The circus has left town. Three days, 21 world leaders, one city. And for the effort Sydney will be remembered as a police state, where a man leaving to enjoy lunch with his 11 year old son was arrested for jaywalking. He'll have his day in court, though - as he did have his day in jail (sorry - only 22 hours of imprisonment without access to a lawyer).
Home-town paper The Sydney Morning Herald says we’ve been living under martial law.
That same publication has a great photo on the cover today. Amazing how one image conveys so much. 
After APEC Prime Miniter John Howard expected to climb in the polls. Today’s results show he’s dropped even further. It’s bad news - and he knows it.
APEC paid a dividend much like an Australian bank when you've overdrawn your account - charges, fee, debits galore!
