Podcast appearances and mentions of james meade

150 Years Ago (March 1875) Three of the four children in the James Robinson family of Garrison - John (16), Willie (10) and Jennie (19) - died of diphtheria over 10 days. Shortly before she died, Jennie asked for James Meade, her Sunday School teacher: "Tell my young friends to seek the Lord, while he may be found, and meet me in heaven." After a storm, a classified ad appeared in The Cold Spring Recorder offering a reward for a Smith & Wesson seven-shooter with plated barrel and rosewood stock lost in the snow, probably on Main Street between West and Church. Because of the snow, Garden Street was reduced to a single lane, forcing Charley Warren to load one side of his wagon with bystanders to turn around, "like a sailor does the windward gunwale in a gale," according to The Recorder. Mr. VanWinkle complained that a transcript of his lecture on Egypt and the Nile, reprinted in The Recorder, contained many errors, including "some of words altered to others that were not dreamed of when writing." After poultry went missing, Theodore Adams, his father and his brother-in-law found the dead birds buried near the Fishkill line. They set a steel trap and returned to find it gone. They followed the path of bushes where the trap had snagged and branches chewed off to release it. At Kings' Chest Cave, by smoke and bullets and dogs, they drew out and killed a 33-pound wildcat with the trap around its foot. The men had it stuffed and brought it to the village. A burglar broke into the slaughterhouse of Charles Miller and stole $5 [about $150 today] worth of pork, beef and veal. Burglars stole $50 [$1,450] worth of liquor and cigars from Tevan's basement saloon by breaking a window. To add insult to injury, the culprits uncorked and spilled the demijohns and smashed the glass bar backing. The Rock Street door of Baxter's Hardware was jimmied and the money drawer relieved of $4 [$115] in change. In a letter to The Recorder, a resident called for $500 of the $1,000 [$29,000] allocated by the Cold Spring Village Board for streets instead be spent to install kerosene lampposts on every corner to "keep our stores from being plundered night after night." Milton Lawrence's hay and William Odell's red cow were seized for back taxes. A young man who raised alarms when he walked down Main Street at 5:30 p.m. on a Thursday with a bandaged head and bloody clothes said he had been injured working at Miller's slaughterhouse. The Library Association hosted a discussion of the question: "Will the centennial of a republican form of government be celebrated by the United States, as a unit, more than once?" The Glee Club also sang. P. Nichols of Parrott Street said his 17 hens produced 118 eggs in 12 days. Thomas Richards was killed at Croft's Mine in Putnam Valley when he drilled into an unexploded ordnance. A year after Michael O'Brien broke his arm in a fight near the depot, he was finally able to return to his job at the foundry, where a hoist rope broke and a casting crushed his arm. A police officer from Orange County came to Cold Spring to arrest John Wyant on a charge of bastardy. Wyant returned home after posting a $1,000 [$29,000] bail. In Nelsonville, Charles Van Voorhis sold 50 chances at $1 [$30] each to win a scene he crafted with stuffed birds and squirrels. Elijah Warren of North Highlands, at 70, took his first train ride, from Cold Spring to Garrison. He said his daughter told him to keep his head inside the window. "Dear Lord, how we did sail!" he said. "After I got settled, I could have rode clean to [New] York." 125 Years Ago (March 1900) Michael Pendergrast, 48, the brother of George Pendergrast of Cold Spring, was killed in the railroad tunnel south of Anthony's Nose. He was clearing the ceiling of hanging ice when he was struck by a southbound express. Pendergrast had been employed by the railroad for 25 years and left a widow and eight children. Iona Island, the popular picnic resort, was purchased by the federal government to us...

All countries seem to have economic growth as their primary economic objective and the received opinion is that the best way to do this is through international trade. Since the end of the Second World War this trade has been facilitated by trade agreements brokered first by the ad hoc assemblies to promote the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and later via the auspices of the permanently instituted World Trade Organisation (WTO). The man behind the idea of an organisation to encourage trade was Nobel Prize winner James Meade, a real economists' economist. Throughout his life, he worked on numerous areas of economics and had a personal crusade to prevent the malaise of unemployment, With even a cursory look at his thought you can see how influential he is or might be today's world in a broad range of areas e.g. in his prescient ideas about an Universal Basic Income (UBI) In this third episode of Season 8 of their award winning podcast, your friendly neighbourhood economists, Pete and Gav, dive into the world of Angus Deaton's (a fellow Nobel Prize winner) favourite economist. Along the way, you will get a cheese recommendation, a rather coarse quiz and so many policy ideas, you won't know what to do with them all. Technical support as always comes from our good friend Nic.

Connie's motivational quote for today is by — William S. Burroughs, “Your mind will answer most questions if you learn to relax and wait for the answer.”   YouTube: https://youtu.be/iYKVoB43d-Q   Check Out These Highlights:  When I read this quote, I felt like it was speaking directly to me.  I move fast all the time and forget to slow down enough to hear and feel the answers I am seeking.    It has been a lifelong challenge for me to slow down enough to allow me to speed up. At first, this concept seemed counterintuitive for me.  As I age this truth of slowing down to speed up is spot on and always allows me to see, hear, or feel what the next correct step is for me, my family, and my business.    The reality is that anxiety is everywhere these days, and the toll is high. You can hardly hear the message above the clamor. Yet a simple, scientifically verified meditation practice can literally end the anxiety, and open the floodgates for success.   About James G. Meade, Ph.D.:   We are going to discuss his new book:  End Anxiety.   James is the author of more than 30 books and has taught Transcendental Meditation from LA to New York and in Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean.    On the meditation front, Jim's The Answer to Cancer has worldwide word-of-mouth following. On the business front, The Human Resources Software Handbook draws upon his 100 software reviews in SHRM's HR Magazine.   He is a popular and entertaining teacher and has a collection of rave reviews at the back of his book, which often concludes, “TM (and Jim) has changed my life.”   How to Get in Touch With James G. Meade, Ph.D.:  Email:  jgmwords@gmail.com Website:  http://endanxietybook.com/ Free Gift Link to 3 chapters of the book End Anxiety:  http://endanxietybook.com/   Stalk me online!

Trade is like the air, if it wasn't there, we would die. But most don't think much about it. Well, thank the good creator we have economists, because some of those do think about it. In this episode we explain trade theory by recapping the old greats Adam Smith and David Ricardo. Before moving into the joint recipient in 1977, Bertil Gotthard Ohlin and James Meade. From here we talk about Paul Robin Krugman, today more generally known for punditry, his contribution to new trade theory and economic geometry was well deserved of his 2008 prize. Particularly Meade and and Krugman are in different ways funny to read. We end the episode with a more general talk on the importance of trade. In season 1 (Danish) we reviewed the history of economic thought before WWII. The coming seasons are dedicated to the Nobel Price in Economics, and I am joined by economist Otto Brøns-Petersen. The Nobel price is a good benchmark for how the field and profession of economics developed after WWII. We will focus both on the scientific contributions and on the people behind them. These are all star economists and worthy of your time and attention. Some will mainly feature in one episode, others in several. We therefore advice that you listen in the thematic order we propose – but it is up to you. Rest assured, we will cover all… Eventually.

« Il n’y a pas eu de miracle, juste de bonnes politiques économiques », d’un ancien ministre mauricien.  Elle résume cette réussite qui balaie le pessimisme affiché en 1961 par James Meade. L’économiste anglais estimait alors que l’absence de ressources naturelles en dehors du sucre, conjuguée à une démographie galopante et au chômage, attisant les tensions communautaires dans une société inégalitaire, condamnaient la colonie britannique à l’échec. Cinquante ans plus tard, un autre Prix Nobel de l’Économie, Joseph Stiglitz suggère aux États-Unis de s’inspirer du destin miraculeux de l’île.

"There was no miracle, just good economic policies". This sentence from a former minister of finance, sums up this success, which sweeps the pessimism displayed by English economist James Meade before independence, who then thought that the absence of natural resources apart from sugar, combined with a galloping population and unemployment, fueling communal tensions in an unequal society, condemned the British colony to failure. Fifty years later, another Economy Nobel Prize winner, Joseph Stiglitz, suggests to the United States to take inspiration from the miraculous fate of the island. 

James Meade, after graduating from Guilderland High School, Hamilton College, and Northwestern University — with a Ph.D. in English — wrote several novels, all rejected by publishers. He thinks it’s important not to self-publish but to write for money, and built a career writing nonfiction books, over 30 of them, including five in the well-known Dummies series. His favorite book is “The Answer to Cancer: Is Never Giving It a Chance to Start,” which he wrote with Hari Sharma, M.D. The two have recently written, “Dynamic DNA: Activating Your Inner Energy for Better Health.” Meade and his wife, Nina, started practicing transcendental meditation 50 years ago when they lived in Illinois. They now live in California’s San Fernando Valley where they run the Encino Transcendental Meditation Center and travel the world, teaching the techniques that he says, relieve stress and improve consciousness.

John Kay was born a year before Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn. In the latest episode of Free Exchange, the CapX podcast, he tells Robert Colvile that "sometimes I look at Corbyn and I think, he thinks what I thought when I was 17. It's just that I've learnt a bit since then and he hasn't."Whereas the Labour leader has spent his life ploughing the furrow of far-left activism, John Kay has had a diverse and fascinating career as an economist. In the 1970s, he worked at the Institute for Fiscal Studies under its Nobel prize-winning director James Meade and alongside Mervyn King, who would go on to become governor of the Bank of England. Kay became director of the IFS in 1979 and helped to build it into arguably the UK's most respected think tank.Kay has written on business and economics for the Financial Times for several decades and is the author of numerous popular books on economics, business and finance, most recently Other People's Money: Masters of the Universe or Servants of the People. In a world where economic debate has become less nuanced, Kay is someone who understands the genius of the market but is also alive to its shortcomings. He despairs at the caricatured greed-is-good view of the market that has become conventional wisdom. He calls this idea "both repellant to most thoughtful people and false as a description of how markets really operate". What has been lost, he says, is an appreciation of the extent to which "our economy does depend very heavily on morality and trust relationships. It is not a matter of leaving people to do whatever they like. Nor is it about glorifying greed."In a wide-ranging interview, he explains why he fell in love with economics, what big banks and taxi drivers have in common, where modern finance has gone wrong, why economists should admit there are somethings you cannot predict and the new book he is working on with his old colleague Mervyn King.
