Cyper attack on Tibetan Sympathisers  

Somebody is trying to use pro-Tibet themed emails to infect computers of the members of pro-Tibet groups to spy on their actions.

Groups working for freedom of Tibet all over the world have been targeted.
Attachments install keyloggers that collect and sends everything typed on the affected machine to a server via a Chinese DNS-bouncer system.

I wonder who would do that?

Sounds like us  

I'm not sure if they are doing it on purpose, but when the RadioNZ bird call is played, I can't help but appending the controversial phrase ...
"the Ruru. [pause] Radio New Zealand. [pause][insert mental comment] Sounds like us.
[grin].

Tuataras Tuis & Toadstools  


3 Toadstools

fern fiddlehead
Yesterday was a nice afternoon near the top of Karori Wildlife Sanctuary, wandering allong the Tui Glen Track.
There were plenty of Amanita toadstools under the pine trees, and the Robins were especially curious.
We were very lucky to spot a couple of tuataras basking near the track.
I managed to take lots of blurred and fuzzy photos of saddlebacks & stichbirds, bellbirds and fantails. ...but it was fun.

The end of Summer  

Moa Point

What better way to end a late summer day, than seafood takeaways and a beer at sunset.

That's the Point!  


Great news that the Wellington Marine Conservation Trust have abandoned their idea of building on Te Raekaihau Point and are now wanting to use a more appropriate site.
(My preference is the quarry area at the entrance to Red Rocks, but hey!)
The Maranui Depot quarry site they are now suggesting is far less of an insult to the coast.
The downside of the site is claimed to be that it doesn't have direct access to the seashore because of the road. If the Wellington City Council really wants to get behind it, a bit of earthworks would soon enable the road to be diverted *behind* the development, thus actually improving the site by creating another littoral park around the complex which doesn't have the road right by the seashore.
Here's my totally uninformed, but opiniated suggestion:
