Mall comes out of the 1990s<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
THE EARLY stages of taking<br />
Merivale Mall out of the 1990s<br />
are on track to be finished by<br />
early November.<br />
Modernising “dated” shop<br />
fronts and bathrooms are just<br />
stages one and two of the five<br />
step mall upgrade, mall manager<br />
Nicola Dolan said.<br />
“The final scope is yet to be<br />
decided for the jobs next and they<br />
are the most expensive, so I don’t<br />
really have a definitive number,”<br />
Mrs Dolan said.<br />
She said the overall upgrade<br />
will hopefully be completed by<br />
early November 2018.<br />
She won’t say how much the<br />
upgrade will cost.<br />
“It’s been such a long time in<br />
the making, last time the mall<br />
was updated was 1998 so we’re<br />
pretty excited,” Mrs Dolan said.<br />
Stage one is “pushing up and<br />
out” shop fronts to create a more<br />
open space, she said.<br />
While stage two is a total<br />
renovation of the pre-1998 bathrooms.<br />
Mrs Dolan said AMP Capital,<br />
which owns the mall, expects<br />
tenants’ shop fit-outs to follow<br />
suit and fit in with the new look<br />
of the mall.<br />
“There is an expectation that<br />
shops will follow in step like<br />
Kimberleys, Hartleys and Esquires<br />
have,” she said.<br />
But in the upgrade process,<br />
the mall is losing one of its oldest<br />
tenants. Paper Plus will go and<br />
Whitcoulls will move in.<br />
Paper Plus co-owner Simon<br />
Grant said the mall’s owner<br />
had accepted a higher rent from<br />
Whitcoulls which he couldn’t<br />
match.<br />
It was “gutting” and he didn’t<br />
like to let down the loyal customer<br />
base the store has grown over<br />
the 23 years it has been there.<br />
“There are a lot of things that<br />
we do that Whitcoulls doesn’t,<br />
but I guess the landlords are<br />
thinking about rent,” he said.<br />
Mrs Dolan said she had “gone<br />
into bat” for Paper Plus and was<br />
sad to see the store leave. But at<br />
the end of the day, it wasn’t able<br />
to compete.<br />
Stage three, upgrading the<br />
Fresh Choice storeroom, is also<br />
under way, but stage four and<br />
five, flooring and updating the<br />
“ambience” of the mall, won’t<br />
begin until next year, she said.<br />

IF IT’S wet on Saturday Timaru<br />
Boys’ could have the upper hand<br />
in the UC Championship final<br />
against Christchurch Boys’ High.<br />
They’ve got a fairly dominant<br />
forward pack and Timaru<br />
has been the team with the<br />
momentum in the competition<br />
over the past months.<br />
That insight into the final<br />
doesn’t come from me – but from<br />
Star Media’s sports reporters<br />
Gordon Findlater and Andrew<br />
King.<br />
In the round robin match CBHS<br />
won a hard fought battle in Timaru,<br />
and everything points to the same<br />
this weekend, Findlater says.<br />
King says utility Rico Syme,<br />
could be the difference towards<br />
the business end of the match.<br />
He’s a gained a bit of reputation in<br />
being a game breaker.<br />
So the prediction: King: CBHS<br />
33-31. Findlater: TBHS: 17-15. For<br />

OPINION IS divided over the<br />
roadworks in the area that<br />
effectiveness of the lights at the<br />

The Rise Up Christchurch<br />

bike to the shops, so why would<br />
Some expressed frustration,<br />

“death trap” and “nightmare”.<br />
He wrote it had to be<br />

upgraded because it “wasn’t<br />
revealed anger and frustration at<br />
fine” left as a unsignalised<br />
the intersection.<br />
CONFUSION: The signals at the intersection of Colombo St T-intersection.<br />
The city council said it and Edgeware Rd have divided public opinion. <br />
And Jo French agreed, saying<br />
was caused by motorists not<br />
the upgrades were part of<br />
approaching the lights correctly<br />
making the intersection safer.<br />
“The intersection is less<br />
dangerous than it was and so<br />
long as everyone follows the new<br />
rules, it will continue to be so,”<br />
she wrote.<br />
otoring“It was a stupid idea putting<br />
parking outside the shops near<br />
the traffic lights,” she wrote.<br />
And Colombo St business<br />
owner Carolyn Moffat wrote<br />
that profit is down considerably.<br />
“Business owners were hoping<br />
that things would improve once<br />
the cycle lane had finished but<br />
the congestion means people are<br />
and not triggering the phasing.<br />
But Bailies Bar and Restaurant<br />
co-owner Richard Norton said<br />
the city council needed to do<br />
something as drivers had taken<br />
to rat running through the car<br />
park<br />
asty<br />
to avoid congestion, which<br />
Bites<br />
would end in an accident.<br />
Julie Nicholson wrote on<br />
Facebook that she had waited<br />
behind a parked car on<br />
Colombo St thinking it was<br />
traffic turning left.<br />
avoiding the area altogether,”<br />
she wrote.<br />
She said most businesses in<br />
the area have been suffering<br />
since the roadworks began and<br />
even though they are complete,<br />
it’s too late.<br />
But many readers agree<br />
that congestion is the fault of<br />
motorists and the intersection is<br />
much better now.<br />
“This is a driver problem,<br />
nothing more, stop in the right<br />
spot and you’ll trigger the lights.<br />
The cycleways have improved<br />
this area for cyclists and<br />
pedestrians,” James David Foote<br />
wrote.<br />

WELL DONE: Papanui High School’s jazz band.<br />
SPORTS<br />
Papanui ends<br />
on high note<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
PAPANUI HIGH School can<br />
blow its own trumpet after<br />
winning a pair of gold and silver<br />
medals at jazz band competitions.<br />
Under the directorship of<br />
music teacher, Georgina Rees-<br />
Stevenson, the band won a gold<br />
medal at the Southern Jam in<br />
Blenheim.<br />
They were up against a field of<br />
15 other schools and more than<br />
25 bands.<br />
Students Claire Daddiza and<br />
Arama Ruka-Thompson were<br />
also selected for inclusion in the<br />
All Stars band off the back of<br />
their performance at the jam.<br />
Judges selected those they<br />
considered to be the best on each<br />
instrument.<br />
Then, after only a two hour<br />
rehearsal, they performed in a<br />
gala concert on <strong>August</strong> 12.<br />
The jazz band also won a gold<br />
medal at the Ara JazzQuest<br />
earlier this month.<br />
And the school’s Jazz Combo<br />
band won silver medals at both<br />
ARA JazzQuest and Southern<br />
Jam as well.<br />
See Shrek and friends<br />
at Selwyn House<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
CURTAIN CALL is almost<br />
ready for Selwyn House’s Shrek<br />
the Musical Jnr.<br />
After weeks of rehearsals,<br />
pupils are ready to perform<br />
their biannual production to<br />
audiences for three shows on<br />
Friday and Saturday.<br />
Shrek is a one-of-a-kind,<br />
hilarious fairy tale in which<br />
curses are reversed, monsters get<br />
the girls, donkeys and dragons<br />
find love, and princesses are<br />
beautiful in all shapes and sizes.<br />
Director Therese Bierwirth,<br />
said Shrek was chosen because of<br />
how funny it is and it has all the<br />
well-known fairy-tale characters,<br />
such as Pinocchio and the Big<br />
Bad Wolf.<br />
“It also has a serious<br />
understory so that the girls<br />
in the production can make<br />
connections to real world issues,”<br />
Ms Bierwirth said.<br />
She said the 73 strong cast<br />
have put their heart and soul into<br />
bringing the production to life.<br />
“They are having a great deal<br />
of fun while learning that a<br />
full blown production of this<br />
nature needs to be polished, slick<br />
and well oiled. They have also<br />
learnt about the importance of<br />
theatre business including stagecraft,<br />
and how everything works<br />
SIDEKICK: Yasmin Marsh<br />

Young artist’s big chance<br />
ashion<br />
IMAGINE SEEING your sculpture<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
on display in the city alongside<br />
the likes of Antony Gormley and<br />
Ronnie van Hout.<br />
That’s about to become a reality<br />
for 16-year-old Villa Maria student<br />
Ruby Williams.<br />
Ruby won the senior section of<br />
the Re:ACTIVATE project organised<br />
by SCAPE Public Art and will<br />
Gardening<br />
soon see her sketches come to life as<br />
a sculpture in Hagley Park.<br />
Although the honour doesn’t<br />
come with the same $800,000 pay<br />
check that Gormley received.<br />
Ruby’s design relates to the concept<br />
of memory and will involve<br />
recreating a tree’s lost limb out of<br />
metal mesh.<br />
The sculpture will be on display<br />
Motoring<br />
September for six weeks.<br />
The design was of a live tree with<br />
its branch previously sawn off due<br />
to damage or disease, Ruby said.<br />
“Replacing that branch with a<br />
wire mesh copy resembling the<br />
memory of the limb that used to be<br />
there. The city is similar in some regards<br />
– it fell during the earthquake<br />
Tasty Bites<br />
and was completely changed, parts<br />
of it were gone but not forgotten.”<br />
Engineers from Lewis and Bradford<br />
have been tasked with taking<br />
Ruby’s idea and making it a reality.<br />
OPPORTUNITY: Ruby Williams<br />
with her original sketches.<br />
She met with the engineers,<br />
SCAPE art staff and Botanic<br />
Gardens staff to choose the perfect<br />
tree.<br />
“I have always loved art and creating<br />
things,” Ruby said.<br />
“This experience is incredibly surreal<br />
to me. As for my future, I am<br />
unsure what path I will go down<br />
but there is a 100 per cent chance it<br />
will be a creative one.”<br />

MAORI LEADERS are likened<br />
to the “mighty” totara tree.<br />
So the Rotary Club of<br />
Belfast Kaiapoi think it’s only<br />
appropriate to identify its future<br />
leaders “young totaras” as well.<br />
This year<br />
that honour<br />
was given<br />
to Kaiapoi<br />
High School’s<br />
Alexandra<br />
McCracken,<br />
(right) 17.<br />
At a special<br />
Rotary<br />
meeting,<br />
Waimakariri<br />
MP Matt<br />
Doocey, presented Alexandra her<br />
award before she planted a totara<br />
tree in the Styx Mill Reserve on<br />
Husseys Rd.<br />
The young totara award<br />
publicly recognises the positive<br />
achievements of young people,<br />
promoting sound role models<br />
for our youth and fostering<br />
responsible attitudes toward the<br />
community.<br />
Alexandra embodies this<br />
through her impressive<br />
schooling and extra curricular<br />
work, the club said.<br />

CBHS set to<br />
defend UC<br />
champs title<br />
against Timaru<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
CHRISTCHURCH Boys’ High<br />
will look to defend their UC<br />
Championship title against<br />
Timaru Boys’ High on Saturday.<br />
They are in the final after a<br />
tough, come-from-behind battle<br />
against Nelson College, which<br />
required the depth off the bench<br />
to get them home 40-34 after<br />
trailing 29-12 at halftime.<br />
The last time CBHS met Timaru<br />
was in round three, with CBHS<br />
winning <strong>22</strong>-17.<br />
Starting fullback Rico Syme,<br />
who is a recent addition to the<br />
first XV due to injuries, slotted<br />
into first-five in the second half<br />
against Nelson and provided a<br />
few moments of magic to help the<br />
team get home.<br />
The final will be played at<br />
CBHS’s Straven Rd ground. They<br />
have made a bit of a habit of<br />
going behind and then making a<br />
comeback, but they will look to<br />
correct that on Saturday.<br />
Timaru made the final after a<br />
solid 24-10 over Christ’s College<br />
in Timaru. Meanwhile, St Bede’s<br />
will play Marlborough Boys’<br />
College in the bowl final after<br />
beating Shirley Boys’ High 36-33,<br />
while St Andrew’s missed out on a<br />
spot in the plate final after a 57-14<br />
defeat to Waimea Combined.<br />

St Andrew’s makes bid<br />
for boys and girls titles<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
ST ANDREW’S College has the<br />
opportunity to do the double<br />
with both its boys and girls<br />
football teams making the finals<br />
in their competitions.<br />
The boys team known as ‘the<br />
thistles’ ground-out a 1-0 win<br />
over Cashmere High last week<br />
to book themselves in the<br />
final.<br />
The girls team cruised past<br />
Burnside High 3-0 to make the<br />
final against Cashmere High who<br />
beat Rangiora High 3-1.<br />
Both finals will be played on<br />
<strong>August</strong> 30 at English Park.<br />
St Andrew’s boys coach Matt<br />
Jansen said it was an awesome<br />
feeling to make the final and the<br />
boys are really keen to take it<br />
home.<br />
“They [St Thomas] have been a<br />
really competitive team this year.<br />
They beat us in the regional finals<br />
in futsal, then beat us 1-0 to win<br />
the league, so now, it’s spoiling<br />
time,” he said.<br />
“We are looking to take the<br />
momentum from this final into<br />
the nationals.”<br />
Cashmere coach Craig Squire<br />
BUSINESSES<br />
FINALS TIME: St Andrew’s beat Cashmere High 1-0 to make<br />
the final against St Thomas on <strong>August</strong> 30 at English Park.<br />
said it was disappointing to not<br />
make the final.<br />
“We played well in a very tight<br />
game with not many chances for<br />
both teams,” he said.<br />
“The coaching team are very<br />
proud of the effort the team has<br />
put in and continue to put in to<br />
developing their football and<br />
improving each week.”<br />
In the other boys semi-final,<br />
Burnside High and St Thomas<br />
saw the back of the net bulge<br />
with eight goals with the team<br />
known as ‘the saints’ getting past<br />
‘the beasts’, 5-3.<br />
Burnside coach David<br />
Williams said they played hard<br />
and gave it their all but let<br />
themselves down in defence.<br />
“We are now turning our<br />
minds to the tournament in<br />
Palmerston North. We won this<br />
tournament two years ago when<br />
it was in Papamoa so it would<br />
be great to have our names on it<br />
again,” he said.<br />
In the plate final, St Bede’s will<br />
take on last year’s champions<br />
Lincoln High at English Park on<br />
<strong>August</strong> 30.<br />
St Bede’s cruised into the final<br />
with a comfortable 4-0 win over<br />
Christchurch Boys’ High, while<br />
Lincoln beat Shirley Boys’ High<br />
1-0.<br />
Aldridge continues golden<br />
run at karate tournament<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
PAPANUI HIGH School’s<br />
Britney Aldridge has continued<br />
her stunning form winning<br />
gold at the world karate<br />
championships on the Gold<br />
Coast.<br />
The 18-year-old won gold<br />
with her team in the senior<br />
women’s kata and bronze in the<br />
individual female senior open<br />
event at the tournament<br />
earlier this month.<br />
It backs up her<br />
gold in the female 18<br />
and over, under-55kg<br />
kumite, and the female<br />
under-21, under-65kg<br />
kumite categories, as well<br />
as bronze in the under-21<br />
kata at the national<br />
karate championships in<br />
Wellington.<br />
Aldridge said it was an<br />
incredible feeling.<br />
“We won 2013 gold in<br />
the junior team, too, so<br />
taking out the senior<br />
open this year was just<br />
the cherry on top,” she<br />
said.<br />
She now turns<br />
her attention to the<br />
Goju world karate<br />
championship in Romania<br />
in September, where she will<br />
defend her 2015 title before<br />
the junior world under-21<br />
karate competition in Spain in<br />
October.<br />
“Defending my title [in<br />
Romania] is going to be a big<br />
experience but, as always, I’m<br />
ready for the challenge,” she said.<br />

HEALTH & AWARENESS<br />
These conditions may be caused<br />
by repetitive tasks, forceful exertions,<br />
vibrations, mechanical compression, or<br />
sustained or awkward positions.<br />
The shorter and tenser the muscle, the<br />
harder it pulls on the places it attaches to<br />
(e.g. the bone). When this happens in the<br />
forearm the pull at those attachments and<br />
tendons causes irritation and inflammation<br />
of those areas. This will be noticed as pain in<br />
the elbow and wrist. When this happens in<br />
the neck and shoulder area, it will be noticed<br />
as local pain, stiffness and sometimes<br />
headaches. The nerves run right through<br />
the muscles. Tension on the muscles causes<br />
pressure on the nerves. As the muscles<br />
shorten, the nerves running through them<br />
have a tendency to both shorten and slide<br />
less well. This causes the nerves to radiate<br />
pain throughout the arm.<br />
Triggerpoints are areas in your muscles,<br />
where a few muscle fibres have contracted<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
in a knot. These knots (the hard and painful originate in your<br />
areas in your muscles felt during massage) neck. Pain in your<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Time Honoured Remedy<br />
Supporting Your<br />
Bowel & Digestive<br />
Function Helps<br />
Prevent Disease<br />
Keeping your digestive system<br />
and bowels functioning efficiently<br />
is definitely an important step in<br />
obtaining and maintaining good<br />
long term health.<br />
It is most important to keep the whole<br />
digestive and elimination systems of the<br />
body working efficiently. Many diseases<br />
have been linked with micro-organisms<br />
(virus) or a bacterial component. We know<br />
that when the digestive system and bowel<br />
function are poor we have many more health<br />
problems. These include arthritis, digestive<br />
problems like reflux and stomach pain,<br />
bladder infections, chronic skin conditions<br />
such as eczema, psoriasis and rashes, poor<br />
eyesight, pain and inflammation, tumors<br />
and a weakened immune system just to<br />
name a few.<br />
Nature’s Sunshine LBS II contains a<br />
highly effective blend of natural herbs to<br />
support the whole digestive system and it<br />
is especially effective at cleansing the lower<br />
bowel and intestinal tract. It is commonly<br />
used for arthritis, constipation, diarrhea,<br />
digestive problems, dry stool, fever, colds<br />
and influenza, flatulence, gallstones, gout,<br />
skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis,<br />
urinary infections, liver dysfunction,<br />
Candida, weakened immune function and<br />
for people who want to keep their health as<br />
good as possible.<br />
The herbs in LBS II help stimulate the<br />
production of digestive fluids and bile for<br />
efficient digestion. This alone may help<br />
prevent many diseases as a properly working<br />
digestive system will itself neutralise many<br />
disease causing organisms. LBS II also<br />
stimulates peristaltic action of the colon<br />
effectively cleansing the colon of any<br />
accumulated build-ups of waste material.<br />
It also relaxes abdominal cramping and<br />
spasms, enhances liver function, purifies<br />
the blood, neutralizes acidic conditions,<br />
helps destroy intestinal parasites and<br />
worms, and fights infection.<br />
Keeping your digestive system and<br />
bowels functioning efficiently is definitely<br />
an important step in obtaining and<br />
maintaining good long term health.<br />

According to a country Doctor “D.C.<br />
Jarvis” from Vermont in the USA cider<br />
vinegar and honey (CV & H) can be an<br />
important part of a long healthy life. Dr.<br />
Jarvis noted Vermonters who regularly<br />
consumed cider vinegar and honey had<br />
excellent health with many putting in a<br />
vigorous day’s work on the farm even when<br />
well into their eighties.<br />
Dr. Jarvis found the effects of cider<br />
vinegar and honey on arthritis can be<br />
remarkable with many patients reporting<br />
almost total relief after taking a course.<br />
As well as a general tonic Dr. Jarvis found<br />
regular administration of cider vinegar and<br />
honey at the onset of complaints such as the<br />
common cold, sinusitis, asthmatic attacks,<br />
hay fever, and childhood diseases such as<br />

stages of completion. There are still great<br />
sites available and we also have a number<br />
of affordable villas ready for immediate<br />
occupation.<br />
Our beautiful Leisure Centre is available<br />
and the pools, gymnasium and library and<br />
lounge area are in use daily. Outside, the<br />
bowling green is very popular along with<br />
Petanque, Mini-golf and Table Bowls.<br />
The residents enjoy an enviable resort style<br />
lifestyle. It is also surprisingly affordable. A<br />
former Christchurch resident, Judith, says<br />
“We couldn’t have all this for what we are<br />
paying if we were still in Christchurch.”<br />
Another resident, David, says “my wife and<br />
chicken pox and measles, was accompanied<br />
by an improvement in the condition with<br />
symptoms either disappearing, or the<br />
conditions were extremely mild and soon<br />
over.<br />
Apple cider vinegar contains all the<br />
goodness of the apple in a form that is<br />
readily accepted by the body. Scientists<br />
have found over 90 different substances<br />
in ACV, among them 20 important trace<br />
elements, minerals, essential enzymes, a<br />
number of different acids including malic<br />
acid, amino acids and roughage in the form<br />
of potash and pectin. A scientific study at<br />
the Shizuka University in Japan has proven<br />
ACV to have potent antioxidant benefits (It<br />
can destroy free radicals, which are a major<br />
factor in ageing.) and also the ACV can<br />

Geraldine is a great little town with a<br />
very pleasant microclimate. There is plenty<br />
to do in and around the town with art<br />
galleries, theatre and cinema, interesting<br />
shops and boutiques, two museums and a<br />
wide range of good places to eat. For the<br />
more adventurous there are river and forest<br />
walks nearby, opportunities for biking and<br />
a choice of two local golf clubs.<br />

ACV and H is a powerful tonic that<br />
also promotes digestion, assimilation of<br />
nutrients and elimination of waste, and<br />
helps neutralize any toxic substances that<br />
enter the body.<br />
It is important to note not all cider<br />
vinegar is made in the traditional way and<br />
results are likely to prove disappointing<br />
with some other vinegars.<br />

Emma’s back!<br />
THAT’S right folks, Emma Palaamo has returned to<br />
the Richmond Club Bistro, and this time she is<br />
running it!<br />
Emma last worked at the Club when her parents<br />
Bev and Steve Palaamo were running the Bistro and<br />
Restaurant pre-EQ.<br />
Unsure of what she wanted to do when she left<br />
school Emma decided to attend university where she<br />
earned a degree in English and Psychology.<br />
“I’ve wondered if I’d ever use my degree, but I love<br />
being in the kitchen. Cooking’s in my blood. It’s what<br />
I’m used to,” said Emma.<br />
Largely trained by her father, Emma said she was<br />
nervous when she was initially offered running the<br />
Bistro.<br />
“My parents have such a good reputation and I don’t<br />
want to let Dad down. The reaction to my menu and<br />
cooking has been great, and regular members are very<br />
happy to see me back.”<br />
With her first few weeks spent gauging what diners<br />
wanted, Emma is confident she has streamlined the<br />
menu to provide a selection to satisfy everyone.<br />
“I’ve listened to what they want and have taken<br />
heed. by bringing back the old with new. I’m also<br />
doing blackboard specials and two course specials, as<br />
well as introducing a Kids’ menu.”<br />
The Club Bistro is open for LUNCH Tuesday to<br />
Sunday (Brunch), for DINNER Wednesday to Sunday<br />
and is also available for private functions.<br />
