  • Intrigues and Delights
    AUGUST 2016 SUMMER DRAMA INTRIGUES AND DELIGHTS Sunday nights in the summer are reserved for must-see dramas, and Dancing on the Edge is just that, combining murder and romance with the sultry sounds of 1930s jazz. The stylish new murder mystery series, premiering Tuesdays at 8pm, beginning August 16, written and directed by Stephen Poliakoff (The Lost Prince) follows the rise and fall of the fictional Louis Lester Band, a black jazz band in 1930s London. The band becomes the toast of high society, earning approval from the Prince of Wales, despite the racism and classism they encounter — until Louis finds himself entangled in a murder case. The all-star cast includes Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) as the debonair Louis, John Goodman (O Brother, Where Art Thou?) as an affluent American entrepreneur named Masterson, and Jacqueline Bisset as socialite Lady Cremone, a performance which won her a Golden Globe. Masterpiece favorites Matthew Goode (Downton Abbey) and Joanna Vanderham (The Paradise) also star in the eight-part series. “Dancing on the Edge is a thing of beauty to watch,” states The Hollywood Reporter. Sharing a similar sentiment, British outlet Cultbox proclaims, “With its blend of compelling storytelling, sumptuous period production values and toe-tapping music, Dancing on the Edge has us hooked for what looks to be a thrilling ride.” Want more drama? The highly anticipated ninth and final season of Inspector Lewis on Masterpiece will premiere on Wednesday, August 17 at 9pm. For the last time, Inspector Lewis (Kevin Whately) and CS Hathaway (Laurence Fox) will investigate new cases of murder and other crimes in the academic haven of Oxford, together struggling with personal dilemmas and their future on the force.

  • Chefs and Restaurant Owners Call to Stop Seafood Fraud
    Chefs and Restaurant Owners Call to Stop Seafood Fraud As chefs and restaurant owners, we are committed to serving seafood that protects our oceans, our wallets and our health. Yet as more seafood is imported into the Unites States, our fish follows an increasingly complex path from fishing vessel to plate, increasing the risk of fraud each step of the way and making it more difficult for us to make eco-friendly choices. Despite growing concern about where our nation’s seafood comes from, chefs, restaurant owners and consumers are routinely given little or no information about the fish they purchase. We rely on our purveyors to supply us with high quality, safe, legal and honestly labeled seafood. Unfortunately, the information that travels with each fish is often limited. Recent studies have found that seafood may be mislabeled as often as 25 to 70 percent of the time for popular species like red snapper, wild salmon and Atlantic cod, disguising fish that are less desirable, cheaper or more readily available. With about 1,700 different species of seafood from all over the world now available in the U.S., it is unrealistic to expect chefs and restaurant owners to be able to independently and accurately determine that the fish they are getting is actually the one they paid for. We should be able to tell our customers, without question, what they are eating as well as where, when and how it was caught. We believe that robust traceability standards are needed for all fish sold in the U.S. – both domestic and imported.
