Inandout, I too have heard about the Honda CTV transmission that can be awfully costly to repair if something goes wrong. A car dealer advised me to sat clear when thinking about getting the awfully tempting Jazz or Fit fro my wife..

I took it and settled for a peace of mind Toyota Varis !

Hi Friend/Advisor Maggy

You give good advice to watchpuppies! Merry Christmas.

I was naughty and did a do-do on Griffs back porch because he is so mean to you. I hope he steps in it, in bare feet

“December 24th, 2015 at 10:05 am
My predictions for 2016
1) Penny will cave in at the last minute and pay her rates, claiming a victory for Transparency. …”

WRONG Fentex.

Although there has been some movement regarding the publishing for public scrutiny, some ‘devilish detail’ on Auckland Council and CCO spending on ‘awarded contracts’ to private consultants and contractors – we are STILL ‘not there yet’

Since the publicity arising from the attempt by Auckland Council to force the rating sale of my freehold home (over my disputing and refusal to pay rates because of their failure to state exactly where public rates monies were being SPENT) – there has been some movement by both Auckland Council and Watercare Services, regarding transparency in spending on ‘awarded contracts’.

Don’t believe a word I say – try googling for yourself, and see what you can find ?

You cannot, in my considered opinion, have genuine ‘transparency’ or ‘accountability’ in local (or central) government, when it comes to spending ratepayers (and taxpayers) public monies. without creating and maintaining full and accurate public records which are available for public scrutiny

When I am elected Mayor of Auckland, Auckland Council and CCOs WILL be held accountable to the ‘Rule of Law’ regarding citizens and ratepayers’ lawful rights to ‘open, transparent and democratically accountable’ local government.

And, unlike all the other (confirmed) 2016 Auckland Mayoral candidate, I’ve actually taken, in my view, effective action which has not been ignored.

(Check my proven track record 🙂

Kind regards,

Penny Bright

2016 Auckland Mayoral candidate.

I sure hope that after Penny forces the Auckland Council to meet her demands for transparency she will then be able to pay all her overdue rates. It would be shame for her to win such a long battle and then lose her home as a result, wouldn’t it?

Somebody commented re the Christchurch Cathedral rebuild appears to be driven by Catholics in Christchurch – Anderton, Brownlee and Burton.
Could it be that if they can get Taxpayers money (Brownlee) for the Cathedral it will create a precedent for taxpayers money the rebuild of the Catholic Basilica.
Is it not time to say to Christchurch “enough” – many many billions of over the top taxpayer funds, in some extraneous way or not under some name, have been given to the city.
$225 million for an Art Gallery – bully under budget and under timescale.
Let the Anglicans do what they want with the Cathedral – this entirely political, hit off originally by Anderton.
Let the Ratepayers pay if it is what the Council want.
It is the Cathedral owners to decide.

FFS – it’s Christmas – can’t the NZ Herald give their Key Derangement Syndrome a rest?

Max Key pines away in Hawaii.

He might be back in the island paradise of Hawaii, but Max Key’s Christmas holiday is missing one vital ingredient: girlfriend Amelia Finlayson.

The Prime Minister’s son posted a photo of the couple to Instagram this week, saying he had just landed in Hawaii and was “already missing” his “partner in crime”.

Finlayson gushed that she missed him too – although she is set to join the Key family at their holiday home shortly after Christmas.

Yawn. Can’t they find some real news to report on?

The ever growing Global warming dilemma – are they being truthful?

Government watchdog Judicial Watch has filed suit against the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), seeking documents relating to their methodology and internal communications with regard to climate change.

The group filed a FOIA request for the documents that was turned down. A congressional committee also demanded the documents that were just recently handed over to the committee after the agency initially refused to cooperate.

At issue is the belief that the NOAA and NASA routinely fiddle with air and ocean temperature data to reflect a bigger problem with global warming than is actually present. Methodology is important, but the key will be found in the internal communications at the agency. If there was any funny business with the data, it will be there.

Judicial Watch is likely to get at least some of the documents without a judge’s ruling. But it’s hard to justify withholding documents that shed light on how the agency interprets data, considering that this sort of information is important for other scientists to review and comment on. Across the government, it is becoming increasingly difficult to pry basic information about how the administration gathers, analyzes, and interprets data that justify its extreme position on climate change.

You’d think they had something to hide.

American political commentator heavyweight, Paul Craig Roberts on Donald Trump:

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-12-23/paul-craig-roberts-evaluates-donald-trump

Trump is popular not so much for his stance on issues as for the fact that he is not another Washington politican, and he is respected for not backing down and apologizing when he makes strong statements for which he is criticized.What people see in Trump is strength and leadership. This is what is unusual about a political candidate, and it is this strength to 5 voters are responding. For that reason, the corrupt American political establishment has issued a “get Trump” command to its presstitute media

He has taken a serious hit. It could be terminal:
http://www.politico.com/story/2015/12/ben-carson-campaign-shakeup-217110

“Everything. Everything is on the table,” the Republican presidential candidate explained Wednesday in an interview with The Associated Press after hinting that “personnel changes” could come. “Every single thing is on the table. I’m looking carefully.”

Then, in a statement issued in his name shortly after the AP article was published, Carson said he has “100 percent confidence in my campaign team.”

You aren’t seriously suggesting that the Anglican Church would just walk away from the site, abandon it or sell it for a retail outlet, are you?

Maybe the Church should revert the land to it’s original intended use and sell it to a private boys’ school.

So basically if Christchurch Cathedral is to be re-built, the required funds must be raised in that manner, the Bishop cannot be expected to divert cashflows and funds needed for other purposes.

A Heritage lady told me the other day the ChCh Cathedral was built in stages, mainly by parishioners – some of it very badly indeed.

Maybe The Church should use the same method to build it’s replacement (a working bee every Saturday for the next decade or two?).

Yes but as ChCh does not own nor control the Cathedral (either of them) I fail to understand your point.

How will the taxpayer supporting yet another charity affect, in any way, the generous taxpayer contribution (very gratefully received by the way) to Christchurch?

Serco-run Wandoo prison promises inmates Christmas treats as staff wait for pay rise

CHRISTMAS behind bars for inmates at a young offenders prison in southern Perth will include a long table lunch and New Year’s Eve high tea. Prisoners at the Serco-run Wandoo Reintegration Facility, for men aged 18-28, will also get a $5 Christmas “bonus” towards their cash account. Ham on the bone, turkey with cranberry jelly and sirloin steaks are on the prison menu for Christmas and New Year. Offenders will have all this and more thrown at them over the coming days according to Serco’s “Christmas Program 2015”.
…
Wandoo is a minimum security jail in Murdoch. This week, it had about 70 inmates.
…
The WA Prison Officers Union, who are in the midst of pay negotiations for Wandoo staff, said its members were not objecting to inmates “getting a decent Christmas”. “What they object to is that Serco won’t come to the party with a decent pay offer when they can afford all of these luxuries for prisoners,” union secretary John Welch said. “If Serco can afford to provide sirloin steaks and high teas for prisoners, while at the same time telling staff it can’t afford to give them a proper pay rise, then something is drastically wrong.”

It’s like saying, “don’t you know which bubble you live in?”. That’s Manolo’s bubble, seems perfectly normal to him. Same could apply to an impressionable Muslim extremist.

The difference is, Manolo has something to lose, ie; his middle class lifestyle. Many Muslim extremists, on the other hand have nothing to lose.

Cameron hails Britain’s Christian values in a speech and has been attacked for doing so.

‘The Prime Minister said these values have been key to making the country a “successful home to people of all faiths and none”.

How dare he mention Christianity at this time of the year.

http://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/629221/David-Cameron-Christianity-refugee-crisis-Christmas-message

Meanwhile-

‘Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has been accused of “cancelling Christmas” by refusing to issue a festive message today’.

One has to wonder has Donald Trump somehow revealed the way for political leaders (Cameron) to show balls?

Longtime Kiwiblog readers will remember Phillip John AKA Roger Nome:

What am I doing this Sunday morning? oh I don’t know, freaking out about the fact that we are on the cusp of global recession yet no one in New Zealand’s blogsphere seems to have a clue about it.

David, I see that you’re still yet to make one single post on the most important and urgent economic issue that this country, and indeed the world, currently faces. That is peak oil.

Well the ABC – that bastion of socialist journalism – has published an interesting article about peak oil:

With the world awash with too much crude oil at the moment, the fear of an economic catastrophe when fossil fuels start running out is quietly fading in the background. The prediction is known as peak oil — what happens when crude oil extraction hits its maximum and supplies begin a steady and permanent decline creating a global shock.

But now the peak oil argument is fast losing currency as global supplies of oil vastly outstrip demand, pushing the US benchmark price toward 30 US dollars a barrel.

Shane Oliver, chief economist at AMP Capital Investors, said the supply and demand table has well and truly turned on the once vocal peak oil advocates. “They’ve been talking about a peak in the global production of oil for the last two decades now and it still hasn’t happened, and I think the reality is that they are going to remain wrong going forward,” Dr Oliver told the ABC’s AM program. “Therefore the catastrophe that was predicted by the peak oil advocates, where oil production would peak and there would be huge economic impact globally, that just won’t happen.”

The peak oil argument has confronted a new global reality – or a new normal – driven by major geopolitical and economic factors rocking both the developed and developing world:
• US shale producers are pumping like never before and adding to stockpiles.
• With US sanctions lifted, oil-rich Iran is about to rejoin the global market.
• The OPEC oil cartel is refusing to tighten supplies to keep prices high betting that US producers will produce themselves out of business.

An interesting article – worth a read.

I was a very happy man. My wonderful girlfriend and I had been dating for over a year, and so we decided to get married. There was only one little thing bothering me… It was her beautiful younger sister. My prospective sister-in-law was twenty-two, wore very tight mini skirts, and generally was bra-less. She would regularly bend down when she was near me, and I always got more than a nice view. It had to be deliberate because she never did it when she was near anyone else. One day her ‘little’ sister called and asked me to come over to check the wedding invitations. She was alone when I arrived, and she whispered to me that she had feelings and desires for me that she couldn’t overcome. She told me that she wanted me just once before I got married and committed my life to her sister. Well, I was in total shock, and couldn’t say a word. She said, ‘I’m going upstairs to my bedroom, and if you want one last wild fling, just come up and get me.’ I was stunned and frozen in shock as I watched her go up the stairs. I stood there for a moment, then turned and made a beeline straight to the front door. I opened the door, and headed straight towards my car. Lord… And behold, my entire future family was standing outside, all clapping! With tears in his eyes, my father-in-law hugged me and said, ‘We are very happy that you have passed our little test. We couldn’t ask for a better man for our daughter. Welcome to the family.’

And the moral of this story is: Always keep your condoms in your car.

Have you heard of peer review mate ?
Peer reviewed papers in scientific journals gives the methods .
Here are Nasa’s including the programs used
http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/
NOAA including raw and adjusted plus programs used and method can be found here.
ftp://ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/ghcn/v3/
Want the raw data and the adjusted data from an independent source?
Here is all of the data collected in the world about twenty thousand more stations more than NOAA uses. feel free to play with to your harts content
http://berkeleyearth.org/data/

So what do they actually want of I can find multiple sources online in a few minutes?

But it’s hard to justify withholding documents that shed light on how the agency interprets data, considering that this sort of information is important for other scientists to review and comment on.

I see so the person who wrote the bullshit at American thinking can not even spend five minutes to find the above available on line for anyone to look at
Must be a missive fuckwit …eh as is anyone who follows such site

They are doing a witch hunt looking for personal emails to quote out of context.

Griff, NASA has altered its data to show warming that isn’t there.

Professor Dr. Friedrich Karl Ewert is a retired geologist and data computation expert. He has painstakingly examined and tabulated all NASA GISS’s temperature data series, taken from 1153 stations and going back to 1881. His conclusion: that if you look at the raw data, as opposed to NASA’s revisions, you’ll find that since 1940 the planet has been cooling, not warming.

According to Günter Ederer, the German journalist who has reported on Ewert’s findings:

From the publicly available data, Ewert made an unbelievable discovery: Between the years 2010 and 2012 the data measured since 1881 were altered so that they showed a significant warming, especially after 1950. […] A comparison of the data from 2010 with the data of 2012 shows that NASA-GISS had altered its own datasets so that especially after WWII a clear warming appears – although it never existed.

Apart from Australia, the planet has in fact been on a cooling trend:

Using the NASA data from 2010 the surface temperature globally from 1940 until today has fallen by 1.110°C, and since 2000 it has fallen 0.4223°C […]. The cooling has hit every continent except for Australia, which warmed by 0.6339°C since 2000. The figures for Europe: From 1940 to 2010, using the data from 2010, there was a cooling of 0.5465°C and a cooling of 0.3739°C since 2000.

Fletch Nasa has altered the raw data to make it more accurate.
Accounting for changes in measurement methods and site movements.
The global temperatures from the adjusted data shows less warming than the raw data .
This is due to taking into account the use of canvas buckets to measure sea water before the war being cooler than measurement at the engine intake.

They have adjusted global warming down not up.

You are talking absolute ignorant fuckwitterys as usual.

Remember: Believing Nonsense Has Consequence
Nowhere is Idiot America more at work than in the Climate Change ‘debate”,

“If I may be so bold, I would like to reiterate something I wrote in a book that—judging by the current presidential campaign—has had little or no impact on American politics.
THE THREE GREAT PREMISES OF IDIOT AMERICA:
1) Any theory is valid if it sells books, soaks up ratings, or otherwise moves units.
2. Anything can be true if someone says it loudly enough.
3. Fact is that which enough people believe. Truth is measured by how fervently they believe it.

I would like to brag that I saw coming Donald Trump’s unique ability to activate—nay, to embody —all three of the Great Premises at once, but I can’t really do that. However, in no field of argument, and on no other issues, are the Three Great Premises engaged to more destructive effect than on the issue of the climate crisis that continues to confront us no matter how hard we wish it away.

Just today, for example, the folks at Breitbart’s Mausoleum For The Chronically Unemployable introduce us to one Dr. Friedrich Karl Ewert, whom the folks in the mausoleum tout as the most recent Actual Scientist to debunk the worldwide scientific consensus regarding climate change. (It likely will not surprise you to learn that Ewert’s been slinging this stuff for quite a while now.) Ewert is very big on the scientists-in-conspiracy approach to the problem and, naturally, he found himself a willing megaphone in Breitbart to peddle his wares in the United States. Of course, back here on planet Earth, we learn this week that things are not improving at all…..”

ISIS must be gloating that they have managed to put a damper on the Paris Christmas celebrations.

Lovely Aussie:
http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/news-life/qasem-gardi-found-guilty-of-trying-to-kill-former-girlfriend-by-strangling-her-with-hijab/news-story/d581c65c2f82ba8c8dc58a438bd1f61a?utm_source=outbrain&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=lifestyle

A spurned boyfriend has been convicted of trying to kill his former partner by strangling her with a hijab.

Supreme Court Justice David Lovell on Monday found Qasem Gardi, 25, guilty of the attempted murder of his then-girlfriend at Para Vista in October last year. In his written verdict, Justice Lovell said he had found, beyond reasonable doubt, that Gardi had intended to kill her when he first pulled her scarf or hijab.

The government should do the same with the hopeless Dame Devoy:

Argentina’s new government fired the country’s chief media regulator on Wednesday, saying the head of the AFSCA television and radio watchdog commission was openly acting against the country’s new center-right President Mauricio Macri.

The granny from hell:
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/12/24/us/politics/hillary-clinton-is-not-my-abuela-critics-say.html

Hillary Clinton’s campaign for president has been savvy about talking to young voters in the parlance of the social web, using emojis, sleek graphics and other formats. But the list “7 things Hillary Clinton has in common with your abuela” seemed to backfire this week.

Manolo: your preference for unaccountable government power, i.e. totalitarianism, and your contempt for free speech and free media, is disturbing.
