The MEDIUM-TERM Oil Market Report

The MEDIUM-TERM Oil Market Report
To understand the dynamics and trends in the oil market, accurate, timely and comprehensive information is invaluable. The International Energy Agency (IEA) strives to improve, expand and provide the best data and analysis available. With this objective in mind, we are delighted to introduce the Medium-Term Oil Market Report, a new annual publication with interim updates that will look further into the future, beyond the Oil
Market Report. We believe this additional focus will help to fill the gap that exists between our shorter-term analysis and the longer-term projections that appear in the World Energy Outlook and other IEA work.
The Medium-Term Oil Market Report provides a global overview of demand and supply trends through to 2011 based on the pressures that would develop under existing market forces and plans. We consider it a guide to the future assuming current trends persist. Any unforeseen shifts in the global economy, geopolitics, or other factors could of course produce different results. [more...]

2008 Real Estate Capital Markets Industry Outlook: Top Ten Issues
Given the cyclical nature of the commercial real estate (CRE) industry, and the level of commentary coming from the press, it’s more important now than ever to take a closer look at key issues facing CRE in order to invest strategically. While the debate rages as to whether CRE will be “fine until 09,” or headed for more immediate challenges in 2008, the facts and related issues themselves tell a compelling story, especially as the CRE industry weathers the current credit crunch. The goal of this tenth report of a series is to provide insight into where the CRE market is headed by taking a step back and reviewing critical issues, core fundamentals and underlying factors.

Here is a sample of findings discussed in the report:
In a finding that may be surprising to some, most data
breaches investigated were caused by external sources.
Breaches attributed to insiders, though fewer in number, were
much larger than those caused by outsiders when they did
occur. As a reminder of risks inherent to the extended enterprise,
business partners were behind well over a third of breaches, a
number that rose five-fold over the time period of the study.

The Art of Africa: A Resource for Educators

The Art of Africa: A Resource for Educators
Works of art communicate vital and important aspects of the cultures in which they were created. By studying art from Africa, students come to understand the central role it plays in the customs, belief systems, social organizations, and political systems of African societies. This publication presents African art and culture through a focus on primarily traditional sculpture, textiles, metalwork, and ceramics in the African art collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Educators and their students can study these works of art solely in the classroom or, ideally, in preparation for a visit to the Metropolitan or to their local museum.
In these pages, we provide background information for educators about African culture and history as well as detailed information about selected works of art. Teachers may adapt the content to the interests, skills, and abilities of their students and may use suggested interdisciplinary connections to social studies, language arts, and studio arts curricula.
