VIRGINIANS CAN EXPECT MORE POLITICAL TRAVEL OUT OF THE GOVERNOR, AND CRITICISM FROM DEMOCRATS ABOUT IT, ACCORDING TO U-V-A'S KYLE KONDIK.

KONDIK DOES SAY THE POSITION RAISES MCDONNELL'S PROFILE, AND THE GOVERNOR HAS BEEN QUOTED IN POLITICO AS BEING "VERY INTERESTED" IN THE VICE-PRESIDENTIAL SPOT.

=====================================================================
THE GREAT DISMAL SWAMP FIRE IN SUFFOLK HAS BEEN BURNING FOR A WEEK AND A HALF NOW AND HAS CHARRED 6-THOUSAND-1-HUNDRED-56 ACRES. TRACY FARLEY AT THE SWAMP SAYS THAT ONE HALF INCH OF RAIN FELL ON THE FIRE AREA YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. WHILE ANY KIND OF RAIN IS HELPFUL, MUCH MORE IS NEEDED. THERE ARE OVER 3-HUNDRED FIREFIGHTERS WORKING ON THE FIRE, AND THEY ARE PUMPING WATER FROM LAKE DRUMMOND INTO DITCHES THROUGHOUT THE SWAMP. THEY'RE ALSO STRENGTHENING FIRE LINES TO TRY TO CONTAIN THE BLAZE. ANOTHER OBSTACLE THAT FIREFIGHTERS CURRENTLY HAVE IS THAT THERE ARE MANY TREES THAT HAVE FALLEN--THAT'S BECAUSE THE FIRE HAS BURNED DEEP AND LOOSENED SOME ROOTS. GREEN TREES AND DEAD TREES HAVE FALLEN. THAT IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR FIREFIGHTERS AND A HINDRANCE TO GET EQUIPMENT TO THE FIRE SITE.

STORY DETAILS: ONLY 38% OF VIRGINIA'S SCHOOLS MADE WHAT IS KNOWN AS "ADEQUATE YEARLY PROGRESS" LAST SCHOOL YEAR. ADEQUATE YEARLY PROGREESS IS A FEDERAL STANDARD, AND SCHOOLS CAN FAIL TO MAKE IT NOT ONLY IF THE ENTIRE SCHOOL FAILS TO SCORE HIGHER ENOUGH, BUT ALSO IF SUBGROUPS (AFRICAN-AMERICANS, SPECIAL NEEDS, HISPANIC, ETC.) FAIL TO MAKE IT. SPOKESMAN CHARLES PYLE SAYS THE PROBLEM LAST YEAR WAS NOT THAT SCORES DROPPED, BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T, BUT THAT THE BENCHMARKS ROSE. HE SAYS THEY ARE REACHING A LEVEL AT WHICH EVEN REALLY GOOD SCHOOLS HAVE TROUBLE MEETING THEM. THE STATE PLANS TO SEEK A WAIVER FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR SOME OF THE REQUIREMENTS, ALTHOUGH PYLE SAYS THE PREFERENCE IS THAT THE LAW BE CHANGED.

=====================================================================
POLICE IN BEDFORD ARE TRYING TO CONTROL SOME FEATHERED CREATURES WHO AREN'T SO FRIENDLY. JEFF STAPLETON REPORTS
BEDFORD POLICE SAY THAT VULTURES ARE PICKING AT PEOPLE'S SHINGLES AND DAMAGING CARS AND GENERALLY BEING A NUISANCE. CAPTAIN JIM BENNETT TOLD W-S-E-T T-V IN LYNCHBURG THAT THEY HAVE A FEDERAL PERMIT TO KILL 30 OF THE BIRDS A YEAR, BUT THERE'S FAR MORE THAN THAT IN THE CITY. POLICE ARE URGING PEOPLE TO KEEP TRASH CANS CLOSED AND CLEAN UP DEBRIS AROUND THEIR HOMES TO MAKE THEM LESS ATTRACTIVE TO THE VULTURES.
THE VULTURES ARE CIRCLING AROUND THE CITY--AND WHEN THEY DECIDE TO LAND, THEY END DAMAGING ROOFS AND GUTTERS, AND PICK AT PEOPLE'S SHINGLES AND DAMAGE VEHICLES. BEDFORD POLICE TELL A LYNCHBURG T-V STATION THAT THEY HAVE A FEDERAL PERMIT TO KILL 30 OF THE BIRDS, BUT THAT'S NOT GOING TO DO MUCH GOOD SINCE THERE ARE FAR MORE THAN THAT NUMBER IN THE CITY. SHOOING THEM AWAY, OR SCARING THEM WITH LOUD NOISES DOESN'T WORK EITHER. THAT JUST SHIFTS THEM TO ANOTHER LOCATION.
POLICE ARE TRYING TO GET A HANDLE ON A VULTURE PROBLEM IN THE CITY. THE BIRDS ARE CIRCLING THE CITY AND PECKING AT ROOFS AND GUTTERS OF HOUSES. THEY'LL EVEN SOMETIMES PICK AT SHINGLES AND DAMAGE PEOPLE'S VEHICLES. POLICE HAVE TRIED TO SHOO THEM AWAY OR SCARE THEM WITH LOUD NOISES--BUT THAT JUST HELPS IN RELOCATING THE BIRDS. POLICE HAVE TOLD A LYNCHBURG T-V STATION THAT THEY HAVE A FEDERAL PERMIT TO KILL 30 BIRDS A YEAR, BUT THE NUMBER IN THE CITY IS MUCH MORE THAN THAT.

IF ATTORNEY GENERAL KEN CUCCINELLI DECIDES TO CHALLENGE BOLLING IN A 2013 G-O-P GOVERNOR'S PRIMARY, JENSEN SAYS CUCCINELLI HAS 45% OF THE VOTE AND BOLLING 21%.

CONTACT NUMBER: (If available)
=====================================================================
