...weather for the game was fine; the air was cool, but the sun still held a tinge of heat. The Crimson booters seemed more active and precise than their opponents, and consistently kept the ball in the opponent's end of the field...
...whole country is a delta formed by two of the mightiest rivers in the world, the Ganges and the Brahmaputra. Since the Brahmaputra is essentially liquid topsoil and the Ganges flowing shit, the resource base for producing the highest crop yields in the world are there. With their weather which allows a twelve month growing season the Bengalis should be able to produce enough crops to feed 300 million people. That is, not only feed themselves well, but also make up for India's entire food deficit, and still have food left over. They should, but they don't; this...

There is a slim chance that the fleet could still get through-about 20% according to weather experts. Barring that, the delay may well mean the first trickle of oil will not begin flowing south to the deep-water port of Valdez on schedule in the summer...
