Now Singapore is turning to technology to alleviate its water shortage. The government plans to spend millions on an array of water-purifying technologies over the next decade, including several plants to take the salt out of seawater and filter sewage water, as well as structures to collect rainwater and direct it to reservoirs.

Carolina scored the first 10 points of the game, Cam Newtown completed his first nine passes and the defense held Minnesota to 35 yards in the first half, so it’s difficult to make the case that distraction was a major factor in the Panthers’ performance.

The besieged National Endowment for the Arts is once again under assault. Its sin, in the eyes of the Rev.
