Tried to get onto Stuff.co.nz today for your news fix and been left hanging with an error page?
Stuff.co.nz was one of the 14,000 Wellington Transpower customers which lost power this morning, also cutting internet connections by the failure of parts of CityLink’s high-speed telecommunication network.
Many businesses throughout the Wellington CBD and Northern suburbs lost power [...]
Despite the shock of 9-11, which happened in New Zealand on September 12, 2001 thanks to the time difference (why don’t we insist on calling it 12-9?), I still had to attend the breakfast for the first day of the Wellington Fashion Festival for Lucire. And, that morning, I had to pay for car parking [...]
We all work hard and pour heaps of energy into our businesses, so tonight’s a night of celebration for us and other businesses in Wellington New Zealand where our main base is, PlanHQ is a finalist in the regions Business Gold awards, should be a great night, here’s our little 30 second finalist video whipped [...]
Ha excuse the border as this one is going back a while when I used to bother with logo and border. Now I don’t use them however have been wondering if I should add a slight unobtrusive watermark to my photographs perhaps.

New Zealand. Each year the University offers PhD scholarships to those about to commence their doctoral studies. These Scholarships are intended to encourage doctoral study at Victoria University of Wellington.
Approximately 35 scholarships are available to graduates of any university within or outside of New Zealand who intend to enrol either for PhD. These scholarships
Los denodados esfuerzos que los invisible tentáculos del poder en el mundo han hecho para configurarnos como eficiente "patrio trasero" de los EEUU, pasa por la reconducción de nuestros pensamientos, visión de mundo, sentimientos y hasta preferencias en cuestiones tan sencillas como, por ejemplo, comprase un par de zapatos, de marca preferiblemente, y marca determinada. Se trata de las innominadas fuerzas del mercado y la cultura que, a título de progreso, tiende a manufacturarnos como producto de calidad que a su vez (¡curioso ser viviente!) procura otros productos, también de calidad.El acto simple de comprar el par de zapatos puede implicar tres situaciones: (1) que se desee comprar una específica marca, (2) que dicha específica marca tenga un precio que al momento no pueda paga
Air New Zealand is launching a six month trial of a direct service between Whakatane and Wellington.The new six days a week service will be operated by Air New Zealand subsidiary Eagle Air, which will trial the route for six months from May 19, using a 19-seat Beech 1900D aircraft.
I had an excellent meeting, to which I was late, with fellow bloggers Jim Donovan and Mark Di Somma. I discovered Jim via the blogosphere, while Mark and I know each other from the branding world. As those who have surfed Jim’s blog before, he’s no slouch when it comes to branding and we wound up discussing our respective views on it. We also discussed various WWI and WWII battlefields and theatres. I think we should make these casual meetings monthly, so I propose mid-February for the next one. I remarked to both gentlemen that for me, blogging hadn’t been financially rewarding given the hours invested in it, but some of the experiences, such as this one, have been well worth the time. The fact that we were able to meet up and discover

Sitting outside Mac’s Brewery on a Monday afternoon enjoying a brew - watching the clouds quickly drift by - “Stand By Me” playing over the stereo - winds whipped up - I’m the luckiest son of a gun - feeling like I pulled off The Great Rock ‘n Roll Swindle (a la The Sex Pistols). Living a dream is absurdly beautiful. Unbelievable. Fantastic. Amazing. “Sweet as” (New Zealand slang). Every day is an adventure - new scenes, sights, characters, emotions. I feel truly alive. Young skateboarders build their skills like I use to do.
Te Papa museum is a stunning architectural sight - with sections of roof echoing the curves of clouds above and waves below. Looks like I’ll finish that pint after all. Brilliant!

If you were clever and in Wellington, New Zealand, you could have made two events scheduled for the same time last night. Kelly Thompson, the first New Zealander to shoot a retail Lucire cover, had an illustration exhibition opening at Good as Gold on Victoria Street (on till the end of December). Last night she already managed to sell 13 of her works.
Zambesi, meanwhile, launched the Samsung U700v cellphone at its Wellington store, following a similar launch in Auckland at Vulcan Lane.
When I left Kelly’s opening for Zambesi, I noticed she was attracting a more arty crowd, while Zambesi got in fashionistas and a selection of customers, with four models (two friends, Sarah Garlick and Cadbury Dream Model Search ’07 finalist Jordan James among them) walking about talking up the ‘Zambesi presents Samsung U700v’ phone. For the Findlays, four members of the family had come from Auckland to attend, including Marissa Findlay, whose photographic work appeared in Lucire

Ever so often we come across one of those insanely simple ideas that, for one reason or another, result in something that is brilliant in its simplicity without being needlessly pompous – something that is, in short, quite simply happy to be what it is – and this Rainfall Measuring Wellington boot is a prime example of just such an item.
Arguably a d’rigour fashion accessory for festival goers (certainly in the UK) this Regina Regis Rain Wellington Boot may only differ from your regular, run-of-the-mill, otherwise wholly mundane Wellington boot thanks to the rain measuring scale imprinted on the boot’s sides but, with sea levels rising and flooding becoming an all too real threat to many, there could all too easily be a wider message here.
Whether a statement on our environment or just a fun take on an otherwise uninspiring item of protective footwear designed to keep out feet dry (but that always, somewhat curiously, always seem to fill with water) we love the striking simpli

The Wellington Neighborhood was created as affordable housing for locals here in Breckenridge. Due to the high cost of homes, it can be difficult for integral people in the community to afford to buy a place of their own. With professionals like teachers, nurses, policemen, firemen, and business owners looking elsewhere to live and buy, the town created affordable housing that has a work requirment and sometimes deed restrictions. Although you will not see the appreiciation you can find in other neighborhoods, if you live and work in town, this can be an affordable alternative to the high cost of homes in this second home market.

Tuesday was our first full day in New Zealand.
Monday, we arrived at M and C’s a little after ten. We spent the rest of the day trying to stay awake by exploring the village of Hataitai near M and C’s house in Wellington. The village is quite small and has a nice collection of shops, [...]
On our way out of Brussels, we decided to travel south to Waterloo, where the memorial for the Battle of Waterloo is. (I thought Waterloo was in England, which just goes to show that I do not know everything! :) ) We successfully found our way out of ...
