Another person likely to assume a new role, sylvia burwell. President obama nominated her late this morning as his new health and Human Services secretary. Kathleen sebelius offered her resignation this week after the botched healthcare. Gov rollout. White house officials said sebelius made the decision to resign and was not forced out. One person not too happy with former secretary of state hillary clinton. About [indiscernible] woah, clinton dodged a flying shoe while speaking at the mandalay bay in las vegas. Controversial stuff. If you remember, george w. Bush had two shoes thrown at him in 2008. Dare we say, almost an initiation to the president ial office. She is ready to be president. That was serious stuff. They could have hurt her. The woman was arrested. Where does this come from . Did we identify the woman . Do we understand her politics . The little reporting i have seen says we do not know exactly what her motivation was. Curious. It turns out not just politicians get shoes thrown at them. There goes, woah. Dodged that one. When tom comes to d. C. , strange things happen. Tom keene throwing his shoes at peter cook. The next name in the news, bond king bill gross has enjoyed several decades in the limelight as one of the bestknown Bond Investors in the business. He founded and still runs pimco, home of the Worlds Largest bond fund, nearly 2 trillion in assets. That money comes from pensions, endowments, pretty much anyone with a retirement account. Recall in january when bills bond kingdom was shaken when pimcos ceo Mohamed Elerian left the company. Here is mr. Gross a few weeks after that. Were we disappointed when he left . Yes, we were. He will be here until march. Mohamed came back, not only the heir apparent, but the future ceo. I thought i had done my job but obviously not. This is bill gross yesterday. Extremely disappointed. I thought i knew him better. We hired him to be my successor. Does it make me mad . Yes, that makes me mad. Does that make me disillusioned, not really. I would simply say, come on, mohamed, tell us why. The furor over the past two months in terms of the headlines are quite exaggerated. And it is not indicative of what this company is, was, or will be in terms of our future structure. Bill gross is still not over the elerian departure. Mr. Gross management style has received mixed reviews, from direct to tyranical. It is in the cover story of the new edition of bloomberg businessweek. Am i really such a jerk . Dictator was also thrown around a couple times. A leader has to be forceful and dynamic at times. A leader has to allow for inclusiveness and discussion in order to promote and to elevate the best ideas. Have i done that in the past . Perhaps not perfectly. Sounds like we might be getting somewhere. Time for a little introspection with trish regan. I spoke in the article to the fact that Something Like this over the past two months or three months causes one to reexamine yourself, the Michael Jackson man in the mirror. In this case. Are you the person you thought you were or are you the person that others thought you were . What is your answer . I think for the most part, i am the person i thought i was. I am willing to say in this new generation with our dcios, it is important to be less of a strong leader and more of an inclusive leader. I look in the mirror, i like my hair, it is nice and thick, as the article suggested. Can it be changed and a different style . Of course, that is what im trying to do. What is it that you would change about yourself, beside your hair . Try to taper it a little bit. It is true that you it is true that at certain points i have raised my voice. Is that a bad thing . Not all the time. Frankly, you do not get a pearl unless you have sand in the oyster. A little bit of sand, a little bit of temper, it is incumbent upon a leader to promote that. But not a lot. I am examining myself from that standpoint. Ultimately, this is about bill gross future as the leader of his bond kingdom. What does that look like from the throne . I will be here for a long time, we have a new structure in terms of the investment and our deputy cios. We have a new president and ceo, this company is going for. Forward. We do not want to look at the past. Read the full story of bill gross soulsearching in bloomberg businessweek. It is online and on newsstands today. Still ahead on lunch money, George Costanza.

You have to put it in three feet of water for 30 minutes. They build in some protection of the inside. They have done great stuff with the camera. This will be all over the place. The Global Market will be flooded with ads for this. Cool. Samsung has been on a tear with all these selfie related product placements. Ellen degeneres, david ortiz. Apple pumping up its own marketing. They joined trish regan on street smart. Not immediately clear why they have hired these digital agencies, but they are making moves in the Digital Marketing space. They do have samsung marketing envy. That became clear and emails that went public this week. Tell me about it. Between Philip Schiller at apple and his creative agency. In those emails, he basically called out the agency for not producing campaigns that were as innovative. Innovative, but they have also landed them in trouble, using the president and david ortiz. That is not allowed. Ellen degeneres and that selfie, it feels sort of passing at this point. Samsung is masterful at getting attention to look at their phones. They change the game with an ad making fun of people who wait in line for iphones. It really helped units skyrocket. How do you characterize the Samsung Galaxy . That ad made it feel like it was not cool to wait for an apple product or be an apple fan boy. Apple is also giving its chief designer more authority.

The tournament wraps up sunday afternoon. Augusta national may be established, lesserknown courses have had a tough go since 2009. The ceo of golf course design firm black knight is also the son of pga champion gary player. He spoke with betty liu this morning from augusta. We have had a terrible time in the past few years. Particularly in the usa. It is still that the demographics are tough. You have working parents. It takes a lot of time to play golf. It has been through a terrible time. I think the pricing is starting to correct itself, the subprime subprime the supply and demand curve is changing. There are more golf courses shut down the new ones opening. It is more of a balance. At one point, we just had too many. Too much product and not enough people to participate. Were seeing a correction and that is good news. Where is the new demand coming from . On a global basis, it is really more southeast asia, china, india, some of the latin american countries like brazil, mexico. There are pockets in the usa as well, mostly in the sunbelt, from florida three texas across the california. Where the weather is more conducive to playing. It is not widespread, it is very selective. A lot of people are being smarter as to where they build, how much they spend, and how we market the product. The new golf courses, are they more members only clubs or daily fee type courses . It is a combination of both. The resort courses, where you have got a four seasons or the ritzcarlton that are building branded golf courses with mickelson. Then you have the daily fee golf courses. The public golf courses are growing fastest as municipalities look for ways to use land that is available. Land bank it until the city needs that space. Do you think the pga needs to do more to get people interested in golf . The pga tour is professional golfers and then you have the club pros. Between them, the game has been pretty static. If you look over the last 10 years, it is basically 25 million golfers every year. We may gain one million but we lose one million. It is a 2020 program. Theyre trying to get young people, that is the key. The focus has to be on getting young people to take up the game. They are doing a lot, there is the 2020 program. Theyre trying to make off a a golf a little cooler and more interesting. It is very time consuming. We try to design golf courses that are maybe only three holes or six holes or nine holes that you can walk barefoot and you can go out with your father or your grandfather and play just for an hour. As opposed to 18 holes in five or six hours. What about you . You practically grew up at the masters. My father played in the tournament 52 times. Wonderful. It feels like coming home. It is the only major that stays in the same location. Moves, the pgan championship, the masters stays here. We bring our customers and clients and. New meet old patrons. You walk the golf course. You have a Pimento Cheese sandwich. We have a fantastic one. It is a feeling of coming back. The right of spring. Inspired . Simon jones, who holds the world record for most golf swings in 24 hours, he showed guy johnson in london some of the latest gadgets to improve your game. This is the new launch monitor. It is the simulator type product where it will capture using cameras the data of the ball as you hit the ball at the moment of impact. It will deliver back key pieces of data. It will also simulate the data as well. You take your tablet down to their range and it will link with that i give you a lot of information . Yes. And you have bits of data on the screen. Lets talk about other stuff. This is a different way to play the same game. This is brandnew on the market, they launched it at the pga show in orlando. They launched it in the u. K. Open the box. An actual device that will clip onto your belt. An individual tag for each club. You screw it into the top of each club.

This is a ball made from a piece of resin, which is lighter, faster than a rubber, has more inertia and is more stable. It transfers energy from your shot into the ball more than a piece of rubber. That will make you go further and more accurately. All this is amazing and golf is changing rapidly. What impact is this going to have on the game . It will bring the amateur golfer to a better place in the game. They will be able to learn more about their swing and analyzed it more. Keep up with pros. After the break, date two of the imf meetings in washington. We hear from some of europes top policy makers. Also from the head of the imf herself, Christine Lagarde, on her positive outlook. This is lunch money on bloomberg television. I am adam johnson. Moving pictures where the video is the story residents of northern australias queensland state are bracing for the strongest cyclone with winds as strong as 170 miles an hour. Residents have been warned to evacuate. Some predict sugarcane losses of 5 . In the ukraine, new clashes. Violence took place. The party is considered friendly with the kremlin and police had to escort him from the hotel. Here in new york, the protest to bring attention to violence in south sudan. Demonstrators were arrested by by after blocking the entrance into the united nations. Peace talks are scheduled to resume at the end of the month. The spring imf and World Bank Meetings are concluding. Tom keene set down for an exclusive interview with four policymakers, asking executive Board Members about the prospect for european inflation. Europe is not japan. We know why inflation is low. We need to be stronger in the Single Market and the Global Economy, and for that, they have to cost costs. We know information is low and and inflation is low. It will remain low for a period of time. It is an interest issue. We are aware at the ecb that low inflation can be an issue for countries that have to be deleveraged. It makes it more difficult for them to deleverage. We have a mandate to bring it back to close to 2 . We are aware of our duty under our mandate, and we have been clear in our meeting last week that more measures are ready to be considered, including nonconventional measures to address low inflation if needed, meaning if further news were to confirm that inflation will remain low for a long period of time. We are ready to act if needed. How do you, as an academic, link disinflation to a lack of real Economic Growth . Which is more important, subdued growth or the idea that disinflation could increase to the point of aggregate deflation. We do not see the risk of aggregate deflation. Deflation is not about inflation below or negative. It is about people postponing decisions, investments, consumption decisions. This we do not see. Quite to the contrary, we see growth accelerating in the eurozone. This is not deflation. It is low inflation that comes with its own challenges. That we are ready to face. The imf chief Christine Lagarde has a positive outlook and here she is explaining with charlie rose. The eurozone is finally turning the corner as well, turning positive. It had been negative for two years, and it is now positive. The core countries are doing better, germany being the best of the lot, and the southern countries of the eurozone such as spain, italy, greece, are finally delivering positive results as well. If you look at the emerging market economies, they are slowing down a bit, but they are still cruising at about 5 growth, which is, you know, almost double the growth of the united states. Now, if you look at what they represent relative to the size of the Global Economy, they are at 50 . 50 of the Global Economy is in the hands of emerging markets and developing market economies. If you assume that they grow at that 5 , they are gaining traction, strength in the world. Therefore they should play a larger role in the imf . That is one consequence, you are right. You are right. It also means that their policy, and the impact of, say, the feds Monetary Policy on them, matters not just for themselves, before the Global Economy, given the size they represent. You can watch the full interview with Christine Lagarde with charlie rose at 8 00 p. M. And 10 p. M. Eastern right here tonight on bloomberg television. What has this guy so hungry fat burger. We will speak to the ceo about what keeps customers coming back. That looks good. Also, we will talk to some sitcom legends on their lives after tv. Also, a pair of giant pandas has been found. The mother was eating bamboo while the cub rested in a tree. Today in eats, arteryclogging food galore. We will start with bacon.

Orange production, sugar and to to and coffee at a record high on drugs concerns in brazil. Bacon, up 11 . It is a similar story here for they can, one of the worst offenders, october 11 . Bacon prices were already high. Here is where you go. 10. 1 pigs before the litter. Only about 9. 5 piglets per litter after the virus. One piglet is saved for breeding, nine percent of the litter rate. As this keeps progressing, there will be less pace sent to slaughter, and less feud for us, and there is no cure. Bet you did not know that. The competition for your hamburger dollar is fierce. How does the ceo of fat burger keep you coming through the door . You have to differentiate yourself.
