President Obama defeated Republican Mitt Romney in the 2012 presidential election, according to projections.
President Barack Obama and Vice-President Joe Biden were re-elected Tuesday night, defeating Republican challenger Mitt Romney and his vice-presidential running mate Rep. Paul Ryan, according to network projections. NBC News called the presidential election for Obama around 11:15 EST. The president sent a message on Twitter at 10:14 saying simply, "This happened because of you. Thank you." The Obama campaign won the most expensive presidential race ever, with both parties raising about $2.6 billion. The race was filled with negative campaigning on both sides, from President Obama attacking Romney's business experience with Bain Capital to Romney lambasting Obama's handling of the economy.

LANSING (AP) — A human error left 85,000 food assistance recipients in Michigan without money they were expecting on their state-issued debit cards Thursday, forcing officials to scramble to fix the problem after hearing from groceries and angry customers.
About one-tenth of the state's 1.8 million food stamp recipients, those with account numbers ending in "0," were affected by the problem. State employees and vendors planned to work overnight into Friday to load money onto the Bridge Cards.
Watch a report on the error on today's News at Noon.
The state Department of Technology, Management and Budget "understands the hardship that this situation has caused Michigan families and the inconvenience to the businesses that serve them," spokesman Kurt Weiss said in a statement. "We are working around the clock to correct the problem as quickly as possible and we will determine why it occurred."
A family receiving food assistance gets about $540 a month on average.
Weiss told The Associated Press late Thursday that the money should have been on the debit cards as of 8 a.m. Thursday.
"We found out about it from grocers. They said, 'We're turning people away because their card was not loaded,"' he said. "They had angry customers."
Recipients typically know the day each month that money is added to their card and many time their first trip to the store accordingly, Weiss said. A phone line for Bridge Card users "exploded," he said, with calls Thursday quadrupling from 3,000 in a normal day to more than 13,000.
Though 85,000 recipients have been directly affected by the error, the total impacted is higher because many also buy food for family members. Continued...
Recipients of food assistance can call 888-678-8914 for updates. Bridge Cards are given to both welfare and food stamp recipients in Michigan.

Zillow shares dropped sharply after the real estate website delivered a weaker-than-expected revenue outlook for the rest of the year.
AOL shares soared more than 20% after the company delivered strong earnings and revenue results, as advertising sales climbed 7% during the quarter.
Office Depot swung to a loss in the third quarter, as the company's sales fell 5%. But excluding certain charges, the office supply chain beat earnings expectations, sending shares 19% higher.
Shares of Express Scripts sank after the healthcare management firm said analysts' estimates for its 2013 earnings were "overly aggressive."
DirecTV shares edged lower after the company lost more subscribers than expected during the third quarter, and missed earnings estimates. The satellite TV provider was hurt earlier this year by its dispute with Viacom, which blacked out channels including Comedy Central, MTV and Nickelodeon for 20 million DirecTV customers.
Shares of News Corp. moved up in after-hours trading following the media company's release of its first quarter results after the bell. News Corp's results beat analysts' forecasts on profits but slightly missed revenues projections.

Forecasters expected the storm to bring up to a foot of snow to parts of eastern Kansas, Missouri and Illinois a day after plastering southern Kansas, Oklahoma and Texas. Winter storm watches and warnings or weather advisories stretched from Oklahoma to Michigan.
About 6 inches of snow fell in Mediapolis in southeastern Iowa, CNN iReporter Rose Schmidgall said.
The high school student spent much of the day shoveling snow.
"The digging was difficult and took a little while. The snow was packed really good and was heavy to scoop," she said, adding her family still had power as of Tuesday afternoon.
While the back-to-back snowstorms were frustrating for some, others put a positive spin on the experience. Jim Service of Overland Park, Kansas, spaced out the work of clearing last week's snowfall over four days. He finished Sunday, just in time for this storm.
After a warm-up session clearing Tuesday's snow -- much wetter and heavier than last week's -- he retreated inside with a Clive Cussler novel and planned to enjoy the day off. Like many others, Service's company called off work Tuesday at the behest of state officials who warned that the storm was too dangerous for people to be on the roads.
"It's great for me," he said.
The Kansas National Guard warned that continued snowfall and gusty winds would make travel tricky through Wednesday.
In Woodward, emergency vehicles were still having trouble getting around Tuesday, a day after the storm dropped more than 15 inches of snow.
Crews dispatched to a house fire Monday had trouble reaching the home because of 4-foot snowdrifts. The snowplow sent to free the firefighters also got stuck. Even Tuesday, emergency vehicles still were having a tough time getting around.

Saving calories at the bar may not be a good thing.
Researchers gave college students vodka drinks with regular soda and with diet soda, and the diet soda group got more intoxicated, faster - about 20% more intoxicated than those who mixed regular soda with liquor, according to research published Tuesday in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research. Sugar in your mixed drink actually slows down the effects of alcohol, researchers say.
The study
Though it was a very small study, only eight women and eight men, the findings closely match previous research linking diet drinks and increased alcohol levels in the body.
Scientists at Northern Kentucky University asked students who were social drinkers to come to their lab on separate days to test the effects of alcohol. During one visit, the students drank vodka with diet soda and at another session they mixed the vodka with a sugar-sweetened soft drink. Each beverage had the potency of about four mixed drinks, a dose that has been shown to raise blood alcohol levels to about the legal driving limit. At each visit, the students downed their drink in about 10 minutes.
The results
Using breath tests to measure alcohol levels, researchers found that students who drank vodka and regular soda registered just under the legal limit. But drinking the vodka-diet soda mixture tipped students over the limit.
"What you choose to mix your alcohol with could possibly be the difference between breaking or not breaking the law," says study author Cecile Marczinski, assistant professor in the Department of Psychological Science at Northern Kentucky University in Highland Heights, Kentucky.
The students also completed computer tasks testing their reaction times, mimicking what they might face while driving. Those drinking the diet soda were slower to react.
But the students said they felt the same no matter what they drank, even though tests showed the diet drinkers were about one-fifth more intoxicated. To put that in perspective, you'd have to add almost a whole other shot of vodka to the sugar-sweetened drink to equal the potency of the diet drink mixture.

Stephen A. Smith has some advice for RGIII's fiancee... oh no...
Screamin' Stephen A. Smith filled in for one of the Mikes on Mike & Mike today as part of six consecutive hours on ESPN2 this morning. Whoever thought of that idea in Bristol needs to have a severe reality check. At one point, the topic shifted to random fans buying gifts for RGIII and his fiancee off their wedding registry. Some people have not taken kindly to this, and Mike Greenberg basically told him to ignore the negativity, because it is inevitable no matter what the topic.
When you're a high profile athlete, no matter what you do, you will have people writing and saying negative things. This makes sense, and Greenberg was right to tell RGIII to just ignore it. It should be a non-story.
Then, Smith swoops in and makes a bunch of nonsensical statements, including:
no comments

Should lottery winners' names be kept secret?
PHOENIX (AP) — When two winning tickets for a record $588 million Powerball jackpot were claimed from the Nov. 28 drawing, the world focused on the winners.
A Missouri couple appeared at a press conference and held up the traditional giant-sized check. The Arizona winner, however, skipped the press conference where lottery officials announced last month that someone had claimed the second half of the prize.
The differing approach to releasing information on the winners reflects a broader debate that is playing out in state Legislatures and lottery offices nationwide: Should the winners' names be secret?
Lawmakers in Michigan and New Jersey think so, proposing bills to allow anonymity because winners are prone to falling victim to scams, shady businesses, greedy distant family members and violent criminals looking to shake them down.
Lotteries object, arguing that publicizing the winners' names drives sales and that having their names released ensures that people know there isn't something fishy afoot, like a game rigged so a lottery insider wins.
When players see that an actual person won, "it has a much greater impact than when they might read that the lottery paid a big prize to an anonymous player," said Andi Brancato, director of public relations for the Michigan state lottery.
Most states require the names of lottery winners be disclosed, albeit in different ways. Some states require the winner to appear at a press conference, like Missouri winners Mark and Cindy Hill did on Nov. 30.
Arizona and other states allow winners not to appear in public, but their names can be obtained through public records laws. The Arizona winner, Matthew Good, was not identified at the news conference a week after the Hills' came forward, and has not given interviews or appeared in public.
When news media including The Associated Press learned of his name through records requests, TV crews and reporters flocked to Good's neighborhood to get reaction from the winner of a lottery that captivated the nation.
Jeff Hatch-Miller, executive director of the Arizona Lottery, said he understands winners' desire for privacy, but he argues they are essentially entering into a large contract with the government that is public. Others argue that appearing at a news conference helps defuse media interest because the winner is available to answer questions that satisfy the media's interest in telling their stories. Continued...
In Michigan, Republican state Sen. Tory Rocca pushed a lottery bill that allows winners to remain anonymous. It didn't pass, but in arguing for it, he cited cases where lottery winners were shot and killed because of their newfound wealth.
A Florida woman was convicted last month of first-degree murder after she befriended a man who won a $30 million jackpot in 2006. Prosecutors said she took control of his assets, killed him, buried him in her yard and poured a concrete slab above the grave.
An effort in New Jersey by Democratic Sen. Jim Whelan took a middle ground between public release and privacy, calling for a one-year delay in releasing winners' names. It also didn't make it out of the Legislature last year, but he said he'll keep pressing to get it passed.
Whelan said a one-year delay would give winners a chance to adjust while still keeping the public disclosure lotteries say they need. However, Whelan said he doesn't really buy the agencies' arguments for public disclosure.
"I'm not sure how many people are spurred to buy a lottery ticket because they see a picture of someone in the paper holding up a big check - and I don't think people don't buy a ticket because they think the whole thing's fixed," Whelan said.
Of 44 states participating in Powerball and 33 in Mega-Millions, only Delaware, Kansas, Maryland, North Dakota and Ohio allow blanket anonymity, said Chuck Strutt, executive director of the Multi-State Lottery Association, which oversees the games.
"Obviously, it is a law that is designed to ensure an open and transparent process, so that the public can be ensured that insiders are not winners," Strutt said. "But in today's world, most of us can understand the wish to remain anonymous."
The most famous modern lottery fraud case happened in 1980 when Pennsylvania Lottery district manager Edward Plevel and TV announcer Nick Perry were convicted of fixing the result of the Daily Number drawing.
Authorities found that some of the ping pong balls used in the game were injected with paint to make them too heavy to float up the winning slots. The result paid $3.8 million, a record at the time, and eight people involved in the fix won a total of about $1.2 million.
Former Missouri child services worker Sandra Hayes shared a $224 million Powerball jackpot with a dozen co-workers in 2006 and said she understands the push for anonymity. Continued...
Hayes said she received many requests for money or to make investments, both at work (she kept her job another month) and at home, where she'd find people waiting on her porch. Her lump sum payout after taxes was more than $6 million.
Even if people are allowed to remain anonymous, it's often inevitable that their identities will become known.
Steve Thornton, a lawyer in Bowling Green, Ky., has helped two big lottery winners shield their names through corporations despite rules in his state that require disclosure of winners. Even though they were kept out of the public eye, one winner couldn't stay hidden.
"It was not many months later that lots of people knew who won, even though it was not released, because of their gifts and their spending." Thornton said.

A flat gray concrete pool deck is no longer your only option, though it is still a solid choice. There are plenty of other materials with a range of benefits and drawbacks -- and a wide range of prices.
When choosing a material, consider the harsh impacts of water, chlorine, chemicals, salt and sun on any deck surface, not to mention spilled margaritas, popsicles and ketchup. Stick to light colors and textured surfaces to keep those bare feet from burning or slipping. Also, the pool deck should be large and comfortable enough for lounging. You will spend at least as much time next to the pool as you will in the pool.
Prices below are an estimate. Actual costs may vary widely, and installation costs also vary depending on the deck size, soils, slope, design and other factors.
Poured concrete
Cost: Starts at $4 to $6 per square foot, including labor, for basic solid concrete decks. Colors, coatings and finishes cost extra.
Poured concrete is perhaps the most popular pool deck material, particularly in warm areas. It is less common in colder climates, where frozen concrete decks are liable to crack. The materials and labor for basic concrete work are fairly cheap. Concrete also can be customized in a nearly infinite range of colors and finishes. It can be painted or stained, and finished with a rough broom finish or an exposed aggregate for a more interesting texture and better slip resistance.
Alternately, stamped concrete can mimic natural stone or brick, but be sure to check references for any stamped concrete work. The popularity of stamped concrete has most every contractor believing they can stamp concrete, but it takes some practice to look right.
Damaged concrete decks can be resurfaced relatively cheaply without needing to replace them, but the entire deck must be redone.
Concrete or brick pavers

So I keep ranting about Firefox here, and for good reason: the Mozilla team is going above and beyond the call of duty when it comes to driving users to other browsers.
However, try as I might, I simply encounter too many dealbreakers in Chromium.
When I think about it, the last version of Firefox that didn't drive me crazy with crashing, incompatible add-ons, and stupid UI changes and features removed, it would have to be Firefox 3.6.
I keep forgetting how to do this, so I'm posting this here as much for my own reference as for anyone else's. This is how to downgrade newer versions of Firefox to 3.6 and keep it that way, at least until things settle down a little, or until another browser comes along that can actually be a viable replacement for it — unlike newer versions of Firefox, sadly. This works with Mint 11, which means it will also work with Ubuntu 11.04.
Step 1: Edit /etc/apt/sources.list
This is a simple matter of editing a few files, ultimately. The first of which is sources.list. So, from a terminal, type this:
sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
Paste the following into there:
deb http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu/ maverick main
deb http://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu/ maverick-updates main
Then hit ctrl+o to save it and ctrl+x to exit the file.
Step 2: Pin firefox and firefox-branding packages
Still from the terminal, type:
sudo nano /etc/apt/preferences.d/firefox
Paste the following into the file:
Package: firefox
Pin: release n=natty
Pin-Priority: -10
Package: firefox
Pin: release n=maverick
Pin-Priority: 900
Then hit ctrl+o to save it and ctrl+x to exit the file.
Then type:
sudo nano /etc/apt/preferences.d/firefox-branding
And paste the following into there:
Package: firefox-branding
Pin: release n=natty
Pin-Priority: -10
Package: firefox-branding
Pin: release n=maverick
Pin-Priority: 900
Then hit ctrl+o to save it and ctrl+x to exit the file.
Step 3: Update apt-get and install Firefox 3.6
Type this into your terminal window:
sudo apt-get update
This will refresh your packages list in apt.
Now do this so that you blow away the existing mess that is the current version of Firefox:
sudo apt-get remove firefox
And, finally, install Firefox 3.6:
sudo apt-get install firefox
And you're done!
In my experience, this still gets updates as Mozilla pushes them out to 3.6.* installations (through the source you added in step 1), so as long as they're still supporting Firefox 3.6, this will still be a viable option.
And I discovered that since I don't need as many add-ons in Firefox 3.6 (I kept having to find more and more for later versions to deal with stupid things they kept breaking after Firefox 4), it actually starts up and seems to load webpages faster than the supposedly "new and improved" releases. So this is really more of an upgrade than a "downgrade", but I didn't want to confuse anyone.
Your mileage may vary, of course.

WordPress/Responsive Navigation Losing Color when on Child Page
I'm still working on my mobile navigation, and I ran across a weird problem. When you visit a parent page, the children links then show - just as I wanted. But when you visit a child page, the children navigation elements lose their color.
When on child page:
How I want it to display/how it displays when on a parent page:
Link (pull to 480px or below)
Any ideas?
Thanks guys!
which browser? works for me in FF 14.0.1 OS X@JeremyEnglert
In IE 9 Version 9.0.5, there's a problem with your dropdowns.
Due to slight gap between parent and dropdowns the dropdown disapears while trying to move mouse from parent to dropdown.
On all other browsers, FF,Opera, Chrome and Safari it's ok.@wolfcry911 - I just tried it in FF, Safari and Chrome - they all seem to be having the same issue. Were you looking at he regular navigation or the mobile one? Thanks!@jurotek - I'll take a look at that. Someone else mentioned something very similar.

CSS Matter is Web Design Gallery Inspiration for Web Designers & Developers.@WolfCry911 - visit a child page, "Back Story" or "Our Team" for example. You'll see that the menu then loses it's color.

6 years since Facebook Platform launch, company looks to provide new app services
Today marks the six-year anniversary of the Facebook Platform, something that has been defining for Facebook as a company and already influenced a number of industries.
Now, Facebook is making its next big moves for the platform by introducing app services — new tools for developers that make it easier to build applications that span different devices and put users at the forefront. This is seen most clearly with the acquisition of Parse, a mobile backend as a service company, which will continue as a separate brand with a freemium services model for the time being. Facebook also recently hired the team behind Spaceport, a cross-platform development framework, and stealth software startup Osmeta, which was reportedly working on something related to enabling simpler development across devices.
"We've been thinking about how we can provide tools to developers to enable a more cross-platform world," Facebook Director of Developer Products Doug Purdy said at a media "whiteboard" session Thursday. "We're trying to create a platform that developers can build something that spans over devices and makes people the center. Regardless of the device that you or your friends are on, everyone can have a rich experience."

Guest Post: Advertisers Likely to Flock to Facebook's New Self-Serve Targeting Feature
This is a guest post by Resolution Media Director of Client Strategy and Development George Manas.
Marketers seeking better ways to reduce waste, influence buying behavior and strengthen brand equity are likely to embrace Facebook Partner Categories. Launched on April 10, this new self-service capability puts a rich array of data-driven targeting segments at advertisers' fingertips, helping increase the precision, relevance and effectiveness of their Facebook campaigns.
Partner Categories uniquely combines data describing both the online and offline purchasing behavior of consumers in more than 500 segments and relies on data from third-party firms Datalogix, Acxiom and Epsilon. Marketers of all sizes can benefit from Partner Categories' easy access and no-minimum-spend requirement.
The new service is the latest in a series of targeting enhancements introduced by Facebook to improve advertisers' results. Partner Categories likely will attract as many or more advertisers as has Facebook's recently launched Custom Audiences program, which provides the ability to import customer data to improve targeting.
Partner Categories integrates with other targeting options within Power Editor (Facebook's advanced self-serve platform) and is available through select paid media APIs. U.S.-based advertisers can begin using Partner Categories immediately, while advertisers based in other countries must be white-listed to use the service and may only target U.S. consumers at this time.
Although we see almost daily examples of new technology empowering the consumer's evolution, it's important to also acknowledge the vital impact of new advertiser services like Partner Categories, which keep marketers ahead of the curve.
Advertisers can now target Facebook ads by recency of activity
Facebook has created a new way for businesses and developers to target ads to users who have taken an action on Facebook or in an app within a more specific time range.
Using the "action spec" targeting capability, which allows advertisers to reach users by the actions they take in Open Graph apps and on Facebook directly, an advertiser could designate a time range shorter than 14 days. The default is still 14 days, but previously there was no option to set a shorter window.
This change gives advertisers more accuracy in reaching the most relevant users for a particular message. For instance, a local business might want to reach users who checked into their store within the past week. A developer might want to target users who installed their app in the past three days. A page owner might want to retarget users who viewed one of their page tabs the day before.
Action spec targeting is still a beta feature limited to advertisers working with Preferred Marketing Developers with the Ads API, so it isn't widely known or understood. However, the feature offers developers unique opportunities to reach users who have taken specific in-app actions, including in their competitor's apps. It also gives brands ways to segment and target their fans by the actions they take on their page or a competitor's page.
Action spec targeting is also interesting in that advertisers can define a "negative action spec," meaning users who have not taken a particular action. For example, a developer could reach users who have played a game, but not made an in-app purchase in the last 10 days. Advertisers can also reach friends of users who have taken a particular action.
More technical information about action spec targeting, including targeting by app activity in a time range is available here. A list of Facebook actions that advertisers can target against using action specs is available here. Businesses that are interested in this type of targeting should seek out an ads-qualified PMD.
Facebook brings post insights back to Pages Manager app after temporary removal
A recent update to Pages Manager for iOS has returned detailed post insights to the product after a version earlier this month was released without them.
Facebook released version 2.0 of its Pages Manager app for iOS in early May to make the app faster and include new features like photo filters. However, it did not include the same level of per-post analytics as previous versions. Page owners could see how many people they reached but when they tapped the area that used to lead to more information, they were instead directed to a screen where they could buy Promoted Posts. Now, the additional metrics have been brought back.
Users can tap the "reach" metric to be taken to a new screen with an additional breakdown of how much of that reach was organic, paid or viral. They can swipe left to see details about engaged users, post clicks, link clicks and stories created. Another swipe will present People Talking About This, likes, comments and shares for the given post.
Page owners can still promote their posts from the app by tapping the "promote" button. Another feature that Facebook removed from Pages Manager a few weeks ago, but hasn't brought back yet is the option to create an Offer post. Admins have to create those from Facebook.com.
Facebook also made some bug fixes and performance updates in the latest version of Pages Manager released this week.
Ifeelgoods enters Facebook PMD program with specialty in digital rewards apps
Digital promotions platform Ifeelgoods today announced that it has been named a Facebook Preferred Marketing Developer with an Apps badge.
The company offers customizable white-labeled Facebook apps that deliver digital rewards to customers. For example, a retailer could incentivize people to make a large purchase by giving them a $10 iTunes gift card in return. After the user completes a transaction, the Ifeelgoods integration will allow him or her to connect with Facebook and claim the gift card. Users will also be prompted to share back to Facebook or on Twitter. Ifeelgoods says 60 percent of customers do this.
Facebook adds Atlas view tag support for custom audiences and partner categories
Atlas view tags can now be used to measure Facebook ads targeted to custom audiences, partner categories and lookalike audiences, the social network informed its largest advertisers this week.
Those targeting types are relatively new to Facebook and weren't previously supported in the Atlas platform, which advertisers and agencies use to plan, manage, track and optimize their digital marketing. Facebook recently bought Atlas from Microsoft. Now, the tool will enable advertisers to track Facebook's new ad types the same as any other. This gives advertisers better view-through measurement on their campaigns that take advantage of the social network's latest capabilities.
Custom audiences allows advertisers to retarget consumers by email addresses, phone numbers or user IDs they already have from previous marketing or sales interactions. "Lookalike audiences" helps advertisers target users similar to those in their custom audience databases, using algorithms to identify audience segments with the same customer profiles. Partner categories are audience segments created by third-party data providers that U.S. advertisers can use for targeting via Power Editor or the API. These categories are informed with transactional data, survey information and other online or offline behaviors. Collectively, these represent tremendous new opportunities for advertisers to target Facebook users by first-party or third-party data.
The social network agreed to acquire Atlas from Microsoft in February. The deal closed at the end of April, and the Atlas team in Seattle is now officially part of Facebook. The company says it bought Atlas to improve measurement capabilities for advertising both on Facebook and across other digital platforms. Atlas says it is working to update its user interface to be more intuitive and effective, as well as create "unique differentiators under Facebook."
Facebook platform industry news: AdRoll, iNvolved Media, Moontoast and SHIFT
Retargeting platform AdRoll announced today that it has added the option for advertisers to run self-serve Facebook Exchange retargeting ads in the News Feed. Facebook made this inventory available to Qualified DSPs, including AdRoll, earlier this month. Previously, AdRoll and other companies could only run FBX ads in the right hand sidebar of Facebook.com, but now they can bid on desktop News Feed placement. AdRoll says early tests show clickthrough rates in the single-digit percentages for News Feed, as opposed to fractions of percent in the sidebar. Unlike other retargeting ads, retargeted News Feed ads incorporate Facebook's share, comment, and like functionalities, which leads to additional engagement and viral potential. An example of a News Feed FBX ad is below. AdRoll is actually running FBX ads retargeting visitors to its own site.

Jeremiah King getting back to a nomal routine
Updated: November 8, 2012
"Walking through the halls, it's like he's a rock star," said Michael King, Jeremiah's dad.
Jeremiah has been home for about two weeks and he is getting to do the things he's been missing for so long.
"Sleeping with Ollie," said Jeremiah.
"Ollie sleeps with Jeremiah every night and so when the accident first happened, it was kind of like Ollie didn't know where to go," said Brandy King, Jeremiah's mom.
Brother and sister time was also on the list.
"I think its been really good for him. I think he's been able to do things because he's been more motivated to get to the point he was at before the accident," said Brandy.
The community is backing him all the way.
"There's really nowhere we go now that somebody doesn't come up to us and just say, you know we've been watching you, we've been praying for you and it just lifts us up so incredibly," said Mike.
"I've not had to think about a meal in three months now," said Brandy.
Which makes it easy for the Kings to focus on being a family.

According to State Police, Ronald Bellard, 52, was driving the Honda three-wheel motorcycle west about 12:30 a.m. as it approached Cash Magic near Industrial Drive.
The front of Bellard's vehicle struck the side of the horse trailer being towed by David Deweer, 42, of Geismar.
Bellard died at the scene. His passenger, Carla Barras, 52, of Opelouas died at Acadian Medical Center. Both were wearing helmets at the time of the crash.
Reports did not indicate how Deweer did not see the oncoming motorcycle.
It is unknown, troopers said, if impairment was a factor in the crash; routine toxicology samples are being analyzed.
Charges are pending outcome of the investigation.

Halo 4 dev wanted sci-fi weapons, but testers didn't like it
Halo franchise creative director Josh Holmes told GDC audiences that 343 Industries toyed with the idea of a stasis gun or grapple harpoon for Halo 4. As reported by Shack News, Holmes said he was very keen to explore and elaborate on Halo's science fiction themes, but testing revealed players didin't respond to kooky weapons and enemies, preferring the more familiar toolbox of shotgun (scattershot), assault rifle and sniper rifle. This helped flatten Halo 4′s learning curve and make it more accessible to the mass market is commands despite being an Xbox 360 exclusive.
