QLD police paid by CSG company at Kerry protest Hans Lovejoy & Simeon Michaels

Queensland police minister Neil Roberts has defended allowing the state’s police officers to be hired by mining companies as private security. The comments came after it was revealed that QLD police were recently hired by coal-seam gas (CSG) mining giant Arrow to guard the company at protests for approximately $111.10 per hour, per officer. A large contingent of ‘special services’ officers – or SS officers – were present at the recent protest in Kerry, in south east QLD. The Echo reported in January that a tense ten-day standoff ended with a symbolic protest by farmers throwing their Akubras under CSG trucks leaving the area.

Conflict of interest?

Organisers say they have been overwhelmed by the success of this first effort. ‘Our gratitude to the entire community, every single participant, stallholder, volunteer, staff and the weather god is immeasurable,’ says Alison Pearl. ‘We feel the incredibly positive response reflects a great yearning in our region for meaningful, joyous, inclusive gatherings.’ Hundreds of visitors mixed with residents to enjoy music, forums, dance, circus and yoga.

‘I do not accept that there was any conflict of interest in police officers performing special services at the recent CSG protests at Kerry,’ MP Neil Roberts told The Echo. ‘At all times police officers are subject to the direction of the commissioner of police. Officers never become the employees of the person or organisation paying for special service duties. All officers work to

uphold the laws of the state and do so without fear or favour.’ MP Roberts echoed the statement issued by the QLD police media unit on January 27, which explained, ‘special services is a user-pays arrangement for events which require police attendance over and above ordinary policing response.’ The statement claims the SS is ‘appropriate in certain circumstances’ and that, ‘Officers on specials do not take instruction from the organisation that has paid for the specials.’ The police media unit also says the service ‘manages thousands of protests each year.’ MP Roberts said that officers were dispatched to Kerry, ‘to ensure there were no breaches of the peace or trespassing at the site.’ ‘When it became obvious that the need for police to be present at the site was outside of the ordinary course of police business, additional officers were brought in on “specials�.’ The question of how the public can distinguish between an officer on duty and an officer on special services was not answered by the minister. Both are armed and in the same uniform. Arrow Energy is owned 50/50 by PetroChina and Royal Dutch Shell.

Council ‘in the way’ of parks development, says confidential NSW govt report Luis Feliu

A once-secret report reveals the NSW lands department orchestrated the removal of four Byron Council-run caravan parks because Council ‘got in the way’ of its agenda to expand commercial activities. But after six years of the state government running the four parks (The Terrace, Massey Green and Ferry Reserve at Brunswick Heads and Clarkes Beach at Byron Bay), widespread and longstanding breaches of compliance, access and encroachment have yet to be resolved despite the department labelling these breaches as ‘extreme risk’ in its excuse for the takeover. Brunswick Heads residents at a

recent council meeting applauded councillors and staff after progress association and foreshore protection group spokesperson Michele Grant thanked them for their ‘relentless efforts’ in ‘battling the awesome and determined power of the state’.

More detail wanted The once-confidential report produced by the then Department of Lands (DoL) was tabled at the meeting in what staff said was an attempt to give councillors insight as to the reasoning behind the decision to resume direct control of the parks. Councillors have called for a further report providing more detail of the circumstances of the takeover.

Ms Grant said the public release of the 2006 report on the parks’ management ‘finally lays to rest years of speculation’ and provided council and the community with some insight into the department’s justification for the sacking of Byron’s Reserve Trust.

DoL’s agenda and ruthless intent to take over administration of Crown parks and other significant Crown assets along the NSW coast’ after it had adopted a commercial business focus. ‘The plan is maximise profits for DoL, privatise our prized public assets and disregard any adverse impacts.

ing, traffic, noise amenity issues, lack of open space and “overflow� onto adjoining lands, and the ongoing absence of legally required setbacks and buffer zones along park boundaries, roadways and along the foreshore.’ She said they were issues ‘we are still locking horns over today with park management and DoL, and most remain unresolved in the most recent plans of management’. Ms Grant said the department’s ‘latest heavy-handed manoeuvre seeking the compulsory acquisition of hotly contested encroached road reserve lands is simply another demonstration of their thuggish, bullying tactics and the complete absence of due process or negotiated outcomes’.

TASTE TESTING from Monday 20th February 2012.

The gates have been locked on the new sports field complex in Ewingsdale while Council’s lawyers scramble to finalise a usage agreement for the clubs. Little Athletics club president Tim Gotterson says he was given verbal advice – three times – that his group of one hundred and ten kids could start using the grounds immediately. Council’s Phil Holloway, however, said there was no assurances given that it would be free to use ahead of other groups. Mr Holloway told The Echo he ‘made it clear to all user groups that the fields and facilities would not be used until sports field user agreements were in place.’ He did concede that Little Athletics ‘did bring some equipment on the site’ on opening day, and that Council offered assistance in its removal. ‘There was no permission given for the group to keep the equipment there indefinitely.’ Mr Gotterson told The Echo

that the sports group ‘moved all our gear to the new grounds on the understanding we could continue to use the grounds.’ Additionally he says the rugby team has taken over the use of their container at the old grounds ‘and the grounds are no longer adequately marked.’ With last week’s opening pomp and ceremony, the pressure is on Council’s general manager Graeme Faulkner and councillors to explain why, af-

Cornell plans Ewingsdale subdivision Local identity John Cornell plans to develop his 60-hectare Ewingsdale property into a 41-lot residential subdivision. One of the lots contains his existing house on the hillside. The property abuts McGettigans Lane and St Helena Road but new access to the subdivision is proposed off Parkway

Drive. Lot sizes range from 3,263sqm to 21,547sqm, and wastewater will be treated on site. According to the flora and fauna survey by Peter Parker, ten threatened wildlife species have been seen on the land. DA 10.2012.45.1 for the proposal is on exhibition at Byron Shire Council until March 7.

ter two years, a usage agreement was not ready. And why, more importantly, a solution can not be arranged immediately for the interim. A pro forma agreement, for example, could provide the necessary legal go-ahead for the clubs to commence using the grounds. But on that issue, Council staff won’t be budged. ‘We appreciate sporting organisations are keen to use the site,’ says Mr Holloway. ‘How-

ever it is unsustainable to have a situation where use begins without any formal agreement regarding the boundaries of that use. ‘It is not the way to manage a $17.5 million facility.’ The Echo left messages with the mayor, who is currently in Sydney on state MP duties. Deputy mayor Basil Cameron told The Echo that the opening of the sports fields ‘was brought forward prior to the project being fully finalised.’ He says the minutes from the last Council meeting ‘make it clear that satisfactory management arrangements for the sports fields have yet to be put in place, noting the additional cost to the community.’ Last week’s Council minutes were confidential regarding the management tender and interim management of the Byron Regional Sport and Cultural Complex (BRSCC). Cr Cameron questioned why the opening had been brought forward by the mayor, given the user agreement had not been finalised.

infrastructure, Phil Holloway, welcomed the reopening of Lighthouse Road and thanked the community for its patience. ‘Improving Lighthouse Road was an immensely complex engineering job and it had to be done right.’ Late last year, the boardwalk running along part of the road was also reopened.

A resource for Ocean Shores parents

Getting up to some family fun: Parent Resource Centre staff Simon, Rose and Gail (sitting), with visitors Sonny and her parents Meg and Brad. Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Many families, even ‘normal’ everyday happy, healthy families, can sometimes experience difficulties and may find the need for assistance to improve their parenting skills, self-esteem and family relationships. Some families need help to reduce family violence. Thankfully the Ballina Byron Family Centre runs a support service based in Ballina as well as the Parent Resource Centre in Ocean Shores. ‘We are one of the very few services located in the northern end of Byron Shire’, says Gail who is the co-ordinator at the Ocean Shores centre. ‘We support families because parenting is one of the hardest things we do. This is a safe

place for parents and kids to pop in. Sometimes people just need a quiet place off the street and away from the shopping centre to change a nappy or breast feed.’ Next to the Ocean Shores medical suite on Rajah Road, the centre is just about to start their next P5 Parenting course for families in the Shire. The program aims to provide parents and carers with a range of skills and options that can be effective in encouraging positive behaviours in children. The course will be held at the Byron Bay Public school on Thursday mornings in March. For more information about any of the services provided by the Parent Resource Centre, phone 6680 4919 or email: osprc@ceinternet.com.au.

Ewingsdale sports complex management still sought With no tender yet for the management the Ewingsdale sports facility, questions have been raised by the deputy mayor as to the money being allocated to keep it afloat. In the minutes from the last meeting, Council have ‘declined’ to accept any tenders on the basis that no acceptable tenders were received. Deputy mayor Basil Cameron told The Echo, ‘As a consequence, Resolution 12-39 was passed to allocate funds from the general

fund so that Council can undertake management in the interim.’ He says the funds allocated are in addition to the $200,000 already allocated for this year. ‘The reason I voted against any additional funds is that about half of the original $200K is still unspent and it is premature to allocate further funds. At the time I warned that without a clear plan for the management of the BRSCC, it was likely that Council and ratepayers would be saddled with increasing costs.

All aboard the Earthship of the future our elders, from indigenous peoples around the world. ‘Yes, we absolutely must fundamentally change the way we think about the concept of a home.’ In order to change, Reynolds believes that government needs to make sustainable housing a priority. ‘We would like to see the government make a priority to classify basic, sustainable housing as a fundamental right of every human being on the planet.

Mandy Nolan

Michael Reynolds is on a mission to leave a low-carbon footprint with his creative low-cost housing designs using recycled materials. In 2007, he was the subject of the documentary Garbage Warrior, which presented the maverick US architect’s passion for building self-sufficient, off-the-grid communities. And now he’s heading our way with an appearance at the Bangalow A&I Hall on Thursday night. In the past Reynolds faced much opposition for his belief that humans can successfully design and live off the grid.

Fear of change But these days more mainstream people seem to be flocking to his conferences and be willing to consider his thesis. Put simply, an Earthship is a radically sustainable building made of recycled materials. Reynolds believes it is fear of change that has stopped people adopting truly sustainable building and living practices. ‘It has held people back in the past and in the present. ‘It’s fear of change, it’s fear of choice. People have been conditioned to have the choice made for them. They don’t realise that all they really have to do is simply choose to live this way and implement sustainable designs.’ According to Reynolds, Earthships adhere to the following principles: ‘Electricity from the sun and wind, water from rain and snow, sewage is dealt with by sanitary treatment, heating and cooling from the sun and earth, and food is grown inside and outside while buildings are built with natural and recycled materials.’ The concept of Earthships is a powerful reminder that we can step forward, but how do you convince a public transfixed to home renovation TV shows that are unwilling to move towards more sustainable structures? Reynolds believes humanity

needs a disaster, or a colossal slap in the face. ‘It seems that humanity only changes when there is an emergency,’ he says. ‘It is difficult to show people a solution when they refuse to understand there is a problem. ‘Also, money and economics cannot be a driving factor in all of this. People must let go of money as the centre of all things. That is the illusion.’

Sustainable housing should be a priority In order to create radical sustainability, something Reynolds and many others believe is imperative for human survival, we need to relinquish the belief that big houses make us happy. ‘When a person or family has a “simple survival” house that is still super comfortable and in the form of an Earthship or something like it, they are free and really have so much more than the person or family with the big house. If people dropped the personal agenda and chose a home based on what they really simply need, they will be happier, comfortable and, above all else, they will be free.’ Reynolds points out it’s time we started living with more of a view to sharing resources in the way indigenous communities have done. ‘We don’t really own anything. When we realise that, sharing becomes a given’. So how do simple sustainable

and less conventionally shaped dwellings compete in the world of housing investment? In the current market people don’t just build homes, they build future money streams through real estate investments. Reynolds believes it’s time we rethought our concept of ‘home’. ‘We see new, modern buildings next to really old churches and beautifully crafted buildings. This “old way” of building is not around any more. ‘This is because money was not the driving factor back then. Money is the problem, accumulation of wealth is the problem. Most of humanity has been successfully conditioned to accumulate and hoard. We must unlearn what we have learned and seek knowledge and wisdom from

Conditioned to accumulate, hoard ‘We really have no idea what we are capable of. When we get back to the basics and share and understand that we are all together in this, we are all in the same boat… then we can make big changes – then our communities and our governments will make changes and provide proper rights to the people so humanity can get on with evolving and flourishing. ‘These basic rights cannot be governed by money or profit. A basic, sustainable shelter for every human is easily attainable. We simply have to choose to do this.’ Michael Reynolds will present his Earthship seminar at the Bangalow A& I Hall on Thursday from 6.30pm. For more information go to www.earthship.com/australia.

Talking Story Bimblebox World premiere documentary about coal expansion in Australia Bimblebox is a peaceful 8000-hectare sanctuary in central-west Queensland. A remnant of semi-arid woodlands, it is home to a rich diversity of birds, reptiles and other animals, including endangered species. Back in 2000, the rapacious land clearing sanctioned by the Queensland government was off the Richter scale. The potential for Bimblebox to face this same fate motivated a group of concerned local individuals to petition for the area to become a nature reserve. Paola Cassoni was one of these people. Eventually purchased with the savings of these individuals in combination with funding from the Australian National Reserve System, Bimblebox and its numerous and diverse conservation values were protected. In 2003, the Bimblebox Nature Refuge Agreement (ICUN protected area) was signed with the Queensland state government to permanently protect the conservation values of the property. Tragically, holding the status of Nature Refuge does not automatically protect an area from mineral exploration and mining. These activities supersede all other legislation, and are granted right of way over almost all land uses. Lying in the direct path of what will be one of the world’s largest coalmines, Bimblebox is under threat. Not just Bimblebox, though. Australia’s mining boom is creating more extensive and intrusive coal exploration than ever before, and the majority of Australians are unaware of this reality.

Big funding win, but media first to know Luis Feliu

The owner of a north coast tourism company was unaware of its $100,000 windfall in state government tourism funding until The Echo contacted it for comment last week. In a classic case of government by press release, The Echo was the first to inform the company, Tweed Byron Transit, that it had been awarded the funding to develop a bustour operation called Green Cauldron Tours. Last Wednesday, Ballina MP and local government minister Don Page’s parliamentary of-

fice emailed out the press release ‘on behalf ’ of Mr Souris, saying the company had succeeded in its bid for the funding, made under the government’s $5 million Regional Tourism Product Development Funding Program.

Not officially informed But owner of the company, Ron King, when contacted by The Echo last Wednesday, was surprised to hear from the media that the funding had been approved and declined to be involved in any publicity till he

had been ‘officially’ informed. On Monday this week, Mr King said he received an email last Friday but was yet to know the ‘terms and conditions of the funding’, so was unable to provide much detail on the venture, apart from plans to set up tour buses with multilingual audio systems for overseas tourists. Destination NSW spokesman Alan Valvasori told The Echo it was ‘very peculiar’ that the media should first hear about it before the recipient was given a ‘heads up’ to ‘coincide with the announcement’ and it ‘may have been just an administrative glitch’.

Madonna Langan, who spoke on behalf of residents on Tumbulgum Road who live across the Tweed River from the proposed complex, said residents were already impacted on by noise, bright lights and ‘rowdiness’ at night from a hotel in that part of town and they feared a 24-hour drivethrough McDonald’s would increase that. ‘Cheap fast-food outlets attract undesirable people and loud cars – and policing in this town is limited,’ she said. <echowebsection=Local News>

Vehicles travelling on Wilsons Creek Road, past the landslip site, will be restricted to under five tonnes until road repairs are finalised. The road is still restricted to one-lane traffic and traffic controllers are onsite to assist from Monday to Fridays, from 7am to 4pm. Byron Shire Council’s works manager Tony Nash said the geotechnical drilling has been completed and staff were currently waiting on the final report and options to permanently repair the road. ‘The repair works will then need to be costed and funding approval secured under the disaster funding program,’ he said. Mr Nash said approximately $220,000 had been spent to date on temporary road repairs and providing traffic controllers for the area.

Marine park audit seeks to maintain parks A new NSW government report recommending that the state’s current system of marine parks should be maintained has been been cautiously welcomed by conservationists. The Report of the Independent Scientific Audit of Marine Parks in New South Wales was an election platform of the incoming state government but the Greens last week accused the government of stalling. Greens MP and environment spokesperson Cate Faehrmann said, ‘Now that [the government’s] long-awaited report is telling them the “inconvenient truth” that the science behind marine parks is justified we see more stalling tactics’. ‘To now put this report out to another public consultation until June is a disgraceful move by the government and designed to delay the inevitable

– the lifting of the moratorium on marine parks.’ North coast conservationist Dailan Pugh welcomed the audit’s strong endorsement of NSW’s existing marine parks and the need for fully protected sanctuary zones. ‘Hopefully this latest audit will signal an end to efforts to wind back marine conservation in NSW and lead to a more scientific and systematic approach to identifying the areas we need to fully protect in the interests of biodiversity and all the people of NSW.’

“very significant body of research, both international and national, supports an increase in size and abundance of most marine species following the cessation of fishing”,’ chief executive officer Pepe Clarke said.

Independent scientific committee The audit’s primary recommendation is that the marine environment be managed by a coastal and marine management authority as a continuous whole, and appropriately zoned from strict protection to sustainable use. This is proposed to be overseen by an independent scientific committee. ‘The advantage of this is that it would effectively mean turning all of NSW’s waters into one big marine park and would allow for better placement of sanctuary zones and regulation of uses. Scientific oversight is long overdue,’ said Mr Pugh. ‘Climate change and overfishing are identified as the major threats to the marine environment and fully protected sanctuary zones are strongly

endorsed as effective responses, though the audit considers that the primary importance of sanctuary zones is for the preservation of habitats free from extractive human impacts for biodiversity conservation. ‘Land-based pollution is considered to be primarily a threat to estuaries. The audit’s recommendation that the proposed coastal and marine management authority be given a concurrent role in proposed developments and works upstream from a marine park is welcomed. ‘The audit identifies the need to better understand the social and economic benefits and costs of marine parks and to take this into account in zoning in a meaningful and scientifically robust manner. ‘If implemented this will be a significant improvement on the ad-hoc manner in which unsubstantiated economic claims are regularly used to override and limit conservation outcomes,’ Mr Pugh said. The audit report is at: http:// www.marineparksaudit.nsw. gov.au/audit-report/.

Youth House expo seeks vollies Volunteers are being sought for the Byron Bay Youth House. Youth worker Andy McTavish says the Youth House has been quietly operating for the past 20 years, not only assisting local young people in crisis but also from all of the Northern Rivers regions and beyond. ‘Hundreds of young people have had their life course changed due to the assistance of the BBYH,’ he says. ‘Quite simply, without volunteers this service could not function. ‘For the “time poor” there are other creative ways to support our house. In the last year, generous local businesses have

donated clothing, shoes and even a massive food hamper. ‘Also people moving house or clearing deceased estates have generously donated good quality furniture and other household items. At times, cash has been donated as well, which financed activities and outings that we would be hard pressed to provide without assistance.’ Byron Bay is having a volunteer expo on Thursday February 24 from 11am to 4pm at the Community Centre.

altogether and cause a by-election in his seat of Griffith, held by about 8.5 per cent. If that was considered risky then, it would surely be suicidal now, even with the buffer of Peter Slipper’s extra vote.

Most estimates put Rudd’s support at between 30 and 40, with a solid bunch of undecideds who could still be won over. This sounds about right, given that there are 27 caucus members on margins of less than six per cent who would be gone for all money on the current polling, and another 10 on less than eight per cent who are in serious trouble. Sure, some of these are rusted-on Gillard voters, but Rudd has his supporters among the safer seats too. And then there is the senate, where Rudd can count on more than a handful. Gillard might win a spill, but she would be seriously wounded, and Rudd’s mob would have plenty of time to regroup for another crack before the 2013 election. And another crack there would be: Rudd, having announced his intentions, would move to the backbench to sell himself to his colleagues and to the public without inhibition or scruple. He is already viewed far more favourably than Gillard,

and it is likely that the disillusionment and distaste for Gillard would only increase as a result of the fracas. She is already highly on the nose with the punters in my home territory of the NSW Northern Rivers; the only politician more disliked is Tony Abbott, and a lot of voters would avoid both; lefties would move to the Greens and disenchanted moderates to independents or even informal.

around, it’s time to clear the air. If we can’t get back to proper majority government except through an election which we’re not going to get and don’t really want anyway, let’s at least have a change of leadership and see if that helps. But unfortunately it probably wouldn’t. There would still be minority government and there would still be ongoing warfare between the Gillard gang and the Rudd mob. The loser would not retire gracefully; Rudd, as mentioned, would continue to gnaw away and Gillard’s followers are already threatening terrible and untiring revenge if their leader is rolled. And what makes it worse is that both sides seriously believe they are not only the best choice, but the moral one; both feel betrayed and aggrieved. Their vendetta could well assume the dimensions of a holy war. It is all very well for every one from the big wigs of the business community to the foot soldiers of the party’s rank and file to demand instant and conclusive action. The betterread are already chorusing with Macbeth: ‘If it were to be done when ’tis done, then ’twere well It were done quickly: if the assassination Could trammel up the consequence and catch With his surcease success; that but this blow Might be the be-all and the end-all ...’ But it won’t be; it seldom is. And as Macbeth discovered, the consequence, untrammelled, can be prolonged and dire. It could be a long time before the loser ends up as a head on a pole while the survivor marches off triumphantly to coronation and a long and happy reign.

Rudd could perhaps correct the drift; it is worth noting that Janelle Saffin on 4.2 per cent in Page and Justine Elliott on 7 percent in Richmond are both counted in the Rudd camp. But more importantly, there is a growing feeling in the media that a switch to Rudd before the election is inevitable; the only question left is just when it will take place. Increasingly, the reporting of the Gillard government reads like something out of the obituary pages. Commentators compete to make lists of her gaffes, her mistakes, the reasons for her demise. Only seldom do they mention the problems she has faced with a hung parliament and the legislation she has managed to negotiate through it; there is a general feeling that it was her own fault for getting herself into that situation in the first place, so she deserves little if any credit for the successes her struggles have achieved.

Rorting case-management rules

Top quality secondhand goods, furniture and electrical. Large selection of books at CHEAP prices.

David Lovejoy’s article on the rorting of the welfare system (Echo, February 14) and how Centrelink/DEWR actually reward and encourage this rorting was spot-on. We need a federal police inquiry or royal commission into what has been going on with these bureaucracies and their privatised employment providers these last 20 years. I went to an employment services assessment interview last week where my ‘assessor’ started with a barebones computer printout and a blank sheet of paper and said, ‘Tell me a bit about yourself.’ This was after ten years of supposedly intensive case management with many case managers and Centrelink interviews to collect my personal particulars, work history, etc. It seems that once again nothing is on record and the wheel has to be lucratively reinvented. Centre-

link/DEWR has deliberately not collected this information. In 2007 I was ‘assessed’ as having a ‘history of non-participation in the workforce’ and ‘a history of job-avoidance’ after having at least two casual jobs, neither in my profession, in the previous six months and was placed in Work for the Dole for 63 weeks straight. Had proper records been kept and maintained, that assessment could not have been made – especially for people over 50! That 63 weeks paid a few people a lot of money and I got the equivalent of $8.50ph for professional-standard work – indentured slave labour. I was passed through two WftD programs and my treatment in both meant that I actually became less employable locally in my true profession. In one I was used as menial labour to support the businesses of a group of multi-multi mil-

lionaires and it cost the taxpayer as much again as my ‘Newspeak’ did. That is how Centrelink/ DEWR’s contracted employees have been ‘helping the unemployed to find work’ and preparing them for employment. Five levels of supervision over me – all ripping off the system every way they can because these schemes and programs have never been audited properly in any way at all. How serious are the legal consequences of presenting a ‘reference’ that you know is false? The Echo might like to conduct a little survey into how many people there are in this Shire alone who have ‘references’ or ‘qualifications’ for things they do not have a clue about. False instruments created intentionally to deceive have been a feature of this Centrelink/DEWR system – training

that never happens while the contracted minion is very well paid. I personally know a number of people who have wanted to say to the federal police or parliament, ‘Hey, I didn’t do these courses on my certificate; I was standing in shit with no protective gear, pulling weeds at the council sewerage works, not doing a seven-week course in reafforestation and regeneration’, since the mid-1990s. The older unemployed, especially the single males like myself, have been kept unemployed to be used as fodder and regurgitated to provide lucrative incomes and free labour for selected vested interests in this Shire for 20 years. The minister, Ms Macklin, is being very selective in what she investigates and how she is doing it. Ocean Shores

However the connection has never proceeded. Presumably Ingham’s knew of the history and their options when they bought the site – they would have been careless indeed not to have done their homework. One can only conclude that the state agencies entrusted with protecting the environment are toothless tigers that chickened out when it came to being firm, and that industrial workers in this country are a vulnerable species.

Habitat. State Environmental Planning Policy 44 requires that a council should prepare a Koala Plan of Management (Koala POM) before approving development of the sites. Unfortunately the minister for planning has usurped Council and is deciding these developments himself. He and his department consider that the koala POMs don’t need to be prepared until after they have approved the developments, which involve the clearing of koala habitat and surrounding remaining habitat with intensive development. This makes SEPP 44, and this government’s environmental credibility, a farce. It is obviously too late to alter or exclude a development to protect koalas after it has been approved. Back in 2005 an assessment of Belongil Fields for Splendour failed to find any koalas and considered they had a low probability of occurring. Now that Splendour has been gone

for a while the recent surveys have found that at least two koalas are regularly using Belongil Fields.

It’s disappointing to see MP Don Page defending Ingham’s mass sackings. Not because he’s standing up for a big company and not for workers (after all he is a member of the Nats). It’s disappointing because he has swallowed the company line that somehow the wastewater situation has changed since last year when the employees were assured their jobs were safe. And that the issue is being portrayed as jobs versus protecting the environment (in this case the Belongil-Cumbebin wetlands). As past chair of two water committees of Byron Council over some eight years, I am well aware of the attempts by the previous owner (Sunnybrand) to address their wastewater treatment problem. Applications to construct better treatment facilities were submitted to Council and languished undetermined for years in the ‘too-hard’ basket. When Coun-

Letters

Byron Shire B&Bs doing the right thing deserve a break This letter is in response to the article on B&B rates that appeared in The Echo last week. I would like to correct the piece by stating that the 11 B&Bs I represented acted on a proposed motion put forward by Cr Jan Barham our Mayor. We decided to support her proposal of a reduced rate for B&Bs by requesting public access for that particular meeting and giving our side of the story. We strongly believe that the B&B industry is a small and non-intrusive way to provide

overnight accommodation. The hosts are the ambassadors of our Shire as diverse as the people who live here, contributing to the community as a person, an employer, as a tourism operator. In these times when the tourism industry – so important to our Shire – is struggling there can easily be concessions made for us as we are a smallscale industry, which has so far been made to well and truly pay its way. We feel there is unfair competition with holiday

letting and other unapproved accommodation places, which do not comply with any of the processes or inspections we deal with on a regular basis, do not pay GST or increased rates. The decrease in rates would only come to maybe a couple of dollars for the community, but it would be a substantial amount for the individual B&B operators, a small reward for doing the right thing. The process to obtain and maintain the approval to run our business is onerous and

expensive. Requirements include, but are not limited to, hard-wired smoke detectors, fire blankets, extinguishers and other fire safety regulations, disabled access, car parking within the boundaries of your own property with enough space to turn cars, signage or no signage depending on your neighbours, manager living on site, restriction of size of the building, a significant S94 contribution (up to $5000 per bed) and of course business rates. This has resulted in a small,

dedicated and professional industry – maybe 25 shirewide – that offers high quality, unique accommodation places with a wide range of pricing. Our guests receive personalised service and advice on what to see and where to go. Our guests are generally looking for low-key and nature-based experiences. Additionally, we obviously contribute to the job market as we all need electricians, plumbers, cleaners, (relief ) managers and buy our sup-

plies and consumables mainly locally. One of the important requirements of a B&B approval is the fact that a manager has to live on site, which has the added benefit that noise and intrusion on the surrounding area is kept to a minimum. There is someone on site to contact, someone the neighbours know, and someone who lives on the property. There is no problem like two people booking a room and ten staying, no night after night partying, no late night pool parties. We strongly believe our place has less of an impact on our neighbours than if there was a 5-bedroom share house or if we would decide to holiday let our house. Wandy Hochgrebe

Splendour’s decision to return to Belongil Fields provides an opportunity to assess the impact it has on koalas and some other key species. While it needs to be recognised that not all species will have recovered and that we are dealing with a partially developed site, nevertheless it provides an opportunity that should not be missed. Council is the decision maker for this DA and so has an opportunity to ensure that a detailed and rigorous scientific monitoring program is undertaken to assess the impacts. Monitoring should be overseen by independent experts, cover the surrounding bush and start urgently. Splendour should welcome the opportunity. Dailan Pugh

While the Rev Alistair McRae, who is president of the National Assembly of the Uniting Church of Australia, equivocated on the issue of same-sex marriage on ABC RN last Wednesday, Rev Harry Herbert penned a strong op-ed article strongly supporting the cause, published in Thursday’s National Times. (Herbert is executive director of Uniting Care NSW/ACT.) My book, Speak Now: Australian Perspectives on Same Sex Marriage, carries strong articles in favour of same-sex marriage by a Baptist pastor in Melbourne, Rev Nathan Nettleton, and retired Uniting Church luminary, Rev Dorothy McRae McMahon.

Lismore Council libraries takeover must be resisted As you reported last week, at their meeting on Tuesday 7th the member councils of the Richmond-Tweed Regional Library Organisation failed to reach agreement on the future of the organisation. Unfortunately some in our community seem to believe that Byron actually wants to pull out and run its own library services. This is not so and is the last thing Byron Friends of the Library want as we know it would mean a serious reduction of services, eg less book stock, loss of access to the Mobile Library and even the possible closure of one of our libraries. However Byron’s general manager has rightly resisted the Lismore takeover (of dubious legality in my opinion) and, having read the agreement Lismore wants the other councils to sign, I can’t understand why Ballina and Tweed GMs are prepared to go along.

Just a few examples: 1. While Lismore has taken over all library staff and will make all future decisions on staffing levels, etc, individual councils will be responsible for all salaries and any other related costs. 2. The library committee which represents each member council equally and previously ran the organisation will have no power at all; Lismore will be the sole decision maker. 3. Lismore will ‘inspect’ all library premises annually and councils will not be allowed to make any changes without Lismore’s permission. 4. Should any council decide it wants out, it will be responsible for all legal and administrative costs and may have to wait for up to two years for any share of ‘shared assets’. Given Lismore’s current financial situation (deficit over $10 million) they might have to wait a lot longer.

marriage, was sacked at a secret church meeting to which he was not invited. The Lilydale church office yesterday confirmed that Mr Glover was no longer senior pastor, but said the congregation had been instructed to remain silent. We might well ask: if all of these folk claim to be interpeting the will of God, which side is this ‘God’ on, and whose version of deity rules public discourse? Will there soon be as many deities in the so-called Christian West as there were in ancient India? The whole matter of seeking to know the will of God is fraught with difficulty; to want to impose that version on the rest of the population is, too. Neither of the bills to be debated in Canberra in the coming months requires ministers of religion to conduct same-sex

marriages in their churches were the Marriage Act to be amended. Trying to impose wildly differing worldviews on the rest of us is eerily reminiscent of the diktats of fundamentalists in conservative religious societies where women are veiled and homosexuals executed. This is not appropriate for a secular, multicultural society, such as Australia, where religious beliefs and practices are respected but remain, by law, a matter of choice.

Q

OSR’s law

At the Tuesday meeting I heard GMs misinform councillors and could only conclude that they were either unaware of how successful the previous organisation was or weren’t aware of the change in legislation which has made the way we operated now completely legal – and was introduced by our local state MPs for that very purpose. The Friends hope that GMs and councillors in the other shires will have a good look at the agreement Lismore wants them to sign and sensibly reject it so that we can again establish a cooperative organisation of equals – in the interests of ratepayers and library patrons in particular. Jenny Coman

Secretary, Byron Friends of the Library Q Byron Council general manager Graeme Faulkner is to be congratulated for his strong and

officials in most government offices including planning. Other legal abuses abound, such as being disqualified from driving for failing to vote. Tony Abbott is quoted as saying that he supports more rights for the Indigenous peoples as long as such legislation cannot be construed as granting human rights. Human rights are routinely regarded as a barrier to good governance in Australia. When will the dozy Australian voters wake up to the reality Dr Victor Marsh of their own disempowerment Ocean Shores and elect to to do something about it?

P Morgan’s experience with the Office of State Revenue (OSR) is all too familiar (Letters, February 7). The OSR creates and enforces its own interpretation of the law on the hoof as do planning officers and other minor

We are legion

Peter McWilliam in last week’s Letters condemns our beloved Echo for publishing the voices of a ‘tiny minority’ belonging

consistent call for the reinstatement of the Richmond-Tweed Regional Library committee which, under the dedicated guidance of its director, Martin Field, a position he held for 14 years, developed one of the very best regional library services in the nation, integrating the services of 12 libraries in four shires. One hundred and thirty thousand members have computerised access to all these libraries, help available from over 100 friendly staff, and a mobile library for elderly members without transport. The longstanding co-operative arrangement between the four councils was destroyed in June 2010, when Lismore used ‘legal advice’ to take sole control of the library network, disbanding the regional committee. Their treatment of Martin Field, effectively forcing him out of his position, can only be described as despicable. Since the recent election of a

new government in NSW, the Library Act has been amended specifically to allow cooperative management between councils as had operated so successfully here over the last 14 years. But, with the notable exception of Mr Faulkner, the general managers of the other three councils are opposed to the cooperative model and favour Lismore retaining sole control. As Mr Faulkner pointed out at a meeting of all four councils on February 8, control by Lismore means that Byron has ‘no control over decision making but all the liability in the world’, a situation that is ‘entirely unacceptable to ratepayers’. The reasons behind the Lismore takeover are not hard to fathom. Lismore City Council is in deep financial shit. Back in 2008 it lost $7.38 million in shonky CDO investments when Lehman Brothers collapsed. Now they are scraping around for pennies, with an op-

to an ‘hysterical conspiracytheory sect’ that ‘puts us and future generations at risk’. As a part of that ‘sect’ with millions of followers worldwide, I congratulate The Echo for being still financially independent and awake enough to support the voices of ‘minorities’ in order to shed some light on dark places.

ASA say they are not breaking the law. The skydive people usually say it is not their aircraft. I believe they are destroying the peace and quiet of the Main Arm Valley. I have now received from ASA a graph map of the flights around Tyagarah on that day. The sky dive plane’s route looks like a 6-lane highway in the outback. It starts towards the ocean, makes a sharp U-turn and flies over Mullumbimby and then heads towards Main Arm where it flies round and round before returning to Tyagarah. Maybe they get fewer complaints from the less populated areas.

Aircraft noise

On January 21 I noticed the sky dive aircraft; it was omitting its endless droning while appearing motionless high above my house. Most light aircraft come and go but not this one. The noise could be heard on and off from early morning till late afternoon. It appears Byron Shire Council is not interested in noise complaints about their tenant.

erating deficit of $10.95 million and an immediate need to meet a budget shortfall of $187,000. Cuts to library staff and services are an obvious possibility if Lismore holds the purse strings. It is ironic that this is happening when, after a 20-year wait, the new Byron library is nearing completion and 2012 has been declared the ‘year of reading’. But all is not lost. Lennox Head resident and north coast MLC Catherine Cusack is using her considerable energy and resources to bring back the regional model. A letterbox drop for all residents in the four shires is planned as a first step. Lismore mayor Jenny Dowell claims ‘the general public was happy with the current running of the service and no complaints had been made’. To make a complaint, email the mayor on council@lismore.nsw. gov.au. Norm Mackay

supermarket this week, I took the trouble to enquire about their handling of meat products. I discovered the following: mark-down labels on products approaching the end of their shelf life often obscure the useby-date, so the consumer has no idea how fresh the product is. The meat managers in Coles have no knowledge of the shelf-life of pre-packaged Lilydale and other pre-packaged chicken, but according to other pre-packaged chicken products on sale it is likely at least seven days. Coles’s own meat product processed in the store is given a shelf life of four days. This inL Hend dicates that their confidence in Mullumbimby the freshness of their own meat is limited to four days, whereas Coles and chemicals they are happy to sell chicken Having been sold rancid ‘fresh’ processed elsewhere for seven chicken at Coles Ocean Shores continued overleaf

days. Coles have a policy of continually marking down prices up to and including the useby-date, but customers or staff at Coles are unable to physically examine the pre-packaged product in the store. Coles is not prepared to unpack chicken approaching its use-by-date to make sure they are confident that the meat is fresh and fit for human consumption. The local Coles meat department staff has no personal knowledge of the processes at Lilydale, have never been there to inspect their ‘free-range’ farming, slaughtering and packaging plant.

Clingwrap used to package the meat is in contact with the surface of the meat allowing plastic-softening chemicals (ESBO and phthalates) to leach into the meat. If the meat is left for seven days or more, unacceptably high levels of plasticisers will migrate into the meat. The oestrogenic activity of phthalates has been known for several years, and these substances are now regulated in the EU. Not so in Australia. This raises the following questions: How much trouble is Coles prepared to take to guarantee that the products they sell are fresh and do not contain toxic chemicals? Why

is Coles so ignorant about the freshness of the pre-packaged meat products they sell? Why does Coles wait until the last minute of the use-by-date before taking products off the shelf ? I’ve asked Coles to respond and will be interested to see how far they are prepared to go to address these issues. You can make your own conclusions about supermarkets, but I will buy my meat unpackaged from a local butcher who I can ask about its freshness and examine it before purchase.

Tough renting

Like many single parents living in the shire, I have recently been given notice on my rental and forced back into the overpriced rental market. With two school-aged children in my care, a boy aged 17 and a girl aged 10, I require an affordable three bedroom home in the vicinity of their schools. The problem is that the rents on three-bedroom homes in this area are absurdly overpriced and with asking prices between the $400 and $500 mark for anything half decent it is virtually impossible to live L Cronin alone with my children. Billinudgel If I was to share with some-

one else, we could get a mansion in the hills, equipped with swimming pool and lawn maintenance for approximately $600 per week ($300 each). However not all of us want to share with strangers and it isn’t fair or right that we are forced to do so. With so many single parents living in the Shire, it is about time that something was done to address the issue of affordable housing. At one end of the spectrum you have affordable luxury housing for two people paying the rental but at the other end, it is impossible to get a rental property under $400 that is

not damp, dark and disgusting. Through no fault of our own, we are about to be made homeless because there just isn’t anything affordable (under $350 pw) and this will no doubt have devastating repercussions on my children, especially my son who is doing the HSC. It is the lower-end housing prices that need to be adjusted so that single parents like myself can afford to live in a halfdecent home and not spend 80 per cent of our incomes on overpriced rent.

EAST MEETS WESTHEIMER MOST PEOPLE KNOW PETER WESTHEIMER AS A FORMER BYRON SHIRE COUNCILLOR, BUT THERE’S MORE TO PETER THAN MEETS THE EYE. PETER HAS JUST RELEASED HIS SIXTH ALBUM, TO BE LAUNCHED AT THE BYRON COMMUNITY CENTRE ON SATURDAY. Peter, tell us a little about the recording. The album was sketched and composed mainly on a laptop, much of it during train journeys in Europe in late 2009 exploring awesome

scenery in late autumn, some of the continent’s dark history and reflecting on the state of our planet. After returning to Australia I have been fortunate to have production support and creative contributions from Tone Wandaller from Crystal Grid studios. I worked intensively with Dave Basek on music production over a six-month period. Parissa Bouas from the Hottentots did an inspired vocal session which I cut and pasted on to my music recording grid as I also did with the wonderful talent of Amir Paiss on Santoor. It is a solo album but the input from

the creative juices of my fellow Northern Rivers creatives has helped to make this what I believe is my best album so far. How would you describe your music‌ is it more theatrical? My music itself is an integration of many of my previous influences and experiences from being a classical violinist playing in the Australian Youth Orchestra to Indian music on Sitar, Indonesian and Japanese influences from travel to electric guitar, keyboards and singing in a punk, new wave and electro pop band in Melbourne pubs, new age and cinematic influences from

composing music for many national TV documentaries and even a couple of feature films. I also throw politics, the environment and spirituality into the mix, trying to avoid musical clichÊs and using surrealism and humour. My show/performance has evolved from initially a concept of simple DJing, which didn’t seem like much fun and was too static for me, to becoming more and more theatrical and multimedia. Tone W, with his video-mixing skills, and I co-produced a video clip for each track, often using images from my travels and

THE DUMB THING ABOUT SMART PHONES Three years ago I got myself an iPhone. At the time I thought I was buying a fancy telephone. What I didn’t realise was that I was in fact signing up for a life-management system. Not since the blow-dryer has a simple device filled me with such passionate dependence. I love my iPhone. I am not alone. All of us with smart phones are smug in the knowledge that we are more than one step ahead of all those stupid people with dumb phones. I mean why would you use a telephone just to contact people? What is the point of a device if it’s not multifunctional? It’s unbelievable that the technology that evolved from two cans connected with string should have reached its current form. Why, in the old days we were impressed by clock radios! Wow! A Clock and a Radio! Mindblowing! My phone tells me what time it is, no matter where I am; it gives me directions; it holds my notes, my address book; reminds me of important dates; it takes photos, stores my photo albums; keeps me in constant texting contact with my besties all over the world; allows me to google restaurants, search satellites for weather reports, play a myriad of mindless games from paper tossing to fruit ninja, check out YouTube, and even manage my new diet with my Weight Watchers App. My phone is the ultimate personal assistant; in fact I don’t know anyone who could provide the same sort of 24-hour service without a huge pay cheque and an amphetamine habit. Smart phones have changed how we operate. It’s not unusual to see two people out at lunch sitting in silence while they check their texts. My daughter was in the middle of blowing out her birthday candles for the landmark 13th year when she took a call mid-blow. Every time I do a gig there’s at least one person up the front who has not only left their phone on – they actually take the call and have a conversation in the middle of the show. What has happened to us? Have we been sucked into some sort of smart-phone vortex where courtesy and everyday etiquette is no longer required? When someone stoops to return a text or takes

a call mid-conversation you’re basically telling the other person, ‘sorry, someone more important than you, and someone much more interesting needs to contact me. I have no problem making you wait for my self-indulgence as you are merely a real person in front of me.’ Is it the person on the other end of the phone that we are desperate to talk to or is it the iPhone itself that is slowly conditioning us to never refuse its beckoning buzz? There is a certain tenderness in the way it asks us to sensually stroke its smooth and responsive face to access our information. Have you seen the way people clutch their phones? We’ve formed codependent relationships with our handsets. Some are so nervous about missing a beat that the phone is gripped all day. My daughter often falls asleep with her phone clutched to her breast. Technology is supposed to make us stress free, but it’s quite the opposite. All technology does is provide us with constant interruption, making completing simple tasks suddenly complex. Human beings cannot multi-task. It’s simply not possible. Women may boast that they can but it’s actually neurologically impossible. The brain doesn’t work like that. What we actually do when we attend to more than one activity at a time is switch task. People who switch task operate at a much less effective level than those who focus on completing one task at a time. In fact a study showed that stoned people actually operated at a higher level than switch-taskers. The brain goes into stress when it’s forced to swing between activities. A simple activity which may take 30 seconds can take five times as long if performed while switch-tasking. Smart phones have created a switch-tasking revolution. We have become anxious drones enslaved to the requests and reminders of our beeping iFriends. Did you know the average working person achieves no more than four minutes of work before being interrupted by an iPhone or an email? No wonder half the world’s on Xanax. I already have an iToddler; I don’t need any more brain fry. So, for the sake of human relationships, show your smart phone who is boss and turn it off in a National Call to Action on Sunday from 5am to 10am. The catchcry is Breakfast Before Browsing. Morning Poo Before Google. Check these out before you log off: www. MoodOffDay.org and www.facebook.com/ MoodoffDay.

contributions from friends. During a recent trip to Bali I taught myself to shoot and edit my own clips, which I have integrated into the show in the track Karma than Chaos and a separate new clip to a track called Bali Dream from my Transition album. I am seeing myself more and more as a musician and producer who has strong connections with the world of art and design. I have integrated experience I had with acting and producing avant garde and political theatre during and after my university years in Melbourne around La Mama, the Pram Factory and the then flowering of Australian playwrights such as David Williamson, Jack Hibberd and John Romeril. What did you set out to achieve in this album? I wanted to create an album that had international appeal, that had plenty of melody and the oomph of strong bass and rhythm lines. It was originally going to be instrumental like my my past three CDs Transition, Balance and Music Sculptures but Tone suggested that some vocals might work so we looked for a vocalist who was open minded and original with a strong voice. That person was Parissa… Then I developed lyrics for some of the tracks, enjoying the opportunity to still have a voice in politics and social issues. My early works in the 80s Laminex Lovers EP, Move and Sooner than Laughter albums did feature a number of my vocal tracks. The album also gives me a strong cohesive body of works that are gradually being taken up by synchronisation and licensing companies and local film producers that place music with films and docos. How do you feel about the results? The results are still evolving! I have been getting great feedback from listeners to internet streaming radio stations in the USA and Europe, which is what gave me the confidence to go live. Selling and marketing music in the digital world is very challenging yet wonderfully accessible these days. I am getting airplay, reviews and online video interviews on radio and the net. I have industry people here, in LA and New York who like my work and continue to get my music and videos out there. I intend to keep releasing more videos because I love the art aspect of video clips. Over the next few years I am more likely to release single tracks at a time with video clips for each track so I can expand the repertoire for my live performances too. When people buy music these days it is more often than not they have the ability to choose whatever tracks they want rather than ending up with paying for an album with some tracks they may not like so much… It’s the world of digital downloads now with CDs making a slow exit! What should we expect for your local show? A big sound and a big screen with continuous video clips, laser lighting, mask work, dancers, live video mixing and cameras to project around the theatre giving a 3D effect and feel. I will be adding quite a lot of treated vocal overlays and movement. I take the audience on a Tranzworld Express journey. It’s basically a one-hour music, visual and movement multimedia installation designed to provoke, stimulate and entertain. Saturday at 8pm at the Byron Theatre at the Community Centre.

TRAVELLING LIGHT How could a 22-year-old pretentious layabout make a discovery that would elude every other cinematic pioneer for years to come? That’s the question posed in the latest National Theatre production Travelling Light screening at the Dendy this week. In a remote village in eastern Europe around 1900, the young Motl Mendl is entranced by the flickering silent images on his father’s cinematograph. Bankrolled by Jacob, the ebullient local timber merchant, and inspired by Anna, the girl sent to help him make moving pictures of their village, he stumbles on a revolutionary way of storytelling. Forty years on, Motl – now a famed American film director, looks back on his early life and confronts the cost of fulfilling his dreams. Travelling Light screens at Dendy Byron Bay Cinemas at 1pm on Saturday and Sunday.

BIG GIG BACK ON! After a sensational sellout New Year’s Eve show with Fiona O’Loughlin, the perennially popular Big Gig at the Ballina RSL kicks off the 2012 program with a very special performance by comedian Greg Sullivan direct from his whirlwind tour of Singapore. Dalby-born Greg Sullivan has never lost his country-boy charm. With a natural intelligence that

outshone the average cowboy, Sullivan learnt that if he couldn’t keep his head down then he’d better become a standup comedian. It was a natural choice for Sully who suddenly found the perfect venue for his voracious appetite for knowledge, trivia and hitherto unknown facts about human existence. Sullivan is one of the most experienced and accomplished standup comics and entertainment personalities around. Sully worked at Triple M for fourteen years, as a writer for the first seven, and then graduating to co-host of the top-rating breakfast show The Cage. He has been invited to the world-famous Improv Comedy Club in Los Angeles, performed at major festivals such as the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the Sydney Comedy Festival Gala, and has appeared in a variety of roles on television shows such as Good News Week, Home Delivered Humour, O’Loghlin on Saturday Night, The Today Show and A Current Affair. Despite a lack of sporting prowess, Greg has entertained at functions for the Queensland Reds, the Queensland Bulls, the Brisbane Broncos and the Brisbane Lions, and stayed in camp with the Queensland State of Origin team. Through his affable charisma, dedication and entertainment value, Sully has developed an eminent and likeable public profile throughout Australia, and it’s no wonder. Sully just isn’t one of the funniest blokes on the circuit, he’s also one of the most generous. Greg is joined by support act Silvina, the Uruguayborn, Israel-raised girl from Ocean Shores. Silvina has just returned from a season at Woodford Folk Festival, has performed at Nimbin Mardi Grass and is a regular on the local comedy scene. MC Mandy Nolan is back again with her signature self-effacing rant on love, life and the universe. Free at 8pm on Thursday at the Ballina RSL.

a m n i c e e r view The Grey This is one of those movies in which halfway through it you are ticking off events as they are bound to happen (we’re only too familiar with standard operational procedure – it’s all

genre is, really), and you are on the verge of a smug chortle. But something imperceptible happens that leaves you, fifty minutes later, wrung out with nervous tension and pensive about the tale’s entirely unforeseen ending. Ottway

(Liam Neeson – my companion referred to him as ‘the world’s ugliest actor’, which I thought a stroke harsh) has a miserable job as a wildlife hit-man at an oil field in Alaska. His wife has left him (adding some poignancy to the mood must have been the recent death, in real life, of Neeson’s wife Natasha Richardson, after a skiing accident) and he is on the verge of suicide but – oh joyous serendipity – a wolf turns up and he shoots it instead. Then he’s on a flight out of there with a bunch of roughnecks who are due some R&R. The plane comes down in blinding snow – the crash, the best I’ve seen, is brilliantly terrifying – and Ottway finds himself the alpha male among a handful of survivors. They are up against not just the sub-zero environment, but a pack of wolves with a really bad attitude. Though it’s reasonable to hate Nazis and the Ku Klux Klan, casting animals as homicidal maniacs seems excessively anthropocentric, but if you’re able to overlook that sad take on nature, the trek to safety becomes riveting. The boys’ numbers will dwindle – who didn’t know that? – and you can count them as they drop, but when it got down to the last four standing on the edge of a cliff, with the fangs behind them and the abyss below, I was well and truly wrapped-up in the suspense. I figured the bloke with the glasses would be next to go… Anyway, it’s not as silly as it sounds and, with moments of introspection and insight, the musing on life and death in Ottway’s father’s elegant poem makes it well worthwhile. ~ John Campbell

Martha Macy May Marlene Martha (Elizabeth Olsen) and Macy May, as she is known by Patrick (John Hawkes), the charismatic, Charles Manson-like leader of the cultish commune to which she belongs, and Marlene, the identity offered by her and the other women members when answering the phone, are all the same person. Out of the public eye in a genteel rural location, what the impoverished group stands for, other than a strict hierarchy in which the girls eat after the boys and the ritual rape of new female inductees by Patrick, is never stated. Nor is it important, for this vagueness allows director Sean Durkin to focus sharply on the group’s suffocating obsession with itself and its adherence to manipulative Patrick’s rule. Martha runs away to re-unite, after two years, with her sister Lucy (Sarah Paulsen), with whom she had fallen out – again there is next to no back-story to explain the siblings’ relationship. It forces us to start from scratch in figuring out what is going on, and in making our judgments without prejudice. Lucy and her husband Ted (Hugh Dancy) are welcoming at first, but it soon becomes apparent that Martha is psychologically unknowable to the couple – she thinks nothing of entering their room to lie on their bed while they are making love. And all the while, the eerie, nihilistic attraction of the commune is retaining its hold on her. Durkin (who also wrote the screenplay) tells his story of alienation and amorality with edgy, fleeting jumps between Martha’s two competing realities. A cold palette and a spare soundtrack, in which silence is a potent factor – the quietness and stillness of the murder scene compounds its horror – add to the unease. Olsen is fantastic, playing her part with a naïve sexuality and an unsettling, at times infuriating, blankness – what is happening inside her head we can never be sure of – while Hawkes, reprising the more menacing elements of his Teardrop from Winter’s Bone, epitomises the calculating sociopath. An ambiguous conclusion only cranks up the creepiness. Excellent. ~ John Campbell

1. Not even über-adventurer Brendan Fraser can handle a T-Rex in the 2008 version of Journey To The Center Of The Earth (NBN, Saturday, 7.30pm), written by the imaginative Jules Verne in 1864. Verne is the precursor of modern scifi and you can read more about him – and download some ebooks – at http:// ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/v/verne/jules/index. html. 2. Megan Fox has the body in question in the black comedy horror flick Jennifer’s Body (Eleven, Sunday, 8.30pm). The once desirable, snooty Jennifer becomes possessed by evil and sets out to eat the boys, who must be protected by her friend, played by Amanda Seyfried. The flick comes from the Oscarwinning combo of director Jason Reitman and Diablo Cody, responsible for the wonderful Juno – this is not as good. Cody, who once wrote a blog about her life as a stripper, also created the TV series United States Of Tara. Perhaps the best high school horror flick of all time is The Faculty, directed by Robert Rodriguez.

Victoria Cosford When it came to entertaining, K was the most stylish woman I knew. And yet this stylishness stopped there; she was otherwise an unremarkable middle-aged woman who spurned makeup, whose short-cropped haircut resembled a grey helmet, whose legs she never bothered shaving, whose footwear was principally a pair of ungainly, sensible sandals. Feeding other people transformed K. Apart from dinner parties she would stage Sunday lunches in the old Potts Point apartment she shared with her husband. Once she had guided her guests up a ladder through a door in the ceiling they were able to step out into a small paved courtyard shaded by an umbrella – Sydney fell away below and beyond – and shortly a tray of drinks would appear, slightly chilled Spanish sherry in pretty little glasses, perhaps, or a South Australian rosĂŠ. There might be fat warmed olives, or one of her coarse terrines, but the time I remember best was when she presented gougères. Still hot from the oven, they were golden balls whose centres exploded in your mouth like lava, a liquid heart of cheese. Like eating a cloud, that’s how light they were, until you hit that molten middle. I dragged out K’s gougère recipe on New Year’s Eve, deciding that the French champagne we planned to drink all night required a suitably glamorous accompaniment. It was a fiddly sticky thing to make but not at all difficult; I had used proper French gruyère (at a staggeringly high price from a local deli); the platter I passed around fresh from the oven was met with approval. My gougères were lovely, and the recipe will follow.

Sip your margarita in our casual covered garden and enjoy the fresh clean flavours of Mexico. Everything home made. Always tasty Not Spicy Hot. Sample some of our house salsas, such as smokey chipotle or fiery habanero. A great selection of Tequilas, imported beers and wine. t 'VMM NFBMT GSPN t #BORVFU NFOVT BWBJMBCMF

Gougères – a French word – are the product of a special sort of pastry called choux. Anyone who has eaten an ĂŠclair or a cream puff or a profiterole has eaten choux pastry. The word choux in French means cabbage and derives from an 18th century French pastrymaker who employed this particular type of pastry to make little buns which he decided resembled cabbages. This is a fun pastry to make! Unlike many pastry recipes that rely on chilled ingredients for success – butter, hands – the dough is composed of a boiled mixture of both butter and water to which flour is added. Similar, in fact, to the base for a bĂŠchamel or a roux. The mixture is cooked until it forms a smooth ball to which eggs are then added and it is beaten until it turns into a paste. This in turn is piped or dolloped onto a baking sheet and baked, first at a high temperature then at a lower one. K’S GOUGĂˆRES Bring 250ml water and 60g butter to a fast boil. Remove from heat and stir in 125g sifted plain flour. Stir vigorously to form a smooth paste then return to the heat and cook several minutes until a smooth ball is formed. Turn out into a bowl and cool. Whisk three large eggs and beat gradually into the mixture. (You can do this in a food processor.) Dice 100g gruyère and incorporate most of it into the paste. Drop tablespoons of mixture onto well-greased baking tray and dot with remaining cheese. Bake at 220°C for 20 minutes then at 190°C for another 10 minutes. Serve hot with drinks.

young kids into the competitive arena. They all supported me in what I was doing. It forms the foundation of your competitive surfing career.’ In clean one-metre peaky waves at Duranbah, Perrow unleashed a bevy of forehand moves to accrue a heatwinning total of 11.93 out of a possible 20.

Minister for citizenship and communities Victor Dominello MP and minister for sport Graham Annesley MP have today called for applications for the 2012 Refugee Youth Sports Sponsorship Program. The Refugee Youth Sports Sponsorship Program provides newly arrived young Australians who are experiencing financial difficulties the opportunity to apply for support in meeting the costs of participating in sport. ‘Refugees come to Australia with great determination to make a positive life for themselves and their families’, says Mr Dominello. ‘One of the best ways for them to make new friends and learn more about their new local community is to get involved in local sporting organisations. The results of this program have been outstanding and almost 300 young people in NSW have been able get started in their game of choice’. The program can help young people meet the costs of registration, uniforms and equipment. ‘I recommend all newly arrived young people who are thinking about joining a team

to consider their eligibility for this program’, Mr Dominello said. Minister Annesley reiterated the value of sport in uniting communities and said the feedback from sporting organisations involved in the program was very positive. ‘Sport is a universal language’, he says. ‘It brings people together from different backgrounds and helps break down barriers. One of the main benefits of this program is it provides an avenue for young people to play their chosen sport while adjusting to the new lifestyle and opportunities this state provides. Minister Annesley urges all sporting organisations in NSW to support the program and consider the community benefits the 2012 Refugee Youth Sports Sponsorship Program offers. The Refugee Youth Sports Sponsorship Program is managed by the NSW Community Relations Commission. For more information about the program, including eligibility criteria and how to apply, please contact Angelique Vongsaya on 02 8255 6767.

Works begins on Tallowood Ridge Despite the recent wet weather, the multi-awarding-winning Integrity New Homes is the first builder to commence work in the Tallowood Ridge Estate in Mullumbimby. Workers broke ground on the first house almost two weeks ago and, if all goes to plan, the home will be completed by July. Integrity New Homes project manager Jason Carpenter was on site last week for his daily inspection of the site. He says that the six-bedroom house with a large deck is being built on lot 26 which is a 877m2 block. ‘This is a reasonably goodsized home’, says Jason. ‘The construction is mainly cladding with some a little bit of

horizontal Colorbond and there is a tin roof on it. It will really work in well with the theme of the area. It should look really nice.’ Jason says there is also a large Tuckeroo tree which is being preserved and will be a feature of the property’s garden. Integrity New Homes was founded in 2007 by the father-and-son team of Darryl and Glenn Leet. The company immediately began their multi-award-winning company career starting with the HIA Professional Builder of the Year Award (NSW) up to last year’s HIA Mackay Custom Built Home of the Year in the $400,000–$550,000 price range.

How to handle anti-pet bodies corporate and landlords Auctions & Inspections p47

Buyers and tenants are not aware of their rights when it comes to having pets, says a property expert from Investors Club. Investors Club manages more than 17,000 properties Australia wide. Karen Horsfall, body corporate manager, says buyers can easily challenge draconian measures to completely ban

pets; they just need to be well briefed on council rules and enter negotiations with the spirit of compromise. ‘It’s true that not everyone likes pets,

but “no pet” policies are not hard and fast. We are starting to see more of independent adjudicators ruling against bodies corporate,’ says Karen. Australia has one of the highest incidences of pet ownership in the world. Twelve million Australian households are associated with pets, with 91 per cent of pet owners reporting they feel ‘very close’ to their pet . ‘By-laws that prevent an owner or tenant from keeping any animal, even something as inoffensive as a single goldfish, are not reflective of Australia’s love for animals. Tenants and buyers need to be aware that bodies corporate cannot absolutely prohibit the keeping of any animal in any circumstances,’ says Karen. The Investors Club’s five tips for negotiating

pets with a landlord or body corporate: 1. Know your local council restrictions: Check your council rules. A standard rule is for a property of less than 600sqm; the maximum number of dogs that can be kept is two, regardless of size. 2. Seek permission first: An applicant must have approval from the body corporate before bringing or keeping a pet within a scheme. Doing this without permission can ruin your chances for negotiating further down the track. 3. The body corporate must be fair and reasonable: A refusal to grant permission for a pet should be based on consideration of the wellbeing of the animal, not the owner (eg refusing to grant approval to house a miniature pony in a three-storey walk up is reasonable). 4. Check clauses in your lease agreement: Clauses could already be available in your lease for you to challenge the body corporate or landlord. 5. Check with the owner: Before you go to the body corporate, you must first have agreement from the landlord. Remind your landlord of the tenant market they are missing out on by excluding pet owners.

Backlash Backlash felt a definite realignment of the chakras on the weekend with the first Spirit Festival in Mullum. If you hold your hand open, palm down, about five centimetres above this page, you’ll notice the difference in the aura. Now get ready for the Byron Bay International Film Festival (www. bbff.com.au/) this Friday through Sunday. You can also get daily news bites at www. echonetdaily.net.au. Q Q Q Q

It’s business as usual as the Libs declare the state open for uranium mining. ‘Economic growth’ must be protected, you know, bugger the consequences for people and the planet. Here’s a radical idea: ‘Perpetual economic growth is neither possible nor desirable. Growth, especially in wealthy nations, is already causing more problems than it solves.’ – http://steadystate.org. Or David Suzuki’s position: ‘The pursuit of endless growth is suicidal.’ Q Q Q Q

The state government’s marine park audit found, surprise surprise, the science was good. But the Libs/Nats have kept the moratorium on and have staged another round of ‘public consultation’. The need for marine parks is a no-brainer really. As the Greens’ Cate Faehrmann observes, ‘If we want a viable recreational and commercial fishing industry into the future we need to protect key areas to maintain healthy fish stocks.’ You can download the report here: www. marineparksaudit.nsw.gov.au/ audit-report. Q Q Q Q

As Deborah Tabart from the Australia Koala Foundation www.savethekoala.com predicted, federal minister Tony Burke is postponing the decision to list the koala as threatened for a further ten weeks. She notes in her online diary, ‘If I were to look into my crystal ball I’d see the government

A reader submitted this pic of a couple of tackers enjoying the sun hut ‘that adorned South Golden Beach for the last month, until Council took it upon themselves to remove it… Their reason? “Oh, you know, once there’s one, more’ll pop up.”’ Council’s executive manager of community infrastructure Phil Holloway told The Echo Council had received a complaint about the structure and possible safety issues. He said upon inspection it was found that the unsecured structure could become unstable due to high tides and during coastal storm events. ‘If the sun hut was to become unstable, it could potentially cause significant injuries if it was to fall over on a child or adult.’ At this stage there are no plans to construct a deck at South Golden Beach like the one at New Brighton. The sun hut is currently at the Byron Bay Depot and can be collected by the owner.

list koalas in some areas as threatened and others as not. Koalas in forestry, mining and resource sectors could be left unprotected and left to perish as thousands before them have tragically done.’

Tim Moore and Ron Dyer, the co-chairs of the NSW Planning System Review which visited the north coast, have announced a two-week extension to the closing date for submissions on the Review’s issues paper, The Way Forward for Planning in NSW? The new closing date for submissions is Friday March 2. You can find the issues paper at http://planningreview.nsw. gov.au/IssuesPaper/tabid/117/ Default.aspx. Backlash will be totally surprised if any real reform comes to the planning system. Like the Byron LEP, it’s a never-ending story with no conclusion in sight. (See also www.neverendingstory. com.)
