Re: realestate pictures!

There is one major exception: Propvid (http://www.propvid.tv/). They hire a playboy model, a boat, and a helicopter if they must. Granted, a commercial can cost you $50,000. The houses they film are...

Re: Wages Question how much pie is mine

Why do they have to make it so bloody complicated. They should replace this with a national sales tax.

Re: laptops

Neither! USA is the cheapest place. It's $1000 more in AU. Buy the laptop in the states, pay for shipping and adaptor $100-$150 more. Save $900-950! Look at ebay for more savings. They are profiting...

Re: And the challenge of migration? News Story

If they bring in university educated people, I don't see a problem. If they bring in the peasantry, like USA, I do because they would be importing poverty, people with little prospects and little...

Re: Twenty year old conviction---still a problem?

Each of us has a different experience. It does not make it more or less ridiculous. Dismissing it as such is childish. He needs to read my view, your view, other's view, and he needs to make his own...

Re: Twenty year old conviction---still a problem?

Your husband wants to jump the pond without knowing anything about the other shore. It's nothing like in the movies or TV series. Lately, there has been a lot of filming in the Hollywood of the north...

Re: Twenty year old conviction---still a problem?

This may be futile. Your husband will most likely hate USA when he realises that he has little to no vacation, few benefits coming from a 4-5 week annual vacation to 8 days is going to be very hard...

Re: Life in New Zealand as a scientist 3 years on.

I have not heard of it. Stem cells are a bit of problem here. The Redneck In Chief has outlawed federal money towards stem cell research. I am not aware if the law differentiates between embryonic...

Re: Whistle Blowing

Australia is not United States where they let 12 million Mexicans jump the fence with no consequences. He'll get what's coming to him sooner or later.

Re: driving licences

What's so hard about shifting gears? Passenger cars are not trucks. You don't have to synchronise before you shift. They have synchronisers. I don't know why people are afraid of manual.

Re: Life in New Zealand as a scientist 3 years on.

I am not sure to what you refer. Climate can mean weather, politics, economics, etc. New England and California are your best bet. Though, Californians are known more for computer science,...

Re: Life in New Zealand as a scientist 3 years on.

You definitely chose the wrong place. The best place for a university researcher is United States, especially with "Oxford" on a resume. You won't get tenure the next day, but if you can tolerate the...

Re: driving licences

Yes, but if that is the way, they have no way of checking. Anyone can say anything. Since 98% of the cars in America are made for lazy, multi tasking yanks who can't drive and eat with one hand and...

Re: Our story 2 1/2 years

You still don't need a gaming rig to run that stuff. A circa 2001 computer should be capable. How did you do it back in 2001? I bet they had the same protocol.

Re: driving licences

Driver licences in USA do not mention whether you are automatic/manual transmission qualified. I wonder if Australia have that distinction.

Re: Our story 2 1/2 years

IT being 10 years behind. What a load of bollocks! It's the same in the USA. High schools upgrade computers every 10 years, it seems. Universities upgrade every 5 years, and even then, they are low...

Re: Book your flight tickets now.

Bollocks, airlines hedge by buying tomorrow's oil at today's prices. At least, they should be, or they go out of business.
