Hard News: Dirty Politics, in reply to nzlemming,
It's a hard rein...
Gentlemen, start your lawyers
I can see them now...
their flanks heaving,
tight briefs concealed
'neath ebon gowns
tie-wigs taut and trimsteamy interjections
fog and hang
in electric airjockeying up to the bar
bridled mouthpieces ready...and they're off!*
*rhymes with trough

out of seasonal disorder?
Where to put these?
Some wonderful snaps from that 'wickered butane beltane' in the other hemisphere......speaking of the equatorial divide, I thought Dr Haywood was diplomatic, kind even, on Kim Hill's saturday salon today, when she had her epiphany about the sun and the water cycle... that's why National Radio is a National Treasure, we never stop learning, even the smart ones, isn't it great!

it's a happening thing!
The Colliers International 28 page supplement, loftily heralded by fallen archangel and part-time spruiker, John Key during the first Leaders Debate, has arrived in The Press today.I'd say Warwick Isaacs or Peter Townsend gave Key a heads up on this, by the look of it, and what a hodgepodge of a yawn it is - though Townsend has presciently taken Russell's Meth Election meme to heart, headlining that the 'Central City (is) Crystallising'.
Their revelatory map of projects in Chchch only has the stadium on the Lichfield/Madras/Cashel block, when its footprint runs from Hereford to Tuam, there's a 'Catherdral Square' and a 'Milennium Hotel' - and can someone tell their designers that reversing sub-10pt type out of screened lime green backgrounds (or red or light blue) does nothing to help legibility or comprehension, especially on web offset printing on newsprint...
it's as if they just wanted a flashy piece of ephemera that no one will really read.
Oh!
Maybe it is advertising for National then... -
Hard News: Privacy and the Public Interest, in reply to UglyTruth,
Parke's recreation...
the golden rule of statutory interpretation
(Baron Parke’s rule)aaah!
The original Well Read Baron!
Lord Wensleydale himself...
Say Cheese!Perhaps of passing interest:
Baron Parke Rises From the DeadOther dramatis personae:
The Black Stone
or is it Blackstone
more likely Bill Blackstone
his ratio lives on:the principle that it "is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer".
all interesting stuff...

Evidence.
There’s nothing but evidenceThus far.
But yes, that,
and observers,
observing …Your soliloquy needs a book or movie written around it, if not a competition for best dramatic delivery, as well.
Brilliant summation.
