New Zealand English grammar, fact or fiction, Hundt M., 1998.

   New Zealand English (NZE), like Canadian, South African and Australian English, belongs to those national varieties of English that are not fully institutionalised (cf. Quirk 1990:6), i.e. its standard has not yet been described. On a scale that measures the degree of codification, Clyne (1995:22f.) distinguishes "full centres" like the US and Britain from "nearly full centres" (Australia) and "semi-centres" like Canada and New Zealand. The main difference between "nearly full centres" and "semi-centres" is that the latter have been recognized as separate varieties but no attempts have been made to codify the national variety. For Australian English, the major step in becoming a "nearly full centre" was the publication of the Macquarie Dictionary in 1981. With the recent publication of the Oxford Dictionary of New Zealand English (1997), its Tasmanian cousin has also crossed the threshold and become a "nearly full centre".1 But so far, only the lexicon of NZE has been codified. The present study is to be seen as a further step towards the codification of NZE. It focuses on the less accessible aspect of grammatical variation. Specifically, I would like to investigate whether the following assumption by Greenbaum can be upheld.

Human Missions to Mars, Enabling Technologies for Exploring the Red Planet, Rapp D., 2008.

   Human missions to Mars represent the pinnacle of solar system exploration for the next half-century. In addition to providing a means of exploring Mars, such missions would represent an inspiring engineering achievement and create a new era of expansion of humanity into space. Because such missions would require a major technological effort as well as very large expenditures, they remain for the moment as futuristic concepts embodied in paper studies by visionaries, advocates, and enthusiasts.

How to Make Masks, Good J., 2012.

   It’s just as much fun to make a mask as it is to wear it after it’s finished. And remember—masks aren’t just for wearing. They make great wall art, too. With just a few inexpensive materials and a few hours of “work,” you can populate the walls of your home (or your costume chest) with brand new personalities, creatures, and beasts.
Even more exciting, think of this—just by making a mask of your own creation, you’re following in the footsteps of a tradition that goes back at least 35,000 years, to the days when Neanderthals still lived on earth. I think that’s pretty amazing, don’t you?
