Q: Statistics on freight are specified in terms of the weight of freight lifted, and the net tonne kilometre, being freight weight multiplied by distance carried. 116.6 million tonnes of freight was lifted in the 2013&ndash;4 period, against 138 million tonnes in 1986&ndash;7, a decrease of 16%. However, a record 22.7 billion net tonne kilometres (14 billion net ton miles) of freight movement were recorded in 2013-4, against 16.6 billion (10.1 billion) in 1986&ndash;7, an increase of 38%. Coal makes up 36% of the total net tonne kilometre, though its share is declining. Rail freight has increased its market share since privatisation (by net tonne kilometres) from 7.4% in 1998 to 11.1% in 2013. Recent growth is partly due to more international services including the Channel Tunnel and Port of Felixstowe, which is containerised. Nevertheless, network bottlenecks and insufficient investment in catering for 9 6" high shipping containers restrict growth.
How many fewer millions of tonnes of freight was lifted in 2013-14 than in 1986-87?

A: 21.4


Q: The Raiders stayed home for a game against the Cardinals.  The Cardinals scored first in the first quarter when Carson Palmer found Stepfan Taylor on a 2-yard touchdown pass for a 7-0 lead and the only score of the quarter.  They made it 14-0 in the 2nd quarter when Palmer found Michael Floyd on a 33-yard touchdown pass.  The Raiders got on the board when Darren McFadden ran for a 1-yard touchdown for a 14-7 lead followed up by Sebastian Janikowski kicking a 29-yard field goal for a 14-10 game at halftime.  In the 3rd quarter, the Raiders came within 1 as Janikowski managed to kick a 53-yard field goal for a 14-13 game.  The Cards however took control of the game as Taylor ran for a 4-yard touchdown for a 21-13 lead.  Finally in the 4th quarter the Cards wrapped up the scoring when Chandler Catanzaro nailed a 41-yard field goal for the eventual final score of 24-13. With the loss, the Raiders dropped to 0-6 and with the Jaguars' win over the Browns, they became the league's only winless team.

Q: Trying to rebound from their home loss to the Colts, the Patriots stayed at home for a rainy AFC East rematch with the Jets.  After a scoreless first quarter, the Patriots struck first with a Gostkowski 31-yard field goal.  However, the Jets would fire back with running back Kevan Barlow getting a touchdown on a two-yard run.  Gostkowski would get one more field goal for New England, in the form of a 21-yarder.  In the third quarter, New York kicker Mike Nugent kicked a 34-yard field goal for the only score of the period.  In the fourth quarter, the Jets continued their pursuit, as Pennington completed a 22-yard touchdown pass to Cotchery.  The Patriots tried to fight back, as Brady completed a 15-yard touchdown pass to Caldwell, following it up with a successful two-point conversion pass to Caldwell.  However, New York's defense managed to bottle up any chance of a New England comeback.   With the loss, the Patriots would lead the Jets by one game in the AFC East at 6-3. Also with the loss, the Patriots' 57-game streak without consecutive losses, which dated back to the 2002 season, was snapped. The San Francisco 49ers still hold the record of 60-straight games without consecutive losses (1995 - 1999). For Tom Brady, this would be his last regular-season loss at home until Week 9 of the 2011 season. This turned out to be the last time Brady lost at home to another AFC team during the regular season until Week 17 of the 2014 season. After the game was played on a completely sodden, torn-up natural grass field, the Patriots used the two-week interval before the next home game to install a new "FieldTurf" surface at Gillette Stadium.
Who threw the longest touchdown pass?

A: Pennington


Q: The Colts began their season at Reliant Stadium in an AFC South duel against the Houston Texans.  Indianapolis started the season going 3-and-out on their first offensive possession of the new year.  The Texans got good field position with a big punt return from Jacoby Jones to set up a 30-yard field goal to give them a 3-0 lead. The offense continued to struggle throughout the first half, getting two first downs on the next drive, however, eventually having to punt.  The Texans continued to show energy on both offense and defense by scoring two more time, a field goal and a touchdown, giving the Texans a 13-0 lead halfway through the second quarter.  The Colts eventually got the offense going late in the second quarter by scoring on a touchdown reception by Reggie Wayne, which broke the lead down to one possession. Adam Vinatieri made a 20-yard field goal at the end of the first half and the Colts went into the half trailing 13-10. The momentum was seemingly shifting to Indianapolis, until Houston took almost eight minutes off the third quarter clock on a 15-play drive, 13 rushes, that resulted in one of Arian Foster's rushing touchdowns on the day to give Houston a 20-10 lead. Peyton Manning and the offense struggled throughout the third quarter with missed opportunities and continued to shoot themselves in the foot with penalties.  With the start of the fourth quarter Houston scored another touchdown and broke the game open.  The Colts would eventually score two touchdowns late in the game, only when there was no chance of a comeback. With the final score 34-24, the Colts were 0-1 to start a season for the first time since 2008, when they lost to the Chicago Bears.
