CAB AUDIT

Compliance blitz hits SGB resident The homeowner of a South Golden Beach property, along with another person related to the property, have been fined a whopping $9000 over an unapproved house extension. Byron Shire Council submitted to the Mullumbimby local court last Thursday that the property owner did not comply with an order to cease use of the downstairs area for habitation. Council’s governance manger Ralph James said that despite several requests from Council, the property owner had not taken any reasonable steps over the past two years to get the downstairs development approved or cease use of the area. ‘Of concern was the fact that the house was located in an area that is subject to flooding.’ Mr James said the property owners failed to appear in court in December last year and the matter was stood over to January 12, 2012. He said the defendants did not attend court again, however submitted a written argument. The court dismissed the defendants’ argument that they did not have to submit to the jurisdiction of the court, or council.

No job losses for Byron Centrelink Hans Lovejoy

Contrary to other media reports, Byron Bay’s Centrelink offices will not lose its existing face-to-face services, according to the federal Department of Human Services. The department confirmed with The Echo its plans to refurbish the Byron Street centre in the coming months; this will include a doubling of the number of self-service computers.

More customers

All aboard for the Great Gondos! Daniel Oldaker and Rani Huszar arrived in town by ghost train this week for their upcoming shows. Their unbelievable body-bending, absurd acrobatics and feats of funniness can be witnessed at their two shows at the Byron Community Centre on January 20. It’s a combination of the finest routines they developed while touring the world for the last ten years. Photo Jeff ‘Bending Minds In Public Since 1986’ Dawson

Zone leader Brian Small said it was the result of ‘the increasing number of Byron Bay customers,’ and that ‘No jobs will be lost as a result of this refurbishment’. He also spruiked the advantage of more computers. ‘Self-service allows customers to conduct a wide range of business on line or over the phone. ‘For example lodging a claim, reporting employment income, claiming an advance payment, completing rent reviews, updating personal details, or requesting documentation.’ A specific date for the refurbishment is yet to be confirmed.

Animal activists have ‘facts wrong’: rodeo management Simeon Michaels

Activists from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) Australia protested outside the Byron Bay Rodeo on Thursday night holding signs that read, ‘Byron Bay: Buck the Rodeo’ and ‘Nobody likes an 8 second ride.’ According to Des Bellamy, local activist for PETA, bulls and broncos are terrorised into action. ‘Flank straps are either tied to their genitals or they place a burr underneath them’, he says. However, Ian Bostock, co-owner of the Rodeo, says that PETA has never taken the trouble to speak with him personally and have their facts wrong. ‘We don’t use cattle prods, the flank strap is a soft rope, no burrs, and it’s round their abdomen, not

their genitals. If something’s wound tight around your goolies you won’t be bucking, you’ll be pleading. Bulls are no different.’ Bostock’s rodeo also shies from calf-roping contests. Mr Bellamy told The Echo, however, he did contact rodeo management. ‘During the protest I spoke at some length to Kerry Hall, who I gathered was a part-owner – the company is called Hall Rodeo – and he offered to give me a tour of the rodeo. This included the “backstage” area where the chutes hold the animals. Mr Hall had generously instructed security to let me in at no cost. He agreed that what we said about rodeos had been true 20 years ago, but that the rodeo associations had cleaned up their act. He also agreed that this was largely the result of pressure from animal organisations, particularly the RSPCA in Australia, of

which he said he is an inspector!’ Meanwhile, Mr Bostock agreed that animals are occasionally hurt, but ‘it’s nothing compared to what they do to each other in the paddock.’ It is also nothing compared to what they do to the cowboys, with a fatality and several hospitalisations in recent years. Bostock also points out that his animals are purchased from the slaughterhouse. ‘These are horses that no-one can ride because they like to buck, and cross-bred bulls no good for stud. We do around 30 rodeos from Byron up to Gympie, and we rotate our stock so that animals are taken to 15–20 a year. ‘They come out into the arena, buck for eight seconds, then go back to the paddock. Yes, they work for their living, but there’s no cruelty.’ The animals at this particular ro-

deo appeared well fed and cared for. However, PETA believes that any level of animal suffering is unjustifiable given that the rodeo serves no purpose other than entertainment. ‘There’s nothing brave or heroic about animal abuse, and that’s all the rodeo is,’ says PETA, but Bostock disputes the claim.

Stockmanship heritage ‘Stockmanship is part of our heritage and I’m determined to keep it alive. Most horses will try to buck their rider at some stage and if the rider can’t handle it, then that horse gets given up on. We need people who have the skills to ride those horses. ‘Also, outback stations are short of riders. These days people just want to ride motorbikes, but mustering on horseback keeps the cattle a lot calmer.

‘The rodeo inspires kids to learn horsemanship.’ A Kyogle-born rodeo lover observed, ‘Bulls are naturally aggressive, I don’t think it’s anything to them, but I worry about the horses, they’re a flight animal, easily traumatised.’ Anti-cruelty laws have effectively banned rodeo in the UK. In the US, California has banned the use of cattle prods, but 12 US states have taken the opposing line, exempting rodeos from animal cruelty laws. There is an agreement over the ethics of preventing cruelty, however: Bostock stands with Bellamy in his opposition to the factory farming of chickens and pigs. Mr Bellamy says, ‘PETA’s credo is that animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on or use for entertainment.

Safety at Byron Bay’s Island Quarry on Ewingsdale Road is the subject of a Department of Primary Industries investigation after yet another person suffered back injuries from jumping off the quarry cliff into the quarry’s dam. The teenage boy is the seventh person to be injured while diving off the cliff in recent times. He was knocked unconscious and came close

to drowning after the dive on New Year’s Day. A department spokesperson says the site is fenced and there are as many as eight warning signs telling people not to jump. The department is talking to the Island Quarry Trust about what further actions it can take to prevent people – mostly young – from injuring themselves at the quarry.

Tintenbar to Ewingsdale Upgrading the Pacific Highway Staffed community display Alternative options to Bangalow interchange

The upgrade will provide about 17 kilometres of four lane divided highway from north of Ross Lane to the Ewingsdale interchange. Construction is anticipated to start in the first half of 2012. A Bangalow working party has been formed to investigate alternative options to the interchange at Bangalow as part of the project. There are 3 alternatives. Roads and Maritime Services is holding a staffed public display to discuss the alternative Bangalow interchange options with the local community. The staffed public displays will be held at: Bangalow A&I Hall Station Street, Bangalow Thursday 19 January 2012, 4pm-8pm. Thursday 2 February 2012, 4pm-8pm. Saturday 4 February 2012, 9am-12 noon. The options are also available on the Roads and Maritime Services website.

Around 80 free-energy enthusiasts filled the Mullumbimby Ex-Services club on Friday night to hear about the developments of Andrea Rossi’s cold-fusion claims. Last week The Echo reported that local free-energy advocate Sol Millin was convinced that the Italian inventor’s device, the E-cat, offered free energy. On the information that reputable scientists collaborated Rossi’s claims, entrepreneur Dick Smith flew up from Sydney chief investigator of the Australian Skeptics, Ian Bryce,

Both Mr Bryce and Mr Millin presented a detailed case. Mr Bryce told the audience that testing such claims by inventors falls into three categories. ‘First, does the invention adhere to known physics; second, how credible is the scientist claiming the invention; and third, has there been an independent valuation of the invention.’ Mr Bryce says in this case, all three categories have doubts. ‘I am interested to see if more information becomes available,’ he said.

The man who moved us moves on Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Angelo Tancredi has spent a lot of time moving folk in the Byron Shire and now it’s his turn to make a move. For 33 years he worked at Mullumbimby Removals; however, last Friday he hung up his luminous green singlet for the last time. ‘My wife Dawn retired the day before I did so we are going to do some travelling’, says Angelo. ‘We have decided the time has come. We are going to do it before we are in wheelchairs’. Angelo didn’t start his career as a removalist; he began his working life as a mechanic’s apprentice in Melbourne. After moving here he fell in love with a local girl and got a job with what was then Stan Robinson Removals. Angelo says that there have been big

changes in the type of people and families who have moved here since he began. ‘A lot of people seem to be wanting to get away from the city for a sea change. It has gotten a lot busier here and there are a lot more city folk here. ‘When I first came it was just a country town’. Angelo says that people’s reasons for leaving

Coal-seam gas test drilling has been halted by Arrow Energy in Beaudesert near the Queensland/NSW border after 12 people were arrested. On Friday, police arrested three people after they refused to move, including Northern Rivers residents Juanita Halden from Rock Valley Gas Rangers and Alan Roberts from Nimbin Environment Centre. They were charged with refusing to follow a police direction and are due to appear on February 1. Northern Rivers Guardians CSG campaign co-ordinator Michael McNamara told The Echo the most disturbing aspect of the blockade was that police were ‘acting as a private security firm for Arrow.’ The comment comes after the Sydney Morning Herald

revealed last week that federal energy minister Martin Ferguson wants the Australian Federal Police and ASIO to target groups campaigning against coal and, by implication, coalseam gas. ‘The local community is asking for such radical things as baseline water testing and genuine consultation,’ Mr McNamara said. On Saturday, 28-year-old NSW schoolteacher Daniel Robins climbed a seven-metre drilling rig and, after a day, Arrow agreed to his demand for negotiations. However when he climbed down he was arrested and charged with trespass. Apart from some Northern Rivers supporters, most of the protesters are local farmers and eco-tourism operators. Arrow Energy has agreed to negotiate with protesters.

Everyone speaks up for the whales and dolphins, but rarely the sharks, says local 18-yearold Madison Stewart. Madi regularly dives with sharks and considers the hysteria around them unfounded. She’s calling for letters of support to change the legislation that allows them to be commercially fished. ‘Currently there are 200 commercial gill-net vessels with licences to target sharks from within the Great Barrier Reef marine park world herit-

the area have changed as well. ‘I know a lot of people have left because they can’t actually do what they want to do on their properties or open businesses because of council regulations’. One of the more interesting experiences he says as a removalist is moving people in and out of houses again at lightning speed. ‘I have done some

quick moves. I took a lady to Brisbane once on a Wednesday and on the weekend she was moving out. A three-day turn around. We had a fellow we took to Sydney and we didn’t even unload him. He didn’t like Sydney so we brought him home again’. A daily highlight while on call was giving his daughter Leah – who works in the office – a bit of a kiss and a cuddle before his shift begins. The thing he enjoyed most about the job? The variety. ‘You’re not anchored to one place. You are moving around all the time and if you get into a bad job situation, tomorrow it’s going to be gone – but you don’t get that very often. ‘Most people are really good. I have met a lot of nice people over the years. We still wave to each other in the street’.

Blue Rock Foundation comes to Byron Photo & story Jeff Dawson

A national mentoring organisation for young people aged 12 and upwards is now available in Byron Bay. Blue Rock’s Byron co-ordinator Brad Scarrabelotti told The Echo, ‘We believe that fun, education, guidance and assistance are essential on the journey to leading a fulfilling life and I’m very excited to be able to offer these opportunities to young people in the area where I grew up’. Blue Rock will be running a number of programs in Byron Bay in the coming months, including a program for young women and a music program run by Djuaan Cockatoo.

Brad Scarrabelotti, Byron Bay co-ordinator pictured with Djuaan Cockatoo, Sydney co-ordinator.

Djuaan is now the Sydney co-ordinator for Blue Rock and also works with The Music Outback Foundation. Mark Gasson, founder and

CEO of Blue Rock, was previously involved with the The Uncle Project. For more visit www.bluerock.org.au or email Brad at brad@bluerock.org.au.

How our shires fare with growing e-waste Kate Pye

Australia’s electronic waste (ewaste) is growing at alarming rates, and our local shires are no exception. Since 2009, Byron Council says it has diverted more than 229 tonnes of e-waste from going to landfill. Although it is a free service for residents, there is an indirect cost to council. Unlike other recyclables such as timber, steel and glass, there is an expensive pricetag for e-waste. Geordie Gill from Australia’s leading e-waste

www.echo.net.au

company, 1800ewaste, said recently, ‘Currently it costs around $200 to properly recycle one analog television and $17 to bury it in landfill.’ The good news is that the Product Stewardship Act 2011 introduced last year will force manufacturers to contribute in the form of a licence fee to help cover the cost of recycling. Byron Shire has already proven its ability to manage ewaste and that puts the Council in an excellent position to be included in the new scheme. Our e-waste is transported to

Sims Recycling in Queensland, which is the largest electrical recycling company in the world. Unfortunately at this stage the cost of this process far outweighs the value of the materials recovered. In comparison, Lismore Council makes their residents pay $9 per computer or television dropped off at the tip, while Ballina Council does not even offer any e-waste disposal options. When we called we were directed to break our computer down and put it in the general

rubbish bin headed for landfill. Unfortunately for decades, e-waste has filled our landfill sites, leaching dangerous metals such as lead, cadmium and mercury into the surrounding soil, groundwater and ultimately ending up in us. The health effects of such heavy metals in humans can be devastating; research shows tumours, mental health disorders and cancer are just some of the results.

Walking for young hearts Eve Jeffery

Border to border, Carol White is about to walk the coastline of new South Wales to raise funds for the Heart Foundation and awareness of heart disease in young adults. Carol knows first hand about heart-related issues; heart disease runs through her fit, active and sports-oriented family, affecting her four sons, as it did her parents. Her walk, which starts on March 2 and is expected to take three months, will cover all of NSW’s ocean beaches. She will start from Nadgee Nature Reserve on the Victorian/NSW border and plans to finish at Duranbah Beach on the Queensland border. ‘Heart problems might not emerge until your forties or

fifties but they can start in your twenties, even teens,’ says Carol. ‘ I’ve have seen this happen in my family. I have always wanted to walk the beaches of New South Wales so this is a way to fulfil a dream and raise money for a cause close to my own heart’. On her 990km walk carol will walk along 763 ocean-facing beaches, with a daily target

of 20km. Carol’s husband Stewart will accompany her as land support, also walking with her through the national parks. The biggest challenge will be Stockton Beach, near Newcastle, a 32km stretch of sand. Carol aims to raise an initial $10,000 through sponsorships and fundraising. She has been in training since the start of 2011, walking 20km three days a week and has recently increased that to five days. A send-off for Carol will be held at the Mullumbimy Tennis Club on Wednesday January 25. The $15 per head includes lunch and a glass of wine, games, raffle and fun. RSVP to Jeanie 0439 733 763 or Carol 0419 046 776 and for more visit www. walkforyounghearts.org.

Banglow interchange options released The NSW Roads & Maritime Services (RMS) this week released for public feedback three new options for its planned Bangalow interchange. The release follows a fiery public meeting at Bangalow’s A&I Hall back in June last year, moderated by Don Page, MP, when Bangalow made it clear to the Roads & Maritime Services (then called the RTA) that it didn’t want its proposed interchange design. According to the Bangalow Progress As-

sociation (BPA), the RTA then gave a public undertaking to develop alternative designs for the controversial project. BPA vice-president Tony Hart says he has spoken to a number of Bangalow residents to gauge local opinion. ‘Based on feedback to date, it is possible that Option 2 will be Bangalow’s preferred option,’ he said. Option 2 was developed by the Bangalow community as the least intrusive way of providing the hinter-

land village with access to the new T2E Pacific Highway upgrade. It maximises the use of existing infrastructure while at the same time recognising the RMS’s need to manage heavy traffic flows if vehicles need to be rerouted from the T2E onto the Old Pacific Highway. The Progress Association plans to call a public meeting early next month, after the school term starts and following the RMS’s public displays, to allow locals to have their say.

Kingscliff housing project draws protests Luis Feliu

Former Tweed Greens councillor Henry James has called on the state planning department to defer a decision on the massive Kings Forest housing project near Kingscliff until courts have ruled on the developer’s alleged unauthorised clearing and draining of parts of the Cudgen Nature Reserve adjacent to the site. The first stage of the 4,500home development is currently on public exhibition with submissions closing on January 25. Last Wednesday scores of people concerned about the

impacts of the development, including campaigners trying to protect a nearby koala colony, attended a meeting at Cabarita Beach where they were urged to object to the project by the Leda Group. Authorities recently implicated Leda, owned by billionaire developer Bob Ell, in the massive illegal vegetation clearing in the nature reserve along Blacks Creek. But the property group claimed workmen bulldozed trees and other vegetation along a 300-metre stretch inside the protected area by accident.

Mr James, who was threatened with defamation by Mr Ell some years ago after he raised questions about illegal clearing at Kings Forest, called for a freeze on further approvals until the case over Blacks Creek was settled. Mr James, who said the illegal work along the creek inside the reserve would improve drainage in the southeast corner of Kings Forest and facilitate development in low-lying areas of the 1,100-acre site, has written a submission describing the project application ‘not fit for approval’, and is ‘seriously flawed.’

Japan hangs tough on killing whales

This is not simply because of the whaling ships’ blatant violation of declared marine On Thursday, January 26, Byron Shire, along with the rest of sanctuaries and Australian terAustralia, will be celebrating Australia Day – see www.byron.nsw. ritorial waters.

for special treatment for whales, especially those that are well off the endangered list, is sheer humbug. And they are not going to put up with it, so there. From this perspective the most effective way to end whaling might be to simply ignore it; the probability is that after a few years it would be quietly phased out anyway, for reasons of simple economics. But that is obviously not going to

Well, I suppose it all depends on where you stand, but at least we can agree that they are certainly not subversives; they are open and honest about their actions to the point of celebrating them. And in this they follow the honourable tradition of most Australian protesters, even those who occasionally stray outside the law. Which is why it is so distasteful – indeed, one could even say unAustralian – for the resources minister, Martin Ferguson, to have sooled ASIO and our other security services onto those seeking to disrupt the activities of the coal-seam gas miners. To suggest that in some way they could constitute a threat to national security in the manner of suicide-bombing terrorists is not simply absurd; it is barely sane. And it is the mark of a government deeply affected by paranoia, whose ministers see conspiracy, danger and insurrection in every instance of dissent, however overt and legitimate it may be. If demonstrators and protesters break the law, it is a matter for the police, not for the spooks. Ferguson, who comes from a family steeped in the lore of political protest, should know better. His father Jack led many a protest in the old days and regarded his ASIO file as a badge of honour, while deploring the authoritarian tendencies in the government which ordered its creation. Gillard should call young Martin off immediately before Jack rolls out of his grave breathing righteous vengeance upon both of them.

ranting about border protection where wretched and desperate asylum seekers are concerned, is not suggesting that. All of which leaves the politicians effectively impotent, and this is where the vigilantes come in. Groups like Sea Shepherd can and do claim the moral high ground; they are, after all, only trying to enforce the law where those sworn to uphold

There is a touch of edginess about eating whale in the same way as there is about eating the potentially deadly fugu fish. by Mungo MacCallum happen, so while the whaling continues it is up to the rest of the world, and in particular the countries of the International Whaling Commission, to enforce its own rules. But once again, this is not going to happen; Realpolitik dictates that no government in its right mind is going to go to war with Japan over whaling, so all that is left is the cumbersome system of international law. Australia has, belatedly, taken a case to the International Court of Justice, but the hearings will be both delayed and prolonged and the outcome deeply uncertain. So in the meantime, what is to be done? The opposition, which spent a decade and more in government doing absolutely nothing, is now demanding that the government send a gunboat – well, actually a customs vessel – to look on. But unless the customs vessel is prepared to open fire, it is hard to see what that would achieve. And even the opposition, for all its hairy-chested

it have wimped out. But that does not give them free reign to cause chaos and carnage on the high seas, and if having done so against the advice of their own government their members get into strife, it’s a bit rough to expect the government to bail them out. There is no virtue in taking the risks unless you are prepared to bear the responsibility for the consequences. The government clearly has a duty to do what it can, within the law, to help its own citizens in distress, and in the case of Sea Shepherd’s three crewmen the government has fulfilled that obligation admirably. But it would be unwise for those who sail under the skull and crossbones to take this as a green light for all future actions. After all, even Queen Elizabeth had to deny her privateers, heroes such as Morgan and Drake, when their actions took them completely over the top.

Council has been deterring young visitors for 50 years In last week’s Echo on page 3, under the heading ‘Illegal parking clampdowns’ was the revelation that Council officers had ‘issued 550 penalty notices for infringements related to street camping’. This was in the period between December 26 and January 2. Beautiful. A great boost for a tourist town. In the Echonetdaily of January 11 a front page story detailed that ‘Byron Shire Council had asked the NSW government for changes to the law regulating street camping’ and that ‘the legislation currently prevents councils from prohibiting street camping because councils cannot regulate the use of vehicles in a road nor road regulated areas.’ Are you giving us an example of the late George Orwell’s Newspeak? Or is Council knowingly prosecuting people for sleeping in their vehicles when they are aware that they do not have the power to do so? If the latter is the case, then it can only be a matter of time before a criminal charge is laid against those responsible for perverting the course of justice. Look, to my knowledge Byron Council has been trying to deter young visitors to this town for the past half century

Buyer beware An article appeared in your January 3 edition titled ‘Nonbank home lenders make a comeback’ stating that local business Low Deposit Property is ‘seeking to make a first-home purchase possible for families who have been locked out of the bank lending system’. Firstly it needs to be ac-

and the policy has, thankfully, been a monumental failure and the town has prospered in spite of this policy. I personally know at least a dozen local citizens here who, as young surfers in the 60s, were bashed by police, hassled by rangers and were made aware, in no uncertain terms, that they were not welcome in Byron Bay. These people are now property owners, the cream of the town, the respected bourgeoisie. I recommend they get off their collective arse over this issue because it has gone on long enough. Property owners will always complain about what they see as freeloaders getting the same benefits as they. That is, they have paid two zillion bucks, or whatever it is these days, to buy a property and there is some guy in a van camping out there in front of them and grilling his snags on his portable BBQ, right on the beachfront. It’s not right, is it? Get used to it. This is Australia, not America or Europe or even Asia, where they fence off beaches for the rich. We are the most egalitarian people on Earth and that is a product of the background of the settlement of Australia. After the no-

madic, that’s the operative word here, indigents we had the felons and their keepers, and then the gold rush era of the mid to late 1800s which brought in the adventurers of the world. Economic success was awarded through luck, the fickle finger of fate and the strength of your back, rather than through class distinction. The young people – and some old people too, the failures in the economic chess game of life or those that simply don’t care – who are in the cars and vans are doing that to save on accommodation and transport. With the current strength of the Aussie dollar, this trend will continue to grow. China fail? Pigs might fly. The fact is that international youth tourism in Australia is reeling – you can get a good quality market meal in Vietnam for $1.40 and a bottle of the local brew for $0.40 and those that do bother to make it here are questioning: Why should I pay $35 to $40 – that’s real dollars now, not the Pacific Pesos of a few years back – a night for a dorm bed to sleep with a dozen others? The smart thing is to rent or buy a car or a van and Bob’s your uncle, as they say.

After 50 a different approach. years in backpacker travel years of failure, it’s about time Lester Brien tourism and the current trend the council started thinking of Byron Bay is the car and van traveller.

cepted that there are times when banks do not lend to you because they shouldn’t. Being unable to keep up your payments in a flat weekly or monthly payment loan will cost you, particularly in the early years. An example is the $535,000 house in Mill Street, Mullumbimby, advertised on their website with weekly payments

of $848 over 30 years. Putting aside the issue of whether the property is worth that much and that you may be paying a premium for the privilege of paying the $1,322,880 that the above payments represent, let’s look further As stated on the Low Deposit Property website the applicable interest rate is 7.99 per cent (around 1.5 per cent

higher than the banks) with payments over 30 years. The website insists that you must pay a deposit but does not disclose how much or on what basis, so let’s be charitable and assume $5,000 in this case. Interest payments will be $636,969 with principal payments of $530,000 totalling $1,166,969. Your payments of $848 weekly over the 30 years total $1,322,880, so $155,831 or $100 a week has elusively gone missing, maybe as lending charges

not currently disclosed. Next you are advised or even encouraged to move your loan into the banking system after as early as two years. The fact is that in the early years of fixed loan payments you accrue little equity and that you will damage yourself financially by doing so. In the example after two years equity is $6,212 (plus your deposit) or after five years $18,069. Reference to the Frequently Asked Questions on the website reveals the following: ‘Low Deposit Property is not a bank or financial institution.’ So that any legislation to protect the consumer does not apply. ‘The title to the property stays in the name of Low Deposit Property until you have made all your repayments and fulfilled your obligations under

the sale contract.’ That is, you are not the owner of the property! Yet when it comes to the following ongoing costs you suddenly become the ‘owner’: ‘As the owner of the home you pay for any repairs or maintenance to the property.’ ‘As the owner of the home you pay for any insurance and rates and taxes on the property.’ Finally be very aware of this: ‘The lender that has lent us the money to buy the property usually takes a mortgage on the property.’ ‘… should my company go into receivership or liquidation then my interest in your property might be sold. If this happens you will simply make repayments to another person.’ Low Deposit Property’s interest may not be sold and if the mortgagor bank forecloses on your property you may well

Vaccination benefits Myles Davidson (Letters, January 3) suggests that people do some research first when considering vaccinating their children. Well, let’s do that. From WHO (The United Nations World Health organisation): Fact: Immunisation prevents 2.5 million deaths every year in all age groups from diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis (whooping cough), and measles. Fact: Over one million infants and young children die every year from pneumococcal disease and rotavirus diarrhoea, a large number of these deaths preventable through vaccination. Fact: Global measles mortality has been reduced from an estimated 733,000 deaths

in 2000 to 164,000 deaths in 2008, thanks to intensified vaccination campaigns Fact: Since 1988, polio incidence has fallen by 99 per cent, from more than 350,000 cases to 1,410 cases in 2010. Since development of the polio vaccine in the 1950s, deaths have dropped from many hundreds of thousands. The problem is that immunisation has been so successful that we no longer see these diseases in Australia and the voodoo science of the likes of Myles Davidson and his NauturalNews.com website starts to take hold. Parents, please, please, please vaccinate your children. Do not put their lives and health at risk. Katie Clarke

Is it warranted? In reading the agendas of recent Council meetings I have noticed an increasing use of search warrants and increasing use of police or inspections. Whether this is because landowners have become more assertive of their rights or because Council staff have found this to be a convenient way to intimidate people I don’t know. The Echo might like to enquire from the local area commander whether this is an appropriate use of police resources in situations where there is no hint of physical danger.

cally a criminal offence, but it is the white-collar type of offence which the cops usually run a mile from. I also notice that Council staff are using a stated concern for fire safety to obtain search warrants for looking inside dwellings as well as merely looking to identify those dwellings as existing. Of course your elected councillors could limit the potential for abuse if they had the wit and the guts. They could resolve, for example, as follows: – that staff seek a search warrant only with the consent of Council, – that staff use police only where there is a demonstrable risk to staff, as determined by Council, and – that in cases where a search warrant is issued the owner be given 24 hours notice of the impending inspection, as in normal inspections. Don’t hold your breath; the Greens might be sympathetic but Crs Morrissey and Cameron (Arthur and Martha) would scuttle it all. The degree to which these two defer to staff power is quite depressing.

piece of good old-fashioned bigotry. I suggest you substitute the word Jew for Christian and read the piece again. Remind you of someone (hint: small black moustache)? Or put in the word Asian instead. Remind you of someone (hint: middle-aged redhead)? I’m not overjoyed when a family with noisy kids decides to settle in next to me on a beach either but I’m certainly not about to claim that kids, or any other group of people doing their own thing on a public beach, should not be welcome there. Get over yourself! I don’t belong to any religion, but anyone who does should not have to be subjected to this kind of attack. What’s so wrong about peace, love and understanding?

Byron Bay which appears to be a purposebuilt tourist facility operating in a residential zoning. Thank you for your response regarding the matter. A newspaper report stated that an ‘Order to Desist’(!) had been issued. Having passed by at least twice nearly every day, I could not help noticing that desisting does not seem to have taken place, as there have appeared to be a number of tourists staying there. Naturally I took down some number plates (thanks, Cheryl) and noted the chaps asking directions to the beach. Could you please address the following questions? 1. When will a prosecution commence? 2. Who will conduct it, and where? 3. Under what legislation (for those of us who’d like to read the Act)? 4. What will it cost us, as a Shire, to prosecute these guys? 5. We read of fines ‘up to 1 million dollars’. Who gets the money? 6. Do these fines relate to each offence, ie, every occasion on which the law was broken, as applied to most human beings? (6 x $380m as a total of units operated (6) over period of activity (380 days), gives $2.28b! Bankruptcy should be a useful deterrent.) 7. Can we as a Shire turn a profit ? 8.

I loved Mandy’s Soapbox on the fundamentalists. Scary! But I was particularly impressed by her appreciation of the difference between agnosticism and atheism. Atheists are fundamentalists, no less dangerous than believers. They believe that we can have this conversation through random, blind chance heaped upon blind chance, ad infinitum (which is in the same league as suggesting that a monkey with a typewriter, given time, might have written Encyclopedia Britannica). Now, that’s freaky. And they claim to be the rational ones. They demand proof. Where is their proof? Atheism is a reactionary, emotional, untenable intellectual position. (Oops, I forgot hubristic.) But, Jesus playing bongos?

War is peace, freedom is slavery ... and fighting back is ‘aggression’ Kevin Carson

The US Department of Defense recently promulgated a new ‘defence’ guidance document: ‘Sustaining US Global Leadership: Priorities for 21st Century Defense.’ It just doesn’t seem quite right to use ‘defence’ to describe a document that – like its predecessors – envisions something like an American Thousand-Year Reich. The greatest shift in emphasis is in the section ‘Project power despite Anti-Access/ Area Denial Challenges.’ The ‘threat’ to be countered is that China and Iran ‘will continue to pursue asymmetric means to counter our power projection capabilities’. That refers to a long-standing phenomenon: what Pentagon analysts call ‘Assassin’s Mace’ weapons – cheap, agile weapons that render expensive, high-tech, weapons systems ineffective at a cost several orders of magnitude cheaper than the Pentagon’s gold-plated turds. In the context of ‘area denial’, they include cheap anti-ship mines, surface-to-air missiles, and anti-ship missiles like the Sunburn (which some believe could destroy or severely damage aircraft carriers). Thus the Pentagon defines as a ‘threat’ a country’s ability to defend itself effectively against attack or to prevent an enemy from putting offensive forces into place to attack it. Yes, you read that right: to the American national security establishment, it’s considered threatening when you prepare to defend yourself against attack by the United States. It’s the perspective of a Family Circus character: ‘Mommy, he hit

me back!’ That kind of double standard is pretty common in the National Security State’s assessment of the world. What can one say of a situation in which America runs a military budget equal to the rest of the industrialised world put together, maintains military bases in half the countries around the globe, routinely intervenes to overthrow governments, rings China with military bases – then solemnly announces that China’s military establishment is ‘far larger than called for by its legitimate defensive needs’? Considering that the US considers its ‘legitimate defensive needs’ to encompass outspending the other top ten military powers in the world combined and maintaining the ability to preemptively attack any other country in the world, it’s hard to guess what the Pentagon’s criterion is for determining China’s ‘legitimate defensive needs’. But it’s safe to say ‘legitimate’ defensive forces don’t extend to the ability for China to defend its

territory against attack from the main actual threat facing it: a global superpower trying to turn China’s neighbourhood into a battlefield. And how about attacking Saddam for ‘making war on his own neighbours’ when the US actively supported his invasion of Iran in the 1980s? Not to mention the US Marines waltzing in and out of most of America’s Caribbean ‘neighbours’ throughout the middle of the 20th century. To Washington, any country capable of resisting American attack, or of ‘defying’ American commands (whether under a UN Security Council figleaf or not) is by definition a ‘threat.’ And any country inflicting significant losses on US military forces, in the process of defending itself against American military attack, is guilty of aggression (against US attempts to ‘defend our freedom’, one presumes). American perceptions of ‘self-defence’ and ‘aggression’ are as distorted as those of Nazi Germany. When the only way you can ‘defend

yourself ’ against another country’s ‘threat’ is to go to the other side of the world to fight it, because it lacks the logistical capability to project military force more than a few hundred miles outside its own borders – and the main ‘threat’ is its ability to fight back when you attack it – you know something’s pretty messed From the Center For A Stateless Society’s (c4ss.org) research associate Kevin Carson, a contemporary mutualist author and individualist anarchist whose written work includes Studies in Mutualist Political Economy, Organization Theory: A Libertarian Perspective, and The Homebrew Industrial Revolution: A Low-Overhead Manifesto, all of which are freely available online.

Woodford and CSG

called as witnesses, or simply to provide statements? (My notebook stands ready.) I look forward to your answers to the above, which will, one hopes, be published. I also have additional questions. Given that the development is obviously a tourist resort, and noted as such by a local resident as an objection to the DA, why was the development approved? Are the staff members responsible still employed? Does failed staff work result in disciplinary action, and direct consequences, as experienced by most people in society?

Dear Woodford Folk Festival, you must be proud of yourselves to be the first place where the predatory antisocial, environmentally destructive coal-seam gas  industry has started their campaign to undermine the opposition to CSG mining. For $225,000 Woodford has sold out the broader community, and sold Santos a way to convince the public that the CSG industry has redeeming features. You are now part of Santos’s propaganda campaign to divide and conquer. You are a disgrace. Sponsorships are business Matt Hartley promotion campaigns. EffecByron Bay tively, at Woodford this year,

you ran a promotion for an ‘Open The Gate’ campaign to CSG mining. Woodford has turned into a developer’s dream where they can start ‘softening’ the opposition to CSG. Will Woodford pay the $50,000 fines for a person standing on their own land blocking a mining truck? Will you compensate rural families when their long continuous family history of living and farming on a property is destroyed? Will Woodford pay the court costs and fines for principled people that demonstrate against pipelines bulldozed through presently protected forests? Will Woodford pay the fines of those who will demonstrate against new ports on the Barrier Reef that will destroy habitat for marine life and the threatened dugongs? Will Woodford pay to import vegetables when large swathes of our farming land are destroyed? Our Earth is more precious than your festival. Hope you have fun dancing on the destruction of Mother Earth. I’ll go for saving the Earth and boycotting Woodford. In fact I’d go further. You want signs, we’ll bring them. I’d support anti-coal-seam gas protest direct action at the site. With a view to Occupy!

Women and power tools

house,’ says Patt, who has been teaching woodwork for 13 years from her studio in Mullumbimby. ‘I think is particularly important that students learn the foundational skills of fundamental design, measuring and marking out and how to choose and handle tools confidently as well as being able to saw straight and join wood together solidly. ‘The idea is to set a student

up with the basic skills so that they can become independent and go on to make the things they want and not be bound by what’s available at shops like Ikea. Design it then make it yourself, I say!’ Women and Power Tools is a new course being offered for the first time in Mullumbimby. It starts February 4–5.

A look at future directions for education David Hunter Tow

Over the coming decades the process of learning and education will undergo a profound shift, from the traditional classroom/face-to-face method of knowledge transfer to a much more abstract model, where teaching will be largely separated from its current physical infrastructure, such as classrooms and campuses, in much the same way as the content of a printed book is becoming abstracted from its physical medium in digitised eBook form. The human learning process will be driven by the need to adapt to its social environment; primarily the increasing rate of change in the knowledge and skills required to support future civilisation’s technology, culture and services. This will occur in tandem with society’s immersion in an increasingly cyber environment. The Education Revolution is therefore inextricably linked to two major drivers: The Knowledge Revolution – the hyper-fast generation of information and knowledge processes; The Cyber Revolution – the transformation of the world’s knowledge base, including all processes and services to digital form, distributed via the web.

Online education By 2020 online education will dominate university and school learning. This will allow resources and investment to be more effectively applied to the quality and delivery of courseware – anywhere, anytime. Already a growing acceptance of online learning in major universities and schools has generated the development of hybrid curricula – a combination of online options and traditional face-to-face classroom teaching and tutoring. However, some institutions such as the global Phoenix University

already operate solely as virtual campuses, offering global online courseware. This shift will have many beneficial flow-on effects for both individuals and communities, including reduced travel time and more flexible delivery of courseware, making learning more affordable and accessible, particularly for working and part-time students.

Open Content The Open Content movement is also generating momentum in the new educational universe. Open Content allows all sectors of society, including poorer populations in developing nations, to benefit from the education revolution, using the web to deliver the collective courseware of major teaching institutions across the globe, free of charge. This valuable resource is already offered by a number of prestigious tertiary institutions including The Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Yale, and Harvard. In addition the Open Courseware Consortium now has 200 members, 4,000 courses and 44 sources in seven languages. Developing countries such as India and China are also funding massive expansion programs in their schools and universities, for example graduating over 250,000 engineering and computer science students each year, rapidly catching up with the West in the quality and innovation of teaching methods. Learning technology will be dominated largely by the new social media – social networks, augmented reality, virtual worlds, video gaming etc, delivered via smart mobile multipurpose devices connected to the web. By 2030 the full power of the web will be deployed towards this new learning paradigm, including powerful simulation training environments based

Illustration from www.universityaffairs.ca

on immersive virtual reality. Augmented and virtual realities will allow procedures and knowledge to be absorbed within 3D virtual worlds and games, capable of simulating most services and applications; supporting the full range of training needs from trade apprenticeships to strategic management skills.

Avatars are us The application of virtual worlds to education will become a standard function of school and university teaching and research in the near future. People are already using such technology to socialise and connect through personalised avatars. These worlds can therefore be quickly adapted to provide learning support and feedback between students, with the added potential to create teaching avatar support. Traditional human teaching supervision with still be vital for young children, but games already play a large part in their development and this role will accelerate in the cyber age. 2030 will also see the acceptance of two additional trends: whole-of-life learning and personalised instruction. Both will be driven by the exponential

rate of change in the social, work and cyber environments. Whole-of-life vocational learning will become both essential and natural as it is realised that secondary and tertiary learning is just the beginning of human cognitive challenges. This trend is already underway, facilitated by the web’s pervasive access to the world’s digitised knowledge storehouse. Enterprise organisational boundaries and work practices will become increasingly fluid and porous, with individuals moving freely between projects, career paths and virtual organisations; adding value to each enterprise and in turn continuously allowing workers to acquire new skills, linked to ongoing advanced learning programs. By 2040 it is anticipated there will be a scramble within public teaching institutions to fill emerging educational and training gaps in courseware at all levels – primary, high school, undergraduate and postgraduate studies. But the knowledge explosion will now be too fast for traditional course development and management methods, demanding support for constantly emerging cross-discipline training, combined with an emphasis on

general problem-solving and creative skills. Most institutions will be under enormous pressure to keep up with the demands of the medical, legal, science and engineering professions, incorporating the latest technologies, with capacity seriously lagging the accelerating knowledge advances. This period will mark the beginning of the end for the traditional one-track qualification pathway. Instead, performance assessment will be based on the quality, relevance and value of an individual’s skills and capabilities in relation to business, professional and social requirements.

New modes Formal education will have reached a critical threshold as it is understood that ongoing personal learning is an essential driver for human survival and progress – and always has been. Such an expanded view will also generate new modes of alternative education, nurturing creativity and encouraging learning for learning’s sake. For example the Free/Slow University of Warsaw – FSUW – offers an informal, non-profit centre for interdisciplinary studies, providing for student participation on the basis of the excitement of knowledge discovery and cultural experience for its own intrinsic sake, rather than for the pursuit of

profits alone. By 2050 the intelligent web 4.0 will be capable of autonomously generating knowledge in synch with new work patterns and individual requirements, delivered directly, eventually through neural as well as sensory interfaces. By 2050 the abstraction of learning from its traditional infrastructure of classrooms and campuses will be complete in most advanced nations, with the major teaching institutions morphing into community support centres for research and services integration. The role of the intelligent web within the educational universe will have been transformed into that of a senior partner with humans, continuously forecasting new skill requirements and generating the required support programs; creating new courseware as a public resource, belonging to the global commons. This will finally allow the developing world to achieve equal status with the developed world in terms of access to knowledge, training and the realisation of human potential.

What would you do if you were injured and couldn’t work? Have you considered taking out income protection insurance? A mate of mine in Byron went on an overseas holiday a few years back and, while out exploring the joys of Asia, he became separated from his motorbike on a gnarly little corner. Not long after the dismount, he became acquainted with a steel guard rail on the side of the road. As a result of the unplanned deviation, he suered serious injuries and was rushed to hospital. I received an unpleasant phone call from my mate’s father asking me to give him a call. So I make the overseas call to the intensive care unit of the Phuket hospital wondering what to expect. The hospital’s automated phone service was incredible: seven dierent language options and a couple of buttons later my mate answers the phone with a little groggy and softly spoken ‘Hello’. The conversation went like this: ‘What happened, are you okay?’ ‘Yeh, I’m ďŹ ne. Stacked a motorbike I hired. I’m a little busted up, but doctors say I will be sweet. The ‘little busted up’ involved a brain haemorrhage, three broken ribs, a punctured lung, broken spine, knee, elbow and shoulder. We he told me the extent of his injuries in his quiet but still-positive tone of voice I got that terrible feeling that seems to start in your throat and then runs down into your stomach and churns whatever is in there. Our conversation went through the whole carnage of the accident etc and how he was going to pull through‌ that news gave me relief from the stomach condition I was suering (poor me)! He had great travel insurance that was paying hospital costs and arranging his trip home when he was healthy enough to travel. Great, things were looking positive! He then said he might be o work for a while and asked about his income protection policy I set up for him years before and whether it was still current? I told him not to worry, I’d look into it. That’s when the stomach churning started again! In the back of my mind I was remembering that some six months earlier, the same mate rings me and says he was thinking about cancelling his insurance; he knew the cost was tax deductible and generally a good idea to have it but he was just not sure he needed it. He said didn’t need it then‌ but he knows he needs it now! I had faint recollections of telling him at that time to give it some serious thought before

16 January 17, 2012 The Byron Shire Echo

cancelling his policy without trying to sound like a dodgy insurance salesman with only self-interest (my worst fear), but I could not remember if he had actually stopped the policy. So I ended the phone call and started another with the insurance company I had written his policy with, nervously waiting to see if it was still current. Turns out it was. Not only that, the amount he was insured for had grown annually with ination and was now at over 60,000 per year. I rang my mate back and let him know that after his policy waiting period (30 days) he will have 5,000 paid into his account a month and every month while he can’t work and if he takes a few years to recover, the 5,000 increases every year with ination. My mate’s tone was soft and positive as I said, but I could tell the relief that news had given him made him relax and breathe that little more easily. Needless to say, his recovery, which is still ongoing, was/is ďŹ nancially stress free! When clients tell me they can’t afford income insurance, I tell them they can’t aord not to have it. But if you really can’t aord it, you can use your superannuation to pay the premiums for you. Call 6687 6566 to help you relax and breathe easily!

Importers remain fairly ‘happy’ with the AU/US pairing as their invoices reect the strength of the Aussie dollar, and with those of us travelling abroad.

today (closer to 1.07 at the banks and – gulp – 1.11 at the airports, with three per cent charges on top) so the average tourist on their way into Oz is getting between AU95 and AU90 per US100. Considering historically the US has fetched around the AU150 or more and, in addition to the GFC eect generally, this has had and will continue to have consequences on our tourism markets. Add to this drop in inbound bodies the exodus of local tourists taking advantage of the AU strength and it’s a whole new world in tourism. But no matter WHAT the market, it is your job to damage-control the rate and fee loss on your transactions. Maths, the universal language, speaks for itself so here is a comparison on same-day rates between providers. An inbound traveller or a local returning home with US1000, EU500 and GBP500 (06/01/12) would receive, after rate and fee applications, AU2072.05 from the Coolangatta Airport, AU2208.10 from a major Australian bank and AU2273.05 from a Byron Bay FX provider. That is AU201 or AU64.95 more in YOUR hand for the same amount of money handed over. Considering you have just been on holiday (or are on holiday and wanting to maximise your funds) this money could go to much greater use. ‘Shop around’ and locally first. Like the local customer who saved 1250 Aussie on her substantial EURO transaction this week said: ‘That was the best 10 minutes’ work I’ve ever done!’ Money matters‌ it’s yours!

THE IMPORTANCE OF LEARNING TO SWIM AND CHOOSING A SWIM SCHOOL Drowning is the greatest cause of accidental death in children under five in Australia. Each week, on average, one child drowns. Why do children drown? Inadequate fencing or no fencing around the pool. Lack of gate security. Lack of effective water skills. Inadequate supervision. Lack of resuscitation skills. Parents should enrol in learn-to-swim programs that encourage: Developmental appropriate learning skills that correlate to the child’s growth and age limitations. Learning without floatation devices. Children must feel buoyancy and the floating sensation to learn to swim correctly. Maximum practice time is essential for skill acquisition. Make sure that your lesson focuses on swimming activities like breath control, submersion, floating and propulsion. Grouping into lessons children that are similar in age and ability. Parental involvement is essential for safe, secure and productive learning. Most importantly when choosing a swim school make sure that they are certified by either AustSwim or Swim Australia to ensure that it meets national guidelines in teaching. For all your swimming requirements please contact: Casuarina Rec Club Swim School Barclay Drive, Casuarina, NSW, 2487 Ph 02 6674 9861 www.casuarinarecclub.com.au

love?‌ was this a conscious process for you or did it just happen? Originally we did arrangements of early blues songs by some of the great masters, and in fact our new album, alongside the originals, has a number of treatments of songs by our blues heroes. It’s always been about presenting the music we love in our own way. How would you describe Delta-Blues wall of sound as a genre? It’s a term I made up – kind of a spoof of Phil Spector’s (the famous producer) production style called the ‘Wall of Sound’. In our case we try to do what US multi-instrumentalist David Lindley calls ‘Little Big Music’ – make as much noise with three people as possible. Who are the musicians that have most influenced you? It’s a long list and covers a variety of genres – in the blues ilk, the biggest influences are Mississippi Fred McDowell, Charley Patton, Son House, Lead Belly, Blind Willie McTell, Blind Blake, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Skip THIS WEEK SEMINAL ACOUSTIC BLUES James, RL Burnside to name a few. In more eclectic BAND THE BACKSLIDERS PLAY THE BYRON mixed genres it’s Ry Cooder and David Lindley, Tom THEATRE AT THE COMMUNITY CENTRE. THEY Waits, Dave Tronzo, Marc Ribot‌ then of course there’s Vietnamese master guitarist Kim Sinh. In dub it’s King ARE JOINED BY THEIR FIVE-STAR SUPPORT Tubby and Lee Perry and instrumental hip-hop, DJ FOR THE EVENING, KRISTINA OLSEN. Shadow‌ that’s before we even get to soul, motown and funk!

release; what is the story of the title? Lead Belly has had a huge influence on me, and we included a few of his songs on the album. His father, Wes Ledbetter, allegedly referred to Lead Belly’s guitar as a ‘Starvation Box’ – meaning that it was going to make Lead Belly poor. The irony was that after Lead Belly died in 1949, the US folk group The Weavers had an international hit with one of Lead Belly’s songs. Wes may have been right. Did you end up achieving what you set out to achieve with the recording process? We are always striving to make albums that sound real – which is not as easy as it sounds. To quote Tom Waits, ‘music doesn’t want to be recorded’. With Starvation Box (and our last two albums, Left Field Holler and Throwbacks) we recorded at Jim Moginie’s (Midnight Oil) studio in Sydney. The room is perfect for us – in fact part of the wooden flooring was salvaged from the Antler Hotel in Sydney where Midnight Oil did some of their earliest gigs – and Jim’s approach is very much to achieve as analog a sound as possible. What are the musical choices that you make that you believe define the album? With Starvation Box we continue our theme of trying to present blues themes in a modern context – in this case songs speaking out against oppression and racism – often fuelled by tabloid-style media and ‘shock jocks’ – alongside songs that tell stories of the lives of our blues heroes. What should we expect for your Byron show? A long set as usual – with a lot of material from the new album Starvation Box, interspersed with our favourites from the past 25 years. The Backsliders plus guest support Kristina Olsen Saturday 8pm at the Byron Theatre, Community Centre and Friday at Currumbin RSL Soundlounge. For all tickets go to www.gaynorcrawford.com.

GET AWAY It’s a sad day when the thought of going on holidays causes a stress reaction. Packing for a family of seven is a project that requires army-like precision, at least a week lead-in time and two Valium. And that’s just to go somewhere for the weekend. Once upon a time when I was single, going away was simple. Ten minutes before I needed to leave the house I’d throw a bag on the bed, put in a few pairs of clean undies, a few t-shirts, a box of condoms, a book and my toothbrush (clearly I used to be a man). Those days are gone. Now when I go away I need an action plan. In the week leading up to our departure I have to develop an exit strategy. Problem one: Animals. This never occurs to anyone else in my family. If it weren’t for me they’d be left behind and would be DOR (Dead on Return). As a household with two rabbits, a cat and a dog, it’s always a bit of a challenge to find someone who’s willing to tend my furry flock. Occasionally one can dress up pet minding with the title ‘house sit’, but this requires you to have an itinerant and reliable friend who’s not going to trash your house or start wearing your undies. Cats can be left behind with a drop-in feeder, as can rabbits, but dogs are the co-dependents of the pet world and they require love with their meat… just like blokes. While preparing for the three-day trek to western Queensland to visit my 95-year-old Nanna it occurs to me that my usual Elvis-minding arrangements weren’t going to hold: I currently have two dogs as we have been saddled with someone else’s dog for three weeks. I suggest taking the dogs on the road. They’re small, if they’re not welcome they can sleep in the car. Although the Bureau of Meteorology is forecasting 40-degree days. a solo artist, Kit set up home in Byron Bay in early 2011, pieced together a band and found himself inundated with gigs. Over the winter months, Kit independently recorded his first EP labelled The Time He Waits here in Byron with a special launch at the Buddha Bar on Saturday. Opening the night are Danny Ross and Si Fixion.

Then I find out that in the Sunshine State it’s a $400 fine for an unharnessed mutt. Great, $800 for the dogs not wearing seatbelts. Our car is a seven seater. I need Nine. It’s going to cost $1500 to hire a bus with adequate seat belts. I book the furry beasts into a doggy B&B. Fleabags are sorted. I start working through the five washing baskets scattered through the house. I count 13 loads, dried and folded and returned to their appropriate owners. Clean ironed clothes appearing in your cupboards like that, wow, it must be like a miracle has occurred. I fantasise about something like that ever happening to me. The day before we are due to leave I start the packing. I pack the baby’s bag. Jammies, cotton dresses, shorts, t-shirts, swimmers, shoes, undies, nappies, hat, shoes, little toothbrush, hair brush, nit comb (she’s been scratching again), bum wipes, paw paw ointment, goggles, swimming cap, flotation vest, toddler sunscreen. Then I pack a bag of toys. A few books, pens and paper, a favourite doll… shit, where is the tiny blue teddy. She’s going to have a conniption if we leave without him. Two hours later after pulling the house to pieces I find him, hidden in the microwave. Of course, why didn’t I look there in the first place. I pack my son’s bag. A t-shirt, a pair of undies and some shorts. I love boys, they are just so gloriously simple. My three teenage daughters have made three separate girlie piles of hair straighteners, bikinis, accessories, bulging make-up bags, frilly knickers, pole-dancing shorts and push-up bras. Just what you need to see Great Nanna. Thank God she’s blind – she’ll be saved from all that cleavage. I pack the family toiletries including my middle-aged regimen of cleanser, night cream, day cream, eye cream, neck cream, body cream and tit cream. I pack the instant tan so I can look fat and orange rather than fat and white. I pack the first aid: Nurofen, baby Panadol, dissolvable Panadol for my tablet-swallowing-phobic daughter, insect repellant, tea-tree oil, band-aids, bandages, thermometer in case the baby spikes a fever, Panadol suppositories in case a sudden attack of vomiting means including a performance opening for Australian Idol winner Damien Leith. Just returned from supporting US bluegrass sensations Crooked Still on the Sunshine Coast and The Powehouse in Brisbane, the Irish troubadour is also booked for his debut tour to Tassie in February.

Summer Babies With the summer breeze well and truly blowing, Shybaby plan to turn up the heat throughout January with two cracking local gigs over the next fortnight. Anyone who caught their NYE gig at Billinudgel will know the band is on fire at the moment so this Friday at Mullum’s Middle Pub offers punters the chance to continue the party. Then next Thursday 26 it’s Aussie Day at The Aussie in Ballina from 4pm where Shybaby will attempt to euthanase ‘racing cane toads’ in the most humane fashion – by plastering them to the back wall with a hefty dose of pub rock. So make the most of summer and get all hot and steamy with Shybaby – you’ll be glad you did.

we need to use the back door for medication, Laxettes… for the mother who can only poo at home. The morning of departure has arrived. John packs an esky with water and sandwiches. The baby has peed on my $3000 king-size bed again; I strip it bare, do another two loads of washing and spray the mattress with vinegar to neutralise the stench. The girls are still sleeping. Charlie is on the couch. The baby is pushing banana into the cracks in the floor. I clean out the fridge, clear the fruit bowls and empty the bins. John cleans the bathroom. I vacuum. The girls wander Zombie-like on their two-hour dressing ritual. After all, they are supermodels. How did they know we were going to have a leaving-home photo shoot? I prepare the animals for their doggie holiday and drop them off. I feed Ivy. I tidy the toy room. I pack towels. Shoes. John is downstairs vacuuming the car. We paint a table so it’s dry on our return. I hang out the sheets. We charge the DVD and pack a few kiddie movies. The kids start fighting about whose turn it is to use the iPod charger. We pack camera chargers, phone chargers, DVD charger. I feel like crying. It’s 38 degrees inside my house and 25 outside. I wonder if my stress is giving off heat. I change the phone message. I hide the spare key. I lock the windows. I get on my hands and knees and scrabble under the desk to turn off the computer. I turn off the kids’ computer. I flush the poo thats been lurking in the toilet. I feed the cat and put out fresh water. I move the rabbits to a shady spot. I enforce family weeing. Husband packs car. Kids fight over what seat they get. A rotational roster for the one lone seat is established. It’s midday. We were supposed to leave at 8am. We head out of Mullumbimby. Oh shit. I didn’t pack my bag!

Stillsons at the Beach THIS WEDNESDAY CATCH ONE OF THE COUNTRY’S FAVOURITE ALT-COUNTRY BANDS, THE STILLSONS, AT THE BEACH HOTEL AND FIND OUT JUST WHAT ALL THE FUSS IS ABOUT. What do you love most about country music? BEN: It’s the white man’s blues. It’s the stories… and the great musicianship that inevitably goes with country music. A lot of country music also has great humour in the lyrics, even when singing about depressing things. Do you think all we cool and groovy people try to excuse our deep and dirty love of country by shoving an ‘alt’ in it to make it seem like it’s okay? BEN: We have no shame in liking country music. Bring on George Jones and Buck Owens, Faron Young… But country is like all forms of music: there’s great country music and bad country music. The term ‘alt-country’ makes my think of skinny indie kids in too-tight jeans playing indie music with a steel guitar or a banjo added in… We come at country more from the folk side of things, way less hip, but way more fun! Did you go to see Dolly when she was in town, or is that too hard-core for you? CAT: Oh, no, Dolly is easy-listening country! Only joking. I would have loved to see Dolly, but musicians

the duo teamed up in mid-2009, and have had a ball with collaboration playing up and down the east coast of Australia. Their fusion of genres, coupled with witty lyrics and obscure view on everyday life makes for solid entertainment and reflection and, when dropped in front of a beat people can move to, they consistently turn heads and get the crowd moving wherever they go. Catch them when they drop in at the Lennox Hotel on Sunday.

generally can’t afford to go to those sort of concerts any more. Should I pay my rent, or go see Dolly… What is the music that has most influenced you? BEN: Well a band’s members all have their own influences. My own are literally too broad to name, though playing steel guitar in the band means I have influences such as western swing, 1940s–1970s country music, jazz etc. JUSTIN: I’m pretty eclectic with what I love, loving bluegrass at present; AC/DC are my fave. CAT: Recently digging Heath Cullen, Mia Dyson and Ani Di Franco is my mainstay. What movie have you watched recently that moved you? BEN: The Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes. JUSTIN: The King’s Speech. CAT: Max and Mary. Where do you collect the narratives for your songs? Are they personal, biographical, or do you hear them in pubs… ? JUSTIN: We always have an ear out for good one-liners in social situations, but I think what hits the most is when you can relate a story to a personal/family situation; that’s when you know you can write truly from the heart. Both of us (Cat and I) were very lucky to not grow up in alcohol/drug problems in our families, but there was a huge amount of anger and anxiety that could be completely debilitating, so it’s great to able to write about that in a song, then have other people relate to it How did you guys meet? Was it the meeting of musical soulmates? CAT: Justin and I met in Melbourne at a bar in Fitzroy in 2006. Justin was playing a show and I’d gone down to scope out his music. I loved what I heard so I propositioned him about playing drums at his next gig… We met Ben in 2009 after our first record Circus was released. Ben came down to watch a show and really dug the band so we ask him over to a jam. It was instant musical love… well, it was on my part, anyhow… I’d say it was a meeting of star-crossed country music lovers. How do you keep the magic going? JUSTIN: The ideal is to keep everything out in the open and take great care of everything; not saying we actually achieve that, but we try! What’s on the cards for The Stillsons next year? BEN: More touring, expanding our touring to the west coast, and hopefully beyond. Maybe a new album next year. We’ll let the year unfold and take us where it takes us! What should we expect for your show here next year? CAT: Wear your dancing shoes and dress sexily; you’ll be getting down to some of the finest original blues, roots and rock.

E N T E R T A I N M E N T

CiNema Review The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo I wonder whether the purists will take to the condensed, English-speaking version of Stieg Larsson’s phenomenally successful story of Lisbeth Salander. To one who has not read the books, the three Swedish films, more in keeping though they may have been with Larsson’s work, seemed unnecessarily drawn out and complex. The run-in to David Fincher’s shorter adaptation has the credits accompanied by ghastly pop video-type visuals and an inferior version of Led Zeppelin’s classic Immigrant Song – the hubris of a Guy Ritchie hung thick in the air and I sank despondent in my seat (as if Sherlock Holmes

wasn’t bad enough). But David Zaillian’s screenplay is leaner and less histrionic than I’d feared, choosing to maintain a hard

focus on the central mystery of whatever happened to young Harriet after she disappeared during a street parade forty years earlier. The diversionary threads relating to the activities of disgraced investigative journalist Mikael Blomkvist (Daniel Craig) and his exposés for the magazine Millennium are given a perfunctory treatment, allowing for greater tension to build around the Harriet case. Comparisons might be odious, but they are also inevitable and the big question I had was whether any actress could hold a candle to Noomi Rapace’s original take on the Lisbeth character. It didn’t seem possible, but, sensational though Rapace was, Rooney Mara is her equal in every way. Her combination with Craig is also more satisfying than Rapace’s was with Michael Nykvist – Craig is an actor with glaring limitations, but his gunmetal humourlessness and chiseled physicality are perfect for the part and he comes a lot closer to being the type that Lisbeth might jump in the sack with than avuncular, pock-marked Nykvist (that she would with either Blomkvist is not credible to me). The last segment, following the disclosure of Harriet’s fate, is concerned with tidying up the peripheral issues and is hurried through as if it were an afterthought – which by then it is, for the drama has exhausted itself. ~ John Campbell

War Horse If you thought Red Dog was sentimental, then you should get a load of this for a master class in double-Brie filmmaking. It’s every bit as cheesy as you would expect, but there is something lacking at its core, some indefinable ‘wholeness’ that you would never expect Steven Spielberg to not attain. Maybe it’s just overwritten, a little bit too episodic and calculated for its own good. The foal Joey is born in a verdant field and immediately connects with farmboy Albert Narracott (Jeremy Irvine). Albert’s dad Ted (Peter Mullan) squanders the rent money on buying the horse at auction and then, blow me down, his turnip crop is ruined and the family is threatened with eviction from their fairytale cottage. To raise money, Joey is sold into the Army, and if you think war is hell for men and women, you’ve got no idea how crook it can be for our four-legged friends. At this point I should desist from being so flippant for, as he always does, Spielberg has attempted to make the world a better place through cinema. He might have succeeded better here if he didn’t lay the ‘heartfelt’ on so thick – it was even too much for me, and I normally lap up this kind of stuff. It goes without saying the horse is magnificent (as is his mate, the black stallion), but there is a crying need for a human of some substance to partake in the story. All of the characters might have emerged from the pages of Enid Blyton and as for Emily Watson turning the soil as Ted’s ever-loyal missus – give me a break! A sepia-tinted homecoming segues into a profiled family hug set against a glowing yellow and orange sky. All’s well with the Narracotts as Joey looks on, the setting sun glinting in his big brown eyes. It’s a lovely movie and I fully expected to be sobbing at the end of it (I’d grabbed a handful of tissues at O Sushi), but surprisingly – and disappointingly – I wasn’t. ~ John Campbell

1. Few imaginations in mainstream cinema rival that of director Tim Burton, but Guillermo del Toro’s must come close. The remarkable Pan’s Labyrinth (SBS1, Saturday, 9.30pm) has a wonderful hidden monster and darker monsters in the above-ground Spanish fascists which populate a small girl’s life. It is a rivetting exploration of metaphor, cruelty, fairytale, the subconscious and dissociation as self-defence. 2. Caterina Murino and Rufus Sewell star in Zen – Vendetta (ABC1, Sunday, 8.30pm), part of a British television series based on the Aurelio Zen detective novels by the short-lived Michael Dibdin. It was filmed in Italy and the dialogue is in English. Detective novels set in Italy by English writers are quite a phenomenon – it’s hard to go past Donna Leon’s series revolving around Venetian corruption, pasta and red wine, not to mention the charming Commissario Guido Brunetti and his insightful family.

Jammed up Victoria Cosford

It’s all very well turning your glut of fruit into jam – but what happens with your subsequent glut of jam? This, she confided to me during my latest visit home, was my mother’s current dilemma. Yes, she would happily make feijoa jam and crabapple jam – and yes whenever the Wheatleys came over for their monthly afternoon tea she would wheel it out with lemonade scones and whipped cream – but really, there was only so much jam an 81-year-old woman living on her own could use. And yes, of course there is jam on toast, she added, assuming her irked expression – but she didn’t really approve of that. Quite right – there was never jam when we were growing up: jam on toast was the sort of luxury I was only able to enjoy when I stayed over at friends’ houses. Same with jam sandwiches which, while of course not remotely nutritious, are occasionally rather wickedly delicious – soft sliced white bread and butter mandatory. But she does have a point. In my refrigerator I have several jars of jam I rarely use and possibly should even throw away; they will have been purchased for the purposes of one recipe only, on the whole (because, beautifully trained daughter that I am, I do not often succumb to toast-and-jam). Jammaking friends have over the years presented me with jars, and I always welcome them, though more for the thought and care and time poured into them than for the jams themselves. It could be said that jam is fruit adulterated, fruit whose very benefits have simmered away through the addition of sugar and pectin, their setting agent. So – as usual my mother is right to sneer – there are no life-enhancing or health-redeeming properties to jam – but what a grim world it would be if those were the criteria with which we selected our pleasures. Of course the challenge for me was set. I began to search my mind for jam uses, and even there at the

There is that old-fashioned slice consisting of a layer of pastry, then jam, then a topping of desiccated coconut , egg and sugar, which is just lovely. Or – simplicity itself, again merely pastry and jam – line a fluted flan tin with shortcrust pastry, fill it entirely with jam – that might take care of a jar! – then compose a neat lattice of crisscrossing pastry strips over the top. Brush with egg yolk and bake until golden. Next time you make muffins, spoon half the mixture into the muffin mould, add a teaspoon of jam and top up with the rest of the mixture for a surprise centre. Apricot jam, thinned out with water, warmed and sieved, is perfect for brushing over a berry cheesecake topping, a glorious glaze. To Sydney friends I served Bill Granger’s Gooey Chocolate Cake with Raspberries, a triumph of a moussey cake achingly rich with raspberry jam and its own baked-in icing. Four enraptured adults, I am ashamed to say, ate the the whole thing minus a mere two slices. And now there is another jar of residual jam in my refrigerator!

Treehouse on Belongil

breakfast table was brightly suggesting to my mother she make little jam tarts for the Wheatleys instead of the eternal scones (briefly forgetting the extent of her inflexibility, her fondness for routine). I was remembering the easy biscuits I used to make at a restaurant a long time ago, called Jam Pinwheels. You could make the shortcrust pastry yourself or even use a store-bought one; I have often made these with puff pastry too. Roll out the pastry and slather it thickly with jam then roll it up and cut it into 1/2 inch slices, and bake until they turn gold, the jam bubbling fragrantly. People love these and you use two ingredients only! (if you count pastry as an ingredient, that is).

In its twenty-second year, the Girls Go Surfing Day encourages female non-surfers and beginners of all ages to experience the thrill of surfing with their friends and family.

To be run this Saturday and Sunday, January 21–22, the program is held nationally at more than 40 schools through the Surfing Australia Surf Schools Network, ensuring the lessons are conducted professionally in a safe and enjoyable environment. The event will take place across a vast selection of Australia’s beautiful beaches at the perfect time of year to introduce new participants to the iconic Australian pastime of surfing.

women’s surfing.’ ASP World Tour Rookie of the Year Tyler Wright said the Girls Go Surfing Day was a great introduction to surfing. ‘Surfing is such a fantastic sport to get involved in and a program like the Girls Go Surfing Day is a great way to meet new people,’ Tyler said. ‘All you have to do is turn up with a bunch of friends and you’re guaranteed a good time.’ Australian female teenage sensation Nikki van Dijk said

the Girls Go Surfing Day was the perfect environment for girls to experience surfing for the first time. In addition to their learn to surf experience, all the girls will walk away with a great participant pack which includes a Rip Curl beach bag, $20 Rip Curl voucher, GGSD t-shirt, sunscreen and a Dolly magazine.

Backlash anonymous letters unless there are strong reasons to protect your safety. And though we are ridiculously lenient in terms of letter length, we do like them 200 words long or less – the more pith the better. Q Q Q Q

How much influence should some bureaucrat at the births registry have over the name of your child? We learn that New Zealand has, for example, banned Benson and Hedges, twins named after the cigarette brand, Number 16 Bus Shelter, and Lucifer. Any boy called Lucifer would inevitably end up being called ‘Lucy’ at school and we assume the bus shelter kid would be ‘Numb’. But is ‘Megatron’, banned by NZ, beyond the pale? Some parents are absolute bastards, though – Bill Lear, founder of the Lear Jet Corporation, named his daughter ‘Shanda’. Ms Lear bravely overcame this disability and went on to found www.learbaylor.com,

If it’s not potholes, it’s dog poo. Some tosser in Mullum scoops his/her dog’s poop into plastic bags and leaves it at front or rear gates of houses or even tied to fences, chiefly around Burringbar and Dalley Streets. This is unpleasant and unsanitary, to say the least. That dog obviously needs to teach its owner some good manners before the excrement hits the air-conditioning.

While the Shire is about to celebrate Australia Day – see our editorial opinion on the chosen date on page 8 – Backlash would like to propose November 21 as Voltaire Day, in honour of the freethinking champion of civil liberties who gave us insightful remarks such as ‘All murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets’. He also anticipated Israeli government policy with ‘An ideal form of government is democracy tempered with assassination’. Any suggestions as to appropriate celebrations on Voltaire Day are welcome at editor@echo.net.au.

cal Oz Day celebrations is the mullet-throwing competition at New Brighton oval. We are assured that no harm is done to flanno-wearing citizens from western Sydney at this event. Fresh from the rodeo, perhaps PETA could protest at the oval to add even more colour. Mullet-throwing techniques can be seen on YouTube at http://bit. ly/xtfMJn. Q Q Q Q

Given some of the correspondence we’ve received this week, it seems to be time to reiterate our letters-to-the-editor rules, even though they can be read each week on the first page of letters. We don’t knowingly run letters submitted to other Q Q Q Q Among the more unusual lo- publications and we don’t run

According to a petition on Change.org, and backed up by news reports and a call for change from the Victorian Law Reform Commission, it is a provocation defence against a murder charge under Queensland law if a gay man comes onto you, also referred to as the ‘gay panic’ defence. This is nasty and absurd and you can sign a petition to change this law at http://chn. ge/zHGi8X. Q Q Q Q

We think it’s important to report that a previously unnamed species of horse fly whose appearance is dominated by its glamorous golden lower abdomen has been named in honour of American pop diva Beyoncé. Says CSIRO’s Bryan Lessard, the fly Scaptia (Plinthina) beyoncea’s spectacular gold colour makes it the ‘all time diva of flies’. Shake that insect booty.
