“You can do this. If you want to go out in the world, people are so open to what New Zealand culture brings, so interested and engaged with the way we present and see the world, they see us as a very holistic beautiful country. I'd say get out there now.”

“I come from a deliberate feminine sensibility," Jessica Hobbs says.

In July 2020, Kiwibank announced a policy that rules out any future lending or investment in fossil fuels. This makes them the first bank in New Zealand to commit to being Fossil Free, and the first bank in the world that has committed to withhold banking services from coal, oil and gas companies – they won’t even take fossil fuel companies on as customers!

great foresight, ended by red-baiting, fear of communism

It’s odd to think that the gray-faced, gray-suited U.S. Cold Warriors of the 1950s funded Abstract Expressionism and left-wing literary magazines in a cultural offensive against the Soviet Union. And yet they did.

To this day, neither LaMarr nor her estate have seen a cent from the multi-billion-dollar industry her idea paved the way for, even though the U.S. military has publicly acknowledged her frequency-hopping patent and contribution to technology.

The patent Lamarr filed aimed to protect her 1941 invention for radio communications to ‘hop’ from one frequency to another so that Allied torpedoes couldn’t be detected by the N***s. The technology became a precursor to secure wi-fi, GPS and Bluetooth used by billions of people around the wor...

Short film competition for kids

Here's a fun way to get kids using their devices for something truly productive during lockdown. Miss Conception Films (a partnership between Ainsley Gardiner and Georgina Conder) is running a short film competition for kids and teenagers up to the age of 16. Kids need to make their own short film that speaks to the theme of 'Finding our way home', using the available devices in their bubble. The stories should demonstrate why people's homes and families are so important to them, and can be documentary, fiction or something in between. Submissions close Friday 8 May, 2020. An easy set of step-by-step guidelines will be available on the Miss Conception Films website. Industry pros will be offering their advice and answering questions via short videos on the Miss Conception Films page and via short Facebook Live events.
Here are some guidelines:

- There are three age categories: under 10 years, under 13-year-olds and 16 years and under. The age of the director will determine which group the film falls under.
- Films can be any genre, and up to 10 minutes long.
- Film delivery formats: Flash video, MPEG, MP4, QuickTime, WMV (Windows media video).
- Guardian signature required with all final submissions.
- The films can be in English and Te Reo Māori.
- Films with swear words, nudity or unnecessary violence won't be published.
- An overall winner will be selected from each age range on 10th May.
Stay tuned for information on prizes!
