Why doesn't anyone want Stephen Drew?
Free agent SS Stephen Drew is 'perfectly healthy,' according to a person familiar with the situation (Bradford, Jan. 7).
Drew's market may be depressed due concerns about his medical report, a team official recently said (Martino, Jan. 7).
The Mets and Red Sox have been most connected to Drew in reports since the Winter Meetings. However, the Mets are reluctant to lock in to Drew beyond 2014 (Cerrone, Jan. 6).
Today, in a post for FanGraphs.com, Jeff Sullivan does a nice job explaining Drew's market, writing:
"Right now, a claim can't be made that a team needs Stephen Drew. He'd help the Red Sox a little, but he'd make a very small impact on their overall chances, so there's no need to pay much for his services. Drew would help the Mets by maybe a win or two, but that might just help them lock up third place in the NL East, trailing the Washington Nationals and Atlanta Braves in some order. That improvement isn't valueless, but the Mets needn't pay market price, since this isn't supposed to be a championship season. And the difference between Drew and Tejada would presumably be smaller in 2015, when Harvey is expected to return."
In a poll on MetsBlog on Jan. 6, 2014, 51 percent — of more than 8,000 voters — said they would give Drew a two-year deal, with only four percent willing to go to a three-year contract.

how do they not love my baby
J10, 10w mc, K7 (lost her twin at 11w), 9w mmc, C4, Twins born 23w1d: ^O^ 1day, E spent 125d NICU stay is thriving at home!! JS 28w2d-60d NICU stay
Is it just a family culture thing? Some people just don't like babies or are awkward around them. I know my Dad has no idea what to do with my baby (she's the first grandchild for him as well) and though he may not be overly expressive but he does love her even if he doesn't really know what to do. Could this be the case with the in-laws?
Liking kids and liking babies are different things. My stepfather has some interaction with my baby that seems very forced. He doesn't like babies, doesn't know what to do with them, and really is more in a place where he's waiting for her to grow up and become "fun." It's irritating for sure but it is what it is. I hope they come around soon because every baby deserves a warm and loving family.

IPS Community Suite 4.1: Preview Available
By CharlesThe next major release for IPS Community Suite 4 is now in the final stages of development. We have added dozens of new features, enhancements to existing features, fixed the majority of 4.0 bugs (bug tracker will be updated soon), and made large performance gains. You can see the full list of items changed in our Release Notes section. Here we will review some of the larger changes and why we did them. New Menu Structure Our new menu structure is designed to highlight the two ways people go about interacting with a community: general browsing of specific discovery. The Browse tab looks just like the current, default menu does in IPS Community Suite with your list of apps. The new Activity menu is designed for discovery features like our new Activity Streams and the search functions. This is just the default menu and gives new communities an idea of the different concepts. When upgrading from 4.0 to 4.1 your existing menu items will be placed in this format with any menu items created under the Pages app moved to a location in the new menu. You will want to adjust things to best fit your community. Menu Manager The Pages menu manger has been removed and replaced with a Suite-wide menu manger that is much more powerful. As shown above, you can now have both a top and second level menu bar. If you choose not to have a second bar it will hide itself automatically and will then look much more like the older menu style. In addition to simply placing menu items, drop down menus, and special links: all menu items have permission controls so you can easily show or hide menu items based on a member's permission settings. Activty Streams The new Activity Streams are a discovery feature that takes the concept of the old View New Content, Activity, Followed Items, etc. and merges them into a unified system to allow for both admin and member-defined streams of content based on their preferences. The system is very powerful and allows for countless different ways for your members to discover content or for you to more easily expose content you want to highlight. Front end interface member created streams
Streams that admins create are always visible to all members. Members can simply view those admin streams, create their own, or copy an admin stream as a base. Guests also have access to view all admin streams excluding those that reference unread or followed content as Guests do not have access to those features. Always available to all members is the All activity stream that shows a list of activity in order by date. The admin can define what shows in the All activity stream. Admin options for All Activity stream
Notifications We have introduced two new notification features: instant notifications and HTML5 browser notifications. Both work together to provide a great boost to engagement in IPS 4.1. HTML5 Browser Notifications We have built in support for browser notifications where they are supported (right now, this includes desktop versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera, but not IE, and mobile browser support is patchy). This allows IPS 4.1 to let you know when important things have happened even if you aren't active in that window at the time. We have enabled browser notifications in three areas. When you upload files using any attachment area, you will be notified when your files have finished uploading; when there are new replies to a topic you have currently viewing; and for instant notifications (more about that below). Instant Notifications Instant notifications has been a long-requested feature, and we are pleased to say they are included in IPS 4.1. We have worked hard to build an approach that is as light on resources as possible. If you are active in the window, instant notifications will show as a standard flash message at the bottom of your screen; if you are not active, and your browser supports them, you will get a desktop notification instead, and a chime will sound to alert you. Clicking the notification box will take you to the new item (or open the notification menu if alert is telling you about multiple items).
Ability to limit the number of emails received In IPS 4.1, you can optionally choose to receive just one email notification per content item until you revisit the community, rather than a separate email for each new reply. This is an option that was previously available in IPB 3.x that we have reintroduced based on feedback. Retina Emoticons Our well-loved emoticons have had a facelift (pun intended) and now look great on high-resolution retina screens and dark backgrounds: The emoticon manager in the ACP intelligently handles retina versions of your own emoticons for you - simply upload emoticons with "@2x" appended to the filename, and IPS 4.1 will know it's a high-res version of an existing emoticon and seamlessly serve it for you. Not Included in 4.1 Areas such as View New Content, My Content, My Followed Content, Status page, and such are replaced by the new Activity Streams. You can easily create the same functionality with admin-created Activity Streams and we ship with several default examples that will serve most communities well.Sphinx is no longer supported as an alternative search engine. We are evaluating alternative search technology for a future release.Obviously we included a lot in version 4.1 so many things were not included. If your specific feature request or feedback was not included it may still come in a future release. Launch Date We invite everyone to check our our public preview and give it a try! Please report bugs in our bug tracker and keep all discussion about 4.1 on the preview site so we can easily review it and make changes. Depending on testing, we do anticipate a release in early October. We hope you enjoy all these changes in 4.1 and that they help your community grow!

IPS Community in the Cloud
By Lindy,We are thrilled with the response to the latest generation of our community platform, IPS4 and hope you have been following the exciting progress and enhancements with IPS4.1.I'd like to take this opportunity to highlight IPS' Community in the Cloud service. IPS provides hosted/cloud service to thousands of communities and because we built the software and we limit our service exclusively to our software, we're able to tailor and optimize our environment specifically for our products. This leads to an efficient, well supported, turnkey solution with a one-stop provider. There's no waiting as you ask your host to review error logs, make potential configuration changes, repair database tables because a server was improperly shut down or the database ran out of room to expand or update outdated software to comply with the latest requirements. In the unlikely event you have an issue with your community and we don't already know about it, we will have all of the tools and access required to take care of it with minimal, if any inconvenience to you.If you've previously considered our CiC packages but have hesitated due to disk space constraints, we're pleased to announce that we have made significant enhancements to our offerings, including doubling the storage capacity on most packages. Whether you're an existing or prospective client, please take a few minutes to review our offerings on our website.Here are a few of our more Frequently Asked Questions regarding our CiC service:Do I have to pay for each application separately?On all but our Standard 25 package, all IPS applications are included. Starting at $30/mo., you get nearly $500 worth of software wrapped up in a turnkey cloud-based solution.What happens if I exceed my "online visitor" allotment?Online visitors are determined based on the number of people simultaneously active on your community within a 15 minute window. This is not a hard limit, so if you are on, for example, the Super 65 package and you have 100 online visitors for an hour, there will be no change or overage. If, however, your average online visitor count exceeds the package amount for several days consistently within a billing cycle, you would be automatically upgraded to the next package. You can then downgrade after the next billing cycle if your activity levels have decreased.Can I install modifications and themes?Yes! You may install virtually all applications, plugins and themes from the IPS Marketplace.I'm already an IPS self-hosted client, can I move to your CiC service?We're asked this daily and the answer is, absolutely. In fact, we will move your entire community to our CiC service at no charge to you and will work to make the transition as smooth as possible for you and your users. We can then deactivate your self-hosted license so you're no longer paying renewals and should you decide to make use of it in the future, it will be as simple as reactivating.What happens if I want to leave the CiC service and self-host?That doesn't happen often, but your data is just that - yours. We do not charge you to provide a copy of your database and attachments upon request. You would need to purchase a self-hosted license to obtain the files that power the community in a self-hosted environment.Can I use my own domain name?Yes. Initially, you will need to choose an IPS provided subdomain (eg. my community.invisionzone.com) - after your community is activated, we can switch it to your own domain.As always, please don't hesitate to contact email@example.com with any questions.No matter how you choose to use IPS4, we appreciate your business!

#3 Mar 26, 2009
I heard they laid off all of 3rd shift last night at Polyone.
#4 Mar 26, 2009

United States
#5 Mar 26, 2009
I will be praying for them....hope it doesn't last long.
#6 Mar 26, 2009
Didn't they jut layoff around Christmas time?
#7 Mar 26, 2009
There were 25 hourly employees that were cut - Poly One claims it to be due to the lack of work.
Good Luck to all of them - hope they will be ok.
#8 Mar 26, 2009
Don't worry, Someone in China will pick up the slack.
#9 Mar 26, 2009
polyone only gonna have 8 ppl left on 3rd shift. dunno bout the rest. excel is suppose to layoff 250 by may, and they only have bout 275 workin there now
#10 Mar 27, 2009
yeah we can all thank Tim Duggan for Excell laying ppl off took all the tire compounds and the money making compounds and moved them to Jonesbourgh Tn. He been wanting to close this plant down for a while. As for Poly One there was 30 that got it.
#11 Mar 27, 2009
they are always laying off hourly employees but never salary tere is not alot of people left so why do u need so many supervisors 2 and 3 on each shift as well as made up salary jobs tat they didnt need. so much under handed stuff goes on at polyone that it is sad. i hate to see anybody loose their job but they always go after hourly even to cut cost when all they would have to do is stop making up salary jobs for their friends. its a buddy system at polyone. j.e. doesnt need to be over production because u need a person with a back bone and he is nothing but a spineles wimp.corp. need to wake up if they want polyone to make it get rid of the riff raff they did not go by qualifacations or senority just by j.e input which is bs take from some one who know and went through all the bull cramp that goes on at that plant
United States
#12 Mar 27, 2009
I just heard this morning at the bank that one of them was closing? Does anyone know for sure? I hate it for the people that work there and for the economy in Dyersburg.
United States
#13 Mar 27, 2009
wonder why they didn't cut the supervisor that has a prison back ground ??????????
United States
#14 Mar 27, 2009
Tim Dunigan is a a$$
United States
#15 Mar 27, 2009
which has a prison background? do tell
#16 Mar 27, 2009
WE need help in Dyersburg Tn
#17 Mar 27, 2009
they also gave some salary supervisors the option to go back on the floor while cutting hourly jobs what kind of horse shit is that.for all those that dont know that is a prime example of the poyone way. IF U NOT IN THE CLICK U NOT SHIT TO THEM. this is some of the underhanded stuff the employee had to put up with and worse than that
#18 Mar 27, 2009
So let me understand what your saying! They laid off production employee's and put salary employee's in there spots. I'll say it once and i'll say it again, J.Eison is a worthless no good for nothing manager. that is one of the gutless,backstabing,excuse of a person. He will get what's coming to him one of these days. That MOTHER F$$ker has stepped on to many toes. somebody will slap his head straight one of these days, just for the way he treats people. you don't treat people like shit and always get away with it.
#19 Mar 27, 2009
Anybody who would bash J.E. has got to be a real fool. If everyone there had J.E.'s work ethic and character, P1 Dyersburg would indeed move in the right direction. It's usually a sorry good for nothing employee who chooses to bash management. I got out of there years ago to move on down the road because Dyersburg (the town) was ran by some folks who refused to give other potential employers a chance. Colonial, Dyersburg Fabrics and Hecko, chose to keep the town the poor s*hole that it is today! Dyersburg, Look where you are now because of greed.
I hope Dyersburg learns from the past. The economy there could be a lot different today, if it weren't for greedy decisions in the early '80's.
#20 Mar 27, 2009
Most Companys lay off by seniority. Polyone lays off by the least suck a&&es go first.I feel sorry for the one employee that I know that had got another job somewhere but on his exit interview J.E begged him to stay at Polyone. He wound up turning down the other job he had and guess what they did to him. Cut him!!!!
That tells you how sorry J.E. and all the management at Polyone is.

Some of the top destinations on my must-travel list are Australia, Egypt, Spain, Alaska, Scotland, and pretty much all over Asia. I prefer nature to cities when I travel though I do love both. I am a very avid biker and enjoy touring when I am able to have the time. I love to eat.

From Experience Life
Ever wonder what goes into making a chicken nugget? And ever wonder why they're so easy to eat (and eat and eat)? Here's more than you probably wanted to know:
- BITE-SIZE: Before breading, the gelatinous meat product is squeezed into a casing and cooked. After it cools, the casing is sliced into uniform nugget-sized discs, making them that much easier to pop into your mouth (no silverware required — and hey, those nuggets are so small, it's like you're hardly eating anything, right?).
- "PRECHEWED" MEAT: Assorted pieces of chicken meat are finely chopped to free myofibrillar proteins that act as "glue" to bind the bits of meat together. Texture-enhancing binders (such as breading or powdered egg white) are added to help create a "gelling" effect that gives the nuggets shape. Flavors, natural and artificial, are mixed in. So are ingredients that hold in moisture, such as sodium phosphate, soy protein concentrate and autolyzed yeast extract. The net effect? A boneless, prechewed quality that produces a smooth and even bolus in your mouth and that invites overeating.
- WHITE-ISH MEAT: It could be white meat — or it could be dark meat (about a third of the cost of white meat) that has been whitened with the use of whey protein concentrate and whey protein isolate. Although dark meat is often more flavorful, white meat apparently looks more uniform and more appealing to American eyes. As one industry document puts it, "American consumers have expressed a strong preference for poultry white meat over dark meat due to color. Turning dark meat into white could open new markets and revenue sources."

Hospital De Faro: Hospital Improves Operations and Patient Care, Establishing Powerful BI Capabilities
Download Now
Date Added: Jun 2010
Format: HTML
With 2,300 employees, Hospital de Faro serves half a million citizens in Faro, Portugal. Relying on multiple disparate systems, hospital employees lacked holistic insight into patient and operational data. To solve this, the hospital opted to undergo a far-reaching Business Intelligence (BI) initiative and teamed with Microsoft Services to drive such an effort forward. Since establishing the new BI solution, the hospital has seen considerable improvements, enabling it to exceed patient care targets, understand and respond to issues, and transform the role of IT from that of support to that of a strategic resource.

About ants...
Like all insects, ants have six legs. The legs of the ant are very strong so they can run very quickly. If a man could run as fast for his size as an ant can, he could run as fast as a racehorse. Ants can lift 20 times their own body weight.
Use lightly sketched pencil lines first for the structure. After, use a pen to draw in the final lines. When you're finished, erase the underlying pencil lines to reveal your drawing. Then - color it!
Let's draw! Follow step by step our easy indications below!
Color your ant in red or black or with the colors of your imagination.

Upcoming AK Press fundraiser in Wellington - 26 September
A fundraising celebration of radical and independent publishing in Aotearoa New Zealand and beyond!
AK Press is a worker-run, collectively managed anarchist publishing and distribution company, in operation since 1990. On March 21st of this year, a fire in a building behind AK's caught fire and the fire spread to AK's warehouse. Two people living in the building died in the fire, much of AK's inventory was damaged by water and smoke, and the city has deemed their building uninhabitable. While they have suffered a major blow they are carrying on and continue to publish and distribute anarchist and radical literature around the world, including to Aotearoa New Zealand. But they need all the help they can get and all money raised at this event will go directly to their fire relief fund.

Lines of Work: Stories of Jobs and Resistance (review)
Lines of Work: Stories of Jobs and Resistance
By Scott Nikolas Nappalos, ed. (Alberta, Canada: Black Cat Press, 2013)
Review by Jared Davidson, first published in LHP Bulletin 64.
Lines of Work is a fascinating, at times bleak and emotive volume of stories about work and its effect on our lives. How fitting then, that my review copy was waiting for me after my usual 20-minute trip home from work had stretched to four hours, thanks to the flooding in Wellington of 14 May 2015. Work (with a little help from the weather) had kept me away from my loved ones even more than it already does on a day-to-day basis. That period after clocking out was clearly not my own time, but that of capital.
The thirty-two stories in Lines Of Work explore similar examples of contemporary working life. It brings together texts originally published on "Recomposition", an online publication run by a collective of worker radicals based in the US and Canada. Written between 2009 and 2011, we hear from a range of people in various jobs, including non-profit organisations (which are no different from the rest). The writers are not professionals, and rightly so—the purpose of Lines of Work stems from a desire to link and explore the everyday experiences of people who work as an organising tool. As we know, "the personal is political", and Lines of Work is an example of a radical praxis that supports the power of discourse without drifting into a Foucauldian abyss.
"In the eyes of dominant culture and the opinions of political culture" writes editor Scott Nappalos in the Introduction, "stories play second fiddle. In political life, literature is at best an emotional tool for theory, something to motivate people around a cause or worse, simply pure entertainment." Yet "looking at stories in that way is out of step with working life. The lives of working-class people are filled with stories people share every day about their struggles, perspectives, and aspirations" (p.1).
With this in mind, Lines of Work asks us to take a serious look at the way stories can help us build a better society. "There is something powerful in the process of someone who participates in struggle finding a voice to their experiences… reframing the role of stories requires us seeing this process as both part of being an active participant in social struggles, and as a way to participate" (p.2). In doing so a transformation can occur, opening "up space for deeper work" (p.2). Stories about work should be seen "not only for their beauty, tragedy, and motivating power in our lives, but also as a reflection of workers grappling with their world and creating new currents of counter-power autonomous from the dominance of capital and the State" (p.7). Stories of work, therefore, are a "part of workers' activity to understand and change their lot under capitalism… through storytelling, [the stories] draw out the lessons of workplace woes, offering new paths and perspectives for social change and a new world" (blurb).
As another reviewer has pointed out, "a good amount of these jobs—finance, food service, clerical work, manufacturing bullets for imperialist wars—are not the seeds of a future society but a blight on the present one. There is no straight line from these jobs to a libertarian communist society, nor are most of them (except for the bullet factory, really), strategic 'choke points' of capital, as the present theories of circulation dictates that we seek out. A revolutionary struggle would be waged to eliminate these jobs, not to make them cooperative". Yet this is not necesarily the point of the book. While it may lack the "what next" element some readers crave, Lines of Work is a welcome addition to the subjective aspect of working-class experience that is often missing from theoretical accounts of struggle.
In Lines of Work, the stories are organised into three sections: resistance, time, and sleep. The theme of "resistance" "gives accounts of trying to correct problems at work, and collective lessons that came out of those struggles" (p.7). What struck me about this section was the arbitrariness that so many workers have to deal with in their day-to-day work, from not being allowed to celebrate birthdays to managerial changes to a roster. These are not tales of general strikes or historic moments, but stories of little struggles: of the mundane yet important tasks that can either foster resistance or keep a workforce down. Some victories are shared, but so are many losses and regrets at what happened, or what could have been done differently.
"Time" was my favourite section and the largest in the book. It covers "the world of work, in all that it demands and takes from us" (p.7). What this means is spelled out in rare, intimate detail, and in a way that instantly resonates (well, for me at least). Travel to and from work, repetitive on-the-job tasks, shitty customers, shitty bosses, sexism and difficult workplace conversations, racism, identity, class, job control, poor health, despair—are explored across workplaces totally different yet unsurprisingly the same. I light-heartedly explained this to a friend as "the commonalities of crappiness". But in all seriousness, what is great about this book is how the stories connect the common elements of working life, and place our own experiences of work into an international context.
The section titled "Sleep and Dreams" shares examples of how capital invades what is supposedly our "own" time: our sleep. Who hasn't dreamed about work? Had a nightmare of turning up to work a job they quit years ago? "Awaking from a work dream only to find one's work day only beginning is perhaps one of the banal horrors shared most widely by the entire worldwide proletariat". These stories of dreams and (lack of) sleep are sad yet fascinating in their own right. But the underlining idea of un-free time and the reproduction of capital (in the form of what we do in between clocking out and signing in) is a strong critique of work as a separate activity of life—of alienation. It is the perfect way to end an engaging and highly readable expose of contemporary working life, and how unnatural the wage relation truly is.

Lunchtime talk - Censored Letters of the First World War
|AD1 Box 771/ 23-8 Archives New Zealand Te Rua Mahara o te Kāwanatanga, Wellington Office
For those in Wellington, I'd like to invite you to my free lunchtime talk at the National Library on Tuesday July 28.
Seeing Red: Censored Letters of the First World War
A lunchtime talk at the National Library corner Aitken and Molesworth Streets, Thorndon
Tuesday 28 July 12.10pm – 1.00pm
From the outbreak of the First World War until November 1920, the private letters of mothers, lovers, internees and workmates were subject to a strict censorship. A team of diligent readers in post offices across the country poured over pounds and pounds of mail. Some were stamped and sent on; others made their way into the hands of Police Commissioners. In an era when post was paramount, the wartime censorship of correspondence heralded the largest state invasion of private life in New Zealand's history.
Using a unique, little-used collection of censored letters at Archives New Zealand (the Army's 'Secret Registry') I hope to offer a fascinating insight into postal censorship, state attitudes toward dissent, and the New Zealand home front during the First World War.
Please RSVP to firstname.lastname@example.com with 'Seeing Red' in the subject line.
Hope to see you there!

The Colonial Continuum: Archives, Access, and Power
My paper from Archifacts: Journal of the Archives and Records Association of New Zealand, April 2015. Many thanks to Julie Black, Kim McBreen and Hinerangi Himiona for their input and support.You can download a PDF version here.
Abstract: As Ann Laura Stoler notes, "what constitutes the archive, what form it takes, and what systems of classification and epistemology signal at specific times are (and reflect) critical features of colonial politics and state power." These forms and systems determine what records are discovered, how they are accessed, and the experience of the user.
Drawing on work with Māori/iwi/hapū groups, this paper addresses settler colonialism and its continuing impact on records creation, archival access, and knowledge production. It argues that archivists should address the way our institutions are organized (both spatially and structurally), and our obligations under te Tiriti o Waitangi.
The use of public records is at the heart of my job as an archivist. I view myself as a facilitator of cultural production, someone who aids the accessing of stories in order to weave new narratives (including counter-narratives). But this image of myself is constantly challenged in my day-to-day practice. As an archivist working with government records, my relationship with the user is immediately complex: I become the personification of the state.i As a Pākehā archivist working with government records that document settler colonialism in its many forms—dispossession, theft, cultural suppression, sexism, murder—I become something more specific. Whether I like it or not, in my role and in relation to Māori researchers, I embody settler colonialism.
I am challenged by this idea, and feel uncomfortable that I may be seen as a gatekeeper to stolen knowledge—literally the person between the researcher and their tūpuna. Both the physical space of institutions, and the process of accessing records, does little to damper the perception that I serve the government of past and present. In the words of Sue McKemmish, "the very form of the archive provides evidence of the power relationships and social values of the society that produced it, including the prevailing evidentiary paradigm."ii
If we are to shake off what colonial dust we can within current social and economic limitations, then questions relating to settler colonialism, records creation, archival access, and knowledge production need to be addressed. While I touch on these topics below, and highlight possible organizational models based on tikanga Māori and te Tiriti o Waitangi, my polemic does not pretend to cover them in any detail. Rather, it forms part of a wider constitutional discussion taking place outside of the archive—one I think archivists could and should be participating in.
Settler colonialism
Settler colonialism is "a process in which colons emigrate(d) with the express purposes of territorial occupation and the formation of a new community."iii Rather than just the extraction of labour or resources (although this is still a feature), these new communities settle on land already occupied by indigenous peoples. Through various means, some more insidious than others, land and sovereignty was (and is) taken from these peoples for the benefit of settler communities.iv As Edward Cavanagh and Lorenzo Veracini note, "settler colonialism is a global and transnational phenomenon, and as much a thing of the past as a thing of the present." There is no such thing as post-colonialism, they argue, because settler colonialism—and the white supremacist, patriarchal capitalism that drives it—"is a resilient formation that rarely ends."v
The effects of settler colonialism on indigenous peoples have been felt in every aspect of their spiritual and material lives. In her excellent paper on the tapu of taonga, Kim Mcbreen notes how colonialism attempts "to destroy the structures of Māori society including mātauranga Māori, and the tikanga based on it."vi Not only does it impose "western authority over indigenous lands, indigenous modes of production and indigenous law and government, but the imposition of western authority over all aspects of indigenous knowledge's, languages and cultures."vii As Waziyatawin, a Minnesota professor and activist, writes:
Colonialism is the massive fog that has clouded our imaginations regarding who we could be, excised our memories of who we once were, and numbed our understanding of our current existence. Colonialism is the force that disallows us from recognizing its confines while at the same time limiting our vision of possibilities. Colonialism is the farce that compels us to feel gratitude for small concessions while our fundamental freedoms are denied. Colonialism has set the parameters of our imaginations to constrain our vision of what is possible.viii
Because of this, indigenous peoples have struggled in various ways against settler colonialism. For some this entails a radical social shift, one that dismantles the entire colonial system, decentralizes power, and reestablishes the sovereignty of indigenous peoples. Without this, any repatriation of land or principles of partnership fall short of meaningful change. Glen Sean Coulthard (Yellowknives Dene) argues forcibly that "accommodation of cultural differences, and even transfers of land, can be accepted by the state so long as the power relationship remains intact and the capitalist system animating it remains unquestioned... accepting these offers of recognition has only meant the continued dispossession of our homelands."ix
The colonial continuum and issues of access
This is not the place to assess the Aotearoa experience with regard to decolonization or tino rangatiratanga. But with the ongoing settlement of claims relating to te Tiriti o Waitangi, more and more iwi and hapū are visiting archives for cultural redress. With this comes the very real issue of access. Writing of her work with an indigenous community in northern Australia, activist and intellectual property scholar Jane Anderson posits this challenge:
Imagine that members of the community have grown tired of having to travel for several days in order to see any documentation about the community. They have grown tired of people turning up with documents and information that they didn't know existed. They have grown tired of being told their own history by non- indigenous people with greater access to archives in metropolitan centres. They have grown frustrated at not being able to control the circulation of the knowledge held within documents that they have not been given time to assess; that they do not own.x
My cultural biases may cloud my experience of iwi visits, but a recent example is telling. On the surface there is excitement at the prospect of accessing their stories as viewed and documented by the state. It is acknowledged that the collection is important, sacred, and one that must be cared for. But the colonial context and history that led to the creation of the records is always present. "The colonial collecting endeavor was not innocent," argues Anderson. "It had intent, it had effects and it has remaining consequences."xi For example, when showing a deed of purchase for a large tract of land to one researcher, I could feel the anger and emotion the record stirred. And there is every right to be angry—both at the undoing of indigenous sovereignty, and the fact that to access an account of that undoing has to be through a Pākehā intermediary, through a Pākehā finding aid and system of organization, and inside a Pākehā institution.
We cannot change the past; nor should we abandon core archival principles that help illuminate it. But as Ann Laura Stoler notes, "what constitutes the archive, what form it takes, and what systems of classification and epistemology signal at specific times are (and reflect) critical features of colonial politics and state power."xii This relates as much to current practice as it does to the past.
The issue of colonial power manifests itself in other ways. Research shows that monocultural spaces such as government buildings can act as a barrier to access. A survey conducted by Auckland Libraries found that nearly a third of Māori participants reported feelings of discomfort, while my own research into non-users found that participants interviewed felt some form of institutional anxiety.xiii Such anxiety will always likely to be present for Māori until they see their culture reflected in public institutions; until information systems and spaces are truly "based on the philosophies or belief systems of iwi."xiv Yet according to Luqman Hayes' 2012 study, there was "scant evidence that kaupapa Māori, mātauranga Māori and Te Ao Māori form part of a formalized bicultural strategy within small and medium (that is, level two and three) public libraries in New Zealand."xv That libraries are still ahead of archives in this area is revealing.
Records creation and the ownership of knowledge
The question of access leads on to records creation and the ownership of knowledge, especially indigenous knowledge. Anderson writes of colonial law being the "archon of the archive." It governs the collection and ensures indigenous peoples, as the 'subjects' of records, are "not recognized as having legal rights as 'authors', 'artists' or 'owners'. Simply, and literally, they did not 'make' the record."xvi This paradigm of colonial control has "ongoing legacies in archives where indigenous people still have to mount arguments for why they also have rights to access, to copy and to control material that documents and records their lives and cultures in intimate detail."xvii
Some may argue that according to the Public Records Act the records are 'theirs', in that the collection exists as a cultural memory accessible to anyone. They are, after all, public records. But this says nothing of power dynamics and the many barriers to access, let alone non-western understandings of knowledge and ownership. As one participant in my research argued, western paradigms, coupled with socio-economic factors, would prevent many like him from accessing archives. "There are all sorts of ways that people are disenfranchised from accessing information," he said, "whether that's various kinds of literacy i.e. the most basic literacy, or literacy on the level of being able to filter and understand the particular languages that are used by officialdom." There was also the "emotional reality of being disenfranchised—what's your motivation to access information and know about the particulars of your disenfranchisement if you don't have hope for things being different?"xviii
To paraphrase Anderson and Stoler, the colonial continuum reveals and reproduces the power of the state. At its most basic level, it determines what records are discovered and accessed. For example, the iwi researcher could not understand why the deed, which contained many names of family signatories and sites of immense importance, were not listed in the finding aid. Why, he could have asked, was a detailed series description on the government agency that created the record available, but nothing existed on the other party? Were not the Māori signatories equal creators of the record, equal predecessor agencies? Where was the metadata that he could search, that he could relate to? Adding intuitive metadata for Māori to existing records is just one small way of unsettling such power. An EDRMS based on mātauranga Māori would be another way to future-proof intuitive access.
Tikanga Māori and te Tiriti o Waitangi
If we are to remain custodians of documented interaction with tangata whenua, then we have a responsibility to continue changes in the archival profession. The way our institutions are organized (both spatially and structurally), and the way we approach knowledge production, need to be governed with those whose land our archives possess. In doing so we acknowledge that Māori, in signing te Tiriti o Waitangi (and not the English 'version') never ceded their sovereignty. In doing so we acknowledge that tikanga was the first law of Aotearoa, and that it has a place outside of policy documents or powhiri.
According to Moana Jackson, "tikanga has been diminished and constrained by the labels of colonization... tikanga has been transformed from its expanding site of freedom and political sovereignty into a subordinate place of ceremony."xix Ani Mikaere writes how this elaborate system of balance and regulation "was ensured through the exercise of rangatiratanga, which was 'a total political authority'. Importantly," she notes, "both the Declaration of Independence and te Tiriti o Waitangi that followed it reaffirmed that authority."xx If we are to acknowledge te Tiriti as understood and documented in te reo Māori, then tikanga Māori and its political framework cannot be divorced from it.
This is not a matter of 'special treatment'. Nor is it the imposition of the past actions of others onto future generations. It is the recognition that unlike Pakeha or other cultural groups that make up Aotearoa, "Māori are tangata whenua—Māori culture, history and language have no other home."xxi Sven Lindqvist in Terra Nullius reminds us that as beneficiaries of settler colonialism, Pākehā have no right to disown the dirtier aspects of our past: "I'd had my share of the booty, so I had to take my share of the responsibility, too."xxii
With this responsibility comes a unique opportunity—one that could inform others the world over. Recent debates around constitutional reform show us that sincere, Tiriti-based models of governance and organization are available. A long-standing example is the Raukawa-Mihinare Model. This decision-making structure consists of three houses:
Tikanga Māori House: where the Māori partners plan and prepare their proposals
Tikanga Pākehā House: where the Pākehā partners plan and prepare their submissions
Two-Tikanga (or Tiriti o Waitangi) House: where a council of representatives of the two tikanga houses consider individual and joint proposals against a set of criteriaxxiii
According to this structure, all proposals are tested against te Tiriti o Waitangi, and decision making within both the Māori and the Two-Tikanga house is by consensus.xxiv
One organization that has formally adopted and adapted this framework is the NZ Playcentre Federation. It is also governed at a national level by the Raukawa-Mihinare model. Decisions made by Te Whare Tikanga Māori and Tangata Tiriti House are brought together and then celebrated in Te Wa o Rongo, The Treaty of Waitangi House. In the words of Rachelle Hautapu, "we have said yes to the opportunity to show Aotearoa New Zealand what a Tiriti based partnership can look like, to demonstrate how we can preserve the mana of both Māori and Pākehā in ways that are authentic and meaningful."xxv
This model had already been extended to the GLAM sector. Whatarangi Winiata from Te Wānanga o Raukawa talks of the relationship between a Māori worldview and the organization of their library, and the development of a kaupapa-tikanga framework.xxvi Winiata gives examples of how this works in practice:
Other examples exist, such as that used by The Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia (which has their own tikanga house model). The Independent Iwi Constitutional Working Group, convened by Professor Margaret Mutu and chaired by Moana Jackson, has also been developing a constitutional model based on tikanga Māori, He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Niu Tireni (1835), and te Tiriti o Waitangi. The United Nations Declaration of the Rights of Indigenous Peoples is core to their work.xxvii
In conclusion, there are past and present examples of how our institutions could be organised differently, as well as future opportunities not yet developed. A wider conversation is needed to see how an archival model could be implemented; one that is beyond the scope of this short text. Nonetheless, I want to end by echoing the words of Ani Mikaere: the recognition of tikanga Māori as the first law of Aotearoa need not be a cause for alarm. As Pākehā, confronting our past and our colonialism "might prove liberating."xxviii Acknowledging tikanga Māori and the overriding authority of tino rangatiratanga that was reaffirmed in 1840 allows us to create a meaningful Tiriti relationship, one that carries the seeds of a fruitful future.xxix While extra metadata and the recognition of tikanga in the archive falls short of decolonization, it goes some way to address the promises made by the Crown. By honoring such promises, we honor the importance of our collection, our collective past, and our future users.
i. Given that the state is an abstract way of defining social relationships between people, it's not technically correct for me to say that I personify it. More fitting would be that my relationship with the user becomes 'statist', but I didn't want to bore with ultra-left semantics in the first paragraph.

Yes, made similar points when I voted against conducting a survey.
Asking voters to tax property owners with a parcel tax fee or worse ( instead of rental developers paying housing impact fees for their development) would mandate property owners to pay a fee that is usually paid by developers.
I agree a new BMR ordinance for affordable housing is needed to comply to new state specifications.
Don't miss out on the discussion!
