management Agency for assistance because of misconceptions or lack of accurate information.
With the deadline to register for federal assistance less than two weeks away on May 7, it's important that all survivors who suffered damage in the disaster register as soon as possible.
Here are some examples of misconceptions and misinformation:
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - The Kentucky State Police Driver Testing Branch will begin using a new rider skills test for motorcycle operator's license applicants on May 1. Developed by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation, the new test is designed to better determine if operators possess sufficient safety skills for riding motorcycles in traffic.
"Bob's Bunch Battling ALS" will hold a fundraiser to raise funds for ALS research at the Morgan Community Center in Bedford on Saturday, April 14, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The event was originally scheduled for March 3 but the tornado that struck the Milton Fire Station No. 2 on the day before forced the cancellation of that event.
Saturday's event is being held to bring continued awareness to the local region about Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, commonly known as "Lou Gehrig's disease."
The Kentucky Agricultural Development Board, chaired by Governor Steve Beshear, reminds producers of the availability of $2 million in Kentucky Agricultural Development Funds for on-farm energy efficiency or production projects. Application and guidelines for the KADB's new On-farm Energy Efficiency & Production Incentives Program are available online at ag-energy.ky.gov.
FRANKFORT, Ky. - Disaster recovery officials urge recipients of federal grants to use the money wisely and to keep receipts and other documentation for at least three years as proof the funds were spent as intended.
Upon releasing the funds by direct deposit or check, the Federal Emergency Management Agency sent every recipient a letter providing important information about the grant and outlining how the money can be spent.

"Newsboys" announce Ottumwa stop
By Nick Davis, August 04, 2015
On the heels of the "We Believe…God's Not Dead" 2015 Spring Tour, which saw over 30 sellouts across the country, best-selling GRAMMY®-nominated mega group Newsboys will hit the road again this fall to continue the popular tour, it was announced today. Featuring Dove Award-nominated FairTrade Services pop/rock band Hawk Nelson, along with special guest GRAMMY®-nominated Gotee singer/songwriter Ryan Stevenson, Newsboys' "We Believe God's Not Dead" 2015 Fall Tour is slated to visit more than 40 cities. Presented by Food For The Hungry, the tour will make a stop in Ottumwa Iowa, on Saturday, November 14, 2015 at the Bridge View Center. Renowned for their high-energy live performances, Newsboys will once again showcase a string of iconic hits during the tour, including their longest running #1 single to date, "We Believe." Garnering a K-LOVE Fan Award earlier this week for Song of the Year, "We Believe" was also nominated for a 2015 Billboard Music Award and is the theme song for Pure Flix's recent film, "Do You Believe?"
All tickets to Newsboys are reserved seats and are ON SALE NOW. Church groups are urged to buy early to ensure great seats and to get blocks of seats all in one section. Tickets can be purchased at the Bridge View Center box office (M-F, 9a-5p), online at www.ticketmaster.com, charge by phone at 1-800-745-3000, and at any Ticketmaster outlet. Ticket prices range from $29, $35, and $45, also available is a VIP package at $64, $70, and $84, which includes an exclusive meet and greet.
Comprised of lead vocalist Michael Tait, Jody Davis (guitar), Jeff Frankenstein (keys) and Duncan Phillips (drums), Newsboys have sold more than 8 million units, amassing eight Gold® certifications, 33 #1 radio hits, four GRAMMY® nominations and multiple Dove Awards. "God's Not Dead," Newsboys' chart-topping, Platinum®-certified single, inspired Pure Flix's 2014 hit film of the same name. The band's latest recording and debut collection of hymns, Hallelujah for the Cross, released last fall and features the legendary group's take on nine classics and one new selection.
Powerhouse pop rock band Hawk Nelson has won the hearts of thousands since its debut release in 2004. Hawk Nelson released their new studio albumDiamonds (FairTrade Services) in March to much media praise and acclaim. The album's first radio single, "Drops In The Ocean," is currently No.1 on the Billboard Christian AC Indicator chart—the band's first time atop any Christian adult contemporary chart. In addition, the song spent four weeks at No.1 on the Billboard Christian Hot AC/CHR chart. Hawk Nelson has released seven studio projects and has been awarded two Canadian GMA awards and multiple GMA Dove Award nominations, as well as a JUNO nomination. The band's music has been featured on NBC, MTV, WB, WGN, KTLA, Nickelodeon and the NFL Network. Hawk Nelson is Jonathan Steingard (vocals, guitar), Daniel Biro (bass), Micah Kuiper (guitar) and David Niacaris (drums).
Ryan Stevenson's latest single, "Not Forgotten" (feat. TobyMac), topped Billboard's Christian Hot AC/CHR chart for two consecutive weeks earlier this year, marking his first #1 as an artist and second as a writer. He co-penned TobyMac's "Speak Life" and was nominated for a 2014 GRAMMY® Award for the multi-week chart-topper, a song Stevenson also recorded on his Gotee debut, Holding Nothing Back EP. He has toured with TobyMac and Audio Adrenaline, among other artists, and was featured on Air1 Radio's Positive Hits Tour last year. Stevenson's first full-length Gotee recording is slated to bow this fall.
"We are excited to be working with First Church of the Open Bible and other organizations to bring Newsboys – one of the top touring Christian shows in the country – into the Bridge View Center and our Ottumwa and SE Iowa community. It's a personal goal of mine and I believe a great benefit to Bridge View Center and our community to host one national touring Christian show each year, and Newsboys is the perfect concert in 2015 to hopefully start a great tradition of Christian entertainment at the Bridge View Center," noted Scott Hallgren, Executive Director for VenuWorks at Bridge View Center.
"VenuWorks is America's emerging leader in venue management, providing customized solutions for arenas, theatres and convention centers throughout the country, with management services that include operations, catering, concessions, along with the booking and marketing of sports and entertainment events."

The NFL is becoming more and more of a passing league; statistics bear this theory out, as numbers continue to rise for quarterbacks and receivers, while dropping for running backs. Thus, it's becoming increasingly important to have skill position players who can excel in this brand of football.
Obviously, the quarterback is the most vital person on the roster. Without one, a team has no chance, which is why even marginal signal callers are getting $100 million contracts.
But the guys catching the football are also important. The right group of receivers – wideouts and tight ends – can make a QB's job a whole lot easier by making tough catches, producing yards after the ball is in their hands and getting open.
With that notion in mind, the editors at cover32 gathered to assemble this week's Power Rankings, rating each NFL team's receiving corps from one to 32. Here are the results:
1. Chicago Bears – On the outside, the Bears boast perhaps the game's best wide receiver tandem in Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery. And Martellus Bennett has blossomed into an elite pass-catching tight end. Jay Cutler has a lot to work with.
2. Detroit Lions – When a team boasts the best wide receiver in the NFL, a guy who can change the complexion of a game all by himself, they'll score well. Put Golden Tate and rookie Eric Ebron with Calvin Johnson and it's a loaded roster.
3. Denver Broncos – Demaryius Thomas is an elite receiver, Wes Welker can still get it done in the slot and Emmanuel Sanders gives the Broncos a deep threat. Plus, tight end Julius Thomas was last season's breakout star.
4. San Francisco 49ers – Sorry, Richard Sherman, but your assessment of the Niners receivers is way off. Michael Crabtree, Anquan Boldin and newcomer Stevie Johnson are electric, while Vernon Davis is a top-three tight end in all of football.
5. Indianapolis Colts – When it comes to a trio of wide receivers, Andrew Luck has one of the best in the league to work with, assuming Reggie Wayne bounces back from his injury. T.Y. Hilton is a rising star, while Hakeem Nicks is a good addition.
6. Green Bay Packers – Free agency and injuries have depleted the Packers once-loaded receiving corps, but they still boast two very good weapons for Aaron Rodgers in wideouts Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb.
7. Dallas Cowboys – Yes, Dez Bryant is a bit of a head case, but the guy is über-talented, in the conversation for the best receiver in the NFL. The Cowboys could use more alongside him, although tight end Jason Witten is still going strong.
8. New Orleans Saints – Jimmy Graham is the best pass-catching tight end in football, which helps Drew Brees a ton. Marques Colston is their best wideout, although he's fading. Perhaps rookie Brandin Cooks can provide a spark.
9. Atlanta Falcons – The guys hauling in passes from Matt Ryan take a little bit of a step backwards this year, due to the retirement of tight end Tony Gonzalez and the fact that Julio Jones isn't sure when he'll be back from a broken foot.
10. Cincinnati Bengals – A.J. Green is among the best wideouts in the NFL, which boasts the Bengals overall score. Alongside him, it's just a bunch of guys, while tight end Jermaine Gresham seemed to regress a bit last year.
11. New York Giants – Despite a down year in 2013, Victor Cruz is still an elite receiver. Rueben Randle, Mario Manningham and rookie Odell Beckham, Jr. can be solid contributors, as well. But the Giants need some playmaking ability at tight end.
12. Philadelphia Eagles – Losing Desean Jackson certainly hurt, but Jeremy Maclin can fill that void if healthy. Riley Cooper had a breakout year in 2013, while the tight end duo of Brent Celek and Zach Ertz gives Nick Foles an interesting dynamic.
13. Baltimore Ravens – The Ravens have an underrated crew, which improved this offseason with the signing of veteran Steve Smith. Torrey Smith has blazing speed, Jacoby Jones can make big plays and tight end Dennis Pitta is a solid safety valve.
14. Miami Dolphins – Mike Wallace was somewhat disappointing during his first year in Miami, but he's a game breaker. Brian Hartline is a steady, possession guy. And Charles Clay emerged as a bona fide star at tight end. It's a good group.
15. Jacksonville Jaguars – There's more to work with in Jacksonville than people think, as wideouts Ace Sanders and Cecil Shorts are decent, as is tight end Marcedes Lewis. Throw in rookies Marqise Lee and Allen Robinson and it's a solid group.
16. Cleveland Browns – The Browns could be feast or famine, depending on what ultimately happens with Josh Gordon. He and tight end Jordan Cameron are two bright, young talents. But if Gordon is suspended, it's slim pickings in Cleveland.

Renewable Energy Flex Fuel Options Discussed in Missouri
To "flex" or not, that is a good question. I own a flexible fuel vehicle and have for several years and as a Government Agency, Rural Development has government owned vehicles that accommodate flexible fuel. As State Director, I travel throughout Missouri and even though I have the appropriate vehicle and even though there is an adequate supply of renewable fuels, there is an inadequate number of service stations that have flexible fuel pumps. Compound this with the desire to reduce our dependence on foreign oil and make our nation more environmentally clean, you can imagine my reaction when Rural Development announced a program as part of the solution to address these issues.
There was excitement in Jefferson City, Missouri's State Capitol, when Judith Canales, Administrator for USDA Rural Development Rural Business-Cooperative Programs kicked off Rural Development's Rural Energy for America Program (REAP) workshop on flex-fuel options. Canales informed the 45 people in attendance that grants are available to provide fuel station owners with incentives to install flexible fuel pumps that will offer Americans more renewable energy options.

I've been in China for more than 7 months now. I can't believe that much time has already passed! Right now, the gears are turning in my mind... what is it that I want to put my time and energy into. I think that this blog and my Sun Scholars program is definitely on the list. So here I am... sitting in a Starbucks with my laptop... sipping a coffee and working away while my children are at school.
Yes... I'm in China!
There may be some changes to come... but I promise that they will be awesome ones! I'm just trying to decide what those changes might be... should be.
AND, if you have any suggestions for me, please! I would LOVE your feedback!
Check out my favorites from last week's party!

Creating Nanomaterials is an interactive, multimedia component of the Intro to Nanotechnology exhibit package that demonstrates how scientists are using the ability of molecules to self-assemble to create consumer goods with surprising properties. Visitors place and observe "molecules" on an air hockey table. When the air hockey table is activated, the "molecules" hover and assemble into patterns all by themselves—just like molecules in nanomaterials.
- Nanometer-sized things are very small, and often behave differently than larger things do.
- Scientists and engineers have formed the interdisciplinary field of nanotechnology by investigating properties and manipulating matter at the nanoscale.
NISE Network products are developed through an iterative collaborative process that includes scientific review, peer review, and visitor evaluation in accordance with an inclusive audiences approach.

First graders learn basic math with beads and blocks
Beads and blocks are replacing work sheets for first graders learning math basics at Bayfield Early Primary School.
First grader Alex Larson, son of Kami and Mike Larson, demonstrated his skills for the school board on April 15, assisted by teacher Joey Lowe. Alex had yellow beads in groups of four that he hooked together into a chain. He also had a cube made of groups of four beads, 16 on each side, 64 total.
Math coach Carolyn Striker said the beads also come in groups up to 10. Working with them "really develops number sense and understanding of squares and cubes," she said. First graders learn to count by fours, fives, up to 10s. Counting by 10s gets them up to 1,000.
Striker, previously a gifted and talented teacher in the district, has been changing how math is taught in elementary grades, to be more hands-on, Superintendent Troy Zabel said.
Striker said Lowe has been implementing the changes at BEPS, "so we aren't doing work sheet after work sheet, but really meeting the needs of the kids."
Striker showed photos of first graders, many of them sitting on the floor, working on various different hands-on activities at the same time.
"One of the key words is differentiation," she said. "If you have a classroom of second graders, you'll have an ability range of kindergarten to fourth grade. By fifth grade, the range is even more. The tradition has been to teach to one level and expect kids to progress."
Differentiation doesn't work without the hands-on materials, she said. Each kid works on one thing until they learn it. "Teachers get to know the kids in a very deep way. You could have 18 kids doing 18 different things... My goal has been to learn what teachers need and get them the materials. There's not a lot about math in traditional elementary teacher education. I hope to bring that."
Lowe said, "Everything is hands-on with minimal paper. That's at the very end, the abstract piece." The idea is for a student to learn something well enough to present it back to the teacher and other students. That indicates mastery, she said.
"The teaching and collaboration they are doing is unbelievable," Lowe said.
Striker said, "Eventually they wean themselves off the materials and go to pencil and paper."
She clarified to the Times that she has been training teachers all year in the use of manipulative materials. She has a long list of items the kindergarteners and first graders are using.
"...there are multiple manipulatives for every math standard and substandard, below the child's grade level as well as beyond the grade level," she said, "so that children are working at their learning level, which may be below, at, or above their present grade."
Most of the materials were designed more than 100 years ago by Maria Montessori, the namesake for Montessori education.
Striker continued, "Once children learn how to use the materials, the teacher becomes more of an observer and facilitator, rather than the center of the classroom. Children are working on materials at their ability level, and the teacher moves them onward to higher levels in small group lessons as they are ready."
She said second graders will shift to more hands-on materials this fall. In grades three through five, the teachers are using hands-on materials "as presentation tools to make new concepts more understandable, and students are using them from time to time as needed." In those grades, most of the instruction time is for the whole class, with occasional use of hands-on learning centers.

The rap mogul says he'll have a leadership role in dealing with racial profiling.
Jay Z says he'll move forward with his holiday partnership with luxury retailer Barneys New York, which has been accused of racial profiling two black customers at its Manhattan flagship store.
The hip-hop icon and entrepreneur, who has been under pressure to call off the deal, says he's continuing with the launch of the BNY SCC collection "under the condition that I have a leadership role and seat on a council specifically convened to deal with the issue of racial profiling."
"I am in a unique position to use my voice to affect change to this disturbing issue," Jay Z wrote Friday in a statement on his website. "The easy position would have been to walk away and leave policy making to others hoping that someone addresses the problem. ... I will take this into my own hands with full power to recommend, review and revise policies and guidelines moving forward. I am choosing to take this head on."
The rap mogul, whose given name is Shawn Carter, says his team is privy to the status of Barneys' third party investigation and had been in contact with the New York State Attorney General's office for the status of its investigation, the findings of which "are not yet available."
He also stressed the charitable aspect of his connection to Barneys, with 100% of the collection's proceeds now earmarked for his Shawn Carter Foundation. Additionally, "the foundation will receive 10% of all retail sales from Barneys New York stores nationwide and Barneys.com on Nov. 20."
It was announced in September that Jay Z's foundation and Barneys were joining forces for "A New York Holiday," a collaboration set to include original interactive windows and exclusive limited-edition products.

|In response to Re: Garden water spigot where well is bored?
: : : : : : The check valve would be between the pump and the tank and your hose faucet would have to be connected after the check valve, regardless of where the actual faucet is located.
: : : : : : : : : : :
: : : : : : : : : : You can put a yard hydrant in. Do you live somewhere that it freezes?
: : : : : : : : : :Live where it barely freezes 30 degrees a few times a year but warms during the day always- people don't wrap pipes here as a rule but I could put some of insulating pipewrap on the water spigot and pipe. Is that the same as a hydrant? Thanks , Lena PS - love your "handle"
: : : : : : : : I just don't trust Mother Nature. Next winter you could have a record cold snap. Why not put a stop and waste valve where you tap into the mainline. The mainline will be deep enough to protect from freezing, and the hose will not be needed during the winter. I'm not sure how much protection wrapping a pipe would give.
: : : : : : : Thanks Gary, I will look that one up too. Hubby says we need a bunch of stuff for tank setup. He is puzzling over where to put a "checkvalve" now that I am getting a faucet of some kind at the wellsite. Or if to put one at all. He said the pump has one built in.I think he is leaning toward putting one in and I quote "after the tank" but he needs some help on that I think.
: : : : : If you install a yard hydrant, you will not need an inground stop and waste. The yard hydrant is buried and hooks into the main. It actually shuts off and drain in the ground. You just need to remove the hose in freezing weather so it can drain.
: : : Lena, The more we communicate, the more I want to encourage you to call a plumber or a pump person as I see alot of potential problems here. YoI am confused....is this a submersible or a jet pump? The water lines are going to need to be buried from the well head to the pressure tank, regardless of what your temps are. The top of the well head has to be sealed. Your statement about having a water spigot stickout out of the top or side of the well casing alarms me. I also think it is not a good idea to depend on electricity to prevent freezing. Power goes out too often.
: An above ground pump installation is not a submersible, it is a jet pump. An "in the well" pump is a submersible.

Kyoto isn't the only protocol being broken in Durban. Seems that I slipped at the launch of the UNFCCC Secretariat's new Momentum for Change initiative.
Special guests at the event included South African President Jacob Zuma, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, UNFCCC Executive Secretary Christiana Figueres, and COP 17/CMP 7 President Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, with Lord Nicholas Stern as moderator.
I arrived at the plenary in good time and took a seat next to the centre aisle and waited. And waited. And waited some more. And while I waited, I made use of my time by catching up on some work. Forty-five minutes on, from the corner of my eye I noticed audience members start to stand as the frontline security detail made its way to the front, followed by the dignitaries. As I completed my work, a member of the entourage give my bag a swift kick. Curious, I thought. I looked down to confirm that it wasn't projecting into the aisle. Bad day at the negotiations perhaps?
No, it was more serious than that. I came to understand that I had breached protocol. The assault on my bag seems to have been a result of my failure to stand when the dignitaries entered the room. Ironically, I was being shamed into action.
Ironic because here at the COP on November 29th, the World Meteorological Organization released a statement saying that global temperatures in 2011 are the 10th highest on record, the warmest year with a La Nina event, and that the extent of Arctic sea ice was the second lowest on record and the volume of sea ice the lowest. Ironic because the Secretary General himself is saying that the goal of a comprehensive and binding agreement is currently beyond our reach. And ironic because the so-called "Lighthouse Projects" highlighted in Momentum for Change show ordinary people around the world, people without fancy titles, working hard on climate change mitigation and adaptation projects.
So to all of the dignitaries at the COP, how about this: I'll stand when you deliver.

Oakley resurrected the original tooling from the early '80s to produce new limited editions, giving you a chance to own a piece of history. For each original color combination of this coveted style, limited quantities will be produced. This is an opportunity to own a rare retro classic, and once supplies are gone, the window of opportunity will be closed forever. The Oakley Blacklight series is def cooler then ever.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Anonymity
In his landmark report to the 23rd session of the Human Rights Council, Frank La Rue, the U.N's free speech watchdog, makes clear that anonymous expression and secure communication are critical for an open society. We gave you a quick look at that report yesterday. Now we want to take a deep dive into his support for your rights to anonymity and encryption, and what countries need to do to reflect his conclusions.
It's hard to think of a more worthy goal than combating domestic violence. With its recent reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) (PDF), Congress created and expanded federal programs to assist local communities and victims deal with domestic and sexual abuse. But along with these great ideas, Congress unfortunately made some big mistakes that could hurt a lot of Internet speech.
Tomorrow, as the Senate Judiciary Committee considers reforming the decades-old federal email privacy law, the personal Inboxes and love lives of senior military and intelligence figures may be on that august body's mind. When the FBI pored through the personal lives of CIA Director David Petraeus, Paula Broadwell, Jill Kelly and General John Allen, citizens across the land began to wonder how the FBI could get that kind of information, both legally and technically.
A few hours after EFF and the ACLU of Northern California filed a class action lawsuit in San Francisco federal court challenging California's recently enacted Proposition 35, the court issued a temporary restraining order, blocking implementation of the initiative due to the existence of "serious questions" about whether it violated the First Amendment.
Last week, the Dutch Minister of Safety and Justice asked the Parliament of the Netherlands to pass a law allowing police to obtain warrants to do the following:
- Install malware on targets' private computers
- Conduct remote searches on local and foreign computers to collect evidence
- Delete data on remote computers in order to disable the accessibility of "illegal files."
Requesting assistance from the country where the targetted computer(s) were located would be "preferred" but possibly not required. These proposals are alarming, could have extremely problematic consequences, and may violate European human rights law. As if that wasn't troubling enough, lurking in this letter was a request for something more extreme:
- If the location of a particular computer cannot be determined, the Dutch police would be able to break in without ever contacting foreign authorities.
What would cause the "location of a particular computer" not to be determinable?

Renee Fabisenski, PCA South Site
As a PCA, Renee Fabisenski has the chance to get to know all her patients in 4S at the South Site. One female patient in particular was so impressed with her compassion that she took the time to write about it to the hospital.
"To list all she has done for me while I was a patient here would be too time consuming," wrote the 70-year-old woman. "She actually took the time to delve into my pain."
And pain – both physical and mental – was something the woman was well acquainted with.
A Sandy survivor, she lost her home and possessions in the storm and was hospitalized during the December holidays with a severe upper respiratory infection. Adding to her distress, was a difficult relationship with a family member that was causing her anxiety.
Renee sat with the woman, listened to her concerns and discussed methods of dealing with her relative.
"She had a lot of issues going on and I think everything just came crashing down on her," explained Renee. "I've learned that half the time patients are not looking for you to give them answers, they just need somebody to listen to them. It gives them comfort."
In addition to being a good listener, Renee was also praised for bringing homemade cake to the woman and other patients in the unit during her New Year's Eve shift.
Renee is among 205 SIUH employees who earned a Service Excellence Award for the 1st quarter of 2013. The award is given to employees based on letters and emails sent to the hospital from patients and patients' families.
For Renee, a 10-year veteran of the hospital and mother of six, her position as a patient care assistant merges her hands-on care and empathetic skills.
"It's the most humbling job I've ever had," said Renee.

Report: Bills' Dareus arrested in Alabama
by Joe Buscaglia
posted May 6 2014 10:11PM
The Buffalo Bills and the rest of the NFL have under two days to go until the start of the 2014 version of the draft, and they were putting all of their focus into those efforts. At least, that was until Tuesday night.
According to WVUA-TV, Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus was arrested in Cleburne County in Alabama. Multiple reports indicate that Dareus was arrested on Monday night for felony possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia.
Travis Leder, who works for the station that originally broke the story, reported that the substance was synthetic cannabis or "spice." After Dareus' arrest he was released within an hour.
The Bills commented on the story Tuesday night around 11 pm through the team's Senior Vice President of Communications Scott Berchtold:
"All we know right now is what we have seen in media reports and we will continue to look into this."
The former third overall pick, Dareus just had the fifth-year option of his contract picked up by the team for the 2015 season. He was disciplined twice at the end of the 2013 campaign for what a league source called being "habitually late" to team meetings.
Keep checking back for more details on this story.

Author of Serpent Tide, K.L. Fogg visited with the children at Book Cliff Elementary on April 6.
Fogg started by telling the children a little bit about herself. It was around five years old when she realized she wanted to be an author. She would always make her mother little books with drawings in them. She said, " And then I actually grow up and became an author." She asked the students if they knew what they wanted to become.
After college Fogg moved to Japan with her husband. She became an English teacher there for about two years. They moved all over and now have three kids. Fogg went back to school and received her masters degree in journalism. She became a news anchor for the Missouri morning news where she able to cover some exciting things like riding in a hot air balloon, riding jet skis down and Mississippi river and covering tornado's. Fogg and her family then moved to Salt Lake City where she really started to miss writing. That's how the writing began.
Fogg had the children watch a movie where she interviews one of the characters Jack Mackie from her book. She then asked them questions about the movie where they received a snake pen for a correct answer. Following that Fogg answered questions for the children.
Fogg said she is already started on the second book and she thinks there will be three books in the series.

Primary Care I
Students spend six consecutive weeks in a functioning clinical ambulatory care setting with direct patient care responsibility. At least 40 percent of time is spent in continuity of care, 10-20 percent in acute care, and the remainder in subspecialty and gynecology ambulatory clinics. Psycho-social issues are addressed in the context of patient care with preceptor supervision and psychiatric input.
The experience focuses on ambulatory/primary care issues in clinical medicine, pediatrics and family practice. Students expand existing skills in medical interviewing, and physical diagnosis while developing additional skills in differential diagnosis, health care maintenance, patient counseling and follow-up.
During the course, students are responsible for assuming the role of "student" physician under the supervision of an attending preceptor. In addition to direct patient care responsibility, small-group case discussions and topic reviews of particular importance to primary care form the core of the teaching. Students are required to present an in-depth review of one primary care topic during the course. There will be formal evaluation of the student's performance by attending preceptors based on observation of patient encounters, record keeping, and presentations. Students will be required to evaluate the course and sites.
In order to obtain Honors, students are required to conduct a special project in ambulatory or community health in addition to performing at an honors level, several projects have gone onto research projects.
Students will spend one afternoon (Tuesday) a week back at the SUNY Downstate campus taking ECM III (see description in course selection book), which is considered to be an integral part of Primary Care I. The final grade for Primary Care I will include performance in the ECM III component.
During the six-week Primary Care or Family Practice Clerkship, students will participate in Essentials of Clinical Medicine (ECM) III. ECM III consists of a didactic session and a small group meeting during the student's primary care clerkship. The large group didactic sessions review and elaborate on skills introduced during the first two years of ECM: communication, ethics, evidence-based medicine (EBM), building a partnership with patients. The small group sessions give the students a chance to discuss how to apply and develop these skills in the context of actual patients.
Attendance at all sessions is mandatory. The students are also expected to hand in an EBM exercise, and a brief paper describing the application of all the course skills to a specific patient.

Reviews for this host's other properties
I am really disappointed by the apartment it wasn't a studio, as he wrote on Wimdu, but a room with a bathroom. The "apartment" was only 15m2 instead of the 40m2 and without terrasse or balcony like he said. And this room smelt humidity a lot. Awful...
I was really angry so Pino hosted me in his apartment who was free for few days. I was in a private room with a private kitchen and bathroom. And then I had to change to an apartment who was further than the one I choose, as least for few days he told me.
Few hours after my arrival he text me that I have to change again the next morning because he finally rented the apartment to other people. So one week after my arrival I was again without apartment. Unfortunately for me Pino was more interested by making money than to find me a solution.
Then he host me for the next nights into another of his apartment, not really great too, and then I found me a room into the apartment of one of his friend... I would have preferred an apartment for myself, but it was probably the best solution because I was tired of moving. After more than a week of moving Pino finally managed to get rid of me...
Great host! Welcoming, helpful and attentive. The apartment is right next to the Vatican which was perfect for my mother and I. Nevertheless staying here is GREAT value for the price! I would stay again!
Location is superb for Vatican side of town touring and the walk to the Metro is easy. Take an umbrella in case of rain. Grocery store is very near and we had everything we needed to make breakfast each day.. Unit is spacious and "cabin-y" - lots of plants and vegetation outside the windows so we had mosquitos and small bug visitors when they were open. Internet service is unusable in unit, have to sit outside to get good service.
First the good things; The apartment is situated in a very nice street with beautiful exotic plants. It is very quit during the night and the beds are good, so you can sleep well and recover for the next day. (Although the walls are really thin but luckily we had quit neighbors.)
But: the apartment smells terribly because of all the moist and mildew….
Of course its not the highest price to pay, but on the internet you see only the best photo's of all four apartments. For instance we did not have a couch nor a cooker hood (so it was really uncomfortable to cook our own meals.) And when you stay for ten days you get only one towel, so you better bring your own. The washing machine works well, but there is no place to dry your clothes.
All of this: No problem when you stay only a few days during the summer.
This is a clean, basic, apartment with kitchen facilities located close to the Vatican. It is not luxurious but you are not paying luxury prices. This particular apartment is located in the shade, which may be quite welcome in the summer months but it could be a little dark in the winter.
I recommend printing out a detailed map of the area before you come. Clivo delle Mura Vaticane is a very small street that turns into a set of pedestrian steps located between Via Angelo Emo and Viale Vaticano. You should be physically mobile and comfortable with hills to stay in this apartment. There is, however, a bus stop very close just up the hill on Viale Vaticano which is very convenient to the Vatican Museum, St. Peter's, Piazza Cavour, and, with bus transfers, the rest of the city. Once you figure out how it works, the apartment becomes quite accessible.
Pino was an accommodating host.
Good value for money, the apartment is very centrally located, but it is five stairs up. values (Pino) is very helpful. If you want to use their money for other things than luxurious accommodations so are the apartment a great choice
we have been very good.
hemos estado muy bien.
We had booked all three apartments together and were super surprised. The location is great, the apartments very clean and well maintained and equipped with everything you bruacht.
The landlord was very accommodating and helpful in every respect. Arrival could be made very flexible and uncomplicated.
In being able to add that the apartments are just by car a good choice, because there are many parking spaces along the walls of the Vatican is available right outside the door (50m), the nciht only on weekends for free, but also to a large extent still Video are monitored.
I can really recommend the apartments.
Wir hatten alle drei Appartments zusammen gebucht und waren super positiv überrascht. Die Lage ist toll, die Wohnungen sehr sauber und gepflegt und mit allem ausgestattet, was man bruacht.
Der Vermieter war in jeglicher Hinsicht sehr entgegenkommend und hilfsbereit. Ankunft und Abfahrt konnten sehr flexible und unkompliziert gestaltet werden.
Bei der Lage ist noch hinzuzufügen, dass die Appartments gerade mit Auto eine gute Wahl sind, da direkt vor der Tür (50m) viele Parkplätze entlang der Mauer des Vatikans zur Verfügung stehen, die nciht nur am Wochenende kostenlos, sondern auch zum großen Teil noch Video überwacht sind.
Ich kann die Appartments wirklich empfehlen.
Nightmare in Rome for 4 families with 7 children. Our stay can only be described as a horror as we had the misfortune to suffer a nerve called Pino Nazio. To start when we reached the lodge was not to greet, not picked up the phone. We had to wait about 2 hours and, to our surprise, instead of apologizing or explaining because he had not shown tells us that one of the custro apartments is not available for a hydraulic failure. We asked to see the apartment but no access. The solution: to tighten our. The apartments uncollected uncleaned ...... After several discussions and discover that the apartment is not available, just opposite we occupied, had been rented to others, refund of the money raised but not in cash, a check we could not cash in Rome. Wimdu contacted. They know nothing of the damaged apartment and recommend us not to do any dealings with mr. Pino. Upon arrival in Spain, Wimdu seems at the expense of what you want the person who has cheated us, said sr. Pino. In short, shabby treatment and first and last time we trust our holiday company.
Pesadilla en Roma para 4 familias con 7 niños. Nuestra estancia sólo puede describirse como un horror ya que tuvimos la desgracia de sufrir a un caradura llamado Pino Nazio. Para empezar cuando llegamos al alojamiento no estaba para recibirnos, tampoco nos cogió el teléfono. Tuvimos que esperarle cerca de 2 horas y, para nuestra sorpresa, en vez de pedir disculpas o explicarnos porque no había aparecido nos dice que unos de los custro apartamentos no está disponible por una avería hidráulica. Le pedimos ver el apartamento pero no accede. La solución: que nos apretemos. Los apartamentos sin recoger sin limpiar...... Tras varias discusiones y descubrir que el apartamento no disponible, justo enfrente de los que ocupábamos, había sido alquilado a otras personas, plantea devolvernos parte del dinero pero no en metálico, en un cheque que no podríamos cobrar en Roma. Contactamos con Wimdu. Ellos no saben nada del apartamento averiado y nos recomiendan que no hagamos trato alguno con el sr. Pino. A nuestra llegada a España, Wimdu parece estar a expensas de lo que quiera la persona que nos ha timado: el mencionado sr. Pino. En definitiva, lamentable trato y primera y última vez que confiamos nuestras vacaciones a esta empresa.
We had a very pleasent stay with a nice landlord in this clean and quiet little house just behind the Vatican. To wake up in the middle of Rome to a concert of little singing birds instead of traffic was really unexpected!!!
