The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (``Commission'' or ``CFTC'') is proposing this interpretative statement to provide guidance regarding the applicability of the confidentiality and indemnification provisions set forth in new section 21(d) of the Commodity Exchange Act (``CEA'') added by section 728 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (``Dodd-Frank Act''). The Commission requests comment on all aspects of the proposed interpretative statement. The proposed interpretative statement clarifies that the provisions of section 21(d) should not operate to inhibit or prevent foreign regulatory authorities from accessing data in which they have an independent and sufficient regulatory interest, even if that data also has been reported pursuant to the CEA and Co...
TUCSON, Ariz., Dec. 7, 2010 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- If you go to a hospital, you will probably be asked, aggressively, about your advance directive to withhold or withdraw treatment.

The Roman Catholic Diocese of Portland has settled a lawsuit by a man from Sidney who claimed that church leaders failed to protect him from abuse.

Rule 301 of the code provides: A member in public practice shall not disclose any confidential client information without the specific consent of the client. This apparently straightforward statement, however, can result in burdensome pitfalls for the practicing public accountant, beginning with several important exceptions within its text. The AICPA has also issued guidance that allows CPAs to disclose confidential client information to their liability insurance carrier (AICPA Professional Standards section ET 391.03...
Early in the morning of October 3, President George W. Bush nominated his White House counsel, [Harriet Miers], to replace Sandra Day O'Connor on the U.S. Supreme Court. The Oval Office ceremony lasted less than 15 minutes. Miers has never served as a judge, nor is she a constitutional scholar or a celebrated litigator.

Miers is a respected, though unspectacular, corporate attorney known for handling business disputes--cases that she often settled.
