Stand up for Tibet
Australian Tibet Council has organised a peaceful protest today in Martin Place against alleged brutal military crackdown against Tibet by Chinese government. The council is clear: Australian Olympic Committee should boycott carrying of the torch up Mount Everest. Interestingly the message did not call for the total boycott of the Olympics in Beijing.

Homeless and his dog
It seems the news is never good when you are homeless and even your dog can feel the times are tough.
This homeless man is well known to any person who regularly visits the Pitt Street Mall. He is always there with his newspaper and his dog. I think the dog wins him a lot of symphaty as many people stop to say hello and donate a coin or two.

Financial Review
If you follow the markets you are probably aware of serious downturn in the economy underpinned by serious money management errors in USA. However, if you look at this man and his smile while he is reading the Financial Review it seems he invested smartly, so for some the news is always good.
