I think that this may have been carefully worded so that the players may play again. Although it is basically the same to us, they have been "banned" for twelve months, not given a "suspension" for a number of weeks.

I had this problem too, twice. After the second time the dealer replaced the spring clamp with worm drive ones, and also replaced the radiator cap. The dealers theory was that the cap was faulty and wasn't releasing the pressure into the overflow tank. It has been good for 8 months now.

I used one of these on my ute. Reception is a little worse than the original, but I do live in a rural area. Holden VE SS SV6 SSV HSV Maloo Stubby Antenna Aerial | eBay

I went to the speedway in Carrick, Tasmania, on the weekend. During the playing of the National Anthem, less than half of the people stood up, many of those sitting continued to talk or do whatever it was they were doing. I could be wrong, but I don't think many of them were Muslim. To me...

Yep. Here is the information on the campsites for this year. From memory, it is similar for each year (timings, etc). V8 Supercars Camping - Camping FAQ's 2015

That will teach me to read the post properly!! I plan to go next year too. I've already booked in my holidays, so good to go with getting time off. We will end up camping somewhere on site (start at the beginning of the waiting list again).

You might have trouble getting accommodation in Bathurst this close to the event. When we went we camped at the site (once outside Hell Corner, and once in the Paddock). As for places to watch the race, I have only been a couple of times, but I spread myself around the track (except at the top...

Hopefully a team other than the All Blacks can win (although I think that they will win). That is not because I dislike the All Blacks, far from it. I just want to see an even competition. The French played well in the last RWC and will be a dark horse. I think the first match is England vs...

Still MEL-BWN-DXB-LHR according to their website. They may not have updated it though. Just checked again. BI97 is BWN-DXB-LHR. So still three legs (two stops).

I've flown with RB, but just to Brunei and not all the way to LHR, and it was economy. For $5k I assume that you are flying Business Class. Good aircraft, great staff and good legroom (1 extra inch of pitch from memory in economy). The service was good, but no alcohol served on board. The...

Fair points, Reaper. However, I don't have to look over his or her shoulder, as I have a fair idea of what they are getting paid. So no jealousy within the company. We still get the bitch and moaners in our industry, even though the majority in my company get paid a decent salary. However...

Generally I agree with what I take home is my own personal business. What I am trying to say is that you know that the person you are next to is getting paid for what they do, not for how good a negotiator they are. The EBA lists what qualifications earn what bonuses and what the base salary...

While not in a unionised industry, I am a member of a Union (Federation). This was a big change in my way of thinking, as I had spent the first 24 years of my working life as being anti union. I joined as I saw what they did and can do for me. They are the point of contact for negotiating...

You do realise that by not voting you are supporting the status quo.

The real question is that with the different political parties apparent different views and philosophies on education, why don't we see different results in education standards between parties when they are in power? One thing I did like the Gillard Government for was that it tried to...

Thanks for your input. I usually leave the car for over two weeks with no problems, so I was just wondering why it drained totally in just a week. It is a later model S2, so I believe that the drain issue that occurred on the earlier VEs was fixed on this one. As I said, it did have a...

My car is a VE Series 2 SSV Ute. I went away for a week and left the car in the garage. When I came back the battery was totally dead. I opened the door with the key, not even a click in the ignition when I turned the key to try to start it. I was able to jump start the car, but the "check...

Not true. It applies to objects too. Entry, access and privacy | Neighbours and the law Trespassers Entry onto land Any other states that you want me to quote?

The Greeks aren't alone in bailouts. Remember this one? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Troubled_Asset_Relief_Program $700B!! And the bankers still got their bonuses!

Abraham Lincoln said that, didn't he?

Don't confuse viral infections with bacterial infections. Antibiotics are used to fight bacterial infections, they are next to useless against viruses. A doctor will generally only prescribe antibiotics for a virus to prevent secondary infection. However, I believe that we are too willing to...

What was disappointing about the Adam Goodes "ape" saga was that it occurred on the first game of the Indigenous Round of the AFL. Goodes stated that he heard the slur, pointed to where it came from, and then realised it was a young girl. He did offer his support to the girl after the game...

A two edged sword, Raj. I wonder how many deaths the Chinese have on their worksites as well? Unions can be good to ensure that a workplace is safe, everybody has the right to go home at the end of the day. However, unions should not hold companies or industries to ransom just because...

Up here in the Kimberley the locals call welfare for the indigenous people "sitting money". They get paid for sitting around. Saying that, the communities on Cape Leveque that I have dealt with are quite good. They work in the tourism industry in their communities, showing tourists local...

We didn't miss the Foo Fighters. The missus wasn't too happy about the four hours of driving to pick us up, take us to the concert, go home, come back to pick us up and then head home again. Great concert with a crowd of only 7,000. I saw them before in Melbourne in 2011, both shows were...

It did it again!! I was in traffic on the way to the Foo Fighters concert and the chime went, and the temp was on its way to the top. Pulled over and called the dealer and roadside assist. The dealer told me that the roadside assist will top it up and I should be right to go. I told them...

Intelligent too, filming it while abusing the policeman. Mental giants!!

Does it specifically say that you must get the servicing done by them? From reading that line it suggests that you only have to get the car serviced regularly (i.e. in accordance with the manufacturer's handbook). With new cars you can take them anywhere, as long as it is a registered service...

Thanks buster81, invaluable information. I might look elsewhere then.

Capital punishment is the perfect punishment for a perfect justice system. Unfortunately, no justice system is perfect. That being said, I have no sympathy for the two currently awaiting execution in Indonesia. We want visitors to Australia to obey our rules when visiting here, so we should...

That is one great looking car! I'd keep something like that too!!

If it is a humid day and the aircon cools the air in the car to below the dew point, then cloud will form. Shouldn't be anything to worry about.

Thanks everybody for your input. I heard from the dealer late yesterday, they have said that there was no damage done to the engine. They are replacing the hose and clamps, conducting a pressure test and flushing the system. Hopefully I can pick it up today.

I got home from my swing today, got in the ute to drive home all happy. I just got through Hobart and heading up the Southern Outlet (for those that know Hobart) when the "High Engine Temp" chime and warning came up. I looked at the temp gauge and the needle was standing vertically. Funny...

Thanks everybody. I really like those chrome indicator bulbs. Much better than the "fried egg" look. Do you think that they would look good with the LED tail lights, or stay with the original lights?

Power divided by weight gives the power to weight ration per kg, then times by 1000 to get power per tonne. So it is 124 kw/tonne.

There is only one CAT III ILS in Australia at the moment, that is in Melbourne (Runway 16). As you mentioned, the aircraft has to be capable of doing it, and the pilots rated in using it. BTW, ground based navigation aids are slowly being phased out in Australia (and the rest of the world)...

Thanks for that information, pnlimo. Some of the eBay listings for the indicator LED lights state that they are plug-in, with no modifications needed. Is this not actually the case? 36 LED Amber Orange PY21 BAU15S LED Turn Blinker Indicator Bulbs VT VX VY VZ VE | eBay

One of my tail lights has a crack in it, and instead of just replacing it, I was thinking of replacing both with LED tail lights. Where are the best places to get them from? I've searched here and I'm aware that some members on here sell them. Does anybody have any experience with these? Are...
