DON'T TRUST THE WEB<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/29511/0/>
Reporter: Hagar Cohen
The internet is awash with misinformation, manipulated identities, fake reviews, and dishonest comments. Politicians use astroturfing. So do businesses and marketing firms. Beware-its infecting everyone.

MONEY FOR EMPTIES<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/29419/0/>
Reporter: Di Martin
Container deposit schemes operate in many parts of the world, in SA, and soon in the NT. Why will some firms go to great lengths to prevent them? Politicians often fear the financial and strategic might of big business - even when it's about who picks up the drink can or the beer bottles.

NOWHERE TO LIVE<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/29194/0/>
Reporter: Anita Barraud
Rents are rising even in country towns, and more people are forced into caravan parks, the back rooms of old pubs - or the river bank - even with young children. It can happen to anyone. It will get worse. Various attempts to create more places for people to live at cheap rent are not meeting the need.

SOCCER AND TECHNOLOGY<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/29071/0/>
Reporter: Tim Long
Soccer is the biggest sport in the world and an enormous business. Millions can be lost through a wrong call made by a person with a whistle. Why won't FIFA allow the technology now common in other sports? The controversy is raging over line ball technology.

AMOS OZ ON FANATICISM<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/28810/0/>
Speaker: Amos Oz
Renowned Israeli writer, poet, activist, and historian Amos Oz talks about the most urgent topic of our time-fanatics on all sides of politics and religion. If the UN agrees to recognise Palestine he hopes Israel will be the first to embrace the decision-and move on from there. The Ervin Graf Memorial Oration at the Shalom Institute.
Also Charles Massy talks about the $10 billion collapse of the wool industry in Australia.

AUDITING THE AUDITORS<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/28586/0/>
Reporter: Stan Correy
Where does the buck stop when big banks and corporations, even nations collapse. Who signs off on the books?  The auditors or the board directors. And who should tell investors when there's something shifty going on?

NBN UNDER FIRE<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/19333/0/>
Reporter: Di Martin
The NBN business model is under fire<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/29512/0/> from Professor Joshua Gans for being ant-competitive. Di Martin looked at the value of the NBN last year in her program HANGING BY A FIBRE<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/19333/0/> .

TAXING MINES<http://abcmail.net.au/t/1503572/553073/25265/0/>
Reporter: Stan Correy
As the government puts its carbon tax before the parliament and the value of Australia's resource and energy exports rises to $175 billion for the last financial year, it is a good time to reflect on what went wrong with the "super-profits tax" put forward by former PM, Kevin Rudd. Why did it fail?
