Stories that caught our eye in the last week:

1. Good news for Charlotte, considering our current air quality: The Environmental Protection Agency says it wants to get tough on coal-fired power plants, such as those in the Carolinas.

2. Local coach Michael Lawson is going global. The N.C. Central track and field coach will lead the U.S. team at an international competition in 2011.

3. Some folks are taking the Lynx Blue Line for a ride. Despite riders who avoid paying, the Charlotte Area Transit System says it won't install equipment to ensure payment.

4. Fort Mill teen Trevor Schueren will have a lot to write about on his "What I did on my summer vacation" essay. The lucky winner of a FIFA contest is taking his mom to a World Cup game in South Africa.

5. Looks like an intended "cash cow" for the town of Cornelius has gone to the dogs. A current pet licensing fee may be abolished after strong push back from residents.
