Early last Century Professor Hall declared that adolescence is a period of “storm and strife” and this description seems to have stuck. We now understand so much more about the developmental period between puberty and the end of the formative part of brain development, and in the light of this new understanding, we can declare that this is an exciting and ever changing but extremely important time of life.

Hi,
Anyone got any Closet Maid shelving knocking around that you're looking to get rid of? I'm after a single 4' x 1' wire shelf (with mounting hardware if possible) to match what I already have. Image attached for reference. Cheers.

Hi all,
I have small amount of firewood to give away over the weekend... this is wet and won't be able to be used until split and dried over next summer.
Not sure on quantity but once split at least 1m2 I’m guessing, mixture of trees.
Pick up is near Foodstuffs. Please text … View moreHi all,

Three years ago the Christchurch City Council funded about 35 percent of its annual budget, however that funding is now half of what it once was. The organisation aimed to help people with a range of issues, including legal problems, employment issues, family disputes and tenancy concerns. The council itself refers people to the service.
Bureau chairperson Neil Lancaster said if funding cuts continued, the organisation would have to scale back its programmes.
"We appreciate the funding restraints that exist for the Christchurch City Council at the moment," he said.
"But I guess our worry is that on one hand they class us a priority one community group, but at the same time they have halved our funding.
The organisation wanted to expand in the city's east, but that might not be possible.
They operated a "face-to-face" service in Eastgate Mall, as part of a group of similar community groups, and could now only afford to be there once a week.
"If our funding had stayed the same, we could be looking at offering a service there three days a week," he said.
There was strong demand for the bureau's service in the city's east, Mr Lancaster said.
"Sometimes we would go along there about half an hour before we start and there could be two or three people waiting."
RNZ News has approached the Christchurch City Council for comment.

Akaroa's The Little Bistro owner Richard Uttley has no regrets over banning children under 10.
He's actually had the policy for nearly three years, but it was only noticed in a big way at the weekend when a woman complained about being turned away.
