With the guidance of medical experts, the following explains how prisoners are executed in the USA.
In the U.S, lethal injection is by far the most common method of execution and because it is the most frequently used, it is the most 'botched'.
by Hamish Chitts, Scottish (MacGregor & Fraser clans)
Many allies of the struggle for Aboriginal sovereignty still proudly identify as being Australian. While many understand some of the history of genocide and theft on this continent they fail to understand how their Australian identity perpetuates that genocide and theft. We also need to learn and understand that the notion of being Australian and the country of Australia was not founded on feelings of independence but founded on ideas of white supremacy.

An international aid group is giving cash directly to the extreme poor via cheap mobile phones...
The world is an extremely unfair place with inequality at horrendous levels.
Almost one third of humanity is deprived of the most basic needs.
2.2 billion people currently live on less than $2 a day.
And of those, 1 billion live in extreme poverty, trying to survive on just $1.25 per day.
Hundreds of millions are forced to exist without access to a reliable clean water source or proper sanitation.

On April 23, 2015, London’s Court of Appeal handed down a judgement of the Beavis v Parking Eye case. This case concerned parking charges that can legally be issued by private parking companies in the United Kingdom (England and Wales). As the private parking scene in the UK bears many similarities to the private parking industry in Australia, the decision could have an indirect impact on court decisions made in Australia. The case concerned a retail supermarket car park that had two hours of free parking.

We all want quality infrastructure and community services but are we really getting good value?
The community group Ecotransit Sydney says some projects are costing taxpayers obscene amounts.
It has just produced a video report on a small suburban building project which appears to be costing and arm and a leg.
Entitled “The tiny tunnel that costs more than a high school”, it's had more than 1000 views in just 4 days.

The exclusive article in todays Telegraph exposing budget plans to build new prisons shows the government has lost its way.
Internationally prisons are being closed due to the immense costs and damage of isolating people rather than solving the social problems.
Aboriginal youth are now half of all juvenile prisoners.
Trying to look tough and ignoring the failure is a dreadful crime against our community” said Justice Action Coordinator Brett Collins.
From the 26th till 28th of June the art installation S.O.S. Australia –restoring dignity will take place in Berlin.
The installation is about Yolngu people and their struggle for land rights, self-determination and a treaty.
The installation was developed in cooperation with Michele Harris from 'concerned Australians' and with the support of Yolngu people from Arnhem Land. It will be dedicated to Michele Harris.
