Pure Hate
Right now, on the other side of the world, there’s a bunch of people who hate you and we mean absolutely despise you. But don’t worry, they hate everyone else in Australia. These so-called “Christians” hate us so much they actually rejoice in our suffering. The tragic bushfires of 2009? Those devastating floods earlier this year? Apparently, we deserved it all. You see, according to the folk of the Westboro Independent Baptist Church, all Australians are damned to Hell and they’ve reserved a specially fiery spot just for Liz Hayes.

End of the Line
The Japanese love their sushi. And over the past couple of decades, the rest of the world has come to love it too – maybe a little too much. Salmon and eel stocks are dwindling. But it’s the blue fin tuna that’s most at risk. This majestic creature – known in Japan as the King of Sushi – is being hunted to extinction. Bob Simon, of the American 60 Minutes program, went in search of the bluefin and discovered what happens when tradition and big business collide.
Faith, Love and Happiness
Nicole Kidman has certainly had her highs and lows. Publicly, she’s lived the Hollywood dream of fame and fortune. Privately, she’s faced the same struggles of many modern women. The pain of divorce. The heartbreak of miscarriage. Now at the age of 44, our Nic is positively blooming. A loving marriage and a new family have brought her the happiness that eluded her for so long. And when Karl Stefanovic caught up with her in Los Angeles, she had the glow of any new mum – busting to talk about baby Faith and the birth that caught everybody by surprise.
