Family rush to raise funds for<br />
Oscar’s life-changing surgery<br />
• By Pierre Nixon<br />
THE FAMILY of a young<br />
man with a debilitating,<br />
rare abdominal syndrome<br />
is desperately fundraising<br />
for a life-saving operation in<br />
Germany.<br />
Oscar Parker, once a thriving<br />
musician, singer, and rep<br />
hockey player at St Bede’s College<br />
now faces a life-threatening<br />
challenge.<br />
Four years ago, his health<br />
took a downturn, leaving him<br />
with debilitating symptoms and<br />
a mystery illness.<br />
CHALLENGING:<br />
Oscar Parker,<br />
21, who has a<br />
rare abdominal<br />
syndrome, needs<br />
surgery that isn’t<br />
delivered in New<br />
Zealand.<br />
Fast forward to <strong>February</strong><br />
<strong>2024</strong>, 21-year-old Oscar finally<br />
has answers – a confirmed diagnosis<br />
of abdominal vascular<br />
compression syndrome (AVCS),<br />
an exceedingly rare disease,<br />
especially in males.<br />
Oscar was diagnosed with the<br />
rare syndrome by Dusseldorfbased<br />
vascular surgeon<br />
Wilhelm Sandmann after his<br />
family found a Facebook group<br />
and connected with other<br />
families going through similar<br />
situations.<br />

Disorder,<br />
crime<br />
in Brighton<br />
keep<br />
guardians<br />
busy<br />
• By Sasha Watson<br />
NEW BRIGHTON’S security<br />
patrol is dealing with 20-25<br />
incidents a week, which include<br />
supermarket thefts, alcohol<br />
consumption and assaults.<br />
But the guardians initiative<br />
ends in March, prompting calls<br />
for it to continue.<br />
Guardian Anna Sparks said as<br />
soon as the initiative started, the<br />
guardians realised there was a<br />
“desperate need” for a “security<br />
presence” in the area.<br />
“The community has expressed<br />
to us a large increase in crime in<br />
the area in the last two to three<br />
years. We deal<br />
with about 20-25<br />
incidences per<br />
week and get<br />
one to two calls<br />
from different<br />
churches and<br />
businesses asking<br />
for our assistance<br />
in de-escalating<br />
various situations<br />
Anna<br />
Sparks<br />
which have been reported to the<br />
CCC.<br />
“Staff had been experiencing<br />
intimidation tactics from locals,<br />
unstable and intoxicated persons<br />
begging for money and doing<br />
drug deals right outside front<br />
doors.”<br />

Donovan hopes to get<br />
more funding for scheme<br />
• From page 1<br />
While Sparks said there is<br />
still concern about the number<br />
of incidents that occur, many<br />
businesses and organisations in<br />
the area have said they feel safer<br />
overall having the guardians act<br />
as a security measure.<br />
“We have businesses, like<br />
the op shop, which have<br />
said incidences of theft have<br />
decreased with the presence of<br />
the guardians. We’ve also caught<br />
about 10 people attempting theft<br />
at the Countdown and recovered<br />
about as many lots of stolen<br />
goods,” she said.<br />
Coastal Ward city councillor<br />
Celeste Donovan said it was<br />
hoped funding would be secured<br />
to keep the guardian initiative<br />
going after it is scheduled to end<br />
in March.<br />
The guardians began patrolling<br />
again in October after an<br />
eight year hiatus. They were<br />
established after the <strong>February</strong><br />
22, 2011 earthquake to patrol<br />
the New Brighton Mall area for<br />
about three years.<br />
Donovan said the feedback she<br />
has received about the guardians<br />
being back was “positive” and<br />
several businesses appreciated<br />
the extra point of contact and<br />
support.<br />
Sparks said the guardians<br />
communicated with police who<br />
backed them up when dealing<br />
with serious incidents.<br />
HAVE YOUR SAY:<br />

Brighton guardians<br />
initiative continue after<br />
March?<br />

“Our team is persistent in<br />
politely requesting that people<br />
move from the area if they plan<br />
to continue drinking, begging<br />
or harassing businesses trying to<br />
make a living,” said Sparks.<br />
“The need for extra security<br />
is still high in New Brighton.<br />
The behaviours we see out here<br />
are atrocious and it would be<br />
a shame for the initiative to be<br />
pulled, as if the guardians were<br />
to go, the crap would start back<br />
up again.<br />
“We’ve seen a massive change<br />
in the area with our presence<br />
and I do hope it continues.”<br />
The guardians wear hi-vis<br />
uniforms to be easily identified<br />
by the community and take<br />
turns patrolling the area on foot.<br />
Every registered business<br />
in the area has been given the<br />
guardians’ contact number and<br />
can ask for assistance when they<br />
are operating between Thursday-<br />
Sunday from 11am-6pm.<br />

Quake-damaged road littered with<br />
potholes reopens after initial works<br />
• By Sasha Watson<br />
PART OF New Brighton Rd is<br />
back to two lanes after work to<br />
fix long-standing pothole and<br />
flooding issues ended.<br />
A section between Lake Terrace<br />
Rd and the nearby pump<br />
station has been raised by 800-<br />
1000mm, resealed with chip seal,<br />
as well as asphalt sealing at the<br />
pump station entrance, and widened<br />
by two and a half metres.<br />
The work was needed because<br />
a section of road by the pump<br />
station slumped after three<br />
culverts separated as a result<br />
of the <strong>February</strong> 22, 2011<br />
earthquake.<br />
City council streets<br />
maintenance manager Steve Guy<br />
said the repair work had taken<br />
a long time because it was not a<br />
high priority.<br />
“We know this became a longstanding<br />
issue following the 2011<br />
Canterbury earthquakes. At the<br />
time, it had minimal impact and<br />
was not a high priority . . . it’s<br />
been great to get a permanent<br />
solution being delivered.<br />
“The culverts have been<br />
functioning, but not to their full<br />
capacity like before the quakes,<br />
so the slump has meant water<br />

“As drivers head through the<br />
water, it is forced under the road<br />
surface and that’s what causes<br />
the potholes to appear.”<br />
More repair work will start<br />
later this year and will include<br />
raising the next section.<br />

completed, the next section of<br />

it is good to see the upgrades<br />

nature of the road.<br />

Commonwealth Games<br />
Exhibition at New Brighton<br />
Museum ends this month<br />
The 50th anniversary major exhibition<br />
of the 1974 British Commonwealth Games<br />
has been a resounding hit with local,<br />
international, and countrywide travellers<br />
visiting the New Brighton Museum.<br />
Previously, the museum sent out a New<br />
Zealand wide request looking for any and<br />
all Games memorabilia to display in the<br />
five week exhibition. This resulted in a<br />
wide range of rare items from all over New<br />
Zealand.<br />
“We have some special treasures here,<br />
a lot of it which we get to keep as they<br />
have been donated permanently to the<br />
museum. But that’s the role of the museum<br />
is to collect this heritage stuff and actually<br />
preserve it for the future. We’re proud of<br />
what we have been able to achieve for the<br />
people of Christchurch who have come to<br />
see this event,” Museum president Wayne<br />
Hawker said and shared there has been<br />
huge interest in the exhibition as the Games<br />
were a significant moment in Christchurch’s<br />
history.<br />
Volunteers at the New Brighton Museum<br />
have painstakingly gathered hundreds of<br />
items over the past four months to help<br />
celebrate the city’s hosting of what was<br />
known as the ‘Friendly Games’.<br />
The comprehensive collection includes<br />
old autograph books, event medals, and on<br />
display during the weekends a rare Holden<br />
Kingswood used by Games officials, in<br />
addition to uniforms from the 1974 British<br />
Commonwealth Games.<br />
The British Commonwealth Games<br />
exhibition runs through until mid-<br />
<strong>February</strong>.<br />

Plenty of room for all in modern Kona<br />
THE EAGERLY anticipated<br />
second-generation version of<br />
Hyundai’s popular compact<br />
Kona urban SUV is bigger,<br />
bolder and more refined than its<br />
predecessor.<br />
All the usual effusive new<br />
vehicle descriptors were rolled<br />
out at the launch of this second<br />
generation Kona four months<br />
ago. Added to the mix are<br />
claims it sets a new compact<br />
SUV standard with its futuristic<br />
design and economical Hybrid<br />
variant that headlines with<br />
a spacious, versatile cabin<br />
featuring a clever ‘floating’<br />
horizontal dash and standard<br />
12.3-inch multimedia system.<br />
In short, these all add up to<br />
Motoring with Bob Nettleton<br />
this model being vastly superior<br />
across the board compared to its<br />
predecessor. It addresses several<br />
niggles people had with that, not<br />
the least of these was a lack of<br />
cabin and load space, and benign<br />
styling, that had all the appeal of<br />
an old woolly jumper. This is in<br />
stark contrast to the sharp clean<br />
and contemporary lines of its<br />
successor.<br />
While all new in most areas,<br />
the status quo has been retained<br />
under the bonnet – the engines<br />
largely carry over from the<br />
outgoing model, with an aging<br />
2.0-litre petrol, plus 1.6 turbo,<br />
and 1.6 Hybrid variants. The 1.6<br />
AWD turbo receives a healthy<br />
power upgrade from 123kW<br />
Ratings out of 10: Performance 7; Handling 8; Build<br />
Quality 8; Comfort 8; Passenger and Load Space 8; Styling<br />
7; Value for money 6; Safety – Five Star ANCAP crash rating.<br />
Average fuel consumption on road test, 4.7L/100km<br />
Overall points out of 10: 8<br />
to 146kW. For now though it<br />
is a six model affair starting<br />
at $42,990 for the entry level<br />
2.0-litre petrol Active and<br />
topping out at a lofty $65,990 for<br />
the Limited N-Line being test<br />
driven here.<br />
In the engine compartment<br />
the hybrid system is matched<br />
to a naturally aspirated 1.6-litre<br />
petrol engine with a battery<br />
electric system. With 104kW and<br />
265Nm of torque, flexibility is<br />
the vehicle’s performance forte.<br />
For the most part the test<br />
vehicle is driven using the petrol<br />
engine, with an electric motor –<br />
powered by a 1.32kW/h battery<br />
– chipping in with a handy<br />
additional 32kW and 170Nm<br />
as required. I was surprised at<br />
how far the test vehicle would<br />
run in electric mode in aroundtown<br />
driving at speeds of up<br />
to 50km/h without a helping<br />
hand from the petrol motor.<br />
Performance is less convincing<br />
on steeper up hill grinds if<br />
the vehicle is under load. Also<br />
climbing at the same time is<br />
engine noise. A smooth and<br />
well-sorted 6-speed automatic<br />
does everything that’s asked<br />
of it across a range of different<br />
driving situations.<br />
There is plenty to enjoy<br />
and room to do it thanks to a<br />
noticeably larger cabin and more<br />
voluminous rear cargo hatch.<br />
Rear leg and headroom is vastly<br />
superior. Second-row shoulder<br />
room (1,402mm) is also among<br />
the largest in its class.<br />
All models feature alloy wheels<br />
as standard, LED headlights and<br />
taillights, and dual-zone climate<br />
controlled air conditioning. Top<br />
shelf variants such as the Limited<br />
N-line have additional touches<br />
such as an 8-speaker premium<br />
audio system and power tailgate.<br />
Latest in-car connectivity and<br />
technology is expertly showcased<br />
on a 10-inch touchscreen<br />
multimedia system.<br />
The underpinnings are<br />
conventional with MacPherson<br />
strut front suspension with<br />
a multi-link rear end. In the<br />
transition to this model, the<br />
suspension has benefitted from<br />
further refinements, such as<br />
redesigned rear suspension<br />
mounting bushes, and retuning<br />
the springs for improved ride<br />
comfort. On the downside, road<br />
noise especially over coarse chip<br />
seal is more intrusive than you<br />
would expect from a premium<br />
priced model.<br />
