I just checked stubhub - a 4 day pass for the Masters, face value $325, is $5085.00, and thee are over 100 available. Some folks have a nice little cottage industry going.

The oil markets have just reopened. How long before the price goes below $50?

WTI has been below $50 for several days

It always seems to be about $3 less than Brent Crude. Not sure why.

I don't know either - I just assumed that US oil is priced in US dollars whereas Brent prices for oil produced elsewhere have to be converted to US dollars.

Natural gas prices here are about 1/3 of the price in the UK.

I assume the products are not equivalent, one probably has a higher "light sweet" fraction than the other.

@SeanT:

UKIP draws its strength from three different demographics:

I was a little surprised when I logged in to Facebook just now to find an Indian former workmate of mine just shared a load of vote UKIP material with me. People who continue to put their fingers in their ears about the ethnic UKIP vote are going to be in for a bit of a surprise, the ultimate "shy kippers" if you ask me.
