A proud local accomplishment
Published: Friday, November 22, 2013 at 4:31 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, November 22, 2013 at 4:31 p.m.
I recently became aware of the fact that several TV stations have begun to show high school football on television.
I am happy to see this valuable motivation to participate in athletic activity for high school students.
Keep in mind, aside from football, 10 times the number of students participate in the band, pep squad, dance teams and other activities associated with the sport.
All of these activities provide physical outlets for our youth. Naturally, because of so many children being involved, parents are also involved.
Over 40 years ago, Channel 5 of Callais Cablevision aired high school football and other activities associated with it on local TV.
There was tremendous public interest and support for local high schools and their teams.
Channel 5 did not have the wonderful film crews, equipment, modern technology or the resources of the national broadcasting companies.
However, we did have one of the first female broadcasters, Tina Desalvo Callais. She did interviews and play-by-play broadcasting of the games.
Lafourche Parish, particularly the 10th Ward, should be proud of this accomplishment.
Steve Stall

By Diane R. Walker, Combined Arms Center-TrainingMarch 11, 2011
FORT LEAVENWORTH, Kan. - As part of continuing efforts to enhance its computer-based Games for Training efforts, the U.S. Army will bring together about 200 Army training developers, schoolhouse instructors and operators for a March event to share ideas and best practices on using Virtual BattleSpace 2 (VBS2) and other Army games for training.
The TRADOC Capability Manager (TCM) Gaming and the U.S. Army Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (PEO STRI) will host the second annual Army Games for Training User Conference March 21-23 in Orlando, Fla.
The event, which coincides with the Defense GameTech 2011 Conference, will offer a forum for leaders, Soldiers, training developers, trainers and operators to discuss and learn about VBS2, Command and Control Connectivity, Elect BiLat, Moral Combat, Tactical Language, UrbanSim, the MilGaming Portal and other Army gaming-related topics.
VBS2 is a commercial game-based training platform that blends a user-friendly, semi-immersive environment with scenario authoring tools, after-action review replay capabilities and a powerful development suite. To help train company and smaller units, the U.S. Army has fielded the first-person shooter-style software and hardware to more than 75 Active, Reserve and National Guard Battle Command Training Centers (BCTC), TRADOC institutions and other selected locations. Any unit or organization can download VBS2 free from the MilGaming website (https://milgaming.army.mil ). VBS2 provides a platform for training Soldiers on multiple individual and collective tasks and mission rehearsal.
Presenters at the March 21-23 conference will include representatives from the Maneuver and Fires Centers of Excellence; Center for the Army Profession and Ethics; BCTCs at Fort Bragg, Fort Stewart and U.S. Army Europe; and the 1/75th Battle Command Training Brigade. The speakers will discuss innovative ways to use VBS2 and other military gaming in operational units and at academic institutions. The conference also will include hands-on tutorials on scenario and terrain development and system interoperability as well as opportunities to exchange ideas and training insights.
Keynote speaker for the event will be Colonel Anthony Krogh, Director of the U.S. Army's National Simulation Center at Fort Leavenworth, Kan. Colonel Krogh will discuss the future of Army gaming and how it will help Soldiers and leaders adapt to changing requirements and limited resources.
Registration for the Games for Training User Conference is open through Friday, March 18, at http://guest.cvent.com/d/fdqgqk. Anyone interested in using VBS2 to support training or gaming is invited to attend. Note: Contractors, industry representatives and foreign military representatives must be sponsored by PEO STRI or TCM Gaming. Additionally, individuals can register through the cvent.com website to view displaying slides and hear audio from general session presentations through Defense Connect Online.
The National Simulation Center is a subordinate of the U.S. Army's Combined Arms Center-Training, which delivers training programs, products and services to leaders and units in support of Army readiness. Wherever Army training occurs, the Combined Arms Center-Training helps make it happen. To learn more about the Combined Arms Center-Training, visit http://usacac.army.mil/cac2/cac-t/, www.facebook.com/usacactraining or www.twitter.com/usacactraining.
Headquartered in Orlando, Fla., the U.S. Army PEO STRI executes an annual budget of more than $3 billion. In addition to providing interoperable training and testing solutions and program management, PEO STRI provides life cycle support for the Army's most advanced training systems around the world. PEO STRI is dedicated to putting the power of simulation into the hands of our Warfighters.

Japan Seeks to Buy 193,417 Tons Milling Wheat Dec. 7
Japan is seeking to buy 193,417 metric tons of milling wheat from the U.S. and Canada in a tender on Dec. 7, the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries said today.
Shipment is set from Jan. 21 to Feb. 20, Masafumi Otsuka at the ministry's grain-trade division said today by phone. The tender is brought forward by two days as the government hastens purchases on tightening supply and rising prices of the grain.
Japan bought 209,297 metric tons of U.S. milling wheat at a tender yesterday, the largest purchase in two years. More than half of the wheat crop from Australia's Queensland state may deteriorate to feed grade following heavy rain, tightening milling-quality supplies, according to Wayne Newton, grains president of Brisbane-based farm group Agforce.
Wheat in Chicago reached the highest level in almost four months as buyers seeking high-quality wheat may raise purchases from the U.S., the largest exporter, said Charlie Utsunomiya, director at the Tokyo office of U.S. Wheat Associates.
Details of this week's tender are listed below:

Our Tree Named Steve
Our Tree Named Steve
G. P. Putnam's Sons, Hardcover, 9780399237225, 32pp.
Publication Date: April 1, 2005
A long time ago, when you were little, Mom and I took you to where we wanted to build a house . . . . I remember there was one tree, however, that the three of you couldn't stop staring at . . . ."
After the family spares him from the builders, Steve the tree quickly works his way into their lives. He holds their underwear when the dryer breaks down, he's there when Adam and Lindsay get their first crushes, he's the centerpiece at their outdoor family parties. With a surprising lack of anthropomorphizing, this is a uniquely poignant celebration of fatherhood, families, love, and change.
David Catrow is an editorial cartoonist and the illustrator of more thanseventy books for children, including the New York Times bestseller I Ain't Gonna Paint No More! and I Like Myself!, both written by Karen Beaumont, Dozens of Cousins by Shutta Crum, Plantzilla by Jerdine Nolen, and Rotten Teeth by Laura Simms. He lives in Ohio. Visit his website at www.catrow.com.
In a letter to his three children who are visiting their grandparents, a father recalls all the wonderful things Steve the tree has been to their family. When they visited the empty lot where they would build their house, Sari, the youngest, couldn't say tree, so she said "Steve." Thus, a family friend was dubbed. He was perfect for shade and hanging laundry when the dryer broke. He even held a hammock for fat Uncle Chester and drank all the sewer water when the sump backed up. Being a tree has its dangers, and a storm knocked Steve down. Friend to the last, Steve didn't fall on the house, doghouse, swing set or garden. Dad's writing to warn the kids that Steve won't greet them when they return, but his lumber has made a wonderful new playhouse. Zweibel and Catrow have created a faultless piece of bibliotherapy for children working through loss. Catrow's usual bright, wide-eyed, exuberant watercolors bring individuality and immediacy to Zweibel's simple text. Steve's almost-face shines in each illustration of this sentimental tribute.

I made these years ago and we put the lights in the jars. They were fun to make and give as gifts.
Sep 24, 2011
In the mid 90"s a friend of mine and I made enough of these to buy us tickets to Fl. for a weeks vacation in Mar. We got our jars from the local day cares. We had a blast making them and charged $20.00/tree. We also took orders ie. all blue including lights or white lights or multi colored lights. Enjoy!

You seem to be showing off quite a sonic arsenal on this track, I love the melodies which are layered between each other while the track progresses forward. The pads sound expressive, the bass sounds smooth and the vocal samples work rather well.
My only real complaint is that your hat sounds abit too 'hissy' and the vocal samples seem slightly 'off-beat' at the beggining (but that might just be me).
Pretty awesome work overall. I would be interested in seeing and listening to any Happy-Hardcore tracks you make :)

Basilique Saint Michel, Bordeaux
6 Reviews
6 Reviews
One of the buildings of Bordeaux that is visible from basically everywhere, the Basilique Saint Michel is also very beautiful and offers the best panoramic view from its belfry.
The basilica was built between the 14th and 16th century in Gothic "flamboyant" style. It is one of South France's biggest churches and measures some 75m in length. While interesting from the inside, I found it to be rather gloomy as well and didn't spend very much time in there.
More interesting was the "flèche" (=arrow), the 114m high belfry. Like the belfry of Bordeaux's Cathédrale Saint André, it is not part of the actual building, but standing separated a few metres away from it. For an entry fee of 4,50 Euros you can ascend the narrow spiral staircase and you are rewarded with the best view over Bordeaux. Surrounding the church are the thousands of roofs of the old quarter of Bordeaux. They seem to make up one uninterrupted area of houses, but there is of course the labyrinth of alleys. Only a stone's throw away is the Garonne, lined by the quais of Bordeaux with the magnificent Miroir d'Eau. In the distance, you can see the wine regions of Aquitaine.
The flèche suffered severe damage during an earthquake in 1759 and during a hurricane in 1768 so that it had to be rebuilt in the late 19th century.
Address: Place Meynard
Directions: Quartier Saint Michel
In the South side of the central town area is a stunning Gothic Basillica and huge separate belfry almost 400 feet tall. Apparently you can go to the top of the belfry, however, when I was there the base of the bellfry had been taken over by homeless protesters.
St. Michael's Basilica was built over a 200 year period starting in 1350 with many modifications and changes in style so that it blends Gothic and Renaissance. It is usually approached on its North sidee as one proceeds from the Stone Bridge. The transept doors and North side were undergoing a severely needed cleaning when we came. Each transept has a Rose window and a tympanum, while the West door supports a large window above its carved tympaum. The tympani are late creations and we could not find information on their programs. The doors display other good examples of stonework. To the west of the church stands its free standing bell tower (which we describe in a General Tip), the tallest point in the city.
Directions: South of the Stone Bridge near the river. See the tall bell tower.
The interior of the church discloses a tall and broad-arched nave in two levels. with a tall arcade and large upper windows.. The windows in the choir were destroyed in WWII and delightful new ones were created by Max Ingrand. The pretty pulpit of the 18C shows St.-Michel killing the dragon on its top. (The church is poorly illuminated and our photos are poor).
Construction of the Basilica St. Michel began sometime in the 1350's and took over 200 years to complete. The structure is a wonderful example of gothic architecture along with Fleche St. Michel. Although each structure stands on its own they both comprise what is considered to be one structure. They stand at a famous pilgrimage route and are a UNESCO world Heritage Site.
We didn't have the opportunity to view the interior of the building, but it is quite impressive from the outside. The Basilica does look like it can use a bit of cleaning.
Address: rue Permentade

Southern Writers/Sucky Simpsons
This weekend I had the good fortune to collide with a pair of great art-and-entertainment spectacles, both involving (displaced) southern writers of note.
The first came on Friday, when I caught the ROCKRGRL showcase of Nashville-by-way-of-New-York singer/songwriter Amy Rigby upstairs at Cafe Vita. Since the release of her 1996 debut Diary of a Mod Housewife, Rigby's been one of my favorite living writers, and her too-short-but-that's-the-name-of-the-game RKRGRL set showcased what I've long loved about the lady (her wit, lyrical economy, and emotional fearlessless) as well as some impressive new traits (left alone with only an acoustic guitar, she can still rock the fuck out).
Saturday brought displaced Southern writer #2: Capote, whom I found flickering on the screen at the Egyptian. As press everywhere has attested, Philip Seymour Hoffman does a creepily good job bringing Capote's simpering genius to life, and for anyone interested in how books get written, the movie is a must-see.
Then, on Sunday, all my good art karma came crashing down, with the broadcast of a new episode of The Simpsons. The show has been dabbling in suckiness for yearsgoopy learning-and-growing, sickly-sweet (for the Simpsons) happy endings. But last night's episode made it official: The Simpsons have jumped the shark. Unprecedented goop (lesson of the night: moms get lonely, too), wince-worthy plot points (Marge and Bart get a bicycle built for two! And visit an English tea house! Then wrap it all up with a karaoke duet!), all "sustained" by a parade of self-cannibalized jokes from seasons pastit's like they're not even trying anymore. This sense of a barely subconscious Simpsons death wish was brutally underscored by the final scene: Marge singing "Sweet Home Alabama" into a remote control. We get it. You're done. Now die, and let us forever cherish the unparalleled brilliance of the Simpsons's glory years. (If there have every been five funnier words placed in a row than "the Blunchblack of Blotre Blame," I am not aware of it.)

de Clare
|House de Clare
|Noble House
| Duchy of Normandy
Lordship of Glamorgan
Kingdom of England
Lordship of Ireland
|Various Earldoms, Baronies and over 190 Manorial Lordships
|Earls, Barons, and Knights
|Richard fitz Gilbert
The de Clare family of Norman lords were associated with the Welsh Marches, Suffolk, Surrey, Kent (especially Tonbridge) and Ireland. They were descended from Richard Fitz Gilbert, 1st Lord of Clare (1035-1090), who accompanied William the Conqueror (1028-1087) into England during the Norman conquest of England. In the paternal line they were illegitimate descendants of the House of Normandy, through one of Richard I, Duke of Normandy's sons, Geoffrey de Brionne, 1st Count of Eu, 1st Count of Brionne. The early Normans followed the Viking custom of marriage called more danico, which they considered a legitimate form of marriage.[1] It was the Church that considered this the same as concubinage and thus, it did not commanded the same respect and inviolability as Christian marriage thus making Geoffrey an illegitimate child.[2][3] They became one of the most powerful and influential noble families of their time in England, Wales, and Ireland.
The de Clare family descends from Gilbert de Brionne, 2nd Count of Eu, 2nd Count of Brionne, whose father Geoffrey de Brionne was the eldest of the illegitimate sons of Richard I, Duke of Normandy. Gilbert de Brionne was one of the guardians of William II, who became Duke of Normandy as a child in 1035. When Gilbert was assassinated in 1039 or 1040, his young sons Baldwin de Meules et du Sap and Richard de Bienfaite et d'Orbec fled with their guardians to Baldwin V, Count of Flanders; they returned to Normandy when William married Baldwin's daughter in 1053, and William took them into high favour. After the conquest of England Richard received huge estates including Clare and Tonbridge, the estate whose name was normally coupled with his.
According to Richard Mortimer, he was "the founder of the English, Welsh, and Irish baronial family which historians usually call 'of de Clare'."[4] Historical sources are vague and sometimes contradictory about when the name de Clare came into common usage, but Richard fitz Gilbert (of Tonbridge) is once referred to as Richard of Clare in the Suffolk return of the Domesday Survey.[5] Baldwin de Meules was left in charge of Exeter on its submission (1068) and made sheriff of Devonshire. Large estates in Devonshire and Somersetshire are entered to him in Domesday as "Baldwin of Exeter" or "Baldwin the Sheriff". [6]
On his death, Richard's English estates passed to his son Gilbert de Clare, 2nd Lord of Clare (1055-1117) who was the first to use the surname de Clare instead of fitz after the Barony of the same designation. Gilbert's eldest son Richard de Clare, 3rd Lord of Clare (1090-1136) was the ancestor of the earls of Hertford and Gloucester. Gilbert's younger son Gilbert, establishing himself in Wales, acquired the Earldom of Pembroke and Lordship of Striguil. The elder line obtained the Earldom of Hertford, and were thenceforth known as earls of Hertford and of Clare.[7]John Horace Round suggested that it was probably because Gilbert de Clare had no interests in Hertfordshire that they were loosely and usually styled the Earls of (de) Clare.[6]
In the Dictionary of National Biography he stated that investigation showed that the claim that they were "styled earls of Clare" before they were earls of Hertford was not true; they were alternately called Hertford or of Clare.[8] On the other hand, Frank Barlow places Gilbert de Clare as Earl of Hertford in the group of barons given earldoms between 1138 and 1142, and states that they all had "substantial local interests".[9] Ralph Henry Carless Davis states that Gilbert was a witness as Earl of Hertford at Christmas 1141, and it is generally believed that he had been Earl since 1138; but that there is no prospect of clarifying the matter because of the others of the same name. He notes also that "In a military capacity earls figure largely in the capacity of defenders of their counties in the chronicles of Stephen's reign." He therefore argues against the title as a personal dignity at that period.[10] The general scholarly view is now that the title earl of Clare was self-assumed.
In 1217–20 Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Hertford, 5th Earl of Gloucester (died 1230), inherited the estates of William Fitz Robert, 2nd Earl of Gloucester (died 1183), including the earldom and honour of Gloucester and the lordship of Glamorgan. Richard de Clare, 2nd Earl of Pembroke (died 1176), known as Strongbow, had no sons and with his death this line came to an end, his many Irish and Welsh possessions passing to his daughter Isabel, who married William Marshal, (c. 1146 – 14 May 1219) who then became known as William Marshal, 1st Earl of Pembroke.[8]
Coat of arms[edit]
The coat and shield with the three chevrons was probably first used at the end of the 12th century.[11] The stained glass window above is not earlier than Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Hertford, 5th Earl of Gloucester, the first de Clare to be buried in the chancel of Tewkesbury Abbey. King Iestyn ap Gwrgant [ˈjɛstɪn ap ˈgʊrgant] (or Jestyn ap Gwrgant) (English: Justin, son of Gwrgant) (c. 1045 – 1093) was the last ruler of the Welsh kingdom of Morgannwg, which encompassed the counties of Glamorgan and Monmouthshire. King Iestyn ap Gwrgant was the last ruler of the royal house of Morgannwg, which had a lineage stretching back over five centuries to Tewdrig (c. 550–584). The members of this royal house had links to the other royal houses of Wales through marriage, and were descendants of the celebrated Rhodri Mawr. Glamorgan would eventually become the Lordship of Glamorgan which was held by the de Clare family for centuries.

Re: Should an account of my wifes be on my credit report?
I've done them here and at TC through their online dispute process. You can print out a copy of exactly what you've disputed and when they are done with their investigation they email you the results along with a link to view more info regarding the decisions.
EQ still requires a letter and if you dispute EQ at myfico you can print out a letter that needs the last 4 of your SS# and your signature and it's ready to mail with all your dispute info on it.
I've run into a little trouble at TU as I'm going over reports. There were 2 other things that I needed to dispute and tried to go in and it won't let me dispute. We just got the results from the 1st dispute today and yesterday. I don't know why I'm not being allowed to dispute again. The 2 things I need to dispute weren't included on the first dispute. I guess I'll try again tomorrow or just send them a letter.

Dan, you forgot that all Democrats are in Hell. DEMONcrats? See? Huh? Well, the Dems starting from FDR anyway.
Has the late Pope become one of the X-Men?
I'm sure if you took a series of stop action pics of a bonfire you'd find all kinds of people waving at you.
I'm surprised Issur hasn't posted his nonsense yet.
funny, i thought the fire looked like hitler
I think the fire looks like pointy-haired boss in Dilbert. In profile, looking to the right of the picture.
I'd say instead, the Holy Trinity just became - THE FANTASTIC FOUR!
This is idiotic. This could look like a number of other things as well. The fact that the church is paying it any attention to it at all is frustrating. This is a sort of blind faith "miracle" to take people's attention away from pertinent matters in the world.
-Concerned Progressive Catholic.
I think he's in Hell getting it ready for the Red Bushies who will be going there.
Then, after that penance, God will let him back into Heaven. But only if he stops calling Her a guy.
Back when I was a student at Bob Jones University, they kept telling us the papists were crazy. Maybe they were right. (What's that old saying about the kettle calling the pot black or something?)
I celebrated my 29th birthday yesterday. I mention this only because I was born on the exact same day the man pictured on the right became Pope John Paul II: October 16, 1978.
Clearly the flames are the exact image of Ozzy Osbourne grasping the mike stand to keep from falling down. And he's not even dead yet.
@12, but what about the man on the left?
this is the best dead catholic sighting since the virgin mary herself appeared in the glass facade of a bank in clearwater, florida.
@3: John PYRO II?

I enabled and installed a network without properly checking if my wildcard subdomain was working. The main site wasn't working properly so I reverted back to old .htaccess and wp-config.php but not to the back-up of database.
The client has now made a lot of changes to the site so I cannot now revert to the pre-network database to start from scratch.
If I try to enable network now will I run into problems with the database?

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama vigorously defended sweeping secret surveillance into America's phone records and foreigners' Internet use, declaring "we have to make choices as a society."
Taking questions today from reporters at a health care event in San Jose, Calif., Obama said, "It's important to recognize that you can't have 100 percent security and also then have 100 percent privacy and zero inconvenience."
It was revealed late Wednesday that the National Security Agency has been collecting the phone records of hundreds of millions of U.S. phone customers.
The leaked document first reported by the Guardian newspaper gave the NSA authority to collect from all of Verizon's land and mobile customers, but intelligence experts said the program swept up the records of other phone companies too. Another secret program revealed Thursday scours the Internet usage of foreign nationals overseas who use any of nine U.S.-based internet providers such as Microsoft and Google.
In his first comments since the programs were publicly revealed this week, Obama said safeguards are in place.
"They help us prevent terrorist attacks," Obama said. He said he has concluded that prevention is worth the "modest encroachments on privacy."
Obama is making Nixon look like a piker
Yeah, I am sure there is nothing to worry about. What a few phone records? It's not like the govt is tapping into the servers of internet providers or using the IRS to investigate potential political adversaries while insisting it wasn't a coordinated program, or bugging jounalists, or running guns into Mexico to drug lords, or dragging their feet in the investigation of an ambassador's murder, or... (fill in the blank).Yes Barack Hussein Obama makes Nixon look like a rank amateur. And he complains about Communist China hacking into our government and business computers.
OBAMMY has to be the worst president this country has ever had.. He's even starting to beLIEve his own lies. It's impeachment time !!!!!!! . His WHOLE administration should be thrown out now.But I guess this is what the dumbocrats wanted .
Big ado about nothing.
There's nothing to debate. The Congress legislated, the Executive branch executed and the Judicial branch has approved, and continues to approve. Representatives of both Parties agreed to this action.
For those who don't want their purses and suitcases x-rayed, don't use airplanes.
For those who don't want their phone records available for examination, don't use the phone.
For those who don't want their internet activity observed, don't use the internet.
The 4th amendment uses the term "unreasonable" . Your elected representatives have decided that these actions are reasonable in light of the threats to national security.
Since I don't have access to the threat status, I have to rely on others to judge that if it is reasonable.
There seems to be bi-partisan agreement on this, so it's not a republican versus democrat thing.
Sorry zz3, didn't intend to force you to use your most persuasive debating skills.

April 9 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stock-index futures were little changed, following yesterday's gain by the Standard & Poor's 500 Index, as Alcoa Inc. started the quarterly earnings season by posting profit that exceeded estimates.
Alcoa advanced 3.1 percent in early New York trading after forecasting that global demand for aluminum will exceed production this year. Intuitive Surgical Inc. slumped 9.1 percent after predicting that first-quarter revenue will decline by more than a fifth.
Futures on the S&P 500 expiring in June gained less than 0.1 percent to 1,846 at 7:23 a.m. in New York, while contracts on the Dow Jones Industrial Average added 24 points, or 0.2 percent, to 16,204 today.
"Alcoa has kicked off the reporting season with its first quarter numbers," Richard Hunter, head of equities at Hargreaves Lansdown Plc in London, wrote in an e-mail. "The market's recent lackluster performance offers the potential of something of a recovery. This will largely depend on improving U.S. economic data and, in particular, the strength of the corporate updates in the next few weeks."
The S&P 500 rose 0.4 percent yesterday as technology shares dragged the index higher. The benchmark had retreated 2.4 percent in the previous three-day period.
The Federal Reserve releases the minutes of its March 18-19 meeting at 2 p.m. today. Officials dropped the link between interest rates and a specific level of employment at that gathering. The Federal Open Market Committee said it would look at indicators including labor-market conditions, inflation expectations and financial markets.
Leverage Ratios
The Fed yesterday increased the capital requirements of the largest U.S. lenders. The central bank increased the leverage ratio -- equity held as a proportion of total assets -- to 5 percent from 3 percent. America's banks will need to find as much as $68 billion in loss-absorbing capital under the new rule, which goes beyond the minimum set by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.
Alcoa climbed 3.1 percent to $12.92 as it marked the unofficial start of the earnings season. The largest U.S. aluminum producer posted profit excluding restructuring costs and other one-off items of 9 cents a share, more than the 5-cent average estimate of analysts surveyed by Bloomberg. The company also forecast a global supply deficit of 730,000 metric tons. In January, it had predicted a 106,000-ton surplus.
JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Wells Fargo & Co. are among the S&P 500 companies that report their earnings on Friday. The benchmark's companies increased their profit per share by 1 percent in the first quarter, according to estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Their sales climbed 2.9 percent, the data show.
Intuitive Surgical plunged 9.1 percent to $445.02. The maker of surgical robots said it probably generated sales of $465 million for the first three months of 2014, a 24 percent decline from a year earlier. Intuitive shipped 87 of its robots in the quarter compared with 164 in the year-earlier period. The company releases its results for the quarter on April 22.

Hi! I'm a new FTM who plans on becoming a SAHM (possibly a WAHM) in June. I was just wondering what books/mags everyone is reading to prepare for baby? I plan on getting What to Expect: The 1st Year, but is there anything else to help? And any suggestions on info regarding issues like breastfeeding vs formula, organic vs non organic, etc., would be helpful; I'm still not sure where I stand on certain issues. Right now I feel a little lost.

DuPont supplied the thin-film photovoltaic modules that were recently installed at Hongkong Electric's Lamma Power Station. Manufactured by DuPont Apollo, a China-based DuPont subsidiary, the modules generate electricity using amorphous silicon, rather than traditional polycrystalline silicon. Because the modules consume less than 1% of the silicon that traditional solar cells do, DuPont says, energy payback times are short.

Here's what's on tap at the V.I. Legislature this week.
Half a dozen young people, local artists and music producers have created a peace song for Carnival 2014. To read more about the song, click here.
How many more businesses and jobs lost will it take our government to realize they really have to do something fast.
What is better? Paying $200 to WAPA for the LEAC (and that dollar amount will vary by customer) that goes to just purchasing more fuel, or the customer being able to go out into the community to purchase goods and services that should lead to more businesses opening and job creation with that $200?

Everything about Giraffe Manor is top-notch, which we discovered the moment we arrived: it was 10:15 at night, at the end of an 8-hour flight from London, which came after a 6-hour flight from the United States. They provided us dinner! First in importance here is feeding the giraffes their kibble from the breakfast room each morning, undoubtedly a unique experience and perfectly charming. The wonderful staff even carefully framed the pictures they took of us doing this. Our room was huge and comfortable, and the bathroom equally so. We never sat down anywhere for more than a few moments before a staff member would inquire if he or she could get something for us. Food was plentiful and delicious, and we met interesting people around the large dinner table and during drinks. And everything was covered in the initial cost of the room, including a driver to take us around. That was perhaps what we most appreciated. The only glitch was that the Internet was not working well, and even when it was fixed, it wasn't very good. That aside, I would say that this is one of the most memorable places we have ever stayed at. Anyone who is planning to be near Nairobi should consider it (it's not cheap).

It sounds pretty good. I like the melodies and the beat, and even though it is kind of repetitive, somehow it doesn't really get old to listen to. But I think too much tremolo/pan was used. Listening with headphones, It makes me feel a bit dizzy from all of the panning going on, especially in the first 20 seconds. Aside from the tremolo, it seems like the sound is too heavy on the left. I wish everything was more centered for a better balance and less tremolo. That's just my thoughts, though. I hope you don't mind my review. Good job.

This may be a dupe (or sufficiently similar to) these 2: http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/15637/bug-quoting-multiple-separate-blocks-sometimes-locks-up-the-browser-with-javascr and Firefox freezes (script execution uses 100% cpu) upon trying to quote, but those are a year old and have no answer.
I posted an answer on cooking.stackexchange.com. (I presume the error still goes to this meta: please move it if I'm wrong).
In this answer I wanted multiple blockquotes. Whenever I tried to achieve this by just working in the edit box and using the blockquote button, my browser (tested in both IE and Chrome) would freeze up when I started the second blockquote. I worked around the problem by doing the thing in stages and with a notepad window open as well, so I got out the answer anyway, but that's obviously no good.

Fire damages two homes Tuesday
Published: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 at 4:45 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 at 4:45 p.m.
Firefighters fought two house fires in Henderson County Tuesday, according to Wally Hollis, Henderson County fire marshal.
A woman suffered third-degree burns to her hands after her stove caught on fire Tuesday in her modular home in the Green River community. Firefighters responded to 47 Maybin Road at 3:30 p.m. and were able to contain the fire to the kitchen; however, the rest of the home was damaged by smoke and heat.
Green River Volunteer Fire and Rescue, Blue Ridge Fire and Rescue, Saluda Volunteer Fire and Rescue, Valley Hill Fire and Rescue, Henderson County Rescue Squad and EMS responded to the fire.
Shortly before 8 p.m. in Etowah, firefighters battled another fire to a modular home at 485 Little Lake Drive.
Fire crews were able to contain the fire to one side of the home, which was a total loss as a result of heat and smoke damage, Hollis said.
No injuries were reported and the cause is under investigation. Foul play is not suspected.
Etowah-Horse Shoe Volunteer Fire Department, Mountain Home Fire and Rescue, Mills River Volunteer Fire and Rescue, Valley Hill Fire and Rescue and Henderson County Rescue Squad worked the fire.
