Ben, Emma, college’s top achievers

By Sue Newman

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

When the trophies, awards and scholarships kept coming at Thursday night’s Year 13 prizegiving, it was almost a giveaway who Ashburton College’s two top students would be.

Before Ben Holland was announced as dux for 2019 and Emma Stagg runner-up or proxime accessit, both had amassed a string of academic and sports awards.

For Ben, gaining the top prize was a reward for five years of hard work. He admitted he knew it could be a close race to the top, but kept hoping he’d done enough throughout the year to win.

And when his name was called, Ben admitted to heaving a sigh of relief. And then he couldn’t stop grinning.

“I’ve always tried to work hard and get good grades and I’m feeling pretty good about this,” he said.

He might have won the ultimate prize, but study is far from over for Ben. He has scholarship and NCEA exams to focus on now and until they’re over he won’t be shifting far from his desk.

Come the end of November, Ben will be shifting his focus to earning as much money

as he can before he heads off to Canterbury University to study towards his ultimate goal of becoming an accountant.

Finishing school was exciting, but it was also pretty scary knowing the real world of hard study and work was just around the corner, he said.

When Ben is not studying, he’s a keen footballer, playing for both college and Mid Canterbury. He plans to keep his sport up when he moves to Christchurch.

In addition to being named college dux, Ben won academic awards for mathematics with Calculus (Hogg Memorial Prize and Robb Cup), Physics (John Hefford Memorial prize), statistics and modelling (John Stewart Memorial prize), Accounting (Gabites Ltd prize), economics prize and the 1st XI soccer trophy for outstanding contribution to college soccer.

Proxime Accessit Emma Stagg says she was stunned to hear her name called. She’d already received more prizes than she anticipated and like most in the Ashburton Event Centre auditorium was sitting back waiting to see which of her peers won the two top awards.

“I certainly wasn’t expecting

this, but I have worked pretty hard this year,” she said.

Emma admitted to being a “bit overwhelmed” by the number of prizes she’d received; proxime accessit topped the night off.

She was quick to congratulate Ben on his win and saying it was well deserved.

“I’m really so happy for him,” she said.

Emma will to Otago University next year where she will major in her favourite subject, geography.

For her school and exams are over and yesterday she headed off on holiday with her family to Rarotonga for a well earned few days’ break before coming back to her holiday job at Carrfields.

As a top rower, Emma said she chose Otago University because of the opportunities available to develop her sport.

In addition to the proxime accessit Emma was awarded prizes for geography (Arnott and Jane Taylor Cup), Otago University, New Frontiers entrance scholarship, Butterick trophy for scholarship in English and sporting endeavour and Cochrane Cup as the top all-round female sports person.

Rewards and accolades for a year of hard work

By Sue Newman

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

For more than 150 students Thursday night marked the end of their school days and the beginning of the next phase of their lives.

As those students accepted awards, scholarships and prizes during the Ashburton College Year 13 prizegiving ceremony, words of wisdom were delivered by staff and guest speakers, but the evening was all about the students.

The end of year ceremony was an opportunity for students to look back at what they had achieved over the past five years of their secondary education, principal Ross

Preece said.

“For some of you, this is your last day of school, you will now be adults in the real world,” he said.

All students, where ever they went in life, would go with their package of Ashburton College ‘takeaways’. That package would include memories and the values that came from living their secondary school years the AshColl way – respect, quality and pride, Preece said.

“When you look back 18 years, in 2001 you embarked on this great adventure called life. Now be excited about what lies ahead.”

Guest speaker Shaun Clark, an

Complete Local Care Since 1982

ex-college student, advised the students to grab the opportunities that life presented.

“It’s about not holding back, backing yourself. Often the things worth doing are not easy but you don’t always have to wait until you’ve got it perfect to get out and give it a go,” he said.

He currently owns an Ashburton based physiotherapy practice but prior to returning to his home town he worked at the Australian Academy of Sport. An offer of a job in Papua New Guinea became the springboard for several projects that saw Clark travel as a physio with the PNG team dur-

ing the Commonwealth Games in Scotland and with the PNG sevens team.

“Those opportunities came because I volunteered, put myself forward,” Clark said.

The same qualities that opened those opportunities up were equally valid when it came to establishing his own business, he said.

“Believe in yourself, don’t be afraid. You can’t succeed if you don’t try, you can want it to happen, wish it would happen, but only you can make it happen.”

Deputy principal Ron Cresswell told the students that they were

now on a journey that would be their own unique path through life.

“As you go always remember where you’ve come from and the people who helped you along the way. Remember your roots and be proud of them,” he said.

He also paid tribute to three long serving members of the college staff who would leave at the end of the school year.

Mark Gleeson came to the college as a fresh graduate 49 years ago, Brenda Beach who has run the school canteen for 24 years and Nola Smitheram who had achieved 35 years and five months as part of the college’s administration team.

Farmers stand proud at show

By Linda Clarke

linda.c@theguardian.co.nz

Farmers are making a political statement of their own at the Ashburton A&P Show.

“Farmers feed cities” says the large, bright yellow sign fixed to a 1963 combine on display outside the Mid Canterbury Vintage Machinery Club’s headquarters, located permanently within the showgrounds.

Retired farmer John Hall intends to drive the combine in today’s grand parade and he says it’s time for farmers to stand up and be proud of their industry. He would like to see more permanent signs and billboards around the district, and on State Highway 1, featuring farm proud sentiments.

Hall said that on his travels to the USA and Canada, he frequently saw big billboards with simple, pro-farming messages.

“They are so proud of what they do and I think New Zealand farmers should be telling our stories a bit more. I have been farming for 50 years and I am very proud to be a farmer, as I think most farmers are.”

Hall said farmers had become better food producers and more efficient users of resources over the generations.

A crop of wheat grown by his grandfather, without irrigation or chemicals, might have produced two or three tonnes a hectare, he said. Now, with irrigation, plant breeding and chemicals to control pests and disease, farmers were averaging 10 tonnes a hectare and the best 19 tonnes.

Hall said technology and improved management practices means farmers were producing a lot more food and at cheaper prices for urban consumers.

“Everything is done so much better and the farms are tidier and more efficient. It is definitely something to be proud of.”

Old tractors on display outside the club prove a point. Early tractors once pulled two-furrow ploughs, but contractors could now cultivate with 12-furrow ploughs.

Farmers have not been feeling the love from Government with policies around greenhouse gas emissions and water quality

Members of the vintage machinery club have been interested in both local and national politics as they meet weekly to socialise or restore tractors and implements.

Club president and dairy and cropping farmer John Stewart said they were uncertain times and farmers were sitting tight, waiting to see the outcome of the proposed policies.

He said farmers were improving their environmental footprint and new policies needed to allow time to achieve expected targets.

The club’s new display space, and meeting rooms, attracted a steady stream of visitors yesterday. Three of the oldest tractors in the district were on display – Stewart’s 1916 International, Peter Gluyas’ 1929 Fordson and

a 1929 Case affectionately called Big Bertha and owned by Kevyn Begg.

Begg said the nickname referred (a little unkindly) to a woman accompanying a showman when the tractor arrived in New Zealand.

The tractor was a grunty workhorse used to thresh the grain on several Begg properties, as well as those of neighbours and other farmers.

Begg said it ran for eight hours on 44 gallons of kerosene. He and family members had restored her in the late 1980s.

He said the show was a perfect occasion to show off “all three of these old girls”.

Begg has been a regular at the show over the years, enjoying the chance to catch up with modern farm machinery and chat about the old days. He was a regular at the Smallbones site when he worked for the company.

He said a show from the early 1960s still stuck in his mind be-

cause one of the entertainment sites featured a performance with live monkeys.

“We had a stand that backed onto the monkeys and they were sneaking out through a gap in the side of the tent and looking at us at the back of ours. We gave one a glass of beer and he drank it. Then another hand came back through the tent for another glass.”

Begg said they supplied enough beer to the monkeys for them to

become drunk.

“The guy came over and went bonkers because they couldn’t do the next performance.”

Around the showgrounds yesterday, school children enjoyed the freebies and farm animals, equestrians competed for ribbons and farm service companies were busy talking shop and sharing treats with customers.

The show continues today with more crowds expected.

In Methven the event proved just as popular, with a local supermarket holding a 5pm party with competitions for pumpkin carvings and fancy dress.

Methven residents Athol and Sonia McAlpine have been going

all out to decorate their house for Halloween over the last 18 years.

For the first time this year they had their four-year-old granddaughter Skyla Williams helping them to meet all the trick or treaters and give out lollies.

Sonia estimated she would

have had more than 100 visit, aged from three to 14. Many of the groups of children were with parents, who had also dressed up for the occasion.

“Everybody was just dressing up amazing and the kids were so polite,” she said.

Door open to EMC funds

By Sue Newman

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

There might be a new team around the Ashburton District Council meeting table but already battle lines have been drawn over funding the district’s tourism organisation.

Councillor Stuart Wilson has long been an advocate of tourism businesses funding Experience Mid Canterbury rather than the organisation receiving an annual grant from the council.

Several years ago he managed to get the backing of his fellow councillors to cut the amount of money the organisation received by $10,000 a year, but mayor Neil

AOS call-out Police conducted an operation to apprehend “a person of interest” at an Ashburton property overnight on Thursday. The person was taken into custody about 12.55am yesterday. The Armed Offenders Squad attended as a precaution.

By Susan Sandys

Hundreds of ghouls, ghosts, witches and zombies walked the streets in Ashburton and Methven on Thursday night, leaving homes depleted of lollies in their wake.

Halloween went off well in Mid Canterbury, with trick or treaters and householders alike getting into the spooky spirit of the occasion.

“I think it’s just something fun to get out and do with your kids, it’s something different,” said Katie Favel, mum of a four-year-old.

For the first time last year she set up a list of Halloween-friendly homes through an event page on Facebook.

“I had only 10 houses last year, and this year it’s just gone crazy,” Favel said.

About 30 householders participated, many going all out to decorate their homes.

And there had been hundreds of trick or treaters visit the houses, which she had listed by suburbs including Tinwald, Hampstead, Netherby and Allenton.

Some parents drove their kids to all the homes. One householder with a bountiful supply of treats reported being visited by at least 80 children.

“Lots of people were messaging me saying they had run out of lollies, I was just telling them to put

In brief

Brown might not be so hard line.

On Thursday when EMC board chair James Urquhart and its general manager Bruce Moffat presented their quarterly report to the council, Brown signalled that the door might not be closed to increasing the council’s grant.

Currently the council gives EMC $463,000 a year but if it wanted an increase then the board needed to come up with a figure and with good supporting data, Brown said.

“We need to hear from you how short your funding is, give us a business case if you want us to understand this,” he said.

Wilson said the organisa-

tion should not be complaining about being short on funds because when the Ashburton i-SITE closed, the money council had given to run this wasn’t taken away.

“You pocketed that to promote the district,” he said.

While that was correct, until that extra money was available the organisation was “going down a dark hole,” Urquhart said.

At about the same time EMC became a council controlled organisation and that saw it landed with extra costs and fees, he said.

“We did end up with more funds to use to market the district but costs go up and we’re losing

funds each year, council is taking $10,000 away from us each year.”

If it was earning $185 million in income from tourists each year, then EMC should be funding itself, Wilson replied.

“I don’t see why the council is so keen to subsidise EMC if you’re doing such a wonderful job.

That money did not go into EMC’s coffers, Moffat said, it went onto the district’s GDP The debate over who should fund EMC had gone round in circles for years, Urquhart said.

At a return of $5600 per ratepayer to the community on what the council gave in funding that was a pretty good return, he said.

The Ashburton District Council has signed off its annual report for 2018/2019 covering both financial and non-financial performance. The report shows the council invested $2.5 million on resurfacing 125km of its road network during the year, and more than $2.8 million was spent rehabilitating a further 98,000 square metres of road.

Its operating result for the year saw a surplus of $7 million before taxation and other comprehensive income, while total revenue was $1.9 million above budget, driven largely by an unbudgeted subsidy for LED streetlights and gains on forestry and property revaluation.

Christmas shut down The Ashburton District Council’s offices will be closed from 1pm on December 24 and will reopen on January 6. The Tinwald pool will be open every day over the summer break except Christmas Day while the EA Networks Centre will be open every day except Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. The Ashburton museum and library will be closed on Christmas Day and Boxing Day and January 1 and 2.

All phone calls to the council office will be answered by a service provider during the closed period.

Hero bus driver An Auckland bus driver is being hailed after kicking off an aggressive passenger who racially abused a group of Chinese people.

Passenger Marina Mueller said the driver was “amazing”, and was punched by the man after she confronted him. The incident occurred as Mueller was travelling home on the Inner Link bus through Parnell on Wednesday evening with a colleague. A group of about five Chinese people – a mother, her two children and two students – stood up to get off the bus, Mueller said. The man, in his 40s, was intoxicated and began to abuse the group.

Aides earn less than living wage

By Sue Newman

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

More than 100 people work in the Ashburton District’s classrooms with some of their school’s most vulnerable students, but more than 80 per cent of them earn less than a living wage.

On top of that at least half of the district’s teacher aides have no job security from year to year and can find their hours cut if schools run out of money.

But this year with their collective wage bargaining, those teacher aides are determined things will change. They want a decent pay increase that recognises the work they do, they want job security and they want pay parity between men and women.

In classrooms, a teacher aide is often the person who plays a significant role in the learning outcome for challenged students, but their work was under-rated and under recognised in terms of pay and conditions, Ashburton branch secretary Cezarne Rodgers said.

Currently 72 per cent of the district’s teacher aides fall into a pay band that ranges from $17.70 to $20.69 per hour. New Zealand’s current living wage is $21.15.

“Education is becoming more complex and more and more of us are required to help out and help students learn. We know how im-

portant we are to schools. Our aim is to achieve high outcomes for students,” she said.

Currently the government has offered a 1.8 per cent increase.

When you’re already at the bottom, that’s clearly not enough to recognise the value of the work teacher aides do, Rodgers said.

Teacher aides are paid out of a

school’s operations budget and that means they’re competing for pay packets out of a relatively small pot of money. If the money runs out their hours are cut. They are paid only for the hours they work, which at best could mean around 40 weeks pay a year.

At least half of those attending a meeting at Hampstead School

yesterday do not have fixed contracts and that means no guaranteed work next year for the rest.

“Job security is a huge issue, but if we can get centralised funding it will give us that job security,” she said.

Many of the teacher aides at the meeting had long service with their schools.

One said she’d been in her job for 14 years and received the same pay rate as someone who was just starting work. Another said she had logged 23 years service and was still on less than a basic wage.

“Imagine what would happen if we went on strike. Our schools would stop,” she said.

Rodgers said she worked 15 hours per week and was only able to afford to carry on with her job because she had a partner who was working. The job was almost impossible for anyone who was the only earner because of the low pay rates, the uncertainty of hours and the lack of pay during school holidays.

The school funding system was broken and it had to be fixed urgently, it failed to deliver certainty for schools and secure and fairly paid work for support staff, she said.

The goal was to have negotiations satisfactorily wrapped up by the end of the year, with teacher aides finally receiving pay rats that recognised their skills and abilities, Rodgers said.

“Government funding is essential to make this happen and schools must be resourced properly to pay support staff fairly, ensure secure employment and provide high quality learning support.”

Stac Attack coming to town If you have even the smallest trace of Scotland in your heritage, then a performance in the Ashburton Trust Event Centre on Sunday will put you in touch with your inner Scot.

The St Andrew’s College pipe band will be on stage at the event centre with students performing a mix of traditional and contemporary musical numbers.

The Stac Attack performance is made up of about 90 drummers and pipers and a number of highland dancers. Among the

Dunedin man dies from Legionnaires in compost NZME A Dunedin man has died from Legionnaires disease, which he is believed to have contracted from compost.

The man was in good health, but days after placing a load of compost in his glasshouse started to develop flu-like symptoms.

Legionnaires, also known as legionellosis, is a type of pneumonia caused by bacteria commonly found living in potting mix, soils and compost.

The man visited his GP and was admitted to hospital, where his condition gradually deteriorated. He died within a week of onset of the disease, Southern District Health Board medical officer of health Dr Anura Jayasinghe said.

With the weather improving and people looking to get back out into their gardens, the man’s death was a timely reminder of the potential danger of Legionnaires disease, Dr Jayasinghe said.

“People should watch out for signs of legionellosis as early treatment is usually effective,” he said.

“Early symptoms can appear 2-10 days after exposure and are similar to the flu.”

The infection can cause a cough, shortness of breath, high fever, muscle pains, headaches, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhoea.

Anyone handling potting mix, soils or compost should wear a good quality mask, wear gloves to protect against skin infections, open bags in a well ventilated space, and wash their hands thoroughly after finishing work, Dr Jayasinghe said.

Teen supported NZME A union is throwing its support behind a teenager at the centre of the investigations into the devastating SkyCity fire.

Nothing is yet proven about the cause of the fire, and E tuū union, like everyone else, is waiting for the findings of the inquiry, E tuū special negotiator Joe Gallagher said.

“Anyone can make a mistake and people in construction work in hazardous environments. The fire is a reminder of that,” he said. “But it’s been good to see the main conversation about the young guy so far has been one of concern.”

The union is supporting the apprentice.

students are several who call the Ashburton district home.

While the school year is winding down, the band season is winding up as members work towards the national championships in March, pipe band director Richard Hawke said.

The school band travels overseas every second year to compete in the world championships. In 2013 they won the juvenile international title and in 2018 were runners-up.

This year’s band includes lead side drummer Monte Stam who was placed third in the recent world solo drum championships in Glasgow and top performer Campbell Wilson as pipe sergeant.

Stac Attack was last on stage in Ashburton two years ago and the event centre is one that’s always high on the list of the band’s best performances venues, Hawke said.

Tickets for Stac Attack are available at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre.

Labour of love in Somerset Garden

By Susan Sandys

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Working away in her garden has been a healing time for Penny Greenslade.

Named Somerset Garden, the one-hectare creation is among four beautiful properties to feature at tomorrow’s fourth biennial Homegrown Garden Tour and Fete, run by Mayfield Playcentre.

The others are Sara and Blair Gallagher’s Rangiatea, Mike and Nicky Salvesen’s Wakare, and Sara and Paul Grigg’s Surrey Hills Station.

“I have always gardened, it’s been a labour of love,” Greenslade said.

She added that doing something she enjoyed so much was helping her come to terms with grief after losing her beloved younger sister last year.

Janey Walsh – mother, wife and lawyer – died tragically at the age of 37 in a cycling accident in Timaru.

“Janey and I were exceptionally close,” Greenslade said.

Greenslade had cried many a time since as she spent time in the garden, but at the same time felt much peace in that she could sense Janey’s presence in the beautiful setting.

She said she had felt privileged to take on the garden from husband Mark’s parents

Betty and John Greenslade about seven years ago.

It was fantastic to be able to extend the space and add new plants to the space, where deciduous and evergreen native and exotic trees dwarf a network of pathways, surrounded by hostas, trilliums and Mt Peel lillies. Roses, rhododendrons and spring bulbs combined with perennials provide an abundance of colour.

Mark and Penny are parents to 12-year-old Georgia, 10-year-old Louise and seven-year-old Charlie, who have also been out helping as the garden tour and fete drew closer.

The fete will be held in an adjoining paddock at the Greenslade farm.

Fete co-ordinator Jane Harrison said more than 40 stalls would feature, with an array of homewares, garden sculptures, clothing, jewellery and food on offer.

Mayfield Playcentre president Victoria Morrow said earnings from this year’s event would be put towards the running of the centre over the following two years.

Tickets will be sold at the gates on the day for $30, or $10 just for the fete. For more information visit The Homegrown Garden Tour Facebook page.

Mark and Penny Greenslade are looking forward to welcoming crowds to Somerset Garden tomorrow for the Homegrown Garden Tour and Fete.

No progress on cat shooting inquiry

By Jaime Pitt-MacKay Jaime.p@theguardian.co.nz

No further information has come through in relation to a cat being shot by an air rifle in Hampstead earlier this month.

Oscar the cat, who belongs to Hampstead woman Annette Whyte, returned home with an air rifle wound. She said he was also shot last year.

An SPCA investigation into the recent shooting is continuing and an inspector said they will do a flyer drop in the area looking for more information on the incident, but that unfortunately no more in-

formation had become available.

“Our investigation showed there was only one cat that was shot, named Oscar,” a spokesperson aid.

“X-rays showed two slug gun pellets. One appeared to be an older wound, this had healed. Although the pellet was still imbedded in his skin, they were able to remove it using local anaesthetic.”

Whyte said Oscar was continuing to do well, and that a few people had contacted her who she had directed to the SPCA, but unfortunately no information had come from it.

Your Local MP I’m available to meet with constituents on Mondays and Fridays and any day that Parliament isn’t sitting. Contact my office in Ashburton to make an appointment to meet or speak with me.

The SPCA said there had been several reported cat shootings that had been investigated across the country in the past 12 months.

If an investigation gathers enough evidence to prove a particular person is shooting cats, the SPCA can lay a charge of ill treatment, under the Animal Welfare Act. “We ask anyone who witnessed this latest incident, who has further information about it, or anyone in the surrounding area whose cat has been injured in a similar way to please call SPCA and lodge an animal welfare complaint.”

■■UNITED STATES

California burning AP A stolen car sparked a wildfire in a bone-dry field yestrday as two of Southern California’s quintessential themes – car chases and gusty Santa Ana winds – collided with potentially devastating consequences.

The hot car ignited dry grass in a field in the city of Jurupa Valley east of Los Angeles and strong winds that have menaced the region quickly spread the flames, burning homes and forcing residents to flee.

The frightening scenario was among the latest to erupt as exceptionally dry conditions and vicious gusts have contributed to destructive fires that forced tens of thousands of evacuations across the state while other Californians endured dayslong deliberate power outages aimed at preventing electric lines from sparking fires.

Several blazes broke out in the heavily populated inland region east of Los Angeles as the strong, seasonal Santa Ana winds continued to gust up to 60km/h were predicted to last until the evening before they fade away.

Riverside police were chasing suspected car thieves after midnight when the driver tried to shake them by ploughing through fields and lots, Riverside Police Officer Ryan Railsback said.

The damaged vehicle pulled to a stop in a field in Jurupa Valley, where the driver and passenger bolted.

The two men, both wanted on outstanding warrants, were caught as heat from the vehicle caused grasses to combust.

Authorities plan to charge them with arson.

“We put that burden on the crooks,” Railsback said, explaining the criminal charge.

“They’re the ones leading this chase.”

The blaze spread to 121ha and destroyed three homes and two outbuildings, the Riverside County Fire Department said. Evacuations were ordered.

The fire came as another broke out in neighbouring San Bernardino County and the day after several other blazes forced evacuations in the region, including one that circled the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley and another in Jurupa Valley

Block contestant in court A contestant who appeared on the 2015 season of The Block Australia will appear in court after being charged with extorting her Tinder date and holding him against his will. Suzi Taylor, who won $349,000 with Yvonne Cosier in season 11 of the reality series, is accused of luring her victim via Tinder and then allegedly assaulting him for money, in what is known as “honey potting”. Queensland Police said a 33-year-old man attended a home in the riverside suburb of New Farm, Brisbane just after midnight on October 30 after allegedly meeting with Taylor. She allegedly demanded money from him a short time later. “When the man didn’t comply, another man allegedly entered the room and assaulted the 33-year-old man and held him against his will,” police said.

Firemen battle the California blazes. that forced the evacuation of two mobile home parks and a psychiatric nursing care facility.

Elderly patients wearing breathing masks and wrapped in blankets were taken out of the Riverside Heights Healthcare Center in wheelchairs and gurneys as smoke swirled overhead.

The blaze grew to 80ha in size before it was stopped.

“There was one moment when I could see nothing but dark smoke and I was like, ‘We’re going to die,’” said Qiana McCracken, assistant director of nursing.

California has been under a fire siege for several weeks as strong, dry winds out of the desert have fanned flames at both ends of the state and prompted widespread power outages to prevent electric lines from sparking infernos.

Electrical equipment has caused some of California’s worst wildfires, including last year’s fire that destroyed the town of Paradise and killed 85 people.

More than 350,000 Californians statewide remained without power as part of an effort by utility companies to prevent trees and vegetation from blowing into powerlines and causing fires.

The waves of dayslong outages have been angrily condemned by state officials and consumers.

In the Northern California city of Novato, at least 20 seniors with wheelchairs and walkers were essentially trapped in the dark in a low-income apartment complex during a two-day power shut-off.

PG&E Corp. CEO Bill Johnson acknowledged hardships but said outages will be neces-

sary in the future as seasonal fire threats increase.

“As long as they remain the best tool that we have to keep people safe, and our communities safe, they’re the tool we will use,” he said.

PG&E equipment that wasn’t de-energised may have ignited a massive blaze in Sonoma County wine country that has destroyed 141 homes.

Electrical equipment may have also ignited the fire that started in Simi Valley, west of Los Angeles, which prompted evacuation orders for about 30,000 people.

The cause of that fire was not yet determined, but Southern California Edison filed a report required by state regulators to say it began near its power lines.

SoCal Edison had not cut power in the area at the time this fire started.

Sex scenes welcomed For some actors, getting their kit off and having to shoot a sex scene in front of an entire film crew is awkward, to say the least. But 74-year-old Oscar winner Dame Helen Mirren isn’t bothered by it. In fact, she admits for her it’s quite the opposite.

“I loved every minute of it,” she said of having to film sex scenes with not one but two men in her new show Catherine the Great, which hits streaming on Foxtel on Sunday. The four-part series gives a lavish look at the life – and lovers – of the famous Russian empress, who lived in the 18th century. “Catherine was a serial monogamist and one of her lines was, ‘I’m in love with love’,” Mirren added.

“She was a woman who always wanted to have a man, but she didn’t want to relinquish power. She loved sex and she loves a sexual relationship, but when she wanted to get rid of them after, she’d give them palaces or something.”

or the last 25 years, Safer Ashburton has been providing a wealth of support and services to our community.

From small beginnings it has grown to meet the increasingly diverse needs of the district’s changing population. The Guardian traces the history of the organisation from those humble beginnings.

Whether you are young or old, have lived in Ashburton all your life, or only recently arrived here, Safer Ashburton’s services are likely to have touched you or someone you know.

While it started out in a small way as part of a national trial, it has grown to now be an essential part of the Ashburton District’s social framework.

Over the past 25 years, Safer Ashburton has become a tremendous community asset, one in which many people have been involved.

The organisation has been constantly evolving, moving into new fields and along the way has also undergone changes of name – Safer Community Council, Safer Ashburton and, from this weekend, it will be known as Safer Mid Canterbury.

That move is being made by the trustees of the organisation to better reflect that the organisation’s services are delivered to every corner of the district, from the Rangitata to the Rakaia and the alps to the sea, general manager Kevin Clifford said.

“We don’t want there to be any confusion that we can support everyone in our district. Wherever you live in Mid Canterbury, we’re here to support you and your family/ whanau.”

Other than the name change and a slight change to the logo, there will be no other changes to the organisation’s brand. It will be business as usual.

“We’re happy with the way we look and as always we want as much of our funding as possible to go to supporting the people that we work with,” Kevin said.

Above – Members of Safer Ashburton’s newcomers network working together to create a warm and welcoming community in the Ashburton District.

The history

rom humble beginnings as part of a two-year pilot programme, Safer Ashburton has, in the past 25 years, grown to become the largest locally-driven provider of community services in the Ashburton District.

In 1990, Ashburton joined Christchurch, Wairoa and Manukau City as the trial centres for the Safer Community Council scheme, started under Labour Prime Minister Geoffrey Palmer. Further funding was confirmed, by then Prime Minister Jim Bolger, at a crime prevention seminar in Wellington in 1993. The following year, the Ashburton Safer Community Council (which became Safer Ashburton) became a legal entity.

Ashburton Mayor Geoff Geering was instrumental in helping spearhead the initiative in Ashburton as a way to focus on reducing and preventing crime in the communities.

At the time, New Zealand was in the midst of an economic downturn, but Geering recalls there was a willingness to pull together to help make a difference.

“The economy was not great but people thought ‘what can we do to help’?” he said.

“A lot of good things have started here in Ashburton and we have had first-class people running them. As a council, we were supportive of people who were wanting to create a safer community.”

Safer Ashburton has had a dual board structure from its inception – a wider group of members who are representatives of organisations and

agencies in the Ashburton District, and a smaller core group of people who are the trustees of the organisation.

Susan Wall was appointed as the first coordinator and was based at the Ashburton Police Station. The organisation wasted no time getting down to business, introducing anger management courses and personal development workshops for teens; lobbying government for a standard drinking age and enforcement of liquor laws; organising Smile Day, and making plans for a new Ashburton Youth Centre.

In 2006, Kevin Clifford was appointed as general manager and continued to build on the good work that had been achieved in the previous decade.

“When I arrived, there were five services and it has grown three-fold since then,” Kevin said.

“We’ve seen change in the make-up of the district and the services we offer.

We’re providing now for a changing demographic, there’s more people and a more diverse community.”

Within a year of starting, Kevin increased services, and began tapping into new funds available from central government agencies. This has formed long-lasting relationships between Safer Ashburton and local and national organisations.

“Instead of us constantly chasing work, agencies now chase us. We’ve worked hard to achieve that.”

A growth phase saw

Safer Ashburton roll out an initiative with police to stamp out graffiti; work with the Mountain Safety Council; provide home safety and accident prevention training; and build a garden in partnership with Hakatere Marae. A family wellbeing service was also started with funding from the Ministry of Social Development; the SEEDS programme (Sharing Everyday Experiences and Drawing on Skills) was launched, and town safety ambassadors were introduced.

When the 2011 earthquakes hit Canterbury, Ashburton welcomed an influx of people requiring support. To this day, there’s a closer link between Christchurch and Ashburton with many people still working in the city but living in the Ashburton District.

The following year was a more unsettling time. Safer Ashburton and 30 other community groups were left homeless after the Tancred St Community House building was declared earthquake prone. The organisation then moved to 20 William Street.

The good work continued, regardless, and was confirmed in 2013, when the Mid Canterbury Newcomers’ Network was named Supreme Winner at the Trustpower Community Awards, followed by numerous awards for projects such as Think First, SEEDS and the Families Without Violence network.

In 2016, Safer Ashburton relocated to a more permanent home in the new Community House building on Cass Street.

“As on other occasions, we were able to continue with our work thanks to the generosity of the community,” Kevin said.

“The Ashburton District Council, in particular, has been very supportive of us and none of our work would have been possible without its backing.

“We started out as a great idea, involving conversations with central government and people like Geoff Geering working hard

advocating for it. It has been an incredibly successful partnership between the community, local government and central government.”

Safer Ashburton today

T

oday, Safer Ashburton’s services span many areas including community safety, crime prevention, supporting vulnerable families, migrants, youth justice clients, adult offenders, and holiday and outdoor adventure based programmes for children from a wide cross section of our community.

The organisation aims to provide positive opportunities and pathways for change that are free and confidential. Many of these services have an early intervention focus on supporting families and individuals to make good choices.

Safer Ashburton employs more than 20

staff, working across 15 contract areas, and is continuing to grow. It also employs staff on behalf of other small, non-profit organisations including Mid Canterbury Newcomers’ Network, Hype Youth Health Centre and Neighbourhood Support. By handling the day-to-day management and employment, Safer Ashburton helps these smaller entities to save on overhead costs and provides direction and support.

A recent milestone for Safer Ashburton was leading the work for the recent accreditation of Ashburton as a Safe Community, supported by ACC and Ashburton District Council.

This work brought together 27 different agencies from around the district, to develop a strategic plan, to make Ashburton a safer place to live, work and play.

It has also partnered with the Mid Canterbury Rural Support Trust to deliver the Rural Driver Licensing Scheme, which

supports newcomer/migrant women living rurally to obtain their New Zealand driver’s licence.

From June 2020, Safer Ashburton District will be delivering the Refugee Settlement Support Service under a new contract with the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.

The service will assist families to make a new home here and ensure they are connected to organisations and services that can support them with other needs.

This year, the organisation secured funding to develop and deliver the Lives Worth Living project in response to heightened issues around mental wellbeing, self-harm and suicide for our district.

It has employed two staff to co-ordinate this project, who will develop educational workshops and support groups, identify risks in the community, and educate the community on how to respond to them.

■■TOP EARNERS

Tech revenue jumps to $12 billion nology firms, which made up about half of the TIN200, up 15.9 per cent.

High-tech manufacturing grew 7 per cent, biotech at 6 per cent, and Fintech delivering the fastest growth at 26.9 per cent.

The report says the top 200 companies employed more than 50,000 people around the world, with more than half of the staff based in New Zealand.

The companies’ export earnings rose 11.3 per cent to a record $8.7b, primarily to Australia and North America.

On that basis the sector is the third biggest export earner behind dairy and tourism, and just ahead of meat.

“Through an overwhelming number of key metrics, our tech export sector is sending a strong message that it has the potential to become our country’s leading source of offshore income,” Shanahan said.

The top tech companies include Datacom, Fisher and

Paykel Healthcare, Fisher and Paykel Appliances, Xero, and Weta Digital.

The report said there was a strong pipeline of emerging companies, generating growth at both ends of the top-200 list.

Seven TIN200 companies received overseas investment, with a total $326m invested, including $206m raised by Rocket Lab. The report says the Wellington region had the strongest growth in dollar and percentage terms, with sales rising 17.5 per cent, but North Auckland and Otago have also had double-digit growth over the past five years.

Shanahan said there was untapped potential for other regions to get involved and take advantage of the opportunities offered by the tech sector.

Tech companies on average spent about 11 per cent of revenue on research and development, which reached more than $1b for the first time.

As bad or worse than the actual handouts are the behavioural effects across the economy of the explosion of government intervention.

The assumption has again become that close relations with the Government of the day are more important than the commercial integrity of projects when seeking government contracts.

The easiest way to secure regulatory relief, a dollop of cash to drop straight to the bottom line or other commercial advantage is through side negotiations or media stunts rather than following formal processes.

The classic example remains the NZ International Convention Centre scandal, for which Joyce and Gerry Brownlee blame each another.

That fiasco is notorious only because we know so much about it thanks to the subsequent Auditor-General’s inquiry.

No such sunlight has yet been shone on the current Government’s administration of the transport portfolio or the Provincial Growth Fund, and Wellington has become so used to unusual dealings that it probably never will be.

On this path lies the type of corruption and misallocation of resources that leads to poor economic performance, social incohesion through the rise of a commercial-political elite, and worsening inequality.

Getting off this path to South America requires a Government to one day step up and abolish the apparatus of the corporate-welfare state and restore the integrity of decision-making processes.

Making an example of Rio Tinto would be a start.

f tantrums are rewarded, toddlers learn to throw them again.

The same is true of multinational companies.

Yet again, the Tiwai Point aluminium smelter claims it will be forced to close unless it gets another taxpayer handout. Its management says that while it made a $220 million profit last year, the price of aluminium has since dropped 25 per cent so it is now losing money.

As usual, the threat comes with suggestions that closure would slash Southland’s GDP by 6.5 per cent, cut exports by $600m and cost 1000 high-paying jobs in Invercargill, which would presumably also crash its property market.

In turn, shutting the smelter would cause a surplus of electricity in New Zealand, so the Huntly power station would close too, devastating that Waikato town.

We’ve heard most of this before.

This time, to add to the sense of drama, the smelter’s majority owner, Rio Tinto, has revealed it has sent a “closure team” to Bluff to plan for the shutdown.

Local National MP Sarah Dowie has been nicely co-opted, warning that the smelter is not bluffing this time. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern also went on the public record last December, talking about the importance of the smelter and pledging her support when she re-opened a potline that added 31 tonnes of production capacity.

The smelter has every reason to believe that her Government will respond to the threats of closure the same way as John Key’s and Helen Clark’s.

It took enormous political will after 1984 for the Lange Government to dismantle the inherently corrupt system of subsidies, protection and corporate welfare constructed by the Muldoon regime and its predecessors – but its reward was a bigger share of the vote in 1987 to an extraordinary 48 per cent.

The corporate-welfare cancer returned in 1999 when the Alliance’s Jim Anderton was appointed to the newly created role of Minister of Economic Development.

Sadly, this was not a mere ceremonial title to keep Clark’s coalition partner happy, but came with a “jobs machine” and new Ministry of Economic Development which later became the core of Steven Joyce’s Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.

Anderton can perhaps be forgiven. His Alliance Party stood unashamedly for the restoration of New Zealand’s pre-1984 Polish Shipyard model.

Less forgivable – especially those from the National Party – are the Ministers of Economic Development who have followed him, each one worse than the one before.

As if to establish this rule beyond doubt, the incumbent is Labour’s Phil Twyford.

By the end of the Key-EnglishJoyce era, the Taxpayers’ Union estimated that $1.6 billion was being spent annually on corporate welfare, or $931 per household.

With the advent of the Provincial Growth Fund, it may now be approaching twice that.

To be fair to Rio Tinto, which made a profit of around $22b last year, its shareholders have received only a tiny slither of this.

OUR VIEW

Marriage of past, present and future N

ot many events could claim to having a history that runs back more than 140 years.

But that’s a claim to fame the Ashburton A&P Show can make.

This year is its 142nd. The first was held in 1878 and apart from a two-year gap during World War Two there’s been an Ashburton show every year.

Back in the day every town large or small had its own show.

The event was one the community eagerly looked forward to; it was one of the few events that brought together urban and rural folk for a big day out.

Life was simpler, the opportunity to attend a social event was rare and the annual show was a highlight on the calendar. It meant days of planning – what to

eat, what to wear, plans made to meet up with friends and relatives and news carefully hoarded to exchange.

In many districts the event has long gone, the showgrounds carved up for subdivision or abandoned as grazing land. Not so in the Ashburton District.

We’ve managed to keep all three of our A&P shows in business and that’s got everything to do with forward-thinking committees who’ve shown a willingness to

change with the ages.

From time to time, they’ve taken stock and asked themselves whether what they’re turning on year after year was still relevant. The honest and the brave changed. The head-in-the-sand committees signed their show’s death warrant.

Our shows may be light years away from their original form, but they’re modern day winners on every front. Take Ashburton. It marries the best of the past with the best of the future, and manages to provide a tempting peek into the future.

In many memory banks, however, old style shows will always survive.

Show day meant a new dress, a mum who spent days planning and preparing food, a dad who

dusted off his sports jacket and got a twinkle in his eye as he planned to meet his brothers and farming mates in the booth later in the day. That small pleasure was worth the ire of a wife he knew would be forced to wait endlessly in the car with two tired kids – and then who would be forced to drive home.

The show as a child meant white bread ham sandwiches, cream sponge, laden cake tins and endless cups of tea for the adults. If you were lucky it also meant hot dogs, candy floss, plenty of fizzy and money to spend in side show alley, a vastly different and definitely dodgier place than it is today.

When you hit secondary school, show day was an occasion to meet boys. We all thought it

was easy to hide in plain sight for an illicit assignation but mothers apparently have eyes everywhere.

Many a teenage show day ended tensely with terse words spoken and a sulk in the backseat of the car.

Much of the above hasn’t changed. Kids still scoff rubbish food, albeit there are now plenty of healthy options on offer, girls chase boys, boys chase girls and dads – and mums – drink beer.

Show day(s) are now a much more casual affair. Their specialness has gone, lost in the plethora of events and entertainment we have to choose from. But thanks to our hard working and forward thinking committees we have an absolutely cracking event that is a winner on every front for competitors and attendees alike.

after holding him for 17 months.

In 1994, a jury in Pensacola, Florida, convicted Paul Hill of murder for the shotgun slayings of an abortion provider and his bodyguard; Hill was executed in September 2003.

In 2000, American astronaut Bill Shepherd and two Russian cosmonauts, Yuri Gidzenko and Sergei Krikalev, became the first residents of the international space station.

In 2004, President George W. Bush was elected to a second term as Republicans strengthened their grip on Congress. Dutch

filmmaker Theo van Gogh was slain in Amsterdam after receiving death threats over his movie Submission, which criticised the treatment of women under Islam.

Ten years ago: A suicide bomber killed 35 people outside a bank near Pakistan’s military headquarters in Rawalpindi.

Five years ago: Islamic State group extremists shot dead at least 50 Iraqi men, women and children from the same Sunni tribe. A Taliban suicide bomber killed 60 in an attack on a paramilitary checkpoint in Pakistan close to

the Wagah border crossing with India.

One year ago: The Trump administration restored US sanctions on Iran that had been lifted under the 2015 nuclear deal but carved out exemptions for eight countries that would still be able to import Iranian oil. The oldest victim of the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, 97-year-old Rose Mallinger, was laid to rest in the last of the funerals for the 11 victims.

Thought for today: “Our most dangerous tendency is to expect too much of government, and at the same time do for it too little.”

TODAY IN HISTORY Today is Saturday, November 2, the 306th day of 2019. There are 59 days left in the year.

Today’s highlight in history: On November 2, 1948, President Harry S. Truman surprised the experts by winning a narrow upset over Republican challenger Thomas E. Dewey.

On this date: In 1783, General George Washington issued his Farewell Address to the Army near Princeton, New Jersey.

In 1898, old-age Pensions Act becomes law. A world first, the Act gave a small means-tested pension to elderly people with few assets who were ‘of good moral character’. It was one of the major achievements of Richard Seddon’s Liberal government.

In 1917, British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour issued a declaration expressing support for a “national home” for the Jews in Palestine.

In 1944, over 800 Polish refugees disembarked in Wellington, seeking safety from war-torn Europe. For the 733 children and 102 adults it was the end of a long and perilous journey.

In 1947, Howard Hughes piloted his huge wooden flying boat, the Hughes H-4 Hercules (derisively dubbed the Spruce Goose by detractors), on its only flight, which lasted about a minute over Long Beach Harbor in California.

In 1962, President John F. Kennedy delivered a brief statement to the nation in which he said that aerial photographs had confirmed that Soviet missile bases in Cuba were being dismantled, and that “progress is now being made toward the restoration of peace in the Caribbean”.

In 1963, South Vietnamese President Ngo Dihn Diem was assassinated in a military coup.

In 1986, kidnappers in Lebanon released American hospital administrator David Jacobsen

Our culture on show D

o you think we have a culture?

If you are not of Maori descent, in other words you tick NZ European on many official forms, do we have a culture you can see, and experience?

When you look around this town, it is very evident we reflect a predominantly English and Scottish background.

Had we an information centre, would that have reflected our culture? What does a New Zealand culture look like, sound like, taste like or feel like?

This weekend is one of those big event weekends for this town with the annual A&P show in full swing.

If I had to take overseas visitors to at least see and maybe understand more of what I believe is my culture, I would take them there.

A&P shows take place all over New Zealand. They are a showcase of our culture.

For children the show is an open world of tomato sauce dripping hot dogs and the smell of horse poo. Of grease-smelling fun rides bearing the wear marks on handles of the thousands of children who have nervously sat in them.

There are enticing sideshow stalls with the promise of big

Peter Livingstone OUT OF SCHOOL

wins that seem too good to be true.

Many times the people working the stalls offer a hint of a world many of us know nothing about. The character faces and crinkled tan lines tell of earning a living that is not the normal nine to five job.

For the animal lovers it is a feast of finery. Well-loved pets and working animals are brushed, cleaned, fed treats and fussed over to be at their best.

I must admit I wouldn’t know the first thing about how to judge a good-looking rooster (they remind me of Trump) but the passion of the people who present them is evident.

Even as a desk jockey, there is something earthy about walking down the stalls, watching as your children squeal at the sight of lambs and piglets. The smell and noise bring back memories of the time you had guinea pigs and one got out into the neigh-

bour’s garden.

The machinery displays draw in all who love metal and motors.

From motorbikes, to utes, to tractors and those huge thingys with big metal bits that do stuff with earth (seriously I have no idea what half of that stuff would do), the world of farm implements is a bold statement of size and power.

I remember sneaking my boys onto bikes and tractors to sit on, wishing I could do the same.

Imagine the shed you would need to store that gear, makes my double garage look like a doll’s house.

And there is even more. Have a look at this year’s programme and tell me this is not New Zealand culture. From sheep judging and dog trials to shearing and a demonstration by the fire brigade, life in New Zealand is on display.

In the ring, the stalwarts of any A&P show will be going through their paces. Whether it’s a Shetland pony, a Clydesdale or a working hunter, the hooves will gallop, trot and jump throughout both days. At the end, will be ribbons and presentations, and plenty of stories of how it was madness out the back, trying to be ready for the moment of judging in the ring.

And wandering through all of this will be all types of people drawn to the showgrounds for many reasons. From farmers having a yarn while leaning on the newest baler, to groups of teenage girls, madly texting their friends while checking out the group of guys by the ferris wheel trying to look cool.

There will be politicians, principals and priests. Bogans, builders and beauticians. Dairy workers, dancers and drivers.

The chance of hearing another language will be high, or maybe hearing language you haven’t heard before!

To go to the show is to be part of New Zealand’s culture. It’s two days of pavlova paradise that everyone needs to experience. While it may be brief in its existence, its significance is ever lasting.

Taste, see, smell, hear and feel New Zealand this weekend at the show.

YOUNG TRIO’S TIME TO SHINE

By Erin Tasker

erin.t@theguardian.co.nz

Three young cricketers will make their Mid Canterbury senior debuts in this weekend’s annual Ron Biggar Memorial Trophy clash with South Canterbury in Timaru.

Angus Jemmett, Tom Middleton and Devon Flannery are the three new faces in a Mid Canterbury team that will head to Aorangi Oval with a bit of confidence, hopeful that their blend of youth and experience will get the job done.

One player who won’t be there though, is Matt Winter. The past captain and wicket keeper is focusing on coaching rugby sevens at the moment, so is unavailable, and while Mid Canterbury coach Garfield Charles said Winter will be missed, he has confidence in the 12 players selected for the first game.

James Southby will take over the captaincy while William Southby will don the keeping gloves, and Charles said all 12 players will feature in some way tomorrow due to different rules pre-season.

“You bat 11 and you bowl 11, but all 12 can play,” Charles said.

This season is a bit different for Mid Canterbury, with Mid Canterbury Cricket’s Saturday afternoon senior cricket grade no more, two teams playing in the Canterbury Country senior grade, and the rest playing in a mid-week shortened version of the game, which will start next week.

“What it has made harder is the fact that the local guys that we are picking from are mainly playing T20 cricket, and we’ve got to pick guys to play two days,” Charles said.

Also making Mid Canterbury’s

Ashburton College’s Angus Jemmett is one of three new faces in the Mid Canterbury cricket team for this weekend’s annual clash with South Canterbury.

PHOTO ROBYN HOOD 261019-RH-037 life harder this year will be the fact that, due to its unpredictability, the pitch at the Ashburton Domain oval is being redone, putting it out of action for the summer.

So Mid Canterbury’s home Hawke Cup games this season will be played at Timaru’s Aorangi Oval – the venue for tomorrow’s game – and while they’ll have to travel, they’ll at least have consistency, Charles said.

Mid Canterbury’s Hawke Cup campaign for 2019/20 will begin in Timaru against South Canterbury on December 7 and 8, and Charles said he’s excited to see what his side is potentially capable of this season.

“We might be short on bowlers. We’ve got Richard (Turpie) and Deon (Biggs) playing, and Jay

Houston, but a lot of the bowlers are out injured or unavailable,” Charles said.

“So we might be short of a gallop, but Tom Middleton is a useful addition, and so is Angus Jemmett.”

Middleton is a strong opening bowler, while Jemmett is a handy off-spin option and along with Flannery, the three youngsters will be keen to make the most of the opportunity they’ve been given.

Mid Canterbury is without the services of three other potential young players this weekend, in the form of Archie Redfern, Harry McMillan and Ben Innes.

The three locals all attend school in Christchurch, where Redfern’s Christchurch Boys’

High School side is this weekend up against Innes and McMillan’s St Andrews College team in a Gillette Cup semi-final.

They’re likely to come into the mix as the season goes on, though, and Charles is hopeful there will be real competition for spots as the season progresses.

After tomorrow’s game – which gets under way at 10.30am – Mid Canterbury will head to Rangiora to play Canterbury Country in another pre-season match next weekend.

The Mid Canterbury team is: Deon Biggs, Devon Flannery, Nick Gilbert, Bo Houston, Jay Houston, Angus Jemmett, Des Kruger, Tom Middleton, Tom Ravenscroft, James Southby, William Southby, Richard Turpie.

Changes made at the top

By Erin Tasker

erin.t@theguardian.co.nz

A few players away means some of Mid Canterbury’s open grade tennis teams will have a different look to them today.

Among those not playing today is one of the competition’s newest recruits, top ranked Australasian youngster Deigo Quispe-Kim, whose Fairton team has shown early on that they’ll be one of the toughest teams to beat this season.

Fairton are top-of-the-table after two rounds, joint at the top of the table on 17 points with Southern – the team that they’re set to play today when round three gets under way at the Ashburton Trust Tennis Centre.

Had both Fairton and Southern both been at full strength, Quispe-Kim would have found himself up against a young local who has been in good form so far this season in Sam Bubb.

But Bubb is away this weekend, so his deputy Gareth Evans will step up to the number one spot in his absence, and he will play Connor Brosnahan, who will also step up from number two in Quispe-Kim’s absence.

They’re not the only two teams without their usual number ones this weekend – Methven and Hampstead are in the same boat.

With Methven’s Cameron McCracken away and Hampstead’s Peter Leonard on Ashburton A&P Show duty with work, their number twos will also move up to the number one spots for the day.

Tyler Leonard will play at number one for Methven, where he will take on Hampstead’s Peter Kirwan – a clash which could well go either way.

And that will be the story of the overall clash, too, with little between the two sides in the middle of the points table.

It’s a similar story at the top of the order in the day’s other game, where the usual

Gareth Evans will play at number one for Southern today, when the Mid Canterbury Tennis open grade competition resumes after a week off.

PHOTO ASHBURTON GUARDIAN number ones are set to take to the court for what will no doubt be another interesting battle between two players who have met on court many times in the past.

The two teams down at the bottom of the table and without a win yet – Allenton and Dorie – will play in the day’s other match, where Allenton’s Jason Feutz and Dorie’s Rhys Cromie will both be looking for their first singles win of the competition.

In the first two weeks, both Feutz and

Cromie have experienced the force that is Quispe-Kim and both managed to get just the one game off the youngster, while Cromie’s other loss was to last year’s Gala Cup men’s singles champion McCracken.

Feutz started the season against Mid Canterbury Tennis coach Jack Tiller, who was a last minute fill-in for an injured Peter Leonard back in round one, and while he gave him a run for his money, Tiller won out in the end.

Next weekend Mid Canterbury’s top players will be joined by some of Canterbury’s top players, when the Christchurch premier grade makes another appearance in Ashburton.

Both the men’s and women’s competitions will make the trip south, so the local open grade competition will play at the Ashburton Trust Tennis Centre at the earlier than usual time of 11am, followed by the premier games at 2pm.

■■OPINION

Not one of the vintage Rugby World Cups

By Phil Gifford

A

few World Cup realities, and a fascinating theory from a double World Cup winning All Black.

Despite every effort by local people, and bravura performances by Japan’s Brave Blossoms, this hasn’t been one of the great Cups.

Some problems were bigger than the game, and unavoidable.

The harsh reality of a national tragedy like Typhoon Hagibis, with almost 100 people dead or missing, shakes the fragile, artificial construct that the theatre of sport will always be.

But other difficulties were self inflicted by the game itself.

The near hysteria of the tournament’s opening rounds over high tackles, with referees being hung out to dry by their own masters, was damaging enough, but worse still was the lack of policing of offside lines, so too often a team with smothering defence could kill entertaining play.

As a friend involved in the

game at high levels in New Zealand said after the Wales-South Africa semi-final, “If you were trying to sell the game to the world, would you want that crap to be your calling card?”

On a more parochial note, while every All Black supporter I’ve talked to in Japan is disappointed, there’s not the visceral despair that followed our worst night at a World Cup, the 2007 loss to France in the quarter-final in Cardiff.

There may not even be the uproar over coaching selection that followed 07.

Then there was an almost universal mood to immediately dump Graham Henry and his coaching team.

On NewstalkZB Murray Deaker called the team chokers and demanded Henry resign.

Laurie Mains, coach of the 1995 World Cup All Blacks, said “I am still amazed that Graham Henry has not resigned. It’s quite unbelievable.”

Undefeated All Black captain Buck Shelford said, “Ego is starting to control the affairs of

Graham Henry.

“The World Cup was a disaster.

It’s time to move on. We need a change.”

The NZRU stood by Henry, and four years later that decision paid off with the 2011 World Cup victory.

Which way the call on a new All Black coach will go is desperately hard to judge.

The public mood leans heavily to Scott Robertson, but if New Zealand Rugby sticks with Ian Foster, the backlash may not be as deep and bitter (albeit relatively brief when the All Blacks started winning) as it was when Henry was reappointed ahead of Robbie Deans.

We now know for sure that getting to the top is actually easier than staying there.

There’s still only been one back-to-back World Cup winning country. And that has nothing to do with the haka, the All Black tradition, or coming from a country where rugby is the national sport.

No, the reason Australia, South Africa, and England haven’t won

a repeat title is simple.

It’s bloody hard to do.

Win successive titles?

Try just getting to the final after you’ve won it.

In the first eight Cups the only defending champions to then even make the next final have been the All Blacks in 2011 and 2014, and England in 2003 and 2007. (The All Blacks won in ‘15, and England lost in ‘07).

Are the All Blacks broken, their aura shattered, and is all the rugby power now in the northern hemisphere?

Perhaps if we’d lost to Ireland as well as to England.

But one really bad day at the office doesn’t negate 23 years of the professional era in which the All Blacks have basically been to rugby what Brazil is to football, often leaders in not only success, but also style.

Having said that, will the foundation members of the World Cup squad for 2023 be based on the players who lost in Yokohama against England?

Will they have stored up the pain, and be ready to unleash

it all on opponents in France in four years’ time?

Maybe not.

Of the squad of 23 from the 2007 quarter-final debacle in Cardiff just two, Richie McCaw and Dan Carter, were in the game day squad for the triumphant 2011 World Cup final.

The retention rate from the players who lost to England last week in Yokohama may be smaller than you might expect.

Whether it’s Foster or Robertson at the helm, there’s now some massive rebuilding to be done with the All Blacks.

Kieran Read, Ben Smith, Sonny Bill Williams, and Ryan Crotty are gone for sure.

Every effort is being made to steer Sam Whitelock and Brodie Retallick through, but in 2023 Whitelock will be 35, and Retallick will be 32, with a shoulder that may feel much older.

The natural attrition rate of a game as physical as rugby will eliminate some more of the current crop, so a 2023 squad could be as different as the 2011 group was from the 2007 team.

■■ CRICKET

Tech the team to beat

By Erin Tasker

erin.t@theguardian.co.nz

They’re the team to beat in the Canterbury Country Cricket senior grade’s south section, but today Tech will face their first test from the north.

Today Tech will travel to Rolleston to meet in the middle and play a crossover match against an Ohoka side, and while they really have no idea what to expect, they’ll be doing just as they have done from day one this season – backing themselves.

There are two Ohoka teams in the north section, and the one Tech will play today is the one

known as the Ohoka Curry and Pavlova XI Pegasus – a team in a very different position from Tech.

While Tech’s on a roll, the Ohoka side has found wins hard to come by so far this season, and they’ve twice been dismissed for scores well below par.

So Tech will be looking to keep their momentum going, with just one game left to play in the first round after this one.

Meanwhile, Mid Canterbury’s other team in the competition, Allenton, are at home for the third week running and this week their opposition at the Ashburton Domain is Greendale.

Allenton have picked up just the one win so far this season, beating Weedons two weeks ago, and while they suffered a loss to Tech last weekend, they’re a team continuing to build week after week.

A team made up entirely of players originally from India, a lot of their players had never played competition cricket in New Zealand before, so this season under the Allenton banner was a whole new experience.

This is the first year Mid Canterbury has sent teams to the Canterbury Country competition to play.

It’s a move that came after the number of teams in the local senior grade dropped to three – a number that just wasn’t going to work.

So teams were given the option of joining in with Canterbury Country, or playing in a mid-week 18 over competition locally.

That competition will get under way this coming week, with eight teams taking part.

After having no senior team last season, Allenton now have the team in the Canterbury Country competition, and three in the mid-week competition – the Allenton Wanderers, The Phat Duck

Allenton, and Progressive Livestock Allenton.

Coldstream has two teams – the Coldstream Kings and the Coldstream Old Boys – while Lauriston and Methven have one each, as do Rakaia.

In round one, Methven will host Rakaia, while Lauriston will host the Allenton Wanderers, and at the Ashburton Domain the Coldstream Old Boys will play The Phat Duck Allenton, and the Coldstream Kings will play Progressive Livestock Allenton.

All of those games will get under way at 6pm on Wednesday evening.

England takes first blood in T20 series opener NZME There were fewer stars, fewer overs and much smaller stakes, but the beginning of New Zealand’s build-up to the next Cricket World Cup has begun in the same way their last Cup campaign ended – with a loss to England.

In their first meeting since the fateful ODI World Cup final, England took the opening game of the five-match Twenty20 series, toppling the Black Caps by seven wickets.

Chasing 154 for victory at Hagley Oval, England did it with minimal stress – requiring no super overs or arcane tiebreakers to secure this particular victory.

Given the game’s relative lack of meaning, it was hardly a chance for revenge for the Black Caps – they’ll have to wait four years for that – but instead a chance to kick-start another elongated build-up, with 25 further Twenty20 clashes to come before the next World Cup rolls around in October.

On the basis of game one of 26, a better start with the bat will be the first thing on the agenda for coach Gary Stead to tweak.

Colin Munro and Martin Guptill, much maligned after poor partnerships in the United Kingdom series, couldn’t immediately reverse that in the shortest format, as the Black Caps were reduced to 7-1 after three overs.

A Tom Curran maiden over was followed by a wicket for his brother Sam, as Guptill

dragged a short ball onto his stumps whilst trying to alleviate the early pressure.

Munro and Tim Seifert did manage to whack three sixes in a 21-run over, but it was an innings bereft of an anchor and lacking rapid contributions.

Colin de Grandhomme came in and provided his usual blustering cameo – swatting his first ball lackadaisically for four before later bashing a one-handed six, but after reaching 73-2 after 10 overs, the Black Caps couldn’t quite push on.

Ross Taylor (44 from 35) and Daryl Mitchell (30 not out from 17) added 56 from 38 balls, but they couldn’t quite accelerate as they would have liked in the final throes, as all five of England’s bowlers produced reasonably economical efforts.

Part of that was due to a somewhat slowpaced pitch, with England also struggling at times to accumulate, with an 18-run Scott Kuggeleijn over their only early returns as they initially struggled to find the middle.

Mitchell Santner again showed his worth as a T20 bowler, claiming 3-23 with some delightful flight and deception, removing Dawid Malan, Jonny Bairstow and James Vince to give the hosts a sniff.

Unfortunately for the Black Caps, they were the only wickets to fall, and before his eventual dismissal, Vince had produced a match-winning display, bringing up his maiden Twenty20 half-century with a crucial 59 from 38 balls.

Coll ousted in semi-final

Paul Coll

Kiwi squash pro, Paul Coll has been beaten in the semi-finals of the Egyptian Open Platinum tournament in front of the pyramids yesterday morning by top seed and world No.1 Ali Farag (Egypt).

It’s the second straight year Coll has lost to Farag in the semis at the event with the Egyptian in top form in front of his home crowd for a 11-7, 11-6, 11-6 victory in 36 minutes.

Fifth ranked Coll, the highest non-Egyptian player in the world was in almost all of the rallies in the match, but Farag was able to keep the pressure on as the number of shots built and push for the errors.

Coll will next compete at the men’s World Championships in Doha, Qatar starting November 8. Fellow Kiwi Campbell Grayson is also in the world championships draw.

Ross Taylor tries in vain to get the Black Caps batting firing.

BY TIM SILVA

I

felt honoured when Bruce Bell asked me to pen a few words about the Ashburton Guardian and what it means to me.

Having only been in the district for 24 years (with an OE during that �me), I can’t profess to be a local – another 26 years and I’ll be ge�ng close. However, what I do know from my �me here is that our community benefits greatly from having its own independent and fiercely local voice.

The Ashburton Guardian remains an important part of the fabric that holds our community together.

When I first came to Ashburton in 1996, it was all about the rugby.

Wa�ers Cup was a ma�er of life and death with six strong Mid Canterbury sides playing for the honours. For me the most an�cipated part of the week was the Guardian’s Friday pre-game and Monday post-game write-ups.

The focus on the team and player performances would always mo�vate ac�on, especially when the performance of the mighty Cel�c side was ques�oned by the “unbiased” (pro-Allenton) reporter. This was our paper repor�ng on our sportspeople and it felt great to be part of it.

On returning to the district in 2004, I discovered everything had changed but nothing had changed. The Guardian was s�ll there and s�ll providing a strong spotlight on our district.

One of the key benefits for the Guardian is accessibility. If there’s a story to be told or an issue to be played out, it’s easy to access the Guardian team and have it promptly in print.

This, in turn, gives our community greater transparency on ma�ers that ma�er.

There have been countless issues that have been fully traversed as a community and the Guardian has played a pivotal part in this.

Whether it be a new bridge, an art gallery, the culling of tahr or water quality, we can and must rely on the Guardian to provide informa�ve, balanced commentary in order to ensure that we have the informa�on to form our own views. If we did not have a local voice, six days a week we would be the poorer for it, especially when news moves faster than weekly.

A key strength of the Guardian remains its

I

Tim Silva independence.

Maintaining this in the face of consolidating almost all regional papers is, in itself, a huge feat and is to be applauded. It is hugely impressive that the Guardian has managed to maintain its independence and viability in the face of media giants, digitalisa�on and adver�sing changes.

We, as a community, benefit with a con�nued feed of fiercely locally focused news.

Then we have specialised publica�ons. As an agribusiness professional, I believe we are very well served by Guardian Farming and Dairy Focus. Both are a must-read for me as they provide industry leading commentary that is tailored for NZ’s agri-powerhouse.

We have the best farmers in the world and the Guardian captures the vitals of farming in our region. Again, our community would be poorer without these specialised publica�ons, especially at a �me when farming appears to be under fire.

I wish the Guardian team all the best for the next stage.

Please keep up the good work, keep it coming and keep it local!

The Moose Turned South at Mount Somers

f you find any moose grazing in the Mid Canterbury back country, they have an incredible story to tell.

Around the �me Robert Bell purchased a financial interest in the Ashburton Guardian in 1900, they were liberated by the Hoki�ka Acclima�sa�on Society. Members of the society confidently an�cipated the moose would find their way into Canterbury and start a breeding programme there.

They were expected to journey through the Rakaia Gorge, but there was no men�on of crossing the Southern Alps. The Ashburton Guardian publicised their release and the sca�ered popula�on of Mid Canterbury waited.

Nearly 120 years later they’re s�ll wai�ng. Did the moose turn south at Mt Somers?

1900 was a year of growth and op�mism and its achievements were reflected in The Guardian. Irriga�on was in its infancy and the newspaper reported on the progress of the water race network. The Ruapuna system was extended, providing water to 20,000 acres of land.

Further afield bubonic plague threatened the world. Sydney was the hardest hit with the plague spreading to other Australian ci�es. In June the first death from bubonic plague was recorded in Auckland. This triggered our public health system as we know it today. The passing of the Public Health Act in October, 1900, was the first of its kind in the world.

The Boxer Rebellion, a fana�cal religious movement in China, broke out in June 1900. It resulted in the massacre of many Europeans in China, including the Bri�sh lega�on in Peking. It was put down by a combina�on of Bri�sh and other invading forces. Later It was reinvented by Hollywood in the movie 55 Days At Peking, starring David Niven, Ava Gardner and Charlton Heston, who single-handedly defeated the rebellion.

While women in New Zealand received the right to vote in parliamentary elec�ons in 1893, they could vote in local authority elec�ons. Therefore when Hugo Friedlander became Ashburton’s mayor in 1879, the year the newspaper was established, women in theory cast their vote.

As long as they owned or occupied property, they could vote. Whether they did or were encouraged to, is unknown.

But, 140 years ago when the Ashburton Guardian was founded, women’s suffrage was alive. How far it kicked was something else again.

Locals grab the chocolates John Morrison provides the locals with a bit of success at yesterday’s Methven Trotting Club meeting with Bettor Rock Again.

Morrison overcame an early mishap on the Warren Stapleton-trained runner, who galloped in the score up and caused a false start, but then recovered the second time around to produce a resounding victory.

Simon Shuker’s Code Cracker

Your Stars ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): You’ll get the urge to take a break before the work is done, and it’s an excellent idea. These things have a way of unfolding easily and beautifully under relaxed circumstances.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Like any other animal, you belong to the natural world and will thrive if you seize the chance. This connection is best facilitated with precautions such as bug spray, sunscreen and proper outdoor attire.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Isolation is like a bubble – an invisible barrier that keeps the outside world at a distance and untouchable. You’ll pierce this bubble for someone using only words and warmth.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): People are better at remembering beginnings and endings than they are middles. You’ll use this to your advantage today, making quite an impression with your entrances and exits.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): As a fire sign, you like to see the things you start take off, get exciting and change. You also know that even the hottest spark can’t ignite without something there to burn. Put yourself where the potential fuel is.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Staying flexible in your thinking has to do with releasing judgment and stretching into different ideas to try them on. They don’t have to fit for you to get the benefit of the stretch.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): One job well done doesn’t make a star. It’s the repeat performances with the kind of sparkle and professionalism that lends itself to a reputation for greatness.

Your star is on the rise.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): The problem you face isn’t about just you. It’s the whole group’s problem really. It just so happens that you’re the one who is best equipped to lead the pack in solving it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): People won’t know your talent until you tell them. There are different ways to go about this, and the direct way is the least effective. How can you allow people to stumble into this knowledge?

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Wherever you go, you want to make it better and more exciting for everyone. You go into it with a friendly attitude. Your quick physical and social reflexes bring youthful brightness.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): People are not aware of what they have (or what they lack) until someone next to them quite obviously has (or lacks) it. Thus gratitude (and resentment) are learned (and taught) behaviours.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): Get directly down to business, no explanations or qualifications are necessary.

What matters is getting it done. Stay focused until the finish, and then celebrate.
