GOOD EVENING, EVERYBODY. WELCOME WINTER SUNSHINE FOR LARGE CHUNKS OF AOTEAROA TODAY, BUT GRAB YOUR FUR-LINED PARKAS IN THE SOUTH. A FEISTY LITTLE FRONTAL PORCUPINE IS CLIMBING OUT OF THE SOUTH SEAS TO DUST THE SOUTHERN PASSES WITH SNOW TONIGHT. AND THE NORTH COPS A GOOD DOLLOP OF RAIN TOMORROW NIGHT FROM THE SAME SYSTEM. WHAT'S UP FOR YOU ` JUST AHEAD. RIGHT NOW, IT'S 6 O'CLOCK. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF ONE NEWS WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. THE EX-ARMY MAN SHOT DEAD BY POLICE ON AUCKLAND'S MOTORWAY. DETAILS ON A CASE THAT BEGAN IN OPOTIKI. NEW PICTURES OF A DEADLY PLUNGE. NOW WE'VE HEROIC STORIES OF WHAT THE FLIGHT CREW DID TO HELP PASSENGERS. A PLANE LABELLED A 'DEATHTRAP'. WE REVEAL THE MULTIMILLION DOLLAR ACTION OUR GOVERNMENT'S TAKING. AND STEVEN ADAMS' SHOT AT STARDOM. WE'RE COURTSIDE FOR HIS DEBUT IN BASKETBALL'S BIG TIME. WE CAN NOW TELL YOU THE 20-YEAR-OLD SHOT DEAD BY POLICE ON AUCKLAND'S MOTORWAY WAS KICKED OUT OF THE ARMY. THE DEFENCE FORCE HAS CONFIRMED THE BACKGROUND OF CALEB DEAN HENRY. THE OPOTIKI MAN WAS KILLED AT THE END OF A 350KM CHASE, WHICH STARTED IN BAY OF PLENTY. WITH MORE, HERE'S KATE LYNCH. CALEB DEAN HENRY WAS AN EX-SOLDIER, BOOTED OUT OF THE ARMY LAST YEAR FOR DISCIPLINARY REASONS. HE WAS ALSO THE MAN THAT LED POLICE ON A DANGEROUS CHASE, ENDING WITH A SHOOTOUT NORTH OF AUCKLAND. AS A RESULT OF INJURIES SUFFERED DIRECTLY AFTER THAT EXCHANGE OF FIRE, POLICE HAVE THEN MOVED FORWARD, AND THEY'VE ATTEMPTED TO APPLY FIRST AID ` I BELIEVE FOR UP TO 25 MINUTES BEFORE AMBULANCE TOOK OVER, BUT HE'S SUBSEQUENTLY DIED. EARLIER IN THE EVENING, POLICE BELIEVE HE STABBED AN ELDERLY COUPLE IN THEIR BAY OF PLENTY HOME. BOTH OF THEM HAVE ENDED UP BEING CONFRONTED BY A MAN WITH A KNIFE, AND THEY'VE BOTH SUFFERED INJURIES AS A RESULT AND BOTH HAVE BEEN TIED UP. BUT THE DRAMA DIDN'T END THERE. POLICE SAY THE MAN STOLE THE COUPLE'S UTE AND A HIGH-POWERED HUNTING RIFLE AND LED THEM ON A 350KM CHASE. POLICE SPOTTED HIM CROSSING THE KAIMAI RANGES AROUND 10.30. HE OUTRAN THEM AND LED OFFICERS TOWARDS ROTORUA BEFORE CHANGING DIRECTION AND HEADING NORTH. POLICE SAY HE FIRED ON THEM FROM THE SPEEDING VEHICLE AT HAMILTON, SOUTH AUCKLAND AND IN THE VICTORIA PARK TUNNEL IN AUCKLAND. POLICE USED ROAD SPIKES, AND THE UTE EVENTUALLY CAME TO A STOP AT 2 O'CLOCK, JUST NORTH OF THE SUNSET OVERBRIDGE. IT'S THEN, POLICE SAY, THE MAN CRASHED INTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND STARTED FIRING ON THREE POLICE CARS THAT SURROUNDED HIM. POLICE SAY THEY RETURNED FIRE, AND THE MAN WAS HIT WHILE STILL INSIDE THE VEHICLE. YOU'VE HAD A MAN OBVIOUSLY WITH A HIGH-POWERED HUNTING RIFLE WHO, WHEN THE VEHICLES HAVE COME TO A STANDSTILL, HAS BEEN ABLE TO FIRE ON THEM. OBVIOUSLY, THEY'VE HAD TO DEFEND THEMSELVES AND BRING THE INCIDENT TO AN END, AND THAT IS WHAT HAS OCCURRED. THE POLICE ASSOCIATION SAYS THE POLICE ASSOCIATION SAYS IT'S IMPORTANT THE PUBLIC SUPPORT THE OFFICER WHO PULLED THE TRIGGER. EVERY NZER WILL SEE THAT THE ACTIONS OF THESE OFFICERS WERE NECESSARY, JUSTIFIED AND INEVITABLE FROM THE ACTIONS OF THE OFFENDER. CALEB HENRY'S BODY IS NOW WITH THE CORONER. ON HIS BEBO ACCOUNT FOUR YEARS AGO, MR HENRY SAID GUNS DON'T KILL PEOPLE ` PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE. HIS DEATH IS NOW THE SUBJECT OF THREE INVESTIGATIONS, INCLUDING ONE LOOKING AT WHY HIS LIFE ENDED SO TRAGICALLY. KATE LYNCH, ONE NEWS. THE COUPLE ATTACKED IN THEIR OPOTIKI HOME, ANNE AND ALAN LOONEY, ARE STILL RECOVERING FROM THEIR INJURIES IN HOSPITAL. AND, AS MATT MCLEAN HAS LEARNED, IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME THEY'VE BEEN TARGETED. THIS IS THE RURAL PROPERTY OF ANNE AND ALAN LOONEY. FROM THE OUTSIDE, FEW SIGNS THAT SOMETHING BAD TOOK PLACE HERE. TO HAVE SOMEONE ENTER YOUR HOME AND DO THAT IS... YEAH, IT'S RIGHT OUT OF CHARACTER FOR WHAT THIS PLACE IS LIKE. TODAY WE COULD SEE POLICE FORENSIC OFFICERS AT THE HOUSE, TRYING TO PIECE TOGETHER LAST NIGHT'S EVENTS THAT LEFT THE COUPLE, WHO ARE IN THEIR 60S, HOSPITALISED AND TRAUMATISED. THEY'RE VERY SHAKEN UP, BUT, LOOK, THE FAMILY ARE SUPPORTING THEM, VICTIM SUPPORT ARE LOOKING AFTER THEM, AND THEY'RE JUST ASKING FOR SOME PRIVACY. IT'S UNDERSTOOD ALAN LOONEY RETURNED HOME TO FIND AN INTRUDER TYING UP HIS WIFE, ANNE. THE MAN THEN FLED WITH THE COUPLE'S UTE, A HIGH-POWERED RIFLE AND CREDIT CARDS. THE COUPLE WERE TAKEN HERE, TO WHAKATANE HOSPITAL. THEY BOTH RECEIVED SURGERY FOR MINOR INJURIES TO THEIR HANDS, BUT ARE NOW IN A STABLE CONDITION AND ARE EXPECTED TO REMAIN HERE OVERNIGHT. A FAMILY MEMBER I SPOKE TO SAID THEY'RE BOTH TOUGH AND, WITH THE SUPPORT OF FAMILY, WILL BE ABLE TO GET THROUGH THIS. THE LOONEYS ARE A WELL-KNOWN FARMING FAMILY IN THE BAY OF PLENTY. LOCALS TODAY WERE SHOCKED BY WHAT HAD TAKEN PLACE. IT JUST LEAVES THAT` THAT FEELING OF... UNEASINESS, I GUESS, AT WHAT CAN HAPPEN IN A LITTLE PLACE LIKE THIS. GRANT LOWE IS A FAMILY FRIEND AND TOLD ME ANNE AND ALAN HAD BEEN THE VICTIMS OF A BURGLARY JUST LAST MONTH. THEIR UTE WAS STOLEN, AND MACHINERY AND STUFF AS WELL. THIS IS ALSO NOT THE ONLY HOME INVASION TO HIT THE OPOTIKI COMMUNITY RECENTLY. THIS MAN, WHO DIDN'T WANT TO BE IDENTIFIED, WAS ATTACKED AND ROBBED LAST MONTH. HAD THIS GUY COME, BOOT MY BACK DOOR IN; UM, BASICALLY ASSAULTED ME, THREW ME THROUGH MY WINDOW... POLICE ARE NOW LOOKING INTO WHETHER THE TWO CASES ARE LINKED. MATT MCLEAN, ONE NEWS. THE SHOOTING'S ALSO CAUSED PROBLEMS FOR AUCKLAND'S COMMUTERS, WITH A SECTION OF THE NORTHERN MOTORWAY CLOSED FOR 14 HOURS. IT REOPENED JUST OVER AN HOUR AGO. IT'S BEEN REVEALED THE PILOT OF A PLANE THAT CRASH-LANDED IN AMERICA WAS STILL 'IN TRAINING'. HE'D JUST 43 HOURS' EXPERIENCE FLYING THE BOEING 777 JETLINER. TWO CHINESE TEENAGERS DIED AFTER THE SMASH IN SAN FRANCISCO, WHILE DOZENS REMAIN IN HOSPITAL. JOANNA HUNKIN HAS THE LATEST. THE TERRIFYING MOMENT OF IMPACT CAUGHT ON CAMERA. MAN: OH MY GOD. OH, IT'S AN ACCIDENT. THE PLANESPOTTER KEEPS FILMING AS THE AIRCRAFT, WITH 307 ON BOARD, REARS UP AND NEARLY FLIPS BEFORE COMING TO REST ON THE SAN FRANCISCO TARMAC. OH MY GOD. THE VIOLENT IMPACT HAS PUT MORE THAN 50 IN HOSPITAL, BUT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN THE CAUSE OF ONE PASSENGER'S DEATH. HER INJURIES ARE REPORTEDLY CONSISTENT WITH BEING RUN OVER. SIREN WAILS THE SAN FRANCISCO FIRE CHIEF IS NOW INVESTIGATING WHETHER AN EMERGENCY VEHICLE RAN OVER THE PASSENGER ON THE TARMAC. THE TWO WHO DIED, BOTH 16-YEAR-OLD GIRLS FROM CHINA, WERE ON THEIR WAY TO THIS SUMMER CAMP TO LEARN ENGLISH. TONIGHT SEVERAL PASSENGERS REMAIN IN CRITICAL CONDITION. DOCTORS ARE REPORTING AT LEAST TWO ARE PARALYSED. THEIR SPINES SNAPPED ON IMPACT. I HAVE TO SAY THAT WHOEVER TRIAGED THESE PATIENTS AT THE AIRPORT DID A FABULOUS JOB, BECAUSE THEY GOT TO US THE SICKEST PATIENTS IN THE SHORTEST TIME. I DON'T THINK THOSE PATIENTS WOULD HAVE SURVIVED, TRULY. PASSENGERS ALSO PRAISING THE PROFESSIONAL FLIGHT CREW. THIS LITTLE TINY... YOU KNOW, I MEAN, GIRL, THIS FLIGHT ATTENDANT. SHE WAS BASICALLY ORGANISING THE EMERGENCY EXIT AND PREPARING THE EVACUATION. OF COURSE SHE WAS CRYING, SHE WAS IN TEARS ALL OVER. BUT SHE WAS AMAZING. AS INVESTIGATORS SWEPT THE TARMAC FOR CLUES, THE COCKPIT VOICE RECORDER REVEALED THE CAPTAIN TRIED TO ABORT THE LANDING. A CALL TO INITIATE A GO-AROUND OCCURRED 1.5 SECONDS BEFORE IMPACT. SEVERAL PASSENGERS SAY THE PILOT THRUST THE ENGINES SHORTLY BEFORE IMPACT. AS WE'RE ABOUT TO TOUCH DOWN, THE GUY PUT FULL THROTTLE ON THE ENGINE TO START TO GAIN SOME ALTITUDE AGAIN, BECAUSE HE PROBABLY REALISED WE WERE TOO LOW. IT WAS TOO LATE. WATER STARTED SPLASHING EVERYWHERE. TODAY ASIANA CONFIRMED THE PILOT IN CONTROL WAS NEW TO THE AIRCRAFT, WITH JUST 43 HOURS' FLYING EXPERIENCE IN A BOEING 777. JOANNA HUNKIN, ONE NEWS. THE SAN FRANCISCO DISASTER HAS SIMILARITIES TO A BRITISH AIRWAYS FLIGHT FIVE YEARS AGO. THEN, ANOTHER BOEING 777 CRASH-LANDED AT LONDON'S HEATHROW AIRPORT. THERE WEREN'T ANY FATALITIES. AIR NZ SAYS IT HAS NO SAFETY CONCERNS ABOUT THE EIGHT 777S IN ITS FLEET. BUT IF YOU'RE HEADING TO TONGA, THERE'S A WARNING YOU SHOULDN'T BOARD A DOMESTIC AIRCRAFT. OUR GOVERNMENT'S SUSPENDED MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN TOURISM AID AFTER LEARNING THE KINGDOM'S USING A PLANE WITH ONE OF THE WORLD'S WORST SAFETY RECORDS. THIS EXCLUSIVE FROM PACIFIC CORRESPONDENT BARBARA DREAVER. CHINA'S LATEST GIFT TO TONGA COULD COST THE KINGDOM $3M OF NZ AID. THERE ARE REAL CONCERNS ABOUT THE PLANE THAT HAS BEEN IMPORTED IN THE LAST FEW DAYS, AND UNTIL ALL OF THE SAFETY CERTIFICATION HAS BEEN UNDERTAKEN TO A HIGH STANDARD, WE'VE GOT THINGS ON HOLD. ITS AS SIMPLE AS THAT. SINCE 2009, THERE'S BEEN 11 SERIOUS INCIDENTS INVOLVING THE MA60 ` THREE OF THEM IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS. MOST OF THE CRASHES WERE CAUSED BY TECHNICAL OR SYSTEM FAILURE. JUST LAST MONTH, MYANMAR GROUNDED ITS MA60 PLANES FOR SAFETY CHECKS AFTER TWO CRASH LANDINGS. AVIATION COMMENTATOR PETER CLARK WAS THE FIRST TO PUBLICLY RAISE THE ALARM OVER THE TONGAN DEAL. IT IS NOT CERTIFIED BY THE UK; IT'S NOT CERTIFIED BY THE US; IT IS NOT CERTIFIED HERE IN NZ. BUT IN TONGA, THE MA60 WAS WELCOMED WITH OPEN ARMS OVER THE WEEKEND, WITH POLITICIANS INSISTING THE AIRCRAFT IS SAFE. IT'S SAD THAT THE UNITED STATES, AND EVEN NZ, HAVE NOT ACCEPTED THIS AIRCRAFT, BUT I AM HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE THE CHINESE GOVERNMENT HAS GIFTED THIS PLANE, AND ANOTHER IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR. THE MA60 AIRCRAFT SYMBOLISES A NEW FRUIT YIELDED BY THE COOPERATION OF MUTUAL BENEFIT BETWEEN OUR TWO COUNTRIES. BUT THE RELATIONSHIP WITH ITS CLOSE NEIGHBOUR REMAINS FROSTY. THE NZ GOVERNMENT SAYS IT HAS AN UNCOMPROMISING VIEW ON SAFETY, AND IF THE PLANE GOES INTO SERVICE WITHOUT INTERNATIONALLY RESPECTED CERTIFICATION, THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS WILL CHANGE ITS TRAVEL ADVISORY TO WARN TOURISTS. THE TONGAN GOVERNMENT IS PROMISING THE NEW PLANE WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO FLY UNTIL IT MEETS INTERNATIONAL AVIATION STANDARDS. BUT GIVEN ITS CHECKERED HISTORY, IT MAY BE SOME TIME BEFORE THIS PLANE GETS OFF THE GROUND. BARBARA DREAVER, ONE NEWS. JOHN KEY'S NOW SIGNALLING HE'LL MAKE CHANGES TO CONTROVERSIAL SPYING LAWS IN A BID TO GET SUPPORT FROM POLITICAL RIVALS. ONE NEWS UNDERSTANDS HIS PLANS INCLUDE A REVIEW OF THE GCSB EVERY FIVE YEARS. POLITICAL EDITOR CORIN DANN HAS THE DETAILS AND JOINS US NOW. CORIN. THE START OF SOME HORSE TRADING FOR THE BILL TO PASS STILL A BIT QUESIOTN THAN A SINGLE MAJORITY. THE THREE-PERSON PANEL IDEA WAS FIRST MOOTED BY WINSTON PETERS, SO COULD HELP SECURE HIS SUPPORT. MR PETERS HAS ALSO EXPRESSED A VIEW THAT HE LIKES THE PANEL PUBLICLY. I'VE SEEN THOSE COMMENTS. THE REVIEW IDEA A NOD TO LABOUR, WHICH HAS BEEN CALLING FOR AN INDEPENDENT GCSB INQUIRY. BUT WHILE OPEN TO TALKS, DAVID SHEARER REMAINS WARY. WHAT THE GOVERNMENT IS DOING NOW IS RUSHING THIS LEGISLATION THROUGH AND SAYING, 'DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. WE'LL DO A REVIEW IN FIVE YEARS.' MY FEELING IS DO IT NOW. WITH THE INTELLIGENCE SELECT COMMITTEE DUE TO REPORT BACK BY THE END OF THE MONTH, ANY DEAL-MAKING, IF THERE IS TO BE ANY, WILL HAVE TO BE DONE FAST. COMP CORIN, IS WHAT THE PRIME MINISTER'S OFFERING GOING TO BE ENOUGH TO PASS THE BILL? I THINK IT WILL BE ENOUGH TO UNITED FUTURE AND NZ FIRST IT WOULD MEAN HE WOULD GET AN EXTRA ASSITANCE FOR A SPRINGBOARD TO GET THIS OFF GROUND AS FOR LABOUR, STILL UNCERTAIN THERE IS SOME HISTORY FOR LABOUR AND TOUGH CALLS TO MAEK TOUGH ON THE LUNA ROSSA SAILORS TOO, BUT THEY'RE STICKING TO THEIR PRINCIPLES OF NOT RACING UNTIL THEIR CASE AGAINST CONTROVERSIAL RULE CHANGES HAS BEEN HEARD. I ACCEPT THE DECISION OF THE TEAM. I FEEL IT IS THE RIGHT WAY OF HANDLING THIS, BECAUSE WHAT THEY ARE TRYING TO DO IS SOMETHING UNACCEPTABLE. IT MAY HAVE BEEN A FALSE START ` THE FIASCO OF A ONE-BOAT RACE ` BUT AS A TASTE OF THINGS TO COME, IT'S CLEARLY SHOWING THE POTENTIAL FOR SOME SPECTACULAR RACING IN THIS AMAZING SPORTING ARENA. A RESOLUTION FROM THE JURY THIS WEEK AND ANOTHER TEAM ON THE WATER AND IT WILL BE GAME ON. MARTIN TASKER, ONE NEWS, SAN FRANCISCO. AND MARTIN HAS MORE ON A SPECTACULAR SHOW BY OUR BLACK BOAT.. LATER IN SPORT. UP AHEAD ON ONE NEWS ` THEY SAID IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN, SO HOW CAN ANOTHER 30,000 TONS OF NZ MEAT BE STUCK ON A CHINESE WHARF? THE FIRE'S OUT, BUT 40 PEOPLE ARE STILL MISSING AS INVESTIGATORS HUNT FOR CLUES ABOUT CANADA'S DEADLY RUNAWAY TRAIN. THE KIWI SURFER WHO CAME OUT ON THE WRONG SIDE OF AN ENCOUNTER WITH A 50-TON WHALE. AND EXPERTS SAY EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS ARE SET TO BECOME MORE COMMON, AND WITH THEM, HIGHER INSURANCE PREMIUMS. TINKLING MUSIC Do you know how good fibre is for business? Fibre is making it possible for NZ companies to benefit from ultrafast broadband, or UFB. Fibre, you could say, allows data to travel faster, meaning an improved experience for offices where lots of users share one internet connection. Video conferencing with other fibre users is crisper and smoother. When it's as good as being in the same room, you can really begin to save time and money on travel. And with increased upload and download speeds, cloud computing becomes more seamless than ever. Fibre is being rolled out over the next seven years to deliver ultrafast broadband to NZ. Find out how and when you can get your business connected to ultrafast broadband over fibre at telecom.co.nz AN EMBARRASSMENT ` THAT'S HOW THE LATEST MEAT FIASCO IS BEING DESCRIBED BY INDUSTRY INSIDERS. AFTER ASSURANCES IT WOULDN'T HAPPEN AGAIN, ANOTHER 30,000 TONS OF MEAT IS SITTING IN CHINA BECAUSE OF RULE CHANGES WE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT. WHAT'S MORE, THE MINISTER WAS IN CHINA WHILE THIS WAS HAPPENING AND DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT EITHER. HERE'S DEPUTY POLITICAL EDITOR JESSICA MUTCH. NOT ONCE, BUT TWICE NOW NZ MEAT HAS BEEN BLOCKED FROM GETTING INTO CHINA. THIS TIME IT'S BECAUSE THE RULES CHANGED WITHOUT ANYONE KNOWING. WELL, IT'S ANOTHER IMPEDIMENT AND THE SORT OF THING WE DON'T WANT. THE NEW RULES KICK IN TODAY AND REQUIRE VET CHECKS AT THE LAST SITE BEFORE THE MEAT IS EXPORTED. IT WILL AFFECT MORE THAN 1300 SHIPMENTS OF MEAT, WHICH IS ABOUT 30,000 TONS. THE RULES CHANGED AT THE END OF JUNE, BUT NO ONE KNEW ABOUT IT FOR A WEEK. HOW FRUSTRATING FOR YOU IS IT THAT WE DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT > FROM THE 26TH OF JUNE UNTIL LAST THURSDAY? > WELL, OBVIOUSLY, IT IS NOT IDEAL. WHAT'S MORE, THE MINISTER FOR PRIMARY INDUSTRIES, NATHAN GUY, WAS ACTUALLY IN CHINA LAST WEEK. HOW DID HE NOT KNOW ABOUT IT? > WELL, WE BOTH FOUND OUT AT EXACTLY THE SAME TIME, IN TERMS OF THURSDAY, SO I THINK, AS I SAID BEFORE, WE ARE ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT. THE OPPOSITION SAYS NATHAN GUY SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. THIS IS HIGHLY EMBARRASSING AND BORDERS ON INCOMPETENCE. THE MINISTER HAS GIVEN ASSURANCE AFTER ASSURANCE THAT THIS WOULD BE SORTED. IT IS NOT SORTED. A TRADE LOBBY GROUP ` THE NZ CHINA TRADE ASSOCIATION ` SAYS IT'S CLEARLY A COMMUNICATION ISSUE, AND WE NEED TO HAVE THE RIGHT PEOPLE ON THE GROUND IN CHINA ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS. DON'T FORGET TWO MONTHS AGO, $100M WORTH OF MEAT COULDN'T GET TO MARKET IN CHINA BECAUSE OF A FLAW IN THE PAPERWORK. THE CHINESE MUST BE LAUGHING AT US AT THE MOMENT. AT THE END OF THE DAY, WHAT I THINK IS POSITIVE IS WE'VE MOVED INCREDIBLY QUICKLY. THE MINISTER IS PROMISING THE LATEST ISSUE WILL SORTED IN THE NEXT WEEK. JESSICA MUTCH, ONE NEWS. 40 PEOPLE ARE STILL MISSING, FEARED DEAD, IN THE SMALL CANADIAN TOWN WHERE A TRAIN CARRYING CRUDE OIL DERAILED AND EXPLODED. FIVE BODIES HAVE BEEN RECOVERED SO FAR FROM THE DEVASTATED TOWN CENTRE, DESCRIBED BY CANADA'S PRIME MINISTER AS A 'WARZONE'. A LARGE PART OF THE DOWNTOWN HAS BEEN DESTROYED. IT'S JUST` IT IS REALLY JUST TERRIBLE. THERE IS BEEN LOSS OF LIFE, AS WE ALL KNOW, AND THERE'S STILL MANY, MANY PEOPLE MISSING. WITH THE FIRE NOW COMPLETELY EXTINGUISHED, AUTHORITIES ARE INVESTIGATING HOW 73 WAGONS SEPARATED FROM THE ENGINES, ROLLED DOWNHILL AND DERAILED. ALL 10 PEOPLE ARE REPORTED DEAD AFTER AN AIR TAXI CRASHED IN ALASKA. THE DE HAVILLAND OTTER WAS REPORTEDLY TAKING OFF FROM SOLDOTNA AIRPORT, SOUTH OF ANCHORAGE, WHEN IT CRASHED AND CAUGHT FIRE. EGYPT'S MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD CLAIMS 34 OF ITS MEMBERS HAVE BEEN SHOT DEAD DURING A PEACEFUL CAIRO SIT-IN, WHILE THE ARMY SAYS A TERRORIST GROUP TRIED TO STORM A MILITARY FACILITY. IT FOLLOWS ANOTHER NIGHT OF PROTEST IN THE CAPITAL AS ARMY WARPLANES SWOOPED OVER TAHRIR SQUARE, WHERE OPPONENTS OF THE OUSTED PRESIDENT MOHAMED MORSI RALLIED IN SUPPORT OF THE COUP AND CRITICISED PRESIDENT OBAMA FOR NOT BACKING THE MILITARY OVERTHROW. ACROSS TOWN, MR MORSI'S SUPPORTERS HAD RALLIED OUTSIDE A CAIRO MOSQUE AND THE MILITARY BARACKS WHERE HE'S BEING HELD. SYRIAN TROOPS HAVE UNLEASHED SOME OF THE CIVIL WAR'S HEAVIEST BOMBARDMENTS ON THE BESIEGED CITY OF HOMS. THIS UNVERIFIED VIDEO SHOWS WHITE SMOKE RISING NEAR A 13TH-CENTURY MOSQUE. GOVERNMENT FORCES HAVE BEEN USING AIRCRAFT AND ARTILLERY STRIKES IN A RENEWED OFFENSIVE AGAINST THE CITY. HOMS, WITH AROUND A MILLION PEOPLE, HAS BEEN AN OPPOSITION STRONGHOLD SINCE THE EARLY DAYS OF THE UPRISING AGAINST PRESIDENT BASHAR ASSAD. SOUTH AFRICANS ARE SENDING SOME UNUSUAL MESSAGES OF SUPPORT FOR NELSON MANDELA AS HE LIES CRITICALLY ILL IN PRETORIA. BIKERS GUNNED THEIR MACHINES OUTSIDE HIS HOSPITAL TO GIVE THE FORMER PRESIDENT A BOOST. MY LITTLE SOLDIERS ARE UP THERE TO SAY, 'STAND UP, DADA. WE'RE THERE FOR YOU. WE STILL NEED YOU.' IN JOHANNESBURG, A RABBI LED PRAYERS FROM THE JEWISH COMMUNITY OUTSIDE MR MANDELA'S HOME, WHILE WORSHIPPERS AT HIS CHURCH PRAYED FOR THE MAN THEY CALL MADIBA. THE FIRST DAY OF THE TRADITIONAL RUNNING OF THE BULLS IN SPAIN A KIWI SURFER IS LUCKY TO BE ALIVE TONIGHT AFTER HE WAS KNOCKED OUT BY A WHALE, OFF SYDNEY'S BONDI BEACH. THE 50-TON SOUTHERN RIGHT WHALE AND CALF CAME FACE TO FACE WITH SURFERS BEFORE IT LASHED OUT. I THINK ITS TAIL MUST HAVE FLIPPED UP AND KNOCKED MY BOARD. AND HIGGENS, I WAS KNOCKED OUT. THE SRI LANKAN-BORN NZER (38) WAS LEFT FACE-DOWN IN THE WATER BEFORE FRIENDS DRAGGED HIM ON TO HIS SURFBOARD AND HELPED HIM ASHORE. FIRST IT WAS UNUSUALLY DRY, THEN INCREDIBLY WET AND STORMY. THE CLIMATE THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF 2013'S BEEN AN EXTREME MIX, AND SCIENTISTS SAY THERE'LL BE MORE YEARS LIKE IT IN FUTURE. AND EVEN IF THE WILD WEATHER DOESN'T HIT YOU, HIGHER INSURANCE PREMIUMS MIGHT. WILL HINE EXPLAINS. CANTERBURY'S THE LATEST PLACE TO COP IT, POWER LINES DOWNED AS FIERCE WINDS RIPPED THROUGH AT THE WEEKEND. WIND THE CLOCK BACK, THOUGH, PAST JUNE'S DEEP SNOWFALLS, AND THE REGION WAS PARCHED DRY BY THE SUN ` ALL CONDITIONS THE COUNTRY COULD BE SEEING MORE OF. THERE ARE GOOD REASONS TO THINK THESE KINDS OF LATITUDES WILL GET DRYING ON SEASONAL TIMESCALES. THERE ARE ALSO REASONS TO THINK YOU'LL GET MORE EXPLOSIVE WET EVENTS WHEN YOU GET THEM AND, YOU KNOW, MORE VIOLENT STORMS. SUCH STORMS HAVE RECENTLY HAMMERED NELSON AND WELLINGTON, BUT WORKING OUT HOW MANY MORE OF THEM WE MIGHT SEE IS AN INEXACT SCIENCE. THE OCEANS DO A LOT OF THE GOVERNING OF THE SYSTEM. WHAT HAPPENS IN THE TROPICS IS REALLY IMPORTANT AND IN THE SUB-TROPICS AS WELL, SO THERE'S A LOT OF FACTORS THAT KIND OF COME TOGETHER AND DETERMINE THE WEATHER. ONE MONTH IT'S DROUGHT; ANOTHER HEAVY SNOW. TORNADOES TOO HAVE WREAKED HAVOC IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS. INSURERS SAY EVERYONE BEARS THE BRUNT. FROM EXTREME WEATHER, YOU CAN GO FROM AGRICULTURAL CROP DAMAGES; YOU CAN GO MATERIAL DAMAGES; WE'VE GOT HOMES; YOU KNOW, BUSINESSES ARE CLOSED; THERE'S BUSINESS INTERRUPTION POLICIES; THERE'S MASSIVE INFRASTRUCTURE COSTS; SO THIS IS SOMETHING THAT AFFECTS COMMUNITIES, BUSINESSES, INDIVIDUALS AND GOVERNMENTS AT THE LOCAL AND CENTRAL LEVEL. AND INSURANCE PREMIUMS COULD RISE. THE IDEA IS MITIGATE, PLAN, GET AS MUCH INFORMATION AS WE CAN ON THE EFFECTS AND HOW WE CAN PREVENT THE DAMAGE. IF WE CAN PREVENT THE DAMAGE, THEN THE INSURANCE PREMIUMS WON'T BE SO HIGH. THE MESSAGE FOR ALL ` BE PREPARED, BECAUSE THE CLOUDS ARE GATHERING. WILL HINE, ONE NEWS. NOW FOR A LOOK AT WHAT'S GOING ON NOW. THE COLD'S MOVING IN? A COLDER WEEK'S COMING IN. THE SOUTHERLY'S SHARPENING ITS CLAWS. WE HAVE SNOW FOR THE RANGES, BUT LOTS OF SUNSHINE FOR THE LIFESTYLE BLOCKS. FOR WEATHER, SEE ONENEWS.CO.NZ BACK WITH YOUR OUTLOOK AFTER SPORT, AS A NEW, PRICKLY LOW UNRAVELS THE COLD WEATHER IN THE SOUTH. CHRISTCHURCH CITY'S TOLD IT CAN AND MUST CONTINUE ISSUING BUILDING CONSENTS WHILE IT WAITS FOR A CROWN MANAGER TO TAKE OVER. HE DOWNSIDE OF INCREASED WORKPLACE DRUG TESTING. EMPLOYERS SAY IT'S PUTTING OFF JOB APPLICANTS WHO'D OTHERWISE DO THE WORK. AND IN SCOTLAND, ALL DUNBLANE GOES CRAZY AS A HOMETOWN HERO ACHIEVES HIS LIFELONG AMBITION ON WIMBLEDON'S CENTRE COURT. MAN: Now, tell me what you see in this image. MAN: Now, tell me what you see in this image. WOMAN: Um,... my new shoes? OK. And this? My... tickets to Fiji. Right, OK. This? This? My phone bill.

Call us today. 1 THE GOVERNMENT TODAY APPOINTED PUBLIC SECTOR FIX-IT MAN DOUG MARTIN AS CROWN MANAGER TO REPAIR CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL'S BROKEN CONSENTING PROCESS. DOUG MARTIN SPOKE EXCLUSIVELY TO ONE NEWS ABOUT HIS LATEST ASSIGNMENT. MIKE THORPE REPORTS. THIS IS THE MAN CHARGED WITH REBUILDING CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL'S TATTERED REPUTATION, STARTING MONDAY NEXT WEEK. THE WHOLE PURPOSE OF THIS REVIEW IS TO LIFT THE PERFORMANCE OF CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL TO A VERY HIGH LEVEL ` NOT A PASS MARK ` TO A VERY HIGH LEVEL, SO THAT THAT CONFIDENCE GETS RESTORED. DOUG MARTIN IS NO STRANGER TO REGULATORY MESS AND NO STRANGER TO CHRISTCHURCH. HE WAS PART OF THE REVIEW TEAM THAT RECOMMENDED SACKING ENVIRONMENT CANTERBURY MEMBERS IN 2010, REPLACING THEM WITH GOVERNMENT-APPOINTED COMMISSIONERS. SO, SHOULD CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL HAVE ANYTHING TO FEAR? I WOULDN'T LIKE TO COMMENT ON THAT AT ALL, ACTUALLY. THE WELLINGTON-BASED ADVISOR WILL REMAIN IN CHARGE UNTIL DECEMBER 2014. I WOULD HOPE THAT THIS PHASE IN THE REVIEW OF CHRISTCHURCH CITY IS OVER WELL BEFORE THEN. THE CROWN MANAGER WAS UNVEILED THIS AFTERNOON BY THE PRIME MINISTER, ALTHOUGH HE SEEMED TO FORGET BOTH HIS TITLE AND HIS NAME. THE GOVERNMENT IS APPOINTING A CROWN MONITOR. THAT CROWN MONITOR IS DOUG BAILEY. TODAY THE CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL'S ACCREDITATION OFFICIALLY LAPSED, BUT THEY CONTINUE TO ISSUE CONSENTS. THE GOVERNMENT SAYS THIS IS NOT ONLY LAWFUL, BUT THE COUNCIL ARE LEGALLY OBLIGED TO CONTINUE UNDER SECTION 212 OF THE BUILDING ACT. THE BUILDING AND CONSTRUCTION MINISTER BELIEVES SAFETY IS NOT AN ISSUE. I DON'T BELIEVE WE'VE GOT ANY BUILDINGS THAT ARE NOT BUILT TO COMPLIANCE STANDARDS SUCH THAT THEY'LL KILL PEOPLE OR FALL DOWN. PROOF OF THAT THE TOP PRIORITY. MIKE THORPE, ONE NEWS. IN A PART OF NZ WHERE JOBS ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN, SOME EMPLOYERS SAY THEY CAN'T FIND ENOUGH DRUG-FREE PEOPLE TO WORK. ONE EASTERN BAY OF PLENTY TRUCK COMPANY SAYS IT'S HAD TO HIRE OVERSEAS WORKERS BECAUSE THERE AREN'T ENOUGH QUALIFIED LOCALS WHO CAN PASS A DRUG TEST. PAUL HOBBS REPORTS. RUNNING A TRUCKING COMPANY OUT OF OPOTIKI IS TOUGH BUSINESS. NO, IT'S NOT EASY IN THIS PART OF THE WORLD. ROBERT MONK SAYS HE'S HAD MANY LONG-TERM, LOYAL WORKERS, LIKE GARY,... HIYA, GARY. HOW ARE YOU? A COUPLE OF PALLETS. GOOD. ...BUT IN THE PAST YEAR HE'S FIRED SEVEN DRIVERS ACROSS THE COMPANY BECAUSE THEY FAILED DRUG TESTS. HARDER, THOUGH, IS REPLACING THEM. HEALTH AND SAFETY REGULATIONS NOW MEAN EVERY PROSPECTIVE DRIVER MUST PASS A PRE-EMPLOYMENT DRUG TEST, AND THAT'S WHEN INTEREST IN HIS JOB ADVERTS DRIES UP. WE BOOK THE DOCTORS FOR A TEST, AND THEY JUST SIMPLY DO NOT SHOW UP. WE BOOK THE DOCTORS FOR A TEST, AND THEY JUST SIMPLY DO NOT SHOW UP. IT'S EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. WHAKATANE CONTRACTOR RICHARD CLAYTON HAD TWO VACANCIES BEFORE CHRISTMAS AND COULDN'T FILL EITHER OF THEM. WE HAD SEVEN OR EIGHT PEOPLE WHO GOT SCARED OFF BECAUSE OF THE DRUG TESTS. ROBERT MONK WAS FORCED TO HIRE OVERSEAS WORKERS; RICHARD CLAYTON HAD VALUABLE MACHINERY SITTING IDLE. THAT'S A VERY REAL MONETARY COST. THAT'S A VERY REAL MONETARY COST. YOU'VE STILL GOT OWNNERSHIP OF THE MACHINE, BUT IT'S NOT WORKING. THE COUNTRY'S LARGEST WORKPLACE DRUG TESTER SAYS GREATER EMPHASIS ON HEALTH AND SAFETY HAS SEEN TESTING RATES ALMOST DOUBLE IN THE PAST TWO YEARS, WITH AROUND 8% OF WORKERS FAILING. SOME COMPANIES ARE ACTUALLY HAVING FULL DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICIES AND HAVE ZERO TOLERANCE. ROBERT MONK MAKES NO APOLOGIES FOR HIS HARD LINE ON DRUGS,... WE HAVE A BIG RESPONSIBILITY, BEING ON THE HIGHWAY. ....EVEN IF IT MEANS A COST TO HIS BUSINESS. IF PEOPLE KNOW THAT THEY'RE GOING TO LOSE THEIR JOBS BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN TAKING DRUGS, MAYBE THAT'S WHAT THEY NEED TO STOP DOING THAT. HE'D LIKE TO SEE MORE EMPLOYERS ACROSS ALL INDUSTRIES FOLLOW IN HIS TRACKS. PAUL HOBBS, ONE NEWS. THE SOUTH WAIKATO TOWN OF PUTARURU IS BELIEVED TO BE THE FIRST COMMUNITY IN THE COUNTRY TO SAY NO TO THE SALE OF LEGAL HIGHS. ASSAULTS AND OTHER VIOLENT BEHAVIOUR COMMITTED BY PEOPLE ON THE DRUGS PROMPTED POLICE TO ASK RETAILERS TO AGREE TO A BAN. REGARDLESS OF IT BEING A LEGAL PRODUCT OR NOT, THE STAND WAS A SOCIAL ISSUE AND SOMETHING THAT THE COMMUNITY FELT NEEDED TO BE DONE. PARLIAMENT'S EXPECTED TO PASS A LAW THIS WEEK REQUIRING MANUFACTURERS TO PROVE THEIR PRODUCTS ARE SAFE BEFORE THEY GO ON SALE, AND DAIRIES WILL NO LONGER BE ALLOWED TO SELL THEM. A BAN ON SMOKING AT PYCHIATRIC FACILITIES OPERATED BY THE WAITEMATA DISTRICT HEALTH BOARD IN AUCKLAND HAS BEEN UPHELD BY A JUDICIAL REVIEW. FORMER PATIENTS HAD CHALLENGED THE POLICY, SAYING IT DETERRED PEOPLE FROM SEEKING TREATMENT. BUT IN A HIGH COURT RULING RELEASED TODAY, THEIR CLAIM WAS DISMISSED. JUSTICE ASHER SAID DHBS HAD THE RIGHT TO IMPLEMENT A NON-SMOKING POLICY TO PROTECT PATIENTS, STAFF AND VISITORS. OPPONENTS OF THE PARTIAL SALE OF STATE-OWNED ASSETS HAVE RESUBMITTED THEIR PETITION FOR A REFERENDUM WITH TENS OF THOUSANDS OF NEW SIGNATURES. TWO MONTHS AGO, MORE THAN 100,000 OF THE SIGNATURES WERE DEEMED INVALID OR BOGUS. THIS AFTERNOON THE UPDATED PETITION WAS HANDED OVER. WE'VE NOW GOT ANOTHER 51,300, AND WE'RE FAIRLY CONFIDENT THAT WE'LL MEET THE REQUIREMENT TO FORCE THE REFERENDUM. THE PETITION IS EXPECTED TO TAKE TWO MONTHS TO COUNT. LOOKING AT OUR TOP STORIES TONIGHT ` THE DEFENCE FORCE HAVE CONFIRMED THE MAN WHO DIED AFTER A SHOOTOUT WITH POLICE IN AUCKLAND WAS AN EX NZ ARMY SOLDIER, CALEB DEAN HENRY (20) OF OPOTIKI. POLICE SAY HE LEAD THEM ON A 350KM CHASE POLICE SAY HE LED THEM ON A 350KM CHASE FROM THE BAY OF PLENTY TO AUCKLAND AFTER A HOME INVASION NEAR OPOTIKI THAT LEFT A COUPLE IN THEIR 60S HOSPITALISED AND TRAUMATISED. NZ'S TAKEN A TOUGH STAND OVER PLANES GIVEN TO TONGA BY CHINA. TO WARN TOURISTS. THE GOVERNMENT IS HINTING AT SIGNFICANT CHANGES TO THE CONSTROVERSIAL GCSB BILL IN A BID TO BOOST SUPPORT FOR IT IN PARLIAMENT. ONE NEWS UNDERSTANDS CHANGES BEING CONSIDERED TO ENTICE LABOUR AND PETER DUNNE INCLUDE A POSSIBLE FIVE-YEARLY REVIEW OF OUR SPIES AND SETTING UP A THREE-PERSON OVERSIGHT PANEL. ANDREW'S HERE WITH SPORT, AND ANDY MURRAY CAN NOW SLEEP. AND AFTER HIS CELEBRATIONS, WHICH ARE PROBABLY STILL GOING HUGE BURDEN OFF HIS SHOULDERS SO HOW DID HE BEAT THE WORLD NUMBER ONE IN STRAIGHT SETS? AS THE SCOTTISH CHAMP MAKES ONE CRUCIAL UNFORCED ERROR... HE FORGOT HIS MUM! ELSEWHERE IT'S BEEN A MASSIVE 24 HOURS FOR KIWI SPORT. WE HAVE STEVEN ADAMS' NEXT NBA LEAP. PLUS, A SOLO SAIL, BUT WHY HAS TEAM NZ SENT HEADS SPINNING IN SAN FRANCISCO. AT 350KM/H, 12 MONTHS OF FRUSTRATION END FOR SCOTT DIXON. AND A PIT STOP SHOCK IN GERMANY, COMING UP NEXT ON ONE. IT'S BEEN AN HISTORIC AND HECTIC DAY IN SPORT. WE'LL GO TO WIMBLEDON SOON, AND ALSO HAVE THE LATEST STEP IN STEVE ADAMS' NBA BASKETBALL DREAM. BUT FIRST, TEAM NZ HAS SAILED ITS GIANT CATAMARAN OFFICIALLY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE AMERICA'S CUP. THE BLACK BOAT HAS IMPRESSED THE PUNDITS, BUT THE TEAM REMAINS IN THE DARK OVER THE IMMEDIATE FUTURE OF THE REGATTA. MARTIN TASKER REPORTS FROM SAN FRANCISCO. THE SIGHT SAILING FANS HAVE BEEN WAITING TWO YEARS FOR. AN AC72 IN FULL FLIGHT ON THE SAN FRANCISCO BAY RACECOURSE. LOOK AT THAT. JUST A SHAME TEAM NZ DIDN'T HAVE ANY COMPANY. OBVIOUSLY WE WOULD RATHER BE RACING AND PUSHING OURSELVES AND HAVING COMMUNICATION ABOUT THE OTHER BOAT. TODAY THERE WASN'T A HUGE AMOUNT OF TALK GOING ON BOARD THE BOAT. BUT WE WERE LEARNING ABOUT THE RACECOURSE. FRUSTRATION FOR THE LUNA ROSSA SAILORS, STICKING TO THEIR REFUSAL TO RACE UNTIL THEIR CASE OVER RULE CHANGES HAS BEEN HEARD BY THE JURY, BUT READY TO TAKE ON THE KIWIS WHEN IT'S RESOLVED. WE HAD A HUGE IMPROVEMENT IN PERFORMANCE ON THE NEW BOAT. THINGS ARE GOING WELL, AND OUR RATE OF IMPROVEMENT IS HUGE. SO I AM VERY OPTIMISTIC. CAN YOU BEAT THEM? YEAH. YEAH, WE CAN. THEY'LL HAVE THEIR WORK CUT OUT WHEN THEY DO FINALLY DECIDE TO RACE. 38 KNOTS AND COUNTING. THEY ARE PUTTING ON QUITE A SHOW... TEAM NZ WOUND IT UP TO 42.8 KNOTS IN JUST 15 TO 17 KNOTS OF BREEZE. BUT THE ITALIANS ARE STILL UNFAZED. THEY ARE NO NORMAL BOATS, SO OBVIOUSLY YOU EXPECT TO REACH HIGH SPEED. AND YESTERDAY, SAILING IN WINDIER THAN TODAY, WE WENT A LITTLE FASTER THAN THAT, WHICH I CAN TELL YOU IS SCARY. SCARIER STILL WITH ANOTHER BOAT ON THE TRACK. THAT'S WHAT THE FANS REALLY WANT, AND THEY'RE NOT FOOLED BY A ONE-HORSE RACE, NO MATTER HOW SPECTACULAR. THE ORGANISERS SHOULD BE EMBARRASSED. MARTIN TASKER, ONE NEWS, SAN FRANCISCO. OLYMPIC SILVER MEDALLISTS BLAIR TUKE AND PETER BURLING KIWI TEENAGER STEVEN ADAMS HAS HAD HIS FIRST GAME AND HIS FIRST WIN FOR HIS NEW BASKETBALL FRANCHISE. ADAMS' OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER HAS KICKED OFF THE NBA'S OFF-SEASON SUMMER LEAGUE COMPETITION IN FLORIDA. OUR US CORRESPONDENT JACK TAME WAS THERE. HE'S ONLY HAD A TEAM FOR A WEEK AND A HALF, BUT MINUTES INTO HIS FIRST MATCH IN OKLAHOMA CITY COLOURS, STEVEN ADAMS SHOWED WHY HE'S WORTH MORE THAN A MILLION DOLLARS A SEASON. HERE'S JEREMY WANG. OH, BIG STEVEN ADAMS! DIDN'T WE TALK ABOUT THE ATHLETICISM WHEN HE GOT INTO THE GAME? HE JUST SHOWED US RIGHT THERE WHAT TIMING IS. PLAYING IN ORLANDO, IN THE NBA'S SUMMER LEAGUE, IT WAS ADAMS' FIRST GAME SINCE OKLAHOMA PICKED HIM AS THE 12TH NBA DRAFTEE. I DON'T KNOW. I WAS REAL NERVOUS AND EXCITED ABOUT IT AT THE SAME TIME. BUT I DUNNO, I'M JUST GLAD TO FINALLY GET ONE UNDERNEATH MY BELT. THE GAME WAS PHYSICAL AND FAST. YOUNG PLAYERS LOOKING TO PROVE THEMSELVES, AND IT'S THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF COMPETITION ADAMS HAS EVER FACED. THE MAJORITY OF PLAYERS HERE ARE NBA ROOKIES ` FRESH FROM EITHER COLLEGE OR THE NBA'S DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE. THE SUMMER LEAGUE HAS TRADITIONALLY BEEN THEIR OPPORTUNITY TO PROVE THEIR READINESS FOR THE MAIN COMPETITION. AND WITH NBA CHAMPIONSHIP-WINNING COACHES LOOKING ON, ADAMS' 7FT, 150KG FRAME HELD HIM IN GOOD PHYSICAL STEAD. THE PHYSICALITY'S NOT TOO BAD, EH. OKC HAVE DONE A GOOD JOB AT JUST, LIKE, TELLING ME WHAT TO EXPECT. OUTSIDE OF THE ALLEY-OOP, THOUGH, IT WAS DEFENCE AND REBOUNDING, RATHER THAN SCORING, WHERE ADAMS DID WELL. I THOUGHT IT WAS SOLID. I THINK THAT HE HAS A LOT TO LEARN, AND HE KNOWS IT. AND HE ASKS A LOT OF QUESTIONS. HE'S LIKE A SPONGE. HE REALLY` I THINK HE` HE REALLY SOAKS THINGS UP VERY WELL. AND HE'LL HAVE PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITY TO IMPROVE QUICKLY, WITH THE SUMMER LEAGUE RUNNING UNTIL THE END OF THE WEEK. JACK TAME, ONE NEWS, ORLANDO, FLORIDA. AFTER NEARLY 80 YEARS, A BRITISH MAN HAS AGAIN WON THE FAMOUS WIMBLEDON TITLE. ANDY MURRAY SHOCKED TOP SEED NOVAK DJOKOVIC IN STRAIGHT SETS IN A FINAL THAT APPEARED ONE-SIDED BUT TOOK PLENTY OF SCOTTISH GRIT AND DETERMINATION TO WIN. MARK HATHAWAY HAS THE CELEBRATIONS. CHEERS THAT WILL ECHO AROUND WIMBLEDON FOR YEARS TO COME. CROWD ROARS THE WAITING IS OVER. LAST YEAR'S WIMBLEDON RUNNER-UP AND FIVE-TIME DEFEATED GRAND SLAM FINALLIST ANDY MURRAY STILL IN DISBELIEF. YEAH, I STILL CAN'T` CAN'T BELIEVE IT. CAN'T GET MY HEAD AROUND IT. I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. THE BEST BRITISH MEN'S RESULT SINCE FRED PERRY'S THIRD AND FINAL WIMBLEDON TITLE IN 1936. BUT SUCCESS HERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A LONG-TERM GOAL FOR THE SCOTTISH LAD FROM DUNBLANE. I'LL BE PLAYING AT WIMBLEDON IN FOUR YEARS IN SENIOR WIMBLEDON, AND MAYBE JUNIOR WIMBLEDON IN TWO YEARS. THE JOURNEY NOW COMPLETE, ALTHOUGH, IN NOVAK DJOKOVIC, THE MOST FORMIDABLE FINAL HURDLE. THERE WAS NOTHING SIMPLE ABOUT THIS STRAIGHT-SETS WIN. AT TWO SETS UP, MURRAY FOUND HIMSELF 4-2 DOWN. NERVOUS TIMES ALL ROUND. YET, IN THE 50-DEGREE FURNACE OF CENTRE COURT, HE EMPHATICALLY BROKE BACK. CROWD CHEERS HE'S DONE IT! GOODNESS. MURRAY WAS THEN 40-0 UP SERVING FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. DJOKOVIC AGAIN GOT HIS HAND ON THE THROAT, TRYING TO FORCE THAT ALL TOO FAMILIAR CHOKE OUT OF MURRAY. HE WAS ALL OVER THE COURT AND PLAYED FANTASTIC TENNIS. NO QUESTION ABOUT IT ` HE DESERVED TO WIN. AFTER SURVIVING DEUCE FIVE TIMES, AND THREE GRUELLING HOURS ON COURT, MURRAY CLINCHED IT. CROWD ROARS GAME, SET AND MATCH, MURRAY. THREE SETS TO LOVE. RELIEF FOR SO MANY, BUT POSSIBLY MOST OF ALL FOR JUDE MURRAY. COUNTLESS MATCHES WATCHING HER SON, THEN, IN THE FINEST HOUR OF THEM ALL, HE ALMOST FORGOT TO GIVE HER A HUG. 'GET BACK HERE, BOY!' THE VICTORY, THOUGH, IS SOMETHING BRITISH SPORTS FANS WILL NEVER FORGET. MARK HATHAWAY, ONE NEWS. MURRAY'S WIN IS PARTICULARLY SWEET FOR THOSE IN HIS HOME PATCH, DUNBLANE, THE TOWN OF THE TRAGIC 1996 MASSACRE OF 17 PEOPLE, MAINLY CHILDREN, AT ANDY MURRAY'S PRIMARY SCHOOL. THE STREETS TODAY HAD A FAR HAPPIER RING TO THEM. THE GRUELLING CENTRE SHOWDOWN FINALLY YIELDED THEIR BOY AS CHAMPION. WILD CHEERING HE GROUND DJOKOVIC INTO THE DUST! HE TRIED TO COME BACK... WORLD NUMBER ONE? NOT FOR LONG! ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS. AS MENTIONED THERE, NOVAK DJOKOVIC REMAINS WORLD NUMBER ONE, WHILE MURRAY'S WIMBLEDON WIN CONSOLIDATES HIS NUMBER TWO STATUS. AS ROBBIE DEANS' WALLABIES ROLE APPEARS TO BE COMING TO AN ABRUPT END, HIS OLD CRUSADERS TEAM IS STARTING TO PEAK INTO PLAY-OFF MODE, WITH ONE ROUND OF THE SUPER RUGBY COMPETITION TO GO. THE FORMER CHAMPIONS' BIG WIN OVER THE CHIEFS HAS THEM HUMMING BEFORE PLAYING THE HURRICANES IN CHRISTCHURCH THIS FRIDAY NIGHT. THAT'S WHY WE PLAY THE GAME, IS TO GET INTO THE PLAY-OFFS AND WIN THE COMPETITION. AND, YOU KNOW, WE'RE` WE'RE SO CLOSE, AND WE REALISE WE'VE JUST GOT TO KEEP BUILDING MOMENTUM. IT APPEARS RICHIE MCCAW REMAINS ON TRACK TO MAKE HIS RETURN THROUGH CLUB RUGBY, POSSIBLY THIS WEEKEND. HE IS READY TO PLAY AGAIN, BECAUSE HE IS BECOMING QUITE ANNOYING AT TRAINING. SO HE'S, UM, HE'S CHOMPING AT THE BIT, THAT'S FOR SURE. THE CRUSADERS ARE UNSURE IF ALL BLACKS LOCK LUKE ROMANO WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR THE LAST ROUND MATCH AGAINST THE HURRICANES. HE'S HAD SCANS LATE TODAY ON AN INJURED ANKLE. UTILITY BACK TOM MARSHALL IS BIDDING FAREWELL TO THE CRUSADERS ` HE'S SIGNED ON FOR THE NEXT TWO SEASONS WITH BUSY RECRUITERS THE CHIEFS. THERE ARE SIX NEW NAMES ON NZ CRICKET'S LIST OF 20 CONTRACTED PLAYERS FOR NEXT SEASON, BUT THE HUNT FOR AN ALL-ROUNDER IS STILL ON. BOWLERS MITCHELL MCCLENAGHAN AND BRUCE MARTIN AND BATSMEN HAMISH RUTHERFORD, TOM LATHAM, COLIN MUNRO AND COREY ANDERSON GET CONTRACTS FOR THE FIRST TIME. COACH MIKE HESSON BELIEVES ANDERSON IS THE BEST PROSPECT TO FILL THE VACANT ALL-ROUNDER'S SPOT LEFT BY DAN VETTORI, BUT CONCEDES THERE'S NO OBVIOUS SOLUTION. THE THING WITH A GENUINE ALL-ROUNDER IS YOU'VE GOT TO BE GOOD ENOUGH TO BAT IN THE TOP SIX OR BE IN THE BEST FOUR BOWLERS IN THE COUNTRY. SO WE'RE, LIKE EVERY COUNTRY, STRIVING FOR THAT GENUINE ALL-ROUNDER. IN TWO OTHER CHANGES, PETER FULTON AND GRANT ELLIOTT RETURN AFTER SEVERAL YEARS ON THE OUTER. THE WARRIORS' NRL WINNING STREAK HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO AN END BY THE TABLE-TOPPING SOUTH SYDNEY IN PERTH. THE WARRIORS JUMPED OUT TO A 13-6 HALF-TIME LEAD AS KONRAD HURRELL CRASHED HIS WAY OVER. JOHNSON TO HURRELL. HURRELL, STRAIGHT INTO THE TOP... STILL GOING! KONRAD HURRELL, THE WRECKING BALL! BUT THE MOMENTUM SWUNG SOUTHS' WAY IN THE SECOND SPELL AS THEY WORE DOWN THE SCRAMBLING WARRIORS DEFENCE. THE RABBITOHS SCORED 18 UNANSWERED POINTS TO WIN 30-13 AND GO FOUR POINTS CLEAR AT THE TOP OF THE LADDER. THE LOSS LEAVES THE WARRIORS TWO POINTS OUTSIDE THE TOP EIGHT IN 11TH PLACE. INDYCAR DRIVER SCOTT DIXON'S SEASON IS LOOKING UP AFTER A WIN AT THE POCONO 400. DIXON'S BATTLED BAD LUCK THIS YEAR, ONLY HOLDING THE LEAD FOR ONE LAP ALL SEASON, BUT HE MANAGED 38 IN FRONT AT THE PENNSYLVANIA TRACK, TEAM CHIP GANASSI TAKING A RARE CLEAN SWEEP OF THE PODIUM POSITIONS. AND WE ALL STARTED TOWARDS THE BACK. SO IT WAS ALL FANTASTIC, THOUGH. IT'S BEEN A LONG DROUGHT, MAN, ALMOST A YEAR. SO IT'S BEEN` IT'S FANTASTIC TO BE BACK IN WINNER'S CIRCLE. THE WIN ELEVATES DIXON TO FOURTH IN THE SERIES STANDINGS. IN FORMULA 1 CHAMPIONSHIP, LEADER SEBASTIAN VETTEL HAS MANAGED HIS FIRST WIN ON HOME SOIL, LEAVING LEWIS HAMILTON FOR DUST ON HIS WAY INTO THE FIRST CORNER AT THE GERMAN GRAND PRIX. TEAMMATE MARK WEBBER RAN INTO PROBLEMS AT AN EARLY PIT STOP. A WHEEL'S GONE. OH NO! MARK WEBBER INTO THE PIT` ALL: OH! OH NO. BUT IT HITS A GUY IN THE PIT. THAT'S HORRIBLE TO SEE. THE CAMERAMAN SUFFERED A BROKEN COLLAR BONE AND RIBS. RED BULL WAS FINED $50,000 FOR THE UNSAFE PIT RELEASE. IN OTHER DRAMA, JULES BIANCHI HAD TO MAKE A HASTY EXIT FOLLOWING AN ENGINE BLOWOUT. THE WIN IS VETTEL'S 30TH CAREER VICTORY. PLENTY OF DRAMA THANKS, ANDREW. AFTER THE BREAK ` CHANGES ON THE WEATHER FRONT. IT'S TIME FOR THE WARM COATS.

IT'LL GET PROGRESSIVELY COLDER THROUGH THE WEEK, BEGINNING WITH SOME SNOW IN THE DEEP SOUTH TONIGHT. WATCH THESE PASSES TONIGHT. FOR WEATHER, SEE ONENEWS.CO.NZ MEANTIME, A FRESHEN-UP FOR THESE AREAS. SOUTHERN SKI FIELDS TREBLE CONE TODAY A KIWI CHICK BORN IN THE MARLBOROUGH SOUNDS COULD HELP SAVE OUR MOST ENDANGERED KIWI, THE ROWI, FROM EXTINCTION. THE CHICK TODAY MADE THE JOURNEY TO THE KIWI SANCTUARY ON MANA ISLAND, OFF WELLINGTON'S KAPITI COAST. THE ROWI POPULATION'S JUST 375, AND WITH ABOUT A THIRD OF THE BIRDS UNPRODUCTIVE, IT'S HOPED THIS CHICK WILL BREED AND BOOST THE POPULATION. THE REAL THREAT FOR THIS SPECIES OF KIWI IS THE NUMBERS ARE JUST SO SMALL, THAT THERE ISN'T THAT GENETIC DIVERSITY. THIS CHICK GIVES US HOPE. HOPE THE LITTLE KIWI WILL SETTLE IN AFTER A SPECIAL FLIGHT TO ITS NEW HOME. AND ONE NEWS TONIGHT HAS MORE ON THE RESETTLEMENT MISSION, LATER AT 10.25.
