    Competitive eater caught red-handed at pub pantry—but locals were left eating their words

    To be fair, the story does offer a plausible justification for the phenomenon, including positive side-flows concerning men's mental health. That said, my eyebrows did reach for the sky when I began reading and I have a niggling question about whether a different strategy could achieve the same...

    You laughed, cried, saw him break barriers—this award-winning actor (73) leaves a hole in our hearts

    Centrelink ordered to pay three million Australians after decades-long fight

    Income apportionment and "annualising" felt like a scam from the beginning. It happened to my then-wife after she began working following her studies.
