Yeah, that's what I meant, although I see how my comment has "flipped" it.

Serious crash in Bay of Plenty closes part of State Highway One

 

At no point does SH1 enter the Bay of Plenty.

 

 

They reported the same thing for a crash near Taupo a few weeks ago. Maybe it's jealousy and they just want to be in the Bay of Plenty.

Auckland man fined while waiting for family in loading zone

 

You have to go all the way through the article, which is mostly him whingeing, and then into the comments to see that it should read:

 

Auckland man uses signposted "Goods Vehicles Only" spot for his car, whinges to Stuff when he gets fined

He told Stuff he was only stopped in the loading zone for two-and-a-half minutes

 

"I only broke the law for two and a half minutes!"

 

I'm sure if someone only spent two and a half minutes robbing or assaulting him then he wouldn't consider that a valid defence...

Its such a bad story that not even the "journalist" who wrote it is prepared to publicly own it

I resisted clicking for several hours. It turns out there is nothing to be concerned about so I will link. The headline is terrible but probably accurate and intended for reaction clicks:

 

https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/360502591/what-we-know-about-david-seymours-love-life

 

The original is in the NZ Herald "Society Insider" section. It is normal content for that events-about-town column area. It appears Seymour and Martelli both confirmed. I'd guess the story would not have been printed or may have been approached differently if they had declined to comment. The NZ Herald article has a picture of the two together attending some formal event or another which the columnist and/or photographers also attended as media usually does for those kinds of things:

Stuff...

 

 

I guess that small plane would have trouble reaching Sydney, so it makes sense going to Auckland instead.

 

Oh, it's not the plane, not even the same model? /s

It a representative image of a plane - just for those of their readers who are not really sure what that is.





Sometimes I just sit and think. Other times I just sit.

This may be a step in future Capcha development...
An event-horizon moment when testing flips for robot / human.
When pictures are presented that any self-respecting AI robot will get right - but humans get wrong.
So we'll be identified as human - by screwing up ;-(

They seem to have replaced the picture on their website with an Air New Zealand A320 now. Still not quite right though, because it looks like it’s a domestic one (rather than the “Neos” they use across the Tasman).
