Celebrate Aboriginal culture Local Goolaboonya dancers will join Widjibul Jahgoon dancers and ‘Brothers of the Land’ band from Widjibul country, west of Lismore, in a free community event for everyone to unite and celebrate Aboriginal culture at Byron Bay next Thursday. Department of Environment and Climate Change (DECC) Ranger, and Arakwal spokesperson Nigel Stewart said the Arakwal people, and the Cape Byron Trust invite the community to join them in this year’s NAIDOC celebrations. ‘A variety of Aboriginal dance performances and live music will be a feature of the Aboriginal cultural awareness day at the Peace Pole park adjacent to the Byron Bay Surf Club. The day will begin

Divided highway divides community While federal and state roads ministers were celebrating the completion of the $256 million Brunswick Heads to Yelgun upgrade of the Pacific Highway last Sunday, various community groups took the opportunity to protest. Topics of protest included the highway itself and the federal government’s military intervention in Iraq. At the official opening NSW roads minister Eric Roozendaal took the opportunity to pose with Susan Devine, the great granddaughter of Matthew Devine, who the new Brunswick River bridge is named after and who ran the first punt across the river in 1890. Meanwhile federal roads minister Jim Lloyd was extolling the virtues of having a divided highway from Brisbane to Byron Bay. ‘The

progress so far has resulted in more than an hour being saved from the journey time between Sydney and Brisbane,’ he said in a press release. ‘This will be improved upon when the Tugun bypass is built and continuous freeway conditions apply from Brisbane to Byron Bay. That will generate benefits for the regional economy, particularly tourism. More than 1.7 million visitors travel to Byron Bay every year, almost exclusively by road.’ The 8.6km Brunswick Heads to Yelgun upgrade will not be fully operational until Tuesday afternoon this week, when linemarking and signs will be in place to direct motorists from the old highway to the new. Traffic will start using the new highway on Wednesday.

Mr Roozendaal said the project had cost almost $30 million a kilometre. ‘We see in this project some of the amazing engineering that has defined the standard of the Pacific Highway upgrade and the quality of infrastructure we are building for new generations of Australians,’ he said. ‘The public has had a very big say in the design of this project. The requested changes included a simplified interchange and balanced cantilever bridge with fewer pylons at the Brunswick River and highway access for northbound vehicles at Billinudgel. ‘Interchanges at North Brunswick Heads and Yelgun, and duplication of the Brunswick Heads bypass are among other features. The old highway has been retained

to become a new local road access between adjacent communities.’ Mr Lloyd and Mr Roozendaal congratulated the RTA for managing the project and Abigroup, the contractors, for their efficiency and workmanship. Northern Rivers residents do not have much to celebrate with the opening of the upgrade, according to organisers of the Trains On Our Tracks (TOOT) campaign. TOOT spokesperson Karin Kolbe said, ‘The Pacific Highway will not address the transport needs of most people living in the region. Census figures show that a majority of people living in the region live within five kilometres of the existing Casino-Murwillumbah rail line or the “missing link” between

with a peace march down Jonson Street and up to the Peace Pole adjacent to Byron Bay Surfclub. Bring your families and wear the colours of the Aboriginal flag. We will be marching in solidarity with our community and Arakwal Elders to celebrate Aboriginal culture. ‘People should meet at 10am at Railway Park so that we are ready to march by 10.30am. It is important that everyone is ready to go by 10.30am as police will be closing Jonson Street for the march. ‘When we get to the peace pole park it will be a great chance for

Ballina Petroleum has apologised for any inconvenience to customers of its 11 service stations in the Northern Rivers area of NSW, following BP’s decision to stop supplying the business with fuel. A spokesman for Ballina Petroleum, Santo Pennisi, said while many matters remained unclear, the company will for the present continue operating its service stations and will advise if there is any change to this. ‘I think that is what we must do in the interests of the motoring public and the approximately 150 Northern Rivers people employed directly by Ballina Petroleum

and indirectly through agents,’ he said. Ballina Petroleum has placed matters in the hands of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) and has provided a large volume of documents to the Commission. Some of the fuel that has been sold by Ballina Petroleum was advertised to be 98 octane product when in fact it had a reduced octane rating through the addition of standard unleaded fuel. “We estimate that the beneďŹ t to the company over the past three years is approximately $150,000,’ Mr Pennisi said.

The creation of the National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee (NAIDOC) has its origins in the ďŹ ght for Aboriginal rights that began to gather pace in the 1920s and 1930s. NAIDOC week is an annual event. The National NAIDOC Committee will mark the 50th anniversary of NAIDOC with the deadly theme: 50 years: Looking Forward, Looking Blak. ‘So bring the kids along and join members of the Arakwal community to celebrate NAIDOC and for what promises to be an enjoyable day for all,’ said Mr Stewart.

Getting trains on the CasinoMurwillumbah line will do more for people in our region. ‘With the amount of freight carried through the Pacific Highway corridor expected to double in the next ten years and similar increases in commuter and tourist passenger trafďŹ c, a social, economic and environmental disaster looms for communities in the Tweed, Byron and Ballina Shires unless a rail alternative is developed through this transport corridor. ‘We cannot continue to rely on the PaciďŹ c Highway to meet all the transport needs of the region.’

Wild and wicked support for tennis star (/-% $%,)6%29 Up and coming local tennis player Gene Healey has recently been given a great deal of support from a number of Byron Bay businesses. Running Wild is supplying Gene’s tennis equipment, Wicked Travel is supporting his travelling and accommodation costs and The Costas family has been contributing towards his coaching expenses. ‘I think they just like my playing,’ says Gene, ‘though I think Shane [Running Wild] knows I’ll be beating him soon. ‘No, really, if it wasn’t for help, especially from Mum and Dad, no country kid like me would have a hope of getting enough tennis to compete with the city kids.’ Gene’s tennis coach Alistair Kinghorn said, ‘As a coach I feel quite privileged to share his joy, his aliveness with my techniques and then wisdom, well, that’s a shared experience when you’re dealing with Gene.’ Gene competed at the recent inaugural North East

New drop-in centre for Byron Bay The Byron Bay Community Association, which runs the Byron Community & Cultural Centre, and the Salvation Army have formed a partnership to jointly provide a drop-in centre for four days a week. The drop-in centre, to be located at the Fletcher Street Room in the Centre, will provide services and assistance in emergency welfare relief, referrals to other services and resources, advocacy, counselling and crisis support, beverages and light refreshments for people in need, and a comfortable place to sit and chat. Darren Elsley, the Salvation Army representative in Byron Bay, said, ‘We want to provide a caring environment where the needy, lonely and disconnected of our community experience a sense of being valued and supported.’

According to BBCA president Jan Mangleson, the two organisations have a history of active partnership. From 2001 to 2003 Mr Elsley ran a number of community services at the old Fletcher Street house with the support of the BBCA management committee. When Mr Elsley returned to Byron Bay in 2006, the Salvos made a commitment to a full-time presence in the town and began seeking space for a drop-in centre. BBCA general manager Cassandra Parkinson said, ‘Each year since 2004, we’ve sought funds for a crisis worker and services for people in need, but we haven’t had any success, partly because there hasn’t been a suitable space available. ‘High rental costs in Byron Bay have made it impossible

to provide a drop-in facility without government assistance.’ Ms Mangleson said, ‘Although the BBCA’s funds are extremely tight, the management committee agreed this should be a priority. The BBCA has not had the human resources to accommodate the growing need for assistance and numerous attempts to obtain government funds have been unsuccessful.’ The centre will commence operations on Monday July 23 and will be open from 10am to 4pm, on Monday,

Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Pregnancy support and the homeless breakfast will continue in the Centre on Wednesdays. The space will be available for casual hire by community organisations outside those hours. Mr Elsley thanked the Lions Club, who have pledged assistance to help ďŹ t out the space. However, additional assistance is needed to help cover costs. Anyone who can support this initiative with cash or in-kind contributions is invited to contact Mr Elsley on 0434 537 282.

While the firies from Wilsons Creek Fire Brigade were fighting a substantial fire on Cedar Road throughout the day and evening of Wednesday July 4, their station was being substantially vandalised. All of the windows were smashed with stones, rocks and miscellaneous debris and to add insult to injury, one of the volunteers had items stolen from his truck outside the station. Three of four men who received awards just last week for over 60 combined years as volunteers in the Rural Fire Service were battling the blaze on Cedar Road when the station was abused. One would hope that the perpetrators won’t be needing the assistance of the courageous volunteers in the future. Right: Firies inspect the damage. Photo Sue Riley

A safe ďŹ nish is just the start with paints Story & photo Lou Beaumont Deborah Preston of Painted Earth, a small local company that distributes a large range of non-toxic and environmentally responsible paints and wood ďŹ nishes, was previously embedded in the organic food industry for over 20 years. The organic food industry has gone from strength to strength due to its obvious dual beneďŹ t to both the consumer and the environment. Likewise, the alternatives to conventional paints and varnishes logically beneďŹ t both the painter and the planet. Conventional paints, lacquers and varnishes have high concentrations of chlorinated or hydrocarbon solvents which emit (off-gas) volatile organic compounds (VOCs) producing a toxic cloud during and after application. These chemical fumes, such as Xylene, Styrene, Toluene, Benzenes, Isocyanate and Trichlorethylene, are potentially harmful for people and the environment. Common symptoms of toxic exposure to solvents can include nausea, dizziness, headaches, asthma, irritation of mucous membranes and fatigue. Longterm heavy exposure for painters can also result in nerve damage, immune impairment, reproductive disorders and cancer. VOCs are also a major contributor to outdoor air pollution or smog. These paints and ďŹ nishes can give off fumes for up to ďŹ ve years after their application, endangering the health of the painter, the inhabitant and the environment. Worse still, the manufacturing of such paints unavoidably produces

a large amount of toxic waste; waste that is circulating the globe unable to ďŹ nd a country willing to allow for its dumping. There is an alternative. Paints and ďŹ nishes such as those stocked by Painted Earth are produced using environmentally responsible methods. Sourced from several different companies, (Bio, Livos, Volvox, Oikos, Cooee, Enviropro and Phoenix), the range includes paints and finishes made from natural ingredients such as plant based paint, clay paint and natural wood oils and varnishes, through to high quality synthetic paints and wood ďŹ nishes which are water-based, zero or low VOC, and non-toxic. Deborah stocks products appropriate to private, commercial, industrial and farm applications, such as a bitumen based timber treatment to guard against wood rot. There is even an alternative for turps for the artists of the Shire. Deborah says, ‘The choice between a completely natural

or low VOC acrylic paint is yours. Natural paints and finishes are on the whole more environmentally friendly than synthetic ones, while synthetic ones are generally more durable and a little cheaper. ‘From a personal use perspective, you get peace of mind, cleaner air, no offensive odours, no downtime for commercial premises and a healthier lifestyle for you and our planet.’ Deborah is keen to emphasise that all Painted Earth products are chosen for their quality. While some of the prices may at ďŹ rst appear to be higher than regular products in a hardware store, it may be worth remembering that effort and time is money. It can be false economy to buy a cheaper paint or varnish only to discover that more than one coat is necessary. And how does the longevity of conventional ďŹ nishes compare with the natural alternatives? Initially you might think conventional and generally harder, shinier var-

nishes that are ďŹ lm-forming are better choices as they generally last longer than penetrating ďŹ nishes such as natural wood oils. However, if an area of varnish or oor lacquer is worn or penetrated allowing exposure of the wood to the elements, the only way to restore it is to sand back the entire larger area and begin again. Natural wood oils on the other hand seep into wood ďŹ bres nourishing from within and forming a natural and high sheen as opposed to the less natural looking shine of ďŹ lm forming lacquers. The wood’s own ďŹ nish is retained and enhanced and if an area becomes worn after a couple of years, oil is rubbed into the affected area without needing to retouch any nonproblem areas. Deborah would like to hear from any tradespeople interested in using her products so she can pass eco-concious clients their way. Contact Deborah on 6680 5729, deb@house-paint.com.au or visit www.house-paint.com. au for more information.

Award winning author Alexis Wright and the cover of her book designed by local artist Harry Williamson.

Winner of the prestigious 2007 Miles Franklin Literary Award, Alexis Wright, author of Carpentaria, will be one of the featured writers at this year’s Byron Bay Writers Festival, July 26-29. Named for and established by the author of My Brilliant Career, the award was ďŹ rst won by Patrick White for Voss in 1957. Local author Sarah Armstrong made the shortlist in 2005 for her debut work of ďŹ ction, Salt Rain. Fifty-ďŹ ve novels were submitted for this year’s award, which carries a cash prize of $42,000. Alexis Wright is a member of the Waanyi nation of the southern highlands of the Gulf of Carpentaria. Her books include Grog War, a study of alcohol abuse in the outback town of Tennant Creek, and the novel Plains of Promise, which was shortlisted for the Commonwealth Prize, the Age Book of the

Year and the NSW Premier’s Award. Carpentaria is her second novel, a soaring epic set in the Gulf country of north-western Queensland, from whence her people come. At this year’s festival Alexis Wright will engage in Conversation with Bundjalung woman and writer Melissa Lucashenko on the importance and inuence of country, and join crime novelist Garry Disher in a discussion led by Byron’s Chris Hanley on the ways in which landscape informs writing. Ms Wright’s other connection to Byron Shire is that the cover of Carpentaria was designed by local artist Harry Williamson. In an award-winning career spanning more than 40 years, Harry Williamson has been one of the pioneers of modern typographic design in Australia. His design ďŹ rm, Harry Williamson Special

Visual Projects, which is based in Federal, has been associated with many groundbreaking graphic design and communication projects. The cover design relates to the magisterial opening paragraphs of the novel and combines an image of a Rainbow Serpent tattoo, by kind permission of Murrandoo Yanner, with the photograph Morning Glory over the Leichardt River (2005), taken by another local, photographer Russell White, who works out of Ocean Shores. Harry has been designing books for the novel’s publisher Giramondo since its formation by Ivor Indyk in

Local News Truck driver veers towards roadside vigil at Byron Bay

As these stills from a video show, this truck driver veered off the road last Friday towards a group of residents at the Belongil bridge crossing on Ewingsdale Road, staging a vigil to call for the reduction of the speed limit following the death two weeks ago of cyclist Brian Brummell. While many people cheered and waved in support of the vigil, about a dozen hotheads expressed their rage, including the drivers of this truck and the following Toyota Camry, who both swerved

toward the crowd and video operator. The following Saturday Lyndal Denny launched the Coast to Coast 100 road safety campaign which ‘will enable north coast residents and visitors to ďŹ nally do something about the ongoing problem of aggressive, intimidating behaviour by heavy vehicle drivers as they tailgate and speed through our north coast communities along the PaciďŹ c Highway. ‘Letters have been sent to trucking companies across the

three eastern states over this past week advising them that NSW north coast residents are set to take mass action against intimidating driving behaviour by heavy vehicle drivers.’ The group’s website www.coasttocoast100.com.au has a ‘Report A Truckie’ tab. Coast to Coast 100 staff intend to liaise with the trucking company involved and if there is no satisfactory response, will report the incident to police.

The public submission period for the new residential project at Seacliffs, on Hayters Road at Suffolk Park, has been extended by an additional two weeks. The extension follows the high level of interest expressed by local residents in the project and the future of the site. Development company Petrac, which has bought the site, has agreed with the Byron Shire Council to extend the public submission

period until 5pm on Wednesday July 18. ‘Petrac is genuine about listening to the community, and we encourage all Suffolk Park residents to take advantage of the extended submission period to provide feedback on the Seacliffs project,’ said Stephen Bowers of Petrac. To make a submission, residents can contact Byron Shire Council on 6626 7000 to request a submission form,

or visit www.byron.nsw.gov. au/ and click on the ‘Have Your Say’ icon and select to ‘submit comments’ online. The project reference number is DA286/2007. Project plans are on display at the Byron Shire Council Chambers on Station Street in Mullumbimby and at the Byron Shire Library on the corner of Lawson and Fletcher Streets in Byron Bay. Petrac has also launched a

website, www.seacliffs.com. au, which contains information about the Seacliffs project, including links to the development application, vegetation and wildlife analysis by the local ecologist, plus site reports and displays. Residents can also use this website to provide any ideas, questions or feedback to Petrac. Petrac also has a free information hotline on 1800 120 123.

Residents want help to save Rosebank store A group of locals is forming a Rosebank Co-Operative to save their local store from possibly being lost to the community forever. The store and the house and land behind it are being auctioned on Saturday July 14 and many members of the Rosebank community want to secure it for the future by buying it, as a cooperative. The shop and cafĂŠ can then be run as a viable

enterprise, while those buying shares can help create a community vision for the rest of the property. This vision includes supplying locally produced and bulk food, after school care, a public open space, a minibakery, reopening the tennis court, running courses for kids and adults, solar and wind power displays and many other services. ‘In these days of rising petrol prices and food com-

ing from far away, we have this opportunity to create a thriving local hub and a one-stop-shop, so that the community can become more self-sufficient – it would be a great way to “Think Global, Act Localâ€?!’ says Lydia Kindred, spokesperson for the group. The cost of a share in the Co-Op is $250 (which can be paid off) and is open to anyone who would like to support the Rosebank community in saving their local general store and providing a more self-sufďŹ cient future

for the whole area, including providing skills and inspiration for the young people in the area. If you would like to buy a share you can have input into the plan and receive member discounts on food and services. To help save the centre of Rosebank for the community or for more information on the project please email Lydia Kindred at kindred@nrg.com.au or phone 6688 2220 with your pledge of one or more shares at $250 each.

RTA denies residents sound wall

stg

Hans Lovejoy ‘Bureaucracy is the death of all sound work’ according to Albert Einstein, and couldn’t be a more apt quote for Mark Bateson and neighbour Rod Tyson. Since March 2005, they and their families claim to be severely affected by noise and dust generated from the new highway road construction at Ocean Shores. They say their houses now have been damaged, and despite meetings with Member for Ballina Don Page, Abigroup and RTA (Roads Traffic Authority) representatives, no settlement has been reached. They own the only two houses not protected by a sound wall along the new stretch of highyway at Ocean Shores. ‘Every other property has a sound wall along this stretch, so why can’t we have one?’ says Mr Bateson. ‘The problem started way back in 2005 when sound tests were done. A document produced by [sound consultancy company] Renzo Tonin clearly shows sound testing locations that appear further away from our properties than any other.’ Don Page has been supportive of the families’ plight. His speech to Parliament on October 26, 2006, called on the Minister for Roads Eric Roozendaal to intervene and rectify this situation by having a sound wall constructed. ‘The bones of the situation is that noise mitigation has been put up in front of the houses along Rajah Road that are owned by the RTA,’ Mr Page said in his speech, ‘The sound wall stops dead at the end of their last property, only leaving out Mr Bateson’s and Mr Tyson’s

properties at the end of the line. There certainly appears to be a double standard in this incident.’ Despite several representations to the Minister for Roads on behalf of Mr Tyson and Mr Bateson on this issue, ‘no responses beyond acknowledgements have been received,’ according to Mr Page. Mr Roozendaal’s ofďŹ ce also did not return The Echo’s phone calls asking why there has been no response to Mr Page’s letters. The RTA did, however, respond. An RTA spokesperson said that, ‘When the upgrade is complete, both homes will be signiďŹ cantly further away from the highway than they were before the upgrade – the Bateson property 26 metres further away and the Tyson property 41 metres away. Both homes should experience signiďŹ cant reduced noise levels due to this increased distance and the use of low noise asphalt, however the RTA will under-

take additional noise monitoring after construction, to gauge this. ‘The RTA has sought an independent insurance assessment of new damage to the Bateson property. Previous independent assessments on damage at both properties found it was not related to the highway construction work.’ Ewingsdale resident Bernard Grinberg is someone who knows about sound walls and The RTA. He was instrumental in having the RTA install sound walls at Ewingsdale, and his experience as an engineer sheds light on the complexity of the issue. ‘It took in total ďŹ ve years and signiďŹ cant legal fees to have the [Ewingsdale] walls installed,’ he told The Echo. Asked what advice would you give the affected families, he said, ‘Get legal representation, and raise money for it. Hire a sound consultant. No government department

,/

wants legal challenges. You also have to remember that the noise emitted by truck compression brakes has very low frequencies that travel through and around sound walls and double glazing. Sound walls will help with some level of noise reduction, particularly tyre and engine noise, but not all.’ Abigroup has agreed to give the families the now superfluous Ferry Reserve Caravan Park sound wall. In a recent meeting between the families and Abigroup, Mr Bateson says Will McDonald of Abigroup gave assurances that the wall is theirs if someone pays for moving and construction. ‘I hope the RTA will come to the party and pay for the construction of the wall,’ Mr Bateson said. ‘Common sense asks why can’t the RTA come to the party and pay for the construction? ‘We need the RTA’s consent and I’m still waiting on a response.’

Oil ain’t oil when it comes to Iraq Vol 22 #05

July 10, 2007

Diabetes on the rise National Diabetes Week started last Sunday. It aims to focus attention on an increasingly prevalent disease which can have very serious complications, including heart and kidney disease. According to the North Coast Area Health Service (NCAHS), diabetes is the fastest growing non-infectious disease in the world. For every person who has diabetes there is another person who has it and doesn’t know. Diabetes is a serious health condition with no cure. If left untreated it can cause heart attack, stroke, kidney failure, blindness, amputation, and erectile dysfunction. If diagnosed early, however, diabetes can be effectively managed and the risk of serious health problems greatly reduced. ‘Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of diabetes, can be successfully managed or even prevented by maintaining a healthy weight, engaging in regular physical activity and having healthy eating patterns,’ says NCAHS. ‘To reduce the risk of diabetes and its complications, aerobic exercise for at least 30 minutes on most days is recommended. A brisk walk is a great start, building up to more vigorous exercise if you can manage it. ‘About 1,000 people are being diagnosed with diabetes every week, so knowing the warning signals is a big help. In the early stages of the illness some people might not experience signs of diabetes while others may experience thirst, increased frequency of passing urine and tiredness.’ Annual testing for undiagnosed diabetes is recommended in high-risk people who include women with a previous history of diabetes in pregnancy, people aged 55 years and over, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders aged 35 and over, all people with cardiovascular disease and people aged 45-plus with such risk factors as obesity, a close relative with type 2 (adult onset) diabetes, hypertension and impaired glucose tolerance. The Northern Rivers General Practice Network (NRGPN) is reinforcing the campaign which stresses that people who are large around their middle have a greater risk of developing type 2 diabetes. ‘Many people don’t realise that carrying excess weight around the waist is a major contributing factor in the onset of type 2 diabetes,’ said NRGPN spokesperson Dan Ewald. ‘We’ve seen a threefold increase in the number of adults with diabetes since the early 1980s and that’s a frightening statistic. So this year, during National Diabetes Week, we are urging Australians to check their waist measurement. ‘Men whose waist measures more than 102 centimetres (40 inches) and women more than 88 centimetres (35 inches) are in the high risk category for developing type 2 diabetes. Reducing a high waist measurement through sensible weight management and increased physical activity will reduce the risk of developing type 2 diabetes.’ GPs can inform patients how to reduce their risks of developing diabetes as well as diagnose and treat the condition. Patients with type 2 diabetes may now also access affordable care with a GP Management Plan, which allows patients to access rebatable services such as dieticians, diabetes educators and podiatrists under Medicare. News of Lismore’s Diabetes Week events is available at the NCAHS website www.ncahs.nsw.gov.au. Diabetes Australia www.diabetesaustralia.com.au also has useful background information on its site.

T

he reasons for going to war are seldom as simple as the politicians would like us to think. The architects of the 2002 invasion of Iraq believed, first and foremost, that the country under Saddam Hussein constituted an unacceptable threat to American interests; but this proposition was hardly saleable to the world at large. Therefore they came up with different lines for different groups. For the visionaries it was a chance to bring democracy to the Middle East; to redneck patriots it was a chance to hit back at the towel heads for 9/11. For the sceptics, it was to eliminate the threat of weapons of mass destruction; for idealists, it was about getting rid of a tyrant. But for the realists in the military industrial complex, it was all about oil. Saudi Arabia was showing signs of instability; the west’s supplies could be in danger. The best way to secure them for the future was by making sure Iraq played ball, and all the rest was window dressing. As a letter writer to the Sydney Morning Herald commented succinctly last week: we would never have invaded Iraq if its principal export had been tofu. This has always been obvious to anyone with an IQ higher than that of Alexander Downer, but it is a truth our government refuses to acknowledge. So when the hapless Defence Minister Brendan Nelson let it slip last week, a certain amount of hell broke loose. Fortunately Nelson was about to leave for overseas; he was told to go at once and stay there until ordered to return. His senior colleagues burst

into vociferous denial. John Howard said it wasn’t about oil, it never had been about oil and it never would be about oil. Peter Costello sermonised that Australian troops did not fight for oil – they fought for democracy. Downer said our troops were there to provide security until the Iraqis could look after themselves. Oil? What oil? It all sounded a bit silly, especially as Nelson had simply been quoting from a Defence Department document aimed largely at providing justification for Aus-

target. Howard’s reply is that we are a target anyway; which bit of ‘more’ does he not understand? But the government was not about to sit down and have a discussion on the subject. Phillip Ruddock was too busy rushing in new antiterrorism laws, Downer was too busy warning about travel to Indonesia, Nelson was too busy hiding. And of course in the wake of the failed London and Glasgow attacks we have the new shock horror of fanatical foreign-born doctors ready to

tralia keeping forces in Iraq; not unnaturally the military noted the stability of oil supplies as part of the argument. But Howard, having denied the obvious for more than five years, couldn’t afford to admit it now: he continued to insist, against all sense and logic, that the troops were there as part of the war against terrorism and withdrawal would deliver victory to al Qaeda. And of course they made us more secure from terrorism, not less. This postscript was made necessary because the GetUp organisation is currently running an ad featuring Louise Barry, a victim of the first London bombings. In it Barry appeals to Howard to end the presence in Iraq, which she says is making the country more likely to become a terrorism

murder us in our beds. Surely there’s enough going on to reduce the electorate to a quivering jelly? But although half the Howard ministry is out there trying desperately to put national security back on the agenda as a major election issue, the public so far has shown no sign of responding. Perhaps it’s because Kevin Rudd, while generally supportive, has appeared far more measured. His line that the most effective security policy for Australia would be the announcement of an exit strategy from Iraq makes far more sense than the government’s absurd pretence that oil was never even the teensiest part of the equation.

W

ith friends like the Fair Pay Commission, who needs enemies?

Last week’s minimum wage decision of a $10.26 increase was the lowest for a decade, and coming after 16 unprecedented boom years, arguably the meanest on record. John Howard had to endorse it; after all, the Commission is his baby, a central part of the policy formerly known as WorkChoices which, he assures the workers, has helped ensure that they have never been better off. But privately he must have been spewing. Last year the Commission was generous; the increase of $27.36 took everyone by surprise and cast doubts on the idea that it was just part of Howard’s grand plan to drive wages down. But now, in an election year, it appears that the conspiracy theory has been confirmed. The increase of just over 2 percent does not even keep pace with the inflation rate; the battlers are to be well and truly screwed. Ian Harper, the Commission President, has tried to explain that it is necessary to avoid pressure on interest rates and to keep the growth in employment moving, but the same arguments applied last year and were ignored. Harper has yet to justify his abrupt transformation from Santa Claus to Scrooge. The decision will only confirm the conspiracy theorists who see Howard as the arch-enemy of the workers, determined to upset the traditional balance and place all power in the hands of profitmad bosses. And of course the fact that the politicians’ own wage tribunal has just awarded Howard and his mates 6.7 percent does not help either.

Money sense After reading your article ‘Beware the $20 man’ in last week’s Echo I felt a need to respond. I found this simple method worked for me and hope that it eases Julie’s concerns. Always keep the banknote tendered on your side of the counter in a secure position, visible to both parties, (perhaps tucked under the corner of the cash register). Get the correct change from your cash register, then verbally count the change back, placing it in the customer’s hand. After the transaction is completed place the original banknote into the register. You will then be conďŹ dent that you have given the correct change to your customer, and leave no room for error, or for the scam man to rip you off.

Dark deals in the Territory Q Is our prime minister interested in the little kiddies in the NT, or is he embarking on a plan to clear the way for his international nuclear waste dump? Does Howard need the NT MT? Is he capable of having made a promise to the US that is more important than getting re-elected? No Sorry, just military and police to resolve social problems built around poverty – good one, John! Terra Nullius? No, Terror Nucleus! Duncan Dey

Q I have been wondering why the Aboriginal issue seems to be centred on communities in the Northern Territory. Why does it not appear to include communities like Kempsey, Forbes, Parkes etc., which have similar problems? After doing a little snooping on the net it appears perhaps the reason is that these communities don’t have land rights over suitable nuclear waste dump sites as do those which are strung like a string of pearls along the Ghan Tom Shenfield Railway line. The new Ghan Byron Bay Railway was a joint venture

A different beast In regard to last week’s editorial ‘Why we are here’. There is no doubt that the Bay has been transformed by consumerism, just as there is no doubt that Main Arm is about to encounter its ďŹ rst middle class residential estate, born in the belly of a Trojan Horse called sustainable development. While Byron Bay residents consider the means of reclaiming their town centre and residential areas from consumerism, the proposed development at Main Arm is

not signed, sealed and delivered. The proposed development needs to be signed off by the state government. And the state government hasn’t. The Main Arm residents have taken their case to the state planning minister, and he has called a meeting in Sydney with the representatives of the Main Arm locals, Council and the proposed developers to consider the application. The Main Arm residents have taken their opposition to the belly of a different beast. They continue to stand up for their

between Halliburton KBR, Barclay Mowlem, John Holland at a cost of AUS $1.3 billion. KR/Halliburton managed to negotiate a 40% ownership of the line from Adelaide to Darwin for a leasehold period of 50 years. The Ghan will service uranium mines from SA to Darwin, thence to China and India and anyone else that needs uranium. It is expected that freight customers will be the main users and cargo target is three million tonnes a year. Australia will be the global supplier of nuclear products and receiver of nuclear waste in the near future after John Howard signed the Global Nuclear Economic partnership agreement with G W Bush last year. (Didn’t ask us ďŹ rst, did he?) While the NSW ALP (Alternative Liberal Party) is closing down our country railway lines, the line linking Sydney to the Ghan is ďŹ t and healthy, which will be very convenient for places like Lucas Heights to transport their nuclear fuel rods to Darwin (where the US military is siting a new base and port for their warships which neither confirm nor deny

Letters anything) and their waste to dumpsites along the way. Here is a multiple-choice question: the government’s action regarding the Northern Territory’s indigenous population is: A) An apolitical humanitarian mission of compassion? B) An election ploy? C) A bipartisan axis intent on seizing control of their land for the purpose of both mining uranium and disposing of radioactive waste? If you are inclined to answer A), keep in mind the old saying, ‘We can protect ourselves from those who do things in the name of evil, but no one can protect us from evil that is done in the name of good.’ By the way, did anyone see the very short piece on ABC TV where a very concerned Aboriginal grandmother said how their youngsters were given goods, drugs and petrol (for sniffing) in return for sexual favours by some business people in their area? She also made mention of pedophilic tourists. The snippet was never repeated. Not good to implicate any white people in the Aboriginal child sexual abuse issue, eh? Peggy Balfour

aspirations for the local area, making it compulsory for and the result of the develop- employees and students to be ment proposal has, at this continued overleaf stage, not been finalised. And, having been made aware of the strength of the Main Arm opposition, I wouldn’t consider the development inevitable.

fully vaccinated. The policy states that this is part of a broader strategy – I would suspect that compulsory vaccination for everyone is on the agenda. As a registered nurse, I’ve worked (and am still working) within the public health system for 40 years. It’s very hard to get broad-based information on the subject within that system but we do all need to become more informed about the health effects of vaccinations. I was recently recommended to read a book called Just a Little Prick by Peter and Hiliary Butler. Hiliary is an internationally known ‘lay’ authority on vaccination who, with her husband, gives an insight into many facets of the debate. It is excellently referenced, with published studies (also showing lack of) and personal stories of affected families. This book is offered as a community service, not for sale but a donation would be appreciated. They can be contacted at butler@ watchdog.net.nz. Rose Pitman

Watery decisions As a delegate from Byron Shire on Rous Water I get to

see some explicit cases of the water industry at work. Although Rous is supposedly an independent body, the really big decisions on water policy are being made elsewhere (Water Directorate, Dept of Commerce and a few key boardrooms). A general manager with a rather unusual management style along with an elected body which generally goes along with whatever is dished up makes for little public input at the local level. With little forward financial planning, cash from water sales is wasted on absurd consultancies. Something like a provincial hybrid of Grassroots and Yes Minister. In this context, I have nevertheless supported Rous’s demand management and water conservation initiatives. But even there the final straw was reached this week when they decided to adopt the idiotic ‘odds and evens’ ban on garden watering being trialled by Lismore. If a practice is OK on Tuesday, how can it be not OK on Wednesday? If such a restriction had any merit, one would assume it would turn up in Rous’s demand management strategy. It never has. My best guess is that this is merely

‘chook feed’ – to give the impression that something is being done about demand management while better ideas (like designing waterefficient gardens) are ignored.

Hairy roads

Dr George Forgon-Smith (Letters, July 3), cyclists do not kill motorists, but motorists do kill cyclists.Somehow in this debate it is always the fault of the road, the fault of Cr Richard Staples council, the fault of the Talofa cyclist, the fault of the horse

rider but never the bleeding driver. As a doctor I am sure you are pro banning cigarettes. How are cars any different if it is not the fault of the driver? Cars kill far more people than fags and they are still allowed to run macho ads on TV selling power to

yobs. If you have a gun in your hands and it kills someone you will probably be jailed. If you have a car in your hands and it kills someone there is a disturbing tendency to blame someone else. When speeding in a car gets the same rap as

ing at the Byron markets as well, with local residents encouraged to make noise complaints and tie up already stretched Byron police in ‘policing’ what is clearly a cultural and lifestyle issue. To put this in context – drumming and dancing happen for a maximum of four hours at the markets, once a month! Meantime, pubs in the area are free to play amplified music till late, mega festivals like Splendour and the Blues bombard the town with sound, yet it’s always the drumming and dancing at the markets that get a serve. (Is this because

there’s no buck to be made by anybody?) We invite all drummers and dancers of the shire to the next Mullumbimby market, Saturday July 14, for a show of mirthful solidarity. Further, as we are always open to discuss this issue with concerned parties, we invite anyone with any complaints to front up to the drum circle at Mullum market at 2pm and freely speak their minds. We promise to give you the fair hearing that we never got before we were ‘cancelled’.

Natives restless, drums at the ready… Q What is happening in Byron Bay? After how many years (?) of drumming at the Byron Bay market, we have had a flurry of police visits about noise complaints. The first was the weekend of the Blues Fest. Incredibly, there were complaints about the volume of the drumming, while the din from the footy ground 3kms away nearly drowned us out. No police at the Blues Fest (not even directing the dangerous traffic), five cops at the drumming circle! Next was a memorial for Vision, who died in the circle last year. The police arrived at 2pm. This

was a market day, with the usual chaos and din from thousands of visitors. Last market at 5pm, two police arrive and announce that any further drumming and each person with a drum will be fined $280. I spoke with them and to their credit, were both communicative and ‘just doing their job’ etc. Next day I went to the police station and got forms to attempt to legalise what I believe is a long standing culture. I also spoke to a councillor and will be following him up, as the council rangers are involved. Who’s behind this?

Let me take a punt on newly arrived fat cat baby boomers, who have moved in to the CBD of Byron and have an overblown view of their importance and personal space. Their ‘Not In My Backyard!’ city approach will only add to the demise of the remnants of culture in this last bastion against John Howard World. Andy McTavish

Goonengerry Q So ‘ban the bomb’ has become ‘ban the drum’... Drumming and dancing have been a unique feature of markets in the Byron Shire for

over a decade, providing an opportunity for musical and cultural expression and enjoyment that is inclusive, healthy and vibrant for participants and spectators alike. In fact, any historian with their ear to the ground will agree that drumming and dancing are a vital aspect of the grassroots culture of Byron and the rainbow region. Yet the Brunswick Valley Historical Society deems it fit, on the basis of a few complaints, to ‘cancel drumming’ at the Mullumbimby markets. Further, there are moves afoot to canvass opposition to the drumming and danc-

Letters attempted murder, which it may as well be, we may then see some noticeable difference in the way people drive around here. I don’t know if it has something to do with an excess of love and peace or an excess of ale in the Shire that leads to all this pent-up aggression behind the wheel but from a horse’s back or from the seat of a cycle it can get pretty hairy out on our roads.

Speaking clearly Mayor Jan Barham has advised that, as in years past, Byron Shire Council will, along with other Northern Rivers councils, offer certiďŹ cates to all schools in the Shire, recognising excellence in oral communication. Previously, some schools have elected to accept a single certiďŹ cate; others required a certiďŹ cate

for each class; while one school requested a certiďŹ cate for each student which does tend to defeat the purpose of the exercise. Whatever, there is an awareness that good speech is a lifetime social and business asset, thus the earlier our youngsters pay attention to this beneďŹ t the better. All schools fully understand that this project is not about affectation but simply a request that students should consciously endeavour to speak more clearly, distinctly, and fluently, in Australian English. Note that we make no apologies for the manner in which most Australians speak – we just want to be the best. Parents can play their part by assisting their children with pronunciation, reading aloud, and general encouragement. Teachers, who are rightly regarded as role models for their students, can

usually be relied on to play a smile. It’s certainly a prettybig part in the program albeit as-a-picture event. And it needs more depth, it is an addition to the school more complementary events curriculum. Richard L Kidby surrounding it, such as Mullumbimby forums, public addresses, book launches and so on.

Ripped off Having lived in Mullumbimby for the past two years, I’ve often spoken of the friendliness of the people and the fact that we live in a peaceful, beautiful, crime free area. The reality of this idyllic surround has been bought home recently after discovering my daughter’s car had been broken into – the thief was kind enough to take the money and leave her wallet (thank you) and she hoped the week-old lunch on the back seat that was taken was enjoyed and didn’t make the perpetrator too sick. A couple of days ago the emblem from my Mercedes Benz was taken. I have to park it on the street as, only having sight in one eye, I’m not brave enough to try and park in my garage. To the thief who had to have it, I just want you to know that a new one costs about $150 and as I’ve been unable to find a job to even pay for a much needed service and new tyres, you have now only added to the burden. To all those idiots out there who indulge in this sort of pettiness, please note, not all Mercedes drivers are moneyed folk. Some of us have worked bloody hard to pay off a decent car purchased secondhand to start with. If you come across someone touting a new piece of jeweller y or pushbike emblem please show them this letter and tell them to come and see me. They won’t, as cowards of this nature think they’re hard done by. Stop and smell the flowers and be thankful for what you have instead of trying to make others ‘pay’ for what you perceive as your loss. Kym Masterson

We cast our minds back to February 7, 2003. The Prime Minister, on the brink of Australia’s commitment of forces to Iraq, is in conversa-

tion with 3AW host Neil Mitchell. Mitchell: Prime Minister, has oil got anything to do with this conflict? Prime Minister: No, I don’t believe for a moment it has. What a difference three and a half years can make. This today (July 5) from the online pages of The Australian: ‘Securing oil a factor for war in Iraq, says Nelson ‘The government has admitted the need to secure oil supplies is a factor in Australia’s continued military involvement in Iraq. ‘Defence Minister Brendan Nelson said today oil was a factor in Australia’s contribution to the unpopular war, as “energy security” and stability in the Middle East would be crucial to the nation’s future. Speaking ahead of a key foreign policy speech today by Prime Minister John Howard, Dr Nelson said defence was about protecting the economy as well as physical security, and it was important to support the “prestige” of the US and UK.’ Best not to mention Weapons of Mass Destruction. Ian Morton

Clunes Q There is no way, a couple of months before the federal election, Brendon Nelson accidentally leaked that oil was the main reason we invaded Iraq. Howard is a master propagandist, and knows exactly what he is doing. After four years of occupation, COW have stirred up a civil war and smashed Iraq into a failed state, and vomited so much anti-Islamic invective over Australians that we’re at last ready for ‘the truth’ – ‘Those “terrorists” don’t deserve their oil, and it will be much better if we control it!’ Iraq and the Northern Territory have that in common. Invade Iraq to grab their resources under the pretext of ‘WMD, regime change, freedom and democracy and staying the course’ – and invade the NT under the pretext of ‘saving the children’ to grab their land for mine sites and a nuclear waste dump. Howard is playing his ‘race card’ again. I hope this time a majority of Australians can rise above their prejudice. Don’t fall for his ‘oil leak’, and don’t ‘Tampa’ with our kids! Michael Balson

Mice at work deep in the night Mary Gardner The long nights might have local primates resting in their nests more, but who can say what about mice? Their nocturnal world can seem almost as remote as the stars above. The native mice of special interest in the Byron area are the Eastern Chesnuts (Pseudomys gracilicaudatus). They are about twice the length of the introduced house mouse, and up to four times greater in body weight. Unlike the introduced mice, they will have nothing to do with houses so you won’t ďŹ nd them calling on you at home. You will need to go out into their world. I hear they live in the heathlands, along the coast. Although the house mouse can turn out in plague numbers and also carry diseases, the Eastern Chestnut does neither. They are said to live in low numbers, even though they can have up to three litters a year. Depending on the season, they will eat invertebrates like insects and snails, fruit, seeds, leaves and fungi. They organise themselves with networks of burrows and runways through the undergrowth. Each mouse takes charge of about a half hectare. Before you go out searching for Eastern Chesnuts,

The Eric Wright Lookout and the surrounding reserve is believed to be home to the Eastern Chestnut Mouse. Photo Mary Gardner

you can learn a little more about rodents from house mice ďŹ rst. I have. Once, I kept two little brown mice in a very large multilevel clear plastic box with a wire lid. Unlike dwellings of native mice, house mice nests can smell awful. So, in an attempt to deal with their toilet needs, I created a kind of living ecosystem. I ďŹ lled the bottom of the box with a mixture of sand and highly fertile humus soil from the garden. I thought the soil bacteria would help. The house was odour free for over a fortnight, when I would need to intervene. What surprised me even more was how the two mice showed themselves to be

the trees, I can picture how this happens quite clearly. Even a bit affectionately. By night, the mice will eat fungi in their underground burrows and take it along their runways which twist between tree roots. The spores will drop everywhere and be taken up by the hairs of the roots. One mouse will groom another, shedding more spores. In my mind’s eye, the whole scene is both everyday and magical. The pragmatism of animals’ lives among plants. The interactions which build meanings into small actions. The consequences hinted at for healthier trees, for birds and bats and others. What we humans see is a leafy vista with the sea as the horizon. All this based on the spread of fungi and the happiness of mice. In Byron, the Eastern Chesnut mice, nocturnal, reclusive and very rare, may be doing exactly this type of thing and more.

sculptors and engineers. They created a network of tunnels, runways and castles through and over the soil mixture. Then, after four or ďŹ ve days, they would change the entire system into another conďŹ guration. Over six months, I watched them both endlessly dig dirt and then carefully groom themselves and each other. Having soil instead of sawdust or paper, they showed themselves as enterprising creatures, making an enormous difference in their environment.

Things are buzzing at Byron Youth Service To develop the Byron Youth Service (BYS) centre into a model Carbon Neutral/ Reduction Educational Green Garden, BYS will establish a Youth/Community Eco education training centre for the sustainable use of Water Energy & Land (WEL) within an Educational Green Garden (egg). A sub structure called Byron Eco Youth Services (BEYS) will help schools, youth centres and community groups design and build

their own egg systems through partnerships and training conducted by BYS and other registered training organisations. BEYS aims to set up an Eco infrastructure & education fund called the Eco fund. The Eco fund will accept money from grants, public donations, fundraising and carbon funding from schools, businesses, family homes and individuals. Money raised will first set up BYS as a model Eco centre

then assist schools, youth centres and community based organisations to design and build their own egg systems based on the sustainable use of Water Energy and Land (WEL). BEYS will also form partnerships with registered training organisations (RTO) schools, community based organisations and business organisations to develop certified training programs to teach people (young and old) how to design, build and

maintain sustainable integrated Water Energy and Land (WEL) systems. If you would like to contribute to the BYS Eco Fund, or support this project please contact Wadzy or Di on 6685 7777.

Shimmering art leads in to an underwater world

C

rabbes Creek Public School pupils were very excited this year to be asked to review four gorgeous books illustrated by a local artist Kim Michelle Toft. At ďŹ rst glance it is not easy to decide which age of child would love these books best, so we decided to introduce them to all of our K to 6 students. Each book was read in small multi-age groups with the senior children writing comments for themselves and for the younger children as they went. The classroom was abuzz with excitement as heads pored over these truly beautiful picture books. The four books reviewed were One Less Fish and Neptune’s Nursery by Kim Michell Toft and Allan Sheather, Turtle’s Song by Kim Michelle Toft and Alan Brown, and The World That We Want by Kim Michelle Toft. All of us were so captivated at ďŹ rst by the shim-

combination of a latex-based ink called gutta and dyes blended like watercolour. To fix the colour, the silk is rolled up and steamed in a special machine. The next process is then somehow translated onto the paper pages of a book! This creates the most beautiful feeling of being immersed in a magical blue-green sea or sky with all of the wonderful Australian creatures you meet on each successive page. Each book not only shows the illustrator’s love for the beauty of underwater life but also teaches the reader to understand the importance of preserving this precious world. These books are a reection of Kim Michelle Toft’s love for the beauty of life under water and her desire to help our children understand the importance of its preservation. So as we read further, the older children started to find the deeper message of conservation in each book and were excited to ďŹ nd very detailed animal facts in the back of each book. One Less Fish has reached

the honour list of the Children’s Book Council of Australia and is a truly powerful book for all ages. All of our children gained excellent insights into the plight of not only our Barrier Reef but also other coral reefs around the world. Each page opened up a lively discussion, with the older children returning time and time again to the information pages. This book tells them to remember that â€˜ďŹ sh that die one by one may soon become none by none’. Neptune’s Nursery teaches us about many creatures of the Australian sea. Our Grade One children quickly noticed the little seahorse that hides throughout the book and spent a long time searching for it amongst the colourful habitats of many sea animals. On turning to the back of the book the older children were able to explain many things about this small upright ďŹ sh. Again, we read that these creatures are increasingly under threat from humans, with a project to breed seahorses already under way in Tasmania

(something important for us all to learn!) The World That We Want explains in vibrant pages the nature of our coastal ecosystem, taking the reader on a journey from the air to the ocean and highlighting the importance of keeping this world in perfect balance. Turtle’s Song takes the reader on a journey of the sea turtle – from its ďŹ rst moments awakening from the egg to its old and wise self. We are shown the intriguing ability and huge effort of female turtles to ďŹ nd the exact beach where they were born so that they can also lay eggs. This reminds us once more how important it is to preserve habitats like this, enabling the cycle of life to continue. In short, this is a very important set of books for all libraries, giving our children further tools and deep understanding on their journey to assist in the preservation, maintenance and restoration of our world. – Jenny Parenteau Classroom Teacher Crabbes Creek Public School

North Youth Pathways and Southern Cross Distance Education Centre. Together they have come up with a formula that provides alternative learning pathways for young people who have had difďŹ culty succeeding in a traditional school environment. And the early indications are that it is working. Paul Spooner, Director of Byron Youth Service, explained that the structure of the campus is designed to meet the needs of high school students of all ages. ‘On Mondays and Tuesdays we provide a learning environment for students under the age of 15 years,’ said Mr Spooner. ‘They follow the regular curriculum through Southern Cross Distance Education under the supervision and guidance of a DET teacher. On Thursdays and Fridays we have our students who are over 15 who would like to work towards their Year 10 CertiďŹ cate. They are supervised by Regan Harding, a TAFE teacher and North Coast TAFE’s CertiďŹ cate II in General and Vocational Education (CGVE) Coordinator. On Wednesdays we offer life skills and mentoring, which are optional.’ Sixteen year old Lakota Kendall was the campus’s ďŹ rst student. He had struggled at high school, become disengaged from learning and was not attending classes.

‘I hated school,’ said Lakota. ‘I felt that I had been labelled as a difďŹ cult student from the start because I hung out with a group of older kids who were in trouble a lot. I felt that the teachers disliked me, so that in the end it seemed easier not to go to school at all than be ridiculed and picked on.’ For Lakota’s mother Llama, BCC has given her a chance to redeďŹ ne her relationship with her son. ‘Lakota loved primary school, even though he needed remedial teaching to help with his dyslexia,’ said Llama. ‘But once he started high school, things started to go wrong, and by Years 8 and 9 we were really struggling. ‘The school would ring me to tell me that Lakota was mucking up, and I would feel that I had to give him a hard time about it after school. Then he stopped wanting to come home. I really think that if he had attempted to complete Year 10 at school, our home life would have been very unharmonious. ‘Lakota is a hexagonal peg who doesn’t fit into the round hole. He has always

ĂŠ

needed to challenge authority and I love that about him,’ she added. Regan Harding is quick to point out that BCC is not a ‘dumping ground for difďŹ cult kids’, rather a safety net for those students who are struggling with the structure of regular school. ‘We have very strong partnerships with the high schools,’ said Ms Harding. ‘It is ideal for students to stay at school, but if that doesn’t work then this is an option. ‘I’ve really noticed how much the students have matured since they started here. For the ďŹ rst few months they were almost dissing school, but now they have settled down and started to take responsibility for their actions.’ Unfortunately, as with all such projects, funding is a problem, and the campus is running at full capacity at present. All those involved would dearly love to expand the program but need extra space and resources to make it happen. Anyone who would like to help by becoming a patron can contact Paul Spooner on 6685 7777.

Alex McAuley For many young people, the journey through adolescence is similar to walking through a mineďŹ eld blindfold. The dangers surrounding them are many, and often the young person is oblivious to them. Getting through this metaphorical minefield unscathed is tricky, and not something young people can do alone. As adults, we have put a number of structures in place to help keep our young people safe on this journey. Family support, involvement in extra curricular activities, strong discipline with clearly deďŹ ned boundaries at home and at school all provide good safety measures for our children. But what about those children who do not have all these structures in place? What about, for instance, the growing number of children for whom school is a poor ďŹ t? How do we help to keep these youngsters on the right track? Deputy Principal at Mullumbimby High School Richard Heazlewood-Ross is particularly concerned about the fate of these children. ‘I strongly feel that this is a social justice issue: everyone has a right to an education. There will always be students who, for whatever reason, do not respond to the support or assistance provided in high school, and there are always students who do not ďŹ t into large groups,’ he said. In an attempt to provide a safety net for these ‘at risk’ children, Mr HeazlewoodRoss and other key members of our educational community and youth support services got together to discuss some options. After two years of planning and information gathering, the Byron Community Campus (BCC) was born. The project management team comprises representatives of Byron Shire Council, NSW Department of Education & Training (DET), North Coast Institute of TAFE Outreach, Byron Bay and Mullumbimby High Schools, Byron Youth Service, Byron Youth Activities Centre, DESTination

Coping with happiness and its causes Sally Mathrick Languishing in my sickbed, I begin to reect on how happy I really am, and how happy we all actually are, as earthlings in 2007. The Happiness and Its Causes conference in Sydney has stimulated wonder about hedonia, (feeling good) and eudemonia (functioning well), about the 84,000 delusions of the mind and the learned tools that can create more enduring happiness. Mucous accumulates in my frontal sinuses, impeding my ability to breathe nasally and my lips begin to parch. I’m not feeling great, I’m feeling bad. This physical experience of ill health is not hedonically satisfying nor providing pleasant affect whatsoever. As for achieving the eudemonic happiness, my chances are higher. There are eleven signs to indicate Eudemonia, as detailed by Dr Corey Keyes. These are: being integrated into a group; being a part of growth and development; being accepting of others; having social interest; contributing to society; mastering your environment; accepting the self; involvement in positive relations; experiencing personal growth; autonomy; and hav-

ing purpose in life To ascertain whether or not you’re flourishing, according to Keyes, is having at least six eudemonic signs at high levels in life, as well as one hedonic sign, ie feeling satisďŹ ed or having positive affect in your life. Sadly, only 17% of adults in the USA are ourishing. This fact means the remaining 83% of adults will be

more likely to develop chronic illness, be less productive and less successful in their work, and be more likely to feel helplessness. One in every two US adults will have a mental illness in their life. According to the Beyond Blue website, one in ďŹ ve Australians experience depression in their lives. These are worrying facts. As I grab another hanky

and sip my YEP tea I realise I have all my needs met – warmth, shelter, food, clothing, uid and social support. Once the basic needs are met, Howard Cutler, who worked closely with HH Dalai Lama, assures us, then happiness depends on mostly inner conditions, and is determined mostly from state of mind. The training of the mind

towards happiness and positivity helps to create constructive emotion, which the Dalai Lama suggests, brings peace of mind. Developing an aptitude towards compassion is the starting point and indeed the bulk of being happy and extending happiness. Professor Richard Davidson from University of Wisconsin has shown that real physical change in structure of the brain takes place by attentively directing actions and thoughts. New neural pathways are formed through conscious effort and repetition. This tendency of the brain is called neuro-plasticity. We are creating everything as we go along. Sonja Lyubomirsky from the University of California ran a trial whereby participants would perform five random acts of kindness one day each week for ďŹ ve weeks, eg opening doors for strangers, putting coins in other people’s expired meters. By the end of the trial, there was a signiďŹ cant increase in levels of personal happiness of the participants. Helping others can lead to greater personal happiness. Personal happiness leads to helping others. People

who are happy help others more. People who don’t feel able to help are not as happy. Another clever study was performed whereby participants whose mood was boosted by ďŹ nding money in a phone booth were more likely to help a stranger who had dropped things, than one who didn’t get the boost. Cutler suggests that compassion is a practical tool to increase happiness and increase community connection. The personal effort invested to increase happiness, by developing unbiased compassion, leads to a natural altruism to increase the happiness in the nation. Another tool for creating enduring happiness is adopting the attitude of gratitude. Focus on what you do have, suggests Dr Tim Sharpe, Chief Happiness ofďŹ cer of the Happiness Institute in Sydney, rather than on what you don’t have. Q Naturopath Sally Mathrick of the North Coast Medical Centre is convenor of the Third Integrative Medicine Conference, on happiness and depression, at the Byron Bay Beach Resort.

Last year Darren Percival was at a crossroads. After years of performing as a vocalist with James Morrison, he knew that he wanted to do something solo. He didn’t want a band and he didn’t want to sit behind an instrument. That doesn’t leave a lot of options. At home when he was working out songs, or trying to rehearse he’d plug in his looping pedal and use it to create an informal soundscape to frame his work. Last year at the Bangalow Jazz Festival, he performed solo, a man and a pedal. And guess what? It worked. ‘I got such a great reaction at the Festival. It wasn’t just 10 people in a club, it was 300 plus people. Since I was 15 I have been going to comedy clubs and I have always been fascinated with what a comedian does. The ability to just walk on stage with nothing but a microphone. There is another process at work. As soon as I started doing it I experienced this freedom. I can do whatever I want to do musically. I can bring

everything down a couple of notes if I want to to suit the room, to adjust it to suit them in the same way a comic does.’ At the 2006 Bangalow Jazz Festival Mr Percival had an ephiphany. To move to Byron and record an album. ‘I didn’t have anything in my book so then I thought maybe I could live up there now, so I went to Sydney, got everything, rented a studio and moved. It was August 2006 and I started to record the album with Michael Bates at Nomad Digital in Possum Creek. I don’t think I would have been able to do it with anyone else. It was easy and fun and we had a great time recording. It was such a great experience. Usually when you are recording you are in a dungeon – it was an organic environment to make very organic music!’ Darren’s CD, titled Mr Percival, Out of the Loop has just been released through Vitamin Records. Like a lot of people searching for their next move, it

A Mr Percival show appeals to a broad demographic. This is something Darren holds as one of his most purposeful intentions.

The remarkable thing about Darren’s music is his ability to shape it with an audience. Each show is unique and involves a certain amount of audience participation. Mr Percival’s onstage warmth and enthusiasm is infectious as he breaks the fourth wall and chats informally with the crowd. A Mr Percival show is very much a dynamic conversation with an entire room, where every being is included. During his stay in Byron last year Darren was conducting regular workshops: Spontaneous Ensembleous. On his return he invites the 400 people plus who came through his workshop plus anyone else who is interested to a Sunday workshop at Coorabell Hall. 2pm-4pm. $10 (kids under 12 are free!)

‘I saw a Marcel Marceau show years ago and there was this poignant moment, and I stopped and looked at the people in front of me and there was a woman with her daughter and her mum. I thought, wouldn’t it be great to do something where you can have 3 generations in the one room?’

Mr Percival returns to launch his brand new CD, back in the fertile hills where it was ďŹ rst conceived! He plays Coorabell Hall on Saturday evening with a special performance by Shearwater band The Chills. Show starts at 8pm and is $15 at the door. Food available.

took Darren a while to realise he was already doing it. ‘I suppose after the Bobby McFarrin thing in 2004,’ Darren reected on his workshop with the legendary musical coach, ‘I realised I had to ďŹ nd something original about me or my voice... I thought, there is no way I am going to be plugging in the pedals! It seemed too easy! But since I’ve started it’s all been like this. I was talking about making the record last year and now I am doing interviews promoting it for 2 weeks. I didn’t know Vitamin was going to sign it, and they just came on board.’

the soapbox [ mandy nolan ]

THE REAL STRAIGHT EDGE I am never fully prepared for how straight people are. After nearly 17 years of living on the coast, I suppose I have developed a fairly warped sense of ‘normal’. Apparently we aren’t. Normal that is. We are bent. Thank God, Shiva, Shakti, Allah and every deity in every pantheon. As I approach the sweet sanctuary of forty I am at peace with my one true learning on this planet. Straight are scary. Straight people are dangerous and straight people should never be trusted. These days I consider myself pretty middle of the road. I no longer claim social security, I pay tax, I am married, I don’t drink or smoke, pop pills or indulge in bizarre group sex rituals. I have never put a foreign object up my bum... although I have thought about it from time to time. I brush my hair, I wear a

bra, and shoes. Sometimes I even bathe like that. I clean my nails. I delouse my kids and no longer get them to duck when the cops drive past. I recycle, I vote, I consume. I am a good little piggy. I always feel like I’m pretending to be an adult. Like a kid in dressups wandering around in oversized shoes. Being an adult always seems slightly fraudulent, like at some point an alarm will sound and I’ll be punished for the failure to fulďŹ ll my assigned role by being sent to bed without supper. I’ve just come back from a week’s holiday in Noosa with my husband and kids. It’s true, unlike Byron, Noosa hasn’t let herself go. The streets are well landscaped, the architecture is swankier, and they have luxuries like bins and parks. But it’s so straight. Everyone is so frightfully

well behaved, that I found it hard to resist ashing my right tit at a retired couple or mooning the 5 star diners in Hastings Street. It seems my family is poorly behaved. A Byron family is like an unmedicated ADHD child unrestrained in a lolly shop. I was sitting poolside with my children watching them play piggy in the middle. This is a wonderful game about exclusion and pork. An elderly granny seated a few deck chairs away gathered up her witless brood and hissed ‘Let’s go inside away from these noisy rude children.’ I was incensed. That’s just the sound of joy. I’m shocked that unrestrained happiness could be offensive. But I suppose, it is Queensland, the poor buggers have only just got necks and the capacity for critical thinking is still a few generations away.

(I can say that because I am a Queenslander. It’s not interstate bigotry, it’s reality... why do you think they choose to have Big Brother there?) I sat in a restaurant with my family. In the car we’d covered several topics of conversation including: is Dad a lesbian? Who goes to Hooters, and why women haven’t demanded their beverages be served by large balled men in tight shorts at an establishment named ‘Scroters’. My kids were the loudest in the restaurant. They dominated the conversation. They complained, they laughed, they fought and they demanded icecream. I noticed the other families. Nice quiet families with nice quiet children. Children who sat obediently at the table with daggy haircuts, tucked-in shirts and broken spirits. Children

There are two double passes up for grabs for the all ages hardcore Unearth gig at Byron High on Saturday from 6.30pm. Simply email mandypow@echo. net.au with the email header ‘Unearth’ and you will be in the running.

[ LIVE MUSIC ] * Hi music lovers, Hans here. Mandy is taking a holiday which is well deserved and needed. She kindly asked me to put together the music write up. I won’t pretend – this is harder than it looks, so no apologies for regurging a few releases here and there. It is a testament to her ability to be fresh every week. The order in which these musical acts appear in this article does not necessarily reect the order in which the editor feels are most important. Or do they?

TIM SLADDEN AND JIM KELLY Tim Sladden and Jim Kelly crank up the cultural notch this Saturday at the Ballina Hotel. If you like Vince Jones, you’ll love vocalist/trumpter Tim Sladden. The inspiring

supremo guitarist Jim Kelly will be accompanying him. Having personally performed these nights, I can attest to the fantastic warm supportive vibe from both management and patrons. We are truly lucky to have a venue prepared to do something different and promote something other than traditional ‘pub rock.’ It’s a pity this isn’t happening in Byron – any takers?

the violin at the Bela Bartok Conservatory of Music in Hungary. His career spans several decades and includes The Honved Ensemble (from 1967), a musical organisation which comprises a symphonic orchestra, a folk dance troupe, a choir and a gypsy orchestra. Antal Szalai will perform with his band of virtuoso soloists at the Byron Bay Community Centre on Tuesday, starting at 8pm.

keyboardist Steve Russell, guitarist Geoff Wright and saxophonist Tony Buchanan. Now living in Victoria, she has recently been thrilling audiences at the Brunswick Music Festival and the Boite Music CafÊ, among other places. And, like a good bottle of vino, her voice just gets better. Don’t miss her – it will be a top night. Doors open 7.30pm and tickets are $10.

who would one day have to agonise about coming out as gay, or who ended up fucked up as junkies or accountants. I guessed their car conversation would have been more in line with ‘Would Jesus have got the carpentry badge in boy scouts?’ and ‘What a jolly good chap Mr Howard is for taking booze off the blacks.’ I couldn’t stop staring at them. They were everywhere. Rigid straight people thinking nice neat thoughts inside nice neat lives. It was with an enormous relief that our tyres rolled onto the soft freaky bitumen of the North Coast. Weird roads. Chaotic roads. Fucked-up roads full of gloriously fucked up people. Home! That’s why people come here – it’s a welcome freaky oasis in a sea of straights.

‘Coastal cruise roots rock raga’ is how Ian Treloar and the Holy Cow describe their music. ‘The songs are beautiful, bittersweet views of life, luck, rusted cars, space junk, environmental political activism, third world ripoffs, surďŹ n’, travelling, demons, love, money and survival,’ says Ian. Having recently performed at the Apollo Bay Music Festival, The Holy Cow are road

Countless bands have been inspired by the abundance of radio-friendly hooks and choruses surfacing in today’s popular metalcore. Unearth are the exception. While other groups have been motivated to make their songs more commercial, Unearth have gone the opposite direction. The latest heavy offering from Unearth came in the form of III: In the Eyes of Fire, and for Australians, a brutal tour with Killswitch Engage and Lamb of God in 2006. This time Unearth headline a monster bill, alongside uncompromising Melbourne outďŹ t Mindsnare and Detroit hardcore band Walls of Jericho.

[ culture ] * FILM EAST OF EVERYTHING A master class will be held this Sunday by DOP (director of photography) Brendan Lavelle (Secret Life of Us, Mallboy) and Gaffer Steve Monk. They will discuss their roles and creative approach on the new ABC series East of Everything, culminating in a behind the scenes tour of the East of Everything set on location in Byron Bay. Brendan Lavelle answered a few questions by phone about his approaches to film making. How did you get interested film making? Who where are your influences? I started with still photography initially. Director Paul Cox was instrumental in getting me involved in film making about 20 years ago. As for influences, Vittorio Storaro, Haskell Wexler and Nestor Almendros are some of my heroes. I liked the simplicity and elegance of their work. They told the story and have European sensibility in their composition and construction. How different is film to TV? TV is so fast. As budgets decrease, the pressure is on to produce more footage per day. With feature films, finished screen time is usually a minute and a half, but TV is 11 minutes or more. One of the things I will talk about in the classes is methodolgy, being prepared and the logistics of working at that pace. What’s good advice for getting into the industry? In the 80’s there was a vibrant film industry and you could work for nothing to get started. Now you can’t do that. I didn’t do any film courses – but did a stills photography degree. I felt it was up to me. Over the years I have done all different jobs: assistant director, unit runner, catering etc. I am grateful now for all that experience. What’s the latest technology you are using

and why? We use Super 16 film. It’s endangered because HD is more popular, though it has a quality look. We wanted to get the maximum visual quaity from this environment. Film definitely has an edge. Places are limited for this exciting workshop and preference given to Screenworks members so don’t miss out and contact the office now to secure a place. The workshop is Sunday July 15, 11am at the Byron Bay Beach Resort. Cost is $30/$40 non members. Ph 6687 1599

THEATRE THE UGLY DUCKLING PANTOMIME This classic story has touched the hearts of everyone over the years, and Shirley Gay’s script is no exception. In true Firetrax style the audience will be asked to join in and help the characters to trick and elude the crocodile and get up and join in with the songs and dancing. At the end of the show comes the ever popular ‘hug’ session. In Firetrax Theatre Company’s latest pantomime The Ugly Duckling, Aunty Frog played by Estelle Clapham has rather a lot to cope with. This is a show for the whole family to enjoy, and performances are at Bangalow A&I Hall on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. All shows are at 2pm. Tickets are available at the door and prices are $6 for children, adults $9, family (4 or more) at $6/head. For bookings and enquiries phone Firetrax on 6687 1998.

NOT LIKE BECKETT Michael Watt’s unique play is a raw, razor-sharp and dangerously funny reflection on the colonization of Australia and its impact on our society and our culture. Not Like Beckett is a playful allegory, exploring the light and dark shades of human nature – what it is to love and what it is to be human, albeit in a ‘bunny’ sort of way. Not Like Beckett is irreverent, energetic and tough whilst being poignant and insightful. The show will play at the Star Court Theatre in Lismore from July 26 to July 28. Bookings and information at www.norpa.org.au

Helena Bonham Carter and Edward Norton face off in Fight Club (NBN, Friday, midnight). Nine has taken to screening halfway decent movies this week; trouble is they are all on extremely late.

and the subjunctive mood. It struggles to ďŹ nd the poignancy that it did in the theatre, but (gasp!) it makes you think, and there’s nothing wrong with that. John Campbell

OCEAN’S THIRTEEN

THE HISTORY BOYS I had the great good fortune of seeing this play in Sydney last year. I loved it so much that I went out and bought Untold Stories, the memoir of its writer, Alan Bennett, and, upon reading it, felt I had a better understanding of Hector, the central character of the story. It is about a group of exceptional students who are swatting to get into Oxford or Cambridge. Hector has been their mentor as well as their molester, an old fashioned master who loves knowledge for its own sake. Irwin represents the new breed. He will tutor the boys in being original in their exam and impressing at their interviews. Bennett makes it more than just a simple clash between substance and style, for he gives both men equal time and convincing arguments, but somehow it is not as compelling as it was on stage. For a start, many scenes have been taken out of the classroom and the fresh air tends to diminish the ardour of debate. The same cast is used and herein was my problem. I was uncomfortable with Richard

GrifďŹ ths in the lead role when I ďŹ rst saw him and was even more so this time. He is simply too fat and unattractive to illicit the sympathy that the character deserves. I realise how awful it is to say that, but think of the screen teachers who have won our hearts over the years; Robert Donat’s Mr Chipps, Sidney Poitier’s ‘Sir,’ Robin Williams’s ‘captain, my captain’ and, most recently, Julia Roberts in the marvellous ‘Mona Lisa Smile’ – all of them had charisma in spades. GrifďŹ ths doesn’t and his casting is probably more than anything a reection of the perverse nature of his creator. I was relieved to enjoy it as much as I did, though. For sure, there is stuff that simply does not work on ďŹ lm – a sequence in which the boys act out a transaction in a bordello, speaking dog French throughout, is hilarious on stage but here it is less so, feeling strained and overlong. Nevertheless, the movie is not afraid to be concerned with ideas, deal unpatronisingly with homosexuality and even make jokes about gerunds

Ocean’s Thirteen has gone back to basics. This is a stripped-down, plotoriented heist movie where character development and interpersonal interaction have been set aside in order to keep the story racing. The end result might be a foregone conclusion, but the fascination comes from watching the contortions necessary to get there and guess what will happen next to propel events forward. With the exception of a few opening scenes designed to inform us what an utter bastard Willie Bank (Pacino) is, Ocean’s Thirteen is all about the Big Caper. In this case, it’s to ruin Willie, who is opening a new Vegas Casino using land and money bilked from Reuben Tishkoff (Elliott Gould). Reuben has a heart attack as a result of his treatment at Willie’s hands and now the gang led by Danny Ocean (George Clooney), Rusty Ryan (Brad Pitt), and Linus Caldwell (Matt Damon) wants revenge. The Oceans movies have always been a lark for director Stephen Soderbergh and his stars, and nothing has changed this time around for this modern-day Rat Pack. Rumor has it there won’t be an Ocean’s Fourteen, but the way these guys enjoy playing off one another and tossing around one-liners, it can’t be ruled out. Lounge Cinema

CLUBLAND Tim: ‘Can I kiss you?’ Jill: ‘Can you wait till I ďŹ nish my mouthful?’ Clubland is a comedic, mostly honest look at the trials of ďŹ rst-time love and the devastating effects of a domineering mother. Tim’s (Khan Chittenden) mum, Jean (Brenda Blethyn) is a British comedienne whose star has faded. She now ips burgers in a canteen in the ’burbs of Sydney where she lives with her sons, Tim and the mentally handicapped Mark. Jean is now heavily reliant on her boys to give her the kind of adoration she once received from fans. But when Tim meets Jill (Emma Booth), a take-charge chick, Jean is mortiďŹ ed to see her virginal son falling for another woman. A threeway love affair ensues with Jean increasingly losing her grip. The results are very funny. Muriel’s Wedding is an obvious comparison but I don’t know that this is such a classic. Tim’s original coyness isn’t quite believable and there are the usual attempts to prove how weird Tim’s family is, but much can be forgiven when a movie makes you laugh so consistently. Clubland co-stars ex-Byron gal, Katie Wall (Noise) and Frankie J. Holden as Tim’s one-hit wonder muso dad, now working security at Coles. It’s not a surprising story but the characters do behave in surprisingly honest ways. Clubland is a heart-warming, mainstream comedy that may have you misting up at the musical ďŹ nale.

TAURUS: It’s not your preferences that are causing problems, it’s your attachment to them. No idea, possession, situation, relationship, responsibility or habit is permanent, as this week will show. Getting comfortable with change is the only way to enjoy it.

YO! MERCURY’S OUT OF RETROGRADE AND NOW THERE’S LOTS OF ENERGY AVAILABLE TO SUPPORT WORTHY CANCERIAN CAUSES. AS THIS WEEK’S CANCERIAN BIRTHDAY ENVIRONMENTALIST BUCKMINSTER FULLER OBSERVED: EITHER WAR IS OBSOLETE OR PEOPLE ARE‌

ARIES: While Mercury moving forward gives personal issues a more positive spin, excessive behaviour of any kind (overspending, rushing, getting worked up) will throw you off course. Being of service helps you see things from a more sympathetic perspective.

GEMINI: Geminis soak up incoming information like wettex, and with your ruling planet Mercury now out of retrograde all that data you’ve amassed will deďŹ nitely give you the inside edge to inuence events in your favour. Be mindful of people’s feelings though. CANCER: His Cancerian Holiness the Dalai Lama has the best advice going for this week’s astral conditions: Don’t let a little dispute injure a great friendship. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation – don’t bring up the past. LEO: Recent ďŹ scal frustrations seem set to take a turn up the j-curve this week, when unexpected windfalls are possible. You’ll get most successful results by revising

Ă€Âœ>`L>˜`ĂŠ

LIBRA: As Mercury moves forward, a seemingly insurmountable issue does a three-sixty degree turnaround. And you get this week’s popularity vote for the calming, harmonizing effect you continually have in the family circle, the commercial world, among friends‌ SCORPIO: Like this week’s birthday person O.J. Simpson, what you see isn’t all there is. You born detectives will enjoy the case of investigating this week’s mystery side, but don’t limit yourself to playing cool observer – let others see the hottie you really are. SAGITTARIUS: In their eternal search for understanding, Sagittarians aren’t afraid to ask

CAPRICORN: All negotiations beneďŹ t from a personal touch this week. This is a time for establishing close bonds from which you gain as much emotional support as you give. Others won’t respond well to pressure, will need to be appreciated and understood. AQUARIUS: This week Tibetan buddhists honor Yama, god of the underworld, which is where air signs like yourself might feel you’ve ventured if strained relations turn hellish. Just kidding, it isn’t really that bad – but expect some intense adventures in the emotional zone. PISCES: This week it’s okay to bring something you haven’t wanted to talk about for fear of causing pain into the open. Others are more receptive than they have been, but tread gently all the same – it’s still a period when emotional overload’s only a breath away.

IN THE RED Ho r a t i o Bi t e m a r k An owl dressed as a wizard is perhaps not the ďŹ rst thing one wishes to see before breakfast but so it was when I took my morning constitutional along Tyagarah Road before joining the others at the Myocum clubhouse. I had just narrowly avoided a collision with a pheasant coucal which had darted out precipitously onto the road verge, panicked, and bolted up into the bushes. My eye followed its ight until it merged with the wilderness and there, in the fork of a camphor laurel, was the owl. It had white plumage and a resemblance to a barn owl; from then on its connection to reality diverged: a blue cape covered its back and a blue pointy hat decorated with stars adorned its head. It blinked, I blinked back. There seemed nothing further it wished to convey so I continued on to the clubhouse. The chaps seemed unfazed as I recounted my experience. ‘Probably a stuffed toy,’ offered Bosworth.

A tablespoon of butter was then melted into the frying pan and the egg mixture added. Chef then scattered a handful of grated parmesan throughout it, waited until the mixture began to set and then rufed the eggs with a at wooden spoon. As the eggs formed into harder portions, Chef ipped them about, adding a dash of cracked pepper and a spring of parsley, took them from the heat and slid them onto a Wedgewood willow pattern plate.

And by the time I returned to the dining room the chaps were tucking into the Sally Bowles Life Is A Cabernet Cabernet, redolent of black leather and 1930s Berlin, hinting at currywurst and imminent oppression.

The only course of action was to calm my nerves with scrambled eggs. It would take some persuasion to have Chef include parmesan cheese in mine, as he is a stickler for the simple method, no additives. I took the stairs down to the kitchen, all the while hoping that among the statuettes in rococo niches decorating the stone walls I would not spot an owl clothed or unclothed, either blinking or engaged in feats of legerdemain. If an owl were to pull something from a top hat, what would it be? A plump mouse, I’d wager.

I sighed in relief as this display of virtuosity. Life seemed normal again. Rather than iname the culinary passions of the chaps, I took my eggs and joined a couple of the sous-chefs at a wooden table, where they were playing the African game Umbobo which, rather than move seeds or stones about, requires the player to guess the middle name of whichever relative the opponent is thinking about, second cousins excluded. By the time I had ďŹ nished my eggs, James was up three uncles over Dawkins.

‘Will under the right conditions,’ said Abbotsleigh, tapping on the table with a silver fork, ‘perhaps you should go a little easier on the entheogens.’ This from a chap who once spent three days upside down in a bell tower talking to a spider.

He heated a large frying pan. In a glass mixing bowl he skillfully whisked three eggs with three teaspoons of low-fat milk and a dash of salt, and then put aside the mixture to settle.

‘Stuffed toys do not blink,’ I replied.

‘Ah Mr Bitemark,’ said Chef, immediately realising why I was there.

But what little gems they are! Not really a snack food, they are more a culinary ingredient, a little like a spice, but with depth and texture too. Roasted or toasted their character changes enticingly, but they are probably best known raw in Pesto, the traditional Genoese paste combining basil with olive oil, garlic, fresh parmesan and pine nuts, the latter providing their own seam of creamy lusciousness. (The word ‘pesto’ derives from the Italian verb ‘pestare’ which means to crush or grind, so ‘pesto’ is essentially the resultant pulp of any pounded ingredients.) They are extremely oily and contain the highest amount of protein of any nut or seed. Because of these characteristics they go rancid quickly, and should (as all nuts should) be stored in the refrigerator. But then most people who buy pine nuts do so because of a recipe in mind – or because their basil crop has exploded and some serious food-processing lies ahead. Most of my favourite recipes involving pine nuts are for savoury dishes; not surprisingly they are Italian, and a large number of them from the south where the Moorish inuence meant the inclusion, in many dishes, of nuts and fruit. My best sardine recipe, for example, calls for pine nuts and sultanas in the stufďŹ ng – and a gorgeous way to serve spinach is to saute it in garlicky olive oil together with sultanas and pine nuts. In a recent cooking class our group devoured with rapture a Silverbeet Torta: a savoury cake composed of wilted silverbeet, softened onion, eggs, raisins and loads of freshly grated parmesan baked till ďŹ rm.

I recently made a Pear and Pine Nut Polenta Cake, seduced as much by the alliteration as by the combination of ingredients. Below, for the plethora of gluten-intolerant sufferers this Shire boasts, is its recipe. It is very easy, and looks lovely – a low cake with a gilded crown of pear slices and scattered nuts – but it reminded me of another traditional Italian cake, the Castagnaccia made out of chestnut our, unyieldingly, relentlessly dense. Above all it reminded me how much I love gluten.

A thin little made-up character with a very long nose shares the name of this nut in some parts of Italy. Pinocchio is just one of its appellations – and it is not actually a nut at all, but the edible seed of the pine cone. A cone from a particular type of pine, moreover; of the many species that exist, only about twelve bear seeds worth harvesting, and most of the harvesting comes from two particular varieties, the Mediterranean or Italian, and the stronger-avoured Chinese. Pine nuts cost the earth in terms of extraction – the ridding the slender little pod of its shell – and the process requires heat and time. Trees start to bear a crop after 6-10 years and the harvesting is done using a hook on a long pole to pull cones containing the nuts from the tree. The cones are then spread out to dry in the sun, at which point the nuts are supposed to just fall out, though often need to be threshed in order for this to happen, and then hulled – this is what makes them so very valuable, in other words expensive.

Sweet-wise, my friend Susannah recalls with fond nostalgia some buttery shortbreads she ate in Spain, whose tops were all pine nuts. I have not eaten these, and my fond nostalgia is rather for the heavenly tart called Torta della Nonna, or grandmother’s tart, found in nearly every local pastry shop in Florence and in many of the smaller trattorias: a biscuity shell sealing in a voluptuous vanilla custard and scattered with pine nuts and sometimes slivered almonds as well, dredged thickly in snowy icing sugar.

PEAR AND PINE NUT POLENTA CAKE Mix together 250 gr. polenta (not instant), 230 gr. sugar and 1 tspn crushed cardamon pods. Melt 135 gr. butter then add to it 400 mls. milk. Bring to the boil then pour over the polenta mix and leave to stand for about 10 mins so that it absorbs the milk – use a whisk to blend everything well. Add 3 lightly beaten eggs and incorporate thoroughly – it will be quite liquid. Pour into a greased springform pan. Peel and thinly slice one large ripe pear and scatter the slices over the batter together with 3-5 tblspns pine nuts, then bake in a pre-heated 175˚C oven for 45-50 mins or until done.

Sports Roundup with John Campbell

Byron spirit bedevils Ballina Story and photo John Campbell Sunday’s NRRRL game between Byron Bay and the competition high flyers, Ballina, was a critical one for the home side. Clinging to a spot in the top ďŹ ve on for and against, Byron had shown indifferent form in recent weeks, losing at home to Casino and doing their best to squander a thirty point lead at Kyogle. A slipup at this point of the season would have put them in a real dog fight to stay in contention for the semis. They started inauspiciously. Ballina were sharper from the outset and the Red Devils’ prospects were dented severely when tough prop Reece Vincent was put out of proceedings with a dislocated elbow. Shortly after, the visitors scored for a 6-0 lead and from the resumption Byron kicked out on the full. Not good. The boys looked at and in need of inspiration. It

came with the air of Jarred de Thier r y when he threaded his way through the defence for a ďŹ ne solo try next to the uprights. The remainder of the ďŹ rst stanza seemed to be played mostly in the Devils’ half and Ballina were unlucky to knock on over the line in the thirty-ďŹ fth minute. The let off was gold for Byron, for within a couple of sets they found their way to the opposition’s red zone and, after some beautiful off loads, Clarence Kelly went over in the corner. Byron took a 10-6 lead into the sheds and with it a pronounced sense that they were up for the victory. Ballina showed at the start of the second forty why they were leading the comp, playing with composure and again dominating territory. But they had to work hard for a converted try and at 12-10 the game clearly was still there for the taking. It was now or never for the Bay and in the last twenty

minutes they lifted and played with admirable grit. Full back Ryan O’Connell spun around like a top before flicking the ball to David Strachan whose try in the corner gave the Bay a two point lead. The sensational sideline conversion by David Black was well received by an increasingly vocal crowd and not long after substitute centre Dwayne Cahill bustled over and Black’s extras made it 22-12 with ten to go. Byron would not be denied and when they thwarted one last Ballina raid, which would not have affected the result, the high ďŹ ves were indicative of the camaraderie that contributed to the win. The talent has always been there and on Sunday the Devils revealed that they possess the required ticker to complement it. The club might attract bigger support for its team, though, if it discouraged the foul mouthed yobbishness of the young drongoes who gathered on the western hill.

Young talent shines at gromfest

The north wall at Ballina provided excellent surf at the Rusty Gromfest. The world’s most prestigious event for young surfers lived up to its reputation, with the emer-

gence of Margaret River surfer Jack Robertson in the 12 Boys a highlight. A number of local surfers also performed with distinction, including Suffolk Park’s

Summer too far away

The eyes have it. The Red Devils’ prop Ashley Lanfranchi looks for support after receiving the ball from five eighth Nathan ‘Penguin’ Cross .

Champs’ defence ounders Fred Bushell A long road trip to play tough hosts is the last thing that a team looks forward to when its self-conďŹ dence has been dented. But it is what confronted the Byron Bay Rams last Saturday. Premier league champions and winners of the ANZAC Cup, they have fallen off the pace in season 2007 and their hold on the title is slipping. Undermanned and without a win since they beat Lennox Head 4-2 on June 7, the Rams would have been hoping that their return match with Maclean might have seen them rediscover the touch they exhibited in the earlier rounds. A 6-3 defeat of the Bobcats when they travelled up the coast

had become a distant memory for the Rams and as their fortunes declined so had their hosts’ improved. Most ominously, Maclean was undefeated at home. Byron Bay got off to a good if fortunate start when they were gifted an own goal. Shortly before half time, however, the Rams defender Sam Clarke fouled in the box when he deliberately hand balled a Bobcats’ shot that was headed to the back of the net and was sent from the field for his trouble. The ensuing penalty was converted and with the scores locked 1-1 at the break, Byron coach Peter Ware would have realised that his troops were in a bit of strife. There was no lack of char-

acter shown by the boys when they returned to the field but, remarkably, Maclean got their second, winning goal through identical circumstances when a ball was handled in the penalty area. Try hard though they did, the Rams could not ďŹ nd the equaliser and, going down 1-2, have now found themselves seriously under threat of not making the play-offs. Meanwhile, in Bangalow, the Bluedogs have registered their ďŹ rst home win of the season and lifted themselves well clear of the cellar dwellers with a decisive 4-3 win over Ballina, albeit having to survive a resurgence from the visitors which saw them come back from 1-4.

Brian Mollet Devotees of perhaps the strangest stick and ball game, cricket*, in Byron Shire have the Nick Shand Memorial Cricket Series to satiate their inner need to hit out at something with a stick and remain on the good side of the law. The credo of the competition, like that of Mr Shand, is everybody gets a fair go and as playing standards encompass the full range between genuinely gifted and obviously still enthusiastic, the local game allows players to seek their own level of challenge and the emphasis is on having a good day. So keen were Ed the witchdoctor and Snakebite Pete to see the series underway that they carried out a very effective repair job on the councilrun Lomath Oval pitch a couple of days before the match with no more than some liquid nails and the knowledge that maintenance on that wellused facility has been pending for a long time. Sunday’s opening match was between bush battlers Left Bank and swaggering sixtime champs Main Arm. Left Bank won the toss and decided to bat with the Armers undermanned as stalwart Bourkey had blown himself up during the week, some said as a political statement, others that it was the unfortunate result of smoking and snifďŹ ng petrol at the same time. Beset by more late withdrawals than a Catholic father of fourteen the Main Arm team nonetheless hit the ground with a head of steam, Khan, Lons, and skipper Greg razing the top order to the

Sports Roundup with John Campbell

Put ’em in the scuppers with a hosepipe on ’em John Campbell It was not exactly a case of ‘hold the presses!’ when news arrived at the sports desk of the Swiss boat Alinghi’s successful defence of the America’s Cup against Team New Zealand last week. I know that there are yachties out there who are as passionate about their pastime as I am about the fate of the mighty South Sydney Rabbitohs, but honestly, who gives a rat’s? Once upon a time, there was an ineradicable link between a sport and the culture in which it ourished. ‘Rocket’ Rod Laver, Ken ‘Muscles’ Rosewall and a generation of Aussies dominated the world of professional tennis for years because they grew up in an environment where the game was played everywhere and was accessible to any kid who fancied having a bash. Australians played tennis like the Scots ate chip butties. Nowadays you have automatons coming through academies in places like Russia where the average punter might survive a hundred miserable winters without ever seeing a tennis court, let alone wandering

down to one for a few sets on a Sunday arvo. And the Dutch have swimmers who hold world records! That landlocked Switzerland should ďŹ nd itself at the pinnacle of ocean racing is no longer as bizarre as it once might have been. According to Wikipedia, the contest for what has come to be known as The Auld Mug is the oldest ‘active trophy’ in international sport. People of unseemly riches have been competing for it since a New York syndicate won it from the Poms, when it was known as the Royal Yacht

Squadron Cup, in a race around the Isle of Wight in 1851. It has since become sport’s golden calf. Time and again a challenger would emerge, only to be sent packing by the boats and crews of the good burghers of New England. It is, perhaps, the ultimate symbol of privilege and indulgence but, as far as I’m concerned, watching yachts race is about as inspiring as listening to Philip Ruddock explain the niceties of Our Government’s imprisonment of children behind razor wire. In fact, the whole tedious regatta might easily be

seen as a symbol of the grotesque wealth, wastefulness and ‘let them eat cake’ mentality of the West. Can you imagine the horror if those fleets of refugees ever found the currents to carry their overcrowded, unseaworthy vessels into the serene and self satisfied waters of Newport, Rhode Island? Which is not to say that in 1983 I did not expose myself to be the hypocrite that I am, for I really wanted Australia II to beat Liberty. It was one of those intensely nationalistic moments that many of us,

blokes especially, are unable to resist. A similar eruption of playground pride occurred when Sydney was awarded the 2000 Olympic Games. I was less than ecstatic and, being the curmudgeon that I am, ed to India when the circus hit town. But I will never forget the sight of the former Bulldogs centre and the then Premier of NSW, John Fahey, going apeshit, as though he’d just won all the pies at a Big Ben picnic. It was so unedifying and so typical of a country that is on the make. It was also a clear and uninhibited letting of an emotion most eloquently ennunciated by Royce Simmons at the conclusion of the 1991 rugby league grand ďŹ nal. The team he captained, the Penrith Panthers, were the traditional whipping boys of the comp. Westies destined to be losers. But that day they beat the star studded Canberra side for the club’s ďŹ rst title. Battered and bruised, Royce was asked while still on the ďŹ eld how it felt. ‘We’re somebody now,’ he said. Australia is a bit like that, forever craving a place at the

table with the big boys. It is sport that has most often provided the invitation and when John Bertrand steered Australia II across the line I suddenly found myself not immune to the exhilaration that swept the Wide Brown. Who cared if it all came about because of an obsession of the grubby, forgetful millionaire Alan Bond? That we were the ďŹ rst to wrench the prize from the hosts after 132 years of others trying was a bonus that swelled our hearts even more. (We were also the ďŹ rst to win one out of the seven races when Frank Packer’s Gretel did it in 1962.) Normally content with making mountains of money as bankers to absconded dictators, the Swiss will have doubtless received the victory with more aplomb.

ONENESS BLESSING EVENT

July 22nd TEMPLE BYRON, 4-6pm The Oneness Blessing (also known as Deeksha) is like a tuning fork. It aligns us with the unique Divine expression residing in us all. In time it initiates the owering of the heart, diminishes any sense of separation and naturally leads to an awakening to the oneness with all that is. Up to 20 Blessing givers will gather to share this amazing phenomenon with you. Please join us and receive the Blessing, in an afternoon of meditation, accompanied by a musical journey led by Yantra, Asakti & friends. WHERE : Temple Byron, Melaleuca Drive off Ewingsdale Rd. TIME : 4 to 6pm (Doors open 3.30pm, close 4pm sharp) BRING : a cushion, blanket & water. ENTRY : $20 This is a child-free event Further info : 0439118733 ★ SEAMSTRESS ★ Custom Clothing, Alterations, Costumes Phone Amber 0413023631 AT LAST Lyanne and Simeon Open

Not everyone was absolutely thrilled with the opening of the Bruns-Yelgun highway section, and plenty of protesting was to be had on the day. No doubt more visitors will be coming our way, and more monster trucks. There are a few rogue truck drivers out there – see report on roadside vigil in news pages – ruining the reputation of the industry and the sooner their companies weed them out the better. If you’ve been monstered by a truck driver, you can now record it online at www. coasttocoast100.com.au. Let the cops know, too. Q Q Q Q Starting this week in Mungo’s column we present a series of portraits of the bloke himself painted for the inaugural FEHVA and Byron Bay Writers Acquisitive Portrait Prize. This week’s is by Robert Bice, who took the ďŹ rst prize of $1,000. The other ďŹ nalists were Nescha Morden, Camilla Connolley, Peter Keil, Susan Jacobsen, and Marggie Farrell. Q Q Q Q One of the Shire’s culinary institutions, Fins at the Beach Hotel, has closed down and chef Steven Snow, aka Snowy, is concentrating on his business Fins@Salt on the Tweed coast. Apparently the parting of ways with new Beachy owners the Van Haandels was amicable. Before the Beachy, Snowy had been culinarising ďŹ sh since the year dot at such notable joints as the Rails, the Bruns, and the original Fins next to the old Bruns bridge, where the Echo drudges used to congregate for many happy evenings among the mangroves (as well as celebrating a semi-nude birthday at the Bruns, recorded in David Lovejoy’s memoir Between Dark and Dark). Happy travels, Snowy. Q Q Q Q Local singer with The Hot-

Billinudgel held its own ‘official/unofficial’ opening of the new highway. The town’s ‘mayor’ and publican Ken Barnham moved to cut the ribbon but was beaten to it by Paul DeGroot mimicking the scandalous incident at the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge all those years ago. Maybe now getting into Billinudgel will be less like negotiating a maze. Photo Peter King

tentots and choir leader, Parissa Bouas, has just returned from a really cool (read freezing cold) weekend of singing workshops in Canberra. Parissa was commissioned by the Canberra group Music For Everyone to lead singers in some Greek songs from the Ionian Islands, as part of their Mediterranean Music program, along with Linsey Pollack and Ilias Ellis. A new ten week term begins for the Byron Community Choir on Tuesday July 17 at the Byron Yoga Centre. Contact 6680 8878 Q Q Q Q Purveyors of ďŹ ne condoms to the gentry, Durex wants 200 candidates to test a range of condoms and give feedback. You will need to have sex to participate – we’re not sure if a partner is necessary. See the website www.durex.com. au for details. We doubt that it will rank as one of the Worst Jobs in History.
