Deloitte, Cray launch supercomputer-driven threat analytics service
Deloitte Advisory Cyber Risk Services and Cray have launched what they claim to be the first commercially available supercomputing threat analytics service.
Deloitte Advisory Cyber Risk Services and Cray have launched what they claim to be the first commercially available supercomputing threat analytics service.
Perth-based cyber safety outfit, Family Zone, is looking to raise $5.5 million as it moves towards a listing on the ASX in August.
IBM is using the cognitive analytics capabilities of Watson to ingest the company's DNS logs and traffic passing through its global network to identify cyber issues.
IBM has launched a National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) to be led by former AFP national manager of intelligence, Kevin Zuccato.
NEC Australia will spend $4.38 million to build a cyber security centre in Adelaide.
The National Broadband Network (NBN) could prove to be a best friend to cyber criminals, according to the head of the Australia's National Computer Emergency Response Team (AusCERT).
It may take a major event, such as the undermining of a big four bank or Australia's national information infrastructure, until the Australian Government dedicates the resources needed to combat cyber security, according to the Australian Federal Police (AFP).
The U.S. White House is determined to follow through on its efforts to make cybersecurity a top priority, despite earlier government efforts that have fallen flat, a top official said Wednesday.
Nations increasingly touched by cyberattacks are still in the very early stages of figuring out how to deal with incidents that could escalate into critical national security threats.
Three cybersecurity groups want to create a network of organizations and people focused on securing the Internet in an effort to combat malicious software.
The consequences of a cyber-attack can be devastating, such as loss of customer confidence, ruined reputation and costly legal ramifications. Not to mention the potential destruction of your entire business. To be fully effective, cyber security must be proactively managed and owned at board level. Not not just by the IT department. It needs to be broad in scope, and senior management needs to recognise that it's a whole of business challenge.

Stamps, collectors tell stories
For Philatelic Society's members, hobby addictive
They measure on average just 3/4 of an inch, but what stories they tell – and so do the people who collect them.
Since 1934, members of the Inland Empire Philatelic Society have been meeting to swap stamp stories and share their collections.
At a recent meeting at Riverview Retirement Community, this weekend's stamp show was the topic of conversation, but it didn't take long for board members to pull out binders and folders filled with stamps.
"It started as a project with my son 30 years ago," Chuck Jones said. "Then he discovered girls, computers and sports and lost interest. I became the warehouse."
His son's name is Casey Jones and the collection his father took over has a railroad theme. Stamps from railways adorn personalized Casey Jones envelopes or "covers."
"Like any hobby, this has its own vocabulary," Jones said
And like any hobby, stamp collecting can be addictive. Jones pointed to club president JW Palmer. "He has a room dedicated to stamps!"
Palmer shrugged. "My aunt started me on it when I was 6 years old." Fifty years later his collection is still growing.
He said there are two basic types of collections – simple and thinking. "A thinking collection involves a lot of research."
David Oldfield's collection is an example of an exquisitely researched project. For 30 years he's been collecting Canadian stamps. "I was born in Canada and moved to the U.S.," he said.
Each page features detailed descriptions of not only the stamps, but often the senders and receivers. Like a treasure hunter on the trail of buried gold, Oldfield mines the Internet for clues to the identities of people who mailed letters decades ago.
He has an envelope addressed to William Howard Taft in New Haven, Conn., and mailed from the Palace Hotel in Quebec. Using the cancellation marking, Oldfield traced Taft's Canada visit and connections.
Other collections tend toward the amusing. Marilyn Miller's chickens, for example. Miller is rather new to the hobby. "I started four years ago when I inherited a stamp collection that belonged to my dad."
Her chicken exhibit features whimsical poultry stamps paired with chicken quotes by famous figures and stamps bearing that person's likeness. For instance, one side of the page has a Bob Hope stamp followed his quote, "The only thing chicken about Israel is their soup." A stamp with the likeness of a fluffy yellow chick is affixed to the opposite side of the page.
It's not the tiny scraps of paper themselves that so fascinates philatelists– it's the history behind them. Facts flew across the room.
• Latvia printed its stamps on the backs of German maps because of a paper shortage.
• A field post office, or FPO, is set up by the military during time of war or deployment to provide free mail access for the troops.
• Perfins are stamps with perforations in the form of an initial or symbol through its face. The perforations identify the owner of the stamp and were produced by businesses to discourage theft or misuse of their stamps.
• A bourse is a meeting of collectors/dealers where stamps and covers are sold or exchanged.
The cross-collecting appeal of stamps also draws many enthusiasts. Baseball fans may start with cards and branch into baseball stamps. Likewise, those who collect dolls or cars are sometimes tickled to discover a whole new way to expand their hobby.
This weekend's stamp show will give area philatelists an opportunity to browse through the offerings of seven dealers. With 89 members on its mailing list, the Inland Empire Philatelic Society expects to host quite a crowd. The organization also has found a way to spread the stamp collecting gospel to a new generation.
On the second Saturday of each month, members Maryann and Dennis Christman host a philatelist youth group at Vintage Post Card and Stamps on North Hamilton Street.
Maryann Christman said, "We teach them what a wonderful hobby this is because you learn so much about the world."
Her husband, Dennis, related the tale of an 8-year-old boy who was interested in an old stamp from Portugal. The stamp featured a knight astride a horse. Christman asked the boy if he could discover who the knight on the horse was. "It was little tiny figure," Christman recalled. "But the next month he came back with a page full of information. It turns out that knight was the king of Portugal."
Club president Palmer said philatelists share one common quality: "You just have to be curious."

Tim Scott offers a perspective his colleagues need to hear
Sen. Tim Scott (R-S.C.) holds a rather unique position on Capitol Hill. The lawmaker, appointed and then elected to his seat, is the only African-American Republican in the chamber, and the only black senator of either party to get elected in the South since Reconstruction.
This background took on added salience last night, when Scott addressed one of the nation's most pressing and more important national debates. Vox had a good piece on the senator's striking remarks.
A common response to the outcry over police misconduct is to almost immediately blame the victim -- he had a criminal record, he didn't listen to the police, and so on. But what happens when the victim to such misconduct is a United States senator with a clean record?On Wednesday, Republican Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina gave a heartfelt speech in which he spoke about some of the abuses by police that he, as a black man, had dealt with. The speech, Scott said, was meant to show that in some instances -- he insisted that most cops mean well -- police officers are in the wrong, targeting someone solely because of his skin color.
The entirely of Scott's speech is online here.
The GOP lawmaker talked about having been pulled over seven times in one year, and in most of the instances, "I was pulled over for nothing more than driving a new car in the wrong neighborhood or some other reason just as trivial."
Scott shared the details of a case in which an officer stopped him -- a sitting U.S. senator -- on suspicion of his car being stolen. "I started asking myself, because I was smart enough to not ask him, 'Is the license plate coming in as stolen? Does the license plate match the car?'" he said. "I was looking for some rational reason that may have prompted him to stop me on the side of the road."
Scott added, "I do not know many African-American men who do not have a very similar story to tell no matter the profession, no matter their income, no matter their disposition in life.... Imagine the frustration, the irritation, the sense of a loss of dignity that accompanies each of those stops."
He went on to acknowledge having "felt the anger, the frustration, the sadness, and the humiliation that comes with feeling like you're being targeted for nothing more than being just yourself.... [T]here is absolutely nothing more frustrating, more damaging to your soul than when you know you're following the rules and being treated like you're not."
At GOP convention, toy guns are banned, but real guns are not
Four years ago, as Republicans were getting ready for their national convention in Tampa, Mayor Bob Buckhorn worked with law-enforcement officials to create as safe an environment as possible, including a ban on items that might be considered security threats. As we discussed at the time, that meant people outside the convention would face restrictions on things like water pistols and placards.
Under Florida law, however, officials couldn't prohibit people from carrying real guns around the convention site, even if they wanted to. Tampa's mayor asked Gov. Rick Scott (R) to use his discretion and make an exception to the state law in the interest of security and public safety. Scott refused.
Four years later, the Wall Street Journal reports on an eerily similar situation.
Cleveland officials said Wednesday that they will uphold the right of protesters at the Republican National Convention to carry firearms even as they expressed opposition to the state's open carry laws.Speaking to reporters in advance of the Republican National Convention next week, both Cleveland Mayor Frank G. Jackson and police Chief Calvin Williams they were bound by the state's laws allowing people to carry guns even if they disagreed with them.
The same report added, however, that city officials have already banned "a wide array of items inside a broad zone in downtown Cleveland around the convention site, including water guns, toy guns, knives, aerosol cans, rope, tennis balls and others."
Remember, we're not talking about what's allowed inside the convention hall itself, where security will be very tight for obvious reasons. Those who attend the convention will not be allowed to carry firearms.
Presumptive Republican nominee can't shake 'Trump U' controversy
There were quite a few surprises in the new lineup for Republican speakers at the party's national convention, but the Tampa Bay Times flagged one of the names that stood out.
Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, whose ties to Donald Trump have been a source of controversy, will have a prime-time speaking appearance at next week's Republican National Convention.Bondi is scheduled to give a five-minute address at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday on the subject of law enforcement.... As the state's chief legal officer, Bondi is the target of ethics complaints over her solicitation of a $25,000 campaign contribution from Trump in 2013.
As we've discussed before, the details surrounding Florida's conservative A.G. paint an unflattering picture. Bondi briefly considered joining a multi-state suit against the controversial "school," but the Florida Republican dropped the investigation after the Trump Foundation made a $25,000 contribution towards Bondi's re-election.
And while that raises serious ethics questions, the controversy became more serious when we learned Bondi "personally solicited" the money from Trump while her office was considering a case against "Trump University."
It's against this backdrop that Trump and Republican officials have invited Bondi to deliver a high-profile, prime-time speech "on the subject of law enforcement"? Is this some kind of joke?
Norm Ornstein called the decision "cringe-worthy," which seems quite fair under the circumstances.
Opioid bill to become law, but not without grumbling
The good news is, Congress has approved legislation addressing an important issue, and with bipartisan backing, the policy is on its way to becoming law. The bad news is, the bill should have been a whole lot better.
Congress sent President Barack Obama a compromise bill Wednesday aimed at curbing abuse of heroin and other drugs, a nationwide epidemic that kills more than 100 Americans every day.The overwhelming 92-2 Senate vote comes just days before the seven-week congressional break. It was a welcome political development for vulnerable Republicans such as Ohio's Rob Portman and New Hampshire's Kelly Ayotte, who pushed for the measure before they faced constituents.
This same bill passed the House by a similar margin a few days ago. As the New York Times' report explained, the measure intends to "strengthen prevention, treatment and recovery efforts, largely by empowering medical professionals and law enforcement officials with more tools to help drug addicts. It would also expand access to a drug that emergency medical workers could use to help reverse overdoses and improve treatment for the incarcerated."
The White House announced that President Obama will sign the bill, but the administration isn't exactly thrilled with the way the legislation turned out. "Congressional Republicans have not done their jobs until they provide the funding for treatment that communities need to combat this epidemic," the White House said in a written statement.
The process wasn't supposed to work this way. As regular readers may recall, in March, the Senate approved the Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) on a 94-to-1 vote. Stakeholders assumed the bipartisan package was well on its way.
It wasn't. The GOP-led House said the Senate bill invested too much in prevention, and not enough in enforcement, so the lower chamber went its own way. Both chambers eventually passed their own competing alternatives, and the resulting compromise is what is now headed to the Oval Office for a signature.
But there's a reason Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) called the bill "a half-measure."
One year later, Obama gets the last laugh on Iran deal
It wasn't easy, and the process nearly collapsed more than once, but exactly one year ago today, Americans learned of a historic diplomatic breakthrough: the United States and our negotiating partners had completed the Iran nuclear deal.
And despite all the far-right apoplexy, and the dire warnings about the agreement creating a security crisis, the editorial board of the New York Times noted the other day what is plainly true: the nuclear deal "is working" and has "made the world safer."
We now have a score sheet on Iran's compliance with its nuclear commitments from the International Atomic Energy Agency, which is responsible for monitoring Iran's nuclear activities, and from American officials. Since the deal was reached last July, Iran has, as required, removed and placed in I.A.E.A.-monitored storage two-thirds of the 19,000 centrifuges it used for uranium enrichment at a facility at Natanz. It has ended all uranium enrichment, a process that can be used to produce nuclear bomb-grade fuel, and removed all nuclear material from its once-secret facility at Fordow. It has reduced its stockpile of enriched uranium from 12,000 kilograms, with a purity as high as 5 percent, to 300 kilograms, with a purity of no more than 3.67 percent and hence less usable as weapons fuel. The core of a heavy-water reactor at Arak has been filled with concrete.The bottom line: If Iranian officials decided to produce enough fissile material for a nuclear weapon, it would take at least one year; without the deal, it would have taken just two or three months. That has won over some critics of the agreement, like Moshe Ya'alon, who was until recently defense minister of Israel. Last month, he effectively endorsed it and said Iran no longer presented "an existential threat to Israel."
Sustaining the agreement will bring plenty of challenges, but a year ago, critics of the diplomatic solution made a series of hair-raising predictions -- all of which, at least for now, have failed to come to fruition.
Indeed, congressional Republicans did everything they could think of -- including taking the extraordinary step of trying to sabotage American foreign policy while negotiations were still underway -- to derail the agreement. One year later, however, their efforts appear even more misguided, and the Obama administration's assurances appear vindicated.
Of course, President Obama and his foreign policy team, who understandably see this as one of the great foreign policy achievements of this generation, won't be in office much longer. What happens if this administration is replaced by a Trump administration?

Wednesday's Mini-Report, 7.13.16
Today's edition of quick hits:
* U.K.: "Theresa May took over as Britain's prime minister Wednesday, tasked with steering the country through the Brexit crisis. The steely 59-year-old replaced David Cameron, who became the first political casualty of last month's referendum when he announced his intention to quit hours after the result."
* A rather ridiculous choice: "Former London Mayor and Brexit backer Boris Johnson -- who once called President Obama 'hypocritical' and 'perverse' -- will now represent his country on international affairs. Johnson was named Britain's foreign secretary by Prime Minister Theresa May on Wednesday -- on her first day in office."
* ISIS: "Even as it launches waves of terrorist attacks around the globe, the Islamic State is quietly preparing its followers for the eventual collapse of the caliphate it proclaimed with great fanfare two years ago."
* Unlikely: "People attending the Olympics in Brazil next month are unlikely to accelerate the spread of Zika virus around the world, U.S. federal health officials said Wednesday."
* City officials in Cleveland "are planning to pass legislation Wednesday to ensure that transgender people can use public bathrooms that match their gender identity -- a poke in the eye to GOP officials, including Donald Trump, who oppose such efforts and will be in the city next week for the Republican National Convention."
* Good for John Brennan: "The head of the CIA reiterated on Wednesday that he would not allow his agency to carry out brutal interrogations like those called for by Donald Trump, and appeared to suggest he would step down if a future president demanded him to do so."
* There's more than one kind of gun death: "In the past three months, America experienced the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history, with 49 people killed in Orlando, and new data showed that suicide rates have reached a three-decade high. Although mass shootings get most of the attention, experts say that the growing suicide rate reveals the much bigger effect of widespread firearm availability in the United States -- and claim thousands more lives."
Latest polling points to a presidential race at the crossroads
There's quite a bit of new polling out today on the 2016 presidential race, and as it turns out, no matter which candidate you're rooting for, there's fresh data to make you feel good -- and bad.
If you're hoping for a Hillary Clinton victory, you're probably encouraged by new polls showing the presumptive Democratic nominee ahead in Pennsylvania (45% to 36%), Iowa (42% to 39%), Wisconsin (43% to 37%), and Colorado (48% to 35%).
If you're hoping for a Donald Trump victory, you're likely pleased to see polls showing the presumptive Republican nominee leading in Florida (42% to 39%), Pennsylvania (43% to 41%), and tied in Ohio (41% each).
In national polling, the latest McClatchy-Marist survey shows Clinton leading Trump, 42% to 39%, which is good news for the Democrat (she's ahead) and good news for the Republican (he's narrowed the gap).
What are we to make of all of this? I'd recommend keeping a few things in mind.
1. Clinton had a modest lead before and she has a modest lead now. Individual polls are interesting, but it's still the case that it's best to rely on averages. There's some evidence that the race has tightened a bit over the last week or so, but the shift hasn't been especially dramatic.
2. Last week hurt Clinton. Putting aside the question of whether Clinton's email "controversy" had merit, last week didn't do the Democrat any favors. Having every major news organization in the country question a candidate's judgment and competence -- all because of a story related to email server protocols, of all things -- is bound to have an effect. Americans believed the story mattered because they were told the story mattered. What's less clear is whether the damage is permanent or temporary.
Trump picks an odd time to sue a former staffer
It's tempting to assume Donald Trump would have plenty to occupy his time right now: choosing a running mate, preparing for his national nomination convention that begins in five days, trying to close the gap against Hillary Clinton, etc.
But as it turns out, the Republican candidate has also found the time to focus on filing a new lawsuit.
Donald Trump is seeking $10 million from a former aide he accused of leaking confidential information about a public spat between two senior campaign staffers, the Associated Press reported Wednesday.Trump claimed that fired campaign consultant Sam Nunberg went to the press with confidential information in violation of a nondisclosure agreement, which the real estate mogul requires nearly all staffers for his campaign and businesses to sign.
Even by this campaign's standards, it's an odd story. Nunberg was fired last summer for publishing racist messages via social media. He then allegedly leaked word of an affair between two Trump campaign staffers. This leak, Team Trump believes, was a breach of the non-disclosure agreement Nunberg signed.
Which brings us to today's court filing.
The Washington Post's Robert Costa added that Trump reportedly "decided to file a lawsuit in the middle of a general-election campaign because he's furious" with Nunberg.
But that's not much of an explanation. Donald Trump is scheduled to receive a major-party presidential nomination literally next week. He's announcing his running mate in two days. Whether he's furious with Nunberg over campaign gossip or not, it's not unreasonable to think Trump should have some impulse control.

DCRP Review: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W130
By: Jeff Keller, Digital Camera Resource Page (Apr 1, 2008)
While it doesn't really stand out in any one area, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W130 is still a good entry-level compact camera, and one which I can recommend to most folks. It offers very good photo quality, a 4X zoom lens, image stabilization, snappy performance, lots of point-and-shoot features, and excellent battery life. There are some downsides, including a low resolution LCD and a complete...

Confirmed: NeNe Leakes to Guest Star as Swim Coach on 'Glee'
NeNe Leakes indeed lands a guest-starring role on "Glee". Following reports that she was spotted filming on the set of the FOX series, the show's stars Lea Michele and Chris Colfer finally confirmed the news when appearing on "Watch What Happens Live".
Sitting down for an interview with Andy Cohen on Monday night, December 19, the Kurt Hummel of "Glee" said, "We have a new guest star coming on 'Glee'... Miss NeNe Leakes." He later added that the cast member of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" will play a swim coach called Roz Washington.
"We found out that her real name was Linnethia... which I am obsessed with now," Michele shared another story from her experience working with the reality star. "She's awesome.... We literally raided her trailer."
Leakes was previously snapped filming scenes at Venice high school with the cast of "Glee", reportedly recreating a famous scene from "Grease". She is said to appear in at least two episodes: one is set to air January 17, while her second episode is the Michael Jackson tribute edition which is set to air January 24.

Aberystwyth halls closure rally
Hundreds of students are opposing Aberystwyth University's plans to close the historic Pantycelyn halls of residence.
Hundreds of students are opposing Aberystwyth University's plans to close the historic Pantycelyn halls of residence.
Aberystwyth University has said the new, Penglais Farm, residences will include "a dedicated area for Welsh language students, with a particular social area for Welsh speakers."
It said "these are early days" for considering the Pantycelyn building's future, and it will remain as a Welsh medium hall during the 2014/15 academic year.
Aberystwyth University is fully committed to increasing its Welsh medium provision to ensure that our students are able to contribute to maintaining the University's Welsh language community ethos.
The University is investing over £45m at the Penglais Farm residences. This will be located close to the main Hub building and shared by all the Penglais Farm residents.
The new accommodation will be of a very high standard, comprising self-catering flats with between 6 and 8 bedrooms each; they will all have en-suite facilities, kitchen/eating area/lounge and TV.
The University will now begin a business exercise to explore options for the future of Pantycelyn.
Pantycelyn will therefore remain as a Welsh medium hall (as it is currently) during the academic year, 2014/15.
Student representatives have been part of the discussions all along on the nature of the new accommodation and the facilities available to them.
The University will continue its discussions with Welsh medium students, the Pantycelyn Hall committee and UMCA about the Penglais Farm facilities and how to build and develop the Welsh language ethos there.
Calming down tonight with clear spells and cooler temperatures! Setting us up for a decent start to the weekend!
Callum Williams of Wrexham pleaded guilty to causing grievous bodily harm to the woman police officer, assault and damaging property.
RSPCA says at first they thought the caller had confused the animal with a badger.

votes unanimously to merge with DutchCare.
Western region of Metro Melbourne focus | Community Centre and facilities
The Dutch Australian Community Council (DACC) approached DutchCare recently to talk about their property located in Sunshine North. The premises, a community centre with a function room that can seat up to 120 people, has been the home of DACC for many years however, now that their operations are winding down, they felt the building may be of value to us. As a result of the discussions, both organisations were delighted in a merger outcome.
It really was great timing to consider the merger and it has now provided DutchCare | MiCare with a place to base home care and community services in the Western Metropolitan region of Melbourne. In addition, the property has a kitchen and bar and ample storage and is an ideal space for planned activity groups or Cafe Bazaar, the new community program established by New Hope Foundation which will also capture clients from home based and residential services.
While there will be some maintenance required on the property it is an exciting development and one that will support our growth and expansion of community based services in the West.
Anke de Wit & Molly Lowson, congratulations!
Due to the outstanding applications made, Petra announced at the staff party on Thursday 20 July, that there would be two recipients of this year's scholarship award. "Our heartfelt congratulations go to these two staff members, Anke and Molly, who have already made a great contribution to DutchCare and who will now continue their study to further their professional development with us."
Petra went on to say that this opportunity for individual growth, made possible through the Scholarship Fund, is everything that Menno stood for. DutchCare acknowledges and reflects upon this in line with the outstanding work and personal commitment that Menno gave to our organisation. This is an annual award. 2017 applications will be open early in the New Year.
A positive step for both organisations
On 14 July, 2016 the Board of the NRVAQ appointed Petra as the permanent Chief Executive Officer of the Netherlands Retirement Village Association of QLD Inc. Petra has been working with NRVAQ recently and has been a board member for the last ten years. The appointment is a positive one and supports the development of building closer ties between the two.
Petra will continue her role as the CEO of DutchCare Victoria and will be supported by Penni Michael and Olaf Zalmstra and the Snr Management team as needed.

Trader Joe's raises price of 'Two-Buck Chuck'
The popular wine known as "Two-Buck Chuck" will need a new name after the bargain beverage's price was raised.
Over the past decade shoppers at the California Trader Joe's stores paid $1.99 for a bottle of Charles Shaw shiraz or cabernet sauvignon.
The new $2.49 price tag had shoppers searching for new names. Some customers joked that the brand should now be called "Inflation Chuck" or "Upchuck."
Trader Joe's sold about 5 million cases of the wine last year.
The maker, Bronco Wine Co., said it was able to keep the price so low because it owns 45,000 acres of vineyard, which insulated it from large fluctuations in grape prices.
But bad crops in 2011 and 2012 affected the price.

The Government has blocked an attempt from Labour to have Parliament ask for the release of the full agreed text of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) free trade agreement before it is signed.
Labour leader David Cunliffe said he was "disappointed, but not surprised".
Prime Minister John Key said the Government had briefed Labour's trade and foreign affairs spokespeople on the TPP, but Cunliffe said a full and open public debate was needed.
There were definite downsides to the TPP.
Claimed benefits for New Zealand from the 12-country trade partnership, which includes the United States, have ranged between $5.5 billion a year by 2025 to $1b or less.
"We might pay more for medicines, we might be sued by tobacco companies for plain packaging," Cunliffe said.
"There may be benefits for New Zealand exporters in the agreement but without the release of the full text, we have no way of knowing their extent and nature.
"The Government must also reveal whether or not the text makes it more likely New Zealand could be sued by multi-national corporations such as tobacco companies."
Trade Minister Tim Groser said he would not negotiate the agreement "through the media".
"We'll look at any proposal, but the number one thing for the New Zealand government to ensure is that it doesn't limit any future New Zealand government's ability to legislate on public health."
Legislation over plain packaging for tobacco products is due to be debated today.
Groser said the Government was "fully expecting" a legal challenge over plain packaging regardless of the TPP agreement.
"Let's face it, Australia's in the middle of a legal challenge - TPP doesn't exist.
"So we'll never protect either an individual from an attack in a New Zealand court from a legal case, or a future New Zealand government from the possibility of a legal attack, but the key thing is to get the legal framework as robust as you can bat it back."
But Cunliffe said the public needed to be able to debate those issues as well as the trade upsides.
He said Labour had not made the full text public when it signed the free-trade deal with China in its last term in office.
But it had been more open than this government during the negotiation process by including non-government organisations and unions in full, open consultation as the deal was being developed.
He said Labour was reserving its position on signing the TPP until it saw the text and the fine print.
Labour was not asking for the text to be released before the TPP was finalised because that could interrupt the process, but it should be released before it was approved by Cabinet.
NZ First leader Winston Peters said Key was trying to keep the public in ignorance over the TPP.
"But New Zealanders deserve to know what rights are being negotiated away by this government," he said.
"The prime minister is misleading when he says the public will have the chance to have their say on the content of the TPP during the select committee process.
"They will have their say over the associated legislation that New Zealand will have to implement to agree to the terms of the TPP.
"But they will not get a say on the text of the treaty as that will have already been ratified by Cabinet."

Tugs!, an interactive exhibition that will trace the past, present and future of the American tug, tow and barge industry, will open at Mystic Seaport Saturday, May 22.
Designed for visitors of all ages, Tugs! will detail how tugboats play a crucial role in our 21st-century economy that is vital to American commerce and economic success. With more than 5,000 registered tugboats and towboats operating in the U.S., the industry moves more than 800 million tons of raw material and finished goods, including 60 percent of our nation's grain exports and most of New England's home heating oil and gasoline.
Tugs! will present this powerful story through custom-created videos, stories, rare artifacts, images and large-scale graphics, hands-on activities, audio/visual elements and outdoor programming. Original artworks, scale models, and artifacts on loan from Thames Towing, Foss Maritime, the Coast Guard Art Program, Ocean Tug and Barge Engineering, Townsend Marine Associates and private collectors will also be displayed.
Mystic Seaport will celebrate the opening of Tugs! with a special "Tug Blast" weekend, Saturday and Sunday, May 22 - 23, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Visiting tugboats will be docked along the Museum's waterfront and special events throughout the weekend will include radio-controlled tug demonstrations, behind-the-scenes tours, illustrated presentations, line-throwing competitions and tug-related activities and crafts for both children and adults.

World news
China's Ministry of Public Security says it has detained nearly 2000 people in a nationwide crackdown on counterfeit drugs, including some to treat cancer.
It said in a statement on its website Sunday (local time) that it also seized about $180 million (NZ$220 million) worth of fake medicine and false trademark logos.
The statement said the fake drugs were sold for the treatment of hypertension, diabetes, skin diseases and other "complicated illnesses," including cancer.
China has struggled in recent years to combat the production and sale of fake drugs. The director of China's food and drug agency was executed in 2007 for approving deadly fake medicine in exchange for cash.
The government has introduced more regulations in recent years to tighten safety in its drug and food industries.

One way or another, it was an eventful day for James Franklin at Karori Park.
The Wellington captain inserted Plunket Shield leaders Canterbury and then could've dismissed Tom Latham twice.
Instead, opener Latham went to stumps unbeaten on 137 and with his side 292 for five, on a day for the purists.
Deciding to bowl was an interesting call, although it paid early dividends. Former Black Caps Rob Nicol and Dean Brownlie barely bothered the scorers and the loss of the in-form Latham would've more than justified the bowling option.
Unfortunately Franklin couldn't hold a Mark Gillespie-generated nick at third slip, when Latham was on two.
More frustration followed, when Franklin bowled Latham on 62, with the first ball after lunch.
Sadly he'd overstepped, leaving Latham to replace the bails and carry on.
Wellington stuck at it and Andy McKay chipped out Shanan Stewart and Brad Cachopa just before the close, which was fair reward for all the bowlers' toil.
"That second-last over sort of saved our day a bit. Obviously I shelled him [Latham] and bowled him off a no-ball which doesn't help," Franklin said.
Franklin's not noted as a guy who pushes the front line too often, so it was a surprise to see him no-balled in this instance.
When it comes to captaincy these days, everyone's an expert.
Whether it's enforcing follow-ons or not, or bowling or batting first, no-one's shy of being wise after the event.
This Karori Park pitch gave every indication that it would be lifeless after the first session or so, making it impossible to quibble with Franklin in this instance.
"The best time to bowl on these wickets [at Karori] is first up because they just flatten out and become really good decks to bat on, on days two and three," he said.
"We bowled reasonably well in the first hour of the day and obviously if I'd taken the catch things could've ended up a whole lot different.
"But we didn't bowl well the hour before lunch and that hurt us badly. [Henry] Nicholls [70] came out and played very positively and we got the day back with our last two hours of bowling."
Once Nicholls went, it became harder to see what Canterbury were trying to achieve.
Wellington did go defensive, but Latham and Stewart basically ended up having a net and made little effort to keep the game moving.
On another day, Gillespie might've had a good lbw shout against Latham upheld and it wasn't till McKay trapped Stewart in front that the Firebirds broke through.
Cachopa faced a couple of balls before Michael Pollard magically appeared at leg slip, where the batsman tucked the next delivery right down his throat.
Canterbury went to stumps with Latham refusing singles so he didn't put captain Andrew Ellis on strike.
