MP weighs into surf school’s tender case against Council Hans Lovejoy
The future of the Byron Bay Surf School is down to the wire after councillors failed to address whether additional licences could be granted for operators at last Thursday’s meeting. The Echo reported on July 31 that the Byron Bay Surf School’s tender application was pipped by a competitor who paid three times what other operators offered. The decision outraged owner/operator Jayme Edwards, who says price was the determining factor and his ten years of local knowledge and flawless safety record were ignored. He now claims his legal advice suggests the request-for-tender process may not even be legal. Currently there are only four commercial licences and two personalised surf instructor spots available for operators to teach surfing in Byron Shire.
MP Page urges review And now MP Don Page says he urges Council to review its decision, which no doubt adds pressure on staff and councillors to come clean
with its tender process. The tender panel that decided Mr Edwards’s fate is not publicly known; however, The Echo understands it to be made up of councillors, staff and members from the Headland Trust and the Marine Park Authority. Nor is the official score-card results publicly known for all submitted applications; however, The Echo has lodged GIPA (Government Information Public Access) application, which is yet to be responded to by Council. When contacted by The Echo to confirm his meeting with Mr Edwards, Mr Page told The Echo, ‘I did meet with Jayme last Friday and I think he presented a very credible case, especially given the criteria upon which the decision was supposed to be based. I would urge Council to revisit their decision as it appears the licence fee (money to Council) played a disproportionate part in the decision about who got the licence. ‘Other important criteria appear to have been downgraded or dismissed.’ Mr Page added he will raise the issue with Council when he receives Mr Edwards’s summarised argument.

Saving the mini whales too
And despite an external review of the tender process being called by Council’s acting manager Ray Darney, it remains unclear if there will be a tender suspension while external investigations are carried out. The winning bid was won by Mojosurf, and they will start operating in September unless Council act before then. Despite Council’s failure to table the tender issue, fellow Byron Bay surf school operators and elite surfing coach Steve Foreman showed support by addressing Council’s public access last Thursday.
Surf schools speak Mr Foreman spoke with bewilderment as to how his bid was also rejected despite operating since 2004 and a flawless 32 years’ track record. He said he helped with the careers of professionals such as Layne Beachley, while also coaching Indigenous kids. ‘We originally designed this policy with Rusty Miller,’ he said. Gary Morgan from Style Surfing suggested to the gallery that the tencontinued on page 3
Councillor hopefuls off and running Michael McDonald
Twenty-nine hopefuls have thrown their hats into the ring for the tough job of Byron Shire councillor, with only eight of them to be elected on September 8. Of the 2008–12 councillors only three are running again – Crs Diane Woods, Basil Cameron and Simon Richardson. Those retiring include long-serving councillors Ross Tucker (1991–2012), mayor Jan Barham (1999–2012), and Richard Staples
(1995–2012), along with Tom Tabart, Tony Heeson and Patrick Morrisey. Running for mayor are perennial candidate Jack Sugarman, Morgan, Crs Woods, Cameron, Richardson, and Sol Ibrahim, the CEO of Northern Rivers Childcare Services. Interestingly, Woods and Ibrahim are sharing the same media minder. The candidates for councillor are running in six groups. Richardson (The Greens, Group C) and Cameron (Our Sustainable Future, Group F) head the two political-party groups
while the groups describing themselves as independent are headed by Woods (Group A), Paul Spooner, general manager of the Byron Community Centre (Group B), Ibrahim (Group D), and transport advocate Karin Kolbe (Group E). Now that Barham and Tucker are out of the running, there is no obvious frontrunner for mayor, though Woods is the natural inheritor of the Tucker mantle and Richardson the Greens’. In the 2008 election Richardson picked

This Sunday’s Whale Song fundraiser boasts an impressive line-up of musicians headed by internationally revered bluesman Ash Grunwald. The artists are putting their music where their mouths are in an effort to raise funds for whale research and continued on page 3 conservation programs in the Pacific.
Program director Olive Andrews says that money raised will directly benefit whales. ‘We are hoping to raise $10,000 at the event, which will support two research programs, one in Palau and the other in Niue as well as other areas in both Australia and New Zealand’. Artists include Jeff Lang, Paul Greene, M Jack Bee and Kyle Lionhart and will be MCd by Myf Warhurst.

Putting all his ‘eggs’ in one basket at the Byron farmers market last week, Greens NSW MP Dr John Kaye said that he wants to see the government pass laws that restrict the amount of chickens allowed per hectare under the free-range banner. Dr Kaye says that the NSW government is failing to protect consumers who don’t want to buy into animal cruelty. ‘National Party members from the north coast region ought to be lobbying hard within the coalition party room to ensure the O’Farrell government supports the Greens’ legislation to protect free-range producers and consumers’, he said.

ternative might have little concern for chicken welfare if they are prepared to house battery hens. ‘Large industrial producers are being given a licence to hijack the term “free-range” and exploit the rise in demand for humanely produced eggs.’
‘Free-range’ term hijacked and exploited Dr Kaye says that the only way to protect the future of the free-range egg industry on the north coast is through legislation. ‘Truth in labelling is really a Nationals issue’, he says. ‘It supports small-scale farmers and businesses and asserts consumer rights. The message is simple – if the label says “free
range” the eggs should be free range. Local Nationals member Don Page should stand up for genuine free-range farmers and consumers by voting for a legislated definition of “free range”.’ The Echo spoke to two egg farmers at the market on the day, both of whom adhered to the very strict rules about the space needed per chook head. Nashua Valley Organics chickens live with about a third of the recommended amount of 1500 fowl neighbours per hectare. ‘I have two hectares and about 1000 chickens so that’s about 500 per hectare,’ said farmer Wally Waldron. ‘Because I am also organic, my chickens are required to have a certain amount of space

Caravan park’s boundaries redefined Last week council resolved to approve the licence renewal applications for the Massey Greene Caravan Park, the Terrace Reserve Caravan Park and the Ferry Reserve Caravan Park, subject to compliance with certain provisions in of the Local Government Act. One of the main points of contention in the applications was the area along the river.

Byron Beach Café’s new look
Council review hearing Monday An independent review of local government is to sit in Ballina, Monday August 13, allowing councils from around the region to put forward their ideas. Tweed Council has already voted on an options paper that would see Byron Shire Council swallowed up by other local shires.
Tweed Council wants to amalgamate
Ben and Belinda Kirkwood say that their great staff were a big part in helping them achieve such fantastic results in the refurbishment of the Beach Café, which re-opened Monday. It’s a complete makeover, including a new menu by head chef Paul Wrightson. Mr Kirkwood says, ‘Our desire is to strike a balance between being contemporary and also maintaining our soul of restaurant style with café simplicity.’ The multi-award-winning café is located at Clarkes Beach. Photo Eve Jeffery
Byron councillors have vehemently opposed the plan. But all topics covering council sustainability are up for discussion and there is an option for the public to have their say in the afternoon session. Local government minister Don Page said part of the motivation for the review was that ‘half of the councils in NSW are really struggling financially,’ implying that amalgamation was the real driver behind the review.
MP Page weighs into Council’s tender process continued from page 1
der applications were not read correctly by councillors, while Dean Johnston, owner of Black Dog Surfing, asked councillors, ‘Why did it only take four minutes to decide this? Where was the cross-reference?’ Mojosurf ’s Nathan Folkes told The Echo, ‘We really need to be careful and address the real issues here and not go on a turkey hunt and start pointing the finger at Council, councillors, operators, safety and money.
Meeting between all parties proposed ‘We may just need to be committed to finding a better way with all the energy that is now being thrown around at the subject. Mojosurf are committed to working with all parties to create a best-practice
platform for activity operators, communities, the tourism industry and tourist.’ Mr Folkes also proposes a meeting between all parties, ‘Where we look at the health of the tourism industry, the challenges to activity operators in NSW not just in surfing, the current decision and what can be done about it and looking toward a best practice industry platform for the future.’
Show of unity Byron Bay Surf School owner Jayme Edwards told The Echo, ‘Watching the existing Byron Bay surf school operators stand together at Council on Thursday and speak their minds about this dubious request-for-tender process was a great show of unity, and demonstrated our deep concerns about a system which can sim-

ply wipe out our businesses and livelihoods and raise fears about who will be next. ‘The applause after each operator’s address showed the appreciation from the gallery for our unjust situation. ‘It was disappointing then – and typical of councillors’ apathy – that after hearing all we had to say about this questionable tender process, that they had the chance to do something about it and did nothing. ‘And councillors were made aware of the problems already six weeks ago. Cr Simon Richardson had planned to move an urgency motion to bring action to the issue, but the general meeting – conveniently – ran out of time. He now plans to table a motion for Council’s next general meeting on August 30. ‘He must keep his word.
‘An independent review of the request-for-tender process is underway by the Byron Shire Council, but again Council hasn’t made transparent who, when and what exactly it will achieve, giving us reason to believe it’s a token effort.’ Mr Edwards added that after meeting with Mr Page on Friday, Mr Page was ‘not impressed with Council’s process and may intervene. He is also considering overruling Council and issuing a stay of procedings for myself and the other aggrieved operator, Steve Foreman, to allow us to continue to operate while the official council review is underway. ‘This is the usual process in predicaments like this, one which the Byron Shire Council acting general manager, Ray Darney, refuses to concede.’ Q See editorial page 12

Mayoral candidates Q&A Cr Diane Woods, Jack Sugarman, Cr Basil Cameron, Cr Simon Richardson, Sol Ibrahim and Morgan Hans Lovejoy
A motion passed at Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Council meeting, penned by Cr Basil Cameron, sent a clear message to the state government over its cost cutting and how transfer of responsibilities adds pressure to local government. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Independent local government review panelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; motion also does not support the forced amalgamation of local government and asks the state to support â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;councils to seek alternative revenues which would facilitate the ability of tourist visitors to make contributions to infrastructure support.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; In light of this, The Echo asked mayoral hopefuls their position. Are you for or against forced amalgamations?
Cr Diane Woods: I am against forced amalgamations, as I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most effective way for us to deal with our financial issues, and will only result in our Shire losing the character that we have established. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to approach the problem from a more creative angle. Jack Sugarman: I will support compulsory council amalgamations with conditions. Cr Basil Cameron: I am opposed to forced amalgamations. Rate pegging, equity of Financial Assistance Grants, cost shifting, alternative revenues and infrastructure support are all issues that need addressing before amalgamations, otherwise we risk creating existing problems on a larger scale. Cr Simon Richardson: Strongly against. Sol Ibrahim: I am against forced council amalgamations. To promote a rational discussion on this issue, I think it is important to note that the terms of reference for the Local Government Review Panel are to investigate: barriers and incentives to encourage voluntary boundary changes. Morgan: I am totally opposed to amalgamation of councils â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to the point that I would incite secession from the state of New South Wales if the state insisted on an amalgamation. A local government area of 566 square kilometres is large enough â&#x20AC;&#x201C; too large really. Do you believe that there are â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;additional pressures on local government imposed by state government cost cutting and responsibility transfer?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; If so, what is achievable apart from just letting the state government know councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s position?
Morgan: The state has not only transferred state responsibilities to local government, www.echo.net.au
the state has further exasperated funding problems by â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;raping and pillagingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the limited resources previously controlled by local government (such as caravan park assets). Whingeing to the state government is pointless â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they do not care. The only available option is to challenge the right of the state to rip previously council controlled assets, such as caravan parks that were used as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;alternative accommodationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for local residents â&#x20AC;&#x201C; creating homelessness, while failing to meet the taxpayer funded â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;duty of careâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of the state to provide adequate state housing, transport, hospitals etc. It is also possible to legally challenge the state confiscation of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Crown Landâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;; as to the anachronism of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Crown Landâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;; and breaching the principles of democracy â&#x20AC;&#x201C; committing acts that are contrary to the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;will of the peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Cr Basil Cameron: Yes, and add in cost shifting and revenue transfers: Reform of rate pegging especially to acknowledge the higher demand for infrastructure development and support in coastal shires. A new formula for determining a more equitable distribution of Financial Assistance Grants. In ten years, Byron Shire received a total of $22 million, which was $50 million less than the northern rivers shire receiving the most over the ten years (Richmond Valley). Better infrastructure provision and support from state and federal governments. Full funding for responsibility transfers. Cr Diane Woods: Every transfer of responsibility from state government to council has a cost attached, and council is often expected to pick up the tab. This creates an unsustainable future unless we are fully funded for the transfer of services. Therefore, councils who are opposed to amalgamations need to lobby hard the federal and state governments for more direct funding, or larger grants. We cannot continue to be burdened with provision of more and more services at the same rate income. It is not fair to our community and prevents us from being able to deliver even core services. As mayor I will do an audit of all costs that have been transferred under the radar to the council and I will send the invoices to the state government for reimbursement. Cr Simon Richardson: Yes, independent studies undertaken by the ALGA and NSW LGSA in 2004/05 found that the average cost shifting impact on councils is seven per cent of total revenue which for Byron amounts to approx $4m per annum. The state government taking some caravan parks from councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsibility has also cost council millions

BayFMâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s holiday prize Love Food, Hate Waste Love Food, Hate Waste is a worldwide movement aimed at reducing the amount of food wasted by households. A series of free workshops will be run in the northern rivers region, with the first being held on Wednesday August 29 in Bangalow, followed by Tweed Heads and Murwillumbah.
Reducing food waste

Pictured are some of the BayFM team getting into the spirit of this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major subscriber prize: a holiday and cruise package in the Whitsundays for four people for one week, sponsored by Adventure Travelbugs. A new subscriber category has also been introduced for bands and musician, says BayFM pres-
ident Quentin Watts. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bands and musicians who subscribe during August will go into a special draw to win a tailor-made sponsorship package from BayFM, as well as being entered into draws during the major subscriber drive.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Check out www.bayfm.org or call 6680 7999.
Well-known â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Farm to Forkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; chef and recipe writer, Alison Drover, will host the events. Alison is passionate about cooking delicious meals using leftover ingredients. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Food is wasted because we buy too much, cook too much, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t store food correctly and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use leftovers,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; says Alison. Alison will provide simple, practical advice on how to reduce your weekly shop and will have you cooking up delicious meals from ingredients lingering in the fridge or cupboard. She will give hands-on dem-
onstrations and there will be plenty of delicious food to sample. A facebook page is also established. Visit www.facebook. com/LoveFoodHateWasteNorthernRivers. Love Food, Hate Waste is made possible through NSW government and ACE community colleges funding, and is in partnership with Byron and Murwillumbah community colleges. To enrol for the Bangalow event, call Byron Community College on 6684 3374.

ing of this particular festival as part of our applicationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Further to this, we also saw the potential to provide a venue/space that gave a reasonable degree of ongoing event certainty to help smaller startup cultural events. There is no other approved venue that caters to these smaller events and our location, still feeding into the Byron township, we think is advantageous. Byron Council has debated their events policy and voiced their support for smaller cultural events, which is what we seek to provide a home for.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; But Ms Walker says that SOS are concerned about the lack of community consultation
over the issue. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The â&#x20AC;&#x153;community consultationâ&#x20AC;? carried out by Byron Events consisted of 1000 leaflets distributed over the area of Ewingsdale, Sunrise Beach and the Arts and Industry Estate and DAs were received by only some residents of Belongil Crescent, leaving the majority of Sunrise residents completely unaware of the proposals.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Mr Holmes said, however, that apart from the leaflets there was information online. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We wanted to seek feedback at that early stage. We also set up a website, which was listed on the flyer. We have kept this updated as we move forward. We have received some feedback
from local residents. While we have received a lot of support for the proposal, a couple of local residents have expressed concern regarding traffic in the local area.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; He added that the SOS group had not made contact with him or his company.

Ballina cops face corruption charges Staff reporters
Three Ballina police officers have escaped prosecution for perjury but only because there is a Police Integrity Commission (PIC) corruption investigation proceeding into their actions. On making the announcement yesterday, magistrate David Heilpern also released to the media graphic CCTV footage clearly showing three officers bashing then-22-year-old Corey Barker in a cell at Ballina police station in January last year. The officers subsequently sought to charge Barker, claim-
ing he had attempted to attack them. At the trial, one of them said that CCTV footage of the incident was damaged and couldn’t be played. But when the tape was restored it showed a very different set of events than was claimed in the officers’ evidence. It appears to show senior constable David Hill punching Mr Barker in the face, senior constable Ryan Eckersley kicking him in the head while he was on the ground, and constable Lee Walmsley kneeing him in the side, also while on the ground. The PIC will investigate al-
legations of assault, conspiracy to pervert the course of justice, perjury and tampering with evidence against the three officers. Magistrate Heilpern said in his judgment it was ‘crystal clear that the defendant at no time punched Senior Constable Hill in the nose as described’.
Lying under oath He said that Hill and Eckersley had colluded before giving evidence, described the damage to the CCTV footage as ‘suspicious’ and said the officers had ‘debased the administration of justice’.
‘It was as though there were two parallel universes in court: the imaginary one of Senior Constable Hill, and the real one that the rest of us – including the prosecutor – could see,’ the magistrate is reported as saying by smh.com.au. The Echo understands two of the three were still working on limited duties at Ballina up until last month, when the magistrate accused them of lying under oath. CCTV footage of three officers bashing Corey Barker in a Ballina police cell can be viewed at www.echonetdaily.net.au.

Byronians packed out Ewingsdale Hall on Sunday night when Samah Sabawi flew up from Melbourne to address the BDS conference on strategies and Palestinian history. The BDS campaign (Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions) is a global movement that highlights human-rights issues for Palestine. Palestinian Samah, pictured, is a playwright, author and writer with family living in Gaza. The night ended with a reading of Samah’s moving
poems and a performance of the YouTube-viewable ‘Ghosts of Deir Yassin’ by musician Phil Monsour.
Council CSG stand ‘legal’ The Northern Rivers Regional Organisation of Councils (NOROC) has says its members’ opposition to coal-seam gas may be valid, according to legal advice the organisation has received. NOROC commissioned the advice from law firm Marylou
Potts earlier this year, and have released the advice to the public. It appears councils have rights to prevent miners using councilowned roads under provisions of the state Petroleum (Onshore) Act and the Roads Act. Projects declared ‘state significant’ would not apply, however. www.echo.net.au

The real problem about electricity prices, she averred, was not the carbon tax; this made up less than ten per cent of the rises, and was in any case covered by her compensation package. The real problem was the power companies themselves, who had gold-plated the system at public expense. Oh no it wasn’t, screamed Abbott, it was the carbon tax, it was all the carbon tax, it was nothing but the carbon tax.

Also offering fresh breath assessments, tooth whitening, mouth guards, and sports guards, Sarah will be a great asset to our practice.
she should talk to the Greens; after all, they are the ones she chose as partners. Gillard, of course, says that she has done everything possible to reach a compromise, and the Houston enquiry, expert, apolitical and non-partisan, should be taken seriously and its basic recommendations followed. And if Abbott refuses even to consider them, then the stalemate is his fault. The government is indeed elected to govern: it cannot and should not hand over its duty to make policy to a stubborn and intransigent opposition. In purely political terms she has made some progress; from overwhelmingly blaming the government for the impasse, the public seems to be coming to the view that they are all behaving like spoiled kids: a plague on both their houses. But as the boats keep coming and the casualties inexorably mount, the pressure will come back on the government. And the great god Newspoll, the alpha and the omega, the measure of all things, will speak its curses. Incidentally Abbott, it should be noted, has, like Gillard, spent the last few days out of it all doing good works at the Aboriginal outstation at Aurukun; the opposition’s running on the issue has been made by the odious Scott Morrison. Which leads to the question: why are all Liberal immigration ministers so unremittingly horrible? Phillip Ruddock, Kevin Andrews, Scott Morrison – does the job make them that way or is it something genetic that attracts them to it? Yet another chicken and egg dilemma for students of political science. A PhD surely beckons.
A clear tactical win for Gillard, but there is a long way to go in this battle. To declare victory, she will have to produce results; to bring down, or at least contain the electricity price increases already in the system. If she can’t, her failure will inevitably be portrayed as another cruel hoax, another betrayal of traditional Labor supporters by an untrustworthy and uncaring prime minister. And the other field of conflict this week is going to be equally hard to handle. The asylum seeker standoff has been ratcheted up a notch or two by the report of the Houston enquiry, but the political question remains the same: who is going to be stuck with the blame? Abbott’s position remains fixed and unalterable: the government is elected to govern, so it is the government’s responsibility to find a solution. The fact that he remains an immovable obstruction to Q See Mungo live at everything it wants to do is irrelevant; that’s his job. If Gillard wants to make progress, www.echonetdaily.net.au

The power companies had indeed been gouging the public – under their Labor predecessors, of course, and Gillard had done nothing about it then, but hey, perhaps something should be done about it now.

Do the right thing by our hospital Q All
this talk about the hospital. Imagine you arrive with a burst appendix and Chris Crawford is the only person available. What? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a doctor. No. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just some guy who gets a big bonus if he can cut costs. Oh, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s he doing in charge of health then? But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay, Doctor Rosie whoever is here. But wait, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knock-off time, she has to go home. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just like the plumber and carpenter. Only works to hours. Lucky we have the TV thing. Quick, turn that on.

Mullumbimby Open letter to local health board: at the hospital meeting in Mullumbimby on August 2 the chair of the local health board (Ms Bridgett) said she was concerned at the alarm that had been raised by the proposal to replace the Mullumbimby ED night shift doctor with telehealth.

Q
North Byron concerns Residents of Sunrise Beach are not too happy about the plans put forward by North Byron Events, which proposes holding eight â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;low-key eventsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; per year. After trying to slog through the massive report of details at the council it seems quite obvious that these events will be anything but low key. In fact Byron Events, owned by coalmining tycoon Brian Flannery, is already advertising on their website that the site is suitable for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Large Scale Events & Festivalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The plan is to build two stages which will operate simultaneously with music amplified through sub-woofers. Campsites and car parks for up to 3,000 attendees per day will be created, leaving a barrier of only 150 metres from the nearest residents. A request for a trial period of a phenomenal ten years (80 events) has been made so that events can proceed â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;... without the normal obstaclesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Community consultationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; carried out by Byron Events consisted of 1,000 leaflets distributed over the area of Ew-

losing the night-shift doctor. Our representatives at all three levels of government are also concerned and have expressed this either by public statement or their support for the motions put on the night. Ms Bridgett has said on a previous occasion (email 15/6/2012): â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The proposal for nurses to cover the night ED shift at Mullumbimby with backup support from Tweed ED cannot go ahead without the consent of the nurses and that the health service will continue to pay a medical officer to cover the shift.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The first part of this statement was repeated last Thursday night. Just prior to Ms Bridgett, Nola Scilinato, speaking for our nurses said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The nurses donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t support the removal of the doctor from the night shift in ED. They have serious concerns about the ability to provide safe patient care should that arrangement go ahead.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Since the removal of the night-shift doctors is the stated aim of the proposal and the nurses donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t support that removal, the chair of the board could have reaffirmed, then and there, that the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;doctor-re-
movalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; part of the proposal was defeated and that the health service would continue to pay for a night-shift doctor. That didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen and instead Mr Crawford went on to attempt to build a case for the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;doctor-removalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The community, once more unanimously, rejected the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;doctor-removalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; part of the proposal. The community now seeks a public statement from the board which clearly answers the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concerns. If the nurses are accorded a right of veto, doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the community, the subjects to be most affected by the removal of the nightshift doctor, have equally as much right of veto?
ingsdale, Sunrise Beach and the Arts and Industry Estate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and DAs were received by only some residents of Belongil Crescent â&#x20AC;&#x201C; leaving the majority of Sunrise residents completely unaware of the proposals. With the precedent being set of other festivals growing in number and size once DAs have been accepted it is our strong concern that the word â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;cultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is being used as a lever to open the door for yet more large-impact events in the Byron Shire. We (and the koalas) donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the amenity of our neighbourhood to be destroyed so that promoters can line their pockets with the tourist dollar.

would be any good for me as you would need at least two nurses to be able to look after me as well as a Dr Liz Elliot who was on duty. She was very, very efficient in her diagnosis and treatment of me. I was kept in Mullum Hospital till Tuesday when a Dr Damien Ford checked me out and decided I needed to be in Tweed Hospital as my condition had seriously worsened. The doctors treated me there as well and I spent ten days all up in both hospitals. So, Mr Crawford, my point is there is no way you can take our doctors from Mullumbimby hospital of a night and replace them with a video hookup (what a joke). To all the politicians and anyone else who wants to get rid of our night doctors, please think again and let them stay. Also it would be great if you would reopen the kitchens at both hospitals and bring back nice fresh food again instead of food cooked in Casino. To our politicians: please get off your arses and do the right thing by the people of this area.

Election fever keeps on: Q Four years ago, nine good people were elected by their community to the positions of councillor and mayor of Byron Shire. They have studied, deliberated and acted on a myriad of issues, great and small, for long hours with little reward, stewarding our shire through a tumultuous time with the invaluable guidance and assistance from our council staff. A big thanks to those retiring and to those who will continue to share their knowledge and experience through the next four years. As a resident of the north of the Shire for nine years, I will be running for councillor alongside deputy mayor Basil Cameron in a bid to better represent my community at Council. We are a community that has not been listened to, and has been severely let down by the NSW Department of Planning regarding the populist approval of the North Byron Parklands development. The north of our Shire needs a voice. I will listen and speak out to make sure our community is heard and our wishes are understood. My recent involvement with local associations and groups will, I hope, support my pledge to serve my community.
Paul Arrowsmith
Our Sustainable Future Q I
used to vote Green. Until the cause was hijacked by vainglorious politicians with no interest in genuine green politics. Emotional, reactionary tree-huggers, using environmental goodwill to climb the ego-driven political ladder. For all you would-be leaders asking for our vote, I have a question: can we change the official attitude about trees? We live out in the hills surrounded by millions – yes, millions – of trees. Most of them weren’t here before we came. To manage our trees we need firetrails and usable house sites, so occasionally we need to drop some trees. Big deal. Even Council needs to chop down the odd tree. So can we start by changing the title of the job from the emotive ‘ Tree Preservation Officer’ to the more functional ‘Tree Management Officer’? It’s time to allow people to reasonably manage rural tree stocks without punitive bureaucratic interference by those who’ve never lived in the bush. So if you’re running for the Greens, don’t just posture about it – offer us some useful strategies to help care for our land. And while I’m on the subject – Council stopped funding maintenance of the Main Arm firetrail decades ago. After the wettest two years on record, when the ground dries out there’s the potential for the biggest bushfires since 1947. Hey,
<echowebsection=Letters>
councillors – spare a thought for those of us living in the hills. Can you please give back our firetrails? Let us live in the bush if we want to. W Boyle
Durrumbul Q The Woolworths results are in. Mullumbimby is booming, my toilet is working and my kids aren’t smoking crack. Ms Lilly has moved on to whatever it is this week. The green mayor left her legacy, an overpriced patch of land at the end of the Woolies car park. Maybe we could turn it into a multistorey parking station because there’s nowhere else to park in Mullum. The important part now is to clearly point out just how completely wrong the ideological rage-against-the-machiners got it. It’s important because this is the same ideology as our Green council. This is why all the issues that frustrated everyone six years ago are still there, except we have more potholes and cycleways now. I think we all agree we don’t want Snidely Whiplash the developer as mayor, but equally we can’t afford to have serial protesters running the Shire. The whole Green thing has been really sweet. I suspect deep down we all want to hold hands and stop making bombs. However, the time has come to choose some people who can actually get stuff done.
market lands. The Mullumbimby District Neighbourhood Centre (MDNC) operates on Crown land, but is not a trust controlled by Council. Unlike the Byron Community Centre, MDNC do not rely on any commercial activity such as markets for income. Yet the rental assessment by Crown Lands is on the basis of a ‘business’ use. To secure the tenancy of the MDNC and the important community services delivered by the centre, Council has agreed to meet the additional costs of $14,650. This represents a transfer of ratepayer funds to the state government that would otherwise be available for services delivered by Council. The lesson is obvious. If Council loses control of market lands, it will be Crown Lands that runs future tenders and they will be based on a ‘business’ rather than ‘community’ use. Clearly this would be detrimental to the interests of residents and the community services sector. We must work together as a community to find solutions. Feelgood slogans and blaming Council will only hasten the loss of community-controlled lands. I have the community interest at heart and am across the detail necessary to protect these important community assets. Cr Basil Cameron

And please ask the festival folk whether they’ll run events that go against the science. On hiring a Greens party stooge as GM: now that’s a distorted interpretation of my wish. Firstly, there aren’t any. Secondly, my letter was about using the legitimate local government process to get the best result for this Shire. How about a GM on a shorter-term contract with performance-based extensions (like in the corporate world)? The issue in Mullumbimby was not about Woolworths, it was about the breach in our planning rules which said quite precisely keep Mullum’s shopping precinct where it is. Thanks to Mallams, Woolies and the then NSW Labor government, it now sprawls out into ‘the suburbs’. Our onsite sewage rules said you need big land areas to dispose of sewage on boggy clay soils. Unfortunately greed doesn’t respect rules. On the causeway upgrade at Main Arm: the ‘old’ council voted 6–3 last week not to defend against a Land & Environment Court case scrapping consent conditions that require the upgrade before new lots can be released there. About 150 written submissions opposed scrapping the condition when it came to Council in June. I have asked current councillors to review their stance and consider rescinding that resolution. If I’m elected, I’ll listen to residents and landholders in the Shire. I’ll re-present their views. If the rules or logic say that I can’t, I’ll explain why and I’ll question those rules. Duncan Dey
Greens candidate Q Has anyone ever found out just how much the anti-Woolworths Mullumbimby campaign cost this community? You drive into Mullumbimby and there it is, a far better building than what was the old Mallam’s supermarket. Unbelievably, it is full of Mullum residents shopping there, buying their groceries and grog and seemingly unperturbed. Who would have thought it, after all we were told how it would be disowned by locals? Even though the land and rezoning and store project itself had been approved by the state government, our council racked up over half a million dollars in legal bills fighting this store on behalf of a small group led by Deborah Lilly, Duncan Dey and the Mullumbimby Community Action Group. Even worse, at the behest of Duncan Dey and MCAN, Council was conned into buying the old Telstra site next
www.echo.net.au
door, just to stop Woolies using it. In February 2008, Council paid $461,000 for this derelict piece of land and it has lain vacant ever since, dormant and with no apparent commercial use. With holding charges, this asset, if you could call it one, is sitting on Council’s books today at around $600,000. Without counting staff time, if you add our legal bills and the cost of the Telstra site, what you have is a gross waste of ratepayers funds to the tune of around $1.2million. Perhaps the money could have been better spent on footpaths, lighting and repairing the roads in Ocean Shores! Also, it cannot be used for residential purposes as the ground is contaminated and would require a substantial amount of money to ameliorate it. MCAN, Greens, it seems that they are indistinguishable. Greens candidate Duncan Dey now wants to move back onto Council. The lawyers will be very pleased and will be breaking out the champagne in Phillip Street. Donna Hammond
Group A candidate Q I owe my supporters an explanation as to why my name is not on the list of council candidates, especially after all my statements to the effect of ‘When I’m mayor…’ Those statements were partly to intimidate opponents within the council staff who were trying to intimidate me, and partly to paint myself into a corner so I’d just have to run. I knew that when it came to crunch time my abhorrence of the boring ugliness of local politics would turn me off. Ruck Tosser intimated last year that I wouldn’t run, knowing that I’m a sprinter, not a marathon man. What he didn’t know – and neither did I – was that just last month I’d receive a medical reminder that I ain’t no spring chicken anymore, that the body is showing signs of stress, that I need to pull up. I’ve been on the frontline for four years (in this most recent burst) fighting council senior staff and a majority of councillors, who have thrown everything they could at me. Running on anger is not good for one’s health, especially as I have enough to cope with merely running my Coorabell property. In any case I had zero chance of becoming mayor. Only five per cent to ten per cent of the population is ever aware of what’s going on and the rest just coast by on impressions, prejudice or hope. Even if I’d got the highest primary vote the ambitious Basil Cameron wouldn’t have given me preferences, while Simon Richardson
probably wouldn’t have been tactically allowed by the Greens organisation to give me preferences either. Even as recently as two weeks ago I was trying to persuade myself that I need to be in there to be involved in the selection of the next GM, which is the single most important decision a council ever makes. When I finally admitted to myself that I wasn’t going to do it I felt this immense weight lift off my shoulders, followed by several days of exhaustion as my body and mind adapted back to more normal levels of functioning. If only I wasn’t such a stresser. Of course, I’ll still be around to keep an eye on things and I’d like to organise some mentoring for the new councillors. That’s basically what I’ve been trying to do over the past four years, and I’ll be leaning on Crs Staples and Tabart to organise some sessions prior to each council meeting so that particular items on the agenda can be discussed. It would be a great shame to just lose all that knowledge and experience, but that is what happens in local government. Every four years a new batch of well-meaning suckers step forward and have to start from zero. By contrast the staff knowledge is cumulative; not only do they control the flow of information but they know what tactics work on what types of personality and how their individual foibles can be exploited.
We pride ourselves on our relaxed yet vibrant communities. Local council is the only tier of government that is close enough to understand what is really going on, and can champion for services and infrastructure for residents. Karin Kolbe
Group E candidate Q Apparently the letter regarding the cartoon political statement accompanying the advertisement for the Rails gave some citizens the false impression that one is opposed to large-scale music festivals. Given the fact that my entire life has been a blur of gigs and music festivals, I cannot comprehend anyone forming the opinion that, if elected mayor, one would attempt to ‘stop the music’. The letter was merely one exercising my right to express the fact that I found the Rails cartoon offensively inaccurate – as the cartoon effectively implied that Byron Bay local residents (including myself) do not exist and that the village of Byron Bay is nothing more than a licensed venue. Should one be elected the mayor of Byron Shire, I would like to ensure that the music continues – within the limits of realistic expectations in relation

Coorabell Q Last
week we learned that our Commonwealth grants decreased by $132,411. This is partially attributed to our population rising less than expected. Between 2006 and 2011 Byron Shire’s population as a whole rose by only 1.5 per cent (from 2006 and 2011 ABS census figures). But the devil is in the detail: Byron Bay’s population actually decreased by 12 per cent. This was offset by rises in Bangalow eight per cent, rural areas six per cent, Suffolk Park six per cent and Ocean Shores four per cent. Brunswick Heads and Mullum were just under 1.5 per cent. So what is going on in Byron Bay? Were lots of people away and not counted in the census? Are more houses being used for holiday rentals? Are more houses empty as the rents are unaffordable? A decreasing population means reduced grant allocations and funding for services like medical. A decreasing population also means less people to run community organisations, like sports teams. The flipside is places with increasing populations see increasing pressure on infrastructure and services. <echowebsection=Letters>

I know north would be totally alien to a lot of us who want peace and quiet. So if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s south how far â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tassie? Yeah, I know thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting a bit extreme hey, but good for a visit. Yes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biting at me for a while now, was the Battle for Byron worth it? Did we hold off Club Med for something worse? Makes me wonder after living in and out of the shire these last 32 years, what a change, definitely not the seachange I first had, folks. Thank you, Morgan.
majority, not just the Greens) failed to give him support for the new five-year term he had sought. Geoff has also clutched at the dodgy GM report on the state caravan park grab â&#x20AC;&#x201C; try and sell that to the residents of Brunswick Heads, including mayoral candidate Diane Woods. On the matter of his great green conspiracy to save the whales and let the potholes deepen (plotted by the recruitment of a crypto-green GM), I should mention that infrastructure maintenance is a problem for the entire NSW local government sector and the catch is funding, not policy. Otherwise we are quite proud of our record of concern over matters beyond
roads, rates and rubbish but think that in the circumstances we have done pretty well here as well. Also Geoff is not to know that the Greens councillors attempted to arrange for the recruitment of an experienced, temporary (up to one year) GM to get the council back on track while the new councillors found their feet before choosing a new GM â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this initiative was voted down by the non-green majority. The old dead moggy of political parties in local government was predictably given its usual airing by Geoff and in the Rails pub cartoon. (Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t publican Tom Mooney the ALPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last local member?) Councillors are politicians;
like it or not, NSW councils are populated by parties either up front or hiding as independents. Greens councillors are expected to observe the partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four principles (grassroots democracy, peace and non-violence, social and economic justice, ecological sustainability) but (unlike others) are otherwise free to exercise independent judgment (check the voting record). Even mayoral hopeful Basil Cameron is standing for registered party Our Sustainable Future, an entity invented by former councillor Hugh Ermacora some years ago and disinterred for each council poll.
Why on earth is a so-called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;caringâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; community encouraging such blatant disregard for the impacts on health let alone any considerations as regards public order? These days our politicians are very quick to rush to nanny-state legislation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with the attendant bureaucratic bullying that follows for non-compliance. What is so sacred about selling alcohol without food that it has not only been left unscathed for more than 200 years but has actually been encouraged to expand, extend and exacerbate social and health problems?

was very hard. When it comes to alcohol most people are able to take it or leave it, but for me I have a mind that tells me that must have a drink, and I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop once I start. I felt that for whatever reason (partying with friends, relaxing after work, escaping family stress or financial problems) that I had to drink to get through it. I would tell myself that this time it would be different, that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have just a few. And despite knowing it would most likely end badly, I drank anyway. My last drink took me to the hospital. I felt trapped, confused and deeply disconnected. But I found that there are people who felt just like me, and they had found a way to live not just a normal life, but a happy one. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called Alcoholics Anonymous. There are countless thousands of members of AA in over 180 countries. In NSW alone there are hundreds and hundreds of meetings throughout the state. And while everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drinking history is different, we all share the same problem: we wanted to stop drinking, but we couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stay stopped on our own. In AA there are no fees to pay, no tests to take, and no past too good or bad to exclude you. All you need is a desire to stop drinking. From September 21 to 23 thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be a NSW Young People in Alcoholics Anonymous Convention in North Sydney. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a convention designed for those youngin-years, young-at-heart, and young-in-sobriety but everyone with a desire to stop drinking is welcomed For more information about AA or details on meetings call 1300 22 22 22, or visitwww.alcoholicsanonyous.org.au. If you would like to talk to someone about the convention, please call 0459 106 056 or go to www.newypaa.org.au.

16 August 14, 2012 The Byron Shire Echo
On its front page (7/8/12) The Echo, perhaps unwittingly, put its finger on a major problem in Byron Bay. Lawyer turned crime writer Shamini Flint, in town from overseas for the Writersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Festival, said she was shocked that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get food after 10pmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;Ś but â&#x20AC;Ś â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Luckily you can still get a beer!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Quite apart from any other consideration for a so-called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;international destinationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, two, three, four, five etc hours is a very long time to spend drinking without food â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially for high-energy young people.
CSG cred Thanks to a motion from the incumbent deputy mayor Basil Cameron, Byron Shire Council voted on June 28 to extend its moratorium on coal-seam gas mining in Byron Shire. This was good to see, as there has been little organised opposition in Byron Shire to support the magnificent campaign based in Lismore, and to the north in the Tweed. Just why is open to dry interpretation, but Byron Shire does have existing licences and applica-

This sporting life Finally there has been an improvement to the Beech Drive sporting fields at Suffolk Park. A sign has been erected with the words â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Playing Fieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. While the new sign may resolve the confusion as to why there are soccer goals at each end of a cow paddock, it would be wonderful to see some resources allocated towards seating and shelter, more bins, more frequent emptying of bins and maintenance of the toilet facilities.

Register to have your say against a new 1,000 square foot Dan Murphyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s under the Dendy where our kids hang out. This is the only opportunity to have your voice heard. The shops around the Dendy will suffer too as Byron slides further into its booze-town image. We need a better calibre of visitors. Not just Woolies and booze buyers!

A Spanish fly on the wall amid wind-driven scifi beauty
toss the brave around in la Plaza del Toros. Back to the Madrid: so they’re cutting coal subsidies. Good. They should be. Especially in Spain, the world’s biggest wind power producer. Radiating out along the highways, turbines lend the wheat fields a stark
sci-fi beauty. Due to scale and technological advances, the cost of wind power has just slipped below the cost of coal (9.68c/ kWh versus coal’s 9.96c/kWh).* However, cutting subsidies to dinosaur industries is one thing and leaving workers in the lurch is another. The government has just secured a $112 billion bailout of Spanish banks, but with unemployment heading for 25 per cent nationwide, protesters argue that bankers are being favoured over workers. Most of Madrid is behind the protesters. I know this because a taxi driver told me. Madrid embodies the phrase ‘the built environment,’ a term I never understood in Australia, with our cities perched like an insect on the end of a
stick. Located in the middle of a blindingly hot plain, it somehow makes you feel like you’re living in a forest, or a canyon. I was recently in a canyon, on Spain’s northern border at the foot of the Pyrenees. Beneath the typically photogenic town of Rodellar (crumbling church, cobblestoned streets, stone houses with wooden shutters) a subterranean stream emerges, its ice-green waters winding past limestone cliffs, making it a canyoning, rock-climbing and skinny dipping paradise. Okay, it’s time for me to talk about wine and cheese like any good travel writer. It’s great. Happy now?

I love Madrid. A string quartet has stopped me in my tracks on Calle de San Offre in the Cuenca district. I was on my way to a café but now I’m sitting on the flagstones; you can do that here, or at least you feel you can after dancing until dawn three nights in a row. I’m not a gusher btw – I hated Barcelona, every Gaudi pirouetted-column and gothicly twisted street of it. Madrid is real, full of real people doing real things. The last two days have seen militant clashes between protesters and police over the slashing of coal industry subsidies. Miners walked up to 280km to Madrid, arrived Wednesday and started raising hell.

We can now fully utilise the talented parents and community members we have at our disposal to increase the range and number of instrumental music, bands and performance-related music projects.

QUALITY over quantityâ&#x20AC;Ś Despite all the extra funding from the Commonwealth government, we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t try to ďŹ t in more kids; we tried to ďŹ t in more resources and learning experiences because this school has always been about quality over quantity. Every kid matters and we do everything we can to help them fully realise their potential and to develop a real and positive sense of self before they go to high school. More than the sum of its partsâ&#x20AC;Ś Individually each part of our new building is a revelation, but together they are much more than a sum of the parts. When you see it all together with our kids, parents and staff using it for its intended educational purposes you will see great things happening. Here at BCPS the kids can be themselves because we have the space and environment that caters for them, encourages them and provides for them. Send your child to our school and they might just ďŹ nd their passions, strengths and talents too.

SYCHOLOGIST AND AUTHOR DENISE GREENAWAY HAS JUST RELEASED HER FIRST BOOK FINDING ARTEMISIA: A JOURNEY INTO ANCIENT WOMENâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BUSINESS. FOR THE AUTHOR ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S A BRINGING TOGETHER OF TWO WORLDS. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I WANTED TO SHOW IN MY BOOK THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WOMEN IN MODERN SOCIETY AND THE WAY WE ENTER WOMANHOOD, COMPARED TO THE TRADITIONAL WAY OF NURTURING GIRLS INTO WOMANHOOD AND NURTURING MOTHERS AS TRADITIONAL ELDERS OF THEIR SOCIETY.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;
Denise ended up publishing with American printing house Balboa, a division of Hay House, an American publisher of inspirational fiction. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I had tried a few Australian publishers and they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get where my book would fit because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a traditional fiction or nonfiction; it was braiding of two things â&#x20AC;&#x201C; my work as a psychologist and my love of telling storiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Denise used her experience in a very traditional Aboriginal community to draw parallels with how women form and create identity within their social groups. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I was really honoured to be part of a traditional in a in a remote Aboriginal community â&#x20AC;&#x201C; where I camped out with Aboriginal people for a week and participated in their celebration of culture â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it was a coming together of dance, music, carving and all kinds of tradition.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s self-perception in this environment, says Denise, is very different from the usual western individualised approach.
GIVEAWAYS*
â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;There are no mirrors, and women donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to perceive each other in terms of their physical appearance; they seem to perceive each other as part of a network where they are part of one family or one clan and their role or identity is defined by role in society. Aunty is big, Mother is big â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and girl moves into that through initiation and ceremony.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;
MULLUM MUSIC FESTIVAL is coming your way, and to celebrate the line-up release next week festival organisers have offered a special CD pack of some featured artists. Simply email gigs@echo.net.au with subject header â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Staying Tuned for Mullumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.
Denise believes that Western women have much to learn from their traditional sisters. about other womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appearancesâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Writing the book was a challenge for Denise, who had been asked to write something â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The book tries to translate some of the things we could have here, for example for mothers and daughters in nonfiction. networks; we still have the possibility of women networking, we have a way of connecting that is different from Aboriginal women, but we can still greet each other â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I tried for a year and a half and I just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t write another book that would sit on and experience each other without limiting ourselves to our physical appearances.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; a shelf somewhere; the challenge for me was to write what I knew as a psychologist working with eating disorders and body image into an experience, rather than Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m the Sex is one of the many themes that Greenaway explores in her book. expert telling you what to do in point form and to juxtapose that world of a modern â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What was wonderful about being with the Aboriginal women was their sensuality girl with the oldest surviving culture in the world.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; and their comfort in their bodies. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t about measuring yourself against perceived notions of beauty. Women were comfortable and seemingly self-unaware. Denise has also been invited to sign her books at Lousie Hayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I Can Do Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; conference alongside motivational speakers and other writers at Darling Harbour at the end of Some of the older women had beards, and some had missing teethâ&#x20AC;Ś what was notable was the affection and playfulness with each other, and their happiness to be this month.

FUNDRAISER WITH PETE MURRAY AND SCARLETT AFFECTION, SUNDAY AT THE BANGALOW BOWLO
The Northern Rivers Community Foundation present their annual music fundraiser this Sunday with Pete Murray as the headline. The event follows on from last year’s amazing gig at Byron Bay Golf Club with international blues maestro Eric Bibb. Murray is joined by support act, sisters in song, Scarlett Affection. Locally based, Murray is deeply connected to his community and is keen to see a portion of funds raised on the day go to NRCF Tony Narracott sub-fund, which was established to support the needs of local disadvantaged children and teens. A former athlete, Murray shot to fame back in 2003 with Feeler, and since then he’s been a force to ALPINE AT THE HOTEL GREAT be reckoned with on the national scene. The NORTHERN ON THURSDAY event will be held at the Bangalow Bowlo on Sunday from 12 midday. The ticket price of $120 includes a sit-down two-course meal and show. Drinks are available at the bar.

ALPINE MUSIC A is for Alpine, six friends from Melbourne who make bold, twinkling, sophisticated pop music. Their debut almost-self-titled record is a collection of vibrant songs that shimmer and shine with colourful harmonies and inventive melodies. Featuring the dual vocals of front women Phoebe Baker and Lou James, Christian O’Brien on guitar, Ryan Lamb on bass, Tim Royall on keys and Phil Tucker on drums, Alpine traverse diverse themes, ideas and sounds on the album, always assured, but never quite taking themselves too seriously. Since forming, Alpine have toured with the likes of Kimbra, Sia, Cloud Control, The Jezabels, The Naked And Famous and Matt Corby to name but a few, and have graced festivals across the country including Splendour In The Grass, Southbound and Falls Festival. They were invited to perform at SXSW in Austin, Texas in 2012 and surely must be able to claim some kind of record for playing 10 shows in a mere three days. Getting together, playing music they love, having a good time, dancing seems to work exceptionally well for Alpine, and is reflected in their exuberant live shows, where energy and charisma reign supreme.

Sarah Blasko returns to Australia in August to perform three shows only. Australian born, her family returned from Frenchspeaking Reunion where both her parents were Christian missionaries. While Blasko found her voice in a Pentecostal setting (later to become Hillsong) by the end of school she left the church and started to make her own way in the music business, forming a jazz blues group with her older sister. In 2002 Blasko went solo and released her debut EP.

MORE LIKE MAE... Every time I pass the newsagents I spy another trashy tabloid brandishing glossy images of stick-figure actresses who are supposed to personify beauty. To me it just looks like another hungry woman who doesn’t like herself very much. Somehow we are supposed to not only admire these super-rich anorexics but we are meant to strive to be just like them. I don’t want to be anything like that. It frightens me that these are the role models for our girls. Paper princesses with flat tummies and empty heads. Hollywood actresses are so terribly dull. Sure they’re pretty, but their prettiness is meaningless. Anyone can be pretty. It takes courage to be interesting. And I don’t just mean strolling through African villages in your Versace t shirt and Tsubi jeans adopting orphans like they’re handbags. I mean someone who actually says something interesting.
an object of awe. Serpentine opens this sartorial Pandora’s box with dark humour, sumptuous costuming and mind-blowing classic rock style to grace the Community Centre stage Saturday 25 August at the Byron Community Centre from 8pm.
Someone that thinks. Someone that’s dangerous. Someone with attitude and sass and an ability to defy convention. A real role model. Someone who stands the test of time. Old-school Hollywood-bred proper starlets. Crazy bitches like Joan Crawford, or Marilyn Monroe. Ice Queens, closet lesbians and dirty-mouthed flirts. Why aren’t there more actresses out there like Mae West? A curvaceous 5-foot-nothing pocket rocket who didn’t star in her first movie until she was 38! Yep, you heard me – 38! The woman scored a lead role and she was middleaged! She wasn’t just an actress. West was a writer. She wrote, produced, directed and starred in most of her shows, the most famous being Sex which caused her to be arrested and prosecuted for ‘corrupting the morals of youth’. All Hollywood actresses seem to do these days is fall in love, have babies, then get fat, get thin, have an affair, get divorced, marry someone and wear nice clothes. When they do get arrested it’s usually for something boring and twit-like, like drink driving. Not lifting the skirts of the status quo high and wide. Mae served eight days in prison, declaring she did it in silk panties and ended up dining with the warden and his wife. West was also an outspoken supporter of gay rights and even wrote Drag, a play that dealt with homosexuality. But what I love most about a woman like Mae is that she was actually worth writing about because she had a knack for saying really clever things like, ‘I have never loved another

person the way I loved myself … ’ I believe it’s better to be looked over than it is to be overlooked’, ‘I didn’t discover curves, I only uncovered them.’ It certainly beats the usual bullshit quotes you usually end up reading like ‘I don’t eat carbs’ or ‘I’ve always wanted to have my own clothing line.’ Hollywood women just aren’t anywhere near the sexual animal that Mae West was. Sure, they do sexy. As long as it’s submissive and nonthreatening. Women these days don’t freely admit that they are brazen hussies. Mae West was an awesome role model because she was an unashamed slut. She once famously said, ‘I go for two kinds of men. The kind with muscles and the kind without.’ And of course there’s ‘It’s not the men in my life, it’s the life in my men!’ Mae West would have never married an idiot like Tom Cruise. She would have tucked him into her bosom and continued eating. This Friday is Mae’s birthday. She would have been 109, and I reckon, if she were still around she could still pull a root. Let’s start encouraging women to be outrageous – it’s so refreshing, because as dear Mae once said ‘Too much of a good thing is wonderful!’

Over the last couple of years, the band has done it the oldfashioned way, earning themselves a must-see reputation through a relentless touring and festival schedule. Led by the vocal gymnastics of Indigenous superstar and Gangulu man D-Kazman, the ninepiece create deep dancehall, reggae, dub, and drum-and-bass rhythm pandemonium on stage, fusing elements of music from all around the world. Friday, free at the Beach Hotel from 9pm.

LOUIE LETS FLUY King Louie and the Cheeky Monkeys is a Melbourne-based duo/band. Like in The Jungle Book, King Louie kidnap their audience with their very animated, high-energy interpretation of well-known songs. Their choice of material separates them from any other band, and their numerous residencies around town illustrate their novelty and ongoing appeal. The difference and diversity King Louie brings comes not only from their wide-ranging song list but also from the band’s ability to play to many audience and venue sizes. From an acoustic duo to a full band, King Louie is truly a band for all occasions. At the Byron Brewery on Friday.

Originally from Seattle, acoustic surf/roots chanteuse Kym Campbell celebrates the launch of her debut album Real Life with an Australian national tour. This crafty collection of eleven acoustic guitar- and ukulele-driven tracks was recorded at Medici Studios in Melbourne and produced by world-renowned producer, Michael Stangel (Veronicas/Shannon Noll). The release has already debuted in Japan under one of Japan’s record-label giants and brings together an eclectic mix of acoustic pop, surfrock, folk and reggae. Kym’s influences span an array of genres and her music reflects a lifestyle of sun, ocean, surf and song. After picking up the guitar back in the USA some ten years ago, it wasn’t until she moved to Australia that Campbell began writing and performing. Quickly garnering interest within the music industry after her first EP release, So Alive in 2008, Kym signed with a boutique record label based in Melbourne and proceeded to release her sophomore EP, Preview . In 2010 she was invited to

c u l T U re BUNDJALUNG DREAMING The Northern Rivers Community Gallery in Ballina is currently presenting a solo exhibition by leading Bundjalung artist Digby Moran. This significant exhibition, titled Bundjalung Dreaming, includes outstanding examples of his work from the past decade. Digby was born in Ballina in 1948 and grew up on Cabbage Tree Island. He started painting later in life (having previously worked as a harvester and a professional boxer) and apart from attending a TAFE course in 1991 is a self-taught artist. Over the past two decades Digby has worked prolifically and has been embraced by local, national and international audiences, including several solo and groups shows in Germany, Austria and Sweden. During his artistic career Digby has experimented with a range of styles, including the well-known ‘dot style’; flickered paint; complex layering of swirls, lines and dots; painting on hessian sacks and lino-block printing. Each of these approaches is represented in the exhibition. Most significantly though, the exhibition features Digby’s latest body of work in which we see complex arrangements of concentric diamond shapes. The exhibition continues until Sunday 2 September. The Gallery is open Wednesdays to Fridays from 10.00am to 4.00pm and weekends from 9.30am to 2.30pm. The Gallery is closed on public holidays.

as a harvester and professional boxer) and, apart from a TAFE course in 1991, is selftaught as an artist. Over the past two decades Digby has painted prolifically and has enjoyed local, national and international success – including several solo and group exhibitions in Germany, Austria and Sweden His solo exhibition, Bundjalung Dreaming, at the Northern Rivers Community Gallery includes work from the past decade. Significantly, it showcases his latest body of work – an utterly compelling series of paintings featuring mesmerising concentric diamond shapes.
Bundjalung
In an interview with Lois Randall (creative industries consultant and former CEO of Arts Northern Rivers) Digby explains that his use of the diamond pattern was inspired by seeing three rare Bundjalung clubs from the 1850s – two traditional clubs and a spear shaped club featuring a carved diamond pattern.
LEADING BUNDJALUNG ARTIST Albert ‘Digby’ Moran was born in Ballina in 1948 and grew up on Cabbage Tree Island. He began painting later in life (having worked previously
Of this Digby says “It was a real good feeling to see the clubs from this area and the diamond pattern that was on them. It made me realise I have been seeing diamond
Dreaming
patterns all my life…in the mud flats, in the sand, in the tide, scarred into trees.”

Ci e vieWs r The King Is Dead The neighbours from hell â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t encountered them? What to do about them is the burning question. Writer/director Rolf de Heer has dealt with the problem in what is, without shadow of doubt, the funniest and darkest
black comedy that has come along in an age. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of those â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;what if?â&#x20AC;&#x2122; scenarios that will resonate with anybody who has racked their brain trying to conceive of ways to counter the slings and arrows that inexorable fate so callously sends to test us. Max (Dan Wyllie) and Therese
(Bojana Novakovic), two perfectly rational, shiraz-sipping yuppies, have just bought a federation bungalow in a quiet, red-tiledroof suburb of Adelaide. They are immediately on amicable terms with the neighbours on one side, for whose delightful little daughter Max will build a secret gate in their shared fence. The other next-door house, however, proves to be more challenging. Its occupant, King (Gary Waddell), is a middleaged, shuffling drug casualty whose mates come fanging around at all hours to get ripped and rowdy. A thumping bass, vile language and ice-induced screams regularly pierce the wee small hours, but the police are powerless to do anything except advise that earplugs might be the go. De Heer keeps it tight, never leaving the street for his location shots and patiently creating an atmosphere of mounting anxiety as Max and Therese forlornly muse over what retaliatory actions they might pursue. At their witsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; end, the young couple snap. Deciding to take matters into their own hands, they make an ill-fated excursion into the Kingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s domain. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember the last time I had such a belly-laugh. Chaos and terror reign in the dimly lit shell of a house when they are caught red-handed attempting to enact their own fanciful scam. Faultless performances from all, with Waddell a treat as the no-hoper, Luke Ford scary as boneheaded Shrek, playing the same rap song over and over, and Lani John Tupu ferociously uncompromising as the Kiwi gangsta. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t miss it, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a killer.

Blair manages to re-engage his mainstream audience with what remains the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most confronting issue. Nobody likes to be relentlessly burdened with guilt, so if reconciliation fatigue had begun to corrode the essential truth that all non-Indigenous Australians must accept, Blair has struck a timely blow for goodwill and positivity. Gail (Deborah Mailman), Julie (Jessica Mauboy), Kay (Shari Sebbens) and Cynthia (Miranda Tapsell) are siblings growing up on an Aboriginal mission. After Kay is lost to them (the circumstances are revealed in a later flashback), the others grow up to form a c/w group. To the horror of the white townsfolk, they enter a pubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talent quest and are soon shown the door, but not before they have connected with Dave (Chris Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Dowd), the rapscallion Irishman who will take them under his wing. After intensive tutoring in Tamla Motown, the girls are transformed into the Sapphires and signed to perform for American GIs in Vietnam. It is 1968 and Blair employs keenly observed design and b/w archival footage to tremendous effect in creating the period (a cut to Martin Luther King is incredibly moving). Content-wise, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s light on, with a tendency to cheesiness that is only kept in check by the tumult of the times, the testing of relationships and the muscular, exhilarating music. Lead singer Mauboy wrings out every ounce of feeling from their numbers with searing authenticity. Mailman, a beautiful and gifted actress, effortlessly carries the movie, but if she is its heart and soul, she inadvertently provides its two nagging doubts. For mine, she simply does not look the part and is too big and matronly to be on stage in a glittery mini-skirt with sprites who might have been pupils in her classroom. Nor could I buy into the romance that blooms between her and Dave. But this is quibbling dissent and did not detract in the least from what was a joyous and uplifting experience. ~ John Campbell

Television Guide 1. Charlie Sheen stars in Platoon (ABC2, Saturday, 10.05pm) Oliver Stoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seminal film about the Vietnam War and the horrors of war in general. Stone himself was in the war and his experience of killing an enemy soldier deeply affected his view of life. Platoon is all grit and terror, and no glory. Interestingly Stone had hoped that Jim Morrison would play the lead, and the script was with the singer when he died in Paris. 2. Jean Seberg (sadly persecuted to suicide in 1979 by an FBI smear campaign) and Jean-Paul Belmondo star in the original (1960) version of Breathless (SBS2, Sunday, 10.30pm), streets ahead of the 1983 vanilla imitation starring Richard Gere. JeanLuc Godardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s movie is regarded as one of the forerunners of the French New Wave, with its amoral anti-hero and handheld camera style. Like Stone, Godard took on the Vietnam War as his subject in other films.

I have also recognised what my last supper request would be, after all. It would be a bowl of avgolemono, made by the man I love and who makes it so masterfully: Greek chicken soup with lemon juice, a little white rice, shreds of tenderly simmered poultry, an egg whisked in for thickening â&#x20AC;&#x201C; his careful, gentle hand stirring the pot and scattering in the seasoning: his warm, familiar hand.

And I remember the last supper my friend Jane and I contrived for her husband in the
Within days of my own father dying I remember trying so hard to cook dishes he would eat, even enjoy. It seemed the only thing left I had to give him. Memory being the unreliable, uncertain resource that it is I might be wrong in the recollection of my last dish for him. Spaghetti boiled and tossed through lots of grated cheese and butter: that was all. The sort of cosily comforting, easily ingested food a dying man might muster. But perhaps I was wrong; perhaps this was the dish with which my mother and I attempted to console ourselves in the face of his final refusal to eat.

At one of the recent Writersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Festival sessions, the panellists were asked what their last supper might consist of. It was a food-related session, the wonderful Caroline Baum the one who asked the question of Charlotte Wood, Mungo MacCallum and Gay Bilson. The latter replied that, with all due respect, she thought the
Mine, I have often felt, would be along the lines of a cloth-wrapped Cheddar, a hunk of dense, crunchy-crusted bread, an ox-heart tomato at its peak of ripeness anointed with a new green olive oil and coarse salt, a bottle of Sangiovese. Except â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and this is the irony of the question â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at my last supper there is every likelihood that eating and drinking will have ceased to bring me the joys they do now.

end-stages of his brain tumour. From his favourite, very smart restaurant in Crows Nest we had ordered a two-course meal, arranging that it be ready in take-away containers for our evening pick-up. Expensive champagne was chilling; a Grange Hermitage reverently extracted from Philâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s enviable cellar. Jane and I set out oysters on her best crockery; the foil containers ensured the eye fillet steaks and their accompanying vegetables would remain warm. And so we dined, Phil in his dressing gown, bloated and white and recognisable only really by the fierce glorious intensity of his marine blue eyes, eyes communicating to us his appreciation of our forlorn little feast, Jane and I glamorous and determinedly chatty and cheery, pretending it was just another one of our extravagant gourmet nights. That Phil ate little, that the dinner was over within the hour, that death had hovered throughout, we steadfastly disregarded, clattering together the plates of unfinished remains and chattering brightly over the washing up. Within two more days Phil had died, but we knew that he

question silly, but if it needed to be answered she would choose classical music rather than food. Charlotte Wood murmured about the food not mattering but being surrounded by her loved ones the important part. (I do not recall Mungoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reply.)

National Suicide Prevention Week will be held in the
second week of September surrounding World Suicide Prevention Day on Thursday September 10. A group of local people will gather at the Byron Community Centre on August 21 to plan activities for the day. Anyone interested in collaborating and contributing thoughts or ideas to events for the day are invited join the group. The meeting will run from 10am to noon. For more information ring Bonnie on 0411 581 412.

Byron filmmakers fund local TV series online Local filmmaker Anthony Dempsey and his producing partner Rachael Mackey are crowd funding their new quasi-reality doco series Blessed! for Success with small donations from friends and industry peers via the Australia crowd-funding site Pozible. com. The two former SAE Film students are trying to raise $1250 to bring the production of their pilot 22-minute episode up to a professional level. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We have a small crew and cast who are doing this free,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; they say. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We just need a little money to get us over the line in our audio department.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Anthony has been a filmmaker for 12 years, having worked in media production and film. He says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a rare and exciting opportunity to test their idea by seeing how many people are willing to help fund it and get it off the ground. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve worked on a lot of projects where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve invested my own money and this is the first time Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever looked to the broader community to fund a project. Blessed! is set in Byron Bay and is a quirky comedy with lots of heart and some touching drama. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ultimately a very uplifting story about two down and out friends who will do anything to make it big in showbiz, before itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too late. They get
into all sorts of crazy situations at film auditions, vision quests and raw cacao ceremonies gone wrong.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Anthony plays one of the two main characters and says that although the stories are mostly made up, the life situations presented are very much based on truth. As an example his character lives in a tent by the sea and the cast and crew from his last failed feature film are after him, something Anthony says is similar to real-life events. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mixture of truth and fiction in the series, which is a unique approach to this kind of show. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be intercutting actual documentary footage into the episodes. It blends the documentary-style narrative of BBCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s The Office with the odd-ball character study of Flight of The Conchords.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; He urges people to have a look at the teaser trailer for the series, which is featured on Pozible.com. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Then if they feel like it, to please make a donation and help realise this creative vision, which is also a unique showcase for local culture and the Byron area.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; The team is also looking for musicians with a world-music flavour to help contribute to the soundtrack. Any actors interested in auditioning could also email Anthony at blessedforsuccess@hotmail.com.

Devils down but not out after falling to Ghosts NRRRL Final Series
Story & photo John Campbell
Byron Bay’s qualifying final against the Grafton Ghosts on Sunday pretty much followed their season-long script. Though finishing a creditable third at the completion of the NRRRL minor premiership, their supporters made the trek to McGurren Park accompanied by a nagging sense of under-achievement, concerned that the boys had not risen to the heights so many expected of them. Cast as great pretenders in the hostile theatre of the reigning premiers’ home ground, the Red Devils were sent packing to the tune of 24–8. Missing only their full-back and captain, Ryan O’Connell, the Bay fielded its strongest possible side (albeit with the caveat that it has never been a settled side) and got off to an ideal start. The ref gave the Ghosts every possible encouragement by awarding them three penalties in quicker time than Usain Bolt covered one hundred metres, but after weathering the onslaught the Devils opened the scoring. On their first visit downfield, classy five-eighth Jared De Thierry dummied once, twice,

three times to decoy runners before putting winger Duane Cahill over in the corner. It was as exquisite as a passage from Mozart, and it promised so much. The euphoria was shortlived. Cahill and centre Clarence Kelly rushed up in defence inside their own twenty, leaving the Ghosts’ full-back a deluxe passage to the line. Resuming from the kick-off, Graf-
ton’s dummy-half ran through the guts of the ruck to set up a demoralising try and a 10–4 lead to the hosts. ‘It doesn’t get any better than that!’ gloated the PA bloke, whom we all wanted to throttle. Suddenly the Bay looked shell-shocked. They seemed unable to putting the ball-carrier on the deck and, when in possession, showed scant respect for Ancient Law #1, ‘hang
on to the damned thing!’ Frustration boiled over when Clarence Kelly was binned for an elbow in a tackle. Surviving his absence without further setback, the Bay rallied in the second half and, for a time, gave the impression that the tide had turned in their favour. Making something out of nothing, hooker Cale Rowston scooped on a loose ball. Doing what he does best, he put his

head down and arse up and barreled for the white chalk to notch an uplifting four-pointer. Unfortunately, 10–8 was as close as Byron were to get. What we have learnt about the Ghosts is that they are a composed, battle-hardened outfit that does not crumble just because the other mob get a bit excited. The Blue-andWhites knuckled down and played tougher semifinal footy – simple as that.

Eager participants were lined up at Brunswick SLSC in the pre-dawn light on Sunday morning for the Byron2Bruns Beach Run. In all 179 people got onto the shuttle buses to Belongil Beach and walked or ran up the beach to Brunswick Heads. The wild weather and high winds predicted for the day stayed away and the runners enjoyed a tailwind for most of the run. First male across the line was David Boutkan with the time of 38:51 and the first female was Heli Murray with the time of 43:04. The event ran quite smoothly thanks to plenty of volunteers and some vital donations from local businesses. There were lots of tired and happy faces after the event, the participants being joined by their friends and family on the lawn of the surf club to enjoy a coffee or some BBQ www.echo.net.au
fare cooked up by the Brunswick SLSC Juniors during the presentation. The first annual Byron2Bruns Beach Run was such a success that the organising committee was checking the tides for August 2012 before the day was done. This event was brought to the community by local volunteers and proceeds all go directly to Brunswick SLSC and Brunswick/Byron Athletics.
The committee appreciates all the businesses who supported the Byron2Bruns Beach Run – the shuttle buses were donated by Brunswick Valley Coaches and the port-a-loos at the start of the race donated by Mullum Hire – and all the volunteers who helped out on the day. The SLSC and athletics clubs are looking forward to next year’s event. Photo Braeden McHugh-Easy.

Byron showed flashes, but long breaks from Simon Kelly and Scott Sattler came to nothing as the Devils proved incapable of the second-phase denouement. In truth, they were done like a dinner. If they are to go all the way and realise their potential, they must beat Ballina at Red Devil Park in next Saturday’s minor semifinal. From now on there is no tomorrow.

Gallant Shiners go down to Grafton Geckos dispatch Main Dean Trevaskis
The Mulllum Moonshiners v Grafton Redmen Rugby match on Saturday had all the ingredients of a classic David and Goliath. Grafton is pound for pound the biggest side in the competition, Mullum is the youngest and smallest. Grafton is challenging for minor premier status, Mullum is building for next season. But as has been the case all year the young Shiners punched well above their weight. With the Redmen crossing early for two unconverted tries the blow out looked a moral. Teale Pyne rallied the young Shiners magnificently as he has done all season. He communicates by action and squared up to repeatedly brick wall the massive Grafton forwards. He was well supported by breakaway Brad Walsh who picked up three votes and was superb all day. Mullum first held and then pressured the Redmen with a sustained period of possession in Grafton’s half of the field. Marauding Mitch Arthur put in a blinder from loose head prop with some barging runs that had Grafton defenders clinging on for the ride. Tight head prop Matt Perry was the General in the for-

wards and as usual shouldered a huge workload. Dion Vogt held his nerve well at full back with clean hands and good decisions. Mullum came close to cracking the Grafton defence
but, despite parking them on their line for fifteen minutes, the Redmen held on to a 10–0 lead at the half. The Shiners maintained the intensity at the restart but the
battle was taking its toll. Chief battering rams Perry and Arthur both succumbed to injury. Frazier, Potts, Pyne, MatchettOates and Goodacre stood tall for the hit ups in their absence. Scotty Potts was in the thick of everything and very nearly put the Shiners on the board with a trademark dashing kick and chase. Hugh Salisburybelied his slender frame on debut, aiming up to the big pack and clinging like a barnacle in the tackles. The accumulation of heavy blows took its toll late in the game as Grafton found some cohesion and overpowered a bone weary Mullum defence to cross for some later tries. The final score read 31–0. The Shiners lost no friends and will be looking to finish the season well with two games to go. Both are at home and against opposition of similar standing on the table. The Shiners are treating the games as finals and will be throwing the kitchen sink at the Evans River Killer Whales this Saturday. For those that haven’t experienced the unique atmosphere of an arvo in the sun at Moonshiner Stadium (Stan Thomson Oval, Brunswick Heads) do yourself a favour and get along for the fireworks this Saturday arvo, 2pm kick off.
Byron Magpies one step closer to finals
Sam Lucas flying high helped put the Magpies one step closer to a finals berth.
Karim Kauffmann was rucking well and giving his The Byron Cooper Magpies onballers opportunities to put played Lismore Swans in the Magpies into attack. Kauffwindy conditions at Ballina mann played strongly all day giving the Magpies opportuniwith the losers’ season over. Both sides came to play. The ties from the centre. The second quarter was a Magpies kicked into the wind after a call by captain coach tough affair and the Magpies Mick Young. His confidence showed some great team play. in his team paid off with the Sam Mitchell as expected was Magpies having an eight-point strong across the half backline taking some strong grabs to lead at the first break. 48 August 14, 2012 The Byron Shire Echo Mick Hosking
repel the Swans and put the Magpies into attack. Dave Smith was inspirational in the centre and with Sam Lucas up front leading strongly and kicking goals showing that fullbacks can go forward and with Wayne Van Handel kicking left-foot snaps the Magpies went into half-time two goals up. The premiership quarter was a seesawing contest. The Swans
had the wind and took advantage and kicked away. Not to be outdone the Magpies with the rabid dingo Sean McQueen leading steadied and went into the last one goal down. McQueen was running and playing attacking footy and showed his passion for the black and white. Nathan Moon was getting the hard ball and hurting the Swans with Kane Bullock from the centre line. The Magpies came out with a burst in the last and the cockatoo Liam Afflick got off his perch and kicked a couple of great goals and with Shayne Baldwin and Dane Davidson kicking goals it was a swan dive for the Lismore team. The Magpies won by four goals, the final score Magpies 15.15.105 to Swans 10.8.68. They now face Bond Uni in another do-or-die final for the right to play Tweed in the grand final. All in all it was a great team effort, which includes those players who missed out. This write-up should say Good win by a team of Magpies, end of story! Finals football is about team play and that’s what the spectators saw on Saturday. In the big picture the win means nothing and only does if we keep on winning. It was good to see the team show the potential they have but will need to step it up again if they want a chance for the premiership cup.

Arm in Shand Series Brian Mollet
It takes a fairly high level of commitment to be a cricketer and with a southerly gale shrieking across Lomath Oval on Sunday and the alternative a warm late breakfast in front of the Olympic roundup on telly the Geckos and Main Arm met to further blur the lines between enthusiasm and unhealthy obsession in the Nick Shand Memorial series. Main Arm, being a cricket collective rather than a club, have eleven co-equal captains and when they won the toss the first action of the day for sports fans was attempting to follow the converging lines of argument that led to their decision to bat. That settled, opening bat Bourkey kindly decided to warm up Cliff ’s fingers in the gully, smacking the first ball of the day from James (1–2) to him at throat height, which for the lofty Cliff is about waist level. He juggled and held the catch and in the second over Ali had Brian trudging to the shelter of the shed as Main Arm were literally being blown away at 2–2. The two Gregs, O’Brien and Buckman, set about a patch up job on the innings and had the job partly done when cricketing mercenary Guy (1–2) stood
one up on the seam downwind, which tweaked the shoulder of the pugnacious Greg-O’s bat on its way to keeper Adeha. After drinks it was a oneman show for the Arm as the classy Bucko advanced to 30 but went through more partners than Tiger Woods on the way with only Joffrey and the stubborn Millsey able to hang in with him for any length of time. Pete Wynne-Moylan (2–4) swept away the tailenders to leave Main Arm looking shy and tentative as a straight in a gay bar with a total of only 89. In reply keeper Bourkey’s smart catch down the legside off Brian (1–2) had the Armers hyped but the next wicket was not to fall until the score was 65 as Pete Mortimore and Issac (31) had the game streaking away from them like a cyclist pursued by a drug tester. Ridgey (2–2) grabbed the ball and soon had everyone wondering why he wasn’t used earlier but there was only time for Cliff and Adeha to thump a few boundaries apiece and it was all over bar the medal ceremony as the Geckos took the honours with nine overs and four wickets to spare. Next week the famous invisible fixture list clearly shows the Suffolk Swingers are due to meet the resurgent Geckos.
Surf festival begins
A massive southerly swell greeted competitors during the weekend’s opening rounds of the Australian Surf Festival More than 500 surfers from throughout Australia will compete in the event across five disciplines and 34 titles from August 11 to 25. The event will feature national titles in Longboard, Open Surf Masters, Stand-Up Paddleboard (SUP), Alaia and Single Fin. ‘The event is mobile so we’ll explore our options in the immediate area to host the heats during the event but our main concern will be duty of care with the surfers,’ Elliott said. ‘Another option is we don’t run and catch-up during the event, but I’m expecting epic, clean conditions on Sunday and into Monday.’ The main base for the event
will be Town Beach, which is located in the heart of Port Macquarie; however, the event is mobile with numerous beach break options available between Port Macquarie and North Haven (20 minutes’ drive south of Port Macquarie CBD) including Flynns Beach, Lighthouse Beach, Rainbow Beach at Bonny Hills and Grants Beach and Diamond Head at North Haven. This year’s event will also feature a busy schedule off the water with live music and surf education courses. A series of coaching courses will be available for surfing, SUP and judging. The festival event website is now LIVE at www.australiansurffestival.com and during the event will feature live scores, heat-by-heat results, photo gallery and event news. www.echo.net.au

I’m passionate about the property industry as real estate offers the security to people that no other asset can. The secret is, however, never borrow too much. Always take little steps forward and upward. Too many young people want it all now instead of starting at the bottom like my generation. What initially drew you to this area and does it still have those same qualities? I came here from an innerSydney industrial area to raise a family in a safe country environment where people were more important than status. I love the community essence of Mullum and am proud that our office logo is ‘People Who Care’. My involvement with Mullum has been very varied and includes nearly 20 years on the Hospital Grounds Trust including about half that time as president. Now my family is grown up my great interest is sailing/cruising. A couple of years ago my wife (who’s a qualified nurse) and I sailed with a surgeon friend to the Louisiades in PNG to do some medical clinics in the islands. It was so satisfying and just a couple of days ago I got a letter from a young native boy who’s just got married over there and he’s asked me to bring two cooking pots, one kettle, and some cups and any tools I can when we come again. You see, they live a subsistence life with no money, no doctors, nothing we take for granted.
It’s a reality check and I think more people should appreciate just how lucky we are to live in this part of Oz. How does Mullum compare with other Shire towns? I reckon Mullum is the best town in the Shire for sure. It’s so safe, it’s clean and green and there is a real community here. What future prospects do you see Mullum having-ie do you see it changing much in the coming years? Mullum, like all small rural towns, will face challenges in the future. Retail trading is down due to the impact of the economy and internet shopping. What we really need is forward thinking especially from Council. A good example is the crippling parking contributions Council demand when someone wants to, say, start a restaurant. We need to help bolster the town hub so any help in fostering a stronger retail core is so important. Empty shops help no-one! So keep shopping locally! What are the major changes in your time here? I think the biggest change since I arrived in the 1970s apart from the obvious ones has been the move to a more
multicultural mix of people. I love this and look forward to more. We’re just about to get a Japanese restaurant in town and I love that too! And, if you want a tip from an old observer, check out the blocks of land at Tallowood Ridge Estate. It’s sensibly and sensitively designed with all ages and families in mind. A great subdivision and great value too! Q Next week The Echo will

Backlash It is an historic election year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the first Greens mayor Jan Barham is retiring from the job, as is councillor Ross Tucker, who demonstrated remarkable fortitude serving for 21 years. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of mind-numbing agenda papers. While this paper could hardly be described as aligned with Rossâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s political leanings, we appreciate his diligence, acuity and at times wicked sense of humour. Now that Ross Tucker has gone, what will perennial gadfly Fast Buck$ do without his bete noire, and vice versa? Q Q Q Q

The absence of Barham and Tucker has created something of a vacuum in the way of mayoral frontrunners, though Diane Woods and Simon Richardson might soak up most of the votes. We reckon that out of all the runners â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 31 in all, some running for both mayor and councillor â&#x20AC;&#x201C; about 12 of them have attended council meetings more than once. Which would suggest two things: 1, some runners are just making up the numbers for their group leader, and/or 2, most of them donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what they are letting themselves in for.
