Wonder if, on that basis, if real estate agents will add google streetview links to their own photos.

And to bring it all back to Coddington -- it would be nice if she'd tried to assess some of the films named in that NZFC report as art rather than judge them as commerce.
Hear hear. I'm happy with NZ movies making money and being a commercial success. I'm also happy with the Film Commission supporting quality NZ movies, which might not bring in the big bucks.
Both things together is ideal, but either one out of two also works out OK.

Also the 2009 Super 14 jerseys were revealed. I'll do my proper "analysis" tomorrow (ps. If anyone from Adidas reads this drop me a quick line, cheers)
Seriously, did the Super 14 not think this through?
One jersey for playing at home, one jersey for playing away. Great idea, the NHL has been doing this for decades. Check out the tops.
Highlanders: Home top blue, great. Away top maroon red.
Crusaders: Home top red...
Reds: Home top redCrusaders playing Highlanders at Christchurch (which will be in 2010, discounting playoff games): Red vs Red.
Reds playing Highlanders in Queensland (again, 2010): Red vs Red.
And the blues: Two blue tops, the major difference white panels under the arms. Their home and away tops are pretty much the same in colour?
Blues playing away vs any team playing in blue any year: Blue vs blue.
How difficult would it have been to say (again, like the NHL), your away top has to be primarily white/light grey? Are these people qualified to run a social sports league, let alone a professional one?

So was Hitler. By which I mean, it's not a quality per se.
I dunno. The goose-stepping that lots of the people are doing on that post, kinda funny. I can see John Cleese doing it now. "Your factual interjections are not welcome! Not welcome I tell you! Schnell!"

There's three ways to look at this:
1. The glass is half full.
2. The glass is half empty.
3. Craig's "just cause the water in the glass has finally got some colour in it for the first time, we shouldn't call it black."Up to you which one you follow I guess.

Oh and they turned around before they got to Milford sound you can see why though
Possibly not summer.

'Flat' is the type of wickets we'll need to keep preparing in NZ to win over the next couple of years.
On a side tangent, does anyone know why our first class games are 4 days? It seems obvious to me that part of the reason that our batsman aren't any good at batting for more than a day is that our domestic cricket has a structure which discourages it. Particularly given that more often than not you're going to lose some time to weather in NZ.
Does any other cricket do four days for 1st class?

OTOH, we had this friend who used to get his female mates to go up to new girls at parties and say 'See that guy? Stay away from him'. Worked like a charm.
I have friends that do that, but they're just being honest. And I only find out about it later.
Of course, a woman would have to sit on my lap for me to know that she was flirting with me, so maybe it's been working despite them and I'm just completely unaware.

Then again, you'd find pockets of people who would hold fast to the notion that he is not strictly African-American in the classic sense, not being descended from enslaved people.
Which is also interesting, given that he has two parents, one African, one American. Probably the term is more appropriate for him, than many 'African-Americans', who have two parents, both of whom can probably trace back their 'Americanism' back for over a century.

Destination will be on the leftAs much as it says they're walking directions, the way they go right past the street and turn around and go back along the street indicates that it's driving directions.
Also "Make a U-Turn"? Is google encouraging dangerous driving?
