Abortion now legal in Victoria Australia
The Victorian parliament has seen fit to end the draconian years of illegal abortion in our state.
Finally the most basic of civil rights for women has been recognized, despite threats by protestors, to make a choice concerning their own bodies, and to not be forced by laws to bring unwanted children into this world.
Lets hope our govt makes more progress in relation to other lifestyle choices where govts impose the ill informed choice of a minority upon its citizens.

Burma tragedy ,the bad guys win while many suffer.
While their citizens suffer:
: Burmese generals relabel what little aid they allow in, with their own names .
: Two days before Cyclone Nargis hit, India's Meteorological Department warned the junta's minions it was coming, and where.
: Burma's state-owned media issued no mass alerts
:Disaster assessment teams and helicopters from the United States have been blocked from coming in to prepare a huge rescue, and foreign aid teams not already in-country had their applications for visas stalled and aid shipments stopped.
Foreign journalists, whose reports would help raise appeal money, have been banned
The misinformation spouted by people like Al Gore blaming this disaster on global warming ignores scientific fact that the world hasn't warmed in the last decade. Meanwhile these people are suffering while their tryannical leaders claim glory for what little aid they allow in. China is Burma's only real ally now after the remainder of the world distanced themselves from the slaughter of Burmese people. This is the Olympic host's way of repression.
