■ PRIME MINISTER VISITS

English goes walkabout in town

By SuSan SandyS

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Prime Minister Bill English talked farming, business, and small talk as he toured Ashburton yesterday afternoon on a pre-election visit.

He is the country’s most preferred prime minister leading into the September 23 election, and that was certainly the feeling in Ashburton as he charmed his way around the town.

Among those pleased to meet him was the team at the thriving agricultural business of Carrfields, based at the Riverside Industrial Park, which employs 500-plus staff.

Following a presentation from managers he toured the production floor and offices, and among those he met was general manager for pulses division, Stephen Tait.

Tait told English he had dealt in business with his mother many years ago when he was at Southland Farmers stock and station company in Invercargill.

Mrs English, renowned for her ability in running the family farm Englishton at Dipton, would pull the chair up to the other side of the desk at Southland Farmers to discuss pasture seed for re-grassing.

English joked what had been irritating was his mum would often want to do things differently to the way his father had, “but usually it would turn out to be right”.

Tait told the Guardian Mrs English would write down every word which was said at those meetings, so it had been important to make sure what one said was right.

“She was lovely, a very astute business person,” Tait said.

English did not completely escape discussion on political issues, and when talking to operations manager contracting Geoff Roberts, heard about the challenges of immigration processes and how long it took to get visas for staff from overseas.

English has retained his spot in recent polls as the country’s most preferred PM, however, a comment he made at Carrfields made it sound like he was not taking anything for granted. He

Emergency services swarmed to Rakaia yesterday afternoon after two cars collided on the main street.

The incident occurred shortly after 3pm near the intersection of Bowen Street and the Rakaia highway, in the 70km/h area.

One person was treated for minor injuries by St John paramedics.

The incident was also attended by several police cars, two fire trucks from Ashburton station and one fire truck from Rakaia

station. A tow truck was required to remove one vehicle from the scene. The other vehicle, a red Subaru Outlander, could be seen off the side of the road with moderate damage to the front.

Police were diverting southbound traffic on the Rakaia highway around the area of the crash.

They also blocked off Bowen Street.

■ CHINESE SETTLEMENT

‘Grandiose’ plan scaled back

By SuSan SandyS

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

The Ashburton District Council has pledged to work with descendants of those who established the town’s historical Chinese settlement as it develops and improves the area.

Descendant Robert King spoke to a meeting of the finance and business support committee on Thursday, and said some of the concepts in a heritage report commissioned by the council were tending to be “grandiose”.

Issues he, and some fellow descendants he had had discussions with, found disconcerting included options such as establishing a community orchard or allotments, consultation with Chinese groups outside of the descendants’ families, a large car parking area, an exuberant memorial when a simple one would suffice, and an archaeological survey dig.

The Chinese Settlement is on 2.4 hectares of land on Allens Road, and once had 12 houses and 80 people living there.

King said catering for tour

■ ASHBURTON DISTRICT COUNCIL

In brief

District copes well with deluge

By SuSan SandyS

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Roads and paddocks turned to lakes and rivers in the recent flood event, but all in all the district coped well.

That was the summation from Ashburton District councillors and staff at a council service delivery committee meeting on Thursday.

Staff gave a presentation, Rain Event July 21 and 22, and showed about 80 photos of areas affected in the downpour.

Service delivery manager Neil McCann said it had been a onein-60 year flood event, with up to 160 millimetres of rain from the Thursday evening to Friday afternoon.

He was aware of just two houses in Ashburton which had flooding come inside to soak the floor, one in Belt Road and one in Tinwald.

Flooded roads were many and included Charlesworth Drive which had to be pumped, and Hepburns Road which had water entering from the Ashburton and Lyndhurst irrigation channel.

Detention ponds behind Bunnings had showed their value, holding water and preventing it from running into the lower parts of Ashburton.

Seaside roads had been damaged including Waipuna Road which had a section washed away.

Roading manager Brian Fauth said Ocean View Road was an

area which needed addressing in future and may have to be moved.

McCann said the event was well forecast and the council had been able to plan for it.

“Once it hit on Friday, it was just response,” McCann said.

“Generally our infrastructure did what it was supposed to do.”

There had not been enough flooding signs, a problem which had occurred in other districts as well. People needed to know about flooding, drive to the conditions and stay off the roads in such an event.

There was discussion about the value of water races in draining flooding, and with regard to the redundant Hepburns Road irrigation race, the council may need to keep it open in order to help with drainage.

Councillor Neil Brown said this would have to be done sooner than later, as farmers had been told they could fill it in.

Mayor Donna Favel was asked why the district had not declared a Civil Defence emergency, and said it had been prepared with great infrastructure in place. She was backed up by McCann who said the situation had not been escalating and out of control.

“It just wasn’t necessary as far as we were concerned,” he said.

Favel said the frequency of such events was increasing, and dealing with climate change was high on Local Government New Zealand’s mandate.

guilty verdict, Sanft’s wife and others in the public gallery cried, while some called to him to “stay strong”.

Sanft had already pleaded guilty to unlawful possession of a pistol, as the sawn-off shotgun was technically classified.

consolable. He rushed to cradle her in his arms, howling, wailing and crying out, “I shot her”.

Amokura’s mother, Julia Daniels, family friends and police would all be brought to tears by the tragic scene that day.

No one claims Sanft meant to shoot his daughter.

Crown prosecutors said his failure to handle the gun safely caused Amokura’s death.

Prosecutor Katie Hogan said

The Ashburton District Council’s service delivery committee has approved construction and initial funding of a water-main extension for a new subdivision in Wilkins Road from Grove Street. Assets manager Andrew Guthrie told councillors it was a small extension, adding another 22 connections.

Councillors supported the recommendation to also include the part recovery of the construction cost through a lump sum contribution, estimated at $4643 excluding GST, from the developers for each proposed serviced lot.

Additionally, there would be costs for each property as they connected to the water-main in future, estimated at $3500 exclusive GST.

Road closure approved

Guilty verdict in toddler’s manslaughter case Gustav Otto Sanft has been found guilty of his daughter’s manslaughter after shooting her in the head with a sawn-off shotgun.

Sanft, 26, has been on trial at the High Court in Auckland after he accidentally killed two-yearold Amokura Daniels-Sanft last year.

The jury yesterday took four hours to determine Sanft’s fate, concluding the two-week-long trial. As the jury read out the

Water-main extension

Sanft had failed to check if the weapon was loaded, if its safety catch was on, and he not only held the weapon too close to his daughter but pointed it at her and pulled the trigger, perhaps to jokingly scare her for “playing up”.

Ultimately, both the Crown and defence acknowledge Sanft made a tragic mistake that day.

He will be sentenced on September 7.

Ashburton District Councillors recommended a licence to occupy be approved for Lismore Dairy Limited, so it can install cattle stops and associated fencing.

The company was wanting to direct stock across the road and prevent them from wandering into the Hinds River bed. The double cattle stop was required on Lismore School Road at the boundary of the Hinds River and the end of the road.

Boil water notice lifted The Ashburton District Council advised yesterday the precautionary boil water notice for the Methven water supply has now been lifted, however the Montalto, Methven-Springfield and Mt Somers water schemes will remain on their boil water notice until further advised. The water quality of the Methven water supply has returned to normal and no contamination has been detected.

There had been high turbidity – or cloudiness in the supply since Friday, 21 July which triggered the precautionary boil water notice.

Succession a touchy, fiery subject

BY COLIN WILLISCROFT

COLIN.W@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Current attitudes towards farm succession have the potential to spell the end of the traditional New Zealand family farm.

That was one of the messages Charlotte Rietveld (nee Nell), guest speaker at the Rural Women New Zealand (RWNZ) Region 2 (Canterbury) conference in Ashburton yesterday, told the more than 50 women who attended the event, held at the Seniors Centre.

One of three siblings who grew up on Middle Rock Station near Windwhistle, Rietveld started a career in banking when she left university. Her brother became an accountant and her sister a lawyer.

When it looked like the farm would be sold out of the family after her father Bruce retired, Ri-

etveld, then 27, returned to the farm with her husband Vince.

As Vince runs his own business selling four-wheel-drive accessories, it is Rietveld who, despite having two children, aged 16 months and two weeks, is the farmer.

Now co-owner of the property with her parents and husband, Rietveld said the current method of farm succession assumes that every child of the farming family has an equal share of the farm.

“Should one child wish to go farming, then they are expected to pay out their siblings’ equal shares of the farm’s market value.

“For most farming businesses, this is an impossible debt loading. Therefore family concessions are made.

“But I would argue that the current ‘fairness’ attitude to farm

Ashburton Resource Recovery Park has own weather station

BY KATIE TODD

KATIE.T@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

A shiny new weather station has kicked into action in an unlikely location – the Ashburton dump.

The weather station has been installed above the landfill at the Ashburton Resource Recovery Park.

Council waste recovery manager Craig Goodwin said the device would help council staff to monitor conditions and better plan their operations at the park.

In particular, the device would monitor wind data, which has proven a key issue in the area in the past.

The resource recovery park had to close at one point in January when materials blowing around caused problems for visitors and staff.

A key issue that staff mentioned to the Guardian in January was the difference between weather forecasts for Ashburton and conditions up at the park.

Goodwin said that the data from the new weather station would also be available to other users.

“Other departments will be able to use it plus I think ECan are quite interested in seeing what’s going on up there,” he said.

avoided those pitfalls, “at times we were walking a fine line between maintaining realistic expectations and descending into a battle of rights”.

Also speaking at the conference were former Kellogg lead-

ership programme participant Kate Boyd, RWNZ national chairwoman Penny Mudford, United Nations committee Association of Country Women of the World chair Kerry Maw and RWNZ leadership councillor Bev Bagrie.

■ ALL SAINTS ANGLICAN CHURCH

Service dedicated to fallen soldiers

BY KATIE TODD

KATIE.T@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

Tomorrow will be a special day at the All Saints Anglican Church in Ruapuna and those familiar with the church’s stained glass windows might know why.

Last month marked 100 years since Private Oliver Jesse Baxter’s death in World War One – the solider to whom one of the windows is dedicated.

Inspired by the milestone, the parish is now holding a special commemorative service for New Zealanders who have lost their lives in war.

“We will be remembering all soldiers from World War One onwards,” Reverend Annette Eggleston said.

The service will include appropriate readings and hymns in memory of soldiers, including the National Anthem.

People with connections to soldiers will have the opportunity to speak and deliver the readings, including Private Oliver Jesse Baxter’s great nephew Roger Baxter.

“It will be nice to go to, to remember all the men who went to war, who sacrificed their lives for us,” Baxter said.

He said that it is important to recognise how the connections between the local community and those who fought in the war.

The stained glass window was installed in memory of Baxter by his brothers, Earnest and Douglas, when the church was built in 1926.

Baxter was a Ruapuna farmer assigned to the Canterbury Infantry Regiment and killed in action in Messines, Belgium, in 1917.

Twelve other men from the Ashburton/Selwyn districts are reported to have died that same day in Belgium.

The lower three panels of the window depict Jesus Christ and the personification of Lady Justice, while the upper panels feature a Christian cross, an anchor and the symbols for Alpha and Omega.

The All Saints Anglican Church is a small, stone church which serves both Mayfield and Mt Somers.

“It’s a dear little church,” Eggleston said.

Sunshine is forecast for the morning so light will hopefully be spilling through the window during the service.

Ruapuna’s All Saints Anglican Church are planning a soldier commemoration service inspired by the history of one of the church’s stained glass windows.

School to review its uniform policy Whanganui High School will review its uniform policy after one of its female students insisting on wearing trousers to school.

Principal Martin McAllen said he and the board of trustees would like feedback from the school community on “issues related to gender and school uniforms”.

And at least one other Whanganui secondary school is reviewing rules around school uniform.

Karla Mills, 14, was sent home to change after wearing trousers to school.

Karla and her mother Jessica took their campaign to TVNZ’s Fair Go, and it aired on Monday night.

Karla told Fair Go she always wore trousers outside school, and decided to wear them to school after being sick with a cold. She chose straight black trousers – similar to those worn by the male students – saying they were warmer and more comfortable.

“I was so much warmer, I could move freely. It was just so much easier,” she said.

But her decision fell foul of school rules and Karla was sent

home to change to the regulation girl’s skirt. Karla said making girls wear skirts was “following the rules from the 1950s”.

“We should be catching up with the times and not living in the past.

“Most women you see walk down the street wear pants or shorts, not skirts.”

She has taken her clothing rebellion to social media and has received a lot of support as well as some criticism.

McAllen said the uniform would be reviewed by the school board this term.

“The board believes that the policy has been in place for many years and does not adequately cater for all student needs. An important part of the review will be seeking feedback from all students and their whanau.”

McAllen said the review would be finished in time for the next academic year.

He said the school was “concerned” that Karla went to Fair Go rather than approaching him or the school board.

“We strongly encourage diverse

open dialogue on matters that are of interest and impact on our student body or their whanau.”

The Wanganui Chronicle asked other principals whether they planned to review uniform policies.

Peter Kaua from Whanganui City College said there was no plan to review their school uniform.

“We haven’t had a need for it.”

He said female students who were part of the school’s military academy wore trousers on parade.

“They’re the only female students in our school who wear trousers.”

However, Cullinane College is conducting a regular review of rules and procedures, and acting prinicpal Marty Bullock said that would include uniforms.

He said the board of trustees, which included a student representative as well as representatives of the Catholic Church, would do the review.

“Any change will take a while to be worked through.”

Tania King, principal of Whanganui Girls’ College, declined to comment.

‘Every day is a celebration’ after Cancer is no respecter of age, gender or wealth. It changes lives, changes people. Ashburton woman Mary Banks talks to reporter Sue Newman about the impact of her oral cancer on her life, on the lives of the people she loves and on the new appreciation her survival has given her for the little things in life.

T

oday Mary Banks counts her life in small blessings – sunshine, friends, family, even going to work.

When you’ve stared death in the face, when you’ve lived with excruciating pain, when your body has been so weak you couldn’t carry a litre container of milk, then every day of good health becomes a miracle, a day that has to be appreciated, Mary says.

Her story started like so many stories of a cancer journey, with signs, symptoms that were easy to ignore, easy to dismiss as just an ulcer, a lesion, a lump or a bruise.

And like many of those stories, hindsight makes it clear that taken together, those small signs were a signal that something was very wrong.

She’s two years on the healthy side of oral cancer and while her body is healing, Mary says her mind is still coming to terms with some of the harsher sides of the black days post-surgery.

“Looking back, I hadn’t been really well for about two years. My doctor did every test available. I remember leaving work one day with an ulcer and a sore throat on one side,” she said.

The sore throat stayed and the pain increased. Mary thought the problem could be a wisdom tooth and booked an appointment with her dentist. That visit would be the catalyst for a cancer diagnosis that changed her life.

“The dentist looked in my mouth, turned out the light and called in his senior and from there on, it was all whizz bang.”

A biopsy on June 17 confirmed the pain was caused by a large tumour along her jaw. Surgery was booked for July 20. The weeks between were a blur as Mary went through countless tests, hospital visits and meetings with multidisciplinary teams.

“It was really full on and a lot of it was a blur to me. I know I went into shock when I was told. The surgeon held my hands and said, ‘yes it’s cancer, it’s a large tumour’.

It’s just so full on, you can’t absorb it all,” she said.

Husband Lyndsey and her friends would become the rocks that Mary clung to in the weeks before surgery and during her long recovery.

Initially she coped by making lists, sorting out who should be told, what they should be told and how life should run while she was in hospital.

“That basically kept me going.”

Their sons were living in Perth and while she desperately wanted them home, Mary did not want them living through the trauma of her operation. They took charge, however, and came home for a surprise visit before her surgery was scheduled, at a time when fear was a constant companion.

“That was just what I needed because I honestly thought I wouldn’t make it,” she said.

Knowing she would undergo a rigorous course of post-operation radiation therapy and chemotherapy she cut off her long hair.

She could do practical things, but there was nothing she could do

to calm her mind, to fight off the worrying words – what if?

“I knew the operation would be major. I was more worried about losing my voice than about how I’d look afterwards, but I didn’t really understand the full extent of what would happen.”

While the surgical team went to great lengths to ensure she under-

stood what the operation would entail, Mary said the human mind can only absorb so much before it shuts down. Hers simply went into overload.

The operation took 12 hours.

The facts are harsh. Her lower jaw sawed in half and her face spread open. The left side of her jaw along with several teeth were removed,

metal plates screwed into place to rebuild the lost area, large areas of soft tissue were removed and significant skin grafts made with tissue from her inner arm.

The days following were critical as the operation’s success lay in whether or not the grafts had taken or whether other operations would be needed. Mary was lucky.

Blood quickly began flowing between graft and surrounding issue.

As her recovery began, her body was a mass of tubes, wires and monitors. Surgeons told her the umour was at the top end of the cale but that the operation had been a success.

and upper body mask had to be worn. Her dosage was at the top end of the scale and that’s left residual burn damage, including ongoing mouth pain. She’s philosophical about needing daily pain medication.

“Without radiation I wouldn’t be here so that’s a small price to pay,” she said.

The post-operative days were hell. While there were plenty of people offering company and kind thoughts, all Mary wanted was to be left alone to deal with what had happened and to work on recovery on her own terms.

“And at that stage, I do admit there were times when I felt I couldn’t do it anymore.”

Chemo had to be delayed because she was too sick, but when it began the regime was harsh. It finally started on her birthday.

She spent two weeks in hospital after surgery and had ongoing visits from a district nurse once she was home. Her fragile health saw her hospitalised twice for pneumonia.

As she struggled through the weeks and months after surgery, Mary’s weight plummeted to less than 40kg. Every day was a struggle, but every day was also a triumph as she achieved small milestones that showed she was inching her way back to good health. Recovery was slow. Depression was a regular visitor.

“It’s really only been in the last couple of months though that I’ve started to put on weight,” she said.

Her slow weight gain has everything to do with the limited jaw movement she now has. Because she struggled to eat, Mary had a feeding tube for some time, but a red letter day came at Christmas that first year when it was removed and she was able to eat turkey, mashed potato and gravy.

Meet Mary today and there’s little sign of her major surgery.

Inevitably there is still pain – it’s like someone has socked her in the jaw she says.

“I can’t fully open my mouth and when I eat it takes over an hour. There are now certain things I have to avoid because I can choke and I don’t go out for meals.”

Radiation destroyed her salivary glands and that means her food needs to be quite liquid. Her mouth constantly dries out and she needs to frequently drink water.

Her tongue is raw from radiation and fizzy drinks or spicy food are painful to eat.

“I’ve had to adapt a lot, but hey, I’m alive. There are a lot of people worse off than me,” she said.

It’s been a tough two years and there’s been huge support from many people, but Mary says she’s always been aware her illness was very hard on husband Lyndsey.

He also needed a strong support

network. It’s two years since her operation, two years and six weeks since diagnosis.

“I can’t say I’m cancer free, that takes five years, but I’m now on three-monthly appointments and that’s really cool. I’m feeling well now.

“How do you get through this?

It’s one hour, one day at a time. I have such a supportive family and friends and after seven months off I’m back at work 22 hours a week. That’s all I can manage, but they’ve (Bunnings) been pretty supportive. It takes me twice as long to do anything, but I know I now have to put myself first,” she said.

Look at Mary today and there is little sign she’s undergone major facial surgery. Talk to Mary and it’s clear she’s feeling good.

She’s getting on with life, notching up small milestones and never taking a single thing for granted.

That’s what cancer does to you, she said.

“You just get out there and get on with life. I’ve had so many people’s support and prayers it’s wonderful, it’s made me so humble. Just a kind word, doing a little thing can give you a huge boost.”

Yes, she still has bleak days and if she finds a lump, bump or bruise or feels a little unwell, her first thoughts are always – “Oh God, it’s back”.

That’s the harsh reality of a major brush with cancer.

She’s happy to talk to anyone whose been diagnosed with oral or throat cancer, but not yet. There are things she’s still dealing with, ghost thoughts that still float into her mind as memories surface.

“Sometimes in the middle of the night things will come back to me and I have to get up and think them through.”

Her cancer journey has taken her close to death and it’s seen her wondering what her future holds, but it hasn’t left her bitter, she counts every day in new milestones, new blessings.

“I’m just a person it’s happened to. Shit happens and you just have to sink or swim. Yes I’ll have issues for life and yes I’ll have to take good care of myself, but hey, I’m alive. Every day is a celebration.”

Lyndsey and Mary have made one trip to Perth since her operation and plan another at Christmas time.

She’s redecorated the house from top to bottom. The couple will welcome their third grandchild in the new year and that is just one of many reasons why, no matter how bad things get, you should never give up, Mary said.

“It’s not easy, but it’s copeable.

It’s one day at a time.”

If there are any positives from her experience it’s that Mary knows it’s prompted several people to have dental checks for mouth health.

Lucy’s new life at Otago University F

irst-year Otago University student Lucy Clough misses Alex the cat and avocado toast, but is making a busy, new life in Dunedin.

Lucy, 18, is studying first year health sciences and also keeping her passion for music alive through the New Zealand Youth Choir. A competitive swimmer since the age of nine, she has quit the pool to make way for new things.

She was sad to give it up, but credits the early morning starts and training routine as the foundation for her work hard approach to school and now university life.

From an early age, Lucy has wanted to be a pharmacist. That is still her plan if she survives the tough first year. “I won’t lie, it’s hard. But I’m taking every day as it comes.”

Lucy was the first recipient of the Ashburton College Alumni Scholarship in 2016, a $1000 boost to the cost of her tertiary education funded by NBS Ashburton. The award recognises the commitment of a Year 13 student to college life.

A typical day for her now at Otago University starts with lectures from 8am, in papers that include human body systems, physics, chemistry and cell biology. She starts at 8am and has 16 lectures a week from Monday to Friday, plus a three-hour practical lab session for each subject fortnightly, finishing at 9pm.

And in between every single class she studies, in her room at Carrington College or at the library.

Former Ashcoll students Ruby Wills and Albertene Hefford, first-year health science students at Otago in 2016, are among those Lucy can call on for help if she needs it.

“Ruby and Albertene have set up a Facebook page and they mentor us, share their notes and words of wisdom.”

The support was crucial for Lucy when she succumbed to two sinus infections in the first semester. Still, she is working hard to hit her academic targets and preparing for tough exams ahead. If she continues with pharmacy, she will have three more years at the university and another as an intern at a hospital or retail pharmacy.

Her new family at Carrington College is also important. “The biggest thing about it is it feels like home. I don’t picture myself at any other college except here. It has such a good community and lots of support networks.”

Carrington College has 240 students, living in a collection of villas and houses on grounds close to the university.

Lucy says there are lots of opportunities to socialise and get to know students from all over the world.

She has also found a way to continue her passion for music which at Ashburton College involved belonging to the Phoenix Chorus, and playing the piano, cello

Support for the school that shaped us

Lucy Clough and double bass. Her musical talents have earned her a reserve place in the New Zealand Youth Choir, the Southern Youth Choir and Carrington College’s new musical scholarship. She is in charge of music at Carrington, running music events and taking the choir, as well as organising inter-college music performances. The Southern Youth Choir performed at the university’s Anzac Day service.

“I have not sacrificed my music by doing health sciences,” she says. “I have lessons with one of the university lecturers and I bus out to her house for classical singing.”

Lucy has also “accidentally” ended up in the University of Otago cello club.

“While I love science, music is my everything. It is such a good mental break and I have met so many lovely people through music.”

Her commitments to the New Zealand Youth Choir involve travelling to workshops around the country on a regular basis and

she is hoping to cement a place in the group for its European tour in 2019.

While Dunedin is the start of her life as an adult, she does miss her family – mum Carolyn, dad Kerry and brother Matt – and Alex the ginger cat. And as someone who is lactose intolerant, she misses home-cooked meals like steak, eggs and avocado on toast.

Her dairy-free options at university are sometimes sadly limited.

She says students in their last year at Ashburton College should take a good look at every opportunity that presents itself.

“Ashburton College gave me some serious life skills about taking the initiative and time management, and learning how to be a good person. Once you get into the real world there is not so much support.”

She says she is grateful to her parents for helping her get to this exciting point in her life.

“Now I need to be me, but I know they are always going to be there to support me.”

Supporting our local community Come in and see us about our term deposit special for alumni. You will be glad you did.

Many of us who attend Ashburton College realise that certain teachers in particular and the college in general contributed significantly to our lives and success.

As a result, we feel a responsibility to support the school that provided us with so many opportunities so that subsequent generations can have similar opportunities for growth and development.

Most successful secondary schools have a past pupils’ association. The focus is not always on raising money (although that can be important), but also on supporting present day school teams and school activities which can be just as significant for today’s students.

It can often also lead to opportunities in mentoring and other forms of practical assistance and encouragement.

After working in this community for some 40 years, I firmly believe the town needs a thriving college and the college needs strong community support.

Ideally, such an association should have started three decades ago, but better late than never.

The alumni is an exciting way of rekindling friendships from bygone days as well as channelling support back into the school that shaped us.

OUR VIEW

Think, before you vent on social media Matt Markham

EDITOR

I

n this day and age no-one is exempt from criticism.

No matter who you are, where you’re from and what you do, someone is always lurking around the corner ready to attack.

It never used to be that way, but the world of social media has lifted us into a position of security where many of us feel like we can say what we want, about who we want without any fear of retribution.

We joke, we harass and we enjoy a lot more about others’ lives more than we ever have. And, in some cases, that’s great.

Those who in the past might have been pushed around a bit, now have an outlet from which they can defend themselves. And do so without fear of retribution.

No longer do we allow ourselves to be pushed around and we can enforce that from the safety of the computer chair at home without having to worry about copping a right hook in between the eyes.

But it does also create its fair share of problems.

Distinguishing the difference between real life and time in the social media world is difficult for some and they often find themselves in trouble when they step away from the latter to take part in the former.

Words that flow freely through the fingers and on to a keyboard all of a sudden roll freely from the tongue and what is meant to be said in the realm of a safe environment, all of a sudden becomes rather dangerous.

So, we need to be careful. In both instances.

Would we say what we are thinking about writing on the Facebook post to the same person in real life? Or would we confront some face-to-face in the same manner as if we were sitting at home behind the protection of our computer screen?

It just takes a bit of commonsense and a little forward thinking about what the possible outcomes of our actions could be.

If we can manage that, then we will be headed back in the right direction.

What do toothpaste and terrorists have in common?

R

ight, let’s start with a nice gentle intro. Sue Newman, your opinion on taking advantage of cheap airfares being justifiable for taking kids out of schooling is complete and utter bollocks.

My family and I have returned from 10 epic days on the Gold Coast, we travelled at peak times and spent $500 each for return international flights and domestic return flights. All up that was four flights each for an average cost of $125 per flight.

Our family of five also stayed in a stunning two-bedroom, beach-front apartment in Broadbeach – 3km south of Surfers – for a cost of $40 per night per person. These prices are the same as the cost of staying in places like Hanmer Springs and Tekapo.

All other costs such as theme parks, travel and food is the same regardless of what time of year it is. So that’s my intro, now into the madness that has descended upon international travel and that is security and customs!

So when we got to Christchurch we went through our first security check and that’s when the issues began. Our number two child, who shall remain nameless, eh Oliver! decided to bring his torch on holiday. What is the issue with that I hear you ask as you mumble about teachers having holidays while you shivered through a crappy week

Peter Livingstone OUT OF SCHOOL

in Ashvegas. Well Oliver has a torch that is made from the shell casing of a .50 calibre bullet. It is a monster of a bullet with a LED torch in the firing pin end. So imagine his face when we turned back to look at the x-ray machine screen at security, when his carry-on bag came through!

Here was the very distinct outline of one of the biggest bullets you could imagine. We hadn’t even left Christchurch and we were having to answer questions about our intentions in Australia.

Of course I came up with some brilliant ideas of how we could use the torch to search for signs of intelligent life, but I was shut down quickly by my better half.

Well, said torch was then allowed on but we were advised to place it into our checked luggage when we got to Auckland.

We were flying Air Asia and decided to inform the very smiley check-in lady that we were going to put the torch into our large bag.

Imagine her face when we took out the torch to explain what it was! She insisted that

it be placed where it could be found in the checked-in bag and sent said bag to a separate room to be inspected before it was loaded on to the plane.

Now our bag was quarantined in a secure room and we just had to hope it would turn up in Auz. We manged to be reunited with the bag at the end of the flight and thought that’s all we would have to deal with surely.

Nope – toothpaste. Yip, good ole toothpaste, the terrorists’ weapon of choice, came back to bite us. As we were leaving to come home, we got stopped for the toothpaste in our bags. Obviously toothpaste has the explosive qualities of C4. It must be its malleable texture that gives it such an advantage over other explosives. At least when you use it there is the fresh odour of mint afterwards.

Seriously! Toothpaste! How on earth can toothpaste be a banned item? Actually it’s not the actual substance, it is the amount. Anything over 100ml is prohibited. Obviously large amounts of toothpaste is very threatening.

I could imagine the terror as some nefarious character jumps from his seat and brandishes Colgate Total!

Okay, so I asked the very serious Tasmin cousin who swiped our illegal booty of paste, why pick on this stuff. He replied it was classified as a gel. Now my mind started to go on this one.

The average amount of gel a teenage boy smears through his hair is 113ml. That is well above the legal limit for liquids etc on planes. So I came up with a cunning plan for you future travellers.

Take your favourite toothpaste and squeeze it on to your head.

Smear it all around and then you will be safe to take it through.

No-one will want to sit next to you because you smell like Maxfresh with whitening and breath strips.

You won’t need to pack a toothbrush either as you could simply cut some hair off twice a day and chew on it.

So after we had three tubes stripped from us, we went through into the world of dutyfree and other shops. Funny that I could then buy one litre of Baileys and take that on the flight no problem.

As we were walking to the departure lounge we passed a shop that sold books and snacks.

Have a guess what they also had – toothpaste!

Yip, I could have then bought a dozen 100ml packs of the stuff and taken it on to the plane – nuts eh?

As followers of Christ, we are called to pray for our leaders now as we are going into elections and continue to pray for them while they are in government.

This is our Christian responsibility; to pray for our leaders for their wellness in their lives so that they are able to look after the affairs of the nation.

We are to pray for a secure country and safe homes and communities.

As we pray for the elections and the nation, we are also to pray that we may have a faithful parliament so that there is righteousness in the land. We are to pray that our leaders will love the people they lead and take care of the least among us.

Finally, it is our duty to participate in our elections by voting after we have prayed.

White House ‘all-out war’

BY JAMES LAW One of Donald Trump’s most senior staffers has unleashed an extraordinary, expletivefilled tirade against his colleagues as an “all-out civil war” consumes the White House.

Anthony Scaramucci, who was hired as Trump’s new Communications Director a week ago, has been on a crusade against leakers within the administration. On Thursday night, he reportedly called New Yorker reporter Ryan Lizza in a rage.

Earlier that evening Lizza had tweeted that a “senior White House official” told him Scaramucci was having dinner with Trump, First Lady Melania Trump, former Fox News executive Bill Shine and Fox News host Sean Hannity.

“Who leaked that to you?”

Scaramucci asked, according to Lizza.

“I ask these guys not to leak anything and they can’t help

Communications Director Anthony Scaramucci themselves. You’re an American citizen, this is a major catastrophe for the American country. So I’m asking you as an American patriot to give me a sense of who leaked it.”

Lizza says Scaramucci saw the leak about his dinner with the President as proof other White House staffers – particularly Chief of Staff Reince Priebus – were undermining him.

“Is it an assistant to the

President?” he pressed.

Lizza refused to reveal his source.

“OK, I’m going to fire every one of them, and then you haven’t protected anybody, so the entire place will be fired over the next two weeks,” Scaramucci responded.

“They’ll all be fired by me. I fired one guy the other day. I have three to four people I’ll fire tomorrow.

“I’ll get to the person who leaked that to you.

“Reince Priebus – if you want to leak something – he’ll be asked to resign very shortly,” he said.

“Reince is a f***ing paranoid schizophrenic, a paranoiac.”

“What I want to do is f***ing kill all the leakers.

“And I want to get the president’s agenda on track so we can succeed for the American people,” Scaramucci continued.

Earlier that day, the simmering animosity between Scaramucci and Priebus exploded on live TV. Having only been in the job for less than a week, Scaramucci took to cable news channel CNN to air his grievances about White House staffers leaking information to the press.

CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins said the comments exposed an “all-out war in the White House”.

No laughing matter A Kiwi model may have flouted international law by flying on a friend’s passport. Bailey Scarlett – who made headlines in 2015 over claims she was drugged at a party hosted by Justin Bieber – revealed she flew on a friend’s passport out of Kuala Lumpur. Scarlett, who was flying to Australia after a holiday in Phuket, made the admission in her Instagram Story, telling her 43,000 Instagram followers she and a friend “swapped passports for a laugh and got through”. However, using someone else’s passport is illegal under both Malaysian and Australian law. In Australia penalties for passport fraud include 10 years imprisonment.

Brand new Ferrari reduced to smoking ruin A £260,000 ($454,000) Ferrari was reduced to smouldering ruins an hour after it was bought.

Pictures show the remains of a jet black Ferrari 430 Scuderia after it crashed off the side of a motorway and transformed into a fireball.

Police said the driver left the road in wet conditions and slid 50m across a field before the supercar burst into flames near Barnsley, South Yorkshire.

The driver, who escaped with cuts and bruises, said: “It was a Ferrari” with “a hint of damaged pride”, police revealed.

Officers posted two pictures of the wreckage, beside the M1 near Barnsley, on Facebook.

South Yorkshire Police Operational Support wrote: “Afternoon

folks, were you stuck in traffic this afternoon on the M1 south around junction 37?

“If so, here’s why.

“Officers were deployed to a single vehicle collision.

“The vehicle had left the carriageway and burst into flames.

“Road conditions were wet at the time and as officers arrived on scene it became clear there was a vehicle well alight.

“Colleagues from South Yorkshire Fire & Rescue were in attendance squirting water all over some kind of sporty motor 50 or so metres down a banking.

“As we are an inquisitive bunch, we found the driver and were amazed to see he only had minor cuts and bruises!”

A brief glimpse at the top for Amazon founder

the fortunes of the world’s wealthiest people.Amazon.com’s market cap, which is the total value of all its shares, also broke the $500b mark recently, joining other exclusive members of the $500b-plus club such as Alphabet, Microsoft and Apple.

Amazon, which is often referred to as the “Everything Store”, has built on its online retail empire

and pushed more heavily into groceries and apparel in recent quarters.

Investors and analysts will watch its earnings report for signs of success on those fronts.

A cornerstone of its success is its Prime membership programme, in which shoppers pay $99 a year for unlimited two-day shipping on many purchases.

Amazon does not disclose its number of Prime shoppers, but analysts estimate it is about 50 million.

In February, Bezos said that “tens of millions of new paid members” had joined Prime in the past year.

More KiwiSaver funds will invest in private companies in the future because the New Zealand sharemarket is not big enough to take all the new money flowing into the scheme, an expert has predicted.

Booster, which manages more than $1.2 billion in KiwiSaver money, revealed this week it had bought stakes in two wineries in its first move into private company investments.

Typically KiwiSaver funds invest in publicly-listed companies because it is easier to buy and sell shares in the company when they need to.

But Binu Paul, founder and managing director of independent KiwiSaver research firm SavvyKiwi, believed there would be a “huge hunger” from KiwiSaver funds to invest in private New Zealand companies and was surprised it had not already taken off more.

“The reason there is increased

Shares in general insurer Tower took a pounding at the opening of trading on the NZX yesterday morning, falling 29 per cent to 90 cents after the Commerce Commission rejected a merger application at $1.40 a share from rival insurer Vero.

Owned by Brisbane-based Suncorp, Vero sought permission to acquire Tower’s operations after winning a bidding war with Canada’s Fairfax Financial Holdings in a deal that valued

Tower at $236 million. The Vero bid trumped FFH’s offer at $1.17 a share and yesterday morning’s share price is the lowest since February, when the FFH bid first emerged.

“The merger would remove Tower as the only independent competitor to Vero and IAG with the scale, brand strength and experience to compete effectively across the breadth of personal insurance markets,” said commission chairman Mark Berry.

“While there are other smaller competitors in personal insur-

ance, we do not consider that they replicate the level of constraint that Tower imposes.

“Without the competition that Tower provides, there is a real risk that consumers would end up paying higher prices for insurance cover while receiving lower quality, such as reduced insurance coverage,” Berry said.

“There is also a real chance that Tower would be purchased by a third party, further enhancing Tower’s significance as an independent competitor in the market.”

Paul said the downside of private investments was that investors could not get out of them quickly.

But he said most KiwiSaver funds knew the profile of their members and would know when they might need access to funds – such as when an investor turned 65 and could get their money out or might need it to buy their first house.

Another challenge was putting a value on the investment. Unlike shares, which are priced daily on the market private companies were not valued on a regular basis.

Paul said even investing 1 per cent of a fund into a private company would increase the risk taken on, but on the flipside the investment could also do well if the company had the right individuals making the decisions and the right talent.

Alternatively KiwiSaver providers can invest more overseas but Paul said that also had challenges, like currency risk.

Paul said larger funds could run into capacity issues with the local sharemarket where if they continued to invest in companies it could artificially increase the share price disadvantaging the KiwiSaver fund.

Morningstar figures show about $4.5b of the $40b in KiwiSaver is invested in the New Zealand sharemarket through equities and listed property funds.

Paul said most equity funds had the flexibility to invest in nontraditional investments or private companies.

But the funds typically had a limit of about 5 per cent or up to 10 per cent to invest in those type of assets.

Bezos’ rise to No.1 followed a surge in Amazon.com shares ahead of the online retailer’s earnings report due out yesterday.

In brief Bassett makes squad Former Allenton bowler, Cait Bassett was yesterday named in the Bowls New Zealand Development team to play Australia on the Gold Coast in November. Bassett, who now plays out of Christchurch, missed the June test window, but has been recalled into the side and will get a grand chance to impress the selectors in what is the final hit-out before the team is named for next year’s Commonwealth Games which are being held at the same venue.

Mystics re-sign Tutaia The Northern Mystics have confirmed Maria Tutaia has committed to the franchise for the next two seasons, but what level of involvement she will have remains unclear. The Mystics announced the 107-test Silver Fern had signed a two-year contract which “enables her to be rested if required during the 2018 ANZ Premiership in what will be an incredibly busy season for the country’s elite netballers”. It was revealed earlier this week Tutaia was in negotiations to take time off from the sport next year. - NZME

Injury cuts game short

BY JAIME PITT-MACKAY JAIME.P@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

What was set to be the highlight match of the restarting Mid Canterbury Netball Premier competition ended on an unfortunate note on Thursday with a player being taken to hospital.

Round 2 premiers Ashburton College were a facing red-hot Celtic in a must-win match for both sides.

However, the match did not last the full four quarters after AshColl wing attack Meg Witterick fell heavily, striking her head hard on the wooden floor.

The match was halted immediately, with a Celtic coach helping to support her neck and im-

mobilise her until an ambulance arrived, with the umpires and coaches coming to an agreement to end the game with five minutes to go, with Celtic winning 35-25.

Umpire Vicki McArthur said it was the right decision, both medically and for safety reasons.

“We stopped and left her exactly where she was which was the medically correct thing to do, (and while she received first aid) we made the decision between the coaches about whether the game should continue or not,” she said.

Ashburton College coach Angela Mitchell confirmed Witterick had been kept in hospital

overnight as a precaution, but was released in the morning.

“The x-rays came back all clear which is good and now the doctors are just monitoring her for concussion.

“She seemed to be brighter this morning and feeling better, so that is good,” she said.

“Sometimes when you are unsighted and just flying in it can be hard and she just lost her footing and hit the ground hard.”

For the previous three and a half quarters, a large crowd had been entertained by an exciting match of netball, with both sides playing full throttle, high tempo netball.

Celtic were able to open up a substantial lead, but AshColl kept fighting, clawing back points where they could.

In the other matches in the premier grade, Hampstead showed their draw in their last match against AshColl was no fluke, narrowly taking down Methven 29-28.

United were able to cruise to a 13-point victory against Southern, winning 33-20.

In the premier 2 grade, Rakaia beat Celtic B 47-35, while Hampstead B romped to a 42-20 win against Southern B. Ashburton College B rounded off the fixtures with a 35-30 win against Celtic C.

Netball’s rankings for next year’s Commonwealth Games will surprise nobody with hosts and defending champions Australia No.1. The Diamonds top the list ahead of New Zealand’s Silver Ferns. All five Commonwealth Games netball finals have been trans-Tasman affairs. Australia won the first two before the Silver Ferns snared gold in 2006 and 2010. World champions Australia dominated in Glasgow 2014, winning 58-40.

All Blacks centre Sonny Bill Williams will miss the first Bledisloe Cup test against Australia as part of his four-week ban, World Rugby has confirmed. The high-profile midfield back became the first All Black to be sent off in a test for 50 years when red-carded for a shoulder charge on Lions winger Anthony Watson early in the 24-21 second Test loss. Williams received a four-week suspension.

- NZME

with Mt Somers presenting their toughest test, holding the score to a 27-20 win for Southern.

However Southern will have been made all too aware by their big brothers in the Watters Cup that anything can happen, no matter who is considered the favourite.

The match kicks off at 2.30pm,

and will be opened by the Mid Canterbury Combined Schools’ 1st XV, who will play Burnside at noon. The young side have struggled this season, but Burnside should present a very winnable game and is bound to be entertaining with the expansive rugby the young boys like to play.

Ashburton is not missing out

on all the exciting rugby action however, with the MCRU Colts Cup kicking off at 2.30pm, with Celtic hosting Rakaia.

Opening that match will be the U18 Rudstone Cup/Kevin Dwyer Memorial Trophy, which kicks off at 12.15pm at the Celtic Rugby Grounds, with Celtic playing Southern/Hampstead.

Dane Coles is starting but Julian Savea is on the bench as the two All Blacks received contrasting news when the Hurricanes team was unveiled for their semi-final. All Blacks hooker Coles will make his first start in more than four months in what will be his 100th game for the Hurricanes when he leads them on to Ellis Park. The other change sees fit-again Vince Aso back at centre, prompting positional switches out wide.

Jordie Barrett drops to fullback, Nehe Milner-Skudder to the right wing and Wes Goosen to the left wing. Goosen’s retention means powerhouse No.11 Savea drops from the starting side.

Super Rugby semi-final – this time it’s personal

BY PATRICK MCKENDRY Like most sporting grudges, the dislike between the Crusaders and Chiefs, which has become perhaps the pre-eminent rivalry in New Zealand rugby, has its roots in the success of the two franchises, plus a little bit more besides.

Crusaders coach Scott Robertson, in his first year at this level, struck a conciliatory note this week ahead of tonight’s semi-final in Christchurch when he paid credit to the Chiefs’ achievements under Dave Rennie, who will leave to coach Glasgow once this season is over.

But for Rennie there was no such hesitation in telling it like it is.

Asked by Radio Sport’s D’Arcy Waldegrave whether there was “hate” between the teams, Rennie responded with utter honesty.

“That’s pretty accurate, I’d say.

“In the end, they’ve won so many titles and I guess we wanted to really stand up to them six years ago,” he said.

“There have been some titanic clashes. They’re always physical, all the Kiwi games are.

“This will be no different and there’s more on the line. It should be a pretty brutal affair.”

He’s not wrong, and this is why.

Rennie has done an extraordinary job in turning around the Chiefs’ on-field performances since taking over in 2012.

They won their first title that year, and another the year after, and under Rennie they have been a tough, stubborn and difficult side to break down; a bit like their coach.

Since 2012, the Chiefs have viewed the Crusaders as a talented team but one nevertheless that possesses a soft centre.

Stand up to the playground bully, the theory has gone, and the bully will back down, and really, that is probably the best way to approach an All Black-stacked franchise which has won seven titles.

The Chiefs’ success against the Crusaders over the years – they beat the red and blacks in two semi-finals in Hamilton in 2012 and 2013 and have enjoyed a good run

Israel Dagg

since until their defeat to their rivals in Suva this season – has been built on a relentlessly physical approach, one that often stretches the laws of the game.

Rennie’s side are often on the wrong side of the penalty count and in those early years were often criticised for their tactics of holding and tackling opposition players beyond the point of the breakdown.

As for the Crusaders, under previous coach Todd Blackadder they became annoyed at what they perceived to be niggly and cynical tactics from the Chiefs, and in Crusaders headquarters there was disquiet at Rennie’s recruitment practices.

The theory was that the Chiefs took a scatter-

gun approach to signing young players from the Crusaders catchment area – a double-pronged attack that strengthened the stocks in Waikato while depleting those in Christchurch.

The Crusaders built their success in their early years of Super Rugby around taking unwanted players from other franchises and transforming them into world class rugby players – think the likes of Norm Berryman, Norm Maxwell, Ron Cribb, the list goes on, but the luring of promising players either from the Crusaders academy or straight out of school has occasionally angered the southerners.

With so many All Blacks clashing in the sudden death match at AMI Stadium tonight, including locks Sam Whitelock and Brodie Retallick, a new chapter in this rivalry is about to be written.

There will be anger and there might even be hatred.

Required viewing, in other words, for those who like their rugby to be relentless, skilful and, above all, intense.

Cleary makes Packer Tigers’ forward leader

“He’s a completely different man to the one I first met.”

And with those words, Wests Tigers coach Ivan Cleary has anointed Russell Packer his new forward leader.

Indeed, Cleary was willing to pay $NZ213,000 a season more than rival club St George Illawarra for the services of Packer.

It’s a monster deal that seemed nearimpossible when Packer started drinking on the streets of New Zealand at the age of 12, and even more unlikely when he served a 12-month prison stint for stomping the head of a man in a brutal, alcohol-fuelled assault in 2013.

Fittingly though, it was in prison where Packer decided to turn his life around, quitting the drink and vowing to get educated.

Fast forward to 2017 and Packer is studying a commerce degree at the University of Wollongong.

He recently received a Dean’s Award for his outstanding results.

Packer also spends time working with children with disabilities in the Wollongong area, has given up alcohol and taken selfimprovement courses, since being released from jail.

This transformation is why Cleary was so eager to get Packer to the Tigers as his forward leader.

“He’s got a great story.

“It’s a story of hard knocks and coming out the other side, and that will resonate with lots of the boys here,” the Wests Tigers coach said.

“It’s well documented, he’s had his setbacks, but I think he’s a completely different man to the one I first met and even the one I left at the Warriors.

“He’s really changed. He’d be the first to admit that he had to make some mistakes to get where he is now.

“He can actually be a real mentor for some of the young guys here.

“He knows what it’s like to be on the wrong side of things and he’s making up for it now.”

Packer credits much of his transformation to education, which was made possible by the Graduates of League programme.

Weekend Sports Box A look ahead to the sporting weekend, with a glance back over the shoulder at the week that was.

Out and about ...

The last dribs and drabs of the rugby season are wrapping up, so why not head out to Mayfield this Saturday and watch the Mid Canterbury Combined Schools 1st VX take on Burnside High School at noon, before Southern take on Mt Somers in the Senior B final.

Did you know? …

More insanity on the tennis court this week.

John Isner and Nicholas Mahut (The 70-68 Wimbledon Match) played 183 games over three days, which beat the previous record of 112 games (set when there was no tiebreaks for any set) by 71 games.

The punt ...

This week we are looking at things with four wheels and that go vroom vroom. More specifically, the brilliantly named Formula 1 Magyar Nagydíj 2017, or Hungarian Grand Prix for us English speakers. We are going to go out on a limb and back $13 Daniel Ricciardo to win the race. The last time F1 cars were this closely matched, Ricciardo won the race in 2014, before picking up two podium places in the Mercedes dominated years of 2015 and 2016. Come on the Honey Badger.

The gambler ...

This punter must have thought their Multi was dead in the 79th minute of the

Warriors match but David Bowen’s runaway 80th minute try kept it alive and led to a nice collect.

Quote of the week …

“I think we’ve moved on from Benji. I mentioned those young halves before and they are definitely putting themselves in the frame.”

It would appear from David Kidwell’s comments that Benji Marshall’s international career is over, despite his resurgent form for the Broncos.

Reformed bad-boy Russell Packer “I’ve been studying at the University of Wollongong since 2015 and utilising the Graduates of League programme, which has been of huge benefit to me and my studies,” Packer told the Illawarra Mercury.

“Studying while you’re playing, even though it’s hard to juggle, is good because of programmes like Graduates of League that are available to you.

“It’s great opportunity for [players] who want to go to university, the resources there are unbelievable and if you don’t utilise them, it’s kind of on you.

“Just having help, someone to talk to ... it’s a great resource and hopefully all the boys that use the Graduates of League programme fully take on board everything available to them.”

McLaughlin quickest in Supercars practice

By Ed Jackson Supercars championship leader Scott McLaughlin has made a fast start to this weekend’s Ipswich SuperSprint event, topping the timesheets in opening practice.

McLaughlin, who is on a streak of 12 consecutive frontrow qualifying efforts, clocked a best lap of one minute and 09.5760 seconds at Queensland Raceway yesterday.

The New Zealand driver finished ahead of Holden’s Tim

Slade (1:09.6246) and David Reynolds (1:09.7298) in the 45 minute session.

“The car was good straightaway,” McLaughlin told Fox Sports.

“A good start absolutely and we can build on it from there.”

The DJR Team Penske driver goes into the weekend with a six-point lead over Holden star Jamie Whincup in the title standings.

Whincup posted the 12th-fastest time of yesterday’s opening session while

Ricciardo in form Daniel Ricciardo displayed at Silverstone his overtaking abilities and is licking his lips at more opportunities at the Hungarian Grand Prix. The Australian will battle for a fourth-straight podium at Hungaroring on the back of a major mid-Formula One season engine upgrade. Ricciardo heads to the scene of his second career victory ranked fourth in the championship and with strong form after 10 races this year. He secured five consecutive podium finishes heading into the last-start British GP before steering his Red Bull from 19th on the grid to fifth place at Silverstone. Sunday’s circuit is narrower and features shorter straights and more turns.

In brief Mestre sign Kirwan Team Wellington midfielder Niko Kirwan, son of All Blacks great John Kirwan, has signed a professional football contract in Italy. Kirwan has signed with AC Mestre, who play in Italy’s Lega Pro, the third division of Italian football. The Venice-based team were promoted last season. - NZME

Big spend pays off AC Milan’s off-season spending spree paid a quick dividend when new signing Ricardo Rodriguez scored in a 1-0 win at U Craiova in the Europa League qualifying third round yesterday. The Switzerland defender’s 44th-minute free kick from the right flank eluded everyone in the penalty area to find the net. After a three-season absence from European action, Milan’s new Chinese owners have invested around $310 million in strengthening their squad and should advance from the second leg at San Siro next week.

Finally back on the field

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

With persistent rain and school holidays playing havoc on the past few weeks in the footballing season, Mid Canterbury’s footballing sides will be hoping to make the most of this weekend’s games.

In the men’s grade, the MCUFC Seniors will take on fellow Division 2 strugglers Hornby United at Warren Park in what is

a must-win game for both sides.

Should MCUFC win, they would be five points clear of lastplaced Hornby with one game to play.

Down in division four, Methven are playing host to Burwood B, who currently sit four points behind them. Methven have the chance to jump back up to second place depending on CashTech’s result.

In the masters division three,

MCUFC will host the Banks Peninsula Masters.

In the junior grades, MCUFC will be hoping to keep their unbeaten streak in division two alive when they welcome Burwood to the Ashburton Domain.

Third-placed Burwood are the only side to take points off Mid Canterbury after a controversial 2-2 draw earlier in the season.

The 17th grade side will be

hoping a break will have allowed them to shore up their leaky defence when they take on the Christ’s College 2nd XI. Battling away in division one, the MCUFC 15th grade side will face a tough test against thirdplaced CastTech.

In the women’s divison 2, league leaders Mid Canterbury will have a long drive to Kendall Park to take on Waimak Red on Sunday.

Rooney kept quiet Wayne Rooney had a quiet first competitive game at home for Everton in 13 years but The Toffees prevailed 1-0 against Ruzomberok.

“It’s obviously great to be at Goodison wearing the blue shirt, it was a great feeling,” Rooney said.

“But it was an important game for us so I had to put my emotions to one side.” England defender Leighton Baines scored the only goal of the game, a deflected shot in the 65th minute.

Betting ban reduced Joey Barton’s 18-month ban for breaking Football Association betting rules has been reduced to 13 months, the governing body has announced. In April, the FA fined the former England midfielder PS30,000 after he admitted placing bets on 1260 football matches.

■ SQUASH

Midlands interclub squash finals looming The interclub squash competition, run this year under the auspices of Midlands/ Squash New Zealand, is getting down to the sharp end.

There are 47 teams involved in the competition, divided into four divisions, and representing 14 of the 16 clubs in the Midlands district.

Division one has 10 teams, division two is the biggest with 14, there are 12 teams in division three and 11 fighting out for division four honours.

Going into this week’s final round, there are battles galore as teams strive to make the finals, which are scheduled to be played at the Ashburton courts on Friday, August 11, and comprise the top two teams in each division.

Division one sees a close battle at the top, with Ashburton currently on 30 points from Timaru on 29 and Oamaru Blue on 27, with Oamaru White a bit further back on 24.

Timaru and Oamaru Blue are playing this week to establish the second finalist, presuming that Ashburton manages to get past Temuka, currently in fifth spot on the ladder.

Oamaru White has the bye this week so

has no chance of advancing their claims.

In division two Hinds are the runaway leaders and will sail into the final on 143 points.

The drama is in the contest for that sec-

ond berth, with Ashburton Black and Temuka both sitting on 122 points – and those two teams are playing each other on Tuesday night.

Methven is in fourth on 119 points, and

is playing bottom-placed Geraldine, so in theory they have a mathematical if unlikely chance of making the final in that division.

Celtic has been equally dominant in division three of the competition, leading with 50 points from Hinds (42) and Collegiate (40), with Methven C trailing further back on 30 points.

But the second spot in the final is anything but certain.

The Celts are playing Hinds this week, while Collegiate need all the points they can muster against Ashburton Black, who are lying fifth on the table but have the firepower to play the spoiler’s role.

In division four the country teams rule; Mayfield is on 46 points with Methven White not far away on 43.

Temuka comes in at 34 to currently fill third spot with Rakaia on 32.

While that final is already set in stone there will be plenty on the line as far as momentum and confidence go on Tuesday night when Methven White and Mayfield clash in the last round.

Temuka lines up against Hinds Blue, who are down in sixth on the ladder.

In brief

■ TIMARU

Cameron’s Derby dream A stakes test awaits Lord Sibford in the immediate future with an ambitious long-term plan ahead of the rising four-year-old.

The son of Darci Brahma will attempt to complete a hat-trick of wins when he runs in the Goldpine Timaru 1600 on Sunday as a lead in to the Gr.3 eStar Winter Cup on Saturday week.

“I really like him, he keeps stepping up and after every race his attitude improves,” Waiuku trainer Sean Cameron said.

“He just keeps getting better and better and I’d love to see him run in the Singapore Derby next year.

“I’d have to give him away for that, but I’m trying to do the best for my owner.”

Bred by Cliff Matson who has retained an ownership interest, Lord Sibford has been successful in three of his 12 starts and he has been untested to win his last two appearances at Oamaru and Ashburton.

“I’ve got 12 horses down here and he’s got the best constitution of them all,” Cameron said.

“He’s a very mature horse and nothing fazes him.”

While Lord Sibford has a current rating of 72, Cameron

Track trips Art Deco Unsuitable track conditions contributed to the last-start downfall of the smart mare Art Deco in the Listed Opunake Cup. “She didn’t go in the holding ground,” trainer Allan Sharrock said. “She’s having a week off and then she’ll run in an open sprint as a lead-up to the Merial Metric Mile.” Art Deco has won five of her 15 starts to date and her seventh placing at New Plymouth last Sunday was the first time she has failed to return a cheque.

- NZME

Waddell back in action Group One-winning jockey Jason Waddell will return to race-riding next week. The 31-year-old, who was successful aboard Kawi in the Haunui Farm WFA Classic earlier this year, has been side-lined since the autumn. “He had a plate and screws removed from his leg,” his agent Darryl Anderson said. “He’s been back riding trackwork and rode at the Matamata jump-outs.

Jason will ride at the Te Teko trials next Tuesday and then at Te Rapa on Saturday.”

- NZME Lord Sibford pictured in winning form at the Ashburton Raceway. doesn’t believe he will struggle to make the Winter Cup field.

“It’s fallen away a bit and he’s 21 in order at the moment,” he said.

“I don’t think he necessarily

has to win on Sunday to get in.”

Lord Sibford is out of a halfsister to the multiple Group One winner Silent Achiever and Cameron is confident the gelding will excel over more ground.

“He’s a half-brother to Cruiser, who’s won a Stratford Cup, and to Opera Knight who could stay so this horse will be able to get 2000 metres no problem,” he said.

Timaru on Sunday The South Canterbury meeting originally scheduled for Friday will now be run on Sunday. There will be no change to the originally released fields and all scratchings will be re-instated. New times can be viewed at www.nzracing.co.nz.

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): If you’re willing to subject yourself to it for a few hours (most aren’t), boredom has something to teach you. It can be a kind of meditation. You do not seek a sense of space and nothingness; it seeks you.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): One impulsive person will have unpredictable results; two people acting on impulse will be a disaster. You’ll be the grounded force, the voice of reason and the hand of authority if necessary.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): You’ve got a laundry list of desires for the day, but what really matter are safety, health and love. Make those your priority and you can’t lose. Ignore those priorities and you can’t win.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): The big picture will be hard to see. The best vantage is still around a few bends and up a hill. No matter. The thing to do now is make the next move, and the next move after that. It will be enough.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): You don’t usually need a lot of outside motivation, but today it will make all the difference. A good coach or cheerleader will energise you to reach the goal. It’s even worth paying for if necessary.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): You’ll be asked crazy questions and presented with people’s problems as if you were some kind of magic fairy whose job it is to make everyone happy. That’s leadership for you!

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): Just as being upset leads to an overabundance of negative thoughts, bliss brings on more positive thoughts than are warranted. Both states of mind are untrue, but in the latter case, who cares?

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Before you discount your offering as not enough, consider you might be giving it to the wrong person. For someone who knows how to value your contribution, it will be more than they dreamed of having.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): You look forward to the worry-free moments you’ll have to yourself once you’ve handled a big job. Ask for help.

You owe it to yourself to finish this one quick.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Pause to sort out what another person needs and wants. Make no assumptions! Listen more than talk. This will be easy to mess up. Getting it right will be easy too but require better listening skills.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): As an air sign, it’s no fun for you to be grounded when you’d rather be flying. But this can be essential. There are many kinds of growth that are only possible through a process of laying down roots.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): You’ve done quite a lot, and yet, one of the most remarkable things about you is that you don’t let your experience level make you jaded. Today you’ll follow an interest all around the internet, library or city.

ACROSS 7. They go the rounds of artistic products (7,6) 8. A bit of a fling where arms are concerned – legs, too (11) 12. Were Vi thus to pass completely away, she’d be snaky (6) 14. One parasitic sort of cake (6) 16. The sails are what an eight might lead by (6) 18. ‘What ____ heart can gold despise?’(Gray) (6) 19. It’s out of order for one getting between the covers (5-3,3) 23. Willing to risk an escapade? Part! (13) DOWN 1. X-rated work of Rodin’s? (4) 2. Half the beginners indicated by an asterisk (4) 3. One must draw it, even if one has no artistic ability (6) 4. Bids of fresh potential if Hydrogen is dropped (6) 5. Hair cut across the brow may sound explosive (4) 6. Give up to another bit of nice deception (4) 9. Knock up a bargain root that goes to pot (7) 10. Ancestry of the Nile, maybe, taking a long time (7) 11. Festivity’s professional charge includes Tenner initially (4) 12. Choose it to find the gaps between one’s teeth? (4) 13. Where waters are taken in leaving ‘Costa’ country (3) 15. Spied the contents, being crusty (3) 17. Pieces of paper between which sleeper may be found (6) 18. A brotherly establishment to cook a song up inside (6) 19. Handed us every alternate one that puts something on (4) 20. Look short-sightedly for one’s equal (4) 21. An outstanding ornament for the governor (4) 22. Rotten place: commit it to the rubbish-tip! (4)
