The U.S. Energy Information Administration reported that wholesale gas prices are dropping nationwide, with percentage drops per gallon of 6.9 and 10.8 percent.Demand data was partially influenced by severe flooding and rain on the East Coast that deterred many drivers, according to Reuters.Despite the price drop, drivers in nearly every Southern California county are still paying more than their NorCal counterparts, data shows.

NANTES, France (AP) — A tournament-ending broken arm to Taulupe Faletau and Gareth Anscombe’s groin injury marred a box-ticking Wales win against Georgia by 43-19 at the Rugby World Cup on Saturday.Faletau was the only forward to have started every Wales game in France at his third World Cup and came off clutching his arm. The No. 8’s absence is a major setback to Wales’ chances in the quarterfinals next week.“We felt he was starting to come back to his best,” Wales coach Warren Gatland said. “He was excellent last week (against Australia) in terms of his footwork and carrying and stuff, taking kickoffs and giving us some go-forward as well. It’s a big loss for us.”“We’ll have to make a decision in terms of how we look at the balance of the back row going forward and in particular for next week.”Anscombe was due to start at flyhalf against Georgia but tweaked his groin while kicking in the warmup and withdrew.
