Shai pleads Tales of hashish assassins revisited not guilty Hans Lovejoy

Shai Major has pleaded not guilty at the Byron Courthouse for operating a backpackers hostel. The Echo previously reported on December 13, 2011, that the compliance raid on his leased property by Council allegedly found 19 people in the house, including eight schoolies. Council staff told the media at the time the accommodation was unsafe and unsanitary. Mr Major, however, has strenuously denied that, and many of the other claims made against him. ‘At no time anyone ever paid to camp in our backyard or to sleep on a mattress in the garage like the council falsely claimed. Also the claims that the “schoolies” paid $800pw each are over the top and incorrect. Our home is not a slum. It is a friendly and safe share-house of happy and creative people who live, study and work in Byron, and enjoy living together.’ Veteran local filmmaker Richard Mordaunt has just returned from war-torn Syria and will present his doco The

Mr Major told The Echo he was appalled by The Northern Star reports regarding his case, and says the newspaper should issue him a public apology. ‘I have no arguments with anyone’s opinions, only with the falsification of the facts and the derogatory remarks published by The Northern Star and other APN publications. ‘They did not even bother to contact me to comment regarding the claims made by Byron Shire Council.’ Mr Major also sent a parting shot to Council management. ‘We are living in the best part of the world, yet are being treated like little kids by smallminded bureaucrats that waste our money on needless actions, and care nothing for our actual quality of life.’ Mr Major has requested to be given the evidence Council has against him and is representing himself as he says he can’t afford a lawyer. Council has also dropped proceedings against the property’s owner. A new hearing date has been scheduled for April 20.

Last week’s targeting and killing of journalists covering the Syrian conflict was a chilling reminder to Byron shire filmmaker Richard Mordaunt of his luck in filming there ‘just before the whole thing exploded’. Richard, whose feature documentary The Secret History of the Assassins is being premiered at the Byron Bay International Film Festival, had returned to Syria and Iran late in 2010 to ‘bookend’ his personal journey of discovery which began there some 50 years earlier. As fresh-faced 20-year-olds, Richard and his filmmaking colleague Michael Oliver were part of an Oxford University expedition sponsored by the British Museum that set out to explore the Castles of the Assassins in northern Persia. They were following in the footsteps of the great English traveller Freya Stark and were among the first western travellers to explore the Val-

ley of the Assassins and the film they made then was shown on David Attenborough’s Travellers Tales in 1961. Fast forward to November 2010 when the now mature-aged filmmakers decided to reunite and revisit the story, spending six weeks in Syria filming for their current documentary and, just before Christmas last year, were able to film the end of their fascinating story in Iran.

Origins of Assassin In their latest film, they explore the ‘origins and history of our word assassin’. The film is also a journey of discovery inside the Islamic world both in northern Iran and modern day Syria. ‘In a certain sort of way, it’s a coming of age story; we had no idea then, we were just kids. We climbed 12,000foot mountains to get to this valley and found things that hadn’t been discovered since the Mongols destroyed the castles in 1256,’ Richard told The Echo. ‘At the time, we had two doctors, both Iranian who spoke Farsi (Per-

New president for Bangalow club A board meeting of the Bangalow Bowling Club last week saw club president Martin Colbert stand aside and the election of Brian Mackney, convener of the Club Rescue Committee, to the position. The change follows on the voluntary administrator returning control of the club to the board of directors. A group of local business and professional people had formed a club rescue committee in an effort to prevent the club going into liquidation. At the meeting the club’s board acknowledged the work of the committee, passing a resolution to consult with it on matters of major significance. In standing aside as president Mr Colbert said, ‘The community has made it clear they want to see change in the club… it is important that the membership and the community now get behind the committee.’ Mr Mackney thanked Mr Colbert for his vote of confidence. ‘There is much to be done, but with the effort of the board working closely with the rescue committee, a much stronger team has been forged.’

DEAL OF THE WEEK

Ballina joins Byron on library stance Luis Feliu

Ballina councillors have backed away from a move tentatively favouring Lismore City Council’s management of the Richmond Tweed Regional Library (RTRL) and will join Byron Shire in considering a return to shared administration of the service. Councillors voted 6–4 on Tuesday to rescind a previous decision giving in-principle support for the administrative council model by which Lismore Council has been running the service for nearly two years, and which critics had described as a ‘takeover’. The Ballina councillors decided to reserve their position on the library’s future until further advice was received on recent changes to the Library Act, which paved the way for a return to the independent shared model of running the service. They are also waiting for Byron Council to report back on

several options discussed at a recent meeting of all four member councils of the RTRL. Tweed Shire Council recently voted to back Lismore’s current running of the service after being told the previous county-council style of governance was not legally sound.

Tweed backs Lismore A public meeting called by north coast MLC Catherine Cusack earlier this month decided to run a campaign for a return to the previous co-operative model of management. The following day at a meeting of the member councils, Byron councillors and staff expressed serious doubts about Lismore’s running of the service and called for more information on options to run it. At Thursday’s Ballina meeting, Cr Jeff Johnson said the current draft five-year library agreement had ‘gaping holes’ in it and if Byron council opted out, library services would de-

cline. Cr Johnson said it would be prudent to wait for the further advice from the State Library on the new legislation and a preferred model would be one in which each council had input on staffing, services and resources of the library. But Cr Sue Meehan said the current service-level agreements between Lismore and the other councils was where Ballina council had more scope for input and considering further options was just ‘beating around the bush’.

State advice sought Cr Peter Moore said there was deep-seated fear in the community that library services were being reduced under the current model and that other options should be looked at to ensure services were not diminished. Cr Robyn Hordern said the ‘misplaced passion’ for the library to return to its old style of governance had moved to

an ‘aggressive level’ and singled out Byron mayor Jan Barham for ‘aggressive attacks’ on councillors favouring Lismore’s management suggesting they had not read all the reports on the issue. ‘These aggressive acts are seriously counterproductive,’ Cr Hordern said. Cr Sharon Cadwallader praised former longtime director Martin Field, who earlier told councillors that Lismore council’s own solicitor had concluded the library should be run under a county council model. Cr Cadwallader said Mr Field had taken the library from one of the worst in the state to one of the best before the Lismore council took over its running. Mayor Phil Silver said the most important thing was to keep all four councils ‘in harness’ saying the recent meeting with member councils was ‘most embarrassing’ with councillors ‘squabbling with each other’.

Public awareness ‘Through inspiring people to take charge and become stewards of our oceans we hope to stand together as one voice towards a sustainable future’, says Karl. PCFML which currently has more than 100 members, was founded on the principles of creating long-term positive change to marine conservation issues worldwide. ‘Our aim is to work with inhumane and unsustainable industries worldwide’, says Karl. ‘We want to approach those industries with understanding, education and respect.

Karl says that the only way to create positive change is through working with people. ‘We need to understand the

O’Farrell called on to protect sharks Southern Cross University lecturer Dr Daniel Bouchard has called upon the O’Farrell government to reinstate protections for grey nurse sharks across the state following a report revealing its dwindling population. The review called for protection of known ‘aggregation sites’ for the animals, including at Fish Rock, near

South West Rocks. He told ABC radio last week, ‘We know what the threatening processes are; they’re relatively easy to stop‌ and we know there’s plenty of support for it now.’ ‘So it’s frustrating that the relatively simple step to reinstate the protective levels is not going ahead as quickly as possible.’

Tweed councillors last Tuesday gave the green light to the controversial 24-hour McDonald’s drive-through outlet as part of a $3 million complex, which includes an IGA supermarket, at the town’s northern gateway on Tweed Valley Way. Last week, a cafe owner pleaded with councillors on behalf of eight cafes and eateries to reject the proposal, saying scores of local jobs would be lost and some businesses

forced to close if the fast-food giant were allowed in. But mayor Barry Longland, while admitting it was a divisive issue for the community, joined three other councillors to approve the development on a deferred commencement basis with 122 conditions. Crs Katie Milne and Joan van Lieshout opposed the move. Crs Longland and Warren Polglase said they would support it, claiming it would be legally difficult to defend a refusal on planning grounds.

Council planners had recommended conditional approval, but rejected a proposed 10-metre neon-lit pylon sign with the company’s famed ‘golden arches’, reducing its height to five metres as well as reducing its overall brightness.

From about 1982, 10cc went fairly dormant and through soso albums and member disharmony and break-ups, the band took some time to feel okay about touring again. ‘Now there are just three of the band that first came out to Australia in 1977’, says Rick. ‘Graham Gouldman, Paul Burgess and myself.

The Brunswick River and bar came under the spotlight during Operation Blue Water with three bar crossing incidents occurring during the nine-day campaign. A total 19 penalty notices were issued and 200 vessels checked in the north coast region, says Roads and Maritime Services acting general manager of maritime operations Trevor Williams.

The three incidents on the Brunswick bar all occurred on the first Sunday of the campaign. ‘One vessel capsized on the bar, the skipper of another vessel fell overboard while unsuccessfully attempting to cross the bar and a commercial vessel with seven on board sustained structural damage while crossing the bar,’ Mr Williams said. ‘It is crucial to check the con-

ditions before attempting to cross a coastal bar. If in doubt, don’t go out, and remember that the safest time to cross is on an incoming tide.’ He said thankfully all on board were wearing lifejackets. The state-wide blitz saw 1593 on-water safety checks conducted by Maritime Boating safety officers, and an average compliance rate of 89.8 per cent across all coastal regions.

International Women’s Day 2012 honours the contributions of women in the Shire as an inspiration to all women.

Ballina’s Ramada hotel remains tourist facility

Performances

Ballina councillors have rejected a bid to turn two luxury Ramada Hotel penthouses into permanent residences. Planners had recommended conditional approval for the change of use of two of the lots of four units on the top floor to long-term residential but councillors voted 5–3 to refuse it. The upmarket units, staff said, accounted for a total of 1,600 visitor nights last year but considered the loss would have a minimal impact on the local economy. Staff said, however, that they feared it could also set a precedent for other unit owners wanting to do the same, which could jeopardise the hotel’s current use, but that overall it would add to the diversity and mixed development of the town centre.

A spokesman for the business that operates the hotel, Ballina Booking Service, told media this week that approval would set a precedent for other units and was the ‘thin edge of the wedge’ that would affect the town’s tourism industry.

Could affect toursim Cr Sue Meehan said she was ‘shocked’ to see the plan was recommended for approval and it was ‘not Council’s job to address individuals’ financial issues’ and the unit owners had taken the risk of running the units as holiday letting. Cr Meehan said the building was not designed for permanent accommodation but as a hotel. ‘This offers us the chance to be a destination; we have lots of top-end homes in the shire but not top-end accommodation. A change from tourism to residential is definitely not

in the public interest,’ she said. Cr Hordern said that in 2010, Council voted against turning 94 of the hotel’s 115 units into permanent residential use and the Land and Environment Court upheld that, at a cost to council of $400,000, and she believed the court decision should ‘stand for the whole building’. Cr Keith Johnson said the plan to turn the two large units into permanent accommodation met policy ‘sufficiently to warrant approval’ and would not create a precedent because they were the only ones of that size in that locality. Crs Alan Brown, Moore and Johnson were in the minority by voting to approve the plan, while mayor Phil Silver and Cr Sharon Cadwallader abstained from the debate and voting because of non-pecuniary conflicts of interest. www.echo.net.au

Illegal tree feller ‘happy’ with $11,000 fine Luis Feliu

An Upper Main Arm property owner fined $11,000 after pleading guilty to illegally removing 220 trees said he’s happy to have cut them down as it dramatically reduced his fire risk. Christopher Langton, a well-known local architect and musician, was fined in Mullumbimby Local Court last Thursday with removing the trees without consent. It was brought against him by Byron Shire Council under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (NSW). Council’s governance manager Ralph James said the fine would send a message to other property owners thinking about felling trees illegally and that Council was ‘committed to ensuring land in the Byron Shire is used in a sustainable way’. But Mr Langton told The

Echo he decided to fell the mostly gum trees around the downside slope of his house after the lethal Victorian bush fires two years ago. He said some fire experts had suggested to him he fell the trees to minimise the fire risk and doing so would give him an ‘asset protection zone’ around his home.

Didn’t get DA ‘But basically, I didn’t get a DA (development application) for it. In the context of a big property with around a million trees here, we’re only talking about a few trees around the house,’ he said. ‘When I first moved here 25 years ago, there were no trees, it’s all now regrowth. In that 25 years there’s been a large amount of forest grow around here because people don’t slash or put cows in paddocks.

‘Since I took the trees down, there’s now a huge amount of rainforest trees so I’m very happy to have taken them down. It’s an absolute boon in terms of fire survival.’ Mr James said ‘the law does not allow individual property owners to remove trees arbitrarily. ‘The court’s view is reflected in the fact that when Council’s ecologist visited the property, the 220 trees removed included species used as koala habitat. There is ample scope under Byron Shire Council’s tree preservation order to remove trees that are deemed undesirable. This list contains more than 40 species. And there is no prohibition on pruning or maintenance of trees as part of regular gardening work,’ he said. Mr James encouraged residents to contact Council if they had questions about tree removal.

Feud unlikely to smash Labor Party

O

kay, let’s put it into perspective. What has been going on in the Labor Party is not Volume 26 #37 February 28, 2012 apocalypse now. It is not the end of the world and it is not the end of the party. It is just a stoush over the leadership; a particularly vicious and nasty one but just a stoush nonetheless.

This was an issue that went to the heart and soul of the party, a rift that could not be healed. Eventually Hughes led his followers out of the party room to merge with the Nationalist opposition. The young John Curtin tearfully accused Hughes of trying to smash the Labor Party. Hughes replied prophetically: ‘I couldn’t do that. No-one can smash the Labor Party.’ And he was right, but it was 13 years before they returned to the treasury benches under the hapless Jimmy Scullin, who was faced with not only the great depression, but two separate splits: one from the left wing followers of the radical New South Wales Premier Jack Lang, led by ‘Stabber Jack’ Beasley, and one from allies of Joe Lyons who, miffed at having been denied the treasury portfolio, deserted to the Nationalists to become the first leader of the United Australia Party.

servative regime under John Howard from which, it was said yet again, it could never recover – until Kevin Rudd … And now, once again, it is all doom and gloom. Some hysterical commentators have claimed that the present kerfuffle is comparable to the great upheavals of the past, but obviously they have never read the history. The Gillard–Rudd saga is, of course, immensely damaging to Labor and will almost certainly cost it government, but it is no more likely to destroy Labor than the ongoing vendetta between Andrew Peacock and John Howard was to destroy the Liberals back in the 1980s. And, when you boil it down, for the same reasons: it is a massive ruckus over nothing much that matters, a simple clash of hurt feelings and wounded egos, a bonfire, to coin a phrase, of political vanities. This does not mean that the emotional commitment of the contestants, or of their supporters, is any the less passionate or sincere; as we know, it is often the most trivial slights that induce the most enduring resentments. But it does mean that yes, the party can and will get over it – eventually. The talent and commitment is there: Chris Bowen and Tanya Plibersek, to name but two of the most interesting of the new guard, will not pick up their bongos and go home just because the oldies are bluing in the kitchen. And while they may not know a lot about Billy Hughes, or like what they do know, they would certainly agree with his thoughts of 1915: no-one can smash the Labor Party. If no-one has managed so far, it’s certainly not about to happen over the present tantrums.

predominantly Roman Catholic right and the radical, occasionally pro-communist left. This took on the dimensions of a holy war, but this time those who deserted the party did not join the enemy but formed their own Democratic Labor Party, which kept the ALP from office for 15 more years. And it underwent further internal skirmishes until Gough Whitlam emerged as leader to take it to victory in 1972, a victory, which many, once again, believed could never come to a party, they had written off as damaged beyond repair. But then, after three frenetic years, the governor-general Sir John Kerr sacked the government, delegitimising not only Whitlam but also the entire party in the eyes of many voters.

How to manage a sports complex Q Council minutes regarding the management tender and interim management arrangements for the new sport and cultural centre are not confidential as reported in The Echo last week. They are available at www.byron.nsw.gov.au and provide some illumination on the access problems cited by sporting groups and others. Council voted to abandon tenders for the centre and has yet to successfully finalise a management contract. To date, other options considered in the original business plan have also failed to establish a satisfactory management contract. As a result Council has had to fall back on the least favourable option canvassed in the business plan. That is Council management of the facility. The minutes show that Council voted $158,000 from the depleted General Working Fund for interim management. This is in addition to the $200,000 already allocated this year for transitional arrangements. Under these arrangements the facility has restricted opening hours and draws scarce funds away from other general pur-

pose use. It is not clear as to whether further funds will be required to meet these interim arrangements. It is a shame that a majority of councillors has pushed aside warnings from sporting groups and a minority of councillors that a ‘Rolls Royce’ facility was not required and unwise given Council’s financial situation and unmet community needs. It appears likely that the community will be paying a high price for this for many years to come. While an external manager may cost less, it seems it may come at the cost of restricted community use. It has now become necessary for Council to reconsider its use and management so as to get a better long-term deal for the community. Perhaps a greater emphasis on the facility as a cultural centre provides an opportunity for greater community participation and increased revenues to offset the substantial running costs.

Mullum’s rotunda

(remember that song ‘There but for fortune go you or I’?) leave their names on the record, and at least once a week the homeless who have been deprived of a public roof can pop around to their homes and put up in the shed or garage and get themselves a bit of shelter that way. Drunk or disorderly behaviour is not okay in a public space, but just sleeping ‌ where’s the harm?

I was saddened to read in last week’s Echo of Council’s plans to remove the rotunda near the Mullum neighbourhood centre. Saddened because of the comments stating that the rotunda is used as a sleeping space by homeless people and some residents have objected to the space being used for that purpose. Well, what a sorry state of things when folks with a nice, dry, spacious home can begrudge folks with no home a public space to shelter for the night. Especially a rainy night, and we all know there have been plenty of those lately. My suggestion is that the meanies who don’t want those less fortunate than themselves

Cr Basil Cameron

Goonengerry Q I attended the opening of the

$17+ million Byron Regional

Sport & Cultural Complex on Friday February 10, and agree that the mayor’s baby, the cultural and entertainment centre, is beautifully presented (despite the expensive American-sourced timber flooring now having to be lifted again) and eventually it will serve the community well. As for Richmond MP Justine Elliot’s comments that this facility ‘would greatly benefit local kids’: well, this is debatable. Any kids or teams in the north of the Shire will have to hire buses, or suffer extra petrol costs each week when parents have to drive their kids 20km down the road. That’s if they ever get to use it. Front page of The Echo (February 14) reports that ‘the fields were unveiled during an inspection tour around the facility.’ I was there before lunch on opening day accompanied by the Brunswick Byron Athletics Association president, and we walked across, not around, the sports fields on both sides of the built-up area of the cultural centre and canteen facilities, and we found that

the fields were very soggy on a beautiful, sunny day. In fact, in some sections the grass was so waterlogged it smelled of rotting vegetation (grass) but I guess that’s to be expected when you build sportsfields on a flood plain with a peat bog underneath! There were very few visitors who actually walked across the fields because there was ample to occupy everyone around the beautiful cultural centre, eg teams playing exhibition games in the multi-purpose hall, the scent of BBQ snags luring hungry families close to the buildings, and other interesting displays. At a distance though, the fields looked great, until you walked on them! I suspect that the soggy fields are the real reason that Council did not give permission for 110 members of Little Athletics to actually use these grounds immediately. Even so, it’s pretty pathetic for Council to argue that sportsfield user agreements and plans of management are not in place two years down the track.

at 2.30 in the morning, could you please live up to your principles a bit more and show some compassion and love for those in nearby streets trying to sleep? This might be helped if the responsible authority, Byron Shire Council, set up a process to ensure that the event conditions are met and not just hope for the best when approving a major event in the middle of Bronwyn Sindel Mullumbimby.

We spent money at local business houses but will probably not return to Byron Bay in a hurry.

A&I Hall last Thursday evening. Over more than half his lifetime Michael has developed an amazing sustainable home built from recyclable materials. It’s fully self-sufficient and it works! With about $6,000, a working model the size of a studio could be built in Mullumbimby in 4–5 days. It’s happening around the world, so it would be great if the Alternative capital of Australia, Byron Shire, showed the initiative to examine closely and then implement if successful. The people of Haiti, Anadaman Islands off India, Jamaica and Sierra Leone appeared well satisfied. Michael builds with the locals and trains them along the way. Other more elaborate models are now being built in the USA, Norway, Mexico, Holland, Canada, France and England. This is awesome. Watch DVD Garbage Warrior or visit www.earthship.com for details.

What’s happening at Santos? I have been a Shire resident for over 20 years. Having been a member of organic food coops since the 70s I sought out organic food when I arrived and, of course, found Santos. I became a shareholder, not as a personal investment, but to support the strong sense of community based on wholesome food, and genuine care for each other and the environment. That is what attracted me to stay in this area. Some of Santos’s staff have been there as familiar faces watching my children grow as I watched theirs and a sense of mutual care and family has arisen from their genuine, generous, and dedicated commitment to people. Now many of the staff are resigning, on sick/stress leave and early long service leave. This clearly implies difficulties

in the workplace, not a loss of interest in the very industry they have had lifelong commitments to. I am sad and alarmed. What has happened? I can’t imagine Mullumbimby without Santos, without a vibrant hearth. An organisation based on ethics must be ethical in its care of its people, staff and customers. Let’s wake up before it’s too late.

In an impressionable discussion between Kerry O’Brien and me, the Australian media icon concluded that my idols, he and Sir David Attenborough, ‘…both deal with animals in our field of work.’ Indeed it is MacCallum’s written words that paint a humorous yet truthful picture of Australia’s prime ministership, ‘Good drinkers, bad swimmers and unlikely heroes.’ Condemnation and ridicule is expected by most in such a public profession, yet MacCallum concluded with a reminder to us all of the importance of every facet of the political spectrum – the good, the bad, the unlikely (and unlucky) – ‘Politics is one of the greatest inventions of the human race because it is the only way to make decisions without killing one another.’ (Loosely quoted.) A thoroughly enjoyable, enlightening and riveting launch.

me, it’s the latter. Having lived in Mullumbimby for some 27 years, I’ve been a Santos shareholder for most of that time. Santos has felt like my family and a substantial part of my community. And now? All is not well... in fact, not very nice at all. Many of the Santos staff I’ve known and loved over the years or decades have left, resigned, gone on stress leave, gone on sick leave or taken early long service leave. Staff morale at this level is untenable. I feel sad. Ironically, in the Santos stairwell there is a poster with a quote and photograph of Martin Luther King Jr: ‘Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.’ Deborah Lilly

Infuriated Having lived in various countries, none has been as infuriating as Australia. Most governments are a source of frustration to the general populace, but the Australian government takes the cake. Their complete and total disregard for the people and land seems to grow exponentially daily. They no longer even try to hide the fact that it’s all about mining. Do we really elect these people? It can’t be possible. Our taxes even pay their salaries. That really pisses me off. They do nothing for our benefit. But they sure do plenty for big mining companies. Fools be those who thought the government was supposed to represent the people. Nikki McKee

Coercive system is no way to treat the unemployed Q The

current system of dealing with the unemployed was devised by the Howard government for ideological reasons and because privatising the system distanced them from and absolved them of responsibility for the unemployed. I was surprised when it was adopted practically without alteration by Labor – but Labor seems as unsympathetic to the unemployed as its predecessor. Bill Shorten’s remark of a few weeks ago that they didn’t want to raise benefits as it would dis-

courage people from looking for work is ignorant to say the least. He has obviously not an inkling of how difficult life on the dole can be. I can remember a time in my life on the dole when if I had to buy, say, washing powder and shampoo in the same pay period I would have to survive on tea and bread and butter for three or four days at the end of the fortnight. The system fails because it is authoritarian and coercive. Harassing people to find work – to make them jump

through impossible hoops – only breeds resentment. The result of this resentment is that people expend all their energy and ingenuity devising ways of outsmarting and avoiding the pressure applied to them. Now of course the cynical will say that if people were not pressured they will not look for work. I think this is not true – people are much more likely to look for work out of boredom and financial need if left unharassed. Those who don’t wish to

work should be allowed this option. The alternative of pressuring people is a much more expensive one than leaving them alone. I think people want to be productive – the reason that many longterm unemployed habitually rise at the crack of noon is due to a sort of guilt. The daylight hours are the time when most people are busy and productive. Sleeping in thus helps obliterate this period of productivity and at night when traditionally one

can ‘waste time’ at one’s leisure becomes their main unguilty time of activity. Of course, Therese Rein’s business interests may have something to do with the decision to retain the old system but in thinking this I would also be accused of cynicism. David Gilet

Are you ready for digital TV?

Analog TV signals are being switched off around Australia, region by region, between 2010 and 2013. After this date, all areas of Australia will receive digital TV signals only. You can check to see if you’re ready for digital TV by answering the questions below.

1

Watching digital TV

For each analog TV you own, do you have a set top box OR digital TV recorder OR alternatively do you have a TV with a built-in digital tuner OR subscription television?

2

Recording digital TV

Do you have a digital TV recorder OR is your VCR OR DVD unit connected to a set top box?

3

Receiving digital TV – antennas, cabling and reception

Is your reception ok? If your current analog reception is good, in most cases your digital reception should be fine as well. However, if you do have concerns about your reception, you may wish to contact an Endorsed Antenna Installer to check your antenna and cabling to find out exactly what you’ll need.

Help is available If you can’t answer ‘yes’ to all three questions, don’t worry. Approved Digital Advisors at participating stores can provide advice on digital TV and recording equipment and help you understand your options. Endorsed Antenna Installers can assist with cabling, antenna, satellite and reception issues. To find your nearest Approved Digital Advisor or Endorsed Antenna Installer – or if you have any other questions – visit our website or call our information line.

ary 21). When Howard brought in the $3.6 billion Welfare to Work initiative, it was plain to see who was going to clean up the $3.6 billion. You made me laugh about the ‘blank’ piece of paper. I was about 55 years old at that time and had a piece of paper pushed towards me with a caricature of a little man standing at the foot of a staircase (stairway to heaven?) and was then asked ‘What are your hopes and dreams?’ Honest to god! I was actually very sick at the time (I have since been diagnosed with an incurable neurological disease that can be debilitating at times) and I was finally sent to an agency that was meant to know how to deal with sick people. I finally felt that there was some hope for me as so far I had been hauled through their system and made to ‘jump through hoops’, but my nightmare was just about to begin. I was asked very personal questions about my personal hygiene by male case workers and went on to have to deal with six different people, having to go through all my symptoms over and over. What a horrible journey that was, but may I add there were one or two people who were as helpful as they could possibly be. I still wonder how or if that $3.6 billion is being spent. What happened to it? This was definitely a Basil Fawlty situation and I was right in the middle of it! D O’Connell/Cullen

Bangalow continued from page 10

The triple bottom line of sustainability as a three-legged stool with legs labelled economic, social and environmental is mostly not understood or is being denied in western society. Because this culture prefers the economic, the economic leg on the stool is far longer than the other two, overturning the stool and warning of unsustainability. More economic activity, rather than the social and the environmental, makes the situation worse. In other words, preference for economic sustainability takes the society away from triple bottom line sustainability, not toward it. Jan Mangleson (Letters, February 7) has emphasised the economic as a reason for supporting the festival. She also mentions that the younger generation would prefer a festival. In days of yore, festivals celebrated events such as getting the harvest in or events of spiritual significance. These days festivals take place simply because they can, at the cost of environmental and social sustainability. It is not an ideal role-modelling by the older generation for those whose continued on page 14

The mysterious disappearing bandicoot Story & photo Mary Gardner

An oncoming car threatened me, so I stepped further aside to the narrow verge and paused. The stink of exhaust streaming past me was strong but there was another stench in the air. I sniffed through the jumble of vegetation. There I found a dead bandicoot (Isoodon macrourus). Nocturnal and shy, but living here inside town – are bandicoots why the neighbour’s dog barks at the bushes every night? Unlike cats, these creatures will eat worms and grubs as well as small lizards and mice. Unlike rabbits, they dig and eat underground lily bulbs, tubers and fungi. They’re omnivores, like us humans. The official family name is Peramelemorphia, which means ‘with the body shape of a badger’. But they are not badgers and do not dig burrows for homes. At best they nestle deep within grasses. If you build a small wood-stick cabin in a quiet part of your yard, they may adopt it. The word ‘bandicoot’ is European slang dating from 1790. They were likened to ‘bandicota’, a word from the Telugu language in India for a type of rat. From the 1830s, bandicoot featured in unhappy new

proverbs like ‘as miserable as a bandicoot’ or ‘as poor as a bandicoot’. There also arose the verb ‘to bandicoot’ which means ‘to surreptitiously dig up potatoes without disturbing the green tops’. Bandicoots remain a mystery. Marsupial mammals, both sexes have a pouch underneath that opens to the back. Their sharp front teeth are in multiple pairs, as with other carnivorous marsupials such as quolls. But their second and third toes are fused together, as are those of kangaroos and possums. The adults are solitary. The female is only pregnant for twelve days, the shortest time for any mammal. Recently, a birthing was filmed. A female lies on her back, licking and wetting a one centimetre

trail from bum to pouch. In five minutes flat, a membrane sac wiggles along. The female licks it open. The blind, hairless young secure themselves each on a nearby teat. They are weaned at two months. A couple days later, a new litter is born. With their high birth rate, bandicoots can outbreed rabbits. So where are they all? In fact, where are all the small native mammals, ranging in size from rat to rabbit? Our quolls, bilbies, sugar gliders, potoroos and more? Since 2011, a team of international specialists hosted by Australian Centre for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis are collaborating on this very question. They report a wave of small mammal extinctions first hit southern

Australia early in the last century. Since the 1970s, another wave appears to be underway throughout northern Australia, from the Kimberley to the Kakadu. Their final report is out soon. In the south the problem appears to be foxes. To the north it’s cats. These are making the best of European land uses to expand their ranges and take out small mammals. Paradoxically, one of the selfsustaining ways to halt them is re-establishing a strong dingo presence. But how, from city to outback, are we to do that? This debate is to be streamed live on the internet on March 27. You can put your questions to the panel. (Visit http://bit.ly/ wGQjIM.) Back in the Northern Rivers, another introduced killer is the car. In 2004, Taylor and Goldingay’s survey counted one road kill for every four kilometres per week. Bandicoots died at twice the rate of possums or magpies. Now what can we do about that? More about this and other topics on Mary’s website www. tangleoflife.org. Join her on March 7 at Santos in Mullumbimby at 6pm for the latest in films and experiments about Nature Science.

Analog TV cuts out June 5: time to get digital ready Federal minister for broadband, communications and the digital economy, Senator Stephen Conroy, has announced that 540,000 households across northern NSW will switch to digital-only, free-to-air television on November 27. The digital signal for analog TV will be switched off on June 5. ‘More than 84 per cent of households in the northern NSW switchover region have already converted at least their main TV to digital, according to the latest Digital Tracker survey,’ Senator Conroy said in a press release last week. ‘For most households, conversion will be relatively straightforward. ‘Residents can choose to either connect a set-top box or digital recorder to an existing analog TV or upgrade to a digital TV.’ Digital TV will provide residents with better quality pictures and sound as well as widescreen format with 16 TV channels from the ABC, SBS and commercial broadcasters available – including all the new digital-only channels such as ABC2, ABC NEWS24, ABC3, SBS2, SBS HD, ONE,

Eleven, GO!, Gem, 7Two and 7mate. ‘Households in areas unable to receive terrestrial reception will certainly not miss out and will be able to access the Government-funded Viewer Access Satellite Television (VAST) service from May 27,’ Senator Conroy said. The government-funded VAST service provides all 16 free-to-air digital channels plus a dedicated news channel that features news bulletins from regional commercial broadcasters. ‘The government’s Satellite Subsidy Scheme will be available to assist eligible households in communities that need to move to VAST… The Satellite Subsidy Scheme reduces the cost of accessing the VAST service and has already assisted over 9,000 households across Australia switch to digital TV,’ Senator Conroy said. Further support will also available through the government’s Household Assistance Scheme. Assistance includes the supply and installation of a set-top box, a demonstration of how to use the equipment and, where necessary, antenna and cable

Good old Israel Can we please agree to never again have any letter in The Echo which is about the problems in Israel and Palestine! I’m sure I’m not the only one who thinks these letters have received more than their fair share of your pages. This is an international issue, only very indirectly of relevance to our region (because so many Israelis moved here during the last decade), but there are many more international issues which deserve more attention, yet don’t get any coverage! To the handful of people interested in this topic I suggest that a) you sit down together and try to have a civilised discussion face to face (I’d like to see that!), or b) search on the internet for a more suitable platform to continue your written argument. Juergen Klein

Mullumbimby What is it about Israel? For centuries this seemingly insignificant little nation has been the world’s focal point. Is it merely geopolitical or something deeper, maybe spiritual? I believe more so the latter. The bible has many interesting prophesies regarding Israel. In judgment God scattered many Hebrews among the nations

There are several areas across Byron Shire that are digital black spots, as many residents wanting to upgrade to a digital TV will have discovered already. To check if you’re in a black spot go to www.digitalready. gov.au/when-do-i-switch/ mySwitch.aspx and type in your address. As Senator Conroy notes, if you’re in a black spot you should be able to access the government’s VAST service: www.digitalready.gov.au/whatis-the-switch/VAST-service. aspx. The details of eligibility can be found here: www. digitalready.gov.au/whatis-the-switch/VAST-service/ Eligibility-and-technical-advice. aspx. If you already have a subscription service like Austar, you may already get the channels you want. However to get VAST, you’ll need to buy a digital TV (if you haven’t already), satellite dish and set-

top box with smart card and have the lot installed, which could set you back $2,000 or so if you’re not eligible for the Household Assistance Scheme. The dish and box alone are expected to cost $280.

over 1,500 years ago, saying they will be despised and persecuted. Then He would bring them back – 1947 Israel is recognised a nation again. Prophecy seems to indicate that this generation will see a period of trouble of seven years that the world has never experienced before (Matthew Chapter 24) In that period the Antichrist, a dictator (benevolent of course), by deceit and trickery will form a One World Government and religious system (again benevolent of course) – Revelations 13:11. This is promoted by the world’s media in some form

every day, grooming as many as possible so in due time, given the right circumstances, contrived and other, will agree to it, many believing it to be the only alternative to the world’s troubles. Whether we see this or not it will happen; every biblical prophecy to date has come to pass. Right now there is an unseen spiritual battle of fallen angels and fallen man, who have rebelled and oppose the only one who can bring true peace to all upon the earth, the Prince of Peace Jesus Christ.

EDEN AT BYRON Everyone knows that manure and compost are essential for healthy soil. It doesn’t matter what type of soil you have – it will be better if you add manure and compost regularly. We call it ‘organic matter’, and it adds nutrients, increases biological activity and improves soil structure. It helps to loosen heavy soil and to add structure to sandy soil. And better soil means healthier, happier plants with fewer pests and diseases.

BEFORE THERE WAS JACKASS THERE WAS RALPH ZAVADIL. HIS CABLE-ACCESS TELEVISION SHOW, THE CAP’N VIDEO SHOW, RAN IN THE US FROM 1990 TO 1995, SPAWNING A SMALL BUT LOYAL CULT FOLLOWING. Each week Ralph performed a series of idiotic and occasionally dangerous stunts, challenging the sensibilities of his small audience for five seasons. With the advent of the internet and reality television still years away, his unique brand of gross-out stunt comedy was truly ahead of its time. Twenty years on, with a sense of nostalgia, Ralph decided to give Cap’n Video one last shot for the same cable station that cancelled him years earlier. Beauty Day is a feature-length documentary chronicling the life and times of Ralph Zavadil. Seven grabbed a chat with this very fascinating subject. Ralph were you a born daredevil or was it an aberration that occurred later in life? I was adventurous as a child but the daredevil stunts started growing as my Cap’n Video character developed. It started off with roof-top tobogganing and then I had to top that one, so telephone-pole sledding was a natural progression (in my mind anyhow). I think I knocked some sense into my head with the failed Pool Plunge though. Do you lie in bed at night thinking of weird shit to do? While I lay in bed I mainly like to sleep or screw. The weird shit comes to me as I go about life thinking of ways to make mundane chores more exciting, such as shaving the hair off one’s face with flaming alcohol or having a healthy breakfast in 30 seconds by snorting eggs. Why do you think human beings want to watch other human beings do wacky dangerous stuff? I’m pretty sure the reason that hairless monkeys enjoy watching others do goofy dangerous things (especially when they fail and get injured) is to live vicariously through these actions and feel better about their own banal existence. Much like slowing and gawking at a car accident; they say to themselves ‘WOW‌ good thing that wasn’t ME‌’ and drive on feeling better about life. What made you do it? Laughter. I enjoy hearing people laugh and knowing that I’ve (hopefully) brightened someone’s day.

What about your mum? She must have been a nervous wreck! My Mom Rocks! She didn’t really know what I was up to until my show aired on TV, until the Pool Plunge (where I broke my neck and she was notified by the police) so I smartened up after that. I didn’t know how negatively that skit affected my parents until I saw Beauty Day, so now I feel a bit ashamed at all the bullshit I put them through. Are you frightened of dying? I mean do you ever think ‘fuck it, what if I stuff this up’? I’m frightened of not living! Too many people are afraid of taking chances and trying something new. I learned at a very early age to appreciate every second that I am given, and you can’t do that if you travel this journey with your head up your arse. How did breaking your neck break you into a wider market? The local cops made a copy of the accident (1995) and took it to a convention in NYC where Real TV took a look and licensed it from me (1999). After it hit the airwaves it ended up on YouTube (2005). My show had been off the air for 10 years so it really didn’t do anything for the ratings. Did the advent of the internet and the popularity of shows like Jackass make you feel a bit pissed off that you were ahead of your time? I’m not one to look back into the toilet and check out my shit; I like to look at the buffet table in front of me! In this electronic world, everything old becomes new when it is rediscovered and I hope that Beauty Day brings laughter and my insanity to an even larger audience. What’s your limit? In comparison to what they show on Jackass etc do you believe you actually went too far with the puppy stuff? Perhaps outline to the readers a little what happened‌ Unlike the Jackass guys, I won’t play with faeces or urine or stuff things up

my arse‌ but all power to them‌ they made a lot of money and became successful doing that. I got kicked off local Cable 10 (as a volunteer‌ it actually cost me to put on my show) after my Easter show. I decorated my house by hanging a bunny up on bungeecords and made chocolate Easter puppies by squirting chocolate sauce on their backs and licking it off. They were never in danger (as none got close to their mouths) and if it had, they would have had to ingest half the bottle to bring the theobromine level up to toxic levels. The details are in Beauty Day. What did you do in the years when you weren’t doing your cable show? I was videotaping rock bands until I found out they had no money to pay me, so I switched to weddings. I also went to theatre school for three years, and grew pot. As people get older they tend to get more conservative; what happened to you? Did you ever see Benjamin Button ? Seriously though, I saw lots of my friends becoming ‘normies’ and conforming to what society expected them to be. I promised myself that I wouldn’t lose my joy for living and start chasing after shiny shit. So far it’s been a blast ! How did you meet Jay, the director of Beauty Day ? I joined Wastebook to see who was pirating my videos and Jay Cheel got hold of me there. He was a fan of the show while growing up and wanted to do a 15-minute short on the Pool Plunge for the internet. I thanked him for his interest but declined, whereby he continued to pester me for a year with new ideas. We finally sat down together; he showed me a demo reel and I agreed to do one interview. After he cut together a very cool blurb, I could tell that he was ultra-creative and, with the help of Primitive Entertainment, his internet short turned into a full-length feature. Whooda thunk? How has the doco been received‌ I mean docos have a lot of serious credibility! I saw Beauty Day for the very first time with 400 strangers at Hot Docs in Toronto and the response was overwhelming! People were gasping, gagging, clapping, but best of all laughing till tears were spurting out of their eye sockets. I hadn’t seen that reaction to my stuff since 1988 when I used to play my videos on the big screen at a local bar, so it was very rewarding. Jay Cheel turned my fart into art! People who have seen the movie have not asked for their money back so I guess they enjoyed it, but there’s not a lot of money in documentaries. With a limited advertising budget not many people were aware of the movie, so it’s great that festivals like Byron Bay pick up the slack and bring non-mainstream films to life. Does Captain Video have children he doesn’t want to try this at home?! Sorry, don’t wanna spoil the movie. Do you think we have a whole new generation who finally gets it – showed my kids, they loved it! I really hope so! I don’t hang out with any 12-year-olds but I hope they put down the mind-numbing video games, get outside and create their own games. Life is too short to be stuck in front of a screen, unless it’s to get inspired by Beauty Day ! Beauty Day is one of the extraordinary must-see documentaries screening at the Byron Film Festival (kicking off Friday 2 March). For more information about sessions go to www.bbff.com.au.

FAT CLUB I’ve never liked groups. They make me feel like an outsider. I have never run with the mum pack at any of my kids’ schools; I don’t like yoga or chanting – not because I don’t value them as activities, I do, I just don’t like the herd mentality that seems to occur in large homogenous groups of devotees. I don’t like religious groups. I don’t like fun runs. I’ve always been a bit of a loner, I guess. When it’s agreed that everyone thinks one way, I will make a point of thinking the opposite. Luckily my oppositional disorder preceded the medication, and I am now an adult woman capable of fierce and constant dissent. I actually like arguing. I find it relaxing. In fact for me, it’s almost a form of exercise. Although I must admit that while my brain is an elite athlete, my body is not. I’m turning into a blob. A very confrontational blob. Recently I found my people. It wasn’t something I was expecting. In fact, I’d reached a point in my life where I had accepted that I don’t have any people. People who think outside the square get used to being locked out of those cosy little dinners or social gatherings people inside the square have. Loners don’t have a tendency to hang out together. It would defeat the purpose of being a loner in the first place. But it turns out I do belong somewhere after all. Weight Watchers. I snuck into my first meeting a few weeks ago. We line up in fatty boombah submission, anxiously waiting our turn on the scales. Reactions range from ecstatic to pleased to manic depressive once our numbers are up. We carry our little books with our weights diligently graphed. There’s a strange feeling of secrecy like we’re at Alcoholics Anonymous, except no-one in this group is about to give up drinking. They’re losing weight so they can continue to have a few bevvies. In fact, I’m embarrassed just saying it, but there was something reassuring about being in the presence of other people, predominantly women who can’t control themselves. I too am a woman of extremes. Oh! At last I have found my tribe! I thought I was one of the last excessive repulsives lost in a sea of boring moderation. You see, I’m fat because I don’t know how to moderate. I won’t have one glass of wine, I’ll have the bottle. I won’t have one child, I’ll have five. And I have never believed that you can’t have your cake and eat it too! Fuck that, if you’re not eating that cake, then I’ll eat yours too! So now I am part of the Weight Watchers Cult. I am learning to be moderate. It’s such a novelty. I write down my food in my food diary. This is called tracking. If you see a woman writing in a tiny notebook she’s probably not working for ASIO, she’s probably just a fat chick from WW. There’s no calorie counting; WW have created their own system and allocated foods points. You only get a limited number of points per week with extra points for controlled bingeing. Wow. Finally a system created by fat people for fat people, instead of skinny doctors or health professionals who are perfectly capable of controlling themselves. My house is now full of WW merchandise. A WW calculator for shopping so I can work out the Pro Points (I don’t think Pro is short for prostitute, but I don’t know what it actually means at all). I have WW scales for weighing my food. WW measuring spoons. WW cookbook. WW magazines. The other day I got my son to set the table and I asked him to put out the napkins. He paused and quipped, ‘are these weight watchers too?’. ‘Yes,’ I assured him. ‘You can only eat one per meal’. Any fatty who cooks for a family knows how hard it is to lose weight when you are cooking for a crew. If I have to create my own special ‘suffering’ meal of steamed veggies while they all tuck into a chicken curry it only lasts a week before I break my fat chick sulk with a serious binge. My entire family is on the Weight Watchers program. I’ve noticed that they’ve started to lose weight too. In fact they all seem to be losing more weight than me.

CABARET FOR MULLUM EPs and collaborations later, and finally our favourite royal, Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy, returns! Born Will Oldham in Kentucky USA some 40 years ago, Oldham christened the Bonnie mantle after the dissolution of his previous outfit(s), the hugely influential alt-country outfits Palace Brothers and Palace Music. Since then Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy has amassed a catalogue of some twelve studio albums, all weirdly inventive takes on the roots genre: country-western, bluegrass, Appalachian folk, and which has seen cover versions from the likes of Johnny Cash, Cat Power and Mark Lanegan, while the list of renowned public admirers would fill a press release on its own. His most recent release, Wolfroy Goes to Town, continues in his own unique tradition but in true maverick style moves ever sideways from expectation, this time with the addition of vocalist Angel Olsen – a solo performer in her own right – and guitarist Emmett Kelly, Billy’s most recent consistent collaborator and

Byron Music Lovers is excited to present Live @ The Drill Hall in Mullumbimby, a very intimate night of music and cabaret. Their dream is to provide a regular meeting place for locals once a month. A place to celebrate our wonderful community with great entertainment and food. When the Mullum folk club closed its doors a number of years ago a special musical experience was lost. Live @ The Drill Hall hopes to fill this void with its own unique ambience and flavour with chalk board as a regular part of the evening, giving performers an opportunity to showcase their talent. The main feature for the evening is the wonderful Susanna Carmen, who will take you on a journey of song and story that includes travelogue, tragedy, tears and a few good belly laughs. MC Suzy Leigh, a multiskilled variety comedian and circus performer, will keep the evening moving along. Special guests Leif (harp/accordion) and Sue Hird (circus) will add a nice sprinkling of variety. So take an intimate table and enjoy the show,

MUCH LOVED BLUES AND GOSPEL SINGER SONGWRITER ERIC BIBB RETURNS TO AUSTRALIAN SHORES THIS MONTH WITH A VERY SPECIAL SHOW AT LISMORE’S STAR COURT THEATRE. SEVEN CAUGHT UP WITH ERIC FOR A QUICK CHAT. So Eric, you’ve come to Australia numerous times. What is it about Aussie audiences? I think I’ve been here about eight or nine times. It’s a place I love to come to – having a wonderful connection with the audiences all over. Australian audiences are relaxed, warm and welcoming! What was it about Sweden and the music scene there that attracted you as somewhere to take up residence?

At the time I moved to Sweden in the 70s, the music scene was booming! It was a melting pot of many different styles that worked together. It was a great time to be on the scene there and absorb of all the cultural flavours. Did you choose music or music choose you? I think a bit of both, but ultimately, music chose me. I was certainly exposed to a lot of amazing music and experiences – that being of attending shows with my parents, meeting musicians at my home when my parents put on parties. I always enjoyed hearing my dad sing at home when he was rehearsing. My uncle, John Lewis from the Modern Jazz Quartet, was also an amazing inspiration. With such important musicians in your family, how important do you feel it is to make it on your own? I believe it’s important to make it on your own. To have a style of writing and performing that audiences truly enjoy is what is going to sustain your career. I’ve worked at many different styles of writing and performing, which has taken me years of hard work to find, and that I’m happy with. Certainly musical heritage, or ‘names’ as it were, do help initially with getting ‘a foot in the door’, but ultimately it’s up to oneself. Why, do you think, are so many songs around heartbreak rather than new love? That is a good question! I’m not sure about that. If you’re talking specifically about blues, the theme of matrimonial bliss is quite low on the list of inspiration. What kind of stories do you like to tell in your songs? I like to tell all sort of stories in my songs. I read a lot of books, and often get a lot of ideas from them. It can be anything from historical, spiritual or about people. I also write about

Cards are on the table, the title track from the EP, is a colourful song about finding truth and keeping things simple. Eli says, ‘There are so many distractions prying our attention away from what really matters, like solid relationships and contributing positively to society’. From the catchy first single to the delicate and brooding melodies of other songs, the EP is a heartfelt and mesmerising experience reflecting on beauty, truth and the ache of love calling and loved ones lost. Broken Head Hall in Byron on Sunday. Doors open 7.30 for an 8pm start. $10.

SUMMER PROGRAM

february

Loose Tuesday is a three-piece prog folk band, comprising singer/songwriter guitarists Rhett Brambleby and David Neely with Jamie Irvine on drums. The trio met in Brisbane in the 90s, when Rhett and Dave performed as soloists at many of Brissie’s iconic indie venues. Since moving (or moving back) to the Caldera, these dark and swarthy friends are playing together and loving it. In 2011 the lads played in their various solo, duo and trio capacities at Cabaret 360, Ukitopia, Sphinx Rock Cafe, the Whole Lotta Fracking Going On anti-coal-seam gas CD launch at Byron, among others. These are their first gigs

experiences I have had – on the road travelling, personal – anything. There is an abundance of material to write about! You have become a feature on the world festival stage. How has that broadened your fan base? Festivals are a wonderful way of connecting or re-connecting with fellow musician friends, current audiences and new ones! Word of mouth is a great tool, and being at festivals exposes you to audiences who didn’t necessarily come to see me, but either walked past the tent or was told by a friend to come and see me, and hopefully they like what they hear! It certainly has helped me worldwide. Do some songs or music connect you with a deeper spiritual truth? Sure! Some songs, depending on their content, can definitely go deeper spiritually than others. I have had times when particular songs just take me away when I’m performing them – it’s great! A lot of the time, audiences come up to me and say they felt something happening during a certain song. Everyone gets something out of it in some way. As a musician, keeping the spiritual alive and well is important. People need to hear these songs, and thankfully there are a lot of musicians who are putting these songs in their reportoire and spreading the tradition. What exactly is New World Blues? New World Blues to me is a mixture of blues, folk, gospel, country... and I think that people will take away with them what works for them! That’s the beauty of music. Catch Eric Bibb on Saturday at Star Court Theatre in Lismore at 8pm. Bookings gaynr@gaynorcrawford.com or at the theatre.

artist of the day, it doesn’t go down to the basement for storage.’ ‘Folk music,’ says Hallett, ‘is a very living thing, it hasn’t been relegated to the museum; young bands come along and combine it with the pop music of the day, it’s a very legitimate thing to do because our approach is inclusive rather than orthodox. ’Music of the Newfoundland tradition is very eclectic. So many of the punks here play traditional music; it has a do-it-yourself kind of aesthetic. Because of that it didn’t have a pigeonhole, so always open to different approaches, and that kind of looking down your nose at combining music just doesn’t exist here…’ All over the world people have been forsaking less produced and electronic music in favour of the dynamism of the live performance of folk- and roots-based music. ‘I think one of the reasons that the roots/folk music has had such a revival,’ says Hallett, ‘is that so much of what you hear on the radio is so constructed and not performed by actual real musicians. It’s like there were no real people involved in the playing of the music. When people come to a show and you are running around playing on stage it’s a completely authentic experience. The music industry has slit its own throat. The only thing that is successful any more is live performance; that has to be immediate and there is no secondhand version of that. You can’t download a live performance free of charge. You have to be there.’ The band uses a variety of instruments from accordions to whistles to bagpipes to create their onstage sound. Having just recorded their latest album Safe Upon the Shore, Bob believes that it’s their ever-evolving process that informs just how songs are crafted. ‘Often it’s a case of we’ll sit down making demos and when one thing doesn’t work and you’ll be going that’s not great; it’s often a case of trial and error! There’s a song on the last album called Old Hometown. I did the demo slower and played on the low whistle, which is a bass flute, and it just gave this real melancholy; it was technically right, but it was the wrong setting, and then we did a New Orleans sound on the harmonica, and suddenly the song became happy and took a completely different tone. When you are creating music it’s important to play around. Everything brings a different quality. The banjo makes things rhythmic, accordion adds happiness, tin whistles can be sad or sprightly… When you are making music you have to find the right colours.’ The Great Big Sea are one of the many international acts featured at Byron Bluesfest this Easter.

Mungo’s Crossword first published in The Week.

On 11 March 2010, Great Big Sea celebrated their seventeenth birthday as a band. And like almost every one of their many anniversaries spent together, they celebrated it by playing a concert. For the players it was an important landmark, but for the fans, some of whom had travelled hundreds of miles, it was a chance to spend a night with a band that has come to define the energetic spirit of Newfoundland. Pursuing the Newfoundland sound has been one of the main objective of Hallett and his crew. ‘The Newfoundland sound exists as a melange of Irish, French and English folk brought to Newfoundland about 500 years ago – the only real immigration that we’ve ever had. Over the years it has distilled into a very new form of folk music that is, I suppose, vaguely Irish and vaguely French and English. It’s what makes it unique – it uses the melodic stuff of Irish and the clever word play of the English and the the groove of French. We grew up surrounded by that, it was the soundtrack in our homes like the whistle of a kettle.’ Canadians’ love of folk music, a more authentic, less contrived musical form, has helped define the nation’s identity as separate from America. ‘Unlike America, folk has had a legitimate place in the pop music road,’ says Hallett, ‘even though it rises and falls depending on the

CHESS

by Ian Rogers Play at Byron Services Club, Mon 7pm Alexander Morozevich is widely considered to be the most entertaining of the elite players, both over the board and in person. The 34-year-old Muscovite, who edged out Alexey Shirov in the Vladimir Petrov memorial tournament in Jurmala last week, ranged far and wide in his posttournament comments, with his most startling revelation being that he had been mistaken for a drug dealer on his only visit to Australia six years ago. In 2006 Morozevich had accepted an invitation from a friend to visit Sydney. Morozevich, looking dashing and well dressed as usual, turned up at Sydney airport with hand luggage only and a ticket returning to Europe six days later. And once he told the customs officials that his job was playing chess, his troubles really began. ‘Isn’t chess just a game?’ Morozevich was asked. ‘Yes, but I am quite good at it,’ he explained. He showed the customs officials a bank statement with a large sum of money in it, which simply served to heighten suspicions. For almost two hours cus-

toms tried to get Morozevich to admit what his real intentions were, while Morozevich tried to convince them to go to the waiting area and talk to his friend who could confirm that they had a chess professional in front of them and not a drug dealer. Eventually a senior official accompanied Morozevich outside; his friend was, fortunately, still waiting, and Morozevich was allowed to complete his holiday.

Following the success of SUPA North’s first production Love Off The Shelf in 2011, the company are very excited to return to the Ballina RSL, with a sparkling production of Guys and Dolls from Friday until Saturday 10 March.

Mick is a relative newbie to the world of comedy, but his journey illustrates one of the laws of the business: You can’t just become a comedian, comedy just picks you. For comedian Mick Neven it was clear from the outset that this dry -witted chap was a natural. His first gig was at the Gold Coast Arts Centre in October 2003 when he qualified for the semi-finals of the ‘Legends of Laughter’ competition. Two gigs later he won the princely sum of $300 and decided that standup comedy was easier than working. How wrong could one man be? Beneath his laidback and approachable on-stage persona,

Gone I was waiting for the moment when Jill (Amanda Seyfried) might find herself, trepidatious and vulnerable, creeping down the ill-lit hallway of an empty hotel where all the doors are left ajar. When it came, after a precisely constructed, vice-like hour of build up, I was where I was meant to be – on the edge of my seat. At which point I had to concede (with more than just a grudging degree of relief, too) that not all movies are made to win a Palme d’Or. Some really are meant to be taken at face value. As the heroine of this ‘is she or isn’t she off her rocker?’ thriller, Seyfried, with her long golden locks and doe-eyed

but watchful eyes, could not look more convincing. Jill had been committed to the psych ward a year earlier after the police refused to believe her claim that she was the survivor of a serial killer’s abduction. Returning home after a shift at the diner where she waits on tables, Jill discovers that her sister Molly (Emily Wickersham) has gone missing and is convinced that the killer is responsible. The cops again won’t have a bar of her story, preferring to think that Molly has simply disappeared with a bloke without giving notice. Detective Powers (Daniel Sunjata) seems inexcusably steadfast in his recalcitrance, but he’s got a kind face and rational manner, so you begin to think that maybe Jill isn’t

the full quid after all (there is no mention at headquarters, either, of the lost girls who Jill is convinced have been buried in the forest). It is a suspicion that grows when she sets out on a lone quest to hunt down the still unseen, unheard crim. She lies through her teeth to everybody who might help – not a good look – as paranoia and frustration drive her to extremes. Ultimately, poor Jill has no option but to make a date with Ivan Milat to prove her point. But the sleight of hand works and the vigilante twist at the end is a beauty. ~ John Campbell

As its prestige has grown, the quality of features screened at the Byron Bay International Film Festival has risen with every succeeding year (many thanks to J’aimee Skippon-Volke and her crew). The latest offerings have reinforced that trend. Like all ethnic minorities in the receding corners of globe, the Inuit of Greenland have had their culture steamrolled by the borderless spread of new technologies. The world of those who choose to maintain a traditional lifestyle is shrinking at an unstoppable rate, but for many of the Inuit who have been transplanted into more sedentary, urban surrounds it is a struggle to adapt – the balm of materialism, of iPlugs and hip-hop, even in a native tongue, is not always enough to compensate for the loss of belonging. As a little kid, Inuk (Gaba Petersen) saw his father perish when the frozen sea at his feet opened up below him and, now a teenager brutalised by a no-hoper stepfather, he has been put into foster care with a group of similarly troubled youngsters. But he cannot settle, for he still has ‘the ice in his eyes’. A course of tough love is decided upon by Aviaaja (Rebekka Jørgensen), the wise old crone who runs the home, and Inuk is paired with Ikuma (Ole Jørgen Hammeken) who, with three of his hardened mates, is about to go on a long hunting expedition (workshop primitivists might be dismayed to see that they use high-powered rifles rather than harpoons).

harshness of the environment, working with the dogs (Ikuma shows Inuk how to drive the team with his long whip) and killing his first seal (they slice up its guts and eat them raw), the boy will become the man and, in so doing, re-connect with his roots. Shot as a co-production with the French, it is a simple but powerful story with an intimacy that is enhanced by its faux-doco, fly-on-the-wall feel and the winning performances of non-professionals Petersen, Hammeken and Sara Lyberth as Naja, Inuk’s shy sweetheart. Atmospheric, enriching and hugely uplifting. ~ John Campbell

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

1. Geoffrey Rush is sublime as the north coast’s favourite eccentric virtuoso David Helfgott in Shine (ABC2, Saturday, 8.30pm). For those who have not delighted in it several times, the film traces the tumultuous life of Helfgott from boyhood on, struggling against a severe father (a view disputed by David’s sister Margaret), dealing with mental breakdown and rejoicing in his music. There is only one degree of separation from The Echo, as director Scott Hicks is a friend of sometime Echo contributor John Macgregor. 2. Nisreen Faour stars in Amreeka (SBS1, Sunday, 9.30pm), the Canadian/ American/Kuwaiti co-production that reminds the US of A of its immigrant roots. Palestinian single mum Muna (Faour) wins an American green card in a lottery and escapes the torments of the Middle East for the mixed emotions of her sister’s family in Illinois. While a comedy, it deals with serious issues of discrimination and resolves them in a lighthearted manner. It gets good reviews from critics and audiences alike, rating 87 per cent on the Tomatometer (www.rottentomatoes.com).

VICTORIA COSFORD Spa cuisine, Samantha Gowing tells the small group of us, started back in the eighties in California. She is about to conduct a cooking class of sorts followed by lunch, all of it based on this type of healthy cooking, at the new Cabarita Ocean Retreat just south of Kingscliff. Located at the end of a tranquil cul de sac at Cotton Beach. Pillared entrance, marble tiles reflecting the potted fronds out the front by the pebblefloored ponds, bamboo and polished dark wood and the ocean beyond. Nutritionist Sam is head chef. It is here that she is able to ground – indeed to indulge – her passion for the particular type of therapeutic cooking which defines Spa Cuisine. She has, in fact, gone one step further, coming up with a new genre she calls Surf Spa Cuisine. Sam tells us that she had always felt there was something light, insubstantial, colourless, un-nurturing in the very notion of Spa Cuisine: that when she started to learn to surf she wanted to give this style of cooking more depth and interest and colour. Between Sam and her small audience – five retreat guests and one note-scribbler – a table displays small porcelain bowls of seeds and powders, flakes and pulses. There are fat bulbs of ginger and fresh turmeric and red chillies. Fleshy mushrooms, a bunch of coriander, a line of brown bottles sealing in mysterious fluids. Umeboshi plums, bonito flakes, seaweed, mung beans: a palette, she tells us, of Japanese ingredients upon which our subsequent lunch will be based. We learn about food synergy, at the very heart of Japanese cooking; the importance of

knowing which foods combine best with others; the significance of colour in food (orange foods are good for the digestion; white for the lungs; green for the liver). How mung beans are cooling therefore ideal if you are a hot, inflammatory person; how the value of soy milk, touted as a health food, is actually beginning to be questioned; how too much quinoa, a ‘super-food’, is bad for you. An hour or so later we have regrouped around a long wooden table. The biggest platter is piled high with fresh tuna that has been sliced, steamed and scented with sesame, soy and chilli; other platters offer a sort of coleslaw and the seaweed noodles, which are studded with shredded nori, wakame and arame seaweeds, almonds, pickled ginger. It tastes wonderful, all of it – the more so because it is so fabulously good for us too! And I am suddenly reminded of a friend who had spent a week at another retreat and come back raving about the food. ‘It was so gourmet!’, she gushed. ‘It was just like good restaurant food!’ She had even purchased the retreat’s cookbook and for several months after was zealously whipping up dishes from it. (I did notice, however, on my last visit to her, that the cookbook stand where it had so proudly stood now bore another, its smudged pages sticky with lacquered pork belly recipes, cheesy concoctions, breaded deep-fried golden balls of unctuous badness. Anti-spa cuisine!) Sam’s deliciously nutritious menu is available only to guests of the Cabarita Ocean Retreat. Its website is www.cabaritaoceanretreat.com.au.

News Extra

ADFAS lines up ‘arty’ lecture series The Byron Bay & District branch of ADFAS (the Australian Decorative and Fine Arts Societies) is all set to present a range of ‘arty’ topics in eight lectures over the coming year. Lectures include topics such as Dickens in his bicentenary year, choosing music for ballet, the changing approaches to landscape in the Georgian garden, and why thieves steal masterpieces. All lectures are illustrated, some even include music, and all the presenters

are specialists in their field. The first lecture is entitled ‘Hand Grenades Like Cartier Clips’. How can hand grenades be compared to Cartier clips? Sounds incongruous but find out more on Monday, March 12 at 6.30 pm at the A&I Hall, Bangalow. The story of Lee Miller will take us from fashion model, to artist’s model; from images of fashion to images of war as Vogue’s war correspondent and also accredited combat photographer for the

US army. Her story is told by her son Antony Penrose. The illustrated lecture starts at 6.30pm (doors open at 6) and will be followed by wine, light supper and the opportunity for a chat with the lecturer or other guests. Guests are always welcome to attend for a $25 admission fee. Full program and information at www.adfas.org.au/societies/byronbay_index.html, email adfas.byron@gmail.com, or ring Prue Langler 6685 3495.

Comprehensively covering the Far North Coast

SCU researcher hunting for property hunters A Southern Cross University researcher believes the breakdown of traditional society has led to a new breed of house-hunter, which will have huge implications for those involved in the property market. PhD candidate Melanie Thomas, pictured, who is also a lecturer at the Southern Cross Business School, is studying the consumer decision-making process surrounding property purchase and she is calling for people currently hunting for a new home to participate in her research. ‘As consumers we know that we aren’t buying a property just for the function of providing shelter,’ she said. ‘If somebody asked us to verbalise what we are looking for in

a property we would all struggle. ‘However, when we look at an advert or walk into a property we can instantly write it off as not being what we want despite holding all of our desired functional attributes. ‘This is because of the psychological or symbolic attributes we desire, those that allow us to tell the world – this is where I live and this is who I am.’ Ms Thomas said that in the past major life events such as marriage, children and retirement were the driving forces behind property purchase. ‘While these events still have a significant impact upon housing purchases, changing consumption patterns have made housing choice much more important,’ she suggests.

‘The increasing decline in institutions such as traditional family, stable labour markets, stereotypes, gender roles and religious ties has resulted in individuals establishing their identity through different mediums. ‘Research has proven that consumers purchase brands to create their identities and I suggest that this increasing flexibility in creating an identity has huge implications for property.’ Ms Thomas believes it is important to understand the decision-making processes involved with property purchase. ‘Investigating how we make property decisions is important as it is usually the biggest purchase a person will make in their life,’ she said.

‘We are outlaying a huge m amount of money and making 11a rday u a decision in which we rely on t a S limited or no previous experience to guide us. ‘Therefore if we can better understand how consumers in general make property decisions, future property purchases can be made with more confidence due to being better informed. ‘Additionally, understanding why we make the decisions we do can reduce post-purchase 5 2 1 blues and doubts that increase 1A Wollumbin Street, Byron Bay the more money and time we Renovated stylish two storey home Timber floors, high ceilings and filled with character Fantastic position close to shops, have put into the purchase.’ Price $865,000. town and schools If you are currently in the 3 separate living areas Contact Tony Farrell 0417 212 692 or market for a property and would Large deck and sleep-out/sunroom LJ Hooker Byron Bay 6685 7300. upstairs like to participate in the research please go to https://www.survey- Undercover entertaining area Beautiful tropical gardens monkey.com/s/propertychoice.
