Tourist accommodation Kids get their own space at Show on the cards at The Pass Tourist accommodation at The Pass is one of the options the Cape Byron Trust has in mind in its amendments to its management plan. The draft amendment notes: ‘A range of options are [sic] available to provide refreshments at The Pass including a café or kiosk and/or mobile vendors. ‘Depending on the outcome of investigations into the provision of refreshment facilities, it may also be appropriate to consider redevelopment of the existing café building for visitor and tourist accommodation. ‘This option will have the benefit of providing an additional income stream to the Trust as well as providing an additional facility for visitors. All revenue raised on the Reserve is retained on the Reserve for the ongoing maintenance and improvement of visitor facilities and environmental protection. ‘The traffic management and site design of the car parking, vessel launching and picnicking areas is also being investigated to ensure improved

traffic flow, maximum car parking within the existing area, improved pedestrian access and visitor facilities. ‘Expressions of Interest are being called for a number of options for the provision of refreshments at The Pass. The options include continued use of the existing building as a café, redevelopment of the current building as a kiosk, a new kiosk in the existing picnic/ toilet area, and/or a mobile refreshment vendor.’ In a press release Cape Byron Trust chairperson Yvonne Stewart said, ‘The current lease on the building commonly known at The Pass Café has expired and repairs and environmental assessments are being undertaken on the building. In the meantime the Trust is keen to use this opportunity to consider the best options for the location and the users. ‘We are also looking at improvements to the carpark, vessel launching layout and visitor facilities at The Pass to maintain existing car parking areas continued on page 5

Kids in violent fight at Mullum Victoria Cosford

What started out as a harmless Halloween Party on Saturday night for a Year 9 Mullumbimby girl exploded into violence – with an 18 year old youth fighting to save his eye in a Brisbane hospital. According to Inspector Owen King, around 100 teenagers converged on the event, held at the Old Drill Hall. Police attended firstly at 9pm and confiscated water bombs, eggs and alcohol; they remained in the area until about 11.30pm. Three youths were taken home due to their intoxicated state and the 18-year old conveyed to a Brisbane hospital after a fight broke out with ‘unknown persons’ during which he was punched and kicked. Inspector King emphasised that ‘police have major concerns because no security was allocated to the event and due to its poor organisation’. At

this stage enquiries are continuing and a number of witnesses are being interviewed. The identity of the offender remains unknown and anyone with any information which might assist is asked to come forward. The Media Unit at Lismore Base Hospital had ‘no comment to make – it’s a police matter.’ According to one parent, the fight was due to ‘too much alcohol. An argument starts between two guys, one an “invader” from Byron, the other a turf-conscious lad from Mullum. ‘Another boy has head injuries from a beer bottle smashed over his head. Other kids are nursing injuries as well. My 15 year old son watched sickened as the boot went into the boys on the ground on Saturday night. ‘What is it going to take before this community wakes up to itself and seriously tackles this complex problem?’

Sunday Funday’s highlight is the pet show competition compared by Cockatoo Paul where it’s more for laughs than serious competition. There will be prizes from the Mullumbimby Pet Shop to be won in a range of categories including the most unique pet, the best trick, most colourful pet, dog with the waggiest tail and cat with the longest whiskers. Humans can join in too to win for most alike pet and owner and best dressed pet and owner. There is no entry fee and the competition is open to all ages. Organiser Torsten Wiedemann said, ‘Kids love their pets and this is great way to show them off, win prizes and have fun. There is a category for everyone, so just bring your pet along

and enter. This isn’t just for cat and dogs either – if you have an unusual pet we want to see it. ‘We want to involve the whole Mullumbimby community in our local show so this is a great way for the kids to take part who might not live on a farm.’ There will also be a mini-animals and petting zoo where children have the chance to cuddle a soft alpaca or a big fluffy Italian sheepdog. Other animals in the zoo include mini sheep, pigs and goats, miniature cattle, silkie chickens, spotty sheep, ducks and ducklings and a miniature calf. Dog training school Barco will be on hand for training tips and will exhibiting training skills. The Sustainable Kids Space is all about keeping the little ones entertained and it not costing the earth. continued on page 2

Belongil Beach last week became, briefly, a classroom for about twenty Class 9 students from Cape Byron Rudolf Steiner School. The lesson, part of their required Geography studies, was on coastal management and erosion and, apart from geography teacher and Byron Shire Councillor Simon Richardson, was conducted by Charlie Hewitt, environmental engineer with GeoLink. The students sat on massive sandbags while Charlie largely held the floor – or the sand – discussing the various issues surrounding the provocative question of coastal erosion and specifically its local pertinence. GeoLink, with offices in Lennox Head and Coffs Harbour, is a multidisciplinary consultancy involved in environmental and ecology planning, civil and environmental engineering, landscape architecture and land-use law. In the words of Charlie, ‘it is intimately involved in coastal, engineering and developmental issues facing the Shire. ‘There are many complex questions about living in places like Belongil’, he shouted

into the wind,’ and I don’t have the answers, though lawyers have been getting very rich with all the to-ing and fro-ing going on‌’ He outlined some of the solutions proposed for coastal erosion – doing nothing; planned retreats; artificial reefs and headlands – although pointed out that while benefits could be perceived in each of them, none had yet been proven to have a positive effect. The matter of public beach amenity and its loss – the ability to walk

along the beach, for example, or to surf – was explored in the context of these various solutions as was the issue of who should pay for the protection of a small number of private houses. ‘Building sea walls and protecting property involves spending public money’, explained Charlie, ‘and also destroys public amenity of the beach.’ Then again, he pointed out, taxes go toward bush fire protection and ‘no-one questions that.

‘Maybe’, he went on, ‘we haven’t thought about these questions enough.’ There was also the issue of both the emotional and financial investments in coastal homes under threat, not to be dismissed. ‘These are people’s homes’, he reminded everyone. Various questions were asked by the students before they launched off to observe and record the various types of vegetation behind the dunes. Simon Richardson told The Echo that ‘as a teacher, an opportunity to move away from faraway case studies of coastal management and to use a case study in the students’ backyard was too opportune to pass up... (and) as a councillor, I feel that it is imperative that the future inheritors of this region are fully engaged with the issues of today.’ Charlie’s role with GeoLink is Project Manager for the Ballina Coastline Management Plan, based in Lennox Head. He explained that GeoLink always dedicates time to volunteering its services and to sharing its knowledge. ‘We’re very keen on being part of the local community,’ he told The Echo.

Kids have their own space at Mullumbimby Show From front page

Kids (and their parents) will learn how to use organic paints, natural fabrics, seeds, nuts, leaves, twigs, pasta and the vast abundance that nature provides to bring out their creativity and joy. It is next to the Food Pavilion allowing parents a relaxing break while the kids let loose in the secure shaded play area. Prizes can also be won by primary schools students in the colouring-in competition. The picture can be download-

ed at the website or collected from participating schools. These schools will collect the finished pictures or they can be mailed with name, school and grade to: Vicki Iggleden, PO Box 125, Billinudgel 2483. Local schools are also competing in the Scarecrow Competition and scarecrows will be displayed all weekend. Children can also prepare entries in the fruit and vegetable, sewing, art and craft, cooking and flower sections to be displayed in the Pavilion. The

entries will be auctioned on 2pm on Sunday November 15 to raise money for the Westpac Life Saver Rescue Helicopter. A country show wouldn’t be complete without the livestock exhibits and Mullumbimby will host competitions in poultry, beef cattle and horses which are all open to child exhibitors. Small and big kids alike are sure to enjoy the truck and ute show all weekend and motorbikes of all ages displayed on Sunday. There are also markets

and buskers, community information stalls and great food and coffee. All members of the community are invited to join the Show Society for $10 a year which entitles members to free entry into the Show – a bargain if you plan to go both days.

Bruns chamber picks up state award

Brunswick Heads Chamber of Commerce president Matthew Denehy and executive officer Kim Rosen with the award.

‘We have extended ourselves a bit beyond the usual scope of a Chamber. Apart from the usual business development, networking, advocacy and marketing roles that you would expect, we have also taken on a few other challenges and projects,’ said Matthew. ‘However, we make sure that all these are in line with the community’s vision and its values. We’re a small community and if we all work together and in harmony we can achieve some great things and take control of our own destiny.’ Kim and Matthew were invited to speak the next morning at a brunch with the other

award nominees and Industry and Investment NSW Minister, Philip Costa, to tell Brunswick’s story and outline the projects undertaken by the Chamber. Some of the main initiatives included CBD and Tweed Street streetscaping, the three family friendly events, Kites and Bikes, Old and Gold and the Simple Pleasures Photo Competition, the ‘Taking Care of Brunswick’ Tourism Management Plan, the ‘Buy Local’ educational campaign with its own Bruns dollars, and the construction of a skatepark for the kids. But the highlights have probably been the Simple Pleasures

campaign and the establishment of the Visitor Centre/ Project Office in 2006. ‘We set out to differentiate ourselves from other coastal towns, to retain our family-friendly laidback village lifestyle and to attract visitors who love Brunswick for all the reasons we do,’ said Kim. So what’s next? Matthew, 37, and still a skateboarder, is hoping that Council will have the skatepark built for the kids early next year. ‘We are working in overdrive to make the Visitor Centre/Project Office financially sustainable by July 2010,’ said Kim, ‘and if we can get a couple more corporate sponsors or some funding from Council, we’ll do it! ‘The master plan for the Tweed Street streetscape has been prepared and should go on public exhibition soon for comment, so that is exciting! And then we’ll see what ideas come out of the business survey we are currently conducting.’ In a press release Minister Costa said, ‘Brunswick Heads Chamber of Commerce has done a marvellous job in developing the business community and raising funds.’ See also www.business.nsw. gov.au/region.

The Brunswick Heads Chamber of Commerce was feted as the best business organisation in regional NSW by NSW Industry & Investment at the NSW Regional Achievement and Community Awards Gala dinner on Saturday night. Kim Rosen, executive officer, Matthew Denehy, president of the Chamber, and Robert Rosen travelled to Bathurst for the Awards night. Kim accepted the award and prize, the heavy glass trophy and a lucrative television advertising campaign from Prime Television, on behalf of the Chamber teams past and present. She was quick to point out that this was a whole town effort and acknowledged the role of all the business members, Visitor Centre staff, volunteers and other partners. Anne Pitchers and Pieter Verasdonck, from Industry and Investment NSW, were singled out for appreciation for their guidance and support over the last ten years, and for ‘believing in us’. Over the last 12 years the small but energetic Chamber, with a growing membership of 91 out of 116 businesses, has taken on a stewardship role to revitalise the economy and grow jobs, but not at the expense of the community.

Councils seek govt clarity on holiday letting At the the local government conference in Tamworth last week the following motion was passed unanimously: ‘That the Local Government Association once again call on the New South Wales Government and the Department of Planning to expedite as a matter of urgency either a statewide policy position on short-term holiday rentals that permits these businesses to operate in residential

areas, subject to enforceable provisions designed to protect the amenity of neighbouring residents, or the enabling of local councils to include ‘local clauses’ in their LEP so that councils may choose to include short term holiday rentals in their LEP, subject to restrictions designed to protect the amenity of neighbouring residents and contingent on such premises being registered with Council.’

Kiama Council put up the motion, noting that it had ‘attempted to include “local clauses� in the Local Environmental Plan to provide for short term holiday rentals with apppropriate regulation. The NSW Department of Planning has advised Council that the NSW government is prepared to introduce a statewide policy position on short term holiday rentals. The outstanding issue

of short term holiday rentals is causing significant angst for owners of properties being rented for short term holidays and for local residents. ‘Council submitted a similar motion to the 2008 LGA Conference. It was noted that the matter was subject to ongoing work and appropriate representations by the Association. To date there has been no resolution of the matter.’

The course aims to teach through the heart, hand and mind and to bring our efforts to fruition through love of the deed. GRAIL QUEST is also the prerequisite for the Steiner Teacher Training programme.

Helfgott plays for Steinway concert Victoria Cosford

It has been five years since the Steinway piano was dramatically lowered into the Byron Bay Community and Cultural Centre. To celebrate its fifth anniversary there will be a special concert on Sunday November 15, starring David Helfgott. Margot Dods has been artistic director of the Byron Music Society – responsible for presenting the concert – since the society started up in 1992. She told The Echo what ‘an enormous advantage to the Community Centre’ the piano has been. ‘It was very frustrating for me to ask artists of the calibre of David Helfgott to come and play’, she explained. Grand pianos were periodically hired to attract musicians like Roger Woodward and funding was regularly applied for but it wasn’t until the fundraiser which drew $90,000 and enabled the acquisition of the Steinway that she felt sufficiently confident to invite high-profile artists. Suddenly, she said, ‘top pianists were available’ to visit the Shire. Of the David Helfgott con-

cert Margot said that we can expect ‘a very brilliant pianist with enormous technique and phenomenal memory (who is) very good on the big romantic pieces. He is always exciting, he’s different every time, and just gives out love and music.’ Meanwhile, all next year’s concerts are already planned. There are to be five, the highlight being a concert by the 2008 winner of the Sydney Pi-

ano Competition Konstantin Shamray on June 13, as part of his 30-concert tour of Australia. General manager of the community centre Paul Spooner told The Echo that the Steinway ‘is a fantastic asset for the community to have...it’s something that’s always talked about.’ He said that since he has been at the helm he has been ‘amazed at the diversity with which it is

used – not only for high-profile people like David Helfgott but also for high school shows.’ He is looking forward to more extensively utilising it in the future. David Helfgott plays the Steinway Anniversary Concert on Sunday November 15 at 4pm. Tickets ($40, or $35 for members) are already on sale (and selling fast) from the Community Centre.

Council stages discussion on coastal plan Byron Shire Council will hold a ‘facilitated panel discussion’ on its draft Coastal Zone Management Plan (CZMP) on Friday November 6 from 4pm in Council Chambers in Mullumbimby. Representatives from key organisations and previous committee members have been invited to speak on the draft CZMP. The evening will feature presentations from community representatives, technical experts and will be run by an independent facilitator. Council’s director of planning Ray Darney said presentations

will include topical issues such as coastal management under the impacts of climate change, an overview of the draft CZMP and speakers from BEACON, Dunecare, Belongil Progress Association and Byron United. ‘We will also be inviting previous committee members from Brunswick Heads, South Golden Beach/New Brighton and Suffolk Park areas to present on the evening.’ The draft CZMP is on exhibition until Tuesday December 22. Copies of the draft CZMP and accompanying information are available for viewing

at community access points around the Shire including the Federal Store, Bangalow Post Office, Summerland Credit Union Ocean Shores, Suffolk Park Holiday Park Shire Libraries, and Council’s Administration Centre, Station Street Mullumbimby, 9am to 4pm. Community information stands on the draft CZMP will be available during November at various coastal locations. Further information regarding the community information stands will be advertised nearer to the confirmed dates. A copy of the draft CZMP

and supporting information is also available on Council’s website www.byron.nsw.gov. au/public-exhibitio . Submissions may be lodged online at www.byron.nsw.gov.au/public-exhibition and submission forms are also available from community access points. Written submissions should be addressed to The General Manager, PO Box 219, Mullumbimby NSW 2482, clearly marked ‘Submission – Draft Byron Shire Coastal Zone Management Plan’. ■ Comment, page 10, Letters,

Country Energy spends $490K on Mullum upgrade Country Energy is about to start work on a $490,000 project in West Mullumbimby to upgrade the electricity infrastructure, increasing the capacity of powerlines and reinforcing the network. The The major investment in the region’s essential services will improve power capacity, quality and reliability, as well as providing greater ground clearances for powerlines in vegetation areas. Country Energy’s regional general manager Far North Coast, Richard Wake, said the investment is part of Country Energy’s ongoing commitment to providing value and service to the Mullumbimby community. ‘We’re reinforcing the network across the region which includes the replacement of powerlines that supply the Ocean Shores area via West www.echo.net.au

Mullumbimby, which will provide a more robust, dependable and safe electricity supply to residents.’ The upgrade will involve crews replacing 16 kilometres of powerline with new, stronger, thicker and more reliable aluminium lines and over 15 power poles, to increase ground clearance for powerlines – particularly where vegetation exists. The work will increase the capacity of the powerlines ‘allowing for future growth and a more reliable supply of essential services’. ‘Keeping our customers in mind we will be investigating the use of specialised live line techniques to minimise the disturbance to customers,’ Richard said. ‘Live line techniques involve crews working on the network while it’s still

energised meaning customers will not have to have an interruption to their power supply. However, Country Energy is advising customers that some residents will experience a small number of planned supply interruptions so that crews can finish the work safely. Customers affected by the improvement works will be notified by mail. ‘As we work to improve the

electricity supply in the area we recognise that the project’s planned supply interruptions may cause some inconveniences – we thank customers for their patience during this time,’ Richard said. The refurbishment of power infrastructure around Mullumbimby is part of $99 million Country Energy is spending to improve and maintain its north coast network.

Farewell to Annette Coyle

Christmas Fair for Mullum

Environmental campaigner and Byron Bay resident Annette Coyle died recently of cancer, aged 57. She was active in many north coast environmental campaigns and a founding member of the Byron Environment Centre. Sydney born and raised, Annette married Peter Coyle in 1975 and they had two sons, Ben and Luke. They moved to the north coast in 1977 and after living in several locations settled in Byron in 1980. Annette held a keen interest in triathlon competition from 1988 to 1992 and often swam across the Bay. ‘People always commented on my beautiful stroke [taught by Forbes Carlisle],’ she told the ABC in 2001. ‘I taught swimming in Darwin for a while till my hair turned green!’ Mayor Jan Barham told The Echo, ‘Annette was one of the kindest, most caring people I have ever encountered. She was a nature lover and an early advocate for environmental protection and amenity in our local area. The passing of Annette represents the loss of one of our local angels.’ Greens MP Ian Cohen described Annette as ‘a warm hearted, giving friend to so many. Annette loved and nurtured her home Byron and was a strong, quiet support for the entire Byron community.’ Annette was a member of the Byron Environment Centre when it was a shopfront in the Cavanbah Arcade in Byron Bay. She was one of the

Mullumbimby businesses are organising a Christmas Fair at the Mullumbimby Civic Hall on Wednesday November 11 from 6.30pm. Organiser Tracey Dingley said, ‘We are hoping that customers will enjoy the relaxed vibe of this unique market in the beautifully restored Civic Hall. People seem to really appreciate buying gifts that are made by locals and the market, with its great atmosphere, great food and good music will be far less stressful than a trip to the shopping centre! ‘It’s also a chance to meet the people who create the gifts and enjoy their stories. The Fair will showcase unique and hard to find items like gorgeous jewellery from Mondo Rondo and Victoria Spring or traditional toys, nurturing skin care and homewares. ‘If you want an excuse to buy a present for yourself you can’t got past the beautiful clothing and accessories that will also be on sale. And it isn’t just about shopping! Indulge your appetite with festive delights from D-Lush and indulge your senses with the beautiful sounds of Juan Cockatoo’s acoustic guitar. ‘Plus there are chances to win a spectacular range of prizes donated by the many stall holders. All items will be on sale on the night and EFTPOS is available.’ For more information on what’s in store on the night visit www.mullumchristmasshopping.blogspot.com.

initial members of the Byron Greens and was a candidate in the federal election in 1996 when she contested the seat of Richmond. Annette’s friends Jill Keogh and Jo Faith said, ‘The passing of Annette Coyle is deeply saddening. Annette was an Earth Goddess in the truest sense of the word. Long flowing natural blonde hair, piercing green eyes, and wonderful freckly skin that glowed from those morning swims. ‘We must pay homage to the legacy of Annette’s environmental and social justice record. Any newcomer to Byron cannot take the beauty of our natural environment for granted. Her unique skills contribute to the existing beauty of the Byron region. ‘Annette, together with Richard Staples and Jo Faith were the founding members of the No Club Med campaign. This

was an intense campaign that was daily and nightly brainstormed in order to mobilise the community. Annette created the most beautiful submissions in a handwriting that was a pure artform. This was the early nineties, before access to email. Her dedication and energy were without match. ‘Working from the Byron Environment Centre, Annette inspired many people with her campaigns to save Paterson Street, Sandhills as well as initiating a peace bus in which activists travelled to Canberra protesting against war and militarism. She later went to Southern Cross University and wrote many letters advocating a Bill of Rights for Australian democracy. ‘Her battle with cancer was remarkable for Annette’s spirit rose above any downhearted moment. She was such a focussed person and her organisational skills were much admired. During her illness she never complained. In fact, she was such a person of humour it was relishing to see the tears of joy running down her face when deeply amused. ‘She will be much missed. Her dedication to the things she believed in serve as a real model for any woman working for social justice and the environment.’ Family and friends want to acknowledge the warmth and support of the Byron Bay Hospital staff and all those associated with caring for her during her illness.

gest that a Master Plan is actually a requirement, given the site is located within the SEPP 71 Coastal Protection zone boundaries. ‘While the DA provides a

conceptual SEPP 71 Master Plan, more detail – and community input in my opinion – is required.’ The matter will be reported to Council on November 12.

Watch out for the birds, says BBB Byron Bird Buddies said it has been watching many of the Letters to the Editor with interest regarding dog issues on our beaches and is ‘happy to report that lately there has been a noticeable decrease in the number of dogs going into the protected areas of the Billinudgel and Brunswick Nature Reserves and some decrease in dog numbers at the Belongil Estuary. ‘It appears our message is getting through and we hope that this is due to the increased understanding by the public for the reasons why we need to protect these sensitive areas, such as allowing migratory shorebirds to rest and feed undisturbed. Of course, the decrease may also be due to the increased ranger activity during the breeding season. ‘Members are also happy to report that we have five breeding pairs of the threatened Pied Oystercatchers in the Brunswick and Belongil estuaries this season who have hatched chicks in the last few weeks.

In the Brunswick Estuary, the Pied Oystercatchers nest in inaccessible places and there has nearly always been a 100% success rate, with six chicks surviving this year. Unfortunately, at Belongil, the two nesting pairs still continue to be disturbed by dogs and people who disregard the signs and fence protecting the nesting sites. So, sadly of the four chicks that

hatched only one has survived. We believe that these disturbances have contributed to the loss of the three chicks. ‘Bird Buddies members are working with the National Park rangers and Byron Shire Council to give added protection in these areas by increasing beach patrols and placing additional signage. Also, National Parks announced in a press release last

week that a fox baiting program will commence in the Brunswick Heads Nature Reserve in order to give further protection to threatened shorebirds. ‘Belongil Estuary, Tallow and Marshalls Creek are the only suitable areas for Pied Oystercatchers to nest. It is important to keep dogs out of these areas as they nest in a sand scrape in the sand that is difficult to see.’

Volunteers wanted for Schoolies in the Bay Victoria Cosford

Biggest priority in the lead-up to Schoolies, according to media spokesperson and Schoolies Hub coordinator Nicqui Yazdi, is ‘to get volunteers on board’. The Hub, constituting an enormous marquee in Apex Park provided by the Council, has been organised as part of the provision of ‘a safe holiday

experience for young school leavers celebrating the end of their high school years’, said Nicqui. She told The Echo that there will be 90 shifts to man, 24 hours a day. ‘It’s an enormous challenge finding volunteers in this town’, she said, referring to the many offers which end up being withdrawn. ‘We need people to be the eyes and ears of the commu-

nity so that our businesses will be safe at night.’ Volunteers from all walks of life are being sought, their role being generally to hand out information and help keep the young people ‘safe and happy’. The period concerned is the fortnight between Saturday November 21 and Saturday December 5, and volunteers would be required to work a range of

shifts including morning, lunch, afternoons and evenings. Age is no barrier; T-shirts and information kits will be provided; and the experience could prove particularly beneficial to anyone studying tourism, youth or community services. For further information contact Nicqui on 0402 013 177 or Di Mahoney, Director BYS on 0407 664 060.

Recycle right to conserve resources, says NEWF During National Recycling Week the North East Waste Forum (NEWF) and Byron Shire Council are encouraging people to ‘Recycle Right,’ to conserve resources, reduce contamination, save water and combat climate change by reducing carbon emissions. According to NEWF, ‘Recycling is one thing that Byron Shire residents and visitors can do to help address climate change. ‘The more we recycle, the greater the environmental benefits as we are not only minimising the output of carbon dioxide, which is a major contributor to climate change, but we’re also conserving valuable resources and saving vast amounts of water and energy. ‘Last financial year more than 19,000 tonnes of household materials were recycled in the NEWF region of Byron Shire, Tweed Shire, Ballina Shire, Richmond Valley, Kyogle and Clarence Valley Council areas,’ said Education Project Coordinator with the North East Waste Forum, Karen Rudkin. ‘This saved 9,550 tonnes of CO2 being emitted to the atwww.echo.net.au

mosphere and is the equivalent of 2,290 cars being permanently removed from our roads. It also equals a water saving of more than 315,000 megalitres (126 Olympic sized swimming pools) and a total energy saving of 316,500 gigajoules or the equivalent annual electricity requirements of 1,465 homes. ‘Recycling bottles, cans, jars and paper and cardboard at home is a great start, however to “Recycle Right” we need to make sure we’re putting the right things into our home recycling bins. ‘When we put the wrong items in a household recycling bin, we contaminate the entire contents of the bin and reduce the effectiveness of the whole recycling process. For example, a single plastic bag can get caught up in processing machinery and shut down an entire material recovery facility; and just five grams of drink-ware glass or Pyrex in a recycling bin can contaminate a tonne of otherwise recyclable bottle and jar glass because it melts at a different temperature.

‘The North East Waste Forum and Byron Shire Council encourage all residents to address climate change by recycling.’ ‘Use National Recycling Week, which runs from November 9 to 15, as an opportunity to “Recycle Right” whether it’s putting the right things into your home, work and school recycling bin, donating or buying clothes and

other household goods at your local charity shop, composting your food scraps and garden waste or recycling printer cartridges or mobile phones. Electronic or e-waste can now be dropped off at the Myocum Tip for recycling.’ For more information about recycling in your area visit www.byron.nsw.gov.au or www.recyclingnearyou.com. au.

Nailing down the ombudsman role Fast Buck$

After the recent kerfuffle over the internal ombudsman for Byron Shire Council I did something which none of the Greens would be bothered doing: I personally contacted the ombudsman at Sutherland Shire Council to see what I could learn. The ombudsman there tells me that he was selected for the job by a panel which included councillors and independent professionals. Interestingly he is answerable to both the GM and the elected council, which means that neither councillors

nor staff can nobble or censor his findings before they are presented. He also has the power to go to the press without first consulting anyone. Sometimes he works with ICAC and sometimes he works as an agent for ICAC on particular matters. He can only be removed for misconduct. GM Graeme Faulkner has assured the councillors that he will ensure that the Byron ombudsman will be ‘as independent as possible’, so here is his chance to prove it by adopting the Sutherland model. Council too has the power to insist on

the kind of arrangements proposed but I wouldn’t hold my breath on the Greens having the necessary resolve or being able to admit they could have done better. I also contacted the Department of Local Government and was told that complaints of misconduct against staff or councillors cannot be dealt with by an internal ombudsman, so I’m left wondering exactly how much benefit the ratepayers will get from this expensive new position. Has a cost-benefit analysis been done? I wonder how much staff

time will actually be saved when staff will still have to respond to the ombudsman’s questions, locate documents, consult their union, be given the opportunity to comment on interim findings etc. Finally there is the question of terms of reference, which logically must be determined before the position can be advertised. Will the green councillors insist on input? Again don’t hold your breath; despite the profound significance this position might have on the Shire’s future, I fear they will just trust it to the GM.

WPP calls on community to define will of the people The Will of the People Project (WPP) is calling on all residents 18 and over in Byron Shire to answer five questions online at www.willofthepeopleproject.net. The purpose is to determine exactly how the Will of the People of Byron Shire is to be formulated, says WPP, ‘so that the community can instruct their elected officials as to their will’. See the questions in the advertisement on page 14. Dudley Leggett of the Sustainability Research Institute, which is a partner in the project along with Byron Community & Cultural Centre and Island Quarry, said, ‘As far as we know, before this time no community has ever been asked exactly what in their case constitutes the will of the people. This is important since it’s the duty of all elected representatives in government to implement the will of the people. ‘Note that this is not a statutory Citizen’s Initiated Referendum (CIR) that requires legislative approval. This is a “People’s Referendum� initiated by the people acting in their sentient sovereign capacity. We believe this will be a first.’ Founding member of WPP, Ricardo Johansson, said, ‘The world has reached a time of multiple crises, which calls into question the legitimacy andmorality of our current politi-

officials can implement our will is if we tell them what it is. It is time to assume our duty as the sovereign authority of government.’ The Will of the People Project launched in the Byron Shire in April of this year, ‘building upon a rich 30 year local history,’ says WPP, ‘starting with the Terania Creek demonstrations (read history on the WPP site).

Black spots the downside of digital television Victoria Cosford

Digital television, the advanced broadcasting technology transforming the experience of television viewing, is not without its hiccups. Enabling crystalclear pictures and sound and more programming choices than ever before, it is gradually phasing out analog television services across Australia, with the whole switchover being completed by 2013.

Coverage gaps One of the hiccups consists of so-called black spots – those areas whose reception is compromised or completely lost. Black spots are coverage gaps in the digital signal and may arise where geographical obstructions from main transmission sites exist, or where communities are very small. Rural areas, according to local specialist David Levine, ‘are considered weak-signal areas’. He told The Echo that there are quite a lot of black spots in this region. The main transmitter is at Mt. Nardi but, David said, ‘for someone living in the shadow, or within the hill range of Wilsons Creek, the chances are you can’t get [a reception] and if you do it won’t be reliable...’ Coorabell resident Patrick

www.echo.net.au

Burnett is one such person. In a letter to The Echo he described his frustration at the fact that, despite having had it ‘all working perfectly in Sydney’ before moving here six years ago then investing in a ‘brand new digital aerial with all the costs involved’, he was ultimately obliged to fork out $60 a month to Austar ‘in order to get a decent reception’. The antenna specialist he had contacted ‘found we were on the wrong side of the hill’, he told The Echo, ‘and tried to bounce it off the hill, but it worked for about twenty minutes only.’

ation, he told The Echo, is not uncommon. ‘The antenna guy should never have come out there. He should have known that Mango Lane wouldn’t work.’

Black spot funding

Attempted solutions For a solution he then wrote to the local member, who referred his letter to the Minister for the Department of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy. A lengthy reply eventually arrived, which attempted to explain the present situation for digital television users in rural areas, offering suggestions such as correct antenna and set-top boxes. ‘It is essential’, the letter read,’ that viewers have the correct antenna installed and that it is correctly aligned with the correct polarisation (vertical or horizontal depending on trans-

mission) to match the services being received. Because of the signal absorption by trees surrounding houses, some householders may also need to install a high-gain antenna, low loss cable and a mast-head amplifier to boost the received signal to a satisfactory level.’ Patrick’s interpretation of the missive was that it was basically acknowledging the prob-

lem for people in this area and admitting that it would eventually be addressed. In fact at one point the letter said, ‘There are a number of significant issues that need to be resolved to complete the transition to digital television throughout Australia by the end of 3013.’ Richard Hillard, a long-term antenna installer, owns Byron Antenna Service. Patrick’s situ-

<echowebsection=Local News>

In his experience it is not only Coorabell residents facing the eastern side only; ‘people who live in valleys and a lot of areas back of Mullumbimby’ are similarly disadvantaged. He spoke about government ‘black spot’ funding for Repeater Stations (or self-help retransmission sites) that have been established in certain areas such as Paterson Street in Byron Bay, as well as provision of satellite dishes, as current solutions to the problem – but added that ‘the government’s attitude seems to be that they are providing us with free TV and digital is an extra bonus; their obligation is to provide television and that’s what they’re doing.’ He described the situation as similar to mobile phone coverage in rural areas and to those homes that ‘don’t get a postal service to their door... In my opinion it’s a rural area... and [many people] bring their sense of entitlement with them from the city.’ Senior Communications

Adviser for the Department of Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy John Noble told The Echo that ‘the issue... is very common with digital TV reception around the country unfortunately. The situation in the Byron Bay/ North Coast area of NSW isn’t necessarily likely to improve when full switchover to digital TV happens in four years ‘time either.

Satellite trial ‘Given the terrain of the area, interference with the local digital TV signal is going to happen, although if people are experiencing this as a regular problem, they should check their own digital equipment for possible faults or have an antenna installer come and have a look at their external antenna.’ He mentioned a federal government trial of a satellite scheme in Mildura (the first region to fully switch to digital TV by the middle of next year) as a possible means of overcoming transmission and reception problems associated with digital TV, adding that ‘based on the success of this trial, it then may be adopted across Australia – although this is still very much yet to be worked through.’

Patrolling the borders of hysteria Volume 24 #22

November 3, 2009

Council’s coastal plan At 345 pages Byron Shire Council’s Draft Byron Shire Coastal Zone Management Plan looks like a formidable document to read but it is fairly easy going. If you’re not that avid a reader of council documents you could just download the executive summary and see what ‘management actions’ are planned for your neighbourhood. You have until December 22 to lodge a submission with Council. Aside from the table of management actions, much of the document is a retelling of history and a justification of the coastal planning process to date. A brief history of coastal planning over the last 20 years would go like this – 1988, Council introduced a development control plan which requires dwellings within areas under threat to be relocatable, the beginning of the so-called ‘planned retreat’ policy; in 1990 the NSW government released a coastline management manual which formed the basis of planning since then; in 1997 formed a Coastline Management Committee to assist in developing a Coastal Zone Management Plan (CZMP), a process which has been long, arduous and fraught with arguments. Over the following years a number of studies arose to support the process and they are listed in the DCZMP. The table of management actions is long and shows there is still much work to be done, from vegetation management to on-the-ground surveys to more consultation with stakeholders. Whether Council itself has the resources or time to carry out these actions is doubtful. Belongil Spit has copped almost all the media attention in relation to coastal erosion, but the DCZMP also applies to estuaries, creeks and the Brunswick River. This could be a good wake-up call for Mullumbimby, which is not beyond tidal influences. In many cases emergency action plans within the DCZMP rely on dwellings being ‘relocatable’. How that will turn out in an actual emergency is anybody’s guess, given sudden storm impact and the suspect ‘relocatability’ of some houses. How much of Council’s work will be incorporated into new state and federal legislation is uncertain. Along with the NSW government’s announcement of ‘hot spot’ laws in the making, the federal standing committee on climate change has released its report into coastal threats, downloadable at www.aph.gov.au/ House/committee/ccwea. There is also an online video interview with Dobell MP Craig Thompson and others which makes it clear that Byron Shire is not alone in its obsession. The federal report notes the finding of the Department of Climate Change that ‘80% of the Australian population lives in the coastal zone, and approximately 711,000 addresses are within 3km of the coast and less than 6m above sea level’. And while Council has incorporated sea-level rises of 18cm-91cm by the end of this century into its planning, the report emphasises that figures of that magnitude may now underestimate the severity of change. For the curious and the argumentative the next round of the process is a ‘facilitated panel discussion’ on the DCZMP on Friday from 4pm at Council Chambers in Mullumbimby. Let’s hope there is more light than heat. – Michael McDonald, editor

order protection’ – the very phrase is ominous. It evokes a country under siege, its frontiers threatened by the rampaging armies of Attila the Hun, the Mongol hordes of Genghis Khan and the invincible horror of Martian androids. No wonder our politicians feel that they have to be tough about it. The fact that the Australian mainland has never been invaded and is never likely to be is hardly relevant; for well over a century the nation’s defences, and more importantly its politics, have revolved around the idea that an envious world can’t wait to get its claws on our golden soil and the only thing that’s stopping it is our remorseless vigilance. Fort Denison in Sydney Harbour and Fort Nepean in Port Phillip Bay are historical testimony to this long-established paranoia. In those days the threat was seen to come from Russia; over the years it migrated to Germany, Japan, Indonesia, Vietnam, and China, which became a catch-all reservoir of the Yellow Peril, seeping remorselessly southwards, aided by the irresistible pull of gravity. Of course, it never happened; it was never going to. Even if the countries to our north had entertained the notion, simple logistics would have relegated the idea of conquering and occupying a continental landmass to the realm of fantasy. The only way it could ever work was the way that it did; a determined program of colonisation spanning several generations of overwhelming technological superiority. And perhaps, just perhaps, it is a residual sense of guilt that makes white Australians fear that what they did to the Aboriginal nations might someday be revisited on them.

Certainly there is absolutely no rational explanation for the hysterical overreaction of politicians, media and yes, the public at large, every time an unauthorised vessel makes its way into what we have designated as Australian waters.

Of course it was all bullshit and indeed was proved to be so when the vast majority of those involved were later quietly admitted to Australia as genuine refugees and integrated seamlessly into the multicultural society, just as so many of their predecessors did. You would think – hope – that the lesson had been learned. But it appears that some prejudices are just too deeply engrained for our leaders to ignore. We now have Kevin Rudd, from whom we expected better, playing hard ball with the latest wave of boat people from Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka or wherever.

whom successive governments have studiously ignored. Confusingly, Rudd also claims that his policies are humane, and it has to be said that they are a lot less brutal than John Howard’s absurdly named ‘Pacific Solution’. The hell holes of Nauru and Manus Island have been closed, the pointless mental torture of Temporary Protection Visas abolished, the processing of applicants streamlined and the emphasis switched from detention camps to accommodation within communities. But the biggest change has been in the rhetoric. Rudd may be mistaken in describing the asylum seekers as illegal immigrants, but during the Howard years they moved from being queue jumpers to disease carriers, drug runners, terrorists and child murderers. Last week when Wilson Tuckey attempted a re-run of the terrorist line his own leader, Malcolm Turnbull, joined Rudd in jumping on him from a great height.

Rudd reserves his own invective for the people smugglers, the worst people in the world, the scum of the earth who should rot in Hell forever. This may be silly hyperbole, but at least it’s a step up from blaming the victims. No-one will say of Rudd in 2010, as they did of Howard in 2001, that they’re going to vote for him because he knows how to deal with the towel-heads. But if Rudd has toned down the denigration, he hasn’t got rid of the hype. After 78 Tamil asylum seekers were rescued in Indonesian waters and delivered by the Oceanic Viking to an Indonesian port, they declined to disembark and the Indonesians refused to make them do so, thus producing an embarrassing stalemate. But that’s all it is: it is not a national security emergency or a catastrophic breakdown of border protection. It is not even a political crisis; it is a management problem that can and will be resolved without war and bloodshed. Yet a breathless media, claiming to reflect public opinion, insist that it is a shambles, a disaster with consequences for Australia’s long term immigration program. This reflects the claim by some commentators that Australians will accept a high rate of immigration if and only if they are assured of tight border protection. As far as I know there is absolutely no evidence for this assertion, and since we have never had tight border control (and certainly not since the advent of air travel) it seems inherently unlikely, or at least illogical. But who said Australians were logical about borders, immigrants, asylum seekers or boat people anyway? Maybe that’s the problem of being girt by sea.

tough with those he describes as illegal immigrants. In fact, the boat people are not illegal: they are asylum seekers with rights accepted under international covenants to which Australia is a signatory. And the whole point of Rudd’s policy is to prevent them from becoming immigrants – for the time being at least. The real illegal immigrants are the visa-overstayers

The unfolding magic of Woolies Noting the two expensive full page near-blank advertisements in local newspapers this week bemoaning the move of Woolworths into magical Mullumbimby, I must speak out as an old soldier.... when the battle has obviously been lost, try and avoid a costly rearguard action – extract your troops that they may fight again on a different front.

Mullumbimby ■I wish to correct an idea in a letter in The Echo of October 20 (and thanks, Michele, for my early epitaph). The thing stopping Woolies’ corporate invasion is not the inadequate onsite sewage management (OSM) design. It is greed. WWs want a full size supermarket on a tiny block of land. They don’t accept that OSM needs physical space. There is none! In addition, the space they need is way bigger than for a normal rural OSM design – because they want it on a flat, boggy floodplain.

Day of the Dead event in Heritage Park, on the river bend under the magnificent large fig trees, the site of many funerals. As a part of a constant effort to create a positive cultural shift around death and bereavement, the afternoon starts with an opportunity to create a memento or message for a loved one, followed by a non denominational Ceremony of Remembrance. It has always been part of our plan that as the DOTD become an accepted and beneficial community event, that we would encourage everyone to also bring food and to stay on to picnic together to celebrate life and death. This year, feeling it was time, we intended to suggest this, hoping that it could happen next year, but now, seiz-

Worse still, it’s in town and the development invites the public over to interact with the irrigation area. I suspect that when the WWs bureaucrats bought from Mallams the supermarket developers they didn’t read the fine print about OSM. Since then they have been covering their tracks from shareholder scrutiny by attacking Byron Council (with State Planning’s help, thanks for that). Some wooly heads (in Brisbane I suspect) should roll, I reckon. Some of us will be in Sydney on November 18-20 to witness the rest of the Land & Environment Court case that Woolies has brought against Council.

as the thing that protects her from publicly criticising the staff (which by the way is rubbish) while Tom cites the distinction between policy matters and operational matters as the problem – also rubbish. I am well aware that the elected Council is responsible for setting policy and that it is the staff who do the operational stuff of enacting that policy. But where does Tom get the idea that the distinction is clear cut? From a member of staff perhaps? Ross Tucker? God help us. I remind Tom of a resolution in ’05 where Council instructed the staff as to what to do and what not to do in relation to holiday letting. The ’05 resolution reads: ‘Council take no further compliance action against landowners and agents who “holiday let� until Council formally resolves its planning position on holiday letting.’ Is this not a clear case of

Without a clue The good thing about Councillor Tom Tabart’s letter last week was that he made it clear that he, and presumably other Green councillors, distrust the permanent staff and regard them as a serious ongoing problem. The bad thing is that Tom makes it clear that the Greens haven’t a clue what to do about it. Jan Barham hides behind the Code of Conduct

Resolution needed from Jai’s death input in areas of children’s education and needs. Public debate about youth facilities in our areas or lack of. Is it time we all pulled together to instigate change in a positive direction? I so cherish the memory of Jai for choosing such a positive, happy path in his all-too-brief time on the planet. His beautiful character inspires me not to slip into darkness and negative thought. He would not want that of anyone. I thank everyone who has responded so far with support and information and encourage more. Your responses are completely in confidence. The contact again is stephendrummond44@hotmail.com or 0415 804 962. The views I express are completely my own and this letter is a personal letter to the community and cannot be used or taken out of context for legal purposes.

Further to my article about Jai three weeks ago, the question is: what possible outcome I wish to achieve? The truth of course, what happened at recess that day. Secondly, resolution. My concern has been the welfare of many children affected by Jai’s death. One of the key issues to address is ‘respect’. Respect for each other’s space, the surroundings and of course respect for yourself. To show respect is to have consideration,which in turn can avoid conflict. I have had to think very deeply to find compassion and understanding within myself to stay rational and not lose faith in human nature. My personal belief is that with the admission of guilt and genuine remorse, compassion filters through. We must learn from and acknowledge our mistakes. However at this moment there are unresolved issues in the aftermath of Jai’s death.

Firstly, let’s not forget my son died during a school fight. Were there older students directly involved in the fight? Were they suspended? Should suspensions have happened and be ongoing while the investigation is in progress? Does concern need to be raised as to the message sent to students and possible unrest due to this inaction? Do students who have information feel intimidated or scared about coming forward? If any threatening behaviour is happening it must be reported to the parents, the school and the police. Reports suggest mobile phone footage existed, is it still out there? You will not get in trouble if anybody comes forward with this or any information. It must be pointed out that if a crime has been witnessed,it is an offence not to report it. Other questions to consider: if teachers were on duty at recess how did they respond to

the fight and when? Was appropriate supervision in place at the time? My son died over a ‘school table’, apparently an ongoing feud. Are there enough? Has the school addressed the problem? What changes will the school implement to ensure this type of tragedy never happens again? Has this whole incident been handled in the appropriate and civilised manner with children involved, especially with such trauma attached to Jai’s death? Have there been any other incidents within the school that need to be addressed? Children should have a safe and productive learning environment in which to grow. As a community issue what can we do? Write to the school and education department about issues that concern you. Public forums through various outlets, including The Echo. Maybe more public meetings at schools to discuss ideas and

Now the GM, knowing how clueless the Greens are, might well refuse to put such notions on the agenda, claiming they represent ‘intrusion into operational matters’. The Greens would in such case simply throw their hands in the air and give up. If it was me I would get clear written legal advice, I would go to the media, I would complain to the Department of Local Government and the Local Government Association. If none of these worked I would still get the matter up for debate by moving an urgency motion during the next Council; with a Green majority this would be relatively easy. None of the present crop of Greens would have the guts or imagination to contemplate any of this, and Jan Barham wouldn’t give a shit anyway because she’s already half-way

Council ‘interference’ in operational matters, Tom? Yet no one complained and the resolution was binding, right? Now I know that Jan Barham is angry that compliance staff have been hassling hippies in the hills and that she learned of police on one occasion accompanying them on such a visit via the media. What did she do about it? Nothing, zero, zilch. If I’d been on Council I would have immediately moved the following: ‘That as a matter of policy the involvement of police in compliance matters must have the prior consent of the Council.’ Another notion I would long ago have put up is this: ‘That as a matter of policy, compliance staff will issue no threats of demolition or removal, or orders to that effect, without the prior approval of Council.’

Bangalow trees The Bangalow Primary School is planning to cut down a large number of mature trees in order to build an assembly hall. Thirty six trees have been marked for either removal or lopping on the western lane and showground boundaries. The removal of these trees is a continuation of the degradation of the visual amenity and the fauna habitat of the Bangalow village by the school which has removed many mature trees in the past two years. The trees that will be affected by the latest plan are marked with either white or yellow paint and can easily be viewed by walking along the boundary lane from the Chinese restaurant. Only two

Public transport in a Laws-free lane There are questions about whether people would use trains, because they haven’t in the past. There has never been a commuter service here, only one train/day. I bought in Bangalow because of the railway station. Soon after, it was closed down. Later the Greiner government (on advice from American accountants who deemed the service too costly) rearranged the schedule so it was impossible for locals to use. Who needs to go south at 10.30 at night, and return early the next morning? Before that, I knew people in Lismore who regularly caught the 8am train (coming from Sydney) to go to the beach, and return on the afternoon southbound train. At least it was use-

able; and teenagers have a right to move around too. Any service needs a decent number of trains each day, especially weekends. If I could get back in three or four hours, I would catch a train to Byron Bay or Mullum. It’s boring to drive everywhere. Goodness, I might actually find people to talk to! In Queensland passengers are flocking to their new service. While Rhys Daniell’s idea sounds good (Letters, October 27), a bus is not a train. It sways and jerks a lot, and passengers cannot walk along it while in motion. Moreover the buses around here used to play John Laws and Alan Jones which is excruciatingly horrible. Please no

The Victoria (Canada) Transport Policy Institute has more in this vein www.vpti.org. Yes, Cr Silver was off the mark with his figure of $200 million. Even the NSW government’s overblown estimate for heavy rail was only $150m. For comparison, the PWC report said $30m for light-rail, which we fully accept as too being too low, and that $60m is closer to the mark. By contrast the 11.5km Ballina bypass was $634 million last time I looked.

households in Bangalow were apprised of this plan by the consultants engaged for the task, however all residents and visitors will feel the loss of these trees. As Department of Education premises are exempt from local government planning regulations including tree preservation orders, the only avenue available for Bangalow citizens objecting to this action is to write to the principal stating their concerns. The proposed buildings could be more carefully sited

and many mature native trees such as flame trees, quandongs, casuarinas etc could be preserved. As no timetable has been announced, but past experience has proven that the school takes this sort of action without community consultation, prompt response is required .

(with the exception of Cr Tabart) agreed to adopt a revised organisation structure for Council’s administration, proposed by the general manager Graeme Faulkner. At the Ordinary Meeting of October 22, attempting to make a submission to Councillors on the issue, I was condemned to silence by a ruling, only very recently enforced, limiting public access to a strict timetable. Our mayor seemed uncomfortable with her role when she applied the ruling (she is a rather fairminded person, as you know)

community expect the right to know about the squandering of their rate dollars and the prospect of even less services than we have to endure already? ‘More pies in the skies and less hands on deck’ is what I call this report to Council. In a recently published open letter to Byron Shire Councillors I remarked that this administration is not exactly winning gold medals in the community relations stakes. This proves my point, once again. What a blatant disregard

The organisation review includes a proposal to add four positions to the executive team. As I understand it, staff numbers are to be reduced by natural attrition and redundancies to pay for the extra salaries.

of the reasonable expectations of this Shire’s ratepayers who, may I just make this point, pay the bloated salaries of this administration. I only had access to the minutes and read some snippets in the press, but by all accounts that fateful meeting on October 8 can only be described as a shameful scenario, a shameful caving in by Councillors, and a shameful exercise in blindly approving more power at the top, less control for Councillors, and certainly less services. Good management or empire building or bureaucracy gone mad? I just wonder what Councillors were thinking when they gave the thumbs-up to this preposterous recommendation. Thank you, Councillors, for nothing. And thank you, Councillor Tabart, for not caving in.

Meanwhile, back at the beachfront…

■ The editorial in last weekend’s Sydney Morning Herald (October 24-25) compares the Belongil waterfront owners with the coal industry. Steve Tyson’s letter in last week’s Echo compares the plight of the Belongil waterfront owners with the victims of bush fires, asking ‘How come emergency services are out there, right now, trying to save people’s homes?’ Well, here something even whackier! The NSW government, in justifying its turnaround on coastal erosion, has told us not to worry about that. Why don’t we just trust them? They ease our concerns with the following: if sea walls and other structures cause beach erosion to adjoining beaches, these landowners who built the sea Peter Wegner walls or other structures, will Suffolk Park have to pay. They will have to pay for what? Once the beach is gone, it is gone.

Byron Bay ■ They’re a confused lot down at Belongil, aren’t they? No wonder they can’t come up with any sort of constructive proposal. Steve Tyson seems smugly satisfied that the NSW government will let them build rock walls, but environment minister John Robertson says, ‘I will say it one more time: where it is environmentally feasible and sustainable to do so, those works will be allowed to be carried out’ (Echo, October 27). There go the rock walls. Meanwhile, Keine Nombre is even more confused about the role of sandmining. One of the photos accompanying his letter was a recent view of Belongil beach looking from Kendall Street back toward the swimming pool. Keine says that ‘the heavy black stuff at the bottom’ is the heavy minerals for which the beach was mined. No, it isn’t. The stuff under the sand dune in the photo is indurated sand, also known as coffee rock, which is beach sand that has been loosely cemented

by organic matter when it has been under a lagoon or swamp in the distant past. It probably extends back to Ewingsdale, and has nothing to do with the dune, it is simply the underlying ground on which the dune has built up. It is more resistant to erosion than loose sand, and helps reduce the effect of one-off erosion events, but it does erode quite quickly if exposed to the waves for any length of time. The only way to ‘duplicate the ancient dune’, short of shipping in huge amounts of sand, is to remove all development from the existing dune and allow it to do what it does naturally, which is to erode and provide sand to the beach during storms and build up again afterwards. Anything that stops the dune being eroded during storms, whether rock walls, sandbags, hay bales or teddy bears, will worsen erosion of the beach and the dune immediately down-drift. The idea that you can stop the dunes being eroded without worsening erosion elsewhere is nonsense. As is the idea that I would want a whingeing ‘better off than average’ person living in my backyard, even if there was room. Matthew Lambourne

On Saturday November 7, women will be coming together to share their stories about birth. Every woman who has been pregnant has a story of how she faced her birth, of how it changed her and what wisdom she then carried to the next chapter of her life. The Red Tent Birthing Festival brings women together to share these very ordinary stories of extraordinary courage, humour and love. One of the featured speakers is Martha Regnault, a Qi Gong practitioner based in Rosebank. Martha is mother to Lily, 12, Felix, 7, and Lucy Rose who would have been 10. Every person has their defining moment. The point in life that made them. For Martha it was the birth of her stillborn baby girl, the child who she claims to be one of her greatest teachers. Martha was a reluctant mother. Living in the UK well ensconced in her career, having kids wasn’t in her frame. Martha Regnault. Photo Emma Hamblin.

Real turnaround ‘I hadn’t thought about having children at all. My partner of eight years asked me to marry him and I thought if we are going to get married I may as well have kids! I had Lily and was so surprised how wonderful it was. It was a real turnaround, I was one of six, so my mother didn’t really promote motherhood.’ It wasn’t long before Martha’s family started to expand further. ‘When Lily was 11 months old she stopped breastfeeding in the night and I was pregnant that day. We were having such a lot of fun with Lily, so we thought, fine, we’ll go there and I had another terrific pregnancy. I knew they were both girls and going to be 20 months apart. I was under 40 so I was pretty pleased with myself.’ Life has a way of directing its own story, and at the beginning of Martha’s labour, things weren’t as she’d expected. ‘Lily had been ten days late so I wasn’t worried. When I had my checkup the week before I said I could feel that she would be coming that weekend. When my waters broke I went to the hospital (Randwick Birth Centre) and they checked the baby and couldn’t find a heartbeat. She got another machine. Some people really worry about it happening to them but I had never worried. I think the statistics are that one in 100 babies die in utero, at Randwick they lose about two a week. ‘I looked at my husband Patrick when there was no heartbeat and watched the midwife walk away. I knew there was something wrong. www.echo.net.au

It was hugely emotional. You just hit your wall. A part of you doesn’t believe that you have to go through it and our culture these days is a bit about avoiding the hard stuff.’

of closure.’ Martha is one of the women sharing her birth stories, and remarkably she shares the loss of her middle child with complete positivity, aware that she is also honouring the stories of the many women who lost their babies and didn’t get the chance to grieve. ‘Lucy Rose taught me more without even opening her eyes than my other children will teach me in a lifetime. I was kind of open to that. ‘She was the doorway to become much less emotionally encumbered. When you go through that kind of grief a lot of things fall away. A lot of fear falls away. Now it doesn’t matter what I hear, what story or terrible suffering, I can sit with it, and that is the true gift – grief isn’t scary any more if you have gone through it.’ The Red Tent Festival presents women’s birth stories in a women-only environment (babies welcome but no children please) alongside an extraordinary program of therapy and information. Federal Hall Saturday. Festival tickets, day and afternoon passes are available at Nature’s Child, Mullumbimby Herbals and Fundamental Foods Lismore.

‘I don’t think I found anyone who I didn’t feel connected with my experience. Everyone who’s had grief will tell you that people want you to get over it a little earlier than you do.’ In the early stages of labour Martha discovered her baby girl had died. She then had to face a deeply emotional birth where she already knew the end of the story. Nothing she was going to do at this point could change the outcome. ‘I think you just go into shock and you suspend and you just let your body do what you have to do. Mercifully she was born an hour and a half later.’ The death of a child can have devastating impact on relationships within a family, particularly to a marriage. For Martha, she and her husband credit the birth of her daughter as strengthening their connection.

Physical grief ‘When Patrick went home my Mum said to him, this would wreck a lot of relationships but this will make you and Martha stronger. It’s a very physical grief, you are programmed to hold and feed. We had different expressions but we both knew and I think what really helped us was that we had done a lot of Qi Gong practice, and we had some reference points and I said to my husband when she was born you know we are mourning an

support of her daughter Lily, her husband, her family and the love of her community of friends in getting her through.

In shock ‘We had the philosophical framework, but you know it was incredibly hard. I spent months in shock. A lot of my friends were having their second children, but I didn’t feel angry, I felt fine. That was their experience, I could sit with that. ‘I don’t think I found anyone who I didn’t feel connected with my experience. Everyone who’s had grief will tell you that people want you to get over it a little earlier than you do. But it takes time. The pediatrician says you should wait 18 months before you have another child, otherwise the next one will be born in the shadow of grief.’ Martha fell pregnant and just over two years after Lucy Rose’s birth, Felix was born. ‘I found Felix’s labour harder. I said to Patrick that I didn’t feel I could go full circle until I had another baby. After saying that it took an hour to get pregnant! He was born on my birthday. I looked at him and at Patrick and said, our family is complete. I had such a sense <echowebsection=Articles>

End of an era at Goonengerry

CWA helps out Leanne

Stephen Sheaffe

The pioneering connection to Goonengerry is finally severed with the deaths of Bill and Howard Sheaffe. William Ashmore Sheaffe senior first settled in Goonengerry in 1896 and with the recent deaths of sons, Howard on May 23 at age 88, and Bill on October 23 at age 90, the Sheaffe link with this small community has finally ended. The two boys were the second and third sons of William and Cecil (nee Whittall) born on the family farm in 1919 and 1921 respectively. The 640 acre dairy farm was located in the beautiful, rich and undulating Goonengerry hills on Sheaffes Road and extending to the land where most of the village and school are located. In 1896 the Education Department accepted William’s advice and built the first school on his property. Bill was given his father’s name. Younger brother Howard Edward Percy was born on ANZAC Day and this birth date gave his parents reason to name him after his mother’s three brothers who served overseas in WWI. Howard and Edward Whittall fought in the mud- and bomb-saturated trenches on the Western Front and Percy, like many others, made the ultimate sacrifice during the Lone Pine campaign on the Gallipoli Peninsula in August 1915. A memorial dedicated to Percy stands in the Mullumbimby cemetery. The boys grew up on the farm and each day walked across the hills to the local school. As was customary at the time, they both left school at age 13 but Howard stayed a year longer to help teach the youngest school children. As teenagers they both worked on the dairy farm. Even though they were brothers, they had different personalities but like their parents they regarded community involvement a compulsory obligation. It was strong, enduring and even a binding quality they carried to the end: community was overwhelmingly important. The war changed everything. Bill enlisted and served with distinction in Palestine and New Guinea. Howard applied but was not accepted, as he was required to maintain the dairy farm, an essential service during the crisis. While Bill was

of the family but his interests were also academic. He was a vociferous reader and wrote poetry that was published in the local newspaper. At the end of the war Bill returned home, and by the early 1950s, the farm was divided into thirds and the two brothers had married, began their own families and operated separate dairy farms on the property. Their community involvement was unprecedented. Howard was president of the Goonengerry P&C for almost 20 years, Bill was treasurer for an extraordinary 50 years and was made a life member in 1995. They were both members of the junior farmers club. They were both wardens and parish councillors at St Phillips and St James Anglican Church. Bill was the Sunday school teacher, Howard was the appointed minister’s warden for a time that seemed forever. Howard represented the Bangalow Diocese at the Grafton Synod and wrote a short history on all the Christian religions in the Goonengerry area. In 1958 a memorial was secured to the newly erected front gates at the church commemorating the family’s contribution to the Goonengerry church community. Unfortunately, the church is now a home and the plaque has been removed. Bill joined the Masonic Lodge at Bangalow in 1949 and gave 50 years’ service, was a member of the Bush Fire Committee as treasurer and deputy captain and by reason of his lengthy service was presented

and in recognition of his community service was appointed the 1992 Byron Shire Citizen of the Year. Howard was a long time committee member of the Mullumbimby Show Society, a member of the Banana Growers Committee and the Progress Association. From the 1950s to the 1970s he was the public spokesman for the school and the church and in 1975 when the then Deputy Prime Minister Doug Anthony attended the school’s 75th anniversary, as the guest of honour Howard was the spokesperson who represented the community. However, Howard’s consuming interest was flowers, gardening and judging. He was a regular judge at the Mullumbimby Show, and almost every flower show in the Brunswick and Richmond valleys. He began flower judging when only a teenager and continued until he was almost an octogenarian, was a member of the local rose club, the flower society and had one of the largest collections of gardening magazines known. He judged flowers from Grafton to the Tweed and beyond. What a contribution. They both considered community involvement an essential responsibility in life and were extremely generous with their time. Unfortunately, with the demands and pressures of modern life, very few people have the community commitment that these fine and distinguished gentlemen had. It is an end of an era.

Community Focus Group meets on draft LEP and DCP Byron Shire Council has established a Community Focus Group to assist with the design of a community consultation program for the public exhibition of the upcoming draft Shire-wide Local Environmental Plan (LEP) and Development Control Plan (DCP). The group consists of representatives from 12 community groups across Byron Shire. Council’s director of planning Ray Darney said the Community Focus Group’s purpose is to prepare a draft consultation strategy for the exhibition of the draft LEP and DCP which informs the community about the details of the draft LEP and DCP, arranges for dialogue with the community about these documents and records responses and feedback from the community about the documents and, where appropriate, incorporates feedback for the redrafting of the LEP and DCP. The Community Focus

Group will be working with a facilitator once a week for six weeks to prepare the draft community consultation strategy. The group hopes the strategy will provide the community with maximum opportunities to have their say about the important draft planning documents. The chosen members represent a range of community interest groups throughout Byron Shire and include representatives from BEACON, Brunswick Heads Chamber of Commerce, Bundjalung of Byron Bay Aboriginal Corporation (Arakwal), Byron United, Conservation of North Ocean Shores, Federal Community Centre, Goonengerry Landcare Group, Main Arm Residents Association, Mullumbimby Community Action Network, Ocean Shores Community Association, Rural Landsharing Communities Association, and Tourism Byron Bay.

Sounds Like Thunder Sal Kimber has been called one of Australia’s best emerging songwriters. In defiance of the idea that it has all been done before ‘Sal Kimber & The Rollin’ Wheel’ offer a take on Australian Alt Country ‘n’ Blues, that is authentic and exciting. Sounding rural and rootsy, but with urban savvy, their live shows take you on a ride over terrains from cut-back duets on the xylophone and banjo to five-piece rock n roll/ alt country tracks. On old time inspired banjo, electric and acoustic guitar and vocals Sal Kimber is joined on stage by her band – The Rollin’ Wheel. The spunky lineup consists of Beth (Buffy) Kimber on keys, piano accordion and xylophone, Trent (Macca) McKenzie on electric and double bass, Cat Leahy on drums and Jacob Cole on lead guitar and slide. Charismatic

I remember when you used to go to the Post Office to send a letter. You’d line up and buy a stamp, give it one long sticky lick and then pop it in the box. As a kid I loved the wonder of placing an envelope through a neat slot. It seemed almost inconceviable that this simple act had launched my correspondence on a journey. That important hands would take my envelope and sort it into a pile and then it would go in a truck, or on a plane, then on a bike then into another box. All this just to say ‘Happy Christmas’ to my Nanna. Or ask Santa for a bike, or apologise to an aunt for taking so long to send a thank you letter for the and engaging, Sal and her band regale both urban and rural audiences with their tales of ghost towns, rebels and romance. Together they have clocked up a swag of festivals, supported artists such as Mick Thomas and The Sure Thing, sold out shows at their local Northcote Social Club in Melbourne, and made guest appearances on ABC TV’s Sunday Arts and Channel 10’s State Focus. Hailing from the mountain valleys of Victoria’s North East, Sal Kimber grew up in a musical family. With a father who was a songwriter and sisters who were musicians, Sal began writing songs at a young age, a family pastime that quickly became a passion. Her lyrical and musical compositions have been recognised and rewarded over the last few years, with Sal receiving the Young Artist’s Award at Port Fairy Folk Festival, the Wangaratta Jazz Festival’s Acoustic Jazz Award and APRA’s Darebin Songwriting Award, Sal was selected to take part in the Woodford Emerging Artist Program. Sal produced a selftitled EP in 2005 and released her debut album Sounds

GOING POSTAL new undies she’d sent for my birthday. Mail was once such a physical act. Now it’s a click on an icon and my virtual letter has left my virtual box. I’d be lying if I told you there wasn’t a small thrill at a full inbox, but it’s nothing compared to the promise of a fat envelope with my name inked on the front. Unless of course it’s from the Tax Department. With internet

banking and email, there’s not much left for the post office to do than to crank up a bit of merchandise. Not that long ago stamps were the main thing that post offices sold. The post office where I lived smelt of ink and old men. You couldn’t buy Thomas the Tank Engine lunch boxes or staplers or cook books or torches or printers. Now when I line up for a stamp I have to stand behind aisles of stuffed bears and puzzles and electric rubbers. Today when I was lining up for my stamp I was amazed to find a vibrating massage device. I can’t help myself. I fought off my kids and gave myself a good bit of back stimulation. There’s

Free Gig at the Court House Hotel This Thursday’s Open Mic at the Court House is full of surprises when visiting comics from Brisbane pull in

to have a go on the open mic. A few months ago Mandy Nolan and Robert Grayson ran a comedy workshop in Brisbane for emerging comics to hone their material. Some of the graduating comics will be making their way to Mullumbimby for a moment in the spotlight. MC’d by Mandy Nolan who reckons ‘standup comedy is such a great way of expressing who you are and how you feel about the world. It’s about struggle, survival and everything in between.’ Find out how half the shire reframes their shitty lives on Thursday at 8pm. Hey it’s free so don’t miss out!

something a bit pornographic about groaning in pleasure at the post office from the ecstacy of lower back relief. I suppose I shouldn’t really put the device on my bum and then put it back on the counter, but hang it, it’s Mullumbimby. Where else could you buy a vibrator for $14.95? Great to see sexual pleasure is going to be accessible to those on a budget. Everyone knows that no-one really buys a vibrating massage device for shoulder relief. So the post office is now moving into sex toys. It’s genius. Perhaps they could even develop their own line of Australia Post butt plugs or A4 ring binder nipple rings.

I’m looking forward to the stapler that doubles as a dildo. I once had a dream that I was naked covered in bulldog clips. You haven’t lived until you’ve waxed your private parts with a post-it note. So we’ve found a way for the post office to stay solvent so that it can move the three or four stamps it sells each day, but what about the postie? How do we keep him on his bike in this era of electric mail? Perhaps he needs to expand his merchandise as well. He could offer foot rubs, do the dishes or put the washing out. I’d be happy if he just gave me the odd compliment like ‘nice box’.

The Grains The Grains are coming to town. A group of surfers/ musicians from a small beach town on the East Coast, The Grains have created a unique sound that has evolved from their wide range of musical influences and life on the beach. The band started out when front man Dallas James started performing solo. After a few gigs supporting a number of well known artists such as Phil Jameson (Grin Spoon), it wasn’t long before lead guitarist Tom Flint came on board and the pair started writing and performing original music. The group began to take off when they were joined on stage by Chris O’neill (drums), Christian Barker (bass) and Josh Mackenzie (organ/guitar). Since then the boys have been in the studio recording and performing up and down the East Coast playing alongside

The Ukitopia festival, in its second year, is a two day event where the whole community has an opportunity to celebrate its year. ‘Last year it was a one day event and the village was absolutely filled to capacity. This year we have extended the festival over two days and with the Uki Public School and the Uki Kids Club, OOSH involved there will be more space, more parking and more children’s and youth activities.’ The festival begins on the Saturday afternoon with live music on the main stage from 3pm and creative community space making including a wishing wall, lantern and flag making.

creative and ecstatic dance and contact improvisation. In our culture dance isn’t generally considered the realm of men. But Ares, God of War, was a wild dancer, especially before battle. Ecstatic dance isn’t about waging war but it is about harnessing those wild energies and transmuting them into a powerful and creative response to life and supporting us to become warriors for the things that have meaning for us. Soul in Motion is a creative dance practice for emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing. In a state of presence to this moment, this breath, this impulse, we are invited to expand into wholeness through movement and dance. We become more integrated, more present, more available to ourselves and to others. In dance we celebrate our life journey and reclaim and embody the split-off parts of ourself. This may be our joy, passion and spontaneity. But it may also be deep sadness, anger and fear at what is happening for us personally and globally as members of the earth family. By being present to what is in our internal world through movement we integrate and expand our sense of self and reclaim our power to act.’

was circa 1983. It was about 5am and I was lying under a duvet in the Hotel du Lys after a forty-hour flight to midwinter Paris. Waiting for the cocktail of cognac and pills that I’d purchased at an Orly Airport pharmacy to kick in, I flicked on the tele and saw Jackson doing Billie Jean. As I floated into that dreamy ante-room that opens up to the Land of Nod, I was a mite confused and wondered if the poor boy might soon find himself tumbling off the Tallahachee Bridge. The song, which struck me as pretty cool, has since become seared on my memory drive as one of those that immediately take me back to where I was when I heard it first. Prior to that, I felt vaguely fond of Jackson as the little brother who had written a ballad for his pet rat, Ben, a sweet number that, sadly, is not included here. After all these years, the Moonwalker is still unrepresented in my music collection for, in truth, I have never really understood what all the fuss was about (ditto for that interminable bore, Leonard Cohen), but after seeing this doco I don’t mind confessing that I would have been happy to fork out the readies for what would have been a dazzling show. Broadly speaking, this is a collection of greatest hits – and there are some absolute crackers – with fab dancing, a kick-arse band and spectacular sets, all creating the sense that you are witnessing a unique performer in his natural element. It does come across as just a wee bit on the nose that Jackson

would soulfully lament the damage being done to the planet by Man while he, such an ostentatious consumer, is in the process of mounting an extravaganza that would have left a carbon footprint roughly equivalent to that created by the combined GDPs of a dozen West African nations. But let’s

not be churlish – mega celebs need their stretch limos to offset their awesome humility. Hunter S Thompson once referred to Muhammad Ali as ‘the brown Jay Gatsby’. Jackson might easily have inherited the title – except he wasn’t brown anymore. ~ John Campbell

suspense, along with the son’s curious gameasmanship and the scandal concerning the neighbours, which is plucked like a rabbit out of a hat but left unresolved. A vice-like mystery ensues, but it is thanks to a sleight of hand that is not entirely kosher. There is a sameness about the performances, but the squirmy atmosphere created by Craig Carter’s unsettling soundscape and John Brawley’s shadowy cinematography is inescapable and it leads to an exposition at Lake Mungo that is an absolute killer (it has made my blood run cold conjuring it up just now). Ghosts in cinema are too regularly presented as malevolent things that actively pursue the poor sods who innocently come into their orbit – Poltergeist (’82) and its ilk provoke hysteria but are remembered jocularly – but it’s Alice and the passive, watching, silent spectres that really give us the heebiejeebies. Notwithstanding its flaws and an easy-escape resolution, this is a must see for all fans of the un-dead. ~ John Campbell

The idea was to satisfy three missions – culture, shopping, eating – alongside the adventure of exploring new regions, all within the small space of eight days. It is impressive how much may be achieved if the determination is there – determination and the decision to not even consider the cost of it all – although my efforts toward the shopping and the eating were considerably more vigorous than they were, I regret to say, toward the culture. (For which my partner more than made up, with entire days devoted to art galleries.) The new region, for both of us, was the Great Ocean Road. From Tullamarine in our hire car we slid smoothly south, locating Torquay with ease. Out-of-season, there were few people around the windy streets, the surf shop factory outlets and the new blocky developments; the sea, to my surfing partner’s gratification (he had not brought his board), was flat and grey, so even the proximity of Bell’s could be stoically ignored. Dinner – faultless – was at the swish Surfrider restaurant: scallops with chorizo, duck with roasted pear, hapuka on Asian salad, and we stayed in the former mansion of a Malaysian prince, an upmarket B&B whose swimming pool shimmered beneath a glass

atrium and where home-made brownies came in a stylish little box. The beach-front markets the following morning after good coffee at Moby’s cafe were both familiar and novel ; we bought extra virgin olive oil from the Bellarine Peninsular and cupcakes like cartoons, and could barely restrain ourselves from joining the enchanted, squealing toddlers in the pen of baby animals. To Lorne I lost my heart – although suspected that midsummer it would sag every bit as scruffily as my hometown here. But meanwhile the vision of the bay from the Lorne Hotel as we sat pre-dinner drinking and the sun set evocatively for the cameramen filming an ephemeral bride at the water’s edge; the grandeur of the architecture; the boutiques and the cafes and Babalu Spanish restaurant where we dined on paella cooked out in the courtyard

in a massive paellera and whose toilets piped out taped Spanish lessons, usefully – all of this after a half day driving that coiled and curling road which hugs the ocean and offers up waterfalls and hamlets and footbridges and wild reserve‌ Melbourne, the next day – hire car returned, friends, family and feet to convey us hereon – a shock of contrast, although at least expected. Elegant, busy, glamorous women in black clicking along on towering heels and checking their mobile phones; cacophony and traffic lights; taxi drivers wearing turbans. Cafes so cosy and alluring I want to have coffee every half hour. Laneways teeming with tables of people eating, drinking, talking and laughing (when do Melbourne people actually work?) The bars. The Spanish thing ubiquitous.

CODA

Imported wines served by the glass, single portions of exotic cheeses, smallgoods suspended like every selfrespecting European bar. The dilemma of choice – in venue, in menu. In a basement restaurant called Coda we shared Drunken Chicken Wings, Black Pepper Crab, a Banana Souffle into whose centre we poured warmed Pedro Ximenez sherry. At Giuseppe Arnaldo & Sons it was creamy burrada on a wooden board with lemon cheeks and warm bread, snapper ‘al cartoccio’ and carafe wine with divinely friendly waiters somehow stylish in laboratory coat: it was almost Italy. At pumping thumping Gingerboy against a black wall spiked with silver stars we let silky smooth dumplings slide down our throats; we ate duck and kingfish. And at The European, where at a small outside table I ate one of the best meals of my life (dry-aged minute steak on celeriac remoulade) I looked up to see before me grinning broadly Steve Snow from Fins with his partner Morgan. The whole time away I had not one bad coffee, not one bad meal or snack. It was, in a way, a relief to leave, to brace myself for a bout of selfimposed austerity – albeit in a place no less lovely.

This is a strictly limited event – only 15 places available so if you are interested you should book immediately on 6680 7388. The evening – and what a great idea for a quiet Monday one! – commences at 6.30pm and the cost is $35 a head. Final confirmations must be made by Friday November 6.

CHEESE GOES GOLD It’s becoming almost monotonous, all these cheese awards for local cheesemaker Justin Telfer. He has just won another Gold at the Sydney Specialist Cheesemakers’ Awards, held on October 18, for his Federal fetta. That makes two Golds for that particular cheese: he was

awarded one at the Brisbane Cheese Awards back in June. Justin’s smiling face can be found at the Byron and Bangalow Farmers’ Markets where he is always offering samples of his stellar cheeses – including the fetta.

GALA DINNER Some places still remain for the Philip Johnson (of Brisbane’s e’cco restaurant) Gala Celebratory Dinner at the Byron at Byron Resort on Saturday November 21. Designed to highlight the best of Northern Rivers produce – including that of the aforementioned Justin Telfer – the event will consist of a five-course degustation matched with multi-award winning New Zealand Craggy Range wines. Cost is $170 a head and bookings may be made on 1300 554 362.

Last week’s solution

Mungo’s Crossword first published in The Week.

CANCER: Saturn settling into the sign of sharing extends the mine-versus-ours conversation for some years to come, but solving interpersonal inequalities supports what most Cancerians want: home security and domestic harmony. November in general and this week in particular suggest exploring new ways to achieve more rapport.

TAURUS: Tuesday’s annual Taurus full moon is (what else?) sensual and sexy and the whole of November’s great for real estate (buying, selling or renovating). But Saturn moving into your house of health insists you put certain positive lifestyle changes in place over the next three years…

LEO: Neptune’s forward move renews the promise of realizing a dream. But there’s a clash waiting to happen and you’re better off downplaying drama, even if others are provoking. Manage that, and the half-full part of this week’s glass brings a breakthrough or relocation to something better.

SCORPIO: At your personal rebirth time of year, if you’re feeling more reclusive than usual, that’s to be expected – Saturn in your house of spirituality affects all relationships, particularly the primary one to yourself. This week Mercury gives your thoughts and words weight and wisdom, depth and accuracy.

GEMINI: Saturn the astral focus-narrower in the sign of partnerships for the next three years makes long term goals look more appealing than flitting from flower to flower. Yes, the C word. Commitment – to what’s most important not only for yourself but the whole planetary family.

VIRGO: After the intense, life altering lessons of Saturn in Virgo, this is a week to celebrate its move to the sign of graceful and harmonious connections with others for a three year period when your elegance, expertise and aesthetics will be appreciated and sought after.

SAGITTARIUS: Saturn’s present transit asks you to review how good a job you’ve been doing on your earth journey so far – to check how on track you are with your life, job and partnerships. And to make consciously discriminating choices of companions this week…

In 2006 a little-known player named Eugene Varshavsky rocked the World Open in Philadelphia. Wearing a hat during every game, Varshavsky performed brilliantly, but after his win against GM Ilya Smirin suspicions were raised that his moves exactly matched those of a computer program. When the organiser asked to see Varshavsky he disappeared to the toilets but later submitted to a body and hat search which found nothing. Under strict observation, Varshavsky was allowed to complete the tournament without the hat but he lost all his remaining games. (Another competitor, caught with a radio transmitter, was expelled from the same event.) Varshavsky has not played a rated chess game since then but last week arrived unannounced as a late entry to the US National Sudoku Championships, also hosted in Philadelphia. Having not (yet) experienced chess’s traumatic experiences with cheating, competitive sudoku players in Philadelphia were

AQUARIUS: Neptune and Jupiter turn direct again in Aquarius while Saturn moves out of your house of joint finances into your zone of higher education and travel – a definite improvement in celestial weather conditions for Aquarians as economic pressures lessen, your perspective widens, enthusiasm reboots itself… PISCES: Everything gets tested at this stage of the astral year - shifting, strengthening, resolving or dissolving - so don’t let upsetting news, doubts or discouraging results get you down.

Tossers flip Geckos for Shand win

Crankin’what’s happening in the surf

Brian Mollet

Byron Bay Boardriders

The Melbourne Cup may be the race that stops a nation but the Nick Shand Memorial cricket series abducts the shire and holds it as a hostage in the basement. Sunday’s grand final saw giant killers the Geckos take on the invading army from the far side of the highway, the Byron FullTossers. Overnight rain had the famous Lomath Oval turf as moist and clinging as a horde of questing leeches, Geckos skipper Pete Wynne Moylan won the toss but with the weather hard to predict it may have seemed a poisoned chalice. After some spirited inner debating he invited the Tossers to field. Jan and Christian had the new ball slithering like a startled whip snake early on, Glenn and Adeha the Geckos openers thoroughly scrutinized in the opening exchanges. Like a sanyassin networking party, singles were the main scorers. Glenn suddenly pounced on a good length ball and sent it careening over mid on for six, but lost his middle and leg stumps when he tried to do the same to Levi’s nippy mediums. Matt and Adeha pecked and eked out the runs like a couple of wagtails harrying a crow. The weather began to improve and so did the run rate, Adeha latching on to a few before he missed another ‘effort ball’ from the mercurial Fred (or should we say Freddie Mercury?)

Gecko’s batsman Michael Hidden trying to keep Tosser Christian from the ball

outsiders the Geckos had won the first session. The Tossers weren’t about to throw it away, and thrive on adversity like land speculators in a mortgage crisis. Guru and Shawshank tore after every ball like their life was at stake, raising some ethical questions as to what motivating tools the Byron brains trust, (Alex, Jan and Ash), use to keep the lads keen. Like an unwanted Sri Lankan immigrant, Matt refused to be put off. He scored a defiant 30 but the innings hit the skids around him as Jeff and Guru took wickets and Chi energized with his looping leggies. Mick and ‘Struggling Seymour’, Geckos workhorse and pin-up boy for the poor and afflicted, scrapped and bunted the score to a credible 157. The Byron reply hit a trough early as pace bowlers John and

Matt had the ball hissing and spitting like two feral cats in a bag. Christian had crunched his nose into Matt’s head in a collision earlier and looked a bit like WC Fields but there was nothing funny about his batting. He held on as Dan, Seymour and Glenn took scalps, then hit back before the break to even the odds the half way mark. A run a ball was required and the tension was laid on thicker than mustard on a dodgy sausage. Peter Wynne Moylan took two victims thanks to sharp glove work from Adeha and the ball once again sticking to Glenn’s fingers like a farmer’s friend on a woolly sock. Jeff looked unfazed as wickets fell around him, the Geckos threw everything at him and a very proud streaker leapt over the stumps at his end. He advanced to 30 but was

soon back on the park as the last man in when Ash fell to Adeha. The two best batsmen on the day Christian and Jeff had 26 to score to bring the famous trophy home to Byron. Orifices dilated and tightened as a couple of balls looped into gaps in the outfield. Christian brought up the historic win for the Full Tossers with his third huge six over mid on, and tears of grief, joy and simple angst mixed freely on the hallowed turf. Nick Shand was lauded by good friend Peter Wynne Moylan after the game and toasted by Byron Tossers skipper Alex, who also thanked his team and the support crew of Snakebite, Seymour and the many others who make it all happen. All agreed that once again the Shand series was the perfect balance of the serious and the sublime.

Legendary guru surf filmmaker Tim Bonython will once again bring the Australian Surf Movie festival to Byron Bay as part of a 22 date national tour. A last minute addition to the show will be footage taken last week by Tim at Tasmania’s Shipsterns where Big Wave World champion surfer Ryan Hipwood literally cheated death after passing out after being dumped in what onlookers called the heaviest wave they had ever seen. The national touring film festival comes to Byron Bay’s Great Northern Hotel next Wednesday November 4.

Parkes on Cloud 9 Byron Bay surfer Garrett Parkes, has taken out the Billabong Cloud 9 Invitational held in the Philippines last week, beating Hawaiian Makua Rothman in a man-on-man final. Cloud 9 didn’t quite turn on the epic conditions seen for the opening rounds of the unique, specialty event, with finalists having to mix innovative, newschool manoeuvres with aerials, on-rail carves and barrel rides in rising 3-4ft (1-1.5 metre) waves. Parkes, who stitched up the Gold Coast’s Joel Nantes in the quarters before taking

down local Carlito Nogalo in the semis, made the most of the smaller conditions to bag two mid-range scores – a 5.50 and a 4.67- in the extended 35 minute final. ‘It wasn’t exactly the real cloud 9,’ said Parkes, who collected USD $7,500 for the win. ‘There were not many barrels, but I made do with what I had. I managed to get through a few heats and just keep it going through to the final. I’m stoked.’ Parkes, who was a standout throughout the entire event, said he wasn’t fazed entering the final after Rothman beat event favourite and former pipeline master Jamie O’Brien in semi one.
