Some people believe firmly that there is smore to this world than is always apparent to the naked eye; that there is indeed another dimension than our everyday expereince would suggest. Some are sceptical - but don't take any chances - while others dismiss such a concept as superstitious nonsense. This collection of stories will intrigue the believers and - we hope - entertain the sceptics.Authors Grant Shanks and Tahu Potiki gathered the stories in their first book, 'Where No Birds Sing', from a wide variety of people from all walks of life. After its publication they discovered that every other person, it seemed, also had a story to tell: they received many letters, faxes and e-mails from readers wanting to tell their own tales, such is the universal fascination with the supernatural. From these reader contributions and other sources they have gathered together the collection that has become 'When the Wind Calls Your Name'.The stories range from gentle little tales of friendly ghosts, such as The Woman in Green, to truly frightening expereinces like The Ouija Board. It includes many instances of people, both Maori and Pakeha, who have expereinces at first hand the power of tapu. All have in common the protagonists's firm belief that, at the time, they really did expereince something they could not explain in rational everyday terms.
These guidelines represent the collective efforts of the partners of Te Tapuae o Rehua to clarify what exactly a Treaty relationship means for tertiary institutions. All partners agree that we need to produce more Maori graduates within the sciences, social sciences, humanities, engineering and commerce. We need more Maori teachers. But we also need to improve participation, achievement and retention and this requires a committed relationship between the tertiary institutions and their Treaty partner. Ngai Tahu has recognised that establishing a tribal University would be limiting and the tertiary institutions recognise that they must work with Ngai Tahu to ensure a functional working relationship that is based on the Treaty of Waitangi. It is also in theory, financially rational.
