The value of life in NZ has become so cheap that one can kill another for a couple of hundred dollars is really heartbreaking. RIP# Youngman you'd have never thought of such an ending. Heartfelt condolences to the family and the neighborhood of #Sandringham.

"After a three-year hiatus, the popular Lantern Festival will be held in February 2023 to celebrate Chinese New Year," the list reads.
"Pasifika, the largest Pacific Island cultural festival in the world, is returning in March 2023 after a two-year pause.
"And, in July, the quadrennial FIFA Women's World Cup 2023 will swing down under."
The article also points to New Zealand's recently-reopened status, after borders were closed due to Covid-19.
"Three years' worth of flashy hotel openings await.
"From the looks of it, 2023 will – finally – give Auckland its time to shine."
It comes after a number of other recent global accolades for Tāmaki Makaurau.
Lonely Planet picked Auckland as the best city to visit in 2022 and Kingsland is officially one of the world's coolest suburbs.
'Living up to our name'
==================
Tātaki Auckland Unlimited's head of visitor economy Annie Dundas welcomed the news.
"It's fantastic to see Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland again acknowledged as a top destination to visit by a trusted international travel publication – living up to our name as a place desired by many," she said.
"We are excited to be welcoming back our international manuhiri to explore our amazing attractions, events and festivals, as well as the many new accommodation, dining spots and activities on offer throughout our region."
On top of this year's Lonely Planet listing and Kingsland's Time Out shout-out, Dundas pointed to other recent achievements.
"This adds to a list of recent awards for our region – Auckland was also recently named the Best Global Music City at the Annual Music Cities Awards, and also awarded Oceania's best destination for meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions for the third year running at the 2022 World MICE Awards," she said.
================================================
We are pleased to announce another season of fantastic music and movies in parks, offering something for the whole whānau right around the region.
Music in Parks: 14 Jan to 26 Mar.
Movies in Parks: 27 Jan to 31 Mar.
Make the most of Tāmaki Makaurau for free this summer!

One thing I noticed again yesterday in NW: people assume that buying a large package size is cheaper than buying a small package size. So they are buying the 5 kg bags of flour at $8 even though they are more expansive ($2.40/1.5kg) than the 1.5 kg which was on offer for $2.20 …

So they are buying the 5 kg bags of flour at $8 even though they are more expansive ($2.40/1.5kg) than the 1.5 kg which was on offer for $2.20 …
People seem to have trouble comparing these “not round numbers” but the calculation can be easily done in the head:
$8 for 5 kg equals
(divide by 10)
80 cents for 500 g
so for 1.5 kg = 3x 500 g
3x 80 cent = $2.40
So each 1.5 kg of the large package was 20 cent more expensive.
Or in other words: the 5 kg package cost them 67 cents more.
Might be small change for you - but it nicely adds up for NW.
NW is really good at fooling people (don’t get me started on their “price freeze” which is just an excuse to get rid of special prices) so be aware that as far as NW is concerned a larger pakcge size does not equate to a better price.
