Sienna Dillon with Molly and Megan Schneider from Spaghetti demonstrate how you can get high without drugs at Saturday’s Forever Young event at the Mullumbimby Memorial Gardens. Families and friends of lost loved ones gathered to enjoy free food, music, games and garden planting. Counselling and support from local service providers was also on hand. Co-organiser of the Byron Shire Youth Memorial Project, Tracy Yuen, says the day was ‘a simultaneous shared memorial for the young people we have lost in recent times, and a celebration of the strengths and talents of our youth still present.’ She says monies raised will contribute to a picnic shelter and mural art-piece to be built at the site as a permanent memorial space for the community. The site is near the skate park in Mullum, opposite the High School. Photo Jeff ‘Stilted And Sightly Off Centre’ Dawson

In 2010, Wesfarmers reported a net profit of $1.565 billion, up 2.8 per cent from the previous year. Wesfarmers also owns Bi-Lo, and the new development will be located in the same complex as the current Ocean Shores supermarket.

The state government’s Office of Fair Trading is investigating a Byron Bay real estate agency over ‘irregularities’ in its trust accounts, thought to be missing more than $550,000. Government officials this week interviewed former agents and seized computers from the offices of the up-market Belle Property Real Estate, which is now in the hands of a manager appointed to wind down the business. For the past year the agency had been run by principal, Sarah Dougan, who has a background in Sydney real estate and finance. Ms Dougan told The Echo that the trust funds were ‘put out of whack by a major property settlement’; that she was not involved in any intentional wrong-doing, that she has not benefited personally and she was happy to co-operate with investigators. Longtime local agent Frances O’Connor sold her business to Ms Dougan a year ago and resigned as licensee at the agency in February.

In the past month the Office of Fair Trading has received a number of complaints about the activities of Belle’s Byron office, including one from a seller believed to be owed over $100,000, after cheques from Belle’s trust funds bounced. In another case former barrister Tim Gotterson made a complaint alleging that at a critical time in the sale of his Broken Head property, an important offer from a possible purchaser was not passed along to him by one of Ms Dougan’s agents. While Mr Gotterson believes this may be a potential breach of industry rules, Sarah Dougan told The Echo the agent hadn’t met the possible purchaser and the offer was not made in writing. In June the national management of the Belle group contacted Fair Trading, alerting them to a number of alleged irregularities in the Byron office, before terminating its franchise agreement. The state’s Fair Trading Commissioner said via a statement this week that clients of the former Belle agency and anyone affected by its ‘irregulari-

NR Tourism calls for collaboration, leadership quired than just one campaign, and that small businesses should be looking at other opportunities and other solutions. Engaging with the Council is important, as is supporting events such as the Writers’ Festival, the Film Festival and Bluesfest. ‘Splendour would have been massive, and the fact we haven’t had it for two years has made people realise the importance of it. We can’t be complacent about the festivals; we should support them wherever possible.’ He said that the amount of money currently available to support tourism is unprecedented. ‘We should be taking advantage of it, and looking closely at what type of tourism we want and what product to create for it. ‘What tourism mix do we want here? A mix of backpackers, families and internationals – so let’s create those businesses and those products to attract them to our town. ‘There are so many opportunities here. Let’s look at how to do things better when there’s a downturn. ‘Let’s take this opportunity to make something good out of it, something more than just a marketing campaign.’ Council’s Tourism Advisory Committee (TAC) is a relatively newly formed committee which aims to work with

In light of recent concerns and claims of Byron’s business downturn, Northern Rivers Tourism has called for leadership and more collaboration between Council and business groups. The comments by chairman Cameron Arnold come after two recent meetings in Sydney with the State Minister for Tourism, Major Events, Hospitality, Racing & the Arts, George Souris. He says the meetings concerned regional tourism on the North Coast, and included discussions on Destination NSW, the new body replacing Tourism NSW and Events NSW, and the legendary Pacific Coast Touring Route. In interview with The Echo, Mr Arnold also queried the economic long-term viability of the region’s commercial sector: ‘Are the shops that are closing the ones we wanted anyway?’

‘Byron Bay is an incredible point for tourism,’ he said. ‘It’s our drawcard internationally, and should be domestically. ‘But it’s vital to have this coordinated approach, a co-ordinated alliance within tourism and business perspectives.’ Mr Arnold also added that many more factors were re-

Council, business and community groups to manage tourism. Head of TAC, Councillor Basil Cameron, agrees that ‘jointly we can all do better.’ He told The Echo, ‘Through a roundtable consensus approach, we can develop solid working relationships. ‘We need to fine-tune our working relationships so any funding we attract will best serve our community,’

Council’s tourism plan Cr Cameron said that the vision of Northern Rivers Tourism is aligned with TAC. ‘We’ve got to be smarter about who we ask to come here and who we attract here,’ he said. ‘It’s all about getting better value, employment and training opportunities, looking after the environment – in other words, the complete package.’ He added that he would like to encourage Byron’s chamber of commerce, Byron United, to ‘come and talk to TAC about their vision.’ President of Byron’s chamber of commerce group Byron United, Sevegne Newton, says she did not agree that collaboration was missing. She told The Echo that Northern Rivers Tourism are key financial partners in the Byron Naturally campaign. ‘We’ve worked very closely

with Russell Mills,’ she said. ‘As for TAC, my understanding is that people will be horrified with the branding name. ‘They’ve put nothing concrete forward. We’re actually on the ground doing something that makes a difference and I’m frustrated by their constant studies, plans and committee meetings. The time for talking is well past.’

BU: no more talking With regard to Cr Cameron’s desire for a roundtable consensus approach, she said that she would like him to explain why Byron United’s request for nomination to sit on TAC’s board was knocked back. ‘We weren’t invited to sit on that round table,’ she said. ‘Our issue was that I personally didn’t want to engage in another talkfest, another committee. I wanted to do something to make a difference.’ She added that state MP George Souris had complimented Byron United on the fact they had managed to achieve what they had. Leadership was what was needed, concluded Northern Rivers Tourism’s Mr Arnold. ‘I’d be prepared to step up to that role, but I’d do it in partnership with Council, the Visitors Centre and Byron United. ‘I’m definitely not a knight in shining armour however!’

Christopher Wright, who has now physically departed from this world, will remain an enduring source of inspiration for students, friends and family. His humour, wit and wisdom have helped many to a greater appreciation and love of life. Pancha Tanmantra, a martial art form with Buddhist, Chinese and Indonesian influences, was his passion. He began teaching in Melbourne in 1988 and in 1990 was empowered by his Balinese master Ratu A A Kumara Susila to teach meditation. In 1994 he brought the lineage to the Byron Shire. Chris’s perceptive, patient and nonjudgmental nature assisted many through ceremony and fasting as well as the clarity, wellbeing and wisdom that grew from his classes of Pancha and Qi Gung.Â

Dealing with the upper end of the property market in Byron, Belle has been involved in a number of multimilliondollar sales in recent times, including several with prices considered by some to be well

above market value at the time contracts were exchanged, and which later failed to settle. The accountants appointed to wind down the business have set up a special email address for landlords or tenants owed money by Belle: bellebyron@moorestephens.com.au. Asked about where the missing money may have gone, Moore Stephens’ Trent McMillan told The Echo there were conflicting stories about the deficiencies in the Belle trust funds.

Hard rubbish next month Circus kids camp-out Council’s annual kerbside clean-up has been announced to start Monday August 1. The free yearly kerbside collection is for bulky items that cannot be taken by Council’s weekly rubbish removal. It will be conducted in three stages over three weeks, and Council asks to note when the collection starts in your area. In previous years some resi-

dents put out rubbish too late for the trucks. Some items that should not be put out for collection include computers, TVs, paint, batteries, building materials and garden waste. For more, lookout for the Shire-wide letterbox drop or visit Council’s website www. byron.nsw.gov.au/kerbsidecleanup.

Mullum golf club break-in

Vandals strike OS tennis club

Thieves broke in to the pro shop of the Mullumbimby Golf Club on Thursday night. According to office manager Wendy Ward, they first forced their way into the greenkeeper’s shed and stole a mallet which was then used to smash the glass window at the front of the pro shop. ‘It appears that they were only after money and stole the notes from the till, leaving behind the coins,’ she told The Echo. She says the upstairs window on the balcony had also been jemmied open although nothing was taken from the bar area, possibly due to a visibly prominent alarm system. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact police.

The Ocean Shores Tennis Club has again been vandalised. The club’s Brian Seymour said tennis balls were stolen, which cost the club around $100. ‘It’s so frustrating; nearly all of us are pensioners, and every dollar counts.’ Mr Seymour claims despite the wire mesh around the courts, and securing the place ‘the best we could,’ entry was gained either Thursday, Friday or Saturday night last week. ‘There’s been a fair bit of trouble over the years, he says, ‘It seems to happen in the schools holidays.’ The matter has been reported, and anyone with knowledge of the stolen property is encouraged to contact police.

More surfing in order for long-serving doctor After 36 years of general practice in the Byron Shire, Dr Peter Roger has chosen to retire. Now 64, Dr Roger was born in Taree, trained in Sydney then did his postgraduate studies in Brisbane. He came to Byron Bay ‘for the surf and the job,’ he told The Echo. ‘They were both very attractive.’ One of the biggest changes, he said, was in the role of the GP. ‘Back then we delivered babies – being a GP was a very

challenging and all-encompassing job. GPs don’t do any of that any more; they rarely do operations.’ Another change for the worse is the number of people in Byron Bay. ‘The sad thing about that is the crowd in the surf!’ he said. ‘On the other hand tourism is the town’s lifeblood now, and the facilities are good. There’s everything here now – banks aren’t closing.’ For Dr Roger’s first ten years he was working 80 – 90 hours a week, with the bulk of patients

coming from Norco, the cattle abattoir and sand-mining industries. ‘We only had two doctors’, he said. ‘There were a lot of industry-related accidents. Now a quarter of our caseload is tourists.’ He said that without the support of his wife and family he could not have stuck it out. ‘And also the support of my colleagues and the gratitude that patients have shown.’ Dr Roger will keep his hand in with two days a week at the Bay Centre Medical Clinic

Over 200 promising young surfers competed in a rising swell at Lennox Beach over the weekend for the glory of the Rusty Gromfest trophy – the world’s first and most famous youth surfing contest. Saturday saw idyllic winter conditions; however, the groms dealt with a fickle swell that delivered occasional barrels and steep walls among lulls and close-outs. On Sunday groms coped brilliantly as the swell increased to two metres on the sets, calling for brave take-offs and providing spectacular surfing.

of surfing ‘becoming a mainstream commercially sustainable sport.’ Also granted was $2 million for a high-performance training centre at Casuarina Beach. Surfing has come a long way from its origins as a pastime for rebels and drop-outs, but is this commercialisation droppingin on surfing’s soul? Competition among other

sports and the stress it can place on children is well recognised. Contest director Max Perrot says, however, that there’s a growing understanding amongst parents and surfcoaches that pushing too hard, too early, seldom leads to good results. ‘Those who win here have a great career ahead of them, but for those who don’t win, surf-

ing still gives them something, It becomes a lifestyle.’ Max co-founded the contest in 1996, and is justifiably proud of the long list of champions hatched by Gromfest – Stephanie Gilmore, Sally Fitzgibbons, Mick Fanning and Owen Wright amongst them. As for the groms, it’s rare to see so many healthy, happy kids together in one place. In the brave new world of youth surfing, groms as young as 12 are surf-coached, fitnesstrained, sent around the world to compete, and taught to conclude every press interview with ‘I’d like to thank my sponsors‌’ There is no doubt that they love it, however. As under-16s Sunshine Coast surfer Harry Bryant said, ‘I like competing ’cos you get to surf against your mates, but you’re also surfing with your mates.’ As it should be. At the time of going to press the comp was still in progress; for full results see www.surfingaustralia.com.

A recent attempt to scam an experienced computer user will hopefully serve as a wake-up call to all computer/internet users. Lennox Head-based software developer Lyndsay Howarth told The Echo she has again received calls from the ‘Microsoft Technical Department’, who attempted to extract information to allow them to access her computer remotely. It is widely known access of this nature can potentially compromise your financial information, leading to cyber-robbery. ‘They say, “We’re from Microsoft, and we have messages saying that viruses are being spread by your computer, and we are here to sign you up for a support contract, and will fix this problem free.â€? Ms Howarth explained she played along with the scammer by phone to better understand

their methods. ‘They then walk you through the process of going to your Windows terminal and getting you to allow their IP (Internet Protocol) address [which gives] unrestricted access to everything on your computer. ‘I know those using Windows PCs who are over 60 might easily be conned by these guys. They are using rotary dialling from some call centre somewhere. ‘I also imagine that they could be on Australian soil as their English is less heavily accented than your average Telstra Indian, but it is still an Indian accent. These guys are slick and they must be stopped.’ Byron Bay-based IT security analyst Patrick Gray agrees this type of strategy by the scammers doesn’t involve asking for security or banking credentials. ‘They act like it’s a helpdesk

call and try to convince you there’s something’s wrong with your computer, then they’ll suggest a solution, like “run this software we’re sending you�. ‘The software, of course, will contain a virus that will steal banking credentials, credit card numbers, PayPal logins and other valuable information. ‘People should just be very, very suspicious of any unsolicited contact of this type. Microsoft never makes this sort of contact. I’m struggling to think of any legitimate organisation that would have reason to make such a call. Just hang up.’ The problem has been occurring across the state, according to the Minister for Fair Trading Anthony Roberts. In April, the Minister posted on Fair Trading’s website a warning of a computer scam that ripped off an elderly Illawarra couple. ‘These scammers have dis-

gracefully deceived the couple into authorising a $300 payment,’ he said. Mr Roberts added the scammers then tried unsucessfully to debit $25,000 from the couple’s bank account. The Australian Communications and Media Authority have issued specific public warnings on this matter at www.acma.gov.au. For more, visit www. scamwatch.gov.au.

Reggaefest by the beach

Reggaefest has announced dates, line-up and a new location for its forthcoming festival. The festival was previously held last year at the Byron Bay Brewery, however this year, it will be held a grassy banks of the Richmond River, in Ballina Shire, this September 17 and 18. ‘There will be two fields,’ says organiser Raz Harel. ‘One is a grassy amphitheatre where the main stages will be set up, and the other will have another stage providing tunes for the markets and workshops. Raz says the reason for this shift is a natural progression for a growing festival. ‘The location is world class, with the river and the ocean connecting it’s a powerful place with

spectacular views and sunsets. ‘Every time I go to the site, I just feel like relaxing on the grass and forgetting about everything else‌ I am sure that all the Reggaefest goers this year will feel the magic too.’ Raz says the site will enable festival goers to catch small waves, fish and swim within a stones’ throw of the main stage. The line-up announced so far includes international artists Nkulee Dube, daughter of the late Lucky Debe, Jah Mason as well as many local and national acts. Two-day early bird tickets are on sale now and ticket specials are also available for children and families. Visit www. reggaefest.com.au for more.

Donating ethically

From Abu Dhabi to Byron Bay: Victoria Cosford

A lesson in Indigenous art and a native food trail were just two of many Australian experiences for visiting Abu Dhabi students. The 31 teenagers are in Byron Bay for a month as part of their country’s international study program, and are studying English at the Byron Bay English Language School (BBELS). They are being hosted by local families which enables them to also learn about western culture, and share aspects of their own. BBELS teacher David Hanbidge told The Echo that it was a real challenge for them to learn English. ‘They write from right to left and they use totally different characters. So the actual written word is harder to master.’ He believed, however, that by staying with local families The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and Rainforest Rescue have both received cheques of $5000 each, thanks to the Santos Staff Charity Fund. The locally owned health food store’s staff contribute voluntarily from wages which is then matched annually by Santos. They say they chose to support these organisations because they are dedicated to safeguarding the biodiversity and survival for future generations.

Happiness is.......Brunswick Heads

Teenagers in town soak up Byron’s culture

Both Sea Shepherd’s Australian director Jeff Hansen and Rainforest Rescue’s CEO Kelvin Davies gave thanks for the generous donation. ‘Sea Shepherd’s international volunteer crew were fuelled by Santos organic rice,’ Mr Hansen said. ‘Sea Shepherd relies on its volunteers, and without supporters like Santos, we would simply not be able to defend the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary.’

they were gaining a ‘real immersion experience to learn the language.’ For many of the students this is the first time they had travelled away from home, although two of them told The Echo that they had previously visited Saudi Arabia. Mohamed Al Afreet said that Byron Bay was a very nice place, but the big difference was the cold weather. ‘Our country is very hot,’ he said. Abdullah Al Kaabi agreed that here ‘it’s so bitter, it’s so cold.’ Lucky the boys were sent to Byron Bay rather than Canberra. Byron Bay English Language School says it was chosen by the Abu Dhabi Education Council because it was considered the school could give the group a different Australian experience from cities such as Brisbane or the Gold Coast.

Myocum landfill now solar

One of the largest solar panel systems in Byron Shire has been launched, and according to Mayor Jan Barham, it aims to provide the equivalent of removing 20 cars off the road or planting 820 trees for carbon absorption each year. â€˜The free-standing system consists of 52 panels that will produce approximately 15,000 Photo Eve Jeffery kWh of green energy and

avoid 16,000kg of carbon dioxide emissions each year. ‘With an upfront investment of around $60,000, the payback period is six-and-ahalf years with expected savings to Council of $9,000 per annum.’ Installations of solar hot water systems across local community buildings are also planned by Council.

been overlooked for the largesse they have come to believe is theirs by right.

tion now is whether Gillard can get people to listen to her as she seeks to capitalise on them.

by Mungo MacCallum welfare recipients to rejoin the workforce. And the realistic admission that not everybody will be better off, that there will be losers as well as winners, gives the package an air of credibility lacking in some of the wilder promises that have been made in the past. Importantly the Greens did not get a lot of what they wanted, but they are now locked into supporting the plan, as are the necessary three independents. For once, the unlikely coalition Labor has brought together looks both solid and pragmatic. This alone should reassure many of the doubters. And the generous handouts to the steel industry mean that efforts to suggest that industry is unanimously against the plan will fail; the miners and some other sectors will continue to protest, but it will now be much easier to dismiss them as a rapacious minority. So the basics for the long campaign ahead are pretty much in place. The big ques-

down along party lines. Gillard will now have to bring it back to the centre, and having demonstrated that her scheme is not about to destroy the national economy and bankrupt both industries and families, the next step is to take a long, hard look at the alternative. It is all very well to portray Tony Abbott as Dr No, the snarling wrecker who is opposed to everything. But the fact is that Abbott has proposed an alternative direct action plan and unconditional tax cuts for all. Gillard and Swan now have the chance to compare and contrast the opposition leader’s fairy godmother approach with their own carefully detailed and costed proposals, and would be wise to go on the attack immediately. By forcing Abbott to defend his position, they can gain some clear air in which to sell their own. And in spite of the opinion polls Abbott is vulnerable. There is an increasing number of hard-heads in the Liberal

Party who understand that his present policy stance is untenable; no carbon tax, no mining tax, indeed tax cuts for business overall, but at the same time implanting an open-ended bonanza of handouts and grandiose schemes of which his direct action plan is simply the most obviously extravagant and wasteful. To blandly dismiss the obvious question of where the money’s coming from with an assertion that he’ll tell us later, but it can be found by making savings, just won’t wash now that Gillard has put her own cards on the table. At the very least we are entitled to demand a fuller explanation of his own proposals for tackling climate change and a clear statement about just where he stands on its importance. It’s too much to expect that Abbott will shut up, so he can be challenged to put up. And just perhaps that would be a first step towards a genuine debate on an issue which is now back where it belongs: front and centre.

nd we can’t let the week go by without at least a glance at the Evil Empire. Having worked there, I can assure readers that Rupert Murdoch keeps a pretty close eye on what is going on in his newspapers and he demands that his executives and editors do the same. Not only are they expected to get the scoops and outdo the opposition, they are to do so in accordance with a strict code of ethics and propriety. Yet somehow, over a period of years, a culture of organised crime developed in the News of the World, and absolutely no-one noticed. And if you believe that you’ll believe all the other stuff that appears in the Murdoch press.

Councillors stumble at legal hurdle The legal services committee, where a selection of councillors would look in detail at the progress of all court cases and therefore have a good chance to digest developments and do more research before finally making a considered decision, is no more. Councillors now rely solely on staff reports yet nevertheless purport to be able to make an on-the-spot decision based on what they’re told. It’s actually even worse than that; all of the legal matters I’ve seen alluded to in the agenda are under the present system inevitably delegated to the GM for him to ‘manage’, ie the councillors more or less wash their hands of it and rely thereafter on staff updates of inconsistent quality. The GM

can negotiate settlements or the terms of same, and is in a position to determine what arguments or evidence is put before the courts or is not put before them as well as to make various tactical decisions crucial to the final outcome. I have to say that this is the single most procedurally distasteful change that has taken place under Jan Barham; I regard it as a total copout. The public are invited to make submissions, the staff then make their assessments and reports, the council debates the matter and then – if the applicant appeals – it is all dumped in the hands of staff. This stumbling at the final hurdle borders on the unhinged when one considers that the elected council-

lors routinely reject or modify many staff recommendations and frequently reject the quality and balance of staff reports. Why not save everybody a lot of time and just give the GM the power to make all the decisions from the outset? (That’s already almost the case anyway in relation to planning applications. Under blanket delegation the staff already decide 95 per cent of DAs that are lodged without any input whatsoever from councillors. Councillors do have the power to ‘call in’ any DA they wish to vote on, but they rarely exercise it. Usually it is the staff who refer sensitive or controversial hot potatoes to the elected council.) By law any external lawyers are answerable to the elected

Council, not to the GM or the staff, who may have different interests, priorities or allegiances. By giving the GM the power to broadly ‘manage’ cases, you defeat the purpose of that legislation by making those lawyers directly answerable to the GM. It also makes it legitimate for the GM to use internal lawyers, ie lawyers who are on the permanent payroll and who are therefore already answerable directly to him, not to the councillors. The idea therefore that having a lawyer on the staff is necessarily a good thing is about as naive as the idea that an ‘internal ombudsman’ is a good thing.

Greens on the rise

issues hit home, mainstream voters will increasingly look to the Greens for progressive and pragmatic political solutions. In Germany, the Greens are currently overtaking the Social Democratic party as the major party of the progressive vote. While in the UK, Canada, New Zealand and much of Europe, the Greens are steadily increasing their political representation. Mungo also fails to distinguish that the Greens are fundamentally different from the Democrats who were a top-down, personality-driven party, not the broad-base, grassroots movement that the Greens constitute. While not a member of any political party, I recognise the long-term trend of a growing green constituency and challenge Mungo to look beyond the old-fashioned political nar-

ratives of capital versus labour that will not see us through the problems of the ensuing decades.

in its original position would it be a re-creation or a memory bought back to life of a small, diverse, rural community?

I typically enjoy Mungo’s insightful political commentary in The Echo. However, I believe he seriously has his finger off the pulse with his recent analysis that the Greens party are destined to remain a minority party. The Greens are shaping up to be the real social-democratic force in Australian politics and the natural opposition to conservatism, market-fundamentalism and wholesale ecological destruction. Over time, the Greens will systematically benefit from Labor’s lack of vision and proven ineptitude at representing progressive views on issues such as public transport, marriage equality, foreign war, climate change action and protecting farmland from coal seam gas mining. Yes, the political transformation will take time, but as resource depletion

Happy days

Wouldn’t it be great if someone recreated the Popular Café in Mullumbimby? Credit to the other cafés, but for a Happy Days nostalgic visit to another era of country living, you couldn’t beat the Popular. With its cheap meals, tofu chips and pinball machines, I saw ferals, farmers, families and friends. We could all afford to eat there. And I miss the Lenny Hend mural depicting our mountainous area so evocatively (including the guy on the dunny). I’m sure there is a parallel universe where the Popular still exists.

Biodiversity lost

Byron Shire is part of one of Australia’s biodiversity hotspots. Because most of our native vegetation has been cleared and most of what is left has been significantly degraded, we have 96 animal species, 59 plant species and 10 ecosystems threatened with extinction, with some teetering on the brink. We also have among the highest numbers of weeds of significant threat to native ecosystems in Australia, with 263 environmental weeds. The numbers of threatened species and weeds continue to grow. I was one of those who lobbied to get Council to adopt a biodiversity levy in April 2004. It increased our rates by two per cent specifically to fund continued overleaf

Lennox cafe awarded for excellence Four years of hard work have finally rewarded a Lennox Head cafe with a prestigious win. Blackboard at the Beach has won Best Cafe Restaurant in the upper north coast by the Restaurant & Catering Association. The awards for excellence were recently presented in Newcastle. Owner Ben Beesley told The Echo that he and wife Felisa ‘were so stoked it happened. It’s great to receive recognition for all the hard work and time we put into it, and we thank our chef and all our staff.’ Blackboard at the Beach has been finalist for other awards, including Best Breakfast in 2009 and 2010. Their latest one acknowledges excellence in both food and service.

Harvest Cafe tops for dining Harvest Cafe in Newrybar is one of four restaurants named ‘The region’s top places to dine’, at the Savour AustraliaTM Restaurant & Catering HOSTPLUS Awards. More than 200 restaurants and caterers whose businesses are located in the Northern Rivers region were acknowledged for excellence in food and service at the ceremony on July 4 in Newcastle.

Combustion re-brands national icon Combustion Advertising has been given the task of redesigning packaging for Rosella Foods other national brands The Curry Makers and Stromboli Pasta Sauces. The chuffed managing director Ean Jones says, ‘It’s not every day that a small regional advertising agency gets to rebrand one of only a few truly national ”Icon” brands. ‘Recent research has identified that Rosella sits firmly in our psyche as a brand of quality that holds close to its heart some pretty important Australian values. It is our task to reinforce those significant Australian brand values in a fresh and contemporary manner. We are extremely mindful of the inherent emotions tied up in brands such as Rosella and treat the consumer’s relationship with the history of the brand with the utmost respect.’

Edge Hairdressing wins regional comp Proud owner of The Edge Hairdressing, Tracey Parish, has announced a raft of wins at the 2011 IHS NSW Regional Hair competitions in Port Macquarie. She says her team won first and second place in Ladies Cutting and Ladies High Fashion Colour, Mens Catwalk (cut, colour and clothes), and third place in Men’s Cutting. ‘It was has been a massive two weeks leading up to the event,’ says Tracey. ‘We started work to finish our models at 4am and Sunday morning hired a mini bus and drove all the way to Port with outstanding results. Even though we live in a small town, we have a mighty punch when it comes to hair.’

Q To all the humans who whinge about the odd dog poo on the beach, think about this. All of your poo gets treated but some of it passes into the waterways and natural environment and when you’re swimming and wading at the beach remember that the salt liquid you’re in is full of a diluted soup of whale, squid, amoeba, krill, oyster, dolphin, prawn and birds-from-on-high shit. It’s part of the natural cycle on the planet. I believe that all animals have a right to health – food, exercise, and companionship for good mental health. So I reckon that you PC people should stop being so precious and disinfected, turn off your virtual reality world and accept real nature for what it is. Nature.

Q I

am very grateful to Ralph Johnston (Letters, July 5) for his prognostications on the behaviour of domestic dogs and sea turtles. There must be so many dogs who are not following ‘their instincts’ to chase birds and small marsupials, and now we have turtles who do not visit our beaches because they can smell marauding dogs on the shore! (No evidence.) He then jumps another fence by blaming domestic dogs for attacks on his chicken pen plus dogs barking 24 hours a day. I would be very pleased to read of his credibility and of

works identified in the Biodiversity Conservation Strategy. Its stated intent was to assist landholders by establishing an extension service to help them prepare management plans and obtain funding, providing them with management guidelines for threatened species and weeds, establishing bush regeneration teams to help them control weeds, and

his amazing research of dogs on New Brighton beach and especially the amazing smelling ability of turtles. It should be pointed out that only one in a thousand hatchlings survives and this is not related to domestic dogs. Without concrete evidence, like R Johnston, I believe that MAN is a much greater threat to turtles! I am not aware of dog walkers at night on the beach and yet that is when turtles come ashore to lay their eggs. The Sea Turtle Foundation states on their web page that there are two threats to sea turtles – natural and man. Denis O’Brien

Ocean Shores Q I refer to Ralph Johnston’s letter stating that the Companion Animal Act prevents him from having a rooster. Ralph, a chicken is not a Companion Animal under the act. If it was you would have to have it microchipped and registered. My chickens perform their egg laying efficiently without a rooster. If you want fertile eggs, I believe you can get them at the Mullum farmers markets, put them under a broody chook, and Bob’s your uncle. For people interested in best practice backyard chook husbandry, the Byron Shire Council Local Orders for the keeping of animals has all the local regulations. It states that ‘Roosters should not be kept where crowing will cause offensive noise’. It appears to be in the ear of the beholder,

by improving vegetation and wildlife corridor mapping. I then complained as Council failed to properly implement the levy and directed works onto its own lands. Then in 2008 councillors renamed it as an Environmental Levy so they could use it to fund other things, such as their agricultural strategy. Now our councillors have taken the remaining biodiver-

so Ralph, you can have your rooster, just clear it with your neighbours. I am not constantly on guard for my chickens because I have a secure pen for them with tin dug in to the ground to prevent foxes digging in. I have a wire roof because the currawongs stole three week-old chicks from one of my girls. The only remaining threat to my girls is a rather large carpet python who has done for a couple of chooks in the past, but I don’t begrudge that. I agree with Ralph that seeing irresponsible people taking their dogs into prohibited areas makes any reasonable person see red; however there is no need to exaggerate the facts. If you had constantly seen dogs chasing wildlife there would be none left. The turtles are under more threat from floating plastic than they are from dogs. According to WIRES wildlife rescue, 34,000 native animals are killed on Australian roads every day. Now that’s a very sorry fact. Jill Ball

Brunswick Heads Q I am writing to express my disappointment and indignation at Byron Shire Council’s proposal to cut the already restricted dog walking stretch of New Brighton Beach by more than fifty per cent.

Tourism shame

I am a frequent visitor to Byron and have been for a number of years. Apart from the atro-

companions. Waterlily Park was the exception until it was recently declared a ‘no dog’ zone. Our hilly terrain makes long walks along the roads challenging for the aged and impossible for the physically impaired, many of whom have companion dogs. Even the able bodied take their lives in their hands because of the deplorable lack of footpaths. I appreciate the environmental concerns of Council and the NPWS, as do the other dog owners who use this beach. We take great care not to allow our pets to chase shorebirds or stray into the dunes and are scrupulous about picking up their droppings. It is a few selfish individuals allowing their animals (and children) free rein that are the real threat to shorebirds and dunes. Rather than punish us and our dogs, perhaps NPWS and Council rangers could better protect the environment by more diligently dealing with those few who already flaunt the current bylaws and are likely to pay scant regard to the proposed amendment. As residents of Ocean Shores, we already suffer from a lack of civic amenities compared to communities in other parts of the Shire. This proposed beach restriction represents yet another blow to our large and growing population of ratepayers and voters and I strongly urge Council to reconsider. Jonathan Clemens

Is there a place for slow fishing on our coast? Mary Gardner

At sunset in Byron, people gather at Main Beach to watch the day fade and the night gather. The mountains darken and become a skyline silhouetted against the colour of the sun. The sea takes on the colours of the inside of paua shells (an abalone species). The lighthouse beacon starts, making a complete circuit of the horizons every fifteen seconds. A group of musicians play hand drums and a solo guitar or trumpet adds a voice to the rhythms. A few weeks ago, I watched a man who sat on the rocks with a fishing line. The tide was quite high and he cast his line down into the swirling water. There can be fish there. Sometimes I see mullet and whiting through the glassy waves that break on that beach. But tonight, the fisherman played the line for only a few moments before it snagged. He pulled. The line broke, leaving the sinker, hook and extra line wedged somewhere in the rocks. He tried again, only to snag and lose his gear once more. He packed up and left. A few evenings ago, I was there again, to the right of the same rocks. I watched Silver Sea Gulls (Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae) on the shore. Three of them were dunking a good level of facilities for its visitors. I was appalled last week to find toilets locked in daylight, no mirrors in toilet, rusting BBQ plates, and a barrage of people confused about where to even go to the toilet once facilities were closed. It doesn’t take much to realise someone is holding out on spending some cash. You can’t keep saying it’s not our problem and if we turn a blind eye the tourists will go away. Would anyone in Byron really want that? Look at the impact losing Splendour is having. Also what about the road maintenance? Is it true that a council made up of Alternatives cannot find an

ring their equipment made of plant material. They forbade motor engines on canoes and other craft. They rejected the use of explosives on reefs. They even forbade using batterypowered flashlights for night spearfishing. Use of large nets is a community event managed by elders. Could there still be, in 2011, places where the art of fishing is still proudly managed using local materials and methods? Would we, in our own places, shift ourselves and become ‘retro style’ fishers? Are there different plant materials we could learn to use as lines and

nets which are safely biodegradable? Is there a suite of old-style ‘slow’ fishing methods we could use – much like the ‘slow’ food movement makes us appreciate again growing and cooking food, could we learn again a more modest way to fish? Moments of the ingenious past and the deliberately chosen future could very well be held together with lines and nets made from plant materials.

Reality bites in the Mullum sphere of shopping influence Woolworths Mullumbimby wants us to be fat and stupid! Let me explain this provocative and simplified statement. My wife is tutoring a number of Mullum high school kids in the afternoons. A couple of her students expressed their disappointment that they applied for a casual job at the local Mullumbimby store and weren’t considered. These teenagers are smart and keen, but they didn’t make it to an interview because the local Woolworths policy is to employ school kids for hours after school only if they are available seven days a week without any restrictions – which of course rules out every student who wants to attend some afterschool activities like sports, theatre groups, or tutoring. This Woolworths policy basically eliminates every will-

Sharpe and the other ‘wags’ who broke out laughing while shopping at Woolies (Letters, July 5) are in store for a few more laughs soon. They may have a bit of a giggle when they hear of local businesses whose already slim profit margins will decrease to the point that their businesses are no longer viable. They may be in stitches further down the track when they see these same businesses close, shops empty and boarded up.

And if John and the other wags want a proper debate with ‘eco warrior, latte sippers and robe wearers’, maybe they should familiarise themselves with the concepts of a 70 per cent grocery duopoly unique to Australia, greenfields acquisition, predatory pricing and farmers getting as little as five per cent of the price we pay for fruit and vegies at Woolies and Coles.

General rates have not been often below the level of inflation. Rate capping is deemed by the CPI or rate of inflation. 2. The outstanding reasons why councils go backwards is their failure to collect enough fees from developers as well as their penchant for spending money on non-essentials, especially new big-ticket items,

Usually in the same complex as a Tesco store other corporate food giants are peddling their wares, the consumers of which can be seen waddling down the street towards the doctor’s surgery.

It wants us to not care much. In fact it depends upon us being miserable and ignorant. Happy people don’t shop so much. A contented soul is not needy or willing to follow the greedy herd down that soulless ‘Economic Boulevard’ that destroys all that is precious and human, leaving us in the darkness of a world in which we are strangers, a place no human heart can call home.

Example 2: I needed a particular tool (basically a razor blade on an angle) and some special tape. I was quoted $84 for said blade and $80 for a 5m roll of tape (must be made of gold)! No sale. Shopkeepers should know about an amazing thing called the internet and the telephone.

Articles

Last word on the anti-humanist agenda I am well aware that multiple correspondence on the same subject can be boring to readers, so before the editor of this august organ reaches for the delete key this is my fourth and final contribution on the subject. The reason for my previous correspondence was to bring the community’s attention to the benefits scientific advances such as genetic modification of food and generation of electricity by nuclear energy can bring to us and in particular people of undeveloped countries. The local green and socialist left inhabitants of Mullumworld and environs surprised no-one when their responses involved name calling and an absolute lack of compassion for those millions of people suffering elsewhere in the world. Indeed the statement from Garry Johns (federal minister in past

Labor governments) holds true in that ‘The Greens wish to lock up our resources forever. Coal, gas, and every mineral that requires liquid fuels to power its extraction, which for the foreseeable future is all of them, will cease to be available to the poor humanity of the world.’ Indeed the Greens wish there were fewer people. Wal Dyer who brought people’s attention to the possibility of nuclear energy alleviating the quarter of a million Indian children between one and five years old who die from cooking smoke each year was described as living in a ‘narrow belief bubble concocted and sustained by regressive money machines busily dragging our ecosystem towards oblivion’ (whew!) by correspondent Sapoty Brook. For my part I was described as ‘an empty vessel making the

most sound’ by correspondent John Scrivener. (Oh dear, somebody came up with an idea contrary to their own!) But let’s turn our attention to correspondent Brook who has regaled us with his status as a ‘scientist’ with a background in physics and electrical engineering (whatever that means). Those among us who have had dealings with the professions and academia know well that intelligence plus education does not equate to common sense. Also passing of exams in physics and nuclear energy does not a scientist make. The Australian people are making up their minds on these issues, taking into account input from the scientific community but also bearing in mind the lack of objectivity among the ‘thousands of colleagues’ who stand shoulder to shoulder with our Mullum-

bimby scientific community. My final contribution to this debate is to request the following from Sapoty Brook. Kindly provide scientific references substantiating the following statements. 1. The ‘countless children already being born malformed or aborted as a result of past nuclear indiscretions’. (I am assuming that the exploding of atomic weapons over Japan to bring World War II to an end is not a nuclear indiscretion.) 2. ‘PV Solar is now cheaper than gas or coal-fired power in the USA.’ (No demonstration plant examples but full-scale plants currently operating.) No rabid website or blog references, please, but references to academic journals and web sites as Mr Brook would no doubt be familiar.

metres of welcome cycleways – very encouraging. Will every owner of a bicycle give thought to purchasing and using a helmet and vest (cost little more than $30) and spend a few minutes studying the common road rules? One day, you never know, a nasty policeman may come to town and enforce the rules,picking up thousands of dollars in fines. Although it might seem minor, a helmet and vest might even save a life.

Finally, with global warming the flavour of the month, an adult seen riding a bicycle probably indicates a car sitting at home in the garage. I would call this a bonus.

that country. And what did we hear from that same group of caring sharing Australians (or anyone here for that matter)? Not a f...king peep! But then I suppose that those Tamils were mere people (foreign too), and not sacred Australian cows. It makes me wonder where those protesters’ hearts really are, or even if they actually have hearts at all.

DOGS MAKE THE BEST MATES

ED 1 yr old Ed is a typical Labrador with a fun outlook on life and a love of play. He is a great big affectionate boy who loves a cuddle and to learn with a treat for reward. He’s fine with cats, loves other energetic dogs and would be a great companion for an avid walker or beach runner. The world is an exciting place for Ed to explore and he could be renamed Happy. His wonderful outlook on life is infectious and Ed cannot think badly of anyone. If you need a positive mate, Ed’s the boy for you. EDIE is Ed’s girlfriend at the moment. Both dogs are in foster care together and have a great time entertaining each other. Edie is a real sweet heart. Just a good, good girl with a wonderfully lovable demeanour. She gets on well with all the dogs, adores human company, is great with kids and for such a young dog (6mths) – very well behaved. Foster carers save lives – enquire about our foster carer’s scheme today. You’ll get the pleasure of a dogs company, without the permanency. CAWI Opportunity Shop

Poems as candles for The Echo’s 25th birthday

In the runup to our 25th anniversary we asked readers for poems about Byron Shire. Here is a selection…

She is calling Autumn’s song and I breathe an ancient moment in the sun. Jani Collins

The Road the road to the country’s most easterly location is surely broke but there ain’t no bloke to blame, ten blokes with hammers and nails even some beavers with bushy tails could fix it in a week while playing a game, but the council has a game all of its own. Anon

A Byron Poem: Autumn This morning is a blue prayer above the roaring ocean. At windy ridge, I sing as little wrens feast on spiders and the stones tumble down the mountainside.

fairy jesters trance plant kings and queens

This blue morning, so cool, calm, content and the rapid, shrill chatter, slower mewing call of my beloved Collared Sparrowhawk has returned on the wind flat-winged glide, soaring.

universing dimensions seen and unseen

Over soggy green grasses, dark wet marshes

Into one dancing transcendental riff raff

I walk this beach and gather treasure between the dune and the wet line of tide amid the flotsam the soughtfor the seeker finds on this margin delicate this crystal strip of silica beyond measure its glassy grains adrift in the wash of surf and swell I read again this sutra in shifting sand reflect upon its lesson of letting go I walk this beach Robert Gibson

Huonbrook, when the drought breaks Sluiced creek beds. Quickened pulse. My own blood, a roiling current. I lower myself into a forest grotto balance on slippery rock bathed in perpetual sound after months of dusty silence. White-gold spume swirls in long dreamy descent. Palm trees and sky ripple the dark pool. Easing into fallen clouds, my parched trance dissolves. Laura Jan Shore

The spell Up in the dark hours when the ravens have folded their wings to make the night sky and the air is ready for anamachara,

where angels and friends meet and witches work their magic. In the sky you find the pentacle points of stars and draw with your eyes the lines between; a space and a time distant, like so many spaces and times before, a wizard takes his wand held secret in a painting by his sainted brother and draws a circle of power where none but the invited may stand. But you know your way inside the circle through the hidden chambers of the heart, you are always welcome and your meeting recalls an ancient merlyn and an ever-youthful queen

Breakwater, Brunswick Heads It’s an act of defiance this giant finger pointing to the horizon splitting the sea with knuckles of stone and nonchalant gravel path. Perched at the far end I adore the shiver-thought that one day a wave may come big enough to break the breakwater. Bev Sweeney

AFGHANS BUILD OPEN-SOURCE INTERNET FROM TRASH In light of events that occured in the Middle East earlier this year, many worry that in the future, rogue governments could cut off access to the internet as a way to control political ‘threats’. Douglas Rushkoff has championed the idea that the current corporatecontrolled internet is far from the open commons we pretend it is.

of good sized trees. With FabFi, communities can build their own wireless networks to gain highspeed internet connectivity – thus enabling them to access online educational, medical, and other resources. In FabLabs, technology brings people and ideas together. FabFi embraces this same principle. The public hospital, which houses the endpoint of FabFi Afghanistan’s longest link, has become a shared community resource, providing downlinks to a growing number of locations in the city centre.

The shared infrastructure facilitates communication between FabFi users all over the city as they collaboratively grow and maintain the network. The FabFi ‘If we have a dream of how social media could restore peer-to-peer commerce, user group is learning valuable skills that will soon allow them to generate culture, and government, and if the current Internet is too tightly controlled to revenue for themselves and the Lab by building, installing and maintaining allow for it, why not build the kind of network and mechanisms to realize it?’ FabFi links as part of a ‘FabFi Club’ at the FabLab.

about that, my wife says I need a business coach’. It went from there. Jeff was frustrated in his business. He had a busy accountancy practice with 350,000 of turnover and more than 300 clients. But profit was only 60,000 (Jeff’s personal income), the business had 300,000 in aged debt and almost 80,000 of the revenue was trade – that is money you can’t spend on important stuff like mortgages and petrol. Jeff was feeling the pressure, working very hard, and wanted out. The vision Jeff and Robyn (his wife) came up with for the business was ‘Sell for 750,000 in Dec 09’ – and escape up the coast. We worked hard on the discipline of chasing debtors (and still do); we increased Jeff’s prices (to squeals of protest from Jeff but none from his customers); we started Jeff actively marketing (not something he felt comfortable with, I can tell you); we worked on Jeff – on stopping him being such a pushover for some people, on his confidence in his (very strong) abilities in accounting (and gutter technology, as he puts it), on his time management and prioritisation. Within a year, profit was up to 100,000, Jeff was less stressed. We received and they rejected an offer to buy the practice (because they were enjoying it again). As of June 2011, revenue was 860,000, profit 300,000, Jeff is confident, engaged and a business leader in his local community. Sometimes he likes to credit me with this but I think we know that 90 per cent of it was down to him. The coach is just the catalyst. Have fun in your business.

When dealing with insurance policies, the home, car, boat or caravan is often the highest priority for many people. We put insurance in place to cover large capital losses under certain unfortunate events, yet most people either forget or choose to ignore possibly the largest financial concern in life – their ability to earn income to pay bills like home or car insurance and your mortgage or rent. You are number one, not your car, home or boat. My father would say that there are three guarantees in life... Death, Tax and Change. No-one can guarantee that you won’t pay any tax during your life or afterwards for that matter, but we can insure against severe financial impacts on both yourself and your families in the event of death and change. It can be very affordable and often tax deductible, but why do many of us neglect it? It’s a strange dilemma. We are happy to pay 500/yr to insure a car that may pay you a total of 15,000 if it is stolen or written off by an insurance company, yet that same 500 may pay an insurance premium that pays you 75 per cent of your income, every month, increasing with inflation every year, until you are back on your feet or turn 65 years old. The total payments could add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. The next biggest issue is life insurance. I have seen the heartache first hand of losing loved ones. The emotional turmoil is bad enough without the unnecessary financial burdens that can be placed on families as a result of having no life insurance when debts, kids and ongoing income needs are involved.

I’m guessing it’s been a while. The current narrow view that money is the only measure of value has eroded political and public support for business. It’s hard to feel good about companies that make money while damaging people’s health or impacting negatively on their wellbeing. And no one wants to work for companies like that.

Importers and exporters, save money on your transfers We live on a big island, which means everything going in or out must be paid for in currencies that are not our own. We know the retail crisis vs online boom, mixed with the Aussie dollar highs and global financial woes, has meant ‘the bottom line’ has been shifting wildly lately. If you’re in import or export you’ve felt this. Your margins have increased (or decreased) as the dollar has maxed out at 1.10c. How can you benefit even more, or damage-control further? Question your IMT provider now. Focusing on ‘fees’ for International Money Transfers is disingenuous. The real issue is the rate. For example, if you’re an importer regularly settling with a US provider for US200,000 and your provider quotes (at time of writing) 1.0474 with a fee of 30 you may think ‘that’s the way it is’. You may have been doing business with your current provider for a long time, and are just happy that the Aussie is ‘in your favour’. But there are options, if you can be bothered to look. Similarly to Aussie Home Loans and building societies saving you money and time off a mortgage, there are foreign exchange specialists for you also. On the same day you would pay AU190,979.01 for your US200k, there’s a local option for AU188,146.75. Is 1.5 per cent worth it every week, month or year? How long does it take you to make 2832.26? As with all FX transactions you must ‘compare apples’. When buying a car you don’t compare price on different models so, when you’re ready to trade, call your supplier for a quote then another within a two-minute window and you’ll clearly see the savings available.

Skeletons in the closet! What do you think the biggest issue superannuation fund members (that’s you and me) vent when complaining to the super regulator APRA? Investment returns?... Fees?... The hassle involved with paperwork, certifying ID with a local JP and more forms, forms, forms when trying to roll funds over? What about call centres and the long waits or incomprehensible staff when finally getting through? The answer is... complaints about payment of your super benefits! Let me elaborate. When you come to the end of the line in life your super benefits are paid to your nominated beneficiary, a loved one generally. The problem is, many of us have nominated an ‘invalid’ beneficiary! A superfund can only pay benefits to someone who is financially dependent on you. Mum and dad don’t normally qualify as being dependent on you for cash (it’s usually the other way around). Same generally goes for brothers, sisters or even girlfriends/ boyfriends for example. That leaves the trustee of the super fund with a small quandary. You have nominated someone, but it’s invalid. The trustee must now make investigations as to who may have a right to your money. The call goes out (usually in a local paper), to anyone who cares to make a claim for a share of your super benefits. Ex-wives/ husbands, boyfriends/girlfriends, business partners, brothers/sisters. Unfortunately when money is the subject, skeletons start to appear from the strangest places and things can get weird! Proof of such a right to claim must be provided, but at the end of the process, long after it begins and much to the heartache of your patient loved ones, the trustee may rule that some of your cash goes to one of the skeletons... which may cause yours to roll in the grave! That is the biggest complaint against a super fund – death benefit payment delays and rulings. So if your skeleton is the only one you want your executor and loved ones to deal with, call our anti-skeleton hotline today.

the way. The holistic principle of the balanced life is the focus of her book. It is divided into the four seasons, so that hunting up what to eat is easy and raises the question, ‘Why eat seasonally?’ Janella answers this for us in the first few pages. We are part of the living world and thus subject to seasonal change ourselves. This principle of a seasonal physical cycle is laid

out very simply at the beginning of each section and within each section she refers to our smaller daily cycle of breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The larger and the smaller cycles, the microcosm and the macrocosm. Apart from the undoubted health benefits of eating in harmony with our wider larger environment, there are other benefits. Seasonal produce is more abundant in its season,

tastes better and is cheaper too. The focus for the four seasons is outlined at the beginning of each section. Winter is for warmth and comfort and spending more time in bed to pamper the sensitive organs. Emotional and physical aspects and things to watch out for each season are noted and the seasonal foods and methods of cooking them to enhance optimum benefit are detailed. Even the flavours of foods eaten during a particular season are significant, as is what to avoid. These sections make for interesting reading and also make a great deal of sense, particularly as here in the Northern Rivers we are well placed to embrace this way of eating with our easy access to cheap, organic, seasonal foods at our many farmers markets. All this information could have been delivered in a dauntingly instructive tone but it is presented in an easy, simple and flowing style. Janella creates a keenness to try a trip down this culinary road. The tone is practical rather than preaching, as she will use canned and frozen produce and other conveniences that allow us home cooks to breathe a sigh of relief and turn to our pantry cupboards again. Although red and white meats are absent, fish and shellfish are represented and should you be

vegetarian or vegan, guidance is given with the recipes. Ultimately, the success of a cookbook comes down to the recipes and Purcell’s are excellent. You can whip up a gorgeous rich cocoa and walnut cake for a warm winter pudding or just a lovely indulgence, make your own bliss balls, tart up mum’s rice pudding or treat your nearest and dearest to salt and pepper silken tofu which is not only gluten free but is also vegan friendly and tastes great. And that’s only winter; there are another three seasons all treated with the same verve and imagination. It’s a great recipe book and a wonderful resource for those of us who may wish to embrace a healthier lifestyle without sacrificing taste for virtue. It has a particular resonance with the young but also with our inner youthfulness. The recipes are lovely, easy to follow and often quite stylish, the ethos clear and sensible. It has something to offer us all. I was going to give my copy to my daughter but I think I just may need to buy her one of her own – I need Janella in my kitchen. Q Janella Purcell will be attend-

James Redfield headlines the In Search of Soul program at Writers’ Festival James Redfield, author of the global phenomenon The Celestine Series, will headline the new ‘In Search of Soul’ program at the Byron Bay Writers’ Festival being held August 5–7. Festival Director Candida Baker formulated the ‘In Search of Soul’ series to explore the spiritual and philosophical state of the world. ‘When I

developed the Festival’s theme Feel the Passion I felt it was important to include a special program of sessions exploring spirituality,’ says Baker. ‘James Redfield, with his blockbuster book The Celestine Prophecy, propelled new-age thinking onto the global stage in the mid-90s and I believe he will be a fascinating commentator

on spirituality and the role it plays in today’s society.’ When author and therapist James Redfield self-published his first novel in 1993, the immediate groundswell of enthusiasm from booksellers and readers made The Celestine Prophecy one of the most successful self-published books of all time. According to Publishing Trends, in 1995 and 1996 The Celestine Prophecy was the #1 American book in the world, and the #1 international bestseller of 1996 (#2 in 1995). The book spent 165 weeks on the New York Times Bestseller list and was translated into 34 languages. Redfield’s fourth and final book in the Celestine series, The Twelfth Insight: The Hour of Decision, was published by Grand Central Publishing (formerly Warner books) in February. Baker believes The Celestine Prophecies – In Conversation with James Redfield event being held at the Byron Bay community centre will be a sellout. ‘Bestselling Australian science fiction and fantasy author, Traci Harding will explore with Redfield the Celestine phenomenon and the impact it has had around the world,’ says Baker. ‘Redfield will also discuss his latest book The Twelfth Insight which deals with putting spiri-

tual knowledge into practice.’ The Festival offers visitors many opportunities to delve into spirituality in its many forms. ‘I think one of the most fascinating sessions is Animals as healers and totems in literature,’ says Baker. ‘Kim Falconer (Encryption Series), Scott Alexander-King (Animal Dreaming) and Helen Brown (Cleo) will explore this intriguing topic with Barry Eaton (Afterlife – Uncovering The Secrets of Life After Death),’ Baker says. Baker predicts another ses-

sion bound to attract significant attention is Gods, diseases, tribes and seeking the sacred: ‘The session features David Tacey (Gods and diseases: making sense of our physical and mental wellbeing), Mike McRae (Tribal science – brains, beliefs and bad ideas) and Stephanie Dowrick (Seeking the sacred: transforming our view of ourselves and one another) and will no doubt generate lively and animated debate.’ Other ‘In search of Soul’ sessions include The Celestine

Prophecy – James Redfield in conversation with Maggie Hamilton; The transformational power of trauma with Helen Brown, Bill Leak and Paul Cox; The science of energy in words with universal medicine creator Serge Benhavon; The divine feminine and selftransformation with Stephanie Dowrick, Jane Meredith and Gillian Ross; and Deliberate Creation – Bringing a Book to Life with Stephanie Dowrick, Traci Harding and James Redfield. With tickets selling fast, Baker encourages believers now is the time to buy a ticket. ‘If people are thinking about coming to the Festival, I advise them to visit the office or the website now,’ Baker says. ‘The Feel the Passion Festival, with its strong mix of local and international talent, its focus on words from a diverse range of media including music, art, sculpture and drama and the fantastic Youth Day packed with some of Australia’s and the world’s best up and coming talent, is proving a tantalising mix of entertainment.’ To purchase tickets to The Celestine Prophecies – In Conversation with James Redfield (Saturday August 6, 7pm, $40) or other Festival events visit www.byronbaywritersfestival. com.au or call 1300 368 552. www.echo.net.au

woman of the year me. But I remember on the first night he stood side of stage watching my set, and when I came off he said ‘That was beautiful, Darlin’. You have a beautiful way about you,’ or something along those lines, and I fainted. Well, not externally, just internally. A 76-year-old man made me faint? I’m not the only one, I can tell you. What got you collaborating with Lanie Lane? Because I think she’s phenomenal – you wait, you’ll see (if you haven’t already)! I just got really lucky with her – I had a few weeks of sitting with artists I loved, like Gotye and Missy Higgins and Lisa Mitchell, just seeing what it felt like to write with other people. I heard one of Lanie’s songs and got really excited, called her up, we sat down together, and wrote a song in about 10 minutes. She really inspires me and it’s been really wonderful having her on the road with me.

What do you get from collaborating with other artists? Does it help you rethink your own work? I think you get a fright, actually. It’s really good to feel uncomfortable sometimes – in a creative sense. It makes you rethink the way you do things, and it pushes you beyond where you might go on your own. It’s kind of like a dream where you’re in a house, and you’ve lived in there all of your life, and then a friend comes over and you sit down and she says ‘I’ve been here before’ and opens a secret trapdoor in the wall that leads to a whole new part of the house that you never knew existed, and at first it’s a bit scary but they put on a fire and you start feeling a new feeling you’ve never felt before. Songs are just new feelings or old ones in new clothing. Geezus, I really hope that made sense to somebody because now I’ve said too much and my head hurts.

Last year you were crowned Rolling Stone magazine’s Woman of the Year. What does this mean? Have you had any woman-of-the-year responsibilities? (Like do you have to tidy up after your own gigs?) The Rolling Stone award was given based on a perceived Contribution to Australian Culture. What does it mean? It means that when I want a cup of tea, I better bloody well get one, and QUICKLY. I can’t THINK without my cup of tea! I must THINK! I must CONTRIBUTE to CULTURE! Are these kind of awards patronising? Is there a man of the year? I don’t find peer-voted awards patronising in the slightest! Quite the opposite: it means that someone took the time to notice you. What’s patronising about that? It’s kind of like Fathers Day: at best, awards are there to celebrate the things that someone does and would do every day, with or without the award. The Man of the Year was Andrew Michod, Director of Animal Kingdom. What was it like opening for Leonard Cohen? Did you spend hours poring over your set list? I spent hours poring over his set list, actually. My set was only 20–25 minutes; his went for three hours. What was it like? My month touring with Leonard, watching him perform, discussing the meaning of life, flying in his jet with his incredible band: it was and remains one of the single most extraordinary experiences that my muse and I have ever been on. Truly. Did Mr C like your music? What feedback did he give you about your songwriting? He picked me to support him, which is really more than enough for

We are in for group singing with the audience I believe. What does this entail? What is it about the Winter Secrets Tour that sets it apart? What you are in for is an incredible night amongst friends, which will never be repeated. It entails no preparation and only an open attitude on the night. Nothing will be forced upon you: you come as you are, and give as much as you want to give. Just come and be reminded of the joy of doing something you forgot you enjoyed. It is a true one-off show, a little like the last Winter Secrets tour in 2008, only warmer and with more of you guys in it. There is also a ‘question’ section, and my cousin Lady Bowdo will be making an appearance, and all sorts of things. I am coming back to Bangalow because they always treat you like you’re the Queen: the audiences there have been so kind with me over the past three years and I had to come back one more time. What should we expect for our Bangalow show? It will be a night of beautiful songs, both mine and Lanie’s and songs from famous people that we love, and then a whole lot of fun and games, some special guests, such as yourselves, some ‘Creative Question Time’, and then some more songs, and some Chai and coffee and I do hope they make that delicious curry again and also some cake; I would like some cake, although I don’t eat much sugar on the road so maybe I’ll just have some more extra pappadums and… anyway, expect a wonderful time, as I do.

Tell me a little about recording Now You’re Home. It was wonderful, recording the whole EP was wonderful and quick, and different. I’ll tell you why. Modern Day Addiction was a big album, full of big-sounding sounds and ideas. In between that album and the next one, I wanted to create something lovely and beautiful and gentle: that is what Are You Ready Yet, the EP, is about (that’s the EP that Now You’re Home is on). So we recorded some of the acapella tracks in the top room of a big old convent in Melbourne, and a whole lot of it in a friend’s orange-coloured studio; you can see it all on ‘making of’ style film-clip that is on my website.

JoJo Smith & the Brothers of Love

CHEAP TRICKS There is no such thing as a free lunch. Everything has a cost. Just ask Tiger Airways who managed to offer discount flights by compromising on pilot training and aircraft maintenance. While a flight to Sydney may have been as low as $33, the reality is that it could have cost your life. I don’t know about you but I'd rather kick in an extra $100 and actually arrive. Karl Marx got it right back in 1867 when he published the first volume of his masterwork Das Kapital, an analysis of the exploitation of the workers by capitalism where he predicted the illogical growth imperative of capital. That is, without continual growth in production and consumption, capitalism will not survive. Clearly arch capitalist Dick Smith was right when he proposed his recent thesis, that without a complete re-think of our economic system we are destined for an environmental Armageddon. Sadly Dick was shot down by politicians and economists who proved themselves to be bigger dicks than even Mr Smith. We are consumers who’ve been conditioned to use our wallets as intellectual rationale. Cheap is good. No matter what the cost. What they never tell us is that in order for things to be cheap, there is always a social and economic consequence. The human cost. Or is it that we don't actually want to know? Every time you slip into a pair of $20 K-mart track pants, or a Supre skirt, or even a new pair of Nikes, chances are your budget product has been created by third world adults or children in sweat shops. In this equation, cheap labour supplied by manufacture is reliant on a system that perpetuates and supports dire poverty. It certainly makes those new jeans chafe. Thank god for the creed of individualism which allows us to bury any noble ethics about injustice and inequity. Surely globalisation has relieved us of the humanitarian duty to relieve the suffering of our fellow human beings? After all, we have shopping to do. The system in which we live perpetuates a sense of alienation and disconnection. For instance when I am shopping at Woolies or Coles and I reach for a litre of store brand milk, I don’t notice that to reach my de-regulated cow juice that I’m actually standing on the body of a dead farmer. So what if dairy farmers have been sent bankrupt, that some have suicided in absolute desperation, I’m saving $1.50. The only reason anything is cheaper than it should be is that someone is getting ripped off. Generally it’s not the multinational, or the shareholders. It's the supplier, the manufacturer... the producer. Marx noted that when it comes to supply there is a formula. Capital equals materials plus wage labour. The cost of materials is generally a constant; the only part of that equation that can be manipulated or compromised is the wage/labour. Right now everyone has to have an iPad. It’s the latest portal into the future. The contract for iPad construction has gone to Foxconn in China. This company continues to blatantly ignore human rights while making record profits to give us yet another gadget which ironically academics will eventually use in their classrooms to discuss ethics, human rights and law.

Much-loved Lady of Soul JoJo Smith & The Brothers Of Love play the Court House Hotel on Saturday. Expect groove and soul, some freshly penned tunes and of course some old faves. JoJo Smith singer/songwriter/percussionist, is one of Australia’s best female vocalists. Her voice has been described as ‘a potent tool’ that she uses with exquisite skill and control to convey the full range of human emotions and musical styles. JoJo takes to the stage with a magnetic force; she is a musician with a love for giving something of herself to the audience. Known as the ‘Mistress of Groove’, JoJo fronts her own all-star band in quality venues around Australia and captivates audiences with her awesome voice and stage presence. Pete Best from the Herald Sun reviewed her album Live at the Blue Birdy and declared: ‘It was radio great Billy Pinnell who first put me onto JoJo Smith’s music. He described a natural, enchanting voice that easily mastered Pop, Latin, Jazz, Gospel and the undescribed genres in between. Billy was right, and all the evidence is here on Blue Birdy, named after the Byron Bay venue in which it was recorded. Billy hadn’t yet mentioned Smith’s wry songwriting, which dominates this collection. There really is a Leonard Cohen feel to it, and she covers his clever Hallelujah here. Billy might like it. Cohen certainly would.

In recent times this factory has recorded 18 suicides. So in every cheap iPad there’s the story of a worker who couldn't feed his family. The same goes for iPhones. If they were produced in Australia with proper conditions they wouldn't cost $500 per unit, but somewhere around $14,000. I’m just as guilty as the next person. I have an iPhone. I shop in multinational supermarkets. I buy goods made by third world labour. But I have made a pledge that where possible I will stop. I will buy my food locally. I will buy Australian made products where ever possible because every purchase is an ethical responsibility. It’s simply naive to pretend it's not. There is a responsible drinking campaign called Think Before You Drink; maybe there should be one for shopping as well. ‘Comprehend before you Spend’.

Sounding like a mythological creature that dwells in the depths of a Bangalow billabong, the Bangalow Broadfoot is actually far less sinister, incarnating as a band appearing at the Bangalow Hotel on Friday from 7.30pm.

Byron Bay local comedian and 2009 semifinalist on Australia’s Got Talent Sandy Ghandi will appear as the support act for the next Northern Star Comedy Cave event in Lismore on Saturday. Australia’s most easterly Indian will warm up the mic for headline act Mark McConville. Mark McConville has been a standup comedian for thirteen years, and like fine wine he’s getting better with age. His approach is upfront and personal with a direct manner that engages the audience from the first moment he steps onto the stage. Short and punchy, his gags cut to the chase, giving the audience a full physical workout of the best possible medicine – laughter. Mark loves to dissect contemporary issues such as reality TV, advertising, relationships, flying and our newfound love of political correctness. He raises questions about fidelity, honesty and love with both insight and humour. From the trouble with wheelie bins to being on the wrong end of the law, Mark takes those everyday situations we all find ourselves in and makes them amusing to all. Saturday at Lismore City Hall, 8pm. Adult tix $18 / Adult Friend $16.20. Book at www.norpa.org.au or call the box office on 1300 066 772.

Much-loved Melbourne alt-country roots band The Stillsons announce the release of their first single Nobody Knows You Tonight from their forthcoming album Earnest. The Stillsons celebrate their release with a show at the Buddha Bar on Friday as part of their east coast tour throughout July. Full of colourful descriptions of a time when smoking was still legal in pubs, Nobody Knows You Tonight tells the story of a drunken Kiwi backpacker on a pub crawl in the UK – out on the town in one of the world’s biggest and dirtiest cities: London. Written and sung by English expat Justin Bernasconi, the song recollects an actual account of Bernasconi’s time spent in North West London. ‘Nobody Knows You Tonight’ sings the chorus, describing feelings of total anonymity, personal freedom and inebriation.

Mozart’s Sister in Mullum Rene Feret’s vivacious costume drama about Mozart’s talented older sister Nannerl is a vivid depiction of 18th-century pre-revolutionary France. Alive with exuberantly performed characters and bursting with the joy and power of music, this film is a stunner. Accomplished singer, harpsichordist and violinist Nannerl is Wolfgang’s elder by five years. Originally held up as the family’s child prodigy, she is forced to take a back step to her younger brother, in line with the social conventions which dictate that the violin is a man’s province. She may be as talented as Mozart, but her destiny shall be rather different. Mozart’s Sister screens as a Mullum Flicks movie at the Civic Hall in Mullumbimby on Saturday. 6.30pm Dinner, 7.30pm Film.

Last week’s solution

E ARIES: Uranus retrograde in Aries till early December brings surprises – some delightful, others not so – including identitycrisis-triggering revelations about yourself, ranging from fantastic to flabbergasting. And kicking off your biggest reinvention of yourself in this lifetime Aries, so go for the most splendidly authentic version you can. F TAURUS: Despite mind-changing, drama-queen scenes, broody moods, power sulks and people behaving badly, for Taurans this week’s about new ideas. A news item, sound byte, even something accidentally overheard could profoundly alter your attitude towards future planning and change initiated by you. Now we’re talking… G GEMINI: This week you’re in the material world of money, honey; discussing joint investments or shared finances with others who may not agree with you about what’s equal. If they don’t, ask yourself are you really being fair. Are they? Or are you both dealing with unresolved issues? H CANCER: Happiness is more involved with choice than is usually recognised so if this week activates one of your glass-half-empty moods, then visualise it bubbling over with Bollingers of positive possibilities: your rich reserves of talent, influential friends and people who love you no matter what. I LEO: If this week’s players take exception to your vivid personality and commanding presence, then step back and see how they get along without you. You don’t need to boast, exaggerate or adopt any kind of showbiz pose – just be the wise, warm-hearted leading light you are. J VIRGO: If others are temperamental, be the observer rather than the critic this week because people won’t want pressure, will need supportive understanding. But only up to a point, which doesn’t include catering to excessive expectations or knocking yourself out trying to decipher mixed messages and ambivalent signals. K LIBRA: If this week’s cranky, cantankerous citizens have you wondering whatever happened to grace under pressure,

modelling it might jog their memories. If not you’ll probably have to speak up, with Friday’s full moon in your house of prestige and status adding weight to your views. L SCORPIO: This week triggers a merger between your inner and outer selves, which requires the trickiest of tightrope dances between surrender and self-control – for instance keeping yourself open to new realisations while simultaneously monitoring any tendencies to being obsessive, possessive or competitive. M SAGITTARIUS: Not everything’s above board this week – there’s a lot going on behind the scenes and under the radar, especially other people’s motivations which even they mightn’t be aware of. Your job’s to organise resources effectively and defend yourself against energetic distractions of your own making. N CAPRICORN: Book your personal mobility unit in for recharging and repairs this week. Lay off getting the universe in order, especially during Friday’s Capricorn full moon (known in the trade as control freaks’ full moon) when being insistent could spark a towering inferno of emotional resistance. O AQUARIUS: This week caters to your taste for new experiences by bringing the world to your doorstep in the form of unusual visitors. As usual you’ll exhibit no shortage of vivid opinions, but with others sensitive and self-protective, keep your inner editor switched to tact and diplomacy. P P ISCES: The more you expect things to be a certain way the less likely that is to happen this week; sorry about that. This doesn’t exclude beneficial or enjoyable results, but suggests being prepared for these to present in a somewhat different package than you imagined.

CHESS by Ian Rogers

For the second time in three years, Australia has taken bronze at the Commonwealth Championships. Canberra’s David Smerdon (pictured above) travelled to Johannesburg in South Africa without great expectations, the Australian number two being out of practice and out of form. In a massive field of 369 in the title event, any misstep was likely to prove fatal and Smerdon made two, losing twice to unfancied local players – one of whom, Nicholas van der Nat, led the tournament outright with just

The Human Resources Manager Before writing this review, I logged on to IMDb to make sure that I’d got my facts right about the cast and crew etc (a novel idea, I agree). Can you imagine how surprised I was to discover that none of the characters in this grimly funny movie is named? Casting my mind back, I realised that was indeed the case (with the exception of Yulia, the dead

woman who appears only at the end in a photograph), which made me admire the ease with which director Eran Riklis had put me on intimate terms with those on his road trip. Yulia, a Christian expat, was killed in a suicide bombing on a Jerusalem bus. She’d been working for Israel’s largest baker and had inadvertently been kept on the payroll for three weeks after being sacked. Reeling from bad PR, and in a gesture aimed at placating a rabid media, her former employer

assigns its Human Resources Manager (Mark Ivanir) the task of accompanying Yulia’s coffin to her native land (obviously Romania). The Weasel (Guri Alfi) goes along for the ride to cover the story for his paper. The journey takes on the elements of black farce when the entourage arrives in the foreign capital to encounter Israel’s consul, Yulia’s divorced husband and the driver who has been hired to take them to her village. But the story really comes to life when, searching the nightmarish wasteland of an abandoned industrial complex, they find the feral Boy (Noah Silver), Yulia’s son. The country through which they pass is demoralisingly cold, poor and backward – nonetheless, I couldn’t help being reminded, with all of them all squeezed into the van, of Little Miss Sunshine. Riklis’s The Lemon Tree (2008) was uncompromisingly political in its intention, but here he is concerned with the very personal (and universal) question of ‘where is home?’ With a weary but lighthearted resignation, he seems to be suggesting that the answer to that conundrum is not knowable – hence his characters’ anonymity. ~ John Campbell

Mozart’s Sister Bringing into the foreground the neglected woman (or in this case the unknown sister) behind the great man has been a welcome cinematic off-shoot of the feminist movement. Nannerl (Nanna) Mozart, Wolfgang’s older, only surviving sibling, was an accomplished musician and, it is argued, an extremely gifted composer in her own right. There is debate

(G)

LATEST IN DIGITAL SURROUND SOUND

BALLINA FAIR CINEMAS

among scholars as to how many of her brother’s early works are inappropriately attributed to him, but otherwise Nanna’s music has not survived. French director René Féret’s decision to commission from Marie-Jean Serreo a score ‘in the manner of’ the imagined works of his subject succeeds in moving her out of the younger genius’s shadow but it tends to take a bit of the gloss off a sumptuous film – in truth, I kept hoping for a blast of the ‘real’ Mozart. Féret’s opting to cast his own daughters, Marie and Lisa, in the roles of Nanna and the Princess Louise de France is more successful – the guileless performances of both are captivating for their simplicity. Facially, both look the part, too – it’s as if they have just been sitting for a portrait by Boucher or Fragonard. But the anticipated theme, dealing with the double standard that kept women in their place, though underpinning the story, is never taken to with a red-hot poker. Instead, the central, most compelling element is the relationship that grows between Nanna and the Dauphin (later to be Louis XVI of France) after the pair meet at Versailles. Clovis Fouin comes close to stealing the show with his depiction of the prince as an insecure, powder-wigged emo (what a pity he’s headed for the guillotine, I thought) and it is this sexual tension he stirs that is most appealing. He doesn’t have a lot to do, but David Moreau is beautifully cast as the precocious Wolfgang and Marc Barbé is excellent as the ambitious father shopping his prodigious kids around the courts of Europe on their baroque gig guide. Catch it at Mullum flicks. ~ John Campbell

Television Guide 1. Our Rusty plays an investigative journalist in State Of Play (Prime, Friday, 8.30pm). It’s about a congressman with a secret life – whoda thought? 2. One increasingly turns to SBS for films with a touch of difference: Narco – The Secret Adventures Of Gustave Klopp (SBS2, Saturday, 9pm) follows the internal life of a Walter Mitty character suffering from narcolepsy. If you fall asleep, it’s OK. 3. Bruce Willis is back scaling difficult things and taking on bad guys in Die Hard 4.0 (Ten, Sunday, 8.30pm). That’s a nice-looking shipping container he’s crawling across.

French Onion Soup Victoria Cosford

I was defrosting the refrigerator, a dreary though ultimately highly satisfying procedure. And there was that bag of small onions I had expected to incorporate into a recent casserole and completely forgotten about, calling fretfully out to me soup, soup, or so I imagined. French Onion Soup of course! I had not made it for such a long time I had not remembered the tears that would flow; it had been unwise, previously, to remove my protective contact lenses. Once sliced thinly, however, it became the much-loved recipe I did remember, the translucent half-moons collapsing gradually into the heating pot of olive oil. Afterwards I chided myself for not beginning with butter – butter endowing that luxurious richness to the final product – and thought that a slurp of brandy, had there been any residing in my cupboard, would have provided another lovely layer. As it was, my Onion Soup – or Soupe à l’Oignon – resulted in a deep bowl of dense soul-warming broth redolent of sweet, caramelised onions, fresh bay leaf and whole black peppercorns with which I had simmered it, under its plank of toasted sourdough and molten parmesan. Not strictly faithful to the traditional French recipe, I was well aware, but one must rely on what one has at hand. It seemed fitting, a soup like that, with Bastille Day nearly upon us. Soupe à l’Oignon was made famous in

Café by day, Italian restaurant by night. Targa is dishing up contemporary Italian fare, seven days a week, Genovese Coffee and a small but interesting wine list of local and Italian varietals

Writer Eric Weir says of Soupe à l’Oignon that ‘there is a little restaurant in Montmartre where one can eat it in a most cheerful, disreputable crowd, to the sound of an asthmatic concertina, up to any hour of the morning… it tastes best at 2 o’clock in the morning after a hectic night’.

the Les Halles district of Paris and was a poor man’s dish. My mother’s Soupe à l’Oignon was close to the authentic, although what chiefly characterised it, at least in my memory, was the amount of time we needed to patiently wait for it to become cool enough to lower our soup spoons into. She had gone so far as to purchase oven-proof bowls for it, into which she would ladle her burnished-brown soup (rich, yes, in both butter and brandy, her two great loves). On top she would arrange breadstick slices then an ample scattering of grated gruyere cheese and into the oven until the cheese melted. There we would be, a family suspended before our searing bowls, longing – because the fragrance was so glorious – for the moment we could dunk the spoon in and using its side as a little knife carve away a section of the semisubmerged cheesy bread before conveying its contents to our mouths. Greedy child that I was, I invariably ended up with a blistered mouth.

Giants stung by untimely home defeat Jonty dives right in

So near and yet so far… Giants centre Simon Baines has lunged for the line. Full back James Chester applauds the try – but the ref rained on the boys’ parade and disallowed it. Photo Tree Faerie. John Campbell

Heart can only take you so far in a game of rugby league. Coach Damon Scott’s Mullumbimby Giants have that priceless commodity in spades, but missing the quality and experience of a number of players sidelined with serious injury they were always going to struggle against a bigger, welldrilled outfit like the Cudgen Hornets. And so it was at Les Donnelly Field on Sunday, when they went down to the Hornets by 36-12 in their round twelve NRRRL clash. In ideal conditions for footy

– cold and cloudless – Mullum made the more impressive opening. Their swarming defence was vigorous and effective, their ball movement and handling precise. They came close early when a long, arrow-like pass from half Matt Mulcahy saw centre Simon Baines get to the line only to be denied in his attempted grounding of the ball. Persistent pressure paid off when busy hooker Grant Cook, darting from dummy-half, regathered his own chip to score next to the sticks. Mulcahy’s conversion put Mullum ahead 6-0, but Cudgen replied soon after and went further ahead with

tries that suggested that, given any opportunity, they would ruthlessly exploit it. A penalty to the Giants deep in enemy territory resulted in quick-thinking prop Mitch Morris barging over and, behind 12-16 as they trudged to the sheds, the hosts would have looked to the second forty with some optimism. But clichés only become clichés because they’re true – everything depended, as the pundits say, on who scored first after the break. With so much at stake, the Giants’ scrappiness was as anticlimactic as it was out of character. The visitors’ captain/coach

Craig Field was sin-binned, but instead of capitalising on being a man up, Mullum allowed Cudgen to extend their lead to 26-12, at which point the Hornets’ towering prop, began to fancy himself as Rambo against his smaller opponents. Dishing out elbows and facials, the big bloke got up everybody’s nose and managed to draw the season’s loudest and longest Bronx cheer when he steamed on to a pass only to lamely have the ball fly from his grasp with the impact of the Giants’ smashing tackle. It was LOL and the crowd went berko. Not surprisingly, given Mullum’s run of atrocious luck with injuries this season, damaging second-rower Adam Shaw, recently returned from a playing stint in la belle France, was unable to take part in proceedings after the resumption. Not that any of the Giants’ forwards took a backward step – bantamweight lock Jake Wood typified the blue-and-gold spirit by fearlessly throwing himself into the heat of battle against the borderline Neanderthals. Earlier, the Giants’ reggies were conquered to the fabulously historical tune of 10-66. With four games left until the play-offs, Sunday’s loss has left Mullum’s A-grade sitting precariously in fifth place on the ladder. They are next at home on Saturday, July 23, when they take on Kyogle in what is looming as a game of critical importance. Get out there and support the boys.

Chicky Babes Bomb Squad’s First Kiss Recently nine local girls packed their skateboards and helmets and set off to Noosa for the First Kiss freeride longboarding event. The event was held on a long steadily slopping road just out of Noosa. It’s a long drive to get there but

unlike anywhere else in Australia, it’s a closed road that is maintained for public use; the perfect place to experience downhill skateboarding safely. Girls’ longboarding is still fresh and mostly uncharted, with only a small handful of

women in the world riding and racing on the IGSA (International Gravity Sports Association) circuit, but, downhill longboarding has exploded and Australia currently is in the top of the field. Byron Bay has two skate lo-

cations; local riders hope they will become friendly areas – The Wreck carpark is one and the old highway at Ewingsdale is the other. To be a part of the local group, meet on Friday afternoons at The Wreck for lessons and a relaxing ride.

Mullumbimby teenager Jonty Thompson loved watching the diving at the Commonwealth Games last year and he thought he would like to give it a try. The 13-year-old only took up the sport this year and he has taken to it like a fish to water. Jonty represented NSWCSSA in Discus last year. When walking past the aquatic centre to return home, he commented that he really wanted to come back to Sydney to compete in the diving. He began training earlier New moon

He had to stop training when daylight saving finished at the end of summer as he couldn’t get up there in time in the mornings, but has managed to go a few times in the holidays.

Swans glide to victory over Suns Byron still leads Village comp

him a good chance of securing a much needed goal during the first quarter. To the Suns’ dismay, Ablett’s kick went awol and delivered no score and a twisted knee and damage to his medial ligament the end result of the mark. Coach Guy McKenna gave Ablett the rest of the evening off and tests on his knee will be carried out on Monday. Sydney booted the first three goals of the game giving them a 22-point lead at the end of the first quarter. The Suns had

ample opportunity to match the Swans with six missed attempts at goal and some rushed moves. Suns’ wonderkid David Swallow kicked two quick goals in the second quarter to cut the margin back to 16 points but the Swans hit back with three late goals to close the door on the hosts. An uninspiring third quarter saw just 1.8 kicked by both sides, mostly kicked by the Swans’ veteran Adam Goodes as the kids of the Gold Coast looked lost at sea without Ablett’s leadership. They managed to kick their fourth goal for the match through forward Tom Lynch early in the last quarter but a Swans victory was already assured by that stage and confirmed with a further five goals for the term. The Suns struggled to match the Swans’ ball skills with a final siren 15.16 (106) to 4.12 (36) loss at Metricon Stadium –the Swans were showing the Sun ‘cygnets’ how it was done. The young Suns side have put up a valiant effort this season so far and the next home match will see the Reid brothers face each other off when they meet Collingwood at the sold-out game.

40 July 12, 2011 The Byron Shire Echo

Moonshiners Dean Trevaskis

On paper it appeared a mismatch, last placed Mullumbimby at home to second placed premier contenders Kyogle. But true to tradition the Moonshiners would not follow the script. Opportunities were scarce in the first half as both forward packs slugged it out. To the Cockatoo’s growing frustration Mullum were giving as good as they got. When the whistle blew for the half neither side had bothered the scorer. Dan Raye was revelling in his first game back leading the way from the second row. Facing the prospect of having their high-flying feathers plucked the Cockatoos came out blazing after the break. The Shiners had spent twenty minutes dug into their own half when the Flying Scotsman Jack Ferguson broke the Cockies’ line and to the cheers of the Moonshine faithful scored an end-to-end try. Down 7–0 the Cockies were rattled and squawking at the ref. They regained their composure and with the assistance of some missed tackles managed to find the line three times in the final 15 minutes to avert the upset of the season. These brief lapses have been the Shiners’ Achilles all season. Despite the disappointment of going down 17–7 it was a terrific performance that showed there was still plenty of pride in the Moonshine jersey.

Byron DJ Longtime

In one of the most anticipated rugby games this season, competition leaders Byron Bay hosted third placed Evans Head last Saturday. Evans were high on confidence having scored more than 160 points during their recent five-match winning streak. In front of the biggest home crowd for many years the Bay responded to the challenge, winning 45-7 to remain unbeaten after ten rounds. Byron’s game plan was to dominate the less experienced opposition pack and when Tom Renshaw was driven across the line by a determined eight-man maul the visitors looked rattled.

Jack Ferguson

Bangalow travelled to Yamba going down 17-3. In a game of two halves Bangalow dominated the first but could only

manage a penalty. Plenty of opportunities were created but not capitalised on as mistakes and decisions cost the visitors further points. The second half saw Yamba come back into the game largely on the back of Bangalow mistakes. Their fly half used the wind, punishing Bangalow with his long-hauling kicks that gave them enough territory to apply pressure. Yamba scored two converted tries and a penalty during the half. The effort from Bangalow was evident with everyone having a good dig but the application was poor at times. Best for Bangalow were props Dan Hill and Jake Salvitori, blind side breakaway Richard Kelly and inside centre Matt Bleakley. Now in sixth position, Bangalow need to win every game with some bonus points and hope other teams fall away to make the semis and are fired up for next weekend’s home game against Kyogle which is the annual Ladies and Sponsors Day. The club will be providing drinks and nibbles so all sponsors, wives, partners and girlfriends are invited to thank them for their support.

Byron poured on the pressure but conceded a try in the final seconds of the half. After an evenly contested opening ten minutes of the second half, the injection of high-profile forward Logan Melville from the interchange bench re-ignited the home team. Melville powered over to score as did back row partner and regular try line poacher Michael Armstrong. Plaudits went to flanker Tom Homer who relishes the big games along with his forward partners Renshaw, Smith and Melville. Champion veteran Mick Leece was still probably the best player on the field. Kearney scored 15 points including a deft first half field goal, a sight not seen at a Byron rugby match since the days of black-and-white television. Byron Bay supporters can enjoy another home game this Saturday with the visit of Iluka. Kick off at the Recreation Fields is at 2.30pm.

More needs to be done for housing affordability Real Estate Institute of Australia (REIA) Acting President, Ms Pamela Bennett, said despite the welcome news of a rate hold by the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA), more needs to be done for housing affordability in Australia. Despite the June quarter REIA Deposit Power Housing Affordability Report showing a small improvement in housing affordability in Australia, the REIA’s indicator is still a concern for home owners and potential home buyers. ‘The proportion of income required to meet loan repayments is at 25.1 per

cent which means that the average Australian household is spending about $370 on weekly loan repayments, an additional $150 per month on top of what t h e y were spending two years ago,’ said Ms Bennett. ‘The respite the RBA has provided to home buyers as well as existing owners is welcome news but we need to see it continue for the foreseeable future. ‘REIA will continue to call on all levels of government to work together to address the issue of housing affordability in Australia through taxation reform and addressing supply-side constraints.’

What is a pre–purchase property Property in Focus Relax in Luxury at Vue Byron Bay inspection report? It’s one of the different types of building inspection reports you DBO HFU EPOF "T UIF OBNF TBZT this building inspection report is the one you get before you CVZ B QSPQFSUZ 4PNFUJNFT SF ferred to as a â€˜standard property report’, a pre–purchase property inspection report is a written account of the condition of a property. It will tell you about any significant building defects or problems such as rising damp, movement in the walls (cracking), safety hazards or a faulty roof to name a few. It is usually carried out before you exchange sale contracts so you can identify any problems with the property which, if left unchecked, could prove costly to repair.

" CVJMEJOH JOTQFDUJPO SFQPSU is different to a â€˜pest inspection report’. While a building inspection report should identify any visual damage that may have been caused by termites, it usually won’t include the existence of termites or other timber-destroying pests. It can be advisable to get a separate pest inspection report done before you buy a property.

Why do I need one? There are three good reasons why you should get a building inspection report done before you buy a property: 1. so you will know in advance what the problems are 2. so you can use the information to try to negotiate a lower

price for the property ie you may have to pay to repair some of the problems 3. so you can get specialist adWJDF BCPVU BOZ NBKPS QSPCMFNT and how they will affect the property over time. 0G DPVSTF UIF CVJMEJOH JOTQFD tion report will be one of many things you will need to consider before buying a property.

Choosing the right person to inspect the property You should always use a suitBCMZ RVBMJÄ• FE QFSTPO TVDI BT a licensed builder, a surveyor or an architect to provide a professional building inspection report of the property you are thinking of buying.

Julia Gillard was very robotic in her presentation of the carbon tax on Sunday but came off better in the subsequent TV interviews. Of course wage slaves in Byron Shire will feel very sorry for the households on $150,000 plus a year who will be worse off. Zeus knows why Abbott deserved a televised right-of-reply – are we in permanent election mode? The best thing which came out of this tentative baby step towards sustainability is the focus on renewable energy – find out more about the government’s plans at www.cleanenergyfuture.gov.au. n n n n

Locals who have been hounded by police sniffer dogs will be interested to learn that the NSW Greens are pushing for an end to the intrusive pooch service. According to SMH, ‘Government figures supplied to the Greens in response to questions on notice show that last year sniffer dogs were involved in 551 searches for firearms or explosives, which identified only five positive cases. Of the 15,779 searches for illegal drugs, 5087 identified them.’ Greens MP David Shoebridge said sniffer dogs had been a ‘clear failure’ and ‘should be stopped immediately’. n n n n

France became the first nation to ban the use of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, on June 30 when senators voted to ban the practice. Oil and gas companies operating in France with fracking permits will have them revoked. See more on Care2 at http://bit.ly/osXe62. n n n n

Further to the debate about exporting live animal exports for slaughter to Indonesia, New Zealand banned live sheep exports in 2003 and imposed a total ban in 2007, although there are exemptions for breeding stock. There was an interview on ABC National on June 18 with former agriculture minister Jim Anderton, which you can download at http://bit. ly/lv2qpj. Anderton says that the economic consequences have been nothing but positive, because a) the country’s ethical stand on animal welfare avoids the risk of consumer backlash in key markets, and b) keeping processing and adding value in New Zealand means more jobs and higher export earnings. In the former minister’s words, this is a ‘no brainer’. n n n n While the so-called ‘high priest’ of climate change sceptics continues to spread the word on his speaking tour of Australia, one company has cheekily offered to offset Lord Monckton’s carbon emissions for his entire three-week tour. Yonderr is among a number of companies that sell packages to offset your carbon footprint. The money is used for activities like planting trees and developing alternative energy sources. Yonderr said it made the offer because it believed the serial denier secretly cares for the future of the Earth. ‘We are offsetting his flights which are estimated to be around three tonnes and rounding that up to 10 tonnes to cover the additional hot air produced during his lectures,’ the company says. The ten tonnes of carbon being offset for Lord Monckton would fill ten Olympic swimming pools (standard pressure at sea level) so it’s no small puddle.

The lack of parking spaces in Byron Bay has led some enterprising campers to use the beachside rocks. Simply wait for the tide to come in, and you’re pushed ashore in the morning. Watch out for rangers with abseiling gear.
