Extractions: Asia-Pacific Regional Press Freedom Seminar Country Report - Cook Islands The media environment The Cook Islands News and the Cook Islands Herald are the two most influential newspapers in the Cook Islands, if only because they have comparatively wide readership on Rarotonga. Brief sketches of the two papers are provided below. The Cook Islands News main asset is that it has longevity to the extent that most Cook Islanders have grown up with it. Its disadvantage is that the media scene has changed dramatically in recent years, especially with the advent of television and other competing outlets for the advertising dollar. As the new kid on the block, the Cook Islands Herald has the difficult task of building readership but has been able to achieve this in a relatively short period through extensive television promotion. A third weekly newspaper, the Cook Islands Star, is also available on Rarotonga but its main market area is Auckland and its circulation on Rarotonga is about 400. Its reduced readership makes it less significant. Name: Cook Islands News (private since 1990.
Extractions: Dictionaries: General Computing Medical Legal Encyclopedia Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition Cook Strait is the strait A strait is a narrow channel of water that connects two larger bodies of water, and thus lies between two land masses. The terms strait channel , and passage can be synonymous and interchangeable, although channel has other meanings. Many straits are economically important. Straits can lie on important shipping routes, and wars have been fought for control of these straits. Numerous artificial channels, called canals , have been constructed to connect two bodies of water over land.

(A grammatical note: New Zealanders refer to them with a definite article as "the North Island" and "the South Island", like "the North Sea" and "the Western World", but unlike "Rangitoto Island" or "West Point". Maps, and headings or tables, and adjectival expressions use "North Island"; whereas "the North Island" is used after a preposition or before or after a verb, eg my mother lives in the North Island, the North Island is smaller than the South Island, I'm visiting the North Island). Several important cities are in the North Island, notably Auckland and Wellington, the capital of New Zealand at the southern extremity of the island.

Extractions: home search help worldguide ... Related Weblinks Just how the Polynesian peoples came to populate their islands of the Pacific is a subject of some debate. What is clear, however, is that they were great sailors and navigators who traversed vast distances of open ocean to settle as far and wide as present-day French Polynesia, Hawaii, New Zealand, parts of the New Guinea island, Tonga and the Cook Islands. It's thought that they left South-East Asia around 3000 or 4000 years ago and began to arrive in present-day French Polynesia around 300 AD. Islands were originally ruled by chieftains who commanded huge fleets of outrigger canoes; religious practices at this time included human sacrifices. Some of the first European visitors, among them Samuel Wallis (1767), Louis-Antoine de Bougainville (1768) and James Cook (1769), returned with stories of a paradise on earth inhabited by 'noble savages' and Venus-like women whose sexual favours were freely offered to the visitors. Europe was abuzz with stories of a tropical haven of free love when Bougainville returned to Paris and this myth attracted the likes of Herman Melville, Robert Louis Stevenson and Paul Gauguin. The most famous event in the region's recent history was the mutiny on the Bounty . It was on Tahiti and the Austral island of Tubuai that Fletcher Christian and his mutineers sought refuge after setting William Bligh and his faithful crew members adrift in a tiny open boat near the Tongan islands on 28 April 1789. And, ultimately, it was on Tahiti that the long arm of British law rounded up those mutineers who hadn't escaped to Pitcairn Island, and made them face British justice.
