Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. April 30, 2010. ACC might become MOD. Thanks very much for your email. There is some hope that the Ministry of Social Development will take over funding from ACC. I wrote the story below yesterday but there wasn't any room for it in the paper. Social Issues Reporter, New Zealand Herald. Sexual abuse victims approved for ACC-funded counselling plunged from 472 in the first two months of last year to just 32 in the same months t...

K1W1: Road Trip - part 1
http://k1w1jax.blogspot.com/2013/04/road-trip-part-1.html
Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. April 19, 2013. Road Trip - part 1. Was asked: "How was the trip? Well, it had good bits and then there were some not so good bits, and in the middle, well, it was undetermined - could've gone either way, really. The concept of roughing it, camping out under the stars, was appealing at first, until reality set in. Instead, you are made acutely aware of all those YouTube videos of three-foot spiders under toilet seats and coile...

Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. January 26, 2011. Child Abuse - what becomes the focus? Several people mentioned the "child" (by legal definition) was under age - 14 - and therefore, it was a clear cut case of what we call here in New Zealand "Carnal Knowledge". It's under NZ Law, "Section 134 of the Crimes Act 1961. Carries a ten year penalty." said JP. The good thing about discussions like this with a group of like minded people is that, sometimes, they th...

http://k1w1jax.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. December 28, 2010. Couple on torture charges lose bail - National - NZ Herald News. A picture paints a thousand words. Thankfully, reassuringly, this picture claims only a small amount of real villains are out there but moreover, that each and every one of us has a bigger part to play than the equally calved up measure of "heroes" in this world. Inside that "everyone else" are people like the. Constantly having my concerns abo...

K1W1: Road Trip - part 2 (Navigation)
http://k1w1jax.blogspot.com/2013/04/road-trip-part-2-navigation.html
Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. April 19, 2013. Road Trip - part 2 (Navigation). You never really get a sense of how big Australia is until you leave the house. Day one of our Road trip was a wee test really. The aim was to drive the car to McDonalds, just up the road and take delight that we need not leave the comfort of our seats. Yes, we would eat like Kings! Off the what, the roundabout, the planet, the what - I'm fucking here now! Lauren's suggestion, t...

http://k1w1jax.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. November 30, 2010. I have moved and with that, comes new neighbours. Now, these ones aren't your usual neighbours - they rarely are, right? I haven't named them yet. Doesn't seem right especially as I haven't quite made that universal jump into telling them who I am - but they know I am here. For now (looks at calender), they seem sweet and adorable - not in a "let's take one home" kind of way but as in a close encounter with ...

Raw and real ramblings of a roving Kiwi with subjects as varied as the author. August 30, 2010. You want fries with that gravy train Jansen? Dr Peter Jansen - head of the Sensitive Claims Unit (SCU) at ACC, recently asked and received $650,000 from the NZ Health Research Council (HRC) to look into the "Maori Experiences of Health Services.". Well, they want to. In other words, are we shafting our. Māori (I was going to say consumer but that presupposes she actually got some service). some. Māori chick, t...
