# New Zealand Fashion Week

New Zealand Fashion Week, also known as NZ Fashion Week or NZFW, is an annual Fashion Week held in New Zealand.

## History

New Zealand Fashion Week held its first show on 23 October 2001, opened by the prime minister at the time, Helen Clark. It was held at the Auckland Town Hall and sponsored by L'Oreal (the event was called L'Oreal New Zealand Fashion Week until 2004).
In 2004, Air New Zealand replaced L'Oreal as the naming rights sponsor of the event and the new main venue was moved to the Alinghi and Team New Zealand sheds at the Viaduct Harbour in Auckland.
In 2009, Air New Zealand dropped its naming rights sponsorship for the show.
In 2014, the event moved to the Viaduct Events Centre.
In 2019, NZFW moved back to the original venue at the Auckland Town Hall.
Dame Pieter Stewart, founder of the event, sold it to Faroz Ali in May 2021.
The 2020, 2021 & 2022 fashion weeks were all cancelled. In 2020, the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and postponed until 2021, which was later cancelled. The 2022 show was also cancelled.
For the return of NZFW in 2023, Kate Sylvester will display her new collection at the show, and the show will also focus on Māoritanga, sustainably and consumers.
# Kojo Annan

Kojo Adeyemo Annan (born 25 July 1973) is a Ghanaian-Nigerian businessman and son of the late former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan.

## Early life

Kojo Annan was born in Geneva, Switzerland, on 25 July 1973. Kojo Annan and his sister Ama Annan are from Kofi Annan's first marriage with Titi Alakija, a Nigerian. The couple separated when Kojo Annan was six years old and divorced two years later. After his parents separated, he lived with his father and spent holidays with his mother and sister. Kojo Annan's second name "Adeyemo" means "the crown befits the child" in Yoruba. Kojo Annan is a maternal grandson of Sir Adeyemo Alakija.
Kojo Annan was educated in Wales at the independent Rydal Preparatory School, and in England, at Rendcomb College, where he excelled as a rugby player and subsequently at Keele University. He was also educated in Switzerland.

## Career

From 1995 to 1997, Kojo Annan worked in West Africa for the Swiss-based inspection company Cotecna, then as a marketing consultant for the company.
In September 1998, Kojo Annan met with several heads of state and government ministers during the opening session of the U.N. General Assembly. In December, Cotecna won a $4.8 million Oil-for-Food contract.
Kojo Annan, Kofi Annan and Cotecna deny that the younger Annan was involved in the Oil-for-Food contract. Kojo Annan also claimed that connections with Cotecna severed after 1998; however, he continued to be paid by the company until February 2004.
The Second Interim Report by the IIC confirmed that Cotecna indeed won the Oil-for-Food contract fairly and based on merit. The Committee concluded that there was no link between Kofi Annan and the award of Cotecna's contract; and Cotecna had been transparent and cooperative through this investigation.
On 13 December 2004, Kojo Annan claimed that the probe into the Oil-for-Food Programme by U.S. congressional committees was "a witchhunt from day one as part of a broader Republican political agenda."
A January 2005 article in The Sunday Times announced that he had confessed involvement in the UN Oil-for-Food Programme scandal; in a libel settlement eleven months later, the paper announced that it now "entirely accepts that the allegation was untrue."
Megadeth's front-man Dave Mustaine, mentioned Kojo Annan in the song "United Abominations", the title track of Megadeth's 2007 studio release. This song, based on the UN, sparked an official retort from the UN on 10 July by Mark Leon Goldberg of the United Nations affairs blog, UN Dispatch, who posted a rebuttal based on the accusations Mustaine made in the song.
In April 2016, he was listed in a leaked confidential document, the Panama Papers, revealing his use of offshore accounts.
Kojo Annan currently holds interest in a number of start-ups and has founded Africa10 in 2016, a social enterprise focusing on the development of African youth through sports and education

## Personal life

In March 2014, it was reported that Kojo Annan had married Shanthi Wilkinson. He has two sons, born 2015 and 2018. He is the son of former UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan and the nephew of Ghanaian diplomat Kobina Annan.

# Commissure

A commissure (/ˈkɒməʃər/) is the location at which two objects abut or are joined. The term is used especially in the fields of anatomy and biology.
* The most common usage of the term refers to the brain's commissures, of which there are at least nine. Such a commissure is a bundle of commissural fibers as a tract that crosses the midline at its level of origin or entry (as opposed to a decussation of fibers that cross obliquely). The nine are the anterior commissure, posterior commissure, corpus callosum, commissure of fornix (hippocampal commissure), habenular commissure, ventral supraoptic decussation, Meynert's commissure, anterior hypothalamic commissure of Gasner, and the interthalamic adhesion. They consist of fibre tracts that connect the two cerebral hemispheres and span the longitudinal fissure. In the spinal cord, there are the anterior white commissure, and the gray commissure. Commissural neurons refer to neuronal cells that grow their axons across the midline of the nervous system within the brain and the spinal cord.
* Commissure also often refers to cardiac anatomy of heart valves. In the heart, a commissure is the area where the valve leaflets abut. When such an abutment is abnormally stiffened or even fused, valvular stenosis results, sometimes requiring commissurotomy.
* The term may also refer to the junction of the upper and lower lips (see labial commissure of mouth).
* It may refer to the junction of the upper and lower mandibles of a bird's beak, or alternately, to the full-length apposition of the closed mandibles, from the corners of the mouth to the tip of the beak.
* It may refer to the nasal and temporal meeting points of the upper and lower eyelids (the medial and lateral canthi).
* In the vulva, the joining points of the two folds of the labia majora create two commissures—the anterior commissure just anterior to the prepuce of the clitoris, and the posterior commissure of the labia majora, directly posterior to the frenulum of the labia minora and anterior to the perineal raphe.
In biology, the meeting of the two valves of a brachiopod or clam is a commissure; in botany, the term is used to denote the place where a fern's laterally expanded vein endings come together in a continuous marginal sorus.

# Oriini Kaipara

Oriini Kaipara (born 1983) is a New Zealand broadcaster, journalist and translator and interpreter of Māori and English. Kaipara has worked for Mai FM, TVNZ 1, Māori Television, and Three.
In 2019 Kaipara was the first person with a moko kauae facial tattoo to present mainstream television news. In 2021 she became the first such person to host a prime-time news programme on national television.

## Early life

Kaipara was born in Whakatāne in 1983. Her iwi are Tūhoe, Ngāti Awa, Tūwharetoa and Ngāti Rangitihi. She attended a Kura Kaupapa Māori, and trained at South Seas Film and Television School in 2002.

## Career

Kaipara was a newsreader at Mai FM, and then in 2004 joined TVNZ's fully te reo Māori Waka Huia as a reporter and director.
In 2017, the Māori Television programme Native Affairs, which she presented, revealed she has essentially pure Māori DNA, despite having some Pākehā ancestry.
She received her moko kauae facial tattoo in January 2019 while she was a journalist for TVNZ's Te Karere. In November 2019 she was the first person with a moko kauae to present mainstream television news on TVNZ's 1News.
In May 2021 she moved to Three and began presenting news on the programme Newshub Live at 4.30pm.
In February 2022 Kaipara joined Simon Shepherd as co-host of Three's weekly political current affairs show Newshub Nation.

## Personal life

Kaipara lives in West Auckland and has four children.
In 2020 Kaipara was upset by a portrait painted of her without permission by Auckland artist Samantha Payne, in which her unique moko kauae was prominently displayed. Moko kauae are considered sacred and commercialisation of them is considered immoral by many Māori. After talking with Kaipara, the artist apologised and removed the portrait from public sale. There was another unauthorised painting made of Kaipara in 2024, with a very similar portrait being sold by a South African-born artist that emphasised her moko kauae. The artist netted $1,200 for the work and refused to apologise or speak to the media. Kaipara described the incident as “profiting off her whakapapa”, and encouraged the artist to donate his earnings to a kohanga reo.
# Paddles (cat)

Paddles (2016 – 7 November 2017) was a ginger and white polydactyl cat, owned by New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and her partner Clarke Gayford. Paddles had a profile on Twitter and in politics as "First Cat".

## Early life

Paddles was a rescue cat, adopted by Ardern from a branch of the SPCA.

## Career

She became a celebrity as the "First Cat" after Ardern took office, and a Twitter account was established in her name. Ardern said that she did not know who created the account.
When U.S. President Donald Trump phoned Ardern to congratulate her for becoming Prime Minister in October 2017, Paddles interrupted the conversation.

## Death

Paddles was run over by a car and killed in the Auckland suburb of Point Chevalier on 7 November 2017.
# Paua House

The Paua House was a tourist attraction in the southern New Zealand town of Bluff, but now on display at the Canterbury Museum in Christchurch.

## History

The Paua House was originally just a standard New Zealand bungalow located at 258 Marine Parade, Bluff. The house was owned by elderly couple Fred and Myrtle Flutey, who built up a massive collection of ornaments and trinkets made from the iridescent shells of the pāua, a New Zealand species of abalone often used for souvenirs and items of kitsch. Over the course of some 40 years, the couple adorned the house with these ornaments, and also with the cleaned shells of pāua found by the Fluteys on the local beach. By the time of the couple's deaths (Myrtle in 2000, Fred on New Year's Eve 2001) the walls of their lounge were covered with over 1,100 shells,
In 1979, New Zealand photographer Robin Morrison visited the house, and included it in his book The South Island of New Zealand From the Road (1981). The house's inclusion in the book helped establish the house as a tourist attraction, and made the owners Fred and Myrtle Flutey local celebrities. The Fluteys were playing host to thousands of visitors per year, with some reports suggesting one million people visited the house during the 37 years that the collection was built up.
When the Fluteys died, the house was purchased by their grandson, Ross Bowen. Despite protests from locals who wished the house to stay in its shelled condition, Bowen loaned the Fluteys' collection to Canterbury Museum in Christchurch on a ten-year loan. Parts of the house were recreated by the museum and opened to the public in 2008. It was seen by some quarter of a million museum visitors in its first two years on display.

## Virtual tour

The house can be viewed in an online virtual tour.

# Quercus humboldtii

Quercus humboldtii, commonly known as the Andean oak, Colombian oak or roble, is a species of oak found only in Colombia and Panama. It is named for Alexander von Humboldt.

## Description

Quercus humboldtii is an evergreen tree which grows to a height of 25 metres (82 feet) and a diameter of 1 m (3 ft 3 in), with buttresses of up to 1 m. Its bark is reddish gray or gray and fissured, breaking into squares and flaking. The leaves are simple, alternate and lanceolate, up to 10–20 centimetres (4–8 inches) long, and clustered at the ends of the branches. The flowers are small, yellow, and unisexual, with a racemic inflorescence. Male flowers are numerous, with long-styled female flowers in a cupula. The fruit is a light brown, ovoid capsule, or acorn, with a leathery pericarp, 20–25 millimetres (3⁄4–1 inch) in diameter and 50–70 mm (2–2+3⁄4 in) long, resting on a scaly cupule. Only one fruit per cupule is developed, and the inside of the acorn shell is woolly.

## Distribution and habitat

It grows in the mountains with an elevational range from 1,000 to 3,200 m (3,300 to 10,500 ft). It is found on all three Colombian Andean mountain ranges and some lowland inter-Andean regions, and in the Serranía del Darién on the border between Panama and Colombia.
The tree grows in the Andean highlands where the mean annual temperature is 16−24 °C, and the mean annual rainfall 1,500–2,500 mm (59–98 in). It can be found in moderately fertile and deep soils as well as in degraded soils, preferring shallow soils with a thick layer of humus. The acorns provide important food for wildlife; two parrots – the rusty-faced parrot and Fuertes's parrot – are endemic to the threatened montane ecosystems of the Colombian Andes and are particularly dependent on the Andean oak forests as a home.
# Smithville (Duluth)

Smithville is a neighborhood in Duluth, Minnesota, United States. Grand Avenue serves as a main route in the community. Stewart Creek flows through the neighborhood, with the Saint Louis River located nearby.
According to the city's official map, Bardon's Peak on West Skyline Parkway is located within the boundaries of the Smithville neighborhood.

## History

Historically, Smithville was the location of Work People's College, a radical labor college launched in 1907 by activists of the Finnish Socialist Federation. This residential school, originally a Finnish religious seminary and general education facility, continued in operation until 1941, during most of which time it was politically close to the syndicalist trade union, the Industrial Workers of the World. The main building was later converted into a residential apartment house.
