Not letting fatigue set in, No. 6 Virginia visits old rival Maryland

A busy start hasn't slowed down No. 6 Virginia as it travels to Maryland for its first road test of the season on Friday night in College Park, Md. The contest between former conference rivals will be the fifth for the Cavaliers (4-0) and just the third for the Terrapins (1-1). Virginia has played twice since Maryland's most recent game. The Cavaliers boosted their season scoring average to 93.0 points per game with a breezy 95-61 home victory against Bucknell on Tuesday -- scoring the first 11 points, building a 22-point advantage at halftime and leading by as many as 37. Virginia finished with 12 3-pointers and 12 steals, reaching double figures in both categories for the fourth time in as many games. "We challenged our guys to be ready, and we talked a lot about how (when) people turn the TV on, or they choose to come to the game to watch us, are they going to get the same Virginia?" second-year coach Ryan Odom said after the team's fourth win in eight days. "Are they going to get Virginia in the way that we play? And I think for the most part we did (against Bucknell). That's a

Maryland "is facing an energy crisis," utility Pepco says

"Maryland is facing an energy crisis," electric utility Pepco warned in a message to customers Thursday. "When demand for electricity is high and supply is limited, it puts pressure on the system and can increase costs," the message said, advising that customers "may see changes in your energy bill" as the region enters the winter months. The utility again has attempted to explain that many of the surging costs are not its responsibility, such as the taxes and fees imposed by Montgomery County and Maryland state governments. It specifically mentioned the EmPOWER Maryland fee that the Maryland legislature recently hiked again. Politicians hope that you will think Pepco is charging you these fees, which is part of the impetus for the utility to inform customers to the contrary.
