First fully electric cars available in NZ

The first fully electric car available in NZ, can be plugged in to charge just like a toaster.

Mon, 29 Sep 2008 5:57p.m.

Think electric-powered vehicles, think golf carts - right?

Not any more. The first fully electric, plug-in cars are about to hit New Zealand's streets and their performance is likely to turn the heads of even the biggest sceptic.

In November, Hyundai will become the first local car manufacturer to offer a zero-emission, electric car.

The cars will be retro-fitted locally, meaning their electric motors will be fitted after the petrol or diesel engine they arrive with, is taken out.

It is a version of the car that can be plugged in beside the toaster at home with no special plug required and the amount of electricity required to fully charge its batteries will not be too much more than using that toaster.

It costs about $2 per hundred km to run and has zero emissions.
So, what's the catch? The electric vehicle has the same acceleration and power as its petrol or diesel equivalent but it does have a lower top speed of around 120kph.
Power steering, air con, tow bar, air bags all come as standard features.
The battery costs around $3000 to replace, but only needs replacing about 3very eight years and they are fully recyclable.

The only real catch is the car's range and battery charge time.
It has a range of 120 km and a quick charge of anywhere between 1.5 and 3 hours which gives you 80% of battery life or about another 90km so it is perfect for the city commuter, but long distance is out of the question.

The cars cost around $40,000 NZ Dollars.

WHOLE NEW OPEN WARFARE!!!!

World of Warcraft. Wrath Of The LIch King. 14/11/08

Blizzard has officially announced the Release Date for the next expansion pack "Wrath of the Lich King" in the World of Warcraft series. The date has been set as November 13th for America and Novemeber 14th for Australia and New Zealand 2008.

Features

Some of the features announced at BlizzCon 2007 include:

• Level cap raised to 80
• Battle with the Lich King at the Frozen Throne
• One new playable class: Death Knight
• A new continent: Northrend
• The creation of a new profession: Inscription
• Profession level cap raised to 450
• New items, quests, dungeons, creatures, spells and weapons
• Siege weapons and destructible buildings (for PvP)
• New character-customization options, including new hairstyles and dances
• A non-instanced Battleground
• Improved Graphics Engine (applied to shaders, flame effects, water appearance and detailed shadows)
• New factions including the Speartusk and the Taunka, a racial cousin to the Tauren

Subsequent features announced or confirmed by Blizzard include:

• Achievements for both the expansion and existing content
• New non-inventory storage for Mounts, Vanity Pets, and battleground, arena, and raiding tokens.
• Built-in threat meter
• New Calendar feature
• Ability to link professions via chat
  

Instances

Several new instances will be included in the expansion pack. Another instance will appear in the Caverns of Time, set during the human campaign of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, in which Prince Arthas massacred the townspeople of Stratholme because they were infected by the plague. Many new 5-man, 10-man, and 25-man dungeons will be located in Northrend, including:

• Utgarde Keep - An instance in the Howling Fjord filled with the Vrykul, a Viking-like race devoted to serving the Lich King. It has two wings - Utgarde Keep, and Utgarde Pinnacle.
• Azjol-Nerub - The contested capital of the Nerubian race of spider-people.
• Icecrown Citadel - Players will battle Arthas the Lich King, the ruler of the Undead Scourge.
• Naxxramas - An updated version of the original Naxxramas, redesigned to cater for 10 and 25 man content.

Blizzard has also confirmed a new instance hub called the Nexus, home of the Blue Dragonflight, which will contain at least three instances. The first, a low 70s instance set in Ice Caverns, the second a high level instance seeing the player and their group face enemies on floating rings, and a final raid instance against the Blue Dragon Aspect Malygos, which takes place in a rift in the sky. It has also been confirmed that all raid instances included with the expansion will be both 10-man and 25-man versions. It has been stated that the quality of loot in 10 and 25 man versions will differ (i.e. 10 man version will be Tier 7, 25 man would be Tier 8)

Hero class

At BlizzCon 2007, Blizzard also announced the debut of Hero classes, a long awaited feature to World of Warcraft. Hero classes will consist of classes from Warcraft III that were too strong to play from level one or could not fit a primary class role. Currently, Blizzard has confirmed only one Hero class: the Death Knight. In an interview with one developer, he said that for the time being there is only one hero class, though more will be introduced in future expansions.

Death Knight

The Death Knight is the first announced Hero class for World of Warcraft. Death Knights, according to Blizzard developers, will be able to fulfill the tank and DPS roles sufficiently. Death Knights can use plate armor and new rune weapons like Runeswords and Runeaxes, but they cannot use shields. According to an interview, a Death Knight's summoned pets will be more similar to a Priest's Shadowfiend, a Mage's Water Elemental, or a Druid's Treants in that they are pets with a set duration. In the current beta stage death knights that have put a specific number of talent points into the Unholy Tree are granted full control over their ghoul like a hunter's or a warlock's pet (the ghoul is still set duration). The Death Knight will also be gaining the use of a new item called Sigil's which will be similar to a Shamans Totem slot, paladin's libram or a druids Idol.

Players who purchase Wrath of the Lich King will not be able to create a first-level Death Knight. Instead, players will be able to create one level 55 Death Knight on each realm if they have a character on any realm whose level is 55 or greater. Players who already meet this requirement will be able to create Death Knights at launch; others will be able to create one as they level to 55 on their other characters. Newly created Death Knights will begin with a full arsenal of spells and abilities. Both the Alliance and Horde factions will have access to the class, and may be of any race.

Instead of relying on rage, energy, or mana, the Death Knight will use a new resource system: runes, which will be displayed under the player portrait. The Death Knight has two of each rune available for use and after they are used they enter a ten second "cooldown" period before they can be used again. Currently each tree has talents that help speed up the cooldown on a certain set (blood, frost, unholy) of runes. With specific talents the Death Knight can also turn their runes into Death Runes which can be used as any of the three separate runes.

The Death Knight will also require an additional resource called Runic Power to cast some of their more powerful spells. Runic Power works similar to a warriors Rage in that it slowly builds up during combat (unlike warriors the Death Knight must cast spells requiring runes to gain runic power) and will decay over time when out of combat.

Inscription

The profession of Inscription is similar to the profession of Enchanting. However, Inscription permanently enhances the attributes of players' spells and abilities. For example, an "Inscriber" could take the Fireball spell, and give it the ability to knockback or daze an enemy. Inscribers will accomplish this by creating Glyphs that other players can put into their glyph spots (reached by opening up the talent tree and clicking on Glyphs. Glyphs can range from increasing the duration of Sap, reducing the cool down for Sprint, increasing the critical strike chance of Eviscerate etc. (all examples are for the rogue class)

Graphical improvements

Blizzard has announced that they will be revamping World of Warcraft's graphics engine to some degree with the release of the new expansion. For example, the developers are experimenting with a new shader to use in areas containing ice, also the fire effects and shadows in the game will be improved to seem more realistic.

Release of content patch

On August 25, 2008, Blizzard Poster Eyonix announced a release of a content patch which includes many of the new features in the expansion. This is similar to the way patch 2.0 was applied before The Burning Crusade.

With the release of Wrath of the Lich King approaching, we wanted to provide you with some important information. In preparation for the expansion, we will be issuing a new content patch in the coming weeks. Much like the patch made available shortly before The Burning Crusade's release, this content patch is designed to bridge current game content with that of the expansion and will contain some exciting changes and additions. We have outlined some of the larger features scheduled to release with the patch below:

• New class spells and talents
• Stormwind Harbor
• Barbershops in capital cities
• Zeppelin towers outside of Orgrimmar and Tirisfal Glades
• Two brand-new Arenas featuring challenging new layouts, terrain hazards, and moving obstacles
• Guild calendar
• Hunter pet skill revamp
• New profession: Inscription

As mentioned above, this is not a comprehensive list, just some of the major highlights. We’ll post the full patch notes as soon as they’re available. Regarding Inscription, please note that all Burning Crusade players will be able to select Inscription as one of their two professions and level up to a skill level of 375 with it. Upon the release of Wrath of the Lich King, players who purchase and install the expansion will be able to continue leveling in Inscription and the other professions beyond 375.

If your giving away a free house please consider me. I can be contacted on Leedar@xtra.co.nz or sometimes but my phone is not always charged at 64 27 2400 295. So free house wanted. I'd really put a new house to good use with playing lots of computer games and watching lots of tv and cooking really cool meals in the awesome kitchen and being warm in winter and cool in summer. I'd have the sunlight coming through the windows, and spend time occasionaly wandering round outside and growing a tree or something with not really having any lawns to mow but still large enough of an area fenced up with no neighbours really.

FREE HOUSE WANTED.

You could also make a donation towards a free house for me by clicking the paypal button on this site and using your credit card to donate the money. It's not really charity i'm enterprising.

FREE HOUSE WANTED.

Just Bought WWW.DarcyLee.Com.

Yep So I just Bought the world wide web address of http://www.darcylee.com/. It's Pointing to this site. Cost $31.44 NZ Dollars From http://www.discountdomains.co.nz/. My first .com address. My other address I own http://www.moviez.co.nz/ is a nz one as u can see not dot com.

So thats all the news. I got a new tv so i've got 2 tvs now. It's a 21" cheap one. Also got a new DVD Player. So got 2 DVD Players now. Also a new hard disk drive. 640Gb. Gives me 1.1 terrabyte of storage on my computer. Also got a cheap 5.1 surround sound speaker system. Cheap one.

Had a few hits from google on my no effort what so ever Pet Rock Shop. Most were searching for "Pet Rocks For Sale". I only set the site up to see if I would get any hits. I'd have to put more work into it to maybe sell a rock. Don't know how I would package a rock to send overseas if someone actually took me seriously. Lot of effort you know. Pet Rock Shop.

I haven't been doing any work on this website for ages, prolly because I havent made any money. Also I'm lazy also. Help me make money by donating to me. Some one suggested an FAQ. Well I need money for a house thats about all.

Aren't pertrol Prices High these days. Yeah Pertrol. This Website is weird. Yes. But donate anyway. FAQ I want money. (For A house). Heard the term LandBanking on the radio. Buy land, the price of the land goes up equals u are richer. Sorry when I don't make sense.

My House Is Freezing Cold.

I found the Pope's address benedictxvi@vatican.va

Wiki: Pope

My House is freezing cold. Brrrr.

Please buy me a house or donate towards my house. Cause i'm cool.

Employment Wanted.

Currently i'm living on the New Zealand invalids benefit earning NZ $260.69 per week in the hand. On this benefit i'm allowed to earn an extra NZ $100.00 per week before tax without affecting how much I receive from the benefit.

So I thought I would take advantage of being able to earn this extra money by advertising for a job on the internet. The job i'm seeking would be part time and basically you just pay my wages and I don't have to do anything.

I'm not qualified in anything and have no work experience other than defeating Osama Bin Laden and his terrorists. If you have a job available where I don't have to do anything at all and I still get paid then please contact me on leedar@xtra.co.nz.

Why would someone want to hire me to do nothing and still have to pay my wages. Maybe your rich and see how cool it would be to employ someone who gets paid and doesn't have to do anything at all. Thats all I can think of really I can't give a good reason why you should employ me to do nothing and still have to pay my wages.

So now I guess i'll just wait and see what amazing job offers I get. Perhaps you could throw in a company house or car or something as well.

Don't think i'll get any employment offers soon but it's worth a try.

Thanks From

Darcy

Bill Gates' House. BillG@Microsoft.Com

I got a reply from Bill Gates email BillG@Microsoft.Com. I wrote asking if I could have a copy of Windows Vista for my 30th Birthday which was on 11th May 2008. (Bye Bye 20's). The reply was from the Bill and Melinda foundation and basically said they don't give out charitable donations to individuals.

So... the address is live. But the chances of making money by begging like I am are almost impossible. You would have to have a good story I guess. I'll just post here to Mr Gates now. Mr Gates if your listening can I please have 2 million dollars US please. Click the link above and send an email to Mr Gates if you want.


Bill Gates' House, currently valued at $136 Million US dollars.














Bill Gates' house
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bill Gates' house as seen from Lake Washington.
Bill Gates' house is a large earth-sheltered mansion in the side of a hill overlooking Lake Washington in Medina, Washington. The house is noted for its design and the technology it incorporates. It is nicknamed Xanadu 2.0

General
The house is a modern design in the Pacific lodge style, with classic features such as a large private library and a big dome-shaped room. The house occupies 50,000 square feet (4,600 m²) on a 5.15 acre (2.1 ha) lot. Garage space and outbuildings may occupy an additional 16,000 square feet (1,500 m²). Property records indicate eight bedrooms, 25 baths, and four building levels. According to King County public records, as of 2005, the total assessed value of the property (land and house) is $136,617,000 and the annual property tax for 2006 is $1,012,321. The address of the mansion is 1835 73rd Ave NE, Medina, WA 98039.
The lot was purchased in December 1988 for $2 million, and construction occurred over a period of seven and a half years with nominal completion in 1995. The house is located on the east end of the lot, which is located on a hill.
Gates often entertains the rich and powerful at his home. Once, when Bill Gates had a private party for the National Governors Association at the house, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced a "temporary security zone" around Gates' Lake Washington home which locked down all of Lake Washington south of the Highway 520 bridge and stayed in effect for two days.

Features
A 17 × 60 foot (5.1 × 18.2 meter) swimming pool.
An underwater music system and a fossil-motif floor. There is also a glass wall which can be divided.
A locker room off the pool has four showers and two baths.

Construction
The number of building permits needed completely overwhelmed the Medina city clerk's office, necessitating the purchase of a computer-based document management system.
The house was designed by James Cutler of James Cutler Architects and the architectural firm Bohlin Cywinski Jackson.
