Description: A dog with the head of Health Minister, Tony Ryall, barks furiously at Richard Thomson, the chair of the Otago District Health Board, who is standing at a hospital window. Prime Minister, John Key, (who broke his arm in an accident) tells Ryall that Thomson is 'not going to budge' and that he should 'try Bainimarama instead'. Refers to the conviction for fraud of two of Richard Thomson's staff; Thomson himself was held accountable and eventually replaced, though not before he had told Tony Ryall that he wasn't going to resign and that Ryall should show the courage of his convictions and sack him, because the fraud had begun before he had even joined the ODHB and he himself had initiated the investigation which brought the matter to a head. A defiant Mr Thomson told NZPA he believed the real motivation to sack him was because he was a Labour Party member. Mr Ryall's decision reeked of political interference, he said.The fraud actually involved the DHB's former chief information officer Michael Swann and his friend and business associate Kerry Harford were found guilty in December last year of defrauding the board $16.9 million. The fraud happened over a period of six years. The reference to Bainimarama relates to his refusing to make a date for democratic elections in Fiji in spite of an ultimatum from the Pacific Forum.

This article was originally written in Danish in 1868 by Hans Thiele and later translated into English. This translation was written by Thiele and his daughter Marie Madeleine Thiele (see note at end of article). Thiele served with the yeomanry cavalry who aided the Armed Constabulary and the Colonial Government troops under Colonel Whitmore who were fighting Titokowaru's forces in the South Taranki region. The war was engaged over rights to confiscated land and this history is highlighted in these accounts. Beginning at Wairoa (Waverley) this first hand account is detailed and gives a great insight into the tactics and practices of the colonial forces and Titokowaru's warriors, and their various military engagements. Thiele indicates the number of casualties and comments on the Hauhau's rites of cannibalism and the practice of removing the human heart from those slain in battle. Theile comments on pa sites, redoubts and fortifications. The narrative traces the defeat of the colonial troops in the early part of the campaign in 1868 then continues into 1869 as Colonel Whitmore purses Titokowaru at the Waitotara River and on to Patea. The article ends with Thiele detailing the removal of fifty Maori prisoners by the paddle steamer `Sturt' from Wanganui to Wellington. Includes photocopy of Thiele's obituary `Old colonist dies' published in the Fiji Times, 27 June 1917. Also a detailed biography of Hans Thiele compiled by Karol London.
