Slavery is often hidden in homes, in restaurants, on farms and on building sites. What is common to all of these examples, is that someone is being exploited and controlled.
Modern Slavery in Numbers
40.3 million people live in slavery globally
15.4 million victims of forced marriage
24.9 million people in forced labour
16 million people exploited in global supply chains in the private economy
4 million people in forced labour imposed by state authorities
4.8 million people in forced sexual exploitation
Types of Modern Slavery
Modern slavery is an umbrella term that is used to describe human trafficking, slavery and slavery-like practices.
Human trafficking
Slavery
Servitude
Forced Labour
Debt Bondage
Deceptive recruitment for labour or services
Forced Marriage
Worst forms of child labour
Why does Modern Slavery occur?
Modern slavery persists today due to a number of root causes and drivers.
Poverty: Although significant progress has been made to reduce global poverty rates, today more than 780 million people live below the international poverty line. Poverty encompasses more than a lack of income. Its manifestations include hunger, malnutrition, limited access to education and other basic services. Those who are marginalised and excluded are particularly susceptible to abuse.
Discrimination and marginalisation: Women, children, migrants and refugees, ethnic and religious minorities often face discrimination and are vulnerable to enslavement. At particular risk are those fleeing war and armed conflict.
Civil disruption and armed conflict: The instability caused by armed conflict can displace communities and expose communities to extreme harm and exploitation, including forced labour networks. Already marginalised groups are particularly at risk fleeing war and armed conflict.
Weak rule of law and impunity: Slavery thrives in contexts where there is the law enforcement system is weak or absent. In some cases, slavery is supported by the local authorities and police. Legal frameworks require enforcement to ensure that human traffickers do not operate with impunity.
Natural disasters: Natural disasters can displace communities and increase the desperation of marginalised groups. Traffickers prey upon displaced people. In dire situations, displaced people are often vulnerable to false offers and are forced to seek out perilous employment.
Slavery in Australia
Modern slavery happens here in Australia.
Over 1,900 people in Australia are victims of modern slavery
Only 1 in 5 victims are detected in Australia
Types of modern slavery offences referred to the Australian Federal Police
(2020-2021)
Some groups of people are also more vulnerable than others. For example, backpackers, international students, asylum seekers and migrants on limited working visas may not know their rights in Australia.
In 2020 alone, Anti-Slavery Australia helped over 380 people who had been trafficked to or from Australia, or had faced slavery-like conditions while in Australia, including forced marriage, servitude and forced labour.
But this is just the tip of the iceberg. In Australia, only 1 in 5 victims of slavery are identified. That means that 80% of victims do not get the support they need and remain in slavery in Australia. And this means that the cases we see are likely to be a small proportion of the scale of trafficking and slavery in Australia.
Faces of Modern Slavery in Australia
Case Studies
Here are real world examples, with names of individuals and businesses changed, to explain the different kinds of exploitation seen by Anti-Slavery Australia and considered in Australian courts.

Allergies are very common. They're thought to affect more than 1 in 4 people in the UK at some point in their lives.
They're particularly common in children. Some allergies go away as a child gets older, although many are lifelong.
Adults can develop allergies to things they were not previously allergic to.
Having an allergy can be a nuisance and affect your everyday activities, but most allergic reactions are mild and can be largely kept under control.
Severe reactions can occasionally occur, but these are uncommon.
Substances that cause allergic reactions are called allergens.
The more common allergens include:
grass and tree pollen – an allergy to these is known as hay fever (allergic rhinitis)
dust mites
animal dander, tiny flakes of skin or hair
food – particularly nuts, fruit, shellfish, eggs and cows' milk
insect bites and stings
medicines – including ibuprofen, aspirin and certain antibiotics
latex – used to make some gloves and condoms
mould – these can release small particles into the air that you can breathe in
household chemicals – including those in detergents and hair dyes
Most of these allergens are generally harmless to people who are not allergic to them.
Allergic reactions usually happen quickly within a few minutes of exposure to an allergen.
They can cause:
sneezing
a runny or blocked nose
red, itchy, watery eyes
wheezing and coughing
a red, itchy rash
worsening of asthma or eczema symptoms
Most allergic reactions are mild, but occasionally a severe reaction called anaphylaxis or anaphylactic shock can occur.
This is a medical emergency and needs urgent treatment.
See a GP if you think you or your child might have had an allergic reaction to something.
The symptoms of an allergic reaction can also be caused by other conditions.
A GP can help determine whether it's likely you have an allergy.
If they think you might have a mild allergy, they can offer advice and treatment to help manage the condition.
If your allergy is particularly severe or it's not clear what you're allergic to, they may refer you to an allergy specialist for testing and advice about treatment.
Find out more about allergy testing
In many cases, the most effective way of managing an allergy is to avoid the allergen that causes the reaction whenever possible.
For example, if you have a food allergy, you should check a food's ingredients list for allergens before eating it.
There are also several medicines available to help control symptoms of allergic reactions, including:
antihistamines – these can be taken when you notice the symptoms of a reaction, or before being exposed to an allergen, to stop a reaction occurring
decongestants – tablets, capsules, nasal sprays or liquids that can be used as a short-term treatment for a blocked nose
lotions and creams, such as moisturising creams (emollients) – these can reduce skin redness and itchiness
steroid medicines – sprays, drops, creams, inhalers and tablets that can help reduce redness and swelling caused by an allergic reaction
For some people with very severe allergies, a treatment called immunotherapy may be recommended.
This involves being exposed to the allergen in a controlled way over a number of years so your body gets used to it and does not react to it so severely.
Allergies occur when the body's immune system reacts to a particular substance as though it's harmful.
It's not clear why this happens, but most people affected have a family history of allergies or have closely related conditions, such as asthma or eczema.
The number of people with allergies is increasing every year.
The reasons for this are not understood, but 1 of the main theories is it's the result of living in a cleaner, germ-free environment, which reduces the number of germs our immune system has to deal with.
It's thought this may cause it to overreact when it comes into contact with harmless substances.
Allergy
A reaction produced by the body's immune system when exposed to a normally harmless substance.
Sensitivity
The exaggeration of the normal effects of a substance. For example, the caffeine in a cup of coffee may cause extreme symptoms, such as palpitations and trembling.
Intolerance
Where a substance causes unpleasant symptoms, such as diarrhoea, but does not involve the immune system.
People with an intolerance to certain foods can typically eat a small amount without having any problems.

This website was designed in 2012 with a scope of covering present and past wrestling in Australia.
The scope will change to prioritise the older stuff and make that a bit more accessible.
Thank you for your patience.
I also have another website (with my good buddy Greg) The Wrestling Roadshow which has more of a global scope. We have a podcast by the same name too and discuss all sorts of wrestling.

Email still ranks as the most effective inbound marketing channel, converting higher than both search and social. Monetate's infographic, featured below, depicts just how much more effective email is than its inbound brethren - ranking highest in both average add-to-cart-rates per session and average conversion rates per session.
Even though, email marketing is extremely effective, studies have shown that consumers open just 20% of email messages. So how do you get your emails to stand-out in your customers already-bombarded inboxes?
Here's some tips on how you can increase open rates and tap into email conversion power today:
1) Segment, Segment, Segment - As the infographic puts it "Don't Batch and Blast." Using email segmentation, allows you to make messages more relevant to the user and typically results in 30% more open rates and 50% more click-through rates.
One great example laid out in the infographic is segmenting active vs inactive customers and including a promotion code for the inactive customers. This example can be translated to ecommerce by segmenting abandoned carts vs customers - for customers include a 'loyalty coupon code' and for users who have abandoned their cart include a 'first purchase coupon code.'
2) Consistency -The infographic points out that your email campaigns should lead to a relavent landing page with wording, offers and images consistent with your email message. In addition, make sure your emails reflect your store's look and feel. Email is another way of presenting your brand to the consumer and thus the design should match up with all of your other channels.
3) Make it mobile friendly - Studies have shown that almost 27% of emails are opened on mobile devices and Monetate points out that there has been a 74% increase in email views on iPads and a 34% increase on smart phones just within the last few months. When you designing both your email campaign and your landing page, you need to keep your mobile audience in mind.

Lockheed Khrunichev Energia International (LKEI) Proton launch vehicle erection on pad, Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakhstan.
Buran/Energiya on pad.
Assembly on orbit of the International Space Station began with the launch of the U.S.-owned, Zarya control module, built by the Russian company Khrunichev, on November 20, 1998, from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, Kazakstan.
Energia and Khrunichev
After the breakup of the Soviet Union at the end of 1991, two companies prevailed in the giant Soviet space industry, Energia and Khrunichev. With histories stretching back more than half a century, these two giants continue to dominate the Russian space program in the 21st century.
Energia (the Russian word for “Energy”) can lay claim as the founding organization of the Soviet space program. The company traces its history back to May 1946, when the Soviet government set up a small department in the design section of a new institute named NII-88 (or “Scientific-Research Institute No. 88). After the end of World War II, dozens of Soviet engineers, including the famous Sergey Korolev, spent over a year in Germany gathering information on the abandoned German V-2 rocket project. The group returned home to NII-88 to build, at Soviet leader Joseph Stalin's command, a Soviet version of the V-2. Korolev, then 39 years old, was appointed chief designer of Department No. 3 at NII-88, the unit in charge of the V-2 program. At the time, Korolev presided over about 60 engineers and 80 technicians.
In the late 1940s, Department No. 3 successfully produced a Soviet copy of the V-2 known as the R-1, launching the rockets from the barren desert at Kapustin Yar near the Aral Sea. By the early 1950s, Korolev's team had been restructured into a large design organization known as OKB-1 (or “Experimental Design Bureau No. 1”), which in 1956 separated from the NII-88 institute. Through the 1950s, OKB-1's influence grew as it designed the first Soviet nuclear-tipped missile, known as the R-5M (called the SS-3 by Americans), and the world's first submarine-launched ballistic missile, the R-11FM. In 1954, the Soviet government approved Korolev's ambitious plan to build an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) known as the R-7 (or SS-6). In August 1957, this missile successfully flew 6,500 kilometers from a new launch site in Kazakhstan (now called Baikonur) all the way to the eastern tip of the Soviet Union. It was the world's first successful ICBM launch.
Korolev, a spaceflight enthusiast since his youth, convinced the Soviet government that he could launch a satellite into orbit around the Earth using the same R-7 ICBM. With government approval in hand, on October 4, 1957, Korolev launched the world's first satellite—Sputnik1-into orbit around the Earth, thus inaugurating the era of spaceflight.
In the next ten years-OKB-1's “golden era”-the organization accumulated a series of spectacular achievements. Under Korolev's managerial genius, OKB-1 launched the first human in space (Yuri Gagarin in Vostok in 1961), the first woman in space (Valentina Tereshkova in Vostok 6 in 1963), the first multi-person spaceflight (Voskhod in 1964), and the first spacewalker (Alexei Leonov in Voskhod 2 in 1965). In deep space exploration, OKB-1 launched the first probe to reach the Moon (Luna 2 in 1959), the first to take pictures of the Moon's farside (Luna 3 in 1959), the first to soft-land on the Moon (Luna 9 in 1966), and the first to reach Venus (Venera 3 in 1966). OKB-1 also developed the first Soviet reconnaissance satellites (Zenit 2 and Zenit 4) and the first Soviet communications satellites (Molniya 1), in addition to developing new ICBMs.
OKB-1's great run came to an end with Korolev's untimely death in 1966. From 1966 to 1974, the organization was headed by Korolev's former deputy, Vasily Mishin, who presided over the failed Soviet program to reach the Moon using the giant N1 rocket. It was Mishin, however, who introduced a new generation of piloted spaceships named Soyuz (Russian for “Union”) that were eventually transformed into ferry vehicles for the world's first space stations-named Salyut-launched in the 1970s.
In 1974, OKB-1 merged with a rocket engine design team to form the giant Energia conglomerate. From 1974 to 1989, Energia was headed by Valentin Glushko, the Soviet chief designer for rocket engines. During this period, Energia developed a series of successful Salyut stations that led to the Mir space station, assembled in Earth orbit between 1986 and 1996. The Energia corporation also designed the giant Energia launch vehicle and the Buran Space Shuttle (a near copy of the U.S. Space Shuttle), both of which had to be abandoned in the early 1990s due to lack of money.
Since 1989, Energia has been headed by Yuri Semenov. Through the 1990s, Semenov sustained operations to Mir that culminated in a series of historic joint flights with the U.S. Space Shuttle. Mir was eventually abandoned in 2001 when the International Space Station (ISS) came on line. The Energia corporation supplied the core of the ISS, known as Zvezda (Russian for “Star”), and continues to provide the Soyuz and Progress supply ships for ISS. It also provided the Pirs docking module, and in cooperation with the U.S. company, Spacehab, is offering the Enterprise multi-purpose module for use on the Russian segment of ISS.
In recent years, Energia has tried to enter the commercial market with projects such as SeaLaunch-a cooperative project for launching the Ukrainian Zenit booster from sea-based platforms in which Boeing Commercial Space Company has a 40 percent stake and Energia has a 25 percent share. It has also provided seats to paying customers to fly on the Soyuz spacecraft. Two tourists, one from the United States and one from South Africa, flew to ISS in 2001 and 2002 respectively.
Energia, officially known as the Energia Rocket-Space Corporation Named After S. P. Korolev (“RKK Energia”), employed roughly 20,000 people in 1999. It has faced rough times recently, partly because of the poor Russian economy and partly because of stiff competition from its primary competitor, Khrunichev.
Khrunichev's history dates back to March 1951, when Stalin ordered the creation of an organization, OKB-23, to design a new generation of strategic bombers. The design firm was given a giant factory in the Moscow suburb of Fili to produce these new planes. This plant, later named the Khrunichev Plant, had originally been set up in 1916 to manufacture automobiles. OKB-23 designed a series of advanced bombers and cruise missiles through the 1950s. Some of its plans proved to be too ambitious, however, and Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev closed down all of its projects in 1960. He turned OKB-23 into a branch (“Branch No. 1”) of another organization, OKB-52, headed by the famous Vladimir Chelomey, an ambitious scientist who wanted to compete with Korolev to dominate the new Soviet space program. Through the next 20 years, Chelomey assigned Branch No. 1 to design some of his most important products. These included the heavy Proton booster rocket, a number of advanced Soviet ICBMs such as the UR-100 (or SS-11) and UR-100N (or SS-19), and the Transport-Supply Ships for the Almaz military space stations.
By 1981, Chelomey had lost much of his former influence, and the Soviet government detached Branch No. 1 from him and transferred the organization to Chelomey's main competitor, Energia. Through the 1980s, the former Branch No. 1-now named the Salyut Design Bureau-helped Energia design and build the Mir space station and its various modules. Salyut became independent in 1988. Five years later, the new Russian government combined Salyut with the Khrunichev production plant in Fili to form a giant conglomerate with the tongue-twisting name of Khrunichev State Space Scientific-Production Center (GKNPTs Khrunichev).
Since 1993, Khrunichev has been aggressively marketing its assets. Some argue that it has been much more successful than Energia in earning revenues in cooperative projects with Western countries and companies. One of Khrunichev's most notable successes has been International Launch Services (ILS), a joint American-Russian company (the partners are Lockheed Martin, Khrunichev, and Energia) formed in June 1995 that markets the Proton launch vehicle for launching commercial satellites. Other projects include Eurockot, a joint project with the German Daimler Chrysler corporation to market the UR-100N (or SS-19) ICBM as a space launcher.
Khrunichev also provided Zarya (the Russian word for “Dawn”), the first module for the International Space Station, whose design was based on the old Transport-Supply Ships designed in the 1970s. Khrunichev appears poised to take over a significant portion of the Russian space launch market with the introduction of a new family of launch vehicles called the Angara, which uses a modular design for a wide variety of launch services.
Since 2001, Khrunichev has been headed by Alexander Medvedev. He manages about 21,000 employees at the company.

COVID in the U.S. update: Disney’s vaccine mandate, boosters, a startling death toll

The U.S. is approaching its second Thanksgiving in the COVID-19 pandemic, and cases are rising again.
The CDC reported that, as of Thursday, the seven-day daily average of new infections was 88,482, a 16.1% jump over the prior week.
Public health experts say families that are fully vaccinated can enjoy a normal Thanksgiving together, and they’re urging those who have not yet gotten the shot to do so.
Here are some other coronavirus updates:
Disney pauses employee vaccine mandate after new Florida law
Disney has paused its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for workers at Walt Disney World in Orlando, the company confirmed to NPR on Sunday.
It comes after a new Florida law signed Thursday by Gov. Ron DeSantis that bars employers from imposing COVID-19 vaccine mandates and gives employees the ability to select an exemption or opt for periodic testing or the use of personal protective equipment.
“Nobody should lose their job due to heavy-handed COVID mandates and we had a responsibility to protect the livelihoods of the people of Florida,” DeSantis said.
In a statement to NPR, a Disney spokesperson said the company believes its “approach to mandatory vaccines has been the right one as we’ve continued to focus on the safety and well-being of our Cast Members and Guests.”
More than 90% of Disney’s Florida-based employees have verified that they’re fully vaccinated, the company said.
Fauci says it’s unclear how often boosters will be necessary
The head of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention last week endorsed COVID-19 booster shots for all adults who were fully vaccinated.
But as to whether we’ll need boosters of the coronavirus vaccine this frequently for the foreseeable future, experts say the jury is still out.
“We would hope — and this is something that we’re looking at very carefully — that that third shot with the mRNA [vaccines] not only boosts you way up but increases the durability so that you will not necessarily need it every six months or a year,” Dr. Anthony Fauci, chief medical adviser to the president for COVID-19, said on ABC’s This Week Sunday morning.
“We’re hoping it pushes it out more,” he added. “If it doesn’t, and the data show we do need it more often, then we’ll do it.”
Fauci was also asked about the governors of Connecticut and New Mexico saying that people are no longer considered fully vaccinated until they’ve gotten booster shots. He said the federal definition of fully vaccinated remains unchanged: two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson shot.
Have COVID deaths in 2021 surpassed those in 2020?
Data from Johns Hopkins University appears to show that recorded deaths from COVID-19 in 2021 have surpassed those from 2020, even as the vaccine has been widely available for most of the year.
As of Sunday, the Johns Hopkins COVID-19 data dashboard reported that there have been 771,045 total coronavirus deaths in the U.S. throughout the course of the pandemic.
According to the CDC, 385,343 deaths occurred last year, which would mean that the remaining fatalities — 385,702 — happened in 2021.
But official CDC data has not yet caught up with the university’s tally. The agency said 382,861 people have died from COVID-19 in the U.S. so far this year.
Johns Hopkins gets its data directly from state and county health authorities.

There are three categories for the National Officer Safety and Officer Wellness Awards: General Officer Safety, Officer Traffic Safety, and Officer Wellness.
