On the heels of Johns Hopkins' announcement that the men's lacrosse team would join the Big Ten for the 2015 season, ESPN analyst Quint Kessenich had a few thoughts on the move. Kessenich is a former All-American goalkeeper for the Blue Jays. Do you have any concerns about the program's move to the Big Ten? I have two reservations - as you would with any kind of realignment. The first would be that I believe that teams - whatever the sport - when they change conference, they ultimately play themselves to the level of that conference.

As the saying goes, "two is better than one. " Though I'm not sure the adage was meant for weapon-wielding psychopaths. Kit was the original alleged Bloody Face and for a moment, the opening scene on this week's American Horror Story had viewers believing he would live up to that accusation. But do we really need another Bloody Face running rampant? Ryan Murphy decided no. Kit was only serving as a disguise for the real murderer: Alma. With one thrust of the axe Alma managed to kill Grace in the same way Grace murdered her own family.

Don't get into business to make money. The temptation to quit will be strongest just before you succeed. And take big risks — even if that means angering a ruler-wielding, 6-foot-tall nun. Those were among the lessons billionaire Bob Parsons, the founder of GoDaddy.com, shared with students at his alma mater, University of Baltimore, on Monday evening. Parsons, a 1975 graduate of the university, gave $1 million last summer to endow a professorship in digital communication, which blends computer programming, Web design and writing, among other skills.

While visiting classes on the first day of school, new Howard County Superintendent Renee Foose had a pedometer strapped to her waist as part of a systemwide program for employees that emphasizes health. By midmorning, she had already logged tens of thousand of steps, canvassing hallways, classrooms, weight rooms, media centers and cafeterias of the system she took over in July. "This is like a kid waking up on Christmas morning. That's exciting," said Foose, who joined other local, state and elected officials in ushering in the first day of the academic calendar year for many jurisdictions.
