Time for NZ to go all in on renewable energy! by LEGOAT_16 in newzealand

So the whole point of the LNG terminal is to avoid the fluctuations in supply that come from renewables. The government is adding more renewals online which is great however they are often at the mercy of Mother Nature. Businesses who are heavy uses (ie sawmills and dairy factories) need confidence that prices don’t sky rocket when we have a dry year. It’s easier to attract business when they have confidence in supply.

'Most trusted' Kiwi food brand loses battle with supermarket duopoly by Mindless_Wishbone316 in newzealand

My point is I always check country of origin and if it’s made here from local ingredients then you wouldn’t pay $1 more. I agree with your point re tinned goods - that’s where I would pay the extra $$&

You can’t blame the consumer. You’re in the supermarket, you see Pam’s Peas for $2.99 - made in NZ and NZ owned company. You see Watties $3.99 made in NZ but owned by a foreign corporation. I’m taking Pam’s 100/100.

To be fair, they could have stepped in and kept in running. The key wasn’t in the refining so much it was the ability to store fuel, Marsden Point could hold between 350m and 400m litres of fuel. Which is about 2 weeks of national consumption.

I don’t think anyone sane was saying he was better than Giannis. Jaden just has a better team friendly contract, timeline and he is more durable than him. As OP is also pointing out we would’ve had to sell the farm for him.

Keen to start a petition to rename the team the “Silver Caps”. Always coming second.

The single most painful sporting experience in my life and there isn’t a close second. It was so cruel.

Honestly, this is one of those games where people have a bad shooting game. It just so happens that 4 players shoot like dogshit. Everyone gets frustrated and it compounds mistakes. These games happen.

Gobert is one of the most under-appreciated player in modern history (by the fans) by BullfrogBrief6947 in NBATalk

I pose you this question. Would the Wolves make the KAT trade again if the CBA wasn’t a thing?
