Three Mid Canterbury retail outlets have sold tobacco to a 15-yearold in a sting this week.

The controlled purchase operation saw the 15-year-old visit 10 Mid Canterbury tobacco retailers.

Of the 10, seven asked the teenager for identification and when none was produced, they refused to sell them tobacco.

Dr Alistair Humphrey, Canterbury medical officer of health, expressed his disappointment in the result, saying that checking photo identification was an essential part of modern retail practice.

“Retailers who sell products that are harmful to your health need to take their responsibilities very seriously and not put lives at risk in pursuit of profit,” Dr Humphrey said.

“Just asking their age is not sufficient. They need to be able

to present legitimate identification because once you have sold to one underage person you are likely to attract many more.”

Dr Humphrey said further monitoring checks would continue across Canterbury to make sure retailers continue to obey the law.

He said the sale of tobacco and herbal smoking products to minors was viewed seriously and the Ministry of Health’s policy was to issue an infringement notice or prosecute in appropriate cases.

Under an infringement notice, the fee is $500 in the case of an individual or $1000 in the case of a body corporate. In the case of a successful prosecution, the maximum fine which can be ordered by the court is $5000 for an individual or $10,000 for a body corporate.

The Ministry of Health now have 30 days to decide upon the appropriate penalty for the three retailers that broke the law by selling tobacco to a minor.

Lynda Topp’s Ken is more of a sideburn man, but is looking forward to judging the moustaches of contestants in tonight’s Movember competition at the Mt Somers Tavern.

The contestants are 15 Mid Canterbury Foothills Young Farmers’ Club members, who were clean shaven as of the first of this month, but now sport moustaches of varying sizes, shapes and colours.

Lynda, who lives at Staveley with her partner Donna Luxton, is a Kiwi icon, as is her alter ego Ken. The Guardian caught up with her yesterday, and she informed about what was on Ken’s mind.

She said Ken would be bringing in some female help when it came to the Movember judging.

“Because they are connoisseurs of moustaches, I believe,” Lynda said.

“He (Ken) is more of a sideburn man, the other Ken (played by Lynda’s twin sister Jules) has a moustache, but my Ken has always been a sideburn man.”

Contestants would have to not only have “pretty big” moustaches, but also be good at answering questions and walking with style.

“The deal up at Mt Somers is it’s the whole package,” she said.

Ken knew all the names of the various shapes of moustaches, and his favourite was the fang. This stretched out along the wearer’s upper lip and trailed down the side of the mouth to the chin.

“A lot of young farmers seem to go for that look, it’s quite a rugged look.”

She recalled some ladies having to take one or two of the contestants of last year’s competition into the toilets to colour up their growth with mascara and eye liner, because they were too blonde. Blonde hair could be a problem as it was harder to see, with brunettes and red heads having an edge in the competition.

She hoped the contestants would dress up in line with the ‘Barry Crump Bogans From The Bush’ theme, and when it came to strutting their stuff around the tavern that they would walk in a “manly type fashion”.

“But Ken doesn’t mind a little bit of feminine side coming through in the boys, and sometimes they might get a point for that.”

Ken had his own PA system at the tavern and would be playing heavy metal music.

“The Mt Somers pub will be booming,” she said.

Everyone was welcome, and there would even be spot prizes for audience members who had impressive moustaches.

Meanwhile, Ken was finding the Gregg’s coffee advertising campaign currently being broadcast was increasing his celebrity status, but he was taking it all in his stride.

He was getting asked to attend more events, and believed he would be the MC at next year’s Rakaia salmon fishing competition.

“He’s starting to get asked to all the manly dos around town,” she said.

Council meet time a catch-22 situation Bush bogans put moustaches in judge’s hands photo kirsty graham 240612-KG-162

Ken, at a Mid Canterbury hunting competition earlier this year, is taking increasing celebrity status in his stride.

By Sue Newman

The future of meeting times for the Ashburton District Council is in limbo, with district councillors finding themselves caught in a perfect catch-22 situation.

A later meeting time might be the choice of the people, but what ever change was made and when ever it became effective, it was far from ideal on several counts, they said. Making a switch mid-term was impossible, but leaving it to the next council would simply shift the problem.

At the request of the Ashburton Citizens’ Association, councillors yesterday debated whether they should stick with the 1.30pm meeting time or move this to a later slot, 4pm or 4.30pm. The citizens group said the earlier afternoon meeting time didn’t work for anyone in employment, either as a potential councillor or as a member of the public interested in attending meetings.

Councillor Darryl Nelson said he’d stood for council knowing that meetings started at 1.30pm. Making a change mid term wouldn’t work because of the raft of other meetings that were scheduled around council meeting times, he said.

That might work for the current crop of councillors, but if the

council left a decision on meeting times changes to the new council, that would do nothing to encourage new candidates who might be prompted to stand if meetings were held later in the day, said councillor Alan Totty.

“If we leave it like this and the decision is made after the election, candidates standing at the next election will be unsure when the meetings are going to be.”

Councillor John Leadley made a strong plug for keeping the 1.30pm meeting time.

Over the past two years there had been more than 200 meetings, occupying around seven hours of the day. A later start time for council meetings would make it hard to juggle all of those, he said.

“It’s fair it should be brought up but the new council needs to be aware of all of those facts.”

For staff who attend council, council committee and sub-committee meetings and workshops, late meetings would mean late working days. The council’s standing orders dictate that all meetings must be over by 10pm.

Finance committee chair Neil Brown suggested that videoing council meetings might solve the problem, but said a question on meeting times in next year’s NRB residents’ survey might provide the answer.

By Susan Sandys Mid Canterbury Foothills Young Farmers Club member Andy Dennis admits he is proud of the bushiness of his moustache.

He is one of 15 members of the group who are cultivating their facial hair leading into tonight’s Movember competition which is held by the club each year.

“I don’t know if I will win but I might be up there,” he said.

He was not so complimentary of his fellow competitors’ efforts.

“There’s a couple of shockers.

There are a couple that just have a couple of stray hairs,” he said.

Indeed, a photo taken by the Guardian yesterday showed one such member resorting to a fake moustache.

Mr Dennis said the annual Movember effort was all about raising awareness of men’s health issues including prostate cancer, and reminding men to get along to the doctor for a check up if they had any concerns.

Organiser Andrea Thompson said she would be meeting with the competitors last night and photographing their efforts, so the judge of Lynda Topp’s Ken

Farmers eye TAF float

By Michelle Nelson Local dairy farmers will be watching the NZX when Fonterra units begin trading today.

However, Mid Canterbury farmers have opted for a cautious approach to the dairy giant’s new share trading capital structure (TAF).

“There hasn’t been much by way of farmer uptake, here or anywhere in the country,” Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers dairy chairperson Hamish Davidson said.

“The reality is that a lot of our

farmers are still in a growth stage – units and funds don’t mean anything; it’s their ability to buy shares that matters.

“Most farmers won’t be looking at selling shares until they see an upside to it.”

Units in the shareholders fund will start at $5.50 and the fund will launch at $525 million.

The price was at the top end of the range in the fund’s prospectus, and was decided after an institutional offer and bookbuild over recent days, Fonterra chairman Sir Henry van der Hayden said.

The size of the fund automatical-

ly ensured its move into the NZX50. On the supply offer side, only 260 farmer-shareholders out of the 10,500-strong base have offered to sell their shares into the fund.

Because of the shortfall of farmers selling the economic rights of their shares into the fund, Fonterra has issued about 90 million shares.

Fonterra chief executive Theo Spierings said a number of farmer shareholders were waiting to see how the units were trading before releasing some of their shares into the fund. However, low interest rates could also be influencing

decision as the capital required for growth was available elsewhere.

Fifty-eight per cent of the units have been allocated to New Zealand retail and institutional investors, as well as the “friends of Fonterra”, which includes share milkers and staff. That leaves 42 per cent allocated to offshore institutions.

China’s sovereign wealth fund, the $US400 billion China Investment Corp, is among the foreign ventures to have expressed interest in the scheme.

Holders of the units are entitled to the dividends but not the voting rights of Fonterra shares, to

Councillors opt to defer decision on video plan

Boarding scholarship a surprise

By Myles Hume

By Sue Newman Ratepayers could be in for a long wait if they’re hoping to see on-line video clips of Ashburton District Council meetings.

When the Ashburton Guardian approached the council with a request to video council meetings, later making edited clips from those meetings available on its website, that request had councillors and council staff scratching for answers.

It came up with options but no answers and one of those was to hire a video company to film and live stream all debate at meetings and for the video to later be stored in its archives. This option came with an annual $57,600 price tag.

The Guardian video service would come free of charge and would be edited.

Rather than take the plunge and let the free video service roll, councillors opted to kick for touch, potentially pushing a decision out until it becomes a job for the next crop of councillors, following next year’s October local body elections.

Staff suggested they should obtain more information on managing the video process itself.

They are also keen to find out public opinion by including a question on videoed council meetings in next year’s residents’ survey.

If the council opted to manage the video process itself, the cost would have to be built into the 2013-2014 annual plan, councillor Neil Brown said.

“Our ratepayers will need to know the costs and the benefits of this and I’m not sure how well it’s used in other areas where they video.

The Guardian has suggested it will edit the video, choose the bits they want to use. If council opted to do it off its own bat it would all be there.”

While he had no problems with looking at the options for videoing meetings, councillor John Leadley gave tacit support to the Guardian option, saying he didn’t believe ratepayers would want to see council spending $57,000 for the service.

“I don’t think any of us here have any fears about being filmed, but I don’t see any point in spending this much money.”

ensure farmers retained control of the company.

The company’s chief financial officer Jonathan Mason says issuing new shares will dilute earnings per share by about 1 per cent.

Fonterra has indicated it will not permanently retain the resulting equity, but has yet to explain what it will be used for.

“Investors recognised there was some complexity in the structure of trading among farmers, but there was strong acknowledgement of Fonterra’s leading position and clear growth strategy,” Mr Spierings said.

Christian school to add years 9 and 10 to its roll

Our Lady of the Snows pupil Cian Taylor won the Joseph-Dolph Scholarship which means he will have his boarding fees paid for at St Bede’s College.

As they prepared to put their third son through boarding school, Cian Taylor’s family had a feeling things may get a bit tight.

However, when the news came two weeks ago that Cian, 13, was offered the Joseph-Dolph Scholarship to pay for his boarding fees at St Bede’s College, the money was not even given a thought.

“The financial side is good, but it was seeing his face that made me happy, he was so proud of what he had achieved and for us it’s more about that than anything,” his mother Nuala said.

All-up the scholarship is worth about $50,000 if the Our Lady of the Snows pupil makes it through five years of schooling, where next year he will join his brothers Ciaran, 15, and Eoin, 16.

He earned the scholarship through two exams he sat at the new entrants day in August where he showed his academic prowess.

Mrs Taylor admitted it would have been tight to send another son to the college, however she believed having him at home would not be much different.

“The cost is there but when they are at home you just don’t notice it as much, because when they are here they will eat and you have to run them round for sports so on the whole there’s not too much of a difference.”

Mrs Taylor said her son was excited about heading to Christchurch, where he wants to further his love of hockey and join the rowing team.

With six children, Mrs Taylor said losing another son to the college would be sad, but she was excited about the opportunities he would have living in the city.

“We will be able to fit more in the car,” she joked.

“It’s going to be good for him so we are quite looking forward to it where he will have so many opportunities.”

Cian will leave Our Lady of the Snows on December 14.

By Myles Hume Year nine and 10 pupils could be added to the Ashburton Christian School roll as early as next year.

The school lodged an application to the Ministry of Education earlier this year, calling for year nine and 10 pupils to attend the school which will offer Ashburton teens an alternative to the two colleges in the district.

If it is given the go ahead, year nine pupils would be allowed in and then year 10 would be introduced in 2014.

Principal Tim Kuipers said he was waiting for Education Minister Hekia Parata to give the green light, which would mean “two to three” teachers could be added to the mix.

“We have reason to be positive it will happen, but of course until that is confirmed we are not saying it is happening,” Mr Kuipers said.

It would be the first step for the school which hopes to eventually have year 13 pupils on its books, following in the footsteps of two christian schools in Christchurch who have already made the transition.

Mr Kuipers said there was research that showed it was beneficial for some teenagers.

“The research tells us that it is a very advantageous thing because you can have a relation approach with children and you can be very close to them, it creates an opportunity within a smaller environment,” Mr Kuipers said.

“It’s a significant time in their lives, some people thrive in high school and some children get a little bit lost.”

Mr Kuipers agreed there was a perception that it would be difficult for year 10 leavers to intergrate into a new school where pupils would have to meet new people and tackle NCEA, but he said that was not the case.

“They have explored that with the year 10 a Hillview (Christian School) who have been tracked to year 13 at Middleton Grange and they all performed at or above those who joined at year nine.”

He said there were also ideas floating around that Ashburton College would install a transition programme to ease pupils into college.

Mr Kuipers is expecting to hear a decision by the end of the year.

Nine-year-old Charlotte Blundell said she was “shocked” to have won the annual Jub Jub Club design-a-Christmas-card competition.

About 15 club members entered, and Charlotte knew the competition would be tough.

One of the things which stood out for the judges, who were Mayor Angus McKay and Ashburton District Councillor Jac Sparks, was the fact Charlotte’s design included an iconic Ashburton landmark, the Baring Square clock tower.

There was a quirky twist, with Santa climbing up the tower. “It’s a real Ashburton Christmas,” Mrs Sparks said.

Charlotte is among more than 120 seven to 13-year-olds who belong to the Ashburton Art Gallery’s Jub Jub Club, which meets regularly for workshops in photography, painting and other activities.

Her design will feature on the official Christmas cards of both the gallery and council this year.

It will consequently be sent to hundreds of contacts of the two organisations, including Members of Parliament.

Mathews hung on stubbornly.

Todd Astle eventually got the breakthrough which got the ball rolling, and then once the new ball came the openers did the job and ripped through the tail end of Sri Lanka.

New Zealand won by 167 runs.

Captain Ross Taylor said the team had trained hard after losing the first test so comprehensively and had played

well in tough conditions. Taylor was man of the match.

The emerging player award went to Trent Boult, who finished with 3-33, the result of some fine swing bowling.

New Zealand posted 412 in its first innings, while Sri Lanka made 244.

The Kiwis’ second turn at the crease resulted in 194 runs, then they dismissed Sri Lanka for 195.

Paying tribute to our local community heroes T

he Kiwibank Local Hero Award aims to identify and reward everyday people doing extraordinary things in their local communities.

It recognises the enormous contribution, sacrifice and com-

mitment of Kiwis who selflessly work to make their local communities a better place.

This is New Zealand’s premier community award and an opportunity to honour someone you know who is making a positive

Gardening initiative takes root across NZ

By Sue Newman Just when Jade Temepara thought her year couldn’t get any bigger, she has been awarded a medal as one of New Zealand’s local heroes.

The Ashburton woman shot to fame with her gardening for novices project, Hand Over a Hundy. It started out as a small idea to grow non-gardeners into gardeners, but it became an idea that captured the hearts and the minds of communities across New Zealand.

And this week that idea earned Mrs Temepara a local hero title, one she’s still struggling to come to terms with. Standing on stage alongside 14 other people who had all made a remarkable contribution to their community was pretty humbling, she said.

“They were an amazing group of people. I was honoured to be part of them. Some had saved lives, like a little fellow who was nine or ten,

he’d saved someone from drowning.”

Candidates for the Local Hero awards were nominated by their community.

“The first I knew was when someone sent me a link and I saw my name up there as being nominated.

It was pretty amazing.”

Her project, Hand Over a Hundy, was a simple idea to help struggling families cut their food bills by growing their own vegetables. It was born over the dining room table. In its first year it helped 10 families become gardeners. It now has a life of its own, mirrored in several other communities and with strong local support from mentors and demand from new gardeners.

It might have started small, but it has become a local institution with its own hub set to open early in the new year and almost more business than it can handle. The project has also gained national fame, with Mrs Temepara being named NZ Gardener Magazine gardener of the year.

She was invited to be an exhibitor at this year’s Ellerslie Flower Show and won a silver award for her project. The sheer simplicity of Hand Over a Hundy is behind its success, she said.

New gardeners are sponsored with $100 worth of seeds, tools and seedlings and receive a gardening mentor for a year. When the year is up, they sell produce from their gardens to raise $100 to put back into the Hundy Fund for the next lot of families.

She might have become a well known public face, but for Mrs Temepara, mum of four, her family is unquestionably still the number one driving force in her life.

“I’m just into families. The ones who need the support the most get my first priority. People are really struggling to feed their families, big time – obviously a vege garden doesn’t go amiss. I was raised by a solo mum and I knew it was difficult for her – it’s my way of giving back.”

Recipient ‘gobsmacked’

By Erin Tasker Today, Raewyn Barclay will pack up her desk at Safer Ashburton, knowing her job is done.

The organisation’s community development officer, Mrs Barclay has dedicated the past four years of her life to ensuring new migrants to Mid Canterbury find a sense of belonging in their new home.

And she couldn’t have asked for a better end to the role, than receiving a local heroes award at Wednesday night’s New Zealander of the Year awards presentations in Christchurch.

The award came out of the blue.

“I got a letter in the mail a couple of weeks ago and I was actually away. My husband opened up the letter and said ‘Raewyn you’ve been nominated for a local hero of the year award in the New Zealander of the Year Awards’,” she said.

She was blown away and thought it was a hoax, until another letter arrived inviting her to Wednesday night’s awards cer-

emony.

She said it was a rare occasion where she was left speechless.

“My family were ever so proud of me about the whole thing and I’ve just been so humbled and gobsmacked,” Mrs Barclay said.

Her role was initially a three year one, extended to a fourth year by extra funding, and Mrs Barclay said she had achieved everything she set out to ahead of her final day on the job today.

“The whole idea was mainly working with migrants and new arrivals in Mid Canterbury and to help them have a place of belonging, and to help Mid Canterbury people to be aware that there are people from around the world here,” she said.

That involved restructuring and strengthening the Mid Canterbury Newcomers Network and getting events like February’s MultiCultural Bite up and running.

She was to make sure things like that were set up and sustainable, and she’d done that.

Mrs Barclay said she was simply the cog at the back making it all happen but it had been

pleasing to see things like the new migrant driving and cooking classes up and running and successful.

A trained social worker, Mrs Barclay said the job had been the best in the world and to top it off with the award had been amazing.

“It was just awe inspiring the people that were there. I’m just Joe Blogs and I’m just doing my job,” she said.

“There were people there who had saved people’s lives and I thought ‘why am I here’.”

She didn’t find out who had nominated her until the awards night. It was the Filipino Dairy Workers of New Zealand – a group especially grateful for her efforts in helping their some 500 members with advice on seeking work and living in New Zealand.

From arranging driving lessons and tests to teaching skills like time management or training for a qualification – they said Mrs Barclay had always been there to help guide them through the difficulties when resettling into a new country.

15 regions across New Zealand.

From the regional winners, 10 national semi- finalists will be chosen and this will be narrowed down to three finalists with the national winner announced in February.

Jack Stevens was out at his gate yesterday, hoping to get his hands on his New Zealand local hero award.

The 86-year-old retired farmer couldn’t make it to Christchurch on Wednesday night to join his peers when the medals were handed out, but that didn’t mean he was any less excited by the award.

Finding he had been named a local hero was a bit of a shock, he said.

No one told him he’d been nominated and he confesses he knew virtually nothing about the honours project until he heard his name announced on the radio.

Mr Stevens farmed 260 acres in the Barrhill area, winning his farm in the post-World War Two rehabilitation ballot scheme, designed to help returned servicemen become farmers by providing loans to buy either State developed farms or farms purchased privately.

Securing a ballot farm was down to luck and it took Mr Stevens 26 ballots before his name came out of the barrel.

Over the years he earned a solid reputation as a sheep and cropping farmer who was also to the fore in his time in developing a modern dairy shed.

“Back then we all milked cows.

You were supposed to have just three cows on a rehab farm. I managed to get my numbers up to 29, but eventually the cows just faded out.”

He also bred and showed Ayrshire cattle and Clydesdale horses and over the years rebuilt a big collection of show wagons.

He’s a vintage machinery fan, and admits he’s always been a big collector of “old stuff”. What other people throw out, he saves.

When Mr Stevens bought his Barrhill farm, he said it was a ‘twitch’ farm, run down and over cropped. Returning it to a good level of productivity meant weeks on the tractor, ploughing and grubbing each paddock.

“I look at farming today and

I see the biggest improvements are in tractors, electric fences and modern sprays, especially Roundup. Now you can just spray a paddock where we ploughed it over and over again.”

If his farming days can be counted as successful, Mr Stevens said that success came down to his wife and children working alongside him on the farm. He also counts success in the number of Lincoln College students who he employed and mentored over the years – 23 in total. And today a fair number of those still keep in touch.

His community work includes being a charter member of Ashburton Jaycees, a 45 year membership of Lions and 15 years as president of Methven RSA, plus long stints on school committees and pony club committees.

He’s yet to get his hands on his hero medal and while it won’t quite measure up to the five medals he earned during World War Two, he says it’s one he’ll be proud to own.

Banks get behind teachers Prostate cancer OUR VIEW

a deadly issue

By Coen Lammers

editor

T

housands of wives and girlfriends around the country will be looking forward to the weekend.

Not because December 1 is the official start of summer, but more importantly because it is the end Movember.

After a month of putting up with hairy blokes running around the streets and possibly invading their private space, the razors will give them back the faces they used to like before November 1.

From its humble beginnings in Melbourne only a few years ago, the charity, moustachegrowing event, has become a worldwide phenomenon.

Nearly two million Mo Bros, as they are called, this year registered their participation across 14 nations and many other countries are joining in each year.

By simply growing a moustache or beard, the participants raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues, and specifically prostate cancer and depression.

Last year over $150 million was raised across the globe for organisations dealing with these issues.

Some Guardian staff, like many other businesses and groups in town, decided to support this great cause and started growing their moustaches with mixed success. As you can see elsewhere in this edition, some managed to create magnificent facial art works, while others, including this editor, could only produce a bit of fluff on the chin.

The hairy aspect is a bit of

Banks participating in the offer are ANZ New Zealand, ASB Bank, Bank of New Zealand, The Co-operative Bank, Kiwibank, SBS Bank, TSB Bank and Westpac New Zealand.

The overdrafts were valid until January 15, 2013, and limited to the value of the total amount of payments which had been delayed.

“I encourage affected school staff to get in touch with their bank so they know they’re covered and can have some peace of mind over the holidays,” Mr Hope said.

One who will not be taking up the offer is Purakaunui School secretary Jacque Ruston.

Retail banks across New Zealand have stepped in to help school staff financially affected by the Novopay debacle.

They are offering school staff interest-free overdrafts in the wake of continuing problems with the Ministry of Education’s new payroll system, which has left many employees without pay for up to four months.

New Zealand Bankers’ Association chief executive Kirk Hope said the issue “affects the largest single payroll in the country”.

“It’s about helping ensure affected teachers and staff continue to

Financial relief arrived for her this week when she was finally paid under the Novopay system.

The single mother of two went unpaid for nearly four months and relied on bank loans and interestfree loans from friends to pay her mortgage and other living expenses.

However, the banks’ offers may take the pressure off other frustrated school staff who continue to have problems.

Andrew Pearce, a relief teacher working in Dunedin schools, said he has not been paid for work he did at George Street Normal School on October 25, October 30 and November 1.

Instead, he was paid for a day’s

work on November 13 - a day he did not work there.

“Well, here we are at Pay 18 now, and I still have not been paid for these days. I guess it’s two out of the three that I am waiting for because November 13 must have been one of them.

“So once again, I am going to be waiting well over a month to get paid for days that should have been, and were apparently, dealt with some time ago.

“I don’t think the problems are going away anytime soon.”

Ministry of Education group manager Rebecca Elvy said the latest pay round for school staff went smoothly, with more than 92,000 staff paid this week, and believed it

a laugh and wonderful fodder for ridicule and discussion over a beer, but hopefully all those jokes will remind all of us of the serious message behind the campaign.

It is no surprise that Movember was born in Australia and quickly adopted across the ditch before the campaign went global.

Australian and Kiwi blokes have a lot in common, and whatever it is, most importantly it is that they’d rather not talk about it.

The number of men who die each year from prostate cancer is roughly the same as women who are claimed by breast cancer, but until recently the prostate threat barely figured in the public arena.

Men in this part of the world are reluctant to talk about their health and many consider a prostate check as the most dreaded invasion of their private space. Most of them don’t realise that a regular blood check can be just as effective as an early indicator.

Mental health issues are just as tough to broach with men, especially in rural New Zealand, and unfortunately it shows in our appalling suicide statistics.

Movember may be a joke to many, but has again raised considerable funds for research and support groups.

More importantly it puts these major issues out in the open.

If all that facial hair has prompted one Ashburton bloke to step into a doctor’s office, the campaign has been success already.

Bus driver caught texting may lose passenger licence

By Matthew Backhouse and Mike Dinsdale A former Naked Bus driver who was nabbed texting and talking on a cellphone could have his passenger licence permanently revoked after he was convicted of careless driving.

Auckland-based driver Grant Gordon Banks was photographed using the phone on State Highway 1 near Hikurangi in Northland on May 6 this year.

He was sentenced in Whangarei District Court this week, and was fined $100 and disqualified from

holding or obtaining a driving licence for six weeks.

Banks had 10 passengers aboard the northbound Naked Bus when he was seen by a passenger sending or receiving text messages on a cellphone.

He put that cellphone on the dashboard, and started talking on another cellphone which a passenger photographed before reporting it to police.

Defence lawyer Shaun Russell asked for a discharge without conviction, saying a conviction would end Banks’ 40-year career as a driver.

He said Naked Bus provided its

drivers with a company cellphone and would text updates to the drivers if they needed to make specific changes to pick-ups or drop offs.

Mr Russell said drivers were to check before leaving, but quite often messages came in while they were on the road and the drivers checked them while driving.

“He accepts he was using the work phone but he never texts on them.”

Naked Bus chief executive Hamish Nuttall said Banks was employed by a third party contractor and no longer worked for the company.

He said all Naked Bus drivers were instructed that cellphones were not to be used under any circumstances while driving, in accordance with the law.

“Passenger safety is of utmost importance to us and we regularly remind drivers not to use their phone while driving other than with the supplied bluetooth headpiece.”

Mr Nuttall said the company used a custom-made automated booking system that enabled information to be sent directly to an app on a driver’s phone.

“However, bookings are cut off before the bus leaves the previous

compulsory stop. There is never any need for a driver to check any phone once behind the wheel.”

NZ Transport Agency (NZTA) spokesman Andy Knackstedt said police alerted the agency whenever a driver with a passenger endorsement, such as a bus or taxi driver, was convicted.

If the NZTA found a driver was no longer fit and proper to drive passengers, it could suspend their endorsement for up to 10 years or revoke it completely.

Mr Knackstedt said it was currently reviewing Banks’ passenger endorsement.

Sentencing Banks this week,

Judge Simon Maude said the summary of facts, to which Banks pleaded guilty, made it clear he was using a cellphone while driving and this was supported by the photograph taken by the passenger.

The matter was too serious to discharge Banks without conviction.

“The use of a cellphone while driving is rightly regarded by the public as a serious risk. The seriousness, in my view, is heightened when the driver is in charge of a large vehicle and, significantly, is a professional driver for members of the public.”

Huge donation box Animal cruelty charges considered Dunedin’s largest donation box was installed on the steps of St Paul’s Anglican Cathedral yesterday.

The 16m cardboard tube is a replica of the tubes being used to construct the new Christchurch Transitional Cathedral and is in Dunedin to raise funds for the project.

“It’s exactly the same as the ones they’re building the Christchurch Cathedral with,” the Dean of St Paul’s the Very Rev Dr Trevor James said yesterday.

“We are showing solidarity with Christchurch with this exhibit. Although when they asked, I hadn’t understood how big it would be,” he said.

“I am delighted we can support Christchurch in this way.

The temporary cathedral, while controversial, is a vital first step for the church and people in Christchurch.”

The 700-seat Transitional Christchurch Cathedral, designed

by Japanese architect Shigeru Ba, will be built at the corner of Madras and Hereford Sts in April, after the Christchurch Cathedral was damaged beyond repair in the February 22, 2011, earthquake.

The structure will serve as a place for community worship and gathering until a new, permanent cathedral is built.

It will incorporate 98 of the cardboard tubes.

The ministry and Talent2 were working to ensure all staff were paid as expected for the Christmas period.

“It’s great that nearly 90% of schools have now completed the end-of-year pay process and we are working to support those who have yet to supply their information through both direct calls and visits from expert advisers,” Ms Elvy said.

By Matthew Backhouse Police are considering animal cruelty charges after a group of teenagers appeared to force a kitten to inhale the contents of a makeshift bong.

A photo of the incident, posted to Facebook by a 14-year-old Nelson boy, shows a group of teenagers holding the kitten’s mouth over a plastic bottle which appears to have been converted into a smoking device.

Nelson police spokeswoman Barbara Dunn said an investigation was launched after members of the public alerted the Nelson

police Facebook page on Monday.

The incident was believed to have happened several weeks ago.

Ms Dunn said police had spoken to two of the youths, who had denied cannabis was involved.

“We’re still piecing together what has actually happened,” she said.

“We need to speak to the other two people who were involved to work out what has actually happened. At this stage we don’t know that there was cannabis involved.”

Ms Dunn said police could not yet say whether any charges would be laid.

However, they had been speaking with the SPCA to see whether there was “potential ill-treatment of an animal”.

Ms Dunn agreed the photo was disturbing.

“We’ve had a pretty significant response from the community, coming to us and expressing their distaste for what these kids have done on Facebook, so there’s been a lot of people very unhappy with their behaviour.

“Whether or not there’s any actual criminal culpability, we don’t know that yet.”

Nelson SPCA inspector Craig Crowley said the incident was concerning.

“But in reality, a lot of the blame should be laid at the foot of their parents - 14-year-old kids doing this sort of thing is just a lack of parental control.”

Mr Crowley said under the Animal Welfare Act, parents were responsible for the actions of children under the age of 16.

He said the maximum penalty for ill-treatment of an animal was a $10,000 fine or six months in prison.

The SPCA’s Bob Kerridge said the boys deserve the punishment he hopes may be inflicted on them over the “sickening act of cruelty against a defenceless kitten.

Eastern suburbs a huge wasteland

By Cullen Smith The eastern suburbs red zone is quickly becoming a huge wasteland as houses disappear and nature takes over.

And it looks like remaining that way for many years.

City and government officials contacted by The Star could give no timeframe for any decisions on what the vast tract of land might eventually be used for when all condemned building are removed.

Mayor Bob Parker favours a “great park concept” stretching from the Botanic Gardens to the Estuary and possibly linking the

New Brighton Mall area.

He said a park encompassing the red zone from the city to the sea would provide a “significant opportunity for New Brighton to re-energise itself” and suggested a cycleway similar to the one through Hornby to Little River should be included.

But Mr Parker cannot say when such a leafy concept could become reality.

He said there was “a minefield of bureaucracy” surrounding the properties already bought by the Crown and he expected discussions would take place once the Government completed its purchasing processes.

A spokesman for Earthquake

Recovery Minister Gerry Brownlee said no decisions had been made about future use of vacant land in the eastern red zone.

More than 1300 houses have already been demolished, with about 6000 to go once the owners have settled sales to the Crown

by June 30, according to the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority (Cera).

A spokeswoman said it was difficult to be “absolutely specific” on the number still to be demolished because not all the 7860 red zone properties had buildings on them and a small number were expected to be removed by their former owners.

She said Cera was not seeking

ideas on how the land might be used.

Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) crown property manager Bill Naik said the government department was helping Cera with property management for eastern suburbs residential red zone properties.

“Cera and LINZ have agreed that LINZ will manage this land after the houses have been demolished, until its long term use has been determined by government,” he said.

Housing New Zealand owns 188 properties in the eastern red zone, of which one is still tenanted and three have been demolished.

A convicted rapist who phoned one of his victims from prison to persuade her to change her story in court has finally had his appeal against conviction heard, arguing he did not get a fair trial because he was not present for it.

Pravin Kumar has been serving a sentence of preventive detention after failing to turn up to his rape trial in 2009.

Despite his no-show, the trial went ahead and he was found guilty of rape, kidnapping and indecent assault.

Kumar took his case to the Court of Appeal, but before it was heard he phoned one of his victims on several occasions trying to persuade her to change her story to help with his appeal.

Knowing she was suffering from schizophrenia and living in a mental healthcare facility he posed as a doctor and chatted to her about her medic a t i o n and her cat, before challenging the woman’s evidence.

Kumar w a s charged with perverting the course of justice Pravin Kumar and was later found guilty. He was acquitted of a second charge of perverting the course of justice.

He was sentenced in the High Court at Auckland in September to a further three years in prison for perverting the course of justice.

In the Court of Appeal yesterday Kumar’s lawyer Robert Lithgow argued that the original rape trial was not a fair trial because Kumar was not present.

Kumar absconded on bail the night before his trial was due to go ahead in the High Court at Auckland.

Justice Chris Allan decided to proceed without Kumar there, but Mr Lithgow yesterday called into question the amount of preparation and time Kumar’s trial lawyer put into the case.

“He just does not spend time because there is no time there available to do these things.”

But the Court of Appeal judges, Justices John Wild, Anthony Randerson and Ellen France, yesteray asked why Kumar, who “deliberately absconded” from trial, did not complain about the lack of his lawyer’s preparedness before going to trial.

Mr Lithgow said the basis of Kumar’s defence - that there was no sexual intercourse, therefore it could not be rape - was not put to the jury by his trial lawyer.

“In this case the jury are the fact-finders and they are not told a thing.”

It was also not put to the jury that one of the victims could have been lying when her statement to police and evidence on the stand did not match up, and it should have been, Mr Lithgow said.

“And because Mr Kumar wasn’t there to argue with that strategy, the system does not allow a definite way of telling fact-finders what Mr Kumar’s defence actually was.”

Kumar was present at yesterday’s Court of Appeal hearing, sitting quietly towards the back of the room and working through a pile of extensive notes throughout the hearing.

The hearing began on Wednesday and continues.

Property hotshot escapes prison

By Edward Gay and Abby Gillies A fallen property hotshot wants to move on after escaping a prison sentence for faking documents to try to save his friend from bankruptcy.

Ralph Anthony Vuletic, 31, was sentenced to nine months’ home detention when he appeared at the High Court in Auckland yesterday.

He was facing Serious Fraud Office (SFO) charges after faking a debt to help friend and co-accused Marcus Friedlander avoid bankruptcy and dodge $10 million worth of bills from creditors nine years ago.

Vuletic had earlier pleaded guilty to using a document to defraud, attempting to pervert the course of justice and forging a document.

Friedlander is awaiting sentence after pleading guilty to numerous counts of making forged documents, three of using a document for a pecuniary advantage and two of attempting to pervert the course of justice.

Vuletic’s lawyer Peter Winter said his client was “very young and impressionable” when the offending happened and he had learnt from it.

“I think he’s pleased that it’s all been resolved and it’s over. He certainly wants to put this behind him and move on,” he said.

During a previous hearing Mr Winter said his client had not stood to gain financially from the offending and had been influenced by the older Friedlander.

However the prosecution dismissed Vuletic’s claim as the plea of “a poor little rich boy”.

The sentencing caps a significant fall from grace.

In 2003, Vuletic was considered the property industry’s youngest “mover and shaker”.

He was a 22-year-old who drove a Ferrari convertible at an age when

most people struggled with student debt, owned a Walther PPK gun, the brand favoured by James Bond, and had a full-time bodyguard, the National Business Review reported.

Vuletic told a law newsletter: “Cars speak plainly about success.

People seem to be more impressed by what you drive than what you save.”

Despite the pair’s image, Friedlander was faced with failing property development and insurance brokering businesses, and owed more than $10 million to creditors.

To avoid bankruptcy and shortchange his creditors, the pair created an “elaborate scheme”, SFO Acting Chief Executive Simon McArley said.

In sentencing yesterday Justice Murray Gilbert SC said Vuletic forged a series of letters and a sale and purchase agreement to give the impression that his friend was owed $19m.

Justice Gilbert said the aim to convince his friend’s creditors to stop bankruptcy action against him.

The ruse did not work and Friedlander was bankrupted in 2003.

Justice Gilbert said he accepted Vuletic made no gains from the forged documents.

In sentencing he made allowances for Vuletic’s youth at the time of his offending - he was only 22 - but said the case against him was strong.

As well as nine months of home detention Vuletic was ordered to stay off drugs and alcohol.

Outside court, Mr McArley told APNZ the case was important because it maintains the rights of creditors.

“If people are going to invest in our economy and in our markets have to have confidence in the markets and the justice system.”

Gran’s care costs $6300 a day

By Kieran Campbell The family of a Fijian woman on life support in Auckland after suffering a heart attack four hours into her New Zealand holiday will meet doctors today about the cost of keeping her alive.

Vijay Kumari’s New Zealand family have been pushed to the brink, with medical costs of more than $120,000 over two years for the 58-year-old, who last night remained in the intensive care unit at Auckland City Hospital, 11 days after the heart attack.

Her daughter, Sandy Naidu, said she could not bring herself to turn

off her mother’s life support, despite there being no certainty about her recovery and medical costs of about $6300 a day.

It is the second time Mrs Kumari, who is a Fijian citizen and came to New Zealand without travel insurance, has needed operations in Auckland.

Last year Ms Naidu flew her mother to Auckland for $42,000 in medical attention to save her foot from being amputated due to complications with her diabetes.

Mrs Kumari’s heart attack was unexpected, and it is hoped doctors will be able to tell the family more detail today about her chances of recovery.

“She opened her eyes and looked at me, and when she did there were tears rolling down her face,” Ms Naidu said after visiting her mum in hospital this week.

“Straight away I knew she was coming back. I can’t give up on her after [that].”

Ms Naidu, a resthome carer, and her prison officer husband Ashik Chand are working extra shifts to help meet costs.

They re-mortgaged their home last year and are now planning to sell their car to help contribute to the growing list of bills.

Ms Naidu said she feared immigration officials would send her mother back to Fiji if she could not

prove she was paying the medical bills.

She has already received a bill of $86,000 for her mother’s first week of care after her heart attack.

Ms Naidu said not paying for her mother’s travel insurance was the result of a “mindblock” when she booked the last-minute flights for her visit.

“Travel insurance just never crossed my mind,” she said. “It’s just so unfortunate.”

Ms Naidu said she had promised hospital staff she was dedicated to paying her mother’s medical bills.

“I don’t know [how I’m going to afford it], but I will say I truly won’t stop,” Ms Naidu said.

Sapper Horace Moore-Jones will be honoured later today when a city street will be renamed in his honour.

Governor-General Sir Jerry Mateparae will launch Sapper Moore-Jones Place - the former Marlborough Place at the southern boundary of the former Hamilton Hotel site.

Acclaimed Anzac soldier artist Sapper Horace Moore-Jones, known for his Man with the Donkey Gallipoli painting, will be

named a Hamilton hero and commemorated with the street naming in a ceremony to be attended by Moore-Jones’ descendants from Auckland, Tauranga and Australia, plus the son of Richard Henderson, the field medic from Waihi memorialised in the famous Anzac painting.

Hamilton’s TOTI Trust called for the name change to mark the centennial of Gallipoli and World War One which coincides with the city’s 150th anniversary as a military settlement in the Waikato War (1863-64).

More than 100 tonnes of Rena’s rusted remains have been brought ashore as salvagers prepare for Christmas away from their families. Salvagers working on removing the bow section of the stricken cargo ship have about 30 per cent of the body left before they complete the current phase of the recovery operation, Resolve Marine Group Salvage Master Frank Leckey said.

The coroner concluded he could have saved his own life “but hearing the cries of women in distress he went back to their aid, and sending them on to the balcony, again went back to carry on his

rescue work. Later he was found on the roof of the building next door, and had to be lifted down by members of the fire brigade.”

He died shortly after in Waikato Hospital.

The Hamilton Hotel was rebuilt in 1923. Now in the heart of the city’s cafe and bar zone, it is classified a heritage site.

Moore-Jones was among the first Anzac soldiers ashore in the disastrous April, 1915 landing on the Gallipoli Peninsula now commemorated as Anzac Day. The Allies had no reliable maps

Lundy’s appeal shocks family Mark Lundy’s brother says a planned appeal by his sibling to the Privy Council against his convictions for murdering his wife and daughter brings everything back to the surface for his family.

Mark Lundy is serving 20 years in prison for murdering his wife Christine and his 7-year-old daughter Amber in a brutal axe attack in their Palmerston North home in August 2000.

In 2002 he lost an appeal to the Court of Appeal, and had his nonparole period increased to 20 years then the longest non-parole period for a life sentence ever handed down in New Zealand.

Lundy’s brother Craig Lundy said today the news he had applied to appeal to the Privy Council brought everything back.

“Everything was just lying nice and low and it brings everything back into the forefront and just puts stress and everything on me and my family. I wanted to keep my kids, my wife and me...everything nice and easy,” Mr Lundy told National Radio.

He believed his brother was guilty of the murders and said he felt vulnerable when publicity around the case increased.

“It does make it difficult because you don’t know what’s going to happen. It’s

Mark Lundy just fearful for what’s going to happen around the corner and how are we going to get through with the things with the kids, with their vulnerability.”

He believed Mark was guilty because of what people had said to him and “what I know of him, what he is just as a brother”.

“It’s not going to change anything, he’s still my brother, I still love him as a brother, but there’s a difference between head and heart.”

He did not know what grounds Lundy would be appealing on, nor did he know anything about how it would be funded.

A spokesman for Mark Lundy support group Factual (For Amber and Christine - Truth Uncovered about Lundys) said a new appeal was lodged with the the judicial committee of the Privy Council in London on Monday.

Lundy would be represented by lawyer David Hislop QC, a New Zealander who now works in the UK. Factual was largely funding the appeal, the spokesman said.

“Most of it’s pro bono really. We’ve had a lot of people work pro bono and all of the scientists worked free of charge.”

Should it go ahead, the appeal could be one of the last of its kind - the Supreme Court replaced the Privy Council as New Zealand’s highest court in 2004.

According to the Supreme Court Act, 2003, the Privy Council can still determine appeals in certain existing proceedings, including appeals against Court of Appeal judgements made before January 1, 2004.

Morsi power grab sets off protests Tens of thousands of people have packed Tahrir Square to protest against a power grab by Mohamed Morsi, piling pressure on Egypt’s Islamist president as he faces his most divisive crisis since coming to power in June.

The huge turnout in the square in the heart of Cairo, as well as in the Mediterranean city of Alexandria and most of Egypt’s 27 provinces, marked the largest mobilisation yet against the president.

Elsewhere in the country, protesters enraged by Morsi’s decision to grant himself sweeping powers attacked three regional headquarters belonging to the president’s Muslim Brotherhood movement, a security official said.

In Tahrir, protesters who had voted for Morsi in the election joined forces with die-hard opponents of the Islamist.

“I’m here to protest Morsi’s autocratic decisions,” said Mohammed Rashwan, an engineering graduate who voted for Morsi in the country’s first presidential election since a popular uprising toppled Hosni Mubarak last year.

“I have discovered that he is pro-Muslim Brotherhood and not the revolution,” Rashwan told AFP from the packed square.

Throughout the afternoon and into the evening, marchers poured into Tahrir Square, swelling the numbers, amid an electrifying atmosphere many said reminded them of the 2011 uprising.

The protesters are angry at the decree that Morsi announced last week allowing him to “issue any decision or law that is final and not subject to appeal”, which effec-

tively placed him beyond judicial oversight.

The decree put him on a collision course with the judiciary and consolidated the long-divided opposition which accuses him of taking on dictatorial powers.

The demonstrations come a day after Morsi stuck by his decree after a meeting with the country’s top judges aimed at defusing the crisis.

“The solution is to cancel the constitutional declaration ... We won’t replace a dictator with another,” said protester Asser Ayub, 23, waving an Egyptian flag.

In Alexandria, thousands gathered in Qait Ibrahim square. The Muslim Brotherhood wrote on its Twitter account that it ordered its members to evacuate the group’s headquarters after it came under attack.

“Down with the rule of the supreme guide,” the protesters shouted, in reference to Brotherhood leader Mohammed Badie, a chant echoed in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, where hundreds took to the streets.

Protesters also stormed and ransacked the group’s headquarters in the Nile Delta city of Mansura, a security official said, and attacked the Islamists’ office in the city of Mahalla.

Three people have died in clashes since Morsi decreed his new powers.

A rival rally in Cairo by the Muslim Brotherhood in support of the president was called off to “avoid potential unrest” but that has done little to abate the split between Morsi’s supporters and foes.

PSY wants Tom Cruise to go Gangnam Style

PSY

The South Korean rapper behind YouTube’s most-viewed video ever has set what might be a Mission: Impossible for himself.

Asked which celebrity he would like to see go Gangnam Style, the singer PSY told The Associated Press: “Tom Cruise!”

Surrounded by screaming fans, he then chuckled at the idea of the American movie star doing his now famous horse-riding dance.

PSY’s comments yesterday in Bangkok were his first public remarks since his viral smash video – with 838 million views – surpassed Justin Bieber’s Baby,

which until the weekend held the record with 803 million views.

“It’s amazing,” PSY told a news conference, saying he never set out to become an international star. “I made this video just for Korea, actually. And when I released this song – wow.”

The video has spawned hundreds of parodies and tribute videos and earned him a spotlight alongside a variety of superstars.

Earlier this month, Madonna invited PSY onstage and they danced to his song at one of her New York City concerts. MC Hammer introduced the Korean star at the American Music

Awards as, “My Homeboy PSY!” Even President Barack Obama is talking about him. Asked on Election Day if he could do the dance, Obama replied: “I think I can do that move,” but then concluded he might “do it privately for Michelle,” the first lady.

PSY was in Thailand to give a free concert yesterday organised as a tribute to the country’s revered King Bhumibol Adulyadej, who turns 85 next month. He paid respects to the king at a Bangkok shopping mall, signing his name in an autograph book placed beside a giant poster of the king. He then gave

• Blasts kill 54 Simultaneous car bombings have killed more than 50 people and left a trail of destruction in a town near Syria’s capital, as rebels downed a second military aircraft in as many days.

The explosives-packed cars were detonated at daybreak in a pro-regime neighbourhood of the mainly Christian and Druze town of Jaramana, residents, state media and a rights watchdog reported. The blasts ripped through a central square near a petrol station, sending residents fleeing in panic. There was a ball of fire at the end of a narrow lane, and the impact of the explosions brought walls down on to cars, crushing them and scattering debris over the ground. Pools of blood and severed body parts were on the streets, said an AFP photographer in the town.

Rabbit-killer jailed An Italian teacher has been sentenced to eight months in prison for killing two rabbits with a hammer in front of his pupils in an anatomy class, the animal protection association LAV said yesterday.

Carlo Rando, a trained surgeon, had ordered a delivery of four dead rabbits to be dissected for his class, the association said.

Two were dead when they arrived but the two were alive and escaped into the classroom before being captured by the

teacher. He first tried to strangle them, then punched them and finally finished them off with a hammer in front of terrified teens, LAV said.

“Horrific scenes worthy of an abattoir were played out in front of minors,” the group said, hailing “the courage of other teachers and pupils who wanted to denounce the terrible actions of their teacher”.

Michela Kuan, a biologist working for LAV, said: “Such barbaric methods are unacceptable not just from an ethical standpoint but also because they are completely useless since anatomy is no longer taught by dissecting animals.”

Photographs of the two children allegedly stabbed by their nanny are displayed at memorial outside the apartment building were they lived in New York.

Nanny pleads not guilty in child deaths A nanny from the Dominican Republic accused in the stabbing deaths of two children in her care at their upscale Manhattan home pleaded not guilty yesterday inside a hospital room where she’s been treated for self-inflicted stab wounds.

Yoselyn Ortega – lying handcuffed in her hospital bed in silence, her right hand trembling – entered the plea through her defence attorney.

“I ask you to enter a not guilty

plea on behalf of my client,” said the lawyer, Valerie Van LeerGreenberg.

Van Leer-Greenberg also told Judge Lewis Bart Stone that her client remains “profoundly, medically impaired and in need of medical attention”.

Stone ordered Ortega held without bail while she undergoes psychiatric exam. The judge, like two prosecutors and everyone else crowded into the room, wore a hospital gown.

Ortega, 50, appeared alert but didn’t speak during the 10-minute hearing.

She had a tube leading to her throat, but was breathing on her own. She wore a blue hair net.

No wounds were visible.

The hospital room was sparse: There were no flowers, photos or other personal items on display.

The unusual bedside arraignment came as District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. announced an indictment charging Ortega with

multiple counts of murder.

“This crime shocked and horrified parents around the city, many of whom entrust their children to the care of others both by necessity and by choice,” Vance said in a statement.

Authorities allege that on the evening of October 25, while the children’s mother was out with a third child, Ortega repeatedly stabbed six-year-old Lucia Krim and her two-year-old brother, Leo. – AP

Texas out to seize Warren 177 injured in Tunisian riots Jeffs’ polygamist ranch Texas wants ownership of Warren Jeffs’ massive polygamist ranch where prosecutors say the convicted sect leader and his followers sexually assaulted dozens of children, the state attorney general’s office said yesterday.

A judge will determine whether to grant the state control of the 650ha property owned by the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

The sect bought the land for more than $1.1 million in 2003, according to court records. The affidavit, filed yesterday, does not provide a current value for the Yearning for Zion Ranch. Texas has spent more than $4.5 million in prosecuting the cases against Jeffs and 10 of his followers.

Jerry Strickland, a spokesman for the attorney general’s office, said the warrant begins the final chapter in the state’s five-year-old case against Jeffs.

“This is simply the next step,” Strickland said.

Texas Rangers raided the ranch in April 2008, following a call to a domestic abuse hotline that turned out to be false, and took 439 children into state custody. Jeffs last year was convicted of sexually assaulting two minors whom he described as his spiritual wives. At trial, prosecutors presented DNA evidence to show he fathered a child with one of those girls, aged 15.

Jeffs, 56, is serving a life prison term in Texas. He has continued to try to lead his roughly 10,000 followers from behind bars. The sect is a radical offshoot of mainstream Mormonism whose mem-

Warren Jeffs bers believe polygamy brings exaltation in heaven.

It’s not known how many people still live at the secluded Eldorado ranch located about 320km west of San Antonio, but the seizure warrant does not require them to leave. The property is so far off the main roads that only helicopters or planes can provide a true glimpse of the ranch.

Strickland said it was too early to speculate about what the state would do with the property if given ownership. The group will have a chance to contest any seizure.

Jeffs’ most devoted followers consider him God’s spokesman on earth and a prophet, but they were absent from court for the bulk of

an outdoor press conference, as screaming fans nearby performed the pop star’s dance.

Determined not to be a onehit wonder, PSY said he plans to release a worldwide album in March with dance moves that he thinks his international fans will like.

“I think I have plenty of dance moves left,” he said, in his trademark sunglasses and dark suit.

“But I’m really concerned about the (next) music video.”

“How can I beat Gangnam Style?” he asked, smiling. “How can I beat 850 million views?”

his criminal trial.

Paving the way to Jeffs’ conviction were his own “priesthood records” – diary-like volumes, covering tens of thousands of pages, in which Jeffs recounts his sexual encounters and records even his most mundane daily activities.

Prosecutors cite the records in the 91-page affidavit filed yesterday.

“This will be a major gathering place of the saints that are driven,” Jeffs wrote. “You can see it is well isolated. In looking at this location, we can raise crops all year round. There is no building code requirements. We can build as we wish without inspectors coming in.

There is a herd of animals that the storehouse needs, that we can nourish and increase.”

Under Texas law, authorities can seize property that was used to commit or facilitate certain criminal conduct, such as a home being used as a stash house for drugs.

Strickland said he didn’t immediately know where this attempted seizure would rank among the state’s biggest efforts to claim ownership of criminal property.

In the affidavit, prosecutors allege that sect members illegally structured financial transactions and that Jeffs personally toured the ranch before the land was purchased.

Jeffs wanted the “a rural location where the FLDS could operate a polygamist compound where the systemic sexual assault of children would be tolerated without interference from law enforcement authorities”, according to the affidavit.

A strike in a low income region of Tunisia has degenerated into a second day of clashes between police and protesters, leaving 177 people injured, including some seriously, a hospital official said yesterday.

A local labor union organised a general strike in Siliana, a poor town in Tunisia’s interior, on Wednesday to protest a lack of jobs and government investment. Witnesses say police violently dispersed a peaceful march to the city hall for the second day in a row.

“A climate of panic, tension and fear has gripped the region,” said Iyadh Dahmani, the area’s representative in legislative assembly.

He denounced the use of tear-gas and shotguns by police to disperse the demonstrators.

The Interior Ministry, however, maintained that police only

moved against the demonstration when they attacked city hall and threw stones at security forces.

Nejib Sebti, one of the organizers of the original strike on Wednesday, said that more than 10,000 people rallied peacefully in front of city hall calling for more local development.

“Egged on by the governor who rejects any dialogue, security forces reacted in a manner even more brutal than the repression of Ben Ali,” he said, referring to the president overthrown by Tunisians in January 2011.

Since the fall of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, the Tunisian economy has suffered and the country has been wracked by demonstrations and strikes as people protest the lack of jobs.

On Wednesday, the World Bank approved a $500 million loan to help support reforms in Tunisia’s

financial sector to encourage investment and growth.

Tunisia’s revolution, which sparked similar uprisings across the region, began in the impoverished interior of the country, which suffers in comparison to the more affluent coast.

Dr Aymen Aissa of the local hospital told The Associated Press that 177 people had been treated at the hospital with 22 sent to the capital Tunis for further treatment – including some with eye injuries.

The hospital had reported 14 people injured in clashes Wednesday. In addition to more jobs, demonstrators are also calling for the resignation of the government, a member of the moderate Islamist Ennahda Party that dominated last year’s elections, and the release of 14 jailed activists.

Ice larger than US melted in 2012 An area of Arctic sea ice bigger than the United States melted this year, according the UN weather agency, which said the dramatic decline illustrates that climate change is happening “before our eyes”.

In a report released at UN climate talks in the Qatari capital of Doha, the World Meteorological Organisation said the Arctic ice melt was one of a myriad of extreme and record-breaking weather events to hit the planet in 2012. Droughts devastated nearly two-thirds of the United States as well as western Russia and southern Europe. Floods swamped west Africa and heat waves left much of the Northern

Hemisphere sweltering.

But it was the ice melt that seemed to dominate the annual climate report, with the UN concluding ice cover had reached “a new record low” in the area around the North Pole and that the loss from March to September was a staggering 11.83 million square kilometres – an area bigger than the United States.

“The alarming rate of its melt this year highlighted the farreaching changes taking place on Earth’s oceans and biosphere,” WMO Secretary-General Michel Jarraud said. “Climate change is taking place before our eyes and will continue to do so as a result

of the concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, which have risen constantly and again reached new records.”

The dire climate news – following on the heels of a report Wednesday that found melting permafrost could significantly amplify global warming – comes as delegates from nearly 200 countries struggled for a third day to lay the groundwork for a deal that would cut emissions in an attempt to ensure that temperatures don’t rise more than 2°C over what they were in preindustrial times. Temperatures have already risen about 0.8°C, according to the latest report by the IPCC. – AP

Two men pinned under a Fraser Island tourist bus have been airlifted to hospital. The bus was being driven along the beach, north of the Maheno Wreck, when it got a flat tyre.

The driver and a passenger were changing the tyre when another passenger got back on the bus, causing it to roll.

The 49-year-old driver from Rainbow Beach had his hand crushed while the 29-year-old UK tourist helping him suffered cuts to his left arm. Both men were airlifted to Hervey Bay Hospital in a stable condition.

Palestine likely to get yes from UN A large majority of the 193 member states of the United Nations are expected to vote in favour of an upgraded status for the Palestinians at the world body’s General Assembly today.

Among the ‘no’ votes will figure those of Israel, and its key Western ally the United States, which is one of the five powerful permanent members of the UN Security Council. Germany has also said it will vote against the new status.

Russia and China, which also have permanent seats on the Security Council, have long stated that they will vote in favour of granting the Palestinian Authority the status of a ‘non-member state’.

However, attention is likely to focus on a handful of Western states, such as France, who have said they will favour the motion.

The other permanent Security Council member, Britain, said yesterday that it would abstain in the vote unless certain conditions, including the return of the Palestinians to peace talks and a promise by them to refrain from taking Israel before the International Criminal Court (ICC), were fulfilled.

Australia will also abstain from voting.

Men stand by an overturned car after a tornado struck a steel plant in Taranto, southern Italy, yesterday.

A man is missing and 20 people have been injured after a tornado hit the beleaguered ILVA steel plant in southern Italy.

Firemen said they were looking for a man who was working on a crane that collapsed into the sea.

ILVA’s owners, the Riva Group, said 20 people were treated at the site and two were taken to hospital yesterday.

Kids at a nearby school and a bus driver were among those

lightly injured, authorities added.

ILVA – the biggest steelworks in Europe, which risks closure because of a legal battle over its pollution levels – “suffered great structural damage which still has to be quantified,” the Riva Group said in a statement.

Protests have been taking place at the site since Tuesday, when Riva said it would halt activities after a judge impounded the plant’s output and ordered the

New Zealand business confidence rose this month as firms became more upbeat about the outlook for profits, hiring and investment. Canterbury was the most upbeat region.

A net 26 per cent of respondents in the ANZ Bank Business Outlook expect general business conditions to improve in the year ahead, up from 17.2 per cent in the previous month’s survey. Those expecting a better 12

months out of their own businesses rose to 32 per cent from 25.5 per cent.

Improved hiring intentions bode well for an economy where the unemployment rate is 7.3 per cent and Australia is seen as a good choice for an increasing number of Kiwi workers. Hiring intentions were firmest in the construction sector, with a net 31 per cent of companies planning to take on more workers as the rebuild of

Christchurch picks up steam. Strong readings in Canterbury “tie in with increasing signs of rebuild-related activity, a dynamic that will become more pronounced in the economic data over 2013,” said Cameron Bagrie, chief economist at ANZ Bank New Zealand At the same time there’s little concern about rising prices, with inflation expectations slipping back to 2.24 per

cent, the lowest since October 1999, from 2.36 per cent in last month’s survey.

That meshes with perceptions in the Reserve Bank’s survey of expectations this week and underlines that there’s little pressure on the bank to hike interest rates any time soon. The next monetary policy statement is scheduled for release on December 6.

Exports remain the weak spot in

the economy, Bagrie said. A net 17 per cent of exporters are expecting a pickup in the year ahead, up from 14 per cent in the previous month though still at a “timid” level. The high kiwi dollar is probably the root cause.

The New Zealand dollar recently traded at 82.39 US cents from 82.11 cents on Wednesday. The currency has held above 80 cents since early September.

When David Campese fired off a tweet questioning whether a female reporter should cover rugby he was adding to a long list of gaffes on the micro-blogging site. The ex-Wallaby’s missive was preceded just that morning by federal Labor MP Steve Gibbons calling Deputy Opposition Leader Julie Bishop a bimbo.

Time and again we’ve seen how easy it is to get into trouble on Twitter.

And that’s partly why the site is so popular – because it offers raw, unedited access to the thoughts of well-known people. So in that spirit we take a look at some major Australian Twitter gaffes: – Sydney-born actor Hugh Jackman apologised in April 2009 after tweeting: “Having lunch on the harbor across from the Opera Center. Loving life!”

Not only did Hugh get the name of the nation’s most famous landmark wrong, he also used the American spelling of “centre” and “harbour”. Tut Tut. He later explained that an assistant in the US actually sent the tweet.

– Media mogul Rupert Murdoch’s perhaps best known gaffe came in January when he suggested Aussie telco Optus was being widely criticised. “Seems like universal anger with Optus from all sorts of normal supporters.” Murdoch had meant to write “POTUS” – President Of The United States – but the autocorrect tool changed it to Optus.

– Cricketer Phil Hughes got into trouble for leaking team information ahead of the third Ashes Test at Edgbaston in 2009. The batsman used Twitter to announce he had been axed from the line-up about three hours before the start of play.

– Actor Russell Crowe apologised in June 2011 after appearing to criticise circumcision. In an exchange with a Jewish friend he wrote: “Circumcision is barbaric and stupid. Who are you to correct nature? Is it real that GOD requires a donation of foreskin? Babies are perfect.” He later apologised for any offence: “I have a deep and abiding love for all people of all nationalities. I’m very sorry that I have said things on here that have caused distress.”

Hanan Ashrawi that they would support the General Assembly motion are Austria, Denmark, Norway, Spain, Switzerland and Turkey.

Hanan Ashrawi, a senior member of the Palestine Liberation Organisation, said yesterday that a number of governments were seeking guarantees that if the Palestinians gained the new status, they would refrain from taking Israel before the ICC in the Hague.

Despite Britain’s expected abstention, and opposition to the bid from nations including the United States and Germany, the Palestinians are expected to easily win approval at the 193-member General Assembly.

“We’re going to have a vast majority, a vast majority, more than two-thirds,” Ashrawi said.

The White House and a key congressional Democrat hinted at fresh concessions on taxes and cuts to government benefit programmes yesterday as bargaining with Republicans lurched ahead to avoid the year-end “fiscal cliff” that threatens to send the economy into a tailspin.

Increasing numbers of rank-andfile Republicans also said they were ready to give ground, a boost for House Speaker John Boehner and other party leaders who say they will agree to higher tax revenues as part of a deal if it also curbs benefit programmes as a way to rein in federal deficits. The goal of the talks is to produce a long-term deficit-cutting deal that will allow the cancellation of tax increases and spending cuts scheduled for the end of the year – the “fiscal cliff” that numerous economists say threaten a new recession.

“I’ll go anywhere and I’ll do whatever it takes to get this done,” President Barack Obama said as he sought to build pressure on Republicans to accept his terms – a swift renewal of expiring tax cuts for all but the highest income earners.

“It’s too important for Washington to screw this up,” he declared.

For all the talk, there was no sign of tangible progress on an issue that marks a first test for divided government since elections that assured Obama a second term in the White House while renewing Republican control in the House.

“It’s time for the president and Democrats to get serious about the spending problem that our country has,” Boehner said at a news conference. He, like Obama, expressed optimism that a deal could be reached.

At the same time, he publicly disagreed with one Republican lawmaker, Rep. Tom Cole of Oklahoma, who said he was ready to go along

‘rort’ leaves tiny tax bill

Separately, at a closed-door meeting with the rank and file, the speaker told fellow Republicans they are on solid political ground in refusing to let tax rates rise. He circulated polling data showing the

Speaking to reporters before a session with business leaders, House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California said the bargaining ought to begin where deficit talks between Obama and Boehner broke down 18 months ago “and go from there to reach an agreement.”

Facebook’s “tiny” and “barely believable” tax bill this year makes a mockery of New Zealand’s tax loopholes for multinationals, says the Labour Party.

In a statement entitled “Facebook’s tiny tax bill demands action from Dunne”, Labour’s Revenue spokesperson David Clark said the social media site’s New Zealand arm paid a mere $14,497 last year.

Its tax bill in the 2010 financial year was an even smaller $5238, he said.

“For a company that has 2.2 million users in New Zealand and makes billions worldwide, that’s barely believable.”

Facebook appeared to be using the ‘double Irish’ tax technique, Clark said.

“That’s where it uses Irish Facebook, which pays just 12.5 per cent tax, to determine revenue and expenses.”

This ensures the company can put most of its revenue through countries with low-tax systems, he said.

“Peter Dunne calls that ‘legitimate tax avoidance’. I call it a rort.”

Clark said the New Zealand government needed to follow the lead of Australia, which was bringing in laws to clamp down on this type of tax avoidance.

“Peter Dunne doesn’t realise that New Zealand is beginning to get a reputation as something of a see-no-evil tax haven.”

He said Google New Zealand was also “funnelling revenue” through its low-tax Irish counterpart, paying only $109,038 tax on $4,447,898 in revenue last year.

“That’s 2 per cent, way below our 28 per cent corporate rate.

“These companies should pay the right amount of tax here. That’s only fair.” – APNZ

Moustached men from Ashburton College hand out moorish munchables as part of a fundraising sausage sizzle for Movember. Fake moustaches were handed out to younger participants in an effort to raise awareness of what Movember stands for, to encourage inquisitiveness and understanding among the students.

From the Magnum PI look to the Merv Hughes, a Charlie Chaplin or maybe even a Salvador Dali, the time of the cookie dusters and soup strainers are coming to an end. Top lips throughout New Zealand are just itching to be taken to with a razor as Movember, a month-long fundraising and awareness event draws to a close.

Today this mo-mentous month of the mo ends on what has been another successful men’s health awareness month, with emphasis toward prostate cancer awareness and depression.

Established in Australia in 2003, Movember is now a global phenomenon, with more and more men joining in each year, sporting the upper lip caterpillars to help the fundraising effort, which

Much emphasis is also placed on raising awareness, and encouraging kiwi men to talk through any issues they may be facing, and to be pro-active in seeking family medical history on cancer.

Ashburton College and the Ashburton Guardian would like to thank all those who have supported the fundraising appeal throughout November, and congratulate all those who have taken part, including the supportive women who have assisted with fundraising efforts, and who have endured a month of prickly kisses

NZ hopes high for mounted games New Zealand’s hopes for next year’s Mounted Games World Team Championships are looking golden, according to coach and selector Scott Borland.

The 40-year-old said he had a tough time selecting his team of five riders and two reserves from 13 contenders. “It’s got to be a good omen,� he said. “This team is good ... really good. They have plenty of experience and a lot of exposure at top international level.

I am confident they’ll win the gold.�

The New Zealand team is spearheaded by Dee Cherrington (Northland/ United Kingdom) who has won individual, pairs and team world titles, and is currently based in the UK. Also part of the team is Julie Borland (Auckland), who has won national open titles in individuals, pairs and teams, and also brings plenty of talent to the side.

Rounding out the starting lineup are Steven Hooker (Waikato/ Germany), Nancy Te Whata (Northland), who was part of the New Zealand team to win the world teams championship in 2008, and Amie Bentall (Hawkes Bay).

New Zealand is hosting the championships at the Horse of the Year Show in Hastings in March, where at least 10 countries are expected to compete.

VIRGO (Aug 24th Sep 23rd) If you have kept thinking about something you want such as a personal dream, don’t believe it will never come to you.

If you start to visualise this event in your own kind of cosmic ordering, you are setting in train the possibility simply by connecting to your hopes. Your personal expression is heightened and it can create some magic.

LIBRA (Sep 24th Oct 23rd) It may be that you can’t quite get the funds together to do something you are keen to achieve, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen. Think again. Someone may be able to help, perhaps even a family member, or you may be able to do something more creative with your own financial circumstances. It’s not the amount that is at issue but the method.

Just the Kiwis and Australians will be riding their own horses, with the rest on borrowed mounts. That in itself brings huge challenges for the organisers, who are training about 100 ponies from around the country.

It’s rare for a country to win on borrowed horses, but New Zealand did just that in Australia in 2008.

Coach Borland, Cherrington and Te Whata were riders in that team, with Bentall a reserve.

For coach Borland, who has also ridden for Scotland and Great Britain, the Kiwis stand out from the crowd when it comes to mounted games. “New Zealand is without doubt one of the most professional teams in the world,� he said. “I believe that will give us a huge edge come March. This is as good as it gets.�

Riders in mounted games compete in a variety of races on ponies up to a height of 15 hands.

NZ team: Dee Cherrington (Northland/United Kingdom), Julie Borland (Auckland), Steven Hooker (Waikato/Germany), Amie Bentall (Hawke’s Bay), Nancy Te Whata (Northland). Reserves: Amy Wiltshire (Hawke’s Bay), Josh Dewar (Hawke’s Bay). Coach: Scott Borland (Waikato).

Team manager: Louise Egging (Waikato).

McCaw, Carter on rugby awards list Richie McCaw and Dan Carter have both made the four-man shortlist for the IRB Player of the Year award.

The All Blacks skipper is in line to win the award for a fourth time, while Carter has won it once before.

The duo are joined by two surprising entries, back-up England No10 Owen Farrell and another first-five, the rejuvenated Frederic Michalak of France.

McCaw is the only player to have received the accolade more than once in its 11-year history, having won in 2006, 2009 and 2010. Carter won in 2005. France flanker Thierry Dusautoir captured the 2011 award.

IRB chairman Bernard Lapasset said that it had been difficult to select only four candidates.

“As ever, the competition has been fierce and the panel had a tough time deliberating the shortlist from a number of stand-out candidates,�

Lapasset said. “All four players on the shortlist thoroughly deserve their place after standout performances during the year and consistency in the tough environment that is test rugby.�

The winner, chosen by an independent panel of international greats, will be announced on Monday, along with IRB Coach of the Year and IRB Team of the Year.

The panel comprises Will Greenwood, Gavin Hastings, Raphael Ibanez, Francois Pienaar, Agustin Pichot, Scott Quinnell, Tana Umaga and Paul Wallace.

Ponting retires from test cricket arena There wasn’t a dry eye in the house yesterday morning at the Australian team hotel when Ricky Ponting broke the news to teammates that he was retiring from Test cricket.

Ponting will play his 168th and final Test today against South Africa in Perth - the same venue where he made his debut against Sri Lanka in December 1995.

Fittingly, Ponting’s final appearance will equal Steve Waugh’s mark for the most Tests by an Australian.

The former Australian captain said the decision was entirely his own and insisted he hadn’t been pushed out the door by selectors.

Ponting’s wife Rianna and two daughters Emmy and Mattise as well as Australian teammates, coach Mickey Arthur and chief selector John Inverarity were present in the WACA gym as the greatest Australian batsman since Don Bradman made his announcement public.

He held things together in front of the media, but the normally stoic Ponting said he was highly emotional when he talked to his teammates

earlier in the day. “I tried to say a lot but I didn’t get much out,� Ponting said. “They’d never seen me emotional before.�

Australian captain Michael Clarke followed Ponting into the press conference room to announce his 12-man squad for the third Test against South Africa.

Asked what the atmosphere was like in the room, when Ponting addressed his teammates, Clarke wasn’t able to finish his answer before breaking down in tears. “No, I didn’t have the feeling it was coming,� Clarke said. “Ricky spoke to me after the Adelaide Test match, and made his decision over the last little while. “The boys are obviously hurting at the moment. He’s been an amazing player for a long time.�

Clarke then paused for more than 10 seconds and fighting back tears said: “And that’ll do me for today.

Sorry, I can’t answer that.�

Ponting is the highest Australian run-scorer of all time - with 13,336 runs.

It doesn’t matter whether you are talking about a muchloved film, book, play or album, people can understand the quality of the experience simply because you own your view of it so well. You can find yourself having this kind of discussion today and can mean what you say.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23rd - Dec 21st) Investments or savings which haven’t looked so promising, perhaps due to the stagnation in the world’s economy, can actually show signs of revival for you.

Perhaps you have been too cautious about what your assets are worth. Then again, someone can surprise you with a wonderful gift. A mystery admirer may also be keeping a watching brief.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22nd - Jan 20th) Not everyone may have seemed to understand your position this week but this is not a numbers game, it is about quality, and the people that are onside can show it wholesomely today.

You may even discover that someone you thought was distancing you has actually had some genuine issues to deal with and it was nothing to do with you.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21st - Feb 19th) If you want extra responsibility or a higher personal profile, it can happen for you. In fact, something you have worked tirelessly towards achieving over a long period of time could come to fruition now.

Alternatively, you may start to acknowledge that you have many more skills than you have previously credited yourself with.

Take a bow Aquarius.

PISCES (Feb 20th Mar 20th) The exchange of ideas becomes a bigger and bigger theme.

Linking up with people who can help you to learn new expertise or guiding folk through your knowledge are definite possibilities.

If you feel your life is stagnating, this can be the moment to go on the front foot, be bold and not let any inner doubts prevent you from branching out.

Jackson aiming for action against mate

By Kris Shannon

Cedric Jackson

Cedric Jackson has conquered allcomers in this season’s Australian NBL, but tonight he faces his fiercest test - an old friend from college.

With the second-bottom Melbourne Tigers (2-6) travelling to the North Shore to face the second-top Breakers (7-2), most of the intrigue lies with the battle of the point guards.

The Breakers’ Jackson is an early front-runner for MVP after leading his side to another excellent start in the defence of their crown, but he’ll have his work cut out for him

in the form of Tigers import Jonny Flynn.

The Americans both grew up in the Tri-State Area and played each other in college, before forging largely unsuccessful careers in the NBA. They are now set to meet a long way from home, and the prospect of renewing the rivalry whetted Jackson’s appetite.

“I’m excited to play against another tough point guard, an American, a guy that grew up not too far from where I grew up,” he said. “He’s a New York guy and I grew up in New Jersey. I played against him a few times at Cleveland State vs Syracuse, so I know him a little bit.

He’s a good guy. “[We have] basically the same style of play - it’ll be fun.”

It usually is when Jackson has the ball in his hands, but he would be forgiven for feeling a little more tense tonight.

While his own NBA career has so far been curtailed to 12 games for three teams, Flynn is a different matter.

His play at Syracuse was such that he was selected sixth overall by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the 2009 draft, before injuries and indifferent form contributed to his shift down under after only three seasons.

Flynn has been in Australia for less than a month and, considering his pedigree, will undoubtedly have American scouts monitoring his progress with the Tigers.

Jackson, who barely missed the cut with the San Antonio Spurs in the off-season, will again attempt to revive his American dream in next year’s NBA Summer League, but a typically dynamic performance against Flynn could help to propel him back to the big time.

“Most likely [scouts] will be watching,” Jackson said. “But that’s not really in my head, because if you think about all those things you might do things that are unchar-

acteristic. I’ll just stay to the plan and have what we need to do to shut them down.”

Jackson insisted, once he was on the court and the hype had diminished, he would be treating it like “just another game” and his focus would be on more than his former foe.

“I’m just worried about our team defence because we know what they’re capable of. They have really good athletes - it’s not just Jonny Flynn. We definitely can’t overlook them, even though their record doesn’t show their talent. They’re a really good team.”

The Breakers have had few

problems disposing of teams like Melbourne this season, with their old adversaries Perth the only side to consign them to defeat.

The Wildcats handed the Breakers their second loss last season, and Jackson maintained the Breakers would bounce back from the disappointment.

“We responded well through practice. We realised the things that are Breaker basketball we didn’t really carry over. So we wanted to make a better effort of taking a hard stand this week. We’ve been going at each other pretty hard all week getting ready for this weekend.”

Basketballers head to quads Sharks expecting test

By Sam Morton

By Sam Morton

Mid Canterbury’s star dribblers are getting ready to mix it with Canterbury’s best.

Ten teams across three age grades will travel to Christchurch this weekend to compete in the annual Quadrangular fixture involving Canterbury, South Canterbury and North Canterbury.

Mid Canterbury Basketball publicity officer Kimberly Sexton said the province has traditionally done well at the event and always grabs the off-season opportunity with both hands.

The tournament is viewed as a development contest, which helps potential representative players keep their hand in over summer and continue playing basketball competitively.

“Although players aren’t selected for this one, it is a good chance to get out there and have a go,” she said.

“It is always tough competition, but in the past Mid Canterbury has always seemed to do well and everybody is confident going into it.”

A total of 49 teams will play 106 games across three different venues namely Pioneer, Cowles and St Bedes’ courts.

Mid Canterbury will be represented well entering two boys and two girls teams in each of the under 14 and under 12 grades and one team of each sex in the under 16s.

Some of the teams met up at the Oxford Stadium for a practice game on Wednesday night in preparation for the big weekend ahead.

The teams leave early tomorrow morning and most will travel up each day.

Meanwhile, adding to the excitement of the weekend, some of the district’s coaches will have the opportunity to mingle with the Spanish basketball squad’s assistance coach Juan Orenga, who will be in Christchurch to host coaching clinics.

The experienced Orenga’s career highlights include silver in the 2012 Olympics, head coach of the under 19 Spanish team in 2009 and a former Spanish representative having played for his country 128 times, including the 1992 Olympics.

The coaching clinics on Saturday will cover shooting, offence drills and plays, defence and the development of the Spanish high performance system.

Jason Morrison knows his team has to front if they want to achieve a three-peat in the Pritchard Shield senior men’s cricket competition on Saturday.

Tomorrow marks the final fixture in the pre-Christmas competition and the Tech Sharks club captain is relishing the match-up against Coldstream – who have stunned the league contenders with their unbeatable form this season.

Morrison, who has played in a

Slow start for Lee, Wilkinson New Zealand No1 Danny Lee and Manawatu professional Tim Wilkinson have made slow starts to the final stage of qualifying for the PGA Tour in La Quinta, California.

Wilkinson, who finished 59th on the web.com Tour in 2012, opened with a one under par 71 at the PGA West Stadium Course to be in a share of 82nd place after round one.

The left-handed former PGA Tour pro had three birdies and two bogeys as he tries to return to the game’s most famous tour.

Meanwhile Lee, who finished 159th on the PGA Tour money list to lose his card, was one shot further back in a share of 111th place after carding an even par 72 also at the Stadium Course of PGA West.

Lee had an up and down round that included four birdies, two bogeys and a double bogey.

Both players will rue bogeying their last hole of the day to slip further off the pace. They are seven and eight shots back from Steve LeBrun who opened with a superb eight under par 64 to lead the tournament by one.

There are six rounds in the qualifying event with 172 players competing for only 25 places on the PGA Tour in 2013.

“It’s going to be a bloody good game – we’re all looking forward to it and the boys are playing well.

“Our batting is going really well at the moment and the bowlers are putting the ball in the right areas, so we’re in good form going into this game,” he said.

“I am not sure how they branded [Hore’s] ban because I had a 14-week suspension that was halved to seven which I thought was harsh at the time.”

The mood in the All Blacks camp in the aftermath of Hore’s suspension was one of resigned acceptance and relief.

The All Blacks have been willing to accept the 34-year-old was attempting to hook Davies out of the way rather than deliberately strike him from behind.

The judicial officer noted that Hore made contact with an open hand and that his intention was to reach around Davies’ shoulders and try to move him out of the way.

“Andrew has been suspended at the high level but he’s accepted responsibility, he [has] more than 300 first-class games, he’s been a leader and his character over that time period has been exemplary,” said All Black assistant coach Ian Foster.

“This one incident he has accepted, he has fronted up for it and he has been punished.”

Welsh rugby fans voiced their displeasure at the ruling in the comments section of Griffiths’ article, and were upset by the length of the ban and the message it sent.

slow start as she attempts to join the LPGA Tour in 2013.

Bristow, who won on the ALPG Tour in January, has carded a four over par 76 at the Champions Course at the LPGA International in Daytona Beach, Florida, to be in a share of 79th place after round one in the five-round event.

She is currently eight shots back from the trio of leaders Americans Kathleen Ekey and Kim Welch and Thailand’s Moriya Jutanugarn who opened with rounds of four under par 68.

There is a field of 122 players hoping to earn a spot on the 2013 LPGA Tour at the LPGA final qualifying tournament.

The top-20 qualifiers earn category 12 status on the 2013 Tour while players who finish 21st through 45 and ties will earn membership in category 17.

The final stage will cut to the low 70 players and ties after 72 holes.

Those players making the cut will compete in the final round on the Champions Course.

Bristow, who is currently five shots back from the qualifying mark at one under par, has to go low in the next three rounds to make the cut and then advance into the top 20 to secure her place on the LPGA Tour next year.

Evans sits out tour Cadel Evans is again sitting out but his BMC Racing team will field two world champions in a powerful squad for cycling’s Tour Down Under in January.

Australian star Evans is skipping the season-opening UCI WorldTour race in his home country for a second consecutive year as it does not fit with his plans to best prepare to reclaim the Tour de France title he won in 2011.

The first team to name their line-up, BMC Racing announced a seven-man squad for the January 20-27 event headed by current world road champion Philippe Gilbert and including 2008 world champion Alessandro Ballan.

They’re joined by Belgium’s Klaas Lodewyck, Frenchman Amael Moinard and Swiss riders Martin

Kohler, Steve Morabito and Danilo Wyss.

Gilbert returns to the Tour Down Under for the first time since 2008 when he won the King of the Mountains and narrowly missed a top 10 finish.

“I have good memories of this race,” said Gilbert.

“My first time was in 2004 (with FDJeux.com) with a lot of Australians - Baden Cooke, Matt Wilson and Mark Renshaw - so it was a very good experience. I won the young rider jersey, a stage and was fourth overall so it was very good experience for a 22-yearold rider. My winter training and preparation so far has been perfect.

I saw the ‘parcours’ (course) on the internet and it looks good for me so I will go there with some ambition.”

a tough game.

“They all seem to be supporting each other and everyone is doing their bit.

“It’s going to be a pretty even match-up and they seem to be chalking up at least 200 to 220 most times, so we’ll see,” he said.

In other games, Tech Stags will take on Fairfield and Methven will play Lauriston.

But after six rounds in the Pritchard Shield– all eyes will be on Coldstream vs Tech Sharks in tomorrow’s final round - where a champion will be found.

• Speedway action Car smashes and pile-ups will have speedway enthusiasts all revved up as the demolition derby series finale hits Ashburton Speedway on Sunday. It is the last derby of the season and speedway promoter Fiona Moffitt said there will be six contenders vying for $1000 prize money. “It could be anybody’s,” she said. It will be the final meet for the year, which will also feature the midget grand prix and the stock car grand prix. Ms Moffitt warned children to keep an eye out for Santa, who could be making a special appearance.

Ms Moffitt said the meet was in the build up to January 19, where big-time sprint car racers will descend on the Ashburton track.

Races start at 12.30pm.

• Tennis returns After a week out for the Gala Cup, the Mid Canterbury senior men’s tennis returns to the court this weekend. Tomorrow will see top of the table Hampstead take on second placed Dorie, who will no doubt be missing the services of their star player Rhys Cromie.

Hampstead, led by Tom Deeley, will be looking to stretch the lead at the top of the table after a dominant display so far this season racking up 22 points after three rounds. In other fixtures, Methven will go up against Allenton and Tinwald will take on Fairton. Methven currently sit in third place with 13 points with Allenton at the bottom of the ladder with eight. Tinwald, led by Simon Jordan, have 11 points and will be looking to get the victory over the Fairton team, led

by Peter Leonard, who remain in fourth place just one point ahead.

• Manu uncertain Former Blues prop Pauliasi Manu faces an uncertain future in the sport after failing a medical at the Melbourne Rebels. Manu was snapped up by the Rebels after being delisted by Blues coach John Kirwan, a strategic decision which backfired, but now the 24-year-old has returned to Auckland. The Rebels released a statement saying Manu had returned home after a preemployment examination revealed an unspecified medical condition that required further investigation. “I’m gutted I’m not going to play for the Rebels next year, especially after coming over the first time and meeting the team and management.”

• Budget cuts A budget-cutting exercise is on the planning books for the Wairarapa-Bush Rugby Football Union.Chairman Graeme Reisima has acknowledged the organisation is facing a significant cashflow issue. And while confident of getting its house back in order, Reisima admits budget cutting is a “given” considering the seriousness of the situation. “We will have to make cuts in several areas, we don’t have any option.”

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!

Racing fields P23-34 | BREAKERS set for action P22

ABs are not dirty: McCaw “The odd things happens, I understand that because it is a contact sport. If you have got people going out there to deliberately take cheap shots, to beat people up or whatever, that’s not sport and I would hate to be involved in a team that does.

“I don’t know how I would have gone in a footy team in days gone by when it was part of the game ... and I would hate to have men in the team that are like that and I can honestly say that none of our team are like that. There are some hard buggers in there for sure, don’t get me wrong.

“I am not saying we are always 100 per cent squeaky clean but they are rare things when they happen.”

The All Blacks have made three changes to their starting team as they focus on making the last big push for the season against a hugely physical England team that will come at them down route one.

Daniel Carter returns to his beloved No 10 jersey in place of Aaron Cruden, Keven Mealamu starts ahead of the suspended Andrew Hore and Brodie Retallick’s big engine is preferred to the ballcarrying grunt of Luke Romano.

All Blacks team to play England at Twickenham on Sunday, kick-off 3.30am: Israel Dagg, Cory Jane, Conrad Smith, Ma’a Nonu, Julian Savea, Daniel Carter, Aaron Smith, Kieran Read, Richie McCaw, Liam Messam, Sam Whitelock, Brodie Retallick, Owen Franks, Keven Mealamu, Tony Woodcock. Reserves: Dane Coles, Wyatt Crockett, Charlie Faumuina, Luke Romano, Victor Vito, Piri Weepu, Aaron Cruden, Ben Smith.

Black Caps on verge The Black Caps were on the verge of another famous win in Colombo last night, having reduced Sri Lanka to 107 for five at lunch on the fifth day in their chase of 363 for an unlikely victory.

A win would finally allow the New Zealand side to move on from their cherished win over Australia 12 months ago and also serve as motivation to ensure another dreadful losing run doesn’t happen again.

They came into the test match

staring at a record-equalling sixthstraight defeat but at lunch had the prospect of walking away with a morale-boosting win. It has been achieved on the back of a fight - a quality not seen enough this year as well as numerous contributions.

Too often in 2012 players have attained success in isolation. In Colombo, it has been a team effort.

When the Guardian went to print last night, New Zealand needed three more wickets to win.

Swim star: Grace Sommerville has been preparing well for the trans-Tasman open water challenge this weekend and next week in Sydney.

Grace bridges gap with Aussies

By Sam Morton Grace Sommerville will compete against her Aussie rivals on the open water before joining them in an extensive trans-tasman performance camp next week.

Sommerville and her coach Carl Gordon fly to Sydney today, where the 16-year-old swimmer will prepare to go up against Australia in a 5km and 10km race – rarely seen this side of the ditch.

Following the trans-Tasman challenge, Sommerville will enter the same room as the Australians to mingle and help strengthen their squad – in a mutually beneficial agreement.

Gordon was upbeat about the opportunity and said the trip was

a chance for Sommerville to gain more experience to bridge the gap on European dominance.

With New Zealand and Australia being geographically isolated to the rest of the world, it was important for both countries to stick together and help strengthen one another, he said.

“When you look at some of the major championships, it was the European teams that dominated and for us to succeed, we need to work with our close neighbours and help spur each other on.

“The Australians realise they are also geographically isolated and this is a great opportunity to put the swords away and work with each other to develop,” Gordon said.

For Sommerville, it has been a

hard couple of months and the season is looming to be one of her most demanding yet, after being named in the Youth Olympics in Australia in January.

She has balanced studying for her exams with her tireless training schedule in Ashburton at the community pool.

It is no secret Sommerville has been a standout in the pool over recent years and according to her coach, she has been working hard to achieve her goals with a distant eye on the Rio Olympics.

Earlier this year she narrowly missed out on a placing at the junior PAN Pacific championships, but Gordon believes he has seen enough to predict bigger things for his star charge.

“To get more experience as an

athlete you just have to go overseas and take the opportunities,” Gordon said.

“It’s about getting out there, raising the bar and constantly working towards her goals and so far, she’s on the right track. She is definitely putting in the work.”

Following the training camp, Sommerville will return to New Zealand to compete in the open water championships in an attempt to qualify for the world championships next year.

And the event schedule doesn’t stop there.

“She will also have the national age grade and open course championships in the pool too, and we may even head over for a tilt at the Australian Open water champs as well,” Gordon said.

Send your caption to steve.d@theguardian.co.nz Best of the week will be published in Saturday’s Guardian Today’s answers: Mystery person: Dean Richards turned out 48 times in an England rugby jersey, and six times for the British & Irish Lions. He was also at the centre of ‘Bloodgate’, and was handed a three year suspension from coaching.

Quote: PG Wodehouse Trivia question: Mick Heald

The All Blacks’ reputation has taken a battering in recent weeks, but to skipper Richie McCaw it’s very much background noise.

He knows his side are not dirty, that the Andrew Hore and Adam Thomson incidents were not malicious, pre-meditated cheap shots because, says the 115-cap veteran, that is simply not the All Black way.

Certainly not the way of the side he captains.

The hysterical reactions to Hore’s clumsy challenge on Bradley Davies, which earned the hooker an eight week ban reduced to five, has neither perplexed nor outraged McCaw. The video evidence may not have looked good, Davies being left unconscious didn’t look good but the senior All Blacks and management are all satisfied that Hore was trying to cleanout, or more accurately hook the Welsh lock out of the way of the impending ruck.

Hore says he was aiming for the shoulders, got the timing wrong, got the execution wrong and ended up clubbing Davies around the chops.

It was clumsy and ill-advised, but not, as the judicial officer was happy to accept, a closed fist intentional strike to the head.

“I think if you ask all of the boys and certainly myself, I don’t think that has got any place in rugby or in sport; you don’t play the game for that sort of stuff,” says McCaw on why it is important to him that he’s not perceived to be captain of a dirty team.
