 business.iafrica.com | business news Inflation escape clause criticised   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
South Africa introduced inflation targeting in 2000 to shore up its financial credentials, with an escape clause which recognises extraordinary events that could not be foreseen and that are beyond the control or influence of monetary policy.
The CPIX measure — excluding home loans — averaged 10 percent in 2002 and there are fears that the 2003 target, which was left at three to six percent, could be missed as well.
He said invoking the clause could result in the public not taking inflation targeting seriously and cause a spiral in inflation expectations.

 Amazon.com: Escape Clause: Books: James O. Born   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
ESCAPE CLAUSE, his third novel featuring Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) agent Bill Tasker, is easily his best, not an easy mark to reach considering the high quality of WALKING MONEY and SHOCK WAVE, his first two novels.
Tasker is, it would seem, a natural creation for Born, given Born's FDLE status as a special agent, his former membership of the FDLE special-ops team, and his duty as a DEA agent and as a deputy U.S. Marshal.
While reading ESCAPE CLAUSE, one gets the feeling that they are not so much turning pages as looking at scenes unfurl across a canvas, or, better yet, watching the private screening of a riveting film.

 Hilton's extraordinary demand escape clause
The Diamond terms and conditions give guaranteed availability if a reservation is made before midnight at least two days in advance, except for "during publicly recognized events which result in extraordinary room demand as determined solely by Hilton." Obviously, the Olympics was such an event here at the downtown SLC Hilton.
My question is, have any of you Diamonds ever been refused a reservation for this "extraordinary demand" escape clause, and, if so, do you feel that this refusal was justified?
Slightly OT, but somebody over on the Marriott board said that the downtown Marriott in Atlanta invoked the extraordinary demand clause because the Braves were playing a regular-season game in town that night.
