  • Mortgages, Housing and Monetary Policy – What Lies Ahead?
    Mortgages, housing and monetary policy – what lies ahead? Speech given by David Miles, External Member of the Monetary Policy Committee, Bank of England To the Northern Housing Consortium, York Racecourse 22 November 2011 I would like to thank Jochen Schanz and Arpad Moritz for research assistance, and others for helpful comments. The views expressed are my own and do not necessarily reflect those of the Bank of England or other members of the Monetary Policy Committee. All speeches are available online at www.bankofengland.co.uk/publications/speeches 1 Introduction Many years ago I wrote a book with the less than memorable title: “Housing, Financial Markets and the Wider Economy”. It would be a lie to say that it is available in all good bookshops. It would be more accurate to say that it might now be found in one or two second-hand book shops – though I do not know where they are1. That book had one line in it that I still rather like. It happens to be the first line of the book and one of the shorter sentences in it. And – unlike most of the rest of the book – it does not have equations or mathematical symbols. It is: “Few people are nomads by choice” The rest of the book could not keep up that degree of succinctness. The short, opening sentence expresses something important about our preferences: most people put great value on having a home that they can reliably call home for many years. This is one reason why the majority of people want to own their home.

By Scott McGee | 19 December 2018 The biggest names in the industry give their predictions for what lies ahead in the next 12 months Peter Blanc, group chief executive, Aston Lark In 2019 the insurance market can expect to see the market taking action on dual pricing by adopting the joint principles proposed by BIBA and the ABI. Will it be enough to prevent regulatory intervention though, with all the unintended consequences that could result? The market could also see another unrated insurer collapse - will professional brokers turn away from under capitalised insurers once and for all? Brexit may or may not happen and there may or may not be dramatic consequences for U.K. brokers - watch this space. Aston Lark will continue to make acquisitions and grow to become the UK’s most trusted Chartered Insurance Broker - couldn’t resist that one! Lee Watts, head of technical claims, Allianz Insurance From a claims perspective, the year ahead presents many challenges and opportunities in respect of legal reforms and regulation; we hope the outcomes of which bring a positive impact to both our customers and the industry. https://www.insurancetimes.co.uk/analysis/december-2018-big-question-what-is-coming-in-2019/1428865.article 1/21 19/12/2018 December 2018 Big Question: What is coming in 2019? | Ask the Expert | Insurance Times Following the nal legislative hurdle, implementation of The Civil Liability Bill and the regulations around it should help to tackle the compensation culture in whiplash claims whilst revisions to the discount rate will hopefully provide a fairer framework and create more certainty for seriously injured claimants.

  • Philippians IX. Faith, Hope, and Love Philippians 3:12-16
    July 18, 2021 A Letter from Paul – Philippians IX. Faith, Hope, and Love Philippians 3:12-16 Dr. William P. Seel Easley Presbyterian Church Easley, South Carolina Our passage can be seen as a summary of sorts regarding pretty much everything Paul has said in his letter thus far. “Not that I have already obtained this,” he begins – the “this” referring not only what he said last week about gaining Christ and being found in Him1, but also to what he said in chapter two about how we are to have the same mind that was in Christ Jesus, who took the form of a servant and so forth2. “Not that I have already obtained this . but I press on to make it my own” he writes – the “pressing on” referring back to what he told the Philippians in chapter one about their manner of life becoming worthy of the gospel of Christ3, and also back to what he said in chapter two about the necessity of working out our salvation “with fear and trembling”4. “Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own.” But as much summary as Paul is packing into that introductory sentence, it’s what Paul says next which is the meat of this passage for us this morning. Paul explains what he means by “pressing on to make it my own” – or, more specifically, describes what this looks like and how it is accomplished in the life of a disciple of Jesus. And it’s all there in verses 13-14: “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own.

  • Juba Good Vicki Delany
    READING GUIDE JUBA GOOD VICKI DELANY Reading level: 3.0 Interest level: Adult Themes: crime, mystery, Africa, murder, serial killer, RCMP, United Nations, foreign aid 978-1-4598-0490-6 pb Summary RCMP officer Ray Robertson is nearing the end of his year-long term in South Sudan, where he has been working with the UN to train and advise the new country’s police force. He is looking forward to finishing his term and connecting back up with his wife, Jenny, to enjoy a vacation together in Kenya before heading back to his home in Vancouver. Two weeks before his departure, Robertson stumbles into a string of murders that he ultimately insists on solving before he leaves the country. The victims are all female prostitutes, strangled to death with the killer’s trademark white ribbon and dumped on a residential street. As the book gets underway, Robertson is investigating the fourth such murder, accompanied by his trusted partner, John Deng, a native of the Dinka tribe in Africa. Deng is tight-lipped about his own family; Robertson assumes they were killed during Sudan’s long civil war. Deng and Robertson set out to get to the bottom of the murders in a place where the citizens have seen so much darkness and hatred that it’s difficult to establish a trusting relationship—especially with the police. A moral man by nature, Robertson nevertheless has to bend rules to get his questions answered. He encounters a number of dead ends along the way, but his determination to see at least a little bit of justice done before he leaves for Canada fuels his refusal to give up.

  • What Lies Ahead (1-3-16)
    “A Preview of Coming Attractions”! Mark 13:1-4! I find it hard to believe that we are beginning another year. If you are like me, then you will agree that 2015 seemed to go by in a flash. I know that time doesn't speed up or slow down, but it sure feels like it goes by faster the longer that you live. Couple this with the technology and smart devices that we are constantly using, and time gets away from you before you know it. For many of us, a new year brings excitement and challenge. It is an opportunity to start over, to get around to doing some things that you've been putting off. When January rolls around, none of us know what the year will hold for us by the time that December gets here once again. There is an element of uncertainty about the future, for none of us truly knows what lies ahead.! In general, Americans are very interested when it comes to knowing the future. I read where Americans spend nearly a billion dollars annually on consulting psychics, horoscopes, and palm readers. Man has always thought he can predict the future, and has tried his best. In 1870, there was a bishop who came to an Indiana college campus for a denominational conference. During his visit, the bishop heard the president of the college say something that shocked him. “We live in an age of wonders,” said the head of the college. “I believe the day is not far off when men will fly in the skies like birds.” The bishop said, “Sir, you are speaking blasphemy! The Bible tells us that the gift of flight is reserved strictly for the angels.” The bishop’s name was Milton Wright who just so happened to have two sons by the name of Orville and Wilbur.

  • What Lies Ahead for Israelis and Palestinians?
    What lies ahead for Israelis and Palestinians? Reflections on the Camp David 2000 Summit and the 2020 ‘Deal of the Century.’ By Gilead Sher and Ze'ev Portner/ July 9, 2020 In January 2001, just three days before he was about to leave office, former president Bill Clinton received a farewell phone call from the then chairman of the PLO, Yasser Arafat. Arafat flattered “you are a great man.” Clinton did not mince his words, “The hell I am. I am a colossal failure, and you made me one.” Clinton was referring to the Camp David peace talks of July 2000 held under his administration’s auspices, and the subsequent Clinton Parameters in which he expended so much effort, energy, and time. King Abdullah II of Jordan has written that “Prime Minister Ehud Barak showed great courage” at Camp David in terms of the steps he was prepared to take to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and put a finality to the respective claims. The problem was that this was never reciprocated on the Palestinian side; the only person who could take things forward, Arafat, failed to cross the Rubicon from leading a national movement to statesmanship. Arafat undermined his own negotiators’ positions at Camp David, with his consistent no to any of the American proposals put to him – not even willing to discuss them as a basis for negotiations. As Clinton told him at the time, Arafat was making an error on the scale of 1947 when the Palestinians had rejected the partition plan and the creation of an Arab state next to a Jewish one.

  • Fall Exhibitions Education Performance Live Talks
    EXHIBITIONS EDUCATION PERFORMANCE 2020 FALL LIVE TALKS 1998, pastel. Photo courtesy of the artist. Days of the Dead: Aztec Adventures Cholo, Tony Ortega, Vato and Pano, 2 MESSAGE FROM THE DIRECTOR JOIN US Dear all, THIS FALL FOR EXHIBITIONS, PERFORMANCES, TALKS, AND CLASSES FOR KIDS & ADULTS This year, the Longmont Museum commemorates 20 years of celebrating Día de los Meurtos. Over these years, we have maintained a strong commitment to a community committee in order to uphold authenticity and respectful implementation of the Day of the Dead activities. While Coronavirus has forced us to shift our plans, we remain steadfast in our deference and are up for the challenge. We will feature our annual altar installation in the main gallery this year. Members of the community honor their loves ones through traditional (and some not-so- traditional) assemblies of offerings, symbols, photographs, and mementos. These are deeply moving memorials that celebrate the lives of dearly departed and seem to have particular relevancy in our current times. We will also be featuring the work of acclaimed artist Tony Ortega—painter, printmaker, designer, illustrator, muralist, and professor. The gallery will feature a comprehensive body of work, including illustrations from book collaborations with George Rivera. Additionally, Art in Public Places has generously commissioned Tony to create a downtown mural as an enduring tribute to this auspicious year. We’ll also be bringing you the very best Día de los Muertos virtual festival imaginable! In the following pages, you’ll discover an array of online activities and programs to celebrate the holiday that will culminate with a final live-streamed celebration of dance, music, and poetry on November 1.

  • A Vision of Maturity Pastor Marcus Meier Philippians L 3:8-15 ESV 8 Indeed, I Count Everything As Loss Because of the Surpassing Worth of Knowing Christ Jesus My Lord
    A Vision of Maturity Pastor Marcus Meier Philippians l 3:8-15 ESV 8 Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which comes through faith in Christ, the righteousness from God that depends on faith that I may know him and the power of his resurrection, and may share his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, 11 that by any means possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you. Developing a Vision for Spiritual Maturity ✓ Some people would say, “Going deep in God”, Others would say “running hard after God”. ✓ We want are lives to be marked by a whole hearted, radical pursuit of Jesus. Becoming more like him everyday, until the day that we meet him when we die.

  • Claims, Blames and Automobiles Aviva Looks Back at Over 100 Years of Motor Claims
    Claims, blames and automobiles Aviva looks back at over 100 years of motor claims Introduction Aviva has been helping customers in their time of need for more than 300 years, insuring all types of vehicles from carriages to cycles. But when cars first appeared on UK roads in the 1890s, things changed - a new age of transport had begun with a new kind of risk. With new risks come new solutions which Aviva was at the forefront of from the start. In 1896 the Aviva company, General Accident, issued its first motor insurance policy. And as night follows day, the Andrew Morrish, Aviva’s UK Claims Director first motor claim wasn’t far behind. During the past 123 years, motor claims and policies at Aviva have changed significantly – from the types of claims we see to how we pay claims. This report delves into the Aviva archive to show how things have developed and evolved over time; from the types of claims we used to see to how policies have changed to meet new customer needs. It will then bring us right up to date with a look at innovation in motor claims, some of which may surprise those who don’t necessarily see insurance as a hotbed of innovation. This is a world that is evolving and changing to provide the best service possible for customers. And there are exciting times ahead as we gaze in to the future to see what lies ahead for motor claims. While cars and technology have advanced over the years, the nature of claims in many ways has stayed the same – you have an accident, you want your car fixed as efficiently as possible.
