More sections of an ancient aboriginal aquaculture system have been exposed by the fires.

This system of stone chanels and pools were used to harvest eels from Lake Condah, Vic. It is 6,600 years old, making it one of the oldest examples of aquaculture on the planet.

And as such is World Heritage listed.

The region also has evidence of stone buildings suggesting permanent settlement.

What’s the most up to date news on combatting the fires?

Hey Australia! American here.

I’ve been doing what I can to help raise awareness and relief for all of those affected by the fires.

I would love some news to share, good or bad, about what’s current with the fires/rain.

I’m also always open to hearing what your suggestions are on what organizations to point people to that are responsible with helping fund efforts to win.

Please share some news with me I can pass on!

Keep fighting the good fight!

Broken LG tv was marked as Samsung on receipt (warranty issue)

Greetings

I of Course couldn’t find the receipt for the TV (even though I try to keep all of mine) so I called the store to match my bank statement. The issue is that the TV seems to be marked as a Samsung on the receipt somehow.. I was very excited when I got it so I obviously didn’t double check the receipt and assumed they were competent enough. I do remember talking to a staff member and tossing up between the Samsung and LG but ended up going with the LG (maybe that is how it happened?).

My question is, does my bank statement matching the amount on the receipt on their system offer me anything? I feel like I’ve been screwed out of a warranty due to a staff marking my TV as a Samsung instead of LG on the receipt.

No plug but Beyond Bank is a great bank.

There Bank Account has literally no fees, the app is great, the call center has no wait time and the branches have never got a queue, they have a coin counting machine and the card is purple.
