The 72-year-old from<br />
Parklands says she’s on the<br />
lookout for someone who shares<br />
her love for birds to take her<br />
place nursing them back to<br />
health.<br />
Mrs Stevenson gave up her<br />
job as a nurse when she realised<br />
birds were her true passion.<br />
Since then, her home has been<br />
transformed into a bird rescue<br />
centre.<br />
However, Mrs Stevenson<br />
said the long days and sleepless<br />

Teenage<br />
taggers<br />
caught<br />
by police<br />
• By Georgia O’Connor-Harding<br />
POLICE HAVE caught six<br />
youths they believe were involved<br />
in a tagging spree throughout<br />
Halswell.<br />
They want people who have<br />
had their properties or vehicles<br />
tagged to call police in a bid to<br />
gauge the extent of the vandalism<br />
committed.<br />
Police are dealing with six<br />
youths aged between 13-15<br />
involved with the vandalism that<br />
occurred on January 28.<br />
At least two cars and three<br />
fences were vandalised, along with<br />
a tool shed broken into at Aidanfield<br />
where an axe was stolen and<br />
found lodged into a lawn.<br />
It is suspected further tagging<br />
took place in the early hours of<br />
Tuesday morning.<br />
The vandalism took place in the<br />
Aidanfield/Westlake/Halswell<br />
area. Hornby police youth aid<br />
worker Senior Constable Bruce<br />
Ward said police are uncertain<br />
about to the extent of the damage<br />
done. But he said in the past police<br />
have found people do not report<br />
incidents of tagging when they<br />
should be.<br />

On page 14 today, we highlight the<br />
youngster’s victory in the Canterbury<br />
men’s first and second first year championship.<br />
Logan comes from good bowls stock. His father Jason is a<br />
handy player and those genes have also rubbed off onto Logan’s<br />
16-year-old brother Jordan.<br />
In the semi-final, Logan prevailed Jordan. No doubt those two<br />
will continue to face each other in the years to come.<br />
Logan was in the Halswell four which was runner up in the<br />
open section. It also included his father and Darryl Hawker,<br />
the current Canterbury coach, and part of the great Halswell<br />
premier rugby league team during the 1980s.<br />

Visiting teens likely troublemakers<br />
• By Louis Day<br />
VISITING teenagers may have<br />
been the troublemakers at the<br />
Sumner skate ramp over the<br />
holidays.<br />
Residents have posted on the<br />
Sumner Community Facebook<br />
group, angry at some of the<br />
behaviour at the Nayland St<br />
skate ramp.<br />
One woman said she was<br />
abused by a group of teenagers<br />
believed to be about 14, before<br />
they threatened to run the<br />
woman and her three-year-old<br />
son over<br />
with their<br />
skateboards.<br />
Another<br />
woman said<br />
she had objects<br />
thrown at<br />
her car on a<br />
few occasions<br />
when driving<br />
Franco Lovrich<br />
her children<br />
home at night.<br />
Both women did not wish to<br />
speak to <strong>Southern</strong> <strong>View</strong>.<br />
Red Snapper fish ’n’ chip<br />
shop owner Adam Jenkins was<br />
convinced the teenagers causing<br />
trouble were visitors.<br />
“There was a bunch of riff-raff<br />
out here that day, they came in<br />
here and got lunch, not kids I<br />
have seen before.”<br />
ISSUES: Visiting teenagers are suspected to be behind the incidents at the Sumner skate<br />
ramp.<br />
Mr Jenkins said the teenagers<br />
were smoking, drinking and<br />
fighting among themselves<br />
throughout the day.<br />
There have also been issues<br />
with skateboarders causing<br />
problems and littering at the<br />
Sumner Centre, across the road<br />
from the ramp. One group had<br />
been told to leave the centre.<br />
Sergeant Franco Lovrich said<br />
police were not aware of the<br />
incidents.<br />
“The issue with Facebook is<br />
that we don’t monitor social<br />
media sites, it is imperative<br />
people report directly to us.<br />
That way we can get an accurate<br />
judgement of offences as they<br />
occur and from there we can<br />
prioritise resources.”<br />

Why Riccarton Rd is being upgraded<br />
The city council answers<br />
some of the most common<br />
questions about why it is<br />
upgrading Riccarton Rd<br />
Major roadworks to begin this<br />
month will involve upgrading<br />
damaged underground pipes<br />
and rebuilding the road to<br />
accommodate bus priority<br />
measures. The nearly two-year<br />
project is not expected to be<br />
completed until December 2020.<br />
Why does this work have to<br />
be done now?<br />
The sewer pipes that run underneath<br />
Riccarton Rd are nearly<br />
100 years old. They have reached<br />
the end of their lifespan and<br />
need replacing. If the city council<br />
delays replacing them, there is a<br />
risk they could fail, resulting in<br />
major disruption and roadworks.<br />
The road surface is also in poor<br />
condition, with damage evident<br />
in many areas. At the same time<br />
as resurfacing, bus priority will<br />
be added measures so that buses<br />
can travel more easily along Riccarton<br />
Rd, which will cut travel<br />
times along this busy route.<br />
Why is it going to take almost<br />
two years?<br />
If the city council is only<br />
resurfacing the road it could<br />
complete the upgrade in a much<br />
shorter time frame. It is because<br />
• By Louis Day<br />
TENDERS WILL are being<br />
called to repair the earthquakedamaged<br />
Scarborough Clock<br />
Tower.<br />
The city council wants to<br />
appoint one contractor to<br />
undertake the repairs of the<br />
Scarborough and New Brighton<br />
clock towers.<br />
City council head of parks<br />
Andrew Rutledge was confident<br />
its repair strategy would save<br />
ratepayers’ money by having one<br />
contractor handle both towers.<br />
“We believe the cost for<br />
keeping the scaffold up is minor,<br />
considering the cost efficiencies<br />
TURMOIL: The city council has answered some of the most common questions on why<br />
Riccarton Rd needs to be upgraded.<br />
it needs to also replace the water<br />
and sewer pipes that run beneath<br />
the road that this project is likely<br />
to take until December 2020 to<br />
complete.<br />
What’s the most time-consuming<br />
aspect of the work?<br />
The sewer pipe is located 4m<br />
below the road so a very deep<br />
trench has to be dug. The trench<br />
sides need to be supported so it is<br />
a time-consuming process. Work<br />
in packaging both projects<br />
together. The tenderers also<br />
require the scaffold to be up to<br />
fully inspect the structure and<br />
damage so that they can price<br />
their tender.” Repairs are yet to<br />
start in spite of the scaffolding<br />
being in place since <strong>February</strong><br />
last year. The scaffolding is also<br />
costing ratepayers $1500 per<br />
month.<br />
Once a contractor has been<br />
secured, repairs are expected to<br />
take six months to complete.<br />
Sumner resident of 40 years<br />
Sam Bradley was frustrated by<br />
the lack of progress that has been<br />
made on the tower.<br />
“I’m the manager for a building<br />
on the trench can only proceed<br />
about 1m a day. Contractors are<br />
starting at three different work<br />
sites to speed up the process.<br />
Can’t you speed-up the<br />
work by working at night and<br />
weekends?<br />
Contractors will be working<br />
nights and weekends when<br />
required, but during the sewer<br />
pipework, it is dangerous to work<br />
at night because good lighting<br />
Clock tower tenders sought<br />
company and if we ran our<br />
company like that we wouldn’t<br />
have one to run anymore.”<br />
Mr Bradley was also<br />
disappointed to see the<br />
scaffolding being used by vandals<br />
to deface the clock tower.<br />
TICKING: The scaffolding<br />
around the Scarborough<br />
Clock Tower is costing<br />
ratepayers $1500 a month but<br />
work to repair the tower has<br />
still not started.<br />
is needed. There are also motels<br />
and a rest home along the route<br />
and night work would be very<br />
disruptive for them so it is a case<br />
of balancing the needs of the<br />
whole community.<br />
Why are you putting a treelined<br />
median strip down the<br />
middle?<br />
In 2015, the city council asked<br />
the community for views on two<br />
upgrade options – one with a<br />
tree-lined median and one without.<br />
The option with trees along<br />
a central median was preferred.<br />
This option was subsequently<br />
recommended by the Halswell-<br />
Hornby-Riccarton Community<br />
Board to the city council’s<br />
infrastructure, transport and<br />
environment committee, which<br />
approved the scheme in August<br />
2015. The tree-lined median<br />
uses space made available by the<br />
removal of car parks. There is<br />
still one lane of traffic in each direction,<br />
as there is now. The treelined<br />
median should help to slow<br />
traffic speeds and make the area<br />
safer for pedestrians, cyclists and<br />
drivers. The trees, along with<br />
other streetscape enhancements,<br />
such as new furniture, paving<br />
and landscaping, will also make<br />
this part of central Riccarton<br />
more attractive and a destination<br />
rather than solely a transport<br />
corridor.<br />
Do other parts of Riccarton<br />
Rd need upgrading?<br />
The stretch of Riccarton<br />
Rd between Deans Ave and<br />
Harakeke St has already been<br />
upgraded. No other work of<br />
this scale is planned but some<br />
improvements to intersections<br />
and other facilities, such as for<br />
cycling, are scheduled to occur<br />
over the next 10 years.<br />

Removal<br />
of trees<br />
upsets<br />
campers<br />
• By Louis Day<br />
ABOUT 200 trees have<br />
been removed at Okains Bay<br />
camping ground.<br />
The city council removed<br />
trees from the area as part of<br />
their Reserve Landscape Plan<br />
last June.<br />
Additional trees on the<br />
western side of the camping<br />
ground also had to be removed <br />
due to damage caused by salt<br />
water inundation in last year’s<br />
king tides.<br />
But the felling of the pine,<br />
gum and macrocarpa trees<br />
has left some campers<br />
“heartbroken”.<br />
One camper who had been<br />
going to the camping ground<br />
for more than 40 years said they<br />
were “heartbroken” when they<br />
returned to the area over the<br />
holidays.<br />
“It’s taken away a lot of<br />
natural shelter, it looks terrible,<br />
they have left a lot of the trees<br />
just lying around. They have left<br />
some of the stumps of up to 1m<br />
just sticking out of the ground<br />
in some places.”<br />
The camper said the removal<br />
of the trees had left campers<br />
exposed to the sun and wind.<br />
“Trees that have been killed<br />
by the seawater in high tide<br />
haven’t been removed, yet all of<br />
these other ones have.”<br />
Head of recreation, sports<br />
and events Nigel Cox said<br />
they were working to replace<br />
some of the trees which had<br />
been felled.<br />
“A community planting<br />
day was held in September. A<br />
large number of native trees<br />
were planted into newlyestablished<br />
raised gardens.<br />
More planting in line with the<br />
Reserve Landscape Plan will be<br />
completed this coming year.”<br />

“I’m getting older and each<br />
year’s getting harder. It’s quite<br />
physical work,” Mrs Stevenson<br />
said.<br />
She said for all of the birds she<br />
had managed to save, many died<br />
in her care and it had made her<br />
job even harder.<br />
Her husband supported the<br />
decision to seek someone to take<br />
over her role.<br />
“He hates coming home and<br />
seeing me so tired, so I’ve got to<br />
Latest Christchurch news at www.star.kiwi<br />
think of him too.”<br />
Mrs Stevenson estimated she<br />
had cared for about 200 birds last<br />
year. All of her work had been<br />
voluntary, with some financial<br />
support coming from donations.<br />
Mrs Stevenson received $100<br />
in petrol vouchers a year from<br />
the Department of Conservation,<br />
and dog and cat biscuits to mash<br />
up and feed to the birds from the<br />
SPCA and Dogwatch.<br />
She said cats were the main<br />
cause of injuries to birds. But<br />
•From page 1<br />
“Half a dozen kids can tag a<br />
lot of places so we want to be on<br />
top of this really quickly,” Senior<br />
Constable Ward said.<br />
Several youths had gone to<br />
a house in Halswell<br />
on Sunday night and<br />
unbeknownst to the<br />
parent they snuck out<br />
in the night, picked up<br />
more youths, consumed<br />
alcohol and spraypainted<br />
properties, he<br />
said. The tagging was<br />
brought to the police’s<br />
attention by one of the<br />
parents who had seen one of the<br />
boys covered in spray paint.<br />
“The parents are horrified,”<br />
Senior Constable Ward said.<br />
Residents on Wigram Rd, near<br />
Westlake Park were one of the<br />
unfortunate targets on a Monday<br />
morning.<br />
A resident, who did not wish<br />
recently the number of injuries<br />
caused by vehicles had increased.<br />
The number of native wood<br />
pigeons brought to her with<br />
injuries was also increasing. The<br />
birds commonly received injuries<br />
from flying into car windows.<br />

a note left on the doorstep<br />
of several dog owners in<br />
Lyttelton threatening to call<br />
dog control<br />
Kaye Le Fleur – What’s<br />
wrong with that note? I have had<br />
a few dogs and if I received a note<br />
like that I would<br />
take responsibility<br />
and make sure my<br />
dog was not left<br />
alone and getting<br />
bored, I would<br />
make sure the dog<br />
would not be able to<br />
wander, and be very<br />
happy that someone<br />
had taken the time<br />
to notify me before notifying the<br />
authorities. Nothing worse than<br />
repeated barking dogs, dog poo<br />
and wandering dogs. Just be a<br />
responsible owner, simple.<br />
Philip Baker – If the dog is<br />
out roaming then fair enough.<br />
Jade Mulcahy – Brilliant<br />
idea. Most dog owners think<br />
their dog is lovely and think<br />
everyone else does too – wrong.<br />
Good thing to do to avoid<br />
unnecessary confrontation, at<br />
least they didn’t just ring dog<br />
control first.<br />
Ashleigh Jarden – Keep<br />
your dogs on your property and<br />
you won’t have an issue.<br />
Freedom campers at reserve frustrate residents<br />
• By Louis Day<br />
Cassey Millward – I<br />
understand the roaming, as<br />
that is a safety issue and no way<br />
should dogs be taking themselves<br />
on little adventures. But most<br />
dogs bark a few times throughout<br />
the day. I have two dogs and<br />
they bark at each other when<br />
they are playing or if someone<br />
arrives. I have neighbours either<br />
side who also have<br />
dogs that bark. None<br />
persistently, but a few<br />
times throughout<br />
the day you will<br />
hear barking for<br />
short periods of<br />
time. People mow<br />
lawns and cut hedges<br />
through the day. You<br />
can’t expect silence<br />
throughout the day, it’s totally<br />
unreasonable. I am very grateful<br />
for the neighbours I have, as<br />
some people sound like a total<br />
nightmare.<br />
Cathryn Rose Creamer –<br />
Fair enough if a dog is roaming,<br />
but someone trying to nap in<br />
the afternoon and dogs barking<br />
– get ear plugs. Don’t want to<br />
live near dogs? Then move into<br />
the country where your closest<br />
neighbours are 500m away.<br />
James Boswell – All of<br />
the things in the letter apply to<br />
almost every cat owner I know<br />
too. I’m not condoning the<br />
behaviour of the owner of this<br />
DIAMOND Harbour residents<br />
are calling for tighter freedom<br />
camping restrictions at Stoddart<br />
Point Reserve.<br />
Residents have been frustrated<br />
by freedom campers throwing<br />
their rubbish on the ground only<br />
a few metres away from empty<br />
bins.<br />
Congestion at the reserve means<br />
it is also difficult to find a car park<br />
in the morning before commuters<br />
catch the ferry to work. Freedom<br />
campers are currently restricted<br />
to staying for up to two nights in<br />
any 30-day period in certified selfcontained<br />
vehicles.<br />
However, Diamond Harbour<br />
Community Association<br />
chairman Richard Suggate said<br />
the current restrictions were not<br />
enough.<br />
“That area is not big enough to<br />
cope with those sort of numbers.<br />
A few years ago it wasn’t a<br />
problem but now the numbers<br />
are too high.”<br />
Diamond Harbour resident<br />
Cheryl Glen said she had grown<br />
more and more frustrated after<br />
continuing to see rubbish left on<br />
the reserve by freedom campers.<br />
“There were times where the<br />
bins would be empty and there<br />

cat owners allowed to let their<br />
cats roam the neighbourhood,<br />
and risk attacking pet birds,<br />
chasing and intimidating other<br />
cats and defecating on other<br />
people’s properties?<br />
Tina Harding – Pretty<br />
simple, be aware of your dogs –<br />
not every one is approachable.<br />
Sian Vermeer – No one<br />
would still be rubbish left on the<br />
ground.”<br />
Ms Glen said the number of<br />
freedom campers at the reserve<br />
often made it impossible for her<br />
to find a park before catching the<br />
ferry to work.<br />
“Most mornings I can’t find a<br />
park, where are we meant to park<br />
to go to catch the ferry and go to<br />
work?”<br />
City council head of strategic<br />
policy Emma Davis said the<br />
Freedom Camping Bylaw was<br />
due for a full five-year review in<br />
2020 and the city council was<br />
unlikely to make any changes<br />
before that.<br />

Fire rages, homes at risk<br />
destroyed. Feels like a courtesy<br />
more than anything leaving a<br />
note.<br />
Anna Barclay – Well to be<br />
fair, keep your dog on your own<br />
property is a pretty reasonable<br />
request, considering the dog’s<br />
own safety and the safety of<br />
others.<br />
Lou Skinner – I’ve had this<br />
problem before and believe me<br />
you don’t always want to have<br />
a nice “chat” to the owners. If<br />
you have animals take care of<br />
them. Roaming dogs aren’t just a<br />
nuisance, they are also at risk of<br />
getting hurt. I think the note is a<br />
great idea.<br />
Philip Baker – My dog<br />
has a fenced area he’s in for when<br />
I’m out. If he gets out of that area<br />
he’s still fenced in by boundary<br />
fences.<br />
Evelyn Williamson – I can<br />
never understand people who let<br />
their dog wander. I’d be worried it<br />
would get run over or cause an accident.<br />
If you love your dog you’ll<br />
keep it safe on your property.<br />
Dean Pover – If the dog constantly<br />
roams, call the pound.<br />
Heather Bevan – Dogs<br />
can be under control but still<br />
bark and it is for a reason. Not<br />

Photography exhibition<br />
showcases the<br />
‘many faces’ of Linwood<br />
• By Matt Slaughter<br />
ALASDAIR WRIGHT is<br />
combining his 55-year love affair<br />
with cameras and photography<br />
with his love for the area he<br />
lives in.<br />
The Linwood<br />
resident is one of 12<br />
photographers with<br />
work on display at an<br />
exhibition focusing on<br />
the community and its<br />
diversity.<br />
The Many Faces of the<br />
Inner City East/Linwood<br />
exhibition was set to<br />
open yesterday at the<br />
Linwood Community<br />
Arts Centre and Eastside Gallery.<br />
Wright, 59, said he has been<br />
living in Linwood for seven years<br />
and has seen it go through huge<br />
changes since the earthquakes.<br />
He said the aim of his<br />
photographs is to document<br />
what Linwood was like before the<br />
changes occurred and the past is<br />
forgotten.<br />
“It’s important to record things<br />
because when you think I’ll<br />
take that photo now and don’t<br />
have a camera and go back a few<br />
days or years later, the case may<br />
Alasdair Wright<br />
be that they’re gone.” Wright<br />
said Linwood’s population<br />
and landscape has changed.<br />
He said showcasing this in the<br />
photographs was key.<br />
“It’s important to see the<br />
changing face of Linwood because<br />
we’ve got a wide gamut of<br />
society around here.”<br />
“You can travel the<br />
world without even<br />
having to leave home.”<br />
Linwood Community<br />
Arts Centre and Eastside<br />
Gallery exhibition coordinator<br />
Shirley Scarlett<br />
said the display was<br />
about Linwood residents<br />
like Wright “defining<br />
the neighbourhood on their own<br />
terms.”<br />
Ms Scarlett said the exhibition<br />
was also about breaking down the<br />
stereotypes that could sometimes<br />
have a negative effect on how<br />
others viewed Linwood.<br />
“The exhibition focuses on<br />
celebrating and delving deeper<br />
into a community that doesn’t<br />
always get the best coverage.”<br />
It was about “capturing the<br />
good and the beautiful alongside<br />
the challenges and concerns” of<br />
the community, she said<br />

THE SEASIDE Toy Library<br />
hopes an open day will make it<br />
a haven for toy lovers and their<br />
families.<br />
The library, which operates<br />
out of St Luke’s Church in South<br />
New Brighton, will host the<br />
event on March 9 from 9.30amnoon.<br />
It aims to promote the library<br />
to people in the area and attract<br />
new members.<br />
Seaside Toy Library chairman<br />
Andy Dimond said it was one<br />
of many businesses in the east<br />
that had a hard time after the<br />
earthquakes.<br />
“The library did struggle<br />
financially and struggled with<br />
attracting membership and<br />
volunteers.”<br />
Since then, Mr Dimond said<br />
the toy library had employed a<br />
part-time librarian and this had<br />
helped it gain some stability.<br />
However, he said word needed<br />
to get out if the library should be<br />
used to its full potential.<br />
“There are a lot of young<br />
families in the area who don’t<br />
know about the toy library,<br />
how much it costs and when<br />
we operate, so this is a good<br />
opportunity to promote<br />
the library and also build<br />
relationships in the local area,”<br />
he said.<br />

shown he has a bright future in<br />
bowls.<br />
The 15-year-old Halswell<br />
player defeated Jonathan<br />
Truesdale, of Cust, 21-10 to win<br />
the Bowls Canterbury men’s first<br />
and second year centre title.<br />
Logan comes from a talented<br />
bowls family. In the semi-final,<br />
he defeated his 16-year-old<br />
brother, Jordan, 21-12.<br />
“He usually beats me when<br />
we’re practicing but I got on top<br />
of him that day,” said Logan.<br />
He also teamed up with<br />
his father, Jason Dunn, in<br />
the Halswell fours team and<br />
made the final before losing to<br />
Rangiora 4-20.<br />
“As soon as we step on the<br />
green, he’s just another player.<br />
He accepts that and he wouldn’t<br />
want it any other way either,”<br />
said Jason.<br />
Logan completed a trio of<br />
final appearances by making<br />
his way to the under-20 singles<br />
final which was taken out by<br />
Rangiora’s Rebecca Jelfs 21-19 in<br />
a tight match.<br />
The Bowls Canterbury centre<br />
championships began with<br />
round-robin play in November<br />
before the finals weekend at<br />
Parklands from January 26-27.<br />
Although the family represent<br />
Halswell, they travel to the club<br />
for inter-club each Saturday from<br />
their home in Hawarden.<br />
FAMILY TIES: As well as winning the Bowls Canterbury first and second year centre title,<br />
Logan Dunn (right) finished second in the men’s fours with Darryl Hawker (left), his father Jason<br />
Dunn and Paul Matheson.<br />
“That’s just given the kids<br />
the best opportunity to fulfil<br />
what they want to in the game.<br />
There’s not enough up here in<br />
our area. Now they’ve got good,<br />
hard competitive bowlers to go<br />
against and get their game to the<br />
next level,” said Jason, who is a<br />
well know greyhound trainer. He<br />
grew up in Sydney and pursued<br />
bowls into his mid-20s. He<br />
played representative bowls for<br />
New South Wales but gave the<br />
sport away when he moved to<br />
Christchurch in 2007.<br />
Logan didn’t know about<br />
bowls until being introduced to<br />
it by his father when he took him<br />
to the green two years ago.<br />
“It just clicked and I’ve liked<br />
it from day dot,” said Logan. “I<br />
played rugby for a year but I’m<br />
too small for that.”<br />
Canterbury men’s coach<br />
Darryl Hawker – who played in a<br />
Halswell fours team with Logan<br />
– believes the 15-year-old could<br />
SPORTS<br />
go a long way in bowls.<br />
“I think he could have a<br />
big future in the game, his<br />
commitment to improving as<br />
a bowler is impressive,” said<br />
Hawker.<br />
Practicing three to four times<br />
a week, Logan dreams of playing<br />
the sport professionally one day.<br />
“I want to be world champion,”<br />
he said.<br />
If his progression in the sport<br />
continues, the Sydney-born<br />
bowler could find himself<br />
having to make a choice between<br />
representing New Zealand or<br />
Australia one day.<br />
The family’s current rugby<br />
allegiances are split, with the<br />
boys backing the Wallabies and<br />
the girls cheering on the All<br />
Blacks.<br />
As for Logan’s future bowling<br />
allegiances: “It all depends who<br />
gives me the offer,” he said.<br />
Other Halswell players to<br />
make finals were Phil Austin,<br />
who was defeated by Elmwood<br />
Park’s Bruce Humphreys 15-21<br />
in the men’s under-eight singles<br />
final, while Rex Carpinter, John<br />
Connolly and John Topham were<br />
also beaten finalists in the over<br />
60s triples. The title was won by<br />
Elmwood Park 18-4.<br />

Centuries old folk remedy supports<br />
good health!<br />
A fermented liquid health<br />
tonic offers an array of<br />
powerful health benefits. It is<br />
none other than the popular<br />
apple cider vinegar or ACV.<br />
Since the time of Hippocrates – the “Father<br />
of Medicine” – ACV has been renowned for its<br />
curative properties.<br />
In his popular book “ARTHRITIS & FOLK<br />
MEDICINE”, DR. D.C. Jarvis reports how he<br />
found that Vermonters who regularly consumed<br />
ACV and Honey had excellent health with<br />
many putting in a vigorous day’s work on the<br />
farm even when well into their eighties. He also<br />
noted the effects of ACV and H on arthritis to be<br />
remarkable with many patients reporting almost<br />
total relief after taking a course of the<br />
mixture. Dr. Jarvis surmised that<br />
the acid and potassium in cider<br />
vinegar counteracted calcium<br />
deposits and helped the body<br />
control calcium use. He also noted<br />
that Vermonters who consumed<br />
ACV and H around meal time<br />
had excellent blood pressure and<br />
circulation. The reason he found<br />
was that protein foods thickened<br />
the blood and vinegar thinned it.<br />
As the blood thickens it cannot<br />
pass as easily and quickly through<br />
the blood vessels and capillaries. This<br />
poor blood flow would reduce cellular<br />
health by limiting nutrients to the cells<br />
as well as waste elimination from the cells.<br />
To prevent cell damage the body naturally<br />
increases blood pressure but this puts more stress<br />
on the blood vessels, organs and heart. Having<br />
ACV and H with meals will help prevent protein<br />
raising the blood pressure. It also contributes<br />
to a feeling of greater well-being because the<br />
thinner blood circulates quickly and more easily<br />
through the blood vessels. Dr. Jarvis found regular<br />
consumption of CV and H to be an excellent<br />
health tonic with numerous Health attributes.<br />
ACV is highly nutritious as it contains all the<br />
goodness of the apple in a form that is readily<br />
accepted by the bodyGood health starts with good<br />
digestion and assimilation of nutrients. ACV taken<br />
before food will stimulate and promote healthy<br />
digestion and assimilation of vital nutrients for<br />
good health. A well-functioning digestive system<br />
helps prevent disease by neutralising any toxic<br />
substances that enter the body.<br />
It is important to note not all ACV is produced<br />
in the traditional way and results are likely to<br />
prove disappointing with these other vinegars.<br />
Marshall’s Premium ACV & ACV with 20%<br />
Manuka Honey is produced in Canterbury from<br />
Organic whole apples in the traditional way. It is<br />
double strength so you can use less.<br />

Device to prevent<br />
snoring<br />
Why put up with broken sleep, when<br />
help is at hand with Snorex, an appliance<br />
that prevents snoring, sleep apnoea, and<br />
dry and raw throats.<br />
Snorex is custom-fitted to your mouth<br />
for comfort, and a follow up service is<br />
provided.<br />
Denise Lim has been involved with<br />
Snores for 22 years and has had a 98%<br />
success rate with<br />
people using the<br />
appliance. Snoring<br />
can be a health<br />
hazard, causing<br />
sleep apnoea, where<br />
the person actually<br />
stops breathing for<br />
short periods.<br />
It can cause<br />
short-term memory<br />
loss, tiredness and<br />
contribute to high<br />
blood pressure.<br />
The Snorex<br />
device does not feel<br />
restrictive, is noninvasive<br />
and carries<br />
a money-back<br />
guarantee.<br />
Many people are referred by ear, nose<br />
and throat specialists, however, anyone can<br />
phone for an appointment.<br />
For an information pack or to discuss<br />
the Snorex further, phone Denise Lim on<br />

Collagen<br />
The Body’s Youth Protein<br />
Collagen is the primary protein in the<br />
body. It is a major component of skin,<br />
hair, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments,<br />
joint cartilage, bones, gums, teeth, eyes,<br />
and blood vessels.<br />
In fact collagen is the primary<br />
structural component for all tissue<br />
in the body, providing the strength<br />
and resilience associated with youth,<br />
beauty and wellness. The body’s natural<br />
collagen production decreases with<br />
age resulting in many signs of aging,<br />
such as flaccid skin, wrinkles, ligament<br />
and tendon injuries and aching joints.<br />
Collagen supplementation is one of<br />
the most fundamental things a person<br />
can do to prevent premature aging and<br />
promote youthful vitality.<br />
NEOCELL are the industry leaders<br />
in research on collagen supplementation.<br />
Through advanced research they have<br />
perfected a way to hydrolyse collagen and<br />
effectively reduce its molecular weight this<br />
improving the absorption of collagen into<br />
the blood stream by over 90%.<br />
A clinical study on NEOCELL<br />
COLLAGEN has shown skin hydration to<br />
increase an average of 21% and up to 50%,<br />
with 92% of test subjects experiencing<br />
firmer, softer skin. Most people taking<br />
NEOCELL COLLAGEN reported seeing<br />
visible improvements within two weeks.<br />
Collagen supplementation provides<br />
the nutrients necessary to support the<br />
body’s collagen supply. It can help reduce<br />
fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin<br />
elasticity, support building of strong bones<br />
and teeth, strengthen the nails and hair,<br />
and is vital for muscle growth, It also<br />
assists weight loss by helping burn fat<br />
for energy, promotes wound healing by<br />
supporting the regeneration of healthy<br />
tissue as well as help support overall<br />
health.<br />
