line Cranmer Square as small<br />

bodies of Cantabrians killed in<br />

World War 1.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 104-year-old will lead the<br />

Anzac Day parade in a Jeep on<br />

<strong>April</strong> 25, to remember those who<br />

lost their lives.<br />

As part of the commemorations,<br />

the crosses were laid<br />

out on Tuesday, which represent<br />

the men and women who died<br />

in the first three years of the<br />

war.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are part of the fouryear-long<br />

Regional Fields of<br />

Remembrance Project, where the<br />

number of crosses placed there<br />

each year correlates to the number<br />

of those killed at that point in<br />

the war.<br />

THE DEFUNCT Canterbury<br />

Earthquake Recovery Authority<br />

made a $600,000 payment to the<br />

company behind <strong>The</strong> Crossing<br />

development – but specific<br />

details of a cost breakdown<br />

remains a mystery.<br />

Documents obtained by <strong>The</strong><br />

Act show questions were<br />

raised within CERA over the<br />

payment, which was made in<br />

2015 to A.B. Investments Ltd.<br />

It was paid after CERA staff<br />

asked the company to change<br />

the plans for the Lichfield St<br />

development to make it work<br />

GO DOWN to Cranmer<br />

Square and you’ll see an<br />

incredibly moving scene.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are 3200 crosses there<br />

– the number of Cantabrians<br />

who died in the first three<br />

years of the Great War, a war<br />

that was meant to end all<br />

wars.<br />

Yesterday, reporter Bridget<br />

Rutherford and photographer<br />

Martin Hunter spoke to<br />

104-year-old Bill Mitchell, a<br />

World war 2 vet at Cranmer<br />

Square who is leading the<br />

Anzac Day parade in 12 days.<br />

I’ve always admired the Bill<br />

Mitchell’s of this world – sent<br />

across the seas as young men<br />

to fight in battles, many of<br />

them who would never return<br />

home.<br />

For many it was an<br />

adventure; the camaraderie of<br />

being in a team, seeing new<br />

places and having a lot of fun.<br />

But that all turned to custard<br />

pretty quick, and those crosses<br />

in Cranmer Square define<br />

what war brings to many –<br />

death.<br />

Cold case’s final chapter<br />

Woman laid<br />

to rest nearly<br />

a century<br />

after murder<br />

FORENSIC TESTING of bones<br />

nearly a century after St Martins<br />

woman Ellen Mouat was<br />

murdered has meant she could<br />

be laid to rest with her parents.<br />

<strong>The</strong> 40-year-old woman,<br />

known as Nellie, was murdered<br />

by her husband Frederick Mouat<br />

on February 20, 1925, in what<br />

has been described as one of the<br />

country’s most compelling cases.<br />

He dismembered and burnt<br />

her body. But police were never<br />

able to confirm the remains<br />

were hers, and many thought<br />

Mrs Mouat was still alive.<br />

Now more than 90 years later,<br />

as part of the New Zealand<br />

Police Museum’s repatriation<br />

project, she has been buried<br />

with her parents at Linwood<br />

Cemetery after testing by Otago<br />

University forensic anthropologists<br />

confirmed the remains<br />

were hers.<br />

It was the museum’s 37th, and<br />

final repatriation.<br />

A special ceremony has been<br />

held with police representatives<br />

and Mrs Mouat’s family to bury<br />

her.<br />

Her parents’ headstone<br />

in Linwood Cemetery was<br />

•From page 1<br />

Christchurch RSA president<br />

Pete Dawson said the crosses<br />

were a poignant reminder of<br />

how many men and women<br />

were killed.<br />

“New Zealand had a population<br />

of one million people in<br />

damaged in the February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake, so police had<br />

it restored and added her name<br />

to it.<br />

Mrs Mouat went missing from<br />

her Beckford St home on February<br />

20, 1925. Mr Mouat also<br />

disappeared. After a manhunt<br />

he was found and charged with<br />

her murder.<br />

Detectives working on the<br />

case found hundreds of crushed<br />

and burned pieces of bone on<br />

the Mouat’s property and made<br />

1915 and of that, 10 per cent<br />

went to fight in World War 1.<br />

Of that 10 per cent, 18 per cent<br />

did not return home.”<br />

Anzac Day dawn service MC<br />

Paul O’Connor MBE, said the<br />

crosses showed the scale of what<br />

really happened during World<br />

COMPELLING: Police, along with family members,<br />

at a ceremony to bury Ellen Mouat with her parents<br />

at Linwood Cemetery. Mrs Mouat was murdered by<br />

her husband Frederick in 1925, but police were never<br />

able to confirm the remains were hers – until now.<br />

a case against him.<br />

It was the first time police<br />

had built a murder case against<br />

someone without having a complete<br />

body.<br />

At the trial, medical experts<br />

testified the bones would have<br />

come from a woman of Mrs<br />

Mouat’s stature.<br />

But because it had not been<br />

confirmed, Mr Mouat was only<br />

convicted of manslaughter.<br />

War 1, and in each year it went<br />

they were taken to<br />

tested.<br />

In July, 2015, the New Zealand<br />

Police Museum started a project<br />

to repatriate the remains of<br />

37 people that had been in<br />

the museum’s care since the<br />

1920s and 30s. It has now been<br />

completed.<br />

In Brief<br />

SNEEZE BLAMED FOR CRASH<br />

A sneeze could be to blame for a<br />

motorist crossing the centre line<br />

and colliding with two trucks<br />

near Templeton yesterday. <strong>The</strong><br />

woman, in her 60s, was taken<br />

to Christchurch Hospital with<br />

moderate injuries. Both truck<br />

drivers were unharmed. Police<br />

said she was in the “incorrect<br />

lane” and collided with a milk<br />

tanker and grain truck at about<br />

11.15am between Berketts and<br />

Larcombs Rds, possibly because<br />

she had sneezed.<br />

Diary of Gallipoli surgeon brought<br />

SERVICE: Dr Percival Fenwick<br />

during the Boer War in 1900. ​<br />

“A more hellish Sunday<br />

one could not conceive.<br />

“Total to date 5000 (approximately)<br />

casualties,<br />

about three men per yard<br />

of ground gained.”<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

“IT SEEMED impossible<br />

for men to live under the<br />

hail of bullets” – that was<br />

how Christchurch surgeon<br />

Lieutenant-Colonel Percival<br />

Fenwick described his<br />

experience at Gallipoli.<br />

He was one of the first New<br />

Zealanders ashore at Anzac<br />

Cove on <strong>April</strong> 25, 1915, and kept<br />

a diary of the horrifying things<br />

he saw there.<br />

Parts of his diary have now<br />

been used in a new project,<br />

Ngā Tapuwae First World War<br />

Trails, which tells stories from<br />

battlefields where New Zealanders<br />

fought.<br />

It was designed as a guide for<br />

people visiting the battlefields in<br />

person for Anzac commemorations,<br />

but can also be listened<br />

to while exploring the scenes<br />

online.<br />

Lt Col<br />

Fenwick’s<br />

granddaughter,<br />

Philippa Horn<br />

(right), said his<br />

diary was only<br />

discovered after<br />

his death.<br />

“He very seldom spoke about<br />

those things. <strong>The</strong> only thing<br />

PROJECT: Dr Fenwick’s diary is being used to tell stories of battlefields where New Zealanders<br />

fought. He is seen here in 1945 (left) and cutting the hair of a World War 1 soldier in Gallipoli.<br />

he ever said, that I remember,<br />

was that he was ashamed to<br />

come out of Gallipoli alive,” she<br />

said.<br />

He was sent home after two<br />

months at the front because he<br />

developed paratyphoid, but he<br />

wrote several letters to the army<br />

in protest, asking to be sent<br />

back, she said.<br />

When World War 2 broke out,<br />

then aged 69, he wrote letters<br />

again asking to be allowed to<br />

serve, but was told he was too<br />

old.<br />

Mrs Horn said he had served<br />

in the Boer War for three years<br />

as a younger man, and was<br />

strongly driven to try to help<br />

and heal as many as he could on<br />

the battlefield.<br />

In peacetime he worked as<br />

a surgeon for many years in<br />

Christchurch, where he met his<br />

wife, Nona Wright, a nurse at<br />

Bottle Lake Hospital.<br />

Mrs Horn said he was “everything<br />

a grandfather should have<br />

been”.<br />

“He had a lovely sense of humour<br />

and was always so pleased<br />

to see us,” she said.<br />

His story can be found at<br />

hampered by our kit –<br />

overcoat, revolver, glasses,<br />

us. Bill Beck was the first New<br />

Zealander of Godley’s force<br />

to get on to Gallipoli.”<br />

On treating the wounded:<br />

“Several dead men were<br />

lying on the beach . . . every<br />

minute the numbers increased<br />

and, as in addition<br />

fresh troops came ashore<br />

with mules and ammunition,<br />

the chaos became<br />

appalling . . . this state<br />

of things lasted all day.<br />

It seemed impossible for<br />

men to live under the hail of<br />

bullets. Capt Craig dressed<br />

over 100 cases under fire.<br />

One of his assistants had<br />

his finger shot off while<br />

helping him. Men were constantly<br />

hit in our station and<br />

their pluck and devotion in<br />

continuing their work under<br />

these galling conditions is<br />

hopelessly above praise.<br />

“At midnight I got four<br />

big horse boats, which<br />

held 12 stretchers on the<br />

bottom and I packed in<br />

less severe cases along<br />

the sides, sitting, kneeling,<br />

lying – anyhow, about 120<br />

all told. I got these four off<br />

at last at 1.30, and lay down<br />

in the rain at the side of<br />

the hill. I certainly was very<br />

astonished that I was alive.<br />

A more hellish Sunday one<br />

could not conceive.”<br />

“Total to date 5000 (approximately)<br />

casualties,<br />

about three men per yard of<br />

ground gained.”<br />

On burying the dead:<br />

“<strong>The</strong> most ghastly day. This<br />

morning I was ordered to act<br />

as the [delineating] officer for<br />

the burial of the dead<br />

. . . raining heavily. I got a<br />

loan of a dead or missing<br />

man’s overcoat and was all<br />

right.<br />

“We were met by some<br />

Turkish officers who arrived<br />

on horseback followed by<br />

50 very fine looking Turks,<br />

carrying Red Crescent and<br />

white flags. One of the officers<br />

was a German doctor.<br />

We were introduced by our<br />

interpreters and moved up<br />

the hillside in two long lines.<br />

Every 100 yards or so we<br />

stationed a man with a white<br />

flag, and opposite to him the<br />

Turks posted one of their<br />

men. We clambered through<br />

dripping bushes, with beautiful<br />

poppies and flowers.<br />

“Coming over the crest of<br />

the hill, I found the first New<br />

Zealander, lying on his face.<br />

Poor lad! A few yards climb<br />

brought us on a plateau, and<br />

a most awful sight was here.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Turkish dead lay so thick<br />

that it was almost impossible<br />

to pass without treading<br />

on the bodies. <strong>The</strong> awful<br />

destructive power of high<br />

explosive was very evident.<br />

Huge holes surrounded by<br />

circles of corpses, blown to<br />

pieces. One shell had fallen<br />

and set fire to a bush, as a<br />

dead man lay charred to the<br />

bone. Everywhere on looked<br />

lay dead, swollen, black, hideous,<br />

and overall a nauseating<br />

stench that nearly made<br />

one vomit.<br />

“Behind us for at least<br />

two miles, we could see<br />

our burial parties working<br />

furiously. In some cases the<br />

dead actually formed part<br />

of the trench wall. It was a<br />

terrible sight to see arms and<br />

legs sticking out of the sand,<br />

underneath the sandbags . . .<br />

I left, feeling deadly ill.<br />

“I only saw about 10 of ours<br />

but, at a very modest estimate,<br />

I saw 2000 dead Turks.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Turkish officers were<br />

charming. <strong>The</strong> Germans<br />

were rude and dictatorial<br />

and accused us of digging<br />

trenches. I lost my temper<br />

(and my German) and told<br />

him the corpses were so<br />

decomposed they could<br />

not be lifted and our men<br />

were merely digging pits<br />

to put the awful things into.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Turkish medico was extremely<br />

nice. We exchanged<br />

cigarettes and I said to him I<br />

hoped that after the war we<br />

should smoke a cigarette.’’<br />

“If this is war, I trust NZ<br />

will never be fool enough to<br />

forget that to avoid war one<br />

most [must] be too strong to<br />

invite war.”<br />

CERA’s $600k payment to change car park<br />

.kiwi<br />

Thursday <strong>April</strong> <strong>13</strong> <strong>2017</strong><br />

•From page 1<br />

A.B. Investments is owned<br />

by PCML Ltd. Well-known<br />

Christchurch businessman<br />

Philip Carter is a shareholder<br />

and sole director of PCML Ltd.<br />

When <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> asked the<br />

Department of Prime Minister<br />

and Cabinet for a specific<br />

breakdown of the costs that<br />

made up the $600,000, the<br />

request was declined on the basis<br />

“the documents requested do not<br />

exist or cannot be found.”<br />

Emails obtained under the<br />

OIA show that concern within<br />

CERA about the payment led to<br />

the Office of the Auditor<br />

General being asked for advice<br />

about it.<br />

<strong>The</strong> concerns also led to CERA<br />

engaging Ernst & Young to<br />

review all of its payments over<br />

two years.<br />

Mr Carter has not responded<br />

to <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong>. His lawyer said<br />

yesterday the transaction was<br />

documented and approved by<br />

CERA’s audit committee.<br />

Emails obtained by <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

show on February 5, 2015, Mr<br />

Carter sent an email to CERA<br />

project delivery deputy director<br />

Greg Wilson with the<br />

invoice, which he said was “as<br />

discussed.”<br />

But in an email on<br />

February 9, CERA anchor<br />

projects project director Tim<br />

Anthon said: “We don’t have<br />

600k in the budget to pay for<br />

this.”<br />

On March 4, Mr Carter<br />

emailed Mr Wilson again<br />

about the payment, saying<br />

he had discussed it with then<br />

CERA Christchurch Central<br />

Development Unit director<br />

Warwick Isaacs.<br />

Mr Isaacs told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

yesterday he did not remember<br />

the conversation.<br />

“It was a very busy time and I<br />

don’t have any recollection of it<br />

or any issues with it,” he said.<br />

Mr Isaacs left CERA in March,<br />

2015, and was replaced by Baden<br />

Ewart.<br />

Mr Ewart told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong><br />

yesterday he was informed about<br />

the agreement with Mr Carter<br />

soon after he took on the role.<br />

DEAL: CERA paid<br />

$600,000 for<br />

changes made<br />

to <strong>The</strong> Crossing<br />

development,<br />

including cutting<br />

a storey from<br />

the car parking<br />

building to<br />

keep it from<br />

shading the Bus<br />

Interchange.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN<br />

HUNTER<br />

He said it was “unusual”<br />

because of the lack of detail<br />

provided in the invoice, and the<br />

fact the changes asked for did not<br />

have a set value.<br />

“I had a conversation with Mr<br />

Carter about the cost. He said he<br />

had to spend another couple of<br />

hundred thousand on design fees<br />

and so on, but I didn’t get from<br />

him a document which reveals<br />

that explicitly,” he said.<br />

“Usually, we would see<br />

something delivered for that<br />

amount of money, like a physical<br />

construction.”<br />

Mr Ewart said he received legal<br />

advice that the deal was already<br />

binding, because an agreement<br />

had been made and Mr Carter<br />

had already changed his designs<br />

on that basis.<br />

He signed the deal on June 26,<br />

and made the $600,000 payment<br />

to A.B. Investments on July 1.<br />

Office of the Auditor General<br />

spokesman Mike Heine told <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Star</strong> an appointed auditor spoke<br />

to CERA chief financial officer<br />

Martin Langridge about the<br />

arrangement in June.<br />

“CERA had concerns about the<br />

invoice and whether there was an<br />

enforceable contract,” he said.<br />

He said the Office of the<br />

Auditor General provided verbal<br />

advice only and was not involved<br />

in the investigation, which was<br />

carried out by CERA.<br />

<strong>The</strong> DPMC told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> that<br />

Minister supporting Greater<br />

Christchurch Regeneration<br />

Gerry Brownlee was told about<br />

the payment.<br />

A spokeswoman for Mr<br />

Brownlee told <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> yesterday<br />

he could not respond to<br />

questions because “key people”<br />

were away this week.<br />

Using new technologies to make<br />

Over the past year,<br />

the city council has<br />

been trying to make<br />

Christchurch more<br />

tech savvy through<br />

the Smart Cities<br />

programme. Bridget<br />

been working on<br />

TERESA McCALLUM reckons<br />

she’s got the best job in the<br />

world.<br />

She is trying to make the city<br />

more tech savvy, and a safer and<br />

better place to live and visit.<br />

Since November 2015, she has<br />

been the city council’s Smart Cities<br />

programme manager.<br />

Her role is to come up with<br />

new ways of doing things<br />

through technology that will<br />

both improve the way the city<br />

operates and save money.<br />

But it’s not done in the conventional<br />

way that city council’s<br />

normally work.<br />

She comes up with the ideas,<br />

develops them and carries out<br />

<strong>The</strong> programme is also being<br />

the earthquakes and the rebuild,<br />

Christchurch is the perfect place<br />

“We have a chance to do something<br />

SmartView<br />

Wouldn’t it be great to have an<br />

online hub where you could go to<br />

get all the information you need<br />

about Christchurch? That’s exactly<br />

what Smart Cities has been<br />

working on. SmartView, which is<br />

hoped to be up and running by<br />

June, is a website where you can<br />

find out anything about the city,<br />

including water quality, weather,<br />

recent earthquakes, air quality,<br />

road works, bus routes with live<br />

locations of where the bus is,<br />

travel times, flight information,<br />

activities, events and news.<br />

Soon Ms McCallum wants<br />

to include a section where you<br />

city – and what ones are free.<br />

SmartRubbish<br />

It may seem small, but overflowing<br />

rubbish bins make up<br />

a lot of the city council’s complaints.<br />

Smart Cities has been<br />

trialling two ‘big belly’ bins in<br />

New Brighton for rubbish and<br />

recycling.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y are solar panelled and<br />

can hold six times the amount<br />

of rubbish than normal bins<br />

because they self-compact.<br />

When they are full, they send<br />

an email to contractors to empty<br />

them, and they also stop the<br />

seagulls from getting into them.<br />

If the three-month trial proves<br />

successful, more bins may be<br />

rolled out.<br />

Christchurch a smart city to live in<br />

Kiosks<br />

Electronic touch screen kiosks<br />

are being developed which would<br />

be placed in different parts of<br />

the city to provide residents and<br />

tourists with information.<br />

It is likely they will have<br />

SmartView loaded on them. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

have three different dimensions<br />

so kids, people in wheelchairs<br />

and taller people can all reach the<br />

screen.<br />

<strong>The</strong> team is still working out<br />

locations and how many they<br />

would create.<br />

Bin Level Sensors<br />

Along with the SmartRubbish<br />

trial, Smart Cities is also working<br />

on trialling bin level sensors<br />

which tell contractors when they<br />

are full.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y have a volume, tilt and<br />

heat sensor. <strong>The</strong>se would save<br />

contractors’ time because they<br />

will know exactly what bins<br />

need attention, and it would<br />

also show what ones are actually<br />

used.<br />

It can also save money, in<br />

Santander, Spain, level sensor<br />

monitoring has been installed in<br />

all public refuse bins.<br />

As a result, it has saved 1.5<br />

million Euros annually in diesel<br />

costs along, as contractors do on<br />

demand emptying<br />

EQ Response Visualiser<br />

Software is being developed<br />

that generates images following<br />

an earthquake showing the peak<br />

ground acceleration.<br />

It will generate a coloured ‘heat<br />

map’, which will show where in<br />

the city was worst affected.<br />

This is a huge improvement<br />

over the old method of magnitude<br />

and location. <strong>The</strong> city<br />

council owns more than 1000<br />

facilities and it wants to continually<br />

improve on its assessment<br />

and prioritisation processes.<br />

once the earthquake visualiser<br />

has developed its map, city<br />

council engineers will be able to<br />

see where they should start their<br />

assessments.<br />

This information will be<br />

uploaded to SmartView to be<br />

used by any individual or<br />

agency.<br />

<strong>The</strong> concept was developed as<br />

part of last year’s GovHack competition<br />

and later came second<br />

at the international awards in<br />

Adelaide.<br />

GovHack team members have<br />

formed a company called Sense3<br />

to deliver the project for the city<br />

council.<br />

It is hoped to be trialled within<br />

six months.<br />

Sensibel<br />

Sensibels are a small piece of<br />

equipment, with a bell, which can<br />

be clipped onto bicycle handle<br />

bars.<br />

Smart Cities is looking to roll<br />

them out so people can use them<br />

when they are riding, and can<br />

ring the bell once for a negative<br />

experience, and twice for a positive<br />

one.<br />

<strong>The</strong> feedback is sent to a mobile<br />

phone, then to the cloud, to be<br />

used to map what areas need to<br />

be improved.<br />

Fabriko is making them now.<br />

Sensor Network<br />

A sensor network, made up of<br />

what are known as ‘kites’, would<br />

have a number of different uses,<br />

including measuring air quality.<br />

Environment Canterbury has air<br />

quality monitoring stations in St<br />

Albans and Woolston.<br />

Smart Cities wants to set them<br />

up across the city – the problem<br />

is, ECan’s ones cost about $60,000<br />

each. So the team has bought<br />

cheap equipment to attach to the<br />

kites, costing about $200 each. It<br />

has installed them next to ECan’s<br />

stations to see if their results<br />

match. If successful, they will be<br />

rolled out across the city, with the<br />

results fed onto SmartView.<br />

Although they would only provide<br />

a rough estimate, it would<br />

give residents an idea of air quality<br />

where they live.<br />

Seismic Monitoring Network<br />

In other cities across the world,<br />

it is a legislative requirement to<br />

install accelerometers in significant<br />

buildings to measure how<br />

they move in an earthquake. But<br />

in New Zealand it’s not.<br />

So Smart Cities is installing six,<br />

made by Trimble, in Christchurch<br />

Art Gallery to monitor it<br />

during an earthquake.<br />

Ms McCallum says it’s clear<br />

there’s a need for technology<br />

providing data to engineers about<br />

buildings’ safety, and to reduce<br />

the impact of their loss<br />

of earnings and productivity<br />

when buildings are evacuated<br />

as they wait for an engineer’s<br />

inspection.<br />

<strong>The</strong> monitoring network would<br />

monitor how the building holds<br />

up in a quake, provide information<br />

on whether it could be occupied<br />

and if it needs to be assessed<br />

urgently.<br />

Smart ideas for city<br />

Smart Bikes<br />

How do you get around when<br />

you go into the central city?<br />

In a new project, Smart Cities<br />

is looking at including a bike<br />

share system, which has been<br />

successfully trialled by Robert<br />

Henderson on the Metro<br />

network.<br />

Metrocard holders could use<br />

their cards to catch the bus into<br />

the central city and then use it to<br />

hire a bicycle to get around.<br />

Flood Alert<br />

In future, Smart Cities will<br />

look at developing a way of monitoring<br />

rivers and parts of the city<br />

that are susceptible to flooding in<br />

high rainfall so they can see what<br />

is happening quickly.<br />

CBD Pedestrian Flow<br />

Monitoring where people<br />

walk and when can be useful in<br />

planning a city, because it can<br />

lead to finding out why they<br />

choose to go some places and not<br />

others.<br />

Ms McCallum is looking at<br />

installing wi-fi sensors in parts of<br />

the city, particularly in Cathedral<br />

Square and New Regent St, to see<br />

the pedestrian flow.<br />

Sensors have been trialled in<br />

Re:<strong>Star</strong>t Mall to see how it works.<br />

<strong>The</strong> sensors use technology,<br />

such as cellphones or laptops, to<br />

see where people will and won’t<br />

walk, and when, so they could<br />

improve it.<br />

Ms McCallum said they are<br />

completely anonymous and it<br />

was a work in progress. “It’s<br />

going to make this city a much<br />

better city to be in.”<br />

SmartCross<br />

Fancy a game of pong<br />

while you wait to cross the<br />

road?<br />

You may have played the<br />

SmartCross game at the<br />

intersection of Lichfield and<br />

Colombo Sts. But now you can<br />

have a go on the new one next to<br />

the Vodafone building.<br />

Accessible Parking Solution<br />

<strong>The</strong> number of people who use<br />

disability car parks when they are<br />

not allowed has prompted Smart<br />

Cities to find a solution.<br />

It is looking at installing<br />

Bluetooth sensors on disabled car<br />

parks, which pair with a portable<br />

chip given to those who have<br />

passes to use them.<br />

If a vehicle parks in one that<br />

doesn’t have a chip, enforcement<br />

officers would get a notification<br />

and ticket them.<br />

Ms McCallum is planning<br />

on trialling this on a disabled<br />

car park at the city council on<br />

Hereford St first to see if it is successful<br />

before rolling it out.<br />

Eight years jail for attack<br />

on pregnant woman<br />

• By Kurt Bayer<br />

THUrsdaY JanUarY 31 20<strong>13</strong><br />

A FARMER who bashed his<br />

heavily-pregnant ex-partner<br />

with a baseball bat until it<br />

snapped, and she played dead,<br />

has been jailed for more than<br />

eight years for what a judge<br />

called a “gratuitous, brutal and<br />

callous” attack.<br />

Christopher James Buick,<br />

known as Chris, became enraged<br />

that the 23-week pregnant<br />

woman wanted to keep their<br />

baby and launched the “frenzied<br />

attack” in Christchurch earlier<br />

this year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> brutal assault, where<br />

Buick aimed blows at the<br />

woman’s stomach, only stopped<br />

when she lay on the ground and<br />

pretended to be dead.<br />

He hit her so hard the bat<br />

broke in half. It left her with<br />

a fractured skull, severe facial<br />

bruising and lacerations, and a<br />

broken eye socket. <strong>The</strong> unborn<br />

baby escaped uninjured.<br />

Yesterday, the victim told the<br />

district court the horrors of the<br />

savage assault and the longlasting<br />

impact it will have on<br />

her life.<br />

“I will always believe Chris<br />

intended to kill me,” she said in<br />

a victim impact statement read<br />

to the court.<br />

“And the way he left without<br />

checking on me, he thought he<br />

had succeeded.”<br />

She still can’t understand<br />

what sort of man would attack<br />

a woman five months pregnant<br />

with their own child.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re has been “no serious<br />

impacts” on the baby, the court<br />

heard.<br />

Ashburton farm contractor<br />

Buick, 32, and the victim, who<br />

had been long-term friends<br />

and in an on-and-off relationship.<br />

But when she fell pregnant<br />

with their first child, Buick said<br />

he didn’t want her to keep the<br />

baby as he was seeing another<br />

Ashburton woman.<br />

Defence counsel Craig Ruane<br />

today said Buick was known<br />

as a “hard working and well<br />

respected young man” who has<br />

no previous convictions.<br />

In sentencing Buick, who<br />

sobbed in the dock, Judge Stephen<br />

O’Driscoll described the<br />

victim as “a courageous person”<br />

who tried to protect both herself<br />

and her unborn child during the<br />

attack. – NZ Herald<br />

Sex worker<br />

dispute could<br />

go to court<br />

• By Andrew King<br />

A DISPUTE over sex workers<br />

being able to solicit in a<br />

residential area could be tested in<br />

the courts, a Christchurch lawyer<br />

said.<br />

St Albans resident Matt Bonis,<br />

along with solicitor and Labour<br />

candidate for Christchurch<br />

Central Duncan Webb presented<br />

a slide show to the city council<br />

detailing the rubbish, abuse,<br />

complaints and threats they have<br />

received.<br />

Mr Webb told <strong>Star</strong>.kiwi the<br />

dispute lies in the definition of<br />

“commercial activity” set out<br />

in the city council public places<br />

bylaw.<br />

City council head of strategic<br />

policy Helen Beaumont said sex<br />

workers do not use the billboards<br />

and banners that are typical of<br />

other business enterprises.<br />

But Mr Webb said they have<br />

got the definition “wrong” and<br />

the city council could enforce the<br />

bylaw.<br />

He said if it comes down to<br />

residents saying it is commercial<br />

activity, and the city council says<br />

it isn’t, then it will have to be<br />

tested in the courts.<br />

Fighting patients test health staff<br />

• By Gabrielle Stuart<br />

MENTAL HEALTH staff say<br />

they are struggling to control<br />

fighting between patients in<br />

their wards.<br />

It comes as 775 assaults on<br />

Canterbury District Health<br />

Board staff were<br />

reported last year,<br />

an average of two a<br />

day, including 236<br />

assaults at Hillmorton<br />

Hospital.<br />

Toni<br />

Gutschlag<br />

<strong>The</strong> demand<br />

for mental health<br />

services has also<br />

grown, with the acute inpatient<br />

ward almost constantly full in<br />

January and February.<br />

Speaking at a CDHB committee<br />

meeting last week, specialist<br />

mental health services general<br />

manager Toni Gutschlag said<br />

the situation was becoming<br />

“volatile.”<br />

She said an “escalation meeting”<br />

had been planned with the<br />

Ministry of Health this week to<br />

discuss the problem.<br />

“Right now we’ve got major<br />

dynamics where patients are<br />

not getting on, and seeking one<br />

another out to harm each other,”<br />

she said.<br />

She said that was made more<br />

difficult because the mental<br />

health wards were small and<br />

were at full capacity most of the<br />

time.<br />

That made it very difficult to<br />

separate violent patients, she<br />

said.<br />

“If they don’t have enough<br />

space to get away from each<br />

other, the situation becomes<br />

more volatile,” she said.<br />

She said mental health services<br />

were also struggling to recruit<br />

staff, and had “a number of<br />

vacancies and workforce gaps.”<br />

Last month, New Zealand<br />

Nurses Organisation chief executive<br />

Memo Musa raised concerns<br />

that inexperienced staff<br />

were being placed in situations<br />

“they are not able to handle”<br />

because funding was inadequate<br />

and senior staff had left.<br />

Mental health problems seem<br />

to have particularly grown for<br />

Canterbury children and youth,<br />

with the number of new cases<br />

up 55 per cent over the past<br />

three years.<br />

<strong>The</strong> number of Canterbury<br />

children or youth accessing<br />

mental health services grew<br />

from 626 in January to 714 in<br />

February.<br />

<strong>The</strong> situation was made<br />

worse by a number of people<br />

with disabilities being<br />

“inappropriately placed” in<br />

mental health services because<br />

there were no community<br />

disability services appropriate<br />

for them, a report on the issue<br />

said.<br />

Viewpoint<br />

IN THE wake of the Canterbury<br />

earthquakes, Greater<br />

Christchurch was in dire need of<br />

new homes.<br />

THe Government red-zoned<br />

more than 7000 properties on<br />

severely-damaged land to allow<br />

people to move on with their<br />

lives.<br />

THese land decisions and the<br />

widespread earthquake damage<br />

to hundreds of thousands of<br />

homes left the country’s secondbiggest<br />

city with a housing<br />

vacuum.<br />

Fast tracking the overhaul<br />

of Christchurch’s District Plan<br />

enabled the city’s regeneration to<br />

get off the ground more quickly<br />

and efficiently.<br />

Now, Greater Christchurch<br />

has double the amount of space<br />

it needs for new housing for<br />

the next decade and more than<br />

<strong>13</strong>0,000 building consents have<br />

been issued over the past five<br />

years.<br />

Selwyn and Waimakariri<br />

districts have experienced<br />

enormous growth since the<br />

quakes and opening up new<br />

land to development – both for<br />

commercial and residential use –<br />

has seen a construction boom in<br />

the region.<br />

I believe central and local<br />

Government have been<br />

HANDS UP if anyone in<br />

Christchurch who watched the<br />

Erin Brockovich movie back in<br />

2000 ever imagined that this<br />

champion of the underdog<br />

would be in our city telling us to<br />

keep up the fight?<br />

Seventeen years ago, the silver<br />

screen story of a legal executive<br />

who took on the corporate<br />

might of Pacific Gas and Electric<br />

Company on behalf of the people<br />

of Hinkley, California, seemed<br />

about as far removed from our<br />

reality as a movie about a trip to<br />

the moon.<br />

This week it all changed<br />

with Brockovich’s visit to<br />

innovative and progressive<br />

in their thinking since the<br />

devastating quakes.<br />

Last year, the Riccarton<br />

Racecourse Development<br />

Enabling Act 2016 was passed<br />

to allow the development of<br />

Riccarton Racecourse land to go<br />

ahead.<br />

THis legislation is to<br />

Erin Brockovich: Warm, funny and genuinely concerned<br />

Christchurch. She spent time<br />

visiting the houses of people<br />

still dealing with insurance<br />

companies and EQC to settle<br />

their claims, repair their homes<br />

and move on with their lives.<br />

Her verdict on the situation was<br />

that the conditions they’re living<br />

in broke her heart.<br />

development of surplus land held<br />

by the Christchurch Racecourse<br />

Reserve Trust.<br />

THe Riccarton Racecourse<br />

Development Scheme will<br />

supply affordable housing to<br />

Christchurch with requirements<br />

that a minimum of 180 homes<br />

need to sell for less than the<br />

KiwiSaver Home<strong>Star</strong>t cap for<br />

Christchurch, which is currently<br />

$550,000.<br />

THe affordability clause is<br />

integral in providing people<br />

on lower incomes or first-time<br />

buyers with the opportunity to<br />

buy their own home.<br />

THe amount of available<br />

land in Christchurch is a huge<br />

advantage. It means we can focus<br />

on getting people into homes<br />

while making the region a place<br />

where people come to work and<br />

play.<br />

her on Monday night. She<br />

was warm and funny, and her<br />

genuine concern for the plight<br />

of people struggling to get their<br />

homes fixed and move on with<br />

their lives was obvious.<br />

Sometimes it’s easy to fall into<br />

the well-funded Government<br />

and industry spin about how<br />

many houses needed repairing<br />

Readers respond to a<br />

legislation change that<br />

would allow the city<br />

council to decide whether<br />

electric vehicles could<br />

drive in special lanes such<br />

as bus lanes<br />

Ben Sandle – Stupid, just<br />

because it is electric with one<br />

person shouldn’t mean can use<br />

bus lane. Should make better<br />

public transportation.<br />

Tanya Hyde – Terrible idea.<br />

Just make it cheaper to own<br />

and run electric cars and easier<br />

to charge them. Besides most<br />

towns in New Zealand don’t<br />

have the infrastructure to support<br />

special lanes.<br />

Brian J. Dooley – It risks<br />

creating elites. Not many people<br />

can afford an electric car. This<br />

could have more profound<br />

negative issues than might be<br />

anticipated.<br />

Dave Moore – Yes, a special<br />

and how people need to be<br />

patient. Brockovich’s message,<br />

however, was less complicated.<br />

She saw money as the main<br />

reason the process has being<br />

dragged out for so long. People<br />

still living in broken homes<br />

needed answers yesterday, she<br />

said.<br />

I could not agree more. <strong>The</strong><br />

fact that we have thousands<br />

of people who are yet to<br />

have their homes properly<br />

repaired is not acceptable.<br />

Even more unacceptable is the<br />

Government’s unwillingness<br />

to give any kind of timeframe<br />

to people about when they will<br />

lane for less than one per cent<br />

of the driving population, a bus<br />

lane, and a cycle lane. No lanes<br />

for anything else. Genius.<br />

Graeme Palmer – No. <strong>The</strong><br />

best thing the council can do<br />

is provide plenty of charging<br />

points around the city.<br />

Dean Pover – Great idea,<br />

now let’s pinch a whole lot of<br />

golf carts and get ourselves a<br />

convoy.<br />

Rory Kinahan – Yes. Anything<br />

to motivate people to buy<br />

more of them.<br />

Trevor Taylor – Hell no.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y pay nothing towards the<br />

upkeep of our roads. <strong>The</strong>y are<br />

just freeloaders. Give them<br />

nothing.<br />

Jason Gemmill – Absolutely<br />

not.<br />

finally have resolution.<br />

Just last week when<br />

answering questions from me<br />

in Parliament, Gerry Brownlee<br />

backed out of an earlier<br />

commitment from EQC to<br />

have re-repairs sorted by June<br />

this year. Instead, he refused to<br />

commit to any deadline.<br />

People still waiting for their<br />

repairs have been let down by<br />

the National Government which<br />

has instead chosen to spend time<br />

and resources telling people they<br />

should be patient, rather than<br />

fighting for them.<br />

Little River<br />

speed limit<br />

too high<br />

• By Caitlin Miles<br />

A LONG-TIME campaigner for<br />

lower speed limits in Little River is<br />

disappointed that traffic will still<br />

be able to go 60km/h through the<br />

hamlet.<br />

Little River Campground owner<br />

and Love Little River member Marcus<br />

Puentener said reducing the<br />

speed from 70km/h to 60km/h<br />

wasn’t what the community needed.<br />

A 50km/h limit had been sought.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Banks Peninsula Community<br />

Board has recommended the city<br />

council approve the speed reductions<br />

proposed by the New Zealand Transport<br />

Agency.<br />

Currently it is planning to reduce<br />

speed from 70km/h to 60km/h on<br />

Council Hill, Morrisons, Barclays<br />

and Wairewa Pa Rds, where they<br />

intersect with State Highway 75, as<br />

well as through the township.<br />

Mr Puentener set up a petition calling<br />

for the speed limit to be lowered<br />

from 70km/h to 50km/h. More than<br />

1000 people signed it, and it was presented<br />

to NZTA in November 2015.<br />

However, in a review by NZTA on<br />

the current speed limit and an assessment<br />

of the safe and appropriate<br />

speed through the township, it could<br />

only support reducing the speed<br />

limit by 10km/h.<br />

Police complaint finalised<br />

• By Caitlin Miles<br />

A COMPLAINT against<br />

Lyttelton police does not look<br />

like it will be upheld.<br />

Lyttelton resident and former<br />

detective Peter Newsome laid a<br />

complaint with the Minister of<br />

Police Paula Bennett about the<br />

level of service from police in<br />

the area.<br />

He said he made the complaint<br />

after police “fobbed off”<br />

two requests for help.<br />

<strong>The</strong> complaint was handed<br />

over to the Independent Police<br />

Conduct Authority and while<br />

the official decision has not yet<br />

been released, Canterbury area<br />

prevention manager, Acting<br />

Inspector Paul Reeves, said it<br />

looked “likely that it will be<br />

closed as conciliated” after<br />

meeting with Mr Newsome and<br />

the community.<br />

Judge Sir David Carruthers<br />

had been looking at the<br />

complaint from Mr Newsome<br />

and said he regarded the work<br />

carried out by the police to be<br />

“outstanding police work.”<br />

“​<strong>The</strong>re were personal meetings<br />

with Mr Newsome and<br />

then a community meeting<br />

which involved a dozen<br />

residents. This was obviously a<br />

huge success,” Sir David said.<br />

However, Mr Newsome disagreed<br />

with those findings.<br />

“It wasn’t a huge success . . . it<br />

hasn’t reassured me,” he said.<br />

While he said it was good to<br />

see the police “front up” to the<br />

community, he didn’t think it<br />

was well-attended, or that it<br />

reassured the residents.<br />

Mr Newsome wants to see<br />

the Lyttelton station staffed<br />

24/7, but Canterbury metro<br />

COMPLAINT: Former<br />

detective Peter Newsome<br />

may not have his complaint<br />

against Lyttelton police<br />

upheld.<br />

PHOTO: MARTIN HUNTER ​<br />

commander Superintendent<br />

Lane Todd said the police don’t<br />

have the resources to do that.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>y explained themselves,<br />

but they need more police in<br />

low crime areas like Lyttelton,”<br />

Mr Newsome said.<br />

Acting Inspector Reeves said<br />

they realised from the meeting<br />

that they needed to be better at<br />

communicating with residents<br />

and keeping in touch with<br />

people.<br />

If Mr Newsome‘s complaint<br />

is not upheld, he said he wasn’t<br />

sure what he will do next but<br />

he wasn’t finished with the<br />

issue.<br />

“I need to have a think about<br />

what I’ll do next, but I’m not<br />

done yet,” he said.

Dispute over high country fence payment<br />

• By Tom Doudney<br />

CONCERNS HAVE been<br />

raised after ratepayers’ money<br />

was allocated to pay for a fence<br />

which critics say would have<br />

assisted its American leaseholder<br />

to intensify farming on a high<br />

country station.<br />

Environment Canterbury<br />

proposed putting $44,236<br />

towards fencing off a section of<br />

Cave Stream and associated 35ha<br />

wetlands at Flock Hill Station<br />

in spite of its own ecologist Dr<br />

Philip Grove recommending the<br />

project not be funded.<br />

<strong>The</strong> funding, from ECan’s<br />

Immediate Steps programme<br />

for protecting<br />

freshwater biodiversity,<br />

was then<br />

approved by the<br />

Selwyn Waihora<br />

Zone Committee<br />

at its March 7<br />

meeting on the<br />

John<br />

Sunckell<br />

basis that the<br />

fence would protect<br />

water quality<br />

and biodiversity<br />

in the stream and wetlands.<br />

Flock Hill’s leaseholder Flock<br />

Hill Holdings, owned by Jim<br />

Foster and Vince Saunders of<br />

Los Angeles-based Coast Range<br />

New Zealand, had applied for resource<br />

consent from the Selwyn<br />

District Council for vegetation<br />

clearance on nearby terraces so<br />

that it could intensify grazing<br />

on the land. It proposed fencing<br />

off Cave Stream as a way of<br />

mitigating the associated loss of<br />

biodiversity on the terraces.<br />

Last week the leaseholders<br />

withdrew the resource consent<br />

application after considering the<br />

cost of a landscape assessment<br />

which the district council had<br />

requested.<br />

<strong>The</strong> zone committee has since<br />

decided to review funding the<br />

fence after learning of the consent<br />

application’s withdrawal and<br />

hearing concerns by the Upper<br />

Waimakariri Group and Department<br />

of Conservation plant<br />

ecologist Nicholas Head and<br />

water management co-ordinator<br />

John Benn who attended its<br />

meeting on Tuesday last week.<br />

Mr Head said the Cave Stream<br />

terraces had long been recognised<br />

as a site of significant ecological<br />

value with highly significant<br />

plant communities and land<br />

forms and the fencing project<br />

would assist with the application<br />

for vegetation clearance.<br />

“I struggle to see how this application<br />

can be consistent with<br />

ECan’s mandate,” he said.<br />

Mr Benn read out a letter<br />

he had received from Dr<br />

Grove which stated that he had<br />

CONTENTIOUS:<br />

A project to<br />

fence a section<br />

of Cave Stream<br />

on Flock Hill<br />

Station is under<br />

fire.<br />

reviewed the project and recommended<br />

that it not be funded.<br />

Dr Grove was “frustrated” that<br />

the funding had been approved<br />

and he suggested that DOC and<br />

others continued to oppose such<br />

projects.<br />

“At our ECan staff end it is important<br />

that we clearly articulate<br />

to the zone committee why these<br />

sorts of projects do not help deliver<br />

on national or regional objectives<br />

for biodiversity and ecosystem<br />

health protection and apply<br />

a clear and unequivocal message<br />

to both project applicants and the<br />

zone committee that they should<br />

not receive ratepayer-funded support,”<br />

Dr Grove wrote.<br />

ECan director science<br />

Dr Stefanie Rixecker said the<br />

concerns raised by DOC and<br />

others as well as the withdrawal<br />

of the consent application would<br />

be taken into account when ECan<br />

revisited the fencing proposal.<br />

ECan’s Mid Canterbury councillor<br />

John Sunckell defended the<br />

project, saying it had received<br />

a very high rating when going<br />

through an assessment process<br />

to determine if funding should<br />

be granted.<br />

He did not regard what Flock<br />

Hill Holdings wanted to do as<br />

intensification because it would<br />

be returning to similar stocking<br />

levels that were in place up until<br />

25 years ago when wilding pines<br />

began to encroach on the land.<br />

Cr Sunckell said Flock Hill<br />

Holdings had already done “a<br />

magnificent job” with its previous<br />

environmental restoration<br />

work on the station, which is<br />

owned by Canterbury University.<br />

Selwyn mayor Sam Broughton<br />

said he would need to know<br />

more about the project before<br />

commenting on whether the<br />

funding was appropriate.<br />

Flock Hill representative Chris<br />

Cochrane did not respond to<br />

a request from the <strong>The</strong> <strong>Star</strong> for<br />

comment.<br />

<strong>The</strong> zone committee will consider<br />

the proposal on May 2.<br />

Our People<br />

Brewer with the golden touch<br />

Three Boys brewer Eli<br />

Haines has just won<br />

gold at the New World<br />

Beer & Cider Awards<br />

for his new brew,<br />

West Coast Red IPA.<br />

He spoke to Gabrielle<br />

Stuart about what went<br />

into a good brew<br />

Latest Christchurch news at www.<br />

Thursday <strong>April</strong> <strong>13</strong> <strong>2017</strong><br />

Eli Haines<br />

How did you get into brewing?<br />

Well, I left high school all<br />

ready to go into forestry, because<br />

I was interested in organic<br />

chemistry and things like that,<br />

and I already had an interest in<br />

beer. I was entirely enrolled, just<br />

needed to do the student loan<br />

paperwork, which I was set to do<br />

the next week. But then I met the<br />

head brewer from Cassels & Sons<br />

at the Woolston farmers’ market.<br />

I got talking to him and he said<br />

he was looking for someone, so I<br />

decided to forego university and<br />

take on an apprenticeship-type<br />

role at Cassels.<br />

What did your family think<br />

of that?<br />

My dad was less impressed, my<br />

mum liked it a bit more. But they<br />

both liked that I was going into<br />

work in an apprenticeship-like<br />

role, not just joining a circus or<br />

something.<br />

And what was the job like,<br />

initially?<br />

So my initial role was tidying<br />

up and scraping labels off bottles,<br />

that kind of thing. <strong>The</strong>n I moved<br />

up to scrubbing tanks and doing<br />

more of the hands on side of<br />

brewing.<br />

So wait – being allowed to<br />

clean the tanks was a promotion?<br />

This isn’t sounding very<br />

glamorous.<br />

That’s right – but the cleaning<br />

is very important, because everywhere<br />

the beer touches needs<br />

to be kept sterile. I still do a lot<br />

of cleaning of the tanks, so I’ve<br />

just graduated to cleaning bigger<br />

bottles, pretty much. That was<br />

seven years ago now, so I worked<br />

there for three years and did<br />

qualifications on the side, and<br />

then applied for a role at Three<br />

Boys and took on a chief brewertype<br />

role.<br />

Could you explain to me in<br />

layman’s terms the science of<br />

brewing a good beer?<br />

In terms of what makes a good<br />

beer versus a bad one, the main<br />

thing is hygiene and sterility,<br />

only letting in one specific yeast,<br />

rather than letting in a lot of<br />

organisms. We take barley and<br />

soak that in water, which releases<br />

the enzymes which changes<br />

starches into sugars. <strong>The</strong>n we<br />

take the sugars out and sterilise<br />

them by boiling, and that’s when<br />

we add hops for bittering and<br />

stability and flavour. We call<br />

that brewer’s wort, it’s a syrup<br />

with hops in it, essentially. We<br />

then ferment that with a certain<br />

yeast strain, which takes sugar<br />

and converts it to alcohol, and at<br />

that point you can start calling<br />

it beer. <strong>The</strong>n we mature it and it<br />

becomes clear and carbonated.<br />

How long does it take?<br />

To make the wort it takes<br />

one full day of brewing, then it<br />

ferments for about a week and<br />

conditions for about two weeks.<br />

So about three weeks in total. It’s<br />

a lot faster than spirits or wine.<br />

How do you develop your<br />

recipes?<br />

We have a little trial brew kit<br />

which produces about 50 litres at<br />

a time. So I’ll make a trial brew<br />

and test it with the team here<br />

and with my family and friends.<br />

If it’s good I scale it up, and if it’s<br />

bad we never talk about it again.<br />

What are some of the brews<br />

you haven’t taken to market?<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are quite a few where the<br />

flavours work but we don’t think<br />

it would sell. I did a trial brew<br />

of an apple pie beer, which was<br />

really good, but we couldn’t see it<br />

selling particularly well.<br />

That sounds delicious.<br />

Well that’s good – I’ve got one<br />

customer then. At the moment<br />

I’m trialling a peaches and cream<br />

IPA, so if that’s any good you’ll<br />

see it in the shop. Usually the bad<br />

ones don’t get too far. I’ll sometimes<br />

come up with weird flavours<br />

in my head and talk to my<br />

boss about them, but he tends to<br />

shut the worst ones down.<br />

And tell me about your new<br />

award-winning brew?<br />

It’s a West Coast Red IPA. <strong>The</strong><br />

west coast of America is famed<br />

for intense hops, so I sourced<br />

a bunch of hops there, but also<br />

used a lot of caramel type malts.<br />

It’s a mix of sweet caramel<br />

toffee with these really intense<br />

American piney hops, with some<br />

hints of citrus and passion. So it’s<br />

a really strong blend of flavours<br />

that balance well together.<br />

People seem to be a lot more<br />

adventurous now with their<br />

beers.<br />

It means we can be a bit<br />

crazier with flavours and people<br />

are more accepting of it. So it’s<br />

PROUD: Eli Haines with<br />

the West Coast Red IPA -<br />

caramel type malts.<br />

Above – <strong>The</strong> Three Boys<br />

Brewery in Woolston.<br />

PHOTOS; GEOFF SLOAN<br />

always a good thing more people<br />

are into beers, but on the other<br />

hand I have had a lot of very<br />

average home brew.<br />

People have been brewing<br />

beer for hundreds of years – do<br />

you think those ancient beers<br />

would taste the same?<br />

<strong>The</strong>y would probably be along<br />

the same lines, because it has<br />

always been malt and hops and<br />

water for a long time now. But<br />

some of them would be quite<br />

strange because they didn’t have<br />

a knowledge of microbiology like<br />

we do now, so they were leaving<br />

that really important flavour step<br />

of the process completely up to<br />

chance, just whatever microflora<br />

was in the area at the time.<br />

And tell me a bit about your<br />

interests outside work?<br />

I enjoy surfing, and I host a<br />

radio show on RDU, Blue Mondays.<br />

We play alternative stuff, so<br />

I’m quite involved in the music<br />

scene in Christchurch, always<br />

looking for new music.<br />

And when you go out<br />

yourself, what beer would you<br />

drink?<br />

I really enjoying tasting other<br />

beer and trying something new.<br />

But sometimes you want the<br />

comfort of drinking something<br />

you know, so right now for me<br />

that would be our Three Boys<br />

lager, it’s a great beer.

Unlocking the secrets of Tasmania<br />

Thursday <strong>April</strong> <strong>13</strong> <strong>2017</strong><br />

• By Mike Yardley<br />

DOCKING IN Hobart on a<br />

cruise ship is not just a sweetly<br />

scenic affair, but a stunningly<br />

effortless way to immerse yourself<br />

in the heart of the city.<br />

I regained my land legs on an<br />

eye-pleasing walk around the<br />

historic waterfront, in Sullivans<br />

Cove, where 19th-century<br />

sandstone warehouses brim with<br />

dockside cafes, artist studios and<br />

eateries. If you’re visiting on a<br />

Saturday, soak up the extravagant<br />

market flavours of Salamanca –<br />

Australia’s largest outdoor market.<br />

Also on the waterfront, pay<br />

your respects to the beautifully<br />

sculpted monument dedicated<br />

to the legendary explorer, Abel<br />

Tasman. It’s one of an increasing<br />

array of sublime sculptures, dotting<br />

the harbour edge.<br />

My chief assignment was to<br />

head down the Derwent River, to<br />

visit Australia’s most talked about<br />

museum. <strong>The</strong> Museum of Old<br />

and New Art, MONA, harbours<br />

a subterranean storehouse of eyepopping<br />

eccentricity. Six-yearsold,<br />

MONA was the brain child of<br />

Tasmanian, who made a fortune<br />

fine-tuning algorithms to beat<br />

bookies and casinos at their own<br />

game. Nicknamed “the subversive<br />

adult Disneyland”, entering<br />

MONA is more like falling down<br />

a rabbit hole.<br />

From the foyer, a spiral staircase<br />

leads you 17m underground, into<br />

a cave-like space, brimming with<br />

art and objects loosely themed<br />

around sex, evolution and death.<br />

Standing in the basement, I gazed<br />

TRANQUIL: <strong>The</strong> dock in Hobart sits in a historic waterfront area of standstone warehouses and eateries. Right – Magic to Do, the<br />

Princess Emerald’s signature production.<br />

in awe of the gigantic installation<br />

called “Bit.fall,” a rain-painting<br />

machine created by German artist<br />

Julius Popp.<br />

This multi-million dollar contraption<br />

comprises 128 computercontrolled<br />

nozzles, releasing<br />

cascading droplets in the shape of<br />

trending phrases harvested daily<br />

from news websites. This pulsing<br />

waterfall of words, streamed<br />

from real-time Google searches,<br />

is a clever, cascading ode to the<br />

unrelenting news cycle.<br />

I was lulled into a false sense<br />

of complacency. As I walked on,<br />

mulling whether MONA’s reputation<br />

for shockability was overhyped,<br />

I was suddenly confronted<br />

by the chocolate sculpture of the<br />

remains of a Chechen suicide<br />

bomber. Stephen Shanabrook’s<br />

cast of a disembowelled suicide<br />

bomber rendered in chocolate is<br />

unsettling.<br />

One level up, a wall has been<br />

lined with more than 100 porcelain<br />

moulds of female genitalia,<br />

while another wall boasts a gigantic<br />

image of a man engaged in<br />

bestiality. It’s not hard to see why<br />

some art snobs sniff at MONA’s<br />

obsession with smut.<br />

But the centre-piece of MONA<br />

that repulses and engrosses in<br />

equal doses is called Cloaca Professional<br />

by Belgian artist, Wim<br />

Delvoye. This room-sized machine<br />

of giant test tubes, pumps<br />

and glass receptacles parodies<br />

the digestive tract of humans in<br />

lurid detail. Nicknamed the poop<br />

SUBVERSIVE: <strong>The</strong> Museum of Old and New Art incorporates eye-popping eccentricity<br />

machine, it’s fed twice a day, and<br />

you can watch the full digestive<br />

process of food unfold over three<br />

hours. I didn’t stay for the final<br />

act, but apparently the bi-product<br />

is absolutely pungent.<br />

Prior to reaching Hobart, I had<br />

crossed the Tasman with Princess<br />

Cruises. Notorious for offering<br />

cruisers the tumble-dryer ocean<br />

experience, I’d heard plenty of<br />

dire reports. But my two days<br />

at sea across the Tasman, were<br />

relatively plain sailing – no brown<br />

paper bags were required.<br />

Before reaching Hobart, the roll<br />

call of on-board entertainment<br />

made very short work of those<br />

two days at sea. <strong>The</strong>re were Pilates<br />

and yoga classes, sports tournaments<br />

and quizzes, photography<br />

and health seminars, star-gazing<br />

courses and movies under the<br />

stars, on the giant screens crowning<br />

the pool deck.<br />

Sea days are also a fabulous opportunity<br />

to sneak a peek behind<br />

the scenes, on the tours of the<br />

galley and bridge. I marvelled at<br />

the culinary miracles crafted in<br />

the ship’s galley, while the sheer<br />

magnitude of cutting-edge technology<br />

deployed on the bridge is<br />

an eye-opener.<br />

But the extensive live entertainment<br />

that unfurls throughout the<br />

ship, was seriously impressive.<br />

Princess Cruises has partnered<br />

with <strong>The</strong> Voice to present <strong>The</strong><br />

Voice of the Ocean, featuring a<br />

competitive cast of passengers<br />

battling against each other for<br />

supreme honours. <strong>The</strong> quality<br />

was exceptional.<br />

However, the signature production<br />

was a Broadway-calibre<br />

musical called Magic to Do,<br />

created for Princess Cruises by<br />

the producer of Wicked, Stephen<br />

Schwartz. So even if the Tasman<br />

is turbulent, rest assured, you’ll be<br />

thoroughly entertained.<br />

FAST FACTS<br />

•Princess Cruises operates<br />

a series of transtasman<br />

cruises over the summer<br />

season, with five ships<br />

currently home-ported<br />

But it’s sudoku with a<br />

twist: <strong>The</strong> numbers in<br />

each heavily outlined<br />

set of squares, called<br />

cages, must produce the<br />

number in the top corner.<br />

For example, 5+ means<br />

the numbers add up to 5,<br />

9x means the numbers<br />

multiply to equal 9.<br />

TIP: Numbers can be repeated in a cage, as long as they are not in the<br />

same line or row.<br />

GRAPEFRUIT is one of<br />

winter’s colourful citrus<br />

jewels. Packed with<br />

antioxidants just when we<br />

need them, the grapefruit<br />

is a popular fruit tree to<br />

have in the home garden.<br />

<strong>The</strong> fruit may be an<br />

acquired taste as it can be<br />

rather sour, but there are<br />

a few tricks to draw out<br />

its sweetness.<br />

In the United States,<br />

where grapefruit are a<br />

breakfast staple, they are<br />

much sweeter because<br />

of the way they are<br />

grown. Most commercial<br />

grapefruit orchards are<br />

in the hot states, such as<br />

Florida, where they are<br />

grown with irrigation. In<br />

spite of this, grapefruit<br />

are one of the most coldtolerant<br />

citrus fruits and<br />

will withstand some frost.<br />

When selecting the<br />

place to plant your tree,<br />

find the hottest part of<br />

your property, ideally<br />

with a masonry wall<br />

to release heat to help<br />

sweeten the fruit.<br />

To get the most<br />

sweetness and ripeness<br />

from the fruit, leave it<br />

on the tree for a long<br />

time – it can take up to 14<br />

months to ripen properly.<br />

<strong>The</strong> variety you choose<br />

is also important.<br />

Wheeny grapefruit takes<br />

a long time to produce<br />

fruit – this variety<br />

tends to produce fruit<br />

biennially.<br />

Citrus needs full sun<br />

and ample moisture, but<br />

reasonable drainage. It<br />

needs a spot with good<br />

airflow but not windy,<br />

and it doesn’t like to be<br />

too crowded.<br />

Golden special is always<br />

productive and the<br />

fruit not too sour. This<br />

grapefruit is a breakfast<br />

staple, sweetened with a<br />

little honey or a sprinkle<br />

of raw sugar.<br />

Citrus care<br />

Citrus are surface<br />

rooters so they don’t<br />

do well with grass<br />

growing around them,<br />

particularly when they<br />

are young. It is much<br />

better to lightly skim the<br />

grass from the surface<br />

without disturbing<br />

the roots of the tree,<br />

removing the competition<br />

to beyond the “drip line”<br />

if you can.<br />

Give your flower bed<br />

some life when it is cold<br />

• By Henri Ham<br />

IT’S EASY to think that<br />

impending winter means<br />

no more colour in the<br />

garden.<br />

But it doesn’t need to be<br />

this way. <strong>The</strong>re are plenty<br />

of annuals which love<br />

cooler, shadier conditions<br />

and will provide the colour<br />

your garden misses over<br />

winter.<br />

Cineraria is one such<br />

plant and produces striking<br />

blue, white, red and<br />

purplish blooms. Primula,<br />

polyanthus, pansies, antirrhinums<br />

(otherwise known<br />

as snapdragons) and wallflowers<br />

are other examples<br />

of brightly coloured annuals<br />

that don’t mind a little<br />

cold weather. <strong>The</strong>se ones<br />

come in a range of colours<br />

like pink, blue, yellow,<br />

white and more.<br />

Once you’ve got your<br />

seedlings you need to find<br />

a shady, damp spot to grow<br />

them in. Cineraria doesn’t<br />

like frost, so under a tree<br />

is usually a good place to<br />

plant.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y like similar growing<br />

conditions to impatiens.<br />

So if you planted<br />

these with us in November,<br />

simply take them out, dig<br />

over the soil and plant your<br />

cineraria in the same spot.<br />

Once planted, keep an<br />

eye out for caterpillars –<br />

VIBRANT: Cineraria<br />

likes cool conditions.<br />

simply pick them off, or<br />

spray with an insecticide.<br />

And watch out for slugs.<br />

Lastly, be careful not to<br />

over water. Because you<br />

will have planted in the<br />

shade and the weather<br />

is cooler as we head into<br />

winter, they won’t need<br />

as much water as plants<br />

growing in full sun.<br />

<strong>The</strong>n sit back and wait<br />

for your arrival of colour in<br />

around six to eight weeks –<br />

depending on the warmth<br />

of your soil at the time of<br />

planting.<br />

A<br />

Q<br />

When is the best time to cut down or cut back perennials for winter?<br />

Today’s winning question came from Barry.<br />

Congratulations!<br />

Most perennials are usually cut back in late <strong>April</strong>/early May when the top growth has died down. It is<br />

also an ideal time to lift and divide your perennials where overcrowding has occurred.<br />

Not all perennials die down in autumn; for instance with evergreen perennials, some pruning is<br />

required to remove old growth that has produced the previous season’s fl owers. Doing this will enable the<br />

plant to produce healthy new shoots in spring that will carry the fl owers for that season.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are a wide selection of fl owering perennials available in garden centres from <strong>April</strong>/May. Some varieties<br />

you can try are; Alstroemeria, Asters, Astilbe, Cannas, Iris, Nemesia, Pansies, Phlox, Polyanthus, Primulas and<br />

Snapdragons.<br />

<strong>Star</strong>t planting your winter prennials now. Prepare the soil fi rst by adding plenty of fresh Daltons Compost along<br />

with Daltons Premium Flower Bed Mix, and thoroughly work it into the existing soil.<br />

Most perennials prefer a sunny well drained site, however there are some that thrive in diffi cult shady or semishady<br />

spots in your garden, for example Hellebores or Hostas. For more advice and varieties to grow, read the<br />

<strong>The</strong> Meaning of Easter<br />

Fluffy rabbits, baby chicks, candy hunts and coloured eggs<br />

represent the images of Easter. Beautifully decorated baskets<br />

filled with a variety of chocolates create lifelong memories for<br />

children, while the tantalising aroma of hot cross buns lingers<br />

in the air. For many these thoughts are the first things that<br />

usually come to mind, but they don’t represent the history<br />

behind the reason we celebrate Easter each year.<br />

What exactly is the meaning of Easter and why does the world<br />

recognize and celebrate this historic event?<br />

Easter is the first major holiday of the New Year and represents<br />

a major religious overtone for many.<br />

Easter is the holiday that commemorates the central event<br />

of the Christian faith: the resurrection of Jesus Christ three<br />

days after his death by crucifixion. All major branches of<br />

Christianity observe the holiday. Easter occurs the Sunday<br />

after Good Friday and is the centerpiece of the Christian faith.<br />

<strong>The</strong> religious history behind the Easter weekend shows<br />

evidence that Christians originally celebrated the resurrection<br />

of Christ every Sunday, with observances including scripture<br />

readings, psalms, partaking of the Eucharist and kneeling<br />

prayers.<br />

At some point within the first two centuries, it because<br />

customary to celebrate Easter only one day each year. Many<br />

of the religious observances of Easter were taken from the<br />

Jewish Passover.<br />

36, will present three major<br />

shows at the Isaac <strong>The</strong>atre Royal<br />

this year.<br />

A Broadway-themed variety<br />

concert, a popular musical and<br />

a comedy about four Kiwis<br />

embarking on a trip to Italy are<br />

all on the cards for McDonald<br />

this year.<br />

Broadway to the West End,<br />

BIG SHOWS: Grease is one of many shows Ben McDonald<br />

has presented in the city and around the country.<br />

be staged and produced by the<br />

Rangiora resident this year.<br />

Having a passion for creating<br />

opportunities for performers<br />

McDonald said the city is one<br />

of the strongest in the country<br />

for New Zealand theatre particularly<br />

since the February 22,<br />

2011, earthquake.<br />

Even at a time when there was<br />

little performing arts in the city<br />

post-earthquake, McDonald<br />

saw an opportunity to set up a<br />

make-shift theatre in Hagley<br />

Park.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Canterbury Celebration<br />

<strong>The</strong>atre was set up for singers,<br />

dancers and musicians to<br />

perform to audiences of 200<br />

people twice a day and ran for<br />

about a month shortly after the<br />

earthquake.<br />

<strong>The</strong> marquee theatre was so<br />

successful McDonald decided<br />

to run another season at Hagley<br />

Park and Riccarton Bush.<br />

“It was a wonderful thing<br />

to be part of . . . there were no<br />

other venues at all. It was just<br />

something to do,” he said.<br />

In spite of many theatre companies<br />

in the city often undertaking<br />

financially viable shows,<br />

McDonald believes there is a<br />

market for “older” shows such as<br />

<strong>The</strong> Sound of Music in the city.<br />

“That is something we do that<br />

the likes of the operatic and<br />

consortium shows won’t touch<br />

because they want to do the big<br />

modern shows,” he said.<br />

In spite of not taking on a<br />

stage career, McDonald enjoyed<br />

his time at NASDA and said he<br />

now often employs a lot of the<br />

graduates from the school.<br />

“I couldn’t have done a better<br />

thing. It didn’t teach me what<br />

I am doing now but I couldn’t<br />

have done anything else. I am<br />

very fond of NASDA,” he said.<br />

City composer<br />

for prestigious<br />

workshop<br />

• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />

ONE OF the city’s most<br />

promising composers will travel<br />

to New York to study the art of<br />

orchestral music for film.<br />

Matt Everingham, 22, has<br />

been accepted into New York<br />

University/ASCAP’s film scoring<br />

summer workshop.<br />

He has been selected to<br />

study with musicians from all<br />

around the world and learn<br />

from well-known composers<br />

including Mark Snow next<br />

month.<br />

At the end of the workshop<br />

musicians on the course will<br />

arrange a piece of music to be<br />

recorded with the New York<br />

University orchestra.<br />

“I have always been interested<br />

in how music tells stories . . .<br />

how music can narrate storylines<br />

and emphasise things you<br />

wouldn’t normally thing,” he<br />

said.<br />

He has made a mark in the<br />

city’s musical theatre industry at<br />

a relatively young age, playing the<br />

piano, directing and composing<br />

for companies including <strong>The</strong><br />

Sharp price for<br />

new Impreza<br />

• By Ross Kiddie<br />

SUBARU IMPREZA: Stacked with value features..<br />

THIRTEEN YEARS ago<br />

I guided an acquaintance<br />

into a new car, it was a<br />

Subaru Impreza and it was<br />

a car which was priced at<br />

$25,000 with four-wheeldrive<br />

and 2-litre engine.<br />

My friend still has that<br />

car and it has now travelled<br />

fault-free over 200,000km,<br />

scheduled maintenance has<br />

been the only service cost.<br />

I remember writing at<br />

the time how much of a<br />

bargain that car was, and<br />

if finances at the time had<br />

allowed, I may well have<br />

purchased an Impreza as<br />

well.<br />

Well, nothing has<br />

changed, I still can’t afford<br />

a new car and now Subaru<br />

has another new Impreza<br />

available at a budget price.<br />

For just $5000 more than<br />

the new price in 2004, the<br />

new-generation model<br />

represents amazing value,<br />

and it is stacked with value<br />

features, items which you<br />

wouldn’t ordinarily expect<br />

in a budget car.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new generation<br />

model gets Eye-sight driver<br />

assist technology, a camerabased<br />

system which is<br />

linked to adaptive cruise<br />

control, lane departure<br />

warning, pre-collision assist<br />

and pedestrian avoidance.<br />

Other features for comfort<br />

and convenience include<br />

automatic stop-start as a<br />

fuel saving measure, keyless<br />

entry and ignition, Apple<br />

Car Play and Android<br />

Auto capability, along with<br />

the usual features modern<br />

cars include as a matter of<br />

course.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new Impreza still has<br />

the traditional 2-litre, flatfour<br />

(boxer) engine. It has<br />

been developed to a point<br />

where it is state-of-the-art<br />

in terms of power outputs,<br />

emission control and fuel<br />

efficiency. In terms of<br />

figures, the quad-camshaft<br />

unit is rated at 115kW and<br />

196Nm, while a 6.6-litre<br />

per 100km/h (42mpg)<br />

combined cycle fuel usage<br />

average is claimed by<br />

Subaru.<br />

That works well with the<br />

8l/100km (35mpg) figure<br />

showing on the comprehensive<br />

trip computer,<br />

along with a 5l/100km<br />

(56mpg) instantaneous<br />

figure cruising the 100km/h<br />

legal limit (engine speed<br />

1600rpm).<br />

Drive is channelled to<br />

all four wheels through<br />

a continuously variable<br />

automatic transmission.<br />

Not only does the fourwheel-drive<br />

system<br />

alleviate the fear of grip loss<br />

on loose surfaces, there is a<br />

lot of natural grip supplied<br />

on the seal, the Impreza<br />

has handling ability which<br />

is unrealistic for this class<br />

of car.<br />

In the first instance, grip<br />

is supplied by 205/50 x 17in<br />

Bridgestone Turanaza tyres,<br />

and even though they aren’t<br />

Bridgestone’s sport specification<br />

rubber, the tyres<br />

have prodigious grip. If you<br />

add in a flat and controlled<br />

body balance and drive<br />

channelled constantly<br />

through to all wheels, the<br />

handling balance is biased<br />

towards sporty.<br />

• Price – Subaru<br />

Impreza, $29,990<br />

• Dimensions – Length,<br />

4460mm; width,<br />

1775mm; height,<br />

1480mm<br />

• Configuration – Fourcylinder,<br />

four-wheeldrive,<br />

1995cc, 115kW,<br />

196Nm, continuously<br />

variable automatic.<br />

• Performance –<br />

0-100km/h, 9.3sec<br />

• Fuel usage –<br />

6.6l/100km<br />

That comes without the<br />

springs and dampers being<br />

overly firmed, ride quality<br />

is still paramount to the<br />

Subaru way of manufacture.<br />

I took the test car on<br />

a loop that took in both<br />

sealed and unsealed surfaces<br />

and I’m pleased to<br />

report that for what would<br />

be deemed an everyday<br />

family sedan, the Impreza<br />

imparts a sporty handling<br />

sensation.<br />

Power is directed freely<br />

through the transmission.<br />

In this form the Impreza<br />

doesn’t get the turbocharging<br />

system of its WRX<br />

stablemates, but it is an<br />

honest, punchy engine. I’ve<br />

written many times how<br />

much natural torque horizontally-opposed<br />

engines<br />

develop, and the Impreza’s<br />

naturally-aspirated unit is<br />

a honey.<br />

In my introduction I<br />

mentioned the high level of<br />

specification. Another useful<br />

feature are the steering<br />

wheel-mounted paddles<br />

which the driver can use to<br />

initiate ratio changes within<br />

the CVT system. <strong>The</strong>re’s<br />

also a sequential system<br />

at the main gearshift lever<br />

itself, but as a driver you<br />

can be lured into a sporty<br />

sensation if you utilise the<br />

paddles.<br />

However, first and foremost,<br />

the Impreza caters<br />

for the family unit. While<br />

sedans are fast losing popularity,<br />

I’m still a bit of a fan<br />

and I’m quite smitten with<br />

Subaru product; together<br />

I’d be sold on the Impreza<br />

in this form.<br />

On-board comfort is<br />

high and space for three<br />

rear occupants isn’t overly<br />

compromised by compact<br />

exterior dimensions. Up<br />

front the seats are body<br />

forming and have a vast<br />

range of adjustment and,<br />

as you would expect from<br />

Subaru, the controls fall<br />

easily to hand.<br />

Subaru’s line-up isn’t<br />

extensive, but the company<br />

is far more than a global<br />

niche market player. All<br />

of the models offered here<br />

are functional and practical,<br />

each designed for a<br />

different role. <strong>The</strong> Impreza<br />

is there to tempt as an entry<br />

level car into the brand.<br />

Just like my friend, those<br />

who do choose to buy Subaru<br />

will be rewarded with<br />

reliability, functionality and<br />

a high level of safety, much<br />

of the latter attributed to<br />

the stability and grip fourwheel-drive<br />

offers.<br />

You’d had better be quick,<br />

though, from what I’ve<br />

heard through industry<br />

sources the Impreza in<br />

this form is only available<br />

in limited numbers and is<br />

selling fast.<br />

Raiders to test Warriors defensive resolve<br />

THE WARRIORS are growing<br />

in confidence after consecutive<br />

wins – but back-rower Ryan<br />

Hoffman says Saturday’s away<br />

clash with Canberra will provide<br />

a thorough test of their ability.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Warriors attacking play<br />

has begun to blossom over the<br />

last fortnight but it’s their much<br />

improved defence that has<br />

earned crucial victories over the<br />

Gold Coast and Parramatta.<br />

Confidence and belief is<br />

growing throughout the side but<br />

Hoffman knows the flamboyant<br />

Raiders will test their defensive<br />

resolve after racking up <strong>13</strong> tries<br />

in the last two weeks in big wins<br />

over the Eels and Titans.<br />

“I’d rather be going in there<br />

with two wins rather than two<br />

losses,” said Hoffman.<br />

“Canberra is certainly a very<br />

tough road trip but we’ve got<br />

some confidence and we’re<br />

certainly looking forward to the<br />

challenge.”<br />

After managing just one win<br />

from the first four rounds, the<br />

Warriors have improved their<br />

record to be three-and-three<br />

after six games to occupy 10th<br />

spot on the premiership ladder.<br />

<strong>The</strong> turnaround in the last<br />

three weeks has been encouraging,<br />

with the Warriors limiting<br />

both the Dragons and Eels to<br />

one second-half try each, and<br />

holding the Titans scoreless<br />

through the final 40 minutes of<br />

last week’s come-from-behind<br />

win.<br />

“Parramatta have got a lot of<br />

points in them and we managed<br />

to keep them to 10 points so our<br />

defence is coming along,” said<br />

Hoffman.<br />

“We still have areas to improve<br />

but we’re certainly heading in<br />

the right direction.”<br />

Coach Stephen Kearney is<br />

satisfied with the Warriors improved<br />

tackling but knows there<br />

will be periods in every match<br />

where his players will be tested<br />

as the opposition rides a swing<br />

in momentum.<br />

“We’ve got one of the real<br />

challenges in the NRL at the moment,<br />

going to play a Canberra<br />

team, the way they’re playing,”<br />

he said.<br />

“It’s about making sure that we<br />

prepare well to perform well.”<br />

Former distance runner makes a splash in triathlon<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

A SUCCESSFUL background in<br />

middle distance running looks<br />

to have set Southshore triathlete<br />

Ari Graham on a path to glory.<br />

Graham, 18, won the recent<br />

Sea2Sky Challenge in Sumner,<br />

the latest of many achievements.<br />

She competed in last year’s national<br />

track and field championships<br />

in Dunedin, winning both<br />

the under-18 800m and 1500m<br />

titles. She is also a champion<br />

cross-country runner and has<br />

previously represented New Zealand<br />

at secondary school level.<br />

After trying her hand at a<br />

couple of school triathlons she<br />

made the bold move to turn her<br />

full attention to triathlon and it’s<br />

now paying dividends.<br />

Graham has taken a gap year<br />

following her final year at St Andrew’s<br />

College and is currently<br />

working part-time and training<br />

full-time with the Canterbury<br />

Triathlon Academy.<br />

Over the summer, she competed<br />

in the National Junior Series,<br />

which is contested between the<br />

top under-19-year-olds in the<br />

country over five events. Graham<br />

Two codes for coach<br />

• By Gordon Findlater<br />

MARTIN Field-Dodgson<br />

will put a new spin on codehopping<br />

when he starts in a<br />

role at Mainland Football later<br />

this month.<br />

Field-Dodgson, 39, has a<br />

strong background in rugby<br />

which includes a number of<br />

roles in development and<br />

coaching at the top level in<br />

Europe. He will soon transfer<br />

those skills to football when<br />

he starts as the community<br />

football manager for Mainland<br />

Football.<br />

He will still play a big part in<br />

rugby, in his first season coaching<br />

the Sumner Rugby Club<br />

division one side.<br />

“Some people have said you’re<br />

going to join the enemy but in<br />

the modern day and age the<br />

real enemy is doing nothing<br />

and computer games,” said<br />

Field-Dodgson. “<strong>The</strong> real driver<br />

for me is that kids are doing<br />

something, that’s the main<br />

thing.”<br />

In terms of football this will<br />

be his first true role in the<br />

sport.<br />

“I had a run around for the<br />

Cashmere Wanderer’s (now<br />

Cashmere Technical) as an<br />

eight or nine-year-old, that’s<br />

the extent of my football prowess,”<br />

said Field-Dodgson.<br />

Although he may not hold an<br />

extensive background in football,<br />

Mainland Football CEO<br />

not only won the series, she took<br />

out all five events.<br />

“I was really shocked with how<br />

well it went in my first year of<br />

triathlon. Every time I competed<br />

I wasn’t really expecting to win.<br />

I was just excited to compete and<br />

learn from racing,” said Graham.<br />

Graham has always been a<br />

strong swimmer and runner.<br />

Julian Bowden believes the<br />

organisation is getting someone<br />

with a huge skill set.<br />

“His varied background<br />

shows a great knowledge of<br />

club systems and structures so<br />

he was a standout for us,” said<br />

Bowden. “<strong>The</strong> fact he’s actually<br />

come from another code I find<br />

quite exciting because I think<br />

there is a whole lot we can learn<br />

from each other.”<br />

A connection between<br />

Mainland Football and Sumner<br />

Rugby Club isn’t something<br />

new.<br />

She has been hard at work on her<br />

cycling with coach Axel Reiser<br />

to develop her technique and<br />

bunch-riding tactics this year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> weeks are busy with four<br />

pool, three run and three cycle<br />

sessions. To keep it competitive,<br />

she spends most of her time<br />

training with a lot of the top<br />

boys at the academy.<br />

Bowden spent two seasons<br />

playing for the top Sumner<br />

side in the late 90s. Former All<br />

White Ben Sigmund also played<br />

on the wing for Sumner during<br />

a break from football.<br />

Field-Dodgson returned to<br />

Canterbury last year after 10<br />

years in Italy working in various<br />

roles including academy<br />

manager and assistant coach at<br />

Pro12 team Benetton Treviso.<br />

Pro12 is a European competition,<br />

contested by the top Italian,<br />

Irish, Welsh and Scottish<br />

teams. In previous years, All<br />

“It’s about putting her into an<br />

environment where she’s being<br />

pushed,” said Reiser.<br />

He believes that Graham<br />

shows all the signs for them to be<br />

hopeful about her development.<br />

However, like all young athletes,<br />

there are a lot of factors in the future<br />

which will determine what<br />

she could go on to achieve.<br />

Blacks such as John Kirwan<br />

and Craig Green have played<br />

for the club.<br />

“It was an incredible experience<br />

in terms of learning,” said<br />

Field-Dodgson.<br />

He has held a number of<br />

development roles before his<br />

time in Italy. After finishing<br />

physical education studies at<br />

University of Otago he spent a<br />

number of years working with<br />

the Queensland Rugby<br />

Union.<br />

Field-Dodgson begins the<br />

new role on <strong>April</strong> 26.<br />

“If you look at her times and<br />

compare that to previous Olympic<br />

champions, then she is now<br />

faster than them at this stage,”<br />

said Reiser.<br />

Graham currently competes<br />

over the sprint distance, which<br />

consists of a 750m swim, 20km<br />

bike and 5km run, half the<br />

length of the sport’s Olympic<br />

distance.<br />

She’s been able to get a good<br />

gauge of where she wants to get<br />

to. Since dedicating her time to<br />

triathlon, she has had the opportunity<br />

to work alongside New<br />

Zealand’s top female triathlete<br />

Andrea Hewitt. <strong>The</strong>y swim<br />

together under the guidance of<br />

Roly Crichton, who trains New<br />

Zealand’s most successful Paralympian<br />

Sophie Pascoe.<br />

“I used to train with Roly at<br />

QE II when I was younger,” said<br />

Graham.<br />

“I’ve always kept in touch with<br />

him and, when I finished school,<br />

I was able to train with him<br />

again.<br />

“Andrea is really east to talk<br />

to and it’s amazing being able<br />

to train with someone who’s so<br />

accomplished.”

Odds stacked against Sunwolves<br />

.kiwi<br />

THE CHALLENGE has been set<br />

by the TAB.<br />

THe Sunwolves are paying<br />

a whopping $18 to upset the<br />

Crusaders in Christchurch on<br />

tomorrow night.<br />

THe Japanese franchise<br />

travel to New Zealand for<br />

the first time this week as<br />

they face the daunting task<br />

of playing the Crusaders,<br />

Highlanders and Chiefs in<br />

consecutive weeks.<br />

In round one the Sunwolves<br />

came up against a New Zealand<br />

franchise for the first time in<br />

history and it wasn’t pretty, being<br />

thrashed 83-17 by the Hurricanes<br />

in Tokyo.<br />

THe side did however record<br />

their first win of the season over<br />

the weekend, and just the second<br />

all-time, with a 21-20 victory over<br />

the Bulls.<br />

But this week they have a sixday<br />

turnaround after completing<br />

the trip from Japan to take on a<br />

Crusaders side coming off the<br />

bye week.<br />

THe Crusaders are paying just<br />

$1.05 for a <strong>13</strong> and over victory on<br />

Friday while the points start has<br />

been set at 37.5. Conversely, the<br />

odds for the Sunwolves to upset<br />

the Crusaders by more than <strong>13</strong><br />

points is $51.<br />

THe Sunwolves are<br />

conceding around 42 points<br />

a game in their six matches this<br />

year and have let in 33 tries, one<br />

more than bottom-placed<br />

Rebels.<br />

No team has cracked a century<br />

in the Super Rugby history with<br />

the Crusaders coming the closest<br />

in 2002 when they scored 14<br />

tries in a 92-16 demolition of the<br />

Waratahs.<br />

THe Sunwolves lost 92-17 last<br />

season to the Cheeatahs.<br />

Home<br />

& Property<br />

What to ask at an<br />

open home<br />

It’s easy to get carried away when you’re searching through property listings for the<br />

house of your dreams. But if you’re not careful, home buying can become a nightmare.<br />

“Buying a property is a complex and<br />

potentially stressful process, not least<br />

because it involves such a scary amount<br />

of money,” says Kevin Lampen-Smith,<br />

chief executive at the Real Estate Agents<br />

Authority (REAA).<br />

“It’s smart to do as much as you<br />

can to reduce the risk of unwelcome<br />

surprises or unexpected costs further<br />

down the line.”<br />

In the first instance, Lampen-Smith<br />

recommends drawing up a list of<br />

questions to ask about properties you’re<br />

interested in.<br />

“Remember that you can ask the real<br />

estate agent anything you like about<br />

the property,” he says. “<strong>The</strong>y are also<br />

required to tell you everything they<br />

know and not withhold any details.”<br />

If you’re not sure what to ask, here’s<br />

a handy list of questions. Open homes<br />

can be busy, so ask the agent if you can<br />

talk on the phone, or send questions via<br />

email.<br />

- Have there been any issues with the<br />

property, such as earthquake damage<br />

or water-tightness?<br />

- Are there any offers on the property,<br />

or have any contracts been cancelled<br />

by potential buyers?<br />

- How long has it been on the market?<br />

What is the seller’s preferred<br />

settlement date?<br />

Mike Fulham<br />

M: 021 300 567<br />

E: mike@starmedia.kiwi<br />

- What maintenance, repairs or<br />

improvements have been carried out?<br />

Do these have permits?<br />

- Is there a Land Information<br />

Memorandum (LIM) available or<br />

a building report prepared by an<br />

accredited property surveyor?<br />

- Is the property well-maintained?<br />

What condition are the roof, piles,<br />

wiring, and plumbing in?<br />

- Is the property insulated? If so, to<br />

what degree (eg walls, underfloor,<br />

ceiling)?<br />

- Is there any risk of methamphetamine<br />

(P) contamination?<br />

- If there is a body corporate (usually for<br />

apartments), what does that entail?<br />

- Are there any issues with neighbours<br />

or planned developments?<br />

“If you are seriously considering<br />

making an offer, you will need to<br />

do your own research and seek<br />

professional advice. It may well become<br />

your home, so you need to know<br />

as much about it as possible to save<br />

unhappy surprises later,” Lampen-<br />

Smith says.<br />

“Knowing the right questions to ask is<br />

a good starting point.”<br />

NOTIFICATION OF LIFTING OF<br />

PROHIBITED FIRE SEASON<br />

(Imposed Pursuant to section 22(2) of<br />

the Forest and Rural Fires Act 1977)<br />

CHRISTCHURCH CITY RURAL FIRE<br />

AREA INCLUDING BANKS<br />

PENINSULA<br />

Notice is hereby given that the prohibited fire season<br />

currently imposed by the Christchurch City Council<br />

over the rural fire area for which the Council is the<br />

Fire Authority is lifted from 7am on Saturday, 8 <strong>April</strong><br />

<strong>2017</strong>, to be replaced by an OPEN FIRE SEASON.<br />

Fires may now be lit in the open air in rural areas<br />

without permit. Restrictions may be reimposed at a<br />

later date if weather conditions create a potentially<br />

dangerous fire situation.<br />

All residents are requested to take care when lighting<br />

open fires. Before lighting fires in the open air,<br />

careful consideration must be given to weather<br />

conditions, adequacy of fire breaks, availability of<br />

water, and the patrolling of fires until completely out.<br />

Fires are not to be left burning after dark.<br />

NOTE: Resource Consent conditions imposed by<br />

Environment Canterbury may still apply.<br />

Property owners within the Department of<br />

Conservation Fire Safety Margin require a<br />

permit all year round.<br />

Relevant authorities should be contacted prior<br />

to any burning.<br />

CHANGES TO PERMITTED DEPOTS AND<br />

TEMPORARY ACCOMMODATION FOR PEOPLE<br />

DISPLACED BY EARTHQUAKES<br />

Under Clause 7(3)(a) and Clause 8(3)(a) of the Canterbury Earthquake<br />

(Resource Management Act Permitted Activities) Order 2011<br />

Following the February 2011 earthquake many residents and businesses were displaced from their usual homes or<br />

premises. Depots and storage facilities were urgently required for earthquake recovery. <strong>The</strong> Canterbury Earthquake<br />

(Resource Management Act Permitted Activities) Order 2011 enabled the Council to, by public notice, permit depots<br />

and storage facilities and temporary accommodation for displaced people and businesses, that would otherwise not<br />

comply with the City and District Plans.<br />

On 9 <strong>April</strong> 2011 the Council issued a public notice that permitted temporary accommodation and depots throughout<br />

the City if they complied with general standards in that notice.<br />

At its meeting on 22 September 2016 the Council resolved to issue a new public notice to change the scope of the<br />

permitted temporary activities and the associated policy. This was due to the time elapsed since the earthquakes,<br />

issues arising over time as a result of temporary accommodation approvals, the progress of the rebuild, legislation<br />

extending the timeframe for temporary activities under the 2011 Order, and the Replacement District Plan including<br />

rules providing for temporary activities.<br />

<strong>The</strong> standards for depots and storage facilities and temporary accommodation are hereby amended in the following ways:<br />

• Temporary residential accommodation is no longer permitted by general standards.<br />

• Temporary depots and storage facilities are no longer permitted by general standards.<br />

• Site specific temporary activity approval or a resource consent will now be required for these activities if they do<br />

not comply with the rules in the Christchurch District Plan.<br />

<strong>The</strong> effect of these amendments is to remove all remaining standards for permitted activities under the Order in Council.<br />

<strong>The</strong> associated policy, as amended, can be viewed on the Council website.<br />

<strong>The</strong> amendments will take effect from the date of this notice and amend those advertised in previous public notices.<br />

<strong>The</strong> amendments do not affect activities that have been lawfully established under the existing standards prior to this<br />

public notice.<br />

This notice relates to temporary accommodation, as defined in the Canterbury Earthquake (Resource Management<br />

Act Permitted Activities) Order 2011. All other statutory requirements and regulations applying to the activity or<br />

site (e.g. building consent, animal control, resource consent from Environment Canterbury, Ministry of Education<br />

standards, liquor licensing or health licensing) must also be complied with.<br />

Any temporary activity established under these provisions shall not create or give rise to any existing use right in<br />

respect of any land, activity, or structure (refer clause 5(3) of the Canterbury Earthquake (Resource Management Act<br />

Permitted Activities) Order 2011).<br />

NOTICE OF LIFTING OF FIRE<br />

BAN IN THE OPEN AIR WITHIN<br />

THE CITY OF CHRISTCHURCH<br />

Christchurch City Council is lifting its ban on fires in the<br />

open air in urban areas.<br />

<strong>The</strong> ban, which has been in place since Saturday, 14<br />

January <strong>2017</strong>, will be lifted from 7am on Saturday, 8 <strong>April</strong><br />

<strong>2017</strong> until further notice.<br />

<strong>The</strong> existing prohibition on fires in the open air is<br />

imposed pursuant to Section <strong>13</strong> of the Christchurch City<br />

Council Urban Fire Safety Bylaw 2014 and is in force<br />

for properties not zoned residential in Christchurch<br />

City and within the Urban Fire Districts of Christchurch,<br />

Brooklands, New Brighton, Sumner, Lyttelton, Governors<br />

Bay, Diamond Harbour, Little River and Akaroa.<br />

Fires may now be lit in the open air in the urban areas<br />

without permit. Restrictions may be re-imposed at a<br />

later date if weather conditions create a potentially<br />

dangerous fire situation.<br />

Before lighting fires in the open air, careful consideration<br />

must be given to weather conditions, the risk of spread,<br />

adequacy of fire breaks, availability of water, and the<br />

supervision of fires until completely out. Fires must only<br />

be lit in daylight hours and must not be left burning<br />

after dark.<br />

Note: Environment Canterbury places resource consent<br />

conditions on fires in residential areas. Landowners in<br />

these areas should contact Environment Canterbury for<br />

further information.<br />
