Wonder why anyone in Aotearoa NZ is celebrating RocketLab's US launch in aid of the US military. For his own gain and glory, Peter Beck (I don't see justification for his honourific) betrayed the trust of the kaumātua of Mahia Peninsula and sold us all out to perhaps the least honourable country in the world these days. Here's the story if you haven't already seen it:

Mahia, We Have A Problem
As superstar Kiwi startup Rocket Lab takes on work for the US military, a tiny beach community faces some major moral dilemmas.

Bizarrely warm end of the winter, here in the Netherlands: average temperature in the last part of February (21-28/29) was more than a full degree higher than the previous record set just five years ago:
10.5°C, that's warmer than the already warmed 1991-2020 average for April!
Peak was above 17°C.

Le oui pour l’imposition individuelle a chuté de 24 Š 8 entre le premier et deuxième sondage GfS. Le projet risque de suivre le même sort que la loi CO2 en 2021 et d’être refusé Š l’urne. Tous les partis qui sont pour le projet doivent revenir vers leurs partisans.
Le Centre spécule avec le non pour mettre en avant leur solution avec les impôts Š option. Mais c’est un jeu Š haut risque: leur initiative coûterait tellement cher qu’elle n’arrivera pas Š réunir une majorité. #chvote
