THE INDEPENDENT VOICE OF MID CANTERBURY

Prison term for East St bashing An Ashburton father who sustained severe brain injuries during an unprovoked late night attack, said his way of life before the event was over.

And the young man responsible has been imprisoned for three years and five months.

Vincent Kuru-Nathan was aged 19 when he assaulted Jeff Hill in the early hours of March 23, leaving him unconscious on East Street.

Yesterday Kuru-Nathan, now 20, appeared before Judge Joanna Maze in the Ashburton District Court for sentencing on one count of assault with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, and two of assault.

Defence counsel Douglas Brown told the court his client had been drinking heavily after a long period of abstinence, enforced by a home detention sentence handed down for earlier offending.

Kuru-Nathan and some acquaintances accosted Mr Hill as he walked up the street with his friend Shaun Bovey after an evening out.

He punched Mr Hill, who

stumbled. Mr Bovey was hit in the head while attempting to intervene, causing him to fall to the ground. Kuru-Nathan then rounded on Mr Hill again, landing a second blow which caused him to “drop like a stone”.

Mr Hill sustained two skull fractures and a brain bleed. He suffers from amnesia, is easily fatigued and faces a lengthy rehabilitation.

His businesses has folded, and he is unable to support his family. “My way of life before March 24 has come to an end,” Mr Hill’s victim impact statement read.

Judge Maze pointed to KuruNathan’s 35 previous convictions – accrued before he was 20, and a significant history in the youth court, saying it was not possible to make allowances for his age.

“You are entrenched in the criminal justice system,” she said, before handing down the sentence and delivering a threestrikes warning, under which Kuru-Nathan will not be eligible for parole for any further violent offending.

Benaud battles skin cancer Former Australian cricket captain Richie Benaud has revealed he is battling skin cancer and is undergoing radiation therapy.

The highly regarded commentator made his illness public yesterday at the Nine Network’s launch for its summer cricket coverage. Benaud, 84, (left) is receiving treatment for skin cancers on his forehead and the top of his head. “I’m coping with it very well - the doctors are pleased,” Benaud said at the SCG. “I’m going along slowly. The cancers need to be treated.” Benaud urged people to take precautions to protect themselves in the sun. “I recommend to everyone they wear protection on their heads.

Eighty-four-year olds don’t seem to mend as well as they used to,” said Benaud. “When I was a kid, we never ever wore a cap. I wish I had. You live and learn as you go along.” Benaud attended the Nine launch with the broadcast team including Bill Lawry, Ian Chappell, Mark Nicholas, Brett Lee and Shane Warne.

Drivers scramble for cash Drivers scrambled to grab money flying around a Maryland highway after an armoured truck’s door burst open. Maryland State Police say a lock on the truck seems to have malfunctioned, causing the door to open. A bag of cash fell onto the road and the bills flew in the air. Police say a number of drivers stopped on the interstate and grabbed what cash they could before a fire department vehicle arrived and turned on its emergency lights. Responding troopers were able to help the truck’s driver recover about $200. It’s not known how much cash was lost.

A 25-year-old Cobden man will appear in the Dunedin District Court this week for disorderly behaviour after streaking the length of the field during the Kiwis versus England rugby league test, on Saturday night. The redheaded, red-faced, red-cheeked streaker was set upon by security guards soon after running to score an imaginary try at Forsyth Barr Stadium, in Dunedin.

The man jumped the fence during the altercation between New Zealand scrumhalf Kieran Foran and English fullback Sam Tomkins, with 12 minutes remaining in the match. Dunedin police said apart from the exhibitionist, the crowd was well behaved.

Both The Foo and The Hoff owned their respective ensembles but The Hoff ’s effort was tongue in cheek while Redfoo managed to make the Scottish garb look rock and roll. Hasselhoff paired his grey and mauve kilt with a black blazer, white shirt, black bow tie and knee-high white socks with black lace-up shoes. Redfoo’s version was black with white plaid styled with a red check shirt, leather vest, black boots and purple and white striped socks.

As for underpants, we can’t say.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COURT

Teen struck by another car?

A teenager killed on the outskirts of Rakaia in April may have already been struck by another vehicle, when Annalise Taylor ran over him, according to a pathologist’s report.

Taylor, 34, appeared in the Ashburton District Court yesterday.

She wept quietly in the dock, as Judge Joanna Maze disqualified her from driving for

six months on a drink driving charge. Police withdrew a second charge of careless use of a motor vehicle causing death, in relation to the death of 18-yearold Danny Mathew Hendriks on April 5.

The court was told Taylor had been drinking with friends at Rakaia on the night in question.

She left the hotel and flicked her lights on to full beam as she left

the township. At that point she noticed the dark shape lying on the road in front of her, but it was too late to stop.

The ensuing impact caused the airbags to deploy. Taylor stopped and on realising she had hit a person, immediately called the police.

A subsequent blood test revealed Taylor was slightly over the legal limit to drive, with

a blood alcohol reading of 96 milligrams per 100 millilitres of blood (equating to 454 micrograms of alcohol per litre of breath).

Taylor’s lawyer, Alistair Davis, said a pathologist could not discount a chance Mr Hendriks had already been hit by another vehicle, prior to Taylor running over his body.

Judge Maze noted Taylor had

no previous convictions, and was deeply distressed by the ordeal.

During yesterday’s hearing arrangements were made to make a reparation payment of $1000 to Mr Hendriks’ family.

“The reparation payment is to help provide a way to address the burden you are carrying,” Judge Maze said.

Students kick off NCEA exams with science

By Daisy HuDson

daisy.h@theguardian.co.nz

After months of hard work, practice runs and nervous anticipation, hundreds of students across Mid Canterbury finally sat their first NCEA exams yesterday.

The exam period officially kicked off on Friday with scholarship drama, although no students from Mid Canterbury took part.

Students from Ashburton College and Mount Hutt College studying Level 1 science

had the dubious honour of participating in the first local exam of the year, followed by Japanese, geography, chemistry and history later in the day.

Students across Mid Canterbury have been studying hard for the exams, which can determine entry into classes the following year, as well as acceptance into university courses and halls of residence.

Ashburton College Year 12 student Daniel Harper-Grey said preparing for his Level 2 geography exam was all about

“nailing the stats”.

Mr Harper-Grey believed there was more pressure to prepare for Level 2 exams, as they were a big step up from Level 1 assessments.

“We’re taught in a more relaxed way, but you’ve got to be more self-sufficient,” he said.

Mr Harper-Grey said preparing an exam plan and studying each subject for 45 minutes per night was key.

He also believed doing well in the first exam was vital for confidence during the rest of

the exam period.

“It’ll be good to get the first one out of the way,” he said.

Fellow Year 12 student Emily-Jane Farr said the exam period had come up fast, but she was feeling “alright” about her prospects.

More than 143,000 students will sit NCEA and New Zealand Scholarship assessment over the exam period, which lasts until December 2.

Students can expect results to be released online from the middle of January.

Phillip Smith is likely to have had outside help in planning his escape to Chile while on temporary release, police say.

He may also have been planning his escape for years, authorities say.

Smith left by plane for Chile on a passport previously obtained in his birth name, on the afternoon of Thursday, November 6, the day he was temporarily released from Springhill Prison.

Corrections and Internal Affairs have been working with police on the inquiry.

The circumstances of Smith obtaining the passport under the name Traynor and making arrangements to leave, and who may have assisted, are the subject of an inquiry, police said.

The passport was valid, and therefore there was no reason to stop him at the border.

Smith had undertaken a number of release visits, understood to be 10, as part of his release plan. He had been due back at Springhill prison on Sunday but police were notified on Saturday that he had not turned up at his sponsor’s home, as arranged.

Police had, through Interpol, notified Chilean authorities and all avenues would be pursued to return Smith to New Zealand, police said.

At a press conference yesterday afternoon, police Assistant Commissioner Malcolm Burgess and Corrections’ Jeremy Lightfoot were asked what checks were in place to monitor prisoners.

Mr Lightfoot said Corrections’ system of checks and balances had not failed, despite the escape. “I think this is a hugely disappointing and distressing event for ... the victims and their families.”

Mr Lightfoot said an operational review was under way but it was too soon to say if any Corrections staff would resign over the escape.

In brief

Nervous wait for principals

determine the level of funding schools receive.

The ministry is estimating two thirds of New Zealand’s 2406 state and state-integrated schools will see decile increases or decreases, with one third remaining unchanged.

Ministry representatives were unable to confirm how many Mid Canterbury schools will be affected by the changes.

Mid Canterbury Principals’ Association president Chris Murphy said principals in the region were “generally happy with their lot” in regard to decile rankings, but were used

daisy.h@theguardian.co.nz

The next few days will be nervous ones for Mid Canterbury principals as they wait to find out if their schools will be affected by changing decile rankings.

The Ministry of Education will be informing schools across the country of their decile rankings over the next ten days, with all schools expected to know their fate by November 20.

Decile rankings reflect the socio-economic circumstance of the school’s community, and

to “having to roll with the punches”.

Mr Murphy was critical of the decile system, calling it a “blunt tool”, and he believed the ministry used a one size fits all policy.

“Even decile 10 schools will have pockets of poverty in their schools,” he said.

Decile ratings are usually reviewed every five years, based on census data.

However, the delay of the last census due to the Christchurch earthquakes means it has been seven years since decile ratings were last examined.

Netherby School principal Phil Wheeler said he would be disappointed if his school’s decile rose as it was important for funding, and he believed decile rankings did not determine the quality of a school.

“Just because it’s a higher decile rating, that doesn’t mean it’s a better education,” he said.

Mid Canterbury schools cover a wide range of deciles, from Netherby at decile three to decile ten schools such as Carew Peel Forest, Mt Somers Springburn, Our Lady of the Snows, and Ashburton Christian.

Firefighters are reminding Mid Cantabrians to install smoke alarms wherever people may be sleeping following a dramatic blaze in Ashburton at the weekend.

Ashburton man Daniel Maruera is lucky to be alive after fire engulfed the detached garage he was sleeping in at Netherby early on Sunday morning. He was rescued by his friend John Heke, who noticed smoke coming from the building just in time.

Ashburton Volunteer Fire Brigade members attended the chaotic scene, where they found people dousing the nearby house with hoses to make sure it did not catch fire.

Chief Alan Burgess said the garage did not have a smoke alarm installed, so the occupant was unaware of the fire. If there was potential for someone to be asleep in any part of a home, or separate structure such as a garage, it should be serviced by a smoke alarm, he said.

“At least it gives people an opportunity to get out of the place if something does go wrong,” Mr Burgess said.

“It doesn’t matter what you are using it for, it could be a caravan, the same thing applies.”

He wanted to remind Mid Cantabrians of the need to install and check on smoke alarms particularly as they may have guests staying in the coming Christmas and New Year holiday period.

Anyone who requires assistance or advice when it comes to installing smoke alarms can phone Murray Cairns at the New Zealand Fire Service in Ashburton on 307-8962.

False alarm The fire service attended a false alarm at the Ashburton District Council yesterday morning.

Four domestics Police attended four domestic incidents over the weekend. At one incident, in the early hours of Sunday morning, a 22-year-old male was arrested for assault.

Drunk driver A male driver was breathalysed at 1.50am on Sunday morning, where he recorded an excess breath alcohol level of 682 micrograms of alcohol per litre of breath.

Two car crashes Police attended two car crashes over the weekend. The first crash occurred at 11.30am on Saturday, when a car skidded into a power pole. Police said people were admitted to hospital with injuries, but were unable to give further details. The second crash occurred at 4.30pm on Saturday, when a car lost control on River road. Two people were admitted to hospital with minor injuries.

Trailer topples over Thousands of dollars worth of sheep and lambs were killed after a stock truck’s trailer toppled on a Mauriceville road north of Masterton yesterday morning.

Truck driver Mike Rzoska was not injured in the crash. He had driven about a kilometre before his almost 10-tonne trailer overturned on a bend about 10am yesterday.

The crash left 31 ewes and two of the spring lambs dead or dying and several others with less serious injuries. Mr Rzoska said a tyre on the trailer could have blown out or run flat, because deep gouges had been left in the tarseal for a distance of up to 200m before the 55km/h bend.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COURT

Jailed two years on drugs charges An Ashburton mother who supplemented her benefit by dealing class A drugs has received a two-year jail sentence, prompting a chorus of abuse from her supporters.

Angela Lee Kim Weir, 25, appeared before Judge Joanna Maze in the Ashburton District Court yesterday, for sentencing on four counts of selling methamphetamine, two of offering to supply methamphetamine and five of selling cannabis.

The offending occurred between March and July, while Weir was subject to sentence for early cannabis related offending, and came to light during a police sting code named Operation Webster.

Weir sold drugs to undercover police officers, and other charges were laid using incriminating evidence lifted from her cellphone.

Defence counsel James Rapley asked the court to consider a sentence of home detention, on the basis that Weir has three young children.

However, Judge Maze said that was a “well hummed tune” discounted by the fact that Weir had been willing to sell cannabis to complete strangers while the children were present.

While most of the drug deals involved small amounts, Weir had twice offered to procure a gram of methamphetamine, worth $1000 to $1200.

“You do not use methamphetamine yourself but procured it to supplement your income,” Judge Maze said.

“It was a well-oiled enterprise, you were prepared to sell to anyone.”

She said the personal circumstances of those who introduce drugs to the community has always been considered “low weight” when it came to sentencing options.

“It was commercial, premeditated and planned offending. This woman was

prepared to sell to anyone, and there were children in the house.”

At the conclusion of sentencing a vocal contingent of supporters swore and made threats as they left the courtroom.

• Meanwhile, two others arrested during Operation Webster also appeared in court yesterday.

Shaun Nathan Hurst, was convicted and returned to custody on remand, for sentencing in January.

Hurst, who admitted four charges of possessing and supplying cannabis, also sold the drugs to an undercover police officer who knocked on the door, and was further implicated by telco data.

When the police raided the property on July 23, they uncovered a number of “tinnies” (street-packaged cannabis) in a hole in a bedroom wall.

Hurst told the officers he sold the drugs for his mother, and made $5 on each sale.

• Tehira Burton, 23, was remanded in custody on a number of charges, including selling cannabis and offering to supply methamphetamine, assault and threatening to kill. His cellphone also gave up his intentions, with a number of messages using street names for the class A and C drugs.

When confronted by police Burton denied selling methamphetamine, saying he had sold ground glass to a person for $50.

His lawyer James Rapley asked for a remand on bail to enable Burton to attend a family group conference, however Judge Maze was not persuaded.

Burton also has a lengthy criminal history and was subject to sentence at the time of the recently laid charges.

He was convicted on all matters and will return to court for sentencing in January.

■ HYDROSLIDE SURVEY

Only three weeks left to return those survey forms If a having a hydroslide in the EA Networks Centre is important to you, you have just three weeks to tell the Ashburton District Council.

The council is currently surveying residents to find their thoughts on the hydroslide project, and is asking a range of questions about cost, how the facility should be paid for and whether a big ticket facility or something more modest is the right option for the district.

To date 829 survey forms have been completed, with the majority of respondents, 489, completing forms online. Another 75 have dropped forms off to council with 265 sending these in by post.

Residents have until December 1 to

return their completed survey to the council.

Spare printed copies of the information sheet and survey are available at the council reception area and the Ashburton Public Library or people can log on to www.ashburtondc.govt.nz to complete a form online.

The survey results will be included into the mix of information the council uses when deciding on a preferred hydroslide option to be incorporated in the Long Term Plan.

This will be available for consultation early in 2015 and residents will have an opportunity to make a detailed submission on the option put forward, giving the council their views and comments.

Cup ideal excuse to dress up

By Caitlin Porter

If there is ever a time to dress up and embrace high fashion it is for the races.

The Christchurch Casino NZ Trotting Cup is being held today and Mid Cantabrians are joining in on the fun.

Billed as one of the most glamorous and highly-anticipated events on Canterbury’s calendar it is no surprise Mid Canterbury retailers have noticed an increase in customers wanting to look their best.

Todd’s of Ashburton owners Christine and Tony Todd said there was a lot of interest in new outfits and accessories for cup day.

“Just as much interest as last year,” Mrs Todd said.

As for what is on trend for this year, Mrs Todd said bright colours were the way to go.

In terms of fascinators or hats it was fascinators that were preferred by many.

Accessories depended on the style and colour of dress, as

Grenade found on section

A live hand grenade found on an empty Hastings section on Sunday led police to the discovery of an improvised explosive device.

A man was clearing vegetation from a neighbouring property in Albert St on Sunday, when he found a live hand grenade wrapped in plastic material on an empty property behind a commercial building, police said.

The man then handed the grenade in to the Hastings Police Station late Sunday morning.

Police said the defence force bomb disposal squad was then called in and the station and surrounding buildings were evacuated until the grenade was examined and taken away from the scene.

Yesterday the bomb squad and the police specialist search group searched the section where the hand grenade was found, police said.

During their search an improvised explosive device (IED) was found, Detective Sergeant Brent Greville said.

He said it had no detonator.

He said there police were unsure of where the two items originated from or who had placed them on the vacant section.

“Wedges are incredibly good, but again that depends on the outfit.”

Methven residents Tenille Clemett and Olivia Denning ticked every box today with their bright dresses, wedged shoes and fascinators. The pair went up with a group of friends on the Brown Pub bus, which left from Methven this morning.

Hairdressers were also busy this morning, Capelli Hair Design had customers wanting blow-waves and up-dos so they could look their best.

Women are not the only ones who are looking flash, men have also been in to Todd’s so they could look dapper on race day.

Mr Todd said the look for today is smart-casual, more dress shirts and pants rather than three-piece suits.

“There are quite an array of shirts from more common to more fashionable prints.”

Today is Methven resident Olivia Denning’s first time at the races and she is looking forward to a day out with friends.

■ ST JAMES’ PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

Celebrating 130th anniversary It was a full house at St James’ Presbyterian Church, Tinwald, on Sunday when the parish celebrated its 130th anniversary.

Parishioners and former minister of the parish, Reverend David Coster, who is now based at Cashmere in Christchurch, led the commemorative service.

There was a lunch to follow and display of memorabilia. A highlight included the baptism of baby Shamika Mary Epilo, whose mother Nicola was baptised by Mr Coster on the same date some years ago.

The baby’s great grandmother Bev Reveley is a member of the parish.

The church originally served the whole area from the Ashburton to Rangitata rivers and from Lagmhor to the coast. It had its origins in Flemington, where its first place of worship was constructed in 1884. A new church building was constructed at the current Tinwald site in 1888, and this was replaced by the current church building in 1957.

Today, the parish is without a minister, but is looking for one, which it may share in co-operation with St Paul’s in east Ashburton. Ultimately the three parishes of St James’, St Paul’s and the larger St Andrew’s in Ashburton would amalgamate into one church, Mrs Royds said.

In brief Missing girl returns A 13-year-old girl who went missing from Starship Hospital yesterday afternoon has returned home, police say. Police said Aleisha Slack went missing from the hospital at 2.30pm yesterday, and there were serious concerns for her wellbeing. Shortly before 9pm police advised Aleisha had returned to her home address and there were no further concerns for her safety.

In brief Bus crash kills 14 Authorities say a bus carrying a group on a religious excursion has crashed in southern Spain, killing 14 people and injuring another 38.

A regional church authority in Murcia says one of two buses bringing back 55 members of a religious group from a day trip in Madrid to the town of Bullas ran off the road and tumbled down a 15-metre dirt embankment. The crash occurred near the town of Cieza. The regional government says 23 passengers are still hospitalised and that police are investigating in causes of the crash.

Attack on bus kills 4 A pro-government Syrian newspaper and a monitoring group say that militants opened fire on a bus carrying nuclear scientists and engineers near Damascus, killing at least four men. The Watan newspaper said the men were heading to work at the Scientific Research Centre near the Syrian capital when they were attacked.

The newspaper says the four victims were Syrian nationals, and suggested al-Qaida-linked militants were responsible for the attack.

Conflict fears mount Concerns of a return to full-scale fighting in eastern Ukraine have surged as armoured convoys head to bolster rebel positions in east Ukraine and shelling rocks separatist stronghold Donetsk.

The White House has expressed grave concern at reports of Russian military reinforcements, warning that any separatist efforts to seize more territory would be a “blatant violation” of a ceasefire agreement.

European Union foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said reports of military reinforcements in Ukraine’s separatist areas were a “very worrying development” and called

on Russia to prevent further movement of “troops, weapons and equipment”.

She also called on all sides to show “restraint” and said Russia should work to find a peaceful solution while respecting Ukraine’s sovereignty.

The early hours of Sunday morning in Donetsk featured some of the fiercest combat since the September 5 signing of a frequently violated ceasefire that halted all-out confrontations across most of the conflict zone.

The Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe has voiced concern after its monitors witnessed unmarked columns of tanks and troop

carriers moving through east Ukraine in territory held by pro-Russia separatists.

Ukraine’s military has said a large convoy of tanks and other heavy weapons entered the country from Russia across a section of border that has fallen under the control of rebel fighters.

Russia denies being involved in the fighting in the east.

However, it openly gives the rebels political and humanitarian backing and it is not clear how the insurgents could themselves have access to so much sophisticated and wellmaintained weaponry.

The OSCE reports fuelled the fears of a total breakdown

in the two-month truce, with the war having already killed about 4000 people.

Ukraine’s military said on Sunday that three servicemen were killed and thirteen injured as shelling hit government positions around the region.

Two Ukrainian policemen and one civilian were also killed in the fighting, the army said.

The conflict has sent relations between Western backers of Ukraine and Russia to their lowest level in decades.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is gearing up for a fraught week of diplomacy with visits to the APEC summit in Beijing and G20 meeting in Brisbane.

Chinese President Xi Jinping and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe took a major step in easing more than two years of high tensions over contested islands and wartime history with an ice-breaking meeting during an Asia-Pacific conference. The closed-door meeting raises hopes that the countries can dial down tensions and burnishes Xi’s image as a statesman.

Iran test US drone Iran said that it has successfully tested its own version of a USmade drone based on one it captured in 2011. State TV quoted Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh, head of the aerospace division of the elite Revolutionary Guard. “As we promised earlier this year, a test flight of the Iranian version of the RQ-170 was carried out and a video will be released soon,” he said. Iran had displayed the drone earlier this year. Iran has said it managed to reverse-engineer the RQ-170 Sentinel, seized in December 2011 after it entered Iranian airspace from neighbouring Afghanistan, and that it’s capable of launching its own production line for the unmanned aircraft. - AP

Warning shots fired

■ BRITISH LIBRARY

Lost Gospel says Jesus married, had kids Jesus married the prostitute Mary Magdalene and had children, according to a manuscript almost 1500 years old unearthed at the British Library.

The so-called Lost Gospel, which has been translated from Aramaic, allegedly reveals the startling new allegations, according to The Sunday Times.

Ice-breaking meeting

Professor Barrie Wilson and writer Simcha Jacobovic spent months translating the text, which they claim states Jesus had two children and the original Virgin Mary was Jesus’s wife and not his mother.

Many experts have downplayed the biblical figure’s historical importance but, according to the translators of

the new gospel, she is of much greater significance than previously thought.

Mary Magdalene already features in the existing gospels and is present at many of the important moments recorded in Jesus’s life.

The Lost Gospel is not the first to claim that Jesus married Mary Magdalene.

Both Nikos Kazantzakis in his 1953 book The Last Temptation of Christ and, more recently, Dan Brown in The Da Vinci Code made the same allegation.

Further revelations from the book, including the names of Jesus’s children, will be released this week.

South Korean troops fired warning shots yesterday after North Korean soldiers approached too close to the border separating the rival countries, Seoul defence officials said. About 10 North Korean soldiers retreated without returning fire after South Korean troops fired 20 rounds of warning shots, the officials said on condition of anonymity, in line with office policy. There were no reports of casualties.

The incident happened near the military demarcation line inside the 4-kilometre-wide Demilitarized Zone that was created when the 1950-53 Korean War ended in an armistice.

Decile decisions Stu Oldham

EDITOR

T

he Canterbury earthquakes and Mid Canterbury’s economic growth are about to cause some headaches for local school principals.

They face an uncertain couple of weeks as they wait for the Education Ministry to say whether their schools’ decile ratings will change.

These ratings are important as they determine how much operational funding schools get each year. Usually, the higher the rating the smaller the grant.

The ratings are reviewed every five years based on what comes out of the census but the last census was delayed after the Canterbury earthquakes.

Seven years is a long time to wait to see how a community has grown and the last census shows there have been plenty of changes in Mid Canterbury since 2007.

The district’s population has increased, unemployment has dropped and household income has grown. And relative deprivation between some areas has changed.

New subdivisions have attracted new money to areas that used to have relatively modest average incomes, while house prices could have an even greater impact on family wealth.

On these measures, evidence of positive change in the district could have the opposite effect on funding for some schools by removing thousands of dollars of grants.

It is probably too glib to say this will mean some schools will have more sausage sizzles and raffles but they will certainly need to find the funds elsewhere.

And that “elsewhere” will include a school community whose resources were at a level to suggest its school needed extra resources to help students from lower socio-economic backgrounds.

The ministry has yet to say how many schools will get new ratings but, on the national level, it expects a third of schools to drop and a third of schools to rise.

Of course, “rising” remains an issue for many Mid Canterbury schools already looking at the knock-on effect of a growing province on ballooning school rolls. For the next while, they will do so unsure as to how growth may affect their funding.

YOUR VIEW Inspirational students I was an invited guest to the Year 12 prizegiving ceremony of Ashburton College. While I enjoyed celebrating the success of all the students who received trophies, cups, and certificates, I would like to highlight the achievement of a special group of students who received recognition for their participation in the reading recovery programme.

I was amazed at the large number who were recognised.

I was really impressed that so many students would give up some of their free time to help their fellow students receive a good result with their school work.

It is this kind of co-operative help that makes your school a great school and ours a great community. My thanks and congratulations to all of you

mother with three children on a benefit and paying close to $400 dollars in rent yet I still managed comfortably to feed my children. I just didn’t have my luxuries. But so what, my kids were fed and my bills were paid.

Yeah, it’s harder now days but it is possible.

Lisa King With bread $1.00 a loaf why aren’t the kids having toast or is it just laziness?

Nicky Ballard Maybe the rental cost is too dear.

Rusty Lee Korostchuk I was amazed to learn how many children at our high decile school were going hungry or had no shoes or backpacks. I guess we had been living in a world of “that would never happen here” but it is happening here.

My family struggles and we live week to week on one wage.

I always make sure my kids have three meals a day. They might be unexciting and repetitive at times but it’s all we can afford sometimes.

Two Weetbix for breakfast, sandwich, fruit, muesli bar, biscuits and chips for lunch and then meat and the veg for dinner. That doesn’t seem too difficult but for some it is. Rent, power, food that’s what comes first.

Melissa Gawn Absolutely no need for it. I used to be on a benefit with a largepercentage of it going on rent and some weeks it left me with less than $10 for groceries but my son NEVER went hungry.

Careful spending and budgeting!

AND putting your kids first helps too!

Giving ‘five on, two off’ a go

POLL RESULT Yesterday’s result Q: Should the on-field rugby referee be able to use the big screen?

Yes 58%

FROM THE FARM

A

number of comments have been made about the working hours of staff on dairy farms and the amount of time off our staff receive. Any perception of working every single second doesn’t exactly help when you are trying to attract quality Kiwis into dairying.

Questions to me include: “why don’t dairy farm workers work five days just like everyone else?”

The standard dairy farmer response is that the cows don’t take the weekend off and someone has to milk them. It is true dairy farms operate seven days a week during the season. Yet it is also true that some farms are starting to run “five days on, two days off ” rosters and this is what I have been running on my farm this season.

So dairy farmers and similar businesses in the primary industries may be interested in my experiences, both positive and negative.

Prior to adopting five on, two off, we’d previously run a roster that had my workers doing 11 on and three off. While that may seem Victorian, it was only the essentials, like milking and any feeding that were to be done on a weekend, if you happened to be rostered on.

Given that’s a common roster in our industry why did we change?

It wasn’t a visit from the Ghost of Dairying Future, as in A Christmas Carol, but walking the talk as a farm leader.

To do my role as Federated Farmers’ Dairy chairman justice, I need a good team to take care of the farm. This means better than average staff in the roles we have so a five on, two off roster was a way to make our farm attractive to the staff I want and need.

Finally, with our oldest girl starting school, it means Saturday morning sports aren’t that far off. Coming up with a roster where I will actually be able to go and see them play each week is another bonus. It also

enables me to do the same for the farm manager, who also has a young child. Finally and just maybe, I might be able to carve out some “me time” at the rifle range putting my target rifle to good use. I haven’t given up on the Olympics just yet!

So that’s the theory, what was the reality?

First, the good points. Since our weekly hours were roughly the same we didn’t lose any productivity. That also goes to underscore that our original roster in terms of hours worked, wasn’t as Victorian as it may sound when splashed on Twitter.

By making Saturday and Sunday regular working days, it also meant those non-essential but important daily jobs got done instead of being left for Monday.

The not so good points were that for most of the week we operated at minimum staffing levels. In theory that’s fine for in our weekly roster all the jobs should still get done and we should still have time up our sleeves to deal with the unex-

pected.

In reality, we found the lost flexibility of an additional person hit us when things went pear shaped, like they inevitably do in spring.

There were probably periods where we ended up working longer hours than we would have under the old roster. Admittedly, if it wasn’t for the fact that I was busy off farm and if I had been a full-time labour unit rather than just half of one, then I could have scheduled things a bit differently to help overcome that.

For next spring, we will get a temporary staffer in just to cover the busy spring period.

The next issue we have all struggled to get our heads around is the fact that Saturday and Sunday are now regular workdays. If you’re rostered on you are working the whole day and not doing just the essentials.

My gut tells me we were initially not nearly as productive on weekends, myself included, as opposed to the working week. That said this is new so

like adjusting to shift work, we are getting used to it.

In terms of differentiating my farm, I am currently advertising for a new staff member.

Rather than being inundated by applications attracted by ‘five on, two off ’ it is surprisingly light.

It could be the time of the year and it could be that the ‘weekend’ for this role is Thursday and Friday; potential applicants may prefer the traditional Saturday and Sunday, at least every second week.

So yes, five on, two off has its positives but it also has some negatives too. We have a few lessons to take from this spring and I hope we’ll reduce the negatives and increase the positives.

My key message is that five on, two off is doable in the context of modern employment practices, but you need to have good plans to ensure it works.

■ HIGH COURT

Bankruptcy case delayed

By HamisH FletcHer Former Blue Chip boss Mark Bryers is likely to stay bankrupt until at least March next year with his High Court hearing delayed while the parties argue about evidence.

Bryers was declared bankrupt in October 2009, owing creditors – by his own estimate – $173 million.

Bryers has lived across the Tasman since before his bankruptcy and the New Zealand Herald this year revealed he was using the name Mark Ryan to run a business in Australia.

People are normally automatically discharged from bankruptcy after three years but in Bryers’ case the Official Assignee (OA) objected to his release.

The Blue Chip co-founder applied to be discharged, which means he is due to go through a public examination in the High Court at Auckland.

Former Blue Chip boss Mark Bryers will have to wait until at least March next year to find out if he will be discharged from bankruptcy.

While that three-day hearing was scheduled to take place this week, it has now been put off until March 2 next year.

quested by the OA after Bryers filed affidavits from third parties in support of his application.

An argument about the admissibility of these affidavits is

it could be turned “into a media spectacle”.

However, a High Court judge rejected his application to be examined via video-link – so if Bryers wants to get out of bankruptcy, he will need to return to this country for the hearing.

Bryers was the co-founder of the collapsed Blue Chip property investment company, which targeted people concerned about retirement.

Thousands of people invested with it and were left out-ofpocket after Blue Chip’s collapse.

He admitted 34 charges in 2010, including for book- and record-keeping failures under the Companies Act and the Financial Reporting Act. He was sentenced to 75 hours’ community work and a fine of $37,500, which was reportedly left unpaid until 2012.

Loan to value ratios on bank mortgage lending could be in for a change this week when the Reserve Bank releases its financial stability report.

The rules came in last October, limiting the total amount banks could lend to borrowers with deposits of less than 20 per cent.

But tomorrow the Reserve Bank report could signal an end to the regime and finance minister Bill English told National Radio yesterday that pressures were easing, decisions on LVRs were for the Reserve Bank to make, but he thinks its managers will move.

“They find themselves in a world where the current interest rate pressure is less than they expected and probably house price inflation is a bit lower than they expected.

“In fact most of the content of the current inflation rate is related to housing but it’s lower than everyone thought it would be,” he said on Morning Report.

LVRs may be coming to an end which will be great news for home buyers.

LVRs were always supposed to be a temporary measure and he expects the central bank will end them, but he does not have a time line.

Phil Twyford, Labour’s housing spokesman, has just released a statement saying LVRs are a failed experiment from finance minister Bill English to tame Auckland house prices.

The restrictions caused collateral damage to first home

buyers and other regions, he claimed. “The possible end of LVR mortgage restrictions is good news for first home buyers struggling to get into the market and for those in regions where house prices aren’t spiralling out of control.

“They have caused more harm than good with house prices falling in the regions and first home buyers being shut out of the market.”

FMA clears Gentrack on prospectus The Financial Markets Authority has cleared Gentrack Group’s prospectus but said risks could have been made clearer after the utilities and airport software firm issued a profit downgrade some six weeks after its initial public offer.

The market watchdog said the

Auckland-based company’s May offer document, which was revised in June, didn’t contain any untrue statements and wasn’t misleading, but “could have been clearer in addressing the likelihood and potential impact of certain risks.”

On August 1, the company cut

its annual profit forecast.

The FMA found that the prospectus emphasised the company’s “stable revenue base”, however the report found 30 per cent of Gentrack’s income is from major projects, which may deliver lumpy revenue.

■ SHEEP FARMING

New facility aims to boost profits A new Lincoln University education and research facility is aiming to show the future of the Canterbury landscape may not be as black and white as it seems.

The 21 hectare LincolnSheep Sheep Technology Farm facility will be used for student and farmer training, and field days and demonstrations, as well as research.

Professor Tony Bywater, of the Lincoln University Faculty of Agriculture and Life Sciences, said though sheep and beef farming had been on the back-foot, and it was now an exciting time for research in the area as there were “a whole series of questions’’ about it.

“The central question is how do they farm profitably,’’ he said. “But done right sheep farms can compete with dairying.’’

A major research focus at LincolnSheep was on maximising profitability and consistency on summer safe and summer dry production systems.

This involved increasing stock numbers to maintain pasture quality on nonirrigated land and moving sale stock to a smaller irrigated finishing block before the dry period. This would mean higher numbers and returns on the breeding unit but less water use.

The east coast of the South Island has had some rain but still soils are dryer than average and the rain was accompanied by a cold snap.

Weather next week is predicted to warm up and with the rain, grass growth rates should move again, ahead of stock consumption.

Silage harvesting is now in full swing in Canterbury as surpluses are harvested and with pictures of low irrigation storage lakes, farmers in those areas may need these supplements if restrictions occur.

Peak milk flows have arrived and are predicted to hold longer than normal and processors seem to be coping well with the increased volumes.

The dairytrade auction prices eased for all commodities sold except whole milk powder, but significant lifts will need to be seen if the payout is to start with a 5.

Mating is in full swing nationally with LIC noting a record for semen sales and some northern farmers are not using bulls for later cows, instead purchasing early calving straws as a cost saver.

Feed and farm maintenance costs are the areas managers should look at suggest advisers, as lowering costs and increasing production will be the targets to remain viable in this difficult payout year.

Lamb With the Christmas chilled shipping deadline passing, schedules eased and lambs are now being processed to frozen production.

Alliance released it’s $17.6m profit result and enables it for the first time for three years, to pay a small rebate on all stock classes.

Professor Bywater said irrigating a finishing block to intensify numbers would not be capital free but would be about one-third the cost of a dairy conversion, which, with nitrate levels coming under scrutiny, may not seem as attractive as it once did.

Research would also look at ewe elasticity by using a CT scanner to measure body composition over a full production season. This could give some guidelines on how the fat or protein content is changing by looking at body weight changes as they occur.

In the south, farmers are reporting some scabby mouth vaccine failure and urge all who use this vaccination to check on its uptake.

Mutton schedules have bounced back from their seasonal lows as low stocks and reducing sheep numbers stimulate demand.

Wool A small South Island wool sale of mainly hogget, merino, mid micron and crossbred wools sold well with all indicators lifting except mid micron.

Main shearing will be starting soon and with a milder winter and easy spring, wools will be of good quality, and with the currency easing there is optimism that prices should hold.

Beef More schedule rises this week as the beef boom continues although at these levels some consumer resistance could occur, with cheap chicken and pork in the US an economic alternative.

Prices reached a peak in the Canterbury saleyards, with the Show week competition for quality prime steers breaking records in all classes.

Cattle farmers in the south are being warned to keep a watch out for theileria infection in their animals as an outbreak has been diagnosed on the West Coast.

Deer Venison schedules eased again this week as sea freight for chilled product has finished but values earned in September were 14% stronger than last year.

With reported lower stocks held, it is hoped summer schedules will not fall by as much as other years and finishers profits improve to reignite industry growth.

■ CROP FARMING

Farmers say grain silos empty A recent arable industry survey has revealed carryover grain stocks are at the lowest level for years.

The data, released by AIMI (arable industry marketing initiative) looked at planted areas, planting intentions and grain stocks for wheat, barley and oats as of October 10.

It was compiled from four surveys involving 122 growers over a 12-month period.

Stocks of carryover (unsold) grain are down to 26,000 tonne of feed wheat, compared to 53,000t in 2012 and 75,000t the previous year. Milling wheat is down to 9000t, 20,000 less than last year.

Stocks of sold grain stored on farm are also well down, with the amount of feed wheat down 40,000t on the previous two years to 66,000t this year. Feed barley is down 20,000t to 34,000t this year.

Overall stocks of feed grains, both sold and unsold, is just 150,000t compared to about 288,000t last year, and 360,000t in 2012.

The area of feed barley planted for the 2015 harvest is up 15.5 per cent on last year, to about 62,000ha nationwide, feed wheat is up by 7.6 per cent to 37,000ha, and milling wheat remains static on last year, but down 9 per cent on 2013 figures.

Grain imports hit nerve

By Michelle NelsoN

Michelle.n@theguardian.co.nz

Despite the decrease in carryover feed grain, prices have fallen in recent months, driven in part by imported grain.

Two Mid Canterbury arable farmers have different views, but both said the outcome was likely to be less grain grown on the plains.

Valetta farmer and industry

spokesperson David Clark said he was aware that farm supply company Farmlands was one of many companies which are importing grain into New Zealand at the moment.

“That’s market forces in action, it’s not pleasing but it’s the reality,” he said.

“There were some very, very good selling opportunities for grain over this past winter, and

historically there was a very fair price on the table.”

During the winter, on farm prices for feed wheat peaked at $450, with barley close behind.

Mr Clark said the world price has retracted significantly from that point, but was starting to build up again, driven by production concerns in Australia.

“The latest AIMI cereal survey indicates that there’s very little

free grain left on farm for sale, in comparison with the last three years. We will go into this harvest with the silos basically empty. If a company was in the marketplace trying to buy grain at very fair prices, and they couldn’t satisfy the demand, I guess it’s only natural that they would look to import the shortfall.”

He said New Zealand grain had found an enthusiastic market

within the country’s dairy industry, but had largely lost the pig and poultry industry.

“We need to entice those New Zealand buyers back to buying New Zealand grain. If Australian grain becomes more expensive and harder to procure, we might get the opportunity to sell grain to those buyers who have been sourcing it from other far-flung areas around the world.”

Imported feed wheat was getting up to the $420-$430 price range – equivalent to where the local market had shrunk to in recent months.

However, a Mayfield farmer, who does not wish to be identified, is not so confident about the future of the industry. He says cereal cropping is at risk, under pressure from changing land use and imported feed grain.

“Thirty years ago 60 per cent of Mid Canterbury farm land was dedicated to cropping, the remaining 40 per cent was a mixture of sheep, beef and dairy operations,” he said.

“Today about 72 per cent has been turned over to dairy and dairy support operations.

“We’ve just come out of three or four tough years, with low prices caused by carryover grain – prices had just lifted again.”

However, he said Farmlands has recently imported some 10,000 tonne of feed wheat and barley, through an agreement with Western Milling, dropping the price for homegrown grain from $440t, to $380t within two weeks.

“We can’t shift any grain at the moment,” he said.

He dismisses claims there is insufficient grain left in local onfarm silos to meet demand.

He also claims a major dairy company’s advisory arm has directed its farmers to carry no more than a month’s worth of feed grain at any time.

“We get calls from dairy farmers saying they need grain to feed to cows that night,” he said.

He has also heard whispers of the same farmers being advised to wiggle out of $400t feed grain contracts already signed for the coming season. “We have already decided to plant less grain this season, we will be growing pulses (such as marrowfat peas) and brassicas instead.

“Last year when dairy farmers got top dollar, they didn’t offer us more for fodder beet or feed grain, but this year when the (milk) price has dropped they are pushing to lower prices for cereals, maize and winter feed crops,” he said.

MIE endorses single co-op candidate The Meat Industry Excellence (MIE) group says it will endorse just one new candidate for Silver Fern Farms’ Co-op elections.

It says the move acknowledges the contribution that Silver Fern Farms chairman Rob Hewitt is making to preserving and strengthening the co-operative model.

MIE chairman John McCarthy said recent SFF road show meetings underscored the gains the co-op had made in addressing its many challenges, but also the fact that a window of opportunity existed to achieve a farmer-owned and controlled industry model.

“SFF’s result shows a company turning its fortunes around,” said Mr McCarthy. “While their capital needs remain, and this brings with it some risk, what’s more apparent is the opportunity.”

He said that, given Mr Hewitt was standing for re-election as chairman, MIE had decided it would restrict its involvement in the SFF elections to a single candidate.

“In our view continuity of chairmen is important as our co-operatives work towards a more viable long term strategy,” he said. “This is especially so given the CEO vacancies at both co-ops.”

Disease strikes dogs Dogs have been struck with the return of a killer disease in Northland, prompting vets to warn owners to keep pets’ vaccinations up-to-date.

Several cases of parvovirus have been reported in Whangarei region, ahead of the summer period when it generally becomes more prevalent.

The Northland Veterinary Group (NVG) recently had its first case of the season and was prepared for more, veterinarian Jane Nichols said.

“We tend to see it as a midto-late summer disease. We had quite a lot last year, so we hope it won’t be as bad as that.”

A highly contagious viral disease that affects the intestinal tract of dogs, Ms Nichols describes parvo as “like human dysentery - a very severe vomiting and diarrhoea”.

“The gut almost rots out and you can often see blood in the stool. A lot die from it. It’s rather depressing for us.”

NVG veterinarians take dogs suspected of being infected through a side-door at the centre, into an isolation room to avoid contamination of other dogs, Ms Nichols said. “It’s a serious disease - it’s got to be treated as such.”

■ TAFFETA TURNS HEADS

Second look brings dress to light

By Kathleen Stringer They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Sometimes all you need is the image to convey your message. On other occasions, however, you do need to say something more than ‘look at this’. A case in point is this dress. I glanced at the image while looking for something to write about and thought this brown dress with bead trim rather too plain to bother with.

However, we considered it for part of our impressive textile display and once I saw it, my opinion changed. It is stunning.

In the right light the taffeta shines, and the bead trim consists of tiny pearls.

But it is the style of the costume that is the highlight for me. The tunic style top is cut very high at the front, made to be worn over a plain skirt. The back is longer and cut in a ‘tail’ shape, made to be worn over a bustle.

Sadly, the size of the garment is such that even with the smallest of mannequins we may not be able to display it, so we won’t be able to really see how

smart the garment would have been when worn. The dress was made in England and was the wedding dress of the mother of a Miss Townsend, who worked at Arthur Cates. Judging by the style and quality of the fabric I estimate the garment would be late 1880s. It’s quite a treasure.

The museum has been accessioning items into its collection since 1976. A recataloguing project, which included photographing every item, has assisted us in getting a good idea of what we have stored away.

Sometimes, however, we really need to see the actual item to fully appreciate what gems we hold. As we hold so much and ‘treasure’ and ‘gem’ are subjective terms, (I’m sure most male readers wouldn’t be so enthusiastic and emotive about this old frock!) we can’t hope to display everything. However, with photos and words we can give you access to our entire collection in a digital form. But should you wish to see a particular item, staff are able to get it out for you. We look forward to sharing the community’s collection with you in the near future.

■ ARMISTICE DAY

End of the war to end all wars

By Michael Hanrahan

T

oday is Armistice Day. At the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month in 1918 the War to End All Wars, World War One, came to an end.

There was a time when this day was treated as being very significant. Thinking back to the beginning of my school days in Ashburton, a very long time ago, classes stopped at 11am and everyone stood in silence for a minute.

The significance of this eluded those of us who were still in primer classes and as we went on through the school the significance of the day seemed to diminish. Perhaps our primer teacher had a reason for particu-

larly remembering the first war, but more likely it was because the Second World War was a very fresh memory and Anzac Day had become the day to commemorate the nation’s war dead.

Some other countries still commemorate Armistice Day, but mark it as Remembrance Day in a similar manner to the way we mark Anzac Day. As time has passed, much of the history surrounding the actual Armistice has been forgotten and some myths have arisen.

The Armistice itself is the document signed by all the warring parties. While it marked a victory for the Allies and a complete defeat for Germany, it was not a surrender by Germany, but an agreement to withdraw their troops into Germany, exchange

prisoners, pay reparation and dispose of armaments. It was to be a further six months before an actual peace treaty, the Treaty of Versailles, was signed.

The timing of the Armistice could be seen as somewhat cynical. It is popularly believed it was signed at 11am that day, but it was actually agreed to at 5am following three days of negotiations with the document being signed between 5.12am and 5.20am. It took effect at 11am, particularly because of the day/month combination, but also because the Allies wanted their troops in the best position should fighting recommence.

During the six-hour delay a number of men were killed in continuing fighting, the last being an American soldier, just one

minute before the 11am deadline.

The document was signed in the private railway carriage of French Marshall Ferdinand Foch on a siding deep in a French forest. The German delegation, travelling in five cars, was escorted for 10 hours across devastated areas of France.

There was no opportunity for them to negotiate and the need for Germany to sign was reinforced by the abdication of the Kaiser on November 10.

A museum building was eventually erected to house the railway carriage. However, after the Nazis invaded France in World War Two a further armistice was signed between Germany and France, establishing an occupation zone. Hitler chose the

carriage as the place for the signing. Three days later the site was destroyed on Hitler’s orders, the carriage being taken to Berlin. Five years later it was destroyed by SS troops and buried.

After the war German POW labour was used to restore the Armistice site to its original state. A replica carriage was placed there in 1950 and parts of the original returned to a new museum which today is a popular place to visit for descendants of those killed.

Today the Ashburton Museum is marking the beginning of its World War One Centennial project between 10.30 and 11am by raising a special flag on a very significant flagpole outside the new museum in West Street.

Roger Federer was back in the groove yesterday at the ATP World Tour Finals as the six-time champion defeated Milos Raonic in straight sets, while Japan’s Kei Nishikori made a dream debut with a surprise maiden victory over Andy Murray. Federer last won the prestigious season-ending event at London’s O2 Arena in 2011 and the world No.2 put in a powerful 6-1 7-6 (7-0) performance, featuring 24 winners, avenging his loss to Raonic last month in the Paris Masters quarter-finals. At 33, Federer has been in age-defying form this year and he arrived as the oldest player to qualify for the tournament in his record 13th consecutive appearance.

Campese returns Playmaker Terry Campese has been welcomed back to the Canberra fold and is set to be a key player for the Raiders in the 2015 NRL season, according to representative forward Josh Papalii. Campese’s future in the nation’s capital has been the source of much speculation since he was a no-show when the Raiders returned to pre-season training last month. The club said the 30-year-old veteran of 139 NRL games requested an extra month’s break before beginning his 2015 campaign, while sources close to the former Kangaroo were reported to have said he was told not to show up. But Papalii, who scored a try in a robust performance in the Kangaroos 4418 win over Samoa which booked them a berth in Saturday’s Four Nations final, said Campese will play with the club next year. - AAP

Johnson ‘huge threat’ Maturing New Zealand playmaker Shaun Johnson shapes as the man Australia have to stop in Saturday’s Four Nations final in Wellington.

Johnson has been a revelation for the unbeaten Kiwis in the tournament behind the menacing New Zealand pack and was a key player in their convincing 30-12 opening round win over Australia. The halfback has combined brilliantly with Manly’s Kieran Foran - and Kangaroos skipper Cameron Smith says Johnson has become the Kiwis Test spearhead with a series of consistently impressive performances at representative level. “He is a huge threat given his ability to run the ball,” Smith said. “Any time you give a guy like Shaun Johnson an opportunity on the back of quick play the balls and on the front foot he is always dangerous.”

City down Kings Reggie Jackson scored 11 of his 22 points in the fourth quarter to help Oklahoma City beat Sacramento in the NBA yesterday. Jackson scored eight points in the final 2:17, going 6 of 7 from the free throw line. Jeremy Lamb scored 17 points as they improved to 2-1 at home. Meanwhile Kobe Bryant and Jeremy Lin each scored 21 points as Los Angeles rallied to beat Charlotte for their first victory of the season after five straight losses. Carlos Boozer added 16 points in Byron Scott’s first win as Lakers coach. Their victory left Philadelphia as the NBA’s only winless team at 0-7.

In brief NZ Trotting Cup ■ ■ ■ ■

■ ■ ■ ■

■ ■ ■ ■ ■ ■

Inaugurated – 1904 First winner – Monte Carlo (trotter) owned by T. Yarr and driven by B. Edwards Most wins – Indianapolis (1934, 1935, 1936), owner GJ Barton; False Step (1958, 1959, 1960), owner J. Smyth; Terror to Love (2011,2012,2013), owner Terry McDonald.

Oldest winners – Harold Logan, 1932 and Flashing Red, 2007, both 10-year-olds.

Winner off the longest handicap – 60 yards (55 metres): Harold Logan, 1932, Highland Fling, 1948.

Fastest time – Changeover, driver David Butcher, 3:56.4, 2008.

Slowest time – Birchmark, driver D. J. Price, 5:17.6, 1905.

First driver to record four wins – J. Bryce, 1916, 1925, 1926, 1933.

Enjoying the hype Paul Court says he’s learned to enjoy the hype as his horse Terror To Love attempts something never achieved in New Zealand harness racing. The seven-year-old pacer will bid to win his fourth New Zealand Cup in today’s $700,000 feature over 3200m at Addington. Court trains Terror To Love in partnership with father Graham, and says his father isn’t especially enjoying the publicity. “But I think you’ve got to embrace it and enjoy it,” Court said. “We’re very lucky to have a horse with a chance to do something like this, and it’s really good for harness racing. But it will be good to get the race out of the way.”

- AAP

TAB likes Terror Terror To Love joined Indianapolis (1934-36) and False Step (195860) as a three-time winner of New Zealand pacing’s biggest event in 2013, adding to victories in 2011 and 2012. He has had three starts this season for two wins and a fastfinishing sixth and Court says the horse is as well as he has ever been.

He was the $2.40 favourite on the New Zealand TAB yesterday, with Christen Me ($4.20), Australian visitor For A Reason ($8.20) and Adore Me ($9) the only others in single-figure odds. Australia has two challengers, with For A Reason being joined by Interdominion runner-up Seel N Print.

- AAP

Hands favoured Champion trainer Mark Purdon says bookies and punters have read today’s $700,000 New Zealand Trotting Cup wrong. He believes Hands Christian, the $11 chance he trains with partner Natalie Rasmussen, is a better bet than their Cup third favourite Adore Me. In fact, Purdon and Rasmussen have both thought that for the past month and are even more convinced after events of the past week. Adore Me beat Terror To Love over 3200m on this track in the Easter Cup in April, is a glamour mare with an imposing strike rate and won the Flying Stakes at Ashburton last start, beating all of today’s major New Zealand players. But they believe Hands Christian has a better draw, more consistent manners and more improvement in him.

■ NEW ZEALAND CUP

Cup history beckons

BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Ricky May was up early today, he had a few jobs on the to-do list.

After a quick breakfast he headed out to the yard, geared up his horses and did what he does most mornings, jogged the track on his farm, working his team ahead of Ashburton’s race day on Thursday.

It was a day like any other on the May’s Methven farm, but it was a day that could end in glory for May. It’s New Zealand Trotting Cup day and May is hoping it will be a good pay day.

Last year he drove his way into the harness racing history books by winning his seventh New Zealand Cup; this year he’s hoping to lift the bar one notch higher for the challengers to come, driving win number eight.

Rather than talk up his chances, however, May is happier to talk up the other champ in the team, Terror to Love.

The Terry McDonald seven year old won the cup in 2011, 2012 and 2013, creating his own record, and May is quietly confident that win number four could be on the cards today.

Their last outing was at Addington trials on Tuesday and the horse felt good.

“He did everything we asked of him,” May said.

He and May have a long established partnership that started as a good turn for mate Jim Curtin.

Curtin and Terror to Love took the cup in 2011, but when cup day 2012 rolled around a prior commitment to another owner kept Curtin out of the sulky and May become the replacement.

He won, giving the horse a back to back cup record and elevating May to top equal in the cup win stakes with six.

The six-win record had been held unchallenged by Cecil Devine since 1979.

Looking ahead to today’s big race, May says he’s pretty confident with the horse, but concedes anything can happen on track when 15 of Australasia’s best are racing for big stakes.

“He really doesn’t feel any different to last year; it’s amazing how he still feels the same really.”

May knows it will be tough on the track today, says any one of about six horses could take the cup, but he’s stopping short of naming names.

Cup day for May, however, is about more than just the big race.

He has an almost full card of drives – 10 from 12 - and said the straight eight heading into the cup means he won’t be thinking about the main race until race time. “ I’ve got some pretty good

drives either side of the cup and I’ll be focusing on those.

“When it comes to the cup, there’s no real game plan, it all depends how the race is run,” he said.

And he’s not looking ahead post-race either.

As he has done for the past few cup days, if May makes the winner’s podium, he’ll have half his mind focused on the next drive.

Most years he’s forced to make a mad dash from podium into his next sulky leaving the speeches to the speech makers.

Owner Terry McDonald is pretty optimistic about his champion’s chances of a four-peat, and if

the race pans out the way the team hopes then the night will be spent in McDonald tradition at the Christchurch Casino.

While he’ll be wearing a new set of racing gear this year, May says he’ll bring back his old gold helmet.

“It’s the one I’ve won the last five cups with and I’ll be wearing it again this year,” he said.

Ricky May: Chasing his seventh NZ Cup win.

Mid Canterbury cup trifecta a possibility

BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

If the racing gods smile on Ashburton, today’s New Zealand Trotting Cup could see the district score a trifecta.

While Methven driver Ricky May has all the cards in his favour as he chases his eighth cup win with three time winner Terror to Love, there will be two other drivers from the Ashburton District also chasing cup honours.

Rakaia trainer Gerard O’Reilly will have just the second cup day start in his driving career and yesterday admitted he was pretty excited about being on-track, taking part in the biggest race of the year.

He’s driving well-performed Tiger Tara, trained by Geoff

Dunn and said the four-yearold – the youngest horse in the field – is in great condition for the cup.

“He’s won his last three starts and he’s a nice wee stayer, but he is a notch below the top ones,” O’Reilly said.

However, he’s not counting out a stirling performance by the youngster.

“If he can make his own luck he’ll go hard out all the way. He’s got a good runner’s chance.”

He’s been in the sulky for Tiger Tara from day one, knows the horse well and believes he’s in racing form that could see him finish in the first five – if the race goes his way.

His first cup drive was several years ago, and wasn’t memorable.

“That one just went round the track,” O’Reilly said.

For him it will be a long day.

He’ll work his own horses before heading to Addington where he has six drives booked on his race card.

In his mind there’s no doubt about the winner - Terror to Love - again.

Trainer driver John Hay is hedging his bets on the day.

He trains well performed Jimmy Johnstone, he’s a part owner and he’ll be driving the six-year-old in the big race.

Last year Jimmy made the cut for race day, but a late minute illness forced a scratching.

This year he’s looking and feeling great, Hay said.

Hay’s no novice to cup day and is always reluctant to com-

mit to having a chance at stake money.

“The horse is looking good and he’s going as good as he’s ever done, but he’ll need everything in his favour,” he said.

Jimmy Johnstone might be a good solid performer but where he finishes in the field will come down to the luck of the other runners, Hay said.

The outcome of this year’s cup is too close to call, he says.

“You’ve got Adore Me, Christen Me and Terror to Love, there are a good half dozen horses that could win.

“Jimmy can’t beat the top horses, he never has done and never will do probably but he deserves a cup day crack, he’ll try hard and he’ll give it his best shot.”

Ref in the spotlight Nigel Owens, who had charge of the All Blacks, was the last bastion of hope. Now he’s a basket case just like all the others and rugby’s governing body faces a major problem in finding referees capable of performing at the World Cup. The Welsh referee controlling the All Blacks’ test at Twickenham had a bizarre and frankly astonishingly bad game. No one expected him to melt down the way he did but the man many, including the All Blacks, saw as the best referee in the world blundered his way through 80 minutes as if he was determined to prove he had no idea. Diplomacy gripped All Black No 8 Kieran Read when he was asked about the Welshman’s performance. “There were certainly some interesting calls going on. Whether they were at the hindmost feet, I am not sure, we will have to have a look at that,” he said.

Time for test hockey It’s a big week ahead for New Zealand’s national hockey teams with both in action at home against quality sides. The national men’s team will play four tests against world No14 Japan in Wellington and Kapiti, from November 18-22. Around the same time, the women’s Black Sticks have three tests in Wellington against world No2 Australia. With the retirement of the ageless veteran Dean Couzins, star attacker Simon Child takes over the captaincy of the sixth-ranked men for the series.

Points for Rio One podium finish but important points; that was New Zealand’s lot at the opening track cycling World Cup event in Mexico. The best result on the final day yesterday was a fourth to Commonwealth Games individual sprint champion Sam Webster, who was also part of the trio who finished third in the sprint 24 hours earlier. “We came over here to benchmark ourselves against the rest of the world,” head coach Dayle Cheatley said. “We did rides that we thought we were capable of doing. The bonus of that is that it has put us right up there near the top end of the field which is great [with] Olympic qualifying points for us.”

Top golf in Auckland Top-drawer professional golf is coming back to Auckland.

Rosberg takes Brazil Nico Rosberg kept alive his world title hopes when he won yesterday’s Brazilian Grand Prix ahead of his Mercedes team-mate and championship leader Lewis Hamilton. Rosberg’s triumph ended Hamilton’s run of five straight wins and reduced the Briton’s lead in the championship from 24 points to 17 with one race remaining, the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on November 23.

Juniors fight out court supremacy

By Jonathan Leask

Jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

Hot conditions were matched by the action on the court at the Mid Canterbury Primary-Intermediate Singles Championships with plenty of boilovers at the Ashburton Trust Tennis Centre on Sunday.

The year 7/8 boys had the biggest field of the day and provided one of the boilovers,

as second seed Sam Bubb tipped over top seed Edwin Dargue 7-5, 4-6 13-11.

Edwin’s younger brother Harry suffered a similar fate in the year 5/6 boys as the top seed tumbled to second seed Tyler Leonard 8-9 in the final.

The biggest upset came in the year 3/4 where the unseeded Luke Slee came out

■ CYCLING

on top of the round robin despite a loss to top seed Lachlan Adam.

Then in the Novice 3/4 boys, Jacob Adam took down top seed Gus Preston to come on top.

The year 5/6 girls had a round robin that was a three way tie decided on a countback, eventually going the way of Lydia Pye after top seed Sophie Innes lost to fellow run-

ner-up Amelia Mckeown.

The year 7/8 girls went to script as top seed Sophie Ness, 6-1, 6-4 beat second seed and sibling Millie Ness while Victoria Talbot won the girls’ year 3/4 title.

A number of the juniors will head away this weekend for the Canterbury Primary-Intermediate Championship at Wilding Park in Christchurch.

■ CRICKET

Marshall lifts Peach Cup Hawke Cup warm-up Matt Marshall won the sprint to the line to lift the Peach Cup as the Tinwald Cycling Club travelled to Methven on Sunday.

The 45km handicap event saw a good field of 45 riders go to the line.

Marshall and his co-markers worked their way through the field from the break mark to find the front of the race inside the last two and half kilometres. With a tight finish in the making, Marshall showed real strength to gap the group to comfortably claim the win and the cup.

Sam Letham continued his stellar form securing second in a tight finish with third placed Wayne Clement.

Scratch rider Steve Hands

rode the course in 69.48 minutes to secure fastest time.

The juniors and division 2 competed over 15km.

Ethan Titheridge opened his season’s account with a good win in the juniors keeping the chasing riders at bay. Madison Clark pulled out a top shelf effort to be right on his tail and deservedly secure second place while Rosie Grey continued to ride strongly to take third.

Bailey O’Donnell covered the distance in 26.43 minutes to take fastest time honours.

Janette Hooper claimed victory and fastest time honours in division 2 with Keryn O’Donnell second.

This weekend the club will contest a 48km handicap event at Wakanui.

The Mid Canterbury senior representative cricket team claimed a 68-run win over Marlborough in Cheviot as they begin preparations for their upcoming Hawke Cup campaign.

Opting to bat first opener James Southby got the innings off to a good start with his 63, the third man out at 123/3. A middle order collapse resulted in Mid Canterbury being 145/7 when James Fitch departed for 27. Tom Meyrick’s unbeaten 20 helped the side through to 181 all out in the 46th over. Meyrick (1/17) then had a hand in chopping through Marlborough top order taking a wicket and claiming two run outs for Marlborough to be

91/4. They too suffered a middle order collapse losing three wickets for six runs and the tail was unable to wag as Ben Payne (2/19) returned to the bowling crease to mop up the tail. Harry Jones and Matt Haworth also took two each.

Matt Tait, Jack Meyrick and Shaun Stagg were unavailable, playing for the Willows against Ashburton College, meaning Mid Canterbury Cricket’s Garfield Charles had to step in as number 11 - but didn’t trouble the scorers.

The next assignment is the Ron Biggar Memorial match against South Canterbury this Sunday, and their first two-day Hawke Cup match is against Otago Country on December 6-7 in Ashburton.

■ EQUESTRIAN

Success over the jumps Local equestrians found success at home and away at the weekend.

The Ashburton Area ESNZ hosted their annual two-day Jumping and Showhunter Grand Prix Show at the Ashburton Showgrounds, while in Christchurch several locals contested the National One Day Event Championships.

In Ashburton, Candace Kingsbury and Miss Serendipity II provided the lone win from the local contingent in the hotly-contested Amateur Rider, holding off 19 combinations to win with a stunning jump-off performance, finishing double clear in 32.12 seconds.

Invercargill’s Nicole White made it three wins on the trot when acing the Young Rider aboard Cricklewood Ace, following victories at Ashburton A&P and the Otago Area ESNZ Jumping and Showhunter Show in Mosgiel the previous weekend. Rakaia’s Kimberley Bird and Ngahiwi Summer were fourth in a strong field of 10.

Ashburton’s Zoe Shore and Burberry finished runner up to Alyesbury’s Chris Harris and Zilco Archie Bunker in the Seven-Year-Old Breeding Series.

Mosgiel’s Claudia Hay and Euro Sport

Centavos returned to winning form in the Horse Grand Prix, Halswell’s Steffi Whittaker continued her winning run in the Pony Grand Prix with the only double clear aboard Moonlight Glow, with Rakaia’s Jaimee Bird and Tallyho Bandit sixth.

There was also some success for locals at the Eventing Canterbury National One Day Event Championships in Christchurch at the weekend.

Rakaia’s Maddison Crowe and Brogan came in fifth in the CIC2* where Ohaupo’s Jessica Woods guided Too Predictable home clear and inside the time over the Nick Pyke-designed track for the Waiteko Trophy.

In the Class 5 Larissa Srhoy and Double Black finished runners-up to Reefton’s Eve Hawes and Spookee Possum.

It was surprise package Fraser King that came from behind to win one of New Zealand eventing’s biggest crowns.

Riding the former racehorse, Nadal KSNZ, the Cambridge lawyer produced a foot-perfect cross country effort to win the CIC3*, and with it the prestigious Forest Gate Trophy.

YOUR STARS

by Forecasters

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20) It’s the things you think you don’t have time for that are likely to be the very things you need to make time for. Avoid developing tunnel vision.

TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21) For the next 6 days you have a phenomenal line up of planets all dedicated to gaining as much relationship growth as possible, but they need your help.

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 22) Just days after a massive push to get work matters up to speed ran its course a nose for money and some financial tension are keeping you on your toes.

CANCER (JUNE 22 – JULY 24) While there may be tension as you reach some of the most intense relationship days of the year it will make sure you’re paying attention.

LEO (JULY 24 – AUG 23) Today’s distractions or complications may in fact be blessings in disguise, for it’s by working smarter that you’ll be a lot more effective.

VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 23) Life is going to get busy soon enough. Look at ways you can play hooky, bringing the fun element into everything you do.

LIBRA (SEP 23 – OCT 23) As you move into some of the most important days of the year for income you need to trust your professional instincts and gut responses.

SCORPIO (OCT 23 – NOV 24) Where last week’s Full Moon brought any personal and/or relationship tensions or issues to a head there is a chance today to clear the air.

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 24 – DEC 21) Today’s lunar vibes are likely to see financial tension, instincts, passions and your fighting spirit come together to create motivation.

CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 20) When others push your buttons today you need to look less at what they did or didn’t do and more on where your reaction came from.

AQUARIUS (JAN 20 – FEB 19) Chances are there’ll be times when you feel like the wind has been taken out of your sails today. Heed the message and slow down.

PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 21) Yet where you might think you’re playing hooky, neglecting your duties or are somehow cheating is actually a call to embrace life to the full.

Ashburton’s Jan Steenkamp competes in the seven-year-old long jump during the Arthur Cup inter-club competition at the Ashburton Domain on Sunday. Ashburton reclaimed the Arthur Cup after a year’s absence by a convincing 300-point margin from rival clubs Geraldine, Temuka, Waimate and South Canterbury.

Of the Ashburton junior athletes Ella Pearson won an impressive nine events, Jade Peters had six event wins, Jaidyn Busch had five while Ty Holderness-O’Neill, Mattewson Colquhoun, Isak Derik-Westaway and Isabella Gibson each had four wins.

Black Caps facing massive task

BY ANDREW ALDERSON It’d be intriguing to know the number of times Brendon McCullum pondered that United Arab Emirates dirham flying into the air and landing on “tails” after he’d called “heads”.

One coin toss, combined with meticulous Pakistan batting, looked to have put the match beyond reach of New Zealand, at least for victory, by lunch on the second day.

As a disclaimer, anything can happen in a test. Three of the 2144 played have even resulted in a side following-on to win, but anomalies are rare.

By this morning it’d be a surprise if Pakistan had not accumulated at least 500 with wickets to spare.

It’s not like the New Zealand bowlers - and there are six recognised experts in this XI - did much wrong. A run rate of 2.99 is testament to that.

Corey Anderson offered some respite when he struck just before lunch, dismissing Ahmed Shehzad hit wicket for 176. The opener shaped to pull but missed the ball which copped him in the ear. His bat subsequently hit the stumps. The New Zealanders celebrated; Shehzad writhed on the ground in mental and physical agony.

Azhar Ali was left not out on 73 with Younis Khan joining him.

Top juniors battle it out P20

Tim Southee and Trent Boult again pitched up to make the most of the new ball, dropped in the odd calculated short one, and tested their options bowling around the wicket.

Mark Craig offered flight but, until the final over, neither Shehzad nor Azhar took any of the visitors’ bait. They were so assured there was barely a chance to test the vocal chords for an lbw or even achieve a moral victory with one-hand, one-bounce.

Oddly enough, the most disappointed player was probably not a New Zealander.

Mohammad Hafeez could make a solid case. He missed an opportunity to gorge after getting out ‘cheaply’ for 96.

However, the pitch is due to decay.

New Zealand needs a comparable first innings total before placing faith in Craig and Sodhi who have produced credible performances so far.
