L.A., Salt Lake City, Albuquerque and New Haven offer free parking for green cars, trying to meet the clean-air goals in the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement. Environmentalists like the city activism. “People are not willing to wait for a change in Washington to take action on what they see to be a major problem,” says the Sierra Club’s Jack Darin.

Of the four previous FCS quarterbacks selected in the first round of the NFL Draft, all of them — Doug Williams, Phil Simms, Steve McNair and Joe Flacco — went to the Super Bowl. All but McNair were named Super Bowl MVPs. Simms and McNair each were selected to at least one Pro Bowl. The Eagles are only two games into the Wentz era, but the rookie from North Dakota State has led his team to a pair of wins....

The USWNT came into the SheBelieves Cup searching for the next generation of stars to take the mantle from the old guard.

Irving, who had been playing through an injured right foot and left knee pain for most of the playoffs, sat out Friday’s 94-82 victory that gave the Cavs a 2-0 series lead.

The Uruguay international scored twice - both chipped finishes in the second half - as the Ligue 1 leaders restored their 12-point cushion over nearest Ligue 1 rivals Monaco in impressive fashion.

And even Monday’s 104-93 win in Game 1 against the Hawks wasn’t exactly easy. The Cavs were up by 18 in that one, but the Hawks managed to come back before the hosts put the nail in the coffin. That wasn’t the case Wednesday....

It is also working on the first major Cyberpunk 2077 DLC, Phantom Liberty, and beginning work on a proper sequel. There’s also Project Hadar, which is a brand-new, original IP for the studio.

CBD may also help manage unpleasant symptoms related to cancer and chemotherapy, such as pain, nausea, and vomiting....

Well, even them with a range of special powers of course. Switching between these abilities is the key to overtaking the facility’s defenses, and here’s how to do it....
