Snowden to put belt on show

By Jonathan Leask Ashburton shooter John Snowden celebrated his 44th birthday on Wednesday but there was no point purchasing him a gift after he brought home his own present.

After 20 years of trying Snowden finally won the Ballinger Belt at the national championships at Trentham on Saturday, and was allowed to bring the belt, New Zealand’s

oldest sporting trophy, home to Ashburton.

Not only did Snowden, who won gold at the Delhi Commonwealth Games, win his own birthday present, he plans to share it.

Snowden, the first Ashburton winner in 140 years, plans to find somewhere to put the historic silverware on display to the public.

“Back when these trophies were made shooting was the biggest sport in the country. It was a bigger than rugby,” Snowden

said.

“You can tell that by the size of these trophies. They used to get in the vicinity of 600 shooters competing for the belt.

“But the sport is currently struggling for numbers so any way we can publicise the sport is good which is why I asked to bring the trophy home and I’m looking for a suitable place to put the trophies on display,” Snowden also won the Ballinger aggregate trophy having the best scores over the past

three years, the National A grade trophy after finishing top in the Ballinger qualifying and the long ranges trophy.

All equally impressive trophies but not with the same prestige as the Ballinger Belt.

The belt was presented in 1873 by the Government as a replacement for the first Government Champion Belt which was won outright by Capt Wales of Otago when he won for the second time in a row in 1872, the first and only shooter to achieve the feat.

It was won in 1893 by Arthur Ballinger of Wellington who then won it twice more, meaning he was entitled to retain it on the third occasion in 1907.

However, Ballinger donated the Champion Belt back to the National Rifle Association to be presented each year to the winner of the National Championships as the Ballinger Belt from 1908.

RIGHT: Quite the historic haul, John Snowden with his trophy haul from the nationals.

Births reverse ageing trend

By Sam Morton Ashburton birth rates are fast outstripping deaths, as Mid Canterbury sheds its image as the retirement home of Canterbury.

The district’s population continues to boom and the number of births continue to heavily outweigh the number of deaths every month.

In fact, figures released by Statistics NZ show more babies, registered in the Ashburton District regardless of where they were born, were being delivered compared to the number of residents dying – as has been the case for the past two years.

The latest figures clearly suggest Ashburton’s population is on a rapid rise and Mayor Angus McKay says he is thrilled.

“Not so long ago we all had fears for how we were going to look after and provide the right health and care services for our senior citizens and dementia residents.

“Now, it seems the Ashburton District is reversing the trend and that can only be great news,” Mr

McKay said.

Last year, as of September, a total 326 babies were registered compared to 214 deaths.

In 2011, 447 babies were registered compared to 228 deaths.

Intriguingly, only 136 babies born in 2011 were delivered at Ashburton Hospital, compared with 143 in 2012.

The remaining births were born in other locations such as Christchurch or privately at home.

About five years ago, Mid Canterbury experienced an extraordinary baby boom and the town’s two midwives were desperately struggling to juggle the hefty workload.

And now it appears a new baby boom has hit the district, with the Ashburton Parents’ Centre and other pre-schools anecdotally filling their centres fast.

But times have changed. The district is now in safe hands, boasting more midwives than ever before, with the count standing at seven fully qualified midwives available in Mid Canterbury.

Last year, some experts put

AOS assists in early morning raid on Beach Road home

By Sam Morton A Hampstead resident was woken by a police dog going crazy on her property, as members of the Armed Offenders Squad stood watch in her Beach Road backyard yesterday.

The resident, who did not wish to be named, said her dog was disturbed by the unexpected callout and started barking loudly and going mad, just before 7am.

Ashburton police carried out the search on the property next door to her’s and were backed up by the AOS, who had the neighbouring property surrounded.

Senior Sergeant Grant Russell, of Ashburton police, confirmed a search warrant had been granted and said an arrest had been made.

“No weapons were used at any stage, it was a standard search warrant and quite often we have the AOS there as back-up,” Mr Russell said.

“Somebody is talking to the police in relation to the search, yes.”

The resident described the situation as, “one hang of a wake-up call”.

New arrival: Kate and David Shaw are the beaming parents of this little one, Hahna Isabel Shaw, who is one of the district’s latest arrivals. Hahna was born on Tuesday and weighed in at 8Ib and 13oz. the baby increase down to the Rugby World Cup, while others suggested an influx of people to Mid Canterbury would inevitably result in more babies.

But whatever it is behind the spike, Mr McKay is confident the district will continue to grow long into the future.

As of June 30, 2006 – the district’s population stood at 28,000.

A year later the figure climbed to 30,100 and at June last year, a whopping population count of 30,600 was recorded.

It is widely expected the figure has grown even further in the past six months, but a Statistics NZ representative said the cur-

rent figures wouldn’t be available until later this year.

The annual change over the five year period totalled a 1.4 per cent increase, indicating that Ashburton is the third fastest growing territorial authority in New Zealand, closely behind Selwyn and Hurunui.

“The number of babies being born could indicate the younger generations are moving to Mid Canterbury to enjoy the lifestyle and snap up the many work opportunities available here,” Mr McKay said.

“Of course, as these babies grow up, the district’s services will have to expand as required,

but in the long term they will undoubtedly benefit the workforce in years to come.

“I think it’s really great Ashburton residents are choosing to have babies – that can only be great news for everyone,” he said.

At June 30 last year, the median age in the Ashburton District was 40.8.

The largest population group proved to be the 40 to 46 year olds, accounting for 10,300 or 33.5 per cent of the total figure.

Those aged 15 to 39 also made up almost 9000, while the 65s and over surprisingly represented only 17.6 per cent of the district’s entire population.

through the window, I saw all the men dressed in black and carrying guns in my backyard.

“At first I thought it was a couple of men relieving themselves around the back by the bush, but then I realised they had guns and that they were padded up.

“My dog was barking at the police dog through the cat-flap, it was quite funny really. They wouldn’t shut up, the dogs just kept on barking at each other,” she said.

The resident then heard the police megaphone echo around her house telling residents in the neighbouring property that the house was surrounded.

“I didn’t know where I was, it’s not something you expect to see every day ... especially at that time of the morning. It was most uncalled for,” she said.

Yesterday, speculation around Ashburton was rife as some residents discussed what they thought they saw or heard on the Classic Hits Morning Show’s Facebook page.

Comments suggested the squad was possibly carrying out a drug bust, but Mr Russell was unable to elaborate on the nature of the warrant.

Police are continuing their inquiry.

Chch tremor 11,000th since September 2010 Christchurch’s first major tremor of the year yesterday was the 11,000th aftershock since the deadly earthquake sequence started on September 4, 2010.

The “moderate” magnitude-3.3 shake just before 1pm was felt by more than 160 people across the recovering city, according to GeoNet. It was located 6km deep, and 15km east of Christchurch.

Rebuild Christchurch tweeted: “Did anyone just feel that aftershock? Rolled on for a bit ...”

Another user said: “Bit of a boomer here in Sumner”.

One Cantab posted on a TradeMe community thread: “South Chch, one littlie followed by few more slightly bigger. YUCK!” Another woman wrote: “Gave me a fright! First one I’ve felt in ages.”

The Christchurch Quake Map website claimed that the tremor was the 11,000th to hit the area since the magnitude-7.1 shake that sparked the Canterbury earthquake sequence more than two years ago.

Where’s summer gone to?

By Michelle Nelson Holiday makers and the junior tennis players in Ashburton for this week’s national under-16 competition may be wondering where summer has gone.

Yesterday’s heavy showers and occasional hail storms will have put paid to many outdoor plans, and according to Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers’ grain and seed spokesman David Clark, farmers

Footage helps to identify alleged thief The motel employee who had her belongings stolen has praised the Ashburton community for their quick actions in identifying the alleged culprit.

Tracey Shaw sent CCTV security footage to the Guardian yesterday in the hope that someone would recognise the thief’s distinctive clothing - and her initiative clearly paid off.

More than 250 people watched the video in less than 24 hours and just hours later – a name was forwarded to Ms Shaw, who then forwarded it to police.

Ms Shaw said an Ashburton resident contacted her friend on Facebook yesterday and revealed the supposed identity of the young man in the footage. She said she was grateful for their assistance.

Speaking to the Guardian last night, the Ashburton police were at the motel furthering their investigation about 5pm.

Ms Shaw, who was in a nearby office block, had her cellphone, wallet and $100 in cash stolen from the house she was temporarily staying at – in the absence of motel owners Jamie and Tania Dalzell.

“I know I won’t get any of my stuff back, but that doesn’t matter.

At least this creep is likely to be arrested and punished for what he did,” she said.

“Everyone has been so supportive since they’ve found out and it’s so encouraging knowing that the community will stick together and stick up for each other when it counts.

“It’s one of those things, but I’m just glad I could get the word out to everyone,” Ms Shaw said.

Police could not be reached for further comment.

with yesterday’s deluge not enough to cause the crops to go down and lodge.

“The rain will help livestock farmers; it should help the dairying guys get ahead of the irrigation for a few days,” Mr Clark said.

“We do need to crack on and we need some hot weather to dry things up – mud on the combine is a very bad sign for cropping farmers.”

More than 5cm of snow fell on Mt Hutt during the day, Mt Hutt Ski Area manager James McKenzie reported.

Today’s forecast is for clearing skies, and a return to summer temperatures for the weekend.

Builders busy at district’s schools

Builders work on a new office at Ashburton College as part of school renovations around the district.

The police investigation into the death of Rakaia dairy farmer Hamish Baxter may not be completed for months, as experts continue to piece together the accident behind the scenes. Mr Baxter died after losing control of his quad bike last week, minutes before midnight on his family farm.

Canterbury road policing manager Inspector Al Stewart said yesterday the investigation was likely to take another six to eight weeks, before the case is handed over to the Coroner.

Like all otherroad fatalities, investigators will cover all contributing factors such as alcohol, fatigue, mechanical errors and road conditions, Inspector Stewart said. The investigation was likely to be completed by the end of February.

• Parents bailed The parents accused of neglecting their four young children were bailed when they appeared in court yesterday.

The pair, who appeared in Lower Hutt District Court, face four charges each of neglecting their four children.They were supported by family members when they appeared separately. Judge Ian Miller bailed the mother to a relative’s home until later this month. The father has been bailed to a separate address. They were granted name suppression to protect the identity of their children.

The children, had been placed with Child Youth and Family caregivers.

• Dead before crash?

When classrooms are empty and pupils shut down for the holiday period, they may think the same happens at their school.

However, it is quite the opposite for schools around the district who are sprucing up classrooms and facilities before pupils file back into school grounds for another year of learning.

Wild weather and busy bodies can cause a bit of wear and tear around campus, so it is vital for people like Ashburton College campus manager Bill Kirk to keep on top of maintenance.

Mr Kirk has been run off his feet ever since the 1200 pupils departed on holiday in December.

Overseeing the painters, builders and other contractors who have come in to get the college in ship shape, Mr Kirk is taking advantage of the time and space.

“This is the only time of year we really get access to do this type of work, when the students aren’t around,” he said.

The college facelift includes a new coat of paint on several buildings, more space in the drama facilities and an added office to the canteen.

On top of that, the ceiling tiles in the staff room are being replaced and new carpet has been laid in some areas.

Mr Kirk said maintenance was an annual fixture for the college, who had to submit a detailed ten year plan to the Ministry of Education of the tasks they wished to carry out around the college.

Schools were then granted the money every five years which they spent on the areas they stated in their plan.

He said it cost about $25,000 each year, and the school also put money into other projects that needed doing around the campus, such as $12,000 spent on the drama room improvement.

Meanwhile, Hampstead School has been undergoing renovations along with Mount Hutt College which has carried out the usual maintenance work over the break.

One person is dead following a serious crash in Mairangi Bay in Auckland yesterday.

Police said the car hit the median barrier while travelling south on the motorway, coming to rest on the Constellation Drive onramp in Mairangi Bay. It is believed that the person died as a result of a medical issue.

• Good try A Barrytown man failed to persuade a judge that police had forged a photograph in order to prove his motorbike had strayed over the centre line. Police photographed Grant David Crook on his machine as it crossed the centreline near Punakaiki on December 22, 2011. Crook said the photo depicted a different bend to the one he had been stopped on, so concluded the police must have super-imposed a picture of his machine on the bend. Sentencing Crook in Greymouth District Court, Judge Paul Kellar dismissed the claim. He was fined the original $150 infringement fee.

74-year-old gains PhD with thesis on All Blacks

who have cut grass crops for seed, it was not a welcome sight.

“The early grass crops have been harvested but for those with grass cut and on the ground it’s a nuisance – those farmers must be gagging, they really needed this rain two weeks ago,” he said.

However, Mr Clark said many farmers will be happy about this week’s rain.

“For irrigated crops, still growing, this is a good rain,” he said.

“But it’s came too late for the bulk of dry land crops; the top has already been taken off the yield by hot days and nor’-westers’ earlier in the month.”

• Inquiry to take

A pensioner and former top rugby player has graduated from Massey University with a PhD, after completing his thesis on the success of the All Blacks.

Tom Johnson, 74, of Hawkes Bay, says he’s a bit embarrassed by the attention his age, and the subject of his thesis, has attracted.

His PhD in management centred on his doctoral thesis which examined the success of the All Blacks back 60 years - almost to the day he first heard of the national rugby team.

“Actually, it’s a wee bit embarrassing,” he said at his Taradale

home, shaking his swish of silver hair in about as much disbelief as he did the other day when mail arrived addressed to ‘Dr T. W. Johnson’.

The qualification adds more letters after his name, a list that includes MNZM - Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit, New Year Honours 2011, for services to rugby.

Dr Johnson, who enjoyed a postrugby administration stint as chief executive of Hawke’s Bay Racing, said: “One thing to come of this bit of publicity is that I have been approached by a number of people connected with national and regional sporting organisations to see if I could assist them, in unde-

fined areas. I’m happy to do that.”

It seems they find something appealing about his thesis on the Winning Ethos and Organisational Culture of the All Blacks (19502010), perhaps not so much because of another perspective on six decades of coaches and captains he interviewed along the way as the changing cultures they endured in rugby’s transformation from amateur sport to multimilliondollar business, and the All Blacks from team to brand.

He was able to separate it into three 20-year eras of All Black rugby, but highlighted the leadership shift which came with the Henry-Hansen-Smith triumvirate of 2004-2011, compared with the pre-

vious one leader-one way approach.

It hadn’t quite dawned on Dr Johnson as to how his own experiences with change, both as a rugby player and as an administrator, might have prompted this academic foray.

His 84 games for Hawkes Bay traversed two of the 129-year-old union’s extremes, a record walloping from the 1959 British Lions and the winning of the Ranfurly Shield in 1966.

Similarly, having been Hawkes Bay rugby union chairman when the second half of the 1972 Hawke’s Bay-Wallabies match became the first live television of first class rugby in New Zealand, his New Zealand Rugby Union council

Mid Canterbury anglers enjoy bumper season

By Michelle Nelson Mid Canterbury anglers are enjoying a bumper season, with salmon catches of up to 30lb (13.6kg) reported.

“That may just be a fishy tale, but the salmon are in good nick, and catches of 10kg (20lb) fish are not uncommon – in the past few years landing a 10kg fish has been a rarity,” Central South Island Fish & Game officer Hamish Stevens said.

He said conditions in the Ashburton River and at the high country lakes have been ideal for anglers this season, and the fish had fed well at sea before entering the fresh water.

“Good flows in the Ashburton River are helping things along, and the lakes are also fishing well. Lake Emma is fishing well after several poor years and people are catching good-sized fish, people are also catching fish in Lake Heron and Clearwater,” Mr Stevens said.

“The lakes provide a good option for anglers when the rivers are unfishable – due to water clarity, there have been times the Rangitata and the Ashburton have been unfishable.

Mr Stevens said anglers had generally been abiding by the rules, but while most had purchased a fishing licence, a significant number he had come across were not carrying them.

While there is no fine for this offence, the officer has the option of confiscating the offender’s fishing

equipment, and the offender has to produce a valid licence at the nearest Fish & Game office, both of which are an inconvenience.

“The message is keep your licence in your wallet or fishing bag,” Mr Stevens said.

Fish & Game intend to maintain their presence at popular destinations over the remainder of the summer and have several events planned to improve the overall rate of compliance.

career bounced from the cancellation of two All Blacks tours of South Africa and the troubled 1981 Springboks’ tour to the elation of convinced others around the table it was time there was a Rugby World Cup. Having seen the arrival of the professional rugby - and players at some levels paid way “too much” rugby still had change ahead, he believed.

“Sevens at the 2016 Olympics will promote rugby like it’s never been promoted before,” he said, acknowledging even more challenges for the All Blacks to stay on top of their game. “There will be countries that will flourish, and also become a real force.”

Restricted test tough going

By Myles Hume Complacency is to blame for the alarming number of learner drivers flunking their restricted licence test in Ashburton, says a local driving instructor.

Figures obtained by the Guardian show only 46 per cent of learner drivers in the Ashburton District were passing the harder restricted licence test since its inception 11

months ago. When the test was introduced in February last year, the initial pass rate slumped to a rock bottom 33 per cent and rose to 57 per cent in November before dropping to the current rate.

Safer By Far driving instructor Densie Farr blamed the poor pass rate on little preparation for the more rigorous test.

“Personally I think a lot of them are believing they are better than they actually are,” Ms Farr said.

“It’s a certain level of driving so if you are not fitting the level then you should not be driving because, as you know, you can’t fail a test if you’re good enough.”

In 2011, before the new test, 71 per cent of learner drivers were obtaining their restricted licence in Ashburton, 25 per cent more than the current rate.

“I would be interested in how many are getting education out of the 40 per cent that are pass-

ing. How many are taking lessons?

That’s what would be the real question,” Ms Farr said.

The New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) said it introduced the tougher test because previously “we were doing no favours with a once over lightly approach”.

Research from NZTA found young drivers with 120 hours of supervised practise on their learner’s licence had a solo crash rate 40 per cent lower than those who had

undertaken 50 hours.Ms Farr said she stood by the test that was putting more experienced drivers on the road and young drivers needed to come to grips with that.

“There’s still a bit of thought out there that the test is too hard, rather than lifting to the level, they blame the test.”

There were 307 fatalities on New Zealand roads last year, eight of those in Ashburton, featuring as one of the lowest tolls in recent his-

Parents get canny on back-to-school needs

By Myles Hume Ashburton parents are putting steps in place to avoid the financial horrors of the back-to-school period.

Pre-Christmas shopping and second-hand uniforms are part of the penny-wise plans local parents have been putting in place to ensure the costly time of year does not come to a head.

Uniforms are often ear-marked as the back breaker for parents at a time when stationery and school camps loom on the term one calendar.

Uniform shops in Ashburton have seen steady business since the New Year, but places like Postie Plus Ashburton saw sales peak before Christmas as parents looked to put the stresses of school uniforms behind them.

“I suppose it is a very expensive time of year for parents and many of them would be buying while they had a bit of money before Christmas,” Postie Plus manager Shelley Heney said.

Head to toe, Ms Heney said primary school uniforms could cost up to $150 per child while secondary school-aged pupils could have uniforms in excess of $1000.

Salvation Army Community Food Bank manager Judith Lilley said there had not been anyone seeking financial assistance for uniforms as of yet, but she was confident low-income families would seek the service in the coming weeks.

The charity’s family store manager Maria Macdonald said up to 12 families could visit the second-hand shop each day - all

Postie Plus Ashburton manager Shelley Heney says local parents have been shopping smarter this year for school uniforms.

Art scammers go door-to-door Beware of scammers peddling artworks door-to-door in Ashburton.

Cross Street resident Judy Edmonds was visited by a “very sweet” young woman selling artworks on Wednesday evening.

“She was very pretty, with dark hair and possibly a slight French or Israeli accent,” Mrs Edmonds said.

“She was on her own, and said she

was trying to get people interested in art – there was almost a religious bent to her spiel – she kept asking ‘what can you see in this painting’.

“She offered me the paintings for $140 and $160. There didn’t seem to be anything suspicious about her at all.”

Although she wasn’t interested in purchasing the painting, it wasn’t until this morning that Mrs Edmonds realised the

works, and the accompanying sales patter, were consistent with a scam which has been operating throughout the South Island for the last month or so.

The scammers usually claim the paintings are their own work, but in fact they are mass-produced and available online for a fraction of the cost.

Obtaining by deception carries a sentence of up to seven years.

Family in vigil for missing fisherman

By Nathan Crombie Relatives of a missing Martinborough man are yet to return home from a makeshift camp at the south Wairarapa bay where he went missing more than a week ago.

Tupara Kiel’s sister-in-law Rita Bragger said yesterday about 15 relatives were still searching for any sign of 72-year-old Mr Kiel and remain camped at Sandy Bay, from where he took to a choppy sea in an inflatable boat to check his cray pots a week ago yesterday.

She said family, including Mr Kiel’s wife, have combed about 40km of coastline every day since the abandonment of

looking to purchase second-hand uniforms. With school uniforms often falling outside the budget for many families, Ms Macdonald said they often found “bits and pieces” of uniforms which she believed had another year’s wear.

“I would think a lot of people come to us because it is just so expensive on top of other fees,” Ms Macdonald said.

“It’s an awfully expensive time and I would hate to be a parent bringing up kids today ... We sell T-shirts for about $2.50 each and winter kilts can cost between $8 to $15.”

Ms Macdonald expected more parents to seek used uniforms in the coming weeks as schools throughout the district opened their doors to sell school kits.

Uniform shops in Christchurch had reported a surge of families putting uniforms on lay-by until they could afford to buy them.

Tots to Teens director Annette Fyfe said they had “quite a few on lay-by” but it was on par with recent years. The main trend she had noticed was the pre-Christmas burst.

“I guess people wanted to be more organised this year but it was certainly something that has changed from other years,” she said.

Uniform shops open at Ashburton College next week along with other schools in the district.

“Something must be working because the deaths are decreasing aren’t they?” Ms Farr said.

Nerves sometimes played a part in people failing the restricted test, while other technical mistakes were the usual contenders, she said..

“I would presume selection at intersections like giveways and roundabouts would be the main ones, not stopping, being a little fast or a little too slow,” she said.

an official search on Sunday.

“We haven’t found a sock or shoe, an oar or lifejacket of his but we’re going to keep looking till we find him. We’re not giving up.” Mrs Bragger said.

“We’re staying in a bus and we have vans and tarpaulins out here. The locals have made sure we’ve wanted for nothing over the past week. We’re staying hopeful. We have to or we’d go crazy.”

Mrs Bragger said her brother-in-law was originally from Rotorua and had shifted to Wairarapa in the early 1960s.

The Ngati Kahungunu father of three, who was main speaker and kaumatua at Hau Ariki Marae in Martinborough, had launched from Sandy Bay with his dog named Ice Cream and about eight

hours later his car and trailer were found empty.

A police dive squad and fishing boats joined in the search by an RNZAF Orion aircraft that scoured deeper waters off the coast from early Friday after high winds turned around a helicopter search.

Christchurch police say there could be more to a serious road rage incident after the alleged attacker came forward to tell his side of the story.

A 37-year-old man suffered serious facial injuries when he was allegedly attacked on Johns Rd in Harewood on January 6.

The man’s 80-year-old father, who was the front-seat passenger, watched on as the incident unfolded.

The victim then managed to drive himself to hospital, where he underwent surgery before being discharged last week.

Detective Sergeant Mark Worner said a witness and the alleged offender had since come forward and were interviewed on Wednesday night.

Mr Worner said police would talk to the victim again today before making a decision on whether any charges would be laid.

“We haven’t had a chance to talk to him since he initially made his statement. He hasn’t been well enough to speak to.”

Mr Worner said he was pleased the other person had come forward.

“They said that they had made the decision to come forward because they wanted to tell their side of the story,” he said.

“If what they say is closer to the point, there’s a little bit more to it than initially reported.”

Mr Worner would not go into detail about the alleged offender’s version of events.

The victim told police last week that the incident took place after he overtook a blue Isuzu Bighorn truck, which had been driving very slowly down Johns Rd. The truck’s driver then took exception to being overtaken.

“He came up behind him and was tooting and flashing his lights, overtook him again, slammed on his brakes and forced him to pull over to the side of the road.”

The driver of the Bighorn allegedly assaulted the man on the roadside.

The victim is not expected to be able to return to work until next month.

Firefighters’ police stand heartening

By Coen Lammers editor

I

t is heartening to see that our rural police officers are not alone in dealing with difficult or explosive situations.

The local firefighters in Methven and Rakaia yesterday pledged their support for the boys in blue on the front page of the Guardian.

Firefighters, like few others, appreciate the tricky situations police officers can face during their working days and are often the ones standing just half a step away to provide the back-up in case the officer gets cornered.

Sadly this situation is happening more often than we like as the instinctive and traditional respect and fear for the strong arm of the law has disappeared.

Only a few years ago the appearance of a police officer would send party-goers scampering, but these days the police are more likely to be ducking to avoid the bottles thrown at them.

Unfortunately this development can be particularly stressful for rural police officers who have to deal with volatile scenarios on their own.

In recent weeks officers have been severely assaulted by drunken mobs in separate incidents and in the most recent one in Kawhia, the firefighters at hand had to come to the rescue of Constable Perry Griffin as he attempted to make an arrest.

In the ensuing confrontation, the police officer used his Taser but also lost his firearm which fortunately was not used by either party.

It does highlight the dangers of arming our police force and fuels the arguments to

OPINION

Police plea: Stop e-bail

By Andrew Koubaridis Police bosses have asked the Chief District Court Judge to stop putting people on electronically monitored bail because they are in danger of blowing their budget by almost $1 million - and cannot cope with the number already on bail.

A memo obtained by the Herald reveals Assistant Commissioner Operations Nick Perry approached Judge Jan-Marie Doogue last month to ask for “support” in capping the number of defendants on e-bail at 250.

The approach came after the 2012/13 bill for e-bail was estimated to exceed $3.9 million, surpassing the budget of $3.2 million.

The memo said police were worried they could not cope with 280 people on e-bail at Christmas - let alone the expected increase over the holiday period.

“Any increases to current work-

load activity levels, particularly to numbers of defendants on muster, will only serve to exacerbate these pressures.”

It continued: “It is our view that police are not in a position going forward into 2013 to manage even current muster levels and certainly not to increase the muster.”

Mr Perry then approved the cap of 250 in December and sought the support of the judiciary. The Police Prosecutions Service was told it was not to accept new applications from defence lawyers until further instruction, however Judge Doogue denied the judiciary agreed to the police plan.

“I have not agreed to any such requests, and in any event could not direct judges how to exercise their individual discretion in respect of such applications,” she said.

“Judges will continue to deal with individual applications as and when they are made.”

Mr Perry said the cap was some-

thing police had already been considering, but confirmed “the finite nature of police resources” was a factor.

Other reasons were the success of the scheme - the number on e-bail has risen to 280 since 2006 - and a bill going through Parliament codifying the rules around e-bail.

Mr Perry believed public safety would be maintained if the proposal went ahead. “The public can be reassured that police will continue to advocate appropriate bail conditions to minimise risk to public safety.”

Yesterday, he called the approach to the judiciary “prudent”.

“We notified the Chief District Judge but really there’s no way frankly we can tell judges what to do ... but [we] notified [them] of the situation we were in so they were aware of it if issues did arise.”

The move was effectively a submission. “It’s up to them really if they want to recognise that or

ELECTRONIC MONITORING Provides the courts with an option to bail remand prisoners on electric monitoring after they applied to the court.

It is an alternative to a defendant who has either had bail refused or has been remanded in custody because bail hasn’t been sought.

It works similarly to home detention and allows defendnot.”

Mr Perry said police and Corrections were considering merging their e-bail operations which hopefully would result in

continue not wearing sidearms. One interesting statistic shows that in 2006 in the United States during 82 per cent of firearms incidents involving police, it was their own weapon used against them.

Judging by that damning research and the latest incidents, it is unlikely the New Zealand Government will change its stand on firearms, but it does not solve the challenge of increased violence against police.

Introducing Tasers and tougher penalties for attacking police officers have been positive and increasing the number of officers on the frontline would be another good step.

But whatever the numbers of new recruits, New Zealand will always have places with just one officer on duty, so the real solution has to come from within our communities.

Thankfully the officers in Methven and Rakaia have a good relationship with fellow emergency personnel who will “put the hose on anyone kicking up a fuss”.

Putting untrained firefighters in that position, however, carries a risk and we do not dare to think of the consequences if any of them would get seriously injured or worse.

A possible suggestion might be to actually recruit, train and identify some of those firefighters to become assistant/reserve/part-time police officers.

If will give the police an increased presence in rural areas and avoid an untrained firefighter ending up in the wrong place.

A woman who “ruthlessly exploited” her elderly neighbour by nearly draining her bank account to play pokie machines says she’s happy with her sentence.

LIBRA (Sep 24th Oct 23rd) The Quarter Moon in your opposite sign of Aries is also embracing the energies of Mercury. This suggests that the responses you get from others can still be the area which is causing you the most uncertainty.

SCORPIO (Oct 24th - Nov 22nd) Words do not equal the sharing of true emotions.

It will be an emotional moment for two Masterton when they watch a Mosquito bomber aircraft flying at the Wings Over Wairarapa event this weekend.

The same type of rare aircraft flown by their uncle when he died when trying to fly from England to New Zealand in 1947 to say goodbye to his dying mother.

Squadron leader Bruce Berney, 31, was ferrying a DeHaviland Mosquito aircraft back to New Zealand from Britain after his involvement in World War Two. He was anxious to arrive back in New Zealand as quickly as possible as before his departure he was told that his mother was gravely ill.

Masterton’s Helen Dashfield and Jenny Logan are nieces of the late Bruce Berney, whose body was never recovered.

It’s believed he crashed while flying off the Gulf of Cutch in a monsoon storm.

The news of his death affected the family greatly and his twin sister, Barbara, never celebrated their shared birthday again.

Mr Berney and his navigator James Beadle, who also died, were tasked with ferrying one DeHaviland Mosquito back to New Zealand while another four Royal Air New Zealand colleagues brought back another two.

“When they came to get back to New Zealand they got as far as Karachi in Pakistan,” Mrs Dashfield said.

“They learnt that from there on until the next leg [in Bombay, India] the weather was going to be bad but my uncle said, ‘My mother is ill,’ and he went on while the others stayed behind.”

Mrs Dashfield was 13 when her uncle died and she said she remembers him as someone who played rugby, joked around and was sociable and fun.

“He was obviously an extreme risk-taker.

“To survive the war in the air for six years was a huge thing and then to go missing soon after was so tragic.”

Bruce Berney, who was highly decorated, flew more than 2220 hours and more than 90 solo missions in Mosquito aircraft. While in England, Bruce Berney became engaged to a New Zealand girl and planned to marry her on his return.

School community mourns tragic loss

5

!

By Kiri Gillespie and John Cousins Caitlin Dickson’s passion and commitment to help others was so strong that when she heard Bethlehem College was organising another volunteer mission trip to Kenya she had no hesitation about joining.

“She saw the opportunity and put her hand up,” one of the school’s teachers, Linda Anderson, told the Bay of Plenty Times.

“She was always thinking about others and how she could better their circumstances.”

But it was to be a trip that would ultimately cost Caitlin her life.

Tributes are pouring in for the 19-year-old former Bethlehem student and for Tauranga couple Brian and Grace Johnston after they died when their dream trip turned to tragedy on a rain-soaked Kenyan road.

The driver of the mini-van they were in lost control in heavy rain.

The vehicle rolled and ran into a ditch on Kenya’s notorious Nairobi-Murang’a highway at 11pm on Tuesday.

The trio were part of the Bethlehem College mission partnership programme with Kenya’s Ark Quest School in Mahanga, and among a group of 12 students from the school, accompanied by seven adults.

“It’s a little village school that’s had nothing, but through our visits and financial support, we’ve managed to build a strong network and helped kids top the league tables with their school results,” said Bethlehem principal Eoin Crosbie.

The group left New Zealand on December 28 for a four-week volunteer project building classrooms for the impoverished school.

They were just days away from returning home.

The tragedy has left their families and the Bethlehem school community in mourning.

Mrs Anderson, Bethlehem’s head of drama, said Caitlin got so much out of her experiences in Kenya in 2011 that she wanted to return.

She remembered Caitlin as having a lovely personality and someone who enjoyed helping people in need, including shaving her head to raise money for the teenage cancer support charity CanTeen.

Caitlin’s first trip to Kenya was as a college senior student.

This time the trip was on her own account.

Mrs Anderson also had fond memories of Caitlin’s enthusiasm as a drama student.

“She loved Shakespeare. She was the queen who reigned over a Shakespeare competition at school. She loved her drama and was very good.”

Caitlin was also a regular helper at the school’s mission fundraising sausage sizzle at the Tauranga Farmers

EASYPAY Caitlin Dickson was described by a friend on Facebook as a woman of amazing faith and love.

Market.

One of the people hurt in the accident, associate principal Philip Russell, had been the organiser of the sausage sizzle for many years.

The market’s manager, Trixie Allen, paid tribute to the work of Mr Russell and his team of student helpers who were there rain and shine.

“They do a brilliant job raising funds for the mission work. They are a brilliant bunch. I’m sure it will be a very low-key barbecue this Saturday,” Ms Allen said.

On Caitlin’s Facebook page, friends paid tributes last night.

On a photograph of the former student a friend had written “you have to be an angel”.

Laurence Matthew Dean posted: “I refuse to believe that I will ever meet a woman with such a staggering zest for life as you.

“You loved unconditionally, your dorky sense of humour was infectious, you were everything we could have asked for and more. We will miss you more than you could possibly know.

You will never be forgotten. I love you Caitlin Dickson, always.”

The Johnstons, who had 10 children, were heavily involved in the college and would attend most school events or functions. “Even if their children weren’t in them, they would still go along to support the others,” Mr Crosbie said.

All 10 of their children attended Bethlehem College, where two are still students.

“This will touch many people in the community. They were people who served others first as part of their Christian faith,” Mr Crosbie said.

Yesterday was the anniversary of Dr Johnston, an anaesthetist, starting with the Bay of Plenty District Health Board. He had been a staff member for 26 years at Tauranga and Whakatane Hospitals.

Health board chief executive Phil Cammish said Dr Johnston was described by colleagues as “the nicest

person you would ever meet” and someone who “would only ever give, never take”.

“Brian and Grace have also been described as ‘woven into the fabric of the Bay of Plenty’ and will be sorely missed”, Mr Cammish said.

Friend Jim Cairns-Nelson, an anaesthetic technician, worked alongside Dr Johnston for almost 15 years.

“I was quite close to him, so I was really shocked, to be honest.

“His two sons both play premier senior league with my son ... and my son is pretty shocked because they’re good mates.”

Mr Cairns-Nelson is involved with the Otumoetai Eels Rugby League Club, where Dr Johnston’s sons Mike, Phil and Chris are players.

Phil, in his late teens, was at the club’s first training session on Tuesday night.

Mr Cairns-Nelson said Dr and Mrs Johnston were very supportive of their boys, showing up regularly to watch their matches.

“Brian was a real league man. He’s a quiet man, but we used to talk Warriors all the time at the hospital.

“They’re just quiet, humble people.

“They’re just the best kind of people and parents you’d want your kids to be around.”

Mr Crosbie said he was working to get the school group home as soon as possible and planned to meet with families last night.

Both families have asked for privacy.

Details of the crash emerged yesterday afternoon.

Some of the group travelled behind the mini-van in a car and were also injured.

Two teachers were understood to have broken bones while team leader Mr Russell suffered concussion. The van driver, who was considered a member of the mission, also died.

One teacher, Gemma Tong, was from Rotorua’s Chapman College, which is modelled on Bethlehem.

Eighty-year-old cyclists knocks off trail in 9 hours 10 minutes

By Lynda Van Kempen Eighty-year-old Iain Hickey has joined what operators say is an increasing number of people cycling the Otago Central Rail Trail this season - the only difference is, he biked the whole length in a day.

The Omakau senior citizen took nine hours and 10 minutes to bike the 150km from Clyde to Middlemarch, two days after his 80th birthday.

“I’ve always been a bit of a biker,” Mr Hickey said yesterday.

His usual training was a “quick bike ride to St Bathans and back - about 80km” and he completed 200km a week in the lead-up to his big ride on January 3.

“Doing the rail trail in one day was on my bucket list and I’d wondered if I could do it around my 80th birthday.”

Eighteen years ago, he had heart surgery - a five-artery bypass, and nine years ago, after suffering with angina, he had four stents put in and a balloon angioplasty.

“I mentioned to my cardiologist that I thought I’d do the rail trail and he wasn’t too sure - he thought I’d turn it into a race ... but he didn’t say no,” Mr Hickey said. Two friends, Sarah Picard, of Alexandra, and Richmond Johnston,

of Wellington, biked with him. They were followed by a support crew which included his wife, Elaine.

He was well prepared and his kit on the bike contained a few essentials -muesli bars, asthma inhalers and his nitrolingual spray, in case of any angina attacks.

The cyclists left Clyde at 6.10am and arrived at Middlemarch at 4.50pm, stopping several times on the way. The task was completed in just over nine hours on the bike.

“It was a brilliant day, but I reckon I could improve on it next time and maybe do it in eight and a-half hours.”

On average, most people complete the rail trail in three days, biking 40km60km a day.

Mr Hickey leads an active retirement and says he owes it to the health professionals involved in his care, to keep fit and healthy.

“My attitude is, a lot of health professional people were involved in getting me healthy and I owe them a debt, so this is my pay back to them, to keep myself fit and active.”

He also took the chance to raise funds along the way, giving $670 to the Omakau Fire Brigade’s first response team “because I’ve been treated by them.”

Never one to rest on his laurels, Mr

Hickey is already planning his next challenge.

“I’ve got a sea kayak and I think kayaking around Lake Wanaka and the stretch of the Clutha river to the Clyde Dam would be quite an adventure.”

Travelling the rail trail in the opposite direction, starting in Middlemarch, is also on his list of things to do.

Rail trail trust chairwoman Kate Wilson, of Middlemarch, said the trail seemed busier than usual heading into the “peak” season, which is February, March and April.

“From my perspective, it’s busier than other years. More people are going self-contained, rather than booking through tour companies, and they’re going on the spur of the moment, rather than booking ahead for food and accommodation. “ Rail Trail Operators Group committee member David Ritchie, of Clyde, said “lots of people” seemed to be using the trail and he believed an increasing number of visitors was choosing to do just one section, as a day trip.

Tour operators were still getting a good share of the market, despite the increasing number of “independent bikers” and operators were happy with bookings for the peak season ahead, Mr Ritchie said.

Cops scale building to nab drunk A drunk man led police on a dramatic chase across rooftops in central Hastings yesterday, before he was tackled, cuffed and removed by a fire truck ladder.

The man, who told police he was a 31-year-old from Havelock North, was allegedly intoxicated and damaging cars in the central business district about 4.45pm when concerned onlookers called police.

Constable Andy Clinton said that when the man saw the patrol car, he tried to escape by running into The

Rotten Apple Backpackers.

“By the time I caught up with him he saw the car and shot up into the backpackers and a couple of the residents up there had indicated that he locked himself into the bathroom and wouldn’t get out.”

The man smashed the bathroom window to climb through, and made a getaway over roof awnings and verandas.

“He smashed a window to get out on to the awnings and we’ve kicked in the bathroom door to get to him,” Mr

Clinton said.

“We followed him out the window and basically chased him around here where he could go no further, and apprehended him.”

The man lay on his stomach and was handcuffed by two officers, before a fire engine arrived to safely lift him off the roof with the ladder.

Mr Clinton said the man was arrested and charges were likely to follow.

Crowds of people had gathered to watch the chase.

Kids help their parents to find love online

By Abby Gillies Kiwi sons and daughters encouraging their single parents to find love online are helping set up profiles to push their mums and dads into the dating game.

The number of people helping their parents find love online is on the increase for a number of reasons, internet dating website FindSomeone.co.nz manager Rick Davies says.

“With solo parent rates no doubt higher than they used to be, that’s no surprise to me. But also I’d expect these scenarios to decline in the coming years as the older generation become far more internet savvy,” he said.

Of those aged 35 to 55 on the FindSomeone website, 45 per cent were solo parents, Mr Davies said.

Many children were also helping out their parents by creating profiles for them on internet dating sites.

An international website, which aims to turn dating into a family affair, has drawn in New Zealanders playing cupid for their single parents.

Family membes can endorse their single relatives on MyLovelyParent.com.

It was easy to use, safe and gave insights into the person’s family relationships, said Englandbased founder Matt Connolly, 35.

He launched the site to help his own mother find love.

She is a “lovely lady” in her 60s, who has been single for more than 20 years.

“I was just sitting around the dinner table with my mum and

Fake refugees escape expulsion

By Jared Savage Just eight people have had their refugee status revoked after a longrunning saga involving a global people-smuggling ring which spirited hundreds of asylum-seekers into the country.

One of those who successfully appealed against the cancellation was identified in photographs as a high-ranking Afghan government official.

Evidence against him could not be shown to the tribunal governing refugee appeals because police lost the file.

For nearly a decade, Immigration NZ officials tried to cancel the refugee status of the asylum-seekers after a two-year police investigation codenamed Operation Amid.

The inquiry uncovered an AfghanIranian crime syndicate that smuggled hundreds of refugees into the country between 1995 and 2000.

The 7000 documents seized by police also indicated possible national security issues.

The asylum-seekers paid up to $30,000 each for forged papers to get them on a flight to New Zealand, where new identities and credit histories were provided by the smuggling ring.

Many destroyed their forged documents in flight and were granted refugee status on arrival, while others made it through border controls to start a new life.

A Department of Internal Affairs tip to police about possible passport fraud led to Operation Amid in 2000. Search warrants on 20 Auckland homes and businesses uncovered documents that suggested the refugees had lied about their backgrounds.

A parallel police investigation, Operation Beaver, led to Sarwar Rahimi, his wife, Lida, and her brother Javed Ahmadi being convicted of using documents with

intent to defraud in 2002. The trio admitted lying on their refugee applications.

Police did not press charges as a result of Operation Amid but passed the evidence to Immigration New Zealand, as the documents suggested 121 people obtained their refugee status fraudulently.

Insufficient evidence led Immigration officials to allow 98 refugees to stay but the refugee status of the remaining 23 was revoked.

Half of those had links to suspected people-smuggling, identity fraud, marriage fraud, fraud, theft and serious assault.

Figures released under the Official Information Act show that 15 of those 23 who had their refugee status revoked were successful in appeals to the Immigration and Protection Tribunal. One of those who had his asylum revoked, who is known only as AF, was originally charged with lying on his refugee claim. But police dropped the crimi-

nal charges because of fears he would not receive a fair hearing so soon after the September 11 attacks.

However, the evidence gathered against him was not able to be used in the immigration hearing because the police lost the file.

Included in the evidence were photographs identifying him as the Director-General of Borders in the Government of Afghanistan.

The Immigration and Protection Tribunal said evidence which was “of more concern” were documents seized by police that contained satellite telephone numbers which were used to infiltrate mujahideen groups.

“On balance, however, such ‘intelligence’ raises suspicions but no more than that,” the tribunal wrote in its decision to allow the appeal.

“AF has not been charged with any offence in relation to this material and no security risk certificate was issued.”

Overweight kids a growing trend

By Natalie Akoorie

my girlfriend and she piped up with ‘can you help me find my knight in shining armour?’. It was really cute,” he said.

He looked at several dating websites, but found them “riddled” with unethical behaviour and there were none he was happy to recommend to his mother.

So he set up his own, where members had full control of their information and profiles are checked and vetted, he said.

“It’s quite a 360 holistic picture of somebody. You can be whoever you want online, but this gives a layer of reassurance to people.”

Since its launch at the end of last year, membership had reached 1270 including a “a handful” of Kiwis, along with British, Americans and Australians.

Members can currently sign up for free, but a subscription element will be added to the site

e h t t e g

later this year.

Nick Cutts, 61, asked her daughter Natasha to create a profile for her on the website after hearing about it on the radio.

The divorced mother-of-four from Cornwall has been single for 18 years and found other dating sites “big and impersonal”, she told the Mail Online.

She also liked the family endorsement aspect of MyLovelyParent.

Mr Connolly said so far the feedback has been really positive.

“We have had feedback saying people are meeting up, which pretty much kind of melted my heart because it just shows it works.”

His mother too, is happy to have found a new way to connect with other singles, said Mr Connolly.

She is on the site and is enjoying chatting to members: “She’s loving it”.

Children as young as 9 are joining weight-loss programmes in a trend industry experts say will grow as children lead more sedentary lives.

The director of SureSlim New Zealand, Phil Pullin, knew of at least one 9-year-old who had come to its Pukekohe clinic with a weight problem.

Unlike weight-loss programmes Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers, lifestyle programme SureSlim has plans for children as young as 6, but most of its youngest members were in their teens.

He said weight problems among children was an increasing trend.

“In your suburban schools today parents are too busy to make kids lunch, so they get money for a pie and chips. They don’t do any exercise for a whole raft of reasons like people are a bit scared of letting their kids walk home.

“And then they go home and play on the computer. It’s just a whole lifestyle change.”

Fight the Obesity Epidemic spokeswoman Dr Robyn Toomath said figures showed almost 30 per cent of 2- to 14-year-olds had a weight problem in 2007, with 8

per cent obese. She said children joining weight-loss programmes was nothing to do with fashionconscious mothers concerned with their child’s image.

“There’s masses of data to show that it’s much more the other way, that individuals don’t think they’re overweight when they are, and parents don’t think their kids are overweight when they are.

“It’s much more that we don’t appreciate the extent of obesity.”

Dr Toomath said it did not surprise her young children were being enrolled in weight-loss programmes but she was skeptical about their success.

“The data shows adult weight reduction strategies which involve dieting programmes are basically a waste of time and money and my suspicion is they are similarly unhelpful for children.”

She said instead of asking people to lose weight she emphasised balanced nutrition including increased physical activity and a healthy diet.

Weight Watchers programme and delivery director Martha LoureyBird said weight loss was rarely recommended for children under 7 and adult-based weight loss programmes were not appropriate for most kids.

“It’s more about guiding them

towards increased physical activity and lifestyle change rather than dietary restrictions,” she said.

“In cases where a child is in need of a weight-loss programme, Weight Watchers requires children between the ages of 10 and 16 to have a parent’s signature and a doctor’s referral with a goal weight range before they can enrol in the programme.”

Jenny Craig New Zealand and

Australia managing director Amy Smith said both nations faced alarming statistics about the future health of the younger generation.

“But this isn’t an issue weightloss companies can solve alone. It needs the engagement of government health departments, healthcare professionals including dietitians and psychologists, schools, families and of course, parents.”

Islamists take hostages in Algeria In a desert standoff deep in the Sahara, the Algerian army ringed a natural gas complex where Islamist militants hunkered down with dozens of hostages last night after a rare attack that appeared to be the first violent shock wave from the French intervention in Mali.

A militant group that claimed responsibility said 41 foreigners, including seven Americans, were being held after the assault on one of oil-rich Algeria’s energy facilities, 1280km from the capital of Algiers and 1000km from the coast. Two foreigners were killed.

The group claiming responsibility said the attack was in revenge for Algeria’s support of France’s military operation against al-Qaida-linked rebels in neighboring Mali. The US defense secretary called it a “terrorist act.”

The militants appeared to have no escape, with troops surrounding the complex and army helicopters clattering overhead.

The group — called Katibat Moulathamine or the Masked Brigade — phoned a Mauritanian news outlet to say one of its affiliates had carried out the operation at the Ain Amenas gas field, and that France should end its intervention in Mali to ensure the safety of the hostages.

BP, the Norwegian company Statoil and the Algerian state oil company Sonatrach, operate the gas field. A Japanese company, JGC Corp, provides services for the facility as well.

In Rome, US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta declared that the US “will take all necessary and proper steps” to deal with the attack in Algeria. He would not detail what such steps might be but condemned the action as “terrorist attack” and likened it to al-Qaida activities in Pakistan, Afghanistan and in the United States on September 11, 2001.

Algeria’s top security official, Interior Minister Daho Ould Kabila, said that

“security forces have surrounded the area and cornered the terrorists, who are in one wing of the complex’s living quarters.”

He said one Briton and one Algerian were killed in the attack, while a Norwegian and two other Britons were among the six wounded.

“We reject all negotiations with the group, which is holding some 20 hostages from several nationalities,” Kabila said on national television, raising the specter of a possible armed assault to try to free the hostages.

The head of a catering company working on the base told the French Journal de Dimanche that helicopters were flying over the complex and the army waited outside. There were even reports of clashes between the two sides and a member of the militant group told the Photo AP Mauritanian news outlet the Islamists had already repelled one assault by The Ain Amenas gas field in Algeria, where Islamist militants raided and took hostages yesterday.

2 die in helicopter crash Monsoon to spell end Two people were killed when a helicopter hit a crane at a building site in central London during morning rush hour and plunged to the ground in a ball of flames, with an Australian and two workmen recounting how they escaped injury.

The crash happened yeserday near Vauxhall Station when an AgustaWestland 109 Power hit a high-rise crane at The Tower, One St George Wharf, one of Europe’s largest skyscrapers.

Stunt pilot Barnes, 50, who has piloted helicopters for movies such as Die Another Day, was alone in the aircraft amid thick cloud when it clipped the crane. It came down on land near to the building, with burning wreckage strewn across the road.

Barnes died in the crash.

A second man who died in the accident was named

by Scotland Yard o as Matthew Wood, 39, who is believed to have been walking to work when he

was killed. Twelve other people were injured and police said it was a “miracle” more were not hurt when the helicopter fell to the busy rush-hour streets.

The helicopter was undertaking a commercial flight from Surrey, but Barnes asked to be diverted to Battersea heliport because of bad weather.

Australian Patrick Gartland was cycling to work at the time. He said he and another cyclist took cover in a nearby bus shelter for up to 15 minutes as debris rained down.

“The helicopter was ablaze to the right of us,” said the former Melbourne resident who moved to UK seven years ago.

“Watching the helicopter cartwheel down and the first realisation there’s people in the helicopter and they’re not going to survive,” Gartland said.

Two other workers escaped injury because they - AAP overslept.

to Aussie heatwave It’s going to get worse before it gets better but Australia’s heatwave is set to subside with the overdue arrival on the monsoon season in the top end.

Today is forecast to bring extreme temperatures, strong winds and dangerous fire conditions ahead of a much anticipated cool change on the weekend.

Bureau of Meteorology weather services assistant director Alasdair Hainsworth said the extended period of extreme heat affecting large parts of the nation for the last fortnight will start to ease over the weekend.

“Unfortunately high temperatures reaching into the mid-40s over eastern Western Australia, South Australia, western Queensland and large parts of Victoria and NSW are expected,” Mr Hainsworth said.

• Slippery escape US firefighters cut through concrete and used a soapy lubricant to free a woman who fell and became stuck in a narrow opening between two buildings yesterday. The woman spent about four hours in the tiny space. Broadcast footage of the rescue effort showed her emerging, clenching her fists and shouting, “Oh, my God!” Firefighters said they hadn’t gotten a clear explanation of how the woman fell. Rich Chatman of the Portland fire department in Oregon said she had been seen smoking or walking on the roof of a two-story building. The woman was wedged about 1.2m above the ground before rescuers installed braces to support her. Firefighters turned on a portable heater to keep her warm in near-freezing temperatures and dropped an air bag into the opening to slightly spread the walls.

• 5.5kg gold nugget found A gold nugget with an estimated value of more than $300,000 has been unearthed near Ballarat, in Victoria’s west. An amateur prospector found the nugget weighing 177 ounces or 5.5kg with a metal detector just outside Ballarat in a popular area for prospecting. The owner of The Mining Exchange Gold Shop in Ballarat, Cordell Kent, said the find was one of the most significant in his 20 years in the business. “Over that period the sum total of my finds would be just over 100 ounces,” he told AAP. “We have 800 prospectors on our books and only a couple of those have ever found a nugget over 100 ounces.

“So there’s only been one or two big pieces and they were found a long time ago.” Mr Kent is seeking a buyer for the nugget on behalf of the lucky prospector.

A 95-year-old mob boss who authorities say boasted about killing 60 people in a lifetime of crime must serve his eight-year prison sentence after his racketeering conspiracy conviction, a federal appeals court said yesterday. John “Sonny” Franzese was sentenced last January after his conviction for extorting Manhattan strip clubs and a Long Island pizzeria while he was underboss of the Colombo crime family. The 2nd US Circuit Court of Appeals upheld his conviction, finding that it resulted from a fair trial and his sentence was proper. The court also upheld the convictions and sentencing of two others in the case. An FBI agent testified that Franzese bragged about killing 60 people over the years and once contemplated arranging his own son’s death after he became a government cooperator.

“This extreme heat, combined with strong, gusty winds ahead of the cool change will prove particularly challenging for firefighters who have been battling blazes for two weeks now.”

Mr Hainsworth said the late onset of the monsoon season had allowed hot air to build up in northern Australia.

But there is relief in sight with some cloud cover and rain expected in northern Australia on the weekend.

This will eventually flush out the hot air mass that has built up in the nation’s interior, causing sweltering conditions and risky fire conditions across NSW and Victoria.

Northern Territory climate services manager Joel Lisonbee said all indicators were pointed to the arrival of the well overdue Australian monsoon.

The introduction of Fonterra’s Trading Among Farmers (TAF) share trading scheme has added a new dynamic to the market for dairy farms, and has potential to put downward pressure on farm values, Real Estate Institute of NZ rural market spokesman Brian Peacocke said.

The introduction of TAF last November has been a spectacular success, and probably far greater than Fonterra could have anticipated, according to market participants.

The units, which do not carry voting rights and which can be owned by the public, last traded at $7.45 - a 35.5 per cent premium on their $5.50 issue price. The success of the units has rubbed off on the value of Fonterra shares, which can only be traded by farmers. The shares last traded at $7.42 compared with a pre-TAF “fair value” share price - set by Fonterra of $4.52.

buy more shares, or “share up” if they want to increase their production.

Other cooperatives have similar structures but Fonterra’s closest competitor, Westland Milk Products, has a set share price of just $1.50.

The Real Estate Institute (REINZ) said its All Farm Price Price Index - which it has developed with the Reserve Bank - rose by 0.4 per cent in the December quarter of last year, compared with the same quarter of 2011.

A total of 1454 farms were sold in the year to December 2012, 21.9 per cent more than in 2011. The median price per hectare for all farms sold in the three months to December 2012 was $23,070, a 12.8 per cent increase on the $20,445 recorded for the three months ended December 2011.

REINZ said the median dairy farm price fell to $34,483 a hectare in the three months to December, compared with $37,166 for the three months ended in November and $37,045 in the - APNZ December quarter of 2011.

Dairy product prices gained by 1.1 per cent at the Global Dairy Trade auction this week, adding more weight to the view held by currency analysts that the trend in commodity prices will underpin the value of the New Zealand dollar this year.

Govt keeps clear of laws to Coke looks at set maximum work hours NZ obesity ads

By Kieran Campbell The Government has ignored a recommendation by the United Nations for legislation to dictate a maximum number of work hours to reduce the risk to workplace health and safety.

Acting Labour Minister Christopher Finlayson would not comment yesterday on introducing the statutory work-hour limit, despite the call from the United Nations more than eight months ago.

Instead, the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment said the Government was intent on improving workplace health and safety with a review of regulations already underway.

In May last year The UN’s Economic and Social Council cited significant impacts on health and safety for the motivation behind the recommendation for new legislation.

Peacocke said TAF had introduced an aberration to the farm real estate market that could take six months to work its way through.

Before TAF, Fonterra farmers sold their shares and their farms as one, but now some farmers were opting to retain their shares.

“There is a trend emerging where some farmers will retain their shares when they sell their farms, so that will probably create a bit more uncertainty as to where the values are,” Peacocke told APNZ. “If the value of the shares increases, in our view that does not make the value of the whole asset increase in value. It simply puts downward pressure on the land value,” he said.

“So what we are going to see, as the season progresses, is more farms being sold without the shareholding, which is going to put another spin on where the value per hectare is,” he said.

Prospective Fonterra farmers need to buy Fonterra shares in order to supply the cooperative. Farmers also need to

“very long hours”. An OECD report found 13 per cent of New Zealanders (20 per cent of men and 7 per cent of women) worked more than 50 hours a week compared with an average of 9 per cent for all other countries.

“Evidence suggests that long work hours may impair personal health, jeopardise safety and increase stress,” the OECD report says.

Mr Finlayson’s office referred questions on work hours to the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, which reiterated the Government’s policy that “employment legislation provides flexibility”. A ministry spokesman said work hours were regulated by health and safety provisions for employers to ensure workplaces were safe.

The spokesman said the Government had “set an ambitious target of at least a 25 per cent reduction in fatalities and serious harm injuries by 2020”.

An independent taskforce reviewing workplace health and safety is due to report back to the Government in April

2013. Opposition labour spokeswoman Darien Fenton said the Labour Party supported statutory working hours limits only for dangerous industries.

Ms Fenton said the “by agreement” clause of the 40-hour week under the Minimum Wage Act made it “effectively meaningless”.

“Labour is concerned about weak regulation when it comes to health and safety and working hours,” she said.

Truck drivers and forestry workers were two industries where Ms Fenton said “long and dangerous hours contribute to deaths and injuries”.

Labour wanted to introduce industry bargaining where issues like working hours could be agreed across an industry, she said.

“My view ... is that unless the Health and Safety Taskforce, which the Government has set up to look at our appalling health and safety record, comes to grips with the need for more, not fewer workers’ rights ... all their - APNZ good work will be wasted.”

Coca-Cola is considering whether its new anti-obesity campaign will air New Zealand.

The soft drink giant this week aired a two-minute television ad in the United States which notes all calories that are not burned off by consumers, including those in its namesake soft drink, contribute to weight gain.

The US campaign has drawn some criticism, with one industry critic telling Reuters the move was “a full-blown exercise in damage control”.

But Coca-Cola said the campaign stemmed from its commitment to being part of the obesity discussion.

Coca-Cola Oceania spokesman Josh Gold said the company was evaluating the US campaign’s relevance to the New Zealand market.

“We’re going to take a look at it and see its impact and discuss it,” he said.

Zealand managing director George Adams said yesterday there was a “strong possibility” similar advertisements would screen in New Zealand soon.

The company has already put a number of policies in place in New Zealand, including front-of-pack energy labelling on nearly all of its products, low- and no-calorie drink options, and smaller packaging sizes.

Mr Gold said it also had a longstanding policy against direct marketing to children under the age of 12.

He said all Coca-Cola products had a place in an active, healthy lifestyle which included a sensible, balanced diet and regular physical activity.

“But all foods and beverages have the potential to contribute excess calories, so it is essential that consumers are mindful of the total quantity of calories they consume.”

“We can’t put this off any longer. I will put everything I’ve got into this,” Obama said yesterday, laying out the most sweeping gun control legislation in decades and daring congress not to defy public outrage and block his plans.

Obama signed 23 executive actions, using his presidential power in a swift effort to check a rash of gun violence including the killing of 20 children at Sandy Hook Elementary School last month and other recent mass shootings.

And he challenged congress to enshrine enduring reforms into law, including renewing and bolstering a ban on assault weapons, and closing loopholes that permit 40 per cent of gun sales to take place without background checks.

“This will be difficult,” Obama warned, unveiling measures drawn up by a task force led by Vice President Joe Biden at a White House event attended by gun crime victims, including the parents of a girl who perished in Newtown.

“There will be pundits and politicians and special interest lobbyists publicly warning of a tyrannical all-out assault on liberty,” Obama said.

“Behind the scenes, they’ll do everything they can to block any commonsense reform and make sure nothing changes whatsoever,” Obama said, underlining he did not oppose the right to bear arms laid down in the US Constitution.

The National Rifle Association, the top gun lobby group, warned that only law abiding gun owners would be affected, and “our children will remain vulnerable to the inevitability of more tragedy”.

Immediate reaction from pro-gun politicians to Obama’s plans to curb 11,000 annual firearms homicides in America also hinted at the unpromising political terrain the president’s plans face.

Senate Democratic majority leader Harry Reid welcomed the “thoughtful” proposals but gave no commitment to act on specific measures.

While background checks may attract support, a ban on assault weapons could force many Democrats from largely conservative states to unwelcome tough votes in the run-up to the 2014 mid-term election.

Several prominent Republicans rejected Obama’s plans out of hand, accusing him of attacking the right to bear arms.

“Guns require a finger to pull the trigger,” Texas Republican Governor Rick Perry said.

“There is evil prowling in the world ... let us all return to our places of worship and pray for help.”

Republican Senator Marco Rubio, a potential 2016 presidential hopeful, added: “Guns are not the problem; criminals with evil in their hearts and mentally ill people prone to violence are.”

Obama appeared with four children, representing hundreds who wrote to him after the 20 children and six adults were killed when a gunman blazing an assault rifle went on the rampage in Connecticut last month. “This is our first task as a society, keeping our children safe,” he said. - AP

Was 2012 hot? Not really, say scientists

Floods paralyse Indonesian capital Seasonal rains have triggered massive flooding in Indonesia's capital, triggering the evacuation of at least 20,000 people in Jakarta and bringing misery to many more.

Floods regularly hit parts of Jakarta in the rainy season, but Thursday's

inundation following an intense rain storm appeared especially widespread.

Authorities said four people had been killed by the waters, which washed into homes, offices, schools and roads across the city of 14 million people.

Monsoon rains, deforestation in the hills to the south of the city, chaotic planning and hundreds of rivers and waterways combine to cause floods, which expose the country's poor infrastructure even as it posts impressive economic growth.

Space station to get $18m blow-up room

An artist’s impression of the inflatable space station.

2013

NASA is partnering with a commercial space company in a bid to replace the cumbersome “metal cans” that now serve as astronauts’ homes in space with inflatable bounce-houselike habitats that can be deployed on the cheap.

A $17.8 million test project will send to the International Space Station an inflatable room that can be compressed into a 2.1m tube for delivery, officials said Wednesday in a news conference at North Las Vegas-based Bigelow Aerospace.

If the module proves durable during two years at the space station, it could open the

door to habitats on the moon and missions to Mars, NASA engineer Glen Miller said.

The agency chose Bigelow for the contract because it was the only company working on inflatable technology, said NASA Deputy Administrator Lori Garver.

Founder and President Robert Bigelow, who made his fortune in the hotel industry before getting into the space business in 1999, framed the gambit as an out-of-this-world real estate venture. He hopes to sell his spare tire habitats to scientific companies and wealthy adventurers looking for space hotels.

NASA is expected to install the 4m, blimp-

like module in a space station port by 2015.

Bigelow plans to begin selling stand-alone space homes the next year. The new technology provides three times as much room as the existing aluminum models, and is also easier and less costly to build, Miller said.

Artist renderings of the module resemble a tinfoil clown nose grafted onto the main station. It is hardly big enough to be called a room. Miller described it as a large closet with padded white walls and gear and gizmos strung from two central beams.

Garver said sending a small inflatable tube into space will be dramatically cheaper.

While the US was smashing heat records last year, the world as a whole barely slipped into the top 10 hottest years ever recorded, two American science agencies said this week.

The global average temperature for last year would have been a record 15 years ago, an indication that what used to be unusual heat is more commonplace.

Now it merely ranks 10th, something climate scientists say shows man-made climate change in action.

Last year’s average was 58 degrees Fahrenheit (14.5 degrees Celsius), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.

That’s a full degree above the 20th century average of 57 F (13.9 C).

The hottest was 2010 when the average temperature was 58.2 degrees (14.6 degrees Celsius).

NOAA records go back to 1880.

“We’re playing in a new neighborhood as far as global temperatures go, compared to even the late 20th century and especially the mid20th century,” said Deke Arndt, head of monitoring for NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center.

A weather pattern called La Nina — the flip side of El Nino — and mildness in Alaska, Canada, the United Kingdom and parts of Asia moderated the globe’s average temperature. The lower 48 states in the US recorded its hottest year last year with an average of 55.3 F (12.9 C).

“In global warming, you expect warming to manifest itself in different locations in any given year,” said Andrew Weaver, a climate scientist at the University of Victoria in Canada. “This year it was America’s turn.”

NASA, which measures temperatures differently, ranks 2012 as ninth warmest.

Some global warming skeptics have claimed the world hasn’t warmed in the last 16 years, but each decade is warmer than the last. Even the first three years of this decade were warmer than the last, the two agencies said. - AP

Give yourself the gift of space and serenity on Alford Forest Road

81 Alford Forest Road

A

home that exudes traditional character, yet is brimming with modern luxuries can be hard to find, but this gem on Alford Forest Road combines both, with a lot of added ‘wow’ factor.

Privacy, security and space are the key elements to this majestic family home, featuring a large fully-fenced section with no immediate neighbours. Serenity can be enjoyed from the verandah overlooking the expansive lawn and mature plantings, and tranquility is experienced from the attractive BBQ area on warm summer evenings. The lawn is sunny yet well sheltered, warm and pretty with a combination of delicate gardens and large trees. There is loads of space for the kids to play cricket on the lawn, or simply relax under the trees.

For those with green thumbs the raised vegetable gardens are a rewarding surprise, featuring an impressive selection of fresh produce, direct from the soil into your kitchen. And for the enthusiast, the double garage will certainly impress, along with carport and garden shed. Storage is not an issue on this property, inside or out.

From the outside this home is full of traditional class and character, but from the moment you step in the front door, the modern style will impress.

A large proportion of this home has undergone an extensive renovation, and no expense was spared in quality. The use of bold wallpaper and frosted lights in the hallway set the scene for modern and enjoyable living.

The master bedroom is completed by a luxurious ensuite, described as ‘Hollywood’ style, where no expense has been spared. Both the spacious ensuite and large guest bathroom

have been completely re-done, featuring a large spa bath, showers with multiple water jets and chic vanities of majestic quality. Topped off with opulent tiles and lavish fittings, the bathrooms are sensational, an absolute talking point of the home that is sure to impress.

Two further bedrooms both would be described as massive.

Feature wall to wall and floor to ceiling cupboards. New carpet and drapes with full size windows for the sun to stream in.

Every room in this home is spacious, making it perfect for a growing family, or anyone who loves to decorate.

The kitchen is a great example of the spacious room inside this home. The natural colours give the kitchen an airy and light feeling, from the polished timber floor to the abundant neutral cabinetry. Never will you be short of space to store your favourite kitchen items, as the kitchen has a plethora of cupboards and drawers, even custom space for a few bottles of wine, and bench space is plentiful.

The kitchen is open plan to the dining area, again very spacious and also opens up to the outdoors through sliding doors, perfect for entertaining. This space flows straight through to the living area, making the lounge, dining and kitchen areas all flow through as one large space. However if intimacy is required, the lounge can be closed off to add ambience.

Through the large windows basks plentiful sun, but for extra warm tootsies during winter, there is underfloor diesel heating, and an HRV system to keep all corners of the home toasty and fresh.

The work has been done with this spacious home, just move in and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

If you ask a group of property owners when the best time is to buy or sell a property, you’re likely to be told that summer is best But in Ashburton during 2012, the first month of the summer was definitely not the time when buyers were out in force. While properties changed hands quickly, with an average time to sell of 25 days, the number of houses sold was the lowest for the year at 28.

Unlike some businesses where 50 per cent of their income is made in the last two months of the year, real estate salespeople are doing deals year round.

P.A.

2 years

2012

P.A.

Of the 547 houses sold in the Ashburton District last year, autumn topped the polls in terms of numbers – during March, April and May 177 houses sold compared to 116 over the three summer months. Both autumn and winter were stronger than summer.

Property sales are actually less susceptible to seasonality than some may think.

547

Nationally March is the most active month of the year and that was borne

year to list a home for sale. In fact when selling a property, the best time could be in the middle of winter, a time traditionally thought of as the worst time of the year for the property market!

The activity of researching and viewing property online hardly varies through out the year (with the single exceptions of the lead up to Christmas and summer holidays).

The majority of new property listings tend to flood onto the market in February and March and again in October and November, about 40 per cent of the total. In contrast, the winter months of June, July and August show the lowest level of new listings coming onto the market, barely 20 per cent of the annual total.

An astute seller could do well to grab the winter season to list, gaining the advantage of fewer properties competing for buyer attention.

Regardless of when they listed, REINZ data shows that Ashburton’s market is slowly climbing back to where it was before sales plunged in 2008.

Suburb covered: Allenton, Ashburton, Fairton, Hampstead, out in Ashburton when there were 63 sales in March last year.

At its peak over the past 11 years, sale numbers peaked in 2003 at 707 Hinds, Lauriston, Lismore, Mayfield - Ashburton District, and plunged to a low of 397 in 2008. The most houses sold in any month Methven, Mt Somers, Netherby, Rakaia, Tinwald, Winchmore. Having said that sales are not that seasonal it may come as some surprise over those years was 88 March 2004 and the least in August 2013.

Bach’s what are they worth?

John Moore

Branch Manager NBS Ashburton

It sure is that time of the year. The sun comes up early and goes down late, we have all the daylight to enjoy life to the fullest. New Zealander’s generally have their holidays in the Christmas New Year break with the children and disappear to holiday retreats.

I remember growing up, we only ever had a couple of real holiday’s, things were different in those days. I remember a holiday on the Bank Peninsula and at the time it rained every day and we came home early, a unanimous vote by the family that home was better than the Bach we were in.

Nowadays “my family” holidays on the Peninsula regularly as we built a Bach there and just love it. It is time away from work but not without all the commitments, it is somewhere where Carol and I can put our feet up, relax with a beer or wine and lookout to sea. Yes; I do go for the odd bike ride just to enjoy the hills and the scenery this can build up a thirst.

income off it? Our Bach gives us no financial return and the only gains we may get are if we ever sold it. Right now we would strug gle to sell it as the earthquakes in Christchurch have damaged it, like so many in Christchurch, so there is no way I’ll get a financial return now for some years while EQC and the insurance companies decide on who pays for what and when.

Would I have been better to have purchased a renter, got some income then had the flexibility to go on holiday where ever I wanted in New Zealand or maybe overseas once a year? While I would have had that flexibility it has been great to have created what could be said is a second life for myself and my family. Our children have grown up learning to water ski and enjoy the sea and the outdoors, we’ve met other families and it feels as if we have two lives.

It was great to go down to Godley House on Saturday and watch the rugby with another group of mates, we now have to Back to the beer; sorry I mean the holiday do it at the Rugby Clubrooms or someone’s house. “Earthquake again” breaks, it is great and something I would This is a great retreat having a Bach to go recommend to everyone is to take that to regularly and I recommend it to many time out somewhere regularly that you but financially if you’re looking at dollars enjoy. The decision that comes though alone, yes; I would have been better to is, where and when you should take have purchased a renter, but the true that holiday. We made the decision 10 wealth of having this Bach as a retreat you years ago that we’d buy a Bach for these can’t put a dollar value on it. timeouts and after looking all over the place we decided we’d build a Bach to So when sitting back having a beer or a spend time away. wine these holiday’s with the family, have The question I put to myself sometimes is, was this a good investment financially?

Your real estate New Years resolutions

As we watch the New Years fireworks explode in a cascade of dazzling colours, embrace in joy with someone special and reflect on a wonderful year gone by, we think ahead to the year that is now upon us and resolve to make some changes in our lives. Usually they are means of selfimprovement, whether a change of career, an improvement on health or just ideas to put ourselves on-track down the path we would like to live our lives.

As most resolutions arise from the previous years shortcomings, these can be often fleeting and easily forgotten.

A person who has watched themselves slip further into debt may resolve to take charge of their personal finances, but without a plan this remains a thought. Quitting smoking and losing weight are popular resolutions for those who noticed their bad habits were getting away on them this past year, but without passion and dedication these resolutions can often become short-lived and soon forgotten.

Instead of focusing purely on yourself this year, why not take a different approach, and look at making some resolutions toward what may be your largest financial

only

asset, your property. By doing so, you will have structured and achievable goals and the residual benefit may end up benefiting you personally more than you thought possible.

Firstly look at your property and envisage how you would like to see it improve over the next 12 months. Then think about what it will take to achieve these improvements and set out a targeted plan to tackle each step. Resolutions should be clearly set out and realistic. You may very well be thinking about moving, but that doesn’t mean that your resolution should be selling your $300,000 home for $700,000. While not entirely impossible you will more than likely be setting yourself up for disappointment.

Some things are simply out of a buyer or a seller’s control, but a resolution is to learn from the mistakes of buyers and sellers of the past, and improve on the transaction. There are many buyers who wish they had done more research before settling on a property they weren’t entirely happy with, and many sellers who wish they had put more effort into their property before letting it sell for a low outcome.

Whether you plan to buy or sell, there are some real estate resolutions that buyers and sellers can make.

Buyers

Story by: Amanda Wright

you’ll have even more financing options. Ideally, you’ll also have enough left over after you get your mortgage to cover the payments for two or three months.

Resolve to sort out your finances long before you put in an offer.

There’s no point finding your dream home, going to the lengths of submitting an offer, then finding out that you can’t actually afford to buy it. Sorting out your finances before you want to put in an offer on that dream home ensures that this doesn’t happen.

Resolve to evaluate your buying options early You may think you only need to go to open homes once you’re ready to buy. But in reality, a buyer needs a couple of months understanding the different marketing platforms to explore and to get a feel for the market in general before you actually start looking for your dream home.

Consider meeting with a mortgage professional early in the year to get your finances into action early. Know how good your credit rating is and understand what your financial position looks like from a lenders perspective. If you have credit issues, even minor ones such as a slightly inflated credit card, take steps to get these in order first, as this is the most important first step you can make long before searching for a property.

Buying a home, especially if you’re a first home buyer it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of the transaction, and all of a sudden every house seems perfect. Wow this one has a pool, oh look this one has a large spa and a greenhouse. All of a sudden you’re planning on growing tomatoes when you’ve never been a gardener before. Ever.

A good real estate agent can also recommend an experienced mortgage professional who works hard to achieve great results for their clients. In today’s market, it’s best to have at least a 5% deposit; boost that to 10% and

TODAY FRIDAY JANUARY 18

Emma Waite and Spring Brooke, clearing a rail at the Ashburton A and P show, are among the local contenders in the Pony Grand Prix at this weekend’s Ashburton Area Equestrian Sports New Zealand (ESNZ) one star Jumping and Showhunter Show.

Stallions do battle in first grand prix Top flight show jumping action returns to Ashburton this weekend in the first South Island event of the new year.

The Ashburton Area one star show has attracted strong fields across all levels, with riders eager to get the autumn season under way following the New Year break.

The grand prix may well come down to a battle of the boys as local rider Susie Hayward and her impressive stallion Andretti look to strengthen their lead in the national one star grand prix series with a smart performance.

Despite the absence of recent

World Cup series fifth round winner Ross Smith and stallion Quite Cassini in early January, Hayward and Andretti will need to bring their A game though, facing a stiff line-up of jumpers including Mosgiel’s Claudia Hay with her two starry stallions Euro Sport Heartbreaker and Euro Sport Centavos.

Amongst the 12-strong field are the ever-consistent Brittany Whelan (Dunedin) on George Jetson, Kate Cavanagh (West Melton) on Vermont, and Invercargill’s Nicole White on Cricklewood Ace, who were winners of the grand prix

at Southland just prior to Christmas.

The pony grand prix has also attracted a strong line-up.

While the locals have the advantage in terms of numbers with Kimberley Bird starting both World Whisper and Brenwood Stevie James, Jamiee Bird with Showtym Image, Lucinda Askin with Buckle Up, and Emma Waite with Spring Brooke, and the inform Christchurch youngster Steffi Whittaker on Moonlight Glow will be out to spoil the local’s party.

Anderson glad to be rid of Armstrong

By Daniel Richardson Working in a bike shop in the unlikely location of Upper Hutt is a man who was one of the first people to speak out about Lance Armstrong’s doping.

He doesn’t care for professional cycling any more, speaks with an accent that verifies his American roots and clearly knows his way around a bike if you listen to him dealing with a potential customer.

The man’s name is Mike Anderson and he was hired by Armstrong in 2002 to be his personal assistant and bike mechanic.

The pair were close and a former wife of Armstrong even dubbed Anderson ‘Husband Number Two’.

But in 2004 Anderson allegedly found a stash of steroids in a bathroom cabinet while Armstrong was training in Spain and the relationship between the pair began to fall apart, the Daily Mail reported.

After receiving a large bonus that Anderson took to be ‘hush money’, he refused to sign a confidentiality agreement surrounding his work with Armstrong and was eventually pushed out of his home town and fled to New Zealand where he now lives with his wife and two children, he said in an interview.

Armstrong is widely expected to confess that he used performance-enhancing drugs during his career in an interview with Oprah Winfrey that is scheduled to air in New Zealand this afternoon.

Anderson said he would rather see Armstrong spill his confession to a judge as opposed to a talkshow host. “Frankly I hope he goes to jail. He introduced a sort of corruption to cycling’s governing body that is very American: loads of money and PR,� Anderson said.

“When it comes to Lance, for a lot of people it’s been about staying on message whether it’s true or not. He’s inundated the media for years to control the public’s perception of him. He should have his day in court.

He’s committed perjury. He should be taken down and I hope he takes a lot of other people with him.�

Anderson’s disdain for Armstrong is evident and he referred to the former seven-time Tour de France winner as a “douchebag� when speaking to APNZ yesterday, and said he can’t wait for the scandal surrounding him to be over.

Having spent all day yesterday fielding further requests for interviews from around the world, Anderson said he would rather his phone rang with people wanting to buy bikes from him than to dig up old ghosts.

A blog post on Anderson’s bike shop’s website blog.thebikehutt.co.nz from last month mentioned that he stocked David Walsh’s book Seven Deadly Sins: My Pursuit of Lance Armstrong.

The post is accompanied by the following: “Come join us celebrate the end of the year, the end of a sordid era in professional road cycling, and the closing of a chapter in my own personal history with the NZ release of David Walsh’s new book about the biggest fraud in sporting history, the guy who temporarily held seven Tour de France titles, Mr Lance Gunderson Armstrong. Get your copy of Seven Deadly Sins first at the shop on Friday 14 December from 9 to 6. We’ll be serving up glasses of I-told-you-so brew all day. Hell, let’s just celebrate fair play and human decency!�

Given Anderson’s contempt for the exOlympian there may be one former friend who won’t tune in to watch Armstrong confess his sins to Oprah today. - APNZ

• Croquet couple clash Marital discord is a fact of life for Chris and Jenny Clarke - and it’s all out in the open. The Christchurch couple, married just before Christchurch hosted the world championships five years ago, are rivals on the croquet greens. Chris, the 1995 and 2008 world champion and world ranked No 1, and Jenny, the 2012 world women’s champion, are preparing for the centenary national open championships which start on local greens with doubles competition today. However, they may not play one another this tournament. The singles draw keeps them apart unless they both reach - STA the semis.

• Doing well on the water New Zealand’s campaign at the Australian Youth Olympic Festival in Sydney got off to a good start yesterday, with four medals on the water. The first came from Jarrod Fitzgerald (17, Gisborne) and Zac Quickenden (18, Christchurch), winning silver in the Canoe/Kayak Sprint K-2 1000m. Quickenden then added a bronze to his collection in the K-1 1000m. It was a similar story in the women’s competition, with Aimee Fisher (17, Hastings) and Lucy Johnson (18, Christchurch) winning silver in the K-2 500m. Johnson then went on to collect her second silver of the - APNZ day in the K-1 500m.

• Mannering still skipper The decision has taken over longer than most expected but the Warriors captain will be named today. After months of speculation incumbent skipper Simon Mannering will be confirmed as the leader for the 2013 NRL season - just 23 days out from the first trial match. It will be Mannering’s fourth season at the helm and leaves him on track to become the longest serving skipper in the club’s history. There was consideration given to some other contenders but Mannering stood out as the outstanding candidate, despite the damage of 2012. - HOS

I have recently returned from a fantastic trip to London & Paris where I experienced many of the major attractions. I travelled by Eurostar from London to Paris which was a great way to travel – quick, comfortable and easy.

The highlight of my trip was the Fat Tire Evening Bike Tour in Paris which is suitable for even the most novice of cyclists!

HOT Tip: to avoid the queues at Eiffel Tower, consider walking up to the second level, you pay slightly less, get some exercise and save time!

Black Caps ‘not up for the fight’ The Black Caps lacked a game plan and a “sense of fight” in their recent two test drubbings to South Africa, according to former Proteas skipper Kepler Wessels.

The 55-year old former batsmen - who captained South Africa after playing 24 tests for Australia - felt the most disappointing part of the test series was that New Zealand didn’t really compete or even back themselves against the best team in the world.

“Over years gone by I think at times New Zealand have had good teams and other times they haven’t had good teams but they’ve always scrapped,” Wessels said. “On this tour we didn’t see enough of that.”

Wessels lamented the lack of batting technique in the Kiwi line-up and questioned whether a lack of a game plan may have made some of the batsmen lose their way.

“If you take somebody like Brendon McCullum, I like the guy and think he’s a courageous guy, but I think that he got caught up in being so determined to show guts and get behind the ball and set an example to the rest of the team, that he forgot to play his natural game.”

“Having to work out how to deal with this South African bowling attack, having a game plan, knowing how to go about constructing an innings under these sort of circumstances.

“I think they were lacking.”

“To be brutally honest some of the players just weren’t good enough.”

Wessels said South Africa will “spread the net quite wide” in the one-day series and expects the Proteas to use the series to develop a number of players they are grooming for the World Cup in 2015.

“That will benefit New Zealand a little bit, and they also have a few new guys joining the tour and it will be more competitive.”

The first ODI on Saturday night (NZT) will be played on the unpredictable Paarl wicket which has a history of being lively and where “anything can happen”.

“The good news for New Zealand is the other matches in Kimberley and Potchefstroom will be good to bat on and it will give New Zealand a much better chance to form a foundation and for some of their players, who are good one-day players, to play a match-changing innings.

• Erakovic bows out Marina Erakovic has had her second first-round exit at the Australian Open in three days, after losing her opening doubles match with partner Heather Watson yesterday. The New Zealander and the Brit fell in straight sets to ninth seeds Anna-Lena Groenefeld of Germany and Kveta Peschke of the Czech Republic 6-4 6-0.

The defeat means Erakovic has gone five straight years of being knocked out in the first round of the doubles in Melbourne.

Mid Canterbury driver Matt Honeywell will return to the Ashburton Speedway in his 800-horsepower V8 sprintcar looking to hold onto his lead in tomorrow’s fifth round of the South Island War of Wings series.

V8 sprintcars resume hostilities

By Jonathan Leask Mid Canterbury’s fastest farmer Matt Honeywell will attempt to cement his spot at the top of the War of the Wings Sprintcar Series in tomorrow’s sixth round at the Ashburton Speedway.

After five rounds of the South Island series Honeywell sits atop the leaderboard and is keen to extend his lead, but with over twenty of the 800 horsepower V8 powered sprintcars coming to Ashburton he will need a little luck to continue his dominant form in the series.

“After the five rounds so far we have won two and been constant

along the way to be sitting up the top, but it is pretty close,” Honeywell said.

Nelson’s Greg Teece had led the points race up until the last round at Cromwell where he finished the feature in seventh place, with Honeywell taking the chequered flag and the overall lead.

“Greg has been the pacesetter so far but I managed to sneak past him in Cromwell.

“The key thing now is to ensure I finish each race and the further up the field the finish the better.

Holding a slender 10 point lead Honeywell is well aware that he can’t afford to be too far back in the field before heading off to contest

rounds at Greymouth, Invercargill and Dunedin during the next few weeks.

Teece will be out to regain the top spot but not to be discounted are the seasoned campaigners Ray Baughan of Christchurch) and Cromwell’s Jason Scott, who have both have suffered on the points table due to untimely crashes, but a good result at Ashburton will put them right back into contention.

“It’s been a pretty competitive series so far and anyone of us could end up on top.”

Honeywell will be hoping for a better day at his local track than he had last time around.

“We had a race day here last year

the day after the national titles at Ruapuna but I didn’t fare so well.

“I suffered a bit of damage and had to pull out.”

A lot of interest will also be thrown the way of former Black Cap cricketer Nathan Astle who currently sits in eighth place after five rounds.

“He’s a tidy driver in his first season and he’s been really getting amongst it.

“You can tell he has the technique and the attitude to be a contender in the years to come.”

The local production saloons and six shooters provide the supporting action, with the first race getting under way at 12.30 pm.

More trouble for Warne Melbourne Stars captain Shane Warne is facing another one-match ban - this time for a slow over rate.

Warne was suspended for one game last week after his heated confrontation with West Indies allrounder Marlon Samuels.

But the spin legend is in hot water once again for an alleged breach of CA’s spirit of the game law in regards to a slow over rate.

Warne, who was already on a strike for a slow over-rate violation, wasn’t officially listed as captain for his team’s semi-final loss to the Perth Scorchers on Wednesday night.

Paceman James Faulkner was given the captaincy duties for the match, but CA said it should be Warne who takes the blame for

the slow over rate, claiming he had breached “Rule 5: Laws of Cricket and Spirit of the Game”.

CA said they had sent a memo to BBL teams on December 5 stating: “If a team’s official captain is selected but not named as captain, this will be considered against the Spirit of Cricket and may attract a Code of Behaviour charge.”

The Scorchers booked their place in Saturday’s grand final against the Brisbane Heat with an eight-wicket victory against the Stars.

The Stars made 2-183 off 18 overs in the rain-affected contest, with the Scorchers chasing down the revised victory target of 139 off 13 overs in a thrilling final-ball finish of their innings.

Lauriston will look to be the first to tame the Tech Sharks in the Muirhead Rosebowl senior cricket competition tomorrow.

Both teams are all but guaranteed semi-final berths in the Muirhead Rosebowl, but only one will be on track for an unbeaten round following tomorrow’s fifth round clash.

Lauriston haven’t lost a game since being beaten by the Sharks in round three of the Pritchard Shield back on November 2, but the Sharks are yet to taste defeat this summer.

Another win, their ninth, would see the Sharks assured of reclaiming the Studholme Shield, the overall trophy across the two 45-over competition round robins, and another step closer to

The Sharks also hold the Bevan Stroud Challenge Trophy which they successfully defended against Coldstream last week, the team they had earlier lifted it from.

Elsewhere the fight for the other top four spots heats up.

The Tech Stags are at the other end of the ladder without a win this season taking on Fairfield, who won a dogged battle with Methven to claim their first win of the round and move into contention for a semi-final berth.

The Tech Stags were surprise qualifiers last year but will need a drastic change in fortunes.

Allenton look to bounce back from their first loss of the competition hosting a Methven side searching for their first win of the competition, and double their tally for the summer.

By Jonathan Leask The Gary Ashworth Memorial Tournament will see a big festival of cricket at the Ashburton Domain on Sunday, as Mid Canterbury Cricket honours one of their great servants.

Ashworth played his final innings and passed away on the December 8 and to celebrate and honour his 15 years of service, they are holding a benefit T10 festival at the Ashburton Domain Oval on Sunday.

The Mid Canterbury seniors and a Mid Canterbury Classics team will be joined by a Canterbury Country XI for a 10-overs-a-side round robin tournament.

The Mid Canterbury senior side will be nearly at full strength while the Classics pose the real unknown threat with the “old-timers” suited to the shortened T10 format.

“The Classics team is almost the

team that won the Hawke Cup back in the 2003-04 season, with a few even older former rep players in the mix,” Mid Canterbury captain Matt Winter said.

“Canterbury Country plays the West Coast in a Hawke Cup match this weekend but they are still sending down a team that should be pretty competitive.”

Canterbury cricket couldn’t come through with a team but are sending down some Canterbury Wizards who will help with the raffles and auction, as well as mingling with the crowd.

“The day is just a way of showing Gary our gratitude for the countless hours he gave to the Mid Canterbury community, and supporting his family in their time of need.”

All proceeds from the day will go to the Ashworth family.

Gates open at 12 noon with the first ball to be bowled at 12.30.

• Bailey ‘burger flipper’ Without the Nine Network’s heavy financial commitment to Australian cricket, George Bailey might find himself “flipping burgers” for a living. That’s the view of Nine’s executive producer of cricket Brad McNamara, who sent down a bouncer of his own yesterday following Bailey’s attack on Nine earlier. Bailey accused Nine of making a tactical move to try to talk down one-day cricket during TV-rights negotiations.

“He needs to understand where his money’s coming from. Without the TV rights deal, George is probably working in a coalmine or flipping burgers at McDonald’s,” said McNamara.

• Penalties ‘a worry’ Alex Ferguson called on his Manchester United side to improve their penalty-taking after Wayne Rooney missed their fifth spot-kick of the season yesterday. United, the record 11-times FA Cup-winners, did advance in this year’s Cup with a 1-0 third round replay win against Premier League rivals West Ham at Old Trafford, thanks to Rooney’s early firsthalf goal. But the England striker wasted a chance to put the result beyond doubt when he blazed over a penalty 12 minutes from time. That was Rooney’s second penalty miss of the season, with Robin van Persie, Javier Hernandez and Nani also proving fallible from 12 yards out.

ASHBURTON HOSTING FIRST GRAND PRIX OF THE SEASON P17 | Black caps ‘not up for the fight’ says wessels P21

Back to basics for Phoenix

damentals. Our defending’s been poor and I’m not just blaming the back four.

“I think it starts at the front and I think we’ve just got to work harder all over the pitch and go back to basics, get that right first and then you can start playing pretty football.”

After getting through 30 minutes for the Phoenix reserve side against YoungHeart Manawatu in Palmerston on Wednesday, Ifill will likely make his return to the A-League via the bench rather than start this weekend.

There’s still some life left in his 33-year-old legs and even the possibility of a cameo from him will likely galvanise the Phoenix who need to find more goals having only scored once during their past three games.

Ifill acknowledged there would be heat on him to perform but said he wouldn’t have it any other way.

“I want a little bit of pressure.

It’d be terrible if they weren’t even worried about me coming back so it’s quite nice to get a little bit of pressure and hopefully they can do the job without me,” Ifill said.

In team news, Louis Fenton is likely to be removed from the starting line-up and will play from the bench in Sydney and Alex Smith will be inserted to the playing XI. Phoenix coach Ricki Herbert said given the side’s leaky defence of late and the fact the game was on the road Smith would help strengthen the midfield.

- APNZ

By Daniel Richardson Rather than search for highlight reel moments, Paul Ifill is calling for his Wellington Phoenix team-mates to focus on the fundamentals as they look to pull themselves out of a horror mid-season slump.

The Phoenix have lost five of their last seven matches and are anchored to the bottom of the A-League ladder, although only five points separate last and fifth on the table.

That means Phoenix fans don’t need to push the panic button just yet on their season as they bid to make the playoffs for the fourthconsecutive campaign, but pressure is mounting for them to start putting results on the board.

Their next opportunity to do so will present itself this weekend when the Phoenix meet Sydney FC at Allianz Stadium on Saturday night.

Ifill has been included in the match-day squad for this weekend’s game, which marks the first time he will take the field for the Phoenix since round 11 after he underwent surgery on his right ankle.

The former Barbados international said one thing stood out during his time watching the Phoenix lurch from one loss to the next.

“Lack of confidence I think,” Ifill said. “There’s a lot of talk about the new style, but some of the things we’ve been doing [wrong] - getting away from the style - is just fun-

Tennis players in the New Zealand Under 16s tournament fill in the rain delay as best they can at the Ashburton Tennis Centre yesterday.

Today’s sports trivia question

Playing the waiting game

By Jonathan Leask Chants of rain, rain go away were probably heard from organisers as a second day of the New Zealand under 16s tennis tournament was washed out yesterday.

The morning deluge looked to clear and play got under way under leaden skies at 2pm, but it was short-lived as the rain returned, with thunder and light-

ning, to force another abandonment of play.

As long as the weather clears as forecast, they will push through as many matches as possible today, but the original schedule only had the finals set down for tomorrow, meaning there is plenty of wriggle room.

“The way the draw is it allows for situations like this,” Mid Canterbury Tennis president Cynthia Christie said.

Who were the All Blacks painted on the side of an Air New Zealand plane in 1999?

Check out our video “The forecast is good for the next two days, so we could get a full day in and if we need to we can play more games on the final day.”

Play will resume with the quar-

terfinals in the boys’ and girls’ singles and the girls’ doubles, with the second round of the boys’ doubles, consolation and plate matches also to be completed.

Top class field assembled for Challenge Wanaka A pair of former Methven athletes are looking to feature highly in a high class field in Wanaka this weekend.

Braden Currie and Julia Grant, who grew up together as next door neighbours in Methven, have both come a long way since competing in Wanaka last year.

Currie is out to defend his title and better his time in the Lake Wanaka Half while Grant is looking Julia Grant: chasing a podium finish to improve on her fifth place finish

last year in the Challenge Wanaka.

The Challenge Wanaka is the marquee event, consisting of a 3.8km swim, 180km cycle and 42.2km run while the Lake Wanaka Half is just that, half the distance, with a 1.9km swim, 90km cycle and 21.1km run.

Currie won last year’s Lake Wanaka half by a whopping 12.04 minutes and returns in red hot form after claiming a clean sweep in the three-race Anaconda series in Australia.

“That’s my goal, to improve my time now that I know I can handle

the distance,” Currie said. “I did a lot of swimming over winter to make my swim leg stronger so should be able to improve my swim time.

“My cycling has also come on so I’ll push hard there and look to kick home strongly on the run.”

Still labelled an up-and-coming multisport talent this time last year Currie will take to the start line the overwhelming favourite, but it’s not a tag that bothers him at all.

“It’s good to be considered the one out in front for a change rather than the one who will do the chasing.”

The weekend in Wanaka comes with the goal of defending his title but it’s merely a training race as Currie eyes a win in the Coast to Coast after coming third last year.

Grant is also heading back to Wanaka with a years’ worth of big race experience behind her, heading back for a second crack at the gruelling ironman course.

In last year’s race, her first ironman distance, she was out of the water in fourth, was second after the bike and dropped back to fifth by the end of the run.

Since then she has excelled with

her results on the Ironman 70.3 tour, qualifying her for the world championships in Las Vegas where she was hampered by a puncture on the bike leg to finish 22nd in the elite women.

The Challenge Wanaka women’s race will see an exciting duel between New Zealand’s top two long course triathletes, Gina Crawford and Joanna Lawn.

Grant is looking to push them both for a place on the podium.

The Challenge Wanaka and Lake Wanaka Half start at 6.30am tomorrow.
