  • Hard News: Music: Radio is still relevant,

    What is it with Student radio and "Americana" shows always on Sunday arvo/evenings?

    Not that I'm complaining .... The Radio Active one has become a weekly must listen for me at work, only problem with it is that it's followed but a reggae show that's slowly turning to more and more boring Dub instead of the original Dancehall, Roots, Reggae and Dub.

    Often have Somafm.com running in the background the rest of the time..... Came across that one at my local craft beer bar which runs it's 480minutes show on the sound system.

  • Hard News: The Golden Mile,

    Whoops... I'd like to correct my earlier post.
    That'd be $1k sqm not $10k.
    Sorry.

  • Hard News: The Golden Mile,

    I can't help but wonder if the small shops is a result in part from the insanely high rents charged on retail space with high foot traffic counts?
    Difficult to cover the cost of rent on larger spaces.
    I'm not sure what Q street rents are but it can't be less than what I was recently quoted on a shop on Cuba st in welly I was thinking of opening in........ $10k per square meter per annum plus GST plus 100% of outgoings, although that was in an earthquake strengthened building I guess?

  • OnPoint: SECRET MILITARY LULZ, in reply to Ian Dalziel,

    Wideband Global Satellite (WGS) programme, which is a network of nine military satellites built by Boeing and operated by the US Department of Defence.

    Might as well just CC everything automatically to the relevant desks at the pentagon and State departments while your at it.

  • Hard News: Bishop Brian: It's worse than…, in reply to Susannah Shepherd,

    That was my gut reaction, too, but it depends on how the contracts were written. If it was a fixed price contract and they delivered everything they promised (quantity and quality), then there's not a problem - especially as the 'profit' was only 0.5% of the total funding.

    Yes 0.5% plus of course the "wages" they mentioned which of course get a nice big wet bite taken out of them by Destiny..... Unless you think that Destiny won't be hiring Destiny members to do the work?
