BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KBAK/KBFX) — A ski-mask wearing man broke into an apartment early Thursday and sexually assaulted two people, the Kern County Sheriff's Office said.
The break-in occurred around 6 a.m. in the 2900 block of Virginia Avenue, according to the sheriff's office. All four apartment residents were bound, and two of them were assaulted.
The attacker was described as 6-foot tall with a medium build and dark skin. He wore a hood sweatshirt and ski mask.
A very similar assault took place in mid-July on Columbus Street, but the sheriff's office made no mention of a connection. Eyewitness News is following up with the sheriff's office for additional information.
Anyone with information helpful to the investigation is asked to call the sheriff's office at (661) 861-3110. Anonymous text tips can be sent to TIP411 (847411). Type the keyword "KCSO" prior to the message.

TONAWANDA, NY-- The City of Tonawanda Police Department say they found the man wanted in the camera thefts at BJ's Wholesale Club.
Detectives say they received several tips from people through Crime Stoppers.
Anthony M. Autrino, 37, of Lancaster, turned himself in to police Tuesday after seeing his picture on the news.
Autrino is charged with one count of Grand Larceny for an incident on 01/21/12 where he allegedly stole a camera valued at $1299.99, and one count of Petit Larceny for an incident on 01/28/12 where it is alleged he stole a camera valued at $799.99.
There's no word from police on if they've identified the woman in the white coat they were also looking for in connection to the thefts.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Clark County commissioners have appointed Tyrone Thompson to replace expelled Nevada Assemblyman Steven Brooks.
Board members voted unanimously Tuesday to select Thompson, who works as a regional initiatives coordinator for the Southern Nevada Regional Planning Coalition and previously worked with the state and county.
Thompson was one of two applicants recommended by Assembly leaders to take the Assembly District 17 seat.
Other applicants for the seat included Meli Pulido, Glynn Coleman, Michelle Jotz, Michael Kelly, Mujahid Ramadan, William Robinson II, Kelly Thomas and Brandon Casutt.
Brooks was expelled from the Assembly March 28 after fellow lawmakers testified that they didn't feel safe with him in the legislative building. He was arrested twice and hospitalized for a mental evaluation before the move, and arrested again in California hours after the expulsion.

Amherst High School players and coaches celebrate their victory against Lancaster High School during their WIAA Division 5 state championship football game Nov. 15.

We devoted today's Page 1A to the top five stories in the Stevens Point area in 2012.
We based our picks on criteria such as community response and how popular the stories were on our website and mobile apps.
Stories about the tragic deaths of four young men, the demolition of the downtown mall, an election cycle that never seemed to end and the strange tale of a family who cashed their presumed dead mother's Social Security checks will all be remembered.
But there also was a lot of good stuff that happened in 2012. Here are a few things we deemed worthy of praise:
? Our community, once again, comes through to help those less fortunate.
Big nonprofit drives this holiday season met or exceeded their fundraising goals, including the Portage County United Way, The Salvation Army Red Kettle drive and the Journal's Stock the Shelves campaign.
Our area continues to be a beacon of giving in central Wisconsin - even when times are tight - and we expect that to continue in 2013.
? We did many stories on those who help our community yearround in 2012: Pat Hilpert, a retired nurse who washes and donates stuffed animals to children in need; churches that gave food and clothing to the less fortunate this holiday; and a local potato grower that donated 80,000 pounds of potatoes to Hurricane Sandy victims.
Two individuals stood out this year for their giving: Jennifer Brilowski and Noah Lamaide.
Brilowski, 40, saw her crusade to make 12-12-12 Aaron Rodgers Day in Wisconsin come to fruition, all the while raising money for young cancer patients.
Lamaide, 13, used his charity website to help raise $10,000 to save his grandmother's house from foreclosure, get donations for Operation Bootstrap and, for his birthday, he asked people to do something nice for someone else in honor of him.
In turn, he's been featured in People magazine, on national television and on the Disney Channel.
He's also inspired other kids to do good things in Stevens Point.
? The Amherst football team was heroic in its own right when in November it brought home the school's first state title.
It was obvious the village of just more than 1,000 people was proud. The village supported its team by painting the town in school colors of blue and white, and many residents trekked to Madison to see the team beat Lancaster.
A crowd gathered the Sunday after the win to give the team a enthusiastic welcome home.
It's human nature to look forward to a new year and wish farewell to the old one.
There was much to be thankful for, and much to mourn in 2012.
As we peek into 2013, we urge everyone to try dwell more on the positives and search for solutions to the problems we will face as individuals and as a nation.
Happy New Year, and we look forward to a wonderful 2013.

once I've defined key bindings for a plugin, is there anyway to retrieve them from the plugin itself, for instance when a developer modifies them?
For instance, given the key bindings here below, how can I retrieve "super+shift+c" if I want to know which key binding can trigger "test2"?

Abortion is statistically much safer for a woman than carrying her pregnancy to term, according to Dr. Tom Shieh, who sent a letter to the governor, stating the recently passed "informed consent" abortion bill could actually persuade women to have an abortion.
Shieh, a gynecologist and obstetrician, says he is pro-life and supports the bill's intent, to decrease the number of abortions.
But he said one section of the bill, which requires the physician to tell the woman "the medical risks associated with carrying the child to term," could defeat the bill's purpose. ...

A potential deterrent to obtaining local control with radiation therapy for head and neck cancer is the problem of accelerated repopulation of cancer cells. This becomes more problematic after several weeks of treatment. The rationale for this study of a concomitant boost to treat oropharyngeal cancer arises in response to this problem and attempts to overcome it by shortening the treatment time.
Two hundred patients with T1-T4 N0-3 squamous cell cancer of the oropharynx were treated with radiation therapy including the twice daily (concomitant boost) schedule for the last twelve fractions of the treatment. This reduces the overall treatment time to a median of 42 days.

I earned my doctoral degree from Peabody College in 1971. Two of my daughters earned their bachelor's degrees at Vanderbilt, one in arts and science and one in nursing.
I have discontinued supporting Vanderbilt financially. The administration continues to discriminate against faith-based organizations like FCA, Navigators, InterVarsity and the Christian Legal Society.
Under the "all-comers policy," Vanderbilt will not allow these Christian youth organizations to expect their officers to lead in Bible study and prayer. If student clubs cannot have standards for their officers in their bylaws to believe in and support the missions of those organizations, those clubs will be poorly led and lose credibility.
What a shame for a university founded under the auspices of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, to reach a point where faith-based organizations are no longer welcome to serve and minister to the undergraduate and graduate students at Vanderbilt. So sad!

Indianapolis is a world-class city that for many years has built a strong reputation as a great host to conventions, tourists and sporting events from around the world. Convention and tourism business is one of the largest industries, bringing more than 20 million people to our city every year, supporting 75,000 jobs and pumping more than $4 billion into our economy annually. That industry is now being threatened by panhandling. After many unsuccessful attempts to address this growing problem, Mayor Greg Ballard, Indianapolis Downtown Inc., the Indy Chamber, homeless support organizations and many others developed a proposal to deal with this issue that is keeping many families, conventions and visitors from enjoying our beautiful Downtown.
Many cities have enacted sensible bans on panhandling and solicitation in their critical tourism and business areas. Fort Lauderdale doesn't allow panhandling or soliciting on its beaches or near its beachfront businesses. San Antonio enacted a similar ban in its highly popular Riverwalk district. I recently introduced a proposed ordinance modeled after those laws to the City-County Council.
Our city has already lost 10 conventions where panhandling was listed as a key concern. Those lost events could have produced more than $6 million in visitor spending. Six other conventions are considered at-risk and another nine may cancel or not rebook due to panhandling concerns. These lost opportunities could result in tens of millions of dollars that won't be spent in Indy, but rather will go someplace else. That translates into a loss of more than $3 million in tax revenue that could be used for police, fire and roads.
Indianapolis is filled with kindhearted people. We want to help those less fortunate get off the street and better their lives. I myself donate frequently to the missions and recovery houses in town. But studies have shown that less than 1 percent of Downtown panhandlers are homeless. So, this isn't about the less fortunate. It's about stopping a racket that prays on our goodhearted spirit.
I respect the constitutional rights of individuals and also want to make Indianapolis a safe place to visit. This proposal has been thoroughly studied and is modeled after the ban in Fort Lauderdale, which was upheld by a federal appeals court.
This proposal is a commonsense solution to ensure Indianapolis remains a welcoming place for conventions and families.

The dismissal of Roseann Buck as the executive director of Delta State University's Bologna Performing Arts Center in Cleveland is raising questions. Buck wonders if her battle with cancer is the reason, but school officials have declined to comment. Her predecessor also was fired without warning in 2009.
- Filed Under
State officials aren't required to explain why they choose not to renew an employee's contract, but Roseann Buck said she can't think of why Delta State University wouldn't want her back - except for the fact she has breast cancer.
Community members angered about her dismissal as executive director of the Bologna Performing Arts Center at the Cleveland school are speaking out on her behalf.
"This is one of the most unfair and cruel treatments of an employee I've ever heard of," said Carol Tatum, a BPAC donor. "Despite fighting cancer and going through surgery, chemo and radiation treatments, ...

8:45 p.m. Power back for another 10,000 JCP&L customers
Five hours and 8,000 linemen helped turn the lights back on for about 10,000 Jersey Central Power & Light customers as of 7 p.m. Saturday.
The utility company planned to work through the night to restore power to the majority of its customers by late Saturday evening and would work through Sunday to have nearly all of its customers with power again by Sunday evening, spokesman Mark Durbin said.
Well continue to work until we get those done, he said.
Jersey Central Power & Light has been working to bring power back for residents who lost it during superstorm Sandy and, in many cases, lost it again when the noreaster blanketed the shore region in up to about a foot of snow.
As of 8:30 p.m. Saturday, 9,636 customers in Monmouth County and 11,298 customers in Ocean County were still in the dark.
The company has an additional 30,000 customers without power on the barrier island and in some Shore communities where the devastation was very severe, Durbin said.
Were making progress as far as the transmission piece of the system, but because of the damage, were working with the state and local officials on developing a timeline and a full restoration plan, he said.
7 p.m. Belmar lifts part of curfew
Belmar has lifted its curfew WEST of B Street; effective immediately. Area east of B St. is still under curfew until 6 p.m. to 6 a.m.
5:35 p.m. Cablevision provides update to service
Cablevision Systems Corporation today issued the following Saturday afternoon updated progress report on its restoration effort:
North New Jersey has 19,382 Optimum households without power, 564,555 households with Optimum service and 3,780 without Optimum service. In southern New Jersey 62,342 Optimum customers are without power, 419,430 have Optimum service, and 4,560 do not have Optimum service.
More than 50,000 Optimum WiFi hotspots across its Tri-State service area were operational as of Saturday. Optimum WiFi hotspots provide free wireless Internet access for Optimum Online customers.
Customers who have power but no Optimum service should call their local customer service number or go to Optimum.net to report the issue.
The company has announced that customers can receive credits for the days they have not had Optimum service, even if the disruption was caused by a power outage. The company is asking customers to call after their Optimum service is restored, in order to calculate and apply the full credit to which a customer is entitled.
Cablevision will continue to update costumers on its ongoing restoration efforts on Optimum.net.
4:40 p.m. Red Cross increases distribution items in NJ
OCEAN The American Red Cross will be at several locations in New Jersey on Sunday with bulk distribution of clean up kits, water, shovels and other items to assist those who have been affected by Sandy with the next steps to recovery.
Additional information about the other bulk distribution sites, including fixed and mobile feeding sites for NJ coastal communities can be found at http://newsroom.redcross.org.
2:40 p.m. JCP&L: 60K costumers on N.J. mainland without power, majority restored by late Saturday
Morristown, N.J. Almost 8,000 linemen are part of a massive effort to restore power to Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L) customers following last weeks Hurricane Sandy and this weeks noreaster. Approximately 60,000 JCP&L customers on the New Jersey mainland remain without power. The majority of these customers, including those who experienced new outages as a result of the noreaster, will have power restored by late this evening. In some communities where service wires to individual homes must be replaced, power will be restored by late Sunday evening In the Barrier Islands and some of the shoreline communities where the storm devastation is most severe, about 30,000 customers remain without power. While progress has been made in repairing the transmission system to this area, JCP&L continues working with state and local officials on developing and implementing a full restoration plan and timeline to connect affected customers safely.
As local power lines are repaired and put back in service, damage to individual customer service wires may delay final restoration to homes. To expedite the restoration process, JCP&L is working with local officials to identify these affected single no lights customers to see if a repair needs to be made to the home by a licensed electrician before service can be reconnected.
To report an outage, customers should call 1-888-LIGHTSS (1-888-544-4877). If power has been restored to your neighbors, but your power remains out, be sure to report the outage. The issue could be isolated to an individual home and require further repairs. As restoration work continues, customers are cautioned never to touch downed lines. Always assume downed wires are carrying electricity and keep children and pets away from them. Downed wires should be reported immediately to your electric company or local police or fire department.
1:50 p.m. Saturday: Natural gas restoration update
New Jersey Natural Gas today provided the following updates of our assessment and restoration work in the portions of our system damaged during Hurricane Sandy:
Bay Head to Seaside
We have completed our assessments of main in the shut-off portion of our system from Bay Head to Seaside. Due to the extensive damage in this area, lack of access remains an issue, but we have been able to complete 65 percent of our service assessments. We are developing our re-pressurization plan, and our installation plan for the main that was damaged near the Mantoloking Bridge.
Monmouth County
We are planning for the re-pressurization of 5.2 miles of main in Sea Bright. We have completed 43 percent of our service assessments in coastal Monmouth, and installed 350 feet of main. In the Bayshore region of the county, we have completed 96 percent of our service assessments.
Ocean County Mainland
We have completed 4,900 service assessments. 1,180 meters are ready for natural gas restoration, and 200 meters have been turned back on.
Long Beach Island
We will begin implementing our service restoration plan for Long Beach Island this Sunday, November 11. Details on the schedule of LBI restoration work are available at www.njng.com.
Federal, New Jersey and local safety codes prohibit tampering with natural gas meters and service lines. Even if natural gas service has not yet been restored to your area, this could significantly hamper efforts to restore service.
If you smell an odor of natural gas, leave the building immediately. Do not light matches, touch electrical switches or appliances, or use your telephone. From a safe location, customers should notify us of all gas leaks immediately at 1-800-GAS-LEAK.
1:40 p.m. Volunteers help Belmar clean up damage left by Sandy
BELMAR -- Hundreds of volunteers swarmed through twn this morning to help residents clean up the damage from Superstorm Sandy.
The Jersey Shore chapter of the Surfriders Foundation used their monthly meeting to lend a hand in tearing out waterlogged drywall and other damaged items.
The group selected Belmar because the area had been so hard hit by the storm and the town staff had a well-organized structure to accept volunteer help, said John Weber, the northeast regional manager for the Surfrider Foundation.
At least 150 people signed up to volunteer through Surfriders, who were then dispersed to addresses where the owners had registered with Belmar officials that help was needed.
Brooke Kaufmann, 32, came from Madison with her sister, Jackie, 24, and a friend, Bess Hammitt, 25, to help with the cleanup. Brooke Kaufmann said it was important to help her childhood community recover.
Its just the right thing to do to make sure it comes back, she said. We enjoyed growing up here. Were responsible for taking care of it when its in a rut to bring it back to its old self.
12:40 p.m. For police and first responders, many lessons learned from Sandy
Throughout Superstorm Sandy, first responders and government officials have worked tirelessly to care for their residents.
While many said extensive preparation and community cooperation helped their towns function before and after the storm, this once-in-a-lifetime event also gave officials a variety of learning curves.
They used some techniques that worked well and some that needed adjustment, and it often varied from town to town.
For instance, the Barnegat Police Department found huge success by disseminating storm information through its Facebook page. The roughly 20,000-person township attracted 80,000 visitors to its Facebook page, said Lt. Keith Germain.
Yet Aberdeen officials, during a special meeting with residents Thursday, acknowledged that the townships methods for communicating did not properly account for a situation where the municipality would be without power for days.
The plan was for information to be spread via reverse-911 calls and on Aberdeens website, Police Chief John Powers said. But once the power went out, township officials struggled to update the site, he said.
The reverse-911 calls, known as Code Reds, often went to landlines that were dead or to cell phones without a charge.
Weve become too dependent on it, Powers said of the Internet. We will make the necessary changes and we will do a better job next time.
12:40 p.m. AAA Mid-Atlantic: Gas prices on the rise
Motorists are seeing higher prices at the pumps in many parts of New Jersey, a temporary impact from Hurricane Sandy.
AAA Mid-Atlantic says the average price of regular gasoline in New Jersey on Friday was $3.65, up 9 cents from last week. Thats also much higher than the price from a year ago, when motorists were paying $3.31.
Meanwhile, the national average price fell by 4 cents to $3.46. Thats still higher than the national average from a year ago, which was $3.43.
Analysts say gas prices should start falling in New Jersey in the coming weeks, noting that most gas stations are now operating again and state-imposed gas rationing in 12 of the states 21 counties will likely be ending soon. Demand for gas is also expected to decrease.
11:40 a.m. Power restoration
Most utility customers who lost power when Hurricane Sandy socked New Jersey should have their service restored by Saturday night.
Public Service Electric & Gas says roughly 12,700 customers remain without power from the hurricane, down from an original 1.7 million. And another 8,300 who lost electricity during Wednesday nights noreaster were also still awaiting restoration.
Jersey Central Power & Light had about 84,866 customers without power Saturday morning. Orange & Rockland had reduced the number of its customers without power to 100, while Atlantic City Electric had roughly 2,400 outages.
11:10 a.m. Brookdale Rebuilds!
As a part of the efforts to help the community, Brookdale has asked FEMA and the Central Jersey Blood Center bloodmobile to participate in an open house tomorrow, Sunday, Nov. 11, from noon-3 p.m., and both organizations agreed. There will also be a nonperishable food drive to benefit the Foodbank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties, a warm blanket drive and a gently used clothing drive to benefit Lunch Break in Red Bank.
FEMA will be on hand on Sunday to ask questions and that donations of blood, food, clothing and blankets are needed, if they want to help.
10:45 a.m. Brick VFW post serves as a major staging area for disaster workers
Five-hundred people departed to the barrier island section of town to gather belongings from their storm-ravaged homes.
The group left from VFW Post 8867 on Adamston Avenue. The facility is a few hundred feet from Mantoloking Road, which ends at Route 35 after crossing over the ill-fated bridge that was damaged during superstorm Sandy.
This is our third day of doing trips via bus from the VFW, Terry Fearon Sr., the posts vice commander, said.
On Monday, there were trips to Curtis Point, then we had Mantoloking Shores on Tuesday, said Ed Sofield, post commander. Most of these are second homes, so the personal belongings were minute.

Time for the Friday Mailbag. As always, if you have questions, send them to me via Twitter at BFeldmanCBS.
From @nrwester anything to be said abt the fact Luck had 2 top-15-pick lineman at school? What happens when he see's pressure?
We see that the guy also has sub-4.7 speed and can run like an WILL linebacker and we'll see that he's about as savvy as any QB prospect coming out of college in a very long time.
Andrew Luck did have two very gifted O-linemen in front of him in 2011. It also should be pointed out that the other three starters were inexperienced guys. Here's a better point on Luck: He led Stanford to 23 wins in the past two seasons while his best deep threat was a tight end. Wait till Andrew Luck gets some wide receivers who can separate and make yards after the catch.
I think he is going to be outstanding in the NFL. People know he's gifted, but I'm not sure people really just how smart, accurate and athletic or big this guy is. I would never use the words "cant' miss" to describe any QB prospect, but Andrew Luck is about as close as you're going to get at making the transition to the NFL.
From @AHBick who's your pick to win the Big 12? Full disclosure, I'm wearing crimson shades
With both Landry Jones and Mike Stoops returning to Norman this year, Oklahoma is my pick to win the Big 12. I think Mike Stoops will provide a spark to a defense that hasn't been quite as salty as what it was during his first stint at OU. There is plenty of talent for him to take advantage of in the back seven. This is also a team that got rocked by injuries last year to not only a bunch of gifted players, but guys who were also leaders (Ryan Broyles and Travis Lewis for starters). That adversity may help them in the coming year with how the young players were tested.
I expect Oklahoma State to take a step back this year given the losses of their stars on offense. Plus Bedlam is in Norman this season. Baylor is likely to take an even bigger drop without RG3 and Kendall Wright. I'm not sure if K-State can be as successful just because the Wildcats won so many close games in 2011. It's hard to do that kind of thing two years in a row.
On the other hand, Texas will be improved. UT was so shaky on offense last year. There is a lot of good young talent there, but I'm skeptical they can be good enough at QB in 2012 to go from being a fringe Top 25 team to a legit Top 10 team.
The toughest competition for OU in the Big 12 race this year may come from the two newcomers. And the Sooners have to visit both WVU and TCU in 2012. Both have talented returning starters at QB with dynamic receiving corps. The Mountaineers probably will have the most explosive offense in the league and playing up there especially in mid-November is never easy. I still see OU as the most complete team in the conference though.
From @IceCoLD53 Ohio and ND are spread teams now. Is that helping UM recruiting for Hoke?
I actually think that has little to do with Michigan's recruiting success right now. The only real position where Urban Meyer's scheme would affect Michigan as it relates to recruiting needs is at QB, and the Wolverines got a commitment from Shane Morris long before the Buckeyes hired the former UF coach. Notre Dame just signed a QB, Gunner Kiel, who is no running quarterback. In terms of skill set, Kiel isn't much different from what Michigan is looking for now.
The big reason why UM is hot in recruiting has to do with the vibe of the program: The perception is the Wolverines are on the rise. They just won the Sugar Bowl. Everyone around the place has bought in that Brady Hoke is exactly what Michigan needs and he "gets" Michigan. The fact that they finally beat Ohio State only hammered that point home even harder. Kids and their high school coaches are excited about Michigan.
From @ChrisMonti Rutgers '12 outlook, one step back, then forward?
I'm not overly optimistic about that because the Big East is going to be so watered down, the perception is the conference is gonna be even less relevant. My hunch is it'll be that much harder for RU to compete with schools from the Big Ten and others when they go head-to-head on top talent around the Northeast. Can Kyle Flood do much more than Greg Schiano did? We'll see. It has become a tougher spot because of the conference's situation.
From @jlwdiggs does gunner Kiel already have the starting qb spot locked down for the irish?
I doubt it. As I said a few weeks back, Brian Kelly is sky high on redshirt freshman Everett Golson, who just seems to have that mythical "IT" quality, something this program has been lacking for a while.
It's never easy for a true freshman to come in and take over at QB. The issue with Kiel is, how does he cope with grinding away and competing for this job? If you heard California-based QB coach George Whitfield (the guy who trained Cam Newton before the draft and is working with Andrew Luck now) on our Signing Day Central show, he voiced some concerns about that after working with Kiel and other touted QB prospects at last summer's Elite 11 competition.
From @donniejonesjr What are the State of Alabama chances of keeping the BCS title for a fourth year in a row?
I'd categorized it as decent. Expect Bama to open the year in the preseason top four. The Tide's number of returning starters on both sides of the ball is relatively low, but they have some key guys back in emerging QB A.J. McCarron, coming off his strong performance in the BCS title game, the nucleus of the O-line and a quality big back in Eddie Lacy. Plus, you can never underestimate Nick Saban. He is that good of a coach. But I'm skeptical because they did lose a lot of proven playmakers on defense; they have to visit both LSU and Arkansas, and because it is just so hard to repeat in college football, the odds are really against them.
Auburn's chances, given all the staff turnover and inexperience, makes them too much of a long shot.
From @shockjay Who will have more wins next year: Kansas (Big 12) or Missouri (SEC)?
Considering how awful KU was in 2011, I don't see the Jayhawks making that big of a jump in Charlie Weis' first season, although ND transfer Dayne Crist will give the offense a needed spark. Anything more than four wins is overly optimistic, though because the defense is brutal.
Meanwhile, their archrival does go into a much tougher league, but Mizzou returns a good, young QB in James Franklin and brings in the best WR recruit in the country in Dorial Green-Beckham. They should be even better on offense than they were in 2011, and they were pretty formidable on O, ranking 12th in total offense and 30th in scoring. We'll get a much truer gage on how the Tigers fit with the transition on Sept. 8 when Georgia comes to Columbia. The Dawgs have a strong defense and an experienced QB.
>I could see Mizzou 4-2 by the time Bama visits, but then the schedule gets thicker. My hunch is they can win seven games, but beyond that it's a stretch.
From @crsegar What would it take for Edsall to be fired after this season?
I've always thought that it's crazy to hire a guy and then fire him after just two or three seasons. You're just not giving the guy a chance to recruit to his system and establish his program. It does take time, and in some cases more than others. Now, if there is a scandal or NCAA issues, it's a different story in regards to how much room a new coach merits. And, for as bad as the Danny O'Brien transfer saga looks, it's nothing that some wins can't remedy from the Terps standpoint.
You almost have no choice but to ride this out for another two seasons if you're Maryland. Randy Edsall's far from a first-time head coach. Maryland knew, or at least should've known what it was getting. Short of another 2-10 season, I don't see how they'd fire him, and even then, I'm not sure they'd pull the plug. Financially, it'd be such a hit for the school, but obviously thus far it's been disastrous but they're on the hook now and they have to give him a chance to turn things around.
From @Brad_Freeman What did you think of your trip to College Station, and your impressions of the new coaching staff?
It was a good day there. Kevin Sumlin's staff is one of the biggest reasons why I think he was such a good hire for A&M. My story from College Station will run on the site in a week or so.

Junior third baseman Ty Young went 3 for 5 with two triples and a career-best five RBIs to power the 10th-ranked University of Louisville baseball team to a 10-5 victory over No. 15 Notre Dame on Thursday night in the opener of a three-game series at Jim Patterson Stadium.
Young, who also scored twice and stole his 13th base, had an RBI triple in the third and a bases-loaded triple in the fourth to make it 6-1. He became the first U of L player with two triples in a game since Andrew Clark in 2008.
Zak Wasserman, Shane Crain and Sutton Whiting added two hits apiece, and Cole Sturgeon drove in three runs for the Cardinals.
Junior right-hander Chad Green (4-2) gave up five hits and four runs in five innings for the victory. Dace Kime allowed a run and a hit in 12/3 innings, and sophomore lefty Kyle McGrath struck out five in 21/3 shutout innings for his first career save.
The Cardinals (20-5 overall) and Fighting Irish (15-7) are both 2-2 in the Big East Conference. The teams will meet again at 6 p.m. today and 1 p.m. Saturday.

Begun in 1999, the Cowboy Limited Edition series showcases original western art by illustrator Robert Armstrong on sturdy HPL (high pressure laminate) Martin guitars that sound as good as they look.
The Cowboy V Limited Edition's colorful top features C. F. Martin Chairman Chris Martin, wife Diane Repyneck and young daughter Claire Francis Martin on horseback in a western landscape near sunset, with Chris serenading his wife and daughter on guitar while their trusty dog "Buddy" trots alongside. Although Chris Martin appears on previous Cowboy Limited Editions (he is the man with the branding iron on Cowboy IV), this is the first time the entire family has been portrayed.
A modified 0 size 14-fret with a short, easy-to-play 23" scale, the Cowboy V makes a great student, travel or living room guitar. The top is matched to back and sides of subtly patterned, matte finished Crosswalk Pattern HPL and a modified low oval neck of natural Stratabond for durability and impressive Martin tone. The headstock features a black textured HPL headplate with matching Gotoh black tuners and the familiar C. F. Martin decal logo in silkscreened gold. The end and strap pins also are black, as are the Micarta fingerboard and bridge, the Corian nut, and the TUSQ saddle. Only 500 Martin Cowboy V Limited Edition guitars will be produced. Each will be delivered in a padded gig bag and each will bear a special interior Cowboy V Limited Edition label that will be numbered in sequence with the edition total. Authorized C. F. Martin dealers will take orders for the Cowboy V until the edition is fully subscribed and the names of participating Martin dealers will be posted on the Martin website.

^^Yes it was. We watched 'A Haunting in Salem,' (not so good) while trying to help DG fix her one laptop. Her son interjecting random comments was funny. And we met a new member to the HM family- ZCool brought his wife to the conversation. Funny gal, likes the genre, got some knowledge. I don't know how Z got that lucky... At least Vampy won't have to feel alone anymore!

The Iona Grammar eighth-grade basketball team.

The Iona Grammar eighth-grade boys basketball team has won more than 100 league games in a row. That's right. It's not a typo.
In fact, heading into this weekend, the team had won 117 in a row.
Almost as remarkable is the number of games the team plays each year. The streak has been accomplished in just three seasons. Playing in both the Westchester Catholic Schools League and the CYO "A" Division, Iona Grammar will play 60-70 games this season - sometimes six games in two days. The team began the weekend 19-0 in the WCSL, and 3-0 in the just-started CYO season. ...

text: Lovely and flavorful, Jackson Wonder was introduced in 1888, quickly becoming an American favorite. A rich chestnut color, speckled with maroon, the beans have a bright, nutty flavor. With a compact bush habit, the prolific plants only grow 18-24" tall, so harvesting is quick and easy. One cold-hardy lima bean, Jackson Wonder performs beautifully through the warmer parts of Zone 5 when other limas have given up.

Carnival's Arison steps down as CEO after cruise incidents
The 63-year-old Arison, Carnival's largest shareholder, will hand the job on July 3 to Arnold W. Donald, a director for 12 years, Miami-based Carnival said in a statement. Arison, son of founder Ted Arison, said he suggested splitting the chairman and CEO roles to align the world's largest cruise operator with best practices. The company didn't conduct an outside search, he said on a conference call.
Arison steps aside after crises that generated cable-news coverage and forced price cuts to fill Carnival berths. An engine-room fire on the Triumph ship in February left 3,100 passengers stranded at sea for days with limited food and toilet service. At least two other Carnival vessels were involved in incidents, leading to canceled voyages and customer refunds.
"I view my role as doing whatever Arnold needs me to do," Arison said on a conference call with investors. "It's really going to be a collaborative thing between me and Arnold to decide what are the best uses of my time."
Donald, 58, founded and led Merisant, a company whose products include tabletop sweetener brands Equal and Canderel. He held senior management roles at Monsanto Co. over more than 20 years, including president of the consumer and nutrition unit and president of its agricultural division.
The change is likely to be well-received by investors, said Steven Wieczynski, an analyst with Stifel Nicolaus & Co., in a report to clients, citing the benefits of fresh perspectives on the company's practices and processes. He said the change may also pull Arison, who is also owner of the Miami Heat basketball team, out of the media's spotlight.
"Investors we have spoken to in recent months, particularly in light of the company's recent mishaps, expressed it could work to the company's advantage to bring about change in the executive suite," said Wieczynski, who rates the stock a buy.
Second-quarter profit topped estimates that had been lowered by analysts in the wake of the Triumph incident. Bookings for the remainder of the year are running behind 2012, at lower prices, the company said.
Howard Frank, Carnival's vice chairman, said on the call that the company's troubles this year would hurt profit by 50 cents a share, compared what the company expected before any of the incidents, citing lower revenue and increased repair and marketing costs.
The Carnival brand continues to see lower bookings, Frank said, and it may be two to three years before that line sees its business return to previous levels.
For the second quarter ended May 31, Carnival reported net income almost tripled to $41 million, or 5 cents a share, from $14 million, or 2 cents, a year earlier, when the company was still dealing with the fallout from the shipwreck of its Costa Concordia off the coast of Italy.
Excluding unrealized losses on fuel derivatives, profit fell to 9 cents a share from 20 cents, while exceeding the 7- cent average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Sales fell 1.7 percent to $3.48 billion in the quarter ended May 31. Analysts had projected revenue of $3.56 billion.
Carnival last month lowered its profit forecast for the second half of 2013, saying revenue per customer fell after the price cuts. The company reiterated its full-year profit will total $1.45 to $1.65 a share.
The company has made other personnel changes including naming a new head of corporate communications last week.
"There isn't much encouraging news in today's earnings release, other than, perhaps, new blood at the top," Nomura Securities analyst Harry Curtis said in a research note today.

Empowering people!
A reflection from Lynn Magnuson, CWS Regional Director for the Pacific Northwest
A pre-Haiti-quake reflection from Lynn Magnuson, CWS Regional Director for the Pacific Northwest
I am asked "Does Church World Service help with agriculture? Does CWS do peace and justice work? Is CWS involved with climate change discussions?"
Yes, yes, and yes! Local church people follow news stories, and are anxious to be told that they, through the work of CWS, are making a difference in the world. But the explanations aren't sexy, and they are difficult to do in 15 second sound bites. The situations are complicated, and the answers involved.
Most often the answers I give are in the form of stories about people.
"I met a man," is often the beginning. He lives in the Middle East and once grew melons, and made a good living. But then he no longer could get water for his fields, and now is forced to grow dry land crops. Obtaining water for his family is difficult, but CWS, through local partners, helped him build a cistern to collect and hold rainwater from his roof and patio. As we left, he said, "Please tell your people, Thank You!"
It is about a local farmer in Vietnam, where changes in the type of rice seed means, rather than one crop a year, there are two crops plus a season of growing flowers before the New Year. Smiles abound and children are fed.
Young people returning to the village in Cambodia, carrying firewood on their backs, shared their fears for the future because the forest is being sold to international companies who tear down the trees and plant orchards of nut trees for a cash crop. CWS has been working with Buddhist monks, teaching them how to be advocates for their people with the government. A small story, but with ramifications for the future.
In the places I have visited, and the stories I tell, CWS is not about flashy headline-grabbing work. It is about enabling local people to make changes that will make a difference for generations to come. It is about building coalitions so that together we can support people as they struggle in times of war, natural disasters and a changing future.
For all our people of faith, it is about feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, healing the sick, and so much more… It is about neighbors near and far.

In 2007 Nobel laureate James Watson eyed his genome for the very first time. Through more than 50 years of scientific and technological advancement, Watson saw the chemical structure he once helped to unravel now pieced into a personal genetic landscape that lay before him.
There was one small stretch of DNA on chromosome 19, however, that he chose to leave under wraps. That region coded for the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene. Since the early 1990s APOE has been a telling genetic marker of Alzheimer's risk: certain forms of it correlate strongly with the development of the disease. Watson's grandmother suffered from Alzheimer's, but without any reasonable treatments or proved preventive strategies, the discoverer of the double helix decided the information was too volatile, its revelation creating more potential harm than good.

REAL fact checking, not just paying it lip service.
This is KTVU is San Francisco covering the Asiana plane crash. It has since been reported that a summer intern at the NTSB "confirmed" these names, but a) who's taking confirmation from an intern; and b) how do you not hear these names and not realize it's a prank? I used to feel a bit bad for news organizations when stuff like this slipped through, or especially the Howard Stern listeners prank calling (I actually caught one live the night Princess Diana died), but they're more worried about being first than being correct, so they get what they deserve.
