He was not given a fine, it was suspended for 12 months. He has essentially escaped consequence, which is just so disappointingly unsurprising for Western Australia.

She knew very well that it would lead to disqualification, but used her platform in a much more powerful way than continuing in the competition. Big respect, she's a badass.

Yeah cool, here's one good thing we can do to make a positive change but fuck doing it because of the other, completely unrelated thing, right?

"And that's not because ancient Romans and Greeks weren't living to a ripe old age.

Per the article: "While average life expectancy before the common era was roughly half of what it is today, the age of 35 was hardly considered 'old' for the time. The median age of death in ancient Greece was, by some estimates, closer to 70 years, which means that half of society was living even longer than that. Hippocrates himself, the famous Greek physician and so-called father of medicine, is thought to have died in his 80s or 90s."

Shame the age didn't give this much attention to the regular defacement of the gorgeous mural just behind this statue that some knob kept painting bible verses over last year.

More details here.

Basically she had written in her diary about her enduring feelings of guilt over the deaths of her children, which is what formed the base of the original case against her. Prosecutors argued that the children were probably smothered, despite there being no physical evidence for that.

A recent enquiry heard new evidence that at least 2 of her children carried a genetic defect that could potentially have caused their deaths, which coupled with the circumstancial nature of the evidence used in the original conviction was enough the NSW governor to pardon her under reasonable doubt. That pardon lead to a trial in the criminal court of appeals which have now acquitted her of the charges.

She was pardoned in June and has subsequently has been acquitted in the criminal court of appeals.

It's my daughter's first birthday today! Mum's at work so it's just me and her celebrating until she gets home. Is it stupid to take a baby to NGV during school holidays?
