Maori music awards celebrate Maori music, artists
BODY:
The Waiata Maori Music awards - which honour the creators and performers of te reo Maori music - are being held this evening in Hastings. Te Manu Korihi editor Shannon Haunui-Thompson has more.
EXTENDED BODY:
The Waiata Māori Music awards are being held this evening in Hastings.
The awards were established nine years ago by the late Tama Huata to acknowledge and honour the creators and performers of te reo Māori music.
Te Manu Korihi editor Shannon Haunui-Thompson has more.
Waiata Māori Music Awards executive director Ellison Huata said the awards were a platform to celebrate Māori artists and recognise their talents.
"It's important on many levels because there has been a long time when our artists alone have not been celebrated, it's not an easy field to be in when you have to write your own material and work with the people, and sometimes it becomes a thankless job for those who are striving to make it in the industry."
Ms Huata believes the awards are a way to celebrate te reo Māori and said it was a struggle to get waiata Māori airplay on mainstream radio.
"For some of our artists mainstream to them is our iwi radio stations, but in terms of our pakeha world it is a struggle because it hasn't been acknowledged as much. They are Māori New Zealand artists, so all our artists should be getting the same kind of play, whether it be in english or Māori."
Māori musician Rob Ruha is a finalist in six categories tonight, which he said was surprising.
"It's humbling and also it's really welcomed, I do this as a full time living, myself and my wife, as my wife is my management.
"This has been a labour of love, labour of passion, for the last two years and it's really good to get a break in the weather like this, after all the dedication."
Mr Ruha said singing in Māori was natural as te reo is his first language.
"For me it's as natural as the sun rising in the morning and setting in the afternoon, te reo Māori is my preferred language of communication so naturally it's going to be the preferred, or natural, language to compose in.
"It's not a political stance or a position to take or that we're fist pumping 'yeah we need to be singing in te reo Māori', it's actually a natural choice."
Mr Ruha starts his first national tour on Saturday in Hastings where he'll play songs from his soon to be released new album.

Is the nuclear family a thing of the past?
BODY:
New research finds that only a quarter of 15-year-olds live with both their biological parents. Only 6 per cent of those surveyed part of The Next Generation Study, had spent their whole lives in households made up of only their mum, dad and siblings. Kathryn Ryan speaks with researcher Dr Judith Sligo about whether mum, dad and 2.5 kids are a thing of the past.
EXTENDED BODY:
The family unit of mum, dad and 2.5 kids may be a thing of the past, new research has found.
The Next Generation Study, conducted at the University of Otago, found that only a quarter of 15 year olds live with both their biological parents.
The participants of the study were the children of the internationally-renowned Dunedin Longitudinal Project.
Only 6 percent of those surveyed as part of The Next Generation Study had spent their whole lives in households made up of only their mum, dad and siblings.
Lead researcher Dr Judith Sligo said the data showed how much family dynamics had changed.
“I think there is recognition there are more types of family, but perhaps they are thought of in categories like single parent family, but what we found is those things are quite fluid and they don’t last for a long amount of time.
The complexity and diversity of the modern New Zealand family had been difficult to capture due to the changing nature of families, she said.
“It may even just be things like older siblings moving out of home or new babies being born or your parent getting together with a partner who also has children and all of those things always create change in families, it’s just a little bit more amped up maybe.”
While the low figure came as a surprise to Dr Sligo and her fellow researchers, it was not a surprise to her kids.
“I think for lots of young people, that is exactly what they see in their classrooms and among their friends. It is not a surprise to young people. Also, what happens in your family is normal to you.”

Sailing with the whales
BODY:
Sailor, skipper and marine scientist Jochen Zaeschmar, tells the story of false killer whales in a journey which ended up attracting the interest of a BBC documentary series. Jochen will be speaking at the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Seminar as part of Conservation Week 2016.
EXTENDED BODY:
Between December and May every year, 150 to 200 false killer whales visit New Zealand shores. But what these cetaceans get up to when they're not here remains a mystery.
Why do they travel with a pack of bottlenose dolphins? Where do they go in winter? And how did a mammal that looks like a slimmer pilot whale end up with such a name?
Marine scientist and self-described ‘whale geek’ Jochen Zaeschmar is on a mission to understand more about these temporary residents, a mission which has attracted the interest of a BBC documentary series.
He speaks to Kathryn Ryan from a boat in Opua.
False killer whales were given their name in 1846 because of similarities between their skull and (real) killer whales, or orca. They were first thought to be an extinct relative.
Jochen says that in other parts of the world false killer whales can be truer to their name and attack other whales and dolphins, but those who visit New Zealand seem to be lovers, not fighters – engaged in a mutually supportive relationship with groups of bottlenose dolphins.
Maximising food and safety in numbers are likely the reciprocal benefits for the relationship, but Jochen says we have a lot to learn about its nature.
Where does this mixed pack spend the New Zealand winter? Somewhere warmer is all we know so far.
Jochen says he has observed bite marks on the bottlenose dolphins which are the work of cookiecutter sharks that live in warmer offshore waters.
Despite cookiecutters helping themselves to bite-sized chunks of their travelling companions, false killer whales are currently considered a ‘non-threatened’ species in New Zealand.
Jochen believes the six months they spend here should give them status as ‘locals’ and protected as such.
Jochen will be speaking at the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Seminar as part of Conservation Week 2016.

School saves thousands of dollars by going sustainable
BODY:
Trident High School in Whakatane is going self-sufficient with water and students are gaining NCEA credits by working on the project.
EXTENDED BODY:
A high school in Whakatane is getting closer to being water self-sufficient, and is slashing its power bill.
Trident High School has won a 30,000 litre rain water tank, worth several thousand dollars, as part of the 'Water 4 Schools' programme.
The tank will supply enough water for one of its kitchens and could also be vital in a disaster.
Metal Technology teacher Dave Dobbin and his students are behind this intiative.
To win the tank the school had make a convincing business case for how they would use it.
The tank will harvest rainwater from the school auditorium and then a solar pump will filter the water to remove particulate and put it through UV sterilisation.
The clean water then goes back into the water supply for the auditorium which will the school hopes can serve as a functioning emergency evacuation centre.
One student is making it his project as part of his technology course and getting NCEA credits too.
Dave says students have been involved in other environmental projects, including one that has dramatically reduced on-site electricity consumption and bills.
And they were big bills - $120,000 a year for power.
“We set up a five year goal of reducing electricity use by 40 percent and we are 7 percent away from that.
That equates to $36,000 a year, he says
“We’re just on this massive long path, and we’re exceeding our targets so far in terms of conservation.”

Cats behaving badly
BODY:
Massey University Veterinarian Kevin Stafford is back with us to talk cat behaviour, and answer some of your questions. Today: Cats who hate other cats, cats who attack their owners and cats who have strange collecting habits.
EXTENDED BODY:
Cats that scrap, a cat who attacks its owner’s feet and the cat who won’t eat her food - what can be done to curtail this feline delinquency?
Massey University veterinarian Kevin Stafford answers your questions.
Jazz is a fighting cat, but he doesn’t always win and is costing his owners dearly in vet bills. Kevin suggests keeping him out of harm’s way at certain times.
Fatty bullies Hoody; he stalks her, attacks her and the fur flies. What’s behind this aggressive behaviour - territory or boredom?
Luka attacks his owner’s feet when they’re exposed, sometimes drawing blood. This, Kevin says, is no laughing matter and suggests immediate intervention. Luka has to learn who’s the boss.
Possum likes to collect and arrange objects in patterns. Is it an attempt to communicate; or just a random act of cat weirdness?
And Maia’s off her raw food diet. Does she need more culinary variety?

Compass to renegotiate contract as only six of 20 DHBs signed up
BODY:
The controversial hospital food provider Compass is having to renegotiate the contract it's offering to District Health Boards because so few have signed up.
EXTENDED BODY:
Hospital food provider Compass is having to renegotiate the contract it is offering to district health boards because so few have signed up.
The projected savings that DHBs could make from signing up to use Compass was based on all 20 DHBs doing so.
But currently, only six have signed - and a memo to Health Minister Jonathan Coleman revealed Compass was now rewriting its offer in an attempt to convince more DHBs to sign up.
Compass' services are being pitched to DHBs through NZ Health Partnerships - an agency that acts on behalf of all health boards, and is tasked with saving money through economies of scale.
Compass was intended to be one such way. If all 20 DHBs signed up to its service, the sector could save between $155 and $190 million over 15 years.
However, six have given the deal an outright no - lowering the savings provided by the economies of scale.
That means - and Mr Coleman has agreed with this - that Compass might hike prices for the DHBs who had already signed up.
He also said the more DHBs that signed up, the less they would pay for Compass meals.
NZ Health Partnerships was now trying get the undecided DHBs on board, and was rewriting its contract with Compass to make it more attractive.
The memo passed to Dr Coleman stated: "Health Partnerships will run a Food Strategy Session with DHBs, to look at how they can increase uptake of a nationwide contract.
"In addition, Health Partnerships is working with Compass to renegotiate the contract, to create a more holistic view of benefits, and derive improved value."
Until Friday afternoon, the Capital and Coast District Health Board (CCDHB), which covers the wider Wellington region, was one of the undecided DHBs.
An internal board document obtained by Checkpoint with John Campbell read:
"HPL (Health Partnerships Limited) continues to work to maximise benefits to the sector by encouraging the greatest level of participation possible.
"CCDHB has given clear advice to HPL that we have a sophisticated contract that includes a wider set of services than food, and that we wish to continue with current arrangements."
This afternoon, Capital and Coast DHB confirmed to Checkpoint it was turning down Compass' offer, making it the sixth DHB to do so.
The board chair, Virginia Hope, denied there was pressure on her DHB to sign up.
"I would just say it's a potential benefit that has been raised with us," Dr Hope said.
Minster should be held to account - Labour
Health Partnerships said undecided DHBs had to make a decision by the end of this month.
It said it was working with DHB shareholders to assist their decision-making - and would recalculate savings based on the total sign-up, next month.
Then it would be known whether the DHBs that had already signed up would face a price hike.
That would include the Southern DHB.
The Dunedin South MP, Labour's Clare Curran, said opposition to Compass was vocal and ongoing - because people hated the food.
She said the DHB could end up paying more, for a worse product.
"That's not only highly embarrassing, but it's inept and incompetent.
"The minister really should be held to account."
Health Minister Jonathan Coleman could not comment because he was in Northland.
