It is very sad to report the loss of a 46 year old man who was
attacked by a Shark today. Furthermore the attack on this man was fatal.
The man named Adam Strange was believed to be swimming alone from Maori Bay to Muriwai beach at the time of the attack.
Witnesses say that the shark was about 4metres long and it was said that 4 sharks in total had appeared around Adam Strange. A heroic effort came from a Police officer who used a surf board to travel out to sea where Mr Stranges body remained.The police officer used his gun and fired shots into the water towards the shark and apparently managed to shoot the shark which eventually swam away enabling the police officer to retrieve the body of Mr Strange.

Adam Strange was a well known film director in New Zealand. One of his short films, Aphrodite’s Farm, made 10 international film festivals in seven countries and last year won the Crystal Bear award for Best Short Film at the Berlin Film Festival. Mr Strange worked making television commercials in 1995 and continued to work in the industry for a further 10 years. His work saw him traveling the world and Mr strange expressed his love of traveling, spending time with his family and the outdoors on his website.

Mr Stranges family are understandably in shock and are very distraught after the loss of a reportedly very Loving Father.

The Muriwai area is well known for shark sightings however Fatal Shark attacks are rare in New Zealand.The last fatal shark attack was in 2009 and it was a Kayaker in the coromandel , before this there has not been a fatal shark attack in New Zealand since 1976.

Many people are praying and thinking about Mr Stranges family at this time. Tennyson Times want to wish the family our deepest condolences.

Tanya.

The lovely Emily and Tony Lentino

With the help from Jetman  Yves Rossy have a plan to help the  Starship Foundation

Ready, jet set and go for your dreams.

That is the message Wellsford resident and singer Emily Lentino, or stagename Emme,    wants children to know – not to give up on their dreams no matter how bleak their circumstances may seem.

With that in mind, Emily teamed up with Jetman Yves Rossy to film a 30 second video on the Lentinos’ Springhill farm last Wednesday for the Starship Foundation.                   

More than 30 children from Wellsford School and Living Way Christian School joined in on the music project which was shot to a music track,

Dare To Dream, a song Emily penned together with New Zealand songwriter Bryan Bell.

The video will feature Jetman swooping overhead in the sky on his jetpack with the children sitting on the hills of Springhill farm watching him.

The camera will then zoom in on the children and little speech bubbles will be added to appear above their heads, allowing people inside the children’s dreams and aspirations, Emily says.

The idea for a video with Jetman came when Emily’s husband Tony, an aviation enthusiast, had a vision of Jetman flying over the Lentinos’ Wellsford property.

The Lentinos met Yves and Fouzia when Yves used the family’s helicopter for his air stunt at The New Zealand Airshow held during Auckland Anniversary weekend.

“We asked Yves if he would be interested in helping us create an advertisement to promote Starship Foundation, and he agreed,” Emily says.

“Yves also has a love for children, so it was cool to speak to him about our similar interests in helping kids, and inspiring them.

Emily has a background in teaching children theatre, music, and dance, and she also runs an arts and theatre class out of Wellsford School’s hall. The video is directed by New Zealand film-maker Ferg Milner who got in touch with Kiwi cinematographer Simon Temple to assemble a film crew to shoot the video. Some of the film members have also worked on The Hobbit.

People sprawled out across the streets of Napier on Saturday and Sunday for Art Deco.Cars were brought back to the future from the 1900′s most in immaculate condition. Live entertainment was featured in the town center with several Charley Chapman look alikes and dance groups taking it right back to the 1900′s.

Soo much fun in one Town! This definitely was one of the greater celebrations compared to other years.
The New Zealand Navy played a part in the celebrations also with many Navy recruits joining in on the Art Deco fun in Napier.

These are just some of the pictures our Reporters took while out and about enjoying Art Deco in reality.
