Diverting roadways because a taniwha supposedly lives there, kind of stuff. The mythology parts of it are what scientists seem to mostly object to. The difficulty we seem to get into is that much of it is wrapped within Māori folklore & atua stories as a way of ensuring it was remembered and respected. Other sciences seem to me to be basically observational studies & analysis, & on that score matauranga Māori is based on observational science every bit as much as other earth sciences are. On this wider theme you may enjoy this essay, that's energetically expressive – if a tad unhinged :īut beyond that more obvious stuff is the way the wasp venom of indulgence conflates and blunts the capacity to tell the difference between 'discrimination' and critical discernment, 'humanity' and narcissism, 'dignity' and caricature, ‘rights’ and entitlements, 'inclusion' and opportunistic colonization, ‘humanistic compassion’ and an indiscriminate soft touch, ‘freedom’ and disinhibited life without boundaries, ‘authoritarianism’ and firmness, ‘justice’ and sectional interest, 'fairness', special pleading and excuse making, ‘tolerance’ and indulgence, ‘respect’ and unjustified regard, ‘compromise’ and being compromised, 'flexibility’ and weakness, ‘concern for ‘the value of human life’ and cowardice, ‘dissent’ and treason, ‘repression’ and discipline, ‘assault’ and chastisement, ‘abuse’ and toughness, and 'violence' and the legitimate use of force.īasically what we like to call “pure science” is physics & chemistry + mathematics. It's perfectly possible to value and respect both bodies of knowledge, without the completely failing to distinguish between the two. But it was not until the scientific revolution formalised strutures of hypothesis, experiment and evidence, that individuals like Kirchoff and Maxwell could transform our knowledge of electricity into the universal, world changing tool it has become. It was an observational knowledge that appears in fragmentary archeological records. In most instances it was often sophisticated and complex in detail, but usually framed in mythological or superstitious terms that constrained it's usefulness.Īs an example – for millennia various isolated individuals understood and worked with the rudiments of electric charge and batteries. Of course.Īll pre-industrial societies survived on a body of 'observational knowledge', handed from generation to generation. I look forward to JC producing an analysis of cutting-edge tech trends with serious political implications. "Judith has a real passion for the portfolio she's been offered there … She cares very deeply about it," said Luxon, unconvincingly. Judith Collins drops 18 rungs to 19th, and she gets – checks notes – research, science, innovation and technology. The new leader had promised to involve them in significant spots. Kind of him to retain the deadwood though, eh? Kindness is trendy.Īccording to my data journalism division, more than 21 per cent of the current National caucus either is now or has been the leader or deputy leader of the party.ĭata journalism, eh? Swordfish take note! I guess we could call this subgroup of their caucus the rotating leadership cabal. Sending these guys a message to stop fizzing and go bang.
#MANOWAR WARRIORS OF THE WORLD UNITE TAS SKIN#
Another staunch Collins supporter, David Bennett, hangs on to the shadow cabinet by the skin of his teeth, coming in nine places lower at No 20, losing transport, where he's been mostly invisible, and gaining regional economic development. Bayly's double-act with Michael Woodhouse was a total fizzer the former finance spokesperson is left clinging on to a top-20 role, down 14 to 18th.

Obviously Luxon noticed.Īfter a short stint in the nebulous role of shadow treasurer, Collins ally Andrew Bayly falls 12 spots to 15, but has a grab-bag of significant roles including small business, manufacturing, commerce and revenue.

Only if you haven't noticed the intensity of his prolonged attempt to hunt down & surpass Hilary Clinton's track record (longest prominent political career whilst never saying anything intelligent). He has trade and tourism, however, which makes his unranked status puzzling. Todd McClay plummets from sixth in Collins' last shadow cabinet to the swirl of the unranked. I wonder how many readers will have to look it up? Oft featuring in popular psychology books & cultural analyses, it not only has a wiki but also its own website: (Disappointingly, she has not been given Corrections, meaning that the "Stanford prison experiment" headline must be saved for another day.) She jumps 18 rungs to No 7, and adds education to the immigration role in which she has proved tenacious and conscientious. The biggest surge, however, is Erica Stanford.
