I know we've done pet peeves before but let's take a new angle...
Have you discovered any new pet peeves since becoming a mother?
I know we've done pet peeves before but let's take a new angle...
Have you discovered any new pet peeves since becoming a mother?
That DH can never seem to throw dirty diapers away. I come home from work and find a diaper on her dresser or sitting on the bathroom counter...really? How hard is it to throw the thing away?
I'm getting really annoyed by people thinking that DS can't walk just because I baby wear him when at the store. I've gotten comments behind my back a few times recently. I want to scream at them that the reason I wear is because he walks so well.
My husband tries to get out of changing a diaper by telling me how many diapers he's changed that week. As if the number 5 will be impressive to me. :roll:
This is more of a vent than a pet peeve but DH's mom called this weekend and said the only thing she wanted for Mother's Day was a card from Jordan. What? I thought I was Jordan's mother.
This is sort of general but when you are pregnant or a mother, it's like people feel there are no boundaries as to what they can ask you or what advice they give you. I haven't had too many experiences with people crossing the line but I've been shocked to hear what some other mother's have had to deal with.
My other big one is reckless drivers. I am trying to keep my family safe and people are driving like complete idiots all around me. If I could avoid them, I would. Unfortunately, there are not separate roads for the people who don't care if they die behind the wheel.
Hmmm, my kid has been driving me crazy lately, does that count? When I'm reprimanding her for something she gets this little smirk on her face and it makes me understand why people choose to spank (I don't, for the record)...it is SO infuriating. She has been so naughty lately. Three and a half is for the birds.
Joy, that is what Jordan does to me now. She will not only smile, but laugh. I try to convey how serious I am but she just continues to find it funny. When people say three is harder than two, it worries me.
Kayla, Daphne did it before too, but now she's just so sneaky and defiant that it irks me even more. It's like she does it because she knows it makes me crazy. I'm counting down to 4. It's supposed to get better then, right?
I'll let you know if 4 is better...it best be or Alicia might not make 5
My biggest pet peeve since becoming a mother is MIL and Alicia's hair. Whatever I do with it, she feels she has to re-do. She came to brunch on Sunday. I had combed Alicia's hair and she said she didn't want it up. Fine. When MIL came in, she immediately when to Alicia's room and then started on, where's the comb, where are the barettes, the elastics etc. She finally lets up when Alicia has this massive up-do done. Sigh. Drives me insane. I finally cut DJ's hair because so many people commented on his crazy curls. I loved them. He's still cute, but sigh, I miss the crazy curls.
Joy- I totally wrote my biggest pet peever was my kids, but then erased it because I didn't want it to come off wrong. Glad you would have understood. I agree, I can totally see how people can be quick to spank. I don't use corporal punishment either, but man! There are there times where the kids drive me right to the edge.
As far as other people, now that I'm a parent, I notice all the unsafe things people do with their kids that just shock me. The thing that gets me the most is when I see people smoking with their small child in the car. Selfish bastards!!
Let's see....
When I ask my DH for help with the twins and he comes upstairs moves them to a location (like their bedroom) and goes back downstairs. Umm...when I said I needed help, I meant can you clothe/diaper/read a book to one of them? Seriously??? I just make the girls start yelling down the stairs to him. Bwahaha...then he has to trudge back up.
Don't get me started on people smoking in their cars wtih small children riding with them... It infuriaties me.
As for age 3, I cannot really remember much, other than I felt (and still feel) that parenting kept getting better and better. I still miss Isaiah's adorable innocence from ages 2-4, but I love the other things I can do with him now. My girls are super cute, but they are also super hard. I have been working really hard on using some different techniques with them because it is very different managing two at once. Sarafina has a knack for coloring on the walls when I am not looking. She makes sure I am busy with Keira too. Sneaky, sneaky. Sometimes, I don't notice it for days because she colors really light and makes really small circles. Just the other day, I went to get something from a cupboard and notices some red circles on it. Really? I would take the darn crayons away, except I need them to keep the girls busy while I make dinner at night. If you came to my house at dinnertime, you would think I owned a zoo. Wow!
Okay, today I'll be jumping on the bandwagon of my child being my pet peeve. I don't think there is a single battle we haven't fought today. She has resisted every diaper change (meaning running away and hiding), refused to leave the dog alone, kicked at me while I'm trying to get her dressed or change her diaper, says she is done eating but cries when I take the food away (repeat 3 times) and fought our nap routine every step of the way. I hate days like this. It makes me question how I'm handling everything and I just want to get away for some "me time", which is basically impossible. I wish I had someone on stand by on days like this. Having my mom near by would be great on days like today.
Kayla- being able to drink would be great for days like this too. I hope bedtime comes early for you. Hang in there!

THIS. Though my big one isn't smoking in the car but car seats. Like the wife around the corner who insisted that it was best to turn her 10 month old to forward facing because he was practically 1 and 20 lbs which is when you're required to turn them around. WTF. :roll:

Uhhh...yeah, that would be my day yesterday and today. I miss wine times like these. Greatly.

D100 strange behavior
I'm experienced my D100 buffer became half. We know that the RAW buffer is 4 or the JPG buffer is 6. But it already happened to me three times that the buffer is became 2 for RAW or 3 for JPG. I try to format but it doesn't help. I try to take off the battery for a minute, still the same. Finally I reset the custom to default, and the real buffer is back; 4 for RAW. It happened when I'm changing lens and the other times when I'm changing microdrive.
Every time it happened I just reset the custom setting, and have to adjust my custom setting again.
Do I have to take it to service center? The camera is 1 months old.
Pinky Mirror
it's near Bali, if you don't know where it is

if you have the long exposure noise reduction on it will change the buffer totals to exactly what you said they were at. check that in the csm which i think the nr is off on the default settings. i hope that helps.

In this installment, Chris travels to Texas to visit two artists: David Cargill, a Beaumont sculptor who works with bronze and marble, and Charles Stagg, another Beaumont sculptor but in recycled and found materials. Chris takes their portraits and spends time discussing the composition and lighting in each session.
Chris also reviews the photos he took, and discusses the gear he used and the lessons he learned while visiting with and photographing these artists.
Skill Level Appropriate for all
Chris Orwig: So I'd heard a lot about David from Keith and I was really excited to meet him. And instantly I was taken by his kind and thoughtful face. And it quickly became apparent that this is one of those guys that just has so many stories. It would be so fun to sit down with him for an afternoon and talk about art and life and really learn about who he is and about how he approaches life. It'd be wonderful to have a lot of time with him. But in this case, I didn't have a lot of time. I only had about an hour. So one of the things that I knew that I needed to do was to make the connection.
I needed to start to get to know him. So part of that was asking questions. I also knew that I needed to make some photographs. Well, can I take a picture of you here and maybe you can just hold onto that branch? I think that's a good spot. And I'm going to scoop back here a little ways. So in order to create those photographs, I wanted to create a rhythm or a flow that was natural and fluid. Rather than click, click, click, lots of photographs, it was more of like this. I'd ask a question and listen to his response. And I was asking him questions not just for my photographs, not just to make the connection, but really, I was curious.
I wanted to learn from him. And so as I ask questions, I then would step back and make a few frames. Maybe even just put your arms at your side or in your pocket--or one on the tree perhaps. Yeah and that other one just right there. That's great! Again, my intent here was to try to create a rhythm, because one of the things that I knew is that these photographs, these portraits, weren't going to happen quickly. Rather, I needed to give this time. I needed to give it some breathing room, especially with someone who has so much wisdom and who has created so much art over so many years.
I wanted to create a portrait of him that told that story. Rather than a cheap and quick photograph, I wanted something that had some breadth and some depth to it. So again, my approach was simple. It was straightforward. It was conversational. Let's walk over to the camel. I want to here about this one. David Cargill: Well, that's-- Chris Orwig: This is a pretty fine piece. David Cargill: Yeah, well, what I would say to people is you remember where it said Eve David Cargill: stood on a camel to pick the apple? Chris Orwig: Okay.
David Cargill: And have gotten answers like, "I didn't know that," or "I had forgotten that." Chris Orwig: And as we walked, I wanted to learn a little bit about these different pieces. I noticed one sculpture that really caught my eye. It was this camel. There was this character on top of it, holding an apple up above the camel's head, and I took a picture of it. One of the things I find that you almost always want to do when you're photographing people is take pictures of things other than the subject themselves. The reason you do that is to just show that you're visually interested in things, especially if it's someone's art.
And also, for a moment, they're out of the spotlight, so to speak. This is great. I like the camel's smile. So, this is all out of clay. David Cargill: Well, this is bronze. Chris Orwig: Right, but then you-- David Cargill: No, I didn't do it. Chris Orwig: How do you do this? David Cargill: I didn't do it that way. Chris Orwig: These toes are neat too. David Cargill: This piece is like this one and the shell over there and the fish, this piece.
Chris Orwig: Yeah. Okay. David Cargill: I never made a mould for them. David Cargill: I made a core, because I'd always, I did all of the casting myself. That head David Cargill: in there is the first thing I haven't cast myself. Chris Orwig: Okay. Chris Orwig: On top of thinking about connecting with David, I also was thinking about light and exposure and composition. One of the things that I noticed is that David was wearing these great overalls. Those were really fascinating. And then he had this bright white shirt on. You know one of the things that you have to do when someone wears white is decide what are you going to expose for? You're either going to expose for the skin or the shirt.
In other words, sometimes I needed to make the decision to have the image really bright so there'd be no detail in the shirt at all. Other times I lowered my exposure, so there is more density in the frame, so it's more deep and dark and possibly brooding. And so I was thinking about those choices, changing exposure and composition, and then we moved forward and took a few other pictures, and then really, it was a wrap. And you know one of the things that I like to do is to try to keep things authentic and natural.
When you're working with someone who isn't a model, you can't ask them to perform and all of a sudden say okay, here's the moment, take this picture, click, click, click. Rather, by keeping it low key, understated, and simply walking around with a nice natural flow, having good conversation along the way, it makes it a little less painful. And often that leads to creating images which might be a little bit more authentic. Now when you take this approach you have to be on the lookout. You have to be really observing, because as you talk and as you walk, you're looking for those small significant subtle moments, those moments in between.
And if you have your eye focused on those moments and if you can capture them, sometimes you'll be able to capture something really unique and special.

I would countersue.
My guess is that it is just a bluff so they can grab some green before they go.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

For some people, Jeffrey Baldwin is a superhero.
He spent the last years of his life locked in a cold bedroom. He starved to death in 2002.
A coroner's inquest about the case wrapped up Friday, with the jury making more than 100 recommendations to make sure something like this doesn't happen again.
In their final comments, they talked about creating a memorial in Jeffrey's honour.
Todd Boyce is doing just that.
"I want to make sure that Jeffrey is never forgotten," said Boyce. "Just the thought of nobody ever knowing who he was made me really sad."
The father of four from Ottawa says with the help of the community, they're planning a bronze bench and statue of Jeffrey in Greenwood Park, near the home where he spent his final days.
Jeffrey will be cast as a superhero on the bench, an idea that came from Jeffrey's father's testimony at the inquest.
"He talked about how his favourite memory was of Jeffrey was when he was a toddler in his care, jumping around the house in his superman costume."
Waterloo-based artist and sculptor Ruth Abernethy will be beginning the preliminary work this week.
"She has some photos of Jeffrey, she's just analyzing them and then she's going to start the mould."
Once it's done, it will be sent to the foundry, Artcast, where it will be made into bronze.
An online fundraising campaign has already raised more than $36,000. "We received donations from all over the world," said Boyce. "From Japan, Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Spain, all over the place, which is fantastic."
At the time the campaign was started, the goal was $25,000. Boyce says at that time, they were only planning for a statue of Jeffrey.
They've since added the bronze bench for Jeffrey to stand on. Boyce is estimating they'll need around $45,000 to get get it done.
"We're still doing some fundraising," he said.
They will be holding a gala event Mar. 1 at the Sterling Room in the Distillery District.
Boyce says they're planning an unveiling in October.

New Zealand passports (in Māori: Uruwhenua Aotearoa) are issued to New Zealand citizens for the purpose of international travel by the Department of Internal Affairs. New Zealand has a passport possession rate of around 75% of the population[3] and there are around 1.5 million New Zealand biometric passports in circulation.[4]
New Zealand participates in the Five Nations Passport Group, an international forum for cooperation between the passport issuing authorities in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States to "share best practices and discuss innovations related to the development of passport policies, products and practices".[3]

Few countries required passports before the First World War, and they were not then usually required for overseas travel. By 1900 there were occasional requests for New Zealand passports, which were personally signed by the Governor. In 1905 MP George Fowlds decided to return to Scotland for his father's 100th birthday. He decided he needed a passport when his ship was about to leave; an inconvenience both for the department and the Governor who had to sign it. A single passport covered a man and his wife and children, but did not include a photo or any personal details like age, height or eye colour.[5]
In the First World War the British Government required passports in 1915, and New Zealand followed from November 1915, with an increased workload for the department and for police. 1,108 passports had been issued in 1909, but 6,000 were issued in the nine months from 15 November 1915 to 21 August 1916. The number was kept high by civilian travel after the war, over 4,300 in 1921, and the number hovered at that level until the Depression. The number then fell from 4,722 in 1930 to 2,455 for the year ended 31 March 1934.[6]
After the creation of New Zealand citizenship with the passing of the British Nationality and New Zealand Citizenship Act, 1948 (which came into force on 1 January 1949), residence in New Zealand no longer qualified British or Commonwealth citizens for a New Zealand passport, and they had to apply for New Zealand citizenship then for a passport, with increased work for the Department of Internal Affairs. In 1950 the number of passports issued topped ten thousand, twice as many as were issued in 1939. .[7] Between 1948 and 1977, New Zealand passports bore the words 'New Zealand citizen and British subject'.[8]
Starting on 1 July 1981, the Fraser Government announced that New Zealand citizens could no longer travel to Australia without passports, as it was felt that too many people who were not entitled to travel without passports to Australia were passing themselves off as New Zealanders.[9][10]
In 1992, the Department of Internal Affairs started issuing machine-readable passports in New Zealand, whilst New Zealand overseas posts continued to issue manual passports. Since 24 February 1992, children's names have no longer been endorsed in the passports of their parents. In February 1997, the New Zealand High Commission in London began issuing machine readable passports.[11]
In December 2000, French was removed from the biodata page of the New Zealand passport and replaced with Māori - this change was brought about by the Department of Internal Affairs to reflect the status of Te Reo Māori as an official language of New Zealand and to give "New Zealanders travelling abroad a passport that more accurately reflects their national identity".[12]
In 2001, the Department of Internal Affairs took over responsibility for the London Passport Office from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.[13]
By 2003, only around 4% of all New Zealand passport holders still held a non-machine readable version.[14]
All passports issued from 24 April 2005 to 29 November 2015 - both adult and child - have a maximum passport validity of five years as a result of the Passports Amendment Act (2005). Passports that were issued prior to 24 April 2005 remained valid until the date of expiry as stated on the biodata page. From 24 April 2005, New Zealand passports were no longer endorsed with name changes, which meant that, for example, changing to a married name required applying for a new passport.
On 26 October 2004, New Zealand diplomatic posts stopped issuing manual passports and, on the same day, began issuing short-term machine-readable emergency travel documents for New Zealand citizens who need to travel urgently.[15][16] One of the reasons for reducing the number of non-machine readable passports in circulation was to increase the security of New Zealand passports; another was that, starting on this day, New Zealanders travelling to the United States under the Visa Waiver Program were required to enter on a machine readable passport.[17] From this date onwards, all New Zealand citizens applying for a passport overseas have had to send their application to the Passport Office in New Zealand, Sydney or London. It also meant that all New Zealand passports issued on or after 26 October 2004 were machine-readable. Remaining non-machine readable New Zealand passports (M series) were still valid and expired by 25 October 2014 at the latest (only around 2% of New Zealand passport holders still have a non-machine readable version).[18]
On 4 November 2005, the Department of Internal Affairs began issuing New Zealand biometric passports (EA series).[19] In order to cover the higher costs associated with the production of biometric passports (compared with the previous machine readable passports), the application cost increased from NZ$71 to NZ$150 for adults and from NZ$36 to NZ$80 for children.[20]
On 23 November 2009, the Department of Internal Affairs launched a new (and the current) version of the biometric passport (LA series), supplied under a contract with the Canadian Bank Note Company at a cost of just under $100 million over five years. One of the motivations for a new passport design was to ensure that it would remain difficult to produce counterfeit New Zealand passports.[21] Unlike the previous biometric passport, photographs on the biodata page are now laser engraved in black and white for extra security.[22]
On 29 May 2014, after considering the Petition of Kyle Lockwood, the Government Administration Committee recommended to the New Zealand government that ten-year passports be reinstated. The committee concluded "On the evidence received, we are not convinced that the reduction in detected fraudulent passports is a result of the shorter validity period. It seems more likely to us that the introduction of biometric passports has lessened fraud and counterfeiting. The international standard among countries such as Australia, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America, who use similar biometric passports, is ten years. The biometric security features have led countries such as China, Canada and the Netherlands to reintroduce ten-year passports. We support the intent of the petition." [23] Law changes were passed in 2015 and since 30 November 2015, 10-year passports are available again for New Zealanders.
The number of New Zealand passports and travel documents issued by year is as follows: [12] [24] [25] [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] [31] [32] [33]
|Passports (standard service)
|Passports (urgent service)
|Emergency travel documents, refugee travel documents and certificates of identity
Entitlement to a passport[edit]
Only New Zealand citizens are entitled to be issued New Zealand passports. Other travel documents are available from the Department of Internal Affairs for New Zealand refugees or residents who are unable to obtain passports from their home countries but need to travel; see New Zealand Refugee Travel Document and New Zealand Certificate of Identity for details.
|Front Cover Image
|Biodata Page Image
|Issued for ordinary travel, such as holidays and business trips.
|Diplomatic [34]
|Issued to New Zealand diplomats, top ranking government officials and diplomatic couriers.
|Issued to individuals representing the New Zealand government on official business.
|Emergency Travel Document
|Issued for urgent travel.
|Certificate of Identity
|Issued for alien residents of New Zealand who are unable to obtain a national passport
|Refugee Travel Document
|Issued for recognised refugees in New Zealand.
Holders of a diplomatic or official passport must use their regular passport instead if their travel is for private reasons.[35]
Obtaining a passport[edit]
Application procedure[edit]
The Department of Internal Affairs is responsible for issuing New Zealand passports. The Department of Internal Affairs issues passports from its offices in Auckland, Christchurch and Wellington in New Zealand, as well as overseas offices in Sydney and London. New Zealand embassies, High Commissions and consulates outside of Sydney and London are not able to issue passports, although diplomatic officers may be able to provide application forms and assist in communicating with an issuing office.
Adult passports now can be applied through online for both first time and renewals. Processing time is 10 working days plus delivery, unless an urgent or call-out service is requested. There are online fees for Australia and the UK as well as New Zealand.
Urgent travel[edit]
In emergencies, some New Zealand embassies, High Commissions and consulates may be able to issue an Emergency Travel Document with a validity of only one year intended to assist New Zealand citizens who do not have the time to obtain a passport in time to travel. An application for a New Zealand Emergency Travel Document (ETD) costs NZ$350 and includes the fee for a full replacement passport before the expiration of the ETD.[36] In countries where there is no New Zealand diplomatic post, New Zealand citizens who need to travel urgently and whose passport has expired, been lost or been stolen can be issued with an Emergency Travel Document at a cost of £95 by a British foreign mission as long as this has been cleared with the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.[37]
Endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship[edit]
As an alternative to obtaining a New Zealand passport, New Zealand citizens with another nationality and a foreign passport/travel document can apply for an endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship from Immigration New Zealand (INZ). The endorsement can either be physically affixed inside the foreign passport/travel document or can be electronically linked in INZ's database to the foreign passport/travel document. An endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship is valid for the duration of the foreign passport/travel document it is endorsed in or electronically linked to. An endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship costs NZ$130 for first time applications and NZ$80 for subsequent applications, which means that it is cheaper than obtaining a regular adult New Zealand passport. The fee for the endorsement is completely waived if electronically linked to or affixed inside a passport issued by Austria, Finland, Greece, Iceland, Israel, Italy or Turkey.[38] Given that the maximum validity of New Zealand passports is 10 years for adults and 5 years for under 16 year olds, an endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship may work out to be an even more economic option if affixed inside or linked electronically to a foreign passport/travel document which has a longer validity (e.g. 10 years). It is also easier to obtain an endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship than a New Zealand passport overseas, since an endorsement can be issued at INZ offices in Apia, Bangkok, Beijing, Ho Chi Minh City, Hong Kong, Jakarta, London, Moscow, Mumbai, New Delhi, Nuku'alofa, Pretoria, Shanghai, Singapore, Suva, Sydney and Taipei, whilst New Zealand passports are only issued overseas by the Department of Internal Affairs in Sydney and London. However, New Zealand citizens with dual/multiple nationality travelling on a passport/travel document issued by another country may be unable to access New Zealand consular assistance whilst overseas and may not be able to enjoy as many visa exemptions. For example, a dual New Zealand and Samoan citizen travelling only on a Samoan passport with an endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship affixed inside is unable to obtain a Special Category Visa (SCV) upon arrival in Australia and must obtain an Australian visitor visa before travelling, since to obtain an SCV a New Zealand citizen must present a valid New Zealand passport.
Return travel to New Zealand without a passport[edit]
In general, to establish his/her right to enter New Zealand, a New Zealand citizen is required to present a valid New Zealand passport or a passport issued by another country that is electronically linked or physically affixed with an endorsement indicating New Zealand citizenship.
However, a New Zealand embassy, high commission or consulate or an Immigration New Zealand branch can request that the immigration officer at a port of entry in New Zealand not demand to see a passport of a New Zealand citizen in urgent or compassionate circumstances (e.g. death or serious illness) where there is not enough time for a New Zealand passport to be issued.[39]
Physical appearance[edit]
The current version of New Zealand passports issued since November 2009 are black, with the New Zealand coat of arms emblazoned in silver in the centre of the front cover. The words "NEW ZEALAND PASSPORT" and "URUWHENUA AOTEAROA" are inscribed above the coat of arms in silver. The standard biometric symbol appears at the bottom of the front cover. Both the front and back covers have silver ferns embossed on the outside edge.
Regular passports issued prior to November 2009 had a navy blue cover.
Passport note[edit]
Passports contain a note from the issuing state that is addressed to the authorities of all other states, identifying the bearer as a citizen of that state and requesting that he or she be allowed to pass and be treated according to international norms. The note inside New Zealand passports states:
- The Governor-General in the Realm of New Zealand requests in the Name of Her Majesty The Queen all whom it may concern to allow the holder to pass without delay or hindrance and in case of need to give all lawful assistance and protection.
and in Māori:
- He tono tēnei nā te Kāwana-Tianara O te Whenua o Aotearoa i raro i te Ingoa o Kuini Erihāpeti ki te hunga e tika ana kia kaua e akutōtia, e whakakōpekatia te tangata mau i te uruwhenua nei i ana haere, ā, i te wā e hiahiatia ai me āwhina, me manaaki.
The textual portions of New Zealand passports are printed in both English and Māori. (Previously English and French.)
Biodata page[edit]
The biodata page of the current version of the New Zealand passport includes the following data:
- Photo of the passport holder (in black and white)
- Type (Momo): P
- Issuing state (Whenua): NZL
- Passport No. (Tau Uruwhenua)
- Surname (Ingoa whānau)
- Given names (Ingoa āke)
- Nationality (Iwi tūturu): NEW ZEALAND
- Date of birth (Rā whānau)
- Sex (Tāne-Wahine)
- Place of birth (Wāhi whānau) (Passports issued after December 2005 will only include the city of birth)
- Date of issue (Rā timatanga)
- Date of expiry (Rā mutunga)
- Authority (Te Mana Tuku)
The information page ends with the Machine Readable Zone.
Under the Passports Act 1992, the Minister of Internal Affairs has the power to refuse a passport, for example, on grounds of national security. The Minister also has the discretion to issue a passport for less than the full ten year validity period.
Israeli spies (2004)[edit]
In 2004, two Israeli intelligence agents working for Mossad, Eli Cara and Uriel Kelman, were convicted and jailed for attempting to obtain New Zealand passports through submitting fraudulent applications. A third suspected Mossad agent, Zev William Barkan, who was a former Israeli diplomat based in Europe was involved in stealing the identity of a tetraplegic Aucklander to obtain a passport fraudulently in his name.[40] It was not until a year later that the Israeli Government formally apologised to the New Zealand Government for its actions.
Israeli spies (2011)[edit]
Even after apologizing to the New Zealand Government for fraudulently and illegally using New Zealand passports, the Israeli Secret Service (Mossad) again used their passports for facilitating assassinations.Following the death of an Israeli, Ofer Mizrahi, in the 2011 Christchurch earthquake, the New Zealand Government investigated whether he and his companions had links to Mossad. There were concerns that the travellers may have been trying to infiltrate the police national computer system to gain access to information which could be used to clone New Zealand passports,[41]
Mizrahi, who died in the earthquake after being crushed by falling masonry in a parked van, was found in possession of more than one foreign passport.[42] His travelling companions, Michal Fraidman, Liron Sade and Guy Jordan, met with Israeli officials and left New Zealand within twelve hours of the earthquake.[43] Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu phoned New Zealand Prime Minister, John Key four times to enquire about the four Israelis.[42] However, no conclusive evidence could be found to implicate the backpackers.[43]
Previous Passports[edit]
Visa requirements[edit]
New Zealand citizens travelling on a New Zealand passport enjoy the privilege of visa-free access to over 170 countries and territories around the world, including all European Union member states according to the Visa Restrictions Index.
Foreign travel statistics[edit]
According to the statistics these are the numbers of New Zealand visitors to various countries per annum in 2014 (unless otherwise noted):

Business incubator opening in Vilas County
Submitted: 11/07/2013
Story By Dan McKinney
- Building a successful business can be challenging especially if you don't have experience.
That's why some owners turn to business incubators. They offer space for start-up companies to develop and share resources.
A new business incubator in Vilas County will open soon. The 13,000 square foot building was originally a 7 UP distribution center.
"People have ideas and we can be the vehicle for them to develop those ideas into a functional or profitable business," says Bob Egan, Executive Director Vilas County Economic Development Corporation.
This incubator focuses on helping start up manufacturing companies. But it's not just a place to host companies. It also offers resources including mentors.
"The key element to success is having a really really proactive business plan moving forward, and that requires legal advice marketing advice, insurance advice, all kinds of that," says Barry McLeane, Project Manager for Eagle River and Manitowish Waters Incubators.
"That's what we do we've got a extensive list of advisors that help with all of those processes," says McLeane.
The new business incubator will open early next year.

Boulder Junction Airport offers $1,000 reward seeking runway vandals
Submitted: 08/23/2016
Play Video
- Pilots find very little room for error when they make a landing. Wings, flaps, and landing gear all need to work properly. Then there's the runway itself, which needs to be flat and smooth.
So, when pilots found ruts and divots torn into the grass runway at Boulder Junction's airport, folks were more than upset, they were worried about safe landings. Airfield president Jeff Long thinks someone used a pickup truck to do the damage. It happened right before the airfield's busiest weekend of the year, the Musky Day fly-in.
"To see somebody disregard that, disrespect that, and then again the safety, where somebody could get hurt that we're inviting up here for summer fun, doesn't make you feel very good," Long said.

Eagle River Airport asking for federal funds to fix decades-old runway
Submitted: 08/23/2016
Play Video
- Cities across the Northwoods drop tens of thousands of dollars every winter on crack sealing roads. The Eagle River Airport is no different. The airport spent about $25,000 in 2016 patching up its main runway.
Arguably, that runway is even older than most roads people drive on. The runway was last redone in 1971. On a busy day, the 5,000-foot runway hosts upwards of 80 takeoffs and landings. Airport manager Rob Hom showed Newswatch 12 a number of places where the pavement is buckling and cracked. That can lead to dangerous landings for small planes.
"Relative to a car or a truck [a prop-powered airplane is] pretty light relatively speaking, so having a smooth runway is imperative," Hom said.

Pollinators in the Northwoods workshop set for this Friday in Three Lakes
Submitted: 08/23/2016
Play Video
- Pollinators play an essential role in the growth of plants, and it's not just bees that help pollinate.
Butterflies, bats, and even mosquitoes are pollinators, but those populations have been in decline in recent years.
"Across the U.S., pollinators have been seeing big declines," said Oneida County Conservationist Michele Sadauskas. "We've been hearing more and more about our honeybee pollinations. The monarch populations have had dramatic decreases. So we're seeing it across the board."

Outstanding for certain purposes.
I bought this box to handle web browsing and simple games for my young kids. I've been looking for something like this for quite a while - something simple and compact with built-in wireless, but not necessarily that powerful. Since this unit doesn't have a built-in CD, I did have to buy an additional USB external CD/DVD drive to install software, and that's worked out fine. The graphics are very acceptable for web browsing, basic educational games, and even internet video clips. Great for simple web browsing, and I suspect this unit would also be good for light office use. One additional major bonus with this unit is the extremely low power consumption - my watt meter shows less than $7 per year of energy use (compared to $70-80 with my other PCs). The only thing I didn't like was the odd hard drive partition scheme; I prefer a single partition, and so I merged the C and D partitions, then reinstalled the OS from the built-in restore partition (very easy). I also noticed an issue with the wireless network sometimes having very slow response, but this seems to have been fixed with a driver update to the wireless.

Chinese Fashion Company Vlov Inc. Sets Sights On U.S. Presence 2 commentsApr 2, 2013 10:59 AM | about stocks: VLOV
The Company
VLOV Inc. (OTCPK:VLOV) has been a designer, marketer and seller of casual high fashion apparel geared towards middle class men ages 20-45 in the People's Republic of China; and now, the United States. As of September 30, 2012, the distributors had 435 point's of sale across 11 provinces. Additionally, the Company owns and operates 19 stand-alone and store-in-stores in the Fujian Province.
VLOV carries the unique honor of being the first Chinese company to be invited to the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in New York City, along with internationally recognized brands like Calvin Klein (NYSE:PVH), DKNY (NYSE:EL) and Ralph Loren (NYSE:RL). A video interview following the latest New York show can be viewed here. Mr. Qingquing Wu, the company's CEO and Chief Designer, also received the "Top 10 Designer Award" for two consecutive years at the Mercedes Benz China Fashion Week.
US Assets
In January of 2013, Trinity Place Department Store, located in the financial district of New York City, announced VLOV would occupy the entire third floor of their building, showcasing their unique collection of clothing. Trinity Place is less than a quarter mile from the New York Stock Exchange. In February of 2013, the VLOV line went live for sale on the Trinity website. The Trinity store development has yet to be issued a press release by the Company. This is a critical legitimacy validation I expect will propel the company to a double digit stock price following VLOV's April fiscal year 2012 earnings report. Those familiar with the sector will observe that after Xinyuan Real Estate Co. (NYSE:XIN) announced a US (also New York City) presence, the stock has since rocketed to new all time highs.
Valuation and Strategic Options
Besides trading well under their cash position of $7.91 per share, with a P/E of less than 1, the company has active up-listing ambitions. With insider ownership standing at 51.3%, the public float of VLOV is a mere 1.26 million shares. According to email correspondence with VLOV's CFO Bennet Tchaikovsky, the up-listing to a senior stock exchange will be completed without an investment banker. The CFO also expressed the company has no hesitation in allowing the PCAOB to verify their customers, which is a new requirement for up-listing. Bennet went on to say that the company is well aware of the rampant fraud perpetrated by US listed Chinese companies, and feels that an successful up-listing (it would be the first in 2 years) would validate the company's legitimacy. The anticipated up-listing is also mentioned in VLOV's latest investor presentation dated November of 2012.
The company is obviously frustrated, and I believe that it has also been exploring going private options if their up-listing ambitions don't materialize. Though not confirmed to be VLOV, in this Dorsey brag sheet, they mention "Advising a Chinese apparel company (OTC) on going private options". There is only one OTC Chinese apparel company, VLOV.
Further Industry Recognition
VLOV Inc. has actively updated US and Chinese websites, and is making inroads with US Hollywood elite as evidenced by this video interview with venerated actor Alan Cumming. The Chinese high-fashion industry is still in its infancy, and explosive growth is only beginning. Simon O'Connell, who runs the trends consultancy "Society", explains why men play such an important role in the consumption of luxury goods in China in a February 2013 article written here. Simon has worked for just about every men's magazine in both the UK and US, including Esquire, FHM, and GQ. Note the reference to VLOV towards the end of the piece.
There are several other undervalued US listed Chinese fashion stocks, including Zuoan Fashion Ltd. (NYSE:ZA) and China Xiniya Fashion Ltd. (NYSE:XNY). These companies do not have assets in the US, and although still "cheap" by many standards, already enjoy much higher valuations than VLOV.
The company is making rapid inroads into the international fashion scene, and has recently announced a brand new series of Nordic inspired clothing that is already gaining fanfare. VLOV filed an NT-10K yesterday, as they have done in past. The 10K should be filed within the next two weeks. I strongly encourage active market participants to put this low floater on close watch.
