It's no secret that, around Christmas, everyone's budget gets a little tighter. There are just too many people to give gifts to. If you're trying to find some ingenious ways to save a little bit of cash this holiday season, then here are a few Christmas money savers that will help you do just that:
Pre-Christmas Clean-up
Before the holidays, do a pre-Christmas clean-up and get rid of the things you're not really using anymore. Somewhere at the back of your closet, there are clothes, bags, and shoes that are still in good condition, but you've just grown tired of them. You can collect all of these things and open up a garage sale. This way, you're hitting two birds with one stone: You can earn extra cash that you can use to buy Christmas gifts for your friends and family, and prepare your house and closet for all the gifts you're about to receive from your loved ones. Who knows? Maybe there are also items around your house that you use. Re-gifting these things is always an option—just don't tell anyone about it.
Christmas Bulk Buy
Have you ever done a Christmas bulk buy? It's when you buy a few things as a set, and then you give them away separately. Buying things in bulk helps you save money because they're usually offered at a lower price than the individual items. You can do this with books, storage boxes, toys, and others. For example, two toys might be sold separately at £7, but you can get them both for £10. That gives you a saving of £4!
Online Shopping
Online shopping is a great way to save money this holiday season. Beginning on Black Friday, online stores offer huge discounts and great deals to their customers. On top of that, you'll find additional discount codes and coupons that you can use at checkout, which means you get to save even more! You might also want to download "cash back" apps. How this type of app works is that it earns a small percentage of your total spending when you shop online through it, and then it will share with you a small cut of what it earns. Putting it simply, you can actually earn back money while you shop!
Flea Market Finds
Flea markets may be filled with old things, but you may never know what you unravel. Revamping and repurposing things that you find at the flea market is a nice way to show your loved ones that you put effort into fetching them Christmas gifts. Create key chains out of old leather belts, or turn old saucers into marbled jewellery dishes. There are so many things you can do with good flea market finds.
Christmas shopping doesn't have to be very expensive. With these Christmas money saver tips, you can save a bit of cash without sacrificing your loved ones' happiness.

I'm going to create a pint sized patch – perfect for kids!
It's gonna be filled with kid-friendly vegetables, oodles of pretty edible flowers and I'm gonna do it all organically.
I've chosen a range autumn and winter growing veggies to suit the coming seasons, but of course if you are planting in spring or summer then you'd reach for kids favourites like tomatoes, cucumbers and corn. I've already mixed through some compost into these veggie planters, so they are ready to go.
My kids go mad for peas, I'm going to plant 2 types. A snow pea and also a podding variety called Bounty. Now both of these are dwarf varieties which means they won't need staking and their pickings will be in easy kiddie reach! This Bounty variety is a really early cropper, in just 7 -10 weeks we'll be picking handfuls of full sized pods.
Next in goes some broccoli 'Bambino', this is one of the branching broccoli's, so it will still produce a central head but if you lop that off when it's about the size of a 10 cent piece you'll get oodles of side shoots that you can pick for months.
Kids love colour, so I can't forget this rainbow silverbeet – these brightly coloured stems keep their colour, even when cooked!
And you can't bet mini carrots for a quick veggie garden snack. This is a variety called "Little Fingers" and they are ready to harvest in 4-6 weeks – and best of all they're perfect picked when they're about 8cm long.
To really make this patch eye-poppingly pretty I'm going to include some edible flowers too – you can use these to decorate cakes or toss through a salad. I can't forget some herbs either – these Mixed Punnet Eziplanters are super handy coz you get 6 different herbs all in 1 punnet.
Get the kids excited about these veggies growing and get them involved in caring for the patch as well. So once a fortnight give the plants a dose of the certified organic fertiliser eco-aminogro and then to really amp up production pop in some eco-seaweed too.
With this organic combo your veggies will be sweeter and more tender, which of course the kids will love and with this productive bunch of plants you'll be picking from the patch in no time!

1 Kings 19:9A, 11-13A
Romans 9:1-5
Matthew 14:22-33
The prophet Elijah begins our readings today by going to Mount Horeb, also called Mount Sinai, and one of the things that we don't see in that passage (merely because of where the text today begins) is the reality that Elijah is fleeing to the "mountain of God" in fear of his life. Even though Elijah's time was centuries after Moses, the Holy Mountain was still in those days considered to be the place that a pilgrim went in solitude to get in touch with God in a very direct way. Elijah doubtless went there expecting some great wonder from God in order to signify His divine presence and make His will known. Throughout Sacred Scripture, God frequently made his presence known by wind, earthquake, and fire. When the Holy Spirit came upon the Apostles at Pentecost, the Acts of the Apostles describes it as "a rushing mighty wind." (cf. Acts 2:2) When Jesus rose from the dead, the first thing that the Gospel tells us occurred was "a great earthquake." (cf. Matthew 28:2). When God first appeared to Moses to make himself known and to call Moses to his prophetic mission to free Israel, God appears to Moses as fire that would not consume the bush that the fire was burning.
The idea that Elijah would go up to the Mountain of God and God would appear in an earthquake, or wind, or fire would have been what Elijah might have expected if he was going to have a direct encounter with God. He experienced a great wind and a great earthquake, and he saw fire, but he didn't find the Lord in those signs. He did not find the Lord in the way he would have been expecting. Instead, Elijah hears God in a "tiny whispering sound," a small voice.
In so many ways, Elijah's spiritual experience can be like our own. At some point in our lives we may have expected God to give us direction by showing us some miraculous "sign," indeed the Pharisees and Sadducees tried the very same thing with Jesus, they were constantly telling Jesus "give us a sign," even though He performed many miracles. (cf. Matt. 12:38, Matt. 16:1) Can God still make Himself known to humanity through miraculous signs in the world? He absolutely can, and indeed those of us who believe in the apparitions of the Blessed Mother at Fatima and Lourdes believe this has happened even in the modern era with events such as the "Miracle of the Sun" at Fatima, for example. But the reality is that most of the time, the obviously miraculous is not how God speaks to us, but instead in the miracles of our daily lives, and in the "small voice" that is often difficult for us to hear unless we take the time to listen for it.
Perhaps some of us here might be trying to determine what direction in our lives the Holy Spirit would have us to go. We might have an important decision or series of decisions to make about the future, or about finances, or work, or a family situation, or any number of things, and if you've ever been in a situation like that, you know that it is very typical for any of us to say "Lord, can you show me a sign," because we don't want to make the wrong decision. We can become so worried about doing the wrong thing that we can fail to hear the Holy Spirit in that whispering voice trying to guide us. I know that I have been guilty of that very fault.
A few people hearing this might even be considering a vocation to the priesthood, the diaconate, or the religious life. If that is the case for anyone here, some people may hesitate to further discern whether God is calling them to a vocation of Holy Orders or the religious life because they understand the solemn commitments involved in those callings-and they are serious commitments-and no one wants to make them and take them back if they discover that they were following their own desires rather than the Lord's will.
The really short version of the story of my own vocation is not that the Lord came to me and said "go and be a deacon," but rather that a series of happenings and events fell into place over a period of time in my life in such a way that the Holy Spirit was making Himself plain, I just needed to be open to hear, and see, and understand that. Before it was over the Lord might as well have put up a big sign in front of my face that said "DUH!"
We often look at today's Gospel and think that Jesus is simply chiding Peter for his lack of faith, but let us give the Holy Father some credit…it was his idea to step out on the water with Jesus to begin with, he said to Jesus "if it is really you, command me to come to you on the water" and so Jesus did, and Peter did not hesitate to go out on the water, he already believed that Jesus could make certain that Peter could come to him on the water. There was a storm brewing, the wind was almost certainly violent, and Peter doubts, and he begins to sink. Peter has a very human reaction that any of us might have had, and Jesus asks "oh ye of little faith, why did you doubt." And yet, Jesus rescues Peter, Jesus verifies that Peter's initial faith that Jesus could get him across the water was not misplaced.
There is always going to be risk in following the Lord if we are truly following Him. The secular world is not going to understand what we are doing if we truly follow and do what the Lord would like us to do, and in some cases the world can be outright hostile. Sometimes our family members or friends will not understand our decision to live a Gospel life-to have more children if we are able, as just one example, despite the strange looks or derisive comments we might get from others. Or to make sacrifices for the good of the Church which, if left solely to our own devices, we might not be prepared to make. Jesus shows us that even if it appears we are sinking, even if we do not know how the Lord is going to do it, and even if we doubt the outcome in the midst of trial, if we trust in the Lord He will see us through. He may not do so in the way we are expecting, and the outcomes might not even be what we would choose, but the Lord will not abandon us.
The Lord may not be in the fire, or the wind, and there may not be a great earthquake as a sign of His presence in our lives, but if we are willing to listen for Him, listen for that whisper of His voice, to be still and know that He is God (cf. Ps. 46:10), we will be able to hear the Lord, and respond to His call. When we do, we will best be able to live the life that God wants us, in his love and mercy, to live for Him.

The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook. – Julia Child
At the end of the day, there are probably few things more pleasurable than feeling the crunch of the herbs on the outside of a prime rib cooked medium rare or the taste and feel of an ice-cold oyster dipped in spicy cocktail sauce and doused with a squirt of lemon sliding down your throat. And yesterday, I experienced both sensations. And much more.
For more years than I remember, some iteration of folks – but always including Bill, Jen, her son BJ, and I — have visited the Greenbriar Inn just a few miles north of Boulder, Colorado, on Mother's Day for brunch. Because it's Mother's Day, we knock elbows with many, many other folks treating their mothers to the Greenbriar's amazing brunch.
Actually, that's not entirely true. At least one year Bill and I were unable to make it because of one of Colorado's infamous early-May snowstorms. That year, diehards Jen and BJ sat at their little table for two eating their mussels and eggs benedict and shrimp. A little snow wasn't going to stop them from their appointed round of Mother's Day brunch. They are gamers.
But this year, we simply couldn't make the Mother's Day brunch happen. There were many reasons, not the least of which was Bill and I arrived back to Denver from AZ a couple of weeks later than normal because we stayed to watch our niece graduate from ASU. And this year even Jen and BJ couldn't get things to fall into place. With much chagrin, we decided we had to bag our annual Mother's Day pig-out, er, brunch at the Greenbriar.
And then a few weeks ago, Jen (remember, she's a gamer?) called with great excitement. The Greenbriar doesn't just offer brunch on Mother's Day. Why don't we go out to brunch when Bec is visiting Colorado? She's never been, and I think we are all available.
Voila! And so we did just that. Yesterday we enjoyed Sunday brunch at the Greenbriar Inn, and it was better than ever, largely because Bec was with us. It helped that, not being Mother's Day, there were fewer patrons to fight over the oysters and mussels.
There is something so elegant about a brunch. It simply feels different than an all-you-can-eat buffet, even though for all intents and purposes, it is all you can eat. The offerings are fewer and more special. The atmosphere – at least at the Greenbriar – is elegant yet comfortable. And they promptly remove your plates each time you head up to the various food stations, thereby creating the illusion that all you are eating are those three shrimp and the tiny slice of bleu cheese on your plate. There's no way to prove that's actually your third helping of shrimp. And then, of course, there's the champagne.
When we first sat down, BJ noted that he intended to be quite strategic about his approach. I've given this some thought, he said with a twinkle in his eye. My goal is 36 trips this year.
We all nodded thoughtfully. Well, we all told him, then you'd better have champagne instead of Bloody Marys because they will fill you up too quickly. He didn't quite make it to 35, but he did darn well. As did we all.
So well, in fact, that at the end of the meal, when he saw that we had filled up a big plate of desserts instead of the little tiny plates they offered on the dessert table, our server nodded satisfactorily, and said, Nicely done, folks, nicely done. It made us recall one time when Court joined us for brunch and ate so many of the little crème brules that he was nearly sick; nevertheless, he grabbed another on his way out the door!
At the end of the meal, when we all were literally unable to eat another bite, our champagne glasses were messy with our fingerprints, and even the thought of one more oyster made us cringe, it occurred to us that we probably ate more at a single meal than some families eat in a week.
That notion makes me both proud and discomfited about being an American. But we sure had ourselves some fun. And God bless America……

Q1. I have lost hair because of my psoriasis. Does this condition cause permanent hair loss?
Psoriasis has never caused permanent hair loss, to my knowledge. Some inflammatory conditions may scar the skin, which can lead to hair loss, but psoriasis does not scar.
There are two scenarios I can imagine by which psoriasis could be involved in temporary hair loss. First, if there is psoriasis on the scalp, the inflammation may interfere with normal growth and regeneration of hairs. Secondly, a severe flare of psoriasis on the body may lead to a type of hair loss that is linked to major stress on the body (called telogen effluvium).
Either way, the hair should return unless some other factor is at play.
Q2. Can the area affected by psoriasis become infected, and if so what should be done about it – especially if it's located on the scalp?
Psoriasis can become secondarily infected, just as any condition or injury that compromises the skin's normal integrity. When the skin is inflamed, crusted or ulcerated, there is a higher potential for bacteria that typically live on the skin to invade and create a true infection.
There are two things that can be done. First, it is reasonable to start oral or topical antibiotic therapy if there is a suspected infection. However, it is imperative to repair the skin's barrier by treating the psoriasis. Therefore, the second thing you can do is treat the psoriasis itself, and that is essential in these situations.
Q3. I am a 55-year-old female and have been on Soriatane for four weeks for severe pustular psoriasis on both feet. I have had all of the common side effects and have experienced severe thinning of the hair. My dosage of 25 mg in the morning and 10 mg in the evening has been reduced to 25 mg only. Will my hair stop thinning and return on this lower dosage? Thank you.
Great question. Hair thinning is a well-known side effect with Soriatane (acitretin). However, yours seems to have set in rather quickly. Regardless, most of the common side effects of this medication (such as hair loss) do get better with a dose reduction.
Who knows? Once you start seeing improvement, you may be able to get by on even less Soriatane! Using topical creams or ointments and other additional therapy may also help you minimize the amount of systemic medication that is required to control your psoriasis.
Q4. I've heard about soaps drying the skin but what about those of us with scalp psoriasis? We have to wash our hair and are advised to use shampoos with tar or salicylic acid. My scalp is always dry and irritable. I appreciate anything you can tell me.
The scalp is difficult to treat for most patients who have psoriasis there. It is true that certain soaps may worsen dry skin and subsequently psoriasis. As far as soaps go, I usually recommend "cleansers" that are liquid-based and don't tend to lather as much as a standard bar soap. For your scalp, tar and salicylic acid shampoos are helpful, but if they are contributing to the dryness, I would suggest maybe using them every other wash, or even every third wash.
Finding acceptable medications for scalp psoriasis can be difficult because the treatments are ointments, which are messy, or alcohol-based and potentially drying. I have no financial conflict, so I can suggest you consider a prescription topical steroid product called Olux-E (clobetasol propionate) that is based on emollient foam and is FDA approved for psoriasis. It's relatively new and relatively expensive, but I have heard good feedback. There are also oil-based cortisones (steroids) that can be applied to the scalp, which you can talk to your doctor about.
Q5. My question is about Enbrel. I have been taking 50 mg of Enbrel once a week for over a year now, and my body seems to clear up, but it never clears my scalp. My doctor has now upped my dose to two 50 mg injections. I have been on this new dosage for two months now and still no effect. I use clobetasol ointment for my body and fluocinonide topical solution for my head and still no relief. Do you have any suggestions for me?
Your treatment plan sounds like a decent regimen, and one that I see frequently. I'm sorry your psoriasis is so stubborn.
There are a few things I would consider. You could switch from Enbrel (etanercept) to another biologic that may work better. Or you could add in another systemic medication like methotrexate or acitretin (Soriatane) or try some different topical creams or ointments.
The scalp is one of the hardest areas to treat for several reasons. First, there is typically a lot of hair there that impedes application of a topical. Second, the application of scalp medication is rarely a one-person job. It is very beneficial to have some help getting the hair out of the way and getting the medication to the scalp skin where it is needed.
Finally, perhaps the biggest challenge we face is helping patients find a way to use their medication regularly. Finding something that you don't mind using at least once day is the trick to topical therapy of the scalp. There are foams (Olux/clobetasol, Luxiq/betamethasone), sprays (Clobex/clobetasol) and coming soon is a new scalp solution, Taclonex (betamethasone and calcipotriene). Find one you like and get some help with the application.
Q6. I have severe psoriasis on my scalp. My hair is falling out by the handful, and I'm bald in certain areas. I have a 25-year reunion soon, and my hair is three different shades of color. Is there anything I can use to color my hair that is safe? Or should I just give up on looking good? I have always kept up with my hair, and now I look as though I've died. Please help me.
There is no medical reason not to color your hair while having scalp psoriasis. But you should make sure you have not had an allergic reaction to hair dye in the past. I would also recommend seeing your dermatologist to make sure there is no other medical condition that could be causing your bald patches. Good luck at your reunion. I hope it goes well.
Q7. I have a patch of psoriasis on one side of my neck that ends right at the hairline. Can I color my hair with anything safely? I am wanting to cover grays.
You should be able to use hair dyes normally. There is no contraindication to using hair dyes just because you have psoriasis.
Q8. My scalp has become littered with psoriasis. Is it safe to color my hair?
Yes, it is safe to color your hair as long as you are not allergic to the hair dye and the dye is not left on too long to cause an irritant reaction.
Q9. My 18-month-old daughter has psoriasis. I use prescription topical ointment on her at night after her bath and prescription hydrocortisone during the day. I recently have noticed areas of her scalp that look to be psoriasis also. Is it possible to use the ointment or cream on her scalp, or should I request a shampoo or spray because of her age?
Topical ointments and creams are more commonly used on the body and are difficult to apply on the scalp. There is no medical reason not to use them on the scalp, although medicated shampoos and solutions are also available. If you are having a hard time applying the creams or ointments on your daughter's scalp, you could switch to a shampoo or solution instead.
Q10. I have just been told that I have psoriasis on my head. I put a lotion on my scalp that the doctor prescribed. It does help, but I'm wondering if the psoriasis will spread to my face or neck.
Predicting the course of psoriasis is difficult. I can tell you that the scalp is a common location for psoriasis and the face is not. We don't understand why, but we know that the elbows, knees, belly button and lower back are common areas as well. If the psoriasis does begin to involve your face, there are some great treatments available.
I don't know what you are currently using for your scalp, but be careful about using it on your face. Doctors typically prescribe stronger medication for the scalp, and it may harm facial skin, which is more delicate.
Q11. What is a good shampoo to use for scalp psoriasis?
There are multiple shampoos used in the treatment of psoriasis. Options include tar, salicylic, topical steroid and anti-fungal shampoos.
Q12. I am a nurse who has psoriasis, and I was wondering if there are guidelines or protocols I can follow to keep myself free from infection due to open skin lesions.
We do not usually worry about increased risk of infection in patients with psoriasis. Most commonly, skin lesions of psoriasis represent a thickening of the outer layer of skin with a thickened cap of scale on top. Hence, for most people with psoriasis, no unusual precautions need to be taken to prevent infection. However, it is possible that your case has some special circumstances that I do not fully understand and would be worth bringing up to your dermatologist.

Sons of Ethel Rosenberg plead with Obama to exonerate mother
WASHINGTON (AP) — The sons of convicted spy Ethel Rosenberg returned to the White House on Thursday, more than 50 years after pleading unsuccessfully to spare her life, in a last-ditch appeal to President Barack Obama to exonerate her amid new evidence.
Rosenberg was executed in 1953 along with her husband, Julius, after being convicted of conspiring to pass secrets about the atomic bomb to the Soviet Union. But court records made public last year through a judge's order cast doubt on the conventional narrative of a Cold War espionage case that captivated the country.
"This is our mother we're talking about," Robert Meeropol, one of Rosenberg's two sons, said as he stood outside the White House gates. "Since we can't bring her back to life, there could be nothing more satisfying to us than to have the government acknowledge that this shouldn't have happened, that this was wrong."
The new documents showed that Ethel Rosenberg's brother, whose damning trial testimony against her and her husband helped secure the couple's conviction, had never implicated his sister in an earlier appearance before a grand jury. The brother, David Greenglass, offered the grand jury no evidence of his sister's direct involvement and said he never discussed such matters with his sister.
As young boys, Robert and Michael Meeropol visited the White House in 1953 in a failed bid to get President Dwight Eisenhower to prevent their parents' executions. Half a century later, the brothers approached a guard booth outside the White House and asked to deliver their letter to Obama.
They were turned away by U.S. Secret Service. "Ok, well, we tried," Michael Meeropol said as he stood in the sun, peering through the gate at the West Wing. "Thank you very much, anyway."
No matter, the brothers said. They've already sent a hard copy to Obama senior adviser Valerie Jarrett, and are hoping Obama will act before leaving office.
"I'm sure we'll take a look," said White House spokesman Josh Earnest. He said he was "not aware of any work that has been done thus far" on the brothers' request.
Both brothers argued that a national reckoning over an erroneous execution is crucial, perhaps now more than ever.
"We have gone through cycles in our history of hysteria, targeting people, over punishing, framing people. We're in danger of that happening again," Michael Meeropol said. "Recognizing that in the past we've done things we shouldn't have done might be a cautionary tale."
The Meeropols are not seeking a presidential pardon, saying that would suggest their mother was guilty. They instead are seeking a public exoneration, akin to a 1977 statement by then-Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis on behalf of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, Italian immigrants who were convicted for a 1920 murder and later executed. That proclamation said the trial was "permeated by prejudice" and that "any stigma and disgrace should be forever removed" from their names.
It's not clear what action, if any, the Obama administration will take in its waning weeks. But Rosenberg's supporters believe their prospects are dim once President-elect Donald Trump takes office, in part because Roy Cohn, once a lawyer for Trump, was a member of the Justice Department's prosecution team against the Rosenbergs.
"The ghost of Ethel Rosenberg is going to haunt the White House once Donald Trump takes office," Robert Meeropol said.
The Rosenbergs both maintained their innocence, though the Meeropols are requesting only Ethel's exoneration. The sons said that's because they believe their father was legally guilty of conspiracy to commit espionage, though they argue he didn't engage in atomic spying and shouldn't have been executed.
Ethel Rosenberg's supporters believe their cause was helped by the 2015 release of Greenglass' grand jury testimony, which a federal judge in New York unsealed after Greenglass' death in response to a request from historians and archivists.
That 1950 testimony conflicted with statements Greenglass made a year later during the couple's trial. He was indicted as a co-conspirator and served 10 years in prison.
Greenglass said he had given the Rosenbergs research data he had obtained while working as an Army machinist at the Los Alamos, New Mexico, headquarters of the top-secret Manhattan Project to build the atomic bomb. He said he recalled seeing his older sister transcribing handwritten notes to give to the Soviets on a portable typewriter at the Rosenbergs' New York apartment in 1945.
But the grand jury records show no mention of the typing and indicate he appeared to minimize his dealings with his sister.
Greenglass told the grand jury that Julius Rosenberg was adamant that he should continue with his Army service so he could "continue giving him information," but when asked whether his sister was similarly insistent, he replied, "I said before, and say it again, honestly, this is a fact: I never spoke to my sister about this at all."
Decades after the trial, Greenglass was quoted by a New York Times journalist as having admitted to testifying that his sister typed the notes in order to protect his wife.
In a May decision ordering the records unsealed, U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein noted that Greenglass said in his new statements that it was likely his wife, Ruth Greenglass, rather than Ethel Rosenberg, who typed up the notes.
The brothers were adopted following their parents' executions and changed their last name.

It must be a strange experience, being a central banker these days. Ever since the financial crisis of more than a decade ago, central banks have had to reconcile two opposing goals — both of them self-imposed.
Tag Archives: banks
Brexit will enrich the EU's financial industry
If Brexit does go ahead (and probably even if it does not), the European Union is ready to chip away at Britain's dominance in the financial sector. At least, that's what a recent speech by François Villeroy de Galhau, the governor of the Bank of France, suggests.
Libor manipulation suit could open the floodgates
The news that the US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is suing European banks in London for manipulating Libor should worry central bankers everywhere.
It's all hush-hush, with details coming from reports in newspapers, rather than made public officially. The Financial Times reported that the FDIC is suing Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Lloyds Banking Group, Royal Bank of Scotland, Rabobank and UBS, as well as the British Bankers' Association, accusing them of fraudulent misrepresentation.
Lloyds said it doesn't believe the claim has any merit, while the others did not comment, according to the report.
The real reason the Fed is hiking interest rates is scary
Some people wonder why the Federal Reserve is in such a hurry to raise interest rates, pointing out that growth in the world's first economy is hesitant at best. Inflation, of course, is an issue — even the stripped-down official version of inflation, "core" as they like to call it, is rising.
A research paper supports the idea of debt forgiveness
If you're like me, you've certainly wondered why economic growth has been so sluggish after the worst post-war recession — the Great Recession, or Great Financial Crisis as some have callednthe 2007-2009 crisis. Normally, the economy should have surged, after such a deep slump.
Instead, we're proud of economic growth figures around 2% in Britain and the US and cheer when the eurozone posts a meager GDP advance of above 1% almost a decade after the crisis.
UK house prices will hurt the economy even if they keep rising
Another trick to keep UK house prices rising is taking center stage: the extra-large mortgage. It's the mortgage lasting half a lifetime, or more, which allows you to buy a home even if, under normal circumstances, you would not afford it.
Is housing endangering banks in the UK, Sweden and Australia?
The news that Wells Fargo, the US bank that is the world's biggest lender by market value, targets millennials with its mortgage loans is seen as a sign that we've finally gotten over the crisis that nearly brought down the world economy in 2007-2009.
The Financial Times reported that the head of the bank's home finance business said he was keen to lend more to first-time buyers, who, the paper said, have so far "put off settling down."
But what is good for America is not necessarily good for the world. While in the US there has been some deleveraging and restructuring that allows the housing market to re-start from a cleaner basis, it is not the case in the rest of the world.
China's economy could be hit by three big problems
By Sourajit Aiyer
This article was originally published by Foreign Policy News USA.
Can the Chinese economic engine really be hit? It is undergoing a transformational change currently, from investment-driven to a consumption-driven one, but that would still enable it to run at a decent speed.
Here are three distinct themes that can severely hit the Chinese engine in the years to come:
New Basel rules mean buy-to-let mortgage interest rates will jump
Ahead of the Chancellor's Budget set to be published on March 16, there is a lot of speculation that he may announce other measures to cool down the buy-to-let property market. I don't think he will need to: the market will cool down pretty rapidly once the regulatory changes that are coming for banks are understood by buyers. Admittedly, that will take a while. This article is for those who want to stay ahead of the game.
Learn to love the Swedish housing price bubble
The issue of the runaway Swedish housing price bubble has been well known for a while, and the problem just keeps growing bigger. At this point, however, any attempt to tackle it could make things worse.

Intel has tapped some of the world's greatest athletes, including Michael Phelps and Tom Brady, to star in its ads, and the brand is at it again. Its latest spot from mcgarrybowen features LeBron James poking fun at the "crying LeBron James" meme.
In the ad, "Baby Face," the three-time NBA champ's face changes to that of a crying baby and then changes back to highlight Intel's 360-degree replay technology and the angles it captures. Intel released the Phelps spot hot off his performance at the Rio Olympics and debuted the Brady ad during the Super Bowl. The brand timed this one to launch on one of basketball's biggest stages, the NCAA Tournament's Final Four on Saturday.
"We compete in a performance-oriented category, so from a marketing standpoint, it's a great analogy to relate athletic performance and the world's best-performing athletes to technology performance," said Intel CMO Steve Fund. "It's an entertaining way to bring home the idea that [through Intel 360 technology] you can see things at angles that you haven't seen before."
Capitalizing on sports and pop-culture moments has paid off so far for Intel. The brand logged its best financial performance ever in the fourth quarter of 2016, according to Fund.
"Our ability to break through, persuade, connect with pop culture—all the metrics are moving in a positive direction," he said. "We feel really good about what we're doing and the impact on the business."

21 Jump Street Movie Trailer
21 Jump Street Trailer: Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum Go Undercover
The '80s series 21 Jump Street may have been a crime drama, but the big-screen version is most definitely a comedy — and a buddy comedy at that. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum play a pair of former high school rivals who become best buds during their police training. Life in the force isn't as badass as they were expecting, though — until they get called in to revive "an undercover police program from the '80s," in a very obvious nod to the original series. The guys are pulled back into the throes of high school, with a mission to bring down the dealers of the hottest new drug in town.
Hill is as hilarious as ever, and Tatum seems to be his perfect comedic foil — their background as the former high school bully and nerd is a nice touch. The film is also peppered with some of my favorite funny people, like Parks and Recreation's Nick Offerman, Rob Riggle, and Ellie Kemper from The Office. The film hits theaters next March, but watch the guys party with the best of 'em when you read more.

These 3 Women Share Why They Finally Proposed to Their Partners
It is still fairly uncommon for a woman to pop the question. And we all know why—we have been taught since the dawn of time that this is not the job of a lady. Except, we live in the 21st century and anything men do, women can do, too.We spoke to three ladies who took matters into their own hands and decided they should be the ones to put a ring on it.RELATED: Get Inspired on National Proposal Day with this Stunning Video of a Parisian Love Story
1. Morgane and Nicolas Lallevée, Viré, France
How they met: "Nicolas and I met a long time ago. We went to the same high school and he was actually my younger brother's classmate. But I wasn't interested in him at the time. We didn't start dating until a few years later when I bumped into him while visiting my school with a friend of mine."
Why she proposed: "After six years of dating (of which three we lived together), we both had stable jobs. We knew we wanted to get married, so we got engaged with no formal proposal. Just like that — no need to ask, we knew we wanted exactly the same things in life. We started wedding planning and even filed our taxes together.
But I ended up a bit frustrated not to have had a nice proposal in a fancy restaurant so, I decided I was going to propose to him to make things right. One can't marry without a proposal, right?"
The proposal: "I actually dragged one of his brothers to a jewelry store to find a ring for Nicolas. I booked a table at the restaurant where we had celebrated our engagement and had the box with the ring in my bag. I was going to wait for dessert to pop the question but just before dessert, I saw him taking out from nowhere the exact same box I had in my bag. It turned out that his brother had told him about my intentions and they had both gone to the same jewelry store to pick a ring for me. When I saw the box, I realized what was going to happen but I had already made up my mind—I was there to propose and I wasn't going to give up now. I fell on one knee (yes, I know, men usually do that... but, why not?) and asked him "Nicolas, veux-tu m'épouser?"* I think he mumbled the same thing to me.
So imagine us in that restaurant—I was on my knee, quite certainly red from head to toe, not hearing or understanding much (I was so nervous) holding his ring in my hand, and Nicolas sitting in his chair looking at me with my ring in his hand. We ended up saying 'oui' at the same time.
*Nicolas, will you marry me?
2. Marcie Bianco and Merryn Johns, New York City
How they met: "Merryn and I met in August, 2011, at the LGBT journalist convention in Philadelphia. We were on a panel together about Lesbian Media. After the panel, we chatted for a little while about academia—both our PhDs were about drama. That was the first and last time we spoke for about two years.
In 2013, she asked me to a show downtown. I remember leaving my apartment thinking, 'Something is going to happen with Merryn, tonight,' even though neither of us communicated the idea of our date actually being a date.
After the show, she took me out for oysters and champagne—très suggestive! As we clinked our flutes in cheers, I leaned over to give her a kiss on the cheek—I was just magnetically compelled toward her—and she grabbed my chin and said, 'No.' And then she planted one on me! It was such a hot moment. After the night was over, I knew she was the one."
Why she proposed: "I decided to propose to Merryn because I knew I wanted to spend my life with her, and I knew that I wanted that shared life—emerging as a kind of double-helix of our independent lives—to be deep and substantial. I wanted us to be legally recognized as a married couple, being recognized by all institutions and all people, as married.
I've known many lesbian couples to do timed joint proposals, where one woman proposes at one time and the other proposes at a later time. For us, I think we both always knew that I would propose—maybe it's because I am a double-Leo Italian who makes grand romantic pronouncements!"
The proposal: "I wanted to propose to Merryn on our anniversary while we were having dinner at an Australian restaurant in downtown New York City (she's Australian.) But we were having such a lovely conversation, eating kangaroo, and drinking delicious red wine, so the proposal didn't happen that night. It happened the next day, when Merryn sensed I was anxious about something, so I told her to sit down, because I had something to tell her. Thankfully she said yes!"
3. Anne Thomas and Ian Parker, Brooklyn, NY
How they met: "We worked at the same company for about a month but didn't get to know each other, and then he left. A few months later, he was back doing some freelance video work, and he interviewed me on camera for a recruiting video. That's when I first remember really meeting him."
Why she proposed: "His father was very ill for many months and he had been flying down to New Orleans a lot to spend time with him, so I wanted to take the burden off of him of proposing. I also had this thought that if we have children in the future, it would be cool to be able to tell them that I was the one who proposed and sort of set an example that you don't have to do something a certain way just because that's what everyone else does."
The proposal: "We watched this video called "If Girls Proposed to Guys" on YouTube together about a year before I proposed. The video portrays an alternate universe where women propose to men and instead engagement rings they buy lunch boxes. I thought it was pretty clever and wanted to somehow turn it into reality.
I was looking on eBay for vintage lunch boxes, but then I came across this beautiful hand-crafted Japanese bento box. I'm from Japan and I liked the idea of incorporating something Japanese into the proposal.
The day I proposed, I stayed home from work and cooked all day. When he walked in the door, the bento box was waiting for him on the kitchen counter and I had Huey Lewis and the News' 'Power of Love' blasting through the speakers (Back to the Future is one of his favorite movies).
He opened the bento box, which had two layers: the top layer had bites of lots of different things like karaage (Japanese fried chicken) and tamago yaki (a sort of Japanese omelette) and the bottom layer had rice with salmon roe laid out in the shape of a diamond. When he lifted the top layer and saw the salmon roe diamond. That's when I asked him if he wanted to do his taxes with me. He said yes and then we ate dinner and called our families to tell them the news.
I took this traditionally male act of proposing to your significant other, but did it through this traditionally female act of cooking for your significant other. That wasn't intentional — I just like food — but I like the irony of it."

Your luxury brand needs the best representation possible, and a great internet marketing agency can achieve this.
Search Engine Optimization
A common form of search engine marketing, search engine optimization involves optimizing text within your website, sometimes on the page text, and sometimes within the page tags embedded in-site. Identifying and utilizing the right keywords for your luxury brand increases the likelihood that your brand will be returned in search results by certain queries. Of course, search engine marketing increases brand exposure just because more people find out about your brand.
AMGW Agency provides search engine optimization services that elevate your luxury brand above the rest. As an expert SEO agency, our search engine marketing practices are tailored to your brand and its needs. When you use our services for SEO, you can expect greater traffic to your website and a growing audience base.
How Does AMGW Agency Put SEO to Work?
Our SEO experts target keywords that are frequently searched by customers in your industry or by your audience, and the internet marketing agency works the keywords into your text naturally. Every instance of a keyword falls into a sentence at a normal cadence, as the SEO company takes extra care to avoid creating unnatural text that poorly represents your brand. We also embed keywords into alt text, title tags and other elements of your website for best results.
The Benefits of Search Engine Optimization with AMGW Agency
- Search engine optimization is inexpensive. Compared to other internet marketing solutions, search engine marketing costs little and is relatively non-invasive, only requiring some minimal text overhaul that is largely superficial. AMGW Agency's SEO experts work quickly with little or no expensive downtime on your website.
- The returns are relatively large. AMGW Agency is one of many internet marketing agencies that endorse search engine marketing as a great way to increase new audiences with little investment. It's as simple as a potential customer searching a keyword or phrase related to your industry and coming up with the website for your luxury brand in return. When this happens hundreds, thousands or millions of times, it makes a significant impact on your audience size.
- Our SEO experts know what we're doing. As a leading internet marketing agency and SEO company in Miami, we are experts in our field. Experienced and professional, our SEO company does all the work for you.

With an entire professional marketing staff under each office roof, AMGW Agency is your one-stop shop for marketing and branding services.
International Internet Marketing
International Internet marketing targets huge audiences and is relatively simple, often utilizing banner ads, video and occasionally rich media such as expandable ads, homepage takeovers and flash animation. Internet marketing is often used in tandem with international social media to coordinate advertisement with users who are likely to act upon viewing the ad. AMGW Agency identifies the right type of internet marketing for your luxury brand by examining your target demographic and choosing ad spaces on websites and social media networks that your audience is likely to enjoy.
Web Design
At AMGW Agency, our professional web design services offer a quality reexamination of the way your current luxury brand website operates and an overhaul of the parts that need work. Our quality web design staff will review the parts of your website that work and redesign the parts that don't. Most website design companies don't come with an entire staff of media placement, branding and marketing staff, but AMGW Agency is an all-encompassing company, and our staff work under one roof to get your project done and your luxury branding represented the way it should be, web design and all.
AMGW Agency fully believes that a functional, intuitive website is the key to a good brand presence. A brand with all of its information online is transparent and honest, with all of the information available to your audience if they choose to view it. We will create a great website design that will act as a resource for your audience. If your brand has a social media presence, we can design quick access to international social media from your homepage interface to make connecting easy for fans of your luxury brand.
What Does AMGW Agency Offer as a Web Design Company?
Our marketing and branding focus means that your design project has a focus around brand development, which isn't a benefit you'd see from most website design companies. Unlike other website design companies, AMGW Agency can fix issues with your main branding at the same time as the website, instead of making the website new and leaving your brand incongruous everywhere else. The benefit of having an entire marketing staff on hand with a single project manager is significant. You only have to communicate with a single person, and an entire team handles your project to create a well-rounded website that accurately represents your brand.
Some of the benefits you will see include the following:
- Consulting before the project commences, to ensure that you have a clear picture of what you want.
- Brand development throughout the project to keep your brand and the website congruous and effective.
- Creative design to bring your vision to life. If you have grand ideas, our creative team will make them real in a way that complements the rest of your brand and avoids clashing.
- Graphic design to keep your website highly visual and executed with quality in terms of banners, background images, buttons and any other graphics that your site will require.
These are just a few of the main benefits that we offer as a web design company, and it is already much more than any other web design company would offer. All of the above will leave you with an effective, functional vision of a website. Our designs are considerate of your existing branding, but also consider ways to improve the brand and make it more appealing to the website audience, who will also likely be your consumer. The next step is web development, and AMGW Agency offers that step, too.
Web Development
Once we have a web design for your luxury brand, AMGW Agency will create a functional website for you through the development phase. From consulting to the finish line, your website is fully intuitive and customized around your brand. We offer brand site development, microsite development, e-commerce development, platform and technology development and even social app development.
A dedicated internet marketing agency, AMGW Agency improves your brand's exposure through measures such as search engine optimization, international social media and international Internet marketing.
AMGW Agency features a staff of professional website designers ready to meet your web development needs. Whether you need a major overhaul, a few tweaks or an entire website from scratch, we give you the development strategies that we have to represent your luxury brand most accurately. Our professional website designers have experience developing websites from the bottom up with as much or as little guidance as you prefer to give. Our web development resources are plentiful and we share our experience with every client who needs a website boost to represent a luxury brand.
What You Get with AMGW Agency
In addition to the professional website designers we have on staff, every AMGW Agency location features a full staff of marketing and branding professionals who are on call to address issues with branding that may come up in the development of your website. We do more than just web development—all websites that we develop receive careful consideration to branding, both on the website themselves and on how it compares to the luxury product branding. The brand needs to be congruous between the website and the product, and we ensure that this is the case.
The Web Development Process
All websites start with a consultation, but from there, the process depends on what you need as a client. Every step of the process takes your branding into consideration, and the major process is website development, of course. Depending on any sub-sites that you have, or on the function of your main website, you may want to take advantage of any extra development processes. Some of the other development processes that are available to you include:
- Brand-site development, which is always a consideration, but you can choose to have more emphasis on it if you wish
- E-commerce development, ideal if you sell your luxury products or services online and require additional development on your e-commerce pages
- Platform and technology consult, often necessary if your website requires a major overhaul or is being built from scratch
- Social app development, enabling connection between users or consumers of your brand, and building them a connection closer to your brand as well
These are just a few of the considerations that we consider integral to many websites in development for luxury branding. Your website may vary, and your combination of development services will largely depend on what you already have and what you need for further development. AMGW Agency is eager to lend our expertise to the job.

Top 5 Talking Points from 2013 #LSCon
What does the future hold for learning? In the second of a two-part blog reflecting on Learning Solutions Conference and Expo 2013 Unicorn CEO, Peter Phillips, looks at the five hottest conference issues - mobile, Tin Can, authoring tools, what's next for the LMS and could websites be the new LMSs? 1) Mobile is everywhere but not everything. Mobile was pervasive this year. It is now established as a core element in the mix of eLearning delivery and it is not going away. Increasingly with BYOD and remote working, users expect to be able to access learning away from their desk. The trend to mobile has been so rapid since the arrival of the tablet, that implications for design, authoring tools, delivery, security, the LMS and the death or otherwise of Flash are still raging and recurred throughout the sessions. There is general agreement that mobile JIT learning will be delivered in shorter bites, with more intuitive navigation, more video, less text, and of course no Flash. The browser v App debate seems to be moving towards the browser solution, at least for the corporate market, although if mobile is to truly transform learning for remote communities, offline will remain important for a long time yet. Does your LMS have plans for an off line Scorm player? Or should that be XAPI? See below..... Security is a big issue in the corporate world and I picked up some useful pointers, although no definitive answers. Some argued "create Apps to get round the corporate firewall issues" others that Apps are less secure as the content resides on the device. Better to access it through secure LMS login protocols. But then there is the issue of the security or otherwise of your local Starbucks Wifi connection (70%+ of tablets are wifi only). The most reassuring note here is that email on BYOD is a much bigger security issue than eLearning. Note to self, find out more about enterprise mobile security management systems like Mobile Iron and MAAS360 On a positive note, one certainty is that the eLearning community is going to have plenty of work for the foreseeable future updating and converting all that mobile-unfriendly legacy content. 2) Kick that Tin Can out – it's the Experience API now. The other unavoidable #lscon topic du jour was Tin Can. This new set of standards set to replace SCORM has not even been published yet but already it has a shiny new name and a nickname, XAPI for short. So what is it? XAPI is a standard for data transfer based on an Actor Verb Object syntax. So "Jackie ate this stack of pancakes". The new data is collected in a Learning Record Store (LRS) from where it can be accessed by your LMS (or the LRS may be part of the LMS). So far, so boring, so why all the excitement? Well, if I've got this right, the primary advantages over SCORM are that the standard is expected to be adopted for a wide range of activities in learning and beyond. As XAPI is taken up and evolves, so more verbs will be added. For our industry, as XAPI goes beyond SCORM tracking of eLearning to the potential tracking and reporting on a wide range of learning activities, so "Anna watched a video, read an article, attended a seminar, commented on a blog" etc. It opens the potential to create much broader learning journeys, and generate much richer MI from the data. YouTube, we were told, already has XAPI compatibility. In Neil Lasher's view, this brings eLearning and potentially the LMS into the BI space. It also creates new opportunities for instructional designers to think more about outcomes and analytics as part of the creative process. Authoring system vendors are ahead of LMS providers in embracing XAPI and are even creating new verbs already. In the Unicorn context, the potential for better recording and reporting the full range of CPD activities in regulated industries and professions is an obvious immediate application. 3) Have we become the Tools of our Tools? It is central to the #LScon event that it gives delegates the opportunity to catch up with the latest in eLearning tools, compare the alternatives, and preview what's coming next. This year didn't disappoint, and of course Joe Ganci was there to guide us through the maze, and provide some entertaining historical perspective on the evolution of authoring tools. There is no doubt that Storyline is the big hit of the past year and it continues to attract lots of attention and generally very positive feedback. The main competitor is Captivate 6.1, which interestingly is on most measures the better tool, but it is not so easy to use. That lesson – useability and simplicity before power and complexity – is marginal in this case, both are great tools, but it's a lesson that few LMS vendors have yet grasped. I was delighted to learn that iSpring7 with HTML5 publishing is launching this month. It is in my opinion the best of the Powerpoint based rapid tools, technically excellent, robust and simple too. The most interesting new arrivals are the web based tools, many of which are free, and including Smartbuilder for branching scenarios, and the quirky but impressive ZebraZapps. I've made a resolution to get our team looking more closely at these. The main message though is that when it comes to the tools, it is horses for courses. Developers need a toolkit and should not allow the choice of authoring tool to determine the ID but vice versa. 4) An alternative view On Friday morning I was lucky enough to select as my final breakout session one that turned all this attention on authoring tools on its head. Several of us left the session saying it was the best we had attended all week (although Yvonne Camus then went and topped it!). The speakers, Harley O'Brien and Abigail Wheeler, advocated that the approach to eLearning development should mirror that of the web at large. HTML5, CSS3 and jquery are at the heart of the web. Why not build e-learning experiences in the same architecture? The learning assets can each be created or access independently and integrated or accessed just as you would in designing a web site. They claim that this approach makes content updating much easier, is "mobile ready", and requires only easily learnable coding skills. This approach brings the seemingly separate world of eLearning, with its proprietary LMSs and focus on development tools, back into the much wider world of web development. "Work on the experience not how to deliver it", "think formats not tools" were two messages from this session. They also recommended the float learning blog 5) And the rest There was much more to assail the senses, including the informal connections, the vendor expo and the user showcase, and plenty of discussion on the future of the LMS which, despite rumours of its imminent demise three or four years ago, remains remarkably robust. The future of the LMS undoubtedly lies in moving from the monolithic "enterprise" model to smarter solutions that link seamlessly with other systems and services – HR, authoring tools, helpdesk, social platforms – and use the mash up potential of the web whether it is Google maps, Facebook Comments, or search engines that can search content repositories across the enterprise and beyond. The LMS will also unquestionably become more "intelligent", able to recommend learning to meet individual competence needs, with better reporting, XAPI records. Mobile is of course a given. So, to quote Yvonne Camus "Enthusiasm is a renewable resource", and this year's Learning Solutions certainly renewed my enthusiasm to face and help to shape an ever more exciting future of on line education.

7 Ways to Use Your New Favorite Dinner Ingredient: Chicken Thighs
Move over, chicken breasts; when it comes to saving money and adding flavor, it's all about the thighs. I love cooking with chicken thighs for their dark-meat qualities — they're juicy and bursting with flavor, just like these reader-favorite recipes.
Rigatoni with Chicken Thighs (pictured above)
Chicken thighs sizzling in a pan, along with onions and garlic, create a classic base for The Pioneer Woman's simple homemade pasta sauce, ready in 35 minutes.
Sheet Pan Honey-Mustard Chicken, Broccoli & Potatoes
You've heard of one-pot meals. This is a one-pan meal. Chicken thighs dripping in tangy honey-mustard sauce perch above a layer of red skinned potatoes with broccoli roasting nearby. The whole thing cooks at once — and the whole thing is amazing.
Curried Chicken and Rice Casserole
This treasure from Food Network Magazine is the full-meal deal with basmati rice, chopped spinach and hearty chickpeas baked with chunks of chicken in a savory curry sauce until golden.
5-Star Teriyaki Chicken Thighs
Using only a handful of ingredients, this marinade comes together in minutes. It's slathered over hearty chicken thighs before broiling to a crispy perfection — in under 10 minutes.
You'll never guess the secret ingredient for Food Network Magazine's impossibly crispy chicken cooked over the grill. (Hint: It rhymes with schmayonnaise.)
Slow-Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala
Make this recipe ahead of time, store it in a gallon-size zip-top bag and freeze the whole thing until the day you want to drop it into your slow cooker. That's where coconut milk meets up with tomato sauce, chicken thighs and curry to bubble together all day long.
Dirty P's Garlic Ginger Chicken Thighs
Fresh chunks of ginger and garlic combine with soy sauce and fresh tangerines in this Food Network Magazine recipe to make a mouthwatering marinade you may never forget.

Any comment on golf's newly adopted rule fourteen-dash-one-b governing the use of the long putter has to begin with the acknowledgement that the game, what remains of it, amid the rubble created by drivers the size of weather balloons and the fractious quarrels of Sergio Garcia, is very often subjected to vaporous hummings on moral intricacies and ancient bylaws by Oldest Members, who once they start talking cannot be stopped as they explore the interminable byways of what passes for controversy with an air of quiet golfy dignity, an attitude which they have currently applied to their appraisal of whether a bracing stance over a three-foot putt is honorable, and to which they have devoted 39 pages, with six sub-sections, and 24 sub-sub-points, written, we can only presume, by people with three-hyphen names.
Pause for throat-clearing.
To some, the controversial ruling by which the United States Golf Association and the Royal & Ancient have banned the "anchoring" of the long putter against any part of the body, whether the roiling stomach, the palpitating chest, or the defensively outthrust Garcian chin, is serious. To others more silly. We are on the side of silly, given that the ultimate arbiter of silliness in golf, P.G. Wodehouse, could have scripted the events of the past week. He once dedicated a book about the game "To the immortal memory of John Henrie and Pat Rogie who at Edinburgh in the year 1593 A.D. were imprisoned for 'playing of the gowff on the links of Leith every Sabbath the time of the Sermonses.'"
To Wodehouse's sportive eye, the anchored putter would seem less of an illegal tool or cause for scandalized sermonses than simply a farcical and unsightly expression of desperation, a cry for help from those too unsteady to take a free swing. The type of agonized golfer he described this way: "The least thing upset him on the links. He missed short putts because of the uproar of butterflies in the adjoining meadows."
He would no doubt regard Ernie Els, Webb Simpson and Adam Scott with their elbows splayed, and wonder how on earth adopting a position that looks like a man standing over a floor mirror admiring himself as he ties a bow tie while also buttoning his overcoat, unless it looks like he is about to plunge a toilet and sweep the bathroom floor at the same time, could be a help rather than a hindrance. To those who suggest the anchor stance allowed Simpson, Els and Scott to win major championships, he would suggest they have lost a lot more tournaments than they have won with it, and that other instruments have been far more distorting to the spirit of the game, among them Garcia's mouth. And in any event, in golf fate and mental self-sabotage have a tendency to sneak up on every player and hit him from behind "with the bit of lead piping."
Wodehouse would have probably cast the same sportive eye on the "feud" between Garcia and Tiger Woods, which until Monday consisted of a lot of half-suppressed golf discourtesies, including passive aggressive body language, pulling a club on a backswing, and not logging each other's cellphone numbers after playing a round together at the Players Championship. Garcia claimed Woods disrupted his play, and Woods disputed him and called Garica a chronic complainer. Which left Garcia in a state best described by perhaps Wodehouse's greatest line. "I could see that, if not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled."
Then Garcia departed from half-suppressed unpleasantries to unrestrained ones, calling Woods a chronic liar — "I know what he's like. You guys are finding out," he said — and snidely remarked he would invite Woods for dinner and serve "fried chicken." Now that sounded like nothing out of Wodehouse. To the contrary, it sounded just exactly like a racial slur.
Garcia tried to apologize for the remark by calling it "silly." But we are finding out what Garcia is really like: ignorant, and dagger-mean.
In response, Woods strove to restore a tone of golf gentility, all punctilious decorum on Twitter. "The comment that was made was not silly. It was wrong, hurtful and clearly inappropriate. . . . I'm confident that there is real regret that the comment was made." But this had a smack of the disingenuous too — next, you expected him to tweet, "What ho."
What would Wodehouse have made of all of this? A comedy of manners. And perhaps one of those "strange Scottish noises at the back of his throat like someone gargling." Especially if he happened to notice, while reading Woods's Twitter account, what Woods tweeted about just prior to the Garcia flaming. "Lots of you have been asking about the shoes I wore at The Players," Woods wrote. "Yes, they're new. More info to follow."
Which provoked one more race through the pages of Wodehouse.
"There are moments, Jeeves, when one asks oneself, 'Do trousers matter?' "
"The mood will pass, sir."

TERRITORIES Lyrics
Artist: Rush
Album: Power Windows
Words by Neil Peart, Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson
I see the Middle Kingdom between Heaven and Earth
Like the Chinese call the country of their birth
We all figure that our homes are set above
Other people than the ones we know and love
In every place with a name
They play the same territorial game
Hiding behind the lines
Sending up warning signs
The whole wide world
An endless universe
Yet we keep looking through
The eyeglass in reverse
Don't feed the people
But we feed the machines
Can't really feel
What international means
In different circles
We keep holding our ground
In different circles
We keep spinning round and round
We see so many tribes -- overrun and undermined
While their invaders dream of lands they've left behind
Better people -- better food -- and better beer
Why move around the world when Eden was so near?
The bosses get talking so tough
And if that wasn't evil enough
We get the drunken and passionate pride
Of the citizens along for the ride
They shoot without shame
In the name of a piece of dirt
For a change of accent
Or the colour of your shirt
Better the pride that resides
In a citizen of the world
Than the pride that divides
When a colourful rag is unfurled

Kevin Lagan has confirmed that he has entered into an agreement with Breedon Group plc to sell his materials business, Lagan Group, for £455 million on a cash and debt free basis.
The deal sees Breedon, the UK's largest independent construction materials group, acquiring Whitemountain, Lagan Cement, Lagan Brick, Lagan Asphalt and Welsh Slate. Lagan Homes does not form part of the sale.
Breedon has an established relationship with Lagan Group, having operated a successful joint venture with its Whitemountain business in Scotland. The combination of Breedon and Lagan's materials interests will create a workforce of circa 3,000 and turnover of more than £900m.
Lagan Group was formed in the 1960s on the outskirts of Belfast by Kevin's father, Peter Lagan, when he opened his first quarry at Whitemountain. Chairman Kevin Lagan has undoubtedly been the driving force behind the business for over 40 years, growing its turnover to £272 million, with combined earnings (EBITDA) of approximately £55 million in 2017.
Commenting on the announcement, Kevin Lagan said, "Our committed and passionate staff at Lagan Group have contributed significantly to the development and growth of the business, differentiating us from our competition in all of the markets in which we operate. I'd like to thank the staff for the role they have played in the growth of Lagan Group, and I wish them every success as they enter an exciting new chapter with Breedon, who I am confident will build on that success, supporting the development of the business in the years ahead".
Following the disposal of the substantial materials business to Breedon, Kevin and his family intend to pursue a managed growth strategy with the Lagan Homes and FastHouse businesses, which are being retained.
Lagan Homes, one of the largest housebuilders in Northern Ireland, with a longstanding reputation for delivering quality homes, has plans to develop its markets in Ireland and in Great Britain, where it has established a strong regional presence. For the year ended 31 December 2017, the overall Lagan Homes business, a substantial element of which sits outside Lagan Group, posted total turnover of around £76 million, with combined profit before tax coming in at approximately £10 million.
Kevin Lagan is also the majority shareholder in LF FastHouse, an innovative manufacturer of modular closed panel and timber frame systems for the construction industry, which employs around 100 people at its state of the art factory. FastHouse aims to deliver fast, efficient, cost-effective housing solutions manufactured off-site, supporting demand in Ireland, the UK and internationally. It is currently supplying around 470 luxury holiday lodges to Ireland's first-ever CenterParcs resort in County Longford.

Who Is Ja'mie?
Get to Know Ja'mie: Private School Girl
Ja'mie: Private School Girl premieres this weekend on HBO, and in case you haven't had the pleasure yet, allow me to introduce you. Ja'mie is the creation of Australian comedian Chris Lilley, and she's essentially an over-the-top Australian mean girl. He first introduced her in 2007 on his show Summer Heights High, which profiles various students and a teacher (all played by Lilley) at a fictional high school. Ja'mie begins as a recent transfer to Summer Heights High, having agreed to spend a semester away from her private academy and in the trenches of a public school. Now, she's back in her own element and with her very own show. Before the premiere on Sunday, here's a quick tutorial on who exactly Ja'mie is.
She's appropriately wary of others.
She's always there for her friends.
She just wants people to feel good about themselves, you know?
Get to know Ja'mie better after the jump.
She's a problem-solver.
She's a wicked-good dancer.
But she's not, like, an attention whore or anything.
In fact, she's actually really humble.
Above all, she cares about the world.
She's accepting of all cultures and races.
But, like, really, take a look at your roots.
In short:
