Well done guys. No really. Top effort. #dikileaks We can't be expected to right the wrongs of the world, and we can't be expected to take responsibility for the actions of every silly little kid getting in over her head. However, much like the loop of the young woman screaming in her Youtube video, played over and over and over again on 60 Minutes last night, we've had a teenager calling out for help for months now and instead of helping her we've egged her on, eager to see what comes next.

A formal request has been made to the Australian Auditor General to audit BoM's official Australian temperature record and the methods used by BoM to adjust the Australian raw temperature data.

Flying blind on climate policy Exactly what problem are we trying to solve with the carbon tax announcement? What results can we expect the carbon price policy to achieve by 2020 and can we be sure this will actually happen?

Assange extradition fears are real In theory, it ought to be difficult for the US to demand the extradition of Julian Assange. But the reality is the Swedes will succumb to political pressure.
