Look, I'm not saying Janet Yellen was perfect, but her instincts about when to begin the balance normalization program was spot on. We've got to get our monetary bullets back in the barrel before the next recession, or we will be caught with our pants down.

Keynes was right; Milton was a cop.

The year is 2019. bofa.lol has grown so massive that the bank of america has taken notice, and brought the instance to court in an attempt to get at the domain name.

"It stands for something other than bank of america for us" @selfagency says in defense on the stand.

"What else could it possibly stand for?" asks the bank lawyer.

Lake Retba in Senegal is one of several pink lakes in the world. It's even saltier than the dead sea, and many locals there work as salt harvesters.

The pink colour comes from harmless microbes living in the water, which use strongly coloured pigments as a kind of sunscreen. Some of them use a type of photosynthesis which may have evolved independently of plants.
