International tax regulation is going through its biggest change in a generation. The OECD's work to tackle perceived tax avoidance, especially through its Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project, is impacting multinational groups across all sectors and Commodity trading firms, facing a multitude of challenges, are likely to be particularly affected.
Considering the ever changing environment and obstacles impacting the industry, executives are feeling positive about the state of the industry and the potential for growth. This survey reflects the viewpoint of over 100 energy industry executives and the key issues they see for 2014.
Description: The energy sector needs to address major gaps in workforce knowledge and experience if it is to meet its aggressive growth goals and contribute to a healthy global economy. As energy companies direct their attention to addressing the talent gap, the findings of this report shed insight on specific obstacles that may stand in the way and reveal four areas where they should focus their efforts.

Energy and natural resources companies are challenged by an ever-growing array of threats and opportunities that grow more complex every day. From the risks entering remote regions in the world in the search for natural resources to changing regulatory and compliance pressures and financial and production risks; the management of these risks is not advancing as fast as the threats faced, and companies are falling short in a number of important areas.

Companies now face not only cyber attacks from hacking groups, script kiddies and hactivists – they're threatened by state-sponsored agencies with limitless resources. These agencies usually carry out cyber attacks to seek a competitive edge, gain access to intellectual property, or for sheer sabotage. In other words, cyber threats have never been more pervasive and attack damages never more real for energy companies.

Sony writes up UK e-book viewer plan

1) Don't use the sony reader software, use Calibre - free, multiformat, works great, and allows you to reformat books.
2) Why would anyone want to shop from Waterstones or a UK-based Sony store? Buy from places like BooksOnBoard and you pay US prices.

No, it's technology. It's always been technology, from Rome's iron gladii to England's longbowmen at Agincourt to the bomb at Hiroshima. That's why we're not sending our boys out to the Middle East with flint axes.
RIM officially unveils Javelin
Precisely correct on the 3G comment above. This should in no way be rated as a Bold-league device. Have fun using Docs-to-go over EDGE. It's a nice-looking device though, a decent top-end consumer device. If we see a device in this form-factor towards the end of next year that has 3G, it'll be a real winner.
To disagree with the top comment, however, RIM devices have excellent keyboards. This one is the same size as the 83xx devices, which are very easy to use.
RIM Blackberry Pearl Flip 8220
Front screen timeout
No comment on the fact that the small screen on the front of the device times out after a couple of minutes, rendering it totally useless? Nothing about the appalling plastic-y build quality?

Some of the challenges Sahara Force India faced when creating a new website included integrating social media and providing real-time video, news and information. As a key competitor on the Formula One racing circuit that includes 20 races across four continents, they pride themselves on being a global team with a worldwide fan base. And, they pride themselves on performance, both on and off the circuit.
Naturally, Sahara Force India wanted their website to perform quickly and reliably, even during unpredictable traffic spikes on race weekends when fans are anxious for the latest happenings. So, the team seamlessly migrated to Internap's hosting platform and streamlined communication with fans through a single web site portal.

RHOM became a real family show last night. Seriously though, we met more family members in one episode than you could shake a family tree at. Let's go through and review who exactly was there, what drama they might have stirred up (as parents are so wont to do), and make some predictions in the process.
Lenny Hochstein's Parents
Lisa's in-laws were in town and she seemed...well not exactly over the moon. When Lenny told her he was going to be late coming home from work and would miss their arrival, you could catch a quick glimpse of fear written on her face. Luckily, her mother-in-law evidently loves Daysy, who was able to help Lisa ease the stress of impending judgment.
Judgment about what? You guessed it -- babies! Like any in-law, they're looking for grandchildren. This is a sore subject for Lisa as we've learned, and something tells me Lisa's been getting that request for grandkids since she and Lenny came back from the honeymoon.
Lisa throws a beautiful seder, inviting the ladies and their parents. Honestly I think the whole episode should have just followed the interactions of Elsa and all the Housewives parents, because you know there were some great conversations we missed there. Maybe I'm biased, but come on, you know you wanted more of that.
However one of my favorite parts of the whole episode was Lisa's toast to America. I was hoping for some fireworks at the end, but even without it was still perhaps the most patriotic moment in Housewives history.
Prediction: Much like Joanna, we're hoping the next speech Lisa makes is just an announcement is that she's pregnant.

Lewis and Clark Elementary's Ukulele Club, which formed early this year, performed two songs for the Caroline School Board Monday night.
The school won a $500 grant from Rappahannock Electric Cooperative to form the club.
The first was "This Land is Your Land."
The second was the school's new song, which is to the tune of the Beatles song Eight Days a Week.

So day 2 is all about Waste Reduction (Environmental benefits & Elimination Communication)! Waste reduction is just a plus for most families. A good portion of families who use cloth diapers chose it for cost purposes, not for environmental benefits. But we should really look at that aspect when considering using Cloth. And, for those families who chose to cloth for cost purposes, you should look into Elimination Communication, because that will save you TONS more cash!
Using Disposables:
- Sodium polycrylate, and dioxin = Toxic shock syndrome, allergic reaction, damage central nervous system, kidneys and liver.
- Consumer Protection Agency has received reports of chemical burns, noxious chemical and insecticide odors, choking on tabs and lining of the diaper.
- Babies have a 54% chance of getting diaper rashes, and since families have been choosing disposables more often, the percentage of rashes increased from 7.1% to 61%

Public Statement of Pfizer's Thelin EU Marketing Authorization Withdrawal
The EMA has issued a statement addressing the withdrawal of the marketing authorization for Thelin, which was voluntarily withdrawn in 2010 because of a risk of serious liver injury.
Back in August 2006, the European Commission (EC) awarded the orphan designated Thelin (sitaxentan) marketing authorisation in the EU. Used to treat adults with pulmonary arterial hypertension, the endothelin receptor antagonist increases capacity for physical activity. Sixteen EU Member States consequently marketed Thelin.
On 10 Dec, 2010, Pfizer announced that it would cease clinical trials of Thelin and initiated a voluntary withdrawal of the product in the EU, Canada and Australia. Pfizer based this decision on safety information obtained from clinical trials and post-marketing reports. In a press release, the company stated: "While liver toxicity is a known complication of the class of drugs to which Thelin belongs, a new potentially life-threatening idiosyncratic risk of liver injury with Thelin has been observed." Indeed, the withdrawal followed information on two cases of fatal liver injury.
On 6 Jan. 2011, the EC issued a decision confirming the withdrawal of the marketing authorization of Thelin and the European public assessment report has been updated to reflect the change. The EMA made a public statement addressing the withdrawal on 2 Mar. 2011.

this show has potential. it's getting pretty interesting. the first two episodes were meh, but i feel that shows like this are usually that way. it takes time to build up the characters and get interesting.
i do find it funny that this was hyped on this site as "kid cudi's show"... i still dont get what his character is supposed to be/do.
anyone else predict that this season ends with Crisp Denim become a success?
then the second season is about them living this baller/successful lifestyle... then at the end of the second season, something goes terribly wrong.
and the third season is basically them starting over....

Big Niman Ham Steak -- Ideas for Tonight??
- oakjoan Sep 14, 2006 11:37 PM
I got a big Niman ham steak last night at Trader Joes. I go there so seldom that I usually turn into a frenzied "I NEED THAT!" shopper. I tell myself I'm going for the Stoned Wheat Thins (a valid reason since they're so great) and end up buying out the place.
Anyway, aside from scalloped spuds and ham (Mom's recipe and very good) does anybody have any ideas besides sandwiches or ham and eggs?
Anybody know of a ham pasta?
I always use holiday ham leftovers in this Galician soup recipe. Basically, cubed ham (even better with bacon knuckles or a ham bone), diced onions, cloves, thyme, bay leaf and water at low boil for about 1 to 1.5 hours (shorter if you throw in a beef boullion), then add cannellini beans and chopped collard greens, then simmer until the greens are tender and the soup is thickened.

I made a soup ala cookbean's suggestion. Had no greens but some Italian parsley. Used thyme, bay leaves, chicken broth, lots of onions, some carrots and the ham. It was wonderful. My husband loved it (he's the ultimate soup lover (sort of a soup nazi sympathizer).
I also toasted some Acme bread slices brushed with olive oil and mashed garlic and sprinkled with really good Parm cheese I got at Costco. Even at Costco this stuff was pricy!
Thanks again.
re: oakjoan
I'm glad it even passed the huband test! Good thinking with the bread, too - I put some homemade croutons on top last time and it gave the soup a nice crunch. Happy eating!
I bought a Niman Ranch Ham Steak a few months ago and was horrified- it was pressed ham pieces with lots of grisle. It was one of the worst things I have ever eaten . I hope you have better luck.
Pasta with ham...
Make a white cream sauce... add strips of ham, peas, and chunks of fresh tomato... add over penne and enjoy!
I watched Michael Chiarello make minestrone with pancetta today and thought it would be good made with Niman ham (which I also love as grilled sand with gruyere & tomato or cold with rye, mayo, mustard, and lettuce)
Saute'- sliced carrots, celery, garlic, onion, ham chunks.
Add chunked spuds, rosemary, zuchini, canned white beans, 6 cups broth, pepper.
Right before serving add cooked pasta (don't store soup with pasta in it = mushiness)
Add fresh parm before serving when soup is not boiling hot.
Garlic bread
re: ErikaK
I bought a bone-in ham steak last night and THOUGHT they were fully cooked. However, the package says cook thoroughly. Hmmmm Looks cooked (cured) to me. Anyway, I don't care for grilled or fried ham. Can this be cooked in the oven with a sauce/glaze and should I cover it? Thanks, folks. :)
re: JudiMorrison
Glazing is excellent. Try ginger, soy and maple syrup for an incredible sweet/salty combo. You can start to heat it covered, then end with the broiler to caramelize it.

SANTA CLARA - Maybe it was a good thing that Friday's Manteca-Wilcox football game did not take place at Levi's Stadium as originally planned.
MODESTO – They did what they were supposed to do.
Victor Polanco stood on the sidelines, a sun hat pulled low on his brow.
The last day to purchase tickets for the Manteca High football team's rooters' buses is Wednesday, Aug. 20.
Lathrop Jr. Spartans president Jaime Hernandez has a vision.
LATHROP - To borrow a phrase from John Denver's "Rocky Mountain High," the Lathrop Lions are coming home to a place they have never been before.
So, how does Sierra replace one of the Sac-Joaquin Section's most prolific passers of 2013?
Keith Jackson is picking up where he left off last fall, when he rallied generations of Manteca High alumni to cheer the Buffaloes' historic postseason run.
Second-year Lathrop coach Steven Wichman has a better idea of what his team can do with pads on this time around.
The Sac-Joaquin Section's preseason Dead Period doesn't begin until Monday.
Weston Ranch's football players weren't the only ones hard at work this offseason.
RIPON – Trey Ozenbaugh joined the Ripon Christian football staff on a whim.
Manteca High's football team rode the backs of two powerful linemen in its historic 2013 campaign.
For months, Billy Sharmoug stepped to the microphone and stumped for teammate Alex Laurel.
CARSON (AP) - Brad Kaaya's final performance as a high school quarterback was no different than what he's done all season.
ESCALON – The Ripon High football team battled wet conditions, a sloppy field and a tough Escalon squad at Engel Field.
OAKDALE – The stage is set.
It's Halloween, and the spookiest holiday of the year has given football fans a real treat: defending Valley Oak League champion Manteca versus unbeaten Sierra, with more than just bragging rights at stake.
The Manteca-Sierra football rivalry smolders and smokes throughout the spring and summer months, before bursting into flames each autumn.
David Reyes pulled in a 62-yard scoring pass from Caden Worth for the Sierra freshmen on the game's first play from scrimmage Thursday to set the tone in a 46-0 Valley Oak League freshman win over East Union at Dino Cunial Field.
Following a scoreless first half the Sierra Timberwolves scored two third-quarter touchdowns to claim a 14-6 victory over East Union High in Valley Oak League sophomore football action.
Smiling faces after a losing football game?
East Union lined up in victory formation on its own 5, down 35-21 in the final seconds of its intra-city duel at Sierra's Daniel Teicheira Memorial Stadium.
Eric Reis was thrilled to be back at Guss Schmiedt Field.
SALIDA – Ripon defensive backs Mario Roach and Nick Price arrived late to their mark, crashing into one another at the goal line.
DENAIR - Billy Marr threw for a season-high 256 yards and four touchdowns as the Ripon Christian offense finally found its groove in a 31-0 rout of Denair.
East Union considered last week's game with Lathrop to be its "Super Bowl."
When Manteca coach Eric Reis sat Dakarai Charles for the first half against Lathrop, he hoped to rest his quarterback's banged-up knee.
Oakdale refused to let Hunter Johnson, a preseason all-Sac-Joaquin Section selection at wide receiver, beat them through the air.
RIPON – When Ryan Fugit looks at film of Modesto Christian, the Ripon star sees flashes of monsters past.

Amruth Raj N Started The Discussion:
Dear All, Can anybody help me what is National Social Security Number (NSSN) under Provident Fund Act. I will be greatful to know on this. With Best Regards Amruth Raj N Bangalore
kavithahr7 - Member Since: Jun 2007
Employee Provident Fund Organization has launched a major project called Re-Inventing EPF India to provide world class service to all its clients. As part of this project a unique 14 digit identity number called Social Security Number (SSN) is allotted to every Provident Fund subscriber. Social Security Number is compulsory for every Provident Fund subscribers in the new system for providing all kind of services.
Why do I need it?
After Allotment of Social Security Number
§ You will have one unique number for life time including for your Pension after retirement.
§ You will get Any Where Any Time Facility, when all the offices of Employees Provident Fund Organization are eventually linked together electronically in a phased manner.
§ There will not be any necessity to transfer your Provident fund accumulations every time you change your employment, or move from one place to another.
§ Your Provident Fund account will be updated every month instead of the present yearly updating.
§ Eventually, when the necessary infrastructure is put in place, you can know your Provident Fund balance even over telephone (IVRS), through the internet or through specially set up interactive kiosks.
Hope it will be usefull
Amruth Raj N - Member Since: Aug 2007
Dear Kavitha, Thanks a lot. Please share such useful information to my e mail id: firstname.lastname@example.com Best Regards Amruth Raj N
AndhraGuy - Member Since: Jan 2008
can any one tell me how do I cross verify the NSSN,
I was working with a company at Hyderabad for last 5 years and some 3 years back the EPO office people came and took photos and tole soon we shall be receiving NSSN,
But after another year they again came back and we went for photos again, but this time after verifying my details they told me that I was already registered when they came last time and both the old registered guys and new guys would get the NSSN numbers in a couple of months.
this happened in feb 2007
then I changed my company and my accounts people told me to continue my Pervious PF account in the new company,
After some delay i was able to get a Number starting with 120000xxxxxxxx presumably the NSSN number as i was informed,
I gave this number in my new office and they are putting my PF to this account,
when I asked if this number is referring to my name, my current office people are telling they are simply putting my PF into the number I have provided, it is my duty to find out if that NSSN pertains to me or not ?
How do i verify if this number belongs to me ? or the PF is getting credited to some one else ?
madhukarkr - Member Since: Jun 2008
This is in use in only some state, Karnataka is yet to implement this. Maharashtra is not settling withdrawals without this number/ registration. I had applied for withdrawal when i changed jobs. The form that was sent for applying for the NSSN is lost in transit and the company refuses to send another copy. Can some one help in getting me a second copy?
Reply to
Will be most appriciated.

Yesterday the website Inside Line reported that sources deep within General Motors revealed that the storied "Nomad" name would be revived for the upcoming Chevy version of the automaker's full-size Lambda-based CUV. According to their sources, the new ute will debut as a 2009 model to replace the abhorrent Chevy Uplander.
Not so, says Josh Oliver from The GM Source. His sources, also deep within General Motors, claim that reviving the "Nomad" name, which most recently was used on a Kappa-based concept in 2004 (shown above), has never even "appeared on the radar screen" during discussions of how to christen the new crossover. Oliver's sources also claim the CUV will appear in 2009 as a 2010 model.
Who to believe? We don't really care, because it's just a name. We're more concerned that GM's spreading the Lamda platform too thin across four brands. While the Buick Enclave manages to differentiate itself well from therest of the pack, the Saturn Outlook and GMC Acadia already appear too close for our comfort. Hopefully the Chevy version doesn't come off as an Acadia with a Malibu grille.

The Westin Key West Resort & Marina

|Critic Rating Good
|Guest Rating
U.S. News Review
Travelers praise the location above all else at The Westin Key West Resort & Marina, but then again, any Mallory Square hotel is pretty well placed. So what else makes this gorgeous waterfront property distinctive from all the rest? How about the surreal marina views at sunset, or the luxurious outdoor heated pool? And then there's also the Westin trademark, cushy Heavenly beds available in every guest room. For a stronger sense of luxury, travelers recommend requesting a room with a private balcony and a Jacuzzi tub. If you're trying to distinguish this property from Key West's other Westin property (Sunset Key Guest Cottages, located a 10-minute boat trip away), The Westin Key West Resort & Marina is not as kid-friendly, travelers say. One thing they do have in common, however: Starwood Preferred Guests can use or earn member points at either property.

takeover-style robbery at a Denny's Restaurant.
Police spokeswoman Nadine Hamby says "multiple" armed suspects
rushed the packed northwest Albuquerque restaurant at about 9:30
a.m. Saturday.
A female employee of the restaurant was shot and killed.
Two people have been detained, but Hamby says it is unclear yet if they are the suspects in the robbery. A police tactical team has surrounded a home in the northwest part of the city where other
potential suspects are believed to have fled.
Hamby says the information is sketchy because detectives have more than 60 witnesses to interview.

When you go to the doctor, you expect to be cured. Well, guess what? Doctors expect some very important things from you that may make or break their diagnosis. What you may not tell them could even cost you your life.
When we walk into the doctor's office, we have certain expectations. We want to feel better. If we don't have answers for the doctor, however, the doctor can't make us better.
"He always seems to be stuffy, drippy and sneezy," says Rachel Meier, who is the mother of 2 year-old Caden.
"On his charts, you didn't list any medications," says Doctor Thom Rosenberg.
Rosenberg says, without help from the patient, he can't give the proper diagnosis. There are three main things he expects. First, know your health history.
"Why are you here? What's the problem? How long have you had the problem?" he asks. "Then we'll go from there."
Number two... Know what medications you are taking and which ones worked in the past or didn't work.
"Many medications react with each other," he explains.
Don't forget any over-the-counter drugs and even illegal drugs or herbs. If a doctor doesn't know, he can't help you.
Finally, doctor's expect compliance.
"I expect you to come back," Rosenberg says. "I expect you to take your medications."
In turn, Rosenberg says, with the right information, he can make the correct diagnosis 90% of the time.
But what do patients expect from the doctor?
"I expect them to listen to my concerns and address those concerns and take them seriously," says Meier.
You should also expect to be seen in a timely manner, get test results within 48 hours, and your doctor should explain medicines and their side effects in terms you can understand.
Doctors say the best patient brings all their medications with them, hospital records and any X-rays. That way, everything is on the table so the doctor can help you get better.

Archos shows off three new smartwatches ranging from $50 to $130
Just in case you hadn't seen enough wearables coming out of CES this year, Archos is adding three smartwatches to the mix. The company is most well known for its budget Android tablets, and is now moving into the smartwatch game, although details are a bit scarce right now. We don't know much more than the prices and what the watches look like.
The low-end model will cost just $50 and feature black and white display similar to the Pebble, and it will be capable of keeping the watch going for about 1.5 weeks. Going up the ladder, there is a $100 model that will feature a 1.8-inch color LCD display, but the tradeoff there is that the battery life gets cut to just 2 days. The top option is slated at $129 and features a curved eInk display and metal housing; it is also rated at 1.5 weeks of battery life.
As far as functionality, Archos said the idea is to "extend" your smartphone, but didn't give too much detail. The watches will be able to connect to an Android or iOS device via Bluetooth LE and will offer customizable notifications, media controls, and more. It's unclear if there will be standalone apps for the watches, and no word yet on availability.

Why are we forced to have ads on things we buy? I like the watch, but does it have to say "E-INK" on the top of it? Frankly, that ruins it for me.

its not an ad, it just says the watch has an E-Ink screen. Kind of like putting LTE on the back of phones

What does it take to create happy, long-term, productive employees? Why isn't education enough? A recent Gallup study shows that graduates who had a mentor or professor who cared about them and encouraged their goals and dreams were twice as likely to be engaged with their work.
Before the Internet and the advent of mentoring software, it was difficult to connect people from different parts of the world in truly meaningful mentoring relationships. Now organizations can optimize learning without the constraint of geography. Administrators and participants need to be thoughtful about these long distance relationships to ensure maximum success.
I am sure that many of you are trying to determine if it's worth it to bite the bullet and invest in mentoring software versus continuing to do it manually. It might seem expensive as well as time consuming to get it launched, but I can assure you that in the long run mentoring or learning software is a more effective solution in terms of both costs and benefits.
So you are thinking about starting a mentor program but you need to convince management that it will add value to your organization and ultimately improve your bottom line. Here are some easy steps to help you start to better understand the ROI (return on investment) of your mentoring program:
The whole idea of women and mentoring has been to make progress in the effort to break the glass ceiling, to get women into the upper echelons of business management. It has been a team effort to stand up for our tribe and to make a difference for our daughters.
Is Poor Mentor Matching Like a Bad Blind Date?
I'm thinking about hosting a call-in radio show called "Hey Bob"– where people call in with questions about business, and get the latest relevant information on their questions. A typical show might sound like this:
They graduated from a top-tier college in the early 1960's. Near their graduation date, they were offered an opportunity to sit for an IQ test and, based upon the results, they were immediately hired by a large insurance company to be trained as a computer programmer. (This was in the era when a "computer bug" was a moth that flew into the vacuum tubes and shut down the computer.)
In the course of our work here at Mentor Resources, we interact with several hundred companies a year helping them investigate, evaluate and start mentoring programs.

Caroline officer graduates from FBI Academy
Lt. Angel Lambert was among 246 law enforcement officers who graduated from the FBI National Academy in
Quantico earlier this month.
Lambert is the first Caroline County Sheriff's Office representative to ever attend the academy, which is internationally known for its academic excellence.
Lambert, who has a bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice from Virginia Commonwealth University, completed six college-level courses over 10 weeks, as well as an advanced physical training program that prepared her for the completion of the U.S. Marine Corp 6.1 mile obstacle course affectionately known as "The Yellow Brick Road".
FBI Director Robert Mueller was the principle speaker at the June 10 graduation and greeted each graduate as they were presented their diploma.
The 245th Session of the National Academy consisted of men and women from 48 states. Included in the class were members of law enforcement agencies from the District of Columbia, 22 international countries, three military organizations, and two federal civilian organizations.
Training for the program is provided by FBI Academy instructional staff, special agents, and other staff members holding advanced degrees, many of whom are recognized internationally in their fields of expertise.
"The friendships, net working, knowledge, and camaraderie that I experienced during the National Academy will last not only for a career, but a lifetime. I am humbled to have been offered this incredible opportunity and look forward to implementing what I have learned," said Lambert.

In Mixed Catch, NF Senior Editor Linc Bedrosian spotlights a wide range of commercial fishing-related news items from coast to coast.
Tuesday, 15 January 2013
If you're wondering who loves fishermen more, Hollywood or Congress, the answer is Hollywood.
Actually, Congress isn't showing fishermen any love. They started the new year by excising $150 million for fisheries disaster aid from a $60 billion emergency spending bill for recovery from Superstorm Sandy.
The money would support 2012 economic disaster declarations the Commerce Department made for the Northeast's struggling groundfish fishery, Alaska's chinook salmon run failures, and Mississippi's oyster and blue crab fisheries.
But on Jan. 2, Republican House members objected to the inclusion of the fisheries aid money, which they called political "pork."
Remember when "pork" referred to money allocated to ridiculous programs — you know, to do things like see if poodles can be trained to dance "Swan Lake" — that were a clear waste of taxpayer funds? Now apparently "pork" means providing economic assistance to get hardworking Americans through a difficult time.
Ultimately, the House whiffed on voting on the Sandy funds that day. Two days later they approved $9 billion for Sandy aid to keep National Flood Insurance Program claims payments flowing. Congress then scheduled a vote on the remaining $51 million for Sandy aid for mid January.
Now today comes news that Congress has rejected another attempt to procure fisheries disaster assistance for fishermen.
According to a news release issued by Massachusetts Democratic Congressmen Ed Markey, John Tierney and Bill Keating, House Republicans dealt fishermen another blow again late last night when they rejected all amendments the three legislators offered to restore the disaster assistance money to the Sandy relief bill.
It would seem Congress doesn't much care about fishermen.
In contrast, Hollywood is treating fishermen well. Saw a wonderful story in the Gloucester Times today about two local fishermen, Dave Marciano and Dave Carraro, who star in the National Geographic channel's hit reality TV show "Wicked Tuna." The show about commercial bluefin tuna fishing is seen in 171 countries.
The duo took part in a promotional tour to kick off the show's second season, and got a taste of what it's like to be treated like a Hollywood star.
The tour took them to Los Angeles, where they took part in a Television Critics Association event, and to New York and Boston as well. They stayed in luxury hotels, enjoyed car service and rubbed elbows with TV and movie stars. People opened doors for them, and addressed them as "Sir."
Sounds like they were treated well and with respect. Congress could learn something from the folks in Hollywood.

Collected poems by Charles A Poole, published posthumously. Poole lived a minimalist life out in nature, not unlike Henry David Thoreau. He was a passionate recluse, socially uncomfortable, yet oddly extroverted and conversational. Poole had a rough childhood, the son of an angry father with a big secret, and eventually turned to drug use as a coping mechanism. His poetry is sometimes reminiscent of Emily Dickinson, other times of Ernest Hemingway. Sometimes humorous, sometimes full of pathos, his poetry is short and to the point. This collection is edited by Joshua Gray.

This book was good. I kept wanting to know what happens next. At the end I was hoping that perhaps the story continues or perhaps a sequel.
This book is full of suspense. It took me a full morning to read the entire book. It is recommended highly. It would make an excellent movie.

is ranked second only to tobacco control in being the most important factor in health promotion and disease prevention in Australia.
Given the prevalent, serious and preventable nature of intimate partner violence, there is an urgent need for further development of a public health response.
Intimate partner violence is responsible for more ill-health and premature death in Victorian women under the age of 45 than any other of the well-known preventable risk factors, including high blood pressure, obesity and smoking.
This was the finding of a study by Professor Theo Vos and his team with support from VicHealth and the Department of Human Services in 2003, following a review of the causes of poor mental health that indicated violence among women was an especially common phenomenon that had serious mental health impacts.
Mental health is one of VicHealth's priority areas for action. Freedom from discrimination and violence is one factor we have identified as being particularly important for good mental health. Accordingly, we conducted the study on The Health Costs of Violence to determine how we could support primary prevention of violence against women.
The study is the first in the world to estimate the health consequences of intimate partner violence using the 'burden of disease' methodology developed by the World Health Organisation (WHO). The WHO itself released a World Report on Violence and Health in 2002, which aimed 'to challenge the secrecy, taboos and feelings of inevitability that surround violent behaviour, and to encourage debate that will increase our understanding of this hugely complex phenomenon'.
WHO have also released a technical report based on our document in the September 2006 edition of the Bulletin of the World Health Organisation.
Sometimes referred to as domestic violence, family violence or relationship violence, intimate partner violence refers to violence occurring between people who are, or were formerly, in an intimate relationship. Intimate partner violence can occur on a continuum of economic, psychological and emotional abuse, through to physical and sexual violence. Although men are among the victims of intimate partner violence, evidence suggests that the vast majority of victims are women and that women are more vulnerable to its health impacts.
The findings of the study present a serious challenge to society's views that intimate partner violence is somehow less serious than violence committed in other contexts and is a matter to be resolved in the privacy of the home.
This report not only gives us an insight into the effects of violence on women's lives – it prompts the hard questions about how we inform, educate and change the behaviour that leads to partner violence.

NEW YORK (AP) - There are no specific terror threats against New York City but the NYPD still plans a major show of force for 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.
Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said Wednesday that police will form a frozen zone around the World Trade Center site. They'll flood it with thousands of extra officers for the Sunday observance there with President Barack Obama and former President George W. Bush in attendance.
The beefed up security also will include hundreds of surveillance cameras trained on the site.
The commissioner said the department will deploy "quick strike reaction forces" to respond to potential threats outside lower Manhattan. The teams include officers in heavy armor, bomb squad technicians and hostage negotiators.
New Yorkers also will see extra subway patrols.
