NEW YORK (AP) — Key stock indexes fell Thursday as a pair of U.S. retail giants posted better-than-expected profits, but revenue that fell just short.
The Dow Jones industrial average ended down 0.2%, falling 29 points to finish at 12,542. Slipping 0.3% and 0.2% were the Nasdaq composite and the S&P 500, respectively.
Most investors continue to be focused on the threat of going over the so-called "fiscal cliff" by year's end and the a recession in the eurozone three years into its debt crisis.
World stocks fell Thursday as hopes began to fade for a quick agreement among U.S. leaders to avoid a "fiscal cliff" that could derail the U.S. economy. A widely predicted leadership change in China didn't appear to impact Asian stock markets.
Unless President Obama and Congress reach a compromise, a series of expiring tax cuts and across-the-board spending reductions will take effect in 2013 at a cost of about $800 billion. Economists say that it would knock the economy back into recession.
In Europe, Britain's FTSE 100 ended the day down 0.8% to 5,677.75. Germany's DAX finished down 0.8% to 7,043.42. France's CAC-40 closed 0.5% lower at 3,382.40.
Also Thursday, the Labor Department also reported a surge in unemployment benefit applications due largely to the havoc from Superstorm Sandy in Northeast states.
The government also reported that inflation remains in check: The Consumer Price index rose 0.1% in October, bringing the rise in the closely watched gauge of inflation for consumers to 2.2% the past 12 months.
Wal-Mart shares (WMT) ended the day down 3.6% after its expectations for the current quarter fell shy of Wall Street expectations. An investigation into bribery allegations in Mexico also may be expanding to a number of other countries.
In a filing with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission Thursday, Wal-Mart said that "inquiries or investigations regarding allegations of potential (U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act) violations have been commenced in a number of foreign markets where we operate, including but not limited to Brazil, China and India."
Superstorm Sandy drove the number of people seeking unemployment benefits up to a seasonally adjusted 439,000 last week, the highest level in 18 months, the Labor Department said.
The storm struck the East Coast on Oct. 29 and left wide swaths of damage from North Carolina to Maine. The storm also cut power to roughly 8 million homes and businesses, and some are still without power.
Retailers in the region were also affected and most closed stores at some point.
Target (TGT) reported a higher profit for the third quarter. Target said that comparable store sales rose 2.9%, which was a slower growth rate than last year.
Benchmark oil for December delivery ended down $1 even, or 1.2%, to $85.32 in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The price of gold finished $17.30 lower, or 1%, to $1,717.20.
The yield on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note held steady at 1.59%. In currencies, the euro rose to $1.2776 from $1.2745 Thursday. The dollar rose to 81.19 yen from 80.17 yen.
In Asia, as expected, Xi Jinping secured the top spot in the Communist Party on Thursday, replacing outgoing leader Hu Jintao. Xi was introduced as general secretary at Beijing's Great Hall of the People, a day after the close of a party congress that underlined the communists' resolve to hold on to power.
Hong Kong's Hang Seng tumbled 1.6% to 21,108.93. Benchmark indexes in Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand also fell.
In mainland China, the Shanghai Composite Index lost 1.2% to 2,030.29, the lowest close in more than a month.
Japanese stocks were kept buoyant by a weakening yen and reports that Japanese parliamentary elections have been set for Dec. 16. The Nikkei 225 index rallied 1.9% to close at 8,829.72 after Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda reportedly pledged to dissolve the parliament by Friday if the opposition agreed to key reforms.
"Japan is up today because of the announcement of an election date in the hope that there may be some more stimulatory policies as a result of that," said Peter Elston, strategist at Aberdeen Asset Management in Singapore.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 3 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by Venus Wonderful Surprise! Great flavor, i'm not sure i'd call this VERY peachy, but it's both a sweet and clean taste. Definitely some lemon in there. I only have to use about half the amount of tea leaves I usually do to still get a strong taste. One jar has lasted me months!! Was so surprised by this tea, wasn't expecting the great taste, and for it to last so long. I hope i'll see more Zhena's flavors added to the site soon. Thank you!! March 1, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Amelie Great Tasting tea! I made this tea with my french press, and I absolutely loved it! It's amazing. I do add a 1/2 tsp more than it suggests for an 8oz. cup. It makes it very flavorful. I can definitely taste the peach. I'm excited to try out the other flavors February 28, 2015
Rated 1 out of 5 by GreenTeaRex Not much flavor I'm new to the world of mass tea consumption, so maybe my opinion isn't worth all that much. But the tea isn't very flavorful. It has such a strong smell but the tea is pretty bland. I might try a stronger steeping time. I have tried other peach passions where you can actually taste the peach. But this tea isn't much different than just a glass of hot water. December 28, 2013

Gun Shop That Sold Firearm to Newtown Shooter's Mom Has Gun License Revoked — Feds Don't Say Why | TheBlaze.com
Gun Shop That Sold Firearm to Newtown Shooters Mom Has Gun License Revoked Feds Dont Say Why
Apr. 5, 2013 3:30pm
NEW HAVEN, Conn. A shop that sold a gun to the Newtown school shooters mother has lost its federal firearms license.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives revoked the license of Riverview Gun Sales in East Windsor in December. The agency didnt say why.
Nancy Lanza purchased a Bushmaster from Riverview, according to a person close to the investigation into the school shooting who spoke on condition of anonymity because the probe is continuing. It could not be confirmed whether the Bushmaster was the one used in the shooting.
Shop owner David LaGuercia said in December that Nancy Lanza bought a gun from him years ago, but he couldnt remember what kind. LaGuercia said at the time he was cooperating with law enforcement.
There is nothing more devastating than the loss of a child, LaGuercia said in a statement in December. We are absolutely appalled that the product that we sold several years ago would be used in this type of horrendous crime. Our hearts go out to the victims and the families.
His wife, Shelley Clemens, said Friday that she and her husband still dont know why the ATF revoked his firearms license. She said the store remains open selling ammunition and other items while LaGuercia appeals the revocation.
They just came in the store after Sandy Hook, raided the store and took away the license, she said, referring further questions to her husband. LaGuercia, of Agawam, Mass., didnt return phone messages Friday.

In 1983, A small group of music industry professionals led by Atlantic Records Founder and Chairman Ahmet Ertegun and including Rolling Stone magazine publisher Jann Wenner, attorney Allen Grubman, manager Jon Landau and record executives Seymour Stein, Bob Krasnow along with attorney Suzan Evans set out to establish an organization to "recognize the people who have created this music which has become the most popular music of our time." Ertegun approached the heads of various record companies with his idea, spearheading the formation of the non-profit organization that would eventually become the Foundation.
In 1986, the Foundation held the first annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony in the Waldorf-Astoria Grand Ballroom in New York City. That same year, the Foundation selected Cleveland as the permanent home of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.
In September 1995, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum opened in Cleveland. A series of events, including an all-star celebration concert featuring the Allman Brothers, Chuck Berry, James Brown, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, Al Green, Jerry Lee Lewis, John Mellencamp, Iggy Pop, the Pretenders, Bruce Springsteen, Booker T. & the MG's and others unveiled the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum to the world.
In 2006, Joel Peresman, a music industry veteran and former chief of Concerts and Entertainment at Madison Square Garden, became President and CEO of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. Under Peresman's leadership, the Foundation announced the return of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremonies to Cleveland in 2009 and every three years thereafter. The Foundation also staged the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary concerts on October 29 and 30, 2009, at Madison Square Garden in New York City. These events featured legendary performances by Crosby, Stills and Nash, Simon and Garfunkel, Stevie Wonder, Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bonnie Raitt, Jackson Browne, Jeff Beck, Sting, Aretha Franklin, Patti Smith, U2, Metallica, Mick Jagger and many others. These historic shows and their broadcast on HBO helped fund the first-ever endowment for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum in Cleveland.
In addition to these projects, the Foundation provided an $8 million gift in 2008 to the Museum's Capital Campaign, which was used to build the Library and Archives center in downtown Cleveland and the 2010-2011 Redesign of the Museum interior. The Foundation also provides funding for Museum capital projects on an on-going basis and continues to be the largest single contributor to the Museum.
Beyond funding, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation leverages its presence in one of the world's major cultural and philanthropic centers to provide increased exposure for the Museum mission, connections to artists and philanthropists, and other partnerships to advance the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's cultural preservation initiatives.

City Welcomes Navient Corporate Headquarters to the Riverfront
Posted on 04/08/2014 4:31 pm
Today, Navient, the new loan management, servicing and asset recovery company set to launch later this year, announced the City of Wilmington's Riverfront as the location of its corporate headquarters.
Navient signed a 7-year lease with Pettinaro to occupy approximately 40,000-square-feet of space in the Star Building, which is located at 123 Justison Street on the Wilmington Riverfront. Moving to the Riverfront will provide the company with the opportunity for additional growth.
"I would like to thank Navient for their investment in Wilmington and for their confidence in our city to be the new home for their employees and company headquarters," said Mayor Dennis P. Williams. "The City continues to explore new methods of economic growth and job creation. Navient's move into the City reaffirms that Wilmington remains a good investment option for businesses and is a preferred location. We look forward to working with Navient in the future and wish them much success."
Navient stands as a reputable company with a strong legacy, and will have a positive economic impact on the City of Wilmington by creating new jobs, tax revenues and increased development. With projections of 120 new jobs, Navient will also potentially attract new residents and patrons to support local businesses on the Riverfront and in downtown Wilmington.
In a press release, Navient indicated it selected the Riverfront location for its suitable building infrastructure, proximity to the Amtrak train station and convenience to quality of life attractions for employees.
Harold Gray, Director of Economic Development for the City said, "I believe that Navient has made a great choice to settle operations in Wilmington. This is the culmination of team efforts by Navient, the State, City officials, as well as the local community. We look forward to Navient's success and to working with them in the future."

Juan-les-Pins Travel guide
Juan-les-Pins : Michelin's recommendations
The name Juan-les-Pins is inextricably linked to jazz. The town became a centre for jazz music in the 1920s when the first American tourists arrived here. Sydney Bechet subsequently established the festival in 1959. From the pine forest where the festival is held, it's just a short walk to a delightful 3km-long sandy beach. The seafront promenade au Soleil is reminiscent of the Croisette in Cannes.

The best Asian restaurants on Long Island: Eat here now
From Beijing duck to Thai chicken satay, Indian dosas to Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches, the specialties of Asian kitchens have become staples on Long Island -- and the competition has jumped. Here are the top 10 Asian restaurants in Nassau and Suffolk.
Red Tiger Dumpling House(Credit: Heather Walsh)
Red Tiger Dumpling House, Stony Brook: The soup dumpling, a Shanghai delicacy, is a major attraction at this casual spot serving dishes from Shanghai, Beijing and northern China. There are other draws, as well, like delicate crystal shrimp dumplings and open-topped shrimp and pork shumai. Try the deeply nuanced cumin beef, the ''big meatball with brown sauce,'' a Shanghai classic made with ground pork, and fiery Beijing-style shredded potato with hot pepper (pictured).
Steamed crabmeat and pork soup buns are served at the Red Tiger Dumpling House in Stony Brook.
Southern Spice Chettinad Cuisine(Credit: Barbara Alper)
Southern Spice Chettinad Cuisine, New Hyde Park: Don't let the modest decor fool you. Southern Spice serves the vibrant, little-known cuisine of the Chettinad region of India. The restaurant's curries sparkle, and don't miss the pepper-crusted tandoori duck breast or the paneer pudina tikka, wherein slabs of paneer (firm, fresh cheese) are marinated in a mint-cilantro-yogurt mixture, then skewered with peppers, roasted in the tandoor oven, then unthreaded onto a piping hot griddle. For the adventurous: goat brain masala (pictured), creamy and surprisingly mild.
Egg biryani is served at Southern Spice Chettinad Cuisine in New Hyde Park.
Fortune Wheel(Credit: Nicole Horton)
Fortune Wheel, Levittown: Fortune Wheel is a bit like a time capsule. The decor, the lighting, the noise, the pace, all have a 1960s feel. It's tucked into a mall near Best Buy and BJ's Wholesale Club, so the overall atmosphere may not be your cup of oolong. But the Chinese food is dependable -- very good, sometimes better. Recommended: delectable dim sum from the rolling carts (especially fried or steamed dumplings); crisp taro cakes; turnip cakes; steamed pork buns; lobster with ginger and scallions (pictured), black bean sauce, or Cantonese; shrimp with lobster sauce; kung pao chicken; General Tso's chicken; and eggplant with garlic sauce.
Shumai and steamed pork buns are served at Fortune Wheel in Levittown.
Chef Wang(Credit: Benjamin Petit)
Chef Wang, New Hyde Park: Well-credentialed chef Ding Gen Wang, who also owns three Manhattan Sichuan restaurants, brings the authentic fare of his native Sichuan province to New Hyde Park. Dishes you'll want to try include cool and sprightly smoked tofu with Chinese celery, seductively spicy cumin fried lamb, and shredded pork with dry bean curd, bold and smoky. Hot pot cooking, for groups that like to get interactive with their food, is also a big draw. (Pictured: seared tuna with jalapeno, cilantro and yuzu; scallops with cucumber, cilantro, red onion and special chef sauce; sweet shrimp and deep-fried shrimp heads and ikura.)
Smoked tofu with Chinese celery is a vibrant appetizer at Chef Wang in New Hyde Park.
Frankly Thai(Credit: Jeremy Bales)
Frankly Thai, Franklin Square: Five years after opening their gracious Thai restaurant, married couple Frankie Perrone and Jintana Lauchalermsuk seem as passionate about the place as ever. The affable Perrone presides over the dining room while Lauchalermsuk rules the kitchen. Her cooking is filled with nuance, the flavors artfully layered. Perennial favorites include curry puffs, drunken noodles (pictured), pad Thai and pineapple shrimp curry. Be sure to ask about specials, and don't miss the Thai zeppoli for dessert.
Clockwise, from left, are shrimp pad Thai, Thai zeppoli, duck salad, and mango curry with shrimp, made at Frankly Thai in Franklin Square.
The Rolling Spring Roll(Credit: Nicole Horton)
The Rolling Spring Roll, Farmingdale: Those who crave authentic Vietnamese cuisine converge on this friendly little Farmingdale spot, known for its lively flavors. Recommendations from chef-owner Joe Bui's repertoire include the namesake spring rolls, vibrant summer rolls (rice papers stuffed with vegetables, mint leaves, cilantro shrimp and rice noodles; pictured) as well as the aromatic noodle soups known as pho. You also don't want to miss out on the one-bowl entrees called "bun" wherein marinated grilled meat, poultry or fish is served atop rice noodles.
Grilled salmon with tomato sauce is served at The Rolling Spring Roll in Farmingdale.
Monsoon Steak & Sushi(Credit: Doug Young)
Monsoon Steak & Sushi, Babylon: Although Monsoon added steak and sushi to its name, and is excellent for both, the kitchen peaks with chef Michael Wilson's flavor-packed, imaginative takes on Asian cuisine, served in a high-style dining room in a former bank building. Monsoon is part of the Bohlsen Restaurant Group, which includes Prime, an American kitchen and bar in Huntington, and Tellers: An American Chophouse, in Islip. Recommended: Beijing duck, kung pao monkfish (pictured), Korean fried chicken, Vietnamese ''shaking beef,'' Bibb lettuce wraps with chicken, lobster Cantonese, steamed pork-belly buns, shredded duck buns, spicy rock shrimp tempura, sashimi and sushi platters, dry-aged steaks, Chinese eggplant, edamame dumplings, wok-fried shishito peppers, pork fried rice and chilled lobster salad.

Moonstone(Credit: Newsday / Erica Marcus)
Moonstone, Great Neck: The moonstone symbolizes passion and luck -- and standout Chinese food at this sleek, contemporary restaurant. It brings a taste of Flushing and much more to points east. Recommended: Shanghai-style soup dumplings, wheat noodles in sesame-peanut sauce, roast pork-and-taro puffs, pan-seared chicken-and-Chinese chive dumplings, Beijing duck, claypot chicken (pictured), wok-seared rack of lamb, citrus-flavor crisp beef, kung pao monkfish, ''kung fu'' halibut with peppery Sichuan-style mala sauce, whole red snapper in sweet-sour sauce, eggplant in garlic sauce, stir-fried string beans with minced pork and a banana spring roll.
House of Dosas(Credit: Jeremy Bales)
House of Dosas, Hicksville: The specialty here is the vegetarian cuisine of Southern India, specifically the manhole cover-sized rice-lentil crepes called dosas, which come stuffed with scores of savory fillings. Also try the thicker, dinner-plate-sized uthappams (pictured), seductively spongy, crisp-bottomed rice-lentil pancakes whose fillings are embedded in the tender top surfaces. Other hits include bhel puri, a popular street snack made with puffed rice, onion and chili, and the ''healthy salad'' made with bitter gourd.
The Orient(Credit: Jeremy Bales)
The Orient, Bethpage: The Orient's menu ranges from authentic Chinese (clams in black bean sauce, head-on garlic-fried chicken, weekend dim sum) to Chinese-American standards (meaty spareribs, young-chow fried rice) to proprietor Tommy Tan's own creations (he has a thing for filet mignon). Ask what Chinese vegetables are in season and you may be treated to sauteed pea shoots, or garlic scapes. Be prepared to wait for a table on weekends; no reservations. (Pictured: Cold jellyfish with chili sauce.)

Reviews for Strawberry Rhubarb Pie
"I love the combo of these two and can't wait to try it."
"I never made anything from Taste of Home that wasn't awesome and as I expected?..except this time. I guess there is a first time for everything, even TofH. It was a ok Strawberry pie, but just ok? certainly not enough rhubarb even through I doubled it. Won't try this one again was pretty disappointed."
"Pretty good pie, the family liked it."
"The strawberry jello gives the pie an artificial strawberry flavor. I prefer my homemade pies to taste homemade, not like jello. Also, I like strawberry rhubarb pie to have chunks of rhubarb. With this recipe, once you cook the rhubarb it mushes up & just becomes part of the sauce. This was a good tasting pie, but I will not make this recipe again."
"This is our favorite pie."

This position paper provides basic guidelines for dealing with lightning. You must follow the instructions on this page. Recognizing the threat Apply the 30-30 ruleWhen you see lightning, count the time until you hear thunder. If this time is 30 seconds or less, seek proper shelter. If you can't see the lightning, just hearing the thunder is a good back-up rule. Wait 30 minutes or more after hearing the last thunder before leaving shelter. Know and heed warning systems and community rules Many communities or park systems have lightning detection and warning systems. Use this information and obey the rules established by the community or park system. Know and apply the rules or procedures established by the competition authority. Minimize the risk of being struck.Protect the safety of all participants by stopping game activities quickly, so that participants and spectators may retire to a safer place before the lightning threat becomes significant. Remember, if you can hear the thunder, you are within reach of lightning. Seeking proper shelter No place outside is safe near thunderstorms The best shelter is a large, fully enclosed, substantially constructed building. A vehicle with a solid metal roof and metal sides is a reasonable second choice. If there is no proper shelter, avoid the most dangerous locations: Higher elevations; wide open areas, including fields; tall isolated objects, such as trees, poles, or light posts; unprotected open buildings; rain shelters; bus stops; metal fences and metal bleachers.

All things Mother Earth Living
by Robyn Griggs Lawrence, Editor at Large
trends, Compas Naturals, GMOs, animal cruelty
As another year moves to a close, predictions for the next one start rolling in. I found a lot to smile about in these from Steven Hoffman, president of natural products research and marketing firm Compass Naturals. These are my favorites—and here's to the year of the Vigilante Consumer
1. Shoppers will get savvier. As the job market continues to lag, hard-pressed consumers will be more discerning in their budgets for organic, and low-income families will find it particularly hard to find healthful food. Coupon redemption was up 25 percent this year, with Internet coupons accounting for the fastest growing segment in the business. Private-label product sales increased from 15 to 18 percent of total food sales, according to research firm Booz & Company, which also reports that the new frugality may be here to stay. Consumers continue to feel they are on shaky ground.

2. We'll rebel against the chemicals. Finally, Americans are protesting the cumulative public health effects of chemicals in our environment, food and packaging. The average school age child has an estimated 10 to 13 pesticide residues in her body every day, and the President's Cancer Panel reported on "pre-polluted babies" born with as many chemicals in their umbilical cords. Families are reacting: 41 percent of parents report buying more organic foods today than a year ago, according to a joint survey released this month by the Organic Trade Association and Kiwi Magazine.
3. We'll pay attention to packaging. In the latest packaging scare, fast food and deli paper wrap and microwave popcorn bags were found to leach cancer-causing chemicals into our food. As stories like this continue to emerge, more people will ask for packing that won't clog up landfills or leach chemicals into food. Many natural and organic products companies have reduced their packaging content and now use BPA-free cans.
4. We'll grow more Victory Gardens. Organically grown Victory Gardens are giving more people access to fresh, local produce. Farmers markets, CSAs (Community Supported Agriculture) and small-scale urban farms are growing fast.
Victory Gardens, such as this garden by Slow Food Nation in San Francisco, will continue to grow in popularity in 2011. Photo By In Praise of Sardines/Courtesy Flickr.
5. We'll be kinder to the animals we eat. We're entering a new era of animal rights advocacy that addresses the inhumane, intensive confinement conditions in which most animals are bred for food. Beginning January 1, Whole Foods Market will sell only meat that's rated under new animal welfare standards. Whole Foods created Global Animal Partnership as a nonprofit third party certifier to establish ratings, conduct inspections and administer the standards.
6. We'll need to be vigilant about GMOs. As numerous food allergy and health concerns surrounding GMOs in food emerge, consumers are looking to the Non-GMO Project to verify that their products are GMO-free. The FDA is evaluating genetically engineered salmon—the first potential GMO animal for commercial consumption—and also a GMO apple that doesn't turn brown when cut open. If you are not choosing organic or if it doesn't say non-GMO on the label, chances are your food contains GMOs. An estimated 80 percent of conventional grocery products do.
7. We'll think and shop locally and globally. As consumers respond to the 'buy local" trend, they also see that "local" can mean choosing organic and fair trade products that support local economies around the world.
8. Bonus Trend: Young people are going back to the land. USA Today reports that an emerging movement of young people, "most of whom come from cities and suburbs," are taking up organic farming on small-acre farms as an "honorable, important career choice." The National Young Farmers' Coalition is a new organization for young and beginning farmers, and a soon-to-be-released documentary, The Greenhorns, explores the lives of America's young sustainable farming community.

While the Rock Hall team was in New York for the 25th Anniversary Concerts, a celebration of the late Jerry Wexler's life and his legacy was held at the Director's Guild. This tribute was a lively event meant to rejoice in all of the music that Hall of Fame Inductee Jerry was responsible for or had touched in his inimitable way.
Jerry's daughter and son, Lisa and Paul, got it started with a few words about their Dad. Both discussed how much he meant to each of them and what a powerful influence he had been on their lives as well as so many others in the music industry.
The program was divided into two parts: first, speakers who gave personal remembrances; and second, a group of performers doing renditions of songs that Jerry produced and/or loved…..or both.
Many of the speakers gave testimony as to what Jerry had meant to their lives. Several talked of his being a "rabbi" of sorts. David Ritz, who co-authored Jerry's autobiography and is the dean of musical biographers, even provided the audience with some very specific legal advice that Jerry had proffered in response to one of David's problems. It was hilarious and unrepeatable.
As for the performances, they ran the gamut from heartfelt to riveting. They included a terrific set by Jerry's daughter, Lisa with her long running band, Big Sister. Lenny Kaye, my old college chum and Hall of Fame Inductee Patti Smith's guitarist, assisted them.
Other highlights included a song by Joe South, whom few had seen in almost 30 years. It was truly a special moment. William Bell brought it all back to Stax with "You Don't Miss Your Water" and was outstanding as always. Bettye Lavette followed with a stirring version of "Drown in My Own Tears." She also told the audience that Jerry Wexler was the only person in the record industry that ever helped her. This statement came with a profound explanation and commentary on her remarkable journey in the biz to where she is today. Bettye is a featured performer in our American Music Masters event this year honoring Janis Joplin. Her fabulous contribution just made me more anxious for the AMM week to begin.
Next, Lou Ann Barton did the song Jerry first heard her perform which she later recorded with him. It's one of my all time favorites, "It's Raining", a classic from Irma Thomas.
All in all, it was a fitting celebration of someone who truly changed the landscape of musical history and world culture. I was proud and honored to be there.
Jerry Wexler was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a non-performer in 1987.

DirectionsShow MapHide Map
We are located in the old town of Lijiang. Vehicles aren't allowed into old town, so you have to get to an old town entrance and then walk a few minutes to find our accommodation. If lost, don't hesitate to call us, and we can either come meet you or give directions to a driver to drop you off in the most convenient location.
Taxis and minivans can't come into old town, so show them this address, which is the old town entrance nearest to our accommodation: "古城管理局路口"
From this entrance, walk down the cobblestone road into old town, taking the left hand fork after a small wooden kiosk just 30m from the main road. Take this step narrow road down to the end, where it joins a main old town thoroughfare. At this T-junction, turn right, walk 20m and take the steps down on your left for about 75m where there is another intersection. At this junction, turn left, and walk about 80m. Straight ahead you will see the sign for us. Take the left hand alleyway.
From the waterwheel at the entrance to old town, walk along the main wide road that goes from the TV square to the old town square named Sifang Jie. In the square, take the first left exit, Wu Yi street, which crosses the Big Stone Bridge. Walk along this main thoroughfare for 10 minutes, passing under an archway, crossing another street, and after 80m take the steps down to your right. Go to the next intersection, turn left, and after 80m you will see a white building as the road curves to the right. Take the alleyway to the left, to our signposted guesthouse.
If you require a personal pickup, book in advance with us, and we will
send you details.

The title quote is from p.221 of the 2010 book, The Shape of Inner Space: String Theory and the Geometry of the Universe's Hidden Dimensions by Shing-Tung Yau and Steve Nadis. "Nash's theorem" here refers to the Nash embedding theorem (discussed in an earlier MO question: "Nash embedding theorem for 2D manifolds"). I would appreciate any pointer to literature that explains where and why embedding fails. This is well-known in the right circles, but I am having difficulty locating sources. Thanks!
The failure is actually more profound than you might guess at first glance:
There are conformal metrics on the Poincare disk that cannot (even locally) be isometrically induced by embedding in $\mathbb{C}^n$ by any holomorphic mapping. For example, there is no complex curve in $\mathbb{C}^n$ for which the induced metric has either curvature that is positive somewhere or constant negative curvature.
You can get around the positivity problem by looking for complex curves in $\mathbb{P}^n$ (with the Fubini-Study metric, say), but even there, there are no complex curves with constant negative curvature.
More generally, for any Kahler metric $g$ on an $n$-dimensional complex manifold $M$, there always exist many metrics on the Poincare disk that cannot be isometrically induced on the disk via a holomorphic embedding into $M$.
This should not be surprising if you are willing to be a little heuristic: Holomorphic mappings of a disk into an $n$-dimensional complex manifold essentially depend on choosing $n$ holomorphic functions of one complex variable and each such holomorphic function essentially depends on choosing two (analytic) real functions of a single real variable. However, the conformal metrics on the disk depend essentially on one (positive) smooth function of two variables, which is too much `generality' for any finite number of functions of a single variable to provide.
Using the maximum modulus principle you can show that $\mathbb{C}^n$ doesn't have any compact complex submanifolds of positive dimension. It follows that lots of complex manifolds, such as complex grassmannians and projective spaces for example, do not embed into $\mathbb{C}^n$.
As Faisal says, there is no hope to have a general Nash-type theorem for all complex manifold, when the ambient space considered for the (isometric) embedding is some $\mathbb C^N$: no compact complex manifold of positive dimension could admit it. On the other hand there are a lot of compact complex manifold of positive dimension.
Restricting the attention to the compact case then, one may guess if there is a natural analogous of the Nash embedding theorem. For instance, one may wonder if given any compact hermitian manifold $(X,\omega)$ one can embed it isometrically into some projective space, endowed with its natural Fubini-Study metric.
It turns out that there are several restrictions both of analytic and geometrical nature. For instance, the starting metric $\omega$ must then be a Kähler form (as a restriction of the Fubini-Study Kähler form). It then gives a nonzero cohomology class in $H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb R)\subset H^2(X,\mathbb R)$. Moreover, being the Fubini-Study metric the Chern curvature form of the (anti)tautological line bundle, its cohomology class must be integral, that is in the image $H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb Z)$ in $H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb R)$ of the natural inclusion $H^2(X,\mathbb Z)\subset H^{2}(X,\mathbb R)$.
The celebrated Kodaira's embedding theorem states that the converse is in fact true:
Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold of dimension $\dim X=n$ possessing an integral $(1,1)$-cohomology class $[\omega]\in H^{1,1}(X,\mathbb Z)$ such that $[\omega]$ can be represented by a closed positive smooth $(1,1)$-form $\omega$. Then, there is an embedding $\iota\colon X\hookrightarrow \mathbb P^N$ to some complex projective space (and a posteriori $X$ is indeed algebraic by Chow's theorem).
This embedding is obtained as follow. Given $[\omega]$, there exists a holomorphic hermitian line bundle $L\to X$ with hermitian metric $h$ such that $c_1(L)=[\omega]$ and moreover the Chern curvature form is such that $\frac i{2\pi}\Theta(L,h)=\omega$. Then, for all $m\in\mathbb N$, one considers the holomorphic map
\varphi_{|L^{\otimes m}|}\colon & X\setminus\operatorname{Bs}(L^{\otimes m})\to\mathbb
P(H^0(X,L^{\otimes m})^*) \\
& x\mapsto\{\sigma\in H^0(X,L^{\otimes m})\mid \sigma(x)=0\},
where $\operatorname{Bs}(L^{\otimes m})$ is the set of points of $X$ where all sections in $H^0(X,L^{\otimes m})$ vanish simultaneously. What can be shown is in fact that for all sufficiently big $m$, one has that $\operatorname{Bs}(L^{\otimes m})=\emptyset$ and $\varphi_{|L^{\otimes m}|}$ is an immersive homeomorphism onto its image. Moreover, denoting by $\mathcal O(1)$ the (anti)tautological line bundle on $\mathbb P(H^0(X,L^{\otimes m})^*)$, one has that
\varphi_{|L^{\otimes m}|}^*\mathcal O(1)\simeq L^{\otimes m}.
Now, $H^0(X,L^{\otimes m})$ has a natural inner product, namely the $L^2$-product given by
\langle\langle\sigma,\tau{}\rangle\rangle_{L^2}=\int_X\langle\sigma(x),\tau(x)\rangle_{h^{\otimes m}}\frac{\omega^{n}}{n!},
Note that we didn't obtain an isometric embedding for the original metric. The best you can do we the original metric is to approximate it in the $C^2$-topology by the sequence of metrics $(\frac 1m\varphi_{|L^{\otimes m}|}^*\omega_{FS})_{m\in\mathbb N}$ by a result contained in the PhD thesis of G. Tian (please see the answer below by Joel Fine for more on that) (the convergence is now known to be in the $C^\infty$ topology on the space of symmetric covariant $2$-tensors, cf. the comment of Joel Fine here below).
Remark also that not any compact Kähler manifold admits such a cohomology class, thus the theorem "really give a criterion". For instance a generic compact complex torus of complex dimension greater than or equal to two is a compact Kähler manifold (with its natural flat metric) which does not admit any embedding in some projective space.
Turing to the literature, regarding the compact case there are several wonderful books in the literature. I'll give you two or three names, which are my favorites.
(1) J.-P. Demailly, "Complex Analytic and Differential Geometry",
(2) C. Voisin, "Théorie de Hodge et géométrie algébrique complexe".
(3) R. O. Wells Jr., "Differential analysis on complex manifolds".
For the non-compact case, there are also plenty of books of course. If you want to know more on the theory of Stein manifolds (precisely the analytic close submanifold of some $\mathbb C^N$), then for example
(4) L. Hörmander, "An introduction to complex analysis in several variables".
would do the job, at least for an introduction.
[edited after comments by Joel Fine and Robert Bryant]
This is not so much an answer to the original question, more an addition to the answer of diverietti and part of the answer Robert Bryant. Both mention the following analogue of Nash's embedding problem:
Given a Kähler manifold $(X, \omega)$, is there a projective embedding $X \to \mathbb{CP}^n$ for which the Fubini-Study metric pulls back to give $\omega$?
As Robert says, taken literally the answer is no. However, there is a beautiful theorem of Tian which says that the answer is yes, provided one is willing to let $n$, the dimension of the projective space, tend to infinity.
More precisely, let $L \to X$ be a positive holomorphic line bundle on $X$. This means there is a Hermitian metric $h$ in $L$ whose curvature is a Kähler form $\omega$ in $c_1(L)$. (Moreover, all Kähler forms in $c_1(L)$ arise this way.) With this metric $h$ and the volume form $\omega^n$ you can define an $L^2$-inner-product on the space of holomorphic sections of $L^k$, where $k$ is a large integer. Let $s_0, \ldots , s_n$ be an orthonormal basis of holomorphic sections (where $n$ depends on $k$ roughly $n \sim k^m$ where $m$ is the dimension of $X$). Then (for large $k$) the map $$ f_k(x) = [s_0(x) : \cdots : s_n(x) ] $$ defines an embedding to $\mathbb{CP}^n$ which has the following property: if we restrict the Fubini-Study metric from projective space to $X$ via the map $f_k$, rescale by $1/k$ (to keep the total volume fixed) and then take the limit as $k \to \infty$ we get the original metric $\omega$.

Gardening Articles: Edibles :: Fruit & Nut Trees
Fall Tree Care (page 2 of 2)
by Bonnie Lee Appleton
My third "unplanting" recommendation is to unmulch. Don't remove all of the mulch, but if you or someone else has gotten overzealous, meaning there is a layer of mulch more than four inches thick against the trunk of any tree or shrub, pull some of it away.
A three- to four-inch mulch layer is usually fine, but mulch against the trunk encourages bark decay or disease or insect problems. Excessive mulch can also create a welcoming habitat for animals such as voles that might feed on the base of your plants.
While you're pulling the mulch at the base of your plants back, check to be sure that your trees and shrubs weren't planted too deeply. The trunk flare or root-stem transition area should be at the soil surface. If the tree is too deeply set and has been in place for just a short time -- three to six months -- dig it up and plant it less deeply. If that's not possible, remove soil from around the trunk base, gradually tapering back to grade.
Be especially sure that any root packaging or balling materials were removed at planting time. These include natural jute or synthetic burlaps, natural hemp or synthetic ropes, the tops of wire baskets, plastic sleeves, even plastic pots. It's amazing how many of these materials are left intact at transplant time, and how quickly they can limit root growth and plant establishment or cause stem girdling. Even the tops of "plantable" peat-paper-fiber pots should be broken away. Their slow rate of biodegradation often limits root development, and the fibers wick moisture away from the roots.

Cool, wet Valentine's Day for Volusia and Flagler
Published: Thursday, February 14, 2013 at 6:36 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 14, 2013 at 10:41 p.m.
After several warm days Volusia and Flagler counties will experience some good snuggling weather for Valentine's Day.
This is the result of a cold front stalling over South Florida with a stronger reinforcing cold front expected to sweep across the waters of East Central Florida Saturday into Saturday night producing hazardous boating conditions
Forecasters with the National Weather service in Melbourne say Thursday's temperatures will reach a high near 67 degrees with skies being mostly cloudy.
Rain is also expected, with a 50 percent chance of showers predicted. A north wind will be around 10 mph.
Tonight, a 50 percent chance of showers may occur. Skies will be cloudy with a low around 51 degrees. A north wind of 5 to 10 mph will persist.
The really cool weather will hit this weekend. Overnight temperatures could dip into the 30s this weekend, with a forecast high of just 58 degrees on Sunday.
In traffic news, no crashes are reported in Volusia. In Flagler County, a wreck with injuries was reported at 5:47 a.m. at Belle Terre Parkway and Bird Paradise Drive in Palm Coast. There is no road blockage and no fatality reported.

The seatpost is a modern KIT ( custom ) you will find in the V-Twin catalog . it has been créated for all softails .
it opérates with a hard and short spring inside ....on a travel of exactly 15 Millimeters
this kit is NO-Good for a rigid . but for a frame with shocks abs ; the résult becomes really comfortable .
TWO longs springs would have been more comfortable ....but the "look" is incorret for a harley.
anyway : this is the customer's choice . he WANTED this kit .
about the footshift : this is a common repop 45' footclutch changed into a footshift : remove all the hardware inside + the spring for let it opérating free ( some different thick washers needed ) add an ARM on the internal side . a linkage with two uni-balls . the small chromed arm on the gearbox axle is also from V-Twin : this is a part from a foreward pegs kit . the handclutch is the original 883 hugger , on the handlebars .
this modification really works perfectly !
and the left side look is perfect .
I SAY IT AGAIN : THE HANDSHIFT on the tank IS TOTALLY FAKE !!!!!! only here for déco !!!!
