The Pretender: Series 1, Episodes 1-5 (DVD)

2005. Duration: 112 Minutes

Classic Kiwi political satire

'The Pretender' is a smart, satirical and biting examination of our nation's leaders; the people behind them; and the jealousy, megalomania, fear, confusion, desperation, and occasional (generally brief) elation that mark another typical day at the office. Filmed in a 'mockumentary' style, we follow National Party candidate and budding politician Dennis Plant as he claims the seat for Wakatipu South and quickly becomes the voice of a piece of New Zealand we always knew existed but have never actually seen in person...

Ratepayers face “significant” added costs to demolition plans for Hamilton’s defunct Founders Theatre as opponents make a last-ditch plea to the courts.

Their lawyers have asked the city council stop all work towards the demolition of the theatre, according to an email from acting Hamilton City Council boss Sean Murray.

The Theatre of the Impossible Trust (TOTI) intends to seek a review of the council’s decision through the High Court.

In May, councillors voted 9-4 to demolish Founders and transform the site into a multipurpose park.

Baruch Lev

Brookings Institution Press, 2000. Paperback, 231 pages, excellent condition

This book is the first comprehensive, scientifically based study of the nature and impact of intangibles.

Weaving case studies and real-world examples with contemporary business theory, Baruch Lev establishes an economic framework to analyse managerial and investment issues concerning intangibles;

- surveys the impact of intangibles on corporate performance and market values, including management difficulties, risk, questions of property rights, marketability, and cost structure;
- analyses information deficiencies associated with intangibles, including the major economic principles governing intangible investments, limits of management information systems, and recommendations for improved accounting disclosure;
- sets forth a comprehensive information system—aimed at satisfying the needs of both internal and external decision makers—to reflect the impact and value of intangibles within the context of enterprise performance.

Spark have recently announced a price increase of $3 - $5 a month for new and existing broadband customers and other providers seem likely to follow suit.

Information collated by our research team has found that tens of thousands of Kiwis are still missing out on hundreds of dollars of savings each year on their broadband bill, because they are failing to shop around for cheaper broadband plans.

We estimate that over 500,000 households would be able to pay less for their broadband each month but many consumers are unaware of the fact that they could be making these savings and people often don’t know where to start when looking for a change in broadband plan or provider.

This is where NZ Compare can help. Our websites are simple to use and if you need more help, our friendly, Auckland based, customer support centre can advise on the most suitable broadband plan for your needs and help talk you through the switch. With unlimited fibre broadband plans available for less than $60 a month why would you pay more?

Find out more at NZ Compare or call the team on 0508 226672

CORRECTION: This post has been amended to clarify that the price of fibre and copper broadband internet services will increase, and that the increase is between $3 and $5 a month, not only $5 a month on fibre broadband plans as previously posted. (Amended at 10.31am, June 23, 2022)
