  • A Diachronic Study of Unparliamentary Language in the New Zealand Parliament, 1890-1950
    WITHDRAW AND APOLOGISE: A DIACHRONIC STUDY OF UNPARLIAMENTARY LANGUAGE IN THE NEW ZEALAND PARLIAMENT, 1890-1950 BY RUTH GRAHAM A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Linguistics Victoria University of Wellington 2016 ii “Parliament, after all, is not a Sunday school; it is a talking-shop; a place of debate”. (Barnard, 1943) iii Abstract This study presents a diachronic analysis of the language ruled to be unparliamentary in the New Zealand Parliament from 1890 to 1950. While unparliamentary language is sometimes referred to as ‘parliamentary insults’ (Ilie, 2001), this study has a wider definition: the language used in a legislative chamber is unparliamentary when it is ruled or signalled by the Speaker as out of order or likely to cause disorder. The user is required to articulate a statement of withdrawal and apology or risk further censure. The analysis uses the Communities of Practice theoretical framework, developed by Wenger (1998) and enhanced with linguistic impoliteness, as defined by Mills (2005) in order to contextualise the use of unparliamentary language within a highly regulated institutional setting. The study identifies and categorises the lexis of unparliamentary language, including a focus on examples that use New Zealand English or te reo Māori. Approximately 2600 examples of unparliamentary language, along with bibliographic, lexical, descriptive and contextual information, were entered into a custom designed relational database. The examples were categorised into three: ‘core concepts’, ‘personal reflections’ and the ‘political environment’, with a number of sub-categories. This revealed a previously unknown category of ‘situation dependent’ unparliamentary language and a creative use of ‘animal reflections’.

  • Opel Speedster – the Essence of Dynamic Driving
    July 31, 2000 Opel Speedster – The Essence of Dynamic Driving • Sporty, mid-engined two-seater demonstrates exemplary road-holding • Lightweight design is the basis for excellent performance • New-generation, aluminum, 2.2-Liter ECOTEC engine with 147 hp meets Euro 4 Rüsselsheim. Offering purists uncompromising driving excitement, the new Speedster is an Opel pioneer in several respects. The two-seater is the brand´s first mid-engined sports car and the first Opel to use aluminum and composite materials for the chassis and body. The Speedster is built for driving enthusiasts who will consciously forego creature comforts for the sake of an uncompromised sports car experience. It covers the sprint from zero to 100 km/h in only 5.9 seconds, reaches a top speed of 220 km/h and demonstrates exemplary agility and road-holding on winding roads. The philosophy behind the Speedster can best be described with the words, “minimal weight, high efficiency, maximum enjoyment”. Intelligent, lightweight design comple- ments a highly efficient new engine to give the Speedster its impressive performance. The aluminum, 2.2-liter, four-cylinder ECOTEC engine, which also powers the Astra Coupé, has 108 kW/147 hp, consumes 8.2 liters of premium fuel (MVEG norm) and already meets the Euro 4 emissions standard. “The Speedster is not just another roadster,” says Hans Demant, Executive Director of Opel´s International Technical Development Center. “Our first priority with the Speed- ster has always been driving dynamics. The extremely low weight of 870 kilograms, a low center of gravity, the concentration of mass at the center of the vehicle, the racing suspension, the brakes and the unassisted steering, make it an absolute dream to drive on winding roads.” The Speedster´s looks are as striking as its performance.

Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.

  • THE 2-LITRE SWALLOW DORETTI a Smart, Nicely-Finished, Lively 2-Seater with the Well-Established Two-Carburetter Standard Vanguard Engine
    MOTOR SPORT NOVEMBER, 1954 " MOTOR SPORT" TESTS- THE 2-LITRE SWALLOW DORETTI A Smart, Nicely-Finished, Lively 2-seater with the Well-Established Two-Carburetter Standard Vanguard Engine in this country is 90 m.p.h., while the provision of an electrically- selected overdrive top gear of 3.03 to 1, as compared to the normal top gear ratio of 3.7 to 1, while contributing nothing to maximum speed, does endow the Doretti with very effortless running qualities and a fuel consumption which can be as modest as 28 n1.p.g. The lines of the car draw admiring glances and closer inspection reveals a high standard of appointment and detail finish. The interior is luxuriously upholstered and carpeted, with padding on doors and scuttle secured by imitation Osca-lacing. The dashboard is covered with leather which matches the upholstery and the wool- lined, easy-to-erect hood with its big plastic rear window, rigid Perspex sidescreens with hinged signalling flaps, and provision of a well made, full-width tonneau cover are complementary to the car's air of quality and good breeding. Self-caucelliug winking indicators, a Smith's 2 kw. heater (with screen ducts) as standard, and pro- vision for a radio are other notable " roadster " features. The bucket seats grip their occupants firmly, and the slightly curved, full-width windscreen efficiently deflects air from the interior of the car. The instrument panel, too, is in quiet good taste, with indicator lights only for ignition-discharge, indicators-working and full- headlamps beam, neat dials of uniform size keeping the driver informed as to water temperature (normally 140 deg.
