Volunteers needed in Rotorua!

The Team from Heart Foundation NZ

This February it’s our Big Heart Appeal street collection and I'm really hoping I can count on your help.

Our success depends on generous people like you, who give 90 minutes of their time to collect much-needed funds for the Heart Foundation. Why 90 minutes? Because every 90 minutes another Kiwi dies from heart disease. But by coming together and shaking a bucket in your community, we can make more life-saving research.

I will be out on the streets collecting alongside fellow Kiwis this February, can I count on you to join me?

Warmest wishes,
Tony Duncan
Chief Executive

hi,
I need some more book cases and / or shelves, to house my paperback & magazine hoards. Preferably taller, than wider. Although I should be able to stack them up, to the desired height. I can do minor repairs & cleaning. And don't mind what material/s they're made of. As long as they'll safely hold the books. AND are cheap, like some on trademe.

thanks

Another family gets together and another possible chance for you to laugh at your uncle’s snoring problem. The thought of waking up neighbor’s dog with Uncle’s snore might seem very funny but the concern might be really serious for him.

When you sleep, your muscles relax and while this happens, your throat gets narrower and tongue falls back. So, when you breathe there is a specific snoring sound that is created. The narrower your throat becomes, louder the sound of your snore gets. Besides the muscle relaxation, there are different other causes such as old age, blocked airways, and excessive neck fat.

Morning all,

Based on feedback, the Facebook machine is about to make some major changes - shortly you will have 2 news feeds to look at - the primary feed containing (friends/family posts and advertising), and the secondary EXPLORE feed containing (business/org/interest pages posts).
Better for the general consumer who will see more 'social' posts - after all that's what facebook was intended for.

SO, how does that effect businesses? Well any organic posts reach will decrease, with facebook testing showing 4x less reach. And how facebook ranks and releases posts will change as well..

Flick me a message if you'd like more info on how to improve your businesses presence on facebook and/or Google

Maija is Missing :(

Helen from Pukehangi - Mangakakahi

My friends cat Maija has not been seen since last night.. missing from Bata Place.


Maija is a big girl, who has black fur with a speck of white below her neck and on her tummy, who likes her food - hence it is unusual that she hasn't been home for dinner - and a bit shy.
