the NZ Navy stopped the distribution of the free tot of rum
Was still bloody cheap by the late 90s from the non-profit store on base. And port for about four dollars a bottle if that's any measure.

I'm interested in the bigger picture. Seems to be more expected these days that doing wrong things does not bring any consequences.

I made their job easier by blogging so articulately and so promptly!
Reckon. It sounded like you had talked with them, Dr Gracewood.
Not so in NZ?
Apparently not. Probably just house style and stretched resources rather than poor intent.
Not crediting blogs reflects the derisive official attitudes our newspapers seem to have about them. Doesn't stop them being sources when it suits, of course.

Thank you, Jolisa, for conveying so well and so concisely that weird dislocated feeling after a death. Excellent birds.
Oooh and it makes me wonder,
how much of his other works should give credit to others.The Checkpoint story (streaming, 3m37) mentions earlier concerns about The Matriarch that Jolisa noted upthread.
Auckland University appears to be more relaxed about this kind of thing.
Our culture of decreasing accountability goes right to the top. Total bankers.
The [Herald] article notes that Jolisa writes about the discovery 'in her blog' without giving the name of, or linking to, 'the blog'.
Worse, lifts her writing from here and makes it seem like quotes from a conversation - "Gracewood said". In a story about plagiarism.
