    Why this trending hack might be costing you more than you think

    Veggiepatch: I totally disagree. As a Parking Inspector in previous employment, I was required to be totally conversant with the laws. It is laid down by the government in the Traffic Act of 1961, with the Private Parking Act upgraded in 1986. And they are definitely FINES, not just infringement...

    When healthcare fails our most vulnerable: The incident that exposes gaps in patient care

    I see no mention of the bleeding obvious. All the other patients in the ED must be protected. If this man was invited into the ED, then became abusive or anti-social, then it is a requirement of the hospital staff to protect all the other patients; in doing so, they call the security personnel...

    Your final $75 electricity lifeline arrives in October—just as power prices surge up to 10 per cent

    Yes, I live in this wonderful state of WA, free from those machete-wielding gangs like those in Vic. Darrell, I just looked back on all the Synergy Invoices, and I have found this. Invoice issued 30/12/2024 covering period 30th Oct - 30th Dec 2024 Commonwealth Energy Bill Relief (2024 Offset)...

    Mikev should try an attempt at humour. Alternatively, offer something that people can understand. Sandygwalk's explanation doesn't explain anything; it only deepens the plot.

    Fined $237,000 for hiring someone to remove a century-old tree—fair punishment or too harsh?

    What relevance does this have as "News" to us here in Australia? Who gives a flying ..... about what she has done in "South Wales"? It is NOT in New South Wales.

    80 Mile Beach in Western Australia is actually 220km long. 90 Mile Beach in Victoria is 144km long. So, it has to be 80 Mile Beach between Broome and Port Hedland in WA[/SPOILER] However, if you Google the world's longest beaches,80 Mile Beach WA is not mentioned, but 90 Mile Beach in Victoria is.

    Unexpected find in popular meal leaves diner alarmed: 'We both started panicking'

    What is it with Guzman Y Gomez stores? I saw an article a little while ago depicting a young teenage guy cleaning the filters over the cooking area. The only thing was that he was standing on the benchtop immediately alongside a person cooking someone's meal. That benchtop is also a food...

    ‘They’re everywhere’: An unexpected swarm terrorises Parliament staff and visitors

    What the heck are Seagulls doing so far inland? Canberra is 150km from the nearest sea or ocean. WHY do they fly 150km just to be in Canberra? After all, their name says it all as to where they belong.... SEA Gulls. Maybe they are looking for the rubbish tip called Parliament House.
