Leading Stocks End Mostly Higher, But Volume Weak - Investors.com
Most of the top stocks from IBD's 33 sectors rose Monday as the major averages reversed higher. But volume among the leaders was well below average.
FleetCor Technologies (FLT), HomeAway (AWAY) and Proto Labs (PRLB) ended recent losing skids, while LinkedIn (LNKD) edged down. All closed near their intraday highs and remained above their key support lines.
FleetCor, which provides fuel cards to commercial vehicle fleets, rose 1.19 to 76.44. It's nearly 5% above a 73 buy point in a three-weeks-tight pattern, pushing the upper limits of its buy range.
The stock has held up well since triggering a sell signal Feb. 8, when it broke above an upper channel line connecting the highs following its August breakout. The move usually signals that the stock has peaked, but FleetCor is still just 2% off its high.
HomeAway posted a similar gain, rising 0.50, or about 2%, to 30.54, ending an eight-session skid. It's still extended beyond a 24.57 buy point, but it's getting support at the 10-week average.
HomeAway's profit doubled in the fourth quarter, building on gains of 10% and 27% in Q2 and Q3, respectively. Revenue growth has been steady, in a range of 20% to 23% over the past four quarters.
Meanwhile, Proto Labs climbed 0.57 to 46.82, ending a three-session losing streak that saw it briefly pierce its 10-week line. The producer of prototype parts for a wide range of industries is working on a new base. It is not yet clear what type of pattern will emerge.
On the downside, LinkedIn dipped 0.65 to 172.12.
The stock is in its first test of the 10-week line since its January breakout. It is not showing any sell signals.

"Game of Thrones" star Natalie Dormer will be guest starring on "Elementary."
By Drusilla Moorhouse, TODAY contributor
Move over, Joan Watson: The woman is coming to "Elementary."
"Game of Thrones" star Natalie Dormer has been cast as Irene Adler, Sherlock Holmes' presumed dead former lover, on the CBS detective drama. ?
Dormer makes her first appearance on May 9, the season's penultimate episode, and returns the following week in the two-hour finale.
"We're moving to the next chapter in our show -- and in?some?ways, to a previous chapter in Holmes' story," executive producer Rob Doherty said in a statement. His unique adaptation Arthur Conan Doyle's iconic mystery series -- especially changing Dr. Watson's gender -- sparked controversy before "Elementary's" successful premiere.?
"Irene Adler is perhaps the most pivotal relationship in Sherlock's life," added Doherty, "and I can't think of an actress better suited to the challenge than Natalie."
Dormer is developing a reputation for playing iconic characters: Before joining "Game of Thrones" as Margaery Tyrell, she lost her head on "The Tudors" as Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII's doomed second wife.
"Elementary" airs at 10 p.m. Thursdays on CBS.

Kerry meets Israeli leaders to push Mideast peace

JERUSALEM (AP) ? U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is looking to breathe new life into dormant Mideast peace talks in meetings Monday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other senior Israeli and Palestinian officials, amid talk of modifying a decade-old Arab plan that's long been greeted with skepticism by the Jewish state.
A day after meeting one-on-one with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Kerry spent the morning of Israel's Holocaust memorial day at Yad Vashem, laying down a red, white and blue wreath at the nation's official monument for the 6 million Jews murdered during World War II. He met privately Monday with Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and Israeli President Shimon Peres before a dinner with Netanyahu and other Israeli officials.
Kerry said he believed peace was possible.
"I wouldn't be back here for my multiple-whatever-umpteenth trip here as a senator and secretary, and for my third trip to the region as a secretary already," he told staff at the U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem. "I believe that if we can get on a track where people are working in good faith to address the bottom-line concerns, it is possible to be able to make progress and make peace."
Kerry is trying to end a 4?-year stalemate between the Israelis and Palestinians during which they've hardly negotiated peace at all. Making his third trip to the region in a period of two weeks, he has yet to outline any new plan but U.S. officials say he is exploring several ideas to try to corral both sides back into direct talks.
Palestinian and Arab officials have pointed to one idea in particular: An attempt to revive, with modifications, the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative that offered a comprehensive peace with Israel for a pullout from territories captured in the 1967 Mideast war.
The officials say Kerry is seeking greater Arab-Israeli security commitments and softer language on borders as part of the plan.
But key obstacles remain. Israel has not softened its objections and the Palestinians say they turned down a request from Kerry for the proposed changes.
Kerry "welcomes efforts to enhance the constructive role the Arab Peace Initiative can play moving forward," a senior State Department official said, while denying that he was proposing changes to the plan. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because of Kerry's orders not to brief reporters.
The Arab initiative, revolutionary when it was introduced by Saudi Arabia's then crown prince, King Abdullah, was later endorsed by the 22-member Arab League at a summit in Beirut. However, it was overshadowed by fierce Israeli-Palestinian fighting at the time and never won Israel's support. The Arab League re-endorsed the offer in 2007 and technically it remains in effect.
In the 1967 war, Israel took control of the West Bank, east Jerusalem, Gaza Strip, Sinai and Golan Heights. Israeli returned the Sinai to Egypt in 1982 in the framework of a peace treaty and pulled out of Gaza unilaterally in 2005. Israel annexed the Golan Heights in 1981 and peace talks with Syria over the territory have repeatedly failed.
Israeli-Palestinian peace talks have been deadlocked since late 2008, in large part over the issue of Israeli settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem. The Palestinians refuse to talk while Israel settles its population on the occupied territories where they want to establish their state. They have demanded that Israel accept the 1967 lines as the basis for a future Palestine, but Netanyahu rejects a return to the 1967 lines and calls for talks with no preconditions.
Abbas spokesman, Nabil Abu Rdeneh, said the Palestinian leader called for a solution based on the 1967 lines in his Sunday meeting with Kerry. He did not say whether the Arab peace initiative was discussed but confirmed Abbas was leaving Monday for talks on the plan at an Arab League meeting in Qatar.
There, a special committee will hold an "urgent meeting" on the subject Monday, said Mohammed Subeih, the Arab League's undersecretary for Palestinian affairs. Qatar's prime minister will chair it and the foreign ministers of key countries such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and the Palestinians will participate.
Subeih said the committee would form a delegation led by Arab League chief Nabil El-Araby and the Qatari prime minister to travel to Washington in the coming weeks with the goal of drawing a new roadmap to "end Israeli occupation."
The chief Palestinian negotiator, Saeb Erekat, said Kerry has been floating the Arab initiative as a possible way out of the deadlock.
Officials say Kerry has proposed two small changes to make it more palatable to Israel. He wants language saying the 1967 lines can be modified through mutual agreement and providing stronger security guarantees.
But Erekat said the plan could not be changed.
"Kerry asked us to change a few words in the Arab Peace Initiative but we refused," he told the Voice of Palestine radio station on Sunday.
Israeli officials refused to comment on the matter.
Israel has rejected a return to the 1967 lines for both security and spiritual reasons, arguing that the frontiers are indefensible and would mean a withdrawal from east Jerusalem, home to the city's holiest Jewish, Muslim and Christian religious sites. In the past, however, Netanyahu has described the peace initiative as a welcome sign of acceptance from the Arab world while refusing to accept its conditions.

Safety Eyes and Yarns for Amigurumi Restocked ... - saplanet originals
?
I have been really busy since returned from February vacation. The personal life and work life are competing aggressively against each other, to see who wins the race!
There has been a delay in shipment for the safety eyes, and we are still chasing for the short-shipment. I guess it?s just super busy for everyone in the first quarter of a new year.
Nonetheless, most of our safety eyes and yarns are restocked, but some eyes (oval 7mm) are still low stock in inventory?until the short-shipped items are received. We are also negotiating the possibility in stocking up triangle noses in more sizes (currently all triangle noses are out of stock!). That may take a while longer as the factory has to work out the schedule to accommodate to our request.
NEW PATTERNS
New designs are scheduled to be worked on from late April ? exciting new things are happening in my personal life, and it doesn?t involve a living thing (if that is what you are guessing).
CUSTOM (MADE-TO-ORDER) ORDERS ? Finished Products
Custom order is shelved indefinitely because of very heavy schedule. Finished products will be offered in Ready-Made segment, when?I am more adjusted to my new timetable.
PERSONAL LIFE ASPECT
Church: Pastor Rick Warren's son commits suicide
LAKE FOREST, Calif. (AP) ? The 27-year-old son of popular evangelical Pastor Rick Warren has committed suicide at his Southern California home, Warren's church and authorities said on Saturday.
Matthew Warren struggled with mental illness, deep depression and suicidal thoughts throughout his life, Saddleback Valley Community Church said in a statement. His body was found in his Mission Viejo home Friday night, said Allison O'Neal, a supervising deputy coroner for Orange County. She declined to release the cause and manner of death pending an autopsy of the young man.
"Despite the best health care available, this was an illness that was never fully controlled and the emotional pain resulted in his decision to take his life," the church statement said.
Rick Warren, the author of the multimillion-selling book "The Purpose Driven Life," said in an email to church staff that he and his wife had enjoyed a fun Friday evening with their son. But their son then returned home to take his life in "a momentary wave of despair."
Over the years, Matthew Warren had been treated by America's best doctors, had received counseling and medication and been the recipient of numerous prayers from others, his father said.
"I'll never forget how, many years ago, after another approach had failed to give relief, Matthew said 'Dad, I know I'm going to heaven. Why can't I just die and end this pain?'" Warren recalled.
Despite that, he said, his son lived for another decade, during which he often reached out to help others.
"You who watched Matthew grow up knew he was an incredibly kind, gentle, and compassionate man," Warren wrote. "He had a brilliant intellect and a gift for sensing who was most in pain or most uncomfortable in a room. He'd then make a bee-line to that person to engage and encourage them."
The elder Warren founded Saddleback Church in 1980, according to his biography on the church website, and over the years watched it grow to 20,000 members. He and his wife, Kay, began by holding Bible studies for people who weren't regular churchgoers.
Matthew Warren was the youngest of their three children.
As Saddleback grew over the years, it spread out from its Lake Forest headquarters, 65 miles southeast of Los Angeles, adding several other campuses and ministries around Southern California.
The church says it now offers more than 200 community ministries and support groups for parents, families, children, couples, prisoners, addicts, and people living with HIV, depression and other illnesses.
In 2008, the church sponsored a presidential forum with Barack Obama and John McCain. Obama and Republican nominee Mitt Romney were invited to a similar forum last fall, but Warren canceled it several days beforehand, saying the campaign had become too uncivil.
Warren was named the top newsmaker of the year for 2009 by the Religion Newswriters Association. He gained attention that year with his invocation at Obama's inauguration, as well as with comments he made in the aftermath of California's Proposition 8, which overturned gay marriage.

Dengue cases may be 4 times more common than known
LONDON (AP) ? There may be nearly four times as many people infected with the tropical disease dengue globally than was previously believed, according to a new study.
The World Health Organization has estimated there are about 50 million to 100 million cases of dengue, also known as "break-bone fever," every year. But new research puts the number at around 390 million ? though about two-thirds of those people have only mild illness and don't need medical attention. The study was published online Sunday in the journal Nature.
The data won't change how patients are handled but could prompt a speedier search for a vaccine for the mosquito-borne disease. The study was funded by the Wellcome Trust, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and others.
WHO said it wasn't surprised by the higher estimates. "We fully agree the spectrum of dengue is very wide and there was every chance we were missing cases," said Raman Velayudhan, the agency's global dengue coordinator. WHO was not involved in the new research.
"The new numbers are not out of the realm of what was expected," said Jeremy Farrar, director of the Oxford University Clinical Research Unit in Vietnam, one of the study authors. He said the figures came from analyzing more evidence than was used in the past and included other factors that influence dengue.
Dengue causes symptoms including fever and severe joint pains. The disease mostly affects people in Asia, Africa and Latin America though it has also recently popped up in parts of Western Europe and the U.S.
There are four kinds of dengue and catching it once doesn't ensure immunity; subsequent infections raise the risk of severe dengue and may include hemorrhaging. The death rate is usually below 1 percent if patients get treated quickly, but can rise to 10 percent if not.
Clarence Tam, an infectious diseases expert at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said more research was needed on the significance of the nearly 300 million people who have mild dengue.
"Whether these cases are an important source of dengue infection for others is not well known," he said. "But there is clearly more dengue in the world than we thought."
