I got charged extra on a bus ticket.. After I bought it.

I'm just titled man, I went to pick up my connecting ticket to Canberra which I bought the other day, and they told me I had to pay an extra 2 dollars because the fees went up on the first. I bought it in the 29th. How can they just retroactively change the price and then force me to pay it?

Will i get attacked if i wear nike tns

it seems a bit excessive, but some kid was attacked in maquarrie (a pretty decent area) over his tns. I know tns have somewhat of a bad rep, but alot of people still wear them. I had a 60 year old religion teacher who wore a pair of grey tns.

Seeking the help of fellow Redditors...

A few months ago I saw an episode of Catalyst On ABC with Dr Graham Phillips. He visited an institute / think tank / university where people considered matters of theoretical physics and were open to new ideas. Also, I think it was located in French speaking Canada, though not 100% sure. For some reason that episode is no longer viewable on iView and I am hoping to find the name / contact details of that institute. Are you able to help me?

Australian kid's TV show, help me with the name?

Back when I was a kid, probably around the turn of the millennium if not a little before, my parents made me watch this Australian show (not sure they realised it was Australian), which I'm sure was called Bush School. I can find no record of such a TV show on the internet, can someone confirm that it existed?

I mainly remember the opening title song if that helps, something like 'Bush Schooooool/Mother nature welcomes yooooouuuu/Something something world that's new/Learn how they survive'

Any assistance would be appreciated.

The Legend of the Dropbear?

Scientists at Flinders University have reconstructed an extinct marsupial lion to get a better understanding of the creature. "It would have measured more than a metre long and half a metre tall while on all fours, weighing about 100 kilos" It seems it looked similar to a Tassie Devil, could tear prey apart with their paws and teeth, it was a carnivore that cut and swallowed without chewing with a similar bite force to an African lion and "the structure of the forearms ... along with its strong collarbones and large thumb claw suggest that it climbed like a koala."
