400 greet whales at Cape Byron Around 400 people and around 20 whales turned up for the opening of whale watching season at Byron Bay on the weekend. While Trish and Wally Franklin were giving their whale presentation they were upstaged by a couple of large humpback passing within a hundred metres of Cape Byron. Member for Richmond Justine Elliot spoke of her and Australia’s deep feelings for the whales and said she would hand deliver hundreds of letters and drawings to PM John Howard and to the Japanese ambassador in Canberra. Reporting to The Echo from Ulsan in South Korea, Australians For Animals campaigner Sue Arnold was not optimistic about the outcomes of the International

She urged local residents to phone John Howard’s office (8226 8400) and call on Australia to take Japan to the International Court of Justice. ‘I have lobbied many countries who see this as the only alternative, it needs several countries to take this action,’ said Ms Arnold. ‘The Japanese could start killing humpbacks this summer. ‘I asked the Australian Minister for the Environment [Ian Campbell] at an impromptu press conference if Australia would take Japan to court and he ducked the question.

Andrew Denton to open sculpture show In the last three years he’s given Enough Rope to the glamorous and the tarnished, the mighty and the fallen. Princess Mary of Denmark, Steven Spielberg, Jack Thompson, Russell Crowe, Rene Rivkin, Alan Bond and Bob Geldof to name but a few. Cape Byron Trust and organisers of artsCape: the Nature of Sculpture have announced Andrew Denton will be opening this major exhibition of sculptures at Cape Byron this Sunday. ‘Andrew’s decision to open the show as well as become a patron of artsCape is no accident. He loves Byron Bay, having been an enthusiastic visitor to the East Coast Blues and Roots Festival for the past five years, as well as having holidayed here with his family on many occasions,’ said a spokesperson. ‘His support for this event also comes from an appreciation of what outdoor sculptural exhibitions can offer a community; Sculpture by the Sea at Bondi being a case in point. Having enjoyed Bondi’s sculptural walk, Andrew is now

looking forward to seeing what Byron Bay can offer. Will it delight? Will it amuse? Will it shock? ‘The answer is that just like Andrew Denton, it will probably do a bit of everything. As radio legend, Doug Mulray once said of Andrew: “He is a very strange man; a cross between John Travolta and a gherkin.”’ Andrew Denton, pictured below with artsCape organiser Merran

Morrison, will open artsCape at 11am on Sunday next to the lighthouse cottages, followed by the presentation of prizes for the winning sculptures. ArtsCape will be open for two weeks until July 11 and is free to the public. To avoid traffic congestion, organisers are asking people to walk or be dropped off on Sunday. A shuttle bus will leave the Beach Café bus stop at 10am.

issues in the IWC. ‘This means that the only action Australia will take is to get up a resolution in the IWC opposing Japanese scientiďŹ c whaling, which is not going to mean anything.’ Sue Arnold also sent in a backgrounder on the IWC convention: ‘Outside the Lotte Hotel where the IWC Convention meeting is being held, the local gardeners have created a beautiful living oral topiary of two whales. The city is decked out in signs welcoming participants to the IWC meeting. ‘Ulsan is a heavy duty industrial centre basically owned, it seems, by Hyundai. At night Ulsan comes alive at night with endless bars, cafes and parties. ‘In the hotel where I’m staying with grass roots activists from the US and UK, we’re right in the midst of the madness. To our amusement we discovered we’re actually staying in a brothel which is extremely comfortable and provides all the essentials including condoms and massage oils. ‘But the atmosphere inside the Lotte Hotel is completely different. Activists and delegates from all over the world are gathering to observe and take part in the critical Plenary meeting of the IWC which starts on Monday June 20. ‘Discussion among activists and delegates from many

member countries outside the Working Group meetings has focussed on Japan’s latest scientiďŹ c quota. It is clear that many countries who may have been sympathetic to the pro-whaling nations attempts to pass the Revised Management Scheme which will lead to a resumption of commercial whaling, are shocked by the latest “scientiďŹ câ€? quota. ‘There’s deep concern over the possibility that Japan may have a simple majority.If Japan has a simple majority as we expect, there may be massive changes in how the IWC is run. ‘Environmental groups may be barred; secret ballots on IWC resolutions could become the order of the day and many acts of hard won progress over the years could be turned back.It is highly likely that the Conservation Committee would disappear if Japan obtains a majority. ‘Many delegates from member countries are saying privately that this IWC meeting is the most critical one ever held. So many of the new nations who joined IWC either as a result of generous aid by Japan or encouragement by anti whaling nations have little understanding of the turgid proceedings.’ Q Photos from the Byron gathering have been posted in the image gallery at www. worldpeacenow.org.au. Most of these photos have been sent to Greenpeace in Korea to project onto a building near the IWC meeting.

Over the past few years Bay Lane has become a popular outdoor eating venue in Byron Bay. Takeway food shops have evolved into informal restaurants as the lane’s reputation as an ‘eat street’ gained strength. Tables and chairs mushroomed to service the hungry public, but in most cases the move was taken without Council approval. While some restaurateurs abided by Council regula-

tions and paid substantial development fees for car parking and sewage infrastructure, six out of the nine establishments in Bay Lane sought consent for the cheaper option of takeaway food outlet. Council recently decided to charge takeaways which are operating as fully fledged restaurants the higher development fees, which could amount to as much as $10,000 per seat. Describing the decision as

an ‘issue of equity’ Council’s planning director Ray Darney said it was unfair not to enforce the issue across the board. Letters will be sent to non compliant premises in the near future and operators will have 28 days to make a submission to Council on their individual case. ‘It is a matter that might take some time to resolve and could be difďŹ cult in the short term if the sewage load [currently generated by the

premises] is greater than their approved entitlement,’ explained Mr Darney. ‘We have some other areas with similar dramas in Bangalow and Brunswick Heads where people have moved outside their consent. They had approval for one type of business and have since moved to another,’ said Mr Darney. ‘Council has ruled that we should be compassionate on this issue but we also have to ensure equity.’

Local News New wing for Orthodox Home

The addition of a new wing to The Australian Orthodox Home for the Aged in Byron Bay is a small step in the right direction when it comes to addressing the aged care crisis facing the far north coast. Julie Bishop, federal minister for ageing, opened the wing, to be named ‘Sunset Bay’, on Saturday morning. The home is named ‘Orthodox’ in recognition of George Feros, who was Greek Orthodox, and was responsible for raising the money to open the facility some 33 years ago. It provides full care for aged people who can no longer live at home and need assistance with day to day living. Deborah Williams, CEO of the organisation, is pleased that they have been able to extend the facility, but also concerned about the extreme shortage of aged care in this region. ‘The far north coast of NSW has the fastest growing ageing population in the

state,’ said Ms Williams. ‘I’ve been involved with this facility for ďŹ ve years and when I ďŹ rst arrived, a good number of our residents were from outside Byron Shire. Now, basically all our residents and most of those waiting for a place are all from within the shire, showing how rapidly our ageing population is growing.’ The cost of building the $2 million extension was fully met by the Orthodox Home itself, but it was successful in winning a statewide tender for federal government funding to provide ongoing subsidies for the cost of care. The extension will provide an extra ten beds for a lowcare dementia wing, increasing the capacity of the home from 28 to 38. Unfortunately, it is still not enough. ‘I could have ďŹ lled those beds six times over,’ said Ms Williams. ‘However, the government recognises our dilemma and that is reected by the fact that we won the

FURNITURE AND HOMEWARES FOR RELAXED LIVINGx

tender, and that the minister has come up here to open the wing.’ Ms Williams is conďŹ dent that there will be further opportunities to gain funding for this facility and others like it in this area in the future. ‘Sunset Bay is an example of how the partnership between the Australian Government, aged care sector, and local communities, is helping to provide world class aged care for older Australians in their local regions,’ Ms Bishop said in a press release. The opening follows the recent announcement that the federal government will allocate 255 new residential aged care places and community care packages to the Far North Coast Aged Care Planning Region this year. These are part of an estimated 500 new aged care places to be allocated to the region over the next three years.

Sexual assault campaign Key messages for a community awareness campaign aimed at alerting Byron Bay visitors and residents to the dangers of sexual assault have been endorsed by an interagency committee and will be promoted to the community soon. The messages, decided at the second meeting of the Byron Shire Sexual Assault Interagency, will stress the importance of personal vigilance and emphasise the relationship between sexual assault and drug and alcohol consumption. ‘Alcohol can have a disinhibiting effect which may reduce awareness and responsibility in the area of consenting sex,’ said Sharon Brodie from the Richmond Sexual Assault Service. ‘We are planning a campaign which will highlight the fact that males need to take responsibility for awareness of consensual sex, rather than women needing to reduce supposedly at ‘risk’ behaviour.’ Australian and international research, and campaigns, indicate that focussing on offender behaviour and getting information across to young males, in particular, can have a positive outcome in promoting appropriate sexual behaviour that is based on respect and consent. Police and the Richmond Sexual Assault Service are wo r k i n g t o g e t h e r t o develop posters for the campaign and focus groups are being held to ‘test’ the messages. A meeting has been held with backpacker hostel managers who have indicated their willingness to support the community campaign.

Alex McAuley In what could easily be described as the most successful tidy up of the decade, local resident and semi retired photographer Ted Harvey recently unearthed a previously forgotten stash of negatives of iconic rock band Led Zeppelin. Working as a freelance photographer shooting the big bands as they passed through Sydney in the 60s and 70s, Ted had a lot of exposure to lots of famous names in the music world such as Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Cat Stevens and Jethro Tull. He has some very fond memories of his association with Led Zeppelin, Robert Plant in particular. ‘I visited Zeppelin at their hotel, gave them some concert photos I’d taken,’ said Ted. ‘Robert Plant actually told me they were the best photos that anyone had taken of them in the world. I just ďŹ gured maybe he hadn’t seen many! ‘After chatting with the guys for a while, Robert said to me “let’s go for a walkâ€?. Wandering out on the bustling streets of Kings Cross, Robert started to sing at the top of his voice. To my surprise, no one bothered to look; no one recognised him! That’s the Cross! ‘On our stroll, Robert spotted a dumped Plymouth

car – it used a viking head as its emblem. He whipped out his pocket knife and tried to pry the viking head off. I was worried the police might come over to speak to these two long haired louts vandalising the car, but they didn’t. In spite of his best efforts, the viking head didn’t come loose.’

These memories came back to Ted recently after a friend asked to see the photos he had taken of Zeppelin. Incredibly, he couldn’t remember where they were. After months of sporadic searching he was rummaging around in a box in storage when he came across over 100 of his original nega-

tives, and realised that no one apart from Zeppelin had ever seen the photos. The enormity of his discovery is still hitting home as he realises how many people have been deeply inuenced by Zeppelin’s music. Most people cannot believe he has the photographs in his possession. ‘In a bizarre coincidence, I was having the photos printed in the middle of May. I decided to do a search on the web and discovered that it was Led Zeppelin week! There was a convention being held in London on May 21, so I rang and spoke to one of the organisers who was very excited by what I had to say. ‘He put me on to Dave Lewis who has written several books, and he’s very interested in seeing the photos and talking to me about them. I think there’s almost certainly a book in it,’ said Ted. But is there an exhibition in it too? Ted’s undecided about that. He is taking things fairly slowly at this point and just waiting to see what happens next. One thing he has made sure of, however, is the safety of his precious ďŹ nd; he has put all the negatives in a ďŹ re proof safe and keeps copies of the photographs in several different locations. Let’s just hope he can remember where they all are!

Council knocks back spa king’s manor Michael McDonald Byron Shire Councillors last week voted 9-0 to refuse approval for millionaire businessman and ‘spa king’ Eddie Phillips’s luxury pad proposed for two blocks on Lighthouse Road, Byron Bay. Planning staff had recommended approving the two storey house with swimming pool and a 350 square metre basement garage cut into the hillside. Among their reasons for refusal Councillors cited excessive visual impact; excessive and unnecessary excavation; breach of building height plane; and unacceptable impact from construction activities on No Name Lane. They noted that excavation for the basement garage would be to a depth of ďŹ ve metres when Development Control Plan (DCP) 2002 prescribes a maximum cut depth of one metre. They also said the property is part of the ridgeline above Lighthouse Road and the proposed dwelling ‘will stand above the ridgeline when viewed from the water, parts of the Byron beaches and parts of Lighthouse Road’.

Representing objectors during public access, resident Neil Morrison said he was ‘gobsmacked’ that staff had recommended approval. He said the house was inconsistent in bulk, scale and character with the area. ‘All it needs is an efďŹ gy of Scarlett O’Hara on the stairs spiralling to the main bedroom,’ Mr Morrison said. He estimated removal of the cut of 3,000 cubic metres of earth would require 900 truck movements and create ‘huge safety issues’ for the residents of No Name Lane. Speaking for the proposal, consultant planner Malcolm Scott said it met the objectives of the zone and complied with height standard ‘other than on the northern elevation’. Most of the development along Lighthouse Road is two storey.’ Eddie Phillips has ďŹ ngers in several business pies around town but generally keeps a low proďŹ le. He has been trying to get the $2.5 million Lighthouse Road project up for some time and currently has a

case against Council for ‘deemed refusal’ in the Land and Environment Court. Apparently Mr Phillips now owns the two pubs in M u l l u m b i m b y, w h i c h would make him a major hotelier in the region along with John Cornell and Tom Mooney. His international reputation is somewhat larger, however. The Fiji Times described him as the ‘world renowned spa king’ in relation to his development of The Pearl South Pacific resort. Mr Phillips reportedly bought the resort for $6 million from former business partner Vincent Rae of Rae’s At Watego’s fame. One of the features of the Fiji resort is ‘a 15 metre waterfall cascading down the glass behind the bar’. According to the Times, Mr Phillips started building spas in 1977 and then imported and exported skincare products. His business empire operates in Hong Kong, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Fiji, Bankgkok, Taiwan, Australia and China.

Business supports Tosser campaign Cigarette litter is the most common form of litter and with over seven billion butts being dropped yearly in Australia they are one of our biggest problems. Many people complain about the need for more bins but in reality, it is everyone’s responsibility to reduce the amount of rubbish and pollution that is carried into the drains. Local councils and ratepayers have to foot the bill for cleaning and it is much more cost-effective to stop the problem at the top of the pipe than further downstream.

Sam Cudmore, manager of Legend Pizza, gets in the spirit of the Tosser campaign.

A campaign around town at present has a big supporter – Legend Pizza in Byron Bay. The Don’t Be a Tosser Campaign is targeting cigarette butt litter and, as business owner Sam Cudmore from Legend appreciates, the new instalment of a steel Bin Your Butt ashtray at the front of his shop. Sam feels that the new butt bins are a good idea and since they’ve been put up he has noticed an improvement in the cleanliness of the streets and the

butts he has had to sweep up in front of his shop. Byron Shire Council has two stormwater workers who have installed over 50 butt-out bins and have been concentrating on sweeping and cleaning streets and gutters each day. Sam said, ‘The work these guys have been doing has been great, you can really see where they’ve been. I guess the bottom line is that people should be responsible for their own mess and not leave it to others.’

Ever y butt that gets dropped on the street ends up in the gutter and in our stormwater system. ‘It is important for our international visitors to realise that our stormwater system is not treated,’ says Council. ‘Many European countries ďŹ lter and treat the stormwater before it drains into the waterways. In Australia this is not the case. All the drains ow untreated to the rivers and the sea.You may end up swimming with the litter you dropped in the street!’

Echo witnesses upset in Tucker case A key witness for The Echo claimed she felt ‘nervous, pressured and slightly intimidated’ when Ross Tucker’s legal team surrounded her outside the NSW Supreme Court. Cheryl Searson-Lindsay, a former advertising sales manager for The Saturday Star, told Acting Justice Patten she was so upset after Tucker’s business partner Harold Ross, his solicitor Andrew Sochacki and senior counselTim Hale approached her to speak to them, she hadn’t slept all night. Acting Justice Patten told Searson-Lindsay that Tucker’s legal team was entitled to approach her. His Honour suggested it might have been ‘the manner’ in which they did so which had upset her. Searson-Lindsay was giving evidence in a defamation action brought by Tucker against The Echo and Fast Buck$. A jury in 2002 found The Echo and Fast Buck$ had defamed the Byron Shire Councillor by publishing an article which said he had acted dishonourably in his negotiations to settle a claim for compensation by a former employee, Leanne Potts, in that he made an offer of settlement which he refused to honour. The jury also found the article said that Tucker is ‘a domineering employer in that he abuses employees by belittling them and shouting at them and using obscene language’. The Echo is defending the

allegations it made against Tucker on the basis that they are true and that the paper acted reasonably in publishing them. When Searson-Lindsay resumed her testimony, it contradicted both Tucker’s and Ross’s evidence that Potts only worked part time selling advertising and that Tucker enjoyed courteous relations with female staff. She said Potts had worked full-time for the newspaper.

‘More pants’ She told the court she had seen Tucker in heated exchanges with several Star employees including Potts, and had overheard him say to Potts: ‘What we need around here are more pants than skirts.’ Searson-Lindsay claimed that after she left The Star in late 1997, and before Potts’s case was heard by the Industrial Relations Commission, Ross asked her to sign a statement saying that Potts had worked part-time. She declined. Ross denied this ever happened. Earlier he told the court the only way Comptran Pty Ltd, the publisher of The Star, could afford to pay Potts the $7042 ordered by the Chief Industrial Magistrate’s Court was by instalments – at $1000 up front and $100 a month. Ross said he had written to the IRC claiming payment to Potts would ‘result in ďŹ nancial hardship’ to himself and Tucker as directors. Ross

Cr Ross Tucker, who has taken The Echo to court.

told the court it would ‘hurt’ him to pay out $50 a month because his house renovations were running overbudget at $100,000 plus. Michelle Campbell, the Department of Industrial Relations solicitor who prosecuted Potts’s case against Comptran, conďŹ rmed Potts’s vehicle log book and diary showed she had worked fulltime. Evidence from Melissa Begg, the solicitor who negotiated for Potts in late 1999 and early 2000, also contradicted Ross’ version of events. Begg claimed that after Comptran agreed to a settlement of $4000 on November 25, there was a breakdown in c o m m u n i c at i o n . R o s s accused her of ‘leaking’ information to The Echo, she said. Begg told the court that Comptran paid the $4000 two days before a writ of execution was served. Key witness Leanne Potts opened her evidence saying she worked on commission for a trial period of only two weeks. After that, the former sales rep told the court, she worked full-time for The Star.

Reduced to tears Potts was twice reduced to tears under cross-examination in the NSW Supreme Court last week. She told the court she

wasn’t motivated by revenge when she gave The Echo details of a 1999 industrial court judgment which found The Star’s proprietors Ross Tucker and Harold Ross had underpaid her by $7042. ‘They were prominent businessmen. They knew exactly what they were doing to me.They closed [The Star] two days after my money was due. They knew I had no money for lawyers. The moment I backed off, they re-opened,’ Potts said. Potts was the ďŹ nal defence witness in a three week trial that heard wildly differing versions of events. Potts told the court that during the four months in 1997 she worked full time at The Star she was paid between $250 and $420 a week. She said that when she complained to Tucker about two Jobstart employees who earned more than her and ‘weren’t getting much advertising’, he ‘yelled at me and told me I was being unreasonable’. Tucker had previously denied ever yelling or swearing at Potts or anyone else.

Yelling match Potts said that on her last day she had ‘a ďŹ ve-minute yelling match’ with Graham Waters, one of the Jobstart employees and she left. Later, in a meeting with Ross and Tucker at Ross’s house she claimed Tucker was ‘quite outraged’, banged his ďŹ st on a glass table and yelled at her ‘You don’t run this ofďŹ ce, I do.’ Potts consistently denied giving Tucker and Ross an ultimatum that they sack Waters or she would leave. Despite relentless crossexamination by Tucker’s counsel Tim Hale SC, Potts maintained her version of what happened when she asked for her job back several days later. She said when she told Tucker she had three children and it was nearly Christmas, Tucker yelled at her: ‘I don’t give a f‌ about you or your children or what time of the f‌ing year it is.’ When Hale put it to her that it was a ‘complete fabrication’ Potts replied, ‘That’s just rude. I’m telling the truth.’ Potts told the court she was ‘really upset’ about a Star article which blamed her for the paper’s closure and worried about ‘what it would do to me in my current employment’. Potts said she was happy with Fast Buck$’s article because ‘finally someone’s going to see my side of it’. Acting Justice Patten is will hear final submissions next week.

Comment

Does federal Labor have a chance? Vol 20 #05

June 21, 2005

A wasted strategy Byron Shire ratepayers deserve an explanation as to why a draft strategy presented to Councillors was entirely unsatisfactory to their needs. Consultants get paid well compared to most people in this Shire and Council does not have deep pockets. Councillors voted 9-0 last week to reject a draft retail strategy prepared by Stephen Fletcher and Associates Pty Ltd. Council’s planning staff had recommended putting the strategy on public exhibition. Councillors were comprehensively damning in their reasons for rejecting the strategy. In their resolution to reject they cited a lack of information on areas zoned for commercial use; a lack of information regarding the levels of turnover in town centres; the presentation and format of the document; the lack of effective consultation of the business community; and the paucity of detail to define the strategic actions recommended in the report. It is extraordinary to think the business community was not adequately consulted in the preparation of a retail strategy. The Councillors were not alone in their concerns. The chambers of commerce at Byron Bay, Brunswick Heads, Mullumbimby and Bangalow all found the document inadequate. Among other points, Byron Bay chamber expressed its dissatisfaction with the short time given for discussion and consideration, and that a five to ten year strategy is short-sighted. Brunswick Heads chamber noted the ‘superficiality of assessment’ in the strategy given the data available on Brunswick’s retail sector. Mullumbimby chamber was concerned with the lack of analysis of the effect of moving a major supermarket (Mallams) to the edge of the town centre and the limited proposals in relation to the impact of future visitor trends on the town. In a short submission Bangalow chamber said the strategy failed ‘to adequately deal with the objectives for the study’ and ‘relies on statistics which are outdated’. It was not a case of Council-bashing on the chambers’ part, either. They all expressed an interest to work with Council on getting the right retail strategy. Planning staff seem generally unperturbed by the chambers’ comments. On the points raised by chambers the staff comment is almost unfailingly ‘no amendment to the draft strategy is proposed’. So is the staff all right and the chambers all wrong? It seems unlikely. Perhaps more disturbingly, the staff notes the draft strategy ‘does not address social or economic impacts’ of the retail sector in Byron Bay, as this is covered in the settlement strategy. If there are not relevant data to produce a worthwhile retail strategy, then how can this be so? So at whose feet does the stuff-up lie? Did the consultants just not do a good job? Were Councillors too vague in their original resolutions? Did staff not give the consultants an adequate brief? Perhaps Mayor Jan Barham and general manager Pamela Westing could put their heads together and come up with some answers for ratepayers who would rather see the money spent on roads and community facilities than on a strategy which gives us nothing and takes us nowhere.

W

hat does Labor’s electoral tsunami in the Northern Territory mean? That up there the good folk were unusually grateful that Clare Martin posed nude in fourinch heels for a worthy cause? That Dennis Burke, who may at this writing have lost his seat, was just too nasty, gross, half-arsed, enumerate and foul-hearted for even rednecks to vote for? Something larger, I think. For the usual political rule, that you win office first by a big amount, and then by less, and then by less each time thereafter until you lose it, has been turned upside down by Carr, Beattie, Bacon, Bracks, Gallop, Stanhope and Martin who at each new election improved their initially narrow Labor majorities. This must mean that Liberal voters, whose average age is about sixty-two, are growing old and dying, and any Labor leader with a plausible personality and no 9/11 scare or big war to keep him off the front pages, will tend to win. Is Beazley plausible? Oh yes. Were Crean and Latham? No. Crean looked like the night clerk in a temperance hotel, and Latham like a proselytising Scientologist in a pedestrian tunnel. Will Labor win federally, then? Some say not. But these are the same experts who said Carr, Beattie, Bacon, Bracks, Martin, Stanhope and Rann – and, indeed, Bob Hawke – would do well but not quite make it. Sooner or later the obvious happens, and the torturers of children get voted out of office and put on trial in The Hague. You wait and see.

I

t now seems Doug Wood’s ‘rescue’ was a brazen double-cross of the usual American kind: you turn up at the place appointed for the handover and then you start suddenly firing off weapons and shouting go go go and move it motherfucker to make the job look difficult, or heroic. Ever y stor y demands a Hollywood ending in these Murdochised hot summers, and a ransom paid to honourable men for a well-treated captive whom they then let go as a story lacks narrative tension, and feels, well, unAmerican, and

Saddam’s statue came down were done by the Americans – in midnight house invasions and gunpoint ‘arrests’ of ordinary men and boys they then took to Abu Ghraib to be tortured, shamed, obscenely mocked and sometimes killed but more often let go without apology, explanation or compensation far from their home cities. How many wives and brothers waited like Doug Wood’s family for ‘evidence of life’ and hope of release, begging American commanders for mercy in vain? Probably no more

This must mean that Liberal voters are growing old and dying, and any Labor leader with a plausible personality will tend to win. by Bob Ellis must therefore be sexed up somehow, retrospectively. What a hateful nation it is entirely. I also bet that the plane that ‘crashed’ on 9/11 in that Pennsylvania field was actually shot down by American fighters and the whole story of brave, angry passengers wrestling fanatical hijackers over the joystick was made up retrospectively likewise – by, probably, the selfsame Hollywood discards that later sexed up Private Lynch; because the plain truth, that she was calmly handed over by decent, merciful, dedicated Iraqi doctors, wouldn’t do as a headline and so was changed, because it said good things of the enemy. It’s probably worth noting, too, by those who think wartime kidnapping ‘monstrous’ or ‘evil’ that the first kidnappings in Iraq after

T

hings change in interesting ways. It’s no longer fashionable for Mark Steyn or Christopher Hitchens or Tim Blair to mock those who once cursed the Iraq war, and to wear a button saying ‘Friend of the War’ or ‘I’m Backing Bush’ is now unthinkable, for even Andrew Bolt. So I’ve decided to raise the temperature a bit by publishing a list of wellknown people who I think vote Liberal. If it causes them shame, anguish and the loss of old friends and public esteem then all I can say is repent, and change your ways. If I’m wrong they can write a

letter to the editor and say why they’re so emotionally devastated by the charge, and why voting Liberal is such a heinous thing. If they’re proud of it they should give their eccentric reasons. Silence for, say, three months will be taken as glum, submissive, mortified confession. Andrew Bolt. Libby Gore. Sally Loane. Julie McCrossen. Jacinta Tynan. Garry McDonald. Paul Kelly the journalist not the singer. Laur ie Oakes. Der r yn Hinch. Tim Blair. Pru Goward. Paul McDermott. Paul Hogan. Paul Sheehan. Michael Duffy. Russell Skelton. John Lyons. Frank and Miranda Devine. Sol Lebovic. Helen Dalley. Catherine Lumby. Malcolm McGregor. Gerard Henderson, who used to be John Howard’s chief of staff, and the failed Liberal candidate Alan Jones. To this could be added the late Graham Kennedy, Ruth Cracknell, Paul Lyneham and Andrew Olle. One way you could tell was the way they used the phrase ‘these people’ to describe refugees coming here in leaky boats, or the lofty phrase ‘the Prime Minister’ instead of the dread aromatic defamation ‘John Howard’ I’ll put the list on my website adding plausible further names as they are sent in (pray omit Piers Akerman who I know for a fact votes Labor) and subtracting what I mercifully judge to be sincere denials. This is how McCarthyism worked in the fifties: wild accusations, bitter denials and ruined careers for generations thereinafter. Isn’t it fun?

Dumping garbage All very well to rubbish the rural garbage service (Echo news, June 14), but if garbage collection for rural residents is not convenient and economical we will continue to have garbage brought into town and illegally dumped into Council’s street bins. Every day, out-of-towners can be observed sneaking to off-load their garbage from the boots of their cars. Overowing bins spilling out contents in the streets and parks is not a pretty sight, and can be a nasty smell. We really need Council’s planned garbage collection service, please don’t rubbish it.

B-double terror I’m writing in response to Charles MacFarland’s letter in last week’s Echo defending B-doubles. I’m currently on my L plates hoping to receive my P plates early next year. At the moment I drive around with my boyfriend Adam.We travel to Lismore at night a lot. One night we nearly rolled down the face of a hill because of a B-double taking a corner widely. Sometimes I start to wonder if we are going to make it to Lismore. The amount of B-doubles on the roads at the moment is absolutely ridiculous. The drivers don’t sleep, they don’t stop, and it’s not their fault. They have strict deadlines and if they’re late to their destination then their pay gets

Thank you to Peter Olson for your letter (May 24) regarding J Howard’s budget to single parents. I was critical regarding single parents until unfortunately I became one myself. I was working full-time a year ago and also my extra child support income wasn’t bad at that time either. Life was OK. Then I had to give up my fulltime job because my mother was becoming too elderly and sick to mind my children. Nowadays, I work at whatever I can part-time and casual, learning how to fix up machinery, car etc. In the holidays I even worked out west on a property. In my

spare time I usually grow vegies, we make everything from home-made pasta to ice-cream. Next, I’m renovating our chook pen. I do not drink, smoke, go out, or buy clothes. I am not complaining, at least we are living somewhere. On holidays, we go camping because it is cheap. The good thing out of all of this is that my children are learning how to make do, recycle and ďŹ x up, like they used to in the old days. They will grow up better people. The Commonwealth Bank of Australia on their internet site says, ‘The Australian Institute of Family Studies

estimated that the average ten-year-old costs $190 per week and that’s before additional expenses such as holidays, new furnishing, private education or even a music lesson.’ The Child Support Agency gives me $150 per month and in return I give $25 per week from my family allowance to my ex. This is legal, so the professionals tell me. As I said before, I am not complaining – at least we are not surrounded by bombs etc and the sky is always blue. From the Labor Party’s media stint on May 12, Tanya Plibersek says, ‘Instead of helping vulnerable families,

the Howard government is punishing their children by taking food off the table and clothes off their backs. 88% of sole parent families are headed by women. 92% of parenting payments (single) recipients are women. ‘The centrepiece of the welfare changes for single parents in the budget is a payment cut of up to $44.30 a fortnight. J Howard and P Costello’s sixth birthday present for a child in these families is a cut of $22 a week to their family income. ‘Violence programs have been watered down, even though the government’s own commissioned research shows

that the biggest single health risk for women is domestic violence which costs Australia a staggering $8 billion per year.’ It is unfortunate that single parents will be hit. Finally, I would just like to say thank you to Peter Olson for understanding, also thanks to those people who have helped my children and I, for which I am truly grateful, I do not know what I would do without them. I thank God for what I have got, and appreciate the simple things in life, and take one day at a time.

cut. This then forces them to drive all day and night resulting in innocent lives being taken. You say that B-doubles are a good thing; yeah they may be better for the environment than trains. But is the environment worth sacriďŹ cing lives for a deadline? I mean at least trains aren’t on the road putting people’s lives in danger. I would surely support your argument if B-doubles were to slow right down and were to stop once in a while. I do agree with you when you say ‘I’d rather share a four lane superhighway with x amount of B-doubles than twice the amount of normal trucks.’ But until these superhighways are built then the big, scary B-doubles should be kept right off the roads. My father used to travel to Ballina early in the morning to go ďŹ shing, now he won’t go. The reason is the large amounts of B-doubles on the road, it’s just too dangerous. I mean, come on, I’m sure

most of you out there are scared to death of all these huge B-doubles taking over our roads. You’re right, most of the Byron Shire is supporting the four lane highways because they value their lives, but I’m sure many including myself are against all the B-doubles on the road. In conclusion at the end of the day we all have to face the facts with the lack of trains running that they’re going to stay on the roads, no matter how much we object to it. Maybe just maybe we might be able to keep our own lives safe with the new highways.

anything? Because the sand comes in tides and from my experience the tide for sand has a ďŹ ve year cycle in this area. Recently released info from the university of NSW on one of Sydney’s northern beaches puts the sand tide rhythm at four to seven years. We have had a few good years for sand, let’s use it to strengthen the dunes now while we can. Otherwise we will be trying for emergency action when the sand tide goes out, and we all know how much the Byron Shire Council loves that! Use it or lose it, folks.

(together with the possible use of depleted uranium munitions?), yet there has been hardly a whisper in the Australian media. Fourteen peace and environment-loving people have already been arrested for protesting but again, hardly a media mention. During this period, two US sailors allegedly have been arrested in Rockhampton for possessing 11kg of amphetamines and, whereas Schapelle Corby continuously hits the headlines regarding 4kg of marijuana, the US military’s drug pushers escape public mention. The ‘invisibility’ of these events represents another cover-up of preparations to involve Australia in another lunatic illegal escapade since the ‘shock and awe attack’ on Baghdad. Are these practice manoeuvres targeted towards a future foray into Syria, Iran or North Korea? Only time will tell because one thing we can all be certain about is that our government will be lying yet again. Department of ‘Defence’

evangelists have been busy in the Rockhampton region spruiking the line that local business will benefit to the tune of millions of dollars but they studiously abstain from mentioning the host of social ills that bedevil the presence of US bases in places such as Okinawa, Costa Rica and elsewhere in the world, namely prostitution, sexually transmitted diseases, child abuse, drug pushing, assaults and even murder. Australian US military bases and home ports are no different. All Australians should be alert and alarmed at the joint military developments with the US on our land and seas. It is nothing less than our participation in state sponsored terrorism!

those who believe Monsanto and other chemical companies of the same ilk’s bullshit propaganda. Have you ever heard of the Bradley method of bushregeneration Andy? No, I didn’t think so. Herbicide use is the lazy gardener’s and bush-regenerator’s tool. The Andy Erskines and Brad Greens of the world need to take a good hard look at themselves and then go and sit in a rainforest for a day, or better still a week. Then write back to me and (in those famous words) please explain what a bloody weed is? Stop poisoning the planet, or if you’re too lazy to do that, just keep reading Geoff Dawe’s letter (June 14) till it hurts, OK? Paul Brecht

Mullumbimby Q To answer some of the questions in last week’s letters: As co-caretaker of a 100 acre bush property, I have spent many hours over many years dealing with invasive weeds and never resorted to using chemicals to control and/or eradicate them. I have a very good idea of the weed problem and as a member of the Upper Clarence Environment Network was partly responsible for a hefty grant being made to local landcare groups and landholders to begin eradicating cat’s claw vine which grows along the banks of the Rocky and Clarence Rivers, strangling trees, causing soil erosion and river siltation. I

lobbied the appropriate authorities, researched, studied the vine, mapped the areas it inhabited, photographed it in all its different stages, documented the year to year destruction, wrote to newspapers and prepared submissions for a couple of years before the grant was made. The network was actually formed by local members of the North Coast Environment Council to support the work I did on many issues in the Upper Clarence. My environmental credentials go back many years and probably outweigh my critics. As for ROAR putting its money where its ‘meow’ is, unlike the people we are up against, ROAR does not have any money. I meet all expenses and have been too overworked to find time to apply to any local businesses likely to fund us. Unlike many of the people I am up against, I do not get paid for the work I do and have also sacrificed my career so that I can work for the planet. I have better things to do than to weed an acre of land somewhere in the Shire to prove a point. I work on many issues besides RoundUp and at present am supporting Sea Shepherd to raise funds for a much needed boat to be able to go out and protect our Humpbacks and Minkes when the Japanese begin their intended slaughter. Who is Brad Green talking about when he says ‘rather than sit back and do nothing’? As for his assertions about coffee and RoundUp,

I challenge him to drink a cup of RoundUp and then tell me how he feels and yes, ROAR is concerned about other chemicals. We have begun with RoundUp as it is being sprayed in our immediate environment, whereas most of the others drift in from surounding agricultural land. Also people can protect themselves from all of the other things he mentioned, but not RoundUp when it is sprayed in our streets and along our roadsides. Another point, most ROAR members suffer from chemical sensitivity and are so adversely affected by

RoundUp, that they do not have the energy to go and weed a patch of land. ROAR is not meowing, we are coping with the ‘catty’ remarks. Ashiya Austin

Byron Bay

Kite surfing In response to Bob Naish’s letter (June 14), I am sure some kite surfers are ‘OK and just wanting to have fun’, but hopefully not at the expense of the public’s safety. The danger at Byron Bay’s populated beaches could arise with kite sails out of control or difficult manoeuvring around

An appeal from the Nicholas sculptor This letter is an appeal to the people who smashed the Nicholas Shand Memorial, or to any one that knows them and could pass on the gist of this letter to them. I understand that a sculpture is an easy target and you can break it ‘just because you can’. It’s something to do, seems a good idea at the time. I also understand that as many people that loved Nicholas there maybe just as many people who disliked him. However, this is not him. It is a likeness in cement and steel.

"

It is also a job, it is work for me as the sculptor, it is something I was asked to do and I took on the work as you would take on a job. It is many months of hard physical work, and in this case, being a memorial portrait, very emotional work. I am not that young and not that well, but this is my art, this is what I do and have been doing for many years. I have many public sculptures in Sydney and I felt privileged to be asked to take on this work, one reason being it was for Mullumbimby. I did not know Nicholas

Shand but through this work I came to meet his family (Sebastian posed while I used his nose to model from) and his friends. Needless to say this destruction is upsetting for many people but it is also just such a lot of hard work. Come on, guys, as one human being to another, put yourself in my place, how would you feel if something you had made and spent hours over was smashed, or stolen, or broken. I realise by writing this letter I may be either talking to a brick wall or even fuel-

ling more antagonism but please, be proud to have a public sculpture in Mullumbimby (three times that I have been to the sculpture there were tourists having their photo taken with him, one from Melbourne, one from Coffs Harbour and one from the central coast), and you should be proud to have a memorial. No matter what you think of Nicholas, this is a memorial and it is being desecrated. Let him (and me) rest in peace. Loui Fraser

the swimmers and beach walkers, by the increasing number of beginners learning to kite surf there. I would think an IKA instructor would not be teaching at Byron’s main beach, because they would be aware of the NSW Waterways Protection Legislation, which requires kite surfers to keep a 30 metre distance from any other person. As you say, Bob, ‘kite surfing can be dangerous, like walking in front of a car and learning should never be upwind of the public.’ Due to the crowded beaches of Byron Bay, these safety precautions would not be possible. If you read my June 7 letter again, you will see that I am not asking for a ban on kite surfing. I am asking the Byron Shire Council to designate safe swimming beaches for the most populated beaches. The State Waterways Regulations do not allow kite surfing at designated swimming and surfing beaches. You will see why if you go down to Byron Bay’s main beach and watch those kite sails dangling over the heads of the beach walkers. If these beginners, surfing the water’s edge, lose control of their kite, the powerful lines can unexpectedly entangle another person; and if wind is involved, there are serious problems. Those lines have at least a 100kg pulling force. Kite-

boarding.com states that ‘board kite lines are dangerous and can result in the loss of a finger or limb.’ At least 100 people have been seriously injured from this new sport, including many beach walkers. As for me personally, I am not ‘in fear’ because I do not frequent these crowded beaches. But I am concerned about the children who play in the calm waters of the Bay and the beach strollers who are not aware of the danger from the innocent looking kites skimming along the shore line. I wonder why the Byron Council has given commercial permits to operate a teaching and kite board rental business at The Pass, a place where the NSW Marine Legislation cannot be met. Maybe the council should designate The Pass as a kite surfing beach only and ban all swimmers and beach walkers, as a protection. Or maybe the kite surfing business could operate in your kite surfing area of South Golden Beach, which could create some lucrative commercial opportunities for the isolated northern beaches of the Shire. And, Bob, thanks for the invitation, but I don’t want to ‘become hooked’, not on those lines! Lois Hunt

ReGenesis and Main Arm development Having read the ReGenesis newsletter that I found in my letter box and the article in The Echo and as an ex committee member of the Byron Shire Rural Residential Strategy, I would like to comment about the ReGenesis proposal for Main Arm and the BSRRS in general. The council of 95 developed a greenprint based on ESD (ecologically sustainable development) which was to be the cornerstone of all future policy development. As idealistic as this may have seemed, the principles of ESD are becoming daily and increasingly more important as the planet is impacted upon by our consumer lifestyle and the exploding global population. In my opinion the BSRRS was a well considered document, which involved a seri-

ous amount of community consultation. It was set up to encourage a new type of rural subdivision with the principles of ESD as its cornerstone. Its aim was to encourage clustered development around already existing village areas, where there was some infrastructure in place, eg better roads, a school, a bus service, a community centre, a shop etc. The idea of clustered development makes perfectly good sense, it ensures that the housing can be located on a particular piece of land so that the integrity of the agricultural and environmental parts of the land are not destroyed My understanding of what ReGenesis is about, developed through conversations with people involved with the company, and reading

various articles, is that they are a company who are genuinely committed to the pursuit of best practice in ecological design, of which one would have to admit, are few and far between. The opposition to the Regenesis proposal in Main Arm and to their wind generation scheme in Myocum is a NIMBY syndrome, and the suggestion that all of a sudden there will be 300 houses in Main Arm a scare tactic. I think we desperately need some new models for both rural and urban housing, and when on the rare occasion someone comes along with a good vision, we need to embrace that. Change is inevitable but good change is preferable to bad. In my opinion it would be far smarter for the community of Main Arm to

The horror of whale slaughter Q I’m so desperately unhappy about what we’re doing to the animals on our planet. Did anyone else see on ABC TV what the Japanese ďŹ shermen (slaughterers) were doing to the dolphins in their narrow hunting bay? I reckon that that has scarred me for life – visions of cruelty like that burn into my brain; the dolphins, highly intelligent beings being murdered so violently. We’re wicked, bloody wicked. The bloody holy dollar again. There are so many instances of human cruelty to our other creatures that I’ve given up trying to remember them all. Are we destined to remain ignorant parasites forever or can we overcome our misunderstanding and mistreatment of our fellow travellers – our different but equal earth dwellers?

We tried to explain how this could happen and why, but it didn’t seem to make any sense, especially to an eight-year-old child. We discussed getting involved in the protest of the resuming of whaling and how we could do this. The very next week The Echo enlightened us to a very good opportunity for expression from a child’s point of view. We fully support our daughter’s passion for the survival of these great creatures of the oceans! What a fantastic thing to offer the children of our region and anywhere really.

sands of visitors and locals alike over the last 19 years does not seem to count for anything to our local council who is in charge of managing this property. The current owner (well known local identity, Peter Saulwick) had the foresight to open this cafĂŠ and has managed to continue to do so in a very environmentally sensitive way over the last 19 years. It is a tribute to him that the cafĂŠ has managed to maintain its popularity and still retain the ‘low key’ atmosphere necessary to preserve this great spot.The food and service has always been great and just as importantly, consistently so. However, it seems instead of allowing Mr Saulwick to continue operating by renewing the lease option available, Byron Council has put the property up for grabs literally to the highest bidder. We have all seen the direct result of this practice in the recent past with businesses having to ramp up prices and overdevelop the facility just to earn a living. This scenario would not seem to be the best outcome for this truly beautiful and environmentally sensitive location that could only have been created in Byron Bay and could only have survived for so long with sensitive management from Mr Saulwick. I urge Byron Shire Council to continue to do the right thing and renew the lease

option of The Beach CafĂŠ to Peter Saulwick. In doing so they will not only allow a local to continue to support their family but to sensitively care for this unique icon of Byron Bay for both locals and visitors alike. Give a local a fair go. Don Osborne

Kids today What is wrong with kids today? They all behave, dress right and say no. Here we are with hidden wars continuing throughout the world, media controlled by public relations and no one is screaming. The student union is being dismantled, fees are rising, our universities privatised and the kids are thinking only of it when their parking runs out. I’ve been force fed the diatribe of seventies radicalism. I’ve seen the docos on the moratorium marches and the Aquarius festival (my Dad’s the one with the long hair making the straw bale yurt). Now I want my shot. Shut up the boomers once and for all with the most twisted, radical generation ever. But I don’t think I’ll ďŹ nd it here. If universities are no longer the bastions of layabouts and fringe dwellers where is? TAFEs, Job Network agencies, bus stops? It seems the seventies student movement was helped by free education, large numbers of youths, well publicised causes and unstoppable

nents, however, point out the hypocrisy of Australia’s opposition to whaling. They say you kill and eat your national symbol. Kangaroos live in families in the wild and are gentle and intelligent mammals too. The meat for human consumption comes largely from females as the meat is tastier and as a result the joeys in the pouch and the young at foot also die in a very cruel way. Red kangaroos have suffered terribly in the drought and their average age is now less than two years and yet the slaughter continues unabated, just as it did with the whales in the sixties and the koalas in the twenties, until few were left. We stopped whaling in Byron Bay only because the whales ran out. Australia was one of the strongest advocates of whaling until 1977 when both Malcolm Fraser and Gough Whitlam changed their positions virtually overnight as a result of overwhelming public opposition. The Japanese won’t stop killing whales as a result of Australian protests. If we halted the mass commercial slaughter of kangaroos then

our moral position would certainly be stronger but even then they wouldn’t stop. No outside pressure will stop them. The only way they will stop is when the Japanese media tell the truth to the Japanese people about the high levels of mercury in whale meat. One scientist estimated that the mercury in just 300 grams of whale meat could kill a child and yet whale meat is served in schools! Japanese scientists themselves have undertaken the research to show that whale meat is dangerous to eat and yet the media haven’t adequately informed the people. If they knew the truth they would stop eating whale meat overnight and the killings would stop. As the slaughter is set to increase, the Japanese can expect another epidemic of Minimata disease. Mercury causes gross birth defects and, at lower levels, intellectual impairment. The Australian media helped stopped Australia’s whaling at Albany. The Japanese media can stop Japan’s whaling.

idealism. Our generation, nil from four on that front. Kids are too worried about racking up a huge HECS debt to worry about third world debt. The majority of the students don’t care about fee increases in Australian universities because their dollar goes far over here. The corruption of the media by marketing means that it is harder and harder to get issues on their agenda. Maybe Australia was someplace to optimistic about in the Seventies. Gough was handing out money to anyone. A good job was just a phone call away and pot grew on trees. But three terms of HoWARd,the dole Gestapo and McJobism is the reality of today’s youth. How can youth feel empowered, self reliant and in control of their future? I’ll ask my Dad.

process found out, and what the majority of residents in Lennox already knew. Namely that the supply of land already zoned for urban release in Lennox Head is sufďŹ cient to ensure a high growth rate over the coming ten years without the need to rezone any urban investigation parcels at all. However, contrary to the ‘tread softly’ approach favoured by residents with my support, the Council majority has recently decided to allow additional new land rezoning to recommence. Consequently, we can expect a more rapid rate of increase to Lennox Head’s population. Ballina Council’s strategic planners tell us that there is a queue of developers waiting to bring more land onto the Lennox market now that our moratorium of four years has been lifted. The neutral point I was making is that an urban development west of Lennox may not take the pressure off anything, given Council’s present policy of land release. How Ballina Council deals with those pressures and the provision of infrastructure seems clear to be the subject of a future debate.

A

soft, vulnerable piece of art, I sit on the southbound train on my return from LISTE 05 BASEL. I sit in the reverse direction of our destination, Zeurich. I never travel backward on a train, it makes me nauseous, but not this time; this time I want a different perspective. I look down at my notebook ‘When there is nothing left – there is always art.’ What is LISTE 05 BASEL? It is the International Young Art Fair that was founded ten years ago. From June 13 to 19 LISTE 05 exhibits 48 galleries from 22 countries. Its dedication to young art covers galleries that are less than five years old and artists generally under 40. It nurtures contemporary movements as well as emerging art from countries not yet in the focus of the international art scene. Some of the new galleries presented this year are from Africa, Israel, New Zealand, Scandinavia, Lithuania, Slovenia and Poland. What was LISTE 05 Basel like? I experienced the Art Fair as an extreme duality – the beauty and the beast. Excitement for the fresh exposure of cultural stimulation on an international art platform and an encounter with my personal feelings of internal vulnerability. Art is highly subjective. I value that. As an overall generalisation though, I was surprised at the varying standards of the exhibited artworks. Some of it was extremely amateur, and in contrast with this, some extremely dynamic and talented. The artist who created a sense of movement within me was Amie Dicke from Amsterdam, Holland. Her contemporary style combined images of models with ink drawing and patterns to create a sense of vampire. Christian Andersen, also from Amsterdam, Holland, presented an

untitled trilogy from his 2005 series ‘Blüten aus Asche’ (Bloom from Ashes). Using pencil/ink and paper, he created ambience in his artwork that exuded a subtle, yet distinct depth. The simplicity of Matias Faldbakken’s piece ‘untitled murphy’s law’ caught my attention.Within a large white space lay one grey line of text: ‘MURPHY’S CONSTANT: Matter will be damaged in direct proportion to its value.’ I felt this emotive message, one that a lot of Byron-ites would surely resonate with. Matias Faldbakken is from Oslo and his works are often described as ‘conceptual vandalism’. We exited the grounds of LISTE 05 and walked through the late night street to the after party. We entered a deserted industrial area on the border of Switzerland and Germany and headed for an old building that once was an eatery for German train workers.This area, NT/Areal, is now occupied by alternative arts and culture and lives as a party playground.

P

erformance art was taking place at the party. They were exploring serotonin, the chemical reaction that takes place in our brain to stimulate a sensation of happiness. I didn’t feel happiness in this moment. Now situated at the bar drinking tequilas, I questioned the subject of art. Is it about happiness? Art is life, it exists to inspire and provoke a feeling; a sensation that evokes an emotion or a thought. Art is definitely subjective. I sat at the bar in reflection. I am living in the foreign city of Zeurich, attempting to communicate in another language, with no financial security and engaged in a Swiss love affair that is evoking deep personal wounds and grief. Within the vastness of this international art fair of contemporary disposition, I was

encountering the extremities and contrast of life.The room was filled with contrast. People, many people, diverse realities and nationalities. Amid this array lay my personal perception of the world, the very key to any artist’s experience and expression. The train arrives into Zeurich HB Mainstation. I depart and find myself slowly walking the path between the busy Austellungstrasse and the active Limmat river. The rain dropping steadily upon me, my toes squishing in the water in my saturated boots. The sound of jeans rubbing between walking thighs creating the beat I travel to. I allow my head to fall backward, my face tilted toward a vast, unknown sky, rain droplets playing target competitions to see who can get one in my now open mouth. An old man walks by – stops – and looks at me. I glance his way, expressionless, with a slight nod of my head. Two hundred metres further, an old man drives slowly by, asking me if I need a lift somewhere? ‘Danke, nein’ I decline, expressionless, with a slight nod. Was it the same old man? And where would life flow if I took up the offer? A part of me wants to hop gracefully into his Citroen DS and chat about life. I don’t know this man though, is he safe or dangerous? Due to past experience and living in a society saturated with violence and fear, I deny myself this opportunity. Wonder. Forty five minutes later I arrive at a friend’s empty apartment. I let myself in. I remove my drenched boots. I lie on his couch. I smoke cigarettes. I watch the shapes and forms of static objects and moving smoke rings. I take a bath and soak in the foam that creates pictures – a reel life film. Dogs, aliens, men – shapeshifting. This too is art. Das ist kunst.

Council Roundup with Michael McDonald

Fervent petitioners besiege the gates of pain Amazingly our councillors got through it all. Lawyers, private town planners and special interest groups were out in force at the start of the meeting on Tuesday last week seeking public access on ďŹ ve issues, all of them meaty. Mullum lawyer Wroth

Wall was first cab off the rank. arguing on behalf of his client, Kokee Matthews, that Council should not list as environmental heritage a blazed tree on his client’s land at Ocean Shores. For those not in the know, ‘blazing’ a tree means cutting away the bark at a certain point and perhaps marking it with symbols, in this case surveyor’s marks believed to be made early on in the 20th century. Mr Wall offered the extraordinary suggestion that a Council ofďŹ cer ‘stands to gain beneďŹ t’ from having the tree listed. More extraordinarily no Councillors asked Mr Wall to elaborate, nor did the GM Pamela Westing object to the remark. Perhaps in the current international climate of corruption, such matters do not twitch the eyebrow muscles. The tree was at best unhealthy and at worst dying, asserted Mr Wall, and in any case would provide ‘an invisible monument to the subdivision history of Ocean Shores’ out of the public eye. The Councillors remained unconvinced and went with the staff recommendation to list the tree. Next up was the controversial Keyes Gardens 14

Belongil-Byron Bay or vice versa. One objector, Nadia Bandani, speaking on behalf of architect Ian McKay, forecast that Vaughan would ‘reap many millions of dollars’ from the development. There is some amusement in the fact that Mr McKay, probably not short of a quid himself, is the architect on Eddie Phillips’s proposed grand pile on Lighthouse Road.

lot community title (CT) subdivision at Coorabell. Consultant planner Rob Doolan, who once had the pleasure of being a Byron councillor, gave an update on a meeting with Federal residents and assured councillors ‘offsite benefits’ – such as a public walkway – would be completed before onsite works. Objectors to the Keyes Garden proposal, Hilary Bone and John Nardi, stressed the trafďŹ c impact and the loss of agricultural land. Ms Bone questioned the transparency of the planning process and said there had been inadequate consultation. Councillors voted unanimously to approve the subdivision, adding the prohibition of cat ownership to the staff condition prohibiting dogs.

A

long-running application for a two storey (some say three storey) house on Lighthouse Road, Byron Bay, was faintly praised by its consultant planner Malcolm Scott and damned by the chief objector Neil Morrison. As a planner Mr Scott offered the novel suggestion that ‘with ďŹ fty years of hindsight’ urban development ‘shouldn’t have been done’ in the vicinity, while Mr Morrison believed that all the sweeping staircase required was ‘an effigy of Scarlett O’Hara’ – to complete its dimensions as the local version of Tara, one assumes. Council knocked it back. As it was the proposed pied-a-terre of multimillionaire businessman and spa king Eddie Phillips, it has been given some space in the news pages. It was Pelion piled upon Ossa in terms of controversy w h e n u p c a m e Jo h n

Vaughan’s applications for a double storey dwelling and a 15 residential unit building on his narrow stretch of land running east to west on the seaward side of the railway line off Cavvanbah Street, Byron Bay. Mr Vaughan and Council have spent considerable time in the Land and Environment Court on this and other issues and on this one he got a win after several years, Councillors voting 6-3 to approve both DAs (Crs Staples, Lazarus and Westheimer opposed, though Lazarus was out of the chambers at the taking of the vote on the 15 units). Mr Vaughan objected to the condition requiring his weed removal work overseen by National Parks, noting wryly that Council itself had ten hectares nearby absolutely luxuriant in weeds. Objectors to the applications cited loss of littoral rainforest, effects of stormwater run-off and trafďŹ c impact, noting that Cavvanbah Street was already used as a ‘race track’ by motor ists heading

nyone wanting a cheap workout in the way of lifting weights need look no further than a Byron Shire Council agenda. One in each hand should help tone the biceps. Last week’s planning papers totalled 227 pages plus twice that in annexures.

ugh Ermacora, councillor from 1995 to 2004, addressed councillors on his court case brought against the refusal of his DA for two tourist cabins at Boogarem Road, high on the Koonyum range west of M u l l u m b i m b y. He described his DA’s progress as ‘a fairly shameful process’ taking over two and a half years. ‘If you want to be disadvantaged, become a councillor,’ Mr Ermacora said, asking Council not to defend the proceedings. He said the advice of the planner contracted by Council to handle the matter at arm’s length had been ignored and reneged upon by staff. Mr Ermacora got a partial win. Councillors voted 7-2, Mangleson and Lazarus against, to have the GM and planning director meet with the applicant ‘to seek to clarify the issues to reach an outcome agreeable to both parties’ before heading to court. Councillors also showed their disdain for a consultant’s report on a retail strategy, and that is dealt with in Comment on page 8. A list of legal proceedings contained in the agenda showed many of the usual plaintiffs appearing before Their Honours. Some developers in this Shire have deep pockets, and others are chained to the wheel of litigation in a manner worthy of Bleak House.

Choosing a musical adieu John Campbell There was a funeral recently in one of the Shire’s few remaining timber churches not converted into Ikea bungalows. The congregation belted out the classic, ‘bringing in the … , bringing in the …’ I’ve never known what they are bringing in – sheaves? sheiks? – but have always loved that hymn. Approaching rain made me think it was the sheets, so I hurried home to bring in my washing. It also led me to the obituaries in the Herald. I was looking for a name to use in a story. The ones you find there are much more convincing than anything you might make up. It was a bumper crop and I found myself daydreaming about all those secret lives. Cat Carer is too young to appreciate such morbid pleasures and reckons that it is, like, so mental. I try to explain to her that it is the ultimate in schadenfreude. Usually the notices are attended by bons mots – ‘in God’s care,’ ‘at peace with

the angels,’ (nobody is ‘burning in hell,’ but what are the odds?). My favourite was one octogenarian’s unique farewell from the grave. ‘Cheerio!’ It was the jaunty explanation mark that lifted me. What upbeat piece of music, I wondered, did he choose for his farewell? Personalised send-offs are huge now, though none of us would wish to be serenaded out of this vale of tears by anything so lamentable as Kamahl singing the Lord’s prayer, as he did at the service for Joh. Did you catch it? Geez it was crook. He sounded deader than the expeanut farmer. Still, it was no worse than the music at the Pope’s funeral – if ever an event cried out for the commentary of Roy and HG it was this. Neither was as touchyfeely as Lady Di’s. What a special moment when Elton squeezed in behind the organ in Westminster Abbey. Only for a fleeting second, when the old tart kicked off with ‘Goodbye … ’ did I think he was about to launch into ‘… yellow brick road…’ Proba-

bly more appropr iate though. ‘And they’ll televise yours for sure.’ Cat Carer can be really snide sometimes. Makes you wonder what the current mob have in mind, doesn’t it? The Member for Bennelong has probably got Sandy Scott booked, but Mr Bush is a bit of a dark horse. I might have been wrong about him after all. ‘Never misunderestimate me,’ he warned us. I had been convinced that Dubya was a complete philistine, but unexpectedly he has revealed himself as a true Renaissance man. Not only can he program his own iPod, he has ‘My Sharona’

A course for funeral celebrants and those interested in death on the loop! You can just see it, can’t you? Dubya and Rummy, exhausted after an intensive session of Bible study, unwinding with a number in the Oval Office and playing air guitar together. “M-m-m-my-Sharona!” Or, more dizzying, crooning as back-up Pips to Condie’s Gladys Knight. He’ll probably go for something by Johnny Cash. ‘Like, Don’t Take Your Guns To Town?’ Cat Carer has been working on her razor retorts since I started quoting her. I have pondered what I might play as posthumous DJ when it is my turn to bid adieu. I liked how JPY doing ‘Love Is In The Air’ at Graham Kennedy’s bash went down a treat, but couldn’t help suspecting that the King himself might have preferred a massed ‘faaaaaark!’ from the bereaved. You only have one stab at it, so getting it right is essential. Currently I am leaning towards ‘Sloop John B,’ but am hoping that I have plenty of time up my sleeve before I make my final decision.

One of the latest day trips out of Byron involved a group outing to Lismore funeral parlour William Riley & Son and then to the grounds and the chapel of the Lismore Lawn Cemetery and Crematorium. For the last ten years, Byron Bay has been on the cutting edge of death, dying and funerals, according to local funeral and wedding celebrant Zenith Virago, leading this reclaiming of the rite of passage at the end of life. ‘Just as we reclaimed Birth in the 80’s we have been reclaiming Death as a natural part of life, and having a meaningful and appropriate celebration, makes Byron not only a great place to live, but a great place to die,’ says Zenith. ‘Many people just won’t settle for less than a farewell to their loved one that honours them, and also offers some comfort to those left behind. Death is a natural part of life.’ Zenith has been practising and teaching people the

information and these skills for many years in this area, and offers this course in Byron Bay, as there are an increasing number of people who are interested in death and dying, and want to understand and familiarise themselves with how it all happens, before they need to deal with the situation for real. ‘During the past ten years, an increasing number and variety of people are seeing death as a rite of passage that they want to be involved in, and make it meaningful and appropriate for someone that they love,’ says Zenith. ‘Often family members are building the coffin and decorating it in a way that honours the person that has died. ‘There are many aspects to a funeral that when we get them right can make the loss and the grieving process easier.’ For further information on the course, Zenith can be contacted on 6684 8154, or zenith@linknet.com.

gettingintouchwithatenfo Last night I really tied one on. I don’t know what happened, but one bottle of chardonnay into the evening and I was drink dialling. Drink driving may be seen as a dangerous offence, but I’m sure that dialling under the inuence can have equally catastrophic consequences. I am still trying to remember who the hell I had that last 2 hour chat with, and why I woke up fully clothed in a tracksuit holding a block of cheese. My husband did tell me I was grate in bed, and now I know he meant it literally. At 5.30 this morning I rolled out of bed to ready myself for my dawn constitutional. After banging into the wall a few times I managed to crawl to the phone and dialled my walking partner. She sounded very sleepy when she

croaked hello, and I responded with a ‘Hi is that you?’ She says ‘Yes’. So I continue. ‘I don’t know if I am going to be able to go walking this morning. I got a bit pissed last night – and I’m feeling a bit rough, Russ watched the footy and I knocked off a bottle of wine, I don’t even remember going to bed, and I’ve woken up with this huge lump of cheddar.’ My friend listens attentively and then responds: ‘I think you have the wrong number.’ Oh. How embarrassing. My apologies to the woman who received my alcoholic confession in the wee hours of a winter morning. She patiently listened while I prattled on for a few minutes, even responding to my questions as she tried to work out who the frig I was. So with a heady

mix of alcohol and shame I decided to brave the walk after all – a ďŹ tting punishment for one’s stupidity. I met up with another girlfriend on the walk who had the bright idea that a quick swim at Little Watego’s was in order. You’ve got to be kidding me. I didn’t bring my swimmers. No towel. No need. It was a nude dip. My friends stripped off and ran to the water. I followed, hungover, freezing and now naked in full view of about a dozen tourists who had their whale watching wishes realised more fully than they could have ever hoped for. Not one white whale, but three Migloo’s frolicking in the surf. It was a beautiful thing. Although I did notice a surfer turn and paddle in the opposite direction.

INTERVIEW

Mandy Nolan has a two way with Tripod’s Gatesy about what it’s like being the third wheel of the act that’s been touted as the funniest musical comedy in the country if not the world!

SUPPORTED BY

Tripod are Australian comedy’s three headed miracle birth who have taken their silly songs and made a not so silly career out of it. With regular appearances on Rove, a featured spot on Skithouse, and the infamous Song in an Hour with Adam and Wil on Triple J, Gatesy, Scod and Yon have seen their nerdy little songs become as well loved as thongs. The three lads spend a lot of time touring, and one can only wonder how they manage to keep their three way relationship so darned fresh?!! ‘We’ve been together for 9 years, we have come close to breaking up on this trip! It’s been ridiculously stressful‌being stuck in the Tarago together. There have been some attempts to kill each other but we tend to get the bonding back on track with a bit of drinking. We argue but then we do have make-up sex. In some towns there’s little else to do. But I say, what happens on tour stays on tour.’ I’m speaking to Gatesy who’s secreted himself in a hotel cupboard in a desperate attempt to get some privacy for our chat. ‘I have locked myself in the spare room. Otherwise I start feeling really selfconscious and the guys listen in and say well, Gatesy you’re the one who tried to

have sex with me. It’s under wraps. People say I’m naive you know, but I don’t think so.’ The boys spend a good part of their tour working up new material, keen to maintain their comic edge by keeping their material fresh. The kind of media exposure through national radio and TV that Tripod have had can ‘burn’ a comic’s material necessitating new material for live gigs. ‘When we were doing Skithouse, we’d be working 5 days a week, and then still having to go out and do live shows. It was a killer, because you couldn’t go and do a song they’d already heard on the telly. Although, sometimes people don’t remember much at all ‌they are our favourite punters: the drunk ones.’ So where does Tripod draw its inspiration? ‘We’re pop culture addicts. When we were doing the JJJ song in an hour we were kind of forced to really stay abreast of topical stuff. We’d be so relieved after we’d done the song, it was always so early in the morning, but until we’d written it we’d be totally amped.’ ‘Our new show is called Self Saucing. Which is kind of funny because we got a crowd last night with this heckler who yelled out and then another heckler answered him. See, soon we’ll be so self saucing, we won’t even need to be there.’ A career in comedy just appeared for these self confessed nerds, it wasn’t necessarily something they were originally seeking to do, in fact they often prefer the tag ‘musi-

cian’, but generally, as Gatesy admits, that’s because it’s a better pickup line at parties. Tripod couldn’t come to Byron without ďŹ rst revealing their star signs – a little insight into the inner workings of these talented drop kicks. Scod, the romantic, well he’s a Leo/Virgo cusp (obviously gets the most on tour action), Gatesy’s a Virgo (so he gets to clean the Tarago) and Yon is Aries (he does most of the driving). Gatesy admits it’s all been pretty well a dream run for the boys: ‘We are so grateful because we have made this little world for ourselves‌we all had plans on doing something different, but here we are!

First things ďŹ rst. Don’t get caught out having to hear snippets about this play from those you know, as it will be a sellout show guaranteed. Secondly, all proďŹ ts go to CHILDREN OUT OF DETENTION (Chilout). Pressure Point – a very apt title for a play which explores the heady dynamics surrounding the enduring situation of the refugee in Australia. Six utterly believable characters

ďŹ ll the stage, one by one, with their story, their sadness, their hopes, their fears. This is a one woman show – and what a woman she is. Linda Rutledge provides the audience with a treat in the depth she shows at creating character. As monologues are considered to be the height of theatrical wizardry, Linda lets us all know who’s boss, and fast. The women she plays vary in character dramatically – from the oblivious Gold Coast pollie caught in a bind to the nurse on duty with the evilly elegant smile. Detainee, lawyer, wife and activist as well, the characters’ lives touch on power, and the lack thereof, in such a way that the viewer is left quite spellbound in the unfolding. The method for characterisation

of the show is YAT, a practical and systematic approach to characterisation that obviously works and a method studied by the actor, writer and director. Although originally conceived by a Jungian analyst and a Hungarian movement theorist, Swedish character dancer and teacher Yat Malmgren further formulated the process. Some of his students of the method include Sean Connery and Anthony Hopkins. The writer of Pressure Point, Hayley Katzen, has delivered a nearly awless work. To create writing so steeped in character and varied in emotional intensity relies on heart, human understanding and empathy. The script is of exceptional quality and shows the ďŹ nesse of the consummate writer. Pas-

sionate about people’s stories and social justice, Hayley illustrates this without being heavy handed. Her correspondence with an Algerian detainee for three years was one of the inspiring events which led her to write this outstanding piece. Owing to its complicated nature, a work such as this easily could have been misdirected. Alka’s attention to detail and desire for the layers of the work to shine individually gave the play real life. Timing was absolutely spot on and not a useless prop in sight. This play is the collaborative effort of three women who bring an issue of national signiďŹ cance to light in a way which leaves the audience asking themselves the same extreme question – ‘What can I do about it?’.

Poets from Dangerously Poetic Press will be featured in a free cultural evening of art, music and poetry at the TWEED RIVER ART GALLERY in Murwillumbah on Friday from 5.15 to 7:30pm. Featured poets will include Janice Bostok, (Murwillumbah’s internationally renowned haiku poet), Laura Jan Shore, Bev Sweeney, Max Ryan and special guest Margot Anthony, a classical pianist who will perform a selection of musical interludes. The featured artist at the museum is David Rankin as well as the show – Three Brothers. The evening will offer time to peruse the gallery, enjoy the cafÊ for light snacks and coffee and settle in for a rich performance of music and poetry. The gallery entrance is on Mistral Road off Tweed Valley Way. They can be contacted on 6670 2790.

Scod, Yon and Gatesy are Tripod – one of Australia’s most popular and distinctive comedy acts. For those who don’t know, Scod is the geeky one with the guitar and the glasses. Gatesy is the ‘Himbo’ plagued by self doubt. He sings well and wants to play the guitar. Yon is shorter; he’s weirder. The guys have been touring together for the past nine years, but claim they have never seen each other nude. The boys are renowned for their ability to create fresh material, and their new two act show, Self Saucing is testament to this – seeing the boys traverse the suburban badlands of Aussie Pop culture with nothing but a well tuned g string (on the guitar of course). This is the only comedy act who have jokes you can dance to. Tripod appear at the Bangalow A&I Hall on Thursday 30 June at 8pm.

Distinctive breaks present Y4K mixed by ALI B Distinctive breaks has enlisted the talents of British breaks don Ali B (fabric UK) for its next installment of the Y4K series, a hard call after the forward thinking mix put out by Phil K earlier in the year. Avoiding the temptation of dropping label tracks (from his

own air recordings) or purely exclusive new tracks from all his mates, this mix comes of totally refreshing for one main reason, it is heavily rooted in the funk. From his own release “ I see girls” under the Plan B mokier, to the awesome electro funk of the Housebreakerz the sound never gets too heavy in anyone direction, and while there quite a few familiar names (plumo dj’s, stantons, soul of man etc) mostly its new producers that get the limelight, and for good reason. Y4K nail it again. NOODLES

9OU ALWAYS FEAR WHAT YOU DON T UNDERSTAND

Batman doesn’t wear his undies on the outside in Christopher Nolan’s rambunctious but tightly woven prequel to the Caped Crusader’s career. Super-hero movies aren’t subtle, but here the mayhem combines with themes that will resonate among contemporary audiences. The great metropolis of Gotham is a glorious glittering sight in the nocturnal scenes that dominate, but the city is rotten with corruption. Playboy billionaire Bruce Wayne vows to cleanse it and liberate the poor and downtrodden. More threatening than bent officialdom, however, is the League of Shadows, a fanatical group based somewhere in Asia, like Al Quaida, whose mission is to bring the place down. Unlike the TV show, this is not an exercise in high camp, though it is leavened by dry one-liners delivered by a reliable cast, including old-stagers Michael Caine and Morgan Freeman. The apocalyptic climax is a ripper, leaving no doubt that Batman rules, OK? John Campbell

A minor prang involving a Chinese woman and detectives on their way to the scene of a crime sets up the finely threaded movie debut of director Pater Haggis (screenwriter of Million Dollar Baby). He takes a slice of LA life, high and low, and, in the manner of Robert Altman, tracks the movements of a number of disparate characters over the previous twenty-four hours, slowly exposing the interconnectedness of their lives. It is about race, misunderstanding, happenstance, moral compromise, conflict and the often torturous path that leads us to an appreciation of our common humanity. Among many stunning turnarounds, there is an incident that produces such a surge of unexpected relief that your heart will burst. Beautifully shot, superbly acted, spiked with provocative nigger jokes, coloured by an outstanding score from Mark Isham and paced to build imperceptibly to its emotional summing up, Crash is never predictable, totally real and unforgettable. John Campbell.

…ˆÂ?`Ă€iÂ˜ĂŠfn

Ian McEwan’s novels are models of less-ismore, which is not to say they are straightforward. Director Roger Michell (Notting Hill) captures the atmospherics of this psychological drama with naturalistic dialogue, tight closeups, rainy streets, hard sounds, deep shadows and a faithful adherence to the source, with the unforgettable opening scene horribly accurate. A green and pleasant picnic is shattered by a ballooning accident that has appalling repercussions. The relationship of Joe, a uni professor, and Claire, his sculptress partner, implodes when Jed, a stalker who was also there on that fateful day, intrudes on their lives. A slow burner, unsettling rather than frightening, with unnerving string accompaniments reminiscent of Hitchcock’s composer Bernard Herrmann, it moves inexorably to its horrific conclusion. Rhys Ifans gets right in your face as Jed, with Daniel Craig and the Samantha Morton faultless as the lovers. Creepy and compelling. John Campbell

year. With the arrival of Revenge of the Sith, Lucas places the missing piece of the six-film arc that tells of the rise, fall, and redemption of Darth Vader. It’s a rousing and tragic sendoff to a beloved franchise, and the best installment in the Star Wars series since 1980’s The Empire Strikes Back. If this is to be the last big-screen installment of the space opera, Revenge of the Sith ushers things out on a high note. Those who have disparaged the previous two prequels (1999’s The Phantom Menace and 2002’s Attack of the Clones) will find few things to complain about this time around. Lucas has delivered the film that Star Wars fans have been yearning for.

The midweek winter solstice, the year’s shortest day and longest night, is traditionally a period of assessment – of taking stock, cleaning out, breaking old habits and making new resolutions. If Byron’s going under the Great Wave next year (see last week’s letters) which according to some reports isn’t entirely unlikely, better enjoy the rest of this one‌

ARIES: Supportive acceptance is essential to Aries self esteem because it feeds your creative vision – without it you burn out, run down or collapse. If Mars is stirring up angry outbursts and dummy spits in your domestic sector, remember it doesn’t pay to drive away those you rely on. TAURUS: If this week activates feelings of passionate possessiveness or resentment, step outside yourself and look at the situation from another viewpoint. Note your emotions, look for the lesson, then let it go and move on. Forgive or forget – preferably both.

CANCER: Sun, Mercury, Venus and Saturn in Cancer score you this week’s princess-and-the-pea award. Not to worry – your manipulative abilities are still going strong, and your emotional defenses are so potent most people will instantly sense what’s expected and what’s forbidden. LEO: Your ability to pull a crowd’s awesome this week – but so is the danger of getting so absorbed in your presentation you misjudge your audience or miss subtler feedback signals. Keep your awareness antennae tuned and your sensitivity keen.

VIRGO: If you’re hurt by GEMINI: This is a rare week criticism or take offense this for realising dreams both week, squashing emotions financial and romantic. You’re down won’t be helpful. Do tuned in, aware of right timing your best to express your and opportunities. You know feelings in a clear, moderate what works and what doesn’t. manner without blame or Tread gently though, because righteousness. And don’t think right now personal connections it’s just you. Everyone’s going are delicate and easily damaged. through it, so reach out.

LIBRA: This week anything is possible but nothing’s certain. Logic sinks in an unpredictable ocean of emotion and people aren’t reasonable, so don’t expect them to act sensibly. Appealing to their feelings is the only kind of communication likely to work right now. SCORPIO: After a month of Gemini brain strain, this week plummets from airy mental realms to the watery energy of Cancerworld, where you’re much more at home. And home is where this week’s happiest moments happen because it’s snuggling, comfort treats and hibernation time. SAGITTARIUS: Sagittarians perform well under stress, but over time this takes its toll – so give yourself permission to go around obstacles rather than meeting them head on. Inability to recognise limitations – your own or someone else’s – will activate this week’s low stress threshold.

CAPRICORN: Capricorns usually know exactly what they want in finance, career and relationships and rarely bother to change or modify their expectations. But compromise isn’t a dirty word – this week it could be a lifesaver. Or at least your passport to some duty free fun. AQUARIUS: A casual remark could make a misleading impression on someone important to you this week, so a bit of judicious self-censoring wouldn’t go astray. Best edit those entertaining observations because right now people are thin skinned, sensitive and seriously easy to offend. PISCES: Pisces Albert Einstein probably had the best approach to this week’s energy: One cannot but be in awe when one contemplates the marvellous structure of reality. It is enough to merely comprehend a little of this mystery each day. Never lose a holy curiosity...

‘I say,’ he said to the crew at the breakfast table, most of whom were engrossed in a newspaper and a strong cup of coffee or nursing a hangover with the assistance of Mrs Constance Newtgarden’s Patented Neurone Stretcher, ‘the winter solstice is upon us.’ ‘Quite so,’ said Tosser Digby, throwing the club panther another kipper. ‘We must celebrate it in an appropriate manner.’

‘Nevertheless,’ I continued, ‘we could at least make a paper replica of Marduk’s dragon and set ďŹ re to it.’ There was general approbation for this idea. By ‘we’ I meant some chaps who specialised in the paper dragon-making ouevre and would deliver it to the door, or haunted grove wherever appropriate, posthaste. When the night of the solstice arrived, we proceeded in limousine convoy to Digby’s adobe castle at Main Arm Upper Upper Outer In Extremis, set upon a rock ledge looking down upon Hell’s Hole. The paper dragon proved to be a magniďŹ cent reproduction of Marduk’s familiar, and amed into the night sky like the ďŹ ery tears of Lucifer impotent in the face of an uncaring god. Chef provided the perfect accompaniment to our celebration – Gecko Hollandaise and Warrigal Greens. We toasted Marduk’s uncertain prophylactic against Chaos with an excellent drop of Monsanto Mutant Pleasures Twisted Gene Chardonnay, followed by absinthe slammers.

‘Not like the old days,’ said Dillpuddle, ‘when a chap could set ďŹ re to another chap surplus to requirements inside a largish wicker man while virgins danced about sky-clad humming ditties to the wild god of the forest, what?’

Against all objections Abbotsleigh insisted upon removing his apparel and dancing naked around the log ďŹ re we had burning in the castle bailey. Digby’s pet goanna, Sybil, objected to this behaviour and ran up the poor chap, decorating his ample paunch in a vivid crimson cross-hatching. A quick application of nitrous oxide and ketamine rendered Abbotsleigh insensitive to the pain, and we noted solemnly how chaos so easily intrudes upon the best-planned ritual.

‘The solstices are uneven,’ I said. ‘The Earth is actually nearer the sun in January than it is in June, but what’s three million miles among friends? ‘While the covens and the Druids like to think their vivid rituals are the bee’s knees in solstice celebration, one can go back to the ancient Mesopotamians with their twelve day festival of renewal, designed to help the god Marduk tame the monsters of chaos for one more year.’ ‘Bit of an ask, taming chaos?’ noted Digby. ‘Might as well try to catch the wind, as Mr Leitch remarked.’

An orchid of sublime avour

Mullumbimby

Vi c t o r i a C o s f o rd Vanilla is an orchid. It is the only edible orchid there is, and it grows at an altitude of 300 – 600 metres. Between the time that it grows and the time that it is ready to be used is a period requiring a great amount of patience and delicacy. Vanilla needs plenty of heat and humidity but also shade to ensure that the sun never comes in contact with the plant. In the tropical forests of Mexico, women and children with their small hands are used to assist with pollination, then later to pick the fruit gently in order to avoid its opening lengthwise and spilling out its numerous tiny seeds. These are the gelatinous seeds which give vanilla its characteristic fragrance. The vanilla is then left to dry out over a long slow period during which the pods become perfumed and pliable. The upshot of all this is that either as pods, beans or liquid extract, pure vanilla is expensive. (The synthetic imitation vanilla available is such a pallid version of the real thing that it is hardly worth using.) The pods resemble sticks of licorice and should be as malleable; avoid ones that are dried out to the point of stiffness. They can be stored in caster sugar (imbuing thereby the sugar with that heavenly fragrance) or sliced and infused in liquids. Many sweet vanilla recipes recommend scraping out and incorporating the tiny black seeds, the resultant ecking of the icecream, custard or brulee denoting the visual proof that authentic vanilla has been used. Stored in sugar, the scraped pods can be recycled several times over.

baby potatoes alongside a raw fennel salad. The adorning sauce consists of more fennel thinly sliced and sweated slowly in butter to which is then added whole green olives and half a vanilla pod together with its seeds. Fish stock is added, brought to a boil and then, when reduced to half, enriched with cream. Passed through a sieve, the sauce is then whisked with extra cold butter and sliced olives then poured around the ďŹ sh and vegetables; the avours – aniseed and vanilla – are fantastic. As for Kipferln, these are biscuits very easy to whip up. Below is one simple recipe, to bake for someone you love. Which could even be yourself. Cream together 250 grams of butter with half a cup of caster sugar. Blend in 2 cups of freshly ground walnuts and 2 1/2 cups plain our. Pinch small pieces of dough into crescent shapes, place on a greased baking tray and bake for 20 minutes at 160Ëšc. Cool, then toss in icing sugar which has been stored with a vanilla bean.

WRITERS FESTIV Time to abandon old approach to the land echo

June 21

Review of Bob Beale’s and Mike Archer’s Going Native by Cr Peter Westheimer What I saw from the plane over central New South Wales last week was hundreds of kilometres of manicured rectangular paddocks and the importance of books such as Going Native by Mike Archer and Bob Beale became exquisitely clear. I saw no wildlife corridors, no riparian vegetation, just degraded soils, parched rivers, very few trees, and knew that on the ground were invading

weeds and pests and vanishing species and possibly contaminated soil. The book calls for a dynamic new vision for Australia and for a revolution in our relationship with this amazing continent. They call for us to look at the vast commercial potential of native trees and grains and the massive health and environmental beneďŹ ts to be gained from harvesting kangaroos and the need to start living in this country like we mean to stay. In England subsidies are now paid to farmers engaging in conservation on their land and these measures are now

being considered in Queensland, NSW and by the federal government, and should I feel be in fact available to not just farmers but all landholders. Byron Shire can be proud of its new Biodiversity Strategy with its plan to create wildlife corridors and revegetate our rivers and creeks. Going Native gives us further ideas for continuing in this way. The book starts with some very pertinent and interesting historical stuff. We Australians, need as the Aboriginal leader Patrick Dodson uniquely phrases it, ‘to think ourselves into the country’. Michael Archer is the Dean of the Faculty of Science at the University of NSW and was previously the Director of the Australian Museum in Sydney. Bob Beale is a well known feature journalist and writer. Their big picture is about tackling land degradation, solving water resource problems and sustaining biodiversity and is also about revaluing nature and ďŹ nding better ways to factor that value into the way we are living. It’s a fairly easy read, peppered with contemporary ideas and interesting facts, eg recent research has shown periodic plagues of crowns of thorns starďŹ sh which perhaps may be the equivalent of a bushďŹ re on land, clearing areas of reef for colonising species and thereby increasing the overall diversity of the reef community. Cautioned by new understanding about the past, although still controversial, intervention has now largely been abandoned as a management strategy. Perhaps one of the most important statements in the book is a quote from singer

more than wordsalone...

songwriter Neil Murray, who states that ‘a lot of white people tell me how they have gone to Central Australia and they love it. They think it’s so charged with spirituality. ‘But the trick is, that you have to be able to feel that anywhere, even in the middle of Melbourne or Sydney. The whole country is like that. More than 500 million Aboriginal souls cumulatively lived in or visited every available part of the country from desert to alps over time.’ Other statistics in the book, fascinating to a statistic freak like me, include that Australians probably have removed more than 20 billion native trees, about one third of the original standing stock, largely to make way for grazing and cropping. That’s an average of about 100 million trees a year; and that 85 per cent of all erosion over the past two centuries occurred within one human generation of arrival‌ They emphasise recognising ecological realities and working with them, rather than against them, and the need for Australia to totally reinvent its 30 billion dollars a year agricultural sector which is the main driver of land clearing, with rivers no longer being seen as mere drains and irrigation channels shunting water around the landscape. Consideration is given to salinity credits, biodiversity credits, water quality credits, revegetating catchments rather than spending money on water puriďŹ cation plants. Native ďŹ sh, they say, are one of the keys to helping us restore our rivers systems to health or maybe the foundation stone for a new hinterland aquaculture industry. Agriculture creates a net val-

Author Bob Beale ue of about four billion dollars a year while the community’s bill for repairing the damage it causes is probably about the same amount or more. Even the National Farmers Federation concedes that the conservative cost of land degradation is now at least 1.5 billion dollars a year while others put the ďŹ gure as high as ďŹ ve billion, leaving aside the intangible cost of disrupted eco-systems, losses to other industries and loss of biodiversity. They believe that commercial mixed species, that is, non monoculture native hardwood forestry, will no doubt become one the mainstays of the Australian economy including degraded and salinity areas and for the protection of water catchments. We will then move towards a tree dominated eco-system that is structured and functions like a natural forest, producing a wide range of commodities such as fruit, nuts, herbs, cut owers and

foliage, pharmaceuticals and timber with economic or cultural value. Recent success stories are presented including Melaleuca alternifolia [tea trees] and Lemon Myrtle. The authors encourage Australians to abandon their traditional dogs and cats as pets and to go native and to support bushland preservation levies as in Brisbane, voluntary conservation agreements, urban equivalents of landcare ie streetcare groups aimed at conservation strategies minimising the extinction of endangered plants in urban areas and linking urban and rural corridors. In closing, the authors pay homage to farmers, park rangers, scientists, public servants, bush regenerators, gardeners, and an extraordinary number of Australians dreaming up wonderful ideas or just doing the hard grind of repairing the land. They are the new breed of Australian pioneers.

News Extra

Chamber applauds police PACT The Byron Bay Chamber of Commerce has applauded an approach from the Tweed/ Byron Police Command to make police more accountable to the local community. Chamber president Greg Owens said the Chamber welcomed the Police Accountability Community Team (PACT) initiative. ‘We’re enthusiastic about being involved in this move which provides a forum for leaders of the community to discuss problems with the police and question the local police commander about policing strategies. It’s all about communication.’ Police local area commander Superintendent Tim Tarlinton invited representatives from the Chamber and

Byron Shire Council mayor Jan Barham to an inaugural forum on Tuesday June 14. He stressed that PACT has the potential to direct increased police resources to Byron in response to the community’s needs. Superintendent Tarlinton said the biggest problem at present is that many people don’t report crimes or concerns. ‘People should contact us,’ he said. ‘As police we tend to look at statistical information collected as a result of reported incidence and direct our police resources accordingly. That would be superb if people reported criminal activities or incidence where they are fearful. Realistically, most people don’t.’

He cited an example of vandalism in one area in which 20 letterboxes were destroyed in one night. ‘Out of 20 incidents, one person might report and the rest go out and ďŹ x their letterbox. We can do very little to watch one letterbox, but if our statistics show the street is a target for vandalism then we can direct more resources to watching the area.’ The local area commander encouraged individuals to report disturbances and concerns. He said that through PACT the police will also now look to community leaders to act in part as ‘eyes and ears’ and supply the information which individual citizens might fail to bring to police attention.

Byron Bay Chamber of Commerce Vice President Peter Wotton attended the inaugural PACT forum where he raised a couple of speciďŹ c concerns of the business community. These were the perception among some businesses that homeless people on the streets of Byron deter shoppers, and the need for the police to ďŹ nd ways to control the use of alcohol and drugs in local parks. These issues were also raised at the most recent Chamber of Commerce monthly meeting (Monday June 13) at which local police inspector Owen King addressed law and order questions of concern to Chamber members.

Sat landed an excellent win against the Hornets, Ethan B getting the 3

points, Jack DC 2 and Dylan E 1. Sun we traveled to Tugun for the DB Cup finals against Cudgen and came away with a convincing win of 32-8. The game full of great defence, brilliant ball skills and barrelling hits and copy book tackling. Congratulations to Jake F O for MoM award. A good effort from Betta Electrical U9s resulted in our first victory of the season against Tugun. Powerful running by M Mason, M Dwyer and Lachlan. Great tackling from Tim and K Hughes. Keep up the good work! McDonalds Meats U12s drew 12-12 with Ospreys. A very exciting game and one which we could have easily won. A lapse in concentration after the half time siren gave Sth Tweed a soft try. Outstanding defense and some great teamwork paved the way for a spirited comeback. Two tries to Matt M. 110% award to Steve H. Sun the U12s won the final of the DB Cup 12-4 against Sth Tweed. A great reward for the boys for putting in a lot of hard work. Congratulations to all the boys and special mention to M Mulcahy for his Player of the Final award. Go the Giants! New Brighton Store U16s played Cudgen at Tugun, put in a great effort, lost 44 nil. We went to Tugun with only twelve players due to major injury toll, but were boosted by the inclusion of two under 15 players. Through weight of possession and our teams exhaustion Cudgen went to the half time break with a 30 nil lead. We came out in the second half and put in an outstanding effort only conceded 14 points. We thank Dale H and Dallas W from the U15 team and Dallas was named player’s player. RUGBY UNION Brunswick Valley Juniors U10s hit a brick wall at Wollongbar going down 62-7. Big efforts by Todd A, Audrey C and James R were counteracted by opposition. Mac D, Alex McD and Andrew P were best players for BV. U12s went down 17-0. Valentino A stood out in his first game. All improved in 2nd half. The U15s scoreline 42-0 belied their effort against Lennox. The front row Wally S, Clinton O and Cameron C pulverised their opposition. Danny M deservedly won MoM with Jarrod M and Jack M-D also outstanding in the forwards. Lennon M-O was the pick of the backs before being injured. Sam O and Max G were real ‘go forward’ men in the backs with Nathan N and Nath T defending stoicly. U17’s ‘yo yo’ season continued with a 60-0 loss but hopefully that will turn around this Fri. A big thank you for all the efforts of Mathew P and Damien B, just hang in there fellas. Mullumbimby-Ocean Shores Took the long trek to Grafton Sat to go down 2618. Moonshiners take on Casino away this Sat. Shane I deserved his MoM effort and other best and fairest points went to Cory S and Graham B. Cory and Mark H scored the tries. With Brendan R and Damien B this team is proving solid if not spectacular. The universe should start righting itself this Sat with the Moonshiners moving onto the charge to the semi finals. 3rd Grd went a bit pear shaped with a 60-0 loss. No game this week but we need two sides at home against Lismore in a fortnight. SOCCER Brunswick Heads Juniors True value OS U6 Buffalos played well. Good individual effort Jarrah B and Jackson E.

Local boys tough it out in WQS series

Surfing in what are generally regarded as the warmest ocean surfing waters in the world, Byron Bay surfer Jarrad Sullivan (pictured above) made a promising start to the O’Neill Deep Blue Open in the Maldives earlier this month. Trailing for most of his first heat, Sullivan posted a strong seven point final ride to win the round. Unfortunately, he bowed out before the quarter finals, along with our other local hopefuls. The event was won by South African Daniel Redman who defeated Australia’s Luke Hitchings in the final.

Rams winning week It was a big week for the Rams in both premiers and reserves with games midweek as well as over the weekend. On Wednesday night the Rams travelled to Bangalow to face their old foes. Both teams were expecting tough games, especially the reserves who had been beaten by Bangalow in the first round. However, the game proved to be a walkover for Byron Bay who appeared to be scoring at will. The first half saw the Rams score five goals with Stuart Dickie scoring a hat trick. The second half continued in much the same way, with the Rams playing simple but effective soccer, scoring another two goals and totally outplaying their opposition. It was a different story in premier division with the Rams getting home by the narrowest of margins. The game was a free flowing affair with the Rams playing possession soccer and Bangalow forced to play on counter attack. The break in deadlock came when Bruce Morhaus broke free and rounded the Bangalow goalkeeper only to be brought down just outside the penalty area. A Ban-

galow hand ball from the free kick resulted in a penalty which Tim Bird put away giving the Rams a 1-0 win. On Saturday Byron played host to Thistles with reserve grade continuing their good form coming away with a 40 win. Stuart Dickie again led the scoring with two goals. Premiers made a couple of positional changes which seemed to stem the free flowing play the Rams have been producing of late. Despite the Rams having greater possession, they failed to convert their chances and were punished when Thistles were awarded a penalty which they converted on the rebound. Coming out for the second half down 1-0, the Rams continued to attack but didn’t look like breaking through. With 20 minutes to go, Bruce Morhaus equalised with a fine header from a corner, followed by a cleverly constructed goal scored by Patrick L’Orange giving them a 2-1 win which sees them narrowing the gap on the leaders. There will be no game next week due to the representative fixture against Queensland Roar.

Swimming rules, OK? A recent article in The Sydney Morning Herald stated that the latest Australian Bureau of Statistics’ survey of children’s activities found the most popular organised sport for children was swimming with a participation rate of 17%, followed by soccer 13% and netball 9%. The organised sports that attracted most boys were soccer 22%, swimming 16%,

and Aussie Rules 14%. Where is rugby league you say? Well it rates only a paltry 2.9 % with 77,000 children playing. Compare this to the 356,000 playing soccer, the 205,000 playing basketball, the 193,000 playing Aussie Rules or even the 129,000 participating in martial arts and I think the picture is pretty clear.

Sports Roundup with Alex McAuley Giants victorious despite send-offs The Giants have continued with their winning form after a thrilling victory over Lower Clarence at home last weekend. Despite having two players sent off in the ďŹ rst twenty minutes and being down 10-0 in the early stages of the game, Mullum showed plenty of spirit to come back and win the game 36-10. ‘It was a great team effort,’ said club president Tony Parker. ‘The referee told the boys at the start of the game that he would be watching the head high tackles, but I think he’s set a tricky precedent with the two send offs.’

Prop Adam McKenzie was the ďŹ rst to go after only seven minutes, with second rower Brett Archibald next after twenty. Losing two key forwards put a lot of pressure on the team but they worked hard to earn the win. Going into the break with the score locked at 10 all they came out in the second half and piled on the tries. ‘The wingers Troy Smith and Joel Christie were outstanding, as were Mitchell Morris and Adrian and Bernard Browning, and Tim Abbott at full back,’ said Parker. The victory was all

the sweeter as the club was celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the leagues club and grounds and had some distinguished past players visiting, including Elwin Walters who went on to play for Souths and Australia. Next week the Giants will look to carry on with their winning ways when they travel to Grafton to take on the Ghosts. Final score Mullumbimby 36 d Clarence 10; reserves Mullumbimby won on forfeit; U18 Lower Clarence 10 d Mullumbimby 8.

Bangalow lead the village competition There was a jubilant atmosphere on the Bangalow team bus on the way home from Iluka this weekend, with much singing and poetry from players, girlfriends and children after their tough fought 10-6 win. Bangalow leads the village competition with 37 points putting them seven points ahead of their nearest rivals after nine wins and one loss but only averaging 12 points

per game. Good defence from both sides ensured a close game, yet Bangalow with the lion’s share of possession were still unable to convert their advantage into tries. Strong winger Richard Allen and centre Matt Bleakley made some good runs but were unable to score. Jock Craigie and Darren Gill were excellent in the lineouts and loose play, with

Gromfest set to hit Lennox’s shores

Nick Hornery safe at fullback and Kegs Jennings outstanding round the scrum. Neil Moran scored a good try with other points from a conversion and penalty from the ever reliable boot of Iain Bryce. With only ďŹ ve more games before the ďŹ nals, top of the table Bangalow will face Kyogle next week at home in what promises to be a tough encounter.

Devils clean up against Grafton Ghosts

Lennox surfer James Wood is one of many success stories to come out of the Rusty Gromfest over the past ten years.

With limited spots in all age groups, this year has seen the Rusty Gromfest inundated with masses of entries from all over the world. Aussie groms will pit their skills against a huge international contingent, with surfers flying in from Peru, America, Samoa, South Africa and New Zealand. These kids will be out to impress the national media, international surf industry scouts and thousands of spectators in the tenth annual Rusty Gromfest to be held at Lennox Head in July this year. The gromfest has showcased some the best local talent over its ten year history, including big names like Chelsea Georgeson, Stephanie Gilmore, Byron Bay’s Ellis Ericsson and Kurt King, as well as Lennox boys James Wood and Adam Melling. This year is shaping up to be better than ever with entries already closed as the response has been so huge. The inaugural 1996 gromfest was the brainchild of Max Perrot and David Sandercock and is now estab-

lished as Australia’s biggest youth surfing event. Max Perrot has been a surfing event director for 22 years and is also co-founder of the All Girls Surfriders Club and the All Girls Surf Showdown. He felt compelled to start the gromfest as he didn’t think the eight to sixteen year age groups were catered for and that these boys and girls were the future of the sport. He has been proven right as the success of the competition is beyond doubt and gromfest winners continue to go on to succeed on the world circuit. Stephanie Gilmore is one of those success stories who got her taste for competing at the gromfest. ‘I think gromfest was the start to my competing thirst as I’m pretty sure it is with many other grommets that have gone in it,’ said Gilmore. ‘It’s such a great event, I get stoked just thinking about it.’ You can catch all the action from these school holidays from Friday July 1 to July 4 at Lennox Head, with July 5 as a backup day in case of poor surf conditions.

Surfing FNC SurďŹ ng FNC’s judge at the state titles Rob Van Iersel, has reported that after a good showing the ďŹ rst round Stephan Walsh, Chippa Wilson, Jens Spencer, Mitch Hayes, Caynne Campbell, Steve Powell, Mitch Laugher and Dane Neilson all got through to the second round before being eliminated at Maroubra. The third and last round of the Maddog/Hotel Great Northern regional titles for juniors, masters and women is in the ďŹ nal stages of preparation. A few of the top surfers are not competing in this round, giving some other competitors a very good chance to make the team.

Today’s issue has a cosmic and numerical anomaly. It is volume 20 number 05 and is therefore the only issue of The Echo ever which can have the same issue number as the year in which it appears. The fact that it happens on the Winter Solstice, and that the date, the issue number and the year all add up to the number 7 means that it is obvious the pixies are up to something really weird and if you read page 7 backwards we are sure you will ďŹ nd the word ‘devil’ somewhere. Q Q Q Q In a momentary lapse of reason (some say it is permanent), our editor inserted the word ‘England’ into last week’s article about theatre enthusiast Peg Gloor. Peg is not English but ‘proudly Australian, at least until Ruddock and co came along’. Our apologies to Peg and her friends who were alarmed by her previously unknown provenance. Q Q Q Q Speaking of the theatre, Simone Roach, our reviewer this week of Pressure Point (see page 3 of Seven), is keen to see the good women responsible for the play appreciated through the ageold medium of flowers, a theatrical tradition. ‘Bring owers as a gesture to these courageous, intelligent women whose show would be sensational on tour right throughout the country,’ says Simone. Q Q Q Q A reader has produced old website documents from the RTA which show the highway upgrade had no Yelgun truck stop in the original planning. Could it be the poor folk at Sleepy Hollow kicked up such a stink that the plan is to close down their truck stop when theYelgun stop is installed. And could it be that this has

something to do with Sleepy Hollow being in the Tweed, where there is a Labor MP, whereas Yelgun has a National Party MP? Q Q Q Q Entrants in the Pet and Owner Lookalike competition at the Mullumbimby Adventist school on Sunday were not restricted to the usual dogs and cats. Backlash was intrigued by the entries from the owners of a mouse and a parrot. Mice seemed to dominate the smallest pet competition and our tip for the most unusual pet is the Mexican Walking Fish that put its best foot forward and ran over the line. Q Q Q Q Does any Echo reader have information on the DX Gold scheme? asks Ronald Wolff of Uki. Is it the real deal or a con? Send us an email at editor@echo.net.au and we’ll pass it on. Q Q Q Q Mount Warning Community Preschool seems to have been inspired by Durrumbul Preschool’s Big Day Out and is staging its own Little Day Out on Sunday June 26. The Welcome Gate will be open from 9am to 3pm. ‘The ďŹ rst game of the day is “Find
