"Although I didn't look my best when I first arrived at SPCA, it didn't take long for me to settle in and start looking healthier and happier. I charm most people I meet, and have lots of love to give. I can be a bit over the top when first meeting other dogs, but have gotten to make some friends and get to win them over with my exuberant greetings. If I were to go home to another dog, it would need to be one who is social and still eager to share playtime with me as an older dog may get annoyed with me. I am better suited to medium to large male dogs so this is my preference for a home. When it comes to training I come across very goofy at first, but am very motivated by treats and have started to pick up training easily. I'd like to continue training in my new home and show you what I'm capable of achieving. Although I can be full of beans at times, I really do love a good cuddle and chill out time with my humans, and once I have a good routine I am sure to flourish in my new home. I am so full of character and bound to provide you with lots of laughs. History of my previous homes is unknown, and for this reason combined with my personality, the team is looking for a home for me with confident children over 10 years or adults. I am looking for a home without cats."

The high number of people killed or seriously injured on New Zealand’s roads in April is a sad reminder of the importance of the need for safe behaviours when driving.

“Road safety has been a sharp focus for Council over the past two years and we’ve set our targets to reduce serious injuries on our roads by at least 40 per cent by 2030, and have a zero death rate by then,” says Porirua Mayor Anita Baker.
To help raise awareness of what we can do to make our roads safer, Council will be running a range of road safety activities in the CBD during Road Safety Week from 9–13 May, from 9am to 4pm daily. During this week there will be several informative displays, clinics and events in Cobham Court to work towards safer roads for our drivers, passengers, cyclists, and pedestrians. A car that was involved in a fatal crash on Paekākāriki Hill in 2009 will be on display, preserved in its mangled final state with the original beer bottles still inside. “I attended to this crash where a combination of alcohol, drugs and speed led to the death of one person and the serious injury of two others,” says Mike George, Porirua City Council Road Safety Co-ordinator. “The survivors were very lucky to be alive and are still on ACC, making this one of the most expensive ACC claims in history.”
Another chilling display in Cobham Court from Monday to Wednesday next week will be the Decepta concept car – you might have seen this in a recent road safety commercial on TV showing a car that looks normal from the outside but is mangled on the inside, demonstrating the damage a car with a 1 star rating can sustain. “If you’re not sure about your current car’s safety rating or you want safety advice for a new car, come over and have a chat to our team, we’ll gladly check out your car and help out,” George says. There will also be free car seat clinics available for the whole week to help parents with car seat safety checks.
These clinics usually only take place on the second Wednesday of each month at Mungavin Hall between 1–3pm. “Park in the Cobham Court area and then ask our team to check your car seat. We’re here to correct any issues and make sure your kids are safe and secure in your vehicle,” George says

Private investigators were scruffy chain-smokers who took photos of adulterous couples as evidence in divorce cases. Or, perhaps, they were aristocratic amateur sleuths who solved perplexing murders in country houses.
Things have changed, according to this week’s speaker Dr Gavin Knight. Gavin is multiply qualified in engineering, statistics, data science, and more recently, criminology. His wife is a forensic scientist. Gavin has worked for the police and in the justice and health sectors and started a new company, Independent Investigators, about a year ago. He works from home. His business has only one employee, himself, but many strategic partners.
Gavin explained that he was engaged in an old game with new rules. Investigators must be licenced and are strictly regulated. Ethical and privacy issues are front and centre.
New technology helps the PI, especially recording devices, CCTV, and of course the internet. Data analysis can reveal identities and patterns of behaviour in new ways.
Finding people and carrying out background checks require great care to avoid privacy breaches. Similarly, complaints arising in the workplace may reveal systemic or cultural problems requiring tact and counselling on the part of the PI. Gavin cited resistance to Covid restrictions as an example of changing values in some parts of society.
The Pi's role is to “find the truth and the evidence, if any, needed by decision-makers” and to do so using just procedures in a spirit of fairness.
An interesting talk well-received by our members.

Hi Tawa neighbours can you please keep a lookout for my blue Toyota Aqua NBD259 stolen overnight. It has the back damaged from a rear end recently which was awaiting repair.The tinted glass all over the ground where it was parked so that should be noticeable too.
