The Rvmes have a new single! Album’s on the way! So they’re the featured Kiwi artists; and we’re also celebrating the fabulous singing and musical talents of Margaret Urlich, on tomorrow’s She’ll Be Right on Saturdays Show with PJ Taylor, 3-7pm (NZ time) August 13 on East FM.

The Rvmes (pronounced rooms) rocked Howick last year at Uxbridge, when they were grabbing attention with the awesome talent and enthusiasm they have for putting on a high energy concert of pop-rock movers. Their music got lots of plays all over the country, with one song being used for a prominent advertising campaign, which hopefully is paying the bills.
We’ll be talking live with The Rvmes’ dynamic frontman of positivity, Edwin Judd (vocals, guitar), at 6pm, and we’ll spin their tracks throughout She’ll Be Right, including the new single, What’s Troublin’ You.
The Rvmes are completed by Miro Gibson (guitar), Ronaldo Lima (bass), Logan Fox (drums) and new guitarist Richard Moore.
Margaret Urlich, who sadly passed earlier this week, was a music legend on our home turf of Auckland’s central-western suburbs in the 1980s, and I’m pretty sure from memory she and her brother Pat were Avondale College alumni.
Our mate, drummer Gary Martin’s band Internal Fragments, opened for them on a few occasions, when Peking Man were on the rise. We got to see them up close and man, did everyone dance?! And then for Margaret came When’s The Cat’s Away and her stylish solo career. She was a class act.
The black and white photos featuring Margaret are from the original Stranded in Paradise book (1988), the cultural treasure by John Dix, New Zealand Rock’n’Roll 1955-1988.
We’ll also take the usual tour of the musical neighbourhoods, on the She’ll Be Right Show with PJ that beams out of East FM, East Auckland’s community-powered public service radio station, on local frequencies 88.1FM and 107.1FM, nationally and globally at www.eastfm.nz... and on app iHeart Radio.
East FM is proudly the official broadcaster for www.howick175.co.nz...

(update)
I have been Looking for a good condition laptop for the titled tasks for quite a while from www.trademe.co.nz... but so far haven't found one suitable for the tasks (design, configuration, tuning, testing and being used for my own Tech businesses. already independently going through the 1, 2, 3, 4 steps before by myself alone, now wanting to iterate the process again and again for continuous improvements with the right tools) I planned for and within my budget, so I'm here to give it a try.
Requirements for the laptop I'm looking for:
1) Intel Core i7 CPU with Virtualization features, 8+GB RAM, SSD storage
2) Nvidia or AMD graphics card, Ethernet Connection 1000, SIM card slot, 4G LTE capabilities
3) Strong battery life, Windows 10 Pro OS
4) Light weight, including power adapter
5) Budget < $500
I have been multi-tasked working on the other Tech tasks I planned for myself, so I'm able to wait for, and start the other Tech tasks when they're ready and being well prepared. I'm my own Boss. I make plans for myself.
Best regards,
Qiubo Su

Recognising excellence, leadership and innovation in the New Zealand utility sectors, the NZ Compare Awards are back for the 6th year and in response to consumer demand, we have introduced MOBILE Awards for the first time.
As the boundaries between the utility industries continue to blur the organisers have responded to growing demand to increase the categories and industries celebrated by the NZ Compare Awards and will now recognise excellence and achievement within New Zealand’s BROADBAND, ENERGY and MOBILE sectors for the first time.
Award categories are consumer driven and informed by the 300,000 Kiwis who use NZ Compare websites each month. Winning carries real gravitas with the Kiwi consumer and the awards represent an opportunity to be confident in the talent and vision your company has worked so hard towards. This significant event will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services across these essential industries.
The NZ Compare Awards are supported by a wide range of companies including Movinghub, Vector Metering, Chorus, realestate.co.nz and Neighbourly. The prestigious awards will recognise the companies that provide New Zealanders with the very best products and services in their industries. With a range of different categories including best home and mobile provider, best customer support, fastest service, best rural provider and best broadband innovation.
Winning an NZ Compare Award depends on a combination of criteria. These include consumer surveys and reviews on the NZ Compare websites and decisions from our expert judging panel.
"Judged by an independent panel of New Zealand experts and presented at our gala awards event, the NZ Compare Awards provide a unique stage on which we recognize and reward the achievements of the New Zealand utility sectors." said Gavin Male, CEO of NZ Compare.
So what do you think? Give a shout out to your favourite utility provider here - not just for doing their job... we want to hear about those that go above and beyond! Who should be a winner?

Guide to Volunteering
Organizations recognise that older people bring a wealth of skills and expertise to volunteering. By passing on your skills and learning you can make a difference to people’s lives. Volunteering is also a good way to make new friends and improve general levels of health and fitness.
Become a coach or mentor
Older people's skills and experiences are highly valued in communities. You can put your work experience to good use by becoming a mentor or coach. In return you can develop your own interpersonal skills and remain active and involved in your community.
If you’re aged 60 and over, value your independence but want greater security, come and have a look at the superb properties we have to offer
