Councillor line-up announced Luis Feliu

Five new faces make up the new nineseat Byron Shire Council for the next four years, with a much slimmer majority for the progressive-Green bloc which previously dominated. The new council is Simon Richardson (Greens mayor), Diane Woods (Independent), Rose Wanchap (Greens), Sol Ibrahim (Independent), Chris Cubis (Woods’s Independent), Duncan Dey (Greens), Basil Cameron (Our Sustainable Future), Paul Spooner (Real Independents) and Alan Hunter (Woods’s Independent). Cr Richardson was confirmed mayor last week after a close vote with

conservative rival Diane Woods – 7,090 votes – against 6,232 after preferences were distributed. The new faces on council are realtor Rose Wanchap, who was second on Cr Richardson’s Greens ticket, CEO of Northern Rivers Childcare Services Sol Ibrahim, Byron Steel business owner Chris Cubis (the No 2 on Cr Woods’s ticket), Byron Bay Community Centre manager Paul Spooner (Real Independents) and Myocum farmer Alan Hunter (also on Cr Woods’s ticket). A familiar local government face is that of Duncan Dey, who was number three on Cr Richardson’s Greens ticket and served as a councillor before 2008.

Outgoing councillor Tom Tabart, who observed the preference distribution event, said the result meant the Greens-progressives bloc had a majority of one, but mayor Richardson also had the casting vote if the vote was tied. Despite a reciprocal preference deal with Cr Woods, Mr Ibrahim told The Echo that he does not consider himself a conservative ‘within the normal political spectrum.’ ‘I am not a conservative voter in state or federal elections… It is my intention to be a balanced and progressive councillor, sitting firmly in the centre,’ he said. Q Councillors’ vision page 5

It hasn’t even been made public yet, but already the draft Local Environmental Plan (LEP) is under fire from rural landowners concerned that it potentially devalues property, contains conflicting overlaying zonings and would require DAs to be lodged where they weren’t required previously. The issue has been raised before; The Echo’s August 28 edition ran a story, ‘Cr Woods and Barham at odds over LEP’, where Cr Woods called for a review of the draft. ‘The draft LEP has E2 and E3 zonings,’ Cr Woods said, ‘both of which can be applied to rural properties and both of which create significant restrictions for the landholders.’ But then-mayor Jan Barham dismissed the claims, saying, ‘The Native Vegetation Act 2003, which overrides the LEP, allows for farmers to carry out routine agricultural activities.’ Cr Barham added that the formal exhibition process would address any public concerns such as the accuracy of E2 and E3 mapping. Curiously however, Council has published a teaser from the LEP on its website: ‘Land zoning maps’. Although a disclaimer on every page clearly claims the maps are not final, why publish it? Resident Louise Savrda is critical of what she has already seen of Council’s draft LEP. She and her husband Rowan run Claire Valley Farm, a 50-hectare cattle farm in Bangalow’s hinterland. ‘Council staff made zoning decisions based on an aerial photograph of the shire taken in 1991,’ she told The Echo. ‘Things have changed since then. You can’t asses vegetation of significance from an aerial photograph; you have to visit the property to see what’s growing “at ground level”. ‘But no-one from council has walked

the talk – there has been no on-ground assessment or consultation. Bad decisions have been made as a result. ‘What is of real concern to me is that I’ve only found out about this through my neighbour, a fellow farmer. Why hasn’t council contacted me and all other affected residents? If council can send me a rates notice, then surely they can send me a letter about this?’

We all need to be lawyers to understand that? When asked about former mayor Barham’s comments that the Native Vegetation Act 2003 overrides the LEP, Mrs Savrda said, ‘So we all need to be lawyers to understand that?’ ‘We have to sit down and work out which Act takes precedence over another? It should be simple. We are confused and everyone wants do the right thing but most will stop doing continued on page 2

LEP fun facts According to www.planning. nsw.gov.au, ‘Through zoning and development controls, they [LEPs] allow councils and other consent authorities to manage the ways in which land is used.’ But it’s been a rough ride for many local councils over their LEPs. The state government gives councils directives over their LEPs and, through many incarnations of Liberal and Labor, have made amendments that have put pressure on councils to continually conform to their changes. A standardised template for all NSW councils’ LEP’s was introduced in 2006, with the most recent amendment made by the state earlier this year.

anything for fear of being punished. It is my understanding that if I stop farming an E2 zone for 12 months, I may lose my right to farm that land forever.’ She also says that a deadline for state funding on LEP assistance meant the process was rushed. ‘It’s either that or the project is off the rails with a lack of resources.’

Peace Day Friday To celebrate International Peace Day, events are planned at the Peace Pole, east of Byron Surf Club, on Friday September 21 at 3pm. Participants are encouraged to bring banners and flags for the peace march, which leaves the pole at 5pm. The celebrations will continue with performers at the fundraiser for East Africa Relief Fund. Co-ordinator Margeaux Marshall says, ‘In 192 countries last year there were 5000 marches on the day, including North Korea, Port au Prince, Sudan, Haiti and Rio. There were 82 UN aid initiatives into conflict zones in Afghanistan when the fighting ceased for the day. In 151 countries, 10,000 educators used the conflict resolution kit provided by Peace One Day.’ See www.facebook.com/#!/ ByronPeaceOneDay for more.

Her neighbour and fellow farmer, Rex Harris, organised a public meeting on September 6 and concurred with The Echo that the mapping is flawed. ‘The LEP states the basis for rezoning agricultural land is the Byron Biodiversity Strategy 2004 and maps therein are dated 1991,’ he says. ‘Landowners can look up Google Maps, with the most recent photomap dated June 2011. Or for very high-definition photomaps, register with

nearmap.com to view photomaps dated July 2012, which cover parts of the Shire.’ He also was concerned with what he has seen regarding the draft LEP’s agricultural landusage. ‘Previously, agricultural usage was very specific and did not require council consent,’ he says.

Land usage changes ‘That usage was agriculture, which means the production of crops or fodder or horticulture, including growing of fruit, vegetables or flower crop production, or the production or breeding of livestock, poultry, other birds or bees for commercial purposes. Now the draft LEP provisions drastically reduce uses without consent to “extensive agriculture”, which means the production of crops or fodder, or the grazing of livestock, or bee keeping or a dairy (pasture based). ‘So if you want to do horti-

culture, including growing of fruit, vegetables or flower crop production on your agricultural land for commercial purposes, then you need to lodge a DA to seek consent. Such consent is not required in Ballina, Lismore or Kyogle shires.’ Another issue raised by Mr Harris is that by regenerating farmland with native foliage, it would be ‘locked’ and not be allowed to be rezoned. ‘As a member of the Big Scrub Landcare group I’m worried that once farmers realise that Byron Shire Council is identifying such rainforest regeneration areas for rezoning to environmental protection, then such heavy-handed control, could stop farmers doing good conservation… ‘Our valuer has advised that environmental zonings and wildlife overlays are bad news for property values. What concerns me most, though, is that making an LEP in which some

land is down zoned or sterilised could cause some families serious financial hardship and possible foreclosure on their land. If the Byron planners can’t provide councillors with clear, precise, current photomaps and groundtruthed data then they shouldn’t be making an LEP. ‘Two neighbours and I have had a “look over the fence” at this LEP’s effect on our properties and are horrified at what we have found so far. ‘The new LEP will turn the usage into a disfunctional nightmare with three new zones RU1, RU2, E2 then two overlays of wildlife corridor and drinkingwater provision and restrictions. Once this draft LEP goes on public exhibition some serious questions will be asked as to why such a flawed document could have been exhibited at all.’ Public exhibition of the draft LEP will commence on Monday September 24 and run for 60 days, says Council’s website.

Local News Metgasco gets its licence Chris Dobney

The state government last week renewed Metgasco’s Petroleum Exploration Licences 13 and 16, two of its key licences in the Lismore-Casino region. And it has issued the company’s first production licence for its previous test wells southwest of Casino, which will fire a 30MW power station in the area. The government also lifted the moratorium on fracking and renewed a number of other CSG exploration licences across NSW. On the same day, the government released its muchvaunted Strategic Regional Land Use Policy, which immediately faced a blizzard of opposition from a range of groups. ‘The NSW community should be confident now that yet another state government has thoroughly assessed the industry and given CSG a green light,’ Metgasco CEO Peter Henderson said last week. A Metgasco spokesperson told The Echo the licence relates to a previous Part 3A ruling by the former state Labor government. Lock the Gate Northern Rivers spokesperson Ian Gaillard described the licence renewals as ‘an insult to the communities of the region who are overwhelmingly opposed to the industry.’

Voting technology used for first time Luis Feliu

Preference distribution for the election was finalised last week in only a matter of minutes in the ‘live event’ at Mullumbimby Civic Centre. It was because new computing technology was used for the first time in the region by the NSW Electoral Commission (NSWEC). A push of a button is all it

Bangalow’s musical odyssey

took to sort out the complicated preference distribution for the final positions to be determined. Byron Shire returning officer Ian Smith executed the computer number-crunching once word was received from the NSWEC in Sydney and the results flashed up on a screen for the 20 or so members of the public and candidates attending to watch live. Mr Smith said the use of the technology

was a first for the region and a source of fascination for media and public observers. ‘After a slight delay at the beginning, it took 25 rounds of preference distribution for the last three candidates to obtain quota. The process took no more than two minutes,’ he told The Echo. He also praised the dozen or so skilled data-entry operators who fed the count into the Sydney-linked computer.

Meet the newly elected councillors and their four-year goals Hans Lovejoy

Paul Spooner (Real Independents)

The Echo asked the new and returning councillors what they hope to achieve in their four-year term and what they consider their priorities to be. Mayor Simon Richardson did not reply by the time of going to press. Diane Woods (Woods Independent team)

A top priority for me during this term on Council is to ensure that we return to a viable financial position. That means reinstating as close as possible our $1 million reserves. Because of the new liability, we have been forced to accept as a result of the changes to the management structure of Byron Pool complex, our financial position at the end of this financial year is very grim. (Somewhere around $100,000 to $200.000 depending on final cost of division of assets ie Byron pool and Fish Heads). To regain a workable reserve will require a very vigilant Council that considers very carefully its resolutions and the effect/s that they may have on the bottom line. It will also require Council to restrain the desire to proceed to litigation, and a willingness to negotiate with landowners on their development applications and try to find a can-do answer. An absolute must is the appointment of a general manager who is focused on how to get us back in the black (only just still there), and at the same time be able to satisfy all of our community’s highest priority needs. I also intend to address the adverse effects of the draft Local Environment Plan (LEP) and in particular those areas affected by the E2 and E3 zones, and the negative effects on landowners. In addition, the proposed two-year moratorium on unapproved dwellings to allow property owners to come to us without fear or favour, and work together to resolve problems and bring those dwellings into compliance where possible, is a promise I intend to uphold. Chris G Cubis (Woods Independent team)

My priorities for the Council term: stem council waste, mutual respect and a workable council, preserve and maintain community assets, sensible financial management and property rights. Three cheers for brevity! Alan Hunter (Woods Independent team)

I hope to see a much less adversarial approach to all issues by Council and greater consideration for the shire-wide good derived from enhanced commercial activity in all of council’s decisions. I think the balance between the environwww.echo.net.au

ment, the local economy and community facilities has got a little out of whack. The proposed LEP is an example where farmers who have been working the land for years and in many cases doing their own environmental restoration and conservation on their farm are increasingly restricted in what they can do. Where a farmer has demonstrated a commitment to best practice and environmental conservation they should be encouraged to continue and concessions made to allow the farmer to carry out the business without unnecessary restrictions. There is little in the proposed LEP that will encourage farmers and in some instances reportedly even the proposed LEP has dropped the land value by 50 per cent. If we lighten the load on the landowner they can lighten the load on the environment. There has been a lot of concern expressed about Council meeting its future financial obligations. No doubt it’s an issue we will have to address sooner rather than later. I would like to see Council get back to its core business like road maintenance and do it better, return to a sustainable cash flow management without having our hand in the community’s pocket all the time. Sol Ibrahim (Independent)

My internal governance priorities as a councillor are: Contribute my experience in recruitment and management to the selection and induction of the new general manager (GM). Establish a professional employer/employee working relationship between Council and the general manager. Review operational policies and planning instruments to ensure that they are consistent, concise and aligned to community expectations. Break down the entrenched polarisation within Council. Establish a culture of mutual respect which recognises

individual expertise. Promote independent decision making based on application of law, common sense, and winwin solutions. Conduct cost/ benefit analyses of all matters which are currently before the courts, or likely to lead to court action. Negotiate in good faith to resolve conflicts and find innovative alternatives which benefit the community. Give equal consideration to the diverse needs and interests within the community. Ensure that policy does not significantly benefit or adversely affect one group over another. Extend this to staff interactions with residents. My external operational priorities include: A full re-write of the Draft LEP based on accurate mapping, genuine consultation, and empathy for the potential adverse impacts on all landowners. Create incentives for rural and coastal landowners to invest in the preservation and expansion of natural environments. Promote the creation of affordable rental housing in rural areas by facilitating ‘granny flats’ and ‘studio’ additions. Increase expenditure on road and amenities maintenance. Ensure our northern and rural residents receive their fair share. Update equipment and methods to best practice. A complete re-write of Council’s tender process, with a greater emphasis on local enterprise, community management, and security for operators. Grow Council revenue streams through business and community partnerships and expanded service provision. Commence staged works on the large Byron bypass. Seek government assistance and targeted developer contributions. Initiate revenue-generating cultural activities on the underutilised Byron sports fields and Island Quarry (IQ) in partnership with community groups and local businesses.

Adopt a Local Preference Policy. The markets policy has been poorly handled and we need to find a sensible solution that ensures local traders and community organisations are protected. It is nonsensical to remove preference for local farmers at farmers markets and local artisans and stallholders at our community markets. We have recently seen local surf school operators forced out of business by the Council licensing system. We have also seen the threat to the livelihoods of market stallholders by the draft market policy proposed in the last term of Council. A Local Preference Policy would cover council licences, leases and purchasing of goods and services. Currently, there is no obligation on Council to buy locally where possible and if all things are equal. It is only sensible that we support ratepayers’ money to stay in the local economy. More vibrant local businesses means more jobs for local people. Secondly, the rezoning plans are concerning and need careful consideration, and I will play my part in getting that right. Beyond those two immediate issues we need to invigorate council and make it work better for the community, make approval processes easier for people wanting to establish community events throughout the Shire. This will ensure the heart and soul of our community while encouraging community safety and the expression of diverse public art forms. This includes keeping the sunset drumming circle as a legitimate and legal event in Byron Bay culture. Encourage business and tourism opportunities in the shire that respect both the environment and the community. Better management of public facilities including roads, bikeways, council buildings, and waste-disposal services. Beyond that I am hoping to ensure all residents feel they live in a area where they are

by councillors and relevant council staff. To do so effectively, I would like to call on all the various groups to gather their champions to meet in a spirit of goodwill and I welcome their well researched thoughts and ideas. My focus will also be on the new proposal of the O’Farrell government’s change to planning laws to take local council out of the picture though the time for submissions is up unfortunately. A nice ploy by them to bring it out while all the councils were focused on the elections. More on this is available from David Shoebridge’s website: www.davidshoebridge. org.au/planningreform. I don’t know what we can do about this since the state government is hellbent on opening NSW up to development and growth at any cost but I would imagine the first thing would be to get all nine Byron Shire councillors on the same page with it. A tall task but I am up for it.

achievement; (iii) insisting on good governance. I also want to treat developers fairly – tell them when they’ve got it right or what they’ve got wrong. Get the LEP finished but with environmental zonings that reflect our local needs while still preserving and enhancing biodiversity (and all of natural life). Pay more attention to legal cases by reinstating the Dispute Resolutions Committee (DRC). Make the annual budget and management plan reflect our community’s aspirations. Encourage festivals but hold site owners to their obligations to respect the environment. Fast track a Local Preference Policy and support local enterprises (surf schools, markets, etc). Sort out holiday letting and beach preservation in Byron Bay. Review the Marshalls Creek Floodplain Management Plan and update it to the new survey. Draw on community

input through advisory Committees. Let the community know what its Council is doing. Encourage visitors to contribute towards the infrastructure they use. Encourage alternative transport including light rail, bicycles, park and ride, etc. Get better value on road construction and maintenance. Introduce a policy on public and private road drainage that puts less road-base into our creeks. Assist northern villages to create a town plan. Bring the sportsfield at Billinudgel to fruition. Deal with state government plans to take over any lucrative public land, and to sell off others. Make waste collection work and minimise input to a new tip, within the Shire if possible. Minimise herbicide usage by Council, on public land and eventually on private land.

The state government’s Strategic Regional Land Use Policy (SRLUP) announced last week has met with a wave of criticism from farming and environmental groups. The long-awaited policy was promised as a way of placing controls on coal-seam gas (CSG) development but opponents say it is just a way of fasttracking development.

Sex, science and Jesus at the Drill Hall Ray Moynihan

For lovers of theatre, the play closing this weekend at Mullumbimby’s Drill Hall is a godsend. Adapted from a best-selling novel Honk if you are Jesus this irreverent and timely production is as intelligent and engaging as it is enjoyable. The hilarious story is set in a private Christian university on the Gold Coast, run by a bible-bashing Reverend

Schultz, whose dramatic sermons are performed with panache by Greg Aitken and whose young third wife, Mary-Beth, is brought to life ably by Eva Robinson. As the characters seduce and beguile each other, the play exposes a religion that looks more like a shonky business and an ethicallychallenged science that looks more like a shonky religion. While the direction and

acting is solid, the blazing performance of the redheaded lead Robynn Goddard is outstanding. Playing Mara Fox, the ambitious and frank IVF professor, Goddard brings a sensual magic to the stage, reminding the audience of the intense physical power of live theatre. The final performaces are Friday 21 – 8pm, Saturday 22 – 8pm and Sunday, 23 from 5pm at Mullumbimby’s Drill Hall.

Community Engine fuels Sample festival This year’s Sample Food Festival almost had to be cancelled after Essential Energy, which last year paid for powering the site and stallholders, pulled out at the eleventh hour.

Organiser of the festival, Remy Tancred, said Essential Energy’s structure changed and they couldn’t do it this year.

Gillard’s cheer squad sighs with relief Volume 27 #15

September 18, 2012

Extreme stupidity In a week in which most of the mainstream media managed to focus on a member of the royal family’s anatomy, contrast was provided by a Californian twat producing an amateurish anti-Islam video for the Media For Christ group, which went viral on YouTube, 21st-century technology inflaming machismo already fuelled by religious extremism. People died, but YouTube refused to take down the video. ‘We work hard to create a community everyone can enjoy and which also enables people to express different opinions,’ a YouTube statement said in defence of a video which enables viewers to enjoy a depiction of a religion’s prophet as a fraud, womaniser, homosexual and madman. These are not uncommon proclivities among many faith-based cults but it is hardly helpful to make such unsubstantiated claims in a tense international environment. Unfortunately the unrest spilled over to Sydney, where protesters, most of them peaceful, clashed with police and some poor child was made to carry a placard about beheading. Fortunately our political leaders supported our mainstream Islamic community and a spokesperson for Muslims Australia (www. muslimsaustralia.com.au) condemned the extremism. In this context it is wise to remember that it was a so-called Christian group which incited hatred in the first place and that Australians other than Muslims are capable of behaving like dickheads, too – witness the 2005 Cronulla riots. The US’s policy of forcibly intervening in the internal disputes of the Middle East probably hasn’t helped much either. While I’m more inclined to the late Christopher Hitchens’s view that ‘religion poisons everything’ (http://slate.me/s24XAY) – apart from St Vincent De Paul which sells some great secondhand T-shirts and the Salvos who feed the poor – I’m happy for people to believe all kinds of incredible things before breakfast if they don’t upset a secular society striving for egalitarianism and empathy. What does annoy me is that the so-called secular society so often panders to the whims of religions which would prefer that everyone toe their party line. Michael McDonald

f something looks too good to be true, then it probably is. But that pessimistic thought is unlikely to have bothered Julia Gillard as she picked up her papers on Monday to discover that not one but two opinion polls purported to show that both she and her party were surging forward in a manner which was starting to look all but irresistible. The great god who rules them all, Newspoll, actually had her on the brink of victory and its trusty companion, Nielsen, had her getting there fast. Moreover, both showed her personal approval on the rise and put her clearly ahead of Tony Abbott as preferred prime minister. Could it get any better than this? Well yes, actually. The same polls showed that the voters would still much rather have Kevin Rudd as prime minister; were Labor to change leaders, the election, on Monday’s figures, would be a shoo-in. But that was no longer the point. The obvious message was that while Labor would almost certainly win with Rudd, the party could now get here with Gillard. And given the very large pool of resentment against Rudd in caucus, that is effectively a knock-out. A few die-hards are still talking about one swallow not making summer, false dawns and rogue polls, but their warnings will be drowned out by the collective sigh of relief from Gillard’s more substantial cheer squad. At last it appears that she may be able to justify the faith they showed in her some 27 months ago and pay them back for all the angst and anguish they have suffered ever since on her behalf. So Gillard can now shake herself free of albatross Kevin and go back to moving forward, or whatever

the new slogan will be. There may, of course be both hiccup and stuff-ups along the way, but since the beginning of July the trendline has been undeniable. Labor is regaining momentum and the coalition has definitely stalled and is now starting to slip back. Even if the current polls prove altogether too rosy, Gillard can fairly claim to have

But now there are signs, so far no more than that but still

So Gillard can now shake herself free of albatross Kevin and go back to moving forward, or whatever the new slogan will be. by Mungo MacCallum turned the Titanic around. Or can she? Is it really the case that the voters are actually thinking more kindly of her and her party, or is it simply a matter of default – that disillusionment, distrust and even a touch of detestation for the opposition and its leader are starting to set in? To Gillard, for the moment at least, it probably doesn’t matter, but for Tony Abbott it could be the start of a serious crisis. Abbott has never really been popular with Liberal voters as a whole, or, more importantly, within his own party room. He has always been considered too undisciplined, too unpredictable, too extreme, too Catholic. His only real qualification for the leadership was his ability to attract and deliver votes and obviously while he had the coalition ten points ahead in the polls his position remained untouchable. But there was always a feeling among many of the true conservatives that once the election

the Mad Monk had some substance to them; perhaps Tony Windsor was telling the truth about Abbott offering to do anything to become prime minister except selling his arse. Perhaps Abbott is, in fact, all ambition and bluster. And if that impression takes hold and the voters decide it is not what they want after all, then Abbott will quickly become dispensable. And it is not as though there is a lack of potential replacements. Always towering over Abbott here has been a shadow no smaller than Malcolm Turnbull’s ego, and the hard fact is that the man Abbott replaced is still overwhelmingly preferred by the electorate as a whole and is now the choice even of coalition voters. But should the true rulers of the Liberal Party decide that Turnbull is still not really one of them, there is a much less edgy alternative in Howard’s great big bear, Joe Hockey, the man originally touted as a replacement for Turnbull but discarded when he refused to bow to the dictates of the hard right warlord Nick Minchin. Hockey used to be treated as a bit of a clown, hopelessly out of his depth as shadow treasurer, but he has learnt on the job and now qualifies as a substantial politician – particularly when put against Abbott, always seen as something of a political weathercock. It is not time to roll out the tumbrel yet, but there is restlessness in the ranks, and suddenly it is on the other side if the despatch box. Maybe, just maybe, the times they are a-changin’.

distinctly ominous, that he may not even get them across the line; that what looked like the biggest electoral avalanche in Australian history is turning into no more than a trickle, if not drying up altogether. It could, of course, be an aberration, a mere statistical glitch in the polling. It could be temporary relief about Gillard finally doing something, however ineffective, about asylum seekers. It could be a momentary hiatus caused by any one of a number of things – the savage budget and job cuts from the new conservative premiers, reaction to the reminders from Abbott’s student past, even sympathy for Gillard at the loss of her father. But it could also be more deep-seated: a dawning realisation that Abbott’s rodomontades about the carbon tax were wild exaggerations, and so, by extension, perhaps he Q See Mungo live at cannot be trusted about anything else either.

Alcohol problems and solutions Hans Lovejoy’s article on the Dan Murphy’s ‘super grogshop’ in the September 11 Echo is a classic example of how to confuse the issues when supposedly reporting events to the community. For starters let’s look at how other countries such as France (regarded as a socialist left society and therefore a place where our left leaning denizens would be comfortable) handle it. The French buy their alcoholic beverages in the same stores that they buy food and the like. Your beer and wine, etc are products on the store shelf just like anything else. Even more strikingly when pulling into the petrol station in rural areas to purchase your baguette you can also buy beer and wine! Do the French have alcohol misuse or underage binge drinking problems? Yes, they do, actually, but no worse than here and probably less. Where is the logic that substantiates the view that two liquor outlets are worse than one and three are even worse? If people are going to abuse al-

cohol they will do so no matter how many outlets there are. So ‘15-year-old Haley put it into context’. ‘Haley is often approached by spruikers from local bars and backpackers offering to buy her drinks.’ This has absolutely nothing to do with a retail liquor outlet; it is a problem for the nightclubs and, with the quite horrendous fines likely for staff selling alcohol to minors, this is most unlikely. But then what is 15-year-old Haley doing out on the streets at night? This is a problem for her parents. Let’s be honest, please. The problem for those opposing Dan Murphy’s is that it is owned by Woolworths. If this additional outlet in town was owned by a local person purveying your organic and gluten-free beers and wine (not yeast-free, sadly) they would be welcomed with open arms.

Kite surfer rescue

health for these children, but it would certainly be drawing a long bow to assume that most of these nodules will lead to cancer. Perhaps I have thyroid nodules also and maybe even F Douglas does as well – studies suggest that they might be common. Without further information about how common these are, how do we know this is bad? I am no supporter of nuclear power but I am a supporter of trying to get the facts straight.

Q

As reported in last week’s Echo, a local kite surfer rescued three swimmers caught in a rip in Byron Bay. It is the same place where two people drowned earlier this year. The police and rescued swimmers both agreed that the outcome could have been tragic if the female kiter wasn’t there. This incident shows that a ban of kite surfing in Byron as proposed by a few vocal detractors of the sport is the wrong approach. Kite surfers are generally safety conscious, considerate and can save lives! Andrew Hauserman

The real mechanics David Hall (Letters, September 11) denies that the fall of the NY twin towers was a collapse and some sort of energy source was needed. Well, it was a collapse engendered by massive structural damage and fuelled by good old gravity. Gravity provides an awful lot of energy. Try jumping up and down a lot. Very energetic. It beats me why such a simple explanation is passed over without any reason given, just assertion. Also the claim ‘for a hundred years quantum science has proved repeatedly that consciousness creates material reality’ is hogwash. Incorrect and misguided productions like What The Bleep and Dancing Wu Li Masters definitely included. One notes these have overlap in their cast of characters. The really sad thing is that

dent Byron, I’ve arrived in the whirlwind of angst of the general community with development and planning of a franchise liquor outlet. Although I’m a confirmed non-drinker I understand how a company would like to increase its revenue. From my observation it seems Byron is a very lucrative market (really, any populated beachside location) with the tourism industry and large influx of the youth demographic of backpackers who on the balance of probabilities more likely than not binge drink on a regular basis. I overheard some travellers on a tour bus relishing the accomplishment of ‘knocking back 120 beers in six hours’! In any size bus that’s a lot! So the company knows what the market is here and knows the potential for its bottom line. Therefore I suggest just one of the many ways in which we can cut down the ill effects of excessive alcohol consumption is this: limit the over-the-counter selling units of alcohol per

person. It’s that simple. The current law is flawed. Sure you can’t sell any more alcohol to an intoxicated person. But you sell as much as you want over the counter to people who want to get intoxicated! You are pre-loading them without any monitoring. Is it any wonder why binge drinking is such a problem? We could put memory chips inside the 18–24 age group IDs or vehicle licences in their own nationality so when they order or buy a drink it’s registered and if they order over the normal average quota, ie two drinks per hour, then they’re cut off and they are unable to be served any more, otherwise the owner or licensee of the premises has to pay a hefty fine. Of course there will be a few unscrupulous retailers or dodgy bars that will get caught, so the fine will cover the program costs. Oh yes, and ‘dry’ tour buses well!

The party’s over, the song is ended but the melody Q I believe the election outcome was good for everyone. It now means there is a balanced council, which will force the chamber to work together more cooperatively. The three conservatives and three Greens will need to negotiate equally with the three non-aligned councillors – Ibrahim, Cameron and Spooner. Throughout the campaign, Sol Ibrahim and the Vision In Action team were criticised for being pro-development and for preferencing the Di Woods team. This was cheap sloganeering as no-one wants to see over-development in the Byron

Shire and having Di Woods as #2 was the best use of the preferencing system. As late starters, we also found that the other teams had already made their preference deals (FYI, less than half of our primary voters chose to follow our ‘how to vote’ card). VIA represents a new force in local politics that believes it is too simplistic to choose between either protecting the environment or rampant development. There is a middle way and the vote showed people responded positively to this idea. Throughout the world, the old paradigm of left versus

Hayters Hill Q Congratulations to Simon Richardson on his election as mayor. As someone who has visited Byron Bay over 15 years or so, and now as a resident, I appreciate having someone in this role who appreciates what makes Byron special. As the election campaign went on, I became increasingly concerned about the negative campaigning that was occurring and the too-tricky-by-half endeavours to hide sources of funding by one of his opponents. We are now in the fortunate position of having councillors with a diversity of views and experiences. Let’s hope that they can put adversarial politics aside, as finding solutions for the difficult big and complex issues that confront us will only happen if people work together in good spirit.

Of the 21,568 electors in this tiny tinpot joke of a shire only 76 per cent could be bothered voting and of them 12 per cent cast invalid votes which means that only 64 per cent of electors decided the result.

lingers on for those in search of change and renewal of mayor of Byron Shire. The numbers show that it was a very close-run race and not accepted as a popular win by a large majority of the voters north of the shire and, according to the numbers, also Byron Bay. To those who voted for Diane Woods in the hope of getting some commonsense governance and recognition for the ratepayers, I’ve been informed that, contrary to Sol Ibrahim’s how-to-vote handouts, 1,172 votes that should have been preferenced to Diane Woods were not marked accordingly. If she had received these preferences I understand that she would have gained the mayoral position. Alas, too late, what’s done is done, but a good indication of how close it was. Simon Richardson won but if the people who voted for him were connected in any way with the ‘mantra’ in the Echonetdaily on the Friday night before the elections, ‘vote early, vote often’, the blatant vandalism of the Woods team electronic signs and the desecration of the Woods team coreflutes with green paint, plus indirect threats to two businesses who ‘dared’ to display the Woods team coreflutes, are any example of his

followers in this ‘green’ shire, then, Mr Richardson, you have nothing to be proud of. These actions sicken me and are so undemocratic that it beggars belief. How desperate and low can people become. Thank God the Green power and the fear it carries with it has been challenged and buried. We are no longer under Green-dominated power in Council. Finally, ‘the winds of change’, here and in so many other areas. Mr Richardson, you are now the mayor of the whole of the shire. You are under scrutiny. Let’s see how fair-minded, unbiased and understanding you will be towards all of the constituents. To the mayor, the new council and the staff: do remember, you take on your responsibilites as public servants, not as egomaniacs or bully-boys. Good luck and good governance. Donna Hammond

Ocean Shores Q We

would like to send our congratulations to the councillors who have been elected by the residents of Byron. Now it’s time to get to get to work and bring about the change by bringing what you promised on your campaign tour to fruition.

As the president of South Golden Beach Community Association, I went to three meet-the-candidates nights and watched the people from the north believe your words and hear your promises. So in no particular order I put it to you: t :FMHVO GFTUJWBM TJUF NFFU with concerned residents and select people from the north to sit on the Regulatory Working Group. They will be the ones most affected and their reps should be included in that group. Also meet with community groups to hear their very real concerns about this development, then convey them to the Local Emergency Group (police, SES, fire brigade, etc). t 'JOE UIF FYUSB NPOFZ UP fix the roads. t 4FDVSF UIF #JMMJ TQPSUT fields. t 3FUIJOL UIF GPSFTIPSFT policy. t %FBM XJUI GMPPEJOH BOE drainage issues. t 8PSL XJUI 5XFFE $PVODJM on the massive developments that are going to happen to the north of us that will increase our concerns about flooding, safety and amenity. t 4FDVSF UIF 3PVOEIPVTF site for community use. These are but a few of the major items that you all

made promises on. Why not set aside a day so that individual groups can come in and tell the new council what is happening in the north of the shire? At the candidates’ nights it was highly evident that some who have been elected have not the slightest idea of what the north and its many issues are. Some have never even spent time in the villages in the north. I eagerly wait to see what happens as you are now our duly elected ‘by the people for the people’ (not developers) councillors. Kathy Norley

President South Golden Beach Community Association Q Of the election coverage that

I read in The Echo there were two comments by candidates that stood out as significant, both of them made at a candidates’ forum in Byron a couple of weeks ago, as reported in The Echo of September 4. According to this coverage Simon Richardson was asked a question about whether holiday letting was legal, to which he replied, ‘You may say it’s legal but I don’t. Let’s find out.’ Wot!? After four years in council he still doesn’t know whether it’s legal or not, despite unlimited access to law-

yers? Unbelievable, isn’t it? You begin to understand why I was calling them stunned mullets. You can’t just blame the councillors; they rely on information provided to them by the permanent staff, and the information which they have provided on this subject was always vague, ambiguous and uninformative. This doesn’t excuse the councillors. None of them had the wit or guts to say ‘I don’t understand this and I want a clearer answer.’ Instead they just sat there and meekly accepted what they were given, passing a series of wishywashy motions that resolved nothing. Basil Cameron appears to have evaded adopting a clear position. Asked whether he opposed holiday letting, particularly in rural zones, he replied, ‘I see no distinction between rural and other zones’, adding that he supported lowimpact rural tourism. We’ll count that as a maybe. On another matter Basil seemed to confirm that he has some legal training: ‘I am able to apply my own knowledge and skills‌ looking at those matters.’ I can’t wait, Basil; so far I’ve seen you repeatedly voting on whether particular matters should be confiden-

tial or not without the slightest clue as to what the legal criteria might be, going along with procedures that are clearly counter to administrative law, and failing to challenge or explain legal advice that seems designed to leave councillors in the dark. You need to lift your game, mate, especially as you claim to have some relevant skills. I’m not very passionate about holiday letting and I entered the debate only when I perceived that council’s compliance staff were picking on rural hippies over illegal dwellings, in particular me, while holiday letters were protected. Earlier this year I proposed a neat solution to a Greens councillor, suggesting that all compliance action re holiday letting and illegal dwellings be suspended until the state government resolves the affordable-housing question. Said councillor agreed that this was an elegant idea, but then watered it down so that Crs Cameron and Morrissey might support it. The result was the kind of ineffectual wishy-washy motherhood statement that was typical of the last council. A hopeless bunch. Fast Buck$

Spin, waffle and disenchantment, but not too many surprises. That was the council election we had to have. Certainly the votes went along predictable lines. Diane Woods inherited the Ross Tucker mantle – she was a member of his group in 2008 – and her popularity also got across the line her group members Chris Cubis and Alan Hunter, who once ran as the National Party candidate against Justine Elliot in the federal stoush. While facing a significant swing against them – not surprising given a certain disenchantment and the popularity of Jan Barham last time – the Greens got up three councillors, Simon Richardson as mayor, Rose Wanchap and experienced former councillor Duncan Dey. So, you could say, a three– three ‘standoff ’ on philosophical lines which pretty much recontinued from page 11

Shadow government? Accepting I may be behind the eight ball on this, I just read an interesting thing on something called the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement. I can’t figure out if it’s the grandest of grand conspiracy theories or real. In short it is allegedly a rather secretive effort by international, largely US- and European-based, corporates and compliant politicians to create what is effectively a shadow government masquerading as transnational governance of trade policy. It will force democratically elected governments to do what they’re told by a corporate cabal or risk economic annihilation. While the web-based warnings seem to be from legitimate sources, creating that effect is not hard to do. And, of course, by the very nature of current global media control those involved in the TPP, if it’s for real, www.echo.net.au

flects the Shire’s demographic. In the mythical middle are Sol Ibrahim, Basil Cameron and Paul Spooner. Ibrahim is the dark horse. He ran as mayor without any discernible record in local activism and without any experience on council. Even so, he was third last to be eliminated from the mayoral count with 2,446 votes, ahead of Cameron’s 1,907. And it would have been Ibrahim’s preference spill that made the race to the post between Woods and Richardson a close one, with the Greens councillor winning 7,090 to 6,232. While Richardson led all the way, in the final count after Ibrahim was excluded Woods picked up 916 votes and Richardson 358. The other vote tallies in the mayoral race were Jack Sugarman 739 and Morgan 304. Woods has described the mayoral vote as ‘the closest in 20 years’. It was certainly much closer than in 2008 when Barwould include media interests that control the mainstream media in Australia, thus the lack of reporting. I have to give the concept some credence as the current corporate/financial system centred on the US and western Europe, which does control the world’s economy, is clearly collapsing with no obvious successor and no clear path of transition. It is always the last act of the despot that is the bloodiest, most violent, oppressive and desperate – the last grasp for power. I don’t know what to think. If it is real be very afraid; if it’s not, some people’s imaginations are spectacular. I’d be interested to see something on this and from sources other than the usual online suspects. Is it real?

New councillors: welcome to the House of Pain.

ham beat Tucker 7,973 to 4,841. In 2008 there was no third candidate with as strong a show as Ibrahim. Third home that year was John Lazarus with 832. In the councillor election voters spread their love across a range of candidates if they bothered to vote below the line. Once you get past the group leaders, the other candidates get total votes in the low double digits. The group and their individual candidate first preferences saw Group A (Woods) score 4,889, Group B (Spooner) 1,111, Group C (The Greens) 5,179, Group D (Ibrahim) 2,162, Group E (Kolbe) 782 and Group F (Cameron OSF) 1,455. In an electorate of 21,627 registered voters, around 15,000 voted for both mayor and councillors – which isn’t a bad percentage when the punitive fine is only $55. More indicative of voter ennui is the large informal vote across the north coast. It’s not just the Greens

they’re disenchanted with; it’s politics in general. In Byron Shire the informal vote was about 12 per cent. The Echo has had reports of electors voting for Mandy Nolan instead of the registered candidates or decorating their ballot papers with obscene drawings. So, four years ahead for a new council – only four of them have been on council before – and the job is not going to be an easy one. There are lots of complex decisions ahead, the new Byron Local Environmental Plan not the least among them, lots of lobbying and expectations to deal with, and a mountain of lessthan-enthralling paperwork to read. Good luck, and next time be careful what you wish for.

We live in a land of privilege. A lot of the world does not. By coming together we celebrate not as in party yahoo! but as in solidarity of affirming that there can be no peace without justice for all. Despite the issues on the table, local and global, we as a planet need to address if we are to learn tolerance for others and survive as a species,

we see a global groundswell of change of consciousness. The young of all cultures have a unity never seen before and they speak with one voice. They are connected by technology and are coming out from the ‘us and them’ mindsets of boundaries and borders. It is now ‘cool’ to care.

■ First ordinary meeting of the new council is so far scheduled for Thursday September 27 at 10.30am. Keen psephologists can track down all the counts at www.votensw.info.

Peace is passé When discussing peace I hear ‘inner peace precedes outer peace.’ It must be nice to live in one’s own bubble and protect a fragile peace. We work towards both. As I invite friends to come to Peace Day I hear ‘There won’t be peace till there is a change in consciousness’ and they walk away. But this occurs as we work together.

Quiet murmur of the sea versus the beat of the drums I took my elderly mother, a born-and-bred Bayite, up to Main Beach to enjoy some fish and chips and watch the sun set. But then there was the infernal, ubiquitous drumming! Okay, it might be the expression of someone’s spirituality but it runs roughshod over my spirituality which desires the quiet murmur of the sea as the sun sets. Don’t give me that c**p about it being a Byron Bay icon. Perhaps my mother’s generation of locals could suggest what is or isn’t an icon.

with conflict, to make things happen for the betterment of all in the shire. We do not have a quarrel with anybody; that’s why we drum and dance. And that’s why we will continue to gather and make music at Main Beach at sunset, as we have for over a decade. Indeed, we have been inundated with new recruits, some hardly out of their bassinets. And who was it who said: ‘For me, when the drumming stops in Byron, the town that is defined by gatherings of community is also over’? The new mayor of Byron Bay. The Byron vibe abides!

Hooray Jose Just saw Jose Feliciano in concert at the Tivoli in Brisbane. First of all, what a beautiful old theatre. Secondly – having spent many, many hours at the Bluesfest over the last decade or so checking out old legends, we were not sure what to expect from the old blind Puerto Rican maestro – maybe a sentimental trip down memory lane. Far from it. He was amazingly diverse and sweet, playing everything from B B King to the best version ever of Billy Jean to Elvis to California Dreamin and more. Tip to Peter Noble: get Jose for Bluesfest. Dave Lawrence

The House is Empty but the Heart is Full! WORLD MUSICIAN, CONTEMPORARY OF PAUL SIMON AND ONE HALF OF THE HOTTENTOTS, CARL CLEVES, HAS CREATED A VERY SPECIAL NEW ALBUM ENTITLED THE HOUSE IS EMPTY. HE SPOKE WITH THE ECHO ABOUT HIS UPCOMING LAUNCH. What inspired you to create The House is Empty ? The torments of my soul. How would you describe the genre of this album and the songs contained within? I struggle with genres, as they shift from album to album. David Hinz in Folkworld magazine calls The House is Empty the ‘missing link’ to the classic UK folk scene from the 1960s. The setting is acoustic, reminiscent of Dylan’s Blood on the Tracks and Joni Mitchell’s Blue. I didn’t realise it when I recorded these songs during a 16-month tour with the Hottentots around the world, but in hindsight I realise that I was looking for the voice of my roots. I was born in Belgium, a tiny country in the heart of Europe, and when I grew up I was exposed to all kinds of popular music on the radio: Italian and French hits, German schlagers, English rock music and pop and American R&B, broadcast from Luxembourg to the US soldiers in occupied Germany. The rawness of folk music and blues and the freedom of beat poetry gave me goosebumps. The House is Empty does have a definite European flavour. I even sing a Jacques Brel song on the CD. What is to you the essence of a great song? To touch. To connect. A direct line to your heart, your hips or feet. When you are crafting your music, what are the traps or obstacles that you try to avoid? Leave your editing hat on the clothes hanger while you are in a creative mood and drive your car without brakes. Return to it later with a critical eye. Persist gently. Some songs take an hour to write, others take years. Do you recognise a great song when you write it, or does that come in the playing? Finishing a song is like having a baby. You admire it and wonder how you managed to create such a wonderful thing. You play it over and over in a state of bliss. After a couple of days of doing this, the umbilical cord is cut and you sober up and know whether it is truly great, mediocre or ready for the bin. Who are the people who have influenced you the most on your creative path? Big Bill Broonzy, Bert Jansch, Randy Newman, Jacques Brel, Leadbelly, Buddy Holly, Caetano

Born in Kansas City, Krystle Warren manages to fuse almost every American style, from country and folk to soul and jazz, in emotional songs that veer constantly between the familiar and the unexpected. To this she adds a powerful voice that can switch from deep and husky to sections where she suddenly climbs an octave or two, sounding like an entirely different singer. Krystle Warren burst upon English audiences with a show-stealing performance on the Jools Holland Later

Veloso, Bob Dylan, The Everly Brothers, Arthur Rimbaud, Sister Rosette Tharpe, Kurt Weil, Ray Charles, Parissa Bouas, Joni Mitchell, Corto Maltese, Townes van Zandt, Charles Bukowski, Woody Guthrie, Jules Verne, Milton Nascimento, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, The Beatles, Jack Kerouac, Tintin‌ Now you’ve got me raving, Mandy. You are such a traveller as well‌ how does this reflect in your songwriting and storytelling? A stranger in a strange land does not meddle, but observes and learns. A sense of humour, attitudes towards children, relationships, sex or music might change, yet every human being, anywhere in the world, has to tackle the challenges, potholes and car crashes of life. Having lived for long periods in foreign cultures – Latin America, Africa, the Arab world and Asia – I have not only enriched my emotional pallette and acquired a trunk full of stories but have soaked up song structures, guitar styles and rhythms. My songwriting and storytelling is constantly evolving. What should we expect from your Byron show? An entertaining concert with captivating stories, deep emotions and a fantastic band. I am thrilled to be joined by 10CC’s guitarist Rick Fenn, my Hottentots partner and favourite singer Parissa Bouas, and Byron’s ace bass player Thierry Fossemalle.

GETTING THE SWOOP ON MOTHER LOVE It’s out there. The black-and-white feathered assassin. I’ve just moved into my lovely new house and it was pure bliss until the world’s angriest mother starting attacking my kids. And me. I have two gorgeous old trees at the back of my house, and in one of them is a nest full of magpie babies. Mum and Dad magpie are notably proud, as they should be, although I should note I’ve had a good look at their nest and it’s shit. Just a few bits of wire and twig. If they spent more time making a better nest and less time divebombing my family, then I reckon they wouldn’t feel so vulnerable. In fact, if they spent more time in the nest, and less time stalking the neighbourhood, then perhaps they would experience some genuine conflict resolution. This is how it’s run. Day 1 – it hops on my deck and eats the cat food. Day 2 – it swoops Ivy in the backyard. She doesn’t even notice. I give

it the evil eye and it gives it right back. Day 3 – my son Charlie comes running home after setting off on his bike. He is red in the face with terror, wide-eyed, which is hard considering he’s inherited my squinty little eyes, ‘Mum the magpie attacked me!’ I have to drive Charlie to school. On the way out I spy the little fucker, just standing in my driveway. ‘Get away from my kids!’ I scream at it; it just turns its glassy yellow eye to regard me. It nods its head and flies off. I’m thinking, did that bird just threaten me? Day 4, Charlie is forced to ride to school with a large piece of wood protruding from his helmet and sunglasses. He sets off down the driveway and turns back, whether it’s fear or the shame of the magpie repellant outfit I’ve cleverly improvised, I’m not sure, but he seems to have lost his confidence when it comes to venturing outside. Day 5, my little three-year-old Ivy is screaming. She’s got a bleeding cut on her head and she’s hysterical. ‘The bird! The bird he cut me! He hurt my head!’ I rush to her aid, calm her down and look under her fringe. Sure enough there’s a claw mark on her forehead. Day 6, the maggie goes for the little girl next door. Day 7, a friend’s child rushes onto my patio holding his head: ‘The magpie got my head’. I look for cuts, but there are none. I give the kid a stick and instruct him on how to outwit a feathered assailant. I don’t like the bird. It’s becoming personal. Because you know what, I am a mother too, and this is my nest. We’re not climbing up the tree and swooping her babies. No. In fact, we’re the ones who left the tree there in the first place, so I expect some fricking gratitude. and of course the Nick Drake Way To Blue posse with shows across the UK, Italy and Australia. She recently supported Joan As Police Woman on her UK tour. Music critics instantly ’get’ Krystle too: As the Independent said, ’There are elements of Nina Simone and Joan Armatrading in folk-jazz singer Krystle Warren’s voice, and even Dusty at her dustiest’. While our own SMH said following the Way To Blue Sydney Opera House performance: ’… it was Warren who regularly stilled the room’. Krystle opens for Rufus Wainwright and also plays in his band on Saturday 29 September at Byron Community Centre. Tix at the Centre.

It swoops me on the deck while I’m trying to do the washing but I see it coming and I eyeball it. She has to pull out. It’s like a winged dinosaur. ‘Arrghghg!’ I scream. Then a very convincing ‘fuck off!’ and I chuck a peg at it. I actually hit it. It isn’t hurt; it’s angry. Later that day it has a go at me getting in the car. I see the shadow on the concrete on the approach, I turn and glare at it. Attack is averted. I am standing in the driveway screaming. ‘Get away!’ It attacks the kids in the front house. I am considering shooting it. But I don’t have a gun. I was quite prepared to leave it in peace. I was happy for the stupid thing to nest in my backyard. I certainly wasn’t going to interfere. I mean, I could have. I’ve seen the state of the nest. I was going to call DOCS. I mean what kind of mother lets her kids live like that? And clearly she’s violent. I am a protective mother too, but you know I’ve never tried to scratch up the heads of other people’s children. I am a patient woman, I was prepared to live and let live, but this bird has made it personal. This bird has gone too far. This bird is KFC. Sure, magpies aren’t endangered. But they are now.

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

Jesse, can you tell me what Emily means by the quote she uses when talking about Over the Sun, ‘The housewife goes mad’? I think Emily often writes about mundane aspects of life and finds a way to elevate them. There’s a theme running through this new album of people going about their everyday lives and something simmering underneath – like those little glimpses of inspiration (or madness) that flash across your mind when you least expect it. Is the entire album really about a housewife looking over her life… what would make you choose that kind of narrative for an album? The album is steeped in nostalgia. There are themes that re-appear

throughout a bunch of the tracks, but I think that the housewife isn’t necessarily a housewife… How has the inception and creation of this album differed from the others? We’ve been working on this album for well over a year. The recording started in 2011 with a couple of weeks with our new producer Steven Schram and our new drummer Daniel Farrugia. We were all getting to know each other – it felt like we were carefully building something. There was no rush and no deadline. We took a break from recording when Emily had her baby. This gave us time to reflect on what we had already recorded and whet we wanted to do. We had the skeleton of the album recorded and it was great to be able to go back to the studio to record for another week earlier this year. The whole process felt quite calm and relaxed in comparison to our other albums. Working with Steven Schram was brilliant – he added something quite magical to the recordings. Does Emily’s having a baby in tow now change the way you guys make music, or tour? I guess it makes us a little bit more selective about the shows we do, but it’s been quite an easy transition. Louis (Emily’s baby) is a great traveler – he’s great company on the road!

and life that has inspired his friends to stage the benefit concert that will be held at the Bangalow Bowling club, Dave’s home town. The THE PEPPER BOYS AT THE concert will SPHINX ROCK CAFE IN MT feature local BURRELL ON SUNDAY luminaries such as: Greg Lyons and his band Hip Operation (Scott Hills, Matt Hanley, Steve Russell), the Russell family band (Sharny, Steve and Lauren Lucille), Greg Sheehan and percussion group Time, Parissa Bouas & Carl Cleeves, with Thierry Fossemalle & Rick Fenn, Leigh Carriage with Zac Hurren, Dave Sanders, Matt Smith, Greenlife, Pink Zinc, Leigh James & Elizabeth Lord with Martha Baartz, Steve Russell and Matt Smith of Thirsty Merc and special guest Darren Percival. There will be special prizes on the night donated by Vitamin Records, Byron Music and Ku Promotions. Adam Biggs from Biggsounds will kindly ensure everything sounds sweet on the night ! Tix $20 on the door. 7pm. Bangalow Bowlo Wednesday 3 October. Bangalow pub hosts their market-day gig Sunday afternoon, Sept 23 from 12.30 to 3.30pm, featuring local troubadour Chris Aronsten.

ARONSTEN AT THE MARKETS Playing his original songs and selected covers, with fiddle tunes, bluegrass flat-picking on guitar, and instrumentals on mandolin and fiddle it’s no surprise Chris Aronsten garnered a four-star review from SMH’s Bruce Elder for his most recent album The Road to Ballyvaugn. In recent years Aronsten has begun making headway into the UK folk circuit, playing festivals, folk clubs and country-hall concerts around England, as well as some time in Ireland’s County Clare. He plays the Bangalow Markets this Sunday.

In making this album what was it in particular that you wanted to do differently? We wanted to expand our sound – we brought in Daniel on drums; he’s such a fantastic musician, he brings a whole new dimension to our sound. We wanted to capture something in the recordings and working with Steven Schram (producer) enabled us to explore the collection of songs in a new light. I think that this new album will still appeal to fans of our previous work, but it branches out into something new as well. How close did you come, do you think, to achieving what you set out to? As close as we could have hoped! How did the production by Steven Schram assist you and Emily in realising the vision for this production? Schram was instrumental (no pun intended) in bringing a new ingredient to this album. He has a brilliant ear and he managed to bring out the best in all our performances – I think that ‘s pretty much the most important thing that a producer can do. Is it difficult to translate the album to a live show? Many of the songs on this album have been a part of our live show for the past two years so it’s been quite an easy process bringing the songs to life in a live setting.

www.echo.net.au

What song are you proudest of and why? At the moment, I’m most proud of Over The Sun – it sparkles just how I imagined it would when I first heard Emily and Harry play it to us in preproduction. What song caused you the most grief? Over The Sun probably took us the longest to record, but it wasn’t a particularly harrowing experience! Schram was always careful not to let us get too

frustrated as we were recording – he made us take breaks when we needed. Lots of cups of tea… You’ve had involvement with MMF since the beginning, how do you view the festival…? MMF is my favourite festival! Glenn and the team have created something truly special. They bring a brilliantly eclectic mix of music to Mullumbimby and showcase the town so beautifully. I love the way they use the town’s

infrastructure – it feels like the festival just fits in to its surrounds – it’s not imposed. What should we expect from Tin Pan Orange for your upcoming Mullum Music Festival show?

LADIES NIGHT WITH MOON

These gentlemen create sound stories, weaving the elements and the everyday, using trumpets and saxophones, an assortment of guitars, keyboards, synths and drums. The resulting soundscapes shift between dreamy, dolce, dry and dark. Following a tumultuous 12 months of writing, recording, re-writing and re-recording, the result is music with innocence, poignancy, and beauty, inspired by the trips, dips, kicks, events, Earth and people we meet. Friday at the Beach Hotel, 9.30pm.

Moonstone all set to fire up Mullumbimby’s Middle Pub for Ladies Night this Saturday at 7pm.

BAND OF FREQUENCIES

With Petra on vocals delivering popular songs from the seventies till now, in her own inimitable style powerful sensitive and sexy, Bobbe on bass, Gil on drums… rock-solid grooves and, with the addition of rock guitar extraordinaire Rainer on lead, the night boasts an extravaganza of sexy dance funk and rock.

This band coined the phrases Free Soul, Cyclonic Sonics and Liberation Harmonics to describe their intentions to ’allow the present moment to evolve into a sound future while reflecting a deep respect for all who have come before us’. It’s this spirit that resonates within passionate music lovers who have embraced their sound. It’s this essence that has led to invitations to grace the stages of diverse festivals, at home and

culture RAINBOW CORROBORREE This Spring Equinox, Wahrla-Bal Custodian Lewis Walker, with permission from the Bundjalung Elders, invites all people to come and camp at Jabullam Community, beside the majestic Rocky River for the next Julinbah Yowarl or Rainbow Corroboree, for three days of sharing Dreamtime culture, sacred language, stories, songs, dances, lore, and much, much more. Hosting and highlighting this event will be the local Warlah-Bal Djaunagun Dance Troupe who, through song, dance, and ceremony, act out events from the Dreamtime and bring it to life. They amaze and captivate all those who witness, and at times will encourage spectators to become participants, and take part in the dance. There will be performances from other Indigenous artists, Dreamtime art on display, and opportunity to meet elders. Many musicians, some from the northern NSW region, and others from far and wide across the globe, continue to generously support this community fundraiser. This September sees the return of Rainbow Corroboree stalwarts Fyah Walk and Murray Kyle, and joining them for the first time this equinox will be Deya Dova, Wild Marmalade, and Bunna Lawrie and the Whale Dreamers. Supporting these bands will be many more diverse acts that will provide for three days of great music and entertainment.

Other activities include kids’ spaces, mystery dingo tours, bush food and medicine walks, and workshops. The Rainbow Chai Tent, Bunalbu Bush Cafe, One Mob Cafe, Happy People Chill, and other market stalls will provide some food and refreshments for sale.

s r a t S WITH LILITH

Spring equinox joining the Sun and Mercury in Virgo makes this the year’s most auspicious week for a new start – for bringing life into line with changing times and requirements…

E ARIES: Aries always love something new, so you’ll be chuffed to hear this week’s all about a new you. Though like the butterfly struggling out of its chrysalis, growing pains are part of the process, and the more relaxed you are the easier it will be to emerge. F TAURUS: With the planets of sex and energy (Mars) and love and socialising (Venus) both in fixed signs like yourself, this week’s – you guessed it – about being flexible: in your thinking, decisions, judgments and mindset. Yoga’s worth considering. And it’s the year’s primo period for eliminating bad habits. G G EMINI: This critical, analytical week showcases what you know (a lot), as well as filtering new insights into your consciousness. The way you behave and the decisions you make now will impact on your future, so don’t get caught up in other people’s blame, complaints or accusations. H CANCER: With the unholy trifecta of physical stress financial pressure and emotional angst taking its toll, if not on you then somebody you’re involved with, it’s imperative to ensure that your mood elevators are healthy ones. As in inspirational restoratives like art, friendship, creativity, moments of dedicated serenity… I LEO: Your majesties aren’t averse to thespian

entertainment, but this week’s histrionics (blowups, shout-downs, hissy fits, dummy-spits) could approach dramarama status. Let players of lesser stature lose it while your royals take starring roles as diplomatic ambassadors, restorers of accord and arbitrationmeisters. J VIRGO: After the year’s most Virgoan weekend, this let’s-get-physical week abounds with earthy delights inviting you to dive in, with only one note of caution on the cosmic storyboard: Mercury in Virgo can be quite the merciless critic, so soften sharp remarks with a little sweetness, honeybun. K L IBRA: After the equinoctial reminder of equilibrium, Libra’s perennial quest, Mercury arriving in your sign this week freshens up your perspective and provides insights and answers to recent perplexing questions. Be receptive to subtle signals and persistent nudges from your intuition, perhaps even from dreams. L SCORPIO: In ancient Greece this week celebrated Athena, the wisdom principle, and smart Scorps will take on board that the risk-to-reward ratio isn’t in your favour right now. While master-blaster Mars incites action, decisions made when agitated could wind up being pricey. So wait, scrutinise, be wise. M SAGITTARIUS: Last weekend’s equinox reminded us

how important balance is: of fast and slow, action and relaxing. So take it easy Archers – what’s the rush? Operating in overdrive this week could have the reverse result of underachieving, with multitasking meaning that important details are more easily missed. N CAPRICORN: As Pluto moves forward in Capricorn, others could have radically different opinions from yours this week and still be right – unbelievable, eh? – so exercising restraint in expressing opinions will limit the necessity for having to eat your words. Apart from that, it’s a seriously sexy week. O AQUARIUS: If you can’t control this week’s unruly emotions, adopt Aquarian Curious Observer mode and step away from the firing line. Or, if you’re interested in doing things differently, get a reality check and rather than resisting, listen even if you disagree. Then really take it in. P P ISCES: This week’s meta-Virgo energetics shine a laser beam of clarity through veils of fuzzy Neptunian thinking, making communication easier. Besides that, Venus is in the mood for lurve with Mars in passionate pursuit, spring is sprung and earthly party lights are plugged into the cosmic socket…

As a general rule, when a ‘There’s Times Square, with its big-studio franchise has got to modern-day corporate lack its third outing, it’s safe to say of character’ is a line that will that (with the exception of the fly over the head of any kid, ‘Twilight’ saga, which has been as is the existential angst that execrable all the way through) the animals experience when, the latest offering is better than upon their arrival in the Big the entirely forgettable second Apple, they realise that their but still not as good as the first. longing has been for a falsely And so it is here, though surely remembered past.

DuBois. Taken in by a circus troupe, Alex gets up close and personal with a cute leopard and works with her to restore the shattered confidence of Vitaly, the performing Russian tiger. I was disappointed by the script’s criticism of those who prefer circuses to be free of animal exploitation and unimpressed by the misogyny that created DuBois, but as an entertainment it’s passable. ~ John Campbell

The Watch Do you think that Kath and Kim embrace or mock those who live ‘ordinary’ (whatever that means) suburban lives? If you lean to the latter, you will immediately identify that tone in the depiction of Evan (Ben Stiller), a bloke who contentedly works in a megastore in a white-picketfence town in dowdy Ohio, for it is his lifestyle that is the underpinning joke. After the Latino security guard who has just earned his US citizenship is murdered and skinned, upright Evan decides to form a neighbourhood watch (that his neighbourhood doesn’t already have one seems incongruous). His only volunteers are Bob (Vince Vaughn), Franklin (Jonah Hill) and Jamarcus (Richard Ayoade), a bespectacled Englishman. None of the other guys’ motives are as civic minded as Evan’s, but they bond through their shared blokiness – a scene in which, inside Evan’s car, Bob pisses into an empty can before the boys sing along raucously to Bachman Turner Overdive’s You ain’t seen nothin’ yet has a certain joyous vulgarity about it. The stakes are raised when they discover that they are on the trail of aliens who, like all aliens, are intent on invading the planet. The plot is whacky and not helped by peripheral issues – Bob’s teenage daughter is giving him grief and Evan is keeping secret from his wife the fact that he is impotent (how this was meant to tie in with the story in some way completely baffled me). The gags aren’t terribly original and

rely heavily, not surprisingly, on outbursts of ‘what the fuck!?’ (a phrase of endless hilarity for some) and references to oral sex, but Stiller, Vaughn and Hill are so good at this sort of caper that they very nearly succeed in making a silk purse out of a sow’s ear. It’s no comic masterpiece – far from it – but, outside, an abrasive wind blew down tacky Jonson Street as a steady stream of Gold Coast 4x4s clogged the Bay’s arteries. I needed a laugh and, sweet mercy, I got plenty. ~ John Campbell

reign in the dimly lit shell of a house when they are caught red-handed attempting to enact their own fanciful scam. Faultless performances from all, with Waddell a treat as the no-hoper, Luke Ford scary as boneheaded Shrek, playing the same rap song over and over, and Lani John Tupu ferociously uncompromising as the Kiwi gangsta. Don’t miss it, it’s a killer. ~ John Campbell

The King Is Dead The neighbours from hell – who hasn’t encountered them? What to do about them is the burning question. Writer/director Rolf de Heer has dealt with the problem in what is, without shadow of doubt, the funniest and darkest black comedy that has come along in an age. It’s one of those ‘what if?’ scenarios that will resonate with anybody who has racked their brain trying to conceive of ways to counter the slings and arrows that inexorable fate so callously sends to test us. Max (Dan Wyllie) and Therese (Bojana Novakovic), two perfectly rational, shiraz-sipping yuppies, have just bought a federation bungalow in a quiet, red-tiledroof suburb of Adelaide. They are immediately on amicable terms with the neighbours on one side, for whose delightful little daughter Max will build a secret gate in their shared fence. The other next-door house, however, proves to be more challenging. Its occupant, King (Gary Waddell), is a middleaged, shuffling drug casualty whose mates come fanging around at all hours to get ripped and rowdy. A thumping bass, vile language and iceinduced screams regularly pierce the wee small hours, but the police are powerless to do anything except advise that earplugs might be the go. De Heer keeps it tight, never leaving the street for his location shots and patiently creating an atmosphere of mounting anxiety as Max and Therese forlornly muse over what retaliatory actions they might pursue. At their wits’ end, the young couple snap. Deciding to take matters into their own hands, they make an ill-fated excursion into the King’s domain. I can’t remember the last time I had such a belly-laugh. Chaos and terror

Television Guide

1. Monsters vs Aliens (TEN, Saturday, 6.30pm) is animated fun for the kids (and some adults) with an all-star cast of voices. Reese Witherspoon plays the main character who is struck by a meteorite on her wedding day and grows over 15 metres tall (it’s the quantonium, don’t you know), is kidnapped by the military and joins a force of elite monsters, including Seth Rogen as an indestructible gelatinous blob, and finds herself saving the world, as you do. 2. Terry Pratchett is a remarkable author, bringing much pleasure and insight to millions through his Discworld satirical fantasy series. His fans were stricken to learn he has Alzheimers. In Terry Pratchett: Choosing To Die (SBS1, Sunday, 9.30pm), we join Pratchett on a highly personal journey to explore the options available for euthanasia before his unique brain fizzles out. The doco includes a visit to the Dignitas Clinic in Switzerland, where assisted death is legal. See more about the author at www. terrypratchettbooks.com.

Multi award winning restaurants

was the subject of an Australian Story, the tape of which she lent me, and which made me cry. She tells me now that the main reason she opened her restaurant was of her husband‘s bad back : she wanted to a provide an easy employment for him – ‘give him a light job‘. Right from the beginning she offered a standard western menu and another she calls Asian Feasts. Funnily enough it‘s her western dishes that regulars mostly want. ‘I sell more racks of lamb (than Asian dishes) and the salmon goes crazy, and the steaks! I sell so much Blue Cheese Eye Fillet.‘ Several dishes she is unable to take off the menu since Day One: her Souffle Grand Marnier, her Wicked Duck. (It is the latter which people mostly cite as their all-time Muoi favourite. I have had it more than once, and adore it, adore it!) This is food some might describe as oldfashioned. Portions are generous, flavours are big. Because Muoi loves inventing dishes she always has fabulous vegetarian choices – like her Cheese Gow-Gee (filled with cottage cheese, fetta, potato and herbs and served with a sour cherry butter sauce.) Muoi loves her sauces – she spent two years at the Hilton making them every day. ‘You need a nice sauce for dishes.‘ And presentation is important to her. ‘The eye eat before the mouth‘, she tells me. Wondrously, refreshingly, she looks blank when I ask her opinion on molecular cuisine. She is in her restaurant from 11am until around 10pm – and ‘I enjoy every minute – but I prefer the last one!‘ Before I leave she says : ‘I‘ll be honest, if you‘re a happy person your food come out great. I‘m always happy… whatever the customer requests I do. That‘s my job! To do my job and make people happy…‘

SUFFOLK PARK

O-Sushi

Her constant presence in the restaurant she owns is, she believes, one key factor in Muoi‘s enduring popularity. The sort of popularity that sees her regularly required, even in the thick of winter, to turn away seventy people on a Saturday night. The sort of popularity that means, the many times I ask locals which is their favourite Byron Shire eatery, the answer is immediately Muoi‘s Feast. The sort of popularity that – and God only knows how she does it, really – enables her to keep all her mains under $30. During the panel on International Food Trends I attended back in May at the Noosa International Food & Wine Festival, an Italian restaurateur called Davide Scabin voiced his low opinion of those chef/owners, usually those in possession of more than one restaurant, who flitted all around the world. ‘In Italy‘, he said, ‘the chef is IN the restaurant!‘ He went on to say that in the one month of the year when he necessarily takes a break and absents himself from his establishment, many of his regulars will simply not visit; others wishing to make a reservation are only too happy to await his return. This, according to Davide, is fundamental to hospitality and to consistency. And here is Muoi, sitting opposite me over two iced coffees she has prepared for us, saying precisely the same thing. Next year her restaurant turns ten years old, no mean feat in this ruthless, unforgiving industry, nor in a fickle tourist town liked Byron Bay, nor in the midst of the tedious GFC. Shortly after Muoi opened her restaurant I had the pleasure of meeting her and writing about her. Vietnamese-born, she was a boat-person at a very early age, sent away by parents too impoverished to bring her up, adopted by a Queensland couple who thought a chef‘s apprenticeship might be a good idea. She

40 September 18, 2012 The Byron Shire Echo

How do you measure a contributing life? Extract from Professor Alan Fels’s first address to the National Press Club as chair of the National Mental Health Commission on August 1: t’s a great responsibility to be the chair of Australia’s first National Mental Health Commission. In fact it’s the greatest responsibility I’ve ever had and let me tell you why as both an economist and carer. This is important business. Mental illness can have a devastating effect on individuals and families – I know – and, while I believe that Australia has a good health system by international standards, it has two profound weaknesses: mental health and Indigenous health, of which mental health is a very significant component. Mental health needs to be a higher priority for governments and the community at all levels. The National Mental Health Commission is a new, independent body established to tell the truth about mental health services in Australia – the good and the bad, the gaps and the shortcomings. And it’s of great significance that we are located in the prime minister’s portfolio.

I

Whole of life The commission is the first of its kind to have a national whole-of-government scope, and a whole-of-life view – from health to employment to housing to stigma and discrimination. This signifies a commitment at the highest level to our mandate, hopefully ensures we meaningfully engage with COAG on its Ten Year Road Map for Mental Health and gives us an opportunity for the Commission to provide independent advice, showcase successes and make a case for improvement to the highest level of government. Most of us value our health and wellbeing and that of our families and loved ones above all else. And I include in wellbeing – economic wellbeing. However, there is no health and wellbeing without mental health. And there is no mental health without a view of the world that is wide and inclusive. You don’t achieve mental health by relying only on the health care system. I know that both intellectually and in my heart, as I’m the carer of my daughter who has schizophrenia. I’ve seen up close the impact of mental illness on the material basics of life that many of us consider as fundamental – perhaps even as human rights – such as accommodation, education, employment and social connectedness. You can’t achieve effective investment in mental health and wellbeing without your starting point being the person with mental illness and those around her or him. We’re talking about all of life – end to

end and side to side. And that’s enshrined in the National Mental Health Commission. I sometimes wonder if people get what is really meant by this whole-of-life approach. Because it’s essential, evidencebased and, I believe, indisputable. I’ll use schizophrenia as an example although labels in mental illness don’t matter as much as outcomes. There is a myth that people with schizophrenia don’t recover. They do recover: in fact anywhere from 20 to 40 per cent live fulfilling lives, often with jobs. Medications for people with chronic psychosis have made a huge difference. They reduce disordered thinking and harm very significantly, and make it easier for people to live in the community, but medications by themselves don’t affect recovery rates much at all – and by recovery I mean people leading the lives they aspire and wish to. How come? Well, it’s because no drug or hospital bed is going to repair people’s lives – the isolation caused by this condition, the demotivation and the potentially crippling loss of social skills.

Recovery For recovery to occur, you need somewhere decent, stable and safe to live, you need education and rehabilitation, you need physical health and ideally you also need a job. And while I chose schizophrenia as my example, this multi-faceted approach is true for major depression and bipolar disorder. Those are tasks for every part of government not just the bailiwick of the ministers for health and mental health. Mental health conditions are the third leading cause of burden of disease in Australia. They are the leading burden of disease for women, and suicide is the tenth leading cause of death for men. And it is worse in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. This devastating impact on individuals and our society, culture and economy means we must realign our thinking, ask more of non-health sectors and at the same time better integrate service and support systems. The establishment of the Commission on January 1 marked a major shift in the

<echowebsection=Classifieds>

view of mental health and suicide prevention. The Commission’s job is to observe, listen and then – with fierce independence – report and advise on what needs to happen, based on the lived experience of consumers, carers, families and the community. My fellow commissioner Janet Meagher puts it well: ‘People with mental health problems,’ she says, ‘want the same things as everyone else. Even the most disadvantaged should be able to lead a ‘contributing life’ – whatever that means for them – and this simple goal will be our touchstone and yardstick.’ When I talk about a ‘contributing life’, it is what I hope for my daughter Isabella. I think of a life where people can do satisfactory and potential activities, participate in work if appropriate, take part in family, develop relationships and achieve a good proportion of their potential. But how can you have a contributing life if you’re in poverty, isolated and struggling to re-learn social skills – despite wanting to work or do a satisfactory activity?

Jobless Be under no illusion – if you’re unemployed for a long time you and your children are either poor already or will become poor. Many people with mental illness in Australia want to work but find themselves less likely to find a job. The personal and national economic impact of mental health conditions is enormous and, to a large extent, preventable. There’s no amount of welfare that can replace the economic impact of having a job. Work integrates us into the community; work drags us out of poverty; work gives us independence; work helps to define us, and having a job contributes to the productivity of the nation. Employment, in my view, must be judged as a prime outcome of our investment in mental health. Preliminary research shows that Australian businesses lose over $6.5 billion each year by failing to provide early intervention and treatment for employees with mental health conditions. A conservative estimate from the International Labour Organization puts the cost of mental ill-health at three to

four per cent of gross domestic product in the European Union and there is no reason to assume we’re different. A new report by the Inspire Foundation in Australia has found that mental illness in young men costs the Australian economy $3.3 billion a year. According to a US study, workers with a mental disorder have a 50 per cent higher likelihood of involuntary job loss, and a 30 per cent increased likelihood of voluntary job-quits. Let’s take the mining industry as an example. An estimated average of between 8,000 to 10,000 employees in the mining industry experienced a common mental health illness like anxiety, depression or substance abuse over a 12-month period and that’s spread across all mining employment categories, from managers and professionals through to machinery operators and drivers. Estimated costs to the industry including lowered productivity are between $320 million to $450 million per year. And the mining industry is not alone. Recently, we’ve seen reports about mental health within the legal profession, among teachers, young doctors, nurses, members of the media, members of the defence forces, veterans, footballers, refugees, to mention but a few. The solutions include more knowledge in the workplace about mental illness and less fear and stigma so that people in distress can be helped as quickly as you’d expect with a physical illness. We believe in, and act on, prevention and early detection in heart disease and diabetes – why not mental health conditions? Groups like beyondblue and Sane Australia have innovative workplace programs but we need every workplace to be supported.

Integrated support Adequate, timely and well integrated supports will require co-operation and coordination – at different times and in different ways – of employment services, health services, education institutions and benefit authorities. Given that the majority of people with mental ill health are in work – a lot more needs to be done to ensure that workers retain their jobs. It comes back to the crucial role of good-quality jobs, good working conditions and, in particular, good management. Data shows that job discrimination based on a person’s mental health still occurs, meaning it’s harder to get a job and harder to keep one. This is a measure of our wellbeing as a nation.

Sharks’ 2012 victory Brunswick lifesavers’ new ATV toy

But seriously folks… Not a toy but a new ATV for saving lives on Brunswick Heads Beach. Newly re-elected for the eleventh season, club president Craig Reid, far left with re-elected club captain Casey Brennan, sent a huge thank-you shout-out to reps from Mullumbimby Motorcycles, the Hotel Brunswick and Apex/Lions/Rotary for making such a large contribution to the Brunswick SLSC. ‘This new ATV will ensure our beach surveillance is carried out in the highest standard’, said Craig on Sunday. ‘This will enhance our patrolling duties.’ The new SLSC patrol season begins on Saturday.

The last 20 mins of the game saw Mullum hit the post twice and Byron scramble well to clear the ball off the line. On the other side of the field Fez pounced for Byron, stealing the ball from a defender and taking it wide of the keeper and calmly slotting the narrow angle to make it Byron 3–1.

Police can legally give a ‘reasonable direction’ to a person in a public place who they believe on reasonable grounds is supplying, or soliciting supply of, or purchasing prohibited drugs. The direction must be ‘reasonable in the circumstances for the purpose of stopping’ the supply or purchase. It is an offence to fail to comply with the direction without reasonable excuse. Police have some powers to search people and property, and seize articles such as drugs for evidence, but their powers are not unlimited. There are different rules for personal searches, and searches of houses or land.

Personal searches

A police officer above the rank of sergeant can request that a doctor examine a person in custody (if such an examination is relevant to the charge) without the person’s consent. Women should only be searched by a woman police officer. If no female constable is available, however, the police can request ‘any female’ to conduct the search under their direction.

Sniffer dogs Police can use a dog to assist with general drug detection without a warrant (Law Enforcement (Powers and Responsibilities) Act 2002, s 148), in relation to a person who is at, entering or leaving premises licensed for the consumption of liquor sold there (not including a restaurant or dining room); a public place being used for ‘a sporting event, concert or other artistic performance, dance party, parade or other entertainment’; and a train, bus or light rail vehicle, on a prescribed route, or a station, platform or stop. In other circumstances – for example, in a public street – police can only use drug-detection dogs to search people or vehicles with a warrant issued under the Law Enforcement (Powers and Responsibilities) Act 2002, section 149.

The police can search a person without arresting them under the Law Enforcement (Powers and Responsibilities) Act 2002, section 21. This section gives police the power to ‘stop, search and detain’ anyone who they ‘reasonably suspect’ might be in possession of drugs. Police can search a vehicle if they have a similar reasonable suspicion under the Law Enforcement (Powers and Responsibilities) Act 2002, section 36. The police have the right to search a person after an arrest (Law Enforcement (Powers Q Read more at and Responsibilities) Act 2002, www.legalanswers.sl.nsw.gov. section 23). au/guides/drugs

Byron Shire Buyers Agent Q&A by Hans Lovejoy

David Gordon

As perhaps the longest-running realtor in the Shire, David Gordon from Ray White Byron Bay has exceptional local knowledge with over 24 years’ experience and comes from a long lineage of realtors. ‘We are a family-based company who have been operating since 1939,’ says Ray White Byron Bay’s website. ‘We pride ourselves on our reputation for professionalism, integrity, expertise and most importantly, delivering successful outcomes for our clients. We have a strong commitment to providing the best possible results for our customers, whether buying, selling or managing an investment property. We achieve this through our focus on people and building meaningful relationships where we really listen to our customers’ needs and desires.’ The team of 19 is. principal David Gordon, sales associates Brett Connable, Lloyd Lawton, Michael Gudgeon, agent Kaye Wilkie, mortgage and finance Broker Julian Packshaw, sales secretary Gail Inkpen, permanent property manager Kerry Hilan, leasing consultant Charmaine Patterson, office manager Denise Milner, holiday property officers Madeline Sellen and Natasha Leonard, receptionists Amanda Brown and Nikki Carmody, sales associate Frances Hart, commercial assistant Rob Anning, holiday property manager Sarah Grant, sales support Sarah Oliver and marketing co-ordinator Tim Marsh. David is married with two children, who are both at Byron Bay Public School. I understand your company sponsors literacy programs at the local schools – is that correct? Yes we sponsor the Byron Bay Primary School Citizenship Award which was set up to encourage the student to display good citizen behaviour. Each month the teachers choose a student that has been a good citizen at school and we award them with a book voucher from Mary Ryan’s. We also give the school a book voucher and the winning student buys a book for themselves and one for the school and presents the book back to the school. What other community work are you involved with? I am very passionate about giving something back to the community,

and have previously run a university scholarship program. We are supporters of Byron United, Keep Byron Beautiful Campaign, Northern Rivers Community Foundation, Variety Club of Australia, Byron Bay Little Athletics, Rotary Club, Byron Bay Scouts, Byron Bay Junior Lifesaving, Malibu Club, Holiday Letting Organisation, Dragons Abreast, Byron Bay Board Riders, Byron Bay Rugby League Club, Byron Bay Golf Club, Byron Bay Junior Soccer Club, Byron Bay Women’s Bowling, Byron Bay Primary School, Byron Bay Pink Ladies, Ray White Scholarship Program, Byron Bay Primary School Citizen Program, East Timor Swim School…

I understand your hobbies include marathon running… My last marathon was on Sunday in Sydney! My goal is five marathons in five months and that was number three, so I’m almost there. I love surfing, stand-up paddle boarding, climbing mountains, I love challenging adventures and have climbed mountains in New Zealand, camped in a snow cave on a glacier for ten days, trekked to Everest Base Camp (south side), trekked Kala Pattar, done the Kokoda Track and last year went to Advanced Base Camp on Mt Everest (north side) in Tibet. Please tell us about your Mt Everest attempt Last year I joined an expedition with the goal of climbing to the north col on the northern flank of Mt Everest. This is what they call a training run for those that aspire to summit Everest one day. I have been to and on Mt Everest several times, from both the north and south sides, and North Col is the highest point you can get to without actually doing a summit bid. Basically you climb up with a summit team and stop at 6,500m and the summiteers continue on. I made it to Advanced Base Camp before getting ill and I had to return. We travelled in by car going through Tibet and over the Tibetan Plateau and then after our climbing we drove back down through the Himalayas, crossing the border into Nepal and down

to Kathmandu. I have done some other climbs and treks but I love the Himalayas. How you see the town in the future, and how it has changed? T h e g re ate s t change has b e en in t he new people in town. They are interesting, enthusiastic, vibrant people who respect the balance between lifestyle and business. I am concerned that if the council does not adopt the same attitude with balance – that is protecting the beautiful environment that we all love and enjoy yet allowing a steady flow of growth – then the town will suffer in the long term. We have seen that the stranglehold mentality of the extreme Greens creates affordability issues, lack of employment issues and resentment against council. I’m very pleased to see a more balanced group of Councillors emerging. My hope is that we can ‘plan not condemn growth’ for the future. It cannot be an all-ornothing stance on development. What other realtors were around when you started in the shire? When I started I was mentored by Margaret Robertson. Other realtors were Nick Towers, Greg Stebbing, John Mooney, Roger Buck and as I was 18 I looked up

to these guys and learnt a great deal from them. As perhaps the longest-running realtor, a good perspective to share would be the early history of realty in Byron Bay. I have been visiting Byron Bay since I was three years old, holidaying here every year. I moved here in 1985 and started work in our office, 27 years ago. We started as Byron Bay Real Estate, then R Gordon & Son and changed to Elders Real Estate. We are now Ray White Real Estate and Byron Bay Real Estate. I’m Byron Bay’s most experienced agent. I have also worked in every department in the office. So I was a letting clerk, property manager, salesperson and now sales manager. I have sold everything from a small vacant block of land to six 100acre farms at Broken Head, from brick and tile investment homes to mansions. Our office was opened in 1976 (36 years ago) and was the first serious real estate office in Byron Bay. I’m a fourth generation real estate agent.

Currently I am studying the Future Business Model (FBM) and being mentored through the program by one of Australasia’s best-known trainers Mark McLeod. The FBM is about introducing structures and processes into selling real estate that help achieve the premium price available for the seller, developing relationships with people and ensuring that they are provided with the most relevant of information at the time they ready to sell. There has been a paradigm shift in the way real estate agencies conduct themselves and it was introduced in the past two years. If agents continue to conduct themselves the way they did even five years ago they will soon perish. Today we have over 30 per cent market share in Byron Bay which means we sell one in every three homes. Q Next week The Echo will

profile another Byron Shire realtor.

We were rather surprised the think tank Australia21 should recommend the decriminalisation of marijuana and ecstasy – not that what is sold as ekky these days is usually MDMA. You can read more interesting information at the Australian Drug Law Reform foundation site http://adlrf.org.au/ and download the Australia21 report from there as well. In case you think this is a bunch of hippy-trippy lefties, check out the ‘Advocates of reform’ section as well. There’s probably as much chance of politicians taking any action along those lines as that of a snowball surviving in hell. While youth who like to party put themselves in jeopardy from the law and untested drugs, the bioentheogenists quietly groove along to the ‘autopoetic memes from the cosmic neo-cortex’ – see local site http://rakrazam.com/ as an example.

Any notion of universal sealevel-rise benchmarks has been thrown out in the latest round of O’Farrell government coastal ‘planning’. The joy is mostly for coastal landowners who will be allowed to ‘more readily place large sandbags as temporary coastal protection works’, according to www.environment.nsw.gov.au. In addition, ‘The works will be able to be placed at any time on public or private land – landowners will no longer need to wait until erosion is occurring or imminent’ for up to two years. So what right do beachgoers have on public land these days? Can you, for example, move a sandbag if it happens to be in the way of your pleasant perambulation? If erosion is not imminent, then the landowner has the opportunity to annex the beachfront, which will present the state government with a new area of conflict. Expect that local councils will end up copping the expenses associated with any paperwork.

One would expect a Shire rich in ‘intuitives’ to be interested in the ABC Science op ed ‘Emotional intelligence: fact or fad?’ by Dr Carolyn MacCann. She concludes that it exists, but it seems to Backlash, and to some of the commentators on the site, that it’s just a convenient buzzword for some types of behaviour grouped together. You can read the piece at http://bit.ly/NlN1EL and make up your own mind. Q Q Q Q

Fresh from picking up a prize for originality at a film festival in the USA, Sharon Shostak will screen her quirky dark comedy Tish Ho on Friday September 28 at the Drill Hall, Mullumbimby. You can choose from two screenings, 6pm or 8pm, and check out the trailer at http://bit.ly/UbNms0.

According to a study commissioned by the German government, the worldwide market for clean technology is worth two trillion or more euros a year and is on track to double in size by the mid 2020s. Before the coal and iron ore run out, wouldn’t it be wise for Australia to step up to the plate in clean-tech and follow Germany’s lead?

As Michael McDonald mentions in his article on page 15 this week, the informal vote was rampant in the local-government elections across the north coast. Tweed seemed to be the worst, with 14.64 per cent informal votes, followed by a couple of wards in Ballina (between 10 and 13), then Byron which registered 12.14 per cent, and Lismore at 8.73 as the lowest. Is this a sign of confusion among electors or a form of protest? We expect mostly the latter. Q Q Q Q

Don’t expect the new Byron council to be up to speed from day one – five out of the nine councillors are new to the game. It is likely you will be able to see them in action at the first ordinary meeting sched-
