How long should appliances last?
BODY:
Do manufacturers increasingly make household products with a more limited life span than they once did? Why are repairs so costly, if possible at all? Engineer Paul Smith is head of testing with Consumer New Zealand.
EXTENDED BODY:
Is it true that manufacturers increasingly make household products with a more limited life span than they once did? What should consumers look for when buying new appliances and what can we do to extend their lives?
Paul Smith – head of testing with Consumer New Zealand – has some answers.
Edited interview highlights
Paul Smith: That old adage of ‘you get what you pay for’ – I think you do to a certain extent. We find that generally the more expensive brands tend to last a little bit longer and are more repairable, as well.
Dishwashers have a really hard life, because they get filled with gunk and grease. We tend to run dishwashers on pretty cold cycles now. We put them on eco-cycles which means they use less water. And we don’t clean them out. Pumps get clogged, filters get clogged, and eventually they pack in.
[To clean a dishwasher] put it on a hot cycle, put it on the ‘pots and pans’ cycle a couple of times. Put some dishwasher cleaner or even just Rinse Aid through it on an empty cycle. Manufacturers could be better at prompting us to do that.
If you’re paying 500 bucks for a dishwasher that you know isn’t a high-end brand, reasonably you wouldn’t expect that to last as long as something that you’ve paid $2000 for.
Ovens and cooktops are things that you really don’t want to go wrong… Consumers are pretty clear there. They expect an oven to last 15+ years. Manufacturers are roughly in that range still, maybe a little bit less, but they still expect them to last a fairly long time. With an oven, the thing that really goes wrong that you can’t replace is the fan. That’s when it starts to become quite costly ‘cause that’s a rebuild of the oven in a lot of cases – to put a new fan in. But most things on an oven can be repaired.
Fridges [you can expect to last] about 10 years again. The manufacturers will say 9 to 15.
[New Zealand] is really lucky because we’ve got the Consumer Guarantees Act. The warrantee is nice, but the reasonable expectations are covered by law... It all comes down to the definition of what a reasonable consumer would expect. If you expect something to last seven or eight years, and you are reasonable, then you can go back to the retailer. If you’ve got a major fault say "This hasn’t lasted. It’s up to you to either replace it, refund it…" You can give them the option to repair, as well, but it’s up to you what you want to do with it.
Extended warrantees will be sold as a benefit [to the extent that replacement] is not an issue for the consumer. They’ll say they’ll replace it and they’ll replace it. Whereas with the CGA [Consumer Guarantees Act], it really comes down to you arguing your case. If it comes to it, you go to the disputes tribunal.
We find smaller appliances are reasonably reliable, but not that repairable. Toasters, kettles…
Manufacturers and consumers both say TVs should last about 5 to 8 years. The problem with TVs is not that they break down anymore, because we’ve lost that big cathode ray tube, so they’re incredibly reliable.
Definitely some [brands] are better than others. We find the same names come out – Mieles and Bosch always tend to appear at the top of the reliability charts. A good tip is to ask a repairer "Which brands don’t you have to repair very often? And if you do, which ones can you get the parts for easily?"

Stand-up comedian Billy Crystal
BODY:
Award-winning comic, turned movie star, Billy Crystal talks to Kathryn Ryan about his career in show business and his first time performing in New Zealand. Billy Crystal heads to the Auckland 's ASB Theatre on Thursday 21 and Friday 22 July for what's being billed as a spontaneous, funny and unpredictable show with the Australian interviewer, Andrew Denton.
EXTENDED BODY:
After four decades of acting, producing, writing and stand-up comedy, Billy Crystal is no stranger to show business.
He starred in the blockbusters When Harry Met Sally, City Slickers and Analyze This and recently voiced the little green cyclops in the animated hit Monsters. He has also the hosted the Academy Awards nine times, an achievement topped only by Bob Hope.
Billy Crystal performs two intimate shows in Auckland on 21 July and 22 July, with Australian interviewer and comedian Andrew Denton.
He tells Kathryn Ryan that while this will be his first time performing in New Zealand, it isn’t his first visit.
Edited interview highlights
I had a great vacation there in March 2007. It was fantastic. We drove from Blanket Bay all the way to Auckland. It was truly memorable. The people were fantastic, the country, of course, is stunning.
If you find [honesty and truth] in a joke, that’s the best kind of comedy to me. When people sit there and they hit their forehead and go “Oh, my god. I do that, too. That’s me. That’s what I think”. It can enlighten them into a different point of view about things, too. But to me it always has to be rooted in some sort of honesty otherwise you’re just dealing in farce – which of course can be funny, but to me it’s not what I’m about.
The life source of my creativity is talking about things that amuse me or upset me or move me. It’s always been my ability to get up in front of people from the time that I was a little boy. Always the juice of it is really from the stand-up.
I’ve been blessed with a fearlessness… to go with the moment and say what’s on my mind and also know when not to say something. I’ve been in situations where I’ve had to think quick on my feet on stage or off. To me that’s always been a blessing that I can think quickly.
That’s the exhausting thing about stand-up comedy, all these exhausting things that are going on at the same time – you’re looking to the audience like you love being there (at the same time you may not love being there, you may not like he audience). You’re thinking ahead, you’re saying the joke, you’re timing the joke, you’re hearing the response. And inside your mind is editing. “Don’t do this, cut to this. Don’t do that, cut to this. Go here. Say this. Here’s a new line! Do that one!”
It’s like there’s a big staff of people in my brain, in all comedian’s brains, while they’re doing it. That’s what’s exhilarating about stand-up and also exhausting. When you’ve done an hour or whatever it is onstage you come off and you go ‘whoa’. Your brain needs to just compress for a second because every part of it has been working in some way to make it look easy.
It’s almost like a control centre landing an airplane – all those people help you guide it till you land, that’s what doing a show is. You take off at high speed, then you cruise then you have to land the show – so someone’s got to help guide you through the timing of it. All you’ve got is your brain at that point.
[Muhammad Ali] was my friend. I’m always in awe of the fact that we knew each other and were indeed friends. It wasn’t a celebrity friendship – we were really good friends and helped each other and each other’s causes and charities and were family friends. He meant to me such a great deal because he stood up against the Vietnam War, which a great part of my generation did not believe in. He stood up and said "No, I’m not doing this. This is not part of my religion". And for those of us that were frightened we were going to be pulled into this war machine, by doing that, with Martin Luther King gone and Bobby Kennedy gone and John Kennedy gone… we had five years of terrible assassinations… he became the voice for my generation. I looked up to him as somebody who had the courage to do that.

the 2016 Young Farmer of the Year is Athol New.
Edited interview highlights
Jesse Mulligan: Talk me through the practical tests you had to do.
Athol New: The practical was about an eight-hour day comprising a lot of physical exertion. It’s probably three days’ worth of full-time farming packed into eight hours… From fencing to pruning pine trees to setting up irrigators to driving a big drill. There’s plenty on and plenty to do. Nah, it was a good day.
Jesse Mulligan: Were there any women this year?
Athol New: No, there were no women unfortunately. It would be good to see [a woman] get to the grand final and win it one day, that’d be great.
Jesse Mulligan: Were you socialising with the other blokes or was it pretty competitive?
Athol New: No-one was really that ultra competitive in terms of trying to play mind games with each other. Everyone got along really, really well.
Jesse Mulligan: Where are you based?
Athol New: I’m based in Dunsandel these days, about half an hour south of Christchurch. I’m originally from Northland. I went to Kamo High then Lincoln University. I liked Canterbury and stayed in the region ever since.
Jesse Mulligan: So do you think of yourself as a Canterbury boy these days or more of a Northland guy?
Athol New: Probably 50/50. Depends who is playing rugby and who we want to wind up who’s watching it.
Jesse Mulligan: I understand you had to hand-milk a cow.
Athol New: That’s not a normal task for a dairy farmer these days, especially when they’re on the back of truck, either, with a big crowd cheering away. The cows were a little bit nervous, as were all of the contestants doing it, I think.
Jesse Mulligan: Tell me about this building challenge – the garden shed.
Athol New: I don’t think anyone turned into a garden shed – maybe a few walls of a garden shed. It was very challenging, it was a bit of a jigsaw puzzle. By the time we worked out what we were actually trying to build we were pretty pushed for time. It was pretty entertaining for the crowd to watch that.
Jesse Mulligan: Did you have an instruction sheet, though?
Athol New: Nope, no instructions, just bits of wood pre-cut in a big pile. They told us we were building a shed and they had a prototype wrapped up in a tarp. Then about halfway through, after we’d all done enough work that we couldn’t pull them apart again, they released the prototype. There were some odd-looking sheds there, but most of them were still upright.
Jesse Mulligan: Did you have to build a chainsaw, as well?
Athol New: They supplied us with a chainsaw but they supplied it in pieces… That was one of the first tasks. If you didn’t build the chainsaw it would have been a long day.
Jesse Mulligan: Did you have people giving you advice from the sidelines?
Athol New: Fortunately not advice, because if you get advice you lost a few points… I spent most of the day in ear muffs, to be fair, just so you can stay in the zone of competing.
Jesse Mulligan: Were you always going to be a farmer?
Athol New: I probably was. Staying on farms I fell in love with cows from about the age of ten, I really enjoyed working with animals. So I just had to work out a path of what I wanted to do. Once I had that worked I’ve really enjoyed my career so far being a dairy farmer.
Jesse Mulligan: In your speech there was an old ag teacher from Kamo High.
Athol New: I did have an ag teacher who convinced me if I wanted to make a career out of farming I needed to go to university ‘cause farming these days, especially the scale I’m operating at now, is multi-million dollar business so you need some background in financial management and business management to be able to do those roles. So I’m glad I did that and glad I went to Lincoln – it got me to where I am now.
Jesse Mulligan: Tough times for dairy farmers. What do you think the future holds?
Athol New: The pay-out is challenging currently for dairy farmers and share-milkers and contract milkers and the like. But every good crisis has opportunities. It’s just trying to find those opportunities in an industry that is struggling. There are opportunities for young guys like myself to progress and move up. It’s been a great industry for New Zealand and I think it will continue to be. It’s in a bit of a slump at the moment, but it’s a cyclical industry as are all commodity prices. At some stage it will start to lift. It’s just [getting] in a position to catch those opportunities when they do come around.
Jesse Mulligan: Do you have any obligations for young farmer?
Athol New: I’m not sure 100% on the obligations… I’m looking forward to trying to convince more city boys like myself to give farming a go ‘cause it is a challenging career that needs smart, intelligent people to make the industry succeed. Trying to convince those people that it’s a viable career path with good rewards is my next year, I hope.
Jesse Mulligan: Did they give you a… sash?
Athol New: Oh, no, you get a big Cloak of Knowledge. It’s pretty amazing to have that. That’s sort of the one thing any New Zealand Young Farmer who competes wants - that gown. It’s only been been worn by 47 other people in the south. It’s a pretty elite club to get into so it’s pretty cool to be part of that now.

Takaka group fights to save historic grandstand
BODY:
A group of Golden Bay locals is fighting to save its historic roofed grandstand - which the council plans to demolish to make room for a carpark. The barrel vaulted roofed stand is one of just two of its kind left in the country - it was built in 1899. Takaka based author Gerard Hindmarsh is one of those trying to save the grandstand.

A group of Golden Bay locals is fighting to save its historic roofed grandstand - which the council plans to demolish to make room for a carpark.
The barrel vaulted roofed stand is one of just two of its kind left in the country - it was built in 1899.
Takaka based author Gerard Hindmarsh is one of those trying to save the grandstand.
The Tasman District Council has given us this statement on the grandstand
The Council has been working with local community representatives to provide a new community recreation facility in Golden Bay for approximately seven years.
Whenever the Golden Bay Community Recreation Facility is discussed it is always as a complete development - the building, the netball courts and the car parking required for those using the amenity and the associated sports fields. The development has a limited amount of land in which to provide this community amenity.
The community representatives and the Council have consulted on the plans for the new development on several occasions over the years. The proposed plans have always shown the grandstand would not be retained.
The fate of the grandstand will soon be in the hands on Heritage NZ. While it is not on any heritage lists, because it may have been built prior to 1900 they have jurisdiction (Sec 42 Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Act 2014). Its date of construction will be part of their determination as will its heritage value in its current state.
If its determined the grandstand has to stay or has to be moved somewhere else, then the Council will actively work with the Save The Grandstand group or anyone else to achieve that.
There was a meeting between Save The Grandstand (STG) and council representatives in Takaka on 28th June where it was agreed that the parties would respect the differences of opinion and now focus on the issues ahead rather than the past. The Council is committed to that agreement.

Exploring synesthesia
BODY:
Synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon where some people perceive the world in a multi-sensory way. For some it involves hearing colours in music, or visualising letters and numbers in different colours. It's a field that fascinates Dr Patrick Shepherd, from Canterbury University's school of teacher education, who is also a composer, conductor, and performer.
EXTENDED BODY:
Synesthesia is a neurological phenomenon where some people perceive the world in a multi-sensory way. For some, it involves hearing colours in music, or visualising letters and numbers in different colours.
For others, it is more spatial, where number sequences or the days of the week are perceived in locations in space.
It's a field that fascinates Dr Patrick Shepherd, from Canterbury University's school of teacher education, who is also a composer, conductor and performer.
He says the condition harks back to the Ancient Greeks and has had a “chequered career” because of the believability of it, but since the 1990s and the age of MRI scanning, it has more of a clinical and medical validity than it did before that.
Dr Shepherd says that while it does sound "nuts", for people with synesthesia, it’s a very real way of perceiving the world.
He talks to Jesse about what we do and don't yet understand about synesthesia, and answers questions from listeners.
Read an edited excerpt of the interview below:
JM: Can you give me a couple of other examples of how synesthesia might manifest itself?
PS: One of the big ones is gustatory synethsasia which is to do with taste. So somebody might say “that chicken tastes a little bit spiky”. And we might interpret that as being spicy perhaps, or that is has a sharp acidic taste, but that’s actually not what they mean at all. They’re actually sensing that piece of chicken as a sort of a sharp spike.
There’s also spatial synethsasia. One of the clients I worked with who has spatial synethsasia was a mountaineer, so he saw the world very differently. Whereas we might look at it as a chasm between two mountains with fear, that’s how he saw the whole thing in terms of the space – as solid objects with the gap in between them. And he wanted to live his life in space, because that’s how he perceived the world.
But there are lots of different types of synethsasia – relating colours to numbers, letters to colours and linking to sound to colour. But there are many cross modalities here, and you end up with maybe 80 different types of synethsasia.
It’s always developing and you’re always finding out new and different things.
JM: Is it something that hinders you in the everyday world?
PS: It’s both a curse and a blessing, I think. And from the people that I’ve talked to – some of them use it [like] the musicians, I’ve talked to,use it. I’ve talked to various people in New Zealand who have volunteered to be part of [my] project... Some of the musicians might use synethsasia as part of their every day and some don't. When you look at some of the famous artists across the world who have synethsasia like David Hockney and Billy Joel, [and Lady Gaga], many of them talk about it but it doesn’t necessarily alter the way they work. If you're a fan of Billy Joel, can you name any of his songs that mention anything about colour? I mean I'm a fan of his music and I'm struggling to.
JM: When is it mostly discovered for the first time?
PS: Evidence is beginning to show that generally kids have it and then they grow out of it…. It would seem to be that the real area of discovery is actually going to be talking to children. But the problem with talking to children is that idea it is freakish, and they don't want to be singled out as being different. And if you say something like “only three colours to go until Friday,” people will say “what?”
It often goes hand-in-hand with dyslexia. I talked to one of my students at the University of Canterbury and she said, “I’ve got it”. And I said: “You’ve got dyslexia?” and she said “yes”.
She was 21, and I said: “and you didn’t realise up until now?”
And she said: “No, I just thought that the other children just hadn’t had that lesson.”
I was amazed.
That signalled a lot of the experiences that the people I’ve talked to have had. Which is that they don’t discover it until a later time. They don’t discover it until their teens perhaps because they’ve assumed that everyone had it, or in the case of the person I talked to, that it is learned behaviour...And when you get to your teens you become very self-aware and how you relate to the world. And you add it up and realise that not everybody is wired the same way that I am.

Monday 11 July - Cleaning Up the Oceans
More than five million tonnes of plastic waste ends up in the oceans every year. The abandoned fishing gear and bags and bottles left on beaches can smother birds and sea life. Now there is also evidence that the small particles created as the plastics are eroded by the waves and sunlight are eaten by all kinds of marine species. Roland Pease is on a beach in Devon in south-west England with professor Richard Thompson of Plymouth University finding the plastic debris before it gets into the sea.
Tuesday 12 July - Dust Bowl Ballads
A fierce drought in Oklahoma’s ‘No Man’s Land’ – a region that was the heart of the 1930s Dust Bowl – stirs up dust storms, memories and myths. In this parched terrain of ghost towns and abandoned ranches, the wells are running dry, but the stories continue to flow. Storytelling spins out of the landscape itself. Millard Fowler (who has sadly died since being recorded) was 102 years old, and remembers the ‘Dirty Thirties’, when relentless winds scooped up the topsoil and rolled it through the town in billowing black clouds, turning day to night.
Wednesday 13 July - The City Giving Wine to Alcoholics
The conventional treatment for chronic alcoholics is abstinence. Not in Ottawa. At the Oaks, a residence for those who were once homeless, occupants are given a measure of white wine at hourly intervals throughout the day. The ‘Managed Alcohol Program’ has improved the health of its participants, reduced their alcohol intake, and in some cases enabled them to stop drinking altogether. It’s also saved the city of Ottawa millions of dollars in public services – one man was hospitalised 191 times in the six months before joining the programme.
