Rita Angus, An Artist s
Life
Along with the
works of Colin McCahon and Toss Wollaston, Angus oil and
water colours are considered among the most important in
the development of twentieth-century New Zealand art. She
was a pioneer of modern painting during the 1930s and 1940s
and during the century since her birth works such as
Central Otago (1940) and
Portrait of Betty
Curnow (1941-42) have become national icons. Although
Angus is now one of Aotearoa’s best-loved painters,
the story of her life remained little known and poorly
understood before Jill Trevelyan s acclaimed and revelatory
biography, which won the Non Fiction Award at the Montana

73 of an intake of 1200 cadets at West Point cheat in a calculus online exam. That s 6%.
Wikipedia says Candidates for admission must apply directly to the academy and receive a nomination, usually from a member of Congress. Other nomination sources include the president and vice president ! The academic program grants a bachelor of science degree. Cadets are required to adhere to the Cadet Honor Code, which states that a cadet will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United States Military Academy
The worst scandal in 45 years!
I wonder how many of these cheats debasing university qualifications and heading for high office in the US military were nominated by Republicans, and how many by Democrats?

The conclusion of the article you cite is that …with the spirit of ‘60s utopianism: maybe we should ask not what other countries can do for us, but what we might do for them … And yet – when the alternative is watching with pity and smugness as infection rates rise elsewhere, when nationalism has led us into the binary of winners and losers in a pandemic that affects us all, perhaps that spirit is precisely what we need.
New Zealand will start 2021 with an economic acceleration greater than most other countries in the world. It s a socialist moment because we have been united together in common cause. And it s a conservative moment because we have given up just the minimum degree of temporary freedom in order to gain the greatest liberty.

This is the latest ride on the merry-go-round of legal shit-fuckery that penalises community groups who dare to face off in opposition to the rape and pillage of the environment. Less than a decade ago, voluntary community organisations were able to apply for Government financed grants, now no longer available, when challenging the likes of Councils, big-moneyed developers, international consortiums and Government agencies in respect of environmental concerns. In almost all but the most frivolous of cases, legal costs were never awarded against community groups but left to lie where they may. This was in the interests of justice being seen to be done in both quasi and full legal proceedings that were being tested by those who were committed to upholding the incrementally unfolding joke of ‘A Clean Green New Zealand’ by their works and deeds. Up and down the country, these communities of voluntary environmental workers and supporters of the notion that we are only caretakers of t
