EXTENDED BODY:
Auckland yachtsman Graeme Kendall always dreamed of sailing the Northwest passage.
It's considered the Everest of the sea - the treacherous waterway linking the Atlantic and Pacific oceans above Canada and Alaska in the Arctic circle.
It is only navigable for a short time each year, due to pack ice.
Not only did Graeme sail the northwest passage as part of a 193-day circumnavigation of the world from Auckland to Auckland - he did the passage solo, non-stop - nonstop person to have done so.
He has just published a book about his 2010 journey which was 28,000 miles, across 32 oceans and seaways- called To The Ice And Beyond.
He talks to Kathryn Ryan about his adventure.
Read an edited excerpt from their conversation
Where did this all begin?
It was in the lounge of the holiday home in the Marlborough Sounds. The fire was going, we were sitting around in the lounge and we got the atlas out. I sort of mentioned it to the family – wife and children - and I as started to describe it they sort of looked at me as though the idea might go away, but it didn’t. And they didn’t seem to have any objection to it and slowly the idea grew and I developed some ideas by research on the internet and one thing lead to another. Once the door is open you just keep going, if they keep closing you stop. It just grew and I achieved what I wanted to do.
What was the specific idea and what was the ambition that you wanted to fulfil?
I guess all the sailing I’ve done you could call and apprenticeship and for me, it was just something to prove to myself that I could do it. I had the experience, I had the time, there was some money available to build a really good boat in that respect I thought maybe sponsorship could be the thing to go for but that proved difficult – I may as well have said I was going to the Moon to some people. And of course, a sponsor doesn’t want to see a failure so it was obvious to me that it was going to be difficult.
So how did it then proceed?
I did all of my research and started to build a boat. I would have ideally like to have bought a boat, but there was nothing available or suitable, so I built one from scratch. As far as the sponsorship goes I turned that around and bought everything myself and sponsored children’s charity so we had signage on the side of the boat and people could phone and make donations. So the whole trip was based around that’s as well. That helped me going through the day – knowing something else was happening.
Tell me about the boat and why it needed to be built.
The one thing that I knew was that if I got out there after a couple of weeks and knew I was in the wrong boat that wouldn’t have been an enjoyable journey. I looked at boats – some were close, not quite right. Then this one came up, and by building it for one person everything on the boat was built to complete this particular trip.
Where were you at mentally? Was there some sense of trying to fathom the scale of what you were doing?
I enjoyed most of what I did, I savoured it and as I went obviously news disappeared. Problems with corridors of power disappeared, you start to watch nature you start to look at the miracle of nature. And how most of the wildlife survives without communication and without a mother and father telling them how to survive. So you do start to see the clearer things in life.
Were there moments that you questioned whether you would be able to complete the trip?
I felt very alone up there and it’s a very remote part of the world. I shouldn’t really be there was the feeling I had but it was part of the plan. And I had reasonably good weather up through the Northwest Passage luckily. But I always had the feeling of “get out of there, don’t hang around. It’s not a place to linger.” And I got through there OK. It was interesting when I got to the corner of Alaska, which is the end of the Northwest Passage, and I felt like I had gotten through it and felt like I could get off the boat and celebrate, but I still had 7000 miles to go. I got the usual bad weather in the Bearing Sea and that was frustrating, but it wasn’t dangerous. I knew what I could do, what the boat could do, but just had to turn the music up and go with it.

Oldest evidence of cancer found
BODY:
A fossilised foot bone from an ancient human dating back 1.7 million years, shows signs of an agressive form of bone cancer.
EXTENDED BODY:
We perhaps think of cancer as a relatively modern disease, but it turns out it’s been around for a very long time.
Scientists have just discovered a fossilised foot bone from an ancient human dating back 1.7 million years that shows signs of an agressive form of bone cancer.
One of the scientists involved – Zachary Throckmorton – has just returned from Africa where the bone was found. Jesse Mulligan gave him a call.
“Some people have argued that cancer is primarily a disease of modern times, but cancer is, essentially, unregulated cellular growth. It does not necessarily require carnicogenic materials or carcinogenic chemicals to cause the growth” – Zachary Throckmorton

NZ Live - Maala
BODY:

EXTENDED BODY:
MAALA - a musician who was originally shrouded in secrecy - is today's guest act on NZ Live.
Auckland-based singer-songwriter Evan William Sinton initially gave few interviews, and even shied away from revealing his real name.
Part of the reason could be because he didn't have a huge backstory. By day, he worked in a warehouse, but, at night, he discovered, or reinvented, himself... writing songs and honing his vocal talent.
It was a talent which Sony Music discovered early, and they managed to keep him under wraps until the release of his debut album Composure - just out.
He's here to share his music with us this afternoon; he is MAALA.

The allegations against Chief's rugby players over their treatment of a stripper they hired to perform for them, has sparked a national conversation about consent.
The stripper, who wants to be known only as Scarlette says members of the team touched her inappropriately at a party on Monday despite her consistently saying NO.
Feminist commentator and Massey University lecturer Deborah Russell says the issue has also exposed some concerning attitudes and victim-blaming.

[image:76796:half]
Today On New Zealand Live, a musician who was originally shrouded in secrecy. An Auckland-based singer-songwriter who gave few interviews and even shied away from revealing his real name. Part of the reason for all this mystery could be because Evan William Sinton did not have a huge backstory. By day he worked in a warehouse, but at night he discovered, or reinvented, himself ... writing songs and honing is vocal talent.
It was a talent which Sony Music discovered early, and they managed to keep him under wraps until the release of his debut album "Composure" just out.
Now we can reveal all, he's here to share his music with us this afternoon, he is Maala.

While National is the main governing party, it could not do so without support arrangements with other, much smaller, political parties. Since being elected in 2008 National has had agreements with United Future, the Maori Party and ACT.

Our political editor Jane Patterson talked to each of the support parties about working with National, and the challenges of making their agreements work.

Bidding for Bulls
BODY:
The Purdie family from Mahoenui have been breeding Angus bulls for more than 90 years. At the beginning of June they held their 70th on-farm sale. Farmers from around the North Island came to bid on the bulls - looking for athletic, well-muscled, masculine animals with good temperaments and very healthy libidos.
EXTENDED BODY:
A square jaw, straight back, good feet, good temperament and an extremely healthy libido.
They're all on the check-list for farmers in the market for a bull.
Scores of farmers turned out in early winter to run their eye over bulls and bid for their pick at Tarangower Stud's annual bull sale.
It was the 70th on-farm sale held at the stud; located at the end of a long unsealed road amid King Country's towering hills.
Jeremy Williams had come from the Gisborne region. He says he looks for medium-sized, athletic looking bulls with a square, masculine looking jaw, a meaty behind and an impressive sex drive.
"Ideally every bull should be able to do the job three times in ten minutes," he says.
Bulls are routinely libido tested and veterinarians record and monitor their performance.
"Some bulls come and they just think about it and don't do anything. They get put on the truck and go to the works." he says.
Bulls typically need replacing every two and a half years and will sire 100 calves in that time.
Tarangower Stud owner Rob Purdie says his family have been selecting Angus bulls for their confirmation and temperament for generations. The Purdies have been selling Angus bulls, bred on the Mahoenui property, for more than 90 years.
He says he's never been tempted to move away from the black Angus.
"They are the best thing for the hills. They graze better than anything else. Everyone tells you if they've got a mixture of cattle, Angus will always be at the top grazing the hardest places."
