Christmas Comet.....

Gareth from Waikanae

In case any one is interested you may get a look at Comet Leonard (The Christmas Comet) with Binoculars or a telescope in the next few weeks. It's not been seen for thousands of years — and will never be seen again.
Gotta be worth a look to see if you can see it.

FYI..
Visually comets rarely look like all the photos that you see of them with a huge tail (as a time exposure was used), sometimes there is a tail visible but they usually look like a green fuzzy blob. Don't be disappointed if a green blob is all you see.... at least you will be one of the few people who actually saw it with your own eyes. :-}

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
