Rudd backs binge campaign

Boarding house ‘a recipe for disaster’, court told Luis Feliu

The redevelopment of a sports centre at Brunswick Heads into a highdensity boarding house would foster anti-social behaviour similar to the inner-city suburb of Redfern in Sydney, a former police officer has warned the Land and Environment Court. At the on-site first day last Thursday of a two-day court hearing into the controversial plan to convert the gym-squash-pool complex into a 27-unit boarding house in Teven Street, rear neighbour and local motel operator Warren Dick said problems from occupants of the boarding house would spill onto surrounding streets.

Former prime minister Kevin Rudd has lent his weight and his 1.1 million online followers to back a Byron Youth Service (BYS) initiative to tackle binge drinking among the young. During a surprise visit to the BYS centre in Byron Bay on Friday to hear about its national project Cringe the Binge and how the federal government could help, Mr Rudd immediately offered to do an on-the-spot video clip to post on YouTube for his legions of fans to promote the campaign that day. Accompanied by Richmond MP Justine Elliot, Mr Rudd said the project aimed to raise consciousness that binge drinking ‘is a problem and can stuff your brain’. After watching a video presentation of the project, he agreed with BYS director Di Mahoney that Byron Bay had a unique problem with youth binge drinking due to the tourist town’s ‘saturation’ almost every night with social drinking which reflected on youth who saw it as a normal way of life.

Mr Rudd said that contrasted starkly with his hometown Brisbane where social drinking was confined mostly to a Friday or Saturday night. Ms Mahoney told him ‘we want to reverse the culture of drinking and make binge drinking uncool’. ‘Two million tourists come to Byron each year and many are drinking every night and there’s a party atmosphere and that has a lot of impact on our kids who think it’s normal, it’s a vicious cycle,’ she said. ‘We therefore need to engage young people to get the message out.’ The Cringe the Binge project will involve a website and a national Weekend of Action each November when everyone will be asked to consider their own drinking habits and donate what they would normally spend that weekend on alcohol to the project instead, via the website. Cringe the Binge will be promoted on TV, radio, print and social media by a stable of youth ‘stars’ including sporting and music identities. Organisers also aim to hold a national conference in Byron Bay on the subject. ‘We now need seed funding to get

Mr Dick said that as a former Sydney police officer, he often worked in the high-density suburb of Redfern which had many boarding houses and blocks of units and saw first hand how the ‘mental outcomes of occupants spilt onto streets’. ‘I’m not judging them but from my experience the occupants (of boarding houses) find it hard to get on in normal society... it will also be hard to maintain and require a lot of effort when you have 12 rooms full of 30 people,’ he said. ‘There’ll be lots of baggage not just here but other streets as well, and dis-

ruption to local amenity from noise and traffic. ‘Car parking around here will be a nightmare when you have 27 people and their friends also wanting to park cars, they will overspill on the street. I envisage long-term social impacts in the area… I’ve operated down in Redfern and seen the problems from this style of housing.’ Byron Shire Council is defending its refusal of the boarding house of 34 units which it deems an overdevelopment of the site and which would set a precedent for an unacceptable level of density and destroy the village’s character. Owners of the property Murray and Julia Stebbing appealed against the councillors’ 8-1 decision last June and recently amended their plan by reducing the number of units to 27.

It takes more than just a good idea to get your film or television project produced, was the advice shared by experienced local screen producers at the launch of Screenworks’ professional development program THRIVE in Bangalow last Wednesday. One of the guest speakers, writer/producer Deb Cox (Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries) shared stories of her career highlights and challenges. ‘When I read through the aims for THRIVE, I was struck by how clearly and intelligently it’s managed to pull together the strategic approach to screen production that it’s taken me nearly all my career – and many years of trial and error to arrive at,’ Deb explained Independent producer and Screenworks chairperson Lois Randall said, ‘The aim of THRIVE is to give local practitioners the information, models and partners they need to produce screen product locally which resonates with local and national audiences alike, and which is also competitive in the global market.’ Ballina MP Don Page launched THRIVE and acknowledged the importance of

investing in an industry that has the capacity to increase job opportunities and economic growth. Mr Page said the Northern Rivers creative industries sector had the highest creative industry employment growth in NSW at 5.1 per cent, which was more than double the growth rate in Sydney for the period 1996 to 2006. In 2006 the crea-

tive industries accounted for $72 million earnings in our region. Screenworks THRIVE includes seminars, workshops, a forum and an ‘incubator’, which will be held throughout the Northern Rivers over the next two years and is open to all committed screen practitioners. The first event on May 31 is

a three-hour evening seminar on concept development with Helen Bowden and Belinda Chayko of Matchbox pictures (The Slap). ‘Matchbox Pictures are industry stars and we are fortunate to have such an accomplished producer and writer team to inform and inspire us,’ said Screenworks general manager Jill Moonie.

Boarding house ‘a recipe for disaster’, court told continued from front page

She said the data flew in the face of the state government’s belief that occupants tended to include students, single women, young working singles and couples seeking affordable rental housing close to services and employment. ‘The limited room space in the proposed buildings is known to add to people’s emotional distress due to the feeling of being hemmed in, poor cross-flow ventilation and limited access to recreational areas,’ she said. Mrs Ball said this was ‘even more relevant’ as the outside area of the boarding house plan had been cut back further in the revised plans. She said Brunswick Heads

had no direct services to help people in the areas of mental health and drug and alcohol issues, no available public transport system and limited police resources to deal with even current levels of incidents.

Change of character Annie Radermacher said the boarding house represented a complete change of character to the peaceful and quiet street and village, especially with increased traffic 24 hours a day seven days a week, unlike the squash centre which closed around 8.30pm most nights. Owner/manager of the sports complex Julia Stebbing said the centre car park overflowed when the centre was

busy in the afternoons, particularly with the swim school. She said a total of 840 visitors a week, or around 140 a day, used the centre for various activities and she was aware of complaints in the past over noise from the squash courts.

Policy test-case The appeal is regarded as a test-case for a contentious state policy on affordable rental housing. The refusal by council supported a campaign by residents who saw it as a major overdevelopment of the site which would have ruined the character of the village and amenity. But staff had recommended approval for the redevelopment

under a policy introduced two years ago by the former Labor government to boost affordable rental housing. Mayor Jan Barham said the policy, which gives developers concessions such as fewer parking spaces and smaller room sizes to encourage affordable rental housing, was designed more for high-density metropolitan areas rather than regional centres. The hearing, before Commisssioner Sue Morris, continued in the Ballina Court House late last week and has been adjourned to a date to be fixed.

Nickel powers up community centre Last Wednesday Nickel Energy completed the installation of a 2.96kW system on the Byron Bay Community Centre roof. The solar power system was donated to the community centre as part of Nickel Energy’s commitment to spread the benefits of solar through the community by partnering with community organisations and rewarding community efforts. The solar system was eligible for the recent 60c feed-in tariff. Thanks to this tariff the 2.96kW system will generate $2,660 per year in revenue for the community centre for the next four and a half years. Nickel Energy managing director director Nick Lake said, ‘We have recommended that the community centre put the revenue in a holding account to accumulate over the fullterm years so that the resulting lump sum can then be used constructively.’ According to Mr Lake the solar system will produce around 4.43MWh of solar power per

are keen to adopt sustainability measures such as installing renewable energy or reducing energy consumption through energy efficiency technology. Their Cool Cubbies program

Health board approves home birth pilot ‘The Northern NSW Local Health District [NNSWLHD] Board has endorsed the undertaking of a twelve month Home Birthing Pilot supported from Mullumbimby Hospital commencing April 23,’ the board’s chair Hazel Bridgett said in a press release last week. ‘All women considered healthy and who are assessed as being likely to have an uncomplicated pregnancy and live within 30–40 minutes of Mullumbimby, the Tweed or

Lismore Base hospitals will be eligible to participate in this home birth pilot. During the pilot period, two women per month will be accepted into the home birth program. â€˜[The board] has consulted extensively and has carefully evaluated the risks of providing home births before making its decision. The board received initial advice from a home birthing steering committee, which included obstetricians and gynaecologists, midwifery

nurse specialists, expert clinicians and consumer representatives who undertook a consultation process on the options for providing a public home birthing service. ‘The Board has satisfied itself that the NNSWLHD midwives have the necessary experience, credentials and skills to undertake home births. The board has also assured itself that a strong policy framework will be put into place, so that pregnant women agree to safety

requirements to support the home birth. ‘The pregnant women need to agree that home births will only proceed if they remain low-risk births and to acknowledge that if their birth risk increases, then the birth cannot proceed as a supported home birth.’ Once the twelve-month pilot is completed the board will decide whether home births will be approved on an ongoing basis within NNSWLHD.

More calls for CCTV in Bay after attack on police Byron Bay police and several community groups have renewed their calls for closed circuit TV cameras in the main street following yet another incident involving drunken youths in the town centre last week. On Thursday night police resorted to capsicum spray

www.echo.net.au

against a group of youths who tried to attack them. Police have since arrested a 24-year-old Suffolk Park man and more arrests are expected. The incident has triggered further calls from Byron Bay Superintendent Stuart Wilkins and Byron United president Paul Waters to have

cameras fitted at Jonson Street hotspots. But Byron mayor Jan Barham is not a fan of CCTV cameras as she says they are rarely monitored and mostly used for collecting evidence after an incident. She has invited police to a public meeting to discuss the

issue of binge drinking and alcohol-related violence in the town. Byron Bay has an unhappy reputation for binge drinking among both local youth and young visitors, as well as an uneviable record for drivingunder-the-influence convictions across all ages.

Even cowgirls get to love food According to the North East Waste Forum (NEWF), more than $2.5 billion worth of edible food is thrown out by NSW householders each year. NEWF and Byron Shire Council hope to reverse that trend with the Love Food Hate Waste Program. ‘Around one-third of the food we buy will end up in the bin,’ said Linda Tohver, NEWF’s education coordinator. ‘The Love Food Hate Waste Program aims to raise awareness about the impact of food waste in NSW and reduce how much “good” food we waste. ‘Our newly developed Love Food Hate Waste Marquee and performers will show householders in Byron Shire and beyond how easy it is to prevent food being wasted and save up to $1,000 a year through planning and buying your food, preparing, cooking and storing food correctly.’ Performer Cowgirl Chef will entertain audiences with

Human rights filmfest returns to the Bay The Human Rights Arts and Film Festival is coming back to Byron Bay in June for a screening at Pighouse Flicks. The festival celebrates arts that promote awareness, inspiration and change in the world and in local communities. Opening the festival is the award-winning documentary The Island President, which captures the dramatic first year in office of President Mohamed Nasheed of the Maldives. The film follows Nasheed on his journey to take on the UN at the Copenhagen Climate Summit in 2009, attempting to stop his nation from sinking under rising sea levels. Another highlight of this year’s program is Fantome Island, which exposes and explores the masked history of leprosy in Australia through the story of Joe Eggmolesse. This tale plunges into the horrific treatment of Australia’s Indigenous leper communities, following Joe as he confronts his

Comics to benefit Mullum playgroup Three Byron Shire comedians have joined forces to create a comedy night to raise money for the Mullumbimby Public School Playgroup for a shed to house equipment and toys. Mandy Nolan, headline comedian and mother of five, is a regular user of the playgroup. ‘Playgroups are a great way for little kids to connect with each other, and burnt-out mums like me to have a cup of tea and a whinge while the kids are in a safe and stimulating environment,’ says Mandy. The Mullum playgroup operates out of the public school main hall and auditorium. Every Tuesday around 20 mums and the odd dad meet with their kids, ranging from crawler to toddler and beyond. The night, titled Comedy And Curry, brings together three comedians who also happen to be parents. Ellen Briggs is the mother of twin boys and Paul McMahon is a single parent of three children.

Comedians Ellen Briggs and Mandy Nolan.

Ellen Briggs was chosen as a Melbourne International Comedy Festival RAW Comedy National Finalist in 2007, and was the winner of Foxtel’s National ‘Be a Comedian’ competition. Paul McMahon was also a State finalist for RAW comedy

and is now a regular on the comedy circuit, with Ellen and Mandy, appearing at comedy rooms in the Gold Coast, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and beyond. Comedy and Curry will feature Ellen Briggs as MC, Paul McMahon as support and

Markets policy back on exhibition Chris Dobney

Byron Shire Council is set to place its revised draft markets policy back on exhibition after the previous draft was met with howls of outrage by community groups and residents. Concerns were expressed that the policy required every market conducted on crown land (including the Byron and New Brighton farmers markets) be put out to tender and that the subsequent successful tenderers might take the markets away from their existing local community focus. Such was the concern expressed – more than 1,000 submissions were received – that the council agreed to a public meeting moderated by Kerry O’Brien on December 5 last year at Byron Community Centre. The packed-out meeting at first wanted the policy scrapped altogether. After considerable debate and ex-

planation by councillors that the state government would only accept a policy that allowed for tenders on all markets conducted on crown land, a resolution was passed that called for Council to undertake a number of actions. The greatest concern of the meeting was the list of assessment criteria for the draft Expression of Interest document, which was developed by council officers and gave revenue to council a 40 per cent weighting and community values a mere ten per cent. Following the public exhibition, Council amended the qualitative assessment criteria, which it claims now better reflect the need to support local providers and community organisations. ‘The changes to the assessment criteria is why we are placing it back on public exhibition for people to have their say,’ Council’s executive manager of corporate management,

Mark Arnold, said. But the meeting also called on Council to address a number of other issues, including: a cost benefit analysis, a local procurement policy and alternative legal and Crown Lands advice. The council has not yet indicated whether any of these additional issues were explored or considered. Mr Arnold said Council wanted to ensure it provided a chance for community members to have their say on the amended criteria for granting market licences. The documents will be on public exhibition until May 18 and will be available at community access points around the shire or on BSC’s website at www.byron.nsw.gov.au/publicexhibition. Submissions should be in writing and addressed to the General Manager, Byron Shire Council, PO Box 219 Mullumbimby 2482 or sent by email to submissions@byron. nsw.gov.au.

Making maths joyful for children Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Every number in the world has an incredibly important characteristic. It is either odd or even. Though oddness and evenness is conventionally taught in elementary mathematics, the significance of this intrinsic nature of numbers is very much overlooked. Maths teacher Vera Stevens has written a book entitled Pebble Maths as a result of working with and addressing the needs of her students. Vera believes that maths is singularly the most difficult and unsuccessful subject taught in school. ‘In teaching maths there is a lot of frustration for teachers and a lot of pain for children’, says Vera. ‘Through this method the frustration and pain is alleviated. Maths becomes a joyful

subject. This book is an introduction to a much better way to teach mathematics. The method is visual, tactile and in tune with the way the mind works.’ The book took Vera only six months to write but she was two and half years devising the method after working with children having difficulties with the subject.

Wide appeal in lineup the ‘hook’ for 2012 writersfest Story & photo Luis Feliu

Jonathan Parsons is excited. It’s his first year at the helm of what he describes as one of the ‘most loved’ writers festival in Australia, which is just a few months away, and he’ll announce the lineup in June. It’s something he’s been working on since taking up the appointment last year as Byron Bay Writers’ Festival’s fifth director after a restructuring which saw the joint role of directing both the festival and the Northern Rivers Writers’ Centre which runs it split into two roles. Jonathan, a seasoned festival producer, feels he’s struck the right balance in the program to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. The 16th annual Byron Bay Writers Festival, on August 3-5, will feature over 100 writers of fiction and non-fiction books, young and old, experienced and novice, sharing marquees with filmmakers, songwriters, scientists and activists. Jonathan’s first nice surprise was seeing the festival’s two-

day primary schools program for this year booked out. ‘It’s a strong program for young children and for young writers, so we’ve made it part of the main program this year which doesn’t often happen,’ he said. Leading the bill in this category is popular children’s book author and comedy writer Andy Griffiths, who came to the festival five years ago, and returns this year to promote the latest book in his Just! series.

Jonathan started his festival career with Pacific Wave in 1996, an event focused on contemporary Pacific arts which was ‘really quite ahead of its time in engaging with the Pacific region’. He also worked with the Adelaide Festival of Arts in 2002 before ending up in Brisbane where he directed the River Festival, a ‘big community environmental festival’ then becoming inaugural director of public programs at the Queensland State Library.

Obernewtyn fans

Community ‘ownership’

Prolific fiction and fantasy writer Isobelle Carmody also returns to the Byron festival after six years to promote her latest work. The author of the acclaimed Obernewtyn Chronicles appeals to many young readers. ‘We’re really proud that local writer Shamus Sillar will be a part of the festival this year with his first published novel, a travel memoir called Sicily, It’s Not Quite Tuscany. ‘He pitched his unpublished manuscript at this festival a few

years ago and it was picked up as a result by one of the world’s biggest publishers,’ he said. Novelist Charlotte Wood is also well known among Australia’s lovers of cooking and eating and will talk about her new offering, Love and Hunger: Thoughts on the Gift of Food. Charlotte attended the Byron festival in 2008 festival and is well-known to patrons. ‘Jane Caro will be here for the first time this year and her latest book Just a Girl which tells the story of the early years of Elizabeth I is simply a great read,’ Jonathan said. Caro, a Sydney-based awardwinning advertising writer, is also known through her Gruen Transfer television series appearances.

Building on success These are just some of the initial program highlights the new director is proud to announce. ‘I want to build on the strong history of the past festivals and the work of previous directors, it’s not a radical shift because clearly it’s working quite well after 16 years,’ he told The Echo. ‘To me, it’s all about what writers are writing about and

what publishers are publishing out there; there’s some really interesting writing in the science-fiction area, which is not surprising as some of the big issues of our time require an understanding of science such as climate change. ‘Technological changes are also impacting on society now, so lots of writers are grappling with that now and in the science fiction genre, that thread is coming through. ‘Other sub-themes coming through are economics and business because it’s on the mind of people as it impacts on their lives, enviromental themes and there’s some fantastic fiction writers and travel memoirs this year.

‘It’s all about balance and we have an eclectic program which will be both familar and surprising.’ Jonathan spends half the week at home in Brisbane and the remainder in Byron Shire working at the Writers’ Centre.

Festival pedigree He has been a cultural programmer/producer for almost 20 years, most of that with festivals, including a four yearstint directing the popular Sydney Mardi Gras Festival from 1997 to 2000. ‘In 1998, it was our 20th anniversary festival and for the first time Kylie Minogue appeared so that one is particularly special for me,’ he said.

‘I’d heard of the Byron writers festival for many years and knew its reputation was quite strong, so I came up here for the first time last year and saw how palpable the strong community ownership of the festival was,’ he said. ‘Clearly there was a real sense of the community here loving their festival and its informal nature. ‘I’ve been at Brisbane and Sydney festivals and it’s a different atmosphere; people buy day tickets instead of attending sessions, so they’re much more open to authors they don’t know – there’s that surprise element which is memorable. ‘Here at Byron we create a conversation between the audience (readers) and writers as well as between authors, that’s the real aim of it.’ Discounted early-bird tickets are now available till the release of the full program on June 15.

Mullum Civic hall ‘needs cooling’ Luis Feliu

Mullumbimby’s historic civic hall may well be too hot in summer and too cold in winter, but a call to air condition the building has met with a luke-warm response from councillors. The hall’s board of management had asked for air conditioning to be installed and Cr Simon Richardson took

on the cause with a notice of motion to do so. But after some debate about the merits of air conditioning versus other temperaturecontrol methods, councillors decided instead to have staff assess the building for other options to ameliorate temperature extremes and to report back next month. Cr Richardson said the lack

of air conditioning for the old hall, which was renovated in 2008, could affect the viability of the cultural asset because hirers were moving events to other venues as it was ‘freezing in winter and boiling in summer’. He said the hall’s original designers had ‘failed to address features of a sub-tropical climate’, like many other old buildings.

An end to another mad adventure Volume 26 #45

April 24, 2012

Do think tanks think? In recent years ‘think tanks’, originally intended as the repository of brain power in researching important issues, have gained a dodgy reputation as many of them are lobbying forces for vested interests which skew the ‘research’ to recognise desired conclusions. Less thinking and more ‘tanking’, the computer gaming term for attacking in a forceful manner. Among the latest, and in some circles regarded as the love child of a federal government clinging to power and an opposition desperate to enforce its credibility in the bush, is the Regional Australia Institute (www.regionalaustralia.org.au). Its board is made up of worthy people and its agenda includes that unpredictable beast, ‘consultation’. What might appeal more to young people, however, is the Left Right Think-Tank (www.leftright.org.au) or the Australian Youth Climate Coalition (http://aycc.org.au). Anyway, the RAI intends to become ‘a new driver of regional engagement on policy issues through a regional forums initiative’. Says its chairman Mal Peters, ‘We want to develop real opportunities for the passion and enthusiasm of people in regional Australia to be captured and to drive change.’ Passion and enthusiasm are not captured in dry, academic studies. They are best found in lively meetings, where the think-tankers really get the message being put across by a particular community. Perhaps the RAI could best prepare itself for the consultation onslaught by hiring a savvy young person to scan the news for activity at grassroots level, such as the campaign for a CSG-free Northern Rivers: www. csgfreenorthernrivers.org. You can help them in this pursuit by lobbying them in their Canberra fastness through their online Contact button or at PO Box 896, Canberra ACT 2601. Whether the good intention of the RAI to ‘develop better strategies for communities in transition to enable them to cope with change’ will survive the avalanche of fear-induced promises at the next federal election is questionable, but in the meantime you can give them something to think about.

o after more than ten tortuous years, we finally have an exit strategy from Afghanistan – a firm (well, more or less) date for bringing our troops (well, most of them) home (well, for the moment at least). Actually we have had one for quite some time: our exit strategy has always been ‘as soon as bloody possible’, which in practice has meant ‘about two nanoseconds after Washington gives us the green light’. And that signal has now been given. It is easy to be cynical about the timing: Barack Obama has set the timetable as he is launching into a difficult election year and of course Julia Gillard faces an even tougher test at the polls in 2013 – when she hopes and believes most of the Australian troops will be welcomed home and the ones left behind will be out of the firing line and therefore largely out of harm’s way. But in fact the revised schedule has been set less by politics than by operational reality. There is a growing conviction among the military that the situation on the ground now is about as good as it is ever going to get, and with antagonism between the Afghans, both military and civilian, and the foreign forces now reaching levels so fierce as to occasionally become murderous, not much can be achieved by hanging in there. It is time to declare victory, and leave – not a withdrawal, but what we now call a transition. But to what? No-one really believes that Afghan forces are ready to take over the defence of the country, or even that they really want to; no one believes that the government in Kabul is other than weak and corrupt and that President Hamid Karzai will not sell out to the Taliban (or

S

anyone else) in order to preserve his personal advantage, if not his life. And no-one any longer pretends that Afghanistan is now, or probably ever will be, on the way to becoming a functioning democracy. If this mad adventure has done nothing else, it must surely have convinced the Americans that their 20th century ambition of imposing regime change on recalcitrant

utterly subservient populace. In other words, yes, you can impose your chosen system on any country, if you’re prepared to drop a couple of nukes first. But since America is no longer the only country that has them, this option has become unacceptably risky. And every attempt since to export the American way by force of arms, in South America, in Asia, and particularly

No-one really believes that Afghan forces are ready to take over the defence of the country, or even that they really want to. by Mungo MacCallum nations through invasion and occupation has become an unrealisable fantasy. Yet it started so well; after World War II the defeated dictatorships fell into line with amazing alacrity. Germany (well, the half occupied by the Americans) and Italy swiftly resumed their pre-war parliamentary systems, with Germany, in particular, becoming something of a role model for the social democrats of the world. Okay, they had always been part of the western tradition; but how about Japan, whose near-feudalism was fully democratised in less than a generation? True; but it had been virtually obliterated as a vital part of the process. When the American occupation began, the country was effectively a political blank: the only remaining link with the past was the emperor, now no more than a conduit to repeat (or rather proclaim) the orders of General Douglas Macarthur to an

catalyst towards democracy. And when the push for democracy emerges, it can certainly use a little help from its friends in the outside world, but not, repeat not, an armed invasion, still less prolonged occupation. Both sides will eventually turn against the interlopers, becoming what are quaintly described as ‘insurgents’ (hey, they’re the ones that live there) until the foreigners leave – at which point, of course, they become freedom-fighters, liberators. In fact, the foreign forces may well do more to upset the progress towards democracy than to help. Arguably, that has been another legacy of Afghanistan. So: apart from this hard lesson, what has been achieved? At least the original war aims have been realised: Osama bin Laden is dead and Al Qaeda has been dispersed, although certainly not dispatched. But that’s about it. In the process Pakistan has become less stable and less predictable, and as a nuclear power far more dangerous than Afghanistan ever was or will be. And of course in Afghanistan itself it will be business as usual, constant tribal warfare with the Taliban the only force with a hope of final victory. A grim prognosis, and one that hasn’t really changed in the last ten years, years which have seen 32 more Australian sacrificed to ill-thought-out American adventurism. Next time we might look past all the pseudo-patriotic bombast, the sanctimonious blather, and realise that there was only ever one sensible way to support our troops in Afghanistan: bring them home.

Even most neo-cons now reluctantly accept that democracy cannot be enforced from outside; that it has to be embraced by the people themselves to give it even half a chance. And when it does evolve, it is usually as a result of uprisings against despotic regimes which have been both long-lasting (and therefore stable) and, importantly, secular. This was the case in South Africa, in the communist states of Europe, in Iran, Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and now Syria. In some instances it has worked and in others it may yet work; in at least one case (Iran, where a secular dictatorship was replaced by an even more brutal religious one) it has obviously not. But it seems to be the only way.

Nothing illegal about street-camping The electronic signs erected at the approaches of Byron over Easter proclaimed that ‘fines apply’ for street-camping, ie sleeping in your car. This is untrue. Council received clear legal advice a couple of years ago (unusually it was even published in the agenda) that there is nothing illegal about streetcamping. It went on to say that all Council could do was continue its practice of erecting signs saying ‘No parking 1am to 5am’. Significantly the advice did not offer an opinion as to whether using parking laws to achieve an unrelated purpose

was itself enforceable. I suspect that anyone given a ticket for parking during those hours could get it overturned as an abuse of process; parking laws are designed to prevent hogging of spaces and I don’t think there’d be much competition for space during the wee hours. On this occasion I have to take the elected councillors to task rather than the staff. The latter made their position clear late last year when they recommended that street-camping be deleted from the 2012 Compliance Priorities Program on the basis that you can’t make people ‘comply’ with something

that isn’t law. The councillors pressed on regardless. I distinctly recall Jan Barham early last year making an argument to the effect that street-campers don’t make a contribution to the local economy. This harkens back to the vagrancy laws, when you could get jailed just for having no money. It was a very unfortunate thing for a Greens representative to say and I can only conjecture that Jan felt some need to nullify the local business community, which has been relentless in putting shit on her. I also recall her insisting that fines had been issued, which

simply cannot be correct. Street-campers may offend our sense of territory but the streets are not private property; they belong to everyone. I suspect that the state government has failed to act against streetcamping because it has legal advice that prohibition would not be upheld by the courts, on the basis of common law rights. If street-campers litter or make excessive noise there are existing laws to deal with that. The Bible says, ‘If thine eye offends thee, pluck the fucking thing out’.

Giving credit

There is one difference though; the stakes are higher, ultimately everyone stands to lose. The American Civil War was the outcome last time and, hey Confederates, new sources of energy were found! Economies prospered. We can do it again, hopefully without civil wars if the Confederates can wake up. Right now the best way to undermine the slave trade is to put solar panels on your roof. It helps bring down the price of solar panels and puts a downward pressure on the peak power prices of electricity.

village atmosphere and yes, we are very glad our shop is now open again. The thing that disturbed me about this project was it seemed to be looking like a gated community. Open space is a premium and the project that was envisaged would have changed the whole atmosphere of the village environment. I would welcome people any time to live in this part of the world and also to appreciate and value what we have that is unique. We are buying the church because of its historic importance to the village of Federal. Pioneers who came here over 100 years ago raised the funds and built the church. It has been a place of worship, family weddings, funerals etc for many of the existing families in Federal and surrounding hinterland. This is worth preserving. Over much of Australia small villages are losing their identity and the Federal community has stepped up to make sure this will not happen here. History is valuable and needs to be recorded. The Federal

While a lot of us old-timers in Byron Shire are used to The Greens taking credit for every thing from wholemeal bread to recycled banana skins, I can’t let Richard Staples’ omission of my old mate Jo Faith’s name from his recollection of the Club Med campaign (Letters, April 17) go without comment. Jo brought to the meetings a wealth of experience from previous activism in Sydney, and was involved on a daily basis in strategising with Richard and the late Annette Coyle. In fact there was a whole collective of people meeting weekly to build the bones of the successful legal challenge undertaken by Byron Businesses For The Future. This which came some considerable time later, and provided a political platform for Tom Wilson and Jan Barham, and, dare I say it, Richard himself.

Camouflage What is it with Justine Elliot MP? This continual stream of expensive one-page adverts, paid for by taxpayers, to persuade us that she is somehow personally responsible of all these wonderful achievements. And it’s not even an election year. No wonder her allowance expenditure stacks up so poorly compared to the meagre amount spent by the likes of Janelle Saffin next door. But then when your actual performance falls so far short in so many ways I guess you have to do something to camouflage the brutal reality.

An open letter to the general manager, Byron Shire Council: We are a resilient bunch of people living out at Wilsons Creek/Huonbrook, hence we’ve been pretty patient about the situation with the landslip of late January on the road west of the primary school, which currently is only open to one lane with a five tonne limit. Firstly a big thankyou to the staff and contract workers who worked under very difficult conditions to stabilise the road to this point, and to Tony Nash who has fielded countless phone calls from us all. We’ve received only one written update so far with little detail, explaining that Council is preparing final design and cost estimates so as to put a submission for state government

disaster funding. The update states that a timeframe cannot be provided. The current five tonne limit is impacting on this community in a number of ways. The Wilsons Creek Road is the only road in and out of the valley. The usual school bus and garbage truck have been unable to cross the one lane. Parents have had to transport their children (sometimes twice if both primary and high school) up to the slip and have their children walked over the slip. Some locals with earth-moving and other businesses have suffered losses in not being able to move their trucks or equipment over the one lane and go to work. Others have had their own private driveways and bridges

damaged in the same flood event, and cannot order gravel trucks or earth-moving equipment to fix them. Council itself seems unable to get their own equipment and trucks through because the rest of the road west of the slip has grass one to two metres high encroaching onto the verges, with numerous potholes, further sections about to collapse, and drains full of gravel so that in another flood event the water will be unable to get away and will cause further havoc. People are unable to bring in removal trucks. And I believe the fire trucks are also prevented from crossing. I’m sure there are many more impacts not listed. It has been said the road at the slip is in danger of total collapse which could potentially mean

the stranding of some 300–400 people. This would mean that all our livelihoods would then be threatened, and this would not be a pretty situation! Given the seriousness of the situation we request that the general manager take the opportunity through the pages of The Echo to explain in detail the steps that are being taken by Council and the state government to repair the road, and to outline the expected timeframe. In addition there could be regular updates provided on Council’s website to keep the residents informed of each step of the process, as well as providing leaflets at the site. Keeping the community more informed would be appreciated.

Matthew rightly questions the viability of clean coal and gas using CCS but misleads when he suggests that second generation nuclear is ‘off limits in any OECD country’ (nearly all the second generation plants in OECD countries are still operating successfully). He also misleads when he suggests that third generation nuclear plants have ‘so far proved impossible to get built’. Such plants are currently being constructed in China and the US. I am a supporter of his domestic solar PV with battery banks (still very expensive today) – I have one myself – and I believe they can make a valuable contribution to household electricity supply. But they cannot replace coal plants which service heavy industry and commercial properties today. Only nuclear plants can do that cleanly.

Shirley Street heading into town and the result is disastrous. It’s a move that requires no added cost for infrastructure, the services are better at the new complex, and it would ease traffic on Thursdays. Where’s the downside? I don’t believe there is one!

Palestinians enoy a much better standard of living, health and education than in most, if not all, the Arab world. I once suggested to Gareth that he go and see for himself and perhaps form more balanced opinions. I am sure that whatever his views he will be welcomed in traditional Middle East fashion. This might deter him from actions such as demonstrating at the concert of Mosh Ben Ari, most likely an apolitical man trying to ply his trade. I see little intelligence on Gareth’s accusations, unless he has concrete and irrefutable proof of them. And no, I did not go to the concert.

saw Federal and wanted to be a part of it. It’s an awesome community. I’ve been here 30 years and I love it. And yes, we ‘lost’ our store for a while (which meant driving to Bangalow to collect the mail). And yes, Pogels Wood is on the market. And yes, we’re raising money to buy the church. That’s our church by the way (the church that was built by residents on land donated to the church). Anyway, I wasn’t at the hall that night, but I was against your development (for all the reasons stated in your letter). That’s not to say you, Chai, wouldn’t have fitted in – it was simply the scale of the Cornucopia Muse development that wouldn’t have fit within our dear little village. However, I’m sorry that you’re still hurting. Diana Sweeney

Q

Wright or wrong? Matthew Wright (Echo, April 17) paints a very seductive picture of an all-renewable future for Australia’s electricity generation. His Zero Carbon Australia Stationary Energy Plan released in 2010 would seem very attractive to an inexperienced reader with its promise of a cost-effective solar, wind and biomass solution by 2020. A close analysis of that report showed the likely cost of such a solution was five times higher than the report’s estimate and the wholesale cost of electricity would be nearly ten times the current cost.

Move the market We all love the farmers markets and being able to buy local fresh produce, but what about the huge traffic jam it causes on Shirley Street every Thursday morning? Sure, it’s convenient to walk or ride a bike to the Butler Street park but many people choose to drive their cars, even from town. I think there’s a better option. Let’s move it to the new sports complex. It has all the parking facilities and it’s an easy bike ride from town. The new sports complex is hardly, if at all being used, so let’s bring it some life and activity and at the same time relieve the traffic on Shirley Street for at least one day a week. To have it move just out of town would eliminate the Thursday morning traffic jam which is created at the roundabout at Butler Street (outside the police station) when cars try to leave the markets. Cars leaving turn right at this roundabout to go into town which stops traffic flow on

Whence your feathers? Feathers are awesome, raiment of angels which sometimes are shed and float to the ground. A joy it is to come across one of these gifts. Some feathers are miracles to behold, and tell a story of the wonderful creature that wore it high in the sky. These feathered beings are oh so very beautiful in the sky, and in the trees. I see many artifacts and women wearing feathers and I say to them, did you find those feathers on the ground, did the ‘angel’ give them to you, do you know the angel is still okay, or did it die from the sky to be part of the fashion industry, and hang on your wall or in your ears? Let’s do our best to think about what ‘industry’ is doing, and change our ways of trusting what is there in front of us, and think where it came from, and how. Let’s help each other ‘kindly’, as we do our best to be at one with the world we are part of.

Rather than human rights in Palestine, Les Einhorn would have us debate subjects ‘closer to our neck of the woods’. Well, human rights in Palestine concern us all, despite the concerted attempts by some people, from the Murdoch press to elements in the Greens, to skew debate on this deeply vexatious issue. For, despite his considerable credentials as an environmental crusader, ex-leader of the Greens Bob Brown faltered when it came to supporting Palestinian human rights by his failure to endorse the call of the Boycott, Disinvestments & Sanctions Movement Suzie Sheoak against apartheid Israel – a call Byron Bay continued on page 17

Meet two generations of Byron Shire waste removalists. They are the men who start work before dawn. The unsung heroes that keep our neighbourhoods clean and tidy. Hear their stories and what you can do to make their jobs a little bit easier. Recycling truck driver: Ray Profke. Age: 63. Time spent in industry: 46 years. Born: Boonah, Queensland. Lives: Ballina. Grandchildren: 3 Ray started driving trucks when he was 17 years old in his hometown of Boonah. His first job was emptying sanitary cans from the outhouses (before flush toilets). It was a very labour intensive job and the spiders and snakes that greeted him made it interesting. He then worked for 15 years driving gravel trucks before moving into rubbish and recycling. What do you love about your job? I love helping people.

Taking care of waste and recycling: Ray Profke and Ricky Small.

What annoys you most about your job? People who place their bins the wrong way around or too far from the curb. Rubbish hanging out of the bin as it gets stuck on the arms of the lifter and makes a mess on the road. Impatient drivers who can’t seem to wait for me to empty what is probably their rubbish bin What’s the weirdest thing that’s ever happened while driving? I was about to pick

up a rubbish bin when a young boy randomly jumped out of it. It scared the life out of me and ultimately he could have been killed. Garbage truck driver: Ricky Small. Age: 27. Time spent in industry: one year. Born: Liverpool, NSW. Lives: Ocean Shores. Children: one. Ricky was born in Liverpool in Sydney but moved to Byron shortly after that. He grew

up in Bangalow and went to Bangalow Primary then Byron High. Studying fitness initially, he fell into truck driving through word of mouth. What do you love about your job? The hours and the autonomy. What annoys you most about your job? The traffic in and out of Byron, especially in holiday seasons. People who park their cars in front of garbage bins. What’s the weirdest thing that’s ever happened while driving? I was driving a rubbish truck up in Ocean Shores after Australia Day and some joker had stacked four full rubbish bins on top of one another. Apart from it being structurally impressive, they were a complete hassle to get down.

Get Italian millionaires to pay We need an alternative to the growing but inefficient use of cars on highways expensively rebuilt in the Northern Rivers area to accommodate huge trucks by night and increasingly by day. New timetables forcing locals to join the existing train service very late at night followed by its removal in 2004 in opposition to the wishes of councils and the big majority of local people was a major step backwards. Increasing calls by locals to reintroduce the Casino-Murwillumbah rail service and extending it north to join the Queensland rail line presently under construction southward

to the common border cannot be ignored. In addition the existing rail service from Melbourne to Brisbane needs a rapid injection of funds to upgrade the line for the very fast train (or VFT) achieving speeds of up to 350kph and latest federal government estimates put the cost between $61 billion and $108 billion to build. Former deputy prime minister Tim Fischer estimates millionaires in Italy and other parts of the world made nervous by the economic crisis in Europe and looking for safe boltholes could be made to contribute $1 million each in high speed rail infrastructure

to isolate the Israeli state. We in South Africa, who both suffered apartheid and defeated it, have the moral right and responsibility to name and shame institutionalised separation, exclusion and domination by one ethnic group over others. [With] my own eyes I have seen how the Palestinians are oppressed, dispossessed and exiled.’ Sadly, Marrickville Council’s move to endorse BDS was stymied by some Greens and orchestrated attacks in the Murdoch press. Which brings me back to the Mosh Ben Ari concert in Mullumbimby: we were not there to ‘attack any Israeli (or Jewish) person’. We were there to bear silent witness to the ongoing tragedy of Palestine, a tragedy that concern us all, including Israelis and Palestinians and people everywhere, including in our neck of the woods, who value freedom.

supported by Palestinian and Israeli human rights groups and human rights activists worldwide. Ditto Byron mayor Jan Barham, fellow Green MLCs Jeremy Buckingham and Cate Faehrmann and ex-MLC Ian Cohen. It’s sad to note that, when it comes to human rights in Palestine, even the Greens – with some important exceptions like Lee Rhiannon – side with those willing to give Israel a free pass. For me, support for human rights in Palestine and the BDS movement is a litmus test for any human rights activist in 2012. Evidently, South African bishop and human rights campaigner Desmond Tutu felt the same. In a letter to Marrickville Council’s mayor, supporting the Council’s efforts to promote BDS in Marrickville, he said: ‘I want to pay my respects to you and your fellow councillors in Marrickville for taking a stand www.echo.net.au

bonds in return for using Australia as a safe haven and could considerably alleviate the federal government’s estimates. As to reinstating our Casino-Murwillumbah branch line, in 2006 Barry O’Farrell as shadow minister for transport, committed to returning trains within three weeks of attaining office. In 2007 coalition policy committed ‘$100 million over four years’ and to ‘immediately start the planning process for an extension of the line from Murwillumbah to meet the Brisbane-Gold Coast line.’ Other broken promises by the coalition concerning the line were made in March and

November 2011 and Minister Don Page on March 21, 2012, stated there will new terms of reference. The meeting that same evening in Lismore attended by about 80 people called for the benefits of the completed line, both financially and socially to be included. Another benefit, not alluded to, provides for limitation of dangerous amounts of greenhouse gases now belching into our environment which will soon reach a crucial level worldwide, and scientists now state, beyond which we will be unable to pull them back!

Organiser Ashley Burke-Smith comments; ‘As soon as we started building this site, we quickly realised that we have the opportunity to develop a local careers hub bringing together employers, training organisations and people at the start of their career as well as those looking for a new start.’ With speciďŹ c areas for school careers advisers and students, visitors, exhibitors and people considering apprenticeships or traineeships, the site allows people to check up on the latest information about the Northern Rivers Careers Expo. A variety of documents and tools are now available at the touch of a button; including who’s exhibiting, opening times, location and details about the various ‘hands-on’ exhibits.

education and training industries.

Ashley Burke-Smith continues; ‘The Careers Expo is a great event and makes a huge contribution to solving local employment issues. What we are now able to do is to back this up by providing careers information all year round. We’re also really excited about the opportunity to grow this resource as we begin to understand how this site can be more useful to the industry and the wider community.’ The Northern Rivers Careers Expo itself is also evolving to match the needs of local school leavers and mature students. As well as its traditional focus on apprenticeships and traineeships, this year, for the ďŹ rst time it will feature exhibits from 6 universities: Bond, Charles

Will the people of Mullumbimby own their own supermarket?

UNDER CONTRACT Mullumbimby, we have good news... and a challenge! Greg here, from the Mullumbimby Community Supermarket (Dennett’s IGA) initiative. I have a quick update for you and an unusual request…. The good news is that Tuesday last week we exchanged contracts and paid the deposit to buy the supermarket! That began the conditional 21-day period to finalise the $2 million capital to buy the business for our community. However I may need your help…. The most difficult part of this project has been bringing 5 to 7 investors together for the purpose of stake holding the business so we (the community) can buy it from them! We have a number of good-hearted local investors who are willing to invest between $300,000 and $500,000 each – but they all have different requirements going forward.

So what’s the challenge? At this point there is a possibility that I might not be able to bring them all into one single agreement, and may lose one along the way. This could mean we’d have to cancel the contract, and Dennett’s IGA will be sold to another party. We would lose the opportunity to keep all of the profits in our local community and to collectively own one of the assets central to our daily lives – our supermarket. For this reason we need to round up another $500,000 investor, or just 1 or 2 investors who will provide the entire $2 million. My request: Do you know someone who has the capacity to make an investment in this range? If so, please let me know – or ask them to contact me. It’s an excellent proposition that provides a solid return, with a guaranteed exit strategy within 12 to 24 months. (The only requirement is that investors must be willing to sell their shares to the new Community Entity – being formed to accommodate all of us smaller investors from our Mullumbimby community).

From the date of this Echo, we have 13 days to complete this purchase – can you assist? Contact Greg 0411 125 939

My initial experience of the music planted a sacred seed in my heart that hasn’t stopped growing since.

What was that like – it’s quite a profound calling, and definitely a little off the As a performing artist what do you get from teaching? beaten track for a boy from Canada... did your parents think you’d lost the plot?

I can’t generalise about rock music completely, but Qawwali lyrically speaks about divine union, whereas rock music seems to be more about sensual pleasure and human drama. Qawwali is not selfish – it is fuelled by a different sort of passion, the longing to unite with the Absolute. What should we expect for your show in the Byron Shire? Definitely the Byron Shire has never seen anything like this. You can expect an energetic, animated and passionate atmosphere in a spirit of devotion that is sure to move people and inspire some dancing!

THE HUG DRUG There’s nothing better than a nice warm hug. The transfer of love and affection through the simple act of embrace is something particular to we primates who have been wrapping our arms around each other since we first crawled out of the primordial slime. Imagine being the first lone worm to step out! ‘Hey, someone here needs a hug!’ Dogs don’t hug, they hump. Cats don’t hug. Birds don’t hug. Indian hug guru Amma has been in Australia doling out the Darshan. Ever since she achieved enlightenment at the brink of starvation when a dog bought her a packet of biscuits and a cow stood over her and let her drink from its teat (this is from her pamphlet) she has travelled the world giving unconditional love via the cuddle. I once lined up for a hug with Amma, but I have to admit I got tired of waiting, so I left. If she’d passed around a few biscuits and I’d got a bit of titty, then I might have stayed. (Where’s that cow when you need her?) The hug is a curious phenomenon. Years ago, we in the Byron Shire were famed for the ‘Byron Hug’. It was our trademark. I haven’t seen a proper Byron Hug for years. They need to be heritagelisted. A proper Byron Hug requires both parties to have no gainful employment or purpose as engagement in the embrace necessitates a complete surrender so the huggers are free to continue for days at a time. In the old days you’d see two pony-tailed men in Thai fisherman’s pants grab each other in a big hairy man cuddle; two days later they’d still be there resonating in the glow of each other’s gloriously open heart chakras. These hugs require complete physical submission by the huggee. One’s body must writhe in unison, while the hands massage the back and buttocks of the other participant. This hug also required a noise, a low guttural moan. Occasionally while hugging, the two would pull away and look each other in the eyes for a minute or so and then return to the hug. This is most effective when performed at the counter of a health food store while the people behind you are queueing for service. The hug takes many forms. In fact I believe you can tell a lot about a person by their embrace. There’s the hard hug. That’s a quick rigid connection where a hug is given by two people who don’t actually like each other but pretend to. There’s the back patter. Usually a woman with an over-identified mothering complex who likes

to burp people she hugs. Be careful she doesn’t swaddle you first. Yes, it’s patronising, but it’s this control freak’s way of assuring you that you are safe. If you want to make her happy, then belch loudly or pass wind. There’s the teenage girl hug. To perform this properly you need to precede contact with some high-pitched screams and while hugging both participants need to jump up and down. This takes quite a bit of muscle control to execute and unless they’ve just won a car on the wheel of fortune, you’d be unlikely to see anyone over the age of 20 performing it. There’s the Nanna hug. This is the hug where the hugger takes hold of the huggee and refuses to let go. The huggee is usually pretty non-commital but the hugger goes in hard. There’s the ‘oh my god I shouldn’t have hugged this person’. This is when you wrongly interpret a social queue and go in for a cuddle with someone who has huge personal space issues. One of my favourites is the lifting cuddle. Being a 6 foot woman of some 90 kilos, I don’t get this one very much. This is the hug of someone bigger and more powerful. It tends to be a manto-woman hug, where the man lifts the hopefully smaller and much lighter woman into the air. For some reason men don’t like this so much when you do it to them. They think it’s emasculating. Oh boo hoo. Then there’s the sleazy I’m-going-to-use-thishug-to-rub my-erection-on-your-leg hug. We’ve all had those. If it’s a suspect uncle, I suggest you stop visiting. Hugs are in such demand that relationship coaches have created ‘Cuddle Parties’. Some call them Cuddle Puddles. So what happens in a cuddle puddle, or a puppy pile? Grown adults gather together at a pre-advertised location to engage in a non-sexual group intimacy. That’s just bloody creepy. If you’ve got arms you can give someone a hug without having to advertise. So I suggest that instead of lining up to receive a hug from gurus, we owners of the appropriate hugging apparatus start opening up and practising random acts of hugginess. While you’re at it, find someone who really needs a good cuddle. Get rid of that poor people prejudice, and hug a homeless person. And if you want to do something really nice, let them steal your wallet.

CHESS

by Ian Rogers Play at Byron Services Club, Mon 7pm Top seed Levente Vajda led all the way to secure victory in the sixth Sydney International Open (SIO), fought out at the Parramatta Town Hall last week. In the final round the 31-yearold Romanian Grandmaster faced a potentially tricky pairing against Australian Olympian Stephen Solomon but he shut down all Solomon’s attacking efforts and cruised to outright victory and the $4,000 first prize. Vajda apart, the SIO was far from a walk in the park for the many visiting Grandmasters and International Masters. Australians could regularly be found on the top boards of the tournament, with former Olympian Gary Lane beating two of the Indian stars of the previous week’s Doeberl Cup in Canberra and 15-year-old Bobby Cheng also confirming his position as one of Australia’s leading players. The small Chinese delegation at the SIO went home contented, with IM Zeng Chongsheng earning a tie for second and his

first Grandmaster ‘norm’, but it was 12-year-old Bai Jinshi who impressed most. In Parramatta Bai drew with the third seed, GM Gergely Szabo, but his most notable win came in the game below, against Brisbane’s rising star, 15-year-old Yi Liu – a spectacular tussle. Sydney International Open 2012 White: Bai Jinshi Black: Yi Liu Opening: Queen’s Gambit Semi-Slav 1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.Nc3 e6 5.Bg5 Entering one of the most complicated and wellanalysed opening lines. 5.e3 is more modest. 5...dxc4 6.e4 b5 7.e5 h6 8.Bh4 g5 9.Nxg5! hxg5 10.Bxg5 Nbd7 11.exf6 Bb7 12.g3 c5 13.d5 Qb6 14.Bg2 0-0-0 15.0-0 b4 16.Na4 16.Rb1!? was the remarkable move which gave Liu’s coach, Stephen Solomon, the most trouble when he first ventured this line decades ago. 16...Qb5 17.a3 exd5 18.axb4 cxb4 19.Be3 19.Bf4 is currently considered most accurate, though the text move sets a nasty trap. 19...

BIC MUSIC After a five-year break to raise her son, Bic Runga returns with a new album Belle and an east-coast Australian tour. In New Zealand where she was born, Bic Runga is one of just a handful of artists who have truly earned the term iconic. With her first two albums each selling 11 times platinum in her home country, top ten hits in Australia, Japan and Ireland and critical success in the UK, Bic Runga is one of the highest selling artists in New Zealand music history. Belle was produced by Kody Nielson and mixed by Justin Gerrish (Vampire Weekend), Tom Rothrock (Beck, James Blunt, Foo Fighters) and Nielson. Bic and her band, including Mint Chicks Kody Nielson and Michael Logie, will play shows in the UK and Ireland prior to her Oz tour. The five years since her last album of new material have passed quickly, at least for Bic. You could say life intervened – specifically the birth in 2007 of her son. ‘Motherhood is very nice. But there comes a point where it would be really easy to lose your identity, and if you didn’t return to your art you’d just become a pain to everyone around you.’

This week highlights Tauran themes of value, recognition of resources and above all the sustainability of our planetary home…

E ARIES: Doing the rounds on Facebook: I would like to apologise to anyone I haven’t offended. Please be patient, I’m working on it… has this been you in recent weeks? Whatever, now’s the time to send your ego on holidays and make friendly amends wherever you need to. F T AURUS: It’s time to address this year’s wish list and consider how best to use your assets and resources. Revisit your big-picture aspirations and dearest personal dreams, because this is a powerfully positive week for saying sayonara to what’s passed and opening your arms to the next chapter… G G EMINI: This week’s congenial Venus attracts people who’ll enthuse and amuse you, but be advised that rushing or hurrying others will only make them stubborn and resistant. So do something useful instead, like figuring out how to simplify what’s become too complicated in your life. H CANCER: This week’s cruisier pace offers some recovery from recent rigours – though if late week Cancer moon steers you towards emotional uproar then take a detour, because this weighty week needs the balance of some fun on the side, middle, edges or wherever you can find it… I L EO: Not a good time for short cuts – cut excess

The Lucky One Not to put too fine a point on it, your classic teen pot-boiler trawls the deepest shallows. Australian director Scott Hicks, who cut his teeth on schmaltz with Shine, has seen no reason to push the boundaries of his target audience’s expectations in this school-hols rainy day diversion. Logan (Zac Efron) finds the photograph of an attractive young blonde woman on the battlefield

in Iraq. He doesn’t know it at the time, but she is the sister of a slain marine, and Logan gets it into his head to seek out the mystery girl. He does so by identifying the pic’s background lighthouse as one that he’s found on the Net (how easy was that?), then, after being discharged, walking with his German shepherd, Zeus, from hometown Colorado to that distant location. Fresh as a daisy after his epic trek, Logan discovers Beth (Taylor Schilling), a divorced mom living in the country with her little boy Ben (Riley Thomas Stewart) and granny (Blythe Danner) at a dog refuge/ training centre. As easily mistaken for his spinster aunt in cut-down jeans, Beth is nonplussed when the granny hires Logan, whereupon Cupid gets to work on the pair. Being in one of those bayou states, it’s mandatory that the local deputy is a Bud-guzzling red-neck, and in this case it’s Keith (Jay R Feguson), Ben’s embittered dad. You can join the dots, can’t you? Efron, at his most expansive, is a onedimensional but inoffensive actor with a nice face, Schilling rises to the occasion watching her son play the violin in church (a charming scene), the kid is not as obnoxious as they usually are in this type of fare and, thankfully, Zeus is spared the nasty fate that I’d penciled him in for. And yes, Logan and Beth’s moments together – particularly during the prolonged shower scene in which they do it with their clothes on – are drenched in an excess of golden light. It’s not nearly as bad as you’d expect, but not nearly so good, either. ~ John Campbell

Euro tourists sit in the dirt, lauding those traditions and ‘experiencing’ their hosts’ picturesque poverty (perhaps the unimpeachable G. Greer was one of those ersatz friends, before returning to Oz to publicly bag J. Gillard for

the clothes she wore). A terrific and surprisingly poignant movie, worth seeing alone for its uncommon authenticity (nothing is tarted up) and passionate, pulsating music. ~ John Campbell

Aristophanes wrote Lysistrata, a play in which the eponymous heroine convinced her Greek sisters to withhold all sexual favours from their menfolk until the blokes ceased their bloody Peloponnesian War. With exceptional performances and painterly cinematography (by Glynn Speeckaert), Romanian born director Radu Mihaileanu’s spirited adaptation of the story avoids preachiness without at any time watering down its strident polemic. There is a neglected village in the Maghreb, built into the side of a mountain that not so much shelters it as keeps it hidden from the rest of world. Electricity cables have made it this far, but the current has not been connected and the villagers eat and read by the light of small torches attached to headscarves – the symbolism of them as miners in a dark, underground world is inescapable. For time out of mind, the women have been fetching water from a distant spring along an arduous, rocky track. When yet another of them falls and miscarries, it is the catalyst for the fiery young Leila and her unlikely ally, the haggard old matriarch Rifle, to make a stand for their sex. They call for a ‘love strike’ in an effort to get their indolent husbands to do something about the living conditions that they must endure – through the women’s overdue rejection of previously unquestioned verities, Western audiences are taken back to the coalface of feminism’s struggle. There is a brilliant scene in which the village women, dressed in their best ethnic rags, dance and sing what is a scathing attack on the traditions by which they have been downtrodden, while a group of clapping bourgeois

THURSDAY 26 ABC 1

1. When religion gets dangerous: Paul Scofield and Leo McKern, better known as Rumpole of the Bailey, do a superb job of work in A Man for All Seasons (ABC2, Saturday, 10.10pm), a 1966 film based on Robert Bolt’s play of the same name. The man in question is Thomas More, who stood up to King Henry VIII (1491–1547) when the king rejected the Roman Catholic Church in order to obtain a divorce and remarriage. The film won six Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Actor. It didn’t do to oppose Henry, and More, once the king’s favourite, lost his head for his principled stand. You can read more about More at www. luminarium.org/renlit/morebio.htm. 2. Poor New York cops it again in Cloverfield (Eleven, Sunday, 8.30pm), in which a large monster attacks the city, as they tend to do. It is told in the jerky hand-held video style from the poirnt of view of six mates caught up in the action. Like Thomas More, the Statue of Liberty loses her head. It may be all H P Lovecraft’s fault: he wrote back in the 20s that NYC was built over a subterranean chamber where demons worshipped ancient monsters. Since then King Kong attacked the 1930s, followed by Q The Winged Serpent in the 80s, the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man (Ghostbusters), and the ‘cannibalistic underground dwellers’ in CHUD.

Organic ginger at the Gray's VICTORIA COSFORD

Those habituÊs of our local farmers markets would be familiar with the sight of Bob Gray. Perhaps in defiance of his surname, his vibrantly coloured shirts shine out as brightly as his smile as you approach the organic ginger stall he and wife Liz have been running ever since the markets started up, some ten years ago. Bob's wearing a trademark shirt the day I drive out to their Goonengerry property – you can't miss him down amongst his ginger plants. But first there is Liz to greet me as I pull up in front of a little church. A church? All will be revealed anon. Liz leads me off to the fields and I am grateful as we tramp damp terrain for my sensible boots. Spectacular land rears up all around us: lush green rainforest and rich reddy-brown soil, the sheer abundance of growth and fertility. Half of the Gray's seventy acres is for wildlife. In 1978 the couple moved up from Melbourne to a property which, apart from camphors, was completely bereft of trees. 'There was nothing here at all', Bob tells me. 'Thirty years ago you would have looked at this and thought what a wasteland. The transformation has been magical – it's the power of life to reclaim!' With the assistance of Rainforest Rescue they planted rainforest trees, home now to koala families. They put a windmill in, and now canopies of trees over the creeks shade the lantana out and keep the creeks clean. Their 30-year plan, Bob explains, was to retain about thirty acres of 'really top-notch agricultural land, land that was state-of-the-art.' As he talks his pitchfork is diving into the soil and lifting out huge ginger plants, soil which writhes with fat worms . 'The greatest resource is this soil', he says. 'The main work we do is soil-building.' And to do that Bob and Liz empty vast quantities of both mulch and compost into it. ' You need ten times the amount of mulch

That ginger, however. Fat firm bulbs pinktinged with skin so fine it does not require peeling: Bob explains that it is only recently that such young fresh ginger has become available, and that most people are used to buying mature ginger. It all grows, he tells me, from a small chunk of ginger called the 'mother'. It takes them about two hours to pull out and clean all the ginger they will need for the markets, and apart from help during harvesting and planting, they pretty well manage on their own. 'We're doing the maximum we can do with help without going to the next level', says Bob. Which they do not wish to do, and which is the reason they limit themselves to just the Byron Bay and Bangalow Farmers Markets. 'If you're going to run something like this you might has well enjoy it', says Bob. Over mugs of tea I ask about the church. When the couple relocated from Melbourne ('for Bob it had always been a dream to have a country property and for me my grandparents were from rural Victoria', says Liz) they noticed the lovely old wooden church for sale at Mullumbimby. And so they bought it; it is now Bob's shed!

for the area you are mulching', Bob tells me. ' Thirty six tonnes of compost were emptied here. It all gets blanket-mulched to keep weeds out and moisture in. It's so clean!' Liz says that they have tried to strike a balance between open space and agriculture but it all takes a lot of mulch. Ginger is not natural to the area and Bob tells me that they pioneered their own techniques for growing it here.

The 7s, 8s and 9s played great football with players really getting into the spirit of the game. Unfortunately the under 10s had to forfeit, but 11s defeated Tweed Coast Raiders 40-4 in a great game which saw the whole team play well. Shaun Booth was man of the match. The under 12s played an awesome game against Murwil-

lumbah winning 28-10. Points went to Cameron Gadsby, Finn Brooke and Josh Carruth. A well played game by the 13s against Murwillumbah saw a good game by all the boys especially Sean Fadden, Luke Caldwell and Tomm Gibson. Final score was 38-4 to Murwillumbah. An outstanding effort from the Mullum under 15 team against a determined Seagulls side saw the boys come away with a 28-20 win.

Pies improve big time The Byron Coopers Magpies travelled to Tweed Tiger land to contest the season’s second round. The Magpies have a big influx of new players and new energy. A new coach Mick Young has been appointed and has had solid support with at least 20 players turning up to training – however rain has restricted training at Bangalow. In slippery conditions Tweed got away to a quick start, fullback Shane Morritt repelled numerous attacks by the Tigers, he was having a great tussle with the big forward David Round. Tweed made the most of their opportunities closing out the quarter with five goals. In the second quarter the ball was getting heavy as both sides battled hard. The magpies smaller brigade started to get into the game with newcomer Nathan Moon giving plenty of drive, Zac Petty moved to

a wing and was in everything and captain coach Mick Young was running into space and offering a target out of defence. The Magpies were starting to link up and look for each other. Byron went into the half time break having restricted Tweed to one goal. Byron came out after half time full of running, midfielder Joe Ryan was tackling well with strong play at ground level, his solo bursts resulted in goals and lifted the team, Sam Mitchell assisted by Rohan Hussey were repelling well across halfback and Mick Ensor was using his pace on a wing. The Magpies slammed on four goals for the term. The final term developed into a slog as the heavy conditions took its toll on both sides, backs Jared Balchin and Joel Johnson battled hard as the Magpies kept the Tigers to one goal in

There is an old saying in rugby league: ‘attack for show, defend for dough’. The Byron Bay Red Devils got the money at Kingsford Smith Park on Sunday by sticking resolutely to that principle in their 28-10 defeat of the Ballina Seagulls. Both sides threw everything at each other in an uncompromising encounter and, though never headed, the Devils’ victory looked more comfortable at the final hooter than it had been for much of the eighty minutes that preceded it. Byron jumped to an early 12-0 lead through converted tries to Cale Rowston, their bullocking hooker, and a seventy-metre intercept to centre Chris King. They looked the better organised outfit, crisply executing their patterns, but the debilitating conditions – it was a steamy afternoon and the going underfoot was heavy – soon took their toll. As did what seemed like an avalanche of penalties to the home side. After losing their smart young five-eighth to a serious shoulder injury, the Seagulls turned to Alwyn Roberts and Andrew Battese to lead the way and the wily veterans were up to the task. The Devils suddenly found themselves bogged in their own half for set after set. Forced to do an enormous amount of tackling, nobody shirked it. That they only conceded the one try, to Roberts, was indicative of the spirit and commitment that novice coach Tobin Cupples has already instilled in the side. the final term. Final scores were Tweed 10-9 69 to Byron 4-5 29. Best players were Morrit, Ryan, Young, Petty, and Johnston. It was a big improvement on last week’s game and showed the potential of the new look Byron Magpies. With players getting to know each other

It was only the Red Devils’ ever alert winger, Dwayne ‘Drano’ Cahill, who noticed the UFO at Kingsford Smith Park last Sunday.

Time after time the Seagulls came at them, but the Bay didn’t look like cracking – it was the crucial twenty minutes of play that, in the wash-up, determined the outcome. Halfback Cameron Gibson typified the boys’ commitment when, after yet another line drop-out, he raced up to smash one of the Ballina props. The impact was awesome. Leading by 12-6 going to the sheds, you got the impression that the Devils had weathered the storm and that if they could hang on to the ball for long enough they would be home and hosed. It turned out to be a big ‘if ’. For the men in red, the second half was uncomfortand hopefully getting on the paddock this week, the signs are good for this week’s game against Lismore Swans at Lismore.

In an effort to appease our very one-eyed Collingwood-supporting sports editor, we will again follow the adventures of the junior Magpies on the road to their senior AFL careers. The Little Maggies Junior AFL teams are back and ready for another season with both the U9 and U10 teams launching into the season playing against the Lismore Swans in Casino on Sunday.The league had to relocate

most of the weekend games to new fields due to the ground conditions from the recent rains across the region. The Swans and the Maggies all put in huge efforts with great ball work and showed that this season is going to be a really good one for junior AFL. We can’t say what the score was because the little guys don’t play competitively but it sure kept my eyes glued to the game with suspense.

ably similar to the first. They kicked away to a twelve point lead after an enormous bomb from King was fumbled by the Seagulls’ full-back, resulting in a try to Ben Webber, then pursued the logical tactic of keeping play in their opponents’ half. But with some assistance from the ref and encouraged by a lady barracker who sounded like my clapped out lawnmower, the Seagulls persisted. Roberts set up a try to make it 18-10 and the slog continued.

Relief came when King and rangy winger James Harrington worked a blind-side overlap and, on the death, Harrington notched his second after a long break by Rowston. Byron’s forwards won the day, with Chris Coleman, backing up from the reggies, and toothless Simon Kelly bending the line every time they touched the ball. On firmer ground and remembering that possession is nine-tenths of the law, the Red Devils promise much in 2012.

Mullum hockey gets muddy

Union: two out of three ain’t bad Considering two of our local teams played each other on the weekend, a double local win is a great start to the 2012 Village Rugby season.

Though the sun shone, the grass field at Murwillumbah was awash with mud for the third round of the Tweed Border Hockey’s Mullum Mudcrabs. The Muddies had a two-all draw against the highly fancied Murwillumbah team at Saturday round of Tweed Border D2

men’s hockey. Two great goals came from Adam Gadowski and he was unlucky to be dissalowed a third. Abel East Mudcrabs was the players’ player. Mullum D3 men lost 4-nil against last years premiers the Jags. Improved effort from everyone. Bruce Schumachmafia was the players’ player match.

Mullum D2 Women played a hard-fought game with no subs to fight back to a threeall draw against Pottsville. At half time they were 3-1 down. With determination, skill and strength they clawed their way back up to draw – Pottsville lucky the whistle blew when it did. D3 Women had a bye.

Byron Bay continued its three year dominance over Bangalow with a dramatic 9-8 away win on the first weekend of Village Rugby. The Bay now has a six match winning streak against their shire neighbours. Few teams are able to match the experienced Bangalow for early intensity but Byron Bay dominated the first quarter of the game with an old fashioned brand of wet weather rugby. Playmaker Tom Sandstrom launched a series of swirling high balls and centre pair Matt Dennis and Al Matheson were brutal in defence. Byron converted two penalties to lead 6-0 but the home side found their rhythm and started to maintain possession for long periods. The pressure told and Bangalow took an 8-6 lead into the break. For an opening round game, the second half was played with Grand Final intensity. Byron Bay played with only 17 players and were dealt a blow when champion lock Dan Ryan dislocated his shoulder and talented halfback Nathan Nichols left the field with a badly corked leg. Josh Smith compounded the visitors’ problems after being red carded for retaliation.

with an inspired mud and guts 5–3 victory in the torrential rain at Iluka. The Cossacks dominated the first fifteen minutes without ever threatening the line but posting a valuable three pointer. From the restart the Shiners took the initiative and kept the pressure on twice opting to run penalties. It paid dividends when Lachlan Stubbs crashed over in the corner to give the Shiners a two point advantage. The front row of Stubbs, Seymour Walters and Matt Perry were joined at the hip and gave a massive effort throughout the game, with the ball like a cake of soap the game settled into a good oldfashioned trench battle. Possession and territory was evenly shared in a second half dominated by scrums, rucks and mauls. The Shiners displayed great discipline and commitment to the task in thwarting all Cossack attacks. Stubbs as players’ player, the ageless Seymour Walters came up with the refs three votes with Dillon ‘Weeman’ Pyne also in the mix for his tireless chasing and fearless tackling. Ridgy scruffed them in the mauls, Pottsy flew gazelle like in the air, while Leon Matchett-Oates battered them from breakaway. Plenty more could be mentioned in what was a terrific team effort. The highlight was definitely the rousing rendition of the club song. The tough win was a good platform for the Ashes clash What kind of Rugby? against Byron this Saturday afat the Stan Thomson Moonshine Rugby! ternoon Fields Brunswick Heads. Any players wanting a piece Dean Trevaskis of that action get to training The Moonshiners have on Mondays and Wednesdays opened their 2012 campaign at Bruns. seemed inevitable the home side would regain the lead. But in one of the best defensive performances seen in Village Rugby, Byron Bay held their opposition scoreless in the second half. Powerful number 8 Michael Armstrong won a crucial turnover on Byron’s own try line and after a disciplined build up the Bay was awarded a penalty 35 metres from goal. Nichols had bravely returned to the field and proved the match winner with his third conversion from as many attempts. Once in front Byron Bay defended the last nine minutes with renewed fervour, leaving a number of Bangalow players strewn across the field. While the game lacked nothing in passion and physicality, both teams will improve significantly in the coming months. Byron are traditionally slow starters and are looking forward to the return of a number of injured and semiretired players while Bangalow is adjusting to a more open style of rugby. The Bay’s forward pack was outstanding against their vastly more experienced opposition. Former Bangalow player Tom Homer captained the Bay and lead by example. Rejuvenated flanker Pete Shaw was the best player in a very even contest while Sandstrom, Nichols and Armstrong were all outstanding. Byron Bay play their other traditional rival, the Moonshiners, in Mullumbimby this Saturday.

Green homes use 80 per cent less energy Clever, inexpensive design can cut the energy used in new homes by up to 80 per cent, says a Queensland University of Technology (QUT) researcher. QUT science and engineering researcher Wendy Miller, from the Science and Engineering Faculty, has completed a PhD on sustainable housing, tracking the development of homes at The Ecovillage in Currumbin, and is monitoring the design, construction and liveability of various environmentally-friendly houses in South East Queensland and Townsville. Ms Miller found good design, solar hot water and energy efficient appliances in houses can reduce energy consumption by 50 to 80 per cent compared to the average Queensland household. She said the key to reducing a home’s carbon footprint was to build a home that was naturally comfortable to live in, eliminating the need for air conditioning. ‘The study found the best houses in The Ecovillage used 80 per cent less energy, while the average electricity consumption of Ecovillage houses was less than 50 per cent of the average home in Queensland,’ Ms Miller said. ‘These houses were built under guidelines which specified they use natural breezes, energy

house design right first, then to add solar hot water, energy efficient appliances and light bulbs, because once you have these things, your electricity use is very low, and you don’t need as many solar panels to meet your needs,’ she said. ‘An environmentally friendly home needn’t cost more to build, or could even be cheaper to build, with good planning, and architects and builders who are familiar with building green houses. And they are cheaper to run since they use much less electricity.’

house doesn’t take up the whole of the block. Keeping the house to 50 per cent or less of the block size allows for breezes, shady trees and gardens that help to keep the house cool in summer.’ Ms Miller followed a number of Ecovillage families over three years through the process of design, construction and occupation. The houses had monitoring equipment installed to track the use of lighting, power, solar energy, hot water, rainwater and recycled water. ‘It is most important to get the

efficient appliances, solar power, solar hot water and no air conditioning.’ Ms Miller said these same results were possible in regular housing estates, providing the land was used well. Good architecture is essential, but green houses are also dependent on good urban planning,’ she said. ‘Housing estates need to be carved up to accommodate environmentally friendly architecture, allowing for as many north facing blocks as possible. ‘Also, it is important that the

Farewell to the always-interesting GPSpeak, the publication of the Northern Rivers General Practice Network www. nrgpn.org.au.
