■ ASHBURTON REAL ESTATE

Buying a house? Test it for meth

By Colin EngElBrECht Colin.E@thEguardian.Co.nz

Ashburton real estate agencies are seeing an increase in requests for methamphetamine contamination tests in properties.

Jill Quaid, manager of Ray White Ashburton, said there has been an increase in home buyers having the checks run before buying new properties.

“We have seen an increase in home buyers asking for meth tests so we now have a standard clause so people can request a test done beside structural, electrical and plumbing tests,” Mrs Quaid said.

She strongly recommends the tests for peace of mind for new buyers.

She said the new recommendations by the Real Estate Agents Authority are that agencies should use a third party testing service instead of doing it themselves.

“The amount of exposure given in the media has also driven an increase,” she said.

Real Estate New Zealand Ashburton manager Trevor Hurley said they have also seen a similar increase in the number of home test requests.

“We have now included a special clause in all our contracts to do a test for P as best business practice,” he said.

However, no tests have come back with positive results for meth, although the day will come when it does, Mr Hurley said.

Real Estate New Zealand uses an American test which is FDA approved and looks for meth as well as cocaine, heroin, ecstasy and marijuana.

They have also changed all their property agreements to allow their property managers to test for drug use at their rentals at any time.

However, he said, there needed to be proper guidelines in place for what was an acceptable level.

“Until they’re fixed up and we have some across the board regulations it’s all up and down,” Mr Hurley said.

The current guideline limit for meth is 0.5 micrograms per 100cm2 of surface.

Another local agency said meth testing was something that was occurring more often, and they plan a seminar for their staff to inform them about potential risks. This will include police speakers and an insurance company. This agency does not run tests itself, but gives the buyer or tenant an option to have a test done through a third party.

“The issue is that there is no set standard, they don’t have a standard for properties which have had meth smoked in them,” the agency said.

Recently bank notes tested

by Fair Go were found to have anywhere from 0.4 to 0.8 micrograms of meth per 100cm2, which makes them some of the most contaminated notes in the world.

These 18 new New Zealand citizens were welcomed at a citizenship ceremony hosted by the Ashburton District Council on June 30.

Newest citizens welcomed to NZ

By Emma moody

Emma.m@thEguardian.Co.nz

Ashburton gained 18 new citizens on Thursday at a citizenship ceremony held by the Ashburton District Council.

The group hail from all corners of the globe, including the Ukraine, Samoa, Philippines, and Fiji, among others.

Mayor Angus McKay presented each person with a certificate of citizenship and a native New Zealand tree to plant in their back yards.

“As it grows in your yard, you will grow as a member of our community,” he said.

At the ceremony, a video was played, welcoming New Zealand’s

newest residents with Governor-General Sir Jerry Mateparae thanking them for “making New Zealand [their] new home”.

A representative from Ngai Tahu, Jane Kelly, gave a speech in Te Reo and in English to the group.

“Welcome, welcome. Be settled,” she said.

Demolition necessitates a detour Demolition of a building on West Street will mean late night drivers will need to take a detour through central Ashburton on Monday night.

The former Rabobank building, on the corner of West Street and Tancred Street, is set to be brought to the ground – the latest in a string of post-earthquake demolitions which have changed the face of Ashburton’s town centre.

Due to the demolition, the New Zealand Transport Authority (NZTA) is warning the public that State Highway One will be closed to southbound traffic, and detours in place, between 11.30pm on Monday and 5am on Tuesday.

The detour for southbound traffic will be down Havelock Street, East Street and Moore Street, then back on to the state highway.

Northbound traffic will remain on State Highway One, West Street.

Earlier this year the owner of the building to be de-

molished, Don Williamson, confirmed the building would be demolished and a new building would take its place.

Work began on dismantling the roof of the building a couple of months ago.

■ EA NETWORKS CENTRE

Concern over temperatures

BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO,NZ

If air cooling units are not installed in the EA Networks Centre, local users will be turned away and big ticket sports events may go elsewhere says complex manager Steve Prescott.

He’s concerned that after receiving a raft of complaints last summer because of high temperatures in both the pool and court areas, complex owner the Ashburton District Council is not willing to fund units that would keep the air temperature to the recommended 27 degrees

Celsius. “I’m really concerned that if we get a summer like last summer, people are simply not going to come here,” Mr Prescott said.

He’s asked the council for funds and submitted a report giving several options that would fix the problem, but at this week’s council meeting councillors opted to take no action, preferring to monitor the situation over another summer.

That will simply be setting the stadium, staff and users, up for another very difficult summer, Mr Prescott said.

“Complaints have been received from sporting groups and a number of schools. In addition, a number of parents while watching learn to swim classes have felt faint and have said they will withdraw their children from classes over the summer months.”

During a swim meet last summer, 35 complaints were made about temperatures in the pool area.

Since November there were 47 days when temperatures were too high for user comfort, Mr Prescott said.

Stadium staff were already taking all practical measure they could to minimise the impact of high temperatures but Mr Prescott said he was concerned that the heat issue could tarnish the complex’s reputation and limit user numbers and event numbers.

When plans were drawn up for Ashburton’s EA Networks Centre, air conditioning units were part of the mix; when the complex was finished they were missing. Instead of heating/ cooling units, only fresh air units with heat exchangers were in-

stalled. This means that on hot days, hot air from outside the complex is pumped inside; air is not cooled.

Mr Prescott says he’s searched through correspondence and plans and talked with the architects, but cannot find any details of a decision not to install the original units.

“I have no idea why these were taken out,” he said.

An initial assessment puts the cost of improving temperature control in the complex between $300,000 and $1 million, depending on the option chosen.

Grow agency winds down

By Sue NewmaN

Sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

When it axed funding for Grow Mid Canterbury, the Ashburton District Council effectively delivered the economic development agency a death blow.

And just weeks after it decided that it would get more bang for its buck if it spent the $270,000 it granted the organisation each year elsewhere, Grow Mid Canterbury is about to close its doors.

Its chief executive Rob Brawley and his staff are now tying up lose ends and working to ensure other programmes it has been

involved in will continue.

“This is a difficult position to be in but we’re working through our projects,” he said.

The organisation had a staff of three and as well as funding from the council for the district’s economic work, it was funded from several other sources for a range of projects. It also ran a Gateway project which worked with students from Ashburton College and Mt Hutt College as they transited from school to employment.

This project is likely to continue, Mr Brawley said and is likely to be taken up by the colleges.

Relations had been strained between Grow Mid Canterbury and the council for some time but came to a head when the council received a damning report on the organisation’s performance after it had commissioned an independent review.

With the council funding ceasing from Thursday, Mr Brawley said he and his staff were now working through remaining contracts to ensure these had a future.

With its contract with Grow Mid Canterbury at an end, the council is still working through its options for developing a clear

and implementable economic development strategy and action plan said community relations manager Vincie Billante.

“This includes looking at the wide range of activities that council already does to support economic development and to see what else we need to do (if anything).’

In the interim it was looking at some immediate actions, such as getting good economic analysis information that would be useful to businesses throughout the district, to help mitigate any risks during this transition phase, she said.

Celebrating sixty years of wedded bliss By emma moody

Medical call-out The Rakaia Volunteer Fire Brigade responded to a medical call-out at 8.30am yesterday, where a man in his 60s died following cardiac arrest.

Council files go digital Over its life, the Ashburton District Council has generated millions of documents and those, combined with the documents created by its predecessors the Ashburton Borough and County councils, are moving into the world of modern storage. The council is currently digitising its building, resource and property files and this work will be carried out in batches over the next few months. Paper files will be retained, but eventually these will be disposed of and all historic data will only be available in a digitised form.

Keeping fit got dearer Keeping fit at Ashburton’s EA Networks Centre will cost members an extra $2 each week from August 4. The centre is lifting the price of its platinum, gold and silver memberships, a price hike recommended by complex owner, the Ashburton District Council.

Weekly memberships will be $22, $17 and $14 respectively.

After 60 years and two days of marriage, Elizabeth and John Harper are just as in love as they were on their wedding day.

The couple married on June 30, 1956, the same day as Mrs Harper’s parents did 20 years before.

“It blew a nor’westerly in the middle of winter,” Mr Harper said.

“As we were walking out of the church, the wind blew my veil off my head and one of the bridesmaids caught it,” Mrs Harper said.

The couple married 10 days after Mrs Harper’s 19th birthday, in the old St Stephen’s Church.

“We had the reception in her father’s grain shed and everyone danced for a long time after we had departed,” Mr Harper said.

Sport has played a big part in the couple’s lives.

They met at a table tennis club when Mrs Harper was about 17 and have played tennis and golf together, as well as Mr Harper coaching, umpiring and playing cricket and playing competitive squash into his 60s.

A 60th anniversary is known as the diamond anniversary and everyone who reaches it is sent a card from Queen Elizabeth II, New Zealand’s Governor-General Sir Jerry Mateparae and John Key also congratulating them.

Mr and Mrs Harper had three children together, however only one is alive today. They also have five grandchildren and six greatgrandchildren.

Mr Harper said one of their secrets to a long and happy marriage is communication.

of different organisations in our lives, so we would listen to each other’s speeches and say ‘You can’t say that, its slanderous’.

“Most of the time we would say it anyway and we’ve never been on the wrong side of the bench,” he said.

One of the organisations they have been involved in is Save the Children.

Mrs Harper started work with Save the Children after her aunt

suggested she help out in 1969, a suggestion which led to a lifelong involvement and a Damehood.

Mr Harper organised door-todoor collections and fundraisers for 30 years.

One piece of advice the couple would give to anyone trying to make a relationship last is to “never let the sun go down on an argument”.

“Love helps a lot too,” Mr Harper said.

Food Safety Minister Jo Goodhew has acknowledged the 20th Anniversary of the Food Treaty between Australia and New Zealand at a conference in Wellington hosted by Food Standards Australia and New Zealand (FSANZ). “The Food Treaty, implemented in 1996, was an important step towards enhancing trade between Australia and New Zealand, as part of Closer Economic Relations,” Mrs Goodhew said. “It has simplified two-way trade, and exporters on both sides now view each other’s markets as extensions of their domestic markets. She said the treaty also committed both countries to developing the joint food standards code, which underpinned New Zealand’s food safety system.

“Australia is an important trading partner for New Zealand. In 2015, two-way trade of food and beverage between the two countries totalled $NZ4.27 billion.”

■ ASHBURTON COLLEGE

College to review curriculum thoughts. “We’re reviewing all the reasons why. Why we have certain subjects, what skills we teach, what our values are.”

The students were particularly helpful with the survey providing some useful feedback, she said.

“We’ve had some really, really insightful comments from the students.”

Having the college create a graduate profile was recommended by a company last year who visited the school to help them start their curriculum review process.

“It’s the preliminary stages of a wider curriculum review.”

Developing a profile like this is a huge amount of work and has not been done for a long time, but it will enable the school to focus on the college’s aims.

It will also open up opportunities to change the curriculum in the future, if needed, Mrs Pearce said.

The school has been working with Lorraine Pearce from the Ministry of Education to develop the profile and a preliminary version is expected to be completed by the end of this term or the beginning of next term.

Ashburton College has taken a new approach to reviewing its curriculum.

To kick-start the review process the school is creating a graduate profile, which will spell out what they want students to have achieved during their time at the college.

Acting principal Andrea Pearce said in creating the profile, staff have been able to look at what is being taught to students, what experiences they are getting and what they are coming out with at the end of their education.

It will give the school a basis for how they look at what is delivered in the curriculum by studying the academic pathways, personal attributes and the values students leave college with.

“It’s what we want our kids to have achieved by the end of Year 13. This will be used to inform our curriculum.”

To help with this process parents were invited to a consultation evening on Wednesday night and students were sent surveys about their experiences and aspirations. Staff also provided their

■ ST JOHN VOLUNTEER

Jackie’s life now full of purpose

By Colin EngElBrECht Colin.E@thEguardian.Co.nz

Before St John, Jackie Evenblij felt without purpose and past her use-by date.

The 55-year-old mother of four, business owner and volunteer first responder for the Ashburton St John said her work has given her purpose.

Mrs Evenblij said after her children moved out of home she felt she was past her usefulness however, getting involved with St John has shown her anyone can make a difference in other’s lives.

She said she first walked in the door four years ago, when she received a call from St John after filling out an online questionnaire.

Her first experience with the ambulance was attending a fatal car crash where the individual had gone through the windscreen.

This was during an ‘observation’ where volunteers are assessed on how well they work in situations.

Mrs Evenblij could only provide limited help like picking up equipment and carrying a stretcher, but said she already

felt so helpful. Now Mrs Evenblij wants to tell other people her position that people her age are valuable.

“I like to think that if there are any women, any men who feel like they are past their use-by date, they should come in and try,” Mrs Evenblij said.

The ambulance service in Ashburton is in need of volunteers, Mrs Evenblij said they have an entire ambulance waiting to be staffed.

St John will train volunteers free of charge and people do not need to have any medical education to sign up.

The organisation provides a valuable service to the community, with an ambulance called out between 8 to 17 times in a 12-hour shift.

“People don’t actually realise how often we get called out because we only put the sirens on in an emergency,” Mrs Evenblij said.

With over 9000 volunteers, St John also provides Caring Caller, Health Shuttle, St John Youth and other community programmes along with their ambulance service.

Jackie Evenblij’s life is now full of purpose thanks to St John.

Open hat nights a new experience

By Emma moody

Emma.m@thEguardian.Co.nz

The Ashburton Trust Event Centre has opened its doors (and its hats) for the public to experience theatre without the commitment of buying a ticket.

This year, the centre decided to host open hat nights to try and encourage the community to give theatre a go.

An open hat performance does not require the audience to buy a ticket before the show, instead they pay what they believe is “value for money” for the show they just watched.

The latest show to get the open hat treatment was Mr and Mrs Alexander, a show which promised “magic, mind manipulation and misdirection”.

The performance was on June 29 and the centre’s office manager Gudrun Weber says it was a success.

“Some volunteers from the audience helped to make the perceptions and manipulations seem real.

“We would have enjoyed more people to give this show a go but we are very happy with the evening.

“Good to see a lot of younger people as well,” Ms Weber said.

The centre hopes this initiative will bring in people who want to try the theatre experience without spending a lot of money.

Ms Weber said they hope to continue the tradition if this is well received by the community.

“There has been a lot of positive feedback from the public so we hope to carry this on,” she said.

Mr and Mrs Alexander was the third open hat night the centre has hosted and there are two more planned for later in the year.

Four of Ashburton’s brightest stars are heading to Hollywood this Sunday to compete in the World Championship of Performing Arts.

Dubbed “the Olympics of singing, dancing and acting” the competition has teams hailing from more than 60 countries, including a team of about 21 Kiwi performers.

One of the Ashburton members, Annelise Diamond, said although the team is portrayed as one in the opening ceremony, it is not the case.

“We travel from Auckland to LA together and we are put together for the opening ceremony, but then we perform in our solos or our groups. So if you entered as a dance troupe then you would perform as a troupe,” she said.

Miss Diamond has entered as a singer, dancer and actress.

The other Ashburton performers are Jack Bubb, Ruby Donaldson and Brooke Sandys.

Mr Bubb has entered as a singer, actor and pianist, Miss Donaldson as an actress and Miss Sandys as an actress and singer.

The competition runs from July 8 to 17.

Police arrest fugitive The police search for armed fugitive Caleb Kovaleski in Palmerston North suburb of Cloverlea is over.

The New Zealand Police Media account sent the following tweet at 4.24pm: “#BREAKING – Police have peacefully resolved the situation in Palmerston North where a man has been brought safely into custody. More soon” The gunman was taken into police custody at a house on Willowstream Grove.

At least one woman was home at the time.

The house remains cordoned off despite other cordons in the suburb being lifted.

There is a large police presence there and media are not allowed onto the property.

A reporter at the scene said Kovaleski was seen being driven out of the cordon area in a detective’s car.

He was wearing a black beanie.

The man was driven out from the Benmore Avenue cordon.

Kovaleski surrendered himself at 4.15pm, said Manawatu area

commander inspector Sarah Stewart. “I would particularly like to acknowledge the patience, assistance and support of the local community, who have rallied together to support each other and the police while we worked to resolve the situation.

“Our focus will now turn to facilitating the safe return of people to their homes, and on the criminal investigation that will follow.

“This will include ongoing scene examinations at the property involved.”

Police relaxed the Cloverlea cordon around 3pm. Residents on Peters Avenue, Fox Place and Tararua Terrace have been let back into their homes.

However, Benmore Avenue and Herbert Avenue remain inaccessible to residents.

The welfare centre at Cloverlea Tavern on Tremain Avenue is still open for those who need it.

A resident inside the cordon said police were currently entering a property on the corner of Bendigo Street and Rosedale Crescent.

Marae the big winner

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COUNCIL

The roll call of Ashburton District councillors who will make a bid for re-election in October’s local body elections continues to count names in falling numbers.

On Thursday long serving councillor Rod Beavan took the floor at the monthly council meeting to state his intentions – he is standing down.

Mr Beavan cited reasons he described as performance, principles and personal as contributing to his decision to call time on his local body career.

In the urban ward he joins councillors Don McLeod and Darryl Nelson as retirees, leaving just Donna Favel and Rus-

“LOCHLEA LIFESTYLE RESORT IS ALL ABOUT INDEPENDENT LIVING AND HERE YOU CAN DO AS MUCH OR AS LITTLE AS YOU LIKE WHILE STILL ENJOYING LIFE AS YOU NORMALLY WOULD OUTSIDE OUR SECURE ENVIRONMENT”.

Some people believe that to live in a Lifestyle Resort such as ours means losing their independence. This is simply not correct. In our resort you will have your own space without any hassles. You are able to furnish your villa with your own furniture and personal items and decide how you wish to spend your days and with whom. The security of your villa is controlled by you and you should feel at home and absolutely secure in your environment.

Some people are concerned that when moving away from their family it means that no one will be around to help when needed. At our Resort we have built in security measures designed to reduce the worry that often comes from living along. Features are in place to respond quickly in the event that you need someone to help you.

Some people also believe that moving to a place of independent living means saying goodbye to hobbies such as gardening. Our residents will tell you that they are more active now than when they were living alone. Residents are still able to look after their own gardens if they so desire and in addition to this there are numerous other activities that they can pursue.

It is important to note that studies have shown that people who are active and engaged are healthier and happier. Activity programmes give all residents options and choices tailored to their specific needs, desires and lifestyles. They can also reduce the isolation felt when living alone.

Russell Anstiss relaxing in his temporary home while his new house is being built.

How Russell Anstiss b New Zealand’s stationery giant Paper Plus’ had its humble beginnings in a small bookshop owned

by Ashburton local Russell Anstiss. Guardian reporter Colin Engelbrecht catches up with him.

“

If you want to be enthusiastic, act enthusiastic and you’ll be enthusiastic,” the American writer Dale Carnegie said.

That writer is the lifetime idol of Mr Paper Plus, better known as Ashburton local Russell Anstiss.

Mr Anstiss founded the stationery co-operative in 1983, but built his business career from much smaller beginnings.

He was born in Waimate in 1938 and his father was a door-to-door salesman. “He was a real Rawleigh’s Man,” Mr

Anstiss said. “People often say I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth and I inherited my father’s business, that’s not true,” he said.

When the war broke out his family was moved to Ashburton when his father was “man-powered” into help build the watchtower at the airport and later the Burnham Military Camp.

Mr Anstiss attended school but said he never had the brains.

“Children would come into the shop and ask me how many grade exams I did, so I said I sat

out with a Matchbox toy, stationeight, four of them twice and I ery or a new book and thought still haven’t got them,” he said.

became Mr Paper Plus became the most successful book shop in New Zealand,” he said.

The origins of Paper Plus began when Whitcoulls bought out a competitor’s book store and Mr Anstiss realised he couldn’t compete with their buying power.

“We couldn’t compete with them on a level playing field,” he said.

So he got talking with some local stationers and decided to form a co-operative, however the initial reception was not great.

They held a meeting with around 50 businessmen in the

stationery industry and gave a seminar on their plans.

“We were absolutely ridiculed

by New Zealand publications, they said it would be the death of stationery in New Zealand,” he said.

Mr Anstiss called another meeting, this time in Rotorua with only 30 people, and by the end of the day he had four people come up to him with cheques of $1500 each, which was the cost to enter the co-operative.

He became the founding chairman of the stationery co-operative that would become Paper Plus,

and spent the next six months travelling to get people on board.

“I just worked my butt off from one end of the country to another getting people involved,” he said.

They finished with around 160 groups on board and he said Paper Plus is still around that number.

“People were surprised it worked, but it worked because we made it work,” he said.

“Paper Plus has been a massive success.”

Mr Anstiss has been chairman of 30 organisations, committees, businesses and associations dur-

ing his life so far, including the event centre, hearing association and seniors centre.

In 2009 Bevan Stroud sent a letter to Prime Minister John Key recommending him for “an award of national significance”.

“The town of Ashburton has been fortunate to have a person the calibre of William Russell Anstiss for he has lived his life and dedicated his interests to the town and people of Ashburton,” Mr Stroud wrote in the letter.

However, it’s his involvement with the hearing association and

seniors centre that he said gives him the most joy and satisfaction.

“To me it’s the best group in the whole district of Ashburton. I have absolutely no passion for the event centre, but the seniors centre is just absolutely me to a core,” Mr Anstiss said.

Another thing that brings him great joy in life is his grandchildren, of which he has seven.

“Grandchildren are absolutely marvellous to your life, they have parts of me in them, not the naughty bits just the good bits,” he said.

cyclists’ intrepid journey M

ost people celebrating their 66th birthday have a dinner with friends and family. But not Don Morrison, he decided to embark on a cycling trip along Route 66 with his wife Pam on April 5 to celebrate the occasion.

The keen cyclists, who have spun their wheels along roads in New Zealand, Australia, Europe and the US, rode 3701km from the Santa Monica Pier, Los Angeles, to Chicago and drove back.

One of the highlights for Don, other than reaching the end, was turning 66 near Winslow, Arizona, and celebrating with a humble pizza for dinner.

“It was the best trip ever.

“Doing Route 66 when I was 66 was wonderful.”

A stranger they met at the restaurant even secretly paid their bill.

“The people are very friendly

Westerfield couple Don and Pam Morrison have just spent six weeks on the trip of a lifetime cycling Route 66 in the United States of America. Along the way they encountered flat tyres, snow, extreme heat, road-kill snakes and good old American hospitality. Ashburton Guardian reporter Ruby Harfield finds out more. over there, it happened a few times,” Pam said.

The only down side of the day was Don getting two flat tyres, out of only five on the whole trip.

The couple faced other hurdles, including Don being chased by a dog nipping at his heels,

steep climbs, getting lost on one of their first days and weather extremes with snow near Flagstaff and blistering heat in the Mojave Desert.

Flashing lights and sirens one day led the Morrisons to believe they had unwittingly broken the law, but it turned out to be a state sheriff hailing them down with his sirens to have a chat about their trip.

The six-week journey was also, at times, a

physical struggle for the pair who averaged nearly 100km a day equating to about six hours riding. Their biggest day was nearly 200km.

“There were quite a few days when we were exhausted,” Don said.

However, these hurdles were nothing compared to the duo’s struggles while riding through Tornado Alley.

They would look at the weather channel each morning and had to brace themselves for the

possibility of nearby tornados crossing their path.

Luckily they didn’t get caught up in any, but they could feel their closeness with the wind and change in the air. “That was a bit worrying,” Pam said.

They didn’t know what they would have done if a tornado had actually crossed their paths because they would not have been able to escape on their bikes.

“It was a real issue, on a bike you are quite vulnerable,” Don said.

Travelling from LA to Chicago meant they went through mountain passes, deserts, small towns and large cities, making for a very beautiful and interesting trip.

The countryside at times was amazing, but a lot of the time they were passing through deadend towns that looked like they had just packed up and left one day, Don said.

“An awful lot of Route 66 is what I’d call broken hearts and broken dreams.”

With the creation of the interstate highway system many towns are now completely bypassed and have really taken a hit, he said.

Some have bounced back with certain novelties, including one café that offers meals with road kill names such as One Eyed Dog Hit in Fog. The Morrisons were not the only intrepid cyclists on the journey – there were quite a few others, including some Australians and a Dutch couple they met along the way.

The Dutch couple were also cycling the route to celebrate a 66th birthday and camped with the Kiwis one of the nights, sharing stories of their adventures.

The Morrisons only camped two days out of their whole six weeks because the rest of the time they were able to find cheap motels.

The biggest culture shock was probably the coffee (which they reckoned was terrible) and the vast amounts of takeaway food that was the only thing available at most places.

“You don’t go there for the food,” Pam said. Although Don did enjoy some of the many allyou-can-eat buffets they found after a long day’s trip.

The couple arrived home earlier this month, but have not been resting as they embarked on another journey on Wednesday with four other Mid Cantabrians to ride the Tour de France.

“If we complete it this will be our biggest cycling year yet,” Don said.

■ ROWING

Russian crew banned; NZ gets another squad at Rio

Mayfield’s Emma Dyke, pictured with her team-mates on their way to gold at the recent World Rowing Cup in Poland, is preparing for the Olympic Games with her team-mates in Slovenia.

■ ROWING

Hard yards paying off

By James Ford

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

It’s little more than a month until the bright lights of the Olympic Games opening ceremony shine over Rio, and Mid Canterbury rower Emma Dyke fulfils a lifelong dream of competing at the greatest show on earth.

The 21-year-old, who will be part of the women’s eight, is currently preparing for the Games at a four week training camp in Bohinj, Slovenia and is still coming to terms with her selection.

“I am still very excited but still don’t feel like it’s quite real yet,” she said.

“I think I will definitely feel

the nerves as we get closer.”

Dyke and her team-mates will head to Rio on July 27, but before then her gruelling training regime will up its intensity to ensure the New Zealand women’s eight have the best possible chance of medalling at its first Olympics. “(We have) two to three sessions a day mainly of rowing, with two of them a week being a weights session,” said Dyke.

“We have Wednesday and Saturday afternoons off and all of Sunday off.”

The Mayfield sculler believes the punishing schedule is paying off, and is coping well with

the challenging daily routine.

“I think it has gone great.

“I am feeling stronger than ever and am handling the harder training really well,” she said.

With the Games edging closer, one major concern continues to mar its build up.

The Zika virus has caused a number of high profile athletes to withdraw or spend as little time in Rio as possible before August 5.

Despite the scare, Dyke insisted her preparations have not been affected.

“No I don’t have any worries at all.

“We have had all our injections

that you are supposed to get,” she said.

“I have complete faith in what the NZOC (New Zealand Olympic Committee) have done and are doing to minimise our chances of getting infected with the Zika virus.”

Dyke’s family will also be making the trip to Brazil to support her and the New Zealand team on their quest for Olympic glory.

“My mum, dad and younger sister Sarah, and our family friends will be flying over to support me,” she said.

“I am very excited to see them and grateful that they are coming over to support me.”

Tuke and Burling will only settle for gold By dana Johnnsen They’re about the closest thing you get to a sure thing in sailing.

Four-time world champion 49er pairing Peter Burling and Blair Tuke head to Rio as one of New Zealand’s top medal hopes, having not been beaten since claiming silver in the high per-

formance skiff class at the London Olympics four years ago.

In all, Burling and Tuke have amassed 27 straight wins – a run of dominance that is unprecedented for a sport that throws so many variables at competitors from race to race and event to event.

But for them win number 28 is

the only one that matters. Olympic gold.

While the pair are exceptionally gifted sailors, Burling says to stay at the top of the class it takes a lot more than just talent.

“A lot of our sport is about making better decisions than everyone else, from how you set the boat up to what you do out

on the race course,” he says.

“For us that means hours of tuning the boats, learning about the equipment. Once you actually get on the race course you’ve got to sail fast, but also in the right direction, so a lot of time goes into thinking about what best to do in those situations for the risk-reward.”

The New Zealand men’s rowing quad is going to the Rio Olympics.

The Russian crew, which won the last chance regatta in Lucerne, has had a member test positive for a banned substance and been disqualified from the Games.

World Rowing has decided the New Zealand scullers, who finished third at that regatta and missed the Games by 0.86s, will take their place.

The crew of Jade Uru, George Bridgewater, Nathan Flannery and John Storey were recently called back to Lake Karapiro to resume training.

On May 17, Russian stroke Sergej Fedorovtsev provided a urine sample at an out-of-competition test conducted by the Russian Anti-Doping Agency.

Remarkably, given RADA’s circumstances of late, it tested positive for the prohibited substance Trimetazidine on June 16.

The B sample tested positive on June 30.

Rowing New Zealand chief executive Simon Peterson said the crews who had missed Olympic selection had remained prepared for any eventuality.

“We have appreciated the emotional ups and downs as the athletes first missed qualification only to be asked to remain in competition mode,” Peterson said.

“We are hugely disappointed that our athletes found themselves competing against cheats however very pleased that today they have achieved their goal of winning a spot at the Olympic Games in Rio.” The crew had been continuing to train, along with the men’s four and women’s quad, as Rowing New Zealand had not ruled out the possibility of a positive drug test affecting results from the May regatta and the subsequent reallocation of quota spots.

New Zealand will now have 11 of a possible 14 rowing crews competing in Rio. - NZME

They failed to win a game in Europe, bested by Iran, Latvia and world number three Lithuania.

Coach Paul Henare says their first qualifying game against the Philippines next week is occupying all their attention. The Tall Blacks will need to win through four games at the tournament to win an Olympics berth.

The 18-year-old received a basketball scholarship in June, and will head to New Hampshire to study forensic psychology on August 26.

Morrison attended Ashburton College before moving to Christchurch Girls’ High School and has played her basketball for the Canterbury Wildcats in recent years.

But she is now eager to be-

come a Southern New Hampshire ‘Penman’.

After receiving plenty of interest from colleges across the United States, Morrison felt Southern New Hampshire suited her, both on and off the basketball court.

“The location attracted me, and after talking to the coaches everything seemed really good,” she said.

“I’d rather a smaller school with smaller lecture rooms than have thousands of people.”

Morrison said she is now eager to get started stateside and begin her new adventure.

“I’m look forward to meeting

the people and getting close to my team,” she said.

“Getting the whole university experience, it’s a change of scene and something different.

“I’m keen to travel a wee bit too.”

With big changes ahead, the young shooting guard is expecting to miss New Zealand, but hopes a busy schedule will cure any pangs for home.

“I’m going to get homesick I guess, but after a few months hopefully I’ll be too busy,” she said.

“I’ll miss all of my friends and I think food will be a big thing.

“Last time I went there was for

three weeks and I couldn’t wait for a home cooked meal.”

When asked about her goals after University, Morrison was understandably hesitant to give a definitive answer, but with plenty of time and talent on her side there will no doubt be plenty of options.

“At this stage I’d love to stay in the game, but it’s still four years away so I’m not sure what will happen,” she said.

“I’ve thought about playing professional basketball in Europe, but if all else fails I’ll have my degree and I can either come back here or stay in the States.”

Warriors make qualifying offers for Barnes, Ezeli The Golden State Warriors extended qualifying NBA offers to forward Harrison Barnes and centre Festus Ezeli, making them restricted free agents.

The move, which needed to be made by today, means the Warriors can now match any offer made to the pair by other teams.

The Warriors, however, are expected to pursue Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant, who could potentially take Barnes’ small forward position and force him to exit.

Barnes, 24, averaged a careerhigh 11.7 points last season but struggled in the NBA Finals where

Golden State lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Ezeli, 26, has primarily been a back-up centre for the Warriors and recorded 7.0 points and 5.6 rebounds per game.

The Warriors were not the only team to be tinkering with their roster yesterday with Orlando acquiring shooting guard Jodie Meeks in a trade with the Detroit Pistons.

Orlando sent a future conditional second-round pick in exchange for Meeks, who was injured for much of last season and played three regular season games. - AP

Harrison Barnes is now a restricted free agent.

Former Crusaders lock Steve Lancaster took the reins of Netball New Zealand from yesterday while the organisation continues its search for the next chief executive.

Netball New Zealand confirmed its transitional leadership arrangements, with Lancaster, the high performance director, and head of finance and services Jennie Wyllie, jointly appointed in a caretaker role following the departure of Hilary Poole. Poole finished up with Netball NZ on Thursday after three years with the organisation.- NZME

Carey, Stevens make up Wayne Carey and Anthony Stevens have finally buried the hatchet, 14 years after the affair that shocked the AFL. The pair met for 15 minutes on Thursday to break the tension between the two, which had lingered since Carey admitted to having an affair with his teammate’s wife in 2002.

The meeting was set up by board member and former teammate Glenn Archer at Stevens’ request, with the feud between the two having also made the 10-year premiership reunion in 2009 awkward according to reports.

No Ferrari switch Daniel Ricciardo would rather move on. Not from his Red Bull Formula One team, which the Australian is now committed to contractually until at least 2018, but continuing questions about his future and a possible switch to Ferrari. He and the team made clear weeks ago that options had been taken up, but Ricciardo was asked again at the Austrian Grand Prix yesterday to confirm he was staying for the next two seasons.

“Yeah, yeah,” he replied. Asked for more detail, some flesh on the bones, he added: “Every word I say ... one word turns into 10, and then 30 and 50. So, I’ll just leave it at that.” Former champions Red Bull are the only team to have beaten Mercedes this season, although it was Ricciardo’s 18-year-old Dutch team mate Max Verstappen who did that on his debut for the team in Spain in May rather than the Australian driver.

In brief Ticking all the boxes Brad Shields is refreshed, mentally as much as physically, as he contemplates a vital last three regular season matches with the Hurricanes, starting with tonight’s home clash with the Blues in Wellington.

The 24-year-old loose forward was consistency personified for the franchise prior to the June window and he is now ready for the final push in a log-jammed New Zealand Super Rugby conference.

“It’s always a tough one, having a break after gaining a little bit of momentum, but you still have to tick the (training) boxes,” says Shields.

Toddy heading to Reds?

Former All Blacks captain Todd Blackadder has emerged as a hot contender for the vacant Queensland Reds coaching job.

Late last year, Blackadder made it clear this would be his eighth and final season as coach of the Christchurch-based Crusaders before pursuing other ambitions.

It was thought those ambitions were firmly based in Europe’s top competitions but the Munster job he was linked with in Ireland went to South Africa’s quality candidate Rassie Erasmus. Blackadder, 44, is on the short list of seven final contenders for the Reds coaching job.

College fall to UC top guns

By James Ford

James.F@The Guardian.co.nz

Ashburton College 1st XV fell to a 54-10 loss to Christchurch Boys’ High School on Thursday.

Dave McCrea’s side were trail-

ing 19-3 at the interval, but performed well early on in the second half before Christchurch Boys’ piled on the points with four converted tries in the last 14 minutes.

McCrea said he was pleased with his side’s display until the closing stages, but will now turn his attention to next weekend’s clash with Marlborough Boys’ College in Blenheim.

“I was really happy until the last 14 minutes, we were attacking them too before then,” he said.

“We just got a bit puffed, especially the forward pack.”

Win tonight vital for Hurricanes’ chances The Hurricanes have not lain awake at night doing mathematical sums to determine their Super Rugby playoffs chances.

They know that three wins from the final three regular season games will be enough to get them into the playoffs, they know they could probably afford to drop one game and still make it, but any more and the noose will tighten.

So all that means tonight’s home match against the Blues assumes vital importance, after the sweet victory over the Highlanders at the end of May. Lose that, and they will need to lower both the Waratahs and Crusaders away to guarantee their berth as one of the top wildcards.

“Our All Blacks know all about their All Blacks. Our guys know all about their guys,” says Hurri-

canes coach Chris Boyd.

“The Blues are chockful of quality players.

“They are more than capable as a team and as individuals.”

Unlike the Chiefs and Crusaders, Boyd has included all five of his All Blacks in the starting XV. “I don’t think any of them wanted a rest, and we were keen for them to play, so they are playing.”

The burden of driving the game plan and some of the moves was removed from the likes of TJ Perenara and Beauden Barrett early in the week, but only hooker and captain Dane Coles saw extensive minutes in the series against Wales.

As is often the case in the week following the June window, media attention turned to the schedule and the draw, with the general agreement that playing

Canes’ skipper Dane Coles New Zealand sides twice is physically sapping, albeit enjoyable.

Both Boyd and Coles said the draw “is what it is.”

But Boyd answered honestly: “There’s possibly a bigger picture with the conference system. My personal preference would be to play everyone once, but we all know what it is and all just get on with it.”

Reg Goodes will fancy having a crack at new All Black Ofa Tu’ungafasi in the scrums, while the battle between Victor Vito and Steven Luatua, two top lineout forwards, will be instructive.

Japan-bound Cory Jane will have his hands full with Highlanders-bound Tevita Li. Hooker Motu Matu’u broke his arm playing for Samoa, so Ricky Riccitelli will be the back-up rake.

The Hurricanes defeated the Blues 23-19 at Eden Park back on March 11.

The Blues have had their issues, but showed their mettle in a narrow defeat to the Crusaders on May 28.

“Their defence against the Crusaders was awesome. They had good intensity, and we will have to match their pack and intensity,” says Coles.

Cory Jane will be winging his way to Japan after signing a two-year contract with Toshiba but will be back in Hurricanes colours in 2017.

Jane will head to Japan at the conclusion of the current Super Rugby season, where he will join former All Blacks Richard Kahui and Liam Messam as well as Chiefs No 8 Michael Leitch. “I’m looking forward to playing in Japan and to experiencing a new culture and taking on a new challenge,” Jane said. “It was important to me that I honoured the remaining year on my Hurricanes contract and, of course, that I was sure I was doing what was best for my family. To have achieved those things is great.” - NZME

The unlucky Stirzaker hurt his ankle in the final minutes of training on Tuesday and may only return for their final match against the Reds in Brisbane. - AAP

Classy bench line-up The Highlanders will have two All Blacks on the bench for the match against the Kings in Port Elizabeth tomorrow but still have plenty of experience in the side. First fiveeighth Lima Sopoaga and loose forward Liam Squire, who came off the bench for the All Blacks last Saturday night in the test against Wales at Forsyth Barr Stadium, are also riding the pine against the Kings. While the team flew out to South Africa last Saturday, the All Black duo left Dunedin a day later and arrived in Johannesburg midweek.

Tough road for Froome

By Julien Pretot Defending champion Chris Froome looks set for a rocky ride with an army of hungry rivals trying to prevent the Briton becoming the first rider for more than 20 years to retain the Tour de France.

“This is the toughest challenge I’ve faced in my career, to target a third Tour de France,” Froome, who prevailed on the French roads in 2013 and 2015, said.

The 31-year-old will hope that his performances are not scrutinised with the same negativity as last year when he faced a barrage of doping insinuations after

smashing his rivals in the first mountain stage.

Team Sky’s Froome, who won the Criterium du Dauphine warm-up race earlier this month, proved last year that he could be impervious to outside pressure, hanging on to his lead despite the media attacks and those coming from the crowd, which included having urine thrown at him during one stage.

A race that never ceases to throw up controversy will also be keen to stamp out rumours of illegal mechanical assistance.

It is a threat so serious that organisers and the International Cycling Union (UCI) announced

they would use thermal cameras to detect and deter hidden motors.

To help Froome succeed, Sky have assembled arguably the strongest squad around their leader, with Geraint Thomas, Mikel Landa, Sergio Henao and Wout Poels earmarked to protect him in the mountains.

“It’s not just about beating Froome.

“It’s about beating the whole Team Sky,” Tinkoff’s Alberto Contador told L’Equipe.

For the Spaniard, who won the Tour in 2007 and 2009, there will also be the small matter of beating Colombian Nairo Quin-

tana, the best pure climber in the world.

“This will be the best version of Nairo,” Movistar team manager Eusebio Unzue said.

“He’s now more confident, more prepared, with a higher level of experience.

“Now he is ready to win the Tour (after finishing runner-up to Froome in 2013 and 2015).

Other contenders include 2014 champion Vincenzo Nibali and his Astana team-mate and fellow Italian Fabio Aru as well as Quintana’s team mate Alejandro Valverde and former Froome lieutenant Richie Porte of Australia (BMC).

‘America’s Cup without the spy boats’ Cycling New Zealand has unveiled bikes they believe will have a revolutionary impact on the Rio Olympic velodrome.

Since the track team’s two bronze medal haul at the London Games, local investment has helped research and develop sprint and endurance bikes to advance their 2016 Olympics cause.

Working in secret, Cycling New Zealand combined with

High Performance Sport New Zealand, manufacturers Avanti, wheelwrights Southern Spars, aerodynamic experts Kinetic Simulation and Auckland University’s wind tunnel in an effort to produce track bikes capable of delivering gold.

Expect fingernails to be gnawed and rooms to be paced when the Kiwis take to the Rio track 12,000km away in August.

Each bike carries the liveli-

hoods of more than just a solitary pedaller.

Bicycle design engineer David Higgins led the project for Sheppard Industries, who market the Avanti brand.

This assignment has been his passion for more than three years as he sought the best ways to lighten frames, reduce drag, and scythe through the red tape of cycling’s governing body, the UCI.

He describes it as “America’s Cup without the spy boats”.

“In the design phase few people within the walls of Avanti knew about it,” Higgins says.

“My boss, myself and some key guys at Cycling New Zealand.

“The athletes didn’t know until they first got to ride the designs last December.

“Even then, old handlebars were used on media days.”

Robson, who was released from the Warriors earlier in the week, played 61 games for the club in 2009 and 2011 but is expected to mostly play reserve grade on his return. “Jeff is a very experienced playmaker who will add depth to our side this season,” coach Brad Arthur said. “He’ll also be a great asset to work alongside the developing centres in our reserve grade side.” Parramatta’s horror-run with injuries as well as the departure of a number of NRL players due to the salary cap scandal have wreaked havoc on the club’s depth.

Stadium milestones

Methven still team to beat

By James Ford

James.F@TheGuardian.co.nz

Week two of the premier netball grade’s trophy round produced wins for Celtic, Methven and Southern at the EA Networks Centre Stadium on Thursday evening.

Methven 34 College 30 Methven came into Thursday’s clash off the back of an impressive 37-27 win over Celtic a week ago, while College had another quick turnaround after downing Rangiora High School 34-32 on Wednesday evening.

If there was any fatigue from their SuperNet tie a day earlier, College certainly didn’t show it in the first quarter.

Ange Mitchell’s side led 11-8 at quarter time after a fast-paced opening 10 minutes, but Methven reacted as good champions do with a dominant display in the second stanza.

Methven put up 10 goals to College’s four as the new shooting combination of Kimberly McCabe and Pip Dixon began to gel.

The third quarter was a better one for College, but Methven still ran out 9-7 winners.

College rallied in the final 10 minutes and outscored Methven 8-7, but it proved too little too late.

Mitchell said the fine contribution from all 10 girls was pleasing and praised her players’ improvement throughout the season, but credited Methven for their intensity.

“We knew they would come back at us and it was disappointing that we let them turn the score around by so much in the second quarter,” she said.

“The changes at halftime lifted us again but we couldn’t quite get back within the three goal buffer.”

Methven remain this season’s most consistent team, having lost just once in what has been a solid defence of their title so far.

Coach Greta Currie was impressed by McCabe and Dixon’s performances under the hoop after a dicey first quarter and credited her players’ fitness levels for the win.

“We had a different shooting combination, so I think that took a little bit of time to settle in,” she said.

“I think their fitness really showed through, they were able to play hard in all four quarters.”

Celtic 32 Hampstead 26 Celtic bounced back from their loss to Methven last week with a 32-26 win over Hampstead.

The greens were up 8-3 at the quarter time and boosted their

lead to eight in the second stanza as Debbie Summerfield and Rachel MacGregor provided plenty of ball to Amanda Ward for an 1810 halftime score.

It was more of the same from Celtic after the break, adding another 10 goals while Hampstead could only muster six in reply.

To Hampstead’s credit, they continued to battle in the fourth quarter and enjoyed the better of play, outscoring Ange Leadley’s side 10-4, but the deficit proved too wide to bridge for a 32-26 final score.

Hampstead coach Cindy Meadows said her side will be out to prove their worth against Methven next week following Thursday’s disappointing performance.

“Our goal shoot Emma Rosevear was in great form, she was calm and her overall accuracy meant we were able to keep in touch,” she said.

“We are better than what we displayed last night and will be back next week to prove that.”

Southern 25 United 18 Southern condemned United to their second loss in as many weeks despite a valiant fightback late on.

Southern led 7-3 at quarter time and improved their advantage to 15-8 at halftime.

United’s evening was made worse in the third quarter when influential captain Claire Tappin picked up an injury, forcing coach Anne Gilbert to reshuffle her side.

A depleted United showed plenty of grit in the final 10 minutes, though, and outscored Southern 6-3, but the damage had already been inflicted.

“We were very disappointed with our play, we need to be more consistent from game to game,” said Gilbert.

“We put pressure on ourselves by throwing too many passes away, by either making poor choices or poor execution – this will be a focus for next week.”

Southern co-coach Jodene Lowe was pleased with her side’s efforts throughout the clash following a productive training session on Monday evening.

“Our circle defence were outstanding, turning over numerous ball and securing many rebounds,” she said.

“Once again our mid court worked tirelessly and also our new shooting combination started to gel nicely.”

Premier B grade results: Ashburton College B 28 v Allenton A 33, Hampstead U18 37 v Celtic B 21, Celtic Green 25 v Rakaia A 26.

son (GK) made the most of their opportunity with Sala Bueta sidelined with illness.

The duo grew throughout the tie and picked up clean intercepts in the third and fourth quarters,

while the shooting combination of Sophie Beveridge (GA) and Grace Wilson (GS) also worked well.

College coach Ange Mitchell said the new look side produced

an impressive display to finish round one in style.

“Pleasing composure shown by this different lineup to lead from start to finish and secure the win,” she said.

Mt Smart Stadium celebrates a couple of significant milestones today. On the same day Simon Mannering brings up his 250th NRL game, the much-maligned Penrose venue will also host its 250th NRL match.

It’s become the closest thing to a cauldron for the inconsistent Auckland franchise over the years.

The club have won almost 60 per cent of their matches there (145 victories from 249 games), a figure not helped by several dire seasons.

But even in the worst of times, like from 1999-2000, 2005 or 2009, the club have usually been competitive at Mt Smart. - NZME

Sharks yet to peak Cronulla are on the cusp of club history, but Shane Flanagan has brushed aside concerns his side has peaked too early in the NRL season.

The Sharks have a shot at a teamrecord 12-straight wins when they take on Parramatta at Southern Cross Group Stadium tonight. No team since the start of the NRL era in 1998 has won 12 games in a row and gone on to win the premiership, but Flanagan said that didn’t mean his side couldn’t maintain their form until October.

“We’ve got heaps of improvement in us,” Flanagan said.

In brief

■ TENNIS

Murray marches on Andy Murray produced the kind of imperious form that has propelled him into two grand slam finals this year as he beat Taiwan’s Lu Yen-hsun 6-3 6-2 6-1 in the Wimbledon second round yesterday.

Lu, the son of a chicken farmer, ruffled a few feathers on Centre Court when he jumped out to a 2-0 lead before extending it to 3-1 in the opening set.

However, once Murray had levelled for 3-3, it did not take him long to clip his rival’s wings.

From 3-2 up in the second set, Murray won seven games on the trot as Lu struggled to find a way to keep pace with Murray’s potent groundstrokes as he breezed through the third set.

“It’s always difficult to know how close you are to being your best.

“But I was hitting the ball clean.

“I was happy with how I played,” said the world No.2, who will next face Australian John Millman.

France’s Nicolas Mahut knocked off Spain’s David Ferrer, the No. 13 seed, in straight sets, while Uzbekistan’s Denis Istomin beat another Spaniard, Nicolas Almagro.

The Mahut-Ferrer match had been suspended due to rain on Wednesday, with the Frenchman up 3-1.

When play resumed, Mahut got going quickly, rolling to a 6-1 6-4 6-3 win.

Unseeded Czech Jiri Vesely won a battle of the tiebreaks to

sink Austrian eighth seed Dominic Thiem in three tough sets.

Thiem, whose top-10 ranking consolidated at the French Open with a run to the semi-finals, had won 18 of the 28 tiebreaks he has played this year while the 64thranked Czech had lost 12 of his 16.

But in a pulsating two-andthree-quarter hour encounter during which both players successfully varied their game, punctuating long baseline rallies with bouts of serve-and-volley and the occasional dropshot, the pressure of holding a misfiring serve eventually told on Thiem.

He conceded all three of the decisive points in Vesely’s 7-6 (7-4) 7-6(7-5) 7-6(7-3) win on forehand errors – having earlier passed up three break points in the 11th game of the first set.

The Czech will play Portuguese 31st seed Joao Sousa in the third round.

Meanwhile Bernard Tomic fixed his gaze firmly on the fourth round after apologising for his Wimbledon faux pas and vowing to step up his title bid.

Tomic defeated Moldovan qualifier Radu Albot 7-6 (7-3) 6-3 6-7 (6-8) 6-3 to set up a clash with 14th seed Roberto BautistaAgut before expressing his regret at saying he felt “like a retard” on Thursday.

“Look, I apologise if I offended anyone. I’m sorry.

“It just came out the wrong way,” Tomic said after upsetting British learning disability charity Mencap.

Erakovic served well with an 80 per cent first serve and played a high-risk game which came off with 46 winners and 43 errors, she also won 30 of 38 points at net. In the third round she will face Spanish 12th seed Carla Suarez Navarro whom she has a 1-1 record against.

Troicki screamed at chair umpire Damiano Torella. “You’re horrible!

What are you doing? Tell me!”

When play resumed, RamosVinolas hit a serve that Troicki returned long with a backhand, giving the Spaniard a 3-6, 6-3, 6-3, 2-6, 6-3 victory.

No holding back

Fresh furore over Nike’s ‘lingerie dress’ Nike’s controversial “lingerie” Wimbledon dress has been heavily criticised by players for making them uncomfortable during the opening days of the grand slam.

The sports apparel giant was last week forced into what was described as an embarrassing re-call of its Nike Premier Slam dresses so they could be altered in time for Wimbledon’s opening round of matches.

According to reports, players complained the dress was too revealing below the waist and was branded “skimpy” by some commentators.

Canadian star Eugenie Bouchard is among a group of around 20 players to have worn the muchmaligned threads and appeared to struggle with her ensemble during her first round win over Magdalena Rybarikova.

The dress frequently flew up above her waist, causing some tennis fans to label the Nike product the “Marilyn Monroe”.

The bouncy dress was slammed by a number of players while other stars, including 2013 Wim-

Ashburton Guardian 21

who was knocked out in qualifying, said the dress interfered with her court movement.

“When I was serving, it was coming up, and I felt like the dress was just everywhere,” Peterson said.

“In general, it’s quite simple, the dress, but it was flying everywhere.”

The Czech Republic’s Lucie Hradecka decided to wear leg-

gings underneath the dress during her Wimbledon preparations.

Katie Boulter, another qualifying casualty, wore the Premier Slam with a headband tied around her waist.

The most notable criticism came from Scottish tennis coach Judy Murray - the mother of World No. 2 Andy - who said she expects Nike to make immediate alterations to the dress.

“The important thing for any clothing manufacturer who is sponsoring top players is to make sure that the clothing is functional for the job in hand,” Murray told The Telegraph.

“So I’m sure that Nike will be taking steps to address it. Because anything that is not functional proves distracting to the players and that’s not in anybody’s interests.

“I know from experience of watching the boys, you have to get the clothing right, the footwear right because these are partly the tools of your trade so it has to be functional for what it is that you need to do.”

After two days of rain created a backlog of matches, the five-times Wimbledon champion was sent to the 782-seater Court 18 yesterday, an arena once labelled “a parking lot” by former world No.1 Jelena Jankovic. In 2008 Jankovic had fumed she “needed a helicopter” to reach the smallest of Wimbledon’s six showcourts.

Stosur crashes out Samantha Stosur admits she was powerless to stop grasscourt juggernaut Sabine Lisicki from adding to her Wimbledon woes with yet another premature exit from the tennis showpiece. Runnerup in 2013, Lisicki delivered a serving masterclass to consign the French Open semi-finalist to a 6-4 6-2 second-round defeat, her 14th first-week defeat at the All England Club. While eight double-faults undermined Stosur’s challenge, Lisicki - owner of the fastest recorded serve in women’s tennis history - was nigh-on untouchable on her monster delivery. - Reuters

In brief More black type Tony Pike can add to his already impressive Queensland winter carnival haul today with Sacred Star.

The Cambridge trainer has Group One wins there to his credit with Provocative and Sacred Elixir and he is now chasing further stakes success in the Listed Glasshouse Handicap at the Sunshine Coast with his well-performed sprinter.

To be ridden by Vinnie Colgan, Sacred Star finished fifth last time out in the Gr.1 Stradbroke Handicap.

Kiwi-bred in rich form The floodgates have opened for Pin Your Hopes and further success may come his way today. The New Zealand-bred son of Pins ended a two year drought when he won at Cranbourne three runs back and he then added a Flemington victory last weekend to his record. The Matthew Ellerton and Simon Zahratrained gelding will now back up at Caulfield with apprentice Ben Thompson to claim three kilos.

“I think the soft tracks have also really helped him,” Zahra said. “I think the firmer tracks stopped him and he lost his confidence, but now he’s letting go.”

Young reinsman eyes title

By Michelle NelsoN

Michelle.n@theguardian.co.nz

Junior harness racing driver John Morrison has the Cadet of the Year title in his sights.

The Ashburton-raised teenager cut his teeth in his father Chris Morrison’s saddlery shop, frequently attaching baling twine reins to objects.

There was little doubt about his proposed career even before he started school.

He hit his straps this year with five wins in his first season on the track and an impressive list of placings to back those wins up.

Morrison is one of four cadets contesting the Cadet of the Year award on Wednesday, and the only bloke in the lineup.

He will take on fellow Cantabrian Kim Blakemore, Erin Isherwood (Northern) and Chelsea Faithful (Southern) in a compe-

tition which promises a few surprises.

“We don’t know exactly what we will be doing in the finals but there will be some random things in the mix – apparently we might have to bake a cake and commentate a race,” he said.

“It’s difficult to study for in the buildup.”

However, Morrison is quietly confident about his chances,

having performed well in the semi-finals.

“I’m hoping I’ll be right there but I’m up against the four best junior drivers in the country,” he said.

Morrison is currently driving for Christchurch stable Spreydon Lodge, where he spends his mornings before putting on his apron to spend the afternoon blacksmithing, an arrangement he says is working well.

Jumper chasing elusive victory Rosetown Joe opens a winter campaign tomorrow that can provide him with a long overdue return to winning form.

The Istidaad gelding, who hasn’t won a race for two years, will be back in action in the Te Aroha Veterinary Services Steeplechase.

Part-owner and trainer Warren Lund has been satisfied with the rising 11-year-old’s recent progress after a setback delayed his return.

“He was going along nicely before the soles of his feet got a bit sore,” he said.

“He’s good now and he’s done a lot of work around our farm, he’s gone over to Mrs Browne’s place a few times and he’s schooled at Cambridge.”

Rosetown Joe enjoyed his best winter in 2013 when he finished runner-up in the Waikato Steeplechase before he beat Tom’s Myth to claim top honours in the McGregor Grant Steeplechase before a leg injury at the end of that campaign sidelined him for nearly two years.

McDonald staying on James McDonald has extended his stay in England after William Buick’s 30-day suspension. The New Zealander expressed his sympathy for his Godolphin team-mate, but is excited by an ‘unbelievable’ opportunity to ride at the major summer festivals at Newmarket and Goodwood. “It’s a bit unfortunate with the circumstances, but I’m looking forward to getting more opportunities and I’m happy to fill in the gaps when I can,” McDonald said.

Back-to-back for Mor Wanganui trainer Evan Rayner can see no reason why Mr Mor can’t achieve back-to-back wins in today’s Animal Health Direct Hawke’s Bay Steeplechase (4800m) at Hastings. The 11-yearold claimed last year’s Hawke’s Bay Steeples as the first leg of a feature double he completed when he won the Wellington Steeplechase at his next start.

He went on to finish second to High Forty in the Grand National Steeples at Riccarton and Rayner believes his star jumper is in at least as good form going into this year’s Hastings feature.

Trying for one better

Rosetown Joe begins his winter campaign at the Te Aroha meeting tomorrow.

Tough stayer Pop `N’ Scotch is back in Brisbane for his third attempt to win the Queensland Cup in which he has been second for the past two years. Trained

by Liam Birchley, Pop ‘N’ Scotch will have his final lead-up to the 3200m-Queensland Cup on July 16 in today’s Listed Caloundra Cup (2400m). The gelding was originally trained by John Thompson and ran second to Iggi Pop in the 2014 Queensland Cup as a three-year-old. “He was home everywhere but the line in the Cup last year. Mr Impatience got up and beat him a nose in the last stride,” Birchley said.“ He is down in the weights in the Caloundra Cup and he does usually race well there.

He is here for another crack at the Queensland Cup and it might be third time lucky. ” - AAP

Course concern for Ramarro Accomplished winter performer Ramarro is in career best form, but part-owner and trainer Peter Lock does have reservations about his chances today.

The lightly-raced six-year-old will attempt to post consecutive wins when he steps out in the Sky-

Rapa race fitted in well with his plan to take Ramarro on the trip south.

“We’re trying to space his races to get through to the Winter Cup so he’s going to have to put his hand up on Saturday to warrant that.”

OUR VIEW

Ban bad dog breeds and save a child Sue Newman

D

og amnesties are a great idea if they encourage dog owners to have their dogs chipped, registered and de-sexed, but they go too far when they set out to bring lawless dogs into the fold.

Auckland Council has just wrapped up a campaign to have its menacing dogs on its books and it’s succeeded to some degree. But that begs the question – why go down this path for dogs that have already blotted their copy book by coming to council’s attention for all the wrong reasons.

As a country we have an appalling record when it comes to dogs attacking people. Hardly a week goes by and an attack occurs somewhere around the country.

The outcome is always similar – a person, often a child – badly bitten, often scarred for life and a dog that is usually destroyed.

That’s what happens in our district, but in Auckland it seems different rules apply.

The recent amnesty netted 1200 dogs classified as menacing and they’re all now running legal at a very small cost to their owners.

You have to ask why the council wants to have those dogs, each presumably with a bad record, on its books.

There is sufficient evidence that shows clearly that some dogs are more likely to be involved in a serious attack on a human than others. Rather than pandering to their owners, surely it would make far more sense if these dog breeds were simply banned.

Yes, it’s far better for a council to know those menacing breeds are on their patch than not, but not allowing them in the first place would make far more sense.

The positive of the Auckland experiment is that 1200 of its menacing dogs will now have been de-sexed, but they’re still out there, usually with owners who’re less than vigilant about their whereabouts.

As a country we need to take a tough line on breeds known to have a high risk of going bad. Ban them at the border and we’ll be taking a huge step towards keeping our streets safe and our dog gene pool a whole lot purer.

YOUR VIEW Water plant protest I would like to extend a massive thank you to Jen Branje for fighting for the sanctity of Ashburton water on our behalf.

Jen and her team have been committed advocates for all of the rest of Ashburton, working hard and long hours.

Even if you don’t like her message, Jen has made us have a much needed conversation about water.

To those that say that the water taken from the bore is the proverbial drop in the ocean – where then should we start?

The facts about the quality and quantity of our water are becoming alarming and clearly something needs to be done.

Most people will be familiar with the game (Jenga) that consists of a pile of bricks and players take turns pulling out one brick at a time until –

CRUMB

whoops! – the whole thing falls down.

To me, this bore represents one brick. This brick might not be the one that will cause the tower of Ashburton’s water supply to fall down but there are increasingly fewer bricks and each one is becoming more critical.

Rebecca Perkins

Your matters

Poverty When the poorest 50 per cent of New Zealanders own only 3 per cent of the nation’s wealth, while the wealthiest 10 per cent of our population owns 46 per cent of our country’s assets, we know something is very seriously wrong.

We know this is not fair. It is not right. It will not lead to a socially cohesive society, a society that will willingly mobilise its resources to support all members when an emergency comes.

Kiwi guide to dealing with Brits Peter Livingstone OUT OF SCHOOL

I

’ve started planning for the flood of Britons who will arrive in droves now that they don’t want to play in the same sandpit as some French and Germans.

As a school we’ve had British families before so I know how to cope with this wave of Union Jack underwear wearing, football mad nationals.

As new families to this country they will be anxious to settle their little Beckham and Posh into a school and look for a job as a bus conductor or gas fitter with the local council.

Here are some changes they will have to deal with:

Grass and trees at school On first arriving at school all families will be given an 11minute PowerPoint presentation explaining what grass and trees are.

This will feature photos of grass and trees. Then, before venturing outside, our school council will role play on how to interact with grass and trees. This will finish with a delightful rendition of the Green, Green Grass of Home, including a recorder solo.

Next we will actually walk around on grass and watch kids play in trees.

One of my more robust children will demonstrate how high you have to climb before a branch will not support your weight.

Another little darling will also show them how to slide in wet grass and get dirty.

It’s important these fundamental skills are learnt early in order for them to assimilate into society.

Learning the art of a Tim-Tam Slam is a must.

BYO lunch

Shorts and skorts

During lunchtime new migrants will get to experience children eating a lunch brought from home. There will be an in-depth demonstration on how to make a Marmite sandwich, including the option of adding chips.

Our Pommy parents will be shown how to wrap orange slices in cling film and also how to clean yoghurt out from inside a lunchbox or school bag.

Then they will get to have a go at making a fairy bread sandwich. This essential skill will stand them in good stead when they host their first birthday for their kids and new Kiwi friends at home. Our new compatriots will also observe typical Kiwi-kid lunch behaviour in winter.

This means sitting on the cold concrete in bare feet with your school sweatshirt pulled over your knees. They will delight in the fact we only keep them in this state until their lips begin to turn blue.

Many British mums will be intensely interested in our yearround use of shorts and skorts.

(Skorts are shorts for girls with an extra piece of material that hangs at the front. It makes them look like a skirt.)

There will be a demonstration from a Pakuranga housewife on why it is best to not bother washing the shorts until the end of the week, due to the fact that each day, mud simply accumulates and no-one is bothered about this.

We may also engage a clinical technician to give hints and tips on how to remove school paint, PVA glue, glitter and fairy bread stains.

Vibrant classrooms of learning And now for the trickiest situation, that may come as quite a shock.

Despite the best efforts of

people who have never worked with children, our classrooms are actually about learning, not testing and ranking kids.

Our dear dislocated cousins from the Northern Isles will find it initially disturbing that we don’t have a national test for all 10-year-olds.

This is where we simply go full immersion and throw our new parents into a classroom and ask them to observe.

At first many are bewildered that the teacher is not at the front, instructing all the children in the exact same lesson.

Then they slowly begin to realise that we work with our children on a far more personal level. Bewilderment turns to hope when they see teachers have planned and facilitated learning for the current needs of the children in front of them.

At this point many of them begin to question why they believed testing children and ranking schools, was such a big deal at home.

Imagine their faces when they realise we treat children as children, not some number in a class whom must pass a test, in order for a teacher to get a pay bonus.

Tim-Tam Slams at PTA We will finish with tea and coffee in the staffroom, because we are not that precious about our spaces as teachers.

During this moment of light refreshment, I will demonstrate a Tim-Tam Slam with coffee. This is definitely a must-learn and should be practised before your first PTA meeting.

If you are unsure what a TimTam Slam is, bring in a packet of Tim-Tams to the Tinwald School staffroom and I will show you.

This is definitely one moment of deliciousness everyone should experience.

Words have power and need to be used wisely

W

ords can build us up or break us down.

We often dismiss words as being of little importance – as if it is only actions that matter.

When I was at school we were taught a little rhyme with which to respond when others said nasty things.

Some of you may remember it too – “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me”.

I think the point of the rhyme was to encourage us not to respond badly to taunts or name calling, but it wasn’t entirely true, was it?

Words have the power to create deep and lasting pain. Another saying I came across much more recently is – “Taste your words

Rev. David Bayne

CHRISTIAN COMMENT

before you spit them out”. That sounds like good advice.

I wonder if the recent encounter between a MP and a tobacco executive might have benefited from that saying.

More and more it seems that we have forgotten how to disagree today.

Why is it that so many assume that the persuasiveness of an argument is measured by the intensity with which it is expressed rather than the logic that it contains?

Was it not ironic that we had the vehement labelling of a

tobacco representative as being equivalent to those who ran Nazi death camps?

Ironic, because violent words without logical argument lay behind the populism that led to Nazi ascendancy in the first place.

How then should we speak?

With care – distinguishing between people and issues and distinguishing between opinion and fact. Using arguments that are soundly constructed and in a manner that is respectful rather than abusive.

Words have power. Such power needs to be used wisely.

Words can encourage. Words can reveal what is true and good and helpful.

Jesus had such words. After a challenging time of teaching when some decided not to follow

Jesus, the disciples were asked if they were going to leave too.

Peter replied: “Lord to whom will we go? You have the words of eternal life.”

The words of Jesus have the power to heal damaged lives, to reveal the truth, to bring us to God – to lead us to eternal life.

There is a quality to that life which we enjoy in the here and now.

We enjoy it as we hear the words of God to us, as we speak to Him, and as we speak to others in a way that is gracious – designed to build them up.

May we listen to God’s good words and may our words be good words too.

Myanmar downgraded Myanmar called sad and regrettable a move by the United States to place the country on a list of the world’s worst human trafficking offenders, while rights groups welcome it as long overdue.

The demotion came late this week when the US State Department released its closely watched annual Trafficking in Persons report.

It placed Myanmar alongside countries like Iran, North Korea and Syria, and says the Southeast Asian country has failed to meet “the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking.”

It also removed Thailand from the blacklist despite what the State Department described as widespread forced labour in the country’s seafood industry.

The downgrade for Myanmar appeared aimed at sending a message to the country’s new democratically elected government, headed by Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi, and its still-powerful military to curb use of forced labour, sex trafficking and the recruitment of children as soldiers into the armed forces.

Suu Kyi has been criticised for failing to address widespread persecution of the Rohingya Muslim minority in the Buddhist country.

Her government criticised the demotion as failing to recognise the country’s progress.

“We are very sad that we have not been recognised for making positive changes,” said presi-

Myanmar’s Foreign Ministry called the downgrade “regrettable” and urged the US not to impose restrictions that would hamper US-Myanmar relations.

It also promised to step up efforts to combat trafficking measures.

Myanmar had faced a mandatory move up or down the rankings after four years on the watch list.

Human rights groups applauded the downgrade, noting that Myanmar was evaluated mostly on the basis of what was done under the previous armybacked government. Suu Kyi’s civilian administration took power in March.

“Myanmar’s downgrade is overdue,” said Matthew Smith of Thailand-based advocacy

group Fortify Rights. “The military has long been one of Southeast Asia’s worst perpetrators of human trafficking.”

There was disappointment in Yangon, Myanmar’s commercial centre since the US action virtually precludes trade privileges that would help jumpstart economic growth after decades of ruinous military rule.

“The government and people have been trying hard for our country,” said Win Aung, chairman of the Myanmar Chambers of Commerce.

Rights groups also criticised the upgrade of Thailand, which was removed from the bottomrung Tier 3 category and placed on the Tier 2 watch list.

Labour abuses in the Thai seafood industry gained in prominence around the globe

after a two-year investigation

by The Associated Press that led to the freeing of more than 2,000 slaves and the arrest of more than a dozen alleged traffickers. Several have been convicted.

“2015 was an historically bad year for human trafficking in Thailand,” Fortify Rights said in its statement, calling the upgrade premature.

Thailand’s Foreign Minister Don Pramudwinai said the government was happy to see its efforts rewarded and planned to work harder.

“We are pleased today that all the efforts of the past year culminated into a certain degree of success,” he told a news conference Friday. “I’m determined to work vigorously in order to rid the country of this modern slavery.”

Self driving cars record first death The first person to die in a US crash involving a car in selfdriving mode was the techsavvy 40-year-old owner of a Tesla Model S who nicknamed his car “Tessy” and praised its sophisticated “Autopilot” system.

Joshua D. Brown, of Canton, Ohio, died in the May 7 crash in Williston, Florida, when his car’s cameras failed to distinguish the white side of a turning tractor-trailer rig from a brightly lit sky and didn’t automatically activate its brakes, according to government records and a Tesla statement issued Thursday.

In April Brown credited his car with avoiding a crash when a commercial truck swerved into his lane. He published a video of the incident online.

Tesla noted that drivers must manually enable the Autopilot system: “Autopilot is getting better all the time, but it is not perfect and still requires the driver to remain alert.”

As NHTSA opened an investigation, Tesla founder Elon Musk expressed condolences.

Preliminary reports indicate the crash occurred when Ba-

ressi’s rig turned left in front of Brown at an intersection of a divided highway where there was no traffic light, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said.

By the time firefighters arrived, the Tesla wreckage — with its roof sheared off — had come to rest in a yard hundreds of feet from the crash site.

Tesla said in a statement that this was the first known death in over 130 million miles of Autopilot operation. Before Autopilot can be used, drivers have to acknowledge that the system is an “assist feature” that requires both hands on the wheel.

Scarlett Johansson has taken the crown as Hollywood’s highest-grossing actress ever. According to Box Office Mojo, which tracks how much money movies make, lists Johansson as the top-earning actress.

The 31-year-old’s films have made more than US$3.3 billion (NZ$4.6b). Johansson is the youngest actor to make the top 10, but is currently the only female. Cameron Diaz is the second-highest-grossing actress, at just over US$3b.

Iggy Azalea breakup Iggy Azalea has revealed she didn’t leave fiance Nick Young because he got his ex pregnant. The 26-year-old Aussie rapper took to Twitter after reports surfaced that Keonna Green, the mother of Young’s four-year-old son, Nick Jr, is four months pregnant with his second child. Azalea says she caught Young cheating on home video footage. “I have never even been told by Nick that his baby mother is pregnant,” Azalea wrote. “I broke up with Nick because I found out he had brought other women into our home while I was away and caught them on the security footage.” The split came a month after a leaked video showed Young admitting to his Los Angeles Lakers teammate D’Angelo Russell that he had cheated on Azalea.

Brown’s death comes as NHTSA is taking steps to ease self-driving cars onto the nation’s roads, an anticipated sea-change in driving where Tesla has been a leader. Selfdriving cars are expected to eliminate human errors that are responsible for 94 percent of crashes.

This is not the first time automatic braking systems have malfunctioned, and several

have been recalled to fix problems.

Harley said that more deaths can be expected as the autonomous technology is refined.

Karl Brauer, a senior analyst with Kelley Blue Book, said the crash is a huge blow to Tesla’s reputation.

“They have been touting their safety and they have been touting their advanced technology,” he said. “This situation flies in the face of both.”

New Zealand actor Cliff Curtis and actor/ director Taika Waititi have been invited to join the Oscar academy in its latest bid to diversify. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which presents the Oscars, announced it is enlisting 683 new members after this year’s ceremony highlighted an over-representation of white males in the academy. There was outrage in January when the academy announced its Oscar nominees with a total absence of black actors. At the time the academy promised to diversify and do better. Now it’s completed a global search for new members, including New Zealand’s two Maori film stalwarts. While 90 per cent of the academy is white and 75 per cent male, its latest recruitment drive will see female membership rise from 25 per cent to 27 per cent. Members of colour will rise from 8 per cent to 11 per cent.

Is he the retiring type?

If Paul Simon is serious about calling it quits, he didn’t let on to a hometown crowd.

The first of Simon’s two concerts in his native Queens, the conclusion of the singer’s North American tour, took on an added resonance when he mused to The New York Times in an interview this week that he may be nearing retirement. Simon turns 75 in October.

Simon didn’t address the subject in a recent two-hour show at Forest Hills Stadium.

With nearly 60 years of music to choose from, Simon’s heart — and much of his song selection — seemed to be in the period of multicultural exploration from his “Graceland” album on.

“It’s kind of a time warp,” said Simon, looking up at the sky over the US Open tennis tournament’s former home.

“I’m trying to get over whether it’s strange or just a beautiful dream.”

The audience loudly cheered references to New York City in his music — a New York City winter in The Boxer, the Statue of Liberty in American Tune.

After getting people dancing to Me and Julie Down By the Schoolyard, Simon slyly noted,

“and I know just where that schoolyard is.”

He grew up in Forest Hills, Queens, and was 15 when he and a school buddy, Art Garfunkel, had a minor hit with the song Hey Schoolgirl under the name Tom and Jerry. The folk-rock duo they formed under their own names was among the biggestselling acts of the 1960s.

Simon, the writer of the duo, went on to a fruitful solo career capped by this year’s Stranger to Stranger. The album was praised by critics and, somewhat surprisingly in a youth-obsessed industry, also has proven to be a commercial success.

Simon and Garfunkel have reunited occasionally in the more than four decades since breaking up, with their last show together in Forest Hills Stadium. The two are now estranged, and no reference was made to Garfunkel on Thursday. Simon played only two songs from their collaboration, The Boxer and Homeward Bound.

Simon’s nine-piece band skillfully navigated the swath of musical territory Simon explores in his music, from Africa to Brazil to Peru to New Orleans to Memphis and, of course, to New York.

Paul Simon ended his North American tour with two gigs in his native New York. During the first he made no reference to an interview he gave earlier this week where he talked about retiring.

PHOTO AP Simon covered Elvis Presley’s That’s Alright, Mama and dedicated it to Presley’s former guitar player, Scotty Moore, who died this week.

Some of Simon’s folk-era songs were given a new spin, like the bluesy take on Slip Slidin’ Away.

Jail ‘inevitable’ for religious brother An elderly Marist Brother who has admitted sexually abusing former students will almost certainly spend time behind bars, a Sydney court has heard.

Darcy John O’Sullivan, known to his victims as “Brother Dominic”, pleaded guilty earlier this year to a string of indecent assaults against children.

The 78-year-old, who abused boys in the 1970s and 80s when he worked as a teacher and principal around the NSW Hunter region and near Lismore in the state’s north, faced a hearing at Sydney’s Downing Centre District Court on Friday.

He appeared impassive in the dock as the men he preyed upon as children delivered emotional victim impact statements outlining the lifelong toll his assaults had taken on them.

One man, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told the hearing that as a

child he would kneel each evening to recite the Rosary with members of his devout Catholic family.

But O’Sullivan’s repeated attacks cost him his faith.

He turned from a “normal boy” who liked playing footy to an angry and confused young man who battled anxiety and suffered frequent panic attacks.

“While the adults around me carried on as if nothing was happening, my whole world was shattered,” the man said.

He hugged a fellow victim as they passed one another in the courtroom.

A fellow former student told how he was taught to believe that Marist Brothers were almost saintly: “They were God’s representatives on Earth.”

But in Brother Dominic he saw something unholy.

“I felt as though my dignity was stripped away in his classroom,” the man said.

“I was no longer a pupil

there to learn, I had become an object for his own sexual gratification.”

Specialist child sex assault Judge Kate Traill said it was “inevitable” that O’Sullivan would receive a full-time jail term when he is sentenced later this year.

But Judge Traill knocked back a Crown application for O’Sullivan to be immediately taken into custody, noting that he had complied with bail conditions over the years since he was first charged, and that he was receiving treatment for a major depressive disorder.

“I am of the view that because many of these matters happened a long time ago, when he was in a different position, that if released he would not commit offences of that type,” Judge Traill said.

O’Sullivan must return to court for sentencing submissions on August 26 and is expected to be sentenced soon after.

Nobody knows how many crocodiles there are in North Queensland, but early signs are there are more than there used to be. A review is underway into crocodile management following the death of NSW woman Cindy Waldron, 46, who was taken at Thornton Beach, in the Daintree National Park, late last month.

A team led by crocodile expert and Department of Environment principal wildlife officer Dr Matt Brien took to the Russell River, south of Cairns, on Wednesday night and found a “healthy” population of about one crocodile per kilometre - well up on the results of surveys from the same region in the 80s.

Woman dead at 117 A 117-year-old woman in Mexico City finally received her birth certificate, and died a few hours later. Trinidad Alvarez Lira had waited years for proof that she had been born in 1898. She hadn’t received all the government old age benefits she was entitled to because she had no proof of her age. The city Department of Social Development said they had finally granted her birth certificate earlier this week, but she died of a heart attack mid week. Apparently Alvarez Lira didn’t have time to cash a single cheque.

Grizzly claims life The Indonesian foreign minister has urged her new Philippine counterpart to secure important shipping routes that have come under threat by militant groups.

Retno Marsudi was the first overseas dignitary to meet new Philippines Foreign Minister Perfecto Yasay after he took office on Thursday.

Speaking after their meeting in Manila on Friday, Ms Marsudi said it was important Indonesia continue fostering their relationship with the Philippines to ensure the release of seven Indonesia crew taken hostage earlier this month in the Sulu Sea, possibly by the militant group Abu Sayyaf.

It came after 14 Indonesians were taken captive in two incidents in March and April while shipping coal through the region.

Ms Marsudi said such activities were “intolerable” and again called on the Philippines government to guarantee the security of the territorial waters of the Sulu Sea. The trade route is a vital passage for both countries.

Almost 96 per cent of coal consumed by the Philippines comes from Indonesia, while the trade is worth around $US4.6 billion ($A6.17 billion) to Indonesia, Ms Marsudi said in a statement.

She said both ministers have agreed to push co-operation in the Sulu Sea to implement border patrols.

Indonesia has also called on the Philippines to prioritise discussions regarding maritime boundaries and exclusive economic zones in the region.

■ COURT OF APPEAL

Stop brothel court battle fails A landlord whose tenants include a posh Auckland restaurant has lost its second attempt to stop an alleged brothel being run from their building.

Sale 33 owns a building on the central Auckland street of the same name, which houses upmarket eatery Clooney on the ground floor.

The owner went to the High Court last year, alleging David Simpson, an ex-solicitor and former bankrupt, and his wife Maria were running a brothel from a five-bedroom, loft-style apartment on the building’s top floor.

Sale 33 alleged it was always intended a brothel would operate from the apartment and that this was not disclosed.

The allegations were denied

and Justice Susan Thomas last December refused to order that Maria Simpson’s company stop operating the alleged brothel at the premises or cease any prostitution-related activity.

The judge was not satisfied she had the jurisdiction to make the order and believed the appropriate place for the dispute was the Tenancy Tribunal.

Even if she was wrong on that point, Justice Thomas said she was not satisfied there was a serious question to be tried and believed the overall justice of the case did not favour granting the injunction.

Sale 33 then went to the Court of Appeal, which this week also declined to grant the injunction.

Justices Forrest Miller, Graham Lang, and Mary Peters, said

An investigation has been launched in the United States after a man was killed in a car crash while the Tesla Model S he was travelling in was using its Autopilot feature.

The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration opened an investigation into the Model S vehicle and its Autopilot feature after the fatal crash occurred.

Tesla released a statement saying it was the first known fatality to occur in over 210 million kilometres driven in Autopilot across its fleet of vehicles.

Tesla said the crash occurred when a truck-and-trailer unit crossed a highway perpendicular to the Model S.

“Neither Autopilot nor the driver noticed the white side of the tractor trailer against a brightly lit sky, so the brake was not applied.

“The high ride height of the trailer combined with its positioning across the road and the extremely rare circumstances of the impact caused the Model S to pass under the trailer, with the bottom of the trailer impacting the windshield of the Model S,” the statement said.

The crash occurred on May 7 in Williston, Florida, Bloomberg reported.

The man killed has been identified as Joshua Brown, 40, of Ohio.

He posted a number of Tesla videos on YouTube, including a near-

Tesla said if the Model S had crashed into the back or front of the truck-and-trailer unit the “advanced crash safety system” would have prevented any serious injury.

The company extended its sympathies to the family and friends of the man killed in the crash.

“The customer who died in this crash had a loving family and we are beyond saddened by their loss.

“He was a friend to Tesla and the broader EV community, a person who spent his life focused on innovation and the promise of technology and who believed strongly in Tesla’s mission.”

the lease for the apartment expired in six weeks’ time.

“There would be little point in issuing an injunction for such a limited period unless there was clear evidence that Sale 33 is continuing to suffer significant detriment from the activities being carried on by the respondents,” the trio said in their decision on Wednesday.

“It appears that the only remaining issue of any substance will be the claim for damages based on pre-contractual misrepresentations made by the respondents.

There does not appear to be any real issue that the respondents made representations that were false. The real issue is likely to be the quantification of damages,” they said.

The Inland Revenue Department says the latest telephone phishing scam is unusual because it’s still generating about 200 complaints a day despite publicity that typically causes these types of scams to disappear.

Over the past two weeks, the IRD has received complaints from some 3000 customers and has confirmed reports of at least two people following the scammers’ instructions.

IRD general manager of customer services Eleanor Young said it’s impossible to know how many other people have been contacted by the scammers that haven’t laid complaints. Even IRD’s own staff have been targeted.

The scam calls are being made to landlines and mobile phones with messages left on voicemail if the calls remain unanswered. People are told in a threatening and intimidating way by callers that they are from the IRD and that the cus-

tomer is either wanted for historic tax evasion or fraud, there is a red flag on their file, or they are in debt, and that they or their lawyer must return the call as soon as possible.

Customers have been told they need to pay what they owe the IRD by way of iTunes vouchers or face immediate arrest. In a case that featured on Television New Zealand’s Fair Go, one man paid more than $8000 in iTunes vouchers to the scammers who had told him he would be prosecuted if he didn’t pay up.

Another unusual feature of this scam is the volume of customers rung and that people are still being hounded even when they have already answered the call.

People are told to ring a Wellington or Auckland number to arrange immediate payment. Customers that have rung the numbers have

reported the calls have foreignsounding accents and Young’s personal view is that the scammers are based overseas.

She said as soon as the IRD, working with the telecommunications companies and police, shuts down one of the numbers left by the scammer, new numbers are given to those contacted.

Her advice to those receiving these fake threatening calls is to hang up immediately rather than getting “hooked into the story”.

IRD has a link on their home page to a list of scams that the department is regularly hit by and the tell-tale signs to look out for. One of those is the phone number, as IRD only requires customers to contact it via an 0800 number and never asks for credit card or bank account details by telephone.

Anyone being investigated for tax fraud would be interviewed in person and have been asked to provide documents rather than being accused over the telephone, Young said.

ROBIN, Dwane Peter – In loving memory of Dwane Peter Robin, a gentle son and brother, ki tuku tama te whanau.

You never said you were leaving You never said goodbye You were gone before we knew it And only you and God know why.

I often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep And take a walk down memory lane With tears upon my cheek.

It broke my heart to lose you But you didn’t go alone A part of me went with you The day God took you home.

Peter, Raewyn and whanau/ family.

2/7 ALL PUZZLES © THE PUZZLE COMPANY

YOUR STARS ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Though you don’t like to dwell on upsetting experiences, you can now see them as though you were a casual observer, not the one at the centre of the scene. Doing so will help you work out today’s dilemma.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): You’ve discharged quite a lot of emotional energy as of late, and now there’s a hum of mental calm to accompany your every move. It’s a good soundtrack.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Speaking in abstract principles won’t help what’s going on for you personally. Ground your conversation and anecdotes in the facts and happenings of your life.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): You have to do the tough work. After you clear up this bit of gnarly (or perhaps just inordinately tedious) business, you’ll be back to your charismatic, hilarious, sparkly self.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): You sometimes wonder if the person you’re being is who you are or is that person only showing up because of the circumstances in that particular dynamic. Take yourself out of it and see.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): It’s an ideal day to assess your status in concrete measures. Whether it’s counting your blessings, children, money or body stats, size up the facts and find out where you’re at.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): You may be surprised by a sudden awareness of a responsibility you didn’t know you had. Probably, it’s something you’ve already been taking care of, though now, instead of acting automatically, you see the choice in this.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Was it something bad that happened or was it a wisdom-building experience? Run with the idea today and apply that wisdom all over the place.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): The computing power that’s woven into almost everything you do will have a definite effect on a main relationship today. It could, if used well, bring you much closer to your love. If used badly, it could cause a wedge.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): You want to excel, but when you do, there is a set of feelings that catch you off guard. You’re going to succeed again, so it’s important that you prepare yourself for it.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): The pertinent question is whether your sense of what you’re capable of is balanced or a distortion you’ve created based on the expectations of those around you.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): On your way to the next evolution, the one in which you gain what you’ve been wanting, something gets lost. It’s most commonly something you weren’t using and don’t need anyway, but grieving may be called for.
