Loomes began his academic career as a teacher rather than a lecturer. Having graduated university in 1970, he became a school teacher. He left this career in 1977 to return to university and study for a master's degree.
Clan Graham (Clann Greumach) is a Scottish clan who had territories in both the Scottish Highlands and Lowlands.
History
Origins of the clan
There is a tradition that the first Graham was one Greme who broke the Roman Antonine Wall driving the Roman legions out of Scotland. However the likely origin is that the chiefs of Clan Graham were of Anglo-Norman origin. The Manor of Gregham is recorded in William the Conqueror's Domesday Book. When David I claimed the throne of Scotland, Graham was one of the knights who accompanied him.Sir William de Graham was present at the erection of Holyrood Abbey, witnessing its foundation charter.
The first lands that the chiefs of Clan Graham appear to have held were around Dalkeith in Midlothian. Sir Nicholas de Graham attended the Parliament of 1290 where the Treaty of Birgham was signed.
Wars of Scottish Independence
The Clan Graham fought at the Battle of Dunbar in 1296 where Sir Patrick Graham of Kincardine was the only man of all the Scots not to retreat and instead fought to the death.
'Graham' was a seedling of the 'Julie' mango planted in Trinidad. In 1932 the variety was introduced to the United States by the USDA through Florida.
'Graham' has become a popular nursery stock tree in Florida for home growing due to its fine flavor and good disease resistance. It was selected as a curator's choice mango for Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden's 2008 mango festival. The fruit is also popular in the Windward Islands.
'Graham' trees are now planted in the USDA's germplasm repository in Miami, Florida., the University of Florida's Tropical Research and Education Center in Homestead, Florida, and the Miami-Dade Fruit and Spice Park, also in Homestead.
Description
The fruit is of oval shape, with a rounded apex that sometimes contains a small lateral beak. The skin is yellow at maturity, and is bumpy and undulating. The flesh is orange, fiberless, and has a rich and aromatic flavor with a resinous note. The fruit contains a monoembryonic seed, and typically matures from June to August in Florida.

The Road Through Britain: Somlo Antiques
If you want to purchase a vintage Omega timepiece from an authorized dealer, there’s literally only one shop in the entire world that can help you: Somlo Antiques. The little shop located at the northwest corner of the Burlington Arcade has very little to do with British watchmaking – other than the fact it’s owned and operated by an Englishman with a penchant for British pocket watches – but we just had to make a stop in London to see why it’s the destination for everything vintage Omega.

The Overlooked History of British Watchmaking
While in today’s time, we are mostly familiar with the quality of Swiss watches, back in the 1800s this wasn’t at all the case. In fact, half of the world’s watches were produced by British watchmakers at the time.
But if the British were so great at making watches back in the days, then how come they’re not known for it anymore? And what are some great examples of British watches? Let’s find out!

Utility over Risky Payoff Streams: Normative and Descriptive Approaches
Speaker: Manel Baucells
Co-authors: Manel Baucells, Michal Lewandowski, and Krzysztof Kontek
Abstract: We provide behavioral foundations of a preference model for risky payoff streams, a broad domain having timed lotteries, income streams under certainty, and repeated lotteries as special cases. Following expected utility and the notion that time is perceived as inherently uncertain, we inadvertently rediscover Bell's (1974) model. To this bedrock, we add the notion that preferences are affected by range effects. The result is a behavioral model with a broad domain and consistent with a plethora of phenomena (bias towards short payback periods, the four-fold patterns for risk and time, preference reversals for risk and time, temporal patterns of decreasing or increasing impatience, and m...

The series is aimed at young researchers, particularly those based in low- and middle-income countries. Each panel discussion in the series will offer an introduction to a concept and its measurement. We will then discuss the pros and cons of different measurement approaches and cover practical considerations when using them in the field.
The aim is for this to be a platform for young researchers to discuss how to implement non-standard economic modules. These interactive sessions will include brief presentations from experienced invited speakers followed by a moderated Q&A session led by a University of Oxford researcher.
All participants are encouraged to ask questions throughout the conversation.
