Fast food solution sought FOOTPATH
• By Tom Doudney
A CAMPAIGN to crack down
on the proliferation of fast food
outlets has found favour with
city councillors but concerns
were raised over how fast food
could be defined.
Representatives from the
Linwood community, including
schools and health professionals,
made a deputation to the city
council on Thursday asking
for support to limit the ability
of fast food outlets to set up
around schools and low income
areas.
City councillors requested that
staff further investigate options
for possible legislative measures
as well as other measures that
could be taken to encourage
healthy eating and report back
as soon as possible.
All city councillors who
spoke on the matter expressed
support for doing something to
tackle the issue. However, some
including Raf Manji questioned
how fast food could be officially
defined.
“I can see how you could come
up with a planning proposal
where you could limit the size
of food outlets near a school
and that kind of stuff,” Cr Manji
said.
PACKED: The number of fast food outlets in Linwood has caused concern in the community.
“But I think you are delving
into something that is quite
unsolvable in terms of defining
what healthy food is.”
City councillor Yani Johanson
said the city council had a proud
tradition of leading the way on
championing solutions for such
difficult issues.
“We should continue to do
that as we are being asked to
today,” Cr Johanson said.
“This is difficult, and I think
that point has been well made
by everyone, but actually it is
also very simple – it’s whether or
not we wish to stand up for our
community, for our children, for
the health of our city by taking
a more regulatory approach to
these issues.”
Linwood Medical Centre
medical director Jane Heatherington,
who was part of the
group making the deputation,
said the medical centre had
seen the effect of fast food on its
patients over the 35 years that
it had been part of the community.
“In Linwood we have got a
higher proportion of obese and
overweight children than the
rest of Christchurch,” she said.
“We have obese children who
have high blood pressure, high
cholesterol and sleep apnea, we
see the poor diet affects their
learning and their mood, we
see parents with arthritis and
diabetes and liver damage and
then we see their grandparents
with heart disease, renal failure,
amputations, kidney failure and
early deaths.”
In Brief
REPAIRS START
Repairs to footpaths, kerb and
channels along Pages Rd have
begun. The work, which will take
place between numbers 471A and
539 are expected to take until
the end of October to complete.
Driveway access could be affected
for a short period of time but if
this is the case workers will alert
the affected properties before
work starts. The work may result
in increased dust, noise and
vibrations.
BUS DETOURS
Until further notice the Beach Rd
detour will be extended and all
buses will detour away from part
of Beach Rd while road works
are carried out. Buses travelling
towards Parklands will detour
off Beach Rd onto Effingham St,
Pacific Rd, Marine Pde, Beach
Rd, Broadpark Rd and Larnach St
back onto Aston Dr to continue
the normal route. Buses travelling
towards the city will detour
off Aston Dr onto Larnach St,
Broadpark Rd, Beach Rd, Marine
Pde, Pacific Rd and Effingham St
back onto Beach Rd to continue
the normal route. Bus stops 21654
and 21568 on Aston Dr and
stops 12132 and 40869 on Beach
Rd will be closed during this
time. Temporary stops for both
directions are available further
north on Aston Dr.

One man and his 1000 dreams
• By Roy Sinclair
NEIL ANDREWS leads the
way down precarious steps to a
seemingly underground room.
He flicks on a light switch.
I am wowed by a high viaduct
spanning a realistic gorge. My
eyes are led to tall forests, tree
ferns galore and a painted backdrop
depicting a stormy sky.
“This is what I do,” he says.
“It is not what I do in my spare
time.
“I mow the lawns in my spare
time.”
The room was purpose-built
for the 9mm (scale 9mm to the
foot) layout representative of a
one-time railway in Northland.
In his garage he is working on
a second, portable, layout. This is
a narrow-gauge railway based on
French townscapes.
Model railways is an interest
he could not be without.
“When I met my partner,
Helen, I told her it is me and my
trains. They are inseparable.
“She accepted that which was
great.”
He describes railway modelling
“as a thousand dreams
held together by a hundred
unfinished jobs. In other words,
a degree of chaos.”
“Part of the fascination is
HAND-MADE: Model builder, Neil Andrews and his miniature creation of early last century
Northland.
delving into history to discover
how it all would have looked like
early last century,” Mr Andrews
said.
He always liked to do things
with his hands. He enjoyed art
at school – and building things.
Even when he had clockwork
railways he was always cutting
up cardboard boxes to make
buildings.
He recalls scoring designs on
pieces of wood to make boats.
Railways became another part
of it.
Getting into more serious railway
modelling during the late
1950s, there was not much stuff
available and if it was he didn’t
have the money.
If he wanted it he made it.
“My mother used to take me to
the railway station. I remember
being in my pushchair watching
the Lyttelton trains come and
go.
“Then at primary school I was
quite capable of making an Ecclass
electric locomotive with the
distinctive air compressor tanks
across the front. Everyone could
recognise it.”
Later, any new gadget at his
Canterbury University laboratory
would be first examined to
how it would be useful on the
model railway.
“Then we would work out how
it was intended to be used.”
His workplace became known
as “the model train laboratory.”
That’s what people who visited
talked about.
He travelled to model railroad
conventions in the United States,
becoming a member of the
R.G.S. East Hon3 club.
He visited huge model railway
shows in Cologne and Miniature
Wonderland in Hamburg.
“In Germany a model railway
is like a dishwasher. Everyone
has to have one. And most offerings
are German-made. They are
excellent.
“On one European trip Helen
and I were forced off the road by
Tour de France officials.
“We had to divert into a backwater
countryside.
Are you the TYPE to save a Life?
Every year 42,000 New Zealanders rely on donated blood
or blood products.
For many, receiving blood is a life-changing experience and
it’s thanks to the 3,000 Kiwis donating every week that this
can happen
We really need your support, we are coming to New
Brighton for the first time and we NEED YOU TO DONATE!
Your one donation can help save up to 3 people’s lives –
what bettter way to spend an hour of your time? We’ll even
treat you to chocolate biscuits and a cuppa afterwards.
Heke Family Story
When Joseph Heke (Ngapuhi/Ngati Hineuru) started dating
his girlfriend Melissa (Ngati Maniapoto) in 2007, it not only
led him on a path towards becoming a husband and father,
but also put him on a path to saving lives.
Melissa convinced him to become a blood donor early on
in their relationship as she had been a regular donor since
donating at high school. She had seen the process at a
young age whilst going with her Mum to regularly donate
blood and knew that when she was old enough that she
wanted to save lives in this way as well. After becoming
a blood donor, Joseph was approached by the nurses
during one of his donations about joining the New Zealand
Bone Marrow Donor Registry (NZBMDR). He signed up
after learning that Māori donors were sought after for the
Registry. For more information go to www.bonemarrow.
org.nz.
Joseph and his wife Melissa firmly believe “If you can
donate, give”, and between them have now saved over 100
lives in New Zealand, along with one person overseas, with
their generous donations.
The couple have three children who will one day hopefully
follow in their parents’ footsteps to become blood donors,
and join NZBMDR too!
“Seeing her mum donate was where it all started for Mel
and that’s why we take our kids to see it happen now, so
when they grow up, they’ll know it saves lives and that it’s
not painful and scary.” –Joseph Heke

BUILDING: A train layout under construction and a G-scale
layout at last year’s Christchurch Model Train Show.
“There we found towns of
beautiful buildings with terracotta
roofs. We had discovered
the romance of the French countryside.
“Anything French is different.
If you see a French car you know
it is French because it looks nothing
like anything else. It is the
same with railways.
“Their narrow gauge railways
were basically portable. They
could be picked up and laid
beside a road.
“That really intrigued me. Narrow
gauge secondary lines were
introduced to boost the network
of French railways.’’
The unplanned detour instigated
his French narrow gauge layout.
“One develops a modeller’s
mind.
“A modeller will typically think
how it would look in miniature?”
He talks about Hamburg’s
mind-boggling Miniature Wonderland.
“It’s absolutely intriguing. It’s
a huge collection that is pushing
the boundaries of technology and
inspiring manufacturers to pick
up on it with new products.”
“The model aircraft must
represent the peak of model
building.’’
“The model trains have been
running for so long the track is
wearing out.”
The closest we have in
Christchurch is the annual big
model train Show, this year being
held over the weekend of October
1 and 2.
The venue is Pioneer Stadium
in Lyttelton St, Spreydon. It is the
show’s 25th anniversary so promises
to be special.
Mr Andrews was an instigator
of the event, starting a model
train show at Hagley Community
College and then expanding to
the Horticultural Society hall.
Then, the Christchurch Model
Railway Exhibition Society was
formed and took over. Its growth
took it to Pioneer Stadium where
it has been ever since. At its peak
the show attracted 10,000 people
over the two days.
“It’s about its optimum size.
“Considering our modest
Christchurch population we do a
pretty good job,” he said.
This year’s show will help those
wanting to get into the hobby.
“We will have beginners’ train
sets and heaps of demonstrations.
Find out the best models to buy
and learn how to make things.
“Technology will be to the
fore. This is enhancing the hobby
and drawing younger people in.
They can operate a railway from
a PC or mobile phone, utilising
wi-fi and DCC (digital control
systems).”
He says model railway people
are an enthusiastic bunch. They
will do their utmost to share
what they know.
Andrews will be on the demonstrations
desk. It is likely he will
let slip how to disguise a lot of
money spent on the hobby within
the weekly household bills.
SCIRT programme on the home straight
SCIRT’s five year programme of repairs to pipes, roads, bridges and retaining walls is
almost complete and will finish in December.
Most of our repairs involve fixing the city’s underground pipe networks with only small
amount of our work focused on roads.
Our roading work largely involves fixing where we have dug down to repair and replace
the earthquake damaged pipes beneath. The result may look a little patchy but we repair
roads to a reliable and serviceable standard.
The City Council and NZ Transport Agency will continue completing ongoing repairs to the
city's earthquake-damaged roads after SCIRT.
Progress in your neighbourhood
• We’re almost finished connecting homes in Aranui to the new resilient vacuum system. This will be
completed this month. Roading work will continue until the end of the year.
• We’re more than halfway through the extensive repairs to the wastewater, storm water, fresh water
and roading networks in Parklands.
• The three-year programme of repairs to the wastewater, storm water, fresh water and roads in
Burwood is due to finish in the next few months.
• New Brighton will still see major works to the wastewater network and crews repairing small
sections of road until December.

PEGASUS POST
Singer-songwriter has
Singer-songwriter Asti-Loren Newman might only be 18, but she has already
travelled the world and attended the same school as Amy Winehouse. Annabelle
Dick talked to Asti-Loren about her new album, Psychedelic Rose, and getting
barred from the school choir thanks to a questionable comment about her
teacher’s facial hair.
So as a singer-songwriter,
when did you get into music?
I’ve always had a massive
passion for music. When I was
about 11-years-old, I joined
the Christchurch City Chorus,
which is like a 150-person barbershop.
We went to New York
and sung when I was 13, which
was awesome. I worked with
Nolan from the Christchurch
School of Rock in Sumner and
would perform at the Headless
Mexican. I’d also do busking
along the esplanade.
I tried
TALENTED:
Asti-Loren
busked her way
through Europe at
17-years-old.
to join the school choir but got
turned down in year 6, 7 and 8,
because apparently I couldn’t
sing in tune, but I think it was
because I told my music teacher
she had a moustache in front of
the whole class. I told her my
mum is a beauty therapist and
she should go to her and I think
she held that against me. It was
a pretty rude thing for me to say,
but I was only nine-years-old at
the time, so I didn’t know any
better. I was pretty upset about
it so I went to the principal and
told them, ‘I’m setting up my
own barbershop; I’m getting my
own teacher to come and teach it
and I’m going to teach it as well’
and I had more people auditioning
for it than the school choir.
I’ve always been the kind of
person that, if things don’t go my
way, I’m going to make it happen
for myself.
You attended the same music
school as Amy Winehouse –
how did that come about?
When the February 2011
earthquake happened, I was off
school, our house was quite
damaged and my mum
lost her business as well. I
watched the film Fame one
day and I knew I wanted
to go to stage school.
So without telling my
parents, I researched the
best stage schools across
the United States and
the United Kingdom
and I randomly
chose one to
apply for.
I heard
MENTOR: Asti-Loren mentoring Selwyn House Girls School
children last year.
back four days later from the
Susi Earnshaw Theatre School
with a letter of acceptance. Here’s
14-year-old me going, ‘oh no,
what have I done’, so I had to tell
my parents and they were really
supportive. I don’t know many
parents who would let their
14-year-old daughter go to the
UK by themselves.
What was it like attending the
school?
It was awesome. I was the first
person they’d ever had from
Australia/New Zealand. There
was three days a week of dance,
tap, jazz singing, theatre singing,
pop singing, all sorts really. The
teachers were great and really
young, too. One of my teachers
was a back-up dancer for Justin
Bieber and he’d also won
Britain’s Got Talent. I studied
there for two years and then
I got offered a development
contract with a label
in Soho and that’s how I met
my producer Chris Hall who
helped me create my album
Psychedelic Rose. I got to record
in the same vocal booth as Pink
Floyd.
How did it feel living in London
by yourself as a 14-yearold?
That must’ve been a pretty
scary experience?
It wasn’t too scary . . . but
being so young and moving to
another country was a bit of a
culture shock. I had an apartment
just down from school and
I made friends really fast. There
was always people I knew around
me like my uncle in Sweden and
my cousin came through when
he was on his O.E. I wasn’t really
naughty I always had so much
to do. I would go to the London
Central City Library and read
books on Woodstock. I went
to an Audrey Hepburn exhibition
and I’d often go to the East
London markets at the end of
the day and they’d give me free
donuts. They knew when I was
coming and give me all this free
food and I’d walk home with all
my groceries.
Thanks Canterbury
for your continued support
PEGASUS POST Tuesday August 16 2016 7
the world at her feet
And you travelled a bit from
there?
I’m really spontaneous so I
decided to do a busking tour
around Europe. So I contacted
Interrail and Eurail to see if it
was something they were interested
in – they bought it. So they
gave us a 12-day rail pass and we
went from London to Stockholm
to Copenhagen down to Warsaw
in Poland and then to Prague
then Munich, Salzburg, Venice,
Asti, Monte Carlo, Nice and
then Amsterdam all in 12 days
with my best friend who’s a New
Zealand windsurfer. While this
was happening I was only 17. I
have about 50,000 fans online so
I’d post each day were I was and
I’d have all these people turn up
– I didn’t really expect it at all. I
made about €200 (euro) busking
in each city.
So tell me about your
music and your new album
Psychedelic Rock which you
recently released?
The music I’ve established as
my brand is more electronic.
This album is influenced by
the 60s and 70s Americana,
Woodstock and that whole
hippy movement. I love the
era. I watched Jim Carroll’s The
Basketball Diaries and read a
novel he wrote . . . it’s really raw.
This album draws a lot from that.
This album is a concept album
I’ve written myself. It goes from
dark to light as I have this thing
called synaesthesia where I see
music and colour so it helps a
lot with my writing, it’s a bit of
a blessing. I wrote the album’s
track names before I wrote the
songs. I’ve written a novel to
go along with the album and
eventually I want to make it into
a short film. People can interpret
my music any way they want.
They’re not pop songs – it’s a
lot more than that. I don’t just
sit back and let other people
do things for me, I’m a really
involved person in my career so
I do a lot of promoting myself,
I keep up my social media
following and I edit my own
videos.
Do you have any influences
that you draw on when creating
your sound?
I listen to Lana del Rey, The xx,
Haim, Taylor Swift, Marina and
the Diamonds, Fleetwood Mac,
PERFORMING: Asti-Loren’s new album Psychedelic Rose was released on Saturday.
The Zombies, Dire Straits and
Pink Floyd – a real variety really.
I’ve taken different influences
from the greats of each genre and
incorporated them into my work
– whether it’s lyrically, musically
or the way I present myself.
Tell me a bit about growing
up – what’s you’re family like?
I grew up in a house on the top
of Scarborough Hill. I went to
Selwyn House and then St Andrew’s
College. My mother owns
a salon Yazu Hair Salon. She’s
incredibly talented. She’s been
on the L’Oreal creative team and
a part of New Zealand Fashion
Week. She was actually teaching
hairdressing in Asia while
she was eight months pregnant
with me which was pretty crazy.
She’s heavily driven . . . I think
that’s where I get it from. My
mum and my dad met at 15 and
started the business together. He
was going to be a mechanic, but
he’s technically a hairdresser by
trade. They separated when I was
nine so he went to the Caribbean
to buy a boat and sailed it
back to New Zealand to set up a
charter business. So, when I was
younger, I grew up in a boat. I
lived on it in Diamond Harbour
and the Lyttelton marina. I used
to go to school in a dingy. We
had five dalmatian dogs and we’d
be in a five-metre dingy with one
of our dogs at the front and my
brother and I in our posh private
school uniforms. We’d sail from
Diamond Harbour to Lyttelton
and we’d arrive at school soaked.
My little brother Lucca is 16 and
he’s the total opposite of me. He’s
blue-eyed, blonde and tall, while
I’m 1.49m and brunette. We were
both named after towns in Italy.
He’s really into skiing, inventing
and downhill mountain biking.
He made a flame thrower the
other day. I have a weird family.
It sounds like you’ve had an
insanely interesting upbringing!
What else do you love
outside of music?
I love going to the beach and I
love skiing. I did ski racing from
about seven-years-old at Mt
Hutt. We used to go skiing every
single weekend in winter from
when I was seven to 12. I did it
competitively and placed third
in the South Island when I was
younger.
Where to next for you? Where
do you want to end up?
I’m going to the US to film
a music video for my album
next month, then London for
a month, Ho Chi Minh City in
Vietnam after that, and then Bali
all before the end of the year.
Eventually I want to be able to
tour with my albums. I’ve
started on my second album
which is going to be completely
different with a different vibe. To
be a musician as a full time job
is the goal. I’m always aiming
for the top, I’m just that kind of
person. I’ve always written for
bigger things because if you don’t
think you’re going to be big or
don’t have that in your mind,
how are you ever going to get
there?

Keep Chch fluoride-free
Former
personal
trainer John
Verd was
born in
Christchurch’s
sister city
Seattle,
United States, and moved
to New Zealand in January
last year. He writes this
week’s opinion piece on
fluoridation
I love Christchurch water!
It’s one of the many exceptional
things we’d heard about
the Garden City before moving
here.
So I was naturally concerned to
learn about proposed changes to
our water system.
I discovered at an early age
how location could affect water
quality.
When my grand-mother
moved to the Cascade Mountains
near Seattle, she said that the tap
water there had a ”sweetness” to
it.
She was absolutely right - there
was a huge difference between
our aquifers in Spokane and her
spring water in Snoqualmie.
It wasn’t until much later that
I paid any attention to what is
actually in our water.
I’d heard people protest against
fluoridation, but wrote them off
as paranoid conspiracy theorists.
It wasn’t until becoming a
personal trainer that I actually
questioned the practice.
The research was eye opening.
Our water is being treated
with an industrial waste product
called hydrofluorosilicic acid.
This chemical is a by-product
of the phosphate fertiliser industry.
Although classified as hazardous
waste, it is barrelled up and
sold, unrefined, to communities
across the country.
This is the fluoride in public
water.
Former vice president and
senior chemist at the United
States Environmental Protection
Agency headquarters, Dr William
Hirzy, had this to say about
it:
“If this stuff gets out into the
air, it’s a pollutant; if it gets into
the river, it’s a pollutant; if it gets
into the lake, it’s a pollutant;
but if it goes straight into your
drinking water system, it’s not a
pollutant. That’s amazing.”
Hydrofluorosilicic acid is far
different from the sodium fluoride,
which is not for ingestion,
commonly used in toothpaste.
This begs the question: Why
would they use this dangerous
form of fluoride? A likely reason
is cost.
Because it costs corporations
many thousands of dollars per
tonne to neutralise and dispose
of it, they instead sell it to municipalities
as a ‘product’.
Chemist and world-renowned
fluoride researcher Dr Paul Connett
lectured in Christchurch in
July 2016.
He listed 50 human studies
finding that elevated fluoride exposure
is associated with reduced
IQ.
Christchurch has managed to
remain fluoride free for the last
30 years, but new legislation may
allow for fluoridation by 2018
unless the public demands a
place at the table in this decision.
And that’s what is keeping me
up at night.
Do you, like John Verd, stay
awake at night worried
about fluoridation? Should
we allow fluoridation of our
water? Share your views

FLAME FILES
Give yourself the best
chance of escape
• By Mark Thomas – Fire Risk
Management Officer
BY RECENT standards the past
week has been remarkably quiet.
We’ve still been to plenty of
false alarms, ambulance assistance
calls and car crashes but
fires, apart from the inevitable
kitchen cooking fires (two this
week), have been few in number.
So let’s have a look at those
things that can make our lives
safer from fire that are easy to
arrange in any home.
Firstly, and by far most importantly,
is the use of smoke
alarms.
I grew up in the days before
widespread plastics and foams.
So when I was a kid it took
about 10min for any fire inside
a house to go from ignition to
flashover (the state where the
entire contents of a room are on
fire).
Now, with the proliferation
of oil-based products (those
plastics and foams) in homes the
time to flashover is reduced to
3min.
That’s where smoke alarms,
recommended in every bedroom,
hallway and living room,
PEGASUS POST
are vital to give us the earliest
possible warning of fire so we
can escape well before that 3min
is up.
Because if you don’t, you’re
probably in real trouble.
After your own escape, making
sure everyone else in the
house is aware, is the first priority
before having a meeting place
where all can be accounted for,
and phoning 111 by cellphone or
neighbour’s landline.
Along with smoke alarms
these are the basics of a home
escape plan.
If we all had one I’d investigate
far fewer fatal fires.
That would be fantastic!

Old league club dumping ground
• By Andrew King
THE HEAD of a sheep
and household waste has
been cleared away from the
back of the former Linwood
rugby league clubrooms in
Phillipstown.
The building, located between
Olliviers Rd and Matheson Rd,
has been empty since the February
22, 2011, earthquake and has
been a dumping ground creating
what residents say, is a health
risk to surrounding properties.
Linwood rugby league spokesman
Mike O’Halloran said he
was disgusted to find the huge
amount of rubbish at the former
clubrooms.
“I organised someone to come
and take the rubbish away,” he
said.
A local YMCA group dragged
most of the rubbish into a big
pile before it was taken away last
week.
While a lot of the rubbish
has been removed a resident
said there was still a lot more
buried in the shrubs and bushes
that surround the back car park
– a badly damaged boat is still
in the middle of the car park
also.
It is that rubbish, he believes,
is attracting rats and mice whose
populations were growing to
“plague-like levels.”
City council principal adviser
of regulatory compliance Fiona
Proudfoot said it is currently investigating
a complaint about the
property from June in relation to
the pest problem.
“The council does investigate
and take action where necessary
in situations where rubbish has
been dumped that may attract or
harbour vermin,” she said.
However, because the property
is in private ownership she said it
is the owners who are responsible
for the property.
Linwood league sold the
property to an investor with the
finalisation of that deal expected
in the next few weeks.

more be done to prevent
further dumping on unused
properties in the city? Share

GETTING MECHANICAL
UPGRADE: The Shirley Hawks clubrooms are set for an upgrade following a $10,000 win
League club gets funds for upgrade
A GROUNDSWELL of
support from the local
community has helped the
Shirley Hawks Rugby League
Club win a $10,000 cash
injection to fix up their club.
The Woodstock Rugby League
Club fix-up competition asked
league fans to nominate their
local club via Facebook with a
short description on why they
deserved an upgrade.
Shirley was the Canterbury
recipient of the national competition.
Club supporter Kim
McDiarmid was one of the
first to nominate the Hawks,
describing the club as going
above and beyond for their
players and fans.
Home to five children’s
teams, three senior teams and
a women’s team, club manager
Bernie Katene says the Shirley
Hawks are not the largest rugby
league club in the area, but the
players and supporters have a lot
of heart and the club want to do
right by them.
The club plans to use the winning
funds to upgrade the club
building, including the
bar, which had been neglected
in favour of other improvements.
“It’s a big ask for funding
to upgrade the bar, because
there’s always something else
that needs to be done,” Mr
Katene said.
As a community-focused club,
having attractive clubrooms is
important.
“We rely on the community to
survive. Having a decent place
to gather and socialise keeps
interest in the team and in our
events,” MrKatene said.

EQC UPDATE KEEPING YOU INFORMED | AUGUST 2016
The changing shape of EQC
The Earthquake Commission’s work in
Canterbury is entering a new phase as
it settles the final earthquake claims for
the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, says
EQC Chief Executive, Ian Simpson.
“Over the past few months we’ve been
looking closely at what remains to be
done and we will be carefully matching
the workforce to the work that still needs
completing.
As part of this, EQC has developed a
proposal on how EQC will be organised in
2017 to implement its work in Canterbury,
while continuing its national work.”
EQC began consultation with its staff
this week on a proposed smaller structure
for 2017.
“As we make changes over the next few
months, one thing isn’t changing: we will
retain a presence in Canterbury until we
have met our obligations to our customers.
The proposal is for an organisation with
383 positions from January 2017,” Mr
Simpson said.
The proposals for the new structure impact
the 868 EQC people on fixed term
employment agreements to December
2016 or on contracts for service.
Mr Simpson says the reduction in staff
numbers had been signalled to staff earlier
this year, with more detail given
at EQC staff update sessions in July.
He was grateful for the professionalism
of EQC staff; continuing to achieve key
milestones for Canterbury customers
during a time of change and personal
challenge.
By the end of the year, EQC’s target
is to have:
• completed all of the approximately
67,900 managed home repairs.
• settled all of the approximately 99,000
residential building claims scheduled for
first-time cash settlements.
• settled all of the more than 187,000
contents claims.
• settled green zone land claims for about
73,000 properties.
• resolved 75% of the remedial requests
we had on our books as at 30 June 2016
• cash settled 90% of the 3,118 drainage
claims we had received by 30 June
2016.
• cash settled the 13,985 damage claims
received following the series of quakes
in Canterbury between February and
June 2016.
Mr Simpson says that what remains to be
done in 2017,is to continue resolving
remedial requests on properties where
EQC has managed a repair, and continue
resolving drainage enquiries.
“The level of work left is of a much smaller
scale than the Canterbury Home Repair
Programme was designed for. We need
a smaller, fit-for-purpose approach to finish
the work,” Mr Simpson said.
“By 2017 we will have a new approach for
handling the remaining work, including
remedial requests. We’re working on the
details of this now, including talking to
Fletcher EQR. We hope we will have a
clearer picture around September,”
Mr Simpson said.
As at 31 July 2016:
• there were 238 substantive repairs left,
which we aim to have resolved by the
end of the year.
• there were 335 secondary repairs (such
as garages and chimneys) to do.
There is also a range of administrative and
financial tasks to be completed.
“I know it has not been an easy journey for
some EQC Canterbury customers. We
didn’t get everything right. I’m the first to
admit that. But EQC has worked hard to
learn from its mistakes and improve how
we work not just for Canterbury, but for all
New Zealand,” Mr Simpson said.
Outside of Canterbury, EQC needs to be
ready to respond to any future event and
continues negotiating and managing
natural disaster reinsurance for the country.
EQC will also continue settling the 5,000
to 8,000 natural disaster claims it receives
on average every year, funding research to
a tune of about $16 million annually, and
educating the public about natural hazards
and how to mitigate these.
Remedial requests
EQC has streamlined its process for handling new
remedial requests from customers received from
1 August, 2016.
EQC Chief Executive, Ian Simpson, says the new process
aims for faster resolution with customers having the
opportunity to provide information upfront and state their
preference for a cash settlement or a managed repair
where remedial work is required.
The changes have been introduced after positive
customer feedback on the process used to manage claims
from the February 2016 earthquake, where customers had
the opportunity to submit more information upfront to
enable quicker turnaround.
Many customers going through the February 2016 claims
management process are positive or very positive about
their experience. EQC is now using this approach for new
remedial requests, and customers will be asked to send in
information such as photographs and builders’ quotes.
Although cash settlement will provide a quicker
resolution, it may not suit everyone, Mr Simpson says.
“So if a customer prefers that a contractor do the work,
then EQC will arrange for that to happen. But EQC’s
Community Contact Team and independent customer
advocate groups will be available to support any cashsettled
customers who aren’t confident in sourcing their
own contractors,” he says.
Of the 5,720 open remedial requests, EQC has identified
approximately 1,500 properties that cannot be resolved
through a managed repair before 2017. The new process,
while largely designed for new remedial requests, will be
available to these customers and EQC will be making
contact with them from late August to ask if they prefer a
cash settlement or managed repair during 2017.
Customers wanting to discuss remedial requests can
contact EQC by phone 0800 DAMAGE (326 243) or email
info@eqc.govt.nz
Drainage
As at June 30 2016, EQC had 3,118 drainage damage
enquiries to be resolved. To ensure timely settlement of
these claims, EQC has introduced a panel of licenced
drain layers to identify earthquake damage.
On settlement, customers get a detailed assessment of
the earthquake damage, a documented repair strategy,
and the costing for the repair. EQC expects to resolve
90% of the drainage claims, lodged by 30 June, in 2016.
EQC is concentrating on resolving as many drainage
claims as possible that were received by June, this year.

SBHS marches back into final
• By Gordon Findlater
SHIRLEY BOYS’ High School
will make their second UC
Championship grand final
appearance in as many year’s
after a 17-14 win over Christ’s
College at Upper.
They will meet Christchurch
Boys’ High School in Saturday’s
final at Rugby Park, CBHS defeated
Nelson College 10-3 in the
other semi-final.
Shirley have made a habit of
pulling off upsets in knockout
games. It’s the second year in a
row they have qualified for the
semi-finals in fourth position
and defeated the competition’s
top qualifier. Last year they
upset CBHS 25-17 at the same
stage.
“Last year was our first grand
final appearance in 12 years, I’m
just pleased it hasn’t taken another
12 years to get back there,”
said Shirley Boys’ High School
rugby administrator John Fox.
On a heavy field the big
Shirley forwards revelled early.
In a polished and aggressive
opening Shirley scored two converted
tries to take a 14-0 lead.
Tighthead prop Darius Fidow
barged over in the third minute,
loosehead Jim Tuipulotu then got
Shirley’s second less than 10min
later.
“We were quietly confident
about Saturday. Knowing the
weather wasn’t going to be great
we picked a big forward pack to
try and bully them a bit. The
fact our two props got the tries
was vindication of that,” said
Fox.
Christ’s got back into the game
before half-time through two
Ngani Punivai penalties. The gap
was narrowed even further on
the stroke of 30min when Dallas
McLeod ripped the ball from a
maul on the Shirley 22, before
crossing the line to make it 11-14.
In the 62nd-minute Jackson
Taylor kicked a penalty from
25m out to nudge Shirley ahead,
a lead they would hang onto by
the skin of their teeth. Christ’s
College thought they had crossed
the line to steal a win on the
stroke of full-time, but they were
denied by the video referee after
five minutes of deliberation.
“It’s a mixed feeling because
we don’t have a TMO (video
referee) every game of the season.
It’s almost unfair to have a TMO
decide the game when all season
long it’s been the ref making the
call,” said Fox.
The decision went their way,
but Shirley will now turn attention
to a CBHS side they
narrowly lost to just over a week
ago, 13-19.
“Our guys have a lot of belief,
they felt that one got away from
them,” says Fox.
Shirley will be hope to have
more luck than 12 months ago
when they lost to St Bede’s 13-32
in the grand final.
A large chunk of this year’s
squad were part of that match.
Fox believes that having a dozen
players that have experienced a
grand final could give them the
slight edge they need.
They’ll need every bit of an
advantage they can get against
CBHS after an impressive match
against Nelson in the rain.
ONE STEP AWAY: Shirley will
meet Christchurch BHS in
Saturday’s UC Championship
final. The two teams met
earlier in the month, CBHS
won 19-13.

Improvisation earns
chef gold title
• By Gabrielle Stuart
BLAKE HAINES of Richmond
beat chefs from around the
country to take the National
Commis Chef of the Year title
this month, in spite of missing a
crucial ingredient.
The young chef, who works at
Chillingworth Road restaurant
in Redwood, was setting out his
equipment and ingredients at
the competition in Auckland
when he realised his salt was
missing.
In the rush to catch his
flight from Christchurch at
5am that morning he had left it
sitting on the bench at home, he
said.
The chefs competing
had to bring all their own
equipment and ingredients
to the competition from their
seasonings to their pots and
pans – which made for some
funny looks when going
through bag checks at the
airport, he said.
It was too late to buy any
more, so he just had to work
with what he had.
But he went on to win gold
for his main, an Akaroa Salmon
duo half pan-fried and half
wrapped in nori seaweed, and
cooked in plenty of chicken
stock to make up for the missing
seasoning.
Fellow Chillingworth Road
chef Eric Lim also took home a
gold award from the competition
for his entree, and was
named runner up Chef of the
Year.
Winning a national title was
incredibly satisfying, Mr Haines
said.
He had dreamed of becoming
a chef since he was about eight
years old, cooking meals for
his family – then things like
spaghetti bolognese or chocolate
chip biscuits, he said.
“My family were good critics,
although my mum never appreciated
the mess in the kitchen,”
he said.
At about 14 he got an afterschool
job washing dishes for a
local restaurant, and from there
he was hooked, he said.
He worked for a while in
Dunedin and at the Hermitage
Hotel at Mount Cook, before
moving to Christchurch with
his girlfriend early this year.
He knew Chillingworth Road
owner and chef Darren Wright
through his work on the Culinary
Olympics NZ squad, and
said he wanted the chance to
work with him.
His main role at the restaurant
is as pastry chef, which he said
was something he had always
enjoyed.
“For customers the first thing
they try is the bread and the last
is the dessert, so it either ruins
or makes someone’s evening.
Hopefully, they are the two
things they remember most,” he
said.
After seeing Blake’s work
in the competitions, Olympic
squad member and
Christchurch chef Mark
Sycamore asked him to travel to
Greece with him in September
this year to compete at the
WACS WorldChefs Congress as
his commis chef.

A NEW Cares Appliances
premises in Ferrymead
has attracted a number of
complaints from residents
over its bright green colour
scheme.
The whiteware appliance
store has copped criticism
before their new building
has even opened on Ferry
Rd.
It is set to open in early
September.
Cares Appliances owner
Matthew Carpenter said it
was the first time he had
received complaints, in
spite of his business being
in the city for 10 years.
“I had a complaint that
said the colour was terrible
and disgusting. I’ve also
had comments from third
parties who’d seen the
colour and were put off by
it,” Mr Carpenter said.
The new premises drew
the following criticism via
text:
“It looks disgusting.
Contributes nothing to
whiteware warehouse
Ferrymead. You won’t get
any support bringing that
here . . . sorry! Already the
talk of the community. Just
so you know . . . perhaps a
re-think? It might work at
Eastgate.”
Mr Carpenter is welcoming

from residents
about the premises
but he said it was unfair
to insult other parts of the
city.
“It’s cruel of them
patronise and disparage
the people of the eastern
side but obviously someone’s
got a bit of an elitist
mindset going on,” Mr
Carpenter said.

Mr Carpenter offered
the complainant a discount
of 30 per cent out of goodwill.
Ferrymead residents
have been successful in
ousting a brightly coloured
business from the area
before.
In 2007 the Mitre 10
Mega in Ferrymead building
attracted complaints
for featuring a 160m-long
bright orange wall that
overlooked the conservation
wetland.
The company eventually
agreed to repaint the wall
silvery-white after residents
threatened a boycott.

Ensuring a safe work place
Learning first aid is not only a part of ensuring a safe
work place, but also an integral part of our engagement with the
wider community. We all learn the necessary skills to ensure that
in times of emergency we are able to assist our work colleagues,
but are we able to take these skills home, into the community or
on to the sports field?
not all work places are the same and the injury risk for each place
can be wide and variable. The office attended by administrators
does not carry the same risk as those people working with heavy
machinery, or perhaps at some distance from a regular ambulance
service. it is therefore essential that you pick the right first aid
course to suit all of your activities – both professional and social.
take, for example, an office worker who does not have a high
risk work environment and whose concern might be to ensure that
they can deal with minor cuts and superficial injuries, or the ability
to perform effective CPr. These skills can be achieved on a course
of eight hours duration and would generally fit into low to medium
risk area. But take this same person on to a sports field either as a
spectator or player when a higher level injury occurs. The eight
hour course covering unit standards 6402 and 6401 (or 26551 and
26552) does not cover head neck and spinal injuries, eye injuries,
hypothermia and poisonings.
The majority of injuries occur outside of the work place, in
fact one in three injuries occurs in the home, making it the most
common place for injuries to happen. new Zealand children
are twice as likely to die through injury as children who live in
australia. They mostly die as a result of motor vehicles accidents
or falls in the home. fatalities from leisure and sport are not far
behind those in the workplace.
The wider 12 hour course teaches the additional unit standard
6400 and provides a wide knowledge base for medium to high risk
environments. This course covers many of the skills required to
deal with the most common injuries, such as falls (which can result
in head, neck and spinal injuries) and dealing with complex scenes
such as motor vehicle accidents.
if you are not sure on the course best suited to your needs, ask
your accredited first aid training provider. They can explain the
course content and give you options that will best suit your needs.
Look beyond the workplace and consider your family and your
location. Check that you have a good quality first aid kit that is
up-to-date with replenished items, and that everyone knows where
it is located.

A game changer in the fight
against Parkinson’s Disease
If you have Parkinson’s disease, you cannot
afford to underestimate the benefits of
exercise. Being sedentary is one of the fastest
ways to see your symptoms get worse. To be
the best you can be, consider a revolutionary
Parkinson’s programme, PD Warrior, run by
Muscle People Physiotherapy.
“Exercise needs to be a front line defence
for people with Parkinson’s disease. PD
Warrior aims to re-wire the brain to allow
everyday movements and activities to be
performed with greater ease. Just like your
muscles benefit from cross- training, your
brain also benefits from being challenged and
surprised.” Melissa McConaghy, co-founder
of PD Warrior and Specialist Neurological
Physiotherapist.
Purposeful movement can combat the loss
of motor control seen in Parkinson’s disease.
PD Warrior combines a high effort, intensive
work-out with a challenging combination
of movements and mental strategy. It is
designed for people with early stage or mild
Parkinson’s disease with the aim of slowing
down the progress of the disease.
“PD Warrior is loads of fun and can get
very loud with plenty of variety to keep
people engaged. you get to connect with
like-minded people who want to fight their
symptoms,” says Laurie Moore, Director of
Muscle People Physiotherapy.
Neil, from Rangiora, has been attending
the PD Warrior programme and says; “The
exaggerated movement keeps the body
moving rather than seizing up”. Neil keeps
up the exercises at home during the week and
says “that’s how you get the most benefit out
of it.” He has been playing more golf and is
able to work a couple of days a week.
Muscle People has helped clients achieve
some significant milestones through PD
Warrior. Those who come to the PD Warrior
circuit style programme at the city clinic each
week report feeling more confident in their
movements and are able to move more freely
and get back into life.
The first step in the PD Warrior
programme is an assessment at Muscle
People Physiotherapy. for more information
or to book your assessment telephone the
friendly team at Muscle People on
360 3606.”
PD Warrior not only re-trains your
brain, it also helps you to get -
• Your life back – get back to doing
the things you love.
• Stronger and healthier, so you feel
better about yourself.
• More comfortable doing several
things at one time.
• Better balance... prevent
dangerous accidents and falls.
• Able to do all the little things that
you have recently abandoned.
Parkinson’s -
• Parkinson’s is a progressive
neurodegenerative condition
which effects the part of the brain
responsible for initiating and coordinating
movement.
• Approximately 1 in 500 people
have the condition.
• Twenty percent of people affected
by Parkinson’s are of working age
(15-64 years).
PD Warrior -
PEGASUS POST
• Uses a unique combination of
physical and cognitive activities to
drive the brain’s natural ability to
re-wire itself.
• PD Warrior retrains the brain
and helps people feel stronger and
fitter.
• Muscle People Physiotherapy run
the PD Warrior each week with a
group of 10 people.

young minds’ in Christchurch too.
Stems prides itself on providing flexible,
affordable and personalised childcare for
busy families who would dearly love their

learning childhood experience .“This
option isn’t often possible for families
today for many reasons, but is so very
important for our little people” says
Emma. “ My role is to work personally
with each family to find the best match
in an Educator for them…I love helping
create these special relationships!”

Get rid of dampness
in your house
noW WITH the colder and wetter weather on
its way, home owners are focusing on ways to
make their homes comfortable, warm and healthy
for their families throughout winter. rISIng
DAMP is an issue that affects many of our
older properties which suffer from poor, or no,
insulation. In Canterbury especially, post-quake,
many people have relocated to homes that suffer
from rising damp which can be associated with
health problems. Independent tests have shown
that up to 40 litres of water can rise from the
ground and enter a house every day, leading to
mildew, mould, condensation and musty smells.
Moulds can produce various allergic reactions
and the frail, elderly and very young are especially
vulnerable.
Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd is a locally
owned and operated firm. The team understands
the problems caused by rising damp and are
there to help. They will come to your damp home
and pump a lightweight, flowable foam concrete
under your timber floored home. Specially
adapted for our new Zealand conditions and
applications it provides a layer of protection
against rising moisture. An unexpected benefit
that the team at Canterbury Foam Concrete
have noticed recently, is that many owners
of properties which had underfloor foam
concrete installed, reported that it also provided
protection against liquefaction after
the earthquakes.
Contact Canterbury Foam Concrete Ltd
now for your free, no obligation quote and
complimentary appraisal of your underfloor
ventilation needs. Phone 03 376 4608 or 0508

VenTILATIon
This includes both the exchange of air to the
outside as well as circulation of air within the
building. It is one of the most important factors
for maintaining acceptable indoor air quality in
buildings.
Filtered air supply for summer and filtered
and warmed air in winter creates a healthy
environment in which to live and work. In case
of poor or insufficient air intake from outside,
the oxygen content decreases, humidity and
dustiness levels increase. If exhaust ventilation
is not provided or it is not effective, polluted air,
smells, humidity and harmful substances are not
removed.
Low oxygen with high carbon dioxide causes
stuffiness in the room and occupants can feel
drowsy. Invisible harmful substances like a
high content of dust and tobacco smoke are
harmful and can cause various diseases. even
bad smells can cause discomfort or irritate the
nervous system. In summer, it’s easy to open
windows for cross ventilation, however as winter
approaches, we start to shut up out houses to
trap in the heat and as a result, air quality can
decline.
It is therefore very important to ensure good
air quality indoors through adequate ventilation.

Tackle the skifield road in an Alltrack
• By Ross Kiddie
STAR MEDIA, the company
which I am employed by,
embraces advertising creativity.
We strive for layout and design
which captures reader and viewer
interest. That being the case, I
was mystified when Volkswagen
New Zealand’s recent television
advertising campaign was
withdrawn when some viewers
complained to the Broadcasting
Standards Authority.
The commercial surrounded
Volkswagen’s Passat Alltrack, and
was a light-hearted take involving
a person falling over backwards
on a slippery boat launching
ramp. That ad often had me
smiling when I was preparing
dinner and watching the news. I
was disappointed – world gone
mad – I thought.
That aside, the Alltrack is an
interesting variation on the popular
mid-size wagon and as its
name suggests it has four-wheeldrive
and suspension raised
27mm from the standard Passat.
Volkswagen is no stranger to
this concept, they have long had
models which have just that little
bit extra in terms of ability. The
Alltrack is a cross between an
everyday vehicle and one which
will take you off-road, not so
much in the serious stuff, but it
will get you out of a sticky, low
grip situation, hence the advertisement.
And on that subject, it
also gets a 2.2-tonne tow rating,
so hauling that large boat is a
real probability.
Under the bonnet sits a 2-litre,
turbocharged diesel engine. The
four-cylinder, twin camshaft unit
is rated with 150kW and 400Nm,
the latter punching out its power
all of the way from 1900rpm
to 3300rpm; consequently, it is
a strong, energetic unit which
works through a dual clutch,
direct shift gearbox.
The six-speeder allows the
engine to work freely, between
the two, drive is unimpeded,
the mid-range diesel surge is
evident. Unladen, the Passat
Alltrack will scamper to
100km/h from a standstill in
8sec, and will launch to 120km/h
from 80km/h in 5sec, the turbo
boost offering vivid acceleration.
And that is the beauty with
the big four-cylinder diesels,
there is a lot of grunt on offer,
and it’s no wonder Volkswagen
are confident of high tow
capacity.
Perhaps the most exciting figures
are those of its fuel usage.
Volkswagen claim a 5.2-litre per
100km/h (54mpg) combined
cycle average, that sits well with
VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT ALLTRACK: Grip for slippery surfaces.
the 6.6l/100km (43mpg) figure
showing constantly on the dash
panel readout. At 100km/h the
engine sips fuel at the rate of an
amazing 4l/100km (70mpg) with
the engine turning over slowly at
just 1700rpm.
These results are extraordinary
for a big vehicle and certainly
serve to prove how effective diesel
engine manufacturers have
become in terms of efficiency.
I took the test car on the twists
and turns of the Port Hills. It
was only a few weeks ago that I
evaluated the standard Passat,
and was keen to find out if the
extra ride height affected the
Alltrack’s handling ability. I can
report there’s is little noticeable
difference, grip is well promoted
through Continental sport tyres
(245/45 x 18in), while steerage
and body balance are accurate
and controlled respectively.
Of course the suspension
is fully independent and
there is a lot of travel within
those elements; that being the
case, bumps and ruts are well
absorbed and ride comfort has
been given high priority.
I didn’t take the Alltrack offroad
as such, but I did take it
through a short cross-country
track in an endeavour to get
some photos. The suspension
absorbs the uneven surfaces
beautifully, and wheel-to-ground
contact is manufactured so that

six-speed automatic.
• Performance –

• Fuel usage – 5.2l/100km
utmost traction is gleaned.
I can see the Alltrack being
used as winter sport recreational
transport such as tackling the
skifield access road. It’s a vehicle
that does all the things a typical
sport utility vehicle is capable of,
yet it is packaged in a more traditional
style.
The entire in-cabin area is
manufactured for comfort and is
decked out with all the features
you’d expect from a $57,990 car.
I’ve long embraced the
traditional station wagon,
especially those from Europe.
The Alltrack takes that concept
one step forward and I’m pleased
that it has such a strong foothold
globally (no pun intended). I’ll
be watching with interest how
well it is received here.

Topic is death
Local musician, Dizzy Height is proud to
announce the completion of his latest
recording, Passing Shadows.
“It's safe to say that this album is very,
very different and deals with a topic not
many are game to talk about let alone record
an album about, and that is the subject of
death,” says Dizzy Height. “Having worked
as an Embalmer/Funeral Director for 9
years I have seen a lot of death. The
inspiration for the album is based on my
many experiences.”
Consisting of nine tracks, the recording is
said to be a very thought provoking and
inspiring CD.
Written, performed, and produced by
Dizzy Height, the tracks feature a unique
blend of classically inspired pieces infused
with traditional rock guitar.
From the opening title track 'Passing
Shadows' to the final track 'After Life' the
album has a positive theme which
encompasses all the things that most people
have thought about at some stage.
