I'm trying to upgrade my phone and pay out the remaining cost of my current handset in installments, making my monthly cost go from $100 for new phone to $150.
But I failed the credit check, not for the upgrade itself, but for paying old phone in installments as that's considered 2 phones under my acount, I guess?
Anyway they advised me to contact Illion or Equifax to increase my credit limit.
Is this an actual thing you can do? Or does the live chat agent have no idea what he's talking about?

Although the article is paywalled it seems that Karoon has relinquished their permit in the Great Australian Bight.
The byline however is rather telling:
"We have also listened to our broader stakeholder groups and have initiated actions to relinquish EPP46 in the Great Australian Bight,” Karoon Gas chairman ..."
A map for their survey area can be found here:
As per this article, I am unsure if they completed their planned seismic testing over the past few months:

I am 26 and live with my husband (25). My brother is 28. we didn't talk for a while cos his (ex) wife (and him) didn't want anyone in the picture. My brother is now divorced and asked to stay at my home. We rent the home and have a lot of respect for the landlord and landlord's home. I agreed to help on a trial/temporary basis to make sure he will respect our house and we feel comfortable living with him. We didn't make any paperwork but he has been paying for board and lodgings in cash. I have made meals for him on most nights.
Long story, short, he has been very rude and disrespectful. He has said/done several things things which made us uncomfortable with him in our home but the thing that is worst to me and which makes me want him to leave is that he talks to me in a rude and hostile way which makes me feel disrespected and I feel he doesn't appreciate the help we gave him. I personally would not want to live with someone who doesn't respect me because it makes me feel used.
I just want to know what is the best way to ask him to leave quickly and whether there are any legal matters I should know about in these circumstances. What minimum notice period could I give? Of course I would not accept board/lodgings for any period I have asked him to leave. We have hinted we want him to leave but he refuses. I don't want things to get ugly.

While at times it seemed like a bunch of skits, my vote goes to 2003's You Can't Stop The Murders. It was pretty low budget but starred a number of comedians and I thought it was hilarious. Here are some of the best bits IMO (NFSW language), including probably the funniest stuff Garry Who has ever done:

I liked Let's Get Skase, although they were so unlucky with Christopher Skase himself being inconsiderate enough to pass away at the time of release!
All our known/popular films tend to be crime/dramas (and almost universally dark). Whilst not underrated, I consider Chopper almost a comedy at times (and brilliant). The Castle deserves the credit it gets though, although the other Late Show-written movies were never anywhere near as good. Many of them were just OK but never hit the heights (Bad Eggs, Crackerjack, BoyTown etc). On BoyTown, would love to see the mocumentary that was filmed alongside the film. Hasn't seen the light of day and was supposed to me much funnier than the movie itself.
And damn you Paul Hogan for Crocodile Dundee setting this country back many years in the eyes of Americans.
Pretty much all our rom-coms come off as being a bit fake IMO.
Any other recommended Aussie comedies?

Hey guys I’m just wondering if I can use a fake surename on my resume to avoid discrimination, I’ve been unemployed for awhile and not from the lack of trying. In high school at my work experience a chef told me to toss any resumes with foreign sounding names, that’s stuck with me and I am desperate to find work but don’t know if this is legal thankyou for any replies
