Mullum show treat for animal lovers Dog and animal lovers will be in seventh heaven at this weekend’s Mullumbimby Show. Over 1200 championship dogs from around the country will be on show from Friday to Sunday with the ďŹ nal judging to take place on Sunday afternoon. Saturday is animal day with draught, showjumping, campdrafting and at riding horse displays, the best of the north coast cattle breeds and of course those colourful chickens. If monster marrows, passionfruit sponges and choko chutneys are more your style then check out the produce, preserves and craft pavilions. Judges will be deliberating over the best of the pavilion produce on Thursday, however the public can view the entries from 9am on Friday. The food hall will be serving up dinner on Friday and Saturday night if the cake

displays make you hungry and there will be rides for children. A ďŹ rst for Mullumbimby will be the on-site school for travelling show children which runs this week. ‘This

means they can travel and the children can travel with them and still have an education without the stress of home schooling,’ said Sue Constable from the Mullumbimby Show.

Show tickets can be purchased before Friday at Mullumbimby Real Estate or the show ofďŹ ce. For more information on the show call 6684 1675 or 6684 2065.

New coordinator aims for peaceful NYE Taking on the weighty responsibility of coordinating New Years Eve in Byron Bay is long term local Debra Turner (also known as Pavitar), pictured right. ‘I’m pleased to take on the challenge of helping to make a difference this year and excited about the theme Peace and Environment which reects the community vision,’ said Pavitar, who has been appointed coordinator by the Byron Bay New Years Eve Safety Committee ‘Our plan is to invite the community to join together in creating a safe, transformative experience to reclaim the soul of the town. It’s time to rekindle the community spirit of Byron Bay.

Together we can do this.’ ‘Byron Bay’s popularity and its location as Australia’s most easterly point attracts large crowds. Everyone wants this coming New Years Eve to be a family friendly inter-

active occasion. Locals will generously share our wonderful town with visitors who respect and are touched by the magic that we have here.’ Pavitar says the ban on taking and consuming alcohol in public areas in the town centre will make a big difference to safety issues and allow for more friendly and safe activities in the streets. ‘We want to make everyone feel welcome. We have such a rich and diverse culture to share and explore. Our vision includes participation and co-operation from the myriad of groups and individuals that make up the fabric of our community.

‘So far we have a great team of creative volunteers, and urgently need more. I would like to extend an invitation to everyone who would like to become a part of this. ‘People interested in performing, creating, or contributing in any practical way either on the night or beforehand please contact me. I would love to hear from you,’ said Pavitar. ‘I am sure that with participation of many locals, businesses and community groups Byron Bay can reestablish its unity through community.’ Pavitar can be contacted on 6685 3365 or email pavitar@byrononline.net.

ing freelance journalist and manuscript assessor and in 1997 she conceived of, researched and co-wrote the ďŹ rst edition of The Australian Writers’ Marketplace. This was a book for its time – it trebled in volume in the ďŹ rst five editions and is now widely regarded as a favourite companion digest for Australian writers. Rhonda has since put out two other books on writing and publishing. She works as a teacher and corporate trainer, focussing on areas of editing and clear writing.

The seminar will be held from 5.30pm to 8.30pm on Monday, November 28, upstairs in the Byron Bay Community Centre in Jonson Street, Byron Bay. There will be a short break and light supper during the seminar. Tickets are $15 for NRWC members and $20 for nonmembers. For bookings and information contact the Writers’ Centre on 6685 5115 or email susie@nrwc.org.au. Early bookings are strongly advised as numbers will be limited.

Writers centre offers memoir writing workshop ‘Memoirs are not just written by the good, the famous and the beautiful. Every achieved life is signiďŹ cant in its own way and worth recording.’ This is the belief of Dr Shirley Walker, who will conduct a workshop entitled The Writing Of Memoir in Byron Bay on November 26. The workshop will be held at the

Byron Bay Beach Resort from 10am to 4pm. Dr Walker is a specialist in Australian literature whose own memoir Roundabout at Bangalow: An intimate chronicle has aroused much interest, running into two editions and being short-listed for two major literary awards. This workshop, which is part of the workshop pro-

gram for the Northern Rivers Writers’ Centre, is designed for those who wish to write an account of their own life as distinct from their family history. Those attending the workshop are asked to bring with them a short excerpt from their proposed memoir for discussion. Interested people who have not begun the

writing process are also welcome to attend. Numbers for this workshop will be strictly limited and bookings are essential. The fee for NRWC members is $38.50 and $55.50 for non-members. For bookings and information contact the Writers’ Centre on 6685 5115 or email susie@nrwc. org.au.

Craig seeks help with travel service for disabled Craig Rosenkranz is a local man looking for sponsorship to help get his business plan off the ground. This may sound like thousands of people you know, but Craig is, in fact, unique. He is a man who became conďŹ ned to a wheelchair after an accident left him a quadriplegic, and his business idea grew as a direct result of his disability. Craig is in the process of establishing a travel information service for people conďŹ ned to wheelchairs. He will be gathering information about outdoor travel, swimming, ďŹ shing, boating and camping in national parks and state forests. He will visit places that he has found suitable in the past and document the speciďŹ cations from the point of view of a person in a wheelchair: degree of access, activities available, amenities etc with a focus on the Northern Rivers. ‘Currently in Australia

there is no outdoor travel information service speciďŹ cally for people in wheelchairs,’ said Craig. ‘Most people in wheelchairs are backward in getting out there and having a go. I want to show them that with a little planning and imagination, there are outdoor activities in which they can take part.’ Craig has been pleased to ďŹ nd that there are lots of businesses and clubs in this area offering assistance to people in wheelchairs with recreational activities, but the major stumbling block he is facing at the moment is that he had his specialised trailer and camping equipment stolen last year. ‘If I could get sponsors to help with replacing my trailer and camping equipment as well as a suspension rebuilt on my bus it would get me on the road,’ said Craig. ‘I will give the sponsors plenty of exposure and will be seen

to support the spirit of adventure by helping people of all levels of ability to be active. ‘I am ďŹ lming a documentary about me travelling in remote areas, running workshops and participating in

adventurous activities, pushing the boundaries of my ability.’ To ďŹ nd out more, you can visit Craig’s website www. craigros.com or contact him on 0427 121 555.

Condon Hill plans still resisted The recent public information session for the Condon Hill development application has stirred up the debate over the issue once more. According to Victoria O’Connor from Lennoxcare, the amended development application is deďŹ cient in a number of areas including ten very important reports that are yet to be prepared. ‘This DA is lacking much of the important detail and we need time to look at it and comment when all the documents are in,’ said Ms O’Connor. ‘It is obvious that the Brisbane based project manager has not been listening to the Lennox community who have indicated over and over that they do not want to be able to look out from the hill but to look up at the hill, and not one with

a lookout, paths and signage. We have Pat Morton lookout for that; Condon’s Hill is the backdrop to the village.’ Ms O’Connor is concerned that ‘no supplementary trafďŹ c study or safety audit for the proposed roundabout at Ballina Street is available, nor data for a new proposed entry through Blue Horizon Drive. Further, Ms O’Connor claims that buildings have been dug into the hillside to reduce their legal height above the natural ground level, but what the community is interested in is how high they look from the front, and in some cases they are four storeys high and very densely built.’ ‘This development is not in keeping with the recommendations by the former Department of Environment,

Local News Will Banks farewelled at Brunswick Heads

Jill Trevillian remembers her husband Will Banks as an adored, eccentric adventurer, a keen sailor whose prescient wish was that, should he be lost at sea, his body not be found – he wanted to be consumed by the ocean. About 200 relatives and friends came together at Brunswick Heads last Friday to honour and give thanks for having known Will and Joel whose ultralight aircraft crashed off Tyagarah Beach more than two weeks ago.

Leave flying foxes alone, urges NPWS The National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) is asking for the community’s tolerance as flying foxes return to the Northern Rivers to feed on flowering plants such as eucalypts, banksias and paperbarks and to raise their young. Area Manager for the National Parks and Wildlife Service, Mr Mark Pittavino,

said three species are regular visitors to the area and include the Grey-headed, the Little-red and the Black Flying Fox. ‘It is important that the ying fox colonies are left undisturbed. Disturbance may result in the premature birth of offspring or cause the females to abandon their young. The female bat gives

birth to the young whilst hanging upside down. The baby is licked clean and enclosed by one wing to keep it warm and dry. At this time the ying fox are particularly vulnerable to disturbance. ‘The Grey-headed and Black Flying Fox are threatened species and anyone found harming ying foxes is liable to prosecution.’

Street Cruise welcomes support Street Cruise is an initiative of Byron Youth Service and provides a street based service for local young people aged under 18 who are in the Byron CBD between 8 and 12pm on Fridays. The program focuses on safety issues for young people who may be at risk in that environment at night. Street Cruise relies on community donations and support to keep functioning and a $450 donation from Earth and Sea Pizzas as their charity of the year was gratefully received. ‘We also rely on our wonderful team of volunteers who man the rotunda in Railway Park and give out information and condoms and refer young people who may be experiencing difďŹ culties to the Street Cruise workers who cover the main area of town and Apex Park,’ said the group’s press release. ‘Workers can assist young people who are under the influence by making sure they have a designated member of their group who is able to watch out for their mates, use taxi vouchers to get young people home safely, liaise with the police where appropriate and call the ambulance or escort young people to the hospital if need be.

‘Conversations with young people focus on the effects of binge drinking, having respect for their town and other people, safe sex information, safety information such as carrying mobiles, staying in groups and letting friends know if they are going somewhere on their own and providing referral to other services where possible. Every young person has parents, friends and siblings who

want to know that they are safe and our intervention prevents many incidents from escalating or having more serious consequences. ‘We are also looking for more volunteers. Earth and Sea Pizza will be donating a large pizza every Friday night to volunteers as an added incentive. If you an volunteer a few hours of your time please ring Deborah on 6684 3086.’

Local News Compassionate communication target of DVD

Budding film makers Matilda Stevens, Hayley May Bracken, Lachlan Mc.William eager to get involved with the Compassionate crew Karen Austen, Lisa Apostolides and Rob Trendell.

Ten young people from Byron Shire will be given a unique opportunity to become involved in a multi level DVD project about Compassionate Communication, due to start next month and continuing next year. As a not for proďŹ t project it has received preliminary funding from the Northern Rivers Community Foundation. It will enable the young people to receive a nationally accredited qualiďŹ cation, professional mentoring by the ďŹ lm crew, on-the job experience in addition to training in Compassionate Communication. The DVD will follow a unique process from scripting through to the spectacular launch event, forming creative partnerships with local industry, community groups and educational institutions. Lisa Apostolides, producer and project manager, is grateful for the support the project has already received: ‘I really want to thank the Northern Rivers Community Foundation, ACE, ByronYouth Service, Screenworks and Northern Rivers Conservatorium of Arts. Without their continued

help this project could not be possible.’ A behind the scenes documentary will capture the participants’ learning and modelling of compassionate communication throughout the entire process. The professional crew will receive mentor training through the already well established Byron Youth Service program. Director of BYS, Paul Spooner, sees this as ‘a fantastic opportunity for local young people both in terms of professional mentoring and career pathways’. Through further sponsorship and funding, the Compassionate Communication

DVD is intended for use in conjunction with specialised workshops, as a dynamic learning resource for local community and education groups. Lisa is looking for five businesses to become major sponsors and is offering advertising incentives. If you wish to support this dynamic local project please contact Lisa on the numbers below. If you are aged between 16 and 24, have not completeted year 12, currently not working, have a keen interest in ďŹ lm and can work well in teams please contact Lisa Apostolides on 0403 023 693, 6687 2207 or lisa@ sparkproductions.net.au.

Local shutterbug takes national prize The WorkDirections Australia 2005 Black & White Photography Competition aim was to have entrants capture an image that represented one of the themes Hope, Individuality, Dignity, Dream or Independence and to describe in 100 words or less how the image ďŹ ts with the theme. Entries were open to submissions from Byron Bay, Darlinghurst and Bondi ofďŹ ces. The words that went with winning photographer Sonia Friedrich’s image ‘Dream Big’, on the theme of independence, were: ‘Dream big. Keep moving and run toward your future. Your freedom lies here.’ The winning entry was judged on representation of the theme and photographic creativity. The winner received a photography prize pack valued at over $1500 including a Pentax digital SLR camera, Sigma lens, Inca tripod, Epson printer and more. In return, winning the competition allows 12 months exclusive use of the image by Work Directions. It will be used in their annual report. ‘I think it’s pretty amazing and I’m blown away by the generosity of the package,’ said Sonia.

Sonia Friedrich with her winning image’Dream Big’, her employment adviser Tess Schembri and Narelle Polwarth the communications officer with Work Directions parent company Ingeus.

WorkDirections says it is committed to helping people ďŹ nd meaningful employment. ‘We develop a back-to-

work program for all job seekers that can encompass training, support or simply advice – whatever suits the individual.’

Meeting on terrorism bill There will be a public meeting in the Heartspace above Santos Mullumbimby at 5pm on Wednesday to discuss the Anti-Terrorism Bill 2005 and proposed sedition offences currently before parliament. There will also be discussion about writing a submission to the Senate Legal and Constitutional Legislation Committee. All those concerned, and/or involved in the arts are invited and encouraged to

attend. Local ďŹ lmmaker and political activist Dean Jefferys said, ‘I am extremely concerned these proposed laws have the objective to stop free speech, challenge the right to peaceful protest and the stop the questioning of bad government policies on all levels. If these draconian laws are passed I could be thrown in jail for seven years for assisting an organisation or country at war with the Commonwealth.’

Labor’s alter ego keeps the flame alive Vol 20 #25

November 8, 2005

Back to the drawing board Byron Shire Council just spent six years rewriting Byron Bay’s main planning regulation, the LEP or local environment plan. It’s not perfect, but it seems to have tackled all the major issues left in the too hard basket and ensured considerable protection of environmentally sensitive areas, of which the Bay has many. Just as Council is ready to send the draft LEP for Byron Bay off to the NSW Department of Planning for approval, the state government says dump it in favour of a Standard or template LEP to be introduced by all councils across the state. Sydney based Total Environment Centre has described the Standard LEP as the lowest common denominator which will pull the worst of the pro development councils into considering the environment but in pro environment councils like Byron could force them to allow more development. Councillors will look this week at a report from planning staff on the ramifications of the government’s proposed LEP. The report claims the LEP has major flaws and many alterations will be needed to meet local needs. The Department of Planning has advised Council that Byron is in a group of north coast councils required to have a standard LEP in place within three years of the Minister finalising the planning order that will enable it. The minister’s aim is to finalise the order by December 2005, which is very little time to go back to the drawing board after six years of site-specific work. Staff say the range of zones in the standard LEP does not address the expected planning needs for the shire. Byron Shire is quite different from say, an inner city council area and will need different zones. For example, the standard LEP provides only three environment protection zones of which one is effectively for national parks and nature reserves, one is for waterways, leaving only one zone to protect the varied sensitive environments in the area. Council will not be able to add or subtract zones. Staff also note that the standard LEP may generate applications that Council considers inappropriate which are then refused and subsequently lead to legal appeals. It is also likely that an appeal to the planning minister might get a result for the applicant. Given that current minister Frank Sartor has just done away with many hectares of ‘green zone’ in new subdivision sites around Sydney, it does not augur well for Byron, especially in the case of big developments such as Becton’s proposal. According to the Total Environment Centre’s Fran Kelly, ‘Where councils have spent many years developing stronger LEPs that truly reflect the different types of environment in their locality, while offering certainty to developers and the community, this “one-size-fits-all” LEP will take them back to a broad brush approach that offers maximum flexibility to developers and minimum community and environment protection… It is not surprising that the property industry and developers have so enthusiastically endorsed this LEP Template.’

raham Freudenberg is hardly a household name to Australians; but among Labor supporters at least, he should be. For more than forty years he has worked for the ALP as adviser, speechwriter and alter ego to federal leaders Arthur Calwell, Gough Whitlam and Bob Hawke and to state leaders Neville Wran, Barry Unsworth and Bob Carr. In the process he has become a living symbol of continuity for the party: a keeper of the trust and a tender of the flame. Last week he launched his long-awaited political memoir, A Figure of Speech (published by John Wiley) at a tribal gathering which included three former prime ministers and three former premiers – surely a record for a book launch. As was to be expected there was plenty of nostalgia, with many recollections of the great political events in which Freudy was involved. But one occasion, and one speech he wrote just forty years ago, stood out. It is worth quoting its conclusion: ‘The course we have agreed to take today is fraught with difficulty. I cannot promise you that easy popularity can be bought in time like these; nor are we looking for it. When the drums beat and the trumpets sound, the voice of reason and right can be heard in the land only with difficulty. But if we are to have the courage of our convictions, then we must do our best to make that voice heard. ‘I offer you the probability that you will be traduced, that your motives will be misrepresented, that your

patriotism will be impugned, that your courage will be called into question. But I also offer you the sure and certain knowledge that we will be vindicated; that generations to come will record with gratitude that when a reckless government wilfully endangered the security of this nation, the voice of the Australian Labor Party was heard, strong and clear, on the side of sanity and in the cause of humanity and in the interests of Australia’s security.’ As many readers will have

It was a landmark speech; but, as a number of prominent Labor people were muttering under their breath, it was the sort of speech we will never hear from Kim Beazley, and not just because he doesn’t have a Freudy on his staff. There are a very large number of Labor people outside parliament and a good few inside it who would love to be traduced in the manner described if only the ALP would take a stand against the government’s cynical campaign on the War on

If it were not for the restraining forces in his own party Beazley would be into the idea of a united front with ears back and all guns blazing. by Mungo MacCallum recognised, this was the speech Arthur Calwell gave on May 4. 1965, opposing Australia’s entry into the Vietnam war. It is remarkable for its prescience and eloquence, but also for its courage; in the beginning the Vietnam war was a wildly popular cause in Australia. A year and a half later the new prime minister, Harold Holt, was to win what was then a record majority in a khaki election, and Calwell, by then a three-time loser, resigned from the Labor leadership. But the policy prevailed and, in the end, the vindication that Calwell and Freudenberg promised arrived, and Labor returned triumphantly to government, its integrity uncompromised and its principles intact.

Terror; but their leader isn’t one of them. It is not that he is simply poll-driven, or that he lacks the political courage, or that he wants to play both ends against the middle; the depressing fact is that he actually agrees with the government’s policy. Indeed, it is even worse than that: he thinks the policy is too little too late, and he wants it toughened up. Let us spell it out: Kim Beazley thinks John Howard is soft on terrorism. If it were not for the restraining forces in his own party he would be into the idea of a united front with ears back and all guns blazing. As it is he has to do a little tut-tutting at some of Howard’s more outrageous political excesses like the recall of the senate to turn

three letters into one in a law change which even Phillip Ruddock admits may never be used (so much for the super-urgent, absolutely definite, undeniably specific terrorist threat of last week); only time will tell, muses out firebrand opposition leader. But even so, Labor will vote for the legislation whether Howard accepts its proposed amendments or not – and one gets the impression that really, Beazley would rather he didn’t. At the Freudy bash, Beazley’s name was never mentioned publicly; like that of his predecessor, the late and unlamented Mark Latham, there was a general feeling that to raise it would be in questionable taste. But it was hard to feel that the attention given to the Calwell speech was entirely coincidental – more than one past leader emphasised that it is still remarkably relevant today. And it was also noted that Labor policy (announced under Simon Crean and pursued vigorously by Mark Latham) was to oppose and end Australia’s participation in Iraq; a policy subjected to much traducing at the time as ‘cut and run’, but now looking increasingly likely to be implemented in the foreseeable future. At least Crean and Latham may, like Calwell, have the satisfaction of being proved right in the end, of having kept the faith. Beazley looks set for irrelevance and oblivion, without even a single memorable speech for a political epitaph – barely a footnote in Freudy’s memoir. Labor supporters, the broad left and indeed the Australian people deserve better.

Old bogeys Now that the Coalition has a majority in both their houses it is not over IR and terrorism alone that their rampant fanaticism is becoming clear. The Weekend Australian last week dredged up the old antidrug bogey by citing a study of South Australian persons ‘facing criminal charges’ which found that well over half of prisoners interviewed used marijuana and ‘party drugs’ and also well over half of those had a mental illness. The article failed for some reason to mention the percentage of those who used alcohol. Mmmm. It also failed to bear in mind that 98% of drug users started out on their mother’s milk, and that 100% of them ingest oxygen with truly frightening regularity. Nor of course did it mention that in South Australia they only lock up extreme cases. Chris Pyne-head, the alleged federal parliamentary secretary for health, also neglected any inference that in the absence of proper mental health facilities it is the criminal justice system which is these days handling most cases of mental illness, ie it’s not really surprising that you’re going to find mental problems among those charged. Nor is it at all surprising that a person with mental problems would seek relief in all possible chemicals. In thus putting the cart before the chicken the conservatives reveal their characteristic intellectual deficit,

sought out the weakest part of the plant, preferably the roots! Any bets that this clown is not a Coalition appointee? Little wonder that young people ignore them. I must ask my newfound soul-mate solicitor Andrew Sochacki, who has defended hundreds of locals charged with minor marijuana offences over the past 25 years (and presumably helped them escape their just desserts), whether these people are in his opinion any more mentally ill than local rednecks. In assessing this he must of course bear in mind that sociopathy is a form of mental illness, ie a lack of conscience, which locally expresses itself in all manner of tricks to get development consent and to rort the ratepayers’ kitty.

The Australian has also been running a series of recaps of its coverage of events leading up to Gough Whitlam’s dismissal 30 years ago, the gist of the series being how prescient The Australian was.That’s funny; I recall very clearly indeed that it was The Australian (read Rupert Murdoch) which led the media beatup which created the climate for John Kerr’s actions. Prescient indeed.

where the only ‘evidence’ that counts is that which confirms their fears. Nor have they noticed that every corner store has fridges full of so-called ‘energy’ drinks, and even Coca-Cola for some reason contains caffeine (I saw one brand which stated on the label: ‘six bottles recommended maximum daily dosage’. Dosage!). In an avowedly competitive society why are the cons so surprised that media-saturated young people might conclude that to remain competitive one has to ingest chemicals? Ditto to be as happy, happy, happy – and self-absorbed – as all those people in advertising land? The article also cited the director of some federal drug information body, who said that part of the problem these days is that people are smoking the strongest part of the plant. That’s right!

Byron Bay â– Are we to believe that the new terrorism laws PM John Howard is pushing for will save us all? Does anyone honestly believe that a new set of laws will help the current situation one bit? There is a law against stealing cars and yet cars are still stolen. I think the government is sidestepping the real issue here: why are acts of terrorism being committed in the ďŹ rst place? All things have a reason and terrorism is no

exception (years of US trade sanctions, exploitation and manipulation in the MiddleEast might be a clue). Any philosopher will insist that prevention is always more effective than cure in any circumstance. Terrorism laws are curative; they look good on paper but do not target the problem. Government policy concerning terrorism would be far more effective if it addressed the problem from a preventative frame of reference. Alistair Schaefer

Forward thinking Going to the post office in Byron to pay my bills is a joy!

The staff are always friendly and patient. I’m in awe of people who work long hours, standing on their feet all day, dealing with the public and yet still manage to smile and be courteous! Thank you for making bill-paying a pleasurable experience! Ironically, it’s when I go to my post-office box around the back that I get angry and frustrated as soon as I lay eyes on those overflowing bins with discarded mail and no

recycling bins in sight. Why can’t we have a big paper-recycling bin installed with a bin beside it for the plastic magazine wrapping and envelope windows (which are made of biodegradable material in many countries so you don’t even need to tear them out anymore)? This huge amount of paper could then be recycled and possibly save a few trees, while reducing the size of landfills. It floors me because this is

Hunt aside, there’s a big problem here ■ The Rex Hunt incident at Byron Bay is reminiscent of the David Hookes case where his well known aggressiveness and addiction to alcohol contributed to his unfortunate death. Hunt seemed to get off more lightly. However, for Hunt to pass his adverse judgement on Byron Bay, and the youth of the town in particular, is an indicator of an egocentric – a big man with a big head. Young people have, since time immemorial, tended to move around in peer groups, not with the intention of attacking innocent and easy targets but for the sheer pleasure of like-thinking company. Even oldies like myself enjoy our pub drinks with the same groups of mates with never a thought of aggression. Of course, if we were provoked there might be a positive reaction, so perhaps there was provocation in the Hunt incident. Thus, it is curious that Hunt failed to press charges and bring on a court case which may well have reflected badly upon himself. Finally, despite Hunt’s bagging of Byron Bay, he must be overwhelmed with his own importance to believe that his views of an unpleas-

ant happening (and the unattractiveness of Byron Bay) would be accepted by tourists and the nation at large, rather than the reality as presented by Mayor Jan Barham, local police, and those of us who have made the Shire our permanent home. Richard L Kidby

Mullumbimby ■ Friday night – having just been to the beautiful and uplifting Tara blessing by a visiting female Lama, onto the Beach Hotel for a shake of the tush and then heading for my car through the arcade opposite and finding myself in the middle of a very sorry scene. Young boy in headlock turning blue in face, being dragged through arcade with ensuing chaos and screaming people. Then big fella turns up with one nasty looking injury on top of balding head (60-years-old), wife and family in tow.Young man of family had been kicked in head five times by young boy (approximately 16 years). Police quickly on the scene and doing very good job. Word gets around that big fella is of some notoriety and tells me they’re just here visiting for a wedding.

Great, welcome to Byron Bay! Man standing next to me, an outdoor food vendor, says just about any night of the week you can see these lost and out of control teenagers on god knows what mix of chemical cocktails roaming the streets. Man tells of male friend in Lennox recently bashed up by ‘kids’. At the Nimbin Mardi Grass I learned of a guy (big guy) walking back from the reggae club ‘set upon’ by a gang of youths. He felt they were out to really do him in and had to fight for his life, ending up in hospital black and blue. And yes we need to scream who are these kids’ parents and where are they in their kids’ upbringing? But also what support do they need in raising these – mainly boys? And I’m sure we’ve all known some single mums and parents who don’t gain the control and respect from a young age, so when these kids reach 13 years – that’s it – they’re gone – hopefully not to an institution! And while I’m on the subject of youth apparently (sourced from a friend’s very mature 16-year-old) date rape is common amongst the teenagers of Byron. And

the parents have no idea. I’d like to see this issue given voice in the pages of The Echo and also to give a section of The Echo to the teenagers to express their views and experiences, pain and frustration, their visions and achievements, help them get through their painful years. Do you remember yours? I remember mine – it was hell! Tiana Ross

Mullumbimby ■ While I commend our mayor in her attempt to portray Byron Bay as a non-violent paradise following the media blitz about Rex Hunt’s fisticuffs, I feel the term fools’ paradise is more fitting. On the evening of Saturday October 29 a group of more than 15 teenagers dressed in black gang colours terrorised the beach side of Suffolk Park for several hours breaking into cars, at least one reported home invasion, playing cat and mouse with police, and running through my property terrorising my partner and children. An isolated case I thought. Then came Monday 31st when after having my house egged by local youths for not giving into their demands for

supposed to be ‘Green Byron’ and yet even in very ungreen Hong Kong there are public color-coded recycling bins for discarded cans, bottles, paper and glass. Why don’t we have this system in the streets of Byron? When it comes to service, let’s hold on to the friendliness reminiscent of the good ol’ days, but when it comes to recycling let’s get progressive and forward-thinking along with the other first-world countries! Suffolk Park

halloween treats (how foolish for not having stocked up for this American delight) I thought I would venture out. I was privileged enough to see a car go past my house and crash into another followed by a policeman running in the opposite direction throwing a projectile at a gang of children, to which I heard a teenager scream: ‘you just hit a kid!’ The police then ran back to their car and calmly drove away. I was on my way to night duty and drove through two groups of youths, past a fire truck and away from ‘paradise’. In the morning, I found a paintless line on my car presumably put there by another disgruntled youth who didn’t get what he wanted. If this is paradise Jan, it’s all yours because I don’t think it is a nice place to bring up children, especially when it appears the parents of many children in Suffolk think suburban riots are a natural part of life. Get a reality check, Jan, and parents, please take some responsibility for your children’s disgusting behaviour. Byron Bay… a paradise lost.

Pro Lot 107

I write as a long-time supporter of wildlife corridors. In addition, I support communities having facilities – in this case Ocean Shores’ sportsfields. I believe a win-win is possible. There’s no doubt both are needed. Those Councillors opposed to Lot 107 Shara Boulevarde sports-fields have stated it’s needed as wildlife corridor. At present there is an existing 200 metre-wide wildlife corridor to the West of Lot 107, and a 290 metre-wide corridor to the East. Cool! Please write to this letters column and tell us exactly which species are not already using the existing corridors. If you have your facts, there’ll be a letter next week. No fauna study has been done, and I’m not personally convinced that this central argument is real. For perspective, bear in mind that Red Devils Park and the proposed Ewingsdale sports fields are also in wildlife corridors, no problem. I believe we’ve already got that win-win. Most people round here don’t want $1.3 million of our (ie. North of the Shire) Section 94 money spent on a less suitable site at Yelgun where, according to the Justin Cruickshank mayor, ‘half is destined for Suffolk Park nature reserve’, half is pro-

Dance therapy There I am, in the beautiful Aussie bush, morning sun streaming through the eucalypts on to the earth dance floor in a bush clearing with a couple of hundred others dancing my heart out.

All the people around me – mostly quite young – are ‘earthed’ (through dancing on the earth in bare feet all night long), are ‘in the now’ (dancing does that) and are smiling and so happy to be just where they are. I know of no other place or situation in life (I am in my fifties) where that is true. Whatever arguments there are both for and against bush doofs, please bear in mind that well organised doofs, such as the recent psy. co.therapy event I attended, provide a space for young people to be safe (yes they are), happy, free and yet connected to both the earth and to each other. What a contrast with the common groups of young people in our towns who tend to be bored, frustrated, disaffected, maybe angry, often alcohol intoxicated, and who feel alienated from both other people, ‘normal’ society, and even the earth. I feel good

about the future knowing that there is this group of heart and earth connected young people out there partying hard at our local doofs. Personally I think that Byron Council should erect a dance floor over the sea at the end of the rocks at Main Beach carpark and pay DJs to provide a venue for young people – and old people and tourists – to feel free, be active and feel connected. Much better than just hanging in the streets, don’t you think? Richard Patton

Vigorous comment on the freeway invasion â– I am lucky enough to drive from Suffolk Park to Newrybar along the Midgen Flat and Broken Head Roads about three times per week. It’s a beautiful drive with old fashioned stalls offering everything from freshly ground coffee, scrumptious fruit, freshly picked vegetables and exotic plants – all grown on the land either side of the road. This week gives the added bonus of signs which have been erected indicating the start and ďŹ nish of the proposed ‘motor way’. It seems to start near Zentveld’s Coffee Plantation and ends about thirty metres from the entrance of the Newrybar Public School – a school that has been educating the youngest members of our community for well over 100 years. I would urge everyone to please take a drive along this part of our world and have a good look at where this proposed motor way is going – six lanes evidently – now is the time to act not when the contracts have been signed and the bulldozers are ripping it all up.

and replaced with 1000 acres of bitumen road for B-Double convenience. Brunswick Heads has already been invaded, and now it is Byron Bay’s turn to receive massive road noise and air pollution. This invasion by the RTA is destroying families in our community. We, as a community, must activate our Voice of One, which will give the state government courage to stand up to the corporate structure of the RTA. We have only 10 days to encourage the RTA to consider choosing another highway route for B-Doubles inland near the Summerland Way. We must also demand that the State Government return to their original agreement with the trucking companies that ‘B-Doubles would not be allowed East of the New England Highway.’ Return them now! The millions of dollars saved from blasting through the St Helena hillside could be used for a moderate Ballina Bypass. Please make your submissions now to the State Government leaders and the RTA, and say ‘no’ to another freeway invasion on our land. We must stop this plan to destroy Newrybar, Lennox Head, Broken Head and Byron Bay. And I wonder why the RTA is planning to carve up some of the most pristine nature in NSW. Who will buy up the farm land surrounding this new freeway? The only thing you could do with this land is to turn it into lucrative housing estates.

â– Byron Bay is now facing a crisis more critical than the Club Med Invasion. Plans have been made behind the locked doors of the RTA to cut a new freeway right through the heart of Byron Bay.

that the advertisement in The Echo for the meeting was misrepresenting the situation (‘Six lane highway for Broken Head’) that there should be truthful advertisements, but some sensational ones were needed too. It brings in the punters. How sensational is turning a statement contained in the RTA’s ‘Route Options Development Report’ (pp 140/141, Cl. 8.10.4.1) that ‘ ‌in the longer term, there may be pressure to have an interchange located somewhere in this section to provide more direct access to coastal settlements from Broken Head north to Byron Bay which could arguable assist aspects of the regional tourism industry’ into a six lane highway? Compounding this deception is the ďŹ nal statement in the advertisement: ‘This is a reality’. In quantum theory perhaps. Bleep. Paul McLisky

Coorabell â– Great question from Peggy Balfour in letters last week, (‘why is the government allowing [rail] to fall into such disrepair’) dwarfed by the full page ad opposite headed ‘Six Lane Highway For Broken Head’. The latter is a certainty. If not in Broken Head then elsewhere in our world heritage studded region. Rail alternatives have to be part of future planning, otherwise the next certainty is that in a few years time the six lane highway, will be ‘upgraded’ to a twelve lane highway. Everything from cornakes and pizzas to car parts and kitchen sinks, almost all of what we daily consume arrives on the back of trucks. To reduce numbers of trucks running on highways through populated coastal centres requires that more goods arrive locally by rail and not shackling vibrant local economies such as ours to dependence on globalised brands and franchises. Shifting freight on to rail costs less than building new highways, is safer and will get a lot of trucks off the road, but on its own it will not stop the momentum for highway building. Provide rail alternatives to private car usage and you have a real chance of moderating

the seemingly inevitable political surrender to always bigger ‘safer’ highways. There are tens of thousands of car trips in our region each day. Many of these are workers, school children, elderly people, students and some of the 1.7 million visitors to Byron each year who would choose to use rail instead of cars every day. There are also thousands of car trips out of our region and over the border each day that a rail link with Queensland would see off our roads every day. Imagine how many less cars there would be in Byron every day, on market days and over holiday periods if there was a door to door rail link between Byron and Brisbane (and hopefully Coolangatta) airport as well as eight or more commuter trains a day linking Byron and hinterland towns with other regional centres. The numbers have been crunched by Price Coopers Waterhouse who estimate that for around ďŹ ve million dollars a year, the shires and cities of Tweed, Byron, Lismore and Richmond River could be linked by up to 16 commuter trains a day. At this price we could have more than ďŹ fty years of train services for the same amount of money already spent on the PaciďŹ c Highway in our region over the last decade. With a similar investment in some freight handling facilities at key points along the line we could be receiving and dispatching a lot more goods by rail. Individual action is important, both in moderating demand for road use and demanding rail alternatives be developed. It is not a battle of rail versus road. It is a battle to achieve a sustainable integrated road and rail system for the region that provides real choices for people and signiďŹ cant beneďŹ ts for the region. We want Trains On Our Tracks (TOOT).

local greengrocers shelves stocked, and their local butcher’s shelves stocked. It’s only the federal and state supported developers, or growthists, that want us to have Woolies shelves. Ask the residents of Maleny in Queensland whether they want their Woolies shelves stocked. If your government wants to foist increased populations and its related community destroying development on our regions, perhaps you would like to get them to help foot the bill to ďŹ x some of the other infrastructure that lies in ruins in the wake of this development. How about funding the repair of our public health system that is being increasingly overloaded, as well as our public education system. And perhaps return our affordable housing that has been squeezed out by ever increasing demand. And perhaps they could fund a communications infrastructure that more closely resembles that available in the city, instead of our current pedal power internet connections. Perhaps our community should be demanding that these other infrastructure items be fixed before we accept your new growthist highway through our communities. Our community isn’t screaming out for a Byron on Byron or a Becton resort. Our community isn’t screaming out for Angels Beach or Suffolk Beach to be turned into moronic suburbia. Our community isn’t screaming out for massive new residential development on the Cumberland ridge. Only the growthists, and their government supporters, are screaming for this community destroying growth.

Highway upgrade in our region, a large audience of local people voted overwhelmingly to support the removal of interstate freight from our local PaciďŹ c Highway and to limit the upgrade to the existing highway route. Such an upgrade would be much less than a six lane motorway, but sufďŹ cient to separate opposite travelling trafďŹ c and create four lanes across its entire length. Evidence was given that the local Councils do have the legal capacity to remove the B doubles from the highway that traverses their jurisdictions. We must unite as a local community behind these objectives or be defeated by the RTA in their endeavour to create a super six lane motorway that is an advantage only to the interstate trucking companies. Thousands of acres of concrete for unique and valuable farming land! Kilometres of house rattling B doubles! ‘Can’t beat the bureaucrats (the RTA)? The politicians just ignore us!’ these thoughts were also in the mind of people when they fought the rapids down the Franklin River, and the powerful forces of the Electricity Authority and the Government in Tasmania. The Franklin still runs free and the bureaucrats and politicians lost! All of us, who live here, both the newcomers and old settlers, value what we have. If we do not ďŹ ght for a reasoned and reasonable highway development we all lose. Where are the voices that support a uniďŹ ed local plan for the highway? If we don’t unite behind the above goals, if we continue to say ‘not in my backyard’ and continue to ‘bag’ our neighbours we are lost. Speak up as one. Send a single message to Iemma and Tripodi! Feed the parliamentary opposition with the arguments. Most importantly the Minister and it seems, local councils, can send interstate trafďŹ c back to the designated national route, the New England Highway. Tell them, ood them with the message. Interstate trucks to the west, safety upgrade on the existing highway the best! Paul M Gannon

We can do anything and everything. Our mini excavator even has a grab for rock walls

many Watego’s and Lighthouse Road residents. Lighthouse Road is unlikely to be repaired before April next year. Geotech assessment of the collapsing road has been sent to the relevant experts who must now figure out what to do and when it might be done. Over the peak holiday period, Council will be replacing the automatic trafďŹ c lights with a far superior model – man (or indeed woman). Mr Lee said he hopes manual operation of the lights might shorten the queues and if everyone smiles and waves avoid a large scale outbreak of road rage. More bad news came in Jan Barham’s response to a question by Cr Tardif about the introduction of parking fees at the Pass, Cosy Corner and Captain Cook’s Lookout. Cr Tardif asked if Cr Barham, who is on the board of the Cape Byron Trust, had pushed for an exemption from the parking fees for locals, along the same lines that the CP stickers guarantee residents free parking in the centre of Byron Bay. Cr Barham explained that legal advice obtained by the Trust indicated they were not able to provide exemp-

tions or discounts for locals because the land is not owned or managed for the people of Byron Shire, but for the people of NSW. Back to the good news. Tim Flannery’s message about switching to solar hot water systems to reduce carbon emissions has inspired the mayor. With the aim of making solar hot water systems more affordable to ratepayers, Cr Barham is suggesting Council contact solar producers and suppliers to see if any will do a deal. And while they are at it try the state and federal governments for any grants which might be hanging around. Reecting on his time in Darwin 25 years ago when most houses had solar systems, Cr Kestle wondered aloud why the future hasn’t arrived delivering solar systems to us all. As someone once said, the future isn’t what it used to be, and as a result greenhouse gases continue to belch into the atmosphere every time most of us turn on the hot water tap. With the exception of Cr Tucker, who announced he was not a convert to solar power, and Cr Tardif, Coun-

A staunch supporter of bikeways, Councillor Lance Shimano has yet to conquer the art of riding.

cillors voted to at least give it a go and see what a call for expressions of interest turns up. When is an address not an address and when is it an act of reconciliation? Council has decided to contact the Geographic Names Board to investigate the idea of including Bundjalung Country on all Byron Shire addresses. Cr Lazarus, who is chairperson of the Aboriginal Consultative Committee, called the idea ‘a simple act of reconciliation that acknowledges and integrates Indigenous history and helps build a shared future’. Ross Tucker called it ‘a very shallow attempt at tokenism’ adding that Council should be consulting with everyone in the community about the idea and not just the Bundjalung elders. Cr Lazarus obtained the majority support and a staff report will come back to Council shortly. And lastly, money was being spent left and right and centre on Tuesday and none of it on horses. $660,000 was allocated to tart up the town’s car parks, the two big projects being the Clarke’s Beach car park, which will be landscaped and delineated, and the car park behind the Hog’s Breath which will get similar treatment. A further $200,000 has been earmarked to reduce trafďŹ c congestion in Byron Bay. The Rex Hunt School of Tourism Management didn’t get up but instead two roundabouts at the intersection of Middleton and Lawson Streets and the intersection of Shirley and Butler Streets got the go-ahead. However another major change is the introduction of one way only trafďŹ c (eastbound) along the beachfront Bay Street from Jonson to Middleton Street and the relocation of the parking spaces currently under the Norfolk Island Pines to the other side of the street. Bay Lane, behind the Beach Hotel, from Jonson to Middleton Street will also be made one way eastbound with no parking along the northern side and loading zones along the southern side.

yron Shire Council’s meeting of Tuesday last week was one of historical, or perhaps hysterical signiďŹ cance. It was the ďŹ rst day since 1994 that the Melbourne Cup had collided with a Council meeting and predictably the public gallery emptied like water down a plug hole as the starting time for the big race approached. To mark the clashing of the two dates, sport featured heavily in the meeting’s early stages. Sporting chappies in Bangalow and Suffolk Park had their hands up for half a million in ‘spare’ cash identiďŹ ed for new sporting ďŹ elds in the south of the Shire. Going in to bat for the new Suffolk Park sporting fields at Baywood Chase, Peter Wegner asked Councillors for $300,000 to add to the $250,000 already allocated to construct the said fields, tennis courts and amenities building. On the Bangalow team, Cr Ray Kestle put in a well argued game plan for $200,000 to develop the ‘western paddock’ next to the existing ďŹ elds in Bangalow, which are apparently bursting at the seams. Cr Kestle scored a goal with all Councillors supporting the in form Bangalow outďŹ t. Sporting wallahs in the north need not panic as an equivalent amount of dosh has also been set aside for the ‘embellishment’ of sporting ďŹ elds in the Shire’s north. Brett Lee, head honcho of things like road improvements, received a bouquet from Cr Tucker for the quality of his plan to spend $1.8 million of federal government Roads to Recovery funds. Over the next four years roads around the shire will be widened, sealed, realigned, kerbed and guttered thanks to the federal government’s largesse. Cyclists needn’t feel left out either. Nearly $200,000 has been earmarked for bike paths and to supply brightly coloured, tight and stretchy bicycle pants to all and sundry. (I lied about the bicyle pants.) And now for the bad news.

Articles Alex McAuley examines the modern epidemic of obesity

A growing problem on our hands

T

he English language is a wonderfully adaptive tool; over the years it constantly evolves to meet the needs of its users. As society changes, so does the English language, creating new words and new meanings for existing words to reflect the new environment. When a word such as ‘overweight’ starts being used by health professionals to describe an epidemic, it is a fair indication that we have an alarming health problem on our hands. As a woman of nearly 40 years, I remember a childhood in which we ate three home cooked meals a day; had virtually no lollies; never had sweet fizzy drinks; played outside all year round, whatever the weather, and the number of overweight children in my class at school fluctuated between none and about one. Things have changed radically since then, and unfortunately they have changed for the worse. According to the NSW Health website on childhood obesity, in the ten year period from 1985 to 1995 the level of combined overweight/obesity in Australian children more than doubled. In 1995 the proportion of overweight

or obese children and adolescents aged two to seventeen years was 21% for boys and 23% for girls. The proportion of obese girls aged seven to fifteen years increased from 1.2% in 1985 to 5.5% in 1995, and the proportion of obese boys increased from 1.4% to 4.7%. If these statistics alone aren’t alarming enough, consider, then, that obese children have a 25–50% chance of progression to adult obesity, and that chance increases to as much as 78% in older obese adolescents. Obese adults who were overweight adolescents have higher levels of weight related ill health and a higher risk of early death than obese adults who became obese in adulthood. There are clear links between obesity and serious health issues such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes. Apart from the long term health problems, the immediate consequence of overweight in children is social discrimination leading to poor self esteem and depression.

S

o what causes people to become overweight or obese? Weight gain occurs when the energy intake from food and drink exceeds

energy expenditure from physical activity and other metabolic processes. Simply put, if you eat too much and don’t exercise enough, you get fat. As the statistics show, it has become increasingly common for Australian children to be overweight and there is a number of reasons for this. Most experts attribute escalating obesity problems to technology: children are more likely now to sit in front of the telly/computer/ video game than they are to participate in physical activity for leisure; we drive our children everywhere instead of having them ride a bike or walk. A NSW Child Health Survey in 2001 found that 40% of children aged five to

twelve years reportedly watch an average of two or more hours of television or videos per day and 15% are reported to play computer games for an average of an hour or more per day. This is time that we as children would have spent playing outside. OK, so that explains diminished energy output, but what about the increased energy intake? The poor eating habits that are becoming endemic in Australia can be attributed to a number of influences. Associate Professor David Crawford from the School of Health Sciences at Deakin University discussed family influences on nutrition and physical activity in children during his address at the 2002 NSW

Childhood Obesity Summit. He told the summit how the family environment is likely to be important because it is where(much of) our children’s eating and physical activity habits are learned and reinforced. It is also the case that the family environment mediates the influence of the broader environment. A Deakin University study ‘Children and Family Eating’ which surveyed 560 families of five to six year old children across Melbourne highlights the importance of family environment on children’s eating. It shows that children who watch more television consume higher energy intakes; that children in families from lower socioeconomic status (SES) backgrounds watch more television and consume more energy than children in high SES families; that low SES families are significantly more likely than high SES families to watch television during mealtimes.

T

his raises another issue in the debate: television food advertising. Is it a coincidence that, according to a study done by NSW Health in June 2002, fast food restaurant advertisements are broadcast up to three times more heavily during children’s programs than in adult programs? I don’t think so. Kaye Mehta from the Coalition on food Advertising to Children told the 2002 Obesity Summit that television is the primary medium used by branded food companies and fast food chains to market their products to children. At the current rate that Australian children watch television, they are exposed to up to 52 minutes of advertising daily. Furthermore, food ads comprise approximately 34% of all those shown and disproportionately promote foods of high energy density and low nutritional value such as chocolate, confectionery, fast food and sweetened breakfast cereals. For those of us who watched the ABC’s Four Corners program on obesity recently, we had the comfort of being reassured by Federal Health Minister Tony Abbott that advertising merely provides information and people are free to make their own choices. Hmmmm. While there is truth in that statement, consider this: recent studies confirm that children from families with high TV use during meals consume more of the highly advertised ‘unhealthy food’ and children who watch more television are fatter than those who

watch less. In other words, television advertising works, otherwise it wouldn’t be such a lucrative industry. It would appear that there is no simple solution to this growing health problem. Yes, Mr Abbott is right that we all have freedom of choice, but that logic could also be applied to tobacco advertising which was eventually banned due to the concerns over the long term health effects of smoking on our society. The reality is that what we have here is a shared responsibility. As the government currently appears to have overlooked social issues in favour of economic reform, perhaps we can momentarily ignore the immeasurable emotional costs of overweight and obesity and speak the language of politicians: money, money, money.

A

ccording to The Better Health Channel online, ‘Obesity costs Australian taxpayers an estimated $1.5 billion every year in direct health costs. Indirect health costs are harder to estimate and include work absenteeism, production lost to premature death, and the hundreds of millions of dollars that Australians spend each year on weight management programs’. So, while our lives continue to get busier and it is more usual for both parents in the family to be working outside the home, it becomes increasingly difficult to find the time to shop for, plan and prepare healthy, nutritious meals. If a tired parent gets home to find the fridge bare and is then bombarded with demands for some disgusting meal that a child has just seen advertised on the television, which said parent wasn’t able to tell the child to turn off because he/she was at work, but the meal is a) quick to prepare b) cheap and c) comes with a cute little toy, the disgusting meal suddenly becomes an attractive option to even the strongest, most sensible mum or dad. Yes, parents must accept responsibility to ensure that their children are given a healthy diet, plenty of opportunities to exercise and limited time in front of the box, but the government could share that responsibility by censoring the clearly inappropriate television food advertising that is directed at children. While Mr Abbott makes comments about Australians’ freedom of choice, I wonder how free he is to make that statement, or if, in fact, he and his colleagues are under any pressure from big businesses.

Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner School is continuing to impress and attract record enrolments. To help fulďŹ l the learning and achievement expectations of parents, the school provides an important element often missing in schools, a nurturing learning environment for students. High School teacher Peter Harris, says that our comfortable learning environment goes beyond the physical setting. ‘The school is well-known for its park-like grounds but we are also renowned for a learning atmosphere created by the quality of the relationships between teachers and students. By developing mutual respect and nurturing the whole person we allow the students to bring out the best in themselves. ‘Parents regularly tell us that they are thrilled with the difference in their child, both personally and academically, once they start coming to our school,’ he said. The school has limited vacancies for students from Kindergarten to Year 12. Interested families are invited to contact the school at any time, to make a booking for our next school tour, December 7 at 10am, or an appointment on 6684 7400 or visit www. capebyronsteiner.nsw.edu

Comment

In danger of encouraging terrorism

I

ran, an unruly state, is wrong to seek nuclear weapons and Israel, an unruly state, is right to have hoarded them unlawfully and secretly for thirty years; discuss. Syria is wrong to assassinate a former Prime Minister of Lebanon and Israel right to assassinate, each month, such Arab leaders it chooses to target including, by poison, Yasr Arafat, a Nobel Peace Prize winner; discuss. Iran is wrong to promise to ‘wipe

Israel off the map’ because it is a tyranny and the USA right to bring ‘regime change’ to Iraq because it is a tyranny; discuss. Soviet Russia was wrong to imprison and torture people who might, or might not, in the future be a danger to the State and Australia is right to lock up and torture who might, or might not, in the future be a danger to the State; discuss. Or rather don’t discuss -lest you go to gaol for

‘encouraging terrorism’ under our new laws. If you discuss it, any of it, you might come to see how Eurocentric, how Christofascist, how (yes) Judofascist these thoughts are. As the grandson of Jewess and the son of a fundamentalist deaconess and the great-great-grandson of Scottish, English, Welsh, French, Irish and Polish forebears I should be able to say with moral safety -- though of course I cannot -- how wrong it is to call a Muslim

nation unworthy of vast and powerful weaponry and a Jewish nation, and other Christian nations, worthy of it; including one Christian nation, the United States, that actually used atomic weaponry to kill two hundred thousand people in only three days in 1945. Not an ‘unruly’ nation at all. I also cannot any longer say, lest I ‘encourage terrorists’, how silly it is to suppose Iran will ever atomic bomb, or hydrogen bomb, anybody

since they know full well that Israel would atomic bomb them back. And how wrong it is to call insane, or insane in this way, anyone whose religion is different, insane enough to thus commit national suicide with nuclear weaponry. Nobody does that; discuss. The USA, not Iran, has atomic bombed people before. The USA, not Iran, has invaded sovereign nations in the Middle East before, against UN wishes, and so has Israel. The USA, not Iran, projects onto other nations its own tendencies in

imagined two hundred thousand Christians could conquer, subdue and police twenty-six million Muslims. They imagined they could wage two big wars against sovereign nations while lowering taxes. They imagined a Supreme Court judge with no previous days on any bench, and a net debt of thirty-four trillion dollars to Red China were good ideas. Surely it is time for the men in white coats to come in the door and take them away in straitjackets; discuss.

Television Guide 1. Jennifer Lopez, a rich and some say talented woman, laid an egg as a humble servant in Maid In Manhattan (NBN, Friday, 8.30pm). Renee Zellweger sizzles in Chicago (Prime, Sunday, 9pm), the movie which gave back respect to the American musical, long languishing in the grip of histrionic wankers. 3. Sophie Lee and Michael Caton star in the Australian comedy classic The Castle (NBN, Saturday, 7.30pm). Rob Sitch should shoot a sequel in which Caton goes in search of a family member disappeared by ASIO – tell them they’re dreaming! Elsewhere, SBS offers the passionate and times hilarious Australian drama La Spagnola (Sunday, 9.30pm), and ABC examines the role of the shack (Monday, 9.30pm).

Around 70 tonnes of material is recycled each week in the Shire meaning 70 tonnes less rubbish going to into landĂ€ll. Under the old one bin system nearly half of the recyclables collected were ‘contaminated’ by leaking rubbish or broken glass and could not be recycled. The new two bin system has reduced the contamination rate from 45% to just 12% says Council who are aiming to bring it down even further. ‘One of the most com-

7

mon errors residents make is to put their recyclables in plastic bags before they put them in the recycling bin. Plastic bags should not be put in the recycling bin. Items should go in the bin loose, so they can be easily sorted after collection,’ said Council’s waste expert Russell Chaplin. Lightweight crinkly plastic biscuit and chip packaging and plastic wrappers are often mistaken for recyclables and should be put in the red bin. Food, garden waste and nappies should also go in the red bin. Timber and building materials can be recycled but need to be taken separately to the Myocum tip, old toys should be donated to a charity if they still work

and electrical appliances can be taken to a second hand dealer or given away. ‘Recyclables collected by Byron Shire Council’s contractor Solo Resource Recovery are transported to the Myocum Transfer Station where they are placed into large transfer trucks. This maximises the efĂ€ciency of the transfer process and delivers the recyclables to Visy Recycling’s Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). The MRF is the largest and most technologically advanced sorting facility in Queensland. Recyclables are sorted, cleaned and baled into groups, separating the plastics, glass, paper, steel and aluminium. Once these materials are clean and sorted they are

ready to start the process again, and are sent to manufacturers to be made into new products, for example: egg cartons, cereal boxes, agricultural pipes, and new aluminium and steel cans,’ Mr Chaplin explained. Despite the improvement in recycling rates over 66% of our total waste is placed in the red rubbish bins and only a third makes its way into the yellow recycling bins. To reduce the red bin waste Council recommends starting a compost bin or worm farm, both of which can be bought at Council’s Mullumbimby ofÀces for less than $50 each. When you are shopping look for products that come in recycled packaging or better still, minimal packaging.

A & A Worm Farm Waste Systems Recycle all waste including sewage, greywater and organic garbage and re-use it as fertiliser and water for your garden. We have been in business for nine years designing, manufacturing and installing worm-based systems. The Worm Farm Waste System processes all sewerage, greywater and organic garbage including weeds, papers, cardboard, kitchen waste etc. No smell. No maintenance. No pump out. We submit your application to Council for a permit to install. Reduction to outfall is 100%. All wastewater and garbage is processed in the Worm Farm Waste System and disposed of onsite. No efuent leaves the site and ends up in our bays and waterways. The reduction to landďŹ ll once a Worm Farm Waste System has been installed would be on average at least 90%.

Mandy Nolan chats with singer/songwriter Jodi Martin about the making of her new album ‘15 minutes o ut to Sea.’

hard to coordinate the hands and feet. I am so attached to the bass pedals!’

After the success of her debut album, ‘Water and Wood’, Jodi Martin set about to create the second album, a sometimes daunting task, particularly with such hands on involvement in the production process. Produced by Acre’s Christian Pile, this album gave Jodi a chance to get more handson with the creation of her music.

‘I had someone at the show the other night who didn’t see what I did with my feet – they thought I had a backing track!’

‘It’s very much a studio sound. My previous recordings have been quite live in sound. When it came to making the decisions in the studio, I pretty much let the boys have their reign, but I was there the whole time, soaking it up – trying – I found every time I went into the studio and did a more produced thing the song would get a bit lost.’ So how does a musician balance the integrity of a song with the temptation to get very creative with the production? Like a painting, it’s important to maintain the strongest image, and not lose it in overpainting. In music production, the skills are similar. ‘It requires subtlety, you have to be aware of the different sounds you can use, like Christian uses some unconventional sounds... like playing things backwards. Like I played an out of tune piano line and he played it backwards – it actually sounded really cool, my live sound is much more the original Jodi Martin – guitars, electric, dobro, acoustic.’

THIS WEEK: BODYJAR • BORDELLO • WRIGHT BROS • DECODER RING • BACK2BACK DJS

‘Every time I play a song I play it differently, especially when I play with my drummer. I play bass pedals – they are not very commonly used. They are a bit like the pedals on an electric organ where you play it with your left foot. I used to play drums a bit, so it wasn’t too

The pedals create such a full sound that one could be forgiven for thinking Jodi was playing with electronic assistance.

The album is very much an insightful journey into Martin’s evocative songwriting which is at once raw and elegant and both melancholic and inspiring. Speaking of ‘15 Minutes Out to Sea’, Jodi comments: ‘It’s weird, because there’s a lot of variey, but they all tie together with my voice and the genereal production sound. One song has a bit of a Bo Didley sound, and one is more straight ahead rock with the guys from Acre – and then there’s some folky ones just with the guitar. We actually worked with a guy called Rob Walsh from Bellingen, another producer, and he has a band called Amphibian for a more electronica, ambient feel, so there’s a couple of tracks that have that leaning as well. A couple of times on a couple of tracks, I handed it over completely and I said that’s so not right for me, and they respected that – sometimes.’ ‘I really like the title track, it’s just how I wanted it to sound and there’s also a track at the end that used to be a reggae song and we recorded that at the last minute. We were sitting at the kitchen table and I played the song and Christian said we have to do it right now, and Rob said, imagine that you are a housewife and you have just put the kids to bed, and you have to whisper. They turned the microphones up really loud and you could even hear crickets. It sounds really spooky, very emotional. It feels pretty special.’ Jodi Martin plays the Byron Community Centre on Thursday.

You’d have to be living with your head in an esky not to have heard about the Byron celeb street bashing. Rex had barely got himself off the pavement, when Ray Martin and the Current Affair team suddenly appeared, in fact, it’s rumoured that Ray saw the whole thing, and some are even intimating that he may have instigated it to swing a cheap deal at Watego’s this summer. (Ray was seen earlier riding a skateboard through Jonson Street and later in Ballina where he was reporting on gangs of marauding old people on scooters out of their trees on blood pressure tablets). But Rex Hunt bashed on an evening stroll? The country was shocked. Harry M Miller faxed through a ďŹ lm offer ‘Good Rex Hunting’, a tourist town reworking of the redemption themes of The Fisher

King and The Cinderella Man. They’re even thinking of getting Russell Crowe to try and give the script a bit more punch. Newspapers scrabbled for a ďŹ shy lead. According to Mr Hunt, we are now a more dangerous destination than Bali. I suppose one could be accused of getting the words terrorism and tourism confused, and who knows, with the kind of press we’ve been getting we could foster a whole new industry. We could open B&B&B’s. Bed and Breakfast and Bashings. We’re a peaceful people. We don’t condone violence. But wake up Rex, violence isn’t restricted to Byron – it could have happened in any regional town in Australia, or any city for that matter. Perhaps one wouldn’t be accosted by youths whilst strolling in dear old Double Bay (but you may be mortally offended by a barrage of beige), but Blacktown, Penrith, Punchbowl, Lakemba, Lismore, Casino, Surfer’s Paradise... take a group of adolescent males and just

Longevity. Not a word that can be aligned with many bands, but one that can certainly be applied to Aussie punk legends, Bodyjar. For over a decade the band has consolidated their local and international following with relentless touring and high energy shows. After coming to the end of a 3 album deal with EMI, Bodyjar have gone their own way, re-conďŹ gured the band and forged a whole new creative path with their latest independently produced self titled album. Speaking of the split from

EMI, Cam went on to say: ‘We just didn’t want it to hold us back from getting a new album out. For about a year we just belted out the songs. We had a new drummer, a new album and new songs, and a new label and a new manager, it was a new start, we got to get rid of all the things we didn’t like.’ For most bands, after years of slogging away on the circuit and getting some major runs on the board, when the crunch hits, it’s often easier to pack up your playlist and head off home. But not for Bodyjar. ‘There was a little thought of disbanding and we talked about what we wanted to do. I was keen and Ross, our

add alcohol, and you have the potential for violence. As a resident of this vibrant, extraordinary community I am deeply offended by some of the public reaction which includes a letter published in the Telegraph which states: ‘For decades now, the Byron Bay area has been a haven for city dropouts who have spawned a generation of brain-dead drop kicks.’ Unlike metropolitan areas which just seem to breed middle-class selfrighteous

ex drummer was still a good friend of the band, so he helped us ďŹ nd a new drummer. It’s hard to sack people, but you’ve got to do it sometimes in a band, because it’s your life.’ For Bodyjar, discovering they could take on most of the management role, freed them economically. ‘Managers take 20% of all advances on anything that comes in and it ends up being about 50% of the net. You then have to split what’s left between 4 people!’ According to Cam, the new album is more of a Rock record. ‘We have more of a metal/ hardcore feel. We have the ďŹ rst single, Lights Out, doing really well. It’s been number one on the Net 50

bigots. It seems hippy bashing is socially sanctioned. We are a fragile community, struggling to maintain our identity and social infrastructure in the face of a massive tourist market that often has little regard for the people who live here. Tourists are always welcome here, but it should be remembered: This may be where You have a holiday, but this is where We live. And by the way, so long and thanks for the Fish.

for 8 weeks – and as soon as we put out the new album the back catalogue started moving! Last week when I interviewed Andrew Darling from Fatter than Nusrat he suggested that the crucial song on any album was track 3. An interesting prospect. I put it to Cameron, who’d never really thought that before, but after a moment or two, concurred enthusiastically. ‘Track order is a huge component of how you put an album together. You have to imagine the end of one song going into the beginning of another. Track three on the album is Alarms, which I reckon is the best song on the album...’ Bodyjar are joined by Transport when they play the Byron Youth and Activity Centre on Saturday.

After a witness relocation program took Bordello from Perth to Melbourne in 2002, the band got straight to work building up their East Coast fan base. After several return trips to keep their legions of West Aussie fans satisďŹ ed and literally hundreds of shows in front of thousands of East Coasters, Bordello hibernated to reinvent their sound, rewrite their setlist, record a new EP and prepare an explosion onto the national circuit. Earlier this year a packed out Esplanade Hotel in St Kilda went nuts on their ofďŹ cial return to performing live and reinforced Bordello’s signiďŹ cance in the local scene. They’re funky, fresh, edgy and original and at the Beach Hotel on Saturday.

ii THE EARLE BIRD Steve Earle and The Dukes are set to tour nationally, hot on the heels of this current album of vehement cow punk anthems and ballads, The Revolution Starts... Now. His contribution to the merging of progressive country to the wider rock audience is huge and there’s every reason to believe that the entire genre of ‘alternative country’ would not exist without Earle’s groundbreaking extensin of what used to be called folk rock. From the man who brought you Copperhead Road, his latest album is an impassioned call for people to join the singer in rallying for the social democratic rights he and they believe in. As he says: ‘The war will go on, outsourcing of our jobs will continue and a third of our citizens will have no health care coverage whatsoever.’ I don’t know about you, but I am deďŹ nitely up for a bit of dominant paradigm subversion. Steve Earle and the Dukes play the Hotel Great Northern on Friday 18 November.

Certified Neurotherapist Claire Hay uses biofeedback technology that trains the brain to produce healthier, more stable brain patterns. The brain is in control of the whole body and poor functioning can be the cause of many symptoms.

She also assesses dietary intake and lifestyle to formulate specific nutritional and exercise programs. Tracey is a registered Naturopath, graduating from South Cross University and has been training and practising in the field of Metaphysical and Remedial massage for ten years.

Claire puts sensors on your head which listens to your EEG and computer games show you exactly what the brain is doing. On a conscious level you want to win the game and your subconscious figures out how it will win and goes ahead playing until it can produce the optimal brain activity all the time.

LIVEMUSIC ii LOTS MORE AFFECTION Sensational sister-act, Scarlett Affection (Nerida and Melia) are back by overwhelming demand at the Ewingsdale Hall this week. They are joined by big-voiced Nimbin songsmith Martin Preedy and friends. Also from Nimbin, Doug and Biscuit bring their original and different style of home-grown guitar and vocal mix to the Byron Vista Social Club. Local singer/songwriter Lou Bradley comes fresh from her ‘Mullum to Darwin’ tour. She was the winner of the ABC’s ‘Live in Your Loungeroom’ and ‘The Road to Tamworth’, and runner-up in the Australian Songwriters Association’s song of the year contest. Lou will play and sing a handful of her songs accompanied by her partner Phil. Rebecca Ireland, extremely popular regular performer is back with more of her wonderful music, as well as making her debut appearance with the newly-revamped Vista Sista’s, who of course include house crew members Shanto and Gabi Bliss, who also do their own solo thing and some songs with compere and songman Mook. Sunday at 7.30pm. $10.

ii HARTLEY TO LEAVE After many years of performing and politicking in Byron Boneyard’s lead vocalist and social orator, Matt Harley is outta here. He’s packing up and trucking off to Melbourne. I had one of our last delightful chats. ‘This is the last time, I’m leaving. We’re playing at the Rails on Friday – this will be your last chance to see Boneyard – and coincidentally Jez is moving to Melbourne as well. We’ll never have another conversation for years, the good times have ceased to roll, but we’d like to thank the people who’ve come to see us over the years.’ So what should you expect at the gig? ‘The best of Boneyard – with a little

And they can do it as often as they like now.’ So what do you think about trying to get the box trifecta on the bill on Cup Day? ‘Face it, anyone who wants to keep something secret from you, doesn’t want you to see what they are doing- no honest person would do such a thing. One of the things I hope to do in Melbourne is hook into the Labor party there and see if I can get some action going. I personally believe that John Howard has exceeded himself and the turning point was when the clerk of the senate said: the government’s

COMEDYEVENTS ii COMEDY: SEINFIELD COMEDIAN AT BOWLO! US Stand Up Comedian Eddie Ifft has performed with the big guns of gags, Robin Williams and Chris Rock, and is coming to the Byron Bowling Club for one show only on his latest Australian tour. Eddie Ifft always knew that his antics in school would pay off someday. After being expelled from grade school, junior high, high school and college, Eddie somehow graduated with a degree in Political Science from the University of Pittsburgh. After a brief stint in politics interning for a Senator in Washington DC, Eddie quickly realized that politics was way too serious for him. He moved back home to Pittsburgh and took a job working at

his father’s insurance firm, until one random night when he gave stand-up comedy a try at an open-mike night at a Pittsburgh comedy club. Once the spotlight was on him, he knew that was the place for him. The next day he resigned from the insurance firm (although his father claims he was fired). Eddie packed his bags and moved off to New York City to pursue a career in comedy. He bounced around doing odd-jobs by day and stand-up at night until one night when he won an Off-Broadway stand-up competition that suddenly saw him appearing regularly at comedy clubs and colleges throughout the country, leading to appearances on Comedy Central’s Premium Blend and NBC’s Late Friday Night. While performing his

What was to be to the official EP release tour for The Black Stars has now been re-dubbed the official ‘pre-release tour’ after a couple of setbacks in the production line throwing the release date to February 2006. But don’t despair, there will be still plenty to celebrate as Kate Bradley is actually smack in the middle of her own EP release shows and KillTV are hot off the back of playing the Brisbane leg of the massive Taste Of Chaos tour. Expect to cop a sensory overload on the night, ranging from Kate Bradley’s hauntingly beautiful, heartfelt melodies to the hard hitting rock solid sounds of KillTV and The Black Stars.

And of course, if anyone can figure out how to keep Matt Seaberg off the stage as host please forward your suggestion to Australian National Security Dept.

stand-up at night, Eddie honed his acting and hosting skills during the day. Luck was on his side; he booked his first audition as the host of

campaigns, including a full season as the ABC College Football Guy. His quick wit and personality led to a job as the ‘man-on-the-street’ on

ii LATIN LOVING Picture this: you’re feeling the magnificent rhythms of Latin American Music. The breezes are blowing softly, and you’re surrounded by happy people who just want to dance. You feel like you could easily be somewhere exotic like the Bahamas or Puerto Rico as the smell of night jasmine fills your senses. Latin dancing has taken off around Australia in a big way, it’s a beautiful way to bring back the romance in your life with your partner, or just get to meet new inspired people and have fun. There is something to be said for people who know how to dance. It’s a timeless thing – which will never go out of fashion. Latin American band Latin Fire are QLD’s top latin band and they will be playing up a storm this Saturday night at Durrumbul Hall. Music that makes you remind you why Spanish is the loving tongue. Doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to dance salsa yet, a few lessons with a good instructor are all that is needed to give you the basics, and be assured that once you start, you won’t want to stop! Starts 8pm, food and drink available, and ladies, feel free to wear a flower in your hair. $10 entry.

ii ALL WRIGHT NOW Since exploding onto the Byron scene early last year The Wright Brothers have made quite an impression on the local punters. Plans are on the way for The Wright Brothers and the Brothers From Others Mothers to join brotherly forces for the Totally Wicked Tour. They head off early next year with local surf film maker Darius Devas and The Sound King, Adam Pippen. See what the boys are made of (slugs and snails and Byron based tales) at the Rails on Sunday.

popular WNEW. Recently, Eddie was featured on a number of episodes of VH1’s new show “Never Mind the Buzzcocks, and can be seen in Jerry Seinfeld’s up-coming documentary film, ‘Comedian’. Also, this summer Eddie toured Europe performing to rave reviews. His CD entitled ‘I Learned the Hard Way’ was released in November and his website eddieifft.com was launched early this year and has had well over 100,000 hits to date. Comedy Central has chosen Eddie to host a pilot for the network entitled ‘Strap-On.’ Eddie Ifft appears with fellow New Yorker, Robert Grayson as support and Mandy Nolan, the mouthy mother of mayhem, as MC. This night of world class comedy in intimate surrounds should not be missed! Byron Bowling Club, Monday 21 November, 8pm. Tix are $15/20 and can be booked on 6685 4045.

BEXSTAR NIGHTS Good news for the Byron dancescene: c-moog’s no-longer going to be turned into a piano bar! The (really really) bad news: it could become a fast-food restaurant.

THURSDAY i Electro-rock and hypnotic beats with Decoder Ring’s live soundscapes at the Great Northern. The Sydney six-piece return to Byron Bay for the launch of their third album Fractions (see interview).

FRIDAY i Base Productions brings together five Byron DJs with new local performance group Shadowed Productions for Back to Back at the Great Northern. Nick Taylor, Scoota, Jackie Onassid, Sarah Tonin and Ruff Dimond spin an eclectic mix of dance beats from breaks and tech-house to electro clash and tough disco.

SATURDAY i At the Buddha Bar Raz Bin adds his dub vocals to the live roots, rough ragga and chunky reggae sound of the Raz Bin Sam band. Also on the terrace before Dave Gravy’s DJ set is a live set from the Lion I Band. At Cocos Scoota is back in the upstairs lounge bar and downstairs DJs Gaz and Baby G do the main dancefloor. LiveWire duo Giv and Timcah spin electro-tech house at La La Land and Elsewhere has a special event CD launch. Melbourne’s Velure present tracks from Care for Fading Embers and Brisbane’s D-KO front up for support. Later DJs Ben Abrahams and Matt Crawford take the dancefloor sideways with twisted acid-house till 5am. Nick Taylor, Slinky, Jackie Onassid and Wallapalooza head south to Bellingen to join Noodles (now based in Sydney) for the infamous annual Castle Party.

DECODER RING i First, which of you is replying or is the interview a collaboration? Decoder Ring answers are always collaborative – we speak as one ... The latest tour is to promote the new album Fractions, as it’s a concept album rather than a collections of singles, how will the live show reflect or expand on the album concept? The live show takes you from human nature at its most pure to a point of folly and downfall and then through loss and redemption to celebration to coming back on top! You’ll see your own life pass before you eyes...

seems you’ve lost the rock edge for a more expansive sound? Wrong – we’ve gained the rock edge, but we’ve gained all the other edges as well... We dumbed down, smartened up and got our rock back. It’s the same emotional poignancy as Somersault but with more electro bits and rock bits that make it heaps

better. Everyone thinks so – even Cate Shortland.

The other day my 6 year old piped up and asked a very pertinent question. Why aren’t there any Australian shows on TV Mum? They just have ones in America with big houses. Aren’t our houses big enough here?’ The saturation of American culture is evident when you have bunches of small kiddies who can emulate American accents with perfection. It’s spooky. Why don’t we have home grown product? And when we do, why does it get lynched so early in the game. Mungo MacCallum and Mick O’Regan engage in a conversation about the ABC at the Billinudgel on Sunday.

ii WORKSHOPS: DIGITAL DELIGHTS

Tex, Don and Charlie, a truly great gig at the Byron Community Centre last Wednesday and Thursday. An awesome lineup that included Mick Harvey on drums and everyone on attitude. It was like Jack Palance the musical. The music was superb – I would even go so far as to call it Man music. Emotional, reserved, clever and unrestrained all at the same time. The highlight for me was Tex’s Edith Piaf inspired number which had him serenading the audience on bended knee, ironically delivering the encore they had paid for. An intimate, moving, dark emotional dirge. Sorry, you missed out. But tell your friends, they’re touring nationally now.

planning a new look New Year’s Eve, to reclaim the town for everyone from toddlers to 90 year olds. But of course, this won’t happen without you! The theme for this year’s parade is Peace and The Environment and will feature Arakwal representatives and the Peace Whale leading the procession. The parade will focus on the people of our community, their abilities and the creativity put into their costumes. We want to see and celebrate what all

community groups and proactive energetic people are asked to come together and be part of the NYE Parade! If you are not already in a group or are struggling for ideas or creative space, workshops are happening at the Youth and Activity Centre. With over $2000 cash and prizes available, it’s gonna be a win win situation for everyone! For information on the procession, contact Debra Turner, Event Coordinator on 6685 3365.

Decoder Ring at the Great Northern,Thursday

Max Ferguson was kept in the dark for over 20 years. Even though he had earned himself a reputation as a master printer in London’s top reprographic studios it was only a chance meeting with Adobe pioneer, Russell Brown in 1992 that saw his emergence from the darkroom into the digital world. Back then the technology was raw (Adobe had just released Photoshop Version 2) and computers were slow and clunky but Ferguson was already planning a defection to digital. He transferred his skills from the darkroom to computer and maintained that both the traditionalist photographer and digital artist create pictures painted with light. Max Ferguson will be tutoring 4 sessions of Advanced Creative Photoshop at Mother Art – Giclee Galley, Chemical Free Printery and Digital Photographic & Design Studio.Tuesday nights 6.30pm. Bookings essential: Please phone 6685 5477

It will also encourage participants to seek collaborative opportunities with other practitioners. Filmmaker Cathy Henkel will facilitate the workshop.

Yes - I met my friends there and I smelt kerosene so I decided to hang around and then I saw them burn things... I think it was the big lips. I felt tipi love... The rest is blurry...

ii YOGA: YOGA FESTIVAL The Yoga Festival is on again this year. This is one of the major fundraisers for the Buttery and includes yoga displays, workshops, intensives, art exhibitions, talks and general great vibes! Pencil in Saturday at the Yoga Centre in Belongil for one bendy weekend.

ii THEATRE: GETTING THE GIST Lismore TAFE Theatre Students have lovingly crafted their end of year show, called GIST. GIST (Gender-IdentitySpace-Time) explores the many aspects of gender and identity in a spectacular show which includes comedy, drama, music and video and multimedia. This is a piece of very energetic, unusual and entertaining theatre featuring Dame Edna holding forth on her latest cause. Evening shows on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the 16, 17 and 18 November and a matinee on the 17 November. Evening shows start at 7pm and the matinee starts at 12 noon.

hooked in on Dan Browne’s Da Vinci Code then you’ve probably opened the small door to some very big questions. Why not find out some answers from a real academic! Dr Kate Challis, who has spent more than 10 years researching the subject presents a series of lectures, and will be appearing in Byron at the Community Centre on Wednesday 23 November. Be there or be square!

ii FLAMENCO: LUST IN THE DUST It’s one of the sexiest dances on earth, which is probably why I am so damn shit at it. Flamenco! Dark, brooding and stampy – it’s the ultimate pre menstrual tantrum. The Flamenco Crew are a group of musicans and dancers who present a contemporary raw and sexy performance with cheek excitement and honest virtuoso. They perform at the Byron Community Centre on Friday and Saturday.

ELIZABETHTOWN Watching some movies is like banging your head against a brick wall – it’s great when it stops. And some movies don’t stop when you expect them to. Just when the credits might ďŹ nally roll over the shambles of this one, Director Cameron Crowe cranks up another ďŹ fteen minutes of indulgent, superuous travelogue with a soundtrack that is meant to be a testament of solid gold but is really a Barry Crocker. As the son whose father has karked it in distant Kentucky, Orlando Bloom proves that you can only go so far with dreamy brown eyes and a wan smile. His gal, Kirstin Dunst, though not as pretty, manages to insert some vitality into a at and somnolent script. The friends and relatives of the deceased are the usual passing parade of clowns and dullards, while Alec Baldwin gets a brief lookin that leaves you longing for more of his sweaty vulgarity. As the mother, Susan Sarandon delivers a eulogy that ploughs unrecorded depths of squirm, including the lines ‘it often takes a long time to extract joy from life.’ Perhaps Crowe was pulling on it too hard.

/1 - 9-ĂŠ ĂŠ/ 8ĂŠfÇ°xä

A good courtroom drama is a rare treat and this one is from the top shelf. A priest (Tom Wilkinson) is charged with contributing to the death of the young girl on whom he attempted an exorcism. But on trial is religion, in much the same way as it was in Stanley Kramer’s classic Inherit the Wind (1960). The battle there was between Creationism and Darwinism, here the question is whether or not a person can be possessed by ‘the Devil,’ and, if so, can it be proved? Based on actual events in Germany, the story has been relocated to the US mid-west, with a gabled gothic home on an empty prairie and a cold, cloistered-looking provincial courthouse. The defence attorney (Laura Linney) speaks for the believer, but Director Scott Derrickson’s presentation of the arguments is dispassionate without being detached. Interspersed with ashbacks that would support either side, credibility is never stretched and the result is discomďŹ ting for the pragmatic and inconclusive for the pious. Provocative and tense, and if the supernatural elements don’t give you the heebie jeebies, the girl’s frightful resemblance to Geraldine Doogue surely will. John Campbell.

MAD HOT BALLROOM Mad Hot Ballroom from Director Marilyn Agrelo, is a tremendously entertaining documentary on ďŹ fth-graders from New York public schools (representing a full range of family income levels) who learn all the right moves during a ten-week after-school program in ballroom dancing. What begins as precious and cute turns into something that swings and inspires. From Washington Heights to Bensonhurst, 68 public schools teach kids how to swing, fox trot, tango and more. With each new dance, they learn about the culture that spawned it - and as they learn the music, steps and appropriate dance-oor attitude, they receive an education so full of possibilities it makes the heart sing. Director Marilyn Agrelo followed students from a few of these schools right up through a citywide competition where some of them are truly good and others make up for a lack of virtuosity with passion and a newfound sense of self. Listening to the kids talk is a treat in itself, but watching them strut their stuff in the ďŹ nal competition is enough to make you stand up and cheer.

This week feels somewhat like Bob Dylan’s song where You can’t believe you’ve come this far to end up in the place you are, And you’re still just across the borderline‌ A breaking week of breaking rules, breaking habits, breakups, breakdowns and breakthroughs‌

GEMINI: You’re used to things moving at a brisk clip, and adept at dealing with obstacles, snags and delays. If this week feels like somebody’s pressed the sabotage button on your every plan, then that’s your cue to stand still, do nothing and wait for some new information. CANCER: This week is in emotional overdrive, never comfortable for Cancerians. Bad mood people will be out and about looking for someone to blame, so be quick to step out of the line of fire. And equally quick to stop yourself playing the blame game as well. LEO: No need to feel diminished if your grand plans don’t exactly come off this week. In the words of Mother Teresa: if you can’t manage to do something big, do something small with big love. And if anyone can transform humble into wonderful, your Majesties can.

ARIES: Impulsive Aries often throw themselves wholeheartedly into the moment and end up learning from the wisdom of hindsight. Before getting caught up in this week’s excitement, access that calm, thoughtful state of mind where you make the right choices before you act.

VIRGO: If this week’s energy activates your obsessive side, by all means get those powers of concentration pumping to finish the job. But rushing and hurrying, fretting and worrying will take you away from what you want. Slow down and let it catch up with you. Don’t get ahead of yourself.

TAURUS: Keep remembering during this intense week that others have a reason for behaving the way they do – much like yourself. As Christian mystic Thomas Merton observes, if we could all see ourselves as we really are, we would all fall down and worship each other‌

LIBRA: Though spring’s a time for splashing out, this week definitely favours conserving rather than splurging. Finding creative ways to economise, to be more efficient with what you have. Are there any hidden assets or resources you’ve perhaps ignored or forgotten about?

SCORPIO: Scorpios are big brooders – but a war waged too long between your inner and outer selves will eventually have you exploding like a car bomb. Too messy. So express your feelings this week – ask for what you need. And be grateful for what you get. SAGITTARIUS: In the way grubs don’t resemble the butterflies they become, this week may seem solid and stuck. But like the second and minute hands of a clock, small progressive changes are happening, ticking along hour by hour, little by little‌ CAPRICORN: Time to lighten up, Caps – to be less dense and more transparent, so others can appreciate your real brilliance. Don’t take anything for granted this week. Thank people for every act of kindness – a gift they didn’t have to give. And your expression of gratitude’s a gift in return. AQUARIUS: Aquarians are complex creatures, but during this intense week it’s best to stick with simple. Just because something’s uncomplicated doesn’t mean it isn’t valuable or have meaning. Simple things can be profound, deep and far reaching. PISCES: The present tremendous mass exodus of souls from the planet affects us all. This week’s Scorpio vibes are psychic, sexy and intense, so use your compassionate understanding to assist someone who’s grieving. Then make sure to get some joyous, life-affirming body contact‌

‘Dialing O on the pink telephone,’ said Abbotsleigh in a puzzled voice. ‘Whatever can it mean, Bitemark?’ He handed me a slim volume which, he said, a young lass had mistakenly left in a nightclub he had visited for the purposes of cocktail research. ‘Ah,’ I said, ipping through the pages. ‘I believe it is an instruction manual on the art of talking to the canoe driver.’ ‘What on earth are you on about, man?’ said Abbotsleigh, more puzzled than ever. ‘Ah,’ said Tosser Digby, ‘it is a rich mine for metaphors. My niece Lavinia, who plays for the home team as it were, has advised me there is also dining at the Y, growling at the badger, and whistling in the weeds, among many others.’ ‘Dash it, will you chaps please tell me what this book is about!’ exclaimed a frustrated Abbotsleigh. ‘Well, dear chap,’ I replied, ‘it’s a DIY opus on arousing what the Kama Sutra might call the archway of the love-god’s dwelling or what your mother, bless her lavender sachets, would describe as a lady’s “down thereâ€?.’ Abbotsleigh blushed the excited hue of a pink telephone. ‘Oh my goodness. Who would’ve thought such an activity would have a whole volume devoted to it! I never guessed that such a degree of skill was called for...’ ‘The world has moved on since you learnt to make a trowel in woodwork in the Upper Fourth,’ interposed Digby. ‘The modern miss, I am told, expects nothing less than silver service, and many a chap is found wanting, if not lost in the woods, as it were.’ ‘But when I was at Eton,’ whimpered Abottsleigh, ‘Mr Fossington-Dewlap gave us a detailed overview of the, ahem, act of procreation.’ ‘That, my dear Abbotsleigh,’ I said, ‘is like sitting on the blueprint of a plane and expecting to y.’ ‘A blueprint lacking in several important details, I would wager,’ said Digby. ‘Most notably the joystick.’

‘If I might offer a suggestion,’ said Sanders the butler with a discreet cough, ‘Sir might care to consult Miss Lizzy [Bizzy Lizzy, the club’s dominatrix-on-call], who I am sure would be able to offer Sir some stern instruction on the subject matter.’ By this stage, gentle reader, other club members were harrumphing annoyedly. A gentleman’s club, after all, is dedicated to oral stimulation of a different kind, namely gustatorial. It was therefore timely that the valets entered at that moment with a pleasurable spread of clams in white sauce, split ďŹ gs, pearl oysters and quivering mango pulp in a perturbation of gelati. This was accompanied by a refreshing Rosebank Crura Pinot Noir with just a hint of muskiness on the tongue. There was general distaste for discussing the topic of worshipping the many-petalled temple of roseate delight, so we left it alone. Later on in the day, however, after cigars. port and naps, I observed a few of the more unreconstructed members surreptitiously dipping into the pages of Abbotsleigh’s manual, which he had left upon a Louis XIV side table. Perhaps you can indeed teach old dogs new tricks, at least when it comes to enjoying a box lunch.

The glory of a slow Sunday

Mullumbimby

Vi c t o r i a C o s f o rd Head south some moist Sunday when the beach does not beckon: be in no hurry. The day sprawls ahead, planless. No need to even pack picnics. A classical music station through the car speakers and your favourite person beside you. Twist right at Newrybar but instead of Harvest for lunch you will harvest your own lunch from the roadside stalls. Right, then left, and with the village behind you curve through countryside so lush you catch your breath. Farms, homesteads, tumbledown cottages tumbling down dipping driveways appear like illustrations from children’s stories. The dogged patient face of the cow whose calf suckles exuberantly; an old man whose secateurs snip snap across a manicured hedgerow; a belt of silver pecan trees in slender graceful ranks. Sudden glimpses of glassy water from inland lakes – the utter greenness of growth – rich red soil and a promenade of bamboo. Stop the car for several minutes to listen to the creak the bamboo makes as it moves in the morning breeze: a private sound as lonely as an empty rocking chair. The signs begin. ‘Organic avocados’ whitepainted on cardboard and a box spilling forth the nubbly fruit. Next up, ‘Organic lettuces’ which look like vast bouquets, leaves tight-furled, frilly-hearted, squeaky with newness, two of them to ďŹ ll the legspace in the back seat, like well-behaved children. The beginnings of a salad, then.

Coffee plantations to your left and macadamias to your right inspire the next cheesecake to bake... but you are winding past. Early stone fruits evident in the signs for nectarines and peaches; blueberries and bananas further along. Little pots of thyme and rosemary-for-remembrance unable to be resisted, coins dropped in to the metal mouth of a money tin. And then the only vehicle in the carpark means you have the waterfall to yourselves and can observe the turtles from your spots dangerously close to the edge. Rain like the lightest ďŹ ngertips, a feast of fruit and salad, a poised and potent moment of timelessness almost poignant. Timelessness another Sunday when the beach does beckon, when there is nowhere else to sensibly be. Dust pursuing the car down the unsealed road to North Head where for all the awlessness of the day you are again the only ďŹ gures in a landscape. The sea, ďŹ rst, for navigating waves, and then the river to oat and to share with dolphins and pelicans. The only thing left to do, then, is the short drive up to the Country Club where over simply grilled ďŹ sh you have the entire theatre of the ocean before you, with whales and whales. The couple smiling at you from another table are unable to prevent their happiness spilling, or perhaps they are smiling at yours.

If you want to learn how to manage your compost without fuss and without smell enrol now in the ACE course, Easy home composting and waste reduction in the home, scheduled for Friday November 18, 10am to 3pm in Mullumbimby. The course teaches practical and simple steps to turn kitchen and garden waste into a valuable garden

fertiliser. A site visit will be included for interested participants to showcase a local household with two composting toilets, as well as composting systems for kitchen and garden waste. The long running course,

which is again being hosted by local resident and member of Council’s Solid Waste Committee Gayle Russell, shows that reducing waste is a simple yet effective way of helping our environment. ‘Composting helps by

keeping organic matter (our kitchen and garden waste) out of landÀll. Gardens will beneÀt too! Let’s put back what we take from our soil,’ Ms Russell said. One lucky course participant will win a compost bin kindly donated by Byron Shire Council who support these initiatives. Phone ACE now on 6684 3374 to enrol.

2 The Byron Baby Shop In business for twelve years now, the Byron Baby Shop has an enormous range of secondhand baby goods and equipment. Owners Jo and Kim also stock new items, but stress that everything they sell is in the best condition because of only being used for a short amount of time.

ver the past decade, Australia’s recycling performance has been a mixture of the good, the bad and the ugly. That’s the conclusion of a new Planet Ark report compiled for the 10th anniversary of national Recycling Week, November 7 to 13. The report analysed recycling statistics and municipal waste Ă€gures over the past ten years and found recycling rates overall are increasing but too much material is still ending up in landĂ€ll. In some areas our recycling results are shockingly poor. ‘Over the past decade, there have been some very good results,’ says Planet Ark founder Jon Dee. ‘Newspaper recycling has gone up from 52.7% in 1995 to 74.5% today and we’re now recycling almost two billion newspapers a year. ‘We’re also recycling 600 million more aluminium cans today than we were ten years ago, 2.3 billion cans are now being recycled every year and each can that gets recycled will save enough energy

to power a TV set for three hours.’ New Roy Morgan research commissioned for the report shows that 42% of Australians now compost or use worm farms to recycle their food and green waste. While it’s encouraging to see good recycling activities, there is also the bad – talk rather than action. On the bad side, only 11% of Australia’s ofĂ€ce paper is being recycled. Nearly nine out of every ten sheets of ofĂ€ce paper are being thrown away despite the fact that 68% of Australians told Roy Morgan that they want to recycle more paper at the ofĂ€ce. Too few mobile phones are being recycled and 18 million printer cartridges are being thrown into landĂ€ll every year. This is a huge waste. However, 9000 businesses and 2000 retail outlets have recently recycled 1.5 million printer cartridges via Cartridges 4 Planet Ark. ‘Forty-eight percent of Australians told Roy Morgan they are confused about what can and can’t be recycled,’ said

Dee. ‘As a result, rubbish like drinking glasses and plastic bags are wrongly being put into our recycling bins causing real problems for recycling companies.’ The report also showed the ugly side of Australian society. Though we’re recycling more, each Australian is still responsible for generating 2.25kg of waste every day. ‘We’ve come a long way with recycling in the past decade, back in 1995 toilet tissue made from recycled paper was poor quality and didn’t work well for consumers. Today, 8000 tonnes of ofĂ€ce paper waste is turned into ‘safe’ toilet tissue every year and the softness and strength of recycled toilet tissue has improved considerably. ‘Each of us can do a lot more to recycle better and waste less. It’s a moral responsibility that we owe to our kids as well as to future generations of Australians.’ For localised recycling into in your area, go to www.recyclingnearyou.com.au.

DR ROBERT CROCKER Unfortunately, due to my significant hearing loss I am no longer able to continue to work as a GP. Regretfully my practice is now closed. I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause my patients. If you have any new or ongoing medical conditions I strongly suggest you seek the services of another GP. If you wish, I can send a summary of your medical records to you or another Doctor. Phone 66857222. Best wishes for your attendance over the years.

Byron’s successful surf ski team Byron Bay’s surf ski team followed up last year’s impressive season with some outstanding results at the first Queensland Super Series carnival held at North Burleigh last weekend. On Saturday the current national title and dual state title holding U/19 ski relay team of Pat Norton, Kane Battese and Eddie Killingbeck, comfortably won their first carnival of the season. Battese and Killingbeck then won the U/19 double ski,

and Norton combined with Ben Lawrence to pick up second place in the same event. On Sunday Battese made it a three golds, when he took out the U/19 single ski by the narrowest of margins over Norton. In the U/17 single ski, Lawrence had a comfortable lead snatched away on the line to come in second. Kurt Tutt had an outstanding paddle to grab third place in the open single ski. He looks to be in great form and

will threaten for medals at all the major carnivals. Tutt will be aiming to improve on his silver medal at the 2004 world championships in Italy when he goes to Melbourne in February for the 2006 world titles. The Byron team will split this weekend, with some going to Mooloolaba for the Men’s Health Ocean ski series race and others heading down to Yamba for the local Far North Coast Carnival.

Danny Wills wiped out by wildcard

After a long wait for swell to arrive to the Brazilian coastline, competitors in the last four heats of round one of the Nova Schin Festival were sent out in fairly small conditions to begin with, but as the tide filled in the waves quickly rose to meet the occasion. Local surfers provided all the upsets, ousting some of the big names of the competition, including Byron Bay’s Danny Wills (pictured), who was eliminated in round two by Brazilian wildcard Flavio

Costa. Fellow Australian and current world number five Trent Munro also fell victim to the local talent, eliminated in round two by Guilherme Ferreira. Coolangatta Kid Mick Fanning, meanwhile, was very focused and spent most of the leadup to his heat zoning in. ‘It was a really slow start and we sat there for almost 12 minutes waiting for a wave,’ said Fanning. ‘I didn’t get any really big scores but

they did the job and were enough to get me through.’ He was very wary of the local wildcards and acknowledged that on their home turf they can’t be underestimated. ‘You just never know with the wildcards,’ said Fanning. ‘They have nothing to lose and the whole crowd really gets behind them. Every time they get a wave the crowd roars.’ The race for the world title will resume when Irons and Slater take to the waves in round three, weather permitting.

Lennox delivers stinging attack Bangalow U14s were put to the sword by a well drilled and determined Lennox Head team last weekend. Already 33 ahead of the Stingers, Bangalow had seven wickets in hand and only needed another 60 runs to put the game beyond doubt. Bowling a great line and length and backed up by sensational work in the field, the Lennox attack had Ban-

galow in trouble early when Alex Cram, Mathew Lodge and Isaac Brown where dismissed in five overs. Things didn’t get any better when Jacob Peck and the Tobster were brilliantly caught in consecutive overs. Despite some hard nosed defence by Bangalow’s Ryder Court, the end came quickly, leaving last week’s star Seb Watsford stranded on 49 not out. Need-

ing 70 runs in 25 overs, Lennox’s chase started badly when Cram picked up two wickets in two overs. When Mathew Lodge, Lachlan Stubbings and Richard East took a wicket apiece, the pressure was well and truly on Lennox, however a series of dropped catches opened the door for the Stingers, who claimed victory with six overs in hand.

Big wins for little athletes Mullumbimby Little Athletics is going from strength to strength, producing some outstanding young athletes and picking up medals left, right and centre. Five athletes competed in the senior carnival in Brisbane recently, which attracts competitors from all over Queensland and is a warm up for the state titles.

Zali Fung scooped the pool winning all four of her events: 100m, 200m, long jump and triple jump. She scored a personal best in both her jumps: 5.18m in the long jump and 10.13m in the triple jump. Zali is currently in training for school nationals where she will represent NSW. Other young athletes who took part in the carnival

were Emily Riches, Julia Riches, Deanna Thompson and Nikki Thomas who all performed extremetly well. Congratulations to Craig Ensor, who took part in the NSW PSSA state championships in Sydney last week where he finished third in the 12yrs 800m final in a time of 2 minutes and 22 seconds. Well done Craig.

Sports Roundup with Alex McAuley Leisa is the goal wizard of Oz

Leisa Arthur is delighted to have been selected to represent Australia in the over 35 womens’ hockey team to play New Zealand in the Trans Tasman Cup next year. Photo Jeff ‘What the Puck’ Dawson

Who would have thought that a bit of carelessness at high school would lead to a chance to represent your country in your chosen sport? Leisa Arthur started playing hockey when she was sixteen because she didn’t get around to picking her winter sport at school. Consequently, she was told she had to play hockey, which was the then sport coordinator at Mullumbimby High School’s ‘baby’.What’s more, as a something of a self confessed smarty pants, Leisa was told to play in goal to teach her a lesson. During that session, she played so well that she was asked to play in the team the following Saturday, and she has never looked back. After playing at a repre-

sentative level in U18s, Leisa had about ten years off while she had children. At the age of 30, she took up the sport again and joined the Mullumbimby Hockey Club’s veterans, which is an over 35 competition that allows for two players in each team to be between 30 and 35. ‘I really only intended to play on Tuesday nights,’ said Leisa. ‘I ended up playing on Saturdays as well in division two and had a great season. Because I was under 35 I couldn’t play representative vets, so I’ve been hanging out for my 35th birthday!’ Having turned 35 last year, Leisa indeed qualiďŹ ed for the Tweed Border vets team and from there was selected to play for Queensland. As part of the state team, she trav-

elled to Melbourne for the national titles where Queensland came third and she was selected to play for Australia against New Zealand in the Trans Tasman Cup. ‘I chose to nominate for the Trans Tasman team which is played in Tasmania in May next year,’ said Leisa. ‘I could have nominated for the team to tour Korea, but it’s so expensive and we have to pay for everything ourselves: uniforms, travel etc. and I just couldn’t manage that,’ said Leisa. ‘The Trans Tasman is a fantastic event as it has age groups from over 35s to over 55s. It’s incredible to see some 60 year olds still playing competitive hockey at an international level; they’re truly inspirational.’

Freckle is back in the saddle again Proving once again that he is in a class of his own, Craig Gream(pictured),aka Freckle, has annihilated the opposition in his age group at the recent Noosa triathlon with a decisive victory. Freckle has been struggling with a calf injury all winter, but a few weeks ago reached peak condition and ďŹ tness and felt ready to compete again. He came second in his age group in the Port Macquarie half iron man race three weeks ago, in which he recorded the fastest bike leg and was only caught in the last 4km of the run. He felt so ďŹ t and well following the race that he decided to back up only a few weeks later for the Noosa triathlon. The Noosa event is of olympic distance and as such is much shorter than Freckle is used to racing. Having just celebrated his fortieth birthday, he competed in the 4045 year age group for the ďŹ rst time and not only ďŹ nished ďŹ rst but recorded the second fastest bike leg in his division, beaten only by a professional in the ďŹ eld. Freckle hasn’t yet returned

Mullum drifts in to NSM ďŹ nal Brian Mollet The Melbourne Cup may stop the nation but the Nick Shand Memorial series causes seizures in the local sporting subculture as the grass-stained gladiators of Byron and beyond gather to contest social cricket’s premier prize. Sunday’s second semi ďŹ nal matched last year’s winners and serial trophy-hoggers Main Arm with the fearless, far-ung forces of the Mullumbimby Drift-ins.Trent won the toss for the Drift-ins and, despite the damp and gloomy conditions, chose to bat. Openers Jake and Ricky rattled the opposition early, carving up boundaries like British Imperialists and racing to 30 before the Armers could work up a decent level of sustained outrage. Well known as a man who throws ‘wobblys’, Brian curled one around Jake’s bat, and the emotional reservoir that drives the excitable hilldwellers began to ďŹ ll. Baz worked up a berserk

Paralympic talent search The Australian Paralympic Committee (APC) has embarked on a nation wide talent search program to find future athletes and coaches. Five time paralympic gold medallist and NSW Development OfďŹ cer for the APC Amy Winters is calling for potential athletes and coaches to register for the talent search. ‘What we saw in Athens was a huge improvement in standards and performances across all sports and events,’ said Amy. ‘Australia has traditionally been a powerhouse in paralympic sport, however other countries are rapidly bridging the gap on medal tallies, so it is really important for Australia to identify and develop new talent.’ There will be two paralympic talent search days taking place on the north coast including on at the Lake Ainsworth Department of

Crankin

tions for the inaugural Port Macquarie ironman next year, where he hopes that he’ll qualify for the Hawaii ironman for a very impressive third time.

Sport and Recreation on Sunday November 13 at 12.30pm. People with disabilities from all over the north coast are invited to take part. From previous NSW talent searches, a staggering 50% of participants have been identiďŹ ed as potential paralympians. ‘What is exciting, but also frustrating, is that there are loads of young people with disabilities in our communities who have the potential to make it to paralympic level, but they are not aware of or are not accessing the opportunities available to them,’ said Amy. ‘I’ve had some amazing experiences, travelled the world and have had many opportunities that have come as a result of my involvement in paralympic sport.’ For more information contact Amy on 9704 0515 or 0418 402 216.

from Noosa, but told Faron from Free to Ride in Byron Bay that he was feeling great and very happy with the result. When he gets back he will continue with prepara-

rage removing Ricky and Trent, and by drinks it was even going with the Drift-ins at 4/63 in slippery and testing conditions. On the resumption, Cliff and Hugh set about building a score with some sensible batting. Hugh (21) and Paul (22) steered the score to 108, which like a bloke’s best friend or a budget blowout, was much bigger than it seemed. It was much the same after lunch with Main Arm openers Brian and Mick Lonsdale squinting and prodding their way around the sharp seamers of Ricky and Sean. The Drift-ins leapt around the ďŹ eld like a swarm of jumping ants, then Ricky swooped on an uppish square drive from Brian to break through with the score on 13. Ricky seemed to be everywhere: he attracted balls faster than a danceparty diva; Shane and Bourkey also falling to lofted shots in his direction. Drinks saw the Armers under pressure at 4/53, but stubborn opener

Lonsdale dug in like a camphor laurel at one end with marquee batsman Greg at the other. Trent struck after drinks to remove Greg, and the premiers were on the rack.The skipper’s ďŹ eld placings were spot on, eager fieldsmen nabbing catches seemingly at will. Eli destroyed the tail and Main Arm’s hopes of victory with a three wicket haul in the late overs, all ten wickets falling to catches; even Cliff’s brilliant diving effort at midwicket off a full blooded pull shot from Tom seeming like par for the course. The Drift-ins advanced to next week’s ďŹ nal against the Geckos by a comfortable 20 runs and showed they have what it takes to bring home the Shire’s most revered sporting accolade. Rest assured the Echo will cover events like a Muslim bride.

Before multimedia was even a dream in a nerd’s brainbox, radio ruled the airwaves in rural Australia and the ABC’s The Country Hour was the staple diet of farming families. The program is now sixty years old and journalist Jenny Bailey has written The Country’s Finest Hour (available now from ABC shops and online at abcshop.com. au) to celebrate its birthday. Steam radio is still a friendly and useful companion to many out working in an isolated paddock. Q Q Q Q And as we enter the new Age of Crushing Sedition, Australians might reect on how lucky they are to have a national broadcaster which is not a tool of the politbureau. Journalist Mungo MacCallum and Mick O’Regan will discuss if it’s heading that way in an informal outing at the Billinudgel Hotel this Sunday from noon on. Will ASIO operatives whisk away the pub crowd for engaging in independent thinking? To see what our future might be like, take another look at Terry Gilliam’s prophetic ďŹ lm, Brazil. Q Q Q Q Under the proposed sedition clause of the new counterterrorism laws, you can be sentenced to seven years in jail for carrying out, advocating or encouraging seditious intention. How ‘intention’ is deďŹ ned is anybody’s guess and, given the sordid history of the department of immigration in wrongfully detaining Australian citizens for years, can we expect any better outcomes from the new laws? Q Q Q Q During ABC radio commentary on the Windies v Australia test match in Brisbane at the Gabba last weekend, pundits Jim Maxwell, Michael Slater and Fazeer

Mohammed were discussing the more attractive international cricket venues. SMH scribe Peter Roebuck offered up the unusual ‘Wanganetta’ ground, where he had a beer with Mungo MacCallum, as the most beautiful in the world. He meant of course the Blanche Reynolds oval at Wanganui, but it is lovely it holds such a special place in his cricketing memory. Q Q Q Q Local dancers might be interested know that the Gold Coast Dancers Company is auditioning for new members on Sunday November 20. Enquiries to 07 5598 4292. The works presented are classical ballet and a performance this year included guest artists from the Australian Ballet. Q Q Q Q Those who are pissed off by telemarketers interrupting their dinner – and who isn’t? – would do well to comment on the federal government’s discussion paper for a national Do Not Call register, which can be found at www.dcita. gov.au. The deadline for submissions is November 30. Backlash for one will not miss those chirpy chappies from Mumbai trying to sign you
