Dawn Shipley and her boyfriend waited until midnight Friday and then left their West Baltimore house. The couple was eager, her family said, to withdraw money from an ATM because Shipley's boyfriend's welfare check had just cleared. He took out the money, and she went to a bar and bought some cigarettes and maybe some beer, according to family members. About an hour later, about 1 a.m. Saturday, somebody shot and killed Shipley. She fell to the ground, bleeding on the sidewalk of the 500 block of Brunswick St. It is just blocks away from her home.

Skies should clear enough tonight for a view of the Orionid meteor shower. It returns each autumn as the Earth sweeps through debris left behind by Halley's Comet. The shower peaked this morning but remains at high levels for several days. You could see as many as 23 per hour far from urban lighting. They're fast, often bright, and half of them leave persistent trains. Look east after 10 p.m., but better between midnight and dawn, as the moon sets and the constellation Orion rises high overhead.

The weather in Florida looked promising today for a sunrise launch of NASA's Dawn mission to explore the mysterious dwarf planet Ceres and the giant asteroid Vesta. Liftoff from the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station was expected as early as 7:20 a.m., just seven minutes after sunrise. The Delta II rocket and its nine strap-on boosters are to carry the unmanned spacecraft to a 100-mile-high Earth orbit in just nine minutes. About an hour later, Dawn's third stage is to ignite to push the 1,600-pound spacecraft on its way toward the asteroid belt, between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
