Andrea Woodhouse is enjoying a break today, so let's fill in for her.

Here's a look at what's happening today:

A couple of South Bay bad guys won't be getting out of prison anytime soon. The California Supreme Court upheld the conviction of serial killer Adolph Laudenberg, who was found guilty of killing a woman in San Pedro in 1972. He's suspected in at least two other murders. And the federal 2nd District Court of Appeal upheld the 18-year prison sentence for Aaron Franklin, who committed robberies in the South Bay. Denise Nix reports on that one.

Manhattan Beach police are coming to the aid of their colleague Mark Vasquez again. Back in December, they all shaved their heads to show support when he underwent a bone marrow transplant. Now they are holding a bowling event to raise money to help him pay for new procedures because his cancer has unfortunately returned.

What is going to happen with the Dodgers now that 2008 is history. Jill Painter talked to Manny Ramirez about whether he'll stay. (C'mon Manny, stay, pleeaaaasee!)

Andrew Bynum's agent, meanwhile, is talking tough about a huge payday with the Lakers.He isn't real optimistic about a deal by Oct. 31, Laker beat writer Elliott Teaford reports. Five years, $80 million? Wish I was tall.
