Trump and Ursula von der Leyen to meet for high stakes trade talks as clock ticks on tariff deadline
President Donald Trump is meeting Sunday with European Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen, taking a break from golfing in Scotland to discuss trade as both sides seek an agreement on tariff rates with the White House's deadline to impose stiff import taxes looming this week. Trump continued his golfing weekend at his course in Turnberry on the southwest coast of Scotland with a group that included sons Eric and Donald Jr. and their wives. The Republican president waved at reporters and listened to shouted questions about the prospect of reaching a European Union deal during his private afternoon meeting with von der Leyen, but he offered no comment. Trump's five-day visit to Scotland is built around golf and promoting properties bearing his name.

The U.S. and Britain, meanwhile, announced a trade framework in May and a larger agreement last month during the Group of Seven meeting in Canada. Trump says that deal is concluded and that he and Starmer will discuss other matters, though the White House has suggested it still needs some polishing.

Threat of US-EU trade war looms as Trump and top European official plan talks in Scotland

They did their renos over 20 years, so all the home's features seem new
As the owner of a home staging/decorating business , Susan Crema-Martin stages homes where the look lasts only until the house sells. For her own home in East Gwillimbury, she and husband, Michael, took a long-term approach, thoughtfully planning renovations and executing them in stages over two decades. As a result, the 1998 home they purchased 22 years ago has timeless appeal, with older and newer improvements blending seamlessly. 'It's always good practice when you buy a property, to wait, live in it and feel it (before making major changes),' Crema-Martin says. The improvements she and Michael have made over time, starting with the kitchen, and, recently, to the basement, were planned to maximize function and flow. She's 'not a trendy designer person' and her home reflects traditional transitional style, combining classic style and modern elegance. Over the years, improvements have been carried out to make the kitchen the hub of the home, update bathrooms for their son and daughter, accommodate her staging business inventory, and create flow to the backyard oasis with its deck, pool, hot tub and lush gardens. Function has been the priority for each reno, such as creating direct access from the outdoor hot tub through the tiled floor laundry room to the powder room. Now that Crema-Martin's business inventory is stored at another site, the basement has been transformed into a secondary suite, adding value to the home if the Martins ever decide to sell. Crema-Martin's family is Italian, and her visits to Italy influenced her love for timeless design. That's why her kitchen cabinetry is off-white, a colour that never goes out of style, and her kitchen countertops are honed marble, a stone that's been desirable for centuries. Although some people shy away from marble because they fear it's too soft, Crema-Martin points out that Italy's historic piazzas are paved with marble that has endured for centuries. Many of the furnishings in the home are mid-century modern. It is possible to add updated or fun touches to a home without breaking the bank, says Crema-Martin. The master bedroom in her family home got a minor refresh with a feature wall created with boldly patterned peel-and-stick wallpaper, and a new light fixture. The Martins' home was featured in June on the CFUW Aurora/Newmarket Home & Garden Tour, and Crema-Martin was amused when several people complimented the 'new' kitchen reno, when it's actually 20 years old. Even though their two kids are grown and living elsewhere, the empty-nester Martins have no plans to move elsewhere, Crema-Martin says. 'We love our house. It's open. It's bright. It's our happy place.'
