TCU opened their 2021 campaign with a solid drubbing of a vastly inferior opponent. There have been seasons where the FCS or low D1 opponent TCU pays to come in have given the Frogs some trouble, but that wasn’t the case on Saturday night.

TCU leveled Duquesne 45-3. Max Duggan and the rest of the starters played only the first half, showcasing a reinvented offense under new/old offensive coordinator Doug Meacham. The offense was varied, with plenty of motion, a seemingly full route tree, and a lot (early on) of passes from Duggan.

In one half of play, Max finished with 14 completions on 19 attempts, for 207 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He also added a rushing touchdown to his ledger, opening the scoring for the Frogs with an 8-yard designed keeper up the middle.

• The officials say they need more time to review data on extra doses, The New York Times said Friday.
• It’s another setback to the Biden administration’s plan, which reportedly prompted FDA resignations.

The Biden administration’s booster-shot plan is facing another setback.

Top health officials have told the White House they need more time and data before authorizing extra doses, The New York Times reported Friday.

The heads of the Food and Drug Administration and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention told the White House they may be able to recommend boosters for only some recipients of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine in the next few weeks, according to the report.

Steve Potash, the bearded and bespectacled president and C.E.O. of OverDrive, spent the second week of March, 2020, on a business trip to New York City. OverDrive distributes e-books and audiobooks—i.e., “digital content.” In New York, Potash met with two clients: the New York Public Library and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. By then, Potash had already heard what he described to me recently as “heart-wrenching stories” from colleagues in China, about neighborhoods that were shut down owing to the coronavirus. He had an inkling that his business might be in for big changes when, toward the end of the week, on March 13th, the N.Y.P.L. closed down and issued a statement: “The responsible thing to do—and the best way to serve our patrons right now—is to help minimize the spread of COVID-19.” The library added, “We will continue to offer access to e-books.”

The sudden shift to e-books had enormous

• An Arizona father and his two friends ambushed an elementary school principal on Thursday. 
• They were angry that the principal had asked children who were exposed to COVID-19 to wear a mask and isolate.
• One of the men, Rishi Rambaran, who brought zip-tie handcuffs to the scene, has been arrested. 

An angry Arizona father who barged into his elementary school kid’s principal’s office to protest a mask requirement has been arrested.

Rishi Rambaran, 40, stormed into Principal Diane Vargo’s office on Thursday with zip-tie handcuffs, according to a since-removed Instagram video. He and two friends accompanying him claimed the school broke the law when administrative officials told his kid to wear a mask and quarantine after potential exposure to COVID-19. 

Rambaran has since been arrested, Vargo told Insider in a statement.

“I can tell you the end result of that incident was we did make
