    A credible state official says California's about to run out of money. Santa Barbara's evacuees are braced for more winds. And the Dodgers face the next 50 games without the player who helped them earn the best record in baseball. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, millions of young Americans can't get to college; many graduates have tens of thousands in loans to pay off. We look at their plight and President Obama's plan to take over student loans and create a big, new entitlement program.
