...refueling. Wherever the truth lies, the investigation became a political powder-keg when rumors started to circulate that the Australian Defense Force had footage of Australian navy personnel pushing traumatized refugees from clambering on board their ship.

...Cavanagh's office untangles April's events, one thing is certain: The number of asylum seekers seeking to enter Australia by boat is on the rise. Nine months into 2009, there have already been 1239 recorded "irregular maritime arrivals" in Australia; in 2008, there were only 161 during the whole year.

And this is why Administration officials - after their crash course in run-on-the-bank mentalities cited in Animal Spirits - are trying to boost...
...Trust Me (TNT, Mondays, 10 p.m. E.T., debuting Jan. 26), set in the world of men and advertising. It has the misfortune of sharing this subject with the masterpiece Mad Men, though its period (the present) and tone (comedy-drama) are far different. Mason (Eric McCormack) and Conner (Tom Cavanagh) are partners at a Chicago agency, getting by on caffeine and zingers. It's innocuous fun--Cavanagh (Ed) exhales charm as effortlessly as most mammals do carbon dioxide--but predictable, down to the pilot's last-minute-inspiration-in-the-pitch-meeting climax...
