PRETTY END OF THE MEME POOL

Mullum mourns after schoolboy death Eve Jeffery

The Mullumbimby High School community and the entire shire are still reeling from the sudden and tragic loss of a young man during what has been labelled the ‘table war’ at the school last Friday. Fifteen year old Jai Morcom, pictured, became involved in a melee when two students groups clashed in a territorial dispute over an outdoor table in the school yard. During the brawl, which involved several students from different year levels, Jai collapsed and after being attended to by a staff member, was transported by paramedics to Mullumbimby hospital in a critical condition before being transferred to the

Gold Coast Hospital where he was put on life support. Jai’s family kept vigil through the night and life support was turned off mid morning when it became clear the Jai would not recover from head injuries sustained during the fight. Jai died soon after. The Department of Education says its thoughts are with the student’s family and friends and it is providing additional support to the staff and students of Mullumbimby High School but stated it would be inappropriate to comment further at this point, because police are investigating the circumstances around the fight. The school staff and many of the students have been distressed by the intrusive nature

of the media as they come to terms with their grief and loss. There has been a great deal of comment and misinformation in the media about the circumstances of Jai’s death,

one television station even presented YouTube footage of Mullumbimby students during a supervised PE boxing class as an indication of the perceived violence at the school. Many

rumours have been circulating but nothing will really be known for certain until the coroner and police have finished their investigations. The Echo spoke to a close friend of Jai’s on Sunday evening who was distraught about the loss of her dear friend. ‘I had a class with Jai first period and he sat with my group just before the fight,’ said the year 9 girl who asked to remain nameless. ‘He was fine. Just normal Jai, happy and awesome.’ The student who saw the fight said that it began as a prank but soon got heated. ‘It was bit of joke in the beginning but in the end it got a little more serious but it was never expected to turn into a fight.

At the time I was scared that something so little could become so huge. I felt numb, like I should be doing something, but there was nothing I could do. I was just helpless.’ There has been talk of a backlash but the school is hoping to have as normal a week as possible and there will be a team of about 20 counsellors on hand to talk to students during the week. ‘It will be sad for most and emotions will run high,’ said the girl. ‘I think it will be good for our school community to be together again.To acknowledge what happened, so we can prevent this from ever happening again. ‘There are a lot of angry people that will do stupid things, continued on page 3

Bushfire heralds a warm end to winter weather Local Rural Fire Service crews have been kept busy through the week with an early start to the fire season. Typically the driest time of year is September, but lack of rain for weeks and higher than average temperatures has brought the risk of fires forward. Volunteers from 15 RFS Brigades and staff from National Parks and Wildlife Services attended a bushfire that started around 10pm on Monday, August 24. The fire, with a perimeter of 16.8kms, burnt out approximately 300 hectares of private property and Mt Jerusalem National Park, with a number of banana plantations damaged. With temperatures peaking at 37 degrees and high winds on Monday, two water bomber planes and one helicopter were engaged to help

fight the flames. Investigators are unsure of the cause of the fire at this stage, but the circumstances are being investigated by RFS and Police Fire Investigators. RFS Community Safety Officer for the Far North Coast, Laurence McCoy, told The Echo, ‘The effort from the RFS volunteers and NPWS staff was outstanding. ‘They were working tirelessly 24/7 for five days to contain the fire, and are still continuing to patrol the area. Brigades from Wilsons Creek, Billinudgel, Main Arm, Mullumbimby, Byron, Goonengerry, Federal, Wardell, Newrybar, Lennox Head, Alstonville, Murwillumbah, Tweed Coast, Burringbar, Bilambil were all involved, with local knowledge from the Wilsons Creek crew being particularly valuable. I would like to acknowledge all the crews’

onto maps used by the frontline crews, and together with wind and weather information, standard operating procedures, crew training, local knowledge, technology and equipment, fire control knew exactly how to prioritise placement of their teams on the ground. The fire was contained within identified control lines by the afternoon of Thursday August 27 but will continue to smoulder from burning logs for a number of days. Crews will continue to patrol the area. RFS advises property owners to prepare their homes for the upcoming fire season. Ember attack is the major cause of house fires during a bush fire.

Through deserts to ocean by bike Victoria Cosford

A three-and-a-half week dirtbike ride by a group of Sunshine Coast ‘adventurists’ finished up at the Cape Byron Lighthouse on a wind-blown Saturday. Travelling from the most westerly point of Australia (Steep Point in WA) to the most easterly, the three bike riders with their support vehicles followed wherever they could an old pioneers’ route, crossing two deserts and – in the words of Yvonne Corstorphin whose husband did the trip – ‘going through the guts of the country.’ Guts may well have been required for such an expedition, although miraculously there were no injuries or major breakdowns. The Simpson Desert was a challenge with its 40oC temperatures and sandstorms, but visions like the herd of 50 camels, the dingoes and eagles and hundreds of emus all compensated and constituted some great moments. Apart from 27 year old Josh Simpson, the team was all in their late 40s. One of its members had had a sort of mid-life crisis some years previously, precipitating the purchase of a shiny red bike and the notion of crossing from one side of Australia to the other. It was,

Yvonne said, ‘just an adventure’ – although so inspiring has it been that the men are already planning the next one, ‘possibly from the bottom up.’ A welcoming party of about 30 family members and friends were waiting for them up at the lighthouse. ‘Welcome Home To The East’, ‘Through The Guts, You Must Be Nuts’ and ‘Coast To Coast Thru The Gutz’ proclaimed three banners. As the lights of the bikes nosed up the hill a roar erupted from the crowd. A table, eskies of champagne at its legs, bore four brightly iced cakes in

‘It exceeded them – by 100%’, he replied, unable to stop grinning. Co-rider Greg Machin admitted to ‘mixed emotions now it’s over’, going on to describe the Simpson Desert as ‘an eye-opener’ – whereas Josh Simpson settled for the fact that ‘it’s a relief to be over!’

Mullum mourns schoolboy death From front page

there has been talk about revenge or “payback” but I think if they truly cared for Jai they wouldn’t resort to more violence’. The student said that Jai’s friends have been helping comfort each other since Friday. ‘It’s been good we’ve all stuck together and shared thoughts, it’s really helped. I hope people look back on this and realise that hurting another human being doesn’t get you anywhere, It doesn’t get you a table or justice, just another damaged person’. Inspector Owen King spoke to the media on Monday morning at the Mullumbimby police station. He said that a fight started between two boys, neither of whom was Jai Morcom, and that Jai had become involved and that was really all they knew for sure. ‘The investigations will continue this week,’ said Insp King. ‘The school task force and the homicide squad will be at the school for the next few days but for the present it is too early to speculate about what has happened and if any charges will be laid’. When asked about a student backlash, Insp King said that the police would be speaking to the students within their class groups to deter any more violent behaviour. He asked that the media give the family and the community a chance to grieve in peace. When asked

Besides creating a memorial, pictured above, to Jai Morcom at the school, Mullumbimby High students staged a walkout and march last Monday. The Echo spoke to Jai’s mother Kim Morcom after the student march in which she took part. Ms Morcom said she and her family can think of nothing but Jai. ‘I don’t have words for having lost what was most precious to me. We can’t think past Jai, he was just such a beautiful little boy.’ Ms Morcom has been hounded by the press since this terrible tragedy happened, to the point of reporters and photographers waiting outside her house for hours on end, which she

The response has just rung true why I moved to this area in the first place’. There will be a memorial service for Jai at Heritage Park on Saturday at 11am. ‘Everyone is welcome,’ said Kim. ‘All I ask is that they come in peace’.

report given. Until then, the whole community grieves for the family of Jai Morcom and for such a senseless loss. One of the parents from the school who was clearly shaken by the events told The Echo, ‘This is a terrible trag-

edy, a nightmare by anyone’s standards. Some things are too shocking for thoughts and too sad for words. We can only send our love to Jai’s family and pray to the god of our understanding that this never happens again.’

Council gives the go-ahead for new Bay library At its strategic planning committee on Thursday last week Byron Shire Council approved a DA for the long-awaited and much needed new Byron Bay Library. Speaking on behalf of Friends of the Library, Secretary Jenny Coman said how

very happy she and the Friends are with this development. The Friends have been meeting and fundraising since the demise of the old library and will be delighted to hear the good news. In moving approval of the

staff recommendation, Mayor Barham recognised the roles of both the Arakwal and the Friends and was enthusiastic about the new building, which will incorporate a number of special features to enable it to qualify for a 5-Star Green Sus-

tainability Rating, possibly the first civic building to achieve this. The library moved to cramped accommodation in 1996 following the Council’s sell-off of its former chambers in Lawson Street.

Farewell to Geoff Moxham 1950-2009 For all those people on the north coast whose lives have been touched by Geoff Moxham over the last 30 years, it is sad to report that he suffered a fatal accident on his property at Terania Creek last Thursday August 27. He was alone in the forest (that he helped save in 1979) felling a small sapling for the rafters of the new Biochar kiln and the tree behind him was dragged over by entangled vines, hitting him unexpectedly. Geoff was heavily involved in so many different facets of the local community from Tibetan Buddhism, alternative energy, LETS, teaching at Nimbin High, cannabis crusader, home schooling and most recently – biochar. Geoff leaves behind many amazing children – Zhi-

yana 20 and Chimie 27 from previous partners and Alita 6 and Manu 4 from his current partner Vanessa. He lived a humble and simple life on Rainbow community in Terania Creek valley where he did his best at arm’s

length to educate a misguided world. Recently, his website www.BodgersHovel.com had been providing an ideal platform for Geoff to correlate and disseminate his ideas in a useful way. His local Biochar group, op-

erating through the Lismore Rainforest Information Centre, had just received a substantial grant from Artists Project Earth in UK to develop a Public Domain biochar kiln model for small farms. It was working on this project that unfortunately took his life. In a recent email he described himself as a ‘Resolute, Adamant and Defiant (RAD) hippy’. He sure was! He will be missed. Geoff ’s funeral will be held at 3.30pm on Friday September 4 at Lismore Memorial Gardens, Skyline Road, Goonellabah, 6625 1221. There will be a wake afterwards at The Channon Hall into Friday night. BYO drinks and food etc. Email jay@bodgershovel. com for more details.

A program to stop one of the world’s major viruses affecting bananas, Banana Bunchy Top Virus (BBTV), has begun targeting home and hobby gardens as well as commercial plantations in far northern NSW in an effort to eliminate the virus from Australia. ‘It is relatively simple to find infected banana plants in commercial plantations, but outside those we are going to need the help of the community in tracking down and destroying infected plants,’ said the NSW program coordinator David Peasley. The only regions in Australia that BBTV is found are on the far north coast of NSW and in south east Queensland. In NSW, most cases are located in the Tweed Shire, but others have been reported in the Byron and Lismore Shires, with possible spread into the Ballina Shire. ‘The disease is spread by airborne aphids and once a banana plant has BBTV, it is unlikely to bear fruit, so there is no value in keeping the plant alive. ‘It will simply be a launch pad for aphids to spread the

‘While banana growers are assisting by keeping an eye out for the symptoms and reporting them to the detectors we need the community also to be vigilant. ‘If anyone thinks that their banana plants may be infected one of our specialist BBTV detectors in the region will come and inspect the plants. They can contact us by telephoning 1800 068 371. ‘Among symptoms are a bunching of the emerging leaves, but they are often hard to detect. The best action is to get in the experts who will quickly examine the plants and if infected, can destroy them immediately.’ Call the Banana Bunchy Top Virus hotline 1800 068 371 for more information or to arrange a detector visit.

Camphor-clearing has been going on in the Possum Creek neighbourhood and some local residents are less than amused. According to one, former State MP Richard Jones, it’s been going on for the past three months and the noise is ‘absolutely horrendous’. But what really bothers him is the effect on the habitat and ‘the huge loss of biodiversity if the camphor laurel all goes.’ Commonly regarded as a blight and a pest, ‘cinnamomum camphora’ was introduced into Australia in 1822 as an ornamental tree to grace parks – and has gone on to be-

come a noxious weed, invading pastures, degrading river banks and competing against eucalyptus trees as the sole food source of koala bears. And yet according to Richard, the Possum Creek camphors have over the years become the natural habitat and refuge for birds, butterflies, snakes, possums – as well as koalas. Forest Enterprises Development and Consulting Pty Ltd (FEDC) is the company undertaking the work, employing six mighty machines to chop down the camphors and in the process, Richard told The Echo, ‘knocking over thousands of emerging rainforest trees.’

<echowebsection=Local News>

Managing Director of FEDC Mick Benton explained to The Echo that his company, along with a number of other contractors, was supplying woodchips for cogeneration plants at Condong and Broadwater and to that effect was sourcing camphor laurel from all four Shires. ‘We are working under the NSW Code of Practice for the removal of noxious weeds,’ he said, ‘in consultation with the EPA, DECC, Far North Coast Weeds Council, NPWS and local government.’ Before the work commenced all land-holders affected had been advised about it. ‘We operate under an agreement with

the landholder,’ Mr Benton said. ‘[It’s] a binding document we all abide by.’ He disagrees about the koalas making camphor laurel their habitat, arguing that ‘it’s toxic to them.’ ‘Camphor laurel has been declared noxious in all council areas and it is a requirement for landholders to eradicate it from their properties. We’ve been in the business for 30 years and we’re not cowboys.’ He invites anyone wishing the discuss the matter further to contact him on 0438 662 730. A staff report on the clearing is expected to go to Council on September 10.

Local artists go to Swell, the Currumbin festival Victoria Cosford

Three local artists will be part of this year’s Swell Sculpture Festival at Currumbin. Wendy Johnson, Katrina Kelsey and Errol Andrews, all from South Golden Beach, have collaborated to create a two metre heart frame wrapped in marram grass; its strategic placement near the Currumbin Surf Club will ensure that through the frame you will see the ocean. Now in its seventh year, this free outdoor event along the ocean walkway is expected to attract up to 200,000 over the week it is on. Artists from around Australia and overseas create large durable artworks specifically built for the outdoors environment and this year 52 will be installed between the two major headlands. This will be the second time that Wendy has exhibited at the Festival, several years ago contributing a huge mirror of mosaics. An aspiring artist, she came up with the heart-frame concept made largely from natural materials as a way of placing ‘less of a strain on the environment and to reduce my carbon footprint’, she told

Coffee co snaps up 14 awards

Local face at schoolies gathering This week in Lorne in Victoria, 100 delegates from all around Australia will be gathering to work on strategies to create a national approach to ‘Schoolies’ Celebrations across our country. The 2009 National School Leavers Conference ‘Young People Celebrating Safely’ is an initiative of the Victorian Government’s Office for Youth wich has also engaged the assistance of the Australian Drug Foundation and representatives of many communities that have organised successful Schoolies programs.

For the first time a delegate from Byron Shire will be attending the conference. Nicqui Yazdi, Director of the MindRight Institute and Team Leader of BUDDI, Byron Underage Drinking and Drug Initiative, Byron’s Community Drug Action Team, will be representing the Byron region in a plan to develop a local Schoolies strategy. Upon hearing about Nicqui attending the conference, Byron United immediately offered to contribute $400 to her journey.

Mayor Jan Barham spoke with Nicqui on Monday about the conference and Byron Shire Council on Thursday also decided to offer Nicqui $800. Nicqui said. ‘I am very grateful for the assistance, as most of the work that I do is in a volunteer capacity and it can become quite costly. ‘I am looking forward to the conference and hope to bring back a great deal of information that will assist the Byron Shire to prepare a plan for creating safe Schoolies celebrations.

In a two hour operation, Surf Life Saving NSW duty officers and volunteer members from Byron Bay SLSC last Sunday rescued 30 people who were swept out to sea in strong westerly winds while on a kayaking tour. Surf Life Saving’s Emergency Response System was activated by police as soon as they were alerted that the craft were in distress off Cape Byron. Using the club’s rubber duckie and jetskis, the rescuers ferried all 30 people back to Tallow Beach and experienced surf lifesavers, battling winds gusting up to 50 knots, then paddled the 16 sea kayaks back to shore.

According to co-owner Annie Ivancich, pictured, ‘no-one has ever achieved such a large amount of awards in one show in coffee [nor been] the most awarded coffee company in Australia...’

Northern Rivers part of Pink Force Four Northern Rivers women were among more than 200 breast cancer survivors and advocates that joined forces in Melbourne last week to share information about breast cancer issues as part of a national summit hosted by Breast Cancer Network Australia. Among the issues discussed at the summit was the impact that breast cancer has on families, the importance of connecting with the local community, and support for living well with the physical and emotional effects of breast cancer. Every day 36 women in Australia will be told they have breast cancer and seven will lose their lives to this disease. Robyn Sparks from Ballina Breast Cancer Support Group said ‘I was diagnosed in 2005 with early stage breast cancer. I discovered a change in my breast and breast cancer was confirmed by ultrasound and a biopsy. I am alive today because I acted on my suspicion and had appropriate treatment. ‘I urge all women to check their breasts regularly, and attend a breast screen which is a free service for all women over 40. Free screening does not cut

out at 70 years of age and I urge all women to continue with screening after this age.’ Rural delegates heard they will now have access to better information and support

World Vision chief visits Byron High Victoria Cosford

In the followup to World Vision’s annual 40 Hour Famine, Byron Bay High School invited CEO of World Vision Tim Costello to talk about poverty. With the exception of Year 12s who are currently undergoing their Trial HSC, students from the high school as well as a delegation from St Finbarr’s filled the hall to listen to one of Australia’s leading voices on social justice issues. The 40 Hour Famine is one of Australia’s biggest youth fundraising initiatives, a concept started up by World Vision Australia in 1975 in a bid to raise money to help children, families and communi-

ties abroad who were in dire need. Mr Costello launched into his talk with a discussion on how lucky we all are to have been born in this country, never having to worry about issues like the quality of drinking water and health care. Likening

such fortune to winning first prize in Tattslotto – life itself being ‘the great lottery’ – he went on to talk about the ‘little bubble’ most of us live in wherein ‘there’s always food in the refrigerator and money to spend.’ Doing the 40 Hour Famine ‘puts you in the same bubble as the starving millions’, he said. ‘Those who have done the 40 Hour Famine have done something really significant for those who won the last ticket in the lotto...’ He spoke about a recent visit to Ethiopia in the company of Hugh Jackman – to be televised later this year – which resulted in Hugh’s oath that, having seen how hard the cof-

fee farmers worked, he would ever after only drink Fair Trade coffee. ‘We actually live in a global village,’ Mr Costello exclaimed, ‘and you need a world vision to be aware what goes on beyond here. The future depends on thinking global – one, because it’s the right thing to do, and two because it affects Australia and how we live.’ He wound up by saying that we are all in this together, all one family. The National Trust has listed Tim Costello as a ‘National Living Treasure’ – and judging by the total silence throughout his 20 minute address it appeared that the students thought so too.

We’re open seven days a week from 8:00am. Breakfast is now available all day on weekends & until 1:00pm weekdays. Lunch is served from noon til 3:00pm. Our Chefs are busy putting together a tasty & affordable menu for Spring & Summer. We have a vast selection of soulful music that we play non-stop all day, everyday.

Comment

Nelson’s endurance finally runs out Volume 24 #13

September 1, 2009

Our burning season Byron Shire’s summer bushfire season started in winter. On Tuesday last week a fire flared up on Koonyum Range and the south slopes of the upper Mullumbimby Creek valley. By that evening black ash was falling on Mullumbimby and by morning a pall of smoke hung over the town. Obviously it’s time to be prepared for the next fire. The NSW Rural Fire Service has regular updates on fires at www.rfs.nsw.gov.au as well as useful information on preparing for bushfires. According to the Service, ‘If it’s your property, it’s your fuel and you are legally responsible for reducing hazards.’ Hazard reduction doesn’t necessarily mean burning off, and in the wrong hands out-of-control burnoffs can result in bushfires. So far the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) seems to be hedging its bets on the likelihood of a full-scale El NiĂąo event this year. According to BoM, ‘more often than not, El NiĂąo events result in reduced rainfall across parts of eastern and northern Australia’, however rainfall is sometimes an unpredictable beast. BoM’s temperature predictions for September to November foresee a 65% to 70% chance of our region exceeding the median maximum temperature over those months, which does not augur well for bushfire conditions. While on the hot topic of burning, our chances seem low of avoiding sugarcane burning in the next few years. On August 24 NSW Sugar Milling Co-operative (www.nswsugar.com.au) CEO Chris Connors was quoted on the ABC’s National Rural News as saying sugarcane burning-off will continue. Mr Connors said the co-op is currently testing processing methods such as taking all crop in the field, burning with and without extractors, and green cane harvesting. ‘Certainly within the next three to four years, the target is to take all of that crop,’ Mr Connors is quoted as saying. ‘So we will be looking to ensure growers aren’t burning.’ This promise has been hanging in the air since the 1990s at least. Back then when it was debated by Byron Shire Council, mayor Dr Ian Kingston remarked on the distress of his asthmatic patients who lived near the canefields. Even those with lesser respiratory complaints can be affected badly, and all those new SUV owners in town won’t want black ash on their pristine duco. Sugarcane burnoff is an environmental and health issue which the sugarcane industry needs to get serious about, especially as the rural population continues to grow. Perhaps the much-vaunted cogeneration plants at Condong and Broadwater could offer some incentive to growers to harvest their product green. Council’s 2004 Sustainable Agriculture Strategy seems to be silent on the topic of sugarcane burning, though one of its short term goals is to ‘develop and adopt a range of mechanisms to reduce potential conflict, eg separation distances, buffers, zones, land use agreements, communication with neighbours if introducing land use change etc’. In fact Council’s interest in agriculture and in the industry’s interaction with the wider community seem to have dropped off the radar. – Michael McDonald, editor

rendan Nelson is a decent, intelligent, moderate and generally rational politician, so his departure from Parliament is a loss to the Liberal Party, which appears increasingly lacking in such qualities. Nelson did a reasonable job as the patsy who had to pick up the pieces when Peter Costello decided the job was too much like hard work and would probably have done a better one if he had not been constantly and viciously white-anted by Malcolm Turnbull, who made it clear from the start that he believed the leadership was his by divine right. Nelson had intended to remain unobtrusively on the back bench until the next election, but after enduring life under Turnbull for almost a year he decided enough was enough. However, before leaving he reverted to his previous incarnation as medical practitioner and gave Peter Hartcher in the Sydney Morning Herald a free diagnosis of his supplanter which deserves wider circulation. Turnbull, reported the doctor, suffers from Narcissistic Personality Disorder, a complaint defined by ‘a pervasive pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behaviour), need for admiration and a lack of empathy’. There follows a list of more or less unpleasant symptoms culminating in ‘arrogant, haughty behaviour or attitude’. Nelson elaborated from his own experience: ‘At first I though he was demanding, emotional and narcissistic, using his wealth and charm for seduction and always with a sinister threat just below the surface ‌ most of the people who supported him (in the leadership ballot) voted for him to get rid of him.’ In other words they assumed

B

he would crash and burn, and they may yet be right. Nelson himself, it must be said, has left little in the way of a political legacy. He supported Pauline Hanson; as education minister he believed the problems of under-funded state schools could be solved with the provision of a flag pole and a poster of Simpson’s donkey; as defence minister he was one of an ineffectual proces-

current arrangements would represent the final triumph of elitism and be an abrogation of the very idea of the sovereignty of the people. This is presumably what has happened in just about every other democracy on earth, where bills of rights are incorporated in the legal system or in many cases in the constitution. The model most often proposed for Australia would be compar-

Yet for all his failings Brendan Nelson had one thing going for him: he was not Malcolm Turnbull. by Mungo MacCallum sion ritually bastardised by the military brass; and as opposition leader he manifestly failed to pull the coalition together into anything resembling an alternative government. Yet for all his failings he had one thing going for him: he was not Malcolm Turnbull. And there are many in his own party who already miss him. nd speaking of past leaders, John Howard bobbed back up in the bowl last week to give us a bit of advice on, of all things, human rights. Truly the man has no shame. The Prime Minister whose government incarcerated innocent children behind razor wire until they literally went mad and abandoned its own citizens to illegal imprisonment and torture by a foreign power now warns us that judges and lawyers should not be allowed to tamper with decisions made by politicians elected by ‘ordinary’ people. Any attempt to change our unsurpassable

atively mild: the bill would not have the force of law and the most judges could do would be to advise that apparent breaches had occurred. The politicians would retain the power to act or not as they saw fit. But even that is too much for Honest John, fearless defender of the common man (and of the monarchy, but we’ll let that go for the present). Australia must stand alone, a bulwark against the creeping tide of international enhancement of liberty. He knows. Trust him. nd finally, a rare foray into state politics. The NSW Premier Nathan Rees, the latest in a long line of ring-ins, is apparently also headed for the tip as the godfathers of NSW Labor search vainly for someone – anyone – who can con the voters into not delivering too humiliating a thrashing in 2011. A win, of course, appears out of the question, but it would be nice to save a few seats as the basis for some sort

of regrouping for next time around. The problem is that it is not actually the leader who is the obstacle. Rees and his predecessor Morris Iemma are not exactly charisma machines, but both are presentable enough, and with a modicum of unified support could have made as good a fist of it as anyone. It is the whole party which is well and truly on the nose after far too long in government, and it is the party, not the leader, the electorate will punish in due course. But if the public loathing had to be more precisely focussed, the target would be not Rees, but the factional bosses and in particular the gruesome twosome of Eddie Obeid and Joe Tripodi. Rightly or wrongly these two are perceived as personifying everything that is wrong with the government: the arrogance, the thuggery, the cronyism, the lack of accountability, the manic desire for power and spoils of office, the unprincipled imperative of winning at any cost, whatever it takes. Obeid and Tripodi have developed their own version of King Midas’s curse: everything they touch turns to excrement. But it is believed, at least in the party and in the media, that they are still the men; they cannot be challenged or crossed. So we have the paradox: no one can become leader without their patronage, but their patronage makes the leader unelectable. It happened to Rees last week: Obeid denied he had withdrawn his support from the premier. The kiss of death. Rees will now sink still further in the polls and Obeid and Tripodi will have to find another protÊgÊ, another victim. Their political euthanasia is long overdue.

Master plan for Tallowood Estate The proposed Tallowood Ridge Estate (Echo front page, August 25) on the western edge of Mullum brings Council’s rural settlement planning process into sharp focus at last. The NSW Department of Planning requires all councils to provide new housing for increased populations. Byron Shire’s contribution is put at 2,600 houses over 25 years (from 2006 to 2031). Council’s role is to determine if this

is reasonable and if so, where and when. Many people from Main Arm and Federal and elsewhere have clearly stated that they consider those areas inappropriate for denser rural settlement due to distance from shops, high schools, poor infrastructure and poor public transport. The Department of Planning has recently advised Council it does not support the splatter gun approach to rural settle-

ment, allowing all existing rural lots a second detached dwelling for similar reasons, (however the option for attached dual occupancies in many rural areas remains permissible). Most areas east of the highway are highly constrained by flooding and sea level rise. Mr Freeman’s land, which is quite close to services and less constrained than many other areas of the shire, may well be suitable for housing, however a

thorough analysis is required. This is the political reality facing us all. I agree what’s needed is a detailed Master Plan for the entire site and community input into that plan before Phase 1 for 31 house sites is considered by councillors. So when staff report the matter to Council for our consideration, I will be moving a motion in that regard.

been greatly appreciated by all who live here. My one-year-old son was captivated by the commotion of helicopters overhead and big yellow planes with sirens blaring bombing water! Not to mention all the red fire engines with their lights flashing! ‘Mmmm baaa da me chubba chub’ and he would like to thank all the friendly crews (who smiled and waved at him) for saving the forest which is home to all the birds and animals that he loves so much.

Garden. I agree it was a very pretty forest but I assure you that our decision to remove the camphors was made after extensive research and discussion over the last three years with experts in the community and our members. From the inception of our vision to create a community garden, our consensus was to grow food to share and develop communal food gardens around the entrance to the garden. Allotments where people grow food for personal use are separate and ‘down the back’. We want the first thing people entering the garden to experience is communal food gardens ,not environmental weeds. Camphors have alelopathic interactions in the soil around their extensive root system which impedes the growth of surrounding plants. This is obvious in the spiral garden we established 12 months ago, some 20 metres from the forest. With camphor roots matted through the soil, none of the herbs or vegetables have flourished. Additionally, our duty of care to the many children who visit our garden was to remove the dangerous cubby made in the camphor canopy by truant high school students. Engaging children and youth is one of our priorities and we have many activities planned with them. There are still many other places on our five acre site for the children to play.

We welcome your input but ask you to look for the bigger picture. We encourage you and people of all ages and abilities in our community to come on Wednesdays and/or Saturdays between 8.30am and 3pm to share ideas, knowledge, skills and join in the fun. By the way, anyone wanting camphor logs or chip – we have lots to share.

Re mention several weeks ago about the new e-tags and the hassle to cross the Gateway Bridge in Brisbane. Stay on the highway into Brisbane, along the river past Turbot Street and then turn right at the M3 sign and you are on the city bypass which passes under the showground and onto the Kingsford Smith Drive through two traffic lights and left onto Gateway Highway then onto the airport. Total 30 kilometres and 30 minutes. Kevin Anderson

Coordinator Mullumbimby Community Garden ■As a member of the Community Garden from the beginning, I feel saddened by the removal of the camphor grove. But I realise I did not raise my voice sufficiently loudly – though quite a few times – to defend the grove being left alone, and being gradually replaced with suitable natives over a period of years. If anything good can come from the devastation of the camphor grove, it will be the creation of a more democratic decision making system. I will be active in suggesting ways to improve members’ involvement. I believe we can do better than spending monies from grants and philanthropists in haste (as grant monies have deadlines).

Festival furore I respond to Viv Fantin (Letters, August 18): John Bailey is one of a great many shire residents who are deeply concerned about the proposals to increase the number and size of music festivals in the shire. The Coalition for Festival Sanity, which includes representatives from several community associations, fully supports Bailey’s stance and is actively opposing both the proposed Bluesfest at Tyagarah and the Splendour at Yelgun proposal. Joining in CFFS’s opposition are over 30 long-standing community associations in the area who are deeply concerned about what would be the negative impacts on the environment, residential amenity, and the image of this area from such developments. The voicing of their serious, legitimate concerns should not be dismissed as ‘scaremongering’. CFFS does not oppose the Blues Festival, only the attempt

to increase the size substantially and locate it in an unsuitable place. In this, we support a number of Tyagarah residents (with whom we have spoken personally) and the members of the Byron Ratepayers Association (which is far from a ‘faceless organisation’). CFFS also remains outraged by Splendour’s responding to the court’s rejection of its proposed trial event in its own unsuitable place by asking the state planning department to approve a permanent festival site in the same place. Denise Nessel (CFFS)

North Ocean Shores It’s a pity Dave Mullen (Letters, August 18 ) can’t get his facts right before lodging his attack on CONOS. Firstly, Dave, the dedication of land by North Byron Shire Parklands to the NPWS you refer to is actually a land exchange. Yes, that’s right, Parklands will benefit from this as well. Secondly, Dave, and in case you didn’t know, this landswap has been in the pipeline for many years now, long before the current landowners (Splendour in the Grass) purchased the property and long before the idea of a festival was ■

Pathways to Manhood NORTH COAST NSW PROGRAM 28th Sept – 3rd October The Pathways Foundation is a National Harm Prevention Charity that assists young people make the fundamental emotional shift from being a child to becoming a young adult. The way Pathways does this is by providing contemporary, community based Rites of Passage for boys and girls. Pathways to Manhood North Coast Program takes the form of a 6 day bush camp for boys aged 13-15 years and their fathers or a male mentor. This award winning program has been running since 1995 and the difference this experience makes in the lives of the boys, their fathers and the entire family is profound.

Lament of the jilted correspondent Shire is a household in which Council runs the kitchen and organises the repairs and renovation. The Echo’s job in this scenario is that of complacently polishing the ornaments in the sitting room. Guess whose job it invariably is to clean the toilet when the stench becomes unbearable? Guess who always has a problem getting heard on the subject of this unpleasant reality?

I have written versions of this letter many times over recent years, only to rip it up each time and chuck it. Not this time. I refer to The Echo’s extremely discourteous practice of rejecting letters to the editor without offering the writer any explanation or opportunity to modify the content. The effect is compounded by naming and humiliating the rejectee in a list of also-rans! What planet are you guys on? Now I will of course admit that The Echo extends this discourtesy and humiliation to one and all without fear or favour. Indeed I’ve met several people who’ve said to me, ‘Yes, I wrote a letter to the editor once and they didn’t print it.’ Always this is said as a lament, accompanied inevitably with a shrug of the shoulders, as though they felt they had been found unworthy, but without a clue as to why.

Feedback, McDuck [the editor’s nickname], people need feedback, which is what I’m giving you now. It is indeed a principle of natural justice that people should always be given reasons for decisions that affect them adversely. It makes them feel they’ve been heard, it allows them to assess whether the decision maker has acted in good faith, and competently. It reinforces the credibility of the institution making the decisions, it gives the affected party clues as to how to do better next time round and it offers the basis of an appeal for reconsideration. Not only that but the person putting together the reasons is thereby forced to properly consider the matter instead of possibly acting on impulse. I realise it would be impractical for detailed responses to each letter, but the very minimum would be a simple code

in brackets after each rejectee, eg: (tfl) = too long, (se) = subject exhausted, (w) = what the fuck are you on about, (def) = don’t wanna get sued. It is of course the last of the above which is usually the reason my letters are rejected, but why does it piss me off that two or three hours of my work might be summarily rejected and wasted when it is possibly only one word or phrase which might be the problem, and which could easily be rectified? Am I being overly precious? I suspect it’s The Echo which is being precious. The real problem might be that the gritty matters typically addressed don’t fit with The Echo’s feelgood green, almost escapist, aesthetic. Accordingly if there’s a potential defamation in there then that’s a good excuse to chuck my letter in the bin, end of story, wow that was close. Let us imagine that the Byron

Caroline Pitt, guardian angel We first met the late Caroline Pitt 12 months ago having recently moved to Byron Bay from Sydney. Thai@Byron was our first dining experience in what was now our new home and we were thrilled with our new find. Caroline’s hospitality and warmth was just the welcome we needed as we struggled with questions of whether we had made the right decision leaving much loved family and friends behind. We dined at her restaurant often over the months and got

to know her reasonably well. Following a meal late one evening, my husband discovered the following morning that he had lost his wallet and after retracing our steps, concluded that it had to have been left behind at the restaurant. After contacting Byron Bay Police and being given Caroline’s home number my husband was reunited with his wallet. We will never forget Caroline’s concern at our plight and the effort she went to to assist

plistic or just plain ignorant, but I thought that the Australian constitution only allowed government of any level the right to levy taxes in order to provide services or build public works. Nowhere in this document does it say that governments federal, state or local, are in the business of making money off any of the taxes or charges they have collected. Put simply, they are only supposed to be allowed to collect money in order to provide services or infrastructure with it. Are they acting constitutionally when they take public money and try to make more money off it?

Fairly recently Uncle Worimi was attacked in a blatantly racist outburst by some of the local townspeople, and unbeknownst at the time, suffered a heart attack as well as head injuries. Last week he underwent open heart surgery, was given a two in seven chance of surviving the operation. He did and is recovering in hospital. While he is in hospital, the police have visited the site, broken some of his carved artwork and said that the site must be clear of any supporters of Worimi so that the RTA can move in and start bulldozing. It’s critical that awareness be generated, and if anyone has any skills or support they can offer, or even travel down to the site, please contact Malcolm ctcbulahdelah@gmail.com. There will be some car pooling from Byron Bay.

What Caroline did not know was that we had a flight to catch within the hour heading for Sydney to attend a coronial inquiry into the recent death of our son. Caroline had indeed

been a guardian angel on that morning and her generosity and goodwill meant more to us than she realised. Thank you for making us feel so welcome to Byron Bay, it is because of people like you that we intend to remain in the area. May God bless you and your family. Ian and Chris Bridger

Managing the coastline in the best interests of all I write to allay concerns that Council has decided to ‘allow nature to take its own course’ regarding management of the coastline. Firstly, this is an unhelpful statement of the intention of the range of policies and planning controls that are often referred

to collectively as the ‘planned retreat’ policy. A better starting point would be that the paramount objective of the policy is to manage the coastline in the best interests of all. All potential interventions that may be taken to prevent or minimise impacts, such as

Water Divining & Drilling If we don’t find water, you don’t pay anything. Harry Hensen 0428 270 956

erosion, must be assessed for the potential to cause further or more rapid damage. Isolated rock walls can cause increased erosion at neighbouring points along the beach that do not have protection. Placing rock walls along the entirety of the coastline hastens the erosion process to the point that ‘there is no beach left’, as Don Osborne noted last week. What are the costs for the town of Byron Bay and the economy of the Byron Shire once the world famous beach disappears? Not allowing the placement of rock helps to ensure that Byron Bay will continue to have a beach well into the future. This how-

ever does not mean that we simply allow ‘nature to take its own course’. The placement of sand filled bags known as geobags at erosion hot spots is an intervention that helps to rebuild the beach after severe erosion events by assisting the natural process of sand build up that occurs for much of the year. Geobags have been used in various locations including the Byron Surf Club, Belongil and other locations along the Shire coastline following severe erosion in 1999. They are not intended to prevent erosion during severe storms, but the rate of naturally occurring erosion will be slowed over the long term

due to the extensive rebuilding of the beach that usually follows erosion events. The end result is that the beach is retained and not eroded as fast as it would if just left or if rocks had It should be noted that landowners also retain the right to lodge a development application to undertake erosion protection works. Council and the community (notably Dunecare groups) also work to restore eroded and damaged dunes. In particular, Council will spend $200,000 restoring beach access points and degraded sections of dune along the Shire coastline following the May storms.

We have choices as to how we manage the coastline. All choices come with financial and environmental costs, which in many cases are too prohibitive for a small shire like Byron to afford or too damaging to the environment that supports us and our economy. Council will now publicly exhibit the Coastal Zone Management Plan (CZMP). With the benefit of public submissions, we have the opportunity to develop a CZMP that is able to guide future management of the coastline in the best interests of all Byron Shire residents.

the opportunity to reclaim what the ocean took previously. There is a substantial difference to the how the landscape was prior to the last major storm. The rebound effect of the waves against the unforgiving surface of boulders has stopped the beach from reforming. I had to walk on the boulders to prevent getting soaked, so my question is, If I fell over while climbing these slippery rocks, (as it is the only way to get to access the beach further up) who do I (theoretically) sue for damages? Byron Shire Council? The state government? Or the landowner who has encroached onto the (lol) beach? Also, while traversing this mishmash of broken sandbags and rocks, I discovered an upside down, rusty star picket sticking out at 45 degrees, locked under a thoughtlessly placed boulder. No-one has bothered to follow up on the ‘construction’. This picket would impale an adult and kill a child. Any legal opinions?

Story & photo Lou Beaumont

There is a new way for small businesses and residences to save money and energy through state government and federal government schemes respectively. Local company Coolplanet now conducts energy assessments for small businesses as part of the NSW government’s Energy Efficiency for Small Business Program and for residences as part of the federal government’s Green Loans Program. With electricity bills set to increase, Coolplanet’s Daniel Harper, pictured, suggests it is a good time to make use of such schemes. ‘Energy saving improvements give businesses and homes the opportunity to cut their emissions and save money too.’ If your business spends up to $20,000 a year on electricity or employs up to ten people, it is eligible for the Small Business Program. Subsidised by the Department of Environment and Climate Change NSW, the initial onsite energy assessment costs only $50 and determines the eligibility for further government subsidies on energy saving devices implemented as a result of the assessment. Harper then builds an action plan recommending how the

business could save electricity through improvements to existing equipment or the installation of new systems. From there there is no obligation to go ahead with recommended improvements. Harper says, ‘A rebate of up to $5,000 is available to pay for 50% of costs to implement action plan recommendations that have a return on an investment period of more than two years. Energy efficiency improvements can be anything from the obvious things like insulation, ventilation and lighting to the more obscure like heat reflecting paints and soft furnishings. ‘Often small changes like making better use of natural light or increasing the air con-

Percy Sheaffe and an American war Stephen Sheaffe

With the passing in December last year of well known local identity Percy Sheaffe, a connection with the American War of Independence has finally ended. In the middle of the eighteenth century Percy’s forebear, William Sheaffe was the

Deputy Collector of Customs for the British in Boston, Massachusetts and had been employed in the customs house for forty years prior to his death in 1771. In 1763 William and his young wife Susannah named their seventh child after his superior, the Collector of Customs, Roger Hale. By the time of William’s death in 1771 the family had eleven children, and the youngest, only a baby was also named William. Susannah, a strong, stoic and capable woman was required to rear her large protestant and royalist family without the assistance of a male breadwinner and to do this she acquired and operated a boarding house. During the War of Independence, Lord Percy, the leader of the British forces in Boston, resided for a time in Susannah’s boarding house. Lord Percy was so struck by the qualities and the leadership potential of the young Roger Hale Sheaffe that he funded his education in a military academy in the United Kingdom, remained a lifelong friend and as a benefactor, purchased Roger’s many Regimental Commissions. Roger served in the Napoleonic War and the War of 1812 in Canada where as the General in charge led the defence of Queenston Heights.

Left, Brunswick Heads identity Percy Sheaffe wears Sir Roger Hale Sheaffe’s coat, and right, a portrait of Lieutenant-General Hugh Percy, the second Duke of Northumberland, who was a patron to the Sheaffe family in the 18th century.

Due to the success of the defence of the town, Roger was appointed Governor of Upper Canada, received a Baronetcy and a small statue was erected to him not far from Niagara Falls. He retired to Edinburgh and died in 1851. The Percy family has had a long and significant connection to British history. Members of the family still reside at Alnwick Castle, Northumberland where they have resided for centuries. This magnificent and prominent castle was the setting for the first Harry Potter movie. Lord Percy and the ben-

eficiary of his largesse, Roger Hale Sheaffe were and still are, so admired by the succeeding generations of the Sheaffe family that, until recently, in every generation a new born son was named Percy Hale or Roger Hale Sheaffe. The recently departed Percy Hale Sheaffe is the last member of the family with this name and he is the last Sheaffe with the first name Percy. Similarly, when Percy’s youngest brother Roger died a few years ago, he was the last Roger Sheaffe. The connection to the American War of Independence is finally severed.

Secret Soviet whaling decimated pods Secret illegal Soviet whaling, during the years from 1947 to 1973, led to the decimation of some populations of humpback whales in the Pacific, according to a new study by collaborating marine researchers. Wally Franklin, a PhD student with Southern Cross University’s Whale Research Centre and co-director of The Oceania Project, was one of the contributors to the study, which was presented to the International Whaling Commission meeting held in Portugal earlier this year. Mr Franklin said while it had been known for some years that almost 100,000 whales had been killed secretly by the Soviet whaling fleet in the southern hemisphere, it had not been clear how this had impacted on the current humpback whale population. ‘It was always a mystery why the population of humpback whales off the east coast of Australia and in the Pacific region suddenly collapsed in the early 1960s,’ Mr Franklin said. ‘This new study has shown the link between the illegal catches during the late 1950s and early 1960s and the collapse of the Australian and Pacific populations.’

Wally Franklin, co-director of The Ocania Project, on board the research vessel Moon Dancer.

During the 1950s the whaling stations at Tangalooma (in Queensland) and Byron Bay each had a quota of whales which they could usually get in a couple of days. ‘By the early 1960s, all of a sudden they just couldn’t find any whales to meet the quotas and basically the industry collapsed,’ Mr Franklin said. ‘On the figures reported to the International Whaling Commission (IWC) that shouldn’t have happened.’

Mr Franklin said it had been surmised that more whales had been taken by the Soviets than were reported, but it was not until the late 1990s that the data confirmed it. ‘The Russians took about 25,000 whales in the years from 1959 to 1961, of which only a fraction were officially reported to the IWC,’ he said. ‘Our study has now linked the reported catches and the data recording the illegal catches

with the breeding areas in Antarctica, confirming suspicions that these illegal catches on top of earlier whaling did lead to the collapse of these populations. ‘It’s been established that only around 150 humpback whales survived out of those Pacific and east Australian populations, from what we believe to have been pre-whaling numbers of between 45,000 and 65,000 whales.’ Mr Franklin said while the east Australian population was showing a steady rate of increase, the population that migrated past New Zealand to places such as Fiji had not. ‘There were hundreds of whales reported off Fiji in the late 1940s and 50s, but the whales have not gone back and now there are virtually none,’ he said.

The Byron Bay Brewery & Buddha Bar / Restaurant is now brewing Established in the early 1970s, the Byron Bay Brewery and Buddha Bar / Restaurant enjoys a heritage of an era when rock concerts, hippies and long hair ruled the heart of Byron Bay. After beginning life in 1898 as a piggery, the bar was converted by artists and hippies into a world renowned venue for musicians and was popular with both local and international artists in the 1980s and 1990s. The original home of the East Coast Festival, the Buddha Bar has since become a hit with backpackers/tourists and locals. The recently refurbished Buddha Bar and Restaurant is now open for business.

Lulo Reinhardt

Your Mum’s so Funny Comedian and mother of three Jenny Wynter has just turned 30. She travelled overseas to find her fame, but instead had an epiphany about her family. ‘I went to Canada thinking it’s all about my career, I’ll make it and be a star, but what happened was it bought my family together for the first time and doing things like snowboarding and watching the kids learn, really bought us together. I think that’s what Canada has taught me, to focus on the seasonal thing, and find balance in my life, and realise there are times when things are insane and focused and downtimes when you just get to hang with your family.’ Being a woman on the comedy circuit can be tough. Wynter wants more from her career than just amusing a few drunks. ‘I have come back thinking I don’t want to do the standup comedy club circuits. I don’t want to perform for drunk shits. The last gigs in Canada I did went better than I thought they were going to and then on the last night I bought out a pin whistle and everyone was shit faced and this guy yells ‘blow it out your vagina’. I wasn’t even offended. I said, ‘thank you so much, you’ve reminded me why I don’t want to do these shit comedy rooms.’ Jenny travelled to Canada on an artist’s grant from the Brisbane City Council. She bundled up her husband and two kids and dragged them

half way round the world ...and then got pregnant again! ‘This pregnancy though was planned. We didn’t know when but we knew we wanted to have a third child. I was doing this residency at the Banff Centre in Canada where they have musicians and dancers and opera and I was there to work on my new show and I went through all my old notebooks and I found something I’d written a few years back that we’d decided to not have a third baby at that time because my career was going quite well, same as right now, there is no right time. We had him there, in Canada. I was quite terrified actually. I don’t think I ever remember being weighed once in Australia or having an internal and I had both done every visit, the whole birth process was different and being my third I thought, heck I’ll just phone this one in.’ In between comedy tours Jenny and her family settled in a small country town where her husband got work with a construction company and she worked in a video shop. ‘They had the best comedy collection I have ever seen in my life. I watched all the stand up. I probably watched over 150 comedy DVDs of the masters doing their long shows. It kind of inspired me. Billy Crystal early in his career says to his agent about a comic, that they were good,

and the agent says, ‘Yeah but they didn’t leave a tip.’ You want to leave the audience something to take with them when they leave the room, so it’s not just mindless drivel, not that I want to preach but I want to have something to say.’ And Jenny has a lot to say. ‘I feel like for the first time ever I really have something to say. It’s about life, about having kids.. I have things to say about what I think love is and touching on political stuff with the sense of looking at it through the eyes of motherhood.’ Jenny Wynter headlines at the Byron Services Club with Ellen Briggs and Mandy Nolan in a Mother of a Comedy NIght. Tickets are $15/20 and can be bought directly at the club or booked on 6684 3443.

Being the grand nephew of guitar genius Django Reinhardt shaped destiny for Lulo Reinhardt. ‘My whole family plays. When I was growing up, in every corner was a guitar. My cousin at the age of 10 was a super talent. As a child I listen to music every day and I start playing when I am 5. My father teach me every day. I was playing 4 or 5 hours every day. Like other kids play soccer. Do I become good? It depends on what your taste, on what it is to be good to you. To be your own musician is very important to me. To ďŹ nd my own style.’

They inspire me that’s why I play so much samba stuff. I pick up everything. I was in Africa, in China... you have to be open to different cultures and different rhythms. I am really open. I steal everything and put it in!

‘Also just as important are the musicians you play with. When putting music together you have to taste everything. It’s like cooking.

SMALL TOWN GUSSET I can’t believe it. The snappy crotch is back. I would have thought in the interests of public health and safety these would have been outlawed like lead-based make-up, goldfish in a platform heel and the root perm. But no, this gusset grabber is back. So I bought one. I couldn’t help it. I’m wearing it right now. In fact, I’m frightened to take it off. (I haven’t been to the bathroom for two days.) I didn’t buy it because it was practical, or remotely comfortable, or even attractive. I bought it because I didn’t think anyone would believe me unless I had the evidence! There’s not many items of clothing that can threaten to take out a labia, but the body suit is one of them. One fatal slip up doing up a hook and eye and you’ve got a very intimate piercing. You didn’t need a breath test when you wore a body suit with a snappy crotch. If you could do up the gusset then you were right to drive. Many the 80s Princess found herself in the toilet cubicle at the local disco struggling to reunite the two ends of her body suit. For some women it was their first introduction to yoga in a confined space. Who can forget the horror of being in polite conversation and hearing the dreaded Pop! Followed by the even more worrisome Pop! Pop! It was like the vagina had channelled Bruce Banner and was experiencing the clothes

tearing transformation of the Incredible Hulk. It’s a nasty image. But any woman who’s lived through the eighties knows the need for emergency response once that gusset starts rolling up like an angry venetian blind. Only sober women should wear body suits. There should be a warning. ‘Keep garment away from alcohol.’ I remember being on a date with a bloke I was hoping to impress. We were at a 21st dancing to Robert Palmer and drinking beer from a keg. Of course I drank too much. I know how much that impresses blokes. Ladies, there is nothing a fella likes more than a slurring, dribbling girlfriend that he has to carry to the car. If you really want to make your mark, then vomit on the back seat. You may never get a second date but he’ll have to sell the car to get rid of you. Anyway, it wasn’t until the photos came back I saw that halfway through the night I’m the chick dancing with the flappy crotch of the body suit hanging out the top of my jeans. It wasn’t until years later when I scanned the photo I counted four other women with their gussets experiencing the same party action as mine. So, if like me, you can’t resist the nostalgia of this lycra chastity belt (I haven’t even mentioned the finger tearing torment experienced by untrained hands who dared to dismantle), do yourself a favour and get a Brazilian first. Either that or get some waterproof mascara.

Early Bird Tickets to Mullum Music Fest 09 Last year saw the birth of a brand new event: The Mullumbimby Music Festival. This grassroots event presents independent music to independent people. With nearly every venue in Mullum pulsing with music, from the Drill Hall to the High School, The Courthouse, The Bowlo, The RSL and the Civic Hall, it’s an opportunity to experience a vibrant village full of music lovers. This is not a gated festival. This is a four day event when every venue, every corner of Mullumbimby vibes with reggae, acoustic, dance, jazz, swing, gypsy and more. It’s the kind of event where you can take your kids, have a coffee, have a dance, see a friend, and then catch one of the 50 plus acts on this year’s playing schedule. Mullum Music Festival 09 welcomes Tex Perkins, Jen Cloher and the Endless Sea, Simone White (USA), Archie Roach and Shane Howard, Djan Djan with Jeff Lang, Mamadou Diabate Mali and Bobby Singh, Washington, Nano Stern (Chile), Tinpan Orange, Washington, Vince Jones and many more.

Watt’s That Song is a new and exciting entertainment concept designed and presented by well known local musician, Brian Watt. Is it a game show? Is it a trivia show? Is it a gig? Watt’s That Song is actually a combination of all three. Whatever it is, it’s a hell of a lot of fun! A bit like Spicks and Specks, a bit like Rockwiz, a bit like a typical Brian Watt gig, there are prizes for those with the most points in each round. Wednesday at The Brunswick Heads Bowling Club from 6pm.

Don’t miss this chance to experience dynamic piano man Glory B in a rare solo performance, playing a variety of his original material as well as a choice selection of his favourite jazz tunes. Glory B is the man responsible for the closure of the Piano Bar night at the Middle Pub. After sending the crowd into raptures, he managed to break the doors, move the piano half way across the room, get pieeyed on cocktails and begin to conduct his own open mic night. Also on the night, is the songstress Ivy. A deep, dark, dynamic singer songwriter, she plays a unique, theatrical, dramatic cabaret style, with her performance varying from soft gentle tones to the wildest expressions of pleasure and

Television Guide 1. Martin Shaw is excellent as the detective inspector in George Gently (ABC, Friday 8.30pm), a well-written police drama set in 1960s northern England. Worth it just for the witty exchanges with his sidekick Detective Sergeant John Bacchus (Lee Ingleby). 2. The ill-fated Aaaliyah appeals to the night owls in Queen of the Damned (GO!, Saturday, 11.30pm), an adaptation of Anne Rice’s vampire series. 3. Break on through to the other side this Sunday afternoon at 3.30pm on ABC2 with The Doors: Live in Europe, filmed on their 1968. Their songs are consistently good and Jim Morrison is in the full flush of charisma.

Theatre: Old Times With sell-out shows, film screenings and music festivals, Mullumimby is fast becoming the arts and theatre hub of the shire. Byron Bay Theatre Company now makes use of the iconic Drill Hall to present Old Times by Harold Pinter.

Now a Mullumbimby resident, when he’s not travelling, he works closer to home teaching for the NIDA Open program and judging the Rock Eisteddfod in Brisbane. However, stage is his first love, and he is delighted to be joining the Byron Bay Theatre company and working with local actors Avikal, April Galetti

WITH LILITH

ARIES: Self control’s your greatest point of power right now, and exercising restraint your most rewarding choice this week, which isn’t guaranteed 100% free and easy, bright and breezy. With sweet Venus in your people zone, the less demanding you are the more fun you’ll have… TAURUS: This week is the year’s premier period for detoxing, fitness regimes and general lifestyle cleanouts, offering plenty of celestial support for Getting Stuff Done – as in chaos sorted, business taken care of, clutter chucked and all new ideas made to earn their keep. GEMINI: Rather than a dozen things at once, choose the one thing most important to your wellbeing and support that this week. Reduce friction caused by differences of opinion, agenda or expectations by remembering that the simpler you keep things the less can go wrong. CANCER: Human beings Competing when in less than peak shape is an occupational hazard for any sportsperson and chessplayers can be thrown out by anything that affects their ability to think clearly. A disability as minor as a headache or just tiredness can affect a player’s calculating ability – potentially fatal in a game where one mistake can ruin hours of hard work. Players can also be nobbled in various ways, as foreign players competing in the old Soviet Union often discovered. Food poisoning was common though probably not deliberate, but the midnight phone call was a common tactic to ensure that a player did not enjoy a full night’s sleep. (My first tournament in the USSR featured a room radio that would turn itself on at 4am and was impossible to turn off.) Illness is impossible to prevent entirely, although the world elite all have a fitness regime which reduces the risk to a minimum. In days gone by, all World

And you could see it as the next step in Your Fabulous Adventure … LEO: If life seems aggravating, mystifying or unclear this week, take some quiet time and listen to your inner guidance. If that doesn’t work, then just relax and remember two simple spiritual directives: 1) Don’t hurt anyone. And 2) Try to understand as much as you can. VIRGO: Others may not be as open as you hoped to your constructive suggestions this week. So let them be… right now the cosmic spotlight’s on numero uno, and astral aspects are all systems go for self improvement - with the emphasis on self. LIBRA: If something special you’d been counting on crashes, well, it’s a rich universe

and there’s plenty more opportunities out there with your name on. You mightn’t get everything going your way this week, but unlike some other signs that won’t stop you having fun trying. SCORPIO: If simmering discontents surface this week, either use critical feedback for your own good or erase, cancel and completely delete what doesn’t fit. Then apply that incisive mind to devising a whole lot of new, improved, time-saving, energy-efficient and exciting ways of operating. SAGITTARIUS: With everyone’s inner critic airing their opinions, shrewd Sagittarians will assess when it is and when it’s not advisable to share yours this week – which brings opportunities to upgrade your people skills by keeping for your own private amusement observations guaranteed to spark off verbal infernos. CAPRICORN: If people seem

great novel is a triumph. John Malkovich, an actor whom I misguidedly condemned beforehand as wrong for the part, is David Lurie, an amoral, aloof professor of English at Capetown University. He is booted from his post after having an affair with a student – about which he refuses to show any remorse – and moves from the cool, urbane Disgrace environment in which he has Going to see the film been cosseted to the arid, adaptation of a favourite book is a venture fraught with dusty interior to be with his trepidation and preconception. daughter Lucy (Jessica Haines), who, following post-Apartheid It’s not so much whether the land redistributions, shares a new version gets the details farm with the old black man, right (Bond’s eyes, as Fleming said a million times, were steely Petrus (Eric Ebouaney). An awful crime is committed blue, Connery’s as dark as teak), what matters is whether and Lucy’s reaction to it is incomprehensible to Lurie. or not the essence of the She is strong-willed, but at the written word has survived the transplant. For me, ‘Possession’ same time resigned to fate, like the dogs kept at the pound (it made it, ‘The Shipping News’ is the cruelest of metaphors), didn’t. (So did ‘Fever Pitch’, and Lurie’s self-satisfied but blimey, that was just a certainties are annihilated. bloke’s ode to football, not More disarming than Coetzee’s nothin’ brainy like literature.) unflinching gaze at black/white Anna Maria Monticelli’s relations is his frank account screenplay of J.M. Coetzee’s

too long to hear the vibes that supercharged a whole generation and, ironically, the first raunchy electric chords that are inserted as atmos are of the Doors’ ‘Maggie McGill’, recorded a year after the event (it’s a nitpicking crit, but it does seem out of character for the meticulous Ang Lee). Canned Heat’s ‘Goin’ Up The Country’ gets an airing, as does the Jefferson Airplane’s rabble rousing ‘Volunteers Of America’, but in truth, I was hanging out for it to close with Jimi’s ‘Star Spangled Banner’. Instead, it ends with 21st century cynicism and sour portent. On horseback and surrounded by litter, like a general after a battle (reflecting what is suggested in the movie’s title), Billy speaks with glassy-eyed idealism of the next campaign. ‘A free concert, in California, with the Rolling Stones’, i.e., the murderous Altamont. ~ John Campbell

Taking Woodstock Ang Lee does not make joyous films. He is a patient director who always finds a sweet spot, but he never leaves you soaked in joie de vivre. In taking a behind the scenes look at how the 1969 Woodstock festival came about, he has adhered to the philosophy that ‘anything can become interesting if you watch it long enough’. It’s an idea that doesn’t always hold water. Are we not all aware of the greed and politicking that underpin such events? Elliot (Demetri Martin), to save his parents from bankruptcy, teams up with Billy (Emile Hirsch), a long-haired entrepeneur seeking a venue for his outdoor concert. Upon learning of advance tickets sales, farmer Max Yasgur ups the price for the use of his property from $5,000 to $75,000 and the Mob move in for their slice of the cake. Doubtless it happened, but should we care? Imelda Staunton, an actress inclined to overdo it, nearly irritates the life out of things with her ridiculous performance as the money-crazed Jewish mother and I kept wanting to adjust the brightness for the interior shots. The highlight comes when Elliot drops his first tab of acid and enters the Kombi owned by a West Coast hippy (Paul Dano from ‘Little Miss Sunshine’) and his girlfriend. Drug episodes are frequently poorly done, but Elliot’s trip rings true, enhanced as it is by the music of that neglected genius of the psychedelic, the late Arthur Lee. Hallucinating, Elliot leaves the van to make his way to the concert and when he sees the distant stage in a broiling sea of humanity it is a vision splendid, and it blows his mind. You wait

of the male’s ungovernable sex drive, and director Steve Jacobs does not tip-toe around either issue. By journeying into a psychic landscape rarely visited, no movie this year has got so deep under my skin, none shocked and outraged me quite as much, even though I knew where it was headed. Unfortunately, it is doubly burdened by an uninviting title and the stigma of being an Australian flick (why else was there no other person in the vast Cinema One at the session I attended?). But it’s so much tougher than anything yet presented by the show-pony Tarantino and deals with race in a way that exposes ‘Samson And Delilah’ as insipid. When it comes down to it, life’s most profound lessons, the ones we most need to learn, often come at a terrible price and are, sadly, not absorbed until late in the day. Lurie quells the madness in his heart and is elevated by the supreme, sometimes irrational effort demanded by forgiveness. A thing of shattering beauty. ~ John Campbell

who live in an isolated central Australian desert community. Directed by Warwick Thornton, this is his first feature film as writer/director after a number of successful short films and an impressive career as one of this country’s top cinematographers. The story is a simple one, offering a snapshot into the lives of the two teenagers stuck in a rut in the remote community. But it is not predictable, nor does Thornton tell the story as you might expect. His screenplay is extraordinary for its succinctness; not a meaningless word is spoken. Even more extraordinary is the fact that the two unknown, inexperienced leads (Rowan McNamara and Marissa Gibson) hardly talk to each other. Their communication is through gestures and visual cues. This film has been described by critics as one of the most wonderful films this country has ever produced. ~ Lounge Cinema

In honour of Fathers Day this column is doing a rare thing: a competition with prizes. Inspiration struck recently at the farmers’ market where the abundance of everything suggested so many things I wanted to cook for someone special, that hypothetical dishes were tripping over themselves in their eagerness to be chosen. For all the cynicism which tends to be levelled at festivals such as Fathers Day, it seems to me a harmless excuse to acknowledge the people you love. And what better way than by cooking a beautiful, thoughtful meal. The competition seeks the most mouth-wateringly delicious three-course meal based as far as possible on ingredients available at local farmers’ markets.

Oh the mighty, mighty, Hot Pies! Junior Giants have mixed end to season Silver Threads U10’s had a fantastic game this week and a fantastic end to another great season. The boys played a very exciting game against Cudgen but ran out of time on the field to be defeated 28-30. A great game was played by Damian Lang, Jackson Emery, Aaron Cramer and there was an amazing length of the field try, from Luke Caldwell. Well done boys, it seems a shame to end the season now, when you are finally coming togeather as a team and really playing some great footy. The coaches would like to thank all the players and parents for a great year.

The Ocean Shores Bakery U11s lost their final game of the season to a determined Bilambil side. Nat Russell was man of the match, Lachlan Holmes had a great game as well. Sam Morley ran hard and saved a try by tackling the opposition. Jacob Toovey runs hard and is always a team player. The McDonalds Meats U12s won against the Seagulls. Dylan Esterich scored three tries, Tom O’Shea a try and Harry who powered through the opposition to go under the posts. Special mention must go to Sam Batson as well as Jack De Costa, Man of Match.

Bangalow union wins a place in Grand Final A thrilling game saw Byron Bay win the North Coast AFL Championship. On a hot and windy day at Coffs Harbour’s ‘Leisure Park’ – a paddock the size of Melbourne’s Waverly Park – Byron Bay Public School played a skilful and determined team from Tacking Point Public School to decide the North Coast champions in the PSSA, AFL knockout competition. Playing against the wind, Byron scored first with a point and a goal which was answered by Tacking Point who scored a goal in the last minutes of the first quarter. The second quarter saw Byron using the wind well to score 2 goals, 2 behinds to Tacking Point’s 1 behind. In the third quarter, Tacking Point’s players combined well

to achieve 4 goals, and 1 behind with Byron working hard to score a further goal. With Tacking Point leading by 5 points going into the last quarter all players put in a spirited performance. The ball moved from end to end with both teams showing clean skills with fluid passages of play and determined defensive work. Byron managed to score a point, then with just 3 minutes remaining Joe Beckers took a defiant mark, about 20 metres from goal, and with a straight kick put Byron in the lead. Despite continued pressure from Tacking Point, that was the last score of the game and Byron came away with a thrilling 2 point win. Byron’s following group of Reade Oliver, Jacob Ogden

and Gus Ducasse were stand out performers who consistently put Byron into positive positions, well supported by Jun Touzel at centre, Joe Beckers, Cameron Daniels, Dylan Leacy, and Jules Amsden in the forward line and Kiel Lobel, Rielly McCollom, Eli Sthapit, and Dylan Vansetten in defense. The team has had fantastic support from Jamie Touzel, who is training the team. Parent support from Gary Ducasse and Richard Beckers , who goal umpired and ran water to the players and Greta Touzel’s vigorous verbal support, is greatly appreciated by all of the players. The team’s next game is against Greta Public School from the Singleton area, in about 2 weeks time and is a home game for Byron Bay.

Bangalow contested the major semi final at and against Yamba last Saturday. Two weeks prior in the last round game again against Yamba, Bangalow got thumped 41-0, so there was quite a gap to make up. The week started off well with a solid training session and a stomping charge against Welshy Griff, being down graded by one game after an appeal was successfully fought thanks to some excellent work by Mark Baker from Barbican Lawyers, assisted by Ralph James. Yamba won the toss and ran with the wind. Bangalow dug in, stuck to their game plan and was narrowly the better of the sides at half time; with the score locked at nil all in a typical semi final first half tussle. The game opened up in the

second half with Kerry Jennings scoring a converted try straight after the break from 1 metre out after some great lead up work by the piggies. This got the ball rolling and Bangalow started to lift, dominating possession and field position to score a further three converted tries to Niel Moran, Dick Collins and Nick Hornery. Yamba never game up and was always threatening but Bangalows defense held strong only letting in one try. The final result was 28-7. Everyone stood up and did their jobs which made for a great team effort. Bangalow finally showed they are capable of making the 2009 season a success and will contest the Grand final against either Kyogle or Yamba at Crozier Field Lismore in two weeks.

The sign-on for one of our great local clubs, the Mullum Brunswick Cricket Club, will be held on the following dates and times at Brunswick Heads Grounds.

Shore’s Sharks take a minute for Taylem Larter

Before the match at New Brighton on Saturday, the grade 14 players from both the Shore’s Sharks and the Ballina club, took a minute to remember a mate and the local boys dedicated their 8-1 win to Taylem Larter. Photo Rick Knight

Shark’s supporter Taylem Larter from Billinudgel, lost his long battle with cancer during the week. Taylem is the younger brother of the Shark’s player Jara from Billinudgel and as a mark of respect for a ‘fallen’ brother, the Shores United Sharks and Ballina players in the grade 14 game at New Brighton, lined up and held a minutes silence for Tay before playing on Saturday.

The Shores Sharks went on to overpower Ballina 8-1 and dedicated their win to the memory of Taylem. The boys had a lot to play for in the last game before the semi finals. A win against Ballina would confirm their status as Minor Premiers. However what seemed to take precedence was who would score their 100 th goal of the season. With 20 minutes to go and the

score at 5-1 it wasn’t the win that was in doubt but whether they could score the magic 100 and who would it be. Sharks Coach Marc Patten has a formidable team with 11 different players on this season’s goal scoresheet and he moved his players around to give them all a chance to score. However the pressure took its toll and shot after shot went wide or hit the crossbar, but it

was Carl Foreman who finally gave them cause for celebration scoring the magic 100th and becoming the ‘Centurion’. Carl had his boots shined on the spot amongst high fives, pats on the back and loud cheers from the large crowd. With the pressure off, another two goals came in quick succession just before the full time whistle. It took the total to 102 goals in 15 games with only 12

Giants Reserves and Firsts make it to the semis

scored against them and only one loss all season. The Sharks are looking hot contenders to take out the Premiership double if they can keep cool heads through the finals series. The Sharks have already booked their place in the world famous Gold Coast Cup Tournament later this year and are looking for local sponsorship for the week long competition. The boys will play teams from all over Australia and overseas and are hoping to emulate the Shores United All Girls ‘Redbacks’ who won the tournament last year. If you would like to be involved and can help out by sponsoring the boys or any other type of support please give their coach Marc Patten a call on 0405 619 076.

? The Giants put their stamp on semis in the quest for a grand ruby league over the weekend final berth. and now both the first and reThe match was an eventful serve grades will head to the and exciting win for the locals

Update on Donati As reported in last week’s Echo Reuben Donati has had a very successful cycling season winning the NSW under 23 road cycling championships over a distance of 170km. On Sunday August 2 in Kurrajong (near Blue Mountains), Reuben convincingly won the race, the rider who came in second place was over 3 minutes behind Reuben. www.echo.net.au

Three weeks later, Reuben raced again at Kalabar in soaring temperatures of 34 degrees. Reuben again showed his mettle when he won the Queensland under 23 road cycling championships over a distance of 175km. Second place went to a cyclist from New Zealand who trailed Donati by about was 8 minutes.

and if John Campbell weren’t on a very well deserved break, he would have been eloquent in his usual excellent report-

ing of the match, suffice to say that the Mullum beat Northern United at Les Donnelly Field in a 30-16 win.
