Gabfest erupts over Byron’s boozy new years eve Hans Lovejoy

There’s no denying the yabber yabber emanating from all forms of media after Byron’s new year’s celebrations. While largely unhampered by violent behaviour, the night saw a marked increase in visitor numbers and residents were clearly unhappy with the subsequent rubbish left behind and the pressures it placed on the town’s already stretched amenities. Council staff said it was a ‘significant increase in tourist numbers,’ with around 15.5 tonnes of rubbish being removed from beaches and streets. And without a doubt, many businesses benefited in the town, in particular liquor outlets, accommodation and supermarkets. As the dust settles and the humbug ebbs away, the questions as to how to manage the town’s irresistible magnetism is needed now more than ever. One of the key issues to emerge is the problem of illegal street camping.

The issue, while exacerbated for NYE, appears to reflect the larger picture of tourism in a small town. Mayor Simon Richardson told Echonetdaily’s Sharon Shostak, ‘We have a situation where, in a town of around 10,000 people, it gets visited by 1.5 million every year, predominantly coming down one road. The real question is how do we manage these people and how can the residents get a real benefit? ‘We’ve traditionally chosen not to have highrises. When you have huge highrises you have an increase in rate-

able property, therefore you can use that money to offset infrastructure. So by deciding to be lowrise, we’re also low income.’ As for addressing the issue, Cr Richardson said that while the state government – through Destination NSW – spends ‘huge amounts of money marketing areas for visitors’, he would ‘like to see the state government match every marketing dollar with an infrastructure offset dollar.’ And he’s also calling for a Byron Bay progress association, which has been

met with cautious optimism by the town’s chamber of commerce, Byron United (BU). Cr Richardson told The Echo that if such a group were established, as it is in many other town centres, ‘it could include a wide range of community views and establish a vision for the Shire.’ BU president Paul Waters, however, told The Echo that he would prefer to see any committee specifically address tourism management, ‘Such as through the VIA Byron [a new tourism committee for the region].

Fine is cheaper than finding accommodation Byron Shire acting general manager Phil Warner said in a press release that the clean-up was ‘challenging’, with rangers working 21 hours each day from December 26 through until January 1. He says they issued almost 650 fines with over half of them relating to street camping. He said feedback from the rangers included that people had admitted that they saw the ‘no camping’ signs but still chose to camp in the areas. ‘The no-camping street signage is only a deterrent,’ Mr Warner said. ‘With a penalty fine of $110 it was considered by some to be cheaper than finding accommodation. ‘Rangers also woke up occupants of an additional 100 cars on new year’s day; however, the occupants were too intoxicated and could not be moved on.’

‘It would hopefully incorporate senior police, councillors, council staff and council rangers. The focus needs to be on what is actually achievable,’ he said. ‘Open forums can easily fall into talk fests.’ Mr Waters is also the lone voice in calling public outcries of tourist hordes as ‘exaggerated and too precious.’ ‘There is no evidence of the place being trashed,’ he said, referring to the rubbish being collected by Council and some residents the following day. ‘It’s a fair call to some extent, but the town hasn’t lost its innocence.’ And he unsurprisingly rejects the mayor’s suggetion that NYE could in future be wrapped by 9.30pm. ‘…I think finishing up at 9.30pm should be considered,’ Cr Richardson blogged on Council’s website. ‘Word will quickly get out that the Byron NYE theme park is no longer open for business and the extra visitors unable to be absorbed this year will diminish. ‘We need to ensure Council’s commitment to NYE is for a low-key, family-friendly, resident-focused celebration. The residents of Sunrise, Belongil, Suffolk and Byron deserve it, the responsible visitors deserve it and our town deserves it.’

Police report

Youth worker Deb Pearse says she is disgusted, disappointed and disillusioned by drunken behaviour in Byron Bay. Deb has been a part of the Byron Youth Service Street Cruise program for 12 years, which provides youth outreach on both Friday and Saturday nights. She says the need for the bus is growing steadily each year, but lack of funding means Street Cruise is down to just Fridays. And the problems are growing, she says. ‘This year it’s much more spread out. Last year the mayhem was contained pretty much in town. This year just about every street you go in there is rubbish, broken glass right up into the residential area.’ Deb understands that Byron is a tourist town but says we are driving away the tourists we need. ‘Families and people that respect the place don’t want to come here. They are horrified.’ As she works weekends, she can speak for what she sees. ‘What I see is the most gross consumption of alcohol. From my observation the really problematic group are mainly guys from late teens through their twenties. They are the ones that I am constantly asking to pick up their rubbish, to stop throwing bottles, to stop urinating in the street in front of me. This is what I have seen with my own eyes.’ Photo Eve Jeffery

With around 15,000 attendees, Byron Bay’s new year’s eve festivities saw 14 people arrested for mainly alcoholinduced public-order offences. Police said there were ‘a number’ of assaults overnight and into the early morning. One man was arrested over an attack with a glass bottle and another over an attempted theft but no major injuries were reported.

told The Echo it was a busy night, and while police didn’t have too much trouble, ‘there’s still of course issues with alcohol-related crime’. ‘Again our problem [was] alcohol. Again you [saw] people walk down the street, they’re either intoxicated or they’re carrying alcohol – and it’s a real issue for the police.’

Bed tax mooted In the wake of the NYE party that ratepayers inevitably have to pay for, local government minister and Ballina MP Don Page has revived the accommodation-tax proposal, often referred to as a bed tax. It seeks to pass on a levy taken from the accommodation industry to fund and maintain infrastructure. Mr Page told ABC North Coast Radio Thursday there was an opportunity for Byron to charge a bed tax but under current legislation it had to be

demonstrated the tax would directly benefit the tourism providers who levied the tax. Later in the week he told Fairfax Media that despite a bed tax levy going ‘against his government’s policy,’ the Local Government Act – which is currently under his review – ‘should be amended to allow local authorities such as Byron Shire to tax businesses specifically to improve roads, parking, public toilets, parks, boardwalks and rubbish collection services.’ But Mayor Richardson played down the effectiveness of a bed tax, claiming that as most visitors only come for the day, it would not be of much financial benefit. Mr Waters from BU also agreed but said if implemented, ‘it could form a part of a suite of ways of collecting money for infrastructure.’

During Schoolies he says he found around 150 of a specific brand in one cleanup. ‘As part of this campaign we hope to approach Council and these businesses, show them what we found on the beach and hopefully eradicate all these wristbands. There’s no point [to use wristbands] – stamps have exactly the same effect.’ He says he would like to see a shift away from plastic bags with education programs so people are aware of the impacts that people have on the marine environment. ‘We need to inspire people to become stewards of the ocean and that every single thing they do has an impact.’

While solutions are still being thrashed about, one local NGO (non-government organisation) is actively collecting the rubbish. Karl Goodsell, founder and director of Positive Change For Marine Life, told Echonetdaily’s Sharon Shostak that his team of volunteers started a campaign in May 2012 to look at the long-term trends of marine debris. ‘We’re using two beaches as Visitor type change report sites – Main Beach and Mr Waters also said that in Seven Mile Beach,’ he said. ‘It’s recent years the demographic a marine park and we have a of the visitor type had changed. high diversity of species here

‘The quality clients that were on the streets some years ago aren’t here now. It’s been replaced with a different culture.’ He said that his restaurant, The Balcony, now closes earlier despite a licence to trade until 2am. ‘The kind of people out there after midnight aren’t conducive to what we provide.’

Bangalow development sparks public meeting Staff reporters

A public meeting has been called for this Thursday from 6pm at the Bangalow RSL Hall to discuss a controversial fourstorey building for the town’s heritage-building area in Station Street. The Bangalow chamber of commerce has distanced itself from the development by Sydney developers Gordon Highlands Pty Ltd. Former Byron Shire councillor Jenny Coman claims the building for eight flats, three shops and 18 underground car parks is totally out of character with the Bangalow village, and ‘is in complete conflict with the guidelines drawn up for the development of Bangalow in its settlement strategy.’ She also says it would ‘possibly set a precedent for further such proposals’, and the proposed access to the development is the lane used by school children to get to school and

elsewhere. Additionally she claims there is not enough car parking provided. ‘They are seven short and have no suggestions as to what to do about it.’ But the town planner behind the project, Bangalow-based Paul Defina, has defended the development, point by point. ‘The proposed building is below the Council’s height limit,’ he told The Echo. He says from the Bangalow Settlement Strategy 2003, ‘Items

11, 13, 14 and 19 have been noted by the building designers and myself and incorporated into the proposal.’ ‘As to setting a precedent, there is no such thing. Each application is assessed and determined on its merits.’ As for rear lane access, Mr Defina played down the impact it would have on the neighbouring school and residents, saying the development, ‘will appeal to single people, in particular, the elderly. Those people may wish

to live “in-town” so they do not need to use a car.’ He also claims the building is not four storeys high, as stated by the objectors, but two storeys as seen from the street front. ‘As to the shortfall of car parking, the applicant offered to pay Council’s Section 94 Car Parking contributions for the retail component of the proposal to add to their already existing off-street parking fund that the Council has been collecting from other developers over the past 20 years to provide a purpose-built community car park in Bangalow. ‘The 18 onsite car parking spaces are for the future residents and shop owners. The provision of a Council-owned car park is eagerly awaited by the [Bangalow] Chamber of Commerce and can only be provided by developer cash contributions.’ The closing date for submissions on the development has been extended until January 31.

All’s well at being Shamanic Clean energy policy focus needed The Climate Institute has welcomed the final report from the Climate Change Authority’s Renewable Energy Target (RET) review and urged bipartisan support for the scheme to remain unchanged. â€˜Australia now generates enough renewable energy to power more than three million households,’ said Erwin Jackson, deputy CEO of The Climate Institute. ‘The Renewable Energy Target is helping clean up our electricity sector and sets Australia on the road to a zero emission

power sector in the coming decades. â€˜It has underpinned some $18 billion in investment in clean energy in Australia since 2001, and can encourage a further $18 billion in the years to 2020.’ The Climate Change Authority (CCA) has recommended that reviews of the scheme be reduced in frequency from two-year intervals to four years to help provide stability for investors. Mr Jackson added, ‘We urge both parties to maintain the large-scale renewable target in its current form.’Â

Paraglider winched after crash A paraglider pilot who crashlanded on the hillside beside Possum Shoot Rd was rescued by The Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter around 6pm on Thursday evening. Paramedics, police services and Brunswick Valley Rescue assisted with the mission.

Given the hillside crash site, the helicopter doctor and paramedic had to be winched down to retrieve the patient. He was stabilised with suspected spinal injuries and was subsequently winched into the helicopter and flown to Lismore in a stable condition.

Filmmaker Marcus Cloherty is calling on thespians and production crew interested in making a contemporary presentation of Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night. ‘I’m not changing the script,’ he told The Echo. ‘The scenes will be modern, the language will remain but with an Aussie accent.’ He says the feature film will entail a six-week shoot plus rehearsals and is casting late February or early March.

Which Way Festival comes to the YAC

Benefit changes hit most vulnerable

On Saturday January 12 the YAC Amphitheatre is set to come alive with with the sounds of 20 young hardcore and metal bands in the first festival of its kind, the Which Way Festival. It will feature many of the bands who have played at the YACROCKCAFE at the Byron Youth Activities Centre on Friday nights throughout 2012. The bands have all given their time free, to give young people in Byron something to do on Friday nights. Many of the more than 70 bands who played throughout 2012 have been local Byron Shire bands, but it has gained quite a reputation with young bands from Brisbane and the Gold Coast too. The Which Way Festival is the brainchild of James Heath, member of local young hard-

A large number of people will be much worse off following changes to Centrelink benefits which came into effect on January 1. The Australian Council of Social Service (ACOSS) and National Welfare Rights Network say changes to the Parenting Payment, Youth Allowance, Austudy and other benefits will have the greatest impact on people trying to survive on low incomes. ‘The changes impact upon more than 80,000 people,’ said ACOSS CEO Dr Cassandra Goldie. ‘This includes 60,000 single-parent families receiving Parenting Payment. Single parents will see a cut of between $60 and $110 per week. This will have a devastating impact on single-parent families and their children.’

Tallow Creek fish kill sparks blame game Luis Feliu

Fisheries authorities and local fishermen are at loggerheads over what killed thousands of estuarine fish in Tallow Creek, Byron Bay recently. Just after Christmas, locals noticed the fish kill at the mouth of the creek and further upstream involving estuarine species such as flathead, mullet, whiting as well as eels and crustaceans. A lack of oxygen in the water has been blamed for the kill, but

just how the sudden de-oxygenation of the water in the creek (known as an intermittently closing and opening coastal lagoon) happened is in dispute. Byron Bay Deep Sea Fishing Club secretary Dan Bode told The Echo that the level of deoxygenated water in the creek had become way too high due to the creek opening being ‘blocked’. Mr Bode said natural processes had allowed the mouth of the creek to be ‘fused’, blocking it up and allowing backed up water to deoxygenate, caus-

ing the fish kill. But Department of Primary Industries (DPI) director of fisheries compliance, Glenn Tritton, said a number of Sawtell residents used shovels to dredge a channel from the mouth of Bonville Creek to the ocean last year, which had been closed beforehand. ‘Many people wrongly believe that opening creeks and lagoons can improve water quality or enhance fish recruitment; however, this is not the case,’ Mr Tritton said.

‘Similar openings of lakes, lagoons and creeks in the past have resulted in severe environmental damage. ‘Opening closed creeks and lagoons to the ocean in the wrong way can lead to low dissolved oxygen levels, increased exposure, death of aquatic vegetation and large fish kills.’

Riot police move in on protesters at Glenugie Hans Lovejoy

Protecting non-renewable investments for corporations instead of the environment is clearly the agenda for the state government as riot police were brought in to protect coal-seam gas rigs against protesters in the picturesque area known Glenugie, south- east of Grafton. It came to a head Monday – Mullumbimby woman Laili Summers kept The Echo updated throughout the morning, saying some of the estimated 50 police had become physical with some 200 people after they moved too slowly from blocking Metgasco trucks. One protester reportedly suspended himself from a tripod at the entrance to the site and two attached themselves to devices

in the ground barring access to the site; one was on a tree platform and the other hung from a suspended aerial wire. While mainstream media, the government and mining companies attempt to discredit protesters as ‘rent-a-crowd jobless

Greenies,’ Laili says it is clearly not the case with Glenugie. ‘There’s a broad cross-section of the community, young and old,’ Laili says, who is gainfully employed. ‘The government may have given Metgasco a licence to drill but they cer-

tainly don’t have the approval from the local community. ‘Even some of the police here told us they are anti-CSG!’ This and the other two projects are a break-or-make case for Metgasco in the region; they have suffered from a sharp drop in their share price, and their public image has been damaged by attempts to set up an industry in areas which are clearly inappropriate. Support from the government is no doubt a welcome relief to the beleaguered corporation. It appears impossible to conduct a mining business without their help, be that from police force or the generous subsidies and incentives. As of going to press 12 arrests have been made while other protesters keep a watch on drilling truck movements at Metgasco’s office in Casino.

Fracktual or fractitious? Pro CSG movie opens Eating disorders A pro-CSG movie – FrackNation – is set to be released in the US on January 22 after reaching its goal of $150,000 on crowd sourcing website www. kickstarter.com. US filmmakers Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney claim Josh Fox’s Gasland skews the truth behind the controversial industry. Specifically, they make the point that aquifers are known to contain methane naturally.

‘It turns out people have been lighting their water for centuries in America,’ Mr McAleer says on the movie’s trailer. He goes on to challenge Mr Fox at a Q&A Gasland screening about known methane levels in water tables and a specific household incident. He asks why a 1976 report said there was ‘troublesome amounts of methane’ contained in the near aquifier yet wasn’t part of his documentary. The ‘gotcha moment’ is refut-

ed by Mr Fox with, ‘The point is, the citizens reported that they could not light the fire [in the water] before the drilling.’ The YouTube clip is entitled Gasland director hides full facts. The US filmmakers wanted to give voice to ‘those who were denied the right to develop resources on their land,’ and say the debate is not fair and balanced, particularly by the media.

a few conservatives take that view as well; just look at the Tea Party in the United States. But most rational people would agree that a genuinely mature democracy imposes duties and obligations as well as rights, and that compulsory voting is among them. If people have to vote, at least they have to take an occasional interest in choosing a government, and therefore

the people in America to vote. Now in Australia I wouldn’t be surprised if it ended up with you know 30 or 40 per cent of the people turning up to vote and I don’t know whether that would be a good outcome. ‘The next thing is you’d have a rise of the capacity of parties on the far right, all of a sudden you know, you’d have a White Australia policy and things like that coming back into the fore

If not, they risk surrendering it to the fanatical and the unscrupulous. This does not quite mean, as Julia Gillard has warned, that voluntary voting would deliver us to cashed-up interest groups but it does mean that they would gain even more advantage than they already have. To the surprise of many the case was put most eloquently by the Nationals’ Barnaby Joyce, frequently dismissed as an eccentric by both colleagues and opponents, but in this case lauded by every serious politician from John Faulkner to Malcolm Turnbull. It is worth quoting him at some length, so here goes: ‘Well, I have to look through the eyes of my own job as a senator. I think compulsory voting in Australia is important. I mean let’s have a reality pill here. If voting wasn’t compulsory a lot of people just wouldn’t bother voting. At times, they can only get half

pulsory so don’t say anything too perverse. ‘Now I don’t particularly want to change away from that system but I’d have to acknowledge that if we do change away from that system it is more likely the conservative side that will be the beneficiary of it as well as the Greens.’ I couldn’t have put it better myself. And I can attest from personal experience working in the 1963 English general election that while the Tories took taxis to the polling booths on a wet Saturday, Labor had to rely on party workers providing lifts to get the vote out. That four per cent margin may have been diminished, but there is no doubting where the advantage lies. But that, of course, is why some of the heavies in the Liberal Party, led by Eric Abetz and the still-influential Nick Minchin, are champing at the bit. It is most unlikely to happen, at least in the federal sphere; the backlash would be too great. But it is worth noting that all it would take is in an act of parliament; unlike actual constitutional change (abolition of the states, for instance) a referendum would not be necessary. And in Queensland, there is absolutely nothing to stop Campbell Newman going it alone. His state has already abolished that other tiresome impediment to totalitarian rule, the upper house. So maybe Swan is on the right track. One hillbilly dictator may be safely in his grave, but his avatar is back with us. Queenslanders should reach for the garlic, the silver bullets, the wooden stake. But above all, just keep voting. While you still can.

and on the far left we’ll have a carbon tax on breathing and we’ll have people saying that you, know, that basically all development is evil. ‘Both these sides would proliferate because people who are motivated in that way are motivated enough to turn up but the vast majority in the middle would be worried about getting the kids to their cricket or doing the shopping or have other things to do around the yard and they probably wouldn’t turn up to vote… ‘What I like about the Australian democracy is that when you vote you have to make sure you don’t startle the troops. If you startle the troops you will not get voted in. ‘In America you have startle them quite a bit to get them out to vote. You have to change your message around completely.

Fireworks in paradise: NYE and beyond On January 1, 1993, Byron Bay was on the front pages of international newspapers for ‘riots’ on NYE. The safe management of NYE was then undertaken by a community safety committee and for many years I worked alongside Annie and Rory O’Halloran. When I was elected to Council in 1999 I became chair of the committee and the local Lions were also involved. After 1999, there was a concerted effort to scale back events as Byron had become so popular. At this time of year the towns is at capacity, so attracting more people into the town doesn’t make sense. The focus was safety and for years the town was shut down with barricades and car stickers for locals so as not to present an ‘attractor’. The Cornells used to provide the fireworks but stopped due to the environmental issues. Then a plan for low-key family and local-friendly focus was put in place. The clubs and pubs have ticketed events, the cafes and restaurants are open, but the streets, park and beach need to be safe, therefore the alcohol prohibition rules were put in place. It’s not just about NYE; the media that goes out about the town has an effect on the town’s overall identity. Byron needs to attract a broad range of visitors and alcohol-fuelled antisocial behaviour do not reflect well on Byron’s brand. Let’s look back and note that community safety is the priority and midnight fireworks attract more

Blisstas? You were sadly missed at Bangalow on Christmas Eve and boy, did Byron need you guys on NY Eve. Please come back next year and share your fantastic vibe at these events. As lovely as the evening was at Bangalow thanks to the great street performers entertaining us all, we really did need the Blisstas to get the whole group united. As for the lack of colour in Byron on NY Eve, well, what a lost opportunity to showcase our beautiful town. The Bundjalung guys did a great job but way too little was on offer to the keep families interested. I wonder how much money was donated by the alcohol outlets (who must have made a fortune!) to provide incentives for street performers, drummers, buskers to entertain us. A couple of tacky fairground rides does not do credit to our town. Thank goodness for the full moon and gorgeous weather.

A post-industrial world

Eco housing in the beginnings of the post-industrial world has as its defining feature a comparative large number of people who live within an eco house. There has never been an affordable housing crisis, only a crisis of sociability. At a material, and therefore necessarily, ecological level, at a minimum these houses in the southern hemisphere subtropics, have jalousies (doored openings) on the lower south (cooler) wall.

ance and provide for overflow camping. Community groups have been well aware, not only of these illegal encroachments, but also of the ‘privatisation’ of the foreshores. It is only in The Terrace caravan park that that now continues. In successive Plans of Management (POM) or ‘development plans’ Council has always supported the community’s reasoned boundaries. The licensing resolution of August 9 directly reflected that, nothing more or less. Cr Dey has, deliberately or otherwise, completely dismissed this and now by his own admission has, since been elected to Council, taken a different position. That position completely contradicts his mandate as representing the community’s interest. At the Ferry Reserve Caravan Park, park management had to ‘close’ Riverside Crescent in order to bring all adjoining sites into compliance. While it was designated a public road, the sites did not comply with setback requirements. Closing the public road solved that problem. There is nothing in the Crown Lands Act that would have prohibited the inclusion of a public road in a POM for the caravan park, lending credence that closing it was for this compliance reason. It now means that there

The current tendency to wear more clothing into the water is a backwardness born in fear of the sun. Those who have been termed ‘savages’ knew to honour the sun. The amount of clothing currently worn into the water is a return to the 1920s, never mind the snowballing of an environment crisis. The dance of life can be learnt of moving from sun to shade in balance.

turn to pitches of greater than 45 degrees in anticipation of being thatched when the mills of industry grind to a complete stop. Relatively flat roofs are not thatchable. The uneconomic but ecologically sustainable use of housing thatching requires the growing of the best thatch for this area by any plant throughout the world. There are two tests for its local legitimacy: one, that it grows well and is therefore adapted to this area, even to the extent of being weed-like, and two that it demonstrate low deteriorability on roofs in this climate.

Letters/Nonsense continued from page 12

is no ‘public road’ to the boat ramp and Cr Dey ‘yields up’ the bitumen non-road to park management. The long-held vision by park management is for boom gates across this former road so as to keep the boat ramp for the exclusive use of park patrons. There is no other access to the boat ramp other than along this former road. The access problem could be overcome with the former road labelled as a ‘transition zone’ for pedestrians and vehicles. The large area of approximately 12,075sqm to the east of the caravan park is the very land onto which community groups have, since before 2000, encouraged the expansion of the caravan park. Cr Dey ignored this position and dismissed the fact that a concept POM has been on exhibition that included such an expansion. And there is a major problem with the recreational space at Ferry Caravan Park. Legislation requires ten per cent of the area of a caravan park to be given over to recreational use. The existing designated space within the Ferry Caravan Park continues to be used for car parking. Thus it fails to meet its intended use and pressure is put onto the foreshore. Furthermore, despite the efforts of park management, foreshore patrons continue to extend their sites with camping paraphernalia onto the pub-

lic walkway. Added to this, any eastward expansion of the caravan park will require more recreational space. It is imperative that public foreshore land be kept outside those boundaries as a precaution against the long-term commercial leasing of the caravan parks, as optioned in a confidential report September 2005 for the Department of Lands. In The Terrace caravan park, natural attrition since 2000 has meant that only 16 moveable dwellings are now sited on the foreshore. The deterioration of the foreshore is self-evident and remediation is urgently needed. It is unlikely that any remediation works could begin unless the foreshore is vacated. In defiance, Cr Dey’s initial and pending rescission motion continues to provide for the privatisation of the foreshore as opposed to addressing the immediate risk problems these residents are facing with a collapsing riverbank and the public’s desire for a walkway along the foreshores of the Brunswick River. It defies reason as to why Cr Dey, in full knowledge of the traffic and parking mayhem created by North Coast Holiday Parks along the Terrace Road, would reduce the required width to address the community’s frustrations and close off options as to what could be done.

Life in the vegetable lane, blinded by thirst What wondrous life is this I lead! Ripe apples drop about my head; The luscious clusters of the vine Upon my mouth do crush their wine; The nectarine and curious peach Into my hands themselves do reach; Stumbling on melons as I pass, Insnared with flowers, I fall on grass. – The Garden, by Andrew Marvell (1621–1678) Michael McDonald

It would be fair to say that my contribution to the welfare of our vegetable garden is minimal. It’s generally limited to helping turn the hot compost, barrowing loads of authentically organic muck and posting photos of the month’s harvest on Facebook. You could say I can’t work in the hot climate or a man of my advanced years deserves a break, but I just put it down to laziness. If it’s a choice between digging out indestructible nut grass one nut at a time under a 30o sun or sitting on the couch with a book about the good life, it’s a safe bet I’ll choose the latter. Nevertheless the garden thrives because my partner has more energy than is strictly necessary and gives in to her addiction to efficiency. Thus I reap the benefits without the effort. Unfair, you say? I agree totally, but wouldn’t want to thwart her selfless desire to assist the unworthy. It must be said I am a dab hand at slicing and dicing said vegetables and washing up the aftermath of their consumption. The summer months are the cruellest for the garden and the gardener. The heat is oppressive. The weeds thrive. The Patricia Warren insects attack, their predations offset by Brunswick Heads the chickens and the birds – what joy to

The erotic heritage vegetable collection: beetroot, spring onion, radish, and on top, the tromboncino, described by the Diggers Club (www.diggers.com.au/) as ‘the world’s rudest vegetable’. It was all filth in our garden last December.

watch silvereyes in the poinciana, picking green caterpillars from the leaves, or a hen hunting down a grasshopper among the capsicum. Things grow, get picked and are eaten. Green grapes drape the chookhouse and arch across the pathway. Red peppers get gathered in their dozens – apart from the ones the iron-gutted currawongs steal – and frozen in order to contribute spice to meals throughout the year. Cucumbers pop into existence every few minutes. Thai basil, oregano, marjoram, rosemary and mint perfume the air. Figs ripen and swell. The corn, as the show tune notes, is as high as an elephant’s eye. Lemons and limes are preserved in salt and eventually become pickle, perfect on

a sandwich with cheese and rocket. This month the tromboncino provides the major source of bulk in stirfries, succeeding where zucchini would succumb to subtropical mould. Yes, there are failures. The avocado tree’s roots hit the clay barrier and give up hope. Fruit-spotting bugs devastate pecan and macca crops. But overall it’s a frigging mind-blowing explosion of activity from the subatomic level upwards, bristling with fecundity, heedless of the uncertainty of survival. Describing someone as being in a ‘vegetative’ state when they’re comatose is a complete misnomer. It is certainly not the state I’m in on the couch, recovering from all the frantic vegetable action.

Over the Moon About Over the Sun FOLK DARLINGS TIN PAN ORANGE RETURN TO PLAY THE MULLUM CIVIC HALL AFTER A BUSY SUMMER OF TOURING. THEY HAVE JUST RETURNED FROM THE FALLS FESTIVAL, WERE HITS OF THE MULLUM MUSIC FESTIVAL IN NOVEMBER AND EARLIER LAST YEAR EMILY’S VOCAL FOR THE ROADSAFETY CAMPAIGN WENT VIRAL WITH OVER 35 MILLION VIEWS! I suppose I have to ask it: will Emily be singing Dumb Ways To Die ? How could anyone expect a train-safety ad to become viral – or was that the intention? Well I guess everyone wants their thing to go viral. But I certainly never expected it from Dumb Ways to Die. Who knew? I must say that I am baffled equally by the ways of the internet and the human condition. Was your new album Over the Sun more challenging album to write, as you were touring Canada most of the time? The writing of this album was spread over a two-year period. Half of it I wrote when I was seven months pregnant and the other half when we were touring through Canada with our little son in tow, and the months on either side of the tour. It’s been a wild ride. I guess when big things happen it can get creative juices flowing. Sometimes our caravan would be parked beside a frozen lake in the Rockies, on our way to the next town, and I would have to take our baby out for a walk so he wouldn’t wake up the rest of the band and we would find a truck stop that sold coffee and a lyric would come to me. My songwriting is always an unexpected process. I always wish I was more methodical. Coffee helps. What made you want to do a version of Round the Twist theme song? (It was my eldest daughter’s – now 17 – favourite TV show.) Was there some nostalgia involved? We loved the happy nostalgia that permeated the room every time we played it live. We recorded it without the intention of putting on the record but when we listened back it just seemed to belong. Do you think at the beginning you could have envisaged what you were going to sound like today? I guess its a bit like looking at a baby’s face and trying to guess how they’ll look as an adult? Well, our sound has certainly developed. We have become better songwriters (thankfully) and we have become more adventurous in our production. The five of us that made this last record and now do the live thing together is the most exciting lineup I’ve ever played with. I heart my band!

While looking back retrospectively, tell me the songs that you are proudest of, the ones that you feel have stood the test of time for you as a band? What are the songs you keep going back to? Bottle of Whiskey – I wrote this about a Croatian gypsy whose mother died in childbirth and whose father gave him away for a bottle of whiskey. He told me his story after having known him for five minutes. Most people think it’s an old cover and I take that as a compliment. Song for Frida Kahlo – People often request this one. I love playing it too. I love the bvs. Saudades – the ultimate heartbreak song‌ gotta have a couple! Lovely – makes folk dance and is the antidote to the heartbreak songs. There is something a little bit down the rabbit hole or storybook about Tin Pan Orange – sonically fantastical – is that something that you are conscious of as a band? Thank you. Kind of you to say. I don’t think that sound and vibe is too manufactured. I think it has come quite naturally. We’re just folk singers with a good imagination. How has having a baby changed the way you make music? Is it harder to tour? Record? Write? Rehearse? We have hardly slowed down at all! I

mean it’s pretty mad but somehow having a little baby and touring are quite compatible. There is a lot of dead time in touring. Waiting time. Waiting for a plane, or for soundcheck or for the show. Having a baby fills in the gaps. He is surrounded by the band and crew and music. It enriches us all! I do find it harder to write but I take my little opportunities when they come. It’s a very musical family, with you and Emily as brother and sister, your brother-in-law Harry Angus. Maybe the baby will pick up an instrument as well – do you think there’s any chance of becoming the indie version of the Chambers family?! That’s the plan! How was the Falls Festival? We had a great show and watching Beach House and The Flaming Lips was delightful! What should we expect for your Mullumbimby show? All the magic that my band can muster. We’ll give you everything we’ve got! Tickets for TINPAN ORANGE live at the Mullum Civic Hall on Sunday are available online at www. mullummusic.com or calling Mullum Music on 6684 6195. Doors open 7.30 – show 8pm. Special guest support – Loren Kate. www.vitamin.net.au. www.mullummusic.com

So should we tax the tourist? Bed Tax? Park and Ride for day-trippers? E-toll at Byron’s entrance for all visitors? This is clearly where the work has to be done, and it has to be lobbied locally through community consultation (that’s business and non-business alike) and pushed at state level. But before we become disempowered by the sheer enormity of how we manage to collect the money, consider this: what if every visitor paid $2? That would be well over $3.5 million annually. So why wait for legislation? Let’s introduce a voluntary program, instigated by all those businesses who benefit from the tourism industry, something in line with the carbon-offset contribution you can choose to pay when booking a flight. It’s the Byron Bay Community Infrasturucture Offset Contribution. I don’t think there’s a tourist on the street who would be resentful giving to that. We could even start by heritage listing hippies and have them with buckets in the street competing with the koalas. It’s time tourism operators and community members worked together in a more collegial and egalitarian fashion to create a vision of what kind of town we are going to create. That’s the first step towards a happy and more harmonious community. Because let’s face it, Byron isn’t just a destination, it’s home. The Echo will be holding a Public Forum on the Vision for Byron and the challenges of infrastructure deficit in the very near future. Stay tuned for more details in coming weeks.

Singer, songwriter, and incredibly captivating performer, Sharon Van Etten is nothing short of indie rock royalty. Produced by The National’s Bryce Dessner, her newest album, Tramp, features collaborators Zach Condon of Beirut, Julianna Barwick and Wye Oak’s Jenn Wasner.

Infrastructure doesn’t happen without money. In the case of mining it’s simple – one contractor – one large deposit. In the case of tourism it’s challenging – a multiplicity of operators – so how does one collect levys from all the beneficiaries of the industry? And in such a diverse industry how could you make it equitable? It’s a headache to even contemplate how one would collect cash contributions from cafes, restaurants, accommodation, pubs, buskers…

O

open-cut mine, blowing dollars in one direction and dust in another. So let’s accept that tourism is here to stay, that Byron presents the entire region with a remarkable opportunity. And while I’m on this let me address the Byron parochialism that sees itself separate and disconnected from places like Lismore or Casino, or Mullumbimby, Bangalow, Billinudgel, Clunes or Eltham. Byron has always been a locals’ beach, and those locals have come from country towns and farmlands in a radius over 100 kilometres. While some don’t ‘live’ in the shire it would be remiss not to take into consideration that they too are part of the local beach community of Byron Bay.

SAPPHIRES IN FEDERAL DAN HANNAFORD AT THE RAILS ON MONDAY FLOYD VINCENT & THE CHILDBRIDES AT THE BEACH HOTEL ON FRIDAY Reassembling The Dreamlanders for one night only, Jack Ladder heads north for the first time in a long time – having spent the second half of 2012 writing brand-new material, touring through America and showcasing on the CMJ Festival. One-man chamber-pop orchestra Wintercoats brings his solo symphony to the A&I Hall for the first time. The project of Melbourne’s James Wallace, writes Inpress of his gorgeous sound – ‘loop-driven contours and vocal-less passages of soundtrack-y beauty neatly encapsulate what manages to sound like an entire universe’. Performing from their newly released album, Bored Nothing will officially open proceedings. A Melbourne four-piece who mix and match shoegaze and sludge-metal, loner folk and riot girl. A celebration of indie-rock in exceptional surrounds, tickets for Spunk Tones are at Barebones Art Space (44 Byron Street Bangalow), All Music & Vision (Ballina, Lismore) and Oztix.com.au.

WHEN YESHE MEANS YES Multi-instrumentalist, composer, performer Yeshe returns to Byron after months on the road, to present his original, eclectic, world music songs and grooves for the hot summer crowd. With confirmed guests violinist extraordinaire Cye Wood, singer Parissa Bouass (Hottentots), and more surprise guests to come, it will be a night to remember with ‘the Eminem of world music’. A childhood spent learning African instruments and songs from neighbouring African immigrants in his German home town, to his gypsy adult life performing in Europe, Japan with study journeys to Africa in between helped create his truly global outlook on life and music. With master musicians he learned the ‘mbira’ (thumb piano), and the n’goniba, a small guitar ancestor from West Africa, and djembe (West African hand drum). Over the years Yeshe’s performed with numerous artists while honing his own unique sound. His latest CD

Roots and Wings (Vitamin Records) garnered rave reviews when it came out in 2011. A mix of original, classic, and traditional music, Yeshe’s established himself as a leader in genre-bending global fusion. The opening song, Peace of Mind, won the Billboard World Song Contest that year. In 2012 he toured to 55 Australian venues with Mohan Veena master and frequent collaborator Harry Manx (Canada), and open for Xavier Rudd on his Australian and USA tours. Thursday, Buddha Bar, Byron Bay Brewery, 8pm. Tickets: $20 at the door or phone bookings 6685 5833.

THE VERY ARTY PARTY It’s a summer run along the coast for party band Floyd Vincent and the Childbrides as they enter their 25th windswept year. Floyd started the band in 1988 with the first gig being the Kardomah cafe in Kings Cross. In 1989 he won the JJJ/Sony-sponsored Australian music video award for best music video and now almost 25 years down the act has toured the world with several hundred shows per year for many years. After a few years with the band on the back burner while Floyd and his partner had two young kids to look after he and the Childbrides are back with a swag of new tunes and plans for recording this year. Friday at the Beach Hotel.

SUN CITY IN BYRON Sun City are a fittingly named electro-pop duo hailing from Perth who give the nod to the likes of m83 and Passion Pit, the outfit blend classic 80s analog synth hooks with big basslines and dynamic vocals. Their sophomore EP Set Alight is testament to their penchant for sunny electro-pop and continue to prove the twosome as a west-coast force to be reckoned with. Saturday at The Beach Hotel.

BOOK REVIEWS The Fault In Our Stars John Green Review by Erin Mitchell Hazel Lancaster, diagnosed with thyroid cancer at 13, is the protagonist of the novel. She walks with an oxygen tank, called ‘Phillip’, as she doesn’t want to be seen as the cancerous girl in an elevator, or in a wheelchair. Hazel is not naive. She understands her disease and is ever conscious of her imminent de ath. She wants to keep the impact and inevitable damage of her disease to a minimum. Weekly, Hazel is forced to attend cancer support group by her frightened loving mum. One week, out of the blue, Augustus Waters shows up at the group. He says he only came in support of another friend but by the looks of his limp, he has a plastic leg – a result of a previous bone cancer. Instantly drawn together by their common history and diverse outlook on life, Augustus and Hazel spend days together discussing the world and its meaning. Mostly, they ask whether it is better to live your life to the fullest or to lower the negative impact on those you love. For me, the strongest part of the novel is the characterisation. These are people who you come to love, not out

of sympathy, but because they are so damned likeable.

Zoe Ferraris Review by John Mitchell A beautifully written and culturally sensitive work reminiscent of le Carré’s early work. While the story centres on a mystery, it offers so much more, both in its characterisations and its presentation of the world of sexual politics in Saudi Arabia. At the heart of Kingdom of Strangers are the themes of decency, respect and fairness. A liberal-minded detective, more concerned about solving crime than attending to the gender prescriptions held by the more conservative elements within the police force, joins forces with a bright young pathologist who is desperate to move into the homicide branch despite the many obstacles placed in her way. Solving the crime is complicated, and even undermined, by the personal stories of each of the protagonists. Zoe Ferraris transports into the heart of Saudi Arabia not unlike the manner in which Khaled Hosseini takes us into Afghanistan in The Kite Runner. The reader is confronted with a world where hiding and subtefuge are part of life, and everyone is hiding something. This is a compelling book.

Kingdom Of Strangers

Review by John Mitchell Disturbing, agitating and captivating, Chloe Hooper’s eagerly awaited new novel is not an easy ride. Her previous book Tall Man presented a deeply moving account of Cameron Doomadgee’s death in a Palm Island police cell and was described by Peter Carey as simply the finest Australian thriller written. So it was with great excitement that I opened The Engagement. I could not have been more taken aback! It is difficult to like much about the self-indulgent and rather pathetic protagonist, Liese (or ‘whatever her name is’). Her empty world is limping into nowhere when she shares a surprise passionate encounter with a real-estate client, Alexander Colquhoun. His offer to pay for the cleaning of the bedspread is taken as an offer to pay for the sex and therein begins a relationship of misunderstanding and mistrust. Hooper pushes us so convincingly into that world that the

<echowebsection=Entertainment>

reader cannot help feeling destabilised, frightened, angry and resentful. What a ride! Never sure of what constitutes solid ground – what is up and what is down. Never sure who to trust. Never sure if I liked either person enough to care... If your pushbike is as wobbly and unreliable as mine, have a look at The Engagement.

Ruby Redfort Lauren Child Book Review by Myah Passmore, Currumbin, aged 11 years 9 months. Ruby Redfort is a thirteen-year-old kid, who is brave, funny and extremely intelligent. The reasons I enjoy the Ruby Redfort books is because she isn’t your everyday, average girl, she’s unbelievably smart, completely unpredictable, extremely cool and a codecracking genius! The Ruby Redfort books are packed with action, mysteries and answers. So if I were you, buster, I’d get a hold of a Redfort book really quickly. Yeah, I’m looking at you!

What The Raven Saw Samantha-Ellen Bound What the Raven Saw is about a raven that finds

his spot on the church roof every day to watch the funerals take place because he enjoys watching the bodies shuffling about. The beady-eyed raven always seems to get distracted by a weather hen that he believes always follows him. His other ‘friend’, you could say, a pigeon, is a bit annoying at times, but the pigeon does consider them as friends. The old raven doesn’t like being disturbed while the mass is on because its the one time where he doesn’t hate humans; he likes the song that the priest and the old ladies with the fancy hats sing: I’ll fly away, O glory, I’ll fly away, in the morning When I die, Hallelujah by and by, I’ll fly away. But after the song he remembers how pointless and ridiculous the song is because it’s sung by humans who have arms not wings, so how could they fly, he thinks. What the Raven Saw is an interesting book but at times can get a little bit hard to understand and can turn you off from what’s happening in the story. The book is a great read, though. I personally enjoyed most of the book. I would recommend this book to boys and girls, aged 11+ who are interested in something a bit different, including animals with a wide imagination, an extraordinary churchyard and a little bit of humour!

Late-week new moon and Venus joining Sun, Mercury and Pluto in ambitious, practical Capricorn kicks the New Year into gear with firm, determined purpose…

E ARIES: Aries are always at their best starting over, so take every advantage of this week’s organised, business-like vibes to get solid plans in place for the year ahead – all of which will be best achieved through teamwork, cooperation and being part of a group effort. F TAURUS: With planetary ruler Venus in your material sector, money tops this week’s agenda. But she’s in your personal house of wanderlust too, so greener pastures are also calling Tauran paws and jaws. Satisfy both urges by traveling into the future, laying down long-range plans for this year. G GEMINI: With Venus in show-me-the-money Capricorn, finances make their presence felt in relationships. But when you’re crunching numbers, watch what you share and what you keep to yourself. And as inimitable Gemini Patch Adams advises, if you focus on the problem you can’t see the solution. H CANCER: This week’s energy is about manifesting dreams, Crabsters, so take a long, hard, unsentimental look at your talents and abilities and choose the best way to make use of them this year – by doing what you really love, not just shrinking your thinking to what’s economically possible.

EVANS HEAD RSL STANDS UP After appearing for the first time at Evans Head in the middle of the wildest storm the area had seen in decades, Mandy Nolan is back with a brand-new comedy show. ‘Last show was unbelievable. We were the only place with power in the region. Houses were having their roofs blown off, trees were being snapped in half, but the good people of Woodburn/Evans Head still came out for a laugh. These are my kind of folk!’ This time Nolan MCs with headline comic Greg Sullivan taking centre GREG SULLIVAN WITH MANDY stage. NOLAN AT EVANS HEAD RSL ON WEDNESDAY Greg Sullivan is one of the most experienced and accomplished standup comics and entertainment personalities around. His material is topical, thought-provoking, self-deprecating and very funny. His comedic insights have been noted by the greats with American Rich Hall using him as a writer from time to time. Sully has been invited to the world-famous Improv Comedy Club in Los Angeles, performed at major festivals such as the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and the Sydney Comedy Festival Gala, and has appeared in a variety of roles on television shows such as Good News Week, Home Delivered Humour, O’Loughlin on Saturday Night, The Today Show and A Current Affair.

I LEO: Things are powering along of their own accord right now, so no need to push them. This week’s for maintenance, majesties – scheduling health checks and attending to whatever needs fixing, replacing or readjusting. Taking the credit card for a stroll? Wait till next week, which is even cheaper. J VIRGO: Capricorn time’s ideal for networking and connecting, something this week’s planetary placements in your house of entertainment render a fairly delightful exercise. Virgo-friendly vibes suggest you’ll be most successful as your naughtiest, sauciest self while still managing to get heaps achieved and dealt with. K LIBRA: If you’re enthused but bemused about this year’s direction, check out Kirk Nugent’s Answer The Call on YouTube. Librans can bring out the best in others, and this week any group you’re involved with will benefit from your positive input and your bubby effect on energetic heaviness... L SCORPIO: As thrilling possibilities sing their siren song, this week issues a duo of new year directives: 1) Don’t look back. Right now the past can’t help you. And 2) Keep moving beyond what you already know. The answers you’re looking for are in unfamiliar territory.

LISMORE ART GALLERY Night Visions is an exhibition that features works by contemporary Australian artists exploring various aspects of the night in an Australian landscape. It negotiates country from parts of the Northern Territory to Melbourne and back up to the Torres Strait. The night is a vast and universal theme. As the late artist, Gulumbu Yunupingu, said so poetically: the stars show us that we are all the same underneath. We can all look at these stars whichever sky we are looking at. Free people share the broad and beautiful canopy of the night sky. Night Visions brings together an esteemed list of artists, a number of whom, most notably Jon Cattapan, Mark Kimber, Andrew Browne and Trent Parke, have explored the theme of night over consecutive series. The exhibition also pays heed to the rich references to the night sky in traditional indigenous cultures. www.lismoregallery.org. Ph: 6622 2209

OCEAN SHORES GALLERY Looming Up is a Fibre Art Exhibition. There will be wearable arts, weaving

kits for sale and talks throughout the duration of exhibition, from the 10th January to 1st February. Due to the Educational Year of the Snake the workshop project offers the production of a glowing-woven snakescarf. Kids from 7 to 12 years old are half price. Materials are free.

landscapes to real landscapes as close to home as Broken Head and as far away as Europe and Nepal. Each exhibition offers a different vision of landscape, light, culture, time and our relationship to place. Working in linocuts and monoprinting, Colleen DaRosa’s exhibition ‘A Geography of Light’ is in response to time spent in Scandinavia, London and Berlin in 2012

Following a long tradition of artists responding to the dramatic difference in the intensity of light from the sun across the globe, Colleen’s work investigates the drama of the difference between the brilliant Australian light with harsh shadows and contract to (for example) the soft, still, gentle Nordic lights. Her works are flowing and fluid with an earthly

is in response to a recent trip to Nepal. In her exhibition of paintings and weavings we see cultural and subjective responses to being at home and being far away from home.

Faye Maxwell’s ‘Bodyscapes’ is a rough, raw and dynamic collection of mixed media on paper. Some works are layered, some are simply a few shapes and forms, but all have an immediacy and energy that compels us to imagine the artist at work with intensity and passion. ‘Broken Headlands’ is the work of two artists – Rick Molloy and Maryanne Shea – who have been visiting the Broken Head Nature Reserve for the last 2 years. Inspired by the natural wild beauty of jagged, rocky headlands and sheltered white beaches, the artists have produced ‘plein air’ drawings from which they completed the exhibition of paintings and drawings. ‘Return to Girraween’ by Karyn Fendley are new paintings of the Granite Belt region. The artist’s bold and graphic style captures a sense of this place that highlight the strong sculptural form of rocks; lyrical, linear tree branches reaching and twisting, all softened by textural grasses and dappled flowers.

FOTOGRAPHY FOR SMALL OCCASIONS The Tree Faerie has been a busy little sprite over the festive season shooting family portraits, the view from a Tiger Moth, surfers, a new puppy and plenty of Christmassy things. She has also been pointing her camera at all sorts interesting people as she snapshots for her Humans Of Byron Shire Facebook page. Ready to fly ahead into the new year, she has her camera poised with a mission to specialise in portraiture and dance and movement photography in 2013 with a few special projects in the wings as well as some newborns who are currently growing apace inside mums’ tums. For all your personal, private and commercial photography, no job is too small or too weird for the Faerie.

Cinema REVIEWS Les Miserables I’m usually reluctant to quote other reviewers, but Todd McCarthy of the Hollywood Reporter came up with a line for the ages when he described Tom Hooper’s adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s stage phenomenon as ‘musical diarrhoea’. Who am I, I thought, to challenge such a pithy and pungently impertinent assessment?

From the moment that Russell Crowe unleashes his tuneless baritone, you can’t help but get the feeling that Victor Hugo might never have put quill to parchment had he known what his epic novel would be reduced to. In Rusty’s defence, as Inspector Javert, persecutor of the humble but heroic Jean Valjean (Hugh Jackman), he gives the impression of a manacled actor who is yearning to

get stuck into an historically great part (doubtless he’d seen Charles Laughton’s magnificent 1938 portrayal). Anne Hathaway is even more wearisome as Fantine, but thankfully she carks it early – a one-angle close-up in which she emotes with overwrought, X-Factor awfulness provides us with a cavernous look into her gaping, purple-tongued mouth. Jackman cut his teeth on this sort of malarkey and is perfectly comfortable in the role of the nineteenthcentury’s Richard Kimble, but ultimately they are all let down by the dreariest of soundtracks. Compared with cinema’s monumental musicals – South Pacific, West Side Story, The Sound of Music etc – there is not a song that stays in your head, not a melody to hold a candle to ‘Doh, a deer’. Sets, costumes and atmospherics are beyond reproach (the opening shot of the boat being hauled into dry-dock is a fantastic creation), but such studious realism is in itself a serious problem, for it conflicts with the unreality of the genre, constantly nobbling the drama with a sense of silliness (it’s

hard not to giggle). Lacking dialogue, it’s a bit like an opera, but only in the way that Tony Abbott is a bit like a human being. By all accounts, there is a terrific number at the end, but at 157 minutes it was too far away for me. ~ John Campbell

younger Pi (Suraj Sharma), when we are dealing with such distressed and near spectacularly beautiful and overwhelmed by his plight, convincing imagery it hardly eventually understands that matters. At the beginning his twenty-six-foot vessel is a of his conversation with the microcosm of life and all its writer, Pi said that his tale struggles (including a heavy would convince him of the dose of anthropomorphism, existence of God; I’m not sure with the hyena copping a that it did that for me, but it bad rap as villain). Because The Life Of Pi certainly put me in awe of the most profound stories the power and the glory of After peaking (pardon the pun) are usually the simplest, the with Brokeback Mountain, Ang second half of the film is computer-generated imagery. Lee blotted his copybook with inclined to repetition, but Sublime. ~ John Campbell his most recent outing, the regrettable Taking Woodstock TUESDAY (2009). He has, however, made JAN 8 a triumphant return to form to with this lyrical visualisation of MONDAY JAN 14 Yann Martel’s Booker prizewinning novel. Stripped bare, it’s a nautical/spiritual road trip in which we cross the Pacific in a lifeboat with Pi Patel and Richard Parker, a fully grown Bengal tiger. In transferring what was a richly esoteric fable to the screen, Lee’s success can ironically be attributed to the orthodoxy of his approach. He bookends the narrative, told in flashback, with the older Pi (Irrfan Khan) explaining to a biographer (Rafe Spall) the origin of his curious name and how, as a teenager, his NOW SHOWING NOW SHOWING father decided to move the family and his privately owned zoo animals from Pondicherry to Canada. All but Pi and four other creatures perished in a storm at sea. From this point, as is standard procedure, the cuts to Pi and his interviewer are omitted until the concluding, presentday scenes of summary and NOW SHOWING reflection. In between is the NOW SHOWING NOW SHOWING journey, in which Lee wisely lets his camera do the work. The sights are wondrous, whether in 2D or 3D – at one point the audience gasped at the ocean’s glowing phosphorescence. The

1. Mickey Rourke is superb as The Wrestler (ONE HD, Saturday, 8.30pm), directed by Darren Aronofsky, he of the equally emotionally charged Black Swan. Rourke plays an ageing professional wrestler who continues to wrestle matches in an attempt to cling on to his 1980s heyday despite his failing health. 2. There were few singers with the power and charisma of Jim Morrison in his prime, and his band The Doors hardly had a bad track in their catalogue at the time. In Mr Mojo Risin – The Story Of L.A. Woman (SBS2, Sunday, 8.30pm) we learn about The Doors in the context of their final album, L.A. Woman, which was released in April 1971 – shortly before Morrison’s untimely death.

MULLUMBIMBY

5/2 Fletcher St, Byron Bay 6685 5151

Here the ambrosial meals are cooked to order and the scrumptious cocktails and mocktails thrust you into a land of wonderful tales.

centuries’, he says. ‘It stops people being very drunk in the afternoon and the evening.’ It is, he points out, an opportunity to create a cultural change. This is a cafe which has always sought to express its individuality, whose food has been unlike most other establishments in the Shire – share-plates before they became ubiquitous; pillowy polenta propping up poached eggs, spinach and parmesan shards for breakfast. Jade, his wife Laura and Sam Ginks bought the business seven years ago, luring Jade and Laura back from Melbourne where they had been steadily burning themselves out in various restaurants. As for Sam, he had been serving superlative coffees on the premises throughout its various incarnations, beginning with the original espressohead. I know this because I have faithfully frequented them all. And right away understood that, as Cafe one one one, this was my sort of place and my sort of food: peasant European if you like, but also food utilising unpopular or lesser known ingredients, dishes researched from obscure sources, plates challenging expectations. The old mantra of local and seasonal underpinning it all. Ethical, considered, different. And so it comes as no surprise that this cafe has now taken this step. It is a very small step – but the notion of slipping into one one one after a movie at the fabulous new Palace opposite and discussing it with friends over wine and a little crispbread with spiced pear chutney, or some semi-dried olives and almonds for which I will only pay the price of the wine, is utterly enticing – and utterly civilised. ‘We hope’, Jade says, ‘that other licensed food businesses will follow suit.’

The French really know how to do it. Baguettes, croissants, macarons‌ Mullumbimby local Greg Wilton knew this when he went to New Caledonia to train under French pastry chefs. Using local, organic and natural ORDER ONLINE ingredients, Greg is baking his range of delectable Mullumbimby pastries, breads and cakes, all made from Scratch.

BYRON BAY CONTINUED

VICTORIA COSFORD There is a cafe in Byron Bay offering something unique. And rather than doing so as a point-of-difference, its motivation is altruistic: it hopes to lead by example. Cafe one one one in Jonson Street has begun to offer complimentary snacks in the afternoons – specifically for those who pop in for a drink. It is, in the words of coowner and head chef Jade Campbell-Scott, all about ‘trying to turn obligation into opportunity.’ Addressing the town’s formidable reputation for binge-drinking, he and his partners have decided to adopt the centuriesold European tradition of serving tapas-type dishes between 3pm and 5.30pm. After my last visit to Italy I wrote rapturously about the bars there – one in Perugia especially – which always ensure there is some form of food to accompany the consumption of alcoholic beverages; even a tiny bar in a village will provide warm olives in a bowl, or nuts on the counter. This tradition performs the dual function of lining stomachs and embodying the essence of hospitality. Bravely, Jade is trying it out here. He is aware that it may be met with suspicion but will push on regardless. The sorts of snacks he serves draw on, furthermore, the glorious armoury of preserves, relishes, chutneys and pickles his kitchen team has been gradually creating and accruing over the past couple of years, much of it on display at the front of the cafe. This, he tells me, means ‘we can be creative‌ inspire our chefs to try out new things‌ (it) allows us to tickle through all those tasty little things, allows for flexibility and play-time.’ He says that it’s good for the front-of-house staff too, ‘enabling them to engage with customers, explain the food and wine.’ And people get to try something they haven’t tried before. ‘It’s been done in Europe for

Rasta wins 2013 Single Fin Classic

It was all about Byron Shire locals as brothers in surf and sounds, Ash Grunwald and event winner Dave Rastovich spent the morning on the waves and the afternoon entertaining the crowds with some tunes at Saturday’s Single Fin opener. Photo Tree Faerie.

Dave ‘Rasta’ Rastovich has won the open division of the 16th annual Billabong Burleigh Single Fin Festival, trumping an incredible field of 96 surfers that included the who’s who of Gold Coast surfing talent. Stars like former ASP world champion Mark Occhilupo, world number two Luke Egan, reigning world junior Champion Jack Freestone, junior standout Thomas Woods, Wade Goodall and West Australian ripper Creed McTaggert lined up alongside local legends and Burleigh Boardriders champions – all surfing pre-1985-made single-fin boards in classic Burleigh conditions. Surfers traded barrels throughout the unique twoday event, thanks to a pulsing east swell generated from a pressure system situated in the Coral Sea. Wave after wave turned inside-out over the ruler-edge sandbank running the length of the famous point and hundreds of spectators took up position under the pandanus palms and enjoyed two free, live sets by famed Aussie blues musician, Ash Grunwald. There were plenty of per-

fect 10-point rides handed out by the judges with Soli Bailey (Byron Bay), Jack Lewis and Jack Freestone among those locking in perfect scores. But it was grommet Noah Deane who stole the show, registering a perfect heat – 20 out of 20 – thanks to two tens in his quarter-final showing. The Open final was decided by less than a point, with Rastovich just edging out Freestone, who finished second ahead of Noah Deane, Noah Lane, Woods and Anthony Pols. Rastovich received his firstplace prize, a coveted gleaming, hand-shaped single fin made by master craftsman, Dick Van Straalan. ‘It’s such a wonderful thing to be able to come down and pull out these old relics and have a lot of fun on the point’, said Rastovich, before giving a nod to the next generation. ‘I want to thank Dirk for shaping the incredible board. He’s like a second dad to me and one of the legends of the culture. Looking at the board, wow, what an absolute gem!’ Rasta grew up in the area and moved away about ten or

12 years ago. ‘I really miss the headland and the community,’ he said. ‘To come back and see the amount of grommets here – that semifinal and final display from the groms was amazing. It’s so great and it’s important to have events like this and to keep inspiring them to do what they’re doing.’ Fittingly, the Burleigh Single Fin festival culminated on the same day the break was officially recognised by the organisation, National Surfing Reserve (NSR). ‘You travel around the world and see that there is only one Burleigh and this is a place to protect. Everyone here is doing a great job and has the responsibility to continue to help preserve and protect the area’, said Rastovich. An incredible collection of vintage single-fin surfboards were on display across the weekend; sourced from the Gold Coast’s Surf World museum and various private collections. Contestants either rode their own boards, or shared their equipment with others. Former world number two and Newcastle transplant, Luke

At just 17 years of age, PJ Bradford from Toowoomba had his hands more than full with ‘Fun and Games’. PJ is a full-time bull rider and apprentice jockey.

POLICY EXHIBITION Amendment to Policies and Fees and Charges

Egan, rode a board his dad, Sam, shaped in 1978. Egan discovered the board and bought it at auction 15 years ago. Billabong’s Shannon North took to the waves on a very special model – the actual craft that pioneering Gold Coast surfer Joe Engel rode in the seminal film Storm Riders, which was released in 1982 and featured Engel surfing a new discovery – the perfect righthand break of Nias, located in North Sumatra. Another popular model was a six-channel model shaped by legendary Novocastrian, Col Smith, for his son Rique. In all, dozens of boards lay strewn on the grass for people to pick up and check out – a tactile representation of surfing’s design evolution and the pioneers who rode them. ‘Because of the boards and the way they perform, it forces everyone to slow down and focus more on the wave’, said Rasta. ‘It becomes less about high-performance, technical surfing. And it’s so great to see some of the young kids riding these boards; there’re junior surfers riding equipment that is three times their own age.’ It’s the 16th year the event has run, and it maintains a vibe and authenticity like no other. ‘People come up and say, this event is big enough to have grandstands and I go, “Nup, we want to keep it retro, old-school”; we don’t want that crap, we want to keep it like it is,’ said Burleigh Boardriders president Edward Lindores. ‘Everyone enjoying themselves, looking over each other’s shoulders, cruising on the grass. That’s why it’s such a good event. People get close, they talk, they hang out – friends, family – we don’t want infrastructure. We do it for the community of Burleigh – brothers, sisters, friends, mums, dads, grommets, cats, dogs, that’s what we want.’

Renovating your home is an important investment For most people a home is much more than a place to live – it’s a long-term investment. Your renovation decisions will have important consequences for your future living costs and quality of life, so you want to get it right. Times are changing rapidly and new issues need to be factored into smart investment decisions. This is sometimes called ‘future proofing’ – making sure your investment will hold its value over time. When you’re planning your renovation it’s easy to focus on the short term, ‘What can I afford right now?’ But when you think about it, features that enhance resale value, improve comfort and reduce bills are worth paying a little bit more for now. You can use savings on energy and water bills to pay off your mortgage faster. Some financiers offer lower interest rates (known as ‘green’ mortgages) or other financial incentives for home improvements that are designed to save precious resources like energy and water. Government rebates are also available to offset the purchase cost of many energy and water-saving items.

PLAN AHEAD Good planning is such an important part of ensuring value for money. Most renovation budget overruns are the result of poor planning – changing the design halfway through, trying to fix up problems you didn’t see coming, or simply failing to make the most of the opportunities presented. Experienced renovators will tell you how important it is to plan ahead. Write a wishlist of everything you want from your renovation. This can include qualities such as ‘light and airy’ as well as more specific outcomes such as extra living space, an efficient hot-water system or a more functional kitchen. At the same time, take stock of what you’ve got – this step is so important for making the most of your renovation. An assessment of your home will identify the most cost-effective opportunities for big improvements. It will also identify potential hazards so you can deal with them in the most cost-effective way. Use what you find to develop and refine your wishlist.

Cleverly designed to encompass three seperate living areas you will be surprised by the feeling of spaciousness.

Look around for opportunities to save money. Do you really need to extend out or up, or do you just need to redesign your interiors for better use of space? If you plan to demolish sections of the house, are there building materials like windows, doors, floorboards or interior fittings that you can reuse elsewhere, sell or even give away? Look for opportunities to lock in ongoing cost savings too! To save on energy and water bills, find out where you’re using more than you need to – check your current bills or visit the NABERS website http:// www.nabers.gov.au. In some locations there are companies who can come to your home and do a professional water and energy assessment to identify the best ways for you to save on bills. As well as saving money you’ll be helping the environment.

<echowebsection=Real Estate>

IMPROVE COMFORT

Make a note of rooms that are too hot or too cold at different times. A few simple design improvements could make the world of difference to your comfort. If you use a lot of heating or cooling to stay comfortable, your renovation is a chance to ensure lifetime savings on bills. Take the opportunity to insulate walls and double glaze windows. Many older homes are draughty. Add draughtproofing strips to doors and windows and check that new windows and doors have good seals. Fit dampers to chimneys and flues to block air leaks. Now’s your chance to fix up problems like dust, damp and mould. Look for opportunities to make your home safer and easier to move around in for occupants and visitors of all ages and abilities.

BE PREPARED If you see warning signs that may indicate structural problems or other hazards, seek professional advice from an architect, engineer or builder. Signs could include: t NBKPS DSBDLT JO XBMMT BSPVOE EPPST PS XJOEPXT t EBNQOFTT PO XBMMT PS DPNJOH VQ UISPVHI Ę PPST t TJHOT PG UFSNJUFT TVDI BT EBNBHFE UJNCFS Pre-1970s homes are likely to have lead-based paint so if you’re removing it follow the advice in the six-step guide to painting your home (www.environment.gov.au). Homes built pre-1990 may contain asbestos. It’s commonly found under eaves, but may also be found as roofing, wall linings and cladding. If you suspect you have asbestos contact your local council or state health and environment authorities for more information. Removal is not always recommended, but if it is removed, it needs to be done by a specialist.

Backlash The influx of revellers – and the subspecies, dickheads – to the Bay for NYE excites comment, some of which can be seen in the letters pages. Sharon Shostak’s summing-up of the aspirations, dreams and tomfoolery can be seen on Echonetvideo at www.youtube.com/ user/echonetvideo. Q Q Q Q

Further to our Backlash last week about hoon trouble at South Golden Beach, another resident reports: ‘We had our hoon problems over the “festive” season in Sunrise as well. Why these morons think it’s clever to floor their ridiculously overpowered penis-extensions in a residential suburb is anyone’s guess. We have children, pram-pushers, cyclists, pets and all sorts enjoying the streets outside their homes. It only takes a split second to lose control and ruin lives – and control is obviously not in abundance with this pond-life. I’m unconcerned for the pondlife but the damage they risk to innocent others is unacceptable. Why they are allowed to have these vehicles on public roads bewilders me.’ Q Q Q Q

Grail Quest EN

Introduction to Grail Quest (an 8-week course) which is the opening term of the one-year parttime foundation course.

...a journey into the Spiritual Science of Rudolf Steiner...

GRAIL QUEST offers a modern form of adult education based on the work of Rudolf Steiner. Through a deepened understanding of the inner workings of the world and ourselves, inner development and soul transformation are brought about. This in turn leads to an enhanced capacity to transform the outer world. The course consists of lectures, discussions and workshops which are expanded through artistic experiences in music, painting, sculpture, story telling, speech, drama and craft. No previous artistic experience is necessary. The emphasis of the course is away from competition and is focused on individual growth. The course aims to teach through the heart, hand and mind and to bring our efforts to fruition through love of the deed. GRAIL QUEST is also a prerequisite for Steiner Teacher Training programs.

52 January 8, 2013 The Byron Shire Echo

<echowebsection=Backlash>

Some of the themes explored in the course are: The Quest for Meaning. The Elements. The Temperaments. The Origins of the Earth & Humanity. The Evolution of Consciousness. Christology. Biodynamics. The Search for the Holy Grail. Life Phases: an Exploration of Biography. 8 week Introductory Course: $600 Tuesday 4.30 – 7.30pm and Thursday 4.30 – 7.30pm Plus 2 Saturdays 9.30 – 3:30pm Commencing 5th February Venue: Cape Byron Steiner School, McGettigans Lane, Ewingsdale Enquiries: Gerry Josephson 0406 788 050
