“Altercation”?
“Run-in”?
Here I’ll fix it for you: “A white Texas trooper who deliberately elbowed two black players, including South Carolina’s Nyck Harbor, failed to provoke them into retaliating so he didn’t get what he wanted but it was caught on camera so had to be punished so he got sent home”

I get your point but if the govt is going on about these amazing new trains and promoting public transport and making it cheaper, they could, like, get the platforms to fit the trains. An investment in the future etc etc

As per initial article when it happened:
“He [the conductor] said something over the thing about carriage three, and I was in carriage two, but I went to the door and there was no platform," Mr Kelly said.

V/Line passenger falls from train and breaks leg due to short platform
Daniel Kelly broke his leg after he stepped off a V/Line train only to discover the carriage had outrun the platform at his local station.

People may not read signs or hear announcements. They could lock the doors on the carriages where there’s no platform to step off onto. But then again, with “many platforms built decades ago and designed for Victoria's trains at the time,” they could look at making platforms longer.

They are spectacular when they flower! (I’m glad I know now why they’re called Bird of Paradise - I had it totally wrong 😂)

My Mum had an absolute ripper - it was a huge plant - lifted the concrete path and was always a risk to eyes if not paying attention,despite ruthless annual cutting.
But the most spectacular example I have ever seen.

The pardons are primarily symbolic: No one on the list has been charged with federal crimes, and Trump can't pardon those facing state charges in GA, AZ, NV and WI.

But it's another effort by Trump to recast the history of his bid to seize a second term in 2020. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
