ONE SMALL LEAP FOR WHIMSY

Tree removals prompt local concerns Hans Lovejoy

Concerned residents mobilised last Wednesday to highlight concern over the removal of a Melaleuca tree on the roundabout on Fletcher Street next to the Byron Bay library. Coordinator of the action Cheze Malaika told The Echo that the developers of the new construction behind the Great Northern Hotel, Chase Property, have the legal right to remove five trees on the street. Her concern was that there would be more trees removed.

The claims are refuted by Bart Elias from Chase Property and Mayor Jan Barham. Cr Barham said, ‘The original DA for the development – before Chase Property were involved – asked for permission for the removal of five trees on the street.

‘After it was rejected by Council, the then developer Tom Mooney went to the The Land and Environment

court and had it approved. To Chase Property’s credit, since they have been involved they have gone out of their way to work with Council to keep the existing trees. They approached us and wanted to work with us to maintain the aesthetic of the street.’

Concerns this could prompt the RTA to use the DA to widen the road and remove the trees are also unfounded, according to Cr Barham.

‘The DA is specific to this development and any roadworks and tree removal would have to be a new submission to Council.’

Mr Elias reiterated Cr Barham’s comments that there will be no more trees removed from Fletcher Street. ‘It was our initiative along with Council to preserve these trees despite the approvals.’

When asked who gave the go ahead for the first tree to be removed, Mr Elias responded, ‘The only tree that

was removed was done so based on the requirement of the RTA to have four lane access to the roundabout.

It is our understanding that the RTA was adamant that four lanes exist at the roundabout despite objections from Council.’

In related news, a mature Eucalyptus and Paperbark tree were cut down at Byron Bay primary school last Friday. According to Ms Malaika, the Department of Education contracted a private company for the job. ‘Parents were advised there would be extensions to the classrooms, but were not alerted to the tree removal.’

A Fig tree and Poinciana are also earmarked for removal at the school on Tuesday, weather permitting.

Ms Malaika has appealed to the community to be on alert for any more tree removals around Byron Bay. An SMS can be sent to her on 0411 843 384.

Nimbin’s Polite Force case the joint in Byron Bay

Nimbin’s Polite Force showed off its new inflatable Big Joint at Byron Bay last Friday, while issuing Mellowness Cautions as a prelude to the Mardi Grass on May 1-2. Inhale more at www.nimbinmardigrass.com/2009 and see Comment, page 10. Photo Jeff ‘Mmmm:… Inflatable’ Dawson.

Neither mud nor rain nor sniffer dogs could stop enthusiasts from wading into the Bluesfest to see the likes of Seasick Steve, pictured above. Now in his sixties, Seasick Steve won this year’s Mojo Best Breakthrough Act award.

According to his agents Bronzerat.com, ‘Steve Wold left home at 14 to a lengthy freight-train-hopping and migrant-working hobo lifestyle, before eventually “settling” in Tennessee (via San Francisco, UK, Hawaii, Tennessee, Washington State and god knows where else – he married his Norwegian wife 25 years ago and they’ve lived in 56 different houses).

‘He became Seasick Steve fairly recently, so nicknamed after an ill-advised ferry journey… He released the first album by Seasick Steve & The Level Devils in 2004, and just as things started rolling along quite nicely he suffered a massive heart attack and lost his studio. No biggie, makes for a good song or two.… We all love a good story and a good song, and Seasick Steve is king of the yarn, duke of the hot blues lick.’

‘Fringe dwellers’ call for more councillor input A new action group called ‘Byron FringeDwellers’ is calling on Byron Shire councillors to limit staff action on illegal dwellings. In a press release last Monday the group said, ‘We’ve become aware that Council in 2006 passed a resolution to prevent staff from acting off their own bat in relation to holiday letting and requiring them to report to Council before issuing any

orders or instigating any legal action.

‘The information we have is that Council during 2008 issued minor fines over noise infringement but no orders to desist from further holiday letting. This amounts to a moratorium where holiday letting is de facto legal as long as the renters behave themselves.

‘Such a moratorium would be the result of loud lobbying

by absentee real estate interests who seem unconcerned about the effect on local housing stock.

Rural landowners may be assetrich but they are often incomepoor, while their tenants just want somewhere to live. ‘the impact of Council’s compliance regime is disproportionate where in the case of holiday letting the worst-case result is merely lower rental income, but with illegal dwellings the result

can be demolition, removal of a sole income source and the forcing of people out of the area.

‘We ask elected councillors that instead of shooting the messenger or hiding in embarrassment they move a resolution so that after the initial staff investigation, any further action must have the prior approval of the elected Council, with appropriate submissions from those affected.’

Hats on parade

Local man dies following attempted surf rescue A Main Arm man died last Sunday after attempting to save his sister and a friend as they struggled in surf at New Brighton beach. According to a police report, shortly after 2pm

on Sunday a 14-year-old girl entered the waters of an unpatrolled beach at New Brighton apparently became caught in a rip. The second 14-year-old girl then entered the water in an

attempt to help her friend but also began to struggle.

The 35-year-old brother of one of the girls then entered the water and also encountered problems in the turbulent waters. A number of people walking along the beach noticed the trio signalling for assistance and helped them from the water.

The man was dragged onto

the shore where two passing registered nurses commenced resuscitation until the arrival of the ambulance. Officers continued to perform CPR, however the man died at the scene.

One of the girls was treated and released at hospital and the other was not injured.

A brief will be prepared for the information of the Coroner.

When Natasha Gooch was woken up in the early hours to the coughing of her 22 month old baby, she made a decision that may have saved the life of her other two children. Rather than wake baby Kaiden’s siblings and take them with her to the emergency room at Mullumbimby hospital, she called someone to come and sit with the kids while she made the trip.

The downpour during Monday night caused Natasha to be wary of driving conditions and when she approached Mullumbimby Road she was cautious. ‘There was a lot of rain, but not a huge amount of water on the road, just enough to make you slow down,’ said Ms Gooch. ‘After Kaiden was treated at the hospital, I left to go home in the rain. I drove at about 40 kilometres an hour through Mullum and stopped twice due to heavy downpour.

‘As I was coming down the hill to Uncle Tom’s I noticed a van driving up ahead of me. I had no warning or indication that I was heading into trouble and before I knew what was happening, I was stuck in the water. I didn’t see the hazard lights of the van ahead until I was already stalled.’

Having no mobile phone with her, Ms Gooch thought the best thing to do would be to stay in the car with her hazard lights on and try to be calm and wait it out.

It wasn’t until she felt water rising at her feet that she thought she was in serious trouble and she made the decision to get out of the car.

‘At first I panicked and was screaming for help, flashing my lights and honking the horn.

Then I grabbed my son and while he was hanging off me,

YOUR ONE

t 5IFSNPTUBU

Kaiden Gooch was happy to play in puddles on the weekend, a very different story from the early hours of Tuesday morning when he was carried by mum Natasha through the pouring rain and flood water up to her thighs on Mullumbimby Road

I climbed out of the car window. I saw a house nearby and waded through the rising water to get help.’

‘I guess my screaming alerted those in the house, they let us in and helped us get dry.

When the police arrived they were also flooded in for a while and one of them commented on the lack of signage.’

Byron Shire Council’s manager for infrastructure and planning Michael King said staff received a call in the early hours of Tuesday morning that water was over the Mullumbimby road.

‘Staff responded immediately to the site and road closure signs were put in place.’ said Mr King. ‘The rainfall on Tuesday morning was intense and resulted in a number of roads throughout the Shire being closed.

Is this your new business?

‘Council’s advice regarding the crossing of floodwater over roads is the same as the SES. Do not cross floodwater over roads. Even if a road has a water depth indicator, and the indicator is showing low, do not cross the floodwater.

‘If you cross the flood water you are making the assumption that the road is still actually there,’ Mr King said.

Ms Gooch would have heeded this advice if there had been a water level indicator letting her know that the water on the road was more than a shallow covering. She said putting up signs after the road was flooded is too late. With no street lighting and no signage to warn of danger, she continued along Mullumbimby road and became trapped.

Mr King went on to say that Council is reviewing the need

to upgrade flood-warning signs across the Shire.

‘Naturally the impact of the most recent rainfall, the intensity and the damage to the roads will be included,’ he said.

‘Unfortunately Council received advice in March from the state run Natural Disaster Mitigation Program that it was unsuccessful in its funding application for permanent waterover-road signage.’

Ms Gooch, who says her uninsured car was written off, believes that water level indicator signs are a necessity and could save lives. ‘The car is gone and I can’t afford to buy another one,’ she said, ‘but more importantly, I don’t know what would have happened if my other two kids were in the car. I don’t know if I could have dragged all of us through the water to safety.’

Jaimini’s shrine seems safe for now Victoria Cosford

For years local identity Jaimini has meditated in his makeshift shrine on Belongil Beach.

Fifty metres from the carpark, this innocuous construction – wooden platform, large tethered umbrella, rugs and mats – has often been used by backpackers, tourists and other locals as a space for peaceful contemplation.

Such is its inoffensive and benign nature that the owner of the property which stands behind it has never objected to the arrangement whatsoever.

Only twice in the past four years has the shrine been vandalised; it has otherwise been left alone, a sweetly eccentric relic of the mostly-departed Byron Bay spirit.

Recently, however, someone claiming to be a council worker – though not prepared to give

MACADAMIA T H E

C A S T L E

10 minutes south from Byron Bay along the Pacific Highway 6687 8432

Quality systems, built to last

his name – told the owner of the property that shortly the shrine would be pulled down.

Jaimini, understandably upset, contacted The Echo, saying that

this threat has made him very inclined to leave town.

Council spokesperson Donna Johnston said that she was ‘unaware of any ac-

tion’ on the part of a council worker and that as far as she was aware, there was no reason for Jaimini’s construction to be removed.

Virtuoso pianists grace Byron Bay stage Brian Mollet

This Sunday sees the appearance of two of the best credentialled pianists to ever grace the stage at the Byron Community Centre, Oleg Stepanov and Natasha Vlassenko, and their story is one of music and love.

Natasha was born in Moscow, the daughter of the man described as the greatest Russian pianist of his generation, Lev Vlassenko. In Russia the top classical musicians are on the ‘A-list’ of the famous and there must have been plenty of scrutiny on the daughter who also showed promise.

Awarded the prestigious Tchaikovsky scholarship, she qualified for the exclusive Tchaikovsky Conservatory, rated by most as the most stringent and exacting piano course available worldwide. There she started post graduate courses under her father, Lev. Oleg Stepanov was born in Riga, Latvia. ‘It is about as far from Riga to Moscow as Sydney to Brisbane’, he says, ‘but these days you would pass through three countries to get there.’ He won the right to a place at the Tchaikovsky Conservatory by audition. The out of town lad had to compete against other students from schools like the Moscow Central Music School, the highest rated prep course.

Oleg and Natasha met in the first year at the Conservatory. ‘In Russia at the time all the students, no matter where they were from were required to help bring in the harvest. We ended up working on the same farm for three weeks. At the time I had a girlfriend and she had a boyfriend, but that was where we met.’ Both excelled at their studies and won international honours at competitions and plaudits at www.echo.net.au

You can cuddle our baby bunnies, but you can’t take them home.

recitals across Europe.

Gradually their mutual love of music became mutual love, and music. Natasha’s father Lev, who died in 1996, spent the last two years of his teaching life in Queensland at the Griffith University in Brisbane.

Now married and with a ten year old girl in tow, they did a series of concerts in Australia in the early 90s. ‘We were booked to play for six weeks or so, but that became three months, then a bit longer. Then our daughter suddenly started talking English.

Not a word one moment, then out it came. We looked at each other and agreed it was time to settle down.’ Oleg proudly adds that his daughter is now a successful lawyer in Brisbane and Sydney, and says neither has ever regretted their decision to stay.

Patriarch Lev’s last years were spent invigorating the local cultural scene. ‘Lev Vlassenko always said that the talent produced in Australia was the equal of anything in the world. What we lacked was the sort of international standard competitions Europe has to prepare top students for the elite level.’ Both Oleg and Natasha went from studies to success in competitions across Europe, and have convened an Australian and New Zealand piano competition to provide the same opportunity for local talent.

The Lev Vlassenko piano competition sees 20 of the best young pianists selected by live audition, and Oleg points out that past winners of the biennial Vlassenko prize have gone on to win honours in the top European competitions.

Teaching and performing are very different disciplines, but both Oleg and Natasha have

achieved the highest levels in each. ‘The connection you get with an audience when performing is something special. I can tell you though it is just as difficult when it is one of your students performing or being examined in competition, the nervousness, and the thrill is the same.’ Natasha will play music from Chopin and Beethoven including the moving Moonlight Sonata, and her touch and sensitivity was described by a German reviewer as ‘a controlled dive into a miracle composition’. Oleg will present a contrast in styles with one of Chopin’s contemporaries, Liszt. ‘Liszt started out as a bit of a free spirit, a bad boy if you like. By the end of his career he had become a monk. He wrote

music all through this time and that such different pieces of music came from one man is amazing.’ The Steinway at Byron will then swing when both pianists play a selection of music from modern Russian composer Valery Gavrilin, written for two pianists at the keyboard. ‘We learned this series of pieces in Australia but now they have become somewhat of a signature tune for us,’ says Oleg. ‘They are rustic, lively and very Russian, and a great way to end the evening.’ Thanks to the Byron Music Society, after the concert these renowned teachers will conduct a masterclass for local students that will be open to the public.

Tickets to the concert are available from the Byron Community centre.

Becton site on offer Property group Bectonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s controversial 90 hectare North Beach site north of Belongil is up for purchase by expression of interest. Colliers International is handling the expressions of interest until May 7.

According to Colliers, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The most recent development approval for this resort which is still active is to incorporate a resort facility totalling approximately 225 dwellings, associated support facilities together with external works and infrastructure. There is also a previous development approval which is also active and allows for the expansion of the current resort which would total 455 habitable rooms. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;In addition to this there is a current development approval for an art gallery and restaurant located at the entrance of Northbeach Byron enabling the owner to establish a grand

entrance to the site. The site also includes an existing hotelierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s liquor licence, a dormant motel liquor licence as well as substantial grounds/maintenance and operational plant and equipment.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Bectonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s North Beach development failed to happen when the bottom dropped out of its share price and it began a fire sale of assets.

Story & photo Victoria Cosford The day will end with a soiree

How well do you know your community centre? In a bid to enable locals and visitors to see exactly what is offered at the Byron Community Cultural Centre, the doors will be flung open on Monday April 20. From 4pm onward, guests are invited on a guided tour of the facility to find out about programs, services and events available in this amazing space. Did you know, for example, about the multicultural afternoons, or the pregnancy support?

Other services available are financial counselling, community breakfasts, emergency relief, drop-in service as well as the Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s superb theatre, an intimate venue for some of the best live acts brought to the Shire. Organisations operating through the Centre include the Northern Rivers Writers Centre, Bay FM, Byron ACE and the Southern Cross University.

For those interested in finding out ways of becoming directly involved in the Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s operations, there will be a volunteer orientation session at 4.30 p.m.

on the upstairs balcony with music and refreshments.

Trish Denoon has been a volunteer at the Centre for about seven years. She says she started doing it because, new to the area, she thought it would be an excellent way of meeting people â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which proved correct.

According to Trish, the best part about being a volunteer is the huge amount of respect accorded to everyone â&#x20AC;&#x201C; volunteers, community and those in need â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and that there is a tremendously inspiring positive energy around the place. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting having Paul thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, she says of recently-appointed manager Paul Spooner. Being a volunteer includes ushering at theatre productions, waiter-ing at functions, emergency relief, answering enquiries, booking the rooms and showing people around the premises.

Volunteers are always being sought, so if you are new to the area and would like to meet interesting people, this might just be the job and the place for you.

Mr Prior puts down the chalk

After 19 years of dedicated service, the much-loved principal of Goonengerry Public School, Dennis Prior, is hanging up his hat, putting down his chalk and retiring from teaching this Easter.

When Dennis began his tenure in 1990, there were just 16 students, one teacher and an old classroom. Today, there are 66 students, three fulltime teachers, another three part-time teachers, three classrooms, a library and a brandnew kitchen.

But perhaps Dennis’s greatest legacy was his belief in the importance of art and music in the learning program, and thanks to endless funding applications and sheer determination, he helped foster what is now considered one of the and lessons for every student best school musical programs from Years 4 to 6. in the region.

Spaghetti on the road to the Easter Show The Spaghetti Circus Youth Performance Troupe is performing at the Royal Easter Show in Sydney this year.

The fifteen young performers, aged between 11 and 20, were invited to do shows in the street performance area as well as roving characters in the parade and throughout the showgrounds. After the long drive in the Spaghetti Circus bus, the troupe has a hectic performance schedule with four shows a day for two weeks.

The cabaret style show includes acts adapted from the ‘The Super Hero’s Show’ performed in 2008, and some brand new acts.

‘The kids are so excited to be performing at the Show,’ said Simon Adams, Artistic Director. ‘They have been working really hard and coming up with some great ideas. The group has been fantastic to work with. They are so talented and work really well together.’

Discover the mystery of mangroves Brunswick Valley Landcare (BVL) will be holding a community workshop on local estuary issues at Brunswick Heads on Saturday April 18 from 9am to 12 noon.

‘The Brunswick River estuary is a dynamic and rich mosaic of habitats, treading the line between land and sea,’ says the BVL. ‘Come and learn more about some of our valuable but lesser known estuarine ecosystems: seagrass, mangroves and saltmarsh and important issues such as water quality, bank erosion and the Brunswick Estuary Management Plan.

‘This is one of a series of workshops in the BVL project “Protecting biodiversity in a coastal development hotspot” which aims to raise awareness of our Shire’s rich biodiversity and assist residents help protect and maintain our special environmental heritage.

Mr Ross pleaded guilty to polluting waters of Dungay Creek, on a property near Murwillumbah, during a mosquito spraying operation in 2007.

The Court heard Mr Ross applied the mosquito control pesticide Bifenthrin, which is very toxic to aquatic life, around Dungay Creek, some of which entered the waters, killing around 1,000 native crayfish and some insects. Mr Ross had

Art goes on the road in the name of theatre The three hand theatre comedy Art cleverly written by French playwright Yasmina Reza – the rights owned by film star Sean Connery – having played for eight years in London’s West End and a long stint on Broadway, New York, was performed three weeks ago to an enthusiastic audience at the Mullumbimby Civic Centre.

Recently returned to her home town of Mullumbimby from Sydney, Avair Powell was so impressed by the quality of the performance of Art that she immediately wanted to get involved with the Byron Bay Theatre Company.

‘It was a last minute decision to see the show, and I had no idea it was going to be so good.

I just thought: how can I be a part of this?!’

Local businesswoman Daisy Sturn from Oh My Goddess in Brunswick Heads also loved the humour and calibre of the play.

Coming from a theatrical background herself Daisy knows the concerted effort it takes to bring a show to life. ‘It is just too good a production to be presented only in Mullumbimby. It has to go to a wider audience.’

Producer Iris Ray and Director Sandesh Gibney welcome the support of these local goddesses and other generous individuals and businesses such as Santos Trading, The Echo, North Coast Cooking Oils,

ships. The beauty of it being a French play is that, most Aussie men wouldn’t talk about their friendships as a relationship but the French do. One of the lines is from Mark where he says: “I couldn’t love the Serge who bought a painting like that”, an Aussie bloke wouldn’t say that. Mark’s character feels like he’s being left behind.’

when they see one, are inclined to dismiss Turnbull’s critique as just another whingeing, carping piece of negativity.

The very word ‘Broadband’ sounds good; it connotes expansiveness and generosity.

And in the present context it makes Turnbull look very small and narrow.

This, of course, is not enough to explain Rudd’s astronomical popularity. But one reason it has endured so seamlessly may be that after a year and a half his government is yet to experience any serious accusation of rorting. But what about Joel Fitzgibbon’s trips to China, I hear you (or at least Malcolm Turnbull) cry. What about Craig Thompson’s credit card?

Certainly both have attracted a great deal of media attention, but the point is that neither has anything to do with Rudd’s government. Fitzgibbon’s trips were taken in opposition; since taking office he has been squeaky clean. And Thompson was not even a member of parliament at the times of the alleged misuse of his union credit card. Both incidents were at best embarrassing, but to the individuals concerned rather than to the administration as a whole. The government remains impeccable.

This may just be because its members are better at hiding stuff than their predecessors, but it is a gigantic political plus; John Howard must be looking on in envy. Nothing undermines support for a government faster than proven rorting, the snuffling of privileged snouts burrowing a bit too deeply into the public trough. Malcolm Turnbull, unable to make progress on the big issues, must be keeping his ears cocked – but so far in vain.

Rudd’s government remains the least tarnished in living memory. Perhaps the man really is a saint.

Different takes on holiday letting ■ Once upon a time a house was

a home, rather than a property investment. Ah, those were the days, the days before the real estate virus had morphed into a viciously replicating cancer cell that has sucked the life out of hitherto healthy communities all over the planet.

Byron Bay, sadly, has succumbed to a particularly virulent strain, with over twenty per cent of the towns housing stock given over to shortterm holiday letting. Result?

A devastating loss of character and community that is painfully obvious to all except cynics who know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Blinkered by self-interest, these affluenza afflicted profiteers refuse to see or care that the people and businesses that gave the town its heart and soul and unique branding appeal can no longer afford to live or operate here because of the usurious rents they demand for their over-valued investment properties.

Absent the hippies, ferals, bohemian fringe-dwellers, exurban creatives, and a dwindling minority of businesses that reflect the shire’s previous alternative ethos and what are

Deserving of rail I was totally amazed to read about a chap so happily saying he was using buses as his transport and being over the moon they were always half empty.

Exactly! Doesn’t he realise they were nearly empty because most people who travel like to have comfort, and especially those who have any form of infirmity simply cannot mount the buses? For those who can, they find the seats are far too small; those who feel the call of nature simply cannot manage to walk the aisle in surety on a moving bus.

Call to mind the traffic accidents this week from around Chinderah to the environs of

we left with? A soulless hodgepodge, dominated by generic chain stores, fast food joints, and upmarket gift stores, that does not a tourist mecca make.

How galling then for holiday letting apologists to call for an economic impact study before Council belatedly quarantines their noxious trade to specific precincts. That is akin to the fox demanding to know what happened to the goose that laid the golden egg while greedily licking his bloodstained lips.

Varij (Wayne Stuart)

South Golden Beach ■ Over the past few weeks I have been following the discussions about holiday letting in the Byron Shire.

I have been a local to this area for over 20 years and I wholeheartedly agree that residents have a right to a peaceful neighbourhood and a good night sleep. And I, too, have been saddened by the changes in Byron over the past twenty years and the resulting loss of character and atmosphere.

I am, however, confused about two things: Do those people who describe the tourists to our Shire as anything from ‘noxious in-

Bangalow. Blockage of the Pacific Highway could happen at any time.That’s why the rails system should be reinstalled immediately. Those people who are plumping for a horse or bike track in lieu of the rail are not very far-seeing. A parallel track alongside would be great; but once our rail is taken it will never be put back. Even third world countries have decent rail services. Why should a bunch of little Hitlers have the say in whether tax paying citizens, who are increasing in this area by the minute, should be without a reliable mode of travel when emergencies require them to be on the move?

Irrespective of which side of

festation’ to ‘soulless unsmiling pissheads’ never go on holidays themselves? If they do, are they then not tourists in other people’s communities? Maybe their judgement of tourists is impulsive and too generalised?

Some argue that holiday letting is to blame for the loss of community feeling. Then why does Council allow horrible monstrosities to be erected in the middle of Byron Bay? These developments do exactly what? for the community feeling?

I am the owner and manager of a holiday house in Byron Bay and I take personal offence at the awful comments made about the tourists. Almost all my guests are respectful and friendly. These comments are insulting and should not even be published unless the intention is to further inflame the situation.

Yes, in the first few months of holiday letting I had complaints about noise and behaviour. As a member of the HLO I very quickly familiarised myself with their code of practice and had several very helpful conversations with John Gudgeon, their president.

My learning curve was steep and I decided to take responsibility and make the necessary

Council rates

Wildebeest parable

Thank you to Council for declaring that they will not seek another ‘extra’ rate hike.

Can we now ask that Council promise to freeze rates for the balance of its term?

This would be appropriate given the tough economic times we face today, and should be easily feasible, given the many assurances we have had that Council’s financial position is strong.

We look forward to Council

changes to ensure that neighbours would not be disturbed in any way. A couple of weeks ago I received an email from one of my neighbours thanking me for the ‘much improved clientele’.

What we need is not more rules and regulations. We need more self responsibility. Overregulation creates disempowered and resentful people and a split community. Taking responsibility empowers us and brings us together as a community as we are creating solutions that benefit us all.

Owners and managers of holiday houses do need to operate under a Ccde of practice, such as the one from the HLO. I am not happy to be judged and penalised for the actions of those who won’t comply by these rules.

Furthermore, I would really like to hear some feedback from all those who directly and indirectly benefit from the holiday letting economy. Many jobs will be lost and many families will lose their income if Council’s proposed Holiday Letting Model gets adopted.

It will affect you and me and many of our friends.

the political fence is in govern- working for the people of Byment in NSW, northern NSW ron Shire, and promising no more rate hikes. deserves better than this.

system. There is a limit to the number of herbivores that the environment can feed, especially in a drying continent.

The carnivorous habits of us humans are supported by the great herds of domesticated herbivores – cows and sheep – and we are beginning to blame them for the contribution that their gaseous emissions make to global warming!

As Tony Heath pointed out (Echo, March 31), we need 10kg of grains and pulses to raise 1kg of meat plus loads of water and energy to foster the conversion.

Consuming meat really is an environmental burden, as Tony explained so well.

Moral: if you wish to do one thing to save the planet, go vegetarian. Much cheaper and more effective than a Prius, solar hot water or PV panels. But you could do all four – not too sure about the car though!

Plant the verges Perhaps a better option than the mowing of verges that Donald Drinkwater mentions (Letters, March 24) might be their planting with trees so that weeds are largely shaded out and mowing becomes unnecessary.

On inner bends where line of sight is a priority or on verges on the northern side of properties where the owners do not want to be shaded out,

smaller plantings could be considered. Some can be as low as the 50cm high Lilly Pillies or the the one metre Matt Rush (Lomandra).

It seems silly to continue mowing verges as the society comes up against the twin challenge of peak oil and climate change that call for thought on oil alternatives. Furthermore, mowed lawns are soil degrading practice in that soils are provided more by plants completing their cycles rather than having their full expression prematurely ended. The number of animals such as snakes, mice, frogs and lizards using the verges would also tend to increase with other than mowed vegetation.

Sure, roadkill may increase, but the increasing number of roadkill are indicators of the building up of species, and the expansion of habitat is what every conservationist hopes for.

Roadkill is not a problem of the expansion of habitat but of road use by Homo sapiens. We are all now well aware that it is necessary to fit in with, rather than overload and dominate, the environment. It is possible to reduce speeds on country roads. On the day I want to go to town I can get up half an hour earlier for the sake of the roadside animals.

Creating lawn area roadside deserts (Bill Mollison called lawns ‘green cancer’) as a means of lessening animal deaths is equivalent to chop-

ping down the trees so there is no fear of fire. It is the thinking of a society that is pro-death, rather than for proliferation (pro-life-ration).

Ism criticism Re the discussion ‘Israeli-Palestinian conflict’ (Letters, April 7). People should keep in mind that Zionism is a political ideology (as is conservatism, socialism, liberalism, democratism, republicanism, monarchism, communism, socialism and any other political ‘ism’) and is a little over 100 years old.

Judaism is a religion thousands of years old and has nothing to do with the policies of the Israeli Zionist government although the lines between the two seem purposely blurred for political reasons.

We are all at liberty to criticise with impunity the policies of any government should we deem that they do not comply with humanitarian principles.

For instance, if we criticise the Chinese communist government’s policies we don’t get accused of being Opium War deniers and anti-Sinoists.

Criticising the policies of any country’s government has nothing whatsoever to do with the religion or race of its citizenry. Most of us were guilty of giving the Bush Republican government a serve or two but that did not cast any aspersions on US citizens’ races or reli-

Dealing with sea level rise Council General Manager Graeme Faulkner’s explanation of Council’s policy on sea level rise (Echo, April 7) ignores some important issues.

He refers to ‘data supplied by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)’, but the IPCC has not provided any predictions of future sea level rise. They do provide a range of computer model estimates, but warn that ‘this report does not . . . provide a best estimate or an upper bound for sea level rise.’

These computer model estimates do not include any contribution from future increased ice flow from Greenland and Antarctica, and the report

warns that ‘the upper values of the ranges are not to be considered upper bounds for sea level rise.’

Any estimates of sea level rise from melting of Greenland and Antarctic ice are little more than guesses, so there is currently no scientific basis for any firm predictions of total sea level rise to 2100.

The figure of 90cm being used by Council may be a reasonable estimate, but then again it may not be. Any realistic policy for sea level rise must take account of these uncertainties, and should err on the side of caution - residents property and lives may depend on it.

A more important issue from the planning perspective is that Council’s policy ignores what happens after 2100. Sea level will continue to rise for centuries and possibly millenia, and a Council espousing ‘sustainable development’ cannot ignore the implications of this if they want to be taken seriously.

In the ‘greed is good’ 1980s, when anything more than 20 years old was ripe for demolition, there might have been an argument that any development approved now will be long gone by 2100 and any new development would have to comply with any new restrictions, but that decade is

gions. If Protestants followed similar axiom as the Zionist government they could still be accusing the Catholics of being Spanish Inquisition deniers.

are being saddled with the consequences of ‘suburban’ style subdivisions, done on the cheap and driven by good old fashioned capitalism’s single bottom line – not by the intentional communities or triple bottom line of social, economic and environmental harmony that the strategy envisioned and was supposed to engender.

The question is not, is the strategy a dud? But rather, why is the community being continually dudded ?

A pattern has emerged of Council incompetence and weakness in dealing with developer greenwash, at the same time as demonstrating indifference to legitimate community concerns. Developers get the green light, greening their proposals to gain approvals for rezoning, then watering them down at the development stage, while the community is put on permanent hold and left to flap in the wind.

As you have perhaps haplessly pointed out, why should the strategy allow one rural landowner to (massively) develop his/her land and yet not another? Why not let us all massively develop our land together?

There are more equitable and more affordable and more sustainable ways of catering to our rural housing needs and a debased Rural Settlement

Strategy is not a road map we should follow.

Mullumbimby

Failed strategy Partly in response to Fast Buck$: the only reason the Rural Settlement Strategy has never been a success is because its credibility was destroyed the moment Councillors voted to approve it in 1998. Perhaps you were one of them? And can enlighten me how it came to be that a strategy, put on public exhibition after three years of extensive consultation, and generally accepted by the community, was then dramatically changed without the community knowing it, and approved by Council in the space of one week?

It is hardly surprising that those communities who were identified for new CT land releases in the strategy’s rural land release program – when previously they had not been – were upset by this outcome and today, still remain implacably opposed. After all, we are not talking about a dwelling here or a dwelling there, these are concentrated numbers of new houses being proposed around existing settlements like Main Arm. The result?

Desensitised culture The use of drones to attack people is an abomination and an affront to civilised sensibilities. The use of remote controlled, unmanned aircraft to fire high explosive, armour piercing missiles at people in homes, or travelling in cars, is vicious and cowardly.

Yet this is what western powers do, on a routine basis, in Iraq, Gaza, Afghanistan, the tribal border region of Pakistan and elsewhere around the world.

If this is defence, it is ultimately counterproductive.

What does it say about our desensitised culture that this abhorrent practice is permitted and promoted as an advanced way to deal with others?

Woolworths, pollies urged towards acts of good faith ■ Is it arrogance or are Woolworths simply stupid? As stated in last week’s Echo, Woolworths expect to begin building soon in Mullumbimby, acknowledging that they first need to get Byron Shire Council’s (BSC) approval for their onsite waste water system.

The NSW Department of Planning might be easily fooled. Spokesman might proudly claim that their toilets will be of the highest rating, low-flush type and promise they won’t be preparing any

meats until they are able to connect to the town’s new sewage system.

Problem is, Woolworths, that a toilet is a toilet – they collect crap and nutrients and a frequently water-logged urban site with high public usage is no place for an onsite sewage system of any sort. Even a grandma who goes to church every Sunday and sleeps in a single bed couldn’t get a one room dog-house with onsite sewage approved by BSC on such a site.

Do you really think BSC can approve a system that fails to meet the performance criteria it requires of all other applicants for onsite systems?

Do you really think BSC is ready to set a precedent that accepts promises from vegetarian households and approves discounted onsite sewage systems?

BSC in its reply to the NSW Department of Planning stated very clearly that Woolworths sewage proposals are inadequate and would not

receive their approval.

Woolworths must know they have no chance of getting their ludicrously inadequate system approved by BSC and are simply going through the motions of appearing to be doing the right thing. Is their claim to be starting building soon arrogance resting in the knowledge that their friends in Sydney are ever ready to trounce local approval processes?

It seems the rulings of local councils and the views of community are of little concern to

Brighton QLD ■ While Woolworths awaits Byron Shire Council’s signature on their S68 certificate, we all wait with bated breath. This is all Woolworths need to go ahead with their contentious development.

The site of Woolworths’ proposed supermarket in Mullumbimby is floodprone land. Has a climate change impact assessment and flood review been undertaken? I understand that the Minister and councils can only disclaim responsibility for liability for flooding (S733) and impacts of climate change (such as death or disaster) if they act ‘in good faith’.

Is it ‘in good faith’ to approve the Woolworths development on floodprone land (See Local Government Act 1993 no 30 Chapter 17 Part 3 Division 2) especially when Council has informed the Planning Minister (9.12.08) that ‘system failure [of the sewage] has the clear potential to create a public health risk’?

Surviving in the line of fire, and beyond: the story of an With ANZAC Day approaching on April 25, Jeanette Krohn recalls her father’s hardships in World War II y father is going to turn 86 this year. He enlisted into the army, aged 18, only one day after the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbour, December 1941. He was sent up to the Palmerston Ranges, with the other young recruits, to do their basic training in the steep, wet rainforests of north Queensland, in preparation for warfare in the massive ranges of the New Guinea Highlands.

Dad had joined the 6th Division, which was to be sent to relieve the decimated remnants of 39th (VIC), 49th (QLD) and 53rd (NSW), who had just managed to hold the western edges of what became known as the Kokoda Track. The 39th had initially met what was a 10,000 strong, elite, well equipped and trained Japanese landing force and were outnumbered 6-1. The 39th comprised inexperienced Homeland Forces, WWI veterans and young raw recruits, who had been thrown into the New Guinea campaign with the news of an imminent Japanese invasion force.

They were poorly equipped, under-supplied, with meagre

M

ammunition and brave but inexperienced troops. They nevertheless somehow managed to hold the Japanese back with forced retreats, just in time for the 2/14 and 2/16 Battalions of the 7th Division to arrive to relieve them. They were down to their last legs, only 180 men left, including wounded, after two months in continual action.

In the 7th Division records they described the 39th men as ‘gaunt spectres, with gaping boots and rotting tatters of uniforms around them like scarecrows. Their faces had no expression, their eyes sunk back into their sockets. They were drained by malaria, dysentery and near starvation but they had still stood firm and faced down the firing lines of the powerful and well equipped enemy’.

Dad was recruited into the 16th Brigade of the 6th Division as an Artillery Sergeant. They dismantled their ‘25 Pounder Guns’ and carried them in pieces, over the massive Prince Alexander and Torrestelli Ranges to fight their war, pushing back continual Japanese incursions

into the ridges of the Highlands of New Guinea, which are some of the most rugged, wet, steep and wild country in the world.

Some men went ‘troppo’ in

the heat and the wet and the flash floods and the fungus and the dysentery and the malaria and the war. A determining factor was definitely the invalu-

able assistance of the Papuan natives, who carried in supplies and carried out wounded and who knew their country and acted as guides and as a source of intelligence about Japanese movements. The Australians called them the ‘Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels’, with their big hair and irreplaceable support.

At the end of the war, when the troops had to go back to the coast, for transport home, there was a spontaneous event that illustrated profoundly the bond of love and respect that the two different peoples had developed for each other. With the New Guinean women on one side and the men on the other, they had lined the track, as the troops filed past. The women shook every trooper’s hand while their men saluted. My father said, ‘It was quite a long line and by the end, there were tears and many lumps in throats on both sides.

It was so very sad to say goodbye to these brave and wonderful people who had enabled us to win the war. Who had saved thousands of lives and who had forged such a mutual bond of respect with us.’

Dad often told me stories about his war experiences when I was a child. He still had pernicious malaria even then and sometimes we woke at night to his feverish ramblings while my mother tried to wake and console him. One night we woke to the sound of Mum desperately trying to wake him from a frenzied nightmare. Running into my parents’ room, I saw my Dad crouched down beside my Mum’s sewing table, shouldering an imaginary rifle, in hypervigilant alert with sweat pouring down his face and a look of such acute alarm on his face that I could never forget it.

For many years he was unwilling to march in the ANZAC Parade because he said he felt so overcome with grief for all his lost friends and comrades that he could only participate in his own quiet, personal lament.

He never ameliorated his pain with alcoholic self-medication or ever denigrated peoples of other races – even those who had afflicted so much suffering on so many. He always said that there was good and bad in all peoples and you never knew

Australian soldier in wartime who people really were until they were under duress and their real character showed through.

Last year, my siblings and I noticed that Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s short-term memory was getting scrambled and confused. He has since been diagnosed with early stages dementia. As his survivalist personality is slowly diminishing, there is appearing more and more, the tender, sensitive, funny and deeply caring person that my father truly is. One day last year, I arrived at his place to see him sitting in his chair by the window with tears streaming down his face.

He was looking at the photos in a small book about one of his Regimentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decisive campaigns towards the end of the war in New Guinea. On July 14, 1945, the 2/1st and 2/2nd Field Regiments, fired a total of 4,500 25-pounder shells over a 45-minute period in a massive bombardment that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;broke the backâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of the Japanese advance in the Prince Alexander Ranges at a place called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Blotâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by the Aussies. They had been in continuous action in the mountains for 12 months.

After the bombardment all the Gunnersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ears were pouring blood. My Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eardrums were smashed and he lost 50% of his hearing that day. One month later, the Americans dropped the atom bomb.

Because the Japanese communication and supply lines had been finally broken in that defensive, there was still another nine months of difficult â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;mop upâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; operations to be undertaken in New Guinea and its outer islands.

Often starving and desperate, the Japanese didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe that the war had been lost and fought on. During this time, some of my Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friends were still lost â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even though

the war was already over. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t manage to make it home to Australia until April, 1946.

Last year I marched in the ANZAC Parade in Byron with my Dad. We marched together in time. He refused to go in the bus with the other veterans. I felt so proud. He has lived a heroic life. fter the war, he was invited to a Christmas party for returned officers. My mother was dancing for the troops with the Australian Borovansky Ballet and they fell in love. With three children, a war service mortgage, a full time job and studying accountancy, he still managed to top Australia in his Taxation and Management Accountancy Examinations. He became the youngest finance director (37) in corporate history in Oz and was invited to lecture at the London School of Economics

on his â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;revolutionaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; financial structuring of corporate takeover bids in the early days of emerging multinational corporations. He had to face a lot of flak from two of his three children, who were definitely more left-wing/greenie sympathisers.

When he retired at 60, my mother was diagnosed with Parkinsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Disease. He nursed her for 18 years until her death and even still managed to be awarded the Premierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Award for Community Service.

Many locals in Byron would remember him from the years when he still walked the Lighthouse track every second day for as long as he was able. Every person he passed on his walks,

he would tip his hat to and say â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Gâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, no matter who or what they were.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely my hero, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for sure and every year now, I want to hold his hand and march beside him on ANZAC Day. In 2005, after much nagging from family, he wrote his autobiography. At the back he has listed some anecdotes and his philosophy of life. Two of them encapsulates the way my father has lived his life: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;He who remains unconcerned with the evil that befalls his neighbour thereby passes sentence upon himself.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I complained because I had no shoes until I saw a man who had no feet.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;

MOMENTUM ‘Momentum’ at the Tweed River Art Gallery is a splendid and surprising exhibition .

ARTS IN THE NORTHERN RIVERS REGION

CALDERA ART PRIZE

Splendid because of the work of the 25 artists represented – everything from Liz Jeneid’s rows of the most delicate cups made out of teabags, to Mandy Gunn’s shredded inner tubes woven in panels, to Penny Malone’s interactive patterned prints.

Given that there are only 25 artists representing all of Australia, we can be proud that two local women are included. There’s ‘Lace Tree’ by Mullumbimby artist, Lucille Martin: its branches and leaves a wonder of recycled doilies, its trunk, wisps of thread. (Martin also has a solo exhibition, ‘Reconstruction: the genesis of available evidence’, currently at the gallery.)

Surprising because the exhibition title, ‘Momentum’, 18th Tamworth fibre textile biennial 2008 (sic), sets up certain expectations. Then gloriously demolishes them.

This is an exhibition that well illustrates what Kirk calls the ‘slipping and sliding’ between areas of contemporary practice. Works that perhaps best show this are two prints in Annie Trevillian’s Body Wrap series. Trevillian has done away with the traditional print implements of sponge and screen. She has, says Kirk, a new love affair. His name is Mac. She now prints digitally. And why not?

Silver? Buttons? Shredded tubes? The stuff of a fibre exhibition?

In a well attended floor talk at the gallery, curator Valerie Kirk explained the diversity of the exhibition.

Kirk, herself a much praised and exhibited artist, came to Australia from her native Scotland in 1979 to work as a weaver at the Victorian Tapestry Workshop in Melbourne. Since 1991, while continuing to pursue her own practice, she has been head of the ANU School of Art Textiles Workshop.

When first asked to curate the biennale, Kirk had to come up with a theme. So she thought about the history of textile making. All 4000 years of history.

And then she thought about new technology and contemporary arts practice. What, she wondered, is the momentum of this great textile tradition as it moves into the twenty-first century? She had found her title.

Artists responded in all kinds of ways. Kirk wasn’t so much surprised by the myriad styles, mediums and techniques as by the way artists approached the theme.

Their responses were, she said, much more considered, in depth, personal than she had expected. Their stories were highly individual.

And there’s Byron fibre artist/ sculptor, Melissa Hirsch, with her wonderfully tactile, labor intensive, coral-like shapes woven from fishing line.

Momentum is at the Tweed River Art Gallery 27 March – 10 May

c.a.s.e.

Mullumbimby’s ‘Contemporary art space and education Inc.’ – better known as c.a.s.e. – is set to begin a new life. It’s not been about since 2006 when, after five years at the Piece Gallery (Mullumbimby), it went into creative hibernation.

Watch this space for further news, particularly for the exhibition c.a.s.e plans to celebrate World Environment Day in June.

Anyone wanting a get-rich-quick career can forget about the arts. It can be a long, slow time between sales or, in the case of performers, the next show. For every one artist who manages fame and fortune while maintaining integrity, there are countless talented hundreds who just scratch a living.

So art prizes are important. Better still when they’re close to home. Caldera Art 09 is just such an event.

It seeks ‘to promote the value of our region’s flora, fauna, landforms or conservation initiatives, through art’. Last year, the celebratory exhibition of finalists work, ‘Wish You Were Here’ happened at the Tweed River Art Gallery. While the prize purse then was $6,000, organising committee member Andy Reimanis is very hopeful of building that up to $10,000 this year. A substantial prize, indeed.

Caldera Art 09 is calling for expressions of interest from visual artists in any style or medium. Those keen to participate must email (addresses below) at least two images of existing art work with a short paragraph outlining their interests and how they might like to contribute to promoting an aspect of our region’s natural wealth. While those selected for the final exhibition will need to submit work that addresses some aspect of our environment, there is no restriction on the subject of the initial two slides submitted. Any subject is fine. All artists chosen to participate will be exhibited at Caldera ArtFest Tweed Shire Council Civic Centre Auditorium, Murwillumbah, Fri 2nd – Mon 5th October 2009. At a gala event on Saturday 3rd, 40 finalists will be announced.

Their work will then be exhibited at The Centre (Scenic Rim Regional Council), Beaudesert where, on 16 October, the winners will be announced. Good luck to all. Closing date for submissions of the first two slides is 30 April 2009. The organisers ask that files be kept as small as possible. Artists based in Qld, email to : denise.scott@crystalvision.com.au; artists based in NSW or other states email to : info@calderaart.org

CLASSICAL MUSIC Natasha Vlassenko and Oleg Stepanov are about to bring the fine tradition of Russian classical music to Byron Bay audiences. Both pianists trained and began concert and teaching careers in Moscow. Both have won international accolades for their work.

Stepanov won the First Prize and Grand Prize at the international competition â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Music de Chambreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in Florence (1988). Vlassenkoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s major prizes include the Beethoven International Piano Competition in Vienna and the Busoni International Piano Competition in Balzano, Italy. Both now teach at the Queensland Conservatorium, Griffith University.

On Sunday 19 April, both will perform a concert of duets and solo pieces in Byron Bay. Organised by the Byron Music Society, the Steinway recital will include some of the 12 movements of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Russian Sketchesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; by Valerie Gavrilin, a Chopin Fantasie and a Schubert Impromptu.

S.M.L.XL must be one of the quirkier names for an exhibition. But to Wayward Galleryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sculpture curator, Dev Lengjel, it makes perfect sense: from small to extra large. And certainly the exhibited works range across size and sculptural medium.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Wibbly, wobbly woo, an elephant settles on you.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Play dough, rock sculptures, funny hats, music made on shakers, bells, tambourines and clackers. It all seems a long way from gallery exhibitions, classical concerts, or a host of other creative adult works. But, as any educator will confirm, the earlier the better.

Creative Kidz is an initiative of Muwillumbah Community Centre. Funding from Communities of Children (an initiative of YMCA) has provided essential supplies and equipment. Two skilled volunteers, Alexandra Dunne and Sandra Baker, lead the group of parents and children under five years old. Everything that happens during the two hour weekly session, can be easily reproduced at home. And the organisersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; grand plan is that, eventually, the entire program will be parent run.

Already, Jacqui Harris, mother of two year old Jordan, leads the music sessions. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Little children have such natural rhythmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, she says. An opinion vigorously supported by the bounce and prance of tiny feet.

Creative Kidz: every Wednesday 10am until midday.

Murwillumbah Community Centre, Nullum Street, Knox Park. No charge. Booking: 6672 3003 or just turn up. (No group during school holidays)

And what is more, this will be the first time classical duets have been played by visiting concert pianists on this Steinway.

LOCAL SUPPORTERS

t was the legendary Liverpool FC manager Bill Shankly who said what a lot of us have known since day one: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I can assure them it is much more serious than that.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Okay, so the old Scouser might have been joking, but you get his drift.

A new Northern Rivers Regional Rugby League season is at last upon us and a splendid time is guaranteed for all.

Footy fans in our neck of the woods have come to expect a lot from their local flag bearers, Byron Bayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Red Devils and the Mullumbimby Giants, with three of the last five grand finals taken out by the clubs.

Mullum ended a forty-year premiership drought when they defeated Marist Brothers in the 2004 decider and repeated the triumph in 2007, scoring two converted tries in a sensational last three minutes to steal the comp from the Ballina Seagulls.

The Red Devils, risen from the ashes of 2006, succeeded their neighbours as 2008 champions when they got home 25-24 in extra time after a white knuckle encounter with the Grafton Ghosts. The Giants, drawing on a pool of outstanding juniors, made it a trifecta for the Shire by winning the Under 18s and Reserve Grade.

Both squads have lost youngsters to the NRL as well as seeing a number

of regular stalwarts call it quits. Remarkably, from Mullumbimbyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s run-on side of â&#x20AC;&#x2122;07, only Joel Christie started the game against the Casino Cougars ten days ago. Scott Hogan got a couple of tries coming off the bench on that memorable September afternoon at Kingsford Smith Park and, after coaching the Reggies to their premiership last season, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be pulling on the boots again.

Byron have had a similar turnover and will look to the experience of reliable performers such as Simon Kelly, Mick Lambert and Tobin Cupples, but in rugby league,

especially knowing that everybody else will be out to knock them over. As much as anything, the new season will be a test of character for them.

We can wax lyrical, however, about the velocity and continuity, the grace under pressure, the constant scheming to put the man with the ball into a gap, the passing and catching skills â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own up, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the raw physicality that never fails to get us in.

Whether on a sunny Sunday arvo at Red Devil Park, with the salt air blowing in from â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Some people think football is a matter the beach just a stoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s throw of life and death.

Crankin’ what’s happening surfside Ben King Memorial Easter Classic Lennox Head surfer and 2008 Australasian Pro Junior Champion Stuart Kennedy added another iconic title to his resume winning the 2009 Ben King Easter Classic from a top class field including WCT veteran Danny Wills.

The event was held in metre and a half to 2 metre crunching beach-breaks at Broken Head, over 3 days, with over 180 competitors taking part in 12 divisions. Surfers from 9 to 60 years took part, and even the Senior Men’s division had a top class field, with 2 former WCT surfers Danny Wills and Shane Wehner contesting the 4 man final.

The Open Men’s final was much anticipated and did not disappoint, 2 Byron Bay locals and former event champions, Danny Wills (1996) and Yerin Brown (2007), taking on 2 young guns from the Le-Ba (Lennox/Ballina) club, Stuart Kennedy and James Wood.

The final started slowly, but picked up pace when 2007 Champion Yerin Brown scored a 7.17 from the judges for a combination of turns including a reverse re-entry on one of the bigger sets of the day in the 12th minute of the

25 minute final.

But in the 17th minute Kennedy made his move grabbing a medium size set and ripping into it all the way to the beach, punctuating the wave with a huge forehand air on the shorebreak scoring an 8.17 from the judges to back up an earlier score of 5.67, and was not to be overtaken from that point.

As the minutes ticked down there was a flurry of action, first from WCT veteran Danny Wills busting a huge forehand air and landing to score a 7.17 from the judges, and then in the 23rd minute scoring a 5.37 to just fall short of overtaking Kennedy. Kennedy’s Le-Ba club mate, James Wood, then made his move scoring a 6.17 and a 7.00 in two minutes, not quite

enough though, falling short by 0.67 points. It was a thrilling final, with only two points separating 1st to 4th place.

Kennedy took out the final (13.84 points), from Wood (13.17 points), Wills 3rd (12.54), and Brown 4th (11.84 points). Although the Byron Boys placed 3rd and 4th in the Open division, they had some big wins in the Junior Division,

ASP – Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach Kieren Perrow from Byron Bay surfed up a storm in his round one heat at the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) World Dream Tour Rip Curl Pro at Bells Beach on the Victorian south coast last week.

Perrow on 12.50 points defeated Aritz Aranburu from Spain with 12.23, in a very close opening round heat and Lennox Head surfer Owen Wright with 13.50 points easily beat Dane Reynolds from the US on 10.50. Both surfers progress through to round two, which has been delayed due to poor surf and weather conditions, where Perrow will compete against Australia’s Tim Reyes and Wright will take on the current world champ, Kelly Slater.

Five local lads play in Futsal finals Last Tuesday the Futsal Championship Finals for the 15 and under were played out in Alstonville. A group of local boys astounded all when they made it into the finals, as they were the underdogs when entering the competition.

Not much was expected from the team who were the youngest in the comp, the majority of their players being thirteen with the youngest just 12. Looking to just enjoy the season and the sport the team Nat Caldwell, Ben Butler, Zeb Branton, Tai Norton and Sam McCaulley, entered the event with no expectations but to have fun with friends.

To get into the finals the team played off against 7 other teams throughout the season which runs from October to April.

After beating a 15 year old Ballina team the boys entered into the final to be disadvantaged by losing Ben Butler who

attended a state soccer workshop in New Castle. Luckily Nick Steele an Alstonville local who had played with the boys on three occasions throughout the season was allowed to fill his spot. In the finals the boys faced strong opposition against and after an exhausting first 20 minute half rose against all odds to victory finishing with a score of 12-9.

Team members are going on to bigger and better things. Nat, Zeb and Nick were all selected to represent the Northern NSW region over the Easter long weekend at the Futsal Pacific Titles, where they competed against 13 other teams from around Australia, Asia and New Zealand at the Beenleigh Arena.

Nat Caldwell has also been selected to represent the Australian Futsal 14 boys as goal keeper, touring Brazil and Argentina.

Melissa James is the first female president for the Mullumbimby Golf Club a role she is enjoying and she wants all the world to know that Mullum is ‘the friendly club’. Photo Tree Faerie

The Mullumbimby Golf Club has for the first time elected a female president to the Board of Directors.

Melissa James was born and bred in Mullumbimby and began what she calls ‘hacking away at golf ’ as a student at Mullum High and continued to hit the little white ball while she lived in Sydney.

Since her return to the area five years ago, Melissa has been involved with the club and for the last three years was a member of the Board of Directors before her recent election to the presidency.

As well as her new official

role at the club, Melissa is also known locally for her businessLocall Austalis, an internet a telecommunications company that Melissa runs from her home in Brunswick Heads.

Melissa is looking forward to her new role and wants to expand on the constant improvement of the club.

The club currently has the cheapest membership fees on the north coast and Melissa plans to keep it that way. ‘We need to maintain the club’s viability. With the economic times the way they are we will aim to keep our membership fees low.

Being a member of the club is

financially attainable entertainment for the whole family.’

The Mullum club has a membership of over 500, is known as the friendly club and is the only course that allows social players 7 days a week. They also run many charity days and holds one or two mixed days each month.

The course itself provides an excellent challenge for golfers says Melissa. ‘Although the course is nice and flat, making for a gentle walk, it is quite deceptive, surprising even the better golfers’.

Melissa is hoping to live up to the challenges associated with

being president and she welcomes help from other members. ‘The past presidents have put a lot of time and energy into the club but we do rely heavily on and appreciate the efforts of the club’s volunteers.’

The next major event of the club calendar is the Lions Club charity day on Sunday April 19.

Members and non members and non-golfers are welcome to come along and have a game in the mixed event.

For more information about the Mullumbimby club or the upcoming Lions charity event phone the club on 6684 2273 or the pro shop on 6684 1688.

Expressions of Interest are being sought for proposed Aboriginal community development programs and services to be funded that will provide development opportunities for Aboriginal people in sport.

Funding of up to $1,000 per program may be available for suitable projects that meet the priorities of the Department of the Arts, Sport and Recreation for Aboriginal people in sport.

The aim of the project is to provide skill-based sport development programs for Aboriginal people which will hopefully increase participation numbers in Aboriginal people, provide information to allow Aboriginal people better access to sport and to encourage accreditation in programs such as Aust, the Duke of Edinburgh Award, coaching clinics and taping and strapping or sports massage clinics.

Applicants must be servicing the area of Tweed, Kyogle, Byron, Richmond Valley, Lismore, Ballina, ClarenceValley, Coffs Harbour, Bellingen, Nambucca, Kempsey or Port

Final Artisan Market After its six months trial, in Railway Park the Byron Artisan Market will have its last market for the season on Saturday April 18. ‘However, don’t worry, we are only taking a short break over the winter months and will be back trading every Saturday night in Railway Park (Byron) in the 2009/2010, spring and summer months,’ say organisers.

‘The Byron Artisan Market, an initiative of the Byron Youth Service (BYS), is an exciting new market for the shire.

‘Over the past season it has provided a platform for local Artisans to promote and sell their wares, raised much needed funds for the Street Cruise program and provided an alternative, family friendly space in Byron on Saturday nights.’

Byron Artisan Market manager Bilbo Taylor says, ‘The Artisan Market has been a challenging and rewarding project to be involved with.

The next sharing meeting for parents whose child has died at any age is on Thursday April 16 at 7.30pm at the Activities Centre, Baptist Church, Uralba Street, Lismore. For further information phone 6621 4086 or Robin Harrison 6621 5558.

Entertainment manager Renee Simone says, ‘It’s been such a warm and yummy vibe. People have been coming along with rugs and picnic dinners to enjoy the up close and personal experience of local talent.

‘The performers have been hugely diverse in age from 13 to 60 years old with a wide variety of styles including jazz, Latino, island style, country, roots, rock and reggae. The musicians have enjoyed the set up there and are already booking in for next season!’

Entertainment at the season finale is by talented Steiner student singer/songwriter Domini Forster followed by the sensational harmonic island vibes of the Blackbirds.

New film honours Bangalow war veterans Bangalow’s war veterans will be honoured with the launch of a new film by local filmmakers Terry Bleakley and Lisa Sharpe on Wednesday April 15 at the Bangalow A&I Hall at 7pm.

Doors open 6.30pm.

Interviewing a number of local war veterans, Terry and Lisa have produced a fascinating, and extremely moving documentary titled Heart of the Man. The film covers various World War II conflicts, and includes stories of heroism, post-traumatic stress, death and wisdom gained from their experiences in war.

Artie Prentice tells of how he purchased his first home with the proceeds made from selling beer to American soldiers at an inflated price, Russell Blanch recounts when he was

wounded by a grenade in New Guinea, and another interviewee relates the life-changing nature of having taken another person’s life.

Many of us have heard the stories of life on the front line, yet little is told of the feelings, emotions and after effects that remain with those who returned. Presented by Bangalow Historical Society, Heart of the Man is a great leadup to Anzac Day. Tickets are on sale for $10 at Barebones Art Space, Bangalow. Drinks on arrival, and a light supper will be provided.

Music from the era will be performed by Bangalow pianist Anna Samson, and the children from Bangalow Public School will perform a number of wartime songs.

A reader writes: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Cardinal Pell said a non-Catholic health worker in Africa had told him condoms were not an effective solution to Africaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s AIDS problem. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He made the point that the people in remote areas are too poor to afford condoms and the ones that are available are often of very poor quality and werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t used effectively,â&#x20AC;? he said. Gee, imagine if they could afford them and they were of good quality, condoms would spread AIDS all over the world.
