Prices at the pump head below $3 in much of USThe price of a gallon of gasoline may soon start with a "2" across much the country.
Gasoline prices typically decline in autumn, and this year they are being pulled even lower by falling global oil prices. By the end of the year, up to 30 states could have an average gasoline price of less than $3 a gallon.
The average in Springfield, Missouri, is already below $3, according to Tom Kloza, chief oil analyst at the Oil Price Information Service and GasBuddy.com (http://gasbuddy.com/). Several other cities are on the brink.
"And there will be more, many more," Kloza said. Cities in high-priced states such as California and New York will not be among them, though, which will probably keep the national average above $3.

U.S. Economy Grows Most Since 2011The U.S. economy grew at a revised 4.6 percent annualized rate in the second quarter of 2014, the Commerce Department announced Friday. That is up from the previous estimate of 4.2 percent. The increase follows a 2.1 percent decline in the first quarter of the year, which economists are now viewing as an aberration. The spring growth rate is the highest since the final quarter of 2011. The increase was largely triggered by increased corporate spending on equipment and properties, as well as investments in nonresidential properties.

GOP House Candidate: ‘Atheist Agenda’ Caused Sandy Hook ShootingA Republican candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives once blamed the Sandy Hook school shooting on the “atheist agenda that has permeated every corner of our society.”
Zach Dasher, who is a nephew of Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson and recently received the Robinson family’s endorsement, is trying to unseat Rep. Vance McAllister, who became known as the “kissing comgressman” earlier this year. Despite first saying he won’t seek re-election, McAllister has since changed his mind about that.
Dasher made the comments just three days after the Sandy Hook shooting while hosting a podcast titled “Why Did This Happen” on a website he ran.
“He was made in the image of God,” Dasher said of the shooter. “But somewhere along the way he believed what the atheist says. He reduced humanity to nothing more than a collection of atoms, to be discarded like an old banana peel. I guarantee you, now this is my hypothesis, that even saw himself as nothing more than chemicals.”
