Everyone knew about the Wisenheimer Mansion-- no one ever came out of it. But I had to follow when my little brother ran into the house! This all happened about a week ago, while I was practicing soccer to my brother. We live right next to the old mansion, which gave all of my family the creeps, especially because of all the rumors about it. I was kicking the ball around when my brother, James, wanted to play. I told him not to kick the ball out of our yard, but he did anyway.
The ball flew over our hedge and landed on the path in front of the mansion's front door. Before our eyes, the front door opened and the ball rolled in-- by itself!
James went running after balls. I yelled, "James, don't go in there!" but he was running too fast to hear me. I ran after him, calling him to stop, but he kept on running. "Listen to me!!" I screamed. "You better stop now!!"
He ran straight into the mansion. He screamed, "I got the soccer ball!" But it was to late. The doors slammed closed, with a booming, echoing sound.
I leaped over the hedge and ran into in the mansion, and the doors slammed closed. I looked around. No sign of James. I walked around for a while, and then started to call his name. All I heard back was an echo, saying the same thing. Then suddenly, I heard a shriek. James!!
The scream gave me a scare. Chills ran up my back. I raced down the halls, towards the sound of the scream.
I ran down what seemed like miles of halls until I finally found the room where the screams were coming from. I burst through the door, calling, "Are you okay?" But James didn't look at me-- he was looking at something standing over him, and he kept on screaming.
Finally, I saw exactly what he was screaming about. Right in front of him was a big, ugly, disgusting creature. He wasn't that tall, but he was big, and so covered in long hair and dust that you could hardly tell who he was-- or what he was. He had enormous fangs and scales all over his face.
"Shhhh!!" the creature said. James and I looked at each other. "He'll hear you." the creature said again.
"Who??" I whispered softly.
"My father. I'm not like him. I'll do what I can to help you get out, before he gets you." the creature said, sounding scared. The creature walked out of the room and looked carefully to the left and right. He motioned for us to follow him. We all crept through the halls of the mansion, and we found ourselves at the back door.
We were about to open it, when a huge shadow loomed over us. "Hurry!! That's my father, go!!" the creature said, shoving us out.
"Boy, that was scary." James said. "I wonder what that other shadow was."
"I don't want to find out!!" I said firmly, and pushed James toward our house.
James said, "Well, I do. There are no such things as monsters, and I'm going to find out what all this is about."
"You're too little," I said firmly. James stubbornly started to walk back toward the mansion. I sighed. "Alright-- I'll find out what's going on. James, tell Mom I'm not going to come back until late." And with that, I went straight back in the mansion. When I walked in again, no one was in sight.
"That's funny." I said to myself. I walked upstairs, went in all the rooms, went back downstairs, looked in all the rooms, and when I looked in the last room, I saw a microphone, a cutout cardboard of a monster, and a monster suit, exactly like the one that we saw. I walked around in the room, and saw props straight out of a horror movie.
"Well, who ever lives here didn't want guests." I said to myself. I went outside, and saw two men. One was tall and skinny-- and other was a man of medium height-- exactly the height of the monster James and I had seen. "What are you doing here?" the medium man said.
"I think the question is what are you doing here." I said, starting to get angry.
"That's none of your business," The tall man said.
"I know your secret, I figured it out. You don't want any guests so you rigged up this fake haunted house to scare everyone away. Why do you do this?" I said. I was really angry.
At that moment, James and my parents came flung open the doors. "What's going on?" my mother said.
I turned to them. "These two men have been trying to scare everyone away with their haunted house-- and with no good reason!"
"No-- there is a reason," said the smaller man. "This house was the house of our father, George Wisenheimer."
"I remember him," said my father. "He used to be the bank president of a big bank in New York-- but then one day he disappeared with everyone's savings!"
The smaller man nodded. "He did. And he was very rich, but he died before he could make a will. He never trusted banks, so he hid all the money in the house. And after he died, we couldn't afford to pay for the house-- but we didn't want anyone to buy it and find our money! So we started rumors about it being haunted, and made it look like that. We haven't found the money, and we haven't even started to look because to many people come here to see if it really is haunted, and they find out that it isn't, and, and, we just want our money!!" the man said, sounding tired and distressed.
We called the police and the two men were taken away. We told them what happened, and the next day search crews entered the mansion and started looking for the money. Finally they found the safe in the basement and were able to give the money back to all the people George Wisenheimer had stolen from.
And as for me, I was rewarded by the town, for finding the two monsters. I got a gold plaque, and my parents gave me the best reward, a banana split with whipped cream, nuts, sprinkles, chocolate chips, hot fudge, and a cherry on top.
Congratulations, JessiQT11 !

On 1-18-2013, at about 1:35 p.m. officers were dispatched to investigate a bank robbery at Farmers and Merchants Bank, located at 3001 McHenry Ave. The suspect entered the bank with a firearm and demanded money from the tellers. After obtaining an undisclosed amount of money the suspect fled the bank. A description of the suspect was broadcasted to other officers in the area.
At about 3:09 p.m. officers were dispatched to a second bank robbery at BBVA Compass Bank, located at 2601 Oakdale Rd. The suspect entered the bank armed with a firearm and demanded money. The suspect took an undisclosed amount of money and fled. The physical, clothing and firearm description were the same in both robberies. Officers converged on the area to look for the suspect.
An officer assigned to the Modesto Police Department's Street Gang Unit was in the area and made a stop on a motorcyclist matching the description. During the stop the driver Anthony Edward Fuerst, 51 years, was found to be in possession of money from both locations and the clothing worn during the robberies. He was also armed with a loaded sawed off shotgun.Anthony was arrested for two counts of armed robbery

Residents of Wyoming and surrounding states as well as attendees at the Wyoming State Fair are invited to join the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) during fair days to possibly adopt a wild horse of their own. Adoptions can be made throughout the week during Mustang Days and especially on Friday, August 15, Mustang Day.
BLM has been bringing adoptable wild horses to the Wyoming State Fair for the last five years. The event has always resulted in a 100 percent sell-out of the horses. Each year, horses have found good homes in this way. Dates for the 2014 Wyoming State Fair are Aug. 9 through Aug. 16.
Horse buyers readily know that purchasing a horse for $125 is a great deal. Horses can be bought for a minimum of $125 per animal and, through a silent bid process, some horses might be slightly more because of multiple competitive bids.
According to Scott Fluer of Wild Horse and Burro Adoption of the BLM says, "We've been coming [to the Wyoming State Fair] every year for the last five years and bringing wild horses to adopt."
The BLM gets many of these wild horses from the controversial wild horse roundups. At various times, the BLM holds "gathers" during which it corrals wild horses to remove them from open federally-owned and state-owned lands. Many of these horses are then trained to trust humans so that they can be easily handled and gentled.
Says BLM horse trainer Steve Mantle, "You've got to gentle them down and build trust with that horse first."
Once the handlers gain some rapport with the horses, each animal responds in its own unique and individual way. The horses brought to the Wyoming State Fair are generally the gently-trained horses. Each animal is well-started and will make a terrific riding partner.
People who already own trained wild horses will attest to the remarkable nature of these horses. They are very popular and often become great favorites. They are smart, sound, sure-footed and exceptionally healthy. Once the wild horse accepts its new role with a human, it forms a close bond and aims to please.
If the wild horse finds its destiny in a gather and certain confinement, hopefully it can also find a good and forever home.

Living costs and budgeting
The average student will need around £7,000 for each year of study to cover their living costs (not including tuition fees). At Brunel, we can help you stick to your budget with great value accommodation and facilities.
Sample budget
The following list outlines how much the average student can expect to spend per term while studying at Brunel (calculations are based on a 12-week term).
- Accommodation – £1500
-(based on a couple sharing) Bills (off campus) – Gas £120 per term/Electric £120 per term/TV Licence £37 per term/Water £30 per term / Telephone & Internet £120 per term
- Phone (Mobile) £90 to £100 per term
- Food & Groceries £ 330.00 per term
- Travel (variable) Tube Zones 1-6 with student travel card is £ 40.00 per week
- Bus Pass £14.10 per week
- Books/Equipment (depends upon Course undertaken – Schools may be able to provide more exact details – for Access to Learning Fund
- Purposes we allow up to £600 per academic year
- Clothing/Other Shopping £200 - £300 per quarter
- Entertainment £360
Every student is different, and you should calculate your own budget based on your personal circumstances. You can find a useful cost-of-living calculator on the UCAS website.
Living costs for international students
If you are coming from outside the EU and require a visa to enter the UK to study, then an essential part of your student visa application process will be to provide evidence that you have enough money to live on, in addition to your course tuition fees. These funds are called maintenance funds.
These amounts are set by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) for Brunel University as follows:
Course length
Maintenance funds required for course length
Nine months or less
Remaining course fees plus £1,265 to cover living costs for each calendar month of the course
More than nine months
Remaining course fees for the first academic year plus £11,385 to cover living costs for nine months
More information about the maintenance requirements can be found on our Visas and Immigration webpage. International students can also use the international student calculator developed by UNIAID to help them balance their budgets, and read tips from other international students.
All new UCAS main scheme have the opportunity to live on campus in one of Brunel's halls of residence. Visit the accommodation webpages for more information and the latest rates.
All halls are self-catering, and rent rates include utility bills and a free network connection through which you can access the Internet at no extra cost (with some limitations and subject to the Computer Centre's Terms and Conditions).
You may choose not to live in halls of residence at all, or to live off-campus after your first year. Brunel's Housing Office maintains a large database of rooms, houses and flats and can give advice and information to help you find good value accommodation. Local private housing is very reasonably priced for the London area, and, unlike most agencies, the Housing Office does not charge for its services. For more details, see the off-campus housing pages.
Food and catering
The more you buy, the larger the discount you receive. If you prefer to cater for yourself, you can stretch your money even further by cooking with other students, and avoiding takeaways and ready meals. There is also is a weekly fresh fruit and vegetable market on campus every Tuesday during term time.
If you plan to live at home or off-campus you will need to budget for travel costs, and in any case, you will want to travel both within and outside the local area in your free time.
Uxbridge is part of the London transport network, so you can buy an Oyster Card to use on buses, the tube and local trains, saving you money in comparison with standard fares (see Oyster Online). If you purchase a season ticket rather than pay for travel as you go, then you may be eligible for a student Oyster photocard, entitling you to a 30% discount (see Oyster Photocards Online).
If you live further than two miles from the campus or if you are a disabled student, you will be eligible to apply for a parking permit, currently costing £93 per year. Please note that students who live on or within two miles of the campus will not be allowed to park a car at the University. Permits can be applied for through eVision once you are fully enrolled.
Course materials
You will need to set aside money for course materials and study equipment, and in particular for text books, which can be expensive. Good second-hand books and materials can be found on eBay and Amazon, as well as on your School notice board. The majority of your expenditure will fall at the beginning of each term when you receive reading lists, so plan ahead.
How much you spend on entertainment – such as socialising, eating out and your hobbies – will vary greatly depending on your interests. Membership fees for University clubs and societies vary – some are free, and others give access to reduced price activities. The bars and nightclub on campus offer very good value for money.
Advice and support
The Advice and Representation Centre (ARC), run by the Students' Union, provide free, confidential, accurate and independent information on a range of areas that may affect your life whilst studying and working. This includes advice on financial issues such as budget planning, welfare benefits entitlement, employment issues, debt negotiation and counselling, student support queries and advice on the University Hardship Fund.
The Professional Development Centre can provide work-related information either through the Job Shop (for example on your National Insurance number, tax, the national minimum wage and your rights as an employee) or the Careers team (for example on written applications, CV writing, covering letters, application forms and interview skills).

What the second week of Top 48 performances lacked on "America's Got Talent," the third week made up for Tuesday evening, twelve more acts taking the stage and, instead of letting the legendary Radio City Music Hall swallow them up, commanded the attention befitting acts trying to win a million-dollar contract. There were a couple of slips, but where Week 2 was primarily underwhelming, Week 3 was beyond the ordinary -- which is what you want in acts vying for tons of money and a Las Vegas headline gig. But on night of great performances, the producers had stacked far too many musical acts, apparently determined to whittle the number down.
As noted in Reality Rewind's recap of the show Aug. 13, the first thing noticeable about Week 3 is host Nick Cannon's budding mohawk, giving his features a more rounded look. A nod to the "America's Got Talent" judges and an emotionally powerful eulogic moment from Judge Howie Mandel mourning the passing of the one of the greatest comedic geniuses ever, Robin Williams -- and the on to the show.
Since there are 18 musical acts in this year's Top 48 and only eight have performed, the remaining ten were split between Week 3 and Week 4, so, unless they make a clean sweep in the voting, one or more of those acts will be headed home on their particular results nights. And after hearing the acts from Tuesday's performance round, one was likely to wish that at least a couple of them had been on last week's episode, especially given the lackluster performances.
Like the two weeks prior, Week 3 started off with a dance troupe (or team), this time with Dragon House's The Agents. Their synchronized animation is usually a thing of beauty but something was off Tuesday night. And it might have been the poor choice of camera angles. Sadly, as talented as these guys are, they will likely meet the same fate on the eliminations results show that their predecessors did.
Only one of the music groups failed to impress. Kieran and Finian Makepeace performed Ellie Goulding's "Lights" in a well-harmonized arrangement that just didn't quite hit the mark.
But the other four musical acts looked ready for the big time. Little 9-year-old inquisitive genius Adrian Romoff showed his mastery of the ivories with dramatic rendition of a classical piano piece. Ann Clendening, who prefaced her performance with a video clip of overcoming her anxiety disorder, sang Cristina Perri's "Only Human," which prompted Judge Howie Mandel to praise her bravery and note that, in light of the recent death of comedic great Robin Williams, mental illnesses require illumination and education. The Sons of Serendip continued their phenomenal run of taking well-known hits, this week's being Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game," and making them into minimalist and vocalized masterpieces. And soldier Paul Ieti closed the show down with a soaring rendition of One Direction's "You and I," a guy on piano looking amazingly similar to Coldplay's Chris Martin.
Making it difficult for the singers (and the confident, soon-to-be-in-college Adrian Romoff), though, were other superb acts, like Blue Journey, one of the few acts to get all for "America's Got Talent" judges on their feet for a standing ovation. A mixture of dance and shadow imagery, the duo told a captivating story of having something desired, then losing it. And Christian Stoinev, the hand balancer, enthralled the audience with both balancing himself and then balancing his little chihuahua, a move that had Judge Mel B. looking through her fingers, afraid the dog was going to become unbalanced and plummet to the stage. (A cute act, but Christian has to be careful not to rely too much on the cutesy hook, because, in the end, he's a hand balancer.)
The "Today" show contest entree, Cornell Bhangra, would champion Punjabi dancers, had the entire Music Hall on their feet with their colorful and energetic performance. The AcroArmy tumbled, jumped, flipped, vaulted and performed all sorts of acrobatics that impressed the judges as well as the audience.
Mike Super, the "Mystifier," played on a bit of voodoo magic with Judge Mel B., getting his spirit buddy, "Desmond," to tap her on the shoulder, heat up her hands (leaving ash in the palms), and become a conduit to shock her as he tortured a voodoo doll. Judge Howard Stern told him he was good and entertaining but the Desmond schtick had to go.
And then there was Wendy Liebman, the talented comedienne who stepped out and seemed to get off to a slow start (each act only has 90 seconds to perform), but set in after about 20 seconds and had the entire Hall roaring with laughter by the end of her routine. Judge Howie Mandel told the audience and viewers that Liebman's performance may have been the most difficult of all, having to win over an audience with presence, wordplay, and an act that requires a bit of thinking as opposed to mere passive observation.
So twelve performed -- but only five will make it through. Unlike Week 2, attempting to predict which five that might be would be difficult for even the most observant and intuitive individual. But some might have an edge, something extra (the "X" factor) that makes them stand out and above the rest -- the Sons of Serendip, Adrian Romoff, Blue Journey, Wendy Liebman, Anna Clendening. However, Cornell Bhangra and AcroArmy were impressive, as was Christian Stoinev and his chihuahua. Paul Ieti continues to amaze with his vocal stylings.
Face it, people, voting for the best five among the Week 3 performances had to be a free-for-all.
Of course, instead of speculating, just tuning in to the "America's Got Talent" results show at 9 p.m. (EST) on NBC Television Wednesday night should suffice. The unfortunate aspect of performance night's like this week's is that, if a couple of the acts that get voted off had been on during the Week 2 performances, they probably would make the Semifinals.

The first act flies by and it's difficult to believe that it's just two actors trading dialogue that comes straight from their correspondence. It's a tribute to the script and the actors. The second act isn't quite as engaging. There are too many unknowns and it's just not as fun to watch talented people in decline. There was a lot of conversation during intermission about the "water" effect. I think it was a distraction and others thought it was a perfect accent to the themes.

As usual, the acting and staging were up to Berkeley Rep's high standards. Dear Elizabeth drags towards to the end but the two actors are riveting. A fascinating look into the lives of the two poets.

My 11 year old daughter did something not nice to another child in order to be looked at as "cool" in the eyes of other kids. How do we discipline her?
She attended a camp with other kids aged 10-14 in her group. She does not normally interact with these kids at any other time of the year except for these two weeks. Two boys teased her about her last name one day and two other girls (supposedly her 'friends') talked non stop about their phones and snuck them during camp time to send texts. She wanted to be looked at as cool by these kids so she said she would pay one of the boys to tease another. She knew it was wrong as soon as she said it but was afraid to retract it for fear of not fitting in anymore. We have removed her from the camp immediately and taken away privleges. She has never done anything like this and has even been teased herself so why would she think the was appropriate? She was afraid of not belonging...but with kids she didn't really like in the first place.In Topics: Friendships and peer relationships, Discipline and behavior challenges

It may still be summer, but our vacation days are distant memories now. They feel like shadows, lurking in our credit card bills' worst nightmares. This Shadow Palm Pencil Skirt ($76) feels a little bit like that too, reminding us that palm trees only exist in places that have all day happy hours and no one holds a real job that runs past two in the afternoon. Why can't it be vacation all year long?

The Women of Oregon have proven to be formidable in each of the traditional relays, as the 4x100 team of Marybeth Sant, Phyllis Francis, Jenna Prandini and Jasmine Todd tied the fastest time in world (43.31) last weekend at the Mt. SAC Relays and Oregon's 4x400 team used an exhilarating win at the NCAA Indoor Championships to capture the team title.
While the lineups for each event are not released, the Ducks' depth at 800 meters on the women's side should provide a potent 4x800 relay team. The Ducks are led by Laura Roesler, who is ranked first in the NCAA and second in the world in the event (2:00.24), followed by Samantha Murphy who has put up the second fastest college time this season (2:02.61) and Annie Leblanc who ranks sixth (2:04.28).
On the men's side, Oregon has a stable of distance runners who could enter the 4xmile, which falls in the NBC Sports Network live broadcast window, Saturday at 10:25 a.m. PT.
The Men of Oregon will also be entered in the distance medley relay, an event in which they finished second at the NCAA Indoor Championships, and the 4x400.

SAC Relays and is currently fourth in the 400.
The women's team has increased its total of top-10 NCAA marks to nine. The Ducks have quality and depth at 800 meters with the trio of Roesler (first), Murphy (second) and Leblanc (sixth) and lead the nation in the 4x100 as well. Jenna Prandini and Jasmine Todd have the 100 covered as they rank second and seventh, respectively. Phyllis Francis has top 10 marks in both the 400 (second) and 200 (fourth) and Lauren Crockett is sixth in the high jump.

I am so excited to finally know the gender of my baby...had an ultrasound last week and it is definitely a boy! We were going to wait until the 18-20 week U/S, but I just had to know earlier.
Now we can concentrate on names and it just makes everything so much more real being able to talk about my son!
Has anyone else found out the gender yet?

Game 10
TUCSON - A low-scoring game disintegrated in extra innings, and travel arrangements caused Minnesota and No. 6-ranked Washington to tie at 5-5 in the final game of the Pepsi Arizona Softball Classic Sunday afternoon.
Tied 1-1 after seven inning, each team came up with four runs in the eighth. Washington opened with five hits including RBI singles from Aimee Minor and Jaime Clark, and a two-run single by Kathy Fiske.
The Golden Gophers answered promptly with a quick four runs of their own, highlighted by Jordanne Nygren's three-run home run to knot the game at 5-5.
Both teams were scoreless in the ninth.
Anne Thul hit a leadoff home run in the fourth to give Minnesota the first lead.
Aimee Minor singled to lead off the top of the fourth for the Huskies, moving to third on a double by Kristen Rivera. After the second out, Sarah Hyatt walked to load the bases, but Minnesota reliever Piper Martin struck out Amy Hanson to end the threat.
UW tied the game in the top of the sixth when Jaime Clark walked, stole second and scored on a single by Kristen Rivera.
Both teams had flight plans and agreed in a meeting with the umpires to call the game a tie.

Eleven-year-old Dawson Schoening caught a short pass from New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees on Wednesday, then found a seam between linebackers Jonathan Vilma and Danny Clark as he raced 30 yards toward the end zone for his first NFL touchdown.
Schoening was one of four winners in a raffle that raised more than $40,000 for New Orleans-area charities in less than a week. Raffle tickets were $2 apiece, and the response was so overwhelming that Brees said the players might do it again before they wrap up their offseason program in two weeks.
"You know what, honestly, it was just one of those things I can't even remember what I was doing, but it just kind of popped in my head," Brees said. "What a unique opportunity. You know, we're locked out. We can't be at the facility, so we're having to assemble as a group together offsite. (There are) so many logistical things, and yet, you know, we also kind of make the rules during this whole thing, too. And no other year would a fan ever be able to come into the team facility and work out with the team.
"So this is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for those fans; so talking with some of the other guys on the team, they loved the idea."
The winners all echoed that sentiment after they survived a full day on the practice field and in the weight room with close to 30 Saints players on a saucy day.
"It was absolutely more than I ever possibly could have imagined," said Shane Dunshee, 35, of Luling, who also caught a touchdown pass from Brees among other highlights. "It was unbelievable. The players were just outstanding. I just can't say enough. I mean, I still haven't come down from Friday when I first heard that I won."
Schoening, who is from Forney, Texas, said he found out that he had won before entering a movie theater Friday but made sure not to freak out since he was in the theater. The other winners were James Begnaud, 34, of Youngsville, and Emily Gilly, 29, a Metairie native who now lives in Columbia, Md.
Some of them were luckier than others. Dunshee said he bought the minimum allotment of five raffle tickets for $10. Gilly said she snatched up 50 tickets. The others were somewhere in between.Gilly said the experience was "amazing." She caught a pass from backup quarterback Chase Daniel but insisted that Brees taught her how to run the play. Begnaud said the entire day was a highlight for him, and when asked what advice he'll take with him, he said, "stay hydrated."
The winners and their guests spent the night at the Ritz Carlton, where they joined Brees, Vilma, Daniel, offensive tackle Jon Stinchcomb and tight end David Thomas for breakfast. They then headed to Tulane for the workouts and lunch.
"You know, it wasn't just running or conditioning or what have you," Brees said. "There was position-specific drills, ball-handling. They were taking handoffs, they were catching the ball, running routes, hearing the play in the huddle, having to get lined up. So we just really wanted to provide them with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity like that."
Dunshee and Gilly said the experience made them more eager for the NFL to get back to business, and they said it was a meaningful gesture on the Saints' part to make sure the fans felt like they haven't been forgotten.
"I haven't heard the fans really being talked about (during the NFL lockout), and we are the ones suffering the most on this, and just the local businesses and economy and everything," Dunshee said. "You don't hear those topics being brought up, and if they are, they aren't brought up enough. And I just think it's ridiculous that grown men can't get together and figure something out."
INGRAM JOINS TEAMMATES: Tailback Mark Ingram, a first-round draft pick out of Alabama, was at practice after having recently joined his new veteran teammates for the workouts at Tulane.
Ingram was hesitant to join the Saints' workout program because he's not under contract and doesn't have injury protection, but he decided that it would benefit him to learn the Saints' offense.
Ingram also has been working out with local trainer Wyatt Harris at the Sonic Boom academy in Jefferson.
"I've been meeting with Drew and a couple of the guys, just learning the system and getting familiar with things out here," Ingram said. "So I'm really just trying to get accustomed to them and just getting used to everything going on. I really just wanted to develop better chemistry with the guys, be out here, get ready, get to know them better and just get familiar with the terminology and the system."
All six of the Saints' rookies have spent some time at player workouts this month. The veteran players have been able to share old playbooks with the rookies, as well as review video and run through plays on the field.
Though there's no contact at these practices, the players have been doing 7-on-7 drills to simulate some offensive formations, in addition to several position-specific drills.
"He looks great; he looks great," Brees said of Ingram. "There's no doubt he's been working and he's in shape. Now it's just a matter of getting used to these elements here and also just the NFL, the speed of the game, the grind, the physical nature of it all.
"Now as we get into more football-specific stuff, I know he's going to be around a lot more to engage himself with us and learn the offense and just get used to hearing plays, line up, reacting, having it be more muscle memory as opposed to thinking. I think that's a disadvantage to a lot of rookies this offseason is they're not getting those reps that they otherwise would be getting in OTAs and minicamp. So when training camp does start, if they haven't been looking at stuff or getting those reps, they're going to be way behind. And I don't want that for him because I think that he can play a pretty significant role on our offense."
Ingram hasn't been able to work out with many other veteran tailbacks, though. Reggie Bush has elected not to join his teammates, partly due to his own contract uncertainty -- and Pierre Thomas and Chris Ivory are rehabbing from offseason surgeries.
Ingram said he has a good relationship with Bush, though, whom he met with recently at fullback Heath Evans' charity softball game. He said there has been no tension, despite Bush's draft-night tweet that suggested that Ingram's arrival would force Bush out of New Orleans.
"Reggie just congratulated me, told me just to enjoy the moment and that I deserve it," Ingram said. "It's something I've been working my whole life for, so everything with Reggie's been real positive. He's always been real cool with me, real encouraging, real positive. So he's always been nothing but a positive influence for me."
And for those who are curious, Ingram said he doesn't know what number he will wear in the NFL after wearing No. 22 at Alabama -- which currently belongs to Saints cornerback Tracy Porter. Ingram said he isn't too concerned about it.
"A number's just a number," he said.

"The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kandi Burruss went to support Kenya Moore's desire to try something new when it came to her fertility issues. She wanted to go see someone who could help her get fertile through song and smoke. And when they were there, Kenya told Kandi that she should open herself up to the process, since she also wanted a child. According to a new Wetpaint Entertainment report published on March 16, "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kandi Burruss is now revealing that she wants to have a healthy son with soon-to-be husband, Todd Tucker.
"He can pray for you too, Kandi, because I know you want to have children," Kenya says. At first, it seemed like Kandi was upset that Kenya would bring it up, but she does tell the cameras that she has more than thought about it. "I'm hoping that this shaman will bless Todd and I with a healthy son," Kandi tells the Bravo cameras. "Let's see what he can do."
It is no secret that Kandi wants another child and since she is set to get married in a few weeks, it is only a matter of time before these two try to have another child. What do you think of her wanting a boy? And do you think it was wrong for Kenya to call her out like that?
