A couple of weeks ago, the interwebs were all a-Twitter about Ford's debut of the 2011 Explorer -- not at an auto show, not at a press event, but on Facebook. Unveiling such a massively popular ride in such a non-traditional way was an enormous gamble for Mulally & Co. Did it pan out as...Read More»

This video takes you up close for a preview of the new Explorer's cabin, highlighting some of its key features and...Read More»
Let's face it, I am not what one would term "cool" or "dope" or "wicked", in fact the only way I could use the word "hip" when describing me would be in the context of hip replacement surgery. So, safe to say, when Ford introduced its 2011 Ford Explorer I knew things were in a new...Read More»
Much ado has been made about the 2011 Ford Explorer's shift to a car-based platform and ditching of V-8 engines, but in the media storm, one small detail has slipped largely by: the death of the Explorer Sport Trac.

Ford unveiled the 2011 Explorer in cities across the country today, and I was at the Chicago event. It was just one of nine events across the country, but it was one of the key ones, due to the fact that the Explorer will be built in Chicago, alongside Ford's Taurus and Lincoln MKS. Ford is...Read More»
In some respects, the Ford Explorer nameplate is one lost in a particular time, when reality shows were fresh and new, Brittany Spears was just not that innocent, and gasoline prices were reliably under two dollars a gallon.

New models rarely mean price drops, but in the case of the 2011 Ford Explorer, that's exactly what the all-new model means: a $1,000 savings over the 2010 Explorer.

At the peak of the late-1990s sport utility craze, Ford sold almost half a million Explorers. But as car-based "crossovers" have stolen share from truck-based SUVs, that number has fallen. Still, the Explorer remains a vitally important vehicle for Ford, which says that 95 percent of all car buyers...Read More»

Ford has shown a knack for using social media over the past year or two, starting with the Fiesta Movement that precluded that car's launch.

Willi's house
A while ago, I was asked to do some different projects for my friend Willi. Here are some pictures from that project:
I did a faux finish on the wall with a dark brown and tan, then went over the top of it with a tan glaze to knock it back and add some dimension. Then we rearranged the furniture and brought back in her wall hangings.
This is the surround that I added to her fireplace. It was a flat wall previously. I taped off the area I wanted raised and used a faux stone plaster texture to give it some dimension. Then I added a custom raised stencil. After it dried I painted and antiqued it.
The next project I did was to paint some faux shutters to add around a window on the inside of the house. For these I used the basic white plastic shutters you can buy at a hardware store and painted them to look like real wood. I then painted the handle and then the hinges on canvas and cut them out to give them added dimension and hot glued them onto the shutter:
I wish I would have taken a picture of them installed, but forgot my camera!

text: The curry sauces I make are often pale instead of a dark rich colour as they appear in my cookbooks. For example, I just made David Thompson's "aromatic duck curry" and it turned out a very pale beige, almost no colour at all, and with no oil floating on top, instead of the rich dark brown in the photo. The flavour is good, it's just the appearance I'm concerned with. Any suggestions?

I would like to give a little background as to why i ended up praying for a new home..
My husband is working for western railways, mumbai. We were allotted staff quarter very near to railway track..so we were badly affected by noise pollution..Even to complete our conversation we had to take breaks & after the train passed we continued..Now imagine how we struggled to get sound sleep..My baby in my womb was also getting affected..My husband assured that soon we'll be shifted to other quarter in better location but nothing was working..We were blessed with our son in that same house.. of course he enjoyed watching trains from our house..but the sound was intolerable..that was the time i decided to pray for our new home..
We desparately wanted to buy a new home, but did'nt know where to buy as we had limited resources. I asked Lord to provide us with wisdom to search house in such a location where we can afford & it should be sufficient for us..The Lord answered my prayer and we were able to buy a New Home! Now, to meet all our ends , we both had to work. My Child was small but I could not afford to sit at home, I had to find a job..I prayed earnestly about this situation. God was faithful again. I was offered a good job i a small company.Now, I wanted caretaker for my child? Well, God blessed us with a caring maid to look after my child.My husband was transferred to another deparment, where he could do overtime and paid accordingly, his salary was doubled..
Also I was praying for fellowship for which God has directed me to this site..I'm able to pray & encourage others.While I do this, I found my relation with my husband, maid & colleagues in my office have changed for good.
Mt. 11:30 "For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
Love you Jesus!!

This truck driver is known as a "Huo Master (Kung Fu)" though we're not entirely sure where this move came from. He's sitting in his truck, on his phone when a thoughtless idiot on a scooter rolls up and just snatches the phone out of his hand. The guy drives off but it doesn't take long for the trucker to realize he's crossing paths with the same thief yet again. That's when the trucker hops out to deliver his own brand of street justice. He stands in the street, ready for a showdown, as the scooter approaches. That's when he leaps off the front of the ride the tackles the driver…with his butt. It's an odd move but there's no doubting that it's effective!

Twilight's First Official Photo and Why I'm Passing
by Kevin Powers
May 2, 2008
Source: Cinematical
I'm sure today feels like Christmas for many a teenage girl, since we now have the first official photo of the cast for author Stephenie Meyer's upcoming adaptation, Twilight. Isn't it simply dripping with adolescent enchantment and tension? Okay, maybe that's a little gruff. But since first writing about the film's progress and the overabundance of the term "sensation" and J.K. Rowling references that seem to follow Meyers and her books, I'm still not converted. In fact, I can safely say now that I'm really not into it at all. I can just hear the clank of earrings being taken off as the throngs gear up for a fight. Take a breath and hear me out.
I'm certainly not saying Meyers work is bad. As I mentioned before, I haven't actually read the series since it's flown under my twenty-something guy radar. But as the movie's exposure ramps up and with the incessant coverage from MTV, coupled with the film's supposed extreme loyalty to the source material, I'm becoming more attuned to how far outside my interests Twilight actually sits. Sure, the whole vampire undercurrent certainly makes pretty, battling high-schoolers a bit more interesting, but the central love story is just too damn sweet - a dark chocolate kind of sweet, but still too much for me. Angelic Robert Pattinson even wrote the tune, "Bella's Lullaby," himself. I'm sorry, but there goes my lunch. Plus, I have a feeling I'd just be rooting for the wicked Nomads anyway, which would surely leave me disappointed. Again, I haven't read the book, but I'm pretty sure the bad guys don't win in this story.
And here's the photo, courtesy of Cinematical, for you to feast your lovely eyes upon.
If the content weren't enough, there's borderline mob mentality when it comes to the material. MTV started Twilight Tuesdays to feed the ravenous masses. There's a site dedicated to Twilight moms. And I dare you to count the followers on all of the various MySpace and Facebook identities. The list of fandom goes on from there. I feel like I'm slowly being suffocated my Meyer's minions in what is becoming a real Twilight Zone. (Sorry, it was just too easy!)
Of course, I'll definitely check out the teaser trailer as it's slated to appear before the upcoming Speed Racer. But I have a feeling it won't entice me any further to see the actual film come December 12th. But for the sake of conversation, let's hear from GUYS who like the material and why? And no, don't you girls you just type in a dude's name in the comment box!

Many game publishers would be thrilled after selling 2.7 million copies of their latest title in a month, but Blizzard is not your average video game publisher. In their latest press release, Blizzard announced some impressive week one sales for their first Diablo III expansion pack, Reaper of Souls, with sales topping an incredible 2.7 million units. As a proud owner of this excellent expansion pack myself, I couldn't be happier, and I would argue that it is well-worth the somewhat steep asking price of $40. That being said, let's put on our business hats and see what kind of week one revenue the D3 division is staring at! Hit the link below for the details!
Earlier today, the fine folks from Blizzard's Diablo III office published a gaming decision that once enacted – set to go in effect on March 18th, 2014 – will finally put a long-discussed, and highly controversial aspect of the game to rest: the gold and real money auction house, which was established this past June, will be shutting its doors and closing its operation for good. Blizzard made their reasoning behind this decision pretty clear, stating "it ultimately undermines Diablo's core game play: kill monsters to get cool loot." Hit the link below for more details, more intriguing quotes from the men and women behind the Diablo curtain, as well as our own, in-house, slightly qualified thoughts!
Back on April 3rd, which seems like a long time ago (this is our 100th post, believe it or not!), we published an amazing trailer for Naught Dog's upcoming adventure game, "The Last of Us", which may look like a new Uncharted, but according to the developers, it's quite different. Not like that would be a bad thing, but you know what I mean. Looking ahead to the near future, "The Last of Us" will hit store shelves on June 14th, and will be an exclusive title for the PS3; sorry Xbox'ers. Like you needed more depressing news after Monday's debacle? Naughty Dog has released brand new demo discs to many of the latest news outlets, which means savory new, HD game play footage that you absolutely must-see. Did I mention the game play video is more than 15 minutes long? You're welcome.
This question will make our gamers out there in SQ Nation chuckle out loud; I know I did. There are just too many things that come to mind that you could argue. Profanity? The lack of maturity? Camping? "Your mom" jokes? Lag? I think I could come up with 100 different things that blow orifices about online gaming, and I think you could too. Although I mostly reach for the single player venues currently, via Demon's Souls and Diablo 3, I do jump into the StarCraft 2 arena pretty frequently, although I'm still learning. Gone are the days when I used to destroy people online in Red Alert, and don't even get me started about Goldeneye. Hit the link below for a hilarious take on one gamer's position on what the worst aspect about online gaming is. I think most of us will be able to relate!
I've been historically late to Blizzard games. In the late 90's, this guy was obsessed with anything on store shelves with a "Command & Conquer" label, so Diablo 1 & 2 never made it on to my hard drive. Once Diablo 3 launched, I decided to buck the trend and grab a digital copy online, only to realize that my laptop may not make it a worthwhile purchase. Bummer. Thankfully, Starcraft 2 is fucking amazing, so I'm pretty happy about that one. Regardless, I'll be picking up a copy of Diablo 3 for my PS3 the day or week it gets released, which to the best of my knowledge and Interweb research ability is still TBD. The footage looks awesome, and according to Blizzard, it "sizzles"! Hit the link below for the Diablo porn, and stay tuned to SQ for more Diablo 3 goodness!

Top 10 Things Boys Like
The Top Ten
Guys of top ten.com are really cheap. See, I'm a guy and detest porn and anybody watching it. I hate people talking about sex in public. It is annoying. It doesn't make you cool OK. I am not backward, I'm of this generation too but I don't understand the mentality of my own classmates. Why do consider these cheap, very cheap things to be cool and blah blah. Please, stop it already.. There are more beautiful aspects in the world than these good for nothing stuffs.
I may not be capable of loving a girl but let us face it. Some things can't be resisted. And my English teacher said all boys are maniacs when it comes to this. What a maroon! - aeromaxx777
All the 1-10 except cheese. Is this poll about BOYS or CHILDREN?
trueV 18 Comments
Guys LOVE football. If you asked a 100 guys if they liked football 95 out of 100 would say yes, they love football. Every Sunday somebody is ALWAYS talking about football. Get my point? Football is always drilled into boys minds.
Hi I'm a girl and I love watching football! It's so much fun. And I'm not even a tomboy!
I love basketball I can't play football unless it's just really throwing then I can I can throw pretty far
Should be #1. Why do guys like girls so much?V 28 Comments
I like Halo, Assassin's Creed and Destiny. I also liked Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 back on the wii. Wish they made more Mario games like those because they were awesome. The Legend Of Zelda is probably my favorite though because 1. Nostalgia because Twilight Princess was my first Wii game and 2. It is awesome.
I'm a girl, and I'm a Tomboy, and I love video games, and sport!
Sports awesome video games awesome as well as sports like football in real life is funnier than video game football but I agree
The Wii took it from # 4 to # 3
Should be #1.V 28 Comments

Mount Vernon's Rich History
Early in the 19th century, John Eager Howard and his heirs donated land north of city-center, and this highest point in Baltimore became the site of the first memorial to George Washington. The Washington Monument, located in what has come to be known as Mount Vernon Place, in honor of George Washington's estate in Virginia, is generally regarded as one of the most beautiful urban sites in the world.
Between 1800 and 1900, Mount Vernon was at the center of Baltimore's transformation from an insignificant harbor city to a place of prominence and wealth. This was the time when fortunes were made and great philanthropies bestowed. During the neighborhood's early history, wealthy residents including Henry and William Walters, Robert Garrett, Arunah S. Abell, and Theodore Marburg commissioned well-known architects such as Stanford White, John Russell Pope, Niernsee & Neilson, Dixon & Carson, Baldwin & Pennington, Wilson & Wilson, and Wyatt & Sperry to build the grand buildings and monuments that continue to grace our neighborhood today.
In addition to serving as home to prominent Baltimoreans, Mount Vernon was chosen as the site for major cultural institutions. The legacies of influential people such as George Peabody, Henry and William Walters, and Enoch Pratt continue on as the Peabody Conservatory, the Walters Art Museum, and the Enoch Pratt Free Library.
Mount Vernon also has the distinction of being home to the first memorial erected in the United States to honor our nation's first President and Commander-in-Chief, George Washington. In 1809, ten years after his death, the citizens of Baltimore petitioned the Maryland General Assembly for the right to raise the money to build the monument. Completed in 1829, this marble monument is one of the architectural glories of Baltimore's Mount Vernon neighborhood. For more details on the architecture of the monument, please click here.
Most of the original Mount Vernon buildings remain today, but their functions have changed. For example, the home of Henry and William Walters at 5 W. Mount Vernon Place now serves as offices for the Walters Art Museum; the Garrett-Jacobs Mansion is now the home of the Engineers Club; and the Jencks-Gladding house now holds the Asian art collection of the Walters Art Museum. The rejuvenation of the many historic and architecturally significant buildings has enabled Mount Vernon to remain not only a diverse residential neighborhood, but also a cultural center and restaurant district.
Take a stroll in Mount Vernon, the heart and soul of Baltimore, and discover its rich history! For those interested in taking a tour, click here.

Spring Cleaning our Monuments
August 13th, 2015, 4:00 pm
Every spring, and continuing through fall, MAS assumes its stewardship role in the crucial ongoing maintenance of our Adopt-A-Monument artworks—sprucing up over a dozen statues per year!
This month, we hired the City Wide Monuments Conservation crew to perform maintenance work on the iconic "Rocket Thrower" monument by Donald de Lue. This 45-foot-high Promethean figure conceived for the 1964 World's Fair, resides in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, celebrating America's exploration into space.
The monument, restored in 2013, by Steve Tatti, began to show areas of wax loss (blanching) which merited attention. Overseen by MAS, the conservation workers performed a specialized treatment that will keep the statue in perfect shape. "The kind of treatment performed reinforces the base layer of wax as a protective coating and underscores the need for annual maintenance of such outdoor sculpture", explained Phyllis Cohen, Director of the Adopt-A-Monument program.
With this monument and two others down, attention now turns to a dozen more artworks that will receive special treatment this year. Stay tuned as we help protect New York's heritage!

. He will receive the knife, a set of replacement blades, knife holster and a Havalon hat.
A Note From Darryl...
"I was lucky to harvest a 2014 Colorado cow moose. I had a buddy there to help field dress and pack it out. His fixed blade knife went dull before we were half way through skinning it, and yet to quarter and debone a huge animal. I was using the Baracuta Edge and had a Piranta Torch as a spare. I tossed him the Piranta Torch and we were able to completely field dress a moose using only one blade each.
He has since bought a Baracuta Edge for the upcoming season. Thank you Havalon!!"

PAWTUCKET, R.I. In his second outing with Triple-A Pawtucket since being demoted June 7, Daniel Bard pitched one inning Monday night against the Gwinnett Braves. He gave up one run on one hit and one walk with two strikeouts.
He threw 22 pitches, 11 for strikes, with just one first-pitch strike, to his fifth and final batter. Bard has an ERA of 18.00 with Pawtucket.
The PawSox lost to Gwinnett, 11-8.
Entering in the sixth inning with the PawSox trailing by five runs, Bard gave up a lead-off single to Jose Constanza, the Braves lead-off hitter, and a four-pitch walk to Luis Durango. A passed ball on the third pitch to Durango had already sent Constanza to second base. On a 2-1 pitch to Tyler Pastornicky, Constanza and Durango completed a double steal. Pastornicky grounded out to Pedro Ciriaco at short, scoring Constanza.
Bard got out of the inning with consecutive strikeouts. He retired Ernesto Mejia, swinging at an 85-mph slider, and Stefan Gartrell looking at an 83-mph slider.
Bards fastball velocity was in the 92-94 mph range.
I thought there were some real positive steps tonight, said manager Arnie Beyeler. I thought he did a nice job. To start with he got guys out. He got two big hitters out in the middle of the order. I thought some real positive steps. Had some plane to his ball. Was around the zone better. And I know they put some good work in, him and pitching coach Rich Sauveur out there, and he felt good coming in tonight and felt positive. so even though he was around the zone, still wasnt as consistent as I know he needs to be at the next level, but definitely positive steps from the last time out.
Bard also was pleased with his outing.
It took me two batters I think to really get locked in to an arm slot, Bard said. I was a little bit low, lower than I would like on those first couple hitters and you saw some balls running away from me. And then I make the adjustment and I think pitched pretty well to those last three guys. So the nice thing is I can focus on that and say I wasnt perfect but it doesnt matter. I was locked in, I got something good to walk away with those last three hitters.
He looked like he was thinking too much, said one scout in attendance. He usually looks so fluid. But he wasnt finishing his pitches.
He looked awful on the first two batters, and much better for the last three, said another. I think they did the right thing letting him pitch one inning and get some confidence back. I still think hes a seventh or eighth inning pitcher, nothing more, nothing less.
Bard had originally been scheduled to start the game. Instead, he was taken out of the starters role, as CSNNE.com was the first to report earlier Monday, with right-hander Billy Buckner making the start, with Bard scheduled to pitch one inning.
Bard has not given up on starting.
I just told them after that last one Friday night, I said that starting with the intention of going one inning just felt really strange, Bard said. I mean, it felt like a very manufactured situation, didnt feel like I was really part of a baseball game. So I just told them, I said Im all good with the short stints closer together. I think thats a good way to get back on track but I dont see, if were trying to go with more of a bullpen feel, which is kind of what they talked to me about when we get through this and then translate to starting, I said why dont we just do it out of the bullpen? So, I told them lets just do that. And they were OK with it, with the intent of doing this a few times and like I said, translating back to starting.
The current situation for Bard is still a work in process, with the next steps not entirely known.
I dont know, Beyeler said. I would assume hes going to throw another inning or two, probably Thursday (the PawSox have an off-day Wednesday). I would assume that but that hasnt been verified or passed along. That was kind of the plan going along the last weve heard.
Buckner took the loss, falling to 0-1 with an ERA of 11.42. He went 4 23 innings, giving up seven runs on nine hits and three walks with one strikeout and three home runs.
The PawSox outhit the Braves, 15-14. Every PawSox batter in the starting lineup had at least one hit except second baseman Tony Thomas.
Lars Anderson went 3-for-4 with three runs, scored, three RBI, one walk, a double, and a home run, falling a triple shy of the cycle. The solo shot in the eighth was his eighth home run of the season.
Alex Hassan went 3-for-5 with two RBI.

You were my rock, therapist, designer extraordinaire, and organizational genius. You made SO many people happy (we are still getting comments of how perfect and magical our wedding was).....Thank you again for all your support! It meant the world to me. All my best, Angela"

"It has been one week since my daughter worked with Cindy to plan her wedding and I knew that this event was incredibly exciting for her and her fiance and they were making it their own, Cindy helped them to bring it to fruition. She knew who to recommend for resources and how to help them plan for the most creative and beautiful wedding within their budget. They had unique touches that marked their wedding as truly their own and Cindy helped them create the vision. More importantly, as parents of the bride, my husband and I were amazed as were all of the bridal party at how calm, easy going, organized and delightful Cindy was to be with throughout the entire weekend event. Cindy contacted each of the providers- florist, band, chuppa builders, venue party planner and lighting people and made sure that everyone would be where they were supposed to be when they were supposed to be there. She felt like the anchoring member of our family. She kept us steady ( even when I lost the rings!) and laughed when we were just silly and having fun. My daughter's wedding was not only joyous, but beautiful in every possible way. We attribute much of the flawlessness of this event to her."
"Cindy is phenomenal!! I have been working with her for over a year now to create and plan my dream wedding. She has been easy to get in touch with and work with throughout the process. She provided suggestions and listened to all of my husbands and my wishes. My venue was very rigid, and Cindy worked with them as our advocate to save us money and convince them to bend in order to make sure we got what we wanted. She was very organized from the very first day we met through the wedding itself. She helped make sure everything happened on time and smoothly. When there were glitches- I, as the bride, had no idea. Cindy was honestly the best investment that my husband and I made. Thank you for everything Cindy! We love you!"

"Working with Cindy, Detaille Weddings and Events, was such an amazing experience. Cindy was very knowledgeable in the whole wedding planning process, was very active in her role as event planner and extremely friendly and helpful. She was always willing to help us out whenever we needed her, and offering her knowledge and experience. It was just a pleasure working with Cindy and a real joy getting to know her. I would highly recommend her to anyone who was thinking of getting an event planner. She truly is the best!"

"Cindy (owner of Detaille) was a gem to work with. She listened to all my requests and worries, gave her professional opinion when needed (first-time brides will need it) and went to bat for me when other vendors pushed back (which happened several times). On the day of my wedding, I felt completely confident that I could just relax and enjoy because I trusted Cindy 100% to "run the show" and handle whatever issues came up (and we had a few). She was detail oriented ,hence her company name, to a point where other vendors took notice and showed their appreciation for the way in which she organized the day. If I could relive my wedding (and I wish I could!) I would hire Cindy again and again. Ten-star rating!"
"We needed a planner to help coordinate our rehearsal as well as wedding day so we chose Detaille and worked closely with Cindy for the month leading up to our wedding day. Cindy was an absolute pleasure to work with! She was very responsive, a great listener and executed our vision beyond our expectations. A true professional with a lot of experience planning wedding which was critical for us since we were the first couple to get married at our venue. She was very organized, attentive, reliable and always provided good perspective when we needed her help making a decision. From start to finish, she stuck to our plan and helped make our wedding day the most magical day of our lives! More importantly, she put my mind at ease and just got it done - that in itself was extremely valuable to me."

"If you are looking to hire a coordinator for your wedding day, look no further than Cindy Sanchez Lark! She was hands down the best investment we made on our wedding day. Leading up to the wedding, Cindy worked with us to organized every little detail. She was always available and happy to help with any questions or concerns we had. On the day of the wedding, Cindy took care of the set up of the entire event, as well as managing the 10+ vendors we had. Every little detail (and we had A LOT) was executed beautifully. We were so confident in Cindy that we didn't have to worry about a thing and were able to truly enjoy our big day. She was so thoughtful and went out of her way to bring us food and drinks and take care of us in every way. There was even a behind the scenes issue with the caterer, but Cindy handled it so well that we were never even aware of it. Every member of our bridal party commented on how fabulous Cindy was. She is calm, reassuring, detail oriented, professional, and above all a total sweetheart. We couldn't imagine our wedding day without her!"

Cindy is very detail oriented and extremely easy to work with. Cindy was present at the wedding and reception to make sure everything went smoothly, and it did! She is awesome!She was a tremendous help in many ways. It is definitely worth having a wedding planner present and I highly recommend Cindy!"

"We highly recommend hiring Cindy to be your wedding coordinator/planner! We used her service as a "day-of-coordinator" for our CT wedding. We live in Brooklyn so we planned with her via telephone and email during the month prior to the big day. Our planning conversations were hugely important and set us up for success. We were very busy with work during the months prior to our wedding and she walked us through every detail in a comprehensive and well-organized manner. Her worksheets and planning tips helped us to ask the right questions of our other vendors and to set clear expectations for what we wanted. Cindy is both efficient and personable. She was incredibly responsive to our needs before and during the event. We were particularly impressed by the way she managed relationships with vendors, guests, and families, and how she addressed the inevitable wedding day wrinkles with ease and calm - without our guests noticing! In sum, all stages of the planning and event management were overwhelmingly positive experiences; we're so happy and thankful we worked with Cindy. Book her!"

"Choosing Cindy as our wedding planner was the best choice my fiance and I made. Cindy's expertise and experience is showcased by her ability to simplify things more than what we would've thought of! She's very responsive, amazingly organized, patient and most of all beyond sweet and talented. We couldn't have done it without her. Her assistance throughout this whole experience was exquisite! We are ecstatic with the work she put into this wedding and because of that we will forever be grateful for finding Cindy and turning what we once dreamed of to reality. You're AWESOME Cindy!"

Nov 3 (Reuters) - The S&P 500 and Nasdaq were marginally lower on Tuesday morning led by a decline in healthcare and consumer stocks, but a rally in oil stocks helped the Dow eke out a small gain.
Eight of the 10 major S&P sectors were lower, with the consumer staples sector down 1.1 percent and the healthcare sector down 0.8 percent.
A rally in healthcare and energy stocks on Monday had pushed the Nasdaq 100 to a 15-year high. All 10 S&P sectors had ended higher.
The energy sector was one of only two sectors to add to its gains on Tuesday. The sector was up 1.34 percent as oil prices recovered.
"This morning's action is natural, quiet consolidation. It's a digestion of yesterday's strength," said Andre Bakhos, managing director at Janlyn Capital in Bernardsville, New Jersey.
At 9:53 a.m. ET (1453 GMT), the Dow Jones industrial average was up 1.37 points, or 0.01 percent, at 17,830.13.
The S&P 500 was down 5.03 points, or 0.24 percent, at 2,099.02 and the Nasdaq Composite index was down 16.09 points, or 0.31 percent, at 5,111.06.
U.S. stocks are coming off their best monthly performance in four years in October.
Of the 352 S&P 500 companies that have reported third-quarter results so far, 71 percent have beaten profit estimates, compared with 63 percent in a typical quarter.
Strong results from blue-chips have helped lift sentiment. S&P 500 companies are now expected to report a 0.9 percent fall in profit, compared with the 4.9 percent drop forecast before the earnings season began, according to Thomson Reuters data.
AIG's shares fell 4.3 percent to $61 after the insurer's quarterly profit missed estimates by a wide margin. The stock was the biggest drag on the S&P 500.
Exxon was up 0.7 percent and Chevron 1.5 percent. Chevron gave the biggest boost to the Dow and both were the most influential on the S&P 500.
Agribusiness Archer Daniels Midland fell 8.3 percent to $42.44 after missing profit estimates and weighed the most on the consumer staples sector.
Kellogg slipped 3.4 percent to $68.24, while Sprint declined nearly 7 percent to $4.51, after both companies' quarterly sales missed estimates.
King Digital soared 14.2 percent to $17.75 after Activision Blizzard agreed to buy the "Candy Crush Saga" creator for $5.9 billion. Activision was down 2.1 percent. King's rival Zynga was up 3.3 percent.
Fitbit dropped 6.9 percent to $38 after the wearable fitness device maker agreed to lift lockup restrictions on over 2 million shares more than month before scheduled and announced a 21 million share offering.
Declining issues outnumbered advancing ones on the NYSE by 1,609 to 1,158. On the Nasdaq, 1,330 issues fell and 1,049 advanced.
The S&P 500 index showed six new 52-week highs and one new low, while the Nasdaq recorded 23 new highs and nine new lows. (Reporting by Abhiram Nandakumar in Bengaluru; Editing by Savio D'Souza)

it's an internet thing!

SSE, which is made up of Southern Electric, Swalec and Scottish Hydro, has announced that due to costs that were beyond its control, its average annual dual fuel energy bill would increase by £106 to £1,380 on 15 November. Now, consumer groups predict that other UK's other major energy suppliers will follow suit.
Citizens Advice chief executive Gillian Guy said: "This price rise will be a blow for stretched budgets."
"I hope other energy firms show an understanding of their customers' financial situation by not raising their prices this winter.
"Many households are facing a daily battle try to make their frozen incomes cover mounting energy, food and travel costs. Further increases will push people into poverty."
According to SSE, 8.2per cent was an average rise. A 7per cent increase will be applied to customers in central Scotland and in the North of England. However, customers in the South East of England would see the biggest increase by up to 9.7per cent.
Meanwhile, SSE's Will Morris said that they are sorry that they have to do this. He said: "We've done as much as we could to keep prices down, but the reality is that buying wholesale energy in global markets, delivering it to customers' homes, and government-imposed levies collected through bills - endorsed by all the major parties - all cost more than they did last year."
