p New year celebrations were held at Fo Guang Shan Temple Christchurch on Friday, which included prayer, offerings, striking the Bell of Happiness, wishing cards, Chinese calligraphy and tea experience, as well as a vegetarian food fair that attracted more than 200 people. “After the new year eve prayer, Venerable Jue Xi, the minister in charge explained that in the Chinese tradition, they have a tradition called ‘resigning from the past year’. It means to resign from our bad habits, afflictions and attachments,” says Venerable Zhi Shen. “This year is the Year of the Rat. The rat represents cleverness and diligence, which is something we need to learn. Every new year, we all wish for wealth and prosperity. However, as long as we have compassion and wisdom, we are the wealthy ones. On the new year day, the Water Drop Cafe at the temple opened its door for guests to enjoy vegetarian meals and to welcome in the new year with a lion dance and the Wealthy God to wish for good health and wealth for the whole year.”

NEWS briefs Total fire ban

Fire and Emergency New Zealand has updated its fire season for Canterbury and a Prohibited Fire Season came into effect at midnight on Friday, January 24 and encompasses the land within the Hurunui District, Waimakariri District, Christchurch City — including Banks Peninsula and the Selwyn District. Canterbury had been in a restricted season since the middle of November. A prohibited season means a total fire ban, with any current fire permits for the area suspended from the date the prohibited season started. “The region is very dry.

Toxic algae warning Canterbury District Health Board’s Community and Public Health Unit has issued a health warning after potentially toxic bluegreen algae (benthic cyanobacteria) were found in Selwyn/ Waikirikiri River, downstream of the Whitecliffs Domain near the picnic area.

A single 20 year old Pinus radiata will offset all the greenhouse gas through the life of 1 sheep. 1.5 trees will offset 1 cow’s gas for one year. 5 trees will offset the carbon from 1 car for 1 year.

Plantation forestry is already looking great For the same area of land, forestry provides many more jobs than sheep and beef farming and so boosts rural communities. Forest product exports are earning more than beef and sheepmeat combined. And from much smaller land area. Forests are the best way to hold vulnerable landscapes intact. Our future needs to include more forests Forestry is the key to getting New Zealand to carbon neutral. Though trees alone can’t achieve carbon neutrality for New Zealand permanently, our forests’ ability to absorb carbon is crucial for reaching 2030 and 2050 greenhouse gas reduction goals. That’s why there are incentives to plant trees, paid for by carbon emitters. That in turn is why so many New Zealand landowners are planting forests. Forests and farms are both crucial for New Zealand. Nearly a third of our log harvest is on farms. Let’s work together. We can continue to feed and house both us and our international customers, and fight climate change at the same time.

People and animals, particularly dogs, should avoid the area of the Selwyn/ Waikirikiri River downstream of the Whitecliffs Domain near the picnic area until the health warning has been lifted. There are also other access points along the Selwyn/Waikirikiri River that may have cyanobacteria present. People are advised to check for the presence of cyanobacteria and avoid contact. “The algae look like dark brown to black mats and can produce toxins harmful to people and animals,” says Canterbury Medical Officer of Health Dr Alistair Humphrey. “Exposure may cause skin rashes, nausea, stomach cramps, tingling and numbness around the mouth and fingertips. If you experience any of these symptoms, visit your doctor immediately, also let your doctor know if you have had contact with dark brown/black algal

mats or water in this area.” The Selwyn District Council as the drinking water supplier is following agreed procedures and monitoring their nearby drinking water intakes. “No one should drink the water from the river at any time, even after boiling the water from the river, it does not remove the toxin — therefore, should not be consumed. Pets should be taken to a vet immediately if they are showing signs of illness after coming into contact with algal mats.” People and animals should remain out of the waterways until the warnings have been lifted. Environment Canterbury is monitoring the sites, and the public will be advised of any changes in water quality. For fur ther information visit Environment Canterbury — Swimming Water Quality. ¢

Challenging other brigades u by Ann van Engelen

Members of the Rolleston Volunteer Fire Brigade and their partners donated much-needed blood and plasma to the NZ Blood Service and have put the challenge out to other brigades to do the same.

p Members of the Rolleston Volunteer Fire Brigade have put out the challenge to donate blood and plasma to the NZ Blood Service

“We get so much support from the community that we thought this could be our way of giving back,” says chief fire officer Cam Kenyon. “Some have also chosen to donate plasma regularly and go on the NZ Bone Marrow Donor registry. It is part of the world registry and gives somebody a chance to live or fight a disease. One of our station officers, Phil Glen, participates in the annual Sky Tower Stair Challenge to support a young girl Charlotte who was diagnosed with leukaemia at three years old. “Charlotte recently took a bad turn, and that got us talking about going on the bone marrow register. They test your bone marrow compatibility through a blood test, and it can be sent anywhere in the world if you match someone in need. We can give plasma on a more regular basis, and it is also good for burn victims as well as other medical conditions. “The staff are absolutely fantastic at looking after you when you are

However, we see a lot of need through the fire and emergency service and then recently a family member had a medical emergency, and I realised how important it is to donate. I am happy to do it all the time now. “We have put a challenge on our Facebook page to all the other brigades to donate blood, plasma, or go on the bone marrow transplant register. “Let’s join forces and ensure we have enough blood and plasma for others, both here and around the world. Don’t be shy about it — just do it.” ¢

“There has been a huge response to the Selwyn Libraries’ offer of patterns and the use of its premises and machines to people who wanted to sew and knit items such as joey pouches and mittens for animals affected by the Australian fires,” says Senior Arts, Culture and Lifelong Learning coordinator Hayley Browne. “The idea came after library staff saw online that there were a lot of people wanting to support the animals, but not sure where or how to find the patterns or not sure how to help. We decided to offer the space, printing patterns and resources to support them. We have been overwhelmed by the response locally, nationally and internationally.

“I came up with the idea because living here in Hororata we have an understanding of what it must be like for the Australians at this time,” says Holly. “I wanted to have a way for people to be able to donate, and I connected with the Sydney Rotary Club. We raised more than $2,500 with many people coming especially to donate to the appeal. People sat together under the oak tree with picnic chairs and blankets and there were a lot of older folk from Hororata, Windwhistle and Colgate who came to support us. It was so nice to see.” The food vendors donated 40 per cent of their takings from the day.

“More than 250 items have been made and collected by the libraries, and we are grateful for the support we have had. We even had people in Canada contacting us, and we are very proud of the help people are giving to our Australian neighbours. “We now have enough items and are no longer accepting further donations of material. The articles are being stored ready to transport to wherever they are needed. Any items which are not required in Australia will be donated to other animal welfare groups who have a need for them. We are very thankful to everyone who has been a part of making this community project the success it is.” ¢

Hororata resident and singer-songwriter Holly Kimber along with her band Chilton House, artist Lisa Baxter and the South Street Blues band presented a concert to raise funds to support the Australian Bushfire victims at the Hororata Domain.

“We were given the use of a truck as our stage, and Cindy Driscoll helped us organise the event. We played Abba and Kiwi tunes as well as classic dance party songs. The audience did a lot of toe-tapping for the blues band, and we are really thankful to everyone who came along. “We couldn’t have done it without the band members donating their time. We are pleased it went so positively to help our Australian neighbours in their time of need. “With such short notice, it shows how keen our community is to back charity events. “It shows what sort of giving community we have here in Selwyn.” ¢

School traffic reminder u by Ann van Engelen

The Selwyn School Road Safety organisation is reminding road users that there are 10,000 reasons to be road safety aware and to stay alert as children return to school this week.

p Road users are reminded to stay alert with children returning to school this week

“More than 10,000 Selwyn children headed back to school on Monday. That is nearly 20 per cent of our population on the move,” says coordinator Stephanie Hautler. “We are encouraging everyone to keep their eyes peeled for our young people heading back to school by foot and on wheels. Road safety awareness is an important life skill and starts developing when you are young. Drivers can help by being patient and extra vigilant. We encourage people to take every opportunity to educate children on how to safely cross a road using their eyes and ears.” For those heading to school, there are some travel safety tips such as be bright and be seen. “A fluoro yellow hi-vis makes your child visible in poor weather as well as bright sun. Most schools have them available for free, or a small cost and they really

make a difference. Another idea is to take advantage of the settled weather and be active as a family and walk to school to reduce the traffic chaos at the school gate. Take the opportunity to familiarise your children with the hazards on the route and talk about sneaky driveways and blind corners. “If your child rides a bike or scooter, remind them to wear their helmets, this goes for caregivers too because young people are watching you. If you are pushed for time, park a block back from school so that your child can scoot or walk the rest of the way. It is good for them physically and mentally, and develops their road safety skills and helps with overall congestion at the school gate.” Road safety resources for parents and children are available from the council by emailing stephanie.hautler@selwyn. govt.nz or phoning 03 347 2705. ¢

Regarding novel coronavirus Public health staff are meeting flights from China to actively look for signs of the novel coronavirus and provide advice, information and reassurance to passengers. “The additional measures are being taken following the arrival of the disease in Australia, via flights directly from the city of Wuhan,” says Health Minister Dr David Clark. “The Ministry of Health has been actively responding to the novel coronavirus since January 6 when it first sent out advice to GPs and DHBs. Chinese language health advice cards have also been being provided at the border. “Despite not having had any cases in New Zealand, the ministry has an Incident Control Team in place, and we are sharing information and working closely with international par tners. The government’s Interagency Pandemic Group has also been convened as a precaution, to ensure New Zealand is prepared. Our response has been based on best practice, and in line with World Health Organisation advice. “I am advised that the risk of an outbreak in New Zealand remains

low, but we are increasing our health response at the border as a precaution. Health officials began preparations for placing staff at our major airports last week. It builds on the work of border staff, who have been provided information about preventing the spread of the coronavirus and have been handing out health advice cards to passengers.” Dr Clark took a paper to cabinet on Tuesday, which will make the novel coronavirus a notifiable disease. Both Auckland and Christchurch International Airports will have a public health nurse available to take the temperature of incoming passengers from flights from China who feel unwell. If their temperature is more than 38 degrees, they will be offered further advice and assessment as appropriate. “I want to assure the public that New Zealand is well prepared for these sorts of situations — we are active and alert, but not alarmed.”

p Amelia Williams with Silly Milly the balloon lady at the Springston Picnic in the Park last week

“It was the first of eight community picnics in the park held as part of the council’s annual Summer in Selwyn series of events and activities,” said council Events and Recreation coordinator Lauren Robb. “Community building is a big part of what makes the picnics popular. Every year when we talk to people about why they enjoy the picnics, ‘it creates a sense of belonging’, is always high on people’s responses. “They talk about the opportunity to get to speak to new people and family togetherness at the events. We run them in the smaller towns around the district, and they always enjoy that sense of community. “Local musician Holly Kimber entertained the crowd, which also enjoyed face painting, the antics and balloon creations of Silly Milly the clown, Pedalmania cycles, a bouncy castle and a free sausage sizzle, outdoor games and more. There are activities

for all ages to get involved, and spot prizes up for grabs with coffee available for purchase. “With eight picnics during two months chances are they will be at a park near you.” The remaining Picnic in the Park events will be held at Anderson Square, Leeston on Thursday, January 30, 5– 7pm, Freyberg Domain, Burnham on Thursday, February 13 from 5 –7pm, Springfield Reserve, Springfield on Thursday, February 20 at 5 –7pm, Rhodes Park Domain, Tai Tapu on Thursday, February 27 from 5–7pm.

Flying with the new pro on call u by Andy Bryenton

Time has a way of changing the kind of services which are available door to door. Some we appreciate gaining, like the facility to get an IT expert around when our computers are behaving badly. Others we miss, like old-fashioned doctor’s house calls. Still more are gone with history, like the dunnikindiver, the man who dug new outhouse toilets. Perhaps the newest service available on call is that of the drone pilot. The technology that has enabled these small aircraft to take flight is still advancing by leaps and bounds, tied to improvements in battery design and manufacturing. Moreover, the deft skills and knowledge of new laws required to be an expert with drones are a real commodity. The most obvious use for such tiny fliers is as platforms for cameras. Drone pilots are in big demand with the real estate sector, flying over and around homes to present a spectacular view, or to highlight the picturesque vistas available from the property. Others can be called up to provide coverage for special events; the still camera alone is no longer enough for some wedding planners, who call in a drone pilot to capture a whole new, HD video sample of the happy occasion. Architects and builders may need the skills of a drone operator to get the lay of the land. Information from a drone

can capture contours on camera, or be mated with satellite imagery and sensitive radar or laser radar data to see beneath the surface. It also means that there are drones out there that can probe down to where water waits to be tapped or even assist with the search for precious minerals. Farmers can use a drone pilot’s skills to overfly land, which is set to be repurposed for crops, mapping soil science information on next to irrigation. Vets can scan livestock with a drone equipped with

infra-red to pinpoint illness, or even when it’s the prime time for breeding. At the extreme level, drones are used for law enforcement, search and rescue. Right now, there are only a small number of professional drone pilots, but their numbers are growing through demand. People who have taken to the skies as model aero pilots and model enthusiasts are suddenly in the position of turning their particular skill set into a cash career. ¢

Who are you going to call? Tangled history of calling the pros These days we almost take it for granted that a professional person will be at the end of a telephone line to help us with our problems. Need a plumber, an electrician, a lawyer or a computer repair person? No problem. However, what about the people who designed the phone in the first place? It turns out they could have used some help of their own. Ironically, for a means of communication that today spans the world, the telephone was mired from day one in huge arguments over who was its true inventor. That is largely because it was impossible for far-flung professors and engineers to communicate without the phone itself. A variety of genius inventors were working away on the problem of turning the old morse code telegraph into a carrier of the human voice at the same time, inspired by the old ‘tin can and string’ devices which, in the 1860s, were already called ‘telephones’. Why? They had a Greek name because the concept of two ceramic shells connected with a tight waxed cord was used by the ancient Greeks. Antonio Meucci came up with a phone-like device that almost worked back in 1854. He got some of the fundamentals right but then gave up. In Germany, Johann Reiss created a telephone that worked, but only over a very short wire. He felt it would still

be useful aboard ships or as an intercom in factories. However, his prototype was ridiculed as a ‘toy’ by the professor he showed it to, and he missed his chance. Two Americans, Alexander Bell and Elisha Grey came up with the telephone at about the same time in 1864. Ever since there have been accusations that Bell stole from Grey or vice versa. The final piece of the puzzle was the telephone switchboard. The first of these was constructed literally from junk in New Haven, USA, by George Coy. It cost only $40 and was made of ‘the handles of teapot lids, bustle wire, carriage bolts and scrap wood’. Nevertheless, it enabled people to phone other homes and businesses, where previously the phone had only been able to connect point to point. When Coy released the first phone book, with 50 local businesses inside,

The Tradies’ Little Helper u by Andy Bryenton

Today, there are tradespeople who drive utes, and those who drive vans. It’s a matter of some debate over the beer glasses, come the end of the working week. Cast your mind back not too many years, and one vehicle predominated the tradies’ landscape — the gone-but-not-forgotten panel van. It all began in the USA and Britain after the second world war, when vans were counted as ‘commercial vehicles’ with extra taxes and, in the UK, speed restrictions. Machines like the ‘woodsider’ station wagons of the late 1940s were designed to carry big families but soon found favour with those who wanted to cart ladders, tools and brushes. In England, early panel vans were based on the Morris Minor, and there was even a variant of the

Mini created with a long, panelled back. The modern Countryman is a large and bulbous imitation of this fee-dodging little idea. The term ‘panel van’ referred to the fact that these back sections were made of wood; making them from steel would have contravened the rules they wished to dodge around. However, times and rules changed. The desire for a ute, which was also a practical van, did not. The high point of panel van nirvana came in the mid-

1970s, with the Ford Escort panel van, and a trio of louche characters from across the ditch; the HQ and HJ Holden ‘Sandman’, the XB and XC Falcon ‘Surferoo/Sundowner’ and the rarer Chrysler Valiant Drifter. There was a time when almost any professional you called in New Zealand, from plumbers to electricians to builders and handymen, arrived in the tradestock versions of these vehicles. Those of a certain vintage will remember our police force attending incidents in panel vans before the canopied utes of the late 1990s took over. While surfers and rockers painted murals on the sides of

their panel vans and hung up beaded curtains within, tradespeople used these versatile machines to construct vast swathes of 1970s suburbia in our main centres. The concept faced its death knell down under in 2000, when Holden released a ‘retro nostalgia’ Sandman concept to absolutely no applause, then canned the project. Who knows? One day the tradies’ best friend may ride again. Until then, those with original examples can let them grow in value. A humble Escort panel van can now fetch $15,000 or more at auction; toolbox and chilly bin optional. ¢

Dining & ENTERTAINMENT Fire up pizza perfection Have you joined the outdoor dining trend, and purchased a woodfired pizza oven? Would you like to, but think that crafting pizza better than the pros looks difficult? Relax — nothing could be easier. The secret is in making your own pizza bases, and getting the temperature just right. The other trick is that you’re cooking on the hot bricks of the oven, not the fire itself. Bank up the fire as hot coals at the back, and sprinkle a little flour on the spot where your pizza will go. If the flour burns in a couple of seconds the area is too hot. Wait a while, until it’s just right — a sprinkle of flour thrown in should slowly turn brown. As you wait for the perfect temperature, prepare your dough. I added two teaspoons of yeast and one teaspoon of sugar to half a glass of warm water, then set aside for 10 minutes or until the yeast has activated and begins to foam. Now put the flour and salt in a conical mound on the bench. Make a well in the middle with your fingers, and pour on the yeast water and oil. Slowly add extra warm water as you mix with one hand and add with the other. You will need enough water to fully incorporate the flour. Once the flour is all incorporated knead it vigorously for five minutes.

Cover and rest the dough in a warm place to rise. It should double in size fairly swiftly; when this has happened, knead it vigorously for a minute then divide into three portions, which should similarly be left to rise. Now roll out the dough to fit the pans. There’s no need to try the ‘spin and flip’ trick so beloved of television pizza chefs! Spray down the pans with olive oil and get ready to get creative with toppings. Commercial pizza restaurants have proven that there is no limit to the toppings and combos, which can be added to a pizza. Woodsmoke will infuse a new flavour to many ingredients, however, so you’ll bring out the best in cured meats like salami and prosciutto, smoked chicken and fish. Team up with crumbly feta, roasted capsicum, roasted garlic, blue brie, and of course, lashing of underlying mozzarella for that stringy cheese sensation. A perfect beginning for each base is a thick red sauce fashioned from tomato paste, a little

Auto & Marine

The artist who sketched in steel When the Detroit Free Press compiled a list of the most important artists to ever come out of that prolifically creative city, they could have taken their pick of hundreds of rock, pop, blues and soul singers, writers, sculptors and painters. Instead, after the undeniable talents of Stevie Wonder and ‘queen of soul’ Aretha Franklin, their third placegetter was Harley Earl. Many people have heard of those first two, and hardly anyone outside of the automotive world knows of the third. Earl, however, is responsible for the shape of cars today. He’s the man who turned the ‘model T’ silhouette into the modern auto. Along the way, he ushered in the hard-top sedan, two-tone paint, the concept car, the automotive turbine engine, clay modelling for auto design, disruption camouflage and the Chevrolet Corvette. The son of a coachbuilder (a custommaker of luxury car bodies to fit on prefabricated chassis), Harley Earl had definite ideas of how the future of motoring should look. While cars were ‘bathtub backed’, soft-topped and high, with separate fenders and slab-sided engine compartments, he dreamed of long, low, sleek machines that looked like aeroplanes. When he joined General Motors to overhaul their image, he was derided as head of the ‘beauty parlour’ by the no-frills engineers who ran the industry. That all changed when he asked if he could make a one-off ‘future car’ to show the public. If they loved it, he’d become vice president of the company. If they hated it, he’d drop the idea for good. The 1939 Buick Y-Job was that car, and it caused such a stir that

CASH FOR CARS!

p When other cars looked like vintage ‘boxes’, Harley Earl stunned the world with this Buick, predating the ‘hot rod’ look by 20 years

even the second world war (when Earl developed new, advanced camouflage for tanks and ships) couldn’t diminish the hype. Earl was catapulted to the forefront of design, pioneering fins, covered-in rear wheels, side pipes, wrap-around glass windscreens and chrome on top of chrome. He made cars lower, sleeker, longer and safer with a low centre of gravity. Perhaps his defining moment was the first Corvette, an answer to the sports cars of Europe that won over America. So influential was his legacy that, in 2002, when Buick

wanted to invoke ‘the spirit of American style’ in their ad campaign, they cast an actor as the ghost of Harley Earl, fedora and all. ¢
