From Buiter’s paper: “It has not always been clear whether the Fed actually targets core inflation or whether it targets headline inflation in the medium term and treats core inflation as the best predictor of medium-term inflation.” As luck would have it, our boss (Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta President Dennis Lockhart) had a few words to say on exactly that topic yesterday: “Att

Kenya’s present Vice President Kalonzo Musykoa is one politician that is often underrated owing to his unique way of conducting himself. The humble man of God from Tseikuru has been called many names but he continues with the resolve only known for those with unadulterated ambition couched with a vision.

Languages are interesting because each one has its own unique features. For example, double negatives like “I didn’t see nothing” are considered incorrect in English, although they’re perfectly permissible in Spanish. If you’ve watched some anime in Japanese or had dinner with a Japanese family, you may have noticed the word that’s spoken before eating, itadakimasu. Essentially meaning “I humbly receive the gift of this food” or less obsessively “let’s eat,” it’s a polite way to thank the perCharacter Sketches
