Rocket men

By Alyson Brodsy and Andrew Shaffer · Sunday, Oct. 15,2006 11:57 p.m.

Both IU and Iowa fans had reason to cry Saturday. Iowa fans shed tears with shock, leaving them unable to swallow the lump in their throats. IU fans, meanwhile, cried tears of victory, as a day of deluge impeded years of drought. Even IU coach Terry Hoeppner was holding his emotions back, only able to focus on the sky above as an ESPN sideline reporter interviewed him after the game.

U.S. coal plant boom poses big environmental, economic questions

By Alyson Brodsy · Sunday, Oct. 15,2006 10:44 p.m.

Should power companies be permitted to build new plants that pollute more but are reliable and less expensive? Or should regulators push utilities toward cleaner burning coal plants, even if it means they will cost more and are based on newer, yet still unproven, technology?

At least my T-shirt can say 'nuclear'

By Alyson Brodsy and Teri Rosenbaum · Sunday, Oct. 15,2006 10:44 p.m.
