Mungo on Fraudband – p10

North Byron development scaled back Residents opposed to the development of the former Becton site in Sunrise have welcomed developer plans to scale it back in size and for Council to push for conditions on approval. An application to hold temporary cultural events at Bayshore Drive by North Byron Beach Resort Pty Ltd will be tabled at Thursday’s Council meeting. In the agenda, staff say, ‘It is proposed to hold a maximum of six events per year within the site, being three events at 3,000 capacity, and three events at 1,000 capacity.’ A two year trial is also proposed. Miranda Burne from Save Our Sunrise (SOS) told The Echo, ‘SOS looks forward to working with the council and the proponents to ensure the festivals will enhance rather than diminish the social and environmental values of the area, which is home to threatened species including koalas and pied oystercatchers.’

Leilani Avery-Numa and her Year 4 Shearwater classmates spent last Wednesday helping plant a koala super highway at Myocum. The Koala Connections project is a partnership program between Byron and Tweed Shire Councils and aims to restore 225 hectares of koala habitat. Koalas have faced a number of threats recently and are now classified as a Vulnerable Species at both state and federal level. If you would like to help out, call Byron Shire Council on 6626 7068 or for more information on the project go to www.byron.nsw.gov.au/koala-connections.

rent through negotiation’, he says. ‘Local landlords are meeting the market with rent reviews and valuations.’ Paul says he feels that landlords from out of town are a problem and he used the Woolworths Plaza as an example. ‘The current owner does not appear to care about Byron Bay’, he said. ‘[The plaza] is very run down and very grotty. I am not at all happy about how they keep that shopping centre. They said they would do it up but they haven’t spent a penny on it as far as I can see.’ Owner of the Byron Woolies Plaza, Gold Coast developer Robert Badalotti, was asked to comment but as of going to press had not responded. Previously The Echo reported that he intends to redevelop the site, where both bids for a Dan Murphy’s and KFC have failed. Chris thanked everybody for their support and wished his customers well.

For those looking for clues as to how Council plans to balance its budget, a ‘confidential’ staff report by Council on subdividing the Ocean Shores Roundhouse site will debated at the upcoming April 18 Council meeting. It’s anticipated that the sale of the subdivided land could provide much needed cash to Council’s dwindling coffers, estimated to be short about $10m in this year’s budget. But community groups the Roundhouse Action Group (RAG) and Ocean Shores Community Association (OSCA) have called on the new councillors to ‘keep their word made at the Ocean Shores Community Centre prior to the Council election and not subdivide the Roundhouse site.’ The Council owned property, which sits prominently overlooking the beach and golf club, has a long history; late last year the Roundhouse Action Group (RAG) presented what it claimed was a revenue positive business model. It advocated a public cultural building, incorporating a gallery, museum, theatre, cinema, restaurant and archival space. ‘This can be done as a long term project without putting an economic burden on the Council,’ Jan Mangleson from RAG said. Staff recommendations remain confidential, however the summary from the agenda says that in April 2012 Council advised the Ocean Shores Country Club (OSCC) that it would not proceed with the joint 13 lot Roundhouse site development and instead brokered a new agreement with the club for easements ‘associated with Council progressing its own 11 lot Roundhouse subdivision.’ ‘The purpose of this report is to advise Council that a new agreement has been finalised and to report the matter to Council prior to seeking tenders for the works associated with construction of the subdivision.’ The confidential report will be tabled on Thursday.

Making the switch to CSG free energy Hans Lovejoy

Former Shearwater students Thorne Davis, Jo Loewenthal and Patrick Davies have started an energy consultancy business that aims to educate which electricity provider is investing in coal seam gas and fossil fuels. Inspire The Shire’s managing director Jo, pictured middle, says they spent last year working within Melbourne’s electricity industry and have since returned home to spread the word on unethical power generation. ‘We soon realised what is going on behind the scenes,’ he said, and they decided to move back to Byron and ‘take affirmative action by making a stand against unethical power generation.’ ‘Our purpose is to raise awareness and make it as easy as possible for everyone to switch to CSG free power,’ he says. ‘We are not trying to promote retailers ourselves because we believe that it’s not our place to say; we are only raising awareness about the subject and we leave it up to the broker to help people decide which retailer is best for them.’ He says they are operating under the umbrella of Melbourne based company Elec-

As for alternatives, both Hydro Tasmania and The Snowy Mountains Hydro-Electric Scheme provide energy retailers with renewable energy.

SCU condemns uni cuts Bangalow highrise up on Chris Dobney

‘Robbing Peter to pay Paul’ is how Southern Cross University’s vice-chancellor professor Peter Lee has described the federal government’s decision to cut more than $2 billion from the tertiary sector to help pay for its Gonski reforms to secondary education. ‘The logic of increasing funding to schools – provided the states actually agree to contribute – but then reducing the ability of universities to take the students who benefit from the investment in school funding is baffling,’ he said yesterday. Professor Lee said changes such as the conversion of student start-up scholarships into a loan ‘will hit the very

students the government professes it wants to encourage to go to university’. Greens candidate for the seat of Richmond, Dawn Walker has supported professor Lee’s comments, along with shadow parliamentary secretary for regional education, Nationals senator Fiona Nash. She described the cuts as ‘cruel and foolish,’ and told media the cuts would fall particularly harshly on regional universities and students. Australia sits at 25th out of 29 advanced economies for public investment in universities as a percentage of GDP and professor Lee said regional Australia lags further behind capital cities in educational attainment.

Council’s agenda A four storey residential and commercial development in Bangalow has been rejected by Council staff ahead of the April 18 meeting. Sydney developers Gordon Highlands Pty Ltd had sought approval on a medium sized block for eight dwellings, three shops and basement car parking for eighteen vehicles. The location is 9 Station Street, adjacent to the A&I Hall. But it caused outcry from residents, including the Bangalow School P&C, who organised a public meeting in response. In the report, planning staff cited provisions under the Environmental Planning and As-

sessment Act 1979 for refusal. They include that the ‘proposed bulk and scale of the building is likely to have a negative impact on the built environment of the locality.’ Other reasons included that it is inconsistent with provisions in the Byron Development Control Plan (DCP) and that it detracted from the character and appearance of the Bangalow Heritage Precinct, as defined in the Byron Local Environmental Plan 1988. Staff say the DA also requested the demolition of the existing dwelling which, as previously reported by The Echo, was going to be offered to the Bangalow Showgrounds.

Single parents protest cuts As part of a national day of action, a protest was held on Saturday at the Brunswick Heads Centrelink office against cuts to support payments for single parents and their children. Spearheading the event was NSW Greens spokesperson for Family and Community Services, Jan Barham, who said, ‘When the federal Labor government decided that from January 1 this year all single parents would move from the Parenting Payment onto Newstart as soon as their youngest child turns eight, they created negative impacts for those parents and their children. This move resulted in cuts of $60 to $120 per week for those important but already disadvantaged members of our community and it is unacceptable.’ She also says Newstart is almost 40 per cent below the poverty line. In response, federal Labor MP for Richmond. Justine Elliott told The Echo, ‘I’ll continue to raise these concerns within the government. The government’s changes to the parenting payment ended the two-tiered system introduced by the Howard government, which meant that new single parents went onto Newstart, but allowed the ones already on parenting payments to stay on them. This meant that people in similar situations were receiving different payments. ‘This government’s changes mean single parents whose

youngest child is turning eight this year, and couples whose youngest child is turning six, will now be under the same rules as parents who began receiving parenting payment after July 2006. It’s important to

remember the other assistance available to parents such as the Family Tax Benefit, SchoolKids Bonus, Rent Assistance and child care subsidies such as Child Care Benefit and Child Care Rebate.’

Ms Barham says that on the next parliament sitting day, she’ll call on the Commonwealth government to increase the maximum single rate of Newstart by at least $50 per week in the 201314 federal budget.

NRRRL investigates racial slur allegations at Mullum match A shadow has been cast over the 2013 opening of the Northern Rivers Regional Rugby League (NRRRL) season as accusations of racial vilification during a reserves match spread through the league. Last week, a local media outlet published excerpts of an online social media exchange that accused Mullumbimby Giants players of using racist taunts against Indigenous Ballina Seagulls players at the end of last Sunday’s game at Les Donnelly Field in Mullumbimby. It was also reported that Giants players left the field ‘with minutes on the clock’ and that all but one refused to shake hands with their Ballina counterparts, who easily won the match. Subsequently a formal

complaint has been made to the NRRRL about the behaviour of some of the Mullum Giants players. NRRRL president Brian Rix says that these types of accusations are taken very seriously by the league and will be thoroughly investigated. Mr Rix says letters have been sent to the two clubs in regard to the accusations. ‘We have sent a letter of complaint to Mullumbimby and asked for a reply,’ he said. ‘We have also sent a letter to Ballina asking for an explanation.’ Mr Rix says that though the NRRRL certainly does not condone any of the type of behaviour laid out in the accusations, there is no set penalty for a team or club found guilty in

this situation. An Indigenous player from another Ballina team who was watching the match told The Echo he saw Mullum walk off the ground but he did not himself hear any racial slurs or hear any spoken about in the

dressing room. ‘We usually get on well with the Mullum side,’ said the man, who preferred to remain nameless. ‘There was a bit of rough play during the reserves and Mullum walked off, but that happens. It happens a lot; it’s not that unusual.’

Broken Head’s Seven Mile Beach gets a cleanup Anneli Knight

Seven Mile Beach at Broken Head was a hive of activity on Sunday April 7 as the local Mermaid MerPod and Tangaroa Blue led a group of 35 volunteers, including pro surfer Dave Rastavich on a beach cleanup as part of ongoing events in the area. The MerPod have been one of the local groups cleaning up this stretch of beach since November 2011 when they first removed 200kg of debris.

After recent big swells washed marine debris onto the beach’s northerly corner, the MerPod decided that this was to going be an annual cleanup A total of 433kg was collected in just one hour from 1.2km of beach. During the cleanup volunteers found chunks of rusted metal that revealed themselves after the recent massive storms and a backlog of rubbish that had swept up a small creek after the last high tide. Volunteers reported feeling like they

MP calls on Tweed chamber pres to quit Luis Feliu

the show while trying to be a faceless man too’. But Mr Curtis said his comments to a local media outlet last week, offering to throw his ‘full support’ behind National Party candidate Matthew Fraser, were made ‘as an individual’ and not as chamber president. Mr Curtis told The Echo he had later ‘clarified’ the endorsement with the media outlet

that it was said as ‘an individual’ during the campaign launch of Mr Fraser. But Mrs Elliot stuck to her guns, saying Mr Curtis was ‘entitled to be an active member of the National Party, but as president speaking on behalf of the chamber he’s now crossed the line and can no longer be considered politically impartial’. Mr Curtis said he won’t quit

his role as head of the chamber ‘but I am retiring at the end of my term in July’. He added that he ‘used to vote Labor but the relationship is now fractured’.

Federal Richmond candidate Matthew Fraser’s campaign launch for the Nationals was overshadowed last week by a scathing attack on Tweed businessman and chamber of commerce president Rory Curtis. Sitting Labor MP Justine Elliot called on him to quit his Tweed chamber post for ‘compromising its once non-partisan reputation’. Mrs Elliot said that by overtly backing her political opponent in the upcoming federal election, Mr Curtis had politicised the chamber he is president of. She has also attacked him for ‘intentionally trying to hide his National Party loyalties and membership’ from the media and the public. She revealed he has been the chairman of the Nationals’ Richmond Electorate Council Spotted early on Monday morning in Mullum – some wag has for the past two years, saying augmented Tweed based Nationals candidate Matthew Fraser with that he was therefore ‘running his corporate branding (Mr Fraser owns two franchises in Tweed). www.echo.net.au <echowebsection=Local News>

Boutique beers celebrated Want a taste of some of Australia’s top boutique beers? For twelve days from April 22, the Hotel Great Northern will countdown the top twelve beers in the country. Each beer will be on tap on a different day and the winner will be announced on May 3. Great Northern bottle shop manager Luke Mooney says ‘Craft beers has seen a huge rise in popularity in recent years. Increasingly people are wanting to try interesting and a diverse styles of beer. They want to know where their

beer is made and who makes it. Supporting local and independent craft breweries is the logical step for those who want to look outside the square.’ He says while the list is kept secret, there will be a wide range of styles in the countdown. ‘We’re proud to be encouraging craft beer in the area,’ he adds. ‘The Hotel Great Northern is the only pub north of Newcastle and south of Brisbane to be participating.’ For more visit beerloversguide.com.au.

Maca castle gears up for big changes Story & photo Eve Jeffery

The Macadamia Castle is preparing for major changes. As the Tintenbar to Ewingsdale Highway upgrade edges closer to its 2014 completion date, the tourist attraction is set to expand. Tony Gilding of the castle last week announced a major expansion and refurbishment program. The program is in part funded by two grants from the federal government’s tourism industry assistance schemes. The total project budget is in excess of $500,000 and the funding assistance from the federal government is $227,475. The balance will be funded by the Macadamia Castle. The new highway is planned to open in late 2014, bypassing the castle, which is not taking this challenge lying down and will use these federal funds to continue its 38 year improvement program. Mr Gilding said that there had been worries as the highway upgrade got closer to its completion, but the expansion at the castle has helped allay those fears. ‘It was a concern for us but now we feel very confident that we will be able to maintain the Macadamia Castle and continue to grow it over the next decade.’ Part of the grant money will go towards the construction of

three undercover areas to increase comfort for visitors at the castle. The areas will be strategically positioned throughout the six acre Animal Park. ‘They will allow us to guarantee all weather facilities to local school and community groups,’ says Tony. The other project involves an educational frog conservation pod run in association with Southern Cross University. It will serve the dual functions of education about the importance of saving our local frogs as well as being a program to

breed and release local endangered frogs. Southern Cross University amphibian expert Dr David Newel will oversee the froggy project. ‘The Frog Pod will be only the second of its kind in NSW,’ said Dr Newell. ‘It will provide a vital educational and research facility to help promote and conserve the frogs of the northern rivers.’ Dr Newell say the pod will provide a quarantine facility that will greatly assist research on endangered rainforest frogs, while allowing for public dis-

play. ‘The project represents a significant financial investment by Tony in order to achieve conservation outcomes. While it is early days yet, the facility will also provide significant opportunities for students studying environmental science at SCU and ultimately may allow us to release captive bred frogs back into the wild.’ For more information visit www.macadamiacastle.com.au.

TEK* callout to artists

Greens MP attacks AVN Chris Dobney

Digital artist callout: Adam and Techa from Kulchajam are inviting all multimedia operators to apply for showcase events planned between Uki, Byron Bay and Lismore. Photo Jeff Dawson

Artist collectives across the northern rivers are banding together to present a major digital arts event in 2013 and are inviting regional artists to get involved. The Electronic Konvergence (TEK*) is set to cultivate and showcase the region’s ‘tech stars’, in a series of showcase events between Uki, Byron Bay and Lismore. Initiated by Byron Bay cultural hub Kulchajam and funded by Arts NSW Regional Partnerships program, TEK* is a festival style collaboration

between Kulchajam, Serpentine Community Gallery in Lismore, Ukitopia Arts Collective in Uki and dLux Media Arts in Sydney. It will all run over the last two weeks of June. Whether you’re working in a traditional medium and want to expand into electronic arts; if you’re already a digital artist; or if you want to experiment with technology, the collective would love to hear from you. There will be opportunities for artists to put proposals for digital arts presentations as

well as a series of workshops to provide exposure to cutting edge digital arts technologies. Tek* creative director, Techa Beaumont of Kulchajam, said, ‘We are proud to be working together with artists across the northern rivers to bring the world’s most cutting edge digital arts and technologies to the region and initiate some major regional collaboration that will change the way we make art.’ Artists can register their interest at www.tekstar.tv or visit www.kulchajam.org.

Claire supports defence force families The loss of defence force personnel affects not only immediate families but entire communities. Claire Skipper, from the Gold Coast, knows all too well how the tragedy of war affects families – she lost her brother in 2007 while he was serving in Afghanistan. ‘He was planning life after retirement from the British Army but he died just one month before the end of his final tour of duty,’ the thirty year old said. To raise awareness and money for those left with the grief and loss, she’s leaving Cape

Byron Lighthouse for a 100km walk, on Thursday April 18 at 9am. She aims to be in Surfers Paradise four days later. Proceeds will be going to a new charity providing financial assistance, called the Australian Defence Force Assistance Trust. ‘My brother had served in a lot of places including Iraq, Bosnia and Afghanistan,’ she said. ‘It was often hard watching him cope with the stresses of war and of course nothing prepares you for the news that they won’t be coming home at all. Because of Darren, I be-

came interested in the issues associated with post traumatic stress disorder, physical rehabilitation and the care that the families of Australian Defence Force members receive. If I can raise awareness for the Australian Defence Force Assistance Trust through doing this walk, then it will honour the memory of Darren and his mates.’ For more visit www.adfassistancetrust.org.au.

$40m crime prevention funds up for grabs Richmond MP Justine Elliot has encouraged local councils and not-for-profit community groups to apply for grants available under a new $40 million National Crime Prevention Fund announced last week by the prime minister Julia Gillard and minister for home affairs and minister for justice Jason Clare. The fund will target crime hotspots, and will fund local councils for security infrastructure like closed-circuit television (CCTV) systems and lighting. It will also support youth mentoring and outreach programs run by not-for-profit community organisations. Ms Elliot said that this was a great opportunity for local councils and not-for-profit www.echo.net.au

groups to fund local crime prevention projects. ‘As a community we know what will work locally. This program gives us the chance to work together to reduce crime,’ Ms Elliott said. The grants are being funded by assets seized from criminals under the Proceeds of Crime Fund. ‘We’re taking money seized from criminals and using it to reduce crime in the community,’ said Mr Clare at the program’s launch.

CCTV funding As well as the grants available to councils and community groups, $5 million will be used to expand Father Riley’s Youth off the Streets Outreach Service, and $5 million will be made available for projects run

by Police Citizen Youth Clubs (PCYCs) and Blue Light organisations. Applications for grants will open in the first week of May, and will be open for four weeks. Projects must be completed by the end of June 2015.

Mayor pre TEDx To provide a taste of the upcoming TEDxByronBay event on April 20, mayor Simon Richardson will be sharing his vision for Byron Bay and playing his favourite TED Talks on a screen from 5.30pm on Tuesday April 16 at the Office Collective in the Byron Arts and Industry Estate. RSVP is essential. Phone Karly on 6685 8006 or visit www.tedtueday. eventbrite.com.

Another attack has been launched on the Australian Vaccination Network, this time from a most unexpected quarter. NSW Greens MP Dr John Kaye has said that the state government must take aim against the ‘voodoo claims and conspiracy theories’ that he accuses the network, among others, of spreading. He was speaking after new statistics released last week showed that together with some of Sydney’s most exclusive suburbs, Byron and Ballina shires have among the lowest vaccination rates in the state. Less than 85 per cent of children in our region have been vaccinated, leading Dr Kaye to state that ‘educated people’ were ‘falling prey to misinformation’. Dr Kaye recognised that in taking the stand he would fall foul of some Greens voters but told The Echo Friday, ‘I welcome the diversity of the debate that comes from the north coast but where the health and safety of children is concerned there is an overriding public health responsibility to ensure all children are vaccinated.’

And other users who want to upgrade to fibre will be able to do so.

The question is not whether the Turnbull system will become obsolete but when. by Mungo MacCallum the possibility of upgrading to ten times that amount. Turnbull is offering just 25 Mbps for seven out of every ten homes, with the hope – and it is no more than that – that in some cases it might be as high as 50. This, he says, is more than enough for the average household. And indeed it is – for now. But the one certainty about the information age is that demand increases at a quite phenomenal speed. In the two years of 2011 and 2012 Australian downloads trebled, and with new applications and devices becoming both available and affordable on an almost daily basis, this rate of increase can only accelerate. The question is not whether the Turnbull system will become obsolete but when; and critically, whether this will happen before the existing copper wiring wears out of its own accord and has to be replaced. Some people and institutions

So, do we continue to adopt the piecemeal approach and charge each individual for bringing the fibre to the home, or do we reassemble the entire workforce at government expense to do the job that could have and should have been done several years earlier as part of the original package, and therefore at far less overall cost? Turnbull and Abbott, who have been selling themselves on their skill and experience as prudent money managers, are silent on the subject, and so they bloody well should be. Their plan is not just short sighted to the point of terminal myopia; it is economic lunacy – vandalism, in fact – and will put the kind of brake on Australia’s development and productivity that Kim JongUn could only dream of. Comparing it with the real NBN proposed by Labor is not just apples and oranges, chalk and cheese; it is the difference between the wheelbarrow and the Very Fast Train, between the hot air balloon and space flight. Speaking of which, in the same week as the opposition unveiled its broadband plan, the government was talking about the VFT and space satellite policy. While Turnbull and Abbott (cheaper, sooner, easier) were singing along to the chorus to the ancient Scottish ballad of Loch Lomond: ‘Oh, ye’ll take the high road and I’ll take the low road, And I’ll be in Scotland afore ye.’ And indeed the singer was; but unfortunately he was also dead – past his useby date, history. Still, it sounded good at the time.

the hapless individuals how ever many thousand dollars it costs to reach their premises. And the user pays system will extend further than that, with different rates applying to the cities and the bush. The Nationals may well have something to say about that, and if Warren Truss doesn’t, you can bet that Barnaby Joyce will. So although Broadband Lite will certainly arrive sooner than Broadband Super, there will be plenty of catches in the fine print, and quite a few expenses Turnbull appears not have factored in: a fair chunk of the heavily touted savings will prove to be illusory. And of course, eventually – probably within ten years, according to the boffins – they will disappear altogether.

Pothole secrets revealed

Pothole Growing For Pleasure And Profit is a new book which reveals, for the first time, the arcane and esoteric secrets of growing these mysterious organisms. Knowledge, jealously guarded for centuries by the secret brotherhood of council road workers, has now been made public so that anyone can enjoy this most satisfying of pastimes. Written in a most engaging fashion by recently retired Byron Shire Council employee, Phil Fuller, it points out, among Anandan Mcewen many other useful facts, that Goonengerry the material that road workers put into existing potholes to fill them is not actually tarmac, as Many thanks The Cancer Council NSW is generally believed, but ferwould like to thank the Byron Shire businesses, organisations, and what we can do about it. schools, entertainers and com- Just as importantly it will give munity members that were in- us the opportunity to have a volved in the Byron Shire Relay chat and meet our neighbours, For Life held at Mullumbimby a good thing in itself – and who on March 16–17.

Mining meeting

Being a member of the generation on the long slow glide down to the runway, as a friend disarmingly puts it, I am ashamed of the mass of environmental problems we are leaving our children and grandchildren. We cannot afford to make many more mistakes and mining for coal seam gas could well be one of them. Although the companies involved appear to be regrouping it would be wrong to think they have gone away. The meeting for Myocum/ Tyagarah residents at the Mullumbimby Civic Hall on Tuesday April 16 will be an opportunity to learn just what is involved in this type of mining, the potential risks for our area

tiliser. And this is clearly evidenced by the fact that after a good rain shower, the fertiliser disappears and the pothole reappears bigger, deeper and, in the opinion of Mr Fuller, more beautiful than ever. He compares them to snowflakes, in that no two are the same. And some people, Phil says, are so attracted to the abstract and random shapes, that they decorate them with brightly coloured paint in the middle of the night, which simply adds to their loveliness. Mr Fuller will launch his book and give practical demonstrations of his skills at 12 noon tomorrow, about halfway along Myocum Road, next to the mangled wreck of

a car that had the temerity to hit one of Mr Fuller’s favourite potholes, a real beauty about 500mm across and 300mm deep. Drivers are so inconsiderate, he laments. While he concedes that the potential market for his book may be quite small and restricted to true pothole lovers such as himself, he insists that it was a book that had been growing inside him for many years, and just had to be written. However, after much soul-searching, Mr Fuller has decided not to rely just on his future literary efforts for a living, but to invest his superannuation in a Pedders Suspension franchise.

the record, I do not disagree with gay marriage, and think that if that is what they want, then they should be entitled to do so. It is not, however, up to Simon Richardson to use council resources to lobby or in any way make petitions to have this law changed. Local government should not concern itself with this issue, and to do so is a misuse of council resources. One has only to drive around our roads to see where the money should be spent!

Abbot’s ‘wage flexibility’ is code for driving wages down, where a fair day’s work will not earn a fair day’s pay. This is not the Australian way. Most people you meet in the service industries in the USA are paid only $5–$8 an hour. Skilled US car assembly workers earn a measly $12 an hour, and commercial airline pilots are paid as little as $20,000 a year! The United States solution to competing with low overseas wages is to create their own underclass – tens of millions of working poor, kept in control by legions of underpaid police. Sixty million people have no health insurance. Corporate profits have never been higher, but it’s not getting back to the people. If governments don’t redistribute wealth, who does? Not the one per cent, that’s for sure. ‘Business as usual’ will not get us out of the massive multi-trillion dollar global debt.

Proud of the Boomerang Festival I would like to respond to the letter by Sky Wesolowski in last week’s Echo. A little more due diligence on her part would have discovered the following. That the Arakwal elders approve the Boomerang Festival at the Tyagarah Tea Tree site next October long weekend. Within consultation – it is not

required to consult with the entire Bundjalung people – all social and cultural protocols have been followed. Rhoda Roberts is Australia’s most honoured and respected Indigenous arts presenter. She worked on the Sydney Olympic games in presenting the opening Indigenous ceremony. Has been the artis-

tic director of Arnhem land’s Garma Festival. Created the Dreaming Festival on the Woodford site and was its artistic director for many years. Is the Indigenous artistic director at the Sydney Opera House, having recently presented the Message Stick festival there, and she is a Bundjalung woman. There is no one in Australia with better credentials to be the artistic director of the Boomerang Festival – period. I am so proud to be in partnership with her to present this event. As proud Australians, in respect and action for the apology, we will back her with our professionalism to present what we envisage as the soon to be premier Indigenous festival in this country. This event is perfect for Byron and will make all citizens of our shire proud – even those with misgivings or sour grapes. We already are leaders here in reconciliation. We now intend to take this to another level. It is an honour to bring Rhoda Roberts home to country. Please be sure in future, before criticising, that facts have been checked, as Rhoda is an absolute shining asset to our region – and a person who

we can all be proud of. Peter Noble

Festival Director Q As a proud Widjubul woman

and the artistic director of the Festival I can only speak for myself and not for the entire Bundjalung nation, but I do believe the Boomerang Festival is a good story. With the guidance and support of the local custodians, the Arakwal of the Bundjalung nation, Boomerang Festival was launched with the desire to promote a time for unity and providing a voice, a new dialogue through the expression of our artists, knowledge keepers, custodians and local community, for all sectors of our society to witness, engage and participate in. The naming of the event is based on the reclamation of the returning boomerang that has become an iconic symbol for Australians but originally held a place in the cultural, social and spiritual life of many of the nations, homelands and estates on the NSW east coast. It’s a wonderful symbol of retuning and gathering. The festival is just that, and as the founder and former artistic director of the acclaimed Dreaming Festival (1995–2009) my desire was to develop a similar successful and sustainable model on country, the lands of my people, the Bundjalung. With the support of Peter Noble, his generous and visionary backing, the Boomerang Festival is all about engaging, sharing and celebrating the similarities we have and discovering the unknown. When we hear music, witness ancient dance, and stomp to the sounds of our oldest instruments, we are providing a unique platform for expression, inclusive of local and international stories, and basically it’s just so much bigger than us as individuals. I applaud the tenacity of those across the region developing culturally related opportunities for our people and I am incredibly proud that Lewis Walker also has developed a successful ongoing event through sheer passion and the desire to share our culture, with Julinbah Yowarl Rainbow Corroboree. As Sky Wesolowski mentions in her letter the Rainbow Corroboree event has a unique spirit and potential to grow and bring some real long term benefits to our wider community. As we move forward the Boomerang Festival extends a hand to all. It’s not about wads of money; currently the festival receives no government support or donations. Peter Noble and I simply believe the time is right to be committed to ensuring social, spiritual and cultural buoyancy for us all to learn, grow and maintain.

Government’ spending. (In the longer term we need a sustainable, ‘stable state’ system – but that’s a pipe-dream in the current economic climate.) The Greens have the best policy balance, but are so feared they are treated as pariahs by both sides of Parliament, and their stocks are falling. This is not America. We have a real chance to maintain a fair and free society, but it won’t come by electing a conservative government. I’ll be voting Green, with first preference to Labor. With only 150 days to the election, I’d love to get a shire conversation going through the letters pages. Michael Balson

Maggie’s legacy

Margaret Thatcher’s right wing revolution was responsible for creating generations of welfare dependent families. As a result of her crusade unemployment doubled and so too did the crime rate. Cohesive workingclass communities were ravaged never to recover. She was a war criminal who ordered the sinking of an Argentinean ship killing 323 sailors while knowing it to be sailing away from the battle area. The woman was prepared to do anything to boost her flagging popularity. I won’t be celebrating her passing until Thatcherism as an ideology disappears. Luckily I am a patient man so three years of Tony Abbott I will uncomfortably survive. Alan Hainsworth

Please slow down

This isn’t the first and probably won’t be the last letter on this subject – zebra crossings in Mullum. The other week (must’ve been Easter Thursday) I was just on one of the zebra crossings in Mullum and, on this same day, not one but two cars didn’t stop as I was crossing. Both these drivers didn’t seem to look or see if anyone was on the crossing, and hadn’t even slowed down. The traffic laws stipulate that if a person is on a crossing you must stop. Most people who drive in Mullum do stop, even when anyone is approaching a crossing, and thank you all. Please, all drivers in Mullum, slow down and get ready to stop when approaching the zebra crossings in the future. Paul Brecht

World agendas

‘Land, because of its unique nature and the crucial role it plays in human settlements, cannot be treated as an ordinary asset, controlled by individuals and subject to the pressures and inefficiencies of the market. Private land ownership is also a principal instrument of accumulation and concentration of wealth and therefore contributes to social injustice; if unchecked, it may become a major obstacle in the planning and implementation of development schemes. Social justice, urban renewal and development, the provision of decent dwellings – and healthy conditions for the people – can only be achieved if land is used in the interests of society as a whole.’ Translated: If you work hard all your life, pay your taxes, pay off your mortgage, eventually own your own home and land you are are being socially unjust.

Mullumbimby Q I have enjoyed Peggy Balfour’s Agenda 21 conspiracy letters and Sapoty Brook’s intelligent reply. For the millions of people starving to death during this week’s edition of The Echo, Peggy Balfour’s nightmare future of us all living in high-rise buildings with views of nature would seem heavenly. All those wealthy western powerbrokers who put Agenda 21 together years ago have already been overtaken by our greatest enemies (before we discovered Arabs) the communists, who have scores of millions of people living in high-density, high-rise towers in China. Those communists long ago took away private property rights and local government sovereignty with total government control over everyone’s lives and they now control much of the world’s economy. It looks like communism was a faster way of doing it then the capitalists and their Agenda 21. In the western world vast numbers are living in high-density, highrise towers and they paid a lot of money to do so. Much more important is North Korea’s coming nuclear attacks on US bases in South Korea and Japan. This young dictator knows that nuclear weapons exploding in the atmosphere will burn out all the electrical components that western civilisation depends upon. The destruction of the power and communication systems of South Korea and Japan will be a death blow to the world’s faltering economy with collapse of the financial markets. North Korea likely

To boldly go off-planet: do we have the right attitude? In a series on ‘final frontiers’ on The Conversation theconversation.com, Alice Gorman looks at our chances at space-faring or many advocates of space exploration, the Solar System is the answer to human woes. As we exhaust our terrestrial resources, face overpopulation and stare down the barrel of rising sea levels, moving off-planet holds as many promises as it does challenges. Already we have left our cultural footprint in the Solar System, from the teeming satellites in Earth orbit and landing sites on the Moon, Mars and Venus, to the Voyager spacecraft at the edge of the Solar System. And access to space is slowly moving out of the hands of national governments with the rise of commercial spaceflight development, and the growth of the space tourism market. In general, we don’t think of the space environment in the same way as Earth’s. There are several reasons for this. One is the common perception of space as a black, empty vacuum. Second, unlike Earth, space is practically infinite — beyond our sun there are billions of others just like it, even in our ‘unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy’. Then there is the absence of life, as far as we know – although there is always hope

www.echo.net.au

that this might change with further exploration. Until that happens, there is nothing living to suffer from any human activities in space. Effectively, there is no need to consider human impacts on the space environment seriously. Historically, space has been seen as the very last frontier, ripe for colonial conquest. Just as on Earth, the motivations for colonisation are not just about curiosity, or an ‘urge to explore’, but about finding new resources to exploit for terrestrial markets. The unstated rationale behind this draws heavily on western anthropocentric ideas of the mastery of creation – the assumption that the nonhuman world is there for our use. This instrumental view is still very prevalent in the way the space industry justifies its activities. It’s also a matter of ‘out of sight; out of mind’. When we look outwards from the surface of our planet at night the things that arrest our attention tend to be the stars of deep space. Unless you know what you’re looking for you might not even identify the other planets in our solar system, let alone the human-made satellites and space stations. Of course it doesn’t help

that so few people have actually experienced space itself. And for many of them, the revelation of space was actually one of Earth. The vision of the ‘whole Earth’ was first seen by the lunar-orbiting Apollo 8 mission in 1968. The image of the blue-and-white planet, a marble-sized splash of colour in the inky blackness, emphasised the fragility of life on Earth, and was responsible for the growth of a global ecological awareness. In all of this, the intrinsic values of the space environment, in and of itself, have been frequently overlooked. While the need for an environmental ethics of space has long been recognised, there is little evidence that space industry has moved beyond a purely anthropocentric perspective. On Earth, the concept of ‘nature’ having value in its own right, independent of human use, is no longer problematic. Australian philosopher Val Plumwood has been at the forefront of a movement to break down moral distinctions between humans and nature. Plumwood argues that nature has its own agency or autonomy, and should be reconceived as a co-participant in human endeavour rather than

something on which we are dependent. In her view, we pay attention to the resources offered by the environment, and the limits they impose on our activities, ‘only after disaster has occurred’ and then only to ‘fix things up’. Dependency appears as a source of anxiety or threat, or as a further technological problem to be overcome’. Never has this statement been more applicable than to the problem of orbital debris or space junk. Our use of Earth orbit to place the satellites on which we now depend for telecommunications, weather, and navigation has created a seemingly irreversible environmental crisis – space so filled with junk that we are at risk of losing our access to it. Even so, the problem is still framed from an anthropocentric and geocentric perspective: in other words, how will it affect the Earth? The value of this apparently empty space is conceived entirely in terms of human use. Could we argue that it has intrinsic value – and as such is a place towards which we have a moral obligation? The issue is perhaps clearer when we consider other planets. The view that inanimate

<echowebsection=Letters>

celestial bodies have a right to exist undisturbed has been called ‘cosmic preservationism’. One of the arguments is that the uniqueness of these planetary landscapes creates intrinsic value. There is no doubt – as human space exploration has repeatedly proven – that each object in space has its own story to tell. And indeed, we really know so little of the solar system that it is hard to tell what is unique and what is common. However, critics of cosmic preservationism claim it leads to the absurd position of rocks on Mars having rights. In order to continue as a space-faring species, and even perhaps to continue to live on Earth, we have to find sustainable ways to use the resources of space to survive. This means water, oxygen and minerals, all of which exist in various quantities spread across planets and asteroids. Already, the technologies and structures we may need to mine the moon and asteroids are being considered. Our very presence on other celestial bodies, whether in human form or through robot avatars, changes them. They are altered physically, and also conceptually, becoming part of a human cultural landscape in

a new way. We cannot land, sample, build colonies or mines and whisk away as if nothing happened – our chemical and mechanical traces are now part of the planet. At this stage of human space exploration such impacts are minimal, and no doubt acceptable. But this won’t always be the case. Already, the international geological community is heralding the arrival of a new epoch – the Anthropocene. Human impacts on the Earth have reached the scale where they are defining a distinct geological layer. Will we have the same level of impact on the rest of the solar system too? Perhaps the answer is to take up Plumwood’s challenge and abandon the opposition of nature and culture. This allows an acknowledgement of intrinsic value in the space environment that need not take priority over human interests, but can be managed by a critical assessment of competing interests. An ethic of respect for the wonders of the solar system of which we are an integral part should not be that hard to achieve. Q Alice Gorman is Lecturer in Archaeology at Flinders University

A safe bikeway

I have a dream of a safe mostly on road bikeway from Suffolk Park to town as Karin Kolbe wrote about in letters last week. It is more important in my view than the bypass. This stretch of road is not only very busy with our children cycling to and from their schools, but used by many different people of all ages. We travel up and down our NSW coastline from Noosa to Seal Rocks twice a year visiting most small towns, some of which have good bikeways, but it is only when we arrive back in Byron and travel the stretch from the Green Garage roundabout to Suffolk that we see so many cyclists. It’s actually a joy to see and gives us a sense of loving this place and being glad to be home. When I was on the bikeway committee (eight years) we did many surveys along this stretch of road listing the number, type, age, time, place, etc, but after all our efforts nothing changed. There was a serious accident a few months ago with an elderly male cyclist crossing over from the bikeway to Cemetery Road. I witnessed his injuries and sat with him until the ambulance came. Living in LilliPilli I do not cycle any more, nor do a lot of people my age because this route to town is too dangerous to risk accident. It’s not that we are not fit enough or do not believe in cycling; we heal slower and value our independence too much, so we have to walk or drive. We need to have a wide, safe bikeway with bikes having priority. At present to cycle along

the bikeway/footpath from Cemetery Road to Green Garage roundabout you have ten feeder roads to contend with, with the traffic having right of way! It gets worse on the way to Suffolk; there is one spot where there is no verge at all for cyclists to travel off the road. My friend’s daughter on her way to the high school was knocked off her bike three months ago. I would like to start a group to get a good bikeway happening. Please email me at maggimoss@mullum.com.au if you are interested in joining or have any better ideas. Maggi Luke

Local rail needed

The federal government’s report into High Speed Rail (HSR) connecting east coast cities, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, at a cost of around $114 billion is very interesting. While Australia certainly needs a 21st century rail system, it’s not anticipated that anything will be done for many decades and this cost will almost certainly double or triple. Some local politicians have pointed out in glowing terms how wonderful it will be for northern rivers people to be connected to the Gold Coast and Brisbane by HSR. Well, for future generations, that is. If local politicians really believed (or had been listening to their constituents) the northern rivers should be connected to the Gold Coast and Brisbane by rail, it could be done in a few years at minimal cost using our existing Casino to Murwillumbah rail corridor (value estimated at around $4b) and building the 22 kilometres of line from Murwillumbah to Coolangatta. If 50 kilometres of four lane highway can be built over very difficult terrian in less than a decade for $1 billion, 22 kilometres of rail line should be a doddle. Should the HSR ever be

With her spiritual teacher, well-known author Nana Veary, Brenda met privately with the Dalai Lama when he visited the Hawaiian islands. An authority on lomilomi massage, she helped create one of its definitive texts Hawaiian Massage, Lomilomi – Sacred Touch of Aloha.

A teacher of the charismatic built, it will only stop at major cities and a commuter train service will be needed to connect people to it. While a commuter train to Brisbane would not be as fast as the HSR, it would be much faster and more accessible than the options we have at the moment. It can take the best part of a day to get to Brisbane on public transport and you need to be extremely fit to undertake the many bus changes, with or without luggage. If only we could rely on politicians to honour their pre-election promises the commuter service from Casino to Murwillumbah would be up and running.

Needless to say, none of these promises has been honoured. But Barry O’Farrell and the federal government can always find truckloads of money for freeways, tunnels and rail lines in and around Sydney, even in sparsely populated areas. The terrible disadvantage northern rivers people are suffering due to lack of decent public transport has been well documented and this needs to be rectified now, at minimal cost using existing infrustructure, not in 2050.

1973 Aquarius Festival – to the best of my recollection tain I experienced at Aquarius, is of standing in the main street of Nimbin one night with hundreds of other people and chanting:

By Dr Harry Freeman, as told to Graham Askey ‘Memory is not false in the sense that it is wilfully bad, but it is excitingly corrupt in its inclination to make a proper story of the past’. – Jenni Diski In 1971 Dr Harry Freeman was a third year registrar psychiatrist, working at Broughton Hall, a large psychiatric hospital in Sydney. Being young and so a bit of a rebel, he was a part of the ‘Anti-Psychiatry’ movement, popularised at that time by radical Scottish psychiatrist Ronnie Laing. So much so that he had written up a whole issue on the topic in the University of NSW’s student rag Tharunka, then edited by Graeme Dunstan. Some time during the hatching of the 1973 Aquarius Festival Graeme realised that his festival might need a ‘resident’, so he called for the doctor. The following are Harry’s corrupted case notes from that time.

Bring your own doctors Late in 1972, dressed to impress in sandals, jeans, and a scruffy Gandhi shirt, I walked into the office of Brian Mahaffey, manager of the Lismore Base Hospital, sat down and told him I wanted the defunct Nimbin hospital to be reopened as an emergency department for the duration of our festival. Brian jumped straight up and said, ‘Yes – just bring your own doctors’. I thought that was unexpectedly brave of him, but on the way out it came to me! The image of ‘Wavy Gravy’ warning the Woodstock peace and love multitudes that – ‘the brown acid that is circulating around us isn’t too good’. Brian must have seen the movie too, so he expected waves of freaked-out hippies on bad trips. Rather

than overcrowding his own hospital, he wisely figured that it’d be better to keep them far away in Nimbin with their own shrinks to take care of them. Just before Christmas that year, accompanied by my sister and Bill Garner (Helen’s hubby) I paid my first visit to Nimbin. The only businesses still going were the post office, Barney Stewart’s produce store, Daisy’s milk bar, two petrol stations, the newsagents and a parttime hairdresser. The town was so quiet that all of the law issues could be handled by a weekly, Saturday morning, visit from solicitor Doug Page (son of Country Party founder, Earl) and order could be maintained by just one cop, Constable Bob Marsh. He had so little to do he had time to moonlight as a knacker in the then disused buttery (now thriving as the Bush Factory). Tired and worn out after a long day doing the main drag we decided that there was nothing for it but to head for the pub in the hope of a bite to eat, a bottle of wine and a good lie down. ‘Sorry we don’t do food. Plonk – not much call for that around here, mate. Rooms

– haven’t been used in donkeys.’ We city slickers weren’t having any of that, so eventually the publican’s wife served us some sandwiches in the ladies’ lounge, a dusty bottle of brown muscat was found and we were ushered upstairs to some derelict bedrooms with saggy beds. Just for one night you must understand.

No takers Five months later, come the festival, I was set up, along with fellow medicos, Dr John Geake and Dr Igor Petroff, in the newly reopened Nimbin Hospital and ready to cope with anything the city dope scene, on a country holiday, could throw at me. No one came. We had no consultations. Alice must have left the brown pills behind. So with nothing to do I headed off on my red Honda step-through to find the festival. Someone else didn’t have much to do either because police officer Bob, remember Bob, immediately arrested me for riding without a helmet, but being the good cop that he was, he let me off with a warning and I didn’t have to go to court in the morning.

The best of it Some other memories I have of the festival, those which I can still bring to mind are: Feeling that the peace and love image of the festival was going to die before it had hardly been born when a gungho raid by the police in the camp site provoked a riot and one of their guns went missing. Being blown away listening to musician Dollar Brand playing on the town’s ancient upright piano. He found all the right notes on an instrument that didn’t have any. Meeting deputy federal Opposition leader, Doug Anthony, decked out in the full tropical rig of a light blue safari suit, short trousers, and long white socks. Just the thing for downtown Murwillumbah, but among the ‘kaftan and beads’ Aquarius crowd he stood out so much that I can’t recall what his wife Margo was wearing. They had just rocked up, without any security or minders, to the festival, just for a look see. Pollies were braver in those days. However my fondest reminiscence, the one that really brings forth the feelings of fun and camaraderie that I’m cer-

After the festival ended Dr Freeman went to see Barney Stewart, also the town’s real estate agent. With six of his friends he purchased a communal property of 210 acres out on Crofton Road for $9,000. The ever versatile Barney coined them a name and even painted the sign for them – ‘Paradise Valley’. Dr Harry did a locum at the Lismore Base Hospital just after the 74 floods and moved up to the north coast permanently in 1975. He still practises anti-

psychiatry at the Base. Despite the lack of bad trips during the festival the Nimbin Hospital has remained open to this day. The noteless upright piano is no more. Margo Anthony, herself a concert pianist, generously played at many fundraisers to help replace it. Harry will be playing the new grand piano with the reformed Blue Skies Dance Orchestra at the 40th Anniversary Aquarius Masquerade Ball in the Nimbin Town Hall on Saturday 25 May 25.

Scientists study secrets of ‘moreishness’ London [PAA]

Scientists are starting to unravel the mystery of moreishness – why some snacks seem impossible to eat in small amounts. It is the phenomenon that explains why it can be so difficult to dip into a crisps packet without polishing off all the contents. Likewise, a single bite of chocolate may prove waist-expandingly fatal. Some might call it greed, but another name for such behaviour is ‘hedonic hyperphagia’. ‘That’s the scientific term for eating to excess for pleasure rather than hunger,’ said expert Tobias Hoch, who presented findings from a study of hungry rats to the annual meeting of the American Chemical Society in New Orleans. ‘It’s recreational over-eating that may occur in almost everyone at some time in www.echo.net.au

life. And the chronic form is a key factor in the epidemic of overweight and obesity.’ Hoch and his team from the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg in Germany scanned the brains of rats as they ate potato chips or ordinary chow pellets. The rats were far more keen on the crisps, despite the fat and carbs mixture containing the

same number of calories. Standard pellets were the least popular food. ‘The effect of potato chips on brain activity, as well as feeding behaviour, can only partially be explained by its fat and carbohydrate content,’ said Hoch. ‘There must be something else in the chips that make them so desirable.’ High levels of fat and carbohydrate had been thought to send pleasing messages to the brain, leading people to gorge on calorie-packed snacks. The magnetic resonance imaging scans showed reward and addiction centres in the rats’ brains were most active when they ate crisps. Pinpointing the molecular triggers in snacks and sweets that stimulate the brain’s reward centres could lead to the development of new drugs or food additives that combat over-eating.

Holydaze To market, to market we go If you’re looking for some colourful, wholesome fun for the whole family these school holidays, be sure to visit the Mullum Farmers Market this Friday morning between 7am and 11am. Every Friday is fun, but this week is going to be extra special as they celebrate their third birthday.

Workshops run throughout the school holidays, from 10am to 3pm Monday to Wednesday. There are limited places left – book online now! Head to spaghetticircus.org.au for more information and to book before you miss out.

Don your most colourful outﬁts or an old-fashioned bit of fancy dress. There will be a prize for the best dressed. There can’t be a more fun way to do your weekly shopping, and the secret is already out on the best brekkie and coffee in town. Mullum Markets are delighted to welcome the talented Shearwater children for a morning of musical performances, led by music teacher Ross Noble. There will also be candle making, real fairies who love nothing more than to do a bit of facepainting, and of course a birthday cake. Oh and if you happenn to come across a tall alien you could be in for or a few free birthday treats! Mullum Farmers Markets are held in the Mullum Showgrounds on Main Arm Road.

Circus Fever Byron Shire is faced with a circus fever epidemic following the recent performance of The Last Stand by our beloved youth performance troupe, Spaghetti Circus. Locals who attended the show were amazed at the talent on stage, with one local lady describing the act as ‘theatre on adrenalin!’ The show, which saw the young circus troupe perform gravity-defying acrobatics, impressed the crowds – with every performance completely sold out. Audiences said they were delighted to see ‘our local youth having so much fun together’ and realised ‘the circus is a great alternative to mainstream sports for kids – it has the teamwork and skills like any other sport… but without the competition.’ Spaghetti Circus is now calling all budding acrobats and trapeze wizard wannabes aged 7–14 to roll up! and join one of their Holiday Workshops. A taste of the circus life is the most exciting thing to do these school holidays, with participants learning tricks such as trapeze, mini tramp, acrobatics, tumbling, hula hoops, juggling, lyra, tissue, German wheel and much, much more.

GreenScene Going green in the backyard Many households have a range of lawn and garden equipment, power tools and machinery, a barbeque or other facilities for outdoor cooking, not to mention ponds, pools and spas. Without some planning, outdoor equipment could add signiďŹ cantly to your home energy use and costs, including added maintenance time, and increased water use and waste created by your household. For a typical home, maintaining an in-ground pool alone could add up to 30 per cent to your household energy use.

Things to consider:

Barbeques, for instance, can contribute to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re cooking or entertaining in the backyard regularly, it makes good energy sense to buy a BBQ that will stand the test of time and be easy to use, maintain and operate efďŹ ciently.

s )T S IMPORTANT TO BUY THE RIGHT TYPE AND SIZE FOR YOUR needs so youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not heating a large cooking space unnecessarily. Consider which accessories such as range hoods, rotisseries and wok burners you will actually use. s 3PECIALISED OUTDOOR COOKING OPTIONS NOW INCLUDE PIZZA ovens, ďŹ re pits, and even solar ovens.Your choice will vary depending on the food types you want to cook, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for everyday eating or youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re planning on entertaining with large groups. s 'O FOR GAS OVER CHARCOAL 'AS ""1S HAVE BEEN SHOWN to emit nearly three times less greenhouse gases than charcoal. There is also a range of new solar products that you can experiment with, including solar ovens and water boilers.

As outdoor entertaining areas become more elaborate the number of gadgets and equipment we require is also increasing. These lifestyle changes combined with rising energy costs make understanding your ongoing energy requirements as well as choosing energy-efďŹ cient outdoor equipment even more important.

â&#x20AC;&#x201C; adapted from livinggreener.gov.au.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not only about having the right product â&#x20AC;&#x201C; how you use and care for your equipment can also make a difference to your overall energy consumption.

Solar Lovinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Still on the hunt for the best solar company to help battle skyrocketing electricity prices? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look any further: InďŹ nity Solarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s local expert will guide you through their quality solutions, one of them being solar hot water. It not only offers great returns but it has never been cheaper to make the switch. InďŹ nity Solar uses evacuated tube solar collectors as they are a popular choice in the market due to low maintenance construction, high efďŹ ciency and lightweight design. Its main advantages are the round tube design, which allows heat to be captured for more hours of the day. The aluminium mounting frame also withstands cyclonic wind conditions and coastal corrosion.

urray usic M M NEIL MURRAY FIRST APPEARED IN THE EARLY EIGHTIES AS A FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE WARUMPI BAND, AND HAS SINCE BECOME ONE OF AUSTRALIA’S MOST RESPECTED AND INFLUENTIAL SINGER/ SONGWRITERS. HE HAS RELEASED ELEVEN SOLO ALBUMS WITH HIS LATEST BEING ‘SING THE SONG’ – THE ESSENTIAL NEIL MURRAY – A DOUBLE ALBUM COMPILATION OF HIS BEST LOVED SONGS.

Neil has also been confirmed as guest speaker at and the latest Australian artist to visit the Lismore campus for the APRA Songwriters’ Workshop program offered at SCU as part of the University’s Contemporary Music degree. He also performs one very special solo gig at the Bangalow Bowling Club on Saturday. As a white man you seem to share or at least understand the Aboriginal sense of Country – was this something you always had or was there a moment where you ‘got’ it? It was always in me. What do you think the white community could learn from their black brothers and sisters? I prefer the term ‘mainstream community’. They might learn to live with more respect and sensitivity in this land and then belong more deeply to it. There are many stories about white Australia, and now more about black Australia – do you think there’s still a genre in exploring our stories together? I prefer inclusion over division and separation. The stories are intertwined and shared. Where are the places in Australia that you have been that have most inspired you? Too many to mention. But I will say this: every place has its own integrity – whether it's a salt lake, gibber plain, forested mountain, dry gully, flooded river, wet land swamp or desert sand dune, farm paddock or suburban sprawl (the buildings are just on top of what's still there). To be fair, my own country (Tjapwurrung country in western Victoria) gave me a spiritual home, but I really learned to ‘see’ when I went to Central Australia and worked in Aboriginal communities. What about the people? I have absorbed much deep knowledge from people who genuinely belong to this land. I’ve also learnt valuable things from people that come from other countries. Do you also feel that you are a voice for country or regional Australians? Not particularly. I’m expressing myself first and foremost.

I’ll concede that some songs can take a representative view as if they are speaking on behalf of a group, or the nation or the planet. People either relate or they don’t. I’ve found those that identify with my work can come from anywhere. As someone myself who grew up in regional Australia and went to a school that was pretty equally half black and half white it amazes me in retrospect how disconnected those two communities could be even when living side by side. Why do you think this is? The deadly design of history – the diametrically opposed culture of the invader to that of the dispossessed, followed by a litany of discriminatory laws and repressive government policy that maintained the divide. What are the stories that most inspire you? Stories of survival, triumphs of the human spirit under adversity, the endurance of hope and the power of love. Can I tell you a story from where I grew up? My friend’s grandmother told her family she’d had a visitor at the early hours of the morning. She had neglected to mention it for days. They were surprised when she relayed the story of finding a young Indigenous man breaking into her house at about three in the morning. She asked if he was hungry. She cooked him a steak. They sat up together drinking tea on the front steps until the sun came up chatting about his life. And possibly hers. That story has stuck with me since I heard it when I was about 13 years old. It was such a racist community and the thought of this five foot nothing old woman having this very human exchange with a young man in the wee hours of the morning has always seemed very poetic – do you come across these sorts of stories very often? l love those kind of stories and they are not uncommon. Despite colonisation, discrimination and the oppression of the times, there were many ordinary human encoun-

ters where compassion, genuine communication and understanding did prevail. What is your songwriting process? I have no set method. Songs come in all sorts of ways. Some are easy. Many are a struggle. When I get an idea – it could be something overheard, or read or seen, or a few chords I stumble on when playing guitar, or a dream I had – it's always something I hear in my head or a feeling I get. As a general guide I try to finish songs quickly otherwise they tend to not amount to anything. Are you still driven to write or create? What about when you are writing poetry or short stories etc, are you always clear what the genre is before you embark on a project? I’m not driven by commercial ambition. But I am driven by a desire to make a meaningful contribution. One is always seeking to capture or evoke some kind of inarticulate truth. But I don’t force or grasp at it. Mostly I feel like I’m waiting. If it comes, it drives me. Having said that – things are more likely to come – or you are more likely to know what to do with it if it does – if you are at least attempting to create something every day. What are the ideas or passions that are driving you at the moment? Trying to write songs of revelatory eloquence. Trying not to repeat myself. Trying to break new ground in my own mind. To paraphrase a quote from the American songwriter Townes Van Zandt: ‘I want to write a song I don’t understand’. What should we expect for your show here? I’ll be performing solo, selected songs from the last three decades. It’ll be some kind journey, picking off landmarks as we go. Some will be known, some not so well. We could end up anywhere. Saturday at the Bangalow Bowling Club. Tickets are Pre $25 (+bf) / Door $30 and are available at the Bangalow Bowling Club.

SAVING YOUR UGLY PHOTOS We are without doubt the most photographed generation ever. In the old days to take a photo you needed a reason like a wedding or a birthday or your dad getting pissed and dressing up in drag for a rendition of I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts with Uncle Neville. Photos documented occasions like family holidays or first communions. Since the 1960s we’ve been able to take photos and put them in little wooden frames or albums and when pieced together they told the story of our lives. Photo albums were what people went back for when their house was burning. They were what husbands and wives bickered over in the divorce; if she got the kids, he generally got the photos. Some women insisted on the kids and the photos. It was a record of their lives after all. Some people split the photos, so that life records now lived in two places. Some cut off husbands’ heads, or neatly folded the segment with the wife back so she no longer filled the frame. Photos were important. We took 36 photos at a time. This would generally be expected to last up to six months. You’d ration photos out. The idea of just clicking off your film was incomprehensible. If you had a wedding on the weekend you’d hold back three, one for you and your partner in your good clothes, one of the bride and

live music

groom and one of the flower toss. Then when you’d taken all your photos you’d leave the camera in your top drawer until you finally remembered to take it down to the chemist and the pharmacist would process it somewhere in between filling prescriptions for valium and advising on laxative use. It took him a couple of days, sometimes a week. And then you’d get your little packet of memories returned. You rarely scored 36 out of 36. There would be a lot of blurry out of focus shots. Some black frames. Some where you should have used the flash. Some where there’s a big white explosion because you shouldn’t have used the flash. Lots of photos with people squinting because in order to get a good shot the subject needed to be looking at the sun. You’d have one photo that was actually in focus and you were so convinced of its merits that you’d immediately order a double. ‘That one’s going in a frame,’ you’d declare. It doesn’t happen like this any more. There’s barely an electronic device that doesn’t have a camera function. I am surprised they haven’t put one on the fridge or the toilet. Or the fricking toaster. It seems that at any time of the day we have access to a device to record a tiny fragment of our boring lives. And it appears that you can’t have too many photos of yourself. Generally taken by yourself. In your bedroom. Hundreds of carefully selected photos where you always look good. Because if you don’t you simply press ‘delete’. In the old days if you looked crap in a photo you had to live with it. You couldn’t just delete. Someone had paid money to develop your ugly head so you had to

put up with it. In the old days photos were a reminder that you didn’t look as good as you thought you did. These days, with the delete button, the classic ‘looking up at camera to make myself look younger and hide my double chin’ favoured selfie pose and easy access to DIY photoshopping, we all are so much more attractive in our own minds then we really are. I worry that we are entering a world where we have no ugly photos. No photos where we have five chins. Or closed eyes. Or dribbling. Just pretentious contrived shots of us carefully constructed for camera. We edit how we want the world to see us. It takes the randomness away, which always seemed to me to be part of the magic of photos. It was the suspense of not knowing what they were going to look like. We take the photo then we look. If we don’t like it we keep taking it until we are happy with the outcome. Every time I take a photo of the kids the first thing they say is ‘can I have a look?’ I say No. You can’t look. But they’re kids. They’re born narcissists. It’s when adults do it that it really shits me. They just want to check what they look like. Instant gratification plus the ability to edit a record of their existence. It’s like a digital form of genetic engineering, where only attractiveness is selected. So what I do is I delete all the attractive photos and save the ugly ones. Then I print the ugly ones and put them in frames. As a reminder that there are some areas where it is best to relinquish control.

OF COURSE IT’S LA LA More than 20 years ago John Course kick started his career by winner the Victorian DMC Mixing Competition and has been on the top of his game ever since. Having sold literally millions of compilations, owning a record label and supporting just about every big act out there, John is one of the most in demand DJs in Australia. He is at La La Land in Byron on Friday.

MAMA MEETS MATILDA Fifteen year old Matilda Dods has scored herself a gig of a young lifetime supporting Mama Kin at her upcoming show at the Mullum Civic Hall. This wide eyed prodigy holds a maturity in her songwriting that belies her age, and has created a genre entirely of her own – planted firmly between sea-shanty indie and sadcore pop. Her passion for telling stories through song is poignant, and at other times facetious. A true observer, Matilda’s songs reflect her view of the world around her. Matilda was selected to perform at Bluesfest in 2011 and 2013 and in 2012 she also won the Mullum Music Festival Youth Mentorship Program in the category of blues and roots, which was mentored by the good Mama Kin. Matilda describes herself as an eight year old and an eighty year old trapped inside the body of a teenager. She can’t sit still, and is constantly whistling or humming a new melody.

s r a t S WITH LILITH Aries variations promise a week of ﬁery mindsets, provocative conversations, outrageous behaviour and passionate change…

E ARIES: This week’s about power: who has it, who hasn’t, how it’s used and the infinite intricacies of leverage. If hard choices are called for, make them so that those involved can still feel the love; poise and assurance will serve you better than ultimatums and demands. F TAURUS: This week answers questions, although you mightn’t like what it says. But if you’re honest with yourself after initially feeling miffed, necessary changes can be made. Venus in your own sensual sign makes these alterations easy and pleasing – think Disney’s Ferdinand the Bull sniffing roses and smiling… G GEMINI: This week’s Jupiterian jambalaya could easily launch you on a spendathon, but retail indulgence really isn’t recommended. While your ruler Mercury in the sign of game’s on wants instant answers and resolutions, personal discussions on sensitive subjects definitely require the patient application of your people skills. H CANCER: If you want to stay private doing peaceful things, that’s an entirely valid response to this week’s abrasive ways. It’s your intuition telling you to relax rather than wrangle with brutally outspoken folk laying bare the bald facts while you’re just wishing they’d bring back the mystique.

Mungo’s Crossword

I LEO: As the struggle between commitments and the desire to fly free continues, allow yourself and others some wiggle space in negotiations. Lower the limbo bar on sky high expectations, keep your leadership style loving and this week will send some fine ego strokes your way. J VIRGO: Speaking up when your ruling planet’s in the sign of fiery outbursts can be chancy, so if you’re not understanding something, ask. Present planetary patterns are sprinkling you with personal growth powder via some wild types recalibrating your attitude and getting you busting a few bold new moves. K LIBRA: Things that formerly seemed important lose their imperative as new needs and realisations emerge. With the year already more than a quarter gone, this week requests your attention to addressing the gap between what what you set out to achieve and your as yet unused potential. L SCORPIO: People on their deathbeds usually wish they’d enjoyed life more, and with retro Pluto and unrelenting Saturn urging even more intense reassessment, you may be feeling the same. Just as well Chiron in your house of play, pleasure, romance and spontaneity’s supplying this week’s fun factor. M SAGITTARIUS: Archers are notorious for sacrificing

culture

facts on the altar of a good story, but this week great exaggerations or even small porkies are likely to be used against you. Maintaining a humorous truth would be infinitely more dench – street slang approval inspired by fabulous Sagittarian Dame Judi. N CAPRICORN: As Pluto roots out retro behaviours from your secret cellar and Venus drums up earthy fun in your pleasure zone, if you keep insisting on having the last word, be assured others will resist. Let them communicate like flame throwers – the cooler you keep, the sweeter your week. O AQUARIUS: While this undeniably exciting week colors emotions and events with vibrant intensity, it’s also abrasive, opinionated, petulant and self-centred – requiring you to slow down, be more thoughtful, less reactive. And more importantly to resist toxic nostalgia, that condition of defending an outdated version of yourself. P P ISCES: This temperamental, high voltage, wildfire week breaks rules, shakes lives and makes changes on Planet Pisces, like it or not. It also rewards good behaviour so tune into its affectionate Venus vibes to restore accord where there’s friction. Show and tell others how much you value them. collaborators director Nicholas Hytner and actress Frances de la Tour, both of whom he worked with on The History Boys and The Habit of Art. Bennett started his performing career while still an academic at Oxford University, when he joined Peter Cook and Dudley Moore in the legendary satirical revue Beyond the Fringe, a production that launched all three to instant stardom. Since then Bennett has won multiple awards for his prolific output, including his television series Talking Heads in the 80s and 90s, stage and screen productions of The Madness of King George (in collaboration with Nicholas Hytner), The History Boys and The Habit of Art.

BOOK REVIEWS The Universe Versus Alex Woods By Gavin Extence Review by Rainbow Phoenix ‘So when, aged seventeen, Alex is stopped at Dover Customs w ith 113 grams of marijuana, an urn full of ashes on the passenger seat, and an entire nation in uproar, he’s fairly sure he’s done the right thing.’ Alex Woods is a wonderfully naive narrator; his observations of the world are touching, simplistic but also highly detailed. He is a curious young man and from the moment we ﬁrst meet him in exactly that predicament just described – he’s in a whole world of trouble. Everything about Alex’s life is unusual for the small country town he inhabits; I mean is your mother a tarot reader and have you ever been hit by a meteor? This is precisely the fate that befalls Alex at the age of eleven when a 2kg chunk of space junk crashes through the roof of his home and knocks him into a coma. This episode and the scar it leaves on his skull set Alex apart

www.echo.net.au

from others; he is bullied at school and plagued by epileptic seizures, but he’s stoic and determined through all of this. He learns how to master his mind through meditation, he studies furiously and devotes himself to Mr Peterson, his only friend in the world. This older, marijuana-smoking, Kurt Vonnegut-reading senior citizen and Alex are unlikely but gorgeous allies. An accident in a gardening shed causes their paths to cross, and sets a chain of events in motion that will ultimately deﬁne them both – the serendipity of this begs the belief that they were always going to meet, that the universe put them together for reasons only revealed at the very end. And so – if in art, then surely we are orchestrated by the same synchronicity in life? This is a sweet, sweet book. It’s not astonishing, but rather a slow, meandering journey that takes its time. Alex’s understanding of things intentionally lacks a certain emotive quality, he is factdriven and analytical; this stops the full poignancy of scenes from developing, but it needs to be this

Diesel

WITH A CAREER SPANNING 25 YEARS

and record sales edging one million Diesel takes his guitar back to the stage for his The Velvet Curtain Tour – an intimate encounter with one of our musical journeymen. Now onto his 13th album – well at least he thinks it’s that many; ‘I lose count,’ he jokes – Diesel admits that being a prolific songwriter can have its downside. ‘There are songs that I absolutely forget about,’ laughs Diesel, ‘but you’ll find it again and start playing it and it becomes a bit of an obsession. It’s like you become the song’s biggest fan again.’ Unlike most artists who build towards their careers, Diesel’s career happened in an instant. ‘It was an explosive start to my career. I wondered if anything was going to happen in my career. By the age of 19 I was jaded thinking this is it – it’s over; but I guess nowadays I still feel that there was that big explosion and a lot of people who come to my shows still come to this day. I know they have a lot of expectation with this one indelible memory, whatever I was good at then – I am still good at it – it’s been a work in progress for me.’ A work in progress that happened very much in the public eye. ‘Every time you get up there, it’s trying for perfection. I know it doesn’t exist – you do have shows where it feels wow, something went beyond what I am capable of doing. You’ll be sailing on that moment. It’s like flying.’ Creative slipstream is something that Diesel believes you can’t predict or premeditate. ‘Many times it’s happened to me where I am incredibly, incredibly tired or I am strung out, and I am past tired, I have gone to somewhere else and it’s the best gig because you have nothing left and you aren’t thinking about anything. It’s a great release. It’s the best medicine. You feel better instantly.’ This time round Diesel has chosen regional theatres to house his solo shows. So why the Velvet Curtain tour?

‘I have been going past these venues forever. I have always wondered beyond the usual theatre productions, why can’t I play there? The usual venues – well a lot have them been refurbished and made more modern, but they don’t always work as gigs anymore.’ One of the great things about the theatre shows is the sound. The silences, and the space to really hear the guitar. ‘I literally can play parts and areas of the guitar and do things that you couldn’t do in a noisy environment. It gives me a lot of blank canvas to make use of. I get to play songs I wouldn’t get to do if there were 90bps of rhubarb going on. It’s also earlier show time and that’s good too! I did a gig at quarter to 12 a while back. That’s late for a solo show – they are tired, they are drunk, they are ready to fall over. Going on earlier, having people listen is really civilised and the thing I have been noticing is all the ages, people bringing their kids – for a solo artist you want all those elements stacked on your side, that and the fact that the theatre is acoustically so nice!’ Diesel plays the Star Court Theatre in Lismore on Friday at 8pm.

way so we can get to know how unique he is. Those around him draw out the feelings and help to stitch together the emotional fabric of his world. Existence asks big questions in subtle ways about life, friendship, illness and dying, the meaning of time and our tiny lives on a tiny planet in the grand scheme of one vast, complex and astounding universe. Alex is an endearingly courageous character who goes above and beyond to look after a friend; he has a penchant for morality and ‘does-good’ with an old-fashioned sensibility rarely seen these days. He’s an old soul with a brave heart and we could all do with a little of his bravery and matter-of-fact wisdom. In the words of young Alex, ‘Fear distorts the world. Fear sees demons where only shadows dwell. This was the lesson I’d eventually learn.’

Buried Treasure In Our Byron Backyard by Courtney Prosser Review by Sva Gibson – Satori Builders I was very impressed with the new book Buried Treasure

<echowebsection=Entertainment>

in Our Byron Backyard. It has become an invaluable guide for me living here in Byron Bay. The book gives such a full comprehensive background of the beautiful geographical treasures that are literally just on the outskirts of Byron. It provides scientiﬁc reasoning for the magic of the region and is a well written guide to exploring the local nature spots and investigating our inner world. As I am originally from Canada, the book provided some very informative insights and understanding of the Bundjalung Pe ople who were the original inhabitants of this beautiful land. Meditation has been an important part of my life for many years, so I tried one of Courtney’s suggested meditations while sitting out at Cape Byron overlooking Julian Rocks. It was such a beautiful exercise in ﬁnding the beauty and stillness of the present moment. I

look forward to exploring the other suggested locations to visit and meditations to undertake. I love Byron Bay, and thank you Courtney for the little gem that you created. It has deepened my respect for this beautiful part of the world.

Saurus Street, Tyrannosaurus In The Veggie Patch by Nick Falk & Tony Flowers Review by Summer Young, age 8 Join Jack, Charlie the dog and Toby on their adventure Saurus Street, Tyrannosaurus in the Veggie Patch. One night Jack sees a shooting star and makes a wish. Find out what he wishes for and what he sends back in time 60 million years ago. Find out what happens when the group does something wrong and gets into a lot of danger! I think this book would be enjoyed by boys ages 7–9 and some girls ages 5–8. So I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I did!

Hyde Park On Hudson The increasingly popular old fogeys’ historical oeuvre has as its goal the sweetening of times past and, rather presumptuously, the sharing of intimacies with the leading figures of the period at which we are invited to be sticky beaks. A common by-product is the reduction of the giants who strode the world’s political stage to the status of moral and intellectual dwarfs. Alas, it is the case with Bill Murray’s President Franklin Delano Roosevelt in this sweet and inconsequential frippery that too often looks like a photo shoot for the pages of a 1930s Vogue. It is a laudable thing to humanise those whom we might otherwise only know from dry archives and annals, but it is another thing altogether to present them out

of the context that made them who they were. Roosevelt is invented as a man distracted by the demands of his dowager mother (Elizabeth Wilson) while primarily concerned with mixing a stiff cocktail and indulging in extra-marital shenanigans. Were it not for the brilliantly coy performances of Samuel West and Olivia Colman as King George VI and Elizabeth (the Queen Mother, as we knew her), the British royal couple is seen as little more than blithering idiots, and only scant regard is shown for that most intriguing character, Eleanor Roosevelt. Such gossipy trivialisation is probably due to the fact that the script has been written from the point of view of the narrator Daisy (Laura Linney), a fifth cousin who had with FDR a lifelong but not very passionate affair – it is this lack of passion that

gives the film its curiously vapid atmosphere. Linney is her usual sad-sack self and Murray, a most self-conscious actor, is unable to create any sense of presidential magnetism, with there being no indication that Roosevelt might have been

consumed by pesky affairs of state – this at a time when America was still not emerged from the Great Depression and, in Europe, Hitler and the Nazis were beginning their terrible rampage. A nice movie, but hollow. ~ John Campbell

24 April 16, 2013 The Byron Shire Echo

Not for the faint hearted, War Witch (French: Rebelle) is a 2012 Canadian drama written and directed by Kim Nguyen. It was primarily filmed in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. The film was in competition for the Golden Bear at the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival in February 2012. At Berlin, Rachel Mwanza won the Silver Bear for Best Actress. She also won the award for Best Actress at the 2012 Tribeca Film Festival. It was also nominated for a Best Foreign Film Oscar. Synopsis: Komona, a 14 year old girl, tells her unborn child the story of how she became a rebel. It all began when she

was 12; kidnapped by the rebel army, she was forced to carry an AK47 and kill. Her only escape and friend is Magician, a 15 year old boy who wants to marry her. Despite the horrors and daily grind of war, Komona and Magician fall in love. They thought they had escaped the war, but fate decided otherwise. In order to survive, Komona will need to return to where she came from and make amends with her past. Reviews: scores a massive 95 per cent on the Tomatometer. Five stars from Margaret, three and a half from David. From Margaret: ‘Shot hand held, it’s raw, violent and deeply distressing – but yet this Oscar nominated Canadian produced those of a strong disposition. The naturalistic performances movie by writer/director Kim Nguyen is well worth seeing for are so good that it’s hard to

believe acting is involved – perhaps it wasn’t.’ ~ from Echonetdaily.net.au

Television Guide 1. Donnie Yen stars as a secret service agent in the Ming Dynasty emperorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s court in 14 Blades (SBS2, Saturday, 9.35pm), a recent kung fu thriller. The secret serviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eunuch chief is plotting to overthrow the emperor and naturally itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up to Donnie, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gone for the Jack Sparrow look, to stop him. Donnie and Jet Li had a classic fight scene in Hero, so he has form. 2. Rachel McAdams and Cillian Murphy star in Red Eye (ONE HD, Sunday, 8.30pm), a thriller directed by longtime horror impresario Wes Craven. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those claustrophobic plane jobs, in which McAdams gets blackmailed by Murphy to participate in an assassination plot against the US Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security. We assume they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t screen this on flights.

With the little Lennox Head club it was precisely the simple, old fashioned fact of a group of people physically coming together, bothering to turn up and shyly introduce themselves and gradually assume mutual familiarity, bringing along a new salad for everyone to try, perhaps, with paper plates and plastic forks â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the effort and the sweet earnestness of it all in an age when increasingly we seem to be interacting via phones and laptops. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably too what I love so much about cooking, this ancient craft still largely resistant to modern technology, still providing us with reasons to come together, still giving us comfort â&#x20AC;&#x201C; still, for all our immense and individual differences, offering us something we can share.

Muoiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feast has created a strong following since opening in 2003. Winning numerous awards for its international cuisine, the Asian section of the menu is the predominant favourite. Enjoy for dinner.

Years ago â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and I devoted a food column to it at the time â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I succumbed to the involvement in cyberspaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s equivalent of a chain letter about recipe exchanging. You had to shoot off a recipe to the name at the bottom of a list plus ten of your friends, if memory serves me correctly; in return you would be rewarded with ten recipes. None of the ones I received I ever bothered making, although I did print off one I thought one day I might try. I declined a recent invitation to join another one of these.

TWEED HEADS

Muoiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feast

There is a recipe exchange club at Lennox Head that almost makes me wish to relocate. I met ten of its members recently and learned that what had started out as a monthly event at the shiny new library had increased to a weekly one. Sometimes a food themed book will be involved; sometimes a guest speaker â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but essentially it is a group of women who gather to talk about dishes they have tried out or a dish they wish to share. Sometimes food will be brought along, a plate to be passed around. I am charmed by so many elements of this idea â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but mostly by the fresh reminder of the power food has to unite people. The food is almost an excuse anyway, common ground upon which to meet and from whence to depart. And so our conversations around the tea urn travelled from aged parents to the burden of children, from late in life flings to childlessness, from European men to the challenges of being alone. Another beauty of recipe exchanging is that, as distinct from trying out something enticing from the swoonable, air-brushed pages of a Gourmet Traveller, you are generally assured of a dish that will work. I try out new recipes all the time â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from my substantial library of cookbooks; from food magazines and newspaper supplements; from the internet â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and regularly come up against disappointment or outright failure. So when a friend passes on her latest exciting way with a whole salmon I know I can proceed with complete confidence.

CHECK IT CLEAN IT RECYCLE IT <echowebsection=Classifieds>

CSG exclusion zones leave water, wildlife and public health at risk: NCC The Nature Conservation Council of New South Wales has lodged a submission calling on the NSW government to expand its proposed exclusion zone on new CSG activities to include critical water resources, farmland, rural communities and areas of high conservation value.Â â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;For residents concerned about CSG development in urban areas, the proposed changes to the state environmental planning policy represent a victory for common sense and local community action,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Nature Conservation Council CEO Pepe Clarke said. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;But for many others, this amendment will not deliver peace of mind. For a government that promised real change on mining and gas regulation, much unfinished business remains.Â â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Drinking water catchments are still not protected from CSG and mining, neither are important natural assets like the Pilliga Forest, which is set to be carved up and polluted

by CSG development, and the Gardens of Stone, which is threatened by an open-cut coal mine proposal. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Local communities in the Hunter Valley, including our world-class thoroughbred industry, will still be threatened by air pollution from the rapid expansion of the coal mining industry. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Of particular concern is the clause that allows local councils to â&#x20AC;&#x153;opt outâ&#x20AC;? of the new safeguards. This loophole is big enough to drive a drill rig through; if the NSW government is serious about giving local councils a say on CSG projects this power must be matched with an equal power for councils to say no to new CSG developments. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The government must seize the opportunity to respond to well-founded community concerns about unrestrained mining and gas expansion and amend the policy to include damaging coal projects and deliver real protection for public health, water resources and natural areas.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;

NSW mining benefits overstated: report Sydney [AAP]

Resource companies are exaggerating the projected economic and employment benefits of coal mining and gas projects in NSW, a report has found. Mining companies are also downplaying the health and environmental risks of these projects, a report by Economists at Large and the Australia Institute said. The report analysed seven development proposals across the state, and found models used to assess impacts on employment include unrealistic assumptions such as there being no limits on the supply of skilled labour. Damage to native vegetation and the rise of greenhouse gas emissions are also underesti-

mated in most of the proposals. The report, released by the Nature Conservation Council of NSW (NCC), said the projects need to be thoroughly assessed because they fail to highlight several issues such as health costs, and also contain inconsistent figures or analysis. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Given the serious risks to human health, water and the natural environment, the use of false or misleading economic data to support development applications is simply immoral,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; NCC campaigns director Kate Smolski said. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This report clearly shows why the government must overhaul the planning system to ensure that economic claims made by developers are thoroughly assessed by an independent body.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Nanospongesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to fight MRSA London [PAA]

Microscopic sponges that circulate through the bloodstream mopping up toxins can overcome the superbug MRSA, studies have shown. The ball-shaped â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nanospongeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, which is 3,000 times smaller than a red blood cell, soaks up dangerous chemicals and transports them to the liver where they are broken down. In tests on mice, US scientists successfully neutralised the alpha-haemolysin toxin produced by Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA). Pre-injection with the nanosponges allowed 89 per cent of mice to survive normally lethal infections. Treat-

ment after infection saved 44 per cent of the animals. The sponges can also combat toxin from the food bug Escherichia coli (E.coli) and venom from poisonous snakes and bees. Study leader Professor Liangfang Zhang, from the University of California at San Diego, said: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This is a new way to remove toxins from the bloodstream. Instead of creating specific treatments for individual toxins, we are developing a platform that can neutralise toxins caused by a wide range of pathogens, including MRSA and other antibiotic resistant bacteria.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The findings were reported in the journal Nature Nanotechnology.

Olley art centre a step closer Luis Feliu

The symbolic turning of the first sod to mark the start of construction of the $4 million Margaret Olley Art Centre at the Tweed River Art Gallery was held last week. The centre, expected to be ready by February next year, fulfils the late artist’s wish to house her collection of works in the gallery, which is already proving to be one of the biggest attractions in the Tweed. An exhibition of her works, which ended last Sunday, attracted almost 20,000 visitors. Margaret Olley’s Paddington studio and elements of her home will be re-created in the purpose built extension to the art gallery, which will also include extra exhibition space, storage rooms and library space. The project is a true cooperative effort with the community, through Tweed Shire Council, the gallery through its friends and foundation, the Margaret Olley Art Trust, and all tiers of government helping to fund it. Representatives from all groups involved in the project attended the sod turning. The project funding so far includes a $1 million contribution from the Margaret Olley Art Trust matched by a $1 million federal government grant, as well as $200,000 from the NSW government, $620,000 from the Tweed River Art Gal-

expected it to put the Tweed on the ‘international stage’. Lismore MP Thomas George also congratulated everyone involved for ‘a real community win’. Mr George said that when he travelled around the state and he mentioned his electorate took in Murwillumbah, many people and other MPs asked how the Olley extension to the gallery was going. He said the gallery drew more than 79,000 visitors last year and he didn’t know ‘anything else in the northern rivers that attracts numbers like that year in year out’. Successful contractor Alder Constructions will soon start work on the construction of: the Margaret Olley home studio, an artist in residence studio, additional exhibition space, an education workshop, additional collection storage, a library space, refurbishment of the gallery entrance and retail area including a new airlock entry, alterations to the existing driveway entrance and bus parking bay, minor pavement repairs to front asphalt entrance, a cafe extension, an upgrade of the gallery’s existing mechanical ventilation system to meet industry standards, internal renovations to the retail outlet, offices and an airlock to maximise sustainable climatic controls at the gallery’s entrance. For more information, visit www.tweed.nsw.gov.au/ArtGallery/MargaretOlleyArtCentre.aspx.

lery Foundation, $80,000 from the Friends of the Tweed River Art Gallery and $1.1 million in council contributions. Tweed mayor Barry Longland said yesterday was a major step forward in the project, which showed the shire’s ‘commitment to present a lasting and loving tribute’ to the late artist, and thanked all those involved. Cr Longland said he was confident the gallery with the Olley art centre would become not just the best regional gallery in NSW but throughout Australia. ‘The level of national interest in each stage of this process reflects Margaret Olley’s status as an icon of Australian art and shows how important the centre will be at a national level,’ he said. Gallery director Susi Muddi-

man said the sod turning was a major milestone in the project and she was looking forward to seeing work start. Trustee of the Margaret Olley Trust, Phillip Bacon, said the late artist ‘loved the Tweed gallery’ and was very happy to have her works housed there. The artist spent part of her early childhood in the Tweed. Mr Bacon said trust funding would also enable a full time staff member to be employed for the centre itself. Richmond MP Justine Elliot said the Olley art centre represented ‘what we can achieve when all work together’ and was ‘a real community victory’ with all levels of government and community involved. Mrs Elliot said the local community was ‘incredibly proud’ of their gallery and she

nose in front 10–8 at the break. The Shiners’ pack dominated from the restart with Jackson Lewin superb at scrum half. Good rucking, pick and drives and some Ballina indiscretions helped set up a platform to attack. Then the irrepressible Satuala Siamoa tucked the ball to his ample chest, lowered his centre of gravity and drove to the line like a wrecking ball. Dylan Fitzgerald converted the try for a five point lead. The Shiners pressed hard with line breaks from Scott Hazlewood-Potts in the form of his career and the artful dodger Simon Hutton. When Ballina had the ball Mullum’s tacklers stepped up; big hits from Pyne,

Andrews and Vogt had the Ballina faithful losing hope. But with only five points in it and seconds to go a loose Shiners pass gifted Ballina the opportunity to steal victory from the jaws of defeat. There was a kick, a ball rolling to a stop in goal, a race between a short stocky Mullum veteran and a Ballina greyhound. It looked grim until fullback Dion Vogt dashed from nowhere to save the day. The ref blew his pipe, the fat lady sang and the Moonshine song echoed through the drizzle. The Shiners are in the uncharted territory of 2–0 and have a bye next week before hitting the road to Iluka.

Q-Clash goes Brisbane Lions way Matthew Lodge

Daily surf reports with Rusty Miller!

Looking to back up an opening round win the Moonshiners travelled to Ballina on Saturday. A great turnout of green and gold supporters had plenty to cheer early. Five minutes in Dillon ‘The Charging Bear’ Pyne swooped to intercept a loose Ballina pass. A quick recycle and kick had the opposition fullback under the pump. He failed to kill the ball in goal with Brad Walsh cashing in to score his first Moonshine try.Discipline around the breakdown, cohesion in the backs and some good kicking for field position had the Shiners pouring the pressure on. Dylan Fitzgerald was using his ample talent, dumping defenders with his palm and dancing through the gaps. The Shiners’ lead stretched to eight points when Sati Siamoa slotted a penalty. Ballina was relying on their leg speed and kicking to keep them in the game. The willingness of both sides to chance their arm made for a free flowing counter attacking game. It took a Mullum in goal error for Ballina to register their first try. They backed it up with a line break down the clubhouse wing to

The Gold Coast Suns will be ruing the one that got away after falling to Queensland state rivals, the Brisbane Lions, by two points on Saturday night at Metricon Stadium. The Lions have now won four successive Q-Clash encounters after the Suns won the first of the rivalry grudge matches in their opening year in 2011. Ahead by five goals from skipper, Jonathon Brown, the Lions led for nearly the whole match as the Suns battled valiantly, but struggled to find the goal to give them a scoreboard

advantage. Despite sustaining a minor ankle injury, Charlie Dixon continued his good form leading all comers in hit outs against the much more fancied Matthew Luenberger. Also continuing on from his impressive showing last weekend against the premiers Sydney Swans, young gun Jaeger O’Meara performed admirably alongside his skipper Gary Ablett (27 disposals) and the Suns’ best player in Harley Bennell (27 disposals and three goals). The Lions saw Ablett’s 27 touches as a win, paying tribute to tagger Andrew Raines, who grabbed 21 possessions himself, forcing Ablett to defend him.

Another positive was the performance of former Brisbane player, Jarred Brennan, who notched up 30 possessions, 11 of them resulting in centre clearances in arguably his best game for the Suns since relocating from 70km up the Pacific Highway. Suns coach Guy McKenna remained upbeat about his side’s performance despite the close result. He highlighted the Suns’ ability to peg back leads of 24 points in the third quarter and 15 points late in the fourth quarter, despite having less possession than the Lions. ‘They probably had more of the footy so probably the result we had (was fair),’ he said in the post-match press conference.

‘We had our opportunities of course, but we probably gave them too many opportunities and they took theirs.’ Daniel Rich, who’d had quiet outings in the Lion’s opening two rounds, led the way with 27 touches for the Lions as well as 12 score involvements that proved crucial to the Lions result. Both sides now sit at one win and two losses after the third round of the 2013 season, with the Suns hosting Port Adelaide at Metricon Stadium next Saturday afternoon in another good challenge for the young Gold Coast side. The final score was Brisbane Lions 13.16. (94) defeating Gold Coast Suns 13. 14. (92).

A building dispute can cost more than the renovation

Renovators who end up in a legal dispute with their builder could find that their lawyers cost them more than the renovation and if they lose they then have the added cost of rectifying the building problems. Edward Lukac from Archicentre, the building design, inspection and advice service of the Australian Institute of Architects, said, ‘New home buyers and renovators continue to make regular appearances on current affairs television shows across Australia, often standing in ruins of half finished or badly constructed buildings.’ Mr Lukac said the reality is that it is no good trying to assess the quality of building work when the house has ‘got its clothes on’ and shoddy framework, plumbing, drainage or wiring is concealed by plaster board, flooring or roofing. Archicentre is often contacted by people who are in dispute with a builder about their renovation or new home over three main issues. the scope of the work, the completion of the work or the quality of the work. ‘More than often the building dispute could have been avoided if the owner had sought professional assistance from an architect at the beginning of the project to plan the work, estimate the construction cost, provide detailed drawings and, where required, administer the building contract,’ Mr Lukac said. ‘The majority of these disputes relate to a lack of preparation and a communication breakdown between parties over what was included within the price, what wasn’t included and how much more the “extra” work is going to cost. ‘The arguments usually result from a lack of clarity at the very beginning of the project when quotes were being ob-

tained, where owners have not presented accurate plans, nominated required finishes or specified the quality of fittings leaving the builder to guess.’ Mr Lukac said that if you want a firm, reliable price for your renovation project you need to put some time and effort into specifying everything you want, right down to the type of door handles, the number of power points and the size of the kitchen sink as fittings can be extremely expensive items. ‘The completion of works within a set date depends on a number of factors relying again on a good, clear understanding between client and builder of the project start and finish dates, regular attendance onsite by the builder and prompt payment of invoices by the client. ‘A written contract confirming these particulars is a must and the role of the architect is to ensure their client’s interests are protected.’ Mr Lukac said that differences of opinion over workmanship quality are the source of many an argument, but there are published guidelines that take the guesswork out of whether something is acceptable or not. ‘Regular inspections are necessary to ensure that poor work is picked up and rectified early and while it is up to the builder to check the work of their tradespeople, if you want independent ‘third party’ inspections an architect can assist with these as well.’ Archicentre has a cost guide on its website at http.//www.archicentre.com.au/cost-guide that provides a general indication of costing for renovations and home improvements.

NBN must not affect affordable housing The Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) NSW has welcomed the coalition’s announcement that people in new estates will continue to get fibre optic cabling to their homes. UDIA NSW chief executive Stephen Albin said UDIA had been at the forefront of discussions with the government and NBNCo regarding the provision of fibre to greenfields and new housing estates, and the coalition’s announcement continues to address the concerns of new homebuyers. ‘There has to be equitable treatment for new and existing home owners in relation to the funding of the NBN deployment and quality of

service,’ he said. ‘Housing affordability is a critical issue in NSW – whichever party that’s in after September must ensure that new house prices are not negatively impacted on by the rollout of the NBN.’ Mr Albin said UDIA NSW looked forward to continuing to work with all public and private stakeholders to see the successful rollout of NBN. The Urban Development Institute of Australia NSW advocates for better planning, timely and affordable housing, and the building of vibrant communities to increase local job opportunities.

Backlash The so-called ‘new settlers’ are being celebrated in various ways at the moment (see our picture) but one source of material that is often overlooked is The Rainbow Archives project. Initiated in 1985 by Pip Wilson, former editor of Simply Living magazine, the archives are housed at the State Library of NSW and include material from a wide range of sources. You can get some idea by going here: http:// bit.ly/111fC65. And also check out SCU’s Aquarius And Beyond project at http://sassevents.scu.edu.au/aquarius/. Q Q Q Q

Tony Abbott’s minders are careful not to let him speak much, but at last week’s Institute of Public Affairs dinner for the lizard illuminati, he gave us a taste. Apart from all the religious overtones, he lavished praise on Murdoch, which means his 70 per cent domination of the nation’s newspapers will most likely increase. There’s nothing like comforting the comfortable and keeping everyone else afflicted. You can see Abbott’s speech on the Australian Conservative’s website at http://bit.ly/ZkmSre. Q Q Q Q

And what is The Institute of Public Affairs? It’s an ultra right wing think tank; its recent bright ideas include: abolish the Australian Human Rights Commission, repeal the renewable energy target and carbon tax, end all public funding to unions and employer associations, repeal laws which protect unions from competition, repeal legislative restrictions on the use of nuclear power, halve the number of days parliament sits, abolish Tourism Australia and cease subsidising the tourism industry, abandon plans to restrict foreign investment in Australia’s agricultural industry, and abolish the four pillars policy which prevents Australia’s major banks from merging. For more on how to turn Australia into a fascist

Them old hippie pads strung together on a plank and a prayer are being celebrated in an exhibition at the Lismore Regional Gallery www.lismoregallery.org. Not Quite Square – The Story of Northern Rivers Architecture includes a specially commissioned film by The Echo’s cinedrudge Sharon Shostak – it documents four exquisite buildings started in the 70s and 80s and still lived in today, with a music score by Norm Appel. Opens Saturday April 20 and runs until June 2. This photo of the River House, Whipbird Gully, is by Tim Hixson.

The dreadful Maggie Thatcher has finally done the decent thing and died. She who promulgated the laissez-faire ‘profit from others’ misery’ economics of Milton Friedman, admired Pinochet, and thought it proper to send warships to kill 900 soldiers pointlessly near a tiny island in the Atlantic. Nixon, Reagan, Friedman, Thatcher, privy attendants of the usurious rich. According to Sun Tzu’s Art Of War, ‘If you wait by the river long enough, the bodies of your enemies will float by.’ Surely Henry Kissinger’s foul corpse must be coming along soon. More annoying perhaps are the platitudes coming from senior politicians who don’t have the courage to criticise one of their number in case they too cop a hiding post-mortem. British MP and former film star Glenda Jackson is an exception, as the BBC recorded: http://bit.ly/12KLgFa.
