Is the family album at risk in digital age?
BY DAVID QUICK
Of The Post and Courier Staff
Summertime, with its vacations, long holiday weekends, trips,
weddings and reunions, calls for grabbing the camera to capture
the moments. But will those be caught on film or a "memory
card"? And how will those photographs be stored? Will they be in
traditional photo albums or boxes or on computer hard drives,
DVDs, compact discs, USB storage keys or at numerous Internet
photo sites, such as Shutterfly, Kodak's "Ofoto," and AOL's
"You've Got Pictures"?

Like fashions, foods come in and out of favour. Duncan Markham
reflects on our culinary heritage.
As we rush to discover the newest emporium, embrace the latest dining
fashions and cook slow food while sneaking in some fast food, it is easy to
lose a sense of gastronomic context. How often do we wonder about why
we eat what we do, or think about our foodie past?

Auditing the auditor: what happens when audits fail?
By: Kathy Ruff 06/28/2004
Lawsuit alleges KPMG failed to detect a massive reserve deficiency
with LIG's wholly-owned subsidiary, United Community Insurance
Company, in time for management to take action to correct the
deficiency.
Audits help a company to verify the accuracy of its records and business
procedures, as well as that of its financial statements. But what happens to a
public company when the auditors drop the ball?

IT attracts auditors' unwarranted advances
Michael Crawford, Computerworld,
28/06/2004 08:36:10
IT managers may be attracting the unwarranted advances of an auditor simply due to
inefficient or completely non-existent digital record-keeping controls.
The rapid use of e-mail as a form of work-related correspondence has led to a
disparity in official record keeping because many companies rely on printed
documents as being ideal for this purpose when they are not.
National Archives of Australia acting director of record-keeping standards and policy,
Kathryn Swan, said she isn't entirely sure if IT staff actually know how to keep records.
