Boy, 2, killed in South Auckland driveway
Relevant offers
A devastated grandfather has spoken of his heartbreak at seeing his two-year-old grandson run over and killed on his driveway.
Brody Whiunui was hit by a van in Orpheus Pl, Papakura, at the home of his grandfather, Raymond Collins, 48, about 7.30pm last night.
"Everybody is blaming themselves, I should have done this, I could have done that, shouldn't have been there," a grieving Collins said this morning.
He spoke in front of his state house, down a quiet cul-de-sac, as family and neighbours mourned nearby.
"My kids, the mokos, are safe here, they are always watched, and unfortunately, he was just... he shouldn't have been there.
"I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy.
"You can be as vigilant as humanly possible and it will never be enough.
"I've got 13 grandchildren...only 12 now."
Collins said the family were shocked at some media reports the family had been having a party.
He said Brody's family were visiting his grandmother, who had been diagnosed with breast cancer.
Some had been drinking beer, he said, but the driver had been breath-tested at the police station and passed.
"He was on the blind side and in the wrong place... damn shit luck. I don't want to use the term, but it was a tragic accident. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Little Brody was "brilliant" Collins said.
"He was only two, but he was the most intelligent two-year-old I've ever known in my life. He used to run rings around me, and I consider myself clever.
"He made an impact on everybody, he was a lovely kid.
"He had his whole life in front of him and he was already in fifth gear at the age of two."
Collins said the family had dealt with a lot of deaths recently, but this was the worst.
"I lost my mum, and it didn't hurt me as much as this, this is killing us."
The police serious crash unit was investigating the boy's death.
Last week Safekids New Zealand, the national child injury prevention service, said spring and summer were the trauma seasons with a high rate of driveway injuries.
"Every two weeks a child is hospitalised with serious injuries received from a vehicle driving on a private driveway in New Zealand," Safekids director Ann Weaver said.
"A further five children are killed annually, on average.
"Children at risk are aged between one and three years old.
"Sadly parents and close relatives are most often at the wheel," she said.

Cyber age police-search powers bill passes first reading
Cyber Warfare 300.
(photo credit:Rick Wilking/Reuters)
The Justice Ministry announced on Thursday that a major reordering of law enforcement's powers to search suspects, their residences and their technological devices, an attempt to bring enforcement into the cyber age, passed its first reading in the Knesset.The proposed bill, which passed on Monday, would in some instances be a radical departure from previous limits on searches.Major innovations include allowing certain searches based on concern that crimes will be committed, searching people who are not suspected of committing crimes themselves, and searching people's residences without their knowledge.The ministry emphasized that the bill balances new, more effective techniques for investigating and catching criminals with respect for privacy rights.But Anne Suciu from ACRI, the Association for Civil Rights in Israel, slammed the bill as "ruining" prior "reforms of police power with respect to performing searches, demanding that citizens produce documents and objects during interrogations" and "perform searches on computerized material."She said the bill is a slippery slope toward "trampling on privacy rights" of the individual.Possibly the most powerful new search power is the police right to search people's residences without letting them know about it.This power is limited to suspicions of severe crimes that would endanger lives or peace.The Jerusalem Post has learned that this sort of search is already permitted sometimes, and the new bill could be viewed as creating stronger transparency requirements to defend privacy rights and to better specify the factors a judge must consider in issuing such a search warrant.ACRI said that such clandestine searches of people's homes would mean that Israel is no longer a free country, and said that the search is of the "most invasive kind" and "prevents a person any possibility of defending himself from the unjustified harm to his rights."Searches on grounds of concern about crimes not yet committed would require the approval of a chief superintendent or other higher-ranking police officials.This kind of search, as well as searching people's homes without their knowledge, would require sending a report to the attorney-general on the matter.With the future crimes search provisions evoking some extreme measures, ACRI said that searches based future estimates of what crimes people would commit would be based on very flimsy foundations.

Four-junction, four-terminal solar cell reaches 43.9 percent efficiency
April 29, 2014 // Paul Buckley
Semprius, Inc., has manufactured the first four-junction, four-terminal stacked solar cell which is capable of achieving a efficiency level of 43.9 percent by using the company's proprietary micro transfer printing process.
To achieve the world-class efficiency perfomance Semprius collaborated with Professor John Rogers and his team at the Frederick Seitz Materials Research Laboratory at the University of Illinois art Urbana-Champaign and researchers at Solar Junction , a leading III-V high-efficiency solar cell manufacturer and important Semprius partner.
Initial trials yielded solar cells with measured efficiencies up to 43.9 percent. The company claims the process is capable of achieving solar cell efficiencies greater than 50 percent in the near future.
The new stacked solar cell is comprised of a three-junction microcell that is stacked on top of a single-junction germanium microcell using Semprius' high-speed micro transfer printing process, which enables the simultaneous formation of thousands of stacked microcells with high yields. By using four junctions, the stacked cell is able to capture light across a broader portion of the solar spectrum and therefore achieve efficiencies much higher than conventional silicon and thin-film single-junction solar cells.
A key achievement of the project was the development of a new interfacial material that is placed between the top and bottom cell to minimize optical losses within the stack and thereby optimize overall conversion efficiency. In addition, the new stacked cell has four terminals, rather than the standard two to reduce the spectral dependence of the solar cell and increase the solar cell's energy yield under normal operation in the field.
In 2012, Semprius announced the first mass-produced photovoltaic module that exceeded 33 percent efficiency. In September 2013, Semprius increased this record to 35.5 percent, as confirmed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE in Germany
Scott Burroughs, vice president of Technology at Semprius, said: "Because the process we used is fully compatible with our current production processes, we believe this demonstration can be easily transferred to manufacturing."

Counting the days to Christmas nest-sharing
Empty nester Jeanne Beker is looking forward Yukon-adventuring youngest daughter's Christmas visit home
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Like a kid with a chocolate advent calendar, I'm counting the days. December has always been filled with anticipation for me, but this time it's different.
Except for my shaggy dog and sweet cat, I've been rambling around this big old house on my own for months now, seeing the world through a wobbly new lens. It's not one I'm fond of. Not yet anyway. But I'm determined to get the focus right eventually so I can feel truly happy about this business of living alone in a city my girls have abandoned.
Bekky and her hubby are thriving in Montreal, savouring la vie Bohème, and because my business takes me there often, I get to hang with them. But I miss Joey like crazy: My baby bravely spread her wings in August and flew the coop all the way to Dawson City, Yukon, intent on attending art school there. Judging from her exotic Instagram pics, what she's really learning about is the art of life.
I drink in the imagery she posts of the great, white north: glorious sunsets and frozen tundras; candlelit quinzees and broken down snowmobiles; a place inhabited by sled dogs and lumberjacks. There she is, in minus 40 weather, wearing not the cool new Canada Goose coat I sent her (which she sent back!), but the old, dusty rose wool Inuit parka she bought at a Kensington Market vintage store last year — authentic, romantic, nowhere near warm enough.
Still, she soldiers on, bundled up in a handknit toque and scarf, staring at me through long frozen eyelashes, as she witnesses a world light years away from the Rosedale neighbourhood where she was raised. Her pictures reveal "art school" hands — fingers stained with ink and paint, sometimes covered in clay. And then there are her beloved culinary projects, reviving her grandmother's recipe for banana bread, baking challah and gingerbread cookies shaped like moustaches.
Every once in a while, Joey reminds me of the music that's such an important part of her life. I gaze at her photo of a country jam session in the wee local watering hole dubbed "The Pit," complete with bearded man on slide guitar and moose antlers on the wall. I envision Joey performing at the open microphones there, and speculate how her own musical style may have changed. She's also taken up archery, learned to play crib, and made a varied assortment of friends.
"Mum — age is irrelevant here. I hang out with 17-year-olds and 40-year-olds," she explains. Evidently, in a small community like Dawson City, it's all about a mindset. Joey tells me she loves her cozy existence there. Perhaps it's a way of thumbing her nose at that urban jungle I inhabit.
Her newfound contentment fills me at once with joy and despair. How can't a mother be elated to hear her child is happy? Then again, what if she stays there for good? Whatever her motives, Joey's proving that she's embraced the business of growing up with aplomb. "You may be on the greatest adventure of all time," one of her friends writes on Instagram. "Sure feels like it," responds Joey.
People might assume I'd raised girls who live for labels and designer fare — perfectly coiffed and manicured young ladies who aspire to follow in my footsteps, and cruise through high fashion climes. As much as it sometimes scares me, I'm proud to say, "Not at all."
My daughters are adamant about blazing their own trails. And as freaked as I am about the far-flung reaches their passions may eventually lead them to, I admit their disparate paths inspire the hell out of me.
So here I sit at my computer on yet another lonely night, having just assembled my new living room furniture. I figure giving the house a minor facelift will not only lift my spirits, but show my kids that I, too, am forging ahead, taking full ownership of my life as they get on with theirs.
I also bought a jolly wreath for the front door, instructed my gardener to put up the lights, and met with the caterer about my impending holiday party. I'm gathering up every ounce of my enthusiasm and keeping the homefires burning, imagining the song and laughter, great food, good friends, and warm vibes that are bound to fill our house in the coming weeks.
And I'm wondering what the old Toronto homestead will really feel like to my exotic Yukon adventurer when she returns. I know her visit will be temporary, but I'm anticipating the joy of sharing my nest once again, wanting the holidays to be so picture perfect, I can almost taste them. In the meantime, I'm counting the days.

In a movie review on August 5, 2014 entitled The Other Guys of the Marvel Universe., F. C. Schaefer wrote, "I must admit when I heard they were making a movie of GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY, I had very low expectations for a film about a bunch of D-listers from the Marvel Universe; ones so far down that many fans had to think for moment to remember where this group fit in the Marvel pantheon of heroes.Now, after seeing the movie, I am more than glad to say that I was wrong, for GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY turns out to be everything you'd want in a summer blockbuster and more.While the plot of GUARDIANS is a comic book staple-ragtag group of misfits must band together to keep an all powerful McGuffian (an orb containing an Infinity jewel) from falling into the hands of a super villain-it is the cast and the characters, more than anything, that make GUARDIANS not just another big screen comic book epic.Chris Pratt, best known from TV's PARKS AND RECREATION, is Peter Quill, or as he would like to be called, Star Lord, the self appointed leader of the group. Quill was kidnapped from…"

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire [HD]
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire [HD], directed by Francis Lawrence, featuring Jennifer Lawrence and Josh Hutcherson, now currently holds spot #3 and is considered among the Top Online Movie Rentals by many people. Let's see what viewers had to say:
In a movie review on November 22, 2013 entitled An Incredibly Faithful, Mind-blowing Adaptation, Amazon Customer wrote, "Wow. Just, wow. I went to see Catching Fire last night after a year and a half long wait and I can honestly say, it was 100% worth it. Please go see this movie. You will not be disappointed. The director, Francis Lawrence, did a fantastic job expanding the world of Panem while keeping true to the tone set by the first movie. The first half of the movie, the victory tour and events leading up to the Quarter Quell, may feel a little bit rushed, but all the important details are there. The arena is colossal, so much better on screen than in my mind. The music, which I paid particular attention to since I loved the first film's score, was moving and fit perfectly in every scene. For book fans, there are a few minor details left out, but the amount of content taken directly from the book is amazing. Much of the dialogue (although not all) is taken straight from the book, word-for-word. This was probably my favorite part of the whole movie. And I need not add that the casting was phenomenal…"

Under the Skin [HD]
Under the Skin [HD], directed by Jonathan Glazer, featuring Scarlett Johansson and , enjoys a ranking of #4 and this week is being voted up as one of the top movie rentals. Let's see what others had to say:
In a movie review on June 28, 2014 entitled Disturbing, Haunting and Poignant, Corey Lidster wrote, "I'd heard various reactions to this film before watching it, some very positive, some negative, both commenting on how confusing and strange it was. David Lynch's 'Eraserhead' was the most popular comparison. While I think any attempts at comparison are going to fall well short of the mark, I'll say that 'Under the Skin' is a slow-burning SF-Horror film that's closer to Kubrick's meditative pace on '2001′, with the realistic, semi-improvised dialogue of Gus Van Sant's 'Elephant' and 'Gerry'.{**SPOILERS**}Scarlett Johanssen plays one of two aliens who has taken human form. Just how alien they are cannot be fully appreciated until the second or third 'seduction'. After picking up a stranger in her non-descript van, she brings him to a dilapidated rural house. Leading her would-be suitor into utter blackness, she leaves a trail of clothes behind as she undresses; the unfortunate victim stumbles forward, oblivious to the impossible metamorphosis of the floor beneath his…"

Frozen (Plus Bonus Features) [HD], directed by Chris Buck, featuring Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel, now finds itself at #5 on our list of top online movie rentals .
In a movie review on January 5, 2014 entitled Unexpected Excellence, ScotFlower wrote, "I went to the theater expecting the usual dumb kids movie, and was blown away.I LOVED this film and instantly added the DVD to my wishlist.Honestly, my favorite movies are The Hunt for the Red October, Galaxy Quest, Pixar's Incredibles, Princess Bride, Ponyo, Sound of Music, and Lord of the Rings Extended Editions.I gravitate to no particular genre, but only to what I find are the absolute best movies.Frozen is up there with the best movies I have ever seen. Period.Why is this film so good?1. It teaches real love.Love is about putting the other person's needs first.Love is shown in your actions not your words.I am so floored that a kids movie actually taught this and even took the time to point out you never get engaged or married to a guy you just met.WOW… a Disney film not about being swept off your feet by a guy in 3 seconds?Its about time.2. The side kick characters are not annoying…. seriously!!Its like the difference…"

Maleficent (Theatrical)
Maleficent (Theatrical), directed by Robert Stromberg, featuring Angelina Jolie and Sharlto Copley, has achieved a rating of #6 and thus is one of the top 10 movie rentals. Is it a good movie? Well, here is a recent review:
In a movie review on May 29, 2014 entitled Not Your Usual "Sleeping Beauty" and Quite Magnificent, Ranny Levy wrote, "Maleficent is a remake of the Disney classic "Sleeping Beauty." I assumed that I knew what it was going to be about but, it turned out to be a totally unpredictable and amazing movie. Maleficent is about a betrayed fairy (Angelina Jolie) that curses the king's infant daughter Aurora as revenge. She soon discovers that when Aurora grows up, she is the only one who can restore the peace and happiness that everyone needs to get them out of the depression caused by revenge and war. This movie takes "Sleeping Beauty" and turns it into a completely different movie.By far, this is the best Disney movie I've seen and one of the best movies I've seen in a while. Everything is just right. For example, the music sets the right mood in every scene. It is strong and loud when it needs to be and quite and shy at other times and, at certain points, it is playful and happy. It really pulls the whole movie together. Along with the jaw-dropping music, this movie has…"

Nebraska [HD]
Nebraska [HD], directed by Alexander Payne, featuring Bruce Dern and Will Forte, now finds itself at #7 on our list of top online movie rentals .
In a movie review on December 21, 2013 entitled A very good film and a look at modern Americana, M. Oleson wrote, "Theatrical review.There may be spoilers.Director Alexander Payne delivers another piece of Americana and like his 2004 film "Sideways," it's a road tripper.Early on one is reminded of Peter Bogdonovich's "The Last Picture Show."The vast landscapes of the great plains of Montana, South Dakota and ultimately Nebraska replace flat and dusty north Texas, but like the 1971 masterpiece, Payne chooses to shoot in black and white.Aging and on the cusp of dementia, Woody Grant (wonderfully played by Bruce Dern) believes he has won a million dollars.He's received one of the Publisher's Clearing House promotions and is determined to get from his home in Billings to Lincoln in order to collect his winnings.His cranky wife, Kate (award-worthy June Squibb) won't take him so he makes a couple failed attempts at walking.His youngest son David (Will Forte) finally agrees to take him, just to keep him from wondering off on his own.Along the way, Woody falls in his…"

The Fifth Element [HD]
The Fifth Element [HD], directed by Luc Besson, featuring Bruce Willis and Gary Oldman, resides at #8 on our list and is considered by many as the top movie rental today. Do you consider this a great show? Read what others think and view a trailer below!
In a movie review on July 2, 2007 entitled Great movie finally remastered, SRFireside "ZOOM!" wrote, "This is a really fun, fun movie. It's not the beat all of science fiction as it was hyped when it was released, but it certainly is a good combination high adventure, situation comedy, cyberpunk, and Bruce Willis gun fighting action. Doesn't make sense? Don't worry. I'll explain.High adventure comes from the plot: save the earth from evil by finding some mystic items and a perfect human before the appointed zero hour. That much is obvious. Cyberpunk explains in a way the setting of the futuristic urban scenes, which are fantastically portrayed in this movie. All of the settings and technology were impressive as well as stylish. The special effects were well above average and in many scenes very impressive, but a situation comedy? You got it. I won't get into the details. I will say there are quite a few scenes that involve the kind of subplots you find in sitcoms. This is a good thing by the way. A lesser movie would mess this up. Director Luc Besson made all of these…"

In a movie review on October 4, 2010 entitled Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory BLU-RAY, Hollywood wrote, "I won't bore you with yet another "review" of this film or my personal opinion of it. You want to know what I think of the BD version, right?My short answer: This BD looks and sounds so good that I've already given away my DVD of it.The Blu-ray Disc of Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory is the best I have ever seen of the film. Image quality is sharp & clean and the colors stand out like candy. The DolbyTrueHD sound is excellent allowing all the dialogue and songs to come through crystal-clear.This BD case is like a book with many pages for the fans. My ONLY (small) regret is that the back cover containing all the BD information is not printed on the book, and instead is merely a printed page that eventually comes loose and detaches after a short while (whereas my "Easy Rider" BD is the same type of book and the information is printed on the back cover - much better!).If you like (or love) this movie and are wondering if the BD is worth…"

Suits of Woe
Suits of Woe now currently holds spot #10 and is considered among the Top Online Movie Rentals by many people. Let's see what viewers had to say:
In a movie review on September 18, 2014 entitled Hard, mean, old and evil…, Pamela Harris wrote, "I started asking myself last season "Why am I doing this to myself?" as I cringed through episode after episode. Yet I keep watching. Maybe that's the mark of a good show, I don't know. I think that I am watching this season because I want to see Gemma get her due. For all her talk of family, family, family, and how she loves, loves, loves her family, she has caused more pain and destruction to her beloved family than a stranger who set out purposely to destroy them ever could have. Yet she continues to tell herself that she loves what's left of them and only wants to protect them. She's clearly a psychopath and is beginning to look like one. I don't know what hair and makeup are doing with her, it's subtle, but she looks hard, mean, old and evil already this season.It's hard to believe that Jimmy Smits would come back to her, but that must be something that has to happen to push the story forward.0″

Explosion in Washington state business district
An explosion and fire has destroyed or damaged several businesses east of Seattle.
An explosion and fire has destroyed or damaged several businesses east of Seattle.
Eastside Fire and Rescue spokesman Wes Collins says there have been two minor injuries. Firefighters are searching damaged buildings in North Bend, but they don't expect anyone was inside at the time.
Collins tells KING the blast may have been caused by a natural gas leak at a pizza restaurant reportedly under renovation.
A dispatcher says there were multiple calls and automated alarms at 3:41 a.m. Friday.
The fire has reportedly burned a barber shop and damage is visible at a gas station, tire store and grocery. Debris is scattered over a wide area.
North Bend residents report being awakened by a blast that shook their homes.
North Bend is about 30 miles east of Seattle.

Perfect dinners in a pinch with 316 quick-and-easy recipes!
It is recommended to thaw frozen poultry in the refrigerator. Plan on 24 hours for every 5 pounds. For example, a 20-pound turkey will need to thaw in the refrigerator for 4 days.
Cold-water thawing is an option that takes less time but more attention. The poultry must be in a leakproof bag such as its original tightly sealed wrapper or a plastic bag. Immerse the wrapped poultry in cold tap water. Check the water frequently to be sure it stays cold. Change the water every 30 minutes until the bird is thawed. For this method, allow 30 minutes for every pound.
Make sure whole birds are completely thawed before stuffing and/or roasting, or the roasting times will need to be increased and internal temperature checked often.
Remove giblets (heart, gizzard and liver) that are usually stored in a packet in the neck area of the bird. Use for the preparation of broth if desired. Remove and discard any large pockets of fat that may be present in the neck area.
Rinse the bird inside and out with cold water. Pat dry with paper towels. Place on non-wood surface.
Rub the inside cavity and neck area with salt.
If you don't plan to stuff a whole chicken or turkey, place 1 to 2 cups total of chopped celery,…

*** assid hasn't targeted Israel, is what I ment to ask not egypt
September 6, 2013 at 8:44am
I really want the blaze to make a fully fact based report covering the Syrian conflict. not saying the other reports a non-fact based, maybe comprehensive report would be better.
I have heard reports lately about assid protecting Christian settlements throughout the conflict. isn't he a radical islamist ally of Iran? what's the truth here. we know how the muslem brotherhood treats Christians (alla Egypt)
whats assiads stance on Israel. we know the MB's stance on Israel (again from Egypt). as far as I know assiad hasn't targeted Egypt (again facts are hard to come by as opposed to rumor)
I ask these questions because I oppose us intervention on behalf of the rebels. I have for a long time belived that we should not be involved at all but rumor and stories like this make me ask my self if we are not on the wrong side entirely.
a comprehensive fact (not supposition or rumor) based report is needed.
love the blaze. keep up the good work

well, after vomiting over the fact that i stand on the same side of an issue as codepink, i came to realize that at least the wackos on the far left can agree with us that the president dosent have the power to unilaterally assassinate a us citizen on american soil.
While i am glad that the traitorous filth al-Aulaqi is dead i despise the manner in which he was killed.
He should have been tried and executed for treasion, not killed while having breakfast. As per our constitution even filth such as he deserves his day in court.

Gov.-elect Bob McDonnell wants the federal government to move forward with offshore energy exploration off of Virginia's coast.
In a letter to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, McDonnell argued against any further delay in an offshore lease sale scheduled for 2011. The Republican contends the exploration for oil and natural gas resources in an environmentally responsible manner is important in this down economy.
In the letter released Tuesday, McDonnell points to a 2005 Old Dominion University forecast that offshore natural gas production alone would create more than 2,500 jobs over a 10-year period, and generate $7.8 billion in capital investments.
The study also estimated the lease area contains up to 500 million barrels of oil.

Recent Kailua-Kona reviews
"This is our second stay at Kona Reef-our first time in this unit. Beautiful view of the ocean off the lanai. The unit had everything we needed. Well stocked with kitchen utensils, detergent, paper products, etc. Lots of other extras such as boogie boards, beach chairs, beach towels. This unit was very quiet. Easy walking distance to shops and restaurants. Enjoyed the wonderful sunsets from the lawn area just on the other side of the pool. Short drive (less than 4 miles) to Kahalu"u state beach which is an excellent snorkel beach, as well as 2 step or Pu'uhonua state park (about 35 miles) which is another good snorkeling area. Took a guided snorkeling boat ride to Kealakekua Bay to snorkel, also. This is our 5th trip to the Big Island and we are always discovering new places to go. We would highly recommend staying in this condo and would rent again when returning. The owner got back to us quickly when requesting information. The rental process went very smoothly and orderly."Guest: D.G. Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: September 1, 2014View listing
"This is such a beautiful condo! The ocean front views are priceless. The owners put a lot of TLC into this condo and it shows. It is also walking distance to many restaurants, shops, beach, etc. It is truly a gem. This is where we stay each time we come to Kona. Mahalo to the owners for sharing their piece of paradise with us."Guest: Val Date of Stay: September 2014 Review Submitted: October 10, 2014View listing
"The house is beautiful and very clean. It is so much nicer than the pictures show. The only bad thing is that there is quiet time from 8 pm-8 am. Just sitting on the lanai having our coffee at 6:30 am our first morning got us a note on the front door about neighbor complaints! We are in our mid 50's and are not loud people. Imagine being in Hawaii and feeling like you have to be confined to the inside of the house during those quiet hours, or be very careful to be at a near whisper. There is no way children or teenagers would do well at this home, no matter how well behaved they are. Otherwise, the house was great. If quiet is very important to you, then this is the house for you."Guest: Mary M. Date of Stay: May 2014 Review Submitted: June 18, 2014View listing
"Had a great week in Kona. The new tile in the condo was a nice addition, we didn't expect it because they weren't in the pictures. We were very comfortable there and truly enjoy the ability to walk directly over to the beach…… About 50 feet away. We also loved the fact that the pool has a nice view of the ocean, and we also BBQ'd out by the pool several nights. We meet some great people there, everybody was so nice. We even got to play tennis (thanks for leaving behind the racquets). I can't say enough about how wonderful your place was. We will definitely be back next year. Thanks so much!!!!!!"Guest: Michael S. Date of Stay: December 2013 Review Submitted: February 14, 2014View listing

It may have been Silver Fern netballer Katrina Grant's first task as a Child Cancer ambassador, but the day was all about Alex Anstis.
Yesterday, the youngster celebrated her last chemotherapy session at a party attended by Grant, a member of the Central Pulse team. Wearing a beaded necklace and bracelet that she made herself, Alex can now get back to the business of being a 5-year-old.
Grant was making her first appearance as the new Child Cancer Foundation Ambassador for Wellington.
"I thought it would be a great thing to be part of, something where I can give back."
Alex's acute lymphoblastic leukaemia was diagnosed in 2010.
After more than two years of chemotherapy treatments, she is now in remission and free to exchange hospital waiting rooms for quality time with her pony Molly.
Alex's mother, Louise Hight, said the family's lives had revolved around chemotherapy treatments.
"I'm just looking forward to her turning into a normal little girl."
Although Alex was in remission, it would be five years before she could be said to be cured of leukaemia.
Chemotherapy had left her with leg cramps, nausea and fatigue, and she could not play with other children if they were unwell.
A thousand beads hang on strings in Alex's room - one bead for each of her treatments.
