The Chargers pass defense is terrible, yet they have played the average 28th-rated offenses, including the Rams, Raiders, Chiefs, Jets, Jaguars, Bills, Seahawks and Cardinals. From a pass-efficiency perspective, those teams rank: 32, 31, 28, 26, 24, 17, 16 and 13. The best teams the Chargers have faced are the Broncos (2), Ravens (6) and Dolphins (11). Those games saw scores of 21-35, 34-33 and 0-37. In other words, good offenses have put up 33+ on San Diego, and two of the three games went OVER the total with ease....

VVS Laxman was indeed a ‘Very Very Special’ cricketer. The legendary batsman played 134 Tests for India and scored 8,781 runs, at an average of 45.50, including 17 hundreds and 56 fifties. But the true value of his contribution goes beyond mere numbers. Laxman played a majority of his career at No. 6, and had to rally around with the tail. In a career spanning 16 years, Laxman dissected bowling attacks across the world with the regal splendor of an artist....

Are jobs the only good reason to turn on the new Sellafield plant? In an industry rife with sensitive issues, the plant raises a particularly tricky one: what can be done with plutonium, a byproduct of nuclear reactors and dismantled nuclear weapons?

Instead Jesus landed in Iraq and died last March after stepping on a stray American cluster bomb, according to his father....
