‘Technology allowing police and other authorities to identify the location of callers may become mandatory for all cellphones in New Zealand in a move to improve the 111 emergency calling system.
…The location of callers using mobile phones was not independently available at present, the review said.
“This is a significant public safety issue since calls from mobile phones comprise the majority of 111 calls and are steadily increasing.”
…..It noted the technology was costly but there was some potential to offset that through commercial applications such as advertising messages sent to shoppers’ phones as they passed particular shops….‘
Got it? What an elegant idea….tag the citizens with a tracking device, and make them pay for it themselves by selling the ability to target them with ads to the highest bidder.
And justify the whole filthy exercise by claiming it’s for their own safety.

This is just the latest ‘advanced stone-age’ vessel of theirs to get into trouble.

No doubt more taxpayer’s money will fix the problem.

Boy subsequently taken into protective custody.
“The men blame their predicament on innocent visits to three men in the US, New Zealand and Germany, who, to their complete surprise, turned out to be collectors and producers of child pornography. All three were arrested last year…”
Professor Bunyip has the sordid details, and the shameful Aussie press spin of these two being the victims of intolerance.

This was community members doing what community members do best and that was getting off our arses and getting the food out to people”
THE distraught mayor of a farming community wondered aloud on a phone call how locals would feed their families because floods had cut off their supply routes. Hours later this pilot landed with a cargo of food and supplies..’
The mercy dash and the mystery pilot
We’ve had a fair bit of experience with being in communities cut off by the Wet, and every time the hi-viz vest clipboard warriors have been involved, resupply has turned into a circus. When they weren’t, the process has been simple and efficient. Every time.

‘..President Obama appointed lesbian activist Chai Feldblum over the weekend to the five-member board of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), the government office responsible for handling workplace discrimination complaints.
…Obama bypassed the need for a Senate vote, where the appointment had garnered bipartisan opposition, by appointing Feldblum while the chamber was on recess Saturday.
..”Sexual liberty should win in most cases,” Feldblum once wrote in 2006, according to a Christian Broadcasting Network report. “There can be a conflict between religious liberty and sexual liberty, but in almost all cases the sexual liberty should win because that’s the only way that the dignity of gay people can be affirmed in any realistic manner. I’m having a hard time coming up with any case in which religious liberty should win.” ‘
I can’t find any reference to “sexual liberty” in the Constitution.

‘..Mona Dotcom put her children to bed last night knowing the $4.3 million house neighbouring the family’s mansion was now under the control of the Government, at the urging of the United States.
It was the one part of New Zealand the family had been able to buy after the Government rejected their application to buy the $30 million mansion.’
Hmmm..the government rejected it, after accepting a bribe to grant residency. Suddenly Dotcom wasn’t a “fit and proper person”!
‘…But it has emerged police officers also removed items of value that were not on the initial court order, including Mrs Dotcom’s jewellery.
The jewellery did not emerge on any legal order until February 1. In that order, executed yesterday, there were 15 pieces of jewellery listed – but already taken…‘
Something stinks here. And not just the business of the jewellery. The whole things reeks of oppressive abuse of power in the service of special interests. The barely-concealed glee of the NZ media as they recount the assets seized reeks of envy and a vicious dislike of business success, too.
And let’s not forget..this man and his associates are still innocent in the eyes of what passes for the law in NZ.

A magnificent rant!    Excerpt:
‘PASSENGERS at airports across Australia will be forced to undergo full-body scans or be banned from flying under new laws to be introduced into Federal Parliament this week.
…..Do you see the problem, (Transport Minister) Albanese? Do you really expect us to believe things will be markedly better here? Do you really expect it not to deteriorate into queues and queues of people doubled up like game snakes waiting to be herded through the scanners? Do you see why a trip to Tel Aviv to learn from a country that’s no more loved by the Islamaloons than us or the UK or the US but has had just one incident in the last decade, which even then was a frigging mistake, could have been so much more effective?
The whole thing HERE

‘..Hear it from the United States Defence Department or the White House, and the war in Afghanistan is a success story allowing combat operations to cease a year early.
Listen, however, to Lieutenant-Colonel Daniel Davis, veteran of two tours, and the 11-year conflict is a failure bordering on a disaster that those in power have concealed from Congress and the American people..’
Richard Fernandez has more.

‘..Despite his enormous success, the self-taught painter has been ignored by the establishment which has refused to display his works…’
Why am I not surprised? Vettriano is a self-taught ex-miner. Good heavens, that won’t do at all! The lefty wankers who infest the art world may pay lip-service to the “dignity of the working man”, but he’d better remember his place….

‘Get more women into the boardroom to save our economy, says Cameron
David Cameron will today look at controversial plans for so-called ‘golden skirt quotas’, which would force business leaders to ensure that women are fairly represented in the boardroom…’
