  • Hard News: The best blogger there never was,

    Yup. Stung to the tune of six grand for his troubles, too.

    Stuff has more, including some novel legal arguments:

    [Slater's lawyer Gregory] Thwaite also argued that New Zealand's official languages were English, Maori and New Sign language.

    Any mention of a person's name which occurred in other languages or through pictures was not a breach of law.

    Burns said anything which led to the identification of an individual protected by name suppression was a breach of the court order.

    "A name is a name is a name. Whether its spoken, whether its written or whether its established by a pictogram."

    They walk among us:

    Mr Garrett said his own jaw had been broken in two places after he was attacked from behind.

    I notice Mr Garrett has not backed this up by producing the original x-rays.

  • Hard News: Little pieces of a big picture,

    You want to join me with pitchforks? I'm back again for a bit this summer.

    I'd thought a trident was the weapon of choice for resolving television news vendettas, but hey, whatever works.

    Oh George, don't be silly.

    You know that HAARP caused the earthquake.

    Those comments...

    Eyes are everywhere on this one Nina – the skies are blanketed in the metal filth again. I have more photos of the disgusting dawn, Pink glowing crap everywhere – which has become quiet ‘normal’.

    The east coast fog bank is where they operate out of – the fog never leaves… 100′s of people are awakening we see them and are monitoring. They are FOOLISH. Cameras and video footage are coming in from the most surprising places. They are also operating along the Alpine fault. Some friends have gone bush (into the mountain range behind us) to check some coordinates that we have taken. The HAARP activity fans out from three different locations. Two from the east coast fog line and one in the mountain range. The sleepers are in for the shock of their lives.

    It appears they haven’t finished with us yet. Main stream is burbling about the Alpine fault line – but there are awake people right across this area too recording every flight movement.

    Reminds some of us of the huge 1931 Napier quake when a US Navel ship happened to be sighted off the coast. My deceased Nana was involved in that one. This technology is lethal. We know how long they have been messing with this technology now – frightening stuff. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1931_Hawke%27s_Bay_earthquake

    Reports/pics from the North Islands East coast have the same filthy skies – chemical glow.

    My brain is addled from chemical assault, EMFs. Can hardly string two thoughts together but we wont let that stop us.

  • Up Front: No Smoke,

    I remember it got a lot more interesting riding or driving through the Auckland university district after the place was fully iPodestrianised.

  • Busytown: The shakes,

    This morning's Herald online poll:

    What do you think of Civil Defence's reaction to the Christchurch earthquake?

    - Really quick
    - Too slow

    All bases nicely covered there...

  • Hard News: The Suicide Question,

    enjoin, enjoy

    From Ian's superb link, I couldn't resist quoting this:

    J.P. is a good fighter. He's a man of action, see. Sometime last year he was at home hoovering and cleaning his house one night. He got a call. J.P.'s a sweet kid... still is. There was a dude down at a local hillbilly night club (they have these in Tennessee) who slapped $500 on the table and said he'd fight anyone.

    J.P.'s mate told him to come down, J.P. said he would. I think he finished his hoovering first. I like J.P. because he puts first things first. He's not the biggest guy in the world (but he's not small either), and he said afterwards that if he knew what the guy at the night club looked like, then he wouldn't have gone down.

    But he didn't know and so he went - Awfully primal this. J.P. is fast. This is all beginning to remind me of the Clash album "Cut the Crap." Man there's heaps around, crap that is. I put up posters. Other people express these things in different ways, some are Pacifists. There's no point to war, we all know this, but man there's plenty of wars. Sad that is.

    Poetry is uplifting.

    You know the end of the story: J.P. went down and blitzed the dude and got the $500. J.P. and the other bloke are friends now and there's some respect there. They both know where each other is “coming from”. William Burroughs famously talked about the Naked Lunch being where everyone could see what was on the end of the fork. Wouldn't you like to see it all clearly if you could? But you turn on TV and you see Charlie Sheen and then you see Lindsay Lohan and then it's followed by some politician ripping off the world and getting away with it.

  • Hard News: The Southern Apps,

    if I were to be in the market for a new one I'd find it hard to ignore the Archos 3 Vision A steal at under $150.

    I'm genuinely tempted. Anyone know what kind of rep Archos has for reliability, though?

    Now this is just sensational. I salute you, sir.
