...Hagan’s pass at the one, returning it to the 10. “The bottom line is, you can’t just have a guy as a runner,” Murphy said of O’Hagan, who has proven to be the more fleet-footed of the two quarterbacks. “For the simple reason that then you become predictable on offense...We probably should have just eaten the ball and gone on with the next play. Again, Holy Cross did a good job defending it. [O’Hagan will] be back...

...climate change. A better solution: tap into the enormous extra capacity of the grid during off-peak times, like between midnight and dawn. According to a study by the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, off-peak capacity could support the conversion of 73% of the current auto fleet - enough to cut demand for oil in half - without the addition of a single extra plant, provided the cars all charge late at night.

According to Alan Madian, a director at the research firm LECG, even assuming solid growth, we can't expect more than 68 million plug-in hybrids by 2036, which would account for less than 17% of the total estimated fleet at that time.

That's all the more reason for the government...

But thanks to North Sea fishing quotas, the town of 20,000 on Scotland's rugged east coast has very little maritime industry left to celebrate.
