YOU CAN do a lot for<br />

yourself in five or six hours<br />

a week.<br />

But for the last seven years,<br />

Carole Gibson has been<br />

devoting this time to others.<br />

The 75-year-old Prestons<br />

resident is one of 12 people from<br />

the east who received Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Service<br />

Awards earlier this month for<br />

their contributions to the area.<br />

Mrs Gibson has volunteered<br />

at Parklands Baptist Community<br />

Church organising a<br />

friendship group and foot clinic<br />

for over-50s and a craft group.<br />

She said she had become<br />

involved with the church to<br />

help people who were socially<br />

isolated find companionship.<br />

decision to<br />

not start<br />

Oram Ave<br />

work early<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

THE CHANCE of work on the<br />

Oram Ave extension in New<br />

Brighton not starting as soon<br />

as hoped has received heavy<br />

criticism online.<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported last<br />

week the city council did not<br />

approve the Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board’s Annual<br />

Plan request to make $400,000<br />

available between now and 2021<br />

so the extension of Oram Ave<br />

from New Brighton mall to<br />

Hawke St could start sooner than<br />

2026.<br />

City council transport<br />

planning and delivery manager<br />

Lynette Ellis said the city council<br />

asked for more information on<br />

the project’s funding needs before<br />

making the money available.<br />

Coastal Ward city councillor<br />

David East was disappointed<br />

with this decision, saying it<br />

could take “a few months” for<br />

the information to be provided,<br />

which could delay the project<br />

starting and negatively impact on<br />

businesses in the suburb.<br />

THe Battle of the Shingle Pile appears to be<br />

over (see page 4).<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> fired the first salvo a few<br />

weeks ago, backing the Coastal-Burwood<br />

Community Board’s bid to get the eyesore<br />

cleaned up after city council staff seemed<br />

disinterested.<br />

Phil Mauger, who is running for city council in the Burwood<br />

Ward, read the <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> article and charged into the dispute,<br />

getting his contracting staff to clean it up – well most of it<br />

anyway.<br />

It looked decidedly like electioneering, in spite of Mauger<br />

saying it wasn’t. Then the battle erupted when <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong><br />

interviewed his rival Glenn Livingstone over electioneering and<br />

the shingle pile.<br />

But now Mauger has finished the job.<br />

Peace has returned – but for how long?<br />

New Brighton Rd repairs to start soon<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

THE $1.2 million repair of<br />

a damaged stretch of New<br />

Brighton Rd is set to begin in<br />

October.<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board chairwoman Kim Money<br />

spoke to <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> in March<br />

saying the community board<br />

wanted New Brighton Rd to be<br />

repaired before the end of 2021.<br />

The board<br />

has got its<br />

wish. The most<br />

badly damaged<br />

section between<br />

Wattle Drive<br />

and Bower<br />

Ave should be<br />

repaired by<br />

Kim Money<br />

March next<br />

year.<br />

Said Ms<br />

Money: “That’s definitely the<br />

main problem area on New<br />

Brighton Rd, so that’s the<br />

piece that we wanted to be<br />

done.”<br />

Ms Money said the road had<br />

been cracked and covered in<br />

potholes for eight years since the<br />

earthquakes.<br />

It had also been prone to<br />

flooding, she said.<br />

City council planning and<br />

delivery transport manager<br />

Lynette Ellis said both of these<br />

issues would be addressed during<br />

the repairs.<br />

“We are repairing and resurfacing<br />

the existing road. If there<br />

are drainage issues that can be<br />

corrected, these will be done at<br />

the same time.”<br />

Ms Money said the damage<br />

to the road had had a negative<br />

impact on people’s well-being.<br />

“Every day they’re reminded<br />

that this road has needed to be<br />

repaired for eight years and it<br />

hasn’t been done yet.<br />

“Plus, the flooding that continually<br />

gets onto that stretch of<br />

road, hasn’t helped the situation.<br />

“To have that fixed, we can<br />

finally put that behind us.”<br />

Ms Money said if funds were<br />

left over after the Bower Ave/<br />

Wattle Drive section of New<br />

Brighton Rd was fixed, these<br />

would go towards repairing the<br />

area between Bower Ave and<br />

Palmers Rd.<br />

POTHOLES:<br />

The $1.2<br />

million repair<br />

of New<br />

October and<br />

be finished by<br />

March next<br />

MARTIN<br />

HUNTER<br />

She hoped the repair of the<br />

rest New Brighton Rd would<br />

be completed soon after the<br />

first section was finished next<br />

year.<br />

Asked if this would happen,<br />

Ms Ellis said: “The remainder<br />

of the road is regularly assessed<br />

and prioritised with other roads<br />

in the city and any works to<br />

be undertaken will need to be<br />

co-ordinated with other utility<br />

works that may be required.”<br />

Council hopeful finishes<br />

clearing shingle pile<br />

PHIL MAUGER has followed<br />

through with his promise to<br />

clear a pile of shingle in a car<br />

park near The Bower.<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> previously<br />

reported the Maugers<br />

Contracting Ltd boss, who<br />

is trying to oust Burwood<br />

Ward city councillor Glenn<br />

Livingstone for his seat in<br />

October’s local body elections,<br />

got a digger and started clearing<br />

piles of shingle last month,<br />

which had been there since the<br />

earthquakes.<br />

But one pile remained and Mr<br />

Mauger said it would be cleared<br />

by <strong>July</strong> 5, and it was.<br />

Mr Mauger said he was always<br />

going to follow through and get<br />

the job done as soon as he and<br />

his staff were on the east side of<br />

town.<br />

“Our gear was in the area and<br />

it was a bit wet on Friday, so we<br />

said stuff it, we’ll go and do that<br />

because we can do that in the<br />

wet weather.<br />

“We’ll always get around to<br />

getting it done, it just came<br />

down to timing because it had<br />

to fit into what we were doing<br />

because we were doing it for<br />

nothing.”<br />

Coastal-Burwood Community<br />

Board chairwoman Kim Money<br />

spoke to <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> last month<br />

about the need to clean up the<br />

shingle piles, which led Mr<br />

Mauger to take matters into his<br />

own hands.<br />

Ms Money praised Mr Mauger<br />

for finishing the job.<br />

“I just think it’s great when<br />

people put their hand up and are<br />

willing to help the community,<br />

which is awesome and saves<br />

the council a job and it’s been<br />

done a little bit earlier than<br />

anticipated.”<br />

THe city council told <strong>Pegasus</strong><br />

<strong>Post</strong> last moth dumping in<br />

the car park is illegal and has<br />

now placed signs in it saying:<br />

“Contractors are not to stockpile<br />

materials in this area.”<br />

TEAMWORK: A crew from Phil Mauger’s contracting business<br />

cleared shingle from a car park near The Bower.<br />

Cr Livingstone told<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> last month he<br />

believed Mr Mauger cleaning<br />

up the shingle piles was<br />

“electioneering.”<br />

Mr Mauger said others had<br />

expressed the same opinion<br />

online, but he had done what he<br />

said he was going to do and was<br />

not worried what people thought<br />

of his actions.<br />

Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />

“You’re never going to please<br />

everyone all of the time.”<br />

He said he would use the last<br />

of the shingle, which had been<br />

cleared to cover muddy and wet<br />

ground at his worksites.<br />

Mr Mauger said his focus<br />

was now on door-knocking<br />

and talking to residents about<br />

changes they wanted to see in<br />

Burwood.<br />

Pedestrian safety outside<br />

hospital could be improved<br />

Readers react to the war<br />

of words which erupted<br />

between Burwood Ward<br />

city council candidates<br />

Phil Mauger and Glenn<br />

Livingstone over the<br />

removal of shingle from a<br />

car park near the Avon River<br />

Sandy Robb – Great to see a<br />

man like Phil Mauger standing<br />

for Burwood. An action man is<br />

what is needed, not a talker. He<br />

will get my vote.<br />

years and has seen nothing of Cr<br />

Livingstone in all the times he<br />

has been the councillor, I have<br />

CONCERNS: Hans Wouters<br />

discussed dangers for<br />

wheelchair users such<br />

as Brett Ladbrook when<br />

crossing the road outside<br />

Burwood Hospital.<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

IMPROVED pedestrian safety<br />

measures outside of Burwood<br />

Hospital could be a step closer.<br />

New Zealand Spinal Trust<br />

chief executive Hans Wouters<br />

said a meeting at the Burwood<br />

and Mairehau Rds intersection<br />

last Tuesday between it, city<br />

council staff, the Coastal-<br />

Burwood Community Board,<br />

New Zealand Transport Agency<br />

and Canterbury District Health<br />

Board representatives went well.<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> reported last<br />

month the trust wanted traffic<br />

lights to replace the traffic<br />

islands and roundabout at the<br />

intersection to keep unexperienced<br />

wheelchair users from<br />

Burwood Spinal Unit and other<br />

patients safe while crossing it.<br />

Mr Wouters said the trust’s<br />

safety concerns were heard at<br />

the meeting and city council<br />

staff would now report back to<br />

those who attended with their<br />

feedback.<br />

City council transport operations<br />

manager Steffan Thomas<br />

told <strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> last month<br />

there were plans to improve the<br />

intersection, but Mr Wouters<br />

had been told this would be “a<br />

couple or three years down the<br />

track.”<br />

Mr Wouters hoped the meeting<br />

will lead to these improvements<br />

happening sooner and<br />

traffic lights would be chosen as<br />

the best option to improve the<br />

intersection.<br />

“I’m confident that once the<br />

report comes back, those people<br />

on the inside will be saying<br />

okay, so what’s next? Who has<br />

the ball? Let’s get movement to<br />

make it happen.<br />

“I think what we’ve been able<br />

to do is just say, look, you’ve<br />

got it earmarked way down the<br />

track, but really, we need to<br />

bring it forward, because it is<br />

an issue that’s not going to get<br />

better.”<br />

also seen none of his so-called<br />

work for the community. In fact,<br />

the last time of hearing anything<br />

about him was his motion to city<br />

council that QE II should be shut<br />

for a time for the Muslim women<br />

community to be able to swim.<br />

Why has he not been lobbying for<br />

the roads to be repaired? They are<br />

still disgraceful after eight years.<br />

He, I think, is past his use by date<br />

and should step aside for new<br />

blood to come through and look<br />

after the interests of the east side.<br />

If he is looking for the tap on the<br />

shoulder for higher political office,<br />

then he needs to be told that<br />

is not going to happen. But hey,<br />

anything is possible within this<br />

left-leaning council.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />

Estuary edge images and info wanted<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

PEOPLE HAVE been asked for<br />

their insights on the estuary edge<br />

before and immediately after the<br />

earthquakes.<br />

The city council and Coastal<br />

Futures want people to share<br />

photos of the<br />

estuary edge and<br />

its surroundings<br />

from this time<br />

period and any<br />

observations<br />

about what has<br />

changed.<br />

David<br />

Griffiths<br />

City council<br />

head of planning<br />

and strategic<br />

transport David Griffiths said<br />

the goal of this project was to use<br />

photos and people’s knowledge<br />

to help address earthquake<br />

legacy issues and develop a<br />

strategy to protect surrounding<br />

properties from flooding and<br />

erosion.<br />

Mr Griffiths said what people<br />

shared would be used to identify<br />

the needs of nearby residents and<br />

what they think should be done.<br />

“A contractor has been commissioned<br />

to undertake technical<br />

work to identify the pre and<br />

post-earthquake physical state<br />

FUTURE PROTECTION: The city council want photos of the estuary edge before and just<br />

after the earthquakes and residents’ insights on what has changed to help the surrounding<br />

area prepare for the future.<br />

of the estuary edge and changes<br />

that have occurred. Drone<br />

footage being commissioned by<br />

ECan is being shared with the<br />

council to inform this work.<br />

Community members have been<br />

asked to provide any photographs<br />

they have of the estuary<br />

edge that might support this<br />

analysis of earthquake-generated<br />

change.”<br />

Southshore Residents Association<br />

chairwoman Lynda<br />

Burdekin said much of the<br />

infrastructure in place to protect<br />

properties closest to the estuary<br />

edge from erosion had been<br />

wiped out due to the earthquakes.<br />

Very little had been done since<br />

to replace this infrastructure,<br />

Mrs Burdekin said.<br />

She was pleased the city<br />

council was finally working with<br />

residents to establish the best<br />

way to protect their properties in<br />

the future, but felt this had taken<br />

too long to happen.<br />

“It’s the first time in nearly<br />

eight years the council have<br />

agreed that there is an issue and<br />

it needs to be looked at.”<br />

Mrs Burdekin hoped the city<br />

council would listen to people’s<br />

input and the amount of protection<br />

around the estuary edge<br />

would return to pre-earthquake<br />

levels.<br />

“We’re interested in having<br />

things back to where they were<br />

because that’s not really been<br />

looked at in all these years, but<br />

also with an eye to the future,<br />

what we can do practically and<br />

sensibly to ensure that people<br />

in Southshore can live in their<br />

homes safely for a decent length<br />

of time,” she said.<br />

The photos and information<br />

collected during this project<br />

will be reported back to the city<br />

council in August.<br />

Mr Griffiths said this was<br />

part of the city council’s new<br />

role leading the Southshore and<br />

South New Brighton regeneration<br />

strategy, which it took over<br />

from Regenerate Christchurch<br />

in May.<br />

Possible delays to Oram Ave project criticised<br />

•From page 1<br />

Last week’s article was posted<br />

on the Peoples Independent Republic<br />

of New Brighton Facebook<br />

group and received 156 comments<br />

from people who shared<br />

Cr East’s disappointment.<br />

“Again, and again and again<br />

– poor old New Brighton on the<br />

backburner once more,” read one<br />

comment.<br />

Another read: “Once again, the<br />

mayor, council, and Development<br />

Christchurch Ltd are throwing<br />

the residents of New Brighton,<br />

who want to see their neighbourhood<br />

move forward with the extension<br />

of Oram Ave, under the<br />

bus regarding this much-needed<br />

improvement for the area. It<br />

would be so nice if just once they<br />

would stick to the plan and get<br />

things completed as planned.”<br />

Said another comment: “I’m<br />

prepared to start a petition about<br />

Oram Ave and progressing New<br />

Brighton development. What do<br />

you all think?”<br />

Some commentators wanted<br />

the city councillors who opposed<br />

the funding being made available<br />

sooner for the extension to<br />

be named, but Cr East said this<br />

never went to a vote.<br />

He said if it had, he felt the<br />

proposal would not have been<br />

supported and in spite of it not<br />

being his preferred option, asking<br />

for more information ensured the<br />

proposal was still on the table.<br />

However, Cr East said he<br />

was “not surprised at all” the<br />

commenters shared his concern<br />

about the delay this could have.<br />

“When matters concerning the<br />

Coastal Ward and the Burwood<br />

Ward are considered in council,<br />

it’s never a straight forward<br />

process, there’s always more<br />

consultation required or some<br />

delay.<br />

“A similar sort of project<br />

anywhere else in the city seems<br />

to sort of go through with<br />

consummate ease.”<br />

When asked to comment on<br />

Cr East’s statements, and those<br />

on Facebook, the city council<br />

did not respond before <strong>Pegasus</strong><br />

Thank you for<br />

helping your<br />

Fall Zones<br />

community<br />

To all of you who have had your<br />

trees trimmed before they became<br />

a problem, thank you for keeping all<br />

the families in your community warm,<br />

happy, healthy and connected.<br />

You can be proud of the fact that you have allowed your<br />

neighbours to stay warm, cook dinner and even charge<br />

their mobile phones. You may not have realised that what<br />

you’ve done has had much impact, but from all of us here<br />

at Orion, we just want to say thank you.<br />

Notice and Growth limit zones<br />

B<br />

Power line voltage A. Growth limit zone B. Notice zone<br />

66,000 volts 4.0m 5.0m<br />

11,000 volts 1.6m 2.6m<br />

400/230 volts 0.5m 1.5m<br />

We’re not exaggerating.<br />

On our network, 10-20% of all unplanned power outages are<br />

caused by trees — including vegetation — coming into contact<br />

with power lines. Other than this, fire damage to property from<br />

branches sparking in dry conditions and serious injury from<br />

electrocution from contact with trees touching power lines are<br />

also possible consequences of not maintaining your trees.<br />

How close is too close?<br />

While most damage is caused by trees falling on power lines,<br />

significant risk exists from trees merely touching them. This risk<br />

increases the higher the voltage of the power line.<br />

The minimum distances that must be maintained between trees<br />

and power lines, as defined in the Electricity (Hazards from<br />

Trees) Regulations 2003, are outlined in the diagrams above.<br />

All vegetation should be kept out of the growth limit zone and<br />

preferably the notice zone.<br />

Sometimes it may not be practical to have a tree trimmed at the<br />

rate at which it grows and unfortunately, this means it may need<br />

to be removed. Other situations may require trees to be removed,<br />

most commonly when they are at a high risk of falling due to<br />

disease or adverse weather events.<br />

Where do I start?<br />

Before you begin, remember to keep yourself, and those around<br />

you, safe. We recognise that not everyone is experienced in tree<br />

trimming and are happy to advise you on what to do. We can arrange<br />

for trees near power lines to be trimmed at your expense, however<br />

we recommend you hire professionals to safely carry out the work.<br />

If you or someone working for you intends to work within four<br />

metres of power lines, a close approach consent is required from<br />

Orion before you start. As a tree owner, you may be liable for any<br />

damage caused by carrying out trimming or felling of trees.<br />

Will I be fined if I don’t comply?<br />

If a cut or trim notice is given to you and you fail to have the tree<br />

trimmed and/or advise us of the time and location of the trim<br />

without a reasonable excuse, this is an offence. This will make you<br />

liable for a fine not exceeding $10,000. If the offence continues,<br />

you will be liable for a further fine of not more than $500 for every<br />

day or part day during which the offence continues.<br />

More info can be found on our website and if<br />

you have any questions or notice any trees<br />

touching power lines in your area, please call<br />

us on 03 363 9898 or 0800 363 9898.<br />

Buying flower shop the right decision<br />

• By Matt Slaughter<br />

NEW BRIGHTON Florist<br />

would have closed if it wasn’t<br />

for Pauline Turner’s decision six<br />

years ago.<br />

She took over its ownership<br />

at a time when the earthquakes<br />

were fresh in people’s minds and<br />

some businesses in the area were<br />

struggling.<br />

The New Brighton resident<br />

of about 20 years said her love<br />

for its seaside surroundings and<br />

people meant this was a chance<br />

she was willing to take.<br />

“The old owner was going to<br />

close the doors. I thought that<br />

can’t happen, the shop has to<br />

stay open because it’s a bright<br />

little spot.”<br />

Ms Turner worked at New<br />

Brighton Florist for seven years<br />

before buying the shop, which<br />

had been open since 1964.<br />

This decision was not a financial<br />

one, but her way of giving<br />

back to a community, which had<br />

been hit hard after the earthquakes.<br />

“It was to support the New<br />

Brighton area, totally.”<br />

The community had been supporting<br />

her in return ever since.<br />

“The local people have really<br />

appreciated it and they’ve been<br />

extremely loyal.”<br />

Ms Turner moved to Russley<br />

from Hertfordshire in England<br />

as a six-year-old. She knew<br />

she wanted to move to New<br />

Brighton when she first visited.<br />

“I was 10, we’d come to New<br />

Brighton to the beach and that<br />

was that, as far as I was concerned<br />

that was where I<br />

was going to live when I grew<br />

up.”<br />

The birth of her two children<br />

Steven Turner and Alice<br />

Henderson in the 1980s meant<br />

the time was right to make the<br />

move.<br />

They lived in Marriotts Rd until<br />

the children reached school<br />

age, then shifting to Woolston<br />

so they could attend Rudolf<br />

Steiner School.<br />

After both children graduated,<br />

Ms Turner moved back, buying<br />

a house in Lonsdale St and<br />

starting her job at New Brighton<br />

Florist.<br />

This saw two dreams come<br />

true at once. She was able to<br />

use her years of experience<br />

in floristry to give back to<br />

LOYAL:<br />

has not looked<br />

it from closing<br />

HUNTER<br />

the community she loved the<br />

most.<br />

Ms Turner said she hadn’t<br />

looked back since her decision a<br />

few years later to buy the florists.<br />

She was exactly where she<br />

wanted to be.<br />

“It’s a community, I see New<br />

Brighton as a beautiful, supportive<br />

community.<br />

“It’s like an extended family<br />

feeling.<br />

“I wouldn’t want to be<br />

anywhere else.”<br />

Services to community recognised<br />

•From page 1<br />

Since moving to Christchurch<br />

from Suffolk in England 11<br />

years ago, Mrs Gibson said she<br />

“saw there was a need for help.”<br />

She said of volunteering at<br />

the church: “it was what I was<br />

meant to do.”<br />

Mrs Gibson had seen<br />

hundreds of people get exactly<br />

this out of the activities she<br />

helped to organise.<br />

And this was what had kept<br />

her coming back for so many<br />

years.<br />

“We get a lot of people<br />

that just want to come and<br />

talk and it’s their only outing<br />

for the week, so it’s that<br />

fellowship and companionship.<br />

As well as being a church<br />

group, we are there for the<br />

community to give them an<br />

outing, give them a place to go<br />

if they want to sit and talk and<br />

be warm.<br />

“We’re doing our little bit to<br />

help the world go around and to<br />

make the place a nicer, friendlier<br />

place and, for me, it’s my way of<br />

serving the lord.”<br />

Mrs Gibson said having her<br />

volunteer work recognised<br />

with an award had been a great<br />

feeling and her proud daughters<br />

Sarah and Clair had come to<br />

watch her receive it.<br />

COMPETITIVE: The Avonside Girls’ High School combined year 9 and 10 netball team finished<br />

fourth at the South Island tournament at Hagley Park last week. ​<br />

Avonside claim fourth at<br />

SI netball tournament<br />

• By Jacob Page<br />

AVONSIDE GIRLS’ High School<br />

finished fourth in the combined<br />

year 9 and 10 grade at the South<br />

Island junior netball tournament<br />

at Hagley Park last week.<br />

Avonside went through pool<br />

play unbeaten, taking down<br />

Golden Bay High 36-20, South<br />

Westland School 39-2 and<br />

Cromwell College 34-19 to<br />

comfortably top their group.<br />

Their unbeaten run continued<br />

in the round of <strong>16</strong> games, when<br />

they beat Catholic Cathedral<br />

College 46-<strong>16</strong> and South Otago<br />

High School 36-12 to again top<br />

their group heading into the<br />

quarter-finals.<br />

Avonside prevailed in their<br />

tightest contest yet to make the<br />

semi-finals, thanks to a<br />

27-21 win over Buller High<br />

School. The final-four<br />

match against Papanui High<br />

proved a step too far for the<br />

team and they were beaten<br />

37-13 for their first loss of the<br />

tournament.<br />

The third and fourth play-off<br />

was more competitive against<br />

Gore High, but Gore eventually<br />

prevailed 30-22.<br />

It was the tournament’s 22nd<br />

year at Hagley Park.<br />

AVONSIDE GIRLS’ High<br />

continued to show she is one to<br />

watch in the future by winning<br />

the under-<strong>16</strong> individual time<br />

trial at the South Island road<br />

championships at Ruapuna<br />

Raceway last week.<br />

Sykes, who has won a silver<br />

medal in the event at the national<br />

level in March, won the event<br />

with a time of 5min 12.67sec.<br />

She was almost four seconds<br />

clear of Amye Kellow from<br />

Christchurch Girls’ High School<br />

with Cashmere High School’s<br />

Annabel Bligh a further 11sec<br />

back in third.<br />

Sykes has regularly competed<br />

for Canterbury and has impressed<br />

on both the road and<br />

the track in recent seasons. She<br />

has won national gold medals<br />

on both surfaces.<br />

More than 230 riders took<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />

Modern diet<br />

leads to illness!<br />

It’s not what you eat but what you absorb<br />

More health<br />

benefits with<br />

Advanced<br />

Omega-3-PC<br />

Fish Oil<br />

It is well known how important omega-3 fatty acids are to good<br />

health. It is estimated most people don’t even get a third of the<br />

recommended omega-3 fatty acids on a weekly basis. Countries with<br />

a higher amounts of omega-3 in the diet are known to have lower<br />

cardiovascular disease & in many cases better overall health. Recent<br />

research has shown inflammation to be a big part of disease & the<br />

ageing process. Fish oil can help reduce inflammation by providing<br />

essential fatty acids required by the body to heal itself & maintain<br />

good health. Fish oil supplements have become hugely popular for<br />

this reason. Until now most fish oil only contained omega-3 fatty<br />

acids in triglyceride form. Fish however naturally contain omega-3 in<br />

triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid<br />

form was lost due to the manufacturing process.<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-3-PC sets new standards in fish oil as<br />

it contains omega-3 attached to both triglycerides & phospholipids.<br />

Studies have shown GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC to be far better<br />

absorbed leading to increased levels of vital omega-3 fatty acids in the<br />

organs thru giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-3-PC is produced from fresh wild<br />

deep sea cold water fish using a new advanced & more natural<br />

cold extraction process that better preserves the natural nutrient<br />

profile found in fish. It is manufactured to high GMP standards &<br />

is molecularly distilled to remove any containments, toxins & heavy<br />

metals like mercury.<br />

Further information on this revolutionary new fish oil & how<br />

it may benefit you is available from the Natural Health Advisers,<br />

at Marshall’s Health & Natural Therapy, 101 Seaview Road, New<br />

Brighton, phone: 388-5757. We are always happy to help!<br />

Two Australian<br />

Naturopaths Stephen<br />

and Shane noticed at<br />

the end of the 20th<br />

century more and<br />

more of their patients<br />

were experiencing<br />

gut, bowel and<br />

digestive issues that<br />

were often leading to<br />

more serious chronic<br />

health conditions.<br />

Being Naturopaths<br />

they wanted to find<br />

what was going<br />

wrong and began<br />

extensive research.<br />

What they found was<br />

although their clients<br />

were generally eating good food they were not<br />

obtaining all the nutrients required for good health<br />

from this food. Further research showed one of the<br />

main problems was the digestive system, “it’s not<br />

what you eat but what you absorb.” Another wellknown<br />

problem is the soils the crops are grown<br />

in have been depleted of many trace elements and<br />

other nutrients that are known to be essential for<br />

good health and therefore the crops and food are<br />

also depleted. If we do not obtain all the nutrients<br />

we require the body will compensate to some<br />

degree but a lack of too many nutrients will<br />

eventually lead to health issues.<br />

Based on this they developed<br />

VITAL GREENS, now call VITAL<br />

ALL-IN-ONE, a<br />

nutrient dense<br />

powdered<br />

formula<br />

that provides superior absorption as well as<br />

comprehensive nutrition. They decided on a<br />

powdered formula that could be made as a great<br />

tasting drink because liquid nutrition is the easiest<br />

way for the body to absorb nutrients especially if<br />

digestive issues are present. The formula provides<br />

78 vital ingredients that work together in synergy<br />

optimising each other’s absorption and benefits.<br />

Vital Greens contains a carefully balanced<br />

blend of nutritionally rich greens, vegetables,<br />

fruits, minerals, vitamins, essential fatty acids,<br />

plant and herbal extracts, superfoods, powerful<br />

antioxidants, probiotics, essential amino acids,<br />

digestive enzymes, fibre plus a uniquely alkalising<br />

pea protein. It provides superior nutrition to a<br />

multivitamin and just about anyone will benefit<br />

from it. It is designed to provide all the nutrients<br />

the body requires for good health. It is also ideal<br />

for those in poor health, those recovering from<br />

injury or sickness, children, athletes, poor eaters<br />

and the elderly. It is also suitable for people with<br />

dietary restrictions and is gluten, wheat and dairy<br />

free. VITAL ALL-IN-ONE will help remove toxic<br />

waste from the body while supporting all organs.<br />

You’ll often notice more energy and endurance,<br />

better sleep, a more positive mood, skin problems<br />

improving, less sickness, improved eyesight and<br />

overall better more optimum health.<br />

Further information and how to obtain the<br />

maximum benefits from VITAL ALL-IN-ONE<br />

as well as tastings is available from the Natural<br />

Health Advisers at Marshall’s Health<br />

NOT all FISH OIl IS CreaTed eQUal!<br />

ONLY GO OMEGA-PC retains the natural Phospholipids that have been shown to be so beneficial for Good<br />

Health BUT are lost in other brands of fish oil due to the less natural manufacturing processes used!<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC SETS NEW STANDARDS IN FISH OIL!<br />

Omega-3 fish oil normally contains the vital Omega-3 fatty acids in a triglyceride form. Fish however naturally<br />

contain Omega-3 in a triglyceride & phospholipid form but until recently the phospholipid form was lost due to the<br />

increased omega-3 fatty acids in organs giving the potential for more health benefits.<br />

GO-ADVANCED OMEGA-PC OFFERS:<br />

• Superior absorption of vital Omega-3, as<br />

shown in research<br />

• Advanced new cold extraction better<br />

preserves the natural nutrient profile<br />

found in fish<br />

• Naturally contains phospholipids to<br />

support cellular health<br />

• Contains vitamin D3 to support immune,<br />

PEGASUS POST<br />

This striking executive home makes<br />

an immediate impression and enjoys<br />

an irreplaceable dress circle position<br />

opposite Nicholson Park at the top of<br />

Scarborough Hill. Incredibly positioned<br />

with breathtaking 270˚ views that cannot<br />

be built out over Sumner Beach and the<br />

city with a backdrop of the Southern Alps<br />

and the Kaikoura Ranges.<br />

This spectacular level corner site was a<br />

determining factor in the distinctive design<br />

by acclaimed architect Alick Bellerby which<br />

won ‘house of the year’ on completion.<br />

Spread over a 360sqm of approximate<br />

floor plan with generously proportioned<br />

living areas, 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and<br />

level access to 4 car garaging.<br />

The kitchen is the hub of the home<br />

connecting 2 of the living rooms. Warm oak<br />

floors and full height windows flood the<br />

home with warmth and light and optimise<br />

the sea views. A separate downstairs media<br />

room is a great space for teenagers, a work<br />

from home office space or maybe a gym.<br />

Look out over the manicured gardens<br />

or step outside to a private Halswell stone<br />

courtyard and BBQ area. Here you have<br />

the ability to host everything from intimate<br />

dinner parties to large gatherings in a very<br />

private and sheltered setting.<br />

The established and easily maintained<br />

<strong>16</strong>13sqm grounds include level lawns, rose<br />

gardens, planted borders and offers an<br />

enviable microclimate with total privacy.<br />

Located between Sumner Beach and<br />

Taylors Mistake Beach, allows plenty of<br />

recreational pleasures such as surfing,<br />

boating, walking and cycling right on your<br />

doorstep. While close by in the Sumner<br />

Village you can enjoy the cafes, restaurants,<br />

library and boutique shops.<br />

Sublime design, superior construction<br />

and a prestigious location combine to make<br />

this a compelling lifestyle offering. With<br />

our owner now committed to Auckland<br />

you could secure this home for immediate<br />

possession. Present all offers.<br />

HOME & HEATING<br />

Get rid of<br />

dampness in<br />

your house<br />

Now with the colder and wetter weather<br />

on its way, home owners are focusing on<br />

ways to make their homes comfortable,<br />

warm and healthy for their families<br />

throughout winter. Rising damp is an issue<br />

that affects many of our older properties<br />

which suffer from poor, or no, insulation.<br />

In Canterbury especially, post-quake, many<br />

people have relocated to homes that suffer<br />

from rising damp which can be associated<br />

with health problems. Independent tests<br />

have shown that up to 40 litres of water<br />

can rise from the ground and enter a<br />

house every day, leading to mildew, mould,<br />

condensation and musty smells. Moulds<br />

can produce various allergic reactions<br />

and the frail, elderly and very young are<br />

especially vulnerable.<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a<br />

locally owned and operated firm. The<br />

team understands the problems caused<br />

by rising damp and are there to help.<br />

They will come to your damp home<br />

and pump a lightweight, flowable foam<br />

concrete under your timber floored home.<br />

Specially adapted for our New Zealand<br />

conditions and applications it provides a<br />

layer of protection against rising moisture.<br />

An unexpected benefit that the team at<br />

Canterbury Foam Concrete have noticed<br />

recently, is that many owners of properties<br />

which had underfloor foam concrete<br />

installed, reported that it also provided<br />

protection against liquefaction after<br />

the earthquakes.<br />

Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete<br />

Ltd now for your free, no obligation<br />

quote and complimentary appraisal of<br />

your underfloor ventilation needs. Phone<br />

03 376 4608 or 0508FOAMCO for more<br />

information.<br />

What makes a great<br />

Heat Transfer System?<br />

There are a number of Heat Transfer<br />

systems on the market. Smooth-Air<br />

ventilation specialists offer a range of HTU<br />

Heat Transfer Units with carefully selected<br />

components to optimise the system:<br />

They use insulated duct to transfer the<br />

heated air with as little heat loss as possible.<br />

The fan moves sufficient air for the distance<br />

and number of rooms, without being noisy.<br />

The diffusers send the heat to the floor,<br />

not to skim the across the ceilings. All<br />

components are good quality - designed to<br />

operate for years without problems.<br />

Smooth-Air’s HTUs come in a range of<br />

options: One to four rooms, with or without<br />

thermostat and with a choice of grilles and<br />

diffusers. HTUs improve energy efficiency<br />

in your house, as you are using excess<br />

heat. They have low power consumption<br />

- only 80watts for the three room system.<br />

Circulating air through the house also<br />

reduces the risk of damp.<br />

You can also choose the HTU version<br />

with downjet diffusers, which throw the<br />

warm air downwards to the floor. These<br />

downjet diffusers can also be adjusted to<br />

regulate which room receives the most<br />

warm air.<br />

An average size living room requires 2-4<br />

kw of heating, yet appliances such as log<br />

burners generate heat in the region of 10<br />

-20kw. This leaves an excess of 8 -<strong>16</strong>kw of<br />

heat which sits at high level in the heated<br />

room, usually above door level.<br />

Heat transfer units work best where very<br />

hot air has ‘stratified’ into a layer near the<br />

ceiling. So heat pumps, which circulate<br />

warm air around the room with no<br />

layering, are not suitable as a heat source<br />

by themselves. However, if you have both<br />

log burner and a heat pump, heat transfer<br />

systems with thermostat can work very<br />

well: The heat pump stops operating once<br />

the heat from the fire has heated the room,<br />

and the heat transfer kicks in above this<br />

point, once there is a layer of hot air at the<br />

ceiling.<br />

you with your Heat Transfer, as well as<br />

any other ventilation requirements.<br />
