The 3 Eclipses in July 2000:
On 1st July 2000 there is a Partial Solar Eclipse which is visible in the South Pacific Ocean, South America. Therefore we don't really make any special arrangements, as the effects here are minimal. Those in Argentina, Chile etc., will experience this eclipse as it Begins: 18:07:10 Universal Time and the Partial Eclipse Ends: 20:57:34 Universal Time. (which corresponds to approximately 09:00 - 12:30 on the morning of the 17th July in New Zealand)
http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/SEplot/SE2000Jul01P.gif
On the 16th July 2000 there's a Total Lunar Eclipse and will be visible in the Americas, the Pacific and Asia. It begins on the evening of the 16th at about 22:46 NZ time (Moon enters penumbra) and finishes around 05:04am in the early morning of the 17th July. The Umbra will go from 23:57 on the 16th to 03:53am on the 17th.
http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/LEplot/LE2000Jul16T.gif
On the 31st July there is a Partial Solar Eclipse which is visible in Northern Asia, Northern West North America (northern Scandinavia, eastern Russia, Alaska, western Canada and the northwestern United States) and so not visible in New Zealand. (in Canada it will happen between 02:00 pm and 03:30 pm which is when sunset begins there - in NZ it would be evening in winter and so not possible for Solar anything)

TRANSLATION
And whoever, at the end of his life,
quits his body, remembering Me
alone, at once attains My nature.
Of this there is no doubt.
PURPORT by Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta
Swami Prabhupada.
In this verse the importance of Krsna
consciousness is stressed.
Anyone who quits his body in Krsna
consciousness is at once
transferred to the transcendental
nature of the Supreme Lord. The
Supreme Lord is the purest of the
pure. Therefore anyone who is
constantly Krsna conscious is also
the purest of the pure. The word
smaran ("remembering") is important.
Remembrance of Krsna is not
possible for the impure soul who has
not practiced Krsna consciousness
in devotional service. Therefore one
should practice Krsna
consciousness from the very beginning
of life. If one wants to achieve
success at the end of his life, the
process of remembering Krsna is
essential. Therefore one should constantly,
incessantly chant the
maha-mantra--Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna,
Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare/ Hare
Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare.
Lord Caitanya has advised that
one be as tolerant as a tree (taror
iva sahisnuna). There may be so
many impediments for a person who
is chanting Hare Krsna. Nonetheless,
tolerating all these impediments,
one should continue to chant Hare
Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare
Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama
Rama, Hare Hare, so that at the end
of one's life one can have the
full benefit of Krsna consciousness.

A young man visited his sister who
was married to a farmer in a poor district of the country.Since there were
limited accomodations,he was required to sleep with his young nephew. When
the young man came into the bedroom, he saw the little boy kneeling at
the side of the bed with his head bowed. Thinking this was the child's
religious upbringing, he decided to present a good example and kneeled
at the other side of the bed with his head bowed.
The child looked up and said, "Whatcha
doin'?"
"Why, the same thing you're doing",
replied the uncle.
"Ma's gonna be mad", said the boy. "The potty's on this side".
MORAL:

the support and approval of Mother Veda.
