Lyndhurst farmer takes out supreme award By Sam Morton

Lyndhurst sheep farmer Johnny Miles is still basking in the glory with his winning ram, after taking out the Supreme Award at the country’s biggest A&P Show yesterday. Mr Miles, who has been attending the event since 1977, was LEFT: Winning smile: Johnny Miles, of Lyndhurst, is all smiles after collecting a swag of champion ribbons yesterday at New Zealand’s biggest agricultural and pastoral show.

awarded the Supreme Award after his Suffolk ram stood out from more than 40 other competitors in the running for the highly sought after champion’s ribbon. The veteran Suffolk breeder told the Guardian shortly after the ribbon ceremony he was delighted with the win and was pleased with this year’s efforts. “Where we farm in Lyndhurst, it’s a wee bit colder than other areas – so to achieve what we have achieved here at the show – I knew this ram had to be something special.

“I’ve been exhibiting at the Canterbury show for a long time now and I really look forward to this time of year – and to take out the top ribbon doesn’t happen often.” In fact, Mr Miles has won the event three times previously – but each time it has been a hard fought encounter. “The competition is incredibly tough and it’s really nice to be honoured and recognised at this level. “I guess it’s as the old saying goes, the show always produces

prizes and surprises – and that’s the way it is ... this year’s award was certainly one of those,” he said. Meanwhile, other Mid Canterbury sheep farmers excelled in their fields – taking out first and second place across a number of categories. Norman Carr, of Mayfield, impressed in the Old Ram (over 18) category taking out first place, while George Lowe’s Poll Dorset rams featured at the top. Ashburton’s Paul Gardner also won a first placing in the Texel

category, as well as taking out the Reserve Champion title in the open ram category. Other Mid Canterbury sheep breeders flew the flag high for the province also, returning home with final placings and near misses – making for a successful year for the locals. Mr Miles said he was thrilled by the efforts of Mid Canterbury sheep farmers – pointing out the district always punched well above its weight at A&P shows around the South Island. “It’s great to see – a lot of people

don’t realise how well the sheep industry is doing and it has often been perceived negatively by outsiders. “We all work really hard in what we do and it takes hours, days, months and years of preparation to compete in a field at a show like this – let alone win,” he said. Mr Miles will now turn his attention to the pairs and trifecta categories where he will be looking to continue his winning ways. “After that and when it’s all over, I might just celebrate,” he said.

Tinwald to get traffic lights By Sue Newman Plans for traffic lights in Tinwald could be ready to roll by September if the Ashburton District Council has its way. The New Zealand Transport Agency had previously told the council that lights in Tinwald were a low priority because traffic issues did not justify the expense. Last month the council called the transport agency to the table and left it in no doubt that it wanted lights installed and was prepared to help fund the project. At yesterday’s meeting of the council’s operations committee the green light was given for the council to push ahead with discussions on traffic lights with the objective of meeting a timeframe of having work firmed up by September. While the transport agency has tagged the Agnes Street-Lagmhor Road intersection with the state highway as its preferred location for lights, councillor Robin Kilworth said the council’s jury was still out on where those lights should go. She also asked whether the $1.7 million quoted was the final figure or whether there were

cheaper options. “We believe that location is just one of the transport agency’s options and that we’ll have at least two options to consider. I’ve included the $1.7m figure as a place maker for council to start thinking about,” said operations manager Rob Rouse. “We’ve been looking for a cost effective solution at a location that would make sure we get the best possible solution.” The council was committed to making progress on the lights project and it was heartening to see the transport agency was now open to discussions, he said. While the lights were a high priority for the community, councillor Stuart Wilson said the council had to be careful when it made a funding commitment because those lights were also the transport agency’s responsibility because they were on a state highway and were benefitting through traffic as well as local traffic. The council is also pushing the agency to look at installing traffic lights at the Walnut Avenue-West Street intersection. Mr Rouse said these would be treated as two separate projects but the council was keen to see the two run in parallel.

Celebrating a gold medal in New Zealand’s national sausage competition, Allenton Meats owner Paddy Kennedy and staff Jamie Trudgeon and Jarred Howden.

Paddy’s bangers bring home medals By Sue Newman Snags, snarlers, bangers or just plain sausages, when it comes to knowing what goes in to making the country’s best, Ashburton’s Paddy Kennedy reckons he must have the recipe about right. Most years since the Great New Zealand Sausage competition was launched Mr Kennedy’s been sending his best products along for judging and most years he’s come home with a clutch of medals. This year was no exception,

in fact it’s been one of his best. He scooped the pool with a gold medal in the gourmet section with a venison, red wine and cracked pepper banger and followed that up with a silver for his beef sausages. And it doesn’t matter how many times you score a gold, it’s still a thrill, he said. In fact this year, he’s taken more pleasure out of the silver for his beef bangers than the gold for the venison version. Like all butchers, beef sausages are bread and butter business, but over the past six months Mr Kennedy’s been

tinkering with his recipe and he’s used his customers as his testing panel. “I’ve got this old guy who’ll always tell me what’s right and what’s not. He called on Monday, said he’d bought some beef sausages on Friday. He said they were the best beef sausages he’d tasted in his life.” That was enough for Mr Kennedy. The tinkering stopped and the finished product won silver. His gold medal winning gourmet venison sausage is a stock standard in his chiller but it too underwent a little tweak-

ing before the competition – a change of red wine and a little more pepper. And the judges loved it. The sausage competition has been running in various forms since 1994 and is now well established as an annual highlight for butchers and smallgoods manufacturers. In 2007 the competition was rebranded to the Great New Zealand Sausage Competition and in 2011 the competition had a makeover once more to become the Devro New Zealand Sausage Competition. Butchers have a choice of 12

Methven museum, library to be demolished By Susan Sandys Caretakers of Methven’s historic library and museum have been given the green light for demolishing the two buildings. Commissioner Patricia Harte has ruled that the Ashburton District Council can issue resource consent for demolition to the Methven Public Library and the Methven Historical Society committees, after a hearing last month. The two buildings have been the subject of an emotive battle between the two committees and the New Zealand Historic Places Trust. They LEFT: Methven Library’s future has been sealed - it’s to be demolished.

are both listed as category two buildings with the trust, and the trust has been fighting with the respective committees for their survival. The library and museum committees see the earthquake-damaged buildings as a liability in a postquake environment, with tougher strengthening regulations and strict insurance criteria. They applied for demolition after the buildings were shut down in the earthquakes and the library was damaged further by a drunk driver smashing into it in December last year. The trust opposed the applications and put its case before Commissioner Harte in a hearing at the Methven Heritage Centre on October 29.

NZHPT area manager Owen Graham would not comment yesterday, saying the trust had not yet seen the decision. Methven library committee chairperson Eleanor Marr said she was “absolutely thrilled” at the decision, and that common sense had prevailed. “We are just greatly relieved, and now we can actually go forward,” she said. The library committee would be meeting with the historical society committee to see where to from here. The committees are planning to build a new joint building on the library site. The library will have to apply to the NZHPT for an archaelogical authority prior to demolition as the

building was constructed prior to 1900. Mrs Marr said creating a replica of the library’s façade had been an option in a rebuild project, it was unknown at this stage if that would be the plan that was pursued. In her decision, Commissioner Harte said the effects of retention outweighed costs to the community. “The Methven Historical Society and public library are voluntary groups with no regular source of income, which means that they would not be able to afford the cost of strengthening or sustain rising insurance costs that came with it,” she said.

categories. Entries are picked up by mystery shoppers and sent to Auckland for anonymous judging by a panel. Each sausage is judged by at least two judges and an average score is taken from these. Medals are then awarded for the marks received. From here, the sausages which received the top mark in each category are rejudged against each other to find the Supreme Award winner and the People’s Choice Award winner. This year’s supreme winner was a Wellington Smoked Kielbasa.

Teacher overpaid by $700 By Myles Hume A Hampstead School relief teacher was paid from North Island schools she had never heard of, and was paid hundreds of dollars she was not owed. The teacher, who did not want to be named, said she was “frustrated” at the ongoing mistakes in her pay slips that have led to being about $700 in debt to the Crown. Her case is one of more than 8000 blunders from the Novopay teacher payroll system, which has caused

nationwide outrage from schools who are having to pick up the pieces. While some had been underpaid or not paid at all, the teacher, who has not taught at another school for seven years, has been overpaid twice and paid money by schools in Auckland and Wellington, which she would not name. “I don’t think they will be too happy with me,” she joked about the schools who technically paid her for not turning up. “I’m lucky I can laugh about it, I don’t tend to get stressed about these things, but if I was a young

person I could have been terribly concerned. “Personally, it hasn’t caused me any distress apart from the fact it is causing distress to office staff and God knows how the accountant is going to balance the books.” One to usually check the bottom of her pay slip, the teacher said she picked through every detail of her pay slips since the $29 million Novopay system was introduced in August, and was able to identify payments for working half an hour at the Wellington school and 14 hours at the Auckland school during

September. “I had to look them up, I didn’t even know where they were.” She is paying the debt in fortnightly installments to the Crown, who she said were abrupt at the way they had handled the case. An email sent to her read: “The ministry policy is that all Crown debts are to be recovered as soon as possible, regardless of who was at fault.” “I thought that was rude, rude and blunt,” she said. The woman said it would be difficult to ever reinstall her faith in

teacher pay roll systems. “I don’t know, I will be forever checking my pay slips, I just feel for those who who haven’t been paid.” Meanwhile, Labour’s spokesperson, Nanaia Mahuta has called for an inquiry into the “botched” system, and the Government has said it will hold Novopay administrators Talent 2 accountable. “The Committee needs to hear from schools and principals about the problems they have faced, and the amount of time, resources and energy it has taken to address them,” Ms Mahuta said.

By Mark Price A skydiver was killed in a fall near Wanaka Airport yesterday. It is believed his parachute failed to open. The man landed on the golf driving range of the Have A Shot complex across State Highway 6 from the main entrance to the airport about 4pm. Eyewitness James Loughnan, of Wanaka, said he had been working on his plane across the highway from the driving range. He heard the flutter of a parachute and looked up to see the skydiver at about 70 metres, dropping to the ground. The skydiver’s white reserve chute was trailing behind him, but was not deployed enough to break his fall. Mr Loughnan said the bag for the reserve chute was found just a few metres from the skydiver, indicating the chute had been deployed close to the ground. The main chute was found a few hundred metres away, across Mt Barker Rd. Mr Loughnan said unlike other skydivers in the air yesterday afternoon, this skydiver was on his own without a tandem passenger. He understood the man was a skydiving photographer. Mr Loughnan said he knew from his own flying experience that when a southeasterly was blowing, as it was yesterday, there could be rotational turbulence off hills near where the skydiver hit the ground. The Civil Aviation Authority has been notified and will be investigating. - APNZ

Taking advantage of reading initiative Julie Ward and her nephew Keagan Wilson-Wright, 13, view items among the Travelling Books project at Ashburton’s post shop yesterday. The Ashburton Learning Centre was stationed at the shop from 10am, and had given away the 50

books by New Zealand and international authors it had on display by 11.30am. Ms Ward was there to find books for Keagan and another nephew, as she wanted to encourage their interest in reading. “I think it’s great,” she said.

The initiative was part of the Travelling Books project, launched by Literacy Aotearoa and New Zealand Post. More than 4000 books are being freely distributed around dozens of towns and cities throughout New Zealand, each with a label inviting

the public to take it, read it, then pass it on. Dozens of people had turned up at yesterday’s stand, and were enthusiastic about the many children’s and adults’ titles on offer. “It was great, the amount of interest was just fantastic,” she said.

The death last year of an Invercargill toddler who was trampled by a cow has sparked a warning for parents to supervise their young children constantly. Jack Xavier Tatham was just under 2 years old when he died in his parents’ arms in Dunedin Hospital the day after a cow stood on his head. - apnz

Bill proposes partial sunbed ban Aoraki Polytechnic’s viability under spotlight By Kate Shuttleworth

By Myles Hume Aoraki Polytechnic’s viability will be put under the microscope today, as key stakeholders meet to discuss “options for the future”. However, it is unclear what specifics will be discussed at the meeting in Timaru as stakeholders are expected to openly discuss what the Aoraki Polytechnic Council is doing and provide feedback. About 40 stakeholders will attend the meeting along with Ashburton District councillor Robin Kilworth, who is the former chairwoman of the Aoraki Polytechnic Council. Two weeks ago, chief executive Kay Nelson said the Ashburton campus was relying on support from the community, and when asked if it could close down, she responded: “no decisions have been made about the future”. Aoraki Polytechnic council chairman Kevin Cosgrove could not say what was going to be discussed at the meeting, nor whether the Ashburton campus’ future was on the agenda. “It just really is a process

CRUMB

Kay Nelson we are going through at the moment to see where Aoraki’s best options are to provide the best educational facilities in the region,” he said. Suffering a financial loss of $1.6 million last year and staring down a projected loss of $2.1m this year, Mr Cosgrove said it was time to be “proactive”. The polytechnic had appointed independent advisor Malcolm Inglis to assess future options and report back next month. “We have just employed him to work through a process for

us, he will be looking at it with fresh eyes and no bias,” Mr Cosgrove said. He pointed out it was important to recognise the polytechnic was not under any financial strife. “We have got reserves ($29m), it’s not like we are looking down the barrel,” Mr Cosgrove said. “If I was worried I wouldn’t be sleeping at night and I’m sleeping well, there’s no financial crisis. But if we sat down and did nothing, we wouldn’t be doing our job properly.” Tertiary Education minister Steven Joyce said the polytechnic was vital to small towns such as Ashburton. His point was underlined by a report by the Timaru District Council that found the polytechnic brought $47m to the South Canterbury economy. “All regional polytechs need to meet the needs of their local communities – it the most important reason for them to exist. “In small areas it is always a mix of methods, to ensure people get the right local support to learn while getting access to high-quality teaching.” by David Fletcher

A proposed bill that could ban teenagers and fair-skinned adults from using sunbeds has received support from the Cancer Society and the national Dermatologists body. National MP Paul Hutchison’s Health (Skin Cancer and Trauma Prevention) Amendment Bill would see enforced regulations on sunbeds and cosmetic lasers to prevent avoidable harm from ultraviolet radiation. It also calls on premises with sunbeds to be licensed and regulated. The New Zealand Dermatological Society Incorporated (NZDSi) supported

the bill, which would “provide greater consumer protection minimising potential and actual harm in their use”, said a statement. About 300 New Zealanders die each year from malignant melanoma, and UV light from sunbeds is nearly three times as harmful as sun radiation, said the Cancer Society. Sunbeds have been banned in New South Wales, and South Australia will ban them by 2015. New Zealand has the highest incidence of melanoma in the world. In 2009 there was a total of 2212 melanoma registrations and 326 deaths. The current voluntary standards for using sunbeds include client consent,

no use for under 18-year-olds and exclusion of people with pale skin who always burn. Surveys by Consumer New Zealand of sunbed operators has shown there is a high level of non-compliance. A Consumer NZ mystery shopper sunbed survey, published in September, found many sunbed operators were not complying with the voluntary standards. In the survey of 30 clinics in Auckland and Wellington, just three turned away a person with very fair skin. Dr Hutchison said the proposed bill was a timely reminder that New Zealanders need to do something to reduce the statistic of having the highest incidence of melanoma in the world. -APNZ

Cathedral demolition halted By Kurt Bayer A High Court judge has stepped in to halt the demolition of the earthquake-crippled Christ Church Cathedral. Justice Lester Chisholm ordered all demolition work to stop immediately until further notice after ruling the future of the cathedral is “legitimately in the public arena” and “plainly a matter of intense public interest”. The Great Christchurch Buildings Trust (GCBT) took the neo-Gothic style cathedral’s owners, the Church Property Trust (CPT), to court last month in a lastditch legal bid to have it repaired. The cathedral was badly dam-

aged in the killer February 22, 2011 quake, which snapped its spire. Its damaged state prompted the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (Cera) to issue a section 38 unsafe building notice, which demanded urgent action. Anglican Bishop Victoria Matthews announced plans to deconstruct the cathedral to a safe level of two to three metres above the ground earlier this year. The decision sparked public protests and the GCBT, led by former MP Jim Anderton, battled to save the landmark city centre building. They sought a declaratory court judgment to determine whether the Anglican Diocese of Christchurch’s decision to deconstruct breached

an Act of Parliament designed to protect church buildings. Yesterday Justice Chisholm agreed the historic building’s custodians were acting outside the Church Properties Trust Act 2003 when they decided to deconstruct earlier this year. He granted an application for judicial review which meant demolition work must be halted. No timeframe was given for the review, but Justice Lester stressed it should happen “as soon as possible”. He ruled that the church’s trust requires there to be a cathedral building on its exact Cathedral Square site. But he further stated that the building does “not necessarily have

to replicate the cathedral as it stood before the earthquake”. “After giving the matter considerable thought I have concluded that the court should intervene and that it would be inappropriate to refuse relief altogether,” the judge writes in his 200-paragraph decision. He said he was influenced by seven matters. Given the “intense and legitimate” public interest, he said the court would be falling short in its duty if it failed to ensure that the decision-making process was properly completed. He said the CPT, while having to make a difficult and complex decision under tight time pressures, was wrong to think its cathe-

dral trust was there only for the advancement of religion and maintenance of the ecclesiastical institution, not particular buildings. There was a “misunderstanding” within the church over how it could spend its insurance money and he raised concerns over “informal” intentions by the church over rebuilding on the cathedral site. “An informal intention can be overtaken by events,” he said. “It is also possible that the project will lose impetus once the transitional (cardboard) cathedral has been built.” The High Court hearing, held in Christchurch on October 3 and 4, had also “exposed contestable issues” about engineering, cost, and other aspects that were not

before the CPT when it made its decision to deconstruct. The CPT can now consider the new information, Justice Chisholm said. In summing up, he said: “In my view these matters provide a compelling case for the court to intervene and grant relief.” Bishop Matthews says the church would consider the decision. “We are pleased the decision to deconstruct the old cathedral and rebuild a new cathedral was confirmed by the judge,” she said in a statement on behalf of CPT. “As we have said since March the new design will be a mixture of old and new and it will be beautiful.” -apnz

Sunday:

By Sam Morton Gridlocked car parks, thousands of animals, live music and rural trade exhibits everywhere you turn – welcome to the 150th Canterbury A&P Show. For three days of the year, the country comes to the city and showcases the best of the best for their urban counterparts. And by the end of today, more than 100,000 people, including a large representation of Mid Cantabrians, would have passed through the show gates at the Canterbury Agricultural Park, according to event organisers. Despite cloudy skies and cool temperatures, residents from Mid Canterbury turned out in droves for day two of the show, at Addington, yesterday. Show-goers strolled to all corners of the showgrounds to check out new activities, admiring the rural sights of livestock grooming, woodchopping and other activities as they went. Food stalls, school tours, a tractor driven shuttle bus trailer, face painting, pet displays and children entertainment lined the grounds - forming the country’s biggest A&P show. Show president Richard Lemon, of Dromore, said he was thrilled with the event and said everything had gone to plan. “We had a top day yesterday (day one), terrific crowds and seeing all the people turn out here with the smiles on their faces was fantastic,” Mr Lemon said. “There has been a lot of positive talk about the show among show-goers, exhibitors and competitors, which is really pleasing to hear. “We are expecting tomorrow (day three) to be very big with the added drawcard of Prince Charles and his lovely wife Duchess Camilla coming to the show,” he said. Other highlights at the show yesterday included the popular Hunts and Hounds event, which had show-goers circling the main arena to grab a glimpse of the lively action. However, organisers are expecting the biggest turnout today as people celebrate Canterbury Anniversary Day and attend the third and final day of the show. Yesterday, many Christchurch schools also closed their doors to take the children to the show and experience the 150th event. In its largest year yet, the show featured almost 7000 livestock entries and 600 trade exhibitors.

Royals get to experience rural New Zealand By APNZ and Fairfax Prince Charles and his wife Camilla’s brush with rural New Zealand during their visit to the country this week gave the royal pair a chance to taste jam, hold a kiwi and meet with Royal New Zealand Airforce personnel and their families. More than 300 staff and family members waited at the Ohakea Airbase hangar for their Highnesses to visit yesterday afternoon, in the last of their stops in Manawatu during their tour of New Zealand. The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall began their day in a sunny Feilding, driving along Manchester Street to the town square. Manawatu District Mayor Margaret Kouvelis and Rangitikei MP Ian McKelvie were on hand to welcome them on arrival. Working the crowd with consummate ease, Charles and Camilla chatted, shook hands and accepted flowers from the adoring throng.

Feilding woman Ann Loader managed to shake Prince Charles’ hand, but missed out on a close encounter with Camilla. “He’s got a firm handshake. I thought he might break my fingers.” But the temperature and excitment of the day got too much for one elderly woman who fainted while waiting to catch a glimpse of the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall. The royal couple was treated to an array of events in Feilding. They viewed entries to the Right Royal Rural Mailboxes, spoke to farmers about crops and livestock, which included the sheep, bulls and horses on show, and watched performances from local schoolchildren. There was also a showing from Feilding Farmers Market, with the couple tasting many of the wares and speaking with stallholders about jams, wine and plants. The pair visited the War Memorial and met Anna O’Donnell, the sister of Lieutenant Tim O’Donnell who was killed in Afghanistan in 2010.

“They were really lovely to talk to. Prince Charles said to me ‘Young men go off to war and you can’t stop them’,” said Ms O’Donnell. “It was a really awesome experience.” From there the couple divided, Prince Charles going for a tour of a Cheltenham Farm and Camilla driving to Palmerston North to visit Massey University. The Duchess, wearing a moss green housecoat with a matching knee-length dress and pearls, visited the Equine Research Centre, Wildbase and the Equestrian Centre. During her tour through Wildbase - a facility where injured and sick native and endemic species are treated and rehabilitated - Camilla got to handle an injured Kiwi, which was brought into Wildbase on Saturday with a swollen hock and foot. And then on to Ohakea where they met with Royal New Zealand Airforce personnel and their families. Prince Charles arrived ahead of his wife and, although he was running late, took the time to speak with everyone waiting for him.

He was joined by RNZAF chief, Air Vice-Marshall Peter Stockwell and Commanding officer Captain Darren Webb. Flight Lieutenant Sam Paterson said it was thrilling to have the Prince visit the base. Prince Charles asked him and his wife Sarah about life on the base, and asked whether he was able to spend much time with his toddler Eva and baby Quinn. “It’s amazing how personable he’s been,” Mr Paterson said. Air Vice-Marshall Stockwell said it was an exciting day for air force staff. “Because it’s our 75th anniversary, the Prince was really keen to spend as much time as he could with the air force. Despite a long day at public events, Prince Charles maintained a dapper look, with a black and silver diagonally striped tie and pink carnation in his buttonhole. He and the Duchess then boarded an RNZAF Boeing 757 and flew back to Photo AP Wellington. Today they will visit Christchurch. Britain’s Prince Charles (right) speaks to a family member of Lt.

OUR VIEW

SBW a true professional By Coen Lammers

editor

I

t will be good to see Sonny Bill Williams back on our television screens next year. The former Canterbury Bulldogs star, former Crusader, former World Cup winning All Black, former Chiefs Super rugby champion, former French and Japanese rugby recruit and emerging boxing talent, is heading back to the NRL in Australia. For a man of 27, Williams seems to have done more in his brief career than 10 other athletes achieve in a lifetime. Sports fans in Australia and New Zealand seem divided over the rampaging ball career as many adore him for his talents and his looks while others despise him with a vengeance. Much of that comes down to pure jealousy as everything the New Zealander touches has turned to gold, but many, especially Canterbury Bulldogs fans, have never forgiven him for walking out on his league contract in 2008 to join French rugby club Toulon. Williams is the ultimate professional athlete. Anyone living around Bankstown in Sydney will call him a mercenary, but more enlightened observers will recognise that the athlete and his manager Khoder Nasser are simply maximising the limited time a player can perform at the highest level. In Europe or North America, few would raise an eyebrow over Williams’s quest for new challenges and bigger pay cheques, but in these parts we still cherish the old amateur values of loyalty to a club, code or province.

OPINION

English concedes gaps nal breach of trust. Mr English said despite a need for more monitoring, the evaluation being applied to Whanau Ora is of a much higher level than most other social spending. “It’s been set up with a lot of structure and checking around it - all of which are good things; but we need to apply that same standard to all the other programmes. “If performance measures haven’t been met then there will be an expectation they need to adjust their practise and their method in order to get on and meet them.” Mr English said the Whanau Integration, Innovation and Engagement fund (WIIE fund) was being held accountable in

By Kate Shuttleworth Finance Minister Bill English has conceded money given to atrisk families under the Whanau Ora scheme could be better monitored and evaluated, after it was revealed a Dunedin gang member used $20,000 from the fund to buy cannabis. Korrey Teeati Cook, 36, admitted indictable changes of dishonestly converting $20,000 of trust money, conspiring with others to sell cannabis and two charges of possessing cannabis for supply. He was sentenced to three years and three months on the cannabis charges, and an additional nine months for the crimi-

line with the Government’s better public service targets. He said Whanau Ora was under pressure to perform because there was a lot of public interest in the scheme. An evaluation by Te Puni Kokiri (TPK) of the WIIE fund was presented to Maori Affairs Minister Pita Sharples on September 14. TPK interviewed families who had received grants and found there was good evidence the WIIE fund was helping families, but found there were performance, monitoring and reporting gaps. It also found the funds were being unevenly allocated across New Zealand - a high-needs area like Northland was only receiving seven per cent of the funding.

Families can apply for up to $20,000 from the WIIE fund to achieve goals such as breaking a cycle of violence, leading a healthier lifestyle, or giving up gambling. The fund distributed $4.9 million in 2010/11, $7.7m in 2011/12 and was expected to be allocated $6.4m for 2012/13 and $8.4m in later years. The funds came under question earlier this year when it was found Mongrel Mob members had misused Whanau Ora money. The TPK evaluation found the fund is “still evolving” and needed better administrative tools. Green Party co-leader Metiria Turei said a much more rigorous system of monitoring and evalua-

Unfortunately, these values often clash with the modern sports arena of supply and demand. Sonny Bill Williams is in demand while athletes with his physicality, his freakish talents with a ball, and his marketability off the pitch are scarce. Williams’ manager Khoder Nasser is doing miracles for his bank balance but may also be damaging for his reputation. Nasser has a long history of smelly, murky, backroom deals and Williams is often tainted by the actions of his manager. The move to Toulon in 2008 could have been handled better and a different manager may have constructed a far less controversial and inflammatory exit. Because of this incident and Australasia’s tall poppy syndrome, Williams has become an undeserving target. The man is the real professional, and any coach, journalist and sponsor who ever had to work with the big fella will testify how humble, polite and helpful the former All Black is. He also has a big heart and will accommodate most requests from schools or charities when possible, selling off his clothes, shaving his hair, or just coming along for a training session. Or is the bloke just too good looking for his own good? Surely, if he was blessed with the roughed face and cauliflower ears of a Scottish front-rower, he would not be dealing with so much criticism.

Scramble for quake cash By Kurt Bayer

Pedestrians get priority in post-quake Chch By Kurt Bayer Traffic will be slowed and pedestrians given priority in post-quake Christchurch under a draft transport plan the public is invited to have their say on. Earthquake Recovery Minister Gerry Brownlee says the Accessible City draft Transport Plan, released yesterday, prioritises streets for buses, cycles, pedestrians, and then cars to improve travel across the rebuilt city. Cathedral Square will be “largely pedestrian” as will Cashel St, in a push to give pedestrians priority on central streets. There will be walkways to Hagley Park running along Avon River,

tion needed to be introduced into the scheme. “If they don’t, there can be no justification for continuing this funding.” She said misappropriation of public money happened across the board and was not, on its own, a reason to undermine the Whanau Ora scheme. “What is shows is TPK needs to tighten up on its processes. It needs to provide support across all the community organisations that are involved. “The way Whanau Ora is set up is there is a lot of local decisionmaking, but there’s not a lot of support at a national level for the data collection and the management of that money,” said Ms Turei. - APNZ

the Christchurch Central Recovery Plan when it was launched in July. But the Christchurch Central Development Unit (CCDU) has pushed through its vision for transport since then, incorporating parts of Christchurch City Council’s draft transport plan. Now, the public has until February 1 to comment on the plans and make contributions, before a final plant is passed on to Cabinet in March. Public transport routes and infrastructure will encourage bus travel to and from the central city. The Bus Interchange will be located in the block bounded by Tuam, Colombo, Manchester and Lichfield streets.

It will also cater for inter city coaches, airport transfers and taxis. City centre routes will be high frequency and every 10 minutes in peak periods, with bus stops on every two city blocks. “It won’t be hard to get around,” says CCDU director Warwick Isaacs. The plan includes capacity for 6000 off-street parking spaces, including several parking buildings. A “super stop” will be near the hospital with good access to the Metro Sports Facility, health precinct and South Frame in the blueprint. Manchester St will be widened, Tuam St made one way, while

Kilmore St and Salisbury St will transform into two-way routes. Street signs will be in both English and Maori. The city council is also considering repairing the heritage tram system. Mr Brownlee said the plan was another milestone on the road to recovery. He praised the inclusion of two traffic speed limits, with a top speed of 30km/h in the CBD and 50km/h on arterial routes. Neither Mr Brownlee nor Mr Isaacs would say how much it will cost to implement the plan, until after the consultation period. The final cost will be shared by government, Christchurch City Council, Environment Canterbury

and the NZ Transport Agency. Mayor Bob Parker gave cautious support to the plan, saying the public now had to “get stuck in” and have their say. He said the overall vision was “very close” to the acclaimed Share an Idea scheme earlier this year which invited the public to say how they wanted their rebuilt city to look. All the elements were there, including a cycle-friendly city. It just now needed to be implemented, he said. Mr Parker said the speed limits and the one-way streets could cause controversy, as it was thought the one-way systems were “canyons that divided the city”. -apnz

Post-earthquake Christchurch community groups and projects are scrambling to get a slice of $37 million earthquake appeal cash, after its trustees vowed to have it allocated by 2014. The Government’s official global fundraiser, Christchurch Earthquake Appeal Trust, which was launched just five days after the killer February 2011 shake, has raised more than $100m from other governments, world leaders, celebrities, families, individuals, clubs, and businesses. It has already handed out millions to worthy causes, and yesterday (Wed) the trust reported on its progress and financial statements for the 15 months from establishment to June 30, 2012. The report shows $47m of funding has already been approved for 112 projects, over a wide range of interests, including heritage and culture, sport and recreation, education and youth, hardship, spiritual and youth, and economic revitalisation like the world renowned Re:START shopping container mall. The fund has $53m remaining, but has pledged $14m to specific projects, leaving $37m in the bank. The trust, which looks to help projects that assist the transition between the disaster and a rebuilt city and would otherwise take years of community fundraising to address, says it remains committed to supporting Canterbury through the “different phases of recovery” from the earthquakes. “Trustees are considering the future focus of the Appeal Trust to ensure that the remaining funds assist Canterbury’s long-term recovery through community projects that benefit many, and we expect to allocate the majority of funds by 2014,” Christchurch Earthquake Appeal trustee Dr Rod Carr said. “Appeal funds remain available for projects, and speaking as a Cantabrian as well as a trustee, this is positive. “Canterbury’s recovery is progressing at a sustainable pace and it is important that appeal funds be available to communities when they are ready and able to define their ongoing needs.” -APNZ

Fire safety lesson Water rights ‘need to be sorted’ ends in porch blaze By Adam Bennett

By Tessa Johnstone A fire safety lesson gone wrong threatened the lives of a mother and her two young children while they slept in the early hours of yesterday. Featherston Fire Brigade chief Colin McKenna said the fire at the South Wairarapa cottage was caused by fire ash left on the back porch, which ignited and caught the back wall and roof of the home, including a gas bottle. An explosion heard by neighbours is thought to have been the hose of the gas bottle exploding. Joy Mebus owns the cottage in Western Lake, South Wairarapa, and rents it to a mother and her two children, aged 9 and 10. She understood the mum had been teaching her children about fire safety the night before. They had cleared ashes from the fireplace after the lesson, and then left them on a barbecue on a back porch. It is thought the hose of the gas bottle caught fire and exploded.

“About 5.30am, I heard this woosh and I thought there was a balloon going up the air. I flew out of bed on to my balcony, but didn’t think anything more.” Herd manager Gary Sullivan, who had just finished milking and also heard the “woosh”, jumped on his quad bike, raced over to the house and woke up the family before calling the fire brigade, said Ms Mebus. “He’s the real hero,” she said. Mr Sullivan used a hose on the fire, and Mr McKenna said his quick thinking helped contain the flames until the brigade were able to travel the 25km from Featherston to extinguish it. Ms Mebus said the fire brigade, neighbours Neville and Annie Davies and Mr Sullivan had done an amazing job. It was lucky no one was hurt and a reminder that ashes and embers take 10 days to cool and should be put in water. “I’m just grateful that nothing happened to them. I don’t care about the rest, I’m insured, and even if I have to lose my excess, it’s not worth lives.” - APNZ

A key document on the future management of fresh water has left the issue of Maori rights and interests in the resource for the Government and iwi to sort out. In its third report released yesterday afternoon, the Land and Water Forum also says it failed to reach agreement on whether users should be charged for water. The forum comprises of more than 60 representatives from the farming, industrial and tourism sectors, conservation groups and iwi. Its report notes an enduring water management system “must resolve the question of iwi rights and interests”. However, it goes on to say “We accept that iwi rights and interests in fresh water are being addressed through direct engagement between iwi and the Crown”. In a statement on iwi rights and interests in water the forum noted it made a series of recommendations regarding the involvement of iwi in developing national objectives for water management and setting of limits. However it acknowledged those recommendations did not address rights of iwi to access water for customary and commercial use. The forum also noted that the

transition to a new system of allocation “should proceed hand in hand with Crown iwi discussion on iwi rights and interests in freshwater management. The forum’s report today dealt specifically with how to allocate water and manage its quality, “including ways to ensure that freshwater management encourages investment, incentivises efficient practices and contributes to economic growth”. However, it said it had discussed the question of taxes and charges for water use “at some length” but had been unable to reach a resolution. Some members of the forum objected to water charges because activities that depended on water use generated wealth and employment and water users already paid taxes and rates. Members in favour of charging argued that the benefits of water use needed to be better shared with the wider community. However the forum was in favour of local authorities overseeing markets for the trading of water rights after they were first allocated. It argued that would allow water rights to move to owners who would employ them for their highest value use. The forum’s report contained 67 recommendations in total dealing mostly with how central and local

government should implement the water allocation regime it set out in its previous reports. It agreed to meet again in July next year to assess the Government’s response to its reports and to consider whether it could do more work to improve water management. Forum chairman Alexander Bisley said the report “fleshes out the detail of a new consensus for a major reform of water laws and practices in New Zealand”. The forum’s recommendations would enable “integrated decisionmaking in catchments, continuous improvement of management practices and clearer rights to take and use water within set limits”. The three reports were “a comprehensive and detailed blueprint to maximise opportunities” from fresh water for farmers and fishers, power generators and recreationalists, citizens and tourists, cities and industries. “We want to grow the economy and improve the environment. Our recommendations apply to both urban and rural catchments. They provide for iwi to play their role as Treaty Partners and stakeholders.” Primary Industries Minister David Carter said the forum’s work “provides a solid foundation from which to progress the Government’s strategic direction for water management, with the support of a broad range of stakeholders”. -APNZ

Man sought over woman’s death By Hana Garrett-Walker The man being sought after the violent death of a woman in Wellington may pose a threat to the general public, police say. The body of 33-year-old Amanda Dawn Taufale was found at a house in Sunrise Boulevard, Tawa, just before 8am yesterday. The mother of two sons, a 15-yearold and a six-month-old, died a violent death, Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Oxnam said. He would not say how she died, but said a post mortem examination would be completed this morning. Police would like to speak to 38-yearold Ernest Smith, who is believed to be a close friend of Ms Taufale. Mr Oxnam said police did not know what role Smith played in Ms Taufale’s death, but said if anyone knew where he was, they should not approach him. Police would also like to hear from anyone who might have seen his blue Toyota Corolla, registration GMB108, near Sunrise Boulevard or the Takapu Road Railway Station, since Wednesday. The car remains next to the railway track.

Ms Taufale’s two sons were at the scene at the time of her death, and a family member called police. Police did not know if Smith was the father of either boy. Mr Oxnam said it was too early to say what happened. “The fact is she’s died a violent death, and yes we do have concerns for the general public because if whoever’s done this has committed one violent crime, there’s nothing to stop them doing another one.” Smith was described as a West Indian, of solid athletic build, and currently had a short haircut. Mr Oxnam would not go into detail about the relationship between Ms Taufale and Smith. “All we really know is they’re associates.” Police were not ruling out the possibility that Smith had fled on the train. Mr Oxnam said he did not know if police had been called to the Sunrise Boulevard home in the past, and he would not go into detail as to whether Mr Smith was known to police. Police had not yet located the murder weapon. Police appealed for anyone who may have seen or heard anything to come

forward. “Of particular interest is anyone travelling on trains this morning between 7 and 8am who may have seen anything around the vehicle ... a blue Toyota Corolla hatchback, registration GMB108.” A neighbour whose home overlooks the property said she heard a bang about 7.40am. The woman, who did not give her name, said it sounded like a car backing into another car, but she had the television on and could not be sure. Police cordoned off two scenes, one at the Sunrise Boulevard property and the other a vehicle near Takapu Road railway station. Another neighbour said her neighbours - who she did not know - had not ever been a problem. Arohata women’s prison sits about 200 metres behind the home, and a large childcare centre is across the road. Earlier yesterday the police investigation briefly delayed commuter trains north of Wellington. Tranz Metro closed the Kapiti line at Takapu Rd for six minutes from 8.50am at the request of police, a Tranz Metro spokeswoman said. - APNZ

Far North paedophile faces preventative detention By Peter Jackson

offending ... that has occurred in New Zealand in the past.” The Pamapuria community was thrown into turmoil at news of Parker’s arrest earlier this year. An independent report released last week found Pamapuria School had failed to protect its students. It concluded that Parker was able to continue abusing young boys partly because of his close relationship with the school’s principal and his role as deputy principal and kapa haka leader. There was no evidence offences had occurred at school. Warnings had been flagged as early as 1998 when Parker started teaching at Oturu School in Kaitaia. But his habits of showering with boys staying at his home or sharing a bed with them ‘marae-style’ sometimes went unchallenged because Parker had an adult girlfriend, the report said. -APNZ

A former Far North deputy principal could be sentenced to preventative detention for sexually abusing young boys. Self-confessed paedophile James Parker bowed his head and wept in the dock when he appeared in the Kaitaia District Court yesterday. Some of his victims looked on from the public gallery, flanked by their families. The former Pamapuria School deputy principal was to have been sentenced after earlier pleading guilty to 49 charges of sexual offending against boys. However Judge Greg Davis noted that 23 new charges had since been laid by police. His young victims are now thought to number at least 20 in offending that spanned 13 years.

Parker’s lawyer Alex Witten-Hannah told the court no pleas would be entered to the new charges until the court had given a sentence indication. Five of the new charges against 37-year-old Parker allege sexual violation. Some of his victims were younger than 12 years old. Parker was remanded in custody to March 13 for a sentencing indication and for the court to consider jurisdiction. Judge Davis said a pre-sentence report recommended preventative detention for Parker. However the District Court did not have the jurisdiction to impose preventative detention. If such a sentence was to be imposed Parker’s case would need to be referred to the High Court. Judge Davis said it was difficult to find a comparable case to the prolific abuse committed by Parker. “I have not been able to find similar

Little hope for $439.4m unable to source much of the documentary evidence for trading and investment holdings that it needs to complete a full picture of what looks to have the characteristics of a Ponzistyle scheme, where investors were paid out at least in part using other investors’ funds. “Withdrawals by investors during these periods (the last five years), appear to have largely been funded by pooled funds which include the contributions made by other investors, coupled with the sale of investments,” says the report by the receivers, who were appointed by the High Court last week to secure as best they could the Ross assets. “This is of concern given the group’s inability to meet further withdrawal requests made by investors in the last six months.” Amongst records found were a number of investments with lower values than the original cost prices recorded by Ross. “Furthermore, we have evidenced from recent contract notes of the group, trading losses on a number of shares, many of which appear to be low value and high risk stocks.” The Ross group’s database purports to show investments worth $449.6 million, of which $152.4 million is said to be held in Australian investments, another $136.1 million in Canada, some $156.4 million in the US, $3.8 million in New Zealand, and $943,332 elsewhere. Of this, some $437.6 million was held by a Ross group subsidiary, Bevis Marks. However, assets worth just $10.2 million, and $200,000 in cash deposits, had been identified in the receivers’ initial searches, which they described as a matter of “considerable concern.’ - BusinessDesk

By Pattrick Smellie Court-appointed receivers have found records for just $10.2 million of the $449.6 million in investments purportedly managed by Ross Asset Management, a boutique Wellington investment firm run by David Ross, who has been hospitalised since a Financial Markets Authority raid on his premises earlier this month. Preliminary investigations also suggests $60 million more was paid out by Ross to investors than was taken into his investment funds over the past five years to September, with a $24 million deficit of repayments to contributions in the past year alone. John Fisk and David Bridgman of accounting firm PwC recommend that rather than spend more on the receivership, which has already cost $107,355, that the various Rossrelated entities be placed in liquidation on the basis that the investment fund is “insolvent” with “a very significant shortfall identified to date as owing to investors.” “The returns to notified investors over the last 12-plus years would appear to be unrealistic and in all likelihood aggregated or falsified,” their report says. “The Ross Group is currently unable to return even a small fraction of the reported value to investors.” Ross, formerly a share broker, managed funds on behalf of 900 privately wealthy individuals. A table in the 27 page report shows management fees averaging $4.4 million a year were paid in each of the last three years, and that fees had run at well above $1 million a year since 2004.

All 28 pilot whales stranded in Golden Bay have died, after their pod became trapped at the high tide mark on Farewell Spit yesterday. Eleven died in the first hour and another a short time later. The Department of Conservation (DOC) yesterday afternoon confirmed a decision had been made to euthanise the remaining 16 whales, and programme manager Hans Stoffregen said DOC was disappointed at the outcome. The whales were destroyed yesterday afternoon. Earlier yesterday, Mr Stoffregen said something must be wrong with the whales, as pilot whales can usually survive for days in the same conditions. “It’s unusual that they would die so quickly.” Mass whale strandings are not uncommon at Farewell Spit. They swim into the relatively shallow water during high tide, but the tide recedes very quickly and they become stuck on the sand. In January, more than 80 whales died after a mass standing of 99 pilot whales at Farewell Spit. Pilot whales can grow to five metres in length. - APNZ

By Jamie Gray Fonterra said it would not comment on a report that it was talking to China Investment Corp regarding participation in the upcoming Fonterra Shareholders’ Fund, other than to say that it was talking to a large number of institutions. A Wall Street Journal report out of Beijing said CIC, a huge sovereign investment fund, was seeking a stake in the Fonterra Shareholders Fund and that it was in talks Fonterra with regards to taking a stake. The Journal said CIC’s overseas investments were linked to China’s growth prospects. In a statement, the dairy giant said the Fonterra Shareholders’ Fund offer was being made to institutional investors in New Zealand, Australia, and certain other overseas jurisdictions in Asia and Europe. The issue’s joint lead managers are undertaking a “bookbuild” by inviting

selected institutional investors and NZX firms to indicate the number of units they wish to apply for at a range of prices, Fonterra said. “Fonterra and the joint lead managers have spoken with a large number of institutional investors, as would be expected for an offer like this,” Fonterra said. “These meetings are confidential. However, until the bookbuild process has been completed, it is impossible to know what any institution’s ultimate intention might be,” the statement said. One New Zealand fund manager said it was highly likely that CIC would be on Fonterra’s list of approved investors. The cooperative is in the throes of getting its Trading Among Farmers (TAF) share trading scheme under way. TAF will involve creating the shareholders’ fund, which will allow non-farm investors access to the cooperative’s dividend flow but will not allow fund investors to gain voting rights.

The fund, which is expected to be worth not less than $500 million, has already attracted heavy investor interest, and brokers have had to severely curtail their clients’ applications for units. Fonterra’s offer documents say that no entity, other than Fonterra, can hold more than 15 per cent of the units on issue but it is not yet clear what the ownership split between individuals, institutions and “Friends of Fonterra” – former dairy farmers and sharemilkers – will look like upon completion of the offer. Local investors are already disappointed that they have been unable to secure the Fonterra units that they applied for due the intense demand for the issue. Sharebrokers have been tight-lipped about the bookbuilding process before the fund’s expected listing on November 30. “From what I can gather, the company is well in control of what is going on,” said one fund manager.

“They are very keen to get a good, clean listing.” CIC has several large investments in some big names around the world. It has a 9.4 per cent stake in Blackstone, a major investment and advisory firm and a 9.9 per cent stake in financial services firm Morgan Stanley. On November 1, CIC acquired a 10 per cent stake of Heathrow Airport and in January, it bought an 8.68 per cent stake in the British water and sewerage company, Thames Water. “The mission of CIC is to make longterm investments that maximise riskadjusted financial returns for the benefit of its shareholder,” the Beijing-based company’s website says. CIC does not normally take a controlling role or seek to influence operations in the companies in which it invests. “CIC’s fundamental approach is to hold, manage, and invest its mandated assets to maximise shareholder’s value,” it says. - APNZ

KiwiRail fails to find buyer for Hillside KiwiRail has failed to find a buyer for its unprofitable Hillside Workshops in Dunedin apart from the foundry operation, which it has conditional agreement to sell to ASX-listed manufacturer Bradken for an undisclosed sum. The heavy lift facility at the 7.2 hectare Hillside site will now be operated by stat-owned KiwiRail’s freight business and other operations will

be progressively closed down over the next few months as work is either completed or transferred to the Hutt Workshops. “Despite a rigorous sales campaign there simply wasn’t a buyer out there for the whole operation,” chief executive Jim Quinn said in a statement. “This will be very difficult for our staff and although some will be transferred to Bradken or the KiwiRail

Freight business, there will be redundancies.” A spokeswoman for KiwiRail couldn’t say if the sale price would be made public. Bradken already has foundry operations in New Zealand and will continue to do some work under contract for KiwiRail. There are currently 115 workers at Hillside.

The rail operator is on a drive to strip out $200 million in annual spending if it is to meet forecast earnings of $64.6 million by 2013. Shares of Bradken fell 0.1 per cent to A$4.55 on the ASX yesterday, valuing the company at A$772 million, and have declined 41 per cent in the past year. The New South Wales-based firm employs 6000 people worldwide. - BusinessDesk

Supreme Court sides with ComCom in Vector stoush Auckland electricity and gas network owner Vector has lost its final appeal against the way the Commerce Commission set starting prices for the new regime regulating prices for its monopoly services. But Vector will live to fight another day on more substantive issues being argued in a High Court merits review which has been running in parallel to the legal arguments over how the commission has applied its regulatory powers. The commission welcomed the unanimous Supreme Court decision confirming it is not required to determine a methodology for the various inputs it uses to determine the starting prices for

regulated prices of monopoly electricity and gas networks. However, the court rejected the commission’s earlier arguments that it could not have done so. Instead, it confirms the commission may choose to do so if it wishes, giving Vector a minor win in a long fought action that it has otherwise lost. “It’s a bit disappointing,” Vector chief executive Simon Mackenzie told BusinessDesk. “We move on now to saying the starting price adjustment is part of the merits appeal process.” Hearings on the merits appeal, which involves other monopoly network providers including ports, airports and

national grid operator Transpower, have been ongoing in recent weeks in the Wellington High Court, with decisions likely early next year. “The materiality of the merits decision is the more substantive” for Vector, said Mackenzie. “If you see big adjustments (to starting prices), there must be big changes to the inputs that we need to understand.”. Commission chair Mark Berry said the Supreme Court ruling “finally allows the commission to complete aspects of the regulatory regime which will promote the certainty that the legislation anticipated” for both electricity distribution and gas pipeline businesses.

The final report on the reset of electricity default price-quality paths is scheduled for November 30, with a final decision on the default price-quality path for gas pipeline businesses is scheduled for release in February. Mackenzie said the appeals were an important part of bedding in a new process, but Berry said the delays caused by Vector’s actions “had the effect of allowing some businesses to continue to charge their customers too much”, while “some businesses which we believe should be able to charge more in order to invest in their networks have not been able to increase prices.” - BusinessDesk

Drop in farm sales By Ben Chapman-Smith New Zealand farm sales have fallen for the third consecutive month and are down 10 per cent compared to last year, according to figures out yesterday. The Real Estate Institute of NZ (REINZ) said there were 30 fewer farm sales in the three months ended October 2012 than in the same period last year. A total of 256 farms were sold over the three months, compared with 269 in the three months to September, and 318 in the three months to August. Numbers are up on a yearly basis though, with a total of 1,410 farms sold in the year to October 2012, which is 28.6 per cent more than the previous year, the REINZ data showed. The drop in sales last month was more a reflection of the timing of sales at the start of spring than a sign of any particular trend, said REINZ spokesman Brian Peacocke. “Based on the levels of activity in October we would expect a lift in sales in November as properties go unconditional. “Levels of listings are generally good, although several regions report insufficient stocks of good sheep and beef properties to meet buyer demand.” Dairy farms stocks are currently higher than demand in some areas, he said. The median price per hectare for all farms sold in the three months to October rose 10.1 per cent compared to the previous three months, from $18,041 to $19,872. Compared to October 2011, the median price per hectare increased by 5.3 per cent. The REINZ All Farm Price Index rose by 5.3 per cent compared to September, from 2,708.97 to 2,852.46. Compared to October 2011, the index increased by 6 per cent. Only three regions saw an increase in sales compared to September, led by Nelson with three more. Grazing properties accounted for the majority of sales, making up 50.4 per cent of total sales over the three months. - APNZ

Xi Jinping takes helm of Syria regime fire on rebels China amid reform calls By Christopher Bodeen Xi Jinping became China’s new leader yesterday, assuming the top posts in the Communist Party and the powerful military in a political transition unbowed by scandals, a slower economy and public demands for reforms. Xi was introduced as the new party general secretary at Beijing’s Great Hall of the People a day after the close of a weeklong party congress that underlined the communists’ determination to remain firmly in power. He and the six other men who will form China’s new collective leadership, all dressed in dark suits, walked in line onto the redcarpeted stage. Xi’s appointment as chairman of the military commission, announced by the state Xinhua News Agency, marked a break from the recent tradition of retiring leaders holding onto the post for a transitional period to extend their influence. It meant outgoing leader Hu Jintao would relinquish all positions of power, giving Xi broader leeway to consolidate his authority. The once-a-decade leadership change was carefully choreographed. It became clear Xi would lead China five years ago, when he was appointed to the Standing Committee — the nation’s apex of power — as the highest-ranked member who would not be of retirement age this year. Xi’s colleagues in the new Standing Committee are Li Keqiang, the presumptive premier and chief economic official; Vice Premier Zhang Dejiang; Shanghai party secretary Yu Zhengsheng; propaganda chief Liu Yunshan; Vice Premier Wang Qishan; and Tianjin party secretary Zhang Gaoli. In a speech broadcast live on Chinese state TV and worldwide, Xi said, “We shall do everything we can to live up to your trust and fulfill our mission. “There are also many pressing problems within the party that need to be resolved, particularly corruption,” Xi said. “We must make every effort to

solve these problems. The whole party must stay on full alert.” The other six leaders were expressionless with their arms at their sides during Xi’s 20-minute speech, then smiled to the audience when they walked off stage. The son of a party elder, and vice president for the past five years, Xi will lead the world’s No. 2 economy and newest diplomatic and military power amid increasingly vocal calls for economic and political reform — including from within the 82-million-member party itself. At ease in front of people and with colleagues, Xi takes over the party leadership from the stiff, technocratic Hu, and is expected to assume the largely ceremonial presidency in March. The ascent of Xi and Li, the premierin-waiting, represents a generational change. Though they spent their youths laboring on farms, their university years and early careers took place when China was casting off the planned economy and turning to the free market and to the West. They are thought to be more open to new ideas than their predecessors, but nonetheless bound by China’s consensus-oriented politics. Thursday marked only the second tidy transition since communist rule was established in 1949, despite a turbulent political year that saw the downfall in a murder and corruption scandal of rising populist Bo Xilai, who had been seen as a key contender for the new leadership slate. The outgoing Hu oversaw a decade of turgid economic growth and urban development and tried to make concern for ordinary people the hallmark of his tenure, but he also will be remembered for harshly stifling dissent and rolling back civil liberties. At the same time, increased social freedoms have created a generation of Chinese who are more aware of their rights and more vocal about demanding them. - AP

Syria’s regime has unleashed tank fire and air strikes on rebels as it slammed France for recognising an opposition bloc formed in Qatar which it said amounted to a “declaration of war”. Tanks shelled Palestinian refugee camps in opposition-held southern Damascus yesterday, while fighter jets bombed Maaret al-Numan, a town near Turkey that rebels captured last month, a watchdog said. Rebels killed at least 18 soldiers as they overran a military post near another Turkish border town that rebels have seized, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights. Damascus slammed France’s recognition of the newly united opposition and said the Qatar meeting at which the dissident factions united on Sunday amounted to a war declaration. “The Doha meeting was a declaration of war. These people (the opposition) don’t want to solve the issue peacefully through the mechanisms of the UN,” Syria’s deputy foreign minister Faisal Muqdad told AFP. Muqdad said of the French move: “This is an immoral position. They are supporting killers, terrorists and they are encouraging the destruction of Syria.” Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev of Russia, a strong Damascus ally, criticised countries siding with the opposition and insisted Moscow was staying neutral. “We don’t support anybody in this conflict, neither President (Bashar al-) Assad nor the rebels,” Medvedev told a Finnish newspaper. French President Francois Hollande has said Paris recognises the coalition as “the sole representative of the Syrian people and thus as the future provisional government of a democratic Syria”. The question of arming the rebels would now “have to be necessarily reviewed ... in all countries which will recognise this government,” he added. US President Barack Obama said yesterday that Washington was encouraged by the new opposition coalition but is not yet ready to recognise it as the sole

legitimate representative of the Syrian people. “We’re not yet prepared to recognise them as some sort of government-inexile, but we do think that it is a broadbased representative group,” Obama told reporters. But he cautioned against the growing clamour for nations to supply weapons to the rebels. “One of the things we have to be on guard about ... is that we’re not indirectly putting arms in the hands of folks who would do Americans harm.” Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said the priority must be to end the bloodshed rather than form an opposition bloc which refuses to negotiate, following talks with Arab counterparts in the Gulf. “It is essential that an end to bloodshed in Syria is reached,” Lavrov told a news conference in Riyadh, adding that a plan to end the violence drafted at the Geneva meeting in June held the key. “There was no unification of all the opposition,” he said, charging that the National Coalition only “unified the groups represented in Doha”. The Gulf Co-operation Council – Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates – has recognised the coalition, but the Arab League stopped short of doing so, only saying it saw the alliance as “the legitimate representative of the Syrian opposition”. On the ground, tanks moved on the Yarmuk refugee camp and the neighbouring Damascus district of Tadamun after battles in the area late on Tuesday, said the Observatory. Shells struck a second refugee camp east of Yarmuk yesterday while fighter jets bombarded the Idlib province town of Maaret al-Numan, which rebels seized on October 9 and the army has since sought to take back. The latest clashes, which killed at least 18 soldiers near Ras al-Ain, on the border with Turkey, also left dead three rebels and wounded other combatants, said the Observatory. - AFP

No security threat from Petraeus, Obama says By Dave Clark US President Barack Obama has assured Americans the sex scandal that brought down CIA chief David Petraeus and ensnared another top general has not compromised national security. Petraeus, the most celebrated US general of his generation credited with turning around the war in Iraq, resigned last week to preempt revelations of an affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell, a married army reservist. The US commander in Afghanistan, General John Allen, is still under investigation over mails

he sent a Florida socialite who blew open the affair when she complained to an FBI agent of threatening emails from Broadwell. The scandal has rocked the Washington security establishment but, beyond any personal failings it may have revealed, Obama said he had seen no evidence it had harmed the security of the nation or its troops. “I have no evidence at this point from what I have seen that classified information was disclosed that in any way would have a negative impact on our national security,” he told his first media conference after his re-election this week. “General Petraeus had an extraor-

dinary career,” he said. “But by his own assessment, he did not meet the standards that he felt were necessary as the director of the CIA with respect to this personal matter.” Petraeus is due to testify to Congress later this week on the September 11 assault in Benghazi, Libya, which killed four Americans including US ambassador Chris Stevens and two former Navy SEALs working for the CIA. He took command of the CIA 14 months ago, retiring from the military after a storied career in which he commanded troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. In probing Petraeus and

Broadwell, the FBI happened upon a vast trove of messages Allen had sent Jill Kelley, a married “social liaison” for US Central Command in Florida who hosted parties with Tampa-based officers. It was Kelley’s decision to inform an FBI friend she had received threatening emails - that turned out to be from Broadwell - that led to the investigation into Petraeus and his eventual resignation. The White House has expressed confidence in Allen, after the fourstar commander was placed under investigation by FBI agents. The married general denies any sexual liaison with 37-year-old Kelley, but the volume of flirtatious

correspondence could amount to “conduct unbecoming an officer”, informed sources have said. Allen had been due to face MPs this week for a hearing to confirm his promotion to the post of NATO’s supreme commander in Europe, but Obama has put his career on hold until the Pentagon completes its investigation. MPs have accused the FBI of withholding information about the inquiry from congressional oversight committees, but Obama told reporters he could not interfere in the investigations under way and would await their conclusions. “I am withholding judgment with respect to how the entire process

surrounding General Petraeus came up,” he said. “And we don’t have all the information yet. But I want to say I have a lot of confidence generally in the FBI.” Petraeus resigned last week when it became clear his affair with Broadwell, who travelled to Afghanistan to write a fawning biography of him, would soon become public. Broadwell has hired Washington power lawyer Robert Muse to represent her. No criminal charges have been filed, but FBI agents searched her North Carolina home earlier this week and seized several boxes and pictures. US media reports yesterday sug-

gested some classified material had been found but nothing that would trigger a security alert. The emails Broadwell sent to Kelley suggest the biographer was jealous of the socialite’s rapport with generals, including Allen and Petraeus. US media reported that Broadwell had criticised Kelley to senior generals under the online pseudonym KelleyPatrol, including one mail to Allen in which she called Kelley a “seductress”. Broadwell was photographed yesterday in Washington, staying at her brother’s house, but has not addressed the media scrum camped outside. - AFP

Now is the time to do so with C New Zealand Holidays. Peter and Elaine Hulme have taken on the opportunity to provide Mid Canterbury with a unique look at the South Islands most beautiful attractions on their newly modernized coach, under the new company name of C New Zealand Holidays. Peter has been driving coaches for 10 years; he credits most of what he knows to his good friend, previous colleague and mentor Craig McKeich from McKeich Coach lines. Craig has helped him with the best practice for coach driving and ultimately inspired Peter and Elaine to take up the challenge of owning their own Coach line. Peter, who is now semi-retired, is thrilled at the concept of taking people of similar age around the South Island on his own coach. C New Zealand Holidays are set to run 12 day tours around the South Island,– experiencing the most beautiful attractions this Island has to offer. To begin your journey you will visit Kaikoura and the Whale Watching, you will then go up to Blenheim where you will enjoy the exquisite winerys on offer in the region, a day trip over to Wellington will be the next stop on the trip before heading down to Punakaiki where you will visit the blow holes and magical caves, along with the local seal colony. Then it will be straight down to the breath taking Fox Glacier where

a helicopter ride could be on the cards, next stop will be Queenstown where there is the opportunity for sight seeing, shopping and possibly a bike ride from Clyde to Chatto Creek. The tour will continue down to Milford where an overnight stay on a boat is an option, TeAnau is next on the list where you will encounter their friends the Glow worms. Then it’s onto Dunedin for Larnach Castle and the Penguins, Omarama, Mount Cook and Twizel will be in the final couple of days of the trip, finishing up back in Christchurch. C New Zealand Holidays have deliberately planned this itinerary to be as flexible as possible because Peter and Elaine want to be able to personalize each tour to suit the group of people coming along so when you call to speak with Peter about this don’t hesitate to ask him if you can do something else that is on your bucket list as he is very open to ideas and other activities Peter is hoping to run his tours every month from December to March.

Paradise found and room to grow! 5 Maynard Place An attractive and roomy home packed with features throughout, including timber skirting and doors, adding to the character and warmth. The home has a real family aspect with separate dining room, family room and lounge, together with four bedrooms all with built-in robes. There has been some double glazing down the south and east sides of the house. There is a bathroom and separate shower, and toilet room, ideal for those with teenage children. The upstairs has never been lined and has a large floor area which has only been used as storage and hobbies area. The area features an entrance to a patio with great vistas over the garden and surrounding area. Heating is by way of heat pumps, as there was an open fire when the home was constructed but this has since been sealed off. The “used brick look” and bay windows together with the verandah running along the side of the home make it interesting to look at, while providing plenty of places to sit outdoors. The home is located on a rear section being 996m² and very private, with mature gardens adding to the setting. There is also a large garage which could possibly hold four cars, or two cars additionally allowing for an excellent area for a workshop. There are several other out buildings and storage areas. The property has its own well for those drier summer months.

There is a lot of discussion at the moment around this topic. Is it better for the seller to put a price on their home or put it to the market without a price.

However unsure what the other offer is and we are seeing this process eliminates any purchaser who cannot prices above the asking price. be unconditional on the day but who may potentially pay more for the property. The problem that arises from this situation is that if the property requires a registered valuation for If there is no price, buyers often resort to looking finance purposes then it will struggle to value up and at Rateable Value to estimate market value. This is

an unreliable way, some are too low, some are too high and some are right. Sellers often look at other similar properties currently on the market but this is also unreliable in determining the market value for their home because they may sell above or below the advertised price. There is no easy answer to the question. It also depends on the circumstances with the seller at the time of listing the property. The answer is to spend time with the salesperson that you trust to sell your home discussing what is best for you.

They’ll be targeted at the set piece but despite their lack of games they’ve added technique to their natural physicality, and this will be about how they handle the big moments both ends. Wales didn’t look Six Nations champs hosting Argentina, failing to get over the stripe and overtaken late. They lost Roberts (injury) last out and his presence or similar will be needed in the centres to bash it up the aggressive Samoans. They were pushed to seven points in Hamilton in RWC and this could be close.

The Italians scraped past Tonga after the visitor copped two yellows. They’ll unlikely risk the air and will keep it tight and ugly. In Castrogiovanni they've at least got a scrum anchor and they’ll slow it up, bashing and niggling their way to holding NZ at the fringes and on their line. All Black coach Hansen's intention to give all 32 a run in the first fortnight might allow Italy to sniff a lack of continuity, but the probable return of Nonu, C Smith, and Read along with Cruden, Gear and co is too much fire power. They were held to margins around 20, both home and away, in ’09. This might be longer.

Absolutely smoked in France, Australia are backs to the wall again and coach Deans will be looking to return Pocock (doubtful), Ioane, Mitchell, and Barnes. If they can’t find the game that drew the ABs in October by rushing England's ball and pressuring them to mistakes behind the line they’ll come up short here too. Off a pack that on paper should have the wood the host is a huge hope. Only a one pointer prevented a 3-0 whitewash to England in Australia in 2010, but Australia are 2-1 in London since ’08. The visitors chance is that England return to their shell and play territory.

Scotland took an untested team into the NZ match and lit up the field for periods. The return of world class prop Murray next to Gray and Brown should increase the challenge to a weakened Springbok pack, as will the hard angled running of Visser and de Luca. Despite looking quite ordinary at times, short for ideas and step, the Boks got up late in Ireland, Lambie’s boot allowing it. They’ll attempt to tuck and run, while Strauss and Vermeulen will target the openings at the fringes that were found by the ABs. They’re 7-1 this decade over Scotland but went down last time they visited Murrayfield in 2010.

The Argies warmed up for this by dispatching Wales, thereby suggesting their RC inclusion has already paid. Lobbe was the best of a hugely talented loose forward mix and further out they’ve plenty of experience between Hernandez, Tiesi, and Bosch. They’re 6-4 the last 10 back to ’03, albeit they haven’t won in France for five years. The type of French side that concerns all turned out last week and dismantled the Wallabies. The power of this opponent pack won’t allow Michelak the same armchair and it will again be all about mood in what is always a mood match.

Sydney looked to have done enough at 2-0 hosting Victory entering the fourth quarter, then boom…they looked up and it was gone. Four or five aside, coach Crook hasn’t had the ammo, but its become a house of mirrors and he’s left. The numbers are undeniable; conceding 16, still two per game even if you discount the seven goal CCM blow out. Brisbane have been without Berisha and although two losses from three hosting, they’re four wins the last six over Sydney and perhaps bring marginally less issues right now.

Approaching the fourth quarter at AMMI hosting Roar in the wet things fell for Heart, 1-0 to 4-0, and perhaps enough to turn their season. They’ve a reasonable record at Hindmarsh, a win and two draws the last three. After evening it up early the second half via Vidosic, the Reds couldn’t find another hosting Perth, and were well tested the last quarter. Stylish interplay from the likes of Cassio, Carrusca and Neumann is getting backed by some fortitude (four goals allowed from six). They’re three wins to one over Heart although only one of those came at Hindmarsh.

Victory fired up after a couple of questionable rulings in Sydney with all of Thompson, Flores, Trarore, and Rojas building on the improved outing at their previous (Phoenix), along with a stand out from newish face Nabbout. Coach Postecolgou called it; ‘the best 90 minutes we've played’, and perhaps, but the opponent folded. CCM stayed patient visiting Wellington, unsuited in the chill and closed for much of it, before the grass opened in front of McBreen off a set piece early the fourth. They’re 4-3-2 over Victory the last two seasons but haven’t beaten them in Melbourne since ’09.

The skills of Ono and Hersi allowed WSW the front hosting the Jets but they just lacked some of their previous pop in the zone. They make you watch and play it straight like the coach (Popovic), who noted; ‘the second half was basically played in their half’, but at home, that’s when you need them in. Despite a number of decent attempts through the second half, Glory were held to 1-1 in Adelaide. They’re three from three hosting and might be able to exploit the Wanderers’ newness to a trip like this.

Sylvester Stallone (below) is Vietnam veteran John Rambo, a doe-eyed, ex-green beret loner who is wrongly arrested by an insolent small-town cop (Brian Dennehy). Soon enough, an abused Rambo escapes from lock-up and wages a one-man war against 1000 dumb-ass hillbillies and so-called law enforcers on a nearby mountain. One of Stallone’s underrated best. However morally irresponsible, it is well-played and gripping to the very end. Bravo!

Spectacular backdrop for country day

By Jonathan Leask

Cup week came to the country with a mixed bag day at the Ashburton Raceway yesterday. The Ashburton meet was a low key affair in cup week featuring non winners and maidens. Addington is home to the big guns in cup week while Ashburton is where the potential next big things get to strut their stuff.

The view shows why cup week goes country as David Butt has Billy Jack leading the field round the bend heading towards the home straight at Ashburton’s annual cup week race meet at the Ashburton raceway yesterday. Photo Tetsuro Mitomo 151112-TM-083

Fresh from his New Zealand Cup win, May had a solid start to the day despite a scare. Terry Chmiel got Up Wheels home for a $2.00 win in the second with May getting his first place of the day driving Bianca into second. May also came in second in race three with Hilarious Legend, however, it was not so funny for the driving legend when he copped a belt to the head pre-race, but May shook it

ARIES (Mar 21st Apr 20th) Mercury has reversed so far back it is now meeting the up-rushing Sun. This combination can see you grappling with financial fineries or anything to do with shared resources. But here’s the thing: because of the retrograde it is vital that you listen as well as say how you feel. In your urgency to express an opinion you may miss an important point.

SEllInG

TAURUS (Apr 21st May 21st) Admit it Taurus, when you feel strongly about something you can dig your heels in. But if you find yourself continually trying to correct the injustices in a relationship, as you see them, might it be time to try to accept someone for how they are? There’s a lot to be gained by meeting this person in the middle. You might get along rather better too.

GEMINI (May 22nd Jun 21st) There can be a lot more to situations than meets the eye. Therefore, don’t rush to judge anything. There may be a tendency to focus on a narrow strand of something when you would be better off staying abreast of the big picture. That said, this can be a good time to better inform yourself about courses, training or seminars linked to work.

CANCER (Jun 22nd - Jul 23rd) You may have felt one romantic possibility was at an end, but it could come back to life now. Maybe you both needed some space and some time to think. If so, do allow the other person their say. Then again, you can enjoy a spark of competition with someone. The creative pursuits of your children, if you have them, can see you supportive.

VIRGO (Aug 24th Sep 23rd) Mars is set to move into a really positive location, and with your ruler joining with the Sun, the next few days are likely to be very lively. If you are in the mood for a funpacked night on the town, this combination could put you in the mood. However, don’t be too quick to express your opinion, for what’s said in the blink of an eye can’t be taken back.

LIBRA (Sep 24th Oct 23rd) You have an inquiring nature and this is an excellent time to apply it to finding more economies of scale. Even prices or costs that you looked at recently can be evaluated in a different way now. Your mind is moving up a gear and this can help you to find solutions. Yet if someone close is too pushy about what they want you to do, it could grate on you.

Oliver still putting his hand out for more Brett Prebble spent about eight minutes on the back of Green Moon last Tuesday afternoon and earned A$360,000. Damien Oliver rode Happy Trails to success in the main race at Flemington on Saturday picking up A$60,000. Oliver, charged with breaches of the rules of racing that could cost

him his licence to print money, has owned bars, businesses, and more. Clearly there is big money to be made by good jockeys. But some simply can’t help themselves. Oliver bet with his own money, presumably, and there’s no suggestion he rode his own horse

suspiciously in the race on which he admits he bet $10,000 on the winner. Probably the only answer to the question of why a multimillionaire jockey wants to risk it all for a comparative pittance will be the simple one. Because they can. - AAP

LEO (Jul 24th - Aug 23rd) If you have been pondering making some home changes, don’t let things whirl around in your mind. Look to discuss your hopes and any fears you might have with family members or a close confidant. The worst you can do now is bottle up anything you feel raw about. If you do, you might find yourself getting unusually defensive or feisty.

with Robbie Holmes at the reins paying a whopping $12.20 for the win, and combined with Jaycees Belle at $18.20 and Mac Bubbles $2.10 for a $4812.20 trifecta. May finally scored a victory in the eleventh race with hot favourite Franco Nadal. The cup week focus returns to Addington today for the fabled free-for-all before the gallops have their New Zealand Cup at Riccarton tomorrow.

SCORPIO (Oct 24th - Nov 22nd) It may have been a case of two steps forwards and one back of late, and this has probably been character building if nothing else. Any delays or frustrations that you have encountered have given you lots of food for thought and you may have wondered when things would ever flow forwards. Well, now you can at least be clearer about your next step.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23rd - Dec 21st) You may not be the most introspective member of the zodiac but you can certainly be one of the most philosophical. If you take the time to ponder issues now you may be surprised by how much you learn about yourself. In fact, just slowly but surely, the last month is seeing you develop a greater understanding of both your own motivations and the ones of those around you.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22nd - Jan 20th) Hang onto your hat, Capricorn, Mars is about to enter your sign for six weeks of astral rock-n-roll. The turbulent moods you have experienced will be replaced by a new dynamism. Furthermore, if it has seemed like a friend was slipping out of your situation, a surprising about-turn on both your parts can soon see a reunion and happy chat.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21st - Feb 19th) Someone you had thought was much in your past could make a dramatic reappearance. This might not be a romantic possibility but this person has probably had a big impact on you. Then again, it can be something you learned long ago which comes to mind. Either way, what they stand for, represent or meant to you can seem so vivid.

PISCES (Feb 20th Mar 20th) You can feel really hopeful and progressive. Your mind can be very receptive to ideas and something you once considered to be unimportant can seem a lot more appealing. This is an excellent time to get off the beaten track, either through your interests or through physically being on the move. A change of scene can be a real breath of fresh air.

No surprises in AB line-up By Gregor Paul Kieran Read, as has been widely speculated, will indeed captain the All Blacks in their test against Italy on Sunday morning. His confirmation as captain carried as little surprise as the overall make-up of the starting team, which became relatively easy to guess given the stated desire to provide all 32 members of the tour with significant game time in the first two tests. By a process of elimination following the test in Scotland, it was apparent how the team to play Italy would shape up with the only possible doubt hanging over the make up of the back three. The final mix is intriguing with Julian Savea being picked on the left wing, Hosea Gear on the right and Beauden Barrett at fullback. The trio have played together for the Hurricanes in 2011 but the interesting part is the switch of flanks. Savea has extensive experience on the right having played there for the New Zealand Under-20s. Gear has predominantly been used on the left throughout his time with the Hurricanes, Highlanders and All Blacks.

All Blacks All Blacks team to play Italy at Stadio Olimpico, November 17: Beauden Barrett, Hosea Gear, Conrad Smith, Ma’a Nonu, Julian Savea, Aaron Cruden, Aaron Smith, Kieran Read (captain), Sam Cane, Liam Messam, Ali Williams, Brodie Retallick, Charlie Faumuina, Keven Mealamu, Tony Woodcock. Reserves: Dane Coles, Ben Franks, Wyatt Crockett, Sam Whitelock, Victor Vito, Tawera Kerr-Barlow, Daniel Carter, Cory Jane. But All Black assistant coach Ian Foster and head coach Steve Hansen have analysed Gear’s game closely and have hit on the theory that the giant wing is better suited to operating in the No 14 jersey. “We were always going to play those two guys [Gear and Savea],” says Hansen. “We haven’t had that luxury this year. We have always had the feeling that we have needed Cory [Jane]

• College behind 8-ball Ashburton College have a lot of work to do on day two against St Andrews in the Canterbury Secondary schools two-day competition at the Ashburton Domain. After being put into bat first on day one, Ashburton was dismissed for 118 before St Andrews piled on 255-9 declared for a 137-run lead before putting Ashburton back into bat and taking three wickets before stumps. Kirk Chettleburgh and Mark Mably will resume for Ashburton on 32/3, still 105 runs behind.

• Back to Wakanui After a few weeks rolling around the district the Tinwald Cycling Club returns to their usual stomping ground at Wakanui on Sunday. The junior and division two riders have 16km to cover before the open grade contests a 48km handicap around the Wakanui Beach Block.

out there for that experience. “Julian and H [Gear] have had quite a bit of rugby together now and it is time to see whether they can play as a partnership. We think the right side might suit H better than the left. “Some of the stuff we have seen him do and when he does his drills he seems to naturally be able to beat people on the right-hand side. “It is just a gut feeling. He’s comfortable playing there and he’ll give it a crack.” The original thinking was that Ben Smith would slot in at fullback but he has been ruled out due to a broken cheekbone - paving the way for Barrett to jump off the bench where he would be covering first-five and start wearing No 15. The challenge has been put to this side that they have the opportunity to push for starting places in the final two tests. Hansen was clear before the tour party left that selection for the games against Wales and England would be based on form. He noted a number of players delivered quality efforts against Scotland and the the likes of Aaron Smith, Liam Messam, Ali Williams, Brodie Retallick and Tony Woodcock will be conscious of the need to perform. - HOS

• Juniors still on court There is no interclub tennis this weekend but some players will still be getting out for a hit ahead of next weekend’s Gala Cup, the Mid Canterbury singles and doubles championships. Some of the junior players will still have tennis this weekend competing in the Canterbury Primary and Intermediate Tournament in Christchurch.

• Top start in tennis Mid Canterbury’s first crack at the Canterbury Tennis Challenger is off to a winning start. Mid Canterbury has three teams, two boys and one girls, in the Friday night competition but they have tonight off for the Canterbury show. The Mid Canterbury girls have made a strong start to be unbeaten after three rounds to be top of the table in the division one. In boys’ division two Mid Canterbury Blue has back-to-back wins after a bye in week one while Mid Canterbury Black has two wins from their three games.

Breakers chase club record

• No rugby for Benji

By Kris Shannon If shooting for a seventh straight win wasn’t motivation enough, Mika Vukona revealed the Breakers had a little extra incentive to beat Townsville tonight. The table-topping Breakers are one win from tying a club record winning streak and, on paper, the winless Crocs appear the perfect prey. The Breakers have already emerged victorious over Townsville twice this season, with their ninepoint triumph across the Tasman last weekend leading to the north Queensland club parting ways with their chief executive. Last season’s semi-finalists take an 0-8 record into the game at Vector Arena and, instead of pretending to care little about opposition records, Vukona disclosed it was a direct focus. “You don’t want to be the first team they get the win against,” he said. “Guys are really wary of that. Training’s actually been pretty intense this week because everybody knows what’s on the line.” You would have forgiven the Breakers if the opposite were true. Last weekend’s Sunshine Swing reaped two wins, which brought them back to the head of the Australian NBL and would have also brought equal measures of contentment and fatigue. But Vukona insisted that was far from the case and, once some cobwebs were shaken out earlier in the week, attention shifted to the task at hand. “The first day back was like the Monday blues - everybody got back and was looking a bit tired. “But after that, everybody’s been good.

Summer footy hits the park Mika Vukona: ‘You don’t want to be the first team they get the win against’ “We want to stay in the top place and we want to continue getting these wins. “We’ve got a tough schedule in January, so getting as many wins as we can up until then will really help us.” Getting another tonight may not be as straightforward as first appears. The flipside of beating a team twice was the chance of that team learning from their mistakes, something Andrej Lemanis was well aware of. “I don’t think we go down that path as far as thinking it’s a done deal,” he said of his side’s prospects. “Both teams will be very familiar with how each other play - and that’s why it’s hard to beat somebody three times, particularly in a short space of time.” Vukona, who last weekend played his 250th ANBL game, agreed with his coach and pointed to a couple of extenuating circumstances in their favouritsm. For one, neither of the Breakers’ two wins was comprehensive. Last month’s game at the North

Shore came down to the final possession, while Townsville hung around until late in the fourth quarter last weekend. Then there’s the Crocs’ prior experience at the Breakers’ home away from home. Something about the Vector Arena rims brings out the best in Townsville’s shooters, particularly in game one of last season’s semifinal series when the defending champions watched helplessly as the Crocs’ 57 per cent shooting led them to a 17-point win. “In this arena here, Townsville teams to have a good shooting output from it,” Vukona said. “They’ve come out and made great starts in this gym. “Everybody’s wary of that - they’re a team that have got weapons everywhere. “Every game that we’ve played with them so far [this season] has been really close. “Our offensive execution is getting better each game, so we can take that into the third game and hopefully keep them losing.” - APNZ

Lowry Cup attracts top field By Jonathan Leask It’s a long weekend and in Mid Canterbury it’s a big weekend of bowls. After being postponed earlier in the month the Lowry Cup men’s singles will have a conclusion and the top juniors will also vie for their place to be crowned the best on Sunday. The Lowry Cup will feature defending champion Bruce White who will be keen to keep hold of the trophy, but will have his work cut out for him in a field that contains former and potential first-time winners looking to lift the cup. White is joined by only one former cup winner in Roger Gutberlet, who won the tournament back in the 2004-05 season.

Draw winds up All Whites’ season By Michael Brown Yesterday morning’s 1-1 draw with China meant the All Whites lost only two of their 13 games in 2012 but it is one of those defeats that will define their year. Ricki Herbert’s side rounded out 2012 with a solid draw with China in Shanghai to take their record to eight wins, three draws and two defeats. On the face of it, it’s a good record but nine of those matches were against island nations and the 2-0 defeat to New Caledonia in the semi-finals of June’s Oceania Nations Cup has hurt not only the All Whites’ World Cup plans but also the coffers of New Zealand Football. Encouragingly, however, the All Whites seem to have learned from some of their mistakes in Honiara, and Herbert is more willing to utilise different formations like the 4-1-4-1 he employed against China yesterday and 4-3-3 away against Tahiti. He previously stuck almost religiously to the 3-4-3 that got his side to the 2010 World Cup finals. Their recent results have also highlighted the fact they are more comfortable in one-off games or across a campaign rather than rapid-fire tournaments. The All Whites played five games in nine days in Honiara in searing heat and humidity and didn’t cope. Contrast that with their ruthless efficiency in the four

stages, particularly as the World Cup qualifiers when hosts got in behind fullbacks they have won all four and scored 13 goals and conceded Ben Sigmund and Tony just one (in the 6-1 defeat of Lochhead, but had more than enough chances to win. the Solomon Islands).

RESULTS FROM YESTERDAY’S ASHBURTON TROTS P18 | BREAKERS HAVE TWO STREAKS IN MIND P21

Euphoria to anger for Thomson By Gregor Paul Disbelief and anger may now be the next emotion in the evolution of the prolonged case of Adam Thomson and his charge of stomping on Scotsman Alasdair Strokosch. The All Black flanker had been relieved, delighted even, to learn that he was only being punished with a one-week ban. But between receiving his punishment in London and flying back to Rome, everything changed. He arrived at the All Blacks’ Italian hotel to learn that the IRB chief executive Brett Gosper had been on Twitter announcing that the case would be reviewed as the governing body has the right to do. He’ll have to wait to see whether the threat from Gosper was real or a bullish response to some goading by prominent English media who took to the social media airwaves to express their outrage at the leniency of the ban. The IRB have the right to review any hearing but it has surprised and most probably angered the All Blacks that within minutes of the finding being made public, the chief executive of the governing body was already promising to investigate. “It has been a long day and at the end of it we clearly understand and accept

the decision that has been passed out,” said All Black assistant coach Ian Foster who had been helping Thomson with his defence. “It was a robust and thorough process.” Foster was clearly surprised to hear of the rumblings coming out of Dublin about a possible review of the sanctions but couldn’t offer any thoughts without knowing the full facts. Just as clear was the dejection in Thomson when he heard about the possibility of the whole sorry business being dragged back into the judicial process. A one-week ban meant he could stay on tour and hope that he may still enjoy more appearances in the All Black shirt. Now he can’t be certain that will be the case, and must now hope that his guilty plea, obvious remorse, immediate apology to Strokosch and previously clean record all hold up under more scrutiny. “I never intended to make contact with the player and I had a fair chance to make that case today,” said Thomson. “I’m happy I had that chance to state my case today and that I was listened to. “I am disappointed to have been suspended. I pride myself in the way I conduct myself on the field. “I have had a long career and a clean slate and then to get to this stage and blow up ... it is disappointing.” - HOS

Harness racing - it’s in the blood From the sideline By Sue Newman

Kidz Kartz driver John Morrison with Tiny Tim, hoping to make a name for themselves at Addington’s show day meeting today when they compete in the Kidz Kartz New Zealand Trotting Cup.

If you want to make your way in the harness racing game, you couldn’t find a better or bigger sponsor than New Zealand’s number one driver Ricky May. And that’s exactly who 14-year-old John Morrison will have behind him today when he lines up at Addington Raceway in an event that may well be showcasing tomorrow’s champs, the Kidz Kartz New Zealand Trotting Cup. John’s been driving Kidz Kartz for five years and this is the first time he’s qualified for the elite field of 11 to compete for the trophy. He’ll be joined by top young drivers from around New Zealand to race over 1000 metres as part of the line up of Christchurch Show Day races. His goal is to graduate from Kidz Kartz into the ranks of apprentice and junior drivers, and he’s doing everything he can to make sure any opportunities out there come his way. On Tuesday’s New Zealand Cup Day, John was there, working in the stalls, washing down horses post race. He’s happy to do the hard yards to make it to where he wants to go and says that jobs like that aren’t all work; you get to watch the races too. On Wednesday the 11 young champs had a trial run on grass at Riccarton and that gave them a chance to size up the competition. John’s the only Canterbury driver who made it through to the big event and with a North Island lad, is one of just two boys driving in the field. Dad Chris trains, so John’s been putting in plenty of practice behind his horses, but he’s also been working his own pony Tiny Tim, to ensure he’s in top form for race day. As he packed to head to Riccarton on Wednesday, John admitted he wasn’t nervous – yet. He’s driving in a cart his dad made and he’ll be wearing his dad’s colours – sized down to fit. Tiny Tim has every chance of helping John to a winning drive, but his manners might be tested, he said. If he gets away cleanly and keeps his mind on trotting rather than cantering, he’ll be in with every chance, John said.

Day of Plunket Shield drama ends in a draw By Kris Shannon After a final day featuring drama, rain and one of the rarest dismissals in cricket, Otago’s Plunket Shield match with Canterbury finished in an anticlimactic draw yesterday. With all three results in play and

with 70 overs to play and rain in the region, the fate of the match was always in question. The Volts started conservatively and Aaron Redmond’s 61 helped his side reached 117-2, before a quickfire double from Ben McCord pulled Canterbury back into the match. With 15 overs to play Otago needed 91 with six wickets in

hand and Jimmy Neesham looked determined to lead them home. But his dismissal and two more wickets saw Otago apply the brakes. The Volts were 33 runs short with three wickets in hand when Canterbury ran out of overs, drawing to a close one of the more exciting Plunket Shield draws. Earlier in the day, Canterbury

resumed with a lead of 216 runs and five wickets in hand but Peter Fulton, a centurion in both innings, was the first man out after adding only two to his overnight total of 106. There wasn’t much resistance from the Canterbury tail but there was some history. On debut, Will Williams achieved something man-
