JASMINE TULI is one step way from<br />
being recognised as one of rugby league’s<br />
top volunteers.<br />
The Linwood Keas stalwart (see page 1) is<br />
a finalist in the female volunteer of the year<br />
category at the New Zealand Rugby League awards in Auckland<br />
on Saturday night.<br />
She is the premier squad manager, is a director of the club and<br />
has a lot to do with the junior teams.<br />
Her husband Marsden, aka the ‘Godfather’, tragically died on<br />
the training field during 2015, one game short of his 300th for<br />
the Keas. It was going to be his last premier grade match.<br />
Says Jasmine: “We are a league family and that is all we do. It<br />
is in my blood.”<br />
All the best for Friday.<br />

Coastal pathway consent lodged<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
CONSTRUCTION on the next<br />
stage of the coastal pathway<br />
is likely to start in April, once<br />
the city council gets resource<br />
consent approval from<br />
Environment Canterbury.<br />
The 760m section from Shag<br />
Rock to the Sumner Surf Life<br />
Saving Club is jointly funded by<br />
the city council and the Coastal<br />
Pathway Group.<br />
It is expected to take 12<br />
months to build.<br />
The 4m-wide pathway will<br />
be a mix of asphalt and timber<br />
boardwalk with native coastal<br />
planting. It will mostly be at<br />
the same level as Main Rd and<br />
extend towards the seaward side<br />
of the road.<br />
Rip rap – loose stone providing<br />
a protective breakwater –<br />
will extend along the beach front<br />
below Peacocks Gallop, with<br />
two separate beach access steps<br />
opposite Deans Head and one<br />
opposite Shag Rock Reserve.<br />
City council manager<br />
planning and delivery transport,<br />
Lynette Ellis said the start<br />
date and construction period<br />
would be conditional on any<br />
“additional requirements”<br />
identified during the consenting<br />
process.<br />
An ECan spokeswoman said a<br />
PATHWAY: A computer-generated image of the coastal pathway boardwalk through dunes<br />
beside the Clifton Hill car park. <br />
decision on whether to publicly<br />
notify the consent was expected<br />
towards the end of next week.<br />
The consent was lodged with<br />
THE JEwEllEry<br />
ValuaTion SpEcialiSTS<br />

ECan on December 15 last year.<br />
When fully complete, the<br />

running from Ferrymead<br />
bridge, along the coastal edge<br />
to Scarborough beach. It will<br />
connect with the city cycle<br />

Abusive teens ‘out of control’ at yacht club<br />
• By Sarla Donovan<br />
THE Christchurch Yacht Club<br />
was recently overrun by more<br />
than 100 teenagers, prompting<br />
an emergency meeting.<br />
Club commodore Richard<br />
Ineson said some of the<br />
committee met last week after<br />
crowds of young people using<br />
the club’s pontoon ignored<br />
requests to move out of the<br />
way.<br />
Mr Ineson said the<br />
situation had been “out of<br />
control.”<br />
“We couldn’t even drive our<br />
IRBs with outboards up to the<br />
pontoon there were so many people<br />
in the water and they wouldn’t<br />
get out.”<br />
No matter what he said, the<br />
young people simply “gave . . .<br />
the middle finger” and ignored<br />
him, Mr Ineson said. “They were<br />
really abusive.”<br />
The club’s pontoon in Moncks<br />
Bay has been used by the public<br />
for the past 25 years without any<br />
problems, but hot weather and<br />
school holidays have made it a<br />
popular spot with teenagers this<br />
summer.<br />
Mr Ineson said he was reluctant<br />
to call police because<br />
everyone in the area would have<br />
to have been moved, including<br />
families.<br />
“It was very stressful.”<br />
The club had never had problems<br />
before, said Mr Ineson, but<br />
the influx this summer had been<br />
creating issues.<br />
An external tap on the clubhouse<br />
was vandalised last week<br />
and litter is regularly left strewn<br />
around.<br />
The club has members-only<br />
rights over the area, from the<br />
car park to the slipway but it has<br />
always left it open for the public<br />
to use.<br />
“We want the community to<br />
use it and respect it,” said<br />
former club commodore Jo<br />
Hooker.<br />
She said people needed to be<br />
responsible.<br />
The following day Mr Ineson<br />
closed the area between 9am-<br />
3.30pm for a regatta but said he<br />
had had to police it. “If I wasn’t<br />
there, they would have climbed<br />
the rope and ignored the sign.”<br />
The club has asked the City to<br />
Sumner Community Patrol to<br />
visit because people were staying<br />
well into the evening.<br />
It is also looking at putting<br />
more signage up in the area.<br />
“The only consolation is school<br />
holidays are ending soon so we<br />
hope it won’t be anywhere near<br />
as bad,” said Mr Ineson.<br />

RETURNED: John<br />
Edmonds asked the<br />
city council to put the<br />
‘s’ back into Linwood’s<br />
Edmond St, which was<br />
originally named after<br />
his great-grandfather.<br />

THE ‘S’ will be returned to<br />
a street named after the man<br />
behind a Kiwi kitchen icon<br />
more than a century after it was<br />
mysteriously removed.<br />
Linwood’s Edmond St will be<br />
corrected to Edmonds St after<br />
Christchurch businessman and<br />
philanthropist Thomas John<br />
Edmonds.<br />
He founded Edmonds Sure to<br />
Rise baking powder.<br />
The Linwood-Central-<br />
Heathcote Community Board<br />
approved the change last week.<br />
The street was named after T J<br />
Edmonds in 1878. But somehow<br />
after 1893, it was altered and the<br />
‘s’ was removed for no apparent<br />
reason.<br />
T J Edmonds’ great grandson,<br />
John Edmonds, asked the city<br />
council if the spelling could be<br />
corrected last year.<br />
To do so, the city council<br />
had to consult with the street’s<br />
residents.<br />
One responded saying while<br />
they did not have an issue with<br />
the renaming, they were concerned<br />
it could cause confusion<br />
with mail delivery<br />
and they would<br />
need to change<br />
their address with<br />
organisations such<br />
as the Inland Revenue<br />
Department.<br />
However, city<br />
council staff said<br />
there were no<br />
other streets in<br />
the city with a<br />
similar name, so<br />
there would be no<br />
confusion with mail<br />
delivery.<br />
Staff said while inconvenient,<br />
changing addresses with those<br />
organisations was easier now<br />
because it could be done online.<br />
John Edmonds said he was<br />
“very happy” to hear his greatgrandfather’s<br />
legacy was being<br />
restored.<br />
“It’s a courtesy that’s well warranted<br />
. . . and I’m sure he would<br />
appreciate it as well. He was very<br />
conscious of the future,” he said.<br />
It would cost $500 to install a<br />

T J Edmonds had<br />
the gardens created<br />
around his factory,<br />
which was built in<br />

Couple’s love for penguins<br />
Woolston<br />
street may<br />
be made<br />
one-way<br />
• By Julia Evans<br />
A SECTION of Woolston’s<br />
Cumnor Tce may become<br />
one-way.<br />
The city council is seeking<br />
feedback on part of the Heathcote<br />
Expressway cycleyway on<br />
Cumnor Tce between Garlands<br />
Rd and Marshall St.<br />
At a meeting last year, the city<br />
council infrastructure transport<br />
and environment committee<br />
agreed that an option for<br />
increasing the width of the<br />
cycleway on Cumnor Tce should<br />
be explored, including the option<br />
to convert it to a one-way<br />
street.<br />
As detailed design investigations<br />
progressed, concerns were<br />
raised by staff about the potential<br />
impact on ecological values<br />
along this section of the route, a<br />
city council report said.<br />
Cumnor Tce, between<br />
Maunsell St and Garlands Rd,<br />
is already one-way and north<br />
of Marshall St would remain<br />
two-way.<br />
The public can give feedback<br />
on the proposal via the city<br />
council’s website.<br />
“ALL YOU need is love, and a<br />
penguin,” said the sign on the<br />
front door.<br />
It’s the perfect slogan for the<br />
couple who live inside.<br />
Halswell’s Kristina Schutt and<br />
Thomas Stracke have been looking<br />
after underweight and injured<br />
penguins at their suburban<br />
home for the past eight years.<br />
Their organisation, Christchurch<br />
Penguin Rehabilitation, is<br />
licensed by the Department of<br />
Conservation.<br />
The German couple, who also<br />
work part-time as intensive care<br />
nurses at Christchurch Hospital,<br />
fell in love with penguins after<br />
seeing the birds at Oamaru when<br />
they visited New Zealand in the<br />
1990s.<br />
The current penguin breeding<br />
season, which runs from<br />
December-May, is their busiest<br />
yet with a peak of up to 14<br />
penguins in their care at one<br />
time.<br />
Their current charges are all<br />
white-flippered penguins, except<br />
one very precious yellow-eyed<br />
penguin chick that is covered in<br />
a downy, brown coat.<br />
It has been named Fluffy and<br />
was brought in underweight<br />
from Shell Bay, Banks Peninsula.<br />
The yellow-eyed chick is one<br />
of only three hatched on Banks<br />
Peninsula this season and the<br />
Artisan Homes<br />
Builders of superior homes.<br />
Built to last.<br />
only one known to have survived.<br />
Although Fluffy is still on<br />
medication for an infection, the<br />
chick is moving around and will<br />
hopefully be able to return to<br />
the wild after a couple of months<br />
with Christchurch Penguin<br />
Rehabilitation.<br />
“We’re doing everything possible<br />

said.<br />
Most of the birds are brought<br />
in by members of the public who<br />
come across them around the<br />
coast, or they are found by city<br />
council or DOC rangers.<br />
At first, the chicks are given<br />

to rehydrate them before they<br />

move on to a grey paste that<br />
Mr Stracke described as a “fish<br />
smoothie” for a few days. Then<br />
they are fed small salmon.<br />
Ms Schutt said warmer sea<br />
temperatures are making life<br />
difficult for penguin chicks this<br />
year. They find it harder to feed<br />
because the fish tend to stay in<br />
deeper waters where it is cooler<br />
making them harder for juveniles<br />
to catch.<br />
She and Mr Stracke are handfeeding<br />
two white-flippered<br />
penguins which couldn’t survive<br />
in the wild when they arrived.<br />
They are also looking after an<br />
adult white-flippered penguin<br />
with a deep seal bite on its back.<br />
It needed surgery at Hornby<br />
Veterinary Centre.<br />
City council ranger project<br />
manager Andrew Crossland said<br />
the city is lucky to have such<br />
skilled and dedicated penguin<br />
rehabilitators.<br />
“They’re doing a great service<br />
by saving our local penguin species<br />
and returning the birds to<br />
the wild.”<br />
The penguins are given a name<br />
after 48 hours, Mr Stracke said.<br />
Often they name the bird after<br />
the person who brings it in, so<br />
one of their feathered patients is<br />
called Steve.<br />
When the birds have recovered,<br />
they are released as close<br />
as possible to the location where<br />
they were found.<br />
Mr Stracke said it’s satisfying<br />
to see rescued birds set free.<br />
“It’s a good feeling to have done<br />
something.”<br />
He said dog owners should<br />
keep their pets on a leash as loose<br />
dogs can be a threat to penguin<br />
chicks.<br />
•Any penguins found<br />
should be placed in a box<br />
and kept in a cool, quiet<br />
place before calling DOC,<br />

Fight to reopen Kennedys Bush track<br />
Halswell<br />
Community<br />
Project<br />
chairwoman<br />
Chrys Horn<br />
says a lack<br />
of action<br />
at the Kennedys Bush<br />
track is preventing it<br />
from being reopened<br />
KENNEDYS BUSH track is a<br />
paper road line that provides<br />
walking, running and biking<br />
access from Halswell to<br />
Summit Rd.<br />
It also provides access to an<br />
awesome network of tracks<br />
in Ōhinetahi Reserve above<br />
Governors Bay, as well as<br />
Kennedys Bush and east and<br />
west along the Port Hills. It has<br />
been well used for decades.<br />
Since the Port Hills fire, the<br />
track has been closed, with<br />
the city council citing health<br />
and safety concerns. There are<br />
burned trees that could fall over<br />
the track, and the city council<br />
can’t open it until they have<br />
been cleared. The issue is that<br />
there is little sign of them being<br />
cleared and now there are huge<br />
fences top and bottom of the<br />
track. Increasingly, it appears we<br />
may have a landowner who is<br />
trying to stop public access.<br />
Other affected Port Hills<br />
tracks, including Christchurch<br />
Adventure Park, reopened<br />
relatively quickly. Inquiries in<br />
October indicated that the track<br />
would reopen on December<br />
31. Now we are being told<br />
March 31, but this seems very<br />
uncertain.<br />
It would appear that if we<br />
simply accept these changes<br />
without comment, getting this<br />
track reopened could get a<br />
whole lot harder.<br />
I hope I am wrong, but<br />
communities across New<br />
Zealand have lost walking track<br />
access like this because they<br />
haven’t chosen to defend it. If<br />
very few people act, it makes it<br />
much easier for landowners to<br />
get away with obstructing the<br />
public.<br />
If you want to make sure our<br />
community gets back access<br />
to Kennedys Bush track, then<br />
contact the city council and/<br />
or your local councillor and let<br />
them know.<br />
Ask for detailed information<br />
and updates. Talk to others<br />
about this, and get them<br />
involved too. Join the Kennedys<br />
Bush track network to keep up<br />
with developments.<br />
Find us on Facebook or<br />
email kbtracknetwork@gmail.<br />
com for more information. It is<br />
more fun and more effective if<br />
we all work together to achieve<br />
this.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
Police dog pioneer passes away<br />
BOND: Harold Surgenor with his first dog Axel One and his<br />
son Carl in 1958.<br />
PHOTO: NZ POLICE<br />
• By Andrew King<br />
HAROLD THOMAS Surgenor,<br />
a pioneer of how police dogs are<br />
used now, has died aged 86.<br />
Mr Surgenor’s wife Ruth said<br />
he was one of the first officers in<br />
the country to push for the use of<br />
dogs in the police, highlighting<br />
their versatility and ability to<br />
perform many of the tasks police<br />
dogs are used for today.<br />
Mr Surgenor, who lived in<br />
Ryan St, Linwood, for many<br />
years, passed away suddenly in<br />
his Ilam home on January 16.<br />
Canterbury district<br />
commander Superintendent John<br />
Price said his legacy lives on in<br />
the important role police dogs<br />
play in today’s society.<br />
“We owe him a debt of thanks.<br />
He set up what we now have and<br />
we will forever be grateful to<br />
him,” he said.<br />
“Now we have dogs that do all<br />
manner of things like searching<br />
out drugs, money, bombs and a<br />
whole range of other uses.”<br />
A retired police sergeant, Mr<br />
Surgenor was one of the first<br />
officers to train a police dog in<br />
New Zealand after he picked up<br />
Axel One from Trentham, Upper<br />
Hutt, in October 1956.<br />
The pup was born on a boat<br />
coming from England and was<br />
selected by Mr Surgenor over one<br />
that was partially trained because<br />
he wanted a fresh dog to work<br />
with.<br />
Another of his colleagues,<br />
Colin Guppy,<br />
of Wellington,<br />
took the<br />
partially<br />
trained dog<br />
to become<br />
the first dog<br />
handler in the<br />
country.<br />
Mr Surgenor<br />
had three dogs<br />
during his<br />
career – Axel<br />
One, Axel<br />
Two and Axel<br />
Three.<br />
But he was<br />
almost denied<br />
his dream job<br />
of becoming a<br />
police officer<br />
when he was<br />
told he was too small to join.<br />
“He had to fill out as a young<br />
person and the police told him<br />
to do some manual work to get<br />
bigger. So he worked in a gold<br />
mine on the West Coast,” Mrs<br />
Surgenor said.<br />
The couple met shortly after<br />
Mr Surgenor had joined the<br />
police in Wellington. They were<br />
due to mark their 63rd wedding<br />
anniversary next month. He<br />
Harold Surgenor<br />
spent time in the King Country<br />
and Wanganui chasing prison<br />
escapees, and was sometimes<br />
away for weeks at a time, Mrs<br />
Surgenor<br />
said. They<br />
moved from<br />
Wanganui<br />
to Ryan St in<br />
1965.<br />
Mr Surgenor<br />
was head of<br />
the police dog<br />
unit which<br />
covered most<br />
of the South<br />
Island.<br />
His first<br />
dog, Axel One,<br />
was buried<br />
at the couple’s<br />
Ryan St<br />
property, Mrs<br />
Surgenor said.<br />
Mr Surgenor<br />
was farewelled<br />
at a service in the Westpark<br />
Chapel, Burnside, which was<br />
attended by about 200 people.<br />
“He was a dedicated and proud<br />
policeman,” Mrs Surgenor<br />
said.<br />
“I was very proud to be his<br />
wife and the letters and emails<br />
detailing how respected he<br />
was and admired in the police<br />
force have been incredible,” she<br />
said.<br />
Opawa cadet goes<br />
into the wild<br />
OPAWA’S Courtney Rae took<br />
part in the inaugural Exercise<br />
Takahe, a week-long adventure<br />
camp in Arthur’s Pass for the<br />
New Zealand Cadet Forces.<br />
NZCF is a youth training<br />
organisation which provides<br />
military-based leadership,<br />
personal development and<br />
adventure training to those aged<br />
13-18.<br />
During the recent exercise,<br />
the cadets went through Cave<br />
Stream, abseiled at Castle Hill<br />
and flew over a river on a flying<br />
fox.<br />
They also treated some<br />
injured patients after a mock<br />
‘boulder accident’, bonded<br />
with their teammates on a low<br />
rope course, floated down the<br />
Waimakariri River and rode<br />
in a Unimog. An unexpected<br />
storm with lightning, thunder,<br />
rain and hail provided a bit of<br />
excitement, but otherwise the<br />
weather was calm and hot.<br />

Women relish challenge<br />
Kathmandu<br />
Coast to Coast<br />
male domination<br />
changing<br />
HISTORICALLY THE Kathmandu Coast<br />
to Coast has been a male dominated race,<br />
but that is definitely changing.<br />
The event is full for the first time in a<br />
decade, with organisers and title sponsor<br />
Kathmandu challenging more females to<br />
take it on, a rallying call that is gaining<br />
some real momentum and having an impact<br />
on the event in a number of ways.<br />
Jess De Bont is a working mum who<br />
has competed in the event and now<br />
throws her energy into running a youth<br />
programme, training a new generation of<br />
multi-sport athletes.<br />
“It’s wonderful to see so many females<br />
stepping up and being involved in Coast<br />
to Coast whether it be in a team, tandem,<br />
support crew role or some other way of<br />
getting behind the event,” she said.<br />
Ms De Bont established the Coast to<br />
Coast Rangers, a programme for disadvantaged<br />
youth in Canterbury<br />
She is one of a growing number of<br />
women who are making their mark on<br />
the event in different ways.<br />
“Our programme is about making the<br />
event accessible to teenagers who would<br />
not have had the opportunity otherwise,”<br />
she said.<br />
“The Kathmandu Coast to Coast is accessible,<br />
achievable and fun, and there’s a<br />
real social element to training and getting<br />
into the outdoors. Kathmandu are all<br />
about making the outdoors accessible to<br />
everyone and the race is the same so it’s a<br />
great fit.”<br />
Ms De Bont says for her east Christchurch<br />
teenagers it has been about getting<br />
outside and exploring the wonderful<br />
backyard that Christchurch and Canterbury<br />
offers, just as much as it has been<br />
about training.<br />
“They have biked, run and kayaked over<br />
places they never knew existed. Exposing<br />
them to the great outdoors has been an<br />
absolute privilege. They embrace each<br />
week in the Port Hills with enthusiasm<br />
and gratitude,” said Ms De Bont.<br />
This is the third year the Coast to Coast<br />
Rangers have competed in the event with<br />
16-year-old Emmy Slott, competing in the<br />
kayak leg.<br />
Emmy has two fellow Linwood College<br />
team mates competing with her in a twoday,<br />
three person team, with the other<br />
two doing the cycling and running legs,<br />
making the challenge of completing the<br />
243km journey across the South Island<br />
very do-able.<br />
“They will be supported by their friend,<br />
Aleisha, who is keen to see the event from<br />
a support crew role and then compete in<br />
years to come,” said Ms De Bont.<br />
“Emmy has been training hard these<br />
past few months, getting up at 6am for<br />
kayak training more than once a week has<br />
been a challenge in itself.<br />
“For me, it is all about giving these east<br />
Christchurch teenagers opportunities<br />
they perhaps wouldn’t normally have and<br />
taking them to places they haven’t been,<br />
encouraging them to step outside their<br />
comfort zones, which they do on a regular<br />
basis. Some people don’t step outside<br />
their comfort zones all year. Our<br />
teenagers do it each week when I ask<br />
them to participate in various activities,<br />
TRAINING: Jess De Bont with Finn<br />
Pierce who is a part of her<br />
Coast to Coast Rangers group for<br />
youths in Canterbury.<br />
challenges and races. It is inspiring to see.<br />
As a working mum and an athlete myself,<br />
I know all that the multi-tasking busy<br />
mums have to do. Trying to fit in kids<br />
activities, nutritional cooking, training<br />
and working is a juggling act in itself,<br />
but it is a very special thing to be able to<br />
compete and have your children waiting<br />
and cheering so proudly as their mum<br />
crosses the finish line, smiles all round,”<br />
said Ms De Bont.<br />
Kathmandu Coast to Coast full<br />
– women’s race shaping up for<br />
titanic battle<br />
More women competing is highlighted<br />
even further with the women’s World<br />
Championship Longest Day event shaping<br />
up as one to watch this year.<br />
The late entry of two-time champion<br />
and three-time adventure racing world<br />
champion, Sophie Hart, has added some<br />
real spice to an already deep field for the<br />
women’s one-day race. The 34-year-old<br />
Lyttelton GP is a two-time winner of the<br />
women’s one-day event with her last win<br />
coming in 2013. Her first win in 2011 in a<br />
time of 12hr 10min was only 1min<br />
outside the women’s individual record<br />
set by Christchurch’s Andrea Murray in<br />
1997.<br />
The women’s field is the strongest in<br />
years, led by defending champion and<br />
four-time winner Elina Ussher; last year’s<br />
runner-up, South African Robyn Owen,<br />
who was leading the race into the final<br />
bike leg before being overhauled by Ussher;<br />
Christchurch-based German Simone<br />
Maier, who last raced in the event in 2015<br />
when she was second; and Whakatane’s<br />
Corrine O’Donnell, a strong runner who<br />
always makes her presence felt.<br />
Former world champion kayaker and<br />
Olympian Teneal Hatton is another one<br />
to watch in the women’s one-day event.<br />
Hatton was third in November’s ICF<br />
ocean ski world champs in Hong Kong,<br />
racing as the event’s defending world<br />
champion.<br />
Leading Australian multi-sport athlete<br />
Alex Hunt and New Zealander Bobby<br />
Dean loom as men’s defending World<br />
Championship Longest Day champion<br />
Sam Clark’s biggest challenges. Clark<br />
stormed home last year to pass Braden<br />
Currie on the final bike leg and claim<br />
back-to-back wins in the World Championship<br />
longest day event.<br />
Dean has raced for top adventure racing<br />
team Team Bivouac inov-8 and was 11th<br />
in the 2016 Kathmandu Coast to Coast<br />
and fourth last year while Hunt is back for<br />
his third crack at his favourite event and is<br />
aiming to repeat his 2016 podium effort.<br />

Christchurch United<br />
Academy growing<br />
at rapid pace<br />
The Christchurch United Football<br />

continues to develop at a rapid pace.<br />
The arrival of high-profile Academy<br />
Director Colin Williamson is another major<br />
step in the development of the academy<br />
based at the world-class Christchurch<br />
Football Centre (CFC) on Yaldhurst Road.<br />
Williamson worked with some of the best<br />
coaches in the Netherlands during his seven<br />
years at professional clubs PSV Eindhoven<br />
and Roda JC. He will be working closely<br />
with the club’s Brazilian Head Coach<br />
Fernando Lambert in developing the other<br />
coaches at Christchurch United.<br />
This year the academy has expanded to<br />
include an U13, two U14 and an U15 squad.<br />
Christchurch United also offers preacademy<br />
programmes from U6 to U12 and<br />
will expand its community programmes<br />
for players from the age of 4 to 17, with<br />
additional pitches at Yaldhurst, as well as<br />
the historical base at Spreydon Domain.<br />
Players can join the community teams<br />
from $119 a season, and still get the<br />
benefit of the professional coaching staff<br />
supporting the volunteer coaches.<br />
The academy and CFC were created<br />
by Christchurch businessman Slava<br />
Meyn in 2014 to provide all-year football<br />
development with top quality coaching.<br />
The academy in 2016 merged with<br />
the Christchurch United and last year<br />

1 in 2 people<br />
deficient in B12<br />
Emerging research has shown as many as 50% of older adults and<br />
as many as 25% of younger adults are deficient in vitamin B12.<br />
Scientists at Rush University Medical<br />
Center found those most deficient<br />
in vitamin B12 to have the smallest<br />
brain mass & the lowest scores on<br />
tests measuring short-term memory,<br />
concentration & brain performance.<br />
Another study showed that older people<br />
with higher levels of B12 in their blood<br />
have bigger, healthier brains & score higher<br />
on cognitive tests than those with lower<br />
levels. Yet another recent landmark study<br />
showed that B12 supplementation slows<br />
the accelerated rate of brain shrinkage<br />
& declining cognitive function. B12 is<br />
essential for energy production, cell<br />
health, regulation of mood & sleep cycles,<br />
nerve health & repair, & prevention of<br />
homocysteine a serious cardiovascular<br />
risk factor that is known to cause damage<br />
& plaque in the blood vessels. It can also<br />
increase the chances of a stroke. Harvard<br />
researchers found<br />
a 34% decrease<br />
risk of vision<br />
loss in a study<br />
of participants<br />
aged 40+ who<br />
supplemented<br />
with B12. Another<br />
study<br />
linked a higher risk of hearing loss in<br />
neW<br />
subjects in their 60’s who were low in B12.<br />
The reason so many people lack B12<br />
appears to be our body’s ability to absorb<br />
it declining with age as the digestive<br />
system becomes less efficient. Anti-reflux<br />
medication & other drugs further reduce<br />
B12 absorption. The good news is B12 in<br />
the form of Methylcobalamin sublingual<br />
tablets that are dissolved in the mouth &<br />
thru bypassing the digestive tract have<br />
been shown to effectively raise B12 levels in<br />
the body.<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 />
eczema, psoriasis,<br />
dermatitis, herpes<br />
sores (cold-sores),<br />
insect bites and<br />
stings, rheumatism,<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 />

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 />

What’s happening<br />
at Lady Wigram<br />
Retirement Village?<br />
It’s been a busy few years for The<br />
Golden Healthcare Group with their latest<br />
development of Lady Wigram Retirement<br />
Village on Kittyhawk Road. The first villas<br />
were occupied in August 2015 and now 101<br />
villas are completed.<br />
In December, the club house opened<br />
which provides a bowling green, hair<br />
dressing salon, restaurant and bar, billiard<br />
room, movie theatre and library. The Club<br />
House has all the trimmings, including 16<br />
one and two bedrooms Apartments. The<br />
next stage will also include a swimming<br />
pool, gym and a further 14 Apartments.<br />
When speaking with one of their<br />
residents about how he feels about the new<br />
Club house, Mr Havill said “everyone is<br />
so excited about it opening, we have all<br />
been watching it very closely’. Mr Havill is<br />
fascinated as to how the fountain works.<br />
He has lived in the village for the past<br />
few years, enjoying his new life style and<br />
making friends. He has also picked up new<br />
hobbies including learning to play mahjong,<br />
“I love it, I had never played in my life”. Mr<br />
Havill owned his own home for 44 years<br />
and in that time he maintained the house,<br />
painted it, did this... did that. “We don’t<br />
have to do that anymore, this is my place for<br />
the moment. Every villa is different, even<br />
121 Skyhawk Road<br />
though they look the same. But you make it<br />
your own”. One thing Mr Havill likes at this<br />
age is “the gates shut at night, we can get in<br />
but no one else can and that is an additional<br />
sense of security for us”.<br />
Owner John Tooby says “our residents<br />
are very involved in the continuing<br />
development of the village, they share our<br />
pride in making this a great place to live. It’s<br />
a real community and it continues to grow”.<br />
ARE YOU READY<br />
TO DOWNSIZE?<br />
Paying rates for a house that’s<br />
too big? Paying maintenance and<br />
heating costs for space you don’t use?<br />
A move to one of our<br />
architecturally designed villas<br />
at McKenzie Lifestyle Village in<br />
Geraldine will cut those costs.<br />
Three villas are available for<br />
occupation now, priced from<br />
$355,000.<br />

Hydrate to elevate<br />
We all know drinking water is important, but the<br />
majority of us simply don’t drink enough even though<br />
we know it makes us feel great when we do. We look<br />
at the benefits and motivate you to drink more with a<br />
few tips on how to make it just a little more palatable.<br />
With over a quarter of Kiwis consuming<br />
less than two glasses of water a day and only<br />
5% drinking more than the recommended<br />
eight, the message obviously hasn’t hit<br />
home on the importance of hydrating our<br />
body.<br />
A recent survey conducted by<br />
SodaStream found that Cantabrians are<br />
particularly guilty when it comes to their<br />
water intake.<br />
With 82% drinking less than six glasses<br />
of water a day, but with over 85% admitting<br />
they feel healthier when they drink more<br />
water, something needs to be done to<br />
bridge the gap in terms of what we know<br />
to be true and what we’re actually doing<br />
about it.<br />
This same survey revealed that although<br />
41% of us limit how many soft drinks we<br />
consume due to our concerns over sugar<br />
content, the same number of people said<br />
tea or coffee is this their number one drink<br />
of choice.<br />
Some people even believe that the water<br />
consumed in their cup of Joe constitutes<br />
part of their water intake. This is a fallacy.<br />
As caffeine actually dehydrates us, as<br />
does alcohol too, it means we need to<br />
drink even more water to compensate.<br />
Not so surprisingly the reason we don’t<br />
drink nearly enough water is that we<br />
simply forget. Now with apps you can<br />
download direct to your smart phone,<br />
there are no more excuses.<br />
Further studies proved that people who<br />
had a SodaStream machine in their homes<br />
were more likely to drink more water.<br />
In fact, the study showed that people<br />
drank 30% more water.<br />
For those of us who aren’t used<br />
to drinking water like it’s going<br />
out of fashion, there are plenty of ways<br />
to increase the fun factor while still<br />
being healthy.<br />
By simply turning tap water into<br />
sparkling water with a SodaStream<br />
machine and adding a splash of fresh<br />
lemon juice or naturally squeezed fruit<br />
juice, is bound to have a positive impact on<br />
our health and wellbeing.<br />
