A spearfisherman in Australia is being harshly criticized by the locals for killing Gus the Grouper, a beloved 40-year-old blue fish that had been protected since 1996. The blue grouper, known for being non-aggressive and inquisitive, became the official fish of New South Wales in 1996, when it became protected from spearfishing and commercial enterprise. Tenielle Piek, a local woman, told News.com.au that the “gorgeous bright blue fish” is well known to other divers and swimmers in the area. “Locals were shocked and outraged … My mother was the first person to approach the man requesting to take his photo. He smiled and showed off his killing without realizing it was a protected species and could be fined up to $11,000 for spearing a blue grouper.”The spearfisherman was ultimately fined $537 after being questioned by police.

Photo: Duncan Miller GalleryThousands of photos of Māori life from the early 20th century have been brought back into New Zealand hands by the National Library, after nearly ending up in an American landfill. They were saved by the Duncan Miller Gallery in Los Angeles, which got a call at the final hour in a last-ditch effort to find the photos a home. The gallery's website describes it as "fine art photography gallery specializing in 20th and 21st Century photographic works". The collection of 5300 images of tangata whenua was independently valued at $340,000, but Miller said the National Library had got it for less than that. "On and on, we're just searching for the best possible homes because no one in New Zealand apparently can take this whole collection," Miller said.

Serial Stuff was the original show about the highs and lows of life as a doll, airing three days a week on What Now PM. Much like the Barbie universe, the characters of Serial Stuff lived in a cartoony world of saturated colours, perfect plastic hair and hot pink gingham, but their “real world” adventures were next level. He also remembers the Serial Stuff Story of Christmas, which was a half-hour special featuring Jesus, Mary and Manly Jack as a Roman centurion. “I don’t even know what that means, but it sounds great.”That Christmas special has tragically been lost to the sands of time, like most of Serial Stuff. Sadly, Gunn is quick to crush any hopes that Manly Jack is guarding a secret vault somewhere filled with Serial Stuff classics.

Sebi Woodhouse has expectations from this year. I have several businesses, and 2023 was a tough year. All customers of all my businesses are suffering from inflation and cost of living pressures, whether they are consumers or businesses. I am expecting 2024 to be a better year, hopefully interest rates will drop again and business confidence in the new government will increase again. Although I see interest rates coming down again, I am also concerned about the possibility of a global recession and war spreading to more countries, and that lowering interest rates will lead to inflation again.

Conservation organisation Forest & Bird has sent an open letter to the local councils of New Zealand pleading for stricter regulations about vehicles on beaches around the country. Ultimately, it’s meant the question of cars on beaches has fallen to local authorities, with a mixed bag of results across the country. “We appreciate that on some beaches, vehicles are necessary to access private property, launch boats, gather kaimoana, and for emergency situations,” he said. These included local authorities like Kaipara, Wairoa, Gisborne, Kaikōura and Southland – including Rakiura Stewart Island. The organisation argued that different local authorities handling the issue means arbitrary invisible borders on the coast that don’t take the habitats of coastal wildlife into account.
