...Defensive coordinator Scott] Larkee had us well-prepared this week,” Takamura said. “So I just saw the fullback flare out for a screen, and I just read it, got under it, got lucky. The quarterback threw the ball, and I just surrounded the ball and ended up in the endzone...
...would all be a surreal memory for Cibolo and the rest of America, if only it were over. Instead, Hayden's case is a flare in the darkness, a warning that as the nation begins its second big battle with a strange flu virus, we are up against a threat that we are not particularly skilled at overcoming, one that provokes an extreme range of emotions - from fear to indifference - none of which are all that helpful. The battle ahead is psychological as much as it is medical. And although we have heard a great deal about the importance...
...authorities know that street demonstrations could easily flare up again, considering that some half-dozen universities crowd Enqelab (Revolution) Boulevard alone, site of a millions-strong silent march in June.

Producers who cannot sell or store their gas will have limited options: cap their wells, which could be bad for them in the long term; give gas away for free, which has happened before when producers did not want to halt production; or flare it - burn it off into the atmosphere. With production decreasing because of low price incentives and a great deal of gas likely being lost from capping wells and flaring gas, the oversupply will not last, and the price will be pushed higher by supply and demand fundamentals. The natural gas futures traded on the New York...
