Our next lecture in the Fascination Science series is on Tuesday 27th November 7pm-8.30pm at Massey University's Auckland campus in Albany in the Sir Neil Waters lecture theatre.

Putting on the Squeeze: High-Pressure Physics and Chemistry

We are put under pressure all the time. If not by us or others, our atmosphere does the job! All the air above us weighs us down. What happens to matter if we increase this pressure further? At pressures in the inner core of the earth where we find about 300 million times the atmospheric pressure, or at even higher pressures found inside stars? Gases like oxygen and hydrogen eventually become metallic - conducting electric current.

Come and see Dr. Elke Pahl conduct experiments to understand what pressure is, how it influences our life and get an insight into current research on materials under ultra-high pressure.

We will be back in 2019 with our monthly Fascination Science lecture series, so keep an eye out for updates on our Fascination Science website www.massey.ac.nz.... The first talk in 2019 will be a Fascination Science Special on Thursday, 24th January 2019 at 7pm by Kirsi Peltonen, Aalto University, Finland on 'Sensual Mathematics'.

Stalwart boxing supporter and North Shore resident, Dave Cameron, is handing over a rare boxing trophy to Auckland Boxing.
The trophy, for the most successful trainer in the amateur champs, was first awarded in 1926 was last awarded in 1956.
Dave said the trophy was awarded annually and should have been returned to The Northern Boxing Association at end of each year.
However, the trophy was found under a house in South Auckland a couple of years ago and ended up on Dave's doorstep. Dave is a collector of boxing memorabilia but he is handing this one over.

Super tenants looking for super landlord

Madison from Bayview

Hi everyone
My mum and I have had five lovely years in a house on Spinella Drive with an awesome landlord + property manager.

Now we're hoping to have another long term relationship with a great landlord. We're both professionals who work in the city, though I work two days from home. We have two lovely senior rescue dogs. We take pet ownership seriously, so they're well trained and friendly, regularly groomed and sleep 90% of the time. They used to be outside dogs but they're getting old bones now and ideally we'd like a house where we can have them inside more often. We can provide references for their behaviour.

We take care of the house as if it is our own - we make sure the lawns and gardens are tidy (my mum is an amazing gardener), and spring clean the house top to bottom every 3-4 months including cleaning the carpet. We are looking for a long term arrangement as we want to feel at home and settled. If you or someone you know is looking for great tenants, please get in touch - maddy@splice.org.nz
Thanks!
