Civic centre site decided

Nine Ashburton District Councillors and mayor Donna Favel have cleared the way for a new civic centre and library to be built on land in Baring Square east.

The site was the number one choice for consultants Opus Architecture and survived two rounds of public consulta-

tion. Originally it would have required the demolition of the earthquake damaged Methodist Church but the final deal involves only two lots owned by the church and not the church itself.

While final reports and costings were available last year, a final site decision was held off for the new team of councillors elected in October.

Rather than make a decision when

the project came up for sign-off in February, however, the majority wanted to revisit a two-site option.

This involved delays and a closed doors workshop where all options were explored and costs were examined.

■ RURAL CONFIDENCE SURVEY

Caution urged over confidence

By Colin WillisCroft

Colin.w@theguardian.Co.nz

A Mid Canterbury farming leader has warned against reading too much into a recent survey that says farmer confidence is at a record high.

Rabobank has just released its second rural confidence survey of 2017, which shows net rural confidence is at the highest level recorded since the survey began in early 2003.

The survey shows confidence is up among all sectors, with sheep and beef producers being the biggest movers in terms of changing their outlook.

Rabobank New Zealand general manager for country banking, Hayley Moynihan, said sheep and beef farmer confidence has jumped from plus 9 per cent last quarter to plus 53 per cent this quarter.

“Buoyancy in the pastoral sectors is underpinned by strengthened farmgate returns across the industries,” she said. “Sheep and beef farmgate prices continue to hold steady at strong levels for beef and higher than initially expected for lamb, and lower supply from New Zealand as well as other key export regions will underpin good returns over the coming months.”

However Federated Farmers Mid Canterbury provincial president Michael Salvesen said it paid to exercise a bit of caution when looking at farmer confidence surveys, adding that sentiment could change just as quickly as market conditions, such as exchange rates.

He said while some sectors, such as dairy or sheep and beef, might be doing well overall, there were al-

ways some farmers within those sectors who were not.

On top of that the arable sector, which plays an important role in Mid Canterbury, was one area that was not doing as well as others.

Prices for arable crops were currently pretty low, he said, mainly due to world supply, while the wet weather during last summer’s arable harvest hurt many, particularly those involved with grass seed.

“Specialist crops are high reward but they can also be high risk,” he said.

As for the survey’s finding that an increased number of farmers were looking to invest in their farm business during the next 12 months, Salvesen said that investment could be in a wide range of areas, such as bringing farms into line with increasing environmental restrictions.

Baring Square site confirmed for civic centre and library From P1 Yesterday when the original recommendation came back to the council table, Favel opened debate by giving the site her support.

Three of her councillors were not happy.

In spite of financial information having been publicly available for many months and after two rounds of public consultation, two said they were not well enough informed to support the site recommendation.

If that was the case, councillor Neil Brown said, those council-

lors should abstain from voting.

One, Mark Malcolm heeded that advice; Alasdair Urquhart did not.

He did not attend a recent council workshop on the project but was a member of the last council when the site options and costs were widely discussed. When it came time to vote yesterday, he said he did not have enough facts and figures to give his support.

“Without all the information in front of me it’s hard to make a decision. Making a decision on an assumption is not the way I do things,” he said.

Selwyn Price also voted against the site saying he wasn’t happy with the consultation process.

Peter Reveley was concerned that the council might not net as much as it anticipated from the sale of surplus land that would part fund the project.

“We made a mistake with the art gallery and museum and I hope we don’t make the same mistake again,” he said.

That mistake was an anticipated build cost of $6.6 million, but an actual cost of about $9 million.

Getting to the point of finally

voting on the site had been a long, long process, Brown said.

“Let’s make a decision today.

This is a good site and we need to decide now to proceed with this project.

“We still have to have satisfactory negotiations with property owners and if we can’t do this, then we come back.”

Stuart Wilson supported the site saying that locating the two facilities there would revitalise the town.

“It’ll add to the central business district of this town, it will revital-

ise this part of town – our town,” he said. When the votes were cast and the Baring Square site confirmed, there was applause in the public gallery.

The decision means the council will need to buy two sections owned by the Methodist Church and one at the rear of the old county council building. It has set a deadline of September 30 for negotiations to be completed.

If this does not happen all options will be reviewed, including extending the negotiation deadline.

Local jobs for local students

BY SUE NEWMAN

SUE.N@THEGUARDIAN.CO.NZ

The Ashburton District’s long standing issue around keeping young people in the district once they leave school could lie in the hands of local employers, Ashburton College principal Ross Preece says.

He’s keen to see an initiative developed by Aoraki Development that actively works to have local businesses employ local school leavers, adopted here. ”It’s all focused around keeping local kids employed in town; if a town doesn’t have its local kids in employment it’s on its way to closing down,” Preece said.

While there were many employers who did take on school leavers, there were also many occasions where this did not occur,

he said. The ‘employ local initiative’ was about making students aware of the job opportunities in their own community and about ensuring employers talked to the district’s colleges about those opportunities, Preece said.

“My vision is that local employ-

ers come to us first, that our local students can get employment here – based on them being workplace ready,” he said.

The Ashburton District Council was involved in the Aoraki meeting and Preece sees the council as having a role to play as the link

between the school and employers. He suggested money from the council’s economic development budget could be used to establish the project because of the long term benefits it would bring to the district.

“We also need the council and employers to look at our programmes and say whether we are turning out students who are workplace ready. We need to ask what’s expected by employers. We need to find a way to interact.”

For the transition from school to work to be successful for both students and employers the college needed to ensure its students were well prepared for the workforce, but employers might also need to take potential employees on work placements to smooth the transition and to make sure

they were a good match, Preece said.

When students left town for work opportunities it meant a generation of young people who were lost to the district, he said.

“They’re our best and brightest that might not come back. A project like this is running in Otorohanga and it’s completely transformed the town.”

Ashburton District councillor Selwyn Price was at the Timaru meeting and supports Preece’s call for council support for the employment project.

“From an economic point of view it’s something we need to explore,” he said.

Price suggested the council could have a role to play as an intermediary between the college and employers.

■ ASHBURTON COLLEGE BALL

Clock ticking down to huge night for senior students The hair appointments are booked, the make-up is all ready and the dresses and suits are hanging ready to slip on.

Tonight will see a large number of local students celebrate the night away at the annual Ashburton College Ball at the Ashburton Trust Event Centre.

One of the real highlights of the school calendar for the senior students, the ball is the culmination of months of planning, particularly from the female party-goers, with plenty of time and money invested into the preparations.

But come 7pm this evening, all that will be forgotten as Year 12 and 13 students from the college enjoy their night at the event centre.

It’s the second year the night has been held at the venue after it shifted from its former home at the Hotel Ashburton.

Tonight’s theme takes a combined Starry Night and Secret Garden approach with the student organising committee set to be at the event centre from early this morning to

prepare the venue with all hands on deck.

The ball is open to all students with only bad behaviour and attendance records preventing a student from attending.

Pupils are allowed to invite outside guests who are approved by Ashburton College after a vetting process.

While the ball itself has been drama-free this week, the annual afterball, which follows the ball and is run by an organising committee of parents and isn’t directly involved with the school, has been making headlines after a new zero-tolerance attitude towards BYO alcohol events meant the popular party would be a ‘dry’ event with no alcohol allowed.

Students were given the option of opting out of the event after the news was released to them on Monday and for some time there was concern that without a good amount of support the after-ball would not go ahead.

Students were given until Wednesday to indicate whether they would attend with a strong number choosing to do so.

LEDs lighting up Mid Canterbury streets

By SuSan SandyS

susan.s@theguardian.co.nz

Mid Cantabrians have so far been happy with new LED streetlights despite some residents in other areas having complained about their streets being too dark.

The light-emitting diodes use less energy and last longer than the current high-pressure sodium lights, and ratepayers are set to save hundreds of thousands of dollars as they are rolled out across the district.

Residents of one street in Palmerston North hit headlines this week for being scared to go out at night after LED lights were installed.

Ashburton District Council roading manager Brian Fauth said light from an LED was stronger, but more narrowly focused.

Over the past two years the council had installed the lighting into dozens of streets, spending about $300,000.

It was in the process of applying for a New Zealand Transport

Agency 85 per cent LED subsidy for local authorities this coming financial year, and hoped to roll out the new street lights across the district, costing $1 to $1.2 million.

But the NZTA funding was simply for bulb replacement, and did not include new poles or redesigning to meet lighting standards.

Fauth admitted this could create dark patches.

“If we have problems with that then we will come back in and redesign the light at that point,” he said.

In areas where EA Networks was undergrounding power this would not be an issue as the council could install new poles and redesign to lighting standards.

So far there had been up to dozens of streets throughout Ashburton and other towns which had the new LED lights, and Fauth was not aware of any complaints from residents to date. Over 10 years the lights

could save ratepayers tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of dollars in operational costs.

NZTA said in a press release that a revolution in street-lighting technology was taking hold across New Zealand as 370,000 high-pressure sodium lights lining the country’s roads were replaced with LEDs. NZTA is responsible for state highways and is currently overseeing installation of the new lights on Ashburton’s Alford Forest Road, between Oak Grove and Harrison Street.

Highway Manager Colin Knaggs said 43 new galvanised streetlight columns were being installed by EA Networks with LED street light fittings at a cost of about $200,000.

“As well as delivering significant energy savings, the LED streetlights have a cleaner white light and the new system is more reliable with lower costs for maintenance and replacements,” Knaggs said.

New LED street lights are being installed on Alford Forest Road.

Water bottling plant: Ashburton’s loss is Putaruru’s gain

By Sue newman

Ashburton might have given his proposal the thumb’s down, but ex-Ashburtonian Roydon Hartnett has not given up his water bottling plant plans.

Hartnett’s company New Zealand Pure Blue Springs Ltd has applied for a water abstraction consent to the Waikato Regional Council. The consent sought is to take up to 6900 cubic metres of water a day from the Blue Spring in Putaruru at a rate of 80 litres per second.

The water bottling plant production start date is scheduled for February 2018 although the

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Nine properties in the Ashburton District have been identified as having been built using aluminium composite panels, but all have been confirmed as being the fire retardant version.

Non-fire retardant aluminium panels were used in the construction of the Grenfell Tower in London, that was largely destroyed by fire on June 14 with the loss of at least 80 lives.

The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment has contacted every New Zealand local

authority seeking information on the use of similar panels, to establish the extent of their use across the country.

Council building services manager Michael Wong said that council records showed that at least nine buildings had been built using these aluminium composite panels, but all were fire retardant panels.

As a courtesy the building owners were notified, Wong said but because the panels were fire retardant there were no issues.

“It’s just business as usual for them,” he said.

By Sue newman

sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

full consent will not be utilised until March 2020 when full production is reached.

An economic and social impact report prepared by Business and Economic Research Ltd (BERL) shows the water plant will boost total expenditure in the South Waikato District by $12.2 million. The plant will create 194 full time equivalent jobs. This is estimated to multiply to 483 once the indirect and induced effects of the plant are taken into account.

Last year a deal between Hartnett and the Ashburton District Council for a similar plant to be built on land in the Ashburton

Business Park was abandoned after strong community opposition. This was led by the Bung the Bore group that became the national face of community concern over the sale of New Zealand’s water.

The Ashburton plant would have created more than 100 jobs and was tied to the relocation of Ashburton’s rail siding from town centre to the business estate – at Hartnett’s expense.

When the sale was canned, Hartnett said he would not abandon his plans; he would find another area in New Zealand where it would be welcomed.

■ ASHBURTON COLLEGE

College alumni group expands The Ashburton College Alumni Trust is pleased at the growth of its past pupils network online.

The alumni group was set up last year to keep former students connected to the school; the network includes a website and Facebook page reaching more than 1000 former students around the country and the world.

The group has also employed a co-ordinator to help grow the network further. Eventually it wants alumni to provide tangible support to the school, like the old boy networks of other schools.

The first job of new co-ordinator Linda Clarke, an experienced

journalist who also went to the school, is to grow awareness of the group through telling the stories of past pupils and providing occasions to get-together to remember the good old days.

Alumni trust board member Alister Lilley said the college was an important part of Ashburton town and provided many people who worked in businesses throughout the district.

It was crucial the school retained good links with the community, which could also help provide financial support for special projects, he said.

The community of past pupils

now included those living in Ashburton and those who had moved away from their home town but had reconnected online.

The alumni’s website and Facebook page gives a chance for former students everywhere to keep up with what is happening at the school, Clarke said. It also provided a network to re-connect with former classmates.

Joining is free and open to not only former students of Ashburton College and its predecessors Ashburton High School and Hakatere College, but also to supporters of the school, which may include parents whose children

had attended but they had not.

The college’s 50th anniversary celebrations in 2015 sowed the seed for the alumni group and Lilley said it would be a big boost to the local college if it could call on 137 years of history and former students.

The website and Facebook pages are administered by former student Darion Gray, who runs website design company The West Wing with husband Kieron.

Clarke joined the team recently.

Her role is to keep the school, its celebrations and successes, in front of past pupils through print and social media, the alumni web-

site and more traditional forms of communication, like newsletters.

Clarke is hoping former students will get in touch with the group to tell their own story, or suggest others that she could contact. Old photos of school days past are also welcome.

Current students will be encouraged to join up as they complete their time at college; many will go on to jobs in businesses founded by former college students.

Past students can join the alumni by logging on to www.ashcollalumni.co.nz or going to its Facebook page.

Open homes at the click of a mouse

By Sue NewmaN

Sue.n@theguardian.co.nz

Real estate company owner Trevor Hurley suggests the day of the open home could be numbered when it comes to buying and selling properties.

He’s one of the early adopters of the high-tech marketing tool, virtual reality and believes it will revolutionise the real estate industry.

Rather than buyers viewing dozens of online photos and then doing a round of open homes, the 360 degree virtual reality tool takes buyers on a tour of a house and grounds without leaving their arm chair.

“It’s something that’s big in the States where it saves a lot of time

and money for people travelling between open homes so we’ve decided we’ll incorporate it into our marketing here,” Hurley said.

He believes his is one of very few real estate companies in New Zealand who are using the virtual reality open home tool.

The tours come with two options – touring by computer mouse or the ultimate, walking through a property wearing a virtual reality headset.

Hurley has one staff member now using a headset to show clients a range of properties.

“It means if he has someone at an open home and the property is not quite right for them, they use the headset to walk through other properties and decide

whether they want to view these or not.”

Viewing still photos provided some information, but a virtual tour enabled buyers to get a much better feel for a home, to understand how the rooms linked and to zoom in on specific features, Hurley said.

“This way they can decide if it’s worth taking the time to actually go and see it. They can make an informed decision.”

Hurley and his staff are currently adding the option to properties on their Realestate New Zealand, Ashburton website.

Costs are covered in commission and marketing, he said.

Virtual open tours can be viewed on all devices.

School makes it into EPro8 final

By SuSaN SaNdyS

SuSan.S@theguardian.co.nz

Ashburton Christian School proved its strength in engineering, problem solving and innovation at the EPro8 Challenge at Rolleston this week.

The school was in the top three of 12 of the best Year 7 and 8 teams from the Canterbury region at the semifinal competition.

Mid Canterbury schools which had also made it to the

semifinals but were not placed included Mount Hutt College, and at the Year 5 and 6 level, Wakanui School, Ashburton Borough School and Ashburton Christian School.

Event manager, Wellington engineer Kelvin Thiele, said the competition had been tough.

Competitors had been narrowed down from the approximate 70 schools competing in the first EPro8 for the region.

Ashburton Christian School’s

Year 7 and 8 team comprised Ashton Syme, Gianna Butler, Angus Tsui, Quaid Roche and they will go to the Canterbury final next week.

They had a number of challenges at the semifinal to choose from and went with building an amusement park ride and a pinball machine.

Waihi School and Ladbrooks School were first equal, and in next place was Ashburton Christian School.

Ordered out of Parliament

David Parker

Labour’s long-serving MP David Parker was ordered out of the debating chamber yesterday after a spat with Speaker David Carter.

They clashed when Mr Carter ruled one of Mr Parker’s questions out of order because he considered the issue it covered didn’t involve ministerial responsibility.

Mr Parker compared that with the way Mr Carter had earlier dealt with a government minister.

“I expect fair treatment across the House,” Mr Parker said.

Mr Carter ordered him out.

“That’s a direct reflection on the Speaker of this parliament,” he said.

Cats to be registered?

By DaviD Loughrey A Dunedin proposal that could result in the registration of cats in New Zealand will be discussed nationally.

The proposal from the Dunedin City Council, in consultation with seven other councils, will next month go to a Local Government New Zealand (LGNZ) vote.

If it is successful, LGNZ would make it a policy, and begin lobbying the Government to have it made law.

The proposal could see the Government called upon to develop legislation for cats similar to the Dog Control Act. It already has the support of the Otago Regional Council, one of 78 councils which will vote on the idea.

The proposal came after a series of submissions to the Dunedin City Council, the most recent from the Landscape Connections Trust.

The trust earlier this year made a submission to the council asking for cats to be microchipped.

The call came after the trust developed the Halo Project, a community-run predator control programme surrounding the Orokonui Ecosanctuary.

period getting everything ready, including installing security, new carpet, new cool-room, signs and lighting.

The opening follows the Super Liquor offlicence application attracting opposition from residents concerned about an increase

in premises selling alcohol and a threat to existing businesses.

However, it also triggered a competing outlet to go with a co-operative buying group, so now there are two national liquor chain outlets in the town.

The cost of housing vulnerable Kiwis The Government has put the cost of housing New Zealand’s vulnerable populations for life to an estimated $16.4b – mostly in Auckland – a cost likely to rise along with the cost of housing.

The figure, which has been released as part of the Ministry of Social Development’s first social housing valuation report, is expected to rise.

The current housing market has not only made it harder for people to get into a home on their own, but is set to increase the amount the Government needs to spend on those in need.

The report showed across the past 15 years the chance of someone getting out of social housing has dropped 30 per cent, tenants were older and had been in the system receiving financial support for longer.

About 85 per cent of the projected lifetime cost of $16.4b related to future Income-Related Rent Subsidy payments for social housing tenants and the rest was made of up the accommodation supplement, temporary additional support and other related costs.

A higher share of this cost was

Amy Adams spent in Auckland, the report found.

“Despite comprising only 35 per cent of the population, it represents 61 per cent of the total liability.

Social housing minister Amy Adams said the report set a benchmark to measure the country’s progress and how its initiatives were working to help those in need.

“The valuation lets us measure success by how we change people’s lives. It is part of our broader social investment approach – where we’re building

a better understanding of what works and for who and where to invest funds.”

The report also found those households in social housing at the time the report was compiled were expected to spend, on average, a further 17 years in social housing.

The top five factors contributing to people being in social housing was the cost of the rental market, numbers of people in the family, the age of the primary householder and welfare and benefit history.

“People on jobseeker or sole parent support are about 70 times more likely to apply for social housing than those not on benefits in the last five years.”

Pacific and Maori people remained over-represented in the social housing system, with Maori five times more likely to be in social housing and Pacific people seven times more likely than those of other ethnicities.

Maori were more likely to exit the system as a result of “poor social outcomes” like being evicted, safety concerns, prison or issues of overcrowding.

Australia and New Zealand are the only countries where it operates outside the United States. Users will lose access over the next few weeks, a Pandora spokesperson told Billboard magazine. At least 60 people work in the Australian and New Zealand offices.

Cardinal faces sex charges Cardinal George Pell is facing multiple child sex charges, police have confirmed.

Victoria Police Deputy Commissioner Shane Patton told a media conference in Melbourne yesterday Cardinal Pell had been charged with “with historical sexual assault offences” with “multiple complainants”.

He has been charged on summons to appear for a filing hearing at the Melbourne Magistrates Court on July 18.

“The charges were today served on Cardinal Pell’s legal representatives in Melbourne and they have been lodged also at the Melbourne Magistrates Court. Cardinal Pell is facing multiple charges in respect of historic sexual offences, “ Mr Patton said yesterday.

Police did not reveal the exact charges being faced by the Cardinal.

Mr Patton insisted that Cardinal Pell was being treated in the same way as anyone else being investigated for historical sex offences.

“The fact that he has been charged on summons, we have used advice from the office of public prosecutions and also we have engaged with his legal representatives is common and standard practice. There has been no change in any procedures whatsoever. Cardinal Pell has been treated the same as anyone else in this investigation.”

Cardinal Pell, 76, is Austral-

Australia has no extradition treaty with the Vatican - meaning he could avoid prosecution if he chose not to return to Victoria.

However, he is expected to return to Australia to fight the charges.

He has denied any wrongdo-

ing and rejected media speculation about the nature of the investigation.

Mr Patton said Cardinal Pell had the right to “due process” and have the allegations against him tested in court.

“Preserving the integrity of that process is essential to us all and so for Victoria Police, it is important that it is allowed to go through unhindered and allowed to see natural justice is afforded to all the parties involved, including Cardinal Pell

and the complainants in this matter.”

Cardinal Pell has been in his Vatican role for four years. He was made a cardinal in 2003 and has previously served as Archbishop of Sydney and Archbishop of Melbourne.

News Corp reported last month Victoria Police had received advice from the Director of Public Prosecutions about the allegations against Rome-based Cardinal Pell.

Authorities hunt ‘terrorist attack’ pilot Oscar Perez is a cop, pilot, action movie star and dog trainer. He’s now also a fugitive, accused of strafing two key Venezuelan government buildings from a helicopter in a quixotic attempt to set off a revolt against President Nicolas Maduro.

Authorities yesterday conducted a nationwide manhunt for Perez a day after the government charged that he stole the police chopper and directed grenades and gunfire against the Supreme Court and Interior Ministry in what Maduro called a “terrorist attack”.

No one was injured, and there was no sign of damage at the buildings. But the episode added another layer of intrigue to a 3-month-old political crisis that has left at least 75 people dead and hundreds more jailed or injured in clashes between security forces and protesters seeking Maduro’s removal.

Did Perez act alone? Are other military uprisings in the works? Or was it an elaborate ruse clumsily orchestrated by the government to distract public attention or justify a

A burning barricade blocks a street in Caracas, Venezuela, yesterday.

PHOTO AP tougher crackdown on the opposition?

Julio Borges, president of the opposition-controlled National Assembly, expressed doubts about Maduro’s version of events but cautioned that he and the rest of the opposition were still analyzing what happened.

“There are people who say it was a government-staged hoax, others who say it was real,” Borges said in a radio interview. “Whatever it was, it all points in the same direction:

That the situation in Venezuela is unsustainable.”

Little is known about Perez.

On his Instagram account, he notes his job as a police investigator and tactical helicopter pilot and says his passion is Venezuela.

Sometime Tuesday, Perez posted on his Instagram account a video in which he read a manifesto calling for rebellion. He claimed to speak on behalf of a coalition of renegade members of the security forces.

Eyewitness accounts say the helicopter had hanging from its side a large banner referring to article 350 of Venezuela’s constitution, which empowers Venezuelans to disobey any regime that violates human rights.

“We have two choices: be judged tomorrow by our conscience and the people or begin today to free ourselves from this corrupt government,” Perez said while reading from the manifesto in front of four figures dressed in fatigues and ski masks and carrying assault rifles.

The government accused Perez and others in the helicopter of firing 15 shots at the Interior Ministry as a reception was taking place for 80 people. It then flew a short distance to the court, which was in session, and dropped grenades, two of them against national guardsmen protecting the building.

The helicopter was later found near the coast in Vargas state not far from Caracas, and elite special forces were deployed there to press the hunt, Vice President Tareck El Aissami said.

Adele has confirmed her Wembley shows will probably be her last, telling fans life on the road doesn’t suit her.

In a speech that mentioned her recent record-breaking tour in New Zealand, the pop star told British fans that her fournight stand at the stadium will end her touring days. “Touring is a peculiar thing, it doesn’t suit me particularly well. I’m a real homebody and I get so much joy in the small things,” a handwritten note included in fans souviner programmes said. “I only ever did this tour for you and to hopefully have an impact on you the way that some of my favourite artists have had on me live.

The Castle house for sale As Darryl Kerrigan once said, “a man’s home is his castle”. And now the castle he was referring to in the hit 1997 film The Castle is up for sale. The house will go to auction on Wednesday, July 26 at 2pm. “It’s just the house that’s for sale, it’s not the land,” Rebecca Jones from Brad Teal real estate explained. So how much will Darryl Kerrigan’s castle set you back? “Typically for relocation houses, you’re looking at anything between the $1000 to $10,000 mark which these houses typically go for,” Ms. Jones said.

“But given it is an auction, there are endless possibilities.”

Warhol’s selfie sells for $10m Andy Warhol’s “first selfie”, the painting which catapulted the pop artist to worldwide fame, has been sold at auction for more than $10 million. The work appeared at auction at Sotheby’s in London, 30 years after the artist’s death in New York in 1987. The image was created using a strip of photographs taken in a New York dime store photobooth. Warhol created his first selfportrait in 1963, when he was 35 – and best known for his images of stars such as Marilyn Monroe, Jackie Kennedy and Liz Taylor, as well as Campbell’s soup cans.

Michael Wysolovski (right) was arrested for the abduction of Hailey Burns (left).

He first made contact with Burns online and the pair began a text conversation in which she reportedly called him “daddy”, according to IJR.com.

He also told the teen that he would be her friend.

“He gradually wormed his way into her good graces,” her father Anthony told WBTV Charlotte.

“He coerced her into listening to him and not following our directions and the next thing I knew my daughter wasn’t communicating with me.”

Hailey started acting strangely before she vanished, “using a pacifier and wearing her hair in pigtails”, according to the IJR. “[He] got her in the car,

brought her straight to his house and she pretty much had to stay there the whole time,” her mother, Shaunna Burns said.

Burns was able to escape her captor after she made another online friend – a US student in Romania who eked information out of her and contacted her parents.

Sun set to ‘change form’ – minimum on way tially disrupting communications and navigation systems, and even causing space junk to “hang around.”

The sun follows roughly an 11year cycle.

While sunspots were relatively high back in 2014, they’re now heading toward a low point expected in 2019-2020, according to NASA. “This is called solar minimum,” said Dean Pesnell of

NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, MD. “And it’s a regular part of the sunspot cycle.”

The change, however, doesn’t mean that activity ceases altogether, the expert explains.

Instead, different types of events tend to take hold.

For instance, “during solar minimum we can see the development of long-lived coronal holes,” Pesnell says.

Police in Minnesota saw the funny side when a suspect handed over a Monopoly ‘Get out of jail free card’ to try and get out of trouble.

The Dakota County Sheriff’s Office stopped a man with an outstanding arrest warrant when he produced the Monopoly card. It says: “Get out of jail free. This card may be kept until needed or traded.” But while the Chance card may be handy when playing the popular board game, it’s not so useful to have at your disposal when stopped by police. The Sheriff’s Office responded: “We appreciate the humour!”

R2-D2 sold at auction An R2-D2 droid that was used in several Star Wars films has sold at auction for nearly $3 million. The auction house Profiles in History said the 43-inch tall unit that was compiled from parts used throughout filming of the original trilogy sold for $US2.76 million at an auction yesterday. There was no information about who purchased the droid, which was the most expensive item offered in a movie memorabilia auction that included numerous props from the Star Wars franchise.

Canuck the crow halts postal deliveries Postal deliveries have been suspended in part of a Canadian city after a well-known crow called Canuck attacked a mailman.

Canada Post said it would not resume deliveries at several addresses in East Vancouver “until such time as the hazard no longer exists”.

Canuck is said to have drawn blood after biting a letter carrier.

The bird is known for riding the city’s SkyTrain and stealing shiny objects, including a knife from a crime scene.

Canada Post spokeswoman Darcia Kmet said: “Unfortunately, our employees have been attacked and injured by a crow in that Vancouver neighbourhood while attempting to deliver the

In brief

Teen held captive for a year A 17-year-old autistic girl was subjected to a grim catalogue of sexual abuse and controlling behaviour for a year after she was kidnapped by a 31-year-old man.

Hailey Burns went missing from her Charlotte, North Carolina, home in May 2016 and was found 35 kilometres away in the Duluth, Georgia, home of Michael Ren Wysolovski on Saturday.

The teen, who has Asperger’s Syndrome, was “confined in an upstairs bedroom and told she’d be arrested if she left,” a warrant claims.

In the year she was held captive, Wysolovski would sometimes withhold food from Burns until she performed oral sex on him, the warrant says.

He also made her keep a diary counting the number of calories she consumed each day, and would refuse to feed her the next day if she ate over a certain amount, according to the warrant seen by the Gwinnett Daily Post.

Wysolovski has been booked on felony counts of aggravated sodomy, child cruelty involving first-degree deprivation, interference with custody and false imprisonment.

“We are monitoring the situation when delivering the mail to other residents on the street. If our employees believe it is safe to deliver to those three addresses, they do so.”

Shawn Bergman, who maintains the Facebook group, Canuck and I, which chronicles the crow’s exploits, said the bird had repeatedly attacked a Canada Post worker, causing broken skin and bleeding.

Shortly afterwards letters stopped arriving at his home and two adjacent properties.

He wrote on the Facebook group that it has been about two

“With the neighbours getting upset, there have been both subtle and not so subtle threats against Canuck’s safety,” he

writes. Mr Bergman received a response from Canada Post that said: “We are safeguarding our employees by not delivering to areas where the crow has been known to attack until such time as the hazard no longer exists.”

Canuck’s anti-social behaviour has even stooped to crimescene tampering.

In May 2016 he swooped to steal a blade that had allegedly just been used to threaten police officers.

One of the constables gave chase and the bird dropped the vital piece of evidence before making his getaway.

Carefree living in luxury

BY SUE NEWMAN

A

shburton is about to welcome a new lifestyle option for seniors.

On Sunday the Lochlea Resort Village opens the doors to its new assisted living apartments and resort manager Tony Sands says he’s keen to welcome the community to what will shortly be home to 19 individuals or couples.

No expense has been spared in building the apartment complex. Each unit comes with its own private balcony that ensures rooms are flooded with light.

There are views of the mountains from first level units while ground floor properties have views across gardens and reserve land.

The upper level is accessible by lift and the apartment complex is accessible from Millstream Radius rest home and hospital via a covered walkway.

Each unit is one bedroom and all are similar in layout, but vary in size. There is a central lounge and kitchen on the ground floor where owners can socialise.

Carpets and drapes are high quality and have been kept in neutral tones to

ensure owner’s furniture will look right at home, regardless of style or colour, Tony said.

As work on the apartments progressed, inquiries began to flow into the resort’s office and he anticipates deals will follow once potential residents and their family have had an opportunity to see what’s on offer.

The apartments are sold under a licence to occupy which gives owners the right to live in that apartment for life.

They are able to enjoy all the benefits of the resort lifestyle, including the central lodge. The lodge has a spa, heated swimming pool, gym, bowling green, library, snooker table, putting green, petanque piste and a croquet lawn.

Services available to lodge and villa residents include an on-site hairdresser, podiatrist, physiotherapist, massage therapist, beautician and access to exercise advisors.

Apartment owners pay the same service fee as villa residents and this covers rates, insurance, use of the resort bus, security patrols, rubbish removal, repairs and maintenance, and electricity and gas for the lodge.

our apartment will become your new home, a place where you can welcome friends and family as visitors. With you, they will also be able to share in the amenities the village offers, including the wide range of recreational facilities available in the lodge, or on the bowling green or croquet lawn.

While your new apartment will become your home, no pets are allowed.

Once you move in with your own furniture you will have the assurance that other than your weekly fee, there will be few additional expenses to meet.

Things you will have to pay for, however, include your telephone, SKY and contents insurance. You will also be responsible for the interior maintenance of your new home.

One thing that is different to owning your home in the community is that you cannot rent or lease out your apartment, it is for your occupancy only.

When you go on holiday, however, you will be free from worrying about looking after the property.

Lawn bowls is just one of the many activities on offer to residents in the Lochlea assisted living apartments.

This will be done for you by the Lochlea team. The only thing you need to do is to let them know you are going to be away and how long for.

One of the benefits of apartment living is the 24 hour emergency facility.

All apartments are equipped with an emergency call system which is connected with a staff member on duty.

Owning an assisted living apartment A partments are owned under a licence to occupy.

This gives the owner the right to live in their apartment for the rest of their life and to enjoy all the common facilities of the village.

They pay a weekly fee that covers rates, insurance, rubbish removal, repairs and maintenance and use of the resort bus. This fee is determined annually and increases to existing residents are limited to a formula based on the annual consumer price index.

When a person is no longer able to continue living in their apartment it is sold and from the sale proceeds a village contribution is payable.

There are no hidden fees and the guarantee for buyers is that they or their family will receive a minimum of 75 per cent back on the purchase price of the property when it is sold.

One of the big features of buying an apartment is the ability to access care

as required from Radius Millstream.

Apartment owners must buy a basic support package at time of purchase.

This includes lunch served in the dining room, seven days a week, one hour of housework per week, sheets changed once a week, two bags of laundry each week. There is, however an onsite laundry that residents can use.

Currently, with the weekly fee of $135 living in the apartments with the basic care package will cost $298.88 per week.

Residents are also able to buy in additional meals and care as required.

Apartment residents are granted priority access to the care facility Radium Millstream if the time comes when they are no longer to live on their own.

If you move into your new apartment and change your mind within 90 days, then your money will be refunded.

Completing the dream W

hen Les Briggs bought a large block of land off Racecourse Road he had one dream in mind, to build a lifestyle resort for the over 60s, a place that could see residents remain in one village for every stage of their retirement.

On Sunday, eight years later, he’s realised that dream as visitors and potential buyers walk through the doors of the Lochlea Assisted living apartments.

Along the way Les has watched the 138 section Lochlea residential subdivision grow, has seen 79 independent living villas built and sold in the Lochlea Resort and a multi-purpose lodge that is the heart of that village fulfil its destination as the hub of the gated community.

Last year the second last piece in the Lochlea project was completed when Radium Millstream aged care facility opened its doors and on Sunday the final act plays out when the assisted living apartments open for business.

“I’m delighted to get it to this point and this completes the major part of the project,” Les said.

Friday, June 30, 2017

Les Briggs, the man behind the Lochlea Lifestyle Resort, when the complex was just a dream.

While the villas continue to be a work in progress, with 79 built and sold and another 27 on the drawing board, the large complexes such as the hospital and apartments are major projects in themselves, he said.

And while there’s still work to be done, Les said he’s enjoying taking stock and looking at what has been achieved by a large team of people over a relatively short number of years.

“For years I’d recognised we needed a village like this but there was never a decent sized block of land available.

When we bought this we decided to dedicate half of the site to the village and started work four and a half years ago.”

Like any large scale project Lochlea has come with headaches and challenges, particularly the amount of red tape that has had to be worked through, Les said.

Ashburton Guardian 15

“It’ll all even out and be viable in the end, but we’re still running at a loss. When you build a village like this you don’t expect to make a profit, you expect to break even, but it’s an investment in the community. It’s a long term project where the major benefits will come in 10 years’ time.”

The village’s hospital and aged care facility Radius Millstream opened last year and Les said rooms in the hospital and rest home wings and the dementia unit are almost full.

The new apartments will now bridge the gap for people who no longer want to live independently in their own home but who are not ready to move into full care, he said.

“They’ve been an expensive build but at the end of the day they’re great.

The views are wonderful and there’s plenty of life going on around them for people to look at. No one who buys in here will feel they’re locked in.”

The assisted living apartments open day will run from 11am to 2pm on Sunday, July 2.

Evoking a legend

S

itting here putting pen to paper, or to be more precise connecting fingers with the keyboard, the thought occurs that this story will be published on the last day of the first half of the year.

A year which seems to be passing extremely quickly.

When time passes so quickly it can seem scary, or on the other hand it means that things we look forward to come around sooner.

Like Christmas, which is now less than six months away.

Or, for this writer in the shorter term, much anticipated monthly visits to see friends at Park Street Day Care.

One of those pleasant occasions occurred last week and there was a really interesting discussion about the movie McLaren – and of course the truly iconic Kiwi Bruce McLaren who the movie is all about.

Some of the folk at Park Street recalled seeing Bruce McLaren in his heyday racing at places like Wigram.

A couple of days later one of the carers from Park Street, Jenny Heath, she being the same Jenny who readers will remember was brought home from the maternity ward in a Triumph Mayflower, sent an email saying look what I’ve just discovered.

It was a poem about the tragic day when Bruce McLaren died at the wheel of a racing car he was testing.

Now among her many interests Jenny is a bookworm.

To quote her “I’m a bit naughty, I buy books and I like books, second-hand books”.

Last week Jenny found The Country Bloke and Other Verse in a local op shop.

Just a day after we had talked about Bruce McLaren Jenny was intrigued to find the poem about him on the first page of her new literary acquisition, for which she had outlaid the princely sum of $2.00, making it a great buy.

And what a coincidence it contained the poem.

The book is a compilation of verses writ-

Bernard Egan MOTORING

ten by Ross McMillan, aka Blue Jeans.

Having lived all his life in the Naseby District, Ross McMillan has seen and experienced most aspects of high country life.

After trapping rabbits as a schoolboy he moved on to mustering, shearing and horse breaking before settling into farming the family property in partnership with his brother and then with his son.

Ross began writing about 1960, resulting in over 450 poems being published in the Central Otago News and many being set to music by various musicians, including Dusty Spittle, Phil Garland and Jack Denley.

Aside from farming Ross is a familiar face on cavalcades and curling rinks.

Riding horses and playing the “roaring game” are among his favourite pastimes.

And in case readers are wondering the “roaring game” is a nickname for curling, a team sport played by two teams of four players on a rectangular sheet of ice.

The nickname originates from the rumbling sound the 44-pound (19.96kg) granite stones make when they travel across the ice.

There are several interesting terms and names associated with the sport, another being Bonspiel, which is a curling tournament, consisting of several games.

But getting back to Day Care and things we talked about, the writer was asked about recent driving experiences and he was delighted to talk about motoring into the country to join members of the local Farm Forestry Association on a Fieldday when they visited two very interesting properties.

One was the Harris Scientific Reserve, which is on land set aside by the late Arthur Harris to protect remaining ancient kanuka.

Because of her incredible knowledge Edith Smith, a member of the trust which administers the Reserve, was able to explain the history of the Reserve and give us descriptions of the plants being nurtured.

From there we drove to the wetland established as a millennium project by Russell Langdon who related the fascinating story behind the sanctuary he has established.

In one sense these two properties could hardly be more different – the Harris Reserve is on very dry land, the other as the name indicates is wet land with a high water table.

But those differences apart the properties have things in common, they have been established and are being looked after and developed by people keen to protect our environment and they are both living museums.

They are special places to visit and of course from a motoring writer’s prospective they offer the added pleasure of getting there by driving along good roads through interesting country right on our back doorstep.

Ten days have passed and passed quickly since we chatted at Park Street Day Care.

And at this rate it won’t be long until it’s time to go back again.

Can’t wait and can’t help wondering what the topics of conversation will be and whether Jenny has bought another book.

Her purchase of Blue Jeans’ book has acquainted us with a clever Kiwi poet, who given his background, may not have been expected to compose a verse about a racing driver.

But the fact he did is another reminder the late Bruce McLaren is a true Kiwi legend.

McLaren name will live forever in the motor racing world

B

ruce Leslie McLaren (August 30, 1937–June 2, 1970) was a New Zealand race-car designer, driver, engineer and inventor.

His name lives on in the McLaren team which has been one of the most successful in Formula One cham-

pionship history, winning a total of 8 constructors’ world championships and 12 drivers’ world championships.

McLaren cars totally dominated CanAm sports car racing with 56 wins, a considerable number of them with him behind the wheel, between 1967 and 1972 (and five

Constructors’ Championships), and have won three Indianapolis 500 races, as well as the 24 Hours of Le Mans and 12 Hours of Sebring.

Bruce McLaren died (aged 32) when his Can-Am car crashed on the Lavant Straight just before Woodcote corner at Goodwood

Circuit in England on June 2, 1970. He had been testing his new M8D when the rear bodywork came adrift at speed.

The loss of aerodynamic downforce destabilised the car, which spun, left the track, and hit a bunker used as a flag station.

RapidE - it’s electrifying

L

ess than two years after being unveiled as a concept, Aston Martin has confirmed that the all-electric RapidE will enter production in 2019.

Set for a limited production run of 155 cars, RapidE is Aston Martin’s first allelectric model.

The RapidE spearheads development of the brand’s low and zero-emission vehicle strategy laid out by Aston Martin’s President and CEO, Dr Andy Palmer, in the company’s Second Century Plan.

Development, testing and production of the RapidE will continue under a collaboration agreement between Aston Martin and Williams Advanced Engineering – the advanced technologies side of the Williams Formula 1 team – who worked on the original RapidE Concept.

“RapidE represents a sustainable future in which Aston Martin’s values of seductive style and supreme performance don’t merely co-exist alongside a new zeroemission powertrain, but are enhanced by it,” said Aston Martin President and CEO, Dr Any Palmer.

Based upon the forthcoming Rapide AMR concept, Aston Martin say the RapidE will feature four-door sports car looks and the dynamics of the Rapide S powered by an all-electric powertrain, replacing the six-litre V12 engine.

“The internal combustion engine has been at the heart of Aston Martin for more than a century, and will continue to be for years to come.

“RapidE will showcase Aston Martin’s vision, desire and capability to successfully embrace radical change, delivering a new breed of car that stays true to our ethos and delights our customers,” said Palmer.

Paul McNamara, Technical Director at Williams Advanced Engineering said Wil-

liams Advanced Engineering has always endeavoured to work collaboratively with its customers to meet sustainability challenges and find energy efficient motoring solutions.

“For today’s car manufacturers, this

is particularly important as legislation demands more energy efficient vehicles,” said McNamara “This project with Aston Martin will draw on the extensive battery and EV experience we have accumulated and we

are extremely pleased to be supporting this prestigious British company with their future electrification strategy.”

More information will be revealed about the RapidE’s all-electric powertrain towards the end of the year.

New S90 is a Swedish mythbuster

S

afe. Boring. Boxy.

If you’re old enough to remember ABBA and Bjorn Borg, then you’d also recall those three words being a perfect description of another Scandinavian icon – Volvo.

The Swedish-built cars made a big impression back in those days, but not always for the most flattering of reasons.

Sure, they were safe.

Among the safest vehicles on the road.

Sensible, too.

And practical.

Not to mention well built.

After all, the squared-off, boxy designs that characterised several generations of Volvos had to have some advantages. And safety, space and practicality were the pay-off.

The downside was the image of Volvo drivers as hat-wearing, slow-moving, riskaverse bank clerks and retired quantity surveyors.

So unflattering was the company’s image that they even launched an advertising campaign about “bloody Volvo drivers” – trying to draw attention to their evolving range of more modern, more funkylooking vehicles.

Well, it’s fair to say the perception of this most famous of Swedish brands (with apologies to ABBA and IKEA) has come full circle.

Three new models that sit at the top of the Swedish maker’s range all reinforce the “new” Volvo – sleek, stylish and thoroughly

modern. The anti-Volvo if you like.

And perhaps the sleekest of all is Volvo’s new luxury sedan, the S90.

It’s complemented by an equally sharplooking wagon (the V90) plus, of course, the obligatory SUV variant – in this case the highly impressive XC90.

It’s fair to say the S90 puts an exclamation point on Volvo’s journey from boring to beautiful.

It’s big, handsome and innovatively finished. Like the XC90 it reimagines cockpit design to a certain degree, and it lavishes its occupants in style and comfort.

The S90 looks just as it should – a crisp-

ly-designed, well-equipped and dynamically impressive European luxury sedan.

While its pricetag (from as little as $79,990) puts it into competition with executive sedans like BMW’s new 5 Series, its dimensions and interior space are probably closer to the next rung up the luxury ladder – territory ferociously guarded by the likes of Audi’s A8, Benz’s peerless SClass and the 7 Series Beemer.

The Volvo has a foot in both camps, which is good news for buyers.

Like the XC, the cockpit is styled around an iPad-style centre touch-screen – with the same swipe-driven navigation as an

Apple tablet – to access all but the most basic cabin functions.

Climate control still has its own buttons, as does the premium audio system (provided by Bowers and Wilkins) – but the intuitive, well thought-out screen in the centre of the dash is the quickest and easiest way to access most other services.

And the list of app-style functions is long, including not one but two self-parking functions; internet access with links to music sites Spotify and Pandora; live weather and traffic alerts and all manner of clever cockpit functions.

As you’d expect, safety remains high on Volvo’s agenda – the company has stated publicly its aim that, by 2020, nobody should be killed or seriously injured in a new Volvo model.

To that end, the S90 moves closer to autonomous driving with its Pilot Assist system that will steer the car itself at highway speeds as well as keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in front.

The same system delivers a Run-Off Road Mitigation feature that detects a possible departure from the road and gently steers you back to safety.

As mentioned earlier, that interior space – and cargo space – is more comparable to a full-sized European limo. Not surprising, I suppose, since this is the vehicle of choice for Sweden’s Royal family and senior political leaders.

Not to mention ABBA and Bjorn Borg, of course.

In brief

■ LABOUR POLICY

Shareholders to vote

Sharing the wealth The Labour Party says it will lift the minimum wage, make trial periods fairer, and set minimum pay standards for each industry if it comes into power in September.

The party released its industrial relations policy yesterday, saying it would ensure that working people received a greater share of New Zealand’s economic growth.

Labour leader Andrew Little said that despite a growing economy, two-thirds of New Zealanders’ wages had not kept up with living costs.

His party is promising to lift the minimum wage by 75c an hour to $16.50.

Depending on economic conditions, it wants to eventually lift the minimum wage to two-thirds of the average wage.

The average wage is set to rise to about $30.60 next year, meaning Labour wants to lift the minimum wage to at least $20 over time.

The party will also roll out a living wage for all core public sector workers at a cost of $15m, and will eventually extend it to all contractors.

The living wage, based on the amount needed to keep up with basic necessities, is $20.20 an hour.

Labour also wants to introduce Fair Pay

Agreements, which set a sort of minimum standard for pay and conditions within each industry.

Little said: “These will stop bad employers from undermining wages and working conditions to undercut good employers.

“Fair Pay Agreements will lay out the basic pay and working conditions in an industry, and prevent a race to the bottom.”

He cited the recent pay equity settlement for care and support workers as an example of how companies and workers could cooperate to set base conditions and pay.

To keep a check on employers, the number of Labour inspectors will be doubled to 110, at a cost of $4m.

Labour has dropped its 2014 policy of repealing 90-day trial laws. It will keep trial periods but will give employees recourse if they are unfairly sacked during this time.

It will establish a “referee service”, which has power to reinstate workers or award damages up to a capped amount.

It will not involve lawyers and resolution must be quick, the party said.

Little said most employers used trial periods fairly, but the 90-day laws had encouraged abuse by a small number of businesses.

- NZME

GeoOp, the unprofitable management app developer, will ask shareholders to vote on its plan to de-list from the NZAX and list on the ASX with an initial public offering in Australia and New Zealand. Shareholders will vote at the meeting on July 14, GeoOp said yesterday. It would issue between $A3 million and $A6m of new shares for between 17 cents and 19.5 cents per share.

Risk appetite improves The New Zealand dollar rose on improving global risk appetite after hawkish comments from a raft of central banks and after all major US financial institutions received approval from the Federal Reserve to ramp up dividend payouts and share buybacks. The kiwi traded at 73.18 US cents as at 5pm from 73.09 US cents as at 8am and from 72.76 cents on Wednesday. - NZME

New football app A trio of football mad Kiwi entrepreneurs have launched a crowdfunding campaign in hopes of creating the largest football community in the world. The app is set to target the 300 million football players from amateur clubs across the world.

ON THE MARKETS

Fonterra announced a lift in this season’s farmgate milk price of 15 cents per kilo of milksolids taking it to $6.15.

The company also announced the opening forecast for next season at $6.50 per kilo of milksolids.

The Reserve Bank of New Zealand has kept the official cash rate on hold for the quarter and, after the June statement, we are expecting this to remain the case through to at least next year, with the statement saying that monetary policy will remain accommodative for a considerable time.

First quarter GDP was released during the quarter and was lower than expected, however the outlook for growth is positive and expectations are for second quarter GDP to be stronger.

The New Zealand dollar gained strength during the quarter, with the trade weighted index increasing almost 3 per cent.

The kiwi strengthened against the Aussie dollar and at 95 cents, is near where it started the year.

The NZ dollar gained further strength against the greenback, now sitting at 73 cents, and the British pound, now close to 57 cents. For the quarter, we have lost some ground against the euro.

Offshore, it has been a tough quarter for the Australian index,

with plenty of market moving events keeping investors on their toes.

Although the ASX200 looks set to finish in positive territory for June (at the time of writing was up 1.5 per cent), it looks set to finish the quarter slightly lower.

The energy sector has been the weakest performer for the month on the ASX as it has been on numerous other markets, as oil prices reached their lowest level for the year during June.

Brent Crude prices dropped to below $US45 a barrel, the lowest it has been since November last year.

Fears of a supply glut have been the driving force behind the declines, as inventory levels in the US have continued to grow despite OPEC implementing a production cap.

The US S&P500 has risen for the month, up more than 1 per cent, and is up more than 3 per cent for the quarter.

Political issues have continued to dominate news flow from the US with President Donald Trump continuing to cause controversy.

The FTSE 100 in the UK has fallen in June, however after a very strong May, looks set to finish the quarter in positive territory, but only just.

The British election threw up a surprise for markets when the incumbent Conservative party lost the majority in Parliament.

The market week in review his week marks the end of June and the end of the second quarter of the year, providing us with a great opportunity to take stock of the events of this month and how markets have performed.

Starting with the NZX50, June has been a very positive month for the kiwi index, up more than 3 per cent at the time of writing.

This is the sixth consecutive month of gains for the index and is the biggest monthly gain of the year. For the quarter the index is up 6.3 per cent, a slightly better performance than in quarter one.

The top performer for the month and the quarter is the a2 Milk Company, which is up more than 19 per cent for the month and 35% for the quarter. Air New Zealand follows closely, up 15 per cent for the month and 34 per cent for the quarter.

SkyCity is the weakest performer for June down more than 7 per cent while Comvita is the weakest for the quarter, falling more than 30 per cent following the discovery of Myrtle Rust in New Zealand.

Economic highlights from the quarter include migration, which continues to set records and remains a talking point for the New Zealand public. Migration hit a new record high in May with net migration hitting 73,300 for the month.

Dairy prices have increased substantially this year and have been particularly strong this quarter rising almost 12 per cent.

During the quarter there have been six auctions, and all but one saw a rise in dairy prices.

EA centre, councillors need to listen Matt Markham

ACTING EDITOR

W

hile news of some changes out at the EA Networks Centre are most welcome, it would appear as though the decision-making process doesn’t take into account what the Ashburton community would like to see at the leisure centre.

News broke last week of the potential for an ice rink and a climbing wall as the most likely candidates for development on the site.

Both would be wonderful additions to an already-thriving operation.

But it would appear the public still have something else higher on the wishlist if a poll conducted by The Guardian is to be believed.

More than 200 people voted on the poll which asked readers to vote on which of five options they would like to see be the next addition to the EA Networks Centre.

A climbing wall, ice rink, extra covered courts, more pools and a waterslide were the five options given and there was an overwhelming winner.

More than 50 per cent of those who voted wanted a waterslide to be the next instalment – a demanding statistic.

Of course, the waterslide debate has raged almost from the outset of the centre opening and the Ashburton community has spoken passionately about it in many forums.

Surely now it is time for both the EA Networks Centre management team and members of the Ashburton District Council to perhaps take another look at their options, because while an old chestnut, it’s a chestnut that doesn’t seem to want to go away.

With plans in place to rectify current issues around carparking at peak times and the airconditioning within the facility, particularly the swimming side of the building, now would be as good a time as any to get the public fully back in support of the venue and move forward in a positive manner by providing a service which a good majority of the local population seem to want so much.

At the end of the day, you can do 100 new things, in 100 new ways, but if you don’t listen to what people are asking for, you might as well not try at all.

oday marks the end of our week-long poll in relation to potential additions to the EA Networks Centre.

The response from our readers has been massive with a large number of votes being received through the poll on www. guardianonline.co.nz.

It would appear the general consensus is still for a waterslide to become the next major project at the thriving venue, although there was strong support too for the ice rink. Surprisingly, the climbing wall was one of the least favoured options, gaining less than 10 per cent of the vote.

hile the stories flood in of Emirates Team New Zealand’s success in reclaiming the Auld Mug, spare a thought for Jimmy Spithill.

Now I feel like I am very much in a slim minority here, but I kind of feel sorry for the guy.

Even before the cup proper had started, I feel like he commanded a huge level of respect.

A master sailor and one of the best s**t-talkers in the world of sport.

His mastery of the microphone is a level above any major sporting figure, past or present.

To have the proverbials to chirp, chip and slander away at Team New Zealand when they were eight races up at the last America’s Cup was incredible.

But for me, the most endearing thing about Spithill is not the way he wins, but the way he loses.

After the final race in this year’s America’s Cup, Spithill did not use his media time to make excuses or hide, he fronted.

He showed his humility in congratulating Team New Zealand, acknowledging how hard it must have been for them to recover from the humiliating defeat in San Francisco four years ago.

Oracle Team USA skipper Jimmy Spithill is consoled by Larry Ellison (centre) following his team’s loss to Emirates Team New Zealand in the America’s Cup this week.

PHOTO AP “It’s no secret – [Team NZ boss] Grant Dalton and I don’t usually see eye to eye, but what an incredible effort to come back from something like that and get it done,” said Spithill.

“As bitter as it is for me to lose this cup, man, I feel happy for Glenn and those guys to face those demons and pull it off.”

These comments do make it

hard to stomach some of what Grant Dalton has said after the win.

Dalton took the opportunity to verbally hack and slash his way through everyone from Spithill to former Team New Zealand captain Dean Barker.

Those actions certainly divided opinion in the past week, but I say fair enough. This is a

sporting event with so much on the line, and one that only comes around every four years, so why shouldn’t the contestants be allowed to try and get every advantage possible, even if it is purely mental.

A lot of sport is mental, and that includes being able to lose.

So despite losing 7-1, Jimmy Spithill is still a winner to me.

Why buy to knock down perfectly good buildings so we can rebuild new council chambers and library?

Surely there is more than enough land on the existing council site to build both the council chambers and the library with lots of parking space.

Our council alcohol licensing officer was already present, stirring an uncomfortable presence to club members.

I asked for a drink for my wife and I as we waited and was utterly stunned to be told by a very embarrassed bar member that I couldn’t buy the bottle of beer as I was not a Celtic member. Not even parents of a playing team, invited into the host’s club, seem to cut it.

Please council, where is your logic here, just give me a sniff of something to ponder over or to consider your reasoning on this one.

In brief White Ferns rained out The White Ferns’ World Cup cricket match against South Africa in Derby has been abandoned.

Heavy overnight rain and persistent morning showers saw the match called off just after two o’clock local time, without a ball being bowled. Each side takes a point from the fixture and temporarily go joint top of the pool-play standings on three points after two games. New Zealand lead on a superior net runrate.

Pay deadline looms Cricket Australia boss James Sutherland has returned home from England, with the deadline to settle the pay dispute looming.

The existing Memorandum of Understanding expires today, with CA and the Australian Cricketers Association yet to broker a new agreement beyond that date.

Sutherland was in England for an International Cricket Council conference and to watch Australia’s first match in the women’s World Cup. There have been calls for him to get directly involved in trying to break the impasse.

Consistency key for Ko World No. 3 Lydia Ko is searching for consistency going into the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship.

Addressing the media ahead of the second women’s golf major of the year, Ko said she had been working hard on consistently getting herself into good positions.

“I’m working hard to keep consistently putting myself in positions, no matter what ranked

player you’re in, you can always get better, and I think that’s the great thing about golf.

“So that’s what I’m going to keep doing.”

After spending 104 weeks at world number one, Ko dropped to third in the world.

But her focus isn’t on getting back there.

“I’m trying to stay positive and to me I’m thinking about how I

can be more consistent and put myself in contention rather than thinking about I really you know want to be the number 1 ranked player again.”

Ko who came second in this tournament last year, said that the course is looking beautiful and it should be a very exciting week.

“The course is in amazing condition.

“It’s like there’s no wrong piece of grass, you know in the wrong place.

“The vibe is great.

“You know yesterday with the showcase and the skills challenge we got to see a lot of juniors out here so I think that was kind of a preview of how many people are gonna come out and watch us play and it should be a very exciting week.”

Warrior Vete focused on performance

By Dale BuDge Warriors prop Albert Vete is playing for a contract at the moment but he is determined not to let that have an adverse effect on his football.

The 24-year-old is off-contract at the end of the season and is in negotiations with the Warriors about extending his stay.

At present no deal is imminent.

“Not right now,” Vete said.

“It is still in talks with my manager about what is the best thing for me moving forward whether that is staying here or going overseas.

“I am focused on trying to stay in a starting 17 spot and make it hard for me to be left out.”

Vete’s preference is to remain with the Warriors but he knows his form needs to be strong if he wants a new deal from the club.

“This is home for me. I have a young family.

“I do want to stay but also I have got to be pretty smart with where I want to go with my footy.”

He admits that while it isn’t hard playing for a contract he has learned he needs to put that thought to one side if he wants to get the best deal possible.

“I think I was thinking about that at the start of the year and that is what maybe took my mind off performing,” he admitted.

“Me and Mooks [Stephen Kearney] had a good talk about that and putting that behind me and just focusing on performance because at the end of the day you’re only going to get a contract if you are performing well.”

Vete started the season in first grade but was dumped to the ISP side after three rounds thanks to a form slump.

Albert Vete “I think it was a big wake up call for me in terms of not being comfortable in the position I was in. I started the first three games and I probably didn’t play to the potential I have shown in the past.

“That’s what me and Mooks spoke about the most – just trying to find that form.

“He sees me as a big part of this team.

“I was pretty excited when I got the call up a month ago to get back into first grade and play some good footy and that is where my mindset is at – trying to string some good performances back to back.”

Vete has been back in first grade for the past few weeks, earning a spot on the bench.

His form has been better and the bench has performed pretty well in wins over the Titans and Bulldogs.

“I think we are going pretty well at the moment but I think there is still a few areas where we can work on,” Vete said.

The win over the Bulldogs and their renowned pack was a big lift for the Warriors but Vete knows they will get a big test this week against Manly in Perth. - NZME

Titans sound warning Beware a scorned Jarryd Hayne.

That’s the message from Gold Coast coach Neil Henry as his superstar fullback continues his State of Origin II bounce back.

NSW coach Laurie Daley has guaranteed Hayne’s place in the Blues side for the July 12 decider despite calls for him to be dropped after his forgettable effort in their game two defeat. He rebounded in style last week, scoring two tries and setting up another against last-placed Wests Tigers and Henry said Hayne still felt he had something to prove against St George tonight.

‘Other’ JT ready The man who broke Canberra’s hearts in round one may not be there but North Queensland’s “other JT” is planning another matchwinning effort against the Raiders in Saturday night’s NRL clash.

Cowboys lock Jason Taumalolo has not ruled out a repeat of his remarkable 295m display in their season-opening golden point win over Canberra when he runs out against a giant Raiders pack this weekend. The 11th-placed Raiders are breathing a little easier ahead of their must-win home match with star Johnathan Thurston sidelined for the rest of the season.

Souths on bomb alert South Sydney winger Braidon Burns has enlisted Rabbitohs halfback Adam Reynolds to help him under the high ball ahead of Sunday’s NRL clash with Penrith. Burns was left bamboozled by Panthers halfback Nathan Cleary’s torpedo bombs the last time the two sides met, as the Rabbitohs scraped home with a 21-20 win in round six. Against his former club, Burns made three errors and let the ball bounce on a number of occasions – twice giving up field position for tries. It prompted the 20-year-old to seek out his own halfback to help with the issue, which he hoped would leave him well equipped for Sunday’s match.

■ DONTPOKETHETIGER

In brief

Tiger looking for softer kill Dontpokethetiger’s connections haven’t given up their chase for Australian black type, despite passing up an opportunity tomorrow.

They have opted to start the filly in a $A40,000 Benchmark 85 handicap rather than running for double the money in the Listed Sunshine Coast Guineas.

“We’ve gone for the weaker option as I felt the Guineas was a very strong field and our horse has only won $50,000 and some of the others have won $350,000,” trainer Peter Rudkin said.

“The handicap race we’re in has fallen away a bit and she is a very good chance to run in the first three.

“If she does, we’ll stay on and run her in a Listed race in three weeks’ time at Doomben, but if she can’t then she will come home.”

A multiple stakes placegetter in New Zealand, Dontpokethetiger tailed a small field home in her Australian debut at the Sun-

shine Coast under rider Robbie Fradd, who copped a swipe for his performance on the threeyear-old.

“She had 60kg to carry and she’s a freegoing filly,” Rudkin said. “They were crawling in front and she was reefing and bounding and he kept holding her up.

“It couldn’t have been any worse, I was very annoyed and told the stipes so.

“That’s why we’re bringing Leah Hemi over to ride her.”

Hemi rode Dontpokethetiger in her last three New Zealand outings for placings in both the South Island Thoroughbred Breeders’ Stakes and in the NZ Bloodstock Airfreight Stakes.

The Riccarton filly’s scratching from the Sunshine Coast Guineas has promoted the Lance Noble-trained last-start winner Save The Date to second on the ballot.

Should she not make the field, she will oppose Dontpokethetiger in the 1400 metre Benchmark event.

- NZME

Thorn Prince has trained on well since his bold first-up effort for second in the Ag Challenge Stakes at Wanganui. The stakes winner will revert to handicap company at Hastings on Saturday in the Taradale Club 2100, in which trainer Fraser Auret will take advantage of the claiming conditions. “He went a massive race at Wanganui and he’s in those sort of races at weight-for-age up to his eyeballs, but in handicaps he pays a price for consistency,” he said. - NZME New Zealand export Yogi is proving himself to be an astute purchase for Australian Thoroughbred Bloodstock. The son of Raise The Flag was purchased out of Mel and Warwick Coles’ Washdyke stable and the four-year-old posted his fourth win at Sandown on Wednesday since transferring to Darren Weir’s stable. “He’s got all the potential to be a really exciting horse,” successful rider Craig Williams said.“ - NZME

Big win for Ocean Park Leah Hemi will be riding Dontpokethetiger as she chases some black type in a Benchmark 85 handicap race on the Sunshine Coast.

Jockey happy to go the extra miles chance in the Walsh Memorial.

“He’s tough enough and the only slight question mark will be the step up in company, but he should cope with that,” he said.

Go Go Gonzo placed in his first three outings over the smaller fences before he broke his maiden last time out at Timaru.

“He’s no superstar, but he does jump well. He’s honest and he’ll grind it out.”

Gordon has three rides at Hastings on Saturday and he rated the

Prince in top order

Yogi strikes again

■ WINGATUI

Cambridge-based rider Will Gordon is prepared to travel far and wide in his pursuit of the jumping jockeys’ premiership.

He has 12 winners to his credit in the title race, one behind frontrunner Aaron Kuru, and will head to Wingatui today for one ride and then back up at Hastings the following day.

Gordon’s southern trip looks likely to be rewarded with the Sean Cameron-owned and trained Go Go Gonzo a leading

Te Whangai Romneys Hawke’s Bay Hurdles contender Justa Charlie his best hope.

The Harvey Wilson-prepared jumper was a winner at Trentham two runs back and then finished a solid third behind Sea King and Upper Cut in the Awapuni Hurdles.

“He was hampered on the home turn by a riderless horse, I’m not saying he would have run second but he would have finished closer.”

Gordon will also partner Hesalljazz in the Stella Artois Maiden Hurdle and That’s How It Goes in the Just A Swagger Hawke’s Bay Hunt Maiden Chase.

“Hesalljazz has been struggling a bit on the flat and I won a hurdle trial on him so he’s half a chance if he does it all right.”

That’s How It Goes will need a complete form turn around to be in contention after failing to beat a runner home in either of his last two starts.

■ LUMINEER

Regally-bred Ocean Jewel lived up to her pedigree when she made a winning debut in Wednesday’s Ascend Sales Trophies Handicap (1200m) at Belmont Park in Perth.

The Simon Miller-trained two-yearold, who started a $1.40 favourite, charged home to score by 1 1⁄2 lengths for jockey Joseph Azzopardi. “She’ll be set for Ascot carnival races,” said Miller’s racing manager Kyle Nowland. “We gave her time to mature before racing and she’s got a lot of potential.”

- NZME

O’Reilly gelding wins Trainer Chris Gangemi maintained a run of success when West Fifty Fourth won Wednesday’s Get The Tabtouch Maiden at Belmont in Perth. The O’Reilly gelding, who was making his race debut, started a $2.60 favourite and got up to score by a short neck. Gangemi expects West Fifty Fourth, a son of St Leger runner-up Striptease, to develop into a nice stayer. “He’ll be a lot better when we increase his distances,” Gangemi said. “He’s still green and has a lot to learn.”- NZME

Payne stood down

Top two-year-old out for the season

By AdAm HAmilton You won’t see Australia’s buzz juvenile Lumineer again this season.

Trainer Ange McDowall has confirmed the unbeaten Australian Gold final winner would not be returning for the rich Breeders Crown at Melton in August.

“I’m sure we’re doing the right thing benching him for the rest of the season,” McDowall said.

Lumineer had a minor setback after his sparkling Australian Gold win at Menangle on April 29 and has not been seen since.

“He’s really well.

“We had him checked over at the Ballarat clinic last Friday and all looks good,” McDowall said.

“It’s extremely tempting to go again, but I think it’s best to give

some extra time out now.

“This way he can return to work in August and have a long, slow build-up to a big three-yearold season.

“The plan is to start taking him to the beach again in August.

“I don’t like to rush their preparations, so it’ll be good to have time on our side before the major (3YO) races.”

Lumineer has won all five starts by an aggregate of 50m and run some staggering times seemingly with ease, including his 1.52.5 at Menangle in a semifinal in the Australian Gold.

His brilliance has prompted discussions around being the best juvenile since the mighty Lombo Pocket Watch, who won 17 of his 18 starts in the 2005/06 season.

- HRNZ

Left – Lumineer won’t be seen on the track again this season.

Australasia’s highest profile female jockey has been stood down after returning a positive test to an appetite suppressant. Melbourne Cup-winning rider Michelle Payne, who last week competed at the famous Royal Ascot meeting in England, gave a urine sample at the Swan Hill Cup meeting on June 11 which was later found to contain Phentermine, a banned substance under racing rules.

- NZME

It’s Benzini’s turn Kelly McCulloch might have had a hazy view of Ipswich Cup winner Self Sense in the distance aboard Benzini at the end of that feature, but the Pukekohe jockey’s focus is firmly on turning the tables this weekend. Self Sense went to the line 6 3/4 lengths clear of secondplaced Benzini in the Ipswich Cup a fortnight ago, but with a 2.5kg swing in the weights in the Adrian and Harry Bull-trained raider’s favour and an unwavering faith in her mount, McCulloch believes she can get square in Saturday’s Listed Caloundra Cup (2400m). - NZME

AshHutt stamps authority

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

The AshHutt 1st XV girls have continued their impressive run of form in the Aoraki School Girls’ Competition with a win against Timaru Girls’ High School on Wednesday evening.

The combined side picked up five tries on their way to a 29-17 win.

Coach Grant Elvines said he

was pleased with his side’s performance in a tough game on what was a challenging pitch to play on.

“It was quite heavy underfoot which made it difficult to play running rugby, but the girls did well,” he said.

Elvines said apart from struggling with Timaru Girls’ “Richie McCaw-like” No.7 and protecting the ball at the breakdown, the

side had played very well.

“It was the first time with contested scrums and that went well.

“The lineouts were good and there was a lot of good catch and pass rugby,” he said.

The Te Moananui triplets were a main attacking outlet for the combined side, with Erana picking up a double, while Jaimee scored one.

Fullback Kate Donald account-

ed for nine of the team’s points, scoring a try as well as notching up two conversions.

The side has played six matches so far this season, winning all six along with a default victory.

Elvines said that he expects it will be Timaru Girls’ they will be facing this year in the final.

“Based off who we have played I can’t really see anyone getting past them,” he said.

If relations between Steve Hansen and Warren Gatland were a little frosty in the aftermath of the first test, they will have thawed somewhat after the former gave a compassionate reminder in Wellington that he has nothing but respect for his adversary.

Hansen, a skilled and tactical media operator, enjoys more than most coaches the opportunity to float ideas and theories about opponents in the public domain.

He’s been in full swing since the Lions arrived, making several observations that have irked Lions coach Gatland – none more so than his early prediction that the tourists were going to call up a handful of players midway through the tour to bolster their ranks.

But the NZ Herald carried a caricature of Gatland as a clown in their Tuesday edition – the third time the paper has dressed up an international coach in such a way.

The cartoon drew widespread media criticism, especially in the UK, and has also drawn a negative response from Hansen, who made it clear that personally ridiculing Gatland like that was “disappointing” and “undeserved”.

“I think it is really disappointing,” said Hansen.

“It is one thing to have a bit of banter and then you guys beef that up to make it bigger than it really is.

“I have heard you say that I don’t like him and we won’t have a beer together. Look, I have got a lot of respect for him and I think he is a good coach and I have got a lot of respect for the Lions who I think are a good team.

“To come out and do that [publish the clown cartoon], you are ridiculing somebody who doesn’t deserve it and at the end of the day, we are all coaches trying to do something that we think is right.

“But to ridicule someone is not right so it is a bit disappointing.”

In brief

■ RUGBY

ABs choose attack

BY GREGOR PAUL The balance of the collective skills of the All Blacks back three in the first test was arguably tipped slightly in favour of their defensive attributes.

With the arrival of Waisake Naholo on the right wing, the balance of the back three is now tipped very much in favour of their collective attacking prowess.

It’s not that a back three of Israel Dagg at fullback and Naholo and Rieko Ioane on the wings, is defensively frail.

Far from it.

But it is a back three which will be more potent with the ball than it will be without it.

It is a back three, or at least the two wings, are the sort of players that focus minds elsewhere in the team to ensure they are doing what they need to be doing.

That’s because it’s hardly rocket science to work out that if Naholo and Ioane are given the ball going forward, they will keep going forward.

Exciting seems a fair enough description of the potential.

Naholo simply doesn’t do dull.

He’s earned his recall on the back of a strong and memorable game for the Highlanders against the Lions.

It was a reminder that when he’s in the right head space, eager, urgent and active, he’s a player with considerable abilities.

Naholo has that magical gift

of making it look like he’s ambling along with no real purpose, while good players – men with genuine pace – are left in his wake.

That deceptive pace of his is a genuine weapon for the All Blacks because so many teams have underestimated Naholo or failed to realise the true extent of the danger he poses.

He’s unpredictable, occasionally loose and casual but always fun to watch: always making

things happen around him and if there is any space in this second test, Naholo will find it.

Ioane, on limited possession, gave clear and lasting evidence about what he can do at this level on one quarter of a chance.

His second try at Eden Park looked a bit fortuitous and to some degree there was some luck that the ball, when not gathered

by Liam Williams, jumped into Ioane’s arms.

But the rest was not lucky.

Not at all.

There was only one player on the field who could have scored from there and it was Ioane and he was only able to do so because he’s blessed with that incredible pace.

We’d heard about it, been told he was the quickest of the lot and he proved it by managing to burn off Lions wing Elliot Daly.

Ioane didn’t even need to fend Daly – he managed to get clear of tackle distance within three or four strides and that was the extraordinary part about that try: how

easily Ioane found the space.

The fact there is a different setup and different skill emphasis in the back three will serve as a reminder to the All Blacks that they can’t rely on anything in test two being a replica of what happened in test one.

This sounds awfully like a chapter out of the book of the bleeding obvious, but if there is one critical thing the All Blacks have come to understand about backing up big performances, it is that they have realised that big performances never look the same.

Last week it was the excellence of their tight five and general physical dominance across the park that won the All Blacks the test.

That same picture is unlikely to emerge this week and the game could, almost certainly will, be of an entirely different nature.

And if anyone wants to hazard an early guess of where it may differ, the attacking contribution of the All Blacks back three may be the best place to start. - NZME

Lions roll dice with Sexton-Farrell axis

BY ANGELO RISSO The British and Irish Lions have gone for broke with their secondtest squad to face the All Blacks, naming the twin playmaking threats of Johnny Sexton and Owen Farrell in the starting XV. Farrell will shift from first-five to second-five for the clash in Wellington, with Irish talisman Sexton stepping into the No.10 jumper.

It’s a risky move from Lions boss Warren Gatland, given Ben Te’o’s decent first-test showing and the continued ball-carrying threat of Sonny Bill Williams.

But with the series on the line in Saturday’s test, Gatland felt his side needed a stronger offensive and try-scoring threat.

Te’o moves to the bench, with Welshman Jonathan Davies retaining his role at centre and the back three of Liam Williams, Elliot Daly and Anthony Watson unchanged.

Warburton in terms of pressure on the ball,” Gatland said.

“It’s tough on Peter O’Mahony, who has done a brilliant job – we had to look at the bench and we felt that CJ Stander’s ball-carrying and defence was the right choice.

“You have to make the tough calls and pick what’s the right team, and the right combinations, for a test match.” - NZME Johnny Sexton comes in to first-five for the Lions on Saturday.

“Both have played well and it gives us that attacking option in the No.10-No.12 channel – we created opportunities in the first test and there were a few that we didn’t finish,” Gatland said.

“We were disappointed that we put ourselves in a position to put the All Blacks under pressure and to get back into the game, and we let it slip.”

The team will be captained by Sam Warburton from the blindside, suggesting Gatland will look

for more physicality at the breakdown, while first-test skipper Peter O’Mahony has been omitted altogether.

English powerhouse Maro Itoje steps in for compatriot George Kruis in the second row, while Courtney Lawes, CJ Stander and Jack Nowell have been rewarded for their strong mid-week form with test berths on the bench.

“We saw Maro’s impact in the first test and he’ll bring an edge and a physicality, as will Sam

Reserves: Ken Owens, Jack McGrath, Kyle Sinckler, Courtney Lawes, CJ Stander, Rhys Webb, Ben Te’o, Jack Nowell.

Smith out for series All Blacks coach Steve Hansen has ruled out selecting fullback Ben Smith for the third test against the British and Irish Lions a week on Saturday due to the player’s concussion issues. Hansen said even if Smith, now back home in Dunedin, passed his head injury assessment protocols he wouldn’t play, saying a conservative approach was necessary after two previous head knocks this season.

Smith was replaced in the first test last Saturday after failing his head injury assessment.

- NZME

A wet-weather test Rugby fans should pack a poncho when heading to the test in Wellington, as heavy rains in Westland are expected to move north. The MetService has issued a heavy rain warning for Westland and Buller. Up to 140mm of rain could fall in an 18-hour period from this morning. The rain is expected to move on to the rest of the country, just in time for the second test tomorrow.

- NZME

Whitewash, says Richie Test legends Richie McCaw and Dan Carter have both tipped the All Blacks for a 3-0 series whitewash over the Lions. McCaw and Carter, who both played the Lions in the 2005 series whitewash before retiring from All Blacks duty after their 2015 World Cup success, admitted to feeling brief pangs of nostalgia on Saturday. But they didn’t regret their decisions to leave the fold, with McCaw hanging up the boots and Carter joining French club Racing 92.

Wallabies on defensive Nathan Grey wants the Australian rugby public to share his love for defence after signing on as a fulltime Wallabies assistant coach.

Grey, who joined the Wallabies coaching staff in 2014, has been both a national and NSW Waratahs assistant coach for the past three seasons, focusing on defence.

The 42-year-old has signed a twoyear contract extension with the ARU, taking him through until the end of the 2019 World Cup. - AAP

Expect a new look The All Blacks know the Lions are going to come back at them in Wellington harder and more determined. They can now assume the Lions are also going to play a little bit wider, more freely and throw more resource into the breakdown to try to stop the All Blacks’ momentum. That assumption is based on the team the Lions have selected for the second test. The selection of tour captain Sam Warburton in the unfamiliar No 6 is being viewed as evidence the Lions have changed their thinking.

Rebels jumping ship The Western Force have continued their signing frenzy, but the future of the Melbourne Rebels appears increasingly bleak as the franchise’s best players prepare to jump ship.

Chance Peni became the latest star to re-sign with the Force yesterday, joining the likes of Wallabies newcomer Richard Hardwick and veteran Ben Daley as other players to have put pen to paper, while in contrast the Rebels are battling to keep their quad together.

By Tayla MiTchell The buildup into the ANZ Premiership final wasn’t ideal for Wendy Frew but the Southern Steel’s inspirational captain came through and played the full 60 minutes in Wednesday night’s victory.

Just weeks after a van crash that resulted in Frew needing surgery on her elbow and knee, she spoke about the accident and the final victory over the Pulse.

“A couple of weeks out from playing the game was not ideal prep but the girls had our backs and we just knew we had to do our own jobs well and that’s all we focused about”.

It’s been an emotional time for Frew and her other team-mates who were also involved in the crash.

“But it was the rallying together that got them over the line.

“It has been an emotional few weeks dealing with all the dramas from that [the crash].

“But as a team I think it made us strong and it really helped us out obviously experiencing that you know made us strong as a group and we just wanted to do it for each other.”

It wasn’t a full consistent display from the Southerners but Frew says they were just trying to get the win.

“I think our first quarter and actually our first half was really strong and in the second half we were probably a wee bit quiet.

“But we got the win and we were trying to get the win at the end of the day, so absolutely stoked.”

Steel skipper Wendy Frew Frew thought her team delivered under pressure and did their jobs well.

“There was a lot of pressure on us to win last night and the girls delivered.

“They came to the party and we tried to keep cool heads all week and go about the basics and doing our own jobs well and I think the girls stood up and done that.”

Chris Froome says he is close to agreeing a contract extension that would keep the three-time Tour de France champion with Team Sky until 2021.

The 32-year-old Briton said he hopes the details will be finalised by the time the 2017 Tour starts in Duesseldorf, Germany on Saturday.

“We are in the final processes now of agreeing an extension,” he said.

“Hopefully by the time we start on Saturday, the t’s will be crossed and i’s dotted.”

A deal to 2021 will give Froome more opportunities to edge closer to and possibly catch Jacques Anquetil, Eddy Merckx, Bernard Hinault and Miguel Indurain – who all won five Tours.

At Sky, Froome benefits from one of the strongest, best-funded teams in cycling, with eight support riders all dedicated at this Tour to the goal of a fourth title for the reigning champion.

“I’m as motivated as ever,” Froome said.

On a Tour route not necessarily suited to his strengths this year, Froome said he aims to ride aggressively and opportunistically, looking to put distance between himself and key rivals whenever chances arise.

“It’s got to be an aggressive race,” Team Sky leader Dave Brailsford said. “We’ve come up with a game plan which we are looking forward to trying to roll out.”

If he makes the start of the 2020 Tour, Froome would be 35. The oldest ever Tour winner was Firmin Lambot, who was 36 when he won in 1922.

Froome said that he feels capable possibly of racing for five or six more years at the top level, “at best”.

Puzzles

Puzzles and horoscopes www.guardianonline.co.nz Cryptic crossword

Friday, June 30, 2017

ARIES (Mar 21-Apr 19): Your mind is working on something important. Cut out artificial noise and false imagery. Solutions are likely to be inspired from nature than a glowing screen.

TAURUS (Apr 20-May 20): Today’s problem will bring minds together. There’s a riddle to solve, a code to break or a puzzle to piece together.

Good teamwork will open the gates to a wonderland.

GEMINI (May 21-Jun 21): Most people are afraid to admit what they don’t understand, for fear of being alone in mystification. Speak up and you’ll not only learn; you’ll enlighten others too timid to voice their confusion.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 22): How can you keep from being led astray by charismatic leaders acting out of greedy self-interest? Question everything. This isn’t the same as cynicism. Cynics assume the worst. Be a fact-checker, not a cynic.

LEO (Jul 23-Aug 22): Our minds run on images. Images change thought; thoughts make real things happen. Illusions may not have the same properties as things that occur in the physical world, but that doesn’t make them unreal.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sep 22): Because you care about helping things grow, you’ll go to great lengths to learn the environment conducive to growth. It will take patience, an open mind and an enthusiasm for experimentation.

LIBRA (Sep 23-Oct 23): When the foundation is strong, the building will weather the storms and changes. You can apply this to a project you’ll start from scratch. Unfortunately, it won’t help the one with the foundation laid long ago.

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 21): Marcel Proust suggested that the only paradise is paradise lost. But was that paradise really so idyllic? If it seemed so heavenly at the time, you wouldn’t have risked it all for the proverbial apple.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): You look at the same thing as the next person and see something entirely different. Maybe you’re not ready to share your point of view yet, but work on it so you can share soon.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Be kind to their dreams.

If they’ve given up hope, hold on for them. To keep the light of faith for another person is a rare and precious gift of friendship. It also reminds you to hold on to your own dreams.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Don’t defer until tomorrow.

Tomorrow will come, but how do you know you’ll be in the mood to do the thing? You won’t. Do it now, while you’re also not in the mood. Show “the mood” who’s boss.

PISCES (Feb 19-Mar 20): If you’re not worried about it, it means you’re wise, lucky or both. “A man is rich in proportion to the number of things he can afford to let alone.” – Henry David Thoreau

Sport Horn up against it Manny Pacquiao’s Australian conditioning coach believes Jeff Horn will be consumed by nerves the moment he walks out in front of 50,000 people at Suncorp on Sunday. Former heavyweight boxer Justin Fortune reckons the unbeaten 29-year-old Horn is out of his depth and will be brutally exposed by the Filipino legend as he defends his WBO welterweight title. In a sobering assessment of the Battle of Brisbane, Fortune said he gave Horn zero chance of springing a major upset against Pacquiao.

Tackling Australia’s best

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

Two Mid Canterbury basketballers are ready to take on the best of Australia next week.

Sophie Adams and Ashlee Strawbridge will be part of the New Zealand U16 team that will be competing at the Australian U16 State Championships, which begins on July 8.

The tournament consists of 14

teams split in to two pools of seven, with teams from all around Australia such as Queensland South and New South Wales Metro taking part.

The pair will first travel to join the New Zealand squad on the fourth, before travelling to Perth and playing a practice game before the tournament starts.

Both said they were excited to be heading away, but that they

had not set any goals heading in to the tournament.

“We just want to go to play hard and play well,” said Adams.

“It is hard to say going in to it cause we don’t really know much about the teams we are going up against,” said Strawbridge.

On top of being provided homework from their coaches such as fitness and skill pro-

grammes, the pair have travelled to Auckland for seven training camps this year, varying in length from two to four days.

Ashburton College basketball coach Andrew Sheppard said it had been a full-on year for the girls, and that it was great to see their hard work pay off.

“Now we are just looking forward to seeing them go,” he said.

Burling foxing at America’s Cup race starts Team New Zealand helmsman Peter Burling was apparently ordered to under-perform during the start of earlier races as part of a plan to outfox Oracle’s Jimmy Spithill in the finals series.

As the country held its breath

at Emirates Team New Zealand’s inconsistent performances during the Louis Vuitton regatta, it now seems Burling had it under control all along.

In fact, the Team New Zealand helmsman had been ordered to

Lydia aims for consistency P28

bluff his abilities at the starting box before unleashing hell on Spithill, it’s been reported.

It appeared Burling had made swift developments in his matchracing, especially the start, over the course of the series.

Historically Oracle and Spithill have been impressive starters in match racers, but instead Burling thrashed the master at his own game, getting across the line first in seven of their nine races.

Goalkeeper Claudio Bravo pulled off three successive saves as Chile defeated Portugal in a penalty shootout to reach the final of the Confederations Cup. The Copa America champions Chile won the shootout 3-0 in Kazan yesterday with Arturo Vidal, Charles Aranguiz and Alexis Sanchez converting their spot kicks after a goalless 90 minutes and extra-time.

Bravo dived twice to his right to save from Ricardo Quaresma and Joao Moutinho, then to his left to stop Nani.

Curry to play pro golf Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry has accepted a sponsor’s invite to compete in the Ellie Mae Classic on the secondary Web.com Tour. The Warriors guard, who has a handicap of 2.2, will contest the event – which benefits the Warriors Community Foundation – at TPC Stonebrae from August 3-6. “When I found out I was getting a sponsor exemption, I had a lot of emotions because I love to play golf; it’s a passion of mine,” Curry said. “But to be able to play against the next and best golf professionals will be a huge honour and huge treat.”
