Surfer rescues swimmer

Hanging out for a cause

A drowning tragedy was narrowly averted last Thursday at the notorious New Brighton beach after a young surfer managed to pluck a woman in her 20s from rough conditions. Resident Jason Milham told The Echo that he ran back to grab his boogie board after he saw the woman in trouble. ‘It was pretty rough – around four to five feet.’ He said that as he had been surfing there the previous day, he knew where to find the rip. ‘It was the same rip that she got taken out in,’ he said. After he reached the woman, he said she was quite calm even though she said she couldn’t paddle any more. ‘We talked about other things as we paddled in.’ As for warning signs, he said many have fallen into the dunes or washed away after recent storm events. ‘There’s always a big rip there and it can be very dangerous,’ he said. Resident Roma Boulton told The Echo that ‘Jason risked his life and saved hers! It is really distressing that I have already witnessed a dead body Ella Whan, Eva Brooke and Sophie Paskin were amongst the 300 or so people who joined cancer survivors and their at New Brighton beach and Thursday carers at last weekend’s Relay for Life at the Mullumbimby football grounds. This year’s relay has so far raised nearly $28,000. Photo Jeff Dawson it nearly happened again.’

Gay marriage boon for Byron? Hans Lovejoy

Same sex couples will soon be able to be ‘married’ in Byron Shire. While only symbolic, Byron Council’s vote to declare itself a supporter of marriage equality at last Thursday’s Council meeting will surely be cause for optimism to those seeking to have the same marriage rights as a man and a woman. The latest attempt to amend Australia’s marriage act was voted down 98 votes to 42 in federal parliament last September and gay marriage remains unrecognised. Among the proposals nutted out at the meeting, Byron Shire certificates of same sex marriage will become available and ceremonies will be encouraged within the Shire. Crs Chris Cubis, Rose Wanchap and Alan Hunter voted against. Mayor Simon Richardson, who moved the motion, said, ‘While it may be symbolic, we have an opportunity to lead within Australia and it’s time to take a stance’. continued on page 5

Kentucky Fried Chicken plans rejected Hans Lovejoy

The bid to open a KFC in Byron’s CBD was knocked back Thursday after seven of the nine councillors voted with staff recommendations to reject the proposal over insufficient car parking (Crs Hunter and Woods against). During morning public access, Byron United (business chamber) president Paul Waters spoke against the application, along with another business owner. ‘It’s a bad fit with Byron, especially as this is renowned as a health and wellbeing region,’ he said. Other issues included large street

signage, which would have required tree removal, and lack of toilet facilities. The high profile proposed development sparked a petition with more than 4,000 signatures opposing it, collated and submitted by resident Simon Seven. Of 350 individual submissions sent to Council, just two supported the KFC.

4,000 signatures against As for Council’s debate later in the day, it was chaired by deputy mayor Di Woods after mayor Simon Richardson declared a non-pecuniary interest. Cr Richardson had been a vocal campaigner against the devel-

opment, which was proposed for the former Byron Music building, situated south of the Byron Woolies. On taking the chair, Cr Woods asked councillors to defer the matter so the applicant could discuss the parking issue with staff. ‘I don’t see myself going there to eat that type of food, but we need to give them the opportunity to negotiate,’ she said. Cr Woods warned against repeating the legal proceedings involving Mullumbimby Woolworths in which the retail giant took Council to the Land and Environment Court after refusal of their application, and eventually won. ‘I don’t want to go

through that again,’ she said. But staff appeared confident. Planning chief Ray Darney said when asked about the parking, ‘We have done our sums’; however he said the applicant was ‘contesting our figures’.

Staff confident ‘Council have written to the applicant about the parking,’ he said, and with regard to Council’s report, ‘our development control plan [DCP] can be defended’. In the middle of Cr Duncan Dey’s speech against, a man from the gallery – presumably the applicant – interjected. ‘The calculations [on park-

ing] are wrong!’ he bellowed. In an aggressive manner, the middle aged man in the back row demanded to address Council. It was then that the usually quietly spoken council watcher Jim Beatson, also in the gallery, responded with, ‘Can we eject this yob from the gallery?’ After the yabber yabber subsided, Cr Alan Hunter made his case for allowing the development. ‘This is like Woolies again,’ he said. ‘These guys have got the resources and experience; however, that’s not a reason to be frightened. It wouldn’t be in their interest not to have enough car parks.’ continued on page 2

Economics of happiness wraps Speakers from more than 12 countries converged at Byron’s Community Centre on the weekend to hear of the benefits of localising your economy. With workshops and entertainment, the event drew crowds from afar. Sixteen year old Sydney resident Henry Coleman told The Echo he came up especially for the event, and said he wanted to be able to articulate the issues, ‘and see people I really respect.’ Pro surfer Dave Rastovich told The Echo that while he was invited to speak at the event he was there more to listen,

With Channel Nine’s A Current Affair crews mysteriously arriving along with officers from the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing (OLGR) at Byron Bay over the weekend, one could be mistaken for thinking there was a blitz of some description taking place. And while there were reports of increased police numbers, Tweed Byron crime manager Inspector Saul Wiseman said it was incorrect. ‘It was a pretty good weekend in Byron,’ Inspector Wiseman told The Echo.

‘There were no reported alcohol related assaults and only a handful of street offences. At this time, that’s really positive.’ But chairwoman of the Byron Bay Liquor Accord, Hannah Spalding, told The Echo that local licensees noticed more police in town. ‘Licensees felt there was definitely a greater visual presence in the main street’, she said. ‘It may be they had the same numbers but they deployed them a in different way.’ A spokesperson from the OLGR told The Echo that its officers were up from Thursday to Saturday to meet with the Liquor Accord, police, Council and other stakeholders. ‘The meeting with the Accord

focused on the implementation of the voluntary terms, which take effect from March 21. ‘The Accord also indicated its willingness to implement ‘refusal of entry guidelines’ recently prepared by OLGR to assist licensed venues to deal with problem bar patrons.’

Quiet weekend Mrs Spalding agreed there was nothing unusual in the visit from the OLGR, who met with licensees to talk about the terms of the new trial proposal. ‘They wanted to get some clarity with terms of the new proposal and to ensure everyone was on the same page before the final date.’ She said that she had heard

that A Current Affair was in town and had let the police know that she was happy to speak to them, and to pass her number out, but she had not heard from them. Inspector Wiseman says he is waiting on word from the Byron Bay Liqour Accord in regards to some of the changes in the trial proposal. ‘We are just not quite clear on a few points’, he said. ‘We’ve been in communication over a couple of the key issues and we are waiting on a response before we make a comment.’ He added that Byron is still busy on the weekend. ‘We are still seeing a fair amount of activity but it was a quiet weekend from our point of view.’

Council staff asked to estimate costs on reports Hans Lovejoy

Cr Chris Cubis has thrown a cat among the pigeons after asking councillors ‘receive a staff report on the cost of resolutions brought before it in the past 12 months.’ Despite the notice of motion (NOM) failing to gain enough votes at last Thursday’s meeting, (Crs Ibrahim, Dey, Richardson, Cameron, Wanchap and Spooner against), a foreshadowed motion by Crs Saul Ibrahim and Paul Spooner passed, which asks staff to provide Council with an estimate of the staff hours ‘for the preparation of each report when delivered to Council up to 30 June 2013.’ (Crs Cubis,

Woods, Richardson, Cameron voted against). During debate on the ‘Resolution Cost Report’, Cr Cubis said he wanted to know more about how much staff time and resources went into an average report. ‘I’m looking for a notional figure,’ he said. ‘There are reports that have come before us that could have been [dealt with by just] emailing each other. During debate, the arbitrary nature of how to calculate any given report was discussed, given there are so many variables. Cr Ibrahim, who foreshadowed a motion said, ‘We liberally ask for reports, and they come back in outstanding detail. ‘But we don’t know how

many hours that took. Was it worth it? Perhaps it could lead us to streamline reports [in the future].’ But perhaps the most revealing moment was when new general manager Ken Gainger reluctantly made a speech on his assessment of Council’s internal workings. ‘In the six weeks that I have been here, I have noted that a lot of time is being spent pushing pieces of paper around and not enough time is being spent addressing those key strategic issues of such vital importance to the community and the Council. I am progressively reviewing these practices in an effort to restore an appropriate balance in these activities.’

‘As there are really remarkable people here with great minds and beautiful hearts.’ A short video by Indian activist Vandana Shiva put it into perspective. She reflected on current events throughout the world, including the Wall Street and Europe’s currency meltdown. ‘There is no stability in the model that has been built,’ she said, ‘[It’s] at nature’s cost and people’s costs. ‘This is the time to redefine the economy and to put the John Seed at the Economics of happiness and wellbeing of Happiness conference. Photo Jeff ‘No Bull’ Dawson people and Earth first.’

He added that it wasn’t fair to refuse a discussion. Cr Paul Spooner also sided with Cr Woods, saying that the applicant hadn’t been provided enough of an opportunity for discussion. ‘A letter is a one way discussion,’ he said, referring to the letter of rejection that was sent. Cr Chris Cubis, a man never afraid to speak his mind, disagreed. ‘There is a difference of

<echowebsection=Local News>

opinion between staff and applicant. We shouldn’t keep deferring things. We expect staff to make correct decisions. No more talks.’ As acting mayor, the ball finally landed back in Cr Woods’s court. She spoke of her concern that the applicant’s letter and the assessment report were removed from agenda. ‘Their [point of] difference is on parking contributions.

The car park is pretty full. How can you create more parking in the area? You can’t. You make contributions for more parking elsewhere. But this looks like it’s about us not liking KFC. ‘I want a proper process.’ When the vote was taken, the aspiring fast food chicken entrepreneur stood up and strode out in disgust, muttering unflattering names to other members of the gallery as he left the chamber. www.echo.net.au

Bypass now earmarked for Browning Street Hans Lovejoy

Investigations are now underway into building a bypass to the corner of Browning and Jonson Streets in Byron Bay where Mitre 10 is located. Under the plans passed at last week’s Council meeting, Butler Street would be extended past Glenn Villa Resort and into a swamp area, turn left, cross the disused railway and then follow through the carpark at Wicked Weasel and the old Norco building. The decision is a departure from the previous councillors’ desired ‘mini’ bypass, which was to pass through the Railway Hotel carpark and exit out next to Legends Pizza near Woolworths.

Mayor Simon Richardson said he never thought he would recommend a bypass as he wasn’t ‘a fan of roads’. ‘The more [roads] you build the more cars you get,’ he said. However he voted for the proposal, which will see an amendment to the Byron Developer Contributions Plan 2012 being on public exhibition for 28 days. Additionally, funding will be sought from local state MP Don Page for ‘geotechnical land and ecological investigations’ to prepare a fully costed construction of the major bypass. Negotiations will also be sought with the developer of West Byron ‘to prepare a Voluntary Planning Agreement (VPA) and that these nego-

tiations incorporate the bypass and park and ride road infrastructure into the VPA.’ A budget of $50,000 will be funded ‘from existing section 94 funds held for Urban Roads as a potential contribution to the bypass.’ Deputy mayor Woods spoke against the idea. ‘Studies say 80 per cent [of traffic] is going in the town centre. This is the opposite to the study.’ But Cr Saul Ibrahim said, ‘The centre of Byron is not what it will be in 15 to 20 years. This is for the future.’ While that motion passed, (Crs Woods, Cameron and Hunter voted against), a foreshadowed motion also passed that asks staff to investigate park and ride services, rail and

cycle options. A staff and councillor workshop will be held ‘prior to the options report being tabled to Council.’ Crs Cubis, Woods and Hunter voted against the foreshadowed motion.

Meet the Greens candidate for Richmond The Greens have chosen Fingal Head community advocate Dawn Walker as their candidate for this year’s federal election. Ms Walker, the president of Fingal Head Community Association, will vie for the seat against Labor’s sitting Richmond MP Justine Elliott and the National Party’s Matthew Fraser, as well as other minor contenders. The new candidate’s credentials include being a regional grants consultant, a former small business policy adviser and environmental campaigner. ‘Working in the community I have seen first hand the many pressures on our region and I’m keen to hear from residents,

farmers and small businesses,’ she said. ‘This election has shone the spotlight on coal seam gas (CSG). Just last month federal Labor approved 110 new coal

WA Council acts on holiday lets Staff reporters

Byron Bay residents sick of being kept up all night by parties in nearby holiday let properties might be interested to find out that one council is taking action against the practice – in Western Australia. ABC Perth reports that the Shire of Busselton in the state’s southwest is preparing to make holiday home owners take more responsibility for those who rent them. The council wants owners of holiday rental homes to register their property, have the house inspected regularly and be on call 24 hours a day. The shire’s ‘lifestyle devel-

opment director’ Nigel Bancroft told the radio station last month that the move was prompted by a recent increase in the number of people letting out their holiday homes. ‘A lot of them are now really commercial enterprises,’ said Mr Bancroft. ‘They’re leased out on a regular basis for tourists to come in for the weekend and that does create quite a few issues with the shire.’ He also said that a state government policy position on planning approvals and permissions for holiday homes within local government areas was one of the reasons for the change.

seam gas wells in NSW, paving the way for a fivefold expansion of the industry. ‘The Nationals have also failed rural communities on this issue. We don’t need a squabble

between the two old parties on this critical issue, we need decisive action. ‘The recent bill to make water a trigger for federal intervention on coal seam gas mining approvals does not go far enough to protect our communities from this unproven industry.’ Ms Walker said that if elected to parliament, her first action will be to call for an urgent national moratorium on coal seam gas mining and introduce legislation to create blanket ‘CSG no go zones’ to, ‘protect our productive farmland, villages, cultural heritage sites, national parks and drinking water catchments from the potential harm of this high-risk industry.’

Byron becomes same sex marriage friendly continued from page 1

But Thursday’s debate was certainly not a unanimous vote for gay rights; Cr Hunter said while he appreciates the sentiment, ‘We need to consider what has happened in other places…’ He said Council needed to prioritise potholes and suggested that the idea should be put on public exhibition. ‘Is this a legal document? he asked. ‘Will they have any legal rights? This smacks of a political agenda; we haven’t got the money and we should fix the potholes.’

Invoking Jefferson Cr Basil Cameron, however, took the opportunity to invoke Thomas Jefferson to make his point that Byron should support same sex marriage. ‘The cornerstone of democracy is the pursuit of happiness and liberty,’ he said in his speech, which also referenced the Suffragettes and Rosa Parks. But deputy mayor Di Woods shared Cr Hunter’s sentiments. ‘I am uncomfortable with this,’ she said. ‘However I fully support it; I have members in my family that have lived together as a same sex couples.’ She said the issue was more about ‘rights to assets and bills [that] are left behind’ referring to when one of the couple dies. www.echo.net.au

‘It’s a federal and state responsibility, not ours,’ she said. She added she ‘felt abused’ by the proposal and that it amounted to ‘emotional blackmail’. Cr Paul Spooner was more optimistic, saying that while it’s a symbolic gesture and not legally binding, it won’t cost Council much to implement. He also told the gallery that Council has a responsibility to look after the community. ‘One of the biggest risks to young people in regional communities is feelings of alienation that come with being gay. These feelings can contribute to youth suicide,’ Cr Spooner said. ‘This is one small way in which we can support gay people and let them know they are embraced in our community.’ As for Cr Chris Cubis, he had reservations. ‘The motion would be better if it didn’t describe marriage, but a union.’ He said emails received on the matter questioned whether Council is being distracted from its core responsibilities, and agreed with Cr Woods that the motion deserved general support but should be tabled at a federal level. Cr Ibrahim talked about an email he received from someone outside the Shire that was against the idea. ‘It was full of nonsense – it was wrong…

and if availability permits, say Council. The costs for the registry and certificate will be paid for by the recipients. The motion also includes lobbying all local government areas in Australia, to ‘invite them to co-sign the “Proclamation of Local Government Support for Marriage Equality.”’ The community will also be invited to contribute text for the proclamation that, after coAustralians support it signing, will be forwarded to the As mayor Richardson prime minister. Crs Cubis, Wanpenned the motion, he was chap and Hunter voted against afforded the last word in the the motion. debate. ‘I’m sick of hearing the pothole issue like it’s something we can fix straight away. It’s not relevant to this. It’s more work for staff to put it on public exhibition. We need leadership now. ‘Two thirds of Australians support marriage equality… I have no doubt that this will be supported. Our residents are being discriminated against.’ Along with the marriage certificate, Council will also consider a ‘Love Garden’ whereby a tree is planted in a public space to record and celebrate a same sex marriage within Byron Shire. The mayor or another Council representative will present the marriage certificate at the ceremony if requested

‘We need to see gay couples being married. It needs to be on the news… there is nowhere better than Byron Bay to celebrate this. Eventually it will be no big deal.’ Cr Duncan Dey said public comments were unnecessary, and cheekily invited Cr Cubis to join the Green party, ‘Because we are the ones taking it to the federal government.’

Matt’s charity cycle across India Ballina resident Matt Brice is now in training for a 4,300km bicycle trek across India, all to raise money for the Australian Association of Forget Me Not Children’s Home Inc.

Local filmmaker seeks crowdfunding Filmmaker Darius Devas is seeking crowdfunding for a new surf film, Within. Devas describes the film as ‘a short film consisting of a series of images shot in the ocean and inside the barrel of a wave, from a camera strapped to the front of my board, shooting in super slow motion.’ ‘Inside the barrel, borders dissolve, time shifts and another reality opens. ‘The images will be accompanied by a spoken word narration that I will write, inspired by my favourite poets, including Henry David Thoreau, Hafiz, Rumi, Goethe, Rilke, Saul Williams and David Forster Wallace, enriching the visual expressions with a simple message of hope.’ See the crowdfunding site at http://www.indiegogo.com/ projects/within--4. www.echo.net.au

ous record, as he travels from Goa down to the southern tip of India, then up the east coast through Kolkata, and on to Varanasi. The expedition will be fully funded by Matt, with all sponsorship money and donations going direct to www.forgetmenot.org.au. This charity will then fund The Brighter Futures

Education Centre in New Delhi, which provides for children from the slum fringe in Noida, New Delhi.

Full moon family movie next Tuesday Inclement weather has so far delayed plans for the sunset cinema screening by the Byron Bay International Film Festival, but fear not! Under a full moon on Tuesday March 26, the free outdoor event will be held next to the Byron Bay Surf Club located on Main Beach. Entertainment starts from 6pm for a film start time of 7.15pm. Festival director J’aimee Skippon-Volke says the family-friendly film Inuk received a remarkable 22 International awards and is sure to touch a few hearts. It’s a heart-warming story with an all-Inuit cast, about a young man’s journey to reconnect with his cultural roots. ‘Surrounded by the beach and the full moon, the setting will be nothing short of magical,’ she said. Ms Skippon-Volke says that BBFF2013’s Sunset

The rare mistake has been described as an ‘oversight’ by the developers, their consultants and Tweed Shire Council planners in their rezoning proposal to boost the size of the sleepy village population at least tenfold, passed by

councillors last December. But a report going to council next Thursday detailing the stuff-up in the subdivision plan says talks between the family and the developers over the future of their house and land, including a buyout option, are ongoing. The rezoning proposal was opposed by Crs Bagnall and Ka-

Gold Coast Suns visit Byron this Friday Matt Lodge

Ten years ago, the Brisbane Lions were at the height of their powers, becoming the third club in history to win three consecutive premierships. So close to the northern rivers, the Lions were the AFL team to follow and so you can imagine the excitement of us 10-year-old kids when two Lions players made the trip to take a football clinic at Bangalow’s Shultz Oval – the first time we’d seen a real AFL footballer up close.

Fast-forward to today, and the northern rivers now has a new team to get very excited about and they’re only half the distance up the Pacific Highway. The Gold Coast Suns will be making the voyage down to actively participate in the inaugural AFL Northern Rivers Juniors Community sign-on day on Friday, March 22. As a young developing group entering their third year of the competition, the Suns have many stars to get excited about for season 2013. Up to 20 players will be

making the journey down the highway and will be on hand to give expert advice to help the youngsters with their footy and life in general. The AFL places a high priority on community engagement and an essential duty of players is to return to grassroots level to run local football clinics. As a former player for Carlton myself, clinics dealing exclusively with kids made your position as a footballer worthwhile‌ just seeing their smiles. This Friday gives an opportunity for the youngsters to

impress the top players with their footy skills, while obtaining as many autographs and photos as possible. Conversely, The Suns are looking to sign up new fans, while also encouraging more kids to play the Australian game locally. I urge the whole northern rivers AFL community to get down to Ewingsdale for an afternoon of immense fun this Friday from 4.30 to 7.30pm at the Byron Regional Sports and Cultural Complex.

Conroy’s bizarre war on himself and Murdoch Volume 27 #40

March 19, 2013

Reasons to be cheerful If you’re looking for an excuse to be happy, look no further than the events around the Byron Shire bubble last week. First up, the applicant from Tweed with deep fried KFC chicken dreams for Byron was refused by Council over a lack of parking. With any luck, this completely unwanted proposal will be sent to the dustbin like Dan Murphy’s failed mega booze outlet application. A big cheer should go out to our local representatives, the Byron Shire councillors, who also voted to support same sex marriage and asked the rest of Australia to please catch up. Nationally, the feds buckled on coal seam gas, as did the state government the previous week. The mining industry must be stopped from turning our food bowls into coal holes and this momentum must not be wasted. Implement renewables now. As we have witnessed, it is only through public pressure such as the blockades at Doubtful Creek near Kyogle and Glenugie near Grafton that change occurs. And to tie it all in, the weekend’s Economics Of Happiness conference reminded us that the current economic system fails to meet basic human needs – for everyone – but there are alternatives. Lastly, thank God the latest Catholic Pope does not look like a Nazi Sith Overlord like the last one, even though the rhetoric seems the same. Let’s call him Pope Lite for now. Hans Lovejoy, editor

Correction from last week Regarding last week’s editorial on the appalling corporate behaviour of Coca-Cola, The Echo has been advised that hemp foods have been approved by the organisation that determines what is safe to eat – the Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ). Communication and stakeholder engagement manager, Lorraine Belanger, told The Echo that, ‘FSANZ approved the application for [hemp foods] and the ministers responsible for food regulation in Australia have sought a review. A quick check of our website would have set the record straight,’ she said.

L

ast week Julia Gillard’s promise to legislate for penalty rates won her plenty of friends at the ACTU conference. And this was just as well because she’s going to need them; next day her communications minister Stephen Conroy declared total war on Rupert Murdoch and all his armies and, as it turned out, just about everyone else as well. And with Conroy’s declaration came an ultimatum: his media reforms are to be passed without amendments, no deals and no bartering, before parliament rises this week. And if they’re not, then he’ll… he’ll… well actually he’ll back off and forget about the whole thing. This bizarre threat produced an even more preposterous response from the Sun King’s courtiers, lackeys and minions, as it was no doubt intended to. The Sydney Daily Telegraph compared Conroy with tyrants including Stalin, Castro, Mao, Mugabe, Kim Jong-Un and Ahmadinejad – but surprisingly not the most loathed of all, Hitler. Could Rupert have a soft spot for the much maligned Adolf? And in The Australian, his local Ubergruppenfuhrer, Kim Williams, launched the full blitzkrieg: Conroy wanted a ‘Soviet-style Tsar’ to take unprecedented control of the media, he frothed. Well, actually the Tsar was not exactly Soviet-style; it was the Soviets, including Stalin, who removed the hated dictator. Perhaps he meant to say ‘commissar.’ But Williams, along with many of his fellow media types, was clearly a little over excited: Conroy’s proposals became nothing less than a challenge to free speech and an attack on the very basis of democracy. In fact a closer examination revealed that they were noth-

ing of the kind: if anything they were somewhat half-hearted and unlikely have much effect, at least in their present form. At worst, they might constitute a slight impediment to Murdoch, his editors and accountants being able to do and say anything and everything that they wanted and at best they might ensure that future takeovers did not extend already entrenched monopolies and force

the public interest, it is necessary to have the trust of the public, and that is something that is currently in very short supply across the political spectrum. Conroy’s proposal might not be sinister, but it sounded a bit like it, and not only to Labor’s sworn enemies; many who would normally be considered on the political left, such as civil libertarians and human rights activists also had

Before claiming to represent the public interest, it is necessary to have the trust of the public, and that is something that is currently in very short supply by Mungo MacCallum the print media to live up to its own self-imposed standards. Conroy’s ‘Tsar’ would in fact have considerably less power over the print media than ACMA already exerts over radio and television. But this was not the point: it was government regulation, an intrusion into the independence of the media, and everyone knew where that would end up – totalitarian political control! Admittedly Conroy’s choice of a name did not help – his new overseer was to be called the Public Interest Media Authority. Now ‘public interest’ is a phrase politicians should use with considerable caution. It was the American cynic Ambrose Bierce who, in his Devil’s Dictionary, defined politics as ‘a strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles; the conduct of public affairs for private advantage,’ and ever since an alert electorate has understood that politicians all too often confuse the public interest with their own. Before claiming to represent

were not bound by party rules. Certainly few of them feel any loyalty to Conroy; he is one of Gillard’s closest and tightest backers, but he is anything but popular in the wider party. Some years ago a reasonably friendly minister put it to me this way: ‘Oh, Stephen’s not really so bad – until you get to know him.’ Others would use more graphic and direct terms, and it is fair to say that the last week will not have improved their outlook. And it has certainly done nothing to reassure them that Gillard is in charge of the situation and knows what she is doing. There is another theory: this is not so much a conspiracy as a suicide bombing. Gillard knows she is gone for all money but will never surrender, either to Abbott or to Rudd. Instead she is launching a final kamikaze attack to inflict as much damage as possible on her enemies and make it harder for Abbott to clean up the wreckage. The problem with this reading is that even if Conroy can get his legislation through and put his authority in place before the election – neither of which is likely – it could all be reversed with the stroke of a pen. And while Gillard might be resigned to political obliteration, many of her followers would not appreciate being dragged into a mass suicide. At the very least she would be remembered badly in Labor history, which is certainly not her desire. So forget conspiracies and death-pacts; as usual the simple explanation is probably the right one. It’s just another stuffup. Are we really surprised?

their suspicions. In fact, so much antagonism had been aroused for so little potential political gain that some commentators started looking for a conspiracy. The legislation, they said, was deliberately designed to fail, so Gillard and Conroy could blame the opposition for backing the ruthless media moguls rather than the masses. Or perhaps it was a cunning distraction, a cause which would lock caucus in behind Gillard and frustrate any chance of a return to Kevin Rudd in the last, crucial week of pre-budget sitting. The problem with this last theory was that much of the caucus, indeed many within the ministry, were appalled at the way the whole thing had been handled. Craig Thomson, the exile who now sits as an independent but claims to still be a rusted on Labor supporter, says that he cannot and will not vote for it, and there is no Q See Mungo live at doubt that a great many of his former colleagues would like to exercise the same option if they www.echonetdaily.net.au

Justine, there is no coal or CSG in your electorate, a few minutes of Google research would tell you that! The Echo could explain why the Greens’ hero and emeritus scientist Professor James Lovelock, the man behind Gaia theory, who once predicted doom for our climate, is so completely in favour of unconventional gas/ CSG for the UK. Hidden facts like these, real science and carbon abatement don’t suit the Greens party’s real agenda, which is about squeezing the CSG issue to death to put bums on Senate seats.

Do you need legal advice?

Q I wish to thank Cr Rose Wanchap for the clarifications she made in her letter (Letters, March 12) regarding Council’s recent call for a report on the suitability of using rocks at Belongil Beach and other parts of the Shire. She mentions specialist engineers stating that the effect on the beach remains the same whatever material is used when creating barriers against the sea. Well, I’m no scientist or engineer, just a descendant from a pioneering family, but my own personal observations, as well as my readings on the subject, have led me to a very different conclusion. I am not alone in observing that rocks do have a destabilising impact on a beach. Rocks deflect the sand and push it elsewhere. The deepest water on any beach is always around a rock formation or before a rock wall. Currently there is little beach at the old Belongil spit. I would like to take you for a walk along that beach frontage, but we may have to wait out most of this year before this is once again possible. The only places where Belongil beach is approachable are at the three Council access areas – where sandbags have been placed instead of rocks! Yes, the rock walls and groynes in town have protect-

ed the carpark and swimming pool and led to an escalation of sand to the east of the surf club. Conversely, they have obliterated central Main Beach and caused significant erosion to the west and north. The once whole and continuous beach has effectively been split in two, a beach for play to the east and a dysfunctional broken beach to the west. A cautionary tale was expounded by Dr Norman Sanders in The Echo recently. The building of seawalls in California damaged further coastline and threatened coastal towns, leading to the extension of the walls, with building and maintenance costs escalating way out of proportion to the benefits achieved by the communities they were trying to protect. Surely everyone’s money is better spent researching alternative barrier protection works than rocks, protection which is genuinely interim, which has the ability to hold the sand and allow the beach to rebuild rapidly after storm events, and does not pollute the sea and wildlife. I’m sure such means exist. Meanwhile the sandbags placed by Council have been doing a pretty good job and the costs are known, not hidden amid future chaos.

No money required, no groynes, no erosion. It seems there is still some misunderstanding about proposed protective beach works in Byron Bay. For some time now, the realistic proposal has been sloped, dune shaped, passive structures. They are not intended to block monster waves. Their role is to emulate the ancient solid dune which was removed by sand mining. Because they are highly sloped, waves run up and down them in the normal manner, ensuring erosion is not transferred elsewhere. As in ‘soft hands’ when catching a ball, they accept wave force and decelerate it, as a natural dune does. Under an existing proposal, no public funds are required for these works. The current temporary approach is an expensive waste of time. It is past time we solved the problem. We cannot undo sand mining, but we certainly can restore the environment to a considerable degree.

Q

Matt Hartley

Byron Bay

Q One of the first letters I wrote to The Echo when I first arrived in Byron 25 years ago concerned the groyne at Main Jan Hackett Beach. In this letter I pointed Sunrise Beach out that the structure was di-

verting sand buildup north to the Belongil and the main culprits were the underwater spurs. Just recently a Council sponsored survey came to the same conclusion. I must say I feel cynical about this conclusion rather than smug because to me (and I’m sure others as well) it was bleeding obvious what was happening 25 years ago. In further letters I suggested that a solution to the problem was to remove the spurs and reshape the groyne to as far as possible recreate the original curve of the beach – though slightly further out to sea, because obviously the foreshore public lands and business are too valuable to let go. So if Council is going to bring any rocks it would be more productive to buy rocks to re-engineer the groyne than to ruin the beach at Belongil which more rocks placed there will inevitably result in. Dumping rocks at Belongil is a quick-fix, short-sighted non-solution which could completely erode the beach to the advantage of a small number of landowners and to the disadvantage of the general public. Re-engineering the groyne could provide a longterm solution. David Gilet

I mostly gave up on attempting to wake people up to such issues long ago. It’s excellent to read a voice of reason here in bubble land where the most alternative of opinions are often mercilessly ignored rather than curiously investigated.

Ballina Q Anybody who has read The Echo for a while will know that Peggy Balfour is one its most intelligent contributors. And now I see one of the bravest, too. Peggy had taken on the religious left wing with her latest well researched email on climate change. I have long been suspicious of the coordinated media campaign to frighten people about the environment. Virtually all the world’s media is owned by six corporations. And who owns the six? So why uncharacteristically promote an environmental cause that on the face of it affects big business? Or could it possibly be to the advantage of the world’s most influential people to have global laws that give jurisdiction over the air and the water

and, by default, the entire population? Climate change – the brilliant trojan horse. The primary link of CO2 to the climate was from Al Gore’s hockey stick graph. (Al recently bought an $8 million house on California’s ‘threatened’ shoreline). It took years for peer reviewers to extract the base data for this – an analysis of ten trees which was interpreted wrongly and with historical data missing (http:// bishophill.squarespace.com/ blog/2008/8/11/caspar-andthe-jesus-paper.html). There is a very balanced article from Byron’s own Kindred magazine that is worth reading and points out the flaws in the CO2 argument (www.byronbodyandsoul.com/media/docs/ Kindred_29.pdf). CO2, an innocous, naturally occuring gas. What about genuine pollution? What we do know is the climate is changing. Always has done. Most thinking on this planet is driven by the controlled media. Even the deliberately ludicrous presentation of ‘the other side’. It is insidious. I suspect Peggy Balfour will provoke an avalanche of media-think regurgitation by daring to be a climate change denier, the world’s latest holy category of dismissal. As Malcolm Muggeridge said, ‘Knowledge is the most arrogant of all opinions and invariably misleading.’ Particularly when one person’s knowledge is somebody else’s vested interest. Go Peggy.

istence is yet to be established (page 25). This book precedes George H W Bush’s speech about a New World Order and is part of an open conspiracy to control the entire globe by creating fear of looming catastrophe, rousing all citizens to become united under a new kind of environmental religion where individual freedom and rights are sacrificed for the good of humanity in order to save humanity; dissenters are accordingly chastised. When you follow something back to its beginning what lies behind it emerges. Their ‘idea’ of global warming has little to do with the environment but is all about control of the people in it. Have you ever wondered why we now have rezonings trying to restrict what we can do on our land while CSG companies pillage the environment? The world is run by greedy manipulative bastards and this is how they are doing it. Anton Vanderbyl

Q Nice to read the voice of sanity in last week’s letters regarding global warming. It goes like this – the international bankers invented anthropogenic global waming as a way to con us into accepting carbon taxes, and more legislation, which on the surface is about protecting the environment but is really about increasing their power and wealth. I’m annoyed that I got Neal Bowhay conned and have been wasting Myocum my time putting out the recy-

Q I have to agree with Peggy Balfour. Some may recall it was around 1970 when the first warnings of impending climatic disaster were put out by The Club of Rome, in their book, The First Global Revolution, published 1991, where the quote noted by Peggy appears about their ‘idea’ of global warming, they concede absolute certainty about its ex-

cling. So I did some research to see what else the bankers have been up to. It seems that in the mid 90s they sent undercover agents into the shire to live here, to probe the green movement. They used their considerable influence and resources to get the right sort of people into local media management positions, and to ensure that those media pumped out plenty of nonsense about sustainability and all sorts of greeny left ideas. Because the bankers needed to know what inspires and motivates people think green, thus how to get people to be compliant with the carbon taxes which they are planning to implement globally. They have of course been watching our responses and reactions to this media. It worked. Our reactions were amazing. Virtuous radicals embarked upon humble yet conspicuous campaigns to make the shire plastic shopping bag free! And more people put more bumper stickers on their cars! Beautiful people with a solar panel on their roofs got up there with a trumpet to let everyone else know, as if no one else in Australia had solar energy, not them over the border. If you are of the shire and you have an encounter with someone you think may be a banker’s agent, it is sufficient to just be your normal organically aloof self. Breathe! Don’t say any more to them than you would to anyone else outside your clique. Richard Hollier

Stop yapping One of the things I like about The Echo is the respectful, thoughtful tone in which members of the community engage on the letters page. This isn’t a case in point. To all the inconsiderate, head-up-your-arse dog owners that persist in leaving your mindless, barking mutts out late at night, eating the wildlife and keeping your neighbours awake, put the bloody animals indoors so we can all get some sleep.

Taxi rank advice Just a thought: move taxi rank to area on Jonson Street in front of toilet block in Railway Park, add a Police Beat Box that can be used for Friday/Saturday or other hot spot times/holidays/ Schoolies.

This will give taxi patrons toilets (instead of urinating in alleyways next to existing taxi rank) and also will allow direct policing from a central CBD location on the busy nights.

Fuelling the parties To ensure fuel for the next generation of electricity power stations the federal Labor government gave the goahead nationally to explore for and extract CSG. The cash-strapped state Labor government rushed in raising millions of dollars by selling licences and signing contracts with the mining companies. As most people were concerned at the haste with which this new mining industry was being established and developed the new Liberal/National state government immediately stopped the issuing of licences. Reviews were commenced into the whole industry. These are still ongoing today. The contracts already written by Labor must be legally upheld. That is why there are police at the mining sites upholding the law. We are going to a federal election in six months. The Labor brand is toxic. There is infighting, and they have cut themselves loose of the Greens. It is every man and woman for themselves. This week’s edition of The Echo has a full-page advert by Justine Elliot slamming the Nationals’ Matthew Fraser for not cleaning up the mess she

Something positive Everyone has something negative to say about Byron Shire Council. Well, I am writing to say something positive. I am Victorian and have come to this shire for about 38 years. In the last nine years I have cared for my ageing mother, a long-term resident of Byron, and have had issues with her sewerage due to tree roots etc repeatedly. When reported this has been dealt with incredibly promptly by an amazing team of workers who are efficient, incredibly helpful and solved the problem. So a big thankyou to them. I then also receive a phone call after their visit to make sure everything is as it should be. Thank you Byron Shire water and sewer team for always providing such a great service! Katrina McKellar

The bypass saga I was stunned and disappointed to see Crs Richardson and Spooner leading the charge for a ‘major bypass’ of Byron, as opposed to the minibypass previously approved by council. This engineering approach to problems is more commonly associated with the right wing. The only coherent debating comments came from Cr Cameron, who pointed out that road upgrades only generate more traffic, thus providing only short-term benefits. Cr Woods rightly questioned why councillors would ignore expensive studies which raise serious doubts about the

worth of a bypass (but she earlier on in the day had no qualms about disregarding previous studies re prospective sportsgrounds in Ocean Shores). These studies apparently say that 80 per cent of vehicles have the Byron CBD as their explicit destination – which is a way of saying that people don’t come to Byron to bypass it, duh. If I understood Sol Ibrahim correctly he was in favour of the new route because it would help him and other locals get to Clarkes Beach more quickly. Duncan Dey, evidently not at his best, agreed that dumping diverted traffic at Browning Street (near Mitre 10) was better than the former plan, which merely dumped traffic at another part of the CBD. Excuse me, doesn’t this mean that the 80 per cent destined for the CBD will merely have to drive further to get there, duh? It’s not merely vehicle numbers that cause congestion, but how much time a given number of vehicles spend cruising around the CBD. The clearest illustration of my point can be seen at the first carparks as you enter town. Going over the existing railway crossing you used to be able to immediately turn left and right into those carparks situated behind the shops and adjacent to the railway line, ie without entering the Jonson Street roundabout. These days if you want to park behind Hogsbreath, for example, you are compelled to contribute to the congestion at said roundabout, turn left, then turn left again past the Beach Hotel, then turn left into the carpark itself. Given the return journey it’s even worse: the one-way traffic in Jonson Street means you have to go along the beachfront to Fletcher Street, turn right and right again at the roundabout and then once again congest the crucial

If we could then get Cr Cameron and TOOT to look again at using the railway line as a part-time traffic overload facility, this would at least be a way of securing the survival of that corridor.

The End of the World is Nigh and other Hilarious Truths!

FOR MELBOURNE BASED COMEDIAN AND 'LIVING TREASURE’ ROD QUANTOCK, COMEDY WAS AN ACCIDENTAL CAREER. WITH OVER FOUR DECADES IN THE BUSINESS AND HAVING BEING CREDITED AS ONE OF THE FOUNDING FATHERS OF THE VIBRANT MELBOURNE SCENE, QUANTOCK JOKES THAT HE IS PREHISTORIC, THAT HE COMES FROM A TIME BEFORE STANDUP.

‘When I began there weren’t any standup comedians and there weren’t any venues.’ In the tradition of the world’s funniest comedians, Rod Quantock’s foray onto stage was through the vehicle of the university revue. ‘I was studying to be an architect. I figured that if I am an architect I’ll be doing bathroom extensions and carports. I would have done really funny car ports.’ Quantock is an intellectual and his comedy isn’t a download on trying to find underpants that fit, or putting petrol in your car, or being dropped by your girlfriend. From early on Quantock took his commitment as a radical and critical thinker seriously enough to make the whole thing a joke. It’s something he’s been doing ever since. ‘I like to think of it as being the Fool in King Lear. I have thought about comedy for a long time as a tool to get ideas across and to say things with a different shade to the way a journalist or a scientist might say. A comedian certainly can’t change the world, but it does invigorate the debate. Because let’s face it, people love it when you have eight speakers who are heavy and serious and a comedian who comes on and moderates and keeps things cheery. A lot of the issues we are facing are hopeless, so a humorous approach takes the pressure off.’ Quantock has followed the CSG battle with interest and has a unique and optimistic take. ‘The CSG thing is one that can be won mainly because the farmers are involved. No one has quite worked out how to deal with a radical farmer, they are mythical people when they get angry the media don’t have a clue, they can’t call them unemployed lazy professional protesters!’ Climate Change is the bell that Quantock rings in his shows these days. He is driven by a passion to consume information, to infuse it with humour and deliver it to a weary population who need a fresh take on a very pessimistic tale. As for climate change doubters, Quantock gives them little attention. ‘The official denial movement has given up on trying to fight the science – they’ve moved it into economic argument and of course it’s conspiratorial! I don’t respond to those people any more because you’ll never change their minds; they’ll be up to their necks in floodwater and they’ll say it’s an act of god to punish homosexuals. No, they’re a waste of time. You have to embolden the people who are actually wanting to do something.’ The future is bleak, says Quantock. ‘The CSIRO put out a great report on the future of biodiversity. They say by 2070 there won’t be one part of Australia that resembles what it is today; it will sound different and smell different. All that is now unavoidable so people need to localise and they need to bring resilience

into the systems we have. any building of defences against climate change equals fossil fuel which just adds CO2 to the atmosphere. In some way climate change is complicated, but at a fundamental level it’s pretty simple. We are about to hit 400 parts of CO2 per million, which is the highest it’s ever been. We are well on our way to 400–500 parts per million. Even in the age of the dinosaur they didn’t hit those numbers – this is unique in the history of the planet.’ So how do we move forward? ‘I’ll know we’ve sorted this out when the MCG is a vegetable garden. If we don’t turn our roads into strip agriculture and every square inch of available land into permaculture, then we’re doomed.’ So how does a comedian take the most serious subject on Earth – our species’ and planetary demise – and make it funny? ‘That’s the challenge that I enjoy,’ says Rod. ‘I seem to float above the world and look at the achievements of the last 10,000 years – the painting, the music, the mathematics, the science – and it’s all within the ...cont page 21 space of 100 years going to dribble away and

The Byron Shire Echo March 19, 2013 19

The other day a friend of mine was laughing about her mum and how she used to layby everything. I felt hot and prickly. My face flushed red. ‘What’s wrong?’ I fessed up. ‘I layby all the time.’ See Mandy live at She couldn’t believe it. Why? I don’t know. I thought everybody www.echonetdaily.net.au still did it. I didn’t know that I was still afflicted by the mindset LAYBY LULLABY of the working class. I am still shocked that other people don’t layby. In the old days, before there was PayPal and direct deposit Apparently only old people layby. And poor people. People who and credit cards, there was this thing called layby. A layby was can afford to buy the item there and then don’t really need to women’s business. Men don’t do layby. If a man couldn’t pay layby. But I can’t break the habit. I’m not happy unless I have a for something with cash or beer then he knew it was out of his layby in every store. There’s this feeling like I’m both frugal and reach. indulgent at the same time. Women knew that they may be able to budget for an unaffordable item if they skimped on the housekeeping money, While I may have gone over the six week period, I am proud to say that I have never defaulted on a purchase. Yes, I have even fed the kids sausages and potatoes, and if they were super redeemed goods I no longer like or even want. They go into cautious over a period of 6–8 weeks, then and only then, they the box marked ‘Christmas Presents’. That’s the problem with would be able to pay for the desired item. This was how we layby – by the time you pick the thing up you can’t be sure that scraped money together for a new dinner set, towels, or new you will still like it. Recently I risked life and limb picking up a school shoes. layby. On Friday 22 February I decided to drive to Ballina to pick It got so tough in our family when my dad died I even caught up an overdue layby. Ten minutes into the journey I noticed it my mum trying to layby bread and milk. The layby. Or in was windy. Halfway there a tree fell down on the road in front of America, the layaway. Literally it means ‘I’ll give you 20 per cent me. Should I turn back? No, I’m almost there. I am approaching of the purchase value for you to store it in your backroom until Ballina, I can’t see. Cars are pulled over on the side of the road, I’ve managed to come up with a way that I can pay for it’. but I am on a mission. I head for River Street. I count about ten trees that I have to It was like buying something without actually buying it. No swerve around. The wind on River Street is coming straight off instant purchase gratification. No the layby was all about delayed gratification. If you wanted something you had to wait. the river, it’s howling; no one is in the street, except two Salvos Layby was the retail version of engagement in a world that once whose card table is rolling down the pavement.

kilometres and hour. I am only 50 metres away from Janelle’s shop where my overdue layby is waiting. I walk into the wind and am reminded that I look exactly like my 1987 NIDA audition when I mimed walking into the wind except this time I’m really doing it. I now understand why I didn’t get in. I didn’t have the emotional intention. If I’d done the mime on the way to get a layby I would have arsed it. I have to hang on to a pole. The roof comes off the Pelican 101 restaurant and lodges in some wind sails. I am 20 metres away from my destination. I run across the road hoping not to be killed by a loose roofing tile. I can imagine how annoyed my husband will be when he has to bring up five kids because I’m killed on my way to get a layby. I make it. I am the only one in the store. The power keeps going down. Eftpos is unstable. ‘Try again, Janelle,’ I scream over the rain and howling wind. After the sixth attempt we connect. My money is extracted and the layby is in my hands. ‘Be careful,’ says Janelle. ‘Don’t kill yourself.’ I feel like Indiana Jones except it’s not the Temple of Doom he’s conquering, it’s a shopping centre. I roll out. This time I have to crawl on my stomach with the layby bag in my teeth. The roof comes off the Commonwealth Bank. My car is in eyeshot. I am almost there. A lone dog scuttles towards me in terror, the gust pushing it on top of me. The dog panics, yelps and runs off. I can’t believe it. I scream in horror, ‘A Dingo took my Layby!’

M SAGITTARIUS: This week’s gift is in the shift, because playing the game the way you’ve always played it is only going to produce the same results it always has. Different outcomes are available, though it will take allowing yourself to accept some radical realisations to get there… N CAPRICORN: Though Capricorns always know best, this week’s astral landscape suggests focusing your awesome energy on the home zone – as in improvements to physical comfort, aesthetic ambience, family relationships and general feng shui. Decluttering if that’s called for. Even moving somewhere else, if you need to. O AQUARIUS: This week isn’t averse to unconventional pleasures or rule breakers who operate according to their own nonconformist codes. Which means suddenly everyone’s behaving like Aquarians. If this annoys you, then it’s also a most auspicious time to pursue studies, take a course or buff up your creds. P P ISCES: If recent personal realisations have rocked your world, this week encourages new steps on a path less travelled – at least by you. And with astral influences supporting fresh enterprises and improving communications, it could be a path where you meet surprising allies and unlikely sponsors.

CHESS

by Ian Rogers Play at Byron Services Club, Mon 7pm China’s run of gold at Women’s World Team Championships came to an end this week when Ukraine secured a narrow victory in Kazakhstan. Their final round against Russia was expected to be a big test for the Ukrainians but big brother Russia decided to help out their former colony and four insipid draws ensured that China were held at bay. Australia has never qualified for a World Team Championship and is unlikely ever to do so, needing to finish ahead of power-teams such as China, India and Vietnam at an Olympiad to claim the Asian region position in the tournament. Given the performances of Turkey and France, capable teams massacred in match after match by the top contenders in Astana, this might seem just as well, though it would be a great test for our players.

Music so good it's Smoking VERY OFTEN IN this job I have to interview an act that I have never heard of. I’ll have an hour to throw on a CD and read their website blurb and then I pretend I am really familiar with their work or that I really like it. To be honest, sometimes I don’t. so when I went to YouTube to play some Kitty, Daisy and Lewis, a 20 something sibling group out of the UK, I wasn’t expecting much. Within five minutes I’d downloaded both their albums. The music just oozes class and a sensibility of music from a time well before these kids were born. I certainly know why Chris Martin of Coldplay has called these guys ‘Fucking Brilliant’. Recording on their vintage studio at home (courtesy of Lewis, who admits to having a penchant for production), this modest and unpretentious threesome kick from the first howl of Eddie Tan Tan Thornton’s trumpet (their only non sib player – he’s something like 70, a Jamaican ska player and a legend in his own right) to the heavy foot on the wah wah pedal. Lewis credits his family’s love of music as the foundation. ‘My dad would sing to us when we were kids. He would sing old songs from his childhood. We had some records and stuff, but it was usually just singing. If we did listen to music, it was my mum and it was the Kinks, but my dad would sing with the guitar because that’s what he did with his family as he grew up in India. When we started going out and buying music of people we ; it was jazz, blues and R&B.’ As schoolkids they had the musical tastes of other people’s grandparents. ‘I found it quite hard when we got to school and we found out that people didn’t play music at home and I had just assumed that people did that. And I found out that people just listened to what was currently in the charts. I was shocked – not that I thought it was good or bad, I just couldn’t believe

SUNDAY TAPAS AT...

people would do that. In the end I introduced a lot of my friends to the kind of music that I loved. ‘We grew up playing instruments,’ says Lewis. ‘We never learnt them formally. One of the things I most I enjoy in music is to hear people playing and how you can take an instrument, like a piano, and there’s thousands of people who can make it sound different, like the guitar – you can play two notes and you’ll know who’s playing. Like a signature. No one else can do that, except that person.’ The musical references of Kitty, Daisy and Lewis are rooted in the old tradition and their latest album Smoking in Heaven reflects their love of old timey tunes and licks. ‘It’s very organic for us. Someone will write a song and we’ll all be together and they’ll sing the song for us. And they’ll be like us, like Daisy wrote a song; she says I imagine you play a guitar on that and you play piano. We try different ways because as you know you can do a song a thousand different ways!’ For the threesome (well, four including Tan Tan) it’s about having fun. ‘We go around the world and play music that we enjoy,’ says Lewis, who’s the eldest at just 24. ‘We have been doing it for 11 years and it still feels like a kind of laugh that people want us to play! It doesn’t feel like we are a band and we are doing it for a living. We turn up and go home and wonder if we’ll ever have to get a proper job. ‘That’s how we got the name, because we on at a festival and we didn’t have a band name so they put on the poster as Kitty Daisy and Lewis. We kept meaning to change it but it stuck.’ Catch Kitty, Daisy and Lewis at the Byron Blues Festival this Easter long weekend.

The Byron Shire Echo March 19, 2013 23

What are the cultural origins? The origins of the Roma (gypsy) people have been hotly contested in the past but it is now widely believed they originated in north India and migrated to the Middle East more than a thousand years ago. The Roma have developed music and dance traditions across Europe and parts of the Middle East where many of them now live. I’m drawn to Spanish gypsy and Russian gypsy. Can you explain what it is? My style has the bold posture and fire of flamenco, the sauciness and earthiness of Turkish Roman, and the spins and romantic movement of Russian gypsy. I make my own THIS SATURDAY AT KULCHAJAM modern blend. Of course, it looks fabulous AT THE BYRON INDUSTRIAL with the big skirt. ESTATE, WILD HONEY PRESENT How did you come to be dancing? When I was seven my mother started me DANCE WITH PASSION, A PERFORMANCE EVENT STARRING in bellydance classes to connect with my cultural heritage (I am French-Lebanese HUSH GYPSY, OPALESQUE, Australian). As I got older this wasn’t SERENA JOY AND THE BAREFOOT enough because I wanted to use the GYPSIES. SEVEN SPOKE WITH RITA, whole stage and my whole body. I have AKA HUSH GYPSY, ON THE EVE OF studied a range of genres while in Canada, USA and various cities around Australia. HER PERFORMANCE. There was a time in my life where I put Rita, what has attracted you to dancing dance in the background while I focused modern gypsy? I was drawn into gypsy on my career as a political adviser in dance by the music. I love the adventurous Canberra. But even then, I still kept rhythms and melodies. It can be playful, dancing – it kept me sane. Since I left passionate, free, dark or brooding. It gives politics and made the decision to focus on you so much scope as a dancer to express my dance it has flourished and taken me yourself. to festivals all over Australia.

dance with passion

Is your show also funny? How do you tell the story? Yes, the comedy part to my performance just evolved when I started interacting with the audience on my way to dance on stage. I just started speaking with an accent and setting up silly games with audience members. The response was so amazing that the comedy took on a life of its own. One of my favourite shows was my first one in Byron in 2012 when I was almost eight months pregnant. I caused a ruckus by arriving through the back entrance with my luggage and chatted up some friendly men in the audience. They played along famously for almost the whole act. Not everyone liked my pregnant belly, with one person saying it was ‘too much information’ as they could see the outline of the baby when I danced. I don’t think so! What is the story? Because a lot of my comedy is largely unscripted it can be very unpredictable! I can say my character, Madame Coco Gateau, is an eccentric European woman who is saucy and amorous, but always looking for love in the wrong places. She can be a bit temperamental. (Hopefully, not so much now she has had the baby.) What is it about gypsy that you think resonates with people? The freedom of spirit and passion that the dance conveys. But I also show respect for the roots of gypsy dance and culture – it comes from a very proud and resilient people. What should we expect for your local show? Lots of belly laughs. Lots of stunning and passionate performance. Exquisite costuming and flying skirts. Good food. What more do you need? $15 adults / $7 kids, or come early for the mini class + show ($20 adults / $10 kids – must be pre-booked). Doors 7pm, delicious food available all night.

BOOK REVIEWS The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga Review by John Mitchell

Balram Halwai, also known as The White Tiger, is a self-declared entrepreneur living in the home of all entrepreneurs, Bangalore. He feels compelled to write to the Chinese prime minister before an upcoming state visit to India. ‘White men will be finished in my lifetime,’ he tells the Chinese PM. ‘In twenty years it will just be us brown and yellow men at the top of the pyramid, and we’ll rule the world.’ The letter is written over seven days during which he explains how he, The White Tiger, emerged from the darkness (the poverty of rural India) and came to the light (the opportunity for wealth in Delhi) through cunning, deception, lies, betrayal and even murder. The book is never far from hilarious. It is replete with overstatements and self-referencing boasts, all in an attempt to demonstrate the basis for entrepreneurship in the world’s new economic powerhouse where in fact the book highlights the brutality and ruthlessness intrinsic to the emergent superpower. ‘In the old days there were a thousand castes and destinies 24 March 19, 2013 The Byron Shire Echo

in India. These days there are two castes: men with big bellies and men with small bellies.’ The White Tiger is a brilliantly funny satire of India and its incredible growth. It may have been a surprise winner of the Man Booker prize in 2008 but for me it was thoroughly deserved.

Hitch-22 by Christopher Hitchens Review by John Mitchell

What an extraordinary memoir! Replete with Hitchens’ trademark brilliance and cutting wit, Hitch-22 takes you into the life of this remarkable man. Hitchens describes himself as an ‘oppositionist’ – not in the facile and intellectually dishonest ‘Tony Abbott’ sense but in his preparedness to challenge mainstream thinking. He grew up as an enigma: English public school education followed by university at Oxford, yet socialist through and through. His father was Commander in the Royal Navy and while Hitchens freely criticises defence structures and processes, he also presents support for various military actions. Put simply he is non-conformist. His values and beliefs defy categorisation because he refuses to hold to a set

ROCK ME BABY With Byron starting to fill with musicians and fans for BluesFest, Palace Cinemas presents Rock Me Baby, a cinematic celebration of music and musos, from Monday to Thursday March 28. Screening are Neil Young Journeys, Marley, and Searching for Sugar Man. Tickets for each film are $9–10.

PATTI ALLEN’S VAUDEVILLE Patti Allen’s Theatre Royal revives classic music hall. Over about 100 minutes, the four person cast present the traditional variety fare of short singing, dancing and comedy acts, combined with numbers from modern musical theatre like Phantom of the Opera. The Theatre Royal in Elizabeth Street, Brisbane, ran from 1881 to 1959 and heralded an era of vaudeville in Brisbane’s history. Some of the names of the performers from the early days are sure to ring a bell with our older theatre goers. Acts such as George Wallace, Buster Fiddess, Eddie Edwards, Doris Whimp, Roy Rene (Moe), Jackie Ellison and of course, Patti Allen. Other great entertainers appeared onstage including Bobby Limb, Barry Crocker, Toni Lamond, Sabrina and even the Horrie Dargie Quintet. Dennis Price accompanies Patti on stage, on the keyboard and occasionally joining in vocally with his wife. Birmingham born Dennis started his career on stage as one of Tommy Steele’s Steelmen and appeared in the film The Tommy Steele Story and was managing director for the singing star for three years. Dennis has also performed with the Polka Dots and with many American greats including Bob Hope, Ella Fitzgerald and Peggy Lee. He also backed Judy Garland when the late great star sang at the London Palladium. After coming to Australia, Dennis became musical director for Kamal. He has also appeared with performers such as Dick van Dyke, Toni Lamond and Jerry and the Pacemakers. Naturally he is being kept busy as musical director to his wife Patti. Patti Allen’s Theatre Royal will play at Lismore’s Star Court Theatre on Saturday at 2pm. Tickets are $15 (which includes a free cuppa) and are available at the box office in Star Court Arcade, or at the door.

of beliefs. Every issue is thought through as an individual proposition and this is precisely how Hitchens treats people. He openly and harshly criticises his friends and enemies alike if/when he sees them as wrong. For example, Susan Sontag is both a villain and a hero in Hitch-22. In a classic Hitchens line, he presents discrimination as problematic because it is not discriminating. Discrimination groups people into one group and their individuality is lost. Hitchens does not hide from conflict and is not afraid to admit being wrong. At one point, Hitchens asks Salman Ru shdie to endorse one his books, which includes a direct criticism of a Rushdie position on Nicaragua. Rushdie agrees and commends the book with lavish praise ‘... except for pages 225–227...’ What a breath of fresh air. There is no holding back to protect the insecurities of others, only a passion for ideas and discovery. Not for the light-hearted, Hitch-22 is a meaty work that demands your attention but rewards with a renewed sense of vigour and interest in the world.

The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce Review by John Mitchell

This is a beautiful story. It is gentle, funny, inspiring and then, out of nowhere, it will make you cry. Harold Fry is a timid and socially awkward retiree who has lived in the same house in the south of England for 45 years. When a letter arrives for him he is tempted to return it on the basis that no-one writes to him, let alone anyone from Berwickupon-Tweed (the postmark on the envelope). When he does finally open the letter at the insistence of Maureen, his sensible if somewhat brusque wife, Harold is visibly moved to read that a work colleague from decades earlier is gravely ill. Harold responds with an overly formal and rather underwhelming, if not totally lame, note and sets off to post it. At the first postbox, Harold is struck by the inadequacy of his note and is reluctant to release the letter into the box. He decides to walk to the following postbox. In this single action of withholding the letter from the postbox, Harold seems to have taken hold of something much bigger than a simple letter. Indeed he seems to be baulking at continuing in his

life of inadequacy and timidity. Harold does not post the letter at the next several postboxes and finds himself five miles out of town – he has unwittingly begun his pilgrimage. A pilgrimage requires enduring commitment and faith in the face of challenge and unavoidable disappointments, and typically it is only at the end of a pilgrimage that one begins to understand and hopefully appreciate the true motivation for the journey. The danger with pilgrimage stories, particularly gentle ones, is that they can become ‘twee’, but Rachel Joyce neither simplifies nor overstates – there is plenty of salt to balance the sweet. In an almost effortless way, Joyce gradually unveils the lives of Harold, Maureen and their only son David. We discover their tragedy and their joy and we do it at Harold’s pace. I felt intimately connected to Harold throughout, but Maureen is not lost. Her frustration and sense of betrayal when Harold tells her of his plan to walk to Berwick is not overlooked. Maureen’s journey is just as profound and provides a lovely balance to Harold’s almost simple-minded process of self-discovery.

As comedies go, it’s not one for the time capsule, but with Steve Carell, Steve Buscemi, Jim Carrey and the irascible Alan Arkin at work (‘that’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen, and I saw my kids get born!’), you know that the humour won’t fall flat for any lack of expertise. Burt (Carell) and Anton (Buscemi) were school buddies who grew up to be the most famous magic act on the Las Vegas strip. Typical of most longstanding arrangements, over familiarity and personal grievances raise their ugly heads, resulting in the partnership being torn apart. On his own, Burt’s career flounders – his routine is stale, his delivery jaded and his

outfit ridiculously outdated. On his uppers, he accepts the demeaning position of entertainer at a retirement home, where he is reunited with his childhood inspiration, the legendary prestidigitator Rance Holloway (Arkin). Burt is rejuvenated, but before he can re-establish his name in lights he must ward off the challenge of gonzo performer Steve Gray (Carrey). Prior to his fall, Burt the star is vain, complacent and nasty to his mate and underlings – meaning that Carell is cast against type, and he doesn’t look altogether comfortable in the part. It is only when the tide turns against Burt that the inoffensive, uncertain Carell, the one we like, emerges. In contrast, through his reigned-in ratbaggery and mocking narcissism, Carrey creates a populist who (like the aforementioned Abbott) will do anything to win the mob. Pushing his shtick to the extremes expected by punters, Gray’s stunt in the grand finale of drilling a hole in his own head is as uproarious as it is darkly unsettling. The boys’ only chance of topping it is to pull off the disappearing audience trick – which they’ve never attempted. With terrific support from James Gandolfini as the crass resort owner, Olivia Wilde the love interest and Jay Mohr, this is funny and smart. ~ John Campbell

conductor), a gorgeous stone manor surrounded by what looks like a manicured Capability Brown landscape, is the last port of call for retired classical musicians. I did not believe for one minute that Billy Connolly (as Wilf) might one day have been an opera singer of renown, but it’s a piffling matter, for he, in ensemble with Tom Courtenay (Reggie), Pauline Collins (Cissy) and Maggie Smith (Jean), are all on-song and playing to type. Wilf, the waggish Lothario (‘your music brought tears to my ears’) and the others are called upon to sing a quartet from Giuseppe Verdi’s Rigoletto at an upcoming gala fundraiser (2013 marks the composer’s centenary). The group’s major hurdle is to overcome the recalcitrance of Jean, from whom Reggie was bitterly estranged until she arrived unannounced at Beecham. In his directorial debut, Dustin Hoffman does not hit a false note. This is the work of a veteran who has been in a lot of movies and, aiming to please, knows unerringly how to achieve that goal. Gently paced, with just the right balance of light and shade – albeit without ever scratching very deeply below the surface of occasional despair at physical decline and the recurring melancholy that goes hand in glove with constant Quartet memory – honesty and hope If I could be assured that, in my prevail. dotage, I will be shunted off to The latter virtue is underscored an old people’s home that is by a shrewd but essential anything like the one in which inclusion of young people, this cosy and endearing piece including a surprisingly is set, I would not dread the touching scene in which a approach of my twilight years black boy tries to explain rap nearly so much – being in the to Reggie.

Television Guide

THURSDAY 21

1. People get surprised when animals think they have the right to a livelihood in the humans’ yard (or even house) and that’s when the Animal Extractors come in (One HD, Saturday, 7.30pm). You can also get some idea of extraction processes on the YouTube channel www.youtube.com/show/animalextractors or at http:// natgeotv.com.au/tv/animal-extractors. 2. Jack Black and Michael Cera ‘star’ in one of the truly awful ‘comedies’ of all time, Year One (Go!, Sunday, 8.30pm). It plays fast and loose with biblical ‘history’ and makes Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure look like Crime And Punishment. The two adventurers end up in ancient Sodom, as if to acknowledge the movie is truly buggered.

The east end of Byron Bay’s Jonson Street just gets better all the time. There’s Red Ginger and Cafe One One One and the lovely homewares shop; there’s the new Palace where you can now share a bottle of wine over whatever movie you have chosen to watch. There is stylish, delectable Citrus Deli and there is Wholly Smoked Organic Butchery. And now, within that same little complex and complementing so beautifully the latter business in both name and focus, is an organic bakery called Holy Grain. It’s a small and scrupulously clean space and it is run by a young couple called Paul Buffery and Joyce Bucholtz. Paul, the baker, is from New Zealand while Joyce, who does the shopfront, the marketing and the bookkeeping, is from Brazil. They met in Noosa where Joyce had been running her own successful mobile dogwash business and Paul had been working in a bakery. Two children later, they decided they wanted a complete change of lifestyle and location – besides, Paul was tired of working for others and

wanted his own business. They spent six months looking for premises between the Sunshine Coast and Ballina until an advertisement in the Byron Shire Echo led them to the present site. ‘This part of coast is Paul’s dream surf spot,’ Joyce tells me. They signed the lease in December last year and opened the doors on 11 January. So it is all still quite new – although according to Joyce it has been going extremely well and exceeding her expectations, largely thanks to word of mouth and the odd letterbox drop. Paul’s specialisation is artisan breads and specifically sourdough. When I ask him why he thinks there is such a craze for it at the moment his reply is that ‘people in Byron seem to be after something in its most pure form, with nothing artificial’. Sourdough to be sure is the oldest form of leavened bread – believed to have originated in Ancient Egyptian times around 1500 BCE – which relies on a natural yeast forming out of water and flour as opposed to the artificial yeast which revolutionised and industrialised the whole breadmaking process. ‘I find it easier to make than other breads,’ Paul tells me. ‘It’s not jumping – it’s not racing against you: it’s more under control.’

BAY BUG AND CARROT, TROUT ROE & SHELLFISH EMULSION Wilson's Restaurant Peppers Coorabell Serves 4

FOR THE RED CLAW 4 red claw or fresh water yabbies 1 bunch baby white or yellow carrots 1 punnet shiso Pea shoots for garnish 50gm dulse flakes 1 small jar good quality trout roe Tablespoon of good quality sherry vinegar Method: Start by removing the flesh from the red claw. Twist the heads to remove from the body. Using a sharp pair of kitchen scissors cut both sides of the underside of the body to the tail, gently pull away from the flesh and then carefully pull the meat out from the shell. Skewer with a bamboo skewer so as to keep the meat from curling up when cooked. Clean the baby carrots and blanch in boiling salted water and plunge into iced water to refresh. Snip the shiso into a clean bowl of iced water with the pea shoots, leave for a few minutes and drain onto kitchen towel.

FOR THE EMULSION 2 egg yolks Juice of a half a lemon ½ teaspoon of sea salt Pinch of castor sugar 100ml grape seed oil 100ml shellfish oil *see note Method: Place the egg yolks into a food processor with the lemon juice, salt and sugar. In a measure jug pour both oils. While the food processor is running pour the oil in a slow steady stream.

Taste the emulsion and adjust seasoning.

FOR THE CARROT PUREE 5 large carrots Sea salt to taste Method: Juice 3 of the carrots. Peel and chop the remaining 2, transfer to a saucepan, pour over the carrot juice and rapidly boil until cooked. Puree in a food processor and pass through a tammis. Adjust the seasoning with sea salt. To finish the dish For the red claw, melt some butter in a skillet until just foamy, using a lower heat so as the red claw does not brown at all but the flesh cooks until just translucent in the middle of the skewer. If the butter begins to brown too much discard it and use some fresh butter. Remove onto absorbent paper, squeeze over some lemon juice and season with sea salt then gently remove the skewer. Warm the baby carrots in hot water and season with a small pinch of sea salt. On the plate make a line with the carrot puree, dot the emulsion around, sprinkle some dulse flakes then place the trout roe, and finally place the red claw down followed by the baby carrot. Garnish the dish with the shiso and pea shoots. *Note: You can prepare shellfish oil by simply roasting the shells from the red claw in a hot oven then transferring to a heavy based saucepan with some bay leaf, tomato trimmings, thyme, coriander seed and garlic with enough olive oil to cover, heating for 5 to 10 minutes, removing from the heat and covering to leave stand for 6 to 8 hours.

He also makes a fabulous fruit & walnut, a heavy rye, olive sourdough, wholemeal vienna, spelt sourdough, ciabatta, turkish and grain sourdough (his personal favourite). The couple has begun to supply several local restaurants as well as outlets like Green Garage, Citrus and Baz & Shaz. Paul – whose eyes are the colour of the ocean, and who is at the tail end of his 12 hour shift and in his boardies about to head off for a surf – parcels me up a couple of weighty hot cross buns he has lately been baking, given the time of year it is. ‘After twenty years baking I still go to a bakery every day,’ he tells me. ‘I love bread.’

Devils down Giants in preview Titans show Raiders who’s Skilled

John Campbell

As pre-season tantalisers go, last Saturday’s Byron Bay Red Devils versus Mullumbimby Giants trial was never going to be up there with the Charity Shield. But it was a game of footy nonetheless, and with both of the ancient enemies keen to improve on last season’s efforts, it was one of serious intent. Local league aficionados approached it with relish. After promising so much in 2012, the Devils were bundled out of the play-offs without a whimper, whereas the Giants were never in the race in their annus horribilis. A pale crescent moon floated in a cloudless sky as Ryan ‘the Crab’ O’Connell led the hosts out before an estimated 1,711 keen onlookers. In what was intended as an opportunity for the brains trust of each side to mix’n’match new recruits with regulars and get a handle on what their best combinations might be, it was

reassuring to see some familiar faces emerge from the sheds. The three Kings were there for the Devils, Chris sporting a seriously deranged Mohawk, along with Sam ‘Tin Legs’ Barnes and evergreen Duane ‘Drano’ Cahill. Among Mullum’s die-hards were Max Binkley, Jake Wood, Aaron Cook and Robbie ‘Crazy’ Goodacre, who still hasn’t found any garters to keep his sox up. Not surprisingly, the early exchanges were marked by incohesion and plenty of dropped ball. Noticeable, however, was Mullum’s willingness for the task – they were quick off their line in defence and, even at this stage, they look a tighter outfit. The Giants were first on the board and took a 4–0 lead to the quarterly break after composed halfback Troy McArthur crossed. King (Chris), with his aerodynamic skull, showed blinding speed to score a runaway try soon after the resumption before Ben Webber provided

the highlight of the afternoon. Collecting an inch perfect banana kick from Barnes, he beat a posse of Giants chasers in a desperate race to the line. When King (Chris) fanged it down the sideline for his second four pointer, the Devils suggested they might run away with it, but they lost the pill from the kick off and Cook stormed over in the corner to put the Blue and Golds back in the hunt. The deal was sealed for Byron after a scrum in the Giants’ twenty. King (Chucky), standing at five-eighth, served up a sweetly timed pass for Cahill to cruise in adjacent to the upright. Barnes’s conversion was a formality, giving the Devils a hard earned if not entirely convincing 20–10 win, with Cook icing the fans’ cake by being marched for giving lip to the ref. It would foolish to attempt any long range predictions, but the commitment shown by all augurs well – this was no slap and tickle outing. The boys got stuck in and Mullum, more structured than in 2012, might just as easily have taken the spoils. The competition proper kicks off on April 6, with the Bay at home to premiers Murwillumbah and Mullum hosting the Ballina Seagulls at Les Donnelly Field. Get along and make a noise.

Eve Jeffery & Zac Thomas

The iSelect Gold Coast Titans meant business when they took to the field at Skilled Park on Sunday afternoon. They made absolute use of the home ground advantage and the Raiders didn’t see them for dust. The Titans scored and converted two tries within the first ten minutes of the first half and things just rolled on from there. A Raiders short kick saw a fumble just before half time and Jamal Idris ran from the Raiders’ try line to the Titans’ 30 metre mark with not a man in sight. He passed off the Albert Kelly who merely finished what Idris had started – a few seconds later the siren sounded and the Titans went to the break 30–0. Another try after in the second half and a stalemate set in and that was all, she wrote. The Titans 36–0 notched up their first score on the board and the Raiders finished off a less than stellar week in less than stellar style. The good news for the Raiders is: the only way is up. The first of The Echo’s cadet journalists also made his way up to Skilled Park on the weekend. Zac Thomas will be one of the juniors who will give up reports during the season. Zac

Fed water decision ‘useless’ Conservationists are worried federal environment minister Tony Burke’s decision to use the federal environment law to protect water resources from coal seam gas projects will count for nothing if final approval powers for big developments are handed to state governments. The Places You Love alliance has today run an advertisement in a major daily newspaper calling on Minister Burke to remove from federal law any possibility of environmental approval powers being handed to states. The ad says a ‘battle is raging over the protection of the places and wildlife Australians love’. ‘State governments and industry are demanding [the government] hand over federal environmental approval powThird quarter March 5 New moon March 12 First quarter March 20 Full moon March 27 Day of Sun Sun Moon month rise set rise 1 F 0637 1918 2115 2 S 0638 1917 2159 3 S 0639 1916 2248 4 M 0639 1915 2341 5 T 0640 1914 6 W 0640 1913 0039 7 T 0641 1912 0140 8 F 0642 1911 0243 9 S 0642 1910 0347 10 S 0643 1909 0449 11 M 0644 1907 0551 12 T 0644 1906 0650 13 W 0645 1905 0749 14 T 0645 1904 0846 15 F 0646 1903 0942 16 S 0647 1902 1037 17 S 0647 1901 1130 18 M 0648 1859 1221 19 T 0648 1858 1310 20 W 0649 1857 1356 21 T 0649 1856 1440 22 F 0650 1855 1521 23 S 0651 1854 1600 24 S 0651 1852 1638 25 M 0652 1851 1715 26 T 0652 1850 1752 27 W 0653 1849 1830 28 T 0653 1848 1911 29 F 0654 1847 1955 30 S 0654 1946 2044 31 S 0655 1844 2137

Your assessor may look at your previous energy bills. Home assessments usually only take an hour or two depending on how much information you can supply, the size of

your property and the number of energy and water systems you have. When you receive your home assessment report, act immediately on things you can do without spending money, consider small and cheap solutions straight away, and plan for bigger investments. – from livinggreener.gov.au

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, they say. It seems to be the case with the South Coast Times of Torquay, Victoria, which is using one of our spoof classified ads ‘Go back in time’. Unfortunately the email address in the ad is live, and our drudge who created the ad is receiving heaps of responses from Torquay residents who seem very keen on time travel. You can read the independent Times online at www.surfcoasttimes.com.au. Q Q Q Q

We have a new pope, named Francis after the saint. Before his predecessor, Benedict XVI, (a) fades into history, (b) becomes the unwilling figurehead of a schism, or (c) gets assassinated to head off (b), let us give him his due. His act of resignation really was unique. When he announced it there was much twaddle about him being the first to do so in nearly six hundred years, but in fact the pope who supposedly ‘resigned’ in 1415 was actually deposed and flung into jail. Edward Gibbon archly says about his trial: ‘The more scandalous charges were suppressed; the vicar of Christ was accused only of piracy, rape, sodomy, murder and incest.’ This pope went under the name John XXIII but when the church deleted him from the apostolic succession the name was also deleted, which is how Angelo Roncalli was

able to use it when he was pope between 1958 and 1963. Roncalli of course was loved by the flock for the reforms of the Second Vatican Council and hated for the same reason by the Curia and subsequent popes who have carefully dismantled his legacy. Best of luck, Frank.

PATIOS & EXTENSIONS

Q Q Q Q

Trouble ahead: the death of Queensland developer Chum Vidgen last year means that some of his properties are on the market again. In the APN press former councillor Jan Mangleson appears to be nominating him for sainthood for his part in developing Ocean Shores, but there is a dissenting view. In particular the sites now for sale on either side of the Shara Boulevard junction at North Ocean Shores are – according to local environmentalists – totally unsuitable for development. Activists stopped the bulldozers there some years ago on behalf of the wildlife corridor, and will probably try to do so again.

Q Q Q Q

The temporary reprieve from Metgasco’s mining efforts on the north coast has brought celebration among protesters, but the company has vowed to return, obviously when the political climate is right. What the political climate is struggling with is the wholesale adoption of renewable energy before global warming burns us all up. Of course the reality of AGW is still debated by some citizens, as you’ll see from the theories on page 16. Q Q Q Q

Council’s contractors will attempt later this week to dump more geobags at Belongil where the sand has washed away in front of the existing wall. Readers have offered alternatives in letters on page 12, but we suspect there is much more futility to come, inside and outside the courts.
