IS there an automobile that runs on water?
"However I have also seen doctors argue that with RCTs treatment if any kind is not valuable, and that’s arguable not true." Sorry, but I don't understand that sentence. Maybe too late at night for me :-) A method for removing bias in studying the ...
"RCTs are designed for specific purposes not to be the be all and end all of knowledge about human health"- If you looked into this a bit more critically, I think you'd find that nowhere do medical researchers ever claim that RCTs are the 'be all and end ...
How do you define "experts"? " when the ‘ experts’ held the view the world was flat ,… many people who had the audacity to question that were put to death" - It was religious leaders who killed those who questioned the accepted dogma at the time.
"an internal combustion engine that uses water" "quantum physics now lining up more in agreement to the ancient sages" "yet whole lucrative careers have been built around the evolution theory." - all examples of why people should be able to argue and back ...
Kinda pointless offer really because as we know, unlike Labour where the entire party membership get to vote, only Nat MPs have any say in the leadership vote. The contenders only really need concern themselves with their fellow causcus members. That fits ...
Metiria fits the bill there BM.
I agree with you Garibaldi!
Earthquakes are instant and you can't ignore them. Climate change is incremental and most people ignore it. Earthquakes are caused by plate movements. It's not our fault. Climate change is being caused by greenhouse gas emissions. It is our fault.
Yes Lara! I'm also sick of men saying the problem is overpopulation and then only talking about it as if it is a women only issue. Vasectomy is cheap, quick, permanent and has very little health risk. But the chances of an effective global population ...
Are the proposed Southland blocks likely to be fracked? Thought they were the- lets f*ck the climate with conventional (albeit very deep) off shore oil and gas drilling- variety. Guess the fossil fuel cheerleader Roy thought he'd try and impress the locals...

I went on it in 1969. It might not have been more efficient and economic then, but that was before the Chch-Picton road rail link was munted by these quakes.
With the Chch- Picton line out of action and trucks having to go via the Lewis pass, until who knows when, South Island freight is going to be slower than it was. Perhaps the current road & rail corridor from Chch- Picton will be repaired, but it will ...
The road and rail freight gets shipped across Cook strait. I find myself in the wierd position of agreeing with someone called Tory. A new ferry service from Christchurch to Wellington would make sense with sea level rise too.
What makes you think that Andrew Little didn't say thank you to John Key? And "my Labour leader"? huh? why the possessive there Bill? Are you a paid up Labour member?
Excellent post MS, thank you for sharing the positive comments that your friend wrote. Tiny little niggle with the graphic (sorry if this is over-sensitive) I know this "keep calm" thing is a popular meme, but maybe some clever person could re do it and ...
You are taking the piss aren't you Galeandra? As if Trotter discussed feminism with those women back then.
NZ First- well you could have a look at this http://thedailyblog.co.nz/2016/09/03/embedded-at-the-new-zealand-first-convention-part-1-the-board-is-set-the-pieces-are-moving/ where Curwen Ares Rolinson is congratulating their party on "The lowering of age ...
There is a lot in that Trotter piece that feels SO wrong. I'm middle class, I guess, so I don't feel I can speak for working class women but I found it quite offensive that Trotter said.... "Always assuming that those working-class women wanted their ...
Where is the evidence that his gender is the reason he has not been selected?
It's fun thinking it through and trying different approaches. Any gardening is intervention, otherwise it's hunter gatherer stuff. Humans would have caused less damage to the world if we had stuck to that, but bit late to revert to it with billions of us ...
We are lucky to have 10 ha and have about half in forest that we have planted over 26 years. The forest includes timber trees, firewood trees, and many varieties of fruits and nuts. I invisage climbing beans, asparagus, tree onion and other greens as ...
Paradise in your garden- Smart Permaculture Design by Jenny Allen is good.
A metal detector might come in handy for missing tools.
Crickey Robert, sowing dock! I like to have a few plants around to put on nettle stings, but I don't encourage it. Karen I dig out as much of the dock roots as I can. As my vege bed soil has improved I can pull out the plants that self seed there. In the ...
There's a lot less smoking and driving pissed than there used to be. Throwing resources at those problems does seem to be doing something.
I'm not offended, but I do object to the idea that following a fashionable trend thus somehow devalues what a woman has to say. I also have daughters (18 & 20) and don't expect them to have to wear dungarees and avoid mascara to be taken seriously. I ...
Well said Lara! The blame for sexist behaviour/ language lies firmly with the person doing/saying it. Expecting those at whom it is directed to stop it from happening by "setting limits" or whatever, is ridiculous and just plain ignorant.
"Some highly emotive and gendered responses" Yeah when women speak out some man usually comes along and calls us emotional. We're used to that one.
Regarding the women groped by Trump, in real life, was the problem there that they didn't " set their own limits"? Are you male or female Manuka AOL? Because I'm reading you as an apologist for sexist behaviour by men.
