BoE readies guidance push, under wraps for now

By William Schomberg

LONDON (Reuters) - The Bank of England and its new governor Mark Carney will put the finishing touches to a fresh approach to nurturing Britain's nascent economic recovery on Thursday, when the central bank wraps up a policy meeting.

But financial markets will probably have wait a few more days before getting details of the long-awaited steer on how long interest rates are likely to stay at their record low.

At his Bank first policy meeting nearly a month ago, Carney surprised investors with a warning that they were pricing in a rate hike too soon.

That pushed down sterling and British government yields, and launched Carney's governorship with a bang.

Economists are taking no chances this time around. They have warned of the outside possibility of a cut to the Bank's benchmark interest rate or more measures by the Monetary Policy Committee to try to encourage banks to lend to businesses.

JP Morgan entitled a note to clients: "Covering all the bases for tomorrow's MPC meeting." It put the chances of a change in policy at 20 percent.

The most likely scenario is that the bank holds interest rates at 0.5 percent and keeps on ice its bond-buying programme which has been dormant since October.

It is also expected to keep a lid, for now, on whatever agreement policymakers strike on how to convince households, businesses and markets that borrowing costs will remain low.

The MPC announcement is due to be made at 1200 BST, shortly before the conclusion of the European Central Bank's monthly policy meeting which could provide more detail on its own plans to persuade markets that an interest rate hike is not on the cards.

The U.S. Federal Reserve offered no hint after its latest policy meeting ended on Wednesday that it plans to trim its stimulus programme soon, saying the U.S. economy is recovering but still needs support.

FROM OTTAWA TO LONDON

Carney used 'forward guidance' to help shield his native Canada from the worst of the financial crisis, pledging in 2009 to keep interest rates unchanged for more than a year.

It was that kind of bold move that caught the eye of British chancellor George Osborne who named Carney as the Bank's first ever foreign governor late last year.

Osborne has asked Carney and the rest of the Bank's policymakers to report back to him on August 7, alongside the bank's quarterly economic forecasts, on the merits of bringing forward guidance to Britain.

Unlike in Canada, where he needed consensus from his deputies at the country's central bank, Carney has to win over the Bank's nine-strong MPC, including its independent external policymakers.

Several of them have expressed concerns about making commitments on monetary policy which could hamper their ability to respond to changes in the economy. Signs of a turnaround in Britain have begun to appear in recent months.

But the economy remains more than 3 percent smaller than before the financial crisis and is vulnerable to interest rates creeping back up in financial markets, especially at the U.S. economy picks up and exerts pressure on British debt prices.

With all nine MPC members voting against further bond buying at their July 3-4 meeting, the bank's focus on protecting the recovery seems to lie with giving clear guidance on rates, possibly by making a hike conditional on a fall in unemployment.

"There seems little doubt that Mr. Carney and his MPC colleagues will want to ram home the message to businesses, consumers and the markets that any tightening of monetary policy is a very long way off," said Howard Archer, chief UK economist with IHS Global Insight in London.

'Masters of Sex' takes explicit look at sexuality

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) ? There's so much sex depicted on a new cable TV series about researchers Masters and Johnson that filming it became ho-hum for star Michael Sheen.

"I never thought I would get used to having a naked woman in front of me masturbating ... but I actually broke that barrier on the show," Sheen, who plays researcher William Masters, said Tuesday.

He plays opposite Lizzy Caplan as co-researcher and future wife Virginia Johnson in Showtime's "Masters of Sex," an explicit depiction of the pair and their groundbreaking mid-20th century scientific investigation of human sexuality.

The series, based on Thomas Maier's 2009 nonfiction book, debuts Sept. 29 on Showtime. Johnson died last week at age 88 in St. Louis. She was divorced from Masters, who died in 2001.

Sheen, whose film credits include "The Queen," said the story remains pertinent because the same "problems of intimacy" and making connections with people apply today.

During a Q&A session with the Television Critics Association, the difficulty of talking about sex publicly became apparent. One reporter asked the cast and producers how the series can include humor without appearing to titter at sexuality.

"We just had a slightly inappropriate look into your sex life. We all thank you for that," Sheen replied, drolly.

Caplan (TV's "True Blood," ''New Girl") said the researchers' work at Washington University in St. Louis and later at their own institute was especially important for women, allowing them to understand and accept their sexuality as healthy.

"Before Masters and Johnson, no one was telling women that. It was always their own fault," Caplan said. "And that's some (baloney)."

The series embellished some characters but "stuck to the facts very carefully," said producer Michelle Ashford. "Certainly (with) the research, we fudged none of that."

Masters and Johnson became big celebrities who were the topic of late-night talk show hosts and on the cover of news magazines. Their work drew some criticism, especially in an era when sex was seldom discussed in public and certainly not in detail.

The cast, asked whether filming sex scenes proved embarrassing, said there was a painstaking effort to protect the actors by making the production "comfortable and safe," Sheen said.

Cast member Teddy Sears recalled director John Madden saying, "I want to protect your modesty," then mimicked the British Madden giving a stage direction: "Grab her bum."

Doing repeated takes of one clinical sex scene turned out to be "decidedly unsexy after a while," Sears said.

The panelists, including executive producer Sarah Timberman, said they were not in touch with Johnson because they'd wanted to respect her privacy.

"She wanted to live out her the last few years of her life not in the limelight," Caplan said.

Johnson "bared her soul in the book (by Maier) and then was done with that," said producer Ashford.

Oprah Has Extravagant Lunch While On Safari In Africa

What do you get for the woman who has everything?! The Serengeti of course!

Oprah and her main man Stedman Graham have been vacationing in Africa's Serengeti Plains and the media mogul has taken to Twitter and Instagram to document her amazing trip. During the safari holiday, the 59-year-old billionaire photographed cheetahs, elephants and other wild life. Oprah and Stedman, who have been going strong 27 years, also enjoyed a hot air balloon ride together, which Oprah wrote wrote about, saying, "favorite experience on Serengeti: Sunrise in Hot Air Balloon. A SuperSoulSunday moment indeed!

We don't know exactly what a "SuperSoulSunday" is but if it involves animals and a hot-air balloon ride -- we will take it!

After at the picturesque ride, Oprah had a lunch feast on the plains fit for a king -- or rather queen. Lady O posted a pic of the heavenly meal, complete with zebras prancing in the background, and wrote, "Safe landing. Gonna eat and run. Back to US, yay!"

Not a bad last meal before coming back to the US!

Oprah is no stranger to Africa -- she founded the ?Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls? in 2007, which is a boarding school for girls outside of Johannesburg in South Africa. The philanthropist has visited the school several times since it was founded.

Hey any billionaires out there want to take us on a safari? We don't eat much and we pack light!

St. Paul Mayor Coleman, Sir Richard Branson take a look at drug policy

St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman touched on the thorny issue of drug policy reform Sunday at the Landmark Center after viewing a documentary about the war on drugs.

Coleman participated in a panel discussion along with Sir Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Group, who is promoting the documentary "Breaking the Taboo," which chronicles the supposed worldwide failures of the war on drugs.

Since it debuted in December, discussions about the film, which Branson's son, Sam, co-produced, have centered on the debate about whether drugs should be treated as a health problem rather than a criminal problem.

Richard Branson, a member of the Global Commission on Drug Policy, has been critical of the war on drugs. Coleman has been supportive of drug courts and other efforts that often promote rehabilitation over incarceration.

"When the drug courts were started in Hennepin County, there was a lot of controversy about that," Coleman told the audience that nearly filled the Landmark Center's 230-seat auditorium. "But people all of a sudden realized that there was a tremendous benefit. It got people in recovery ... and saved money."

Coleman noted that Minnesota has been at the forefront of recovery and often is referred to as the "land of 10,000 treatment centers."

"We do it as good as anybody," he said. "Addiction is painful, and it is really important that people have resources and places to turn."

Many audience members cheered as Coleman noted how the war on drugs has hit the African-American community especially hard.

"Again, I'm not here to advocate for deregulation of all drugs or anything. I'm just saying that this isn't working, and we're seeing the consequences of that," Coleman said.

Branson is believed to be one of the richest business moguls in Britain, and the Virgin Group -- which includes Virgin Atlantic Airways and Virgin Megastores -- spans more than 400 companies. Branson was in St. Paul to also attend the Starkey Hearing Foundation gala held at RiverCentre.

Treating addiction as a public health problem instead of a crime would reduce the money spent on law enforcement and incarceration, Branson said Sunday.

"The first step is (that) nobody caught with any kind of drug would ever be sent to prison," he said. "If they have a drug problem, they will be helped. That has worked in other countries around the world, and that would be great if that could be introduced here. Ask yourself if you'd want your brother, sister or children sent to prison or helped."

The others panelists Sunday were Sarah Gordon, an HIV counseling coordinator with the Minnesota Department of Health, and Naya Arbiter, vice president of the Amity Foundation, a nonprofit that provides drug treatment services in California, New Mexico and Arizona.

Filmed in eight countries and narrated by Oscar-winning actor Morgan Freeman, "Breaking the Taboo," launched online on Hulu.com last week.

More screenings are planned in more than 20 venues in the U.S., England, Thailand and Australia.
