WASHINGTON (AP) – American employers signaled their caution about a sluggish economy by slowing their pace of hiring in April after months of robust job growth.

Michael Drury is watching the current U.S. presidential season with a combination of professional detachment and an air of resignation.
Detachment, because part of his job as chief economist at Memphis-based McVean Trading & Investments is to keep abreast of what makes economies around the world tick. Part of that, of course, means at least some degree of focus on the man – or, possibly a few months from now, the woman – who sits astride the dominant global economy.

With consumers and businesses turning cautious, the U.S. struggled to grow in the first three months of a presidential election year that is shining the spotlight on the economy's fitful recovery.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The financial world is awaiting the Federal Reserve's response to a critical question: How stable are the world's economies and financial markets?

That's when the Fed raised its key rate from record lows to reflect an economy finally strong enough 6½ years after the Great Recession ended to withstand higher loan rates.
WASHINGTON (AP) – U.S. consumers bumped up their borrowing in January at the slowest rate pace in nearly three years, as outstanding revolving debt – such as credit cards – slipped from December.

Presidential campaigns and the security concerns that come with them aren't something that comes up a lot in terms of press coverage in this election cycle.But it has come up leading into what will be a busy weekend locally and in the region among the presidential contenders.Republican candidate Ben Carson was scheduled to attend both Sunday services at Highpoint Church in East Memphis.Leaders of the church emphasized it was a non-political event in which Carson would talk about his personal story and his faith but would not make a political pitch.This is not unprecedented.In 2008, Republican contender Mike Huckabee attended an ordination ceremony for two ministers at Bellevue Baptist Church in Cordova – an event that was billed also as a nonpolitical event.And so the reporters who came to cover the candidate who would win the Tennessee Republican primary days later watched not from the sanctuary but from the room where Bellevue's video and audio feeds are coordinated. Huckabee talked politics with reporters after the service as he made a run for some barbecue to-go from Corky's on his way to another city on the campaign trail.
The five largest Memphis-based banks all got bigger over the past year. That's according to new figures from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis covering the fourth quarter, which show continued improvement among local banks in a variety of key metrics like loans and loan-loss reserves.

And ESPN commentator and retired NBA player Jalen Rose draws a distinction between the way players in Major League Baseball and players in "black sports" are treated by their teams.

Munford! A winning Powerball ticket for the largest jackpot ever was sold in Munford and that warrants a rare exclamation mark.Possibly two when you consider that small towns are supposed to be places where it is nearly impossible to keep a secret – at least from the other folks in the town.The fact that it was sold at Naifeh's, a long-standing Tipton County business institution adds to the story.The person who bought the ticket in Munford holds one of three winning tickets which comes out to about $582 million for that ticket.That is roughly the size of the city of Memphis operating budget.There was a similar mystery underway Thursday in Dyersburg where someone bought a Powerball ticket worth a paltry $2 million. Probably worth an exclamation mark if I wasn't over the limit and already feeling the unspoken disdain of my reporting brethren who are judging me harshly as you read this.

A moment of silence for Midtown Kroger if you will, now that you've been through the New Year's mountain of emails etc.Where to shop with the Midtown supermarket landmark now closed was the water-cooler question of the day for those who have had a love-hate relationship with the store.If you are a creature of habit and your habit is that store, you've known it by many names – Seesel's, Seesel's by Albertson, Schnucks and Kroger.And as many bad names as you called its original parking lot, you came up with some new ones for the God-forsaken parking lot and its marked pedestrian walkway to hell built on the elegant ghost of the old Trousseau shop.The store's interior wasn't quite "Double Indemnity" tiny – think Barbara Stanwyck in cat sunglasses talking furtively over doll-like shelves to Fred MacMurray before "My Three Sons."But the "super" in its version of a supermarket was the 1950s black-and-white television Superman.When Pau Gasol – the original Gasol -- was still playing for the Grizzlies, I ran across him on a late-night grocery excursion able to shop two aisles at once peering over his own aisle to the one I was on, suddenly having that feeling that someone was watching me.An informal and decidedly unscientific sampling Monday found the alternative sites were the Kroger at Poplar and Cleveland, Cash Saver on Madison, West Memphis WalMart (a go to destination for left of Midtowners, otherwise known as Downtowners) and "I'm still waiting for Trader Joe's."The old Midtown Kroger has closed as the new and bigger Kroger is starting to take shape behind chain link fences with tarps and other construction barriers just west of the original store but still within earshot of the Idlewild Presbyterian Church carillon.
Only a few weeks after the Federal Reserve decided to raise interest rates after keeping them near zero for years, a key Fed official will be in Memphis later this month to talk about the economy and what lies ahead.

The Conference Board's consumer confidence index rose to 96.5 this month from November's revised 92.6.
The stock market took investors for a wild ride in 2015, but in the end it was a trip to nowhere.
Despite veering between record highs and the steepest dive in four years, the stock market is on track to end the year essentially flat. That means if you invested in a fund that tracks the Standard & Poor's 500 index, you have little to show for the past 12 months.
WASHINGTON (AP) – Steady job growth, low mortgage rates and tight inventories helped fuel rising U.S. home prices in October.

Analysts, mutual-fund managers and other forecasters are telling investors to expect lower returns from stocks and bonds in 2016 than in past years. They're also predicting more severe swings in prices. Remember that 10 percent drop for stocks that freaked investors out in August? It likely won't take another four years for the next one.

Over the last 13 months, or 262 trading days, the S&P 500 has produced a 0% return while the Barclays total bond market index has produced an enviable 1%.

Over the last several weeks I have received several calls and emails from clients, fatigued by sideways markets that want to "do something" about it. This emotion, while understandable, can often lead to mistakes. One of our roles as investment advisors is to help clients widen their field of view and mitigate the risk of trading mistakes. Over the past twelve months the markets have produced some distinct winners and losers. US stocks +.91% vs. international stocks -7%. US internet and biotech stocks +20% vs. US energy stocks -20%.

Clearly large cap US growth themes like biotech and technology make money while US value themes like Europe, emerging markets and commodities do not.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. employers advertised fewer jobs in October, though overall hiring picked up and quits rose slightly, adding to evidence the job market is slowly improving.

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. consumers borrowed more heavily for auto and student loans in October, taking out debt that helps them find jobs and commute to work.
The Federal Reserve said Monday that consumer borrowing rose $16 billion in October to $3.5 trillion. But the pace of borrowing decelerated sharply from the $28.5 billion increase in September.
WASHINGTON (AP) – A 5-year, $305-billion bill to address the nation's aging and congested transportation systems was signed into law Friday by President Barack Obama, who said it will put Americans to work and provide states with the federal help they need to commit to long-term projects.
WASHINGTON (AP) – If the Federal Reserve needed any final evidence that the economy is ready for higher interest rates, it got it on Friday.
A solid November job gain of 211,000 showed that despite weak overseas growth and struggling U.S. factories, the U.S. economy appears healthy enough to withstand a Fed hike from record-low rates later this month.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Is the U.S. job market finally healthy enough to lift Americans' long-stagnant pay?
Some tantalizing signs have suggested that wages are beginning to pick up after barely moving in the 6½ years since the Great Recession officially ended. On Friday, the government's jobs report for November should offer some clues about whether the modest pay gains will continue.
Their comments don't move markets the way Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen can.
But regional leaders of the Fed system, including its Memphis branch regional executive Douglas Scarboro, are reinforcing the idea that the Fed board probably will raise interest rates for the first time in seven years at its Dec. 15-16 session.

"The agreement with Tottenham is total," Salvo is quoted as saying by Las Provincias.

Comments about BCBGMAXAZRIAGROUP Pyramid-Studded Lattice Bar Belt:
This belt is very glam and beautiful in the front as pictured, so I decided to purchase online to wear when dressed up. However, the back reminds me of my workout belt that I wear when running to hold me phone....awful to say the least. Why would anyone want to wear something so beautiful on a dressy occasion that is so poorly made in the back....2 thumbs down. There is no way to disguise how ugly it is in the back...yuck! It's going back.

I've seen a few fics like this, with the whole 'character talks to the author' sort of thing and it does not work in fanfic as well as it does in say, a game or comic book.
The old She-Hulk comic use to talk to the author and the reader often, it was really funny, but it would take alot of work to pull such a plot off in written form only...
And given how long pokemon has been around many of the best 'odd things that don't make sense in the game' jokes have already been done...
Vampiric pokémorphs and the Nurse Joy who must love them.

This year, automakers will return to the Super Bowl in full force, hoping to make big impressions with their cars.
Mercedes-Benz has enlisted supermodel Kate Upton and Lincoln has employed comedian Jimmy Fallon, while Kia appears to be dumping sex appeal for family fun.
Many automakers are trying to build buzz through teaser ads and social media campaigns.
Here's a rundown of what we know so far.
AUDI: For the first time in Audi's history, the brand will let the public select which Super Bowl spot they'd like to see run during the big game.
The German luxury brand, returning to the Super Bowl for the sixth consecutive year, has three versions of its 60-second ad.
CHRYSLER: Chrysler has purchased airtime, but has declined to reveal any details about the amount of time or the number of commercials it is planning.
Chrysler is coming off of back-to-back blockbuster ads. In 2011, Chrysler made its mark with the first automaker to air a two-minute Super Bowl featuring Eminem and the "Imported from Detroit," tagline and in 2012 the automaker created a political stir with Clint Eastwood in "Halftime in America."
CARS.COM: This online car shopping site wants to capture a larger number of car purchasers by convincing people that it offers a "no drama" way buying a car. It has released a teaser ad that has plenty of drama.
FIAT: Like last year, there is a good chance that Fiat will again employ a combination of humor and sex appeal in a 30-second spot. One option under consideration for the Fiat 500 Abarth Cabrio shows a woman on a beach with a black scorpion crawling on her back. Fiat has other options as well, an ad titled "Sisters" and one titled "Date."
FORD & LINCOLN: Ford hasn't advertised in the Super Bowl for several years and won't be there this year either. But Lincoln is a different story.
Jim Farley, Ford's executive vice president of global marketing, doesn't believe that the Super Bowl is a wise place for mainstream, established brands to spend their money.
Lincoln will be in the Super Bowl for the first time ever with a 60-second spot crafted by comedian Jimmy Fallon.
GENERAL MOTORS: GM, historically one of the Super Bowl's biggest spenders, decided last spring to skip this year's big game, confusing analysts who thought it would be a great opportunity to promote the new Chevrolet Corvette or the new Chevrolet Silverado.
HYUNDAI: In its sixth consecutive year as a Super Bowl advertiser, Hyundai said it has five game-day ads, including four all-new spots, planned.
The Korean automaker has again secured a 60-second commercial just before the kickoff. Two additional 30-second commercials will during the game and two will air during the pregame show.
Hyundai's commercials will highlight its Santa Fe crossover, Sonata Turbo full-size sedan and Genesis R-Spec luxury sedan.
KIA: Kia has purchased a 30second and a 60-second spot.
At least one of the spots will feature the redesigned Sorento crossover.
According to Kia, its Super Bowl commercial "will present an answer to an age-old question that has left generations of parents stuttering and searching carefully for words to help them escape an awkward yet truthful situation."
TOYOTA: Actress Kaley Cuoco, star of CBS show The Big Bang Theory, will be featured in Toyota's commercial for its RAV4 crossover.

text: I am using Nokia N8 and I have just installed Symbian Anna on it via Nokia Software Updater. I successfully installed Anna without any problem, but now I have just a black and white screen and I am not able to see any other color. Only when I change the theme, then also only the color of borders get change and rest of the screen remains black and white. I tried reinstalling the Ovi Store but now also the theme is same as it was. All the new icons set and even all the apps are in color. I dont think it is normal. One more thing I want to add that, there is no background image to theme. I have already tried with updating supplementary Anna updates then rebooting my Nokia N8, but that didnt worked for me. So, if you have any other solution, that I can try, then please suggest me.

How to Give a 3-Year-Old a PedicureJessie Knadler
Only an idiot would attempt to give a 3-year-old a pedicure.
I say this as someone who does it all the time. And time and time again, this exercise in parental dysfunction morphs into one of those "If you give a pig a pancake" type fiascos in which the objective becomes increasingly maddening, messy and involved the longer it goes on.
Still. I keep doing it. I don't know why. I guess I'm one of those dreamers who just wants my precious little angel to have shiny, pretty toe nails. Is that so wrong? I keep holding out hope that one day I'll be able to paint her feet without smudging, streaking or whimpering (June has been known to whine, too).
Admittedly, my method is still in the beta phase of development. Heck, it's really not much of a method, but a hodge podge of maneuvers and ploys to get her to sit still for 20 minutes. Impossible, in other words.
Let the Child Select His or Her Own Color 1 of 8
This makes the child feel important, like they have some control over their appearance. (Ha! Ha! Yeah, right! It's Holly Hobbie town over here in Virginia!)
I gave June a choice between purple and....purple.
What Do You Know? 2 of 8
She chose purple and....purple!
Buy Decent Polish 3 of 8
My favorite nail polish is OPI. I like the way it goes on without streaking or dribbling. But plenty of drug store brands are great too.
Do it Outside, Preferably on the Front Porch 4 of 8
Only a crazy person -- **cough, cough, me, cough, cough** -- would attempt to paint a toddler's toes indoors. I'll never get that red streak out of my couch! IDIOT!
Come Armed with Books — a Lot of Them 5 of 8
You have to engage in a little toddler math here. It takes roughly 20 minutes for polish to fully dry. June plows through books at a rate of about 1 per minute. To keep her occupied (that is, still) for a full 20 minutes requires at least 20-25 books.
Or Forget the Books 6 of 8
...and bust out the iPad, i.e. mommy's instant placation device!
Strongly Discourage Ankle Crossing 7 of 8
This is the part where you'll have to physically hold the child's feet as she plays the iPad waiting for the color to dry . Otherwise, she will forget about the lengths you're trying to go to to give her pretty toes and try to cross her ankles; instant smudging. Whimpering ensues. It's here June asks me why I'm crying.
Prepare to be Disappointed by the Results 8 of 8
This is my lesson in how to give a 3 year old a pedicure. I made no claims about it actually looking good. Maybe someday...

In Book 1, Nas left her spoiled, rich girl life to find peace and forgiveness at River's Edge, a rehab for wayward immortals. Her life revolves around hard labor, lessons, and Reyn, a sexy immortal whose dark past prevents her from loving him. But just as Nas is getting used to River's Edge, her family's ties to dark magick force her to leave.
Nas returns her old life and friends, even forgiving her cold-hearted best friend Incy. Then Nas discovers that Incy has been stealing power from humans and immortals, killing them in the process. Incy, desperate for Nas's power, comes after her, and for the second time in her life, Nas thinks she's going to die. Fortunately, Reyn, and her mentors from River's Edge show up in time to save her. But even though Nas is safe for now, an epic battle between good and dark immortals is still coming--it's just a matter of when. (You'll find out in Book 3!)

How to Claim Some 'Me Time'
Say it loud, and say it proud: Me, me, me! OK, maybe you don't want to shout it, but it is that important.
Fitting in time for yourself is essential to do your healthy habits. Take charge of your health and happiness, and you'll lower your stress, become more productive, and have more energy.
Recommended Related to Mind, Body, Spirit
By Kira Goldenberg Life can easily get overwhelming. For one thing, we Americans tend to work hundreds more hours per year than people from other Western countries. Plus, it's flu season right now. And that laundry won't wash itself. One way to deal with it all is to broaden and shift your perspective -- and that's where Japanese psychology comes in. Its two main concepts -- Morita and Naikan -- are ongoing practices aimed at helping you be your best version of yourself through cultivating gratefulness...
Read the Be Your Best Self article > >
You may think "it's all about me" is selfish. But consider this: Other people benefit from your "me time," too. Do things that feed you mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and you'll bring greater patience and a more positive attitude to your relationships. You'll become a better parent, spouse, and a more effective team player at work.
Book It
Take a page from your calendar, literally. Every week, look at your calendar and book some me time.
Can't find an hour to devote to yourself? Even 5-15 minutes can work, if you stick to it.
Don't use the time to fold laundry or catch up on email. It may even seem more stressful at first to leave things undone, but you'll have more energy if you take a little time off.
Where to find the time?
- Take advantage of the kids' reading or nap time.
- Get up 10 minutes earlier.
- Ask your kids (and spouse) to do the dishes.
- Turn off the smartphone.
- Claim a Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon for yourself, even if that means adjusting your family's schedule.
Gimme 5
If 5 minutes is all you've got, you'd be surprised at how much you can make it count.
- Just breathe. Really focus on taking deep breaths. Your mind may wander -- that's OK, just gently lead it back from thinking about everything that's on your to-do list.
- Stretch. Get up from your desk and energize your muscles.
- Do nothing. Sit quietly. Resist the urge to jump up and clear the table or pick up the kids' toys. Let your mind and body rest.
A Few Minutes More
At least once a month, carve out a little more time for yourself -- say 30 minutes to an hour. Get a pedicure. Or a facial. Go somewhere you've never been (a certain museum or a walking trail, perhaps). Write down your dreams and goals in a journal.

Get Ready ~ New Order
1 Recommendation
Three's recommendation
The collision between British musicians and Black American music has produced an ever growing treasury of limb-pulsing, butt-shaking, hart-swelling music, which--thankfully is often the result of soul-brothers and sisters made from the most unlikely sort--case in point, New Order. In "Get Ready" New Order ditch the temptation of dance-floor stagnation for what seems to be a reach for that mythical pop radio sound--dead since the late 80's--guess what, the idea turns out well. "Get Ready" a hybrid of post-punk-pop-and-b push songs you can sing (even when you don't know the words), music and melody that seem so familiar that you'd think they are pop standards. About the cover design of "Get Ready", at the time gave New Order a much needed youth fueled look firmly placed in the now, yet over the years this image of a young woman holding a consumer video camera will look less of the now, and more of the then, the then you missed out on, the then that was really cool. Nice work :) Noteworthy Tracks: Crystal 60 miles an hour Rock the Shack Someone Like You

"Anything other than love is devoured by love(Rumi)" Top 5 Page for this destination Konya by chauncenetta
Konya Travel Guide: 177 reviews and 603 photos
Konya is a city of about a million people, but feels more like a small town. The mystical philosophy of Mevlana Jalaladdin Rumi is reflected in the people, who are gentle and kind and full of humor. The Selcuk artifacts and architecture are awesome. Wonderful unexpected visuals, like the woman I saw speeding by on a motorbike wearing a burqa.
- Pros:pure spiritual energy
- Cons:there are no con's

Hi - where in the city is this located? We will likely be staying near Rumi's Tomb, so directions from there would be particularly valuable to us. :)
Very nice introduction. Very helpful.
Sometimes I feel very only. LOL
Wow! your Tourist Trap comment is a nice show of intelligence and irony. I like too much this (your) style. Congratulations. P.S.: birth august 24? it explains a lot to me :))
Konya is a peaceful town. I enjoyed my visit there and saw about the same places as you. Great tips!
"We would drink tea not speaking and smile at each other" my favorite line... enjoyed your writing!
yes, I will go back to McDonalds and say,"DUDE! SOMEBODY LIED !!!!!!!"
My dear "very only", there is a long novel called Conversation at the Cathedral. We can start a short essay called: Conversations at Konya's MacDonalds.
Nice page! Thank you. I love Turkey because of the hospitality .... and drunk a lot of teas during my 5 visits.

"For us to enliven the endurance of humanity, we must become accustomed to the repetition of humanitarian diligence. When the boredom of such life style is embraced with passion and becomes aspirational, subtle enlightenment transpires."
"There is no secret that injustice flourishes on prejudice. In fact, it is its main course for injustice to constantly bait, nurture, and aggregate prejudice, since it knows without prejudice it becomes secluded and baseless."
"Democracy never guarantees the best to be elected. Democracy, as it is designed and when it is functional, supposedly guarantees stopping the worst from doing evils."
"When an ideology contradicts the principles of the Constitution, I don't accept it as an American ideology."
"One can argue whether democracy has always committed to and resulted in safeguarding liberty and equality. Rest assured that there would be no safeguard for liberty or equality when democratic proceedings become operatives of money."
"From a mother's face, I see a rich deposit of love. Her fading sight sparks vividly the summative passion. My deep respect and veneration are instantly commended. It solidifies even further my conviction that there is only one race – the human race."
"Broad and sustainable love is not from an attraction in the form of compulsive sensation. Broad and sustainable love is common sense, the kind sense we had when we were kids."
"He who detests his siblings doesn't truly love his mother. He who fails to respect all the created shouldn't claim he worships the Creator."
"Engineering distortion is a coward act to hide the real intent of destroying. But it is more harmful than attempting destroying because it is deceiving."
