In mid-October 2008, even as the Reserve Bank was dousing the system with rupee and forex liquidity, Finance Minister (P) Chidambaram had suo moto constituted a committee on liquidity management, with Finance Secretary Arun Ramanathan as the chairman. The Reserve Bank was asked to nominate a representative on the committee. I was annoyed and upset by this decision. Chidambaram had clearly overstepped into the RBI turf as liquidity management is a quintessential central bank function. Not only did he not consult me, but he had not even informed me of this before the notification was issued. Coming as it did amidst a lot of suspicion in those early weeks of my tenure that I was a government lackey sent to the Reserve Bank to act at the government’s bidding, the constitution of this committee only reinforced the view.
I called up Chidambaram and let him know in unequivocal terms that his action was totally inappropriate, and requested firmly that he dissolve the committee. His argument was that when liquidity management was such a central concern, getting advice from external market participants would help us understand and respond to the ground reality in the market faster and better. I granted that, but if he wanted external experience to be tapped, he could have advised me informally to constitute such a committee rather than taking the Reserve Bank for granted. The call ended with my telling him that the Reserve Bank would not participate in the committee. This skirmish with Chidambaram, who I believed pushed my candidature for the governor’s job, so early in my tenure upset me a lot. Little did I know that this set the tone for what would be an uneasy relationship between us in the last year of my term.
There was constant and decidedly unhelpful friction between the ministry of finance, under both Pranab Mukherjee and later Chidambaram, and the Reserve Bank on what the government saw as the Reserve Bank’s unduly hawkish stance on interest rates, totally unmindful of growth concerns. The distilled version of their argument went as follows. All the government’s efforts to kickstart the supply response in the economy were being stymied by the high-interest regime of the Reserve Bank. If only the Reserve Bank relaxed on the interest rate, investment would take off and launch the economy into a virtuous cycle of increasing growth and declining inflation.
When Chidambaram was asked in a media interaction in July 2013 why he was frustrated with the Reserve Bank when all it was doing was pursuing its mandate of price stability, he admitted that the Reserve Bank’s mandate was indeed price stability but that ‘mandate must be understood as part of a larger mandate of promoting growth’. The clear implication was that the Reserve Bank was mistaken in interpreting its mandate.
I believe both Pranab Mukherjee and Chidambaram had erred in seeing the Reserve Bank as being fixated on inflation, unmindful of growth concerns. On the contrary, the Reserve Bank interprets its mandate exactly as Chidambaram had said, although not as he implied. The Reserve Bank was targeting price stability precisely because it is a necessary condition for sustained growth….
The burden of my argument both in the public domain as well as internally to the government was that the Reserve Bank was running a tight monetary policy not because it did not care for growth but because it did care for growth. But the government remained unpersuaded or chose to be unpersuaded.
In order to defend his position vis-a-vis the Reserve Bank and possibly to sound a conciliatory note, in a media conference in July 2013, Chidambaram had generalized this divide between governments and central banks by saying that ‘governments are for growth and central banks are for price stability’. This stereotyping was misinformed not only with reference to India but even from a broader experience….
Although the high-interest-rate regime would be the main area of difference between the government and the Reserve Bank, there were other issues that stoked the friction even deeper.
One such issue which was almost always a point of contention in my pre-policy meeting with the finance minister was the estimate for growth that the Reserve Bank would be putting out in its policy document. The government’s pet peeve was that the Reserve Bank was being too cynical in its forecasts. Either the secretary of economic affairs or the chief economic adviser (CEA) would contest our estimate with their assumptions and estimates which I thought were par for the course. What used to irritate me, though, was that almost seamlessly the discussion would move from objective arguments to subjective considerations, with one of the senior officers suggesting that the Reserve Bank must project a higher growth rate and a lower inflation rate in order to share responsibility with the government for ‘shoring up sentiment’. Finance Secretary Arvind Mayaram went to the extent of saying in one meeting that ‘whereas everywhere else in the world, governments and central banks are cooperating, here in India the Reserve Bank is being very recalcitrant’.
I was invariably discomfited and annoyed by these objections and insinuations. I was also often dismayed that the ministry of finance would seek a higher estimate for growth while simultaneously arguing for a softer stance on interest rate without seeing the obvious inconsistency between these two demands. I used to take a consistent and firm position that the Reserve Bank cannot deviate from its best professional judgement just to doctor public sentiment….
Another constant source of friction used to be the position taken by the Reserve Bank on the government’s fiscal stance. The government’s large fiscal deficit was one of the prime drivers of inflation, and its inability to roll back expenditure undermined the Reserve Bank’s anti-inflation stance. There was no way the Reserve Bank could tell a credible inflation story without pointing this out. The finance ministry used to be irritated by the Reserve Bank making an issue out of its fiscal stance, and Pranab Mukherjee was always miffed about it; he clearly showed it even though he never said anything. But for me, skirting around this issue was neither appropriate nor advisable.
It was my standard practice to apprise the prime minister too of our statement on the government’s fiscal stance. He understood the economic logic but always seemed uncomfortable with the Reserve Bank pointing it out. He never intervened directly with me, but in early 2012, he told Rangarajan, the chairman of his Economic Advisory Council and my former boss when I was secretary to the council, to convey to me that he did not expect Subbarao, ‘who was finance secretary in the government and understood its political compulsions’ to take such a strident stand on the fiscal stance. I certainly had sympathy for this point of view but was unwilling and unable to show any accommodation….
There is a price to pay, of course, for not falling in line. The government has several ways of showing its displeasure, and the way it chose to do so with me was by going against my recommendations in the reappointment of deputy governors in the Bank.
As the head of the Reserve Bank, enjoined with a public responsibility, the governor should have the privilege of selecting his team just as the prime minister has the prerogative of choosing his Cabinet. There is no question, of course, that under law, it is the government that has the authority to appoint the governor and deputy governors of the Reserve Bank. There are rules about eligibility and tenure, which have to be complied with, and the system of selection has to be fair, transparent and contestable. Within that framework, a healthy convention should be to defer to the governor’s recommendation on the appointment of deputy governors. That privilege was denied to me.
R Gopalan, called one evening to say that the finance minister had approved the constitution of a committee to select Usha’s successor. I was pained that even if the government had decided to deviate from the standard practice of consulting the governor on the reappointment of an incumbent, they had not even told me about it before constituting a selection committee. There was speculation that Pranab Mukherjee was irked by some regulatory decision taken on Usha’s watch which, of course, came on top of his general unhappiness with me.
I sought a meeting with Pranab Mukherjee — incidentally one of only two occasions when I met him one-on-one — and requested that Usha be reappointed because of her competence, track record and because she met the eligibility criteria for reappointment. He knew that he could not call into question Usha’s competence or track record; it would have been presumptuous on his part to override my judgement on this issue with his own. He pleaded rules instead, but I was prepared for that point. I told him that the government had reappointed Shyamala Gopinath, another deputy governor, an identical case, under the same rule, and added for effect that he was the finance minister who had approved it. He didn’t budge and Usha became a part of the price we had to pay for asserting the autonomy of the Reserve Bank.
We had a replay of the same story in the case of reappointment of Subir Gokarn whose three-year tenure as deputy governor was expiring in December 2012. By this time, Chidambaram had returned as finance minister. As early as in August 2012, I requested Chidambaram to reappoint Subir for two more years and told him and that I would send a formal recommendation accordingly. I reiterated the request in October 2012. Chidambaram was clearly disinclined to accede.
The reason he gave was that all of us who entered the Reserve Bank laterally had become hostage to the technocrats in the Reserve Bank and the government felt it necessary to bring some fresh thinking into the Reserve Bank. He was firm that we should go through a de novo selection process.
I reminded him that according to the rules framed by none other than him, Subir was eligible for reappointment; the question of opening up the position to other candidates would arise only if Subir was not recommended by the governor, which obviously was not the case. Chidambaram did not budge and insisted that we go through a process of selection. He agreed though that Subir could be considered by the selection committee along with other candidates.
The selection committee, under my chairmanship, went through the due process and agreed on a panel of three candidates, with Subir Gokarn at the top of the list. A couple of days later, P K Misra, secretary of the Department of Personnel, who was also a member of the selection committee, called me up to say that the minutes had to be redrafted since the rules did not allow for the committee to rank candidates in order of preference. I was surprised because he, as the ‘minder of rules’, had not said so when we met in the committee. I told him that I could not agree to the redrafting of the minutes through a bilateral, oral arrangement and that we should follow the due process. He should write to me explaining the rule position, then we should reconvene the committee to review the decision, and if agreed, dispense with the ranking. I did not hear from him again on this.
Subir’s tenure was coming to an end on 31 December 2012. But even after Christmas, there was no news from the government. I was hoping that since his name was on top of the list, the finance minister would, even if reluctantly, acquiesce. We had a farewell function planned on 31 December to bid farewell to a couple of senior officers who were superannuating that day. My staff asked if we should cover Subir too under this farewell. I said ‘no’ in the hope that the reappointment would come through literally even at the eleventh hour. In the event, I underestimated Chidambaram’s desire to bring ‘fresh thinking’ into the Reserve Bank. Later that afternoon, we got the news that Subir’s appointment was not being renewed.
Another mischievous, if also clumsy, attempt by the government to assault the autonomy of the Reserve Bank came by way of appointing the directors on the central board of the Bank. As per law, it is the government’s prerogative to appoint the directors but the law also guarantees the directors so appointed a four-year term. In other words, the government cannot recall any director at will during the four-year tenure. Presumably, the intent behind this provision was to ensure that the directors acted independently without any threat of the government ‘showing its displeasure’ by terminating their appointment.

Rose from Vampire Academy dates Adrian and Dimitri. Sydney from Bloodlines dates another guy before she dates Adrian. I loved that these girls had more than one relationship, even if it mightn’t have been ‘love’.
Ah, that’s right! Thanks, Nemo, I had forgotten about those. And I agree, it really was a breath of fresh air to have them have more than one relationship.
Interestingly, I’d love to read more books with different love interests as well, not just the “first love” kind. I agree that it’s a bit more realistic, and it hasn’t been used much in books. Great post, Claudia!
en @Jack, Mijn opmerking was bedoeld ter verduidelijking en zeker niet als aanval. Fijn voor Henk dat Jack het voor hem opneemt, heeft Henk helemaal niet nodig, zijn roem is wat mij betreft wijd en zijd bekend en ook door mij gewaardeerd.Als medebestuurder van de zesde stad van het land vind ik dat er een stadscampagne behoort te zijn en dat de T in zijn soort de slechtste niet is.
When the producers of the CSI series hear about this, they will start filming a show using this technique next week.This will drive prosecutors crazy all over the country when juries expect to see test results in the court room that they’ve seen on TV.
I’m 34 years old and every time I’ve come across a love story in YA Fiction (which is ALL THE DAMN TIME) I’ve often wondered out loud: “but these people are, like, 18 years old!! They’re going to have MANY MORE romantic partners – not just this ONE.” In this respect, YA relationships are so unrealistic it’s laughable.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who sees it! I do know of people who’ve married their first loves and kudos to them, but I don’t think it’s as common as YA makes it appear, you know?
You’re so right! I can’t really think of any other series that has more than one love interest, that’s not a love triangle. I remember finding it so jarring that ToG had more than one, and I mourned the loss of the first love interest until his personality changed I started to dislike him as a character. But I found it so refreshing that their love was real and wasn’t tainted as fake etc.
But when it’s done right it’s so amazing and it really could add to the story!
This is really interesting! I mean, not all of us is going to find our “soulmate” in our teenage years. Most of us take years, tons of tears and heartbreak before finding the right one. And I do want to see them portrayed in books. But on the other note.. Not all books actually, explicitly said that the love interest is the one. We only know that the characters feel that way and as the book ends, they live happily ever after. But that doesn’t mean that they’re with each other… right? They might’ve broke up at some point in the not important future after the book ends.. who knows..
So I just found your blog and I am so in love with this space! I clicked on this post because it’s something I totally agree with. The thing I loved about ACOTAR and ToG is how there are more than one love interest, and the heroines end up with different people as their character grows – something that is far more realistic than having a “boy meets girl and they live happily ever after” story. Basically I’m tired of books being fairy tale stories. I want something that I can relate to and that won’t give me a headache from eye rolling (even though I happen to be one of the few who found The one in my first one). I appreciate and understand that it’s not everyone’s reality and I’d like the books I read to reflect this. Otherwise it just comes across as being naive.

Just and unjust step we onwards, wise men.
Umbra, sure we’re ever fallen again.
Each footprint, our ellipsis dogged by fear.

Hold steady in the killing cold of sin.
Impenetrable shade of our error.

Prescription drug abuse in the United States is at an all-time high. More Americans die as a result of overdose than from motor vehicle accidents. Prescription drugs are causing a significant increase in heroin abuse, addiction and overdose. Young adults in this country through pill parties, where they steal prescription medications from their family medicine cabinets. Large punch bowls are filled with unknown pills and are taken with reckless abandon. Prescription drugs should never be taken over an extended period of time and yet they are consistently abused for extended periods. People suffering from various ailments should look for alternative methods treating those issues, rather than using prescription medications for long periods of time.
Insomnia is a major issue with Americans. Zolpidem is a medication that is normally prescribed to those who are suffering from insomnia. When people are over-worked and the feeling of stress, anxiety, or depression is unrelenting they can have difficulty sleeping. Normal ‘healthy’ can also have difficulty sleeping. When falling or staying asleep is a problem that begins to affect how people perform during the day they may turn to external help. Ambien is a short-acting, non-benzodiazepine hypnotic drug that is used to help initiate and maintain sleep. The practice of turning to prescription drugs for help is a growing issue in the United States; which is the most over-prescribed nation in the world. Ambien is the brand name for zolpidem tartrate. This is a sedative that is prescribed to treat insomnia; other brand names include Edluar, Intermezzo, ad ZolpiMist. When this drug is taken as prescribed by a doctor the drug can help those suffering from insomnia, but it can also cause undesired effects; especially in those who abuse the drug.
The drug Zolpidem has gained popularity in recent years because it is considered safer than the previously prescribed drug Valium. Diazepam, also known as Valium, is a benzodiazepine. The drug is used for panic attacks, anxiety, insomnia, vertigo, tetanus, sedation, status epilepticus, oxygen toxicity, and stimulant overdose. Diazepam is incredibly addicting. The drug can lead to impaired reflexes, drowsiness, and confusion. Overdose on the drug can lead to a coma. Ambien does not have the same increased percentage of abuse and dependence. Although, this drug should never be used for an extended period of time. Like any other prescription drug, prolonged use of Ambien has high probability of causing dependence and abuse. This drug can become habit forming when it is taken over a long-term period of time; even if taken as prescribed by a physician.
initial doses of the drug in 2013. This was an effort to reduce the chance of next day drowsiness, especially for those taking the extended release formulations of the drug. It also warned patients to not drive or undertake dangerous jobs like operating heavy machinery.
Overdose from prescription drugs is a rapidly growing concern for Americans. The rate of which prescription drugs are used and abused has led to a serious increase in prescription drug related injury, overdose, and even death. Drugs like Zolpidem are part of the growing problem with prescription drug overdose. Overdose can be accidental or this drug can be used for suicide. Overdose is possible when individuals attempt to achieve a larger, more intense, and high by increasing dosage. It is more common to overdose on Ambien when these drugs are taken in conjunction with other substances like alcohol or other intoxicants. Individuals have experienced short-term memory loss may forget about a previous dose taken and consume more of the medication, which can lead to overdose. Symptoms of Ambien overdose include: excessive drowsiness, dangerously slowed breathing, bradycardia, or coma.
Convulsions or seizures are possible for those who severely abuse the drug. In this case, medical assistance is needed immediately. Due to the extreme nature of some withdrawal symptoms it is recommended to seek professional help.
In a national survey taken in 2013 by the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, more than 250,000 Americans admitted to abusing Ambien or other similar sedatives. The amount of emergency-room visits as a result of sedative misuse rose from 6,111 in 2005 to over 19,000 in 2010. Over 60% of all Zolpidem-related emergency room visits are women. Nearly 75% of those treated for sedative related issues are over 45. Over half of the hospital required visits related to sedatives are a result of mixing the drugs with narcotic analgesics and other sleeping or anti-anxiety medications.
If you or someone you know could have an addiction to Ambien it is important to seek professional help. Ambien treatment includes both in and outpatient programs. Addicts are not recommended to try to quit or radically reduce taking the drug on their own without professional help because of the dangerous side effects of withdrawal. Treatment for Ambien, like other drugs, requires a multi-faceted approach that looks at both the physical and mental damages from the drug. It is imperative that a treatment program address possible underlying mental disorders that caused or were an outcome of abuse. The best way to seek treatment is to speak with an addiction professional for help.

Travelers held off on booking cruises to the Caribbean in the aftermath of the 2017 hurricanes. One big question is how many of them will want to risk sailing during this year’s hurricane season — and at what prices.
Last year’s hyperactive hurricane season is still proving a drag for the cruise industry.
Carnival Corp. executives said Thursday that cruise bookings for the full year in the Caribbean are slightly behind where they were a year ago at lower prices. That relative weakness is due to lower demand for eastern Caribbean itineraries and especially sailings out of San Juan, Puerto Rico. The western Caribbean is experiencing higher demand at higher prices.
The region was one of the few negatives in an otherwise upbeat earnings call. Carnival Corp., the world’s largest cruise company with nine brands and more than 100 ships, saw revenue for the quarter ending Feb. 28 increase from $3.8 billion in 2017 to $4.2 billion this year. Profit rose from $352 million to $391 million year-over-year.
Still, shares closed down a little more than a percent at $66.19 on a day that saw the New York Stock Exchange, on which Carnival is listed, fall by more than 2 percent. Shares of competitors Royal Caribbean Cruises and Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings also dipped as major indexes plunged on fears of a possible trade war with China.
Executives said the busy cruise planning months known as “wave season” at the beginning of the year delivered strong bookings. And excluding China, where the company is shifting its method of distribution in a way that will see sailings booked later, global cumulative bookings are ahead of the previous year at higher prices.
The problem in the eastern Caribbean dates back to late last summer, when Hurricane Irma and Hurricane Maria caused significant damage to popular cruise destinations including the U.S. Virgin Islands, Turks and Caicos, and Puerto Rico. Bookings for the first quarter of 2018 were already made by then, but demand fell off for the later parts of the year in the weeks surrounding the storms and during the recovery in the later part of 2017.
“There seems to be this panic right now kind of out there in the investment community that the summer Caribbean pricing is deteriorating,” Stifel analyst Steven Wieczynski said during the call. He asked if that might be due to any extensive discounting on the part of competitors; Carnival and other major players have been sticking to a “price integrity” policy by not slashing fares close to the date of voyages, even at the risk of sailing with empty cabins.
Donald said San Juan, where Carnival Cruise Line bases one ship, is “much more of a drag” than the rest of the Eastern Caribbean at the moment. About 16 percent of the company’s capacity is sailing in the eastern part of the region for the remainder of the year, with the Caribbean overall representing 28 percent of capacity. Carnival operates brands including Carnival Cruise Line, Princess Cruises, Holland America Line, Seabourn, Cunard, Costa Cruises, and other European brands.
Bernstein noted that Puerto Rico is not only a destination but also a source market for the ship that sails from San Juan.
Donald insisted that the outlook isn’t bad for the eastern Caribbean, noting that the market is still strong on top of a record year.
Morningstar analyst Jaime Katz wrote in a note to investors that she believes Carnival is “positioned well” for increasing profitability this year.

Harley, I love you and I am so glad you came home.
It started out a great day, despite the snow, because Harley, who was missing for almost 2 days, was home. This dog is my best loyal protector. He is highway savvy and watches when he crosses the road and seldom does he anyhow. He chases the neighbour's dogs back home as far as the highway and comes back, but he has many scars and sore spots from fighting with the Rottweiler, German Shepherd and the Rottie cross that live across the highway. He also chases the coyotes away. I would hate to lose him and was so grateful to see him this morning.
Dumb clucks can't find their food because it snowed on it.
And if you have ever wondered where the term 'bird brain' came from, take a look at this. The snow has covered the food in the chicken's pen and they cannot find it. This has happened before. If something, food or water included, gets covered by snow, the chickens have no clue where it has gone. Bird brains!
The snow was odd today. It was below zero, yet icicles formed on Lucy Llama's coat and were frozen rivulets going down her sides. She has not yet been shorn this year, thank goodness. Who knew it would be so cold for so long?
Lucy is decorated with crystal bangles.
People who have not had sheep, goats or llamas around here have no clue how to feed them. Their "premium" alfalfa hay, which cost me 90 dollars a bale, delivered, is useless here. The sticks and straws are all left and these animals only pick out the leaves if they can. What a waste!
