Fresh embarrassment for Bieber

Pop star Justin Bieber has been filmed sleeping in a hotel room by a mystery brunette. On a newly-posted 15-second YouTube video, the 19-year-old is shown dozing shirtless on a huge sofa with his trademark red baseball cap beside him as the young woman films with a mobile phone. She turns the camera on herself at the end, blows a kiss, and smiles and waves at the still snoozing singer. It is not clear when the film was shot, but online rumours suggest it was during Bieber’s current South American leg of his Believe world tour.

H u n t s m a n goes on a big OE A fearsome-looking giant spider common in Australia has given workers at a British warehouse a fright after travelling over from Asia. The 17cmlong huntsman spider came over to East Sussex after stowing away in a shipping container packed with BMX parts in Taiwan. It is believed to have been locked up for six weeks as the container made its way thousands of miles across the oceans before reaching the UK. Shocked staff at Seventies BMX Distribution in St Leonards-on-Sea discovered the arachnid lurking in their delivery while unpacking the boxes.

RSPCA inspector Zoe Ballard was called out to deal with the animal, but admitted she was not the biggest fan of eight-legged creepy-crawlies.

Humdinger of a music study Members of the public are being asked to take part in a real humdinger of a university project. A University of Aberdeen lecturer is looking for people to help him – but it is not their time, expertise or even their money that is being sought.

Dr Suk-Jun Kim wants them to volunteer their hums, as part of a community music project. He hopes to collect hundreds of hummed tunes, with each one representing a childhood memory of the individual contributor. The lecturer in electroacoustic music and sound art says: “Humming is a personal, intimate act. Usually when people hum, it is either to themselves or perhaps to a loved one, maybe to soothe a child.”

Dench brings back M The head of the intelligence service where James Bond works has returned from the dead. Played by Judi Dench, M was killed off in the most recent Bond adventure, Skyfall.

But Dench resurrected the character in a video released yesterday as part of the Weinstein Co’s appeal to the Motion Picture Association of America to change the rating of Dench’s latest starring vehicle, Philomena. The short video opens with Dench in M’s office, saying, “Just when you thought I was dead.”

Who’s nuts?

Authorities in California are looking for the thieves who made off with 63,500kg of walnuts.

The theft, estimated at nearly $400,000, occurred Monday in the small town of Escalon.

Investigators say it was one of the biggest to hit the booming industry. Last month, about 5440kg of walnuts worth $50,000 were stolen from a trailer parked on a highway. This time several truckloads of walnuts were taken from the facility. Authorities say rising prices — about $2 per pound — is what appears to be driving the recent walnut thefts. No arrests have yet been made.

Walnuts are California’s fourth-leading agricultural export.

China remains the world’s leading producer of walnuts. – AP

■ SEARCH WARRANT EXECUTED

Drugs, firearm found in police raid

By Erin TaskEr

erin.t@theguardian.co.nz

Two tinnie houses were searched and a quantity of drugs uncovered, during a police operation in Ashburton on Thursday night.

Ashburton Police CIB detective sergeant Jennifer Hooke said police staff from Ashburton and Christchurch executed four search warrants at different

Ashburton addresses, searching for drugs and stolen property.

Ms Hooke said cannabis was found at two of the addresses searched and both of those addresses had been identified by police as drug dealing premises – or tinnie houses.

The amount of cannabis found at the addresses was unclear.

At the other two addresses

searched, a quantity of stolen property was recovered, along with a firearm.

Ms Hooke said Ashburton police were now in the process of locating and speaking to the occupants of the addresses.

“It is likely charges will be laid in relation to the drugs and stolen property recovered,” Ms Hooke said.

It was not known how many people could end up facing charges in court as a result of the search warrants.

She said the investigation was ongoing and no further information was available at this time.

It was also unclear where exactly the addresses searched were, but police, and a police dog handler, were seen at a Havelock

Street property – a short distance from the Ashburton Police Station - at around 5pm on Thursday evening. They were seen leaving with boxes from the address.

Members of the public also reported seeing police at properties in the vicinity of William Street and Dobson Street, and on Beach Road near the shops.

■ COMMUNICATION AWARD

Tony’s one top talker Former fast talking car salesman turned mayor, Tony Kokshoorn, has been named Communicator of the Year by the Public Relations Institute.

He said he was humbled by the award, which he received at a function in Wellington last night.

“I was up against some of the big boys, including former All Black John Kirwan and New Zealand Federated Farmers boss Bruce Wills,” Mr Kokshoorn said.

The New Zealand title has gone to South Islanders for the past three years; the 2012 Communicator of the Year was Sam Johnson of the Student Volunteer Army in Christchurch, and the year before it was Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker.

The nomination for Mr Kokshoorn cites events he has dealt with as mayor that had a significant impact on his community, including the Pike River Mine disaster, closure of the Spring Creek Mine, the Greymouth tornado that destroyed commercial buildings and houses, and the foundering of a fishing vessel on the Grey River bar with the loss of life.

Public Relations Institute (PRINZ) president Pauline Rose said Mr Kokshoorn was an “ordinary New Zealander” who had represented his district in difficult times.

Borough students have lesson in marae protocol Ashburton Borough pupil Ethan Cumberland-Croton joined more than 80 other classmates at the Hakatere Marae yesterday to gain a further insight into Maori culture.

The pupils took time away from the classroom to get a sense of marae protocol, and took part in a host of workshops to deepen their knowledge on the culture.

The school’s senior pupils also stayed overnight, in what Hakatere Marae committee member Janet Benfell said was the first time primary pupils had slept at the marae.

■ ASHBURTON COLLEGE

New school leaders

By Myles HuMe

Myles.h@theguardian.co.nz

Ashburton College’s Adam Tupper and Sophie Congdon have already forged a strong relationship, but its true test will begin when the duo lead the college next year.

The pair were revealed as the college’s 2014 head boy and girl on Thursday night at their Year 12 prizegiving, rising above four other strong candidates for the role.

Adam and Sophie have been in the same form class throughout

their time at college and admit they have reached a point where they know each other pretty well.

But that relationship is set to be galvanised even further as they represent the needs and wants of more than 1200 pupils at Ashburton College next year.

“I really want to help boost the participation and contribution students have at college. I don’t have too many ideas just yet, but maybe we could look more into what comes out of student council meetings for year nine and 10,” Adam, 17, said.

Sophie, 16, said her plan was to draw from the junior year groups by allowing them to have more of a say in the changes that go on at college.

Adam, a former St Joseph’s School pupil, admitted in his candidacy speech that it did not dawn on him to go for the prestigious role until this year when he realised he needed to give back to the place that has given him so much.

Born in England, Adam moved to Ashburton with his family when he was 10 and soon developed a keen passion for

swimming which he still fits into his hectic schedule today.

Sophie, who moved to Ashburton from Coromandel Area School when her father Grant landed a job at the college, said she has always strived to fulfill a head girl’s role since she was a youngster.

On top of being announced the top academic pupil for the Year 12 group on Thursday, she is a prominent member in the college senior A netball team and enjoys playing the piano.

They will take up their new roles term one next year.

Above - Sophie Congdon, 16, (left) and Adam Tupper, 17, have been announced Ashburton College’s head boy and girl for 2014 this week.

Kelsey’s hard work pays off

By Myles HuMe

Myles.h@theguardian.co.nz

As she left the Ashburton College auditorium overflowing with seven prizes, it was a sure sign Kelsey Campbell was a more than deserving recipient of the Year 11 top academic prize The 16-year-old was yesterday announced the Ashburton High School Centennial Trust Top Scholar Award winner, claiming the most highly sought-after prize in the Year 11 cohort.

For Kelsey it proved a significant stepping stone as she hopes

to one day fulfill a leadership role, much like those who have claimed the top academic prize in years gone by.

Taking home more than an armful of prizes, including the science, English, visual arts and human biology awards, Kelsey, who is originally from South Africa, credited her teachers and tireless work ethic for her 2013 success.

“I wasn’t really expecting to get this at all, this year I’ve just been working really hard and having good teachers really helps,” the former Ashburton

Borough School pupil said.

Although she has two years remaining at college, Kelsey already has an idea of where she wants to go after her schooling years.

“I think maybe one day I could head into the medical profession, my mum’s a nurse and I like the fact that you can help people and make a real difference.”

Fellow classmate Amy White was the recipient of the other major award for Year 11. She claimed the citizenship award for her selfless acts and contribution to the college this year.

■ FESTIVE SEASON

Around the world special Christmas celebration

BY MYLES HUME

MYLES.H@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Christmas celebrations from all walks of life will converge on Ashburton this month, kicking off the festive season with a unique event.

Around The World, organised by the Mid Canterbury Newcomers Network, is bringing its second edition of the event to the Ashburton Trust Event Centre this month and will give various cultures across the district an opportunity to showcase their traditional celebrations.

“Every month we celebrate a different culture in the newcomers network with performances and food, and last year the Ashburton Trust Event Centre offered us the opportunity to celebrate all the cultures at once for Christmas,” Mid Canterbury Newcomers Network coordinator Daria Glesser said.

The event proved to be a success, and this year the November 23 event will see 20 performances from up to 13 cultures.

Ms Glesser said it was important Mid Canterbury held such events as the cultural diversity continues to evolve. Currently, research is being conducted to get a true grasp on how many different cultures there are in Mid Canterbury and how they feel about living in the district.

Ms Glesser said there were still openings for more performances to join the programme, and those interested could contact the newcomers network.

Around The World will be held on November 23, with tickets costing $10 per person or $20 per family.

Around The World committee members met on Wednesday, only weeks away from kicking off the festive season in Ashburton with their cultural celebration.

■ CANTERBURY A&P SHOW

Station workhorses scrub up for annual show

BY SUSAN SANDYS

SUSAN.S@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

With new shoes, sweeping manes and snowy-white fetlocks, the Erewhon clydesdales will be making their way to the Canterbury A&P Show next week.

Station owner Colin Drummond, who has 55 of the grand horses, has been preparing 15 to take to the show.

The horses are being washed, groomed and shod as they move from their day jobs of plough-

ing and sowing paddocks and entertaining tourists.

Their bridles, collars and other regalia will be polished up as well.

“There’s hundreds of hours work in it,” Mr Drummond said.

This week Mr Drummond was shoeing the last three horses for the show, and was very much looking forward to the annual highlight, which featured the biggest line-up of clydesdales of any New Zealand show.

“The camaraderie is pretty

awesome amongst the clydesdales crew, we don’t go anywhere, we just stay there for the whole few days.”

Mr Drummond had horses entered in the wagon and sledge classes, where they would get to show their precision and might, as well as individual horses such as yearlings and two-year-olds in other classes.

He held high hopes for Kara, a two-year-old filly – “a good big bodied mare, that really moves well”.

The Erewhon clydesdales will be swapping their plough for a wagon and competing at the Canterbury A & P Show next week.

■ WHITE RIBBON DAY

Men asked to endorse no violence message

By Sue NewmaN

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Ashburton men are being asked to stand up and put their names on the line as part of a nationwide campaign to stop violence towards women.

White Ribbon day is on November 25 and it will be marked in Ashburton with a march down East Street, followed by an opportunity for men to take a pledge – never to commit, condone or remain silent about violence towards women.

Social worker Evans Chibanguza is one of a team of white ribbon ambassadors working across New Zealand to help raise awareness of the campaign. One of the strongest messages he wants to deliver is that violence against women is no respecter of age, class or race.

“People say it wouldn’t happen in Ashburton. It does,” he said.

As a front line social worker Mr Chibanguza sees first hand the damage a violent male can do to a family. As well as physical violence, abuse could be emotional or psychological such as controlling money, a woman’s time or deciding who her friends should be and isolating them from their families.

“For children in a situation where there is physical violence this is emotional abuse and sometimes an older child can become involved if they try to protect their mother, they may experience physical injury themselves,” he said.

Some children growing up in a violent home would go on to model that behaviour in their own lives because violence became normalised, Mr Chibanguza said.

Children needed to know they could and should talk to someone – a relative or a teacher, if they were afraid and the

community had an important role to play with people speaking out if they were concerned that a woman or children were victims of violence, he said.

“The message we need to get out is that if people know it’s happening or suspect it’s happening, have the tough conversation with the victim or the perpetrator.”

If you were aware of violence in a family but were afraid to step in, then the police should be notified, Mr Chibanguza said.

“The perpetrators have to know that violence is not okay, that it is not acceptable.”

While White Ribbon Day is marked annually, violence against women occurred 365 days a year, 24 hours a day, he said.

Mr Chibanguza will be contacting community leaders to support the pledge and to sign the document on November 25.

■ ROAST BUSTERS

PM snubs radio hosts after spat The Prime Minister says he won’t be appearing on Willie Jackson and John Tamihere’s radio show again this year as pressure mounts on the pair’s bosses to take action against them for their treatment of a young woman on air.

Labour leader David Cunliffe said he would decline an appearance if invited.

It caps off a horror week for RadioLiveparent company MediaWorks as several major advertisers withdrew from the station amid the furore, and the broadcaster lost some of its most popular US television shows.

John Key has appeared on the

John Key

show on occasion but a spokeswoman said he would not appear on the Willie and JT show again this year and no further appearances were scheduled.

Mr Key would continue with his regular interview slot on Marcus Lush’s programme.

Labour leader David Cunliffe

said he would not appear on the show “at the moment”, with some party members unhappy with Tamihere’s comments.

Tamihere is a Labour Party member who has aspirations to return to politics. Mr Cunliffe said whether the controversy would affect his chances of selection as a candidate or list ranking was a matter for the party.

Vodafone, Telecom, Countdown and Briscoes have also followed other advertisers out the door and announced they were suspending all RadioLive advertising. ANZ and Yellow have already withdrawn ads from the station and Freeview

and AA Insurance’s campaigns will no longer air during the Willie and JT Show.

RadioLive yesterday announced on its noon bulletin - just minutes before the start of the programme - that due to advertiser withdrawals, Jackson and Tamihere’s three-hour show would be ad-free.

During the show the two hosts avoided any discussion of the Roast Busters or the ad pull-out.

The presenters sparked outrage on Tuesday with their questioning of Amy, an 18-year-old friend of a Roast Busters victim, which many branded victim blaming.

Inspirational Skype buddies shouted free trip An Auckland girl has come face to face with her best friend in the US after a heart-warming internet campaign.

Auckland teenager Paige Taylor met her best friend Sarah Stump from Nappanee, Indiana, through a campaign dubbed Stay Together run by video chat company Skype.

The girls were both born with part of their arms missing and became friends after their mothers got in touch through I-CAN, the International Child

Amputee Network, looking for someone who could understand what they were going through.

Paige said her mother and Sarah’s became close after exchanging pictures and letters.

Then, after not talking for a few years Paige, 16, said she and Sarah, 15, started emailing again then Skyping.

“We have been so close for eight years, but thousands of miles away from each other.’

Paige said she had been inundated with positive feedback

SALE

after the video went online.

“I’ve got so many people messaging me on Facebook like, ‘oh, me and my mum watched it and we cried’.

“I don’t think there’s one person that has said ‘I haven’t cried’.”

Some of the best feedback was from those who said she had inspired them, Paige said.

Paige said she and Sarah stayed in touch through Facebook daily and had a video chat through Skype twice a week.

Having Skype fly Sarah to New Zealand was like winning Lotto, she said.

“I had no idea that it would be this big and it’s so amazing now.”

They had talked about meeting one day but the cost and distance had prevented them before Skype got involved, she said.

Only months after Skype flew Sarah to New Zealand, they flew Paige to New York to surprise her on a talkshow.

Melting ice means doom for Kiwis Much of northern New Zealand, including Auckland, as well as parts of the South Island would be almost wiped out by rising sea levels if all the world’s ice melted, according to new mapping by National Geographic magazine.

New Zealand would be among many of the world’s countries to see vast amounts of their landscape lost beneath the sea if the polar ice caps melted, the nature publication said.

A huge swathe of eastern Europe, the entire eastern seaboard of the United States, Bangladesh and a large chunk of China would all disappear.

Australia would see the introduction of a new inland sea in its centre, but would lose much of the narrow coastal strip of the east coast where four out of five Australians live, reaching as far round as Melbourne and Adelaide.

A similar, but smaller, body of water would expand across the upper North Island, across Waikato and the Auckland region, the maps show.

Wellington would also be affected, along with the coast south of the Taranaki Bight.

Christchurch and Dunedin would also be under water, with Southland and Stewart Island suffering land loss as well.

■ RESTORATIVE JUSTICE

In brief

Gary helps offenders make amends

By Michelle NelsoN michelle.n@theguardian.co.nz

Restorative justice is by no means an easy option, according to Ashburton’s new Project Turnaround coordinator.

After just three weeks in the hot seat, Gary McIntyre is already comfortable with his new job, which involves managing the district’s highly successful restorative justice programme.

With almost 20 years policing experience in Mid Canterbury, Mr McIntyre is already a well-known figure in the community.

The decision to take on the new role was an easy one. Mr McIntyre had taken a year off, and along with his wife Kate had gone on an “adventure” – when the Project Turnaround job was advertised he was working in the mining industry in Townsville, in far north Queensland.

The couple were ready to come home when the opportunity came up.

“For 20 years it felt like all I dealt with was the worst things that happen in life,” he said.

“Although the reason people come into restorative justice is because something bad has happened, the process gives victims a voice and the offenders a chance to make amends.

“I’ve known about restorative justice for a very long time but I’ve only seen it from the police perspective – which is quite one dimensional.

“Having been in the role for three weeks I’ve realised there is a lot more to it than just asking people to come in for a meeting.”

Mr McIntyre’s training is underway; for the next few weeks he will work with a mentor and attend a course in Auckland before he flies solo in the role, but he said his time with the police had given him a good start.

Dogs dead Two dogs that killed a number of pets on an Ashburton property last month have been euthanised.

Ashburton District Council’s environmental monitoring manager Rick Catchpowle said a dog control officer responded to a complaint laid by guinea pig breeder Sandra Smith, who awoke to find 18 animals savaged on October 21. The dog owners voluntarily surrendered the two dogs, a pitbull and a mastiff cross, and they were subsequently euthanised. They were also served with Infringement notices for failing to keep a dog under control, failure to register a dog and failing to meet menacing dog classification requirements under the Dog Control Act.

Ashburton’s restorative justice programme was one of the first in the country, and has been highly successful in terms of reducing recidivist offending.

While the government plans to double the number of referrals to restorative justice, Ashburton is already operating well above its requirements.

Mr McIntyre expects a wider range of offences will be referred to restorative justice, and the outcomes of the process will be taken into consideration at sentencing.

Because of confidentiality clauses, Mr McIntyre said the public is largely ignorant about the process of restorative justice and the outcomes, and view it was a soft option.

“It’s not a slap on the wrist with a wet bus ticket,” he said.

“It’s very difficult to look the person you have offended against in the eye, and hear how it’s affected them.

“We don’t just facilitate meetings – we talk to offenders about their offending and the harm it causes, and the victims before we even get to confer-

ence – where everyone can have a say. Then the plan is put together – and that is only limited by your imagination. There are so many avenues that can be looked at.”

Plans can include referrals to budget advisory services, alcohol and drug counseling, licensing assessments – but they have to be achievable and realistic.

“The system is set up to be victim orientated but the offender is not left out of the loop – we try to find help for them as well, because we are trying to prevent crime.”

Fletcher Building’s Formica Group has just opened a new factory in China, said to be the largest developed by a New Zealand business there. Mark Adamson, Fletcher chief executive, announced the opening of Formica’s new laminates plant in Jiujiang, a city of about 4.8 million people in the Jiangxi province.

The plant is one of the largest of the American-headquartered Formica and doubles the company’s capacity in China.

Formica has been in China for more than 20 years and last decade, undertook the construction and commissioning of a new plant in Qing Pu, on the outskirts of Shanghai.

200 jobs gone Christchurch-based fishing company Independent Fisheries Ltd has confirmed that it’s closing its Woolston factory next month, with the loss of 200 jobs. Bosses confirmed the worst fears staff have held since the middle of last month at a meeting yesterday.

General manager Mark Allison said the closure is the result of fierce competition in the market from mainly Asian-sourced processed fish products of similar quality at much lower prices. It has caused a sharp decline in sales over the last three years. The market issues were compounded by damage to the Woolston facilities resulting from the Canterbury earthquakes.

Anglers mad at locked lake gates

■ ASHBURTON JPS

New man at helm Don Smyth stepped up to take the president’s role at the Ashburton JP Association’s AGM this week.

Retiring president Heather McKimmie welcomed 60 JPs and partners to the meeting. Her report outlined a full year of achievements, including visits to Canterbury Meat Packers, the SPCA and Drummond & Etheridge building.

“These tours are to promote the work we do as Justices of the Peace, inform Justices of work-site practices and meeting personnel.”

The highlight of the year was the Filipino Experience where the Filipino community put on an evening of their culture and history.

Guest for the evening included vice president for the Royal Federation of JP Association Graeme Kitto, Southern Region representative Bill Saxton and guest speaker Jan Johnson. Jan spoke on her 900km cycle ride in South America over the Andes from Argentina to Chile, Peru and Brazil.

■ MID CANTERBURY WATER QUALITY

Swimming spots under ECan microscope Mid Canterbury has three of the best spots in Canterbury when it comes to quality water for swimming and water recreation this summer.

Environment Canterbury is about to begin its regular summer season water quality monitoring. It will start next week at 51 freshwater and 45 coastal swimming spots across the region.

But it says Lake Hood’s main swimming beach, Lake Clearwater and Lake Camp are among the spots where the best Door Sales Tonight 7.30pm $25 incl Nibbles

water quality for swimming can be found this summer. The other top spots are Mangamaunu, Gore Bay, Motunau Beach, Leithfield Beach, Woodend Beach, Waikuku Beach, Spencerville Beach, Taylors Mistake, Pigeon Bay, Lake Opuha at the dam boat ramp, and Timaru Yacht Club.

However, even good swimming sites should be avoided immediately after heavy rainfall, which can wash contaminants off roadways, gutters and farmed land into the river

or sea and temporarily affect the water quality, according to ECan. As part of its testing at freshwater river sites, the council will also be on the alert for mats of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) species such as Phormidium, which can produce toxins that are dangerous to humans, stock and dogs. There is a greater risk of potentially toxic cyanobacteria mats occurring during periods of low river flow and warm temperatures.

People are warned to look out

for areas of rivers where black cyanobacteria mats are growing or forming scums. They should keep dogs out of these waters and avoid swimming in heavily infested areas. Mats can be attractive to dogs due to their odour and they can cause serious illness or death if licked or ingested.

Staff will take water samples and keep an eye out for cyanobacteria mats each week for 15 weeks. The results are updated weekly on the Environment Canterbury website.

Local anglers are angry about locked gates preventing vehicle entry into Lake Emma.

Tom Judkins arrived at the lake bright and early on Saturday morning, to take advantage of the opening day of the high country fishing season.

“The gates were locked – I was with a couple of elderly gents who couldn’t walk very far, carrying their lunch and equipment,” he said.

Mr Judkins, who has fished at Lake Emma since 1953, said it was the first time he had known the gates to be locked on opening morning. When he left later that afternoon, 18 vehicles were parked outside the entrance.

Some people had manoeuvered dinghies through the pedestrian gate, and managed to get them to the lake, however this raised another issue for Mr Judkins. “What would have happened if anyone got into trouble – there’s no cellphone reception up there, and that lake has claimed lives before. My mate’s father drowned up there,” he said.

The high country lakes are managed by the Department of Conservation. When Mr Judkins called the DOC office in Geraldine, he was told the gates had been locked the gates to protect a recently shingled track around Lake Emma.

However, Mr Judkins said conditions were dry and the track, which is in fact an unformed public road, and was in good condition – and as such open to the public. When he returned to Lake Emma on Tuesday someone had taken the gate off its hinges.

DOC says the gate is now open.

In brief Propeller delay Replacing a propeller which fell off an Interislander ferry during a Cook Strait crossing could take up to nine months, KiwiRail says.

Passengers on Tuesday’s 6.30pm sailing on the trouble-plagued Aratere were told by crew that a shaft had snapped and a propeller had been lost near the entrance to Tory Channel. Interislander general manager Thomas Davis said they were trying to identify the location of the propeller in a bid to recover it. The propeller was worth around $200,000.

Designer recognised A New Zealand designer has been recognised in an international competition with his revolutionary exoskeleton which dispenses with the itchy old plaster cast previously used to heal broken bones. Jake Evill’s 3D-printed lightweight, no-itch nylon cast was one of two runners up in the James Dyson Award global product design competition.

The cast, named Cortex, won the judges’ admiration for its method of production and its clever features.

■ DISTRICT COUNCIL

Technology streamlines consent processing By adopting the latest technology, the Ashburton District Council’s building consent process is becoming a slick, streamlined operation.

In October, the average time taken to process a consent was slashed by six days and that’s thanks to the move to fully computerise the consent process, says council building services manager Michael Wong.

It wasn’t all plain sailing from day one, however.

“The first month we fully used the new processing ap-

proach was September and we had a few teething problems to iron out,” he said.

Further refinements to the process and staff having a better understanding of the new approach saw a big reduction in time in October. For the first six months of the year, the average time taken to process a building consent was over 16 days.

Mr Wong said he was delighted with the results and he believes the changes will make a significant improvement in

the service the building team delivers.

“Obviously every month is different in terms of the number of consents we process and the complexity of those consents but we have definitely locked in a significant improvement in service for our community,” he said.

The council’s next goal is to have all building consents applications processed within the 20 working day legal timeframe.

September and October that took longer than 20 days to process were ones that were processed earlier in the year but only paid for and issued in the last two months, Mr Wong said. “Once we have the last of the older consents issued and out of the system we are confident we will consistently meet the target.”

The change in processing has come at a time when building consent numbers remaining close to historic highs for the year.

Survivor page A new Facebook group aiming to support victims of the Roast Busters has accused Avondale College, where it says many of those involved went, of a lack of action against “rape culture”.

The group calling themselves “SOS: Support Our Survivors” says they are largely composed of current and former Avondale students. Yesterday they posted an open letter to the college saying they could no longer remain silent.

The letter says the school has a “regressive environment that does not challenge rape culture and issues associated with sexual violence”.

ica-May Raukawa is one in a million – literally.

The chatty, lively Ashburton two-and-a-half-year-old is one of what’s believed to be only three children in New Zealand battling a rare and lifethreatening bone disease.

She’s been undergoing intense chemotherapy for much of this year, but you wouldn’t know it if you met her. She’s taken it all in her stride; she doesn’t cry when she’s pricked by needles and will happily go with a nurse to start treatment without her mum or dad – Anna and Brad Raukawa.

Nica-May has Langerhans cell histiocytosis. It’s a bone disease which essentially means her bones try to crack from within and her parents were told that the chances of getting it were four in a million.

Her long journey started with a sore hip. Anna likened it to sporadic, but extreme, cramp.

It came to a head one Saturday in January. Nica-May would be walking or running along and suddenly fall to the ground in pain, screaming for minutes on end. She told her parents her hip was sore.

“I wasn’t initially going to take her to the doctor because it was the weekend,” Anna said. But she did.

“She was fine when we went

to the doctor – she was running around the office. But Dr Holdaway called a paediatrician in Christchurch who said if it happened again, to take her to Christchurch.”

It happened again twice that night so they took Nica-May to Christchurch where they did a blood test, and an x-ray the following morning.

That showed a lesion on her hip; they told the Raukawas it was a hole in her bone and it may just be an infection.

Doctors really had little idea though and a biopsy was performed. The Raukawas knew the outcome wasn’t going to be good, they just had no idea how bad it was going to be.

“They basically kept giving us the cancer talk, without actually saying cancer,” Anna said.

Days later, the doctors were still baffled. They told the Raukawas it was one of five possible things. Anna bit the bullet and asked the doctors directly if it could be cancer. They said “yes”.

When the diagnosis finally came, it wasn’t cancer, but it still wasn’t good news.

It was the rare and life-threatening illness Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH).

It was described to them as being a cell which naturally occurs on the skin, but which in some

cases manifests in the body and because it’s foreign, it attacks. It eats away at the bone. Another mother of a LCH sufferer told Anna that if you peeled back the bone, it would look like porridge.

For Nica-May, the disease had set up at five sites across her pelvis, her ribs and the back of her shoulder.

The pain she’d been getting in her hip, which triggered her parents to take her to the doctor, had probably been her hip bone cracking, Anna said.

News of what was causing their toddler’s pain was scary for the Raukawas, but they’ve fought hard to remain positive throughout and say they’ve had mounds of support from friends, family, their church and Child Cancer.

“The doctors told us what it was, where it was and exactly what they were going to do about it, and answered any questions we had,” Anna said.

“They told us we had to understand that the treatment was probably going to be worse than the disease.”

That’s because the treatment was chemotherapy. Within days Nica-May had had surgery to insert a port-a-cath into her chest, so she could receive chemotherapy and treatment began.

“They told us she’d go bald, they said she would be really

disease

still smiling unwell, that she would be a really different child and that the steroids would make her really difficult – which they did – and she would need to be our main focus,” Anna said.

That was easier said than done. Nica-May has a younger sister, Neilan, who was only 10 months old when Nica-May was diagnosed. Adding to that, Neilan was born almost 10 weeks prematurely and spent the first couple of months of her life in Christchurch Women’s Hospital while her mum lived at Ronald McDonald House.

Just when they thought their young family was set, Anna and Brad were about to face another long, daunting challenge which would see them spend much of their time in and out of hospitals.

After 12 weeks of weekly chemo, Nica-May’s now down to chemotherapy every three weeks, until February. Her latest scan results have been positive and her parents have their fingers crossed that her days of chemo are numbered. Her next scan will be around December and all going to plan, come Valentine’s Day, the gruelling treatment process will be over.

They look forward to the day that they can put the final bead on the string of Nica-May’s beads of courage – beads given

to children undergoing treatment for diseases like cancer to mark events and milestones along their journeys.

The couple know it could be much worse. Every time they visit the child cancer ward at Christchurch Hospital, they see children that they know may not make it. But all the signs are good for their little girl.

“Where she has got it is a miracle, because the one on her hip is massive but it hasn’t leaked into her bone marrow,” Anna said.

They were also lucky in that it had not affected her organs.

Nica-May has had many hiccups along the way. Her immune system has been down and she’s ended up in hospital a number of times after picking up bugs.

On one visit she even required a blood transfusion.

But her health has remained good for the past couple of months and her chemotherapy is now what they called maintenance.

The chemotherapy has started to affect the disease and it has begun shrinking.

“I call it ‘on track’ at the moment. I think they are hopeful that in February it will be it. I don’t know what will happen long-term is because this is only a third phase trial treatment kind

of thing,” Anna said.

Because the disease is so rare, doctors are still learning about it and how to treat it. Many of the nurses Nica-May dealt with in Christchurch Hospital had never even come across it before.

Despite the rollercoaster she’s been on this year, Nica-May remains the happy, bubbly, talkative girl she’s been all of the way through.

“I forget how sick she was really in the start. She got chubby and really emotional, but she’s definitely a miracle,” Anna said.

“She doesn’t cry for needles; she watches them putting the needles in and she will say ‘you’re going to get the sauce?’.

“Sometimes she will even go into the treatment room to get hooked up without me.”

Anna and Brad attend the Ashburton New Life Church and they’re grateful for the support they’ve received from their church family, and all of their family and friends. People are constantly telling them that they’re praying for Nica-May. Anna and Brad, too, pray for their children every day and although it hasn’t always been easy, they try to remain positive.

“You could be all ‘woe is me’ about it and have a pity party, but it won’t achieve anything,” Anna said.

John Smitheram

BY JONATHAN LEASK

JONATHAN.L@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Aorangi were the narrowest of runners-up at the Freyberg Masters at the Coringa Golf Club in Christchurch yesterday.

The Aorangi team featuring Ashburton’s Robbie Bell and Tinwald’s John Smitheram won their first match on the final day,

PIPPED! but then lost 2-3 to Auckland.

Aorangi had been handed the opportunity to win the tournament after Northland had started the day undefeated and had one hand on the trophy but stumbled to Otago 2-3 in their final match, having to wait in the clubhouse to see what team would win the title instead.

In the morning round Aorangi recorded a 4-1 win over Waikato, with Smitheram and Bell both having wins, which moved them to the top of the table on individual wins and meant they were a chance at the title heading into their final clash with 10time winners Auckland, a team that had struggled all week.

Robbie Bell

Bay of Plenty went into the final round 0.5 behind in third and had the tough task of taking on Southland, who had started the week unbeaten until back-to-back losses on Thursday derailed their chances.

Bay of Plenty came away with a 3-2 win which was enough to stop Aorangi from taking the

win. All Aorangi required was a win and they fell short, with Bell completing an unbeaten week in the process.

Aorangi had earlier beaten Hawkes Bay 3.5-1.5, lost to Northland 2-3 on day one before wins over Poverty Bay 5-0, Canterbury 4-1, Otago 3-2 and Bay of Plenty 3.5-1.5.

Arsenal to test its mettle

By Tom Williams Buoyant Premier League pacesetters Arsenal will look to deal a potentially crushing blow to Manchester United’s slowburning title defence when they visit Old Trafford for a seismic showdown on Sunday.

Arsenal’s momentum appeared to be dwindling after they lost consecutive home games to Borussia Dortmund and Chelsea, but they roared back to defeat Liverpool 2-0 in the league last weekend before becoming the first English team to win away to Dortmund in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Having won eight and drawn one of their nine league games since losing to Aston Villa on the season’s opening day, they travel to Manchester knowing that victory would leave them

United striker Wayne Rooney poured scorn on Arsenal’s championship credentials this week, saying that their recent title challenges had “faded away”, but the London club’s midfielder Aaron Ramsey says his side have nothing to fear from the 20-time champions.

“Absolutely not. They have had a bit of a rough start, but they have overcome that now I

think,” said the Welshman, who took his tally for the season to 11 goals with a headed winner at Dortmund’s Westfalenstadion.

“They have had a few good results in the league and will be getting their confidence back up, but we are really confident ourselves. Our away record has been really good, so hopefully we can continue building on that.”

United saw a run of four consecutive wins come to an end in a 0-0 draw away to Real Sociedad on Tuesday, but they are seeking to prolong a sequence of eight matches without defeat in all competitions.

Chelsea and Liverpool will both expect to eat away at Arsenal’s five-point lead this weekend, when Jose Mourinho’s side host West Bromwich Albion and the Merseyside club welcome Fulham to Anfield.

Mourinho has declared that Eden Hazard will return to his squad after the Belgian attacking midfielder was left out for Chelsea’s 3-0 win over Schalke in mid-week after reportedly missing a training session.

Liverpool, meanwhile, can once again call upon England right-back Glen Johnson after he missed the defeat at Arsenal due to an infection in his jaw.

Fresh from reaching the Champions League knockout phase for the first time after a 5-2 win over CSKA Moscow, Manchester City visit Sunderland on Sunday.

SET OF SIX Get wiggling

Getting down

The Wiggles shocked the world with their bright, coloured skivvies when they formed in 1991 and now they have penned a song titled USA Tomahawks Shock the World.

The quartet - only one original is still wiggling after the other three originals retired last year - posted the song on YouTube this week and it has been a sensation. Turns out Blue Wiggle, Anthony Field, is a friend of David Niu, who has been played a key role in popularising the sport in the US but they stop short of saying the Tomahawks will beat Australia in the quarter-finals. Surely if they did that Hollywood would get in on the act.

The bond between players at this World Cup has been noteworthy, but the Kiwis and French took it to a new level last weekend. Soon after New Zealand beat France 48-0, the players visited the home dressing room for a couple of beers and, as so often happens, one thing led to another. “I came back from the press conference straight into what I thought was a nightclub,” France coach Richard Agar was quoted as saying. “But a very smelly one full of naked blokes.”

Mountain man In the music video, The Wiggles called for Joseph Paulo’s face to be carved onto Mt Rushmore. Paulo has registered four try assists in the World Cup, joint top in the video according to statistics provided

by Opta. New Zealand prop Ben Matulino made 208m against France last weekend, which was well short of the 325 Konrad Hurrell made for Tonga, but the most at this World Cup without making a clean break.

Maybe an image of his face could be carved onto the hills above Lower Hutt, where Matulino hails from.

Taking flight Few people expected the US to last long in their first World Cup, least of all tournament organisers who booked them on a flight out of England one day before the final game in their pool between the Cook Islands and Wales. They had been at odds of 90-1 to make the quarterfinals and their success has even made the New York Times. What has made it even more remarkable is the fact coach Terry Matterson took over the job only three weeks ago and had to Google most of the players to learn about them.

Rooney plea England are in disarray, what with one player dismissed and another withdrawing from the squad for personal reasons and now forward Ben Westwood has appealed for help from Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney. Westwood needed 15 stitches to a head wound in the 28-20 defeat to Australia, which came on top of the nine he needed in Warrington’s Super League grand final loss. It prompted him to appeal to Rooney to borrow the skull cap he used after cutting his head. “The latest cut goes right in to the middle of my head,” Westwood told local reporters. “So, if you’ve still got the headband Wayne, give us a shout.”

Keeping cool The English press can be savage at times, and a number of them have dined out on the off-field offerings of the England side that started with Gareth Hock’s expulsion from the squad for breaking team protocol.

It has been a tough time for coach Steve McNamara but he offered a unique response when asked how he relax ahead of tomorrow morning’s (NZT) crucial match against Fiji. He said he would “go home and read the press. It chills me out”. It’s a bit different from the many others in England who have said it leaves them cold.

Fiji captain Petero Civoniceva fully expects England will reach the Rugby League World Cup final. Fiji will tackle England in their final group clash, in Hull tonight, and Australia’s most capped forward knows exactly what to expect after watching some of the English talent star in the 2013 NRL season.

“Seeing what the Burgess brothers have done this year in the NRL and Sam Tomkins and the other great players they have within their team, I feel that they are definitely going to be featuring in the final,” said Civoniceva, who made 45 appearances for Australia. “It is going to be hard to contain the great players that they have but I think they will be up for some big games leading up to the final.”

Kiwis hit drug hurdle

By Michael Brown World Cup organisers could prevent Thomas Leuluai from playing in the tournament if he receives a drug approved by Drug Free Sport NZ but prohibited by the UK Anti-Doping Agency.

Leuluai injured his groin in the team’s first training session after arriving in the UK and, while scans have cleared him of major damage, he missed the Kiwis’ opening two Cup games.

He was a late call-up to play Papua New Guinea this morning (NZT) after training fully yesterday (he was being reassessed this morning before the game) but the Kiwis want to see if they can accelerate his recovery.

They applied to the anti-doping agency to use prednisone, a synthetic corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and help with pain management, but were turned down and again on a second appeal.

They have since applied to Drug Free Sport NZ for permission to administer the drug but could be prevented from using it by World Cup organisers or risk Leuluai returning a positive drugs test.

World Cup spokesman Mar-

tin Johnston said the UK agency was employed by Rugby League World Cup 2013 and they take their lead from UKAD, which follows the World Anti-Doping Agency code.

“We can confirm that the request was made to the UK Anti-Doping Agency and it was turned down and that an appeal was made and that was turned down as well,” Johnston said.

“But we are aware that New Zealand are seeking clarification so we are looking into it.”

The Kiwis were led to believe, however, the treatment would be approved if Drug Free Sport NZ gave its blessing.

“He’s a New Zealand domiciled player so we can go to Drug Free Sport NZ and make an application,” Kiwis doctor Simon Mayhew said. “They might agree with UK Anti-Doping.

“I think there’s a reasonable chance they might accept it, that this is a reasonable and safe treatment and is not going to give him some advantage over his opponents.

“The [tournament’s] medical director was surprised it was turned down. He said if you get approval from a national antidoping agency, then he would accept that.”

Thomas Leuluai: Vital part of the Kiwis’ defensive unit.

Time is the best healer for the injury - osteitis pubis - but time isn’t something the Kiwis have a lot of.

The 28-year-old utility is a critical member of the Kiwis’ World Cup defence and they want him back on the park.

They are mindful that he hasn’t played since the Warriors’ final game of the NRL season on September 7 and would need to know he could last a game once the tournament hits the knockout stages next weekend.

Prednisone is not the last option open to the Kiwis, although possible treatment includes the

unorthodox.

“There are a couple of other medications we could consider that are a bit more far-fetched,” Mayhew said. “I have talked to an English football league doctor who sees a lot of it and there’s a platelet blood injection that could help. It hasn’t hit the literature yet, so we will see.

“Relative rest is the main thing.”

The Warriors will be watching developments with interest, because they won’t want to be without one of their key playmakers when the new NRL season kicks off in March. - APNZ

Kangaroos coach Tim Sheens says his players can’t afford to slack off against Rugby League World Cup whipping boys Ireland, warning one bad game could be enough to lose a spot in his side. Australia are expected to run out big winners in their final group game in Limerick tonight, with Ireland conceding 72 points in their opening two games - more than any other nation. Nonetheless, Sheens is treating the hosts with respect and believes intense competition for places within his best 17 will ensure there is no complacency from the tournament favourites.

“Guys can’t afford to play poorly in any Test match, let alone as the competition goes through and we’re looking for our best team,” Sheens told AAP. - AAP

Scotland downs US Scotland dedicated their latest Rugby League World Cup victory to veteran hooker Ben Fisher after his career was brought to a shattering halt before kickoff in yesterday’s pool match against the USA. Fisher, who had planned to retire at the end of the tournament, tore a calf muscle in the warm-up at Salford and, after being helped from the field in tears, was forced to watch on crutches from the sidelines as the Bravehearts came from 8-0 down to win 22-8. “We knew it was Ben’s last game and we’re devastated for him,” Scotland coach Steve McCormack said of Australian Fisher, who has been playing in the UK Super League since 2004 after starting out with the North Sydney Bears.

Another family affair They’re room mates at the Rugby League World Cup, now twins Josh and Brett Morris have a chance to prove they should be inseparable on the field for Australia. In a tournament littered with sibling combinations, the Kangaroos are getting in on the act with the 27-year-old brothers named to play side-by-side in Saturday’s clash with Ireland in Limerick. Canterbury centre Josh will line up inside St George Illawarra winger Brett for the third time in the green and gold.

Australia have won both previous matches in which the brothers played next to each other, a fact the duo won’t let Kangaroos coach Tim Sheens forget.

In brief Changes for Maori There have been six changes to the New Zealand Maori All Blacks starting side for the second match of their North American tour against USA on Sunday. Ash Dixon comes into the side to replace the injured Hika Elliot with Shane Christie and Blade Thomson also joining the forwards. The backline has been reshuffled with Ihaia West earning a starting spot at first five and Kurt Baker and Matt Proctor coming onto the wings.

The team beat Canada 40-15 in the opening match of the tour. The second and last match of the tour kicks off 1pm NZT at PPL Park in Philadelphia.

- NZH

Crucial in the crunch Being 110kg with a low centre of gravity has helped. So, too, has regular yoga and a dedicated rehabilitation regime. But the biggest factor behind Ma’a Nonu’s remarkable ability to avoid serious injury is luck. He is the indestructible All Black. Second-five is a wretched place for the battle-shy: it’s one where the collisions are mainly head-on and the vehicles predominantly big rig with revs on the engine. There is no shortage of casualties, but hardly ever Nonu.

Since making his test debut in 2003, he’s thundered into the biggest and best for 85 tests. His value to the All Blacks is almost impossible to overstate. Tomorrow he will be first and foremost the get-out-of-jail-free card for the All Blacks. When there is nothing on, static ball that leaves little option, Nonu will crash on to it and inevitably take his side over the gainline.

- NZH

Piutau ‘a natural fit’ In 10 years with the All Blacks coach Steve Hansen reckons he has seen three broader groups of players. The first are those who come into the squad having looked the goods and then never come to grips with the demands of test football. The second are those who just survive initially only to improve with time until they become quality performers. The third, the rare group, are those who immediately fit in and make an impression straight away. Charles Piutau belongs to the third group.

Every time he has played he has excelled. He has looked every inch the test player to the extent that he’s starting tomorrow’s clash with France ahead of Cory Jane. - NZH

Test teams: France: Brice Dulin, Yoann Huget, Florian Fritz, Wesley Fofana, Maxime Medard, Remi Tales, Morgan Parra; Damien Chouly, Wenceslas Lauret, Thierry Dusautoir (c), Yoann Maestri, Pascal Pape, Nicolas Mas, Benjamin Kayser, Yannick Forestier.

Reserves: Dimitri Szarzewski, Vincent Debaty, Rabah Slimani, Sebastien Vahaamahina, Antoine Claassen, Jean-Marc Doussain, Camille Lopez, Gael Fickou.

No nervous nineties for DC

BY PATRICK MCKENDRY For Dan Carter, it’s time for a little reminiscing.

The major milestone of his 100th test will be talked about at length next week but there is no escaping the significance of tomorrow morning’s test at the Stade de France either, and his increasing nervousness suggests he for one has not.

This is the ground where he announced himself as a firstfive on the world stage for the first time in 2004.

Selected at No10 by Graham Henry, the pressure was on Carter to adjust to the role in only his third appearance there for the All Blacks after moving from second-five, and he duly delivered, scoring 23 points in his team’s 45-6 demolition of France, then the Six Nations champions.

“Back in 2004 it was a big game for the All Blacks, it meant a lot and we were really happy with how we played,” he said.

“For me personally, I had only played about two test matches at first-five, I was pretty nervous and wanted to play well.

“A few years down the track and [there is] a similar feeling.

With the season I’ve had, I can’t wait for Saturday night and the challenge ahead.

“Some games I get more nervous than others but I love those nerves. It means I’m ready for a big match.”

Calf and shoulder injuries have limited Carter’s test ap-

pearances to only four this year.

It has been a frustrating time for him - it’s not the season he wanted as he counts down to his impending sabbatical.

The injury issue also has connections to this ground for it was here in 2009 during his first sabbatical that Carter suffered his Achilles tear when playing for

Perpignan. Since then a growing file of groin, hamstring and calf problems, plus a broken hand, have contrived to test his patience to the limit.

That’s where the nerves come in.

“I haven’t had a chance to play.

“When you’re lacking game time and have had the injuries that I’ve had, it’s about not wanting to let the

team down. They’ve built some awesome momentum throughout the year and I’ve been part of it in stages but not a lot.

“It’s more for personal reasons, wanting to get back to the level I know I can play at and am happy with.”

The hand problem meant Carter played only the third test against France in June, the at-times untidy victory in New Plymouth in which the 31-yearold was critical of his own performance.

His Rugby Championship appearances were limited to the Argentina match in Hamilton and the Springboks test in Auckland where he was poleaxed by Bismarck du Plessis.

Last week’s run against Japan in Tokyo represented his return as Aaron Cruden and Beauden Barrett enjoyed their share of the spotlight in his absence.

Both are staking increasingly valid claims for Carter’s jersey.

However, Carter’s presence is a reassuring one for Ma’a Nonu, who must quickly gel with new centre partner Ben Smith in order to see off the threats of impressive opposites Florian Fritz and Wesley Fofana.

“I’ve had the pleasure of playing next to Dessie for a long time,” Nonu said.

“It’s comfortable in terms of knowing each other and reading [each other] but you can’t get too comfortable.

“It’s all about trust, really, and it’s good to see him back.”

It’s a sentiment matched wholeheartedly by Carter.

Smith confident of defensive ability

BY PATRICK MCKENDRY One of the curious things about this All Blacks team about to play France in Paris is that while it features some vastly experienced players, including four over or very near the 100-cap milestone, the backline has never played together. The French will probably sense vulnerability here.

Left wing Charles Piutau is starting only his third test, right wing Cory Jane hasn’t played one this year, and centre Ben Smith is so new to the role he once again found himself

explaining to the media that he is indeed prepared for the challenge after moving in one spot from the flank as Conrad Smith’s replacement.

Outstanding on the wing for the All Blacks this year, Ben Smith has struggled to find his feet in the more complicated midfield position. He was undone a few times by the Wallabies in Dunedin and was quiet even against Japan in Tokyo last weekend.

While the French halfback/ first-five combination of Morgan Parra and Remi Tales is also untested, the midfield of

Florian Fritz and Wesley Fofana have the ability to ask serious questions of the All Blacks defence in general and Smith in particular.

Coach Steve Hansen said Smith’s tendency to drift on defence late in games was something the player was trying to fix.

Smith, meanwhile, accepted he could be targeted.

“They might do,” he said.

“The only thing I can do is prepare as well as I can for this game and I’m pretty confidence I can do a good job there and I’m looking forward to the challenge.

“I’ve just been making sure that defensively I’m making good reads and that sort of thing.

“It’s one area that I’ve probably worked on in the last few weeks especially because it’s a big change up from wing.

“It’s just a totally different role. I quite enjoy it, you’re a lot more involved defensively.

“It’s just working with the people around you a lot more.

“On the wing at times [you’re only] working with the guy inside you and the last man. I’m pretty confident I can do a good job there.”

Coach resigns The man who headed Wanganui’s Heartland Championship rugby side to its second-worst national provincial season since 1985 has resigned. In a press release the Wanganui Rugby Football Union said Steelform Wanganui coach Karl Hoskin brought a written letter of resignation with him to a special meeting of seven members of the board on Thursday night. The inquisition into what went wrong in the 2013 Pink Batts Heartland campaign was far spread as no less than nine senior players, four team management personnel and all three coaches - Hoskin and his deputies Darrell Hoskin and Danny Rolls - had been interviewed.

Regarding whether Hoskin jumped before he was pushed, union CEO Dale Cobb would not comment if the letter was handed over at the beginning of the meeting or at the end.

Trio front again for Heartland XV

BY JONATHAN LEASK

JONATHAN.L@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

The Mid Canterbury trio have retained their starting spots for the second New Zealand Heartland XV match against New Zealand Marist in Timaru today.

New Zealand Heartland XV coach Kurt McQuilkin has made just two changes to the starting XV selected to play their final match of a two-game internal tour.

Mid Canterbury captain Jon Dampney will again start at number eight in the forward pack that features both changes.

West Coast hooker Troy Tauwhare will start in the front row and swaps places with South Canterbury’s Nathan Tubb, who moves to the bench.

The other change has Wairarapa Bush lock Lachie McFadzean make way for North Otago’s Eric Duff, the unlucky forward to miss out on a place in the 22 on Tuesday.

Wairarapa Bush winger Cam-

eron Hayton, a late replacement in the squad who was also left out of the 22 on Tuesday comes onto the bench for North Otago’s Lemi Masoe as the only other change to the squad.

Halfback Will Mackenzie and wing Dwayne Burrows will start as the entire backline have retained their starting spots from the side that blitzed the New Zealand Defence Force 60-34 in Methven on Tuesday.

The Heartland XV’s eight tries to four win over the combined Defence Force services, that had taken out wins against Northland XV and NZ Police in recent weeks, left McQuilkin satisfied with the way the team performed.

“I’m pretty happy with the way they went and the way they set targets,” McQuilkin said.

“Marist will be different and tougher, they will have a pool of talent from ITM Cup unions and top club sides so I’m expecting them to come out firing.”

There will be some familiar faces in the Marist side, selected from the 24 Marist clubs around New Zealand, as the Mid Canterbury trio will come up against team-mate Tukulua Tolu.

Marist also features players from the bigger unions, and have proven a tough opposition with the Heartland XV winning the fixture 15-10 in Auckland last year, but Marist had won the previous three encounters 15-14 in Pukekohe in 2011, 31-22 in Wanganui in 2010 and 23-11 in Masterton in 2009.

McQuilkin was happy enough with the first outing but knows the side will need to step up to finish on a high.

“Our guys will need to step up defensively, and I’m looking for them to be more aggressive in line speed and attack.

“The boys have had a taste of Heartland XV rugby and they’re enjoying the opportunity to fly the flag for their Heartland unions.”

New Zealand XV:1 Ralph Darling (North Otago), 2 Troy Tauwhare (West Coast), 3 Matt Fetu (South Canterbury), 4 Eric Duff (North Otago), 5 Nic Cranston (Wanganui), 6 Riiki Waitoa (East Coast), 7 Peter Rowe, captain (Wanganui), 8 Jon Dampney (Mid Canterbury), 9 William McKenzie (Mid Canterbury), 10 Tim Priest (West Coast), 11 Whaimotu CraftChemis (East Coast) , 12 Fa’aitu Tuamoheloa (South Canterbury), 13 TK Moeke (East Coast), 14 Dwayne Burrows (Mid Canterbury), 15 Michael Tambour (Horowhenua-Kapiti).

Reserves: 16 Nathan Tubb (South Canterbury), 17 Shaun McDonough (Wanganui), 18 Lasa Ulukuta (Wanganui), 19 Alan Monk (West Coast), 20 Andrew Stephens (Buller), 21 Glen Walters (Wairarapa Bush), 22 Cameron Hayton (Waiararapa Bush).

The curtain raiser to the Heartland XV and NZ Marist match pits a NZ Marist Southern Region Under 13 Primary Schools team against a Northern region opposition. Ashburton Celtic has supplied a player in Jabe Settle and the coach, Warren Mackenzie.

Joe Schmidt had his eyes on Australia and New Zealand when he announced his first Ireland squad to face Samoa at Dublin’s Lansdowne Road tomorrow morning. Though the Kiwi-born Ireland coach could call on six 2013 British and Irish Lions in a strong starting XV, he left three more on the replacements bench, including skipper Paul O’Connell, and omitted Racing Metro playmaker Jonny Sexton altogether. While Samoa are ranked ahead of Ireland on the IRB world rankings, Schmidt refused to force O’Connell and Sexton, as well as Cian Healy and Sean O’Brien, to play three strenuous Tests in as many weeks with the Wallabies and the world champion All Blacks both due in Dublin later this month. Schmidt was adamant Sexton would be ready to face Australia and New Zealand. - AFP

Azzurri smell blood Australia have never lost to Italy in 15 rugby internationals and never suffered nine Test defeats in the one calendar year. But the wounded Wallabies are under immense pressure to avoid disaster as they confront an improved Italian outfit smelling blood in Turin. The confrontational Azzurri have the wonky Australian scrum in their sights and aim to drain what little confidence is left in the Wallabies by rocking the set-piece from the outset at Stadio Olimpico on Sunday morning (AEDT). Ewen McKenzie’s men have suffered a 3-8 win-loss record in 2013 and one more loss sets them up for the worst season since the game went professional in 1996.

New Zealand have a near-unassailable lead at the summit of the International Rugby Board’s rating system, but Lancaster believes South Africa can be caught.

Wellington in charge A third straight half century from opener Michael Papps put Wellington into prime position at the halfway mark of their Plunket Shield match against Central Districts at the Basin Reserve yesterday. After Mark Gillespie (677) took the final four wickets to dismiss the visitors for 289, Papps (62) and Stephen Murdoch (59no) put on a century for the second wicket to help their side to 149-2 at stumps.

England short of a gallop England are at risk of going into the first Test in Brisbane significantly underdone, after rain in Hobart served as a major hindrance to their Ashes preparations. Star players Graeme Swann, Kevin Pietersen and Stuart Broad haven’t played a first-class match since August. Several others haven’t had the chance to get anything meaningful out of the tour matches in Perth and now the one in progress against Australia A. Yesterday was another day to forget for England, after they were ridiculed for a dossier of dietary demands leaked to the press. Compounding the issues for England in Hobart is that construction at the ground has meant there are no indoor facilities available for players to train in the wet.

Warne on attack Shane Warne says Michael Clarke has work still to do on improving team harmony in the Australian dressing room. Warne says Clarke is without peer as the best tactician in world cricket, however he concedes his “best friend” isn’t without fault as a leader.

The outspoken legspinner also admitted he’d been too harsh on England captain Alastair Cook earlier this week, but still said Kevin Pietersen or Graeme Swann would do a better job skippering the side. Cook’s lost just one match from 16 Tests as skipper, while Clarke has lost six Tests against England and India already this year. Warne said Australia’s team culture had already shown signs of improving since Darren Lehmann took over as coach but there was work still to do. - AAP

Tour ‘sobering lesson’ The quicker New Zealand forget their trip to Bangladesh the better.

Then again there’s an argument to say they need to remember it for a long time, to feel the hurt of being repeatedly beaten by their hosts, who are clearly improving but equally no South Africa, England or India. Two drawn tests, three ODI defeats before a solitary win in the tour finale, a T20 match on Wednesday night, adds up to a bitterly disappointing return, especially as October 2008 - the last time New Zealand won any match in Bangladesh - became a steadily tightening noose around the team. Captain Brendon McCullum reckoned New Zealand were prepared for the tour. In a classic case of being hoist by his own petard, McCullum insisted before the first test that 2010 “was a good lesson of what not to do.

We were ill-prepared leading up to that.”

Shingle set to fly far and wide

Gravel, gear changes and going fast.

The Ashburton Car Club will be tearing up the shingle in Staveley as they hold their annual Shingle Sprints on Rutherford’s Road today.

Last year 18 drivers took up

the challenge and organiser Shayne Adams expected at least 20 this year, but with entries on the day “you never know.”

For the first time since 2000 neither Richard Bowater nor Donn McLaren set the fastest time at the event last year with Blair Logan, a former Ashburton driver under the Auto Sport

Christchurch banner, setting the fastest time in his Mitsubishi Evo. Logan’s best effort of 1 minute 44.79 seconds was good enough to claim the crown and hold off the regular Rutherford’s Road kings.

Bowater may not been in contention this year with his Mit-

subishi Evo is out of action but McLaren is expected to chase another title.

The racing is scheduled to get under way from 9am with spectators welcome to view from safe vantage points along the course, which is signposted from the Digby’s Bridge turnoff.

Webber sets sights on Le Mans victory Mark Webber has targeted victory at Le Mans as his first priority once he leaves the Formula One circuit at the end of the season.

The Australian Red Bull pilot, who will be linking up with Porsche to race sportscars in 2014, said that he plans to stay with the German manufacturer for a “good few years” in the hope of winning one of the world’s most famous endurance races.

“To put that with the Monaco (victory in F1), that would be nice,” he said.

“Whether one is enough there, maybe I want to grab a few.

“But of course you’ve got to get the first one done, which won’t be easy.

“We’ve got some tough competition.

“So that’s the first goal, to win Le Mans; win that outright, down the road.

“

A cheetah never changes its spots

“And then we’ll go from there.”

Nine-time grand prix winner Webber admitted he will miss driving F1 cars on some of the world’s greatest circuits, but needed a new challenge.

“I’ve got those memories.

“They’re great and I really enjoy having those,” he said.

“But to look at the next chapter, I can’t put my feet out of bed each morning with no super purpose - I still need to do something.

“I can’t turn racing off and just finish.”

One thing he won’t miss is his turbulent partnership with Sebastian Vettel.

Webber said he wasn’t “super surprised” when Vettel, now a quadruple world champion, ignored team orders and overtook him at the Malaysian Grand Prix earlier this year - a move that denied the 37-yearold his maiden race victory of the season.

Asked whether he trusted Vettel if that situation arose in either of the year’s final two events in the US or Brazil, Webber said: “Well not the Malaysia situation, because we know what would happen.

“A cheetah never changes its spots.”

The penultimate round of the season begins on November 17 in Austin, Texas.

Scott setting a torrid pace

BY ED JACKSON Adam Scott has hit the front at the Australian PGA Championship on a day where the Gold Coast turned green to celebrate the Masters champion’s achievements.

The world No.2, who showed off the green jacket he won at Augusta National following his round, holds a two shot lead following the second day’s play at Royal Pines.

Scott shot a solid four-under 67 to move to 10-under overall as he aims to complete the triple crown of Australian major titles following his Australian Masters win last year and the 2009 Australian Open crown.

His round, which was bogeyfree for the second day running, included two birdies and an eagle on the par-five 12th in front of a gallery awash with green as part of a PGA of Australia promotion to celebrate Scott’s major triumph.

“I put a real focus on getting ready the best I could for this event and wanting to play well,” he said.

“Here I am in pretty good shape at the moment ... in with a good chance to win the Australian PGA and that’s what I was focused on.”

Victorian journeyman David McKenzie is in second place after a second round 69 left him on eight-under overall.

The 46-year-old’s position could have been even better without bogeys on the 13th and 18th which cost him a share of the lead with Scott.

American young gun and overnight leader Rickie Fowler began his round with a magnificent 99yard approach on the par-four first hole which dropped in for an eagle.

But the 24-year-old’s bright start wasn’t an indicator of things to come, with four bogeys derailing his round and forcing him to scramble home with a one-over 72.

Fowler goes into day three on seven-under alongside Nathan Green (69) and New Zealand’s Gareth Paddison (67) in a tie for third.

Past Australian PGA Championship winner Peter Lonard (73), looked set to miss the cut, along with Craig Parry (74), James Nitties (71) and Andre Stolz (71).

Michael Sim (75), playing just his fourth tournament of the year, double-bogeyed the 18th to also fall below the proposed cut line.

Success for Art Students

Disney Dream for Tourism Students Demelza Hammond, Kiriane Abel and Emma Bishop are going to Disney World to work in Florida next year.

After studying the Certificate in International Tourism programme this year, their dream has come true.

They’ll work for five months at Disney World beginning in August, and will then have a month off to travel.

This is the second group from Aoraki have been accepted to work at Disney World. Last year’s intake saw Billy McLachlan, Ashlee Quested, Elias Toa and Julie Popoviciu living the dream.

“Aoraki is very proud once again for the work being done with Disney and of the students’ achievements,” acting CEO of Aoraki Alex Cabrera said.

Ms Nichol, Aoraki’s International Tourism tutor, travelled to Disney World earlier this year to visit where her students would be going.

Jill Millington was absolutely delighted when she heard she won the ‘Works on Paper Award 2013’ for her artwork titled ‘Old and Tired’ in the the South Canterbury Art Society 61st Annual Art Awards and Exhibition held at Aigantighe Art Gallery, during October.

from 75 different countries, and live in one of four housing complexes. They’ll work hard, but in terms of personal growth and development it will be incredible,” she said.

Building personality, character and determination to be the best in whatever they choose to do is what Ms Nichol wants from her students.

“It’s my role as a tutor to develop them personally, and this is a great way to extend them.”

Question Our black cat, Roxy, is incredibly needy. She was an abandoned rescue kitten. She is now 15 years old and follows us everywhere we go. Whenever we sit on the couch she jumps on the chair arm and stares at us until we give her a cuddle. When I'm working on the computer she jumps on the table and stares at me for a cuddle. She's always miaowing for cuddles, from first thing in the morning until last thing at night. Our other cat, a tabby, has normal behaviour and does her own thing in between cuddles. How do we get Roxy to give us a bit of space? We hate to push her off, but it gets a bit much all day long.

Be gentle but firm with Roxy, ignore her attention-seeking attempts and give her attention when she is calm and quiet.

Giving in to her demands will just reward this behaviour and serve to increase it. You can still enjoy cuddles with Roxy but when you choose, not when she

Answer The first thing to do is get Roxy checked by a veterinarian - this may involve running blood tests.

Any change in behaviour, particularly in an elderly cat, could be caused by an underlying health condition. If Roxy is in good physical health, then there could be other reasons for her behaviour.

Kittens that have had a hard start in life and that have been separated from their mother at an early age often display behavioural problems and can be particularly demanding.

Some cats are naturally more needy and will demand more attention than others. Burmese and Siamese breeds are very demanding and the kind of behaviour you describe is normal for them!

It is also possible that she is becoming more anxiety prone as she gets older.

The ageing process in an animal's brain can cause their anxiety to worsen.

Cats can also be affected by stress or changes in their environment.

Moving house, different people coming or going in your home, new pets moving into the neighbourhood or even neighbours undergoing noisy renovations can affect a cat's behaviour.

I would recommend keeping a note of when Roxy's behaviour is particularly bad and note down what is happening in the environment at the time, to see if there could be a link.

demands it.

K e e p all routines like feeding the same and don't move furniture around constantly this may help to keep her stress levels down.

Ensure Roxy has a secure place of her own to retreat to, such as a special bed or even a covered box, as cats often feel more secure in a covered area.

If you feel Roxy is stressed or she is becoming increasingly confused, discuss this with your veterinarian, as there are some treatments they may be able to recommend.

OUR VIEW

Anything that helps stop the carnage is good Michelle Nelson CHIEF REPORTER

T

here is no doubt alcoholimpaired drivers cause carnage on the roads, a factor in an average 61 fatalities every year.

Add to that the estimated 244 serious injuries and 761 minor injuries caused by drivers who have been drinking and the cost to the country is high indeed.

Locally alcohol was a factor in three of the six fatalities on Mid Canterbury roads in 2012 and there was a seven-year spike in drink-driving cases processed in the Ashburton District Court.

New Zealand has been well out of step with other developed countries when it comes to tolerating drink driving – it’s not surprising then that new drink driving laws revealed last week, have received widespread support.

From next year, drivers over 20 will have to adjust to the lower legal blood alcohol limit of 50mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood.

Under the new law, drivers testing between 50mg and the current limit of 80mg will receive a $200 fine and 50 demerit points, while those at 80mg and above will face criminal charges.

Drivers aged under 20 will still be subject to a zero alcohol limit.

This will certainly mean a change in drinking behaviour – four to six standard drinks for the average man over two hours, instead of the six to nine currently permissible, and three to five for woman.

The theory is that the ability to make sound decisions has already gone out the window by the time someone is near the 80mg limit.

The Government expects the lower limits to save lives and significantly reduce the social cost of alcohol-related harm from crashes, saving $200 million over 10 years.

Anything that keeps our roads safer for all users should be welcomed.

With reference to the story about the seals and their pups being killed at Kaikoura.

It is absolutely obscene that the two men who battered the seals to death should get away with home detention!

Next time it could be kids or even adults. Our laws are too lenient and need to be made stronger and our judges too soft.

This was a society with no welfare benefits but a steadfast and conscientious effort to provide for children that were their responsibility.

How many feckless parents do not prioritise tea versus cigarettes, alcohol and cars, together with junk food in preference to their children’s well-being?

I would hedge my bets that on a visit to their homes there would be a large percentage.

Please let’s get away from the bleeding heart society and face up to reality.

POLL RESULT Yesterday’s result Q: Should there be more cycle lanes around Ashburton?

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

N

ew Zealand Post is apparently going to shed up to two thousand staff, and probably reduce the number of days on which mail is delivered.

The cutbacks are attributed to a drop in the number of mail items processed, in other words, we not using snail mail like we used to.

Now I plead guilty to having dropped my mail usage. In fact I can only think of one person I write to.

I can remember as a kid we seemed to get dozens of Christmas cards.

Extra cycling posties were put on at Chistmas to handle the flow and many a student of my generation jumped at the chance of holiday work. It was also a chance to get fit at the same time.

But cycling posties will be a thing of the past.

The days when they blew a whistle to signal they had put letters in your box are already long gone.

We don’t know what form the cuts will take in Ashburton and I for one thought that when the Government of the day closed down so many small post offices years ago, there wasn’t much further they could go.

But given a good hard look, it seems there is.

I think back to the summers in the 60s and 70s. We were lucky in that our grand-dad had a bach at Diamond Harbour.

We spent a lot of the summer there. Even back that far; there were no house-to-house mail deliveries.

We had to call in at the post

office to see if there was any mail for us.

Mrs Payne was the postmistress and the post office was in the front couple of rooms in her house.

If her husband wasn’t about, she had to drive the local taxi as well, which meant she had to shut up shop for a while and be the taxi driver.

If a telegram came for someone (because nobody I can think of there had phones), Mrs Payne would write their name on a blackboard and put it on display at her front gate.

The post office was also the social hub of Diamond Harbour.

There was always someone ready for a chat and Mrs Payne knew all of the regular visitors, and on the first visit of the season would ask by name how our families were.

Mrs Payne eventually retired and a new post office was built.

It was tiny and never seemed to quite attain the social status or atmosphere of the old one.

Eventually it too closed down.

An awful lot of small post offices closed down about the same time.

There was an outcry across the country.

The main points of the argument seemed to revolve around the severe effect it would have on community members, in particular the older people who wouldn’t have easy access to their pension money (the post offices were also the local banks) and mothers with small children.

A trip to Lyttelton or Christchurch was a major undertaking at that time.

It involved walking to the ferry, catching the launch to Lyttelton, and in the case of Christchurch, catching a train to the city, then catching a bus from there to wherever you were bound.

It really was necessary to set aside a whole day.

The closing of the post offices affected dozens of small settlements around the country.

There were several (can’t remember exactly how many) in Mid Canterbury, where to this day there is no public transport.

Given modern transport and communications, in particular the internet, I wonder how many of us will mourn the passing of Post Shops.

We have phones and internet, texting and email.

How many of us care any more?

My Mum and Dad, in their 90s, use the internet, but I’m not sure how widespread that is in their age group.

They certainly haven’t given up hand-written mail like I have.

My main concern is the loss of the social factor, people running into friends from down the street or further afield.

I know from experience how important that was to me.

But it seems that today many of us don’t know our neighbours, so perhaps it’s not important at all.

■ PHILIPPINES

In brief

Killer typhoon slams islands Three people have been killed and seven others hurt as one of the most intense typhoons on record whipped the Philippines, terrifying millions as monster winds tore roofs off buildings and giant waves washed away flimsy homes.

Super Typhoon Haiyan smashed into coastal communities on the central island of Samar, about 600 kilometres southeast of Manila, before dawn yesterday with maximum sustained winds of about 315 kilometres an hour.

“We’ve had reports of uprooted trees, very strong winds ... and houses made of light materials being damaged,” Philippine Red Cross chief Gwendolyn Pang said on Friday afternoon as Haiyan swept across the archipelago’s central and southern islands.

The government said three people had been confirmed killed and another man was missing after he fell off a gangplank in the central port of Cebu.

But the death toll was expected to rise, with authorities unable to immediately contact the worst-affected areas and Haiyan only expected to leave the Philippines in the evening.

“The winds were so strong that they flattened all the banana plants around the house,” university student Jessa Aljibe, 19, told AFP by telephone from the Samar city of Borongan shortly after Haiyan made landfall.

All telephone contact to the island was later lost as the typhoon moved inland.

“We have put rescue teams ad equipment at different places, but at the moment we can’t really do much because of the

Firing squad Vietnam is mulling the resumption of execution by firing squad because of problems getting chemicals for lethal injections.

The Laborer newspaper quoted Minister of Public Security Tran Dai Quang as asking the lawmaking National Assembly to allow the use of firing squads until the end of 2015, along with execution by lethal injection. In 2011, the Communist country decided to switch from firing squads to lethal injection on humanitarian grounds, but only seven prisoners have been executed since August after a long delay as it struggled to obtain needed chemicals.

heavy rain and strong winds.

There is no power,” Pang said.

The Philippines suffered the world’s strongest storm of 2012, when Typhoon Bopha left about 2000 people dead or missing on the southern island of Mindanao.

But Haiyan’s wind strength made it one of the four most powerful typhoons ever recorded and the most intense to have made landfall, according to Jeff Masters, the director of meteorology at US-based Weather Underground.

Haiyan generated wind gusts of 379km/h on Friday morning, according to the US Navy’s

■ WEST BANK

Joint Typhoon Warning Centre.

Masters said the previous record for the strongest typhoon to make landfall was Hurricane Camille, which hit Mississippi in the US with sustained winds of 190 miles an hour in 1969.

The US expert said he expected the damage in Guiuan, a fishing town of about 40,000 people that was the first to be hit, to be “catastrophic”.

Communication lines with Guiuan remained cut off in the afternoon, and the civil defence office said it was unable to give an assessment of the damage there.

In Tacloban, a nearby city of more than 200,000 people, corrugated iron sheets were ripped off roofs and floated with the wind before crashing into buildings, according to video footage taken by a resident.

Flash floods also turned Tacloban’s streets into rivers, while a photo from an ABS-CBN television reporter showed six bamboo houses washed away along a beach more than 200 kilometres to the south.

President Benigno Aquino had warned his compatriots to make all possible preparations for Haiyan.

Who poisoned Arafat? Qantas closes base Yasser Arafat’s mysterious 2004 death has turned into a whodunit after Swiss scientists who examined his remains said the Palestinian leader was probably poisoned with radioactive polonium.

Yet hard proof remains elusive, and nine years on, tracking down anyone who might have slipped minuscule amounts of the lethal substance into Arafat’s food or drink could be difficult.

A new investigation could also prove embarrassing — and not just for Israel, which the Palestinians have long accused of poisoning their leader and which has denied any role.

The Palestinians themselves could come under renewed scru-

tiny, since Arafat was holed up in his Israeli-besieged West Bank compound in the months before his death, surrounded by advisers, staff and bodyguards.

Arafat died at a French military hospital on November 11, 2004, at age 75, a month after suddenly falling violently ill at his compound. At the time, French doctors said he died of a stroke and had a blood-clotting problem, but records were inconclusive about what caused that condition.

The Swiss scientists said that they found elevated traces of polonium-210 and lead in Arafat’s remains that could not have occurred naturally, and that his Arafat’s illness and death was consistent with poisoning. - AP

Qantas will close its heavy maintenance base in Avalon and send the work offshore, but denies the move is part of a long-term plan to shift all maintenance to Asia.

Unions slammed the decision, saying it’s a sign of things to come and that Qantas had treated the 300 workers who will lose their jobs with contempt.

The Avalon base near Geelong will close in March, after a review found there was not enough work to keep the base viable for the company’s soon-to-be-retired fleet of Boeing 747s.

A Canadian bit-part actress barraged Alec Baldwin with lovesick, demanding messages, packed her belongings into a car and showed up uninvited at his homes in Manhattan and the Hamptons, prosecutors said as her stalking trial opened. The case is expected to put the “30 Rock” actor in an unsought role: a key witness against a woman who says she had a fling with him some years ago, which he denies.

Baldwin is expected to testify next week against actress Genevieve Sabourin, whose lawyer says she was merely trying to get answers after the actor lost interest in her.

But prosecutors say Baldwin was alarmed by a campaign of calls, text messages, emails and unexpected appearances by a woman he’d met twice over 10 years.

Workers nailed Young nailgun-wielding construction workers are shooting themselves at an alarming rate, according to a new study. The most commonly hit body part is their hand, according to a report on the study published in the journal Emergency Medicine Australasia. “Whilst nail gun injuries involving the skull, chest and abdomen have been reported, the vast majority of injuries occur to the upper and lower limbs,” says the report. Injuries are not typically life-threatening, but they cause a lot of pain and tissue damage.

The average time taken off work is 15 days. Injuries often occur in a contaminated environment and nails may contain metal barbs or be coated with plastic which can become embedded in the wound, says the report.

Men in their 20s and 30s should never be tested for prostate cancer, say urologists upset by a survey that shows one in 10 men are having their PSA levels checked. “This is entirely inappropriate,” says Professor Mark Frydenberg, vice president of the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand. “It highlights confusion among GPs about conflicting recommendations.”

He says the survey highlights a need for the society, the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia, the Cancer Council and GPs and pathologists to agree on consistent testing guidelines. Prof Frydenberg has no doubt, however, that testing of older men saves lives.

his is our last article in our series on the basics of investing. In the next edition we will cover the market in general.

It is important that your portfolio is regularly monitored and reviewed — a lot of time, thought and effort has gone in to the initial asset allocation. It can be tempting to let short-term market movements dictate a change to asset allocation. However, investing is for the long-term. Ongoing management needs to take into account your circumstances, regular rebalancing of your investments and reporting.

Your personal circumstances will change over time. Part of the ongoing management exercise is to ensure any changed circumstances are reflected in your portfolio. Changes to consider include: income changes and needs, risk tolerance, personal or financial circumstances, investment time frame and insurance needs A periodic rebalance of your investments is important. A rebalance aims to bring the port-

folio back to its initial target weightings. If one asset class performs well and another not so well over a certain time period, the better performing asset will now make up a larger proportion of your total portfolio.

Rebalancing would mean that you sell some of the outperforming asset (take profits) and buy some underperforming asset (at lower valuations). The rebalancing exercise may also look at the investments within each asset class. Over time, individual investments will have variable risk profiles. For example, companies may be losing market share or new technologies or discoveries may propel a company. It is also important to ‘right-size’ the exercise. Transaction costs may

outweigh the benefit of minor adjustments to weightings. In this case some of the rebalancing can be deferred.

Managing the paperwork related to your portfolio can be timeconsuming.

YOUR STARS

by Forecasters

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20) While money, relationship, home and professional matters will all be fighting for your attention this week, there is no urgency on any front.

TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21) The door is open to second chances, especially when it comes to giving unsaid words a voice and for friendship and relationship building.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 22) With the doors temporarily open to second chances on the income, work and career fronts, spend time at the drawing board over the weekend.

CANCER (JUNE 22 – JULY 24) Take time out this weekend to step back from your working week and take a trip back in time down memory lane.

LEO (JULY 24 – AUG 23) There is a chance to take a trip down memory lane over the weekend, with the past a treasure trove of valuable messages and second chances.

VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 23) Jupiter’s first weekend in retrograde motion in a social and serendipitous part of your chart is good for reunions or making up for lost time all round.

LIBRA (SEP 23 – OCT 23) While the Moon will be doing his best to keep a playful vibe in play, this is a weekend where you’ll need to keep your professional and money hats on.

SCORPIO (OCT 23 – NOV 24) A heavy pall of nostalgia is blanketing the whole weekend, creating an opportunity for second chances and a trip down memory lane.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 24 – DEC 21) This is a time for celebrating the past, realising that while you can’t change the past that you can rewrite the tape you play in your head.

CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 20) Neptune’s last weekend in retrograde motion in your communication sector holds the door open to second chances and to giving unsaid words a voice.

AQUARIUS (JAN 20 – FEB 19) There’ll be little chance of keeping your professional and money hats off this weekend, with 20/20 hindsight on both fronts too important to ignore.

PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 20) Enjoy the first weekend since late June that you truly take your professional hat off, for this is an opportunity that won’t come around too often.
