Solar company’s mystery collapse Hans Lovejoy

The Australian tax office (ATO) and the liquidator of a defunct local solar installation company are remaining tight-lipped over investigations into a possible $1 million debt. The reasons are still unclear why Beyond Building went into administration last March; however a report by www.smartcompany.com.au entitled ‘Lights out for solar energy firm after ATO chases GST debt’ quotes the liquidator as saying they ‘owed a significant amount of money to the ATO‌ estimating the total at $1 million.’ After it launched in Mullumbimby in 2008, Beyond Building soon took off and expanded to Tweed and Ballina. It offered ‘group buys’ of solar installations for entire streets, which became very popular. But type ‘Beyond Building’ into internet search engines now and there’s no doubt the company has vanished, leaving a trail of forums critical of the quality of its installations and lack of customer support. Jason Bettles from insolvency and forensic accountancy firm Worrells confirmed with The Echo that liquidation and a review of Beyond Building’s records is still ongoing. ‘The premises closed prior to us coming in, and assets had already been sold off.’ He says the directors had other overseas business interests, which could explain why they are no longer in the country. He also added that staff had been paid before the business closed. However when pressed on smartcompany.com.au’s story, he said that the liquidator at the time, Robert Smith, was misquoted in the article. ‘As far as we are aware there is no current investigation by the ATO.’ But the story’s author, Madeleine

Heffernan, told The Echo she had no reason to believe what she wrote was incorrect. ‘I did not receive any such advice from the liquidator after the story was published.’ After the ATO also declined to comment on the case and accuracy of the article, a Freedom Of Information (FOI) request was lodged by The Echo.

No comment: ATO An industry insider told The Echo that after the company collapsed, a letter was sent to all solar installers by the ATO asking for verification on all GST payments. He went on to say that former Beyond Building customers could potentially have improperly installed solar systems, and that he has been called into repair many installations that are well below industry regulations. ‘Some weren’t even nailed to the roof properly,’ he claims. ‘It has tainted the industry.’ He was also critical of the media’s reporting of the company, particularly by The Echo, which was initially very supportive when the company launched.Â

Former employee speaks

Giving the CSG corporations even more complications: close to 300 protesters crossed the wall at the Rocky Creek Dam on Sunday to send the message that the water in the reservoir needs to be protected from the damage caused by coal-seam gas mining (CSG). Those marching carried signs with the names of their towns and streets to put a face to the results of a road survey showing that almost 100 per cent of residents are against the intrusive CSG exploration and mining. As with other anti CSG action, marchers presented the Ballina Shire Council mayor and the chairman of Rous Water Philip Silver with a declaration from the people stating their rejection of CSG.

One-off schoolies operator fined nearly $100,000 Hans Lovejoy

In what could well be a landmark decision for holiday letting, Byron Shire resident Shai Major has been found guilty of ‘development without consent’ and fined nearly $100,000 for hosting a group of schoolies at his share-house for one week. Major claimed that he organised schoolies accommodation via a schoolies website and with the money paid an overdue electricity bill. Council and police raided his Jonson Street property on December 2 last year, and the court heard they found 18 people sleeping on the premises which continued on page 2 posed health and safety issues.

A local representative who was part of the business in 2008, Mitra Ardron, told The Echo that he quit in late 2008 after differences in opinion with the owner on how the business was being run. ‘Soon after [that] they entered a protracted legal battle with Steve Davies, a director with very high principles. ‘Most of the excellent team I had hired left soon after I did, clashing with the owner who had taken over running it, or [who were] disturbed at the way they handled the legal fight with Steve.’

Magistrate Michael Dakin handed down the decision in Byron Bay’s courthouse last Friday after a full day of cross-examination and evidence. Major was unrepresented, and with English being his second language, appeared to not understand some of the questions asked of him or some legal procedures. While the magistrate appeared to take the disadvantage into consideration, he did say to Major, ‘I think you have a case to answer.’ But throughout the day, Major attempted to turn the proceedings into counter-accusations of Council’s poor management of the case and challenged the definition of holiday let-

ting. He began with a list of around 200 properties in the Shire that he claimed were illegally operating as holiday lets, and inferred he was unfairly singled out. Council’s media releases and subsequent Northern Star reporting was not only inaccurate, but were racist, he told the court. He said his house was not a ‘slum’ and unhygienic but a ‘normal happy share-house’. ‘How does this relate to the case?’ was often repeated by the magistrate. It was finally explained that whatever grievances Major had against Council and the media, those complaints needed to be taken up sepacontinued on page 3

“I never want to have to cross the street to avoid you.” David Runciman

The Byron Emergency Accommodation Project (BEAP) is calling on residents to donate bedding for the homeless for the cold winter nights. ‘It is such a basic need, to be warm when you sleep, but at this time of year, blankets are like gold in the homeless sector’, says Simone Verdon, coordinator of BEAP. BEAP provides the only generalist homeless refuge in the northern rivers, and offers accommodation to men, women and families experiencing homelessness.

Revving up for Splendour

For the last 16 years, David’s company has manufactured blinds, security doors, screens, awnings and patio covers for homes and businesses throughout Byron Shire. He never wants to avoid a customer in the street, so he insists on first-class quality and backs up what he says. Call Dave for a quote... he’ll see you’re right!

The Byron Bay Surf Festival is will be returning again from October 26 to 28. The three–day festival includes a new event, called ‘Surf Shorts’ film competition, says festival co-organiser Vanessa Thompson.

In addition to running the refuge, BEAP also provides assistance to people by way of tent and camping support and runs several medium term accommodation houses in Byron Bay. As the winter months continue, BEAP is always on the lookout for more blankets to keep as many people warm as possible. If you have any spare blankets, doonas, pillows or towels, please give BEAP a call, and help people experiencing homeless- Byron Surf Fest organisers James McMillian, Mike Jahn and ness stay warm this winter.

‘No street camping’ Transition movement signs erected in Byron Resident Liane Simons recently

One of the many great artists playing at this week’s Splendour in the Grass festival is a new local to the area, Angus Stone. Echo photographer Jeff Dawson grabbed his pic during rehearsals at the Byron Bay Brewery.

Byron Shire Council has erected ‘No street camping’ signs in Byron Bay. In a media release Council said rangers have issued 20 fines for people ‘illegally camped’ in areas where the no camping signs have been installed. Council’s governance manager Ralph James claimed said the new signs provided rangers ‘with a better opportunity to enforce the law and promote sustainable tourism’.

For enquiries phone Liane on 0429 802 905.

Some venues agree to earlier lockout Some of Byron Bay’s late-night venues have agreed to an earlier or staged lockout during this weekend’s three-day Splendour in the Grass festival in a bid to help police combat alcoholfuelled violence in the town. It comes after Byron Bay’s Liquor Accord previously defended its refusal of a police request to close an hour earlier

during the festival. More than 15,000 young people are expected to attend the festival each day at Belongil Fields and police had asked the town’s Liquor Accord for an earlier than 2am lockout as festival goers and revellers flood the town after midnight. The accord initially rejected the plan, claiming it would

move the problem elsewhere but this week it proposed to police a staged lockout. Some hotels will now bar entry from midnight or 1.30am and the clubs will remain open till their usual 2am. Tweed-Byron police Inspector Stuart Wilkins told media the festival weekend was always busy for police and he

appreciated the accord’s cooperation on the issue. Superintendent Wilkins said he appreciated the accord had come back with a compromise position and ‘put in place strategies to reduce the consumption of alcohol over that weekend’. He said the staged lockout process had the potential to work.

Solar company’s mystery collapse continued from page 1

But he rejects the claim that any installations were substandard while he worked at the company. ‘In terms of quality of installations, certainly while I was there they were done properly. ‘Our policy was to cut costs wherever possible but never to cut on quality,’ he told The Echo. ‘With the help of a great local team I believe we succeeded, and hundreds of homes in Byron Shire went so2 July 24, 2012 The Byron Shire Echo

lar as a result. ‘Our price differential was largely because of our business model – buying directly from factories, selling directly to home owners, and installing 50 homes at a time. Because of the potential for criticism we had a standing arrangement with Mike Russell that he could look at any of our installations, at any time. We were transparent with him about our processes and addressed any issues he raised.

<echowebsection=Local News>

At the time Mike was the person in charge of inspections at BCSE [the body that oversaw the licensing of installers, and which later changed its name to Clean Energy Council] and had respect industry-wide.’ Mr Ardron adds that he now resides in the US. ‘I have spent the last two years running a non-profit company that supports innovations – principally energy and water – to alleviate poverty in developing countries.’

Although the Department of Fair Trading also declined to comment on any investigations into the company, a spokesperson said that if anyone is unsure of the quality of their installation, there is a FAQ page on solar panel safety: www.fairtrading.nsw.gov.au/ Tenants_and_home_owners/ Home_building_and_renovating/The_building_process/Frequently_asked_questions_solar_panel_safety.html. www.echo.net.au

A firsthand uranium protest account Local filmmaker David Bradbury reports from The Lizard’s Revenge protest/festival, which is now winding-down near one of the world’s biggest uranium mines at Roxby Downs in South Australia. What has emerged for me from this protest is the insidious nature of a creeping police state, and most experienced campaigners agreed. For example, special ‘Prohibited Security Zone’ legislation was passed for this event and gave police unique powers of arbitrary arrest. And they used it. That is how local Left Bank Road protester Iris Nunn was arrested last Thursday. The cops told us to move off the roadway after a mining truck was locked onto by two protesters on the back axle. Iris – who is quite small – was charged with ‘not obeying a police order’ and ‘resisting arrest’. I witnessed her being grabbed quite brutally by two huge cops who twisted her arm and then frog-marched/ran her towards the paddy wagon. She said later to me, ‘I couldn’t keep up with these guys. They took one pace for my every three. So I just let my body go limp. They then charged me with resisting arrest.’ She gave them a piece of

Advertiser newspapers there. There is no quality rag; Murdoch blocked out anything but negative coverage of the protest. Helen Caldicott, a world leading paediatrician and expert on radiation effects, travelled to Roxby to give a speech to the mining familes, but we were disappointed with the numbers. Helen was also outraged with the way police were treating people at the protest camp as they attempted to leave the site.

We letterbox-dropped all of Roxby with the DVD When the Dust Settles, a comedy drama about an electrician offered big money to move his family to work at the uranium mine at Roxby. It stars Mandy Nolan and Austen Tayshus among others. One miner’s wife with a small baby in her arms told me afterwards that she is not staying around. She and her husband will move on before the mine’s expansion.

Can I get a witness? Byron Shire compliance officer Andrew Hill was clearly exasperated as he was asked questions by Major for around an hour. When asked by Major why statements were taken of the schoolies and not of the sharehouse members, Mr Hill said it took a long time to collect the statements from those ‘schoolies’ as it was. Council’s consultant town planner Patrick Dawson was brought in and he provided a statement that he said relied somewhat on Mr Hill’s. He also clarified that under current Council policy for zonings, the term ‘holiday letting’ was not included. ‘There is no definition of holiday letting in the current Byron Lowww.echo.net.au

Lismore CBD’s overwhelming anti-CSG sentiment Rock the Gate demonstration and concert movie set for Byron release August 15 Hans Lovejoy

On the lead-up to the northern rivers rally and Rock The Gate concert held in Lismore last May, resident Heather McDiarmid set about finding out for herself what the business community thought of the planned expansion of CSG in the region. Her aim was to walk the streets and put an advertising poster for the planned protest in every window in the Lismore central area. ‘I thought I could do it in a half a day,’ she told The Echo, ‘but it ended up taking three days. I heard so many people voicing their concerns about CSG.’ To her surprise, she says around 98 per cent of the town’s CBD businesses were more than happy to assist with displaying posters. It came despite some of the multinational chain stores having a no-signage policy. ‘The ones who couldn’t have a poster in their window would find another way, such as plac-

‘The weeks after the rally, while shopping, these shop owners/workers complimenting the success of the rally told me how they stood on the pavement clapping and cheering as 7,ooo people walked passed. Per capita, this is the equivalent of 650,000 people marching in Sydney.’ And the message is just heating up, says Heather, with a movie of the day planned for release. ‘The Rock The Gate concert that followed the rally that day in May had such an exceptional atmosphere. The sound, the colour and camaraderie. ‘Revisit that phenomenal day: Rock The Gate, the movie, features Xavier Rudd, Duberine, OKA and 7,ooo northern rivers people and so much more. The premiere will be at the Lismore Star Court Theatre on August 9, followed by the Nimbin Bush Theatre August 12 and the Byron Community Centre August 15.

Recycling figures from last year show promise Kate Pye

Over the last financial year Solo Resource Recovery has collected tonnes of recycling from kerbside collections. The figures are impressive and I think it’s important we take a look at what we’ve saved. We recycle approximately 2,527 tonnes of paper and cardboard. By doing this we have saved over 32,000 trees, 6000 barrels of petroleum, 80 million litres of water and ten cubic me-

tres of Myocum landfill. We recycled approximately 1,788 tonnes of glass. This means we saved the equivalent of 38,000 standard cases of beer from going to Myocum landfill. We recycled approximately 209 tonnes of hard plastic. By doing so we saved enough plastic to make 13,500 new recycling bins (240L). This saved enough energy to run 17 fridges for a year. We recycled approximately

19 tonnes of aluminium and therefor stopped 760,000 aluminium cans from going to Myocum Landfill. Recycling aluminium uses only 5 per cent of the original energy input, therefore we saved enough energy to power 260 televisions for a year. Three quarters of all aluminium ever produced is currently still in ‘productive use’ as it can

be infinitely recycled. The drink can we use today could be recycled into a part of an aircraft or laptop tomorrow. We recycled approximately 72 tonnes of steel (a million tuna cans) and in doing so have recycled enough steel to make 50 new cars. I encourage everyone to keep up the good work and think about what bin you throw your waste into. Obviously it’s better to recycle where possible, rather than have it slowly breaking down (if at all) in Myocum Landfill. These figures were collated up at the Chinderah Recycling Facility and equivalents have been sourced from Closed Loop, Clean Up Australia and the International Aluminium Institute.

Supporting young local musicians Di Mahoney

Since it started on March 9 this year, the YACROCKCAFE at the Byron Youth Activities Centre (the YAC), has seen over 100 young musicians and bands take to the stage, and for many, it has been their first public appearance. The YACROCKCAFE is a music-based, safe-socialising weekly drop-in program for teenagers, which happens on Friday nights 5pm to 10pm. The YAC stage is set up each Friday with a full PA system, which is managed by sound engineering students from the SAE, who are on work placement. The idea of these nights is to encourage young bands and musicians to get together and perform to a live audience in a drug and alcohol-free youth-friendly space. There have been a number of special party nights, involving professional musicians and music teachers, and a wide vari-

Clone, pictured, will be playing at the Byron Youth Activities Centre (YAC) on July 27.

ety of musical tastes have been catered for, including hardcore, ukelele, folk and pop punk. This month some special gigs have been happening and are planned for our young crew as part of ‘Young People Matter Month’ in celebration of Byron Youth Service’s 25th birthday. Coming up on July 27, which is also Splendour Friday, is ‘Out of the Box’ featuring Clone, who are back for their second

gig at the YACROCKCAFE, along with young Gold Coast artist Jessie Ryan-Allen and her band. Many of the young musicians that have played at the YACROCKCAFE now have their own Triple J Unearthed sites with a number of them having their songs featured in the Triple J Unearthed High Chart ‘Top 100’, including hardcore band Like Cannons,

LifeLine and Gabe and Cecilia Brandolini who between them have eight songs in the Top 100! YACROCKCAFE and the ‘Loud Room’ at the YAC which houses our growing range of music equipment and has been supported by fabulous community partners: Byron Shire Council, the Northern Rivers Community Foundation, CommonGround and the SAE, all of whom have provided cash donations to support music equipment purchases or inkind support. The YACROCKCAFE is a partnership between Byron Youth Service and BUDDI – The Community Drug Action Team auspiced by Byron Youth Service.

EPA approves Metgasco Back in time for home birth wastewater dumping Chris Dobney

Coal-seam gas explorer Metgasco will be allowed to dump up to five million litres of its so-called ‘produced water’ into the Casino sewerage system following approval by the EPA. The move comes despite the same authority chastising it for the same activity a little over a month ago and fining the council involved. Following months of unauthorised dumping, Richmond Valley Council finally put in an application to allow it to receive the wastewater from Metgasco’s Casino test site should the company’s holding ponds be in danger of overflowing. Surprisingly, the application was approved by the NSW Office of Water, which said it undertook a review of the effect on the plant and established that ‘the sewage

treatment plant (STP) can effectively treat the produced water without compromising the environmental performance of the plant,’ a spokesperson said. EPA’s chief environmental regulator Mark Gifford told media last week it was requiring the council ‘to ensure that monitoring is undertaken and to report to the EPA during the water delivery and treatment process’. Yet only last month, a letter written by EPA’s north coast region manager Brett Nudd to the Environmental Defenders Office said the Office of Water described the disposal of water via an STP as ‘inappropriate’. The backflip appears to suggest the EPA’s local arm has been overruled by head office and that Metgasco has no other option but to remove some water from its swollen holding ponds.

Mullumbimby resident Adam Van Veen was working on an offshore oil rig in the Timor Sea six weeks ago when he got a call from his pregnant wife Xan telling him her waters were breaking. Adam, from Goonengerry, wasted no time in rushing back home where his wife was about to have the first publicly-funded home birth under a new pilot program operating from Mullumbimby Hospital. ‘I was choppered off the platform, then caught a couple of flights and eventually got to Mullum where I rang home, but was told she was just about to give birth,’ Adam told The Echo.

‘Well, I made it home just in time to cut the cord; it was fantastic.’ Adam, who returns to work on the Timor Sea this week, says he and Xan have been in ‘a love bubble for the past six weeks’ getting to know their first child. He said under the home birth program, in which their names were drawn out of hat to qualify, the hospital ‘provides just about everything’. ‘From insurance and hospital support through the birthing centre, three different midwives visiting each week beforehand, basically everything you need to get for such a birth. ‘Xan had a water birth, so we hired the bath for that.’

Former NRL player on Kingscliff murder charge Staff reporters

One of the two men who allegedly landed a punch that killed a man at the Kingscliff Beach Hotel on Sunday July 15 is former NRL football veteran Craig Field. Field, 39, and Shaun Fathers, 41, were originally charged with grievous bodily harm after Kelvin Kane, 50, was found unconscious in the car park outside the hotel. Superintendent Stuart Wilkins of Tweed-Byron Local Area Command told media last Tuesday, ‘It was one significant punch that led this man to fall to the ground and hit his head’. Kane, a beef farmer, was admitted to Tweed Hospital with

a haemorrhage on the brain on that night. His family decided to turn off life support equipment later in the week. Supt Wilkins said that the pair became involved in an altercation with Mr Kane at the Kingscliff hotel. When the pub closed the argument moved to the car park, which is when the violence occurred. It is believed they were known the victim. Field played 183 games in his 12-year league career, which began with six years at South Sydney. He moved to Manly for two seasons in 1996 and served the rest of his career with the Tigers. Most recently he had been coaching the Cudgen Hornets.

Lunch club picks next Labor leader

Volume 27 #07

July 24, 2012

The bloodsport of court Being present in the Byron Bay courtroom last Friday was like watching a slow motion implosion. It was never going to be a happy ending for the accused. Oh but what theatre: a casually dressed and slightly overconfident Shai Major claimed he couldn’t afford a lawyer (legal aid refused) and struggled with some of the legal jargon. Adding to that, English is his second language. He was charged with ‘development without consent’; in other words he organised a group of schoolies to board at his Byron Bay share-house for a week. The prosecution included two Council lawyers with a town planner and a Council compliance officer as witnesses. Despite his very bad odds, The Echo is not sympathetic to Mr Major’s case – he did after all break the law. But fining an unemployed person nearly $100,000 only means two things: declare bankruptcy or pay back $12 per week, as per Centrelink’s debt repayment plan. That equals 160 years of debt, and the prospect of ever recovering Council’s legal fees of $20,000 is remote. Rules to consider if unrepresented: never talk over the magistrate and don’t make assumptions in any questions you ask. Stay on topic and defend the facts. As hard as he tried to highlight the hypocrisy of holiday letting and counter-accuse Council and APN media of racism and unfair treatment, leniency wouldn’t be applied by any reasonable magistrate because it’s off topic. Pleading guilty may have been a start, but that means you acknowledge accountability. Hopefully this result will widen the debate over community housing versus holiday letting in a town where the main currency is tourism. Clearly defined areas need to be applied under Council’s Local Environment Plan (LEP) so there is little doubt what constitutes someone’s house or party dorm accommodation. Would Mr Major have continued to host schoolies if his neighbours didn’t dob him in? Does this send a ‘strong message’? Who’s next? Will Council continue to act upon the small fry?

ference, there would be little point in going through the trauma of knocking off the second leader in a term to install either. If there is to be a change, it needs to be a dramatic one. So in the end each of us, reluctantly and without much conviction, wrote down a name. Surprisingly Greg Combet topped the count with three votes, but it was agreed that this had more to do with hope

And there was genuine regret for what might have been; at the right time, and with the right conditions, she could have made a formidable prime minister. But we are talking about here and now, and the hard fact is that well over half the electorate has turned decisively against her and is not going to turn back. And as a result any government she leads is

At the right time, and with the right conditions, Gillard could have made a formidable prime minister. by Mungo MacCallum than reality. Combet certainly represents both brains and integrity and has kept out of the worst of the blues and booboos of the last couple of years, but he has no real following within the caucus and is hardly a name to conjure with among the wider public. And then there were two votes each for Kevin Rudd and Bill Shorten, the obvious contenders, and one for the incumbent, Julia Gillard. Just one out of eight of a party of longstanding Labor supporters believed that the current prime minister will survive to face the voters for a second time. There was little, if any, illwill towards Gillard. We all agreed on her persistence and her negotiating skills, and acknowledged and admired the fact that she had managed to steer some serious reforms through the most difficult and fragmented parliament in living memory, and against an opposition whose sheer bloody-minded obstructionism has been without parallel.

usual tools the faction leaders, either safely outside the party room or else cocooned in the few remaining safe seats, rely on to keep them in line are no longer relevant: the threat of being passed over for preferment or even losing preselection is pretty empty if you’re about to get turfed out of the place anyway. So, we are told through the usual anonymous sources who regularly leak to their media mates, Gillard has been given a deadline: before parliament rises, improve Labor’s primary vote to 38 per cent – which is where it was when she fought the 2010 election – or prepare for the tap on the shoulder. Note that no successor is named; the ultimatum is for Gillard alone. And it is an unrealisable one. Labor’s vote has been stuck in the low thirties for months, and all the promised avenues for improvement – the passing of the carbon tax, the introduction of generous compensation, the debunking of Tony Abbott’s crazed predictions – have turned out to be cul de sacs. It isn’t about policies any more; it’s about Gillard herself, which is why she has to go. Unless, of course, she can persuade almost a million estranged voters to switch to Labor by the end of November, which she won’t. And then what happens? My own tip is that caucus, with nothing left to lose, will swallow its pride, hold its nose and re-embrace Kevin Rudd as its last and only hope. But I’m not putting money on it. The way things are looking, I’ll need every last cent for the lifeboat. Anyone know a reliable people smuggler?

doomed – not only to defeat, but to a devastation so overwhelming that it would take many years to rebuild, if indeed it could ever be rebuilt in anything like its historic form. It’s not just and it’s not fair, but it can no longer be denied. And there is a general acceptance of this unhappy fact throughout the caucus, even among the hardy rearguard determined to resist change although their recalcitrance means certain obliteration. Like General Westmoreland, they are willing to destroy the village in order to save it. They are joined by a number of the union Gillard entertained at the Lodge last week at a function designed to show solidarity, although from the outside it had something of the air of the last days of Pompeii. It is all very well for the union bosses to talk about toughing it out; their positions are not under threat. But those of Q See Mungo live at at least half of the backbench now are, and a lot of the rest are feeling queasy. And the www.echonetdaily.net.au

BYRON SHIRE COUNCIL ELECTIONS SATURDAY, 8TH SEPTEMBER 2012 Thinking of nominating as a candidate for your local Council?

bi ill

F

irst, a confession of interest: I am a member of a weekly lunch club on the New South Wales north coast. We are hardly a typical demographic: all male, politically left of centre, and old enough to remember, through a haze of nostalgia, not only the triumphal years of Bob Hawke and Paul Keating, but the glorious dawn of Gough Whitlam’s short-lived reign. We talk politics a lot, but these days usually in grumpy and despairing tones as we survey the current dismal scene. So to read what follows in its true context, wrap yourself in sackcloth, smear your forehead with ashes and prepare to drink quite a lot. Last week one of our number suggested that we should get serious and each make a firm nomination of just who will lead the Labor Party to the next election, whenever it may be. There was a fair bit of preliminary discussion in which even such unlikely names as Bob Carr were raised; he could, someone suggested, do a John Gorton and lead from the senate until after the election, when a suitable seat could perhaps be found. But this scenario was quickly dismissed as unrealistic; even if caucus was desperate enough to accept a blow-in, Carr would surely knock it back; he is no John Gorton. Gorton was an ambitious minister in a government which expected to stay in power for some time. Carr is a veteran who has already rebuilt one demoralised party from opposition, a period he later described as the worst time of his life. He would not want to repeat the experience. The various stopgaps were considered, chiefly Simon Crean and Stephen Smith, but it was generally felt that since neither would make much dif-

Mayoral contenders have their say You ask, will our next mayor be able to work ‘collaboratively’ to build effective partnerships with all councillors, staff and community (Echo editorial, July 17)? Having been the acting mayor on many occasions over the last year, I have a clear idea of the qualities needed of a collaborative mayor. Determination and patience I have in equal measure and I am driven by a vision of our sustainable future as much as by respect for the views of others. We need to do better on roads. I initiated the Roads and Asset Management Project Reference Group to get better information from staff to councillors and find ways to get better value from our roads budget. The long time disengagement of Council with the ‘dominant economy’ of tourism has come to an end in the last four years. I championed the adoption of the Tourism Management Plan with objectives that include to ‘protect’ our ‘uniqueness... diversity and commitment to ecologically sustainable communities’. Subsequently as chair of the Tourism Advisory Committee I have brought community, industry and Council to the table for the first time. I have also been active working with communities to support local food production and supply through farmers markets. I initiated a (yet to be

completed) review of ways to include smaller food growers in the ‘farmland’ rating category so that they can pay a reduced rate as larger producers currently do. The Byron Shire Sporting and Cultural Complex needs rescuing from poor and expensive decision making with a renewed emphasis on the ‘cultural’. At every opportunity over the last three years, I have challenged Council to take a more responsible approach each time a proposal to increase the scope or budget of the project has been presented. There are opportunities to turn the complex into a benefit rather than a burden on the Shire’s finances, as a cultural precinct and ‘gateway’ that showcases the best of our community and economy. Recently I was successful in moving a motion of support for the community position on the proposed cutbacks at Mullumbimby Hospital and having the hire fees for the Civic Hall waived for the public meeting. Local decision making, infrastructure support and public transport are also consistent issues I represent the Shire on. As mayor, I will provide the leadership to ensure councillors are given every opportunity to contribute to a more effective and representative council.

week’s Echo editorial perfectly encapsulated the mood in our Shire - we need to pull together and collaborate. As a Byron Shire councillor, I’m finding that more and more residents, businesses, community groups, council staff and councillors are seeing that life in the Shire is not black or white, and that reverting to the adversarial style that comes from conflicting egos and ideals is tiresome and in fact unproductive. What connects us far outweighs our divisions. So from a council position, I see it as imperative that we create the space for what the editorial called ‘smart unity’ – by councillors being committed to council transparency and accountability to the community. I see four key ways that we can do this: webcasting and video recording council meetings; creating ongoing community forums; changing meeting times; being less accepting of documents being deemed ‘confidential’ – all to maximise clarity and trust. Webcasting will enable greater community consultation and engagement. In 2009 I attempted to initiate webcasting or video recording of meetings. Staff recommended against it, mainly due to a perceived potential for liability for council staff, councillors and Cr Basil Cameron others speaking at meetings Our Sustainable Future as they were not protected by

parliamentary privilege and the council would not cover costs of any defamation actions arising from a live broadcast. This spooked councillors not to support the initiative. I believe it is worth trying again as soon as the new council begins – an upgrade of existing equipment in the council chambers is due now anyway, so the timing is perfect. Liability fears can be ameliorated with disclaimers on the council website and in the chambers, and heaven forbid, it may lead to councillors and members of the public thinking more before speaking. Creating quarterly community roundtable forums may bring residents and Council closer. Recently, I initiated a business roundtable forum, to allow interested participants to put items on an agenda, and for staff, councillors and representatives to share ideas. The first forum was a great success. Council listened, considered ideas, shared feedback, and changed some previous decisions. Councillors acting to get outcomes, being accountable, transparent and being committed to listening to the ideas of residents can help ensure the realisation of ‘smart unity’ within the Shire so called for in your editorial.

Q

This week my patients in Accident & Emergency at Mullumbimby hospital waited six plus hours to have ambulance transfers to Tweed hospitals. This is distressing, substandard and is upsetting the ambulance drivers too. Numbers of cars and drivers have not increased for many years. Yet the health department is to remove night doctors at Mullumbimby hospital and rely on telehealth and ambulance transfers! One of the reasons for the shortage of ambulances is the excessive use of them by queue jumpers; another, the policy of having two drivers and a car waiting many hours at big hospitals until a bed can be found. Please come to our Save Mullumbimby Hospital meeting on August 2 at 7pm at the Mullumbimby High School to put our questions to Mr Chris

Church work

‘Do not be afraid.’ Some of our community have commented on the Uniting Church’s involvement in the community meetings, protest, and prayer about the incoming changes to the night care in the Mullumbimby hospital. We do this as we have been called by God to work for peace and to help take away people’s fear, especially supporting the elderly, children, and the people who live with disability. Video conferencing will not bring peace of mind to those who are already experiencing fear due to their medical condition. The human presence and associate skill assist to bring peace which leads to wholeness. We also stand with the hospital staff who deliver wonderful care which brings peace

and health. ‘Fear not.’ We work with you in the Spirit of God for good news to come. Rev Ken Day

The staff report to the advisory committee suggests it advise Council that, among other things, ‘total visitation in 2011 was 1,431,940, down by 3.3 per cent on 2010 figures’. This got passed on to me. It is not wrong, but it reveals no deeper examination of things like trends. Well, actually it is wrong – the percentage is 2.3 per cent not 3.3 per cent.

Tourism stats

I was recently told tourism was down, because statistics presented to Byron Shire Council’s Tourism Advisory Committee (TAC) showed that our visitor numbers had dropped from 1,465,765 in 2010 to 1,431,940 in 2011. Once I see numbers quoted to seven significant figures (digits) like that, I start to ask questions. The figures can be down-

start to ask more questions. Luckily the raw data were presented to the TAC as ‘Annexure 5a’. Their source appears to be Tourism Research Australia, who recently released both their International Visitor Survey (IVS) and their National Visitor Survey (NVS) for the year ending December 2011. Annexure 5b to the TAC defines visitor numbers as: Domestic overnight visitor = an Australian resident, aged 15 and over, who had taken a trip within Australia involving a stay away from home for at least one night (but no more than 12 months) at a place at least 40 km from home. Domestic daytrip visitor = an Australian resident, aged 15 and over, who had taken a domestic daytrip involving a round trip for a distance of at least 50km and of a duration of at least four hours but not involving a night away from home (routine travel and same day travel as part of overnight travel are excluded). International overnight visitor = an international resident, aged 15 and over, who visited Australia for a period of no more than 12 months and

stayed at least one night in the LGA. I assume the numbers in Annexure 5a are based on the same definitions. I have no idea how the daytripper numbers were gathered. Who would know this and how would numbers be monitored? How would anyone know that when I took a dip on Main Beach one Saturday, I wasn’t from 50km away? Where do the prejudices in numbers start and stop? I reckon the major conclusions from these stats are: Yes, total numbers did drop (by a tiny 2.3 per cent) from 2010 to 2011 but over the 12 years of records the numbers are rising, very consistently. In fact, over the last four years the rate of rise has increased. Given the levels of fluctuation in numbers in other years (like 2006 to 2007) the 2011 result isn’t bad at all. In 2011, international numbers dropped (as you’d expect with the high $AUS). In 2011, daytrip numbers dropped and sleepovers rose by about the same number, which would have been excellent for businesses in accommodation and may have also meant less traffic

(or less street-campers – not that there’s anything wrong with that). Over the long term, fluctuations in daytrip numbers are wild. Others are relatively stable. I wonder if the TAC discussed the stats to this extent. It’s pretty rudimentary. The committee’s minutes are not on Council’s website so I can’t say what they actually did choose to advise Council. I hope it wasn’t the staff recommendation.

If your fine is $100 time served would be 6.25 hours. Loss of liberty would be applied equally to everyone; company directors and individuals. Of course the time of detention would be allocated according to the severity of the crime – the pseudo punishment that is community service should also be abolished. So we’ll need civic detention facilities. Great, they’d be good community projects aiding to reduce our unemployment. Let’s make them small regional high-concept facilities to spread the jobs, requiring facility administration and maintenance staff to operate them.

How long has it been since you really thought about the impact humans have on animals, plants and trees? I bet it’s been a while, but not for much longer! Although Little Fur is a lovely book for young readers, and is super easy to read, it will enlighten almost anybody about how important it is to take care of the environment. Now I’m sure you’re all wondering, who is this Little Fur? Approximately the height of a three-year-old child, with her green slanted eyes, red brambled hair and her bare, broad, four-toed feet, why, she’s an elf troll of course! Little Fur cares for and tends to the Old Ones, seven ancient trees that are the sole protection for her small, magical wilderness nestled tight in the heart of a vast, sprawling, human city. When she discovers that the

One toad.... Eye of newt.... Toe of frog.... Tongue of dog.... Spleen of blaspheming boy and of course the most important ingredient.... WIZZ FIZZ!!! This is the recipe from the play Macbeth, written by William Shakespeare in 1606. When Andy says he loves Shakespeare he means he REALLY loves Shakespeare and when Andy says he REALLY loves Shakespeare he means he REALLY, REALLY loves Shakespeare, just like you will REALLY, REALLY love this book. When Andy, his best friend Danny and Lisa Mackney drink the horrid potion as a dare, they travel back in time to 1611. Andy is Macbeth, Danny is Banquo and Andy’s dream is to have Lisa Mackney, his wife, plays Lady Macbeth.

In A Mystery of Wolves you’re taken on a journey through a different world of magical creatures, bravery, wisdom and strength. It’s the third book in the Legend of Little Fur series. Yet again Isobelle Carmody has created another magnificent book! Little Fur is an elf troll who lives in an enchanted forest which is protected by magical trees called Old Ones. Little Fur lives in that ancient forest as a healer. It all starts when Little Fur dreams. Little Fur discovers that her cat friend (Ginger) is in terrible danger. Little Fur wastes no time and sets off with Crow and Gem, a little owlet, to ask advice from the wise old Sett Owl. From then on she must rescue an old lone wolf called Greysong, travel through treacherous weather conditions and find out more than she would’ve dreamt possible.

evil troll king is out to destroy her dear trees, Little Fur must embark on a journey into the deadly streets of an unfriendly, modern society. She travels down into a prehistoric crack in the Earth, in search of a way to save not only the Old Ones, but the Earth Spirit itself. When you step out of Little Fur’s world of extraordinary adventures, you really feel like you can make a difference to the environment and the harsh negative influence the modern world has on wildlife. Treat yourself, join Little Fur and her friends on their adventures to save the forest.

Andy will do just about anything for Lisa including committing the murder of King Duncan of Scotland to become King himself and eat all the WIZZ FIZZ they could ever want. So if you love witches, WIZZ FIZZ, ghosts, WIZZ FIZZ, time travel, WIZZ FIZZ, angry garden gnomes, WIZZ FIZZ and, well, more WIZZ FIZZ, then this is the perfect book for you.

I think this book is truly AMAZING. It shows how humans can be very cruel and that it doesn’t matter however small or large you are everyone has the same importance in life! Like the Obernewton Chronicles, this book has the same addictive thrill when you turn each page! I found it almost impossible to put down! I highly recommend it to anyone who loves a great read! I would love to tell you the ending but as Little Fur might say, ‘Perhaps it is not necessary to know everything at once!’

Writers explore the art of survival in war and natural disaster Sometimes people are thrown unwittingly into circumstances which will transform their lives. And then there are those who actively seek a life pushed to the edge. The Byron Bay Writers’ Festival brings together a group of writers whose work explores the tenuous, life-affirming theme of survival. S ophie Cunningham’s Warning has taken her through the archives, and into the lives, of survivors of Cyclone Tracy, a natural disaster that lurks in the psyche of a generation of Australians. Niromi de Soyza’s memoir Tamil Tigress recounts her terrifying story as a teenage militant in Sri Lanka’s civil war, and Denise Leith, with her novel What Remains, explores the adrenalin-fuelled career of a war correspondent.

Cyclone Tracy she discovered that the death toll count for the 1974 cyclone was incomplete, with many Aboriginal people and ‘hippies’ not included in

the final count, leaving her to question the extent of the human toll of the disaster. In a stunning story of survival, de Soyza recounts the

day-to-day experiences as one While most teenagers were of the Tamil Tigers’ first female embarking on a journey of selfguerrilla fighters at the tender discovery, this young woman age of 17. was facing some of humanity’s

cruellest realities, engaging in face-to-face combat, enduring illness, starvation and a life on the run. War is penned from another angle in Leith’s novel, What Remains, this time ostensibly as an impartial observer: a war correspondent. Leith’s work of fiction follows a foreign correspondent through the warzones of the Arabian Peninsula, Palestine, South Africa, Bosnia, Rwanda, Chechnya and Iraq, and explores the choices people make to position themselves in circumstances where a fight for survival defines who they are. The writers come together at this year’s Festival to share their tales of the fight for survival, and hard-won lessons on how to be better prepared, adapt and even thrive after disaster. Widely regarded as one of Australia’s premier literary events, the Byron Bay Writers’ Festival takes place from August 3 to 5. For further information visit www.byronbaywritersfestival. com or call the booking hotline on 1300 368 552.

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

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

OLLYANNA DARLING JOINS WITH MULLUM FLICKS TO PRESENT AN INSPIRATIONAL FILM TREESISTERS LAUNCHING THE VISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVIST WANGARI MAATHAI, TO ENGAGE WOMEN AROUND THE GLOBE IN REFORESTATION WHILE AT THE SAME TIME HEALING AND ACTIVATING THE FEMININE ENERGIES OF THE PLANET.

Pollyanna, tell me a little about TreeSisters. TreeSisters is a fledgling, non-profit, global network of women with a mission to reforest the tropics in 10 years through crowd-funding and grassroots projects – it’s a big vision! TreeSisters also exists to encourage women to step into leadership roles, create sisterhood and empower change through feminine energy.

GIVEAWAYS* SIDESHOW AT THE HOTEL GREAT NORTHERN In town but have nothing to do? Then catch the triple j Splendour Sideshow at the Hotel Great Northern – Thursday – and hey, you can win tickets at www.triplej.net.au

Why did you get involved? I saw Clare Dakin, TreeSisters’ Founder on YouTube. Her passion, groundedness and vision really captured my heart. What is it about Wangari Maathai that is most inspirational? She was one woman who made a significant change in the world through her courage and vision. She united women in actions that benefitted them, their communities and the world, through her passion and her commitment to what she believed was right. Why do you think a movement like TreeSisters is relevant to our community? In general, environmental activism involves pushing against something. In my opinion, in most cases this doesn’t create change, it creates a fight where both parties are entrenched in limited positions. TreeSisters offers an opportunity for women to come together and get inspired to act locally and globally. TreeSisters provides a structure for action that is intuitive, nourishing and very much in the feminine. That’s relevant to any community! What is the relationship between women and trees? Why not a general move involving blokes as well? Everyone has a connection to nature, but in the archetypal sense, women are Nature. We are the life-bringers, the nurturers and the intuitives. TreeSisters isn’t about excluding anyone. It’s about creating sisterhood to nurture our planet – and everyone and everything on it – by valuing

Wangari Maathai, Nobel Prize Winner and founder of The Green Belt Movement. Photo credit: Martin Rowe life. TreeSisters’ way of doing this is through planting trees. How can people in the local area get involved with the campaign? Come along to the movie night. I’ll be doing a brief intro to TreeSisters.

E N T E R T A I N M E N T wood that just lurks. That anvil of consumerism – too much stuff. Like books. I keep them. But I’ve read them. Wouldn’t it make more sense to give away books I’ve read and to keep the books I haven’t? What is a bookcase then but a dusty relic, a silent boast to visitors that you’re quite the reader?

PACKING SHIT The pack has started. In just three weeks we’ll be moving house. In the meantime I have to pack our family’s belongings into a mountain of boxes, deciding who stays and who goes. It’s like an episode of inanimate object Big Brother. I have the boxes. I have the tape. And now I must decide. Children’s paintings, photographs of happy times by the beach, tax records‌ Out They Go! Can’t I just photograph everything and keep it as a digital file? No, broken vases, ugly teapots, silly porcelain blue birds, they’re all coming. They’ve been marked ‘sentimental’ as they previously belonged to someone’s dead relative. Why can’t dead relatives have better shit? I wouldn’t mind keeping it if it was useful, and god, is it too much to ask that it be attractive as well? Why couldn’t someone have left me a club lounge or a Rolex? When you move house, packing is your opportunity to become a serial culler. That means you get rid of a few cubic metres of the dead

Of course all the shit books must be thrown out. I quickly got rid of the Larsson collection lest someone realise that I’m a sucker for popular fiction and pushed the Camus to the front. Truth is, I’ve never read Camus. It was boring. I really should have been throwing things out on a more regular basis. I am just a few newspapers away from being one of those people living among empty cartons and hungry cats. I want to let go, but I can’t. Everything seems to have a story. It’s so noisy in here. I pick up a baby hat that no longer fits Ivy and I wince. I should keep this for her ‘special’ box. It still smells like her and the thought of giving it to a charity seems obscene when the memory of my baby girl is still so fresh. She can give it to her daughter. And the old ice cream scoop lodged in a piece of rock, well that was a joke present John made me, and it was so sweet and so ugly that it would be a betrayal to ditch it. The cocktail glasses I got at my 21st have never been used. They exist merely to remind me of a significant night and an era of bad hair and shoulder pads. They say, ‘you escaped’. The carved wooden box I can’t think of what to put in, well that might be useful when I can

COMING SOON

Enjoy a night of music that celebrates song, stripped down to its simple roots. Local duo acts Ruthie-ma-Toothie and Jim-Bob will share with you their love of song in a night that’ll be a little bit country, a little bit gypsy-blues. Ruthiema-Toothie is a two-piece fiddle and guitar outfit that takes songs of yesteryear and gives them a little twist. Tunes range from gypsy-like versions of Ella Fitzgerald to spaghetti western interpretations of Townes Van Zandt songs to Hank Williams as you’ve never heard them before! Jim-Bob is a meeting of the rich interests and talents of Jimmy Willing and Davey Bob Ramsay. Davey’s playing evokes the raw earthy sounds of pre-Second World War blues. His distinct sound is fuelled by his obsession and knowledge of early American folk and blues... Jimmy Willing on the other hand is a rambling storyteller, who has the knack of spinning truth into legend. He is a singer/ songwriter who shares Davey’s love of old, old music. They are the latest old-fashioned thing for at least 10 miles around. Gollan Hotel, Lismore on Saturday night at 8.30pm.

DUELLING DUOS AT THE GOLLAN

find something to go in it. It’s hard to let go when everything means something. I’m not deciding what isn’t useful, I’m deciding what no longer is important to me. Everything is important. I am an emotional hoarder. Everything matters. Why can’t I let go? I’ve discovered a website called ‘365 less things’. The idea is to get rid of something, either by giving it away or selling it or throwing it out every day. So that at the end of the year you have 365 less things. Wow. Homeless people must really struggle with this. Or is homelessness the new black – are they the gurus of a clutter-free lifestyle, free of attachment and excess? I can see the t-shirts ‘I’m not Homeless. I’m a minimalist’. Except they wouldn’t wear them because they wouldn’t buy them. I have dreaded this moment. Me, alone, surrounded by boxes, craving clarity and simplicity, but unable to let go. The other day I went out and left the kettle on the stove. I was in the middle of ordering a coffee, the waitress said ‘can I help you?’ And I suddenly remembered. I yelled ‘Fuck!’ And ran out of the cafe and up the road as fast as a 90-kilo woman can in a pair of platform thongs. The kettle had just started the first part of the meltdown. I was only about 10 minutes away from really letting everything go. Maybe I can throw away 365 things. I’ll start with John’s stuff.

FROM SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE TO TYALGUM HALL Direct from his smash hit season at the Sydney Opera House, awardwinning Australian singer/actor, Tim Draxl, will bring the Great American Songbook era to life in an all-new cabaret show at Tyalgum Village Hall on Saturday. His style has been likened to Michael Buble and Harry Connick Jnr, and he’s performed to sell-out crowds around Australia and in the US for the last 12 months, so it’s a huge coup for Tweed-based Hearts Flame Productions to be able to present him for an exclusive Tweed performance. In a marked contrast, just one week prior to his Tyalgum show, Tim will be treading

the boards at the Sydney Opera House performing a musical biography of 1950s jazz legend, Chet Baker. Dividing his time between a flourishing film career in Los Angeles and his touring cabaret shows in Australia, Tim Draxl is probably best known to audiences for his most recent starring role alongside Olivia Newton-John in this year’s Australian-British comedy hit, A Few Best Men.

Tim will be accompanied on the Tyalgum stage by pianist Michael Tyack, fresh from his two-year stint as musical director of the Australian smash-hit production, Mary Poppins, for which he won a 2011 Helpmann Award for Best Musical Direction. Dinner and show packages for Tim Draxl: Live in Tyalgum on Saturday are priced from $65 per person, including a two-course pre-show dinner at Flutterbies Cottage Café.

The night includes an exclusive look at the massive restoration of the first episodes of this hugely popular series, plus never-before-seen interviews with the original cast members as well as the artists who created the original special effects elements and photography. Set in the BYRON BAY SUMMER 24th century, The Next Generation DAYS PREMIERING AT was created by Gene Roddenberry, THE BYRON COMMUNITY who envisioned the entire Star CENTRE ON WEDNESDAY Trek series as a way to demonstrate and offer solutions to problems on Earth, with the show’s writers tackling topics such as slavery, warfare, and discrimination.

e r u cult NICK GOES THE FULL MANDY AT DORROUGHBY! Comedians Mandy Nolan and Nick Penn team up to create a 2-hour-plus comedy show making its way to the Dorroughby Hall. INDOW It’s part of Nolan’s comedic REAR W T DENDY NS A mission to bring laughter to SCREE N BAY ON the halls and out of the way BYRO DAY MON venues of the region. Nolan has been performing standup comedy for 26 years. It’s something she believes that she only became better at when she gave up her girlish dreams of being rich and famous in the big city. ‘I only really started to develop as a comedian when I became a mother. Becoming a mother made me very conscious about where I chose to live. I didn’t want my kids growing up in the city. I value country life and the freedoms we have here. When I decided that I was going to live in a country area my comedian friends in the city were shocked. It was impossible to think that you could be a comedian outside of the city! But that has turned out to be completely untrue! Comedy is thriving in the regional areas!’ She is joined by comedic comrade Nick Penn. Until relocating to Nimbin a few years ago, comedian Nick Penn has spent most of his career headlining comedy clubs around the country. Penn’s droll approach to the blaze approach of the every day Australian has won him fans on nearly every stage he’s worked. As the father of a young son Penn also made the decision to opt out for a country lifestyle. Nolan and Penn are embarking on a year-long comedic romp titled ‘Nick Penn goes the Full Mandy’, both comics will be performing hour-long feature sets. This is a rare treat for comedy lovers who usually only get one feature comedian at any comedy night. Food and non-alcoholic beverages are available, but BYO booze, cushion and quite possibly blankie! Dorroughby Hall, Saturday. Show starts at 8pm. Tix are $15 at the door.

LOOKING BACK ON REAR WINDOW On its first release in 1954, Alfred Hitchcock’s suspense thriller Rear Window won rave reviews from audiences and critics alike, garnering four Academy Award nominations including one for Hitchcock as Best Director. Hitchcock had an extraordinary career spanning six decades, directing such legendary films as Notorious, Psycho, The Birds, and perhaps the most scary of them all, 1960s Psycho. Hitchcock’s ability to keep audiences on the edge of their seats is never more in evidence than during the final scenes of the thrilling Rear Window, which screens at Dendy Byron Bay Cinemas on Monday at 10am and 6pm. Tickets $6.50-$9.

s r a t S WITH LILITH

As this week’s Sun joins Mercury in the exuberant sign of the Lion, Ministry of Joy mandates apply, as in Don’t do it unless you enjoy it. If you must do it, make it enjoyable…

E ARIES: Uranus retrograde in Aries for the next six months has you slowing down, thinking things through. Being less a revolutionary, more an evolutionary as you analyse what you really want to change. This week’s fellow fire-sign emphasis restores warm support for commencing these new directives. F TAURUS: A calm attitude’s your best ally this week, so do cruise control and refuse to be pressured. Right now an obstacle could suddenly morph into a juicy opportunity, and while it takes courage to quit the security zone and follow your heart, that’s what your stars suggest. G GEMINI: This week needs credit given where it’s due (or overdue), before unappreciated support crew turn noncompliant. Present astro-energetics are pushing one of your less exercised talents to flower, so try to focus on a primary project rather than dividing yourself in a dozen different endeavours. H CANCER: Uncertainty about the future morphs this week into positive confidence as improving conditions expand your perspective into a larger landscape. Your immediate need for affectionate admiration won’t be met by hibernating in the protective confines of the Crabcave, so either get out more or invite people in.

Mungo’s Crossword

I LEO: Happy birthday furry persons for your Great Catship’s celebration month, may your manes and majesty increase. This week’s life in the time of the Lion won’t disappoint, delivering as it does a rousing and timely dose of regal entertainments and romantic shenanigans. Let the royal games commence! J VIRGO: This week has accidents waiting to happen so take care on the road, and even more importantly, the tongue: find something to admire or hold your fire. Don’t waste energy analysing other people’s behaviour or motivation. Give your nerves a break and just live with the mystery. K LIBRA: When midweek Libra moon activates the old tug of war between personal style and the group dynamic, you’ll achieve more with others than travelling the lone road. You can apply the F word to power plays and ego trips, because this is the transit when flattery works. L SCORPIO: You might say yes more often than usual this week. But no matter how inviting a deal seems, it’s still essential to double check deets, data and special conditions. On the social side, this high spirited astromix sees late week Scorpio moon crackling with fiery promise…

WINTER SHOWCASE Rug up, get out of the house and beat the mid-winter blues with some live entertainment and fun at Circus Arts Winter Wonderland Showcase this Thursday. Circus Arts students will take to the skies this month with aerial acts on the lyra, static trapeze and a daring double trapeze act as well as the wonderful high flyers. Great night for the whole family and if you haven’t pigged out too much at the cafe during the show, then you can even have a swing or a go on the jumping castle. I suggest you wear sensible undies. Show time starts at 7pm and runs till 8pm. Entry $2.

M S AGITTARIUS: Change, does it ever stop? No, but how good’s that for you excitement addicts? This week offers great changes to your present situation via constructive compromise and working creatively with limitations. And if you’re in the mood for selfpublicising, planetary energy says go for it. N CAPRICORN: Mercury retrograde sets everyone at cross purposes, which this week could mean biased reportage or egos opposed to accuracy. Lines of communication continue blurred for the next fortnight, but the upside is really pumping stars for your signature style of judicious cruising and ambitious schmoozing. O AQUARIUS: Don’t ignore safety precautions this week. Take care in traffic, on the computer, during conversational exchanges. Pay attention to news bytes or insights that highlight new directions for your business interests. Decisions based on what others think aren’t likely to work, so trust your own judgment. P PISCES: Don’t angst over this week’s restrictions, find workable alternatives. But pause before making offers, because expectations are high and cancellations won’t be tolerated. Mercury retrograde’s upside is finicky equipment and faulty connections finally expiring so you can replace them with something more efficient.

away in a Sheltered Workshop but they didn’t take into account his will power and thirst for life. He rebelled against the system by going out into the real world and becoming a Stand Up Comic! Steady Eddy worked at Sydney’s Comedy Store in January 1991. He first appeared on The Midday Show with Ray Martin in March 1992 followed by over a dozen appearances. He was soon picked up by Steve Vizard and when he appeared on Tonight Live, Steady stole the show and ousted Steve from the host’s hot seat. He followed this by a further 9 appearances. 1994 saw Steady pick up the Aria Award for ‘Best Comedy Album’. Steady has won the prestigious Mo Awards for New Wave Comedy Performer of the Year (twice) and The Comedy Performer of the Year. He has performed at the Montreal – Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, the Austrian Comedy Festival in Vienna, the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and the LA Comedy Store. He tours nationally regularly and continues to be the (rather wobbly) benchmark for Australian comedy.

A group of local artist and artisans have pulled together to present the 109 Collective Winter exhibition next week. The collective includes art, jewellery, photography, textiles, books and clothing. This is the 5th year they have exhibited in the Byron Shire with the opening night on Thursday featuring wine, cheese and music by Josh Hamilton. 109 Jonson Street, Thursday 5.30pm

He is joined by support act Robert Grayson, a sharp-shooting comedian who rides the divide between Ocean Shores and New York. Jewishborn, Grayson has a knack for neurotic insight and likes to stick the boot into new age hedonism. MC Mandy Nolan brings a woman’s touch to centre stage, ensuring that everyone gets a laugh with her, about her and on her and that someone of course cleans up. Free comedy at the RSL in Ballina on Thursday from 8pm.

CHESS

by Ian Rogers Play at Byron Services Club, Mon 7pm Grandmaster David Smerdon has shown that he is ready for next month’s Istanbul Chess Olympiad with a convincing win in the Curacao Chess Festival last week. The Australian number two is halfway through a two-year stint in the Netherlands studying for a masters degree in economics at Tinbergen University and had played only club events and fast tournaments over the past twelve months. Smerdon admitted that his choice of the Dutch Antilles as the venue for his return to tournament chess was motivated as much by the Caribbean beaches as the opposition, yet he managed to maintain his concentration well enough to gain some useful rating points. Competing in the Curacao Hyatt’s lavish ballroom, Smerdon conceded only a single draw in nine rounds to take home the $US1,500 first prize. Dutch International Master Robert Ris, editor of the popular e-magazine Chess Vibes Openings, kept pace with Smerdon for most

of the tournament but faltered in the penultimate round, allowing a draw against local player Wim Blijstra which handed Smerdon a half point margin which he maintained until the finish. Q The following game was Smerdon’s most spectacular victory in Curacao. Curacao Chess Festival 2012 White: W Blijstra Black: D Smerdon Opening: Modern Benoni 1.d4 e6 2.c4 Nf6 3.Nc3 c5 4.d5 exd5 5.cxd5 d6 6.Nf3 g6 7.h3 Bg7 8.Bf4 0-0 9.Nd2 Extremely ambitious, though 9.e3 was safer. 9...b5! 10.Nxb5 Nxd5 11.Bxd6 Re8 12.Nc4 Bb7 13.e3?

Splendour I’d have to say that it’s an idealic foray into youth culture. While some young people get a bit messy, the general vibe of good will is fierce. It’s a chilled-out space. A little utopian break from the dreary slog of the everyday. Kids go to a festival for the headliners, but come away having been exposed to conversations and ideas. Splendour is about music as a whole picture, about the celebration of Youth culture in all its glory. I only wish that I was 21. I predict this year is all about the beard. BYO Beard.

OPEN 9am – 9pm over Splendour Weekend $6 Coffee & Muffin Special

Back in 2000, Splendour in the Grass started as a boutique festival. According to co-founders Paul Piticco and Jessica Ducrou, they collaborated with the vision to create ‘a little festival’. A camping event. A winter escape. That was twelve years ago, since then Splendour has grown into quite arguably one of the country’s seminal music festivals. There has been much debate about the future of Splendour in the Grass in the Byron Shire, with residents near the proposed Yelgun site clearly unhappy about the event’s future in their neighbourhood. But every year as winter approached it seemed strange that the festival that had forged much of its identity around the counter culture identity of Byron Bay was happening in Woodford and not here. Local businesses and music lovers enthusiastically welcome Splendour back to its birthplace, Belongil Fields for the 2012 event. Splendour has become much more than just a music festival, with organisers ensuring that programming creates a unique cultural event. As Paul Piticco acknowledges in an interview at a Splendour forum back in 2010 ‘people primarily come here for the four or five particular acts’ but it’s the events like the forums, the conversations, the art installations, the street theatre and the environmental profile that is key in expanding the Splendour vision. This isn’t the stuff that sells tickets, this is the stuff that makes a great festival. It’s not about extending the program, it’s about broadening the vision, and Splendour have created an impressive youth event that even old farts like me get a kick out of. At 44 I have to admit when I walk into a festival like Splendour I feel like someone’s mother. I am someone’s mother. I will have kids attending the event. But I can feel the excitement, that primal surge of human connection that comes about with something as joyously pagan as a festival. It’s electrifying. It’s ancient. And its now. Young people aren’t in their bedrooms downloading tunes or uploading their Facebook, they’re together as a generation forging identity. Personally I don’t think anything gets more exciting than that. In my years of attending

This debate highlights a very important question for the younger generation who’ve grown up never knowing a world without the internet. Everyone knows the Internet is a force for political freedom and democracy, right? After all, we all saw the Kony 2012 video as it went viral, read how Facebook and Twitter messages fed the Arab Spring uprisings and livestreamed the Occupy Wall Street movement as it exploded worldwide. But maybe, considering consumers have only had access to the Internet en masse for about 15 years, we’re actually jumping the gun in declaring the technology the best thing for liberty since the Magna Carta? Hear some of our most expert – and humourous – voices on democracy and technology as they go head-to-head in the Forum’s annual debate. Join Independent MP Rob Oakeshott, currently one of the six crossbench politicians holding the balance of power in the Australian Parliament, The Chaser’s Craig Reucassel, Julian Assange’s close colleague, author and academic Dr Suelette Dreyfus, Hungry Beast journalists and tech geeks Dan Ilic, Marc Fennell and Monique Schafter, securities journalist Patrick Gray, new-breed citizen journalist and professional Twitterer Asher Wolf, whose Twitter account was subpoenaed by the Boston Police Department last year during the Occupy protest, and tech entrepreneur Leon Hill, the self-made 20-something millionaire who founded uSocial, the first company in the world to sell Facebook friends and Twitter followers to corporations and governments, as they vie for your vote on whether the internet is democracy’s friend or foe.

Jack White Jack White is one of the most prolific, unique and renowned artists of the past 15 years. In January he announced the upcoming release of his debut solo album ‘Blunderbuss’, which will drop globally on April 20. He’s performing a string of tour dates across the world in support of this release including a recent blistering set at SXSW and shows at Lollapalooza and Fuji, with a set list that includes a heady mix of White Stripes, Raconteurs, Dead Weather and tracks from his new solo album. He tours with both an all-male and an all-female band and only decides on each show day which band he’ll play with. Jack is back and out of the box.

Y A D I R F At the Drive-In Undeniably one of the one most influential posthardcore bands of all time, iconic Texan punk rockers At the Drive-In are back. It has been over a decade since the band released their seminal album ‘Relationship of Command’, blew away Aussie fans on the 2001 Big Day Out tour and announced their decision to call it quits. After blowing fans away at Coachella Splendour feature At the Drive-In performing their only Australian show.

Howler Minneapolis five-piece and NME favourites Howler are a band to watch in 2012. The brainchild of the band’s 19-year-old front-man Jordan Gatesmith, who always had a natural affinity towards early 60s American rock and pop, as well as 80s punk, Howler’s debut release ‘America Give Up’ was a triple j feature album earlier this year. They just pulled out some blazing shows at SXSW and they’re set to do the same at Splendour.

DZ Deathrays We’re only just past the halfway point of the 2012 but it’s fair to say that DZ Deathrays have already had quite the year. Having released their critically acclaimed debut album ‘Bloodstreams’ earlier this year, Shane Parsons and Simon Ridley have spent the majority of this year doing what they do best‌ tearing up venues with their ferocious live show all over the globe. It’s scary to think that things are only going to get more brutal. Having just completed a six-week tour and 30+ shows in North America with Bass Drum of Death (Fat Possum Records), DZ Deathrays have been turning heads over and over again including most recently those at Pitchfork and SPIN who both gave the band’s debut LP favourable reviews (7.4 – Pitchfork).

Soon after Splendour in the Grass the Brisbane duo will be packing their bags once more and relocating to the northern hemisphere for the rest of the 2012 having just been announced on the prestigious Leeds and Reading Festival.

PANEL: “Rock Gods: Supernatural Talent or a Talent for the Supernatural?” At the Forum, Saturday 2pm From ancient tribal worship chants and baroque hymns to the slavery origins of gospel songs, music and spirituality have long been intertwined. The Beatles experienced one of their most creative periods after a visit to the Maharishi in India and Johnny Cash was a devout Christian for much of his life, penning his signature song The Man In Black at least in part about Jesus. More recently, Beck’s Gamma Ray is believed to have been inspired by his belief in Scientology while for Ben Lee and his mentor, late Beastie Boy MCA/ Adam Yauch, creativity was stirred by their Buddhist meditative faith. But what comes first – musical genius or divine inspiration? Does it take supernatural talent to be a rock god? Or just belief in the supernatural? Join the flock as they gather to hear the gospel and heresy according to Australia’s favourite faith-prodding documentary film-maker and broadcaster John Safran, writer/comedian/star of the award-winning comedy show God Is Bullshit Catherine Deveny, The Chaser’s Craig Reucassel, triple j breakfast host and atheist Tom Ballard, singer/songwriter Kav Temperley (Eskimo Joe, 50 Years of Dylan), Spiderbait’s Kram (who once penned a punk anthem about going on a roadtrip with Jesus) and World Vision’s national advisor for youth, faith and activism Jarrod McKenna.

Bloc Party It’s been three years since Bloc Party toured Australia – stampeding across the country and selling over 40.000 tickets. They’ll head back to Splendour in 2012 with a set list that includes tracks from a new album as well as all the tunes we love them for!

Hilltop Hoods The Hilltop Hoods return! Their album ‘State of the Art’ was the biggest selling Australian Hip Hop album of all time holding the number one spot for two weeks and winning two ARIAs. Their new album ‘Drinking From the Sun’ was sitting at #1 two weeks from debut with the first single ‘I Love It’, featuring the amazing Sia, released to widespread acclaim and reaching double platinum status in no time flat.

Lana Del Ray Introduced to many of her fans through her DIY video for ‘Video Games’, few contemporary artists have generated as much hype as Lana Del Rey. Her darkly glamorous album ‘Born to Die’ debuted at #1 on iTunes in eighteen countries and attracted over a million in sales worldwide. A force of nature: Lana Del Rey.

Muscles His debut album Guns Babe Lemonade established cult status worldwide and turned this musician into an in-demand live music festival machine. His new album Manhood is a tour de force of ‘no holds barred’ electronic post-punk, euro-dance and Italo disco and is sure to burst your eardrums at Splendour. Get ready to get sweaty.

The Kooks Following successful headline sets at Falls Festival and gearing up for Fuji Rock UK Britpop band The Kooks head back to OZ for their only Australian show at Splendour 2012. Their live stage show and catchy songs have been tried and tested around the globe everywhere from Germany and Dubai to Mexico and Austin.

Wolfmother Welcome back Wolfmother!! After the Wolfmother album resulted in over a million sales and sold out shows the world over, multiple ARIA Awards and a Grammy, the band blew us away with their second album Cosmic Egg. With album number three on the way, Ladies & Gentlemen, Boys & Girls, please experience Wolfmother.

Missy Higgins After selling over a million albums and touring the world performing much loved songs like ‘Scar’, ‘Steer’ and ‘The Special Two’, Australia’s favourite songstress is back and armed with her first new material in five years for your listening pleasure. Fresh in sound but unmistakably direct in attitude, her third album is straight from the heart and sure to make Splendour audiences fall in love all over again with Missy Higgins.

CInema reviews I Am Eleven At the outset, I confess that I have never been a ‘from the mouths of babes’ type of guy. Children are just that – immature, inexperienced and (quite naturally) self-absorbed. Fearing that I would be more irritated than entertained by a session of cloying cutesiness (and also worried by the production company’s rallying moniker of Proud Mother Pictures), I was pleasantly surprised by Genevieve Bailey’s uplifting doco. Aiming to travel the globe with her camera and candidly record the thoughts of a group of random eleven-yearolds, she has presented us with a little gem of humanism – I saw it straight after the new $250 million Batman and it impacted

on me as a reality check in the best possible way. The film lacks any unifying theme, but this tends to free it from ponderous polemic – these are merely kids talking off the cuff. Nor would one or two deletions have hurt – the student from Georgia (US) was least engaging, whereas the bug-eyed wannabe boxer in London was as interesting in his own humble way as the truly strange boy in the Tottenham shirt. What becomes most apparent is how all of them, without exception, show themselves to be products of their environment and upbringing. The son of alternative lifestylers in France expresses exactly the sentiments that he would have learnt from his parents, the peasant girl in Morocco prays five times a day,

the Thai and Australian lads at the elephant farm near Bangkok classically see the world through different eyes and with different expectations. Bailey, who does it all, is instinctively drawn to characters that would appeal – I loved the Indian girls and the upbeat Jewess in New Jersey – and, as cinematographer, she has an unerring eye for a good image. The edit skips along to a light-hearted beat and the music only occasionally sounds like Michael Leunig tweeness. I just wish I could remember who said ‘I want to be someone.’ Go see it for yourself. It’s a real fillip.

~ John Campbell

The Dark Knight Rises ‘Do you know what’s going on here?’ We were half-way through and, despite myself, I just had to ask my companion. I can’t recall seeing a superhero flick that is plotted with such convoluted complexity or, more challenging, so scrambled in the telling of the tale – it’s all over the place like a mad woman’s breakfast. Visually, there is a lot to like about the movie. Its CGI, admittedly now commonplace, is fantastic (there goes another bridge!), Anne Hathaway as Catwoman is a delicious piece of eyecandy and the evolution of the batmobile is something to behold – if you’re into that kind of stuff. But overall, at nearly three hours, it is repetitive and slow. As an unashamed fan of Christian Bale’s Batman, what struck me as peculiar was the amount of time that Bruce Wayne/the Caped Crusader does NOT spend on screen – the star of the show is absent for much of the time. Leaving the field to the other players only muddies the water, for their motivations and standing on the side of good or evil is never crystal clear. Michael Caine, doing his Bow Bells accent as Alfred the butler, gets very maudlin, but we at least know he can be trusted, while, as the villain Bane, Tom Hardy is as mean and scary as anything – unfortunately, with a mask over his mouth, I barely understood a word he said. Significantly, too, Hardy’s contribution as prime antagonist can’t hold a candle to Heath Ledger’s astonishing performance as

the Joker in The Dark Knight. Everybody else, including the gorgeous Marion Cotillard, come and go at an alarming rate in scenes that too often seem unconnected. For a director whose field of expertise is the blockbuster, Christopher Nolan has allowed himself to be outsmarted by the cleverness of plot contortions that are informed by A Tale of Two Cities (the sentencing hall alludes juicily to the Terror) and apocalypse in New York. Maybe it was too soon after the warmer Amazing Spider-Man, but I was bored. ~ John Campbell

Dark Shadows It was only a matter of time before cinema’s most-celebrated ‘quirky’ director, Tim Burton, got together with his favourite actor, Johnny Depp, and partner Helena Bonham Carter to skim off their share of the vampire genre’s seemingly infinite bounty. The approach is ‘build it and they will come’ – put Johnny in drag (Lord knows he’s used to it by now), give him a cute make-up job, rope in another regular collaborator, Colleen Atwood, to whip up some fab costumes, create a fantastical mise en scène (Addams Family gothic), insert a handful of golden-oldie pop songs (from the early seventies) and sit back and wait for the cash registers to start ringing. Everything works as planned; it’s just a pity that no attention was paid to the development of a halfway decent script – the prosaic title is an indicator of the thought given it. Or, to put it bluntly – Burton has lost his mojo. Following on the unwatchable Sweeney Todd (2007) and the dreary Alice In Wonderland (2010), his latest movie is as flat as a floorboard, without any coherent or binding through-line. After being buried for two hundred years, the vampire with the Dickensian name of Barnabas Collins (Depp) has been disinterred and transported to America where his descendants in the fish-canning caper are being driven to financial ruin by

the competition, run by the wronged witch (Eva Green) who originally condemned Barnabas to his fate. The wan girl whose love for Barnabas led her to suicide in the eighteenth century is there too, as both a ghost and the real-life nanny (?) of the little kid who is the nephew (I think) of Elizabeth (Michelle Pfeiffer), the current family matriarch. There is also a husband who

contributes nothing and is written out of the story later on when his uselessness cannot be ignored, and a daughter, Chloë Grace Moretz of the sneering upper lip. Alice Cooper gets a start as himself, allowing Barnabas the best line of the turgid two hours – ‘that’s the ugliest woman I’ve ever seen’. ~ John Campbell

1. ABC2 has been quietly running a festival of Woody Allen films and among the best is Zelig (Saturday, 8.30pm). Played by Allen himself (seen here with co-star Mia Farrow in chummier times), the apocryphal Leonard Zelig is a human chameleon who takes on the personalities of those around him out of a desire to be liked. This faux doco is a skilful blending of black-and-white footage with historical newsreels. 2. Jack Nicholson and Matt Damon star in Martin Scorsese’s The Departed (Go!, Sunday, 9.30pm), widely regarded as one of the better crime thrillers. Set in Boston, it involves an Irish Mob boss planting an informant within the Massachusetts State Police at the same time as an undercover cop is assigned to infiltrate the Mob boss’s crew. Who will find out first who’s who? Like Zelig, it’s about the vexed question of identity and what to do with it when you get one.

Pop-up restaurants are not new. The last decade has seen a gradual increase in these temporary venues, which some believe derive from the US speakeasies of the Prohibition in the early 1900s; guerrilla dining is another term. Often used as a bridge for chefs working for someone else and owning their own restaurant, they may ‘pop up’ in a private home or a disused factory or a modest suburban cafe. Clearly much of their popularity resides in the one-off nature of the event, a certain clandestine and even elite quality, the element of surprise – and of course the whole novelty of them for a worldweary society of people who have tried nearly everything and still search for more. So far the Byron Shire has, like most regional areas, not been exactly privy to pop-up restaurants – although Sarah Swan’s feasts, mentioned in a recent column, certainly qualify. Now we also have Francisco Smoje, whom I track down one very rainy morning in the lovely Myocum house he and partner Emma Byrne are currently renting. Most advertising for pop-up events is done the purely modern way, via social media – and it was through social media, specifically Facebook, that I first heard about this Argentinian chef. Tall, bearded and charismatic, Francisco embraces me upon my arrival, perches me on a stool in the kitchen and talks to me as he whips up brunch. He and Emma moved up from Sydney about 18 months ago; pop-up dinners were what they had been doing for a long time there. Francisco, a qualified chef, had been involved in film catering and during the gaps in between shoots had started cooking. ‘Emma and I entertain a lot, that’s what we do’, he tells me, ‘so pop-ups were an extension of that, with a commercial benefit. I’d had enough of the slavery of restaurants – that’s not for me.’ He had arrived in Australia in his early twenties. (‘I wanted surf, English and good food’, he says.) Determined to learn everything

he possibly could, he set about doing ‘stages’ at an assortment of reputable restaurants in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide as well as stints with cheese guru Richard Thomas and at Bourke Street Bakery. He cooked on and off in New York for several years, on yachts in the South of France for two more (‘I had a romantic idea about celestial navigation’, he tells me, ‘but we were slaves.’) Francisco is passionate and political – ‘everyone is involved in politics in Argentina’, he says – voicing strong views about most things. ‘The word I detest is “best”’, he tells me at one point. On the subject of Facebook, while conceding it is a ‘good tool’, he says that ‘it’s capitalism! They create something and engrave it in your life.’ A little later – ‘Why is food on the road and in pubs so bad in Australia when we have such great produce?’ Periodically he passes me slices of his own bresaola and pancetta, a chunk of his own creamy, salty fetta – all of it wonderful – and talks about the bread currently proving in a warm spot of the kitchen. I ask what people can expect from his pop-up dinners – he refers to them as ‘gypsy-style, rock & roll dinners’ – held at the very lovely old Coorabell Hall and apparently so popular already they are to happen every three weeks, and he talks about bread and cheese and fennel and olives, a little broth maybe, gnocchi; platters on communal tables for about sixty. Absolutely my sort of thing and I have booked myself in for the next one, on 5 August. Because it had stopped raining by the time I left, my pink umbrella stayed behind, a fair exchange, I mused later, for the fetta, the bresaola, the general spirited conversation.

Carbon drama: energy market death spirals Giles Parkinson

Who knew that the first weeks of the carbon price would be this entertaining? A bakery chief resigning after urging his franchisees to post coalition propaganda in shop windows and blame the carbon tax and its impact on electricity costs for a stunning rise in the cost of sticky buns. The Labor Right chose the occasion to decide that the next best thing to attacking rival factions is to attack the people that keep them in power. The radio shock jocks have been absolutely compelling. No time to tune into Radio National. Stand-up comedy is rarely this good. But amid the stunts and the tales of outrageous misfortune over the new carbon price, it’s become increasingly clear that one of the most stunning changes in a major industry is taking shape right before our eyes. It’s about the provision of electricity. We are on the cusp of one of the most dramatic industry upheavals since Kodak stared at digital technology and blinked, and newspaper editors were shown an iPad and returned to their crosswords. The Australian Energy Market Operator set the ball in motion two weeks ago with its updated energy forecasts, noting a ‘game-changing’ fall in demand. AGL Energy made it clear what the industry thought about this when it published its study on the ‘energy market death spiral.� Fixed-line telcos across the world know all about this. In energy, it’s actually got surprisingly little to do with climate change and carbon policies, although the extent of those will hasten and shape the transformation. The challenges and opportunities arise from a mixture of falling demand, the emergence of solar PV as a mass market product, the gold plating of networks by

What the Australian Youth Climate Coalition (http://aycc.org.au) thinks of Australia’s renewable energy efforts.

The challenges and opportunities arise from a mixture of falling demand, the emergence of solar PV as a mass market product, the gold plating of networks by greedy state governments, and the introduction of disruptive technologies such as storage. A sign of the future is illustrated by Infigen Energy’s announcement that it is building the first solar PV/battery storage hybrid plant that is connected to the national electricity market. greedy state governments, and the introduction of disruptive technologies such as storage. A sign of the future is illustrated by Infigen Energy’s announcement that it is building the first solar PV/battery storage hybrid plant that is connected to the national electricity market. It is small but it could have a profound impact on the NEM.

The path of least resistance Make no mistake, this is a serious issue confronting the energy industry and there are billions at stake. It is one thing to see the present and imag-

ine the future, but it’s harder to navigate the best path forward. This is the challenge facing the energy industry and policy makers. The utilities have responded by doing what the French would do, screaming ‘sauve qui peut’, which can be roughly translated into ‘every man for himself ’, or ‘save what you can’. Or, if you’re having trouble changing with the game, at least try and change the rules, or not change them as the case may be. The network operators have been stubbornly resisting anything that can resemble energy efficiency or demand management initiatives, or a curb on their profligate spending. Among the utilities, Origin Energy re-launched its attack on the renewable energy target, in an attempt to protect its gas-fired generators, and

other planned investments. AGL Energy turned its focus on time-of-use pricing. All drew a chorus of support from vested interests. Origin Energy’s problem is that it has invested heavily in recent years in gas plants, reasoning (not unreasonably) that a fuel that is cleaner than the coal-fired generation that currently dominates the Australian grid would be a sensible move. But gas has found itself squeezed out by a limp carbon policy and falling energy demand. Its 630MW Darling Downs combined cycle gas fired generator, for instance, the cleanest baseload generator in the country, is running at less than half capacity just two years after it was built. It is more or less functioning as an intermediate or peaking plant,

and that is not why Origin Energy spent $1 billion on its construction. Two things can solve the problem – lifting the carbon price to $50 or $60/tonne of Co2 to squeeze out coal, or delaying or diluting the renewable energy target to squeeze out wind and solar. One glance at Australia’s political elite, and of its media, quickly informed Origin Energy of the path of least resistance. And so it has attacked the Renewable Energy Target (RET).

It’s a matter of timing AGL Energy opposes diluting the RET, arguing it would be disastrous for renewables, but its economists were expressing great concern about the plight of low income families in the face of an onslaught of electricity price rises, and used this as an argument to urge caution about energy efficiency policies and for the introduction of smart meters and time of use pricing – a little more upfront pain for long term gain. Of course, AGL Energy could try and address this issue through other means, such as using the strength of its balance sheet and help introduce its customers to solar leases and other financing options currently all the rage in the US. That way, for no upfront cost, struggling households could have modules installed on their roof, reducing the size of their bills and the amount of electricity that they would need to buy from AGL Energy. Oops! That might just add to the death spiral. Best put them on a time-of-use meter then, so they can do their washing at midnight. Q Reprinted with permission

Home play-off beckons for mercurial Byron Red Devils Story & photo John Campbell

If ever a side went up and down like mercury, it is the Byron Bay Red Devils. Ensconced in the NRRRL top five, they hosted the lowly Kyogle Turkeys on Sunday and turned in an at times scintillating performance to register a 32-18 victory. But a nagging concern remains about their ability to produce the essential eighty-minute effort that will separate the champion from the also-rans. That the Turkeys finished the game full of running, without any realistic chance of winning it, while the Devils had to pull their collective finger out to ensure that the other mob didn’t get too close, suggests that the men in red still need to hone their killer instinct. Squally, inhospitable conditions (the sou-wester was nobody’s friend) kept the crowd to an estimated 3,269, but those who did turn up in their hoodies and scarves were treated to a sensational opening from the Devils.

Byron’s busy hooker Craig Rowston is about to cop it from behind before an animated crowd on the hill at Red Devil Park.

Kyogle went to the air early, but were denied by the safe hands of Adam Gordon, paying homage to Liberace in his pink and silver boots. The Turkeys pressed and forced three line drop-outs before, coinciding with the introduction of

Scott Sattler from the bench, the Devils clicked into gear. Sattler was first to a grubber in-goal to open the scoring, then, from the resumption, careered downfield to draw the full-back and send ‘Liberace’ Gordon in. Not long after,

Byron high-flyers don’t give a Toss Brian Mollet

It is the sporting event that Robbie Waterhouse won’t touch for fear of lowering his betting IQ, and on a bleak and drizzly Sunday morning, some would question the intelligence of the participants, but like Mr Shand himself the cricketers of the Shand series perform even though slightly under the weather. Jetsetting high-flyers the Byron Full-Tossers swept across the highway and into Mullum like a stiff onshore breeze to take on everyone’s second favorite team the Geckos, lovechild of a corporate entity and certain associates of Saint Seymour. Pete Wynne Moylan called correctly and sent Byron into the field to cool their heels on Lomath Oval’s clinging, windswept turf.

Adeha and Peter Mortimore saw off the new ball and like a ‘70’s sci-fi rerun, showed plenty of enterprise. Matt skidded one through Peter’s guard for the first scalp but James, who looks a bit like Gary Gilmour (the cricketer not the mass-murderer) soon established himself. Byron were soon chasing hard, Adeha and James taking the score to 75 at drinks and both scoring 30’s, then Tom breaching boundaries with impunity, like a CIA hit squad. Fearless Fayez looped up fizzing offspinners with the flukey breeze and brought Byron back into the game with two wickets thanks to some sharp glovework from fast Eddie. Brian biffed a few off his toes and the Geckos threatened to break out like an adolescent’s chin but two wickets to Jan put

ants (whose win over Casino has deservedly got them clear of the Wooden Spoon). Les Donnelly Field will be a cauldron. If you love a good game of rugby league, be there.

Byron barrelling down on the finals

the lid on the genie bottle with the score at 152. With Broadfoot adding a musical soundtrack at the adjacent tennis club, Byron got into the groove after lunch, Richie (30) and Neal navigating the early overs with Richie, like captain Hook, very good on his leg stump. Joffrey prised Neal from the crease but Janny cracked a couple of big bombs over midwicket and the Full-Tossers were cantering home like Black Caviar. Mick and the indomitable Pete Wynne Moylan then took two wickets apiece to ensure a nail biting finish but Hughey and Doug, more experienced than Jimi Hendrix’s groupies, brought it home for Byron with two overs to spare. Next week the marauding Main Armers attempt to stabilise the Suffolk Swingers.

having found no difficulty in getting into their opponents’ twenty, dummy-half Craig Rowston shot it out to Sam ‘Hard Hat’ Barnes, who offloaded to Chris ‘BB’ King. He kicked ahead and re-gathered with deceptive ease.

They were in again when Barnes lobbed an inch-perfect chip for Clarence ‘the Clocker’ Kelly to gather and score untouched. A massacre was on the cards at 24-0, but this is exactly when the Devils are inclined to lose focus. Sometimes you can love playing footy too much for your own good. Over-heated, Kelly ran ten metres backwards, threw a dead-man’s pass to King, who put up a careless bomb that sailed towards the Devils’ own line. It drew laughter from the bench and coaching staff – which was precisely the wrong response. They won’t be so jocular if it happens in the grand-final. Kyogle, still committed, worked a nice, if innocuous, inside-pass move for their fullback to score – too easy. The Devils lost the second forty, but did all they needed to do to secure the points, with tries to Duane ‘Drano’ Cahill and King again. The run to the finals will reveal their mindset. They’re fourth on the ladder ahead of Sunday’s derby with a resurgent Mullumbimby Gi-

This week the Byron Bay team travelled across to Lismore to take on the Swans with both sides striving to get up to second place on a ladder that is bearing down on the finals series. Lismore got away to a much better start than Byron the latter struggling to keep their feet on a shifting surface. Byron managed a late goal to go into the first break 2 goals down. The Swans snuck away in the second term and had 7 goals on the board while Byron were playing scrappy football. Late

<echowebsection=Sport>

in the quarter the Magpies seemed to get their game organised and with 3 quick goals went into the main break only 15 points down. Both sides battled hard for the ball in the third quarter. Byron had 70 per cent of the play but found it difficult to convert, Lismore couldn’t get past the Byron half back line and just as both sides were looking forward to the threequarter time break the Magpies came with a late surge to tie the score up at 46 points apiece as the siren sounded.

Byron looked a much better side in the final term scoring five goals in quick succession. Lismore got a late goal back but the Magpies cruised home with a convincing 24 point victory. The final results in the tight match were Lismore 8.6–54 toByron 11.12–78 Goals Byron – Shayne Baldwin 3, Liam Afflick 2, Nathan Moon 2, Mick Young 1, Joe Davidson 1, Matt Kurvlowicz 1 Best Byron – Sam Mitchell, Mick Young, Shayne Baldwin, Nathan Moon, Shane Morritt, Kane Bullock.

Lennox Head All Girls Surfriders The Lennox Head All Girls Surfriders July club round, the Hardcore Winter Classic, was held on Sunday. The contest was moved from Flat Rock to Lennox Head. After a vote at Lennox it was decided to run the contest. Conditions were wild 4-5ft lumpy stormy waves on the sets with a SSE swell and SW wind early. The girls surfed amazingly in such challenging conditions, and each division accomplished pretty high wave count. This week was a well deserved prize round, massive congratulations to all the girls who surfed, and a big thanks to everyone who judged, spotted, helped set up and pack up and kept up a running commentary, even as the rain lashed down.

King placed first in rounds one and three of the event as well the quarter finals. An interference call in the semis saw him place second in the round and an overall third for the event.

What’s SUP The SUP marathon race at the Australian Surf Festival in Port Macquarie will be a showcase of some of the best paddlers in the world. More than 500 surfers from throughout Australia will converge on Port Macquarie from August 11-25 to compete across five disciplines and 34 titles. The event will feature national titles in Longboard, Open Surf Masters, Stand-Up Paddleboard (SUP), Alaia and Single Fin. This year will also see the introduction of a new SUP racing division involving a Technical Race between 4-8km and a 20km marathon. SUP racing has experienced a massive boost in popularity throughout Australia during the past 18 months and no more so than on the Gold Coast where a powerful contingent of paddlers has formed. The likes of Jamie Mitchell and Travis Grant who base themselves on the Gold Coast consistently feature in

the top three finishers against world-class competitors on the world stage. Mitchell will be in the US during the Festival and Grant is recovering from an arm injury, but there is a core group of Gold Coast paddlers including Beau O’Brien, Kelly Margetts, Jake Jensen and Dylan Magee, who are all easily capable of filling a top 10 list of world paddlers. O’Brien has a history in kayak and ski paddling, but in the past year has concentrated on SUP racing and will head to Australian Surf Festival as Queensland champion after dominant performances in both the marathon and Technical Race at the state titles. ‘Queensland will definitely be going to the national titles with a strong team’, O’Brien said. ‘In the training group we’ve got there’s probably five of the top 10 paddlers in the world. Training in that sort of group is obviously going to benefit as everyone is pushing each other at every session. But it’s not just the Gold Coast, there’s a guy like Lincoln Dews from the Sunshine Coast so we’re definitely going to have an extremely strong team at Port Macquarie. The main base for the Australian Surf Festival 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 at North Haven. A hotline will be operating which will feature a recorded message updated at 7am each morning with the confirmed daily schedule and contest venue.

Cooking up a great renovation With the kitchen increasingly becoming a hub of family activity, modern kitchen design and renovations with plenty of natural light, pleasant outlooks through feature windows into the garden and fashion statement accessories have all become part of the recipe to cook up a great renovation, according to Archicentre, the building design, inspection and advice service of the Australian Institute of Architects. Archicentre ACT and NSW general manager Ian Agnew said, ‘Far from being a drab backroom, the kitchen has become part of the entertaining area with the guests all getting a view of their meal being prepared, highlighting the increased interest in food and cooking generated by television programs like MasterChef.’ Mr Agnew said that fully renovating a conventional kitchen can cost between $25,000 and $50,000, so it is important to think through the renovation strategy carefully. ‘Not having a good plan before commencing can often lead to a kitchen design that is not as functional as possible and does not take full advantage of its ability to greatly enhance the value of the home. ‘Before starting to renovate a kitchen it is appropriate to assess

the timing and the aim of the renovation. If you are renovating to sell the property it can sometimes be better to leave the kitchen unrenovated allowing the new owner to renovate to their own style. Mr Agnew said the key to a good design is creating a good functional and aesthetic relationship between the kitchen, living, meals and outdoor entertaining areas. ‘It is vital to assess the costs and feasibility of any structural alterations necessary to create an open-plan environment which will require appropriate permits to be issued beforehand for the removal of walls or structural changes to exterior walls to open up the home to the garden. ‘Storage and convenience has become a premium design element in kitchens with one of the major trends in kitchen renovations being the use of drawers for storage of crockery, cooking utensils and saucepans, as well as cupboards. ‘This removes the frustration of searching behind item after item in cupboards that are too high or too deep to see into. ‘Open-plan layouts, clean featureless appearances, and concealed appliances along with large island benches are also popular. If space allows walk in pantries also

remain a popular feature of the modern kitchen. ‘The increasing cost of energy prices is also focusing renovators on utilising natural light and energy efficient appliances.’ Anyone considering a kitchen renovation should consider it in the context of the whole home and get some early professional advice for the best outcome, Mr Agnew added. Archicentre has a free Cost Guide on its website at http:// www.archicentre.com.au/costguide to help people with their cost estimation.

Social media not big factor in property market: poll Three quarters of buyers are not attracted more to a property if it is marketed on Facebook or Twitter, according to a poll by PRDnationwide. Seventy-six per cent of respondents answered ‘No’ to the survey to gauge the interest in properties promoted through social networking sites. Aaron Maskrey, PRDnationwide research director, said the results were unexpected. ‘More agents are using social media to gain buyer interest in their listings, but it seems buyers prefer traditional methods of marketing,’ he said.

<echowebsection=Real Estate>

Only ten per cent of respondents would be more attracted to a property if it was marketed on social media while 14 per cent were unsure if it would impact their interest in a listing. Mr Maskrey said while social

media marketing was quick and cost effective, the benefits were still unknown. He believes there is a natural space in the marketing sphere for more than agent websites, print advertising, boards in front of homes and open-for-inspections. ‘These methods of social marketing will become more predominant as younger generations such as Gen Y increasingly look to step into home ownership,’ he said. ‘But it’s yet to be seen if using social media to promote properties will lead to more sales,’ he said.

German backpacker Hansel Pfeffergrinder told The Echo, ‘I had a near miss there visiting with my sister. I think the gingerbread might have been spiked.’ It is understood Council officers are also investigating whether or not the confectionery-based dwelling meets Australian building standards.
