Azaria

 Sorry Wendy Harmer, your apology is refused , it came very late.Azaria's body disappeared, the mother sent to prison for three years and now she's innocent. I think, death is not  funny to do jokes about. it is a very serious issue and you should respect and admire it. if don't like to respect death, you should respect the passion of  the mother who lost her daughter and her family too.
when I heart the interview with Linda, i felt she  really is innocent from the sound from her breath'. Whether this  mother is guilty or not, I learnt from this story that you should not Jude before the evidence isr clearly presented.

Mother's Day

                                                             
   Do you know a word more beautiful than "mum"? Do you feel and understand it? Do you have anyone who likes and supports you more than your mother? Who makes your food, washes your clothes and stays all the night near your bed when you are sick? For that and more there are Mother's Day.
 
The earliest Mother's Day celebration was related to the spring festival to honor Rhean, the mother of the Gods , in Greek civilisation. Later,Christians celebrated this day on the fourth Sunday related to honor of Mary, mother of Christ and it was called Mothering Sunday. However, in the modern times Julia Ward Howe and Anna Jarvis had the essential responsibility to bring this day  into existence. Today,the festival of Mothers day is celebrated across 46 countries but on different dates and way.s The most common dates is in March, April or May. For example, in Australia,Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May. This event was first started by Mrs Janet Heyden in 1924 . In Lebanon,  mother's day is on the first day of Spring on 21 of March. 

Children take the day as an opportunity to honor their mothers and  thank them for their efforts  giving them life, helping them to and for supporting them. on this day most families meet and share dinner together. Then,  they give their mothers presents and best wishes. Flowers, chocolates, cakes and cards are the most  popular gifts.

Now , I like to say happy Mother's Day to every mother around the world. you are the best presents from god to us.

Mortal punshment

Girl dies after bed wetting punishment.

In Alaska, a mother and her boyfriend were charged with manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide .  They trapped two girls (a one had one old and other three year old) overnight in their locked bedroom with opened window where the temperature was minus 24 degrees Celsius. The three year old was found died and the second one was  moved to hospital and she suffered from hypothermia. The boyfriend said he was drinking  and he opened the window  to air the room because the girls had wet their beds.
 

 In this story, and in the two other similar stories, the victims were children and the murderers were the parents. The reason for the crimes was punishment and neglect. On the other hand there are some differences between them.
For example, in the first story, the reason  for the death was hypothermia; in the second story it was starvation, and in the last story it was dehydration. Moreover two of children were have a chance to survive but one died.

 Harmony Day 

 


Australia is one of places which consist of a huge amount of diverse cultures. People come from all over the world from different countries, cultures and beliefs to live in Australia together in peace regardless of their background. This diversity makes Australia a great place to live.

On 21st March 1999, Harmony day was created for the first time to give Australians the chance to celebrate their cultural diversity.

Harmony day is managed by the department of Immigration and Citizenship. The 21st March is also the international day for the elimination of racial discrimination.

This year the Harmony Day theme was “Sport: play, engage,inspire”. The purpose is to encourage people to participate in sport and feel every one belong to this country. Orange is the colour chosen to represent Harmony Day.

 Australians from all walks of life celebrate this event to say we are all Australian, we have the same rights and responsibilities, and we understand diversity.
