Friends investigated importing flat-pack homes from California post-ChCh-earthquake but found curious and unsustainable inflation of the container costs, far beyond similar containers carrying other products. It was noted at the time that the shipping company had links to Fletchers.
A basic dehumidifier would be more useful. Might also be worth checking the underfloor vents, it sounds like theres an abnormal amount of moisture in that dwelling.
It will be interesting to see what turns up when the 4x4 EVs are finally available. Having four independently powered, computer controlled motors should have very smooth performance, no matter what the surface: tarmac, gravel, ice or mud.
My BNZ password access is either by my thumbprint on the iPhone or a 9 digit alpha-numeric that is stored electronically, encrypted, behind a 12 digit upper-lower case password. If they would turn me down in spite of those precautions, its time for a new bank. (P.S. all on-line purchases are actually made from a debit card that is pre-loaded with the correct sum required immediately prior to purchase.)
Looking after all is going to be very, very, VERY expensive. Without limitless resources, what or who do you propose should have their funding reduced?And what would be the unintended consequences of those funding cuts? For example, picking the funding cut du jour, the Orion aircraft replacements, would deprive us of an important tool for protecting whales etc from illegal poaching. ?Where do you draw the line(s)
Seems we need better assessment of the so-called dropouts plus, more importantly, better information on what the career prospects are for the various degrees. Its a common complaint that after glowing claims by the universities and all that money spent, there were no jobs to be had in NZ or they had very limited chances of advancement. Physiotherapy, Dietetics and quite a few scientific disciplines come to mind.
Hopefully one or other of the NZ Coalitions will have the balls/ovaries to impose a fiscally neutral Carbon levy to start the dreaded process of weaning NZers off our fossil fueled vehicles.
Well, thats their opinion, but with food, art and language its borrowing not misappropriation. I like â˜Hawaiian ham & pineapple pizza even if many not even Italian regard it as an abomination. Food especially is littered with themes that bear little resemblance to the original but who cares if it tastes good.
How can a building be prone to earthquakes? It might be prone to damage from earthquakes or vulnerable in an earthquake. The region or country its located in can be considered prone to earthquakes, but not structures or geological features.
Jamie may well rub people the wrong way, but having seen the school lunches fiascos, its clear a lot of people need a good kicking. Theres way too much complacency and arse-covering these days.
Whats a criminal conviction worth if the related law is itself criminal? Is the death penalty warranted for standing up for womens rights? The fact that no convictions resulted may just be an indication of the arse-covering that followed the revelation of corruption.Trying to stifle unwelcome views by banning then serves only to emphasise them. Better to let them be heard in the sterilising sunlight than attempting to bury them.

Valuable scientific instrument saved from life as bach feature light

Isn't it time expensive utes were actually all-wheel drive?

Kapiti Expressway: more cracks and still waiting for repairs to leaky surface
My heart bleeds for the poor dears. They should visit Christchurch preferably driving down via Kaikoura.
