Five meth charges admitted OPERATION WEBSTER FACTS ■ ■ ■

■

Operation Webster started in Mid Canterbury on July 23. It included raids on properties across the district. There were 14 arrests and more than 40 drug-related charges were laid. It involved dozens of police from Christchurch and Timaru, including specialist drug officers and the Armed Offenders’ Squad.

A 24-year-old Ashburton woman has admitted five charges of supplying methamphetamine. Stacey Leigh Curtis, 24, appeared before Judge Joanna Maze in the Ashburton District Court yesterday to answer 11 charges relating to supplying the class A drug methamphetamine and cannabis. Curtis denied three charges of offering to supply methamphetamine and cannabis, and elected trial by jury on those matters. Her lawyer told the court she did not accept the weights the police had produced and asked that the drugs be weighed using calibrated scales and tested for purity at the ESR laboratory. On the not-guilty matters Curtis was remanded on bail for a case review hearing in November. She was convicted on the eight charges she admitted, and

sentencing will follow the trial matters. She was one of six people charged in relation to a Mid Canterbury drug sting, code named Operation Webster, to appear yesterday. When police searched the home of 58-year-old Methven woman Raewyn Jean Silcock on July 23, they found 110 cannabis plants growing under lights in the garage and 55 grams of cannabis in the house. There was indication she was dealing the class C drug. Silcock was fined $600. Vanessa Stephanie Lesley King admitted possessing cannabis for supply and selling tinnies to an undercover police officer on July 2, having made the arrangements via text messages. When her home was searched

on July 23, they found 26 tinnies. King was remanded on bail for sentencing on December 1. Pauline Wanhalla, 73, was next up. She admitted three charges of possessing cannabis for supply and three of selling cannabis. Clarification of a fourth charge, relating to selling, was sought. Russell Gordon Brown also admitted multiple charges of possessing and selling cannabis, one in conjunction with Wanhalla, who lived at the same Allenton address. When an undercover police officer knocked on his window in February, Brown sold him a tinnie. When the officer came back in March, he sold him two tinnies. The officer returned twice

in May and bought half-ounce bags of cannabis for $200 each. During the time the property was under surveillance, police observed up to 30 people visit for three to five minutes. Eight ounces of cannabis was uncovered in the July raid on the property. Brown will be sentenced on December 15. Shaun Nathan Hurst was returned from custody to plead to fresh charges, committed while he was on bail on charges laid in relation to Operation Webster. Yesterday he admitted two more charges of selling cannabis on September 11. He was remanded back to custody pending his next appearance in November.

Top of the Lake renewed The New Zealand set mystery drama Top of the Lake has reportedly been given the green light for a second season. The series, by Oscar winning director Jane Campion and writer Gerard Lee, was nominated for eight Emmys and won for best cinematography for a TV movie or mini-series. Elisabeth Moss starred as a detective investigating the disappearance of a pregnant 12-year-old girl. She won a Golden Globe for her performance in the series. Australian and British film and TV company See-Saw will again produce the series, which BBC2 has commissioned, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The series was Campion’s first return to televisions since the 1990 miniseries An Angel at My Table.

Centenarian: Staying fit the secret One of Roy King’s goals was to still be mowing his own lawns at 100. Not only is the Kamo centenarian still pushing his four-stroke Masport around his backyard, but he’s gardening, hanging out washing, and going for the occasional walk up Mt Parihaka. The former Mangawhai dairy farmer and professional runner enjoyed his 100th birthday on Sunday in a helicopter, viewing his old farms and favourite fishing and hunting spots from the skies. A father of nine, grandfather of 17 and greatgrandfather of 25, Roy said his secret to his long life has been plenty of exercise. “I’ve kept training and exercising – walking in the last few years.”

Harry Potter spin-offs announced Harry Potter author JK Rowling is working on three new wizard-based movies to be released starting in 2016, Warner Bros has announced. The first, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, will be directed by David Yates, who directed the last four Harry Potter movies, and reunite the same film-making team. It is described as “set in an extension of her familiar wizarding world, featuring magical creatures and characters inspired by Harry Potter’s Hogwarts textbook and its fictitious author”. A second movie is set for release in 2018 and a third in 2020, the studio said. The first movie was announced last month. Rowling, who has sold more than 450 million copies of the Harry Potter books, announced in September that Warner Bros had approached her about doing Fantastic Beasts. “I thought it was a fun idea, but the idea of seeing Newt Scaramander, the supposed author of Fantastic Beasts, realised by another writer was difficult. “Having lived for so long in my fictional universe, I feel very protective of it,” she said, explaining her decision to write the screenplay. Warner Bros did not announce who would direct or star in any of the three new scheduled films.

Kerr teases fans Miranda Kerr has proven she doesn’t need her Victoria’s Secret wings to flaunt her fabulous figure in lingerie. The Australian supermodel shared a snap of herself modelling a lacy navy push-up bra and matching knickers for her new Wonderbra campaign in South Korea yesterday. “Love from set in Korea xxx” she wrote next to the Instagram shot. It’s the second campaign for Kerr, who signed on with Wonderbra in February, after she modelled a sexy leopard print set for the brand in March. And the 31-year-old proved she still knows how to tease a crowd. Kerr posted another Instagram photo on Wednesday of her greeting fans on a street in Seoul – wearing a transparent black top that left part of her bra hanging out. “About last night #Korea” she playfully captioned the image.

Boy gives up his money A seven-year-old boy who was bored while visiting his dad at Waikato Hospital during the school holidays started spending his own pocket money on activity packs for sick children, but needs more help. Jacob Lowen used $70 of his own money – which at $5 a week had taken him 14 weeks to save – to buy items such as felt tip pens, miniature soldiers and dolls for the packs. But once the thoughtful Hamilton boy was down to $20.40 in the piggybank he decided to spend the rest on himself and convinced his mum Alicia to set up a Facebook page asking for donations of play items and money. He put up a poster at school and set up a Givealittle page so people had somewhere secure to send money. He also got his mum to email businesses the family shop at and five have already agreed to send items.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COURT

Threat to kill ‘frustration’ A woman who threatened to kill a HousingNZ employee, was frustrated by an eviction notice. Last month Janette Rachel Burton, 42, was sentenced to home detention on cannabis charges, laid during Operation Webster in July.

Yesterday she was back before Judge Joanna Maze in the Ashburton District Court, to face a threating charge. The court was told Burton received a 90-day eviction notice from Housing New Zealand in the days following the drug bust.

In an ensuing telephone conversation, she threatened to shoot the HNZ employee she was speaking to. Defence counsel Michelle Barrell, said her client’s frustration levels had boiled over when she was informed she had to vacate her home of

eight years. Judge Maze cancelled the home detention sentence and remanded Burton to an address approved by Probation Service, to allow her time to move her possessions. She will return to court for sentencing in December.

Skinny mannequins get the chop By Natalie akoorie New Zealand women’s clothing giant Glassons is backtracking on its use of skinny mannequins, apologising to customers for the “unattainable depiction of women”. The apology, released this evening, follows a large amount of public backlash and an online petition – which attracted 16,000 signatures in a day – demanding removal of the mannequins, which featured visible ribs. Hallenstein Glasson chief executive Graeme Popplewell said the company agreed its mannequins were unacceptable. He had ordered their removal from display in all stores. “While these mannequins are not new to the business, we have taken on-board the feedback of New Zealand women in its entirety, and we unreservedly apologise for any upset we may have caused,” he said. “The removal of the offending mannequins is effective immediately and once again we wish to reiterate how truly sorry we are to the women of New Zealand.” The backlash against the use of the skinny mannequins by the company comes as a professional women’s advocacy group called for the end of thin models and skinny mannequins in the fashion industry. And a brand expert says Glassons’ handling of the situation will influence the public’s forgiveness. Dr Mark Kilgour of Waikato University’s marketing department said the backlash against Glassons depended on whether its target market cared and how the store handled the publicity. “If they view their target audience to be put off by this, removing the mannequin and how they do it is important.” - APNZ

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COUNCIL

Flowrider bid out – for now BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Ashburton man Phill Hooper missed out on having a flowrider included as one of the signature rides in Ashburton’s new aquatic centre, but he’s not giving up on the idea. With the Ashburton District Council’s hydroslide survey ready for distribution, Mr Hooper said he was disappointed to find his high-thrill ride (similar to surfing) had not been included in the options. He’s been promoting the idea on Facebook and with more than 900 ‘likes’, said it had

clearly captured the public’s imagination. If the ride had won the day with the public it would have given Ashburton’s EA Networks Centre a ride that would have been one of a kind in the South Island, possibly New Zealand, he said. “We could have had one of these for a similar cost to the hydroslide, about $1.9 million and my argument was it was something people would have come from out of town to have a crack at.” The area set aside within the pool complex for a hydroslide was too small to accommodate

the flowrider, but this could have been installed outside the complex, he said. While there was an argument that it would only have been used during the warmer months, wetsuits would have got round the temperature issue, Mr Hooper said. Centre manager Steve Prescott wouldn’t buy into the flowrider idea, believing it would not meet the needs of the wider community. “A ride like this only meets the needs of a select group, it’s not for families,” Mr Prescott said.

Mr Hooper hasn’t given up on the idea, hoping it is something he can revive once the hydroslides are installed. “I still think this is a cool idea.” The council’s hydroslide survey will be distributed at the start of December and among other questions people will be asked to choose from a selection of ride options as well as indicating the way in which they think the project should be funded. The preferred approach will be built into the council’s longterm funding plan.

Hospital changes Christchurch Hospital’s Riverside entrance was closed this week to allow work to get under way for the new Acute Services Building to be built on site. The entrance at the rear of the hospital and over the bridge from Rolleston Avenue and Cambridge Terrace was due to be the main access route for contractors and machinery working on the hospital redevelopment. More information about parking and other transport options can be found on the CDHB website – cdhb.health.nz/parking.

Free wifi trial Free wifi might be available to patients and visitors to Ashburton Hospital after a trial at Christchurch Hospital. Canterbury DHB chief executive David Meates said almost 4000 people entered the Christchurch Hospital site each day and free wifi would allow them to stay connected to their normal lives while in hospital. The service was provided in conjunction with telecommunications provider Snap. Ashburton Hospital may provide the service following the six month trial, Mr Meates said.

Police are searching for two men who broke into an Invercargill home while armed with weapons early yesterday. Police said the men entered a home about 3am. Both men carried weapons and threatened a victim at the address, before taking off with a number of items, police said. It was believed the offenders left the scene in a 4WD vehicle. Police asked for anyone with information to contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. - APNZ

from mayor Angus McKay, the Hakatere Marae also extended the hand of friendship to the district’s new citizens, through Jane Kelly. Speaking in both Maori and English, Mrs Kelly said she was welcoming the world to

the Ashburton District. “Just as our rivers and their many channels join together in the Pacific Ocean, so the people who come here from the four corners of the world are joining together as one,” she said. As each of the 13 adults

swore their oath of allegiance or affirmation to the mayor they were also presented with a book detailing the district’s history and a Kowhai tree seedling. Seven minors were also part of yesterday’s ceremony.

The driver killed in a head-on crash in South Canterbury on Tuesday has been named by police. Barry James Collins, 47, died when his car collided with another while negotiating an easy corner on State Highway 1 near Orari, police said. The Timaru man’s passenger suffered minor bruising. A passenger in the other vehicle sustained serious injuries including a possible fractured hip, while the driver in that vehicle escaped with minor bruising. The death has been referred to the coroner. - APNZ

The Art of Holding a Great Conversation The art of conversation comes easy to Arthur Junqueira Verardo, thanks to an intensive English Language course at Aoraki Polytechnic.

Arthur came to New Zealand in April to play a season for the Geraldine Rugby Club.

The Brazilian started the four week programme speaking only a few phrases of English. Upon graduation he can hold a great conversation.

“The course was also good for me because on a farm there are only the cows to talk to,’’ he joked.

Even he was surprised at his success. “When I started I could only say a few things – like where to get food. Now I’m able to have a real conversation. “The course was great for me. It taught me a lot about English grammar and how to understand the Kiwi accent. The teachers were very kind and supportive. “I also made a lot of friends. I met people from all over the world and from many different cultures.’’

He is currently living with a friend on a farm in Geraldine.

Back home, the 24-year-old has a business management degree and works in the field of human research. His newly learned English language skills would prove invaluable in his job. “I work with huge companies all over the world. I really need to be able to speak English. “And all the people my age in Brazil can speak English. Everything seems to be in English, like the internet (for example).’’ Arthur came to New Zealand after meeting a Kiwi while playing rugby in Brazil. He has loved his time here, and as a bonus his rugby team came third in the competition.

■ TAXATION WARNING

Cafés now up for lease

IRD eyes trades on internet

By Sue NewmaN

Sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

They’re two cafés with the same owner, but they couldn’t be more different. The café space in Ashburton’s new art and heritage centre is very much the minnow and the EA Network’s Centre café the giant, in the Ashburton District Council’s hospitality basket. Both are now up for lease, but the scale and operating hours of each could not be more different. Tight conditions in the art and heritage centre’s resource consent mean the small 60 square metre downstairs café has no outdoor dining area, can have only limited signage and can only trade from 9am to 5pm six days of the week and from 9am to 7pm on Wednesdays and public holidays. Any music played in the café must be low level. The EA Networks Centre café, however, is the giant. Its 200 square metres in space, has wet and dry serving and eating areas, has outdoor seating, can trade from 6am to 11pm (8pm on Saturday and Sunday). And it comes complete with a raft of equipment. When they discussed the

café leases at yesterday’s finance and business support committee meeting, councillor Russell Ellis was concerned the smaller café might struggle to find a lessee. “Do we need to look at not getting such a full return on it to make it attractive to lease?” he said.

With expressions of interest called for both cafés, the community would tell the council what they thought the cafés were worth as business propositions, council commercial manager John Rooney said. “We’ve put it out there, let’s see what we get.”

■ MID CANTERBURY FARM SALE

OIC approval means farm now in foreign ownership Another slice of Mid Canterbury land has moved into foreign ownership with the Overseas Investment Commission approving the sale of 829 hectares on the Tinwald Westerfield Mayfield Road. The farmland was sold for $22.646 million to Andrew and Paul Turney from the United Kingdom and American company Schooner Agribusiness LLC. The buyers are existing partners in the Moonshine Farms partnership which already owns two Mid Canterbury dairy farms. The partnership has owned the farms

for almost a decade and has invested a large amount of money turning sheep farms into highly productive dairy farms. The applicants were granted consent to acquire an additional 83.1 per cent of the partnership shares from the outgoing shareholders who include Wendy Turney, wife of Andrew Turney. This increases the Turney family’s share of the partnership from 46.7 per cent to 60 per cent. In approving the sale, the commission said this would bring “substantial and identifiable” benefit to New Zealand.

WE’RE MOVING As of October 20th we will be located at our new and improved office at 161 Burnett Street. Join us on October 20th from 5.30 – 6.30pm for drinks and nibbles to celebrate our opening.

Users of the increasing number of ‘buy and sell’ pages on social media sites could find themselves in hot water with the IRD. Dozens of Facebook pages offering people the chance to advertise goods and services for free have sprung up in Ashburton in recent months, with some pages attracting thousands of “likes”. One local page had nearly 6000 members, and had been attracting dozens of posts each day. However, the IRD is warning people to be aware that online trading comes with the same tax obligations as buying and selling goods in a shop. An IRD spokesperson said Inland Revenue’s priority was to maximise the amount of revenue collected, and to improve voluntary compliance across New Zealand. “We invest a significant amount of resource into addressing tax avoidance and this includes online activity,” the spokesperson said. According the IRD website, people who sell things online on a regular basis could be regarded as being in business, and should be declaring the sales for income tax purposes. Users are regarded as being in business if they acquired the goods with the intention of on-selling, they were aiming to make a profit, or their business involved dealing in those particular goods.

■ MUDDY GOOD RUN

Getting down and dirty in Rakaia BY ERIN TASKER

ERIN.T@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

There’s going to be a whole heap of muddy good fun had in Rakaia on Sunday. More than 700 people are set to line up for the various events which make up Sunday’s Muddy Good Run, including a 5km, a 10km, a team race, a children’s race, and the new wife carrying competition. For organiser John Moore, the event is logistically challenging to set up. It takes three full days to get the course ready, and another two to dismantle it. That’s because the races are more complicated than your usual 5km and 10km race. There’s hay bales to jump over, camo nets to crawl under, cargo nets to climb over and trailers and cars to clamber over. There’s also a massive pile of top soil that will be doused with water by the

Rakaia Volunteer Fire Brigade to make the all important mud. Entries closed at midnight last night, but Mr Moore was expecting them to be up on the first two events. He was expecting around 700 people to take part all up. “Entries over the last couple of days have just been crazy,” Mr Moore said. One of the biggest growth areas has been in the children’s race category, with around 250 entrants compared to around 150 last time. There will be prizes for the best dressed, and entertainment from singer Cassie Henderson, on a day which Mr Moore hopes will see around 2000 people converge on Rakaia. The event kicks off at 10am on Sunday at the Rakaia Domain.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COURT

‘Behave or wait in prison’ – judge A 17-year-old youth facing sentencing on serious charges has been remanded on bail, with a stern warning to behave – or wait in prison. Bronson James Randal Witehira was convicted on charges of aggravated robbery, burglary, receiving cannabis for supply, theft from vehicles and possession of cannabis for supply when he appeared in the Ashburton District Court before Judge Joanna Maze yesterday. The court was told Witehira and a cooffender accosted a man on Cass Street in the early hours of June 27. The complainant was punched, knocked to the ground and kicked in an attempt to force him to give up his pin number, before the pair made off with his wallet containing bank cards, and a cellphone. The man was able to run home, and was treated in hospital. Witehira attempted to obtain money using the stolen cards at a nearby ATM,

but had an incorrect pin number. On August 1 police uncovered 43 grams of cannabis and a stolen passport, while searching Witehira’s address on a warrant. On the same day he smashed the window of a delivery van and stole a fuel card. The following day he smashed the windows of five vehicles parked outside a church and stole property. He was later found in possession of a coin purse belonging to the owner of one of the cars. Two days later he broke into a local sports shop, where he helped himself to knives, scooters and cash. His explanation was that he needed money. Judge Maze warned Witehira he was looking at a custodial sentence and warned him to come prepared for all sentencing options when he returns to court on December 1. She said any breaches of bail conditions would be treated seriously.

Judge rejects woman’s excuse of drinking after accident A Mt Somers woman who rolled her vehicle on Thompsons Track said she drank a bottle of wine after the fact, to calm her nerves. Emma Nicole McDonald, 24, subsequently returned a reading of 236 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood – almost three times the legal limit. However Judge Joanna Maze did not buy the excuse, saying it was deemed as a matter of law that McDonald had been

driving at the level recorded. The court was told McDonald failed to negotiate a moderate bend when her vehicle, which was towing a trailer loaded with a quad bike, left the road and rolled several times. The event proved costly – as alcohol was involved, she received no insurance, and yesterday she was fined $1100, disqualified from driving for eight months and ordered to pay analyst fees for the blood test.

Drink driver disqualified from driving for six months The following people appeared in the Ashburton Court before Judge Joanna Maze yesterday: Joel Stewart Hewson admitted drink driving with an excess breath alcohol level of 703 micrograms of alcohol per litre of breath (EBA 703mcg/l) – he was disqualified from driving for six months, fined $600 and ordered to pay court costs of $150. Layden Cane Hiria, 17, of Ashburton, admitted drink driving (EBA 244mcg/l) – he was disqualified for three months and fined $250. Nadia Lorraine Witehira Singh, 22, of Ashburton, was convicted on a charge of driving while suspended – she was disqualified from driving for six months from November 10, fined $130 and or-

dered to pay court costs of $130. Stephen William Millar, 24, of Ashburton, admitted a charge of driving while disqualified – he was disqualified from driving for six months and fined $200. An order was made for the confiscation of Millar’s dirt bike. Mererahi Marian Ararama, was fined $200 for driving while her licence was suspended. Corey Brett McElroy, 41, of Hampstead, was convicted of possessing cannabis and fined $150. Arrest warrants were issued for: Berent Pieter Wegman, 32, of Christchurch, Tehira Burton, of Ashburton, Laken Mark Christopher Proctor.

■ MID CANTERBURY DOG TRAINING CLUB

Club to host biggest ever show By Erin TaskEr

erin.t@theguardian.co.nz

Around 250 dogs will be put through their paces at the Ashburton Showgrounds this weekend when the Mid Canterbury Dog Training Club hosts its biggest ever show. The dog agility show is being held just one week shy of the nationals in Gore, so a lot of dogs and their North Island owners have decided to come down a week early and use the Ashburton show as last minute practise. Mid Canterbury Dog Training Club treasurer Ian Clearwater said it would consist of two full days of action, including around 40 separate events and around 69 prizegivings. The club holds two shows a year, one in February and the other – traditionally the bigger one – in spring. But this spring show was set to blow all others out of the water. It will see about 130 competitors and 250 dogs compete,

compared to a past show average of about 100 competitors and 160 dogs. “We’ve got quite a few really good ones in the Canterbury and South Canterbury region who compete really well and are dedicated to the sport, and work hard to get the best dogs,” Mr Clearwater said. The dogs will compete over set agility courses, each taking around a minute to complete, and featuring challenges like jumps, tunnels, dog walks and weave poles. The aim is to do the fastest clear round in each event. It’s a big event and logistically challenging for a club to host, but Mr Clearwater said the small Mid Canterbury club was dedicated and hard-working and everything was set for a busy, enjoyable weekend, no matter what the weather. Action will get under way at 8.30am both Saturday and Sunday, at the Ashburton A&P Showgrounds.

OUR VIEW

Surveys necessary Stu Oldham

EDITOR

I

t seems counter-intuitive to spend money on a survey that asks those who pay your bills whether they are happy with how you spend their money. But that is the way it must be in a world where the public – justifiably – expects good quality information to guide those who spend public money. The Ashburton District Council spent about $25,000 on its recent annual resident and ratepayer survey and it is fair to expect this money to be recouped. It should be recouped in wise decisions based on evidence: the results should guide council spending and to help it up its game where it is lacking. Much of the survey is a starting point for further investigation. It is one thing to know people are not happy with, say, roads but another to find a catch-all solution. That means the real value of the necessarily largely retrospective survey might not be known until the council releases its draft annual plan. By then, it should have mulled what it has learned from the survey and – with one eye on its key performance indicators – have re-evaluated spending to reflect the results. It might be that finding that three quarters of counted responses were satisfied with the current rubbish and recycling regimes will further slow the change to wheelie bins. Perhaps knowing 70 per cent of counted responses were not happy with decisions made around Ashburton’s second urban bridge will mean a redoubling in efforts to be open. Perhaps reaffirmation that attendance at the museum and art gallery declined steadily since 2010 will be reversed by the provision of a brand new facility. And, perhaps, the memory of the survey will be enough for ratepayers to pay close attention to what is in the annual plan and to reinforce its findings in their submissions. We have legitimately high expectations of our council and it makes sense that it pays for a robust examination of its performance. The pay-off will be next year, when we say we are satisfied with council’s response to the last survey.

YOUR VIEW Urban buses People have been commenting on the Guardian’s Facebook page about calls for an urban bus service in Ashburton: Having driven this service many years ago when Mid Canterbury Coach Services operated this off its own bat (no subsidies), back in the 70s the numbers were small. The only time the bus was reasonably full was for the school run from Tinwald. Ashburton to a large extent is relatively flat, easy walking and a lot of people either walked or cycled. I believe there is now a service operating in Blenheim via sponsorship via a local business and the district council. I wish Ashburton well in trying to establish the service once again, but for it to survive it will have

CRUMB

to be subsidised. Such is the way public transport works in all centres in NZ, even in the larger cities. I wish you well, good luck with this project. Rodney O’Leary What about carless seniors in surrounding areas such as Methven, Hinds, Mayfield, etc. Hospital visits to Christchurch and Ashburton are horrendously expensive and awkward, with Winz business being located in Hornby also – how are pensioners meant to afford all this? Wendi Thomas

Official information Regarding the letters pertaining to the Ashburton College school trip. Your correspondent can get direct answers to their ques-

by David Fletcher

tions by making a request under the Official Information Act and the school must answer. Making an Official Information Act request is relatively straight forward; they simply need to send a letter to Ashburton College with their questions and state in the letter that it is an Official Information Act request. There is also a website, www. fyi.org.nz, that can guide one through the process of doing this and the website will then make the response publicly available online. C. Bingham (abridged)

Great feed indeed As a visitor from Greymouth and staying in Christchurch I was fortunate to be taken to your town to watch a women’s bowls tournament. My host in Christchurch and

myself are ex-bowlers and we decided to travel south on the final day (Friday) and support a team we were both interested in. I am writing to congratulate and thank the host club, the MSA, for their friendliness and willingness to enable us to buy a lunch which was not ordered as others were. The lunch consisted of a well-filled bread bun packed with an abundance of all the good food and, if that was not enough, there was an addition of fruit and yoghurt – all for a minimum charge. Thank you to the catering staff. You were so nice and could still smile after a long week. Our day in Ashburton has and will have a long-lasting impression. Our team did not win but the welcome we received made up for that. J. and S. Bongard

Respect our town: Don’t litter D o the right thing people! I hate to dwell on the negative, but I hope by doing so I turn it into a positive. Even if it’s in just a small way. Lee from Skydiving Kiwis tagged me in a photo on Facebook about the state of the parking area at the Ashburton Airport. Sadly it was a disgrace! Fast food wrappers and drink containers left lying around on the grass area. The airport is a great spot to park up for a lunch break, watch some planes and some skydivers on a nice day, so why throw your rubbish out the car window? It got me wondering, is litter an issue elsewhere in Mid Canterbury? So I fired the question up on good old Facebook and got heaps of responses, unfortunately it was more of the same. From bottles and cans in and out of the water at Lake Hood to the grass area alongside Melcombe Street, the stories were much the same. Jen added: “Company road,

Phill Hooper OFF THE AIR

intersection of the Industrial area ... always huge wheelie marks and masses of takeaway rubbish there on a Saturday morning.... bloody mess....” Jenny got me thinking about town pride when she commented: “Outside the post office and around the corner into Cameron Street, we collect it up every morning and put it into our rubbish. Has this town lost its pride?” Sophie confirmed those thoughts with this: “I noticed this problem across town when I moved to Ashburton at the beginning of the year. It is so sad to see the little respect that, unfortunately, a lot it seems, of people have for this beautiful town. I understand that the rubbish collection is still an issue, but this is different... These people had a choice and

they chose to deny Ashburton of the respect it deserves as a community and a town. This is not good business, not for the growth of the sense of community in this town, not for tourism, which we are working very hard at promoting and certainly not for the environment. No-one wants to live in a dump, so why turn your roads and public gardens into ones?” I bet Nigel and the team at Experience Mid Canterbury must hate to see litter lying all over our region when they are working so hard to sell our region to overseas visitors? So what do we do to get these issues sorted? Here’s a couple of ideas: ■ Get the naughty boys and girls on PD to do some litter-picking-up work? ■ But I think if we all take a leaf out of the awesome parking meter lady’s book, who picks up some litter as she does her rounds and pick up some instead of stepping over it. We’ll have this place looking sweet as in no time.

I reckon there’s a good vibe about Mid Canterbury at the moment. We have sports teams kickin’ butt on the national stage including the defending Meads Cup champs, The Hammers in the semi-finals tomorrow. We have an awesome event centre. We have skydiving. We are soon to have an awesome pool and sports complex (and hopefully a flowrider) and, like it or not, an art gallery and museum. We have a lot to be proud of ! So, to those who are doing the littering, please do your best to show some pride in our town and stop throwing your crap out of the car window. If you don’t like and have no pride in Mid Canterbury, pull on your big boy’s pants and MOVE! Till next week. Hoo roo Phill Hooper is the breakfast host of Ashburton’s Hokonui radio station.

■ UNITED STATES

Ebola mis-steps mounting By Kerry Sheridan The second infection of a US healthcare worker who treated the country’s first ebola patient has exposed a series of gaps in its preparedness for confronting the deadly virus. President Barack Obama said last month the US was ready for the “unlikely event” that the haemorrhagic virus ravaging West Africa could make its way into the country, and that any emergence would be quickly contained. But when a Liberian man with a fever, body pains and recent history of travel to the country the worst-hit by current epidemic first walked into a Dallas hospital on September 25, he was sent back home after about four hours. That decision put other emergency room patients, the man’s family and hospital staff at risk of exposure to ebola. When he was rushed via ambulance back to that same hospital on September 28, vomiting and experiencing diarrhoea which made him highly contagious, dozens of healthcare staff may have been infected by not adequately protecting themselves. Thomas Eric Duncan was not diagnosed with ebola until September 30 and he died on October 8. “Unfortunately, in our initial treatment of Mr Duncan, despite our best intentions and a highly skilled medical team, we made mistakes,” admitted Dr Daniel Varga, chief clinical officer of Texas Health Resources, which runs the hospital. “We did not correctly diagnose his symptoms as those of ebola. We are deeply sorry,” he said, in written testimony to politicians on the House

Putin attending summit Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop will get a chance to raise the issue of the MH17 disaster at a summit involving Vladimir Putin in Italy. Ms Bishop and the Russian president will be among the senior politicians and leaders attending the Asia-Europe Meeting (ASEM) in Milan which starts today. Prime Minister Tony Abbott has said he wants to “shirtfront” Mr Putin over Russia’s lack of co-operation with an international investigation into the downing of the Malaysia Airlines flight. - AAP

Chemical weapons The United States government has tried to hide the extent to which its troops were exposed to chemical weapons in the aftermath of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the New York Times has reported, citing intelligence documents and former soldiers. American forces uncovered more than 5000 warheads, shells and bombs filled with chemical agents but their findings were kept secret, the Times wrote yesterday, citing government papers obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request. Before the 2003 invasion, president George W. Bush insisted that Baghdad was hiding an active weapons of mass destruction programme. - AFP

Energy and Commerce Committee, which is studying the public health response to the outbreak. The CDC has identified 118 people who either had definite or possible contact with Duncan, more than half of whom are healthcare workers. The first case of infection in the US was announced on Sunday, in Nina Pham, a nurse who had cared for Duncan, followed by another female healthcare worker on Wednesday. She has

been identified as nurse Amber Vinson, according to The Dallas Morning News. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention chief Thomas Frieden described the situation as “very concerning”. “The investigation is identifying additional healthcare workers who will be very closely monitored and we are planning for the possibility of additional cases in the coming days,” he said. The US Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention issued an alert for all 132 passengers who travelled on a flight from Cleveland, Ohio to Texas with the ebola-infected nurse who had not yet become symptomatic. Frieden warned that health workers who have been exposed to ebola patients should not use public transport. “She was in a group of individuals known to have exposure to ebola. “She should not have travelled on a commercial airline,” he said. - AFP

The former senior government adviser at the centre of alleged porn distribution involving Victorian MPs and other staffers says there’s nothing illegal in the friends swapping memory sticks containing pornography. Don Coulson, a Freedom of Information strategy adviser to former premier Ted Baillieu, has lodged a wrongful dismissal claim over his sacking in March last year just days after Denis Napthine became premier. But the government has countersued, claiming Mr Coulson must return severance pay of more than $30,000 because he allegedly stored, accessed and/or viewed a “considerable amount” of pornography in his office. Mr Coulson said memory sticks containing pornography were swapped between himself, a minister, some MPs and advisers. - AAP

■ DAIRY PRICES

Jobs lost at Fletchers

‘Nervous wait’ on milk prices

The bank said farm gate prices among other dairy producers have started to move lower but that this would take time to flow through into reduced production levels. “A good start to the Australasian production season also suggests the lack of supply will not be an issue for a while yet,” the bank said. “The market remains finely balanced, with little signs of a strong turnaround, as yet,” it said. Based on current prices, ANZ

expects farmgate a milk price of $4.85 a kg for 2014/15. ANZ said “a nervous wait lies ahead” in terms of whether auction prices can recover sufficiently to support Fonterra’s farmgate milk price forecast of $5.30. ASB Bank sees a $5.10 milk price but said the market would need to improve over the remainder of the season for this to be achieved. “We remain confident that beyond the short-term over supplied situation, the market will be more balanced, and prices will settle at a higher level,” it said. Federated Farmers dairy chairman Andrew Hoggard said in a statement that the market remained volatile and that he expected prices to oscillate until the end of this - APNZ year.

The New Zealand Racing Board lifted annual profit 0.2 per cent as record turnover on the Football World Cup, which trumped its rugby equivalent in 2011, was offset by a strong local currency and the cost of its new digital and online gambling offerings. Profit rose to $137 million in the 12 months ended July 31, from $136.7 million a year earlier, the Wellington-based legislated bookmaking monopoly said in a statement. Turnover climbed 6.7 per cent to $2.09 billion, the first time the board’s income has exceeded $2 billion as bets on the Football World Cup brought in $32.3 million, eclipsing $30.2 million punted on the Rugby World Cup in 2011. - APNZ

tenth consecutive month and growth forecasts being cut to 1.2% in 2014 and 1.3% in 2015, from 1.8% and 2.0% respectively. These latest data points have exacerbated concerns that European growth has stagnated as inflation continues to be stubbornly low and the European Central Banks stimulatory monetary policy measures seem to be having little effect. A prominent risk in global terms is the spread of the Ebola virus. The World Health Organisation announced this week that the fatality rate for the virus has increased to 70% of those infected and the number of reported cases is increasing rapidly. The World Bank estimated the cost, as the disease continues to spread, to be an economic drain of $32.6 billion by the end of 2015. East African nations affected by the virus are asking for aid to help control the spread. In more positive moves, China released trade data during the week which eased fears that the country’s economic recovery was slowing. Exports rose 15.3% in Sep-

tember, significantly beating expectations of 11.8%, while imports rose 7% compared to an expected rise of 2.7%. Later in the week inflationary data came in at 1.6%, much lower than was expected. Markets saw this as the catalyst for the Chinese government to introduce stimulatory measures to give the recovery a boost from recent weakness. Mining stocks in Australia saw the potential for the stimulus as promising and rose boldly on the news. Iron ore also jumped in price after experiencing a long period of weakness. Locally, the big news has been the global dairy trade auction as prices levelled off and eked out a small but promising gain. The average price for dairy products was up 1.4% from the previous auction, still well below the levels reached in February but never the less, heading in the right direction. Importantly for New Zealand farmers, the price for wholemilk powder appreciated 3.1%. Fonterra has said that wholemilk powder prices would need to reach $3,500 a tonne by March to maintain the current forecast farmgate milk price of $5.30 per kilo of milk solids.

Investors wary of the risks Markets have been riding a roller coaster this week, as global earnings season gets under way with mixed results and global risks become more prevalent in investors minds. Volatility has been a key feature across global equity markets as they enter into the sharpest market correction we have seen since early 2012. Most markets reached their 2014 peak during the third quarter after a very strong run, so this recent bout of weakness shouldn’t really come as a surprise to investors. However other risk factors have ramped up in recent weeks which are causing a few concerns. The end of quantitative easing is likely to come at the next Federal Reserve meeting, set for the end of October, with economic commentators predicting the final $15 billion of bond purchasing to cease then. This final step is the precursor to interest rate rises occurring in the US, an expectation which has seen the US dollar rise sharply. Investors are also contemplating the effect this will have on markets as it has been an artificial support for equities since its introduction. Europe continues to be a problem child for investors with weak data continuing to come from the region. Germany in particular has taken a down turn with consumer confidence levels falling for a

World dairy prices showed signs of levelling off yesterday but there was little evidence of a dramatic turnaround for what has been a depressed market for most of this year. The GlobalDairyTrade price index gained 1.4 per cent at the fortnightly auction, the average winning price at the auction rising to US$2,640 a tonne after dropping by 7.3 per cent at the last auction. Wholemilk powder - New Zealand’s biggest export - sold for US$2503 ($3138) a tonne, up 3.1 per cent from the previous auction on October 2. Fonterra has said that wholemilk powder prices would need to reach US$3500 a tonne by March next year if its revised farmgate forecast of $5.30 a kg of milksolids is to be achieved.

Prices have fallen by close to 50 per cent since February due to a variety of factors, including a buildup of inventory in China, the effects of a ban by Russia on the importation of some food groups from some western countries, and increased production both in New Zealand and around the world. At yesterday’s auction, prices were a mixed bag, which skim milk powder prices falling by 3.6 per cent to US$2462 a tonne, reflecting increased world supply as European producers make more powder instead of cheese normally destined for Russia. While farmers will have taken some heart from the auction, a key issue for the future will be how competing producers around the world respond to lower prices, ANZ Bank said in a commentary.

Fletcher Building, New Zealand’s largest listed company, will close its Christchurch insulation factory, as it consolidates its Tasman Insulations operations in a “highly competitive market”. The proposal would see 29 Christchurch factory workers lose their jobs manufacturing the construction company’s Pink Batts insulation, while its Auckland factory will become a round the clock operation. - APNZ

■ SPACE PLANE

In brief New Google tablet

C loak and dagger mission What looks like a mini space shuttle, can fly itself for millions of miles and goes by the name X-37B? Must be a secret space weapon. Or something to rocket nextgeneration spy gear into orbit. Or maybe a decoy to keep China’s military guessing. The purpose of the US military’s space plane is classified, only fuelling speculation about why it has been circling Earth for nearly two years on this, the programme’s third mission. The plane is expected to land as soon as Wednesday at Vandenberg Air Force Base, about 130 miles northwest of Los Angeles. Here are some questions, and a few answers, about the X-37B: Q: OK, it’s all very cloak and dagger. But what do we know about it? A: The X-37B program has been an orphan of sorts, bouncing since its inception in 1999 between several federal agencies, NASA among them. It now resides under the Air Force’s Rapid Capabilities Office. There are two of these robotic planes, and the one due to land launched on the back of an Atlas V rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on December 11, 2012. It stands 9 1/2 feet tall and

Google has unveiled its latest tablet in an apparent effort to upstage Apple’s anticipated update of its trend-setting iPad.

Serious data breaches After an avalanche of data breaches, South Korea’s national identity card system has been raided so thoroughly by thieves that the government says it might have to issue new ID numbers to every citizen over 17 at a possible cost of billions of dollars. The admission is an embarrassment for a society that prides itself on its high-tech skills and has some of the fastest Internet access. The issue came to a head after 20 million people including the president, Park Geun-hye, were victims of a data theft at three credit card companies. - AP

is just over 29 feet long, with a wingspan under 15 feet. It weighs 11,000 pounds. And it has solar panels that unfurl to charge its batteries once in orbit. The US Military’s small, top-secret version of the space shuttle has been orbiting Earth for nearly two years. Q: And what don’t we know? A: Just about everything else. For starters, what it has been doing up in space. Speculation centres on the idea that its relatively small cargo bay was used to ferry sensors that can capture detailed images or communications on Earth - for example, to track

Iran’s nuclear programme or suspected terrorists. That makes sense to Harvard University astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell, who notes that any device could be returned, allowing scientists to build a better model based on the wear and tear it experienced from the radiation and debris outside the Earth’s atmosphere. Another theory, favoured by veteran space policy analyst John Pike, is that the programme is designed to “give the Chinese a brain cootie” trying to figure out what it’s for. Under that thinking, China would have to spend (and waste) time and resources trying to coun-

teract a range of possibilities. Q: This sounds like perfect fodder for Internet theories. What are some of them? A: It can grab another nation’s satellites. Or just sidle up and inspect them at close range. Or shadow China’s space lab. McDowell and Pike say none of these is likely. Q: What is the Air Force saying about this mission? A: Not much, other than that the craft will land soon (the exact timing depends on “technical and weather considerations”) and that crews at Vandenberg are well-trained for when it touches down. - AP

It is the first known case of internet addiction involving Google Glass, a fledgling technology which provides online access via a tiny screen attached to a spectacle frame, they said.

The naval serviceman had a history of drinking, depressive moods and relationship difficulties, according to the case study reported in the journal Addictive Behaviors.

“The patient had been wearing the Google Glass device each day for up to 18 hours for two months, removing the device during sleep and bathing,” the paper says. - AP

In brief Tennis All three winners from the opening round of Open A grade tennis have the opportunity to go two-fromtwo in tomorrow’s second round at the Ashburton Trust Tennis Centre. The opening round winners rotate opposition with a chance to open up an early divide between the top and bottom three teams. Competition leaders Allenton take on Tinwald-Hinds-Mayfield are up against Dorie/Fairton and Hampstead have Methven.

Softball Mid Canterbury softballers of all ages take to the diamond tomorrow for the official start of the season at Argyle Park. The T-ball and little league matches are on from 9am before the senior mixed grade competition from 1pm.

Salary cap breach Gold Coast have been fined $300,000 and hit with a suspended penalty of four competition points over a salary cap breach in regard to former playmaker Scott Prince. Prince left the Titans at the end of 2012 and the penalty was issued after an investigation by the NRL integrity unit which was instigated by the new management of the club. Four other clubs Manly, Newcastle, Sydney Roosters and the Wests Tigers have been issued with fines of more than $90,000 for less serious cap breaches. - AAP

Smeltz confident The A-league’s second-highest goal scorer says a move to Sydney FC has given him his best chance yet of winning a premiership. Shane Smeltz has played for numerous A-League clubs after debuting in the defunct National Soccer League in 1999 with the Brisbane Strikers. But, he has never held the Premier’s Plate. The 33-year-old New Zealand international thinks that’s about to change. “That’s definitely one of the reasons I came here to play for Sydney FC,” he said. “I think with this group of players and the coaching staff that we have, and the club environment, that we can certainly achieve that this year.” - AAP

But in a replay of the 18th hole that both parred in the final round, Kaymer birdied on a 10foot putt while Watson missed his birdie bid. - AFP

■ CRICKET

Matt’s a master blaster By Jonathan Leask

Jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

Allenton’s Matt Tait started the season in the best possible fashion when he scorched 121 off 43 balls in the first round of Twenty20 Mid Canterbury senior cricket last weekend. It was an opening day performance that few would scoff at and Tait was pretty pleased with his blistering batting. “I was just seeing it good and everything was coming out of the middle,” Tait said. “It was quite lucky though because being on an artificial wicket you can trust the bounce. “We were chasing a reasonably good total against a pretty good team so I thought I would have a go and if it comes off it comes off. “I was just going after everything.” He brought up his 50 in just 16 balls and reached 100 in 39 balls, finishing up 121 not out after 43 balls. In total he slammed 10 fours and 12 sixes. Tech’s Morgan Gallagher said they tried everything but just couldn’t stop Tait’s onslaught. The fastest Twenty20 century belongs to West Indian Chris Gayle, taking just 30 balls batting for the Royal Challenge Bangalore in the IPL in 2013 – making 175 not out off 66 balls hitting 17 sixes and 13 fours. Tait’s impressive effort wasn’t the fastest long time scorer Bob Bruhns had witnessed. Bruhns had the pleasure of seeing Matt Fine’s blazing 100

off 33 balls against West Coast in a two-day game back in December 2001. Tait doesn’t expect a repeat performance in tomorrow’s second round matches, understanding the hit and miss nature of Twenty20 – after he had only made 12 off 15 balls in Allenton’s first game. “It’s how I usually play, quite aggressive but just not that aggressive.” Tait will hope that his red

hot bat doesn’t cool down with the rest of the club season and a Hawke Cup campaign still to come, but if his opening day was anything to go by there’ll be plenty of runs on the board. The all-rounder’s great day with the bat didn’t swing with the ball, taking just 1/17 against Tech after getting “hit round a bit” in a 0/37 from four overs against Lauriston. Tomorrow the unbeaten Allenton take on a winless Meth-

ven who lost both their matches in the final over but also had a centurion, with Davey Maw notching 101 against Lauriston A. Allenton’s second match is against newcomers Lauriston B. The also unbeaten Coldstream come up against defending champions Tech and Lauriston A. Tech meet Methven in the second match of the day and Lauriston A will start the day against counterparts Lauriston B.

Black Caps likely to miss Williamson New Zealand may start the three-game ODI series against South Africa minus top class batsman Kane Williamson. The in-form Northern Districts player has a left wrist injury, picked up during the recent Champions League tournament in India. He will miss the New Zealand XI game against Ireland in Hamilton on Saturday and possibly the opening ODI in Mt Maunganui next Tuesday. At that point his injury will be assessed ahead of the remaining two matches against the South Africans. Another New Zealander who definitely won’t be in Mt Maunganui is Jesse Ryder, but the wayward and currently unwanted batsman got an endorsement from a surprise quarter yesterday.

South African skipper AB de Villiers, put on the spot on his opening press conference with a question he probably hadn’t given a thought to, admitted the Otago lefthander is a dangerous opponent. “It’s a difficult one. My personal feeling and most honest answer is he’s a very dangerous cricketer and you wouldn’t want to play against him because if he comes off he’s probably going to win you a game.” Asked if he would make the current South African squad, however, de Villiers, after a brief pause, said: “With the 15 we have now, no.” The South Africans arrived in the Mount yesterday ahead of the first men’s international to be played there. The visit is all about preparations for the World Cup. South

Africa have never won the tournament in six attempts - they did not play to the first four editions of the cup - and have had a series of mishaps along the way. A ludicrous rain recalculation in 1992 meant their target in a semi-final suddenly changed from 22 off 13 balls to 21 off one; and a madcap run out in the last over of the 1999 semifinal with the scores tied and balls to spare, handed Australia a pass to the final. De Villiers, who referred momentarily to playing “the All Blacks” instead of the Black Caps, is a heart on his sleeve type when discussing what World Cup success would mean to him. “I get really emotional talking about it because it’s really close to my heart,” he said.

“We’ve been doing a campaign back home called Protea Fire and the reaction from the public was immense. It would mean the world to us. “It’s the be all and end all. I want to win this World Cup, and then maybe dream of another after that.” If South Africa succeed it will be without a couple of recent giants of the world game. Replacing Graeme Smith and champion allrounder Jacques Kallis hasn’t been easy, de Villiers said. “They’re wonderful players and will always be remembered for what they achieved as players and leaders. Having said that, we are in a really good space, and have moved on from that. The guys who have come in have brought something different to the party.” - NZH

In brief

Perry up for semi clash By Jonathan Leask

Jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

Tim Perry has overcome a calf injury to take his place in the Tasman Makos front row to take on six-time defending champions Canterbury in the ITM Cup premiership semi-final at Nelson tomorrow. The Crusaders prop has missed the last two outings for Tasman with a calf strain, including the 38-10 win over Canterbury at AMI Stadium a fortnight ago as the ‘little brothers’ at the top of the South Island stepped out of the shadows with their maiden win in Christchurch. Last week Tasman couldn’t conjure up a late winner against Counties Manukau to end a run of four straight wins. The wheels had looked to have come off the Canterbury wagon, losing three straight games and being down 9-23 midway through the second half to table-topping Taranaki in New Plymouth, only to storm home to a 26-23 win last Sunday. However, it is hard to go past Canterbury’s playoff record, with six straight titles plenty of sway to have them $1.65 favourites at

the TAB with the hosts at $2.15. Tasman has made nine changes from the side that lost to Counties, with Perry and Quentin Macdonald back in the front row. Alex Ainley starts at lock, Pete Sam on the blindside and Shane Christie returns at seven. Jimmy Cowan is back at halfback, Marty Banks is back at 10 after coming off the bench last week as does the Chiefs new recruit, wing Bryce Heem. Kieron Fonotia returns to the midfield. Canterbury has made four changes to the starting side that beat Taranaki. With Colin Slade away with the All Blacks, the mercurial Richie Mo’unga slots back into fullback. Captain Willi Heinz returns from a knee injury to start at halfback ahead of Mitchell Drummond and Adam Whitelock starts in the midfield pushing Rob Thompson to the reserves. Props Daniel Lienert-Brown and Alex Hodgman have rotated with Lienert-Brown set to start at loosehead, with Perry up against Nepo Laulala.

felt more than they should. An open mind is being retained on his chances of coming right to play in Chicago. “We have got to name the

team on Monday,” said Hansen. “Being open and honest about it, he’ll be named on Monday. And then we will have to make some assessments about whether he is right to play and when he’s right to play. “We want to take him on the tour if he is right. He’s able to train fully but he just can’t take a knock on it - and I’m speaking on limited information because I’m over here and he’s over there - but the nerves haven’t settled down enough for him to respond well to a knock on it. “That’s what is affecting him.” How the next few weeks play out in regard to selection at first-five will be an endless source of interest. It is currently advantage Barrett. - HOS

Wallabies feel responsible for coach McKenzie By Laine CLark In a shot in the arm for Ewen McKenzie, vice-captain James Slipper says the Wallabies will fire for the besieged coach on Saturday night after feeling responsible for his current plight.

Slipper yesterday also hoped to clear the air on the Kurtley Beale saga, saying fellow team leaders Michael Hooper and Adam Ashley-Cooper’s support for the troubled star should not be confused with condoning his actions.

The Ray Coupland Stakes is the feature race on the Ashburton Racing Club’s programme tomorrow. The racing starts at 12.25pm, and it will be a great day out for the public. Free entry is being offered and it is a chance to take in the spectacle of racing whilst enjoying the company of friends. Matt Markham will be the birdcage presenter for the day.

World Cup-winning coach Jake White will act as technical adviser to Tonga during the Pacific side’s northern hemisphere rugby tour in November. White, who guided South Africa to the 2007 World Cup, quit as coach of the Sharks in a surprise move last month after taking the Durban-based club to the Super Rugby semi-finals. Tonga’s high-performance director Peter Harding said their rugby union decided to “have a lash” and ask the former Brumbies coach to join the tour - which includes matches against Georgia, Scotland and the USA - after hearing the 51-year-old was available. - AFP

Aaron Cruden is out of the dog box but he’s also out of the driving seat with Beauden Barrett endorsed now as the All Blacks leading No10. The immediate picture at first-five is one of the more lively and fascinating in the squad as Daniel Carter was forced yesterday to pull out of the Canterbury team to play in the ITM Cup semi-final and is not certain to travel to the US and Europe with the All Blacks. Head coach Steve Hansen confirmed that Carter will be named in the 33-man squad for the end of year tour on Monday, but that’s not a guarantee the 100-test veteran will actually get on the plane. Carter is not far from being passed fully fit and is in

Speculation is rife that McKenzie’s future may hinge on the Bledisloe Cup clash after a tumultuous fortnight capped by Beale facing a code of conduct hearing for lewd text messages about the ex-Wallabies staffer Di Patston.

Slipper said the players felt their poor on-field performances - namely their 51-20 loss in their last Test against New Zealand and surprise defeat to Argentina - had ensured McKenzie was feeling the heat. - AAP

One victory means very little to Mika Vukona when viewed within the bigger picture. Sure, the Breakers’ win in Perth was a huge boost to the team’s confidence, and perhaps it did provide the perfect start to the season ahead. But in terms of re-establishing the Breakers among the top tier in the Australian NBL? A solitary triumph did nothing to achieve that aim, no matter how impressively it arrived. That’s how deep a hole the Breakers dug themselves during their forgettable 11-18 season, when Vukona and his teammates lost both their championship crown and their formidable reputation. - APNZ

Top award shared Barcelona’s Luis Suarez received the Golden Boot award as Europe’s top scorer last season from Kenny Dalglish, who signed him for Liverpool in 2011, yesterday. The Uruguayan scored 31 times to help Liverpool into second in the Premier League. Now with Barcelona, the 27-year-old shared the award with Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo, who ended the campaign with the same tally. - AFP

Lampard defends Sterling Frank Lampard has come to the defence of Raheem Sterling, saying the Liverpool midfielder had been “brave” to admit to feeling tired. Sterling did not start England’s Euro 2016 qualifying win in Estonia on Sunday but came off the bench to earn the free-kick from which striker Wayne Rooney scored the only goal of a 1-0 victory. However, both the subsequent decision of England manager Roy Hodgson to reveal the fact Sterling had told him he was tired and the player’s admission of tiredness have both provoked much debate within English football. In particular, there have been plenty of people questioning both Sterling’s fitness and indeed his commitment, but Lampard said they were wrong to turn on a 19-year-old yet to develop in full physically. - AFP

YOUR STARS by Forecasters

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20) With the relationship challenges of the year behind you, there is a reminder from the love gods that it’s the spirit of romance that will and must prevail. TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21) With relationship building set to become a lot more important over the coming weeks, get things finalised on the work front first. GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 22) In just a week things are set to become very busy, very quickly and with little or no warning, opening the door to some of the busiest weeks of the year. CANCER (JUNE 22 – JULY 24) The Moon’s monthly visit to your income sector brings a reminder of a strong partnership between income, work and career forces. LEO (JULY 24 – AUG 23) You’ve reached an auspicious two day period where you’re not only able to give your heart, but the future, the past and unsaid words a voice. VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 23) The Sun’s financial foresight and Mercury’s smart head for money and 20/20 hindsight come together today to give you a real edge. LIBRA (SEP 23 – OCT 23) With the key to knowing where you’re going first understanding and appreciating where you’ve been, you’re able to accomplish both today. SCORPIO (OCT 23 – NOV 24) As you start lining up for what you want the next solar year to hold, it’s with a stunning sense of where you’ve been and where you’re going. SAGITTARIUS (NOV 24 – DEC 21) While serendipitous moments or encounters are likely, they’re just as likely to be new encounters as they are to be blasts from the past. CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 20) As the Sun and Mercury come together this not only brings clarity and intellectual savvy together, but foresight and hindsight. AQUARIUS (JAN 20 – FEB 19) It’s one thing to take ownership of a desire for adventure but it’s another to walk the talk. Today you have a chance to do just that. PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 21) This is a valuable chance to not only get your bearings, but to pick up some valuable and lucky clues and hunches.
