THE INDEPENDENT VOICE OF MID CANTERBURY

You decide Community to help solve problem of bulging school rolls

MYLES.H@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Mid Canterbury schools and their communities will be asked to help the Ministry of Education to deal with the bulging population in schools.

Their feedback could prompt significant change – or they might reinforce the need to work within the status quo.

A senior ministry adviser outlined the need for school and community engagement at the Mid Canterbury Principals’ Association meeting yesterday.

The meeting followed news that eight building projects worth about $2.7 million are in the pipeline or already underway in the district’s schools.

Eleven schools have already

imposed enrolment zones.

Principals approached by the Guardian after the meeting were reluctant to suggest what else could be done.

Association president Chris Murphy said some principals “had a level of scepticism” heading into the meeting, but left pleasantly surprised by the ministry’s approach.

“They are giving us the opportunity to sit down as a group to come up with our own solution and to be as innovative as we can, it’s not as if they are saying yes to what we come up with, but they are prepared to listen and be involved in the process,” he said.

A facilitator would be appointed to help the process,

which could eventually see the status quo remain or drastic changes to the way schools operate – depending on feedback from school communities, he said.

Hampstead School featured among urban Ashburton primary schools which have seen the biggest growth, with the school up 10 to 15 pupils (half a classroom) year on year.

Principal Peter Melrose said more research needed to be done before any ideas were bandied about.

He was impressed with the ministry’s move after the district was subject to a review over the past two decades seeing some rural schools either amalgamated or close down as

rolls declined. “Anything is on the table and it’s over to us to be proactive and, at this emerging stage, to generate ideas, talk with the community, board of trustees and PTA, but that will build upon itself as the ministry appoints its facilitators and convenes meetings.”

Ashburton Borough principal Sam Winterbourn said introducing more enrolment zones would be a negative move as the district grew, but options would be put forward in due course.

Ministry head of sector enablement and support Katrina Casey said “each school will know their own roll data and this information can assist them to come up with potential solutions”.

That personal touch

We’re more connected to our cellphones than we thought, scientists say. A new study

by US researchers has found that many of the personally unique bacteria found on our hands can also be found on our smartphones. The findings open up the possibility of smartphones being used to check if a person has picked up bugs in germ-heavy environments such as hospitals, rather than testing the person themselves. “In the foreseeable future we might have some sort of device in a hospital, where a nurse or a doctor at the end of the day can put their cellphone down and, in the matter of a few minutes, they’ll know whether there’s a good risk of taking dangerous pathogens out of the hospital home to their families.”

Welsh rugby player performs haka A Welsh rugby player has become an internet sensation by performing a words-and-action perfect haka on video before being swamped by impressed junior All Blacks. Wales Under-20 hooker Elliot Dee performed his solo rendition of the Maori war cry for New Zealand at a function during the IRB Junior World Cup. Dee, who plays for the Newport Gwent Dragons, is encouraged into the performance by team-mates and New Zealand under-20 players. In his red Welsh strip, he stuns the after-match crowd with his impeccable performance.

Back in time Without social media to fall back on police relied on newspapers to get the word out. This missing persons report was published on June 27, 1906.

Police enquiries have been made in the Alford Forest and Westerfield districts regarding the mysterious disappearance of Rosa Morris, aged 17, stepdaughter of Mr James Carr. She left her home on the morning of June 18 and all trace of her has been lost ... As it is nine days since the girl disappeared, some anxiety is felt as to her safety.

Birds of a feather flock together and when it comes to sex appeal, brighter is often better. A study, led by a New Zealand researcher, suggests a large proportion of birds have evolved to become more colourful over the past 56 million years. The most likely reason?

Sexiness. And because being brightly coloured often makes a bird more attractive to females, many bird species may become more eye-catching as their evolution continues. Massey University zoology lecturer Dr Daniel Thomas and colleagues from the US spent two years trawling through the data of close to 10,000 species of modern birds.

McCarthy’s crying stage Funnywoman Melissa McCarthy says she spent her 20s crying like an “idiot” because she didn’t think she was thin or pretty enough. The Bridesmaids star told People magazine she was often emotional as a young adult. “In my 20s I used to cry about why I wasn’t thinner or prettier,” she said.

“But I want to add that I also used to cry about things like: ‘I wish my hair would grow faster. I wish I had different shoes’.

It’s a decade of tears.” But even though she’s developed a thicker skin, McCarthy said some media coverage can still hurt her feelings.

In particular, she said headlines that portray her as a trailblazer for plussize women in Hollywood are out of line. “It’s like I’m managing to achieve all this success in spite of my affliction,” she said.

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COUNCIL

Councillors pass 7.2% rates rise

BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

There were no last-minute surprises yesterday when Ashburton District councillors voted the district a 7.2 per cent rate rise.

An additional 1 per cent in rates will be needed next year, but this will come from growth in the district as new properties are added to the council’s rating base.

The all-up 8.2 per cent increase is below the council’s self-imposed increase limit of 8.5 per cent.

In asking the council to sign off the rate rise, finance committee chair councillor Neil Brown said the figure was an acceptable one for the amount of work that was being done around the district.

Big ticket items pushing this year’s rates up were an additional investment by council of $1 million in roading and the $18 million that had been budgeted for the EA Networks Centre.

“This complex is something we all get, something we all need and to enjoy it, we have to pay for it,” he said.

The 1 per cent built into the budget for growth was conservative and this could well be exceeded with population growth.

That in turn would make facilities such as the sports com-

plex more affordable for residents, Mr Brown said.

Next year’s rates were struck after councillors listened to submissions over three days last month when ratepayers asked for spending to be cut in some areas and increased in others.

They deliberated, juggled figures and finally opted to include several requests for extra funding that pushed the rate increase up by a modest 0.18 per cent.

The council will receive $28.8 million in rates next year as part of a total revenue of $54.7 million.

While rates will rise an average of 7.2 per cent across the district, the burden won’t be evenly shared.

Ashburton and Hinds ratepayers will carry the bulk of the increase, with outer commercial properties in Ashburton looking at a 9.4 per cent rise while residential Ashburton, Hinds and commercial Ashburton rates will rise by 8.3 per cent.

Mayfield is the big winner with rates rising by just 1.9 per cent.

While there are no cost implications next year, the council will be consulting on several large projects, including changes to the way in which its kerbside rubbish collection is carried out and on a hydroslide project for the EA Networks Centre.

■ BALLANCE FARM ENVIRONMENT AWARDS

Slees take out national award

BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Ashburton made it two in a row last night when Ealing farmers Mark and Devon Slee won the title in the 2014 Ballance Farm Environment National Awards.

The Slees won the supreme title in the Canterbury awards in March and last night were chosen from 10 regional winners for the way in which they managed their complex farming systems.

Their business, Melrose Dairy Limited, is based on 1014ha at Ealing.

With a milking platform of 660ha, Melrose Dairy milks over 2600 cows on three dairy units.

The operation achieves outstanding production and is an industry leader in profitability.

Their win was announced at the New Zealand Farm Environment (NZFE) Trust’s National Sustainability Showcase in Christchurch and they were presented with the Gordon Stephenson trophy by Primary Industries Minister Nathan Guy. NZFE acting chair Simon Saunders said the couple would be great ambassadors for New Zealand agriculture.

“Mark and Devon possess the outstanding communication and leadership skills necessary to spread the sustainability message to both a national and international audience,” Mr Saunders said.

Like many dairy farms in the Ashburton District, the Slees’ Ealing 365 hectare property grew out of a family sheep farm.

The change began in 1987 and the holding has now expanded to take in two neighbouring farms and a dairy run-off block.

They employ a staff of 13 full-timers and two part-timers and are committed to replanting trees to replace those removed for centre pivot irrigators.

Their farming business has been built using cutting-edge technology to measure, monitor, model and interpret data to achieve the environmental, social and economic outcomes they are committed to.

Last year, Methven farmers Craige and Roz Mackenzie won the national title and Mr Sanders said they had done an excellent job of taking the sustainability message around New Zealand and overseas.

■ ASHBURTON BUSINESS ESTATE

Lease option to create interest

By Sue NewmaN

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Activity at Ashburton’s Business Estate is about to be fired up with a new subdivision and lease plan signed off by the Ashburton District Council.

The business park covers about 100 hectares and is a council project aimed at bringing new businesses to the district. It opened in March 2011 and was designed to allow site buyers to secure flexible size

lots and while there have been a number of lots sold, the council wanted to give businesses an additional option of leasing sites.

At yesterday’s council meeting councillor Darryl Nelson supported the new lease deal saying it was a way of encouraging people who might not have the cash to buy land, to set up their business at the park.

While leasing might not be the ideal way for council to recoup its investment in the busi-

ness park, it was another option to lift the number of businesses out there, councillor Neil Brown said.

“It’s better to sell but leasing will give us a return on our investment and it may help new businesses to set up if they can’t afford to buy land outright.”

The lease option didn’t appeal to all councillors, however, with Russell Ellis saying land sales should still be the number one goal.

“If we don’t do that it will be a long time until the council gets its money back on the subdivision,” he said.

There was steady inquiry from people wanting to buy sites in the park, council commercial manager John Rooney said, but the lease option was seen as a way of opening the door to more businesses.

“It’s the economic driver for people who are coming in that will determine both the size of

the sections and whether they are leased,” he said.

Leases would come with a right of renewal or a right to purchase and all leases would be let at a market rate.

Currently lots at the estate currently range from 10 hectares down to 0.5 hectares, but there had been demand for medium sized lots and it made sense for the council to subdivide an area to meet this market, Mr Rooney said.

■ NCEA REPORTS GET FAIL MARK

Employers call for a ‘work readiness certificate’ By myleS Hume

Myles.h@theguardian.co.nz

Mid Canterbury employers are weighing in on calls to have attendance, punctuality and attitude detailed on NCEA report cards, which they claim provide insufficient information when wanting to employ staff.

The Employers and Manufacturers Association this week said it wanted pupils leaving secondary school to be issued with a “work readiness certificate” – a proposal it has put forward in its 2014 Election Manifesto.

It wants NCEA reports to highlight pupils’ abilities in reading, writing, mathematics, on-time attendance and attitude, as businesses continue to complain too many teenagers are leaving school without “adequate work ready skills”.

“The present NCEA report issued to school leavers is simply not up to the job for helping employers choose amongst young job seekers,” EMA chief executive Kim Campbell said.

However, Mount Hutt College principal John Schreurs

said a lot of the information the EMA was calling for was readily available from pupils themView or purchase photos online selves.

“NCEA documents have reguardianonline.co.nz sults on them only, so if they want more information they should ask students to have their own school reports ready because contained in them are comments about how they work in school (including attendance),” he said.

Mr Schreurs said several pupils went into the trade sector from college, and employers could also ring referees and other contacts to ensure they had the right person.

■ WILLOWBY FIRE VICTIMS

Busy rebuilding shattered lives

By Myles HuMe

Myles.h@theguardian.co.nz

As the reality of the long road ahead begins to settle in following their devastating house fire, the McLaren family has been overwhelmed by the community response.

Four days after the blaze the family narrowly escaped from in their Willowby home on Monday night, Jayne and Peter McLaren and their three young children have found refuge at a relative’s home as they begin to work through insurance claims, purchase new belongings and seek a temporary home.

The family has been bombarded with offers of clothes, food and other essentials “left, right and centre”, and are heartened by the community support, but Mr McLaren in-

sists they are coping well.

The family have received offers of places to stay, as they seek a temporary home in the Willowby/Eiffleton area so the children remain close to Longbeach School.

Mr McLaren said in a week the family should know the fate of their home of eight years after it was gutted by the fire caused by a faulty heat transfer unit in the hallway roof cavity.

“The plan is to get the ball rolling and get something started, we are working with the insurance company to see what the go is and we are waiting for a decision whether we are going to rebuild or pull it down.”

Mr McLaren wants to rebuild on the property where he manages a 50 hectare cropping

block and where his three children have been raised.

“After the fire my wife doesn’t want to go in there anymore, the shock is wearing off and reality is setting in, but we will have to wait on the insurance company’s decision.”

Ashburton fire risk management officer Murray Cairns said the brand of the heat transfer unit remained unknown, but said people needed to check their systems to ensure they were not Weiss models FV653, FV 602 and FV 603 manufactured between 2007 and 2009 which were recalled recently after some were found to have overheated and caused fires.

Mr Cairns said many Ashburton households had Weiss units.

■ MID CANTERBURY SCHOOLS’ HOLIDAYS

Mid-term family holidays cause problems for schools, pupils

By Myles HuMe

Myles.h@theguardian.co.nz

More Mid Canterbury pupils are missing school than ever before as they go on mid-term family holidays, principals say.

The district’s rural schools say it is at its worst during June, as dairy farmers enter a quiet period and head away on overseas trips when air fares and accommodation prices are low.

The issue was brought to light recently by Mount Hutt College principal John Schreurs who noted in his newsletter pupils had a responsibility to catch up with work when they returned or complete assignments on holiday.

“I think it’s happening more often, it’s the parent’s choice and sometimes it comes down to the nature of the way work is now, it’s harder to get time off when you want, so sometimes you will have to go when it allows,” he said.

Statistics from a recent survey found almost one in five Kiwi families organise overseas trips during school time.

The absence is deemed explained but un-

justified. Mr Schreurs said absenteeism continues to “trickle in” when it came to family holidays, while for Mt SomersSpringburn School principal Brent Gray it was peaking.

“For us it seems to reflect what’s happening in the dairy sector, so if anyone is taking family holidays it’s when they are drying off and the cows are off the farm ... we haven’t got any off this week but in the last two weeks we have had two or three families away,” he said.

Both principals agreed it was not ideal and pupils risked falling behind, especially when it came to NCEA, but there was little schools could do to prevent it.

Mr Schreurs said the amount of work given to pupils for their holiday varied depending on subjects, but work was becoming more accessible as it went online and pupils learned valuable experiences in foreign countries.

A Flight Centre Ashburton spokesperson said bookings were as normal, but there had been an influx in rural residents looking to go overseas.

Hospital chaplain stabbed A hospital chaplain has been stabbed after telling a man attempting to rob him “you can’t take God’s money”.

New Plymouth Police Sergeant Royston Betteridge said the attack occurred about 8.40am yesterday morning at Taranaki Base Hospital.

“At about 8.40am this morning the chaplain was in his office in the hospi-

tal chapel. He was approached by a male holding a Stanley or craft knife who demanded the offerings from the collection boxes,” Mr Betteridge said.

The chaplain suffered a couple of minor nicks to his face and also to his arm.

The man also used another blunt weapon to attack the chaplain, Mr Betteridge said.

■ ANZAC DAY POPPIES

Poppy making returns to NZ

By Toni Williams & aPnZ Toni.w@Theguardian.co.nz

Ashburton’s Returned Services’ Association members are supporting the return of the Poppy Day poppies contract to New Zealand.

It was announced yesterday that the poppies would again be made in Christchurch.

The poppies were the fundraising tool used in the RSA’s annual poppy appeal.

Ashburton RSA welfare officer Jan Andrew said Ashburton had continued to support New Zealand made poppies once the decision to take their manufacture off-shore was made in 2010.

At the time, there was widespread controversy over the decision as they had been made in New Zealand since 1931.

It was fuelled further when Chinese-made poppies made their first appearance in 2012.

The RSA national office yesterday announced that a tender

by Christchurch RSA to make the poppies had been accepted.

Their tender would allow more money from each poppy donation to be raised.

It went to the support of veterans, and ex-servicemen and women in need.

New Zealand RSA chief executive David Moger said a new tender process was launched

in February after the previous contract came to a close.

“We’re delighted to be partnering once again with Christchurch RSA. Not only did they put forward the most competitive proposal enabling more funds to go towards the support of veterans, but in doing so, they’ve brought the production of poppies back to New Zealand.”

The return of the poppy contract to New Zealand would see poppies worn by Kiwis on the centenary of Gallipoli in 2015 and throughout the centenary of World War One made in New Zealand.

The poppies would be made

THE FACTS ■ ■ ■

Poppy Day has been raising funds for the RSA’s support services since 1922.

In 2013 one million poppies were distributed nationwide.

Poppy donations are used for the support of all veterans, ex-servicemen and women and their dependants, whether or not they’re members of an RSA.

Expo to show you how to get back to basics

Ashburton organisers of tomorrow’s Back to Basics natural savvy living expo have been preparing the site in preparation for the inaugural event.

It will be held at the New Life Church premises in Tinwald.

There are 80 exhibitors booked, all keen to share their techniques and traditional methods of living with members of the public.

Site holders include people with methods on how to grow food, use in-season foods, preserving, home remedies, budget advice, home-made games, sewing, knitting, DIY cleaners, and emergency preparation.

But there was much more.

Organisers Julia Crosson and Katie Esler wanted the methods used to be as natural and as do-it-yourself as possible.

They have a dedicated Facebook page.

They likened the event to an “interactive You Tube” where people could ask site holders questions and take away infor-

In brief Marj bounces back Ashburton octogenarian Marj Greenaway has a new bounce in her step following recent surgery.

The 82-year-old was near breaking point when she featured in the Guardian back in February. She was in constant pain and in need of stenosis surgery on her lower back. At the time she felt her age had stopped her waiting list progress. However, Mrs Greenaway reported yesterday her surgery had taken place. After months of restricted movement, Mrs Greenaway was “up and going” and on the road to recovery.

Grateful for the community support she had received, Mrs Greenaway was again behind the wheel and enjoying her continued independence.

Motorcyclist arrested A Hamilton man who fell off a motorbike while fleeing police has been arrested. Police said the motorcyclist fled from police in the eastern area of Hamilton City at about 7pm last night, but he failed to negotiate a corner in the area and fell off the bike. He has suffered no injuries as a result of the fall. Hamilton police said he will be facing a number of charges, with further inquiries continuing into the ownership of the motor cycle.

Sally Ridge’s appeal against a High Court decision has stumbled after she failed to pay $5880 as security for costs. Ridge lost her case claiming half of former partner Adam Parore’s Small Business Accounting (SBA) company and unpaid dividends. In April she was ordered to pay costs of $100,000 to Parore. Ridge lodged an appeal in March, and was required to pay security for costs of $5880 by June 12. The money was not paid, and Ridge applied to the court for a review of the decision requiring security to be paid, or, failing that, for an extension of time to pay.

A Court of Appeal decision released yesterday said Ridge’s counsel submitted that she had no means to pay the security or appeal filing fee. Parore’s lawyer pointed out Ridge had not provided any evidence to show she was broke, and Justice John Wild agreed.

■ EA NETWORKS CAMPAIGN

Power lines and trees a bad mix

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Trees and power lines are a mix that EA Networks is going out of its way to discourage.

It has joined forces with other rural lines companies to come up with a tree trimming campaign that goes beyond what is required within the national guidelines.

And that could see many rural land owners receiving cut or trim notices in the mail, says the company’s commercial manager Jeremy Adamson.

“Trees on lines are a significant problem for us and they’re the cause of a lot of our rural faults. We’re doing everything we can to ensure we don’t have faults in the network and last year’s September wind storm emphasised we need to go beyond the regulations,” he said.

For property owners that means not just keeping trees clear of lines, it also means ensuring trees are not growing within a ‘fall zone’ that could see them cross lines if they’re blown over.

The national regulations around the space required between trees and lines were EA Networks fall back position; in areas such as the Ashburton District with significant plantings and periods of high winds, stronger measures were needed, Mr Adamson said.

“We don’t want our customers suffering outages and they have a part to play in ensuring continued supply by being careful with their trees

and plantings and by looking where the fall lines of existing trees would be.”

He said that EA Networks wasn’t taking a big stick approach to the problem and preferred to work with farmers to ensure compliance.

However, if farmers didn’t clear offending trees, the company would clear them and send farmers the bill.

Unfortunately, while it could issue notices to property owners with trees encroaching the growth limit zone on roa-sides, there were no controls over what people did on their own properties in relation to power lines and trees, he said.

“We do emphasise to them that it’s in their best interests to keep their lines clear because when there’s a power outage, restoring the network always takes priority over an individual.”

While there was a fine regime of up to $10,000 an offence with an additional $500 for each day the offence continued, EA Networks preferred to adopt a proactive rather than a punitive approach to line clearance, Mr Adamson said.

Undergrounding of rural lines was one option to protect the network, but this was far more expensive than tree removal or trimming, he said.

A government scheme in the 1960s subsidised farmers to plant farm shelter but many of those trees were part of shelter belts that had been removed to allow efficient use of centre pivot irrigations.

■ BOWEL CANCER AWARENESS

Month-long campaign

By ToNi williamS

toni.w@theguardian.co.nz

A giant inflatable colon in downtown Ashburton and an online auction are just two of the events being run by Beat Bowel Cancer Aotearoa as part of their month-long awareness campaign about the deadly disease.

The Trade Me auction called The Unique Kiwi Experiences Auction goes live tomorrow and has some unusual experiences on offer.

They include a wine tasting experience with actor Sam Neill at his Two Paddocks Vineyard, a one-on-one session with Dr Libby and a day on the set of Shortland Street hosted by two of the television show’s stars.

There was even a private colonoscopy with the sur-

geon flying you over scenic Auckland the following day.

Organisation members hoped to draw interest in the auction to raise awareness about bowel cancer.

Beat Bowel Cancer Aotearoa was run by people affected by bowel cancer and committed to improving bowel cancer awareness and outcomes for people with the disease. It started in 2010.

As part of the campaign, Beat Bowel Cancer Aotearoa members will also have an inflatable colon set up in downtown Ashburton today.

People can walk through the disease riddled inflatable and get information about bowel cancer.

It will be at the Chessboard on East Street between 10am and 3pm.

■ CHRISTCHURCH FATALITY

Motorcyclist dies in chase

By Kurt Bayer The motorcylist killed while fleeing police in Christchurch yesterday has left behind a young son.

The incident began about midday when an unmarked police car was travelling away from New Brighton on Hawke St. Darren Lee Wilson, 26, rode past the police car at speed and on seeing the car accelerated towards Marine Parade.

The two officers then saw him travel through a stop sign

at speed, police said.

They made a U-turn and activated their lights and siren and had just reached the intersection with Marine Parade when they saw the motorcyclist, about 150-250m further down the road, crash into a vehicle travelling in the same direction but turning right into a carpark.

The red Nissan, with two elderly occupants who received minor injuries, had indicated to turn right into the carpark of New Brighton Surf Lifesaving Club.

As they were turning in, Mr Wilson hit their vehicle and was thrown some 10m, police said.

Mr Wilson died at the scene.

Police were speaking to witnesses and investigating the cause of the crash as well as carrying out a review of the actions of the police officers involved.

“On the face of the information before me at the moment, I am satisfied where we are at the moment but we need a lot more information to come forward,” said Superintendent

Andy McGregor at the scene.

It was not yet known how fast he was going, but Mr McGregor said witnesses said he was “travelling very quickly”.

“The fact is this person was speeding, breaking the law. If the rider had actually stopped he’d be alive today,” he said.

“We are speaking to a lot of witnesses at the moment to ascertain what exactly happened.”

The police officers involved are “very upset and shaken up”.

In brief House sells for $10,500 A Christchurch couple’s red-zoned house has sold for $10,500 at auction last night. Michael and Phyllis Thom sold the remains of their New Brighton property at an auction that attracted eight bidders and plenty more wellwishers who also donated over $5000 to the couple. Realtor Tristan Harcourt said the couple were “very happy”. He said the generosity of people had touched the Thoms, whose house wasn’t insured at the time the earthquake hit. “Compared to what they’ve lost it’s not a lot.”

El Nino ‘more likely’ The chances of an El Nino playing with our weather this summer have become more likely, according to a just-released report from the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO). But while the probability of an El Nino becoming established between October to December have risen to 75 to 80 per cent, the system is expected to be weaker than earlier predicted. In New Zealand, the ocean-driven system typically brings cooler, wetter conditions, bringing higher rainfall to regions that are normally wet, and often drought to areas that are usually dry.

New den celebrations all fun and games Formalities did not last long, as it was all fun and games for the troops on Wednesday night.

Mania-o-Roto scouts cel-

ebrated their new den with a fish and chip dinner followed by speakers Philip Crozier and Barry Marett.

The Venturers then revealed

a relay game they had kept secret for so long. The Venturers organised the games as part of their Quality Unit Award.

Venturer Unit leader Bren-

■ MID CANTERBURY SCHOOLS’ MUSIC FESTIVAL

A delightful evening of smiles and songs Review of Heartland Bank Schools Music Festival, Thursday, June 26, 2014.

The third and final night of the Heartland Bank Schools’ Music Festival was a delightful evening of smiles and songs.

The Massed Choir conductors Fiona Maw, Anna Lischner and Bryony Digby each took the choir through a bracket of three songs.

Highlights here were the quirky Bat Fly, the creative adaptation of Greedy Cat and the powerful rendition of I’m A Song (Sing Me) to close the evening.

Special guests were the Ash-

burton College Phoenix Rising under the guidance of Angie Cresswell and accompanied by Stephen Diedricks. They treated us to two songs with excellent harmony, Lift Thine Eyes and Autumn Night and showed our young performers what they can aspire to.

The Special Choir conducted

by Elaine Vallender was indeed very special. Last night’s two soloists were Ocean Waitokia in Can You Feel the Love Tonight and Charlotte Mulder in Count On Me. Their final item Kids! included the playing of Boomwackers to accompany the song.

The level of maturity and

confidence displayed by all these young singers produced a high quality performance that was a delight to hear.

Individual school items are always a highlight.

Last evening we were treated to Fairton with two lively and happy songs Bad Hair Day and Life Is Fun. Longbeach with some welltimed actions, performed Brave and I Just Can’t Wait To Be King.

Allenton had fun with their choreography of The Witch Doctor after singing in parts, I’ll Be There.

St Joseph’s entertained us with True Colours and then

livened up the show with snappy actions as they sang Happy.

Ashburton Intermediate beautifully sang There’s A Hero and I’m A Hero with strong harmonies all the way through.

This year’s festival has been well supported, giving these young performers the encouragement and support they deserve.

A big thank-you also, to all the conductors and musical directors of each school.

Congratulations to everyone involved in organising and running this event it was a delight to be there.

A controversial law change to allow companies to remove “windblown” timber from conservation land has divided the Labour Party and caused bitter dispute within Parliament. Two Labour electorate MPs crossed the floor and voted against their party by supporting National’s plan to open up large tracts of the West Coast of the South Island for logging, but not before making heated attacks on Government.

Labour’s West Coast MP Damien O’Connor and Te Tai Tonga MP Rino Tirikatene went against their party by voting in support, but had sought amendments to make sure profits stayed within the immediate community.

Glenorchy shooting Emergency services rushed to reports of a firearms incident in Glenorchy yesterday. Inspector Alan Weston of Southern Police communications said police attended a rural location on the northern end of Lake Wakatipu, Otago. “Ambulance have informed us there’s been an incident where a person has been injured by a firearm.”

Objectionable images A former professional at an Auckland firm is battling to keep his name secret after being sentenced for possessing and exporting objectionable images of children. The man’s lawyer Guyon Foley applied for a permanent name suppression order, but this was turned down yesterday by Judge Eddie Paul in the Auckland District Court. “The public are entitled to know what this man has been doing,” the judge said when he sentenced the man to 10 months’ home detention. However, Mr Foley said his client wished to challenge the judge’s decision and Judge Paul gave him until Monday afternoon to file an appeal or the suppression would lapse. - APNZ

■ ST DAVID’S HOLIDAY PROGRAMME

Lack of helpers forces axing More than 30 Ashburton youngsters will be left to find an alternative holiday programme during the July break with news St David’s Church won’t be holding its programme.

However, its co-ordinator Isobel Gentle ensures it will make a return in the October school holidays, as a series of unforeseen events and a lack of volunteers forced the programme to shut down for the approaching holiday break starting July 7.

Ms Gentle said it was disappointing it won’t be held for the 30 to 40 chil-

dren who turned out for the programme which usually runs in the second week of the two-week holiday period.

She was confident enough volunteers would come forward for the next holiday programme, and urged people who worked well with children and did not have a criminal record, to come forward.

Alternative holiday programmes in Ashburton include Oscar programmes at Ashburton Borough and Allenton schools, SKIDS at Hampstead School and Sport Canterbury’s events, among others.

■ SHOW REVIEW

Ma Bell and friends pop in Post earthquakes, the larger Christchurch community lost several venues previously utilised for concerts and theatre productions.

Enter Isabella Miller Bell (aka ‘Ma Bell’), whose initiative brought the arts and music back to the city and surrounds, albeit in a different form.

The birth of the Canterbury Pop Up Concert Series has seen several cabaret type events held over the past two years, with popularity growing rapidly.

Support from the Ashburton Creative Community Fund enabled the Pop Up Concert Series to venture south to our town on Saturday evening, bringing the vibrant, fun loving ‘Ma Bell’ and her small entourage of international quality musician friends to entertain the disappointingly small but very appreciative audience.

The Ashburton Trust Event Centre Woodham foyer was the ideal setting for an evening of Blues Jazz and Celtic Soul fusion, entitled Cabaret La Vie. Ma Bell hails from Scotland and her sombre song Post War Blues told us something of her early life, yet at the same time, covertly announced we were in for an evening of musical delight.

Acoustic guitarist, singer/composer James Wilkinson, wove magic with his fingers as he shared his original works.

I cannot recall ever witnessing such intricate guitar playing … fingers strumming, plucking, tapping, at sometimes

HWMP55-918 5.5KG TOP LOADING WASHING MACHINE

unimaginable speed.

Audience appreciation was to the fore at the conclusion of the bracket as it was a while later when James combined with Jon Maxim Hooker (Blues and fingerstyle guitarist/composer) to perform Eleanor Rigby, made famous by The Beatles.

Radius, a duo of very talented singers/ composers brought to us, music born very close to home. Harry Harrison and Justine Snelgrove had travelled to Barrytown on the West Coast and during both outward and homebound drives, composed music befitting their weekend.

When asked by an audience member, how they remembered the score, they replied that mobile phones and the like are wonderful tools for recording as they tap out rhythms on the car steering wheel!

Harry’s resonator guitar, crafted from brass and copper was a delight to both view and listen to.

Bringing the evening to a close, Ma Bell gave an emotionally charged rendition of St Louis Blues and bade us goodnight, but she wasn’t to be let off lightly.

Much enthusiastic applause encouraged her to return to the stage and have us sing along with all performers, Goodnight Irene.

Goodnight Ma Bell – please return and we promise to bring more of our friends next time.

You deserve a much bigger audience.

And yet, still we speed Stu Oldham

t beggars belief that police would need to stop speeding vehicles, in thick fog, on a stretch of road where three people were recently killed.

One would be forgiven for thinking that the tragic incident at the intersection of Thompsons Track and Somerton Road this month would have encouraged drivers to take it easy.

No matter what caused the crash that killed Abigail Hone, and Sally and Ella Summerfield, one would easily expect that the potential for danger would be fresh in people’s minds.

But then, if one did, one would be disappointed by news police recently caught people driving at speeds of up to 140km/h in fog that reduced visibility to just 50 metres.

One of the police officers that issued the tickets had witnessed the fatal crash. Both of the officers were involved in the aftermath.

They and police bosses know that Thompsons Track is a stretch of road on which drivers push the limits. It is treated as our very own rural, highspeed bypass.

This is illustrated by police statistics that show Thompsons Track is, outside of the state highways, the place they issue the most speeding tickets in Mid Canterbury.

Police have issued about 900 tickets there since January 2012.

That is equivalent to about one ticket a day.

That does not sound much but it suggests a pattern of behaviour that, no matter the publicity, has proven difficult to change.

For some, our long, wide and straight roads encourage speed.

That they believe they know the road, so they know best how to drive it only adds to the speeding statistics.

Of course, not all speeding drivers are involved in crashes and not all speeding drivers keep speeding when the road and weather conditions change.

Police have already warned that driver inattention is a factor in too many of our district’s road crashes. “Careful” speeding will not counter that.

YOUR VIEW Bridge vote Councillor (Don) McLeod says he would welcome an independent inquiry (into circumstances affecting the recent bridge vote) (Ashburton Guardian, June 6). I’m sure he would because he would come out clean.

He has done everything by the book, but still altered the outcome of the vote by his action.

If Mr McLeod had owned up at the start when the media were talking about the “Anonymous Emailer” then there wouldn’t have been such an air of suspicion over (seeking clarification to a possible conflict of interest). In my opinion, Mr McLeod (should have known) only too well that removing Alasdair Urquhart from the bridge vote was enough to change the vote

CRUMB

LETTERS result. Mr McLeod also wants people to talk to him who have concerns about this issue, however it must be remembered that he never bothered to talk to Alasdair Urquhart before sending off his email based on incorrect information.

Noms de plume Hi editor. Just wondering what forum you want your “letters to the editor” to be.

I can understand that pointed letters of length with unsubstantiated text under a nom de plume is something that needs to be policed. However, you now run the risk of printing an exclusive “do-gooders” column.

I am all for putting your

money where your mouth is.

However, some people with valid reasons may want some anonymity.

I would have thought that it was your job to approve what is printed and what is not.

Morning coffee and reading the local rag may now take even less time thanks to the fun police. Bring back X. Dean Harrison Editor responds: The Guardian still accepts noms de plume but writers need to say what their valid reasons for anonymity are.

It helps me to decide how to publish and it is standard at most of New Zealand’s daily newspapers.

I am still waiting for my first letter from X.

When I was a kid, it wouldn’t have been the school I was taking to court over haircuts, it would have been my mother who used to cut my hair and send me to school with a “do” that looked very much the same as an open-faced motorbike helmet.

Here’s this week’s cutting edge lingo to drop around your place to annoy any young people in ear shot.

Football

I would like to thank footballer Luis Suarez from Uruguay who backed up my thoughts on football going downhill rapidly by biting Italy defender Giorgio Chiellini in their pool match on Wednesday morning (NZ time).

There is no doubt the 27-year-old is one of the most talented footballers in the world and the most well paid, his salary alone from Liverpool last season was £10 million.

This will be his third biting charge and surely three strikes and you’re out, he should be banned from the game.

I’m not the only one who wants to thank Suarez for biting Chiellini. One Norwegian man won $NZ6500 thanks to Suarez’s habit of sinking his teeth into his opponents.

According to Norway’s largest newspaper, Thomas Syversen took a chance on the 175-to1 odds that Suarez would bite someone during the match.

I would also like to thank psychologist Nigel Latta for backing up my thoughts on

■ MALAYSIA

New search area for MH370

By Andrew drummond More than 100 days after a Malaysia Airlines jet went missing search authorities admit they have been looking in the wrong place.

Based on new satellite projections, the Australian-led search operation will now focus on a 60,000 square kilometre area further south in the Indian Ocean.

It has also been confirmed for the first time that the Boeing 777, carrying 239 people, was set to autopilot several hours before its demise into desolate and unmapped waters.

“Certainly for its path across the Indian Ocean we are confident that the aircraft was operating on autopilot until it ran out of fuel,” Australian Transport Safety Bureau boss Martin Dolan said.

After taking off from Kuala Lumpur on March 8 the aircraft diverted from tracking toward its Beijing destination.

While Australian authorities have not tried to determine when the fateful path was set, Mr Nolan said it diverted west of Sumatra and then travelled in a straight line, suggesting autopilot was engaged.

The new search area for the plane, which is about 1800km from the West Australian coast, has been the subject of an aerial search previously, but efforts will now head below the waves,

combing the ocean floor which is some five kilometres deep in parts.

It will take about three months to map the ocean floor.

Australia will call for tenders to conduct the underwater search, which will begin in August and will be a long and painstaking process, Australian Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss said.

“We could be fortunate and find it in the first hour or the first day, but it could take another 12 months,” he told reporters in Canberra yesterday.

Defending fruitless previous search efforts, Mr Truss said little is known of much of the southern Indian Ocean.

“The search area has at all times been based on the best information analysis available,” he said.

International experts have worked to outline the latest area of interest, which Mr Truss said is the “most likely place where the aircraft is resting”.

“We owe it to the passengers and the crew and everyone who is associated with MH370 to bring this mystery to a conclusion,” he said.

Six Australians were among those on board MH370.

Australia remains dedicated to solving “this greatest aviation mystery”, but Mr Truss could not say how much the search efforts to date have cost.

Abu Qatada has been acquitted of plotting a terror attack on the American school in Amman for lack of evidence but the radical cleric faces other terrorism charges and will remain in prison. “The court did not find evidence to support charges against Omar Mahmud Mohammed Otman (Abu Qatada) that he conspired in late 1998 to carry out a terror attack on the American school in Amman,” judge Ahmad Qatarneh said yesterday in a ruling. “Based on that, the court unanimously declares the innocence of Omar Mahmud Mohammed Otman for lack evidence.”

Disgraced British radio and TV presenter Jimmy Savile subjected patients in hospitals across the country to “truly awful” sexual abuse for more than four decades, a series of chilling reports have revealed. Savile’s victims at Leeds General Infirmary ranged from five years old to pensioners and included men, women, boys and girls, an investigation into abuse claims at one of 28 National Health Service hospitals has found.

Investigators discovered members of staff at the LGI failed to pass on complaints of abuse to senior managers, who could have acted to stop it happening.

Savile abuse ‘truly awful’

Russia must prove “in the next hours” that it is working to help disarm separatist groups in restive eastern Ukraine, US Secretary of State John Kerry says, following a meeting with his French counterpart.

“We are in full agreement that it is critical for Russia to show in the next hours, literally, that they’re moving to help disarm the separatists, to encourage them to disarm, to call on them to lay down their weapons and to begin to become part of a legitimate process,” he told reporters yesterday in Paris.

US and EU leaders have heaped pressure on Russian president Vladimir Putin to help his Western-backed counterpart in Ukraine end a separatist insurgency, as the clock ticks down on a shaky truce.

US President Barack Obama warned late Wednesday that addi-

tional sanctions would be in store if Russia does not move swiftly to reduce tensions in eastern Ukraine.

Kerry said US and EU leaders agreed that sanctions needed to be ready.

“But our preference is not to have to be into a sanctions mode.

“We would like to see a cooperative effort between the United States, Europe and Russia and the Ukrainians.”

French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, meanwhile, hinted at an easing of the situation in Ukraine.

“There is some sort of - but we must be very careful - of a deescalation,” he said, adding a conversation had taken place between the French, German, Russian and Ukrainian leaders. “There are commitments which have been taken and we hope that it will be implemented today, and in the coming days.”

News Corporation executive chairman Rupert Murdoch has arrived in London, amid reports that police want to question him in the wake of the phonehacking trial. The 83-year-old US-based media mogul flew into London, after the high-profile trial concluded with the conviction of Andy Coulson, one of his former British newspaper editors. A spokesman for Australian-born Murdoch declined to comment on his plans, but the Guardian newspaper reported this week that British police want to question him over allegations of criminality at his British newspapers.

Park accepted his resignation, but Chung was asked to remain in the job until a successor was found - a task that turned into an embarrassing debacle for the president.

Port plans expansion

Port CEO Mark Cairns

“New Zealand doesn’t have a big ship-capable port and now is the right time for key players to work together to build a capability within New Zealand to receive these large vessels with all the efficiencies they will bring to New Zealand,” Kotahi chief executive Chris Greenough said in a statement.

Kotahi has committed to provide up to 1.8m TEU export cargo containers to the Port of Tauranga over the next 10 years, and has committed export cargo to TCTS from the same date.

Port of Tauranga chief executive Mark Cairns told a news conference yesterday that the 1.8m TEU volume commitment was worth $5 billion to 6b to the port over the 10-year contract period “so it’s very, very significant”.

He said there was $50m to $60m worth of dredging to do at the port, so yesterday’s arrangements had added certainty to support the project.

Maersk Line’s New Zealand managing director, Gerard Morrison, said it was a first for the company - the world’s biggest shipping line - had become involved in a contract of 10 years’ duration.

ON THE MARKETS

rough winter period last year and also execution issues over Christmas.

The NZX main board had two newcomers this week with both Serko and Gentrack debuting with mixed results.

Serko, an Auckland based tech company which develops corporate travel booking software, had an initial public offering (IPO) price of $1.10 and the stock rose 2.7 per cent upon listing.

The share price however, fell to 95 cents for the close of its first day trading, in a rough day for New Zealand tech and biotech stocks.

Gentrack, another software development firm, listed just a day later with an IPO price of $2.40. The share price rose 7.5 per cent immediately after listing and finished its first day trading at $2.49, up 3.75 per cent.

In other IPO news this week, Australian private equity firm Next Capital withdrew its IPO for Hirepool.

Other big news in New Zealand included an announcement from Port of Tauranga on Thursday saying it has entered

into a ten year alliance with freight and logistics management company Kotahi, owned by both Fonterra and Silver Fern Farms, and also with shipping line Maersk, which will result in sizable uplift to volumes.

It will also mean Port of Tauranga can realise a key long term goal of being a hub port for large ships into New Zealand.

This week has seen several high profile global economic data releases. Of particular interest were the flash, or preliminary, manufacturing Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) results from the world’s two largest economies, China and the US, for June. For China the index came in at 50.8, a seven month high, and up from 49.4 in May. A reading above 50 shows expansion in the sector.

This has given renewed confidence in the Chinese economy which had been waning earlier in the year. In the US the manufacturing PMI edged to a 4 year high of 57.5. This is yet another indication that the US economy has recovered from a tough first quarter.

Negative sentiments show effects arkets started the week on a high with the S&P500 closing at a record level again.

However, disruption came with geopolitical tensions rising in both Iraq and the Ukraine, causing the market to trade rather mixed over the week. This negative sentiment also impacted the performance of the NZX50 which has had a rough week, particularly the tech and retail sectors who were both key underperformers.

Kathmandu’s share price fell 11.5 per cent following the announcement on Tuesday that full year earnings were expected to come in below expectations.

The sales shortfall has been particularly significant in the last fortnight, which is the opening period of the company’s winter sales campaign, driven by the warmer weather which has impacted sales of KMD’s higher margin core winter gear.

This followed a profit warning from the Warehouse Group last week which is also being impacted by the warmer start to winter.

One apparel retailer to buck the trend was Hallenstein Glasson which said sales and margins are ahead of the same period last year. This should help to boost sentiment towards the company following a

But the liquidator of Capital + Merchant Finance yesterday announced it had reached an $18.5 million out-of-court settlement with the company’s former auditors.

The Port of Tauranga, shipping giant Maersk Line and Fonterra-backed logistics company Kotahi have signed 10-year contracts aimed at supporting the port’s plan to deepen its channel to handle bigger container ships by 2016.

The deal, which insiders said would prove far-reaching for the port and logistics sectors, will involve Kotahi - a joint venture between Fonterra and Silver Fern Farms - taking a small stake in the port and Maersk putting more containers through its terminals over the next decade.

Shares in NZX-listed Port of Tauranga rallied by 63c, or 4.4 per cent, to $15.00 on the back of the announcement.

Part of the deal involves Port of Tauranga issuing 2 million shares to Kotahi - representing

1.5 per cent of the company.

Kotahi’s rights to the shares, including dividends, are subject to Kotahi delivering on certain freight volume commitments, the parties said.

Kotahi has agreed to commit export traffic to Port of Tauranga subsidiary TCTS, which holds a 35 year lease over the 10ha of terminal operating area at PrimePort Timaru.

In exchange for the commitment, Kotahi will get a 49.9 per cent shareholding in TCTS. In addition, Kotahi has committed to provide up to 2.5 million TEU export cargo containers to Maersk Line for the next 10 years, also starting from August 1.

The deal gives Maersk certainty to plan for the introduction of 6500 TEU (twenty foot equivalent) container ships to New Zealand, the parties said in a statement.

■ GOOGLE’S FUTURE PLANS

15

In brief

Android hits billion mark Some one billion people are now using Android devices, Google said as the company kicked off its two-day developer conference in San Francisco.

But the online search leader’s effort to broaden its focus beyond smartphones and tablets was on full display as the company unveiled far-reaching plans to push further into the living room, the family car and the TV set.

As part of a nearly threehour opening presentation, Google gave more details about Android Wear, a version of the operating system customised for wearable gadgets such as smartwatches.

The company also introduced Android Auto, which has been tailored to work with cars. Android TV, meanwhile, is optimised for TV-watching, aided by a recommendation system and voice searches for things like Breaking Bad or Oscarnominated movies from 2002.

About 6000 developers, bloggers and journalists flocked to the event.

Following Google’s recent revelation that showed that just 30 per cent of its employees are women, the company touted that the number of women attending its conference grew to 20 per cent this year from eight per cent a year earlier.

“We were joking, that we’re at a tech conference and there is a line to the bathroom,” said developer Tricia Barton, referring to a common occurrence at tech events - long lines to the men’s bathrooms while the women’s facilities sit mostly empty.

Barton was one of some 1000 female I/O attendees that Google invited to networking dinners the night before the conference, at restaurants around San Francisco.

Thursday’s three-hour key-

Builder bots coming It’s already been demonstrated that a 3D printer can be used to build a house, but the problem is the printer needs to be bigger than the structure it’s creating. A team at the Institute for Advanced Architecture in Catalonia have developed Minibuilders: autonomous bots that divide up tasks to make the construction process cheaper and greener. The bots can work together to build structures of any size, and that don’t require support structures either. At the foundation level robots move in a track to squirt out material that hardens into the shell of the building. Then robots clamp on to the existing structure to build out more layers, frames for windows and doors, and ceilings. The developers have demonstrated the process as a proof of concept, but now it will need to be scaled up and applied.

note address was interrupted at several points by protesters who were quickly escorted out.

Google has been the subject of disapproval for its use of shuttle buses to ferry its employees from San Francisco to its Mountain View headquarters. The buses have become a symbol of the divide between Silicon Valley’s tech millionaires and those left out of the latest boom.

Nonetheless, Google loyalty was apparent among conference attendees, many of whom wore Google Glass, sported Google shirts and collected Android-themed freebies in between workshops, which range from the likes of “Large scale data processing in the Cloud” to “Polymer and the Web Components revolution.”

Google’s I/O event - a rally of sorts designed to get developers excited about creating apps and devices for Google’s ecosystem - comes at a time of transition for the company,

which makes most of its money from advertising thanks to its status as the world’s leader in online search.

The company is trying to adjust to an ongoing shift to smartphones and tablet computers from desktop and laptop PCs. Though mobile advertising is growing rapidly, advertising aimed at PC users still generates more money.

At the same time, Google is angling to stay at the forefront of innovation by taking gambles on new, sometimes unproven technologies that take years to pay off - if at all. Driverless cars, Google Glass, smartwatches and thinking thermostats are just some of its more far-off bets.

On the home front, Google’s Nest Labs - which makes network-connected thermostats and smoke detectors - announced earlier this week that it has created a program that allows outside developers, from tiny startups to large compa-

nies such as Whirlpool and Mercedes-Benz, to fashion software and “new experiences” for its products. Integration with Mercedes-Benz, for example, might mean that a car can notify a Nest thermostat when it’s getting close to home, so the device can have the home’s temperature adjusted to the driver’s liking before he or she arrives.

Nest’s founder, Tony Fadell, is an Apple veteran who helped design the iPod and the iPhone.

Google bought the company earlier this year for $3.2 billion.

Opening the Nest platform to outside developers will allow Google to move into the emerging market for connected, smart home devices.

Experts expect that this socalled “Internet of Things” phenomenon will change the way people use technology in much the same way that smartphones have changed life since the introduction of Apple’s iPhone seven years ago.

Smart glasses could help people with very limited vision.

Researchers at Oxford University are developing glasses that overlay images of nearby objects on the see-through lenses. The idea is to enhance any vision the wearer already has. The glasses include a camera that feeds data to a small processing unit and software that sends images back to the glasses.

The software interprets nearby surroundings and overlays shapes of items such as kerbs, tables and chairs, or groups of people on what the wearer can already see. Further development may include facial, object or text recognition, with audio supplied to an earpiece. This suggests interesting possibilities for specialised driving glasses. - NZH

Adding to subtract Various industries need materials that are light, stiff and strong. US scientists have created one such material through additive micromanufacturing processes. Their micro-architected metamaterials maintain a nearly constant stiffness per unit mass density, even at ultralow density. That could make them useful in parts and components for aircraft, automobiles and space vehicles. The lightweight materials can withstand a load of at least 160,000 times their own weight.

Aiming for the top The league champion Mid Canterbury women now take aim at the cup competition in Mainland football’s women’s division two.

The division is split into two pools with Mid Canterbury drawn in pool A and will meet rivals Christchurch United who handed them their only defeat of the season so far last weekend. However they start with FC Twenty11 in Ashburton on Sunday. Tomorrow the men’s sides are hoping for a good day after some slender weeks in the win department. In Division four Mid Canterbury Eastern are away to Universities while Methven are at home to Parklands United. The Mid Canterbury Masters are looking to break a three game losing skid away to Cashmere Technical. In 18th grade division two Mid Canterbury 18th host Coastal Spirit, the 16th side are also at home to Halswell United 16C in 16th grade division three while Mid Canterbury 15th are away to Coastal Spirit 15A.

King set for Glasgow Two members of Squash New Zealand’s eight-strong squad for the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Joelle King and Amanda Landers-Murphy, will contest the Wellington Open championships starting next Friday. King, ranked No4 female player in the world and No1 in New Zealand, would have been a hot favourite for the premier division women’s title but has decided to compete against the premier men instead. Her quality is illustrated by the fact she is expected to be among the top five seeds in a grade in which the experienced Palmerston North player Khasif Shuja will hold the number one seeding. Success at the Commonwealth Games would be nothing new for King. She combined with Jaclyn Hawkes to win gold in the women’s doubles in Delhi back in 2010 and also picked up a silver in the mixed doubles in partnership with Martin Knight. She also came fifth in the singles.

Young basketballers clean up

By Jonathan Leask

Jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

Mid Canterbury sides claimed a clean sweep of the Aoraki Secondary Schools’ Junior Basketball Championships in Timaru this week.

The Ashburton College boys went through the tournament unbeaten to be convincing winners on Tuesday.

After wins over Timaru Boys’ A 53-7 and B 51-10, Roncalli 34-27 and St Kevin’s 44-2, Gareth Hunt scored 20 points as College easily accounted for Waitaki Boys’ High School in their final game 43-16 to complete an unbeaten tournament.

Mount Hutt College edged out runners-up Opihi College 33-32 to win all five of their

matches to win in B grade.

On Wednesday the Ashburton College Girls went down in a shock 20-21 loss to eventual wooden-spooners St Kevin’s, but wins over Timaru Girls’ 2317, Roncalli 30-13 and Craighead 21-17 were enough to take out the A grade title.

The Mt Hutt College Girls’ completed a good two days for

the Mid Canterbury schools as they went unbeaten, including a 54-0 win over Mackenzie College and a 28-22 win over runners-up Waitaki Year 10, to win B grade.

The teams will now be full of confidence ahead of the South Island Secondary Schools Tournament in Dunedin at the end of August.

Promotion-relegation match gives Methven a lifeline

Mid Canterbury netball has made a slight but significant alteration to their promotionrelegation for the end of the second round tomorrow.

Instead of the bottom team automatically getting relegated from the premier grade at the end of the round tomorrow, there will now be a promotionrelegation game held next week between the bottom team in premier and the top team in senior A to see who goes up to premier.

“As it impacts on who starts in the premier competition next season, the committee felt that this was the fairest way to get the right team in the grade,” Mid Canterbury Netball president Karla Newlands said.

“When we first put out the new structure we knew there

would be teething problems in the first year.

“We consulted the clubs and the potentially affected teams and everyone agreed the promotion-relegation matches was the way to go and allowed us to make the change.”

The change hands Methven a lifeline as the 2013 premier runners-up look to avoid a major fall from grace.

Methven avoided automatic relegation in round one with a win over College B, but lost out to Collegiate last week to sit bottom of the premier grade heading into the final round.

Tomorrow they play a Hampstead side that won 40-16 in the first round, Collegiate come up against College A and Celtic face United.

A loss tomorrow for Methven, who are without captain Sally

Williams for a second week, would have been an automatic relegation to Senior A for the final round, and for round one next year, but the change provides them a chance to earn their place in a mid-week promotion-relegation match.

After their relegation College B were on track towards a return to premier until a 2829 loss to Rakaia last week has thrown the promotion race wide open, with both teams having lost a match. If both sides win tomorrow it will go down to goal ratio, where College B currently has the advantage.

Whomever it is, the promotion-relegation match will determine their fate for the third round, and what grade they will play in next year when netball heads indoors at the EA Networks Centre.

In brief

■ RUGBY

Focus goes on Watters Cup

By Jonathan Leask

Jonathan.l@theguardian.co.nz

The focus shifts to the Watters Cup in Mid Canterbury rugby this week.

The competition kicked off way back in April and has had cross-over matches throughout the Combined Country Cup, which concluded last week, and only two weeks remain before the finals.

Rakaia and Methven are already locked in for semi-finals, with two wins and a draw each, and only have one match each before the semi-finals while Celtic, Southern and Hampstead are all chasing the remaining two playoff berths.

Celtic and Hampstead square off with plenty to play for, in-

cluding the Travis Durham Memorial trophy.

The hosts will be out to maintain their grip on the Travis Durham Memorial, with Celtic’s 19-5 win over Hampstead last year the fourth straight year they have won the trophy – in memorial of Durham who played senior rugby for both clubs before he was killed in a car crash.

Hampstead won the inaugural match in 2009 and hasn’t held the trophy since, nor have they made the semi-finals, being the fifth wheel for the last few seasons.

A win and they are in contention to end the unwanted streak, but a loss has them in must-win mode against Southern next week.

Southern are also after a win to get their Watters Cup campaign back on track after losses to Rakaia and Celtic, and avoid heading to Hampstead next week for what could be a sudden death decider.

A rejuvenated Southern that has won back-to-back matches for the first time this season-coming from behind to beat Hampstead last weekend and host an injury hit Methven coming off two tough losses but still looking to lock in a home semi-final before a two week break.

Rakaia have the bye before hosting Celtic next week, with the Max Gilbert Trophy on the line.

Cook keeps captaincy England cricket coach Peter Moores insists he won’t be party to taking the captaincy from Alastair Cook in a bid to get the opener back to his best form with the bat.

It is 24 innings since Cook scored the last of his England record 25 Test centuries, a sequence that includes the 100-run second Test defeat by Sri Lanka at Headingley this week that gave the tourists a 1-0 win in the two-match series.

But Moores said there was no question of Cook giving up the leadership of the side, even on a temporary basis, ahead of next month’s home five-Test series against India.

Srinivasan new ICC boss Suspended Indian cricket chief Narayanaswami Srinivasan has been appointed as the new chairman of the International Cricket Council. He was confirmed in the position on the final day of the ICC annual conference in Melbourne yesterday, describing it as an honour.

All Blacks give Chiefs a boost By kris shannon In the strict hierarchy of rugby in this country, it’s rare to find a Super Rugby side benefiting from the All Blacks rather than the reverse.

But the Chiefs were real winners from the recent international window, with their star man allowed to find form in the black jersey before returning for his franchise’s home stretch, beginning tomorrow night at the Highlanders.

Aaron Cruden shapes as pivotal in the defending champions’ desperate charge from eighth place to the playoffs.

It’s far from an unusual position for the first five but, over the course of the next month, his importance will be exemplified.

The Chiefs have three matches to win if they wish to extend their search for a third straight title and Cruden’s role in that quest will be crucial, tasked with reviving an attack that this season has become predictable and lacking in a finishing touch.

And if Cruden is to succeed in that task and lead the Chiefs to the postseason, both player and team will owe a debt of gratitude to the All Blacks coaches.

Before the June break, Cruden was struggling to regain his touch after a long lay-off with a broken thumb.

He was then scratchy in the opening test against England, improved in the second and, critically for the Chiefs, retained for the third despite a strong case for Beauden Barrett to assume the No 10 jersey.

Team NZ has the cash Team New Zealand has pocketed about $10 million from private donors to keep it afloat and prepare it to mount a challenge for the next America’s Cup. A challenge had looked in doubt when, two weeks ago, chief executive Grant Dalton said Team NZ would be gone by the end of the month without an immediate multimillion-dollar cash injection from taxpayers. But chairman Keith Turner announced yesterday that the team had secured enough private sponsorship to commit to a challenge.

Origin III alive and well

Aaron Cruden aims to get a kick past his rival for the All Blacks first five spot.

Instead, Cruden produced a scintillating first half display at Waikato Stadium, looking like his old self and providing encouragement to a coach who will now be leaning on his protege even more than usual.

“He’s ready to go, he’s keen to play and I thought he was outstanding [in the third test],” said Dave Rennie. “I think [the All Blacks series] was good for him. He’s the type of guy, the more he plays, the better he gets. If you look from our point of view, up to getting injured he’d started every game.

“He tends to thrive on that.”

Having led the competition in scoring last season, the Chiefs sit ninth in that category after

13 games plagued by inconsistency.

The Chiefs accrued only six wins before the break and the team’s woes were attributed to the attack when the coaches conducted a review during some invaluable time off over June.

Tanerau Latimer, meanwhile, felt his side had become too predictable, relying on what reaped past successes instead of keeping the opposition guessing, and he hoped Cruden’s presence would help to reverse that trend.

“I know he loves playing for this team and we love having him,” Latimer said. “He’s certainly a point of difference for us. I think he’s got a new lease

of life and it’ll be good for us.”

Assistant coach Andrew Strawbridge agreed with the latter assessment, feeling Cruden had found a good head space while on international duty.

The player himself admitted to truly trusting his natural instincts only in the third test, and Strawbridge said that was to be expected from such a highly-skilled position.

“It’s really hard to hit the ground running again. But it was really exciting to watch him with the sort of confidence and speed and positive mindset that we know he generally has.

“It’s great to see him working his way back into form.”

After waiting so long for a State of Origin series win, NSW backrower Greg Bird says there’s no way the Blues are treating game three like a dead rubber. Bird says clinching the series in Sydney last Wednesday to end Queensland’s run of eight straight series wins was the highlight of his rugby league career. But if Maroons’ fans think Bird and his teammates are going to be in party mode for the final game in this year’s Origin, they have another think coming.

“We want to go out and make it a whitewash,” said Bird, who had endured six series defeats before this year.

Tiger on comeback trail Tiger Woods was pleased with his final practice round before returning to competition after a three-month injury layoff, saying yesterday he was still rusty but his back felt fine. “Generally it feels good,” Woods said. “I hit some loose shots today but I also hit some really good ones. Back feels great which is a really good sign.”

Woods, continuing to undergo therapy, played a morning pro-am round ahead of his start at the US PGA National at Congressional Country Club. The former world No.1 has not played a competitive round since March 9 following back surgery to ease a pinched nerve, but hopes to test his game at Congressional ahead of next month’s British Open.

In brief Italian football in crisis No coach, no president, no forwards and no place in the World Cup knock-out rounds. The question is, where do Italy go from here? Right now, the common feeling is that Italian football is in crisis. This had long been the case in the club game but at least the national team could on occasions relieve the gloom, such as when they reached the Euro 2012 final.

That is no longer the case after a second successive World Cup group stage elimination, in a country full of fans used to success.

Nigerians’ friendly fire Nigeria striker Michael Babatunde is expected to be out for the rest of the World Cup after suffering a broken arm in his team’s 3-2 loss to Argentina, coach Stephen Keshi says. The incident occurred when 21-year-old Babatunde was struck by a powerful shot from teammate Ogenyi Onazi in the second half of the World Cup match. “It does not look good,” Keshi said of Babatunde’s injury. He is expected to need surgery on the injury, meaning he won’t play in Nigeria’s knockout match against France in Brasilia on Monday.

Hat-trick for Shaqiri Switzerland’s Xherdan Shaqiri erased his side’s lingering World Cup pain in Manaus yesterday, scoring a hat-trick to see off Honduras 3-0 and secure a daunting last-16 tie against Lionel Messi’s Argentina. Four years ago the Central Americans denied Switzerland a place in the knockout rounds by holding out for a 0-0 draw, but two first-half goals from the impressive Bayern Munich midfielder gave Honduras a mountain to climb. Coach Luis Suarez’s team fought hard to get back into the game even though they had no chance of progressing, but a third goal from the midfielder killed their hopes.

Germany, US face off Friends clash on either side of the World Cup divide this morning when Jurgen Klinsmann’s United States meet Joachim Loew’s Germany for top spot in Group G. Having met on a coaching course, Loew became Klinsmann’s assistant a decade ago when the pair were brought in following the Euro 2004 debacle as Germany finished the group stages winless.

Under their stewardship, Germany became known for fast-paced attacking football as talented youngsters such as Lukas Podolski and Bastian Schweinsteiger were given their chance. The pair took Germany to third at the 2006 World Cup before Klinsmann stood down as coach to be replaced by Loew, who has since steered them to at least the semi-finals of the last three major tournaments.- AFP

■ CUP CONTROVERSY

Suarez awaits biting verdict

By RoB WoollaRd International football officials have met to decide whether Uruguay striker Luis Suarez should be thrown out of the World Cup for biting an opponent.

A disciplinary panel gathered evidence against Suarez, who was shown sinking his teeth into Italy’s Giorgio Chiellini during a match this week.

As Suarez, banned twice before for biting opposing players, awaited the outcome of the disciplinary hearing, Uruguay’s President Jose Mujica rallied his country to the footballer’s cause.

“I did not see him bite anyone,” Mujica told reporters.

“But they give each other so many kicks and blows and normally they put up with it.”

Uruguay Football Association chief Wilmar Valdez presented evidence on Suarez’s behalf to a FIFA panel in Rio. “We believe that there is not sufficient evidence to truly sanction Luis,” Valdez told Uruguayan television.

“It has to be clear and on the video that FIFA gave us we think that it is not really clear,” Valdez said.

“We are confident that our defence will obtain results,” he added.

FIFA spokeswoman Delia Fischer said earlier the disciplinary committee wanted to reach a decision on Suarez’s case “as early as possible.”

Uruguay are due to face Colombia in the last 16 on Saturday.

Fischer would not speculate on any possible punishment, although she said Suarez’s previous offences could be taken into account.

“The disciplinary committee can take all elements into account as it deems necessary,” she said.

Suarez, who plays in the English Premier League for Liverpool, is one of the world’s biggest stars, and could theoretically be banned for up to 24 games under FIFA rules.

Fischer declined to say whether any potential punishment could extend to club as well as international football.

“It’s the disciplinary committee which decides the scope of

any potential sanctions,” she said.

Suarez has already received long bans for biting during his club career as well as racially abusing Manchester United player Patrice Evra during a game in 2011.

The latest flashpoint occurred near the end of the Group D

“

Suarez sought to play down the incident in comments to Uruguayan television, claiming Chiellini had barged him.

“There are things that happen on the pitch and you should not make such a big deal out of them,” Suarez said.

However the damning video evidence has drawn almost

game in Natal.

Replays showed Suarez biting Chiellini’s shoulder in an offthe-ball incident.

Chiellini angrily remonstrated with Mexican referee Marco Rodriguez, pulling his shirt off his shoulder to show red marks on his neck.

Afterwards, he told Italian television: “He bit me, it’s clear, I still have the mark.”

blanket condemnation.

Former England captain Alan Shearer, working in Brazil for the BBC, said FIFA should impose a lengthy global ban.

“I would give him a worldwide ban for as long as I could,” Shearer said.

“It’s not the first time, it’s not the second time, it’s the third time - to actually bite someone on a football pitch in front of

millions. It’s unacceptable.”

Online gambling firm 888poker said it was “reviewing” its relationship with the player.

“We will not tolerate unsporting behaviour,” the enterprise said.

German sporting goods manufacturer Adidas said it was awaiting FIFA’s “full investigation into this matter.”

With the Suarez controversy dominating the off-field headlines, it was left to Argentina captain Lionel Messi to put the focus back on football.

Messi scored two goals - taking his tournament tally to four in three games - as Argentina beat Nigeria 3-2 to finish top of Group F. Nigeria also reached the last 16 for the first time since 1998 despite the defeat after Iran were beaten 3-1 by already eliminated Bosnia.

In the late games France and Switzerland both sealed qualification from Group E. France topped the group after a 0-0 draw with Ecuador while Switzerland beat Honduras 3-0.

razil is a very, very big place.

As the group stages have reached their end, this has created some challenging dynamics for anyone being part of the Fifa World Cup circus.

So far fans, journalists and Fifa staff and others following the matches around this enormous country have spent much of their time at airports, bus stations and in taxis to get from game to game.

It has been especially hard on the supporters who want to follow one particular team because the schedule has put each team in three different corners of this continent-sized country.

ment made it near impossible to book travel for the play-offs.

So now thousands of fans have tickets for their team’s matches THflights or but struggle to get drive thousands of kilometres across the country.

TH Dutch fan websites are overflowing with ticket offers from supporters in Sao Paulo or Rio who can’t get to Fortaleza by Sunday for their match against Mexico. To put it in perspective, that trip is roughly the same as Sydney to Darwin, and few people realised that Brazil is the fifth largest country in the world, bigger than Australia and only smaller than Russia, Canada, China and the United States.

You would almost suspect the airlines to have played a part in planning this event, as football tournaments of the past used to base the four teams of a group in adjacent cities.

This philosophy changed some years ago, and airlines have been making a killing ever since.

Fifa’s approach has sadly turned the World Cup into the playground for the wealthy, who have been able to make a calculated decision whether they wanted to fork out the additional thousands of dollars for domestic flights.

Perry nudged off powerful bench

BY JONATHAN LEASK

JONATHAN.L@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Joe Moody’s return to first class rugby has pushed former Mid Canterbury prop Tim Perry out of the Crusaders’ match day 23 as their Super 15 campaign resumes against the Hurricanes in Wellington tomorrow.

Moody (right) who broke his leg in the ITM Cup final last year, made his return to the Crusaders in the mid-week international against England af-

ter getting some game time for eventual champions Lincoln in the Combined Country Cup. There’s another player to make his return via club rugby in the same competition, with Dan Carter’s two runs for Southbridge enough of a hit out to be recalled – named on the bench behind Colin Slade.

Wyatt Crockett has been given the nod to start at loosehead with Corey Flynn and Nepo Laulala in the front row. Owen Franks, Ben Funnell and Moody

provide cover on the bench with no room for Perry - who also turned out against the English.

Being left out of the squad would have given Perry a chance to have another run for Rakaia in the Mid Canterbury Watters Cup competition, except for the fact they have the bye this weekend.

In the Crusaders backline Nemani Nadolo is still on representative duties with Fiji, playing Cook Islands in a World Cup qualifier, to have Nafi Tuitavake

and Johnny McNicholl on the wings.

Ryan Crotty and Kieron Fonotia are in the midfield with Tom Taylor at fullback while Israel Dagg recovers from injury.

The match against the Hurricanes is the Crusaders’ final away game in the 2014 regular season.

They finish with two home games, against the Blues and the Highlanders, which will help decide whether they continue to the play-off rounds.

Ashburton College’s Chloe Te Moananui breaks away to score one of her six tries in the 52-15 win over Waitaki in the Aoraki Secondary Schools’ girls’ rugby competition at the Celtic Rugby Club on Wednesday night.

Chloe on a personal try-fest

JONATHAN.L@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Chloe Te Moananui scored an incredible six tries in Ashburton College Girls’ 1st XV’s 37-point win over Waitaki in the Aoraki Secondary Schools’ girls’ rugby competition on Wednesday.

Chloe dotted down three times in each half, but the Te Mo-

ananui name was on score sheet seven times on Wednesday night as another of the Te Moananui triplets, Erina, also scored a try as College continued their unbeaten season.

Waitaki surprised the hosts by scoring the opening try of the match, only the second time this season they have been

behind on the scoreboard.

Ashburton responded with the first of Chloe’s six tries which Naomi Cone successfully converted.

Chloe then made an incisive break through the Waitaki defence from just inside their half and Cone was successful with the conversion again.

Waitaki replied with their second unconverted try only for College to reply quickly as Chloe ran in for a first half hat-trick as College went to the break ahead 19-10.

A strong run from Ash McBride led to Nicole Purdom diving over for a great start to the second half.

Chloe then crashed over for her second hat-trick of the day with three tries in 10 minutes, and Cone added the extras on all three occasions to extend the score out to 47-10.

Waitaki scored a consolation try before Erina scored the final try for College to seal the 52-15 win.

College 1st XV still targeting a top eight finish

BY JONATHAN LEASK

JONATHAN.L@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Ashburton College will settle for nothing less than a win over bottom of the table St Thomas in the Crusaders Secondary Schools’ Rugby Championship tomorrow.

After letting another close game slip away in the 12-all draw with Christ’s College, Ashburton are targeting at least the four points against the only team without a win, St Thomas, in the 15-team competition.

Basketballers clean up P16

Ashburton are currently 10th and seven points behind eighth placed Burnside with six rounds to go.

Tomorrow’s match is game two of a three-game away stretch, with former coach Shane En-

rights’ Timaru Boy’s in Timaru next week.

Ashburton’s goal of back-toback top eight finishes hinges on wins over the closing rounds after already meeting the current top five sides over the open-

ing nine rounds. After the sixth placed Timaru Boys’, their run home consists of home matches against Shirley (7th) and Waimea (14th) and Lincoln (13th) away before finishing up against Rangiora (12th) at home.
