Australia is getting rid of face masks on flights. Will New Zealand do the same? – Stuff

Posted: September 2, 2022 at 2:43 am

Most countries no longer require passengers to wear face masks on flights.

New Zealand is now one of the few remaining countries to require face masks on flights but a move to the green light level could see that rule scrapped.

Australias national cabinet has just agreed to remove the mask mandate for passengers on domestic flights from September 9.

Asked whether the Government would follow Australia's lead and drop mandatory mask wearing on flights, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said: "Over the next few weeks, we're reviewing our settings... so looking at the way the traffic light system is working for us now and what we might need to do in the future.

We expect to share the details of that once we've received all of the final public health advice in the coming couple of weeks".

Australias move comes after Singapore Airlines last week announced passengers would no longer be required to wear face masks on flights, unless travelling to a destination where mask-wearing is mandated.

Most US airlines have dropped masking requirements since a federal judge struck down the travel mask mandate in April, while the European Union abolished its mandatory face mask requirement on flights and at airports in May.

In New Zealand, face masks have been mandatory for passengers aged 12 and over on all domestic flights since November 2020.

Face masks are also compulsory on all international flights to New Zealand.

When the Covid-19 Protection Framework, or traffic light system, was introduced in December 2021, face masks on domestic flights were compulsory under all settings red, orange and green. Under green, flights were the only scenario in which masks were required.

However, that requirement was removed from green when the Government made changes to the traffic light system in March.

The updated rules mean that if the Government decides to move to the green light setting in two weeks time, face masks will no longer be mandatory on flights though airlines may choose to enforce their own face mask policies.

Passengers may also choose to continue to wear them. While the aviation industry says the risk of contracting Covid-19 onboard a plane is low because of the way air is filtered, health experts still recommend wearing face masks because these filtration systems cant be relied on the whole time like when boarding and disembarking the plane.

A Harvard University study found the risk of transmission on an aircraft could be reduced to very low levels through a layered approach, with face masks considered the most essential layer.

On the governments Unite Against Covid-19 website, the Life at Green section says face masks are useful in poorly ventilated indoor areas and when you are around people you do not know.

Ampol to sell 49% of its Z Energy properties in New Zealand – PetrolPlaza.com

Posted: at 2:43 am

The Australian company will sell the assets to investment management firm Charter Hall for approximately $80.94 million.

Ampol has announced it will sell 49% of its New Zealand-based properties of its Z Energy subsidiary for roughly $80.94 million. The company confirmed that it found a buyer in management firm Charter Hall Retail REIT for the 51 properties across the country.

According to a recent report by Reuters, the fuel retailer has stated that the assets would be transferred to an unlisted property vehicle. While Charter Hall will obtain 49% ownership, Z will still hold 51% of the property as well as strategic and operational control of locations. In addition, the brand will lease all sites back under long-term triple net lease arrangements.

Ampol has confirmed the deal to be part of its partnership with Charter Hall in Australia, as well as being in line with its strategy to maximise opportunities for its core freehold sites. The company also announced that this transaction is expected to deliver about $75.25 million in net proceeds.

Z Energy was founded in 2011, after Infratil Limited and Guardians of New Zealand Superannuation bought the Aotearoa fuel business. By 2016, the brand became the wholesale fuel supplier to the network of Caltex-branded service stations. Last year, Z entered a scheme of arrangement with Ampol Limited and, since May of 2022, it has become a wholly owned subsidiary of Ampol Group until now.

Jess Kerr, Molly Penfold return as New Zealand announce squad for West Indies tour – ThePrint

Posted: at 2:43 am

Wellington [New Zealand], September 1 (ANI): New Zealands fast bowling duo of Jess Kerr, Molly Penfold and top-order batter Lauren Down returned as New Zealand Cricket on Thursday announced a squad for the West Indies for three ICC Womens Championship ODIs and five T20Is.

The trio are the only changes to the 15-player squad which claimed bronze at the recent Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, with Claudia Green, Rosemary Mair and wicket-keeper Jess McFadyen making way.

Kerr, whos become a mainstay with the new ball for the WHITE FERNS in recent years, was a late withdrawal ahead of the Birmingham Games due to a foot injury, while Down opted out ahead of the tournament to prioritise her well-being.

Coach Ben Sawyer congratulated all three players on their inclusion for the tour, which comprises a three-game ODI series and a five-game T20I series in Antigua, starting September 16.

Its an exciting time for the whole squad and particularly the three players making their returns. Weve seen the success Jess has enjoyed on the international stage in her career to date and its been encouraging to see her working her way back from injury, and training with the London Spirt over here in the Hundred in recent weeks, Sawyer said.

Its great to see Lauren return after taking some personal time away from the game. She was flying with the bat heading into the ODI World Cup in New Zealand earlier this year only to be ruled out of the tournament with that thumb injury so were looking forward to welcoming her back into the environment.

I first saw Molly bowling when I was working with Australia at the ODI World Cup and remember telling them how good I thought she was, just from watching her practice. You could see she had all the natural attributes for fast bowling and Ive been sent a few videos of her recent progress she seems to be going really well, he added.

Canterbury Magicians all-rounder Lea Tahuhu has retained her place in the squad after impressing as a replacement for Kerr at the Commonwealth Games.

The squad sees the retention of the four youngsters who impressed in Birmingham: wicket-keeper Izzy Gaze, Wellington Blaze batter Georgia Plimmer, Auckland Hearts left-arm spinner Fran Jonas, and Otago Spark off-spinner Eden Carson.

Sophie Devine will captain the side which also features the familiar faces of Suzie Bates, Maddy Green and Melie Kerr.

New Zealands women last toured West Indies in 2014, when they lost the ODI series 4-0, but managed to edge the T20Is 2-1 following a thrilling Super Over victory in the deciding match.

Black personalised plates launched as the newest accessory on New Zealand roads – Newshub

Posted: at 2:43 am

Buyers in the market for up-to-date plates can redesign their existing Government-issued combination from a white background to the new Black Plates from $199, with other options ranging in price depending on the level of personalisation. A 'restyle' is when people keep their current plate combination, but customise the design.

The release of the new Black Plates comes after a rigorous testing process with Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency and the New Zealand Police. Before any new plate design is approved for New Zealand's roads, it needs to comply with existing vehicle legislation and pass an extensive testing process. This includes camera testing in different conditions to ensure the new number plate is recognised correctly across different camera systems.

The updated plates also come with a new security feature in the form of a silver hologram forming the letters 'NZ', which is located on the bottom right corner of the plate. The security feature identifies the number plate as being authentic, which will assist the Police with on-road identification when required.

"The most popular request from our customers was for KiwiPlates to introduce black number plates. We listened to the market and have worked collaboratively with Waka Kotahi to make that happen," Wilson added.

Based on global trends, KiwiPlates expects that in time, the Black Plates could become more popular than the current white version, mainly due to the popularity of the colourway in overseas markets and black being New Zealand's national colour.

The company added that the Black Plates can make a significant visual change to the look and feel of the car and will likely prove popular among car enthusiasts, as well as Kiwis wanting to improve the aesthetic appeal of their vehicles.

KiwiPlates was appointed by Waka Kotahi in 2016 to market and sell personalisedplates in Aotearoa. Their sales help to make New Zealand's roads safer, as Waka Kotahi's Community Road Safety Fund is solely funded by the sale of personalised plates.

New Zealand Newscaster Claps Back At Man Constantly Complaining To Her News Station About Her Mori Face Tattoo – Bored Panda

Posted: at 2:43 am

The one skill we as humans all share excellence in is the ability to judge. A skill which has been developed throughout hundreds of years has allowed us to thrive and burn repeatedly. And with the world ever-expanding and connecting through various means of media, judgements are easier to vocalize than ever.

And yet, throughout said years, we havent been able to normalize the notion of respect for one another, or at the very least, learning when to keep ones mouth shut. If you dont understand dont speak on it. Learn about it. Take your judgements and see where they stem from. But this is a story about the other side about those who decide that their judgements are worthy of attention.

A New Zealand news anchor with a traditional face tattoo representative of her Mori heritage had been receiving complaints from a man, solely because he disapproved of her look. Enough was enough and she responded, sending a very clear message to all disrespect will not be tolerated.

More info: Instagram

Oriini Kaipara made history last year when she became the first person with moko kauaeMori markings on her chinto host national primetime news in New Zealand. She gave her first bulletin on Newshub in December 2021, with many cheering on the milestone as a win for Mori representation.

Image credits: oriinz

T moko is a unique expression of cultural heritage and identity through tattoo, and, as Mori believe the head is the most sacred part of the body, facial tattoos have special significance. Moko kauae are received by women on their lips and chin, representing their ancestry, status within their community, and abilities. It is a tradition passed down through generations from the ancestress Niwareka.

Before the arrival of European settlers, the complex designs of t moko were carved into the skin. This method of tattooing is based on the use of broad-toothed combs of varying widths, dipped in dark pigment, and struck into the skin with small mallets known as t. The pigment used was soot obtained from burning kahikatea, or white pine, sometimes mixed with kauri gum or soot from the oily koromiko (hebe) shrub.

Image credits: oriinz

Although she received much praise for honoring her culture, there were those who were appalled.

One man made it his personal mission to complain about her on-air presence. The man named David had been sending letters to the news station, asking them to remove her as a news anchor due to her looks and her use of Mori language.

Oriini shared one of his messages in her Instagram stories: We continue to object strongly to you using a Mori news presenter with a moku (sic) which is offensive and aggressive looking. A bad look. She also bursts into the Mori language which we do not understand. Stop it now.

This was the last straw shed had enough of his ignorant abuse. This guy is one of those gifts that keep on giving she wrote in the Instagram story. He constantly complains about my MOKU and that I look aggressive. Hes not emailing me direct but the whole tari kawe prongo. Today I had enough.

Image credits: oriinz

Her response went as follows: Kia ora (trans. hello) David, Thank you for all your complaints against me and my moku. I do find them very difficult to take seriously given there is no breach of broadcast standards. If I may, Id like to correct you on one thing its moko not moku. A simple, helpful pronunciation guide of Maw-Caw will help you articulate the world correctly.

She continued to say: I gather your complaints stem from a place of preference on how one must look on-screen, according to you. Moko and people with them are not threatening nor do they deserve such discrimination, harassment, and prejudice.

Image credits: oriinz

Moko are ancient cultural markings unique to the indigenous people of Aotearoa, myself included. We mean no harm or ill intent nor do we/I deserve to be treated with such disregard.

Please refrain from complaining further, and restrain your cultural ignorance and bias for another lifetime, preferably in the 1800s. She thanked him for his time in the Mori language and signed the letter as the lady with the moko kauae who speaks Mori but MOSTLY English on TV. With love and cheek indeed!

Image credits: oriinz

Thankfully such messages are outliers in the overall supportive sea of messages Oriini receives. The fact that my existence triggers some people is testament to why we need more Mori advocates in key roles across every sector, she told the NZ Herald.

Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari he toa takitini. Success is not the work of an individual but the work of many.

Image credits: oriinz

Image credits: oriinz

Oriini wanted to adopt the tattoo in 2019 after discovering she was 100 percent Mori after taking a DNA test in 2017. She is of Thoe, Ngti Awa, Twharetoa and Ngti Rangitihi descent. When I doubt myself, and I see my reflection in the mirror, Im not just looking at myself, she told CNN. Im looking at my grandmother and my mother, and my daughters, and those to come after me, as well as all the other women and Mori girls out there. It empowers me.

Shes also an avid advocate for the Mori language, commonly using phrases such as E haere ake nei (still to come), tonu mai (stay with us) and Taihoa e haere (dont go just yet). Her ultimate goal, she told CNN, is to encourage people to speak the language that was beaten out of [her] grandmothers generation and reclaim it for Mori people.

Image credits: oriinz

We still havent addressed a lot of intergenerational traumas and colonization and for Mori, thats very, very pertinent and poignant as well, Oriini said. Not much in terms of race relations here has changed in a very long time. But this is just the beginning.

Oriini hopes that her story will inspire generations of Mori youth and theyll see that times are finally changing. For a long time our people, our ancestors, our tipuna, and us now, have done so much work to get to where we are, she told CNN.

Image credits: oriinz

As a young woman, as a young Mori, what you do today influences and affects what happens tomorrow. So all I ask is that they see the beauty in being Mori and they embrace it and acknowledge that and do what they can with it for positive change.

We wish Oriini nothing but the best for the future keep slaying the haters with class! Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, and make sure to upvote and follow the author so as to keep justice coming! Poroporoaki mo naianei!

First penguin in New Zealand to undergo cataract surgery makes full recovery – Stuff

Posted: at 2:43 am

Supplied

The seven-year-old gentoo penguin had bad posture, and struggled to socialise as a result of vision-blocking cataracts in both eyes.

A penguin from Auckland's Kelly Tarlton's Aquarium has become the first of its kind to undergo cataract surgery in New Zealand.

Cardi, a seven-year-old gentoo penguin, underwent the surgery on April 29, after developing vision-blocking cataracts in both eyes.

The symptoms started when she was young, and continued to develop over time, taking away more of her vision as they progressed, said Amy Wardrop, penguin keeper at Kelly Tarltons.

This began to impact her quality of life, as she would startle easily when keepers or other penguins moved around her suddenly.

She often had a hunched posture as she tried to angle her head, so she could see through the limited window of vision she had around the cataract.

Gentoo penguins are a social species, so being able to interpret and respond appropriately to social cues is important for their welfare, and a lot of these cues are visual, Wardrop said.

Staff became concerned about the cataracts developing further, and taking away even more of her vision.

Supplied

Symptoms started when Cardi was young, and continued to develop over time, prompting staff at the aquarium to act.

Operating surgeon Dr Peter Hadden said Eye Institute regularly performs cataract surgery on human patients, however, they were up to the challenge of welcoming their first ever feathered patient into the operating theatre.

Specialist equipment, separate from what is used on human patients, was ordered to ensure the staff could operate safely on a penguin, he said.

There was a rigorous process required both before and after the surgery to ensure the highest levels of safety and cleanliness were met at all times.

The operating team had a refrigerated truck waiting outside because it was important Cardi did not overheat.

Supplied

The operating team working on Cardi ordered specialist equipment, different to what is used on humans, for the surgery.

Our usual bed also wasnt appropriate for a penguin, so we had to modify it, said Hadden.

Vets from Auckland Zoo who specialise in animal anaesthesia attended the surgery to administer the anaesthetic and monitor Cardi throughout surgery.

The surgery took longer than usual, because the cataract was so advanced.

Most humans would have had cataract surgery much earlier due to the severe impact on vision.

SUPPLIED

Oh Baby! A king penguin chick named Primo has hatched at Sea Life Kelly Tarltons Aquarium in Auckland.

However, Cardi's recovery and reintegration into the colony was a complete success.

The cataract was successfully removed from her right eye, Hadden said.

She was then placed into a smaller area of the penguin section for three weeks post-surgery to keep her out of the pool.

This was also to ensure the team could reliably administer eye drops and medication to prevent any infection or inflammation in the eye as it healed, he said.

We had completed some eye-drop training with Cardi before her surgery so these caused minimal stress, and we let her partner and any other interested Gentoos in with her throughout the day, so she had company while she recovered.

Since her recovery, the sea life team have noticed a change in Cardis confidence.

She no longer displays a hunched posture and is much more interactive with other penguins, keepers and enrichment items, said Wardrop.

The New Zealand Resort That Might Not Open At All This Year: Mt. Taranaki – SnowBrains

Posted: at 2:43 am

Mt Taranaki, picture:Taranaki_nz Instagram Page

While we reported on Mt. Lyford resort closing and Mt. Ruapehu temporarily closing this southern hemisphere season, there is a resort in New Zealand that has not even opened yetat all.

The Manganui Ski Area at Mt. Taranaki on New Zealands North Island is located 45 mins from the coastal town of New Plymouth which is on the west coast. New Plymouth is on track for one of the warmest winters on record. Records go back to 1944 NIWA principal scientist Chris Brandolino said.

The Manganui Ski Area is one of New Zealands many club resorts. Club resorts are still widespread in New Zealand. Though they are clubs they are open to the public, but they run the resort not for profit but rely on volunteers. The focus is not on comfort but authenticity; they have a bit of an old-school skiing vibe. Lifts are all surface lifts, mainly rope tows and some t-bars. There is a very typical rope tow here referred to as the nut cracker (no not those nuts, dont worry, guys!). The nut refers to the anchor point with which the skier tethers themselves to the rope.

Mt. Taranakis ski resort, which is located in the Egmont National Park, is run by the Stratford Mountain Club.Club President Jenni Fletcher said they wereclose to opening in July and early August but the snow was too wet and it just was not possible. Somepeople did ski without lifts operating but 10 days of rain recently washed all the existing snow away.

Without cold airflow from the antarctic in the south and a marine heatwave over the coast in the north, things are looking rather bleak right now.The cost to operate the resort is low at only $732 (NZD1,200) a day, so it could pivot quickly. As a club resort, it is not motivated by profits but is run mainly by volunteers and grassroots ski enthusiasts.

Mt. Taranakis Manganui Ski Area goes from a base elevation of 4,134 ft (1,260 m) to 5,512 ft (1,680 m). The peak of the volcano Mt. Taranaki is at 8,261 ft (2,518m), making it the second highest elevation on New Zealands North Island. The resort has a skiable area of 59 hectares (145 acres) that is serviced by three surface lifts and a t-bar. There is a natural half-pipe and miles of backcountry skiing. The resort has no snow-making facilities but the resort has an average snowfall of 300 cm a year.

It has been known to open as early as May in some years but this would be the very first time in more than three decades that the resort has not opened to skiers and riders at all.

The resort is not unfamiliar with extreme seasons. In 2009, the resort opened as early as May 16, whereas in 2018 there was a late snow dump not enabling skiing until November.

There is still a chance for snow andshould the region get snow, the resort could turn around to open quickly.Odds are against the little resort, as the southern hemisphere is heading into spring and days are getting longer. But we keep our fingers crossed for all struggling New Zealand resorts this season.
