Economic growth in the wealthier nations of the world is still too slow for creating enough jobs for the tens of millions who lost jobs during the worst global recession since World War Two, the World Bank said.

The World Bank forecasts the global economy would expand 3.3 percent this year that is softer than the 3.9 percent expansion seen during 2010.

From in.finance.yahoo.com:

Growth in the developing world will sharply outstrip growth in mature economies. The World Bank forecast growth in emerging economies of 6 percent in 2011, weaker than last year’s 7 percent rate. Rich countries, in contrast, will grow only 2.4 percent, down from 2.8 percent for 2010.

“The recovery in many high-income countries has not been strong enough to make major inroads into high unemployment in spare capacity,” the report said.

The United States, the world’s largest economy, is a case in point. The economy exited its worst recession in generations in the summer of 2009. But at 2.6 percent on latest count, growth has been too soft to put a meaningful dent in a stubbornly high jobless rate — now at 9.4 percent.

The World Bank predicts the U.S. economy will grow 2.8 percent in 2011, largely in line with a median forecast of 2.7 percent in a Reuters poll of private sector economists.

In Europe, recovery has been hampered by persistent worries about highly-indebted countries like Greece and Portugal, which have kept borrowing costs high and led to severe market disruptions.

The World Bank said, “Capital inflows into some middle-income countries have placed undue and potentially damaging upward pressure on currencies.”

By sharing their exact location through a new smartphone feature, users of Facebook in Britain can get access to shop discounts and restaurant “bargain deals“.

The Places Deals service is aimed at logging the location of members and then finding money-off deals in their local area.

From in.finance.yahoo.com:

“Friend deals” depend on tagging a number of friends to share savings while “loyalty deals” require multiple check-ins, similar to a traditional punch card.

The application, which is part of Facebook Places, was launched in the US in November, and Starbucks, Debenhams and Argos have all developed offers in conjunction with the social networking site.

Now rewards will also be available in the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain, and each special offer will be unique to Facebook users.

“Facebook is built around people and sharing personal experiences and Deals is a great extension of this,” the Daily Mail quoted Joanna Shields, vice president of the company in Europe, the Middle East and Asia, as saying.

There are a many reasons why someone might be hesitant to use the feature, according to Dan Olds, an analyst at The Gabriel Consulting Group.

If you read newspaper headlines of road rage, violence in intimate situations, murder, and mayhem and think that you are in complete control of your anger, it is time to think again and do a soul-search.

Anger is a basic emotion, one that tends to swamp us when we feel we have been wronged and no one of us is spared by its wrath.

From in.news.yahoo.com:

A group of Australian researchers found that anger is rooted in the distress associated with a mismatch between expectation and real-time experience in the brain. For instance, if you’re expecting one outcome (driving home, not really paying excess attention because you’ve done it so many times before) and experience a markedly different result (someone cutting you off from the right).

When there’s a mismatch between what you expect should happen and what actually happens, it leads to cognitive dissonance that might be experienced as anger. Subjects, having magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain scans on being rudely reprimanded for not cooperating (as part of the experiment) showed increased activity in the anterior cingulate cortex.

This structure in the frontal part of the brain seems to be a conflict detector, deeply involved when we weigh an unfair or unjust situation, especially in a social context. Additionally, increased activity in regions associated with memory, such as the hippocampus, suggested that faced with such a mismatch, they also search their memory banks for similar instances of insult.

So the next time you feel angry, you know that it is in your own good to control things before they go out of hand.
