    Dalton said there is a deadline of August 30 next year to decide whether Auckland will be ready to host the event. "The only reason we went to the America's Cup was to bring it back here. We're really clear about that, this is where we want to hold it but we've got nothing in place yet. "I think it's only responsible for the challengers if there is a natural disaster or whatever happens that we couldn't hold it here.

  11. ruskie chick calls home by mistake? Mikhailov was found safe and uninjured around 3.30pm, Metcalfe said. "It is encouraging that the woman in this instance was carrying a device which could help her to raise the alarm if she ran into trouble and we're glad in this instance she was OK." Metcalfe said police do however recommend that people spend time to ensure they know how to use their devices before setting out on a tramp. https://www.stuff.co.nz/auckland/local-news/northland/97264427/rescuers-help-track-down-tourist-after-desperate-facebook-plea-from-mum-in-russia

  14. a little more AIs sat track in today's herald Rocket Lab will carry four satellites during its second test launch, some time after the next vehicle is taken to Mahia Peninsula next month.

    waka wrecking
