Panel announced

Action not words: resident Simone Pauley has been inspired to collect rubbish along New Brighton beach and is now calling on others to adopt the ‘Take It Away Now’ message. Story & photo Eve Jeffery

With all the discussion over what is to be done about the rubbish in the shire, a New Brighton woman has decided that her actions will speak louder than words. Simone Pauley says that she often walks the beach to North Wall. ‘My son and I often stop to pick up rubbish we find along the way and take it home to bin as there are few council bins provided near beach walkways.’ On New Years Eve, Simone decided she wanted a year of positive changes where she actively gave back

‘If you throw a plastic bottle into a waste bin in town, it goes straight into the landfill at the Myocum tip. ‘We don’t have magic recycling faeries working there picking through the landfill and recycling it. ‘Surely, if every resident of the shire took a bag out, and picked up any rubbish they saw – from the beach, parks, town or just around their own streets Acting on litter instead of – this would make a huge difference.’ says she wants to encourblaming tourists or council ageSimone residents to join in once a month ‘If we take it home, it keeps the to actively pick up rubbish, recycle bins in public spaces from overflow- everything possible, and bin the rest. ing and it also means we can recycle ‘Anyone who lives in residential arewhat we can. as has a garbage collection, you pay to

to her community. She has been inspired by the work of others in recent weeks and feels that instead of blaming tourists or the council for all the rubbish it would make a difference if all the shire’s residents just stopped and picked up rubbish when they saw it and took it home to dispose of.

have the bins picked up in your rates or in rent, and it would help take the strain off public infrastructure as well.’ Simone says her plan now is to get as many friends as possible involved via social media to adopt the ‘Take It Away Now’ message. ‘I’ve committed to doing this (at least) once a month now. If you can’t join us this Saturday please consider joining our Take It Away Day next month on February 16. You can find the Facebook page at www.facebook.com/TakeItAwayNow.

‘through a revamp of the death and disability program.’ ‘Currently we are operating at 90 per cent or more operational strength which means we have 20 per cent more police on the street than we had two years ago.’ He added crime rates are currently 50 per cent less than they were two years ago. ‘Finally, I want to say that alcohol-fuelled violence is on the rise not only in the Tweed Byron LAC but across the state, if not across the country. It is not unique to Byron Bay. ‘Police powers and fines have been increased and courts have been given greater powers to deal with this.’ As for actual police numbers, both state Nationals MPs Provest (Tweed) and Page (Ballina) appear to be at odds over how many have been assigned to the area in recent times. Mr Provest told The Echo that 27 probationary officers were allocated to the Tweed Byron LAC over the last 18 months, while Mr Page said ‘I am advised that the Tweed/Byron Local Area Command has had 23 new officers allocated since the last state election, which is a significant increase.’

Tweed MP Geoff Provest is claiming police in the region are operating at 90 per cent capacity despite Labor claims that he failed to deliver on his election campaign to increase police numbers. It comes after state Labor MP Walt Secord said police numbers are the same as they were in 2009 and Mr Provest has yet to fulfil his promise to assign 59 extra police for Tweed, which also covers Byron Shire. ‘Geoff Provest is unwilling or unable to respond to Tweed crime issues,’ he told media last week. In response, Mr Provest told The Echo that, ‘Part of a local MP’s role is to work with the local police to ensure they have the resources they require, not what the media or others who are not professional officers think they should have.’ Fireworks cracked over the Bruns River last weekend to mark Mr Provest claims that when the start of ther Bruns Fish ‘n’ Chips festival.

Chamber speaks out on NYE Byron United, the town’s chamber of commerce, have sought to address some of the public’s dissatisfaction at the recent NYE celebrations. A statement by the board reads, ‘After Byron Shire Council’s New Years Eve organising Committee requested Byron United’s assistance in funding fireworks, Byron United, through its members raised $15,000 to ensure fireworks went ahead. Byron United was keen to support Byron Shire Council’s efforts to stage a family-friendly event.

‘We acknowledge community concerns, including litter management and other social impacts on our town. ‘The Byron United board is committed to working closely with Council, community groups and other stakeholders through representation on the safety committee, participation in public forums, and actively engaging in regular dialogue with Council and community groups to ensure that future New Years Eve celebrations are not only safe and well managed, but also meet community and visitor expectations.’

A draft submission form for those those wishing to object to a Byron Bay KFC development application is now available on the Keep Byron Free From KFC Facebook page. The page also outlines areas of concern at http://on.fb.me/ VVlpsL. Among objections raised are the ‘increasing occurrence of obesity’, citing ‘energydense, nutrient-poor’ (EDNP) foods as a primary driver behind our nation’s current obesity epidemic. The objections also take aim at KFC’s proposed sign, noting that the application ‘includes the removal of an established tree near the [Woolies plaza] car park entrance and the erection of an 8.5-metre-high illuminated pylon sign (complete with bucket)…’ Objectors also claim the addition of a KFC franchise in Byron Bay ‘has real potential to undermine a long-built tourism image that markets Byron Bay as an alternative, family-friendly and unique holiday destination. Submissions to Byron Shire Council on DA 10.2012.599.1 close on Monday January 28.

Bangalow development meeting draws 100 A meeting of least 100 people in Bangalow’s RSL Hall last Thursday night saw around 75 per cent opposed to a proposed four-storey development at 9 Station Street. The claim was made by Tony Hart, who chaired the meeting. He told The Echo, ‘My main issue is that Station Street needs a precinct plan to avoid it becoming an ad-hoc development zone’. The proposal would include eight flats, three shops and 18 underground car parks. In related news, the Bangalow Park Trust Committeecontacted The Echo regarding a previous statement by town

planner and proponent of the development, Paul De Fina. ‘In regard to the current dwelling [at 9 Station Street], Mr De Fina stated “it will be given free to Bangalow Showground Trust to replace the existing caretaker’s cottage, which is in need of major repair”. ‘We wish to emphatically state that this offer has yet to be given proper consideration by the Bangalow Park Trust, a management 355 Committee of Byron Council. We would also like to refute, that by anyone’s standards, the caretaker’s cottage is not in a state of disrepair, as stated by Mr De Fina.’

CSG company Metgasco has announced that drilling commenced at a Glenugie property on Thursday night and may continue for several weeks. But a blockade that started eight weeks ago in the rural area southeast of Grafton is showing no signs of letting up, despite the arrest of 18 of protesters last week. With a plea that has been shared across the social media pages, Melissa Green, who is the co-founder of the Glenugie Action Group, openly invited everyone to come join the action after activists moved to a new base. ‘A new camp has been struck on private prop-

erty, which the police will not be allowed to enter unless under warrant. And let them try that. We are calling all those who want to come and help to please come on down and join us in our struggle.’ Protesters have shown that they will not be easily swayed and with up to 20 CSG-free groups in the north of the state for backup, Metagasco can expect to see more of the same. ‘Over the next few day [sic], I am sure that Metgasco will find out they’ve bitten off a bit more than they can chew,’ posted Ms Green posted earlier on Wednesday. ‘Stay tuned peeps!’

Realtor and writers’ fest chair calls for community group Mandy Nolan

Every summer season the community becomes vocal about tourism and its impacts on Byron Shire. Letters to the editor and online contributions outline a growing displeasure with managing New Years Eve, increased traffic flows, lack of of public amenity such as clean toilets and parks, alcohol consumption and violence, and a general feeling that Byron is fast becoming paradise lost. Longtime resident, real estate principal and chair of the Byron Writers’ Festival, Chris Hanley, believes that a community group is the way forward. ‘We need an organisation or group called Our Community that has some very simple goals – that isn’t political, that is a town group, it could be a shire organisation or it could be a function in each town: Mullum, Byron, Bangalow – with all those groups meeting once a quarter as a larger group. ‘The group needs to have some simple goals. It might just start off as a place to talk – there is a lot of fear out there about speaking out.’ Mr Hanley believes that the town needs to engage a broad cross-section of Byron Shire residents and that we leave our historically parochial attitudes at the door. ‘We have to find a way to engage the new people who have moved here in the last five or six years who are talented and successful, as well as longtime residents who know this region better than anyone and who have been the most affected by decades of change,’ he says. ‘We have to stop asking that question: how long have you been here? Where do you live?

How are we going to raise money? ‘The fourth phase is an exciting and interesting one and that would be to see whether the organisation could attract and draw in some talented people who live here to try to do some interesting things.’ It is the broad community inclusion that Mr Hanley believes is the key. ‘If a community organisation is to work in our area, it has to involve all the different groups who live here, people who were born and bred here and people who are more recent arrivals, otherwise it’s not a true reflection of the community. ‘It has to involve people from the lowest socio-economic groups to the highest, people in tourist related business, and people who are not; youth, school principals, Indigenous, the elderly etc. The weird thing here is that people are all passionate, whatever their politics, about the place. What we don’t have is a vehicle to direct the passion, and the only way we are going to get a vehicle is if we build our own.’ This is one of the proposals to be discussed at the open community forum, ‘Our Community’ on Saturday January 26 at 6pm at the Byron Community Centre.

A love of community radio finds Ros in Nairobi Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Always passionate about community, and in particular community radio, Ros Elliott is going international this week as she heads to Kenya to take part in a community radio project in Nairobi. Ros, who is well known locally for her work with Byron’s community radio BayFM, is traveling under the banner of the Red Cross and AusAID. She will be working in Nairobi with African Community Development Media (ACDM), an organisation whose objective is to strengthen the capacity of communities to formulate, articulate and interpret development issues. ACDM aims to provide a platform for communities to access information and is committed to spreading community-based radio stations to all constituencies so that communities can generate their media and determine issues that are

important to them. She told The Echo, ‘My role is to work with an existing team of eight people who want somebody to help create content for community radio in Nairobi itself. ‘They are thinking a series or a radio play or something like that. My Kenyan colleagues will identify what development issues they want to get across and together we will work out how to do it.’

Ros, who went through a rigorous process to be chosen for the project, says that she will be living in an environment where HIV and poverty are prevalent.

In Kenya for a year ‘People live on less than a dollar a day,’ she says. Ros left Australia last Friday to make her way to Africa. She will live in Kenya for a year and be a part of the community ra-

Lennox Bowlo needs $184,o00 to open Eve Jeffery

In a meeting held at the club last week, the Lennox Bowling Club has been granted a reprieve, but there is still a lot of work to be done before they can safely say they are in the clear. Over 500 people attended the meeting held last Thursday, and while the club’s membership has swelled to 634, a cash injection is needed to reopen the club’s doors. ‘The figure we are looking for is $184,000 and we have now raised $10,500’, says spokesperson for the club, Pip Carter. ‘There is a long way to go but it’s a good start. I feel we need closer to $200,000.’ Mr Carter says the community is already putting their money where their mouth is.

‘At the public meeting, which was the initial push to get funds, we received $6,300 in member fees and we took the bucket around and people were kind enough to put another $4,400 plus.’ The money will be used for advertising, marketing, mailing, website upgrades, lawyers, licence procurement, de-amalgamation process, establishing a new club, running fundraising events and stationery. ‘I have been told that a lawyer can cost between $50,000 to $100,000 to deal with legal fees.’ Mr Carter says members need to keep the ball in motion. ‘That is, keep speaking with Ramsgate to get the deamalgamation through and ensure we keep the town behind us and enthusiastic. We don’t

want to over-fundraise and get other organisations in the community offside. We have to be mindful that there are other organisations wanting to raise funds as well.’ Mr Carter hopes to see the club reopen this time next year. ‘We have been informed that it can take from 12 to 24 months to open.’ He says that the club is being maintained, there are security guards and cameras in place. ‘The club look fine and the greens are being maintained in an appropriate fashion.’ As to the question of the pokies licences, Mr Carter says they will remain in place. ‘We have been informed by Phil Bragg the CEO of Ramsgate that the licences and 28 physical machines will be

ours. The cost is to ensure that the licences are paid when and as they fall due.’ There will be a members’ meeting in the first week of February where a new committee will be elected. For more information, visit the website: savelennoxbowlsclub.com.au.

Why preferential voting is a fair method Volume 27 #31

January 15, 2013

Nouveau activism Since Australia swapped riding the sheep’s back for coal trucks, enormous PR budgets and legislation became necessary to protect resource extraction revenue and quell dissent. Indeed it takes mass collective hypnosis to convice ourselves that the planet should continue to be polluted with fossil fuels when renewable technology is available. An interesting hiccup in that unevolved narrative was activist Jonathan Moylan’s prank on the NSW coal industry last week; governments and corporations appear confounded and have yet to figure out what to do about his actions. He faked a press release from ANZ to highlight the bank’s complicity and investment in destroying the Leard State Forest, west of Armidale, for mining profits. The result was it temporarily wiped $314 million off Whitehaven Coal shares, which is an ANZ investment. While the government was quick to seize his computer and mobile phone, why haven’t charges been laid? It’s because legal precedent is yet to be established on such activity, Crikey’s Sally Whyte reports. ‘According to Associate Professor Keturah Whitford at the Australian National University’s College of Business and Economics, Moylan could be charged under Section 1041E [of the Corporations Act 2001], but could also face civil action from stakeholders under Section 1041H of the [Corporations] Act. There isn’t an Australian precedent to foreshadow the likelihood of conviction or possible sentences. Whitford says it’s “hard to predict sentencing, but the extent of damage including losses to investors would be taken into account and the fact that he wasn’t personally profiting”.’ Moylan’s inventive media activism is somewhat similar to that of the Yes Men, who use parody and satire to highlight psychopathic corporate behaviour. In the long term, the fossil fuel industry will lose the battle against renewables simply because renewable energy provides a means of production. It’s a simple economic premise not even relevant to environmental destruction. And in case this all sounds too whacky, James Hansen, head of NASA’s Goddard Institute of Space Studies, said in 2008: ‘CEOs of fossil-energy companies know what they are doing and are aware of long-term consequences of continued business as usual. In my opinion, these CEOs should be tried for high crimes against humanity and nature.’ Well said, can’t wait, bring it on. Hans Lovejoy, editor

o now we know what it was really all about. Having floated the idea of voluntary voting and had it dismissed as far too radical, the Liberals are getting down to the nitty gritty. Well, if voluntary voting is off the table, what about optional preferential? Surely that’s a fair and reasonable compromise? This, of course, is precisely the tactic of the militant trades unions the Libs affect to despise: start with an ambit claim, an agenda far too extravagant to be taken seriously. And then, once negotiations are under way, get down to what you really want. It may have appeared outrageous if you had sprung it out of the blue, but in the context of the previous wild demands it becomes something like the middle ground. It’s not, of course: it is naked self-interest, and the irony is that this is precisely the reason the anti-Labor forces introduced compulsory preferential voting back in 1918. Australian politics seldom has much to do with altruism, and when it comes to the electoral laws, never. The point about preferential voting is that it delivers not the candidate who is most loved, but the one who is least loathed. Say you have just three nominees. Hughie, Dewey and Louis, and just 100 voters. In the first count, Hughie gets 40 votes, Dewey 35 and Louis 25. Louis, as the back runner, is eliminated, but his votes stay alive; we now count the votes numbered 2 on the papers where Louis was numbered 1 – the second preferences. And it turns out that Hughie only gets five of them while Dewey gets 20. Dewey is therefore declared the winner, 55–45. He wasn’t the most popular, but he was acceptable to more voters than Hughie was. He was, in other words, the preferred candidate. It seems a fair enough method, and it gives

the voters more bang for their buck; if their first choice goes out, they get another chance – or, if there are a lot of candidates, quite a few more chances. And it brings third parties into play: in the example above, without preferential voting – with the system called first past the post – Hughie, though the choice of less than half the voters, would have been elected automatically, while the 25 per cent who wanted Louis would have

and in federal terms the same has applied ever since: Green preferences saved Julia Gillard in 2010 and without them she would have no chance this year. Hence Bronwyn Bishop’s appeal is not to axe preferential voting altogether – heavens no, she is not an extremist. All she wants is for voters to be given a choice. If they don’t want to vote for someone, then they shouldn’t have to – even though a last

The point about preferential voting is that it delivers not the candidate who is most loved, but the one who is least loathed by Mungo MacCallum been effectively disenfranchised. And this was why the system was introduced; in 1918 the conservative vote was being split between the Nationalists and the emerging Country Party, while the Labor vote remained rock solid. If the Nationalists and the Country party could exchange preferences, it would give them control; and so it proved for more than a decade until the Nationalists themselves fell apart. And for almost all of the last century the system delivered, usually to Labor’s discomfort; after the great split of the 1950s. the preferences of the Democratic Labor party sustained the conservative coalition until 1972. But then quite suddenly the playing field changed. In the 1980s the Australian Democrats started giving a majority of their preferences to Labor, and in the 90s the Greens followed suit. Indeed, Labor’s election-winning strategy in 1990 was based on winning their preferences to prop up Labor’s declining primary vote,

adopted the optional preferential system. And not only that, in both cases the change was made by a Labor state government, so it can’t be a simply a matter of partisan politics. And she’s right; in 1980 Neville Wran introduced optional preferential, and in 1992 Wayne Goss followed suit. In both case, of course, it was done for perceived short-term advantage, with little or no thought to the wider political environment or the damage that could be wrought in times to come; and indeed the way ‘Just Vote One’ strategy was used by Barry O’Farrell and Campbell Newman to devastate Labor governments should cement Gillard’s determination to stop the rot from going federal. Of course, there may come a time when compulsory preferential is once again to the coalition’s advantage. If the Greens fade away, and the Bob Katter Party starts siphoning off conservative supporters, or the National Party gets a bit bumptious and starts asserting its independence, there could be something of a reprise of the situation in 1918 and Labor might start thinking that a return to first past the post, or at least to optional preferential, might not be such a bad thing after all; and of course at that point Bronwyn Bishop and her fellow Liberals would realise that such a change would unfair, purely opportunistic and a threat to democracy as we know it. Because changing the electoral laws is like that. If it works for you, it’s a visionary reform. If it doesn’t, it’s a crime against humanity. As Labor’s great numbers man and the architect of the 1990 preferential strategy, Graham Richardson, might put it: Whatever it takes.

preference for a candidate is effectively an absolute rejection. All they have to do is to put number 1 next to the candidate of their choice, although they can still number as many of the other candidates as they want to. But experience shows that as time goes on, fewer and fewer of them will bother, and eventually preferential voting will die a natural and painless death. The fact that the Liberals have put Bishop up front to carry the case suggests that they are not taking it all that seriously – which is probably wise of them, because there is no way that a Labor government would ever allow the change to take place, all the more so if it relies on the support of minorities – Greens and Independents. Without preference swaps with a major party, minorities would wither and die. But Bishop has a point to make: there is confusion, leading to higher than usual informal Q See Mungo live at voting in federal polls, because two states – New South Wales and Queensland – have already www.echonetdaily.net.au

Bangalow: is it a cul-de-sac for parochial whingers? Q At least a hundred people turned out last Thursday night to express their views on the controversial development intended to be the neighbour of the town’s historic A&I Hall. In a generally polite and articulate meeting most people made it clear that they had grave reservations about the Sydney-based developer’s plans for their historic town. Objections ranged from the generally inappropriate design and function of the building on this site to problems with safety for primary school children in the narrow lane planned as its access to the unwelcome precedent it will set for the street, which is already largely in the hands of developers.

There was some support for the project, including an impassioned but confused effort from someone who I believe is a relative of the design draughtsman. Also a student of design advised us that we were hopelessly out of date in wishing to preserve the town’s character and what we needed was more residential development in the business centre to alleviate the onerous journeys from Bangalow’s far-flung suburbs. We now wait to see what the council makes of this.

Aboriginal rights

for this. It seems to be a mistake. Most of the coastal protection zone has been removed from this LEP as ‘deferred matters’ to give the state government time to comprehensively do us over on Planned Retreat. Council has made a start by not deferring, and instead proposing removing 12ha from the coastal erosion zone and rezoning it for uses such as intensive tourism, business and residential development. Given that Council abandoned their Coastal Zone Management Plan they cannot justify abandoning Planned Retreat and allowing such intensive development in an identified erosion area. There is no credible justification for removal of some other areas of rainforest and highconservation-value native vegetation, such as the removals to allow urban expansion into the wildlife corridor and scenic escarpment above Suffolk Park. Any review needs to include these deleted environmental zones. I wonder if Don Page will intervene to ensure they are included in his review.

Sisters for Reconciliation and The Cavanbah Reconciliation Group would like to publicly support the right of Aboriginal peoples to gather and fish in their traditional waters. The traditional custodians of this country have sustainably farmed these places for tens of thousands of years; they have lost so much since the arrival of white settlers in their homeland – surely there can be no opposition to their harvesting for their own and their families’ immediate needs. Sharing and caring is the basis of Aboriginal culture – this is a wonderful opportunity for non-Indigenous Australians to embrace that sentiment and support this sustainable practice by First Australians. Bronwyn Sindel

on behalf of Sisters for Reconciliation (Northern Rivers) and the Cavanbah Reconciliation Group

E zone concerns

The focus of debate on the draft Byron Local Environment Plan (LEP) has been on the addition of environmental protection zones over high-conservationvalue native vegetation. Don Page has intervened to delay, and probably stop, any additional protection beyond that identified in the 1988 LEP. Amid this debate Byron Shire Council has failed to highlight that it is proposing removing protection for 131 hectares of existing environmental zones. Most of these deletions are unjustified or unjustifiable. Of particular concern is the proposed removal of protection for 93 hectares of scenic escarpment zones, mostly around Mount Chincogan and at Broken Head. In a belated response to my queries, last Monday Council told me that it appears there wasn’t any specific justification

approved in Bangalow last year. One an extension of Clover Hill estate on the fields behind the Bangalow Medical Centre, one an extension of Charlotte and Thomas Streets behind St Kevin’s Church, and another an addition to the estate branching off Rifle Range Rd. These are all generic subdivisions. Stock standard, unimaginative, culde-sac developments which turn rolling, rural farmland into the 1/4 acre ‘dream’. These developments passed without objection. Yet when the DA for 9 Station Street was lodged suddenly the curmudgeons came out of the woodwork and the complaints started rolling in. Why the inconsistency in objections?

Byron Shire suffers a serious lack of diversity of housing stock and our housing shortage and affordability crisis won’t be resolved by building more suburbia. I would argue that not only should the DA in Bangalow be approved but more of its type encouraged. NIMBYs in the Byron Shire seem to kick and scream whenever they see a DA with a description like ‘four storey’ as if it will usher in the construction of skyscrapers along Main Beach. More Byronians need to understand that dense, intricate, walkable designs are a good thing for our shire. They promote sustainability, community, employment and help create an attractive public realm

we can be proud of. It concerns me that no one makes a peep about mundane developments like Tallowood Ridge which are nothing but urban sprawl. But a DA for ‘townhouses’ at 27–29 Station Street, Mullumbimby, fills the papers with letters of complaint. Admittedly the design for that particular DA is horrific, but the idea of building proper terrace houses in the traditional sense should be met with praise. Brownfield developments like 9 Station Street, Bangalow, are much less insidious and need to be encouraged. They make use of existing infrastructure while enhancing the built environment and bringing new dynamism to our towns.

Bangalow is such a beautiful place because it was founded and built on sociopetal design principles. This is why people go there, because it’s a desirable place to just be. How often do you hear someone say ‘Let’s spend the afternoon in Baywood Chase’? As a student of architecture and urban design who was born in Bangalow 23 years ago, I hope I speak for the next generation when I say that we don’t want to inherit a few cul-de-sacs from a bunch of parochial whingers, but rather a complex, living, sophisticated, well-designed, urban environment we will be proud to call our own.

gathered there, representing a large cross-section of society including farmers and teachers, social workers, artists and carpenters, parents and grandparents. The state government brought in 60 police who forcibly removed the peaceful protesters and pushed the drilling equipment through. This taxpayer-funded bullying resulted in 18 arrests. Despite this, there is still a presence continuing at Glenugie. There will be more non-violent direct action, and numbers will grow as people become aware of the terrifying destructiveness of these industries to our most fertile farmlands (even the Hunter and Arcadia Valleys are being mined), our irreplaceable water reserves and our priceless national parks. On Monday February 11 there will be a silent vigil at the Grafton Local Court (47 Victoria Street, Grafton) mourning the effects of the well on the land and supporting those whose cases will be heard on that day.

It is a python the movement of a drill rig to we feed every time we fill up the site, around 200 people with petrol, switch on a fan, or

For the purposes of the Genocide Convention the target group is ultimately all of humanity (as just one of the species victimised). The genocidal investors are: (a) causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; and (b) deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part. Now let’s see what a 52oC day feels like, or let’s build renewable electricity and electrify industry, transport, and agricultural equipment.

seems to agree it would be a great idea, so I am now offering this concept to the community at large for feedback and suggestions to see if we could actually manifest a free school to help teach kids and young adults life skills from caring, talented and willing volunteers from our own commu-

A cultural challenge: untrashing Byron Bay A couple of years ago, John Bailey, Norm Sanders and a couple of other people registered the Byron Ratepayers Association. The purpose of the BRA was to counter the onesided and well-funded efforts of Byron United and the hotels, liquor stores profiting at the expense of the social life and amenity of Byron Bay. It was also set up to try to stem the mega festival tsunami which obviously has the capacity to drown Byron and surrounding townships. Our first effort was a conference on drugs and alcohol.  We had some great speakers and there was a lot of pre-publicity effort. The result – a big yawn from the community. As time and effort progressed, the lack of support from the community was sad to witness. Perhaps

Byronians are just exhausted from the years of campaigning against Club Med, mega festivals, unchecked development, schoolies, rental properties being turned into holiday nightmares – the list is endless. But it is clear from the ridiculous statements coming out of Byron United and the money men, who must be still counting their profits from the New Years Eve disaster, that there’s a desperate need for balance and for a community voice. The zen koan for January is where will that voice come from? And do Byronians care enough after the Christmas/ New Year disasters to take a stand? Byron is at the crossroads. So is this country.

Ocean Shores Q It

is a lazy politician who advocates imposing a tax to fix a problem. Byron’s tourist influx is in many ways a problem caused by a government hellbent on appeasing developers’ voracious appetites, and tourist and festival operators’ glib regard for local amenity as they hijack the environment for their own profit. Much of which goes out of the shire, the state and the country. A shire-wide e-toll system with residents’ exemption, including a park-and-ride component into and out of the Bay, is one good way to fund and handle the tourist wave at peak holiday periods and festival times. A bed tax is not! Byron Shire Council must be allowed to adopt a user-pays system to help it and us residents to cope better with the visitors who come to our shire in their millions each year. Of course, the local business lobby will scream blue murder and cry foul to the state government as usual. If Don Page really cares about this mess he will clear the way for BSC to do its job and act in a way that represents the needs of our community over the fiction presented over and over again by vested interests, and do his job as elected to do, by truly representing and advocating for the voters in the shire.

Yelgun Q This

morning (Wednesday January 9) as I walked the beach from Captain Cook Lookout to The Pass and then around the lighthouse I really thought I was in a Third World country. Of course I’m talking about the amount of rubbish on the beach, in the car parks, and around the foreshores. I’ve been walking this route for 13 years now and I’ve never seen it so bad. And I wasn’t alone this morning in thinking it was Third World – I overheard a number of tourists make the same comment. So here’s one solution – and it’s a challenge for Byron United! The people who sell the stuff that ends up as litter in our otherwise beautiful town should have a moral responsibility to contribute to cleaning it up. Apart from this responsibility, there are also opportunities for Byron businesses (and particularly the liquor outlets) to market themselves through this initiative. In addition, Byron United, here is an opportunity to get the locals onside, provide some casual

employment and clean up the Bay (which will only enhance the reputation of the place and the business community). The aim is to clean up the rubbish hotspots (eg beaches, car parks, foreshores, water tank, Cowper St ‘campground’ etc) in Byron Bay by 9am each day. This should be done by a small team of casual workers employed by the local business community. They should wear fluoro vests emblazoned with the Byron United logo (or individual business logos) and a statement about caring for Byron Bay. They will need a cheap ute (similarly adorned) and a point of contact/overseeing in the business community. The team would only have to work a few hours a day as they would be supplementing the cleanup operations of the council and the NPWS. I’d be happy to talk with a representative of BU (or individual businesses) to help make this happen. I’d also encourage other members of the community who support this idea to make their views known to members of BU directly or through our local newspapers. Mike Beckingham

Byron Bay Q As I was reading last week’s Echo account of the Great Tourist Trash of 2012–3, I started composing my own letter to Ed. Then I read Mandy’s column and saw that she had said it all, so I can only write to say how much I support what she says and to urge others to also endorse her ideas and to keep an eye out for the Echo public forum on Byron’s future. In her usual clear-sighted and ‘no bullshit’ way she brings out the main points – the state fosters the invasion but won’t subsidise infrastructure; the local businesses encourage it and market the place to death but won’t hear of possible solutions like more paid parking or entry barricades to check accommodation arrangements, or a bed tax. Then (old hippy that she is), Mandy goes for the holistic solution – why not get past the Us-and-Them standoff and accept that tourism is here to stay, but let’s manage it for the whole community, neither hoping it will all go away, nor accepting the bullying from some of the ‘business community’ that it’s all about economics and jobs (backpackers’ jobs?). So the main aims are – how to get more money out of the tourists; how to attract the right kind of tourists; what entertainments to offer over the holiday season; how to get rid of streetside camping. Surely these aims would be agreed on by everyone? Surely residents and businesses can get fair shares here; surely it’s not all about the pubs

and accommodation providers and the fast foodies and restaurant-owners getting all the benefits? It’s our town and our New Years Eve as well and we want to be able to enjoy it as well as the tourists. Christine Willmot

Sunrise Beach Q I am visiting Byron for the first time in ten years. At this stage, I would not be in a hurry to come back. I was prepared to pay a significant premium for renting the unit we have but I have been very disappointed by the large numbers of people camping in their cars at the beaches and in suburban streets. It seems that anywhere there is a scrap of bush that will allow them privacy for toileting purposes, they turn up in numbers. In this case they not only leave their rubbish in the street but they also leave little deposits of toilet paper and literally crap everywhere. Could I suggest that the council look at providing a spillover camping ground with toilet facilities to attract these ratbag elements for the peak periods to supplement the permanent facilities? Importantly, the council should then police illegal camping more heavily. I would suggest wheel clamping with an enforced period of waiting for 48 hours and $500 fee to reclaim the vehicle.

T Porter

Toowoomba Q As

residents of Byron we are very tolerant to the many visitors we have during the variety of events that draw visitors. The town centre during the day has a mostly happy, excited feel about it. Not so on New Years Eve. I had an appointment in town and walked up as I do regularly. I was shocked at the aggressive ‘get out of my way’ attitude of people heading to the beachfront. I was shouldered out of the way and took refuge in a local shop. I was very glad to get home. This is not an exaggeration, nor am I precious. I wonder if the Byron United president was in the same town as me. It is now January 9 and like many locals I am still collecting rubbish all over town. Thanks to the many locals who love and protect this beautiful town every day. United we can address many issues but not when it is inferred that local people exaggerate, gossip, gabfest or are precious. This attitude will solve nothing. It was scary out there Jen Shiels

Byron Bay Q In response to the article ‘Gabfest erupts over Byron’s boozy new years eve’ (Echo, January 8). It is naive to think that New

Years Eve celebrations in Byron Bay are ‘family friendly’ or ‘resident focused’, as Paul Waters states. as far as I am aware no residents, other than the members of Byron United, are even consulted about what they’d like to see on New Years Eve. He is also completely incorrect in stating that the outcries of locals are ‘exaggerated and too precious’. As a resident of Sunrise, I would have liked to invite Paul to come and clean up the rubbish left behind by the literally hundreds of people who camped and partied in their cars along Sunrise Boulevard for three days and nights, leaving behind literally thousands of pieces of rubbish, including a mattress, clothing, food waste (KFC and Maccas too!), a few thousand alcohol bottles, cans, and alcohol packaging and even human shit! Deb Pearse’s comments, however, are on the money! Considering how much money Byron United threw away on silly amusement rides and fireworks, why didn’t they think to throw some of that money towards supporting Street Cruise on New Years Eve, who were engaged on the night anyway, but no doubt at the expense of Byron Youth Service! Even though St Johns Ambulance were there, they obviously were paid as well, which would have sent that money up Tweed way, when maybe that money could have been kept in Byron, by engaging some of the well-trained Schoolies HUB volunteers to do the job. The ‘donation’ that went to St Johns could have gone to BUDDI (Byron Underage Drinking & Drug Initiative – Community Drug Action Team) who could have supplied 100 local volunteers to look after the first aid and intox problems. These volunteers are also really good at managing alcohol and bottles in the park and beach area, by simply asking people to be respectful and ‘bin it’, which makes a huge difference during Schoolies! Maybe it’s also time that the police rethink their resources for things like Schoolies and New Years Eve. Personally, I think the presence of the Riot Squad would have been far better at New Years Eve, than at Schoolies, where we had very little trouble this year. Maybe we should revisit the idea of putting a gated New Years Eve event on, somewhere like Red Devils, and removing a few thousand of the New Years Eve revellers off the streets altogether. It would certainly make the streets and park and beach a little safer and also allow us to ‘manage’ the crowd in some way – behind a fence! Nicqui Yazdi

Dancing between worlds with Kawika Lilith Rocha

Brandon Kawika Foster dances life between a remote, mistkissed island valley off the grid with supplies wheeled in by barrow and major-city cultural presentations in Holland, Switzerland, Israel and Australia – a choreography moving between geographical extremes, ancient and modern polarities. Born in Hawaii, raised in Costa Rica, Arizona and California, with a degree from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, Kawika returned to study at the University of Hawaii and in 2007 became the 51st-generation apprentice to Kumu Pa’a Lawrence Kalainia Kamani Aki of Halawa Valley, Molokai – the lineage-holder of 50 generaLETTERS from page 11

My vision is to offer each young adult a smorgasbord of classes and personal mentors to choose from, to inspire and encourage each into his or her full creative and productive potential so that they may make positive life choices for themselves. I would be willing to volunteer my services to run a short cooking class, showing and teaching kids how to make healthy, tasty, ten-minute meals on a tight budget. I just can’t stop thinking about the potential of this! I’d love to know what others feel about it and who would like to get involved in any way so that we may make this concept into a reality, inspiring the whole community on board in some way or other.

What a pity

It’s a pity Jan Barham used the term ‘The Cornells’ (Letters, January 8). Was she following the way of the discredited patriarchy in lumping Ms Delaney in with her husband? Convenient, of course, but many of us have fought the good fight to eliminate such sexist thinking. In Byron Bay, of all places! Jan Murray

Today after a few words with the Essential Energy works man, he told me he was also a victim the high cost of electricity. What I said to him was, ‘How come there are two light trucks, two huge trucks and about eight men here to remove one high branch from a tree on my property. It is 9.30am and no-one is working. This is the second time the men have been here with all their equipment and the cost must be at least one thousand dollars just for this morning. I am 70 years old and believe I could have done the same job in half a day. Furthermore, I am told that 40 per cent of my electricity bill goes to you guys and I am wondering how much of that 40 per cent goes to the people that sit in their office ticking boxes.’ I had to explain that I was not abusing the workers but simply telling the truth. He told me he believed the system to be the fault, as their paperwork is

trained in the esoteric art of hamohamo, precursor to modern lomilomi massage, and while visiting Byron is giving sessions in lomilomi and ho’oponopono (making things right) – the Hawaiian practice of conflict resolution and mental cleansing. And hula lessons... Hawaiian hula teachers are rare in this area, and in twenty years of hula-watching Kawika’s the most mesmerising male dancer I’ve ever seen. Male dancers get a lot of attention, so don’t be shy, men – come join the Byron wahines for some hula moves. See manaokahiko.com for more on Kawika, and Kathryn Roberts can be contacted for all class and session info on 0407 877 309 or krobertsau@ yahoo.com.au. often the holdup. I know I am not an expert on the subject but my blood boils when I feel there is what appears to be a blatant ripoff and a system that sees a healthy group of workers spending a lot of time doing nothing. Also, are we older electricity users paying for those solar panels which give huge rebates? I found I would be about 110 years old before my solar panels paid off. It is obvious that many pensioners will be cold next winter for fear of not being able to pay their heating costs. I believe an independent time-and-motion person should sort this mess out from top to bottom before the winter. Len Hend

LEGENDARY OFFROAD TYRES

See our ad every week in the Service Directory and on Echonetdaily echonetdaily.net.au

Protecting boundaries at Brunswick Byron Council resolved to establish a 3m foreshore buffer zone and 10m building setback along all waterways in 2000 and 2002, in line with local government caravan park regulations. This followed a very public, transparent and ongoing campaign to reinstate foreshore access in Terrace Park initiated by Brunswick Heads Progress Association(BHPA) and maintained by Foreshore Protection Group (FPG) throughout the past decade. All foreshore residents in Terrace Park have been well aware of Council’s intention to relocate these non-compliant sites off the eroding, degraded riverbank and many have vacated through natural attrition. Council’s new licence agreement ensures all 15 remaining tenants will be relocated within the park and all costs associated with the relocation will be met by North Coast Holiday Parks (NCHP). Surely this is a fair and reasonable outcome for park residents who are entitled to 90 days’ notice. Private renters are given just 60 days to vacate. Cr Dey’s suggestion that park residents be given an additional 5–10 years’ notice is without

precedent and merely panders to the unwarranted hysteria (Letters, January 1). Remediation works along the foreshore are long overdue and residents have every opportunity to work with park management to negotiate preferred alternate sites in the new plans of management. Council would better serve all park residents by insisting 30 per cent of sites in each caravan park are retained for permanent residency as permitted in LGA legislation, instead of allowing the ongoing reduction in permanent sites as has occurred under NCHP management. Cr Dey has also sought to reduce the additional 10m of Terrace road reserve retained for road improvements, car parking and a bike path in the proposed new licence. The safety of school children and amenity of local residents is clearly not a major priority for our new Council. Unfortunately neither NCHP or DOL has ever been able to provide any properly surveyed maps of the caravan parks! BSC’s proposed licence agreement also retains Ferry foreshore and boat ramp for

public use and excludes Riverside Crescent from the operational area of the caravan park. DOL has acquired the Old Pacific Highway site and the 2010 POM included an additional 12,000m2 of public land within Ferry Reserve Caravan Park, more than adequately compensating for the loss of 24 foreshore sites. Cr Dey’s motion excludes the new additions for no apparent reason, allows camping on the foreshore during peak holiday periods, when it is most needed as open recreational space, and ‘yields up’ Riverside Crescent which the POM proposes closing with boomgates, restricting public access to the Ferry boat ramp and foreshore. A no-win outcome for both NCHP and the community. Closing the roadway is not a panacea to non-compliance issues and councillors should be aware NCHP installed the non-compliant cabin precinct in Ferry Reserve with BSC and DOL approval during Cr Dey’s previous term on Council. For the record, NCHP was appointed to manage Byron Shire’s Crown reserve caravan parks by DOL in 2000. North Coast Accommodation Trust

was appointed park administrators by DOL in 2007, when BSC Reserve Trust proved less cooperative. No tender process was implemented and Council has had little control over park management who clearly receive their orders directly from DOL. The avarice and ruthlessness of DOL cannot be underestimated. Over $3.8 million of road-reserve lands has been forcibly acquired and Council has received no compensation, nor any revenue from the caravan parks since the NCAT takeover. It is imperative some small morsels of foreshore lands are retained for public use outside the operational area of the caravan parks, as reports suggest they may soon be privatised or sold off. Cr Dey’s attempts to ‘clarify’ caravan park boundaries have unfortunately undermined Council’s proposed licence conditions and the community’s preferred outcomes. We urge all concerned residents to respectfully request Council reconsider their decision before this highly prized public land is lost forever.

this forum for discussion gives us a wide view of our shire. I appreciate those who take the time and effort and who have the courage to share their thoughts with others, free.

Of course there is no guarantee that they will print your letter but if they do, take it from me, it’s quite a thrill.

stumbled upon three suitably hooded yoofs, lurking, loitering and casing out my absent neighbour’s house. Perhaps they were just hungry and after the biscuits but they ran off with nothing down the street. I followed them and saw where they went and discovered in the process that one of them seemed to have been caught short, and had deposited a steaming hot Richard the Third on the roadway of our prim-and-proper cul-de-sac.

I am pleased that Phil Townsend is no longer a virgin to the letters to the editor in our beloved Echo (Letters, January 1); however I don’t think he needed to justify his desire to write with his preface saying that those who express themselves through the letters section are opinionated. Everyone has opinions, except automatons, and to express an opinion doesn’t mean you’re opinionated. By saying as much you not only knock those who do write but also discourage those who would like to write. The opportunity of free speech is extremely valuable and not to be flippantly undermined.

Film Festival highlight: Suspended EVERY YEAR AUSTRALIA’S PRE-EMINENT SHORT-FILM FESTIVAL, FLICKERFEST, SHOWCASES THE BEST IN LOCAL, AUSTRALIAN AND INTERNATIONAL SHORT FILMS IN THE COUNTRY’S ONLY ACADEMY AWARDS-ACCREDITED SCREENING. Short film offers new and aspiring directors the chance to show their craft alongside established industry names. One such director is Damian Walshe-Howling, an actor who decided to go behind the scenes. His screen credits include Underbelly (for which he won an AFI award), Secret Life of Us, The Reef, and He Died with a Felafel in His Hand. His second film, Suspended, will be screening at this year’s event. ‘I grew up in the theatre industry,’ said Walshe-Howling. ‘Mum is an actress, and I started working myself about 1989 as a professional actor. ‘I remember being on set and being told to go home, and I’d stay and watch what was going on. I was fascinated by the process.’ Storytelling is key, he believes, but what is most interesting is not the story itself, but how you choose to tell it. ‘That has been my main interest since I was a kid. Initially it was to be an actor, but the real passion underneath that was to be a storyteller. ‘The story in Suspended came from a moment in my childhood. I remember sitting around on a verandah and this adult telling me we could catch lightning in a jar. It was such a vicious storm; Dad told me it was the most fierce he’d ever seen, and here were all these kids standing out in it with jars. The milieu of the story I am telling in Suspended is about a kid growing up in a bohemian family of that time and that culture of smoking dope, playing music, open relationships.’ Where feature films can often get bogged in long plot expositions, short film has to get in there fast, telling story from the very first frame. ‘What we tried to do in Suspended was open up that other side of imagination or perception, the part you can’t explain with words – you can only feel it‌’ Very often the best stories are told with a minimum of dialogue. ‘That’s how I like to make films. There was a bit of talking in my first film, not a lot. I prefer it as an actor as well; it is a visual medium after all.’ When it came to the casting, Damian attributes his

choice of the boy who played Finn as the most crucial. He wasn’t an actor. ‘Finn had never worked before. I saw him when we were having lunch – it was his look. I knew whatever kid was going to play this role the audience had to fall in love with him. He was eating a hamburger; he was very much himself. He could sit and just listen. He was just seven at the time; when we shot it when he was eight. I just saw him and he had something that I knew would translate well on film. Ewan Leslie (who plays his dad in the film) was like Jesus! It’s like looking through a pane of glass!’ Suspended is an interesting mix of understated performances filmed in an epic format. Damian clearly got the casting right. ‘There was Damon who played the blind guy – I actually wrote the role for him – he was just a very feeling person, he just moved in that way. I introduced him to a blind friend I grew up with as a kid and he got it. As for Ewan I just love his work The Slap. I said to him, I’ve never seen you play this role before, as the dad. He’s that sort of guy you want to be around because he’s hedonistic, but he’s also incredibly selfish. Then Leanna, who played the mother, I have always wanted to work with her. My DOP Denson Baker was a genius. We spent a year discussion the vision. It’s very much written into the script and he totally wanted to do it. In fact he just won a Gold at the ACS Awards for it.’ Walshe-Howling shot the film in this region. The location was as much a part of the story as the actors. ‘We shot it between Kingscliff and Murwillumbah on an old avocado farm up there – Duranbah. It took six days and it was a totally magical experience. One of the cinematic keys to Suspended was light.

‘It was exactly what I had written as the key to this is about a kid’s enlightenment. I wanted light to fringe every shot, everything in wide angle, because I wanted everything to have a subliminal thing of epicness, to show a boy drowning in his own world; he is the darkness, and his world is light. It’s that feeling of how you think things were. I remember thinking Luna Park was huge, but I went back as an adult and it was so much smaller.’ As an aspiring filmmaker Damian credits the mentorship of friend and director Fred Schepisi as crucial in helping him define his ideas. ‘I did a director’s attachment with Fred Schepisi on Eye of the Storm about two years ago; he has been a mentor for a very long time. He is just about to make another film in Canada. He is continually working and he is so giving and he threw his two cents in in terms of advice on the script and the edit.’ Walshe-Howling is keen to move into feature film and is currently working on a script, but he believes, as many in the industry do, that exciting things are happening in TV as well. ‘The industry has changed a lot. I am excited where TV is going; it is following America. We need to nurture our industry. There’s been some great programming: Puberty Blues, The Slap, Underbelly ‌’ ‘We all challenge ourselves to tell stories in different ways; we don’t have to shoot the same place every time. As for Suspended, how could you not want to shoot in that place in northern NSW? It’s one of my favourite in the world. To see from Belongil to Mt Warning – it’s just a challenge to try to take that in and show it!’ Flickerfest A&I Hall, Bangalow, 25–27 Jan. Doors open at 7.30pm, films 8.30pm.

AGE GETS UP YOUR NOSE This week I turn 45. It’s weird, I don’t really think about age that much, it just seems like an arbitrary number that ticks by as the body decomposes. I have never been one of those women who lies about their age. I think that lying about your age is stupid, but if I was one of those people who lied about my age I’d make myself older so onlookers would coo ‘wow you look amazing for 75’. I actually like getting older. I have a confidence now I never had 20 years ago, which is ironic considering I no longer have many goods worth marketing. While I miss the smooth skin I once had that I now see stretched tightly over my daughter’s beautiful faces, I have come to terms with the crinkling. I thought ageing was going to be a gradual process, but it feels like I go to sleep and I wake up and something has grown, fallen off or burst. I don’t ever remember getting eye wrinkles. I just woke up one day and there they were. I am particularly fond of the crows’ feet around my eyes, etched from laughing and squinting. I think it makes me look like I’m a friendly person, or a bit short-sighted. I’ve always had very small close-set eyes anyway; now it seems they are disappearing entirely. I remember with fondness how

PETE MURRAY’S BYRON SESSIONS Pete Murray, one of Australia’s most loved singer/songwriters has revisited the brilliant album Blue Sky Blue on his latest project, The Byron Sessions featuring songs from an album that Pete loves, infused with the flavour and friendships from his adopted hometown of Byron Bay. Musicians who we have all come to love lend their talents to Pete’s songs, creating a mesmerising sound that is familiar yet refreshing. Thursday 24 January at the Byron Brewery. Ticket info: www.oztix.com.au 1300 762 545.

my grandmother described my eyes: ‘like two pissholes in the snow’ or ‘two burnt holes in a blanket.’ I think I developed my rock-solid self esteem as some sort of protection from such unkind metaphors. I am quite pleased with the results of gravity. I am glad I am not growing the head of an angry old arsehole. That’s the true crime of Botox – you can no longer tell who the pricks are as they’ve erased all evidence. Some wrinkles are actually quite pleasing. I have smile lines tracing my cheeks, which is good, too. I don’t have frown lines, which is a good sign considering I am so neurotic. I’m not keen on the broken capillaries. Or the surface veins that seem to be appearing on my legs. I had no idea that my pegs were going to be sporting this blue-and-red scribble, like I’d come off the loser in a fight with a biro. I’m a cleanskin when it comes to tattoos, but it seems that nature is giving me the leg sleeve. I’ve noticed a definite flattening and drooping of the arse. I am so glad god put it on the back so I don’t have to look. My neck is so stiff I can’t even turn that far around any more. I also seem to have developed nostril hair. It’s genetic. I remember my grandmother, a petite and elegant woman with a penchant for nasty phrases about girls with small eyes, having these rather massive tufts of nose hair. As a child I lived in fear of her nasal blackness. It never occurred to me that I was in fact looking into the abyss of my own future nose. It’s funny how you don’t notice these things about yourself until someone tells you. I had no idea I was sporting a nasal-hair prob-

lem until a friend of mine said ‘If I was you I’d do something about that visible nasal hair.’ I was shocked. Visible nasal hair? I didn’t think people were supposed to say things like that, I thought it was just the kind of stuff you were supposed to think. How long had people been exposed to my hairy nasal cavity? Was this something I was just going to have to live with? I tried plucking. It was so painful I gave up after two plucks. I tried bleaching, but instead of a few black hairs protruding like flies’ legs, I had spidery blonde ones. And you have no idea how out of it you get having peroxide burning into your nasal cavity. I tried plaiting, hair gel, scissors, sticky tape, a brush cutter. I even considered the hijab. In fact this whole covering-up thing just starts to look like a really neat way of dealing with all those high-maintenance areas. Fortunately we have these people called beauticians who are prepared to remove hair from any unwanted crack or crevice. They are like saints. I now have my nasal hair waxed. It’s not just personal vanity, it’s for the greater good. While it’s off-putting having the beautician poke wax up my nose and rip hairs from their roots it’s preferable to the alternative. I can come to terms with my ageing face and body; I can’t however come to terms with looking a bit like Hercule Poirot.

It won’t be the first time the pair have gone side by side: Feadz and Kito teamed up earlier this year to release their joint EP Electric Empire on Ed Banger and they’ve got another on the way in December. With Feadz owning his signature electro sound and Kito bringing hip-hop, dub stuff to the table, the Electric Empire EP makes for a seriously catchy listen. La La Land on Thursday.

bluesfest news

A very Bonnie Slipstream How does this album differ from your previous releases? Probably the most significant difference is that part of the album was produced by Joe Henry. I’m a big fan of his writing and albums and love the work he’s done producing Allen Toussaint, Solomon Burke, and others. I already had a couple of his songs I wanted to

do and thought it would be great to call him and see if we might collaborate. Turns out he was thinking the same thing and when we finally got on the phone, that first call lasted over two hours! We found a couple of days when his usual players were available, including a new friend, the amazing Bill Frisell, with whom I’d been talking about working on something together. What started out as just an exploratory afternoon turned into two days and eight tracks. It was so great to just show up and sing, play guitar a bit with these great musicians, not producing and just having fun. It really jump-started my wanting to get back in the studio with my guys and put down the songs I’d been culling for a while. Slipstream was off and running! Why ‘Slipstream’? Are there particular themes or experiences that inspired the songwriting on this album? I’m so inspired and proud to carry on the styles of music I love, whether it’s reggae or a James Brown feel, ballads or the blues. I’m in the slipstream of those who came before me and I’m creating one for those behind me as well. As for themes, it’s more a process of finding songs that really speak to me at the moment. Which ones make it and how they fit together almost reveals itself more to me than the other way around. After all this time, it’s still a pretty mysterious process of intuition, luck and diligent searching more than anything plotted out. This marks your longest time between studio albums. What have you been up to over the last six years, and why was now the right time for you to release it? Well, once the last album ( Souls Alike, 2005) was out, we did a couple of years of touring, which also included recording some live tracks and interviews for an iTunes Originals album, the live DECADES Bonnie Raitt and Friends (Norah Jones, Ben Harper, Keb ‘Mo’ and Alison Krauss) CD/DVD, a Crossroads CMT special with Lyle Lovett, and then another national summer/fall tour with Taj Mahal, called the BonTaj Roulet, in 2009. During that time, my brother Steve, who’d been fighting brain cancer since 2001, unfortunately developed another tumour that seriously impaired his ability to care for himself. I took the time off to help oversee his care. He lost his fight in the spring of 2009 and, soon after, one of my best friends also passed away. After the loss of my parents a few years before, and then this, I knew I needed to take some time to grieve and heal. I took a year-long hiatus from working on anything related to a new album or touring to find some balance in the other areas of my life. It was a very worthwhile and restorative time.

BOOK REVIEWS Bring up the Bodies Hilary Mantel Review Mitchell

by

John

Winner of the 2012 prize, Hilary Mantel is the only woman to have won two Man Booker prizes. I loved Wolf Hall (her first winner) and therefore approached Bring Up the Bodies as a rather excited, even star-struck, groupie... ...and loved it! Bring Up the Bodies re-tells the story of Ann Boleyn’s demise through the eyes of Thomas Cromwell. Ann Boleyn’s ‘flaw’ is infidelity and the guilty men – ‘though perhaps not guilty as charged’ – are Mark Smeaton, a ‘suspiciously well-dressed musician’, ‘gentle’ Mr Norris, Henry’s chief bottom-wiper, the aristocrats William Brereton and Francis Weston, and the Queen’s own brother, George, whose tongue, his wife claimed, had been swirling in Anne Boleyn’s mouth. The book closes as the king, ‘like the minotaur, breaths unseen in a labyrinth of rooms’ while downriver the sword that comes down on the queen’s neck is ‘a sharp sigh or a sound like a whistle through a keyhole’, and her ‘flat little presence becomes a puddle of gore’. Mantel writes with such elegance, her work is breathtakingly beautiful. She

brings the period alive and the characters into a vibrant reality. In her depiction of Cromwell, Hilary Mantel single-handedly resurrects his reputation from Machiavellian ‘hit-man’ to hero of the working class. Stung by the brutal treatment and eventual execution of his mentor, Cardinal Wolsey, Cromwell metes out a rough form of justice on those involved in the attack on Wolsey. He seems quintessentially Australian to me – pragmatic, a bit rough, even brutal at times, but ultimately seeking to be fairness and justice. Bring Up the Bodies is a wonderful book.

Thanks for the Memories Cecelia Ahern Review by Kathryn Lyster I didn’t think I’d like this book, but I really, really did. Sometimes we need to give ourselves permission to read a book just because – because it’s lighthearted, or enjoyable, or fluff y and fun. Thanks for the Memories is sheer escapist chick-lit, and I love it for that. It’s not

What have you been listening to since your last album? How do you think Bon Iver, Kelly Clarkson, and Adele’s covers of your songs have affected your status with younger audiences? I like to stay current with what my close pals are doing – Jackson Browne, Bruce Hornsby, Mavis Staples, Joe Henry, Maia Sharp, Paul Brady, Jon Cleary – and the host of singer/songwriters who either contact me or are longtime friends whose songs I’ve cut before. Al Anderson, Gary Nicholson, Paul Brady and Randall Bramblett are some I’ve covered before whose songs are on Slipstream. Some other artists who knock me out are Richard Julian, Sarah Siskind, Dayna B Kurtz, Tony Scherr, and Terry Adams’s new NRBQ band. I listen to a lot of old-school jazz and blues, African, Indian and Celtic music and the scores of CDs and songs regularly sent to me for consideration on my new project. As for Adele, Justin (Bon Iver) and Kelly covering I Can’t Make You Love Me, I couldn’t be more thrilled and honoured. I’m a big fan of all three and really enjoyed connecting with Justin when they played a show in LA this past summer. There’s so much great music out there now, especially in the Americana format I tend to listen to. I’m really happy with the success of the Black Keys and some others that show real artistry and innovation. It’s great to hear so many young artists influenced by the same classic soul, blues, jazz and rock that means so much to me. If you were breaking into the business today, do you think it would be easier or more difficult than it was 40 years ago? I think that without the vibrant network of coffee houses and the college circuit, and the smaller number of new artists that characterised the early 70s, it might be harder. That said, getting the word out through YouTube and finding new ways to build buzz makes it a draw. There are more inexpensive, populist routes to getting your music and image out through the internet and indie labels and blogs, but wading through the explosion of new artists from nearly every format of music trying to break through is challenging. The other way is to try to get through to whoever signs new artists to indie labels or management – filtering those thousands of submissions is what A&R people and print journalists used to do – but with those options narrowing and disappearing, you’re more at the mercy of luck and who you know.

all pink and gooey; the protagonist Joyce is experiencing her own type of personal breakdown and trauma, but this is interwoven with a deliciously romantic sub-plot that was so intriguing I found myself skipping over words and sometimes over paragraphs because I was that desperate to see how it would all turn out. I’ll give you a hint: there’s a blood transfusion, then a mysterious stranger and a feeling about him that she just can’t put her finger on. A series of synchronicities that can’t be ignored bring Justin Hitchcock into her path again and again; he is handsome and intelligent, but there’s more to it than that. She knows him, but they’ve only just met. It seems we are universally fascinated with the notion of predestined love, of cosmic union and the quest for our perfect soul mate. Ahern offers a mindbending possibility here that defies scientific explanation, and expands our notion of what is possible. We get inside Justin’s head as well, providing a welcomed shift in perspective. Joyce’s ageing father is a wonderful, endearing character who adds his own dash of magic to the story. This is a modern fairytale, more surprising than

predictable. It inspires us to make note of who enters our lives, and to expand our appreciation for why they are here, and even how they got there. Cecelia Ahern’s new book One Hundred Names has just hit the shelves and I’m going out to get my copy. Who knows, I might even meet a mysterious stranger…

The Street Sweeper Elliot Perlman Reviewed by Jelena Zestic, age 16

Northwood Brian Falkner Review by S ophie Oakeshott, age 8, Port Macquarie Do you live in a balloon house? Can you talk to animals? Have you ever been lost in a mystical forest? Cecilia Undergarment does them all in the pages of Northwood by Brian Falkner. I chose to read Northwood because my mum suggested I might like it. She was right, I really loved it, and I think any girl between eight and 11 would also enjoy the great adventure of Cecilia and her lovable dog Rocky. I loved Northwood because it had lots of twists and surprises and a great end. My dad is now reading it because I kept talking about it. He seems to be enjoying it but he is taking a really long time. I recommend Northwood to all families. I am now looking forward to reading Brian Falkner’s Maddie West and the Tongue Taker, his latest release following the

The Street Sweeper is an effectively written novel that deals with the themes of memory, love, guilt, heroism and the extremes of racism. Through the interwoven and complex stories of an African American probationary janitor in a Manhattan hospital and an untenured Australian historian at Columbia University, the novel encompasses the struggle for civil rights in the United States and the Nazi crimes against humanity in Europe. With its wonderfully rich and engaging plot, Perlman is able to effectively combine history and fiction to confront the reader with a powerful and meaningful story that emphasises the struggle for justice and equality in the 21st century through juxtaposing this to the stories of Jewish people in the Holocaust. I would strongly recommend this novel for its resonating, compelling and thought-provoking storyline, but also for its eye-opening and deeply moving recount of the Holocaust from a perspective that most narratives have not yet exposed. I definitely struggled to put this book down!

Every year hopeful comedians around the country register for the Melbourne International Comedy Festival’s RAW comedy competition, MANDY NOLAN HOSTS THE hoping that they have ANNUAL RAW COMEDY the edge that will set them apart and see them COMPETITION AT THE BYRON rocketed to comedy stardom. SERVICES CLUB ON MONDAY One of the amazing thing 28 JANUARY about RAW though isn’t just the comics who make it; its the ones that don’t. Did you know that international comedy superstar Tim Minchin didn’t even win his heat? Astounding! It just goes to show that at a RAW comedy heat it’s not just the winners that you have to keep an eye on – anyone on the bill could be a diamond in the rough! For well over

M SAGITTARIUS: Sagittarians are masters of the casual throwaway remark, but this week insists on absolute awareness of verbal expression because what you say is definitely what you’re going to get. But align your speech with your deepest, most authentic integrity, then be prepared to watch magic happen… N CAPRICORN: If this week introduces you to eccentric people with unconventional ideas and outrageous behaviour, don’t dismiss their suggestions as too out there. Because the present planetary quartet in Capricorn is massing some awesome support for any new enterprises you’re inclined to embark on. O AQUARIUS: Celestial emphasis in your house of introspection implies a low-profile week of internal investigation you’d usually avoid. Which could release you from the weight of past mistakes, your own and others, by pinpointing who you need to clear the air with before you can move forward… P P ISCES: Eventually even the strongest resolutions wear thin. If you find yourself slipping back into bad habits this week’s insistence on commitment, obligation, responsibility and accountability blocks anything not in alignment with your soul purpose. So expect crisis, crossroads, turning points – forget comfy, accommodating, easy-peasy.

JENNI CARGILL-STRONG TELLS TALES FROM UNDER THE SEA AT THE TWEED RIVER ART GALLERY IN MURWILLUMBAH, SUNDAY a decade the Byron shire has been offering up their comedy hopefuls, with some interesting results. Every year Byron, a town with a population of not much over 10,000, has more registrations than most of the country’s other regional areas. In fact Hannah Gadsby, who most would know as the ‘lazy lesbian’ who appears with Adam Hills from time to time, did her first comedy performance ever in Byron Bay after a Mandy Nolan standup comedy course. In the very same year she went on to win RAW with the routine that she’d performed as her standup graduation. Local mum of twin boys Ellen Briggs also found herself on the hot seat when she made it to the national finals. So who will make it through this year? Mandy Nolan hosts RAW Comedy at the Byron Services Club on Monday 28 January at 8pm. Tix are $10 and are available on the door. With over 20 comics already registered, this is going to be one hell of a night!

Even in the wasteland of summer viewing, good old Aunty can be relied upon to find some quirky series. 1. Friday Night Dinner (ABC1, Friday, 8pm) focuses on an English Jewish family and stars Tamsin Greig of Black Books fame. There are lots of episodes on YouTube. 2. Hebburn (ABC1, Saturday, 8.20pm) finds a recently married couple ensnared in the English equivalent of Bogansville, Tyneside. Summary at www.comedy.co.uk/guide/tv/hebburn. One show which came and went too quickly is Portlandia. In one episode Kyle McLachlan of Twin Peaks fame plays the local mayor. The usual cast of two, Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein, project their own weird view of a fictional Portland, Oregon. See www.ifc.com/shows/portlandia.

cinema reviews Hitchcock After unprecedented promotion and shortly before the premiere of Psycho, Anthony Hopkins’s Alfred Hitchcock remarks that people will flock to picture theatres in droves, ‘like lambs to the slaughter’. The line, an obvious reference to Silence Of The Lambs, is overdue and inevitable, for Hopkins portrays Hitchcock as Hannibal Lecter in a not very convincing fat-suit. The movie is about the ‘master of suspense’, but there is oddly little of that ingredient in an otherwise thoroughly enjoyable

outing. Similar but far superior to My Week With Marilyn, it is a fanzine film in which we are indulged with a fly-on-thewall view of the great director during the genesis and making of Psycho, his classic thriller. The central motif is the now iconic shower scene (has anybody not seen it?), with a lot of pop psychology employed to inform it, including the suggestion that Hitch’s relationship with his talented but unheralded wife Alma Reville (Helen Mirren), strained at the time, contributed significantly to the shocking violence of the stabbing.

Whether it’s true or not, the ‘take’, with Scarlett Johansson cast as Janet Leigh, is horribly thrilling. It is called on again for the climactic, heart-in-mouth moment when unsuspecting audiences are exposed to it for the first time – it’s a fantastic depiction of early-sixties middleAmerica being scared out of its wits. Hopkins sleepwalks through the part, doing a commendable impersonation at the beginning and end, when speaking to camera, but Mirren, as we’ve come to expect, gives real depth to Alma. Johansson and Jessica Biel, as the sisters in Psycho, effortlessly ooze the femme-fatale allure that Hitchcock was so susceptible to, while James D’Arcy is an uncanny Anthony Perkins. As a study of an artist who, though lauded for his achievements, is nevertheless plagued by selfdoubt and the dark complexities of his own imagination, it is a bit light-on, but for cine-buffs who unashamedly love the lore and the goss and the selfperpetuating mythology of the big screen, it’s not to be missed. ~ John Campbell

frequently heroes with feet of clay. From Sam Spade to JJ Gittes to Jo Nesbø’s Harry Hole and Robert G Barrett’s larrikin Les Norton, they are characters with whom we can identify for their not-infrequent falls from grace. Not here. Cruise’s Reacher is a paragon, an outsider, a lone ranger unsullied by society’s grime – and boy, can he fight! He gets roped into a multiplemurder investigation when the Iraq vet who has been charged with the crime scrawls ‘get Jack Reacher’. The defence counsel, Helen (Rosamund Pike), blonde, beautiful and decked out in a tight black suit that highlights her legs and breasts, will ultimately find herself strapped to a chair in a room full of murderous villains as Jack slaughters his way to her eleventh-hour assistance – at one point he is armed only with a rock against an opponent with a high-powered semiautomatic rifle, but he’s just too good for the bad guy. Jack is also wittier than everybody else, a solid-gold chick magnet and can handle a souped-up Chevy like nobody’s business in the mandatory screeching car chase. Yes, the movie is a Reacher This is produced by Tom Cruise – crass exploitation of dumb male his name is the first thing we see fantasies, but that was a given. It is also high gloss in execution, – so its being an overweening vanity piece should not surprise. cleverly plotted, perfectly paced and entirely unencumbered Gumshoes and crime fighters, by any foolish inclination to particularly those created over-estimate the intelligence by novelists (Reacher is from of its market. Pike is there to the pages of Lee Child), are flatter Cruise’s ego, which defies measurement, but there are worthwhile minor contributions from the old dog Robert Duvall and delightful up-and-comer Alexia Fast. A vigilante with a gun and a dispassionate resolve to mete out summary justice to anybody who operates outside his strict moral code – does it ring a bell? Make no mistake, it was Jack Reacher who shot Malala Yousufzai in the head. ~ John Campbell

of each other’s feelings, it is Patrick who effortlessly finds himself at the heart of the film. Miller has managed a 180-degree turnaround since we last saw him as the hateful son in We Need To Talk About Kevin. As Patrick, an out-there gay boy who is nonetheless aware of the prejudices he will always confront, he chaperones Charlie and Sam through their tumultuous year together. Freed by writer/director Stephen Chbosky from the contemporary curse of aggressive worldliness, the youngsters are neither foul-mouthed nor smart-arsed, without being impossibly goody-goody – a terrific segue that has Charlie taking

a communion wafer onto his tongue and then dropping a tab of acid sees to that. What eventuates, ever so subtly, is that you can’t help but care about these kids while, through the device of Charlie’s writing letters to his dead friend, there is created (for the older viewer) an almost Proustian sense of days lost. I was with them when they drove through the tunnel with Bowie’s Heroes blaring and I believed Sam explicitly when she told Charlie that he should be loved by the first girl who kisses him. Unassuming and unfashionably (almost heretically) sweet-natured, this is a romance true and timeless. ~ John Campbell TUESDAY

The Perks Of Being A Wallflower The magic of cinema occurs when an emotional contract – binding and absolute – is established between the audience and the characters they are watching on screen. It doesn’t happen at every outing, and when it does its source is often unexpected. Such was my experience with this adorable movie. The wallflower in question is Charlie (Logan Lerman). Friendless in a new high school, he is also carrying some repressed psychological baggage that we are made aware of through a series of brief and puzzling flashbacks. Meanwhile, he becomes mates with a couple of seniors, Patrick (Ezra Miller) and Sam (Emma Stone). Accepted into their set, he embarks on the lessons of life that underpin all comingof-age flicks while, of course, falling in love (with Sam). Though the narrative orbits around Charlie and Sam and their uncertain understanding 30 January 15, 2013 The Byron Shire Echo

Spice It Up Thai is the reason why for the past five and a half years a large number of the local population who have no intention of playing golf drive out through town to the club. Up the stairs there‘s a choice between darkish interior dining room and verandah, whose outlook is all manicured emerald fairway, trees and mountains gently rearing up in the distance. On this blazingly hot midsummer afternoon there are few golfers around and the vibrant green all around us is soothing to the senses. It all started, Matt is telling me now, at the River Thai restaurant in Brunswick Heads, site of the original Fins. He was 17 and a Mullumbimby boy who for as long as he could remember had always wanted to be a chef. ‘This was the start of my apprenticeship‘, he says. ‘My mother and my aunt inspired me – they inspired me to get into food. From the start when I was young I used to love being really organised before I put anything together – even making cakes I used to be really pedantic getting everything ready.‘ And so he plunged into the world of Thai cuisine, unlike anything he had ever experienced before. ‘The tastes, the whole experience of learning about Thai food at that age – it was an explosion, especially as an Aussie Westerner. That just created a real love for cooking Thai, and it was really hard to go in other directions.‘

Dinner every evening 5.30-9.30pm

He quickly became firm friends with River Thai‘s owners, Arn and Peter, following them up to Red Hot Thai in Kingscliff, which they subsequently acquired after selling the Brunswick Heads place, and finishing his apprenticeship there. He worked there for a while as a fully qualified chef before feeling ready to open his own eatery. His ex-fiancee had found a tile shop back in Brunswick Heads which had closed down and, with the blessing of Peter and Arn, Matt moved in, building a restaurant from scratch on the premises where Rice now stands. That was the original Spice It Up, and he ran it for four years. ‘It was a journey‘, he smiles. ‘I made money, I spent it. I was young, enjoying life, the surf was thereâ€Śâ€˜ Having sold it he then set off travelling – surfing in Bali, odd jobs in Brisbane and Sydney and Moreton Bay, Europe for cooking stints. He was in Thailand in 2005 working for his old mate Arn at Arn‘s latest restaurant Saffron by the Sea when he met Elle in the 7-Eleven, and ‘just got drawn to her.‘ A year later he brought her back to Mullumbimby and married her. Matt knew he wanted to get serious about having his own restaurant again; the prospect of doing something at the Golf Club was suggested to him, and in July 2006 he flung the doors open. Right from the first night when they did 80 covers and most were his old Brunswick regulars it has been a hit : Matt‘s fantastic, authentic renditions of Thai food, his personable nature, his ability to attract and keep superb (and always local) staff and kitchen crew. He loves it and – aren‘t we lucky – he‘s in no hurry to go anywhere.

Apology to Byron Bay Beach Shades and Sunny Reef Beach Shades In last week’s newspaper The Echo accidentally used an image of a Sunny Reef Beach Shade to illustrate a feature in which an advertisement for Byron Bay Beach Shades appeared. It was careless of The Echo to make such a mistake and we regret any confusion and distress it may have caused.

year for the event to be hosted by South West Rocks SLSC. In 2014 and 2015 the championships move south to Mollymook. Surf Life Saving NSW surf sports manager Dan Pearce says the South West Rocks club, local community and Kempsey Shire Council have all been great supporters of the event over the last four years. ‘For a small club, the team of volunteers from South West Rocks has done an amazing job staging an event of this size,’ said Pearce. ‘The thousands of competitors and their families have had a fantastic time up here and it will be sad to leave. The council has also gone all out to assist wherever possible and overall I think it’s been great for the local community and the region.’ Team results were: 1 Byron Bay Surf Life Saving Club 863; 2 Cudgen Headland 682; 3 Coffs Harbour SLSC 461; 4 Tacking Point SLSC 393.5; 5 Warilla Barrack Point SLSC 392; 6 Sawtell SLSC Inc 386; 7 Lennox Head-Alstonville SLSC 364; 8 Wauchope Bonny Hills SLSC 348; 9 Port Macquarie Surf Life Saving 315.5; 10 Shellharbour Surf Life Saving Club 224; 11 South West Rocks SLSC 213; 12 Yamba Surf Life Sav-

learning the fundamentals of golf at the same time. The 30 kids were all from within the Byron shire and most have attended a golf session with either Nicole Picken, the Club Golf Pro at Mullumbimby or Chris Graham, the Pro from Ocean Shores Golf Club, or one of the many school sessions which they have run over the past year. Nicole and Chris believe it is very important to work on the kids’ basic fundamental movement skills, ie catching, throwing, running, skipping etc, which is why they spend the first 20 minutes of the session working on these skills, kicking footballs throwing and catching. Along with a lot of laughter. ‘It is really important that we continue to encourage and expose kids to the game of golf as they are the future of our clubs’, said Nicole Picken. The day was a massive success; the kids all went home with full stomachs, free hats, balls, junior golf books and a better understanding of the game. Mullumbimby golf course hopes to run more junior events during 2013. Nicole and Chris both run junior days during the school year and can be contacted at their clubs or online.

Interactive training for safer, fairer and inclusive sport Two new interactive training courses are now available online to help create safer, fairer and more inclusive environments for all people involved in sport, according to Australian Sports Commission (ASC) chief executive officer, Simon Hollingsworth. The Member Protection Information Officer (MPIO) and Complaint Handling courses have been developed through the Play by the Rules partnership and complement the existing ‘Child Protection’ and ‘Discrimination and Harassment’ modules that are also available online. ‘Member Protection Information Officers are an important resource in sport,’ Mr Hollingsworth said. ‘They are responsible for providing information and support regarding a person’s rights, responsibilities and options when a complaint or concern is raised in any sports environment. ‘This new training package will ensure that the knowledge and expertise required for this role are fully supported and maintained.’ The MPIO course features seven online modules: MPIO Introduction, MPIO Role, Complaint Resolution Procedures, Member Protection and

the Law, Child Protection, Harassment and Discrimination, and Ethical and Practical Considerations. The course also includes a three-hour face-toface workshop, which will be delivered through state/territory departments of sport and recreation. The Complaint Handling course features more specific information about the complaints process, including how to mediate and investigate complaints. Play by the Rules co-chairs Craig Martin and Helen Szoke said: ‘These courses will assist sport to manage and resolve member issues and concerns. The greatest value will be in the development of expertise that can promote and create a positive club/sport culture for current and future members.’ All courses have been developed in consultation with sports experts who work in these areas. The courses are succinct, user-friendly and feature case studies, practical scenarios and incorporate the latest interactive technology.

Tallowood Ridge throws its first party The first get-together was held recently for Tallowood Ridge residents, with current and future residents gathering in the community park to celebrate Christmas and welcome in the new year. ‘The party was great,’ said

Mark Evans, pictured, who has purchased lot 2 in Tallowood Ridge with his partner. ‘We are not living on-site yet so it was great to meet the neighbours. ‘We are just looking forward to living in a community where we can build something together.

It’s really exciting for us to finally move somewhere where we can actually feel part of the community.’ Close to 40 people attended the gathering, enjoying a barbecue put on by owners. ‘This is the start of real

In welcome news for NSW house hunters, new housing approvals have increased significantly since the government’s March 2011 election. ‘A prime focus of the NSW government has been to increase new housing coming onto the market and [new] ABS figures confirm dramatic improvements since the March 2011 election,’ planning and infrastructure minister Brad Hazzard said. ‘During Labor’s last five years in office, monthly approval figures averaged just 2,578 dwellings, leading to massive upward price pressures and frustration for prospective home buyers. ‘Since the March 2011 election, monthly approval figures have

As a couple of our eagle-eyed readers have pointed out, Les Misérables is a musical by Boublil and Schönberg, not Andrew Lloyd Webber as stated in a film review last week. Our reviewer has been sent to a Quentin Tarantino/Coen Bros festival as penance. Q Q Q Q

The SMH reports that users of methamphetamine, or ‘ice’, are five times likelier to suffer psychotic symptoms while taking the drug, according to a new Australian study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association Psychiatry. The study’s lead author, Dr Rebecca McKetin, said that ‘there have always been questions about causality from those who say methamphetamine users aren’t “turned mad” by the drug but have a pre-existing psychotic condition. What’s unique about this study is that it excludes those users and still finds such a strong link between use and psychotic symptoms in a large

cohort over a period of years’. Find out more at http://bit.ly/ UZMNFd. Q Q Q Q

As we reported in Echonetdaily, the UK Institution of Mechanical Engineers has produced a report which states that as much as half of all the food produced in the world – two billion tonnes’ worth – ends up being thrown away. The waste is caused by poor infrastructure and storage facilities, over-strict sell-by dates, ‘getone-free’ offers, and consumer fussiness. The report also notes that around 550 billion cubic metres of water is used to grow crops that never reach the consumer, and producing one kilogram of meat is said to take 20 to 50 times more water than producing the same weight of vegetables. You can download the report from www.imeche. org/Home. It might be a stretch of the imagination to describe some of the food in the ‘getone-free’ offers as actual food containing nutritional value.

...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.

<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
