Computers through generations<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
IN 1992, Tim Bell taught<br />
computer science to primary<br />
school pupils – without a<br />
computer.<br />
The computer age was in its<br />
infancy and there were very few<br />
Thieves target surf<br />
equipment<br />

around for school children to<br />
use.<br />
So teaching them about<br />
computer science was all<br />
worksheet-orientated.<br />
Now 25 years later,<br />
Professor Bell (above) has won<br />
an international award for his<br />
contribution to computer science<br />
education.<br />
The Dallington man will<br />
recieve the award in Baltimore in<br />
February next year at the largest<br />
computing education conference<br />
worldwide, The SIGCSE Technical<br />
Symposium.<br />
The perfect leg of lamb<br />
Small things that will make a<br />
huge difference to your table<br />
Along with other colleagues,<br />
Prof Bell led the development of<br />
Computer Science Unplugged,<br />
a system of activities which<br />
allows students to learn about<br />
computer science, without computers.<br />

• By Sophie Cornish<br />
THE CENTRAL New Brighton<br />
School site could be sold to<br />
private developers.<br />
A community meeting will be<br />
held tomorrow, with a key focus<br />
being the future of the Roy Stokes<br />
Hall which is on the site.<br />
There is concern the hall will<br />
be also demolished as part of any<br />
new development on the Seaview<br />
Rd site.<br />
Said Renew Brighton manager<br />
Sylvia Smyth: “The hall was built<br />
for and has always functioned as<br />
both a community and school asset.<br />
It has been a treasured by the<br />
community for over 40 years, including<br />
serving as an emergency<br />
centre after the February, 2011,<br />
earthquake.”<br />
“The site is destined for sale<br />
and the community have not<br />
been consulted at all in this process.<br />
We have asked for a pause<br />
in this process so that the community<br />
has the space and time<br />
to decide what comes next,” said<br />
Miss Smyth.<br />
Renew Brighton will host<br />
tomorrow’s meeting with the<br />
Christchurch Circus Trust, which<br />
leases the hall.<br />

THERE’S ANOTHER Warren<br />
Hawke surf book for the coffee<br />
table this Christmas.<br />
The evergreen New Brighton<br />
photographer has just published<br />
another gem, full of surfers and<br />
other local surfing tidbits (see<br />
page 7). It takes an in depth look<br />
at Scarborough Beach with its specialist<br />
Malibu-style waves, surfing<br />
personalities, local board riding<br />
clubs and international surfing<br />
event, ‘The Single Fin Mingle’.<br />
New Brighton, Waikuku and a<br />
secret bay on Banks Peninsula also<br />
feature. The bay hasn’t been named<br />
in the book. Hawke said he wants<br />
to keep it for the surfers who know<br />
how good it is.<br />
Fair enough Warren, I’ll keep<br />
a lid on it too in this column for<br />
those who have gone there for<br />
many years. I’m sure those who<br />
can ride those pretty impressive<br />
waves won’t want it congested.<br />

Rockabilly venue in doubt<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
ROCKABILLY Show and Shine’s<br />
future at Rawhiti Domain may be<br />
in doubt.<br />
The annual event which brings<br />
more than 8000 people to the<br />
domain may have to find a new<br />
venue if the Christchurch<br />
Archery Club get their wish.<br />
Event<br />
organiser Robbie<br />
Baigent (left)<br />
said for the<br />
past two years<br />
organisers have<br />
fought to keep<br />
the event at the<br />
domain and have struggled to<br />
find a suitable date for next year’s<br />
event.<br />
Mr Baigent was required to<br />
confirm the dates for the event<br />
with every group which uses the<br />
domain.<br />
All agreed to support the<br />
event, except for the archery club,<br />
which said no to every date organisers<br />
put forward, Mr Baigent<br />
said.<br />
“For us to change these dates,<br />
it will split our audience and<br />
attendees making the event nonviable<br />
for us and in course taking<br />
away from our community,” Mr<br />
Baigent said.<br />
ISSUES: For the Rockabilly’s Show and Shine event held at Rawhiti Domain if they continue<br />
to clash with the Christchurch Archery Club which has concerns about noise and health and<br />
safety.<br />
The archery club suggested<br />
one date to the Rockabilly<br />
organisers; however, it was not<br />
suitable for them.<br />
The club has concerns for<br />
noise and health and safety.<br />
Club president Dave Henshaw<br />
said the group wants to work<br />
with all parties involved to reach<br />
a suitable outcome, however,<br />
noise is a big concern.<br />
“Our events are controlled by<br />
what is called a national judge<br />
and the national judge is the<br />
person who can say ‘yay’ or ‘nay’<br />
if anything goes wrong because<br />
of certain safety requirements<br />
and noise. The archers need to<br />
hear any controls for safety that<br />
are shouted out by the national<br />
judge.”<br />
Mr Henshaw said the noise<br />
at the recent event was “exceptional.”<br />
“We could not have held<br />
a national event on that day<br />
because of the noise. However,<br />
we are still trying to come to<br />
grips with it and find a way we<br />
can accommodate all,” said Mr<br />
Henshaw.<br />
The group called noise control<br />
on the event which took place on<br />
<strong>November</strong> 11.<br />
The city council completed<br />
noise testing and found the<br />
event met with noise requirements.<br />
Mr Baigent is calling on the<br />
community to let the city council<br />
know how much the event means<br />
for New Brighton.<br />
He submitted an application to<br />
city council on Friday to secure a<br />
date for next year’s event.<br />
More than $5000 was raised<br />
from this year’s event to go back<br />
into the community.<br />

BADLY DAMAGED ROADS<br />
The city council is currently<br />
preparing the next Long Term<br />

councillor David East said this is<br />
the best time to address the issue<br />
of roading. Cr East is asking for<br />
residents of east Christchurch to<br />
help him compile a list of the five<br />
worst roads in the area that need<br />
repairs. He will then collate the<br />
results and present a list to city<br />
council in order of priority.<br />

End the stigma around epilepsy<br />
<strong>November</strong><br />
is Epilepsy<br />
Awareness<br />
Month,<br />
Coastal-<br />
Burwood<br />
Ward city<br />
councillor<br />
Glenn Livingstone speaks<br />
about his experience with<br />
the condition<br />
I was first diagnosed with<br />
epilepsy at 19.<br />
I’m now 54 and have not let the<br />
condition hold me back, in fact<br />
I’ve used it as a springboard to set<br />
goals and achieve them.<br />
Leading up to the diagnosis,<br />
I could not work out why I was<br />
having uncontrollable twitches<br />
when falling asleep.<br />
At a 1983 Youth Easter Camp<br />
I had a seizure, where I blacked<br />
out and was taken to hospital<br />
with concussion and a suspected<br />
broken nose.<br />
My worried parents waited<br />
while an electroencephalogram<br />
revealed the spikes of the ‘extra’<br />
electricity in my brain.<br />
Following this, I was diagnosed<br />
with myoclonic epilepsy. I was<br />
put on medication, which I’ve remained<br />
on since, in order to keep<br />
the epilepsy under control.<br />
One of the consequences of this<br />
newly-acquired condition was<br />
not being able to drive for two<br />
years.<br />
It also meant cycling with a<br />
helmet. Cycling wearing a yellow<br />
helmet in Palmerston North in<br />
1983 was a novel experience for<br />
everyone, both me and the locals.<br />
“Hey skid-lid”, or “moon-head”<br />
were all part of the experience of<br />
passing motorists in Palmy.<br />
Shortly after I was diagnosed<br />
and told someone about it, they<br />
said: “Oh, you’re an epileptic.”<br />
It was that labelling that was to<br />
become the impetus for me to set<br />
goals and pursue them.<br />
In February, I will be taking<br />
part in my seventh Coast to<br />
Coast event with MP Poto Williams.<br />
If you see someone having a<br />
seizure and lying on the ground,<br />
ensure that they do not come<br />
into contact with any furniture<br />
if inside and that they can’t hurt<br />
themselves.<br />
Once the seizure is finished,<br />
depending on the severity of it,<br />
check that they’re able to breathe<br />
without any obstructions in their<br />
mouth.<br />
They will probably be able<br />
to talk to you but may be a bit<br />
groggy. In some cases they may<br />
need medical attention but every<br />
person and every case is different.<br />
Those of us with epilepsy, our<br />
family and friends, want to be<br />
accepted. We should all work to<br />
put an end to the stigma around<br />
it.<br />
Those of us with epilepsy have<br />
extra electricity in our brains!<br />
So employ us, be cool with us<br />
and above all, give us a chance.<br />
Readers respond to an<br />
article about city council<br />
not turning off the Wi-Fi<br />

minimise loitering and antisocial<br />
behaviour<br />
David Neal – Play audible<br />
children’s books where they<br />
congregate. The kids will love it,<br />
the restaurant customers will be<br />
okay with it and I bet loiterers<br />
won’t be.<br />
Sara Spencer – Our library<br />
had a problem with teenagers<br />
loitering and smoking weed out<br />
the front. They just started playing<br />
classical music quite loudly<br />
out the front and they’re all gone<br />
now. That simple.<br />
Cathryn Lucy – If you<br />
think Wi-Fi and audio will<br />
stop things, you really need to<br />
rethink and realise it’s <strong>2017</strong>.<br />
Everyone has their own data and<br />
headphones to listen to whatever<br />
they want, and if noise is so loud<br />
that it’s annoying, it will annoy<br />
all patrons too.<br />
Renate En Rolie Geleyns<br />
– Disappointing the council<br />
can’t be more helpful to solve<br />
this issue . . . it’s never that hard<br />

Surf lifesaving trailer thefts<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
Scotty<br />
Roberts<br />
SPECIALISED SURF lifesaving<br />
trailers have been stolen from a<br />
storage shed in New Brighton.<br />
The thefts have angered Surf<br />
Life Saving New Zealand, which<br />
says it won’t be able to replace<br />
them for the summer.<br />
Said SLSNZ sports manager<br />
Scotty Roberts:<br />
“For the last 15<br />
years, we’ve never<br />
had any problems,<br />
but in the last two<br />
weeks, we’ve been<br />
hit by two breakins<br />
and case of<br />
vandalism.”<br />
“All the stuff that<br />
we have in there<br />
we have to fund for, so even as a<br />
national body, we still fund for<br />
gear and, yes, it’s all insured<br />
. . . it’s just more the<br />
inconvenience and the fact<br />
that they are stealing from a<br />
voluntary organisation whose job<br />
is to help and save people,” said<br />
Mr Roberts.<br />
Two SLSNZ trailers were stolen<br />
from the Owles Tce compound<br />
on October 29.<br />
Following this, security was<br />
increased and new locks were<br />
added.<br />
Then, on <strong>November</strong> 6, another<br />
break-in occurred, this time the<br />
GONE: Surf club members with specialised trailers that have<br />
been stolen from a storage shed in New Brighton.<br />
thieves bypassed the locks and<br />
took the gate off by its hinges.<br />
An IRB trailer belonging to<br />
North Beach Surf Club was<br />
taken, along with a canoe<br />
trailer owned by the South New<br />
Brighton Surf Club.<br />
The thieves attempted to steal<br />
a third trailer which had a wheel<br />
lock, so they let the tyres down.<br />
Paddles and a laptop were also<br />
taken from a Waka Ama storage<br />
facility next door on the same<br />
night.<br />
Police are asking for anyone<br />
who may know anything about<br />
the thefts or the whereabouts of<br />
the trailers to come forward.<br />
THE SOUTHSHORE Residents<br />
Association is looking for<br />
funding for an automated<br />
external defibrillator.<br />
Currently in the Southshore<br />
and South New Brighton<br />
communities, there is only<br />
one AED available at South<br />
New Brighton School which<br />
can be used during school<br />
hours.<br />
The residents’ association has<br />
identified the need for another<br />
one which is available 24 hours<br />
a day, seven days a week.<br />
The next closest option for an<br />
AED is in New Brighton, where<br />
there are six.<br />

Hawke book.<br />
NZ Surf: The Collection – Vol<br />
1 takes an in-depth look at surfing<br />
in New Zealand and New<br />
Brighton is a common feature.<br />
The coffee table book containing<br />
more than 500 photos and<br />
60,000 words features surfing<br />
events, including The Ray White<br />
New Brighton Duke Festival of<br />
Surfing.<br />
The festival has quickly grown<br />
to become the biggest surfing<br />
competition in New Zealand,<br />
said Mr Hawke.<br />
There is a section dedicated to<br />
New Brighton Boardriders life<br />
member Iain Buchanan, a five<br />
time New Zealand Open Champion<br />
who is currently travelling<br />
the world as a head judge on the<br />
European and Hawaiian legs of<br />
the World Qualifying Series and<br />
as the ‘Priority Judge’ on The<br />
World Championship Tour.<br />
The section provides insight<br />
into what it takes to compete at<br />
this level.<br />
The pier features several times<br />
including a photographic piece<br />
entitled Moods of The Pier which<br />
features shots of several local<br />
New Brighton surfers on big<br />
waves breaking along both sides<br />
of the pier.<br />
Mr Hawke considers the pier<br />
to be an excellent platform to<br />
shoot off.<br />
“In the right conditions<br />
the surf can look world class.<br />
Capturing the best action with<br />
interesting light is always a goal<br />
and sometimes it all comes together<br />
if you are persistent,” said<br />
Mr Hawke.<br />
Surfer Keiry Bennett, labelled<br />
by Mr Hawke as a ‘local celebrity,’<br />
also features.<br />
Mr Bennett first surfed New<br />
Brighton beach on hollow plywood<br />
boards in the late 1950s<br />
and is now the owner of Exit Surf<br />
in Ferrymead.<br />
It is Mr Warren’s second<br />
surfing book, published by CPL<br />
Media in Auckland, which<br />
specialises in beach and surfing<br />
publications.<br />
The book has a limited print<br />
run with the plan to sell it out<br />
and do no reprint.<br />
Copies of the book are available<br />
from local surf and clothing<br />
shops as well as good book shops.<br />
CELEBRITY: A new Warren<br />
Hawke book features many<br />
local surfers.<br />
CURL: Warren Hawke said in his new surfing book, NZ Surf:<br />
The Collection – Vol 1 that the New Brighton pier offers a great<br />
platform for surfers to shoot off. Local surfers including Southshore’s<br />
Dylan Wood feature.<br />
BREAKERS: New Brighton’s Will Newman is one of many local<br />
surfers to feature in the book.<br />
Computer science through the generations<br />
•From page 1<br />
The programme, which is<br />
used around the world, focuses<br />
on binary numbers, algorithms<br />
and data compression and has<br />
been translated into 25 different<br />
languages.<br />
A visit to his son’s year 1 class to<br />
talk about his profession sparked<br />
the idea.<br />
“I was aware from my son<br />
about the people before me, in<br />
particular a cop, who came<br />
along with his car and a<br />
nurse who brought fake<br />
blood, so as a computer<br />
scientist the challenge was<br />
getting kids to actually be<br />
interested in computer science.<br />
“But then it went down really<br />
well and I kept being invited back<br />
for more sessions,” said Prof<br />
Bell (left).<br />
The challenge was to<br />
find an engaging and<br />
interesting way to teach<br />
computer science,<br />
something Prof Bell was<br />
determined to achieve.<br />
“Someone might say, well,<br />
obviously, you can’t teach computer<br />
science to five-year-olds<br />
and so I thought well okay,<br />
lets see if we can . . . it’s<br />
definitely about rising to that<br />
challenge.”<br />
Shirley Primary School,<br />
Banks Avenue School and<br />
Chisnallwood Intermediate<br />
School were some of the first to<br />
trial the system.<br />
“The local Christchurch schools<br />
have been a very big part of<br />
what has become a well-known<br />
international programme …<br />
being Kiwi schools, I feel they<br />
are more open to new ideas and<br />
making stuff happen,” said Prof<br />
Bell.<br />

Avonside actress takes award in<br />
her film about broken friendship<br />
• By Sophie Cornish<br />
AN AVONSIDE Girls’ High<br />
student won best actress in a film<br />
she created about her experience<br />
with losing a friend.<br />
Zoe Rhoades and classmate,<br />
Charlotte Stringer, produced a<br />
short film, Comfort Food, which<br />
was screened at The School<br />
Shorts: Screen Competition <strong>2017</strong>.<br />
The film follows the main character<br />
Hazel (Zoe) through her<br />
journey of grief and self discovery<br />
after her close friend said she<br />
wanted to end the friendship.<br />
The film competition was run<br />
for the first time this year and<br />
organised by secondary school<br />
media teachers and the New Zealand<br />
Broadcasting School.<br />
The year 12 students believe the<br />
issue is not often touched on in<br />
mainstream films.<br />
“I think, typically, romantic<br />
break-ups are generally portrayed<br />
in films, but it’s not as common<br />
to see friendship break-ups,” said<br />
Zoe.<br />
“These break-ups are generally<br />
under-valued in society, yet it can<br />
affect all parts of your life, just<br />
the same way romantic relationships<br />
do.”<br />
Zoe was shocked to receive<br />
the prize for her first acting<br />
performance, which was “pretty<br />
unexpected”.<br />
The films in the compeititon<br />
were required to be no longer<br />
than 7min and the finalists’ films<br />
were screened at Hoyts Riccarton.<br />
Zoe received a $100 cash prize.<br />
Avonside Girls’ High School<br />
media studies teacher Rob Lay<br />
was involved in organising the<br />
competition and hopes it will<br />
start an annual Canterbury-wide<br />
film festival for secondary school<br />
students.<br />
A similar film festival called<br />
Invision ran from 2004-2010<br />
before being disrupted by the<br />
earthquakes.<br />
Zoe also won the overall prize<br />
for the top student in media studies<br />
for year 12 at Avonside.<br />
The best film award went to a<br />
St Andrew’s College film titled<br />
Beginners.<br />

RAWHITI SCHOOL pupils have<br />
raised more than $4500 for chairs<br />
for Christchurch Hospital.<br />
The pupils, aged 5 and 6 raised<br />
the money for three Devon<br />
recliner chairs for the children’s<br />
ward.<br />
Deputy principal Helen Hogarth<br />
said the initiative was part<br />
of the social science curriculum<br />
which focused on “playing our<br />
part to make the community a<br />
better place.”<br />
The pupils held a mufti-day,<br />
spellathon and a market day to<br />
raise funds.<br />
Some even raised money in<br />
their own time.<br />
“Some of the pupils were having<br />
lemonade stalls outside their<br />
house and making things and<br />
selling them to people who were<br />
passing by. Of course, as soon as<br />

children’s ward.<br />
Pupils get chairs for hospital<br />
people found out what they were<br />
doing, they were giving them $20<br />
for a cup of lemonade,” said Mrs<br />
Hogarth.<br />
Originally the 105 students<br />
were raising money for just one<br />
chair.<br />
“In the end we raised enough<br />
for three chairs and we were<br />
totally blown away,” said Mrs<br />
Hogarth.<br />
Mrs Hogarth said the enthusiasm<br />
from the students was what<br />
made the fundraising go further.<br />
“They loved it. They were so<br />
engaged in what they were doing.<br />
They were coming to school early<br />
wanting to work on their market<br />
day arts and crafts. They were<br />
working on it through their break<br />
times. They were so enthusiastic<br />
about it.”<br />
The chairs cost $1500 plus GST<br />
and will be used by families staying<br />
in the children’s ward.<br />

FOCUS ON HEALTH<br />
Dilo Oil – The Remarkable<br />
Skin Rejuvenator<br />
Until Rachel<br />
Hunter’s popular<br />
TV series “TOUR<br />
OF BEAUTY” Dilo<br />
Oil was relatively<br />
unknown, being one<br />
of the best-kept secrets<br />
of the Pacific Islands. It<br />
may however be the number<br />
one natural beauty oil available<br />
as it possesses powerful natural skin<br />
regeneration and healing properties.<br />
According to ethnobotanist Chris<br />
Kilham, Dilo (pronounced dee-lo)<br />
Oil is a powerful skin regenerator as<br />
it is one of the most effective agents<br />
in promoting the regeneration and<br />
formation of new tissue, thereby<br />
accelerating wound healing and<br />
the growth of healthy skin. Dilo<br />
Oil is super-absorbing and can<br />
penetrate all three layers of the<br />
skin, offering exceptional cell<br />
hydration and regeneration.<br />
As well as this, Dilo Oil has<br />
potent anti-inflammatory,<br />
antimicrobial, antifungal and<br />
antioxidant properties.<br />
Traditionally, Dilo Oil is used to keep the<br />
skin young and youthful and for just about<br />
any skin complaint. Some of the conditions<br />
for which it is considered helpful include<br />
abrasions, cuts and cracks, acne and<br />
acne scars, pimples, blemishes, stretch<br />
marks, wrinkles, blisters, burns (including<br />
chemical and radiation), diabetic sores,<br />
rashes, shaving irritation, dry or scaly skin,<br />
ACV SUPPORTS<br />
• Healthy digestion, assimilation of nutrients, elimination of wastes<br />
• Energy – Vitality – Endurance<br />
• Elimination of viruses, bacteria, fungus & parasites<br />
• Powerful antioxidant<br />
• Cardiovascular health, blood flow & healthy blood pressure<br />
• Diabetes – improves insulin sensitivity<br />
• Arthritis & joint support • Longevity & improved health<br />
• Settles the stomach & reduces reflux<br />
• Weight Loss<br />
eczema, psoriasis,<br />
dermatitis, herpes<br />
sores (cold-sores),<br />
insect bites and<br />

pain, sciatica,<br />
shingles, sunburn,<br />
rosacea, athlete’s foot, skin<br />
eruptions, warts, skin ulcers<br />
and sores, nappy rash and almost<br />
any other skin ailment and often with<br />
incredible results.<br />
Many beauty and skincare products<br />
on the market today contain unnatural<br />
ingredients that can be toxic and may<br />
even contribute to disease. Generally<br />
the benefits are exaggerated<br />
and often only temporary or<br />
camouflage. Marshall’s Dilo Oil is<br />
100% pure and certified organic.<br />
It has been cold-pressed from the<br />
Dilo nut and contains absolutely<br />
no additives. Polynesians and<br />
Southeast Asians have revered<br />
Dilo Oil for centuries believing it<br />
to be a sacred gift of nature and<br />
the Gods. Dilo oil stimulates<br />
and supports the skins natural<br />
healing process through the growth of new<br />
healthy skin tissue. I personally believe<br />
it is a remarkable product and highly<br />
recommend it to everyone. A 50ml bottle is<br />
$19.90 and 100ml only $29.90.<br />
Further information is available from<br />
the Natural Health Advisers at Marshall’s<br />

NATURAL HEALING & BEAUTY OIL<br />
As seen on Rachel Hunter’s Tour of Beauty<br />
Revered for centuries by Polynesians & Southeast Asians for its remarkable<br />
skin anti-aging & healing properties, Dilo oil comes from the nut of the sacred<br />
Dilo tree, “the tree of a thousand virtues”. Dilo oil is often called the beauty oil<br />
as it can penetrate all three layers of the skin offering exceptional cell hydration<br />
& regeneration. It has a unique ability to stimulate the growth of healthy skin<br />
cells & this gives it powerful anti-aging & healing properties that can help<br />
reduce lines, blemishes, scars & damage to the skin. It also possesses<br />
anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal & antioxidant properties.<br />
Dilo Oil Supports<br />
• Anti-aging & skin regeneration, helps reduce lines, blemishes, scars &<br />
stretch marks<br />
• Skin hydration<br />
• Skin repair & growth, helps feed the skin & stimulate healthy new cells<br />
• Wound healing & skin protection from bacteria, viruses & fungus<br />
• Most skin problems, rosacea, pimples, ulcers & sores, acne, psoriasis,<br />
eczema, dermatitis, rashes, blisters, skin eruptions, warts, insect bites &<br />
stings, athlete’s foot, burns, nappy rash etc.<br />
• Joint & muscular pain<br />

Centuries old folk remedy<br />
supports good health!<br />
A fermented liquid health tonic offers an<br />
array of powerful health benefits. It is none<br />
other than the popular apple cider vinegar<br />
or ACV. Since the time of Hippocrates –<br />
the “Father of Medicine” – ACV has been<br />
renowned for its curative properties.<br />
In his popular book “ARTHRITIS and<br />
FOLK MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis<br />
reports how he found that Vermonters<br />
who regularly consumed ACV and Honey<br />
had excellent health with many putting in<br />
a vigorous day’s work on the farm even<br />
when well into their eighties.<br />
He also noted the effects of<br />
ACV and H on arthritis to be<br />
remarkable with many patients<br />
reporting almost total relief<br />
after taking a course of the<br />
mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised<br />
that the acid and potassium<br />
in cider vinegar counteracted<br />
calcium deposits and helped<br />
the body control calcium use.<br />
He also noted that Vermonters<br />
who consumed ACV and H<br />
around meal time had excellent blood<br />
pressure and circulation. The reason he<br />
found was that protein foods thickened the<br />
blood and vinegar thinned it. As the blood<br />
thickens it cannot pass as easily and quickly<br />
through the blood vessels and capillaries.<br />
This poor blood flow would reduce cellular<br />
health by limiting nutrients to the cells as<br />
well as waste elimination from the cells.<br />
To prevent cell damage the body naturally<br />
increases blood pressure but this puts<br />
more stress on the blood vessels, organs<br />

and heart. Having ACV and H with meals<br />
will help prevent protein raising the blood<br />
pressure. It also contributes to a feeling<br />
of greater well-being because the thinner<br />
blood circulates quickly and more easily<br />
through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found<br />
regular consumption of CV and H to be<br />
an excellent health tonic with numerous<br />
health attributes.<br />
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all<br />
the goodness of the apple in a form that is<br />
readily accepted by the body. Good health<br />
starts with good digestion<br />
and assimilation of nutrients.<br />
ACV taken before food will<br />
stimulate and promote healthy<br />
digestion and assimilation of<br />
vital nutrients for good health.<br />
A well-functioning digestive<br />
system helps prevent disease<br />
by neutralising any toxic<br />
substances that enter the body.<br />
It is important to note not<br />
all ACV is produced in the<br />
traditional way and results are<br />
likely to prove disappointing with these<br />
other vinegars.<br />
Marshall’s Premium ACV and ACV<br />
with 20% Manuka Honey is produced in<br />
Canterbury from Organic whole apples in<br />
the traditional way. It is double strength so<br />
you can use less.<br />

Hours of care in<br />
your cupboards<br />
While the Nurse Maude Hospice Shops are<br />
a well-known feature on the Christchurch<br />
retail scene, no quite so well-known is its<br />
equally successful counterpart, Maudes on<br />
Trade Me.<br />
Maudes on Trade Me sells everything<br />
from antiques to sporting and household<br />
items and is open 24 hours a day, seven<br />
days a week with the proceeds of every<br />
item supporting hours of care in the Nurse<br />
Maude Hospice.<br />
With up to 400 items a week being listed<br />
and sold Maudes on Trade Me is totally<br />
dependent on a steady stream of donated<br />
goods.<br />
So if it’s something you no longer want or<br />
need the chances are it can raise money<br />
for the Nurse Maude Hospice.<br />
There has always been a strong<br />
relationship between the<br />
community and the Nurse<br />
Maude Hospice.<br />
That relationship is what makes<br />
it possible for patients and their<br />
families to be able to receive<br />
care and support free of charge<br />
at the Nurse Maude Hospice so<br />
they can focus on what matters<br />
rather than having to worry<br />
about how they’re going to pay<br />
for that care.<br />
While smaller pieces can be<br />
left for Maudes on Trade Me<br />
at any of the Nurse Maude Hospice Shops<br />
it is sometimes possible for larger or bulk<br />
items to be picked up.<br />
Just give them a call on 375 4643 or<br />
email them at trademe.volunteers@<br />
nursemaude.org.nz and they can let you<br />
know if and when they can pick them up.

HEALTH & BEAUTY<br />
PEGASUS POST<br />
Love your dentures<br />
Is it time to swap your generic denture appearance<br />
for a beautiful, natural looking smile?<br />
Internationally renowned dental<br />
technician Richard Greenlees,<br />
PGDipCDTech (University of Otago) of<br />
Lovebite is the person to call.<br />
His special point of difference is<br />
rebuilding what he calls the Oral<br />
Architecture, the structure and shape of<br />
a patient’s face that is often lost following<br />
years of wearing dentures.<br />
Lovebite dentures address problems<br />
that can arise due to years of the patient<br />
wearing incorrectly fitting or poorly<br />
functioning dentures, such as poor<br />
occlusion (the way the teeth come<br />
together), aesthetics, function and<br />
hygiene.<br />
An intricate knowledge and<br />
understanding of facial features allows<br />
Richard to return facial tissues back to the<br />
correct position, reform lips, and restore<br />
beauty and confidence.<br />
Richard provides a friendly, discreet<br />
service and personally guides his patients<br />
through the transformation process to<br />
create teeth with small nuances in the<br />
fabrication, colour and shape.<br />
Carmen, a recent patient said in a<br />
thank you letter to Richard, “I highly<br />
recommend your craftsmanship to anyone<br />
wanting a natural looking smile. Because<br />
you do your work in front of your client,<br />
one is able to see how meticulous and<br />
dedicated you are to ending up with a top<br />
class result. My dentures are amazing.<br />
They look like one’s own natural teeth. So<br />
much time, effort and energy went into<br />
the end result. Simply the best.”<br />
Richard’s patients have varying needs,<br />
from full denture replacement, to first<br />
time immediate dentures, implant<br />
supported dentures and metal partial<br />
dentures.<br />
Since he started making teeth in<br />
1980 Richard has travelled extensively,<br />
accumulating vast knowledge through<br />
training and working in Japan, and<br />
running his own practice in the<br />
prestigious Harley Street, London for 15<br />
years. He continues to teach his world<br />
leading techniques globally.<br />
Richard also creates porcelain crowns<br />
and veneers, working with like-minded<br />
dental professionals.<br />
A beautiful new Lovebite smile<br />
resembles nature and reflects the patient’s<br />
character. It boosts confidence and helps<br />
patients to look and feel years younger.<br />

AFTER<br />
These before and after photographs<br />
perfectly highlight the facial<br />
rejuvenation that can be achieved<br />
with a Lovebite denture (right).<br />
The patient’s facial structure and<br />
shape have been restored, with her<br />
beautiful new smile transforming<br />
the way she looks and feels.<br />

These stunning lovebite full upper and<br />
lower dentures have been expertly crafted by<br />
internationally-recognised dental technician<br />
Richard Greenlees at his Christchurch studio.<br />
The combination of Richard’s skill, experience<br />
(including 15 years in London’s prestigious<br />
Harley Street) knowledge and revolutionary<br />
techniques allow him to create beautiful<br />
bespoke false teeth that truly resemble those<br />
in nature and reflect each patient’s individuality<br />
and unique character.<br />

GREAT food<br />
BROUGHT TO YOU BY...<br />
Your fresh food people<br />
STRAWBERRY AND<br />
MARSHMALLOW PARFAIT<br />
Ingredients<br />
½ cup Marshmallows, small<br />
350g Sugar<br />
500g Strawberries, hulled<br />
6 Eggs, 4 yolks, 2 whole<br />
2 cups Cream, thick<br />
500g Strawberries, fresh, for<br />
garnish<br />
Directions<br />
To prepare the tin, line a narrow<br />
terrine mould about 30cm<br />
x 10cm with plastic wrap. Set<br />
some of the marshmallows along<br />
the bottom with some strawberry<br />
slices.<br />
Place the strawberries in a<br />
saucepan with half the sugar.<br />
Bring to a gentle simmer over a<br />
low heat. The juices will come<br />
out, so there is no need to add<br />
water. Simmer for no more<br />
than 2min, then remove from<br />
the heat and mash or purée the<br />
mixture.<br />
Return it to the pan and set<br />
aside. Use an electric beater to<br />
whisk the egg yolks and whole<br />
eggs with the remaining sugar<br />
until thick and mousse-like.<br />
Return the strawberry and sugar<br />
mixture to the heat and bring to<br />
a simmer. With the beater still<br />
running, tip this hot mixture<br />
into the eggs and continue<br />
whisking until it is really thick<br />
and well incorporated. The hot<br />
sugar and strawberries “cook”<br />
the egg yolk, so it is not raw.<br />
Whip the cream until it reaches<br />
soft peaks, then fold it gently<br />
through. Add the remaining<br />
marshmallows to the mixture.<br />
Spoon it into the prepared tin.<br />
Cover with plastic wrap and<br />
freeze for at least 24 hours. To<br />
serve, cut the parfait into slices,<br />
surround with sliced strawberries<br />
and place in a cup.<br />
HOW TO ROAST THE<br />
PERFECT WHOLE LEG OF<br />
LAMB<br />
Whole leg of lamb<br />
1-2 tbsp oil<br />
Rock salt<br />
Freshly ground black pepper<br />
4-5 sprigs fresh rosemary<br />
Take the lamb out of the fridge<br />
30min before cooking to allow<br />
it to come to room temperature.<br />
Preheat the oven to 170 deg C.<br />
Place a wire rack in a roasting<br />
tray, place the lamb on the rack<br />
and brush the meat with the oil<br />
and then season with the rock<br />
salt and freshly ground black<br />
pepper.<br />
Rub the lamb with the rosemary<br />
sprigs leaving them in the<br />
roasting dish. Place the meat into<br />
the oven and roast at 160 deg C,<br />
allowing 30min per 500g.<br />
To test if the meat is cooked,<br />
use a skewer to pierce the leg at<br />
the thickest part, going through<br />
to the bone. If the juices are clear,<br />
the lamb is cooked.<br />
Remove the lamb from the<br />
oven, cover the meat with some<br />
aluminum foil and then set the<br />
lamb aside to rest, for approximately<br />
15-20min. Carve the meat<br />
and serve with your favourite<br />
vegetables and plenty of gravy.<br />

culmination of a year's worth of efforts from<br />
StarJam’s young people.<br />

mash-ups,” said Jo, Casey, coordinator. “A<br />
