Frozen in Time
In 1967 the National Hockey League decided to double its size from six teams to twelve. This expansion was the first of its kind, and Minnesota, with its rich hockey history, was a natural choice for a new franchise. Thus the Minnesota North Stars were born. Frozen in Time examines the organization’s signature seasons, from the late 1970s, when the club was at its worst, to its two surprising runs to the Stanley Cup Finals. The book recalls the exploits of characters such as Wren Blair, the firebrand ex-scout who would become the team’s first coach and general manager, and owner Norm Green, the man who moved the team to Texas in 1993, making him one of the most hated men in Minnesota. He...
Living The Dream
Cornwall has the most beautiful landscape you could wish to set your eyes on, made still more dramatic with the evening silhouette of St Michael’s Mount in the background. That was exactly the view Lori and his Cornish wife, Irene, had as they took over the tenancy of their first public house in the village of Portscatly: a beautiful village with many lively characters, each with their own little story to tell. Jean’s story will tug at your heartstrings, whilst Steve’s tragic tale will show you that a moment of madness can change your life forever. Typical families and friends keep village life moving. The landlord’s foreign name has not gone down too well with the crowd. “It’s enough to make a man curse,” some would say. “And now they are taking over our pubs too,” some others would say. So will Lori and Irene win over the locals, as they tirelessly try to get involved with the local community?
Fuel laundering and smuggling in Northern Ireland
The Committee recognises the commitment and effort of individual HMRC officers in the fight against fuel crime in Northern Ireland, but says that as HMRC was allocated an additional £917 million in 2010-11 to bear down on tax avoidance and evasion across the UK, it should make a more concerted effort to eradicate the problem in Northern Ireland, where it is most prevalent. There is particular disappointment in the lack of progress on developing new "markers": chemicals added to fuel to mark it out as rebated, which are removed to enable it to be fraudulently sold at higher prices. Northern Ireland is estimated to have lost £70 million in 2009-10. Only five years ago this figure was as high...
Toward Assessing Business Ethics Education
Toward Assessing Business Ethics Education, edited by Diane L. Swanson and Dann G. Fisher of Kansas State University, is a sequel to their book Advancing Business Ethics Education in the Ethics in Practice IAP book series. The focus on assessment in this second book is a timely response to the urgent search among business schools for ways to teach and assess ethics at a time when the public’s faith in corporations and business schools has been undermined greatly by the failure of both to respond to widespread corruption and scandals in the business sector. Although no one expects business education alone to resolve these problems, the distinguished scholars represented in this book advocat...
HC 200 - Tobacco Smuggling
There is an urgent need for improvements to the Government's 'Tackling tobacco smuggling' strategy. It is a matter of grave concern that, despite an increase in the resources over the last three years the numbers of arrests, prosecutions and convictions for organised crime cases involving tobacco have all fallen. It is vital that there is no reduction in enforcement action. The time of Jamaica Inn is over and our fight against tobacco smuggling must be a priority. It is most surprising that no UK tobacco manufacturer has ever been fined for over-supply of products to high-risk overseas markets, and that only one statutory warning letter has been issued. The penalties available are too weak and enforcement too rare. An immediate review should be taken against all historic and ongoing cases in order to ensure those who have committed an offence do not go unpunished. The standardised packaging decision should be made on the basis of health. It is vital that consideration of the potential effects on smuggling is thorough and common sense steps are taken to ensure that criminal gangs do not profit from the Government's decision
