Anyone who has been to a festival of any kind will know that they couldn’t happen without a dedicated team of volunteers. The Byron Bay Writers Festival is no exception. About 130 volunteers will be running the marquees and supervising events at the twelfth annual festival.

One such volunteer, Karin Kolbe, who is also busily running for Council, has given her time at at least six festivals.

Kolbe told The Echo, ‘There is so much to like about volunteering at the Writers Fest. I love the actual physical setting – sitting in the sun, talking, sharing ideas, and getting to know the works of writers you previously didn’t have a connection to. The festival is a smorgas-

bord of words and ideas and such an amazing showcase for so many local writers.’

Duncan Fitzgerald returned to volunteer at the Writers Festival this year after enjoying his virgin volunteer experience so much last year.

Fitzgerald said, ‘Volunteering in a tent is a fantastic way to see the festival. I have sat through things that wouldn’t have automatically appealed to me and thoroughly enjoyed them.

‘I love that you are always meeting new people, likeminded people. I write short stories, and from a writer’s perspective I am so full of ideas when I get home, I start churning out more stories.

Fitzgerald, like so many volunteers, got involved after first being

drawn to the festival as a punter.

‘There was a special event I was interested in a few years back so I bought a ticket. I realised then what an inspiring little festival it is and I wanted to get further involved.’

First time Writers Festival volunteer but career volunteer coordinator Shelley Sellors told The Echo, ‘After having organised volunteers at so many festivals for so many years I felt it was time to return to being an actual volunteer to remind myself of why people give their free time.

‘To me, volunteering is about being a part of something bigger than oneself. You are an intrinsic part of a festival with a community base.

‘Volunteers play a key role

between the staff and the festival goers, you feel a sense of attachment to the proceedings and pride in seeing it unfold. With the inside view that you get as a volunteer you realise how much work goes into these events.

‘I always think, “Wow, this is massive, people have worked really hard to make this happen.” It is such a personally expansive experience.’

The Byron Bay Writers Festival runs throughout this coming weekend (July 25-27) with workshops already under way.

Council GM slams Splendour comments Byron Shire general manager Graeme Faulkner has ‘rejected out of hand’ comments made by North Byron Shire Parklands (Parklands) in a media release last week.

According to Mr Faulkner, Parklands inferred that Council had caused undue delay in assessing a Parklands development application in 2006 for a trial festival in both 2007 and 2008 and was causing further delay in relation to a development application for a Splendour in the Grass festival in 2009.

The development application lodged by Parklands for the 2007 festival was withdrawn by Parklands ‘after a great deal of limited Council resources had been applied to process their request; resources which could have been easily applied to other applicants,’ Mr Faulkner said.

‘In February 2008 staff were about to report on assessment of the DA for the proposed 2008 festival when Parklands abandoned it, informing Council that they would be amending their application and, at the time, issuing a media release stating that they “still had more work to do”.

‘The current DA being considered by Council was amended as late as March this year by the applicant and consequently placed back out on exhibition during April-May 2008.

‘The complexity of the DA itself required referral to a large number of government agencies including the Rural Fire Service, Department of Primary Industries, Department of Planning, Roads and Traffic Authority, Department of Environment and Climate Change, National Parks, and the NSW Police among others, with all agencies’ consequential commentary and requests for further information being relayed to the applicant for comment prior to Council finalising a position on the matter.’

Story & photo Eve Jeffery Students at Mullumbimby High have been learning to ‘Talk the Story and Walk the Story’ through Yarnup, an educational and outreach program which takes the award winning Australian documentary ďŹ lm Kanyini into schools, then takes the experience of the ďŹ lm a step further.

Kanyini is a story told by an Aboriginal man, Bob Randall or ‘Uncle Bob’, who lives beside the greatest monolith in the world, Uluru in Central Australia.

Based on Bob’s own personal journey and the wisdom he learnt from the old people living in the bush, Kanyini tells the tale of why Indigenous people are now struggling in a modern world and what needs to be done for Indigenous people to move forward.

So far more than 1500 Australian schools have Kanyini on their school library shelves, the idea is to use the ďŹ lm through the Yarnup program, as a base to kick-start a relationship between the school and the local Indigenous community.

The overall aim of the Yarnup program is to connect Australian students with their local Indigenous community through friendship

Year 10 students Angeline and Bianca, far right, with local elder Athol Compton and Charmaine Daniels get in a bit of Yarnup practice before the big event next Tuesday.

and sees students have a screening of Kanyini at the school, then inviting the local Indigenous community to the screening – Talk the Story. Students also embark on an excursion with the local Aboriginal people to learn more about the local area and culture – Walk the Story.

The students submit a visual document of their own Yarnup experience in the form of artwork, photographs, short ďŹ lm or music which shows the growing

friendship between the community and the school. The most heartfelt expression wins a visit to the school by Bob Randall.

The Mullum High students will screen the ďŹ lm next Tuesday at 5.30pm in the school hall and they are inviting everyone in the community to join them for a Yarnup, to listen and talk to a panel of elders and see a performance by Dinahwan and the Deadly Dancers.

Entry is by gold coin donation and funds raised

on the evening will go towards the making of their mixed media project which will be entered into the Yarnup competition.

Local News Artist’s generosity benefits locals

Internationally renowned artist Ken Done recently visited the Northern Rivers in his role as patron of the Grafton Regional Arts Gallery and as a guest speaker at the FEHVA Visual Arts Festival in Bangalow, hosted by The Buttery.

During his visit, not only was Ken interested in the work that The Buttery does to assist those seeking recovery from addiction but he was also touched by the story he read in the Sydney Morning Herald about Rich-

ard Allen, a Bangalow Rugby player who became a quadriplegic following an on field accident.

Ken very generously donated two of his prints, one to the Richard Allen Recovery Fund to help finalise building work on a specially designed and equipped new home for Richard and his family and one to The Buttery to contribute to their goal of building the New Buttery – a centre of excellence in recovery from addiction.

Visit www.richardallen.

com.au and www.buttery. org.au to find out more about their respective building projects.

The Buttery’s print ‘Coral Head IV’ is for sale and will be on exhibition at The Harvest Café in Newrybar (or call Lelli on 6687 1623).

Richard Allen’s print ‘Helmut Shell’ will also go under the hammer. Interested parties are urged to contact the Recovery Fund at 14Fund@richardallen. com.au or phone Richard Kelly on 0415 773 064.

Have your say on draft bike plan At an Ordinary Meeting on June 26, Byron Shire Council resolved to adopt and exhibit the Draft Byron Shire Bike Strategy and Action Plan (Bike Plan) and seek written public comment by August 7. Mayor Jan Barham said the Draft Bike Plan is an important outcome for the shire.

‘It seeks to achieve a bet-

ter, bigger and safer bike network that is connected and integrated into our existing network and public spaces. The plan is targeted in its approach, having had the value of the community committee input to ensure that bike routes and facilities respond to the needs of cyclists,’ the Mayor said.

DoL orders boats off beach NSW Dept of Lands has ordered boat owners to remove all watercraft stored on the river front beach adjacent to Memorial Park in Brunswick Heads.

For the past few years people have been leaving small boats, canoes and surfskis chained to banksia trees on the beach. Between 20-30 have accumulated and many don’t appear to have been used recently. The watercraft are damaging regrowth and obstruct the only shaded area on the beach, which is often frequented by families with young children.

DOL will be impounding any craft left on the beach after July 15. A small sign has been erected on the beach by DOL to inform boat owners, who can contact DOL on 6640 3416.

Submissions to DOL have detailed the need for a secure boat storage area for nonpowered watercraft. Boat storage may be included in DOL’s Foreshore Management Plan to be released in coming weeks.

Fashion?

The determination of Woolworths S96 application for its proposed supermarket in Mullumbimby may well hinge on the technical assessment as to the adequacy of the site to support onsite sewage management, according to local activists.

A crucial factor in that assessment is the ability of the site’s receiving soil to contain the nutrients, pathogens and the hydraulic load emanating from the treatment system, says Mullum wastewater engineer Duncan Dey. Saying that Byron Shire Council, Woolworths consultant BRW or the NSW Department of Planning appear not to have undertaken soil testing, Mr Dey and colleague Garry Scott did so last Thursday. Mr Dey drilled a 75mm hole to

a depth of over one metre in the centre of the area that appears, from plans submitted to NSW Planning, to be Woolworths’ latest proposed sewage disposal area.

Dey and Scott noted that vegetation on most of the Station Street site and within what appears to be the Woolworths disposal area includes a considerable number of sedges. Samples of two of these sedges were taken to local wetland ecologist Jo Green for identiďŹ cation.

One type was Cyperus polystachyos and the other likely to be Baumea sp. Both are indicative of swamp conditions and of soils that are for considerable times 100% saturated, according to Dey and Scott ‘The clay is riddled with ferrous staining know as striations, rust marks caused

by moisture lying in the soil matrix for long periods without moving – the moisture corrodes the iron content of the soil,’ Mr Dey told The Echo. ‘Ferrous staining indicates long-term saturation, due to low soil permeability.

It was even noted in the 200mm of topsoil. ‘When the investigation hole was complete, water rose in it to 50mm below the soil surface. The plants, the soil and the watertable all say the same thing: it’s a location that is often 100% saturated for long periods. ‘The original assessment of the soil and suitability for onsite sewage management undertaken for Mallams appears to have made no comment on the level of the watertable, on the striations or on the plants indicative of saturated soils. It may be

that the abnormal long period of drought that the north coast was experiencing at the time and the low watertable presented a more encouraging picture, however even in times of drought it would be expected an experienced observer would still have noted the indicative plants and rust stains.’ Mr Dey said that, after decades of undertaking site assessments for onsite sewage systems, he had never had a client ask him to investigate a site in 100% saturated soil. ‘No normal person is so ludicrous as to propose an onsite disposal area in a saturated heavy clay soil that is totally inadequate for such purposes. No authority in its right mind would allow onsite wastewater disposal within such soil.’

Local News in brief Oppose planning takeover: CAN The Community Action Network believes that State Government’s takeover of Council’s planning powers is the greatest threat facing this Shire in its efforts to protect our environmental and cultural identity. ‘The changes described by Education Officer Mark Byrne, as reported in The Echo of July 8, have already undermined Council and played into the hands of the big developers: Woolwor ths at Mullumbimby, BECTON in Byron and now the possibility of the proposed Splen-

dour in the Grass site in the north,’ says CAN ‘CAN reasserts its basic position of support for candidates who want public participation in Council decision-making, particularly in planning matters where our natural environment and/or residential amenity are under threat. We support the Mayor’s call to have Minister Sartor’s new planning laws repealed and for Local Government to be properly recognised in the Australian Constitution.’

Local organisers have announced the inaugural Evolve Arts Festival, to be held at Red Devil Park on Saturday October 4. ‘The festival will nurture an existing wealth of talent with arts lovers treated to an eclectic array of entertainment – ballet, opera, orchestral works, world music, theatre, comedy, film, circus and a selection of mixed media art installations.’

Festival director and producer Stuart Hucker said,

‘It’s very exciting to be able to give artists a platform to display their talents and provide a forum for a wide range of genres and cultures to share their experience.

‘We very much intend the festival to be inviting for all walks of life and all ages.

With Council strengthening the family aspects of the Shire, we feel this festival with its family demographic is part of that evolution.’

Some of Australia’s best comedians will provide a

good belly laugh and the whole family will love the outdoor trapeze provided by Spaghetti Circus and featuring Australia’s top circus performers.

Artists are invited to submit their works in and around the ‘Epi Centre’ gallery space. The space will boast over 90 exhibition stalls and feature more than 500 artworks available for purchase.

A competition will also be held for high school and uni-

versity students. More details of the submission process will be announced soon.

Children under 12 enter for free. Tickets for ages 13 to 17 are $35 and $95 for adults.

Early bird tickets go on sale next Monday July 28 and can be purchased from www.evolveartsfestival.com. au. Evolve Arts Festival will support Byron High and St Finbarr’s with the parking proceeds and organisers say it is carbon neutral.

Three artists, three studios, one exhibition Three visual artists have recently set up studios in the newly refurbished building next to the Ross Industrial Estate, in Mullumbimby.

Local residents and painters Belinda Paton, Romy Dingle and Leonie Jackson have decided to combine their talents and have one big opening night exhibition together. This will give art lovers in the area an opportunity to see the ‘inner sanctum’ of the private artist’s studio. The studios are a place where works can be viewed, discussed, bought, and commissioned, where artists and clients can work in consultation.

New Zealand born Belinda Paton graduated from art school in 1992. Belinda has had many solo exhibitions both in New Zealand and Australia, and also won many awards for her work.

Belinda’s work is known for its beautifully contrasting textures and colours, as well

as its ultimately spiritual themes. Her new work, The Buddha Series, to be displayed on the opening night, depicts the themes of eastern symbolism and nature. The works utilise a wide variety of techniques and are layered with opalescent colours, giving one feelings of tranquillity and calmness.

The daughter of a sailor, and born on a tiny island in the Pacific Ocean, it is hardly surprising that the driving thematic concern behind Leonie Jackson’s art is water.

Venetians call it l’appassionata de l’acqua, an obsession with water in all its forms. A recent graduate from Southern Cross University, Leonie’s work in the 2007 student’s exhibition sold out.

In her River Bend Series the contours of the earth, viewed from above, become an alternate way to explore the idea of landscape.

Romy Dingle has been working visually most of her

life. She studied at East Sydney Tech in the 1980s, and is currently completing her Bachelor of Visual Arts at Southern Cross University. Romy was recently awarded a grant from the university for her excellence in painting.

‘The baby tree fern has been a recurring icon for me, it relates to issues around environmental degradation and rejuvenation,’ she says.

‘My recent paintings are an extension of this theme and a response to the current environmental crisis. Painting, as a process, is a reminder to me of ebb and flow, and a reminder of cyclic nature.’

Local indigenous community member Athol Crompton will be giving a Welcome to Country, and the Director of Lismore Regional Gallery, Steven Alderton will be lending his support by opening the exhibition.

The artists from Station

Street Studios invite art lovers and all members of the local and business community to celebrate with drinks and nibbles on Friday July 25, 6pm-8pm, corner of Station and Mill Streets, Mullumbimby.

Spaghetti Circus hosted a Circus Camp last week for around 45 very excited and energetic young people.

Participants learnt tumbling, aerials, hula hoops, juggling, clowning and acro-balance.

Participants came from all over the Far North Coast including Tweed Shire, Lismore, Barkersvale, Kyogle and Nimbin.

Circus Camp was designed to give young people an opportunity to learn new circus skills and, for some, build on existing skills. The week of workshops culminated in a circus performance held at Spaghetti Circus.

‘The camp brought together the circus community from around the area.

The kids loved hanging out, meeting new people and learning new tricks with new coaches,’ said Genivieve Davies, Gymjamjugglejam Director.

Tweed Shire Council, Gymjamjugglejam and Community Connections have supported the program by sourcing participants and organising transport. Australia Council for the Arts Community Partnerships Program has generously funded the project.

Through programs like Circus Camp, Spaghetti Circus hopes to support other

groups who teach circus in the area by offering specialist training for their coaches, sharing equipment and providing workshops.

‘Coming to Spaghetti Circus was an awesome opportunity to use their facilities and learn different techniques and skills from the coaches,’ said Suzie Cardiff, Director Hoopla Circus.

Due to the enormous level of interest from young people in Circus Camp, Tweed Shire Council is interested in

Green paper first shot in carbon wars Vol 23 #07

July 22, 2008

What are words for?

What are words for when no-one listens anymore? asked the American band Missing Persons in 1987. The question seems even more pertinent today when we are bombarded by opinion and ‘information’ from all angles and when politicians issue sound bytes ‘full of sound and fury, signifying nothing’.

The entertaining Byron Bay Writers Festival will hopefully answer the question this weekend. How much the enthusiasm of its devotees will radiate the answer out to the general public is another question.

By reading we do not necessarily comprehend the meaning of the words before us. We might expand upon George Santayana’s opinion that ‘Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it’ to include the doomed who do not take the lessons from words into their own deeds.

Non-fiction points the way in this field. If, for example, we do not read and understand accounts of war from as far back as Thucydides up until, say, Eric Campbell’s Absurdistan and cotton on to the duplicity and brutality involved, then we are perhaps condemned to support the next pointless conflagration which comes along.

But does fiction also have a place in a world which teeters on the brink of global climate catastrophe? Have we the right to escapism? Perhaps escape into fiction is a better release than drugs or religion. But fiction also holds lessons about the real world – Graham Greene could not have legally presented so much truth about the Cold War and the treachery of governments through non-fiction.

‘What are words for?’ may not be a welcome question to the publishing industry, the authors and the academics who make a quid interpreting them – or to newspaper folk, for that matter. However it is a question worth considering before putting words to paper or opening our mouths – at least now and again.

Words can be an attempt for us to understand each other and along with music can offer ways past conflict… … but on the other hand, as Death said in Terry Pratchett’s Sourcery, ‘Cats are nice.’

On yer bike Byron Shire Council and the committee members who worked on it are to be congratulated for getting a draft bike plan on public exhibition – you can see it online at www.byron.nsw.gov.au/PublicExhibition and comment upon it until Thursday August 7.

The plan makes a good start in delineating tracks for Ocean Shores, Brunswick Heads, Byron Bay, Bangalow, Ewingsdale and Suffolk Park. Cyclists should check out the maps and see if the proposed tracks meet their needs.

There is still a lot of work to be done – and a lot of money needed – to make the bike tracks a reality. Much also needs to be done in the way of education so that cyclists can ride safely. The onus does not fall entirely upon motorists to behave appropriately – as readers have pointed out, some cyclists still court death by riding without lights at night.

S

o the government’s longawaited Green Paper on emissions trading isn’t as tough as the Greens would like: the coal mines are to remain open and private motoring is not to become a crime.

Nor is it as specific as industry would prefer: the actual numbers about caps and deadlines will have to wait until Treasury completes its modelling in October. In the meantime, of course, the various stakeholders can submit their own wish lists, threats and special pleadings; indeed, they have already begun to do so.

The government hopes to have its own, more explicit, White Paper ready before the end of the year, but even that will not be definitive: there will still be plenty of time for what Kevin Rudd euphemistically calls argy-bargy before the finished product hits its final hurdle in the senate, where the government will require the support either of the greens and the independents, or of a sizeable slice of the coalition.

On present indications it is unlikely to get either without a big fight.

But having said all that, the Green paper is not a bad start – certainly not the surrender to industry the greens are portraying. For starters it is reasonably comprehensive; agriculture is still out, but transport is definitely in, with the truckies given just one year to adjust.

Private motorists will not have to start paying carbon tax for three years.

But this does not mean, as many commentators have claimed, that the price of petrol will be frozen. Cuts in excise will compensate for the new tax, but not for the normal supply-and-demand rises we have seen over the last 12 months. As these continue, the pressure on motorists to modify their behaviour will mount.

So will the pressure on gov-

ernments to provide adequate public transport, and this is where the major weakness in the Green Paper becomes apparent: too much of the incoming revenue from permit sales has been allocated to compensation for polluting industries, leaving insufficient for the reform and repair of infrastructure. Indeed, the gov-

Bringing them inside the tent has caused a huge anomaly: Rudd has been forced to invent a new criterion, which is that the heaviest polluters will receive compensation, but those whose emissions fall below an arbitrary threshold will miss out.

In other words those who have ignored all the warning signs and have made no

Those who have ignored all the warning signs and have made no attempts to clean up their acts over the years are to be rewarded for their selfishness and stupidity.

by Mungo MacCallum ernment has been so generous in its offers of compensation that there will probably not be enough new money to cover even that, especially in the early years when the trading price of carbon is being phased in at low levels.

The main reason has been the government’s failure to follow the recommendations of the Garnaut report and limit industry compensation to those competing for exports, at least while their overseas competitors are not subject to similar restrictions. These are of course included, although some of the worst polluters – the aluminium smelters – are already screaming for more. But so are the big coal-fired electricity generators, which have nothing to do with exports, but everything to do with politics.

In New South Wales, of course, the Labor government is trying to sell them off; if they suddenly had to buy emission permits they would be worth far less to the embattled Morris Iemma. And in Victoria, the whole state relies on the filthy brown coal-fired generators of the Latrobe Valley; making these uneconomical would devastate the government of John Brumby.

attempts to clean up their acts over the years are to be rewarded for their selfishness and stupidity, and those like the natural gas industry, a far less damaging source of fuel, and some of the newer oil refineries which have embraced expensive new anti-polluting measures, will be penalised.

This, of course, will be the source of much argy-bargy.

At least it appears that the government has the right people to conduct it. It is pleasing to note that the relevant minister, Penny Wong, was allowed to deliver the Green paper all by herself. If Rudd, notoriously a hands-on control-freak, is now trusting his ministers to this extent, the team will become much more functional.

Also, the public still seems pretty much on side.

But an ominous sign is that as we get down to a serious costing of the whole exercise, the climate change sceptics are staging something of a comeback in the media. Their science is no better, but their argument that tackling the problem is simply too expensive and risky for a small player like Australia and that doing nothing might actually end up as the

cheaper option has an undoubted appeal to the hip pocket nerve. It is to be hoped that Brendan Nelson is not tempted down this populist path; climate change is one area where we need the opposition to stay serious and sensible.

Unlike Cardinal George Pell, who used World Youth Day to urge Christians into a breeding war with the rest of the world; in addition to Peter Costello’s one for him, one for her and one for the nation, Catholic families are now expected to have a few for God. Pell pronounced himself a bit of a sceptic, meaning he had trouble believing the scientists while absolutely clear about such well-proven concepts as virgin birth, life after death and turning water into wine and wine into blood. He was not, however, able to end the drought.

A

nd finally it’s farewell to former Nationals Leader Mark Vaile, not that many people will notice. He leaves immediately after Alexander Downer, his fellow criminal-incompetent in the Iraq wheat-forweapons scandal.

This has focussed the commentators on if and when Peter Costello will join them and complete the process of removing the detritus of the Howard years – for some reason other senior ministers like Nick Minchin and Tony Abbott are not yet numbered among yesterday’s men. The Costello-forLeader flag is now being waved vigorously by The Australian, which has never liked Malcolm Turnbull much.

The man himself is still playing the role of political prickteaser, but hints he may declare himself when his father-in-law has finished writing the Costello memoirs, probably in a couple of months. But then again, he might feel it’s just too much like work. Back to the iron lung.

Splendour court move draws ak ■So Splendour in the Grass is taking their DA to the Land and Environment Court accusing Council of holding up the process. Why accuse Council? Splendour withdrew their own DA, then when they lodged a second DA to hold a festival in 2008, amended their application eight months after close of submissions. These amendments had to be readvertised for public exhibition, involving extra work not only for Council but for the community at large.

Since the late eighties, Byron Council and the NSW state government have spent a considerable amount of time and money on resolving issues pertaining to the natural, cultural and agricultural values of this unique area.

You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to know that if this development is approved for a ‘trial’ event, the impact of 25,000 people and associated trafďŹ c on the environment and social fabric of the rural amenity will be a disaster. Blind Freddie can see that the Splendour people did not do their homework on this one. The reason they want to tunnel through Marshalls Ridge is because they have no suitable entrance into the property that caters for this type of ‘intensive’ development.

The importance of this wildlife corridor cannot be underestimated. Not only is

it the most easterly wildlife corridor in the Byron Shire but it is the most easterly wildlife corridor on the Australian mainland.

With coastal habitat dwindling at an alarming rate, areas such as the Billinudgel Nature Reserve and Marshalls Ridge are absolutely vital to the survival of dependent fauna species.

What is more important when it comes to prioritising the needs of our youth? I for one would certainly prefer to leave my kids a legacy where they can still experience natural environments such as this, vital to the ongoing survival of our truly unique native fauna.

There is no shortage of cleared land, so with a little foresight and common sense, I’m sure Splendour can ďŹ nd a more appropriate site to hold their festival. With local elections brewing and widespread community opposition to the festival being held at Yelgun, I urge present councillors and future candidates to consider this issue carefully.

Brunswick Heads ■The mail was that Splendour in the Grass at Yelgun DA was going to be determined at an extraordinary meeting at council on July 31? Now in last week’s Echo the Splendour consortium announced they were not

going for a trial festival and now want to try their luck in the Land and Environment Court. This latest from the Splendour consortium reminds me of the Woolies tactics of changing the goal posts after the ball’s been kicked off, and don’t they know how to do that well?

Mullumbimby â– So North Byron Parklands/Splendour in the Grass has thrown a tanty and is marching off to the Land and Environment court because Byron Council is slow in assessing their D/A. Wow, what a surprise.

Of course they (North Byron) have been a little slack too. There has still been no assesment of the social, economic and security implications of 25,000 strangers trampling through Ocean Shores, New Brighton, Billinudgel, and South Golden Beach. And there has been no response to the questions, queries and concerns that New Brighton Village Association has addressed to NBP over two years ago.

Standard response to expected knockback? Storm off to the Land and Environment court, claiming it’s all so unfair and no-one loves you.

â– August 2007: Fauna Survey of NBSP by Mark Fitzgerald was not included in the ďŹ rst DA or the amended DA. Why wasn’t this most relevant piece of information included?

Councillors, you already know the feelings of the large majority of people in the north. The yes yes, no no no, yes attitude of the past isn’t going to cut it this election – people are ďŹ nally seeing through this. On the amended DA it looks like an enormous event site (with token greenery), massive light towers (so it will look like the SCG at night), helipad etc.

Councillors, you’ve heard our enormous list of reasons why this is so inappropriate.

Now do the right thing by the constituents in the north of the Shire, approximately one third of your rate base.

We are now being threatened with the L&E Court before due process has been completed. Council staff has not yet presented a report to Councillors so an informed decision can be made.

Once again the residents of the north may not be heard. Well, not happy, Council. This is going to affect OS, NB, SGB and NOS for the rest of our history. So residents now is your chance to let councillors know your feelings.

Urgent action Labor’s green paper on carbon pollution in light of the catastrophic meltdown planet earth is currently experiencing is grossly irresponsible. We need to take urgent action now in July 2008. There is no guarantee this will be soon enough. We may well have already passed the tipping point.

This is not an overreaction when bearing in mind the ever increasing telltale signs of polar, glacial meltdown, Murray Darling at death’s door etc, etc. We are right at the top of the pollution ladder per head of population.

If we are going to lead by example, we need to desist in worrying what the rest of the world is doing and err on the side of caution. If the rest don’t follow, we will go down the inevitable tube with a somewhat clearer conscience. We must try.

Scottish response To James Robinson-Gale (Echo, July 8) – I am sure that for religites, atheists have had a bad name since 1571 when the word was coined from the French. My comments add little in the way of impact that you appear to ascribe to them.

My argument is with the preferential treatment given to religious organisations and the timorous apologetics portrayed by governments and individuals in dealing with superstitious rubbish. One should play the ball, James. If

ad hominem attacks on me are all you can come up with I suggest the ball is still in play and you have lost. One to me, nil to you. Bye-bye.

To Bev Sweeney (Echo, July 8) – It is not possible to lose an education unless one is very careless, I agree. It is possible, however, to heavily discount logic in favour of religious consolation. I have all the sensibilities that you mention in your litany and have never had the need to suspend common sense in favour of a doctrine carrying similar evidence to that of a fairytale, ie none. So, yes, I think you have lost the ability to think rationally at least about your life and its consequences. Self respect is another thing entirely. My comment, your call.

Where is our new Byron Bay library?

Friends of the Byron Bay Library support the comments of Di Morrissey in her Northern Star article of 19/6/08 where she asked ‘where is our library?’ This question was repeated by Kerry O’Brien of the ABC 7.30 Report at the recent Byron Youth Forum when he commented on the town’s lack of library facilities.

The local community rates as the ninth highest library user per head of population in NSW, despite being deprived of an adequate library and the overall benefit it provides. Dedicated library funds were used in 1995 to cover the shortfall of funds for the Mullumbimby Byron Shire Council Chambers.

For the past 13 years Byron Bay Library has operated from a small, cramped and inadequate building where a diligent library staff has done its best to provide library services. Friends of the Library believe they are echoing the views of the local community when they say that 13 years is long enough to wait!

Now plans appear to be progressing. Last year Council adopted a plan to build a new library on the corner of Lawson and Middleton Streets. Architectural plans have been prepared and gazetted of the land title as imminent.

This week the state gov-

ernment granted Council a rate variation which will enable them to raise further funds to bring the vision of a new library closer to fruition.

In the leadup to Council elections in September 2008, Friends of the Library call on all candidates to indicate their support for and commitment to the funding and completion of this all important project.

Byron Bay is a vibrant creative community. It runs a successful annual Writer’ Festival. We need a new library and we need it now!

Cultural Plan is good news ■I’d like to acknowledge and thank all those involved in the development of the draft Cultural Plan for Byron Shire, particularly Mayor Barham and Councillor Westheimer who jointly facilitated the community meeting to discuss the document.

While detailed and comprehensive, the document is not perfect. Will it ever be perfect? Probably not, but to expect such is to miss the point. Culture is not static and no (inevitably) bureaucratic document produced by a body such as Council can ever hope to fully deďŹ ne the dynamism and vibrancy of what it means to live, work and play in Byron Shire.

What is important is that a attempt has been made to acknowledge core values and reect the diversity within our communities, which together make up our ‘unique’

culture. Council adoption of the plan is not the end of the process. It is the beginning. A set of ‘guiding principles’ has been developed to inform and guide decision makers about what is important in our lives. The plan must also nurture and support the ways in which we choose to express culture. As the Mayor noted, the plan must evolve as a ‘living’ document.

The success of the plan depends on the extent to which the community now takes over the ownership of the ideas and strategies put forward in the draft document (on public exhibition until July 31). Release of the draft in the leadup to the upcoming Council elections provides a great opportunity to canvass the suggested strategies with candidates vying to be part of the next Council. As one of those

candidates, I look forward to prices rise and car use dimincontinuing the conversation. ishes, our transport needs Basil Cameron can only increase.

longer killed here and Sunnybrand chickens are on the nose and may leave us, most people in the Shire who are not on some beneďŹ t or pension derive their income directly or indirectly from tourism. This is because there is a high multiplier – economic studies have shown over seven indirect jobs are supported by each direct tourism position. A responsible Council should

not even go there without an economic impact analysis, something one suspects that the above objectors would not want – they certainly do not mention the economic consequences.

Our Shire is more vibrant and alive and has many more facilities than any other comparable area precisely because we have good tourism.

Some of our localities like

much of Brunswick Heads were expressly released and subdivided by the State for holiday accommodation.

What rights do the Green anti-work lobby have to attack that ? As for legality – surely all have the right to rent out part or all of their homes for accommodation.

Letters suggest you move to an area where there much fewer of them. It is probably cheaper but you may not get a job.

We are in a period of economic uncertainty with hardship for many working people. Our youngsters do not have enough local work, why destroy more local employment? Some of us recall the bad old days where a large proportion of local tradesmen was out of work. Why not work on managing the real issues such as noise? Why not work on attracting the sort of visitors who will treat our space with respect? In many

instances the worst noise offenders are not the visitors but owners and permanent renters – think of doofs, motorbikes and loud music.

Maybe additional Council rangers could be employed to supplement the overworked and under resourced police in dealing with such issues.

Councils have the power to do this, including the issuing of fines.

Hawke’s conversion When I heard how seriously Bob Hawke was talking about the threat of over-

population in his ‘Elders’ interview with Andrew Denton (ABC’s Enough Rope, July 14) I just about fell out of bed. Hawke was the PM who ramped up immigration numbers so high that here in Australia we are struggling with their population consequences on housing availability, the MurrayDarling environment, energy demand, etc.

Yet, to Hawke’s enormous credit he singled out overpopulation as the greatest future threat in the world!

That was a groundbreaking revelation that he gave to Andrew and a turnaround

admission that should be distributed widely.

When Hawke followed that with ‘I mean it’s, how does the message get through? I mean you look in terms of political leadership.

There are no great political leaders around’ I couldn’t help but to think of Kevin Rudd. I hope our current Prime Minister was watching and paying very close attention to his Labor predecessor’s gaining of wisdom because, to date, Rudd has been racing off in the wrong direction.

No friend to Rene

Rene Thalmann’s regular diatribes demonstrate his extreme partisan view of anything remotely ‘Green’.

He seems to enjoy rewriting history and refuses to acknowledge the widespread community and state and federal government support for the inclusion of Lot 107 within the Billinudgel Nature Reserve.

Despite the obvious controversy over Lot 107, Rene and his supporters have never come up with an alternative site for a sportsfield Alan Rich anywhere in OS. Rene never Lennox Head mentions that OS is very

hilly and steep and there is very limited flat land available. He also seems to have forgotten that OS is built around a golf course, one of the largest sporting facilities in the Shire with lots of potential for community development.

Rene finds it much more enjoyable to continue bashing Council, rather than be proactive in solving the problems he so constantly bemoans.

Rene is clearly ‘anti-green’ and backing BU in the coming elections. He’d be wiser to look closer to home, at the Bruns Simple Pleasures campaign for guidance in proactive community initiatives to manage tourism and marketing, while protecting community values and residents interests.

But unfortunately Rene seems to prefer empty rhetoric to positive action.

‘Please note my altruism in making these suggestions – as I am a pensioner (and therefore not worthy of consideration by the Rudd Labor government) I do not stand to benefit. My sole consideration is various “W” families. Do not contact me to thank me for my not inconsiderable contribution.

It will be thanks enough to see the adoption of all (indeed, any) of the above.’

Justine Elliot, as far as I know, has done utterly nothing to assist the needy I have listed above!

that you need to know From 1 July 2008 the Australian Government will increase the Child Care Tax Rebate payment to families from 30% to 50% to help meet their out-of-pocket child care costs.

The Child Care Tax Rebate is a payment for parents or guardians who are working, studying or training.

The Child Care Tax Rebate is not income tested.

ne of the workshops of the Byron Social Forum, Community Core Values, now meets regularly as a community-based committee.

If core values are the basis of our quality of life we as a community can use these to develop a framework for policy options and problem solving.

The mission of our Community Core Values Group is to engage people of the Shire through an exhaustively inclusive process and create core value statements that best capture our ‘essence’. The core values that have drawn us to this special place. Ones we wish to protect and maintain for ourselves, our children and our children’s children.

We have drawn our initial list of core values for your consideration from a number of diverse Community sources – the Byron Living Together statement, the Beacon Core Values, the Earth Charter, the Co-creating the Future Holistic Mission Statement, the Byron United Core Values and from Byron Shire Council’s Management Plan 2007-2010.There is a great deal of overlap and we believe those in the Council’s Plan provide a coherent distillation of the others and an appropriate place to start.

Common values deserving

Byron Social Forum This week the Community Core Values Group established as a consequence of the Byron Social Forum presents its mission. detailed development are: Sustainability, Equity, Creativity, Integrity, Accountability, Transparency, Efficiency, Community Engagement and Mutual Respect.

The BSC’s Management Plan’s values are designed to underpin BSC’s activities.

The Council’s plan does not apply to individual or collective activity outside Council.

We believe they should.

Innocent mistakes will be made but ‘whatever you can get away with’ can become the paradigm for some.

By testing assumptions against a framework of core values, decisions would be less likely to be made in a simplistic way. We would be better able to see whether apparent solutions to a problem may lead to unintended ‘flow on’ consequences that undermine other core values and ultimately result in a reduction in quality of life.

Rather than being treated as isolated issues, neighbour disturbances, holiday lets, public nuisance, commercial and non-commercial development, waste disposal, energy use, etc, would be

able to be considered in a more holistic way.

By acting promptly an initial set of agreed Community Core Values may be largely complete before the Council elections in September. Candidates would be asked to explain ‘for the record’ key issues in terms of their impact on Community Core Values. This would help us understand how candidates would operate if elected.

The development process will need various tools.These may include: s SEEKING COOPERATION FROM all local media sources – The Echo’s Forum is a good starting point but all media will be approached as venues for discussion; s RECRUITING AS MANY PEOple and organisations as possible to participate; s INVITING PROFESSIONALS (lawyers, mediators and conflict resolution specialists) to join the process; s MARKET RESEARCH POSSIBLY involving local schools or TAFE to coordinate community surveys; and s INVESTIGATION OF THE VALUE

of local referendums.

These core values can be benchmarked from time to time as they and the community evolve.

More detailed information about the documents and other reference material mentioned has been placed on the Byron Shire level of the www.upworldgov.org website. We will be making extensive use of this website as it has been designed to help communities like ours make decisions (Internetbased tools are already being used at the national level in response to the 20/20 Summit).

After a thorough consultation process the next step is how do we ensure these values are implemented by elected councillors and the community as a whole?

This is an opportunity to have your say about what you feel is the essence of our Byron community, what is sacred to all. That the direction Byron Shire takes into the future is based on your core values.

Whether you are turned on by the potential benefits

of participation, or motivated by the consequences of a failed attempt, this is the time to come forward and participate.

Threatened species still at home in Byron Byron is still home to a variety of threatened wildlife, the Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife reports.

Since last year’s National Threatened Species Day on September 7, there have been confirmed sightings of the threatened Humpback Whale, Grey-headed Flying Fox and Koala in the area.

Leonie Gale, CEO of the Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife, reported on some of the region’s rarest threatened species in the context of the Dymocks Golden Paw Award 2008, which will recognise the NSW or ACT primary school student who creates the best coloured drawing of a threatened Australian animal.

‘The region provides habitat for a great number of other threatened species, including the Red-legged Pademelon and Albert’s Lyrebird. People possibly saw these animals too, but may simply not have recognised them. Most threatened species are so rare that we often don’t know what they look like,’ said Ms Gale.

‘This is where we need the children’s help. Their drawings show everyone what our threatened animals look like, and people will recognise them when they see them.

They can help find our

threatened species so we can protect them and their homes.

‘In 2008 we also find that there were less sightings of those threatened animals that live in or near water such as the local Fishing Bat, Sooty Oystercatcher and Little Tern. That’s why the Australian National Maritime Museum will display the best 600 drawings of threatened aquatic animals.

‘The nine winners receive trophies and great prizes including book vouchers from Dymocks, national parks Discovery tours, Faber-Castell art supplies and Project AWARE activity books and passes to the museum. But the greatest

gift is for the animals.’

Don Grover, CEO of Dymocks explains, ‘We have decided to match the children’s efforts. While they raise awareness for our threatened species we add the funds for on-ground conservation. For every Golden Paw entry Dymocks will donate $1 to the Foundation for National Parks & Wildlife to help save our threatened animals.’

In 2006 this money helped the Foundation buy a marine mammal rescue kit. In 2007 the Foundation will use it to fund conservation projects for endangered frogs.

The competition is open to all primary school students in NSW and the ACT.

Entries for 2007 close on National Threatened Species Day, September 7. This day was chosen in memory of ‘Benjamin’, the last Tasmanian Tiger who died on that day in 1936 in Hobart Zoo. To help children learn more about animals like Benjamin, Dymocks has put together the ‘Wild Tales’ book range which is now available at Dymocks stores.

Entry forms, teaching materials and threatened species information are available online at www. fnpw.org.au.

A festival of raitas, eggplants and apples John Campbell Cookbooks just don’t have the gravitas of the ‘deep and meaningfuls’ and ‘achingly beautifuls’ that get the nod at writers’ festivals.

Maybe it’s because they are conventionally associated with the more humble domestic duties of women (personally, I’d rather read Elizabeth David than Frank Moorhouse any day). Nonetheless, people were writing about food for ages before the current crop of celebrity chefs started mugging our TV screens and teaching us how to suck eggs.

In the fifth century BC, Herodotus learnt that an inscription on the Great Pyramid, already two thousand years old when he arrived in Egypt, recorded that the slaves who constructed it were fed onions, radishes and leeks with their bread and beer. Sounds like a jet propelled workforce if ever I heard of one. The inquisitive Greek (with whom you always need to take a grain of salt), wrote it down, and recipes, ingredients and methods of preparation have fascinated us ever since. This Paper’s diligent foodie Victoria Cosford is part of that tradition.

My own library of cookbooks is comparatively small, but I value it as highly as my shelves of fiction and vault of souvenired rugby league programs.

However, because routine steamrolls experimentation, I rarely consult them. When I do, I go straight to the most oil stained, crinkled and in many cases loose pages to find what I’m looking for.

A sentimental favourite is a battered paperback, Cooking The IndianWay (so deceptively prosaic are their titles).

It was compiled by Ati Hosain and Sita Pasricha and I bought it for 15p at a jumble sale in Swiss Cottage. Listed in the savouries section is its priceless nugget, a failsafe recipe for samosas – the magic is the yoghurt in the pastry.

Another treasure is The George Bernard Shaw Cookbook, written by his housekeeper, Mrs Alice Laden.

GBS, a champion of vegetarianism, apparently had an incorrigible sweet-tooth, a penchant that seems totally out of character for the crusty Fabian, don’t you reckon? I’ve worn a well beaten path to the apples stuffed with ground almonds and buttered sugar. My addition of tarry black dates to the mix would, I’m sure, have met with the approval

of the old coot – and Mrs Laden.

What nearly all cookbooks have in common are illustrations, their oeuvre being free of any snobby attitude to pictures.

It’s a tossup, but the most evocative of mine is probably A Taste Of India, by the Merchant/Ivory actress, Madhur Jaffrey. It contains an exquisite Kashmiri curry of eggplant and apple (a combination I have not seen anywhere else), and a photograph of a street scene in which I am positive I can identify the cunning little scammer who once picked me up in his auto rickshaw in Bangalore.

Dear to my heart, too, is The Pooh Cookbook. Needless to say, honey is a prime ingredient throughout, though not called for in the tried-and-true recipes for cinnamon toast, gingernuts and pancakes, which are meant to be eaten with lemon juice and, for the Shaws of the world, lashings of sugar.

The torn cover (an over excited niece) has the always hungry bear flipping a pancake with Eeyore, Tigger and Piglet watching keenly. Along with Ernest H. Shepard’s timeless, proto-Leunig drawings, it offers handy hints for the cook: ‘Try to tidy and

The meter wasn’t working (how unusual), so he quoted half the price offered by his compadres, then ended up charging exactly the same amount by taking the scenic route to M. Chinnaswamy Stadium (credit where it’s due, I suppose).

Ada Boni’s Italian Regional Cooking is also lavishly illustrated and listed in its index are seven frittata dishes.

Being a devotee of the spud, I was immediately drawn to con le patate on page 195.

Astonishingly, page 195 is completely blank. As are 194, 191 and 190. For a bibliophile, it’s a bit like finding a stamp with the writing upside down, or whatever it is that philatelists go bananas over.

The book also has a fab picture of a bowl of spaghetti with eggplants at the foot of the Elephant Fountain in the baroque city of Catania – the sepia tint and brooding streetscape suggest that it was taken when Michael Corleone was in hiding on the island.

wash up as you go along so you are not left with a nasty mess at the end.’ Sage words indeed – if only I could bring myself to heed them.

Cookbooks can also provide the sort of trivia and esoterica that gets gobbled up by dilettantes without touching the sides. As well as a sinful recipe for peach sauce, Maideh Mazda’s In A Persian Kitchen asserts that the word peach comes from the name of the land via which the fruit entered Europe. And in Claudia Roden’s essential A Book Of Middle Eastern Food are reminiscences of her girlhood in Cairo, along with ancient tales and proverbs: ‘God loveth those who are content.’

I got a warm inner glow when that homily entered my head on Saturday afternoon. It was half time in the footy. Giants v Cougars at Les Donnelly Field. I stood contentedly in the queue for a cup of hot chips and vinegar. The joy of food… you wouldn’t read about it.

Everybody loves Judith Lucy Mandy Nolan Judith Lucy has always been one of my favourite comics.

I’ve never seen her live, but I’ve watched her on the telly, or listened to her on the radio and marvelled, the way you do when you are a girl who happens to be a comic, at her laconic yet ladylike charm. She has that drolly

dismissive verbal shrug that seems to navigate disasters with ease. She is disarmingly honest, a comic who long ago learnt that the funniest stuff is the real stuff.

Judith reflected back on her first ever gig, the moment that preceded her first comedic revelation that being funny was as simple as being herself.

‘I look back on my first year as a comic and just cringe! The first time I got up on stage, it’s in the book, although I don’t talk about much of the comedy, but I really thought the props were the key.

‘I went nuts with props. I wrapped the audience in toilet paper, I tried to recreate a documentary on stage dancing with a metre and a half kabana sausage, I thought smoke and mirrors, smoke and mirrors, keep moving. I remember after the first night the woman at the Last Laugh said we don’t encourage props here, why not talk about something you know about? At the time I was working at a vego cafe, so I talked about that.’

And so began the illustrious career of comedian Judith Lucy.

Ms Lucy has just released her first book: The Lucy Family Alphabet. It’s an eloquent, scathing, uncontrived autopsy on growing up Catholic. Oh, and did I mention adopted? It’s how Judith opens the book, with a charming, and somewhat disarming depiction of a Lucy Family Christmas, which ends abruptly one year with a fight and a life changing revelation: ‘By the way, Judith, you’re adopted.’

Judith was 25 when she found out she was adopted.

A friend joked: ‘oh my god you must be so relieved’. The Lucy Family were dysfunctional with a capital D, but somehow these unconventionally conventional mad Irish Catholic alcoholics made her who she is today.

Both Judith’s parents have passed away. I wondered whether it’s dangerous once witnesses disappear – has she waited before the big reveal?

‘I got away with stuff when

it. I suggested it was very courageous.

Lucy snorts her trademark cynical laugh. ‘It’s either brave or stupid, if I had done a show about failing and then I failed doing that? It’s the kind of show that is just begging for the critics to write: ‘she sure did!’ Fortunately I worked very hard on that show, I wanted to eliminate so much of that.’

What shocked Judith the most was the media attentioned she garnered for what was really personality radio.

It just wouldn’t have happened in Melbourne. She wondered if anyone would have noticed. But not in Sydney.

‘If you fail in radio in Sydney, it’s in the paper – they were slagging me off in the real estate sections: “look at the ratings, no wonder she’s renting!” It did knock my confidence. I thought, I can lie down and not leave the house, or I can go out and talk aobut it. Most people have been sacked but probably not as publicly.’

Judith’s self deprecatory tone is intoxicating. She laughs: ‘I just think comedy and self loathing go hand in hand!’

Lucy’s book is selling well.

Better than she thought. Way better in fact. ‘ Without sounding like a dick, I released a CD years ago nobody bought it, so I thought the book might just sink without a trace. I enjoyed the process of writing, and I thought at the time, even if no-one reads this, I don’t mind, I didn’t go in with high expectations, but now its on its fourth reprint, and it’s in the top ten! It’s been really lovely!

And let me you – people treat writers a lot better than they treat comedians! Penguin will send me a bunch of flowers when the book is doing well – who needs a boyfriend – I have a publisher!

they were still alive, in fact the most outrageous stuff I ran past Dad, including the Christmas Day adoption story. It doesn’t make him look great, but he was OK about it.’

It seems hard to believe that one can make it to adulthood without truly knowing the basis of one’s identity. Why did Judith’s parents choose to keep her biological parentage a secret?

‘They thought they were doing the right thing, Dad basically said if I was adopted, I wouldn’t want to know.’

So how does a revelation like that affect you?

‘You feel like you have been living a bit of a lie, and its hard to know how much you know and how much you don’t know. I remember people getting in touch with me and one guy said: “I lost my faith in everyting – I couldn’t leave the house for a year.”

‘I thought, get a grip!

Finding out you are adopted was more like when your house is burgled and you come home and go oh shit I’ve been robbed and then you notice little things much later, like, oh they took that, oh I wonder what my health issues might be?’

Judith Lucy loves telling a story. For her the act of crafting a novel wasn’t an arduous discipline. Judith has been writing for years. It’s the secret art of being a standup comic, something most comedians don’t want you to know – that the best material is crafted, not created at a whim on stage in an act of spontaneous genius.

The misconception that

comics just make up material in situ is a bit of a sore point with Ms Lucy: ‘That idea shits me more than I can tell you.

Someone from the circus, someone I thought would have a better understanding, said to me the other day: you pretty much make everything up on the spot don’t you? No, You pretty much write and you write and you write, and then there are bits that are ad libbed. Much of what I do is highly scripted.’

Judith recounts one of her biggest breakthrough’s was learning to tell the truth on stage.

‘Developing as a comic was such a slow process, it was years before I knew what I was doing, when I became aware it was based on truth.

I used to love the way Anthony Morgan could take something that happened that day, and Fleety does it too... but my big breakthrough happened when I came back from overseas and found out I was adopted and did ‘King of the Road’ and told stories that were pretty honest, that’s when I realised that people can really relate to you when you talk about shit things that have happened – because they relate to shit things that have happened to them, or they are just glad that they’re not you!’

Lucy’s star continued to rise, loved as one half of the Ladies Lounge on Triple J, numerous telly appearances, glowing reviews for her festival shows and in 2004 Judith found herself at the helm of Sydney’s 2-Day FM’s breakfast show with Kaz Cooke and Peter Helliar. This didn’t go so well.

Ratings plummeted, they were moved to drive time and the whole debacle ended with a very very public sacking. How does one cope with that?

Easy. You write a show about it.You call it ‘I Failed’.

In psychology they call it ‘reframing’ and it denotes one’s ability to take a challenging negative experience and create a positive out of

Funeral fantasy of a rock wannabe The Dirty Beat by Venero Armannno (UQP, RRP $32.95) Reviewed by Mandy Nolan Have you ever had a funeral fantasy? A moment of self indulgent reverie when you project into an unknown future, casting yourself as the corpse. You scan the church for familiar faces.

Who is weeping? Who can’t believe you are no longer there? Who is secretly sniggering behind their tissue?

This is exactly the place where we meet Venero Armannno’s protagonist.

The very dead rock and jazz drummer, Max. It’s most peculiar beginning, and I must admit eating my lunch while perusing the opening chapter where Max ‘observed’ his autopsy left me a little queasy. It is an abrupt but clever comical beginning into a story that is more a Fear and Loathing style caricature rather than a closely drawn portrait.

Armanno’s rather cryptic use of the narrator made for interesting reading. His ability to move in the spirit realm gave a sense of omnipotence to the authorial ‘I’. ‘I’ was not just Max, but various other characters that moved into the emotional trajectory.

Initially I found this cere-

brally abrasive. I couldn’t get a sense of who I was reading about. I felt annoyed about the disregard for authorial convention. But I stuck with it and, to Armanno’s credit, the narrative device paid off, and I found myself comfortably slipping from one human being’s point of view to the next.

This is the story of someone who was almost someone, but never quite was.

The rock musician who only ever achieved quiet mediocrity. I like that Armanno didn’t chose the lead singer as his character. That would be too obvious. He even overlooked the lead guitarist, or the sad thumping dirge of the bass player. He went for the guy who is always forgotten. The bloke holding the sticks, working his buns off.

The one guy in the band whose name no-one ever

knows. The drummer.

The Dirty Beat is quite charming in that it doesn’t romanticise rock, it tells the story of the middle-aged drummer in the stretch black Lee denims with the podgy gut who now works as a roadie. He never made it. It wasn’t as if he missed out. He just wasn’t that good. Still, his average life with its small achievements and clumsy tragedies still held a story that was worth being told. He could have been a plumber or an accountant. It didn’t matter, his life was driven by sense of loss, and the lonely intensity of love that would never be returned.

The entire text is set as Max flashes back on his life’s defining moments during the hour of his funeral.

It’s not so much a coming of age novel, as it is, ironically,

a coming of death!

I thought the book was a lot more interesting than the corny blurb on the dust jacket. I wonder who writes those blurbs? Perhaps the writers festival would consider a panel on writing succinct and accurate paragraphs on the back of books.

They always sound like they were written by the same guy who does the promos for the movies. ‘There was a guy, there was a girl, in a time where there was no time.’ I’m sure you get my drift.

This is not the best book I have ever read, but it is definitely an enjoyable read.

Knowing the narrator is dead gives a strange sense of finality, although there are moments when I lost myself in the story and forgot that he no longer existed. At times it made it difficult to connect with the character.

It was like the reader had arrived on the scene too late and instead of a vibrant dynamic storyteller, we got a dead bloke. We missed out on meeting him yet we attended his autopsy and met everyone who impacted on his life.

There is a certain melancholy as Max reflects back on the loves of his life, and as the reader draws near the end, there is a sad realisation

that Max is one of an army of men who lived in the past, his heart spent on his youthful passion and a lifelong obsession with Debbie Canova, the beautiful violinist who could no longer love him. Every man has one.

The woman who broke his heart.

Venero Armanno is a gifted and creative story teller, and Dirty Beat is an effortless and impressive read.

From a literary theory perspective, Armanno takes Derrida’s premise that the author is dead one step further and kills the narrator.

Scarlett Affection are in a good mood. They’ve just pulled into Brisbane, sitting in the car before they load in for their next gig. These two Bangalow based sisters have fortune smiling on them, everything they touch doesn’t necessarily turn to gold, but it does appear to be turning Scarlett. The girls have just secured a touring grant to get them out on the road to play more regional areas.

that has audiences spellbound, and a certain something that engenders local loyalty. Audiences around here have a real sense of ownership when it comes to Scarlett Affection, these two beautiful talented sisters aren’t just singers, they are our girls, and we all want them to do really well. They seem marked for success.

The girls have a unique approach to their upcoming tour, finding ways to engage with communities as they travel to remote regions.

Nerida adds: ‘We are doing song writing and stage craft workshops in schools. Last year we did a series of workshops at the YAC, and it was great and we realised we could connect with kids who love music and who want to learn more and it’s affirming for us that we had something valid to say!’

Melia is thrilled: ‘It’s for emerging acts to do original contemporary music to make touring to remote areas more commercially viable.

It’s really exciting because it’s as rare as hen’s teeth.

‘It’s called TRAX,’ she continued, ‘This is the biggest tour we have done nationally, we will go for about a month, and it will take in remote towns we have never been to before.

Melia agrees, ‘We thought it would be a lovely way to connect with communities – workshop during the day and performance at night.’

Nerida jumps in: ‘We hit the road in September and go to places like Tamworth, Dubbo… we are moving away from playing in pubs to more interesting venues, like converted warehouses, a gallery, and local halls.’

The girls have been busy and have even more material appearing in the ether.

We have the beginnings of a new record which is really exciting – we have been doing a lot of shows around the traps, tonight Brissie, tomrorow Sunshine Coast, the more you play the more it happens, the only dilemma is we haven’t had time to put it all down. We have fresh new songs we want to put down before the end of the year.’

The girls sing the praises of working outside of the pubs, although they credit the Rails as being their starting point.

‘We first started at the Rails, and I love it to bits, but you are competing with pool tables and beers, so for our kind of music it can be a bit tough, we really do suit a theatre space...’ Melia adds.

‘Sometimes I think the best music doesn’t suit pubs at all. There are so many beautiful old halls, that’s why Suzy from Ku has been great, playing the halls and making them accessible.’

Nerida is also an avid supporter of the hall gig: ‘I think it gives an incredible opportunity to connect with the audience, they are there to hear you.’

The girls have gained a lot of on – stage confidence. Both engaging, commanding performers who know how to hold a stage, they have that special kind of onstage chemistry

Scarlett Affection’s show at the Bangalow A&I Hall will be their last showcase in the area for 2008.

Melia asserts: ‘We are excited about this show, we are going to play a whole lot of new material, as a two piece and then inviting a couple of guests on stage to join us, because the A&I Hall is a favourite venue for us and we will have the grand piano.’

The Soapbox A few days ago I took the kids skating and I am happy to say that nothing has changed. It was like walking into an early eighties vortex. I left and instantly made an appointment to have my coiffure fashioned into a mullet and hunted out my high waisted stone wash denim. I hadn’t skated since my early twenties, and back then you did it on the old fashioned roller skate. They were clumsy, and chunky and took a lot of work to get any decent momentum.

I was amazed at how much easier it is to skate on rollerblades.

This was my first time on blades, and I didn’t want to look like a dick.

But it’s hard to look cool when you’re the only 40 year old mum on the rink grabbing the wall, running over children and screaming ‘FUCK’.

The other two mums were speeding past, obviously these chicks were skating sluts from yesteryear. The first lap was terrifying, and I had visions of myself facing the same fate as my friend Debbie who had a middle aged crisis like me and decided to reclaim her skating legs but ended up with two broken wrists and required a volunteer to wipe her bum for 6 weeks. I think that’s pushing the limits of any friendship, and the list of people I would enlist

YOYO

BACK ON YOUR SKATES

for such a purpose is surprisingly short. (The list of those who will comply is even shorter.)

I don’t know why, but whirling around is really fun. They even play the same games.

Six foot middle aged women should not attempt the limbo. Nor should they attempt going to the toilet while still on wheels. I had a most peculiar time in the loos, fighting off my skinny jeans while trying to keep my legs together. In fact the effort of keeping my legs together has left me feeling a little stiff.

(No doubt I should have learnt that skill years ago!) But what amazed me the most was the

dude. The dude was still there. You know the dude. The hot skater dude. He was there, at Lismore Skating.

The same dude who was always there, tight t-shirt, ball-crushing Levis tucked into his evil black boot skates. And he’s skating backwards.

And he’s doing turns.

The weird thing was, he must have been in his mid 40s and was the only adult male in the entire building. It made me think that the hot skating dudes from the eighties are still there.

Like when the lights go down and the doors are closed, he’s still in there, humming the theme of Ice Castles, remembering

the glory days when a well executed turn could score you the hottest chick on the rink. Now all he wins is a Mars bar at the canteen and a raspberry slushie. Man those jeans have got to give you some serious prostate problems. I watch skating dude leave the rink. He unbuckles his boots and instantly loses 2 inches, slips on his thongs and shuffles into the carpark, a small lonely figure on a grey day in Lismore. On the rink he’s a King. In the carpark, he’s just another guy in Lismore with tight pants and a mullet. I think I’m in Love.

RENT THE SINGING DOCTOR COMES TO BYRON! Byron is known for its abundant healing modalities, but have you ever had anyone sing and chant one inch from your body for the sole purpose of healing?

Spirit Voice Healing combines sound healing with indigenous instruments, and aims to ease both physical and mental pain. ‘Clients weep with release when particular notes or melodies are sung,’ sound healer Juanita Voz Barea says.

Singing professionally for over ten years and a regular at the Mind Body Spirit Festivals, Juanita was guided to sing into her flatmate’s back to treat chronic back pain. ‘Pure tones radically reduced pain,’ Juanita says.

‘Clients take the 90 minute session home on CD to go to deeper levels of healing prior to their next session.’ To help people access their true voice and feel free to sing

again, Juanita is conducting a workshop over two Sundays August 10 and 17 in Byron.

As a special introductory offer, Juanita is giving free thirty minute sessions for ten Echo readers who register their interest before midnight Friday. Also, the first eight people to book for the two day workshop pay only $100 ($80 discount).

JUST SAY WREN Toby Wren’s fascination with Indian culture began accidentally. ‘It was a chance purchase of a U.Srinivas CD that first really opened my ears to this music.’

Wren is now studying his masters in music which involves exploring his use of Carnatic music in his own jazz practice. ‘It’s quite a difficult thing to study unless you have someone teaching you directly.’ Wren undertook a study tour to India in 2006 and as a result his music now incorporates both the rhythmic and harmonic influences of Carnatic music. While this style of music may not pack out stadiums, Wren believes that it can still be made accessible while maintaining the artistic integrity of the work. He plays the Byron Bay Community Centre on Wednesday and the Starcourt Theatre on Thursday.

CULTURE STANDUP COMEDY BART MC’S WHY NOT Why Not Stand Up Open Mic continues this month with clowny, goofy, bouncy Bart Freebairn at the helm as MC. Bart knocked em dead at this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival with his show ‘Kings of the Watercooler’ a show about animals gathering at the waterhole to discuss the big issues of life. Bart first came to attention back in 2006 when he made the National finals for RAW comedy, since then he has become a regular on the comedy scene, a fresh new voice with an original perspective. The open mic room situated in the funky backroom of Why Not Restaurant in Byron Bay has been operating for three years and is one of the area’s best kept secrets. New and old comics use the venue to try their latest material.

Audience members get to see comedians really work on their feet with a new MC guiding the night each time.

FLEET OF FUNNIES It’s a standup comedy treat at the Byron Services Club when one of Australia’s most talented comics, Greg Fleet, is joined by up and coming standup sensation, David Williams. Standup doesn’t get any better than a double bill like this, where punters get the rare treat of catching Fleety before he heads off to Edinburgh. Fleety is a regular on the International Comedy Festival Circuit, taking his unique brand of storytelling to audiences all over the world. He has a swag of reviews that rave about his peculiar talent. The Scotsman was suitable impressed: ‘Greg Fleet is brilliant … inspired nonsense – utterly fresh, utterly hilarious’. The English are notoriously hard to impress, but the Sunday

Times declared that Greg is: ‘The fastest thinking standup around’, while The Independent in London were gobsmacked. ‘In one hour he succeeds in dragging us to extremes of laughter, embarrassment and pity, but mainly laughter, as he takes us on the emotional roller-coaster journey of our lives. He deserves to be massive.’ Fleety is spontaneous, random and always surprising. A regular on the box, you would have seen him on Rove, The Glasshouse, Good News Week, and most other comedy shows around. He is joined by David Williams, a comic who is now regarded as one of Australia’s brightest young stars. Williams has continued his rise, appearing regularly on Rove Live as he continues to be a popular live favourite standup and corporate performer throughout Australia. David has played the Melbourne International Comedy Festival ever year since 1999 with a new show each year.

Mandy Nolan (that is moi) joins the boys as MC on what is sure to be a raucous ride! Monday at 8pm at the Pandanus Lounge at the Byron Service’s Club. Tickets are $15/20 and can be either purchased at the club or booked on 6684 3443.

TUG DUMBLY AT WRITERS AT THE RAILS ON SATURDAY

DUBBLY AT THE RAILS ON SATURDAY

Simon Smithy aka DJ Strawberry Syme is a colorful local character who, due to his many trades, has his hands in enough pies to open up his own bakery. He is the initiator of the super popular Tipi Zone at Splendour in the Grass and, in four years as the co-coordinator of the space, has given many fresh DJs a chance to shine. Since 2001 Simon has ploughed through piles of records himself finding the jewels with which he continues to entertain punters nowadays more than ever. With regular gigs at Elsewhere and as one of the residents at Liquid’s Saturday night ‘House of Now’ he certainly keeps a professional profile. Syme is part of an exciting local lineup of underground club talent, bush DJs and internationally renowned producers at Splendour’s Tipi Zone again this year. Along with Daniel Webber, Elschorcho, Noodles vs Noel Boogie, Stevie Starz, Jackie Onassid, Josh Niyama, Ish, Fox’n’Cat, Skyz, Sarah Tonin, Dave Basek, Ghettafunkt, refo.rM, Lost

The band is about to embark on a set of dates launching their new album, Styles coinciding with their distribution with Green Media, MGM. ‘We recorded in Sydney with Ian Pritchett – he has done all the Beautiful Girls albums and Angus and Julia Stone, The Fumes stuff as well. Actually a friend suggested him and he knew him and then when we found out what he’d done we looked into it further. We liked the way he worked, he doesn’t produce as such he gets the band where they are. We are only a three piece, and we didn’t want strings and horns, but now we are bringing other people in when we play live, we have a sax player, it’s what we want to do – keep the core and get people into live gigs, I think this first recording is true to where

Q: What is Splendour to you Syme?

A: ‘Well, have you got a day spare? That’s how long I need to share all, I am glad it’s so successful and here in Byron. It gives local DJs, producers and bands an opportunity to share not only everyone from around Australia but international bands, travellers and more.

For me this is what I wanted to create and manifest over the four years I produced/ran the Tipi Forest, to showcase as much of our talented locals in the middle ofan amazing world class festival.’

Q: How do you reflect on the past decade of party culture?

A: ‘The last decade has been an amazing journey and I think the dance scene/ culture is ever evolving and is connecting more and more like-minded people, and although clubs and house parties come and go it simply always gets better and better.’

Q: What is a good club to you?

A: ‘Tasty decor, visuals and a warm friendly vibe from the front door to the front of the dance floor and of course

1. Julianne Moore plays a woman trapped in the claustrophobic ďŹ fties conformity in Far From Heaven (Prime, Friday, noon).

2. A crowd of British commuters turn into zombies in the hilarious Shaun of the Dead (Ten, Saturday, 10.30pm) but as the ďŹ lm implies, how can you tell?

3. For some reason most of the channels bring out their good programs on Monday nights. Now Gabrielle Anwar and Jeffrey Donovan return to Ten (9.30pm) in Burn Notice, a droll series which relies on nifty plot and humour more than shoot ‘em ups.

CINEMA THE DARK KNIGHT Hands up if you’ve ever turned on the radio halfway through a news report about a pop star dying and, when it turns out to be not a Madonna or a Sting, but just some bloke who had a hit in 1991, feel a little bit cheated?

We all go to dark places and, no doubt about it, death and fame are a heady mix. When youth is part of the equation you’ve got a fair dinkum cult just waiting to be exploited – T-shirts with Che on them outnumber those with his mate Fidel by about a million to one. Heath Ledger’s sad and lonely demise in New York was bound to put an extra zero on the box office takings of the new Batman blockbuster – at least in

this country - and, own up, provide us punters with a horribly ghoulish frisson. How unsettling, too, that in this mesmerising performance, we never see the man as we knew him, his face being garishly painted throughout (it is a brilliant makeup job, but you wish at some point for it to be washed away). It would be stretching it, though, to say that it’s Ledger’s movie, for Christian Bale’s caped crusader is equally compelling. In Batman Begins he presented Bruce Wayne as a man with feet of clay, with emotional foibles and uncertainties who regularly needs to call on his old major domo/mentor (Michael Caine) for advice. Confronted with his latest challenge, Batman stoops to conquer. Ledger’s nameless Joker, an unhinged, psychological mess with a mental habit of smacking his lips, is the most amoral villain we have encountered for some time. Uninterested in monetary gain, he would happily see Gotham burn and it might not be drawing too

long a bow to equate him with America’s bête noire, Osama Bin Laden, for this movie is another that deals with provocative issues that have arisen post 9/11. It opens unambiguously with a shot of the city skyline and the camera zooming in on one of the glass-walled skyscrapers. We are in the pilot’s cockpit, getting closer, closer – but the shattering of the glittering facade comes from inside, presaging a theme of corruption within the society under attack.

Rather than shine a light on the virtues of the hero, we are made aware of how easy it is for any of us to behave as do those whom we condemn. How much power can be acceptably entrusted to they who would fight the good fight?

At what point is the mark overstepped? Despite the redemptive conduct of two boatloads of hostages at the end, director Christopher Nolan’s take on humanity is an edgy and disturbing one.

The story is mired somewhat by attending too much to the underworld’s business dealings and, with an apparently unlimited budget, Nolan also falls victim to the prevailing aesthetic of employing every available trick in the SFX and CGI arsenal. The result of the

latter indulgence is that there are a couple of climactic moments too many (here we go again, you think, as yet another gonzo chase and fight sequence takes off – though the lorry being upturned is specky indeed).

So how ironic that the crux of the matter is finally decided by inaction. If a shade too long and not as coherent as its predecessor, The Dark Knight takes us deeper into a consciousness rarely explored by the superhero.

It’s such a shame that the next chapter will be minus its most singular and sinister character. ~ John Campbell

GET SMART Get Smart (the movie) revisits the popular TV series that ran for 138 episodes between 1965 and 1970.

Steve Carell is not unlike the original Maxwell Smart (Don Adams), and Anne Hathaway is in the same elegant tradition as Barbara Feldon (the original agent 99). The other roles include Alan Arkin as Control’s chief, Terence Stamp as smoothtalking villain Siegfried, and James Caan as the befuddled president who has difficulty pronouncing the word nuclear. These amiable actors elevate what may otherwise have been a rather ordinary exercise in nostalgia.

The story is basically what you would expect: nuclear weapons, double agents, exploits gone wrong before going right, plus action and droll humour. Carell and Hathaway work well together – there’s a competitive edge between Smart’s Agent 86 and Agent 99, who have a running gag of oneupmanship when it comes to their gadgets (a miniature blow gun versus exploding dental floss). It’s all good fun and amiable entertainment in which you can leave your brain at the door and enjoy getting on Maxwell Smart’s level. ~ Lounge Cinema

Igor looks faintly shocked when I mention the carrots used for thickening and sweetening toward the end of the cooking process. I had told him that this was one of the little secrets used by Bennelong head chef Guillaume Brahimi when he makes his Boeuf a la Bourguignonne and how attractive I ďŹ nd the notion, a much healthier alternative to the beurre manie â&#x20AC;&#x201C; butter-and-ďŹ&#x201A;ourpaste â&#x20AC;&#x201C; suggested in many other recipes. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The biggest secretâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, he leans forward conspiratorially, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;is bone marrow, whose gelatinous quality provides a natural thickener to the stew.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; This is a chef to whom I should pay heed: he has, after all, committed about four years of research to this classic French dish, alongside others as traditional and as venerable. Boeuf Bourguignon, as it reads on his menu, is one of the dishes he is offering at his newly opened French bistro in Byron Bay, The Petit Snail. A most glorious slow-cooked example of Burgundian cuisine, celebrating the high quality of that provinceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beef and wine, it is a spectacular combination of ďŹ&#x201A;avours, a casserole of meat bathed in a rich wineďŹ&#x201A;avoured sauce with herbs and vegetables and ďŹ nished off, eventually, with tiny button mushrooms and pearl onions. It is one of many examples of older recipes being slowly reďŹ ned into haute cuisine â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and naturally there are scores of versions and variations. Igor the purist tells me that he has tried out recipes dating from the end of the 16th century, which was when the dish began to be documented, with varying degrees of success. The one he has decided is the best is based on one employed by a chef working for Napoleon III around 1830, for which certain rules should be followed. One is the type of meat used. This is, after all, a peasant dish and originally a way of utilising cheap cuts â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;low cutsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; as Igor calls them â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and so ox tail, beef cheek and ossobuco are all recommended, the animal from which the meat derives being no younger than eighteen months old. The size of the meat should be bigger than bite-size; it cooks for hours so it is vital that it not end up a mush. The vegetables to use are onions, golden shallots and a little garlic along with the bouquet garni of fresh thyme, bayleaf and parsley. The

wine, I am surprised to learn, does not need to be a genuine French burgundy at all. Igor does not believe it makes a huge difference, and as long as it is not too acidic, sees nothing wrong with a quaffable dry Australian red, citing fourlitre Yalumba casks as one of his favourites. (â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You can be snobbish if you like,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; he says with disdain.) His Bourguignon he cooks over two days, the ďŹ rst for about four hours over a very low heat, a bare simmer, the second for another four hours. Twenty minutes before serving he fries button mushrooms in butter till golden, topples them in and simmers the lot for a ďŹ nal ten minutes. Scatters over generous amounts of chopped parsley and serves it with nothing more complicated than steamed potatoes and a green salad.

To my sisterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beach-house for my midyear getaway I had brought only Robert Carrierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s inferior version; that combined with my inability in Macksville to locate several correct ingredients â&#x20AC;&#x201C; unsmoked bacon, shallots, and the optional split calfâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foot â&#x20AC;&#x201C; guaranteed that my Boeuf Bourguignon would never meet Igorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lofty standards. I used chuck steak which came ready-chopped in slightly too small chunks; I dared to use carrots (â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;In daubes only!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; had exhorted Igor); there were no bay leaves to be found. I made it in the morning, and that night the four of us sat around a ďŹ re and ate it, accompanied by boiled new potatoes and warm bread. And it was heaven, absolute heaven â&#x20AC;&#x201C; my sisterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s boyfriend apparently still talking about it the following day.

However. Now I must try the real thing!

EATING IN THE DARK Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an idea for adventurous diners. The Walnut restaurant at Royal on the Park in Brisbane city will be blackened out for dinner on Thursday 28 August when award-winning head chef Gary Farrell will serve up a sevencourse degustation menu with matching wines, as the ďŹ rst of a series of Dinners in the Dark planned. Gary says that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about the science of food and the way food reacts with the senses, with diners obliged to rely purely on taste and sound. Cost is $155 a head and bookings can be made on 07 3221 3411.

TAURUS: This week has problem potential if you’re being assertive while someone else is having a fragile moment. But it’s great for taking a fresh look at business practices or partnerships that aren’t panning out and deciding how the best in them can be salvaged and reinvented.

STARS

Sudoku Puzzle

WITH LILITH AS THE SUN AND MERCURY JOIN VENUS IN THE SIGN OF STYLISH, LUXURY LOVING LIONS, THIS WEEK DELIVERS A TIMELY DOSE OF ENTERTAINING GAMES, DRAMATIC SHENANIGANS AND EXTRAVAGANT SPENDING…

To solve a Sudoku puzzle you must place every number from 1 to 9 in: UÊ >V Ê vÊÌ iÊ iÊÛiÀÌ V> ÊV Õ Ã UÊ >V Ê vÊÌ iÊ iÊ À â Ì> ÊÀ Üà UÊ >V Ê vÊÌ iÊ iÊÎÝÎÊL ÝiÃ Ê Õ LiÀÊV> Ê VVÕÀÊ ÀiÊÌ > Ê ViÊ Ê> ÞÊÀ Ü]Ê V Õ Ê ÀÊL Ý°

ARIES: Fiery Aries aren’t at their happiest during the winter chill, especially if a source of funds dries up. But your planetary ruler Mars in Virgo marks the beginning of a new financial cycle, probably via a personal connection with someone who sees your worth.

GEMINI: This week’s people want attention and plenty of it but they’re definitely not into criticism so if you can’t find something to admire, hold your fire. With planetary energy in the sign of self publicizing, best get your latest bright ideas circulating and percolating.

CANCER: If information you receive on health matters doesn’t feel right, get second and third opinions and keep shopping round till it does.

While there’s still plenty of lively controversy and egos on parade this week, family conferences and general problem solving take a welcome turn for the better.

LEO: Happy birthday, magnificent cat Majesties and this week’s simply irresistables with Sun, Venus and Mercury all radiating away in Leo. As a birthday bonus

healing planet Chiron’s offering a relationship breakthrough or closure on an incomplete situation from the past.

VIRGO: With this week’s people into amateur dramatics, a calm mind’s your best friend right now so put the good ship Virgo into cruise control and refuse to be pressured. Apart from that, Mars makes this precisely your kind of achieving, accomplishing week – bring it on!

LIBRA: You’re so not tracky daks types, but whatever the weather this week’s stars want you looking your best. Can Saturn, Prince of Discipline, help you resist those inviting items slashed at the sales? Maybe, maybe not – but it will give you a keen eye for a clever buy.

SCORPIO: One of your planetary rulers Mars in the sign of health suggests it’s time to be nice to your body – appreciate its kindness to you despite how hard you drive it.

While Pluto your other boss planet is highlighting past patterns of not looking after yourself…

SAGITTARIUS: This week’s contradictory. While it lights a fire under the Archerian tush,

it also insists that the more you slow down and listen to your intuition (which will be spot on) the better you’ll be able to take advantage of this week’s excellent career and money stars.

CAPRICORN: Real estate decisions made this week are likely to be right on the money. And if your Capricorn Knows Best attitude meets disagreement, it’s best handled with the F word. Not that one, though it’s tempting – flattery’s much more likely to get you what you want.

AQUARIUS: This week’s for building bridges not burning them, so if you’re tempted to do or say something drastic, don’t – it won’t be worth the trouble that results. Chiron in Aquarius is bringing to your attention unconscious behaviour patterns which could set you free of the past.

At last.

PISCES: This exciting week calls for dressing flamboyantly, taking a risk on an interesting proposition, doing something you haven’t done before, going somewhere you’ve never been. A breakthrough disguised as a crisis could uncover a mine of Piscean talent untapped until now…

considering which team would perform best for Australia.

Other factors such as team spirit, inactivity, attitude, past Olympiad performances, and disciplinary issues were considered to be irrelevant.

As a result, selectors had to struggle with their conscience – follow the guidelines or select the best team for Australia.

In the end, selectors decided to accept the selection rules, but some selectors have already expressed their displeasure at having their hands tied in this way and it is to be hoped that this will result in the selection criteria for 2010 Olympiad being broader.

The player most affected by the restrictive guidelines was the ACT’s Shannon Oliver, who was edged out of the final women’s team spot

by Olympic veteran Biljana Dekic.

The announcement of the 2008 Australian Olympic team this week has elicited mixed responses.

Australia’s open team is the youngest since the 1980s, with our newest grandmaster, Zhao Zong Yuan, on board one for the first time and George Xie making his Olympic debut.

The presence of Zhao and

David Smerdon in recent Australian open teams has inspired some excellent results at recent Olympiads and, with Zhao in career-best form over the last eight months, hopes are high for something special at the Dresden Olympiad in November.

The strength of the open team is shown by the demotion of Grandmaster Darryl Johansen to fourth board, the first time the Victorian had been placed so low since Johansen’s second Olympiad in Lucerne 1982.

In contrast, the Australian women’s team is the oldest for decades, provoking fears that Australia’s declining results at recent Olympiads will continue.

The women’s team selectors deserve little criticism – they were told to select on playing strength alone, instead of

Dekic, like many of the selected women’s team, competes very rarely nowadays but, despite a steady decline from the years when she led the Australian team, is still ranked higher than her younger and keener rivals.

Irina Berezina is also relatively inactive, but her position as the number one woman in Australia has yet to be seriously challenged and she continues to perform consistently well at Olympiads in the tough board one position, so her selection remains automatic.

Australian Olympic Teams: Open 1. Zhao (N) 2. Smerdon (ACT) 3. Solomon (Q) 4. Johansen (V) 5. Xie (N) Women 1. Berezina (N) 2. Caoili (ACT) 3. Nguyen (SA) 4. Moylan (N) 5. Dekic (N)

Sports Roundup with Eve Jeffery

results@echo.net.au

Crankin what’s happening surfside Boardriders The BB postponed their July contest on Sunday due to unsuitable conditions. It will be held next Sunday, all competitors to meet by 7:30am at the Bruns surfclub.

Byron Mal Club Last Sunday dawned as a new year in the life of the Byron Mal club, with the 2008/09 season off to a typical sparkling Watego’s start, albeit a tad difficult in the parking department.

Clean 1 metre waves and offshore winds were the order of the day and the beach crowd was up due to the school holidays, but only 4 of the 6 first round heats were filled, an unusual occurrence that didn’t worry those that showed.

Another great day with great waves followed by soup, sausage sangas and the odd softdrink or two…

A date has been finalised for the club’s annual contest next year; May 8-10, 2009.

What used to be call the Anzac Day Comp (‘cause it used to coincide with that date), can now be called the Mother’s Day Comp – no prize for guessing why.

Six champions were crowned on the final day of competition at the Rusty Gromfest catapulting their names, and careers, to surfing folklore.

The blue ribbon divisions, the 16 years boys and girls,

were taken out by Coolangatta’s wonder-kid Jack Freestone and Newcastle’s rising star Phillipa Anderson.

Freestone, who didn’t catch a wave until four minutes remained on the finals clock, was cool under pressure, meticulously reeling his counterparts in with ease.

‘I just couldn’t get a wave,’ Freestone said. ‘I didn’t freak out, I just stayed calm and waited for the right wave and it paid off in the end.’ Freestone defeated Mitchell Baker (Cowes), Guillermo Satt (Chile) and Jake Sylvester

(Bar Beach) in the final. ‘It’s just an amazing feeling, I’m so stoked right now.’

Phillipa Anderson (Newcastle) was victorious in the under 16 years division, capping off an outstanding Rusty Gromfest campaign.

‘I’m so stoked,’ she said after accruing 10.40 out of a possible 20 in the final.

After finishing second last year in same division, Anderson was ecstatic to go one better. ‘I finished second last year. It was definitely my goal to take it out this year, to do it is amazing.’

‘The standard is so high and with all the international crew it makes it such a good event,’ Anderson added.

Georgia Fish (Flinders), Lyla Wright (Lennox Head) and Naomi Stevic (Castaways) finished second, third and fourth respectively.

Matt Banting (Port Macquarie) confirmed the buzz surrounding his emerging superstar status with yet another big junior title.

Surfing immaculately on his forehand throughout, Banting accrued a score of 16.50 including an impressive nine-point ride that secured his place on the prestigious honour roll ahead of a class field including Suffolk Park’s Sol Bailey, Coolangatta’s Harry Wheeler and Narrabeen’s Cooper Chapman taking the minor positions respectively. Fellow superstar Tyler Wright (Culburra Beach) continued her dominance of junior female surfing, with a decisive victory in the under 14 girls.

Strong throughout the entire event, Wright was pushed all the way by Sarah Mason (Tugun), Manuel Hereiti (Tahiti) and Eden Putland (Cur r umbin

Waters), but was just unstoppable in the end.

Karelle Poppke (Tahiti) took out the under 12 years girls division with a commanding display of innovative surfing.

Accruing a total heat score of 13.65, Poppke accounted for Zoe Clarke (Jan Juc), Laura Poncini (Moffat Beach) and Olivia Wheeler (Coolangatta) who finished second, third and fourth respectively.

In the 12 years boys division it was another international competitor taking home the trophy as South African Benji Brand won the hotly contested final.

Brand was a standout throughout the entire event, using a powerful repertoire to take the title from event favourite Michael Wright (Culburra Beach), Nic Doran (Caloundra) and 10-year-old ace Jack Robinson (Margaret River).

Record holder bends over backwards for Judy

Arm’d but no match for Bankers

Sophie Edington is the current world record holder for the 50m backstroke.

Sophie set the time of 27.67 seconds at the 2008 Australian Olympic Trials earlier this year, and will hop on a plane this Saturday bound for the pool to compete in the 100m backstroke at the Beijing Olympics.

As part of her preparation for her moment in the sun, Sophie has been under the watchful eye of local exercise physiologist Judy Leane from the East Coast Pilates Studio in Brunswick Heads.

Judy, who is a lecturer at the Institute of Health and Fitness at the Kingscliff TAFE, travelled to Thredbo with Sophie, Olympic teammate Lara Davenport and their coach Greg Salter for altitude training last month.

Judy is working on Sophie’s strength and conditioning as well as her flexibility and core stability.

‘It’s a challenge to fine tune their movements,’ says Judy. ‘It is easier with elite athletes, as they are very focussed.’

Judy has a legion of pro athletes in her care and the

Brian Mollet Cricket pilgrims from all over Byron Shire gravitate to Mullumbimby each year for the Nick Shand Memorial series, where everyday sport lovers renew their faith in themselves and miracles occur so frequently some do not even get a mention.

The opening game of the season between the evangelistic Main Armers and dark voodoo practitioners the Left Bankers promised many a revelation.

Peter conjured a win in the toss for the Bankers who put their faith in the new ball, inviting the Arm to bat.

Bourkey and Lons handled the medium pacers well and advanced the score to 40.

With the outfield soft and spongy as John Daly’s beltline, Russell (2-3) decided to take the pace off the ball, bowling in tandem with the World record holder in the 50m backstroke, Sophie Edington takes advice from the experts like Judy Leane. Photo Tree Faerie.

Fawcett Street studio is well equippped for all levels of sportsmen and women.

‘Fitness and good health are a process that is ongoing.

Improving your bio-mechan-

ics is important not only for athletes but for anyone who enjoys any type of movement including all types of sport, gardening or simply walking on the beach.’

Footy, Foody, Foot-ball …

Magpies The Byron Bay junior AFL U14s came back from school holidays ready for action last Sunday when they took on Alstonville for another tight, exciting game.

The weather was perfect, the footy excellent, and a good time was had by all.

The mighty Magpies ended up on top, with Sam, Tully, Ryan, Dan, Simon and Cooper all scoring goals against a strong Alstonville defence. While most of the team had missed some training, they showed they still had the fire, team spirit and determination to win.

It was another fine example of the Magpies doing what they do best – loving their footy and playing to the best of their abilities.

And it worked...

Rams Saturday saw three senior teams played at home. The premiers and reserves played host to the high flying Italo Stars with the 3rds playing Tumbulgum.

The day started well with our thirds completely dominating the Tumbulgum side.

At half time the score line was 3-1 in favour of the Rams. Another three goals in the second half saw the Rams coast home.

The premier reserves were heading for three straight wins as the young Rams side tried to consolidate a spot in the top five.

The first half saw the young Rams completely

dominate the Stars with a fine allround performance.

The slick passing left the Stars side in tatters, man of the match Ollie Bleakley put two away for a 2-9 lead.

The turning pont in the game came when the Rams goalkeeper Sam Abdallah saved miraculously from the penalty spot. This lifted the Rams once again and captain Alex Cruse finished off the game with a double strike which allowed the Rams to win 4-0.

Best for the Rams were Olllie Bleakley and Sam Abdallah. Special mention to Jim Gelagotis who led from the back and James Eggington who doubled up after playing for the thirds.

The Main game saw a reshuffled side take on the high flying Italo Stars and what a fine performance was put on by both teams. Quite obviously the Rams were

there to play and they dominated for many periods of the game with Todd Knaus and Shaun Packham dominant in midfield and the defence with new man Reid Campbell outstanding.

The game ebbed and flowed and in the end it was going to be the one who scored the first goal would who be the winner. The crowd weren on the edge of their seats and sensed a Byron upset but one of the few chances that went Italos way was put away with 15 minutes remaining and that was the game. Best for the Rams were Todd Knaus, Shaun Packham, Reid Campbell and the rest of the defence in an enthralling team performance.

The second division continued on their winning way coming back from Kyogle with a 3-0 win. This keeps the seconds in the top 4.

Byron Cup celebrates 120th The Byron Bay Cup was first run 120 years ago on Main Beach at Byron to help celebrate the opening of the Byron Bay Jetty.

Today the Cup is run as one of the premium race meetings on the Northern Rivers racing calendar, hosted by the Ballina Jockey Club and Ballina Racecourse.

Vying for $22,00 for first place in the Cup to be run on August 2, the day will dispense a total of $81,000 in prize money over 7 events

and the winner of the Byron Bay Cup will automatically be guaranteed a starting position in the Ballina Cup to be run on Thursday September 11.

The club will provide entertainment and there will be live music and of course what race day would be complete without the Fashions on the Field.

For more information about the Byron Bay Cup or other race day events phone the Ballina Jockey Club on 6686 0333.

sonorous witch doctor, Ed. This did the trick for the Bankers who kept the score to 2-61 in the first session.

Bourkey retired at 31, but from there the middle order failed to make much of an impact apart from the improving Kyle.

The bankers covered more ground than an Adventist with a four wheel drive in the field and completed three run outs.

Only a telling dig from skipper Greg (33no) and a late cameo from Bourkey (41) got the final score to a respectable 142.

After lunch the revelations all came from Left Bank.

Openers Zac and Bruce handled Khan’s nippy fast balls with ease.

Bruce found he could loft the ball around with impunity as the Armers showed time and again they couldn’t

catch rain in a bucket.

Main Arm Bruce finally held on to a half chance to deny Zac his 30 but it was clear at drinks that they needed a miracle.

Cameron and Russell needed only 40 off 16 and set about the task with religious zeal.

Brucey looks more like Jesus than most and is said to be possessed by spirits divine and otherwise, with the game already over as a contest he cut a one man swathe through the Bankers, who for a moment looked like they would choke like the shark on the back nine.

The Bankers stumbled over the line however to bring up their first win in the Shand series.

Stay tuned for next week when corporate super-entity the Geckos take on the untested Byron full-tossers.

Many hands make light work for Giants John Campbell Mullumbimby was undefeated in all grades for the third consecutive week when they hosted Casino in Round 14 of the Retravision Northern League on Saturday.

The Giants’ head coach Damon Scott and his support crew of Scott Hogan, Joel Christie and Paul Farmer have created an esprit de corps among their charges that other clubs would do well to emulate.

Injuries and suspension have demanded regular team reshuffles but, without fail, the 18s and the reggies continue to do all that is asked of them when elevated to the next level. And it’s not just the youngsters who have shone. Old stagers such as half Troy Johnstone, coaxed out of retirement to help in a crisis, centre Glen Godbee and prop Adam McKenzie, the strapping on his knees tight enough to do any bondage mistress proud, typify the unity at Les Donnelly Field.

The Cougars caused the patched up home side only

minor anxiety by scoring first, for by half time the Giants had virtually signed and sealed the victory with tries to full-back Jy Hitchcox (2), winger Steve Carsons and second rower Steve Archibald, who is not in the least burdened by the responsibility of having the (c) after his name in the absence of regular skipper Murray Brown.

Upon the resumption, Mullum went over twice in the blinking of an eye. Chad Grant was in first and, only minutes later, Hitchcox scored his third – the speedster might easily have notched a fourth shortly afterwards, but the pass that sent him on his way from Sunshine Jay Hampson was ruled forward.

At 36-4, a cakewalk was imminent.

Maybe the boys’ minds were on the quenching ales that awaited them at the sponsors’ night function, but they began to show uncharacteristic laxness. The pursuit of Casino’s lock when he got a runaway was less than

frenetic and, having survived two white knuckle struggles in their two previous outings, it appeared that the Giants had bundied off.

Sensing that their opponents were in cruise control, Casino played with enough conviction and enterprise to belie the caning that they were getting on the scoreboard. They spent repeated sets in Mullum’s territory, going close a couple of times before their big brute number ten barged over after the Cougars were gifted possession inside the twenty.

The slumbering Giants awoke late in the day, with five-eighth Jason Willis dummying close to the line and bursting through to get a deserved try and, on the bell, Godbee the intercept king latching on to a wayward pass and strolling away from a weary defence.

The final score of 48-12 was a harsh judgement on Casino’s honest effort, but the Giants had outclassed them to maintain their tightrope walking act towards next month’s play-offs.

Mullum to Bruns update With only days until the starters gun explodes, entries are up to 196 in the inaugural Mullum to Brun Run and Walk to be held on Sunday August 3.

Last week Athletics Australia took the final measurements of the course and runners will have accurate km markers, the signs donated

by John McKeag from Brunswick Heads.

There have been a number of enquiries asking whether children could ride a bycicle.

Event organisers want to reinforce that this is a ‘run or walk’ event – they request

that there be no cycling.

Rainbow Dragons Abreast boats will leave Mullumbimby at the event start time and will head to Brunswick Heads along the river.

Depending on the conditions on the day they are expected to arrive at about the time of our Prize Draw.

This coming Sunday there will be a stall at the Bangalow Markets accepting early bird entries, which must be received by Wednesday July 30 either online or by post.

Event organisers want to remind participants that all

proceeds will go to the Brunswick Valley Rescue Squad and the Indigenous Australia programs of Oxfam.

It’s now 10 years since losing you and many things have changed.

Time moves on and pictures fade yet still the loss remains.

Your memory is still so strong, you’re thought of every day.

I still miss you so much, more than words can ever say.

My little sister always, SharniJESS The beating of the rain against the windows.

People yelling....

Sounds of that fire burning The eerie echoes you sometimes hear in your mind.

They get replayed everyday You didn’t make it out of there alive You never lived to tell your story But we, your family, never lose hope And trust that one day the truth will be told We remember what we had then When there was something left to say Mum, Sandra, Aaron & Jared

While Kevin Rudd gingerly prepares for global warming, the bigger threat may be the end of oil, if one believes the Peak Oil theory – and yes, all things do come to an end. Apart from the lack of fuel for cars it also means lack of plastics for computers, for instance.

A fairly convincing and disturbing site on the topic is www.lifeaftertheoilcrash. net. There is still Hope at the bottom of Pandora’s Box, though, so make sure you read the Prepare pages as well at www.lifeaftertheoilcrash.net/Prepare.html.

The Byron push for local self-sufficiency is obviously the go. And it may prove a boost for the new primitivists – see www.primitivism. com.

■ ■ ■ ■ The Council election section of our online forums is hotting up with posts pro and con The Greens’ effectiveness as a political party.

You can read and/or contribute to these posts by logging on to www.echo. net.au and clicking the Forums window at the top of the home page. Among other topics, we’ve set up a forum for conspiracies, so conspiracists should be happy as pigs in UFOs. The forum section is also a good place to post late advice of upcoming meetings under the relevant category.

■ ■ ■ ■ Speaking of elections, the candidates are surfacing already. Along with The Greens, we have Patrick Morrisey, Basil Cameron, Karin Kolbe and the perennial mayoral candidate Nic Faulkner declaring their hands well before the nomination date of August 4.

Other mayoral candidates are expected to be current Crs Tucker, Tardif, Lazarus and Mangleson. For coun-
