Australia's homicide rate is very, very low -- and falling steadily. Aussies aren't immune to stupidity, get drunk, get violent, do some bloody business: but they do it much less often than other folks. That was one of the things that surprised me about Australia-- for a place that prides itself on a rough image, people are more consistently civilized and decent to their fellow mate & sheila than they imagine. I looked up some stats, and it turns out that, curiously, Australians express more fear of crime than Americans-- but actually have much violent crime than we do. The one exception is rape, where Oz has slightly more than the US (all number as rate per 100,000) See a comparison of the data here: http://www.nationmaster.com/country-...d-States/Crime |

Speaking of bushfires... okay so not usually at this time of year in Oz but I hear Siberia has had a few bad ones.
We might need to send some water bombers to palo5, though our helicopters-with-water-tubs might not be as big as a modified Ilyushin (IL-76TD?) http://anonym.to/?http://en.wikipedi...6D_of_IRGC.jpg |

Drove 280kms from Melbourne to Deniliquin today to participate in car club driving competitions. Only to get to the track gates and find that due persistent rain making the dirt grounds vulnerable to being torn up by 40 cars tearing it up, the meeting had been cancelled/postponed.
560km round trip for nothing. Thank you very much. |
