TONIGHT ` GABLE TOSTEE WAITS TO HEAR HIS FATE. THE MURDER CASE THAT'S CAPTIVATED BOTH SIDES OF THE TASMAN IS NOW IN THE HANDS OF A JURY. PLUS THE ISLAMIC STATE'S LAST STAND IN IRAQ. A MAJOR MILITARY OFFENSIVE ON THE PRIZED CITY OF MOSUL BEGINS. AND AARON SMITH TAKES HIMSELF OUT OF THE BLEDISLOE CUP MATCH. PLUS, THE VERDICT ON HIS TOILET TRYST FROM A DISCIPLINARY HEARING. DUE TO THE LIVE NATURE OF TONIGHT, WE APOLOGISE FOR THE LACK OF CAPTIONS FOR SOME ITEMS. FIRST TONIGHT, THE JURY IN THE TINDER-DATE MURDER TRIAL HAS BEEN TOLD TO TRUST THE FACTS, NOT THEIR FEELINGS. IN THE MORNING, THEY'LL RESUME DELIBERATING THE FATE OF GABLE TOSTEE, THE MAN ACCUSED OF MURDERING WARRIENA WRIGHT ON THE GOLD COAST TWO YEARS AGO. AUSTRALIA CORRESPONDENT RUTH WYNN-WILLIAMS WITH THIS. THE JURY HAS SPENT AROUND 2 AND A HALF HOURS NOW CONSIDERING THE VERDICT HERE AT THE BRISBANE SUPREME COURT. THEY HAVE NOW BEEN DISMISSED FOR THE DAY, BUT THAT'S AFTER PUTTING SOME QUESTIONS TO JUSTICE BYRNE. THEY BEGAN DELIBERATING AFTER CONSIDERABLE DIRECTION FROM THE JUDGE. HE TOLD THEM TO FOCUS ON THREE HOURS OF AUDIO THAT HAS BECOME SO CENTRAL TO THIS CASE. HE TOLD THEM THEY MUST MAKE THEIR FINAL JUDGEMENT OF THAT AUDIO WITHOUT THE BENEFIT OF HINDSIGHT. THE JURY HAS THE OPTION OF MURDER OR MANSLAUGHTER IN THIS CASE. THOSE VERDICTS DEPEND ON WHETHER OR NOT GABLE TOSTEE INTENDED TO CAUSE WARRIENA WRIGHT ANY HARM. THE CROWN SAYS HE DID, THAT SHE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO ATTEMPT THE DANGEROUS ESCAPE THAT ENDED UP CAUSING HER DEATH. GABLE TOSTEE PLEADED NOT GUILTY. THE JURY WILL RESUME DELIBERATION IN THE MORNING. A YOUNG FAMILY, INCLUDING TWO CHILDREN WITH SEVERE DISABILITIES, HAS BEEN FOUND DEAD IN A HOUSE IN SYDNEY'S NORTH. POLICE FOUND THE BODIES OF THE PARENTS, THEIR DAUGHTER (11) AND SON (10) AFTER A CALL FROM A CONCERNED FRIEND. THE FAMILY DOG WAS ALSO DEAD. POLICE ARE DESCRIBING THE SCENE AS 'EXTREMELY CONFRONTING'. THIS IS VERY SERIOUS. TWO YOUNG CHILDREN HAVE DIED. TWO ADULTS HAVE DIED. I JUST WANT TO KEEP THIS INVESTIGATION NICE AND CRISP AND UNTAINTED. POLICE ARE LOOKING INTO POISONING AS THE CAUSE OF DEATH. THERE WAS NO SIGN OF VIOLENCE AT THE HOUSE. 'DON'T WORRY. WE'VE GOT YOU COVERED.' THE MESSAGE FROM HOSPITALS WHO SAY THEY'RE FULLY PREPPED FOR THE JUNIOR DOCTORS STRIKE. FROM 7 TOMORROW MORNING, AROUND 3000 WILL WALK OFF THE JOB FROM PUBLIC HOSPITALS FOR TWO DAYS. SENIOR DOCTORS, NURSES AND NON-UNIONISED JUNIOR DOCTORS WILL PROVIDE ESSENTIAL EMERGENCY.. AND MATERNITY SERVICES. HERE'S HEALTH REPORTER LORELI MASON ON THE CONTINGENCY PLANS. JUNIOR DOCTOR TIM HOPGOOD WILL WALK AWAY FROM HIS SHIFT AT AUCKLAND'S STARSHIP HOSPITAL. I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED THAT IT'S ACTUALLY COME TO THIS. NONE OF US WANTED TO GO ON STRIKE. HE'S ONE OF 3000 JUNIOR DOCTOR UNION MEMBERS STRIKING FOR 48 HOURS. THEY WANT 12-IN-A-ROW DAY SHIFTS REDUCED TO 10 AND THEIR SEVEN-IN-A-ROW NIGHT SHIFT ROSTER REDUCED TO FOUR. BY THE START OF THAT SECOND WEEK, YOU'RE BEHIND, YOU'RE TIRED, YOU'RE FATIGUED. EVERY DECISION IS SO MUCH HARDER TO MAKE. THEIR UNION SAYS THEY'RE NOT FOR TURNING. WE'RE UNDER INSTRUCTIONS THAT IF WE DON'T GET THIS SETTLED IN NEGOTIATIONS AFTER THE STRIKE, THEN WE'RE TO PROCEED WITH FURTHER STRIKE ACTION. BUT THE DHB'S AND OTHERS ARGUE WHAT'S BEING DEMANDED IS UNREASONABLE. WE'RE HAPPY WITH THE JUNIOR DOCTORS WORKING SHORTER SHIFTS. WE'RE JUST SIMPLY SAYING IF YOU'RE NOT WORKING 12 DAYS, WE WOULDN'T PAY YOU FOR 12 DAYS. IT'S ALL A HEADACHE FOR THE COUNTRY'S 20 DHB'S. IT'S NEVER EASY WHEN THERE ARE A GROUP OF STAFF WHO ARE NOT GOING TO BE TURNING UP FOR WORK. BUT THEY'VE SPENT THE PAST FORTNIGHT IN HIGH-LEVEL CONTINGENCY PLANNING. HAVING TALKED TO EACH OF THE DHB'S THIS MORNING, THAT THEY'RE AS PREPARED AS THEY CAN BE RIGHT NOW. SEVERAL HUNDRED JUNIOR DOCTORS WILL STILL WORK PROVIDING LIFE-PRESERVING COVER. AROUND 300 NON-UNION MEMBER COLLEAGUES WILL BE AT WORK TOO, ASSISTING SENIOR DOCTORS, WHO'LL HOLD THE FORT. NATURALLY PEOPLE ARE FEELING A BIT NERVOUS, COS THEY'RE DOING THINGS DIFFERENTLY, BUT I THINK THERE ARE GOOD PLANS IN PLACE. ADDING TO THE DHB'S STRESS, NEWS THE SENIOR DOCTORS UNION'S NOT HAPPY WITH THE $180 TO $500 HOURLY RATE ` IN ADDITION TO THEIR BASE SALARY ` MOST DHB'S ARE OFFERING SENIOR MEDICS TO COVER. THE UNION WANTS THAT RATE, STRUCK AT THE 2008 JUNIOR DOCTORS STRIKES, INFLATION ADJUSTED. THE DHB'S HAVE SAID NO. DESPITE THIS, SENIOR DOCTORS WILL STILL WORK. A BIT OF A DISTRACTION, I SUPPOSE, BUT THE REAL CHALLENGE FOR US IS TO GET THROUGH THIS AS SAFELY AS POSSIBLE. AND THAT'S SOMETHING ALL SIDES WANT. A MAJOR BATTLE'S RAGING IN NORTHERN IRAQ. TENS OF THOUSANDS OF GOVERNMENT FORCES BACKED BY COALITION AIRSTRIKES ARE JUST HOURS INTO AN OFFENSIVE TO RETAKE MOSUL FROM ISIS. THE FIGHT'S A DECISIVE ONE. THE CITY'S THE LAST IN IRAQ UNDER ISLAMIC STATE CONTROL. NAOMI TAN HAS THE LATEST. IT'S BEING CALLED THE ISLAMIC STATE'S LAST STAND IN IRAQ ` THE BATTLE TO RECAPTURE THE ISIS STRONGHOLD OF MOSUL, ITS MOST PRIZED POSSESSION, IS UNDERWAY. TRANSLATOR: THE OPERATION TO LIBERATE MOSUL HAS BEGUN. I DECLARE TODAY THE BEGINNING OF THIS HEROIC OPERATION TO LIBERATE YOU FROM THE BRUTALITY AND TERRORISM OF DAESH. THE ASSAULT ON THE CITY IS BACKED BY THE US-LED COALITION, WHO WERE EARLIER PATROLLING THE SKIES AS KURDISH FIGHTERS PREPARED. TODAY AROUND 30,000 IRAQI GOVERNMENT TROOPS MOVED ON MOSUL, IRAQ'S SECOND LARGEST CITY AND THE LAST UNDER ISIS CONTROL. THE LAST MAJOR CENTRE TO BE LIBERATED FROM THE TERRORIST GROUP WAS FALLUJAH BACK IN JUNE. RAMADI WAS RECAPTURED IN DECEMBER AND TIKRIT IN APRIL OF LAST YEAR. IT'S THOUGHT AROUND 5000 MILITANTS ARE READY TO DEFEND MOSUL. THERE ARE ALSO REPORTS OF A GROWING NETWORK OF ESCAPE TUNNELS. RECENT AIRSTRIKES DESTROYED ONE OF THE CITY'S MAIN BRIDGES, LIKELY DONE TO MAKE IT HARDER FOR ISIS FIGHTERS TO FLEE. BUT THE FOCUS IS ALSO ON THE HUMAN COST. IT'S ESTIMATED THAT MORE THAN A MILLION CIVILIANS WILL BE DISPLACED. THE UNITED NATIONS SAYS IT'S BRACING ITSELF FOR THE WORLD'S WORST HUMANITARIAN DISASTER THIS YEAR. IF YOU WERE TO SEE A FORCED POPULATION MOVEMENT OF MORE THAN 150,000 PEOPLE, AT THAT STAGE, THERE ISN'T AN INSTITUTION IN THE WORLD THAT CAN COPE WITH THAT SCALE OF MOVEMENT. THE FIGHT IS EXPECTED TO LAST WEEKS, IF NOT MONTHS, AND IF THE LIBERATION OF FALLUJAH AND RAMADI ARE ANYTHING TO GO BY, IT'LL BE A BLOODY BATTLE. NAOMI TAN, 1 NEWS. CNN'S ARWA DAMON IS ON THE ZARTEK MOUNTAINS OVERLOOKING THE BATTLEGROUNDS LEADING TO MOSUL. SHE SAYS THE TACTICS ISIS WILL USE WILL BE BRUTAL. IRAQ'S PRIME MINISTER ANNOUNCED THE BEGINNING OF THE OPERATION FOR MOSUL AT 2 O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING, LOCAL TIME. WE BEGAN HEARING FIGHTER JETS OVERHEAD, EXPLOSIONS IN THE DISTANCE, AND AS THE SUN HAS BEEN COMING UP, THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASE IN OUTGOING ARTILLERY AND OTHER TYPES OF FIRE. WE HAVE ALSO STILL BEEN HEARING DIFFERENT KINDS OF EXPLOSIONS IN THE PLAINS DOWN BELOW US. THIS IS A BATTLE THAT PROMISES TO BE VERY VERY DIFFICULT, AND OF COURSE WHAT IS OF UTMOST CONCERN AT THIS STATE IS THE FATE OF WELL OVER ONE MILLION CIVILIANS THAT STILL REMAIN WITHIN THE CITY. FROM WHAT WE CAN GATHER, THE IRAQIS ARE BRACING THEMSELVES FOR A VERY TOUGH BATTLE. THEY HAVE SEEN ISIS SENDING WAVE AFTER WAVE OF SUICIDE BOMBERS, BOOBY-TRAPPED BUILDINGS, INLAY ROAD WITH IEDS AS WELL AS NOT HESITATE TO USE THE CIVILIAN POPULATION AS HUMAN SHIELDS. WE HAVE SPOKEN TO NUMEROUS FAMILIES WHO SAY THAT ISIS FORCED THEM TO STAY WITHIN THEIR HOMES ALL THE WHILE USING THEIR WINDOWS AND DOORWAYS AS FIGHTING POSITIONS. WE ARE ALSO HEARING REPORTS THAT ISIS RELEASED SOME OF ITS OWN PRISONERS FROM JAILS, PEOPLE THAT IT HAD DETAINED FOR THINGS SUCH AS SMOKING, WEARING WESTERN CLOTHING, SHAVING THEIR BEARDS, RELEASING THEM AND HAVING THEM DIG COMPLEX TUNNEL SYSTEMS. WE HAVE ALSO BEEN HEARING VARIOUS REPORTS OF ISIS EXECUTING SOME OF ITS OWN FOR ATTEMPTING TO FLEE THE CITY. NONE OF THE SECURITY FORCES OR THE COALITION KNOW EXACTLY WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN THEY REACH THE CITY ITSELF. THIS IS A DECISIVE BATTLE FOR IRAQ AND FOR THE REGION. UNDER-FIRE ALL BLACK AARON SMITH HAS PULLED OUT OF SATURDAY'S BLEDISLOE CUP TEST AGAINST AUSTRALIA AT EDEN PARK. IT FOLLOWS A HEARING INTO HIS TRYST WITH A WOMAN IN AN AIRPORT TOILET, WHICH FOUND HIS BEHAVIOUR AMOUNTED TO SERIOUS MISCONDUCT. HE'S USUALLY ONE OF THE FIRST NAMES ON THE TEAM SHEET, BUT COME SATURDAY NIGHT, AARON SMITH WILL BE NOWHERE TO BE SEEN AGAIN. THE STAR HALFBACK HAS VOLUNTARILY STEPPED ASIDE FOR THE BLEDISLOE CUP MATCH AGAINST AUSTRALIA IN AUCKLAND. HE MADE THE CALL AFTER A MISCONDUCT HEARING INTO THAT INCIDENT IN A CHRISTCHURCH AIRPORT BATHROOM LAST MONTH. AT THE CHRISTCHURCH AIRPORT, AARON AND A FEMALE FRIEND WERE SEEN BY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC TO ENTER THE DISABLED TOILETS. HE WAS SUSPENDED FOR ONE MATCH AND SENT HOME AFTER AN EMOTIONAL PUBLIC APOLOGY. IF YOU COULD RESPECT ME AND MY PARTNER IN THIS SITUATION. (SIGHS) I'M JUST TRYING TO GET HOME. AS WELL AS ACKNOWLEDGING HIS OMISSION FROM THIS WEEKEND'S CLASH, THE HEARING CONCLUDED SMITH'S BEHAVIOUR AMOUNTED TO SERIOUS MISCONDUCT. HE'S RECEIVED A FORMAL WARNING AND WILL FORFEIT HIS SELECTION FEES AS WELL AS COMMITTING TO GETTING SUPPORT TO DEAL WITH THE PERSONAL ISSUES. THE DECISION IS DESCRIBED AS THE BEST OUTCOME FOR THIS ALL BLACKS SIDE. NUMBER ONE, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN THE CENTRE OF A MEDIA CIRCUS, AND NUMBER TWO, THAT MEDIA CIRCUS WOULD HAVE TAKEN AWAY FROM WHAT POTENTIALLY IS AN EXTRAORDINARY ACHIEVEMENT BY THIS ALL BLACK TEAM OF SETTING A WORLD RECORD. DESPITE SOME PUBLIC UPROAR, PHIL GIFFORD BELIEVES MOST WILL WELCOME SMITH BACK INTO THE TEAM WITH OPEN ARMS. IF ANYONE WANTS TO DAMAGE HIM, THEN THIS WILL BE A WAY TO DO IT, BUT I THINK IN BROAD TERMS, I THINK HIS CAREER WILL CONTINUE AND CONTINUE TO FLOURISH. SMITH WILL CERTAINLY WANT HIS ON-FIELD ACTION TO BE THE ONLY TALK WHEN HE RETURNS. JUST ONE CLICK ON THE WRONG SOCIAL MEDIA LINK COULD BRING YOUR BUSINESS TO ITS KNEES. THAT'S THE WARNING TONIGHT FROM NZ BOSSES WHO ARE IN THE CAPITAL TO FIND WAYS TO FIGHT CYBER CRIME. IN A DAY WHEN YOU CAN ORDER A DRONE TO DELIVER YOUR DINNER BY AIR OR BY LAND AND CONTROL EVERYTHING FROM A CAR TO YOUR HOME FROM THE PALM OF YOUR HAND, YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS ONLINE IN MORE PLACES THAN EVER AND ALSO MORE EXPOSED, WITH 825,000 NZERS FALLING VICTIM TO CYBER CRIME IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS. CYBER CRIME IS RAMPANT. IT'S INCREASING. I THINK OF IT LIKE THE NEW FRONTIER OF CRIME. WE'RE CONSTANTLY SEEING OUR INFRASTRUCTURE SCANNED AND PROBED AND PRODDED. THE ATTACKERS ARE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR A WAY IN. AND FOR BUSINESSES MEETING IN WELLINGTON TODAY, THAT WAY IN IS NOW INCREASINGLY THROUGH THE EMAIL AND SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS OF THEIR OWN STAFF. IN THE OLD DAYS, THEY'D SIT OUTSIDE IN THE VAN AND WATCH THE COMING AND GOINGS OF THE WAREHOUSE. NOW THEY CONVINCE YOU THAT YOU'RE THEIR FRIEND, AND YOU CLICK ON THEM ON A SOCIAL MEDIA SITE. YOU CLICK A LINK. THEY PUT SOME CODE IN, AND THEN THEY WATCH YOUR BUSINESS. THAT ONE CLICK COULD TAKE DOWN A BUSINESS. RECENT RESEARCH SHOWS ABOUT 60% OF SOCIAL MEDIA USERS ACCEPT FRIEND REQUESTS FROM PEOPLE THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW AND HAVE NO PRIVACY PROTECTION, LEAVING THEIR PERSONAL INFORMATION EXPOSED TO ANYONE. WE'RE DOING A LOT OF WORK AROUND MAKING SURE THAT ALL OF OUR STAFF ARE EFFECTIVELY PROVIDING THAT FRONTLINE FOR US. BUT IT'S HARD FOR BUSINESSES TO FIND CYBER SECURITY STAFF TO HOLD THE LINE, WITH A MAJOR SHORTAGE OF SKILLED WORKERS TO FILL ABOUT A MILLION LUCRATIVE JOBS ON OFFER AROUND THE WORLD. THE STANDARD VIEW OF SECURITY HAS ALWAYS BEEN THE HACKER IN THE BASEMENT, SITTING WITH THE HOODIE ON, DRINKING V AND EATING PIZZA AND CODING AWAY. THAT'S NOT WHAT SECURITY IS. SECURITY'S MUCH BROADER THAN THAT. BUT GETTING PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THAT IS VERY VERY DIFFICULT. MAKING YOUR PASSWORD DIFFICULT AND CHANGING IT OFTEN ARE SOME SIMPLE WAYS TO HELP KEEP YOUR INFORMATION AWAY FROM PRYING EYES. JUST AHEAD ` THE FIGHT AGAINST P GETS A CASH INJECTION. WHY THE GOVERMENT'S HAVING TO DOUBLE ITS SPENDING ON ANTI-DRUG MEASURES. A MASS OVERDOSE IN AUSTRALIA. 16 PEOPLE HOSPITALISED AFTER TAKING A SCARY SUBSTANCE KNOWN AS THE ZOMBIE DRUG. AUSSIE MUM SALLY FAULKNER GIVES HER FIRST INTERVIEW SINCE THE BOTCHED OPERATION TO SNATCH HER KIDS IN BEIRUT. THE WAR ON METHAMPHETAMINE IN NZ IS GETTING A $15M CASH INJECTION. MOST OF THAT WILL BE SPENT ON TREATING ADDICTS, A MOVE THOSE ON THE FRONT LINES SAY IS LONG OVERDUE. POLITICAL REPORTER ANDREA VANCE HAS MORE. HOOKED ON P AND NOWHERE TO TURN. METHAMPHETAMINE ADDICTS ARE WAITING UP TO SIX MONTHS FOR TREATMENT. SO THE GOVERNMENT IS PLEDGING ALMOST $9M TO TURN THAT AROUND. IT'S PART OF A NEW $15M PACKAGE TO FIGHT A WAR ON P. THE REST WILL GO TO POLICE AND CUSTOMS. THE DATA DOESN'T SUPPORT THE VIEW THAT THE SITUATION IS GETTING WORSE. IT ACTUALLY ARGUES IT IS GETTING BETTER. MICHAEL HOGAN WAS ADDICTED TO P FOR THE BEST PART OF A DECADE, AND HE SPENT TWO OF THOSE YEARS ON A WAITING LIST FOR TREATMENT. WHEN YOU PUT YOUR HAND UP AS A METH ADDICT, YOU NEED HELP. THAT'S SCARY TO PUT YOUR HAND UP. CLEAN FOR FOUR YEARS, HE NOW WORKS WITH A PORIRUA DROP-IN GROUP. IT WAS SET UP BY LIZ MCMILLAN AND HER HUSBAND DENNIS MAKALIO WHO COULDN'T GET HELP FOR A YOUNG FRIEND. I ENDED UP TAKING HER HOME AND DETOXING HER IN MY OWN HOME. WE DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT SERVICES IN THE RIGHT PARTS OF THE COUNTRY. WE'RE SEEING NOW IN PROVINCIAL NZ A REAL DEMAND FOR METHAMPHETAMINE TREATMENT, BUT SERVICES SIMPLY DON'T EXIST. SINCE 2009, THE GOVERNMENT WILL HAVE COMMITTED A TOTAL OF $31M ON RELEASING METH'S GRIP ON NZ. HOWEVER, LAST YEAR, COURT PROCEEDINGS FOR POSSESSION WENT UP BY 22%. EXPERTS SAY TOO MUCH HAS GONE INTO CATCHING DEALERS, WITH NOT ENOUGH SPENT ON REDUCING DEMAND. IF I WAS A METH DEALER, AND YOU BUSTED ME, MIKE WOULD TAKE OVER MY BUSINESS UNTIL I GOT OUT OF JAIL. SO THE INVESTMENT GOES INTO POLICE, INTO PROTECTING OUR BORDERS, AND IT GOES INTO COURTS, AND GOES INTO PRISONS, HUGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY AND NO INVESTMENT INTO HELP. HI. CAN I SPEAK WITH YOUR` SOMEONE TO DO WITH ADDICTIONS, PLEASE? HELP THIS FORMER P ADDICT-TURNED COUNSELLOR SAYS CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH. 16 PEOPLE ARE IN A GOLD COAST HOSPITAL AFTER OVERDOSING ON A SUBSTANCE LABELLED AMERICA'S SCARIEST DRUG AT THE WEEKEND. POLICE BELIEVE IT'S FLAKKA, WHICH CAUSES USERS TO HALLUCINATE, HAVE SEIZURES, BITE PEOPLE AND IN RARE CASES COMMIT MURDER. IT COSTS LESS THAN $10 A HIT. HERE'S CHANNEL NINE'S CARRIE-ANNE GREENBANK. DANIEL NEWBERRY HAS SPENT THE PAST TWO DAYS IN AN INDUCED COMA IN HOSPITAL. HE SAYS HE WAS GIVEN DRUGS AT SIN CITY BEFORE THIS HORRIFYING REACTION. HE'S ONE OF 16 TO BE RUSHED TO HOSPITAL AFTER OVERDOSING ON A DRUG BELIEVED TO BE THE ZOMBIE DRUG FLAKKA WITH ANOTHER VICTIM STILL IN A CRITICAL CONDITION. THE RISKS COULDN'T BE HIGHER. DO NOT PUT YOUR LIVES AT RISK. IT IS NOT WORTH IT. REVELLERS WILL BE CLOSELY MONITORED BY POLICE AT THIS WEEKEND'S GOLD COAST 600. WE'RE DOING WHAT WE ALREADY HAVE IN PLACE IS BAG CHECKS ON EVERY GATE ENTRANT. WE HAVE SECURITY ALL THROUGH THE VENUE. AND SCHOOL LEAVERS ARE BEING WARNED ABOUT THE DEADLY DRUG AS WELL WITH SCHOOLIE CELEBRATIONS A MONTH AWAY. WE'RE TALKING ABOUT 52,000 IN HIGH-SCHOOL EDUCATION PROGRAMMES LEADING UP TO SCHOOLIES AND SOME OF THE BIGGEST ADVICE IS REALLY LOOKING AFTER YOUR MATES. STILL, CRIMINOLOGISTS SAY MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE. ALL THE WARNING SIGNS ARE THERE THAT IF WE DON'T GET ON TOP OF THIS VERY SOON, IT WILL BE FAIRLY HARD TO CONTROL. HOW TO GET ON TOP OF IT IS THE QUESTION. FLAKKA IS BASED ON A SUBSTANCE CALLED ALPHA-PVP WHICH IS LEGAL IN CHINA AND USED BY SCIENTISTS IN LABS MAKING IT READILY AVAILABLE ON CHEMICAL SUPPLY WEBSITES. NUMEROUS SITES LIST THE DRUG WHICH CAN BE DELIVERED INTERNATIONALLY WITHIN A WEEK AND SOLD FOR AS LITTLE AS 80C FOR A STANDARD DOSE. POLICE ARE NOW RACING AGAINST THE CLOCK TO FIND OUT WHO SUPPLIED THESE DRUGS. THEY BELIEVE THEY WERE SOLD RIGHT HERE IN THE NIGHTCLUB PRECINCT OF SURFERS PARADISE. THE ADVICE TO ANYONE WHO TAKES IT IS SIMPLE. RING AN AMBULANCE. SALLY FAULKNER SAYS DESPERATION DROVE HER TO SNATCH HER CHILDREN IN BEIRUT AFTER THEIR FATHER BROKE HIS PROMISE TO RETURN THEM TO AUSTRALIA. THE BRISBANE MUM'S GIVEN HER FIRST INTERVIEW SINCE BEING RELEASED FROM A LEBANESE JAIL. IN ALL HONESTY, I WAS IN SHOCK. IN MY OWN HEAD, I KIND OF THOUGHT, WELL, IT WAS JUST GONNA BE A FEW DAYS AND EVERYTHING WILL BE ALL RIGHT. I JUST NEEDED TIME. BUT AS TIME WENT ON, YOU KNOW, A WEEK HAD PASSED, AND I THINK HE KIND OF WORE ME DOWN TO A POINT WHERE I WAS TOO SCARED TO DO ANYTHING. HE RETURNED, BUT IT WAS TWO WEEKS, AND WHEN HE CAME BACK, THAT'S WHEN (SIGHS) I GUESS I SAW THE SERIOUSNESS OF IT, BECAUSE HE WAS STILL THAT COLD PERSON. HE GAVE ME MY PASSPORT. HE SAID, 'YOU'RE GOING. LAHELA IS STAYING HERE.' AND I REFUSED AT FIRST. I SAID, 'I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE.' HE SAID, 'WELL, DO WHAT YOU WANT, BUT YOU'RE NOT TAKING LAHELA,' AND IT WAS ONLY IN THAT MOMENT WHEN I GOT MY PASSPORT AND I PHYSICALLY SAW IT IN MY HAND, I THOUGHT, 'OH MY GOD. THIS IS MY ONLY CHANCE TO POSSIBLY GET OUT.' I DON'T KNOW. I JUST` I PANICKED. BACK HERE NOW, AND A WARNING TO THOSE WHIPPING THE COVER OFF THE BARBIE AS WINTER RELEASES ITS GRIP. THERE'S BEEN A SPATE OF GAS BOTTLE EXPLOSIONS ACROSS THE DITCH, SOME WITH SERIOUS OUTCOMES. SO HERE'S WILL HINE ON HOW TO COOK WITH CARE. THIS WAS THE MOMENT A BACKYARD BARBECUE BECAME TOO HOT TO HANDLE. I HEARD A BIG BANG AND SCREAM, AND ACTUALLY THOUGHT SOMEBODY HAD DRIVEN INTO THE BACK OF A PARKED CAR. IT WAS IN FACT AN LPG CYLINDER EXPLODING INTO FLAMES. THE BLAST WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO MELT THE ROOF AND SHATTER WINDOWS AT THIS SYDNEY HOUSE. ONE PARTY-GOER WAS RUSHED TO HOSPITAL. HE HAD DOUSED HIMSELF IN WATER UNDER A NEIGHBOUR'S HOSE BECAUSE HIS HAIR WAS ON FIRE. IT'S NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. IN NEW SOUTH WALES ALONE, THERE HAVE BEEN EIGHT EXPLOSIONS INVOLVING LPG BOTTLES IN THE PAST WEEK. AND YESTERDAY, FOUR OF THOSE INCIDENTS PUT THREE PEOPLE IN HOSPITAL. IN NZ, FIREFIGHTERS KNOW ALL TOO WELL ABOUT THE DANGERS OF BARBECUING WITH GAS. ON AVERAGE, WE HAVE ABOUT 75 INCIDENTS A YEAR NATIONALLY, WHERE IT'S EITHER AN EXPLOSION, FIRE OR LEAK. THE BEST WAY TO CHECK FOR A GAS LEAK, PARTICULARLY AT THE START OF SUMMER OR WHEN CONNECTING A NEW BOTTLE, IS WITH SOME SOAPY WATER. WE'RE JUST SPRAYING SOME WATER AROUND ALL THE JOINS TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE SECURE. A LEAK WILL CAUSE AIR BUBBLES TO APPEAR IN THE SOAP, LIKE THIS. ANOTHER TIP ` IF THE BARBIE DOESN'T LIGHT, HOLD FIRE BEFORE TRYING AGAIN. TURN IT OFF AGAIN AND LET THE GAS DISSIPATE FOR FIVE MINUTES OR SO, BECAUSE OTHERWISE YOU'LL GET A RUSH OF FLAME, AND QUITE OFTEN YOU'LL GET CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT. AND EVEN WHEN YOU GET THE FOOD SIZZLING ON THE GRILL, IT DOESN'T MEAN YOU'RE OUT OF THE WOODS. DON'T FORGET THAT ONE ALL IMPORTANT RULE WHEN IT COMES TO COOKING ` WHILST YOU'RE BARBECUING, KEEP LOOKING WHILE YOU'RE COOKING, BECAUSE YOU CAN GET FAT FIRES. AND, OF COURSE, AT THE END, TURN OFF THE GAS AT THE BARBIE AND THE BOTTLE. A FEW TIPS THAT COULD JUST SAVE YOUR BACON. JUST AHEAD, YOUR WEATHER. PLUS, DATE NIGHT. WHY THEY'RE PUTTING ON MASKS TO REVEAL TRUE LOVE IN JAPAN. A JAPANESE DATING COMPANY'S TAKING THE SAYING 'DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER' TO A NEW LEVEL. THIS IS SPEED DATING BUT WITH STRICT RULES, WHERE THOSE LOOKING FOR LOVE MUST WEAR SURGICAL MASKS TO HIDE THEIR FACES. THE BRAINS BEHIND IT CLAIM THE MASKS HELP PEOPLE AVOID BEING SWAYED BY PHYSICAL FIRST IMPRESSIONS. IT'S JUST ONE OF A RAFT OF MEASURES BEING TAKEN TO TRY TO BOOST JAPAN'S MARRIAGE RATE, WHICH HAS FALLEN 50% OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS. HERE'S HOW IT'S LOOKING ON TUESDAY. FOR WEATHER, SEE TVNZ.CO.NZ THE TEMPER TRAP'S 'NEED YOUR LOVE' # THE ROAD IS PULLING ME INTO HER OPEN WEB, # AND FOR A MOMENT I ESCAPE AND I FORGET. # THE SILHOUETTES BEHIND THE DUST CLOUDS CALL ME FRIEND, # BUT EVEN FOOLS KNOW HERE THEY'RE FAR AND FEW BETWEEN. # SHE IS A MAZE OF NEON HIGHWAYS AND DESERT PLAINS # OF LONELY CREATURES SINGING FOR THE SUMMER RAIN, # AND AT THE END OF ALL, YOUR KNEES FALL DOWN TO KNEEL. # YEAH, IT'S SOMETHING IN YOU ALWAYS YEARNS FOR SOMEONE REAL. # OH, I NEED YOUR LOVE. # I NEED YOUR LOVE. I NEED YOU NOW. I NEED YOU. THAT'S IT FROM US HERE ON TONIGHT. THANKS FOR WATCHING. GOODNIGHT.
