Many Deaf people and children celebrate their first language - NZSL this week. Let's learn each day of the sign word of the day. Today - Figs.

There is no sign language for Fig, and I am a deaf linguist who uses similar India Sign Language (note they use two hands). I borrowed sign language on loan and used one-hand signs. Here are two photos, but fortunately, I could not download the video here. In the first photo, use your fingers and thumbs close together and move upward in the shape of a tip. In the second photo, open your hand like a flower opening. Then, the sign moves upward as a tip, then downward by turning the hand upside down and opening it like a flower. I hope this makes sense for you to learn. Update I made two video clips under YouTube.

Waipā District Council teams began removing the fish last week, recovering 90 in just two days. Since then, another 110 have been pulled from the centre of the lake, prompting concerns over water quality and the potential impact on local wildlife.
Have you seen any dead fish at the lake? Tell us about it in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

This time, we’ve looked at the nutrient we should be focusing on as we age (and no, it’s not the carbs v fat debate!) plus some luxury rail travel - with gourmet food.
We also feature a fabulous 80s band, by which we mean the youngest member is 80!

Takes compact flash and smart media cards.
Comes in the box, with owners manual and notes made . ( No lens cover)
Uses 4 AA batteries and does not need the extra CR123s .
This camera is sold as is where is. Because I do not have the cable or card reader I am unable to test it now but was wonderful when it previously. But it turns on and functions normally. It is well used and produced excellent results when in use. (Small chip on battery compartment .)

Residents who packed out the lounge and waited patiently for a chance to meet the PM said they were ‘very impressed’ at Luxon’s determination to get around everyone who had turned out to see him – even as his team started to worry he would be late for his next engagement!
