Top award for Community House The efforts of a community determined to put the cold-blooded deeds of convicted killer Russell John Tully behind them was recognised in Ashburton last night when Community House Mid Canterbury won the supreme award at the Trustpower Ashburton District Community Awards.

Volunteers raised $1.6 million to buy and refurbish the former Work and Income building, where Tully killed two staff and shot another in 2014.

The new building is now home to a host of groups and incorporates a memorial area to commemorate the two women who lost their lives.

The project was led by a volunteer trust board, who will now represent the district at the national community awards next year.

Last night’s awards were presented by Mayor Angus McKay and Trustpower’s general manager of strategy and growth Peter Calderwood in front of more than 100 spectators, entrant nominators and volunteers.

In total, Trustpower gave away over $5000 to various community groups through the awards last night.

Trustpower community relations representative Emily Beaton said the volunteers entered in this year’s programme offered a great cross section of nominations, from the Willowby Pool Committee doing their bit by raising over $70,000 to upgrade their community pool, to volunteers at the Ashburton Museum and Historical Society who completed the mammoth job of shifting their collection into a new premises.

“This district really did blow me away – the high standard truly impressed me and it wasn’t an easy job for the judging panel that’s for sure,” she said.

“The amount of work being executed by volunteers in this district is incredible, people are really doing their bit and feel a sense of ownership and pride for all areas of the community.”

She said the Community House project was a stand-out because they managed to resurrect a building site which was linked with a tragic incident and refurbish it to be a new home for community groups to thrive in.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COURT

■ RIDING FOR THE DISABLED

Supervision sentence on indecency charges

New arrival means a step up for riders

A man traumatised by events which occurred during the February 22 Christchurch earthquake was yesterday sentenced to intensive supervision on indecency charges.

Glenn William Prattley, 22, lost his five-week-old daughter and his partner when a Manchester Street building collapsed on them during the quake. At the time it was reported he had pushed his sister out clear of the falling debris, saving her life, and later regained consciousness in hospital.

Yesterday he appeared in the Ashburton District Court for sentencing on two charges of indecent assault on a child under 16, and one of sending indecent material via a text message.

Judge David Saunders said Prattley’s offending was very much at the lower end of the scale in terms of indecency offending, but the conviction automatically activated a first strike warning under the system which imposes heavier penalties on repeat violent offenders.

“Sometimes people have

difficulty understanding why touching of an unwelcome nature would count as violence, but that is not my decision to make,” Judge Saunders said.

Mental health reports had provided an insight into Prattley’s offending and assisted in coming to a sentencing decision.

“I accept you have struggled with physical problems and mental health issues that came about because of the Canterbury earthquakes,” Judge Saunders said.

“There is help available to you – which is why I am extending to you a rehabilitative sentence, to help you overcome these very real difficulties.”

However Judge Saunders said Prattley carried the responsibility for taking advantage of the help offered.

“You have to be motivated to do better in the future,” he said.

While subject to sentence, Prattley will also be under judicial monitoring to keep the court informed of his progress.

The Mid Canterbury Riding for the Disabled (RDA) welcomed their newest member yesterday, Anover Rapunzel, a four-year-old clydesdale cross from Loburn.

Nine thousand dollars was raised between the Ashburton Rotary and Altrusa clubs which was gifted to RDA to enable them to buy a new horse.

Ashburton RDA coach Maxine Hooper said it’s a big deal getting a new horse.

“We needed a big clydesdale cross otherwise we couldn’t take bigger (older) riders.”

Altrusa Ashburton immediate past president Joan Dawn said the club heard that the RDA was “desperate” for new ponies when Maxine spoke at one of the club’s monthly meetings last year.

“We supported them with the purchase of the pony.”

Altrusa raised the money from their spring garden party held November last year along with fundraising efforts from movie nights and raffles.

Mrs Hooper said the Ashburton community was just amazing.

“We fundraise for the money we need but when we needed a horse the clubs swung into action and got the money for us.”

RDA Mid Canterbury has 40 children and volunteers, which caters to a range of riding abilities for the children.

Different programmes are tailored for the children depending on their different needs including mixing and conversations with others and meeting physical requirements.

Cera racks up $5m in travel costs

■ MT HUTT SKIFIELD

Pumped for opening day Staff have been training on the mountain in the lead up to Friday’s opening, working through health and safety requirements, lift operating, snow ploughing and road control.

Mr Urquhart was not aware of any bottlenecks with those looking for accommodation this season.

“I haven’t heard of anyone struggle to find accommodation – most of these people are pretty savvy and have that well organised ahead of time,” he said.

The high return rate also assists, in that a number of people live in the same place as they have previously.

Staff on Mt Hutt skifield are pumped for opening day on Friday.

There’s a whisper of wind in the forecast but first-day skiers and skifield staff alike are crossing their fingers for a perfect day.

The mountain will open with over a metre of snow, the best pre-season since 2011.

Skifield staff arrived in Methven last week, with 60 per cent having worked on the skifield before.

“We’ve taken on a few extra staff this year, since we plan on being busier this year,” Mt Hutt operations manager James Urquhart said. “They come from everywhere in the world.”

“We’ve got over a metre of snow across the mountain, deeper in some parts, so we’re looking forward to a cracking opening day,” he said.

“We haven’t opened the whole mountain on opening day for decades. I’ve skied here my whole life and I can’t remember opening for the season with the triple chair in operation.”

Ski area manager James McKenzie said Mt Hutt was expecting to open with all lifts operating on opening day Friday.

“We’re so far ahead of where we usually are at this stage of the season, we’re planning to open with all lifts operating including

He said there was so much snow on the ground grooming work had started early, and packing trails top to bottom. “Right now we’re starting to think about what Terrain Park features we can open with.”

He said staff couldn’t wait for opening.

Staff at the Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Authority spent up to $4.7 million on domestic travel and more than $600,000 on overseas trips, documents show.

The now-disestablished group, set up after the 2010 and 2011 Canterbury earthquakes, spent up to $1.9 million on domestic flights between Christchurch and Wellington alone from 2011 to last year.

The figures were released under the Official Information Act to stuff.co.nz.

The Department of the Prime Minister and Cabinet, which has taken over Cera’s duties, said Cera’s head office was based in Christchurch so staff regularly had to travel out of the city to attend important meetings.

“Due to the need to meet other key government agencies, attend Cabinet meetings and ministerial meetings as required, domestic travel between Christchurch and Wellington was undertaken on a regular basis,” a spokesman told stuff.co.nz.

“The use of tele-conferencing and video-conferencing was encouraged as much as possible.”

It is understood the travel costs included flights, accommodation and other expenses.

Other travel costs revealed in the OIA included a trip by two senior members of the Christchurch Central Development Unit to Washington for a US-NZ Pacific Partnership forum.

The total cost was almost $33,000.

Four staff were also sent to the UK and US, at a cost of almost $60,000.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COURT

Work sentence for threat to kill A man who threatened to kill a probation officer in the Ashburton District Court last year has received a community detention sentence.

Warwick Graeme King, 34, also appeared for sentencing for breaching a community work sentence.

King threatened to kill the officer in July last year, after a family member was sent to jail for dealing methamphetamine.

Judge David Saunders noted the qualities of leadership and patience noted by King’s employer in a letter handed up to the bench yesterday were clearly not reflected in his behaviour on the day in question.

“Threatening to kill is a charge which has a significant sanction imposed, particularly when it involved a probation officer doing his job,” Judge Saunders said.

“The court must send a signal that this sort of behaviour does have implications for liberty.”

Defence lawyer Roz Burnside said King was remorseful and regretted his behaviour, however Judge Saunders noted he had not made any effort to apologise to the officer concerned and had taken nine months to admit the charge.

“If you are man enough you

Judge Saunders said the offence would normally attract a period of disqualification, however he said the accident was the result of a minor error of judgement and Mawhinney had participated in a successful restorative justice conference.

He must make good outstanding reparations of $400 within 28 days for the discharge to stand.

should own up and apologise to the officer,” he said.

King was sentenced to three months’ community detention, six months supervision and must complete the outstanding community work hours.

Sharron Sandra Kanta, 28, of Rakaia admitted a charge of drink driving (EBA 1510mcg/l). She was convicted and remanded on bail for sentencing on July 4.

On May 1 police were notified of a southbound driver weaving across the road.

Kanta was pulled over shortly before midday, and her licence was suspended for 28 days.

Judge Saunders said it was note-

worthy that Kanta was before the courts for driving with an “alarmingly high” breath alcohol reading following a dreadful weekend on the country’s roads, during which 11 people died.

“I suspect over time the usual culprits of alcohol and speed will be identified as factors,” he said, before warning Kanta she is facing an electronically monitored sentence.

Dale Scott Mawhinney, 48, of Rolleston, was discharged without conviction on a charge of careless use of a motor vehicle causing injury. Mawhinney became distracted and drove into the rear of another vehicle on State Highway One near

Logan George Middlemass, 21, of Allenton, was sentenced to 50 hours’ community work on a charge of driving while disqualified.

Daniel MacPherson-Hampton, 21 of Tinwald, was convicted on charges of drink driving (EBA 472mcg/l) and driving while disqualified. He was sentenced to 50 hours’ community work and disqualified from driving for six months.

Pio Lomano, 35, of Allenton, must not drive a motor vehicle before he returns to court to plea to two charges of driving while disqualified – and he was advised to make good 28 hours of an outstanding community work sen-

tence before his next appearance on June 20.

Maka Tuakoi, 22, of Fairton, was fined $600 and ordered to pay court costs of $130 on a charge of breaching a community work sentence. The 45 outstanding hours were cancelled.

Stephen Anthony Olin, 25, of Allenton was sentenced to six months’ supervision on a charge of intentional damage, incurred after he broke a window in a Housing New Zealand-owned property in March.

Olin must make good $287 in outstanding reparations at $20 a week.

Luapo-Johri Etimani, 26, of Hampstead, admitted a charge of driving while disqualified and in doing so was disqualified for a further six months.

Etimani had also failed to pay $1766 outstanding on a reparation order after he intentionally smashed the window of a Burnett Street business and was ordered to start doing so.

A warrant was issued for the arrest of Tyler Daniel Croll-Davis.

■ ASHBURTON COLLEGE CLASS OF 1977-81

Full-on weekend for old classmates

By Megan Sutherland The Ashburton College class of ’77 hit the ground running with their reunion during Queen’s Birthday weekend, reminiscing on their great era.

The reunion which saw 50 of the classmates come back from all over, including one from Australia, kicked off with drinks at the Hotel Ashburton on Saturday night which tour organiser Steph O’Brien said was a better way for everyone to socialise.

Photos, old school magazines and memorabilia decorated the hotel and on Sunday the class met for lunch and were taken on a tour of the school, ending in the library where a historical area was set up where class members signed the mural from the jubilee last year.

Two of Ashburton College teachers, Liz Carrick and Steven Millichamp, who were in the 1977 class conducted the tour.

Ms O’Brien said it was quite funny to have two people in our own year back teaching.

The college hadn’t changed much according to Ms O’Brien apart from the old theatre T6 becoming a staff room and A6 the assembly hall being split into two rooms but she said she was disappointed there was no student common room.

“It’s a big thing when you’re in seventh form so it’s a bit of a shame.”

All in all the weekend was a success and Ms O’Brien said it was good to see a few old faces.

Trustpower Community Awards Heritage and Environment Winner: Ashburton Museum and Historical Society Winner of this category goes to the hardworking volunteers of the Ashburton Museum and Historical Society.

These volunteers have been very busy over the last 12 months!

With the completion of the Ashburton Art Gallery and Heritage Centre, the mammoth job of shifting the collection into the new museum needed meticulous planning as to what and when items were to be moved.

The collection held in trust by the society for the citizens of the district has grown so much that it was housed in six different locations. To save costs and make a manageable shift to the new museum, the society committee purchased a van for $1500 – put in a new battery and new tyres – and they were in business! The shift included 20,000 separate boxes, often heavy, with items large and small, fragile and precious.

Day after day, week after week, the work of the 30-40 volunteers

PHOTO TETSURO MITOMO 070616-TM-0121 continued. Only one day required the assistance of professional furniture movers to help with larger items – everything else was shifted in the trusty van, members’ cars or station wagons.

At times, 8-10 people formed “pass the parcel” lines down the stairs and to the van or cars to get the job done.

During the setup of the new museum, the society contributed in the vicinity of $435,000 to the

fit out and installation of the new irrigation display. This money came from fundraising, gifts and donations, reserves and grants.

Youth Spirit Winner: Lucy Clough Lucy has been a model student leader and mentor at Ashburton College for the past four years and is currently a member of the student executive and heads up the

cultural committee.

She volunteers as a student mentor at the school’s Special Needs Unit, is student duty monitor and a student leader amongst the reading mentors.

Lucy is a Peer Support Leader and an International Student Mentor, being a buddy for six international students over the last four years. Lucy was a Student Mentor for the Year 10 Spirit Trophy Voyage Team, involving approximately 100 voluntary hours fundraising and organising team building activities.

She has been a mentor and rehearsal pianist for the college’s junior choir for the past three years and a member of the college orchestra and a mentor for junior musicians. She is a member of the Phoenix Choir and now a senior leader of that choir.

She is also a member of the College’s Chamber Music Group and is learning a new instrument to assist the group and mentor junior musicians in year 9 and 10.

She is also a member of the college’s strings group and is a regular performer at College music events across the calendar.

As well as this high level of commitment to activities within Ashburton College, Lucy is also a

regular performer at Ashburton Musical Club and at community functions including performances at rest homes around Ashburton.

A large chunk of her time outside college is within the swimming community where she is the club captain for the Ashburton Swim team and a mentor for up-and-coming swimmers. Lucy also volunteers to assist the swim team sponsor which their charity fundraisers.

Health and Wellbeing Winner: Friends of the Ashburton Hospital and Tuarangi These volunteers go above and beyond to ensure that a patient’s stay at the hospital is a pleasurable event.

These volunteers are the friendly faces behind the tea trolleys, offering snacks and drinks and a chat too. Some people just prefer a chat, and so the volunteers will stick around to ask how they’re going and help with anything they can from opening their mail to fetching something from their locker.

At Tuarangi Home they help to feed patients that can’t feed themselves and they also round up patients for a sing along as well.

At special times of the year, such as Easter and Christmas, the volunteers make sure patients feel included with celebrations by dressing up as the Easter Bunny or Christmas (depending on which time of year it is of course) and delivering chocolates or diet lemonade to those who have diabetes.

It is clear that these volunteers truly care about every single person that they interact with and rest assured that your passion and dedication doesn’t go unnoticed.

Arts and Culture Winner: Ashburton Art Gallery Volunteers Ashburton Art Gallery volunteers have been part of an eight-year project setting up the gallery in the new Ashburton Art Gallery and Heritage Centre.

As the new building grew it was

abling all access to the day. Many local groups and individuals volunteer time and resources for the day, alongside local companies’ donations.

This day isn’t possible without all of the support from the community and every year they look at how they can make it even better.

This is an event helping families to share new experiences and create memories with each other and that is a hugely important role to play so thank you and we look forward to seeing another successful event next year!

Volunteers planned and executed fundraising events and sourced sponsorship to help purchase furniture, fittings and equipment.

As with any move comes the sorting, packing, lifting and installing. Many hours over the weeks before opening day were spent by volunteers helping staff to get the new building ready for the big reveal.

Without volunteer support the art gallery would struggle to

thrive and progress. The effort over the past eight years to complete the process of relocating, in conjunction with the normal day to day commitments of the volunteers has been a major undertaking of extra time, effort and financial support from the committee. Committee members not only gave their time, but they also gifted a total of $50,000 to the gallery to purchase moveable walls, the reception desk and display area, and equipment for the retail space. Also gifted was a coffee station unit and coffee making machine for the staff office space.

Sports and Leisure Winner: Ashburton Hakatere River Trail Committee This committee is comprised of representatives from a number of different community groups in Ashburton. Each community group is responsible for the maintenance of a section of the track that involves removing fallen

trees, keeping vegetation under control, planting and river protection work.

The total track traverses the northern side of the Ashburton River from Melrose Road west of SH1 to the Hakatere settlement at the river mouth; and on the Southern side of the river from SH1 to Lake Hood.

The committee meet bi monthly to report on trail conditions, pending events and plan for future maintenance including organising regular weekly or special working bees. The co-operation between the various groups is excellent as they share ideas and resources and represent different areas of the community and users of the tracks.

The committee has organised open days in order to promote the track, and they have worked hard to change any negative associations with the track, instead encouraging its use and through many hours of voluntary “slog” the trail is now an attractive and popular feature of Ashburton’s leisure activities.

Top award for Community House From P1 “This project is a symbol of a community moving forward. Part of the refurbishment includes a memorial to the two women that lost their lives in the double shooting in September 2014, but significant changes to the building have been made to ensure a comfortable and inviting environment was created,” Miss Beaton said.

Youth continued to be celebrated last night with the Trustpower Youth Community Spirit Award awarded to Lucy Clough from Ashburton College. Judges recognised her as a valuable member of the Ashburton community and for her volunteer work within her school and wider community.

Something wonderful risen from the ashes Michelle Nelson

T

he team behind Community House Mid Canterbury was a well-deserving winner of last night’s Trustpower Ashburton District Community Awards’ supreme prize.

Transforming the site of what was undoubtedly one of the worst tragedies in the district’s history into a building to meet the needs of the community was no mean feat.

Work and Income employees Peg Noble and Leigh Cleveland were gunned down in cold blood by masked executioner John Tully in September, 2014, leaving behind bereaved families, friends and colleagues and a gaping hole in the heart of the community.

It was immediately apparent Work and Income staff could no longer work in the Cass Street offices and the building stood empty for months.

Meanwhile, the Community House board was on the hunt for suitable premises. Tenants had been forced to find temporary accommodation in the aftermath of the Canterbury earthquakes, fracturing the service which had formerly recorded 26,000 client visits annually.

When the former Winz office was identified as a potential site for the new Community House, an army of volunteers swung into action.

The volunteer trust board raised $1.6 million, with the assistance of grants and donations, to purchase and refurbish the 800-square-metre multi-agency facility which officially opened in April this year bearing little resemblance to the original office block.

A memorial for Peg and Leigh sits outside the former clients’ entry off Cass Street and a new entrance has been created on the northern side of the building.

Seventeen agencies now use the building, providing a onestop shop in the heart of Ashburton, forecast to receive 40,000 client visits annually.

It took vision and determination, but thanks to the trust board and everyone associated with the project, something wonderful has risen from the ashes of tragedy – a building built by the community to serve the community into the future.

There could be no more fitting tribute to Peg and Leigh.

Labour and Greens aiming for crystal clear clarity L

abour and the Greens are to “align” under the memorandum of understanding banner.

MOU is not really a catchy title with which to win over the hearts and minds of the punters but, nevertheless, the aim is, according to co-Green leader, Metiria Turai, that it would provide “crystal clear clarity” about an alternative government, she says, “that was lacking at the last two elections”.

The MOU is not, however, to be thought of as a coalition, nor is it a “monogamous” relationship, thus in keeping with the free and easy way in which agreements these days are often formulated.

No, anyone can join providing they meet the standards established by MOU. How stringent these are has not yet been divulged by the Labour/Greens hierarchy.

That they would have welcomed warmly “Balance of Power” Peters into the fold was soon obvious, but that gentleman’s angry rejection of the whole venture and his strong disinclination to be contaminated by it seems to have brought such a dream to an abrupt halt. Winston will align with no-one.

NZ First stands or falls by its fierce independence.

So Mr Little and co-Green leaders Ms Turai and James Shaw, are pinning their 2017 electoral hopes on this “crystal clear clarity” to bring them the parliamentary majority they so desperately need to remove Mr “Limpet” John Key. But will it?

Was a “lack of clarity” all that

EYE ON POLITICS

prevented Labour from winning office in the 2011 and 2014 elections with the Greens cheering them on from the sidelines hoping to find one or two positions of influence in the administration of whichever Labour MP happened to be the leader at the time. It seems to me to have been rather more than that, the complete lack of an even mildly charismatic leader being the chief stumbling block.

And that is still the problem; earnest and well-intentioned as he undoubtedly is, Andrew Little lacks popular appeal on or off screen. His less than 9 per cent support as preferred PM in the latest poll seems to underline this. Will the addition of Turai and Shaw at his elbow make him anymore electable? It is hard to see why it should.

In fact, diehard Labour people may be appalled by the prospect of mixing with trendy, sandalwearing Greenies, as they may still think of them.

The whole manoeuvre has about it a “thinly veiled” element of desperation.

If either one of Messrs Twyford or Davis were at the Labour helm there might be a realistic chance of upending Key, but I very much

doubt whether a troika of Little, Turai and Shaw will do the trick.

In my opinion, in their ongoing and, so far, fruitless search for even a scrap of power, the Greens would be better advised to swallow a scruple or two then follow the trail blazed for them by the Maori Party (MP) and join the political mainstream.

The old adage, “if you can’t beat ‘em join them” very much applies here.

Mrs Turia quickly appreciated, after her precipitate exit from the Labour Party in 2004, that her only way of winning friends and influencing people was by offering National “coalition rights” and enjoying, in practical terms, the benefits of so doing.

Only recently was the present leader of the MP, Te Ururoa Flavell, pointing out how profitable in every way its “union” with National has been over the past 10 years.

A very small party has wielded power way above its station; how much further might the Greens get should they follow suit?

Despite possible appearances to the contrary, our current, supremely pragmatic PM, would, in my estimation have little difficulty “adjusting” to changed circumstances and welcoming aboard the valiant list MPs of a newly enfranchised Green Party ... and their votes.

Will June 1, 2016, turn out to be the turning point? As the result of the Labour, Greens decision, will the skids soon be under Mr Key and his cohorts, and their years in office finally ended in September, 2017? The TAB might be the place

SAY

to go to find out.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the world, the Brexit debate – namely, should Britain stay in the EU or leave it once and for all – is reaching “fever pitch”.

The referendum on the subject is only three weeks away.

Boris Johnson, the recently retired, controversial Mayor of London, is leading the call to go.

PM Cameron feels the nation should stay in. His “stay” vote, however, is so hedged about with special conditions for the UK being agreed, it is hard to see why the other 27 members would be interested.

Any suggestion that Britain being firmly in the EU and showing real determination to remain in it and not continue to change with the wind, would bring benefits to New Zealand might also be wishful thinking.

Why would the majority of members be persuaded to look favourably on Commonwealth partners of Britain when Britain itself is being so endlessly demanding.

The EU question in Britain has now split the politicians and their parties for the previous 40 years and this referendum is unlikely to be the last. No-one should rely on a perceived “new dawn” on the European issue. There have been too many. With immigration now assuming massive proportions, the goal posts are on the move once more.

LATE NEWS The Greens seemingly having a bob each way and are not “ruling out” a deal with National. Back to the TAB.

■ UNITED STATES

‘Glass ceiling’ shattered Striding into history, Hillary Clinton will become the first woman to top the presidential ticket of a major US political party, capturing commitments from the number of delegates needed to become the Democrats’ presumptive nominee.

The victory arrived nearly eight years to the day after she conceded her first White House campaign to Barack Obama.

Back then, she famously noted her inability to “shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling”.

Campaigning this time as the loyal successor to the nation’s first black president, Clinton held off a surprisingly strong challenge from Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders.

He mobilised millions with a fervently liberal message and his insurgent candidacy revealed a deep level of national frustration with politics-asusual, even among Democrats who have controlled the White House since 2009.

Clinton, the former secretary of state, New York senator and first lady, reached the 2383 delegates needed to become the

Hillary Clinton: Confirmed as the Democrats’ nominee. presumptive Democratic nominee yesterday with a decisive weekend victory in Puerto Rico and a burst of last-minute support from superdelegates.

Those are party officials and officeholders, many of them eager to wrap up the primary

amid preference polls showing her in a tightening race with presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump.

Clinton has 1812 pledged delegates won in primaries and caucuses.

She also has the support of

571 superdelegates, according to an Associated Press count.

The AP surveyed all 714 superdelegates repeatedly in the past seven months, and only 95 remain publicly uncommitted.

While superdelegates will not formally cast their votes for Clinton until the party’s July convention in Philadelphia, all those counted in her tally have unequivocally told the AP they will do so.

“We really need to bring a close to this primary process and get on to defeating Donald Trump,” said Nancy Worley, a superdelegate who chairs Alabama’s Democratic Party and provided one of the last endorsements to put Clinton over the top.

Clinton outpaced Sanders in winning new superdelegate endorsements even after his string of primary and caucus wins in May. Following the results in Puerto Rico, it is no longer possible for Sanders to reach the 2383 needed to win the nomination.

Residents of storm-struck Sydney remain on edge, bracing to be hit by another monster high tide as they watch their homes slowly crumble into the sea.

After bearing the brunt of the weekend’s fatal storm, the coastal suburb of Collaroy, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, was flogged by another king tide on Tuesday night.

University of NSW coastal researcher Mitchell Harley was on the beach at Collaroy last night and said six homes were “cracking up right now” in “grave conditions”.

More residents were forced to flee their homes with a further 12 buildings and apartments evacuated overnight before the tide hit between 9pm and midnight.

State Emergency Service workers spent hours sandbagging houses at risk of being pummelled by the sevenmetre swell.

Collaroy beach, which only last week was recognised for its generous stretch of sand, has been worn away to a churning tide lapping against cliffs with homes on the brink of collapse threatening to fall in.

As of yesterday, the beach had been eroded by more than 40 metres, with yesterday’s tide believed to have destroyed another five metres worth of beach.

Monster waves have been striking the beach since Sunday when the first load of residents were forced from their homes.

The deadly storm has caused at least three deaths.

Dream coming true Kiwi starlet Brooke Williams hopes her dream of cracking Hollywood is a step closer after scoring a role on the American TV drama, 12 Monkeys. Back in New Zealand as she prepares to return to the States for more auditions, she said her dream was not just restricted into starring in front of the camera, revealing she also had a hunger to take charge in the director’s chair. “I’m so into diversifying, I’d like to do everything,” she said. “I’m more of an artist than just an actress.” Williams has previously starred in Kiwi productions Shortland Street and Almighty Johnsons, and cult American show Spartacus.

Taylor gets it all wrong Taylor Swift was reportedly talking about marrying Calvin Harris just weeks before they split. Calvin, 32, recently called time on his 15-month romance with the 26-year-old singer and friends of Taylor say it came as a huge shock as she thought an engagement was on the cards. A source told Entertainment Tonight: “A few weeks ago she was talking about marrying him.”

It was previously claimed that Calvin – who recently had to cancel a number of shows after being involved in a car accident - had been “losing interest” in the Bad Blood hitmaker for some time before they split.

Everyone hates it when their friends post a not-so-nice photo of them on the internet - but singer Axl Rose has taken that hate to a new level. The Guns N’ Roses rocker, who is on tour with AC/ DC while filling in for the band’s front man Brian Johnson, has had it with people poking fun at him by making memes about his weight gain. The singer is now demanding that Google remove all of the unflattering pics of him with a cease and desist notice. According to TorrentFreak Web Sheriff sent a notice on Rose’s behalf stating: “Copyright image of Axl Rose. Please be advised that no permission has been granted to publish the copyright image so we cannot direct you to an authorised example of it.”

Google has yet to respond to Rose’s request.

In brief

■ MALWARE THREATS

NZ dodges cyber bullet and the Microsoft Security Intelligence Report.

“The rising sophistication and targeted cyberattacks are causing devastating disruption and losses of data and information across all computer and internet user segments.

In fact, it generally takes on average up to 200 days for organisations to find out that they have been victims of cyber attacks.”

While banks and financial services are most commonly targeted by cyber attacks, attacks are becoming more diverse with telecommunication companies, media companies, healthcare and insurance companies all suffering high profile attacks, Dhakad said.

■ FIGHTING DEBT

New Zealanders now owe almost half a trillion dollars – and a growing chunk of it belongs to ordinary households.

Are you one of those swamped by debt?

Here are five ways to get out of debt with Raewyn Fox, head of NZ’s Federation of Family Budgeting Services.

1. Act now If you are in a lot of debt and it’s causing you problems or worries do something about it today – don’t wait for it to get worse.

Write it all down – your income, outgoings and commitments and don’t forget the stuff you only pay for once a year.

Add it all up and see if there is a surplus or a deficit.

Fox says it will often show people are paying more out than they are earning. “You’ve got to figure out your situation before you can get out of it.

“Sometimes when you write stuff down the problem jumps out and hits you in the face.”

2. Prioritise spending Look at your spending and figure out what is a priority – what are your needs versus what are your wants.

Negotiate with your partner on what you can do to haul your spending back into line.

If you are in debt there are two ways to get out – increase your income or decrease your outgoings.

3. Maximise your income Check your contract entitlements – are you being paid what you should be?

If you have had a change in circumstances – such as a job loss – you may be entitled to help from the government such as working for families or an accommodation supplement.

If it’s too hard to work out by yourself get help.

If you have lost your job, check out your credit contracts – there may be a hardship clause in there which could allow you to put payments on hold for a couple of months or reduce your payments to ease the pressure.

4. Develop a plan

If you are struggling to make payments talk to your creditors about what you could pay, but be realistic and honest with yourself about what you can afford.

“If you offer something and then can’t keep it up it makes things worse.

“Once you have made an offer you have got to keep it up.”

Fox says those who fail to keep up are unlikely to be able to renegotiate again in the future.

5. Track your progress Keep an eye on your progress and set a goal of paying off a certain debt within a timeframe. Reward yourself when you get there.

Fox said the key was to have lots of little goals and not be too restrictive, otherwise it was likely people would just give up.

■ HIGH COURT

Weldon ‘ruled with an iron fist’ Mark Weldon couldn’t take criticism and ruled NZX with an iron fist while deliberately avoiding requests from Clear’s former owners for financial support, Wellington’s High Court has heard.

NZX is suing Dominic Pym, Grant Thomas, and their companies Ralec Commodities and Ralec Interactive for providing “wildly inaccurate” forecasts prior to

NZX buying the Australian grain trading platform in 2009. Ralec’s counterclaim says NZX and former chief Mark Weldon underfunded the business, meaning it couldn’t meet earn-out targets.

Counsel Brian Latimour asked Grant Thomas, Ralec’s first witness, about his tertiary qualifications and former employment, including previous jobs he had been fired

from. Thomas said he had been sacked as a coach, newspaper columnist and radio commentator because he was “too outspoken.”

Thomas was critical of Weldon, saying he was “very defensive” and it appeared to him that Weldon ruled with an iron fist.

The trial has now entered its sixth week, and could last 11 weeks in total.

Canterbury dairy company Synlait Milk said its forecast milk price for the 2016/2017 of $4.50 kg of milksolids would carry a higher-thanusual advance rate for milk suppliers.

Chairman Graeme Milne said the prospect of another tough season would be slightly offset for Synlait suppliers as they would start the season in a stronger cash flow position than they were expecting. The milk price compares with Fonterra’s farmgate milk price forecast for 2016/7 of $4.25kg.

New Zealand is one of the least affected countries in Asia Pacific when it comes to cyber attacks, but harmful software is circulating around the globe in massive numbers.

Microsoft revealed the top markets in Asia Pacific under malware threats yesterday at its second Cyber Trust Experience held in Singapore.

Regional Director of the Digital Crimes Unit in Asia Pacific, Keshav Dhakad, said the places most affected by cyber threats were developing markets, with Pakistan, Indonesia, Bangladesh and Nepal topping the table of the Malware Infection Index for 2016.

New Zealand was ranked 18th out of 19 Asia Pacific markets, with Australia and Korea joint at number 16 and Japan the least affected market.

“What we’re seeing at Microsoft is a tremendous sophistication in the way cybercrime has evolved,” Dhakad said. “[Malware] is highly automated, very organised and highly concealed.

“They have really mastered camouflage material. When they steal data they can permanently delete the data.”

After taking control of some malware-spreading botnets located in Europe, Microsoft was able to monitor all the devices the botnets spread to around the world.

“Another thing we love about these dishes is that we usually have most of the ingredients already in our cupboard.”

The chilli chocolate mousse with blueberries is a special treat that can be made the day before and kept in the fridge.

Local playwright and actress Georgie Sivier (left) entertained a large crowd at the Ashburton Art Gallery on Friday night.

Her play, This is the Story of Me, What is Me? And Where to from Here?, was originally performed at the Nelson Fringe Festival where she was awarded the Fringe Director’s Special Commendation Award.

It celebrates the trials and tribulations of growing up as a ‘whinging Pom’ in small town New Zealand, and has been described as being a heartfelt and moving coming-of-age piece.

Visitors to the Selwyn Art Gallery will be treated to two special ceramics and printmaking exhibitions this month.

Jane McCulla’s ceramics exhibition, Flow, and Rangi Ruru Girls’ School’s printmaking show, Thinking in Print, will be on display at the gallery throughout June.

McCulla’s fascination with clay, and its ecological and archaeological connotations, is evident in the power of her sculptural work.

Influenced by the land and her own experience of remote landscapes and seascapes, McCulla’s ceramic forms reflect her sensitive exploration of mankind’s mark on the landscape and his vulnerability to the whim of nature.

McCulla, originally from Northern Ireland, relocated to New Zealand in 2009 and now lives in Lyttelton where she has a home-based studio.

Her work has received notable accolades including a merit award in 2013 at the prestigious Portage Ceramic Awards based in Auckland.

She has exhibited in London, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.

Thinking in Print shows recent works

by current Rangi Ruru Girls’ School Art students and staff.

Some of these works are part of NCEA Visual Arts portfolios where the assessment is based on developing and extending ideas.

The focus in the Rangi Ruru Art Department is on developing independ-

ent thinking.

In the junior curriculum there is an emphasis on developing a strong foundation in drawing from observation.

The two exhibitions will be held at the Selwyn Art Gallery from June 3 to 30.

■ INDOOR BOWLS

Ken in top form on the mats Ashburton indoor bowler Ken Mackenzie was the star of the South Island championships at the weekend.

Mackenzie was named player of the tournament after winning the triples, teaming up with wife Rowena to come second in the pairs and getting to the last eight in the fours.

The tournament was in Balclutha, where players battled not only each other but extremely cold temperatures.

Mackenzie teamed up with Ashburton’s Michael Lawson and Stephen Preddy from South Otago to win the triples ahead of 64 other teams vying for the glory.

Fifty-five teams entered the fours, with 19 qualifiers including the winning triples combinations plus Rowena Mackenzie and another Rakaia team with Rosemary Bennett, Chris Talbot, James Stewart and Margaret Stewart.

Both teams made it to the last eight before being knocked out.

Team Mackenzie was one of 114 pairs entered in the pairs championships.

The Mackenzies and Lawson and Preddy both made it to the last eight where they played each other.

The Mackenzies then took care of Suzanne Mackie and Brian Hotton (Invercargill) 11-7 before heading into the final against Maurice Berkeley and Jenny Eden (Woolston).

It was a close affair, the Ashburton reps missing out 9-8.

Ashburton indoor bowls are back in action later in the week, when they head to Tauranga for the national champs.

Sam Warburton has survived training and is on the cusp of being cleared to captain Wales at the start of their three test series with the All Blacks. After Warburton’s latest shoulder mishap though the tourists are wary about making any definitive statement until the flanker passes a final inspection. That will be completed before tomorrow when the side to play at Eden Park is revealed.

“His shoulder is improving quite dramatically and I think he will be there or thereabouts,” assistant coach Shaun Edwards said. - NZME

The All Blacks head into Saturday’s test against Wales with one of sport’s most impressive unbeaten streaks on the line. They have gone 35 games undefeated at Eden Park since the 23-20 loss to France on July 3 1994. The side were held to 18-18 by South Africa the same year and have since won 34 straight.

There have been close shaves, like the 8-7 win over France in the 2011 World Cup final, but many have come and failed. The All Blacks have never lost at Eden Park during new All Black Damian McKenzie’s life time.

Netball NZ’s departing chief executive Hilary Poole says her only regret in the role is that the decision to split away from the ANZ Championship did not come sooner. Poole announced she will step down from the role she has held since 2013 at the end of the month. Her departure comes at a time when the sport is in a period of major transition, with the ANZ Championship to be disestablished at the end of this season. - NZME

■ AVONDALE

High hopes for Nova Incanto Dean Wiles is confident of a bold showing from Nova Incanto at Avondale today.

The Pukekohe Park trainer has been forced to be patient with the youngster, who will make the second appearance of his career in the first of two NZB Insurance Pearl Series Races on today’s card.

“I expect him to go well – he’s a pretty smart horse,” Wiles said.

“He pulled up chronically shin sore after his first race so I spelled him and he came back and won a trial, but I wasn’t that impressed

M2

with him and he went shin sore again so he went back out.

“He won his last trial by 10 lengths and I’ve finally got him right.”

Nova Incanto is raced by the Singapore-based Nova Racing Stable, with whom Wiles has enjoyed a successful association.

“A couple of other horses I had for them, Nova Strike and Nova Warrior, both won their last starts up there,” he said.

Wiles, who has 70 horses on his books, has also recently sent two-

time juvenile winner Nova Swiss to Singapore.

“I always knew his two-yearold season would be his last here – he’s going to have a good future there,” he said.

Meanwhile, Wiles is pressing ahead with his impressive Te Awamutu winner Magic Warrior, who was tripped up by the rain-affected going when unplaced in the Listed Great Northern Foal Stakes.

“He may be sold, but if not he’ll go to Ruakaka next – he needs a decent track,” he said.

Filly gets a spell Stakes winner Volpe Veloce has gone to the spelling paddock.

Trainer Graham Richardson said the unbeaten filly was likely to return to racing in the Gr.3 Gold Trail Stakes in the spring before a crack at the Gr.1 New Zealand 1000 Guineas.

- NZME

New date for Mackinnon

Jockey Samantha Collett

The Gr.1 Mackinnon Stakes has been moved to the closing day of the spring carnival at Flemington.

Victoria Racing Club chief executive Simon Love said the 2000 metres race had lost its appeal as a key Melbourne Cup lead-up, prompting the switch and a prize money boost to $A2 million.

SCHOOL ZONE DRIVING The Ashburton District Council is reminding drivers to slow down around schools and school buses as winter driving conditions set in.

The speed limit is 20km/h when passing school buses that are stopped to drop off or pick up children and the rule applies whichever direction you’re travelling in.

Dog owners using the Ashburton Dog Park will have constant access to water for their thirsty pets following the recent installation of a new self-filling water trough.

Environmental Services Group Manager Jane Donaldson says the new addition was made in response to community concerns about the park’s lack of water.

WILDING PINE

“This project has been possible thanks largely to neighbouring company Tricroft Properties who have allowed the Dog Park water to be sourced from their own water supply. We are very grateful for their generosity.”

Water access at the Ashburton Dog Park was one of the main issues commented on during a review of Ashburton District Council’s Dog Control Policy and Bylaw.

Council Meetings To be held in the Council Chamber, 2 Baring Square East, Ashburton.

New Zealand Transport Agency rules state that school speed zones have a 40km/h limit on school days at school drop off and pick up times at both ends of the school day. With winter approaching, icy and wet road conditions will increase the stopping distances and all drivers need to be mindful of this, according to Mr McKay.

8/6 ALL PUZZLES © THE PUZZLE COMPANY

YOUR STARS ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): You’ll have a few choices about who to deal with in business. Any way you go, it will work out. Trust first, and whomever you deal with will prove trustworthy next time.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): You enjoy people who have their own opinions, and the day will be peppered with banter, interesting arguments and fine points that differ from your own. This intellectual challenge that keeps you on your game.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): You’ve built something that’s not just for you. It’s also for your group, loved ones, friends and the next generation. They all take a bit of ownership. This will live beyond any of you.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): The seemingly good advice you get in the morning will contradict other seemingly good advice of the afternoon. Now what?

Neither is perfect for you. Keep listening.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Allow people to help you, even when you don’t need it. What is the point of trying to be strong all of the time when that only serves to alienate others and rob them of the chance to know their own generosity?

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): There’s a time to spoil your loved ones silly, and that time is not now, nor is it most days. Make it special, or they’ll go rotten. As Euripides said, “When love is in excess, it brings a man no honour, nor worthiness.”

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): Money talks in a language that, while not exactly universal, is certainly widely understood. It won’t solve today’s problems completely, but it will solve them temporarily just fine.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): The answers are not blowing in the wind, written on the wall, out there or within you. Don’t let it discourage you asking, though, it connects you with the other curious minds.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): It’s not like you to be suspicious of someone who wants to get to know you better. Therefore, if you’re having that suspicion, take note. It’s significant.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Are you feeling someone’s pain more than your own? It’s either a sign that you’re emotionally intertwined with a person who needs your support or that you’re too immersed in business that’s not your own. Which is it?

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Different things make you happy at different times of life. For some there will be enjoyment from good food, good drinks and a bad girl or boy to share them with.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): You can’t hold on to a lot of items while you climb a ladder. You have to set things down on the way up, and hopefully they will be there when you need them on the way back down.

Sport Serena tops Sharapova Serena Williams may have been second best at the French Open but the American has moved ahead of fellow tennis player Maria Sharapova to top the women’s earnings list in sports, according to Forbes Magazine.

Williams ended the Russian’s 11-year reign as the world No.1 by hauling in $US28.9 million ($NZ39.22m) in combined prizemoney and off-field earnings during the past 12 months.

American mixed martial arts standout Ronda Rousey shot up to third on the list at $14 million, just ahead of compatriot and NASCAR driver Danica Patrick, who earned $US13.9m.

Top tips from NZ’s finest

Mid Canterbury Boxing Academy’s budding pugilists had the chance to refine their skills under the watchful eyes of national and Golden Gloves champions during a sparring day on Monday.

National welterweight champion Cornelius Grobler was

joined by fellow national champions Joel Hill from Timaru and Waikuku’s Hosea Watson, along with South Island Golden Gloves winner Christian Tikao.

The boys were given tips on how to improve their technique by a foursome boasting plenty of ring nous.

“We’ve got three rings set up and there’s a national cham-

pion in each one of the rings,” said Mid Canterbury Boxing Academy manager Lisa Anderson.

“So every member of the academy gets to spar with one of those.”

Anderson said families were also invited to watch the sessions to see how far the boys had progressed since the club’s

opening six weeks ago.

“We’re going to do a barbecue for them after and we asked their families to come too,” she said.

“We wanted the families to come. Often they’re busy with work and things, so now after just six weeks they can see what the boys have learnt and how far they’ve come along.”

Sharks go from hunters to the hunted For so long the hunters, the Cronulla Sharks have become the hunted, skipper Paul Gallen acknowledges, as the club sits atop the premiership ladder halfway through the season.

The Sharks dramatic post-siren

win over Canterbury on Monday reaffirmed their status as premiership contenders, and the club might never have a better chance to end rugby league’s longest-running premiership drought.

After 13 rounds, the Sharks

Welsh skipper ‘likely to play’ P15

better Melbourne on percentages and are four points clear of premiers North Queensland.

The 2016 premiership was expected to be largely a two-horse race between the Cowboys and the Broncos, but the Sharks’

form has changed that.

The Sharks have been catapulted to the top courtesy of nine successive wins. That run includes victories over Melbourne and Brisbane – proof the Sharks are the real deal in 2016. - AAP

Billy Slater will wait until the end of next year’s pre-season before making a call on his future. The Melbourne No.1 remains hopeful of making a return to the NRL after his second shoulder reconstruction in as many years, but he says he’s unlikely to be certain until well into 2017. “I’ll probably go through the whole pre-season and still not make a decision,” he said yesterday. “I think once it’s time to play next year I will know in my mind what I want to do to push forward.”

Mystics coach steps down Northern Mystics are on the look-out for a new coach next season after Debbie Fuller announced she is stepping down at the end of the season.

Fuller has been involved with the Mystics since 2009 – first as assistant coach, before stepping into the head coach role in 2011 – and saw that the time was right for someone else to step into the head coach role. Next year will see big changes for the team, as they compete in a new sixteam domestic competition, which will be rounded out by an additional side in the Northern Zone’s boundary.
