On August 29 1914 New Zealand forces captured German Samoa after being asked to do so by Great Britain. When war broke out in Europe in August 1914, Britain asked New Zealand to seize German Samoa as a ‘great and urgent Imperial service’. New Zealand’s response was swift. Led by Lieutenant-Colonel Robert Logan, the 1385-strong Samoa Advance Party of the New Zealand Expeditionary Force landed at Apia on 29 August. There was no resistance from German officials or Samoa’s general population.
The German flag was lowered and all buildings and properties belonging to the previous administration were seized. In the presence of officers, troops and ‘leading Native chiefs’, the British flag was raised outside the government building in Apia. The document pictured is the orders Logan received from Colonel Braithwaite to seize German Samoa. Braithwaite was a British Army Officer who had been seconded to the New Zealand Military Forces from 1911 to 1917. Archives New Zealand holds the military personnel files for Colonel Robert Logan and Colonel William Braithwaite. These files are digitised and can be accessed from the following links:

When I survey the wondrous Cross by Isaac Watts 1674-1748.
Isaac Watts
1674-1748
The singing of God's praise is the part of worship most
clearly related to heaven; but its performance among us
is the worst on earth. (I.W.)
Watts wrote them superbly, yet he wrote eversomuch more than his 697 hymns. A textbook on logic, for instance, that was used for years at Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard and Yale. Not to mention his two books on geometry and astronomy. Upset at the inability of students to handle the English language creditably, he penned The Art of Reading and Writing English. It was followed by his Philosophical Essays (with its appendix, "A brief Scheme of Ontology", ontology being that branch of philosophy that discusses being), then by Improvement of the Mind (this was actually a "how-to-study" book, and even A Discourse on the Education of Children and Youth. A minister for virtually all of his adult life, Watts also published ten volumes of sermons and scores of theological treatises.
Isaac Watts was born in 1674, the eldest of eight children, six of whom survived. The last quarter of the 17th century was a troubled time in England. Dissenters (those who refused to conform to the established church) were not only denied access to suitable employment and the universities; Dissenters were liable to prosecution and imprisonment for no greater "crime" than persisting in worshipping God according to their conscience. Watts's father, a Dissenter, was imprisoned one year after he was married. His wife, Watts's mother, gave birth to Isaac while her husband was in jail. She regularly nursed her infant son on the jail steps in the course of visiting her husband. (When Isaac was nine years old his father was jailed a second time -- for six months -- for the same offence: refusing to conform to the worship-practices of the established church.)
Young Isaac was plainly precocious. He had learned Latin by age four, Greek at nine, French at eleven, and Hebrew at thirteen. French was not usually studied in English elementary schools during the 1600s, but Watts was raised in Southampton, and Southampton was a city of refuge to hundreds of refugees who were fleeing persecution in France. The youngster thought he should know French so that he could converse with his neighbours.
A physician recognized the boy's intellectual gifts and offered to finance his education at either Oxford or Cambridge. But regardless of his brilliance Watts would be admitted to either university only if he were willing to renounce Dissent and conform to Anglicanism. He wasn't willing. (Had his father suffered for nothing?) He would never surrender conviction to expediency. As a result he went to a Dissenting Academy, the post-secondary institution for those barred from the universities. While completing his formal education Watts wrote much poetry, most of it in Latin. Upon leaving the Academy at age 20 he wrote his first hymn, "Behold the Glories of the Lamb" -- yet did so only when challenged sharply by his father.
The writing of his first hymn was significant in view of the fact that hymns weren't sung in English churches. German Lutherans had been singing hymns for over 100 years. Calvinists in Switzerland and France, however, had not. The Calvinists disdained hymns as unscriptural and popish. Calvin had wanted his people to sing only the psalms of scripture. English Protestants of Calvinist parentage had adopted the practice of singing only metrical psalms in worship. The texts of these metrical psalms were poetically crude and frequently ludicrous; for instance,
Ye monsters of the bubbling deep,
Your Master's praises spout,
Up from the sands ye coddlings peep,
And wag your tails about.
The texts were ludicrous, the mood was ponderous, the tone of the entire service dreary, and one day Watts discovered he couldn't endure any of it a minute longer. Returning from the service one Sunday morning he complained vehemently to his father about the psalm-singing that put people off worship. "Why don't you write a hymn suitable for congregational singing?", his father retorted. In the course of the afternoon Watts did just that, and the congregation sang hymn #1 the same evening.
Yet it must not be thought that Watts disesteemed the psalms. Far from it. So highly did he value them, in fact, that he immediately set about rewriting the metrical versions in a smoother idiom. Compare the metrical version of Psalm 20 with Watts's version:
In chariots some put confidence,
Some horses trust upon;
But we remember will the name
Of our Lord God alone. (Metrical)
Some trust in horses train'd for war,
And some of chariots make their boasts;
Our surest expectations are
From Thee, the Lord of heav'nly hosts. (Watts)
(As relatively smooth as Watts's hymn-line was, it would be made even smoother by 18th century poets such as Charles Wesley.)
Not everyone thanked Watts for his efforts. Some of his contemporaries complained that his hymns were "too worldly" for the church. One critic fumed, "Christian congregations have shut out divinely inspired psalms and have taken in Watts's flights of fancy!" His hymns outraged many people, split congregations (most notably the congregation whose pastor, years earlier, had been John Bunyan, himself the author of an English classic), and got pastors fired. Still, Watts knew what his preeminent gift was and why he had to employ it.
Needless to say we of Streetsville United Church, having been thoroughly exposed to the genius of Charles Wesley, cannot help comparing the hymnwriting of Wesley and Watts.
Wesley's hymns concern themselves chiefly with God and the individual human heart: their relations, their estrangement, their reconciliation, their union. Watts writes of this too, but with a major difference: the backdrop of God's intercourse with the human heart is the cosmos in its unspeakable vastness. Watts sees the drama of the incarnation and the cross, the dereliction and the resurrection, as apparently small events that are in fact possessed of cosmic significance. Watts's universe is simply more immense than anything Wesley imagined. For Watts nature is more prodigious, time more extensive, eternity more awesome. (This is not to say that Wesley is inferior. Indeed no one would rate Watts a better poet. Wesley had more poetic skill than Watts, and more thorough training in the forms of classical poetry. It is simply to say that Watts's universe was larger.) It is said of Milton that he is the English poet who, above all others, makes the reader aware of the sky. In the same way Watts, with his fondness of astronomy, singularly makes the reader aware of the hugeness of the firmament.
There are technical comparisons as well of the poetry of Watts and Wesley. Wesley preferred a six-line stanza, but when writing a four-line stanza usually rhymed first and third lines as well as second and fourth. Watts preferred a four-line stanza and usually rhymed only the second and fourth lines. As a result Watts's stanzas tend to read less compactly than Wesley's. While Wesley combined Anglo-Saxon expressions (they are customarily blunt, one-syllable words like "hit") with Latin expressions (usually multi-syllable words like "transported" or "ineffable"), Watts wrote page after page of hymns lacking even one word with a Latin derivation (despite the scores of Latin poems that he wrote). Watts evidently preferred to write hymns in words of one syllable.
Watts was a man with limitless appreciation of the passion of God. He himself was possessed of the profoundest experience of God. Listen to him:
Here at the cross, my dying God
I lay my soul beneath thy love.
*
The mount of danger is the place
Where we shall see surprising grace.
*
Turn, turn us, mighty God,
And mould our souls afresh;
Break, sovereign grace, these hearts of stone,
And give us hearts of flesh.
(Note that the last line, "And give us hearts of flesh", consists of six words of one syllable each.)
Watts was accorded the recognition he deserved. By age 50 he was a national figure, esteemed by Anglicans and Dissenters alike. John Wesley had long acknowledged the genius, discipline and piety of Watts, and when Wesley came to publish his first hymn book, one-third of its hymns were Isaac's. When John Wesley published his tract, The Doctrine of Original Sin, he incorporated 44 pages of Watts's earlier work, Ruin and Recovery.
The poetic genius of Watts is evident. Yet since few poets (if any) have made a living from poeticizing, how did Watts manage to survive?
Upon graduating from the Academy Watts eked out a living as tutor to the son of a well-to-do English merchant. He never thought for a moment, however, that this was his vocation. In 1702, when he was 27 years old, he was called to a pastorate in London. The next ten years were spent fruitfully and happily as Watts immersed himself in the relentless round of responsibilities that every pastor must attend to -- at the same time as he wrote books, treatises, poems and hymns.
The easygoing ten years were ended abruptly by a major illness from which he never recovered fully. While he was unable to work during his illness he asked the congregation to discontinue his salary. The congregation refused, and instead raised it so that he could pay his medical bills.
The illness incapacitated him for four years. When the worst of it abated he was left frail, fragile, sickly. In addition there was an apparently non-specific psychiatric component to his now-chronic weakness. On the one hand he wasn't sick enough to die for another 38 years; on the other hand, he wasn't sickness-free enough to be well. A wealthy benefactor, Thomas Abney, invited him to his home to assist his recovery. He gratefully accepted, and went on to live there for the rest of his life.
Watts preached whenever he could. There were periods when he could preach with little interruption, as well as periods when he was simply deranged and couldn't function at all.
In 1739, at age 65, Isaac suffered a stroke that left him able to speak but unable to write. A secretary was provided for his dictated poems and hymns.
He died on 25th November, 1748.
Isaac Watts was unusual in many respects. A short man (five feet tall), his frail body was capped with a disproportionately large head. Virtually all portraits of him depict him in a large gown with large folds, an obvious attempt at having him appear less grotesque.
Unusual? How many working pastors write a textbook on logic that is used for decades by the preeminent universities of the English-speaking world?
Unusual? Who among us can write a book on metaphysics that probes ontology, and at the same time write a book of children's poetry that goes through 95 editions within 100 years of its publication?
Unusual? Who has written hymns that have been translated into dozens of languages from Armenian to Zulu?
Unusual? What modern thinker has published a learned tome on astronomy and also published graded catechisms (one for five-year olds, another for nine-year olds, another for twelve-year olds)?
Watts was unusual: he regularly gave away one-fifth of his income, deploying his tithe locally yet also sending it as far afield as Germany and Georgia to help beleaguered people there.
Yet surely he was most unusual in that the jockey-sized man, ugly as well, handicapped by a thin voice and a history of psychiatric illness, could appear in a pulpit whenever sanity overtook him and draw hundreds who hung on words rising from a heart that hearers knew to be wrapped in the heart of God.
Watts was not unusual in one important respect. Like all Christians he knew that God is to be loved with the mind, and therefore reason must never be discounted in the exercising of faith or the discipline of the Christian life. Yet he knew too that the mystery of God himself, while never irrational, is oceans deeper than reason can fathom. Who among us would say anything else? Then it is proper for us to conclude with a four-line stanza Isaac Watts wrote concerning the fathomless mystery of God.
Where reason fails,
With all her pow'rs,
There faith prevails
And love adores.

On 13 October 1975, a hikoi of 5,000 marchers arrived at Parliament to protest the ongoing alienation of Māori land. Organised by Māori land rights group Te Rōpū O Te Matakite and led by Dame Whina Cooper, the hikoi had departed from Te Hapua, Northland, on 14 September, and arrived in Wellington after marching 1,100 kms throughout the North Island.
Te Rōpū O Te Matakite regarded the land march as ‘a climax to over a hundred and fifty years of frustration and anger over the continuing alienation of their lands’. Upon their arrival at Parliament they presented a petition signed by 60,000 people from around New Zealand to Prime Minister Bill Rowling. The petition called for an end to monocultural land laws which excluded Māori cultural values, and asked for the ability to establish legitimate communal ownership of land within iwi.
The hikoi represented a watershed moment in the burgeoning Māori cultural renaissance of the 1970s. It brought unprecedented levels of public attention to the issue of alienation of Māori land, and established a method of protest that was repeatedly reused in the following decades.
To mark the 40th anniversary of the Land March, Archives New Zealand has created an album on Flickr to highlight key documents within our holdings that relate to the event. These include the petition with 60,000 signatures presented by Dame Whina Cooper to Prime Minister Bill Rowling, images of the Land March approaching Wellington City and correspondence related to the planning that went on behind the scenes to support the march taking place.
Not all members of the public were in support of the Land March. Prime Minister Bill Rowling received many letters of complaint aimed at the alleged breaking of law by allowing Māori to march on the highways. However, as noted by the Prime Minister’s response, permission had been sought prior to the March so no laws were broken. (Names have been moved for privacy reasons)

I haven't posted a Filofax picture in so long. I decided to start documenting my juicing concoctions in my Filo mostly because I forget what I put with what; especially if it turns out decent! ;-)
This particular concoction was carrots, beet, collard greens, watercress, English cucumber and wheatgrass. Delicious? No. It tastes like something at the bottom of a swamp; however, it is so healthy. I will continue to choke down my concoctions! :-) I'll start experimenting with some fruits to sweeten my veggies up a little bit. ;-)

I need help debugging this. The image is a screenshot of Word 2011 bug effects that are standing in the path of a book am finishing. Detail: I am using Microsoft® Word for Mac 2011, Version 14.21.3 (111085). While the Print view looks fine, and clicking on any text shows the correct style in the Styles toolbox, the Outline view has big problems. Lines of normal text, regardless of formatting, show up in the Outline view as Level 1. They also show up as Level 1 or 2 in the Document Map Pane sidebar, which is the pane on the left. I use this pane to navigate around the book, which is close to 300 pages and over 80,000 words. I can fix the problem by clicking on the line of text incorrectly seen by word as Heading 1, clearing the formatting, and re-formatting it if necessary. But that takes me about an hour each time this happens, and it's a huge PITA. Word's AutoRecovery works rarely, and when it does, the AutoRecovered file has the same problem. FWIW, I don't use any fancy formatting, instead relying on Word's own default Headings and other styles. Also, if I save in Outline view, ALL TEXT gets turned into Level 1, and the document is hosed. I just have to go back to the last good copy. Any clues or help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. And please don't tell me not to use Word. It's a requirement for getting the book in, and if I could avoid it, I would.

Adolescens monstrifer nom[en] Jaquet Floquet postea peragratis pluribus Italie
ciuitatibus questus causa genuam venit : ac hospitatus est in vicinia molis :
et que de eo superius scripta sunt : hodie verissima fore deprehendi : duobus exceptis.
nam monstrum ex stomaco : non ex pectore exit : nec egerit deficiente ano :
mingit t[ame]n : et membrum virile habet. preterea non sunt plures dies :
[que] monstrum h[abe]t tibias ita in poplitibus retractas : ut talis pedum suas nates
attingat. cur ei ita acciderit : pleriq[ue] credunt : [qui]a monstrum adhuc crescens
no[n] h[ab]ea[n]t solitum nutrime[n]tum : et ob hoc forte monstrifero breuiore[m] vita[m]
portendit : ut et[iam] in aspectu de monstrat moestus et pallidus incedens : t[ame]n
vultu modesto : et acco[m]modatis verbis : et quantum potui considerare
circiter etatis anno[rum] xvj videtur.

Penn Libraries call number: Inc A-938 Folio
Today was a pretty packed day. I’ll try and keep the description shorter this time. Anyway my day started off easily with parking right into a nice spot, minimal traffic, and nicely on time for my classes. After my classes were done I met one of my friends for lunch at the college cafeteria. My friend, his cousin, and I all ate lunch and then headed to the library to do some homework and study. Then our other friend Cindy also met up with us. Cindy and I worked on our precalc homework and Ricky worked on his calc. His cousin also did precalc but he was in a different class so we couldn’t do the work with him since he had other problems for homework. We worked from about 12:00 to 2:10. Then I went over to my lab. My Geology lab is real fun actually. It’s funny we did a lab assignment to day which included writing out in chalk 4.6 billion years in meters. I did the same project my freshman year of high school and so I kind of remember the steps to the lab. My group was pretty funny, and when we finished the notes and questions we needed to answer we were able to go home early. Time is the only bummer of the lab, it goes from 2:30-5:20pm (that is A LOT of Geology…).
Anyway, I’m now working on homework, so have a good night everyone!
