Council reviews new DA for Becton’s resort Byron Shire Council is currently reviewing a new development application (DA) from Becton Corporation for its tourist resort at Sunrise Beach. The DA, for 117 centrally managed tourist resort units, was lodged with the State Planning Department in Sydney and only forwarded on to Council late last week. Mayor Jan Barham said the application includes a mix of one, two and three bedroom units and a motel. A total of 290 bedrooms including 24 ‘hotel suites’ are included in the plans. Council’s set maximum density for the site, according to the Development Control Plan (DCP), is 250 bedrooms. ‘ They have left out four major lots on the site, including the one

with the existing cabins on it, and a significant section of two other lots which need clarification over what the future intention is on those lots,’ said Cr Barham. ‘Whatever happens on this site we need to see a total concept plan. For me this is where it breaks the first threshold rule. Within the previous master plan process you could see the full site impact. ‘Becton have met some of the key DCP objectives, like the environmental protection zones and the focus on lower outer area density with a more concentrated density in the centre. ‘It appears to be a genuine tourism facility rather than something that could be residential and there is no denying the fact that they are proposing considerable environ-

mental work, but the site does demand it. ‘They’ve proposed no building in the coastal section, but we would need clarity on whether there was a commitment not to build there,’ said Cr Barham. Council’s planning director Ray Darney said that a brief assessment of the DA would be completed within the next three weeks for NSW planning minister Frank Sartor’s office. ‘We have told them we need to see a whole of site plan before making a final comment.There are areas there that will quite obviously be intended for future development and that might be outside the provision of the DCP. We would like to get a clear concept of the totality of the development,’ Mr Darney said.

Young woman dies after airlift

Disha Tatyana Schluter, a well known, much loved and admired local musician, celebrant and counsellor died in tragic circumstances last month. Disha was eight weeks pregnant and experiencing stomach pain which she and her husband feared was an ectopic pregnancy for which Disha was a high risk. They tried to organise an ultrasound to confirm or rule out their suspicions, but when they were unable to do so, presented at their local hospital for treatment. Disha was seen by a doctor and explained her concern that she may have had an ectopic pregnancy. Friends, family and admirers of Lorna Kelly gathered in the park at The Pass on Wednesday to farewell a great lady.

Byron Shire is one of the top film making areas in Australia according to Byron Bay based filmmaker David Warth, so it seemed an obvious move that it should have its own film festival. A team of three local filmmakers and producers have got together with the Byron Community and Cultural Centre’s Greg Aitken to bring the Byron Bay Film Festival to the Centre next January. David Warth, fellow local filmmaker Johnny Abegg, former ABC television producer Vera Wasowski and Greg Aitken have taken on the weighty role of organising the inaugural event. ‘We are hoping long term that it

will be an exciting national and international film festival with lots of top talent entries. While we want it to have an international flavour, the main thrust is to develop local talent here,’ explained Greg Aitken. The organisers are looking for entries from both established and first time filmmakers with categories including short films, documentaries and features and have already gained the support of Screenworks and the Byron Bay Film Club to help them with getting the message out to filmmakers. ‘Entries will go through a culling continued on page 2

A 20 year old Suffolk Park man is facing dangerous driving charges after being involved in an accident earlier this year in which 30 year old South Golden Beach woman Kirsty Anne Doyle was killed, leaving behind her four year old son Lochlann. The accident occurred back in March when Ms Doyle’s Toyota Camry and a Toyota Soarer had a head on collision on Mullumbimby Road near Kings Creek in which Ms Doyle died. The driver of the Soarer, Joshua Robert Pinkerton, now faces charges of dangerous driving causing death, driving at a dangerous speed and negligent driving causing death. His case was mentioned in the Lismore Local Court and adjourned to November 22. The stretch of road where the accident occurred was also the site of another fatal accident just a month later when a car hit a tree. The driver of the car, 19 year old Reece Jones from Ocean Shores died at the scene and his passenger 20 year old Liam Wright from Mullumbimby died in hospital a few days later.

Sources close to the family told The Echo that a report has been lodged with the Coroner who has taken the matter into consideration and is yet to determine the cause of death. Q Obituary, page 17.

Prepare to pay to park at Tallow Beach, Captain Cook Lookout and Palm Valley car parks with the introduction of parking fees by the Cape Byron Trust later this month. The revenue raised from the fees will contribute towards the cost of providing surf lifesaving patrols and to fund a range of projects to improve visitor safety and enjoyment. The fee will be $3 for four hours, the payment of which will be made through a ticketing machine located in the car parks. While residents will not be exempt from the fee, they, and regular users of the reserve, can purchase an annual permit for the entire Cape Byron State Conservation Area at a cost of $35 which represents a considerable saving. All income raised by the Trust in this manner will be used to fund the daily management of the reserve and assist with the provision of improved facilities. Included in the list of projects is the replacement of

The festival will be an opportunity to showcase the wealth of talent in Byron Shire. The entries don’t have to be new ďŹ lms, but I have already had people say they are starting to make entries especially for the festival,’ said David Warth.

Greg and David say they were ‘absolutely oored’ to ďŹ nd out that the name ‘Byron Bay Film Festival’ was not already registered and say they are delighted to have secured it for a community event. Entry forms are available on the Community Centre website at www.heartofbyron.org.au and follow the links, or by calling into the centre on weekdays between 10am and 4pm. The cutoff date for film entries is December 1. For further information contact Johnny Abegg or Greg Aitken on 6685 6275.

Local News Preferring human rights activity to the beach‌ Fifteen high school students from Sydney have been spending their vacation raising awareness about children who have been orphaned during the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Last Friday the students arrived in Byron Bay to tell the personal stories of those whose family members have suffered torture in Chinese labour camps because of their connection with the meditation cult. Annie Zhuo (above left) and Manying Yan (right) told how her aunt was tortured and imprisoned for three years. The car tour is part of an international effort headed by the Global Mission to Rescue Persecuted Falun Gong Practitioners (GMR). GMR is raising funds to provide a basic education for orphaned Falun Gong children and those who have been expelled from or denied education in state-controlled public schools on the basis of belief.

Council policy on holiday letting under scrutiny Last Wednesday’s forum on holiday letting seems to have produced mixed messages over Council’s stand on the issue. Recently Council agreed to temporarily halt moves to close down unlawful holiday lets to allow industry and community groups to meet to discuss all possible solutions. Property owners group, the Holiday Letting Organisation (HLO), has challenged Council’s legal advice on the illegality of holiday lets in residential areas and The Echo understands HLO has indicated it may take legal action if necessary. Asked if Council’s legal position on holiday letting had changed as a result of the forum, Planning Director Ray Darney said, ‘I haven’t got any understanding that the legal position is any different.’ Mr Darney said that Council will be conducting research into possible solutions prior to the next meeting in early December.

‘We were initially looking at whether it is possible that some of those areas should be some sort of holiday let zone, but we have to do our research before early December. Maybe there will be some areas that could possibly be holiday let and there will be no-go areas. In the end it will be up to Council to decide,’ said Mr Darney. President of the HLO, John Gudgeon, said he was ‘pleasantly surprised’ at how well Wednesday’s forum went. ‘I think we certainly didn’t get to a point where we found a long term solution. Council need to decide what they are going to do,’ he said, but added that a code of practice was discussed at length to address noise concerns. Mr Gudgeon said the HLO will be ‘targeting the customers the town wants’ and would be setting a cap of no more than eight people in one dwelling, ‘except in certain circumstances’. Asked about ‘no-go zones’

FURNITURE AND HOMEWARES FOR RELAXED LIVINGx

where holiday letting would be prohibited, Mr Gudgeon agreed these were discussed at the forum. ‘But there is a long way to go before that would be a practical outcome,’ he said. ‘At the moment I can’t support anything that is going to stop HLO members doing what they are doing.’ Byron Shire Councillor John Lazarus is concerned Council’s current stance on holiday letting may be crumbling, describing the forum result as ‘selling out the community’. ‘There is a lot of talk about addressing noise, rubbish and parking issues but I kept trying to bring it back to the question do we want to create a new class of commercial activity in our residential areas?’ ‘HLO says there are 600 holiday lets. If they were legally approved like Bed and Breakfasts they would be paying about $30,000 each to fund the infrastructure needed to service the devel-

opment. That would mean $18 million due from HLO owners. B and Bs have six people in them yet many holiday lets have more people than six. Council doesn’t have the money to provide the infrastructure. What infrastructure we do have is being subsidised by the community and the legal operators,’ Cr Lazarus said. While Mayor Jan Barham said the forum was quite a big step in terms of everyone working together she reafďŹ rmed her position on holiday letting free zones. ‘I’d still like to see the residential areas protected from the impacts of tourism and strongly believe in the importance of having purely residential zones,’ she said. ‘There was considerable discussion about no-go zones at the meeting and a lot of that came from the fact that there was positive discussion about how to protect residential amenity when you’ve got tourism as your major industry.’

When three suicide bombers struck Bali last Saturday week several Byron Shire residents, holidaying on the idyllic Indonesian island, were in the vicinty of the Kuta Square bomb when it exploded. Ishka Massey was on the last day of a three week visit to Bali, most of which had been spent far away from the bomb locations in a writing workshop in Ubud. A last minute shopping trip took her to the coast, and but for a whim of her driver she would have been in Kuta Square when the bombs went off. ‘I asked my driver, Nyoman, to take me to Kuta Square for shopping to buy some spectacle frames. He talked me out of it and instead took me to Sanur. After ďŹ nding nothing suitable there I again requested he take me to Kuta Square,’ explains Ishka. Despite being advised by Nyoman that Kuta Square was too expensive a shopping area and she should shop elsewhere, Ishka says she was determined to shop there before catching her plane. ‘I was talking to the driver about the 2002 bombings and told him how I had changed my will shortly before leaving Australia. As we were talking I noticed we had missed the entrance to Kuta Square and then a little while later I heard the bangs. I thought at the time they were ďŹ reworks.’ After dropping her at a beachfront restaurant, Ishka’s driver went off to investigate, returning later to tell her that the bangs were not ďŹ reworks but bombs. ‘“I’ve been thanking the gods, we weren’t meant to go there,â€? he told me,’ said Ishka

Owner of Citrus Deli and Byron Bay resident, Lisa Kerrigan, was staying at Seminyak on a family holiday at the time of the recent bomb blasts in Bali. On the night of the detonations she was in Jimbaran Bay having dinner with her husband and children at one of the beachfront restaurants along the bay. Lisa said she was only 600 metres from the location of the third bomb. They heard the faint first blasts from Kuta Square as they were having drinks before dinner and then the last bomb, closest to their restaurant, went off but the family didn’t realise at the time the seriousness of events. They mistakenly believed that the sounds were caused by fireworks and it wasn’t until they returned to their hotel that they discovered the tragic circumstances of the evening.

who says she has not let the incident sour her love for the Indonesian island. ‘I would be on a plane tomorrow to go back because I have the utmost faith now that my destiny is not in my control. The Balinese are the most beautiful people on the planet and we need not let this destroy who they are.’ Suffolk Park resident Bruce Ericsson and daughter Aurora were on one of their regular surďŹ ng holidays in Bali when the October 1 bombings occured. Staying in the Inna hotel, just around the corner from the Raja Restaurant in Kuta Square, they were leaving the hotel to go out for dinner at the time the Raja bomb went off. ‘We saw a big cloud of

white smoke and then all was calm and quiet for about one minute. No cars and no voices then people starting moving into the area to assist. We ran in the opposite direction because I was concerned that there might be a second explosion,’ explained Bruce. ‘After an hour and a half we headed back across town by which time the police had taped off the area.’ Bruce quickly emailed his wife Paula and son Ellis, safe at home in Suffolk Park, to let them know he and Aurora were still alive and then made plans to leave Bali earlier than planned. ‘There was a rush to get out of Bali by tourists, all ights going out were full and I was concerned that we

wouldn’t get back the way the aircraft were ďŹ lling up,’ Bruce explains. ‘The next day I talked to my driver, who I know quite well, and he told me he hadn’t heard from a friend who worked at the Raja and was still missing. The Balinese were totally devastated. They are really aware that it is not going to be good for them,’ Bruce said. Asked if he would go back, Bruce said he has friends on the island so would keep returning despite the danger. ‘I don’t think the average family will go back. People had mentally closed on the 2003 event. Bali was packed when I arrived, but I don’t think the average person will be returning.’

Residents cause a stink with environment authority The number of complaints about foul odour from the Sunnybrand Chickens plant received by the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC) has increased from only eight last year to 146 this year, according to Jon Rushforth from Byron Shire Council’s planning department. Mr Rushforth was addressing a Freedom From Fowl Odour Org (FFFOO) community meeting last Thursday. Len Bates, a founding member of FFFOO, thinks it is likely that this increase is as a result of FFFOO informing people that the DEC needs to receive formal complaints about the smell before it can act. According to Mr Rushforth, the DEC has identiďŹ ed

several major sources of odour from the plan, including vented air, ponds at the back of the plant for partly treated waste water and the chicken sheds themselves. In September this year Sunnybrand installed carbon air ďŹ lters on the air vents and residents have reported a significant improvement in odour since then as the burning feather smell has been greatly reduced. However, the issue of water treatment and disposal remains a major concern. At the ďŹ rst FFFOO meeting, the DEC gave Sunnybrand a deadline of December 31 to complete its waste water treatment upgrade. Sunnybrand lodged a Section 68 (building application) with Council in July which is currently with consultants

GHD Engineering for an independent assessment. FFFOO member Len Bates is concerned that the issue of odour has been overlooked in the Section 68. ‘While Section 68 [of the BA] contains plenty of detail about dealing with fats and waste products, there is no mention of odour or expected odour outcomes,’ said Mr Bates. He was also concerned about Sunnybrand’s decision to dispose of its waste water onsite rather than connect to the West Byron Sewage Treatment plant. ‘Even after the proposed 60% recycling of waste water, the onsite disposal will see more than half a million litres of waste water dispersed onto approximately ďŹ ve to eight hectares of land at the rear of

the property which oods, has a high water table with the likelihood of ground water contamination and which is adjacent to a protected wetland area that drains into the Upper Belongil Creek,’ said Mr Bates. ‘Sunnybrand has yet to prove that onsite disposal is viable and sustainable,’ he said. Ray Darney, Director of Planning with Byron Shire Council, pointed out that ‘while all parties are working hard towards a solution, it will be extremely difďŹ cult to completely remove all odours, as while there are animal sheds there is always going to be some odour.’ The Echo contacted Sunnybrand who declined to comment at this time.

Local News Uncle Alan buys Uncle Tom’s

Spot skin cancer at Byron seminars With 201 people from Northern Rivers diagnosed with melanoma every year, the Cancer Council NSW and over 15 clubs in Northern Rivers are holding free public seminars to teach local residents how to spot skin cancer early. ‘A melanoma can grow to a life-threatening stage in as little as six weeks so it’s really important people know they should check their skin regularly for unusual spots,’ said Diana Fisher, Regional Programs Coordinator for the Cancer Council. ‘At the seminar we will be demonstrating how to check your skin, explaining what to look for and how often to look,’ she said. ‘Skin cancer is a real issue for all Australians.

Former Box King Alan Yarrington (pictured above right) has just bought Uncle Tom’s Pies from Ian Smart (at back) and has big plans to improve the gas station. Also present at the handover were manager Brian Capral (left) and manager Michelle Hicks (eating a pie). At this stage, the priorities are to clean the place up and make it more user-friendly as well as to introduce new varieties of pies, including a gluten free one. ‘I hope to have other local products on sale here too,’ said Alan. ‘I’m keen to support local suppliers.’ Work is already underway to repair the driveway and will be followed by planting the gardens to make a pleasant eating area. ‘We will continue to offer the cheapest petrol in the area,’ said Alan. ‘We will also introduce a “smart card� to allow for further discounts. I hope to introduce driveway service at least a few days a week to help some of the elderly people who aren’t able to fill up for themselves.’ As an added attraction, there will be pie samples handed out as you fill up your tank.

I want to urge locals, especially those over 55, to come to the seminars and learn how to be proactive about skin cancer.’ The ďŹ rst seminar will be held at the Byron Bay Services Club on Wednesday October 12 at 10am, followed by the Bangalow Bowls and Sports Club on Friday October 21 at 11am and the Byron Bay Golf Club on Tuesday October 25 at 2.30pm. The Cancer Council’s seminars are part of a state-wide campaign with Clubs NSW. Diana Fisher said, ‘Last year we conducted an online survey and found that generally people over 55 have adopted sun protection behaviours in their day-to-day life,

but they need a little more encouragement when it comes to following up with regular skin checks.‘ The online survey of more than 500 Australians over the age of 55 found that 70% wear broad-brimmed hats when outdoors and more than 75% consciously try to stay in the shade where possible. However, the survey also found that only 50% of respondents over 55 examine their skin for spots regularly, and the majority of them aren’t doing it correctly. If you can’t attend the public seminar but want to ďŹ nd out more call the Cancer Helpline on 13 11 20 for free guidelines which provide step-by-step instructions on how to check your skin.

Middle of Nowhere ďŹ lms in Byron Several local ďŹ lm industry workers have been hired for an international feature ďŹ lm which has been ďŹ lming in Byron Shire this week. Middle of Nowhere is the ďŹ rst feature ďŹ lm for director Ringan Ledwidge, an awardwinning commercials and music video director from the UK. The original screenplay is by James Watkins and Andrew Upton. Described as ‘a contemporary and atmospheric psychological thriller’, it centres on a young British couple travelling through the Australian outback who become involved with a mysterious and charismatic American whose motive for befriending them becomes suspect and sinister. Northern Rivers Screenworks say they are delighted to welcome the cast and crew of the low-budget feature, a Universal Pictures and Working Title Films presentation in association with the Film Finance Corporation Australia and Studio Canal. ‘It is great to have an international production com-

pany with the reputation of Working Title (Four Weddings and a Funeral, Fargo, Elizabeth) shooting in the region,’ said Screenworks Chair Cathy Henkel. ‘Screenworks hosted the company late last year and it is great to see that our initial legwork has resulted in the production shooting in the region. We are working hard to develop the

screen industries as a sustainable and green industry,’ said Cathy. The ďŹ lm has been a boon for local ďŹ lm industry personnel who have been used extensively. All of the extras used in the 12 locations filmed around Byron are local residents, as are the

Your Work Choice job: take it or leave it Vol 20 #21

Sewer capacity soon to grow We are about to enter a new era in Byron Shire. The post development moratorium phase will soon be upon us. Work on the West Byron Sewage Treatment Plant upgrade was completed recently after many years of planning, design and construction. South Byron’s aged sewage treatment plant will close and Tallow Creek, where most of the efuent was disposed, will be a lot cleaner. Who knows, local people might even be able to reclaim the creek as a swimming spot and be able to safely catch a ďŹ sh some day soon. A more signiďŹ cant change, however, will be the lifting of the moratorium in Byron Bay, which has acted as a brake on development for the past decade. Part of the capacity at the newly expanded sewage treatment plant will be taken up by the transfer of sewage from the plant at South Byron, but Council has yet to publicly announce how much ‘spare’ capacity there will be for new development. Some sources say it could represent a 30% increase on the current population and tourist load of Byron Bay and Suffolk Park. One developer has calculated this could represent an additional 2,700 dwellings. Council staff say it is too early to commit to an actual date when new development applications will be accepted, but it is likely to be in the ďŹ rst half of next year. From the ood of development applications which will undoubtedly swamp Council’s planning staff, don’t expect to see many for large housing estates. There are few greenďŹ eld sites left in Byron Bay to build on, mainly due to the high environmental value of much of the undeveloped land and the fact that a lot of it oods. What Byron Bay will probably experience is an increase in the amount of tourist accommodation. A substantial proportion of the development potential is in the centre of town, through the redevelopment of single storey buildings to take advantage of the three storey height limit. Recent trends have shown how top shop units in the town centre are often holiday let. If this trend continues we are likely to see a growing pool of tourist accommodation. Added to this is the 290 bedrooms currently being sought by Becton through the redevelopment of their tourism zoned land. Belongil Fields is one of the few greenďŹ eld sites which has been identiďŹ ed for new residential development. Existing residential areas will also provide new permanent housing, through the building of granny ats in the gardens of existing dwellings and the conversion of single houses to dual occupancies and in some areas units. Retaining the existing residential areas for permanent dwellings is vital if we are to keep some sense of equilibrium between tourist numbers and residents. Maintaining that balance will help us hang on to a harmonious and committed community.

ust in case there was any doubt about who was to get the benefits of John Howard’s preposterously named Work Choices program, he gave the bosses a gala preview – the workers and their representatives were pointedly not invited. And, what do you know, the bosses liked it. ‘Nine out of ten,’ gushed Peter Hendry, the feudally-minded baron of the Associated Chambers of Commerce – although he did go on to lament the fact that the Howard plan still allowed workers the opportunity for such indulgences as eating and sleeping. Still, as Howard himself keeps saying, the job is never finished; Work Choices is merely another stage on the long road ahead – or perhaps back, given that the logical end of the process would be a return to slavery. Unfortunately the approval of Hendry and his colleagues did not extend to an offer to pick up the tab for the massive sales campaign now under way; that privilege is left to the rest of us, a ďŹ ne example of our taxes at work. The ads to date are devoted to showing bosses and their workers as a happy, smiling community of interest, marching forward in unalloyed harmony; and certainly there are enterprises that work like that. Unfortunately there are also quite a few which are not at all like that, which is why (in the past) the workers have formed unions and operated through collective bargaining. In Howard’s fantasy world this is no longer necessary; if by some mischance conict arises between employer and employee, it will be resolved in a frank and friendly discussion between equals. The

workers have nothing to fear. When asked why any worker in his right mind would believe this drivel, Howard said, in effect: trust me. To repeated requests for a guarantee that no worker would be worse off under the new system, he replied: ‘My guarantee is my record’ – not once, but several times, and noted that real wages had increased by 14.9 percent under his regime. This is true, but it would have been more honest to add that every single application for a wage rise had been vig-

shortages the starkness of the new system may take a while to become obvious: at ďŹ rst only the weak and inarticulate will feel the sting. But as time goes on, and particularly if the economic boom goes wobbly, the full horror will be revealed. The Australian, which like the rest of the Murdoch empire is an enthusiastic supporter of so-called IR reform, has no doubts about what’s going on: ‘Howard launches assault on unions,’ screamed Monday’s poster. For unions, read their members: workers.

When asked why any worker in his right mind would believe this drivel, Howard said, in effect: trust me. by Mungo MacCallum orously fought by his government: the increases were awarded by the Industrial Relations Commission in spite of Howard’s ferocious opposition. But they won’t be any more. Work Choices relegates the IRC to the status of a bit player, responsible only for the minor detail of awards. The heavy work has been transferred to the quaintly named Fair Pay Commission, government appointees with a brief to follow government policy. Now return to Howard’s record and be afraid, be very afraid. The government’s spiel is full of reassuring lines about consultation and negotiation and better times for all, but stripped of all the wafe it really only offers workers one choice, the oldest one of all: take it or leave it. At a time of high employment and skill

It will be fascinating indeed to watch the response of the worker’s political representatives – if indeed the Labor Party still considers itself to be that. Howard has spent nine years claiming the role for himself. We are about to see how effective his takeover bid has been.

I

f Mark Latham thinks that the Labor Party is beyond salvation, he should take a look at the Department of Immigration and Ethnic Affairs. The report by former Victorian Chief Commissioner Neil Comrie, released (and quickly buried) last week, reveals that this important arm of the federal administration has degenerated into something halfway between a criminal conspiracy and a complete shemozzle. After eight years under the

ethical and emotional cadaver Philip Ruddock and another under the blustering incompetent Amanda Vanstone, the prevailing culture has become one of catch, imprison and deport – the body count is all that matters. For preference the victims should be ‘unlawful non-citizens’ (Ruddock’s term for the tired, the poor, the huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore, the homeless, tempest-tossed) but if a few others get caught in the battle to protect our shores, well, you can’t have a war without collateral damage, can you? Members of the department who still retain some misgivings are simply too scared to speak; they know the heavies are only following government policy and are constantly congratulated and promoted by their political masters for doing so. They have a right to this view: Vanstone insists that her ministerial role is not to do anything about, or even to acknowledge, the underlying catastrophe (Comrie’s word) but simply to ďŹ x individual problems when they are drawn to her reluctant attention by the media. This time around a couple of junior ofďŹ cers are being set up for scapegoating, and there will be a $230 million training program – to be conducted by the very same people who have overseen the corruption and perversion of the system for nine years, and who have presided over and covered up an unknown number of individual disasters and persecutions in the process. Then we can all get back to normal, until next time. This, under John Howard, is what is known as ministerial responsibility.

The bet’s on OK, Peter Olsen, the bet’s on! I’ll wager Gazza $US50 billion that the seas won’t be any higher (or lower) in the next 50 years due to human factors. This sum is approximately how much has been spent on climate research in the last 20 years. A Sunday afternoon session at the pub with people who understand climate and how the methodology of science works could’ve come to a much quicker and more cost effective outcome. And when I collect the ďŹ lthy moolah (based on the simple fact that the human output of C02 is a paltry .11%, and simply not enough to make any artiďŹ cial difference to planetary warming or cooling), rather than waste it penning error-laden, guiltridden, pseudo-scientific tomes, predicting mythical monsters and doom for us all, I’ll make sure every last cent pays for the educational, medicinal and sanitary needs of desperately poor women and children. In fact, the same poor souls who currently die in dreadful circumstances while we have this pointless, vapid debate. R L Mort BSc (Lon) MA (UNSW)

Rezoning postscript In view of continuing confusion about the railway land in Station Street, Mullumbimby and its prospects may I offer some factors which came to light in a study of the shopping centre

What’s gone wrong with the system? ■It seems that the way Australian politics works is that we have one day of democracy (voting), then three years of elected dictatorship. Vote, then shut up, seems to be the attitude. It’s about time the Australian voting public woke up to the fact that there is a worldwide movement towards Direct Democracy also known as Binding Citizen Initiated Referendum (BCIR). This can be used at federal, state and local government levels. The advantage of BCIR for the public is that it does not matter which party is in government, the people have the power of veto on any unpopular legislation if they deem it necessary. Citizens’ Initiated Referenda is not a political party, is not involved with any political party and espouses no political cause other than the rights of all of us to have a

more direct say in what is happening in government. In local government, the Burnie Council (Tasmania) and the North Sydney Council (NSW) have both introduced CIR on an informal, non-binding basis with excellent results. In 1993 the residents of Gympie (Queensland) opposed and blocked council on the issue of council amalgamation using CIR. We need to have the right to correct our elected representatives when they stray from what the majority of voters want on important matters. All the major Australian political parties have endorsed CIR at some time or other, but when in power they have not legislated it. So far countries that now allow BCIR launched through an initiative process ‘from voter-up’ include Switzerland (still working well

proposal. In order for a commercial zoning to be legally approved on that land there are some requirements which would need to be in place beforehand. They include: a roundabout at the eastern end of Burringbar Street, a minimum of 20 metres of road reserve for the length of Tincogan Street, sufďŹ cient culverts under the railway line to ensure adequate drainage and the rezoning to 3a of properties between the current commercial area and the railway land. The cost of these measures would be in the millions of dollars and would not alone ensure approval. For those who have wondered why eastern Tincogan Street is so narrow, it may be because the original Mul-

lumbimby village plan with wide road reserves, drawn up in 1885, extended only from Burringbar to Tyagarah Streets and from Brunswick to the western side of Stuart Street. The creation of Station, Train and the eastern end of Tincogan Streets were afterthoughts added as the railway developed. The ďŹ rst pub in Mullum and a School of Arts were once in the old part of Tincogan Street. Rhonda Ellis

how damaging and undemocratic the existing voting system actually is, more than 90% would be opposed to it. Therefore, one, could you provide evidence for your view, Mr Howard? Two, could pollsters test the public’s attitude on voluntary voting? And three, could pollsters test the public’s understanding of the existing electoral system and alternatives? Klaas Woldring

Another spray Once again Byron Shire Council has shown no respect for residents whose health is adversely affected when it sprays glyphosate in the Shire. Spraying began a couple of weeks ago and health complaints reported to Residents Organised Against Roundup include fatigue, swollen glands, headaches, itchy and swollen eyes, aching limbs,

receipts, etc, etc – unless there are major faults in our political system. He refers admiringly to our so-called ‘two party’ system and in the next breath implies there is nothing between a one party dictatorship and a ‘multitude of parties sliding in and out of unstable coalitions‌’! The fact is that our ‘two parties’ act as a cartel to keep all others ineffective and help themselves – at a rate per vote mutually agreed – to taxpayer funds which they spend generously with their media friends to keep us all – well, at least, the oating voters – bemused to their joint advantage. Please, Mungo, explain why there is no need for any electoral reform or else explain how we might get it started. Colin Cook

Bangalow sore throats, hay fever, depression and digestive upsets. Some children have had dysentery, upset stomachs and coughs. It is easy to confuse glyphosate symptoms with ’u, a stomach bug or hay fever as most people are unaware of the connection and do not check to see if any spraying has taken place when they become ill. A childcare worker has contacted ROAR with a list of negative health effects she has noted occur when spraying has taken place.

whom are chemically sensitive, would be exposed to offgassing herbicide while shopping for their organic produce. But even after receiving the petition the market grounds were sprayed and some chemically sensitive residents have told me they will not be back at the market until the off-gassing subsides. The beachfront and Railway Park have been sprayed, as have all parks and sports grounds. Council says that a report on trials on non-chemical products it has been experimenting with will be presented at the November meeting, but as it was slashing and whipper snipping instead of spraying in the town centre while the trial was taking place, ROAR is not hopeful that an alternative product has been found. If this is not the case and Byron is about to follow other councils successfully using non-chemical herbicides, why go ahead and use poisons a month before presenting a report? This does not make sense unless it had stockpiles it needed to use before considering our health. Ashiya Austin

ROAR, Byron Bay

Turkey Town Just as Council is determined to rid the area of the title ‘Party Town’, I believe they should be worried by the title ‘Turkey Town’. And urgently relocate many of the huge numbers of bush turkeys to somewhere else – anywhere else, as long as it’s a long way from my place. They are currently in plague proportions and once they decide on a nesting site, as they have on our property, forget the concept of a beautiful garden and prepare for the devastation of the 20 metre diameter arid plain that will surround the nesting mound. As wildlife carers, we also feel for the other ground-feeding birds and animals for what must be a declining food source after huge numbers of turkeys have plundered the area. It’s a daily battle to dissuade these verminous creatures from their determined

"

defiling of our lovely coastal rainforest and the sad part is that it can go on until December. If Council is serious about disruption to our peaceful existence then for heavens sake get your priorities in order and rid us of these loathsome creatures. John Downs

Not a real issue This week the paper was full of tales of shock, outrage and fear, intimidation and violation. An entire editorial of sarcastic wit. These people were angry. And the vile subject of this outrage? Terrorism, global warming, losing the Ashes? No, sniffer dogs. Are these people kidding? Have we all really become so precious and self-obsessed. Violation of personal space? Wait till you have your prostate checked – then I’m with you, brother. It sounds like they all need a good swig of rescue remedy (don’t start me), and a psychotherapeutic trauma workshop (you’ll find them in the back pages) to commence the healing process. When they’ve finished they may want to try getting a life. If making mountains out of mole hills was an Olympic sport, Rusty Harris and this pack of whingers would have more gold then Thorpie. There are some really important issues out there in the real world – this is not one of them.

With great trepidation I must respectfully disagree with one (and only one) point in the Editorial: not even ‘random canine examination’ could ‘render safe’ the public gallery of the Council chambers! ‘Gormless and aggressive’ police? How could anyone even begin to entertain such an idea? ‘We must not weaken our resolve…’ Heaven forbid! We are all definitely with you, or not…

■ It was surprising and pleasing to read the Editorial in the October 4 edition. It is blatantly obvious from reading the reports that the police were indeed ‘courageous’. How could ‘some people [accuse] the police… of reckless disregard for… basic human decency’. Don’t we all KNOW this would never happen? Incidentally, thanks for educating me: ‘The demon weed leads inevitably to madness and death…’ Fancy not knowing that! ‘Public opinion must rally round the police…’ Please advise me of the rally details. Will we be able to get enough ralliers to complete a round?

Supreme humbug Complaining about the bombs used against British soldiers in Iraq, Tony Blair said, ‘There is no justification for Iran or any other country interfering in Iraq.’ This, from PM Blair, a key architect of the premier interference in Iraq! Perhaps he should have followed his own advice in March 2003. No wonder ‘they don’t like us’ – our hypocrisy is evident and appalling. Judy Bamberger

Questions, questions Has anyone noticed a correlation between Oliver Dunne’s defence of holiday letting and Bob Hawke’s demented call for Australia

to become a ‘repository’ for the world’s nuclear waste? In their time, both these leaders were relatively progressive thinkers in their respective spheres of influence. So this is what happens to original thinkers once they are accepted into the mainstream establishment? No won der nothing ever changes. In a similar vein, has The Echo become a tad parochial egocentric and self-congratulatory in devoting pages to the death of Carol Page yet barely a mention to the demise of Dan Doeppel, founder of the Arts Factory and its subsequent offshoot the Blues Festival, a man who quite literally has been a legend in his own lifetime, even since the days of his rock festivals at Ourimbah over 30 years ago. In its heyday, the Arts Factory hosted world-class international bands at a time when artists of this calibre, just didn’t come to Australia and many of them enthused that it was the best venue they’d played anywhere in the world – no small compliment. As the founder of one of Byron’s most defining cultural icons he – more than any other luminary – must be credited with putting Byron on the international map (regardless of whether

or not this was a good or bad thing) and a long line of real estate agents, holiday letters and tourist operators have him to thank for their burgeoning profits while he in his turn received little else but grief, duplicity and betrayal from the Council and ‘community’ to which he contributed so much. The price of being a pioneer, perhaps? Keith Gray

Hell on earth? Do people realise that with the Howard government’s destruction of the award wages system unions will no longer negotiate wages for all workers? Individual workers will be asked to sign their own individual contract. Imagine an individual worker trying to get himself better wages, say, from BHP Biliton? Do people realise that under this new legislation holiday, sick leave and long service leave can all be easily destroyed? Do people also realise that under the proposed anti-terrorism laws, anyone can be arrested and imprisoned for up to ten days without charge? Where are we going? Barb Colley

Heaven on earth? I am very grateful to all the people who attended Eagle Farm’s first open day on Sunday October 2. We were truly overwhelmed with the support shown by such a response. ‘The past flies into the future’ was indeed a success for us, to be able to welcome so many people interested in our vision for Eagle Farm. It was a great success for our visiting vintage plane pilots, to be met with such enthusiasm by our community, but also, thanks to the Lions Club and our own bucket collection, the event raised over $700 for the Flying Doctor Service. We were very happy to open our farm for public view, as we want to share the beauty of this place and its many potential benefits with the Byron Shire community. We hope that, with a firsthand view, people will recognise that the ten years of development work is taking shape to ensure we realise our longheld vision. Eagle Farm is much more than a tourist resort. It is true that we enjoy probably the best view and location in the Byron Shire, but that is just the raw canvas where our dreams begin. My vision is for Eagle Farm to bring nature and

Letters technology together to develop and promote better ways to live on the earth. I see an Eco Centre hosting demonstrations of earth saving technologies and educating visitors in ways that will enrich their lives. With rising fuel prices, we believe the need for such a centre is very urgent. I see Eagle Farm as a community resource that can help raise the profile of our Shire in a very appropriate way. It will be a contributor to our local economy by creating jobs to make visitors more aware of both the natural environment and the resources we use (and waste) in our normal lives. We believe that Eagle Farm is the ideal place to establish an Eco Centre here in Byron Shire and we are seeking support from both government and ecologically sensitive companies, but we are especially pleased with the

level of community support shown. Sunday’s open day certainly proved that Eagle Farm is well equipped to host visitors and is an ideal community events site. We were delighted that our guests enjoyed Eagle Farm and we were touched by the respect shown and the amazing lack of rubbish left to clean up. Thank you, Byron Shire, for sharing Eagle Farm with us and giving us such a memorable day. Dieter Horstmann

Drive slow, read fast Please let me respond to John Campbell (October 4) and his whine about the people in the streets and the lights on Montecolum. With regard to the lights, John, I would rather sit for a minute looking down on Myocum than rolling down

into Myocum after colliding with some hurrywart like yourself. With regard to the people crossing the streets, slow down son, smell the flowers, inhale, the world will go on even if you’re a few minutes late. Relax. Or you could move to somewhere in far west Queensland where the roads are long and straight and hardly any people, that would make me feel better. W B Crompton

Bagging the site The new permanent outdoor festival site that Chugg, Noble and company have in their sights will constitute the largest DA (by a country mile) to ever approach Byron Shire. For this reason alone it deserves a reasoned and maybe even a humble approach from the requesters.

The questions are: does Byron Shire want a permanent outdoor large festival site and where to put it? The answer to the first part depends on who you check in with but on where to put it, it seems clear, that the people of Brunswick Heads, Mullumbimby and all the rural land in between do not want a large festival site in the middle of the Shire. However much Chugg and company talk of camping and facilities onsite etc, it is clear that if Tyagarah or a similar central site is chosen, then Brunswick, Mullumbimby and surrounding country will be inundated with people around festival times. The promoters need to go back to the more suitable site close to Byron Bay. Personally I would suggest along Ewingsdale Road. What was wrong with the 100 acres Council spent our

money on out that way? Or maybe Chugg and company can buy Sunnybrand, a nice plot out of town and set up the festival site there. Tyagarah is still living with the backwash of dodgy blokes that took over the beach last time Byron shipped its ‘good’ idea out of town. Chris Moyes

Mercy, Bob Re Bob Ellis (September 27): For a truly intelligent and human being, Bob Ellis, like so many other commentators on the vicissitudes and tragedies of life for those in the public view, surprises us by his capacity for sublimation, even denial of his own compassion. What other character could write with such bitter passion on the subject of hypocrisy and human failure in leadership? Bob, John Brogden always impressed as a fresh-faced

boy. Indeed those of us who were either fortunate or unfortunate enough (I’m not sure which) to have him as our local member in Pittwater, and to have met and encountered him in his role as a politician, did so by crossing the threshold of his electorate office where his poster proclaimed his ‘fresh approach’ and proclaimed his fresh face! The Boy from Balmain – a Labor turncoat espousing left-wing views (pro-choice, supervised injecting rooms, etc) was always going to be in trouble within the Liberal party, and it was just a matter of time before he’d discover how personally devastating it is to be ‘stabbed in the back’ by those you least expect to do so. Was it Churchill who said something like: Take a look at those guys over there – they are your opponents; but your continued overleaf

Evil overlords from the planet RTA Claire Lovejoy Lopes dos Santos gets acclimatised to Byron Shire once again

O

K, for the record so everyone can stop asking me, no I am not Killjoy, all right? I mean think about it, when have I ever needed a pseudonym when I wanted to offend people? Huh, huh? Answer me, bitch! I was never actually the kind of person who wanted to go and live in another country. I always liked my comfort zone, it’s just the way events fell into place that I ended up living in Brazil for three years without ever leaving there. After three years as you can imagine, you get used to a place. Guy walking down the street with an Uzi? So what? I don’t bat an eyelid at women of all shapes and sizes strutting the beaches in itsy bitsy teeny weeny bikinis. Hell, I do it, rolls of fat and boobs falling out all over the shop. But none of my friends were particularly impressed with the presents I bought them of Brazilian bikinis. Oh, they loved the Havaianas, because they’re $25 here and very trendy. But when I said we were all going to put on our bikinis and play fresca ball on Main Beach they shrieked like girls. Nei laughs at Australian bikinis. So do I too now for that matter. The bottoms look like men’s underwear to us.

that he sees as similar, the geography and weather for example (not climate, it’s too damn cold for the both of us here. We’re thinking of moving to northern Queensland, oh, crap, what would the guys be like up there?). He definitely thinks it’s beautiful here. He uses his favourite adjective to everyone who asks him what he thinks of it here, ‘gorgeous’. One of the ďŹ rst things he noticed was the birds. On his ďŹ rst day he heard a Whip Bird. He is so dying to actually see one. And of course he is dying to see a wallaby or a koala, and of course the one day I went somewhere lthough in general it is without him I saw a wallaby. really good to be back, It’s really nice how people a couple of things have welcomed him with stood out as aspects of the open arms here. People who kultcha I am not glad to see I don’t even know have come again. First of all, Australia is up to him on the street to so friggin’ expensive!

bit of a boogie (note, not an internationally touring artist) and had to spend $60 on the cover charge and about two drinks. Not only that, the place was crawling with slimy, horrible men. Any time I tried to walk anywhere within the venue, hands were just coming out and grabbing me or other women. Men were leering, it was gross. I used to go out in Byron all the time, I don’t remember it being like that. Then again I probably quite liked it three years ago. Men in Brazil are pretty full on about verbally appreciating women in public places but I actually found it more confronting here the other night. So, even if we could afford to go out regularly in Byron, it won’t be happening. Try to imagine what it’s like for Nei coming here to the Byron Shire when he’s never travelled out of Brazil before.There are some things

ne thing Nei’s noticed that has really opened my eyes is the amount of huge fuck-off trucks on the roads. There are more trucks than there are cars. I feel like I left peaceful little Byron Shire and have come back to an alien invasion of these giants of steel that threaten our very existence on a continual basis if you are unlucky enough to have to travel around within the Shire. Every time we get on the highway when we go from Mullum to Ocean Shores Nei gets nervous. The road curves ever so slightly so it looks like they are coming straight at us. Who says we aren’t religious in this day and age? We are living in blind faith that these mon-

sters don’t just wipe us off the face of the earth. It’s like we are all subject to the evil overlords from the planet RTA. Evil overlords who worship the gods petrol and speed and have a sworn oath to destroy that aberration, nature. Every time we walk into Mullum from New City Road and pass the train station, Nei asks, ‘You absolutely sure trains don’t pass here anymore?’ Trains have become like dinosaurs. It’s hard to believe they ever existed. One thing that embarrassed me somewhat was when I was raving about the US invading Iraq because of oil, blah, blah, yaah, and when we got here Nei looked around him and said, ‘You were going on about Americans driving big cars. You people drive big cars! Look, big car, big car, another big car, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera,’ and he was right. And I was ashamed. My only response was, ‘Yeah but you should see the cars they drive in America. They’re really, really big.’ I would say the most confronting thing about coming back here after three years, and telling Nei how this is the land of opportunity and what a great life we will have, is that we just can’t ďŹ nd any bloody jobs! It’s been six weeks now, we have $5 left in the bank. They pay me for these articles in cake! I’ve put on ďŹ ve kilos and my doctor tells me my cholesterol is really bad.

enemies, they are those standing behind you? Julius Caesar didn’t see it coming either! In my several brief dealings with John Brogden over my years as State chair of my professional society he never struck me as dim, just young. Probably would have beneďŹ ted from reading the complete works of Machiavelli. Sincerely. Politics may be a noble calling, but you need to have an unshakable faith in your own judgment to survive it. A skin as thick as‌ Most of us would call it arrogance. And even that can bring you down. Suicide? Why would he try that, you ask? Well we had all better start understanding that too, since those who suffer from severe depression are so likely to try it (1 in 6 according to the last reliable ďŹ gures I read), and its rate is increasing alarmingly in our population. People can be so good at masking it! Imagine that you cannot think straight, can’t get proper sleep if at all, are tormented by your own distorted thoughts – guilt, remorse, hopelessness – and can see no possibility that it will end. Imagine that. Imagine that in your own mind your staying alive will only produce misery in future for those you love most, that you hate yourself, and that you are tormented by indecisiveness and powerlessness. Now does your suggestion that John should have been sensible enough to apologise, weep in public, and say he’ll be a better person in future look like a realistic possibility to you?

North coast fallout claim A documentary to be screened in Byron Bay this Thursday contains claims that the Lismore district is ‘an atomic hotspot’. Northern rivers ďŹ lmmakers Kathy Aigner and Greg Young have won international success overseas with their government funded documentary Australian Atomic Confessions which reveals how British nuclear tests in South Australia in the 1950s created atomic hotspots as radiation fallout drifted north. ‘One revelation is that fallout from atomic detonations in the 1950s and 60s made Northern New South Wales including the Lismore district, an atomic hotspot,’ say the producers. ‘We are asking all political parties to provide the latest ďŹ gures on fallout in this district and assure the public there are no long-term radiation effects.’

Australian Atomic Confessions will be shown on Thursday October 13 at 7pm at Sacred Body, next to bus stop at 84 Jonson Street. ‘It reveals information that has long been suppressed by authorities and voices concerns of returned army, navy and air force personnel and traditional men and women elders who survived. Indigenous sources claim the ďŹ gure of one thousand Aboriginal deaths from fallout since the start of testing in the early 1950s,’ say the producers.. ‘Official Government medical reports on the potential health problems of 15,000 veterans were secretly removed before the Royal Commission in 1985 and the veterans are asking for a health survey to be done. They are calling on the Minister for Veterans Affairs, Mrs Kelly to complete a health survey and to release the missing medical reports.

fter last month’s little spray on the tech-no no community, I have decided to add the prefix ‘DJ’ to my name because it seems anyone can call themselves that without any education, study or HECS debt. As I can’t possibly write a conclusive ‘I hate you’ article’ in one go, you’ll forgive me if I do it in instalments. Anyway, in order to include every oxygen-thieving moronic boob, these words of disgust come complete with a pretty picture and catch phrases, and yes, it’s in point form for the ex-Sydney seachangers who don’t understand anything that isn’t on a PowerPoint slide. I digress; back to the subject at hand: the Media and You.

Cheering on the collapse of globalism Rusty Miller

‘At the heart of the problem lies the globalist idea of viewing society through an economic prism. ‘In practical terms this has meant demoting the values – ethical and moral – of community in favour of the certainty that humans are primarily driven by selfinterest. ‘They will therefore not mind being confused with machines, provided their income is raised. It would be difficult to find a clearer example of the self-delusion of globalisation theories.’ Ralston Saul foresees the end of blind acceptance in the so often religiously professed absolute, inevitability of globalisation. He surmises

that we are currently in a confusing vacuum where various nation states are taking different trails in economic theory. He does not say that it has been all one big mistake, but points to winners and losers when all the boats on the rising tide were dragged in a multitude of directions. The best overall way to get through it is via what he calls positive nationalism‌ understanding what is now in play and what our choices are‌ cherry picking the best of all economic considerations and having respect for the ‘public good.’ His depth of view into historical economic ways and outcomes is most convincing as he takes you around our

world looking at various live and dead experiments in economic fashion. For instance, New Zealand tried it on for 15 years, then in a ‘pragmatic’ reversal Helen Clark changed its course. This book can give you great faith and ammunition that you are not off the wall, unrealistic, behind the times, off base, checked into current reality, or mad because the government says by law that ‘There Is No Alternative’ (TINA). It comes down to the basics that people want to relate locally: ‘Many people may want to have an international side to their lives, but they want to live in their communities.’

Ralston Saul shows you history alive and contemporary, relates you directly to the economic mechanics which have been and are in the process of producing our events and times. As our government persists in shoving globalism down our throats while concurrently spending over a billion dollars of our economy in our ‘national interest’ occupying Iraq we see that this brand of globalism offers us more fear than democratic empowerment and selfdetermination.

Tim Flannery routs the climate change deniers The distinguished author will speak in Byron Bay on Tuesday. Lesley Patterson has been reading his latest book

T

im Flannery has been ringing alarm bells on the environment for years, but it seems it has taken his latest book on climate change for people to sit up and listen. The Weather Makers provides a stream of evidence to prove climate change is a reality. The first half of Flannery’s book is written for the sceptics. Those who either still don’t think climate change is the result of human induced pollution, or believe science will save us from the looming catastrophe. Having already accepted that climate change is a reality, I thought it would be too depressing to read more evidence of the approaching calamity. I wanted to know what the solutions are and what action, if any, has been taken to date by government. Flannery does provide hope for the future and outlines what individuals can do in the absence of any real action by our elected leaders. Buoyed by the fact that the situation is redeemable if we take action now, I braved the rest of The Weather Makers.

F

lannery’s case for climate change contains some fascinating facts and makes riveting reading. Earth’s thermostat is a complex and delicate mechanism, explains Flannery, at the heart of which lies carbon dioxide (CO2) which plays a critical role in maintaining a balance in the environment. ‘On dead planets such as Venus and Mars, CO2 makes up most of the atmosphere, and it would do so here if living things and Earth’s processes did not keep it within bounds. Our planet’s rocks and waters are packed with carbon itching to get airborne and oxidised. As it is, CO2 makes up around three parts per 10,000 in

Earth’s atmosphere. It’s a modest amount, yet it has a disproportionate influence on the planet’s temperature,’ writes Flannery. ‘Because we create CO2 every time we drive a car, cook a meal or turn on a light, and because the gas lasts around a century in the atmosphere, the proportion of CO2 in the air we breathe is rapidly increasing.’ Should CO2 ever reach even 1% of the Earth’s atmosphere it would probably bring the surface temperature to boiling point says Flannery. Prior to the start of the Industrial Revolution in 1800 the atmosphere contained about 280 parts per million of CO2, today that has increased to 380 parts per million. The threshold of dangerous change will be reached when CO2 levels hit double that of the 1800 level, which is fast approaching if we continue spewing out carbon at the current rate. Coal powered electricity plants are the most dangerous CO2 generators according to the book, chucking out three and a half tonnes of CO2 for every tonne of black coal consumed. The idea that planting forests might soak up the excess CO2 is not a viable solution according to Flannery, who points to a recent study which demonstrated there really is only one major carbon sink on the planet and that is the oceans. ‘They have absorbed 48% of all carbon emitted by humans between 1800 and 1994, while over those same two centuries life on land has actually contributed carbon to the atmosphere.’ The bad news is that before the end of this century the oceans are predicted to be taking in 10% less CO2 than they do today. The effect of increased CO2 levels on climate have

‘If humans pursue a business-asusual course for the first half of this century, I believe the collapse of civilisation due to climate change becomes inevitable.’ Tim Flannery, scientist, explorer, conservationist and author of The Weather Makers been evident for some decades, but it was not until the disastrous summer of 199798 that global warming was really put on the map. ‘The year the world caught fire’ is how the World Wild Fund for Nature has described that year, when drought had a stranglehold on a large part of the planet and the global temperature ‘spiked’ by 0.3 degrees C. Eastern Australia has been hit with what Flannery calls a climate change double whammy since that year. Along the east coast, Australia has experienced a historical drought from 1998 and has since had seven years of below average rainfall and temperatures around 1.7 degrees warmer than in previous droughts, he explains. We’ve all heard about the critical water shortage in Western Australia. Between 1997 and 2004 Perth’s rainfall declined to such a degree that the city was receiving only a third of the flow into its water supply that it received three decades earlier, a trend which had been evident since 1975. Worldwide the weather has become increasingly extreme. Flannery tells how the world has seen the most powerful El Niño ever (1997-8), the most devastating hurricane

in 200 years (Mitch, 1998), the hottest European summer on record (2003), the first South Atlantic hurricane (2002) and one of the worst storm seasons ever experienced in Florida (2004). ‘In the 1960s around seven million people were affected by flooding each year around the world, today that figure stands at 150 million.’

I

ronically, the two nations who have done the most to block action on climate change, the US and Australia, stand to lose the most from climate change due to

severe weather events and declining rainfall. ‘It is in the US, and specifically with the second Bush administration and its industry supporters that the opposition to reducing emissions of greenhouse gases is most virulent. ‘It is almost impossible to overestimate the role these industries [The American energy sector] have played over the past two decades in preventing the world from taking serious action to combat climate change.’ The US is not alone and Flannery highlights Australia’s position as the world’s largest exporter of coal and how our powerful energy sector have resisted change. ‘[Mining company] Rio Tinto’s chief technologist, Dr Robin Batterham was appointed Australia’s chief scientist by the Howard government and in this capacity advised on issues such as climate change.’ He also describes how in 1996 Howard appointed a former executive with one of Australia’s largest coal producers as his Minister for Minerals and Energy in 1996. Senator Warwick Parer later resigned after it was revealed that he owned $2 million in shares in three Queensland coal mines while Minister. He was subsequently appointed by the Howard government to head a review of the energy sector. The main reason given by the US and Australia for not ratifying the world’s plan for reducing CO2 emissions, the Kyoto Protocol, is that it would cost too much to implement. Flannery explains how the Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics (ABARE) calculated that our real gross national expenditure would fall by between one quarter and one half of one per cent

per annum if emissions were cut in the way European nations were advocating. ‘This was touted as shocking news by the then Minister for Minerals and Energy, Senator Warwick Parer, who proclaimed in Parliament that this would cost an Australian family of four about $7,600 per annum.’ Independent economists reviewed the ABARE calculations and found them to be distorted. Closer scrutiny revealed that part of the study had been funded by industry groups such as the ‘Australian Aluminium Council, Rio Tinto, Mobil and other like-minded groups, all of whom had received a seat on the study’s steering committee,’ reveals The Weather Makers.

S

cientists say that a 70% reduction in CO2 emissions from 1990 levels by the middle of the 21st century is required to stabilise the earth’s climate. The transition to carbon-free economy is achievable Flannery says. ‘The European nations are talking of emissions cuts on this scale, but given the intransigence of the coal industry and the policies of the current US administration this may be unachievable as a global target.’ ‘We have the technology it is only a lack of understanding and the pessimism and confusion generated by special interest groups that is stopping us from going forward.’ ■ Tim Flannery will speak at the Byron Bay High School at 7pm tonight (Tuesday). If you miss that session catch The Echo’s interview next week when we ask him what actions individuals can take to slow down climate change and what society must do to save the planet.

Turtles hatching in the Bay Byron Bay resident Warwick Anderson was delighted to discover turtle nesting sites along Main Beach earlier this year. Having found the sites by chance, he continued to observe them over a period of time and early one morning was fortunate to observe the hatchlings scrambling down to the water. It is not uncommon to see adult turtles swimming in the Bay, but nobody seems to have seen baby turtles in the

water, raising the question of what happens to the hatchlings once they get to sea. According to Ian Kerr from the Marine Parks Authority, little is known of the hatchlings who seem to reappear after about ďŹ ve year when they are about 40cm long. It is believed that they drift with surface currents and try to survive the harrowing years before adulthood when their shells become more formidable and only man and large

sharks pose a threat. Researchers refer to this period of time as ‘the lost years’. We are extremely lucky in Byron Bay in that ďŹ ve of the six species of marine turtles found in Australia have been recorded in these waters. Three of these species, the Loggerhead, the Green and the Leatherback have been recorded as nesting in the area and can lay anywhere between 60 and 1300 eggs at a time. Depending on the

sand temperatures, gestation takes about 60 to 75 days and like many reptiles, the sex of the hatchlings can also be determined by sand temperature with males resulting from lower temperatures and females from higher temperatures. Unfortunately, due to minimal parental care, few hatchlings survive to breeding age; it is believed that only one hatchling in one to ten thousand will survive to adult-

hood. Marine turtle hatchlings and the ping pong ball size eggs laid by the adult females have many natural

predators including birds, animals and fish. Another problem for the hatchlings is artiďŹ cial lighting which draws them towards it and away from the safety of the ocean. Mr Anderson was concerned that the recent construction of a dune stabilising fence across the nesting ground may prevent the reptiles from returning to a preferred nesting ground. However, Ian Kerr was quick to reassure that this would be unlikely. ‘There is research to suggest that a hatchling is imprinted with a “magnetic mapâ€? of where it was born, although there must be exceptions to this rule otherwise all turtles would still be laying on the same beach,’ said Mr Kerr. ‘However, Byron Shire Council has consulted the Department of Environment and Conservation (DEC), Cape Byron Marine Park and also Col Limpus from Queensland National Parks and Wildlife Service who is probably the world authority on turtle behaviour and believes that any turtle who attempts to nest where the dune fence is will move along the fence until a nesting site is found or move to a different location further along the beach.’ So the good news is that turtles are likely to continue nesting on our beaches, however, please remember that turtles are a protected species, whether they are alive or dead, so all nesting sites should be reported to the nearest DEC or marine parks ofďŹ ce where staff will monitor the progress and safety of the hatchlings.

Farewell, Melissa Ades Widely acclaimed and locally loved artist, Melissa Ades, died peacefully last Thursday after a thirteen year battle with breast cancer – fulďŹ lling her ďŹ nal wish to be at home with the two great loves of her life, her husband, David, and daughter, Amelia. Melissa had a deep impact on the Byron community, not only through her extraordinary artistic talent, but also her disarming humanity and irresistible irreverence to the common codes and conventions of life – and cancer. Never one to take a platitude lying down, she demanded honesty from the outset – from her doctors, her carers, her friends and her family – and in return she shared with us her life, and her death. Melissa was a fiercely beautiful woman who personiďŹ ed the passionate life. From her early years following her father through the trade routes of South East Asia to her adult life as an Adelaide art student then later as a successful textile and fashion designer with stores in Melbourne and Sydney, and ďŹ nally as a fulltime painter in Indonesia and Byron Bay, she knew only

She and Amelia had just returned to Australia for tests after discovering a lump in her breast and a friend took her to a gig to see this ‘most charming and irresponsible’ saxophonist. The connection was immediate and a few days later he was sitting at the end of her bed as she came to from the biopsy. They have been together ever since. Melissa responded to the diagnosis by picking up her paint brushes. Following a mastectomy she returned to Indonesia with Amelia and

David and commenced the most proliďŹ c period of her artistic career – an exquisite, ethereal, ďŹ gurative exploration of nature, humanity, repentance and redemption through the female consciousness. As reported in a Jakarta Post proďŹ le at the time, she realised ‘the unavoidable truth that she was made to paint‌ [and] was forced to recognise that there might not be a tomorrow in which she could’. As all her friends will attest, Melissa had a tell-it-like-it-is honesty that she expressed with razor-sharp wit, infectious humour and blasphe-

Tragic death of Disha Tatjana Schluter

and would like additional information

Bhakta Huerkins On September 8 at daybreak, Disha Tatjana Schluter died as a result of complications caused by an ectopic pregnancy. She was 36 years old and exactly eight weeks pregnant when she left her empty body in my arms in the most graceful and tender way you can imagine. She taught me in life, and she teaches me in her death to keep a door open to the unknowable. Disha: marriage celebrant, death celebrant, counsellor, skydiver, oceandiver, performer, singer, dancer, unconditional loving being, and so much more.Yes, she left at her very peak. The night before she died, we were both concerned that the pain she was in was due to an ectopic pregnancy, and she spent nearly three hours at our local hospital where she was treated for gastroenteritis. She was given medication and sent back home to Upper Wilsons Creek, Mullumbimby, before midnight. I called the hospital again for an ambulance during the night and was assured it was gastroenteritis and to ride it out. The way her death was acknowledged and celebrated in our community was a reection of the greatness of her being.

Disha, pictured recently with her new puppy

With the help of this community, who poured in their love and creativity, she got a ‘royal’ send off, one I wish for us all. Disha’s body was brought back home and washed by her mother, my mother and all her girlfriends, and was laid out like a princess in her living-room in the exact spot where she had died. Hundreds of people came and bathed her with their last smiles and tears. As her beloved I thank you all. What an honour it has been for me to be part of this celebration, part of this great mystery. There are so many people to thank: everybody at Sama-

sati, all her friends who truly did rise to the occasion, Windhorse Gallery, Shikara Design, Zenith, Jeffrey, Lismore Base Hospital staff, everybody; from the very bottom of my heart, I thank you. These are the words Disha wrote in her will which evoke her essence and her huge heart. ‘I love you beyond the form of this body, I know there is so much more than this physical domain and I trust this mysterious existence. ‘I am eternally grateful that I have been so blessed to live this beautiful life. It could not have been more beautiful and I could not have felt more loved by you all.

Quite simply art that is worn‌. the art gallery environment is replaced by a ‘Cirque de Soleil’ type creative space for Performing Arts to synthesise with the visual. The magic of dance, music, drama, lighting, costume and pageantry all ďŹ nd focus in the performer. The human being as the measure of all things. This unique Shearwater initiative takes the craft arts of fabric design, felting, weaving, jewellery making and body decoration to generate the possibility of an art form that synthesises all of these art forms into one dramatic performance on the school campus over 4 nights, Oct 28 and 29, and Nov 4 and 5.

WOLLUMBIN FESTIVAL Friday, Saturday & Sunday Mt Warning

Mandy Nolan talks to Director Rowan Greaves about what it takes to make a killing e live in a very strange time. Where people with no particular talent can be famous overnight for doing something as obsequious as a bum dance. Where serial killers are like pop stars, skinny blonde daughters of 80’s rock stars are ‘it’ girls and America’s talk show host, Oprah as revered as the Dalai Lama. Thespian Rowan Greaves has just relocated to the North Coast where he is soon to realise a longstanding artistic dream: to direct the Australian premiere production of Ted Tally’s Coming Attractions. ‘I have wanted to do this play for 21 years. I applied for the Australian rights in 1984 and then I searched for a producer, but they all thought it was too bleak and too dark. I thought there was no point in doing it anymore, because it’ s all come true now – but I realised that makes it even more relevant. We do the play in retro style – set in 1984.’ What was exceptional about Tally’s twisted satire, is that he mapped the darkest recesses of

W

our current pop culture, a prophesy of reality TV and a rampant culture of meaningless celebrity. ‘Tally wrote Coming Attractions in 1980 in response to the death of John Lennon and this play is a response to the notion that people could now proďŹ t from their crimes and become celebrity killers. Shortly after this play a law was introduced called Son of Sam law which stops killers being able to make money from their telemovies in Australia we don’t have the same thing so people can proďŹ t from their crimes here. Like Chopper Reid, and a certain woman is considering Cate Blanchett to play her in a ďŹ lm (Irena HatďŹ eld). Tally wrote it in 1980 as a satire, but now it’s like a documentary – it predicts reality TV, and killers becoming celebrities – it forecasts the fact that maybe one day Oprah Winfrey will rule the world. (She has recently muted that she may soon consider running for the presidency). Hearing it now it’s hard to believe it was written

then – we even have a terrorist comedian... when it was revived in New York recently a reviewer said ‘Ted Tally he shot an arrow and twenty years later it’s really hit its bullseye.’ After Coming Attractions, Tally was head hunted by Hollywood honchos to write on their projects, especially considering his rather sardonic take on the marketability of mass murder. ‘After Ted Tally wrote this play he got snapped up by Hollywood, then he adapted Silence of the Lambs for the screen and then went on to do Hannibal and all the sequels. Coming Attraction is the serial killer play with music – with 4 songs in an 80 minute show that leads to an electrifying ďŹ nale. Interestingly the Simpsons are full of things that are in the text like characters saying Aye Carumba, Simpsons’ fans will recognise a few gags – but they appeared here ďŹ rst!’ ‘The target audience is anyone with a dark sense of humour over the age of 15.’

With the edgy themes, Rowan admits he is expecting a younger demographic for the play that he admits is so black it is hysterical. The Actor’s Company has risen to the occasion with many of the actors, Rowan predicts, to be stars in the future. Either that, or serial killers. ‘There’s a lot of dedication to this project from the cast. There’s Max Donati as Mani the agent. The story is the agent discovers this young street punk called Loni, a wannabee criminal, played by Jai Luke Hastrich (Ballina Idol winner) He’s a fantastically talented performer who trained in Wagga as did the actress playing Miss America, Tara Haughton. Although these are all local people... she’s a gorgeous spectacular thing, (Tara) I can’t believe she’s not famous. She’s someone who’s well on her way though. I put Claudia Karvan in her stage debut and Toni Colette in hers.’ ‘We have 5 actors who play over 40 speaking roles – over 8

or 9 each – including Georgia Martin, Jennifer Moore, Jack Claff, John McPherson and Sean Louth Robbins. I am teaching at the Conservatorium at the moment with George Whalley and he is making a ‘special’ appearance in the show.’ The theatre can be a tough mistress. I always compare it to the boyfriend or girlfriend with no money. They cost you a fortune, but you just keep going back. So is theatre viable? ‘As a practioneer, I’d say it’s important to have a trade, but within the industry. Tara our Miss America is also a makeup artist. The average wage of an actor is $10,800 per annum and the poverty line is $15,000 – as far as the viability of theatre as an artform, I believe it’s necessity.’ Coming Attractions, directed by The Actor’s Company, shows for two nights only at the Star Court Theatre in Lismore at 9pm. Tix are Adult $22.20 and concession $17.20. Friday and Saturday, October 21 and 22.

I hate my signature. It’s stupid. People change their names. I wish I could change my signature. I’ve been scrawling it that way for over two decades and it just seems way to self indulgent and almost fraudulent, to try and modify it to suit the person I am now. I am even considering therapy to come to terms with my meek moniker. You see, I was 12 years old when my commerce teacher instructed the class that we would be using the lesson to invent a signature. At the time it seemed terribly exciting – the chance to create a owery mark that signiďŹ ed individuality, independence and presupposed a time when a bank would actually allow me a chequeing account. I had spent years trailing after my mother into banks, ďŹ lling in withdrawal slips with dodgy account numbers and amounts that numbered into the millions, practising my embryonic scrawl, so when the time came to create my own permanent mark I was thrilled. I remember sitting at home for hours trying to make the letters join up, debating whether I should include dots, or wild biro slashings. Of course,

well. Sadly I started mimicking a boy who turned out to be a drag queen. Funny thing is – I’m just like her! Doctors must spend months developing their signatures. It seems ironic that to do medicine you need a super high IQ, but not high enough to make your writing legible. I once had an affair with a doctor – he wrote me the most beautiful love letters. The only problem was, I had to take it the the chemist so the pharmacist could read them to me!

I decided it should be mainly illegible, and very small, because after all I was 12 and I didn’t want anyone to think I was trying to be noticed. So here I am, an enormous woman with a tiny little insigniďŹ cant sign off. It just screams ‘insecure’. It’s the only clue that remains to the existence of Mandy the quiet studious country girl who wore overalls, mustered cattle, read Tolkien and dreamed of the day her Mum would allow her to have a root perm. I’ve read the handwriting expert columns in the New Idea and I know I have serious problems. Thank god I stopped dotting my ‘i’s’ with a small circle instead of a dot, because thats the mark of a fatuous fool, and sloping backwards, doesn’t indicate a left hander, but a negative, evil pessimistic person, and the large block letters, well you could be called ‘unspiritual’. If your handwriting can reveal your deeper nature, then surely changing your writing can improve some of those unsightly faults. It’s the ultimate personality makeover. If you can’t manage to change your life, then I suggest you just change your handwriting and the rest will follow. Do what I used to do at school. Observe a girl that you want to be just like and then start copying her handwriting. Pretty soon you’ll be so much like her she’ll think you’re her as

Already in its ďŹ fth year, Wollumbin Festival has made a commitment to walk the talk and are planning on putting bark to the environmental bite on site by planting 1000 trees during the 3 day festival. The plan was hatched after the Water Forum from last year’s event, where participants repeatedly expressed their wish to ‘do something’ rather than just talk about it. So this year, festival goers get a chance to make real changes by re-vegetating the banks of the creek opposite the Tyalgum Showgrounds. The Wollumbin Festival is a community based, family orientated, multicultural event and takes place over three days at the Tyalgum village showground in the Tweed hinterland, in the shadow of Wollumbin/Mt Warning. It runs from noon Friday to sunset Sunday. As well as being given the opportunity to listen to Bundjulung Elders talking about their values and culture and watch traditional corroboree dance; there are also kids

activities, stalls, environmental exhibitions, free workshops plus music with great bands including: The Bliss Mongers Collective, Bertha Control, African drummer Elliott Orr’s Spankinhide, Gossamergaia, Montage and The Tribe which blends the dynamic music from Murri man Troy and Trevelyn from the African nation of Zimbabwe.

ii BYRON DAYS AND Arabian Nights are about suspense – about sex, betrayal, murder, love and the worthiness of a good story teller. Once upon a time there was a Sultan who happened to ďŹ nd his beloved wife performing some horizontal folk moves with his best friend. Of course he got a little cross and had them both killed. This instilled in him a pathological distrust of women. In a move that was to make him one of folklore’s most famous serial killers, every night he bedded a concubine, and at morning he had her killed. But one day, along comes Scheherazade, a smart and sexy lass who belonged to a poetry collective. On the ďŹ rst night she narrowly avoided a good rogering by telling a story. Of course she didn’t ďŹ nish it, so she was spared to continue her story the following evening. She kept this up for 1001 nights, by which time the Sultan was completely in love with her, his heart was restored and she kept her head. I have often considered what to do if I was ever attacked, and I have to admit, I’d never thought of telling a story, I was always told to kick em in the cods and yell â€˜ďŹ re’. The stories that unfold are completely magical, and create the fantasy that is the Arabian nights – a ďŹ tting name for an evening being presented at the Suffolk Community Hall that brings the colour and beauty of Middle Eastern music and dance, inspiring Indian music and poetry to the stage. Featured band are Camoon, headed by Yuval Ashkar on Oud, Cumus, and percussion and vocals with Guy Madigan on percussion. The beautiful Ayelet shows us the wonders of the dancing belly and the queen of the strings, Ms Clies Pearce, brings her fusion from jazz and Indian music with poetry from the east by Max Ryan and Lilith as MC.

Singer, songwriter, Zia will launch her CD, and the ďŹ lmclip to the single ‘Underground’ with her band at the Beach Hotel on Friday. With brains, beauty and one badass bass, Zia is a veritable talent trifecta. This is exempliďŹ ed in the ďŹ rst single off her new EP, Underground, which is as much a journey of pure, unadulterated synth funk as it is a journey of self and sexuality. (The underground) is that place you go in life where it’s like you discover yourself in a dark tunnel, only to come out on the other side. Sometimes in this world we see the light, and we push through to ďŹ nd ourselves, says Zia. Then the other side of the coin is the simple fact that it’s a complete and utter party song, to do with being free and feeling liberated. The end result is an entirely danceable selection of classily structured funk/rock/pop arrangements, with just the right amount of layering, with each element sitting in its place in the mix and with choruses that are catchier than a cold.

ingoism is a term describing chauvinistic patriotism with regard to a hawkish political stance. In plain language it means bullying other countries. The term was introduced by Irish music-hall singer G.H. MacDermott in 1878, when Britain’s PM Benjamin Disraeli convinced the Tsar to retreat from Bulgaria. The chorus of a song by MacDermott and G.W.Hunt sung in pubs at the time gave birth to the term. The lyrics were: We don’t want to fight /But, by Jingo, if we do, /We’ve got the ships, /We’ve got the men, /We’ve got the money, too*. We can’t think of an example of a leader taking a hawkish stance and bullying other countries, so instead, here’s a pic of Hughendon Manor where Disraeli lived. *from Wikipedia

THURSDAY i Melbourne’s DJ Keltec mixes it up at La La Land. Although his most recent compilation is titled Future Breaks Vol 1 and he’s supported most of the major international breaks DJs, his sets cross genres. Having played brass instruments as a teenager and been clubbing since the early 90s, Keltec’s affiliations include jazz, soul, ambient and deep house, and even progressive.

Having played La La Land on Friday, Scott Pullen heads up the coast to Elsewhere to guest at Royale with resident Giv.

MONDAY i UK producer, promoter, DJ and Ibiza regular Jason Herd brings funky house and dirty electro to La La Land.

With several releases on Erick Morillo’s Subliminal label; productions through his own label JFunk on the likes of Hed Kandi mixes; and many acclaimed remixes such as the Bodyrockers; Jason Herd is now working on an album deal with partner Jon Fitz. As a DJ he uses up to four decks, layering in strong vocals, accapellas, funky guitars, pianos, percussion and effects.

LIVEMUSIC ii FEELING INVISIBLE Invisible Friend will be playing in Byron this week with two special shows for north coast audiences. Formerly known as Bedlam, the lads from the hills will hit the coast to dish out another serve of their infectious musical brilliance. With roots deeply imbedded in the blues, funk, rock and a string of other tasty influences, this five piece act craft a diverse blend of original music that tickles the senses and prods at your thoughts, cradling you with a potent groove and melody. Having been likened to so many greats of a particularily diverse musical kingdom, these tune-smiths carry an impressive history of touring and playing nationally. They have also shared their musical genius on an international

level, having spent almost three years in Europe and the United Kingdom. Your Invisible Friend – at the Beach Hotel in Byron on Thursday and the Rails on Sunday.

ii SUPPORT THE STARS! The Black Stars are seeking a local Under 18’s band to open their upcoming EP launch at the Byron Youth and Activity Centre in November. The band has just recorded their debut CD with the legendary Phil McKellar, and strongly believe the all ages scene really understands how difficult it can be for young bands to get gigs. With exposure on Brisbane’s Kill TV, this could be the break some young punk has been waiting for. If you want to be in the running for the opening slot

at the YAC, send the best recording you have of your band to: ‘The Black Stars, PO Box 1649, Byron. 2481’

ii WOODFORD WILLING, LOCK, STOCK AND BARREL After putting in a submission for The Real Gone Hick-Ups to play The Woodford Folk Festival, local artist Jimmy Willing was surprised to find they wanted more than just his band. They want his marionettes, his painted props, a swag of his mates and especially that crazy Czech lady whose puppets have genitals. Yes folks, the latest North Coast art export is our very own Hell Is A Cabaret. Ringmastered by the Devil with a sound track by the Hick-Ups, it is one hell of a show. Luckily for you locals, you don’t have to wait ‘till Woodford to see The Hick-Ups. Catch them at The Rails this Saturday.

THE FORTY YEAR OLD VIRGIN

MUST LOVE DOGS

TURTLES CAN FLY

Q – Why are Australian blokes such fast lovers? A – Because they can’t wait to get to the pub and tell their mates. What this movie lacks in subtlety it more than makes up for with coarseness but, even so, it is edgy, often acutely embarrassing and fresh despite its clichÊs. Andy the virgin is a dag and the butt of all the usual teases of his boastfully promiscuous workmates whose mission is to get him laid. But a slow turning of the wheel suggests he is also a weird anti-hero, an island of non-conformity in a sea of voracious indulgence. It might be reading too much into this crude romance to see it as an expression of the new conservatism masking itself as libertine swagger, when the probable truth is that it is no more than a smart-arsed example of bullseye exploitation of the high-school holiday market – but the conclusion, using Aquarius/Let the Sunshine In as its theme, can be equally interpreted as a liberation for Andy or an indictment of the sexual revolution that marginalised him. Predictable but shrewd, a lamb in wolf’s clothing. John Campbell

There are more ways to kill a cat than by choking it with butter, but nobody told director Gary David Goldberg, who spreads it thick in this warm, amusing and tirelessly nice love story. You are in familiar territory straight away – the attractive divorcee, the comfortably well-off, close knit family, the slightly eccentric but genuine guy whom you want to be the Prince Charming and the suave, handsome single-father who might throw a spanner in the works by seducing the heroine. Does it all work out? Guess. Films as formulaic and recognizable as this rely regularly on insertions of buoyant pop songs for emphasis and moments to remember, but the soundtrack here fails to lift the script above the ordinary. Diane Lane is ďŹ ne as the cautious, self-aware but still vulnerable modern woman of a certain age. John Cusack does a reprise of his High Fidelity character, a role that he has now nailed – he even gets to wear another Ramones T-shirt – and Christopher Plummer, as the patriarch, goes close to stealing the show with his beautiful recital of a poem by Yeats. Not enough dogs.

Turtles Can Fly is the third feature from internationally acclaimed Iranian ďŹ lmmaker Bahman Ghobadi (A Time For Drunken Horses ). The ďŹ lm features a great cast of local non-actor children. The ďŹ lm is set in Ghobadi’s native Kurdistan on the eve of the American invasion of Iraq. Thirteen-year-old Soran (Soran Ebrahim) is known as ‘Satellite’, for his installation of dishes and antennae for local villages looking for news of Saddam. He is the dynamic leader of the children, organizing the dangerous but necessary sweeping and clearing of the mineďŹ elds. He then arranges trade-ins for the unexploded mines. The industrious Satellite falls for an unlikely orphan (Avaz Latif), a sad-faced girl traveling with her brother Henkov (Hirsh Feyssal), who appears to have the gift of clairvoyance. The siblings are care-taking a three-yearold, whose connection to the pair is discovered as harsh truths are unveiled. Turtles Can Fly won the Golden Shell at San Sebastian and the Silver Bear at Chicago and is the Iranian entry to the Academy for 2004 Foreign Film consideration. Turtles Can Fly is humane, funny, and visually acute, but it never shies away from the ugliness that mars these innocent lives.

Michael Moore: As the attack took place, Mr. Bush was on his way to an elementary school in Florida. When informed of the ďŹ rst plane hitting the world trade center, where terrorists had struck just eight years prior, Mr. Bush decided to go ahead with his photo opportunity. [Bush enters the classroom] Michael Moore: When the second plane hit the tower, his chief of staff entered the classroom and told Mr. Bush the nation is under attack. [Bush picks up a children’s book] Michael Moore: Not knowing what to do, with no one telling him what to do, and with no secret service rushing in to take him to safety, Mr. Bush just sat there, and continued to read “My Pet Goatâ€? with the children. [the time is measured on a clock in the corner of the screen] Michael Moore: Nearly seven minutes passed with nobody doing anything. ~ Farhenheit 9/11

ARIES: Aries, let’s face it, are often more self absorbed than self aware, and it’s hard for you to accept things not going the way you want. But being forced to take a long, honest look at yourself, which is reasonably likely this week, could activate a major growth spurt. Really‌

CANCER: Stimulating our ability to see both sides of things, Libran transits are everyone’s chance at adjusting myopic judgments we’ve made and resolving grudges – something which would make this week’s Cancerian wheelings and dealings infinitely smoother.

LIBRA: Anyone thinking Librans are pushovers should consider this week’s birthday toughie, Iron Lady Maggie Thatcher. Since everything you do has a karmic bounceback, employing your signature blend of finesse, elegance and a gracious spirit brings many returns this week.

CAPRICORN: If either/or decisions start getting onerous this week, figure out how you could do both. Or neither. Mars retrograde is good for revising financial management strategies and business plans, doing economic homework and research. But not for making any new moves – yet.

LEO: Got a niggling feeling that people aren’t giving you the real deal or the whole story? You’re not wrong. But since pettiness isn’t in your vocabulary, on a need-to-know basis you don’t really need to know. Wouldn’t hurt to watch your back, though‌

SCORPIO: Mercury moving into Scorpio usually means heaven help the rest of us – but you could say it isn’t so this week. It’s entirely possible for you not to be judge, jury and sharp tongued critic should you so choose – you could be acute, astute, amusing and adorable if you want to.

AQUARIUS: With Mercury in Scorpio you need to read between the lines to understand what’s really going on, and listen to what isn’t being said, which will be more informative than what is – something it pays to be aware of in this week’s interactions.

GEMINI: While your mind’s up in the air with this week’s mental-as-anything rush of new information it’s important that your body stays grounded, otherwise accidents can happen – so do lots of whatever keeps you earthed: physical work, exercise, eating, horizontal folk dancing.

TUESDAY TUES DAY

â– CHINCOGAN HOTEL 5.30PM SALSA CLASSES

TAURUS: If finance is on your mind (and isn’t it always with Taurans?) this week offers some original ideas for breathing new life into an old With Mercury moving project. Brainstorming with into Scorpio, this week’s others will help you find communication carries a creative ways you hadn’t sting in its tail. If you’re thought of to get more bang for your buck. tempted to give

someone the rough end of the conversational pineapple, ask yourself is being bitchy, caustic or cutting really worth it in these times of accelerated karmic comeuppance‌?

â– BUDDHA BAR, BYRON LIVE ACOUSTIC

VIRGO: Endearingly sharing Virgos make it easy for others to accept their gifts or help, but have difficulty asking for what they need. Like the good book says, ask and you’ll receive this week – others will be more open to discussing re-jigging a business or personal relationship.

SAGITTARIUS: If people’s antics strain your not overabundant supply of patience this week, be aware that Venus, now in Sagittarius, decrees: No war, please! Put on a gracious face, because your ability to work with others is at stake.

A painter paints pictures on canvas. But musicians paint their pictures on silence. Leopold Stokowski

PISCES: This week’s stability directly depends on your ability to stay true to yourself no matter what – by refusing to let citizens with high pressure tactics and unsympathetic agendas impose on you, and by avoiding time-wasting company or unnecessary complications.

/PEN lRE PLACE

Cheese-rolling has a rich sporting history on the hills of England but has failed to transplant to Australia. Undeterred, we decided to start our own annual derby on the Myocum clubhouse slopes, inspired no doubt by a morning imbibing mint-andcheddar daiquiris. The right sort of cheese is essential to the task. Abbotsleigh soon found that a round of camembert is not up to Australian conditions. After some experimentation we settled on a particularly hard parmesan made by the Adamantine Friars of Coonabarabran, who are also noted for their monthly circuit of the monastery on their knees and self-agellation with echidna oggers salvaged from road kill. In the English game, keen fromagers chase their cheese down the hillside in order to keep it rolling to the very bottom. This is fraught with peril: ďŹ rstly, one gets exercise and, secondly, a chap could lose his footing in a rabbithole. We opted for other rules. Chaps were to stand at the edge of the clubhouse deck and hurl their cheeses downwards towards plywood efďŹ gies of Celine Dion. Removal of an arm was worth one point, a leg two points, and the inanely grinning head, three. Chaps had three cheeses each and thus could reach a total of nine points. Valets kitted out in wicket-keeper’s gear were positioned beyond the targets to retrieve the cheeses, which were to be recycled as doorstops at the Joan Crawford Memorial Home for the Insanely Jealous. In the great tradition of Highlander, we concluded ‘there can be only one’. No second or third but a grand ďŹ rst prize of four hours with Bizzy Lizzy, the club’s dominatrix-on-call, in the House of Waxing Pain, with a choice of seven specialties including the electriďŹ ed nipple cripple, scariďŹ cation with kittens, and the Green Shower, which of course involves heated creme de menthe. The game proved deucedly difďŹ cult and had a score rate rivalled only by English ďŹ rst division football. Our aim was not helped by the pre-match heart starter of Byron Bay Holiday Letting All-In Early Morning Metallica Fest Cabernet Merlot with its afterpalate of fried schoolie. Cheeses unexpectedly bounced and lodged themselves in shrubs. One splintered fantastically against a granite boulder, the shrapnel bringing down three passing

egrets. Tosser Digby’s attened a trespassing chihuahua. Two valets were treated for concussion. In the end Camberwell took out the prize with a left arm, right leg and a decapitation for a total of six points. One could see the chap go weak at the knees at the vision of the blissful night of abject humiliation ahead of him. (Little did Camberwell know that Bizzy Lizzy had also been given leave to command the winner to enter the Chincogan Hotel wearing only an orange g-string and carrying a zucchini.)

Josh job

Mullumbimby

Vi c t o r i a C o s f o rd October, for people passionate about food, is the month to visit Sydney. The Sydney Morning Herald initiative is now in its eighth year, and becomes more mouth-watering all the time. A celebration of eating and drinking, it includes an enormous range of events such as workshops (chocolate, cocktails, coffee, sourdough and sushi), Night Noodle Markets, special dinners, tours, $35 lunches at Sydney’s best restaurants and a Spring Picnic. Perhaps the best reason to go is in order to attend the Young Chef’s Dinner, and support one of the region’s own. Josh Job, second chef at Byron Bay’s dish restaurant, was the only non-Sydney chef to be selected to help create a 5-course degustation menu on the 16th and 17th of October at Omega restaurant in the city. This is a great honour and opportunity for the 25-year old local whose apprenticeship began at Sushi Wave under Glen de Souza and which continued at dish when owners Ben and Belinda Kirkwood approached him with the offer to do so. Fully qualiďŹ ed two years ago, he still looks too young, too slender, too ďŹ ne-boned for this ruthless industry, though his relaxed and laid-back demeanour suggests he will survive regardless. He tells me that both his parents are very good cooks but it was speciďŹ cally a Scottish grandfather with whom he used to stay on the Central Coast who inspired him to become a chef. When high school (Mullum) ďŹ nished he and his mother were offered a delicatessen to run in Brunswick Heads – they ran this for twelve months, serving homestyle meals and build-

ing up a loyal following. This was followed by Sushi Wave and then dish, consolidating a passion for the clean clear lines of Japanese cuisine which continue to inform Josh’s personal style. The replacement of Tippy Heng from dish with Luke Southwood was to dramatically reshape not only the restaurant’s menu direction but also Josh’s inuences. Spanish and Japanese cooking seem worlds apart and yet Luke’s contemporary take on the former accentuates the same philosophy of black and white and the clean distinction of components on the plate. With the advice and support of his fellow chefs Josh has put together his dish for the Young Chef’s Dinner. Designed not only to promote his skills and exemplify his restaurant, it serves as well to showcase this area, and so he will be offering up Seared Yamba Prawns with White Gazpacho, Olive Oil Puree and a Salad of Green Elk lettuce and Bangalow (sweet pork) Bacon. There will, he assures me, be a Secret Ingredient in there as well...This also happens to be one of Josh’s favourite dishes and one he could even be so bold as to name his Signature. Having only ever worked locally, he would one day love to work in the city or, better still, overseas. With admirable humility he admits that he does not yet feel ready to take on the role of Head Chef: there is still too much learning to do. Anyone unable to make it to Sydney this Good Food Month could do worse than book a table at Fins for the 18th October when Steve Snow is turning on a Moroccan feast. For more details call 6685 5029.

Sports Roundup with Alex McAuley Tutt finishes third in flat water race

Another local man has made his mark on flat water kayaking recently, following in the eminent footsteps of Nathan Baggaley and David Rhodes. Kurt Tutt (pictured above), who has been an active member of Byron Bay SLSC for a number of years, took part in the Men’s Health Ocean Racing Series at Watsons Bay in Sydney last weekend, and finished the 14km race in third place behind champion kayakers Nathan Baggaley and David Kissane. Kurt was delighted with

the result as he is trying to break into the flat water kayaking after years of short course paddling with the surf club. ‘I haven’t competed over that distance before so it was great to come in third behind two great champions,’ said Kurt. ‘My aim is to make an Australian sprint kayak team with a view to being selected for the Olympics.’ In order to achieve these lofty goals, Kurt trains twice a day six days a week both in the Brunswick river and in

the Bay. At 28 years old, he still has about four years in which he can expect to improve his time, so he is putting in a big effort to make it happen. ‘Kayakers are often at their peak when they are older than other athletes, however there are some youngsters who are only in their early twenties who are doing really well, so I need to work hard to beat them to it,’ said Kurt. For more information on the series you can visit their website on www.menshealthoceanracing.com.au.

Tour veteran takes out Rip Curl Pro Kingscliff youngster Stephanie Gilmore won the Rip Curl Footwear Trials at Malibu, California last week to earn a spot in the Rip Curl Pro main event where she will compete against the top 17 women in the world. Gilmore carved a solid reputation as one of the world’s best up and coming female surfers when she won the first event on the WCT women’s world tour on Gold Coast in March this year and maintained her high profile when she finished in front of world champion Sofia Mulanovich in her first round of competition. ‘I’m absolutely rapt. The waves were amazing! I was having flash backs of the Goldy where I wasn’t thinking I was in a heat. I was just

freesurfing and absolutely loving it,’ said Gilmore. ‘I’m just so stoked that Rip Curl put me in the trials and that I was able to get through those and now round one. It’s all going according to plan!’ Six time world champion Layne Beachley was also a standout in the early rounds scoring a near perfect score of 9.8 for her opening ride of round two. ‘It feels good to be back in that scoring range because I think that’s where I should be,’ said Beachley. ‘As a six times world champion, you’ve got to be up there with the best of everybody, if the young girls are scoring nines, then I should be too.’ The biggest standout of the competition, however,

was shock winner and 13 year tour veteran, Australia’s Trudy Todd, who hasn’t enjoyed an event victory for over five years. ‘My last win was in Maui in 1999 – back when I was in my prime,’ said Todd. ‘I broke my back in 2000 and have had cancer twice in the last six years, so I’m retiring because my health is good and I really want to get married, have kids and have a life other than the tour.’ Gilmore was eventually eliminated in round three while Byron Bay’s Laurina McGrath was unlucky to be eliminated in the second round. McGrath is currently ranked number 14 in the world with Pauline Menczer from Ocean Shores at number 17.

Golf Challenge finishes on a high note

TFI trials for international soccer tours After its second successful year facilitating international touring teams for junior soccer players, The Futbol Institute (TFI) is once again inviting boys and girls aged 10 to 15 years to participate in a training camp for selection in this years’ teams. Last year’s international touring squad included two players from the far north coast, and in response to the growing interest in the tour from this area TFI has decided to hold training

camps at Pine Ave soccer fields in Mullumbimby starting on Saturday October 22 from 5pm-6.30pm. All participants will receive an English FA certificate which will highlight areas of strengths and areas which may need improvement. At the conclusion of the camp, players will be selected to play in a number of national and international tournaments depending on their age group. The 10 to 12 year olds will

take part in the Kanga Cup in Canberra while 12 to 15 year olds will travel to the Gothia Cup in Sweden, the Dana Cup in Denmark and play friendly games in the United Kingdom. TFI also conducts specialised coaching sessions tailored for individuals in small groups which are now available in areas near you. For more information on any aspect of The Futbol Institute, please call Mike Cook on 0438 171 292.

Sports Roundup with Alex McAuley Keatyn’s successful swimming career is set to bubble over

At just 13 years of age, Keatyn Simpson from Lennox Head has already set her sights at a world class career in swimming. Keatyn has shown outstanding talent in several sports, having competed at state level in nippers, athletics and swimming since she was only eight. She is now concentrating on her swimming career and is showing excellent promise as a breaststroker.

Keatyn is currently ranked number one in her age group in Australia for the 50m breaststroke and number two in the 100m breaststroke. She also holds state and national records for the 50m and aims to be the ďŹ rst girl to swim the distance under 30 secs. The world record is currently about 30.6s, and Keatyn is swimming it in about 32s, so given her youth and that she has a lot of

growing to do, this is not an unlikely outcome. She has a long list of achievements to her name, having won gold medals at national level for 10 years, 11 years and 12 years at the Australian School Championships held in Darwin, Adelaide and Brisbane. She will now compete in Melbourne at the PaciďŹ c School Games in November, for which she is raising money

to cover her costs. Keatyn has also had the honour of being the NSW team captain at the national titles held in Brisbane last year and has been selected for the NSW Speedo Shark Squad which takes her to the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS) for training camps throughout the year. At her ďŹ rst Australian Age Championships held at the Sleeman Centre, Chandler, in Brisbane in April this year, she won a silver medal in the 100m breaststroke and a bronze in the 200m breaststroke which were presented to her by Olympic swimmer Brooke Hanson. There was no 50m event at the meet. She also swam against world champion Leisel Jones in the 50m breaststroke open ďŹ nal in the Queensland state championships where, at just 12 years old she ďŹ nished ďŹ fth. Keatyn, who is in year 7 at Southern Cross School East Ballina, trains six times per week under the guidance of her father Alan Simpson. She started swimming seriously only ďŹ ve years ago in the dam on her parents’ property where her mother Merryn was teaching and her father
