Shotgun intruders still at large

By Sam Morton Police have confirmed a double barrelled shotgun was used in the Hinds home invasion on Tuesday night – but their investigation is proving to be a challenge.

Despite identifying the weapon held by one of the three men in the armed confrontation, information has been scarce and police are urging the public to come forward with

any further information to help them nab the culprits.

Since the Ashburton Police appealed for information yesterday, a number of people have contacted police with possible identification of the offenders, but police say the details have not led to any positive leads as yet.

Detective Sergeant Jennifer Hooke, of Ashburton CIB, said the young woman, who was confronted by the three men at her McDougalls

Road house late at night – was still being comforted by friends. “This was an extremely distressing confrontation and especially frightening for a young woman who was alone in a house that she had just moved into,” DS Hooke said.

“Fortunately, she has a good support network around her to help her through this difficult time.”

Ms Hooke, who is leading the investigation, told the Guardian she is still piecing together exactly

what happened, but focus is being put on locating the previous occupant of the house – believed to be the person the three men were looking for.

She said a number of items of interest had been located at a forensic scene examination on Wednesday, but was reluctant to reveal any of the items.

“Establishing the facts in this incident may take some time – the fact that it occurred at night, in a

remote location and well away from neighbouring properties makes it a challenge,” Ms Hooke said.

No sightings of the vehicle, believed to be idling outside the property during the invasion, had been reported, but Ms Hooke remained hopeful information would come forward.

She said police had not yet confirmed if they were looking for a fourth man, but pointed out it was an assumption – given a car was

idling outside the house during the incident. Ms Hooke is keen to hear from anyone with information about possible offenders and said she was anxious to hear from anyone who may have seen any vehicles or suspicious activity in the vicinity of McDougalls Road on Tuesday night. *Can you help? - contact the Ashburton Police on 307-8405 or anonymously phone Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

Methven turns out to welcome superstar Rocky

By Susan Sandys More than 100 people turned out to Methven’s Blue Pub last night to welcome superstar boulder Rocky to his new home.

The 15 tonne hunk of volcanic basalt was earlier in the day craned out of the ruins of a Port Hills house, and will be transported to Mt Hutt some time within the next few days.

The Rocky story began at 12.51pm on February 22, 2011, when a deadly 6.3 magnitude earthquake dislodged the boulder and saw it smash its way into the home of Phil Johnson and his family.

Mr Johnson, who now lives in Queenstown, was there yesterday to see his former home partially demolished, and Rocky extracted.

It was the end of an emotional journey after he was the one who gave the rock which destroyed his house an identity and put it up for auction on TradeMe. From underneath Rocky he was able to retrieve a relatively undamaged large painting which was a family favourite, and which he had searched for after the earthquakes but had been able to find.

Rocky’s owners, Mt Hutt Ski Area, which paid $50,000 for the boulder, organised the transportation of Rocky to Methven after

Sicon, coincidentally headed by Dave Wilson who is the former Mt Hutt manager who bought Rocky in the first place, demolished the home and craned him out.

Mt Hutt Ski Area manager James McKenzie’s day began at 5am; he arrived on site at the house by 8am. He said last night the threehour extraction operation had gone according to plan, except a narrow driveway had necessitated the use of a digger to manoeuvre the Grant Hood Contracting truck prior to Rocky being placed on it.

Mr McKenzie won a bet with Mr Wilson on Rocky’s weight, which was confirmed at 15 tonnes.

Rocky was taken to sites around Christchurch for people to see by Rock FM roadies, before arriving at the Blue about 5.30pm, where $1 from every jug sold went to the Red Cross earthquake appeal.

Among people who turned out in Methven last night to see Rocky was the McGinity family. Amanda who was there with husband Brett and their four children said it was exciting to see the boulder in Methven.

“We were watching it on the news tonight, so we decided we would bring the kids down and have a look,” Mrs McGinity said.

Rocky will be officially unveiled on Mt Hutt at the ski area’s 40th anniversary celebrations on August 3 and 4.

Money, farms change hands, stock move - it’s Gypsy Day

Dairy herds hit the road ahead of Gypsy Day.

Photo tetsuro mitomo 300513-tm-040

Lawyers, real estate agents and cockies in the district will today be rounding out a frantic week, finalising farm sales in line with Gypsy Day. The day, traditionally marked on June 1, is more than moving stock and family relocations – it’s a day that has pockets jangling and rural related businesses smiling.

Marking the end of the financial year, it is expected more than $200 million will change hands reflecting the dozens of farm sales throughout Mid Canterbury.

PGG Wrightson rural sales man-

ager Robin Ford, of Ashburton, said farm sales for the year had been on par with previous years.

“We’re not talking large numbers, very few sales indeed – but we’re talking substantial money.

“A dairy farm can sell from anything between $10m and $20m on average, so it is certainly a fair sum of money changing hands at some point in the next week – if it hasn’t already,” Mr Ford said.

Mr Ford told the Guardian some sellers or buyers had chosen to complete the transaction earlier this month, but most would wait until after Queen’s Birthday weekend – likely to be June 4.

He has already signed off several sales and believes people are

better at organising themselves this year – ensuring the paperwork is completed before the long weekend.

“I think what we’ll see is a Gypsy long weekend, rather than a Gypsy Day, as people will make the most of the long break to get things sorted.

“It will be quite a frantic rush in the next few days, I am sure.

“It’s going to be a busy week and with Fonterra’s announcement this week, it’s certainly not a bad start to the new financial year,” Mr Ford said.

Transport companies in the district are also under the pump, with one company fully booked until June 12.

Ryal Bush Transport manager Colin Rotch said the business had 18 trucks working to move stock – ranging throughout Canterbury and across New Zealand.

“It’s a very busy time mate, always got something on and the drivers are full-on,” Mr Rotch said.

“We have had quite a few jobs relating to Gypsy Day, but the majority of them are farmers sending their stock away for grazing.

“Of course, there will be some who will need us to bring the stock back, so it’s going to be pretty steady for a number of weeks yet,” he said.

The last time Prime Minister John Key visited Ashburton College, its pupils left such a marked impression he could not turn down the opportunity to return.

In fact, Rangitata MP Jo Goodhew told an auditorium full of the college’s year 12 and 13 pupils yesterday that Mr Key felt 2011’s senior pupils asked some of the most interesting questions out of the hundreds of schools he has visited.

It may have been a whirlwind visit to Ashburton yesterday, but out of the hour-long visit to Ashburton College, Mr Key took 30 minutes of that time to field questions from pupils, even going overtime despite running late for his next appointment in Timaru.

Among the questions about his career and experiences, the pupils fired well-informed questions at the Prime Minister, some asking about social welfare, driver’s licensing laws, the contentious future of the Christ Church Cathedral and Wednesday’s school closures and mergers in Christchurch.

“I’m a CYF’s (Child Youth and Family) child and am SLD (specific learning disabilities), when I get cut off what benefits can I get?” one pupil asked.

Mr Key said he could not give a direct answer, but told the pupil they would be eligible for a student loan and probably the student allowance. But if she wanted to write a letter he said he could give a more precise answer.

Last year, another pupil said she was in a serious road accident and if she was aware of the advantages of defensive driving, she may not have been involved.

“Would you be open to the idea to make defensive driving a mandatory course to make New Zealand roads safer?” she put to Mr Key. He said it was a ”possibility” to make defensive driving mandatory, but it came with financial barriers and access issues for drivers in rural areas.

Another pupil asked Mr Key why he closed schools in Christchurch, and if there would be any benefits to education in the city.

Mr Key said he “felt for the families involved” but the Government could not ignore statistics that showed there were 5000 fewer pupils in the city following the earthquake.

“If you go back and ask those parents in five years time is that new $200 million school with state of art technology best for your child, I bet those parents would say yes,” he said.

“Not everything’s perfect but you know there’s lots that’s good I think,” he said, reflecting on his five years as leader.

Second bridge route views aired

By Sue Newman Ashburton District Councillors spent most of yesterday being told why the route for a second bridge over the Ashburton River was a bad choice.

As the council began its two day hearings on its annual plan, yesterday morning was almost exclusively taken up with listening to submissions on the second river bridge and Tinwald traffic lights.

To a person the submitters wanted work stopped on the bridge project, they wanted council to revisit all options and they wanted a ring road to be moved to the top of the list.

There were too many negatives, they

said to using Bridge Street, Chalmers Avenue and a new road to the East of Tinwald; opting for an eastern rural ring road which would affect fewer people.

Alisdair Urquhart said the council had made its decision on the bridge route based on incorrect information.

The route chosen would create huge social problems and it would carve the town in two, he said.

The second bridge will only be funded 56 per cent by the New Zealand Transport Agency, with the rest of the money having to be supplied by the council but Mr Urquhart said the agency should provide all of the funding because the bridge was solving a State Highway problem.

“This is about looking to the future.

Yes, it’s more expensive to build a ring road but long term it’s the best option. NZTA is talking about a ring road in 25 years, why not start now, it’s better to be ahead. It’s not too late for the council to pull the pin on their option,” Mr Urquhart said.

The council might be getting just 56 per cent subsidy for the second bridge project but if it opted for a ring road it would get nothing from NZTA. In 25 years that might be different, councillor Robin Kilworth told him.

The research was flawed, the data was flawed and the final route chosen was flawed the submitters said. They wanted the council route scrapped and further investigation carried out

on an eastern ring road. The cost of a ring road would be about $70 million, the work would be unsubsidised and it could end up costing the council between $6 and $7 million a year, equating to a 20 to 30 per cent rate rise, councillor Neill Brown said.

Submissions were also heard on the need to have traffic lights installed in Tinwald and on possible improvements to road safety on Archibald Street.

Traffic lights, Ann Craig said, should be installed not at the NZTAs preferred site, Lagmhor Road and the state highway, but at a T-intersection such as Grahams, Johnstone or Willkin Street.

If the cycle lane was relocated to

the grassed area on the west side of the state highway, the central median strip could be increased in size, making using it a less hazardous exercise, Mrs Craig said.

Both the two traffic lanes and the median are narrower than state highway recommendations but this could be improved if the cycle lanes were moved.

By creating a proper turning lane the need for lights would not disappear but traffic flows along the length of Archibald would be greatly improved, Dave Saunders said.

“If the council really wants to know the best solutions they should talk to the locals. They know a lot of little things that don’t cost a lot of money.”

Doing dinner on a grand scale

By Sue Newman It would be fair to say chef Paul Congdon is counting potatoes in his sleep.

He’s leading the Hotel Ashburton team that’s charged with the task of preparing food for more than 1400 people for the two-day Harness Jewels racing carnival.

As major sponsor of the event, the Ashburton Trust will be catering for diners in the three on-course marquees and that means raw ingredients in massive amounts has been delivered to the Hotel Ashburton’s kitchen.

His order sheet is mind boggling – 140kg of beef, the same of ham, 200kg of potatoes, prawns by the bucket. Storage is at a premium.

His pastry chefs have probably the most demanding job, providing diners with a range of individual desserts.

Mr Congdon knows that by the time they’ve turned out around 1000 each of mud cakes and lemon meringue pies they won’t be wanting to eat pudding for a while All holidays and leave have been cancelled for staff and it’s a case of all hands on deck as food for the big day is prepared, Mr Congdon said.

And the menu is mouthwatering – a massive seafood buffet, a large meat and salad selection and a big range of desserts. The numbers are equivalent to three major functions at the hotel, but at the end of the day food is just food, he said.

When it comes to staffing the continuous buffet staff call in friends, family and at least one community fundraising group to help get the job done on the day.

“This provides a lot of opportunities. It’s the first time I’ve been anywhere where something like this is staffed by groups of volunteers.”

While diners see what they expect to see, food, beautifully prepared, most will have little idea of the work that goes on behind the scenes to ensure food service is first rate, Mr

PHOTO GALLERY Congdon said.

“I started ordering last week, stuff’s being delivered now and our sous chefs started preparing food yesterday.”

With the right planning in place, and Mr Congdon’s sure he’s got that, the meal service will be a seamless exercise on the day. There shouldn’t be any last minute panic.

“At the end of the day, it’s just food, it’s what we do, and there is a certain adrenalin to working with food and that’s addictive. There’s nothing better than going back and looking at what you’ve just done.”

His race day will start early – 5.30am and he’ll be there well into the night. Not only will staff be serving mountains of food at the racecourse, they’re also looking at a string of big nights in the restaurant too.

Getting the quantities right is key and that’s done with a mixture of science and gut feeling, he said.

Irish born Mr Congdon has been in New Zealand for 12 years, and in Ashburton for only a few months.

CRUMB

– John Key at college – Cows on the move – And so many more!

by David Fletcher

By Jonathan Leask What do a couple of film students do when they get bored?

They make their own travel show.

Scotty Bamford and Daniel Pannett were bored and wanting something to do on the weekend.

What transpired was an off-the-cuff travel show which will now air on Guardianonline.

“We had just graduated from tech and were keen to make stuff,” Bamford said.

“The idea really spawned after Dan created a travel show as one of his projects. [Kiwi Traveller] is a shortened crazier hybrid, with a madman at the helm.

“We have watched some pretty terrible travel shows in our time, they were too politically correct and boring.

So we thought why not give it a crack.

New Zealand is awesome so let’s make an awesome show and do a few crazy things, but mainly make people laugh.”

After shooting the travel show in Akaroa for their course, Bamford and Pannett were inspired.

“We had such a great time shooting it so we thought ‘why not make more of them, but let’s make it funny’,” Pannett said.

Hailing from Hurunui Bamford is the frontman and Methven local Pannett is behind the camera.

Originally they got people to send through ideas for what kind of things they would like to see via Facebook, but Bamford admitted that idea lost traction when the “ideas got out of hand and everyone wanted to see me naked”.

They initially made an episode in Kaikoura and then brought in a “third wheel” in Ben Irwin of Methven for the second episode in Hanmer, before teaming up with Guardianonline.co.nz.

“In the series we’ll head to Rakaia, have a day up Mt Hutt, hit up Ashburton and all the other hot spots as well as hit up a few of the major events,” Bamford said.

“I would say a two-part adventure activity episode with some extreme stuff and could even do a scenery special.

There are a lot of possibilities.”

It’s a relaxed and jovial look at what the district has to offer that the Kiwi

Traveller team hopes has something for everybody.

Gypsy Day tradition alive and well

By Sam Morton There may be fewer cows on Mid Canterbury roads this year, but rest assured, Gypsy Day is still in full swing.

Every year on June 1, the district plays host to the traditional occasion – a day where many families or individuals pack up their things and move to their next challenge – marking the end of the financial year.

For the majority of rural folk, the

week leading up to and following Gypsy Day, is hectic, but annually, the shift runs like clockwork and farms welcome new workers and stock from right across the board.

Some residents in the district suggest the day has become a thing of the past, but according to Mid Canterbury Federated Farmers, the tradition is alive and well.

Dairy co-vice chairperson Jeremy Casey believes more farmers are opting to use transport

companies for the transition – but pointed out it depended on individual situations.

“It all depends on the economic situation, there could well be less farm workers moving as they have secure employment and they are happy in their job,” he said.

“For others, they may have to move on to another job or another farm, as the situation has changed at their current place and that’s the only choice they have left.

“They’re either going to be going up the ladder or down the ladder

. . . it’s different situations for different people,” Mr Casey said.

Mr Casey acknowledged Gypsy Day was tough on the district’s school children, but added the upheaval could also lead to positive futures for both them and their family.

While some left Mid Canterbury altogether, others tried to find work within the district – with the area being sought after by residents wanting to establish themselves in the sector.

“I suppose the good thing about

Mid Canterbury is there is a fair amount of choice, so if you are successful in dairying, you can progress within the region and not have to leave,” Mr Casey said.

“If you can do that, then that’s a big achievement.”

Mr Casey said farmers were choosing to use trucking services to transport their stock – rather than walking them on the country roads, which, in the past, has often been a common sight for motorists and fellow residents.

He said a number of safety fac-

tors played a part in that decision too. “Generally, if the destination is less than 20kms, you will probably find the cows are walked as it saves a lot of hassle and a lot of money.

“But anything over that, it is likely the trucks will be called in,” he said.

Gypsy Day is officially tomorrow (Saturday) – but it is likely farm workers, sharemilkers, contract milkers and farm owners are shifting well before then to ensure a smooth move.

Dairy farmer looks forward to a well earned holiday

By Sam Morton Hinds dairy farmer Martin Furrer is looking forward to a holiday after a long year working on the dairy farm.

Just hours after sending his stock to their wintering run-off in Ruapuna, Martin is all smiles with his staff, as they all pitch in to hose down the cowsheds.

Engineer check deadline here Owners of Ashburton buildings that are potentially earthquake prone, have just one day to have an engineer’s initial evaluation carried out on those buildings.

The Ashburton District Council last year wrote to building owners requesting these reports.

Complying with the request was not an option but with just 24 hours to run only half of those owners have responded, said council building services manager Michael Wong.

This initial evaluation determines whether or not the building is in fact earthquake prone.

Some building owners had been granted extensions of time because of difficulties securing an engineer Mr Wong said, but there were many who had made no contact with the council While many owners had taken their responsibilities seriously and acted in a positive and cooperative manner, as many had not, Mr Wong said.

He’s urging the tardy owners

to contact the council.

“With the deadline for undertaking the evaluations now past, the council will engage engineers to evaluate buildings at the owners’ expense if evaluations are not provided and no contact has been made with the council,” he said.

Any building owners who are unclear of the requirements for earthquake prone buildings are encouraged to contact the council’s building services team, he said.

LEFT: Farm workers (from left) Chrystal Johnson Simon Thomas and Ryal Bush stock drivers Matthew Gibson and Brent Miller, in truck, work to shift stock from Martin Furrer’s farm this week.

The 1000 plus cows won’t return for six weeks, giving Martin and his family and staff the perfect break – downtime Martin refers to as “well needed”.

But while his stock are on the move from the Boundary Road farm, Martin won’t be moving and he has no desire to either.

“We love it here – we have been here for about eight years now and we enjoy this place,” he said.

“Gypsy Day is becoming a thing of the past I think, certainly not too many people moving nowadays – I think people try and stay where they are and try and make a go of things.”

Mr Furrer, a Switzerland native,

said he decided to use transport trucks following a wet May – to speed up the process.

“Normally we do walk the cows, but this year it is just far too wet.

We have had buckets of the stuff coming down, which is not ideal for dairy farmers this time of year,” he said.

“It’s about taking some pressure off the home farm as well.

It’s only six weeks, then they are all back here again and we’re into it.”

Every year, dairy farmers move their stock to wintering paddocks for four to six weeks, which coincidentally occurs at the same time as Gypsy Day.

• Harness Jewels - Round 2 The final three Harness Jewels races are spread out among a 10-race day at the Ashburton Raceway. Racing gets under way at 11.20am, $5 entry.

Local musicians head Kids wanted for show’s cast south for Gold Guitars

By Sam Morton Several Mid Canterbury musicians are vying for prestigious honours at the Gold Guitar Awards – already in full voice in Gore.

X Factor sensation Liam Kennedy-Clark and Tamworth bound Amelia James will be among the locals hoping to impress the judges at the pinna-

cle event of country music.

Other locals to take the stage include Ashburton’s Lanae Hill and Mitchell Lowe, of Hinds, who will be performing a duo with James.

Staveley’s Cameron Luxton, who made it to the top 60 of X Factor, will perform at the event – but will not be competing in any categories.

The Gold Guitar Awards will wrap up on Sunday.

Mid Canterbury Children’s Theatre is looking for kids aged seven to 17 for its upcoming production Aladdin Jnr. Secretary Karen Wilson said an audition workshop would be held on July 14, and prior to that 60 children needed to be on board to fill roles. Places were filling up, but there were still some left.

The first 60 to respond were guaranteed parts in the show, and at the audition workshop participants would be cast in their various roles.

“Children’s Theatre philosophy is about introducing musical theatre to children, it is known more as a

grass roots musical theatre group,” Mrs Wilson said.

“The kids love it, once they get on the big stage and see the set and get their costumes on their performance lifts 500 percent, especially the newbies.”

Rehearsals would be held throughout Term 3 and the show would stage in the middle weekend of the school holidays, from October 4 to 6.

The director is Claire Bubb, musical director is Angie Creswell and choreographer is Amber Bailey.

Mrs Wilson invited parents who were interested in registering their children to phone her, on 302-6882.

Jewels Ashburton’s biggest racing event H

orse racing enthusiasts from far and wide are getting their glad rags on for the biggest weekend in Ashburton racing for two years.

The Ashburton Trust Harness Jewels is the richest harness racing meeting in the country and every trainer, owner and driver wants to get their hands on the extraordinary prize money.

While most harness races in rural towns have stakes of $5000, and around $20,000 for a good race, the Jewels meeting

OUR VIEW will have $100,000 to $150,000 on the line in each and every race on Saturday and Sunday.

Ashburton takes turns with Cambridge in the North Island to host the Jewels as we have the fastest track in the country.

Trainers and punters will not only be hoping for big pay-outs but also record times.

All in all, $1.6m will change hands in stakes and hundreds of thousands of dollars will be bet

on horses, on and off the track.

The Ashburton Harness Racing Club will get a slice of the money being bet from TABs and lounges around New Zealand, so the Jewels day will be a red-letter day for its treasurer.

Just as importantly though, will be the economic impact on the town, the exposure around the country and the wonderful opportunity for locals to let their hair down and go racing.

Coen Lammers editor

The Boxing Day racing meeting is traditionally the biggest day in Ashburton racing as it coincides with Christmas and the holidays but the allure, the quality of the horses and the national

exposure of the Jewels races is in a whole different category.

Hospitality businesses around town will be rubbing their hands as punters and racing industry people will flock to Ashburton with pockets full of cash. Much of it will be spent on the two race days, but hundreds of thousands of dollars will go into the tills of local hotels, motels, restaurants and other local businesses.

around 5000 to 6000 spectators compared to the usual few hundred who make their way to Racecourse Road, so the atmosphere will be unlike other days on the Ashburton race track.

The future of the Jewels and whether Ashburton will again host the carnival in 2015 can never be guaranteed as the racing industry constantly reviews other lucrative options, so if you like your horses and a good day out make sure you get down to the track tomorrow.

accessories could also see an increase in trade from locals looking for new outfits and outof-towners seeking some lastminute purchases.

As in 2012, Ashburton will be dressed to the max tomorrow to enjoy a few drinks, excellent food and of course the top-class racing.

The weather forecast for Saturday looks good so we may not even need to rug up too much or freeze with a cold drink in hand.

Rail crossing accident Fortunately the train and truck drivers involved in the rail crossing crash at Northpark Road came out without serious injury,or even a worse result.

For anyone who travels SH1 around 8am to 9am the sun is certainly a major safety risk.

I travel daily from Rakaia to Ashburton College with a bus full of school pupils and it is necessary to pull over several times in order to pick pupils up.

Getting back onto the highway is an area of real concentration as the sun is reflected in all the rear vision mirrors.

It is worse on a sunny day after rain.

What causes me serious concern is the absence of responsibility around a stationary bus with school signs displayed and hazzard lights flashing.

Traffic is extremely heavy at this time of day with large volumes of truck and trailer units.

Perhaps one in a hundred might slow down when passing.

Compounding the situation are

vehicles overtaking at speed and close to the bus even when they have an opportunity to cross into the outer lane to pass.

Around 20 years ago an Ashburton police officer followed the bus in an unmarked car observing the overtaking issues.

He commented that 80 per cent of the traffic was ignoring the road code law regarding passing stationary school buses.

When asked what he was going to do about it the response was “it is pretty difficult to do”.

My answer to him was “you need to have the will to do it and prosecute a few people”, however this remark was obviously lost in passing.

Although the recent accident may well end in a prosecution I have sympathy for the truck driver.

I believe that the sun was probably a major factor.

The police and courts are fairly wise after an event, I mention that police cars also fail to observe the speed limits around school buses.

Parents may feel on occasions that the discipline on our bus is quite strict,

I make no apology for this as safety of all who travel with me, as well as my own, is very important.

I would suggest that unmarked police cars be utilised on SH1, everyone does what is right when they see a marked car.

Unsafe buildings The Christchurch City Council knew of facade detachments on Colombo Street from the first earthquake but did not fence off thos e buildings resulting in deaths when the big earthquake hit - and now some residents are angry and asking for compensation or at the very least an apology for their loss or injuries.

I find our own council’s lack of action incredulous following the example of what has happened in Christchurch.

We now have many weak buildings in our CBD and should that big earthquake come, council staff will have blood on their hands.

Saying that they don’t have powers to make landlords take these buildings down is not good

enough.

Every day could be THAT day the one Christchurch didn’t see coming - the one in which people needlessly died - the one I am very much afraid will be repeated here.

Years on and we are going nowhere fast. I couldn’t sleep at night if I was a council employee paid to keep our residents safe when operating around commercial buildings.

Shame on the council for the lack of progress - I am sure the Christchurch City Council has learnt lessons the hard way ... just a pity it looks likely it will take another tragedy in order for our council to replicate the lesson.

1000-day anniversary of Chch quake Today marks 1000 days since the first devastating earthquake hit Christchurch.

The magnitude 7.1 earthquake on September 4, 2010 caused widespread damage to the city but was soon overshadowed by the deadly magnitude 6.3 quake on February 22 the following year.

Earthquake Recovery Minister Gerry Brownlee said today would be a special one for Cantabrians as it marked 1000 days since the first quake.

“To mark the milestone I’d like to thank all those who have helped in whatever capacity, from voluntary to official, in respond-

ing to the earthquakes and helping shape the recovery that is so clearly under way,” he said.

Mr Brownlee said rebuilding Christchurch was among the Government’s priorities. He listed 100 responses since the first earthquake, and said a huge amount would be done over the next 1000 days.

“But now is a good time to reflect on just how far we’ve come, some tragic losses, and to acknowledge how much energy and passion thousands of people have put into the recovery.”

Mr Brownlee said major inroads had been made in buying up central Christchurch land for

new projects, with agreements reached for almost two thirds of the land area for priority projects.

The Crown is buying land to implement the Christchurch Central Recovery Plan, which aims to revitalise the central city.

Mr Brownlee said 63 per cent of the total designated land area for the plan’s priority projects - the Convention Centre Precinct, the East Frame, the Bus Interchange, the Justice and Emergency Services Precinct, and the Metro Sport Facility now had purchase agreements in place.

Across all projects, agreements were in place for 43.4 per cent of

all land at a cost of $231.6 million.

Mr Brownlee said the figures showed the programme was moving ahead at a very good pace.

“To build these new projects we first need to purchase the necessary land, complete any demolition that are required, and then do the physical building. We are already seeing this building work take place on the early stages of the Avon River Precinct.”

The Crown has not had to use its compulsory acquisition powers to date, and two independent valuers had been providing advice to the Crown in the negotiations.

Out-of-zone schools to get extra funding Schools that offer special programmes to out-of-zone students will now be entitled to more funding.

Education Minister Hekia Parata said the move would urgently address capacity issues in places such as Auckland and Christchurch, where growth pressures meant there was high demand for special programmes.

Schools with out-of-zone children in selected programmes would now be able to access roll growth funding from the Ministry of Education.

Ms Parata said the ministry had encouraged the establishment of special programmes which met the needs of priority groups including Maori, Pasifika and children with special needs - and the

change would urgently address capacity issues in some schools.

“This is good news for communities that are set to grow,” Ms Parata said.

“Demand for special programmes will continue to grow over time, particularly in the ethnically diverse areas of Auckland.”

Ms Parata said eligibility criteria would apply and not all spe-

cial programmes would generate funding for additional classrooms.

She said students who lived in a school’s home zone would still be given priority for entry into special programmes ahead of out-of-zone students.

The Ministry of Education would review the policy’s impact on rolls and costs in three years time.

The cartoonist who penned two controversial cartoons won’t apologise for them and says they weren’t racist because they depict a mix of ethnicities.

Race Relations Commissioner Dame Susan Devoy has said the cartoons by Al Nisbet were offensive, but did not meet the threshold of being racist under the Human Rights Act. Dame Susan said she would speak with the newspaper editors involved, but did not expect they would apologise for running the images.

The editors of the two South Island papers who ran the cartoons both said they could see why people had been offended by the images, but stopped short of apologising for allowing them to run.

One of the drawings published in the Marlborough Express appeared to show two brownskinned adults in school uniforms taking advantage of the Breakfast in Schools programme to save money for cigarettes, alcohol and pokies.

The other cartoon, printed in The Press showed a mixed Maori/Pakeha family discussing how great the free breakfast programme would be to help them ease their poverty, while sitting in front of lottery tickets, cigarettes and empty beer cans.

Both cartoons had captions spoken by overweight, brown-skinned men.

Al Nisbet said people were being too precious over the cartoons.

He denied he targeted only Pacific Island or Maori people, and pointed out white people were also depicted in the cartoons.

“I was careful about making sure there was a mix in there.”

The cartoon was attacking “bludgers”, he said.

“I’m not talking about the average poverty people. I’m talking about the ones who say they’re poverty stricken, but they’re on welfare getting handouts - they have their tv and they have their fancy cellphones and they have their alcohol and they have their pokies and they have their smokes.”

Marlborough Express editor Steve Mason said he had received “a couple of dozen” complaints about the cartoon. But there had also been some calls in support of it, he said.

“The fact that I’m getting calls saying they support what we did suggests that reflects quite a wide depth of opinion out there.”

He could understand why some

people were offended however, because of the “well-rounded” stereotypes used in the cartoon.

Mr Mason said he would speak with people offended by the cartoon, but would not commit to apologising to anyone.

“That will depend on where that discussion goes.”

The Press editor Joanna Norris said she understood why people had taken offence to the cartoon, but she would also not apologise for running the picture.

“There’s no reason for The Press to apologise for running a piece of content that’s offended some people.”

She said there was a “wide range” of ethnicities in the cartoon and it expressed an important examination of the policy that was aiming to tackle the needs of children living in poverty.

The paper had received four complaints about the cartoon, she said.

Child advocate group Every Child Counts welcomed Dame Susan’s comments that the cartoons were “offensive and stigmatising”.

“The cartoon highlights some of the ill-informed opinions New Zealanders have about the issues around poverty,” manager Deborah Morris-Travers said.

The cartoon was slammed as racist on Twitter, with some calling for an apology from the newspaper.

Comedian Ben Hurley described the cartoon as “racist in a hurry”.

Green MP Catherine Delahunty tweeted “Thanks Marlborough Express 4 reinforcing racist, anti poor people and larger people meme - we really needed that”.

The Stuff.co.nz website polled 8563 people. Nearly 74 per cent were not offended by the cartoons, and just over 26 per cent of people were offended.

Labour Ethnic Affairs spokesman and former Race Relations Conciliator Rajen Prasad said the cartoons clearly depicted the parents of the children who take up the food in schools scheme as mainly brown, irresponsible and overweight.

“It has hugely racist undertones.”

If Mr Nisbet wanted to make the point that in New Zealand everyone should be able to feed their children because of the welfare state, he could have approached that quite differently, Mr Prasad said.

“He didn’t do that - either accidentally or deliberately he maligned these people.

“He gave people licence to discriminate and that’s everyday racism, and that’s what’s objectionable about this.”

It’s a family affair

By Catherine Pattison When Georgie Evans says this weekend’s Otago Motorcycle Club’s Brass Monkey Rally is a “whole family affair” she is speaking literally.

Her father, Stu Evans, is the site manager and as part of the organising committee headed to the Idaburn Dam in Oturehua last night on his BMW F800GS. Her mother Adele, took Georgie (21) and sister Louise (19) by car yesterday morning.

And not to be left out, oldest sister Charlotte (24) will head over from Queenstown to help her mum with the secretarial side of hosting about 1500 motorcyclists for the two-day event. The two youngest Evans sisters will man the soup tent and keep the organisers fed.

Mr Evans, who has made the Oturehua trip for the past 26 years, said it was “nice to have the help” from his wife and daughters and good to see them all involved in the same club.

Georgie has been to about seven Brass Monkey Rallies, three of which she travelled to on the back of her father’s motorbike, starting when she was 12. She still remembers the extreme cold at her first rally, which has a reputation for recording sub-zero temperatures.

“It was snowing and there was a huge hoar frost as well,” she said.

Organising committee member John Willems said as weather forecasts go “Saturday doesn’t look too bad” this year, although the traditional bonfire that night should keep the cold at bay.

About 528 riders had pre-entered but that figure could usually be nearly trebled to find the number of motorcyclists who would turn up to enjoy the bands, events and displays, Mr Willems said.

Central Otago police are advising motorcyclists attending the rally to exercise caution while travelling on State Highway 85 between Alexandra and Palmerston and the Ida Valley-Omakau Rd due to road grit which was laid because of the cold weather this week.

College signs up to German initiative

By Myles Hume Prime Minister John Key was on hand to sign off a momentous occasion for Ashburton College’s German language department yesterday.

On an hour-long whistle stop visit to Mid Canterbury, Mr Key joined German ambassador Anne-Marie Schleich, Rangitata MP Jo Goodhew and other dignitaries to sign a Memorandum of Understanding between the

college and the German Foreign Ministry’s Goethe Institut, as part of a world-wide school initiative to form a strong bond with Germany and the language.

The college is the fourth New Zealand school and first South Island school to join the prestigious initiative.

It now means two senior college pupils will go on a three week winter exchange to Germany, and it would bolster the resources available for teaching German at college.

Speaking afterwards, Mr Key said it was “a huge occasion” for Mid Canterbury’s biggest school, and it would further strengthen the bond with the European country.

Ashburton College principal

Grant McMillan said the college was hand picked to join the initiative, largely down to the head of German Ken Pow, who achieved 298 out of 300 in a German language proficiency test.

Shortly before commending Mr Pow for his effort with a certificate, Mr Key also applied is everpresent personal touch, wishing year 13 pupil Hannah Waters a happy 18th birthday.

Mr Key told the pupils about the opportunities that arose from learning a second language, highlighting “the great tragedy” that he did not speak German, despite having an Austrian mother.

Ms Schleich, the German ambassador, said joining the international school network

would reap significant benefits.

“This opens the door to some exciting new possibilities for teachers and students of German at Ashburton College.”

She said strengthening resources could provide pupils with more employment opportunities, here and abroad.

“German is also a language that is easy to pronounce, it is based on the same vowel patterns you find in the Maori language,” Ms Schleich said.

Mr Key took time to answer questions from pupils, before leaving with Ms Goodhew and their entourage for Timaru to open the new $10 million flour plant, visit Roncalli College and see the new teen parent study unit at Timaru Girls’ High School.

Protest ban decision ‘a backroom deal’ Police raid Newly released documents show Economic Development Minister Steven Joyce made a “backroom deal” with oil company Shell over the ban on protesting in the exclusive economic zone, the Labour Party says.

The law change last month banned protesters from dem-

onstrating within 500 metres of ships or oil platforms within New Zealand’s 500km exclusive economic zone.

Penalties include fines of up to $100,000 and a year in prison.

Documents released to Labour under the Official Information Act show Mr Joyce had back-to-back

meetings last September with Shell New Zealand chairman Rob Jager, business advisor Chris Kilby and chief executive of the Petroleum Exploration and Production Association David Robinson.

Labour energy and resources spokeswoman Moana Mackey said the papers showed the ban on

protesting at sea was forged in a meeting with Shell.

“Shell provided a paper to Mr Joyce expressing concern that there was ‘insufficient legal authority’ to clamp down on offshore protests and that the Government ‘has no teeth beyond 12 nautical miles to protect legitimate commer-

cial activity’. Within a month work began on the changes.”

Ms Mackey said the papers showed Energy and Resources Minister Simon Bridges met with Shell again on February 14, just two weeks before he took a paper on the protest changes to Cabinet.

The show must go on and on and on

By Susan Sandys Inhaling liquid through a sinus pot and drinking cinnamon tea are among the techniques Miss Saigon principals have been doing to keep their voices in shape.

The Miss Saigon cast members will perform their final show tonight at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre, after almost sellout audiences since the show opened last week.

Tonight will be their seventh show, and it is a show which has asked a lot of its singers, as they can themselves attest to.

Dialogue throughout the entire three-hour show is sung, and much of the dialogue and the songs themselves require impassioned voices.

John Bayne, who plays John in the show, has his own particular way of keeping his voice in shape.

He uses a sinus pot, a small ceramic pottle with a nozzle, and gave the Guardian and his fellow cast members a demonstration.

He mixed one eighth of a teaspoon of baking soda and one eighth of a teaspoon of salt, preferably not iodised, with warm water.

“It looks like you are doing drugs,” said Matt Williams who plays the popular Engineer character.

Mr Bayne then tilted his head over a tray, and poured the solution into one of his nostrils, and the solution came out the other nostril.

It is not pretty, but Mr Bayne swears by it.

“The salt fights infection,” he said.

He also drank cinnamon tea, for “hydration of the larynx”.

His fellow cast members shunned from sinus pots, but agreed with him about cinnamon

Mr Williams said garlic as well as hot lemon and honey drinks helped his voice, while Kim Willis, who plays Ellen, said wearing scarves to keep her throat warm was important at this time of year.

“Your voice is harder to maintain sometimes, especially in win-

ter months,” Miss Willis said.

Jas, who plays the main role of Kim, said she was staying away from dairy, and as challenging as the show had been, her voice was holding out fine.

“In the morning my voice is a bit crackly, maybe that’s just because we talk too much,” she said.

Matt van den Yssel, who plays

Chris, said while much of the dialogue was impassioned and sounded like yelling, it was actually not really yelling and used entirely different vocal chords.

“It’s not the same as yelling in anger, you are still yelling but you know what muscles to trigger so you are not doing any damage,” Mr van den Yssel said.

“If you do it wrong it will hurt

and it will damage your voice.”

The show had not taken an emotional toll on them despite some of the characters having tragic stories to tell.

Miss Andrada has the most difficult story in this regard, but while she felt the emotion of the role as she played it, once the curtains closed on a satisfied audience she felt elated and happy.

flushed with success

A man’s attempts to flush drugs down his toilet during a police raid were foiled because the system was already blocked by electronic scales.

Hamilton police said they were “flushed with success” after officers stopped the 32-year-old man disposing of what is believed to be methamphetamine.

He had been trying to dispose “of a large quantity of what is believed to be methamphetamine when he blocked a toilet with a pair of electronic scales”, Senior Sergeant Freda Grace said.

Armed police were involved in the search of the Fairfield home yesterday.

“Quite often when dealing with offenders involved with drugs our staff encounter people armed with a variety of weapons and in yesterday’s case two imitation firearms were recovered,” Ms Grace said.

She said as well as the drugs, a “sizeable amount of cash” had also been seized from the home.

A man has been charged with possession of methamphetamine for supply and breach of bail charges and was due to appear in the Hamilton District Court today.

Mother watched dramatic rescue The mother of the Chinese newborn trapped in a sewer pipe in a stunning ordeal caught on video had raised the initial alarm and was present for the entire twohour rescue but did not admit giving birth until confronted by police, reports said yesterday.

The state-run, Hangzhoubased newspaper Dushikuaibao said police became suspicious when they found baby toys and blood-stained toilet paper in the 22-year-old woman’s rented room in the building where the weekend’s rescue occurred in eastern China.

The woman, whose name was not revealed in state media reports, confessed to police when they asked her to undergo a medical check-up.

The woman told police she could not afford an abortion and secretly delivered the child in the toilet. She said she tried to catch the baby but he slipped into the sewer line and that she alerted her landlord of the trapped baby after she could not pull the child out, the Jinhua-based Zhezhong News said.

Video of the rescue of Baby No. 59 – so named because of his incubator number in the hospital – was shown on Chinese news programmes and websites and picked up worldwide, prompting both horror and an outpouring of charity on behalf of the newborn.

The mother’s reported confession raises questions about whether she intended to abandon the baby, while suggesting that she was desperate and did not know what to do.

Zhezhong News said the woman

A baby who was rescued after being trapped in a sewage pipe just below a squat toilet in a public building, lies on a bed at a hospital in Jinhua city, eastern China. is a high school graduate who works at a restaurant in the Zhejiang province city of Jinhua.

She said she became pregnant after a one-night stand with a man who later denied any responsibility. The woman did not reveal the pregnancy to her parents. She also said she wanted to raise the child but had no idea how to do it, according to local reports.

Firefighters were called to the residential building in the Pujiang area of Jinhua to rescue the baby, which was trapped in an L-shaped section of sewage pipe just below a squat toilet in one of the building’s public restrooms.

In the video, officials were shown removing the pipe from a ceiling that apparently was just below the restroom and then, at the hospital, using pliers and saws to gently pull apart the pipe, which was about 10cm in diameter.

The baby, who weighed 2.8kg (6 pounds, 2.8 ounces), had a low heart rate and some minor abrasions on his head and limbs, but was mostly unhurt, according to local reports. The placenta was still attached.

News of the baby’s ordeal was met with horror and pity by bloggers on Chinese sites.

By Tina Morrison Hubbard Management Fund investors will receive a third payment of 15 cents in the dollar from statutory managers, taking the total returned so far from the distressed fund to 40 cents in the dollar.

“We continue to realise the more liquid investments in Hubbard Management Fund in addition to investments with a more limited market demand for their full value, for the return to investors,” statutory management firm Grant Thornton said in a statement. The remaining investments “are now mostly unlisted or low liquidity assets which will be more difficult to realise quickly for good value”.

Future payments will be made when the managers can realise sufficient investments, the statutory managers said. The latest payment totals $3.2 million.

Meanwhile, investors in the late

Allan Hubbard’s Aorangi Securities will receive their first repayment since the statutory managers came to an agreement with his widow Jean earlier this month over disputed assets.

Aorangi investors will get 5 cents in the dollar, taking the total received so far to 20 cents in the dollar, the managers said. The latest payment totals $4.8 million.

Scheduled farm settlements at the end of May and early June should allow further payments to Aorangi investors by the end of June, the managers said.

The statutory managers cut a deal with Jean Hubbard, the widow of late businessman Allan Hubbard and the executor of his estate, earlier this month over $60 million of disputed assets which will mean investors in Aorangi will get most, if not all, of their capital returned.

An update on the further realisation of assets will be included in the next Aorangi statutory managers’ – APNZ report due late July.

New Zealand’s new building consents rose to a five-year high last month as new apartments and retirement village units added to the weight of pending construction permits.

Building consents rose 43 per cent to 1755 in April from the same month a year earlier, the most in a month since April 2008, according to Statistics New Zealand. Seasonally

The Reserve Bank sold a net $256 million into foreign exchange markets last month as it looked to trim the kiwi dollar’s high points in April, and its governor Graeme Wheeler is willing to ramp up his currency intervention as long as it works.

The bank reduced its foreign currency intervention capacity to $8.48 billion in April from $8.7 billion a month earlier, RBNZ figures show. That adds to a net sale of $199 million of New Zealand

dollars in December and $64 million in November.

The release comes after Wheeler told the Institute of Directors yesterday morning that the bank has been intervening in recent months and is “prepared to scale up our foreign exchange activities if we see opportunities to have greater influence”.

The kiwi rose as high as 86.77 US cents in April, and has shed 6.6 per cent since then, recently trading at 80.95 cents. On a trade-weighted basis, it climbed as high as 79.39 in April, and has dropped 3.8 per cent to 76.35.

Earlier this month Wheeler told Parliament’s finance and expenditure committee the bank had intervened to take the tops off rallies. The bank last confirmed an intervention in mid-2007 when it sold a net $2.36 billion over three months, and sold a net $1.64 billion over five months in mid-2008 when the kiwi dollar plunged in the lead-up to the global financial crisis.

Wheeler has to contend with the high kiwi limiting imported inflation and holding back export receipts, while at the same time the low interest rate environment is stoking the residential

property market, threatening to create inflationary pressures.

The consumers price index was 0.9 per cent in the first quarter, just short of the central bank’s target band of between 1 per cent and 3 per cent.

The central bank is reluctant to hike the official cash rate from its recordlow 2.5 per cent as it may add to the attraction of the kiwi by offering higher yields.

Traders expect 29 basis points of hikes to the OCR over the next 12 months, based on the Overnight Index – APNZ Swap curve.

Westland Milk also goes for $7 mark

By Jamie Gray Westland Milk Products, the second biggest New Zealand dairy co-operative after Fonterra, issued a pay-out prediction for the 2013-14 season of $6.60 to $7 per kg of milk solids – up 60 to 70 cents on the current season.

The payout forecast compares with Fonterra’s farmgate milk price forecast of $7.00 per kg 2013/14 – up $1.20 per kg or 20.7 per cent on the current season. Hokitika-based Westland Milk also confirmed the forecast payout for this

season of $6 to $6.30 per kg, excluding retentions.

Westland chief executive Rod Quin said the forward view for the dairy market was “relatively strong”, even with the recent decline from the highs of six weeks ago. The outlook was being driven by ongoing firm demand and the expected shortfall of milk supply from key exporting markets, he said.

“The market is showing signs of supply constraints and higher than average prices are expected throughout next season,” he said in a statement.

“With the market particularly volatile

as a result of the drought, we expect prices to be higher at the start of the season and remain relatively high throughout,” he said.

Quin said the high value of the New Zealand dollar remained an issue. “It is contributing to the volatility of the dairy export market and impacts on the timing and value of final contracts under negotiation for the 2012/13 season,” he said. Westland has positioned itself in the higher value nutritionals end of the dairy product market in a strategic move aimed at reducing its reliance on volatile bulk commodities markets.

Lombard directors face stiffer sentences

By Paul McBeth

Sir Douglas Graham

All four directors of failed lender Lombard Finance & Investments face stiffer sentences after the Court of Appeal upheld their convictions and agreed with the Crown that Justice Robert Dobson didn’t send a strong enough message in the High Court to deter others from the same pitfalls.

Justices Anthony Randerson, John Wild, and Christine French upheld the convictions of Doug Graham, Bill Jeffries, Lawrie Bryant and Michael Reeves, and accepted the Crown’s contention that the starting points for their respective sentences was too low which needed to “reflect the gravity of the offending”.

All four avoided jail time when sentenced in March last year, when Justice Dobson said the offending was much less serious than that involving other failed finance companies such as Bridgecorp.

They had been found guilty of making untrue statements in investment docu-

ments and advertisements in late 2007 and early 2008 and the Crown had initially sought jail terms.

“We are satisfied that the sentences imposed on each of the respondent directors were manifestly inadequate,” Justice Randerson said in the written judgment.

“By adopting a non-custodial starting point, the judge did not give sufficient weight to the sentencing purposes of accountability, denunciation and general deterrence nor to the serious consequences to those who invested in reliance on the truth of the statements in the amended prospectus,” the judgment said.

That meant a sentence of home detention was the lightest that could be imposed to meet the purposes of the Sentencing Act, the judges said.

The Appeal Court won’t make a final decision on the Crown’s appeal until it has received updated reports on the availability of suitable addresses for home detention.

Bombs kill 30 in Baghdad

US drone strike kills Taliban No.2 A US drone strike has killed the deputy chief of the Pakistani Taliban in the country’s lawless tribal north-west, officials say, dealing a major blow to the militant network.

Waliur Rehman, the number two in the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) faction, died along with at least five others in a missile attack from an unmanned US drone in North Waziristan district yesterday.

Security sources told AFP that Rehman, who had a $US5 million ($A5.23 million) US government bounty on his head, was the target of the strike, which came a week after US President Barack Obama outlined more restrictive guidelines on drone use.

Officials in several towns, as well as tribal and intelligence sources, confirmed Rehman’s death in the attack in Chashma village near Miranshah, the main town in North Waziristan district, a stronghold of Taliban and Al-Qaeda-linked militants.

Washington had accused Rehman of organising attacks against US and Nato wants him in connection with a suicide attack on an American base in Afghanistan in 2009 that killed seven CIA agents.

Rehman had been a key figure in the TTP since its inception in 2007 and was second-incommand of the national hierarchy behind Hakimullah Mehsud, as well as leading the group in South Waziristan.

Drone strikes have been unpopular in Pakistan, where the government publicly denounces them as illegal and a violation of sovereignty. But Washington believes they have been effective in wiping out important Taliban and Al-Qaeda leaders.

Obama last week defended the legality of the CIA-run strikes, which began in Pakistan in 2004 but became more frequent during his presidency. But he outlined new rules for their use.

The guidelines say drone strikes can only be used to prevent imminent attacks, when the capture

No abortion for ill woman El Salvador’s Supreme Court ruled yesterday against allowing a woman suffering from kidney failure and lupus to terminate a pregnancy in which the fetus is given no chance of surviving.

The Central American country’s laws prohibit all abortions, even when a woman’s health is at risk.

At present, the woman and any doctor who terminated her pregnancy would face arrest and criminal charges.

The judges voted 4-to-1 to reject the appeal by the woman’s lawyers, who argued that continuing with the pregnancy puts her life at risk.

The court said physical and

psychological exams done on the woman, who is 26 weeks pregnant, by the government-run Institute of Legal Medicine found that her diseases are under control and she can continue the pregnancy.

The woman, a 22-year-old mother of one, is described as in fragile health. She has lupus, a chronic immune disorder, and kidney failure, and medical experts have said the pregnancy is a threat to her health.

Ultrasound images, meanwhile, indicated the fetus is developing with only a brain stem, a condition known as anencephaly. Most babies born with anencephaly live – AP only a few days.

Man charged in UK soldier’s murder Police have charged a man with murder in the killing of a British soldier in a suspected Islamic extremist attack in broad daylight on a London street.

ARIES (Mar 21st Apr 20th) So how was this month for you? As you sit on the cusp of the new one, you may find yourself unusually whimsical and reflective about some of what has happened.

Part of this comes from the Moon passing over Neptune, and partly the move of Mercury into your home zone. However, something can yet illuminate your day wonderfully well.

Bomb blasts tore through two Baghdad neighbourhoods yesterday killing at least 30 people including several members of a wedding party, and extending a relentless wave of bloodshed roiling Iraq.

The attacks come as the country is experiencing its most sustained bout of violence since the 2011 US military withdrawal. More than 500 people have been killed since the start of May. Yesterday’s deadliest attack struck a commercial street in the mixed Sunni-Shiite Jihad neighborhood, killing 18 and wounding 42, police said. Many of those slain were in a wedding party that was passing by when the blast went off, according to authorities.

The south-western neighbourhood was one of the earliest flashpoints in Baghdad’s descent into sectarian bloodshed in the years following the 2003 US-led invasion. It housed mainly Sunni civil servants and security officials under Saddam Hussein’s regime, though many Shiites now live there too.

Many of Jihad’s Sunni residents earlier this year received threatening leaflets from a Shiite militant group warning them to leave. The group, the Mukhtar Army, is not known to have carried out car bombings in the past.

Another 12 people were killed and 31 were wounded when a roadside bomb and then a car bomb exploded near a market, killing 10 people and wounding 25, police said.

Hospital officials confirmed the casualties.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attacks.

Car bombings in civilian areas are often the work of al-Qaida’s Iraq arm, which aims to undermine faith in the Shiite-led government.

wielding bloody knives and meat cleavers. Both men were shot and wounded by police.

Suspect Michael Adebolajo, 28, remains hospitalised in stable condition. Adebowale was discharged from a hospital Wednesday and taken into custody. Adebowale also was charged with a firearms offense related to possessing a 9.4 mm revolver with the intent “to cause persons to believe that unlawful violence would be used,” police said in a statement announcing the charges. The charges shed further light – AP on the frenzied attack.

Sharif, due to assume office on June 5, has called the drone strikes a “challenge” to his country’s sovereignty and said Washington must take Pakistani concerns seriously.

According to Britain’s Bureau of Investigative Journalism, CIA

drone attacks targeting suspected Al-Qaeda and Taliban militants in Pakistan have killed up to 3587 people since 2004, including as many as 884 civilians.

The frequency of drone strikes in Pakistan has tailed off in recent months, the last com-

ing on April 17. On Monday US Secretary of State John Kerry said this was because the tactic had “been so successful in rooting out Al-Qaeda in Pakistan” and was only used after targets were confirmed “at the highest levels”.

These dogs want hugs, not drugs There’s a new breed of dog in US airports. They aren’t sniffing for drugs or bombs – they’re looking for people who need a friend, a belly to rub or a paw to shake.

The dogs are intended to take the stress out of travel – the crowds, long lines and terrorism concerns.

“His job is to be touched,” volunteer Kyra Hubis said of Henry James, her five-year-old golden retriever that works a few hours a week at one California airport.

“I am just standing there with him. They are talking to him. If I need to answer for him, I do. But I am at the end of his leash, he’s not at the end of mine.”

Mineta San Jose International Airport is widely credited with introducing the airport therapy dog in the days after the September 11, 2001, attacks, when flights were grounded, anxious passengers were stranded and reaching friends and relatives was nearly impossible.

Then a volunteer airport chaplain got permission to bring his dog Orion to work. He made such a difference that San Jose formalized the program and now has nine dogs. Miami International Airport now has one, and Los Angeles International Airport has 30.

You never know why people are flying, said Heidi Huebner, director of volunteers at the Los Angeles airport, which launched Pets Unstressing Passengers

“You can literally feel the stress levels drop. People start smiling, strangers start talking to each other and everybody walks away feeling really, really good,” Huebner said.

Dogs have to be healthy,

skilled, stable, well-mannered and able to work on a slack 1.2m leash, said Billie Smith, executive director of Therapy Dogs, Inc, which certifies the airport’s animals. They have to be comfortable with crowds, sounds, smells – and they need to pass through security like all airport workers.

GEMINI (May 22nd Jun 21st) Although the Quarter Moon today can create some confusion around your role in life, the arrival of Mars will see you want to punch through this and get on the front foot as soon as possible.

Be open to all that is novel and unique.

You can gain through taking the less trodden path. Don’t be a trend follower Gemini, lead the way.

CANCER (Jun 22nd - Jul 23rd) With Mercury joining your sign today, something that has been unsettling you can seem clearer and less worrisome - or will it? It’s all about perspective, and if you lose sight of what is really important, the next week could still see you get something completely out of proportion.

This may be linked to a past as much as current event.

Yet there is a slice of irony, because Mercury enters your sector of secrets. You can balance this out by getting together with those you truly trust.

Shared finances can however, seem very blurry today.

If not it may seem as if you are a bit woolly, or worse blowing your own trumpet. What is true is that this is an excellent time to show ambition and your networking skills will be key to progress.

LIBRA (Sep 24th Oct 23rd) Watch out for a sly dig today. In fact, you may have more than one coming your way as someone uses a guilt trip to get you to do something that suits them, not you.

With Mars giving you extra bite you can assert any need to be more independent.

Los Angeles’ dogs are as varied as its passengers. There’s a longhaired dalmatian, a lab-pointer mix, a field spaniel, a poodle, three Australian labradoodles, a doberman and an Irish wolfhound named Finn.

Miami’s sole dog, Casey, a fouryear-old golden retriever, has her own website, fan mail, business cards and a role on Airport 24/7: Miami, a weekly reality show on the Travel Channel.

“Casey is so pure and genuine,” said Dickie Davis, director of terminal operations and customer service. “She’s not asking for anything or selling anything.

She is just a love magnet.”

When Claudia McCaskill’s family recently flew home from vacation in Brazil, she requested Casey meet the plane to greet her five-year-old daughter, Carina, who is autistic. She knew Carina would be low on energy and patience, and they still had a 2.5-hour drive home.

Casey and handler Liz Miller were there with a gift basket, and Carina fell in love with the dog.

The storm was later downgraded to a tropical storm with maximum sustained winds of 96km/h, the US National Hurricane Centre said yesterday. It had made landfall in the state of Chiapas, a rural region with archeological sites near the neighbouring state of Oaxaca. Hundreds of people were being evacuated from affected areas in Chiapas, state civil protection officials said.

• Sulking gamblers Apes sulk when they lose a bet, just like humans do, researchers have found. A new study by researchers at Yale and Duke Universities in the United States, revealed in the open-access science journal PLOS ONE, found chimpanzees and bonobos displayed emotional responses to outcomes of their decisions. The reactions included pouting or throwing angry tantrums when a risk-taking strategy failed to pay off – although chimpanzees reacted better to a losing gamble. The study found both chimps and bonobos – also known as dwarf chimpanzees – displayed negative emotional responses including pouts, moans, scratching and banging – a type of tantrum thought to reflect anger in apes. – AAP

ASHBURTON GUARDIAN, Friday, May 31, 2013

Writing and photography done by Ashburton Intermediate School students and teachers.

Year 8 students tackle Peel Forest and the mountain 6.30am. Rustle! Rustle!

“What’s that?”

Miss Tonks loudly unzipped the tent.

“Get up! Get up!” she shouted as she shook Braxton’s stretcher.

I got up feeling quite tired, but I was ready to climb to the very peak of Little Mt Peel. It didn’t take long to get all 57 of us into vehicles. Soon we were at the foot of the mountain.

As we set foot on the muddy brown track, I could hear the chirp of a small, colourful fantail as it flew over our heads. I could taste the sugar from the Starburst as it stuck to the roof of my mouth. The lush green trees turned into dry tussock as we marched further into the track.

Finally the peak of Little Mt Peel was visible.

Getting to the summit was a great achievement, but with that came exhaustion. We were all hungry and thirsty, so while we were there we filled up our drink bottles and ate our sandwiches. In no time we set off back down the mountain. On the way down, we took more stops than we did going up. This was frustrating as we were at the back of the line. Many long hours later, we approached the cars waiting to go back to camp.

As we all hopped into the cars, the smell of rotten cabbages filled the air as everyone pulled off their muddy shoes and sweaty socks.

When we got back to the camp there was a big rush to get a hot shower. Everybody felt refreshed after and we were ready for camp skits and scary stories to help us relax. We were all looking forward to a nice lie-in after a long day.

With the camp concert all finished, we all had a chance to reflect on our big day up ‘not-solittle’ Little Mt Peel. We had a good time chatting, saw astonishing views and made great memories.

by Joe Bryning (8/2) Here is one of the scary stories Lachie Noonan’s dad Craig shared with us on that night. It sure scared a few of the girls.

The Peel Forest Peeler “Since we are all here in Peel Forest I assume that your teachers have told you all about the Peel Forest Peeler? What they

haven’t? Then perhaps I shouldn’t say anything more.”

(Pause, waiting for the audience to beg him to tell them.)

Well, way back in 1984 nine kids went missing over a period of a month from this very campground while they were playing spotlight.

It was Dennis Clancy also known as the “Peel Forest Peeler”. He would wait until night time when all the children were playing spotlight and the teachers and parents were counting or looking for the kids. He would simply blend in, and using a lantern would look for kids hiding in dark places in their

secret hiding spots.

As he approached each child the child would yell and laugh, ‘Ha, Ha. You found me.’ Not realising that this person was not a teacher or parent, but the PEEL FOREST PEELER!!!!!!

He would blow out his lantern, grab the child and cover their mouth, then take them back to the little hut he built out of stones against the bush, just down in the paddock below us.

You couldn’t see this hut as he did such a good job of blending it into the background, but it was down about 200 metres from

where we are now. There he would take a potato peeler, just like Mrs Lemon uses, and peel each child’s head, scalping them, removing their hair.

What happened to the hair?

No-one quite knows, but Dennis Clancy was bald so some people think he liked wearing the scalps of the children.

What happened to the children no-one knows either. Perhaps they are still hidden somewhere or perhaps Dennis Clancy ate them!!!

No-one really knows!!!

After the disappearance of the ninth child, the police found the

stone hut, the lantern and Dennis Clancy the ‘Peel Forest Peeler’. He was sentenced to prison for 29 years, so you are quite safe and have no need to worry.

The Peel Forest Peeler always said that when he gets out he will go home to Peel Forest. Will he get up to his old tricks? No-one knows!

He won’t be released until May 30, 2013! Oh dear, that was last week!

MAKE SURE YOUR TENTS ARE SHUT AND DON’T WANDER OFF ALONE TO STAY SAFE FROM THE PEEL FOREST PEELER

Year 8s’ big tramp All the Year 8s who went on the fun-filled camp at Peel Forest had one major challenge which pushed us all out of our comfort zone.

We had to climb Little Mt Peel (1300m approx). Prior to the climb we did several long walks each day at camp to prepare us for the five-to-six hour tramp up the mountain.

We started extremely early in the morning so there was plenty of moaning and complaining.

It was cool as we first started out but we warmed up rather quickly, as we soon were climbing up a steep path.

The majority of the Year 8 students made it to the top over the four weeks the seven classes climbed it. It was a great feeling

Robots on the loose

Beep! Beep! Beep! The Year 8’s of AIS have been studying how to programme Lego Mind Storm Robots with one of our technology teachers, Mr Butler. In order to do so we use software downloaded on the laptops called Lego Mind Storm. We have plenty of activities to complete, for example: Following lines, giving readings of different surfaces, making sounds and lots of other fun activities. Presently, we have been given a task to complete, a Robotics assignment about a real life robot of our choice.

In the assignment we have to include the appearance of the robot, what it is capable of and of course the name of our robot!

Wyatt Burrows and Matthew Overweel 8/1

when we reached the summit! The view was breathtaking as we took in the Canterbury Plains and the surrounding mountains.

I felt a surge of relief as I reached the summit, but it drained within seconds as I realised we still had to go back down. In my opinion, descending the mountain was the worst part as it was really steep in places and I stumbled continuously.

The muddy conditions caused many of us to slip and fall. The tramp was a great achievement but is also was the most tiring activity I have ever done in my life!

It made me believe that you can achieve anything when you put your mind to it. Watch out Year 7s because it will be your turn next!

Students have fun on wheels In May we (8/5) were lucky enough to have skating and rollerblading sessions at school. We were given instructions and safety gear. We had helmets, elbow, wrist and knee protectors.

The aim of the session was to have some fun and to try something new.

Everyone participated and had fun trying out new activities.

‘A great experience’ This year, the Year 8s were given the chance to go to Peel Forest for camp in the middle of term one.

All classes but our class (8/1) went with one other class. Our class unfortunately had the first day cancelled as it was raining.

All classes had the chance to cook on gas cookers for breakfast (if you wanted toast), lunch (if bacon was on the menu) and tea. Everyone had to sleep in freezing cold tents on top of hard stretchers.

On the Wednesday, we visited the church of Holy Innocents.

The church and grave stones were very interesting. On the Thursday we came face to face with Little Mt Peel.

For some classes it was cold and cloudy but for others it was hot and sunny!

On the Friday, it was the day you eat even more food than what you had already ate the last couple of days and pack up all of our messy tents.

Overall, camp was a great experience and we ate lots of food! I would like to retrace these steps again!

T

his lovely character home was believed to be architecturally designed in 1930 for 2 spinster sisters who lived there for 19 years.

The house was constructed with quality materials with a rimu staircase and doors. A lot of this fabulous woodwork has been restored to enhance the homes original character.

The house has had six owners over approximately 80 years. The second owner was the town clerk who was a very keen gardener and is credited with planting most of the mature trees the house is surrounded by today.

The house is very well designed with a sunny living room opening to large rear section and a formal lounge overlooking Baring square.

The home is well positioned in grand central location in the heart of the town close to the Domain and shopping area.

The current owners have done a wonderful job of enhancing the original character with some modernising making this home a real treasure.

Thinking about buying?

Future-proof your lifetime investment P

roperty investment is mainly inspired by the thought that the buyer is making a successful long-term investment which will one day provide security for the future, therefore the all-important purchase shouldn’t be a rushed decision. After you have set your finances in order by ensuring you have a great credit rating and a healthy deposit, there are a few lesser-known points to consider before buying your first home, to make sure your purchase is a wise one.

The first main point is to take a deep breath and don’t rush any decision. It’s easy to think you have found your dream home within the first few homes you look at, but that’s mainly because you are in love with the idea of owning your own home, not with the actual home itself. It’s easy to let emotions get in the way of reality, or get sudden amnesia about factors that may make a difference.

A house may quickly seem like everything you’ve ever dreamed about, but before you make an offer, take some time to consider a few things beyond the size, style and price.

The first consideration is longevity. If you can’t commit to remaining in one place for at least a few years, then owning your own home is probably not

Open Homes

If you are unsure of your professional development over the next few years, saving the cash difference and not paying huge interest costs on a mortgage is often a wiser decision for your long-term financial health. So take a moment and ask yourself why you are really wanting to purchase your own home. If it’s to impress others, then you may want to reconsider your motives. If it is to settle in the area long-term and build your career and family locally, then it is time to move forward and begin the search for your dream home.

for you, at least not yet. Take into consideration your family, the prospect of children or more children entering in the future and your own professional goals. With the transaction costs of buying and selling a home, you may end up losing money if you need to sell your home within a short period of time, even in a growing market.

If you could afford a second mortgage however, this consideration is not important, as you could transform your new purchase into an investment rental and then purchase an additional property at your new location. If you are unsure of your immediate future, discuss these options with your finance provider to see if you are in the position to finance two mortgages if the need arises.

Location, location, location. Possibly the most important factor when considering the purchase of a home. If you are purchasing seaside, research if erosion could potentially be a problem in the future, making it hard to sell. If purchasing riverside, check to see how well-protected the property is from a potential flood.

Is it really that big a deal to own your own home right now? Do you only want it because you think it’s expected of you or for the prestige of saying you own your own home? If the cost of owning your own home, including insurance, rates and other home owner costs is more than 35% more than the cost of renting, is it really a wise financial move, or would you be better off saving the cash difference and investing in a term deposit.

If you are purchasing a large family home, make sure it is close to a well-rated school. In most areas, this advice applies even if you don’t have schoolage children. When it comes time to sell, you’ll learn that strong school districts are a top priority for many home buyers, thus helping to boost property values. If your home is a small haven that

would suit a professional couple or retired couple, ensure it is close to amenities that matter, such as a supermarket, doctor and pharmacy.

Don’t automatically reject a house just because it doesn’t meet your feature desires. You can always change the drapes, paint over an ugly feature wall colour or build your own deck. Location is the most important feature, aesthetics of the physical home can easily be changed.

Don’t be automatically thrown if an asking price seems slightly out of reach. Think of the asking price as just a starting point for negotiation. Make offers and counteroffers toward a price that is acceptable to you, and if it doesn’t fit within your budget, then re-continue the search, but only after you have negotiated first.

Analysing your motives toward purchasing a home and considering your longevity in the area will ensure you are purchasing a home for the right reasons. It is in the best interest of your longterm financial health and security, so before you get carried away in the excitement of the hunt, take some time to decide if it will be an asset or a hindrance to your future.

If you’re on the market during the winter, think “warm, cosy and homely”.

And while it’s true that in most areas you’ll probably have fewer buyers during the winter It is a myth that homes don’t sell in the winter.

Before a buyer comes through, adjust the thermostat to a warmer temperature to make it welcoming. “Some sellers like to turn the temperature down because of heat costs”. But buyers who come in and aren’t comfortable won’t stay long.

By Jonathan Leask The 2013 Watters Cup starts the same way it finished last season.

Methven and Celtic go headto-head to start the Watters Cup round robin, with two trophies on the line in the grand final replay on Monday.

Celtic will take the Max Gilbert Trophy up the road to the defending Watters Cup champions Methven, and the two sides will also play for the Bill Walsh Cup for the first time.

Walsh has an impressive Watters Cup record, winning it twice as a player with Methven and then as a coach leading Methven to four consecutive titles between 1966 (when they shared it with Tech Old Boys ‘titles) to 1969.

He then moved to Rakaia coaching lower grade rugby and then coached at Celtic, where his sons and grandsons have played their rugby, which is why the Walsh family have donated the trophy to be played for annually between Methven and Celtic.

The trophy’s first instalment looks set to be a blockbuster.

Celtic are looking to continue their good start to the season which has seen them qualify for the top eight of the Combined Country Cup for the first time, in its new format since North Canterbury joined in 2007, and have a date with defending champions Southbridge five days after the clash with Methven.

For the first time in four years, Methven has missed out on the top eight, but have won their last four matches and are eyeing up a repeat Watters Cup win.

No team has successfully won back-to-back outright titles since Celtic won four straight between 1997 and 2000 (with Southern winning three straight from 2005 to 2007 but sharing the cup with Celtic in 2006), and Methven has had back-to-back Watters Cup win since Walsh was at the helm.

The other match has Rakaia hosting Southern.

Rakaia have been the high flyers so far this season topping section one with seven wins from their eight games.

Southern have struggled to date with only two wins over Ohoka and Prebbleton, but only lost by two points to Hampstead and a last minute penalty goal to Celtic.

Hampstead has the bye.

The Watters Cup round robin will then resume on June 29 following the completion of the Combined Country Cup. Celtic have started this season well, and go head-to-head with Methven on Monday.

Adams tipped for early NBA draft New Zealand teenager Steven Adams has been tipped by Sports Illustrated to be a first round pick in the NBA draft next month.

In an NBA mock draft, Sports Illustrated projected that the Pittsburgh Freshman would go to the Boston Celtics as the 16th pick due to his 2.13m frame. “With or without the core of Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce - two players who may not be in Boston when training camp opens - the Celtics need size,�

SI.com said in their mock draft. “Adams is a project; the consensus among executives is that he will spend most or all of next season in the D-League, where he can get used to the speed of an NBA-level game. “But Adams oozes potential. At 7 feet, 254 pounds with a wingspan of 7-5 and enormous hands (9.5 inches long, 11 inches wide), Adams is a physical specimen with extraordinary athletic ability

Young guns aiming for hockey hat-trick

By Jonathan Leask

who showed nice range for a big man at the combine.�

The NBA draft, which plays out on June 28, sees NBA teams select a total of 60 players from a list of college players and international prospects.

Generally the lowest-placed sides from the previous season get the first picks, though teams can trade their draft choices to move higher up the list.

The key for Adams is being a first-round top-30 pick. That would guarantee a salary of more than US$1 million (last year’s final first round pick earned US$850,00 ($1.05 million).

This year’s draft is noticeably short on genuine star quality, which might be another point in his favour.

If it eventuates, Adams would become the first New Zealander to be drafted in the first round Steven Adams: ‘Oozing potenntial’, and the third Kiwi to feature in and could be heading for the Boston - HOL Celtics. the NBA.

Mid Canterbury senior men’s hockey team is after an Ian Smith hat-trick in Gore this weekend.

Sam Moore has taken over the organising of the side from Mark Bennett and has been scraping for numbers. “It’s been a bit of a struggle with a number of guys unavailable for a number of reasons,� Moore said.

Mid Canterbury proved too strong in the round-robin tournament last year finishing on five wins, four of those with a winning margin of four or more goals, but a majority of that side won’t be heading to Gore this weekend.

The side will lean heavily on the experience of Andrew Moore and Adam Wilson with a number of the “old boys� absent this year, meaning the young guys get their shot. “It’s always bound to happen that new players have to step up, but it’s just unfortunate we’ll have so many doing it at one time.�

The side will be going in underdone having not played their annual match against South Canterbury for the Taylor Shield yet, however, being comprised of mainly Wakanui players there is plenty of “familiarity� in the ranks. “The team is mainly made up of Wakanui Blue guys or former Wakanui Blue guys, so there is a level of familiarity there which is a bonus but we have lost a lot of representative level experience. “It was hard to win it once and to defend it last year and with an inexperienced side it will be hard to defend again, but we’ll be going down to have a real go at a hat-trick.�

The six Southern minor association men’s teams each play five games over three days with Mid Canterbury having a Hanan Shield Saturday taking on North Otago and South Canterbury.

On Sunday they meet Central Otago and Invercargill before possibly their biggest challenge, last year’s runners-up Eastern Southland on Monday.

ASHBURTON GUARDIAN, Friday, May 31, 2013

By Dave James 2009 champion Roger Federer raced into the third round at the French Open yesterday with a 6-2 6-1 6-1 thrashing of India’s Somdev Devvarman.

Federer, with a record 17 grand slam titles, bagged his 56th win on the Roland Garros clay to stand just two behind the record of Guillermo Vilas and Nicola Pietrangeli.

He next faces Julien Benneteau of France - a five-set winner over Germany’s Tobias Kamke. “It’s great that all the work is paying off and I hope to keep experiencing this as long as possible,� said Federer, who is competing in his 54th straight grand slam tournament.

Spanish fourth seed and 2012 semi-finalist David Ferrer made

the third round beating compatriot Albert Montanes 6-2 6-1 6-3. “I was feeling really good. We had long rallies and I’m very, very satisfied because I think I played very good tennis,� said Ferrer.

Sixth seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Gael Monfils served up a centre court double treat to keep home hopes alive of a first men’s champion in 30 years.

Tsonga, a quarter-finalist last year when he squandered four match points against world No.1 Novak Djokovic, defeated Finnish veteran Jarkko Nieminen 7-6 (8-6) 6-4 6-3. He next faces compatriot Jeremy Chardy. “I’m French, it’s in France and, of course, there may be a bit more pressure but, for me, it’s positive,� said Tsonga.

Wildcard Monfils, a semi-finalist in 2008, won a thrilling contest against in-form but unpredictable

Carter under the microscope

By Andrew Alderson Bob Carter’s role as New Zealand assistant coach looks set for maximum scrutiny when the test series against England is reviewed.

Carter has been tasked with curing New Zealand’s batting woes since August 2012.

Setting aside Ross Taylor and Kane Williamson’s centuries to help win the second test in Sri Lanka at the end of November, New Zealand has struggled in five consecutive overseas test series.

The team has played eight tests abroad for seven losses in that time. In only one of those tests the second against India - did the batting produce competitive totals (365 and 248) compared to the opposition. By coincidence, Taylor made a first innings century in that test, too.

Eight of the 16 innings in question have produced sub-200 totals, although one was the second innings declaration at 194 for nine in the Colombo win. There have been two scores over 300.

Criticism had been tempered by what seemed genuine improve-

ment on batsmen-friendly wickets in New Zealand for a drawn threetest series against world No. 2 England. Redemption has been short-lived.

The visitors could muster just 669 runs over four innings in England, the principle reason they’ll remain eighth in the Test rankings probably until at least 2014. Their next Test series is in Bangladesh during October before a home summer against West Indies and India.

New Zealand’s spell without a victory in England now extends to 14 years. Hopes of such rewards turned on their heel and exited through the picket fence on the Sunday at Lord’s when they were routed for 68.

Any series where Neil Wagner and Tim Southee feature in the top five batting averages makes grim reading.

The onus must always be on players to perform, first and foremost, but such mediocrity cannot continue.

That makes Carter accountable.

The batting (at least overseas) is broken and needs fixing.

The Tahs hardly lifted a finger in the ruck visiting the Rebels and, Barnes aside, the same lack of commitment won't fly here. Their list is loaded but they're playing as if they hardly know each not to mention they're 0-5 in Christchurch since '04. The Crusaders themselves buckled under expectation in Hamilton. Finding enough points to defend is the problem.

The Cheetahs are a chance to join the Bulls on top of the SAC, albeit they'd need to win with a BP. That might be too much right here but if Watts at 10 can put it in front of his grunters and allow loosies Brussow and Labuschagne a bite at the Bulls inside pairing this is up for grabs.

Steyn's boot landed all the points for the Bulls in Durban, and it's getting to the stage in the season where they tighten everywhere. Its a banana skin because they're backing up on the road but they're 10-0 all time including hosting round nine, and 5-0 at Bloemfontein.

Frankie ready for a big day out

By Sue Newman When he arrives at Ashburton Racecourse on Sunday, five-year-old trotter Franco Nadal won’t be able to complain about being float-weary.

He probably has the shortest distance of any runner in the 12 Harness Jewels races to travel to the track, in fact it would be much quicker to walk.

But the rules of racing dictate that all horses must be floated – even if they live on the property - and that’s what trainer Ben Waldron will be doing with Frankie.

When he lines up in the five-yearold Ruby for trotters, Franco Nadal will be carrying a heavy load.

Driver Ricky May might be a lightweight, but he’ll have the expectation of his 40 plus owners in the Ashvegas Five 0 syndicate running with him.

Over the past year Franco Nadal has been a consistently good performer, trainer Waldron said, logging tidy winnings to earn his way into Jewels contention.

And then it all started to wrong.

The horse that was rock solid in his gait began to break over the final 200 metres.

“He’s been off for a while and he knows when things are going wrong.

“We knew he had a problem but a few gear changes, some different shoeing and we’re hoping he’ll be right.

“He’s looking good,” Waldron said.

“We’ve run blood tests and worked him and I’m pretty happy with him right now. He’s been well but for some reason he just hasn’t been doing it.

“He’s got a big engine.

“It’s his gait that’s let him down not his motor.”

Waldron’s been running him at workouts to sharpen him up and to ensure the gelding is up to the mark for his big day out.

He’s looking good, but how he’ll go over the unaccustomed distance of a mile is the unknown quantity.

“Mile racing is intense, they’re in top gear all the way and they’ll hit the highway corner pretty hard.

“They won’t get a lot of time to back off and get their breath.

“Good stayers make good milers.

Frankie’s a good stayer and he’s reasonably solid out of the gate.”

The big crowds are unlikely to faze Franco Nadal, he’s an easy natured horse who seems to take most things in his stride, Waldron said.

“He’s a bit of a sweet talker.”

In the lead up to the biggest race of his life, Franco Nadal won’t be in for any special treatments.

“We’ill keep everything as normal as possible. He’ll continue having massages for his tight hamstrings but there’ll be nothing extra, nothing new.

“The last thing you need is to change anything.”

Franco Nadal might have the country’s top driver Ricky May in the sulky on Sunday, but Waldron is realistic about his chances of snaring the gold trophy.

“I’d be happy with a top five finish, that’s our aim.

“On form, anything that can beat Springbank Sam will win.

“It’s a good field, you don’t get there without being a good horse. Even the horses that run last in those fields you’d be pleased to own.”

For any trainer, getting a horse into a Jewels field was a thrill, Waldron said.

“It’s an awesome day to be part of, that’s what training is all about and you make the most of it when you can.

“You can’t push your horses to get in the field.

“Do that and they’ll be running on empty.

“Some things are just meant to be.”

He’s no Jewels Day novice, running second in 2007 with Mr Molly.

Franco Nadal will have plenty of company on the short float trip from the back paddock, as he’s just one of seven runners Waldron has racing on Sunday.

Latest market for Saturday

Roxy’s ‘taking a knife to a gunfight’

By Sue Newman Roxy Bromac and Jessica Young have a special relationship, but it’s a relationship that punters won’t get a chance to see on day two of Ashburton’s Harness Jewels carnival.

While the five-year-old mare will be lining up in the Diamond Pace over a mile on Sunday, Young won’t be in the sulky.

As a junior driver with 11 winning drives to her credit, she’s still a few short of the number needed to drive on race day in the prestigious event.

The family link will still be there when the mare lines up with the perfect barrier drawer, three, as both Jessica and her father Paul Young who trains the horse will be in the stand cheering her on.

Roxy Bromac sneaked into the Jewels field as 12th qualifier, but just getting there is a thrill, Young senior said.

He’s had the mare since she was a two-year-old, and she’s a member of his small team of eight.

Young admits that in the national picture he’s a small time trainer, and said he owns or part owns all of his team.

“I’ve got a half share in Roxy Bromac as a two year old.

“She was about to be ‘retired’ and we were her last chance.”

Taking a punt on the horse that no one seemed to want has paid dividends for Young and she seems

to be improving with age – one win as a four year old and four this year.

She might be improving but Young’s not counting on taking one of the Jewels trophies home on Sunday.

He describes lining her up against the country’s best in the age group, as “a bit like taking a knife to a gunfight.”

“She’s not the greatest pacer but she’s definitely improved.

“She never works badly and it doesn’t matter what you do she gives it her all.”

In the lead-up to the big race the mare has had a couple of weeks’ spell and is now fresh and ready to go, Young said.

“She’s tearing around the paddock like a two-year-old.”

She ran a couple of superb races under the reinsmanship of Jessica at Methven and Motukarara over the summer, beating a talented field.

She’s a horse who loves grass tracks and Young says she has a real affinity for Motukarara.

Come Sunday, however, she’ll be racing on the fastest all-weather mile track in the country, and she’ll be racing against the country’s best.

She’ll have Colin de Filippi in the sulky instead of Jessica, and Young is relying on de Filippi’s experienced hands to get the best out of her.

Young says he won’t be nervous, he leaves that race day effort to wife Barbara.

And Jessica will be there, no doubt driving from her stands seat, he said.

SUPER 15

McCaw on the

By Patrick McKendry

Richie McCaw is back training - by himself - but the Crusaders have more pressing matters to attend to, namely beating the Waratahs tonight.

The sight of McCaw on the sidelines during the Crusaders training at Rugby Park yesterday raised the excitement levels and suggested the All Blacks captain, currently on sabbatical, might be in line for a shock return against the Sydneysiders at AMI Stadium.

Not so, coach Todd Blackadder later assured the assembled media.

The reality is Blackadder wants to give McCaw as much space as possible; hoping while doing so that the 32-year-old veteran of 116 tests and 120 Super Rugby matches will get the urge to return to the Crusaders after the June tests.

All Blacks coach Steve Hansen would prefer McCaw to get in shape for the Rugby Championship, which starts in August, by playing club rugby for Christchurch.

The Crusaders will be privately hoping their skipper will be keen to pull on a red and black strip of a different sort in July after watching Sam Cane

wearing his black No7 jersey.

Blackadder alluded to that when speaking to Radio Sport yesterday.

“I reckon there’s an itch that’ll need to be scratched,” he said.

“Some big things are about to happen shortly and he’s back training, he’s getting really excited and rejuvenated to get back and play so I don’t think

Richie McCaw

Hurricanes in the prowl hunt for playoffs

that he’ll be too far away.”

The Crusaders must beat the Waratahs to keep their finals ambitions alive and it looms as an intriguing clash.

It will be the first time Daryl Gibson, the former Crusaders assistant coach now with the Waratahs, has come up against his old team and his inside information on a backline he is very familiar with could be useful.

Although Christchurch, like the rest of the country, has endured a cold snap recently, the weather conditions are forecast to be good.

There is unlikely to be a repeat of the miserable, wet, night which did for the Blues a fortnight ago.

Instead, new Wallabies player Israel Folau, a revelation since his switch from AFL and league, is likely to have a firm ground upon which to work his magic.

Blackadder welcomes back hooker Corey Flynn from a hamstring strain, but not All Blacks prop Owen Franks, who has a similar complaint.

He has also chosen to drop halfback Andy Ellis to the

reserves bench in favour of Willi Heinz, with Dominic Bird named in the second row in place of Sam Whitelock, who has a broken finger.

Reserve flanker/lock Jimmy Tupou will make his Super Rugby debut if he takes the field.

The Crusaders, clinging on to the last play-off spot in sixth, need a victory after failing to pick up a competition point when losing to conference rivals the Chiefs in Hamilton last weekend.

Crusaders team to play the Waratahs at AMI Stadium tonight, kick off 7.35pm is: Israel Dagg, Tom Marshall, Ryan Crotty, Tom Taylor, Dan Carter, Willi Heinz, Kieran Read (c), Matt Todd, George Whitelock, Dominic Bird, Luke Romano, Nepo Laulala, Corey Flynn, Wyatt Crockett.

Reserves: Ben Funnell, Joe Moody, Jimmy Tupou, Luke Whitelock, Andy Ellis, Robbie Fruean, Adam Whitelock.

Waratahs: Israel Folau, Cam Crawford, Adam Ashley-Cooper, Rob Horne, Peter Betham, Bernard Foley, Brendan McKibbin, Dave Dennis, Michael Hooper, Pat McCutcheon, Kane Douglas, Sitaleki Timani, Sekope Kepu, John Ulugia, Benn Robinson.

Reserves: Luke Holmes, Paddy Ryan, Will Skelton, Jed Holloway, Matt Lucas, Berrick Barnes, Drew Mitchell.

Mark Hammett did things differently this week.

Firstly, he showed his Hurricanes squad the Super Rugby points table and then felt comfortable enough to discuss that with the media - something which coaches are known to divert from as they tow the party line and suggest they take little notice of such things.

It wasn’t a major admission but it shows the urgency which has now engulfed the Hurricanes’ season; it’s down to: Win or start thinking about 2014.

The problem is their final four games include visits to Canberra, Christchurch and Hamilton while they host a Highlanders side early next month who are the epitome of desperation.

The Australian Conferenceleading Brumbies are on the menu across the Tasman tonight.

“We don’t normally talk,

Blues sticking with Perry in front row Tim Perry will make his fourth start in a row in the Blues front row in their must-win match against the Highlanders tomorrow.

Sir John Kirwan has made five changes with the most notable being Five eighths Baden Kerr returning for a rare start.

Kerr lined up against the Bulls earlier in the season, but for the rest of the tournament has been the backup to Chris Noakes.

Noakes was looking forward to a return tomorrow to Dunedin and a duel with his former Highlanders comrades however his mother’s illness has kept him away from any training throughout this week.

There is still some doubt about Luke Braid’s presence too because of a groin injury he picked up training on the side’s slushy practice ground earlier this week.

Left wing George Moala has missed out because he ignored team protocol and Waisake Naholo will be on the left wing.

There are two confirmed changes in the pack with former All Black lock Anthony Boric coming back for Culum Retallick and James Parsons starting ahead of All Black hooker Keven Mealamu.

That decision, Kirwan explained, was no reflection of Mealamu’s form after his recent strong work.

Instead it was the chance for Parsons to work through the entire week with his lineout jumpers and scrum while Mealamu was on duty at the national training camp.

Parsons was in strong form until he damaged his shoulder last month, an injury which left him out of the side for three games and a cameo return from the bench last week.

The rest of the side’s All Blacks will start in a game the Blues have to win to maintain their push for a possible place in the playoffs.

This is a match where a stumble would be unthinkable if they

Thorn craves one more win

By Patrick McKendry

Brad Thorn has won more things than most players, and now he is experiencing life at the other end of the table.

It’s not a feeling the former All Blacks’ lock likes.

As he said yesterday, he’s had some tough years during his career but nothing that can compare with a season that has reaped one win and 11 losses and with another tough day at the office expected tomorrow night against the Blues in Dunedin.

The Highlanders should have closed out the game last weekend against the Force in Perth.

Instead, they conceded a penalty with two minutes remaining and lost 19-18.

It was probably the low of a terrible season for Jamie Joseph and his team.

“There’s been some tough ones this season,” Thorn said.

“We’ve had some close ones. Generally we’ve been in the fight but that one was pretty disappointing in the weekend.”

Now the Highlanders are

want to keep that goal and, on the evidence of the Highlanders’ wretched season.

They have a solitary win this year but a squad with a clutch of international hopefuls who are pushing for All Black squad and test places who know this is the stage to confirm or change the national selectors’ thinking.

The Blues beat the Highlanders 29-18 when the sides clashed earlier in the season at Eden Park.

Blues: Charles Piutau, Frank Halai, Rene Ranger, Francis Saili, Waisake Naholo, Baden Kerr, Piri Weepu, Peter Saili, Luke Braid/Brendon O’Connor, Steven Luatua, Ali Williams, Anthony Boric, Angus Ta’avao, James Parsons, Tim Perry.

Reserves: Keven Mealamu, Sam Prattley, Culum Retallick, O’Connor/Kane Barrett, Jamison Gibson-Park, Marty McKenzie, Jackson Willison.

Right: Tim Perry has cemented his starting spot with the Blues.

preparing for a team desperate to stay in the play-offs hunt.

“They’ve done a great job up there with a young group of guys,” Thorn said of the Blues.

“Their coaches have done a great job there. They’ve certainly done a lot better than we have this season.

“Well done to them and the coaching staff and Ali [Williams] and those guys.”

Thorn, 38, and remarkably still going strong in the second row despite his advancing

years and a Highlanders’ game plan which sees him running with the ball more than he is used to, said he was happy with his form.

“I’m training as hard as ever. Off the field I put in as much as I have.

“I’ve been pleased with my game. I’m hoping that if I keep it going it can help get a win for the team.”

A World Cup, Heineken Cup, a Super Rugby title with the Crusaders and NRL titles with the Brisbane Broncos, a horror run of losses, Thorn has experienced it all.

Now he just wants to help his team win again this season.

“We just want to win, that’s the feeling from me.” - APNZ Brad Thorn: Been there, done that

From the sideline

Glenn Moore wants to start off his coaching reign on a positive note, and he hopes that involves lifting the Hanan Shield off South Canterbury at their 125th Jubilee celebrations in Timaru tomorrow.

Moore has said that the game, his first in charge, is as much about winning as it is about taking a look at some players ahead of the Heartland competition.

“It’s a combination of both,” Moore said.

“The goal is always to win and we want to take a look at some of the guys and see what they’re like when they are mixed with and against better company.”

Last night Moore named a side with the goal to reclaim the shield, but also give a number of players the chance to put their hands up for Heartland duties later in the season, as his initial stating XV is a mix of new and old faces with only two debutants in the starting XV. All eight members of the starting forward pack have played for Mid Canterbury at least once before.

Jon Dampney will captain the side at number eight, forming a new loose forward trio with Mitch Sim and Kody Nordqvist.

Tukulua Tolu has been in fine try-scoring at Celtic and joins Ron Manu at prop while hooker Jimmy Carr will notch up his 96th cap.

Logan Bonnington and Ross McKay both had time at lock last season, but both get a shot at putting their hand up for a starting role later in the season.

Will McKenzie retains his spot at halfback with Davey Maw sliding back in at 10, and Manase Nonu has Dwayne Burrows outside him in the midfield again.

Josh Walker is at fullback with debutants Tevita Tupou and Josh Nonu forming an exciting wing combination.

It’s a new look side for the new era and one that has had limited preparation for what will be pressure cooker environment for the hosts and shield holders’ jubilee celebrations.

Adams out to extend her winning streak Valerie Adams hasn’t been legitimately beaten in competition for more than three years, and that’s not likely to change this weekend at the Diamond League meeting in Oregon.

The 28-year-old two-time Olympic gold medallist is the headline act

tition,” manager Nick Cowan said.

“But she’s in very, very good shape after a good summer.

“From her and JP’s [coach JeanPierre Egger] point of view, it’s a measure of how things are going rather than a mark of where things are at. There’s enough competition there for Val to have to step up.”

Adams is the only one in the field to have thrown more than 20m this

year, hurling the shot out to 20.37m to win her 12th national title.

Adams also threw 20.75m at an exhibition event at The Cloud in March and followed it with 20.02m at the Sydney Track Classic.

She’s gearing up for a tilt at a fourth world title in Moscow in August - hoping to become the first female thrower to win four world titles - and will also compete

at Diamond League meetings in Lucerne, Paris, London and Zurich.

The landscape might be a little clearer by the end of the season.
