Georgia Tech cruises past Alabama A&MThe home of Dallas Mavericks star Luka Dončić was burglarized on Friday night, the latest instance of an athlete's home being broken into. The break-in happened Friday night, the Dallas police department told USA TODAY Sports. Officials said officers responded to the home about 10:30 p.m. "The preliminary investigation determined that unknown suspects entered the property and took items. This investigation is ongoing," police said. The news of the incident was first reported by NBA reporter Marc Stein. Lara Beth Seager, Dončić's business partner, told Stein no on was present at the home during the incident. It was not announced what was taken from the home. "No one was home at the time, and thankfully Luka and his family are safe," Seager said. "Luka has filed a police report, and an investigation is ongoing." Dallas had a home victory against the Phoenix Suns on Friday, but Dončic did not play after suffering a calf injury during the Mavericks’ 105-99 Christmas Day loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is expected to be sidelined for at least a month. The burglary continues a wave of athletes who have had their homes broken into. The homes of the Kansas City Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were burglarized within 48 hours of each other in early October and Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow 's home was broken into while he was playing on "Monday Night Football ." Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Mike Conley Jr. were also victims of break-ins. The NFL and NBA have sent memos to all teams in their respective leagues warning about the high of burglaries. The NFL said organized criminals are increasingly targeting these homes and "law enforcement officials have noted these groups appear to exploit team schedules to target athletes' homes on game days." The NBA memo, a copy of which was obtained by The Associated Press, said the FBI has connected some burglaries to "transnational South American Theft Groups" that "incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices."Pep Guardiola admits he is questioning himself after Man City lose to Juventus

She also included a poll with the question, "Do you want breast reduction videos?" In a separate Instagram Stories video, Kailyn is seen holding up the peace sign while lying down in a dark room. The clip is captioned, "Out of surgery, lots of videos to come." Kailyn, who had undergone has spoken about her desire to undergo such plastic surgery before. Earlier this year, months after welcoming her sixth and seventh child, twins Valley and Verse , now 14 months old, the 32-year-old revealed she broke down in tears after she was denied a "boob job." "I call around. I'm making these consultations to get a boob job," Kailyn shared on the May 17 episode of her Barely Famous podcast . "You know what they told me? I need to lose 40 pounds...more like 50, but maybe get away with 40 pounds before they can even operate on me." She added, "That was extremely humbling." Kailyn, who shares her twins and son Rio , 2, with fiancé Elijah Scott and is also a mom to sons Isaac , 14, Lincoln , 11, Lux , 7, and Creed , 4, from previous relationships, has had plastic surgery before. In 2016, the reality star underwent a Brazilian butt lift and tummy tuck, her surgeon, Dr. Michael Salzhauer aka Dr. Miami, had confirmed at the time. "It was the best decision I ever made," Kailyn noted of her past procedures on her Baby Mama No Drama podcast in January. "The worst decision I ever made was not waiting until I was done having kids." The podcaster, who had her tubes tied after giving birth to her twins , added that she planned to get a breast reduction "no matter what." Read on to find out what more celebrities have said about their plastic surgeries and cosmetic procedures over the years... Kailyn Lowry The Teen Mom 2 star and mother of seven underwent a Brazlian butt lift and tummy tuck in 2016 and breast reduction surgery in December 2024. Gypsy Rose Blanchard Gypsy underwent a rhinoplasty and septoplasty (nose job) in April 2024, three months after she was released from prison (where she served seven years for her role in the murder of her mother Clauddine "Dee Dee" Blanchard ). Caroline Stanbury The Real Housewives of Dubai star publicly documented her November 2023 face lift and the recovery on social media. "I wanted people to see how, when you come out, the scars and the cuts and what it really looks like," she e xclusively told E! News of the procedure. "I literally looked like I'd been in a car crash and the car had won, but five days later you're presentable. Ten days later I was in a restaurant completely fine." As for why the Bravo star was so open about her face lift journey? As she noted, "Being on a reality TV show, obviously it's going to look weird if I come back next season looking 10 years younger, which I do, obviously." Selena Gomez The singer has said she has gotten Botox . Brandi Glanville The former Bravo star has been candid about her plastic surgery procedures in the past, including getting a nose job, having breast implants and dabbling with Botox and filler. And now, she's turned to CellSound's body sculpting treatment to tighten her stomach. "I have actual abs," she told People in an interview published March 21. "I have lines on my stomach that I haven't had since before I got pregnant. I think any mother knows after kids the elasticity of your skin will never be the same." Ariana Madix Responding to an Instagram user who accused the Vanderpump Rules star of getting lip filler, Botox, jawline contouring with liposuction and eyelid surgery, Madix clapped back by confirming all of her past cosmetic procedures . “i’ll tell you what i’ve had!” she wrote on Instagram in July 2024. “you’re partially correct. tox in 11’s, outer brow, and my neck. ellevate for my neck in 2019 by @theneckdoctor minimal lip filler bc my face is too small to handle very much and filler in my chin. absolutely no filler anywhere else and def no bleph yet. hope this helps! i’ll keep yall posted if i do anything else.” Jill Zarin "I'm bravely sharing that I had a lower facelift and a couple other minor tweaks," Jill said in a June 4 Instagram video , with a black bandage wrapped around her head. "I had a fat transplant put into my hands because I hated my hands, and the worst part was the lipo coming out of my leg to fill my hands. Believe it or not, that's the most pain I've had." The 60-year-old promised that she'll post side-by-side photos of her transformation once she heals, adding, "I just want to share my story and my journey." Brittany Cartwright The Valley star revealed she underwent facial liposuction before filming the new Bravo series. "I had work done on my double chin. We call it the turkey gobbler, runs in my family," she said on the March 14 episode of her When Reality Hits podcast. "No matter what I was going through, no matter how much weight I lost, I still felt I had something there." Martha Stewart After years of denying cosmetic procedures, the lifestyle expert recently confessed in the Feb. 8 episode of her eponymous podcast that she gets Botox, fillers and lasers to tighten her skin. "I don't think a lot about age," she explained, "but I don't want to look my age." Tori Spelling The Beverly Hills, 90210 star has spoken publicly about her nose job and her breast implants . Sharon Osbourne In addition to getting candid on using Ozempic for weight loss, the talk show host admitted that her 2021 facelift was "the worst thing that I ever did," explaining in December 2023, "I looked like Cyclops." Lady Gaga "I've never had any work-work done, but I went through a phase when I was smoking pot when I was really obsessed with getting facial injections," the "Born This Way" singer told radio host Howard Stern in 2013. "I was going to this strip mall in Chicago in the back...Everybody was like, 'You are a nut job.'...I'm telling you, I wasn't exactly in the best frame of mind, and I would smoke a bunch of joints and have some drinks and I would be like, 'Oh, let's go see my girl' and we would drive to this strip mall and I would get shot up with a bunch of whatever, Juvéderm, and then leave." She continued, "Now all the stuff is gone. Before I shot the 'Applause' video, [a photographer friend] was like, 'Gaga, I love you but if you don't stop injecting s--t in your face I'm going to just kill you.'" Bethenny Frankel The Real Housewives of New York star got breast implants in 2005, but removed them in 2008. "Now I feel comfortable," she told Life & Style . "If there's something you're not comfortable with and you can correct it, great." Olivia Colman The Crown star revealed that she's a fan of Botox. "I've had loads," the 50-year-old told BBC Radio 2 . Julie Chen In 2013, The Talk co-host revealed on the show that she got plastic surgery at the beginning of her career in order to make her eyes look bigger. "And after I had it done, the ball did roll for me," she said. "And I wondered, did I give in to the man?" She added, "I have to live with every decision that I've made. And it got me to where we are today. And I'm not going to look back." Jamie Lee Curtis "I've done it all," the actress told The Telegraph in 2002. "I've had a little plastic surgery. I've had a little lipo. I've had a little Botox. And you know what? None of it works. None of it." Jennifer Aniston "I had [a deviated septum] fixed–best thing I ever did," the actress told People in 2007. "I slept like a baby for the first time in years.

NeNe Leakes In 2010, the Real Housewives of Atlanta star revealed that she had had a nose job, a breast lift and liposuction. "I'm very comfortable and confident in myself," she told People . "I just wanted a tune up." Kim Zolciak In 2015, the reality star called Dr. Lenny Hochstein her "boob God" doctor for giving her perky breasts. Of course, the reality TV personality has been an open book about her other procedures , including a tummy tuck and lip injections. Lisa Rinna The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star had her lips injected with silicone at age 24. In 2010, she had some of the filler removed. "I find it so interesting that it's become such a big thing because I can't tell you how many girls have done their lips. I feel like I'm a pioneer," she said on Today in 2013. "I was one of the first ones to ever do it and be honest about it."She also said, "I would do it again. I never had a career before I had the lips so my lips have had their own career!" Heidi Montag In 2009, at just 23 years old, the Hills star underwent a head-to-toe transformation, having 10 cosmetic procedures done in one day. In addition to Botox, chin reductions and a nose job, the reality star also got fat injections in her lips. Iggy Azalea The Aussie rapper said in the April 2015 issue of Vogue magazine that she got breast implants. "I did change something: Four months ago, I got bigger boobs! I'd thought about it my entire life," she revealed. Tyra Banks In her memoir , Perfect Is Boring, the supermodel revealed that she went under the knife early in her career. "I had bones in my nose that were growing and itching," she wrote in her book. "I could breathe fine, but I added cosmetic surgery. I admit it! Fake hair, and I did my nose." Kim Kardashian "I really, genuinely care about looking good," the SKKN founder told Allure for its August 2022 issue. "I probably care more than 90 percent of the people on this planet. It's not easy when you're a mom and you're exhausted at the end of the day or you're in school, and I'm all of the above. I do my beauty treatments usually late at night. After everyone's in bed, I'm doing laser treatments." Kim revealed she's also gotten "a little bit of Botox," but hasn't dabbled with filler on her lips or cheeks, revealing, "No filler. Never filled either one, ever." Kristin Cavallari During an Instagram Stories Q&A on Aug. 23, the reality TV star didn't shy away from answering a fan's question about her boobs. "Gonna keep it real with y'all," Kristin began her response. "Got a lift after breast feeding all 3 kids." While The Hills alum isn't opposed to cosmetic procedures, she admitted she's "never done" Botox. "It's not for me. But I've seen it look amazing on some people," she wrote. "My concern is that we don't know the long term effects of it (and I don't mean 5-10 years, I mean like 20 years) and I think your face is muscle, so we need to work it out the same way we would any other muscle." John Stamos In his new memoir, If You Would Have Told Me , John opened up about feeling insecure with his appearance, which led him to get two nose jobs. "That nose," he wrote. "It bothers me." "My nose looks kind of pushed up like Peter Pan or something," he shared of the initial procedure. "So on my next hiatus, I have it redone by Michael Jackson's plastic surgeon." Sia The singer recently revealed she got a facelift. "I'm a pop star that normally hides my face and doesn't lie about s--t," she said at the 5th annual Daytime Beauty Awards in Los Angeles on Oct. 1.. "I got an amazing face lift from Dr. Ben Talei. He is incredible. And he is doing so much good work—and not just for the pop stars of the world." Nicki Minaj The rapper revealed she recent went under the knife. "I had to get a breast reduction," she told Vogue in a cover story published Nov. 9, "and actually I love it. I used to want a bigger butt, and now I look back and realize how silly that was." Vanessa recently shared the cosmetic treatments she gets, telling Page Six , "I'm due for Botox . I don't do filler and I have so much full movement that there is no Botox at all." When asked if she's thought about going under the knife, she replied, "That would be the one thing that I would probably put off for the very last thing. The technology now for lifting, sculpting, tightening, is incredible. And there's a machine for anything. I just got a microcurrent thing for your neck, it was called Forma and it's like a total package facial." The Sex and the City alum opened up about why she receives cosmetic injectables. "I'm in my 60s now and I'm all about battling aging in every way I can," Kim told The Sunday Times in an interview published June 4. "There are fillers, Botox, there's so many different things that you can investigate and try and see if it's for you. It's not just a vanity thing."

AUBURN — When Central Maine Community College’s criminal justice program began to run out of room, a decision was made to create a stand-alone building to house what can be noisy sessions with students firing blanks, shouting and simulating hostage situations or other scenarios. The Central Maine Community College maintenance crew — Brian Landry, left, Dan Graham and Matthew Walker — built the Public Service Simulation Center at CMMC in Auburn. Daryn Slover/Sun Journal The school has a maintenance team made up of three CMCC graduates, who were tapped to build what is known as the Public Service Simulation Center. The concrete, sprinkler system, heating and air conditioning and plumbing were contracted out. Everything else was done by the trio. Dan Graham is the facilities director at the school. He graduated from the electrical program in 2002, studied electromechanical engineering and was a foreman with a commercial construction company. Brian Landry graduated in 1997 and is the school’s electrician. Matthew Walker is a 2022 graduate of the carpentry program and is the school’s master carpenter. He was still a student when he began working on the building. “We built an electronics lab after I graduated,” Graham said. “The president of the college at the time hired myself and another former graduate to design the current electronics lab. And then when I graduated, they hired me on to build it.” The school saves a lot of money by doing such projects itself, but it is not focused solely on the bottom line, according to Graham. “An architect gave us basically the structural plans for the building,” he said, “and then basically everything else design wise was done by us.” That means everything from paint color to fixtures, ceiling, lighting and the layout of the rooms. The process allows the school to customize the building to the needs of the program at a fraction of the cost. In this case, it got a $2 million building for $1 million, paid with grant money and capital funds. The trade-off was time. It took twice as long to build, but it includes some unique features and functions. There is a classroom with all types of electronics, including cameras and microphones in the simulation areas so instructors can monitor what is happening live in a control room or play back specific scenes to show students what they did right or wrong. There is also an armory room where all the weapons outfitted with a laser system are locked down. Dan Graham stands in a doorway of the Public Service Simulation Center at Central Maine Community College in Auburn. The room has moveable walls so students or emergency workers in training can simulate dangerous situations. The lighting in the ceiling was created by the team from CMCC to suit the needs of the room and has been copied around campus. Daryn Slover/Sun Journal The back section of the building can be blacked out and has interlocking panels that can be assembled to simulate a house or building that trainees must navigate, fake blood and all. Locker rooms include showers so students can clean up after physical exercises in the grassy area behind the center, which can often include mud. There is also a garage that can be used for simulations that require more space. Walker had the sharpest learning curve of the trio, working one day a week on the building as he attended classes. “I would come in and we’d frame,” he said. “I got a really good part of setting the trusses on the roof, but then, by the time I finished graduating, we still had a lot of the exterior.” So he painted and installed tile in the bathrooms, ceiling tiles and custom ceiling tile lighting. To make it symmetrical, the tiles had to be centered in the room or hallway at an angle, which was challenging, Walker said, but one of his favorite parts of the project. “Putting that at an angle was a real highlight — it’s different,” he said. “You never see anything like that, you know. I mean, when you work in a job like this, and you start to notice those things.” The worst part, Walker said, was insulating the building. “We sheathed it, then we wrapped it in ice and water shield,” he said. “We wrapped it in foam, and then we wrapped it again in sheathing. So, we literally circled this building five times (to comply with codes), just before we could put siding on.” Walker was guided by the more experienced Graham, who acted as foreman and electrician Landry, who worked for 15 years in commercial construction before joining CMCC. For Landry, the toughest part was working alone for the most of the time. “I did all the electrical — if it’s an outlet, light projector on the wall fire alarm system, security system, ethernet cable, speakers, everything,” he said. “Wire up the boilers, wire all the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) equipment.” When Landry was not wiring something, he would help build walls or with anything else that needed be done. The best part, he said, was finally seeing the project completed. Other projects at the campus had to be prioritized, while some had to be put off until the building was completed. Matthew Walter stands outside the armory room used to store StressVest training weapons at the Public Service Simulation Center at Central Maine Community College in Auburn. Walker was a student when he began working on the building. He is now a master carpenter at the school. Daryn Slover/Sun Journal “I kind of like seeing the finished product, especially the amount of time we put into it,” Graham said. “The thing I don’t like about it is how much we lose on the rest of the campus, because there’s a lot of stuff that I walk by and you see nicks in the wall and like, man, I wish I had time to fix that, but I gotta put this fire out first.” All three men said they like to see how people react to the finished product, which is not the only project they have tackled together. “You get a lot more pride in what you do because you see it every day,” Graham said. “You see how people react to it, and that’s kind of my favorite thing in the whole project is watching other people react to the spaces when they go in.” Students use the center about 90% of the time. When school is not in session and on weekends, the facility is used by those in local, state and federal law enforcement for training. In their downtime, the three men have differing interests. Graham said he likes to work on antique cars. “I’ve got a lot of old race cars,” he said. “I like playing sports — basketball. I was national championship in basketball, so I like playing sports. I’m coaching my daughter’s team now.” Landry says one of the reasons he took the job was to be able to spend more time with his family. “Watching my kids grow up,” he said, “and being part of their sports teams. Coaching and being able to see their games, going to practices and just being a dad.” Landry said he also enjoys snowmobiling and a little golf, but mumbled something about getting too old to do some of the things he used to do. Walker, the youngest of the trio, said he loves that he can be the cross-country coach at Bruce M. Whittier Middle School in Poland. “I do a lot of restoring of antique furniture,” he said, “and I have a whole collection of old antique power tools that I’ve restored and hand tools that I’ve restored.” “Working” is a monthly feature highlighting an individual, group or business and focuses on what they do for their job.

It all stemmed from a seemingly small software glitch: Many older computer programs had coded dates using only two numbers for the year. At midnight on Dec. 31, a misinterpretation of "00" in the year 2000 might cause widespread errors leading to mass panic. The Clinton administration said that preparing the U.S. for Y2K was probably "the single largest technology management challenge in history." The bug threatened a cascade of potential disruptions — blackouts, medical equipment failures, banks shutting down, travel screeching to a halt — if the systems and software that helped keep society functioning no longer knew what year it was. These fears gave rise to another anxiety-inducing acronym: TEOTWAWKI — "the end of the world as we know it." Thankfully, the so-called "year 2000 problem" didn't live up to the hype. NPR covered Y2K preparations for several years leading up to the new millennium. Here's a snapshot of how people coped, as told to NPR Network reporters. Infrastructure systems braced for the worst Computer specialist and grassroots organizer Paloma O'Riley compared the scale and urgency of Y2K prep to telling somebody to change out a rivet on the Golden Gate Bridge. Changing out just one rivet is simple, but "if you suddenly tell this person he now has to change out all the rivets on the bridge and he has only 24 hours to do it in — that's a problem," O'Riley told reporter Jason Beaubien in 1998. So, why wasn't U.S. infrastructure ready in the first place? Stephanie Moore, then a senior analyst with Giga Information Group, told NPR it stemmed from a data-efficiency measure in the expensive early days of computers: formatting years using two digits instead of four, with most computers interpreting "00" as the year 1900. "Now, when we roll over to the year 2000, computers — instead of thinking it's 2001 — are going to think it's 1901," Moore said, adding Y2K would have been avoidable "had we used four-digit year dates all along." The date switchover rattled a swath of vital tech, including Wall Street trading systems, power plants and tools used in air traffic control. The Federal Aviation Administration put its systems through stress tests and mock scenarios as 2000 drew closer. "Twenty-three million lines of code in the air traffic control system did seem a little more daunting, I will say, than I had probably anticipated," FAA Administrator Jane Garvey told NPR in 1998. Ultimately there were no systemwide aviation breakdowns, but airlines were put on a Y2K alert. The crunch to safeguard these systems was a reminder that the technology underpinning people's daily lives was interdependent and constantly evolving. "People forget that the infrastructure for the Industrial Revolution took between 300 and 500 years to put in place," University of Washington engineering professor Mark Haselkorn said at the time. "And we're about 50 years into putting the infrastructure in place for the Information Age. So, it's not surprising we've got some problems." People prepared to "bug out" A mobile home; a year's supply of dehydrated food; a propane generator — those were just some of the precautionary purchases California computer programmer Scott Olmstead made in advance of 2000. (He also said he was shopping for a handgun.) If Y2K sparked a food shortage, or an electric grid failure, or even a crime spike, Olmstead told NPR he would be ready: "Whatever it is, if we want to 'bug out,' as the programmers say, we can do it. We've got a place to go." He added that he might take his money out of the bank and convert it into gold, silver and cash. While concerned citizens pondered a panic-proof wealth strategy, Brian Roby, vice president of First National Bank of Olathe, Kan., told NPR his institution would be ready to welcome customers on New Year's Day rather than take the holiday off. "We thought about it and we said, 'Hey, if we're ready, we're ready. Let's prove it. Let's be the first to be open,' " Roby said. "And we're just going to open up like it's any other normal Saturday." Some financial analysts remained skeptical Y2K would come and go with minimal disruption. But by November 1999 the Federal Reserve said it was confident the U.S. economy would weather the big switch. "Federal banking agencies have been visited and inspected. Every bank in the United States, which includes probably 9,000 to 10,000 institutions, over 99% received a satisfactory rating," Fed Board Governor Edward Kelley said at the time. Neighbors banded together Dozens of communities across the U.S. formed Y2K preparedness groups to stave off unnecessary panic. Kathy Garcia, an organizer with the Y2K Community Project in Boulder, Colo., said fears of a societal meltdown offered an opportunity to take stock. "How do we help each other out — not when a disaster hits, but beforehand?" Garcia told NPR's Margot Adler in 1999. Her project set up shop in a Boulder mall storefront, offering Y2K educational videos and exhibits on food storage. Local resident Richard Dash stopped by, urging people to consider their neighbors — not just themselves. "Do you want to be the only house with lights, and the only house with the smell of food coming from it? Do you want to really turn yourself into a bunker?" he said. Dash added he hoped nothing would come of Y2K besides a renewed feeling he could count on his community in an emergency, and it could count on him, too. Instead of conserving their extra food, he said, people could come together and share it. "We'll all have a picnic," he said. "We'll give extra food to FoodShare, and nobody's going to be hungry for a while. And that'll be just terrific." Squashing the Y2K bug In the end, the worst fears lay in anticipation. Besides a few minor setbacks like an internet slowdown and reports of malfunctioning clocks, the aggressive planning and recalibration paid off. Humanity passed into the year 2000 without pandemonium. "I'm pleasantly surprised," John Koskinen, chair of the President's Council on Year 2000 Conversion, told NPR's Weekend Edition on Jan. 1, 2000. "We expected that we would see more difficulties early on, particularly around the world." People like Jack Pentes of Charlotte, N.C., were left to figure out what to do with their emergency stockpiles. Pentes had filled 50 large soda bottles with tap water. "I used a half a dozen in the washing machine," he told NPR. "I can't bear to just pour it out and throw it away. There are too many people in the world that can't get any decent water." Food writer Michael Stern meanwhile offered a chili recipe for people with leftover canned food — namely, Spam. "One of its charms is that it doesn't decompose," Stern said. "No matter how long you cook it, it will always retain its identity as Spam." Others couldn't quite shake the instinct to plan ahead. Alfred Lubrano, an essayist for The Philadelphia Inquirer , wrote a letter included in a time capsule to be opened for "Y3K" — the year 3000. Lubrano's letter, which he read on NPR, ended with a question for whoever might find it in the next millennium. "We're human, same as you — flawed like you, decent like you," Lubrano wrote. "We have not yet figured out this world, this life. Have you?"
