Authorities in Roseburg, Ore. have not speculated on why 26-year-old Chris Harper-Mercer killed nine at Umpqua Community College before dying in a shootout with police officers. At a news conference Thursday evening, an agitated Douglas County Sheriff John Hanlin offered little detail about the gunman. Public records don’t indicate that Harper-Mercer had a previous criminal history and most of what is known about him at this point is through those records, family and his online presence.

Bed Bath and Beyond is famous for dispensing coupons for 20% off almost any item. But while that strategy was successful for getting shoppers in stores for a time, it has now backfired, reports Sarah Halzack at The Washington Post.

For most people, going blind is their worst nightmare, but for this North Carolina woman it was a dream come true. Jewel Shuping, 30, was so desperate to be blind that she poured draining cleaner in her baby blues to wipe out her eyesight — and she couldn’t be happier. She suffers from an illness called body integrity identity disorder (BIID) — a disease that causes able-bodied people to strongly desire a disability. “I really feel this is the way I was supposed to be born, that I should have been blind from birth,” Shuping told Barcroft Media. The afflicted woman knew from a young age she wanted to be blind, and would attempt to harm her eyesight by staring at the sun while “blind-simming,”
The remains of an 18-year-old Colorado man reported missing seven years ago were found in the chimney of an abandoned cabin less than one mile from his home, officials said Wednesday. The remains were found last month as contractors tore down the cabin in Woodland Park that had been abandoned for more than a decade. Authorities had to use dental records to identify the remains as those of Joshua Vernon Maddux, who was reported missing in May 2008 but not as a runaway. Teller County Coroner Al Born speculated that Maddux was trying to shimmy down the chimney when he got stuck. His death was ruled accidental and there were no signs of trauma, Born said. It’s unclear how long his remains were in
