Sally Fitzgibbons Takes Back-to-Back Wins at Subaru Pro in New Zealand
TARANAKI, New Plymouth/New Zealand (Saturday, April 30, 2011) – Sally Fitzgibbons, (AUS), 20, has well and truly shaken the proverbial ‘runner-up-monkey’ off her back, taking her second consecutive elite tour victory, winning the ASP Subaru Pro TSB Bank Women’s Surf Festival in Taranaki, New Zealand today.
Fresh off her maiden victory at Bells Beach last week, Fitzgibbons proved her ‘bridesmaid days were over’, defeating defending event champion and ratings leader Carissa Moore, (HAW), 18, to secure the ASP Women’s World No. 1 position.
“This means the world to me, I’m so stoked to get a win here in New Zealand,” Fitzgibbons said. “Last year I got runner-up so to take the win today is extra special.”
While an increase in swell provided great morning conditions, low tide during the final wrecked havoc with the lineup, Fitzgibbons choosing to sit on the far right bank a few hundred meters away from Moore, who chose to sit on the left.
“The waves today were pretty challenging,” Fitzgibbons said. “Entering the water I saw a little peak down the beach, it was a risky move but it paid off this time. I just went out there and thought I’m in the final and I just wanted to go for it and that’s where I was going to surf. “
Picking off two racy right-handers, unleashing an exciting variety of critical maneuvers Fitzgibbons was duly rewarded with a pair of excellent 8.00 rides (out of 10) defeating Moore 16.00 to 6.86 (both out of 20.00).
“I think its great to be able to showcase some of the things I’ve been working on, I feel good and I’ve definitely got a lot more to give, that’s the exciting thing! I can’t wait for the next event!”
With just 500 points now separating the two surfers, the race for this year’s ASP Women’s World Title is taking shape.
“Its always a bonus to be having the time of your life surfing and the cherry on the top is to be getting wins like this and some points under the belt,” Fitzgibbons continued. “To be honest I’m so focused on each event that I’m not looking too far into the future, I’m just sort of taking it as it comes so it’s good to have these events back to back.”
Moore, was forced to settled with her second runner-up finish this season, posting two great performances in the quarterfinals and the semifinals but was unable to find the waves she needed to beat Fitzgibbons in the final.
“I definitely chose the wrong spot in the lineup,” Moore said. “Sally did a really good job, she was really smart, she picked the right spot in the lineup and she definitely came into play and put on a good performance. She’s been consistent all week so good on Sally.”
A determined competitor, Moore kept no secrets about her will to claim back the World No. 1 position.
“I’m super stoked to still be in contention,” Moore continued. “Obviously as an athlete you don’t want to get second, you want to win but this rivalry is definitely good for the sport and as for the No. 1 position, I want it! Hopefully we’ll have some good match ups for the rest of the year.”
ASP rookie Tyler Wright, 17, (AUS) netted an equal third place finish reaching the semifinals where she was defeated by, Moore for the second time this year.
“Carissa was surfing amazing I think she got all the right waves out there, she’s had a great year so far and she’s won both times we’ve met but a third is still a really good result for me,” Wright said.
Today’s outcome proved a repeat of their final duel at the Roxy Pro on the Gold Coast, Wright struggling to find the waves that would offer her the scoring potential, her result today nevertheless maintaining her World No. 3 position.
“I’m a rookie so obviously I’ve made a lot of rookie mistakes. Every heat I learn as I go and to be at World No. 3, I couldn’t really ask to be in a better spot right now.”
Despite a disappointing semifinals performance, Coco Ho, (HAW), 20, finished with her best result of the season, placing equal third place after being defeated by Fitzgibbons without so much as a point on the scoreboard, during their semifinal clash. Suffering one of the hardest conditions of the day at the change of the tide, Ho found herself lost at sea finishing with just a 0.8 heat total.
Four times ASP World Champion Stephanie Gilmore (AUS) placed equal ninth, falling to an in form Chelsea Hedges (AUS) during the quarterfinals to slip down to World No. 5.

Another nearside view of RML 903 parked safely and securely within the confines of Holloway Garage. Originally built by the former London County Council (LCC) back in 1907 it was known as Highgate tram depot as it was host to trams between 1907 and 1952. In 1936 Highgate depot received an allocation of trolleybuses to replace the trams on the North London area routes, leaving just the allocation of trams for the busy cross-town tram route 35 from Archway Tavern to Forest Hill (via the Kingsway Subway) up until the closure of the Kingsway tram subway in April 1952. Highgate lost all of its trolleybus allocation in July 1961 following the conversion of the trolleybus routes in North and North-East London to the ubiquitous diesel Routemaster and upon the closure of the nearby Holloway (J) motorbus garage on the Holloway Road in 1971 Highgate depot was renamed as Holloway bus garage, where it became part of Metroline since the takeover of MTL London Northern by Metroline in the summer of 1998. Holloway Garage ran two Routemaster-operated routes in the form of routes 10 and 139, with route 139 converting to OPO Dennis Darts at the end of March 1998 whilst the northern end of route 10 between King's Cross, Tufnell Park and Archway was renumbered 390 in February 2003, leading to the RM and RML fleet at Holloway all transferring 'down the road' to a new outstation in King's Cross, just off York Way.

this took a lot more work than needed, the second time I did it, I pulled the wire and string through the square hole and then it was easier stringing a wire from the round hole to the square hole to fetch the string through the tiny round hole again...
and voila! Pips again!
Replacing the pullstring on Kendall the wonderful Kenner...
it was a successful operation, Kendall came through with flying colours!
she can't wait to see Mum! She misses you already!

...it is now.
A select group of volunteers [the person who selected them has since be reprimanded for gross negligence – his defence being there was nowhere near a gross and none of them were wearing negligencies!], gathered around Mr T. However Mr T did not feel threatened. He had his minder, a hulking brute of a man, [did I say man? Was Dr. Frankenstein’s monster a man?], standing watching his back. Everyone felt relieved. (!) It was when it was watching your back that you needed to be frightened! Anyway, to continue:
Mr T: “We’re not planting trees over by the MoD fence line any longer.”
The Voles enthusiasm knew no bounds and spilled out making a nasty mess of the car park. The couple of Dave’s [the only one’s of their clan to be present] began doing an Irish jig in the style that only the English can accomplish to Olympic standard. This resembles two drunks on a Friday night attempting to swap trousers while eating a chicken vindaloo!
Mr T had lulled them and now applied the ‘cut the grass’ [I believe it sounds better in French but I’m not into that foreign fancy stuff, let them learn English like we had to, that’s what I say].
Mr T: “Instead we’ll be planting trees down near the other end of the Upper Alders.”
The jiggers froze – it was their fault for being so quick in removing certain essential items of apparel. Wendy, remembering her classes from Finishing Off School, swooned and fell to ground, [fortunately she didn’t have far to go]. The Brute picked her up and tossed her into the back of my car, [no-one takes Jock’s seat even the Brute knew that].
Mr T: “Squire, you drive while I rest on my laurels.”
Brute: “But I thought we were planting alders?”
Mr T: “Just drive.”
It was a mizzly, drizzly day so I had brought along my gazebo to keep us dry when we had our break. [The Brute liked to break things (and people)]. Soon Dave C. and I were well on the way to completing its construction. However after ten minutes we decide more help was needed. After a further ten minutes and the help of Roger we decided more help was needed. After a further ten minutes and the help of Dave M. We decided more help was needed. After a further ten minutes it had stopped raining and the wind was taking the gazebo across the field with Wendy firmly attached to one of the legs. Finally, by tying Roger’s bike to the opposite leg that Wendy was secured to, the gazebo looked like a grade two listing building – yes that bad.
The tree planting went along the usual lines, trees two metres apart (give or take a metre) in one direction and two metres apart (give or take a metre) in the other, whilst in the main being perpendicular to the horizontal. This of course does not allow for the inbuilt variations based upon wind direction, proximity to the tin of biscuits, phase of the moon and attitude of the Vole in question. However Mr T did note one Vole was being a little too precise in being precise rather than not being precise, if you take my drift. [Please note the last person who took my drift has still to return it!].
Mr T: “Excuse me ‘The Moff’, you don’t need to be exact in spacing the trees.”
The Moff, (tucking his collapsible digital theodolite into his pocket). “I’m not. I’m at least 0.056 millimetres about the norm.” [Norman looked concerned but not surprised by this revelation].
Mr T: “That’s alright then. For a moment I thought you were being too meticulous.” [How can you be ‘too’ meticulous? A meticulous person would ensure they weren’t too meticulous otherwise they’d fail to be meticulous.
The Moff: “No, I’m being very careful not to be too meticulous.” [You don’t catch The Moff out that easily].
Mr T also noted that Wendy appeared to be dozing off for a few minutes every time she put the guards on the trees and canes.
Mr T: “Wendy, are we keeping you up?”
Wen: “No, I’m using my belly, [The word used by Wendy was ‘stomach’ but I can’t spell ‘stomach’ so I’m using ‘belly’ instead – apologies to the squeamish], to pile drive the canes into the ground another foot or so.”
Mr T: “Doesn’t that hurt?”
Wen: “No, I’m sure the canes don’t feel a thing.”
Later that day, have planted the allotted area, the footpath, the ditch and the river (but only to wadeable height, ensuring the bamboo canes protruded above the waterline).
The Moff: “Hey I’ve got a great idea. Let’s go an finish planting the other area with all these trees that are left.”
The enthusiasm of the Voles knew no bounds yet again spilling everywhere and leaving a nasty mess. [Is there a nice mess? Well yes, often people tell me I’ve left them in a nice mess.]
The Brute, having secured the less enthusiastic Voles in the trailer set off across country to our new destination.
Mr T called him back: “Squire, you’re supposed to take the land rover and trailer with you!”
This was easier said than done, the vehicle and trailer now being surrounded by several hundred trees! However by carefully ignoring them, brute force overcame such difficulties, [actually the word is ‘overran’].
And so dear reader onto our second site and second task of the day. To cut a long email short reread the first section ignoring the bits about the gazebo, footpath, ditch and river.
Yet another ‘And so’ as we come to the end of the Sandy Smith Nature Reserve Tree Planting Saga. This will no doubt go down in the annuls of history as further proof of something. But what the something is will only be decide by the future that will rewrite the past to fit into its own present. That’s the paradox called Time for you.
The End, or the beginning, or the continuation.
Once more thanks go to The Venerable Buxton, ably assisted by The Lady Buxton for another scrum-delicious hotpot and gallons of tea made as only the tea plantations of Yorkshire know how. Why we bother importing tea from other countries is beyond me. Just think of the carbon footprints we could save muddying Mother Earth’s green carpet as some ex vice president once said having lost an election just because a few thousand voting papers had accidently been recorded as preferring him to some other noteworthy bloke whose name thankfully escapes me. Anyway he made money out of it so that’s alright.
For those of you that missed it, you don’t know what you’ve missed and having read this you still don’t. I never understand people who say you don’t know what you’ve missed and then proceed to tell you what you’ve missed, so you do know what you’ve missed when you probably didn’t miss it in the first place, which is why you missed it. [If you know what I mean].
By the way ‘Brute’, you know I don’t mean it and I used to love splashing you on all over when I was young and it’s great that you’re making a comeback, even if it is only at Christmas. [Whereas you, (The Squire you), make a comeback every time you go away].
Another End,
Malcolm.
PS Certain people say it helps to have a few drinks when reading my emails. The alcohol doesn’t help the brain deduce more but it does ensure that when you wake up the screen has gone blank so you can switch it off and go to bed thinking you’ve read it all. “Alcohol is the great leveller” said Earnest Hemmingway as he fell off his bar stool for the umpteenth time. Ernie’s favourite drink was probably a dry martini rather than the Mojito or even Bloody Mary. My favourite drink is one bought by someone else.
That’s all folks.
How I got thrown out of the Apple Store in Glasgow for being on the phone while holding a notebook. I did have my camera around my neck, but the lens cap was on. I was told that the people who post photos of Apple products on Flickr are going to be "contacted". I was also told that Apple "have people" who take care of their "image" online and people are not allowed to take photographs of Apple products and post said photos online.
Bet you didn't know that either.

An eclectic mix of items has been loaded for our journey. I've included my Brompton folding bicycle as it takes up so little space in the rear of the van. We are visiting a country well known for its cycling, so who could resist taking the little Brompton?
We took the same amount of items as last year, but it seems more packed. Studying the photos from last years we realise that this van is a longer version.
Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968) was an American clergyman, activist and prominent leader in the African-American civil rights movement. His main legacy was to secure progress on civil rights in the United States and he is frequently referenced as a human rights icon today. Martin Luthur King's "I Have a Dream" speech is often considered to be one of the greatest and most notable speeches in history when he spoke of his desire for a future where blacks and whites, among others, would coexist harmoniously as equals. the speech was on August 28, 1963, at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial during the 'March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom', and was considered to be the defining moment of the American Civil Rights Movement, as was the inauguration of the first black President of the United States Barak Obama, which is what led to the graphic, this is a homage to a man of great principles and honour who in every sense fulfils his own quotation;
"The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy". (MLK)

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. - " I Have a Dream" Speech (full transcript)
I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.
Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves, who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity.
But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful condition.
In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note, insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."
But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. And so we have come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.
We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.
It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment. This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. Nineteen sixty-three is not an end but a beginning. Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual. There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.
But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must ever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny. And they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone.
And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?" We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality. We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no, we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.
I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells. Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by the storms of persecutions and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive. Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our northern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed. Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends. And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.
I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal.
I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today!
I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification; one day right down in Alabama little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today!
I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, and every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.
This is our hope. This is the faith that I will go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day. And this will be the day, this will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning, "My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring!" And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true.
And so let freedom ring.....from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire.
Let freedom ring.....from the mighty mountains of New York.
Let freedom ring.....from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.
Let freedom ring.....from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado.
Let freedom ring.....from the curvaceous slopes of California.
But not only that.
Let freedom ring.....from Stone Mountain of Georgia.
Let freedom ring.....from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.
Let freedom ring.....from every hill and molehill of Mississippi, from every mountainside, let freedom ring!
And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual,
"Free at last, free at last., Thank God Almighty, we are free at last."
By Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (August 28th 1963 - Lincoln Memorial).

I've walked by this car so many times, it's been standing there for months, same spot, dusted by leaves and cherry tree petals... I've always loved the color and wanted to shot it. Today, I had the camera...
It wasn't until I uploaded the shot and had a closer look that I notice why the car has been standing there abandoned. The lazy owner hasn't bothered to fix the punctured tire.
