Rarotonga:
The blue lagoon reflects your memory.
Your salty fresh pure air,
captures the spirit and holds the heart.
Your starring 15 isles are scattered as fragrant frangipane petals
floating halfway between New Zealand and Hawaii.
Sara de Janeiro speaks of your rare beauty,
of your welcoming people with the widest white smiles.
She tweets David Thoreau from your Isles,
“Wealth is the ability to fully experience life,” en route
to Island time Zumba class.
I write of rain-jewelled Te Ariki from Aotearoa.
His Scottish-Raro verse my treasure chest of words.
A rare glare of divinity from lip and broad brow ebbing.
"Sea high on the rocks, the gulls flung from the sea, the dark wooded hills,
Bees and trees filled with wild honey and, sweet as incense-clouds,
Swarming with mist, and mist low on the sea."
Watching the boats go by, we are "standing or crouching,
our backs to the sea."
I ate avocados so much in California with corn chips and the most delicious salsa recipes ever, I swear I was an honorary martian of avoca-enhanced-health at one point.
Avocado’s nutritional benefits are green sunshine in a deep purple shell. Back here in the paradise Isles of New Zealand, Kiwi chefs latest offering is: The Art of Making Avocado Taste Like Tuna.–ScoopIt. Eugene Hamilton of Euro’s latest creationz kinda rock!

HealthTip: Apparently, the Guinness Book of World Records states an avocado is the most nutritionally complete fruit in the world. Avocado is all about good fats to help keep the heart healthy. Avocados are chocca with essential vitamins and minerals like iron, folate and vitamin C.
In adventurous water navigator peoples news of New Zealand, Te Karere News reports:
Two double-hulled canoes will depart for Rapanui this week, on a 10-week voyage using traditional navigation techniques. Raiha Johns caught up with some of the 24-strong crew as they prepare for the journey their ancestors made a thousand years ago on the same ocean waters.
Tumeke adventurous and sporty to boot!

A poem for our athlete teamwork-thinking tribes of New Zealand:
To you my love is a pendant
Of inanga greenstone,
Too hard to bite,
Cut from a boulder underground.
You can put it in a box
Or wear it over your heart.
One day it will grow warm...
- - -
Yet see the red-gold cirrus
over snow-mountain shine
upon the upland road,
ride easy stranger,
Surrender to the sky
your heart of [Aroha].
Together. Everyone. Achieves. More.James K. Baxter poetry, Jerusalem poet, Pakeha, a cross-cultural, founding literary father of Aotearoa New Zealand. When he wrote, he was a man who was proud of his Polynesian, Pakeha and global kids. All Kiwi winners!

Because science, innovation, education are New Zealand peoples spirit - of our strong outrigger canoe culture of navigatable adventurous and creative discoveries into new horizons of destiny and change too:
In investing R&D capital into our future innovative inventors of sustainability and peace news:
In my mind I see, children all throughout the South Pacific, even up to the Marshall Islands into even the island of Guam, maybe Vietnam too. They each have a laptop and tablet each. On the internet they are taught curriculum subjects from New Zealand.
Their learning is accelerated and a generation of Polynesian (and Asian?) children arise, supported by their New Zealand friends nearby and afar, to allow the potential of Polynesia’s youth to be all they will be, for the gifts in their lives the world will need to be stronger, smarter, more creative – in the years to come. If we all do this for them that’s so going to happen.
This is the burden that sits very strongly on me today. I really want to see our groovy and unique white, Pakeha New Zealanders do it, just to teach the world what cool New Zealand citizens look like as architects of the world – and to push back the powers of greed, on our Island dwelling Polynesian friends.
Although we admire the braun of Polynesian peoples natural dna (Jonah Lomu storms to mind) - it is their Peaceful spirit (most days), their respect for their elderly, their creativity so rich yet largely untapped, their spiritual gifts, the notable and noble warmth of heart, a trusting innocence in the good of the wider world and their unique thoughts that dwell within their minds; that we will need to see more of in the world, twenty years out from this point. We need to invest more in it.
Kiwi celebrity, broadcaster and all round good guy, Scotty Morrison, hit Whangarei City this week to report live from the Kapa Haka Nationals for high school Kiwi kids.
The Te Karere News Teams live-cross reporting was dynamic, colorful, vibrant, authentic and lively culture of New Zealand on show.
Our young people really are on another level of absolutely amazing discipline in New Zealand when you watch them perform in kapa haka. So underrated, yet they know how absolutely manawatu mauri amazing they are. The awareness is written in the blueprint of their DNA. It is often ignited through the art of the Kiwi artform of haka and kapa haka (the wider performing arts genre of Maori culture’s distinctive form and expression).
- – -
An earlier story that Scotty had covered off prior in Maori news, featured one of our Kiwi Kaumatua (an elder of New Zealand) Amster Reedy who spoke of the opening of Kiwi House in London. Right on! :)
About this humble and calmly confident man: Born in 1943 Amster’s real name is New Amsterdam Reedy – he and his 17 siblings were all named after places in WWII or people from their iwi that fought in it. (Fancy that?!). That sense of history and respect for his ancestors has seen Amster forge a varied and successful career as a Maori Tikanga consultant. (more…)
This just in via Sarah Daniell‘s scribery: “Christchurch film-maker Peter Young has made a big-screen documentary about tooth fish exploitation in the Ross Sea. It explores why it will be disastrous for the world’s ecology but also for New Zealand’s reputation as a clean, green country. His six-year project – The Last Ocean- screens at the NZ 2012 International Film Festival.
They’re catching tooth fish and sending them to restaurants in Europe and the US so rich folks can eat them.
Yeah, and that’s not all they’re doing! … read more here.
Clearly, the message is: Get off our Ross Sea fish, otherwise we’ll have to unleash our secret stash of drones on you and teach you to walk through the shop door. That would be pricey fish! :)
The Last Ocean as a film has been six years in the works. Nice one!
So… In iSpy an Ozzie crush on New Zealand’s Olympics hockey team’s hotness news:
Sport MSN reports: “Black Sticks coach Mark Hager has scoffed at claims that New Zealand have been engaging in espionage ahead of their first round Olympic women’s hockey match against Australia.
Brisbane’s Courier-Mail reported on Saturday that the Hockeyroos had suspected the Kiwis of spying on them during a training session in London last week after spotting a film crew in the stands at the Riverbank Arena at Olympic Park. (more…)
She had been diagnosed with cancer in April this year.
Mahy had written more than 200 books and poems and won many prestigious children’s book awards, including the Carnegie Medal and the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Award.
Last year she won the New Zealand Post Children’s Book of the Year award for The Moon & Farmer McPhee with Dunedin illustrator David Elliot.
Award-winning author and literary professor Bill Manhire said the arts community would mourn Mahy’s passing for some time.
“I think she was loved at the same level that Sir Edmund Hillary was. She’s right up there as one of the great icons of New Zealand.”
Literary blogger Graham Beattie tonight called her one of New Zealand’s greatest-ever writers.
“I put her up there with Katherine Mansfield,” he said.
A long-time resident of Governor’s Bay, Mahy won international acclaim for her first book in 1969 A Lion in the Meadow.
Today, one nation is very proud of our lady athletes:
The Magic made world history today being the local Kiwi Club to win a final against the Aussie’s Vixens.
TVNZ reporter Steve Marshall described the match as a total “nailbiter.”
“The Waikato-Bay of Plenty Magic have made history by being the first New Zealand netball side to claim the ANZ Championship with their stunning come-back 41-38 win over the Vixens in Melbourne today.
After five long years the perennial finalists, competing in their third final, roared home as netball fans across the country embraced the moment.
A jubilant Irene van Dyk described the win as “absoloutely amazing”, the 40-year-old tutor having battled through a difficult week after losing her mother to a long battle with cancer shortly before last week’s preliminary final win oner the Northern Mystics.”

Superannuation was a hot topic today as well as youth home ownership for first time home owners. PM John Key spoke well on TV live from the National Party convention centre.
In a $50 million earning bracket himself, I was more listening for whether he is in touch with the real needs of majorities of Kiwis. He was more sobre-minded when speaking to cam. Superannuation, needs to and will be addressed.
As yet the urgency has not entirely hit the PM yet, due to his own personal fortunate circumstances acting as a buffer perhaps, though it sounds like he’s working on it with his cabinet too. New Zealand is ageing prematurely, meaning grey power have a lot of say and our population is ageing and also older immigrants love the safe haven nature of NZ too. Is there enough oxygen in the air for youth and young adult culture to have a platform enhancing the future good life of our esteemed grey power set of cool Kiwis? Youth can’t afford to listen all the time to grey power. Yet grey power if they turn and face youth, have the keys to draw out the dream NZ needs for youth and grey power to be secure and have more fun. So, a little investment from grey power into the young, could quite possibly cause young people’s innovative gifts to rise now to the fore. It’s time.
Where are those forums, that can feed back into strategic angel investor pools as well as the MPI hub of business in the near future? Let’s get it fast tracking. It’s exciting.
Immigration: Immigrants have accelerated rapidly in NZ. Critics say Maori are resistant to immigrants. I found the statement kind of insulting as a Maori-Kiwi, simply because Maori have welcomed more cultures into New Zealand than many other people, so Maori have the longest standing immigration manaaki record in NZ history. If Maori show signs of immigrant fatigue, it’s only due to our no.1 partner (The Crown) deliberating playing Maori off against a plethora of immigrants, perhaps creating a feeding frenzy upon Maori by all in unjust ways. Get back into the pitt and negotiate properly, is what politics should be doing concerning Maori and The Crown right now. Courts should be doing the same. The foundations and getting them right will save a lot of money and heartache, if we take the time now to be considerate and get this right.
What causes resistance could perhaps be economic structuring. An idea, or suggestion: What is needed is something like an Iwi-Kiwi bank for Maori NZ citizens and friends. What is also needed is % quota shares of oil, water, NZ resources sales (similar to the fish case in the Supreme Court) that goes into the Iwi-Kiwi banking structure and is administered to tribes. The money is not for ‘living.’ It is more for development purposes. This would sure up a fast track stream of development for Maori to grow the wider NZ economy quicker. All Kiwis would benefit. Also, people like Mark Solomon, Tainui and Sir Ralph Norris have the business skills to spin out this money for maximum return – if they wanted to get involved.
If Indian immigrants did the same (own their own NZ owned bank etc). If Asian-Kiwis did the same too, then the government’s job would be a key joy. In the US, people develop without government so much. In NZ, government is extremely strong. At times heavy. So a balance between both of these styles of biz governance could perhaps benefit NZ by freeing up the economy more. Then government could more concentrate on the success stories, (throwing more parties in a culture of success celebration achievement), within the four sectors of biz growth and cross-polinate these models (eg: MPI etc) with strategic meetings that would then work more like an economic science of growth, based on what’s actually working being highlighted and replicated and perfected in new ways, thus streamlining the growth process. (Gosh, what a bad structured sentence!).
It’s exciting no matter what way you look at it though.
Young People: Democracy is always built on young energy. If we deplete it, we are stripping the country’s best interests. When we age we can tend to get selfish (although some of the most youthful Kiwis in heart are elderly people – it’s about attitude of being youthfully accepting). We we can lose our peripheral vision as we move into our ‘contentment’ phase of life.
Prof. Paul Spoonley noted with Jessica Mutch the alarming (or just global times realities) statistic of 150,000 young New Zealanders leaving the country since 2008 (the global financial crises years). (more…)
At Olympics time in New Zealand, in the land that was the first to give women the vote in the world, we like to make a big fuss of our women athletes. It is a Kiwi tradition to do so.
TV One’s sports coverage today, took the time to interview some of the greats for their sports coaching advice contributing to our high performance athletes winning efforts this Olympic Games, London 2012.
From netball’s high court these words are said:
“We played together as a group of players that matured together as people. We have memories of night life on Courtney Place. Your role, can you do it? Or does it need to be done by another? A good coach was as a player, hardworking, creative, good readers of the game. This reflects who they are as people. It’s also how they coach. Such people who competed together then coach opposing teams are always like long lost buddies.”–Words: Waimarama Te Maunu, Noeline Taurua and Debbie Fuller -paraphrased.
From New Zealand’s first Olympics medal winner of sports fame, Yvette Corlett comes the thoughts: “Relax and don’t get too uptight about the event.”
New Zealand has recently won the bid to host the World’s Iron Man competition. Maori Iron Man athlete and real life Dr. Ropata, Lance O’Sullivan talks health in New Zealand’s north and jetting across to Rarotonga to keep an eye on the South Pacific’s hula culture peoples.
- – -
Te Karere News reports: Northland doctor takes stand against rheumatic fever: What’s ahead for Northland doctor Lance O’Sullivan? Last month, he resigned from Te Hauora o Te Hiku o Te Ika health provider. The greed and inequality activist in the health sector is known for being outspoken about poverty and poor housing. Sullivan gives an interview from his home in Kataia.
Take a nohi above.
Scotty Morrison feeds the ball to Anzac Pikia‘s reporting. Ngati Pourou, Te Arawa and Ngai Tahu could do with a ’jetting to Hawaii’ story about now, to work on their tans. :)

So, international singer, Hinewehi Mohi of Oceania sweetnesshits up the Kapa Haka Super 12. Twelve teams, twelve performers per team and twelve minutes on the stage. Sounds like a Hobbit film set just set to high energy, kapa haka action. Watch above.

We also need to renovate river banks, build affordable housing and vineyards for first time home owners, and make sure that Auckland City development allows first time home buying Kiwis to even get a look in. Maybe “Kapa Kainga” could help bring the spirit of haka more into the sphere of building, architectural design and city planning development for Maori and all Kiwis who are struggling to own first homes, in the future. There’s also all of the Kiwis in Aussie, buying homes back in NZ too. Heaps of first homes in the North are bought that way in Maori communities with Aussie family buying in NZ for family here.
Obviously, North of Auckland and South of Auckland could do with some new cities developments if NZ’s population is to branch out as home-owners more.
Congratulations to the teams this year competing in the kapa haka.

In football show me the tala and the yen-respect news: One of Asia-Pacific’s leading entertainers is believed by journalists to be jetting to the land of kimono surf in a new inked deal.
“Sonny Bill Williams will tomorrow confirm he is to become the highest-paid footballer in Australia and New Zealand, leading Australian sources say.
The Sunday Telegraph says in its Sydney editions today that SBW will announce what the Herald on Sunday predicted last week: a deal for a stint in Japanese rugby followed by a year in the National Rugby League with the Sydney Roosters.
It says Williams has stitched up a deal that will earn him $2 million for the year, $800,000 of that coming from a 10-match deal with the Japanese rugby union team Panasonic. Confirmation will come at an Auckland press conference, it says.
The paper says Williams is honouring a handshake deal made with the Roosters, which started over a cup of coffee in Circular Quay involving the boss of Channel Nine, Williams’ agent and SBW himself.
The agreement will end a five-season NRL exile sparked when Williams walked out on the Bulldogs.”
ENDS
The news of Sonny Bill’s talent taking the Sir John Kirwan route, as a sports entity with a potential stint in Japan, prompted sports commentator Paul Lewis to write, “too much player power; too much dallying with the dollars.” That’s a lot of fishy sushi dollar for the next year for Sonny Bill. Japan must need more New Zealand ika too, so that’s good. Congratulations. :)
We tend to look after our guests a bit better than Shane Cameron does in New Zealand.
However on blogs, not so much. Or in boxing fights too. Tonight Cameron was in knock out form. Liam Napierwrites: “Two bottles of champagne were whisked into Shane Cameron’s dressing room after he stunned Monte Barrett with a thundering fourth-round knockout to rejuvenate his heavyweight career in Auckland.
With a huge overhand right hook just 18 seconds into the fourth round, Cameron reclaimed the WBO Asia Pacific and Oriental belts in devastating fashion to shock most predictions
“Shane was prepared for the fight. He fought a good fight and my hat goes off to him and his team,” Barrett said after recovering from the brutal punch. It was one of those shots that you don’t see coming.”
Jaime Ridge won over Rosie Arkle, Daniel MacKinnon boxed a win over Faimasasa Tavui and cricketer Jesse Ryder whopped journo, Mark Watson. Belt up at the hefty hooks for the action.
I wonder if Barrett will make a hip hop record next.

Freedom of expression in community is when the spirit rises within, manifested in unision of teamwork. It is what New Zealand is good at, both on the sports field, in business and especially in the disciplined art of Kapa Haka (Maori cultural performance art theater).
In Hawaii, they love it. Here, we do too. :)
It’s about our words filling the atmos in a spiritual way embedded in the Maori language, that protects and stengthens New Zealand.
Enjoy!
