"Associated Press\nUpdate 7: Oil, Gas Prices Drop As Markets Calm
Down\n09.06.2005,06:41 AM\n\nOil and gasoline prices dropped Tuesday as calm
returned to markets after last weeks decision by industrialized nations to
release 60 million barrels of crude from strategic stockpiles as the U.S. oil
industry struggled to recover from Hurricane Katrina.\n\nStill, analysts said
there were several factors that could force prices to rise, even if
crude-supply worries decrease. And the long-term effects of Katrinas damage are
likely to exacerbate refineries problems in meeting demand for gasoline and
other petroleum products.\n\nLight, sweet crude oil for October delivery fell
79 cents by midday in Europe to $66.78 a barrel in electronic trading on the
New York Mercantile Exchange, which was closed Monday for the U.S. Labor Day
holiday. It closed Friday at $67.57 a barrel.\n\nUnleaded gas was down just
over 4 cents to $2.1410 a gallon, while heating oil was down nearly 3 cents to
$2.06
30 a gallon.\n\nBrent crude, which had already corrected downward in trading
Monday, was up 41 cents at $65.26.\n\nThe International Energy Agency announced
Friday that its 26 members would draw on 2 million barrels a day of oil
reserves over the next 30 days - for a total of 60 million barrels - to help
offset the loss of output and refining capacity in the U.S. caused by Hurricane
Katrina, and restore confidence in the market.\n\nJapan, a member of the
Paris-based IEA, said on Tuesday that starting Wednesday it would release to
the market about 200,000 barrels a day of crude oil and refined products from
its oil reserves held by private refiners, according to Shoichi Nakagawa,
minister of Economy, Trade and Industry.\n\nAll told, Japan will free a total
of 7.3 million barrels over the next 30 days in accordance with Japans share
set by the IEA.\n\n Two storm-shuttered facilities in the United States
restarted and flows of crude oil improved enough to allow refinerie
s in the Gulf Coast and Midwest to ramp up production. But four damaged Gulf
Coast refineries look likely to remain shut for weeks or even months, taking
with them more than 5 percent of U.S. capacity.\n\n Despite the
steps by industrialized nations to avert a fuel shortage, analysts warned that
long lines at U.S. gasoline pumps and record prices could augur higher oil
costs in the months ahead.\n\nWith nearly three months to go until the end of
the Atlantic hurricane season, which peaks between mid-September and
mid-October, more storms - both real and metaphorical - could be on the
horizon, Energy Intelligence said on its Web site.\n\nEnergy analyst Orrin
Middleton of Barclays Capital in London said the price relief was likely
temporary because of concerns about refinery capacities.\n\nThe huge rally we
got last week shows that its a product more than a crude problem, he said. I
dont think further OPEC crude is going to alleviate the refinery problem.\n\nHe
was
alluding to comments from OPEC oil ministers suggesting the organization was
considering raising its ceiling by up to 1 million barrels when it meets in
Vienna next week.\n\n Rafael Ramirez, Venezuelas oil minister, said
his country will follow through on its offer to send 1 million barrels of
gasoline to the United States as soon as possible to help victims of Hurricane
Katrina. Ramirez reiterated the pledge on Monday while at an oil meeting in
Jamaica.\n\nVenezuela and Caribbean leaders are close to finalizing deals to
supply the region with oil from the South American nation under preferential
terms.\n\nVenezuelan President Hugo Chavez was to meet Tuesday in Jamaica with
officials from 16 Caribbean countries, and was expected to sign accords
establishing the financing and other details of his Petrocaribe
initiative.\n\nChavez has said Venezuela, the worlds fifth largest oil
exporter, will donate nearly $20 million to help islands build loading docks
and fuel st
orage depots so they can easily receive fuel.\n\n_\n\nAssociated Press Writer

Then I pasted an article from Forbes.com

showed up (with all of the stuff outside the ========...)
Now my buffer containing my Java class looks like this:

AMD's colorful allegations, Intel has done a great job of gagging the computer
industry.
Before Advanced Micro Devices filed its lawsuit against Intel in June alleging
monumental amounts of bullying behavior, the perennially number two computer
chip maker tried hard to get a big name in its corner to verify its claims
publicly. AMD's indomitable leader, Hector Ruiz, worked the phones for days.
But nobody accepted his invitation to moon the emperor.
That left AMD to beat its own drum as loudly as possible. The lawsuit itself
was written for maximum effect, claiming that Intel intimidated Hewlett-Packard
into refusing 840,000 free AMD microprocessors; that Toshiba used Intel rebates
like "cocaine"; that Intel salesmen beat Gateway into "guacamole"; and that
Intel put a "gun to the head" of then-Compaq chief executive Michael Capellas.
The litany of alleged abuse brought no corroborators out of the wings, even
though the bullied big shots--HP's Carleton Fiorina, Compaq's Capellas and
Gateway's Theodore Waitt--have little to lose from snitching. They're all gone
from the industry. Intel won't comment on the complaint, filed in federal
district court in Delaware, except to say that it hopes to fight in court,
rather than in public.
AMD, which has litigated on and off with Intel for 20 years, says omert

"If you're a customer, why go out of your way to say something when you can be
forced to say something in court," said Sangeeth Peruri, an analyst with J&W
Seligman, which owns 10million shares of AMD and 2 million of Intel.
Court seems to be where this battle is headed, adding to what must be a big
legal bill at Intel. In March it agreed to a ruling by Japan's fair trade
commission to settle a dispute over anticompetitive sales practices. (Intel
denies any unlawful conduct.) The European Union and the Korean Fair Trade
Commission are now investigating Intel on similar charges. In July EUregulators
raided Intel offices in Milan, Munich, London and Madrid. Since AMD sued, 61
me-too class actions have been filed in state and federal courts.
If AMD gets Intel to court, odds would still be long that a PC executive would
stick his neck out on this one. With the exception of Dell, PC makers have 2%
operating margins; Intel's are 40%. One missed shipment of Pentiums can kill an
entire quarter for a wayward customer.
While AMDwould love to have some heavyweights visibly on its side--as Netscape
had Sun and Apple during the Microsoft antitrust trial--it may have to settle
for finding a pattern of documentary evidence while digging through the hard
drives of an estimated 800 people at 37 companies, plus whatever Intel coughs
up.
Says Diamond: "I'm hoping to find the guacamole e-mail."
