Campaign for NZ museum in France to honour war dead
BODY:
Auckland military historian Herb Farrant is leading the campaign for a permanent memorial museum in the northern French town of Le Quesnoy to honor New Zealanders who served in Europe during both world wars. 12,500 New Zealander soldiers are buried in France and Belgium. Mr Farrant, who is the secretary of the New Zealand Memorial Museum Trust says New Zealand's contribution to the Great War beyond Gallipoli is not well understood or appreciated. He has been leading tours to France and Belgium for 20 years, visiting the battlefields, memorials and graves of New Zealanders who served in both world wars. The Memorial Museum Trust has been offered a stately building in Le Quesnoy, in which the museum could be established, but it needs to raise millions of dollars to turn it into a reality.

Biologist and writer Robert Dunn on the history of heart surgery
BODY:
Brain surgery is thousands of years old, but it wasn't till the late 19th century that someone first undertook a heart operation, at least for medical purposes. Biologist and writer Robert Dunn has written a history of heart surgery which reads like a fast-paced, and occasionally macabre, thriller. It's called The Man Who Touched His Own Heart.
EXTENDED BODY:
If you look across different species of mammals, everything but humans seem to get about a billion heart beats, and so in some ways that is a measure of what a life is – it is a certain number of heart beats and that’s like a unit of time. If you’re a shrew you live a really quick life, everything passes fleetingly, and if you’re a whale you take slow beats, but it really does literally measure us. As modern humans we get an extra life’s worth of heartbeats – we get 2 billion – which is a pretty special modern situation.
Brain surgery is thousands of years old, but it wasn't till the late 19th century that someone first undertook a heart operation, at least for medical purposes.

Dancing at the Wellington Town Hall. Negatives of the Evening Post newspaper. Ref: 114/296/12-G. Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington, New Zealand.
Rock 'n roll hit our shores in the 1950s, and teenagers took to the exciting post-war American culture like ducks to water. Dances were organised and attended by thousands of people up and down the country - for teenagers and 20-somethings it was pretty much the only form of entertainment.
The dances of the 1950s and early '60s was an innocent and certainly pretty sober affair. The pubs closed at 6pm and the town halls and church halls where many of dances were held weren't licensed.
In Christchurch, the most popular was the Spencer Street dance in Addington. It attracted more than a thousand people on any one night. Entry was two shillings and sixpence, and as well as the music, there were three sittings of supper – sausage rolls, sandwiches, cake and a hot drink.
We've delved into the archives to unearth some gems from the dance halls past, and find out about the people keeping the jive alive today.
