CAB AUDIT

Optus shafts locals

ArtsCape calls it quits Chris Dobney & Victoria Cosford

The Board of the artsCape Biennial sculpture exhibition has announced that the planned event for 2012 will not proceed and there are no plans to stage it in the future. The board blamed a lack of funding and Council compliance issues for killing off the event. Chairman Robert Bleakley said, ‘It is a great shame that we have been forced to make this decision given the success of artsCape Biennial in 2011 and the considerable pleasure artsCape gave to thousands of local Byron Shire residents and visitors from further afield. ‘It has been a tremendous asset to our community.’

Council compliance issues Board member Tracey Mair said the news was devastating for all involved and particularly for the community as a whole. She added that even if a white knight were to come along artsCape would still face considerable problems mounting a show.

Lennox residents in Basalt Court are furious at Optus and Ballina Council for approving a phone tower on their street. The tower is currently under construction in close proximity to houses on the street, and residents claim it will omit potentially hazardous radiation. A media spokesperson for Optus told The Echo that the company did, however, consult with the residents. He says that while the company acknowledged 135 submissions against and a 300-signiture petition against, he said that there were ten people in favour. Based on that information – and other factors – the company decided to proceed, he said.

Optus would not authorise Daly International, the company that collated public submissions, to speak with The Echo, nor would they provide the ten letters for verification. He added that there is a ‘balance’ when weighing up whether to proceed on building towers in residential areas, and that the amount of opposition and the type of feedback received were considered when Optus made its decision to proceed.

Opposition unanimous Residents are steadfastly refusing to accept the tower. ‘Opposition to this was unanimous,’ says Sue Hetherington of Worried Householders Action Against Tower (WHAAT). ‘The report that was prepared for

‘The compliance issues with Byron Council are extraordinarily difficult to navigate,’ she told The Echo. ‘They are confusing and complex. ‘Our co-curators are very experienced in holding public events. [Dealing with Council] has been enormously challenging. ‘The combination of both of those factors have made it just not feasible to go ahead in 2012 or in the foreseeable future.’ Curator and Shire resident Merran Morrison agrees. She told The Echo that it had taken 13 months for Council to approve the 2010 event. ‘We at least thought second time round Council could offer us a streamlined approval process.’ Ms Morrison claims that Artscape Biennale brought an estimated $300,000 to the local economy. ‘In spite of Clarence Valley Council last year inviting us down there, it still remains a difficult economic climate for the arts.’ On behalf of the board, Mr Bleakley expressed his gratitude to the patrons, volunteers and businesses that supported artsCape.

Optus to give to Council did not provide any support for the tower. Surely if there had been community support for the tower they would have mentioned it.’ Ms Hetherington also says that the only community consultation with both Optus and Council consisted of one meeting, which was cut short. ‘Our concerns were not listened to at all; the room we were using needed to be vacated for something else.’ Throughout negotiations Council did ask Optus to reduce the scale of the tower, which they did. Another resident shared his concerns. ‘They are supposed to work with the community but they haven’t listened to us at all,’ says Monty Gibbs, who lives within 50 metres of the tow-

Lawson and Middleton Streets in Byron Bay. Measuring about 1280 sqm, it will feature environmentally sustainable elements, a section for Indigenous research and a showcase for local arts and crafts alongside traditional library functions. Construction is expected to start soon after Badge Constructions takes possession of the site on September 5.

‘You can’t get much better news than that,’ said Bob Levett. The spokesperson for Byron Bay’s Friends of the Library was referring to the recent announcement that Byron Shire Council had accepted a tender to build the long-awaited new library. ‘After twenty years’ campaigning, everyone’s pleased,’ Mr Levett told The Echo. Queensland’s Badge Constructions Pty Ltd won the Lismore runs Shire’s tender, which was unani- libraries mously accepted at a recent Mr Levett told The Echo Council meeting. The library is expected to that Lismore City Council was cost around $5.6 million and still running the Richmondwill be built on the corner of Tweed Regional Library,

Mr Bangalow receives Premier’s Award Michael Malloy, the man who wears more hats in Bangalow than any other, has finally been rewarded for years of great community service. Last week Ballina MP Don Page presented him with the NSW Premier’s Community Service Award. Michael has been involved with just about every major event in Bangalow, and is the current president of the Chamber of Commerce as well as venue co-ordinator for the Bangalow A&I Hall. Mr Malloy has been heavily involved in the upgrade of the historic hall as well as its dayto-day running. ‘The Bangalow A&I Hall is the heart of Bangalow and provides the perfect venue for

many iconic events in Bangalow, as well as a community gathering space,’ Mr Page said in a media release. ‘Without Michael’s vision and dedication, along with Jan Hulbert and tireless community volunteers, Bangalow would not have this wonderful historical asset.’ Mr Malloy also helped found Bangalow Rugby Club, is still heavily involved in the Bangalow Christmas Eve street party, is president of the Bangalow Music Festival and vice-president of the Bangalow Pool Trust. Mr Page said, ‘It gives me great pleasure to see Michael’s tireless efforts on behalf of the Bangalow community recognised with the prestigious Premier’s Award. There is no question it is well deserved.’

Body found in Mullum river The body of 82-year-old Audrey Woods was recovered from the Mullumbimby river on Saturday. NSW Police, assisted by the SES, Volunteer Rescue Association (VRA) and a Westpac Lifesaver helicopter, conducted

an extensive search of nearby bushland and surrounding areas since the woman was reported missing from a retirement home last Thursday. There are believed to be no suspicious circumstances surrounding Mrs Woods’s death.

which includes Byron Bay. ‘Nobody seems to know much at this stage,’ he said. ‘Our group is very keen to see that it gets back to a county council-type of setup, but Lismore is still in the driving seat at this stage. Things might change with a change of government.’ Byron Area Librarian Nicole Don confirmed that Lismore City Council was still running the libraries. ‘But the law’s been changed and some of the councils, especially Byron, are keen to go with that.’ In May this year minister for the arts, George Souris, said that new legislation introduced by the NSW government stops

the need for one council to be responsible for the management of library services and that responsibility can be shared between councils when they run a joint enterprise. Originally, the RichmondTweed Library had been run in a similar fashion until Lismore took over last year following changes in law. ‘At the moment a new library agreement is being drawn up by the Lismore City Council but it hasn’t been signed off yet,’ Ms Don told The Echo. ‘Lismore will be an administrative council but might want to come up with a joint co-operative mode the way it was before.’

Bangalow alive with art

Bangalow Public School Art Show ‘Bangalow Alive’ was held over the weekend. The show was a roaring success which featured an auction of the children’s work. Years three and four created a wonderful piece which raised the most money. The ‘Heritage Buildings of Bangalow’ was made of 42 squares of canvas which the class individually coloured with oil pastels. Contributing artists Avriti, Kiarna, Conor and Isabella are

Food festival returns to the Shire Not since 2007 has there been a food festival in the Byron Shire. The last event, run by the Lions Club and featuring chillis as its theme, was a successful two-day event at Denning Park, Main Beach. Now, thanks to organiser Remy Tancred, who publishes both The Lennox Wave and Sample magazines, the Sample Food Festival will take place at the Bangalow Showground on Saturday September 10. To become an annual spring event, its aim is to celebrate

the vibrant food scene in the Northern Rivers with representation by restaurants, farmers and producers. The festival will run from 9am to 3pm, and will culminate in a gala dinner, to be held at the Byron at Byron Resort and Spa, cooked by a group of well-known local chefs. There will be cooking and lifestyle demonstrations throughout the day as well as restaurant marquees serving up tasting plates. Live entertainment will also include Festival chefs up for a cookup on September 10. Backrow: Scott Kurtis, Ilona Harker and Tres Frost, Joe Griffin, Gavin Hughes.

er and is currently receiving treatment for cancer. ‘Reception is pretty good already,’ says Jacob Carter, 15, and an Optus customer whose family home backs on to the tower. ‘There’s no need to put that there and affect people’s health.’

Impacts inconclusive Clearly it’s the health issues which underpin residents’ opposition to the tower. There has been widespread research into the health impacts of radiofrequency electromagnetic energy (EME). Findings remain inconclusive. The official view in Australia comes from the Australian Media and Communications Authority (ACMA). According to their fact sheet: ACMA has made ‘mandatory EME exposure limits for installations such as broadcast towers… many times below a level of exposure to EME that is known to have adverse health effects on the human body.’ A little understood fact about EME is that it drops off very quickly with distance from the source.

The inverse square rule is a law of physics that applies to all radiation, and it states that the amount of radiation drops off by the distance from the source squared. If one person is standing 10 metres from a tower and another is 50 metres away, the person further away doesn’t get one fifth of the radiation, they get one fifth squared. That is 1/25th of the EME. As a result, a mobile phone jammed to your ear broadcasts far more radiation into your head than a 100 watt tower 50 metres away. According to the Optus spokesperson, the company has thoroughly tested the EME levels to be produced by the tower. ‘EME levels at residences surrounding the tower are one per cent of the exposure limits,’ he says.

Dr Charlie Teo, one of Australia’s leading brain surgeons, has co-authored a report warning of a possible explosion in cancer resulting from EME. ‘If we’re right we’re going to see a huge increase in brain tumours and brain cancer in the next decade or so. It’s going to be frightening,’ he told 60 Minutes reporter Liam Bartlett in a 2009 interview. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) had previously stated that there were no links between cancer and mobile phone use, but in a more recent report have found associations, as did a World Health Organisation report which now rates mobile phone use as ‘possibly carcinogenic.’

Long-term effects

film-maker Sharon Shostak. Sharon recently completed a full-length documentary on The Echo and its history. Such is the pace of the news cycle that subscribers will probably have already seen the first two editions of our daily web publication before they read this item in the old steam Echo.

However, even scientists who see no link between EME and cancer concede that ACMA’s EME standards are based on studies which are short term, and that insufficient work has been done on long-term effects, or effects on children.

Mobile phones and mobile towers deliver very different doses over different timeframes, but they both operate at the same frequency. ‘This is just like cigarettes. First they said it was good for you, then they said it wasn’t bad for you, then they said there was no conclusive evidence proving it could kill you, and now it’s Australia’s largest public health problem,’ says Sue Hetherington. ‘The Telecommunications Act requires Optus to take a precautionary approach. ‘We want them to do that, we want them to listen to us, and we don’t want a tower,’ she concludes.

CSG companies under growing pressure Ray Moynihan

As the high-profile Senate inquiry into coal-seam gas continues, Queensland has announced new restrictions on drilling close to towns and a New South Wales parliamentary probe has opened for submissions.

much of the way the resource is extracted, transported and delivered. But if gas is not as green as previously believed, and coal can clean up its act, the differences between the two energy forms will start to shrink, and the comparison with renewable energy will look even starker. As an example of the changing science, the United States government very recently revised upwards its estimates of highly polluting methane emissions associated with some forms of gas extraction. While leaks from wells using fracking were a key culprit, important caveats include the fact that gas has been more commonly extracted from shale in the US rather than coal seams, and that technology may be more modern and regulations tighter in Australia.

Tighter regulations In Queensland those regulations were tightened last week, as the government announced new restrictions on companies exploring within two kilometres of towns with 1000 or more people. In New South Wales the parliamentary inquiry is briefly taking submissions, though they close in the first week of September. And nationally, the activist group GetUp is collecting a petition to stop coal-seam gas mining, visiting northern New South Wales recently as part of its intelligence gathering for the campaign. While an informal alliance of farmers and environmentalists is driving much of the community protest, it’s unclear what impact an increase in compensation to landholders – or improvement in regulation – will have on the strength of opposition.

Local investor sells properties Victoria Cosford

Entrepreneur Eddie Phillips has placed two properties in the Shire on the market. Janis Perkins of Raine & Horne Byron Bay confirmed that he was selling three retail spaces on Jonson Street – including where the The Byronian cafe is located – and the River View Inn motel in Brunswick Heads. The River View Inn is next door to the Hotel Brunswick and comprises twelve rooms, a licensed restaurant, reception, laundry and two-bedroom

home with parking for 12 vehicles. Mr Phillips paid $1.6 million for it in 2000 and is now hoping for $2.5 million. Rachael Smith, owner of the Sandbar cafe in the River View Inn complex, told The Echo that in the two years since she and her partners have been running their business they have only ever been given a six-month lease. Ms Smith added she hopes the new owners ‘recognise the good we’re doing and decide not only to renovate but give us a two-year lease so that finally we can feel safe.’

So this means I am actively trying to recruit as many young people as I can to take action on climate change by attending the summit in October and show they want strong action on climate change.’ Powershift will be held in Brisbane and Perth this year.

people of Nepal. ‘I realised that climate change is not just about the natural environment but about people. The choices we make in Australia regarding climate change are going to affect not just us but people all over the world.’ When Amelia returned home she immediately joined the Australian Youth Climate Coalition (AYCC). ‘I realised that I could no longer be apathetic towards climate change. I know it is occurring at such a rapid rate and

that it is up to my generation to stop this because if we don’t, it will be too late.’ The AYCC is an entirely youth-run project building a generation-wide movement to solve the climate crisis. Their aim is to educate, inspire and mobilise young people across the country. Their main annual event is the ‘Powershift’ conference held in capital cities, a three-day summit to inspire, empower and activate at least 1,000 young people. ‘The AYCC is an amazing organisation with over 60,000 members,’ says Amelia. ‘We are fed up with the negativity of the debate regarding action on CC and “Powershift” is a chance to show the youth support change’. Amelia says that recently the media debate has been focused on scare tactics from the opposition and mining sector and negativity regarding the carbon tax. ‘I think the focus should be on the fact that we are finally

They claim the crowd represented a broad cross-section of mostly local residents together with representatives of the Chamber of Commerce and the Lennox Head Surfing Reserve Committee. Local surfers have been a strong contingent in the opposition to the handrail (but not the shared pathway) and they hasten to point out that Lennox Head is part of only four surfing reserves in the country. They argue the handrail is a blot on Lennox’s iconic headland. The demonstrators are demanding that the handrail be removed. They argue that the architecture and landscaping need to fit in more with the aesthetic value of the Lennox headland.

lation of the handrail until it is voted on in Council this week. Cr Moore is arguing for complete removal of the handrail except in those places where it’s critical for safety and that in those places there be ‘an appropriate redesign undertaken’. He has foreshadowed a motion to get an independent landscape design and engineering service to come up with the design. ‘This is the beginning of the shared cycleway,’ he told The Echo. ‘Better for us to come up with a redesign at the beginning than realise halfway

through that the community are completely against what we’re doing.’ Opposing removal of the handrail, Cr Sharon Cadawaller told The Echo she is concerned it could put Council in breach of its occupational health and safety obligations. ‘I’m happy to go back and look at a different design for the remainder of the shared pathway but not go back and redo anything that’s already been done. ‘We’ve got homeless people in our Shire – I can’t be an advocate for wasting public money.’

Bunnings buys the big prawn in Ballina Bunnings have annouced it intends to make the Big Prawn in Ballina a mega-superstore. If approved by Ballina Council, the company say they will invest more than $30 million into the new store. They claim it will create an

‘additional 70 jobs for local residents.’ Wesfarmers owns Bunnings and Coles supermarkets, along with other interests. Woolworths and Wesfarmers control over 80 per cent of Australia’s food market.

Winners of the seventh annual Simple Pleasures Photography Competition have been announced. The finalist in this year’s competition are April Lilleyman, Grace Austin, Zoe Nichol, James Russell, Sage Lilleyman, Cameron Jones, Michelle Begg, Rod Thom, Jill Garland, Jill Moonie, Pamela Punch, Michelle Davies and Jo Immig. Though entries were down on last year, the standard was

Ten grand goes to lucky locals Byron Community Primary opens up for art and music thanks to BayFM’s sub-drive The winner of the $10,000 prize, Byron resident Jake Dolan, broke his arm recently and his mum, Sheree Craft, subscribed for him as a gift to cheer him up. Now they’re both celebrating because Jake will share the prize with his Mum. Jake says that he’s never won anything in his life and can’t believe his luck. BayFM’s annual subscriber drive celebrated its final day on Sunday August 21 with a record number of subscribers to our community radio station. The incentive of winning $10,000 cash, as well as 14 daily prizes throughout the two weeks of the drive, was enough to encourage 1,335 listeners to subscribe during the event. BayFM says it’s a 42 per cent increase on last year’s figures and the best result for a subscriber drive ever.

The winner of the Business prize of 30 promotional spots on BayFM was Thai at Byron. ‘What a great endorsement of our 21 years of community radio’, said BayFM President Ros Elliott. ‘We want to thank each and every listener who supported our station with a subscription and, of course, our generous major sponsors the Byron Bay Premium Brewery, the Byron Blues Fest, Possum Creek Eco Lodge, the Rails and the Great Northern. We couldn’t have done it without you. ‘Now it’s back to creating great radio for our wonderful community’. Monthly prizes for new subscribers resume in September.

Storm of fear rolls on, ten years later

After all it would be hard to find a single day of the year There is a great scene in the movie Fight Club, where the main character which has been consistently talks to a fellow airline passenger about his job. free of pollies’ porkies.

century to be lauded for such tenacity. And, like the Bourbons, our leaders are apparently lagging significantly behind the public. A poll taken last week found that slightly more than half the voters would now like to see asylum seekers processed within Australia, with the rest more or less equally divided between those who would rather retain off-shore process-

Surely, after ten unhappy years, it is time to lift the shadow of the Tampa and for Australia to show a modicum of compassion and commonsense. And think of the money we could save.

It is time to lift the shadow of the Tampa and for Australia to show a modicum of compassion and commonsense. by Mungo MacCallum ing and those who just want to send the bastards home. It’s hardly an overwhelming result but it does suggest that attitudes have become both more humane and more rational than either Julia Gillard or Tony Abbott are prepared to acknowledge. Abbott, of course, is happy to use any issue to hand to beat on the government, and is unconcerned about the collateral damage. But it should give Gillard and her responsible minister, Chris Evans, a few seconds of doubt. Their current policy is, by any measure, a fiasco. It has alienated the left while failing to assuage the right. It represents yet another backflip, but has not solved the ongoing political problem. It is hideously expensive and shows every sign of becoming more so with the apparently open-ended commitment to the governments of Malaysia and Papua-New Guinea. It is hugely damaging to the mental and physical health of the asylum seekers and a blot on Australia’s inter-

And speaking of money, just what is to be done about Craig Thomson? Well, probably not much. For the government, he represents a continuing embarrassment, but hardly the existential threat for which the more excitable commentators are baying. Apart from death and resignation, the only ways Thomson can be forced out of parliament and precipitate the longed-for by-election are by becoming bankrupt or by being convicted of a criminal offence. The Labor party, through a timely donation of $90,000 or $150,000 or whatever it was, has already prevented the first and will presumably continue to do so. And as for the second – well, no charges have yet been laid and it appears unlikely that they will be. The accusations centre around the alleged misuse of a Health Services Union credit card. The first problem is that the union itself has made no official complaint to the police or to anyone else, and

without its active co-operation it would be hard to build a case; and of course Thomson has strenuously denied any wrongdoing on his part. And before any prosecution was launched, the case would have to be rock-solid, unlosable; because the consequences either way would be incalculable. It would take a very courageous bureaucrat to go to court over a relatively minor fraud with a brief which, if it succeeded, would in all probability bring down the federal government. Godwin Gretch, of course, was ready to do so, and was even prepared to fabricate the evidence. But fortunately there are not many Godwin Gretches left in today’s public service. On the revelations to date, Craig Thomson is not exactly an ornament to the parliament; indeed, he may well be a thorough-going sleazebag. But that has never been a disqualification from high office, which is just as well. If it were, we’d be facing a by-election every second week. And I cannot end this piece without a mention of the tragic death of Paul Lockyer and his ABC colleagues. Lockyer was a fine reporter, a great bloke and a personal friend. I first met him some forty years ago and in all that time have never heard any of his colleagues say a bad word about him – a solid enough tribute in itself. He was that rare being, a journalist who could make the rest of us feel proud of our craft. And he never took himself too seriously. An epitaph from W H Auden seems appropriate: As the poets have mournfully sung Death takes in the innocent young; The screamingly funny Those rolling in money And even the very well hung. Vale, mate.

A history of bullying in Council Your correspondent Peter Morgan (Letters, August 16) has very clearly outlined the bullying culture in many Australian workplaces. Many of the situations he has mentioned have been informally reported (people are afraid to speak on the record) to me as being rife in the Byron Council. As a councillor I have raised these issues with the General Manager both verbally and in writing over a long period but in my opinion he has been unable to act decisively due in part to the many constraints imposed by such things as confidentiality, union sensibilities and insurance liability management. The division of responsibilities between the GM and the elected council in this area is that the GM has sole control of ‘operational’ matters and the councillors formulate ‘policy’. The Local Government Act

does indicate that councillors have an overall responsibility for general governance but the wording is so ambiguous that they can be excluded from any action or indeed information on the state of the operational organisation. I find this situation extremely frustrating but it can only be challenged by a united stand by a majority of councillors – sadly the required majority has shown no interest in going down this path, usually choosing to accept easy options of promised future good intentions. In these situations strong leadership can do much to maintain morale but this is a quality which has been sadly constrained by the pressures of current bureaucratic demands.

How lovely to see such a happy local story on the front page of last week’s Echo. Congratulations to North Ocean Shores for their new Shara Community Gardens. Community gardens are inspiring places of co-operation, fecundity and friendships. This is what our world needs more of. I hope they will be every bit as successful as the wonderful counterpart at Mullumbimby. I would like to take this opportunity to invite people to come and do qui gung on Sundays at 11am at the Mullumbimby Gardens at the end of Stuart Street. These sessions are a tribute to the late Christopher Wright by several of his students. It is delightful to share these health-inducing practices amid gardens and the rolling hills surrounding Mullumbimby. All are invited to join in.

of the bullying culture which exists within the upper staffing levels of the Byron Shire Council. Jos Mitchell has also acted very bravely in exposing the culture which cost her her job, her family security and her desire to contribute to building a better Byron Shire for us all. In my experience, working at a community level, Jos was always available, open, accessible and free of the bureaucratic bullshit and doublespeak which seems to infect much of the upper echelons of Council staff. Ask yourself how many senior Council staff return your phone calls, much less sit up until midnight finalising an important Council report. (Not many I suggest.) As your editorial rightly suggests, the treatment of Jos Mitchell requires a considered response – not one that requires a retreat behind issues

of ‘privacy’ and ‘bureaucratic process’, because that is certainly not where Jos is hiding. The General Manager, her Executive Manager concerned and anyone else who has been involved in this sorry saga must come clean and explain their actions. We have so few officers of the calibre of Jos Mitchell that we cannot afford to lose any more, particularly when dubious outdated practices are used to get rid of them. Some 15 years ago when I resigned as an elected councillor of the Byron Shire I cited a ‘poisonous atmosphere’ that permeated the ‘rats in the ranks’ leadership style engendered by the then Council leadership. We will see in the next few weeks if anything has changed or if it is just business as usual. The latter, sadly, I suspect.

Byron Shire artists not represented by our council? Visit the acclaimed purposebuilt Tweed River Gallery at Murwillumbah funded by the Tweed Council or Ballina Regional Gallery located in a historic building donated by Ballina Council, and you will see the high standard of work being exhibited. A regional gallery is a venue for local art exhibitions and competitions, an educational arts program, and hosting talks and exhibitions from visiting artists. A regional gallery is a place to bring your visitors, a meeting place for our region’s artists and community, a place to promote the arts and culture of our region. A place to be proud of and a visual link to our unique region. It would require a relatively small investment from the council. Ballina Gallery has one paid staff member assisted by volunteers. I know we need money for

roads etc but we also need a vibrant culture to enrich our lives. Sales generated from a gift shop, the sale of art, and leasing of the space for exhibitions would help finance this undertaking and assist local businesses by bringing visitors into our region.

What do you think about having another pub?

So what do you think about this pub and drive-through bottle shop proposed for Sunrise? The ‘Sun Bistro’ was originally promoted to locals as a family-friendly restaurant and bistro. Yet how can a development so focused around the sale of alcohol be in the best interests of families in this community? With the main streets of Byron increasingly spooky places late at night, and underage drinking a major local issue, is another bottle-o and pub profiting from grog really what we need? And there’s a wider issue here about the brutality of the booze-fuelled-Friday-nightbrigade moving into the subKarin Kolbe urbs where people live. Do President, Suffolk Park we want to set this precedent?

It’s not that we don’t want any development – a café/restaurant, even a licensed one, wouldn’t have the same negative impacts.

differing views about the proposed bistro/bar in Sunrise bring up the issue of appropriate development. All of those who are against the present proposal say they are not against development per se but think that this is not the ‘right thing’ for the area.

they blatantly override the wishes of a local community and their elected councillors. Neither do I condone similar behaviour regarding the establishment of a Dan Murphy’s in the centre of Byron Bay.

Do You Have Osteoarthritis? If the answer is yes, and you are an otherwise healthy person between 18-85 years of age, we would like to invite you to take part in a clinical study looking at the effects of seaweed in improving the symptoms of osteoarthritis. The clinical study is being conducted by the NatMed-Research Unit within Southern Cross Plant Science in centres at Coffs Harbour, Ballina, Byron Bay, Lismore and the Tweed. This study has SCU ethics approval.

This concept of appropriate development is something that should be more teased out. The concept of a gathering place for locals is something that comes under the rubric of ‘appropriate development’, so ideally we should all sit down with the developer and have input into what that gathering place should look like before plans are drawn up. The discussion might go something like this: food at reasonable prices, sure; children’s play area, yes; facility for occasional live music, definitely; sensitive design and good acoustics absolutely, and – alcohol? Yes, but not in the form that it dominates, and encourages youth drinking. Perhaps we would have more agreement within the community if the process went something like that. The final blueprint might look something like the Treehouse

at Belongil which is open for breakfast through to dinner and is a place for locals and tourists as well. It has the Byron feel – it is ‘funky’ and arty but casual and simple and anyone can feel welcome there to have a coffee or a drink and a snack. There is no bottle shop there so it doesn’t have that alcohol focus. In the best of worlds the residents would have more input into development proposals – we would not just be presented with a plan and given token consultation rights. We would not have to accept the attitude that it’s the developer’s money so we can’t tell him/her what to put there. Obviously the imperative to make money is the main concern of developers but surely there can be still be a possibility of involving the other ‘stakeholders’ more, and from the beginning, and who

knows for sure that a ‘pub’ there will make more money than a more family-friendly venue? In the present proposal, situated only a few metres from houses and residents, there has been no consideration given to those people who bought into the area thinking they were buying into a peaceful bushy environment with a future resort development down the road which would have a ‘hub’ of commercial and cultural activities accessible to them. So this is a plea for a new way of handling development issues, and in the absence of that at least support for the recommendation of Council that the bottle shop be left out of the proposal, especially considering there is already one in IGA down the road.

Wouldn’t the multinational be making a decision based on the expanding population at the proposed Byron West development? And the Broken Head Road development at Suffolk Park for that matter. I know none of this helps to remedy, or even prevent, the situation but I am surprised that no-one seems to have pointed out these facts before now.

ing $2500 to $3500 a week, take into account that these are 50 to 60 hour weeks (you work out the hourly rate and see for yourself). Most of the profit is going to those who are directors of these mining companies and the larger shareholders. The bigger issue for me and one that’s being tested with coal-seam gas and the lock the gate campaign is one of property rights. Property ownership is fragile as the state owns the mineral rights. The state can issue a mining lease to a mining company, and if they find what they are looking for, increase their company’s wealth while making your property worth less. (Who would want to buy it now?) It’s worth remembering that ‘just terms’ compensation only applies to the commonwealth government; state governments can acquire land without giving any compensation. At least the Chinese and the companies buying our minerals are honest with their population that they exist under a communist socialist regime

in which almost everything is state owned. Australia looks pretty much the same to me, only our governments want us to believe the myth of democracy.

Property rights Australia is a lucky country, reaping the profits of a mineral and mining boom. Most of our mineral exports are being shipped to China. The financial rewards of this boom are apparently being shared among the whole population of our country. This is what our politicians want us to believe via the propaganda that comes from federal and state governments. Fact is some of us will reap a reward if we work in North West WA or in the mines of North Queensland. When you hear of men and women earn-

Butt out, Moreton How is it that The Greater Moreton Bay Council and the ABC’s JJJ are supporting the submissions by Splendour in The Grass to change The Major Events Policy in the LEP by Byron Shire Council. Such political support from from these organisations is disgraceful, as is Splendour’s insistence that it gets its own way by calling for submissions to Council from all and sundry, to alter the LEP to allow plans to create a multifunction mega entertainment venue at Yelgun. No doubt if they don’t get their way they will litigate again and again, at great cost to Council. To manage the needs of the Splendour proposal will cause great cost to our already underfunded and overstretched Council, police and emergency

Things done in Galileo’s name Despite my browser rating its trustworthiness as around zilch, I took up Duncan Shipley-Smith’s challenge (Letters, August 16) to find facts on the galileomovement website. I failed. I found lots of silly statements and plain lies, but no facts. Here are a few: (1) ‘carbon dioxide levels in the air are less than 0.04%.’ Yes, but 150 years ago it was about 280ppm and now it’s 390ppm; isotopic analysis shows the growth is due to human activity. (2) ‘IPCC states that carbon dioxide levels follow temperature rather than vice versa.’ The basics are simple – carbon dioxide traps heat, the more of it in the atmosphere, the hotter it gets. (3) ‘1998 was the warmest year, so global warming isn’t happening.’ Picking a single year out is meaningless. The ‘El Nino of the century’ warmed the planet

in 1998, but in 2007 when the cooling La Nina prevailed the world temperature equalled 1998. The last decade has been the hottest on record, including the three hottest years. The people from whom these ideas derive are cause for reflection. The professors Ball and Ridd specialise in geography and physics respectively; Ian Plimer and Bob Carter are geologists (Plimer also is a director of four mining companies and whose book on climate would take at least two books to correct); Maharosy is a biologist and Singer and Lindzen are frustrated ex-meteorologists on the fossil fuel payroll and with no credibility; Flint is the quintessential monarchist and Bolt is a PR flack for anyone right of Genghis Khan. Not a climate scientist amongst them. The joker in the pack is the barking so-

called Lord Monckton, whose degree in classical Greek and Latin must be invaluable in the interpretation of climate models. Trusting these people for climate advice makes as much sense as consulting a motor mechanic for a toothache. The really galling aspect of this caper is not just that arrogant ignoramuses think that they know better than the experts, but they use the name of respected scientists to cloak their misdeeds. Galileo would have recognised their tactics as derived from the medieval Vatican. Likewise the fakes in the Lavoisier Group. Fortunately the church has moved on. Check out the Vatican for a realistic appraisal of the mess we’re in and if you don’t want to help, get out of the way – this is bloody serious.

services. Festivals of 30,000 to 50,000 patrons, many housed on site, at regular monthly intervals will severely and negatively impact on residents from Brunswick Heads and Ocean Shores through to Tweed Shire.

Group they would tear down that building and rip up the parking lot and give us back that swampy, weed-infested paddock where my horse was born. Take away that almost too good footpath and bring back that clogged drain we had for years. Get rid of that smooth efficient roundabout and bring back the very dangerous intersection that was there. As for giving apples to

schools. Ha. Those apples should have been thrown in the garbage. Incidentally what has the Action Group given to anyone, other than cause for one to question the sanity of their members?

Q What Gareth Smith (Letters, August 16) seems incapable of grasping is that both he and Israel want a resolution to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Both he and Israel would like to see a State of Palestine established and thriving in peace and economic prosperity tomorrow morning. So what’s the problem? The problem is that Hamas has a genocidal worldview which is committed to Israel’s destruction. The problem is that the Palestinian leadership wants a state of Palestine to be recognised at the United Nations next month, yet is unwilling to recognise the legitimacy of the State of Israel. Why is Mr Smith so intent on finding fault with Israel, yet seemingly remains unfazed by the incalcitrance of the Palestinian leadership?

eMagazine online now www.yoursustainablecommunity.net

Chief Executive Officer NSW Jewish Board of Deputies Q Gareth Smith’s letter re Byron

Council harassment for speaking out on Palestinian human rights during the Writers’ Festival makes interesting reading. The quote from John Pilger’s website, however, is misleading. The quote is from Rami Elhanan, an Israeli graphic designer who lives in Jerusalem.

Rami’s father survived Auschwitz; his grandparents, six aunts and uncles perished in the Holocaust; and he lost his daughter to a suicide bomber. Despite – or in spite of – this history, Rami and his wife Nurit are founders of the Parent’s Circle or Bereaved Families Forum, bringing together Israeli and Palestinians who have lost loved ones in this tragic and senseless conflict. Pilger rightly speaks of them as ‘heroes’ of Israel and asks that we listen to them. It’s interesting that Rami uses the ‘H’ word to describe the silence of people in the West, especially Jews, to the blatant human rights abuses in Palestine. To quote him again: â€˜â€Ś they are no different from those who stood aside during the days of the Holocaust.’ If anyone has a right to use that word in talking about the human rights abuses in Palestine, Rami does. If anyone has a right to issue a call to bear witness to what is happening there, Rami does. Now let’s look at some figures: from 2000 to 2009, Israel killed at least 2,969 Palestinians who took no part in hostilities through its illegal military occupation of the Palestinian West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza Strip (source: www.weaponstoisreal.org).

There are many people of Israeli descent and Jewish ancestry living in Byron Shire and they have added colour and spice to the scene here. Some of these have blended into the rainbow community and see themselves as hippies, rastas and lovers of peace. My question to them is: how can you sleep in peace knowing that the country of your birth, the country you love, is murdering innocents in your name? To quote Rami again: ‘It’s only pressure from outside Israel – from Jews especially – that will end this nightmare.� Harsha Prabhu

Byron Bay Q I am calling on Zionists everywhere to come out of the closet and host affordable conferences (especially for the working classes, Muslims and dissident Jews and everyone else on the planet) in every capital city on planet Earth under the banner ‘Zionism equals Peace’. The onus is on you to prove this. Rather than have Chomsky and others slagged off as self-hating Jews, or anti-Semites, why don’t you conduct public meetings in town halls to accommodate thousands upon thousands to hear the case you so desperately must tell: Zionism equals Peace and in no way treats Palestinians as (1) not humans,

diminished humans, and (2) is not heading toward genocide? All I can infer from the silence of the Jewish community at large is (1) indifference, and (2) the possible need to get therapy for an inner sense of impotence reflected in the past indifference shown to those who survived the Holocaust but not in a manner that has been healthy for themselves or other human beings known to me as Palestinians. I suspect the silence has to do with a projection of past humiliation and disgust over the world’s silence over the Holocaust of six million Jews, projected onto a surrogate substitute, the Palestinians suspiciously labelled as ‘Amaleks’. (See the film 300 for a reality check.) How about it? Gareth Smith apparently offended Byron Shire Council and obviously Vic Alhadeff couldn’t possibly do that, because he is a CEO of the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies, meaning he speaks for all Jews – and Zionism– and so it’s up to you, Mr Alhadeff, to host the first ‘Zionism equals Peace’ conference open to the whole public, followed by your comrades in Melbourne, possibly in Melbourne Town Hall. After all, you aren’t hiding anything, are you? Danielle Haliczer

Articles Supporting bats is supporting humans (and horses and dogs) A statement from the annual conference of the Flying-fox Information and Conservation Network: We are a group of scientists, conservationists and wildlife carers with a common interest in the welfare and conservation of flying-foxes. We have families, and many of us are dog and horse owners, so we also have a strong interest in the health of people and domestic animals.

Health risks More than any other group in society we have an interest in any health risks associated with flying-foxes because we work very closely with them. If bats were a direct risk to human health, we would be at greatest risk. But wildlife carers and researchers do not become ill due to working with flyingfoxes. Our pets have not been affected. We urge people to take an evidence-based approach to health risks. It is safe for people to live near bat camps. We support the concept of

One Health, that the health of people, animals and ecosystems are linked and each is important.

Illegal dispersals We call on governments to uphold conservation laws and take action to protect bat camps against illegal dispersals and destruction. We congratulate the Queensland government on its recent actions to protect bat camps from illegal activities. Increasing the stress on bats is counterproductive.

The future of bats Flying-foxes are native wildlife of great value to the Australian environment and economy due to their pollination and seed dispersal of native trees. They are suffering great threats to their welfare and survival. We call on governments and citizens to stop further destruction of their habitat and take action to restore healthy and sustainable populations. Australians are blessed to be able to live among such wonderful creatures.

People with dementia ready to stand up Can taking part in standup comedy performances have therapeutic effects on people with dementia? A new and innovative Southern Cross University research project is investigating the link, in partnership with an aged-care provider and a comedian. Associate Professor John Stevens from the University’s School of Health and Human Services, Baptist Community Services NSW & ACT (BCS) and local comedian Mandy Nolan have received a $47,528 federal government Community Dementia grant to rollout the ‘Stand up for dementia: performance and humour as recreation and therapy’ project over the next six months as part of an ongoing dementia community service at the BCS Care Centre at Alstonville. Associate Professor John Stevens said the research would build on the results of a pilot program run in August last year that his wife, Mandy Nolan, facilitated. ‘After a few sessions we were seeing these participants with dementia becoming a cohesive social group laughing and enjoying each other’s company,’ said Professor Stevens. ‘But what was striking, individuals were starting to remember lines and routines from week to week. This is not expected from people with dementia. ‘One woman, in particular, with severe short-term memory problems, hadn’t spoken in two years. But relatives were gobsmacked when they came to the final performance concert to see her up on the stage performing and laughing.’ BCS community services manager Tarnya Daniels said her organisation was excited about the research partnership. ‘Baptist Community Services NSW & ACT is committed

to improving the lives of older Australians,’ said Ms Daniels. ‘We received overwhelming positive responses from clients, carers and family mem-

to memory again,’ said Professor Stevens. ‘Or perhaps it’s because we’re tapping into older memories of characters from when they were younger.

‘People with dementia are sometimes better than a group without dementia because the loss of inhibition is appropriate for the kind of exercises I do. The more uninhibited you are the better you’ll be.’ bers. Our clients were having a wonderful time filling the room with laughter and enjoying the role plays and feeling a sense of belonging within the group. We saw a therapeutic benefit not only for the clients but for carers as well.’ The project will seek to understand why performancebased humour activities have a therapeutic effect. ‘One theory is perhaps the laughter is reducing inflammation within the brain that allows pathways to open up

Whatever is happening the outcomes are extraordinary.’ Mandy Nolan teaches comedy to people of all ages, but she too was surprised by how well people with dementia responded. ‘People with dementia live in the moment so they’re very good at improvisation. I adapted the comedy routines to be theatre-sports based, using role plays and tapping into people’s history and life stories. Instantly everyone’s laughing and engaged,’ Ms Nolan said.

‘I think when you have dementia you spend a lot of time improvising in life because that’s how you survive. It’s actually their strongest skill. ‘They’re sometimes better than a group without dementia because the loss of inhibition is appropriate for the kind of exercises I do. The more uninhibited you are the better you’ll be.’ The funding allows for two eight-week workshops in standup comedy, improvisation and performance for people with mild to moderate dementia. The participants are existing community care clients of BCS and other service providers. At the same time, Ms Nolan is developing and delivering a train-the-trainers program for future facilitators of the ‘Stand up for dementia’ program. ‘The aim is for anyone with experience in working with people with dementia and a theatrical or performance background to take this respite care activity more widely into the community,’ she said.

LUCIE THORNE TIX We have a double pass to giveaway to see Lucie Thorne at Byron Brewery on Saturday. Email gigs@echo.net.au with subject header ‘Thorne Tix’.

SINGER-SONGWRITER LUCIE THORNE IS RIDING HIGH ON THE RELEASE OF HER LATEST ALBUM, WHICH IS BEING HERALDED AS HER BEST EVER. ON THE EVE OF HER BYRON SHOW, SEVEN CAUGHT UP FOR A CHAT. Lucie tell me a little about recording Bonfires in Silver City. I’d spent most of the last couple of years touring almost constantly (since the release of Black Across The Field‌ so these songs were pretty much all brewed on the road. And I spent a lot of that time thinking about how I wanted to make this next record‌ much more so than I’d given thought to an album before. And yet I’ve never spent a short amount actually making an album, as with this one. Most of it was tracked live with Hamish Stuart (drums) over three days in April at Sydney’s Megaphon Studio with Shane Fahey. Dave Symes (bass) joined us there for a day too, and then over the next few weeks our guest players recorded their various bits ’n’ pieces – Chris Abrahams, Carl Dewhurst, Jo Jo Smith‌ and then I did my usual trick of taking these sessions home to potter around the edges of it all, before mixing back in Sydney with Shane in May‌ Reviewers are saying this is the best of your six albums‌ what do you think? Well‌ I reckon you probably always like your newest work the most‌ but yeah, I do feel like this is the best work I’ve done. It feels like I really kinda hit my stride in the making of this one‌ and I was much clearer in my approach, and in the way I imagined the album sounding as a whole, than I’ve ever been before. Feels to me like I’m starting to really get the hang of this rekkid-making thing‌

Come Back Home – John Fahey, and Jo Jo Smith singing Storm Warning‌ Your guitar work isn’t the usual soft paddling of singer-songwriters; it’s sometimes much more intense. Do you consider it another voice in the song? More and more so. The lovely Loretta (1966 Guild Starfire) is my constant companion these days, and I do love the scope of electric guitars‌ in terms of the tonal palette‌ the dynamic range‌ and all the space you can leave‌ What was the defining moment for you in the recording of your last album; did you know where you were going or was it a bigger process? I had a pretty clear map of this album in my head before we started recording it‌ but‌ there are always plenty of surprises that come up along the way. On our first day in the studio, listening back to the first take of the first song Falling, and this is the take we kept, and is the opening track of Bonfires with Hamish and Shane‌ I remember a kinda curious combination of feeling really excited and quietly very sure, at the same time. Which is a pretty good sign, I reckon. And then by the time we were mixing it, there was a very convincing ‘you know what‌ I really don’t give a fuck what anyone else reckons‌ I reckon we’ve made a little beauty here‌’ What should we expect for your Byron shows? On this tour I’m playing duet shows with the one ’n’ only Hamish Stuart – and in Byron we’re blessed with a couple of my favourite local treasures to open the show – Jimmy Dowling and Ilona Harker – which will be a real treat for all of us. Hame and I will of course be playing lots from the new album‌ but we’ll also be dipping in to the back catalogue here and there‌

What are your all-time favourite songs? Oh man, where to start?! How long can the list be? Right now‌ to name only a few right now I’d have to say Slow Train – Bob Catch Lucie Thorne at the Byron Buddha Bar on Friday at 8pm. Tix are $16 Dylan, Amelia – Joni Mitchell, Menina Mulher da Pele Preta – Jorge Ben, Tell Her To presale or $20 at the door. Go to www.mullummusic.com.

QUESTION TIME Mandy Nolan

I have a terrible confession. I’m not a yoga fan. Yoga makes me feel agitated, which is kind of counterproductive because it’s supposed to be relaxing. I’ll be halfway through a pose and I’ll suddenly realise that I’m not wearing the right outfit. It’s hard to get spiritual in a Kmart tracksuit. It’s even harder to let go when during the entire class you’re consumed with envy, watching long slim bendy legs go behind ears. Legs not in polyester like mine, but bathed in pastel and beige, with stretch cotton wraps made from sand and recycled egg shells. It’s so natural, so truly good, it makes me feel like having a cigarette. Right in the middle of a pose. While everyone’s cracking a Half Moon or a Cow Face, I’ll be blowing smoke rings out my base chakra. They do serene; I do obscene. I seem too big and boisterous for yoga. Yoga is quiet and deep while I’m loud and shallow. Yoga is the only exercise that can claim to be part of a spiritual practice. (Oh, except football.) No-one’s experienced enlightenment in an aerobics class (unless the lycra g-string cuts too high during a lunge). There’s no higher self in jazz-ercise, zumba or pump class. Just a sweaty pig who’s let herself go.

In my opinion, yoga just takes itself too seriously. All that breathing from the bunda makes me nervous, especially when I’ve been in a class, forgotten and accidentally breathed out my bunda instead of in. The funny thing about yoga is that while it’s incredibly right on, it’s still a victim of fashion. While the philosophy remains the same – that mind, body and spirit are all one and cannot be clearly separated. (Although I’m not sure that’s entirely true. If my body were in the same shape as my mind, I’d be strutting around with the body of Elle McPherson. Instead I’m getting around looking more like Magda.) While built on traditions, yoga can be a tad faddy. The Bikram craze had me gasping. You’ve got to be kidding; a room full of sweaty benders with only a crystal rock for protection. Imagine the BO! But is Bikram actually environmentally unsound? Should we be heating a room? In the future we won’t be needing to heat the room to 40 degrees; in a few years from now, thanks to global warming, just the act of bending to put the washing out will become a form of hot yoga, providing you peg on the exhalation. One would think that we’d seen every yoga fusion Guthrie and granddaughter of Woody, Cathy Guthrie, teams up with Amy Nelson (Willie’s daughter) in Folk Uke – again at the Civic Hall on Wednesday 2nd November. Check out these shows and the incredible program that is lining up for Mullum Music Fest this year. Tix and line-ups at www. mullummusic.com.

Early Birds for weekend with Stranger Cole, King Tide and The Strides

Next year, the legendary Stranger Cole will celebrate 50 years as a recording artist. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, Stranger Cole began his career in the early sixties and is one of the pioneers of reggae music as we know it today. ARIA award nominees King Tide are veritable Australian reggae royalty, headlining festivals and playing shows around the country. This September 17 and 18 music lovers will have an opportunity to see these two join forces. King Tide will play their full set before Stranger Cole joins them on stage for his own set with the King Tide band backing and front man Tony Hughes providing harmonising vocals. And if that’s not enough, the horn section from ten-piece Sydney band The Strides will also be part of Stranger Cole’s set, making this three-way collaboration a moment that will go down in reggae history. Reggaefest Roots and Culture Music Festival has announced an extension of Early Bird prices. 200 tickets have been allocated for an extended Early Bird special that ends on Monday or until sold out.

possible (Laughter Yoga, our locally created Yogalates‌ although my yoga, Chardyoga, didn’t take off. That’s where you perform yoga after two bottles of a dry white.) Well, my yoga nuts, prepare yourselves, there’s a brand new yoga taking the US by storm: upside-down yoga. Yep. It’s called AntiGravity Yoga and it’s performed in a bloody hammock! Personally I can’t even manage to sit in a hammock let alone crack a yoga pose. While still a university student I once tried to have sex in a hammock and ended up with a nasty gash. Upside-down Yoga! I reckon the guy was pissed, fell in a hammock and his wife has posted a few of his drunken poses on Facebook. Next thing you know half of America are hanging out just like him. Doing Yoga upside-down changes everything: down face dog becomes upface dog; salute to the sun‌ salute to the sewer? And the child pose? Well that becomes too bloody dangerous for words. I can’t wait to see the classes, with health and safety regulations; this may be the only yoga where you need to wear a helmet! And if I were to be pedantic, it’s not anti-gravity. It’s silly upsidey-downey yoga. Real antigravity yoga can only take place in outer space. Moon Yoga.

As the much-hyped lead single to Shockone’s forthcoming debut album Crucify Me Parts I & II hit the airwaves last June, it picked up high rotation on Triple J, and over 500,000 plays on YouTube in a matter of weeks; it wasn’t long before the Shockone – aka Karl Thomas – buzz was heralded as one of the major talents in bass music worldwide today. Having taken out ‘best tune of the year’ at the Perth dance music awards four years in a row, ‘best drum and bass DJ’ three years in a row and ‘best producer’ three years in a row, Shockone’s heavily anticipated debut long-player is set for release early 2012. A second single from the album will drop this October. La La Land on Thursday.

Ash Grunwald at the Beach Ash Grunwald’s fifth studio album, Hot Mama Vibes, is the most primal concoction of elemental junkyard soul to stomp through your speakers this year. ‘Mixing electronica with the blues was always a dream of mine,’ says Ash, now a 10-year veteran of live stages from Byron Bay to the Montreux Jazz Festival. In fact, the track Hot Mama has been swirling around the Melbourne singer-songwriter’s head since before he laid his career foundations with his award-winning stomp-box debut of 2002, Introducing Ash Grunwald. ‘With this album I think I’ve finally proven, to myself anyway, that it doesn’t make any difference what techniques and instruments are used to make it – as long as it comes from the heart.’ Thursday at the Beach Hotel: and it’s free! 8.30pm.

Ha Ha for Harley Harley Breen is one of the country’s hardest-working and best-respected standup comedy performers. A regular MC and headliner on the Australian scene, Harley is also familiar to comedy circuits in Edinburgh, London and South-East Asia and festivals such as Edinburgh, Adelaide and Melbourne Comedy and Fringe festivals where he works with international and national talent such as Steven K Amos, Fiona O’Loughlin and Wil Anderson. A Melbourne Comedy Festival favourite, Harley has just launched his fifth full solo show for the

www.echo.net.au

festival I Heart Bunnings.

George town

Byron local George ‘the Comic Volcano’ Smilovici’s Lavas of Laughter nationwide tour is about to begin, erupting with shows in Mullumbimby Civic Hall on Thursday and Lismore City Hall on Saturday. George is famed for ousting Stevie Wonder’s I just Called to Say I love You from the number-one spot holding number one with his monologue I’m So Tuff in Australia, NZ and America for seven weeks!

picky mistress who won’t sweep unpalatable realities under the rug. Charm is less important than being genuine this week, so repair anything that may have gone astray in your relationship to your own integrity and authenticity. L SCORPIO: Scorpios are naturally attracted to the road less traveled, but why make things harder when they’re already pretty punishing? You’re a water sign, so consider how liquid takes the path of least resistance and follow its lead to smooth the sharper edges of this week’s prickly interactions. M SAGITTARIUS: It takes zero talent to be complex and complicated, but few besides Sagittarians can manage the opposite. If others are demanding, with urgent needs that infringe or impinge on this week, summon up one of your personal astropowers: straightforwardness. With tact and consideration, naturally. N CAPRICORN: This disappointing week for personal and professional connections could activate your cynical Saturnian side which views the glass bone-dry with no refills in sight. Don’t go there. Or if you can’t help going there, don’t linger. Change your focus and help is all around you. O AQUARIUS: Aquarians can doggedly maintain an idea (or ideal) for eons, but once they decide something’s holding them back no-one moves faster. If that happens this week, remember we’re all still dependent on everything and everyone, on things we aren’t even aware of and may never know anything about. P P ISCES: The enemy of vagueness and procrastination, this week’s about structure, form, boundaries, plan management, productive action, practical applications and service. It’s for making an honest inventory of what you have to offer and assessing which particular outdated ideas need to hit the out tray.

Cowboys And Aliens

Just before the obligatory Armageddon that brings to a close this chuckwagon of tripe, the pretty heroine, who a few scenes earlier had emerged from a fire in the nude (shucks – you only see her from behind) tells Jack Lonergan (Daniel Craig, besotted with himself since he got the Bond gig) that ‘you’ve got to stop thinking’. If only they’d emblazoned those words on the glossy poster… I probably stress it too much, but whenever you see in the credits of a movie that eight

writers are responsible for its script then you can usually bet on the end result making about as much sense as a packapoo ticket. Not that there is anything uninteresting about the idea of the alien from outer space lobbing in unexpected locations – ‘Paul’ and ‘Super 8’ are both fab recent examples of what might be achieved with such a theme when it is underpinned by an idea that is more developed than director Jon Favreau’s fevered desire to squeeze as much flash animatronics and high-camp violence into what he would present, with zilch credibility, as witty cross-genre innovation. The

monster from the black lagoon, super-hero comics, spaghetti westerns (as well as a shot suggesting an homage to John Ford’s classic The Searchers that would make the great man turn in his grave), Butch and Sundance and the Hole in the Wall gang – they and scores of other references are all thrown higgledy-piggledy into the mix, as well as repeated, quick flashbacks that I couldn’t figure out at all. One minute the aliens, who have hands coming out of their stomachs, are impervious to anything that the cowboys throw at them, the next they are being brought down by the Chiricahua’s spears… then there is the moment in battle when the mean rancher saves the Indian chief’s life and they do that silent, blokey nod to each other… And who can possibly know what possessed Harrison Ford to so demean himself? Mercy! This is spectacularly awful. ~ John Campbell

Win Win ‘What good is it for a man to gain the world yet lose his soul?’ Mike (Paul Giamatti) is a New Jersey lawyer whose practice is on the slide. To supplement his income with a government allowance, he volunteers to be the guardian of Leo (Burt Young), an elderly client in the early stages of dementia. But he doesn’t fulfil his duty of care, instead letting Leo be shunted off against his will to a nursing home. Complications arise when Kyle (Alex Shaffer), Leo’s troubled grandson, arrives from Ohio after running away from LATEST IN DIGITAL SURROUND SOUND

RED DOG

his druggie mother. Mike’s passion is the school GrecoRoman wrestling team that he coaches (The Blind Side raised its saccharine head but was soon dismissed) with little success. Their fortunes take a turn for the better when Kyle joins them and the sport, as it invariably does, becomes a metaphor for Mike’s travails – and if Kyle’s unexpected prowess in it is a wild coincidence, writer/director Thomas McCarthy sells it with consummate ease. As he did in The Station Agent (2003), and almost without your noticing, McCarthy quietly creates a wholly absorbing story from the most mundane components and unassuming characters – bald, podgy Mike wears daggy jumpers, smokes secret ciggies and is neglectful of daily chores; unmotivated Kyle speaks in the typical teenager’s monotone; Paul’s wife Jackie (the wonderful Amy Ryan) has her hands full with two little daughters. For comic relief, Bobby Cannavale reprises his ‘Agent’ role as Terry, Paul’s cuckolded best mate who finds an outlet for his garrulous energy in supporting the boys’ improving performances. An unforeseen crisis – the crux of the matter, it forces Paul to own up to himself – comes with the appearance of Kyle’s mum, Cindy. It strikes a slightly jarring note, because she is played by Melanie Lynskey, the Kiwi actress immediately (and for me, too strongly) identified as the loopy girl who jumped Charlie’s verandah in Two and a Half Men. But it’s hardly enough to spoil a film that is disarming, elevating and ruefully funny. ~ John Campbell

Sports freaks are well catered for with the IAAF World Athletics Championships (SBS2) and the Bledisloe Cup (NBN) but Sabbathophiles will be tuned into Classic Albums: Black Sabbath Paranoid (SBS1, Saturday, 10.20pm). ‘People think I’m insane because I am frowning all the time’. That’s not the only reason, Ozzy. 3. Keri Russell is sweet as pie in the poignant, engaging comedy Waitress (Eleven, Sunday, 8.30pm).

The real facts about the Government’s carbon pricing

Phone: 1300 720 675

Message from Justine Scientific evidence has confirmed our planet is warming. And after years of debate and deliberation, most Australians agree the time to act is now. Australians want to do the right thing by the environment. We are a confident, creative nation that’s up to the challenges of tackling climate change.

Big polluters will pay not families The carbon price will be paid by around 500 of the biggest polluters in Australia. It is not a tax on ordinary Australians. Polluters will pay for the pollution they are causing.

All the money raised will go to jobs, households and building a clean energy future The Government’s tax cuts and increased payments are targeted at those who need them most. The Government will stand up for pensioners, low and middle-income earners and families doing it tough. 9 out of 10 households will get a combination of tax cuts and increased payments.

Carbon pricing will cut pollution and drive investment in clean energy The Gillard Government’s plan will cut carbon pollution and drive investment in clean energy technologies and infrastructure like solar, gas and wind. It will help build the clean energy future Australians deserve. And it won’t just help us – it will help our children and our grand children. It will cut 160 million tonnes of pollution – the equivalent of taking 45 million cars off our roads.

The rest of the world is acting The rest of the world is acting and Australia can’t afford to remain a big polluter in the low pollution world of tomorrow.

That’s why the Federal Government is implementing a comprehensive plan for a clean energy future for our nation. Under this plan, Australia will cut at least 160 million tonnes a year of carbon pollution from our atmosphere in 2020. That is the equivalent of taking over 45 million cars off the road. Australia’s biggest polluters, not households, pay the carbon price. The revenue raised will support investment in renewable energy, protect jobs and help households with tax cuts and increased payments. Taxpayers in Richmond earning $80,000 or less will all get a tax cut, most will get at least $300 per year. Carbon pricing is a reform we need to keep our economy competitive, to protect our environment and do the right thing for our children and future generations. Yours sincerely,

Household assistance for Richmond

<echowebsection=Justine Elliot MP>

JUSTINE ELLIOT MP

FEDERAL MEMBER FOR RICHMOND

Delivering a clean energy futur Supporting low income households Through tax cuts and increases to Government payments, all low income households will be provided assistance that covers at least 100 per cent of their expected average impact of the introduction of the carbon price. Many will be better off. Some low-income households might not receive enough assistance through tax cuts or Government payments to offset their average expected cost impact under a carbon price. These households will be able to claim the new $300 annual Low Income Supplement to ensure they receive enough assistance as they adjust to changes in their costs of living after the carbon price is introduced.

Small business Small businesses will not be required to pay a carbon price. Small businesses will not have to count or monitor their carbon pollution or electricity use. They will not have to fill in a single form as part of the carbon price reform. The impact of a carbon price on small business will vary and most small businesses will not be significantly affected. Small business will see benefits flow from an increase to the small business instant asset write-off thresholds to $6,500. This boost to the threshold will help increase cash flow, which assists growth and investment in new assets, some of which could be more energy efficient.

Tax reform The Government will provide an $8 billion tax reform package, including $7 billion of tax cuts, from 1 July 2012 targeted at low and middle-income earners. Around 60 per cent of all taxpayers will get a tax cut of at least $300 from 1 July 2012. Every taxpayer up to $80,000 will get a tax cut, and no one will pay more tax. The tax cuts will be delivered through major structural reform that increases the tax free threshold from $6,000 to $18,200. This means over one million more Australians will no longer need to fill in a tax return.

Carers and people with a disability More than one million Australians with disability and carers will receive household assistance through their Disability Support Pension or Carer Payment. This will cover at least the expected average increase in living costs that results from the introduction of a carbon price.

People with essential medical equipment needs People holding a Commonwealth concession card who have high home energy costs because they rely on essential medical equipment will also be able to claim the Essential Medical Equipment Payment of $140 through Centrelink. This is in addition to their other assistance. This extra payment is to make sure they to not face extra costs for using their medical equipment under the carbon price.

re for Australia Tax Cut ($)

Support for working Australians Around 86 per cent of tax payers in Richmond will receive tax cuts with the vast majority receiving a tax cut of at least $300. The tax cut will be permanent. From 2015-16, further permanent tax cuts will provide assistance for a floating carbon price to at least the end of the decade.

Students and job seekers Self-funded retirees Senior Australians who are self-funded retirees and hold a Commonwealth Seniors Health Card will receive an additional payment with their Seniors Supplement. This will be worth $338 for singles and $255 for each eligible member of a couple.

To assist students with the expected impact of carbon pricing on their cost of living, student allowances such as Youth Allowance, Austudy and Abstudy will increase by an amount equal to 1.7 per cent of the maximum rate. Students in part-time work and jobseekers who find a job will also receive tax cuts. A person earning $25,000 per year will get a tax cut of around $523 per year from 1 July 2012.

In addition, self-funded retirees may also be eligible for tax cuts.

Pensioners to receive advance payment More than 3 million Australian pensioners will receive household assistance to help them with increased living costs as a result of the introduction of a carbon price. Pensioners will receive assistance through a Clean Energy Advance and a Clean Energy Supplement connected to their pension. Part-rate pensioners who pay tax may also be eligible for tax assistance. The Clean Energy Advance will be paid as an up-front and tax exempt lump sum payment of up to $250 for a single and $190 for each eligible member of a couple. This payment will be provided to pensioners in May-June 2012 to help meet additional costs for the nine months from 1 July 2012 to when the first instalment of the new Clean Energy Supplement is paid from March 2013.

Household assistance for Richmond What Richmond residents can expect Working together for a clean energy future The science is clear – our planet is warming We know that the warming is changing our climate: causing sea levels to rise; meaning that there will be more days of extreme heat; meaning that we are at risk of more bushfires and droughts; meaning that great icons like the Great Barrier Reef are at risk. That warming is caused by carbon pollution, by human activity, and we need to cut carbon pollution.

More than 29,900 pensioners in Richmond will receive an extra $338 extra per year if they are single and up to $510 per year for couples combined, in their pension payments. More than 12,700 families in Richmond will receive household assistance (up to $110 per eligible child for families receiving the Family Tax Benefit A and up to $69 per year in assistance for families receiving the Family Tax Benefit B). More than 2100 self-funded retirees in Richmond will receive an extra $338 per year in assistance for singles and up to $510 per year for couples combined.

More than 6600 Jobseekers in Richmond will get up to $218 extra per year for singles and $390 per year for couples combined. More than 2900 single parents in Richmond will get an extra $289 per year. More than 3,200 students in Richmond will get up to $177 extra per year. The amount they get will depend on their rate and type of payment. In total, more than 51,600 people in Richmond will receive household assistance through the transfer system. On top of this, taxpayers in Richmond with annual income of under $80,000 will all get a tax cut, with most receiving at least $300 per year.

The Gillard Government is taking action to tackle climate change by putting a price on pollution and assisting business and house holds transition to a clean energy future. “I’m proud to be part of a government that is taking action to tackle climate change and build Australia’s clean energy future,” Justine Elliot said. “The carbon price is not a tax on households — around 500 of the biggest polluters in Australia will be required to pay for their pollution under the carbon pricing mechanism.” “And every dollar raised will go to support jobs, households and to invest in clean energy and climate change programs.” “Nine out of 10 households will receive assistance through a combination of tax cuts, higher family payments and increases in pensions and benefits.”

Blood Bones & Butter The memoir of Gabrielle Hamilton

Victoria Cosford

When Gabrielle Hamilton opened her tiny restaurant in New York twelve years ago, she had no idea what she was embarking upon. Not only had she never owned a restaurant before but neither had she ever been the chef, or even the sous-chef, of one. A decade later, she was named New York’s Best Chef. Her restaurant Prune was described by food critic Frank Bruni as a ‘formidable influence, a small restaurant with a large footprint… widely and fervently loved’.

Gabrielle did her writing course and in the process realised that she loved cooking more: it was something ‘so manageable and tactile and useful’ unlike ‘certain literary pursuits Prune was Gabrielle’s family nickname when she (such as) illuminating the fog surrounding the human condition.’ The 30-seat restaurant she was young, growing up in New Jersey in a castle opened, after two decades of working in some ‘built into the burnt-out ruins of a nineteenthcentury silk mill’ to parents who threw legendary capacity or another with food, was conceived as a platform from which she could reproduce, parties. This is how her memoir begins.

Reading a Prune menu on line I see dishes an uncompromising work ethic, whose endless like roasted marrow bones with parsley salad, jottings in notebooks inspired her to enrol in a braised dandelions with mastic and feta, calvados writing course at Michigan University, and who omelette – and long, as usual, for New York New unapologetically offers herself up warts and all with just the right doses of humility so that she is York. impossible to dislike. Gabrielle Hamilton will, however, be in Australia On the contrary, how can you not love someone in early October for the Sydney International Food Festival (SIFF), as part of the World Chef who writes like this? ‘Then the sun started to set and we lit the paper-bag luminaria, which burned Showcase (October 1 and 2). She is appearing both those days and will, I imagine, be utterly soft glowing amber, punctuating the meadow watchable, as is her memoir, published by Chatto and the night, and the lamb was crisp-skinned & Windus, utterly readable. and sticky from slow roasting, and the root beer

competition this year for the Brunswick Valley and particularly for coach Matthew Perry without whom, Vincent says, he would only be still playing club football. ‘I also want the Moonshiners to have a strong U19s next year’. Vincent says that rugby can take you anywhere. ‘I have been to Fiji this year and all over over country NSW and probably played about ten games in Sydney. Next year I tour South Africa with Country Schools team at Easter. Brunswick Valley players Blake Hawkins, Kurt McDonald and Jack Williams will also be going to South Africa. I really want to play rugby but not Otago NZ – The home of Matt Perry!’ A fundraiser was held at the Billinudgel Hotel on Saturday night to help the four lads get to South Africa. The evening raised $2240, but there is still elite players on the plane. Any- out with a donation can email: a long way to go to get these one wanting to help the boys david.harman@tursa.com.au.

Australian prison system has been named Southern Cross University’s 2011 Outstanding Alumnus of the Year. Kathy Mokaraka, who graduated with a Master of Indigenous Studies in 2008, received her award from Chancellor The Hon John Dowd AO QC and Vice-Chancellor Professor Peter Lee. The winner of the 2011 Outstanding Young Alumnus of the Year is Tanya Camplin, a tourism graduate who went on to become a local government councillor at the age of 23. The awards, presented at a ceremony in Bangalow, highlight the significant achievements Southern Cross University graduates are making in a diverse range of fields, both in Australia and internationally. Nine nominees were in the running for the Outstanding Alumnus of the Year award, with three nominees for the Young Alumnus of the Year. Also presented on the night were School Alumnus of the Year awards. Kathy Mokaraka is working with the Ruah Community Services in Western Australia’s Department of Health. Kathy, who said she came to Southern Cross University because of the work of Professor Judy Atkinson (who has since retired), develops and facilitates healing therapies for Aboriginal women, both in prison and in the wider community.

Her first job was as a receptionist in an Aboriginal mental health service in Western Australia’s Kimberley district where she noticed most patients were either medicated or flown to a Perth hospital 2000 kilometres away – often institutionalised for years. She found herself unexpectedly in the role of unofficial counsellor and realised that healing and recovery for Aboriginal people needed to relate to having their story heard and acknowledged. She applied herself to studying Aboriginal mental health and welfare, while working in remote Aboriginal communities over many years, and writing courses for Aboriginal health workers before undertaking her Master of Indigenous Studies at SCU. The recipient of the Outstanding Young Alumnus of the Year, Tanya Camplin, graduated with a Bachelor of Business in Tourism in 2001. After finishing her degree, Tanya returned to her home town of Wangaratta in Victoria and was elected to the local council at the age of 23. She was a councillor for six years, acting as Mayor on several occasions. She has been highly active in her local community and now works for the

‘I am very honoured to be nominated and win this prestigious award. I really enjoyed my time at the uni – I lived on campus and made some wonderful friendships with people who are now spread all over the country and overseas,’ Tanya said. ‘I got to choose a lot of subjects, which allowed me to follow my strengths.’ Among the guests at the event were the 2010 Outstanding Alumnus of the Year, Gordon Fraser-Quick, and the 2010 Young Alumnus of the Year, rugby league star Steve Price, who both spoke about their careers and the difference a qualification from Southern Cross University had made in their lives. ‘SCU has given me the courage to think outside the square. One of the proudest achievements in my life has been the Alumnus of the Year award. It’s my sincere wish to have a long engagement with the community of Southern Cross University,’ Gordon said.

Winners The School Alumnus of the Year winners are: School of Education – Erwin Bates graduated with a Bachelor of Education (Primary) in 1997 and is the Principal Liaison Officer, Learning Management and Business Reform, NSW Department of Education.

Book Review/Pin This Up

Fixing the illiterate economics of relentless growth of prosperity’ within ‘oceans of poverty’. There is evidence that rising national GDP figures enable citizens to flourish better; being at the top of the social pile does give benefits of health and happiness. But there is much data showing that growth of GDP per capita above $15,000 (in 2005 dollars) does not yield the population at large significant benefits. Recent work in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) shows that ‘Inequality has damaging impacts across the nation as a whole’. There is an underlying theme throughout the book that the world needs greater equality – for social cohesion, to make fairer use of its resources, to give everyone a chance ‘to flourish’, to enjoy their talents and op-

portunities within the ecological limits available. Prof Jackson’s study calls for major changes. Summarising he writes, ‘In the first place we need to establish ecological bounds on human activity. Secondly there is an urgent need to fix the illiterate economics of relentless growth. Finally, we must transform the damaging social logic of consumerism’. They comprise a daunting agenda demanding action from all sectors of society. This is the ‘must read’ chapter.

Capitalism The economic model to which Jackson refers is, of course, capitalism and he is obliged to devote several pages to the question, Is this the end of capitalism?

MOTHERS IN MUSIC

WORKSHOP

There are several observations that may well ‘frighten the horses’! The need to… increase public control over money supply, the need for more public ownership to yield necessary infrastructure for people to ‘flourish’, stronger regulation… the commercial media. ‘The capitalist model has no easy route to a steady state position. Its natural dynamics push it towards… expansion or collapse’. The observations ‘A capitalist economy runs on debt’ and ‘A fundamental principle of capitalism is that these liabilities (aka financial debts) attract interest over time’ are of particular interest if you have read anything about usury – the charging of interest on loans. Many argue that interest can never be repaid save by pushing others to take out other interest-bearing loans – or ‘losing their shirt’, maybe bankruptcy. Increasing global indebtedness and ‘shirt losses’ seem to confirm this. Jackson does not go down this path.

Different systems Jackson points out that capitalism exhibits varying characteristics under various circumstances – even nationalising banks when it suits! But

economic growth and minimal regulation of commerce are accepted features of a ‘good’ capitalistic economy. He asserts that investment in capital assets will remain ‘critically important’ but systems will be very different from the way capital markets work today. And is it ‘The End? It might remain as capitalism, ‘But not as we know it’ he quotes.

Conclusion What you take from a timely read of this provocative book will depend on your optimism versus your pessimism Jackson makes a plausible case for the possibility encapsulated by the title. He writes, ‘For the advanced economies of the western world, prosperity without growth is no longer a utopian dream. It is a financial and ecological necessity.’ But the case rests on fundamental changes in us humans – our behaviour, and value systems – and there is the rub. Q Professor Tim Jackson is Economics Commissioner on the Sustainable Development Commission – an independent advisory body to the UK government. He is also ‘Professor of Sustainable Development’ at the University of Surrey.

Shake off the winter blues and sell Online Australian real estate agent, www.forsaleforlease. com.au, is urging all potential vendors to shake off the winter blues and follow some easy strategies to get their properties ready for the Spring-selling onslaught. According to Michael Atwell, founder of ForSaleFor-

Property In Focus p50

Auctions & Inspections p51

Lease.com.au, Spring is usually the most optimum time to sell a home as the largest numbers of buyers are actively searching for a new home between September and November. Vendors come out in full force in the Spring season, eager to tempt enthusiastic buyers, who have held back during the colder months. With the lacklustre winter real estate season nearly over, sellers may easily improve their chances in selling their house more effectively by simply outshining the flood of list-

ings that appear in the Springtime market: Spring clean, literally. Tidy and de-clutter your home is the number one priority. As obvious as this tip is, a spotless, fresh-looking house is much more attractive than presenting a house filled with monthold newspapers, dusty benches and dirty windows. Make your property look its best. If you can’t do it yourself, hire a cleaner for half a day. Clean floors, windows and mirrors – Make all these shine and twinkle.

Have f lowers ar range d throughout the room – get buyers excited about Spring by showcasing the season inside your home. Clean up outside and create street appeal. This includes mowing the lawn, raking leaves, cutting back bushes, removing cobwebs and check if outside lights are working Take quality and powerful photographs for the relevant real estate sites. Use a wide angle lens and shoot external shots in the evening. Wet tiles and driveways before taking the

shot for maximum effect Towels and manchester need to be perfect – showcase the house at its finest. Most houses are overfurnished so remove some of the furniture to make rooms more spacious.

At the same time, try not to sell a home without any furniture. Hire furniture if need be. Pets are a no-no. Pet smells inside the home is not a selling point, so keep pets away from open inspections if possible.
