A project to find out meaningful information about Central Hawke's Bay's health and social services has been launched. The six-month project - "Solutions" - has been funded by the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) and is a joint initiative between Central Hawke's Bay District Council, Central Health, and Anglican Care, Waiapu Social Services. Central Hawke's Bay Mayor, Trish Giddens, says project Solutions will first map all of the health and social services in CHB, and involve the whole community. "This is very exciting for Central Hawke's Bay. It's a chance to survey service providers and citizens to discover any barriers or gaps in services and resourcing. An example is the concerns many parents have about the loss of the PAFT (Parents as First Teachers) free education course."

CanTeen ambassadors including Dan Carter, Maria Tutaia, Paige Hareb, Lisa Tamati and Scott Dixon will be amongst the first New Zealanders to sign a petition to show their support for the International Charter of Rights for Young People with Cancer. The New Zealand launch of the Charter follows the international launch at the Royal College of Surgeons in London, England, on Monday New Zealand time. For New Zealand, the charter aims to ensure the voices of young people between 13 and 24 years old are heard and their circumstances improved, through a set of ten rights that address their unique needs. The public can sign the global petition via the dedicated website: http://www.cancercharter.org .

In 2010-2011, Ngāti Kāpo O Aotearoa is conducting a national study into kāpo (blind or vision impaired) Māori children and young adults up to the age of 21. The research is about finding out how kāpo Māori children and kāpo Māori young adults, along with their whānau, access eye specialist services, and about kāpo Māori children themselves. This will be done by talking to whānau and by establishing a paediatric vision database. Ngāti Kāpo wants to know how many kāpo Māori children and young adults are in New Zealand, about their eye problems and health, and find out if anything is a barrier for them, or their whānau, when seeking an eye specialist or a diagnosis. They hope that whānau with a kāpo child or young adult will join the study. Simply call Ngāti Kāpo O Aotearoa on 0800 770 990 and they will send you more information about the study and a participant interest form.

Two major processes that contribute to the implementation of Whānau Ora have opened, heralding what Governance Group chair Rob Cooper described as 'a new era of whānau-centred services and initiatives led by families and communities around the country'. The Whānau Ora Governance Group has called for Expressions of Interest (EOI) from eligible providers or provider collectives seeking to develop comprehensive whānau centred services; and is also seeking nominations to Regional Leadership Groups (RLGs) to lead strategic change for Whānau Ora in the regions. To enable eligible providers and/or provider collectives to participate in Whānau Ora, Mr Cooper said two waves of implementation will occur. "The first wave of providers must be able to demonstrate strong organisational capability and capacity. They must currently provide whānau-centred services and have an immediate readiness to participate in Whānau Ora," he said. "The second wave will allow providers and/or provider collectives additional time to build connections with other providers in their regions to develop an EOI." The first wave EOI closes at 2pm on 7 July with final decisions known by 2 August. The second wave EOI closes at 2pm on 2 August with final decisions known by 30 September.

Whānau Ora Minister Tariana Turia has told a Māori Affairs Select Committee that she is delighted at the momentum being generated around Whānau Ora. Mrs Turia told the committee that she had seen the enthusiasm first hand when she spoke at 12 Whānau Ora hui last month for groups interested in delivering Whānau Ora. "There has been an enthusiastic response from iwi who are responding to their natural interest and responsibility in taking care of their own. "The feedback I have been receiving is that already groups are collaborating and working together to understand how to best work with a Whānau Ora approach."

For the third year in a row, artists from the New Zealand Art Guild have joined forces to raise money and awareness for the Mental Health Foundation through a unique charity art project and auction. On 2 July, the NZ Art Guild unveiled their 2010 collaborative project titled 'Bloom' during the opening night of their exhibition "Emerge". This one of a kind project is compiled from 64 individual artworks created by 62 NZ artists who each interpreted the theme "New Beginnings and Growth" into their piece. When combined, these individual panels create a stunning artwork measuring 1.3m x 1.3m - auctioned on TradeMe with 100 percent of the proceeds donated to the Mental Health Foundation. The opening night of 'Emerge' also saw 12 fantastic artworks by some of New Zealand's top artists auctioned off to benefit the Foundation. "Emerge" opens on 2 July at 6:30pm at the Bruce Mason Centre, Takapuna, Auckland. The exhibition runs until 30 July.

A recent current affairs programme on TVNZ's 20/20 focussed on the appalling track record of violence perpetrated against women and children in this country. The women featured took inordinately brave steps to talk about the damage done to their lives and their children's lives. And they're going further. Underway is an extraordinary work of art. Bev Short, a feisty and award-winning photographer, is assembling a collection of images of Kiwi women. They are women who are notable for their life choices, their profession, their unusual foibles, what they aspire to be and where they have already made their mark. The women in the 20/20 episode bravely elected to bare their souls before Bev's lens in the hope that doing so will encourage more women to summon up the courage to ask for help, to get out, to finally accept that it is not OK to live with violence. Eventually the image of will be part of a collection of evocative and provocative images which will form a book currently titled All Woman and an exhibition - both will chronicle their dreams and hopes in images and their own words.

A new treatment manual developed as part of doctoral research could result in significant improvements and outcomes for Māori receiving treatment for depression. Clinical psychologist Dr Simon Bennett's recently completed research included the development of a cognitive behavioural therapy programme and manual adapted for use with adult Māori. The treatment programme Te huanga o te ao Māori: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Māori clients with depression integrates Māori concepts with the traditional Western strategies associated with cognitive behavioural therapy. The manual was developed in consultation with local and international literature and the recommendations of an advisory team made up of psychologists, kaumatua and other mental health workers.

Fluency in Pacific languages is critical to maintaining healthy Pacific heritage arts in New Zealand, according to research published by Creative New Zealand. "Many Pacific communities emphasised that the health of heritage arts in this country cannot be considered in isolation from Pacific languages," says Chair of Creative New Zealand's Pacific Arts Committee Pele Walker. "In knowing the language you can pick up the underlying values and the unique aspects of culture. Often, the strength of a community's language is a good indication of the health of its heritage arts." The research conducted by Massey University across New Zealand's seven main Pacific communities was identified as a priority in Creative New Zealand's strategic plan for 2007-2010. Health of Pacific Heritage Arts 2009, Research Executive Summary is available for download at: http://www.creativenz.govt.nz/initiatives/pacific_heritage_arts_research .

Recent data from the Charities Commission demonstrates the huge contribution being made by volunteers across New Zealand says Gillian Peacock, Chairperson of Volunteering NZ. The data, which comes from returns to the Commission by registered charities and released in April, shows there were about 440,000 volunteers working unpaid in the 17868 charities represented in the report. "Taking into account these are just part of the 97,000 not-for-profit organisations Statistics NZ has indentified, it confirms other research that at least one third of New Zealanders 10 and over are volunteers," said Gillian Peacock. She said that the contribution these volunteers are making is more important than ever and needed to be fully acknowledged during Volunteer Awareness Week 20 - 26 June. "Over the last 18 months we have all been affected by the global recession; although money is tight, we still see much giving in the form of volunteering," Gillian Peacock said. "In hard times communities pull together. I think it also reflects a shift in values, or perhaps a return to our old values. Volunteering benefits communities, organisations and individuals."

A nationwide survey of more than 800 volunteer managers has found that the greatest challenge they face is the recruitment of volunteers. This is followed by not having enough time or money to achieve goals, and matching and retaining volunteers. The online survey, open to anyone involved in the management of volunteers, was conducted by Victoria University, in partnership with Volunteering New Zealand and funded by a Tindall Foundation grant. The research was undertaken across two schools in Victoria University's Faculty of Commerce and Administration, by Dr Cordery from the School of Accounting and Commercial Law and Dr Karen Smith from Victoria Management School. The survey results provide a snapshot of the volunteer sector, including who are managing volunteers, what their role involves, how they feel about their role overall, their broad training needs, and where they see themselves in the future.

"The unrelenting pressure on social services in our communities continues despite the small drop in the unemployment rate," said Ruby Duncan, the New Zealand Council of Christian Social Services (NZCCSS) Acting President. "Christian social services and other organisations providing support for families in NZ communities have responded magnificently to the impacts of the recession. They have stretched their resources, sought out additional supports and made a significant difference to families who have had their incomes reduced through one or more family members losing work," Mrs Duncan said. "While we see many examples of families being badly affected by poverty, we also see how friends, family and communities work hard to help support each other." Vulnerability Reports will only be published online with printable versions available for download from the www.justiceandcompassion.org.nz website.

One of New Zealand's charitable community trusts is putting its weight behind efforts to improve literacy and numeracy standards among school children, but its financial donation to the cause is designed to ensure a fun approach to learning. The Eastern and Central Community Trust extends from Poverty Bay, south through Hawke's Bay, Tararua, Wairarapa, Horowhenua and Manawatu. The community trust has announced $185,000 towards a summer reading programme, which is delivered through more than 30 libraries in its region, and to several others further afield. The summer E.C. READ'N programme is in its 13th year and has been extended to include 'winter warmer' and Te Reo Maori language versions, with more than 8,000 children taking part each year.

Social Development Minister Paula Bennett has joined Associate Minister Tariana Turia in announcing the expansion of Community Max to four targeted areas. "The Government is investing $17.4 million in Community Max programmes for Northland, Bay of Plenty, Waikato and the East Coast to address high unemployment in those areas," said Ms Bennett. "This investment means another 1,500 young people will gain experience and skills while working with the community," said Mrs Turia. Community Max was launched in August last year as part of the Government's Youth Opportunities programme. It provides a six-month placement for 16- to 24-year-olds to work on community or environmental projects, where participants are paid at least the minimum wage and are eligible for training related to their project.

There are many online games, but more than 1.5 million people around the world play one that's become popular recently: Foursquare. The point is to connect with your friends.
Disclaimer: I don't play Foursquare myself.
He nui ngā tākaro tuihono, engari kei te tākaro neke atu i te 1.5 miriona tāngata huri noa i te ao i tētahi kua tino paingia i nā noa nei: ko Foursquare. Ko te whāinga ko te tūhono atu ki ō hoa.
Kupu karo: Kāore au i te tākaro Foursquare.
You need a GPS-enabled cellphone with an Internet connection, and a Twitter, or Facebook account.
You also need to sign up with Foursquare. It's free.
Me whai waea pūkoro kua whakahohea te Pūnaha Kimi Taunga (GPS) me te hononga ipurangi, me tētahi kaute Twitter, Facebook rānei.
Me haina atu hoki ki Foursquare. He koreutu.
When you go places, such as to shops, restaurants, museums or parks, you 'check in' with Foursquare.
If you wish, your checkins are broadcast to your Twitter and Facebook friends.
You can see if any of your friends are nearby, and perhaps leave Tips about special features such as discounts and sales, or the best item to order from the menu.
You may also find Tips from other Foursquare players suggesting things to do nearby.
You can also add places that aren't already listed on Foursquare.
Ina tae atu koe ki ngā wāhi pēnei i ngā toa, ngā wharekai, ngā whare tongarewa, ngā papa rēhia rānei, ka 'taki mai' koe ki Foursquare.
Ki te hiahia koe, ka whakapāhotia ō takinga mai ki ō hoa i Twitter me Facebook.
Ka taea te kite mēnā he pātata ki a koe ētahi o ō hoa, me te waiho Aki pea mō ngā āhuatanga motuhake pēnei i ngā whakahekenga utu me ngā hokohoko, te kai tino pai rawa rānei hei tono i te rārangi kai.
Ka kitea pea he Aki mai i ētahi atu kaitākaro Foursquare e hoatu whakaaro ana mō ngā mahi ka taea i te takiwā.
Ka āhei hoki te tāpiri wāhi kāore anō kia rārangitia i Foursquare.
Every time you check in to a particular place you earn points or badges.
If you check in at a particular location more often than anyone else in a month you become the 'Mayor' of that location. This gives you status, but some businesses or organisations may also give you special rewards such as discounted or free goods and services.
This is essentially a loyalty reward. An example may be that every 5th checkin earns 20% off a purchase.
Other businesses may make special offers to Foursquare players, whatever their status.
Hei tēnā, hei tēnā o ō takinga mai ki tētahi wāhi ka whiwhi whiwhinga, tohu rānei koe.
Mēnā ka maha atu ō takinga mai ki tētahi wāhi ake i tētahi marama i ērā atu tāngata ka whakaingoatia koe hei 'Koromatua' o taua wāhi. Ka whiwhi mana koe, engari i tua atu ka hoatu pea ētahi pakihi, whakahaere rānei ki a koe i ngā tohu motuhake pēnei i ngā rawa me ngā ngā ratonga kua whakahekea ngā utu, he mea koreutu rānei.
He utu ngākau pono anō tēnei. Hei tauira pea, ka utua he whakahekenga utu 20% mō ia takinga mai tuarima.
Ka hoatu pea ētahi atu pakihi i ngā tukunga motuhake ki ngā kaitākaro Foursquare, ahakoa tō rātou mana.
As a business, or perhaps a museum or other non-profit venue, it can be useful to participate in Foursquare. They can see statistics about how many people are visiting, what time of day they visit, what gender visitors are, and many more details.
Part of the benefit to them is that as you check in you're promoting their venue, especially if you broadcast your location to your friendship networks.
Tērā pea ka whaitake ki tētahi pakihi, tētahi whare tongarewa rānei, tētahi atu whakahaere monihua kore rānei te whai wāhi ki Foursquare. Ka taea te kite tauanga mō te tokomaha e toro mai ana, ngā wā o aua toronga, te ira tangata o ngā kaitoro, me te maha atu o ngā taipitopito.
Ko tētahi wāhi o te hua ka whiwhi rātou ko tō whakatairanga ake i tō rātou whakahaere ina taki mai koe, ina koa ki te whakapāho koe i tō taunga ki ō whatunga hoa.
Foursquare describe themselves like this:
Foursquare is a mobile application that is a cross between a friend-finder, a social city-guide, and a game that encourages users to explore their neighborhoods and rewards them for doing so. We do this by combining our friend-finder functionality and social city guide elements with game mechanics — our users earn points, win mayorships and unlock badges and specials for trying new places and revisiting old favorites.
If you enjoy exploration, and friends, this may be an online game that appeals to you.
Ka pēnei tā Foursquare whakaahua i a rātou anō:
Ko te taupānga pūkoro a Foursquare he ranunga o ēnei, he kairapu hoa, he ārahi pāpori ā-tāone, he tākaro hoki e whakatītina ana i te kaiwhakamahi ki te hōpara i tōna takiwā me te utu i a ia mō taua mahi. Ka pēnei mā te hono atu i tā mātou taumahinga rapu hoa me ngā huānga ārahi pāpori ā-tāone ki ngā āhuatanga tākaro – ka whiwhi whiwhinga, koromatuatanga ā mātou kaiwhakamahi, me te huaki tohu me ngā āhuatanga motuhake hei utunga mō te toro ki ngā wāhi hou me te toro atu anō ki ngā wāhi kua tino mōhio kētia e rātou.
Ki te pai ki a koe te hōpara me te hoa, tēnā pea ka pai tēnei tākaro tuihono ki a koe.
Once upon a time you could pretty much guarantee that visitors to your website would be sitting at 'a computer' — either at a desk, or using a laptop.
Every day now the chances are greater that visitors are using a Smartphone, or a similar device such as an iPad. Those visitors may also be 'out and about', on the bus, at a friend's house, in a shop.
It's now very common for people to use Smartphones or iPads to visit websites. If they have problems using the site they may:
Tērā anō te wā ka mōhio tūturu koe e noho ana ngā manuhiri i tō paetukutuku i mua i 'tētahi rorohiko' – i te tēpu, e whakamahi ana rānei i tētahi rorohiko pōnaho.
I te hipanga atu o ia rā ka nui ake te tūponotanga ka whakamahi ētahi manuhiri i tētahi Waea Atamai, tētahi pūrere rite rānei pēnei i te iPad. Tēnā pea kei waho aua tāngata i te kāinga, te wāhi mahi rānei, kei roto pahi, kei te kāinga o tētahi hoa, kei tētahi toa.
Whakamahi nuitia ai ngā Waea Atamai, ngā iPad rānei e ngā tāngata mō te toro i ngā paetukutuku. Ki te rarua tā rātou whakamahi i te paetukutuku, tērā tonu pea:
A Smartphone is more than just a regular cellphone, in a few important ways:
A Smartphone probably also has specialised Applications for sending email, using Twitter or Facebook, perhaps reading QR Codes, and much more.
Some websites create specific 'apps' to display the content from their website. One example is the Discovery News app for iPhone. It allows users to see the latest headlines, read the stories and view the pictures without actually using a web browser.
Arā ētahi āhua hira e nui ake ai te Waea Atamai i te waea pūkoro noa:
Tēnā pea he Taupānga tauwhāiti ā te Waea Atamai mō te tuku īmēra, mō te whakamahi Twitter, Facebook rānei, e pānui waehere QR ana, me te nui atu pea o ngā mahi.
Ka hanga taupānga tauwhaiti ētahi paetukutuku hei whakaata i ngā ihirangi mai i aua paetukutuku. Ko tētahi tauira ko te taupānga Discovery News mō te iPhone. Ko tāna, he tuku i ngā kaiwhakamahi kia kite i ngā kupu upoko tino hou rawa, te pānui i ngā kōrero, me te tirotiro i ngā whakaahua, kāore he whakamahi i te pūtirotiro.
A Smartphone usually sees web pages a bit differently from a desktop computer though:
Ko te tikanga he paku rerekē te āhua e kitea ai ngā whārangi tukutuku e te Waea Atamai i tā te rorohiko papamahi kite i ēnei, ahakoa:
You should find some people with Smartphones — ask friends and neighbours, or go to a shop that sells them — and try visiting several parts of your own website.
Depending on the nature of your website too, you might also consider whether to make a specialised 'app' for it.
Does your site work well with a Smartphone?
Will it make friends or enemies out of your visitors?
Me rapu ētahi tāngata he Waea Atamai ā rātou – pātaihia ō hoa me ngā kiritata, haere rānei ki tētahi toa e hoko ana i aua waea – me te whakamātau ki te toro atu ki ētahi wāhi o tāu ake paetukutuku.
I runga i te āhua o tō paetukutuku, me whai whakaaro pea ki te hanga i tētahi taupānga tauwhāiti hei whakamahinga mā te Waea Atamai.
He pai te mahi o tō paetukutuku me te Waea Atamai?
Ka noho ō manuhiri whakamahi hei hoa, hei hoariri rānei?
