Constitutional divide Brouhaha erupts over proposed local govt changes Hans Lovejoy

Is local MP Don Page the minister for, or against, local government? That’s the question posed by the peak body representing NSW councils after Mr Page refused to support the inclusion of local government or councils in the Australian Constitution. It comes in response to the upcoming referendum on the topic, to be included with the September election. Currently councils are an operational arm of state governments and only two tiers of government are recognised in our constitution. Councils currently receive the majority of their funding from municipal rates and council fees, but also receive grants and subsidies from state and territory governments. There is also direct federal funding via initiatives such as the Roads to Recovery program, the Regional Development Fund and Low Carbon Communities, but the legality of some of these grants has been challenged in the High Court. The court cases have prompted the referendum in a deal brokered by the Greens/independents and Labor at the last election. Mr Page told ABC radio last week, ‘You could easily envisage a situation where a couple of marginal seats in a federal election would be benefited by large cash injections from the Commonwealth on the eve of the election to fund a particular piece of infrastructure. So you would have a large amount of money going to a project that was for political reasons but wasn’t actually part of the state plan.’ Those comments prompted an outraged response from Local Government NSW’s joint presidents Cr Ray Donald and Cr Keith Rhoades AFSM, who accused Mr Page of ‘scaremongering and ill-informed information’ that is ‘misleading the people of NSW.’ ‘Given the recent TCorp report into

NSW council finances,’ Cr Donald said, ‘it’s astounding the NSW coalition government won’t support a practical change to the Constitution securing tens of millions of dollars each year for NSW communities and their infrastructure.’ Cr Rhoades added, ‘It seems a tad contradictory for the NSW coalition government to trumpet criticism of councils’ financial sustainability, then fail to support a referendum which would protect federal grants for the most basic community needs, like local roads.’

O’Farrell’s reasoning But in a letter from NSW premier Barry O’Farrell to then federal minister for local government, Simon Crean, Mr O’Farrell outlines his reasoning for objecting to recognition. ‘The NSW government is of the view that amendments to the Constitution should not be made in the absence of clear evidence that existing funding arrangements are deficient. ‘While the government acknowledged that the High Court’s decision in Pape and Williams may have cast some doubt on the appropriateness of the direct funding of local government by the Commonwealth, it is noted that neither the Expert Panel’s report nor the Joint Select Committee interim report have identified any new significant issues with the financial arrangements that currently exist between all three tiers of government.’ Mr O’Farrell also says the amendment, as proposed in the committee’s interim report, will allow the federal government to grant funds directly to local government, ‘which could result in NSW 2021 and other major state policies being sidetracked or not given due regard… ‘This could also raise expectations that the Commonwealth could intervene in local government administration, thereby creating confusion

Baseline $30,000 CSG study to begin Dominic Feain

The first independent baseline study to assess groundwater and aquifers prior to coal seam gas (CSG) development is set to commence on the northern rivers and scientists are seeking access to private properties for sampling. The research will provide reference points at specific sites from which to determine the effects of any future coal seam gas development. The absence of such data has been the bugbear of environmentalists and CSG opponents frustrated with the argument from the coal seam gas industry that there was no science to prove this form of unconventional gas extraction unsafe. continued on page 2 Jointly funded by NOROC (North-

ern Rivers Regional Organisation of Councils) and Southern Cross University (SCU), the $30,000 preliminary study will enable the collection of baseline groundwater chemistry data and the design of a long-term monitoring program for the region

ahead of any potential development of the coal seam gas industry. SCU associate professor Isaac Santos heads the team at the university’s Centre for Coastal Biogeochemistry Research in the School of Environment, Science and Engineering.

Holiday Letting Organisation clarification

The Echo’s May 7, 2013 edition paraphrased John Gudgeon from the Holiday Letting Organisation as saying, ‘The underlying problem [with the holiday letting issue] is that short-term letting is not captured by the Residential Tenancy Act.’ Mr Gudgeon has asked that his quote be published in full: ‘The only regulation difference between letting and long-term accommodation is that long-term letting is subject to the Residential Tenancy Act, which requires a lease if occupied more than three months. If applied to letting, this would mean immediate evictions would be legal under a licence to occupy, framed by the terms and conditions.’

about all tiers of government and responsibilities‌ it blurs the line of accountability.’ Instead, Mr O’Farrell says he supports ‘symbolic recognition as a way of enhancing the status of local governments.’ Meanwhile Mr Page hit back at the LGNSW joint presidents, telling The Echo they have known about the letter for months and, with an election for the LGNSW presidency coming up in October, that ‘might explain Keith Rhoads’s behaviour!’ He added local government is already recognised in the NSW Constitution. Unsurprisingly it’s sparked

divided opinions across state and federal parties; however, Victoria, along with NSW, has rejected it so far. Federal Nationals MP Barnaby Joyce said Thursday that his party will support it, and that a caveat in the amendment to section 96 ensures that authorisation from the state is required for councils to collect money from the federal government. ‘It is the lowest-taxing level of government and rates go straight back into the facilities and services used by that community.’ And Greens MLC and former Byron Shire mayor Jan Barham told The Echo she supports in-

clusion as it ‘plays a crucial role in the democracy of Australia.’ She says direct transfers from a federal level have been very successful, and that ‘Other funding programs that are directed via the state governments result in a loss of direct funding to councils with the state administration costs of approximately 22 per cent without genuine benefit to the community.’

Altered constitution As for the two amendments, or alterations, it’s just 17 words and can be found at http://regional.gov.au. Section 96’s heading is ‘Financial assistance to states’ and it is proposed to be changed to ‘Financial assistance to states and local government bodies.’ Additionally, section 96 itself would be altered to read, ‘During a period of ten years after the establishment of the Commonwealth and thereafter until the Parliament otherwise provides, the Parliament may grant financial assistance to any state, or to any local government body formed by a law of a state, on such terms and conditions as the Parliament thinks fit.’ Q Editorial page 10

Cultural connections with custodians Story and photo Eve Jeffery

Last week the Bundjalung people of Byron Bay (Arakwal) hosted the Joint Management Custodians of NSW meeting. Custodians are landowners leasing their land back or recognised through an Indigenous Land Use Agreement (ILUA) or a Memorandum of Understanding. The joint management custodians have been meeting every year since 2009 and the meetings run for two-and-ahalf days. The event started with a field day that included a visit to the Cape and the official opening of a walkway access path at The Pass. ‘Every time we have these conference meetings we always have one day in the field,’ said Yvonne Stewart, chair of the Arakwal National Park Management Committee. ‘We are just having a look at country and listening to the custodians of the area. ‘We went and introduced the delegates to Broken Head. ‘We talked about the dreaming areas and the cultural significance out there and the car-

avan park and how we jointly manage aligning lands. ‘There are 25 different groups who have co-management with National Parks across the state,’ Ms Stewart said. ‘It’s pretty significant.’ Ms Stewart says that for the Arakwal the ILUA has helped put Aboriginal people in jobs in the administration and care of the national park.

‘Successful traineeships have seen Arakwal people appointed to a range of positions including ranger, senior field officer and administration officer.’ She said Aboriginal joint management also enables Aboriginal communities to connect with their country and pass on their culture to younger generations, contributing to community wellbeing.

Byron black spot to be fixed

That deadly right-hand turn from the hardware store will soon be a thing of the past for Byron Bay residents following the allocation of federal funding to fix it. Richmond MP Justine Elliot announced last week that $210,000 would be provided under the Black Spot Program for the upgrade of the intersection of Jonson Street and Browning Street. The project was recommended by a panel of independent road safety experts and will include the instalMay’s Month of Marbles is upon us.

Rescue hits the waves in new boat Story and photo Eve Jeffery

With the ringing of a bell and the splashing of some bubbly, the northern rivers’ latest lifesaver was commissioned yesterday at Brunswick Heads. Close to 200 guests from local and statewide emergency, rescue and police services came to see the start of the vessel’s working life. At a cost of $340,000, Brunswick 30 was officially commissioned at a ceremony at the Brunswick Heads Boat Harbour, boosting the emergency capability of Marine Rescue NSW volunteers on the state’s north coast. Marine Rescue NSW commissioner Stacey Tannos said the boat, a 9.5 metre Naiad, was able to travel up to 15 nautical miles offshore, making it a valuable addition to marine search and rescue resources. ‘Brunswick 30 forms an important part of Marine Rescue’s strategic safety net of offshore rescue vessels covering the NSW coastline and inland on the alpine lakes and the Murray River at Moama,’ Commissioner Tannos said. ‘This rapid-response vessel is one of more than 30 new and refurbished vessels delivered to date at a cost of $9 million as part of our ongoing project to upgrade our rescue fleet through the financial support of the NSW government and

After Rob Goodacre christened the Brunswick 30, he was presented with a plaque by current boat captain Lazlo Szabo, which will be installed in the cabin of the new boat in honour of Rob’s years of service to marine rescue.

the boating community.’ In 2012, Brunswick unit members assisted 33 people aboard 17 vessels. So far this year, the unit has gone to the aid of another 13 people on nine vessels. Brunswick unit commander Owen Danvers said Brunswick 30 provided the unit’s volunteers with a lightweight, speedy and highly manoeuvrable vessel. ‘This is a great asset for the unit and for boaters,’ he said. ‘It is a faster response vessel

with much more sophisticated radar, navigation and radio equipment, making us more effective than before. It gives us far better coverage than our previous, 12-year-old vessel, which could only travel seven nautical miles out to sea.’ After the ‘official’ portion of the ceremony was over, in a ritual dating back to the ancient Greeks, Rob Goodacre, who clocked up 22 years as the previous boat’s captain, poured wine over the vessel’s

bow and declared it christened the Brunswick 30. In recognition of his tireless service and contribution to Marine Rescue Brunswick Heads, a plaque bearing his name will grace the cabin of Brunswick 30 in his honour. Boaters are reminded to always log on and off with their local Marine Rescue radio base whenever they are on the water. To find your local base, visit www.marinerescuensw. com.au.

Big Fish splashes out for youth Story & photo Eve Jeffery

The Big Fish pop-up shop in Jonson Street, Byron Bay, is about to close its doors and owner Jason Adamek is helping the local youth as he leaves. Jason knew when he opened two years ago that he was operating month to month. ‘I’ve been very lucky’, says Jason. ‘I love this location and I love having my loungeroom on Jonson Street. I am a bit sad to be leaving but am grateful for the opportunity to be here in the first place.’ The bell has tolled and the Big Fish will vacate the premises at the end of the month with a handout to the Byron Street Cruise program as a parting gift. Street Cruise is a harm minimisation outreach service that provides youth support, advocacy and advice to young people on the streets of Byron Bay on Friday nights between 8pm and midnight. The target group is those young people most at risk of harm as a result of antisocial behaviour, and particularly local young people. The program has been running since 2001, and has run on Saturday nights and during peak times such as Splendour, Schoolies, NYE and Bluesfest when funding permits.

Deb Pearse from the BYS and 18-month-old Shai and Jason from the Big Fish getting ready for the Street Cruise fundraiser.

‘We now have the outreach bus’, says organiser Deb Pearse from the Byron Youth Service. ‘We are also able supply water and pizza to young people who are in the CBD late at night and thank Earth & Sea Pizza and Eagle Boys for supplying them every weekend free of cost.’ Deb says it has always been a struggle to keep the program running due to a lack of consistent funding and never more so than now. ‘Jason Adamek from the Big Fish has offered to help’, says

Deb. ‘He will be holding a fundraiser on May 25 at the Big Fish which will take the form of an auction and sausage sizzle. The auction will start at 10am but the shop will be open from 8.30am for people to check out what they want to bid on; almost everything will have no reserve. ‘Our young people matter so come and have fun and help keep Street Cruise operational. ‘There are lots of great prizes to be auctioned, including lunch and a “whinge” with mayor Simon Richardson at

Fishheads, a helicopter ride, a three month membership at the new Bodyworkz Fitness Centre, kayaking for two, and a family photo shoot with The Echo’s Tree Faerie.’ Jason says he will be having a holiday after he closes the Big Fish’s doors. ‘I am going to take a month, take a breath and reevaluate. And I don’t know where yet, but the Big Fish will be back.’ If anyone would like to donate a prize for the auction please contact Deb on 0409 170 062 or Jason at the Big Fish.

Local News Motorbike accident claims life A well-known Byron Bay man was killed on Friday morning when he lost control of his motorcycle, which crashed into a guard rail on the Tweed Valley Way, just south of the Crabbes Creek turnoff. Peter Dunshea, who was a longtime resident and osteopath in Byron Shire, died at the scene of the crash around 11am. Mr Dunshea came to Byron Bay more than 25 years ago from Sydney’s northern beaches where he grew up and enjoyed surfing, a passion he continued in and around Byron. A farewell service for the popular local is yet to be announced.

Rail trail group formed A community group has formed to promote the conversion of the Casino to Murwillumbah railway corridor into a rail trail. The Northern Rivers Rail Trail Group believes it would provide a valuable alternative for cycling commuters and walkers while attracting tourists to the region who are more aligned to who we are. With the recent $2m rail report that rejected light rail, the group’s chairperson, Pat Grier, says it presents an opportunity to utilise the corridor and preserve it for possible rail use in the future. ‘The rail trail would connect about 15 towns, villages and hamlets between Casino and Murwillumbah,’ Mr Grier says, ‘providing much needed pedestrian and cycle pathways within the larger communities.’ ‘Every town and village would benefit.

of the most spectacular scenery in the country. Imagine being able to cycle through it, meeting the colourful characters who live here along the way. ‘This trail would be a magnet for those who want to experience regional Australia at its grass roots. The investment required to establish a rail trail is minimal compared to the income it generates for the region it serves.’

VIA Byron support Cameron Arnold, president of Byron shire’s tourism body VIA Byron, added the trail would help to spread the numbers of tourists throughout the region. ‘It would also attract higher yield and longer staying tourists. These are key strategies for VIA Byron.’ To be on the mailing list, email Marie Lawton at mariethebay@gmail. com or phone 0434 552 283.

Farewell Peter McNeilly 1956–2013 Brian Mollet

Mullumbimby lost one of its luminaries last week with the passing of Peter William McNeilly. Chef/café proprietor, family man, sportsman, artist and patron of the arts, Peter’s adventurous, colourful and very well-loved life was celebrated by family and friends after his courageous innings came to a close last Sunday. Born on April 15, 1956 in Murgon, QLD (near Kingaroy), Peter’s early life was defined by his undiagnosed dyslexia and his persona as a loveable ratbag. Kicked out of Rocky Grammar and the Gap in Brisbane before he was 16, mostly for his skill as a prankster and strident nonconformist, he found his feet playing rugby league.

Non-conformist Brisbane Wests thought enough of Pete to give him a game on the wing and organise a job at a local bank. Sadly the bank job was at odds with Peter’s membership of the communist party, antiJoh and pro-Gough stance, as was his reputation as a bit of a hellraiser. Before he was 18, he had ridden his pushbike to Cooktown

and to Adelaide, doing itinerant work along the way. Back in Brisbane he and a few friends put in a legendary night’s work where they dismantled the rear section of the squat they were living in, leaving the facade intact, and trucked it to Tuntable Falls, where they lived happily for a time. On a homemade riverboat journey down the Murray river, a lifetime partnership was forged with Linda Rutledge. The raft sank, but they made it to Adelaide where Peter, always interested in food, began to learn his trade on the job. Soon their skill and sometimes daring took them all over the world cooking, then back home via Oodnadatta to Glen Innes, where Peter enjoyed some notoriety as guitarist for experimental punk band The

Turtles get their day

Vivisectors. Later at the Harold Park Hotel and Café Sergio in Sydney he began working for many philanthropic enterprises, notably ‘Cafe AIDS’, which was at the height of the epidemic (and hysteria). With two young children in tow they, like many of us, decided to move north. Many of Peter and Linda’s local roots were put down in the 12 years they ran the restaurant and function centre at the Byron Beach Resort, now the Becton site. In June 2000 they took to the brave world of small business, taking over Lu-Lu’s café in Mullumbimby. In his 25 years in the area all who got beyond his sometimes parochial but always entertaining exterior found a very kind, tolerant and generous nature.

Free cooking and gardening workshops Mullumbimby and New Brighton farmers markets will be hosting a series of free workshops to enable people to grow their own food and make healthy, sustainable cooking choices. The first workshop is two cooking demonstrations from Organic Passion, to be held Tuesday May 21 at 9am and 10am. Attendees will learn to cook organic raw food using produce sourced from the marwww.echo.net.au

ket stalls. The second and third workshops teach participants how to turn their lawns into instant no-dig food gardens. They will be held on Tuesday May 28 at the New Brighton Farmers Market and Friday May 31 at the Mullumbimby Farmers Market. The workshops are being held as part of the regionwide Think Global, Eat Local campaign being run by Sustain Northern Rivers. For more call 6622 4011.

Faced the ultimate outswinger Peter’s great courage and dignity was evident in the way he faced the ultimate outswinger, his diagnosis of cancer last year. Although very ill Peter did get the chance to spend his last months with family and friends and to the end remained unbowed, uncomplaining and more concerned with the plight of others than his own. Peter is survived by wife Linda, daughter Petra and son Otis. A celebration of Peter’s life is to be held this Sunday at Durrumbul Hall, starting at 2pm and featuring memorabila and music by many of Peter’s muso friends (bring a plate of food).

Many Echo readers have followed his exploits in the Nick Shand Memorial cricket series, which he has been (silently) sponsoring for many years. Being bitten by a roughscaled snake chasing a ball over the boundary at Wanganui earned him the nickname ‘Snakebite’, and later he donated his spleen to cricket in the nets at Lomath Oval, but none of this stopped him coming back for another game, albeit with more padding than a forecast budget surplus.

n spite of the headlines the most important number in last week’s budget was not 19.4 – the billions of dollars in Volume 27 #49 May 21, 2013 last year’s deficit – but 22.2, the ratio of Australia’s tax collections to Gross Domestic Product (GDP).

Medicare level to help pay for DisabilityCare was a belated recognition of the problem, but still nothing substantial has been done to tackle it. True, Swan made some significant spending cuts, but his approach demonstrates that he was not prepared to take the really hard decisions. His half-hearted attack on the worst of his inheritance from the Howard years is symbolic.

Swan gave priority to their own reform policies and did their best to lock them in with longterm funding; but local commentators saw immediately that it was a fiendish plot which Abbott skilfully avoided by agreeing to just about everything. This strategic genius apparently also absolved him of any responsibility to declare or cost his own policies, apart from noting that he would give the

According to the OECD, Australia is the fifth lowest taxing country in the entire developed world. by Mungo MacCallum Yes, the baby bonus is wiped, and not before time. But although he has means tested the private health insurance rebate, the beast remains unslain. And most importantly, Swan has not even mentioned reinstating indexation of fuel excise, abolished by Howard in the electoral panic of 2001. This would not only be a very useful source of revenue, but reinforce the message that the government is serious about weening Australians off fossil fuels. But it, like the whole idea of genuine reform of the tax system, remains off limits. Gillard and Swan are apparently committed to their own Catch 22.2. Tony Abbott, on the other hand, is home free, at least according to the media, which, obsessed by the politics of it all, were breathless with excitement at the way their hero had dodged the snares and booby traps laid for him by his unscrupulous opponents. A more dispassionate observer might have seen nothing particularly sinister in the fact that Gillard and

Australia. Then, depending on what they all said and how he felt at the time, he might have something to put before the people for the 2016 election. But don’t hold your breath. At just about any other time, the speech would have been greeted with well merited derision: if he really had so little to offer, why on Earth would anyone bother to vote for him? But of course, in 2013 the answer was obvious: he was not Julia Gillard, and that was all that mattered. Thus, when he said there was a budget emergency, which there demonstrably wasn’t (even John Howard had admitted that Australia was doing better than most countries, with good unemployment figures and a low debt to GDP ratio) the voters were inclined to nod in sage agreement. And the Greens’ Christine Milne was allowed to get away with the easy line that the budget was not, as the government averred, Stronger, Smarter, Fairer – it was Weaker, Dumber, Meaner. But the most pertinent summary probably came from the independent Nick Xenophon, who thought it was actually a pretty good budget, although it would have been a better one three years earlier. But it didn’t matter: ‘Even if Wayne Swan gave every Australian a sold gold baseball bat most of them would still use it on this government come election day,’ he warned. And indeed the post-budget polling suggested that even if most Australians weren’t already limbering up, at least 54 per cent still were – and that’s the only number the coalition is worried about.

Oh, and of course the schoolkids bonus and the clean energy corporation would go, and so would all the Gonski reforms, although he would hang on to the cuts to universities designed to help pay for them. Apart from that, we could all wait another ten weeks until the Treasury released its PreElection Economic and Fiscal Outlook, which he preferred to the Treasury’s budget figures which he did not trust. Then we might hear something. But in any case it was unlikely to be much, because Abbott’s big promise was that he would do nothing substantial about anything until he had conducted a full audit of all government functions, held yet another enquiry into the tax system (Fred Henry’s was apparently not good enough) and Q See Mungo live at received a Productivity Commission report on Fair Work www.echonetdaily.net.au

Election won’t tackle pressing issues As another federal election looms, I find myself once more in despair mode. Why? Because whichever party comes out on top on September 14, we will still be galaxies away from tackling the most pressing issues of the day. Politics is failing us. Not Left politics or Right politics, but politics, period. And not just in Australia, but across the world. The unpalatable – you could say, inconvenient – truth is that even the very best governments do little more than play at the margins, tweaking bits of legislation here and there but steering well clear of anything resembling structural change – in

particular, structural economic change – for fear of ruffling the feathers of their corporate masters. Ask any group of thinking adults what matters to them in life, and you’ll get a fairly consistent set of answers: secure and meaningful work, a safe and happy future for their children, a peaceful world, a clean environment. And what have we got? Crippling rates of unemployment (not yet in Australia, but let’s not be too smug), escalating levels of both childhood and adult depression, global terrorism that is all but uncontrollable, and a climate on the brink of total collapse.

Of course, some individual battles are won. I for one am happy when a forest is saved, when we stop discriminating against people on the basis of colour or sexual orientation, when carcinogenic agricultural chemicals are outlawed. But where is the bigger-picture debate: the discussion not just of single issues but of root causes? Who is really questioning the absurdly revered yardstick of GDP – supposedly a measure of prosperity, yet one that actually grows with every wrecked oil tanker, with every bomb dropped, with every new diagnosis of cancer? Which party is drawing attention to the broken

communities and ravaged environments that are the result of global trade, and the enormous publicly funded subsidies to big business that make such trade possible? Name the politicians that are even talking about, let alone seeking to change, the way money is created – by private banks, for profit. Yes, we will go to the polling stations in September and cast our votes this way or that. But let us not fool ourselves into believing that we have thereby fulfilled our civic responsibility. Remind me, what was happening while Rome burned?

Assisted death law

and speech increase the chance of human error when interpreting the sufferer’s wishes. Dementia sufferers, estimated to number 250,000 over 65 year olds and one in four over 85 year olds (Access Economics, Aug 09), may be adversely affected. With their decisionmaking capacities delegated to legally appointed guardians and financial managers, an increasing number of elderly could have their choices to live or to die decided for them by state government trustees. One way for a person to assert their right to die humanely might be for them to define their limits beforehand.

Instructions on the person’s wishes could then be given to the authorities before their faculties or sensibilities were lost.

planted fruit trees. That ‘jungle of weeds’ is a very enthusiastic sweet potato ground cover, yielding a crop and improving the soil (I do upkeep on Thursdays to stop it taking over). Then the one-year licence ran out. Council’s department of property and contracts has taken one full year to renew the licence. During that year we were not legally allowed access to the site. So we didn’t proceed with putting in that vital infrastructure, the shed, and generally had to wait. We did weeding, put in some raised beds, made compost. Then last month we got a new three-year licence, and there’s

Legislating for the right to die or ‘assisted death’ is not a simpler issue than rocket science as was asserted in the May 7 Backlash and affirmed in the editorial. Laws intended to be compassionate also bring opportunities for abuse from the darker side of human nature – especially for the vulnerable aged and dying. Reliability of the consent obtained for assisted death is questionable when those unfortunate to succumb to a painful fatal disease are likely to be doped to delirium on morphine and other drugs.

Sara is young and quite the expert on dogs. Mention ridgeback or collie and her face, pretty to start with, becomes radiant. ‘I have shown ridgebacks, you know,’ she announces to the table. ‘But I prefer collies. They’re smarter.’ I’m not into dogs that much, smart or stupid. I don’t dislike them; as a boy I spent many happy days with the family kelpie, just she and I, roaming the mullock heaps of Gympie looking for gold and hiding from Apaches. But that unconditional love, that panting eagerness to please, unsettles me. It’s part of a dog’s nature. If you are condemned by your nature to love without reservation, what value has it? Sara’s boyfriend, William, has puppy eyes of adoration flashing from beneath his modern swept-to-one-side fringe. He hangs on every canny canine word Sara says. He holds her hand under the table. His other hand fidgets with a glass of white wine and pats down his fringe. William has fidgeted his way through a bottle of local semillon and that glow on his stubbled face may not all be due to his undying love. There are four or five wine continued from page 11

Gasfield free Around 60 people gathered last Saturday at the funky little Wilsons Creek hall to get an update on what’s happening in the ongoing battle against the threat of invasive gas mining companies infiltrating our beautiful shire. So far the results of our nearly completed road survey have shown that around 99.8 per cent of residents in this area want it to remain gasfield free. It was incredibly inspiring to hear the fast-becoming-legendary Gordon Fraser Quick give a presentation on the ramifications of the coal seam gas industry. After watching a deeply upsetting film about what is being inflicted on the people of Tara on the Darling Downs (prime agricultural land trashed, sickness and de-

bottles on the table, whites and reds. We’re in a winery in the Hunter Valley. (Vineyards keep the coal mines separate.) By chance I’m at the winery’s birthday function, celebrating with staff and shareholders. Free wine and free food. How lucky am I? ‘There’s two things I really want to do in my life,’ William suddenly says, slicing into the canine conversation. ‘I want to marry this gorgeous woman beside me, and travel the world.’ Sara blushes. And smiles awkwardly into the silence. William rises from his chair (a little unsteadily), adjusts his fringe and walks away. I guess he’s starting his travels. Opposite Sara and the empty chair sit Ian and Catherine. Ian is middle-aged, trim, and wears a silver bangle on his right wrist. I couldn’t see, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the bangle said ‘Ian’ somewhere in its expensive ornamentation. Ian is in finance. Good with numbers, he told me. Ian leans across his wife to speak to me. She recoils, leaning back with a grimace, as if allergic to

his touch. ‘I believe marriage is a percentage game. There is no Mr or Mrs Perfect. It’s a trade-off. A good marriage is about 75 per cent. Isn’t that right, Catherine?’ Catherine makes a small sound through tight lips. Hard lines moor her grimace in place and indicate the tension required to maintain this emotional botox. Her face is expressionless – except for her eyes. They’re alive but furtive, darting about like birds in a shed. Those eyes briefly land on me and reveal the awful truth: she is not in love. Not 75 per cent, not 50 per cent, not at all. Catherine doesn’t want to hear about her 75 per cent mar-

spair), Gordon gave us hope and confidence in the power of the people. We can stop the sneaky infiltration of this toxic industry into our beautiful shire. But we need to be on the alert and never trust what the companies say – because if it can happen in Tara (and elsewhere) it could happen here – there’s no room for unquestioning complacency. We must resist the baldfaced effrontery of our politicians. In the film Call to Action – the Time is Now Brad Hazzard exhorts us to ‘give it a go’. Words (printable) fail me but I think you get my drift. Hopefully Mr Hazzard will start to get our drift as one after the other communities in the northern rivers declare themselves gasfield free.

Logging in parks First, there was a push by the Shooters & Fishers Party to allow shooters into state forests. Now it’s in national parks – to shoot ferals? Second, now their push, with the help of the O’Farrell regime, is to allow Forestry NSW to log in national parks. Is there no end to this party and the coalition trying to destroy all the areas under protection? Surely the amount of logging that goes on in state for-

Catherine exhales a held breath and reaches for the white wine, but the bottle is empty. She stares at the empty bottle, her hand grasping its neck. William wobbles back. He hasn’t started his world travels after all; he’s hunted down another bottle of semillon. (Not that hard. Behind me is a wall, five me-

tres high, of stacked pallets of bottled wine. How lucky am I?) William fills Sara’s glass. He raises the bottle to Catherine as a question. She slides her glass towards him and he fills it. ‘So Catherine,’ Sara asks, leaning across the table to Catherine, ‘how long have you and Ian been married?’

Top heavy? Byron Shire Council has a rate base of only approximately 14,500 properties. This is the revenue base for it to do its work. I have suggested on numerous occasions that Council had become too top heavy with excecutive management and middle management, which puts a strain on these finances. Top-heavy management also hinders staff on the ground being able to operate efficiently because funds required to pay for the depth of this management do not allow for monies to be made available to them. I am aware of only one elected councillor who ever put up that the organisation needed to be restructured to address this problem. That councillor was Tom Tabart. Cr Tabart was accused of picking on staff by other councillors and subsequently they refused to support him. Graeme Faulkner, the previous Council general manager, had the University of Technology Sydney assess the organisation’s structure and submit a recommendation. That assessment recommended that

some departments needed to be restructured. Faulkner refused to implement the recommendations! Why did the then elected councillors allow the recomendations of the university to be ignored? The incoming councillors have now inherited this top-heavy management. I believe the egos/inexperience of some members of this current council are being stroked by management and as a result they have not addressed the structural problems inherited by them. This current council has clearly demonstrated that it is more fragmented than the previous one. Management must be loving it. Will the newly elected councillors have the courage to ask that the current general manager Ken Gainger restructure the organisation to reduce the financial overburden of executive and middle management? This would allow ratepayers’ monies to then go to providing a better standard of service than is currently being provided. Alan Dickens

Israel and children As a school counsellor and child psychologist I am deeply committed to the wellbeing of children. I am not unique in this concern which is why the UN Convention on the Rights continued opposite

Articles/Letters LETTERS from page 12

of the Child (CRC) came into being in 1989. The CRC applies to anyone younger than 18 and comprises 54 statements which include children’s rights to good food, health care and clean water and protection from any activities that could harm their development. Children living in war zones should be specially protected while lawbreaking children should not be jailed or cruelly treated, should not be incarcerated with adults and family contact should be maintained. In 1991 Israel ratified the CRC but was censured in 2010 by UNICEF because it failed to adopt a national children’s rights strategy which would implement various Israeli laws addressing children’s rights. The report criticised Israel for exempting the West Bank from the CRC and for defining a Palestinian child (but not an Israeli one) as under the age of 16. Israeli occupation forces have detained around 9,500 Palestinian minors since the beginning of the second Intifada in September 2000. Additionally, the annual detention rate of Palestinian minors is 760. Currently there are 243 minors under 18, including 42 under 16, in Israeli jails. These statistics exclude hundreds of adult prisoners who were minors at the time of their detention, some of them received long-term and life sentences – see www.middleeastmonitor.

Author shortlisted for ALS medal North coast author Jessie Cole has recently been shortlisted for the ALS Gold Medal, alongside Robert Drewe. This award is presented annually by the Association for the Study of Australian Literature for ‘a work of outstanding literary merit’ published in the previous calendar year. The winner will be announced on July 3. Cole has also been longlisted for the Dobbie prize, along with Mullumbimby’s Romy Ash. Jessie Cole’s debut novel was released in July 2012 by Darkness on the Edge of Town HarperCollins 4th Estate. Re-

viewer Ed Wright said in The Australian: ‘Small towns are something she clearly knows. Her knowledge is nuanced and this tale, with its clever displacement of social and narrative expectations, reveals Cole to be an author well worth watching, in command not just of her subject matter, but also of her sentences... It’s exquisite writing.’ See more about Jessie’s work at http://jessiecolewriter.wordpress.com and find out more about ASAL at http://asaliterature.com.

stable of times, Egypt has had a poor track record when it came to animals. We explained, in detail, how animals spend weeks packed onto crowded ships, often without food or water for long stretches of the journey. When the ships reach their destination, workers forcibly unload the animals, often by beating them with metal bars, kicking them, or dragging them by their ears and legs. Many animals are left in barren feedlots; some die from sickness or dehydration. This is not just how they suffer in Egypt but across the Middle East. PETA’s undercover investigators, with Animals Australia, in the past witnessed abattoir workers in Cairo cutting cattle’s tendons and stabbing animals

in the eyes. As a result, the Australian government temporarily suspended live trade with Egypt in 2006 but quietly resumed the trade as soon as they could. Egypt is not unique in inflicting suffering on animals who have already endured a hellish journey from Australia to the Middle East. Mr Ludwig should have banned live exports years ago, but it’s not too late for him to take a stand.

Further visions for the rail line Q In support of using the now defunct Murwillumbah to Casino railway line as a rail trail: this is an excellent opportunity to inject new life into the sleepy little towns and villages along the way and create new business ventures, also muchneeded employment opportunities. As an example, using New Zealand’s successful Otago model would draw many cyclists, hikers and maybe even horseriding groups to this beautifully scenic track. These low-impact tourists would take pressure off our over-loved Byron Bay. This would also protect the rail corridor should it be feasible to bring back the rail line in the future.

Margot Cairnes

Newrybar Q What to do with the rail line?

There were lots of wonderful ideas in The Echo (May 7). There were pedal and solardriven bikes, vehicles of all descriptions, some holding up to six pedallers, some for private commuters, great for the tourist trade, jobs and business continued from page 13

worth having but it needs to go beyond money available to re-carpet classrooms or update computers. A root cause of ignorance in our culture is the negative reinforcing of learning that takes place when children are stressed by what they are supposed to be learning. Once there is obligation, it is not education taking place, but the inculcation of ignorance, because whatever is a learning stress for children will tend to be steered away from in the latter part of their lives. League tables in education are the stressing of both teachers and children, the ol’ double whammy. Throughout history, reaching back as far as Greek civilisation, there have always been people who have called for child-centred education, where true education takes place by the child setting its own agenda

in the area, coffee shops at revamped stations along the way. When I was a boy there were rail-motors used on most branch lines and they would stop at all the ‘sidings’ along the way. We used to call them ‘beetles’ as they were that shape and held a dozen or more passengers. It was called light rail and that’s what we need. Tony Chandler

Mullumbimby Q It’s great to see fresh new ide-

as about how to use the disused railway corridor popping up through the letters in the papers. It’s hard to argue against having a rail trail between the towns and villages of the north coast which would be a boost to tourists and locals alike. The real test of the community’s imagination, however, will be what to do with the hectares of vacant railway land in the town centres. No doubt, eventually, the state government would prefer to see this valuable community asset sold off to the highest bidder and completely given over to the private sector. of what it wants to learn and teachers facilitating this. But in a technocratic civilisation, that sort of education is not wanted because it would produce geniuses all over the place in far more varied subject fields than we are used to, and, they would refuse to function like sheep.

Short-term fixes

1984, Farenheit 451, Brave New World. These dystopian analogies get used and overused. However, in ‘ourtopia’ are things changing, and maybe for the worse? Recently restrictions on liquor vending and consumption have been enacted within the Byron Shire. They range from a 1.30am lockout, banning of doubles, shooters, jugs and goon ‘bags’, to no cocktails after midnight and so on. These restrictions were the council’s

This is a real possibility unless there is a credible alternative. The council could lease or buy part or all of the rail corridor between Kendall and Browning Streets and use it for parking in conjunction with the town bypass as part of a comprehensive traffic, parking and pedestrianisation solution. Income could then be generated by extending the current paid parking system. Given the history of inaction on this issue it might seem unlikely to ever happen but then who thought Byron Bay would ever get a $17 million sporting and cultural centre! That proposal only became a reality because the sporting associations had a carefully considered plan ready to go when the funding became available. We need to use it or we could lose it! Frank Stewart

Byron Bay Q There’s a fast growth of inter-

est in the obvious benefits to increased low-impact tourism that the world proven rail trail would bring to our towns and answer to public outcry against alcohol-fueled violence in the region. Though I wonder, is alcohol really the demon in a society where violence is ubiquitous: in war, entertainment and media? From the moment you enter a bar you are met by the prospect of violence in the form of a 120kg security guard whose very purpose is intimidation. Merely limiting the consumption of alcohol cannot be a valid solution in a culture deeply ingrained with issues of violence; it is merely a shortterm fix, both superficial and temporary; it’s punishing the masses for the folly of few. It’s easier to put the power in the police rather than in the community. So to what end will we continue bypassing our own judgment and common sense with these petty nursery school laws? How far must we go before we’re all issued the night’s

disused rail corridors. But it’s certainly not limited to tourism alone. Our future pedal and electrically assisted light vehicle transport needs would certainly benefit from the gentle climbs of 1:15 max that our pioneer rail designers have given us as a vital and highly prized infrastructure. I have a vision that the rail line be left intact as a surveying reference and as a vitally efficient service line for the construction of a seriously wonderful two-way cycleway, the design of which could easily be widened for future proofing for generations to come. Heck, the rail line may even be used again too. How wonderful would that be, to ride alongside a tourist train? Let’s design something truly magnificent that could attract funding to get the growing future of light transporters off the dangerous RTA road system, while providing an eco solution for our towns to prosper with iconic aesthetics. Win win win? I reckon. Tim Shanasy

Byron Bay quota of shots (which are transparent and flavourless) as we enter the venue then funneled into a dark room where we consume our shots and speak in hushed whispers for an hour before being herded back home to TV? This alcohol rubbish is just another blockade instead of figuring out a way round, another brick on the soaring wall of laws that we are placing between each other, separating us from common sense. I do not doubt that people are feeling scared and unsafe – which is unhealthy; but the proper way of resolving this is not by seeking protection; that’d be compounding the problem. I want a community that everyone can get involved in and feel a part of, not one where people are afraid of each other. Shaun Fisher

Humanity in ‘uncharted territory’ Humanity is entering uncharted territory following the concentration of the heat-trapping greenhouse gas carbon dioxide in the atmosphere hitting a record daily average high of 400 parts per million (ppm), according to The Climate Institute. ‘Humanity has never been here before. The atmosphere hasn’t seen CO2 this high for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of years. We are in dangerous and uncharted territory, with little time to ensure a safe and sustainable future,’ said John Connor, CEO of The Climate Institute. The 400ppm mark was measured at Hawaii’s Mauna

<echowebsection=Letters>

Loa observatory by the University of California – San Diego, which has tracked northern hemisphere levels of CO2 since 1958. Tasmania’s Cape Grim has taken records since 1976. Both have tracked steady trend increases, but greater northern seasonality allowed Mauna Loa to measure 400ppm first. Both are part of a larger network of similar scientific stations. ‘Atmospheric CO2 levels are 40 per cent higher than before the Industrial Revolution,’ Connor said. ‘Climate scientists say the rise of heat-trapping greenhouse gases is already putting weather systems on steroids

with substantial human and economic costs now in evidence.’ Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology says that rainfall deficiencies are spreading following a string of prolonged heat waves and record-breaking temperatures. ‘As we change the chemical make-up of the atmosphere, we are pushing up the average global temperature,’ said Connor. ‘This is one more clear alarm bell which we ignore at great risk, because, when it comes to extreme weather and climate impacts, we ain’t seen nothing yet!’ Read more at www.climateinstitute.org.au. www.echo.net.au

Aquarius 40 years on

Getting ourselves back to the Garden I By Johnny Allen as told to Graham Askey t’s hard to imagine now but in 1970 there were really only two established rock venues in Sydney. The commercial Bondi Lifesaver and the alternative Arts Factory run by Johnny Allen. Every now and again Johnny would close the inner city venue. ‘This weekend Nutwood Rug and Dharma will be playing at Danny Dopell’s farm at Ourimbah. Come and join us and bring all your friends.’ These small, informal, and free events were Australia’s first ‘rock festivals’. Graeme Dunstan knew all about my ‘mini-Woodstocks’ and he wrote them up in a uni rag as an alternative to the traditional University Arts Festivals. The Australian Union of Students (AUS) must have taken note because we both landed jobs to run their next festival in 1973. The dynamic duo of ‘Superfest’ and ‘Kaptain Kulture’ were ready to change the world. We were coming from somewhat different places. Graeme had a background of radical student politics while my view was that you’d get more people on side if you celebrate rather than demonstrate – but mostly we saw eye to eye, so we soon put together an Aquarius Festival Manifesto. In a nutshell it was Whole Earth Catalog meets Arts Factory and goes off for a lost weekend up the coast at a healthy lifestyle camping ground to get into some spontaneous cultural intercourse. We thought we’d leave the proportions of the different elements in that recipe entirely up to the tribes of people who chose to participate. In the latter part 1972 Graeme and I made several forays to the north coast searching for our Yasgur’s Farm to hold the festival. We couldn’t find it. We’d been rebuffed in Main Arm and by the end of November, and running out of time I made one last desperate recce to area. This time Col James, from the Sydney University School of

Architecture, joined the hunt. I don’t remember exactly how we lucked on Nimbin but when we pulled into Cullen Street we both said, ‘Eureka, let’s recycle this sleepy village.’ We cobbled together a plan. It had to work because there was no plan B. We sought permission firstly from the Bundjalung elders and then from the township. We received the blessing from Lyle Roberts and backing from the local bluey Bob Marsh and from Show Society president Kevin Soward. The locals didn’t need all that much persuading because at a large town meeting on 13 Februrary 1973 they not only agreed, almost unanimously, to allow the festival but pitched in with plans of their own to contribute to the festival. These included a ‘Back to Nimbin’ reunion for early settlers and a tug of war featuring the World Champion Nimbin team. With all lights green Graeme and I could now get on with preparing for the festival itself. As the cultural director of the festival without a program I had it easy. ‘You don’t want anybody? Just try and keep us away’. Philippe Petit, Dollar Brand, Blerta, and the Bauls of Bengal made plans to come from overseas. Local bands like Captain Matchbox and the Bushwackers found room on their calendars. Poor Graeme was all on his own with

more than a hundred volunteers. He established the old RSL as headquarters, the Rainbow as the workers’ kitchen and published the first Nimbin Good Times. Graham Cathcart set up a co-op where food could be bartered with good vibes. Then the lights flashed red. We heard that the ‘backroom boys’ were planning to abort the festival with a motion of no confidence in us on the floor of the AUS Annual Conference. We knew we couldn’t beat these future professional pollies at their own game, so we ambushed the debate by strolling into a deliberately darkened conference hall bearing a large cake ablaze with sparklers and invited all the delegates outside for a pre-Aquarian birthday party. They couldn’t resist and the motion failed for lack of a quorum. So on a sunny 12th of May the baby Aquarius was delivered alive and well in Nimbin. Everything went according to our

lack of plan. The architectural students had created amazing domes, tepees and little grass shacks as shelters. From the Kooris, the Hares and Paul Joseph, competing chants crisscrossed the site. There were unisex dunnies, mixed-sex saunas, free sex from Domain debater Webster and sexagenarian early settlers wide-eyed in the streets. We were circled by circuses, performance circles, talking circles, healing circles, magic circles and joints circling. The absence of laundries was filled with nudity – nude mummies, nude daddies, nude birthing, nude babies, and nude swimming. Like Pepperland in the Yellow Submarine movie, the festival was a kaleidoscope of colour. Then on the fourth day the Blue Meanies dropped in uninvited. Word of smack dealing had been passed onto the police so they swooped on the campsite and arrested five suspects. The mob reacted by surrounding the divi-van. The prisoners were released and an officer’s pistol went missing. Within hours the 21st Division arrived from Sydney. The riot squad made the crowd even more restless and heavy clouds of paranoia threatened our autumn of love. Eventually sanity prevailed, but the incident made me determined to finish the festival on a high note. The Bauls of Bengal had been reaching out across the ocean with a friendly joint but they were held up by Immigration. I flew to Canberra to see our highestplaced contact, Dr H C Coombs. We didn’t know it then but Nugget must have already been primed by a friend. He wasted no time. ‘I know who you are – what do you want?’ The visas were stamped and the Bauls boarded a plane for Brisbane. Still another obstacle awaited them. Bearing a traditional

gift of hashish, one of the Bauls was busted at the airport. I had to bring a thousand bucks to bail the blocked Baul from the Bjelkeland boob. They gave their first concert in Australia on the last night of the festival, under a full moon and to rapturous applause. The love was restored, the Nimbin spirit revived and Pepperland repainted with all the colours of the rainbow. It really was a night for us all to remember. After the festival ended in Nimbin the Aquarius adventure was continued for a while with a nationwide tour by the Bauls, including a thankyou visit to Mt Tambourine to meet the poet Judith Wright. Since 1973 life has been a neverending festival for Johnny Allen. His day job has been directing, or advising, events across Australia and around the world. These days he is passing on his skills to the next generation of festival makers at the University of Technology in Sydney. From those amateurish beginnings at Ourimbah has grown a significant industry. Four decades on in Australia, you could, if you had the stamina, attend a festival every day of the year and still not see them all. Volunteering at events as a way of belonging has become the norm. Joni Mitchell’s hit song may have been about Woodstock in 1969 but her words turned out to be an accurate prophecy for Aquarius in Nimbin 1973.

Aquarius 40 years on

Filmmaker and shaman reunite 40 years on

John Ratter, Karen Cox and Darpan (far right) in the land of myth in Narcissus and Echo (1972) and (right) Darpan 40 years later – shaman and sound healer.

Forty years ago, local shaman Darpan starred in the film that opened the Aquarius Festival, but he has never seen the finished product. In 1972 both Darpan and filmmaker Alan Ingram were studying drama at Flinders University in Adelaide, when Alan started filming Narcissus and Echo for an end of year assignment. ‘At the time, we were all living, mostly naked, in a commune in Norwood’, remembers Alan. Originally intended to be five minutes long, the film ‘became an epic’ about a modern poet who travels through a mirror to the lands of myth. ‘Towards the end, it becomes very psychotic, and the camera follows through the rooms of our house, catching actors who played Gods in the movie, as they actually were at the time.’ It screened in a ‘chock-a-block’ Nimbin Town Hall on the first evening of the Festival to a standing ovation. Alan, who went on to a successful career as a director, including directing the AFI-winning film De-

‘The Festival was a time of great freedom ‌ he would wander about with his girlfriend clad only in hibiscus flowers. The locals didn’t seem to mind‌’ sire, regards Narcissus and Echo as his favourite film – one that is still relevant 40 years later. ‘Everyone is bisexual’, says Alan, ‘and the film speaks to that truth. The sexual revolution hasn’t finished – it will never be over’. The Festival was a time of great freedom, and Alan remembers that, when it was not raining, he would wander about with his girlfriend clad only in hibiscus flowers. The locals didn’t seem to mind, in fact Alan remembers, ‘the locals took photos of us making love in the running streams’. Darpan, now a shaman and sound healer, was in London and missed all the

fun of the 1973 festival, but remembers the previous year’s festival in Canberra as a ‘wild’ event in the ‘halcyon days’. He was studying drama when he agreed to participate in Alan’s film, and later went on to act with La Mama theatre company, among others, in Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney. It wasn’t until the early 1990s that Darpan came to live in the northern rivers, regarding it as, ‘a better place to raise children than the cities’. He is still pushing the boundaries of experience and regularly talks at festivals about using sound as a modality for uplifting and healing. He has just returned from shamanic training in the Peruvian tradition of Curanderismo, or healing using herbs and plants, including special plant diets. ‘Shamanism is about more than just ayahuasca, which by the way is not a hallucinogen’, stresses Darpan. ‘It’s a visionary medicine used with great efficacy for thousands of years, to open you up to very real experiences of dimensions beyond our current space-time’. Narcissus and Echo screened again last Saturday in Nimbin, and thanks to 40 years of technological advances Alan now has a CD of the movie that he can share with Darpan.

Why aren’t you competing in Brazil? Have you quit the tour and taken up tennis? Haha no I haven’t taken up tennis, I don’t mind having a swing every now and then but nothing serious. I’m missing Brazil with a back injury that I did at Bells. How would you describe your personality? What are your strengths and weaknesses? coming from a country town you tend to be pretty cruisy. My strength would be that I know when to switch on and take my job seriously but rest of the time just have fun. Weakness.. Maybe I have too much fun… haha Confidence is a very important attribute in competitive surfing and in life. Did you always feel you were good enough to make it as a pro surfer or did someone pull you aside and tell you? Do you have any tips to increase your confidence? I agree with that statement confidence is very important in surfing, as with a lot of sports. Confidence is one part of the puzzle that can help you to deliver your best performance in the middle of a heat or event. Having the confidence in your fitness, your boards, your manuever choice is very important. I felt like I was good at surfing from an early age, but it wasn’t until I was doing the junior series that I really felt good enough to really have a committed effort to winning the series and also trying to qualify for the world tour. That’s when I spoke with my dad and explained to him how I felt and that I wanted to have a proper go at qualifying. Dad explained what I needed to do to make my dream of qualifying and being a world champion a reality. It was a lot of hard work, but I love a challenge, so we went for it. I don’t know what works for me will

work for everybody, I make sure I do what has been set out in my training programs to the fullest (no cutting corners), surf as much as I can so I feel good on my boards, and I do the small things that feel like they don’t matter over and over again to increase the confidence in my game. Have you had any life changing moments? When I was younger it was things like getting my licence and first car but I’d have to say meeting my girl and watching my sister Tyler win in brazil all by herself... She is a massive inspiration. Did you ever consider a career other than surfing? Never... Ever since I was a tiny grom all I have wanted was to be a professional surfer. What is the best advice you have ever been given? ‘Claw your way to the top’ by my shaper/mentor Laurie Byrne. LENNOX & BYRON Why did you family decide to move north from Cullburra on the south coast of NSW to Lennox? We moved to Lennox as we had been coming up for about 10 years for holidays. My parents felt like a change as they had always been south and it still had that country feel about the place. You come and go between Lennox and Cullburra? How do the two towns differ? Culburra by comparison is way more remote with little passing traffic, it’s a lot more localised as everybody knows everybody which can be cool. Favourite surf spot around Lennox & Byron? The Point is always the best spot to surf at Lennox and the beaches are good too. Favourite place to eat in Lennox or Byron?

The Compressor is a high performance surfboard. The board should be ordered slightly shorter and wider. Gunther then adjusts the nose and tail measurements to keep the board fast loose and positive.

Wetsuit of the year – Under $400 Features: High performance comp panelling. 100% Ultrastetch neoprene throughout. Fully taped internal seams and Fusion tape in upper body. Main feature While it seems a little hard to quantify, many testers suspect that Xcel’s High performance comp

panelling was the x-factor that made this suit so comfortable and that gave it the surprise win the budget category. What the testers thought: This was one of the surprise results of this year’s test. With an incredible list of features the Peak (see below) initially looked hard to beat but then along came the Xcel Infi nity Comp to blow everyone away. It was just as warm and fl exible as any of the other under $400 suits but it was the comfort and the second-skin-like fi t that was reported by every tester that got it the win.

Favorite spots to eat is easy: Byron Sushi and Lennox Mai Tai are favourites. Do you think Lennox is a good spot to be a surfer? For sure. Being in Lennox is really good there is a selection of beach breaks and a world class point break. The Point is good to work on turns that you are really trying nail, mixed with a variety of solid beaches it’s a great spot to be a surfer. The north coast is considered a great spot to grow up, but do you see any challenges for kids growing up here? I grew up on the south coast where surfing was not promoted and there were no events to compete in unless your parents drove you three hours or twelve hours to an event to follow your dreams... So when you get to go you made the most of it! My advice to the kids growing up on the north coast would be just because it’s in your backyard never take it for granted. You live in an amazing place with lots of opportunities. The rocks at Lennox have claimed a lot of victims. Have you lost any skin out there? Make sure you don’t rush your jump-off at Lennox point... Take your time because those rocks have sent many home with less skin, fins and confidence Who is the main guy at Lennox that that has all the respect and nobody drops in on? As a grommet I used to hang out with Stuart Kennedy, he is one of the best local shredders and currently trying to qualify. He’s really competitive and surfs as well as the best .

for this suit and in particular the E4 neoprene, which nearly everyone agreed had the best combo of stretch, lightness and warmth out of all the ‘prenes in the test. What the testers thought The boys had a hard time splitting the top two in the premium category, but when forced to pick one nearly every tester went with the Flash Bomb.

Do you get boards from any of the local shapers up here? I’ve been supported by Byrne surfboards my whole life and I work with them very closely. Where do you get your dings repaired? I don’t get many dings. I take good care of my boards and if I brake one I normally sign it and give it away to some who values it. Any young kids around here you think will make it to the WCT? I’ve been keeping a very close eye on Mikey Wright and I think he has what it takes. A few years and he will be there. You surfed for the LE-BA Boardriders and helped them win the Australia Jim Beam Surftag Titles, which is like winning a grand final in a team sport such as footy or cricket. How was that? They must be stoked to have you on the team. It was the funnest event I’d done in a long time. Great bunch of guys I grew up competing against! It was more stressful and more pressure than surfing for yourself because you didn’t want to let your team down. Great fun though. To be continued next week on echonetdaily.com.au.

Surf Report The recent south swell will tend more southeast, but south facing beach breaks will still be the best option with 3–4 foot waves decreasing during the week. North facing beaches will be very small. Winds will be moderate west to southwest tending more northwest during the week. Conditions are difficult to predict with any certainty later in the week, but early predictions are that the swell will be small.

GIVEAWAYS* TIX TO BOB We have a double pass to give away to some lucky punter to attend the Steinway Piano Upkeep fundraising Bob Dylan Birthday Bash at the Byron Community Centre on Friday If you want to enter the draw to win and become a free subscriber to our online Echonetdaily, just email e.comp@echo.net.au with subject header ‘Bob’s the Word’.

THIS FRIDAY THE STARBOARD CANNONS LINE UP WITH A HOST OF MUSICIANS (DEIDI VINE, CHRIS ARONSTEN, BILL JACOBI, LUKE VASSELLA, JULIE OLIVER, JESSIE VINTILA, TIM STOKES, STU EADIE, THIERRY FOSSEMALLE, ALEX MCLEOD AND STEVE RUSSELL) TO CELEBRATE BOB DYLAN’S BIRTHDAY WITH A VERY SPECIAL TRIBUTE CONCERT TO RAISE FUNDS FOR THE UPKEEP OF THE CENTRE’S STEINWAY PIANO, IN MEMORY OF THE LATE MARGARET DODS. SEVEN CAUGHT UP WITH THE STARBOARD CANNONS TO GET THE LOWDOWN. Tell me a little about the underlying ethos of Starboard Cannons? We’ve all been playing music professionally for a long time, and any notions we may have had about being hip or cool or commercially ‘successful’ are now just punchlines we use to tease each other. We don’t really have any ethos except to have fun and be real. There is definitely a place for musicians to act out their stage characters when they perform, but none of us really has the attention span for that. We all love playing all kinds of music, and Starboard Cannons represents a place where we all meet on common ground. We aren’t trying to shape our music into any particular style or genre, we just do what we do with the songs that get written. What is it about the Australian landscape that provides the backdrop for so many of your songs? Songs can be so broadly relevant to so many people. Seems like the more vague and ambiguous a song is, the more popular it becomes. I like giving details. Australia’s landscape, both geographically and culturally, is unique in the world, and I try to capture things that might seem totally normal to any other Australian, but may leave people from other nationalities thinking ‘what’s he on about? – that’s not how you write songs‌’ Also, it just happens to be a good way to set the scene for a story. What most attracts you to tales of love and loss? Songs are inspired by emotion. Emotion comes from love and loss. Everyone reacts differently when presented with these emotions, and I like presenting different aspects of a fairly normal situation. It’s the subtleties within the emotions that I find carry the most weight in real life, so that’s what I try to bring to the surface when writing something. Do you find yourself looking for narratives for songwriting or do you just have to notice them when they present themselves? I have tried to source inspiration for the purpose of writing, but it never works. It has to be something that actually affects me personally to be able to make a song that is meaningful. I don’t often write literally about any experience, but take a notion that presents itself and use the concept to build something else. Who are the singer/songwriters that have influenced you? Every day I discover new singer/songwriters that influence me to varying degrees. It’s hard to know if you are being influenced by someone or you just really love what they do. If I had to give you five songwriters who I believe have had the most influence over my own songwriting, they would have to be Paul Simon, Paul Kelly, Ryan Adams, Jeff Lang and Fat Mike from NOFX. What should we expect from Starboard Cannons at the Bob Dylan Birthday Bash? We were lucky enough to be able to do the three songs we most wanted to do, so it is going to be a lot of fun. Top-class band and such a brilliant venue. We have chosen three quite different tracks and have given them all a good dose of Cannonsing. Dylan was a master lyricist, and I want to put the focus on what the guy was trying to say. But his songs have a remarkable way of being quite malleable, and we’ve been able to have some fun with them. We manage to become quite energetic whenever we perform, so expect us to be having a good time.

What’s the latest for you guys? What’s next on the agenda? We released the album internationally just recently, and we’re getting a bit of airplay in different countries. It’s really interesting to see who are the most responsive. The Netherlands seems to be winning at the moment, closely followed by Canada and a bit of interest in the USA. The focus at the moment is on festivals. We have done a few great ones so far this year and we’ve got some more good ones coming up soon. Other than that, our hope is to have another album out some time early next year, so I suppose we should get onto that. Byron Community Centre – Friday. 7.30pm. $25/20. Book on byroncentre.com.au.

ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME? I’ve always had a bit of a self-esteem problem. For a long time I have thought I was a lot more attractive than I actually am. Every time I look in the mirror it confirms my thesis that I am rather nice looking. Of course I never look in the mirror without preparing myself first. I’d never just look. That would be shocking. I don’t want to see what other people see. I need to maintain my personal delusion. I open my eyes wide (this is important as they are small, close set and very squinty), I lift my chin (I have a spare that sneaks up if I’m not careful) and I hold my mouth in a particular way, with a slight tilt of the head and a surprised look. I have even read in a magazine helpful hints about how to look good in a photo. It has tips for improving one’s overall presentation. Apparently you are supposed to face the camera as if you are looking over a fence, chin elevated, but not so much that your nostrils are flaring and to get a fuller look it helps to push one’s tongue into the roof of one’s mouth. You have to watch your arms. They need to be held a few inches from your body and slightly bent so you don’t look boxy. It feels a bit Action Man but I am assured it’s the secret to maintaining passable attractiveness. Over the years I have been told I look like a lot of famous people. None of it has ever been terribly flattering. When I was 19 my girlfriend and I were approached by a gentleman who tried to woo us both. He told Jo she looked like the lead singer of Blondie. Then he told me I reminded him of

Phyllis Diller. I was 19 years old. Even then she was an old woman. I had the perfect comeback – I said, ‘Just as well beauty is only skin deep otherwise I’d be rotten to the core’. Then I remembered. That’s not my line. That’s classic Diller. Shit. Like most people I’ve been told that I look a lot like random famous people and personally I don’t see the likeness. Lisa Kudrow, Barbara Streisand, Pamela Stephenson, Matt Damon are just a few. But more recently I was confronted with probably the most frighteningly accurate likeness. I was in the video shop browsing when I heard someone go, ‘No way, is that one of the dudes from White Chicks?’ I loved that movie, so I turned around expecting to see Shawn or Marlon Wayans, one of the handsome black dudes playing these two FBI agents who do deep undercover work as two white chicks. The plot revolves around whiteface drag as the Wayans pose as the Wilson sisters to undercover some sort of subterfuge. As I recall, it ends when they all decide to make a pact to stay together and go shopping. I realised that I was the only person at the video store. I was in the comedy section, so I reach down and grab myself a copy of White Chicks and I glance up at the security video. It’s me. I am the dude that looks like the dudes out of White Chicks. Finally at 45 I have found out what I really look like: an Afro-American Man in whiteface drag. It’s disturbing, and I refuse to accept that I look like a man. Okay, I’ll admit it, I wear my hair the same shade of yellow. I wear too much makeup and red lipstick. I have a mannish nose. And I have an at times tacky approach to dressing. At first I thought it was just a teenager being rude. Then I told a friend the story and instead of backing me up and reaffirming my belief that I don’t look anything like that, they started laughing, going, ‘Yes! Yes! You really do!’ In fact everyone who I mention it to agrees. White Chicks.

le matter young peop

My daughter told me her friends have been saying it to her for years. I told her she better watch out because she’s the one who looks most like me, so pretty soon she’ll be turning into a black man in whiteface drag too. I haven’t been able to go to the video shop for months, and it’s not just the late fees. It’s my head. I can hear what they’re thinking: ‘How much does that woman look like the dudes in White Chicks. And okay, I’ll finally admit it. They’re right. I guess instead of fighting it I should accept it with grace, and start charging for autographs. I just have this fantasy that the Wayan brothers are in a video store somewhere in LA and someone from Mullumbimby wanders up and goes, ‘Fuck, you dudes look like Mandy Nolan’.

E N T E R T A I N M E N T the natural conclusion that the most amazing way they could take individuals on a deep journey would be to collaborate and engulf TSUN AT THE HOTEL GREAT the mind NORTHERN ON SATURDAY body and senses with the deep primal sounds and vibrations of the gongs and didgeridoos. The Dream Drone is a unique sound, pioneered by Si Mullumby, that is created using Australia’s iconic instrument the yidaki, also known as the didgeridoo. The instrument is used in its capacity to create the primordial vibration, a sound that has no rhythm or melodic hook lines, that participants can feel moving inside the room, the body, and thus the mind. This sound has the power to take the listener on an inner journey that is as varied and individual as there are people on the planet. For some it is mystical, for others it creates sensations in the body; some just enjoy the warmth and good energy created. Healing Hertz is pioneered by Steve and Anna. They experienced the healing power of the gongs many years ago and were inspired to fully embrace it as a healing modality and raise vibrational frequency by introducing it to as many people as possible. They have been running sound-healing journeys and transformational experiences for the last four years through small and large groups. Through this healing experience there is the opportunity for one to become deeply relaxed, nourished and re-energised. Mullumbimby High School on Saturday. Tix: $40 (+bf) Pre $45 Door. Available: healinghertz.iwannaticket.com.au. Doors: 8pm / show 8.30pm. Bring a mat and blanket; 16-years-plus event; chai and cakes.

BEC AND BEN HAVE JUST RELEASED THIS IS WHY I LOVE YOU AND TO LAUNCH THEIR DEBUT THEY ARE TOURING WITH A BUNCH OF SHOWS IN QLD AND NSW. THEY SPOKE WITH SEVEN ABOUT THEIR MUSICAL UNION. So how did you two meet? We met when Ben replied to an ad I posted on Gumtree. I was looking for musicians to form a five-piece band with me for another project I’d been working on for a year. This abruptly dissipated after we met. Our chemistry as songwriters superseded the big-band project so we decided to move forward as a duo. Is there something akin to meeting a romantic soulmate when you find your musical compadre… or is it even rarer? You could compare the experience very easily with dating; you meet many possibilities, but aligning with someone that has the motivation to commit… well… if you’re single you know what I’m talking about. It’s rare. I have personally struggled with my affection for Ben, sometimes confusing my excitement for our musical connection with a romantic attraction to him. How do you two write together? Give me the heads-up on your process? I usually write when I’m driving. I never listen to the radio; I make up jingles instead and record them as a voice memo, take them home and try to play something simple on guitar and hand it over to Ben. He constructs the instrumental elements and critiques my writing. We write very easily together. Ben knows how to make my – mostly minimalistic – vision of a song into a finished product. What are the things that fire you up? Lack of responsibility. Victimhood. NSW Transport Authorities. The unjustified increases in taxes, tolls and parking levies and while I’m at it, lack of parking in Sydney. Tell me a little about your debut single This is Why I love You – where you recorded; why you chose to debut with this one? We recorded the final version at Linear Recording in Sydney. I don’t really enjoy recording so Ben is head of this department. We chose the song because it was the most popular from our live show. What is it in a song, do you think, that sometimes sets it apart? Lyrics. We both appreciate any genre with good lyrics. You have to be responsible for what you’re saying. I’m not going to pay much attention to an empty, cliche-fuelled conversation and pretend to engage; it’s the same with a song.

Fightt Yourr Way y Thro ough h UFC 160 (Ultimate Fighting Championships) will feature a short heavyweight re-match title.

The Bird will Gllo

THE IMPRINTS AT KULCHAJAM ON THURSDAY

National and international festival act The Bird play GLO Dance at Uki Hall for a very rare local show. Having just come from performing the closing set for the WOMADelaide Festival, The Bird bring their phenomenal playing to Uki Hall. As musicians, The Bird have sought an organic interpretation of computer-generated forms of music, combing live drum and bass, breakbeats, dubstep and electro-synth lines, with sounds from the Asian underground, and some serious dub vibes. The Bird’s music is a journey through these numerous influences and stylistics, executed in a funkafied soulful electronica sound that is their trademark style. Simon Durrington brings his amazing live keyboard and sampling skill to the stage together with the absolute

drumming dynamo that is Ben Walsh. Together their cross-genre show creates a highly dynamic organic response to the dance floor. The Bird have toured the country and overseas extensively, playing at many venues and festivals including Glastonbury, Livid, Falls, Adelaide, Woodford, Two Tribes, the Sydney Opera House Studio, and Sydney Festival to name a few. This rare appearance in the area is one show not to miss. Information and tickets at www.GLOdance.com. Friday at Uki Hall 8pm.

Blin ndLo oves The BlindLoves were born on the verandah of Belle and Barry’s beachside abode, where Kellie Knight found herself spending many a night dining on Belle’s delicious cooking, and strumming the neverending tunes of songwriters Barry Milan, Belle Hendrik and Kellie Knight. The trio quickly realised they had some chemistry, and so bonded with a mutual love of harmony and, armed with a vast repertoire of songs, these three songwriters join together to come out into the world, newborn lovebirds serenading you with lilting three-part vocals, acoustic guitars and bass. Thursday at the Treehouse in Byron.

Tell me about pleasure and pure destruction… isn’t this the driving force of most rock legends?! What? You are asking me to speak on behalf of most rock legends? Sorry, it’s impossible, I have know idea about this kind of life. I like sex and smoking, but I’m not an advocate of pure destruction. What are you working on at the moment? Creative collaborations focusing on textiles and multimedia. The textiles side is a collaboration with Domingo Morchio of Mi-Wallet, a local paper-wallet brand. We ran a public collective illustration campaign where people submitted their impressions of the term ‘This Is Why I Love You’. The submissions are going to be the artwork for the wallets, which will support our range of merchandise. Also, I have been working with our creative director Patricia Longhurst on lighting installations and developing a live stream application for our shows. What should we expect for your Byron Show? Sore cheeks, lots of smiling. We love Byron – as a place to play but also as an aspiration to live in the future. Byron is yet to see us perform with our new bass player, Spike Thompson. He’s super rad and the sound is much greater with his contribution. Friday at the Hotel Great Northern.

Comedy for Corndale Twenty years ago, Corndale macadamia nut farmers Chris and Pat Jung asked their friend the comedian Jonathan Atherton to put together a comedy night to raise money for the Corndale hall, in order to build a toilet block. Since then Jonathan has been back every year, helping to raise money for a deck, painting, and so on. This year the hall needs money not for cosmetic reasons, but for its very existence. According to hall committee secretary Richard Hurley, ‘The public liability insurance alone is $6,000 a year. Many halls in the area are not putting on events because they unable to raise money for insurance.’ Jonathan Atherton is not able to attend in person this year as he is busy running his Comedy Club Asia empire with venues in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia and Thailand, but he has left the talent wrangling in the hands of the other comedian at the original show twenty years ago, Greg Sullivan. Greg has performed at most of the annual Corndale shows since then and so fell in love with the area that he moved his young family to Durrumbul when he finished his fourteen-year stint on Brisbane breakfast radio. Greg wants to make this the biggest Corndale Comedy night yet. ‘Over the years many of the biggest names in comedy have done this little hall, and I want to get as many of them back as possible. Akmal Saleh, Arj Barker and Jimeoin all have houses in the shire and I’ll be seeing if any of them are in the area and willing to drop by, as well as a live video link to Jonathan in Singapore.’ Greg has also enlisted the help of a Sydney filmmaker to shoot footage on the night for a television show pilot. ‘I was thinking about how I could do more shows like Corndale and I hit on the idea of The Long Hall Tour, with comedians performing in community halls around the country, raising money for things they need, like wheelchair ramps, new roofs and so on.’ Greg would like anyone who has attended the shows over the years to come along and be interviewed for the pilot. The lineup will include Sydney-based Edinburgh Festival favorite Julia Wilson, this year’s JJJ Raw Comedy national finalist Becky Lucas, Brisbane alternative music/ comedy scene legend Aaron Gocs, The Queen of Byron Shire, Mandy Nolan, and any of the other big names who might be around and willing to help out. Saturday from 7pm. $30 a head. BYO drinks, supper provided. For bookings call Richard on 6688 2052 or Mark 6628 4178, all proceeds to the Corndale Hall.

s r a t S WITH LILITH This week’s Sun joining Mercury, Venus and Jupiter in the sign of Happy Birthday Gemini pops the cork on a froth of socialising, a networking frenzy, a fervour of information exchange…

E ARIES: This effervescent week ignites some plans, while others might explode. Don’t push yourself to make decisions if you’re feeling upset, unsettled or up in the air. As an Aries you want situations sorted in order to move forward, so do that by simply taking smaller, bite-size steps. F TAURUS: It’s going to take adaptability, resilience and teamwork to deal with this week’s fluctuations, variations and people with blazing brains talking at warp speed. If your Tauran paws itch for the mute button, call calm, grounded, earth-sign friends together for a debrief to restore emotional poise. G GEMINI: With this week’s planets of luck, love and effusive communication aligning your heart and mind, consider these words from the Buddha, whose birthday celebrations imply he’s a Gemini: Only three things matter in life: how fully you live, how much you love, how gracefully you’re able to let go… H CANCER: A plethora of planetary energy in the sign of active minds and mobile mouths spritzes this week with a seltzer of stimulating socialising – which expands you beyond your habitual sphere of activity to connect with a whole new can of acquaintances outside your usual circle. I L EO: Don’t believe all you hear this week. Or all

you think. Or try to force answers when they’re not forthcoming. If you’re making changes be clear about what you’re prepared to do to maintain them. And resist making promises you may not want to honour later on. J VIRGO: If you do something less than perfect this week, remember the unconscious operates in mysterious ways and sometimes mistakes are a route to exactly what we needed. This week attracts lucky breaks, so don’t wait for invitations – take the initiative, make a move, reach out. K L IBRA: If the planetary quadrella in Gemini excites a desire to expand your understanding by study or your horizons through travel, well, they’re both useful strategies for sidestepping other people’s agendas. Not interested in learning or journeying? Then midweek Moon’s guaranteed to get your social pheromones pumping… L SCORPIO: Been blowing up a storm on Saturn, so how’s the weather in your personal world: Cages rattled? Appearances questioned? Evolution accelerated? Let others do the talking this week while you listen and learn more than you ever expected. And reap the benefits during late-week Scorpio moon. the Glenugie Valley where Metgasco recently initiated fracking operations. To demonstrate their strong opposition, the Franklin family joined other farmers and the northern rivers community at the Glenugie blockade of Metgasco’s exploratory well. Despite the evident dangers of methane gas fracking, the politicians apparently didn’t understand or didn’t care about the real threat to water, food and our future from the illegal poisoning of irreplaceable fresh water with radioactive toxins.

M S AGITTARIUS: Things come in couples this week, so if one encounter dents your confidence, the next reboots it. Work in with the present twin energy by following Excellent Adventure duo Bill and Ted’s two simple philosophic principles: (a) Be Excellent To Each Other and (b) Party On. N CAPRICORN: This week’s set against a backdrop of escalating collective tension relieved by spurts of breakthrough change. But it’s still receptive to your ideas so make calls, follow up contacts, revamp your resume. Midweek’s auspicious for job interviews and pitches if you keep presentations light, witty and incisive. O AQUARIUS: While this week sees you brainstorming playful ideas with interesting newbies, astral energy’s in the sign of flip and tactless remarks so it’s worth editing any edgy comments. And don’t be too quick to label things excellent or awful – leave room for exploration and expanding understanding. P P ISCES: This week mixes the kind of cosmic cocktail Pisceans like, with your glass way more than half full of energetic networking, exciting ideas and interesting opportunities to show off your signature style and advanced flirting skills. But it still requires an eyes-wide-open approach to investments…

CHESS

by Ian Rogers Play at Byron Services Club, Mon 7pm For the second consecutive cycle, Canberra’s Emma Guo has come tantalisingly close to qualifying for the Women’s World Championship tournament only to be beaten in a tiebreaker. At the Oceania Women’s Zonal in Fiji last week, Guo scored an unbeaten 8/9 but her big score was matched by the top seed, Sydney’s Irina Berezina; the player who had tied with Guo at the same event two years earlier in Rotorua but had been largely inactive since then. Just as in 2011, Guo and Berezina were required to complete a rapid time limit playoff in order to decide Oceania’s representative for the World Championship KO tournament, and just as in 2011 Berezina won 2-0. The playoff was hard-fought and much less decisive than the scoreline might indicate. Meanwhile in the concurrent Open Zonal also being played in Fiji, Igor Bjelobrk was the surprise winner after a last round win over the top seed Grandmaster Darryl Johansen. The popular former

Black’s position is holding by a thread and only 11...Bxh6 12.Qxh6 Ng4! keeps the game alive. 12.hxg6 fxg6 13.Bxg7 Kxg7 14.Qh6+ Kf7 Desperation, but 14...Kg8 15.e5 Nh5 16.Ng5 is curtains. 15.Ng5+ Ke8 16.Nxh7 Qxd4 16...Rg8 17.Nxf6+ exf6 18.Qh7 is also hopeless. 17.Qxf8+ Kd7 18.Nxf6+ exf6 19.Rh7+ 1-0

Promised Land

TUESDAY

When reduced to basic building blocks, all cinema (all art, you might say) is social commentary. Few filmmakers, however, are as overt in stating a case as Gus Van Sant – Elephant (2003) and Milk (2008) got right in the face of gun culture and homophobia. In this he has tackled the red-hot topic of coal seam gas mining. Matt Damon is Steve Butler, an energy company rep who, with fellow employee Sue Thomason (Frances McDormand), is buying up leases in a struggling farming community in the mid-west.

What better actor to play the wholesome country boy who has arrived to save the battlers from financial ruin? Steve considers that clinging to the past and resisting progress is mere ‘delusional selfmythologising’. He believes in what he’s doing and Van Sant allows him to make cogent, reasonable arguments to support his and the big end of town’s position. This is the movie’s strength – that Steve, if not his bosses, is so upright, so genuine. Docos, polemic in nature, preach to the converted (who often

have their own entrenched prejudices), whereas dealing with an issue of critical importance via the means of traditional storytelling – with romance, conflict and identifiable characters – can convert the uncommitted and/or apathetic mob. As well as it being stimulating and relevant, Van Sant has given us a fine entertainment, at once subversive, pugnacious and tender. Avarice is an unfair charge to make of a poor mother whose only hope of sending her child to college is to accept the company’s

21 MAY to

money, and Van Sant does well to stress this to those of us on our high horses. The townsfolk will vote on whether they will acquiesce, but the ground starts to shift under Steve’s feet when the battle is joined by an environmental campaigner. ‘This is all we have’ is a message that is taking too long to sink in to our collective conscience – Van Sant’s wonderful movie will go some way to hurrying it up. And the sting in the tail is a beauty. ~ John Campbell

The Hunt

1.00PM SUNDAY

Soon after meeting Lucas (Mads Mikkelsen), a popular, divorced teacher at a smalltown Danish kindergarten, we are in an autumn forest with him. He sees a deer, he shoots it, and its lifeless eyes fill the screen as it hits the ground. It’s a pertinent metaphor, but I took an immediate dislike to him and, despite the plight that he would find himself in, I was unable to garner any empathy with the bloke. It is a mindset thing, I guess. And that is what director Thomas Vinterberg is coming to grips with – mindsets and their intractability. An

www.echo.net.au

innocent occurrence on just another day at work results in disastrous consequences when little Klara (Annita Wedderkop) untruthfully tells the headmistress that Lucas has exposed himself to her. The scene is chilling, with Klara’s face dimly lit and the child displaying an uncanny mixture of the angelic and the malevolent. I didn’t like the kid at any point; in fact my blood ran cold every time she appeared (she reminded me of the dolls that were such a staple of old B&W hauntedhouse movies) and I wondered if that was the intention.

What Vinterberg highlights most brutally, though, is our seemingly bottomless capacity for believing the worst of others. Lucas’s fellow teachers do not think for a minute that their erstwhile friend might not be guilty of the offence with which he has been charged. Quite the opposite – their sanctimonious group-think leads them to encourage the rest of the children to ‘remember’ similar things happening to them. Lucas, suddenly a despised outcast, must come to terms with the Crucible-like mentality that surrounds him

while sheltering his teenage son from the horrors of his persecution. Outside, a bitterly cold northern winter descends, and the good burghers celebrate Yuletide with public bonhomie, but vindictiveness is in their hearts. Gripping, emotionally exhausting and uncomfortably honest in its depiction of how thin is our veneer of civility, it’s a terrific film with a brilliant performance from Mikkelsen – but Klara really spooked me. ~ John Campbell

1. A recent, well-reviewed Australian movie gets a screening, but it’s not pretty: Snowtown (SBS1, Saturday, 9.30pm) chronicles the tale of some real-life brutal murders in a South Australian town – which hasn’t done much for its tourism image – and the unhealthy relationship between the two men who committed the murders. 2. This is the first in the highly successful martial arts franchise Rush Hour (GO!, Sunday, 9.30pm) starring the irrepressible Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker. Hong Kong Detective Inspector Lee (Chan) finds himself in LA investigating the kidnapping of the Chinese consul’s daughter. He is assigned detective James Carter (Tucker) as a babysitter, and so this amusing and energetic buddy movie kicks off. See more at www.jackiechan.com.

Muoi’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.

itself. I have always found this to be the greatest charm of the Byron at Byron, that in spite of its seriously glamorous atmosphere and accommodation, its sumptuous rainforest setting, its infinity pool and its spa rooms and its comfortable alfresco lounge areas for predinner drinks, its consummately professional staff and level of service, its serene selfcontained air of discrete chic – in spite of all that it is totally devoid of affectation, stuffiness and arrogance. It welcomes locals as warmly as it does its regular high-profile and international guests. And Gavin’s menu, refreshingly down-to-earth and largely fadresistant, reflects that perfectly, especially with its focus on local produce. Because this is his other passion: the farmers market. Anyone frequenting the Byron Bay one on Thursdays could not fail to notice Gavin, generally in charge of an entourage of resort guests. He has been taking market tours every week for years and years and in fact was rewarded recently by being named an ambassador for the Byron Bay Farmers Market (along with the equally supportive Belinda Jeffery). He tells me that going to the market is like going to church. ‘You walk away feeling good about yourself. They (the growers) are all so bloody nice. It’s inspiring for me to go‌ it’s humbling. The growers are so inspirational.’ As is Gavin himself, proof that hard work and persistence and stubbornness pay off. And that remaining centred (‘you’re just a bloody cook at the end of the day’) and a family man with two sons, whose birthdays he hopes one day not to have to keep missing, add up to one of the nicest people around. I nearly forgot to mention that his version of Coq au Vin is fantastic!

It’s a Buffet with a main meal... The Buffet D’hote is a buffet with a twist. As you are seated at your table there will be a choice of six mouth-watering main meals to choose from or you may help yourself to the buffet selection. You are also welcome to indulge in both a main meal and the buffet, the choice is yours. Adults $39 | Children 5-12yrs $25 | Children under 5 free.

TWEED HEADS

Muoi’s Feast

There is something poignant about the image. Gavin Hughes, a teenager fully kitted out in his cook’s uniform, walking around the house where he lived with his parents on a council estate in Scotland – parents, furthermore, from whom there was never any encouragement to pursue dreams. Gavin has been head chef of the restaurant at the Byron at Byron for the past nine years and yet has lost neither pride in his profession nor sight of his roots. Given the stellar environment in which he operates – this is a five-star, much-awarded resort – his reluctance to see himself as anything more elevated than a stubborn hard-working man renders him one of the more loveable, and humble, chefs we have in the region. Nine years in the same place as far as the hospitality industry goes is impressive, even more so in a season-driven, fickle, highturnover town like Byron Bay. Furthermore, Gavin’s position as head of the kitchen brigade was one he had not actively sought, one that was rather thrust upon him. After stints at The Bower Room (now The Balcony) and Ruby’s he had wound up at the resort under Matt Wilde. ‘No way’, he tells me, ‘was I executive chef of a five-star resort‌ I’d wanted to stay as second chef – I never wanted to be head chef. Then Matt left.’ And so the position fell to Gavin. ‘John [ParchĂŠ, general manager] believed in me.’ John and Lyn ParchĂŠ, who have been running that delectable resort from the beginning, are impeccably qualified to gauge the measure of their hospitality staff. Somehow they saw how utterly right for the place this plain-spoken, passionate, exuberant Scotsman would be. His food is smart without being fussy, reliant on quality produce and ingredients, as relaxed and informal and unpretentious as the place

Our longest staying resident Prada is still patiently waiting for a loving family to take her home. She is a beautiful girl with the most amazing green eyes and loves to be petted. She’d prefer to be an only cat and ultimately is desperate for someone to love her as she has so much to give. She’s seen lots of cats come and go at the shelter so surely it’s her turn now for a wonderful new life. To meet Prada, visit the Cat Adoption Centre at 124 Dalley St, Mullumbimby.

Not too keen on most other cats (but love kittens). Cleo is a ginger tabby colour (see web) and neither have tails as they are Manx breed. About two years old They are devoted to each other and are quite happy just to sit around and watch the world go by. Certainly not overly active. Just quiet and peaceful. All cats are desexed, vaccinated and microchipped.

Devils resurrect their season by flogging Papists Story & photo John Campbell

Reports of the demise of Byron Bay as a force in the NRRRL have been proven to be premature after their 40–28 demolition of Marist Brothers at Red Devil Park on Sunday. On a perfect arvo for footy, and before an estimated 4,003 delighted patrons, the Devils’ victory was as comprehensive as it was unforeseen. Having found themselves languishing near the bottom of the ladder, the glamour side of the comp (they hate to be thought of as such, but it is their cross to bear and they should defy the paradigm of false modesty and carry it with defiance) were beginning to look like embarrassing duds. The Brothers from Lismore, who had easily beaten the Bay in April, were simply torn apart by their hosts’ wrathful return to form. The final scoreline gave no indication of the gap in class between the two sides. Lock Joseph Gordon put

one back against the run of play, so classically constructed and finely executed had been Byron’s performance – or, in footy parlance, they were all over ’em and should have gone to the break with their opponents at naught. Their defence was enthusiastic and mobhanded and barely a ball was dropped nor a kick misplaced, with none making more headway in the opening exchanges than props Brett ‘Choc’ Harvey and, looking like his old rampaging self, Simon ‘Toothless’ Kelly. A lead of 28–6 at half-time will always, at any level, promote the idea that the job has been done and the outcome assured – and reasonably so. The quality of Byron’s football had been lovely to watch, prompting the Old Bloke to Byron’s half-back and captain, Ryan O’Connell, carrying the ball GI style against Marist Brothers wistfully remark ‘they remind at Red Devil Park on Sunday. me of my days with the Moree Boomerangs’ – which is high first points on the board when added by centre Bill ‘have you ry, Michael ‘Twiggy’ Lambert praise indeed.

Another notch in Byron’s belt Peter Griffin

Byron Bay rugby has added another chapter in their remarkable comeback season to First Grade, beating Grafton 29–17 at home on Saturday. After seven rounds and with a game in hand Byron Bay sit third on the ladder behind Lennox Head and Lismore. The Bay are six points clear of fourth placed Wollongbar. Byron Bay’s peace-loving army of supporters are well aware of the team’s courage and never-say-die attitude. But the perennial rugby underdogs showed us two new things on Saturday: composure and flair. In a game where the lead changed five times Byron were faultless in their options, attacking at the right time with pace and width and playing tough, uncompromising rugby to close out the victory. Grafton opened the scoring against some unusually brittle Byron defence but the Bay replied with their superior athleticism in midfield. In an even and at times brutal start to the game, Grafton struck the next blow when Byron prop Josh Smith was carried from the field with what appeared to be a terminal injury. The visitors took a 10–7 lead while Byron were down to 14 players. Smith miraculously made his way back onto the field to ignite the play of the season, a sweeping length of the field try from a defensive lineout that stunned both Grafton and the large gallery of supporters. Smith threw a curling cut pass for blockbuster centre Harry Nutall to break

the line and release centre partner George Kitching. Superbly athletic winger Mitch Loane loomed on the outside and left the visiting Redmen in his wake. Grafton stayed in the game with a counter attacking try from a perfect chip kick and when Byron second rower Matt Larsson was sin binned the visitors scored a push over try against the Bay’s depleted scrum for a 17–12 lead. Byron kept it tight, hammered their way up field and were rewarded when prop Craig Wallace powered over with nine minutes on the clock. Man of the hour Mitch Loane stepped up and produced the worst looking successful conversion of all time. Before the delirium had subsided Byron was in again to seal a memorable bonus point win. Centres Nutall and Kitching were outstanding with a try each. Playmakers Jack Dickson and Jass Saek were all quality while Smith and rejuvenated Tom Homer were the best of a tough, hardworking and skilled forward pack. Byron Bay is at home at the Recreation Fields again this Saturday with a massive assignment against Lismore for Ladies Day. Kickoff is at 3.30pm and admission is free. Hey Ladies, grab all the girls and come down this Saturday the 25th to the Byron Bay Rugby Union for our Ladies Day. Enjoy the game with canapes, refreshments and prizes in our ground side tent and support our boys. The action starts at 3pm with a 3.30pm kick-off against Lismore at our Marvel street ground. See you all there!

concerned us all was whether or not Byron would have the resolve within them to stifle any resistance. Byron did bundy-off briefly, but had De Thierry brought his kicking boots the winning margin would have been appropriately enhanced by the three uncoverted tries that the Devils added – to Lowrie again (off a miracle inside pass from winger Scott ‘shaved legs’ Stapleton), Kelly and Webber. Byron Bay has been accused by its detractors of lacking heart, of not having the steel to compete with the heavyweights when the going gets tough. Coach Nathan Cross will know that, apart from knocking off the premiers in the first round, they have done little to bury such talk. Next week’s trip to Ballina looms as a watershed. It marks the halfway point of the minor premiership. If the Devils are to realise their potential they will need to turn up as Dr Jekyll, not their too-often-seen Mr Hyde.

Suns looking bright on AFL horizon Matthew Lodge

An emphatic seven-goal third quarter has paved the way for Gold Coast’s 31-point over the Western Bulldogs at Metricon Stadium on Saturday night. In a round of high-quality football, the Suns brought many smiles to the faces of their supporters with the win ensuring the first instance of back-to-back wins in the Gold Coast’s three-year history in the AFL. Had Collingwood fallen to Geelong, the Suns would have sat ninth on the ladder – outside the eight on percentage – and given AFL CEO Andrew Demetriou one of the happiest moments of his life next to the birth of his children. At 4-4, the Suns sit at 12th on the AFL ladder, on level peggings with finals contenders Adelaide, Carlton and West Coast, just one game outside

the top eight. The Suns fell into the bad habits so frequently exhibited in their initial seasons in the AFL in the first half, at one point trailing by 25 points during the second quarter. They drew level before half time as the teams arm-wrestled for almost three quarters before the home side burst clear. Trailing midway through the third term, Gold Coast slammed on six successive goals to round out the quarter and put the result beyond doubt. Despite being definitively out-possessed (397-335 disposals), the work rate of the young Gold Coast side demonstrated the maturity required at the top level despite battling for much of the first half. Campbell Brown was among the catalysts for the matchwinning burst, kicking the first two goals and finished with three for the game.

ing four of them. Best: Nick Frazier, Cai Leplaw, Jeremy Callanan. The under-15s found Lennox Head far too strong in the forwards and went down 27–3 despite creating several scoring opportunities but failing to cross the line.

Gary Ablett led from the front with 31 touches while Jaeger O’Meara (25) was again superb in his first season. O’Meara’s freakish left-footed goal while being dragged to the ground lifted his teammates and the 13,520 spectators. He backed it up moments later, winning the ball in a huge collision with Brett Goodes on the wing that ended up in an Aaron Hall goal. The Suns’ resilience was again tested – although they passed with flying colours – through the entire second half when ruckman Zac Smith hyperextended a knee early and was substituted. The loss is the Bulldogs’ seventh straight, and their 18th loss in the past 19 games. Adam Cooney (31 disposals), Ryan Griffen (29) and Matthew Boyd (29) were prolific in the midfield, while first-year players Jake Stringer (three goals)

and Jackson Macrae (26) were poised and impressive. Speaking post-match, Gold Coast Coach Guy McKenna said he spoke of ‘composure’ as a buzz word for his side entering the match. ‘We had to keep matching the Dogs in contested footy, which I thought we did’, said McKenna. ‘Once we got it out of that contested situation we had to be patient, show some more composure, which we did in that third quarter. ‘The thing that kept us in the game all night was the pressure. Our ability to hunt them when they had the ball was super.’ After consecutive wins against oppositions of similar ability, the Suns will be really tested as they face a high-flying Hawthorn outfit next Sunday afternoon at the MCG. Gold Coast Sun 13.15 (93) to Western Bulldogs 8.13 (61).

Brunswick Babes are back Gary Osbiston

After their valiant draw the week before, the spirits of the Brunswick Babes under-13 girls were high at training last week. The girls were bubbling with enthusiasm in pre-game warm-up and captain Bracie led the 10 girls cut. This promised to be a tough game with the Babes fielding 10 players and Bangalow with a full team and two subs. Bangalow took the kick-off and 20 seconds later Brunswick Babes were down 1–0. They had not switched on for the match – but that early lapse did the trick and the team were on fire for the rest of first half. Striker Isabelle had her scoring boots well and truly on with four well taken first half goals.The half time score was 4-1 to Brunswick.

A much tighter game was played in the second half and a tiring 10-girl Brunswick team kept pressing forward eager for more goals – they came very close on many occasions but injuries sustained in the first half were starting to take their toll. But there is fire in this team’s defence – goalkeeper and midfield were determined their goal line was not going to be breached. The final score at the end of the match was Brunswick 4 to Bangalow 1. The whole Brunswick team were applauded as they left the pitch; the coach and parents all very proud of this first win of the season. A great effort by all 10 girls. They were tired and bruised, ice packs were applied to knees but all were smiling. Well done girls!

Pies undefeated and a 105-point win Joe Davidson

A massive first half set up an outstanding win for the Byron Coopers Magpies on Friday night at Shultz Oval, Bangalow. With a final score of 18.18.126 to 3.3.21, the Magpies were unmatched by their Queensland opponents, the Bond Uni Bull Sharks. Before the game commenced, Coach Dave Gee asked for a big opening quarter and the team didn’t disappoint. Constant delivery to the forward line from the opening bounce by Byron’s midfield set the game up. The back six were left with little work to do on a cool Bangalow night, but when the play did come their way they rebounded the ball back to their scoring end. The second quarter was much the same as

the first with one-way traffic towards Byron’s goals. The Bull Sharks showed some fight in the third and fourth quarters and made the most of some of Byron’s mistakes. But the Magpies’ control of the game was never truly tested throughout the second half as the home team took their goal tally to eighteen. Beach Hotel best players included midfielders Dave Smith and Kane Bullock who racked up a big possession count, wingman Nick Patten, ruckman Luke Henchske, and the goal scoring duo in the forward line Brett Porter and Liam Afflick. The win keeps the team undefeated this year. They will travel to Burleigh Heads this weekend for their first test against a new team to the 2013 competition.

Shiners kick some Cossack butt Dean Trevaskis

The Mullumbimby Moonshiners only loss so far this season was at the hands of the Iluka Cossacks. Saturday at Brunswick Heads was the opportunity to square the ledger. The Shiners surged deep into Cossacks territory early. Todd Arthur sniffed an opening and directed play to the clubhouse corner. Fly half Nathan Nicholls burst from the back of the ruck and gave four Cossacks windburn to open the scoring. Super Boot then converted his own try. A penalty soon after had the lead out to 10 points and then the game went into slow motion. Intensity from both teams dropped off and the game had the energy of a radio with a flat battery. Veteran prop Matt Perry tried to spark things with a trademark bustling hit up. It was his last play of the day. A crunching tackle left him spread eagled and motionless with a dislocated hip. At last report on Saturday he was undergoing surgery at Tweed Hospital. Plenty of concerned team mates and supporters will be hoping Matt makes a full and swift recovery. In one of the more unusual scrums of the day, both Iluka and Mullum forward packs combined to drive the ambulance backwards from a bog beside the field. The forty minute delay galvanised the Shiners. Where the first half was indecisive, pedestrian and disjointed the second was precision, commitment and cohesion. Teale Pyne and Jarrad Hicks were two of many to rattle some Cossack cages with thumping tackles. They didn’t like it and isolated Iluka defenders could have been mistaken for playing hot potato. Mullum second rower Lucas Moffatt was getting higher than Joe Cock-

er in the line outs and Leon Matchett-Oates was leading the scrum from hooker. With the Shiners threatening the Iluka line, Jacko Lewin sharp at half back sent the ball wide through three sets of hands to winger Simon Hutton at full throttle for his third try of the season. Then in a set piece that was rugby eye candy, Todd Arthur sent a cut out pass to Dylan Fitzgerald to pop the ball into the imposing path of full back Keelan ‘Jumpin Jack Flash’ Jen-

Budget lacks focus on housing Australians: HIA The Federal Budget has largely ignored Australia’s residential building industry and the opportunity to implement further measures to increase housing supply, according to the Housing Industry Association (HIA). ‘Housing Australians should be a federal government priority. While the budget retains the existing NRAS program and includes a modest measure to assist seniors in downsizing their homes, housing has otherwise been ignored,’ said HIA’s chief economist Dr Harley Dale. ‘It is disappointing that there are no measures to address the excessive regulatory and taxation environment faced by Australia’s residential building industry. ‘Such reform and investment measures would generate a healthy economic dividend to the entire economy, including a substantial boost to government revenue.

‘The boost to infrastructure investment is welcome; however, the measures fail to address necessary infrastructure funding to support new residential development and boost new housing supply. ‘Extending the requirement to make monthly pay-as-you-go (PAYG) income tax instalments to include smaller entities, including trusts, superannuation funds, sole traders and large investors will add an immediate cost impost on business.

Top five mistakes first home buyers make With the recent cash rate cut, it is highly likely that first home buyers will be pushed to finally take the plunge and step onto the property ladder. But home loan applicants are being warned to avoid the most common mistakes made, which could ultimately result in costly penalties down the track. Jeremy Cabral, publisher of home loan comparison website Finder.com. au, says, ‘First home buyers need to think carefully about purchasing a property and watch out for common pitfalls. It’s an exciting time and it’s easy to get distracted by all the elements involved in applying for a home loan through to the purchase and move itself. But rushing into it all will inevitably result in additional costs and long term issues down the track. Mr Cabral says the following are the five most common mistakes first home buyers make:

at times at how much money their lender will allow them to borrow, it is worth thinking through the costs of the repayments and whether you can actually afford the maximum offered home loan limit. The maximum offered to you could sink you financially.

2. Getting emotionally attached to a property

Lenders require documentary proof of these types of details. If you bluff the first stage of a loan application, you’re only going to be rebuffed when the lender has to verify your details before approval. Lying on a home loan application is actually deemed as fraud.

5. Getting a fixed loan when you’ll shortly need access to credit Buying on emotion can be a very costly mistake. While it is perfectly reasonable to love a property, it is worth considering whether it is worth all the money you will be pouring into it.

3. Making an offer on a home without pre-approval If you make an offer on a home with no idea how much you can actually borrow, it is a major risk that can be costly. A pre-approval is a basic check of how much you can borrow, although this is just an indication.

1. Borrowing more than you can 4. Overstating incomes, handle understating expenses, overWhile homebuyers can be surprised valuing assets

If you need access to extra credit, such as for renovations, fixed loans are a complete hindrance. Financing a renovation using a home loan will often require breaking a fixed home loan, which can cost tens of thousands of dollars. ‘Research your options thoroughly, seek the right advice and make an informed decision when selecting a home loan and choosing your first property. It is one of the biggest decisions of your life so don’t pave the way for regrets by making foolish mistakes from the outset,’ concludes Mr Cabral.

New home owners struggle to meet the mortgage Despite low interest rates enticing homebuyers into the market, many new homeowners are struggling to pay the mortgage, a survey by Domain.com.au has found*. More than 90 per cent of new homeowners (who have owned a property for less than 12 months) have said their lifestyle has changed for the worse since they purchased a property. More than 37 per cent have stopped dining in restaurants, buying clothes and shoes (33 per cent) and going out with friends to pubs and bars (28 per cent). It’s not just their lifestyles that have changed; new homeowners are putting off paying utility and other basic bills in order to service their mortgage repayments: t 0WFS Ĺ&#x;ĹĄ QFS DFOU IBWF EFMBZFE QBZ ing utility bills. t 0WFS ŢĹž QFS DFOU IBWF EFMBZFE servicing their car. t .PSF UIBO IBMG ĹĄĹ? ĹĄ QFS DFOU IBWF delayed or cancelled health or house/contents insurance. ‘Interest rates are at incredible lows, yet new homeowners are feeling mortgage stress and are sacrificing some essential services,’ said Stuart Benson, Domain’s property spokesperson. ‘It’s reasonable to expect to tighten your belt when you purchase a property; however, homeowners should be able to pay the gas and electricity bills without worry. ‘It really pays to do your research before you buy property to ensure you can live within your financial means and be able to enjoy your new home.’ Tips for stress-free home ownership: t %SBÄ™ B CVEHFU BOE BEE JO FWFSZ thing you purchase over a month, even down to things like that daily coffee, so you have a realistic idea of what you can buy. t #F BXBSF PG UIF IJEEFO DPTUT PG purchase – factor in the ongoing cost of council rates, strata rates (if applicable), and utility bills such as water. t 4UFQ CBDL BOE UBLF B IFMJDPQUFS view – consider your future plans and your lifestyle needs and set your purchase price accordingly. 4VSWFZ PG Ĺ?

Backlash It happened very quietly but could prove to be a turning point for the future of the human race and Earth itself. Last week the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere passed 400 parts per million. The last time that happened was 3–5 million years ago during the Pliocene epoch. During this period the planet was 3–4 degrees warmer and sea levels 5–40m higher than today. The lobby group 350.org does not want this event to pass unnoticed, however, and has started a Fossil Free Divestment Movement at http://gofossilfree.org/.

It’s more than a bit of a worry when ambos – or more correctly these days, ‘paramedics’ – get attacked when performing their highly essential duties. Physical and verbal assaults on NSW paramedics, including an incident in Mullum, have trebled, with 50 assaults so far this year, up from 16 over the same period last year. All the popular interest in zombies may be because they are already among us, shit-faced or drugged up, or both. Anyone found to have committed an act of violence against a paramedic can face up to five years behind bars. Q Q Q Q
