I wanted to make a reply to this post that was taken down. Well here is the title that is in the subject line anyways.

I want to say if that was me in a hospital while I was being operated on while being awake, I would find myself very shocked and disgusted. Who is the more important person that needs dealing with? The patient or the smart phone? I don't know what the exact post was on that got taken off just recently about this topic but it is good for everyone to be aware in case any of us face the same thing or to any other family.

If anyone did find that the other post got taken off, you can feel free to post the same comments on this post if you want to.

Should personal cannabis use be legalised? - Reply

Matt from Henderson

My opinion, NO! We as NZers shouldn't need to add cannabis to the drugs lists as is already is. I can understand that if people were in hospital or your needing cannabis for medicinal purposes, that I can understand with but for recreational for every day use, I say NO! Yes I am saying with… View moreMy opinion, NO! We as NZers shouldn't need to add cannabis to the drugs lists as is already is. I can understand that if people were in hospital or your needing cannabis for medicinal purposes, that I can understand with but for recreational for every day use, I say NO! Yes I am saying with my opinion with this one. This is why we are seeing many of our people are dying off or killing themselves earlier because of the chemicals that we are putting into our bodies. Now I did see on the news about the "vaping" topic, that they want people to try to stop them from "vaping" as well. Man this world in way getting out of hand.

I pray and hope that you people make the right decisions about what you do in your lifetime.

Two salmon products are being recalled because they may contain listeria.

The New Zealand King Salmon Co. Ltd has recalled a specific batch of its Southern Ocean brand New Zealand King Salmon Smoked Pieces and Regal Marlborough King Salmon brand Cold Smoked Salmon which may contain Listeria monocytogenes bacteria.

The affected batch is coded with M362D or M362N. The recall did not apply to any other Regal Marlborough or Southern Ocean brand products.

Consumers are being asked to check batch numbers and not consume the affected salmon, which was sold 200g and 500g vacuum packs.

The recall was a precautionary measure after test results for a single sample in the affected batch suggested it contained listeria. Read more here.

Revolutionary leader Nelson Mandela – known by his tribe as Madiba – would have been 100 this year. In celebration of his birthday and his legacy, a compelling new stage show, Madiba the Musical – a Celebration of Nelson Mandela is coming to Auckland.
