No arrests have been made as authorities continue to investigate child porn found on a computer in Ed Bayne’s home.
While state police have executed a search warrant at the home of Seven Fields Mayor Ed Bayne because of child pornography found on a computer, the next step in the criminal investigation could be weeks away.

Occupants of the home included on the warrant were Bayne, his wife, Macrina Bayne, and two sons. In an affidavit of probable cause filed to obtain the warrant, state police computer-crimes investigators said they located a computer address that shared and downloaded child pornography in October. Investigators said they obtained a court order and traced that computer to the Graywyck Drive home. Authorities …

Borough officials will check out a power point presentation detailing a joint force with Evans City—including costs.
Seven Fields will share with the public a proposed plan for a regional police department with Evans City. Borough officials are set to view a power point presentation on the joint force at Monday’s council meeting at 6 p.m. at the municipal building. Currently, Seven Fields contracts its police services with neighboring Cranberry Township. However, manager Tom Smith said the borough could no longer afford to pay a percentage of Cranberry's police budget, especially as the township continues to attract residents and businesses. Seven Fields is done growing, he said. Under the terms of the contract—which runs through 2016, with an earlier optional termination date at the end of 2014—Seven Fields, which is made up of about 2,887 residents, …

Owner Wendy Foster Elliott names the new studio after a mineral with special meaning to her.
With a youth spent near the ocean, saltwater always has played an important role in Wendy Foster Elliott’s life. “I feel like it just heals everything that ails you,” she said. Salt also has other special meanings to the Pine Township resident. A yogi once instructed her to put more “salt” into her teaching, meaning to ground it. The sweat that pours off the body during a hot yoga session also can be described a “salty,” she said. So when it came to time to dream up a name for her new yoga studio, Foster Elliott decided to go with the mineral. “We were going to name it Cranberry Power Yoga, but within a few seconds we had changed it,” she said. On Monday, Salt Power Yoga officially opened for businesses. Featuring a style of yoga called …

Severely burned in a fire at his Seven Fields townhouse last year, the running backs coach talks to ESPN's Josina Anderson about that night—and making his way back to the football field.
Just 48 hours before the Pittsburgh Steelers Wildcard playoffs loss to the Denver Broncos in January, a fire broke out in the kitchen of Kirby Wilson’s townhome in Seven Fields. A veteran running backs coach with the Steelers, Wilson suffered second- and third-degree burns on almost half of his body from the flames. He also had lung damage from a smoke-inhalation injury. Three months later, Wilson, who initially was put into a medically induced coma, was returning to Steelers headquarters to participate in the NFL draft. By the time training camp rolled around in July, he was jogging up and down the sidelines with his players. On Sunday, Wilson opened up about his recovery to ESPN’s Josina Anderson. Also speaking to Anderson in that …
