The New Zealand government has paid the Samoan government $6 million in compensation following the sinking of the HMNZS Manawanui. Today marks a year since the New Zealand Navy ship hit the Tafitoala reef off the south coast of Upolu and sank, damaging 5000 square metres of the reef and spilling 200 thousand litres of diesel and oil. For six months locals in nearby villages were unable to gather seafood in their usual fishing grounds and they say the fish have still not returned. Local businesses and a leading marine scientist say communication has been scarce since the sinking and there are concerns about the vessel being left on the reef 35 metres below the surface. Louise Ternouth reports.

Nothing like learning of a friend's avoidable death, and seeing the devastation it creates in other people lives that were close to him.What I'm referring to is that I Lost a friend to covid these last few weeks… just when we all thought the worst of it had past us by.Like the last soldier to die in a war after the end of the hostilities, but before it was declared officially over.He had all of the ‘co-morbidities' big time in addition to having ethnic pre-dispostion to obesity and diabetes by being Samoan. He lived in a different context of life from mine, followed a different ‘norm' and now was leaving a different legacy as well. At 49, 5 kids, loving wife, the virus found him.I write this here, now, because spreading the knowledge of metabolic health (which is really what this FB group is) is NOT a FAD but life saving information, should you choose to use it. It really isIt is on our shoulders to become healthier and to teach, show, our children and friends that it is possible and it a value worth striving for … forever. My hope is that you never see ‘Keto' as a fad to lose weight only. It is so much more than that.Life, is something which we have a personal responsibility to appreciate, respect, and, learn how to be better for ourselves.

Beyond the Bad Trip: Psychedelics, Myth, and the Rediscovery of Spiritual HealthTalking with Dr. Thomas Cook, psychiatrist, writer, on navigating the crossroads science, spirituality, and myth. On psychedelics (“bad trips”) as way markers back to the natural state, as tools for dissolving the walls of modern state, on genuine religious connection. On depression ego inward-facing, a comforting puppet show of self-talk, and the bad trip as its opposite: a shattering, outward-facing vision that shocks us back into relationship with the world.On the modern epidemic of skepticism, rationalism, and invisibility, and how psychedelics remove the Ring of Power to return us to childlike awe, returning us to visible beings once again. On demons, entities, and Tolkien's Sauron as metaphors for the hidden darkness we deny. On Christianity, paganism, and the rediscovery of primal virtues through psychedelic experience.On the failures of the pharmacological model of psychiatry and the limits of mainstream science, on folk medicine and scientific humility, on microdosing and sacredness, and on building a moral framework sturdy enough to contain powerful experiences. On the value of different tools, on the dangers and risks of psychedelics, on other ways. On madness as non ego. On introjection, on family as the root of culture, broken homes as the source of modern illness, on monogamy, jealousy, and the natural laws embedded in the human soul.A conversation discussing Dr Cook's latest essay on “The Benefits of Bad Trips”, on psychological surgery, psychedelics as spiritual compasses and tools to reconnect with awe..Dr Cook's Essay: The Benefits of a Bad Triphttps://beyondmentalhealth.com/the-benefits-of-a-bad-trip/Dr Cook's Medical Practice2022 Leafbox Interview with Dr CookExcerptsOn His Latest Essay So the original motivation is to give a hardheaded, more traditionally psychoanalytic explanation for why a bad trip in particularly heals depression… Psychedelics free people not just from rationalism, but also from moralism and depression is a form of moralism. It's a moral disease. It's a moralistic disease, and science is not moralistic. It's ontological….On Skepticism I see the atheist skeptical position as similar to the depressed position. That miraculous, wondrous outwardness that you get from psychedelics, that psychedelics restore people to a genuine religiosity, not a fake one.And they may even break down a person with fake religiosity. I think if they use a psychedelic, it may terrify them that they're not a believer anymore. They now you're back to the square one. Now you're back to where you were when you were a little kid. And you might feel like you're a pagan again.You may go out in the yard and look at the flowers and be tempted to worship them. And that's not a bad thing. That's natural. That's all humanity as it's in its starting point. We, for, that's just the starting point in humanity. You have to have sympathy on it.On Universal Soul It's hippie dippy, but it's also Native American. It's also Catholic. It's also Pagan. It's also Roman. It's also Viking. It's also Samoan. It's also Eskimo. Just look around the world. What do people value the most is family and their souls and the state of their soul.Dr. Cook does not recommend the use of any federally illegal drug.

Let's kick things off talking about movies with TINA and my exclusive interview with MIKI MAGASIVA and actor ANAPELA POLATAIVAO. Written and directed by Miki Magasiva and starring Anapela Polataivao, Antonia Robinson, Zac O'Meagher, Beulah Koale, Dalip Sondhi, Nicole Whippy, and Jamie Irvine, among others, TINA is an inspiring drama, a light-hearted rhythmic tear-jerker, and the story of Samoan teacher Mareta Percival. Struggling after the death of her daughter in the Christchurch earthquakes, Mareta reluctantly takes on the role of substitute teacher at an elite, wealthy private school and is surprised to find children crying out for guidance, inspiration, and love. Using the symphony of her culture to empower her students, she forms a choir, bringing them together while unexpectedly rediscovering her passion for being a teacher and mother. Then, we shift some gears with director CHAD HARTIGAN's THE THREESOME. Directed by Chad and written by Ethan Ogilby, THE THREESOME stars, as our threesome, a flawlessly funny and heartfelt Zoey Deutch, Jonah Hauer-King, and Ruby Cruz, with some wonderful supporting performances by Jaboukie Yang-White and Josh Segarra, among others. As you can imagine, an impulsive night leads to a wild threesome between Olivia (Zoey Deutch), Connor (Jonah Hauer-King), and Jenny (Ruby Cruz), leaving both women facing unexpected consequences, thrusting all three into the raw and beautifully messy chaos of adulthood. And we've got a brief recap and some congratulations for this weekend's Creative Arts Emmy Award winners, including Supervising Stunt Coordinator Jon Koyama and this stunt team for The Boys who got two pieces of hardware, the amazing soundies at Formosa Group who picked up Emmys for their work on multiple shows (Yay, George Haddad!), and the team at Jeopardy! (including my friend, writer John Duarte), as well as other winners like Barack Obama, who nabbed his third Emmy for Outstanding Narration of the documentary Our Oceans, while Julie Andrews picked up gold for her work as Best Character Voiceover on Bridgerton. The smash hit The Studio nabbed nine trophies on Saturday while The Penguin waddled away with eight. And this is all before the main event on September 14th! http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

The polls have closed and results are trickling in for the Samoan General Election which has been described as one of the most unpredictable elections in history. This election race was originally scheduled for April next year but brought forward after a split in the ruling FAST party. It led to months of political instability that ended with Prime Minister Fiame Naomi Mata'afa's minority government being unable to pass its 2025 Budget. NZ Pacific correspondent Grace Tinetali-Fiava'a speaks to Mihingarangi Forbes from Apia.

Muscogee Freedmen are closer to tribal citizenship than ever before. The Muscogee (Creek) Nation Supreme Court ruled the tribe must extend the rights of citizenship to the descendants of slaves who also have Muscogee lineage. We'll hear from Freedman who welcome the ruling, but warn there are likely more hurdles ahead. We'll also talk with an Alaska Native engineer working on building clean water systems for rural villages and inspiring Native girls to consider careers in science along the way. And we'll hear from both U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy and the tribal chairman about Sec. Kennedy's visit to the Nez Perce Reservation in Idaho to tout the Trump administration's commitment to food sovereignty.
