If you were like me and 2.2 million other University of Utah patients, you may have received a letter telling you about the loss of several medical files that contained personal and financial information. University of Utah officials just announced that the lost medical records have been retrieved. There will be a press conference on Wednesday at 1 p.m, detailing the loss and perhaps where those records have been.

On June 2nd, a Perpetual Storage courier picked up the tapes containing the files. Instead of transporting them to the storage facility, the courier drove home and parked his car overnight. The tapes were stolen from his car sometime that night. The University of Utah has suspended deliveries with Perpetual Storage. It is alleged that courier did two things wrong; he used his own car to transport the files, and instead of transporting the files directly to the storage facility, he took the files home.

Two class action lawsuits have resulted from the fiasco, both claimants alleging that the University of Utah and Perpetual Storage placed them at risk of stolen identity.

For answers to your questions about the theft, please go to the University of Utah's healthcare website at www.healthcare.utah.edu/billingrecordstheft or call 1-866-581-3599.

The Jazz had the 23rd, 44th and 53rd picks in the NBA draft. With their 23rd pick, the Jazz acquired seven-foot center Kosta Koufos from Ohio State University. The next pick went to seven-foot-one center Ante Tomic from Croatia on the 44th pick. And ending their draft this year on the 53rd pick, the Jazz selected six-foot-nine forward Tadija Dragicevic.

It seems the Jazz are looking for a big man to fill in the middle. We should be able to get our first peek at them in Jazz uniforms when they take the floor in the Rocky Mountain Revue.

The Rocky Mountain Revue:

• July 18-25
• Tickets are $10.00.
• SLCC students and faculty - $8.00.

With Revue game purchases on July 21, 22 and 24th, there will be free tickets given out for a Salt Lake Bees game on either July 27, 28, or 29th.

The Fourth of July is famous for barbeques, fireworks and massive fires that ignite the tinder-dry grasses growing on our mountains and roadsides. This year, the Salt Lake County Unified Fire Authority has put restrictions on fireworks in order to reduce the possibility of wildfires.

Fireworks are restricted:

• On the benches east of Wasatch Boulevard.
• West of I-15.
• South of 13800 South.
• East of Highland Drive in Draper.
• North of 12600 South in Herriman except Copper Creek.
• South of 14200 South.
• West of 6800 West.
• East of Wasatch Drive and Virginia Street.
• North of 11th Avenue.
• Both sides of City Creek Canyon.
• North of 500 North behind the Utah State Capitol Building.
• East of Beck Street and Victory Road.
• North of 1800 North.
• West of I-215
• All city parks.
• Alta City

Fireworks can be used between July 1-7 and July 21-27. Approved fireworks are the only fireworks that can be discharged without a permit. Those discharging unapproved fireworks, even in unrestricted areas, will be subject to a fine.

The I-80 Bridge construction project was delayed on Saturday because of a faulty beam that was flexing improperly. The Utah Department of Transportation will resume moving the bridges on Wednesday, June 24th.

Moving the twelve bridges has been the "largest and most ambitious project of it's kind in the world" according to a press release from UDOT. A 'bridge farm' was set up on the 1-80 and 1300 East loop, where the massive bridges were constructed on the side of the freeway to avoid having to close I-80 for long stretches of time. The bridges will be moved using Self Propelled Modular Transports (SPMT's), one bridge at a time. New bridges will be installed at Highland Drive, 900 East, 700 East, 600 East and 300 East.

Some I-80 Bridge Facts From UDOT:

• Combined, the seven bridge structures are 829 feet long and weigh more than 13.5 million pounds.
• If put end-to-end, the bridges would be nearly twice the height of Utah’s tallest building (the Well Fargo Center at 423 feet).
• The combined bridges weigh as much as 562 school buses or 270 backhoes.
