“I’ve always said so. I’ve been involved in councils down south and it cuts down on administration costs. It’s much more sensible.”

“I used to live in New Plymouth where two councils were unable to work together. Nelson just is not big enough for two seperate councils.”

“You should promote the region as a whole instead of having two halves.”

“We’re one region and the economy would be more efficient combining them. I would be pro [amalgamation].”

NEWS IN BRIEF

Father fears for kids safety FROM PAGE 1

• Nelson man Roger Neil Taylor became a Member of the Order in the Queens Birthday honours list announced yesterday. Roger earned his award for services to the arts.

• Nelson College for Girls and Nelson College take to the stage for the musical Fame tomorrow night. The show is being held at the Nelson College for Girls Hall from Wednesday through to Saturday night. The shows start at 7pm with tickets available at both schools.

• An Upper Moutere man has been charged with firearms offences following an Armed Offenders Squad call out on Sunday, say police. The incident started about 10pm Saturday when two people visited a Rosedale Rd, Upper Moutere, address. A man at the address asked them to leave and then allegedly threatened them with a firearm, discharging the gun into the air.

“I took my kids for a walk last Sunday and we came across at least a dozen dogs and all of them off their lead. I understand most dogs are pretty safe but I don’t know that, how am I meant to know this dog isn’t aggressive or isn’t going to attack my kids.”

Stephen says Nelson has three zones – where dogs are allowed, where they are allowed but only on a leash and where they are not allowed at all. He says offenders will usually get a warning if it is there first offence but owners can expect a $200 to $300 fine otherwise.

Liam says Nelson dog owners are complacent because there

has not been a serious dog attack in Nelson, but he feels that one is on the way.

“It is only a matter of time.

Dogs shouldn’t be there if it is a no dog area, I wouldn’t have a problem really if dogs were on a leash and were handled but they are running around in a no dog area. It’s totally unsafe, what can I do if my kids are getting attacked by one or two dogs that are large.”

Stephen says council will continue to monitor the problem.

Have your say: Has Nelson got a dog problem and if so does more need to be done to keep them out of ‘dog-free’ areas? Email your thoughts to editorial@nelsonweekly.co.nz.

Date set for amalgamation hearing months of interviews, research and investigation by the commissioners.

It began looking at governance options for the region after a petition by Aldo Miccio was signed by 20 per cent of ratepayers in Nelson and Tasman last year.

If the commission decides

amalgamation should not be explored the idea will be dead for the mean time. If it believes amalgamation could be a better model, ratepayers in both Nelson and Tasman will need to vote it in.

Tasman mayor Richard Kempthorne is opposed to amalgamation.

Window competition kicks off in CBD The great window dress up is on and some Nelson stores have already started.

To celebrate the countdown to the 2011 Rugby World Cup and welcome the four teams that will play in Nelson during the tournament, Nelson businesses have adopted a “second team” and will be showing their support by dressing their windows during the month of June. At the end of the month the business with the best window will win a $2000 advertising prize in Nelson Weekly.

Glen from Glen James Jewellery with his display that overlooks Stores around the city have been getting into the competition with several great displays already up and atTrafalgar St from his second story studio. tracting plenty of attention. Displays must be finished

by June 22, when judging will begin.

Glen from Glen James Jewellers, says he finished his

display on Friday and says it is a great idea for Nelson to show their support for the tournament and all the fans that will visit the region.

While some stores have used national flags for inspiration, TRB’s skate shop, who are in the Australian quadrant, have used yellow and green stock already in the store to show their support for the Wallabies. But say that is only a starter. “We are planning on getting a fridge full of VB in the window and some Australian hats with the corks on them. It will be look awesome by the end of the month,” says owner Deanne Briggs.

The city has been divided into four quadrants for the promotion, each supporting either Italy, USA, Australia or Russia. To find out which team quadrant your business is in visit www.facebook.com/NelsonWeekly.

Nelson City Council staff Kathy Sollly and Cherie Irving have Sally Grant of Bodywise is in the Italian quadrant and TRB’s Matt Duncan and Deanne Briggs are getbeen rushing to get their Russian window on display this week. has already done up her window. ting their window decked out for Australia.

Because you’re different.

We’re different.

The best care is the care that meets your very own needs.

It would certainly be easier providing a fixed set of care services to our residents, but we think it’s fairer if they only have to pay for the services they need. Which is why we do things differently. We tailor our care services to meet the requirements of an individual and we do so in a way that helps them stay independent for longer. It’s an approach that makes perfect sense to us and a world of difference to you.

Why chose the Metlifecare way of doing things?

You choose the care services you need.

We care for you in your own home.

Stay independent rather than dependent.

We have friendly, professional staff.

Graham Drummond, of Atawhai, with his spring loaded chopping board that he has gained a worldwide patent for.

Kiwi ingenuity from local gains worldwide patent Graham Drummond likes a bit of good ole kiwi ingenuity, although for him the process has changed somewhat over the years.

He started with wood and metal as a youngster but when Rheumatoid Arthritis robbed him of his hand strength in his late 20’s Graham was forced to switch from building to designing and is now on the verge of having a patented chopping board he invented mass produced.

Graham says the “simple” idea came to him a while ago but just recently decided to make it happen. It is a normal chopping board with a spring-loaded bar across one edge. Under the bar you can sit the end of a kitchen knife which allows the user to cut with complete control and only a fraction of the strength needed without it.

Graham says he finds the board incredibly useful himself and now that he has gone through a long and complicated worldwide patent process, is ready to take it to the world. “The trick with it is you don’t need a special knife or anything like that and the board can still be used by people who don’t need to use the bar, it is still a good chopping board.”

Graham says the board is particularly useful for elderly, people with arthritis or even children.

“It means you can cut things easily and we all need to cook so it’s something that a lot of people will find useful,” he says.

Graham is hoping to sell the patent to a bigger company to produce after spending almost two years gaining patents, doing most of the paperwork himself. “I’ve become a bit of expert on it that’s for sure, but the internet is a wonderful thing and I’ve been able to sit down at my computer and pretty much figure it all out. But now I’ve done that I don’t really want to spend the 20 years trying to push it and I don’t expect to become a millionaire off it. To be quite honest I’ve got a few other ideas I’d now like to move onto.”

Graham says he hopes to produce a few boards and start selling them to locals before selling the copyright to a larger company. “I get so much use out of it, it would be great if I could help make other people’s lives a bit easier.”

RSA graves get makeover LETTERS A project to tidy up the graves of Nelson’s returned servicemen is on track after careful collaboration between the RSA, cemetery and workers.

The headstones of returned servicemen at Marsden Cemetery had been set in the ground, meaning the headstones would often move and sink into the ground. But Veteran Affairs has come to the party, pouring close to $100,000 into a project to put all the headstones on concrete beams.

Marsden was one of the last cemeteries in the country not to have the headstones on beams.

The project, which is ongoing and won’t be finished for another four years, is a delicate one for contractors with Mike Goodyear of Independent Kerb and Concrete saying staff needed to be briefed before it started.

“It’s a sensitive job, we come along with a wee digger and working amongst the graves so we had a briefing about it and we worked hard to make sure it was done right.”

To break the old concrete off the headstones workers had to dig out the headstone, put it face down on a doubled over foam mattress and carefully break off all the old concrete. The headstones were then reset in the new concrete beams.

Sexton at Marsden Cemetery, Alister Papps says it is part of a wider project by Veterans Affairs to tidy up the area, including building a new wall and seating area.

“We get a visit once a year from Veterans Affairs to make sure it is up to scratch and they have been pushing for beams for years, we are one of the last cemeteries in New Zealand that aren’t on beams. All our headstones were set in the ground.”

So far the entire project has cost close to $100,000 with that figure set to rise.

The latest stage of the project started in February and is now finished until the next wave of funding is secured says Alister.

“It is a work in progress, but we are getting there and it is needed, it’s going to make things a lot easier NEW LOOK: Helping give the RSA sec- for mowing and keeping things level.

TO THE EDITOR

I was shocked to see Pete Rainey appear on this weeks cover (Nelson Weekly, 31 May) attired in a USA rugby jersey.

For four days of the Nelson City Council annual plan submissions councillor Rainey has had his loyal followers parade into the council chambers bagging how much sport was getting in relation to the arts.

In fact Cr Rainey provided his ilk with some figures but forgot to mention sports have to pay for the use of the facilities the NCC provides and that those involved in sport in this region would be ten to one in relation to those involved in performing arts.

It has been a circus with speaker after speaker telling the councillors they only got six lollies in their bag and sport got seven and that’s not fair.

Surprisingly (perhaps not) the Arts fraternity did not offer to get their cheque books out in support of their demands. They just want everyone else to pay for their pleasures. Big voices and deep pockets eh!

Snippets of History The Whangamoa

When the Maungatapu Track was acknowledged to be too steep for a practical road to Marlborough, interest returned to the old Maori track from Happy Valley, over the Whangamoa range to the Collins and Rai Valleys.

James Mackay had explored this route as early as 1867, but with Government funding delays it was nine years before a bridle track was formed, and another nine before the

route was finally opened as a Nelson to Blenheim coach road. In 1885 the route caught the imagination of many Nelsonians who drove their horse-drawn vehicles over that new, narrow, precarious, winding road.

Even three young men on pennyfarthings tackled the mountain.

One crashed and returned to Nelson carrying his bike.

The other two made it to Blenheim in two days.

Nayland College’s German giant wants to lead school haka Hassan Rayan wants to be the first German to lead the haka.

The 16 year-old Frankfurt-born Nayland College lock has caught the eye in the side’s debut Press Cup season with his barnstorming runs and grafting work at the breakdown.

In Nayland’s 17-15 victory over Waimea College Hassan was particularly impressive and backed up another strong performance in its 39-10 loss to Rangiora High School.

Hassan says the win two weeks ago gave the side a huge amount of belief.

“You could see the disappointment in their eyes. I was just amazed we finally won our first game. It was just awesome,” he says.

But with only six weeks left on his 12 month exchange, he his hoping to lead the haka before he departs, and it’s something coach Ant Holder has not ruled out. “That would be fantastic and it’s a memory he will cherish forever. I wouldn’t say no to it that’s for sure,” says Ant. “It’s not really a decision for me to make, it’s for the players.”

his club back home.

The German under-16 international has been playing rugby for two and a half years and his love for the sport drew him to New Zealand. He played a handful of matches for the Nayland College under-18 side last season but has been one of the standouts in Nayland College’s debut Press Cup campaign. “You can see the other teams are better drilled and do this for way longer. I guess it’s the fact that you’re new in the competition.

Our win showed we can do it. We can step up to that level.”

Ant says Hassan’s work ethic and eagerness to learn are his greatest attributes. “If we had 15 Hassans then we’d be right up there, in regards to his energy.”

Forwards coach Kerry Shaw moved Hassan from prop back to lock in the pre-season and it has been a masterstroke move.

Hassan’s goal is to earn himself a professional contract in the future as well as representing the Germany national team. “I thought about going to France, but they speak French, that’s a problem.”

Netball reps perform well at national tournaments The Nelson under-17 and under-15 teams competed well in the Marj Jendon Tournament in Wellington on the weekend.

The under-15 team had powerful performances to record four convincing wins from five.

They defeated Wellington Gold 41–20, Wairarapa Development 50–13, Wellington Talent 50–13 and Kapi Mana 40–28.

Kapi Mana was previously unbeaten and was level pegging until the final quarter when Nelson rattled home a ten goal advantage.

Coach Tish Jamieson said her charges were brilliant, both on and off the court and were a great team unit.

Thirteen year-old, defender Hannah Davenhill has been outstanding, pulling in 15 intercepts over the first two days while Courtney Robinson, who is normally a shooter, has had some commendable performances in the unaccustomed position of goal defence.

Lucy Ingham was superb through the mid court, providing direction while putting in some great feeds to shooters Ellie Bell and Shaun Aindow who worked the circle well.

Nelson’s only loss was against Kapiti – going down 27–35. They lost the first half by eight however they finished strongly, drawing the second half.

The under-17 team looked a little over awed in their first up game against Wellington Black when they were defeated

23–33.

Nelson came out firing on all cylinders against Marlborough, making every post a winning one as they accounted for their neighbours 45–14.

Coach Sam Lowe said it was a great team effort as all ten players experienced court time. The girls gelled to play an excellent full court defence and had great ball speed.

Maddison Billens put in a sterling performance at goal shoot returning a 91 percent goal average - 32 from 35 - while Emese Bismark and Ella Marwick worked hard to ensure an abundance of quality ball.

Goal keep Paige Pointon rebounded strongly while Jordan Webby had a superb game, pulling in an astonishing five intercepts in one quarter. Ashley Laing created valuable turnover ball and drove well through court.

Maddison put in a MVP performance when she put in a flawless performance at goal shoot against Western Wanganui netting 17 from 17. Kelsey Whiting and Rosa Edwards provided the support at goal attack. By applying pressure through court there were numerous intercepts in the 38–28 win.

Although there was considerable ball gained, it was not always converted in the Wellington Gold game. Three of the quarters were tied, however it was just two goals deficit in the second quarter which remained in the 27–29 loss.

Maddison had another fine game shooting 92 percent.

Maddison was again the go to girl in the match up against Kapiti, shooting 10 from 11 in the first half, while Caroline Fergusson did a power of work around the circle edge in the 25–32 loss.

Another great team effort and a lift in stats by Kelsey Whiting and Rosa Edwards paved the way for a 37–28 win over Kapi Mana. Jordan had an outstanding game while Whitney Orange

Deaf rower aims for Olympics Gabriel Callaghan is a young man on a mission.

Like any athlete, he has high hopes of one day wearing the silver fern.

But Gabriel is slightly different to his rowing team mates and competitors. He’s deaf.

But he says this doesn’t hold him back in any way, as rowing is about using your body to move a boat.

There has been one race that the 17 year-old missed though, because he didn’t hear his name being called out. “But I rowed in the next race and used the time from that to compare to the race I missed, so I don’t get affected as much.”

The Stoke resident has followed his mother into rowing and in April returned from a successful Maadi Cup competition.

Gabriel made it into two finals for singles in the Under 17 and Under 18 division. This past season he also won a bronze medal at the South Island Secondary School championships in the U17 four.

Gabriel has been rowing for three years and says he most enjoys the thrill of the race and trying to push himself ahead of other people who have trained just as hard. “The feel of the boat moving in harmony with the body is a glorious feeling during a race.”

The down side to being a rower for Gabriel is the early wake-up call. The Garin College student wakes up at 4.30am so he can get ready, all while he is hungry, tired and “cranky”.

“But it’s not too bad, I know some people who wake up at 3am to get to rowing,” he says.

And losing races isn’t that flash either, according to the teenager.

Some of Gabriel’s team mates are already in England rowing so he now has a goal of doing that too. Gabriel says he also wants to get to the Olympics one day.

Training at Port Nelson and along the Boulder Bank every morning, and a few times after school means Gabriel is on the water around six or eight times a week. But the fortnight before Maadi Cup, his training sessions were bumped up to around 12 sessions a week.

Gabriel says his motivation for rowing is having something in life that he is good at. “Without it, I wouldn’t really have a purpose in my life and I would be bored and unmotivated for everything else.”

Gabriel says his mother has helped him a lot with his sport. She has helped with costs and was an avid spectator, even if the cost to get to the venue and watch was also high. She has also given her son tips from her own rowing career to help him compete better. Gabriel says he also wouldn’t be where he is today without his coaches, who have helped him to use a single scull.

Rowing is a tough sport according to Gabriel, but he also says it’s a great sport. “You can really get fit doing rowing. People should come and give it a try and you will make friends for life.”

GOING TO TOWN: Eliot Smith hits the ball up in the ProLeague Town versus Country match at the Tahunanui Playing Fields on Saturday. The rain-riddled match was won by Town 32-28. This was game one of a three match series. Photo: Phillip Rollo.

Town fight off Country in the rain to take game one The passion of origin took center stage as Town held off a spirited Country 32-28 on Saturday.

Tasman Rugby League’s ProRugby League Town versus Country game was played in a wet downpour at Tahunanui Playing Fields, but it was Tahunanui Tiger’s Simon Duncan who heated the game up with a 20 point contribution in the tight victory.

The match went down to the final whistle with Country throwing a forward pass in the build up to a disallowed try on 80 minutes, to give Town the early bragging rights in the three match series.

Town is a combined representative team made up of players from the table topping Stoke Cobras, Tahunanui Tigers and Victory Vikings.

And while a quick look at the TRL standings would suggest Country, made up of Motueka Tigers and bottom-placed Wanderes Wolves, would be easy beats, they very quickly proved there was a lot more substance as it opened the scoring early in the game with a try by Halley Atama.

But it wasn’t long before Town answered back with a try to Eliot Smith.

The game went back and forth with both sides struggling to complete

sets. Rain continued to play its part in the match, leaving the half time score at 16-12 to Town in an entertaining first spell.

Conditions worsened into the second half. However, Country were fired up and the momentum started to go their way as they took complete control on the scoreboard with a hat trick to Sam Hedges.

But in true ‘Origin’ style, Town answered back with the game’s second hat trick, this time to Simon, who also converted four times in the game. Stoke Cobra’s center Phillip Asi scored a well taken try and after a good break by Hoani Tauwhare and a nice chip through into the corner, Jamein Bristowe went over the line to give Town the lead for the first time in the second half.

There was enough time on the clock for one last attempt as Country were eager for the important win on away soil.

Country looked to have scored a four pointer, but unfortunately for them a call by the touch judge ruled a forward pass and the try was disallowed.

Town managed to hold on by the slimmest of margins and lead the series 1-0.

Game two will be held at the Tahunanui Playing Fields on June 25.

What is the most important thing to do when you want to sell your house?

You need to choose the right agent to work for you. Who you choose to market your property will directly impact on the time it takes to sell and how much money you end up with in your pocket. How your agent markets themselves to you is how they are likely to market your property to prospective buyers. Do they appear professional? Are they knowledgeable? Have they prepared well?

Can they demonstrate success? Are they a clear communicator? Do they offer choices to suit you rather than themselves? And are they excited and motivated about the property and the opportunity to work for you?

If an agent can satisfy all the above questions, has a comprehensive service programme, and is a strong negotiator who will work hard to get you the very best outcome, then you can be confident that your real estate experience will be a positive and successful one. If you are serious about selling call David Canning.

What is a hospital in residential care?

Kensington Court has a hospital unit which allows its staff to provide hospital level care for those clients who need it. Only a geriatrician or the local assessment agency can decide whether a client requires that level of care. Hospital care in residential care is very different from rest home care. It requires higher staffing ratios as staff need to work in pairs to complete cares for the clients. There is no doctor in a residential care facility hospital, but there is a registered nurse on duty as well as care assistants (caregivers). Many clients require the assistance of items like hoists to help move clients from bed to chair and vice versa, safely.

Kensington Court Hospital has large spacious rooms, some with an outside door, and most rooms have a full en suite which is also spacious. The hospital has its own entrance that can be accessed by family and friends. It boasts a large lounge with a dining area at the end of it with a small kitchenette. It also has a quiet lounge which can be used by family or clients of the facility. Come and have a look at what Kensington Court Lifecare has to offer you or your loved one.

Stoke win four out of four Accessman Stoke revelled in the deluge on Saturday with wins in all their senior grades last Saturday.

Stoke showed strength, character, patience and determination as the division one side swept away New World Huia 24-0 at Greenmeadows.

Stoke continue to improve each week as they edge closer to a playoff berth, the win cementing them of a top three finish before the semi-finals.

Stoke struck the only points of the half with a well timed run by Tasman Mako Sione Holani, resulting in a try.

Shaun Begg nailed the conversion.

Stoke were not content with just playing safe secure rugby and forced the pace on numerous occasions, but luckily held strong on defence to deny a resurgent Huia any hope of scoring a try. CJ Webber scored mid way through the second half and a second try to Sione effectively jolted Huia’s momentum. Begg converted all three tries and added a penalty.

Stoke’s division two side kept their playoff hopes alive with an exciting 27-17 victory in against a hearty Collingwood side struggling for numbers, and in front

of Crusaders coach Todd Blackadder. Center Chad Lowrie was again the star of the show, scoring twice.

Jared Haveill, Sami Sami and Craig Groome also scored.

They will need to beat arch rivals Waimea Old Boys this weekend to stay in the title hunt.

Tahunanui Super Liquor Stoke Reds cruised past Rangers 55-8 at Upper Moutere rugby ground.

Thirty-three unanswered points in the second half sealed the victory after leading 22-8 at half time.

Some good forward work against an at times dominant Rangers pack saw the backs finally getting the ball they needed and showed, given an inch, they will definitely take a mile scoring out wide with some impressive skills on a very wet pitch.

Players of the day were Sallyanne Archibald and Tori Hunter. It was a convincing win with both forwards and backs dominating territory and possesion. The girls were pleased to hold Central scoreless after getting off to a flying start.
