Northern Rivers councils have received a grant of $2 million from the NSW Department of Environment and Climate Change for a regional food focused project known as the ‘Northern Rivers Food Links’. The project will look at sustainable practices and networks in food production, distribution, consumption and waste management. The Food Links project will aim to protect urban communities from the social and environmental impacts of climate change by developing collaborative approaches to sustainable food systems in the region.

Byron Shire Council’s Sustainability Officer, Graeme Williams, said, ‘This is an amazing and complex project for the whole of the Northern Rivers. It has been challenging and exciting to bring seven councils together with major stakeholders, such as the Northern Rivers Regional Development Board and Area Health, to develop a project of this size and scope. ‘It is the first step in implementing the ideas and the passions of so many people to achieve real, on-ground outcomes in relation to sustainable food production and will further Byron Shire’s work in fostering sustain-

able agriculture.’ A free Byron Shire community consultation session will be held in Council’s Conference Room, Mullumbimby on Friday July 3 from 1pm to 2:30pm. The session will allow community members and groups to provide input and begin thinking about what projects and strategies can be delivered in the Byron Shire and across the Northern Rivers Region. Graeme Williams adds, ‘Any groups or individuals with ideas relating to sustainable food or organic waste/ nutrient cycling are encouraged to attend the consultation session that

will result in future project proposals. The Byron community are leaders in local food systems, so let’s keep up the momentum!’ For more details on the project and consultation process please visit www.byron.nsw.gov.au. Objectives of the project include strengthening the capacity of local government to deliver on greenhouse gas and waste reduction targets; closing nutrient and waste cycles through supporting the growth of sustainable food systems; and strengthening the local economy through the development of sustainable food supply systems.

$6 million for catchment repair The Northern Rivers Catchment Management Authority (CMA) has announced its 2009-2010 commitments to natural resource management following the NSW State Budget. The NSW government will invest $6.02 million in the Northern Rivers CMA to manage native vegetation, invasive species, riverine ecosystems, wetlands, soil condition, land capability, economic sustainability, and capacity. This includes $1.97 million under Catchment Action NSW to deliver on-the-ground programs, a 38% increase over 2008-2009, and $4.05m for staffing and the administrative costs of managing NSW Government, Commonwealth Government and all other investment in natural resource management in the NRCMA region. The Chair of the Northern Rivers CMA, Dr Judy Henderson, said the CMA would fund and manage a number of programs including 15 Community Support Officers and three Aboriginal Extension Officers to engage the community and build capacity to look after natural resources. Projects include $562,000 to improve the health of river ecosystems, by assisting landholders to undertake planning and works to improve river health and riparian vegetation; and monitoring fish movements to determine river flow needs and assess barriers to fish passage. Another $90,000 will be spent to integrate natural resource management principles into land use planning, including $70,000 for identification of Aboriginal cultural landscapes. ‘The Northern Rivers Catchment Action Plan was developed by the community to guide natural resource management in the region,’ Dr Henderson said. ‘We consider the community to be our greatest asset. Engagement of landholders, community groups and indigenous community groups is vital to successful delivery of all our projects.’ See more at www.northern.cma. nsw.gov.au.

Byron Community Centre is continuing its Incubator Program with the launch of Voyeur – Byron’s Fashion Exposé. A group of prominent local designers are being mentored by the team behind the Byron Bay Film Festival and are planning a showcase of fashion for Saturday September 12. The event is aimed at both the trade and at consumers, highlighting the talent and range of local designers, as well as seeking to create an opportunity for those attending to place their orders for the next season’s collection. The organisers are looking for accomplished original designers, who design locally and are interested in being part of an annual event. All designers are to be of a high standard, with drive and enthusiasm to see the event through. They must have an ABN and have the ability to showcase and supply a complete Spring/ Summer range. Voyeur is spearheaded by Mark Harlow from menswear line Hussler and is being driven by a collective of

local fashion industry experts which includes Myee Harlow from Myee Carlyle Collections, Georgie Evans from Vinta Enesis, Rachel Bending from Bird, Galit Massuri from Massuri Design and Byron Bay Model Management’s Ashley Geoghegan. Mark said, ‘I feel this is a great opportunity for local designers to join together to showcase the amazing creativity of the Byron fashion Industry. I am proud to be part of a project that offers so much to so many.’ Byron Community Centre general Manager Paul Spooner said, ‘The success of previous incubator projects has included the Byron Bay Film Festival

and we are pleased to be able to join forces with the organisers to mentor and support the Fashion Exposé.’ Byron Bay Film Festival Director and Byron Bay Community Association’s Secretary J’aimee Skippon-Volke said, ‘We’re living in one of Australia’s fastest growing areas for the creative industries and it’s important that we work together as a community to provide outlets and opportunities for all that talent.’ Anyone in the fashion industry, from designers to stage managers, and who is interested in getting involved with the fashion exposé should email fashion@byroncentre.com.au.

Swine flu makes it to Mullum The Shearwater Steiner School parents received a letter last Friday from the North Coast Area Health Service stating that a student had tested positive for swine flu.

ing the time of the illness, and we have not had any swine flu infections since.’ Mr Stevens said that the school was open and operating as normal and added that if parents had any questions about the virus they should contact the North Coast Area Health Service. Visit www.ncahs.nsw.gov.au.

Whales are worth more alive Rob Dalton from Whale Watching Byron Bay and Dean Jefferys from Byron Whale Action Group are two Australians passionately opposed to Japan’s plan to kill 50 Humpback whales as part of its ‘scientific research’ program. To express that opposition Whale Watching Byron Bay hosted a whale watching tour last Friday from The Pass. As the International Whaling Commission, IWC, concludes in Madeira, Portugal, it appears Japan has succeeded in maintaining business as usual and will continue to allocate its own quota to kill over a 1,000 whales under the guise of ‘scientific research’. Japan is continuing to push for commercial whaling off its shores which goes against the whaling moratorium of 1986 and which would set a dangerous precedent that other countries would like to follow. Norway and Iceland have already broken the moratorium and have started killing whales under a commercial hunt. Australia introduced its global cetacean report at the IWC which says 13 million people went whale watching in 113 countries. In Australia, the whale watching industry is worth over $300 million. Whale watching is one of the

fastest growing eco-friendly businesses globally. Rob Dalton said ‘We oppose all forms of commercial whaling including the Japanese scientific whaling program. We are particularly concerned that Japan may include up to fifty humpback whales from the population that migrates along Australia’s east coast. This humpback whale migration is worth millions of dollars to local communities associated with the east coast’s whale watching industry.’ Dean Jefferys said, ‘I sup-

port Australia’s efforts to try and reform the IWC and develop and promote regional non-lethal cetacean research, yet Peter Garrett seems unable to close Japan’s “scientific research� loophole which essentially means nothing has changed at this year’s IWC and even more whales will be killed this year. ‘Instead of relying on the IWC to save whales I would like to see Peter Garrett honour his pre-election promise and take Japan to the International Court of the Seas.

‘As the Rudd government refuses to do this and the IWC seems incapable of conserving whales I am calling on consumers to exercise their power as conscious consumers and boycott the products from the whaling nations such as Japan, Iceland, Denmark and Norway. ‘If these countries refuse to listen to global public opinion on this issue then a global boycott campaign will pressure whaling nations directly to end this outdated and barbaric practice.’

Free training addresses youth anger issues A fitness-based initiative to address youth issues and manage anger has been running in the Byron Shire for the past five weeks, thanks to Byron Bay Fitness Centre. Already producing positive results, it consists of training for males between 14 and 20 in strength and fitness, drawing on disciplines such as Brazilian Jujitsu,

kick-boxing and boxing. The training days are free and take place every Saturday afternoon at 10am. The three instructors currently involved not only teach the boys different fighting styles and army drills but also discuss with them issues such as school, work and violence after the lessons. An address given at Byron Bay High School by instructor Dan Clifton-Northey to Year

9 and 10 boys was the springboard for these training days. According to Dan, there has already been a discernible difference in the attitudes of the boys who have been coming: an increased maturity. Dan describes the program as a ‘ground-level approach to curbing anger and angst and of course boredom.’ He was recently contacted by the owner of a kick-boxing gym

on the Gold Coast, to whom word of the training days had filtered through. Jamie Tozeland of Hammer Gym Muay Thai was so impressed by the concept that he has agreed to donate a range of kick-boxing equipment to the boys. The sessions are held at 1A Banksia Drive, Byron Arts & Industry Park. For more information contact Dan 0401 514 319 or Luke Meir 0431 534 409.

Fluke Matcher development team, Dan Burns and Dr Eric Kneist together with whale researchers Wally and Trish Franklin test drive the new program.

ready it for distribution. Trish and Wally Franklin have had a hand in the development, Trish’s extensive Fluke Catalogue from her research on Eastern Australian Humpbacks in Hervey Bay is being used to intensive test the Fluke Matcher system. Dan Burns is excited about the program. ‘Humpback whale researchers throughout the southern hemisphere and potentially globally will use the program once it is ready for distribution. The program greatly increases efficiency of matching large numbers of

fluke photographs, thereby allowing researchers to get information out much faster and to use larger datasets in their analyses. This will lead to better information on which to base conservation efforts and management decisions for humpback whales.’ The program is ready for use but is undergoing final testing and improvements and will be made freely available at the end December. Whale researchers are itching to get their hands on this valuable tool that will have a huge effect on research and

conservation efforts. ‘There seems to be some excitement about the program,’ said Dr Kniest. ‘Potential users from various organisations from Australia, New Zealand and many of the South Pacific Islands know about the program. We have already had researchers asking if we can modify it for use with dorsal fins for other whales and dolphins.’ Dan Burns says that everyone is excited but wants to see it go through robust testing. ‘Mostly researchers have been asking how long until it’s available!’

WPP a new element in the Byron Bay market mix As ongoing committed partners in the Will of the People Project (WPP), the Byron Community & Cultural Centre, Sustainability Research Institute and Island Quarry have decided to ‘be where the people are: at the Markets.’ Therefore, all previously scheduled events at the theatre or Mullum Hall will now be directly within the realm of the market – unless a special event is announced. The Project manager Ricardo Johansson said, ‘The Will of the People is the community-wide understanding that

emanates from our kitchen tables, rather than from the Parliament in Canberra.’ The Will of the People Project intends to spread worldwide. It’s being launched at the Byron Market and is fully integrated with home-grown on-ine decision-making technology at www.willofthepeopleproject.net. Barbara Keen, who is the current Byron Market Manager as well as being very influential in the development of this partnership, is coordinating efforts to find the proper

‘mix’ concerning Market space size and location. Barbara said, ‘We’re taking a look at the Market and seeing what the WPP can do as a new element.’ Components of WPP will include on-the-spot computer assistance, speakers for issues of community interest, ongoing Open Forums for dealing with community issues, and the introduction of a new community engagement process on sustainable development. Dr Wendy Sarkissian, coauthor of Kitchen Table Sustainability, is offering a two-

hour workshop on sustainable development at each market from July to December 2009. Paul Margolin of Temple Byron said, ‘What Dr. Sarkissian is bringing to the table is very exciting because it invites developers to engage with the people of the Byron Shire prior to initiating a development application with Council. WPP says this new community engagement process provides viable ‘where the people are’ community access points, an integral part of Council’s Policy 3.38.

What does every whale researcher want for Christmas? A Fluke Matcher – a computerised matching system of humpback whale flukes (tails). The system assists in identifying a particular whale based on the marks and patterns found on the fluke of the whale. The Fluke Matcher increases efficiency in matching large numbers of fluke photographs of humpback whales by automating much of the matching process. In collaboration with SCU’s Dr Lyndon Brooks and wellknown local whale researchers Trish and Wally Franklin, the program was developed by Dr Eric Kniest University of Newcastle, Professor Peter Harrison, Director of the Whale Research Centre at Southern Cross University and Daniel Burns who is a PhD candidate at SCU. Since its birth in 2004, the growth of the project has largely involved Dan and Eric travelling to meet at the University of Newcastle and at SCU to develop and test the program. Eric, Dan and Peter received a grant from the Australian Centre for Applied Marine Mammal Science in 2007 to develop the program, and another from the Australian Marine Mammal Centre in 2009 to finalise its development and

Police look for missing girl Police are appealing for help to locate a missing teenage girl. Samiya Raya attended an appointment at Mullumbimby about 11am on Thursday June 25 and then went to a nearby chemist. The 15-year-old Wilsons Creek girl failed to return to school and also did not attend the fast food business, where she works part-time, as scheduled later that day. Her concerned father reported her missing to police about 7.30pm and extensive inquiries

have been conducted since that time by police from the Tweed/ Byron Local Area Command. She has not been in contact with family or friends since Thursday morning. Police have been told Samiya’s disappearance is out-of-character and there are concerns for her welfare. Police are investigating the possibility Samiya might have left NSW and headed north to Queensland. Last year she lived and went to school on the Gold Coast and there is a

possibility she has returned to that area. Samiya is described to police as being of white/European appearance, 175cm tall, with a fair complexion, slim build, shoulder-length bleached-blonde hair and a scar or burn mark on the back of her left hand. Members of the public who have seen or spoken with Samiya since Thursday are urged to contact Byron Bay Police Station or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Fundraiser for Rainbow Dreaming Artists, musicians and performers from across the rainbow region are part of a fundraiser to help send Rainbow Dreaming, the multimedia photo-documentary on the rainbow region, to Woodstock for the 40th anniversary in August. ‘Rainbow Bridge to Woodstock’ will take place on Saturday July 4 at Durrumbul Hall from 4pm. ‘Once again, artists are at the forefront of our fundraising efforts. They have taken

up the challenge thrown by Byron shire mayor, Jan Barham, who made a personal donation to start us off. The challenge: can we realise our dream to make it to Woodstock before 15th August, the date of the anniversary,’ said Harsha Prabhu, co-curator. Organisers are also hoping to collect an archive of locally made documentary films and music to travel with the exhibit. But it’s only going to happen if organisers are able to gener-

ate the money to get to Woodstock. See more on this project at www.rainbowdreaming.org. You can help by making a donation to Southern Cross Credit Union, BSB 802185, AC NO 134992, TF Rainbow Dreaming. All donations of $20 and over will be acknowledged.

Free training for youth in mental health first aid Anorexia Nervosa was one of the topics discussed during the second free training course on Youth Mental Health First Aid in Byron Bay recently. Held at the Youth Activity Centre and led by Nicqui Yazdi, director of the Byron Underage Drinking and Drug Initiative (BUDDI), it attracted about 15 attendees from Tweed Heads to Grafton. The two-day course was made possible by funding

from the Northern Rivers Community Foundation with a $2,000 ‘Connecting Community’ grant to BUDDI, with a focus on targeting individuals, groups and in particular youth who face barriers to social inclusion based on age, gender, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, educational disadvantage, socio-economic status, mental health or disability. Other subjects discussed during the course were the symptoms of and solutions to common youth mental

health problems like depression, psychosis and self-injury and crisis training was given in suicide prevention, panic attack and overdose. Nicqui was delighted with the response to the course and the fact that there are now about 20 more people working in youth-related industries throughout the Northern Rivers who are better equipped to deal with the problems associated with mental illness and drug and alcohol problems. BUDDI was formed under

Shamanism focus of Mullum meet Byron Shire is renowned for its healers and spiritual community, but the time-honoured role of the shaman is also on the rise locally as well as globally, according to Mullumbimby author Rak Razam. What is Amazonian shamanism and why is it important to the world today, as we stand on the brink of environmental change and global transformation? Travelling on a magazine assignment to Peru, Rak Razam set out to discover the answers. He joined a growing movement of Western seekers experiencing ayahuasca – the ‘vine of souls’ – a South American visionary plant that is said to heal, and connect to the divine. Razam’s adventures in Amazonian shamanism are recounted in his recently released book, Aya: A Shamanic Odyssey (ayathebook.com), due for launch in Peru at a shamanism conference mid-July. A fundraiser to help get Rak to Peru is being held this Friday July 3 at the Mullum Drill Hall. This gathering features a film screening of the US doc-

It is technology which of a series of plays performed by London’s prestigious National Theatre. Dendy Byron Bay Cinemas is proud to be one of those involved in this exciting new venture, and will be screening the first in the series of plays, Paul Racine’s Phedre, on July 11 and 12. Directed by Nicholas Hytner and starring the sublime Helen Mirren, pictured, the play draws its inspiration from Greek mythology. It is a dramatic tragedy in five acts and tells the story of Phedre who, in the absence of her royal husband Thesee, declares her love to Hippolyte, Thesee’s son from a previous marriage. First performed in 1677, it was updated in 2000 by poet Victoria Cosford

laureate Ted Hughes who produced a highly regarded free verse translation of the play, which starred Diana Rigg in

the title role. Says Nicholas Hytner of the National Theatre events: ‘(They) are designed to bring what we do on the stages of the National to a far greater number of people than we would ever be able to reach otherwise. Through high definition broadcasts, we have the technology at our disposal to present our productions beyond the four walls of the National, to reach passionate theatre-goers all over the world...’ Tickets are on sale now for the 1pm screenings, and cost $25, $23 concession and $21 for Club Dendy members and for children. These will be the only screenings of the event. Bookings may be made on 6680 8555 or at Dendy Byron Bay Cinemas, 108 Jonson Street.

Plan finalised for Bangalow pool Victoria Cosford

Twelve years in the planning, the Bangalow Pool finally looks likely to happen. With the feasibility study completed, it is now time, according to Michael Malloy, Vice President of the Pool Trust, to approach Council. A final version of the Plan has been drafted for a four lane, 25 metre indoor heated pool flanked by a gym. The site is at the end of the sporting fields (Schultz Oval) near the Bowling Club and would offer, Michael said, ‘a unique facility in the Northern Rivers and certainly in the Byron Shire.’ The Centre’s mission is to be ‘ a centre of 8 June 30, 2009 The Byron Shire Echo

excellence for learn-to-swim activities with an emphasis on leisure water’ (the latter denoting recreational provisions such as a graduated beach-type entry, water slides and fountains). Given that the majority of aquatic facilities within the reach of the Centre are almost exclusively designed and built for competitive swimming, it is highly desirable that these provisions be effected. Reflecting Bangalow and its community- and family-orientated spirit, the facility will also be a model in low environmental impact design through initiatives such as open-air handling, rain water harvesting, pool solar heating, solar

hot water and Sun-Smart design. The cost is estimated at $1. -$1.7 million. So far, the Pool Trust has already raised around $250,000 through the work of volunteers and the community itself has made pledges to assist through in-kind trade contributions of more than $200,000. Michael Malloy is hoping that additional funding may be contributed by federal and state governments and Council; the fact that the project is only waiting on in-principle support from Council followed by the DA application gives him a great deal of optimism that the Centre will be commenced this year. www.echo.net.au

Master plan for Tweed Street, Brunswick Heads The Brunswick Heads community is invited to create a street map of how they would like to see Tweed Street look and feel. Byron Shire Council appointed consultant, Social Habitat, is currently preparing a plan for the street and is seeking community input into the design. Social Habitat spokesperson Malcolm Price said at a meeting with the Brunswick Heads Community Forum, ‘development of a master plan will create a new and invigorated Tweed Street in Brunswick Heads’. Tweed Street, or the Old Pacific Highway, has remained unchanged since 1997 when stage 1 of the Brunswick Heads bypass opened. ‘The street and the buildings have an innate

eclectic charm however the road still looks like an old highway,’ Mr Price said. ‘It no longer requires the highway lighting or the vast expanse of bitumen and has the opportunity to become a tree lined village street with active links to the central business district of Brunswick Heads. ‘A storyboard of the master plan process is on display at the Brunswick Visitor Centre and interested people can pick up and return their finished maps to the centre over the next three weeks.’ According to Mr Price the community mapping process involves three parts. ‘The first is to look at the rich history, culture and environment of Tweed Street and Brunswick

Heads and how it can be reflected in future development. The second looks at how the street functions in the present day and includes the technical constraints such as services and traffic. ‘The third part is to get as many local community groups and individuals from the Brunswick Heads community to prepare their own maps of what they would like to see happen on Tweed Street.’ Over the past couple of years the Tweed St Task Force began planning and surveying the community on issues and opportunities and approached Byron Shire Council to help the community reclaim the old highway as a vibrant village street.

‘Last year, Council agreed to fund a master plan that would guide the makeover of the street in the coming years,’ Mr Price said. In May, Council engaged Social Habitat to begin the master planning process,” he said. Social Habitat will be displaying drafts of the master plan by early to mid August, 2009. Social Habitat will also be speaking about the project at the Brunswick Heads Progress Association meeting on Tuesday July 6 at the Brunswick Heads Memorial Hall at 7:30pm for those that would like to attend.

tor, or at least that it had come from inside Rudd’s office. A thorough check of all the possible computers revealed that it hadn’t, which meant that Rudd was prepared to go straight on the attack. But suppose Turnbull had kept quiet, and the story had really blown up only when Grech gave his evidence before the senate committee. With hindsight, this appears to be the way the caper was

taken an extra day or two, but discovery was inevitable, leaving Rudd triumphant and Turnbull and the opposition – Abetz in particular, who had lived up to his name and abetted enthusiastically – with egg all over them. Any serious analyst would have reached this conclusion. So, again: who set it up, and why? Some really serious conspiracy theorists within the oppo-

Some really serious conspiracy theorists within the opposition have even opined, rather desperately, that it was in fact a Labor sting by Mungo MacCallum scripted, with Senator Eric Abetz apparently wheedling the admission from a reluctant and loyal public servant; yes, he could not tell a lie, he did have a recollection‌ In the event, Grech, perhaps aware that things were not going strictly to plan, added that of course his memory could have been faulty, totally false even. But the revelation was certainly explosive. However, how long was it expected to stand up? Charlton would obviously have denounced the thing as a fraud, and insisted on the sweep of computers which had already been made. Even if Rudd had had doubts about Charlton (which he didn’t) he would have called in the cops; there was simply no choice. And as soon as the cops checked Grech’s own computer they would have seen that the email certainly had been received as Grech had said, but that it had been sent not from Rudd’s office, but from inside Treasury. The fake would have been exposed; it might have

sition have even opined, rather desperately, that it was in fact a Labor sting; that Grech, whom they had considered a trusted informant, was in fact a double agent who had spun his fiendish web solely to entrap Turnbull. Others, more realistic, believe that Grech was just a crank who was so technologically innumerate and politically illiterate that he thought the fraud would not be detected. But if so, what was his motive? To bring down the government? And for whose benefit? Turnbull’s? It really seems an unlikely ambition for the quivering, self-effacing mouse we saw on television. But if Grech was only a minor cog in the plot, or if he had no part in it at all and was just the sucker who received the email, then who was the mastermind? The available evidence would seem to point to Treasury and it is here that Turnbull, Abetz and others have a problem. Of course they are perfectly entitled to protect their sources of information. All worthwhile

politicians cultivate informants within the public service and while leaking is technically illegal, it has always been seen as part of the system. But forging emails is another story: it is unequivocally criminal, and should not be tolerated by members of parliament of any persuasion. The police investigation is proceeding, and initially Turnbull promised to cooperate fully. He has since retreated from that promise and the general mood among opposition members appears to be to lay low and say nothing. In the circumstances it is probably understandable. But if it happens that criminal charges are laid, and that Turnbull or one or more of his colleagues have been involved with the perpetrator, then the excrement will really hit the fan. Much has been written about Turnbull’s impetuosity and his tendency to overreach himself, and most of it is true. But he has another characteristic of which his supporters should beware: he does not know when to let go, and there are signs that he still thinks there is some advantage to be gained by worrying away at the tattered remnants of Utegate. Having admitted on Monday that Rudd had no case to answer, by the end of the week he had resumed the chase, accusing the Prime Minister of misrepresenting his position and demanding that he explain himself. He was loyally backed up by Joe Hockey and Tony Abbott, but the rest of his front bench was conspicuously absent. Those friends he has left should try and persuade him that it is time to cut his losses. Utegate I was bad enough; Utegate II could well be terminal.

Must castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually? In response to Dailan Pugh: over the years I have upheld your opinions of environmental issues, but on the fate of hundreds of Belongil residents who will be displaced and homeless, I beg to differ. It is time the debate gave consideration to the locals who live on the 50 and 100year erosion lines rather than always focused on the immediate impact zone. With the absolute absence of coastal management, the erosion is exacerbated in beach access areas, which Crown or Council manages, and the political vehemence and dogma has led to lack of solutionbased dialogue. Fact: Coastal protection works were permissible with development approval in the Byron Shire Council 1988 LEP. Fact: Planned retreat, DCP Part J is a development control plan (local planning instrument) and as such, has never had the benefit of public submissions or been exhibited as required by state legislation for an LEP. Fact: Belongil beach is not pristine. It has had ad hoc rock protection works and human habitation since the turn of the century. If the frontal dune is breached, it won’t magically return to a safe, natural beach. There will be building and infrastructure rubble, garden refuse, electricity lines, sewage pipes and debris, floating as hazards around our beautiful bay.

Byron Bay There is a popular delusion that the Belongil escarpment is a temporary feature that should never have been built on. Dailan Pugh, despite his long and distinguished record and no doubt with the best of intentions is continuing this fallacy, to the detriment of habitat and us all, as are many green folk. Sandmining was big business for a while on the north coast. Do you know why the Sandhills Estate has its name?

Because in the days before Lawson Street was a glimmer in a grader’s eye, huge dunes spilled down onto the beach. Instead of a drain, a freshwater reservoir could be found there. What happened? Strip mining. Zirkon Rutile Ltd. Dunes were destroyed to get at the ancient sand deposits, densely compacted beneath. Belongil and Tallow copped the same treatment. It’s worth taking a look at photos showing the work taking place. The machinery demolished the front part of the escarpment at Belongil, stopping at the boundaries of private property. The reason the dune was mined was precisely because it is an ancient stable landform. Were it not so, zircon, rutile, and other such minerals would not have been present. Soft sand was piled back up afterwards, giving an appearance of a normality, but the damage was done. A strong, compacted ancient feature was fatally weakened, partly because it was no longer a slope but a sheer cliff, protected only by soft sand that as we know sweeps away, leaving just the impacted cliff with no graduated slope. This is where we remain today. The reality is, the only thing that saved the Belongil habitat from destruction by mining

was the subdivision of 1883. Private holdings blocked the excavators. Without them the dune would be gone and the sea advanced who knows how far. Tallow was not so lucky. Dailan Pugh has questioned my interest in protecting habitat. I do not question his, nor the motivations of any environmentalists calling for nature to be allowed to have its way. But we stand in danger of a terrible and bitter irony. An environmental push to complete the destruction begun by strip mining! The real solution is a simple and stable replication of the ancient slope, designed to trap and hold sand in an open structure while avoiding the turbulence and scouring caused by simple rock deposits. The best example I have seen looks like a long continuous stepped structure of milkcrates. It serves to slow and ‘baffle’ inrushing water, causing it to deposit sand and block the next inrushing wave, thus accumulating sand and burying itself, anchoring the dune. We can all be winners here, but not if we ignore reality and leap at each other’s throats. Keine Nombre

There are also artist studios, yoga and massage providers, and numerous accommodation providers to a bunch of invariably very happy tourists whom many are Belongil devotees. Belongil has the odd millionaire but that is the exception and so what, Barham! There are over 30 affordable housing options alone in Belongil. Many Belongilites have their entire life savings invested in their homes at Belongil. The current state of uncertainty has pushed some residents of Belongil into a state of distress. Belongil represents valuable infrastructure, housing, jobs and tourism. Coastal retreat may well be required to be applied to many coastal areas, however the entire town of Byron Bay is unique, it has geography that lends well to protection from changing natural forces and is defiantly worth the challenge of preserving in full.

ReGenesis responds, Main Armers still up in arms ■ As the owner of ReGenesis Village P/L I would like to respond to the comments posted in the June 23 Echo. It has always been my vision to create a living environment which complemented the existing community and included sustainable practices. I have been mindful of this in my approach to the development planned at Main Arm by ReGenesis Village. Throughout this application process, ReGenesis has attempted to comply with all the extensive requirements of Council, and to make information freely available to the public. Regrettably, misinformation continues to be put forth. What follows are the facts, as I understand them. For technical reasons, Byron Council staff specifically requested the withdrawal of our

original DA and the resubmission of a new one. It was not our desire, or our preference; but we chose to comply with Council’s request. The number of proposed dwelling lots requested in the new Village DA is less, not more, than the original application. The previous DA sought a total of 13 dwellings, while the new DA only seeks 12. The Section 94 contributions cannot be calculated at this time, as the total funds to be requested for local facilities and roads, has not yet been determined by Council. The sales price projected in the news article does not reflect reality, the current market valuations, or my desire that the land be as affordable as possible; nor does it account for the cost of bringing the project to conclusion.

residents of Suffolk Park are worried they will need to travel via Byron Bay to get home when coming from the north. The businesses of Newrybar and the Macadamia Castle are very concerned as they rely so heavily on visitors from the north who will need to exit the freeway at Ewingsdale 14km in advance or double back 8km from Ross Lane. Each party has legitimate concerns. Tensions are running high. The road in front of my house was painted with offensive graffiti. I have been receiving text 8284BSE

Regarding the non-compliance of the proposed buildings – our application has been prepared by a team of highly qualified professionals and engineers and demonstrates total compliance with applicable Council regulations. Council and government officers’ assessment of the application will determine whether the proposal is valid. All ‘green’ eco-friendly proposals are still in the DA. None has been eliminated. In fact, ReGenesis has already complied with its tree planting obligation of 19,000 trees and has initiated an ongoing regeneration program. An endangered species has been discovered and a protection program, co-sponsored with the National Herbarium of NSW and the Botanic Gardens Trust, is underway. Neighborhood Guidelines, that are not onerous to the homeowner, but insist on alternative energy and sustainable materials, have been written. The tennis court, park and gazebo have been deleted from the application as requested by Council Staff. We would be happy to provide one or all of these facilities, if requested. Please note: within the Village, the land has been zoned since 1988 for residential use. Expansion is consistent with the Regional Strategy for the enhancement of rural villages. It was never a Council or developer-led initiative. ReGenesis remains fully committed to creating the most

ecological and livable environment possible in the development at Main Arm. If anyone has further questions about this development, please address them to the ReGenesis Office at 6684 4068 or by email to annecelest1@yahoo. com.au. Elaine Seiler

Owner/ Director, ReGenesis Village P/L Mullumbimby ■ Thanks to all in the community who raised such a stink about Woolworths’ onsite sewage proposals not meeting Council’s guidelines that Council had to defer a decision on it. In Main Arm, developers Davis and ReGenesis are proposing 46 houses and a commercial centre, each with its own individual onsite wastewater system, similar to Woolies, and almost all of them don’t meet Council guidelines. Council and State health guidelines for onsite systems state that the effluent disposal fields should have a 100 metre buffer from waterways, and they should not be on slopes exceeding 15%. The systems for 38 out of the 46 lots in Main Arm fail these two guidelines; some of the proposed disposal fields are within 25 metres of the Brunswick River, and many are on slopes around 30%, twice the guidelines! Council’s own correspondence to one of the developers admitted: ‘… any failure of the systems will result in an almost

messages from people not prepared to identify themselves. I hear totally unfounded and incorrect rumours that I am planning an all night petrol station at the Macadamia Castle. The RTA sits back and observes. They make no effort to get the parties together and resolve the problem. A solution that everyone can live with, that protects the employers of the area and doesn’t affect people’s amenity is possible. But it will only happen if we talk openly and stop playing dirty. It is not acceptable for any of us to be hiding behind

immediate pollution of the Brunswick River.’ If Council can stop Woolies because their proposed onsite system doesn’t meet the guidelines, shouldn’t we expect the same in Main Arm’s case? Ignoring their own guidelines and approving these Main Arm DAs would set a dangerous precedent for other similar Community Title developments proposed for other Byron hinterland areas. Perhaps the greater community should be equally concerned about the potential pollution from 47 of these problematic systems upstream, surrounding the headwaters of the Brunswick River, and tell Councillors that this massive suburban development as proposed would be an environmental disaster. The deadline for submissions on the ReGenesis DA (10.2009.220.1; Parcel No. 214550 & 240324) is Wednesday, July 1. We need everyone’s help to raise a stink, and help stop this madness. Doug Self

Main Arm ■ Council is now assessing the

two Main Arm DAs for 46 lots and a commercial centre and it appears that little, if anything, will be done to upgrade the dangerous access roads and single lane causeways. Every year many serious accidents involving injuries occur on these roads. The roads are anonymous messages, damaging property or spreading malicious rumours. A onesided solution will further divide the community. I call for our elected leaders to show some leadership and help us find a solution that works for all. We are supposed to be an enlightened and aware community. Let’s not allow the RTA to pull us apart. Tony Gilding

Macadamia Castle

What should I do? Thank you, Sapoty Brook, for enlightening us as to the dis-

already way below standards for existing traffic, and with an estimated 42% increase in traffic brought about by the developments, there will be even more accidents. The developers proposed extensive upgrades to secure Council’s vote at the rezoning stage, including widening the narrowest parts of both roads, especially the unsafe single lane section of The Pocket Road, and replacing the Main Arm causeway. None of these upgrades are in the DAs. The developers are even now stating: ‘It is our view that the financial burden of these works should not be the responsibility of the developer…” And Council simply doesn’t have the funds to upgrade the roads. If the developers are reneging on their earlier promises, and refuse to help out now, one would think that Council would have a perfectly good and defensible reason to knock back or delay these DAs at least until the worst parts of the access roads are upgraded. Councillors have a duty of care to make sure new developments don’t have a negative impact on the safety of residents. By approving these DAs without upgrading the roads to the appropriate standards, won’t they have to accept responsibility and liability for deaths, injury, and damage that occur as a result?

The question and the answer? ■ Could someone please let me

know what the real purpose is of our new ‘cycleway’ starting at the corner of McGettigans Lane and Ewingsdale Road. It actually starts in a good spot and looks the part, but it only goes for a distance of about 100 metres then ends abruptly. Where it ends just happens to be a sweeping bend that leads into a almost blind hill where traffic is moving fast. Are cyclists really supposed to cross the road here? A cyclist heading towards town is actually heading into a deathtrap. I haven’t seen one single cyclist use it in the months since it has

been finished. I started to think it may have been built as a sunning platform for local Waterdragons but even they are staying off it. Does Council have plans to connect it through to the Belongil Fields cycleway? If so, when? Wayne Stokes

reticulated supply. It means reviewing S64 (developer contributions) plans and fixed/variable charges to acknowledge water-saving technologies. It means changing the language – words like essential service, potable supply, running water are often used to entrench the monopoly on water supply that the Water Industry assumes it has. As with the power industry, the road transport lobby, supermarket chains and so on, the last thing less imaginative players in the Water Industry Nick Laws want is people to source their Suffolk Park needs elsewhere.

Futile exercise I was driving though Mullum looking at the piles of rubbish on the side of the road, then I started to wonder how much this exercise cost each year and if it was really essential. After all, we worked out how to get the stuff home in the first place, so I’m sure we could manage to get it to the tip just as well. Living in a shire that always seems short of cash I wonder how many metres of bike path could have been funded instead. Luke Lovatt

The water industry It was encouraging to see The Echo picking up last week on one of the most significant long-term planning decisions I have seen a council make. By knocking back the recommendation to build new 6.5 million litre, $1.6 million water reservoir at the corner of Bangalow and Old Bangalow Roads, Council is not buying the old line that it should build infrastructure on the assumption of limitless growth of population, consumption and footprints. The political environment is favourable to at last taking demand management seriously. That means not just throwing some money into subsidies for capital items (dual-flushers, rainwater tanks etc) but thoroughly integrating the business of the water authorities (in our case, Byron Council and Rous Water) into encouraging reduction in dependence on the www.echo.net.au

rent contribution from Roads to Recovery making $520,000 available over the three years. It builds on the $609,000 of federal stimulus funding going to cycleway and pedestrian access across the Shire over the coming year. Council also has a funding application to build a shared path between Bayshore Drive and McGettigans Lane under the ‘Local Jobs’ program. If successful, the 50 per cent Council contribution will be allocated from Roads to Recovery funding.

It helps me reconnect with real situations affecting real people but in some way each issue is an echo of what is going on everywhere, whether it’s the irresponsibility of elected officials, the bigotry of zealots, the supreme power of the elements or the ordinary Jo doing extraordinary things. As I have traded my morning walk along Tallow Beach for the pavements of the West End and Westminster and the Farmers Market for Sainsbury’s specials The Echo helps me to remember that there is another reality out there, where people consciously try to live the best lives they can.

Byron Shire Council’s position on ‘planned retreat’ The concept of restrictions on coastal development has been around for decades and is not a new planning strategy for Byron Shire. According to Mayor Barham, the recent storm event has raised community concerns over what is planned retreat and how it applies to Byron Shire. ‘Coastal councils around Australia are facing increasing pressures in tackling coastal erosion from storm events and as far back as the 1960s the NSW Public Works Depart-

ment (PWD) identified the need for development restrictions in coastal areas at risk from storm events and erosion,’ Mayor Barham said. ‘This issue will only get more critical under rising sea levels. ‘Coastal erosion within the Shire has been considered by the NSW state government, independent experts and Council for decades. A history of cyclones and storms for this area of the coast cannot be overlooked and now we must also consider the very real im-

pacts of climate change.’ In 1978, planned retreat was documented as a possible management strategy by PWD in the Byron to Hastings Point Erosion Study and included in the State Government’s Coastline Planning Manual in 1988. Byron Shire Council adopted the Byron Local Environment Plan and Development Control Plan (DCP) in 1988. The DCP included Part J for development on Coastal Lands. The planning document identified erosion precincts and defined

the limits for development in response to erosion threat within those areas. A public hearing was held prior to the adoption of the 1988 planning instruments. ‘Community members and scientists had the opportunity to address the public hearing and their submissions were taken into consideration prior to the adoption of the planning instruments,’ Mayor Barham said. At the time of the adoption of planned retreat, Byron Shire

Council was under planning administration from the NSW state government. ‘We have inherited a planning tool from the NSW state government and Council has consistently reviewed the strategy in light of further expert reports and studies,’ Mayor Barham said. ‘Council has considered all options that are available to address coastal erosion. ‘In recent years Council has recommitted to planned retreat as other options failed

to address the wide range of issues that council must consider when addressing coastal hazards. ‘As recently as 2006, Council unanimously voted to accept the highly regarded Cape Byron Sand Lobe scoping study and consequently resolved to abandon any further investigation into sand nourishment,’ she said. The Cape Byron Sand Lobe study revealed the complexity of accessing the sand deposit for beach nourishment to support the option of engineering works. A sand dredge from Denmark would have been required to access the deep deposit as no suitable dredge existed in the Southern Hemisphere. ‘The necessary works would have involved many months of disruption with a dredge in the bay and bulldozers on the beaches just to complete the initial nourishment; plus there would be no guarantee that the sand would not wash away in the next storm event,’ Mayor Barham said. ‘Furthermore, the area is a Marine Park and the extraction of millions of cubic metres of sand could result in a large cost to the environment and there was also the uncertainty of approval being granted by the State Government for the work in a protected area.’ After considering various options in the Coastline Management Study (WBM 2004) and the complexities revealed in the Sand Lobe Scoping Study (Pat Brit 2006), Council resolved to abandon any further investigation into sand nourishment and reconfirmed their commitment to planned retreat for parts of the Byron Shire coastline. Council places restrictions on consents to new developments and additions to existing structures. Conditions of approval also identify the need for structures to be demountable and the trigger for removal or demolition is identified. Information on coastal hazards is also placed on Section 149 Certificates to inform prospective buyers of restrictions. Council is currently completing a draft Coastal Zone Management Plan which addresses the Byron Shire coastal zone from the TweedByron Shire border to the Byron-Ballina Shire in the south. A report to Council will be presented on July 2 and will recommend that the draft Coastline Management Plan goes out on exhibition. ‘We encourage the community to review the draft Coastal Zone Management Plan and provide feedback to Council,’ Mayor Barham said. ■ Republished from Council’s website www.byron.nsw.gov. au, www.echo.net.au

Sheoaks take to their wild sport among the HGT Mary Gardner

Near the crest of the hillside along the road are a cluster of sheoaks (Casaurinaceae). Lately, I am quite fascinated with them. I like the way their thin greenery trembles and sighs. Today I have a bad cold and am drudging past. But I am surprised that several of them are waving rusty brown tips in the slight wind. What with all this rain we’ve had, surely they are not drying because of drought? Or perhaps they have too much water and the tips are rotting? But why some and not others right next to them? I stop, sneezing into my hanky. The ditch between us is still draining away water. Standing between traffic and mud, I reach over and gently pull down a branch. The brown tips resolve into 20mm-30mm of knobby growths, set like beads on a string. Oops, I am barging in on something sexual.

world, this idea is tested for truth again and again. To grow sheoaks well in plantations on other continents, Frankia must be added to the soil of seedlings. Can’t select from what is not there to begin with. Maybe everything isn’t everywhere. Other studies watch how types of Frankia vary in sheoaks wherever they grow naturally. The molecular clues suggest that Frankia and sheoaks came together in partnership in more than three different attempts over geologic time. Likely the partnership failed repeatedly too. But finally, a firm symbiosis was established. Selection can be very particular and environments change so much over time. Beijernick did not know about Frankia but he was an early investigator in the idea of symbiosis. Competition was the popular idea back then. Nevertheless, he brought evidence to the ridiculed idea of how my thinking idles along in cooperation. He first identified the bacteria group Rhizobium funny ways. fixing nitrogen in the roots of Symbiosis legumes.

How would specialised bacteria like Frankia find such small roots? What did Martinus Beijerinck (1851-1931) say? Back then, he was a leader in defining microbiology and microbial ecology as scientific disciplines. Oh yes. When it comes to microbes ‘everything is everywhere and the environment selects’. In laboratories around the

This breaks the central tenet of 20th century biology. ‘Genes are inherited vertically’, by progeny from parents through eons. More heresy. There is even evidence that human DNA has parts uplifted from bacteria and even viruses too. Here in the 21st century, this evidence is respectably known as ‘horizontal gene transfer’

(HGT). HGT, along with symbiosis, are now seen as two of the five main driving forces to nothing less than evolution itself. Last July, the Linnean Society of London held a major international conference about these forces. They are the unspoken message in the script of our living, morphing world. All as real for you as the peas in a soup pot stirred by a woman with a cold who has branches of sheoaks on her kitchen table. ■ Mary Gardner is a writer, biologist and tutor.

Ten things about the moon The moon is incredibly close to us here on Earth – only 400,000km away. The next closest thing is Venus, which at its closest, is about 40 million km away. The moon is about a quarter the size of the Earth. This might seem small, but for a moon of an Earth-sized planet, it is very big indeed; in fact, our moon has the highest moon to planet mass ratio of any of the solar system’s 170 or so moons. The moon had a bumpy start to life, probably forming when an early Earth collided with a smallish planet-sized object, with the moon forming from the ejected material. We only ever see one side of the moon as the same side always faces the Earth. This is not unusual as many other moons are ‘tidally locked’ with www.echo.net.au

their planet masters, eg eight of Jupiter’s 63 moons and 15 of Saturn’s 61 moons suffer the same fate. The moon’s pull of gravity is only one sixth that of Earth’s, meaning that everything would weigh six times less there than here – so don’t go on a diet, go to the moon! It is not only water that responds to the moon’s pull. Besides causing Earth’s high and low tides every day, the moon actually causes the ground to move up and down by about 30 cm every day as well. While Neil Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin were the first two humans to walk on the moon in 1969, ten others have since followed, taking the total of moon-walking earthlings to 12. While the heyday of moon

exploration may have passed, investigations still continue, albeit at a gentle pace – currently there are three probes orbiting the moon, the Chandrayaan-1 from India and Japan’s Kaguya and Ouna probes. Enjoy our proximity to the moon while you can, because every year it moves about 2cm further away from us. The next total solar eclipse in Australia, when the moon blocks out the sun for a few minutes, occurs on Tuesday November 13, 2012, but you will need to be in Cairns to witness the spectacle – hope to see you there! – Marie and Philip, from The Starrynight Planetarium.

I am sure most people do not want to perpetuate slavery by buying products that are based on it. It is just a matter of becoming aware of the bigger picture.’ In running the All Natural Expo, Raym hopes people are able to share information in practical ways. ‘Knowledge is power, and I am all for empowerment,’ he says. As well as local producers the Expo has attracted exhibitors from Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Sydney and regional areas, who are keen to display their products and services in this area.

As a child of the Aquarius Festival, it surprises Raym that the call to organic and natural living has finally become mainstream. It poses the question, were the hippies baking their bread and living in forest sustainably right after all? ‘Of course we were! In society ground-breaking ideas are often ridiculed at first, it takes time for society as a whole to change, indeed, society as a whole may even fear change. Change offers freedom and of course there are vested interested who do not want a free thinking population. Who knows where that could lead. ‘The reasons for change have however become blatantly obvious now. If we want our children’s children to enjoy the beautiful planet that surrounds us we must change our values and our way of living. ‘As consumers living in a consumer society, we must take into account the entire chain of events that our purchases trigger and take responsibility for that and all the waste we generate through just living. Let alone living in comparative luxury, which many of us do.’

INFLUENZA UPDATE The World Health Organization has declared the global outbreak of H1N1 influenza (“Swine Flu”) as a pandemic, because it is spreading rapidly around the world. In most people it is a mild disease so Australia has moved its flu pandemic alert level to PROTECT. This means if you have influenza symptoms you may not need to be routinely tested or given antiviral drugs. However, you will be advised to stay away from work or school until you have recovered. The Government will focus on identifying and caring for people who are at risk

The urgent evolution of the conscious consumer Erik Adams

With a population expected to hit nine billion by the year 2050, the force of our collective consumption is the front line of the multi-pronged ecological/ health/food/energy/climate and economic crisis we now face. Right now we have the choice to be either a plague of locusts feverishly demolishing the fruits of our earthly host only to hit the sobering wall of our natural limit, or we can choose to be gentle guardians of this Eden, carefully considering the outcome of our every action on the whole system. Every day, in every moment we have this choice. It’s not out there with the government, with Them, or big business – it’s with you and me. ‘We have to learn how to consume mindfully as a family, as a city, as a nation. We have to learn what to produce and what not to produce in order to provide our people with only the items that are nourishing and healing. We have to refrain from producing the kinds of items that bring war and despair into our body, into our consciousness, and into the collective body and consciousness of our nation, our society.’ – Thich Nhat Hanh, Vietnamese Zen Master and peace activist.

At the most fundamental level of our existence the primary choices we all have to make, every few hours, every day of our lives are food choices. ‘Eating establishes humankind’s most primordial bonds with the natural world. Because it utilises the senses, eating, more than any other human experience, brings us to our fullest and most intimate relationship with the environment. In recent generations this intimate relationship has been shattered by a food production system that has profoundly separated us from nature and from those working the land.’ – Andrew Kimbrell, Fatal Harvest.

After decades of having our food choices directed away from nature and a dramatic rise in lifestyle related diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer, obesity and depression our diet is leading to the decay of our bodies, our mental/emotional health and the earth. Many people are realising that food choices are our most immediate and fundamental way to shape ourselves, our culture and our ecological footprint. You are, we are and the Earth is deeply affected by what we eat. What we choose to consume not only in foodstuffs but also with our senses determines to a significant degree our state of awareness and the reality we

experience. The vibration and consciousness of our food becomes the vibration and consciousness of our being, which in turn influences our state of awareness and further choices. John Robbins in Diet for a New America writes, ‘…the very eating habits that can do so much to give you strength and health are exactly the same ones that can significantly reduce the needless suffering in the world, and do much to preserve our ecosystem... You’ll discover the profound liberation that comes from bringing your eating habits into harmony with life’s deepest ecological basis. You will become increasingly sensitive, and increasingly able

to live and act as an agent of world spiritual awakening.. The act of eating can be a powerful statement of commitment to our own well-being, and at the very same time to the creation of a healthier habitat.’ These concepts are far from new. The ancient Indian health system of Ayurveda recognises the differing energetic qualities of edible foods and how they influence mental, emotional and spiritual states. According to Ayurveda, if we take in food that has no life force, has been produced with the exploitation and suffering of animals, the earth or poorly treated workers, or has been produced with the consciousness of greed, anger or indifference, this energy will begin to predominate in our awareness, disturbing our mental, emotional and spiritual clarity. On a broader scale, if whole societies and cultures are consuming these foods we may begin to see this type of consciousness predominating and increasing within a culture over generations. As far back as ancient Greece, the famous historian Herodotus observed differences in temperament between cultures following different diets. For example, he noted that vegetarian cultures tended to be more advanced in art, sci-

ence and spiritual development whereas meat-eating nations while courageous tended to be war-like and relate to one another through anger, alienation and sensual passions How can you get the most nutrition with the smallest ecological footprint? If the world is to sustain our growing numbers it is now acknowledged that a locally sourced, in season, organically grown or wild harvested whole food, plant based diet containing a high percentage of raw foods has the smallest ecological footprint. Of particular value are nutrient dense organic foods such as wild greens, sprouts, sea vegetables, microalgae, berries, leafy green vegetables, sun ripened fruits and raw nuts and seeds. Such a diet will also give you optimal health and lower rates of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity and a heightened state of wellbeing. ■ Erik Adams is founder and director of Funkey Forest retreat centre where he has been facilitating detox retreats and plant based nutritional education for over ten years. He also works with Byron Bay Detox Retreats and at Santos Wholefoods in Mullumbimby where he established their organic juice and salad bar.

Getting to know Mr Dodson at The Dreaming Festival Adam Boyd-Reid

Australian of the Year Mick Dodson gave this year’s keynote address at the Dreaming Festival to an enthusiastic and committed audience of festival dreamers. It was a milder, more reflective Dodson who took the stage this year, a man who has given his life to the Aboriginal struggle and who can see the first sign of flowering in the wattle. The apology has given new hope and greater dignity to the Aboriginal people but as Dodson is quick to point out, so much more is yet to be done. The key, he says, to deeper, more meaningful reconciliation is a greater understanding between indigenous and non-indigenous Australians. This can only come about through dialogue. At the heart of our mutual failure to understand each other properly is the fact that we spend too much time looking at each other and not enough time talking to each other. He pointed to a study commissioned by Reconciliation Australia in 2008, an important instrument he calls a reconciliation barometer. This study set out to measure the perceptions of core Australian values as they are seen by indigenous and non-indigenous Australians. They asked of each cul-

tural group ‘How hardworking are you, and how hardworking do you see the other?’ How disciplined, how proud, friendly, good at sport, respectful, and so on. Dodson was quick to qualify this work; the study did not tell us who we are, but who we think we are. They found that 100% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander respondents felt that the relationship between black and white was important, but only 91% of non-indigenous

Australians felt the same way. That’s the good news. More than 50% of all respondents felt the relationship between black and white was good, but at the same time more than 50% also felt the relationship was getting better. Only one in ten believe there is a high level of trust between black and white. Reconciliation Australia intends to repeat the survey every few years to chart the progress of Australian attitudes over time. Meanwhile, the important

work of building greater understanding and creating dialogue between the two cultures goes on. One important issue Dodson believes needs addressing urgently is the mainstream media fascination with the failures of Aboriginal policies and initiatives, and the need to start focusing on some of the many successes of Aboriginal management, leadership and business initiatives. Naturally enough, this is the aim of the Dreaming Festival itself.

This year’s lineup was another triumph from artistic director Rhoda Roberts. While there were plenty of outstanding individual performers in the festival (the consistently wonderful Mihirangi springs to mind, and the accomplished didge/ guitar player William Barton) the unwritten lore seemed to be ‘bigger is better’. The ballsy new act One Blood Hidden Image, a five piece Hip Hop and rap outfit from the Torres Strait with their big beats and bass, looked and sounded like there were a dozen people on stage. The fabulous twelve piece percussive group The Rhythm Hunters with their eclectic combination of frame drums, kettle gongs and log drums sounded like a band of fifty while the heart warmingly beautiful Gondwana Indigenous Children’s Choir and the Sydney Children’s Choir looked like a hundred, because, well, there were. Not a dry eye in the place. Each of these bands was emblematic of the kind of practice that Aboriginal leaders are advocating, where black and white stand shoulder to shoulder with their brothers and sisters from Asia, the Pacific, Africa and South America to make something profound and beautiful and meaningful. Over in the dance arenas was

the extraordinary and elegant ‘Reliquary’, an Aboriginal/ Korean collaboration by Gina Rings and Soo Yuen You leading a team of highly talented dancers to show how aboriginal myths, symbols and beliefs can speak so elegantly with other cultures and how, at the heart of creative engagement, we find we really are one, in body and spirit. New Zealand performers also made a strong contribution to the festival this year with the powerful vocal work of Moana and the Tribe, a stirring theatrical performance about love, faith and loss, called Te Karakia and Pacific Curls, a three woman line up fusing the vocal traditions of the Maori and the Pacific, with occasional Celtic influences. These are just a few of the many works on offer from the land of the long white cloud. As usual there were so many outstanding performers and artists at this year’s festival that it feels shabby not to mention them all by name. Sadly a lack of space prevents that, but what is important to recognise is that when Mick Dodson talks about improving the dialogue between indigenous and nonindigenous Australians, there is a growing number of artists quietly working on doing exactly that. Living the dream.

How to make a rabbit plague sexy and sell books

Russell Eldridge

Dear Publisher, I’ve got this idea for a book and I hope you’ll be interested. It’s about a famous French scientist struggling to convince a sceptical 19th Century world that he has the answer to combat certain fatal diseases. He desperately needs money to establish a research laboratory to save human lives, and one day he reads a newspaper ad offering a $10 million dollar prize for anyone who can find a solution to a pest plague of biblical proportions that is threatening the economy of an exotic colony across the other side of the world. The famous scientist knows he has just the cure for the problem … Dear Prospective Author, Sounds a bit far-fetched, but what the hell, they published Oscar and Lucinda. But the disease angle could put off a few readers. Is there any way you can get a bit of action into it, and appeal to a wider readership? Dear Publisher, OK, how’s this: The famous scientist cre-

Author Stephen Dando-Collins.

ates a potent poison to combat the pest plague, suspends it in a beef broth, seals it and despatches the poison in the care of his handsome young nephew on a hazardous sixweek sea voyage to the distant land. On arrival, the handsome young nephew and his poison is denied entry to the colony and faces a series of disasters, setbacks, political meddling and downright sabotage. I can give you sweeping plains, rugged outback characters, crooked politicians, scheming squatters, and so on. Dear Prospective Author, Unfortunately, Baz Luhrmann cornered the market on outback schmaltz. But what about something with a common urban touch? You know, for airport readers who’ve been bumped off their Jetstar flight. Dear Publisher, No worries: The handsome young nephew languishes in an adjoining colony. He is desperately short of

money and is on the verge of returning home when a local brewer approaches him, having heard of his famous uncle’s techniques to improve beer brewing. The handsome young nephew rises to the challenge and is astonished at the huge reward the brewer gives him. It’s more than enough to continue his work. Meanwhile, the delighted brewer goes on to become the nation’s most successful beer manufacturer. Dear Prospective Author, Nice. Quintessentially Aussie. But what about some intrigue to turn the page? Dear Publisher, Ha! you read my mind. OK, so the handsome young nephew eventually starts his tests in the new colony with good prospects of winning the reward. Back home in France, his famous uncle is so confident, he starts building the research instititute, with investments from the crowned heads of Europe. But

he has a fierce scientific rival, a German Nobel Prize-winning scientist who discredits his methods. In a nasty twist, the colonial committee overseeing the prize secretly contacts the German rival and gets him to send a similar poison culture so it can bypass the handsome young nephew’s experiments. Dear Prospective Author, Can you give the German a scary moustache and those little round-rimmed glasses that glint? It would be nice if we could also get the Vatican involved and some secret religious societies. Can we give the story a bigger backdrop? Dear Publisher, Oh yes. Can do with the moustache and the glasses. Can’t do Vatican. But how’s this: The main supporter of the reward scheme is a larger-than-life character who is the Premier of the colony. He actually uses the pest plague and the $10 million reward scheme to further his plans to unite all the colonies in the region. Is nation-building a big enough backdrop? Dear Prospective Author, Ye-e-es, maybe not as exciting as angels and demons. But of course you realise the story lacks the key ingredient. Sex. Dear Publisher, Ah but the handsome young nephew is French! How about he comes to the rescue of the world’s

most famous actress while she is visiting the colony on a world tour. He helps her with quarantine problems for her pet dogs. While he perfects his vaccines, they have a torrid romance, including blissful liaisons on an island in the harbour. Dear Prospective Author, All right, steady on, we’ll give it a shot. You do have a vivid im-

agination, Mr Prospective Author. By the way, does he win the reward? Dear Publisher, Publish me and you’ll find out. One last thing. It’s all true. ■ Russell Eldridge will discuss Pasteur’s Gambit in conversation with the author at the Byron Bay Writers festival.

Growing up the son of a standup comedian can affect you forever. For Jordie Lane, performance and story telling are in his blood, thanks to mum, Denise Scott, who is appearing as a guest author at the Writer’s Festival this year. ‘You grow up knowing you can’t be too sensitive about your mum taking the piss out of you! My mum has always done it with a lot of love. You learn that nothing was sacred. You’ll be sitting around the dinner table and she’ll be telling some story about something mundane that happened on a tram ride, and it’s totally funny. It was what inspired me, to be a singer songwriter I think. ‘ Jordie’s latest album, Sleeping Patterns was produced by Jeff Lang and Tim Hall. It’s an impressive listen, a musical narrative posited somewhere between Don Walker and Daniel Lanois. It’s an album that Jordie is happy with, although he can’t help but think about what he should change. ‘I am someone that probably is too much of a perfectionist: the more I listen, the more I pick at it and find things about it that I wish I could do again and do differently, it was really great to have it produced by Jeff and Tim. Tim fills in the gaps that Jeff misses, he focuses more

on the structure of the song and Jeff is on with the instruments – he’ll sit there with the drummer and go, just there, hit the high hat now.’

‘We ended up recording 14 songs, and I was pretty happy with it. As time passed and I did another album release under the name Fireside Bellows, I had six months to sit on it and I decided to take three tracks off the album.’

The album is punctuated by a deep low horn. I thought it was the bassoon. Turns out it’s the One of the standout tracks is Publican’s tuba.

A very Splendid Village Splendour in the Grass is just weeks away, so time to get a bit of a lowdown on what to expect. The first thing I’d recommend, come hail or shine, is wellies. It’s been such mushy weather for the last six months I think you’d be nuts not to equip yourself with rubber boots. One of the regular Splendour features is The Global Village. For those happy to get into the

groove, the this space offers workshops and performances in dance styles ranging from ancient traditions to modern fusion. From The Temple Stage serving up Capoeira, hip hop, and traditional indigenous moves to the Five Rhythms and Kundalini Dance – there’s something for every body and soul. The Chai Tent is the essential environment to chill out, have a refreshing cuppa, and maybe even partake in a workshop to explore your own hidden potential. You can even grab a healing with massage, or tarot or even a bit of hands on hands off healing with some reiki. The Gyuto Monks can add Splendour in the Grass to their bio this year (back by popular demand!) creating an intricate Sand Mandala in their special Gompa Tent as well as Harmonic Chanting appearances on The Temple Stage.

Add to this the unique style of each filmmaker, their stories brought to life with these wonderful songs, and the result is at times emotional, sometimes harrowing, often funny and heartfelt, but always incredibly thoughtful. The viewer is left stunned by the vastness of the ocean and the depth of emotion in the music. Last Hope is a film for anyone with a love for the ocean. With the film’s collage approach, mixed with the quiet musical stylings, it presents a side of life that is often forgotten in these modern times.

Standup comedy returns to the Court House in Mullumbimby on Thursday with eight new open micers taking to the stand. Open mic is a comedy tradition that allows new and established comics to let loose with new material and get valuable stage time. If you imagine a new comic as something like a Learner driver, it would be true to say that they need a lot of time behind the wheel so they’re not a public menace. Of course, in that initial year, they’ll back into a few sacred cows, probably stall on a few punchlines and there will be times when they’ll get the pace completely wrong and end up doing 40 in an 80 zone. Established comics have a paternalistic fondness of open micers, as they are the toddlers of the comedy world who require that teething time.

knowledge that a calico is not a wall. On Shifting Sandshoes is a play about surviving the great Aussie holiday. Presented in theatre restaurant style by Far Out East Productions, directed by Richard Vinycomb and starring some very talented local identities including real estate agent Sally Packshaw, playwright Craig Hearps and Croquet king Max Donati. The central theme is about a group of friends’ varying reactions to a cyclone that hits Stradbroke Island in the late 1980s. The resulting flood sees their campsite waterlogged and effectively cuts them off from the very civilisation they’ve come to get away from. Their relationships collapse and they experience great longing and discomfort – even real hunger for probably the first time. What follows is a warts and all look at a society obsessed with possessions and appearances, sport and interpersonal rivalry. It also looks at the bonds that hold that society together: the mateship, friendship and through thick-and-thinship attitude of average Aussies, as well as their healthy disrespect for authority. The play packed houses back in 1988 and was compared to The Big Chill and Lord of the Flies. It was also hailed as Comedy of the Year with the playwright getting an AWGIE.

Once Rifo turned his attention to samplers and electronic music, punk and ‘80s new wave he embarked on a decade of various projects starting in 1997; film soundtracks, hip-hop, house and drum and bass eventuating in an electro-punk band called Bob Rifo’s Gang. ‘Rifo then created Bloody Beetroots as an artistic alterego.

We hope events of this stature will make it to TEN’s new HD sports channel, One. 2. If you can stand Diane Keaton’s mannerisms, The Family Stone (Prime, Friday, 8.30pm) is a pleasant enough romantic comedy. 3.

a Harley. It’s then, five minutes into one-hundred and fifty, that you comprehend the long, vacuous journey ahead. To help pass the time, you can try and imagine the countless hours put in by the pale-faced, feverbrained geeks in windowless rooms who came up with the routinely cataclysmic Transformers: Revenge imagery that has made this blockbuster indistinguishable Of The Fallen from last week’s and, doubtless, Sam (Shia LaBeouf), hero from the introductory chapter next week’s (previews of G.I. Joe triggered only ennui). of what threatens to be yet A pain though he may be, another series of sci-fi ballistic LaBeouf’s presence is of critical baloney, is leaving home to importance, for without him commence his freshman year scurrying about in the thick at Yale and Mom is getting of it and runningallhiswords emotional at his departure. together in a constant state of Personally, I’d be dancing in hyper-ventilation you wouldn’t the streets to see the back know which of the aliens are of motor-mouthed LaBeouf, good ones and which are the the most annoying Young ones that want to destroy American since Dobie Gillis.

Ironically (or not), angle that travels up her not unattractive thighs and into her the most spellbinding visual is of the Great Pyramid under a cut-off jeans as she straddles

lack of vanity. Who could forget how, as Nascar driver Ricky Bobby in Talladega Nights (2006), he ran screaming across the track dressed only in a driver’s helmet and a grungy pair of loose Y-fronts? He’s no Adonis, and here again he puts his hirsute flabbiness to wonderful comic effect as pariah scientist Rick Marshall. He and off-sider Will (Danny McBride, playing a character identical to John C. Riley’s in Talladega) have consumed some hallucinogenic fruits (cue Hendrix’s ‌ Watchtower) and are in the pool of an abandoned motel in the distant future/past. Ferrell emerges from the water in a pair of undersized Gowings jocks and shakes himself like Johnny Weissmuller – it’s gold. The mandatory cute girl sharing the boys’ time warp adventure is Holly Cantrell (Anna Friel), a paleontologist who was profoundly influenced by Rick’s writings while studying at Cambridge. Like Mikaela in Transformers 2, she feels an overwhelming urge to cut down her red jeans to tea-towel size, a wardrobe adjustment that worked wonders for me. Cha-Ka (Jorma Land Of The Lost It was inferred in This Paper last Taccone), the buck-toothed week that we footy fans are not primate who guides them, is a direct descendant of Roddy of a disposition to appreciate the higher intellectual pursuits.

It is while a gross tick sucks gallons not so much Ferrell’s ability of blood from his back and, in to portray self-delusion and the climax, Rick confronting a preening egotism (traits vengeful T-Rex – as fantastic not scarce hereabouts) that a piece of CGI as you will appeals, or his poker faced see in any of the overblown gooseness – it is his complete ‘dramas’ currently hogging LATEST IN HI-TECH FULLY AIR-CONDITIONED MBUFTU!JO!EJHJUBM!TVSSPVOE!TPVOE our screens.

I Love You Man I Love You Man takes a rough and funny look at male bonding as it examines the

difference between the sexes. Peter is a guy who has always been ‘a girlfriend guy’, which maybe explains the fact that he has no male friends to call on when he needs a best-man. Sort of in the vein of Knocked Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall, the film’s success lies in the mismatch between Paul Rudd’s sensitive nice guy ‘Peter’ who borders on being a dweeb and Jason Segel’s coarse, crude and outrageously honest ‘Sydney’, who prises Peter from

his comfortable shell. The less you analyse the plot the better – logic does not necessarily prevail when it comes to relationships. Needless to say, Peter and Sydney’s increasingly chaotic relationship prompts hiccups between Peter and his fiancÊ Zooey, but we are guaranteed a happy ending, when all the crossed wires become untangled and impossible relationships are resolved. ~ Lounge Cinema

starry sky – beat that you cyber monkeys. Halfway through, John Turturro returns as Agent Simmons, a character who is at least aware of his own idiocy while, as always, hundreds are getting scrunched in the collateral damage. ‘It looks so immaculately frightful’. How Mikaela got involved in the ear-shattering climactic fight, set in the Egyptian desert, is something I have already forgotten. But there she is, as everything is blown to kingdom come, fleeing the conflagration, hand in hand with Sam, her breasts doing their utmost to jump out of the pink singlet she has unwisely chosen to wear to the event, a sight necessitating a sudden pull back to slo-mo so as to better capture the bobbling knockers. Transformers I was OK, but CGI overkill makes this a yawn. When you’ve seen one Big Mack mutate into a towering metallic behemoth you’ve seen ‘em all and, coming straight after Origin II, it just seemed terribly fake. I’d back Petero Civoniceva to bring down Megatron any day. ~ John Campbell

This, winter, is when all I want to do is read cookbooks, become inspired, and cook. I want friends around my big table with the pot-belly stove casting out its gently enduring warmth. But do I actually want to go to the trouble and the not inconsiderable expense of serving Beef with Foie Gras, Spiced Cocoa Sauce and Vanilla-Scented Beans? Or Liquorice Lamb with Roasted Fennel and Carrots, Havarti Cream and Sweet Carrot Jus? These are just two of the grand recipes in a beautiful cookbook designed for cold weather cookery in cold climes. Written by a chef-turned-publisher, ‘Snow Flakes and Schnapps’ is an Australian woman’s nostalgic foray into the foods of Northern, Central and Eastern European countries she has visited. Jane Lawson in her introduction says ‘I loathe the summer humidity and spend far too much time yearning for winter and the luscious, hearty, rich foods that are often only considered ‘legal’ at this time of year...’ The result is a hefty creation crammed with ingredients like cabbage and barley, polenta and chestnuts, hocks and shanks, gingerbread and honey, dumplings and fricassees and strudels and fritters. Each recipe occupies at least an entire page and often more; the photography is glorious; many dishes sound divine. Salmon with Red Wine Sauce on Sauteed Cabbage and Speck; Three Cheese Polenta Pizza with Sweet Onions and Walnuts; Beer, Orange and Spice-Braised Short Ribs with Walnut Dumplings all make me salivate – as do the Honey Cake Snowballs with Fig and B tt Buttered Rum Sauce and the Polenta o w it Chestnut, Honey and Fennel Loaf with

damp Sunday night then it’s definitely worthwhile. Into a simmering broth of tomato paste, garlic, the usual aromatics of carrot, onion and celery, saffron, chillies, ground coriander, juniper berries and orange zest you slide baby potatoes, chunks of cod and salmon and prawns – it was quite the perfect winter’s night supper along with crusty bread and a bottle of soft red.

Butter. The trouble is that most of the dishes involve several processes and forbiddingly long lists of ingredients: the sort of food you might spend an entire day composing. On the other hand, if the results are anything like the Nordic Seafood Hotpot I made one

And yet I know I will cook many more dishes out of ‘My Cousin Rosa’. Subtitled ‘Rosa Mitchell’s Sicilian Kitchen’, this is another gorgeously presented cookbook though in its simplicity and complete lack of pretentiousness – like Italian cooking itself! – the very opposite. Rosa Mitchell is head chef of popular Melbourne cafe ‘Journal Canteen’ and in her book weaves stories of her Sicilian family’s traditions and history in and out of the rustic recipes. There’s Broccoli Pie: pizza dough enfolding spicy broccoli, anchovies and parmesan; Cauliflower Fritters; lots of hearty soups and out-of-the-ordinary pasta sauces; Sweet and Sour Tuna; Porchetta; Chocolate and Hazelnut Tart and Pistachio Cakes. In her warm tone Rosa offers directions on how to make your own ricotta and salami and how to pickle olives. ‘In years to come’, she muses in her Preface, ’who is going to make the salami or the sugo or the preserves, or even just the simple traditional meals‌?’ ‘Snow Flakes and Schnapps’ – Jane Lawson.

Last week’s solution

Mungo’s Crossword first published in The Week.

ARIES: During the present period of intense personal growth for the world in general and Aries in particular, this brilliant week could present you with a brand new life path – because continuing where you’re not happy and fulfilled is no longer an option.

CANCER: Generous gestures are highly effective in times of tightness so remember that the more you give, the more the universe pours your way. The year’s midpoint is for reviewing if you’re on track so far – and if not, what course corrections could be beneficial?

TAURUS: Right now Taurans have universal support for success in the business arena – though the business in question must be something that helps others or it won’t take off. This week’s designed for a midyear assessment of how best to promote your product or talents.

LEO: This winter’s cosmic collaboration brings you into deeper alignment with your true self. And this week could stimulate a sudden revelation or surprising turnaround in your thinking – an outside wakeup call or inner realisation of what it is you need to know or let go of.

GEMINI: If reason and logic aren’t doing the job this week speak from the heart, but be selective about the words you use. Also the people you spend time with and where you put your energy. Decide what you could do differently to get the results you want.

VIRGO: Keep touching base with whatever makes you feel strong and solid, because this week life could change suddenly and radically – in the best possible way. Repair relationships (especially yours with yourself) and reach out to friends for advice or assistance.

The Oceania Zonal tournaments, which concluded on Friday in Tweed Heads, ended in a dual Australian triumph, with clear victories for Grandmaster David Smerdon and Arianne Caoili. Smerdon, 23, finished a point ahead of a classy field in the Open Zonal, winning seven of his nine games and losing only to Igor Bjelobrk, the unlucky Sydneysider who missed securing an International Master title by a hair’s breadth. The open event was also

LIBRA: Not your style I know, but rather than aiming for detachment, this week it’s more important to get involved. Early week Libra moon supports dealing with unwanted power struggles, because right now it’s better to stand strong and sort them than just hope they’ll go away. SCORPIO: This week some friendships may falter, but others will flourish. Some people are hurtful, others helpful, so look for the joy, stay with the love and don’t connect with the rest. Or keep replaying past stories. Share ideas and camaraderie, particularly during late week Scorpio moon. SAGITTARIUS: This week’s people not giving you the respect, consideration, affection, understanding or promotion you want? Then stop angsting about what they’re not doing and give it to yourself.

Giants take down premiers in derby John Campbell

The Mullumbimby Giants were the hungrier of the two sides when they defeated reigning premiers, the Byron Bay Red Devils, by 24-8 on a cold and sunny Sunday at Les Donnelly Field. Two late converted tries to Mullum did not blow out the score unreasonably, for Byron never clicked into gear and, for much of the second half, were reduced to one-out running and constantly backpedaling defence. The Giants were off to a flyer when, after just three minutes, centre Glen Godbee was put in the clear. He left the cover for dead before kicking infield for his full-back, Tim Abbott, who was perfectly positioned to gather the bouncing ball and make it across the line with a tackler hanging on to him in vain. Sunny Jay Hampson’s conversion made it 6-0 and the Devils’ mojo was severely rattled. The sin binning of Chase Nelson for a professional foul helped the Bay’s cause when, in his absence, Devils hooker Corey Bond went the blind and found centre Lachlan Flannery who slipped a miracle one-hander for his winger Bill Lowrie to cross in the corner. But 6-4 was as close as they

were to get all afternoon. A penalty goal to Hampson was the only addition to the score before the break and, though the boys went to the sheds at 8-4, it was Mullum who had finished the half on the surge.

As ever, the partisans who congregate at the western beer shed were making a spirited contribution, even if, in their hooped baby-blue and yellow polos, they look more like a convention of Naples gelato vendors.

Shark Frenzy at New Brighton

Shores United’s Tom Drennan and Shaun Patten get in a bit of early celebration during Saturday’s game.

There must have been blood in the water at New Brighton on Saturday when the Shores United U14 Sharks went on a goal scoring frenzy. It was the top of the competition table local derby against rivals Byron Bay Panthers with both teams locked on 15 points. Byron was undefeated and had won their first round encounter 2-0, however the Sharks were hungry for revenge. Each team missed key players so this showdown would test their depth. Both teams challenged the opposing defences for the first 4 minutes, until Sharks midfielder Shaun Patton did a classy back heel flick to Dan Carroll, who www.echo.net.au

sent it to Jack Rann who decoyed the Byron keeper and passed across goal to Simon Knight for the first of his 4 goal blitz. Three minutes later The Shores United midfield flicked a ball through to paceman Knight, he passed to Carroll who made no mistake with goal number two. Byron came back fighting with a fast break and caught the Shores’ defence napping and snuck a ball past Shores keeper Jackson Valentine taking the score to 2-1. Knight returned fire soon after, treating the large crowd to the 4th goal in 10 minutes. The Panthers were in shock and started to foul their opposition

in frustration. Knight was elbowed in the back and brought down inside the Byron penalty box. Scott Baber stepped up to finish the job with a beautiful penalty kick wide of the keeper. The Byron boys were demoralised but came back with wave after wave of attack and Sharks keeper Valentine had to pull off some big saves. Byron were unlucky not to score again in the minutes before the break. In the second half it was a battle royal in the midfield. Patton, Tom Drennan and Carl Foreman took control for the Sharks. Time and again they beat players well above their weight, then distributed the ball to the forward line. The fans were treated to some beautiful domination passing from the Sharks and a through ball to Knight sent him on his way again for a hat trick. At the 15-minute mark, Jack Rann knocked a ball to lightning fast Duncan Timms out wide. Defender, Emmanuel Lin sprinted through the middle to receive a pass from Timms and blast the ball past the hapless Byron keeper. Byron kept up the attacks on the Shores back line however Sam King, Omer Perron and Jonah Owens fought them off. Unfortunately the Panthers had no answer to the relentless Sharks attack and Knight was able to put another ball past the

The second forty started in identical fashion as the first, with the incisive Godbee again streaking down the sideline before prop Dan Molenaar lunged over. Hampson missed the kick but, coming so early, the try

was a killer blow from which Byron never recovered. Without captain and organiser Ely Colby, Byron’s forwards lost the yardage contest and their backs attacked without guile or venom. More telling, however, was the passion fac-

Magpies do it again Ahh, those simple joys of exciting footy on a beautiful Sunday afternoon… After a series of wet weekends of closed venues and limited training opportunities, the Byron Bay Magpies Junior AFL under 14s side dried their collective wings in the crisp winter sunshine and took to the field with their trademark enthusiasm. However, when the ‘Pies faced an equally resolute Tweed Valley side in Pottsville, enthusiasm needed to quickly make way for determination. The Tweed Tigers came on strong, with a powerful, coordinated attack, leaving the Magpies facing a two goal deficit the first term. Coach Sean Rehn effectively communicated his belief that the team could do better and the lads and young lady began the second quarter keeper with a clinical deception finish. However it was the classy midfielder Drennan who finished the goal feeding frenzy for the Sharks carving up the dejected Byron Panthers with a single handed attack and scoring their 40th goal in 6 games. The Shores United Sharks are now looking hot favourites to take out the premiership this year. Next Saturday they take on many of their high school classmates when they play another local derby at Mullumbimby.

with renewed vigour. From there the game exploded into what everyone agreed was the most exciting match of the season. Tweed battled on furiously, but the Magpies dug in and by the second half it was anyone’s game. The Magpies and Tigers slugged it out in an unrelenting display of teamwork and intense individual effort. The last quarter was a cliff hanger, but when the final horn sounded Byron emerged with a solid win and a very happy team and coach. ‘That was some of the best junior footy I’ve seen,’ a smiling coach Rehn said as his players joined in one of the loudest victory songs imaginable. It just keeps getting better as the season goes on…

tor – the Giants displayed it in spades and the Devils were unable to match it. Rare bursts from full-back Brad Lees, one of which led to a try for winger Duane Cahill, and centre Michael Chapman, who threatened but repeatedly undid his good work with poor ball security, were never going to be enough to counter the hosts’ bustling enthusiasm and growing confidence. Mullum captain Andrew Moroney was in everything and his side willingly followed the example he set. With ten left on the clock, Godbee snared a try that he richly deserved and, on the back of it and with the Bay’s cue in its rack, hardworking second-rower Brett Archibald stormed over to complete the rout and set the clubhouse booming. The Giants’ reggies had to work hard to maintain their unbeaten record but got home 14-4, while the Under 18’s made it a trifecta for the club with a 42-18 victory.

Kyogle given two Shiners Moonshiner home games are becoming an event in themselves with another great crowd turning out to see the Seniors and Under 19’s post impressive wins against Kyogle. The Under 19’s came out with plenty of intensity that was rewarded with tries to Teal Pyne and Jed Probert. Nathan Nicholls produced another classy performance and was well supported by Jarren Hughes. By the time Wally Stewart and Jessy Malivanek scored five pointers the scoreboard read 34 - 0 to the Shiners. The seniors needed a win to

stay in finals contention and produced the goods. Sati ‘hot pink’ Siamoa and Kev Sheridan scored tries before half time to build a 12 - 0 lead. Jason Ridgeway and Tom Pyke were outstanding with Shane Ivey casting an imposing shadow in the legendary twenty two. Jeff Moate’s runaway try sealed a 19 -7 win. Nathan Williams dominated throughout until a cold pie pulled him up late in the day. This Saturday the Under 19’s travel to Wollongbar while the Seniors ride the love bus to Yamba.

in the world. Many surfers who get through the State Titles are after the prestigous Australian Title. Australian Titles will be held in August in Port Macquarie. Conditions started out with glassy one metre waves and sunny skies but by the end of the week turned into rain squalls and 25 knot winds with ugly 6-8ft brown storm surf, just in time for the juniors and the ladies to surf. Pro surfers acted as caddies when not surfing their heats and were used to assist some of the surfers who required it.

It was an all age event from the youngest competitor Isaac Gazzard-Tinker aged 13 from Byron Bay, to the oldest competitive surfer in the country Barry ‘Magoo’ McGuigan, who continues to do yoga every day and last month turned 80 years young. Barry has been surfing for 65 years and has the flexibility of a man half his age. He is a legend. Harley Ingleby from Emerald Beach won the Open 9ft Mens, Samantha White from the South Coast won The Open 9ft Ladies and Ray Lawrence also from the South

Coast won the 8ft Open. Byron locals did well at the State Titles with Brett Caller who placed 5th in the Open 9ft, Ben Dickens who came 11th in the Open 9ft and Deb Tinker came first in the Over 35 Ladies winning a State Title. Other locals who competed in the the event were, Jack Milgate 2nd Junior Boys, Roisin Carolan 5th Junior Girls and Cadets, Isaac Gazzard-Tinker 7th Cadets, Phil Mansfield 6th over 45s, Rob Nedwich 6th over 50s and Dave Ferguson who came 6th in the over 60s.

A soggy home ground forced play in the Rams v Italo Stars to Byron Bay High School but the Rams finished the cliffhanger with a 2-1 win making them undefeated in their last 7 games and the reserves with the help of Nolan Peirce, pictured, won their match a clear 4-1.

Seems true that is said,... ‘ the candle that burns twice as bright,... alas,.. burns half as long....’., Thankfully, Bob’s last moments were with his son... I am sure there were gems of wisdom spoken.... He will be missed for his laugh, his generous spirit, and mostly for his council... He was an old and wise soul you see... Wherever he be... He will be loved.. Go well Uncle Bob... we’ll see you again....” (Anon)
