 see what 
was happening, and that when she got there, two boys came running 
toward her screaming that the authorities had ordered everyone out because 
the plant was going to explode. She drove only about a block 
when it did."It was like being in a tornado," Marak, 58, said 
during a phone interview. "Stuff was flying everywhere. It blew out my 
windshield. It was like the whole earth shook."Marak called her husband 
and asked him to come get her. When they got to their 
home about two miles south of town, her husband told her what 
he'd seen: a huge fireball that rose like "a mushroom cloud."The USGS 
reported that the blast registered a magnitude 2.1, which is comparable 
to a minor earthquake."They are still getting injured folks out and they 
are evacuating people from their homes," Swanton said early Thursday. He 
added later: "At some point this will turn into a recovery operation, 
but at this point, we are still in search and rescue."Gov. Rick 
Perry told reporters during a press conference Thursday in Austin that the 
explosion was a "truly nightmare scenario" that likely affected every family 
in the small community.This tragedy has most likely hit every family, touched 
practically everyone in that town, Perry said. I ask all Americans and 
Texans to join me and Anita in keeping them in our prayers.The

said, adding that authorities were not concerned about linger

the streets in New Orleans for a gun-control rally, Sen. Mary Landrieu 
might have flinched in her opposition to the presidents agenda. But he 
didnt. Had 1,000 Organizing for Action volunteers fanned out across Arkansas 
to drum up support for the package, Sen. Mark Pryor might have 
hesitated in bucking the president for fear of a primary challenge. But 
the doorsteps were empty.This is just the first test of the presidents 
new model and he and his team promise that as money flows 
in and lower-level organizers get up to speed, the presidents army will 
be ready to march next time.But there are two challenges here.First, how 
do you get people fired up about unsatisfying legislation?Obama initially 
promised a whole package of legislation aimed at preventing future mass 
killings like the December massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary. But comprehensive 
legislation quickly gave way to a resurrection of the old liberal effort 
to ban guns.When Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid declared that not viable, 
the president fell back to supporting universal background checks. He had 
by that point lost the urgency of the Sandy Hook killings since 
the measure was unrelated to what happened at the school, as well 
as other recent mass shootings.And when that measure looked headed to sure 
defeat because of worries about a federal firearms registry, Obama fell 
back again and called for passage of a more limited expansion of 
background che
