    <p>When looking for information about Jonah's memorial on the Herald mobile site I found an article about a house being sold at Auckland and the guy didn't get as much as he wanted for it. No shit, it was what the article was about. He made a capital gain of course but he got a few hundred thousand less than what he wanted and it warranted an article. WTF.</p>

    <p>No link sorry because why would I direct people towards that.</p>

    <p>I read that and liked reading it. He turned down $1.9m as he thought it was worth $2m and it had a CV of $1.125m. So he did a $1 reserve on trade me and only got $1.5m</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>It was a great story on how greed can get the better of you.</p>

    <p>That's an interesting way, some might say generous way of interpreting that article (I did chuckle at that too) - which I don't think was the intention of the writer. ;)</p>

    Studio DENIES Leonardo DiCaprio is 'raped twice by a bear in his new film The Revenant' in actor's latest bid for Oscar glory&nbsp;
    

    <ul class=""><li><strong>Leonardo DiCapriowas rumored to be raped by a bear twice in his new film The Revenant according to a claim made by Drudge Report</strong></li>
    <li><strong>The film is based on a novel of the same name which tells the story of frontiersman Hugh Glass</strong></li>
    <li><strong>Glass was attacked by a bear in 1823 in South Dakota and nearly died, but it was a female bear protecting her two cubs</strong></li>
    <li><strong>The bear in the book is also a female and there is no mention of a rape</strong></li>
    <li><strong>'There is clearly no rape scene with a bear,' said Fox in a statement </strong></li>
    <li><strong>Reviews of the film are embargoed, but many believe it will win five-time Oscar nominee DiCaprio his first Academy Award </strong></li>

    I was hoping for some sort of nativity themed tatt, maybe with pit ills around the manger. If you see it post it here?

    <p>ohn Campbell did an interview with metro, make sure you have a tissue ready they even included some photos of him looking sad <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.metromag.co.nz/current-affairs/john-campbell-after-the-fall/'>http://www.metromag.co.nz/current-affairs/john-campbell-after-the-fall/</a></p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>A quick recap of things they didn't really touch on or glossed over,</p>
    <p>If he was fired by friends of the government why is he now working for state owned radio NZ? </p>
    <p>The ratings were sucking at tv3 until he pleaded with viewers to watch it and ratings rose, thats artificial and I reckon unsustainable.</p>
    <p>The quality of the journalism on the show was appalling , he had two complaints upheld for being dishonest even after the show was taken off the air. Historically it had been terrible, this wasn't a new thing [the interview with Len Brown was a new low,as was giving Eliota Sapolu a chance to rant even though he is full of shi<span style="color:rgb(85,85,85);font-family:'Droid Sans', sans-serif;font-size:13px;">t, </span>being Nicky Hagars shill over corngate and dirty politics was even worse].</p>
    <p>The leftard bias of the show [and three news] appears to be unfashionable at the moment and was getting worse as time went on, sadly this means that Henry and Hosking are what people want to see which is something I find baffling.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Having said that the management at tv3 seem to have few clues, their website scout has been a disaster since it went live ,3d was probably even worse that Campbell in its journalistic integrity, story is tanking in the ratings  and name suppression will be lifted soon on the female tv3 exec who took to an employees glass desk with a hammer while she was sitting at it. Add to that the government bailing them out of their licence fee a few years ago, the rise of other tv viewing options and the amount of shows that did rate for them that they have had to shed and things don't look good for tv3 at all.</p>

    I made the mistake of reading some of the Stuff comments on the story about the stormy weather in and around Auckland yesterday. The inferiority complex a lot of NZers have towards Auckland was something to behold. Apparently I need to move south if I want to experience a "real NZ summer" as it's a lovely day here in insert name of town south of Taupo. At least 95% of the comments were having a dig at Auckland.
