Malcolm Fraser died
Obituary: Malcolm Fraser
his prime ministership between 1975 and 1983, Fraser was considered patrician, aloof and arrogant, even by some of his supporters. Dubbed the "crazy grazier" by the media and an "Easter Island statue" by Labor opponent and future Labor prime minister Paul Keating, Fraser was a study in contradictions.
He was an economic conservative but a modest social reformer; a Cold War warrior and a fierce opponent of apartheid; a traditionalist with a social conscience he only gave full rein to in his later years.
New South Wales Labor senator and outspoken union leader Doug Cameron said he was "devastated" that Australia had lost a great voice for human rights, while Leader of the Australian Greens Christine Milne said one of Fraser's hallmarks was his "compassion and dedication to building a thriving and peaceful multicultural society".

Steady expansion of Russian military exercises
20 March 2015 Last updated at 02:39 GMT
Russia has announced that 80,000 troops and more than 200 aircraft are taking part in a series of military exercises across the country.
The massive show of force involving the army, navy and air force is believed to be in response to the deployment of American military equipment including tanks in the Baltic states and Poland.
It also comes as Nato holds a series of exercises near Russia's borders.

Dr. Cornel West tells David Letterman that President Obama but doesn’t have the “vocal integrity” to stand up for what’s right and “deliver justice.”
Academic and activist Dr. Cornel West tells David Letterman that President Obama may be a “black face in [a] high place” but doesn’t have the “vocal integrity” to stand up for what’s right and “deliver justice.” And it’s not just Obama who’s guilty, according to West, but people of all races unwilling to fight inequality in the United States—a rampant and insidious inequality that the professor describes as a “moral abomination.”

Most Dangerous Woman in America - The Republican Budget Plan Will Devastate American Families
Most Dangerous Woman in America
Kshama Sawant, the socialist on the City Council,
Sawant is up for re-election this year.is as intense as she is articulate. Sawant, born in India, is a leader of theSocialist Alternative Party. She holds a doctorate in economics from North Carolina State University and before her election to the City Council was a professor at a community college. She knows that there will be no genuine reforms, let alone systemic change, without the building of radical mass movements and a viable third party.
Sawant believes that because of the presidency of Barack Obama—who has served corporate power, expanded imperial wars, carried out a massive assault on civil liberties and failed to address the needs of the mounting numbers who are unemployed or underemployed—many people, especially young people, are hungry for political alternatives to “the two big business parties.” Poll after poll, she pointed out, shows the American majority to be disgusted with the Congress.
The goal of this campaign should be to launch a massive grass-roots effort nationwide, and to build on it after the election, something that Ralph Nader failed to do. We have to provide a place for people looking for something different, especially the younger generation.
