Police want a freeze on northern rivers liquor licences

Jonson Street’s new food gardens

NSW police have sent their strongest message yet that the level of alcoholrelated assaults the force and community experience is unacceptable. Police Association of NSW president Scott Weber said in a statement, ‘It would be irresponsible to grant new licences in the [northern rivers] region until the results of the Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing’s research into the relationship between liquor licence density and alcohol-related harms are made public. ‘A freeze is already in place for new licences in areas of the Sydney CBD – that should be extended to the northern rivers and other areas.’ Currently there is an application for a Woolworths-owned Dan Murphy’s, which would be located underneath the Byron cinema. ‘Emergency service workers are sick and tired of getting used as punching bags by boozed-up thugs.

The lawns of the historic Norco building at the southern end of Jonson Street in Byron Bay have been transformed into a food-producing garden. Sunday’s open day was blessed with sunshine and quality food, chai and great live music as patrons learned about permaculture and witnessed some innovative food growing. Wild food expert Peter Hardwick also shared his knowledge with around 50 keen gardeners while families enjoyed the landscaped gardens and community art. A petition and signage against CCTV were also set up in the carpark, offering some resistance to the fait accompli of the Byron business chamber, Liquor Accord and police’s plans to install video coverage of the town. Proceeds from the day are earmarked towards a solar installation the Mullum Civic Hall. For more, visit www.byronmovement.com. Q See the video of this story at

Humpback quota approved after Australian support Sue Arnold & Hans Lovejoy

Australia has voted to allow 24 Humpback whales to be killed by a country that does not comply with International Whaling Commission (IWC) guidelines. The small island nation near the Caribbean, St Vincents and The Grenadines (SVG), has secured an extension of their whaling rights for the next six years but has a long history of infractions at the IWC. Despite the country’s domestic legislation, which does not prohibit killing females and calves (illegal under IWC rules), their whaling licence was approved last week at an IWC meeting in Panama under the Aboriginal Subsistence Whaling (ASW) policy.

The policy was designed to allow indigenous peoples to hunt otherwise protected whales for local use to satisfy their nutritional subsistence and cultural needs. According to www.bbc. co.uk, the vote overwhelmingly went in favour 48 to 10. But it’s been revealed that it contradicts the indigenous rules for whaling: mothers and their calves are chased by speedboats and are harpooned or brutally shot by a small number of whalers. As calves surface every four to five minutes, they are easy targets. After the calf is either captured or killed, the mother becomes an easy target as she won’t leave. These comments are supported by Louise Mitchell Joseph, chair of the SVG national trust and a barrister,

who added that there is an absence of adequate measures for the collecting and reporting of data in relation to whaling activities in the country. But perhaps most damning is the claims there is no aboriginal whaling history. ‘Never in the history of archaeology in St Vincent and the Grenadines, have there been any findings to suggest that the Kalinago or Garifuna peoples killed whales, interacted with whales, or ate whale meat,’ says Ms Joseph.

Minister response The Echo asked environment minister Tony Burke, who led the Australian delegation, why he voted for St Vincents and The Grenadines quota, despite the country not complying with IWC-AWS regulations.

‘Australia has always viewed aboriginal subsistence whaling as being different from commercial whaling,’ Mr Burke said. ‘The vote on St Vincents and The Grenadines was taken as a single vote, which also included the aboriginal subsistence whaling decisions for remote communities in the US and Russia. ‘Faced with a situation where we agreed that what was being sought for remote communities in Russia and Alaska was appropriate but what was being sought in St Vincents was not appropriate, Australia took the decision to object to the St Vincents proposal when our commissioner spoke, but for the commissioner to vote for the package of three proposals. ‘Fortunately the other claim for ab-

original subsistence whaling, which Australia objected to, was from Greenland and it was taken as a vote on its own. Australia spoke against and voted against that proposal. Had the St Vincents proposal been voted on its own instead of being packaged up, Australia would have voted against it. This was made clear in the speeches on the floor.’

Whaling now ‘bundled’ The ‘packages’ Mr Burke refers to is the precedent set by the US, which ‘bundles’ aboriginal subsistence whaling to allow different species to be hunted. This not only weakens the IWC, but makes a mockery of socalled aboriginal whaling. continued on page 2

The New iPads Have Arrived!

A German energy expert believes Byron Shire is wasting tens of thousands of dollars by burning off gas generated by rotting rubbish at the Myocum landfill facility rather than harnessing it for power generation. Dr Bertram Ehmann also believes the north coast sugar mills, which have been modified to also co-generate electricity, are too inflexible and could produce a lot more power if properly geared to do so. Sewage treatment plants (STPs) also should be set up to capture and store gas which could run turbines for power production. Dr Ehmann was a guest recently of local sustainability champion, Dieter Horstmann, at his Eagle Farm in Tyagarah, also known as Byron Ecopark, before flying back to Germany at the weekend. The energy consultant spent three years in Australia, mostly heading global energy company Siemens’ activities in the Pacific region, as well as a stint for a year as professor of sustainable energy at the University of Queensland. ‘We need to think laterally about this; big power stations are still needed today but they are

quickly becoming a thing of the past, the future is in the decentralisation of power generation using locally available primaryenergy sources (wind, solar, water, biomass etc),’ he said. ‘But there’s also other energy sources available locally which are not normally harnessed such as biomass, biochar and biogas, which we should use.’ During his recent visit, Dr Ehmann and Mr Horstmann went on inspection and study tours of the Myocum landfill

The IWC now has to deal with cultural, traditional and other definitions imposed by the US. Many NGOs and antiwhaling member countries are concerned that some so-called aboriginal subsistence quotas are increasingly being used as a cover for commercial whaling. Greenland is a good example of this perversion with more than 70 per cent of its ‘subsistence’ kill being served up in tourist restaurants.

NGO comment Mick McIntyre from nongovernment organisation (NGO) Whales Alive just returned from the Panama meet-

ing and told The Echo that the ‘sham’ of aboriginal whaling was just one of many issues voted on and discussed. ‘The big surprise was of course South Korea’s announcement on whaling,’ he said. Despite abandoning the idea last Friday, Mr McIntyre says he remains very sceptical of the South Korean backflip. ‘They have shown their hand and yes they may be making backflip noises now – but in our opinion they will continue to test the waters.’ Also the proposal to create a South Atlantic whale sanctuary was defeated, with many of Australia’s Pacific neigh-

bours voting against. Mr McIntyre was particularly critical of Japanese whaling. ‘It is in the Japanese interest that whaling continues, and is important to the Japanese that it continues in the St Vincent and The Grenadines. ‘These small island nations are often given financial favours by the Japanese; expenses are paid for for them to attend the meetings, for example.’ He adds that Japan refuses to take Humpbacks off its ‘socalled scientific whaling program in the southern ocean.’ With regards to the ‘bundle’, Mr McIntyre says that ‘It was obvious to everyone that it was going to a vote because

the Latin countries were not happy with St Vincents being on the bundle. ‘All a country had to do – including possibly Australia – was put forward an amendment to the bundle proposal which would take St Vincent off the bundle. ‘Then there would effectively be two proposals: USA, Russia and St Vincent. ‘Australia could have easily voted for the first and happily abstained or voted no to the second.

Byron Shire Council last year installed a new gas collection and flaring system at the landfill facility after neighbours complained about the smell. Dr Ehmann added, ‘In Germany, there are more jobs in green power than big power stations.’ But he says ‘integration of the power system is a key part’. ‘To get power from a wind farm is easy, but it’s much hard-

alcohol-related assaults – it’s time the NSW government stepped in and introduced the measures across the board. ‘The minister has announced an inquiry into outlet density and there should be a moratorium on new licences until this is complete – especially in areas which already have a high density of liquor outlets,’ Mr Weber said.

‘It doesn’t make sense to introduce more liquor licences now when there’s the potential that the research will show that we’re putting the community at risk by granting more and more liquor licences in the area. ‘The community cost of alcohol-related violence is huge, and the strain it puts on our emergency services is huge. ‘We should be doing everything it takes to reduce the

problem, not adding to it.’ Mr Weber said the Last Drinks coalition, representing NSW emergency-service workers including doctors, police, nurses and paramedics is also calling for restrictions to be put on licensed venues in Wollongong, similar to those already in place in Newcastle, which have resulted in an over 35 per cent decrease in assaults after dark. Some fantastic work

has been done in Newcastle to reduce the number of alcoholrelated assaults by introducing a suite of simple measures, such as reduced trading hours, limits on high-alcohol-content drinks and lock-outs, in licensed venues in the area. ‘We need to see those measures rolled out across NSW. ‘We need to start putting community safety ahead of company profit margins.’

Shai isn’t backing down over Council’s hostel allegations Hans Lovejoy

The man accused of operating an illegal hostel in Byron Bay has blasted Byron Shire Council’s (BSC) legal team, claiming documents that will be used against him were tendered to him at the ‘last minute’. Shai Major’s Jonson Street share-house, where BSC alleges a number of schoolies were illegally accommodated in substandard conditions last year, dissolved shortly after the charges were laid earlier this year. The property now operates as a car-hire business. However Council’s govern-

ance manager, Ralph James, told The Echo Mr Major was given the documents in due time. ‘The brief was provided to Mr Major more than three months ago, in time for this week’s hearing.’ ‘Council believes it is important to take action against alleged illegal development.,’ Mr James added. Mr Major was originally charged with operating a ‘backpackers’ but this was later changed to ‘hostel’ at Council’s request. In an email exchange obtained by The Echo, Council’s chief prosecutor Ralph James requested to see Mr Major’s letters from former housemates at least

14 days before the court hearing. ‘Council is concerned that the matter be fully prepared and be capable of proceeding to finality on the hearing date,’ he wrote. In response, Mr Major said in part, ‘I would have [also] preferred to be given the material you gave to court at least 14 days prior to the hearing, and not have to suffer your dirty trick of throwing two kilos of paperwork on an unprofessional, unrepresented, uneducated and unemployed person [for] whom English is not his original speech, three days before the hearing.’ The letters of support from his former housemates have

been sighted by The Echo. Mr Major says he is representing himself as he can’t afford a lawyer. He also says that external legal consultants engaged by BSC put him up against at least three lawyers.

Memorial award honours Louise Susie Phe

The tragic death of one of Byron’s bright young scholars in 2011 has not been forgotten. Louise Odette Brown died in an apartment fire in Paris just over a year ago. She grew up in Surfolk Park and, after completing her HSC at Lismore’s Trinity Catholic College, Louise became a Law student at the University of New South Wales (UNSW). She was an exemplary student who had a passion for social justice and human rights. The Louise Brown Memorial Award was set up by UNSW Law School to carry on Louise’s passion by enabling other students to take part in international internships with organisations which actively promote and protect human rights.

Shame sign plan for Tweed dune vandals Luis Feliu

The erection of ‘shame’ signs was discussed at the last Tweed Shire Council meeting after native banksia trees planted by Kingscliff DuneCare volunteers were vandalised. Councillors were divided on the appropriate response on residents, who either cut or poisoned two-year-old dune vegetation to try to improve their www.echo.net.au

sea views along Kingscliff ’s upmarket Marine Parade. But it was resolved to write to property owners in Marine Parade asking for information on the recent clearing and advising that any further vandalism may result in council erecting large signage and screens in the location. Tweed Council will also build a dune fence along the foreshore where the vandalism

occurred to discourage access into coastal bushland, with advisory signs to encourage reporting of vandalism. Tweed Council will also help replant the affected foreshore area by Kingscliff DuneCare Group. In 2000, a large regulatory sign was erected along the foreshore at Kingscliff following vandalism but was later removed after successful regrowth of the vegetation.

RED HOT JULY CLEARANCE MATTRESSES PILLOWS SHEETS QUILTS STORAGE

Health officials continue to hose down service degradation Luis Feliu

An incident earlier earlier this month in which a 44-yearold Myocum man was hospitalised in Brisbane with a life-threatening illness has prompted health authorities to reassure locals that Mullumbimby Hospital will still be able to provide professional emergency care. Early in the morning of Sunday, July 1, the man had returned home to lie down rather than wait to be seen by the rostered Mullumbimby overnight doctor, who was unavailable until later that morning. However, the man’s condition sharply deteriorated and the next day his family found him at home, confused and delirious, and called an ambulance. According to an APN Media report, the ambulance paramedics took him back to Mullumbimby Hospital where he was treated with fluids and antibiotics before he was trans-

ferred to Tweed Hospital’s intensive care unit. There, the man was found to have a life-threatening infection affecting all major organs including his heart. The following day, around midday on Tuesday, July 3, he was transported to Brisbane’s Princess Alexandra Hospital, where it was confirmed an infection that started in his heart had caused an abscess in his brain and damaged one of his heart valves. Acting chief executive of the Northern NSW Local Health District (NNSW LHD) Annette Symes told The Echo that anyone attending Mullumbimby Hospital ‘will be seen and assessed by a trained emergency health professional upon arrival.’ ‘When patients attend Mullumbimby Hospital for treatment at night, hospital medical and nursing rosters ensure that patients are able to access the clinical care they need,’ Ms

BDS conference for Bay The inaugural Byron Bay BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions) Conference, ‘Why Palestine Matters’, at the Ewingsdale Hall is timed to coincide with the anniversary of the formal adoption of the Geneva conventions on Sunday August 12. According to Byron Friends of Palestine, ‘This conference is a not-for-profit event aimed at promoting awareness of the moral justification for Palestinian civil society’s call for boycott, divestment and sanctions against Israel due to her gov- Photo by George Salhani ernment’s continued breach of international law, covenants and UN resolutions’. Samah Sabawi, pictured right, is the guest speaker on the subject of international law and the quest for equality and justice in Palestine.

Symes said. The incident has thrown the spotlight on the proposed controversial restructure of the hospital’s emergency department whereby the overnight rostered doctor will be replaced by a tele-conferencing system operated by a nurse with a video link to a doctor at Tweed Hospital.

Video-link would be a downgrade: nurses Hundreds of locals have attended two public protest meetings recently over the contentious new system, which local nurses and doctors say will lead to the demise of the hospital. Nurses fear the video-link replacement of the overnight doctor amounts to a downgrade of medical services at the hospital by stealth. LHD chief executive Chris Crawford will address the third public meeting on the issue at Mullumbimby High School

hall on August 2 at 7pm. Mr Crawford will be available to answer questions at the meeting, organised by the Save Mullum Hospital steering committee. Meanwhile, The Echo has been told the new $80,000 teleconferencing equipment for the system, set to be in use by late October, arrived at the hospital two weeks ago but is unable to be used at this stage owing to ‘a software issue’. A nurses-union spokesperson said, ‘this is a good example of what could happen with this new system when there’s no overnight doctor there.’

Beef Week bans protests These boots are made for an exhibition Casino Beef Week organiser Stuart George has banned political protests after an ‘avalanche’ of complaints against protests at this year’s rally, which included an anti-CSG float and one opposing cuts to local hospitals and health services. ‘People were all saying the same thing: they didn’t want protests in the parade; they

wanted it kept as it had been previously, a celebration of community,’ Mr George told media last week. He said some people told him their children were ‘scared’ by the protests and added as many were opposed to the hospital float as the anti-CSG one. Mr George is also a Richmond Valley councillor and is employed by CSG miner Metgasco.

Illegal dumping soars in Byron Shire Illegal dumping of hard rubbish appears to be on the rise in Byron Shire, with the council insisting its recent decision to end kerbside pick-ups of bulky goods is not to blame. After the most recent incident, when a large amount of rubbish was found on Rajah Road, Ocean Shores over the weekend, Byron Shire Council has turned to the community for help to stamp out the problem.

Executive manager of water and recycling, Phil Warner, said, ‘if Byron Shire residents see someone illegally dumping, they should contact Council so that it can conduct an investigation into the incident’. Mr Warner said he believed the previous kerbside pick-up system actually encouraged illegal dumping but it was less obvious. ‘There was a large amount of illegal dumping taking place under the guise of the kerbside pick-up system, both before and after the official collection period started. Aside from causing environmental damage, the large amount of illegal dumping was distressing for some residents who had goods dumped near their homes. It was also having a negative impact on community amenity, and posed a safety risk, particularly to young children that might be tempted to explore

any dumped goods. ‘The previous system was also limited, as it only applied to residents in urban areas, not those living in rural parts of the Shire. It was preferable that a new system could be implemented that would allow more residents to access the service.’ Mr Warner said that anyone thinking about illegally dumping material could avoid a potential fine or prosecution by taking advantage of Council’s free, bulky-goods drop-off system, which commenced on 1 July. On-the-spot fines range from $200 for littering by an individual to the more serious offence of dumping waste, which carries a fine of $750 for an individual and $1,500 for a corporation. Prosecutions for waste dumping have also occurred in the Byron Shire. In 2010 BSC prosecuted a Shire resident

who dumped waste, resulting in a $20,000 fine. ‘Since the start of this month, residents can now deposit up to 150 kilograms of bulky goods without charge at the Myocum facility, simply by taking along their rate bill, or a voucher that is based on a residential tenancy agreement if they are a resident not paying rates,’ he said. Mr Warner added that Council believed the new system provided ‘a more appropriate way for the Byron Shire community to deal with unwanted goods’. ‘On one occasion only per year, residents can drop off up to 150 kilograms of bulky waste at Myocum landfill at no charge. Details of the rate notice or voucher will be registered into a database. Any material exceeding 150 kilograms will be charged at the appropriate fee.’

Neighbours of musician Tim Freedman have failed in their application to the Land & Environment Court to stop the use of the property as a place of assembly. Council originally granted consent but this decision was challenged by residents from surrounding properties. In a hearing that lasted two days from June 12, the property which is zoned T2 can have up

to 14 functions annually, with a maximum 70 guests per function. There are fairly stringent conditions on events and there is too be no live amplified music or DJs and all functions must cease at by 9pm. It is reported that Freedman paid $2.8 million for the property called Barefoot at Broken Head in 2009. The 1.1 hectare holding is in the Pavilions Estate at Broken Head.

Reports from the Lizard’s Revenge uranium protest/festival in Roxby Downs in South Australia has so far been orderly and well planned; however, as a protester you had better be not too worried about any privacy issues. The festival/protest was called after plans were announced to increase production at BHP’s Olympic Dam and in the aftermath of the Fukushima disaster which is still unfolding a year later. Bay FM president Ros Elliott is part of the 15 or so local contingent and she told The Echo that roadblocks with drug and alcohol testing and searches were set up in Port Augusta, well before anyone rolled into Roxby Downs. ‘Anyone with dreads and any cars that looked slightly unroadworthy were given a lot of attention,’ she says. But more than that, Ms Elliott claims the camp originally planned for the protesters has been moved by police to another spot. ‘It’s still another parcel of

Crown land but it gives them more powers,’ she says. ‘We now need permission to enter our own camps! Everyone’s name is taken down and you need to give a reason for entering.’ She says it’s very intimidating and feels like a detention camp. ‘Inside Roxby, police were taking videos and photos of everyone. We’re under constant surveillance. Despite that, everyone is well behaved and peaceful. There’s around four hundred of us, with a lot of young kids and families included. She says on the first day, all the police had earplugs. ‘I have heard about tactics in the US where police use sonic waves to knock out protesters, so we weren’t sure what this was.’ She says fewer police wore them the second day.

Constant surveillance Filmmaker and Shire resident David Bradbury agrees the police presence is disproportionate. But despite that, he says protesters ‘are mostly generation Y; smart young people with degrees in science, arts/ law, communications, ecology,

Labor’s right snarls at the Greens Volume 27 #06

July 17, 2012

Local election ponderings The Echo very much looks forward to a new Byron Shire general manager being appointed and some fresh councillor faces after the September 8 elections. So far the debate has been mainly rhetorical, but now is the time to talk about how this community can pull together and work more collaboratively. Sounds like a joke, right? But nobody can deny it’s desperately needed. There are so many conflicting egos and ideals in this region that whoever lands the vacant spots of general manager and mayor will be under immense pressure to produce at least some level of unity. Previously both ended up in a tit-for-tat squabble where the only winners were lawyers. Here are a few issues to ponder over until ballot day: Address and review unexecuted Council motions. Councillors’ many requests to staff has led to a cyber graveyard of well-intentioned but forgotten motions. There is no doubt that tourism is the dominant economy, but what of other sectors that, with the right nurturing, could provide the resilience that this community continually espouses? Food production, manufacturing, creative arts and IT come to mind. Addressing affordable housing could perhaps be achieved by investigating working models in neighbouring shires. Byron Bay has needed a bypass for over 20 years, and as the Ocean Shores population is almost as large, it too could do with basic infrastructure. An equitable festival policy is needed as well; it’s not just two major events we have in this Shire, it’s two major event companies who want to ramp up their event sites that we have to deal with. Other big elephants in the room are holiday letting and the social problems caused by a binge-drinking culture. And let’s not forget potholes and grubby public toilets. One last thing: a great start to freshening up Council would be to rename our infrastructure. Poor language usage divides and confuses. Until something vaguely cultural is held there, the Byron Regional Sports and Cultural Complex should be just called the Ewingsdale Sports Facility. National and global media continually analyse this community whether we like it or not. Those outside our bubble often mock our differences and ridicule the commitment we have to the environment and social issues. Let’s be a smart unified council so we can tell them – and the NSW government – to go fuck themselves when needed. Hans Lovejoy, editor

T

he ALP appears to have coined a new slogan: ‘The enemy of my enemy is also my enemy.’ Or alternatively: ‘My chosen partner is my greatest hate.’ The stream of invective directed at the hapless Greens has been more vicious than any since, well, since much the same people were abusing and maligning Kevin Rudd for the high crime of attempting to implement the wishes of the majority of voters, and particularly of Labor supporters, and take back the position that Julia Gillard snatched from him in the mugging of 2010. The Greens are loopy, dangerous extremists like One Nation – maybe worse, Labor should consider putting them below One Nation on how-to-vote cards. To which the Greens reply that Labor is a party without ethics, capable only of throwing buckets of dirt. It is an extraordinary, almost fratricidal, confrontation; after all the ALP and the Greens are supposed to be together on the progressive side of Australian politics, allies of the Left in the same way as Christians, Jews and Muslims are all people of the book, worshippers of the same god. And perhaps the analogy is apt, because adherents of all three religions have been known to treat their fellow monotheists with more fear and loathing than they ever inflict on those they regard as pagans. And as any policeman knows, family brawls are often the most bitter. But the current blue, while perhaps simmering for quite some time, came to a head suddenly and unexpectedly; the general belief that while the minority government in Canberra endured, tensions could be contained. After all, Labor needs the Greens in the senate to deliver any policies at all and in the lower house simply to survive and

the Greens need Labor in power to keep their own ideas on the table and occasionally put them into practice. So when everything blew up last week, many commentators suspected a hidden agenda. The most common conspiracy theory was that Labor’s right-wing faction leaders, and particularly the New South Wales branch, were sending a signal that they were turning against Julia Gillard; the partnership with the

to deny the Greens preferences. Well, maybe, but it at least worth examining his thesis in more detail before arriving at any conclusion. It is true that the real slump in Labor’s primary vote has occurred since the 2010 election and the inauguration of the partnership with the Greens, but while the period has proved disastrous for Labor, it hasn’t done the Greens much good. In the Weekend Australian, Tim

If the Greens are cannibalising the Labor vote, then they are very inefficient anthropophagites. by Mungo MacCallum Greens had been her idea, and it was over, and so was she. There was less unanimity about who, if anyone, was being touted as her replacement; Kevin Rudd and Bill Shorten both had their advocates, but for different reasons neither seems all that likely. Rudd won’t come unless asked by the whole caucus, and his enemies remain unforgiving, and Shorten is understandably unwilling to accept a crown of thorns from a party on the brink of catastrophic defeat. Another suggestion was that it wasn’t so much the Greens who were under attack, but their baby, the carbon tax; if Labor could somehow get rid of both the sun would shine again. But even in an electorate as inured to cynicism as Australia’s, that pig just won’t fly. It is more probable that the party’s general secretary, Sam Dastyari, was simply telling it as he saw it: Labor’s perceived attachment to the Greens was dragging its vote down, and the simplest way to cut the cord was

in the NSW state conference: they had spent five days squabbling about preferences when they should have been talking about principles. And even if breaking with the Greens brought some voters back, there would be a price to be paid, and it would be paid in the senate. In the next election six senators from each state and two from each territory will face the voters. The territories will break, as always, one each for Labor and the coalition. But even if Labor recovers a bit – even quite a lot – it seems inevitable that the coalition will win three seats to Labor’s two in every state, bringing the state of the major parties to coalition 36, Labor 27, Greens six and the DLP’s John Madigan in Victoria. The last six seats are therefore vital. I would expect the independent Nick Xenophon to hold on in South Australia, and the Greens should be strong enough in Tasmania. But that still leaves four swinging. If the coalition wins three, it controls the senate in its own right. If it wins two, it probably has effective control with the help of Madigan. If it wins just one it still has the numbers to block anything it likes. Thus for the current situation to prevail – for Labor and the Greens to be able to reject government legislation (of course, we are assuming a coalition majority in the House of Representatives) they need to win the lot between them. Even without wildcard independents this will be hard. If they don’t work together, it will be impossible. Tony Abbott will have untrammelled control – absolute power. Please, Sam Dastyari and your mates – is this what you really want?

Watts crunched the numbers to find that in total, taking in the state elections in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria and the ongoing federal scene, Labor’s primary has dropped by over 11 per cent, but the Greens have picked up less that half of one per cent. If they are, as the right claims, cannibalising the Labor vote, they are very inefficient anthropophagites. Almost all the rest has gone to the coalition; these are the votes that have to be retrieved. Would cutting off the Greens help? It might; there are certainly bluecollar voters who have been conditioned by the shock jocks and the tabloids to regard the Greens as spawn of Satan, and anyone who sups with them as irrevocably damned. But there are a lot more who are simply fed up with Gillard and her colleagues for their endless dithering, lack of clear purpose and inability to communicate anything be- Q See Mungo live at yond cliché.

Eat spray, love I agree with Byron Council’s decision to use herbicides to control bitou bush and other weeds. If chemically adverse residents were truly concerned about suspected (not proven) side effects they would be happy to manually remove weeds near their properties and other areas within the Shire. If all Byron residents cleared one square kilometre there would be no need to use herbicides. For Council it’s an economic reality to spray herbicides. Keep up the good work, Byron Council. Ian Wiggins

Ballina I was deeply saddened by Virginia Black’s letter of spraying danger and on her husband’s death. I live next to the Ocean Shores golf course which is sprayed every other day ten metres from my home. We all suffer from chronic fatigue and other chronic health conditions – some doctors and naturopaths have suggested a causal link with chemical sprays. There is no signage or warning when spraying and often the spraying occurs on windy days. Are there any doctors out there with information that may assist us in understanding a causal link? Any evidencebased research? As a community we need to get quality information out there. My family has suffered enough.

New spirit needed Byron Bay is looking quite tacky these days. Shops are empty and there’s a general atmosphere of depression in a place that has fallen on hard times. The fallout of the Global Financial Crisis? I don’t think so. Anyone who has wondered why Byron is in the dumps should think back and remember the campaign against tourists which has been running here for at least the past ten years. There were big spreads in the newspapers in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne, reports in TV news bulletins and on the radio. I’m sure everyone knows which Shire-wide organisation

was running this vendetta against the outside world. The result was wholly predictable: the Australian family holiday maker got the message and went elsewhere. You don’t see them in the streets of Byron or on Main Beach any more. They’re at Noosa, the Gold Coast, Yamba or Coffs Harbour – places where they feel welcome. People who don’t read newspapers, watch TV news or listen to radio news grabs continued to stream into Byron. This distortion in the local tourist market turned Byron into a backpacker resort. Cheap shops and fast food outlets proliferated. Street crime

increased considerably. Businesses that used to cater for grown-ups left town. You have to go to Ballina or Lismore to buy clothing for adults. The dry-cleaners went, as did the smart hair salon under the cinema. The overall result is a lack of vitality in the heart of the Shire, a lack of opportunity for young people and a growing sense of unease at the loss of energy in a town that used to sparkle with life. There is an urgent need for a new spirit in Byron. The time for a change in direction is well overdue.

Rocks in their heads To the pack of charming young teenagers roaming the streets of Suffolk Park around the lake on the afternoon of Thursday July 12. There were four or five of you and I watched as you found your enjoyment for the afternoon by hiding in the bushes near the roundabout like mongrel dogs and throwing large rocks at the cars negotiating the roundabout. While I watched, you hit about three or four cars which would have caused quite some damage and distress to the drivers involved. Then you all laughed and cheered each other when you made a hit on a car. And when I yelled at you

to stop you turned on me and started with the rude gestures and swearing and the bravado and then ran away like scared little girls. Charming. These are the types of children we have residing in this neighbourhood – what a disgrace. Know this, I saw you, I know your faces and I will find out where you all live and I will report you all to the police when I do that. You might think it’s fun to cause other people distress; well, we will see how you handle the distress of being reported to the police and your parents, some of whom I suspect will, as usual, adopt the mantra, ‘Oh my son wouldn’t do something like that.’ It’s about time some of the parents of Suffolk Park woke up to themselves and started having a bit more control over their maliciously vagrant children during school holidays and of a night. I, for one, am very, very sick of it.

Save the Masonic Hall The beautiful Bangalow Masonic Hall in Station Street goes to auction on July 28. Surprisingly the hall that has stood and serviced the Bangalow community since 1922 has never been heritage-listed, leaving it at risk of being demolished. Yet another muchloved community and historical icon lost to development. I have seen so many changes in the shire since taking residence here 14 years ago, and

there are so few culturally significant buildings left now. So the hall goes down along with a century of memories with a new proposed retail complex to appear in its place. How will a development of that scale in a tiny dead-end street affect the Bangalow community? What will happen to the billycart derby if roadworks are needed to accommodate a retail centre of considerable size? It looks to me like those billycarts are

moving much too fast to take on a roundabout. We have just experienced the Federal village community’s commendable and inspirational fight to save their community hall; perhaps the residents of Bangalow feel just as passionate about their community history and culture. What do you think about the situation?

tion, but much more is needed. Since it was Gillard and Swan who forced Kevin Rudd to drop the carbon pollution reduction scheme (and the Greens who forced them into the carbon tax) and a significant part of the ALP are likely to be climate change skeptics or deniers (can’t risk the coal exports, can we, Martin?), I doubt that we will hear much John Whitehall about the role of the carbon tax Suffolk Park in saving the planet.

subject to be aired. Few people are aware of the United Nations’ insidious Agenda 21 and its local government arm ICLEI (International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives). ICLEI is Agenda 21 by stealth. At the Earth/Environment Summit in 1992, Ros Kelly (then ALP Minister for the Environment) signed Australia to the UN Agenda 21 without the knowledge or permission of the Australian public despite the fact that according to our Australian Constitution Act: ‘Part IV – Both Houses of the Parliament 44. Any person who – (i.) Is under any acknowledgement of allegiance, obedience, or adherence to a foreign power, or is a subject or a citizen or entitled to the rights or privileges of a subject or citizen of a foreign power: … shall be incapable of being chosen or of sitting as a senator or a member of the House of Representatives.’ An act of treason? Probably. Most councils in Australia are now members of ICLEI, including Byron Shire Council. The largest membership is in the USA. At present many counties and cities there are withdrawing from Agenda 21 and ICLEI. The entire state of Alabama has withdrawn, Kansas and Tennessee are in the process and more will follow. See www.thenewamerican.com/ rio-20/item/11592-alabamaadopts-first-official-state-banon-un-agenda-21. Australian councils are still asleep at the wheel. So far only Gosford Shire residents have awoken and are in the process of petitioning their council to withdraw their ICLEI membership. See www.gopetition.com/ petitions/remove-gosford-

city-council-s-membershipin-iclei.html. See also: Resolution Exposing United Nations Agenda 21 www.freerepublic.com/ focus/f-bloggers/2834170/ posts Don’t believe me, wake up and do your homework. Yours and your children’s future depends on it.

CO2 on the rise There are a number of ways the Gillard government could promote the carbon tax (Mungo, last week), but making a serious contribution to saving the planet is not likely to be one of them. The reason lies in the government’s own figures – under the carbon tax, Australia’s emissions are predicted to have increased by 13 per cent from 1990 levels by 2020. While this is better than the 23 per cent increase expected without the carbon tax, it is a long way from the 25 per cent to 40 per cent reduction that science is saying is needed. By 2050, the government expects our emissions to be down by one per cent from 1990 levels. Again, this is better than the 83 per cent increase expected without the carbon tax, but it is a long way from the 80 per cent to 90 per cent cuts we should be aiming for to meet our share of reducing global emissions enough to hopefully limit temperature rises to 2°, generally considered the threshold of dangerous warming. The government is quite right in saying we will hardly notice the impact of the carbon tax, but unfortunately the atmosphere will hardly notice it either. A step in the right direc-

Hall fees The other day I phoned Ewings dale hall to enquire about the price of an all-day/night hire. I was asked if this was for a party or a wedding. I replied what is the difference? The response shocked me. ‘Well, we charge more for weddings as everything costs more for weddings.’ So to hold a wedding at Ewingsdale hall is $750 while to have a party is only $350. Does that seem right? I’m outraged. So because a wedding is already expensive it’s fair to charge more, for no added value. There was no bottle of champagne in the wedding hire. There was no free band attached. Isn’t a wedding a party anyway? That’s the idea, to celebrate your love for another person and have your family and friends there to celebrate and party too. I’m sorry, Ewingsdale hall, but you have lost my vote. Jess Brown

Bicyles are vital Calls for fewer cycleways? More cars? Whoa! Our world may not be ideal but it is rapidly changing. As fossil fuel becomes too expensive for day-to-day transport, bicycles are a vital part of that change. I find my new electric bike is even better than I imagined. Now I can easily get up steep hills and so make full use of Byron Bay’s small lanes and byways. This means I can avoid using the main cycleway along Bangalow Road. Here cyclists and pedestrians are overcrowded into inadequate footpaths while cars and trucks monopolise the roadway. But out to the industrial estate and to my friends in Ewingsdale I rely on the cycle path and the new connection over the bridge. I am also delighted with the avenues to Suffolk Park. More places to lock up bikes are important. A bonus would be battery recharge stations. Free loans of bikes, trikes and even trailers for town use. I dream of roads for bike use only – recently I and others have been hit by cars. A smart fear of traffic plus the new electric ability now guides my route selection. So do the standard ‘rules of the road’. I give all traffic this respect and I expect as much too.

On a bike, you are a small part of the big changing future. Sure you make adjustments but I’ll admit to you the secret bonuses – the new views, the savings, the gentler pace, the flexibility. It’s fun. Well done to the council for enabling safer cycling! As these improve further, more people will be able to try an ‘energy descent lifestyle’. It’s not all bad. Mary Gardner

Parking blues Since the change in parking in the Bay I for one have found it much more difficult to park in town. The quick trip to the bank isn’t so quick any more and I find it easier to do it elsewhere in my travels. I was told by the chamber of commerce that around 60 spaces were removed. I look for a car space close to where I need to go and if I can’t find one I will circle around again, then widen my circling wider and wider until I find a spot. So, I would guess many others do the same thing which then gives a pretty clear idea why the town is in gridlock so often. A short term solution (assuming the parking front-to -kerb continues) could be to halve the allowed time at all parking spots. Take the one hour down to half and so on. And have unrestricted time or four-hour time at a greater radius. If I go to town to have a meal I may be there one to two hours. A short walk isn’t going to hurt me, but to come into town for a quick transaction and have to walk a distance – that sucks. David Levine

No front line Many people believe the war in Afghanistan is a legitimate defence against foreign extremists who attacked the Pentagon on 9/11. It’s not exactly clear who we’re killing over there, but if you believe politicians and the corporate media, it’s terrorists and insurgents and unlawful combatants, in other words, people who look like civilians, not soldiers. But the target population of the terror war is not just abroad, it’s also here, in Australia, and around the western world, from the US to the UK, from New Zealand to the Netherlands. We are the target of the interminable war on terror. The citizens of the West are under attack from the parasitic, war profiteering plutocracy. And it’s no secret. A study entitled ‘The Changing Face of War: Into the Fourth Generation’, published in the Marine Corps Gazette, October 1989, and available online, claimed that future warfare will be ‘widely dispersed and largely www.echo.net.au

undefined. The difference between war and peace will be blurred to the vanishing point. There will be no definable battle fields or fronts. The distinction between civilian and military may disappear.’ Furthermore, ‘Psychological operations may become the dominant weapon in the form of media/information intervention. Practitioners will be adept at manipulating the media to alter domestic and world opinion. A major target will be the population’s support of the war. Television news may become a more powerful weapon than armoured divisions.’ And this is where we’re at, folks, bombarded daily with the psychological toxins of pro-war, pro-torture propaganda and police-state brutality, conditioned to believe we’re at war abroad, when in fact we’re attacked from within. Thus the most potent and empowering form of resistance these days involves ignoring newspapers and leaving the radio and TV turned off. John Scrivener

Less than splendid The article and photo re directors of Splendour in the Grass (aka Nightmare for Koalas) and their ‘influence’ left me puzzled. I must have missed the bit about the 15 metre high sound proof wall around the site or the level of financial contributions to road maintenance, water and services. Koala status has recently been further upgraded to critically endangered and widespread community concerns have been ignored and don’t get me started about the social impact of these shows. The crowd numbers we can anticipate; if the reality is even half the estimate, it is insane. If whingeing Byron businesses need to have Splendour it should be where it will have the least environmental impact, probably at the original site Belongil Fields and not at the expense of helpless animals.

To live in peace What ‘Israel and Palestine taboo’ (Echo, July 3)? Israel’s actions are discussed many times from all possible angles. Here’s a taboo: President Assad killed in the past year more of his people than all the Palestinians that were killed in the Israel-Palestine conflict since it began. Combined. No word from certain activists. ‘Repeat a lie enough times and it will be believed.’ Is Israel an apartheid state? No. Please see this six-minute video:

http://bit.ly/ntYtQB. ‘Israel wants more land’? Is that why Israel withdrew from most of the occupied territories without a peace treaty? When my mother was asked overseas: ‘Why don’t you guys end this conflict?’ she answered: ‘Look, people think different things about Jews, but there is, however, a consensus that Jews are smart. And if we can’t solve this problem for so long, it must be a difficult problem to solve.’ This was 20 years ago and is still true today. Why don’t Israeli expats in the Shire deal more with this conflict? I can’t speak on behalf of others but Israelis live with this conflict from birth. I didn’t come here to continue the fight. I came here to live in peace.

A government land grab

The NSW Department of Lands (DOL) has gazetted a compulsory acquisition order (May 15) in their latest attempt to seize control of encroached road reserve lands for inclusion within the crown reserve caravan parks in Brunswick Heads. For over a decade the local community has highlighted the adverse impacts these encroachments have on resident’s amenity, public safety and the fragile foreshore environment. Traffic and car parking issues, noise impacts, inadequate setbacks and buffer zones, compliance and OH&S issues are continuously disreEitan Timor garded by park management. Mullumbimby Legal advice from the En-

vironmental Defenders Office clearly states that existing compliance problems will not be remediated by the acquisition of encroached lands. The privatisation and loss of highly valued public recreational space along the river foreshore should alarm everyone. DOL’s management plans include erecting fencing to restrict public access in Terrace Park – the only area in Brunswick Heads where foreshore access is obstructed. Already trees and lower branches have been removed from protected coastal cypress pines to allow intensified use of these encroached lands, changing the use from ‘primitive camping’ without

Council’s knowledge or consent – activities that I believe are clearly outside the current licence conditions. A new cabin precinct is proposed on encroached Marine Park lands in Massey Greene. In Ferry Reserve adjoining Crown reserve parklands will be used for ‘overflow’ parking and recreation. Resuming road reserve lands serves no public interest. For the past decade DOL has refused to negotiate, and is now attempting to acquire this land by ruthless force, solely to maximise park profits without due regard for the current and future impacts on the local community.

Fearless reportage in Mumbai

The Street Sweeper by Elliot Perlman

Behind the Beautiful Forevers by Katherine Boo

Review by Libby O’Loughlin

Review by Gay Bilson

Elliot Perlman’s The Street Sweeper is a masterfully written novel intertwining the lives of multiple characters and alternating seamlessly between 21st century New York and post-World War II Europe and the United States of America. Through the chance encounter in New York of an African-American man with a Holocaust survivor, and the subsequent development of an unlikely friendship, Perlman explores the complex theme of racism. He does this through both an historic context, with Hitler’s horrific attempted extermination of the Jews, as well as through a modern-day context through the plight of an exconvict, aka the street sweeper, who strives to better his social standing against the odds. The importance of history in educating and reminding people of past mistakes and atrocities, thereby nurturing an impetus for change, is introduced by way of a professor of history. This educated man is of the firm belief that his personal experience of a lacklustre father will ultimately dictate his future as a childless man. In so doing, he orchestrates his own personal disaster of a failed relationship just as

Katherine Boo’s greatest achievement in this remarkable book of ‘narrative nonfiction’ is to have entirely dispensed with her own voice, despite having spent four years immersed in the lives of specific families and with children in a slum, Annawadi, beside Mumbai’s international airport. The result is something akin to what we think of as fiction, but which is not. We might name Rohinton Mistry’s magisterial novel, A Fine Balance, as an example of an imaginative work that details the lives of those in the vast underbelly of India. Boo’s characters are real. The five possessions that had pushed the Husain family’s fortunes up the slum’s stunted ladder are a pushcart to carry garbage, the family’s hut, the storeroom for garbage beside the hut, a threewheeled cart that superseded the pushcart, and lastly a deposit on village land, the place left for the ‘better’ life to be had in Mumbai. However exotic the narrative is to us, the list is chilling. The book’s central, tragic story takes place around these possessions and the fraught

his career begins a downward spiral. Interestingly, his professional (and to some extent personal) salvation lies in an unprecedented discovery of oral history recordings in the basement of a Chicago library. Perlman states that, apart from a few minor exceptions, the mid-twentieth-century events depicted in The Street Sweeper all occurred, just as the fictional characters are based, at least in part, on real people.

Despite alternating between the past and present, Perlman maintains the continuity of this very engrossing story through the use of repetition and clever segueing. In what is a very intricately written book, every single character, context and event fulfils a purpose and drives the story. Elliot Perlman pays enormous attention to detail in The Street Sweeper and the reward is a challenging and highly enjoyable read.

relationships the Husains have with their neighbours, including Asha, whose ambition is to be a slumlord. Asha is in cahoots with a corrupt politician who wants Annawadi’s votes. ‘Across India, poor people were the ones who took the vote seriously. It was the only real power they had.’ Endemic political corruption and staggering corruption in the form of bribes

within the police force is the status quo. The paradoxically heroic figure of Abdul Husain is that of a child who has never known childhood as we define it. This is not Slumdog Millionaire. It is fearless, responsible reportage about a few of the millions in India whose lives of have not are as valuable as the lives of those who have.

This is the story of a man the church has feared and persecuted for more than a thousand years ‘David Lovejoy brilliantly recreates the riven and turbulent age in which Christianity evolved. A serious and challenging historical novel, but also a page-turner.’ – Mungo MacCallum

‘Jesus came to show us who we are. And somehow showing us who we are has gradually changed into telling us how to behave.’ – Arvellius Cambriensis, 415 AD

No historical facts were harmed in the making of this novel.

Fitting in with nature, we connect to the Earth Geoff Dawe

It is often said, tritely, that humans need to fit in with nature, but exactly where the line of balance in this regard is drawn is currently open to any interpretation at all. Coal-seam gas miners would no doubt see the mining of gas as fitting in with nature because it is using an available resource to better human living conditions the same as all species. For those such as the writer whose self-limiting tendencies of the mind have not ceased, fitting in with nature is not an absolute. One cannot say if one is an ordinary person who is a CSG miner or even if one is getting around naked and eat-

ing directly from the land, that one has fitted in with nature. Rather, fitting in is a comparative term, so that one could say that the naked, direct-eatingfrom-land person, is more fitting in with nature than a CSG miner. Fitting in with nature for humans is connected to how little one is bound to the Earth, how little one is dependent upon it for one’s living. Technology dependence is the binding of oneself to the Earth and that takes place by thinking that nature is inadequate or imperfect. Our eyes see imperfection in nature, but that is not because imperfection is in nature, but because our eyes do not

see truly. They are coloured by conditioning. It has been said by another that, ‘The real journey is not to other lands, but to see with new eyes.’ We live in a culture unable to return organic matter to soil, yet taxing nature for everything that it can provide to maintain excessive demands for material comfort, and deciding what parts of nature are to be valued and what parts are less worthy and even worthless. In Australia, the above ground is seen as increasingly less worthy as wealth comes from below ground sources. Where that all leads to for future generations no-one knows and while many care,

there is an overriding feeling of powerlessness to do anything about it. For Elizabeth Farrelly writing in the SMH (19/2/09), it is a human relationship with nature, similar to that between master and servant: ‘The presumption that nature is here at our pleasure and disposal – that its role in our eyes is a servant one, valued but distinctly below stairs – is familiar enough.’ In the Yoga tradition giving rise to Yogananda, Lahiri Mahasaya continues the master/servant metaphor: ‘Familiarity with Nature has bred contempt for her ultimate secrets; and our relation with her is one of practical business. We tease her, so to

<echowebsection=Articles>

speak, to discover the ways in which she may be forced to serve our purposes; we make use of her energies, whose source yet remains unknown. ‘In science our relation with Nature is like that between an arrogant man and his servant; or in a philosophical sense, Nature is like a captive in the witness box. We cross-examine her, challenge her and minutely weigh her evidence in human scales that cannot measure her hidden values. On the other hand, when the self is in communion with a higher power, Nature automatically obeys, without stress or strain the will of man. This effortless command over Nature is called “miraculous” by

the uncomprehending materialist.’ Materialism equals technology dependence. Fitting in with nature involves becoming as little dependent on technology as possible; it is the tendency toward autonomy of need for Earth-resourcing of oneself; it is return to the older technologies knowing that the older they are, generally speaking, the more sustainable they are. It is the understanding of the necessity for this different paradigm that is progress. References: Farrelly E, Sydney Morning Herald, 19/2/ 09.

HERE’S BEEN A NUMBER OF TRIBUTE SHOWS FLOATING AROUND CELEBRATING THE MUSIC OF JOHNNY CASH, BUT NO ONE EXCEPT TEX PERKINS EVEN COMES REMOTELY CLOSE. PERKINS DOING CASH IS ABOUT AS CLOSE AS YOU’LL EVER GET TO THE REAL THING. HANG ON, MAYBE IT’S BETTER, BECAUSE YOU GET CASH & PERKINS‌ SEVEN CAUGHT UP WITH THE MAN IN BLACK, MR TEX P. What do you think it is about Johnny Cash that still resonates with audiences today? Well, I guess it’s the songs, a lot of great songs... or perhaps the clothes. Black is the new brown which was the new black... remember? What is it about a man with a dark side that is so attractive? I don’t see any John Denver tribute shows popping up in a hurry! Well actually, I think you’ll find there WAS a John Denver show... but yeah, I guess Johnny’s story is a classic. Is this a tribute show per se? I guess it is, yes, but it’s more than just a tribute band playing music. It’s interwoven with dialogue. We tell the story of his life through song and story. It’s a far more theatrical experience. What is your favourite Johnny Cash song? Well, it changes all the time but I’ve always loved Folsom Prison Blues and the audience really comes alive for this one. And ya gotta love a song with the lyric `I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die`! Do you think there’s much of a chasm between the man and his music? Or does he pretty much sing it how it is? Oh yeah, whether he was singing about god, family and love or death, trains, prison and drugs – you could believe him... Do you identify with the character that is Johnny Cash? Yes, I’m afraid I do. Tell me about the band... Yes, it’s a great band. Such wonderful players: Steve Hadley on bass , Dave Foley on drums, Shane Riley on guitar, piano and pedal steel and recently the great Matt Walker has joined us on second guitar... they kill every single night. Is there a June Carter Cash or did they run out of budget? That’s a strange question, of course there’s a June! If you’re going to tell the story of his life you really have to have the love of his life as well. June is represented by the wonderful Rachael Tidd who has been with the show right from the start. Any surprises in store for the Star Court shows? Well now, if I told you it wouldn’t be a surprise, would it? Wednesday and Thursday at the Star Court Theatre in Lismore, 7:30pm.

B-SYDE ME B-Syde is a solo artist who challenges audience’s perception of what a solo artist can achieve, using live loops to bring hip hop, roots, and general electronic mayhem. Dabbling in the art of live looping and samples, B-Syde has constructed a setup that consists of multiple FX pads, loop pedals and synthesizers, allowing him to manipulate and record sounds seamlessly. He is at The Rails on Wednesday.

Featured music artists on Sunday at 2pm are a local acoustic trio Kellie Knight and Dr. Baz, with Paul Brewer on upright bass. Kellie Knight is recognised locally for her extraordinary soul and blues vocal and she is joined by local music legend Dr. Baz (aka Barry Ferrier) on guitar, keyboards and accordion. These two contrasting vocalists combine to produce a rich harmony sound with an interesting mix of cool original songs and well known silky smooth jazz standards plus some chilled contemporary acoustic funk grooves. Kellie and her band The Daze also play the Ballina RSL on Friday night.

The GCB has an exceptionally creative way of using all these early influences, as well as their own arrangements to craft their own style. Driving lead and rhythm guitars with the drums and bass as the rhythm engine combine with piano, organ and harmonica plus blues licks that add to the lush overtones.

anything that moves as a potential threat but it can be hard to switch that off! Especially if I’ve had a few brews! And the Audience Survey we do as part of the show in each town shows that, in most towns, it’s really not clear what a man’s gotta do to be considered a man. ‘Open the door for ladies, remove spiders without hurting them, express how he feels, deal with his anger appropriately, believe in himself without taking himself too seriously …’ or ‘Drink his own weight in ANDREW HORABIN FACED HIS OWN beer, drive fast and shag.’ It’s part of the fun of the show that we’re all working this stuff out together!

KERRIANNE COX AT SONGWRITERS ON THE SONGLINE AT UKI ANGLICAN CHURCH ON FRIDAY

FOXY MUSIC Brisbane’s Mayan Fox will be back at The Brewery this Saturday. Self-described as an ‘exotic pop’ act, the band is built around husband and wife duo, Nate and Maria, who spend much of their spare time writing and arranging music. Nate is suspected to be ADD which explains the random tempo and style changes typical of a Mayan Fox tune. Add the masked Tai Shan’s hot bass lines and Hong Kong’s own Vincent’s versatile beats and you have Mayan Fox music. The band will be supported by the one man, 8 TONI CHILDS AT TWIN TOWNS IN instrument act: Akova. 8pm start, free entry. TWEED HEADS ON FRIDAY

An old friend of mine used to say, say no to champagne, you say no to life! While this may be a provocative statement for committed nondrinkers, finally they can pick up when Champagne plays the Drill Hall. Daniel Champagne’s phenomenal guitar abilities often make him sound more like a three-piece band than a solo performer, pushing the instrument to beyond its boundaries, and Daniel’s now signature explosion of 2-hand tapping, body percussion and fiery runs in a variety of different tunings, alongside sublime jazzy finger picking and tasteful improvisation have become hallmarks of his impressive live shows. Reaching into Folk, Blues, Classical, Jazz and other stylings, Daniel delivers crowd-pleasing sets that include powerful foot-stomping

numbers, experimental compositions, bags of originals through to century-old Folk and Blues songs.

to find the edge of our mortality – and maybe hunting is something that does all that and then literally feeds both body and soul. My understanding is that the old hunting cultures were, for the most part, deeply respectful of the animals they caught, killed and ate. Which is a bit different to just buying bits of meat in a pack at the supermarket. It’s also been said that many men learn “shoulder to shoulder” rather than “face to face” and hunting could do that for some. Of course, if you’re vego, perhaps farming vegetables and herbs can have some of the same effect. But you might need to get your adrenaline somewhere else. Unless the carrots could actually attack. What are the major themes that you address in your show? Initiation, rites of passage, how boys become men in Australia – or don’t – and Eldership. There are other things that connect into all of those things – grog, violence, sex, masturbation, relationships with women, car craziness and so on – but they all wrap around those core themes. Why do you think men have such a hard time articulating their feelings…? Well, not all men do. There are many who can’t shut up about how they feel! And there are some who know how they feel and how and when to express it. But of course, there are so many who struggle. Of those ones, some don’t even know how they feel in the first place, let alone have any capacity to articulate – or express responsibly with something other than words – what those feelings are or might mean. And for those men, the reasons are varied – some had Dads who were not present or loving; some have always been tight live show. Joining them on this massive bill will be local bands Hybridize and Jamhog. Doors at 7.30pm, Entry only $10.

YOGA ROCK The Byron Spirit Festival is thrilled to present a hot winter’s night of transformative, tribal dance with Future Sound of Yoga at Coorabell Hall on Saturday. Future Sound of Yoga are Angel and Matt Singmin, a husbandwife duo who met at the Glastonbury Festival in 2005. Drawn together by their love of dance, yoga and electronic music, their relationship and life’s passions has lead them to create this unique performance act that has been making waves on dance floors and in yoga studios around the world. The support is DJ Chris Deckker, founder of Earthdance International, the largest synchronized music event for world peace, uniting over 350 global locations, as well as the internationally renowned band Medicine Drum, early pioneers of electronica/live fusion. Chris recently returned to Byron Bay after living abroad for over 20 years. His sets express his world exploits featuring the latest in global electronica from the Bumping Balkan Breaks to Spicy Indian Dub Step. There’s no yoga or dance experience necessary to deeply enjoy this pulse-racing evening with Future Sound of Yoga and Chris Deckker. Please wear comfortable gear, and let our guides take care of the rest. Saturday at Coorabell Hall. 8pm. Tickets at the door $20/$15. Chai and cakes by Open Table

E N T E R T A I N M E N T surrounded by blokes who have been told that emotion (other than anger, maybe) is weakness; some are afraid that if they start talking about how they feel they may never stop; I think a lot of us are scared that if we start to experience and express emotion, we’ll lose control – as if we were ever completely in control in the first place! But probably the most basic reason is that it’s considered ‘unmasculine’ to even experience things like fear, deep love, softness or grief – and to express them is to admit that terrible flaw. Of course it’s insane but that’s how it is for many Australian men today. Who are the men who have most influenced you? Men who’ve committed to owning their stuff – who look into their shadow and make it possible for others to do the same. Great husbands and Dads. Men who take on the big fights – sexism, racism, homophobia, and so on. Men who’ve had crap lives with no good role models and yet continually renew their determination to be good men themselves. Older men who are exploring Eldership and trying to set aside their egos. And ordinary men in small, sacred conversations who’ve opened, spoken their truth and risked everything that comes with that. What are the most valuable lessons you have learnt on your path to manhood? That if you didn’t have great parents, great mentors, enlightened mates, a series of loving partners and a skilfully facilitated rite of passage into manhood, it’s bloody hard work becoming a good man – but still worth a shot. That there are loads of other men who feel something similar to me, who are facing similar demons or to songwriting and ‘Old Time’ referring to collision DALLAS FRASCA AT THE HOT of musical cultures of EL GREAT N ORTHERN the Irish, English and ON African Americans in the SATURDA Y Appalachian mountain regions of America.

TONGAN TENOR AT OPERA AT THE CHANNON! New Zealand’s favourite tenor, Tongan-Samoan Benjamin Makisi, has just partnered Dame Kiri te Kanawa in concert. It was his second personal invitation from the great Diva, who clearly believes SET SAIL AT THE BEACH he has a talent worthy HOTEL ON FRIDAY of shining beside her own. Incredibly, in just a couple of months, Benjamin will be on his way to Lismore to sing in this year’s 15th annual, Opera at the Channon, on Sunday. Makisi will perform in a wonderful line-up of singers assembled by Queensland’s boutique Opera and Song company, OPERATIF! OPERATIF! are expert at creating outdoor performances of this nature, having taken the joys of Opera and Song to a broad range of audiences in all sorts of places for over 18 years.

difficulties and who will share the journey with me. That while you can’t generalise about relationships because they’re all different – and when you factor in varied cultures, sexualities and stages of life, the permutations are endless – there are plenty of heterosexual women who still want men to be “men” – decisive, strong, courageous, handy on the tools, a great kisser, willing to take out the bins and spiders without making a fuss and occasionally a bit mysterious or daring. They would just like to add to that he’s also a good cook, can express how he feels, takes responsibility, shares the housework, loves his partner and kids, has a dance without needing to be drunk and believes in himself without taking himself too seriously. Sounds easy enough, hey? What is the relevance of rites of passage or initiation – how could these be introduced to fit with our cultural patterns? This is something I’m really still working on. I’ve seen some interesting stuff being done around the country – rites of passage retreats for boys and girls – but it will be some time before we know how successful they are. My current thinking is just that it needs to be locally-driven – it has to be something that works for each child, not something that can be prescribed and applied nationally. I’m wondering if it actually has to be something that just happens in small groups so that the women and men involved can design something personal and meaningful for each child. I’m hoping to learn more about it over the years. What do you think are the major challenges facing most blokes

ART IN THE HEART OF LISMORE The 24th consecutive exhibition presented by the Lismore Art in the Heart project features the work of longtime friends and creative collaborators from Byron Shire, Jill Keogh and Kim Brereton. Their thought-provoking installation entitled ‘Open for Introspection’ which incorporates two and three-dimensional artworks made entirely from recycled or scrap materials will be housed in the Art in the Heart Pop Up Gallery at 56 Magellan Street until 26 July. Jill and Kim have co-exhibited at many galleries, including the Lismore Regional Gallery, the former Southern Cross University ‘next’ Gallery, the Waywood Gallery in Byron Bay and the Rhode Island Gallery in the USA. Their work always contains a strong political component and has been included as an educational teaching aid entitled ‘Through Australian Women’s Eyes’.

in the modern world? I’m going to assume “most blokes” means your average guy and say that our challenges is to find balance. Balance of the best elements of ourselves. To keep everything good that is identified by some as the “masculine” whilst courageously looking at the shadow of the masculine and how it plays out for us individually and across the whole culture. It’s really time we stood up and took responsibility for the carnage we cause through our unconsciousness. Tell me about your show, how much do you reveal of the journey in it? Well having said all this really heavy stuff, the show is actually a comedy! It’s stand–up comedy wrapped around a story – about Adam, who has 24 hours to prove he’s a man or lose his Bride – and peppered with songs and a few contributions from the audience. It’s a lot of fun and a great night out. I share a little of my own story and also reveal some of the things lads are facing through the characters Adam, Muzza, Gazza, Stuey and Joe – and Adam’s Grandad Jack. It’s a lot of fun but it also has a lot of layers. What should we expect? Laughter, great stories, spontaneity – a one-off show. Every show is different because the town and the audience become part of it through their contributions. Here is a comment from a punter who came to the Brisbane show last night. Posted on our FB page: ‘Andrew, your show tonight in Brisbane was amazing – I laughed, I cried, and I came away feeling like the world was a better place!’ Saturday at Lismore City Hall. Bookings 1300 066772 in their own words and revealing the private obsessions and public concerns that animate their lives.

With Mercury retrograde, allow for misunderstandings in communication - don’t assume people know what you mean. And check everything: dates, times, arrangments, wallet, keys…

E ARIES: If this week presents financial surprises of the not entirely welcome kind and life suddenly seems to shrink a bit, it’s worth remembering Aries Joseph Campbell’s delightful directive: Follow your bliss and the world will open doors for you where there were only walls… F TAURUS: You’re excused should you feel confused with this week’s mood swings and mixed messages, so if important things aren’t clear, back up facts and insist on getting second opinions. There’s plenty of hidden agendas in play, so be discreet about volunteering personal information. G GEMINI: Esoteric astrology considers Gemini’s ruling planet Mercury the messenger between soul and personality, brain and body, inner and outer worlds. This week’s transit isn’t about going out, but coming home to yourself for maintenance, self-care and contemplation. Not your thing? Why not – it involves thinking, doesn’t it? H CANCER: Experiencing what Cancerian songwriter Tim Finn calls an agonising ignorance of bliss? Midweek Cancer new moon offers the annual chance to reset your perspective. As who you’ve been and who you’re becoming intersect, you could be an ambassador of light to everyone you meet. Just a thought…

I LEO: Of course you always say the right thing, but with Mercury retro in Leo watch you don’t say it at the wrong time. And should retail therapy beckon, the standard warnings about buying apply, because Mercury retrograde doubles the chances of malfunctions, complications and post-purchase dissatisfaction. J VIRGO: This week has iron agendas and great expectations so avoid making promises you might have problems keeping, because there’ll be hell if you don’t deliver. With your ruler Mercury playing trickster for three weeks, the more you appreciate life’s rascal magic the less irritated you’ll be. K LIBRA: Backing up computer files this week is essential. It’s also worth making duplicate copies of documents and cutting an extra set of keys. Factor in delays and allow extra time for travelling to appointments. Above all, enjoy this less urgent, more thoughtful pace… L SCORPIO: Scorpios are risk takers – but not during the next three accident-prone weeks, please. This week’s energetic holding pattern’s perfect for processing the present planetary changes, and if the upside of these are hard to find, try loving the downside till it starts looking good.

SUMMER DAYS IN BYRON

M S AGITTARIUS: Mercury retrograde exemplifies the prefix ‘re’, so apply due diligence to agreements, arrangements and purchases or you might have to return, reconsider or repair them later. Cross reference, double check and be thorough, because this week important information could be lost, overlooked or omitted. N CAPRICORN: This week’s about less pushing, more allowing. Less striving, more maintenance. Choosing less of what diminishes your spirit, more of the things that feed your soul. Retreat, privacy and quiet are great if you can get them – if not, then just take it easy, eh? O AQUARIUS: If this week activates emotional exchanges, and it may, your code word is Listen. To people’s feelings, ideas and reasons till you understand that what you and others want isn’t basically so different. The week’s most enjoyable activity? Brainstorming. Best day for it? Friday. P PISCES: What you do this week and how others perceive you doing it will affect the way the rest of the year plays out. So it’s worth considering the Zen proverb: Knowledge is learning something every day. Wisdom is letting go of something every day.

Byron Bay – Summer Days is a no budget film by Dominic Sullivan, stepping into the bubble of Byron Bay. This film is to be premiered on Wednesday 25th July at the Byron Bay Community Centre. Meet the characters of the once sleepy town of Byron Bay where the locals are hard to find amidst the thriving tourist town it’s become today. From surfing on some of Australia’s most beautiful beaches to snorkelling, kayaking around the pristine ‘Bay’, take a journey through the eyes of a local. The far most easterly point of Australia’s mainland comes some salty characters; parents drawn to the area in the 60s and 70s as hippies and freethinkers looking for a laid back lifestyle that is still present in the town today. See through the eyes of these people the things that float their boat, views and thoughts. What’s next for Byron Bay? Pre sale tickets $7 through www. byroncentre.com or at the community centre in town or $10 on the night. Live music Toy Boats acoustic set and a raffle to rule all! 7pm

CHESS

by Ian Rogers Play at Byron Services Club, Mon 7pm The World Rapid and Blitz Championships, which concluded in Astana, Kazakhstan, resulted in two near-misses for world number one Magnus Carlsen. The Norwegian 21-year-old superstar led the World Rapid Championship (15 minutes per player per game, plus a 10 second increment per move) from the start, but on the final day collapsed with consecutive losses to allow Russia’s Sergey Karjakin, 22, to overtake him. The World Blitz Championship, a 30 round marathon at three minutes per player per game plus a two second increment per move, was a mirror image: Carlsen started badly but finished with 8/8 only to fall half a point short of Alexander Grischuk, the Russian’s second world blitz title. Q At the previous blitz title tournament in 2010, Azeri GM Teimour Radjabov said to Carlsen, ‘Everyone is getting tired. You might as well start with 1.a4 and you can still beat them.’ (1.a4 is one of the most useless

opening moves.) Sure enough, when facing Radjabov, Carlsen decided to test the theory… Astana 2012 White: M Carlsen Black: T Radjabov Opening: Meadow Hay 1.a4!? e5 2.e4 Nf6 3.Nc3 Nc6 4.Nf3 Bb4 5.Bb5 0-0 6.0-0 d6 7.d3 Bg4 8.Ne2! A common plan in similar positions. White does not fear 8...Bxf3 9.gxf3 as he can later play f4. 8...a6 9.Bxc6 bxc6 10.Ng3 Nh5 11.h3 Nxg3 12.fxg3 Bd7 13.g4 Bc5+ 14.Kh1 Qe7 15.Qe1 f6 16.Nh4 g6 17.Bh6 Rf7 18.Rb1!? Hard to understand, but at three seconds per move it is not easy to find a long-term plan. 18...Bb6 19.b3 d5 20.Nf3 Re8 21.Qg3 Bc5 22.Rbe1 dxe4 23.dxe4 Bd6 24.Re2 c5 25.Nd2 Be6 26.Qd3 g5? All ill-fated attempted to trap the h6 bishop. After 26...Bc8, Black is passive but solid. 27.Qxa6 Kh8 28.Nc4 Bxc4 29.Qxc4 Rg8 30.h4! gxh4 31.g5 Rg6 32.Ref2 1-0 Black can barely move, so the White a pawn will advance unhindered – a triumph for 1.a4! a

Participants will be required to attend a briefing workshop with the artist from 11.30am12.30 on Friday with the performance commencing at 2pm. To register or for further information email artgallery@ lismore.nsw.gov.au or phone 6622 2209.

CHOPPER ON SALT

What is it about Australia’s outlaw fascination. From the legendary Ned Kelly to the jumbuck stealing swagman, Waltzing Matilda, our heritage is littered with infamy and intrigue. Of the many anti-heroes who have shaped Australia’s underbelly, only Mark Brandon ‘Chopper’ Read remains. Considered by many as Australia’s last outlaw, the former Pentridge inmate is now a self respecting family man, living peacefully in Melbourne. Now an entertainer, artist, author of several best selling books and philanthropist. Who says crime doesn’t pay? Certainly not Chopper. He is at Saltbar in Kingscliff on Saturday.

E N T E R T A I N M E N T

Careless Love To be captivated by a movie’s first image is to be ushered without qualm into the world that it opens up. Cinematographer Kathryn Milliss’s serene shot of a Sydney ferry making its way through the quiet rain evokes a private, secretive mood that colours all that follows. Without painting prostitution as anything less than an emotionally and

physically ruinous game to be involved in, director John Duigan, in a welcome return to the screen, has subtly but defiantly challenged the accepted mantras of sexual politics. His central character is Linh (Nammi Le), a call girl who breaks the mould by not being just another stereotypical victim of the patriarchy. A Vietnamese uni student, she works for an escort agency as a means to support both

herself and her unknowing parents back in South Australia. Liberated from the narrow confines of the commentariat’s orthodoxy, Duigan is able to introduce the human factor into a story that looks at how unforgiving convention and the demands of love can derail our untested moral certainties. Le, bringing to her part a diamond-hard brittleness, gives the film its heart, and she is ably supported by the wonderful Ivy Mak as Mint, a more hardened practitioner in the oldest profession – their little schoolgirls routine is a scream. As Dion, the minder who chauffeurs the pair to their appointments, David Field introduces earthy intimacy to a business not credited with such sentiment – the unexpectedly heartwarming scene in which he dances with Mint after she has been brutalised by coppers glows with previously concealed affection. Inevitably, Linh’s other life intrudes upon her social activities and, again, Duigan surprises with the outcome of the romance that has blossomed between her and fellow student Jack (Andrew Hazzard). Intrigue is threaded through proceedings by the nefarious activities of regular client Luke (Peter O’Brien), whose dalliance with Linh goes beyond that of the uncaring punter. In an outstanding movie of refreshing truthfulness, Linh the survivor gets the last say, and she shines like a torch. ~

movie, which she wrote and directed, is probably not as bad as that – it just feels like it for most of the time. Margot (Michelle Williams with an annoying fringe) has been married to Daniel (Seth Rogan) for five reasonably happy but, it soon becomes clear, not very satisfying years. Unfulfilled, poor Margot seems on the verge of weeping at the drop of a hat, but her life is changed forever when she meets Daniel (Luke Kirby) – it is an embarrassingly contrived encounter – who turns out to be her neighbour. Daniel pulls a rickshaw for a crust (I still haven’t worked out the significance of that) and he’s a horny rascal with a talent for dirty talk. Margot falls for him while Daniel beavers away on chicken recipes for his great culinary tome. Polley gives us scant insight into the married couple’s relationship – they appear to spend a lot of their time doing goo-goo baby talk, although Daniel does wish wistfully that they had a dog (I wished they did, too). Not much else happens, other than the touchy-feely stuff that accompanies the tugging on irresolute Margot’s heartstrings. There is a very funny scene at an aquarobics class in which she pees in the pool and, to be fair, Williams and Rogen manage to eke out much bittersweet tenderness John Campbell in the final scene when they are sitting on the porch together. Video Killed the Radio Star injects pulsating vitality into Dominating the bookshops’ the story’s telling and insightful list of best-sellers at the climax (if you could call it moment is Fifty Shades of that), as Margot and Daniel are Grey by E. L. James. By all alone together one night at an accounts it’s braining it amusement park, and Polley because of its erotica-forproves to be a dab hand at women component, despite creating all too familiar edgy the general consensus that, as situations for her characters, literature, it’s completely on the but an unexceptional narrative nose. Canadian Sarah Polley’s is unable to rise above the mundane. ~ John Campbell

THURSDAY 19

Television Guide It’s a weekend of big budget films which manage to remain maverick: 1. Fantastic Mr. Fox (NBN, Saturday, 7.40pm) is a clever stop-motion animated film based on the Roald Dahl children’s novel. George Clooney is wonderful as the voice of the fox, whose charm and strength of will border on the psychopathic. Some critics felt it wasn’t as dark as the Dahl original but it makes good points about animal nature and environmental vandalism. Chickens are advised to go to bed early. 2. Team America: World Police (ONE HD, Sunday, 10.25pm) is brought to you by the mad gang who created the TV series South Park and is the best thing done with marionettes since the 60s Thunderbirds. It satirises big budget films and American politics and anything else the boys think of on the way. The marionettes, which fornicate in a most convincing way, were made by the Chiodo Brothers: www.chiodobros.com.

VICTORIA COSFORD Nothing prepared me for the ending. And while of course I would never divulge it here, it is to the author’s credit that he twists his tale so subtly and with such craft that the denouement delivers a force quite mighty. Largely set in a Cook’s School, a farm where wayward boys have been sent as a sort of second chance in life a la Jamie Oliver’s Fifteen project, it is recounted by Zac, a likeable-enough character, at least initially, whose crime is never disclosed. Zac, unlike all the others, really does want to learn how to be a great chef and the lengths he goes to in order to do so are often extreme – such as feeding his personal ewes grain, rosemary, pinot noir and sea salt in order that the unborn lamb he will subsequently slaughter and cook will take up those flavours via the placenta. The relative paucity of punctuation and idiomatic tone – following the rhythms of Zac’s thoughts and speech – rapidly become unnoticeable as he takes you further into his obsessive mind. And while the book may be described as a satire on themes like modern cooking, the celebrity status afforded chefs and the purist’s pursuit of impossible and often outlandish perfection, I found it disturbingly close to what really goes on in today’s food-fanatical and food-gimmicky world. I was also reminded of M J Hyland, another writer we were lucky to have grace our Writers' Festival last year, whose seemingly simple, spare style of storytelling merely paves the way for the horror ahead. Equal measures moving and funny, chilling and entertaining, this book is well worth the journey – even if cooking is not your thing. The Cook – Wayne Macauley. Text Publishing. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to interview author Wayne Macauley, a telephone session between Melbourne and the northern rivers. My first question was whether in a past life he had worked as a chef, so knowledgeable had he been in his evocation of food and cooking and a chef’s life. ‘No’, was the response. ‘I came to it completely naively – just as the character Zac had done. Sure, I picked

I brought up the satirical nature of the book, and Wayne remarked that a lot of his work is indeed satirical. ‘But the word is much degraded now’, he continued. ‘I approach satire in a political way, like Jonathon Swift. It’s that kind of satire that informs my work. As a writer I have my ear to the ground, always reading the Zeitgeist… There’s something excessive about all this (fascination with food, cooking, celebrity chefdom) – the crazy amount around us in all the media. You can’t get away from it. So as a satirist and simply as a writer I can’t help taking that and putting it under a microscope. At the moment cheffing is how you get your head on the telly – I find that strange, and funny. It’s not hard to see humour in us human beings. We are sad and funny at the same time. When you take away God and reason we are left sad and funny. I wanted always to explore that in my work. I’m most interested in us stripped bare…’ Wayne Macauley appears alongside local author Jim Hearn (High Season) at the Byron Bay Writers' Festival on Sunday 5 August in the Blue Marquee at 12 midday in a session entitled ‘Cooking Your Way To Salvation’.

It was, he told me, a deliberate artistic choice to start out as naive as his protagonist – ‘so my journey into culinary knowledge was the same as Zac’s… I wanted to begin in the dark, like him, and fill in the gaps of knowledge as he went along. I was doing the research as I wrote… I tend to write my books like that. I don’t like to plan too much – it kills off creative possibilities if you plan too much. If I don’t have an answer at my fingertips at a certain point I’ll leave a blank on the page.’

Have you heard the expression “she has green thumbs in the garden�? This is how I think of Jo when I feel her hands working all those places on my body that I have either overworked or neglected. Jo knows where to go and what to do without me ever having to ask. I have been coming to Jo for massages for twenty five years. Every time is different but the results are always the same. I roll off the massage table and walk out the door feeling softer and more supple, body and mind. Thank you Jo.

Pulp Friction

Red Shadows: The Coming of Solomon Kane Robert E. Howard

The moonlight shimmered hazily, making silvery mists of illusion among the shadowy trees. A faint breeze whispered down the valley, bearing a shadow that was not of the moon-mist. A faint scent of smoke was apparent. The man whose long, swinging strides, unhurried yet unswerving, had carried him for many a mile since sunrise, stopped suddenly. A movement in the trees had caught his attention, and he moved silently toward the shadows, a hand resting lightly on the hilt of his long, slim rapier. Warily he advanced, his eyes striving to pierce the darkness that brooded under the trees. This was a wild and menacing country; death might be lurking under those trees. Then his hand fell away from the hilt and he leaned forward. Death indeed was there, but not in such shape as might cause him fear. ‘The fires of Hades!’ he murmured. ‘A girl! What has harmed you, child? Be not afraid of me.’ The girl looked up at him, her face like a dim white rose in the dark. ‘You – who are – you?’ her words came in gasps. ‘Naught but a wanderer, a landless man, but a friend to all in need.’ The gentle voice sounded somehow incongruous, coming from the man. The girl sought to prop herself up on her elbow, and instantly he knelt and raised her to a sitting position, her head resting against his shoulder. His hand touched her breast and came away red and wet. Tell me.’ His voice was soft,

soothing, as one speaks to a babe. ‘Le Loup,’ she gasped, her voice swiftly growing weaker. ‘He and his men–descended upon our village – a mile up the valley. They robbed – slew– burned– ’ ‘That, then, was the smoke I scented,’ muttered the man. ‘Go on, child.’ ‘I ran. He, the Wolf, pursued me – and – caught me – ’ The words died away in a shuddering silence. ‘I understand, child. Then – ?’ ‘Then – he – he – stabbed me – with his dagger--oh, blessed saints! – mercy –’ Suddenly the slim form went limp. The man eased her to the earth, and touched her brow lightly. ‘Dead!’ he muttered. Slowly he rose, mechanically wiping his hands upon his cloak. A dark scowl had settled on his sombre brow. Yet he made no wild, reckless vow, swore no oath by saints or devils. ‘Men shall die for this,’ he said coldly.

The fellow spoken to replied sullenly, ‘This Solomon Kane is a demon from Hell, I tell you.’ ‘Faugh! Dolt! He is a man – who will die from a pistol ball or a sword thrust.’ ‘So thought Jean, Juan and La Costa,’ answered the other grimly. ‘Where are they? Ask the mountain wolves that tore the flesh from their dead bones. Where does this Kane hide? We have searched the mountains and the valleys for leagues, and we have found no trace. I tell you, Le Loup, he comes up from Hell. I knew no good would come from hanging that friar a moon ago.’ The Wolf strummed impatiently upon the table. His keen face, despite lines of wild living and dissipation, was the face of a thinker. The superstitions of his followers affected him not at all. ‘Faugh! I say again. The fel-

low has found some cavern or secret vale of which we do not know where he hides in the day.’ ‘And at night he sallies forth and slays us,’ gloomily commented the other. ‘He hunts us down as a wolf hunts deer – by God, Le Loup, you name yourself Wolf but I think you have met at last a fiercer and more crafty wolf than yourself! The first we know of this man is when we find Jean, the most desperate bandit unhung, nailed to a tree with his own dagger through his breast, and the letters S.L.K. carved upon his dead cheeks. Then the Spaniard Juan is struck down, and after we find him he lives long enough to tell us that the slayer is an Englishman, Solomon Kane, who has sworn to destroy our entire band! What then? La Costa, a swordsman second only to yourself, goes forth swearing to meet this

Chapter 2. The Lair of the Wolf ‘You are a fool!’ The words came in a cold snarl that curdled the hearer’s blood. He who had just been named a fool lowered his eyes sullenly without answer. ‘You and all the others I lead!’ The speaker leaned forward, his fist pounding emphasis on the rude table between them. He was a tall, rangy-built man, supple as a leopard and with a lean, cruel, predatory face. His eyes danced and glittered with a kind of reckless mockery.

Are we all to fall before this English fiend?’ ‘True, our best men have been done to death by him,’ mused the bandit chief. ‘Soon the rest return from that little trip to the hermit’s; then we shall see. Kane can not hide forever. Then – ha, what was that?’ The two turned swiftly as a shadow fell across the table. Into the entrance of the cave that formed the bandit lair, a man staggered. His eyes were wide and staring; he reeled on buckling legs, and a dark red stain dyed his tunic. He came a few tottering steps forward, then pitched across the table, sliding off onto the floor. ‘Hell’s devils!’ cursed the Wolf, hauling him upright and propping him in a chair. ‘Where are the rest, curse you?’ ‘Dead! All dead!’ ‘How? Satan’s curses on you, speak!’ The Wolf shook the man savagely, the other bandit gazing on in wide-eyed horror. ‘We reached the hermit’s hut just as the moon rose,’ the man muttered. ‘I stayed outside – to watch – the others went in – to torture the hermit – to make him reveal – the hiding-place – of his gold.’ ‘Yes, yes! Then what?’ The Wolf was raging with impatience. ‘Then the world turned red – the hut went up in a roar and a red rain flooded the valley – through it I saw – the hermit and a tall man clad all in black – coming from the trees – ’ ‘Solomon Kane!’ gasped the bandit. ‘I knew it! I –’ ‘Silence, fool!’ snarled the chief. ‘Go on!’ ‘I fled – Kane pursued – wounded me – but I outran – him – got – here – first –’ The man slumped forward on the table. ‘Saints and devils!’ raged the Wolf. ‘What does he look like, this Kane?’ ‘Like – Satan – ’ The voice trailed off in silence. The dead man slid from the table to lie in a red heap upon the floor. ‘Like Satan!’ babbled the other bandit. ‘I told you! ‘Tis the Horned One himself! I tell you – ’ He ceased as a frightened face peered in at the cave entrance. ‘Kane?’ ‘Aye.’ The Wolf was too much at sea to lie. ‘Keep close watch, La Mon; in a moment the Rat and I will join you.’ The face withdrew and Le Loup turned to the other. ‘This ends the band,’ said he. ‘You, I, and that thief La Mon are all that are left. What would you suggest?’ The Rat’s pallid lips barely

formed the word: ‘Flight!’ ‘You are right. Let us take the gems and gold from the chests and flee, using the secret passageway.’ ‘And La Mon?’ ‘He can watch until we are ready to flee. Then – why divide the treasure three ways?’ A faint smile touched the Rat’s malevolent features. Then a sudden thought smote him. ‘He,’ indicating the corpse on the floor, ‘said, “I got here first.” Does that mean Kane was pursuing him here?’ And as the Wolf nodded impatiently the other turned to the chests with chattering haste. The flickering candle on the rough table lighted up a strange and wild scene. The light, uncertain and dancing, gleamed redly in the slowly widening lake of blood in which the dead man lay; it danced upon the heaps of gems and coins emptied hastily upon the floor from the brass-bound chests that ranged the walls; and it glittered in the eyes of the Wolf with the same gleam which sparkled from his sheathed dagger. The chests were empty, their treasure lying in a shimmering mass upon the bloodstained floor. The Wolf stopped and listened. Outside was silence. There was no moon, and Le Loup’s keen imagination pictured the dark slayer, Solomon Kane, gliding through the blackness, a shadow among shadows. He grinned crookedly; this time the Englishman would be foiled. ‘There is a chest yet unopened,’ said he, pointing. The Rat, with a muttered exclamation of surprise, bent over the chest indicated. With a single, catlike motion, the Wolf sprang upon him, sheathing his dagger to the hilt in the Rat’s back, between the shoulders. The Rat sagged to the floor without a sound. ‘Why divide the treasure two ways?’ murmured Le Loup, wiping his blade upon the dead man’s doublet. ‘Now for La Mon.’ He stepped toward the door; then stopped and shrank back. At first he thought that it was the shadow of a man who stood in the entrance; then he saw that it was a man himself, though so dark and still he stood that a fantastic semblance of shadow was lent him by the guttering candle. A tall man, as tall as Le Loup he was, clad in black from head to foot, in plain, closefitting garments that somehow suited the somber face. Long arms and broad shoulders betokened the swordsman, as plainly as the long rapier in his hand. The features of the man were saturnine and gloomy. Q Read more at http://bit.ly/Ns4TcV

HELP STOP ILLEGAL DUMPING Council is seeking the community’s help to stop illegal dumping in our shire. If you see anyone dumping waste, please contact Council on 6626 7000 or email council@byron.nsw.gov.au. The more details about dumping Council receives, the more chance Council can stop a practice which leaves rubbish in our neighbourhoods, is bad for the environment, and poses a safety risk to residents, particularly curious young children. Since July 1, residents can deposit up to 150kg of bulk waste at the Myocum Landfill free of charge. For full details of this free service for residents, go to www. byron.nsw.gov.au/myocum-landfill-bulk-waste-drop-off.

PUBLIC EXHIBITIONS Revised Fees and Charges 2012–13 Myocum Landfill Waste Services On 29 June 2012, Council resolved (12-485) that the following charges be advertised as proposed changes to 2012/2013 Fees and Charges adopted by Council: s Wet Putrescible Waste (General mixed garbage) – delete the distinction between generated inside and outside the Shire and move to universally apply the currently advertised charge of $240/tonne. s Dry Non-Putrescible Garbage (ie Construction/demolition waste) – increase the charge to $240/tonne commensurate with the wet putrescible waste charge and delete the distinction between generated inside and outside the Shire and move to universally apply the charge. s Concrete and Building Rubble – increase the charge to $70/tonne to reflect the cost of NSW Waste Levy and the cost of processing this waste into a recyclable form. s Dirty concrete, tiles, brick blocks etc (Mixed with soil and reinforcing steel) – increase the charge to $240/tonne to be the same as dry non-putrescibles garbage because there is no capacity, in terms of space and machinery, at Myocum Landfill to process and potentially recycle this material. s Other Special Wastes (Food processing waste/highly putrescible and offensive waste) – delete the distinction between generated inside and outside the Shire and move to universally apply the currently advertised charge of $300/tonne. s Contaminated Soil – increase the charge to $240/tonne commensurate with the wet putrescible waste charge and delete the distinction between generated inside and outside the Shire and move to universally apply the charge. The Myocum Landfill revised fees are on exhibition for a period of 28 days and are available at community access points around the Shire or on Council’s website at www. byron.nsw.gov.au/public-exhibition.

The NSW Police Dog Unit has welcomed the addition of seven new puppies to its crime fighting force and is asking the public to help choose their names. Members of the public are being asked to access the Police Dog Unit’s Facebook site at https://www.facebook.com/ NSWPFDogUnit and suggest names for both the three female and four male puppies, as well as vote on names suggested by others. The ‘Puppy Poll’ will last for three weeks when the votes will be counted and the names of the dogs will be announced. The puppies are part of the ‘A’ litter, as they are the first kind of spaniels at the unit, and so names must start with the letter ‘A’ and need to be no more than two syllables. The pups’ day-to-day progress can also be tracked online with ‘Puppy Cam’, streaming live on the NSW Police Force website at www.police.nsw.gov.au. The seven English springer spaniel puppies were born on Friday June 29 and are the first of their breed to be born into the Dog Unit at Menai. Eight puppies were born to mother ‘Bronte,’ four girls and four boys, but unfortunately one female pup died. The seven springer spaniel puppies will stay at the Dog Unit with their mum until they

Rumours of champions’ demise prove premature John Campbell

The Byron Bay Red Devils would have traveled to Grafton’s Frank McGuren Park on Sunday fancying their chances but wary of their faltering hosts. Reigning premiers the Ghosts looked to be on the skids, losing at three of their last four outings, but if anything can sting a champion side it is talk of their decline. When the dust had settled on a glowing afternoon in the Clarence Valley, Grafton had run out 16–0 winners, but the result tended to raise more questions than it answered. As a contest, it was one that the Devils were never out of but, curiously, they were never really in either – the Ghosts had their measure at every turn. Byron kicked off and Grafton were awarded a penalty in the first tackle – it has become a mandatory procedure (have the refs made a pact to do this as a way of asserting themselves?). Benefiting from a toll-free trip into the Devils’ quarter, the Ghosts scored an

‘Oh yeah? Well you shoulda heard what she said about you!’ The Devils’ Bill Lowrie and Chris King exchange pleasantries with their Grafton hosts on Sunday.

alarmingly soft try by simply running straight through a flimsy frontline tackle. Pretty soon everything was happening in Byron’s half. As penalties flowed steadily against them, the Devils learnt in no uncertain terms that if

you are gonna commit the crime you’ve gotta be prepared to do the time – they were under enormous territorial pressure and coach Tobin Cupples would have at least been pleased by the character his boys showed in coping with it.

When the rugby teams of Byron Bay and Bangalow meet at Red Devils park this Wednesday night they will renew one of the most intense rivalries in far north coast sport. Think Celtics versus Rangers or Ali versus Frazier. Or imagine 15 Kevin Rudds up against 15 Julia Gillards. One of the oldest rugby clubs in Australia, Byron Bay was founded more than 100 years ago but when Bangalow re-formed ten years ago it took with it a number of the Bay’s leading players. While a current of mutual respect runs through the two clubs, an undertide of hostility and antagonism always sits just below the surface. Midway through the current season Byron Bay are seven points clear of Bangalow, thanks in part to a dramatic 9–8 first-round victory but there is little doubt the visitors are one of the most improved teams in the competition. Bangalow have amassed 123 points and

conceded only 16 in their past three matches. Despite Byron Bay winning the past six derby contests, Bangalow will start favorites on the strength of recent form and their exceptionally hard working and aggressive forward pack. The Bay lost consecutive matches to Yamba and Grafton but go into this game after a moral boosting 49–0 win on Saturday in the time-honoured Ashes against Mullumbimby. Byron Bay winger Harry Hancock looked as sharp as ever adding two tries to his season tally to become the leading try-scorer in all far north coast senior rugby competitions. Mitch Loane, Frank Kearney and new lock Matt Larsson also crossed for five pointers. Tom Sandstrom scored one of the tries of the season, catching the final ball in a 90-metre move that passed through a dozen sets of hands. Mercurial goal kicker Nathan Nicholls kicked all seven conversions including three from the sideline. Hancock, Nicholls and

Larrson were all impressive along with the outstanding Josh Smith and towering lock Tom Barry. With the Ashes trophy safely secured Byron Bay made a number of second-half substitutions and welcomed back Robert Lynch after a five week absence. Lynch showed enough in the last quarter of the game to indicate he is peaking for his return clash with Bangalow. The Bay also looks forward to the return of quality prop Kaine O’Regan who has missed the past two games. With the top four teams being virtually decided there is more at stake between Byron Bay and Bangalow than ever before. A win for the Bay will keep them in the hunt for a top-two finish and the double chance come semifinals time. A loss would almost certainly position Byron and Bangalow in the sudden-death elimination final come September. Admission on Wednesday night is free. Kickoff is at 7pm.

Byron derby girls are rolling along Roller derby is the fastest-growing women’s sport in the world and the north coast of NSW is no exception. Five leagues in the area have formed the North Coast Derby Coalition, which is a year-long round-robin competition. Throughout the year teams will travel between Tweed Heads and Coffs Harbour to play roller derby with the top two teams battling it out in December to become

the top team in our region. The teams involved are The Bay Rollers, Tweed Valley Vixens, Clarence Valley Roller Derby League, Northern Rivers Roller Derby and Coffs Coast Derby Dolls. Women’s flat-track roller derby is a fast-paced sport played on roller skates. Teams of five players skate around the track (about the width and length of a basketball court) each try-

AFL Finals in their sights

Byron Bay holds on to Ashes DJ Longtime

What Cupples would not have been happy with was their attention to detail, or lack of. When the ref finally blew one in Byron’s favour, their kick failed to find touch. It’s not that hard to put it out and if the penalty count is against you by

6–1 at the break such a basic blunder can have enormous repercussions. The less said about Grafton’s second try the better. Bombs are a lottery at the best of times, but it’s infuriating to see one awarded from a knock-on that blind Freddy could have spotted. Trailing 10–0, Byron nevertheless gave the impression that the game might still be theirs if only they could tidy up their act. They couldn’t, and it wasn’t. In a bruising second forty, the Ghosts were simply too good. Their line defence was quicker, their structure more solid and, guided by their man-of-the-match half-back, their composure was unflappable. With three rounds of the NRRRL to be completed before the play-offs, Byron are still securely placed in the top five and will be not unreasonably confident of winning two of those fixtures. The first of them is at home against the Kyogle Turkeys on Sunday. In footy, all sides are at some point plagued by injuries and

ing to get their point-scoring ‘jammer’ through the pack (or scrum) of players. The skaters are playing both offence and defence at the same time, using their bodies to hit and block each other to gain advantage. Come and support your local girls and even find the love for a new sport in the process! Doors open at 6.15pm. First game – The Bay Rollers vs Coffs Coast Derby Dolls.

With the Coopers Magpies nest closed again this Saturday, Byron travelled north to take on top-of-the-table Tweed Tigers at Tiger-land. The Tigers were undefeated at home since 2009. The small ground gives tocentre corridor football, and Magpies had a plan starting from the centre bounces. Karim Kaufmann in the ruck with onballers Sean McQueen, Nathon Moon and Heath Griggs started a full-on attack and gave the forwards opportunities and kicked goals themselves with Nathan Moon kicking them from the centre to set up the Magpies. The Magpies finished the quarter 20 points up. Liam Afflick was relishing being back on his perch at full forward and was cocky, kicking check

side goals. General Dan Tiffins backline of Shane Morritt, Jarid Balchin, Shannon Davidson and the unstoppable Sam Lucas were shutting down Tigers go-to man Barry Round and restricted Tigers’ scoring opportunities. The Tigers hit back hard in the second term with two quick goals. Byron seemed rattled and gave a way some crucial 50m penalties which on the small ground gave away easy goals. Dave Smith, Dane Davidson and Shayne Baldwin regained Magpie ascendancy late in the quarter and got them back on track; both sides kicked five goals in the term and Byron took a 20-point lead into half time. After the main break Tweed hit back with three early goals. Magpies captain coach Mick Young, back from injury, was having none of it and with his

attack on the ball showed his team what the jumper and team meant to him. He had his kicking boots on and kicked a couple of sausage rolls. Tweed went into the three-quarter time break with a slender twopoint lead and it was game on. The final term was fought hard by both sides. The Coopers Magpies again dug deep and came out firing. Shayne Baldwin slammed on two classy goals and Matt Shaw snapped one over his shoulder. Magpie players again gave away 50-metre penalties that resulted in three easy goals to Tweed and they were back in it. The Magpies rallied and got a late steadier from Shannon Davidson, who drifted forward. The Magpies nearly beat themselves but ran out eight-point winners. After the game captain coach Mick Young heaped praise on his group, mainly for their outstanding first quarter where they set the game up but also for their attack on the footy overall, but players giving away costly 50m penalties was stupid. The final score was Byron 15.11–101 and Tweed 14.9–93. Byron Goals went to Nathan Moon 3, Michael Young 3, Shayne Baldwin 3, Liam Afflick 2, Dane Davidson 2, Matt Shaw 1 and Shannon Davidson 1. Best for Byron in a great team effort were Dave Smith, Michael Young, Nathan Moon, Karim Kaufman, Heath Griggs and Shane Morritt The Magpies are sitting second on the ladder with three games left. This week they play Lismore away at 2pm. Go Pies! www.echo.net.au

lence. The club announced that two of their dedicated lifesavers have come home from the awards ceremony held in Evans Head with top honours. Club Captain Casey Brennan has been awarded the coveted Lifesaver of the Year awards while club stalwart Terry Currie, a hard-working training officer, has been recognised as Trainer of the Year. In 2011 Casey became the Club Captain. Casey is not only the youngest captain the club has had, she is also the first female to hold this posi-

her own patrol and filling in on every other patrol at least once. She encouraged our under-18 members to attend carnivals, including Country Titles, and she also attended the State Titles as a First Aid Officer. Casey, who joined Brunswick SLSC as a young nipper, also helped organise the extremely successful Cadet Camp for the under-18s, provided water safety and helped to train the club’s Bronze and SRC squads. In 2008 Casey received a Certificate of Merit from SLSA for bravery in the surf during a rescue in 2006 when she was

She was instrumental in making the Cadet Camp Program happen, which included a weekend camp at the clubhouse and an interstate trip to Dicky Beach SLSC for the under-18s. Terry has mentored future trainers and attended conferences to improve her knowledge and to keep the Bruns club in line with current training policies.

Junior Maggies play mud football

It takes an incredible amount of time and skill to run a surf lifesaving club and a small club like Brunswick relies on a small group of dedicated volunteers to provide all of the training, bookkeeping, fundraising, grant writing and whatever else it takes to keep our community safe while at the beach. Without people like Casey and Terry the club would be struggling to do the job that is expected. Brunswick SLSC is very pleased that these two hard-working members have been honoured at branch level.

After weeks of rain affected training and games across the northern rivers, the Byron Junior Magpies finally hit the ground, or was that splash and slide on the ground, against the Ballina Bombers at their home ground on Sunday. Both the under 9 and 10s played simultaneously and braved the chill and played a tough game. www.echo.net.au

The bombers showed great skill at times, which put the little Maggies through their paces but it was great to see them playing some decent football again, despite the kids and the ball being lost to the mud at times. The U12 fielded a strong side which saw them maintaining their winning streak 8.1–49 to 3.3–21 to remain at the top of the ladder. By the time the U14 teams made their way onto the

ground, it was well and truly churned up and made the ball handling a little tricky but the bombers made their home town proud with a 20-point win. It’s been a hard season this year getting the teams onto the field with the rain and ground closures but, with only four games left, we hope the clouds stay away for the Maggies to host next week’s game at the home ground in Bangalow against Tweed Coast Tigers.

of life and to enjoy the natural beauty of the region. There is a big move from the north and south into this region by people wanting a more sustainable lifestyle. Knowing your market and using the large network of contacts that I made over those formidable years in Sydney has helped me develop a substantial business. Having lived here now for over 20 years, I have developed strong community relationships through sporting associations, through my children and their interests and with local business groups, so I now enjoy a great working and social network. I understand and appreciate the unique vibe of the local community and its needs. I also realised when I started Scott Harvey Real Estate here, that I didn’t need a retail office in the main street to develop a profitable business. I needed to draw on the unique skills my father taught me all those years ago, about the importance of communication and networking, together with the power of the now, amazing, internet, which allows people to be more educated about real estate and the region, while always maintaining honesty and integrity. I also have a fantastic team working with me, who love and respect the qualities of this

<echowebsection=Real Estate>

region and believe in our strong business values. What initially drew you to this area and does it still have those same qualities? What are the major changes in your time here? After selling our real estate and travel business in Sydney, my parents moved up here to the north coast to be close to my brother and the grandchildren. Dad got involved in real estate in the region and I pursued development projects in Sydney. When Dad became ill with Parkinson’s syndrome, my wife and I decided it was time for a sea change, so I could be close to him. I spent years involving myself in local real estate and sporting and community groups enjoying the more relaxed nature of business that was a real contrast to the fast-paced, high pressure of the city. I also said goodbye to wearing a suit to work! After he passed away in 1995, I saw the potential in operating a real estate business from home, drawing on Dad’s inspiration and the large network I had established, while at the same time enjoying a better quality of life with my wife and young family. This region still has all the qualities that we have enjoyed over the years, natural beauty,

a strong sense of community and accessibility. There have been some changes which have impacted on the area, such as an increased population to the region, which has seen the necessity to re-think infrastructural problems to support the influx and of course the building of the new freeway which has opened up the accessibility to the area for Brisbane folk, who are moving here for the lifestyle, while still being able to enjoy the benefit of fast access to the Gold Coast and Brisbane CBD for work. A g row i n g nu mb e r of professional people moving to the area has seen an increase in the cosmopolitan nature of the area. More boutique shops, restaurants, cafes etc to fill their needs. That’s wonderful and has not detracted from the natural beauty of our region. When I first came here we would pack up and go to Broken Head Caravan Park for holidays even though we lived only 15 minutes away. I still walk on Broken Head beach most days. They say the easiest person to sell to is a sales person. Well I am sold on the far north coast! Next week The Echo will profile another Byron Shire realtor.

Byron Bay Property Sales Welcomes Stuart and Donna Stuart Aitken and his personal assistant Donna Gibbs have decided to join the dynamic team at Byron Bay Property Sales. With over 12 years of local sales experience and in excess of 300 successful sales, Stuart can be contacted on his new mobile number:

0419 242 432 “I would have no hesitation in recommending Stuart for selling Real Estate. He was a helpful and intelligent man, who was able to listen to my requests and requirements, take it all in his stride with a smile on his face and get the job done. I have been very impressed with Stuart and I would say that I was one of his tougher clients and whether I called him at 6:30am or 9pm he was always friendly and eager to help. He is a wonderful man to work with. Notably straight to the point, he made the selling of my property a very easy and simple task.” Kindest Regards, Michael Goldberg Sanctuary Byron Bay
