WOMAN WHO FELL TO DEATH A LAW PROFESSOR

Earlier today, we read a story about a woman, who was then not identified,  who fell or jumped from a building in Newport Beach and had died.

Then, later, in the OC REGISTER, we read that an apparently well liked law professor who taught in Fullerton had died "suddenly," but there was no cause of death given.

We suspected the woman in both stories was one and the same, but we didn't want to jump the gun. Now, the Daily Pilot has given us the name of the woman who fell or jumped, and she was the law professor, but the Pilot doesn't make that connection.

UPDATE:  KLITSCHKO BY UNANIMOUS DECISION OVER CHISORA

Seemed to be something wrong with Klitschko's left hand and he basically fought the whole fight just with his right.

Klitschko's usual style is to keep his left jab moving all the time.  In this fight, however, the left was pretty much at his side the whole time.

Maybe something in the news later about the left.  We'll let you know if we see or hear anything.
