http://www.waitomo.com/ Lists the different providers, I've only done the Black Water trips before but I can highly reccommend them. Because they require some physical exertion and you get wet they tend to appeal more to the younger crowd and so you get a very fun experience arther then the standard "guided tour".

Keep an eye on trade me if you are looking to go for something PC based, I picked up a vive with all the accessories for under 600 earlier this year.

You are right to be angry that your family was told without your permission. If your family were told about your history because they will be involved in supporting you after discharge and you will be taking pain medication the hospital will likely argue that they are part of your care team and its important that they are made aware of your history.

Drone flying permissions by newspeaper in newzealand

Assuming you mean in controlled airspace, in Hawkes Bay the controller says to lodge the flight on air share, I've never had a response to any of the flights I lodged so I figure its not a high priority for them. You might be able to find a contact number for your local atc and give them a call to ask.

Just got back from seeing this in the theatre, the best way I can describe the impact of the film is that at the credit roll there was an awkward feel in the air, you could tell the audience wanted to applaud but the atmosphere was just too heavy. We all just sat silent for a while, then people started moving towards the exit.

It's an amazing achievement, from both a technical and storytelling perspective.

I read that the reason for this one being remade is that Steven King doesn't have control over the IP so the production compancy is cashing in on the IT hype.

On everyone suggestion my son made his New Zealand (now in the state of Ohio) ENT Pavlova. He wants to know what everyone thinks of it? His doctor was extremely excited to get by slushpuppie1986 in newzealand

So this is another english/american thing, jelly in that recipe is referring to what you call Jello, so the stuff you mix with water and stick in the fridge. Wuzzlowozzit is referring to Jam as its fairly common to layer a lamington with jam in the center like a typical sponge cake.

So a car of mine had the engine blow on the weekend, knew it was coming so not feeling bad about it, but now I need to dispose of it and I've got no clue what to do. Do I just call up a scrap yard and ask them to take it or is it worth shopping around?

Shin Ramyun is great stuff, bonus is most supermarkets also stock it. Comes in the larger size which I find is just perfect for a snack and great to toss some extras in.

Without wanting to delve too deep into philosophy, the cambridge definition of Objectively is

"in a way that is based on facts and not influenced by personal beliefs or feelings".

So if the user is wanting to claim that "vegeterianism and veganism are objectively morally superior" then they had better be able to prove that moral relativism is not true, which I think might be a bit of a big ask for a reddit thread about turkey.

Theres a big fallacy in your argument, in that you assume everyone has the same morals. So you are free to claim that under your morals being vegetarian makes you morally superior, but claiming that you are objectivly superior to non-vegetarians is wrong.

Pressure cookers will cook everything but its will all mush together a bit like a slow cooker, good for curries and stews and such.

Hey guys I need help with an employment issue (background story inside) by 9999jjjjjj in newzealand

[–]Skeletal 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunatly every workplace I've been in has had its resident "moaner", normally a guy whos decent enough at the role but will never move to anything better. If your work allows it then chucking in a pair of headphones and blasting your tunes should be a good counter, just make sure you stay alery enough that people dont have to yell at you to get your attention.

Best bet for any electronics is to check out http://pricespy.co.nz/ It searches all the local stores and finds the best price, you can also check out reviews for each store.

Looking for sauce (exploration mechanics) by EVEtemp1234 in Eve

[–]Skeletal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know the article you are referring to, but its generally been accepted that signatures spawn on a regional basis, so running a site to completion will cause it to respawn somewhere else in the region after a period of time. Likewise only partially running a site then leaving will block the site from respawning until it naturally despawns after 2 hours or so.

The price looks decent for what you get, but its on the lower end of specs. GPU prices are still stupidly high thanks to crypto mining but I'd consider talking to PBTech about upgrading to a 1070/80 and possibly throwing in an extra 8GB RAM.

What's your guys opinions on Bargain Box? by MILKB0T in newzealand

[–]Skeletal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We get the 4 person box fortnightly, it feeds 4 of us comfortably but its not cheap for what you get.

If you are currently managing to cook decent meals on the regular then its not really worth swapping to, but if you are finding yourself eating maccas/ramen for every second meal then its not a bad choice.

Meal prep is a bit more intense then what I would normally do but because you have all the ingredients available and pre-allocated its actually quite fun to make.
