Meet the gurus of India.
Sai Baba can materialise anything he wants.
Godmen believe to have superhuman powers.
Here is a man who caters to the elite, who gives them gold necklaces.
To the poor, he gives holy ashes.
But now, they face a new force.
We can't go on being backward and irrational and steeped in superstition.
That exposes them as frauds.
It is no magic at all.
They are the GuruBusters, 8.30 Tuesday.
Tomorrow night at 7.30, nursing homes of the future.
The best money can buy, but only for those who can afford it.
We could well develop a system wherein well-heeled, high-income areas,
nursing homes will be at a very high standard.
While in low-income areas, nursing homes will deteriorate.
The two tiers of aged care. That's tomorrow night, 7.30.
Good evening. John Lombard with an ABC Newsbreak.
Three Australians have been sentenced to 50 years' jail each in Thailand for smuggling heroin.
Lyle Doniger, Jane Mackenzie and Deborah Spinner, all from Sydney,
had death sentences commuted because they confessed.
They were shocked at the severity of the sentence, saying they'd been set up
in a joint Australian Thai police sting as an example to others.
But a much happier ending today for 13 children and one adult
who'd been missing in a remote part of Western Australia for two days.
Police searches found six of the missing children in an area south of Northman.
They were then able to guide rescuers to the rest of the group.
And they're all safe and well.
And the weather, it'll be fine and mild tomorrow.
And I'll be back with more news in an hour after Media Watch.
Innovation and excellence with lots of options in great music.

Pure nicotine.
Just three drops can kill an adult.
It helps to control body weight.
It helps us focus our attention.
It helps us in several ways that make this a very desirable drug.
A clean cigarette that's kind to your throat.
A hot shot of it straight to the brain.
The brain goes, wow, that's fantastic.
Nicotine. The premiere of a special series on drugs.
What's your poison?
8 o'clock Thursday.
