One of the things holding back the economic recovery recently has been slower-than-expected consumer spending growth. Apparently, consumer spending has been constrained by Americans' newfound unwillingness to borrow. I suspect, however, that this is an illusion created by a deeper problem. Consumers have the money - in fact, net worth has recovered to an all-time high - they just aren't borrowing and spending.
For the surname, see Sendak (surname). Maurice Bernard Sendak (/ËsÉndÃ¦k/; June 10, 1928 â May 8, 2012) was an American illustrator and writer of children's books. He became widely known for his book Where the Wild Things Are, first published in 1963.
Glen Ellen is also famous as the last home of Jack London, author of Call of the Wild and numerous other books, who lived there from 1905 until his death in 1916, at the age of 40. London's Beauty Ranch is now the 39-acre Jack London State Historic Park.
