European deflation ..we are on our way there!
Dodgy Masons inhabit senior Local Government elected positions I suggest, from experience.
Do wonder if latest US elections will make a difference to Obama effect and so.. follower NZ? Any opinions on that?
Experience of trivial commercial IT case that went on so long ..about 3 years .. everyone including judge seemed to have forgotten what it was about - same with Police Conduct Authority..meanwhile case started, and concluded, in the Disputes Tribunal where...
Definitely not "twinkly" eyes, or even face if one looks carefully! Does Mike Smith comment?
Status yes (heaps of, in some quarters) but not necessarily understanding of the problems of the poor and disposessed of which the Waikato towns have plenty..Huntly, Ngaruawahia, Raglan etc
If I may be permitted to make a quick comment here, I rather thought Mahuta was part of the Maori "aristocracy" in Ngaruawahia etc
He is not up with the "play" wrt current economics and associated issues eg see "Expulsions. Brutality and Complexity in the Global Economy" by Saskia Sassen which I bought and read after hearing the argument on Kim Hill's recent programme .. poor Auckland...
Obviously not running a business! Wrt above comments also, the salary/"wage" structure these days works against older folk wanting to change direction, unless they can afford to buy a motel (or luxury "lodge" to spoil the wilderness) and make their own pay...
Same argument with ACC entitlements which greatly favour salaried desk workers. By the time a manual worker's body is "stuffed" ACC calls it "wear and tear" and "age" and "a pre-existing condition" and all those years of paying their own premium means ...
Only had The Establishment" one day, Observer; front cover opinion from Russell Brand proclaims "Our generation's Orwell" ..what do you make of that?
Worth reading: Ch 4 "The Boys in Blue" in Guardian writer Owen Jones 2014 book "The Establishment And how they get away with it"...since Key follows UK trends assiduously..
If David Cunliffe is committed and competent enough to work with a major consulting firm (not easy stuff) he should be given the chance to weather all this aggression and at least have another year. And apart from DavidParker (who is probably too mild, and...
They are called search engines, databases and AI (artificial intelligence). Your confidence about "big data" is misplaced.
Greens recognise "Inc. Assets" as "natural assets" and environmental economists/accountants know (or will have to acknowledge in due course) that "Inc Assets" must be included as properly "valued" natural assets in the National Accounts. None of this is ...
Has been done before, for those who are aged enough or bright enough to recall! I can see Mr Cunliffe has done a course at Harvard...even if some time in the past. Is this a "bloody smart move"? Too little too late one suspects.
Have had a few hair trims on way thro from Welly north and seems to be about $30 for half hour. My computer repair small town business was happy to earn this which I advertised as "tradesman's rates"..$30 for a hair trim seems quite okay to me and half of ...
Think myself so called "Labour" should be happy for Bryan to be bothering to write such articles. I despair of "Labour" these days and am probably going to vote elsewhere out of sheer frustration. Please get rid of all the old geezers in "Labour" like ...
Apart from shredders (?) and fire computer records are retrievable, especially given the low level of technological sophistication of the actors in this evening performance..way up there.
He had a good media lawyer alongside. Should not think it likely. Too many better and higher ranked targets first in line! Nicky is a classy investigative lawyer and should know where the minefields are..
Cleaners and Grumpy Gleaners!
Nicky Hager is a professionnal and proficient non-fiction writer. The book will be well indexed with relevant names and places for quick reference by nervous Natties.
Falling bodies!
It is ridiculous to try and "fix" the software..payroll should be handled by each school, or maybe region ..why they ever hired an Australian company is a mystery ..madness .. plenty of skills for such a routine matter here ..and plenty of business ...
Require all product constituents and "synthetic" chemical formula to be displayed on every packet. The Government Health website is not informative. "Legal Highs" are not complex substances and any competent organic chemist or toxicologist should be able ...
Stop calling it "synthetic cannabis" - it is not -more likely a variant on methamphetamine ..as with ethanol and methanol there doesn't need to be a large difference in chemical makeup to cause a large difference in effect - tho both are poisonous!
First thing to do is realise that this is not "synthetic cannabis..ie THC) but some random probably methamphamine recipe found on the internet. Toxic, probably deadly, and untested and untestable. I do wonder about the naivety of NZ drug consumers. Madness...
Come on! Remember the whole argument with ACC about "pre-existing conditions"? ACC does not look kindly upon worn out tradespersons - regardless of age and stage. Moreover if they are self employed and they can get ACC it will be on net income - so they ...
Then again, Rosie, (not saying this to be provocative) an "external" and independent report may be of better value and quality than one produced by the Minister's department? Thinking of ACC here where department very unlikely to be critical of its own ...
Effect of "Tea Party" similar to rogue NZ "Corporation" ACC in that businesses are now making workers "casual" so they don't have to pay for their health insurance, such as it is ..ACC levies business, but casual workers miss out on compensation for ...
"Tea party" is focused on getting rid of Obamacare and their perception of "socialised" medicine.
