On This Day:
Tuesday January 8, 2008

This is the 8th day of the year, with 358 days remaining in 2008.

Fact of the Day: insurance

Insurance companies are insured by reinsurers. Reinsurance is the sharing of risk among insurance companies. Part of the insurer's risk is assumed by other companies in return for a part of the premium fee paid by the insured. By spreading the risk, reinsurance allows an individual company to take on clients whose coverage would be too great a burden for one insurer to carry alone.

Greece: Midwife's Day or Women's Day.
