More booze for Byron: Dan Murphy’s approved

Thousands march for fracking moratorium

Hans Lovejoy

‘No fracking way’ is the message thousands of demonstrators sent to politicans from Knox Park in Murrwillumbah on Saturday. Despite invitations, the region’s government MPs did not attend.

More than 3,000 people voiced their outrage against coal-seam gas (CSG) mining in Murwillumbah on Saturday at one of the biggest rallies ever seen in the Northern Rivers. The controversial ‘fracking’ method used to extract underground gas by the CSG industry has tapped a raw nerve among the many protesters including farmers, families, environmentalists, Aboriginal elders, tourism operators, and blue and white collar workers who have united against what they see as the biggest threat to Australia’s environment. A long colourful stream of protesters waving placards and chanting anti-CSG slogans stopped traffic as they snaked down the town’s CBD from Knox Park, spilling over onto the road from the pavement. On return to the park they were addressed by a range of speakers including farmers and residents from the Northern Rivers and Queensland, where CSG mining has already started and sparked a huge campaign

against it including a blockade of the construction of a CSG pipeline through a residential estate at Tara in central Queensland. They heard how almost every council in the region has called for a moratorium on CSG mining which threatens to contaminate the country’s underground water table and its food producing capacity.

One voice, but few pollies They were also told that evidence is growing in the US where it first began that CSG’s use of ‘fracking’ (fracturing rocks using chemical reactions) to extract gas from underground coal seams is a serious threat to aquifers. A range of toxic chemicals, including some known carcinogens, are used in this process to release the gas. The region’s three new government MPs, the National Party’s Thomas George in Lismore, Don Page in Ballina and Geoff Provest in Tweed, as well as federal Richmond MP Justine Elliot did not turn up to the rally despite being invited by organisers. Their colleague in the seat of

Clarence further south, Steve Cansdell, has already come out strongly in favour of CSG. Organisers of the rally, the Northern Rivers Guardians (NRG) and Caldera Environment Centre, say the huge turnout on Saturday sent a strong and clear message to government and mining companies that the community is dead against this industry. Spokesman Michael McNamara said the wide variety of community and industry groups ‘speaking with the one voice’ showed clearly the strong community concern with CSG mining. Greens MLC Jeremy Buckingham told the rally that the first thing he did on entering parliament this year was to introduce a Bill in the Upper House calling for a moratorium on all new gas exploration licences pending an inquiry. Mr Buckingham, the Greens’ mining and resources spokesman, said governments ‘don’t want to know’ about the dangers of CSG to their ‘eternal shame’.

Council had ‘no choice’ but to accept Dan Murphy’s liquor outlet in Byron Bay. That was the sentiment from most councillors this week, as the last hurdle of traffic management for the Woolies subsidiary was passed. Absent from the meeting were Mayor Barham, Cr Richard Staples, and for the most part Cr Simon Richardson. A motion by Cr Tabart to object on the grounds of congested traffic and lack of car spaces failed to get any support. Tabart was somewhat pessimistic about the ‘no win situation regarding the carpark.’ He said, ‘The development will generate a huge amount of traffic.’ Cr Diane Woods took the bold step of claiming responsibility for Coun-

cil’s inability to provide the space. ‘We are short of carparks, and it’s our fault for not providing carparks,’ she said. Cr Basil Cameron called it a bad application. ‘This is about trying to put something overscale into an existing site.’ He added the applicant has both previously demonstrated, and flagged, that they intend to push the issue through the courts if not passed. In related news, Shoalhaven Council on the NSW South Coast has ruled a Dan Murphey’s DA inappropriate for the town of Nowra. A Council spokesperson told The Echo they were not objecting to Dan Murphy’s; it was the location. ‘It’s the busiest intersection in town, and the immediate area is dominated by public housing. There are three existing alcohol outlets on the same block already.’

Burly billygoats take over Bangalow

Victoria Cosford

The 17th Bangalow Billycart Derby attracted a record number of entries in weather which could not have been more perfect. Tony Heeson, organiser of the event for the last six years, told The Echo that the winner out of the 207 entries was someone who called himself simply ‘Lance’. ‘It was a fantastic day,’ he said, ‘so inclusive, a great atmosphere – social position meant nothing!’ continued on page 3 The theme for the parade was the

emergency services, represented by various bodies such as ambulance, police and fire brigade. There were classic cars, scouts, P&C centres and the Lismore Park Band which entertained crowds in the bar of the pub afterwards. The last event of the day was the celebrity race featuring Byron Bay mayor Jan Barham, Ian Cohen and Bangalow Limousines bearing a Dame Edna look-alike waving gladioli. ‘We were cleaned up by 4.30pm,’ Tony said, ‘Then we all went to the pub.’ Photo Jeff ‘Downhill’ Dawson

Byron Bay has no carbon footprint plans: Is there intellectual gridlock on a green energy transition? Ray Moynihan

A respected regional planner with the state government says Byron is not rising to the challenge of sustainability in the way smaller communities are. ‘Byron is one of great open universities,’ he told The Echo this week. ‘The debate is brilliant, but action is lacking.’ Community Economic Development Manager with the state government for the past seven years, Pieter Verasdonck is helping towns in the northern rivers develop ‘bottom-up’ plans for the transition to a low carbon future. Plans are being developed in smaller towns including Uki and Brunswick Heads, but so far not in Byron, where Mr Verasdonck suggests a lack of community cohesiveness appears to be holding the process back.

While Byron has a history of intellectual leadership and green thinking, it may now be suffering something akin to intellectual gridlock. At a time when towns like Portland Oregon are making massive reductions in carbon footprints, Byron, Verasdonck says, still lacks a community-based strategy for the transition.

Still reliant on 90 per cent coal-fired power The education officer with the Lismore-based Environmental Defenders Office Mark Byrne says the region as a whole still imports 90 per cent of its energy from coal-fired power, and is ‘at risk of becoming a brown energy backwater.’ While the region has one of the highest penetrations of solar rooftop panels in the

nation, they contribute only a tiny fraction of overall energy use. With growing use of air conditioners in summer, ‘we could be going backwards’ says Byrne, who’ll convene the energy forum ‘Growing your own’ at Mullumbimby Civic Hall on June 3, supported by the state government. With poor prospects for large wind and solar farms, greater energy efficiency is one obvious pathway for the region, with encouraging results emerging recently from council’s Sustainability Street project. Neighbourhoods in Mullumbimby, Uki and South Golden beach all recorded reductions in energy and water use in just six months. Participating residents in Mullumbimby reduced water use by more than 60 per cent, in Uki people reduced power needs

by 13 per cent, and in South Golden Beach the neighbourhood’s overall ecological footprint shrank an estimated 5 per cent. At this stage, no streets in Byron have become involved in the project. Pieter Verasdonck says part of Byron’s problem is it’s ‘drowning in its own success’, and it has ‘values that are no longer on display.’ Ultimately however he’s optimistic there’ll be more cohesion between the business community, the council and residents, enabling Byron to take advantage of a greener marketplace and find solutions to the challenges of climate change. ‘In the end we can’t look to government or others to solve the problem,’ he says, ‘we must take personal responsibility for the pollution we cause.’

The call for a community bank Hans Lovejoy

A push for community banking in the Shire is underway. With steering committees already in Woodburn and strong interest from Goonellabah, Lennox Head and Pottsville, Bendigo and Adelaide bank is calling for members of the community to express interest in a community bank. Unlike the main four banks, this model claims a return to its local shareholders, and comprises a local board of directors who administer profits and donations to community groups and and community projects. Bendigo and Adelaide bank’s Peter Dirkx says the bank, along with the board, would oversee the establishment of a bank in the Shire. This includes setting up the

bank’s location, hiring staff, and administration costs. ‘We are currently scouting for possible board members,’ he told The Echo. ‘It would suit community minded/semi-retired business people who have a financial background, though the latter is not a necessity.’ Mr Dirkx says a community investment of around $700, 000 will ensure the process gets off the ground. Well known Mullumbimby identity Maurie Maher is a retired Commonwealth bank manager, having worked for them for thirty years. Currently he works for the Mullum rural co-op, and says he supports the community banking proposal. ‘It seems to be a very popular thing in the world at the mo-

ment. It’s more localised and profits are returned into the community.’ Paul Eatwell, of Mullumbimby Professionals Real Estate, says, ‘The greatest value of the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank is that it is a community oriented Bank. The more locals support the bank the greater the capital poured into the community. ‘What a great opportunity to break the monopoly of the four major banks, all posting record profits in a downturned market, but what are they really contributing to your community? ‘The reason I support The Bendigo and Adelaide Bank is because when I first bought my business, Bendigo supported me with a loan at a much more competitive rate than the four major banks and particularly my own bank which I had been banking

with for over 20 years. The business still trades with the bank for loans and overdraft facilities.’ If you want to be involved, or know more, call the bank’s Peter Dirkx on 0437 451 443.

Mullum to Bruns Paddle coming up The second annual 10 km Mullum to Bruns Paddle takes to the water on Sunday May 29. The community fundraising event starts at Heritage Park in Mullumbimby and concludes between the bridges at Terrace Park in Brunswick Heads. At the finish of the paddle, there will be a lineup of music and entertainment, including the official opening with a talk by Kay Cottee, the first woman to sail solo nonstop and unassisted around the world.

Local News Villawood escapee busted in Byron

Bye-bye to Byron’s Bitou bush After 14 years of hard work, the Green and Clean Dunecare team have announced that the introduced Bitou bush has been eradicated around Byron’s beaches. The group claim coastal rainforest eco-systems are returning to the dunes. ‘Byron Bay is benefiting from this investment in an integrated dune system in many ways’ said the group’s spokesperson Veda Turner. ‘Our lightweight beach fencing installed in 2008 on the foredune and designed to be adjusted was raised this year to allow for our growing dunes. ‘An average height increase of 0.6m was recorded over three years. That’s sand in the bank!’ He says a planting site in memory of local environmental

He said the industry has ‘really slipped through the cracks’ and not been dealt with properly in terms of regulation and legislation. The MLC said he would ‘fight tooth and nail’ against CSG mining altogether, ‘otherwise they will turn our most productiuve farmland into a Gasland.’

Countries act on CSG This week, the French parliament voted to ban hydraulic fracturing or fracking in the shale-coal gas industry, while in South Africa last month, the government also announced a moratorium on fracking. Byron Shire Council this week joined the other shires of Ballina and Tweed in calling for an immediate moratorium on CGS. One of the keynote speakers at the rally was Queensland farmer Drew Hutton, the president of the newly-formed national Lock the Gate Alliance

which is taking action to stop drilling for CSG in southern Queensland. Mr Hutton said hundreds of farmers in the area where coal companies were actively exploring for CSG had joined the alliance and ‘locked the gate’ on mining company representatives wanting to explore or negotiate for drilling rights. ‘Tara will go into Australian history because people there will become heroes as they take up the struggle, because the precautionary principle had been totally misapplied with CSG mining.’ Mr Hutton was arrested by police at Tara a few weeks ago after sitting on a bulldozer during the blockade action. Other speakers that addressed the crowd included Tweed canegrower Robert Quirk, Tweed Combined Rural Industries Association president Col Brooks and Aboriginal spokesman Robert Williams.

Corrections from last week A letter by Jason Humberstone in last week’s paper incorrectly identified a Michael Rogers as working for Byron Bay First National. This is not the case and The Echo regrets the error. Also, in our article last week on coal-seam gas mining, it was wrongly stated that the data on exploration licences was ‘amassed’ by the Environmental Defenders Office (EDO). The data is available on the Department of Primary Industries (DPI) website. The EDO is also based in Lismore, not Kyogle, and the

EDO’s Mark Byrne said the current regulatory structure in coping with the issues created by the new technology associated with coal-seam gas exploration was ad hoc rather than ‘hopelessly inadequate,’ as quoted. The article also stated that a petroleum exporation licence (PEL) had been issued by the DPI to Eastern Star Gas for the Moree and Warrumbungle Ranges area, but the company said last week that it only had an application for renewal, south of the Warrumbungles, which had not yet been granted.

A community farewells Louise Brown Over 380 family members and friends farewelled Louise Brown with a funeral service at the A & I Hall, Bangalow on Sunday, May 8. There were heartfelt offerings, eulogies, music, singing, candles, rose petals, flowers, food, photo collages, cards and donations. Louise’s family would like to thank all those involved in the fundraiser on April 23 in Byron Bay, at which Louise’s friends initiated a plan to keep alive her commitment to humanitarian causes and social justice: www. commongroundbyron.com/ tag/louise-brown/. A scholarship is being established in Louise’s name at the University of NSW to support students involved in social justice advocacy, as a lasting tribute to her passion for making a difference. Louise was studying International Studies, French and Law at the prestigious Science Po University in Paris as part of her combined International Studies/Law degree at UNSW. An academically gifted woman with a very strong sense of ethics and purpose, Louise had completed her HSC in 2003, gaining an ATAR of 99.35. She was awarded the NSW Premier’s Award for All Round Excellence in the HSC. Louise also later went on to win the UNSW Deans Awards for Law in 2009 and the UNSW Deans Award for Arts and Social Science in 2008.

Louise Brown: firmly devoted to working for international humanitarian causes. Photo supplied

Louise’s strong commitment to humanitarian causes was demonstrated in her role as President of UNSW – Amnesty International and by taking on an internship at the Amnesty NSW Headquarters Action Centre, Sydney, as a refugee caseworker where she acted as an advocate and prepared country information reports. Louise subsequently attended the United Nations Annual Consultations with NGOs in Geneva in June 2010 for the Australian Refugee Rights Alliance, and was acknowledged for her reports on refugees living in camps in various Asian countries. Louise was a global citizen who travelled extensively throughout the British Isles, Europe, Asia, Canada,the USA and Central America. Her travels with her father and sister throughout India in 2007 exposed Louise to true

poverty, which was formative in her sense of social justice. While in India, Louise volunteered as an English teacher to Tibetan refugees at the Lha Charitable Trust in Dharamsala. In 2010, Louise and her mother Odette spent a month travelling in Northern India. In Leh, Ladakh, they visited the Women’s Alliance run by the International Society for Ecology and Culture, and were very impressed with the worldwide localisation movement that this society promotes. Louise had intended to return to volunteer at that centre in the future. Louise and her mother Odette then spent a month in their favourite city, Paris, in August 2010, revelling in the beauty of the city, and their shared love of art and history. Louise stayed on in Paris to study at Science Po University and to perfect her French lan-

guage skills. She was due to return to Byron Bay in July 2011 and then to resume her studies at UNSW. Louise was also a talented artist and philosopher, and was devoted to yoga, meditation and vegetarianism. She will be deeply missed by her family and many friends and colleagues. Louise’s family warmly thanks the following people for their assistance and generosity with the funeral service and fundraiser: celebrant Zenith Virago, the Quigley family, Lynn Taylor, Sathya and Ravi Bessabava, Annie, Franko, Talia and Sophie Ivancich, Lesley Berry and Rosie Garven, Kathryn Boorman, Katherine Morrison, Jemma McKenzie, Marie Kingsley, Julie Wykeham, Rebecca Lines-Kelly, Sabina Waters, Alison McKay, Gerrit Blok, Steven Exton-Perry, Mick O’Regan, Carly Pascoe, Parveen Singh, Holly McGrath, Crystal Fraser, Julia McGill, Kristen Gannon, Abbie Smith, Imogen Bevins, John Sweeting, Noel Wright, Peter Davidian, Paul Kimmel, Ian Knowles and Sara SaintSaens, Richard Champion, Glen and Marshall O’Kell, the Taize, Amma and Songbirds choirs, the catering by Shan Peacock of The Beautiful Feast, and flowers from Byron in Bloom. If you would like to contribute to the UNSW Louise Brown Scholarship, contact Andrew Quigley andrewpeterquigley@ gmail.com or 0416 082 660.

Invisible to most, grand-carers are true-blue angels Victoria Cosford

They are referred to as grandcarers and they form a large body of unsung heroes in the region. Grandparents who are primary carers for their grandchildren comprise more than 700 households on the Far North Coast, and yet as a group they are mostly invisible. For the past five years, two regional organisations, the Northern Rivers Community Foundation (NRCF) and the Disability and Aged Informa-

www.echo.net.au

tion Service (DAISI), have partnered in order to attract donations and shine a light on the contributions made by these grand-carers. According to NRCF Managing Director and DAISI CEO Dona Graham, their number continues to increase. ‘They’re what we call icebergs,’ she told The Echo. ‘They’re 90 per cent out of sight. True-blue angels we call them.’ Part of their invisibility is due to the stigma and shame attached to the family situation – factors driving the need for

grand-carers include substance abuse, ill health, relationship breakdown or parents in prison. For grandparents who voluntarily accept the responsibility of raising their grandchildren there are also physical, financial and personal costs as they put their lives on hold and sacrifice their own freedom. Thanks to NRCF and DAISI there is assistance available. Their joint ‘Back-To-School’ program entitles eligible grandcarers to a $50 Target voucher for each grandchild in their care to assist with outfitting

the child for school. In the last month DAISI distributed 600 ‘Back-To-School’ vouchers to the region’s schools. NRCF’s recent fundraising concert at the Byron Bay Golf Club featured renowned blues musician Eric Bibb, who was so impressed by NRCF’s work that he donated his performance fee back to the foundation. Over the past four years NRCF and DAISI have attracted more than $400,000 in funding to the region to support grand-carers. For more info or to make a donation call 1800 800 340.

Bundjalung healer back home Hans Lovejoy

Bundjalung tribal elder and healer Gerry Bostock has arrived home. Over the last 16 years, his international journeys have taken him as far as Russia, China, Hawaii, and the UK. Notable, however, was the chance to spend a year with the Cherokee American Indians on a reservation in Oklahoma. ‘Bundjalung healings are very similar to that of the Cherokee,’ he says.

‘They also use sound healings through the use of song.’ As a young child he says he was surrounded by a family of healers. ‘I was raised on the Tweed – where the Tweed Bowling Green now is,’ he says. ‘I stayed there until I was seven or eight, then went to Brisbane for schooling. However, I learned healing before I was five. In those days it was taught around the campfire. ‘Elderly healers/shaman would come and spend their last days with my grandpar-

Council rejects change to review panel But conflict of interest problem removes one code of conduct reviewer David Lovejoy

The code of conduct measures imposed on councils by the Department of Local Government (DLG) a few years ago continue to inspire merriment, at least for those who do not have to dance to their clumsy rhythm. Tom Tabart is the Byron Shire councillor who has fallen foul of the conduct code most often. At last week’s Council meeting he introduced a notice of motion seeking to dismiss the 14 lawyers from whom reviewers are chosen and appoint a fresh panel. His motion also stated, ‘That in selecting the new panel special attention be given to avoiding any perceptions of conflict of interest as defined by the DLG.’ It transpired that one of the panel, who was undertaking other legal work from Council, had been referred to the DLG by Cr Tabart for an opinion on a conflict or perceived conflict of interest. An email from the department dated April 13 cautiously confirms that ‘if the conduct reviewer described in your scenario was providing legal services to the Council on an ongoing basis, other than those associated with the exercise of his functions as a conduct reviewer, then that person may not meet the requirement under clause 12.12 of the Model Code of Conduct that they be a “person independent of the council�.’ Another member of the panel, engaged to investigate one of the complaints by general manager Graeme Faulkner about Cr Tabart himself, had apparently disappeared into the ether, despite her $200-an-hour fee, neglecting to answer frantic messages and eventually sending a report about Cr ‘Peter’ Tabart

and a cast of characters bearing no resemblance to Byron Shire Council (her actual finding, when it finally arrived, did exonerate the real Tom Tabart). It might be reasonable, therefore, to remove two of the panel – but all of them? Yes, all of them because a notice of motion last month from Cr Tabart specifying the removal of any reviewer who ‘has performed unsatisfactorily’ or ‘could be perceived to have a conflict of interest’ (that is, the two in question) was rejected following a long comment from the general manager advising against ‘ad hoc’ reviews of individual members. The GM actually advised that a review – which he did not consider necessary – had to be ‘holistic’: that is, replace them all if you must but don’t ‘cherry pick.’

Comment on comment Hence last week’s notice of motion to indeed replace them all. In the agenda Cr Tabart took the opportunity to comment on the GM’s comments on his previous notice of motion, and the GM took the opportunity to comment on the councillor’s comments. One of the general manager’s main objections to the proposal was that there were two cases already being conducted by the current reviewers, and a change would bring unacceptable delay to the process. In his speech Cr Tabart likened this to discovering on the operating table that your surgeon was incompetent but proceeding anyway so as not to lose the hospital theatre booking. During debate Cr Ross Tucker leapt to the defence of the general manager, referring to Cr Tabart’s comments in the agenda as ‘patronising, condescending and offensive.’ He professed to find something sinister in

the motion, as if following the DLG’s rules over conflict of interest were some kind of radical plot. Cr Tucker was faithfully echoed by Cr Diane Woods, who was ‘confused’ by the issue and spoke confusedly about a ‘cover up’ and a ‘perversion of justice.’ When the vote was taken it unanimously rejected the motion, even Cr Tabart voting against his own proposal. He said that he knew the motion would not get up, ‘but to his credit the GM has now replaced the reviewer with the perceived conflict of interest‌ we rely on the GM’s discretion to ensure considered appointments are made in the future’. So now the GM has done what he strenuously argued against, and removed a reviewer from a case. As the member of the panel who procrastinated so long on Cr Tabart’s case should not be picked again, for the moment just 12 viable members are left. Three more staff complaints against councillors are in the pipeline, so it remains to be seen if we have enough highly paid inquisitors to operate the machinery. The DLG’s code of conduct regulations were written in good faith to keep local government honest. However, there is mounting evidence that they are being used in many councils as weapons in struggles between staff and councillors, or between councillor and councillor. Rarely do members of the public intrude upon this internecine warfare with their own grievances, although they have the right to do so. But the public may well ask how many potholes could be repaired with the money paid out to investigate what are often merely spiteful and flimsy complaints.

SPIN CYCLE 2: The PR massage is the medium Michael McDonald

Volume 25 #49

May 17, 2011

Hinduism revealed latest in the long list of unfunny religions Blasphemy took to fabric recently as Byron Bay based fashion designer Lisa Burke upset Hindus worldwide by printing an image of the goddess Lakshmi on a bikini. What demographic type of Hindu was outraged by this? According to the Times Of India online, both Indian and Australian governments stepped in ‘following protests by the Indian community in Sydney and right-wing groups in India.’ Subsequently it went worldwide as other right-wing (presumably) Hindu followers joined in the condemnation. When members of the world’s third largest religion get upset – albeit its right-wing members – it’s a good opportunity to find out more. Hinduism is generally regarded as the world’s oldest organised religion, according to www.religioustolerance.org. ‘Because of the wide variety of Hindu traditions, freedom of belief and practice are notable features of Hinduism.’ It goes onto say, it has ‘traditionally been among the world’s most religiously tolerant faiths. However, until recently, a Hindu nationalistic political party controlled the government of India. The linkage of religion, the national government, and nationalism led to a degeneration of the separation of church and state in India. This, in turn, had decreased the level of religious tolerance in that country.’ The swimwear issue highlights how religion can promote extremism and intolerance more than justice, equality and love for all. ‘Justice, equility [sic] and love for all,’ is ironically what Rajan Zed’s website says. He’s a self-described Hindu statesman, based in the USA, and is one of the many speaking God’s will against Ms Burke’s bikini line. As a lot of religious folk like to speak on God’s behalf, please indulge me if I do so on behalf of the late Jewish-American comedian Lenny Bruce. ‘Take away the right to say fuck, and you take away the right to say “fuck the government”.’ I think Lenny meant to add ‘religion’.

Can you tell your arse from your elbow? How about shit from Shinola (http://bit.ly/ bYUVbv)? More to the point, when journalists are writing on a topic, can you tell if they’ve researched it or are just parroting a media handout from a lobbyist? Lobbyism – some folk like to call it propaganda or PR – is the premier art form of our times. It comes not only from the fetid, steaming fields of advertising agencies but also from the PR units of major corporations, special interest groups like the US National Defense Industrial Association (www.ndia.org) and from government itself. Lies are their warp, spin their weft in the deceitful fabric they weave. Newspapers are bombarded by spin, from PR for cosmetics to tall yarns from politicians. According to political science lecturer Kenneth S Hicks, ‘spin’ was first used by American journalist William Safire to describe electoral politics. Safire wrote that spin derives from 1950s slang ‘to deceive,’ which he suggested originated with the phrase ‘to spin a yarn’. A good way to start learning about spin is to visit websites such as the Canada-based Adbusters (www.adbusters.org/). They describe themselves as ‘a global network of culture jammers and creatives working to change the way information flows, the way corporations wield power, and the way meaning is produced in our society’. They take on not only advertising untruths but also the really heavy shinola such as ‘The Moral Collapse Of A Nation – what the war on terror has done to America.’ PR taking over from journalism as the prime source of ‘news’ has been a pet peeve of

The now-defunct Shinola shoe polish company is perhaps better known for its association with the phrase ‘you don’t know shit from Shinola’ than for its products.

Media Watch (www.abc.net. au/mediawatch/). ABC stalwart Jonathan Holmes also showed last week how some of the news media spun the release of Lindsay Tanner’s book Sideshow as a tell-all full of bitterness, which it is not: ‘There isn’t a hint of bitterness in the book towards any of Lindsay Tanner’s former colleagues, or even his political opponents. But he is caustic about what passes for political journalism these days. For example, he told Sky News’s David Speers: “… politicians do not have confidence that things that they say will not be grotesquely distorted and misrepresented almost from the minute they’ve said them, that happens on a daily basis, that is why you get spin, that is why you get defensive, robotic politicians”.’ Holmes is a still, small, taxpayer-sponsored voice in the wilderness of loony harangues from the likes of Alan Jones (http://bit.ly/aP6yoF). There you’ll see, for instance, Jones’s devoted acolytes slavishly following his line on a carbon tax. Good that he likes Vera Lynn. Crikey (www.crikey.com. au), too, has a section devoted to media spin. On coverage of that wedding, Jeremy Sear

observes: ‘You know that “2 billion people” figure trotted out by lazy journalists as the claimed number of people who watched the other week’s royal wedding? It seems a bit suss when you think about it, doesn’t it? Where did they get it from? Why is it never actually sourced from anywhere? 2/7ths the entire population of the planet? Really? ‘Yeah, I’m sure six times more Indian viewers were glued to their sets for the English royals’ nuptials than for the 2011 India vs Sri Lanka cricket world cup final. And China – yeah, who could doubt that a huge percentage of their 1.3 billion population were tuned in?’ In fact, you could say the entire Crikey website looks at how issues are spun by the different estates of society. (The press allegedly became called the Fourth Estate by 18th century philosopher Edmund Burke. The other estates under British parliament are the clergy, the hereditary lords and the common folk. Oscar Wilde wrote: ‘In old days men had the rack. Now they have the press… We are dominated by journalism.’ This by the man who was a master of self-promotion.) Q Q Q Q

Thanks to Hans Lovejoy’s omnivorous reading habits I have been looking into not Chapman’s Homer (http://www.bartleby.com/101/634.html ) but into Propaganda by the father of spin Edward Bernays (IG Publishing www.igpub.com/ propaganda.html). It’s worth it alone for the introduction by Mark Crispin Miller, in which we learn the word ‘propaganda’ was coined in 1622 as part of the push by Pope Gregory XV to curb the inroads of Protestantism on the ‘one true faith’. Bernays – who lived happily to 103, thus proving the universe has no opinion on our personal morality – was at one time employed by the United Fruit Company, which had the advantage of the CIA’s cooperation in overthrowing a democratically elected government in Guatemala. I’m told Adam Curtis’s doco The Century Of The Self (http://bbc. in/5SWI8) admirably covers Bernays while examining how PR firms and politicians have used Sigmund Freud’s theories to help ‘engineer consent’. See also The Anatomy of Spin by Kenneth S Hicks (www.rsu.edu/faculty/khicks/ Essays/Spin.htm) and PR Watch (www.prwatch.org). For a bit of light relief, visit that great satirical online magazine The Onion (www.theonion. com) which tells us what spin would be like if it were actually funny while hardhitting – see especially ‘PR Firm Kills Innocent Child’. Q Q Q Q

And once one has discovered that one is being spun to, the appropriate response is that of Clint Eastwood’s creation Outlaw Josey Wales: ‘Don’t piss down my back and tell me it’s raining.’ Q Q Q Q

Mungo is on holiday until June 7.

Council coastal plans in disarray Q Poor

Dailan Pugh, he and his Coastal Zone Management Plan have collapsed in a heap of faded Green ideologue’s dreams (Letters, May 10). He has wasted 14 years of his life pursuing the residents of the Belongil Beach, Suffolk Park and New Brighton and all to no avail. When the Greens started out on coastal management plans in 1997, they envisaged removing over 500 homes and more than a thousand residents from the Byron Shire beachside areas. During that time, the Greens have stacked the Council coastline committees, infiltrated the state government bureaucracy and binned the consultant reports that didn’t fit their world view of imminent ecological apocalypse. Millions of rate dollars and 14 years later, with a Brazilian rainforest of paper reports, hundreds of meetings, eye-watering consultant bills and mountains of expensive legal advice consigned to the trash can, it has all collapsed around Mayor Barham and Dailan Pugh like the Lighthouse Road walkway. For over a decade, the residents here have fought Dailan Pugh, Mayor Barham and her colleague, Ian Cohen, on this

Immoral letting

Dear Fast Buck$, In answer to the question: ‘Under what circumstances, if any, is it permissible to use residential premises for shortterm accommodation?’, under the circumstances that the short-term occupants are not paying rent, ie when friends, family or unpaid ‘house sitter’ occupy the residential premises while the owner/occupant or residential tenant is absent. Short-term accommodation which involves the exchange of money for accommodation is commercial accommodation and thus must be located in premises that are zoned com-

issue every inch of the way and we will continue to do so, only now it’s with the help of a new Coalition state government which does not owe the NSW Greens any favours. But they don’t give up easily. This week, while pleading for extra financial assistance from the state government for the huge black hole (or is that a pothole) in Council’s budget, they ordered the surveyors back into the Belongil to ‘ground-truth’ the properties the Green councillors would like to see demolished. However, it turned out to be Groundhog Day for Council all over again. Lawyers for the residents challenged once again the legality of Council’s actions and once again Council withdrew. Instead, they merely surveyed the primary dune, which they have done many, many times since 1976 and found it still in the same place. The Mayor is now off to her plush appointment at the NSW Upper House. She will be far too busy to fix up Byron Shire any more.

the singling out of the beachfront homes for destruction. The Coastal Zone extends a kilometre inland and includes estuaries, creeks, rivers and canals etc and the homes beside them. All of which are equally affected by sea-level rise. Sure, the beachfront takes the brunt of storms, but the creeks, rivers and canals take the brunt of the flooding. What are the state and federal governments doing to control the causes of sea-level rise? And most important of all, how did Byron Shire Council end up defining Australia’s response to sea-level rise? Council needs to recall or reform the community committee and work with the locals to create a new and effective coastal plan. There has been an awful lot of money spent on this issue from both sides. Can we now work together? (And spend the savings on the roads?!) Remember Community Consultation? There is a fair bit that can be salvaged from the previous studies. The gorilla in the room is Planned Retreat and we will all need to contribute and cooperate on that one!

I appreciate Dailan Pugh’s despair over the abandonment

of the Coastal Zone Management Plan by Council. Indeed, a large amount of the council’s and the community’s time and money has been wasted. But I question his use of the term ‘spurious grounds’. I was at the AGM of the Byron Preservation Association and I heard that the council fought strenuously against the legal tide until it was threatened with a suit for ‘reckless abuse of its power’. That was a new one to me, but apparently that means staff members can also be sued. No wonder they backed off. It was the planned retreat issue that was the problem, and still is. It is a very complex issue where fantasy and reality and politics all meet and butt heads. It seemed bizarre that Council should be responsible for the removal and destruction of state and federal infrastructure, and terrifying that it gave the council power to just tell you to leave your home and then pay for its demolition. That power would have created a precedent that could also apply to bushfire zones and flood zones. Thus we could all end up living in the council chambers! Even more unsettling was

mercial. What defines ‘short term’: less than a 12-month lease. All the ‘holiday letting’ in residential zones is unlawful, including the short-term ‘rent a room’ directly from the landlord or real estate agent (as opposed to renting a room in a ‘share house’ that is occupied by a lawful residential tenant). The practice of ‘rent a room’ directly from the owner (or agent of owner), when the owner does not reside at that residential property, is effectively operating an unlawful boarding house. It is also negligence, as the unlawful boarding house does not comply with the health

and safety codes of a lawful boarding house. Landlords/ agents operating such unlawful accommodation could be charged with criminal negligence should any ‘short-term’ boarder or visitor come to harm while on premises. Unlawful ‘holiday letting’ in residential zones deprives local residents of access to residential zone accommodation (ability to rent the residential premises as a home) – thus the practice is immoral. Unfortunately, as with most regulations, there is an exemption: in the event that the residential property is ‘for sale’, the owner may rent the residential

property ‘short term’ (without a lease) until such time as the property is sold. It is expected that the owner will rent the ‘for sale’ residential property at least one-third below the property rental market value as compensation to the ‘shortterm’ tenant for the unknown length of tenancy, the added expense to the tenant moving into a ‘short-term’ rental and out – possibly at short notice – the inconvenience of the tenant being required to regularly ‘tidy up’ at short notice for viewing

of property and the invasion of the tenant’s ‘right to peaceful and private’ occupancy of the residential premises due to regular viewing of the property by prospective buyers. Under the aforementioned exemption, the landlord is expected to permit the ‘shortterm’ tenant to continue to be the tenant until such time as the residential property is sold, not change short-term tenants every few months. In the event that the landlord evicts the ‘short-term’ tenant from the residential property that is for sale (without valid reason), the residential property must remain vacant until sold or withdrawn.

Years ago when ReGenesis applied to turn farm into lawn on the muddy slopes north of Main Arm village, their rezoning promised us every ecological bell and whistle you could think of, and half of Tasmania to boot. Council said yes. When it then came to the DA for subdivision, guess what? It did what ‘they’ all do: maximised lot yield and minimised public benefits. Luckily ReGenesis were held to one of their promises, to upgrade the deadly causeway that its new settlers would use to get to work to pay off their mortgages.

there would have been severe repercussions. If Ken Thurlow, of the bizarrely named Ecofishers, did indeed mislead a parliamentary inquiry on a number of occasions, as was alleged on the front page of The Echo last week, he could be found in contempt of Parliament and called before the Bar of Parliament to explain his behaviour. These allegations now need to be referred to the Parliamentary Privileges Committee for investigation and report back to Parliament. If false evidence were given to a parliamentary inquiry and policy was changed as a result it would be a travesty.

Coordinator Mullumbimby Community Action Network Q To clarify last week’s article ‘Developer’s DA dropped after protests’: we are not against bike paths! But we are definitely not in favour of a bike path that leads nowhere and would be too steep and dangerous for our kids to use. In light of Eric’s courtesy to move our seedlings, I find his directive to obtain council approval for our little tree planting farcical. What is

the psychology behind lodging DAs that ignore the Land and Environment Court rulings and the wishes of our community? As a part of the stage two development application he has now lodged plans to excavate some two metres and more along the ridgeline within a large grove of mature bushbox trees. We are not against development. We are opposed to development that is out of scale with Mullumbimby and that is not sustainable. We have endured now three and half months, six days a week, earth works with excavations up to three metres and it’s only stage one of seven stages. We are hopeful that the larger community of Mullumbimby in light of the current congestion and lack of parking in Mullum will attend a public forum on the size of Eric’s huge development and the impact of new residents of another 250 plus houses on Mullumbimby.

It is with some relief that I read that Eric Freeman, developer of Tallowood Ridge Estate, has withdrawn his DA to partially concrete the ancient Indigenous access route which runs from the high ground of Koonyum Range in the east to the low ground of the coast in the west. Mooibul Spur on the ridgeline has been identified as of cultural significance as well as koala habitat. To illuminate the ‘context’ Eric points out (Echo, May 10), ‘Recommendation 1: Activities in the Maximum Retention Area may include some clearing and levelling to allow the building of roads, paths and subsurface infrastructure ‌’ However, Eric omits an important contextual consideration being the final words of Recommendation 1 which are: ‘...provided that Recommendation 2 is followed’. Recommendation 2 refers to Post Clearance Inspection area, of which Mooibul Spur is part, and reads ‘... where there

only ‘the publisher accepts responsibility’. Anyway when staff recently presented a 40-page response to a Council resolution regarding holiday letting, again there was much to criticise. But to whom do I shoot the blame? The document was presented this time under the auspices of Corporate Governance, run by Mark Arnold, but I’m 110 per cent sure that it was written by a senior lawyer. There are no senior lawyers working for Council and there would be a conflict of interest even if there were any. We do have a junior lawyer in Shannon McKelvey, Head of Organizational Support, but she doesn’t have a practising certificate and is expressly prohibited in her job description from giving legal advice (all those verbal responses she until recently gave councillors during meeting were not legal advice apparently, they were um...er..., and that three-page letter she sent me last year on clause 45 was also not legal ad-

vice but rather um....er....). Whoever wrote this recent 40-pager clearly put in a lot of work, yet we are repeatedly told by Mr Faulkner that staff are overworked and don’t have time for this and that. Furthermore when we look under ‘financial implications’ in the staff report we see ‘nil’. This either means that said lawyer worked for free (!) or his/her fee was buried in the existing legal budget. I note that Mr Faulkner has the delegated authority to obtain his own legal advice independent of the elected Council. This would definitely not be the case if I were mayor. At this point I’m not sure if lawyers are professionally obliged to disclose their input, or to whom, but presently I have no name as a basis for complaint to the Legal Services Commission, the Bar Association or the Law Society. I also note that staff would probably only have to change one or two sentences in the putative legal advice for it to be considered a bona fide staff

report, no longer legal advice. So in the good old days, when transparency and accountability were mere aspirations, you at least knew who your adversary was. These days, when transparency and accountability have been (notionally) incorporated said adversaries are in some ways more elusive. I hope Jan Barham has learned from this: questions of a legal nature should be expressly obtained from lawyers, not from staff. If you’re going to rely on non-lawyers you might as well rely on my summary:

1. The 2(a) residential zone prohibits tourist facilities. 2. Tourist facilities provide short-term accommodation (and recreation). 3. Holiday letting provides short-term accommodation. 4. Holiday letting is a form of tourist facility. 5 Legal precedents have consistently held that short-term accommodation is not permissible in a 2(a) zone. 6.

Dattler wins balloon Australian Championship Mullumbimby’s Thomas Dattler claimed the 17th Australian Hot Air Ballooning Championship, recently held in Canowindra, in central western NSW. Dattler, a German native who has been living in the Shire for the past 16 years, nailed two impeccable flights in the challenging weather conditions and ousted the field of 23 competitors, which included some of the biggest names in Australian ballooning. All very impressive given the fact that Dattler had never participated in a ballooning competition before, and entered the Canowindra Challenge as an absolute rookie. The Byron Bay Ballooning Team also consisted of ground crew members Lui Monacelli and Emiliano Cataldi, also from Byron Bay, who provided Thomas with an important support on the ground. Well done team!

Balustrade/fencing business wins design award Sentrel Vertical Cable Balustrade and Pool Fencing has just been awarded ‘Best New Product - Architectural External & Structural Products’ at this year’s Melbourne DesignEX. Australia’s leading design and architecture event presents the best in contemporary and classic designs, and the trade-only event has been at the forefront of the design and architectural arena for over 20 years. Interior designer and executive sales manager Jennifer Fair was delighted with the honour, reflecting that a great deal of hard work had gone on behind the scenes to get the product to the show. ‘In a product like pool fencing and balustrade, complying with Australian Standards is essential. The testing is rigorous. Engineer certification and quality craftsmanship are essential to us. We made it through the process and the design is still stunning! We love it’. Jen and her partner Bob Acton, from South Golden Beach, first came into contact with Sentrel by entering and winning a competition for $6,000 of Sentrel’s Pool Fencing in 2009. Bob is a building designer, so between them there were a few ‘lively conversations’ about which way to go for pool fencing. Glass was good-looking but needed cleaning and didn’t let the breezes through, steel didn’t offer any kind of visual appeal to them as designers and horizontal cable balustrade has never been legal for pools. They loved the vertical cable Sentrel product so much they became partners in Sentrel Australia and are taking the business around the country with their enthusiasm and expertise. Congratulations to Sentrel the team.

Many Byron Shire locals remember the twinkle in his eyes, and the bristle in his moustache. Stuart Owen Fox was a leading professional photographer for over 40 years. He led three lives, firstly in the US as the budding apprentice to New York’s best photographers, secondly as one of the primary leaders of the anti-Vietnam war movement based in Denmark, and finally in Australia, becoming one of this country’s leading professional photographers. Through visits to over 80 countries he produced over 1.5 million publishable images. His images have appeared in over 300 books, magazines from Organic Gardener to Playboy and in countless brochures and other printed and audiovisual forms. In 1980 he was the only photographer chosen by Kodak to celebrate the company’s centenary. Fox developed an entirely new method of producing images using a flat-bed digital scanner. His visually and technically stunning images present many aspects of nature in a hyper-realistic scenario he called DDI (Direct Digital Imaging). Born in 1942 in Southern California, Fox’s first job was as cub reporter on a San Fernando daily newspaper. ‘You take pictures, don’t you?’ asked the editor. ‘Sure I do,’ said the young rookie. ‘Jobs were scarce, he expected me to take pictures, so I did,’ said Fox. He managed to take only one photo with the camera he was operating on his first assignment, but that one photo was publishable. In 1962 he arrived in New York to become a professional photographer. ‘I found a loft to live in with a bunch of hippies but at that time they weren’t called hippies, just locals.’ In a Greenwich Village café Fox spoke with his most revered photographic mentor,

The younger Stuart Owen Fox in the Himalayas with an unnamed sherpa.

the late Henri Cartier-Bresson, who told him of the discipline to be learnt from the sole use of the 50mm lens and of the intensity of purpose required to capture the essence of the moment. Cartier-Bresson’s recommendation resulted in an invitation from Nobel Prize winning author Pearl S Buck to travel to Japan. While in Hiroshima, Fox was confronted by several loud US military men. He was astonished to read their comments in the Hiroshima War Memorial visitors’ book such as ‘a bigger one next time you yellow bastards’ and ‘wait till you taste our hydrogen bomb.’ ‘That event more than anything catapulted me into the forefront of the Vietnam antiwar movement … I returned to the US and linked up with like-minded people until the situation became too difficult for me. After being called up for Vietnam, I had to leave.’ So he went to Europe. ‘I did an Einstein, gave up my citizenship, like he did when called up for the military.’ He was named Danish ‘Artist of the Year’ for his contribution to photography and went

on to represent Denmark, and eventually Australia, at World Expos in Japan, Canada, the US, Spain and Brisbane. He was also the liaison person for people escaping the war, getting them jobs, permits to help them stay in the country and homes to take them in. A photographer’s dream commission from a Norwegian shipping company to photograph ‘the most beautiful places in the world’ brought him to Australia for the first time, and he eventually settled at Myocum. He set about becoming one of Australia’s busiest professional photographers working in the much-revered Australian environment. Later in life Stuart Owen Fox travelled to Cooktown to develop his Direct Digital Imaging process over a four-year period. Re-visiting his admiration for scientific truths, Fox employed the work of Sir Isaac Newton to solve the riddle of the lack of depth of field inherent in electronic scanners. He digitally recorded many of the indigenous plant species recorded by Sir Joseph Banks. In the end Fox gave away away to friends and acquain-

tances or allocated to the dump many of his negatives, images and other evidences of an extraordinary life. ‘I know that I’ve been there and done that, I don’t need to keep the proof,’ said Fox. ‘I’ve had an extremely successful and fulfilling life in photography, but that’s all in the past. The future isn’t even important anymore, just today.’ In November 2009 Stuart passed away in Amsterdam from the effects of a severe stroke. Q The only evidence of Fox’s life are the photos he gave to friends. One of Stuart’s dear friends Stan d’Argeavel is travelling to Byron Bay and displaying his private collection at the Byron Bay Community Centre Theatre. He is doing this in conjunction with the showing of the Craig Hearps’s play Love Let Me Out on May 20 and 21 at the Byron Community Centre and to accompany the amateur photography competition honouring Men At Work.

Better Healthcare for your Family Justine Elliot MP

The Gillard Labor Government is committed to ensuring everyone has access to world-class healthcare close to home, no matter where they live. That is why this Federal budget sees an unprecedented $3 billion investment in health reform across Australia, which provides improved public hospitals and cancer facilities, boosts dental care and supports bowel cancer screening and immunisations for children. It also includes the largest Commonwealth commitment to mental health services in Australia’s history including $1.5 billion worth of investments in this Budget. MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT The Labor Government’s $2.2 billion Mental Health Reform package provides more intensive support services in those communities that need it most, with a total of 90 Headspace clinics as well as early detection to support young people who struggle with mental illness.

SUBSIDISED MRI SCANS Medicare will cover the cost of more Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans, particularly in regional areas, meaning more people will benefit from faster diagnosis and early detection of disease.

QUALITY DENTAL CARE The Labor Government will establish a voluntary dental internship program to encourage graduates to expand their skills and work in the public dental system, improving community access to dental services.

CATCH UP VACCINATIONS We are also funding a catch up program for a pneumococcal disease vaccine on the National Immunisation Program for eligible children, to ensure children are better protected.

Unexpected, tragic catch of the day Jann Gilbert

This juvenile Crested Tern thought he was diving for a fish. Unfortunately, it turned out to be his last. Every day, Australian Seabird Rescue (ASR) sees the impacts of active and passive fishing on marine wildlife – from hook, line and sinker ingestion; line, hook and net entanglements and injuries; bait bag or other plastic debris ingestion and entanglement; boat strikes; and starvation from a lack of fish stocks. ‘Most of the seabird and marine turtle injuries we treat, and many of the causes of death, are a direct result of active fishing,’ said ASR general manager Rochelle Ferris. Line and hook ingestion generally result in gut impaction or perforation, while entanglement can cause a raft of injuries or result in drowning, suffocation and strangulation. Many injured marine animals suffer a slow and painful death through constriction of airways and blood vessels, infection, dehydration and starvation. ‘Hook ingestion and line entanglements are common be-

cause many of the areas where seabirds and other marine wildlife hunt are also popular fishing grounds,’ said Ms Ferris. But, as she points out, ‘Marine wildlife expect to find food in the ocean, no strings attached, if you’ll pardon the pun, and that’s why marine sanctuaries are so important.

Protected zones mean that marine wildlife at least have some areas that are free from direct human impact.’ While less than one per cent of the world’s oceans are protected, since 2006, leading marine scientists worldwide have been calling for global protection for between 30 and 50 per cent of oceans. This is in an effort to slow the rapid collapse of fish stocks, especially large species such as shark and tuna, and the devastating consequences to marine ecosystems. ‘Lack of food, loss of habitat and marine pollution and debris pose the greatest threats to marine wildlife all over the planet,’ said Ms Ferris. ‘Humans can be quite arrogant to think they have the right to take resources from wherever and whenever they feel like it, and to leave their rubbish behind. It would be irresponsible to future generations to allow that to continue unchecked.’ Education and awareness, Ms Ferris believes, are the keys to reducing the human impact on the marine environment. ‘A great deal of ASR’s work

and mission, apart from marine wildlife rescue and rehabilitation, is about public education. ‘Fishing responsibly, buying sustainable seafood species, reducing the use of plastic and balloons, and reducing waste overall are just some of the things that everyone can do to make a difference.’ And to avoid lethal encounters with marine wildlife like the juvenile Crested Tern, Ms Ferris believes that, ‘by choosing not to fish near marine animals that are feeding, by taking all of your redundant fishing line and tackle, and any other rubbish with you, you’ll be giving marine wildlife a fighting chance. ‘If you do catch more than you intended, never cut the line! Reel the animal in, unhook it, and call ASR’s marine wildlife hotline for assistance.’ To report sick or injured marine wildlife call ASR’s 24-hour hotline on 0428 862 852.

Making every school a Great School

Justine Elliot MP

The Gillard Government believes in the transformative power of education and is deeply committed to making every Australian school a great school. This will help our kids get a world class education and the best start in life. That’s why the 2011-2012 Budget has delivered over half a billion dollars of funding to ensure we recognise and reward quality teachers and improve schools. STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES We are delivering a $200 million package to support students with a disability in our Government, Catholic and Independent schools, including new services such as speech and occupational therapy delivered at school, additional hours of in-class support and access to specialist equipment.

TEACHER PAY We are delivering on our commitment to bring in Australia’s first national system of pay bonuses for around 25,000 – or one in 10 – of our best teachers. We are doing this because we know teachers play a huge role and giving children the best start in life possible.

NATIONAL TRADE CADETSHIPS PROGRAM From 2012 students from years 9 to 12 will be offered a new National Trade Cadetship as an option under the Australian Curriculum. This Cadetship will be delivered through their local Trades Training Centre and other eligible venues. Up to 50,000 additional structured work experience places will also be provided to students.

SCHOOL CHAPLAINCY The National School Chaplaincy Program supports schools and their communities to establish school chaplaincy services or to enhance existing services. The Gillard Labor Government through the Budget has committed $222 million to fund services for up to 3700 schools.

The Federal Labor Government has nearly doubled the national education budget.

What’s the secret to your success? There’s no real secret, but a lot of hard work and the will to keep pushing and moving things forward. If we do have a secret weapon, it would be Carlo. He literarily works around the clock, now working in multiple international time zones, and is just relentless. It’s not easy what we do but it’s definitely worth it if music is your thing. Those things, combined with a good team and a live show with a difference, are what we have been able to travel the world with so far. And we are ever grateful for those opportunities. What are the long-term plans for BKB? We see ourselves as continuing to have an evolving and socially conscious presence in the international and national music scene, recording and touring new music and sentiments that reflect the ethics and morals of our generation and our time here on earth We’re also really into collaborating and working with artists we’re inspired by and others outside our genre who are creating something fresh and real. We recently collaborated with Gurrumul on a beautiful song called Gathu Mawula Revisited. This was the first collaboration for Gurrumul and he was great to work with in the studio and at the video shoot. The single Gathu Mawula Revisited is available on iTunes. Also you’ve got to check out Gurrumul’s new album Rrakala – it’s beautiful. Working along Sly & Robbie‌wow, tell me a little more about the new album. The new album, WORLDWIZE PT 1 North and South, took us to the homeland of so much of the music we listen to and are inspired by: Kingston, Jamaica. We wanted to go there to record the vocal parts for the album because we wanted to be surrounded by the energy and vibe of the music scene there. It was inspiring to work in studios like Tuff Gong and exciting to meet, connect and even collaborate with some of our favourite Jamaican artists. There are two tracks on WORLDWIZE that feature Sly and Robbie, Mo Truth Northside and Say Peace Southside. Sly was working at one of the studios where we spent most time, Anchor Studios, and we had a connection to him through the Spearhead camp, so he came in to one of our sessions to listen to some tracks and see if there was anything we could do as a collaboration. He picked those two songs and came through the next day with Robbie. This was definitely one of the main highlights for us. They are both really cool and chilled, friendly guys. We later did the RaggaMuffin tour with them in Australia and have been keeping the link. Other than that we have Jah Mason and Queen Ifrica as the other Jamaican representatives on the album.

How has the music of BKB changed since you left here? Since we left Byron Shire our music has evolved and continues to evolve. In our most recent album you can hear there’s more of the urban influence coming through with tracks like Teachers are Leaders and Everywhere We Go, but we are still most definitely strongly inspired by our percussive background which you can hear on Our Word Is Our Weapon where we recorded 100 Samba parts to build the bed and soul of the track. Our sound is ever growing and expanding at the moment; I’ve started writing a lot using Logic with my small home studio setup and have been programming mainly dancehall, world beat sounds and layering all my vocals myself etc…learning the new tools we have and using them to create new sounds and push genre definitions.

Chocolate Cake in Lismore My Friend the Chocolate Cake is an intensely colourful and relentlessly honest musical mirror to Australia’s complex national character. Featuring singer songwriter David Bridie, a man who doesn’t gild the lily. He reckons its a ‘classic cake mix’ with distinctive pop-noir, brooding urban angst and rich filmic gravitas. Featuring strings and piano with big tunes from the sublime to the plainly daft. Thursday at Lismore City Hall.

What do you think is the essence of a BKB show…I suppose it's your point of difference? I guess some things that may make BKB stand out to folks is that we’re made up of really talented individual musicians, which makes the quality of the solos and improvisations high. We fuse the percussion and energy we learnt from performing on the streets of places like Byron, with danceable melodies and grooves. All in all a fairly high-energy conscious show for all age groups. I think the fact that we’re an 8–11 piece band fronted by a woman adds something a little different too. :) Do you still feel a bit of an affinity with Byron as your creative starting point? Absolutely! There is no question that Byron and the Shire has had an incredible influence on my musical upbringing. A bigger part of what I’ve learnt about being – not just a musician but an entertainer – has come from our time on the streets of Byron and at the markets busking and connecting with other musicians, which opened a lot of great relationships that would further nurture our musical education.

It’s been almost four years since a drummer in Mullumbimby received a phone call from the Hotel Brunswick looking, at short notice, for a band which could fill in for a late cancellation. Ringing around, the drummer was able to line up his second cousin, a raconteurial golfing cohort, and a long-time friend and musical collaborator…this unrehearsed but highly talented assortment took to the stage that weekend, and Broadfoot was born. Catch them at the Hotel Brunswick on Saturday.

PAGE 3 GIRL You’d think that since women won the right to vote, we’ve pushed for equal pay, championed for equitable work conditions and opportunities, we’ve agreed to time share our role as slave and nurturer in the home, and now we have the right to join the blokes on the frontline that the bikini-clad Page 3 Girl would be a thing of the past. Not so in the Tweed. It would appear that The Tweed Coast Weekly are more than happy to bring us a little sexist nostalgia in the form of a hot, bronzed bikini babe kneeling with her legs spread in the surf. Actually when I am swimming I often get the urge to arch my back provocatively and let the white water lap my naked thighs. It’s a bit uncomfortable for the other mums and their kids at Torakina where I tend to swim but I do realise now that I’m going to have to be more careful. There could be a Tweed Weekly camera scouting for Page 3 material.

What a wonderful message we are sending to young women who may be considering their options in the workforce. I was worried that my three teenage girls didn’t have a sense of direction. But now I can see a whole career pathway opening for them. Bikini Babe could be a new TAFE certificate. I mean, think of the study you’d need to do. There’s so much material to cover. Blue bikinis, white bikinis, red bikinis. How to safely apply spray tan. Waxing 101. Teeth Whitening. Ab maintenance. Breast enlargements. Brain reductions. How to pull the ultimate blow-job pout. Page 3 girls are soft porn and are not the stuff of free weekly newspapers that everyone from nanna and pop to your toddler has a guernsey at. Hot chick snaps belong in Penthouse or Playboy mags. They should reside at truckstops, not tuckshops. As a woman I find it completely degrading – rampant objectification of women based on a tired old At size 16, I reckon I’d need all of Page 3 and a crack at Page 4. Ironically in the Friday May 6 edition, sexy Jaimie Martin (who I perception of what it is to be attractive: young, slim, semidon’t think is a Tweed girl btw) is placed beside an article with naked and usually white. the headline ‘Business Women Recognised’. The article goes How about some equity with my weekly? If the Tweed Coast on to encourage the North Coast community to nominate Weekly are going to run Page 3 girls, then why not run a few business women to celebrate their amazing achievements. Page 3 boys as well? And what about us ugly girls: don’t we Mr Telstra, one of the major sponsors, even says ‘The Awards get a shot at it? We could pose in our tracksuit pants. And contribute to encouraging greater gender equality in business.’ what about older people? There’s a lot of hot coastal nannas that shouldn’t be ignored – you’ve seen them on the beach, Really? Will there also be a section for oiled-up man-studs in hot pink g-strings? Because from the article and the pic, there’s little raisins in a black bikini. some pretty dodgy business going on. Clearly Ms Martin is a Page 3 cougars. And what about some of us fatties? Perhaps very good business woman. Looking fabulous in her hot pink you could feature us in our boardshorts and t-shirts romping bikini, she’s what I’d call an ‘owner operator’ and is quite happy in the fridge. I’m wondering if Jackie Claire, publisher of Marie to advertise her merch. Hell, I reckon she’d get a lot of merger Claire, has any idea that her quote ‘We have championed offers, and on a good day she’d be up for a whole corporate women’s issues and we encourage women to fully realise their takeover. Her assets certainly aren’t going to liquidate for at strengths and talents’ has encouraged rolling in the surf and least ten years. flashing of nice tanned titties.

LETTING LOVE IN LOCAL THEATRE WORKER CRAIG HEARPS HAS JUST RETURNED FROM LAUNCHING HIS NEW WORK LOVE LET ME OUT AT METRO ARTS IN BRISBANE. THE WORK BUILDS ON HEARPS’S PREVIOUS THEMES ESPECIALLY IN A MALE PROTAGONIST JOURNEY THROUGH A DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL. So, Craig, tell me what was the inspiration for Let Love Out? The central character’s joys and anguishes reflect a lot of my own challenges of needing to throw myself into work as a way of not having to face intimate situations with loved ones (still in denial!). As a part of this I was working as a carer for a rehab and had to stay overnight with the clients so they wouldn’t do a runner. My awkward attempts to befriend these folk with histories of addiction created the stigma from which a lot of the setting of Love Let Me Out came. It also brought up questions regarding the nature of addiction itself.

7

Bobbi-Lea Dionysius, Aussie Theatre.com: ‘…worth watching, with good writing, relevant themes, memorable characters and equally memorable actors.’ What do you think the most powerful messages are in the show? Sometimes the greatest thing a man can do is to be honest with himself in front of a loved one. Tell me a little about the cast? The cast, apart from myself, are healthy Brisbane stock. The lead has an impressive CV of film, theatre and TV. A lot of the cast came from the stable of Theatre Action Group in Brisbane. We workshopped Love Let Me Out up there and loved what they did with it and were able to discern the actors we wanted for our play. The play is coming to Byron for just two nights, so give yourself a special theatre treat. Playing at the Byron Bay Community Centre Theatre on Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm. Tickets are $25 pre-booked via www. byroncommunitycentre.com.au or phone 66 85 6807.

How was it received at the Metro Arts? What kind of feedback did you get? I’m always picky, looking for honest feedback about parts of the show that weren’t working, yet the response – so far in our second week, both critical and audience – has been resoundingly affirmative. Here’re some critical responses: Mark Theodossiou, Australian Actors Network Pty Ltd: ‘A brilliant contemporary piece of theatre now showing at Metro Arts, Brisbane. Truthful, honest, painfully clear and powerfully portrayed. Congratulations to cast and crew. A definite must see.’

Punch and Judy are coming to town with performances in Coorabell and Bangalow! Punch and Judy is live puppet comedy for kids of all ages as performed on English beaches and the streets of old London. For over two hundred years, Mr Punch has had audiences rolling in the aisles. This is the traditional, live-action show with sausage-stealing crocodiles and good oldfashioned puppet slapstick. St Martin’s in Mullum on Saturday at 11am and 2pm, and Bangalow’s All Souls’ Church Hall at 11am and 2pm on Sunday.

If you love dogs, then you are going to dig The Dog Logs. A classic pub play where standup comedians Alan Glover, Christopher Johnson and Bob Philippe present 10 monologues by dogs. Some are comic, some tragic – all are ultimately about humans and men in particular. Themes include violence, revenge, love, loss, mateship, bigotry, crime, sex, competition and vanity. Byron Theatre Community Centre on Thursday 26 May. Tix at the venue.

cinema reviews Source Code There is an old existentialist’s greeting card; it says ‘the statement on the other side is true’. Turn the card over and it says ‘the statement on the other side is false’. Director Duncan Jones and screenwriter Ben Ripley have played that card to the max while borrowing heavily from Christopher Nolan’s ‘what was that all about’ approach in their brainiac thriller (‘Ripley’s believe it or not’ is too easy a joke). Afghan war veteran Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) wakes up on a commuter train approaching Chicago. Seated opposite him is Christina (Michele Monaghan), his girlfriend – or is she? Jake, totally disoriented, hasn’t got a clue. Before anybody is any the wiser, the train is blown up by a bomb that, we soon find out, had been planted in one of the toilets. We then learn, along with Jake, that his brain is being messed with by army scientists who have perfected a technique by which the last eight minutes of a person’s memory can be replayed to them in order that they might delve back into the past and, in this case, discover who planted the bomb – maybe even re-write history. Or something like that. Time and again Jake is sent to re-live those fateful minutes before the explosion, each time taking with him the accrued snippets that he has picked up from the previous re-enactment. For a while the repetition threatens to get too cute – when Jake finds the bomb for the sixth time he utters ‘please don’t blow me up again’, a plea which you support wholeheartedly – and your mind wanders, but then the story refocuses on which of half-a-dozen passengers might be the saboteur. Gyllenhaal never fails to win sympathy, so they surely wouldn’t kill him…would they? It’s muddled, a tad silly and doesn’t bear too much close scrutiny plotwise, but it is wholly engaging and, if you’ve ever plugged away at a crossword knowing that one across will ultimately help you solve twenty-four down, weirdly terrific too. ~ John Campbell

Water For Elephants My companion reckoned that this movie was much better than what she described as a ‘pretty ordinary’ book. Taking her at her word, I’d have to say that after viewing Francis Lawrence’s screen adaptation of Sara Gruen’s humungously popular novel, I was not inspired to rush down to our underfunded library and borrow a copy. Before going on, I should also confess that the sight of a performing animal, especially a magnificent creature like an elephant, always fills me with sadness. I was able to overcome this prejudice – it was common in circuses in 1931, simple as that – but what I struggled with was an unexpected lack of gusto. It all hinges on the relationship between Jacob (Robert Pattinson) and Marlena (Reece Witherspoon), both of whom are meant to be drawn irresistibly to each other. He is the vet at the Benzini Brothers Circus, she the platinumblonde star of its big-top who also happens to be married to the ringmaster and owner, August (Christoph Waltz), an ill-tempered tyrant with a penchant for pantomime cruelty. Witherspoon contributes her always commendable best and Waltz does a nice line in psychotic jealousy, but the sexual tension is FULLY AIR-CONDITIONED

zilch. This is probably due to Pattinson, who speaks softly, broods a lot and is generally incapable of breaking out of the mould into which he has been cast as wooden Edward in the ‘Twilight’ vampire flicks. During the tepid love scene, when Jacob and the absconding Marlena at last find themselves alone in a Hicksville hotel room, I half expected (and silently urged) him to sink his teeth into her jugular – it at least would have provided a moment of passion in a romance that is strikingly devoid of it. There’s a lag in the middle section where not a lot happens; the declamatory dialogue tends to rob the story of light and shade, and the constant emotive music is laid on with a trowel. Undoubtedly, it’s picturesque and sweet, but Rosie the elephant steals the show hands down. ~ John Campbell

Last week’s solution

Mungo’s Crossword first published in The Week.

misconstrued this week, by you or someone else; either way, stay clear about your motivation and resist going into defense mode. Use Tuesday’s full moon for in-depth introspection, because decisions made now affect your future security. F TAURUS: Taurans are considered leisurely creatures, an unlikely scenario this week with the Sun, Mercury, Mars and Venus, planets of energy, communication, spunk and charm all in Taurus corner. And all making it time to really go for what you want while the force is with you. G G EMINI: Geminis know this week’s tough truths are workable by applying common sense. Don’t forget to include kindness so others will be receptive and appreciate your practical talents. The general energy could benefit from a hit of your fun loving flirtyness too, so give it your best. H CANCER: The Crab tribe are always affected by full moon and Tuesday’s could make a secret you’d never realised about yourself blindingly apparent. Welcome to the human family. Present planetary forces are supplying the insight, energetic drive and practical support necessary to establish a new balance. I LEO: If you feel like you’re not being heard this week perhaps you aren’t. But the current climate suggests taking a break from rescuing others and nurturing yourself. Sexy connections round full moon get your pleasure centres percolating, so go ahead and soak up the love. J VIRGO: If Tuesday’s intense full moon darkens your perspective and makes celebratory antidotes to sobering global realities difficult to discern, networking will lift your spirits, change your mood and attract lucky breaks. So don’t wait for invitations: reach out and take the initiative. K L IBRA: If early week full moon exaggerates work or personal

As the Candidates Matches in Kazan, Russia, reach their midpoint, it is disturbing to think that the identity of Viswanathan Anand’s world title challenger may have been decided by a faulty chess clock. Vladimir Kramnik, the last favourite left in the competition, only survived against rising star Teimour Radjabov by the skin of his teeth. Radjabov, 24, had employed a somewhat cynical path to the semi-finals; play to draw the four regulation time-limit games, do the same in the rapid (half hour) tiebreak games and then blow the older Kramnik away in the five minutes per side blitz playoffs. After four comfortable draws in the regular games and four more draws, with difficulty, in the rapid games, Radjabov struck, winning the first blitz game in the attacking style he had kept in his back pocket throughout the match. Now only a draw was needed for Radjabov – and he had managed eight of them to order

WAREHOUSE CLEARANCE CENTRE

dissatisfactions, use this as an opportunity to either give your attitude to what you’re unhappy with in your life a radical makeover, or else take the steps you know are needed to change the situation. L SCORPIO: Undercurrents brewing and stewing round your annual Scorpio full moon could activate an eruption of bottled up issues on moody Tuesday or thereabouts this week. Rejecting them isn’t the answer, forgiveness is. Not an easy ask, but it’s being asked of all of us right now. M SAGITTARIUS: You’ve been juggling so many obligations, responsibilities and pressures recently that this week’s full moon could Whoosh! perform an emotional colonic when you’re least expecting it. Let it rip then R.I.P, leaving a clear breathing space to enjoy late week Sagittarius moon’s soul refreshment. N CAPRICORN: You know you can’t please everyone so do something you can achieve this week: look after numero uno. Friday’s Capricorn moon supports what the Dalai Lama calls enlightened self interest, because if you can’t take care of yourself what gives you the right to advise anyone else? O AQUARIUS: Private, internal work brings this week’s most satisfying results, so keep your home atmosphere harmonious and your thought processes peaceful no matter what’s happening. Because home, and time with your homies, is where the heart and the art of living shine brightest right now. P PISCES: This week’s full moon in your truth zone suggests upgrading your basic beliefs and core values in line with current realities. The present emphasis is on learning, teaching and sharing your knowledge, but flaky behavior won’t be appreciated - others expect you to have done your homework.

ken man. The Azeri declined a draw in the next blitz game and was ground down in another endgame and the final game gave Radjabov plenty of chances but he allowed Kramnik to slip away and force a draw, thereby winning the quarter-final. ‘I was simply luckier,’ said Kramnik. ‘But that’s life – what can you do about it?’ While the Kramnik-Radjabov incident was unfolding, Candidates favourite Aronian and his opponent Alexander Grischuk were mid-way through their final rapid playoff game. It is unclear how much the turmoil affected the adjoining board but Aronian played his worst game of the match and was eliminated from world title contention. So the semi-finals will see Kramnik against Grischuk and Boris Gelfand, victor over Shakhriyar Mamedyarov, taking on Gata Kamsky, who gained revenge over Topalov after his 2009 elimination by the same opponent.

Billi’s Thai So, the plan was we meet at the Uncle Tom’s Pies servo at the Gateway to Mullum, early Saturday afternoon. I had money in crisply folded notes to hand over to a man to whom I had only ever spoken over the phone. And of course as soon as we swept into the parking bay it was obvious who the object of my assignation was – a chunky little truck displayed a cartoon duck on its rear – so it was all over in a matter of minutes, the duck deal successfully accomplished. That was my introduction to AJ. Two weeks later I am bumping up a steep and winding rural track to the property which constitutes the headquarters for Bangalow Poultry and Game, around 200 acres of land called Rafton’s Farm. Late afternoon sun dapples the gentle curves of surrounding hills and warms the backs of the hundreds of ducks ranging freely outside within their generous enclosure.

being released outdoors and allowed to roam around for another four or five. Of course AJ is oblivious to the stench; I am simply not inhaling. And besides, the ducks are adorable in the unique way that ducks are, happily – and I am determined that that is the word – waddling their web-footed way around, tumbling over each other, not seeming restrained or traumatised in any way. AJ later shows me a turkey in another pen surrounded by milling chickens – he started up chooks when at one point he wasn’t able to access enough ducks – and tells me that he uses it as a mother to keep the baby chickens warm when they are first placed into the large chicken tractors. (‘This is not normal practice,’ he says, ‘but it works incredibly well’. My heart melting.)

New York tips its hat to Aussie winery CAP Ultimate Wine Challenge panel of judges: Ed McCarthy, Michael Apstein, Jennifer Simonetti-Bryan MW and Lorena Ascencios. Third-generation family-owned winery Taylors Wines (www.taylorswines.com.au) has taken a huge bite out of the Big Apple, winning the Chairman’s Trophy at New York’s Ultimate Wine Challenge (/www.ultimate-beverage.com/ wine-contest) for its 2006 St Andrews Shiraz. The New York-based competition is part of the Ultimate Beverage Challenge and the wine component of the competition saw some of the best wineries in the world put their top wines forward for judging.

The only exclusively Vietnamese restaurant in town, this intimate space spilling out into a courtyard offers up fabulous dishes packed full of herbs, spices and varied textures. The traditionally light and healthy style of cuisine ensures the freshness and natural tastes of food are preserved as much as possible. It’s a popular spot so bookings are recommended.

“Local produce, global flavour” Stunning views overlooking Byron Bay www.figtreerestaurant.com.au Bon appetit!

For whatever the occassion, it is always a celebration at the Orient Express Eatery.

Vegetarian and gluten free diners can choose from a wide selection of tasty meals. A new cocktail menu list is now on offer, as well as extensive wine list..

The 2006 Taylors St Andrews Shiraz triumphed, winning the Chairman’s Trophy in the ‘Shiraz/ Syrah – World’ for best wine in the class. Mitchell Taylor, Taylors Wines Managing Director, said it was always an honour to see his family’s wines recognised among some of the finest in the world. ‘It is a testament to our winemaking team at Taylors and the care and skill that is taken in producing this flagship wine,’ Mitchell said. The 2006 Taylors St Andrews Shiraz is sourced from two exceptional blocks of shiraz on the Taylors vineyards. The historic St Andrews vineyard was bought by the family in 1995 and the first shiraz was released in 1999. The St Andrews range is Taylors’ flagship collection of wines representing the very best of handcrafted Clare Valley winemaking and also includes a riesling, chardonnay and cabernet sauvignon. This is the first year Taylors has entered the Ultimate Wine Challenge, which was founded by award-winning author, educator and critic F Paul Pacult, industry veteran David Talbot and Spirit Journal managing editor Sue Woodley.

This is not the only award for the 2006 Taylors St Andrews Shiraz, it having already won a Blue Gold at the 2011 Sydney International Wine Show. The 2006 Taylors St Andrews Shiraz retails for $60. According to Ultimate Beverage Challenge publicists, ‘A tacit and valid criticism of many competitions is that their results are inconsistent or, worse, imprecise, due to obsolete methodology or excessive doling out of medals. Ultimate Beverage Challenge has created the highest standard possible for beverage evaluation and uses a unique, progressive scoring system, designed by F Paul Pacult, that is based on the widely accepted and consumer-friendly 100-point scale. Ultimate Beverage Challenge results have more consistently and accurately recognised superb products, setting them apart from the merely average. Producers will gain the maximum benefits for products that win high scores because those products will have earned authoritative accolades rather than ubiquitous medals.’ *Taylors is marketed as Wakefield in the US due to trademark restrictions. The wine was entered under its US brand name Wakefield rather than Taylors. The Earth’n’Sea team is taking a well earned rest. The restaurant will be CLOSED FOR TWO WEEKS from Wednesday 18th May. It will reopen on Tuesday 31st May. See you back in the booths soon!

TASTE OF FREEDOM Amnesty International turns 50 on Saturday May 28 and is inviting homes and restaurants across the nation to join its global anniversary celebration by hosting a ‘Taste of Freedom’ candle-lit dinner and raising a glass to toast freedom. Amnesty International is a global movement of over three million people committed to defending those who are denied justice or freedom, and the ‘Taste of Freedom’ theme relives the inspiration that kick-started the movement. British lawyer and founder Peter Benenson said he was moved to act after reading about two Portuguese students imprisoned for raising their wine glasses in a toast to freedom. People can either host their own candle-lit dinner at home, dine at a participating restaurant, or register their eatery as a ‘Taste of Freedom’ venue in the knowledge that they will be part of a worldwide event. By registering a dinner, hosts get access to a free online supporter pack including personalised email invites, exclusive menu and recipe suggestions, and a script for their toast. More information can be found at www.tasteoffreedom.com.au.

Byron rugby takes out goliath Junior Giants great Saturday Byron Bay produced a second half of near perfect rugby to defeat champions Yamba 24-5 on Saturday. Yamba has lost only one match in the last two years and a large crowd saw the home side dominate early, but the impeccable midfield defence of Kiwi Dan and Robert Lynch forced Yamba’s usually slick backline into repeated errors. The Bay took a 3-0 lead in a hugely physical first half but gave away their advantage on the stroke of halftime after an extravagant pass was intercepted by a Yamba player who ran more than fifty metres to set up the try. Byron Bay’s finals experience last season seemed to hold them in good stead. The Bay attacked much closer to the ruck in the second half through powerful running forwards

Liam Powell and Dean Standage. Yamba’s giant pack was noticeably wilting and dynamic flanker Michael Armstrong carved them up, leaving a trail of defenders with each run. Armstrong scored first before halfback Steve White added a second try close to the line after more than twenty phases of intelligent and composed rugby. As you would expect from the reigning champions, Yamba never gave the game away but Byron virtually attacked at will in the last quarter of the match. Quicksilver Irishman Frank Kearney completed the rout stepping his way past three defenders to score under the posts. Coach Warren Fisher said it was the best performance from a Byron Bay team in his eight years at the club, ‘Certainly the second half was the best rugby

I’ve seen. To come down to Yamba with only 16 players and to dominate the way we did was remarkable. If this team works hard and remains honest with each other we can definitely improve on finishing third last season.’ In a stellar team effort, second rower David Stevens worked very hard, Tom Sandstrom directed play with great poise and captain Josh Smith lead by example with power and passion. The high standard match was helped by the quality of first grade referee Steve Williamson. Michael Armstrong was voted the player’s player. Byron Bay train every Tuesday night at the Recreation Fields at 6pm. The team travels to Murwillumbah on Saturday before their first home game of A beautiful day on Saturday set the scene for a great round of footy for the Mullumbimby Junior the season against Kyogle in a Giants.

Wilderness Society calls for off-shore marine conservation Warrick Jordan

The Newcastle chapter of the Wilderness Society is working on the East Marine Bioregional Planning Process. This is part of a nationwide process that aims to conserve marine biodiversity in Commonwealth waters around Australia – from three to 200 nautical miles off the coast. Australia is split into marine bioregions – the SE, SW, NW, N, and East. The East region is split into two parts – the Coral Sea, and the Lower East, from Fraser Island to Bermagui, and extending out to Norfolk and Lord Howe. The SE region was assessed during the Howard years. The ALP Government has promised to ensure marine bioregional plans are in place across Australia by 2012. These plans involve marine parks, and other management efforts (eg restrictions of fishing gear etc). The process involves the creation of

a bioregional profile, consultation, the creation of a draft plan (including marine park zoning) followed by 90 days’ consultation, the sign-off of the plan by the Environment Minister, further consultation, and the declaration of marine parks. It also includes structural adjustment for displaced fishing effort (a new policy was released week before last). There’s are identified Areas for Further Assessment (AFAs) within which there may be the location of marine parks. The closest AFA to Byron is the Tweed AFA, between Byron and Tweed. These AFAs won’t be one big sanctuary zone, and it’s very unlikely that they will be one big protected area of any sort. You can check them out at www.environment.gov.au/coasts/ mbp/publications/east/fs-afa.html. The SW process is progressing towards the draft plan stage, as are the NW and N areas. We’re looking at the Lower East happening some time later in the year.

The Wilderness Society Newcastle, with other conservation groups, both local and national, will be working to create awareness of some of the unique areas that exist off the coast of NSW, and getting out and about in communities, particularly on the North Coast, to speak with people about marine conservation. While there is often a lot of angst

to see what outcomes work the best for conservation and those with other interests. We’re an independent organisation that’s committed to working on conservation where it is needed. We also wouldn’t be working on a process, particularly one that is likely to have contentious aspects, if there weren’t sound conservation principles behind it.

Volunteer ethics teachers needed for primary schools Primary Ethics, the not-forprofit organisation responsible for delivering ethics classes to primary school children in New South Wales, is looking for a range of volunteers to run its Ethics program in public schools on the North Coast. It plans to run training late in Term 2 for newly recruited Ethics Teacher volunteers. Teresa Russell, director of Primary Ethics and the person in charge of rolling out the ethics program across the state, says the program has had a positive start – especially in Sydney, but that they are now looking to extend the reach into regional schools. The first step in getting an ethics program started in a primary school is to appoint a volunteer Ethics Coordinator. Ivo Correia of Bangalow has been appointed by Primary Ethics to manage its North Coast recruitment of Ethics Coordinators and Ethics Teachers. ‘We’re now trying to let people know what they have to do to get Ethics classes started,’ said Ms Russell. ‘The government isn’t providing classes, as some people think.

We’re delighted we will soon be running classes in 106 schools after getting the go-ahead just four months ago, but demand is on the rise.’ Primary Ethics plans to create an interconnected curriculum from K-6 and will start by rolling out a program for Years 5-6 curriculum in 2011, with pilot programs for children in earlier stages of education being developed over the next couple of years.

Local market picks up in wake of GFC Matt Towner It has been two years since I have worked in real estate here in the beautiful Byron Shire and it has been very interesting to see what is happening in the market now. The Global Financial Crisis certainly affected many of us and it has been a life-changing few years.

inside:

Property in focus p53

The real estate market today is very different from when I first started ten years ago and when I first came back to Byron five years ago. With the ongoing effects of the financial shake-up, we have seen a particularly flat 12 months. However, we are now starting to see signs of improvement and a general increase in interest and activity. What I see now are two very distinctly different markets with two different types of buyers and two different types of sellers. There are people who seriously want to or need to sell. Bargain hunters who are buying properties in Byron Bay are certainly benefiting. Auctions which I have attended over the past couple of months have certainly shown that, and many people would suggest that, Australia-wide, such price reductions were and are necessary. The opposite end of the market, with vendors who have

followed my old ‘wine investment model’ and only bought or created high quality products which are produced in low quantity, has held its ground. Regardless of the state of the market or of the economy they have seen incredible sales of late. A sale of over $6 million for a house on Lighthouse Road which is reported to be a knockdown and another sale of over $6 million for 20 acres at Broken Head are two examples I could offer where high prices are still being paid. We are currently seeing a lot of new discerning buyers in the market looking for unique and quality properties and these are far from budget or bargain conscious purchasers. Price is certainly an important part of any successful property sales endeavour, however presenting and correctly promoting the property to your target market is the key.

Home owners want backyard oasis Business Directory p49

Auctions & Inspections p59

Remember when a well-appointed backyard sported a sandpit and a Hills Hoist clothes line? Now it’s outdoor living rooms, saltwater swimming pools and custom patio kitchens as home owners spend more time and money in their backyard. A poll released by PRDnationwide shows what features we would invest money into to

create a backyard oasis. The majority of respondents considered building a

pergola (37 per cent) or deck (28 per cent) as their top project. PRDnationwide research director Aaron Maskrey said outdoor living is now considered an integral part of the home. ‘It’s a cost effective way to improve the liveability and value of your home,’ he said. ‘When you take the time to plan an outdoor add-on to your home, the result can be a versatile living space and a value-boosting addition to your home. ‘Decks can be relatively inexpensive to construct but are almost considered essential by potential homebuyers.’ Mr Maskrey said the idea of an outdoor living room

has really materialised as people have reattached to their existing homes. ‘Many Australians believe that outdoor space is as important as your indoor space.’ The PRDnationwide survey of 2,000 Australians found 19 per cent wanted a work shed. One in ten of those surveyed wanted a pool or spa. ‘Backyard enthusiasts are spending thousands on swimming pools with all the trimmings,’ Mr Maskrey said. Only three per cent or respondents wanted either a tennis court or sun room. ‘As land size shrinks there is less room for luxuries like tennis courts,’ said Mr Maskrey.
