The rugby gods weren’t ready for Colin Mataira.
Three times he turned up at their gates on the afternoon of July 11, and three times they sent him back. The 45-year-old father of five, and grandfather of three, to all intents and purposes died three times when his heart stopped on the 10-metre line of a Napier rugby field that day.

In the lead up to the 2020 election, Stuff is keeping voters up to date with what’s happening in their electorate, through Neighbourly. Here’s what you need to know about the candidates in the running to be Te Tai Hauāuru's MP.
At the October 17 election, New Zealanders will have the opportunity to choose their regional spokesperson.
Through the Mixed Member Proportional (MMP) voting system, those enrolled can vote for the party they want as well as a local representative.
Why does my MP matter?
The person elected will be the voice for your region in Parliament. If you’re having trouble getting entitlements or dealing with Government departments, they can help. If your community needs funding for certain projects or activities, or there isn’t enough healthcare in the area, the elected MP can step in and help.

Billy Scott was scootering back from his local dairy with his friends on Saturday evening when the driver, who had allegedly been drinking, lost control of his car and hit him on the footpath. The impact caused Billy to “fly through the air like an angel” before hitting his head on a fence.
Paramedics told his mum, Samantha Millan it was a miracle that he only suffered minor injuries.

At English Language Partners in Porirua, new arrivals (including refugees) are learning about our voting system and how it works.
In countries like China and Myanmar, democracy is not encouraged and the concept of voting is foreign. Teachers at Language Partners have to explain to them how voting works and how they can choose how to vote for.
Wellington Registrar of Electors Erin Marsh says research shows new Kiwis tend not to vote; they join Māori, Pacific and young people in those most underrepresented at the polls.
