Temperatures will continue to go up this week, but humidity will stay comfortable until the end of this work week.
It will stay mainly sunny and dry today with very low humidity; so even thought highs will be warmer today with highs getting into the upper 80s, it will stay comfortable. Our normal high this time of year is 87.
Tonight will be mainly clear and comfortable, overnight lows will drop down to the middle 60s. Our normal low this time of year is 67.
Hot weather returns for Thursday with highs into the lower 90s. Humidity levels will start to creep up some with a few extra clouds. A cold front will move toward the Virginia and North Carolina border late Thursday, so there will be a slight risk of a late day shower or storm. Friday will be mostly to partly sunny with a high of 91.
The upcoming holiday weekend will be above normal for temperatures. Look for mostly to partly sunny skies on Saturday with highs near 90. On Sunday we will have just a slight risk of a PM shower or storm, otherwise it will be partly sunny with highs in the upper 80s to near 90. Labor Day will have some clouds with a couple showers or storms possible. Highs on Monday will continue in the upper 80s.
Tuesday will be partly sunny with a chance of a shower or storm. Temperatures will stay above normal with a high near 90.
In the tropics, Hurricane Cristobal continues to stay away from any land. The hurricane continues to move north and is about 400 west of Bermuda today. Maximum sustained winds are near 80 mph and the hurricane is not expected to any land masses before becoming non tropical by the weekend. Possible rip currents and higher than normal surf will be possible along the North Carolina coastline.

Child Labor and the Textile Mills
Today there are laws that regulate how many hours children can work and at what age they can begin to work. That was not always the case. In the early 1900s there were no Georgia laws prohibiting child labor, a situation that coincided with the rise of the textile industry. Professor John Lupold of Columbus College describes how poor Georgians abandoned their farms and moved to cities to find work. Times were so hard that everyone in the family worked. Retired textile mill workers Lee Manly, Jeannette Scales, and Charlie Stafford describe their work in the mills. Scales went to work part-time, only 6 hours per day, so she could attend school. Her pay was ten cents per hour. Stafford tells stories of children being spanked when they did not do the work properly. Lupold points to photographs of textile children noting they all have dark circles under their eyes and look weary, older than their years. Fatigued workers cannot do their best at work or school. Mill work was hazardous and among its dangers were splintered wood floors that could cause trouble for bare feet. Lint in the air was another problem. Breathed in, this lint could cause a fatal disease known as brown lung. Some parents wanted their children to work and protested when compulsory school attendance laws were passed. Today, the age and length of time children can work is governed by law. A list of current provisions closes the segment.

Muhammad Ali might have been known to "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee," but at his 70th birthday soiree this weekend, graceful pop singer, [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Kelly Rowland[/lastfm], showed that she "floats like a butterfly" and sings like a beautiful nightinale.
Accompanied by legend [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Stevie Wonder [/lastfm]on piano, Rowland covered Whitney Houston's 1986 "The Greatest Love of All" which was originally recorded by George Benson for the 1977 Muhammad Ali biopic The Greatest.
According to Rap-Up, Rowland said about Houston: "I remember the first time I met her, she was just such an angel and so supportive and had great words of encouragement to say about the music industry. To meet such an icon and a legend like her, you're just like, 'I was in her presence.'"
I am beyond heartbroken. Whitney Houston was undoubtedly one of the greatest singers & performers of all time & such a huge influence on me.—

She embraced me when I first started out with Destiny's Child, with love, with encouragement and with that powerhouse voice.—

Facing rival Oak Hill for the second time in less than a week, the Fayetteville girls didn't desire a repeat of the first encounter.
In that contest last Wednesday, a cold-shooting Fayetteville squad was forced to rally before eventually slipping by the Red Devils 53-47 in overtime.
This time, the Pirates were a little more efficient and took care of matters in regulation time, racing to a 12-0 lead en route to posting a 59-40 final verdict Monday at the Fayette County Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Building.
"This time we started in more of an aggressive mode," said Fayetteville coach John Mark Kincaid. "(Last week) we shot poorly and couldn't get in our pressure defense.
"We played better for four quarters tonight."
"We didn't play any ball; we just didn't execute," said Oak Hill coach Marshall Murray. "We weren't boxing out, and we had 10 turnovers on the fast break that cost us early.
"Our reactions are so terrible."
Oak Hill starting guards Alyssa Barron and Savannah Keffer were hampered by foul trouble all evening before eventually fouling out. "The referees were calling it tight, and we really need to adjust to how the refs are calling the game. We still need to do a better job of staying out of foul trouble," said Murray.
The Red Devils' leading scorer, Kaitlyn Goodman, finished with 14 points, but her court time was limited in the second half due to an injury.
Despite all that, the Red Devils hung tough, trimming a 17-point deficit to 10, with Sarah Kessler's putback making it 33-23 with 2:27 left in the third period.
The Pirates were up to the challenge, though. Kaitlyn Sisler scored a two-pointer, Maddie Pritt converted a putback, and Avina Sedlock took an assist from Kendall Malay and finished off a fast break, the latter capping a 6-0 run that handed the Pirates a 39-23 spread with a quarter remaining.
Malay, a freshman, finished with 19 points and 10 rebounds to lead the Fayetteville attack. She tallied nine straight points in her team's early 12-0 spurt.
Pritt added 13 points and Sisler chipped in 10.
Kessler's nine points supported Goodman's 14 for the Red Devils (5-11).
"Other girls came in and hustled," said Murray, pointing specifically to Kessler and Destini Davis (five points).
Kincaid was glad he was able to shuffle several players in and out of the lineup as the game progressed.
"We're trying to play a lot of players to get ready for sectionals," he said. "I thought we played okay."
Fayetteville coasted to a 31-12 victory in the junior varsity game.
Rachel Mankins led the Pirates with eight points. Also in the scoring column were: Brandi Richmond, 6; Hannah Franklin, 5; Emily Reeves, 4; Jordan Lawhorn, 4; and Faith Norris, 4.
Cydney Thomas scored 10 for the Red Devils, and teammate Brianna Ovalle netted two.

/man"yoo-la"ri-tee/ ("manual" + "granularity") A notional measure of the manual labor required for some task, particularly one of the sort that automation is supposed to eliminate. "Composing English on paper has much higher manularity than using a text editor, especially in the revising stage." Hackers tend to consider manularity a symptom of primitive methods; in fact, a true hacker confronted with an apparent requirement to do a computing task by hand will inevitably seize the opportunity to build another tool (see toolsmith).

Alright, everybody, how are y'all doing? I'm doing great, for anyone that cares. Anyways, I went to the Hooks game last night and Ross Seaton was on the mound, which never really did anything to me...But then, I remembered that a lot of people here(including me) have been wondering where his velocity is sitting, preferably his fastball velocity. So yesterday, I decided to jot down all his velocity readings, including his slider, change-up and curveball. Just to let everyone know, it was pretty much a last-minute decision to do this, most since I knew a lot of people here were curious. So after the jump, I'll have a little bit of analyzation and I THINK all of his velocity readings.
We'll start with his fastball, which I can't even put into words how dominating he was with it. Just about every single pitch was a fastball, and every single fastball was pinpointed right where he wanted it. I really don't know what to say, it was just awesome watching the batters jump back on a fastball, but then to realize it was placed right on the inside corner.
Anyways, here are his readings(all pitches):
- Fastballs in order from slowest to fastest: 2x 90, 11x 91, 23x 92, 12x 93, 6x 94;
- Sliders " ": 1x 80, 1x 81, 1x 82, 6x 83, 8x 84, 1x 85;
- Change-ups " ": 3x 84, 3x 85, 1x 86, 1x 88
- Curveballs " ": 1x 76, 1x77
So, if I counted right, Seaton threw 54 of his 85 pitches as a fastball, which is 63.5% of the time. I didn't notice any trends at all, just that there seemed to be a lot of fastballs. It really was awesome. His slider was nasty, too. He garnered some really, really ugly swings with that pitch. I may have missed a couple pitches, as I only have accounted for 82 of 85 pitches. And I think it's pretty nice that he sat at 92 and 93 mph for the whole game. The only time where he threw more than 2 fastballs in a row, at lower than 92, was the 2nd to last batter; Seaton threw three 91 mph fastballs in a row, resulting in a line-out.
Seaton was sitting on his fastball and slider, and it worked. He constantly pounded the zone, getting really easy outs. His worst inning was the 5th, in which he may have been too aggressive. The 5th started by giving up a long fly ball to right field, and Jacob Goebbert caught the ball right at the short fence, at the right field bullpen. After the first batter, Seaton gave up really sharp double down the left field line, then that double was followed with an absolute shot to George Springer, who had hardly any time to catch the ball; he sprinted over to the warning track, making a great play. After the first 3 lucky shots, he got a routine fly ball out to Wates, who took about 5 steps back.
Another really impressive sequence was in the 7th inning. Seaton had got a strikeout, but that was followed by two sharp hits and lineout. Gary Ruby comes out of the dugout and visits(Seaton was rattled, it was obvious), and the very first pitch he throws to the next guy was a curverball at 77 mph, then a nice change-up swinging. On the 3rd pitch, he threw an ABSOLUTELY PERFECT slider on the outside corner. Jason Hagerty just flicked at the pitch(emergency hack), but missed.
His slider seemed to be devastating, and his change-up was a really strong compliment. His curveball was a rare sight, but it was thrown at the perfect times(3rd and 7th).
All in all, it really was a perfectly pitched game, that deserved some amature analysis. I was drooling and my mom was laughing at me because I was in such amazement. I think I was so happy and surprised because I told my mom(I was being absolutely serious) that Seaton would throw a complete game shut-out, striking out 4. He completely exceeded what I thought he would do; the only reason why his was GS was lower than his high of 83, was because of outs and the extra inning(thanks, reillocity). So, Imo, this was his best outing I've ever seen(Keith Bodie agrees).
I wanted to share this. This is Jacob Goebbert, who is one of the nicest players I've ever met. We talked for like 5 minutes and I told him 'Pride of Northwestern!' and he FREAKED out like a little kid. He was talking about his college days and how much he loves CC and the team. He said this is probably the most competitive team he's ever played with. He really appreciates the fans, which makes me feel good. I think he may be favorite non-top prospect, especially after yesterday. Also, considering how focused they usually are, I thought it was really cool how long he talked to me, and I did hardly any of the talking, which makes me feel even better.
P.S: I was very nervous and sweating like a beast because of how hot and humid it was.

This is a classic video from the University of Wisconsin-Madison that will open your empathy eyes and help you see (and hear) what it is like to use a screen reader.
Accessibility is essential for all users. Section 508 (the ADA of the Internet) has been around for a long time. UDL is making strides in course design. Technology is improving... Still this information may be new to many. Watch and imagine you were dependent on technology to read online.

When Eddie was 20 years old, she suffered from the devastating effects of severe hair loss due to over processing her hair and an allergic reaction to a toxic chemical in a product. After many years of undergoing treatments to grow her hair back and purchasing every product that claimed it would do the same, Eddie decided to do the research and create her own product line. In 2007, Sweet Nature by Eddie was born.
Sweet Nature by Eddie is made with moisturizing butters, natural carrier oils, and herbs that have been proven to treat alopecia, psoriasis, acute dermatitis, and dandruff, as well as block DHT, nourish the scalp, combat hair loss and stimulate the follicles for longer, stronger, healthier hair!

text: Made in America: Builders Create Their Own Stimulus PlanThe American Dream is to have both a home and a job. Builders across the country would like to help create both.By Claire Easley A "Made in America" label can mean anything from assembly in the U.S. from parts produced overseas to a product that, stem to stern, was churned out on U.S. soil. And while new homes are indisputably American-made, they generally fall into the former category. But as high unemployment rates continue to plague the nation, a growing group of builders across the country has decided to take a closer look at where the building products they use are made and bring those purchases back home.This week, Corey Condron, owner of Spokane, Wash.-based Condron Homes, broke ground on the first home to be built under his new business model: houses built with 100%American-made products—or at least as close to that goal as humanly possible."Our cabinets are made by a local company here," Condron tell Builder. "All of their lumber, parts, hinges, everything is American made—everything but the little plastic clips for the shelves. So we went and asked them if it was possible to get American-made clips. It was. We're trying to go down to the smallest detail of the product to get it all American made."The plan started out as a one-home project to raise awareness of how building with American-made products can benefit the local and national economies, but the builder has since decided to commit to building all of its homes from 100% U.S.-made materials, from about 80% previously. "We feel it's the right thing to do," he says.And it's certainly sparked attention. At the project's groundbreaking on Monday, Condron says two local media channels showed up to cover the event. Since then, he's gotten phone calls and emails from community members expressing appreciation and support. "People we don't even know are going out of their way to say, 'Fantastic idea, great job, go America!'" he says.Over the last 10 years, Condron Homes has averaged about one hundred homes per year, ranging from 1,300 square feet to 3,000 square feet and priced between $165,000 and $375,000. He estimates using all American-made products will add about 1% to his construction costs, an amount he plans to absorb rather than pass on to buyers.The trend toward promoting American-made products in new homes attracted international attention last year when ABC News did a story on Anders Lewendal, a Bozeman, Mont.-based economist-turned-builder, who began working on his first Made in America house last year. Lewendal analyzed reports from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and determined that if, in a "normal" building year, every builder in the country increased the number of U.S.-made materials used in new homes by 5%, it would create more than 200,000 jobs across the country. That estimate was later confirmed by economists at The Boston Consulting Group.Lewendal says that his all-American home was meant to raise awareness not only among home builders and home buyers, but also the national community at large. If all American consumers switched 5% of their purchases to American-made products, he projects the number of U.S. jobs it would create would swell into the millions. He and other builders also point to the environmental benefits of buying closer to home, such as less fuel spent on transportation.Lewendal's project inspired Tarek Saad, owner of Oklahoma City-based CedarLand Homes, to take up the cause as well. While Saad says he's somewhat limited by what is available to him locally and by the constraints of his target market—cost-conscious first-time home buyers—he has been able to boost the amount of American-made materials included in his homes to about 55%, from 40% previously, with the hope of eventually getting to 90% or 100%."We're continually meeting with our sales reps, pushing them to find more leads on American manufacturers that can keep their product at a competitive rate with pricing," he says.Saad estimates that the change has increased his homes' prices by between $1,500 and $2,000 per home, which has proven to be more of an obstacle for the youngest buyers than for older ones who, in Saad's market, have shown more interest in the homes' American-made aspect."The really young ones, if they're between 24 and 30, they all say, 'Oh, that's great.' But you can tell they're mostly focused on the price," Saad tells Builder. "The ones we get a better response from are in their 30s to late 40s. They like it and they're willing to spend that extra money. And the ones that really demand it and that we get calls from are the boomer crowd, those in their 50s and above. They want American-made and they'll pay the extra price for that."Beyond price, there are a few other challenges as well, Saad says. "Granite countertops—everybody wants to have granite, but nobody makes that here. … We're trying to switch to made-made products, such as Corian, but everybody demands granite."But Saad is determined to stick with it, citing both the state of the economy and his belief that American-made products are of a higher quality.On the other end of the pricing spectrum, Tyler, Texas-based Bayless Custom Homes, is also working on its first all-American-made house. That builder typically builds 10 homes per year, priced between $500,000 and $800,000 for homes upwards of 3,500 square feet. In the past, Bayless homes have been made up of about 40% of American-made materials, estimates Gary Bayless, the company's president. But from here on out, they're aiming for 100%.While Bayless says he has run into challenges finding all-American lumber and ensuring that materials are completely American-made rather than just assembled in the U.S., he says the trick is ordering lumber far in advance and talking to suppliers to ensure they know what you're looking for.Condron echoes that advice, saying that once the expectation has been communicated it's a fairly smooth transition. "Just let your suppliers know that this is what you're doing, and let them do the work," he says. "There haven't been a whole lot of challenges. It's pretty easy."And according to Richard Elkman, president of PR firm Group Two, with Congress stuck in gridlock over a job creation bill, there's never been a better time to be touting home features that bring U.S. jobs home. To capitalize on that, his company recently launched the "All American Healthy Homes" program to help builders market homes made up of at least 60% U.S.-made materials. "This is a great opportunity for builders to build on all the political talk going on about the need for job creation," he says. "It's the perfect time."Claire Easley is a senior editor at Builder.Learn more about markets featured in this article: Spokane, WA, Oklahoma City, OK, Tyler, TX, Greenville, SC.

Video: 3-story apartment building evacuated due to fire
DENVER - Residents of Denver's Vantage Point Apartments were forced out of their apartments and into below freezing temperatures after a fire broke out just before 4:15 a.m.
All of the residents were able to make it out of their apartments safely on their own, according to Denver Fire Department Public Information Officer Mark Watson.
The Vantage Point Apartments, located at 1105 South Cherry St., consist of a garden level and two stories above the garden level.
The garden level was not damaged by the fire, Watson said, but the fire did damage the second level and third level. Watson said at least one unit on the second level and one unit on the third level was heavily damaged by the fire.
The entire building was evacuated as a precaution while firefighters made sure the fire was out, Watson said.
Two RTD buses were brought in as a form of temporary shelter for the evacuated residents.
The Salvation Army and the American Red Cross were also called to the scene to assist residents.
No injuries have been reported, according to Watson.
The fire is out, and the cause of the fire is under investigation.

Lilla Crawford Will Depart Annie in July; Orphans Taylor Richardson and Sadie Sink Graduate to Title Role
By Michael Gioia
Taylor Richardson, who currently plays orphan Duffy in the Broadway revival of Annie, and Sadie Sink, a standby in the production, will graduate to the title role in the Tony Award-nominated revival at the Palace Theatre. The duo will begin to share the role of Annie July 30.
Producers announced June 27 that original star Lilla Crawford will play her final performance July 28 and that Australian actor Anthony Warlow (Oliver Warbucks) has extended his contract with the production through Dec. 8.
"As we were preparing to cast the next Annie, I realized we had two wonderful candidates already in the orphanage. Both Taylor and Sadie are such unique young actresses, that I decided to let them share the role," said director James Lapine in a statement. "Also, I am thrilled to have the great Anthony Warlow remain as our Warbucks into December. He is one of the finest actors I have had the pleasure to work with."
The schedule of performances for Richardson and Sink as Annie will be announced at a later date. Each 11-year-old actress will play the role of Duffy when not on as Annie.
Watch Sink take Playbill Video backstage at the Palace.
In other casting news, Annie will welcome Gaby Bradbury (Pepper), Amaya Braganza (July) and Skye Alyssa Friedman (standby for the roles of Duffy, Pepper, July and Tessie) to the cast July 30. Current cast members Georgi James (Pepper), Madi Rae DiPietro (July), Junah Jang (Tessie) and Jaidyn Young (standby for Annie, Pepper, Duffy and July) will play their final performances July 28.
Also as of July 30, Tyrah Skye Odoms, currently playing the role of Kate, will play the role of Tessie; Brooklyn Shuck, currently a standby for the roles of Molly, Kate, Duffy, July and Tessie, will play the role of Kate; and Emily Rosenfeld will continue in the role of Molly.
As previously announced, Tony Award winner Faith Prince, who was last seen on Broadway as Ursula in The Little Mermaid, will step into the shoes of Miss Hannigan July 19, succeeding Emmy Award-winning "Glee" star Jane Lynch, who will play her final performance July 14.
The cast also includes Brynn O'Malley as Grace Farrell, Clarke Thorell as Rooster Hannigan and J. Elaine Marcos as Lily St. Regis.
The revival of Annie, directed by Lapine and choreographed by Tony Award winner Andy Blankenbuehler, opened on Broadway Nov. 8, 2012, at the Palace Theatre.
Annie features a Tony Award-winning book by Thomas Meehan. The original production earned seven Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Score for its 1977 debut starring Andrea McArdle in the title role. The production ran for 2,377 performances and has enjoyed numerous national tours and a 1997 Broadway revival, which went unrecorded.

"Anyone launching a bottle is investing his or her hopes and desires in the bottle being found," he says. "The cool thing about it, is it's not simply black and white: succeed or fail. Even if no one finds it now, there is always that possibility. That hope always exists that some one may find it a hundred years later."

The Texans and RB Ben Tate, a second-round pick from Auburn, have agreed on a contract, ESPN and The Houston Chronicle reported Thursday. ESPN reported the contract is for four years.

AFC South training-camp reports
In the third installment in our series of training-camp reports, we look at the AFC South teams.
Texans, Falcons hoping to get over hump
With Houston and Atlanta being the highest-rated teams not to make the playoffs last season, NFList examines how other recent "near-miss" clubs fared the following season.
Texans sign WR Dickerson
The Texans signed WR Dorin Dickerson, a seventh-round selection from Pittsburgh, on Wednesday.
Texans have solid reserve options at cornerback
One position where the Texans have accumulated solid depth is cornerback.
Okoye sheds weight; will sacks come?
A lighter Texans DT Amobi Okoye has "been tougher to handle" for the team's offense to handle in offseason workouts, head coach Gary Kubiak told Houston reporters at the end of the club's final minicamp.
Texans sign FB Griffith, two others
The Texans signed veteran TE Derek Fine, FB Justin Griffith and WR Bobby Williams on Wednesday.

Texans' young TEs getting work in Daniels' absence
While Texans TE Owen Daniels works his way back from a November knee injury, rookie Garrett Graham and second-year pro James Casey have received a lot of work in OTAs.
Reports: Texans, DT Mitchell agree on deal
The Texans and DT Earl Mitchell, a third-round pick from Arizona, have agreed on a contract, The Houston Chronicle and ESPN reported Wednesday.
McClain is out versus the Colts on Sunday.||||||| Houston's other inactives are linebacker Brooks Reed, cornerbacks Alan Ball and Stanford Routt, offensive linemen Antoine Caldwell, Andrew Gardner and Cody White.
The Panthers have announced they've made a move at defensive tackle, signing free agent Dwan Edwards and waiving last year's third-round draft pick Terrell McClain.||||||| Sunday's announcement to waive McClain comes as a surprise. He started 12 games last season as rookie after being selected 65th overall by the Panthers. He's the latest third-round draft pick to fail with the Panthers, joining former defensive tackles Corvey Irvin and Atiyyah Ellison and running back Eric Shelton as busts.
A person familiar with the situation says the Carolina Panthers are placing both starting rookie defensive tackles - McClain and Sione Fua - on injured reserve. The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because moves have not been announced.||||||| Fua and McClain were both third-round draft picks this year and have been starters since week one. However, Fua suffered a significant right hamstring strain prior to Sunday's game against Tampa Bay and didn't play. McClain sprained his left knee during the first half and did not return.
The Panthers have reached agreement with their last remaining draftee, third-round selection Terrell McClain. The team announced the deal Monday. McClain is a 6-foot-2, 297-pound defensive tackle out of South Florida who was the 65th overall pick in last spring's NFL draft. McClain was all-Big East first team selection his senior year. He is expected to report to camp immediately.||||||| New Panthers coach Ron Rivera said Sunday that McClain had been missing the chance to learn the team's system by holding out from Carolina's first two days of practice. The Panthers' top selection, No. 1 overall Cam Newton, signed a four-year, $22 million contract on Friday.

Sunderland have sacked Martin O'Neill... seriously? Yeah, this happened. a01 did a good job of talking through the WTFedness of this in the post-Swansea/Spurs match thread.
Meanwhile as far as this contest goes, a total of 0 people predicted that Martin O'Neill would get the sack. It's not like Southampton where they've been in the bottom three all season and you can be "yeah, sucks for Adkins, but I guess I understand." Sure Sunderland are in a relegation fight, but its far from over and even with a resurgent Southampton it's not like Villa or Reading are lighting the world on fire. What's to worry about? An outside chance that QPR does the miracle?
Anyway. So the score remains as un changed:
Cousin Drew: 18.5 points

DavidCourtney: 13.5
Inverted Fullback: 13.5

1:00pm (EST)
We have been mentioning the start of 4Q earnings season is upon us and although the real action doesn't start until next week, there have been some exciting plays this week.
We cover possible earnings trades each and every week in our Weekly Wrap and from time-to-time some of these trades make it to our Daily as official recommendations. We list possible call and put trades on the companies reporting and the research can be time consuming as there are a lot of factors to consider.
We often mention a 5%-10% move in a stock can often lead to 100+% returns with the right options. Stocks often make their biggest moves before, during, and after the announcements and these events happen 4 times a year. By using technical charts, past earnings announcements and reactions, we often get a good feel on where a stock is headed.
We profiled several trades this week including Sonic (SONC, $19.33, up $0.14) for Monday, Apollo Education Group (APOL, $31.03, up $0.27) and Container Store Group (TCS, $37.25, down $1.76) for Tuesday, and WD-40 (WDFC, $72.46, down $3.09) for Wednesday as they announced this morning.
All of these stocks made tremendous moves after reporting their numbers this week but we didn't feel comfortable trading them for various reasons. We had the direction nailed on 3 of the 4 and could have made some loose change but the one trade we profiled that we really liked was Family Dollar Stores (FDO, $61.76, down $4.58).
Shares are down 7% here were our comments Sunday night along with the chart work from the Weekly Wrap (quotes from prior Friday's close).
Family Dollar Stores (FDO, $66.41, up $0.35)
January 65 puts (FDO130118P00065000, $1.50, down $0.30)
Thoughts: Earnings have come in higher by 2 cents the past 2 quarters but the prior 2 were misses of a penny and 6 cents. The current forecast is for Family Dollar to report 69 cents a share on sales of $2.51 billion. We believe they come up short for the recently ended quarter.
FDO Chart
The company reported earnings of 68 cents a share versus estimates for 69 cents. Revenue also came in short at $2.5 billion as the suit-and-ties were looking $2.51 billion. Same-store-sales were down 2.8% for the recently ended quarter.
Shares have traded to a low of $60.97 and the decline was enough to power the January 65 puts (FDO130118P00065000, $3.40, up $2.15) to a 172% return.
The other trade we profiled for today was Alcoa (AA, $10.55, down $0.28) and here is what we said in our Weekly Wrap:
Alcoa (AA, $10.57, up $0.04)
January 11 calls (AA140118C00011000, $0.19, up $0.03)
January 10 puts (AA140118P00010000, $0.11, flat)
Thoughts: Shares have been on a roll since they were booted from the Dow and have moved from $8 to double-digits. The stock had been mired in a trading range for years but the recent breakout could continue with a strong quarter.
The January 11 calls traded over 1,800 contracts on Friday and the January 10 calls (AA140118C00010000, $0.67, up $0.01) traded nearly 3,200 contracts. Also of note, the January 10 puts traded over 2,500 contracts on Friday.
If our arm was twisted we would take a shot on the January 11 calls as a possible trade or even the February 11 calls (AA140222C00011000, $0.32, up $0.03) as a "safer" trade as they traded over 4,300 contracts on Friday.
AA Chart
We will likely sit on the sidelines with this one as well because of today's news the company will settle a bribery charge. Not the news a company wants Wall Street to hear before they confess their numbers.
Earnings season will carry on from here on out until mid-March before another quiet period. First quarter earnings start in early April.
The upcoming earnings season is expected to be one of the most important periods in recent years as Wall Street plans for 2014. We said volatility could get crazy this month and with tomorrow's Nonfarm Payrolls report on deck, we are getting close to the eye of the storm.
We expected a flat to choppy session and so far that is how the action is playing out as both the bulls and bears have tugged on the rope. One side could get muddy by the weekend as tomorrow should provide us with some good clues on the next near-term trend.
As we head to press, the Dow is down 18 points to 16,444 while the S&P 500 is lower by a point to 1,836. The Nasdaq is declining 7 points to 4,158 as the battleground at 4,150 comes back into play. The Russell 2000 is off 1 point to 1,158 and the S&P Volatility Index ($VIX, 12.88, down 0.01) is down a smidge.
We have another Profit Alert on a trade that is up 54% so let's go ring the register and take partial profits. Subscribers, check the Members Area for the updates and stay close to your email inboxes into the close in case we have additional Profit Alerts and/ or New Trades.

I have a problem about switching on my phone (Nokia x6 16gb). When i see NOKIA screen on my phone while im switching on, it's freezing and not keep going. What should i do? Should i make a hard reset or something else? And if i should choose hard reset, could you tell me how can i do it please?
Solved! Go to Solution.
23-02-2011 14:22
Before you hard reset, try starting the phone without the memory card and sim card and see what happens.
23-02-2011 14:27
23-02-2011 14:29
Sorry, there isn't a memory card on the X6. Just try it without the sim.
23-02-2011 14:32
23-02-2011 14:36
Looks like you have no option but to hard reset.
To hard reset, press and hold the green call button + red end call button and the camera capture button, then turn on the phone using the power button while holdling the other buttons until you see the Nokia handshake.
Nota that you will lose all your data in your phone unless you already have a backup of your phone.
23-02-2011 14:56
23-02-2011 14:58
Yes, back up your phone using Ovi Suite regularly to avoid losing any data. You can also sync some of your data with applications such as Microsoft Outlook but I think Ovi Suite is easier.
23-02-2011 15:19
23-02-2011 15:23
Ah yes, you have the songs on the mass storage but lost the license keys on the phone memory. You should contact Noia Care using the "Contact us" tab to the top right of this screen about that. They should be able to help yuou.
23-02-2011 15:28
23-02-2011 15:34
You are welcome. you have a nice day too.
07-12-2011 7:26
Hi There
Just want to conform something. I've done soft reset to my nokia x6 16gb but after resetting my web browser doesn't work so as Ovi store.How can I solve this.
After doing hard reset does the data in mass memory also gets deleted?
07-12-2011 12:52
You need to backup your data before the hard reset because it should wipe the mass storage as well.
02-03-2012 22:21
23-09-2012 20:15
I did hard reset of my Nokia X6 phone. Before resetting, I did backup of all the contentc on the phone with Nokia PC Suite. While doing backup it said that it will backup:
1. user files from phone memory
2. user files from mass memory
3. contacts
4. calendar
5. notes
6. messages
7. bookmarks
8. settings
and I have a problem with restoring those files back on. When the backup was over it said that all of the above was backuped, and now when I've restored it to the phone after hard reset I realised that my messages and settings are not restored.
24-09-2012 7:33
Though this should not happen normally, you may first try to Restore again. Else, have you also Synced your messages / contacts with the Nokia suite (apart from taking the back-up) ? If so, you may Drag-and-Drop them to the appropriate folders in the Phone (..at the bottom next to the Phone icon).
24-09-2012 16:51
12-02-2013 14:36
To hard reset, press and hold the green call button + red end call button and the camera capture button, then turn on the phone using the power button while holdling the other buttons until you see the Nokia handshake.
i used this trick but didn't work. so what i do?
12-02-2013 14:46
Its a bit tricky ..You may not get it RIGHT in the first attemt .. Give few more tries ...

This fall, some Hoosiers who need some help will be able to put more food on the table, thanks to deer hunters and the Indiana Department of Natural Resources Division of Law Enforcement's Sportsman's Benevolence Fund.
The fund makes it possible for hunters to donate venison through a participating butcher by paying the processing fee. To participate, a licensed deer hunter must legally harvest a deer, field dress it and deliver it to a participating butcher.
Royal Center Locker is participating in the Sportsman's Benevolence Fund, and is located at 104 N. Chicago St., Royal Center.
Hoosiers Feeding the Hungry, Feeding Indiana's Hungry (FisH) and the Dubois County Sportsmen's Club have developed a network of participating butcher shops throughout the state. The organizations also have coordinated with food banks serving every Indiana county to pick up and deliver the venison to soup kitchens. All venison is ground into burger and provided in 2-pound packages.
"Protein is the hardest commodity for the food banks to get," said Debra Treesh, founder of Hoosiers Feeding the Hungry. "Thanks to contributions by Indiana DNR Law Enforcement and deer hunters, we will be able to provide nutritious protein to hunger relief agencies in Indiana."
The fund received public funding during the 2013 legislative session through a bill presented by senators Mike Crider of Greenfield and Brent Steele of Bedford.

Audi Heritage department
As many owners of older Audi\'s will no doubt know, there seems to be a disconcerting amount of parts becoming NLA (no longer available)from Audi. Parts for cars like the URquattro, series 2 and 3 coupes and coupe quattro, 80/90 quattro\'s, 200\'s, 100\'s which were built in a period where Audi seems to have made some of it\'s best ever cars and also firmly put the Audi brand on the worldwide map, are now no longer available. These cars were built to last, which they are not going to be able to if service parts, engine parts and bodypanels aren\'t being produced anymore. My own car was made in 1995 and already some parts aren\'t obtainable anymore. Please sign this petition, so that we can try and get Audi to ease our pain.

A large crash involving six vehicles closed Interstate 10 at Interstate 17 in Phoenix on Friday.
"It's one of those chain reaction crashes that we're far too familiar with here in the Valley," said Carrick Cook with Arizona DPS. "It appears there were some injuries, nothing serious."
The freeway was shut down about 2:20 p.m. Traffic cameras showed the delay stretching past 51st Ave.
The freeway was reopened about 3:05 p.m.
There is no anticipated delay for Arizona Cardinals fans who will be heading to Glendale to watch a preseason game against the Oakland Raiders.

When the Milwaukee Brewers traded for Zack Greinke over the offseason, they hoped to add an ace for the regular season and the playoffs. The thinking was that, with Greinke and Yovani Gallardo, the Brewers could be a frightening team to face come October, were the team to advance.
Well, the Brewers advanced, and Greinke, so far, has underachieved. In two playoff starts, Greinke has allowed ten runs in 11 innings. That's not pitching up to normal Greinke standards. That's not even pitching up to normal Tomko standards.
And yet it hasn't mattered. The Brewers won Greinke's first playoff start because their lineup scored nine runs. And the Brewers won Greinke's second playoff start because their lineup scored nine runs. The second of these games took place on Sunday, with the Brewers knocking off the St. Louis Cardinals 9-6 to take a 1-0 lead in the NLCS.
Greinke got himself in trouble in the top of the first inning. He didn't look terrible, but he allowed a walk and two soft hits as the Cardinals went ahead 1-0. The run scored when Matt Holliday fisted a ground-ball single through the hole on the right side.
But the Cardinals didn't have that lead for long. Jaime García came out in the bottom half and, following an out, put together this four-batter sequence:
The big event, of course, was the homer, a two-run shot on a low fastball that Ryan Braun absolutely obliterated. The ball sailed out to left-center, and the Brewers went up 2-1.
It remained 2-1 into the top of the fourth, as each pitcher settled down. That's when Greinke un-settled down. A single and a walk put two on with one out, and David Freese cleared the bases when he blasted a hanging first-pitch curve out of the park the other way. The ball looked like a routine fly off the bat, but it continued to carry until it didn't have to carry any longer. With that swing, the Cardinals went up 4-2.
And they added another run in the top of the fifth, when Lance Berkman lined a two-out single to score Rafael Furcal from second. At that point, Greinke was looking entirely hittable, and the Miller Park atmosphere was subdued, relative to the usual Miller Park atmosphere.
Thankfully for them, and unthankfully for the Cardinals, it wasn't subdued much longer. In the bottom of the fifth, the Brewers exploded and turned this game on its head.
Jaime García wouldn't survive the frame. Jaime Garcia wouldn't record an out. He allowed a leadoff single, then a double down the left field line to put a pair of runners in scoring position. Ryan Braun lifted a double the other way to score the runners and narrow the deficit to one, and on the very next pitch, with the crowd alive, García threw Prince Fielder a first-pitch fastball down the heart of the plate that Fielder turned around.
It was, according to a preliminary measurement, the hardest-hit home run of the entire season, and it put the Brewers in front 6-5. It also spelled the end for Jaime García, after 4-plus innings. He walked three, and struck out three.
In came Octavio Dotel, and Dotel didn't make things a whole lot better. He immediately committed a two-base throwing error on a tapper back to the mound, and then he got locked in an eight-pitch battle with Yuniesky Betancourt that concluded with a home run to left-center. Betancourt flied a high hanging breaking ball that just kept going and going, much like Freese's homer the inning before.
That dinger made it 8-5 Milwaukee, and that's more or less where things remained. The Cardinals threatened in the seventh, putting men on the corners with nobody out for Albert Pujols, but Pujols grounded into a run-scoring double play that killed the rally dead. Then the Brewers got that run right back minutes later when Jonathan Lucroy singled home Betancourt from third.
Francisco Rodriguez handled the eighth with little problem, and then John Axford slammed the door in the ninth to seal the deal. That's how the Brewers won their first League Championship game since 1982.
The series resumes Monday night, with Edwin Jackson opposing Shaun Marcum for Game 2 at 8:05pm ET.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Dozens more whooping cough cases have been confirmed in Texas in the week since state officials issued a health alert.
The Texas Department of State Health Services reports 2,160 pertussis cases this year as of Tuesday. Spokesman Chris Van Deusen said Wednesday that whooping cough has been relatively widespread with no big area of concentration.
DSHS on Sept. 3 announced Texas is on track for more pertussis cases than any year since the 1950s and urged vaccinations. Nearly 2,000 cases were reported at the time of the health advisory.
Officials say the state's annual total for cases linked to the bacterial infection will likely top the recent high of 3,358 cases in 2009.
Two infants with whooping cough died this year in Texas, while six people died statewide in 2012.

Collarbones Announce New Album And Short Film
One part Adelaide and one part Sydney duo Collarbones have announced the release of their second full length album Die Young.
Though the duo's debut album Iconography was only released last year, Die Young was written close behind their first release, the with "the naive, vulnerable yearning at the heart of adolescent experience" in mind.
Accompanying the album will be a short film of the same name, which "follows a narrative of teen ghosts caught in a limbo, watching in on the preserved artefacts of their former lives." The film was made by Paris-based visual artist Michael Salerno, who travelled to Sweden to "photograph and video River Phoenix lookalikes in a freezing forest."
Die Young will be released on Friday September 28 via Two Bright Lakes and Remote Control. Check their Facebook for further details.

Thanks to Jeffo for hooking me up with this one! Deep black pour with a two finger caramel-colored head with decent retention and nice lacing. The nose is wonderfully dominated by the bourbon and oak. Getting some subtle dark chocolate and oats as well. The taste follows suit with the bourbon and oak the stars once again. Hints of espresso, vanilla, leather, dark chocolate, oats, leather, and booze round it out. The mouthfeel is slightly thick, really creamy, and smooth as silk with a nice warming bitter finish. Overall, this is an unbelievable offering from such a young brewery! Complex and flavorful and already in the same class with the big boys. Well done Rooie Dop!

Whoops. Long week, needed a BA something, sorry to the friends who would otherwise have gotten a pour if not for my self justified selfishness. Thanks Jeff. Poured at cellar temp into an Oerbier tulip. 04/03/13 date.
A - Creamy mocha head, 1/4", but very full. Dies to nice lacing, legs are ok but meet oatmeal stout expectations.
S - Oak, light roast, more malts. Not much caramel or vanilla from the bourbon barrel, but not any harsh aromas generally found in BA non-imperial stouts.
T - Oaky roasted malt, small amount of chocolate, wood again, little bit of dryness on a smooth finish. The heat approaches but never really hits anything I'm excess, which is nice. Further sips give some caramel flavors as the palate adjusts. The oak starts to stick as well.
M - Really good for a BA Oatmeal Stout. Medium body.
O - I like it and I'd drink it if it were in the US. Could use a little bit of time for the oak to smooth out as the bottle gets consumed, but other than that it is pretty good. Lighter stouts can be hard to give an appropriate barrel aging to, but I think these guys nailed it.

Sampled from a bottle at Cask in London. This one packs a huge amount of carbonation. Our pours had huge, tan heads yet there was still a great deal left in the mouthfeel. The aroma was sweet and syrupy with molasses and brown sugar. It smelled like malt extract. The flavor is a little tamer yet still rich, sweet and syrupy. Despite all of the above, it was a little on the thin side; perhaps partially due to the carbonation. An interesting beer but not one I could have often.

Got this one from the crew at Rooie Dop. Good times gents!
From a bottle into a snifter
Bottled 04 March 2013
Drunk right after the base beer
APPEARANCE: Pours out relatively black and yields a two finger, medium looking, tan head with very good retention. Black body with no real carbonation evident. A touch darker than the base beer. Head slowly fades to a full foam cap and sticky to the sides of the glass. A splotchy wisp remains and leaves some nice lacing down the glass. Good looking brew.
SMELL: Bourbon, oak and vanilla on the nose for sure. Caramel and some sweet cream, though the bourbon notes are more prevalent. Hints of dark chocolate and oats lay a good foundation under the enticing barrel aromas. Really good stuff.
TASTE: Bourbon and oak up front with some roasted flavors and light notes of oats as well. Sweetness through the middle with a big and lingering aftertaste of bourbon barrel, oak, caramel and sweet cream. Some bitter dark chocolate, oats, and roasted, burnt flavors accompany the barrel flavors, making this an extremely well balanced and delicious treat. Fantastic stuff.
PALATE: Medium body and medium levels of carbonation. Somewhat lighter on the palate, unfortunately, but creamy smooth for sure, goes down smooth and finishes a touch sticky. Nice enough, but too light for the style perhaps. Lighter than the base.
OVERALL: This turned out really, really well. The barrel took the lead a bit here, but the base beer was still able to put its stamp on the experience. Very nice balance here, and the look had improved as well. Only the lighter body, which can happen with barrel aging, keeps this from being the world class beer it otherwise is. Cheers fellas. Keep up the good work!

This is the very first Dutch beer which REALLY blew me away. Never had a better beer...
I got this beer at the Zeebra Extreme Beerfestival in Holland on may 4th 2013. Zeebra was held for the first time with lots of very very very great beers like this one.
This one was poured in a Zeebra glass, a small tasting glass. I did not really know what to expect from this beer...heard a lot of good thing about it from Mar02x. He was right!
A small head and some carbonation. Very nice smell which invites to drink this beer. Black as hell. This beer can compete with the other BA oatmeal stouts. Not as good as the Rarer DOS but boy oh boy, what a beer...
If you see this one...buy it!
Oh, not sure about the ABV, could be higher!

330ml bottle 9,6% Abv.
Served chilled in a wine glass.
Bottled: 04/03/2013
Consumed in July 2013, reviewed from notes.
Appearance: The beer is not quite as dark as I was expecting – it does appear black in the glass, however a backlight reveals a thick slice of deep red along the edge of the glass. A rough pour yields a large tan coloured head that displays exceptional retention and leaves some pretty good looking as it slowly recedes.
Smell: Wow, this smells delicious – the barrel aging has added fantastic notes sweet cream, caramel, oak and soft vanilla to the base beer notes of chocolate, cocoa powder and roasted malt. As the nose opens up a touch of leather becomes apparent.
Taste: There is more roasted malt in the flavour than the nose suggested, but it is well balanced by a fantastic barrel character. Notes include: Sweet cream, vanilla, caramel, oak, chocolate, roasted malt and a touch of dark fruitiness. There is a solid bitterness and a touch of dryness in the finish.
Mouthfeel: Initially the beer was a little over carbonated (medium-high level), however it settles down incredibly quickly and after only one or two swirls the level has been reduced to a low level and the texture has become quite creamy. The body is actually a little too light for the flavour at a medium level.
Overall: Rooie Dop BA Double Oatmeal Stout is a fantastic beer and I must thank Brabander for recommending it to me. I suspect that we will be seeing a lot more of this brewery in the future.

Bottle shared thanks to Mr MacWilliams, thanks Mac!
It pours a nice dark, dark brown color with a ring of tan to brown head, decent look that doesn't look thick at all for what I might have expected.
The smell to me seems like it is an aged beer, but to my knowledge it isn't aged, makes me wonder if it had a long time in the barrel. The smell is of musty malt, nice smoothed out bourbon, decent yeast presence with really no hops to speak of. The taste has a nice honey coated walnut to almond type dessert taste, a guy in the group said it almost had a baklava sort of quality to it. Definite chocolate malt, a dry finish for a stout. Decent medium feel that does seem to have a lingering nice taste despite the dryness.
Very nice beer, not totally amazing but very good and again is a testament to the barrel aged European beers that are all very solid and well made.

Report: Doctor Who bosses plan Christmas exit for Matt Smith
This year's Doctor Who Christmas special could be Matt Smith's last outing as the Time Lord, The Sun reports.
The publication said bosses already have an idea of who will replace Smith, with his contract due to expire in November.
On ITV's Jonathan Ross Show last week, Smith refused to commit to a Doctor Who future, stating "we will see what 2014 holds."
In a BBC statement last night, the broadcaster said: "even we don't know what's going to happen at Christmas."

The street runs behind the school. And a lot of students cross it to get home or to get to their parents' cars parked across the street.
The city's Traffic Safety Board is considering Jacobs' proposal at its meeting tomorrow morning.
Jacobs says his children went to Moore Middle School, so he's concerned about the students there today.
"If there's a ballgame going on, everybody's parked across the street," he said. "And if they run these balls out into the street, kids sometimes don't look. And that was the big concern, was their safety, of course."
Parents we talked to say they, too, are concerned, but they think 25 mph is a little too slow, that 30 mph is slow enough. Our speed zapper showed most drivers did stay under the current speed limit of 40 mph.

Lufkin may soon be a smoke-free zone. At Tuesday night's meeting, the Lufkin City Council will be discussing a proposed smoke-free ordinance that would ban smoking in any public places within the city limits.
The meeting will be held in the council chambers at Lufkin City Hall at 5 p.m.
An ordinance is already in place that bans smoking at city parks and restricts the practice to restaurants with designated public areas. The new ban would mean there would be no smoking at city or county facilities, hospitals, stores, or restaurants.
Keith Wright, Lufkin's deputy city manager, said city officials don't know the exact extent of the smoking ban at this point. For instance, city officials don't know whether the ban will extend to restricting people from smoking outside of public places as well.
Nacogdoches implemented a similar city-wide smoking ban on July 1, 2008. City council members in Nacogdoches passed an ordinance that banned smoking in any public building within the city limits, including offices, restaurants, and even bars. Nacogdoches residents are allowed to smoke outside of public buildings.
Deputy City Manager Keith Wright says the council has had several requests for an amended smoking ordinance.
"The request has been for the city to pass a smoke-free ordinance which would prevent or not allow smoking in any public places," Wright said.
There are currently 33 Texas cities, including Nacogdoches, Dallas and Houston that don't allow public smoking.
"If they come back and say no we don't want to move forward that'll be it for now," Wright said. "If they want to develop an ordinance then the staff will develop an ordinance."
Dr. Sid Roberts, medical director at the Cancer Center at Memorial Hospital in Lufkin, spearheaded the smoke-free Lufkin movement.
"I think a smoke-free Lufkin is good for Lufkin to be honest," Roberts said. "I'm interested in helping to make Lufkin a better place to live, to visit and to retire."
Roberts said 19 years ago the city passed a watered down smoking ordinance and it has done nothing to decrease the smoking rates or improve health.
"If we can model behavior for our kids and keep them from smoking our overall health is going to be greatly improved."
Terry Gardner co-manages Mom's Diner on Frank Street, which is one of the few smoking establishments in the city.
"I think it's probably a good thing for people's health," Gardner said. "Mom has always tried to give customers the option."
Gardner says she doesn't think a smoking ban in restaurants will negatively impact business.
"I think a lot of people enjoy coming here because they can smoke a cigarette," Gardner said. "There are people who don't come because people are smoking cigarettes here."
Roberts says for every dollar spent on tobacco products, there are about $3 or more that's spent on health care costs related to smoking.
In addition, the City Council will also:

Routes Sorted
L to R R to L Alpha
This route is located on the left hand side of 'Little Eiger'. The route is the 2nd bolted face from the leftmost side of the crag, located directly to the right of 'Bonehead'. Ths climbing can be eased by heading a little left and joining the crack at the 3rd bolt and then traversing back into the 4th/5th bolt. The moves between these bolts straight up will follow a small seam / pocket on dead vertical rock. Very enjoyable route with moves a little harder than they look from the ground up. Route ends at open cold shuts anchor. Be careful if toproping, but I think there is a bolt to back it up with.
6 bolts to a 3 bolt anchor with 2 links and 1 grooved, open hook (formerly only open hooks).
