It's a fundamental concept that supply and demand dictate costs. Your holiday turkey will cost more than last year's bird. CBS News reports, major farms have been hit by an outbreak of Aviary Flu.

The Saints & Giants played an epic game at the Superdome last Sunday. The combined total of 101 points was the 3rd highest in NFL history. This begs a question, Did they leave everything on the field, or is this the beginning of a renaissance?...

Temperatures in south Louisiana have been hitting triple digits. On a 100 degree day, the temperature inside your car can easily exceed 130 degrees, even reach 140. When you're about to get in & drive, I suggest you take a couple extra minutes.

Our friends in the Storm Team 3 Weather Lab tell us temperatures are likely to hit the 100 degree mark over the weekend. I'm not talking about the heat index!
