OPINION: Of all my teenage embarrassments, one of the most character-building was having to wear a plastic rubbish bag as a raincoat during a school camp at Nelson Lakes. I may have been a kid who went without, but, if there’s one thing I’ve learned over the years, it’s that outdoor adventure is a great leveller. For this seed of wisdom I can thank a particular Marlborough Girls’ College teacher, Mr Rees. On that school camp, he sparked a love of te taiao/the natural world that grows ever-stronger still. And maybe it’s just nostalgia, but Nelson Lakes is the place where I feel that mauri the most.
Two trampers have been airlifted to safety after getting into trouble in the Nelson region. The Nelson Marlborough Rescue Helicopter responded to two callouts on Sunday, both involving trampers who had set off their emergency locator beacons. Pilot Barry McAuliffe said the first callout happened about 10am when a 17-year-old woman suffered an ankle injury near Speargrass Hut (altitude 1060m) at Nelson Lakes. McAuliffe said the woman had been tramping with a group of people, and was flown to the Mt Robert car park near Lake Rotoiti where she received treatment.

number two, i take a look at the salt lake utah editorial there, and it s interesting. and what my friend on the other side did not mentions is that for the first two paragraphs, they mentioned mitt romney s executive experience, they praised his executive experience when it came to the olympics and so forth, and then, rightfully so, they did transition to his lack of principles, according to them. but at the end of the day, utah is going to go for governor romney. there s no question about it. at the end of the day, this is not about newspaper endorsements. this is about the economy. and when you take a look at every single poll, one that you just mentioned a few moments ago, richard, every single poll suggests that independents are not only leaning towards mitt romney, but they re at least open to this conversation. but, robert, they do have some influence here, robert, in certain areas, and all three of us know this quite well. there are swing counties that can swing the states. s
