Well they’re trying and investing a lot. Honda is having a go too.I suspect what Reinart also meant was the combustion engine will be with us for a long time. Just look how efficient the i8 hybrid is.
We will see.

“They’re mostly hillbillies who live way out in the sticks, clapped out used car salesmen, or losers with no money, and who for any of those reasons, can’t get the psychiatric care they need. All obsessives.”

Shit, sounds like these people need government help….wonder if they vote Labour/Greens/Imp ?

All_on_Red, discussions about whether this or that technology is the best way to go in addressing climate change miss the important insight, borne out by years and years of observation, that Governments are consistently useless at picking technology winners. It’s markets that develop and deploy technological advances, not Governments.

What will incentivize businesses to develop and market low-carbon solutions, and consumers to buy them? Altering the profitability/cost comparison between low-carbon and carbon-intensive, that’s what. The point of a carbon tax, and even more so the point of emissions trading, is to improve the relative attractiveness (profitability, consumer value for money) of low-carbon goods and services compared to carbon-intensive ones.

We should also penalize those who chose to use large inefficient cars.
Including my v6 camry. 😆
At present our perverse road user tax regime encourages the use of larger diesel suv’s and takes away the monetary gains available for using small efficient diesels cars.
Personally I believe small plug in hybrids with compression ignition will be the cars of the future for at lest as long as I will be driving.
Ceramic technology may stop the heat problems of metal engines making gains in efficient combustion along with lighter composite structures … 100mpg …2.3l 100 km for an every day car is not far off now. this along with googles drivers-less technology promise personal transport will be around for a while yet.

This is an interesting development for the infernal combustion engines future direction. http://www.ceramicrotaryengines.com/
I wouldn’t bank on it though to fringe as yet.

The spin job the Godsodden attempted this morning would have qualified them for an Oscar but it was economical with fact & truth. Just to bring what happened at Catholic run baby factories in Ireland back into focus.

….”In 2001, the Washington Post reported:

Milotte, a senior reporter for the Irish television network
RTE, says life was particularly hard for the mothers in
these convents, which were largely self-sustaining due
to the women’s free labor but also received public
funding. It was quite a profitable business for the nuns.
They exploited the women for labor and then sold their
children for large amounts of money into adoption. The
priests and nuns received money from the adoptive
parents, who paid “confinement and medical costs”
associated with their child’s birth.

Where did the money go?” he wonders. “It sustained
the people who ran the institutions in a manner they
wouldn’t have otherwise enjoyed.” “…..

Ref: http://www.vaticancrimes.us/2013/05/nuns-caught-trafficking-thousands-of.html

Not a bad little earner was it?

1) Subsidy from Councils or Government to provide the “care & facilities”.

2) Charge the mother a hundred quid for “services rendered” if she didn’t leave the baby for adoption. If she’s a bit skint then that’s okay….she can work it off doing unpaid work in a laundry for a couple of years.

3) Charge the laundry services at the going commercial rate.

4) If the anklebiter survives the abuse sell it to adoptive parents, often in the USA, for a good little backhander plus full expenses.

What a racket…..even the Black Power couldn’t put a money spinner like that together.

Its pretty much the same scam that the christian brothers pulled with stolen children in oz nasska.
Told the parents they had died in care then shipped the kids to oz .
They were paid to steal them, ship them and then support them .
Except the good brothers also used the unfortunate kids as sexual objects along with the use as free slave labor and human punching bags.

Where’s our hardworking and conscientious public servant?

He found time (no doubt in a very busy work schedule) to comment on the “Second largest religions by US states” and “Joyce rated more valuable than Cunliffe” threads earlier. But he hasn’t commented on any thread since 4:24 pm.

When should we send out a search party? 🙂

“…..Where’s our hardworking and conscientious public servant?…”

You mean the one who gets to keep his job only because he is gay? – everyone else would be fired.

He not only has a state funded job for life but a publicy funded sexual lifestyle too. Unlike smokers and drinkers he doesn’t contribute one brass razoo to the cost of his irresponsable ways. The public health system treats his kind over and over and over again. Nothing deters them from their irresponsable ways. Unlike smokers and drinkers.

Sexual healthcare should be like dentistry – pay as you go.

Milky is the gay whore of the welfare system! 😎

When I was a landlord, five one bedroom flats, I didn’t bother with tenancy agreements or pay bonds to that tenancy outfit, I just told the tenants if they missed a rent payment, wreaked anything or made too much noise they’d find their chattels out on berm.
No fucking about. Only had to do it once when one tenant went walkabout and the rent payments stopped. Living on site helped keep things under control.

At least its actually a 4×4 not a overbuilt remuera* kiddy delivery wagon.
And you can buy 70’s new still. it now comes with the 4.5 v8 so I am sure the keys could be pried if the incentive trade in deal on a new 70lx was right.
Going from the old 122kw and 380nm to 151kw and 480nm would make me think hard

*translates as burnt arse. 😆

A mates got one of the V8s Griff….goes well & would be about the best tow vehicle I’ve driven. The TD4200 only came out for 2005/6 & was the original 4.2 block with a redesigned head to take the turbo. Mine’s only done about 180,000 so I reckon she’ll see me out.

Amazingly they’re still fetching over $30K in good nick.

Should get at lest 400,000kms with no props at all provided its not boiled up and the oil gets changed once in a while.
I have seen a few 4.2td’s that haven’t made that far due to lack of maintenance or a lose nut behind the wheel.

Free market scum.

Staff reports http://www.stuff.co.nz/business/10136869/Stockbroker-admits-to-duping-associates

“Self-employed Auckland stockbroker Gregory Alan Arnott has admitted duping his own associates through a stock options trading fraud.

The 51 year old was the director of Derivatek New Zealand, and traded options on the Australian stock exchange on behalf of local clients.

He pleaded guilty in the Auckland District Court today to 10 criminal charges laid by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO), which alleged he misused his clients’ money.

Arnott admitted that between April 2008 and May 2012 he used investors’ cash to repay other clients, and fund part of an advance fee in an attempt to get a US$20 million (NZ$23.5m) loan.

He also issued false statements to his investors in order to cover up the fraud, the SFO said.

SFO director Julie Read said Arnott had earned the trust of a group of investors through his personal association with them.”

In my opinion if there is an Epsom by-election – National will lose the 2014 election. Why? Because an Epsom by-election will keep the focus on corruption – which is the last thing PM John Key wants. A by-election will not happen if 75% of MPs vote against it. That’s 91 MPs. If Labour want to defeat John Keys National-led Govt they will NOT vote against an Epsom by-election. It won’t be a waste of money – it will be an investment in the fight against corruption . Penny Bright

Yeah because Labour’s never fiddled the books in electoral law right? Still only fighting against the blue team? Why am I not surprised.

Have you considered standing for Epsom Penny?

The good burghers of that well-heeled electorate are probably looking for a steady sort of chap like you too splurge their largesse on in an endeavour to create stable government after the way they’ve been so shabbily treated by both ACT and the NAT’s? 🙂

Pssst Penny… I’ll let you into a secret. If you claim to be against corruption as a matter of principle, it’s not a good look if you only look at one particular bloc in parliament. Technically, that’s corruption. 🙂

I can see a situation where if the rich folks of Epsom offered to settle your rates bill and set you up with a stipend to be their watchdog in lieu of Banksie being in a position to carry out those duties Penny you should seriously be considering the offer?

Principles are fine but one must consider putting bread on the table as well of course! 🙂

Would refusing to pay your rates be corrupt? would the fact that someone has done so publicly for years and not suffered the consequences be corrupt?
Defiantly in my book there is some sort of fear on the part of the authorities in prosecuting this particular freeloader.

I am sure If a nonentity like for instance Griff was to refuse to pay his allotted stipend for the use of the public facility’s he occupies in Auckland he would find a official backlash against his use of the allotted space happening quick smart.
In fact the arc chased Griff over one bounced payment with vigor within weeks of said payment being bounced.
Just because I was fucking the woman responsible for the payments at that time did not curry me any favors with the powers that be. In fact it was even more urgent in that not only did the council hound me for the monies on top of that I was informed that for my sex life to be continued unsanctioned as it were I must pay the bounced stipend pronto.

So my question for you mz Bright is what do you hold over the council that they have ignored your refusal to pay?… and can I have some?

Look what I found

http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/95913770

it’s an Ocker cheese roll!!!

Those poor southern hillbillies will be beside themselves now that it seems that their only contribution to world gastronomy was stolen from the ockers!!

But lets be realistic here,hillbillies, it wasn’t really up to much in the first place, was it? In the real world a cheese roll usually consists of a bread roll, filled with cheese, maybe some sliced tomato and lettuce, and a tasty smearing of mustard. I prefer Greek style Mediterranean Mustard with Oregano and Thyme.

But these atrocious “cheese rolls” you hillbillies seem to think are so wonderful. Someone has to be taking the p!ss, surely? Three dollars for a rolled up bit of stale bread with some moldy cheese inside. No thanks!
