Report: Two-season postseason ban for USC


It was leaked earlier today that the final report on the NCAA's investigation into the USC football and basketball programs would be released on Thursday.

Ahead of that semi-scheduled release -- which will not include a press conference on the part of the Trojans as previously thought -- comes word of potential sanctions facing the football program.

And unlike some -- including us -- had previously thought, it will not exactly be a slap on the wrist for the storied institution.

According to Bruce Feldman of ESPN.com, USC will receive a two-year post-season ban from the NCAA's probe into, among other things, the alleged illegal benefits received by Reggie Bush while he was a Heisman-winning running back at USC.

Additionally, per Feldman, the program will be hit with a loss of scholarships, the amount of which is not yet known.

There's no word on additional sanctions that could be slapped on the university; however, if Bush were to be declared retroactively ineligible, it could lead to USC being stripped of their 2004 BcS title, a previously-unknown stipulation implemented by the governing body of Div. 1-A football titles after the NCAA's probe into Bush commenced.

Needless to say, the fallout will continue throughout the day Thursday and, possibly, well into the future.

UPDATE 12:31 a.m. ET: According to a report in the Los Angeles Times, the USC football program will lose "more than 20... scholarships" as part of the sanctions handed down by the NCAA. There is no word on over how many years that scholarship loss would be spread out.

"Limited recruiting contacts, probation and forfeiture of victories are also among the penalties" that are in play for the football program, the Times reports.

How To Get Rid Of Google.com Wallpaper

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/06/1 ... 07375.html

Highlighting one of its new features, Google introduced a background image on Google.com--but it seems users aren't pleased with the new look.

"Remove Google background image" soared to the number 2 spot on Google trends, and the Huffington Post has received emails from readers eager to remove the background image that is appearing, by default, on Google's homepage.

One user wrote on the Google help forum, "I'm boycotting Google until this cr*p gets fixed. Who's the genius who came up with this idea to copy Bing WITHOUT giving the user an option to NOT have a background image? So fired." Another said, "It is frustrating to have that as a background... more frustrating is that it can't be removed/disabled..."

If you've added a custom Google background image and want to get rid of it, click "Remove background image," which should appear at the bottom left hand corner of Google.com.

If, however, you're just hoping to restore Google to its plain white background, you may have to wait until tomorrow--as with Google Doodles, the unusual Google background image may just be a temporary, one-day change. You could also try uploading a plain, white image to give Google back a more normal look (instructions on how to change the background image are here). We'll keep you posted!

Google has stopped using Bing-like photo backgrounds on its home page by default.

Marissa Mayer, the art-loving Google executive in charge of search products and user experience, confirmed via Twitter that the page is back to "normal" this morning.

[The Rambam]

Ah, now Bing can go back to being the only site in the history of the interents that uses photo backgrounds ever.

There's a lot of complex math equations that describe the interaction between fluids and masses of lipids wrapped in keratinocytes, melanocytes, Langerhans cells and Merkels cells in the presence of gravity. This video doesn't solve any of them.
