Tomorrow the Australian Senate will debate the National Radioactive Waste Management Bill. The Traditional Owners of the site in the bill, the Muckaty Land Trust are deeply divided over this issue. A Federal Court case contesting the nomination and selection process has been brought by some of these traditional owners. This case has not yet been heard. Ask the Senate to wait until the case has been heard before they consider the bill: http://www.oxfam.org.au/act/take-action/close-the-gap/2011-06-stop-parliamentary-debate-on-radioactive-waste-legislation

Lyrics, the arrangement, the atmosphere….just beautiful.
Submissions for Volume 1 are now closed. In the next few days, we’ll be announcing a pre-order campaign for Volume 1, which is due out at the end of July.
For Volume 1, we have writers from as far as Ireland and India and Iowa represented. Some are new and never-before-published, and some are veterans. And we also have a special interview and new writing from Chicago novelist and playwright, Joe Meno. Good news all around.
