This doesn't pass the pub test. How can you argue with a straight face this proposal impedes views when 50m away is a 60-storey tower. On the SE corner will be an 11-storey box. All within the Envrions Area.
Over the past decade, this building has deteriorated into one of the city’s major eyesores, with police attending regularly to crack down on criminal activity. Why is it still there?

Tonight Darebin Councillors voted 5-2 (2 abstained from voting) AGAINST this 2 dwelling, 2 storey project in Thornbury because of 'overdevelopment' and incongruent 'neighbourhood character'.Victoria's Housing Statement needs to address the appalling misuse of third-party rights

%pop with higher education vs YES vote. Correlation evident but causation far from clear. Aus Referendum's never pass without bipartisan support.

Did the flowers make it to the vase!?.
@FOXFOOTY Maynard's evidence has concluded. He takes a sip of water. His hair is immaculately gelled.

Should Angus Brayshaw have been on the ground at all? 5 minutes earlier he had suffered a head knock from Taylor Adams (Angus received a free kick for this incident). Why didn't the medical team pick up on this?

Does anyone really think that emissions will follow anything Other than the grey/red trajectories? No. Those in power haven't felt the effects.
The first global stocktake - an accounting of progress to the Paris climate goals - is out. The red is the range of promised actions. The blue and teal are where we need to be. Full report here:

Surely it isn't hard/controversial to include "out on the full" counts in goal kicking scores permanently. Maybe not on the scoreboard, but as an extended stat (including when players are having shots on goal).
Melbourne 7.11 and EIGHT total misses. 7 majors from 26 shots at goal. Collingwood 9.6 and a single miss. Astounding inaccuracy from the Demons. Shot themselves in the foot @FOXFOOTY.

In the age of protecting against head injuries, how long before knees to the head in marking contests will be outlawed? Will have huge implications and fierce debate.
"To be honest, I was just waiting for a knee in the head.". Isaac Quaynor takes us through his incredibly courageous mark in that tense final term. #AFLPiesDees

Who is in charge of the replays on the MCG big screens? They replayed this incident once, a blink-and-you-miss-it 2 seconds. The whole crowd was on edge, not least because no one had any idea what happened. At least give us the ability to understand what's going on!.
Patrick Dangerfield: "In my view, there is nothing in this.".Matthew Richardson: "What else can he do?". Angus Brayshaw has been stretchered off the ground after a big collision with Brayden Maynard. #AFLPiesDees

Despite adopting the goal of creating medium-density neighbourhoods to end urban sprawl, our cities have struggled to achieve it. Confused debates about ‘good density’ are part of the problem.

Just published in the @ConversationEDU with Elek Pafka and Ben Thorp. We desperately need better understandings of the different conceptions and metrics of densities and how they relate to people’s everyday experiences. Read on to find out our suggestions
