artsCape ready to storm the beachfront Biennial sculpture exhibition artsCape workers will be installing pieces in Clarkes Beach Reserve, Byron Bay, from Wednesday June 23 to Friday 25 with the assistance of Dune Care. ArtsCape is open to the public from Saturday 26 and all are welcome to the official opening at the Beach Hotel on Sunday June 27 at 2pm. The beachfront will be home to works from local, national and international sculptors. They will create sculptures which convey messages about the environment and sustainability through ‘humour, beauty, mystery and surprise’. In addition, over 40 of the artists from artsCape Biennial 2010 will exhibit small wall, floor and suspended interior sculptures at Retrospect Galleries in Byron Bay. The exhibition opens at 6pm on Friday and runs until Wednesday July 7. Highlights of the exhibition include participating artist Bert Flugelman, one of the best known and most influential sculptors working in Australia today. Flugelman will exhibit two works in copper and marble, Slender Spiral and Double Arch. Invited artist Keizo Ushio from Japan will exhibit two white marble sculptures. Keizo produces geometrical forms that consider ideas of space and time and consequently appear as eternal and monolithic in their own right. Contemporary Australian sculptor Greg Johns is also participating in the indoor exhibition. John’s sculpture is predominantly made from corten steel, and his successful art practice spans more than 30 years with artworks in major national and international collections. For more information on the artsCape Indoor Sculpture exhibition visit www.retrospectgalleries.com or visit the gallery at 52 Jonson Street, Byron Bay. For more about the Clarkes Beach event and related programs, Annie Younger and her Burger Cruiser will feature in the artsCape sculpture show which opens on Saturday. Merran Morrison and Rebecca Townsend, centre and right, are the curators and project managers of the exhibition. Photo Jeff Dawson visit www.artscapebiennial.org.

Lismore City’s regional library takeover angers councillors Victoria Cosford

Lismore City Council has taken over the Richmond Tweed Regional Library (RTRL) administration, resulting in the resignation of its director Martin Field. Lismore says the move was on the cards for six years but constituent council members say they have been ambushed. A meeting of the Regional Councils Library Group was held recently at the Ballina Council Chambers to determine the fate of the structure and ownership of the regional library and its assets. Operating for more than thirty years, the RTRL involves the Lismore, Ballina, Byron and Tweed councils. Up until now, an informal system of co-management has operated among

the shires with Lismore Council the legally designated owner of all assets. For many years RTRL director Martin Field has tried to have the organisation formally changed to reflect the informal co-ownership status. But in spite of numerous meetings and much correspondence with government and state library officials, Mr Field was not successful in obtaining permission to officially convert Lismore Council’s ownership into a joint councils coownership. Councillor Tom Tabart, a Byron Shire representative on the library committee, told The Echo, ‘Over a number of months the committee had been looking at a different model to run on the basis that the current one had never been legal and was clashing

with the Local Government Act. We were told this had to be done so we looked at a new model. Apparently Lismore Council had moved ahead on this model and we were effectively presented with a fait accompli.’ Among the changes, Martin Field’s position was made subordinate to the finance director of Lismore Council, and Mr Field chose to accept a redundancy package. ‘It’s Lismore’s right to restructure,’ Mr Field said. ‘I perfectly accept that. ‘It’s one of the top performing libraries in the state and one of the cheapest to run so any suggestion that costs can be saved, well, there’s not much left to cut. It would be like telling a thin person they needed to lose weight.’ Cr Tabart said he and fellow com-

<echowebsection=Local News>

mittee member Cr Richard Staples would bring the decision back to Byron Council. ‘We’re coming back to our Council and giving them the facts as we see them to see if we’ll go along with it. ‘Lismore’s doing the bully-boy approach and saying we can’t do anything about it but we can, we can pull out and run our own library service. We’d have to put up a whole new administrative apparatus to run staff – it’s a very expensive business which up until now has been divided among four councils. ‘There’s a myriad of things we’d have to do – we just wouldn’t have the pulling power. Basically we don’t know where we can go now.’ Byron Mayor Jan Barham told The

Echo, ‘The whole process has been very confusing. Lismore Council believes they can go ahead and do this – our understanding is it should come back to Council. We really haven’t had a report that fully explains the implications of all this, for example how our assets are affected, and our new library ...’ Mr Field was keen to point out that the high standards reached by the regional library under his directorship were not due to his efforts alone. ‘It’s not a one-man band. It’s been a total team effort. ‘A champion staff team has made it successful – with the support of course of the Regional Library Committee.’ Q Comment, page 12

Fourteen young people aged from 13 to 25 from the Spaghetti Circus troupe are off to London, where they’ve been selected to represent Australia at the prestigious International Youth Circus Festival. ‘Teenagers’ – a full length work which they’ll also be touring in England and Germany – was a huge success locally, with standing room only at each of the eight Mullumbimby shows. It attracted national media attention, running on the 7.30 Report (available on ABC iView, Wednesday June 16 program) and the ABC’s national radio program AM during the past week. Spaghetti Circus began in 1992. It has grown to become a nationally recognized circus troupe. See more at www. spaghetticircus.org.au. Out of the trees and into the big smoke: Spaghetti Circus.

Settlement strategy ‘utterly toothless’: MARA Byron Shire Council is meeting this Thursday to decide on whether to approve proposals for 46 new dwellings in Main Arm. The Main Arm Residents Association (MARA) said in a press release: ‘It is ironic that Council has just won an award for its estuary management plan yet seems likely to accept the staff recommendation to slap down 46 houses at the top of the sensitive Brunswick wa-

ter catchment: all with individual on site effluent treatment and the potential to pollute and silt the river. ‘So what happened to the sustainable future envisioned by the Byron Rural Settlement Strategy? Another loser in this debacle and another of Council’s award winning strategies that has proved utterly toothless because no-one is prepared to uphold it.

‘Main Armers feel a sense of outrage at having been subjected to these lengthy and shoddy processes by successive councils unwilling to listen to the community or treat it as a legitimate stakeholder in the decision-making. ‘We have to ask what happened to all the developers’ original plans? The greenwash that so convinced Council at the time of rezoning but is no

longer evident. We see nothing but a suburban style subdivision of rural land by Council. ‘We certainly do not need 46 houses and a shopping plaza. A show of support for the Main Arm community or just concern for the future of our diverse and uniquely beautiful hinterland shire is welcome at the Council Chambers on Thursday morning, starting at 9am.’

Dancers are deadly at Bruns school

Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Fifty-five students from around the shire have spent recent weeks glamming it up indigenous style in preparation for a special dance performance. The Brunswick Valley community of schools financed a five week Coroboree program for indigenous children in the area. Each week for two hours children from Goonengerry, Coorabell, Mullumbimby, Ocean Shores, The Pocket and Brunswick Heads converged on Mullumbimby High School for training with indigenous artist and dancer Dhinawan. The idea grew from a seed planted a few years ago when principal of the Brunswick Heads Public School Mick Channells asked Dhinawan to teach the indigenous students at the school. Since then Dhinawan has followed these kids to Mullum High where Aboriginal Education Officer Scott Sentence has been supporting the program and coordinating the senior students, now known as the ‘Deadly Dancers’. ‘The idea was to get the high school kids to be mentors for the primary school kids,’ says Dhinawhan. ‘In this way, the teenagers have to act as role models and the younger kids have someone they know when they get to high school. It’s all

about community.’ For some for of the students it was their first Coroboree training and some have been doing it for a few years. Mullum High’s Harley Black and Chloe Power have been dancing with Dhinawan for the last four years and have taken on the role of captains for the Deadly Dancers. Dhinawan had a huge task melding the students but says that they soon got into the swing of it. ‘It was a lot of work as they are all from different

schools, but once they were all gathered, they knew they were there to learn.’ Dhinawan says that without the help of Scott, the children’s family members and the principals and school staff, the event wouldn’t have happened. ‘It takes a community to raise our kids,’ said Dhinawan after the performances. ‘It was great to see so many people in the community taking part. That way, everyone gets to share the beauty of Aboriginal culture.’ The core groups of Deadly

Dancers undertake many performances in the Northern Rivers. They danced at the Blues Festival in 2007 and the Quiksilver Pro Opening in both 2009 and 2010. They regularly perform at events such as Deadly Days and the Lismore Rodeo. Deadly Dancers Aboriginal Incorporated is currently inviting interest from sponsors.

School celebrates canteen remake

LOUNGE ....

Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Four years in the making, a refurbished canteen was welcomed by Ocean Shores Public School with an opening ceremony and a cake last Friday. The school’s P&C canteen committee started the project in 2006. Federal government BER funds were allocated to the school last year. The canteen committee came up with a workable design within the confines of an existing canteen building and after consultation with architects, building engineers and the Department of Education, work began after this year’s Easter school holidays and was completed three weeks ago. Work on the canteen included a total bench and kitchen fit out with a stainless steel preparation bench, the removal of an internal wall to create a better airflow environment which included having all new louvred windows installed, a new pantry and floor coverings and new window screens

Mark embarks on monster marathon for Uncle While brainstorming fundraising ideas to raise money for Byron Bay community organisation The Uncle Project, Mark Gasson who runs the show was challenged by a Pommy mate over a pint back in the old country to ride a motorbike right across Australia. Always up for a challenge and not one to say ‘never’, (despite having relatively little biking experience and being on P plates!), Mark, now sponsored by Ducati, will ride his Ducati Monster from Steep Point, Western Australia, to Byron Bay in July, connecting with other local community groups along the way. Mark will fly to WA, freight-

ing his motorbike to Steep Point where the ride will begin. He will follow Route 1 from Steep Point via Mount Magnet to Kalgoorlie, across the Nullabor

Plain to Ceduna, SA, on to Port Augusta, Adelaide, Sydney, Armidale and then heading north until he reaches the finishing line at the lighthouse.

Holmgren sees a self-reliant future ‘Hitchhiking, talking to strangers, engaging in informal structure can redevelop quite readily, but the risks are exemplified in the harsher scenarios where people may go into fear and separation and encourages an authoritarian government response. ‘In more rural areas like this, I see a lot more land sharing emerging to increase personal and collective land productivity. So for young people I would see that as a reason to build lots of skill and become a very ‘useful’ person and that gives you your greatest security along with your health and fitness.’

Last Thursday the Mullumbimby Civic Hall was filled to capacity as hundreds of people came from near and far to hear the pragmatic and possibly prophetic words of David Holmgren, one of permaculture’s two cofounders. His discourse related to ‘Future Scenarios’ based on the different combinations and possible timings and impacts of cheap energy descent (peak oil) and climate change effects. Far from being an Armageddon alarmist, Mr Holmgren came from an optimistic position of encouraging an organised transition, rather than the ill prepared alternative. If a hailstorm is coming it is not considered hysterical to move your car under cover, in the same way that by facing the imminent storm of change the impact may be less severe. I asked if the average Australian has the necessary skills for the transition. ‘I think the young people today will be the equivalent of those who went through the Depression and the Second World War,’ Mr Holmgren said. ‘Until it is tested we don’t know what people are capable of, we don’t know what capac-

ity is dormant. ‘Also in the last 30 years, the counter culture has developed some of the elements of this resilience, self reliant, frugal living, salvaging and recycling, creative use of materials, food gardening, sustainable business systems, permaculture and similar systems. Though overall we would have to say that society has become more vulnerable. In fact that lack of skills is our greatest vulnerability, not the lack of physical resources. ‘Compared with other countries, even though we are a

largely dry and infertile continent, per person our mineral and biological wealth is phenomenal, if we lived a really frugal simple life. ‘The social brittleness of individual separation and relating only through social networks don’t involve the actual economic, deeper personal interdependence necessary for more valuable community self reliance and interdependence. The experience of economic relationship with others allows for more exchange and skill sharing and alternative economic systems.

Q Permaculture is described as ‘a design system based on ecological principles’. Human habitat and systems are integrated into a whole ecosystem view, rather than upholding the long held separatist perspective between humans and nature and therefore it makes it a good fit to design for future challenges. In the words of ecologist/activist David Suzuki: ‘What permaculturists are doing is the most important activity that any group is doing on the planet.’ Information on transition and permaculture can be found at www.transitiontowns.org and www.holmgren.com.au.

Residents blast Council on Roundhouse plan The Ocean Shores Roundhouse site subdivision will be considered at the next meeting of Byron Shire Council this Thursday. The staff recommendation is for the land to be subdivided and sold. The staff report states: ‘It is the view of management that the recommendations to Council remain unchanged because of the opportunity for Council to potentially realise a large financial return that could be used for a range of uses including much needed refurbishment and upgrade of its extensive existing assets.’ Jan Mangleson, president of the Ocean Shores Community Association and Ri Fraser, president of the Ocean Shores Art Expo said in a press release:

‘Where is Council’s business plan on exactly how this money will be spent? Is this site going to be sold just to be used for “refurbishment and upgrade? In other words for maintenance? Potholes? Fixing up old buildings? Is that wise use of the best asset Council owns? ‘Council has virtually ignored the public meeting of May 24 at the Ocean Shores Country Club which unanimously agreed the land should be retained for public use. ‘The meeting also called for the concept for a potential use of the site to be forwarded to Council for its consideration. This was done. The concept, the work of international architect Jerry Cook, included

future development of the site for a cultural facility plus short term accommodation for visitors, to provide income for ongoing support of the facility. ‘A Roundhouse Action Group has been formed, consisting of delegates from shirewide community and cultural organisations. It has already met with Prof Arthur Shriberg of Southern Cross University on the formation of a business plan for the Roundhouse site, based on Jerry Cook’s concept. ‘An effective business plan is an enormous undertaking, especially for a community group. It requires extensive research and expertise. Council asked us to provide this, but it has given us less than a month.

We ask for Council to give us time and some assistance to get this plan done. Councillors then will have far more information on which to base their decision. ‘Councillors are being asked to make decisions on a development application that is nearly a decade old, on a subdivision that uses some of the best land for road base, and in a format that hardly considers Council’s own sustainability principles. ‘Council has failed to provide a shire cultural facility. Every Northern Rivers shire has its own area arts gallery, library and museum. We ask people to come to the council meeting next Thursday at 9am to give their support.’

Ewingsdale roundabout

Every winter, residents of RSL Life Care retirement villages in NSW are offered a Winter Wonderland Festival in the grounds of the homes. At Bayside@Byron, formerly Pinehaven, they were treated to a visit by Old McDonald Farm baby animals. Collected in a small enclosure out the front of the main building, the piglets, ducks, lambs, calf and chickens were surrounded by a circle of seated residents swathed in crocheted shawls. Activities Officer Tony Radburn told The Echo that ‘every winter we have something – last year we decided we were on a cruise ship and the year before we did the Winter Olympics. All the RSL Life Care Homes in NSW do the same thing on the same day every year. ‘The program runs for a week and there’s lots of activities, events and entertainment.’ The previous day there had been an opera singer performing show tunes and jazz. According to director of nursing Michelle Dwyer, ‘We had a fantastic day – they were all absolutely mesmerised.’ Families and friends bringing small children are encouraged to come along and join in.

Work on the roundabout entrance to the Byron Regional Sport and Cultural Centre (BRSCC) is due to commence this week. Council awarded the roundabout construction contract last month to local company Brunswick Quarries. Council’s executive manager of community infrastructure Phil Holloway said construction on the $1.13 million roundabout is expected to take about 14 weeks. He said motorists may experience some delays during this time but traffic controllers would be on hand to assist with traffic flow. Flashing traffic signage will also be in place. Construction will occur from 7am to 6pm Monday to Friday and 8am to 1pm Saturday. Mr Holloway said the roundabout access is part of the $16.8 million BRSCC construction program. ‘Work to date has been going well on the site with over 700 trucks of fill being brought into the site with little disruption to traffic.’ Motorists are encouraged contact Council on 6626 7000 if they have any questions or concerns during construction of the roundabout. Additional information can be found at www.byron.nsw.gov.au/byronregional-sport-and-culturalcomplex.

‘We try and keep life as normal as possible’, Tony told The Echo. ‘We have barbecues and the families get involved. We just try and make this as home-like as possible.’ Michelle said that ‘we’re really trying to raise the profile of this place and get the community more involved and aware.’

Redevelopment plans are in place which will include independent living units. In the meantime, in keeping with the wintry theme, there’s a snowman in the entrance and a frostily decorated living room. ‘It’s a really nice week for them’, said deputy director Kay Demestre.

Jannine’s organic baby store turns ten Story & photo Eve Jeffery

Jannine Barron has grown her business like a healthy baby and her ‘child’ is about to turn 10. Jannine’s story is literally one of rags to riches, which started with twenty dollars and a piece of cloth. ‘I was on a parenting benefit,’ says Jannine. ‘I had been travelling before I got pregnant so had no resources behind me. 'My life was primarily as a volunteer and I funded my travels with teaching, media and human rights administration work. I always did what I loved whether it paid me or not. I remember having $20 that I could spare to buy some fabric. I had to wait until the next fortnight to buy more’. Jannine wanted to be able to work from home to look after her own toddlers and she first opened the doors of Australia’s first organic baby store in her garage in July 2000. She sold to local Byron Bay parents and her hours were from noon to 5pm one day a week. She also began to sell her organic products online. ‘I developed an online niche business,’ says Jannine. ‘We had about ten sales a week. Every sale online is still exciting, even after all these years.’ Three years later Jannine’s youngest was old enough to be

Jannine Barron will celebrate the 10th anniversary of growing organic babies at Nature’s Child.

off to school so she opened a warehouse to cater for the business’ growth. Nature’s Child now retails from its Byron Bay premises on Banksia Drive, the showroom a wonderland of every possible baby and pregnancy requirement. Jannine says the mission of Nature’s Child is to sell certified organic, chemical free products for pregnancy, babies, children, home and lifestyle, which don’t cost the earth. ‘We want to make it easy for

parents to enjoy organic, earthfriendly shopping.’ she says. ‘Our vision that we work with every day is simple: “Cherish our children, cherish our earth”.’ ‘Our products are simply beautiful with the core value of no chemicals. It’s such a basic concept that we would not expose our children to harmful chemicals. It still seems strange to me that I have to “sell” this as a concept of interest, but the truth is that most people just don’t realise what is in main-

stream products and how potentially harmful they are’. Jannine says that she will be definitely celebrating on July 1. ‘In the morning, I will go to the farmers market. We will be handing our free hessian shopping bags to parents and free organic lollipops for kids. ‘We will be doing the same at the shop all day. We are also having a storewide sale on our birthday to say thank you to all the amazing local clients that have helped build our organic business.’

Market ground gets a greening

EARTHMOVING ROADWORKS DRIVEWAYS

Photo & story Victoria Cosford

The Byron Markets at Butler Reserve in summer can be unremittingly hot – but now a solution has been found. A collaboration between the Byron Community Centre, Byron Shire Council, the Green and Clean Awareness Team and the markets (Byron and the Farmers) has formed to beautify the reserve by planting native trees and covering bins with frangipani artwork. Fittingly, the tree-planting took place on World Environment Day when a group of volunteers representing the bodies concerned assembled at the reserve armed with shovels, spades, wheelbarrows, hoses and trailers. Byron Market Manager Tess Cullen calls it the ‘greening [of] the market ground’. She told The Echo that Council had donated mulch and soil and, at the time of the Echo’s visit, 6 of the 20 lillipillies promised. ‘This is what I like’, she said, ‘it’s an incredibly collaborative event – the crew is a whole lot of people from the community. Everybody’s got involved. ‘Stage Two is under-planting. I’ve got people into regeneration who’ll come and plant the right trees. It’s beautification.’ About ten of the trees will grow to 7-10 metres high, creating canopies and shading the

entranceways to the market. ‘On the gateways I’m making some green areas’, Tess said, ‘The charity groups there fry on a hot day!’ Farmers Market director Donald Recsei said, ‘Because we’re a weekly market I’ve undertaken with the farmers to water the trees. I’ll get three or four farmers and give them the responsibility of watering. Initially it’s so important to water regularly.’

Go get healthy,

Local businesses Cape Nursery and Bangalow Wholesale Nursery have also donated some large shade trees. As for those lillipillies – ‘we just thought the lillipillies at the roundabout should be put to good use,’ Byron Community Centre’s General Manager Paul Spooner told The Echo. ‘They’ll be planted in the busking areas to provide shade. It looks so barren, it’s nice to see the trees being used.’

According to Paul there are ‘always complaints about not enough shade’ at the markets. ‘This is community land,’ said Tess. ‘The Byron Market has been treeless for too long – in summer it’s just too hot.’ Water gums and white gardenia will be among some of the trees planted. Together with the vibrantly painted frangipani bins the Reserve will definitely be a more beautiful space.

Council project wins national award Byron Shire Council has taken out the overall prize for Excellence in Local Government for the Brunswick Area Sewerage Augmentation Scheme (BASAS) awarded at a ceremony with Prime Minister Kevin Rudd at Parliament House in Canberra last Thursday. ‘This is the top national local government award,’ said Mayor Jan Barham. ‘It doesn’t get any better in terms of a gold medal for local government projects. ‘It is an achievement to be extremely proud of as it demonstrates Council has the right approach in ensuring environmental and social outcomes receive a high priority in community infrastructure projects.’ Mayor Barham thanked the community for ten years of input and support towards the infrastructure project. ‘The initiative and collaboration of the Brunswick River Wastewater Steering Committee and ongoing work by community groups such as Landcare, has been recognised at the highest level,’ she said. She also acknowledged the support of Council staff in ensuring the project was at the forefront of environmental infrastructure. The new $39 million sewerage scheme replaces outdated sewage treatment plants at

Due for completion late 2010 the new plant will divert treated effluent from Simpsons Creek at Brunswick Heads towards beneficial reuse on farms as part of the Main Arm effluent reuse scheme. This is the third national award for the BASAS Council project. It was recently successful in winning the National Awards for Local Government category Innovation in Natural Resource Management category and a United Nations World Environment Day Award.

Beyond the dead embrace of gossip Volume 25#03

June 22, 2010

Library takeover The Richmond Tweed Regional Library (www.rtrl.nsw.gov. au) provides an excellent service to the north coast region which includes the Lismore, Ballina, Byron and Tweed council areas. This is due in large part to the inspired leadership of its director Martin Field and the cheerful, informed staff who greet you at its various branches. Each council contributes to the RTRL’s funding, along with the state government, but now we are told Lismore Council is taking over the whole show, controlling staff and finances. Various councillors have described the move as an ‘ambush’, while Lismore mayor Jenny Dowell says the change has been on the cards for six years. Obviously Lismore’s consultation process hasn’t worked, if the reactions of other councillors on the library committee are anything to go by. Apparently the RTRL service has operated on an informal, cooperative basis among councils for the last 30 years outside the requirements of either the Library Act or the Local Government Act. No-one had been troubled by this arrangement until the state government decided to tighten up the legal position, presumably for insurance reasons, and insist on one executive council. Lismore says a county council model, similar to Rous Water, for example, had been proposed but did not receive the support of all member councils. This is not really a decision that Lismore or any other member council should have to take – the state government has been derelict in its duty towards establishing a statewide, well-funded management system for our libraries. Now that Lismore’s finance director has control of the money, there is a danger that constituent councils, operating purely in an advisory capacity, will be reluctant to contribute funds, thus impoverishing a service from which we all – those of us who borrow books anyway – benefit. Will Byron Shire and the staunch community lobbyists be happy to hand over administrative control of the longawaited new Byron Bay library to Lismore bureaucrats who have no involvement in its history? The first sad casualty of the change is the loss of Martin Field’s expertise. Set to be the underling of a Lismore manager, Mr Field chose instead to take a redundancy package – no-one can blame him for doing so. Mr Field has been a highly articulate promoter of the rights and joys of our free library system, and has frequently pointed out how the state government has fallen behind in its level of funding compared to other states. He deserves our thanks and best wishes. I hope the north coast councils, along with the state government, can resolve this administrative kerfuffle in a positive manner which will not endanger the RTRL funding. They can be sure the eyes of library members – we love our library and we vote – will be upon them. – Michael McDonald, editor

eing totally out of touch unfocusses the mind wonderfully; the dayto-day crises of the political scene fade into insignificance once they cease thrusting themselves upon what passes for one’s attention. For the last ten days I have been in the deep north of Australia, insulated from the media like a baby koala in its mother’s pouch. No press, no radio, no phone, no internet. The blissful seclusion was broken just once, when I chanced across a copy of the Northern Territory News of Tuesday, June 15. From this journal of record I learned that charter flights were bringing asylum seekers from Christmas Island to the mainland, which I had gleaned a month or so previously. This single piece of national news was buried under the comics. Apart from that, my sole contact with what the political pundits insist on calling the real world has been campsite gossip. In Lawn Hill someone mentioned that the press gallery appeared to have abandoned its febrile pursuit of a leadership change in the Labor Party; apparently it had finally dawned on even the ultimatum-threateners of The Australian that you can’t have a challenge without a challenger. Instead, the gallery had reverted to its other favourite obsession: speculation about an election date. Someone else claimed to have heard an ABC news broadcast of Bob Brown gravely opining that although the election could be as late as April next year, it probably wouldn’t be. Someone else noted that Barnaby Joyce had been reported as suggesting that the coalition could win five, or possibly

B

six, seats in Queensland. After that the conversation turned to regret that while the nearby fossil beds of Riversleigh had unearthed traces of the ancestry of every mammal currently living in Australia, the origins of Kevin Rudd and Tony Abbott remained a mystery. Of course, to retrace the ancestry of Barnaby Joyce one would need to go further south, to the dinosaur fields of

the talk about wasted money – well, we didn’t get too much insulation out in the bush, but a few of the local schools have done all right out of the BER, whatever that is. And don’t believe the miners are going to go broke; Century and Macarthur are doing very nicely thank you and don’t let anyone tell you different. One incredulous worker said he had heard stories that

Current Affairs with

Mungo MacCallum Richmond and Hughenden. And that was about it. Hence what follows is written unencumbered by knowledge, information, news, gossip, slander, innuendo, lies and the Murdoch press. It must be said that in the far north, politics is not the main area of concern; the weather beats it every time. The floodwaters are receding, most roads are now open, and the countryside is alive with wattle, grevilleas, turkey bush and flowering gums, not to mention the odd roadside runner of wildflowers and the carpet of water lilies on the lagoons. On the rare occasions that people can be drawn into debate, they are anything but passionate. Okay, so Kevin has been a bit of a disappointment, but aren’t they all? At least most people kept their jobs through the global recession or whatever it was, and you have to give him a few marks for that. And as for all

Gina bloody Rinehart, Lang bloody Hancock’s daughter and the richest woman in the whole bloody country, was leading protests. That’d be a bit of a joke wouldn’t it? Another noted that the so-called protestors were adapting an old union chant: ‘The miners, united, will never be defeated.’ Give us a break. If the bosses want to pinch the workers’ songs they could at least make up their own words. A few suggestions: ‘The miners, tight-fisted, can never be resisted.’ ‘We’re miners, we’re heavy, we will not pay the levy.’ ‘The miners, hell-bent, refuse to pay the rent.’ ‘The miners have practice at dodging paying taxes.’ ‘Hey Kevin, piss off, it’s our right to make huge profits.’ And so on ad infinitum. The overall feeling was that no one really understood how the new tax would work, but if the bosses were screaming so loudly about it it couldn’t

be such a bad thing. This, of course, was precisely the reaction Kevin Rudd and Wayne Swan had been hoping for from the start. The screaming hostility the miners and their allies in the opposition and the media have been trying to whip up is simply not there – well not yet, and not in the backblocks of the far north. If they have to talk about Rudd (Kevin, that is, not Steele of Dad and Dave fame) there is a definitely a sense of let-down; they don’t think he’s done all that much wrong, but there’s not too much to cheer about either. Rudd the dud perhaps, but what’s the alternative? Even one diehard Liberal voter confessed that although he would continue to toe the party line, the prospect of Abbott filled him with pain and gloom. There was a notable lack of enthusiasm for either option. The conventional wisdom is that apathy favours the incumbent, and that would appear to be the case at present. There is certainly space for Rudd to make a comeback; if he is able to divide the miners, and reach some kind of agreement with even a few of them, it could be sold as a victory, and in the absence of anything much else would probably be enough to swing the balance. But it will take a mighty effort indeed in his second term if he is ever to recapture that first fine careless rapture of the heady days of Kevin 07. And Tony Abbott will need to mature considerably both as a person and a politician if he is to be given a second chance. In 2010 it appears that we have escaped a double dissolution election, only to be saddled with a Double Disillusion. Hey, that’s not a bad name for a book.

Letters Missing out A recent analysis by The Australia Institute has found that people living in this region may be missing out on government assistance they are entitled to. We examined four Centrelink payments – Parenting Payment, Carer Allowance, Disability Support Pension and Bereavement Allowance – and found that more than 168,000 Australians are likely to be missing out on entitlements worth a total of $623 million. The main reason for this is a lack of awareness of available support and knowing how to access such help. Currently there is no obligation on Centrelink to pursue people who are eligible for payments but may not be aware.

Make a swap Ah, the advantage of incumbency! To say nothing of changing demographics and boundary changes and of suss collaborators. ‘Liberals for Forests’? Do give me a break! The end result has been an entrenched, all but invisible local member of questionable competence with seemingly little interest in the issues close to the heart of her electorate. Who was the only local member who could not be found by the ABC to provide any sort of commentary on the recent budget? Who fobs off representations from individual constituents? Who sounds bored, tired and not across her brief when presenting policy changes? All a bit embarrassing, ol’ chum. But I have no brief for the other lot. Maybe it’s not too late for the local ALP dynamos to change horses. So, tell you what. Can we please do a swap with Janelle Saffin? Now

there’s a committed, talented polly who knows what hard work and serving her community is all about. Come on, you faceless lot behind your closed doors. It’s just a little swap and the Lismore crowd won’t mind. You can do it! Hugh Ermacora

Being heard I wish someone would have a polite word in Mayor Barham’s ear, or even a rude one. The key to ensuring good governance is to ask questions, ask questions and ask more questions. People also have a right to make submissions in person and it’s not good enough for Jan to say ‘it’s OK, we’ve read your written submissions’. Written submissions have less impact and the councillors need the opportunity to ask questions of the person making the submission: sometimes people are too close to the action to see the problems or holes in their presentation and the opportunity to expand on any particular point is important. Last year we had the spectacle of neighbours of the Blues Fest site being given one and a quarter minutes to voice their objections, ie an inflexible five minutes in total divided by the number of people making submissions, which in this case was four. Jan, this was a preposterous denial of due process. Each of those neighbours had a separate case and with different considerations and as a member of the public I would have liked to hear fully what each of them had to say. I am not privy to what written communication may have been sent, and probably nor is anyone else in the gallery. Do we not count? There is also the legal point that objectors could have a council decision overturned if a reasonable opportunity to make submissions was not given. This would result in costs to ratepayers funds. My main point though is that

a debate takes as long as it takes and shouldn’t be subject to preconceived notions about ‘we’ve got a meeting to get through’. If you stand for election that is what you put your hand up for, boring as it may be. Good decisions don’t get made under pressure of arbitrary and artificial time constraints, and good governance means more than conducting meetings imperiously to create an impression of no-nonsense efficiency. People need to feel that they are being heard, Jan, not herded. Fast Buck$

Roundhouse message Who in Council is not listening to the people? The community has sent a very loud and clear message to the council: the Roundhouse site is not to be sold off to throw cash into the dwindling coffers of Council. Over 100 people representing several local community groups gathered on May 24 to unanimously recommend to Council to retain the hilltop for a future community cultural facility. Is the council financially embarrassed by the $20m blowout at Ewingsdale? Selling the Roundhouse site will not help short-term as Council would have to prepare the site by spending $1.2m for its subdivision and eventual sale in the longer term. Residents in the north are not happy that Council put this item on their agenda for next Thursday 24th without informing the community. Given the ire raised by ignoring local intentions for this land, you would think Council would have the courtesy to keep us in the loop regarding this – to us – precious piece of land. Clearly Council cheapens its worth to just cash for a fire sale. Next Thursday we need to pack the gallery at Council at 9am to let the Councillors

Ocean Shores

Festering lagoon The lagoon extending across Main Beach Byron Bay is a festering mess. It is constantly being topped up with urban runoff. The formation of lagoons is a natural event. Filling them with urban detritus is very unnatural. The drain that tops up this lagoon with dog faeces and other waste was installed about 1970. After sandmining had flattened the local ecosystem the council installed the drain. A ‘Green’ council would refuse this happening today. Therefore a ‘Green’ council should immediately shut this drain down and return the flow of water to the pre 1970 course. I contacted the mayor just before Christmas with my concerns. She responded that as a result of tests ‘the [lagoon] water was considered to be a public safety issue’ and that the lagoon was to be emptied. A good immediate response but soon it was back to a festering hole. Council has admitted that this lagoon can be a health issue. How often do they test the water quality ? A further response from Council in February 2010: ‘Where children are allowed to play in such stagnating waters the primary responsibility remains with parents. Drowning is considered to be a far higher risk.’ Seems to be a frank admission that the council drain filling a lagoon is both a risk to health and makes the depth an increased risk of drowning. Where are the Council ‘No Swimming’ signs that were at the exit of the drain for many years. Perhaps having these in place would be an admission of liability. Tell that to the little children who are often

The dirty water drifts along the shore to the surfclub and our most popular patrolled beach. It is up to Council to close this drain. Restore this famous beach to the pre 1970 state when there was no drain.

I am a teacher and father of two boys with ADHD and have done a great deal of research on the treatment of Autism spectrum disorders. I am immediately concerned when I see adverts for sessions like ‘How to stop and repair autism spectrum disorders without drugs’ at the Community Centre on June 25 by Michael Sichel (Echo, June 15). In my years G Graham of experience I have found a Byron Bay common thread among these

questionable claims: firstly, a link to Scientology, secondly no empirical research and thirdly, nothing published in a peer reviewed medical journal. I suspect that Michael Sichel ticks all three boxes. I strongly urge anyone attending this information session to ask the following questions: What are his links to Scientology?

He is a doctor of naturopathy, a doctor of osteopathy and he has a PhD – but what is his PhD in? How does this qualify him as a consultant in autism and paediatrics? Is his evidence for success based on any empirical research or is it based solely on testimonials? Has he had any findings published in a peerreviewed medical journal? Please think about your children’s’ future very carefully when considering these kind of approaches and make informed decisions. And my boys?

Defending Israel

Where was everybody last Tuesday night? Too cosy on the couch at home? It was disheartening to see only a handful of people turn up to the Byron Youth Activity Centre to listen to the inspirational story of 2009 Young Australian of the Year, Jonty Bush. It wasn’t even a cold night! What an amazing woman with an incredibly inspiring message of determination, forgiveness and of taking personal responsibility in life. Hopefully some of our high school students were able to attend the day session. Jonty was the initiator of the ‘One Punch Can Kill’ anti-vio-

It is sad to read letters like the one from Gareth Smith and Maxine Caron (Echo, June 15), falsely accusing Israel of collectively punishing the people of Gaza. If that was Israel’s intention, it would not permit 14,000 tons of food, clothing, medical supplies and other materials to be transported into Gaza from Israel every week. Nor would it allow thousands of Palestinians to enter Israel for treatment by Israeli doctors at Israeli hospitals. The blockade exists only because the Hamas rulers of Gaza have been caught red-handed time and again trying to smug-

<echowebsection=Letters>

gle rockets, mortars and other weapons into Gaza. Over the years, Hamas has fired thousands of rockets and mortars into Israel, aimed deliberately and cynically at civilian population centres. Israelis get a warning of 15 seconds when this happens. The real issue about the blockade which gets lost in the swirl of emotions is how to deal with dual-use items such as concrete, piping and other building materials. In the past, Hamas has diverted such supplies away from the Palestinian civilians who genuinely need them and used them for its own nefarious purposes. No doubt Mr Smith and Ms Caron are sincere in wanting to help the civilians of Gaza, but blindly lashing out at Israel is not the answer. Experience demonstrates the need for Israel to monitor what enters Gaza. Other nations could help by working with Israel to set up a mechanism to verify the end-use of what is supplied to ensure that only non-military supplies get in and that they are used to benefit Palestinian civilians, and not to help Hamas launch another round of bloodshed.

Macca’s at Yamba Upon reading of the ‘statewide standard model planning requirements’ that the state government is attempting to impose on our shires, I am not surprised! The government can’t have a whole region holding biodiversity as their number one priority! This could seriously inhibit ‘progress’, thus causing a threat to the economic vision they hold so dear. It seems every battle/argument in this area comes down to progress/economy/greed versus awareness. Which brings me to the situation here in Yamba. McDonald’s is planning to set up a massive scale restaurant in our small coastal town. Although our opposition to this proposal

www.echo.net.au

Letters has been overwhelming, close to 4,000 signatures, 455 submissions to council, all saying ‘no thank you’, the population being 5,514 our amalgamated council decided to vote 5-2 in favour of the DA. Now we just want you good people in Byron Shire to know that the nominated franchisee of the proposed ‘wholesome family restaurant’ who is also franchisee of the Ballina McDonald’s, Scott Campbell, is living right there in Byron shire with you all. A shire that has successfully kept the area McDonald’s free. So if anyone feels inclined to politely ‘enlighten’ him of a future that is necessary for us all, you would be doing us here in Yamba a real favour, and you can expect the red carpet when you visit.

More food for thought The Mullumbimby Farmers Market (MFM) committee and stallholders would like to thank the local community for supporting our new weekly market at the Showgrounds and in helping to establish a fabulous and colourful Mullum vibe. We were very ambitious starting up with 55 stalls and as we are just into our third month of operation we have

yet to see how many stalls can be sustained by our weekly customer numbers, before we can begin to consider if expansion is viable. MFM is primarily a local farmers and local food product/food related market, set up by the North Byron Farmers Market association and community volunteers. We modified the existing New Brighton Farmers Market model to offer more choice to consumers while still retaining the emphasis on local food production. It was never the intention to allot more than a few stall spaces dedicated to snack foods and no food vans are allowed in. Existing stallholders are already offering a fairly wide range of breakfast snack foods beyond sushi and all ‘prepared’ foods need to be made with a high proportion of MFM stallholder produce. Local macadamia and bush food muesli with local yogurt will be coming soon as a conventional ‘breakfast’ option. We have had enquiries and applications from many other local businesses who offer cooked and ‘prepared food’ and maybe this is a good moment for a local community group to organise a monthly night food market in Mullum? Then we could offer an outlet for all our inventive local food operators and give them the opportunity to sell their empanadas, Thai sweets, Chi-

nese dumplings, Indian vegan, Indonesian treats etc and at the same time create a bit more of our special Mullum magic. I would love to see a new incarnation of ‘Mullum under the Stars’ with Burringbar Street closed for a few hours, tables in the street and local music. Judy MacDonald

Doof doof doof The Byron Environment Centre (BEC) publicly condemns Splendour supporter and forest doof promoter Duncan Shipley-Smith (Letters, June 15), in attempting to get info and documents from CONOS by claiming an involvement with the BEC. (He attended one bush regen in the last ten years.) His letter does reveal however, an important, not previously apparent aspect of Splendour’s proposal. Duncan Shipley-Smith holds doofs. I contacted him, and he revealed his previous event funding from Splendour and his intention to use the smaller community event slots, in Splendour’s Yelgun event site DA, for doofs of 3,000 participants. Residents note, that as well as the three day Splendour event, that events ‘over 10,000’ may be a long series of individual one day rock concerts, and

Need drives community imperatives for animals and us Mary Gardner

‘I never knew when I planted this tree 25 years ago that it could be a food tree for a koala,’ said my neighbour. He was so excited. Six of us joined him looking up into the eucalypt. Right in the heart of Byron Bay, a large koala was resting. It tilted its head and peered down at us. Evening made a silhouette of it against the darkening sky. Shortly, some of us were at another neighbour’s, having a cuppa and considering the significance of the event. A wandering koala is either on the typical search of the youngster for its own home territory or in exodus from some disaster which disrupted its orderly existence. In extremis, males or females may travel forty to fifty kilometres. Here in Northern Rivers, settled koalas are small groups faithful to a set of favourite food trees. At the heart are females sharing a dominant male. I would guess they are very likely also entertaining some of the other males on the

periphery of their territory. We tried to imagine how the koala would get to the next food tree. Every other eucalypt was across a busy road and past dogs. And if it wasn’t looking for food, how might it pick its path towards, well, towards what? What else does a koala look for? What does every animal look for? Its necessities. Its community. And all of a quality that can sustain it over time. This is true of all of us animals, isn’t it? What we call society surely has at its heart biology in action. Much like koalas, humans require necessities, communities and sustainability. If that weren’t enough, we must also manage our consciousness full of words and images, numbers as well as all its careering emotions named and unnamed. The next day, I walk to the shops along a road that follows the edge of a paperbark swamp. Lorikeets squawk and crested doves look down from the lines overhead. I cross the railway tracks over to the emp-

ty market grounds. The swamp fans out behind. Somewhere in there is a colony of bats. The squealing gives them away. Overhead, the group numbers a dozen or two per tree over six or seven trees. There are always a few that flap about, shifting from one branch to another. They extend a wing and grip with their claw-like thumb. I am startled by how they look reaching with their winged arms as they clamber about. I hear that bats from our region and Queensland are on the move across Australia. They are desperate for food. Unusual rains washed out their favoured supplies of eucalypt blossoms, which are fewer in number anyway due to continued logging and clearing. The animals are impoverished, on the margins of society. They migrate, trying to help themselves. Reports I read on the internet say they are not quite welcome where they turn up. Necessities. Community. Sustainabillity. It’s all over the news. Refugees coming here

from war-torn countries. The crisis in affordable housing. The state’s interests pushing skewed development, pressuring local councils, grasping at national parks and coastal floodplains. Power costs going up as the state commits to new coal burning plants. Local prospecting for oil? And always, there’s the climate changing. As importantly, on June 15, powerful international groups met in London to launch the new Manifesto from Sussex University. This public declaration by some of the world’s foremost economists insists that ‘poverty reduction, social justice and environmental sustainability are the great moral and political imperatives of our age’. They scrutinise the agendas held by centres of power and research and find them very badly wanting. They insist that big science and technology, wielded by government and business, should work directly for common necessities, fair community and environmental sustainability. This can only be done by aligning with local

efforts and ‘protecting creative experimentation’. Oh, that must be all those alternatives for energy, farming, housing, transport, markets and gardens. Shared food. Therapies. Local goods. Local currencies. Seed saving. Wildlife corridors. More tree planting. With lots of music and art. These Rainbow Region styles swamping the Sydney, Brisbane and Canberra corridors of power. Plus much more, wildly innovative more, which we are right now only dreaming up. How about we arrange everything into those three major groups, reflecting our moral imperatives? What better way for us to remind every politician and state official what we really want? Damn it. We don’t want more stuff. We don’t want to devote our lives simply to accumulating stuff. We want to grow our children, our cultures and ourselves. To support us, we want our economy to work within real limits about how it uses our

land, water and us too. These limits need genuine political clout well before the ecological ones force their painful impersonal corrections on every one of us. All of us animals are in trouble. Some are on the move already. Are we heeding the signs?

that, now revealed, Splendour’s innocuous sounding ‘smaller community events’ are likely to include an additional ongoing series of doofs. Duncan’s allegations of ‘no evidence’ of environmental impacts from forest doofs displays his ignorance of the known adverse environmental impacts, and displays his contempt for the known impact on residents. (The BEC adopted the position seven years ago to oppose forest doofs.) If tourist event numbers reach repeated waves of 30,000 in Byron, as they

have in Splendour’s Woodford event, then we’ll have a brand new largest population centre in the Shire, in the middle of a wildlife corridor containing an abundance of Aboriginal cultural heratige sites! The music promoters would speak for the new majority of the Shire’s population, and residents’ funds would have to be used to service this new major ‘occasional’ population centre. The level of attendees’ disposable holiday income would further orientate the Shire’s retail and services to tourism, which further erodes the resi-

dents’ connection and commitment to this place. The rest of the Shire would increasingly follow Byron Bay’s descent into a tourist trash town. The state government Splendour/Parklands permanent event site DA should be out on exhibition soon. Should the state government not reject this critical Splendour application, then I’d urge residents to put in submissions. The proposal coming to you from Splendour and Duncan Shipley-Smith appears to be a socially and environmentally tourist trashed shire, accompanied by the haunting night

jority in the parliament. I mentioned I went to the Dreaming. Well, a lot of the Elders and old people are not happy with our parliament’s disrespect of culture, the people’s needs, their law and their land. I suggest that Mr Rudd would be better off with Uncle Richard Brookdale, a Doomadgee Songman, as an advisor on all policy, and not the current senior advisor (31 years old) he relies on. Oh yeah, I accept Mandy’s challenge. It’s been a few years (beers) since the ‘nude ain’t rude’ gathering, and yes, it is probably a thing that us Shire folk have had a bit of experience at. But Mandy, if we have to get naked at the StationStreet site, can we do it middle of the day, – not so chilly! Nic Faulkner

A fairer tax on resources for f a stronger economy. Australia’s natural resources belong to all of us. Yet over the last ten years, while mining profits have increased, our share of those profits has actually fallen. It’s important to remember that these are resources that can’t be replaced once they’re gone. So we need to get fair value for them now, so that the wealth can be invested in our community. By increasing the tax on resource profits more can be invested in boosting superannuation, helping small business, and building new infrastructure. This will strengthen our economy for the future. These are big issues that affect us all, so it’s important to know the facts. To find out more, call 1800 614 133 or go to www.australia.gov.au/futuretax

I wholly agree with the letter from Rasa Dover (Echo, June 15) about Mandy’s column and her recent Soapbox about ‘Vegans with a Beef ’. I too read the Soapbox first up then everything else. I often wonder what would we would do (as the Vegans would have it) if the whole planet turned Vegan. Besides the collapse of one of our primary industries, would we have to sterilise all our farm animals so that they would not reproduce any more, denying them the pleasure of mating? How cruel would that be? Or would we have to kill them all and bury them in mass graves? That seems very mean, too. Or would we have to keep them all until they died out? Who would pay for their feed? The poor farmer would have no income to feed them. Oh, I know, let them all go free and wild in the bush so that they can join their wild cousins and really tear up the ecological balance of our country! Then what about the poor African goat herder with out any goats or cattle to tend to? What could he do all day? Sit under a boabab tree and chase the flies out of his face? How would he get a wife with no animals to trade? What about the Inuit? His diet is 95 per cent meat, that poor bugger and his entire race would be extinguished in no time. I could go on and on about how animals are important to the lives of people across the planet whether we eat them or not. But to have everyone be Vegan would not be practical in any sense. So please if you are Vegan don’t expect others to think it is the best for everyone else because it is not. Unless you can come up with a better solution – please let me know! Nancy Jo Falcone

your band (it’s very difficult to play with people you hate). 5. Don’t pay your equipment guys more than you pay the musicians (it causes resentment). 6. Keep the band’s accounts impeccably straight and publish them quarterly (so everyone can see where the money went). 7. Don’t do drugs and alcohol at the same time (life is short, you might make it even shorter). 8. Don’t display an artistic temperament (it’s for amateurs). 9. Don’t lose your mobile phone on tour (no explanation necessary). 10. Never talk band business with civilians (they’re not equipped to understand). I hope Robert Forster will take what I have said with a good grace, for I loved his book and what he had to say. When I see him I look forward to a good argument about his choice of the top five bands of all time and we can have fun disputing the ten rock and roll rules. This is a wonderful book and I heartily recommend it. As Mick Jagger has said: ‘It’s only rock and roll, but I like it.’

Sam Cutler

I read Robert Forster’s The 10 Rules of Rock and Roll: collected music writings 2005-09 with great interest, having spent a large part of my life down in the rock and roll ‘trenches’ of which he speaks. I welcome Forster’s reflections on music and the creative writing process as one welcomes the writings of prisoners on the experience of imprisonment: there simply is no substitute for genuine experience! Forster has tons of experience and comes across as a calm, dignified and unpretentious man who as a member of The Go Betweens produced some calm, dignified and unpretentious music, with several of his songs being achingly beautiful anthemic musings upon Australian life. He is undoubtedly a master of his craft. Forster’s writings on music possess the same stirring and uncomplicated ethereal quality which informs his songs and anyone who aspires to write contemporary pop music would do well to read this book. In reviewing the book I feel a little like a patient being asked to examine his own doctor, for though I was a tour manager and looked after famous musicians, I was never a performer as such. Nonetheless I can bring an ‘informed

Writer and musician Robert Forster.

perspective’ to the task, having witnessed the ‘creative process’ firsthand upon countless tours and in endless hotel rooms where only a guitar has saved several people I know from being driven terminally crazy. This is a great book and I heartily recommend it to all, and having said that I now feel comfortable in expressing my only reservations! The title The 10 Rules of Rock and Roll has a slightly naff whiff and I found myself wondering whether it was the erudite Robert Forster’s idea or whether it was created by the publishing house insisting upon a punchy title that would somehow make the book more readily marketable. The writing stands strongly on its own and

has no need for such gimmicks. That being said I was intrigued by what the ten rules might be and read them with consternation, for in my opinion none of them (other than the first one) are rules as such, but rather they are Forster’s ‘observations’. In a spirit of friendly rock and roll camaraderie might I suggest the following as my own tried and true rules: 1. There are no rock and roll rules that cannot be broken (albeit at considerable personal Q Sam Cutler was tour manager for the Rolling Stones and risk). 2. Don’t play on a wet stage the Grateful Dead. (you’re liable to get electrocuted). 3. Never turn your lawyer or accountant onto drugs (they’ll want to become your friends). 4. Don’t sleep with people in

ney is defined by her complex relationship with her father Tony, an Aboriginal rights activist confronting his own truths. Kim Cheng Boey’s Between Stations segues silkily into a memory from the poet’s childhood and long walks with his father. David Carlin has given us Our Father Who Wasn’t There. When David was six months

Idol winner Damien Leith’s Remember June is a shattering novel about fathers and sons and the power of memory. Byron Bay Writers Festival dates are August 6-8.

The University of Melbourne and Deakin University last week released a new joint research report evaluating the Kitchen Garden Program, confirming it has created health behaviour change in primary school children across Australia. The study was carried out over two years and

shows there is a significant increase in children’s willingness to try new foods, with 39 per cent of children reporting they would try new foods, compared with 26 per cent at the start of the program.

'As adults, we’re all very conscious of the traditional health messages with which we’re inundated daily. When developing this program, we really wanted to show Australia’s Seventy-one per cent of future mums and dads children in participating that learning about healthy schools reported they enjoyed cooking, compared food choices can be fun, with just 50 per cent at non- enjoyable and taste good. participating schools.

Stephanie Alexander said, We’re looking forward to 'A fundamental aim of the program has always been to expanding the program further to allow more show children the benefits of healthy food preparation children to experience the Foundation’s pleasurable food education philosophy.' Children are not the only beneficiaries of the program, with forty-one per cent of parents in the survey claiming their children asked them to cook food

University of Melbourne principal investigator Dr Lisa Gibbs said, 'The flowon effect of this program is significant, with many children asking their parents to cook healthy meals they have made at school. 'Since the program has been introduced, teachers are also seeing a noticeable difference in the nutritional quality of food that children had been bringing to school for snacks and lunches. 'Another important finding was that the program was considered by teachers to be particularly effective in engaging "non-academic learners".' The program aims to expand further, and by 2012, it is anticipated more than 250 schools around Australia will be part of the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden program with 25,000 children participating.

as dramatically as first thought. The Federal Government has ruled that solar income received as credits on an electricity bill will not be assessable when determining the level of benefits someone receives. Solar income is still counted if it’s received via direct deposit or cheque however a person would have to install a very large solar electricity system for this to have an impact on benefits. ‘Someone installing a basic 1.5kW home solar electricity system would make up to $55 per fortnight which on its own would not affect benefits like the pension at all but would however cover the electricity bill for the average homeowner,’ said Adam Tesoriero Director of SolarSwitch.

MAKE MONEY OFF YOUR ROOF WITH SOLAR

Solar electricity is now a sound financial investment as well as an investment in the future of our planet thanks to a number of fantastic incentives. The new solar electricity rebate or “Solar Credits Scheme” is now open to everyone including businesses. It represents thousands of dollars towards the initial cost of your system which SolarSwitch offers as a generous point of sale discount. NSW now also has the most generous solar buy-back scheme in the country. Anyone with a solar electricity system under 10kW will get paid at least 60c per kilowatt hour, almost four times the retail rate, for all the electricity their panels generate. For example someone with an average 1.5kW home solar electricity system would get credited $1300 - $1500 per year for the electricity their system produces. This means your investment pays for itself in less than four years and then makes you thousands of dollars over the next 20 plus years. The scheme will be reviewed by the State Government after the first 50 Megawatts are installed in NSW or July 2012, whichever comes first, so now is the

perfect time to install solar to take maximum advantage of this generous incentive. As this is a 25 year investment in your home or business it is important to buy quality equipment backed by a reputable multi-national company with offices in Australia, so the warranty is held here. Also ensure your system is installed by a qualified Clean Energy Council accredited electrician, and they are on site the entire time. Having installed over 2500 solar electricity systems in NSW SolarSwitch has the knowledge, expertise and dedicated staff to carry out your installation in a timely and professional manner. “We pride ourselves on installing quality equipment sourced from reputable manufacturers that will be around to honour your 25 year manufacturer’s warranty… this is a lifetime investment after all” said Adam Tesoriero, Director of SolarSwitch. SolarSwitch offer the highest quality monocrystalline solar panels and German inverters that are the most efficient and widely used in the world.

Break out the beanies, the Lismore Lantern Parade is almost here. When the lanterns hit the streets on Saturday 26 it will mark 17 years of lighting the way with a unique community event without a peer. This annual event is a visual feast of larger than life lanterns, illuminated sculptures, masks, costumes, parade performers, dancers and drummers, all winding their way through Lismore in a carnival style street parade. The event is produced by LightnUp Inc, a Lismore based community enterprise. This year’s theme is ‘The Seeds of Tomorrow‌’ Festival Director Jyllie Jackson caught up with The Echo. So what inspired you to create the Lantern Parade? It’s a way for the community to honour the cycles of the seasons in an authentic, contemporary celebration. It’s also a way to enliven the heart of the City of Lismore. What are the challenges that you face with your event? Resources, money. It is a free event, with a beautiful and strong culture of volunteering, however, the production values, expectations and the requirements of producing an event of this size are expensive. It is also important to value the artists and performers who make this festival so amazing, they are professionals and should be recompensed just as much as the sound guy or the printer. We rely on enormous goodwill from sponsors and supporters, as well as the artists. It is quite exhausting to keep on having to ask for stuff, but by the same token it is a wonderful feeling to receive

such love and support from so many parts of the community. How does the LP bring community together? The parades are exciting and beautiful and fun. The glow of the lanterns removes barriers and people who may not necessarily have any reason to speak or even see each other on a day to day basis find themselves walking/talking together in the gentle light of the lanterns and there is the warmth of community. I also think that there is a yearning in society/community to BE together, to huddle and cuddle and feel humanity. We spend so much time in screen digital based activities to come out in the chilly night air, to smell the burning of the bonfire, see the beauty of the lanterns has a profound effect on people. It is also something that has been a part of so many children’s entire lives, a generational ritual, that many would not miss for anything! Finally, it is accessible to all levels of community from People with Disabilities, to corporate bankers, preschoolers to 90 year old great grandmothers! What’s the process for the lanterns? Drawings, then frames‌ is it time consuming? Yes it is time consuming. We are constantly developing and refining the process, which is very exciting. When I look at our very old lanterns – they are so clumsy and rough, and then see the first lanterns of the trainees in the shed now, they are magnificent and leave our old lanterns for dead!! We use a cane called pahang, bamboo, wire, paper or silk.

Who actually makes the lanterns? All sorts of people, trained artists, people on unemployment programs, volunteers and our core team of artists who work here all year round. What should we be expecting for this year's event? What are the particular highlights of things to do and see‌ is it affordable for a family? Lots of really wonderful new lanterns – The Tree of Souls, kangaroo, possum, pelican zebra‌ some old favourites all smartened up! More music – ‘the PA’s in Pushers’, The fabulous Roller Derby Girls and the Zumba Dancers. The beautiful Illuminated Sculpture Garden, in Riverside Park, where you can look at the lanterns up close and personal! And of course the fantastic Southern Cross University Stage featuring the Barons of Tang. There will be the Erth Dinosaurs wandering the CBD. The Kids Arts Space where children can make magical Art from nature, decorate lanterns, get face painted and explore and play in the Great Worm. Oh and the pony rides and the horse and cart leading the parade‌ and then of course there’s the parade itself and the finale!

swearing with words like ‘Sugar’ just doesn’t cut it. Sugar is the cause of obesity, diabetes, cancer and death, where as fucking causes life. Then why isn’t it illegal to say ‘sugar’? Swearing needs to become part of our every day interactions. There should be swearing at weddings: ‘Do you take this cockhead to be your…, swearing in the bank: ‘$2.50 to withdraw my own money, that’s ffing bullshit.’, and swearing at funerals: ’Brian was a stupid cunt.

If Carlos Santana had been hanging out in Iraq for the last ten years then he would have to sound something like the Gold Coast’s own Tijuana Cartel. Their performances are a concoction of multi-layered grooves, splashes of Middle Eastern vocals, lilting Mobyesque soundscapes, Flamenco and slide guitar, trumpet, Electronic world beats and live Latin Cuban Percussion. A fusion of infectious music and phat electronic dance beats. Their musical energy and unrestrained delivery is thrilling audiences wherever they perform. Their tunes meander their way across the bumpiest musical terrain, a rhythmic body moved with stately deliberation creating inspiring and infectious rhythms that you just cannot help but dance to. They are joined by sumptuous support act, Deya Dova. Saturday at the Bangalow A&I Hall. Show 8pm. Tickets: $17 presale/$22 at door available from Barebones Bangalow, Mullum Books, All Music & Vision Byron, and earth.net.au/tickets/

The Scarlett School

Scarlett Affection’s Nerida and Melia Naughton bring their talents to the stage alongside the students they have been mentoring as part of The Scarlett School. The girls chatted with The Echo in the lead up to their gig at Newrybar Hall on Thursday. Haven’t heard from you for ages, what have you been up to? N: Well one of us decided to get married – so there were countless hours spent on the wedding plans! M: Ha! Actually we have been squirrelling away writing, creating and teaching! Do you make a conscious choice not to play many gigs in the local area? N: Our last local concert was when we supported Clare Bowditch at the A & I Hall which was a really special night. M: Our Real, Raw and Regional Tour took in some very remote parts of NSW and that was a big eye opener – we met some extraordinary people and had some amazing audiences. But when we play locally, we love it – it’s always an exciting proposition to play a hometown show! Are you constantly making music? N: We hit dry patches like everyone else – but lately we have really hit a creative nerve and can’t seem to stop playing with ideas. Tell me about the Scarlett School?

www.echo.net.au

N: It is our Contemporary Music School that endeavours to inspire through performance, songwriting, piano, flute and guitar. Our students play what they WANT to play! M: There is a world of music out there and everyone has their own taste which is so invigorating. We construct an individually tailored curriculum for each student. We firmly believe technique and a theoretical understanding gives a solid foundation for creating and playing music – but above and beyond all else – it has to be fun! Our goal is to inspire every single student. N: We believe that by teaching our students to play the music they LOVE, not only will they love what they are learning but they will also enjoy what we believe to be the lifelong gift of music. What do you try and bring out in your students? M: Inspiration. Fun. Humour. Confidence. Skill and enthusiasm. N: A love of music. Laughter and song. How does teaching influence what you bring to your own songwriting/performance? M: We are always inspired by our students and their creativity. It’s a wonderful interaction to share ideas. N: Teaching makes us want to keep performing, continue creating and see the joy in the craft! Our students are incredibly talented individuals who inspire us! It has brought a whole new

layer to our songwriting. Do you think that performance can be taught… is it something people just have , or is it a practised skill? N: I believe that everybody has performance skills. You need them to get through life. Without even realising it, you are performing every day in just about every interaction you have with people. Stage performance is just a heightened level of performance – and is absolutely practised through the simple act of performing. M: Some people have an innate understanding of performance and they find it thrilling – others grow to feel more comfortable with it. At first, it can seem terrifying but with practice and guidance, it can be hugely satisfying. Are you working on a new album? M: Yes! We are and it’s really exciting. N: The album has shifted our sound and I really believe that we have found our ‘sound’. I suppose songwriting is a practised craft – and this album needed us to practise a lot! Will we be seeing more of Nerida and Melia on the music scene in the next 12 months? M: Yes we certainly hope so! N: Absolutely! Not only will you see more of Scarlett Affection but also our students! Newrybar Hall Thursday 7pm $10. Tix at door and Barebones Bangalow.

Mum’s Your Uncle Vanya Anton Chekhov’s plays are very much about characters who, while they may think globally, are unable to act locally and so fail to grab the opportunity to find happiness and fulfillment in their lives when it arises. The Drill Hall Theatre Company, on the other hand, is providing the opportunity

for eight actors and a crew of four to ‘act locally’ in their next production, Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya. Director Mike Russo believes that community theatre is about generosity and contribution and is a great cultural focus for a country town like Mullum. With so many entertainment options for people these days, community theatre must reach a high standard so that audiences not only enjoy the experience but develop their love of live theatre. ‘With this production we have already reached that standard and still have ten days before we open to make this play even funnier and more moving,’ says Mike. Uncle Vanya opens at the Drill Hall on Friday and runs for three weekends; Fridays and Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 5pm. Tickets at $15, $12 & $10 are available from The Bookshop, Mullum and Mary Ryan’s Bookshop, Byron Bay or by phoning 6684 1413.

Television Guide 1. Richard Cetrone plays Big Daddy Mars, as one does, in the much overrated John Carpenter’s Ghosts Of Mars (GO!, Friday, 11.30pm), a bit of horror schlock with which to while away the dead hours. 2. Shrek The Third (NBN, Saturday, 7.30pm) has risen from the vault because Shrek 4 is now out. Read John Campbell’s review on the Cinema page. 3. The wonderful Charles Dickens continues to provide a rich harvest of characters for Britain’s superb character actors in the series Little Dorrit (ABC1, Sunday, 8.35pm). This was back in the days when people knew how to use the language as a means of communication.

A great read no matter where you are!

Michael Sichel ND DO PhD (in Health Education) has been an osteopath and naturopath for 40 years. He is a founding member of the MINDD Foundation – whose doctors deal with autism spectrum disorders. MINDD holds an International Conference in Sydney in May, annually. Michael lectures to many parents and teachers at schools and universities and his treatment and restoration of ASD children is his passion and joy. He has written four books on ASD children, one is now in its updated Third Edition. “Good News for the Alphabet Kids” has been described by several parents as a healing ‘bible’. It is used now successfully by nearly two thousand parents. Michael’s first ASD family was in 1992 (two boys, reversed their problems in one week!). Unfortunately the restoration process since 2000 has become significantly more difficult. In 2003 - 2004 to deal with this, Michael began to introduce the important and highly successful non-invasive natural chelation and function restoring process for children in the autism spectrum community.

cCINEMAREVIEWSd Lou When speaking of a new Australian release, how often do year hear reviewers say, with the most honourable intentions, that it is a terrific ‘little’ film? The epithet (used in reference to Belinda Chayko’s current movie by David and Margaret, Sandra Hall of the SMH and I’ll bet plenty of others) acts as a qualifier that, intentionally or otherwise, warns the viewer not to expect too much because, after all, it is Australian. Repeated ad nauseam, it has resulted in the local industry’s acquiescence to a worthiness that is as genuine as it is risk-free and ephemeral. Unquestionably, this is an excellent little film which is held together by the expert contribution of a seasoned, insightful veteran (John Hurt) and a stunning performance from newcomer, Lily Bell-Tindley. Doing it tough

as a single mother raising three young girls in the cane fields of northern NSW, Rhia (Emily Barclay) takes Alzheimer’s stricken Doyle (John Hurt) in to her home, hoping to make ends meet with the money she will be paid as his carer. Of her daughters, Leanne, Lani and Lou (Bell-Tindley), it is the eldest, eleven year-old Lou, who is most put out. Her bonding with Doyle and her awakening to the meaning of love become the story’s focus. I kept waiting for something to happen, but when I realized that nothing was going to, other than the obvious, I was able to relax and appreciate the tenderness and depth of understanding that grew between a not immediately likeable child and a codger who had, in his own words, ‘lost his marbles’. Bell-Tindley’s mesmerizing beauty alone is enough to carry the day, and it’s just as well, for you get an

Shrek Forever After I make no bones about it; I’ve been a Shrek fan since first encountering the green ogre in 2001 and remain convinced that he is as believable as any flesh and blood screen character. Nonetheless, I am prepared to concede that the two sequels weren’t up to the original’s standard and the prospect of a fourth outing for the big fella falling into the ‘why did they bother?’ basket loomed large. 3D has revitalized the series (although this is ostensibly the last instalment), but so too has a screenplay that is complex and moralistic. Unexpectedly (and weirdly for a cartoon), it commences with a series of flashbacks FULLY AIR-CONDITIONED EVERY WED ALL SEATS ALL SESSIONS $8 ONLY

which, in re-writing its own history, reveal that at the time of Shrek’s initial liberation of Fiona from her entrapment, the villainous Rumplestiltskin was already plotting his fall. It’s a complicated twist but you get the gist of it pretty quickly as the story pursues its perennially relevant theme. Most famously dealt with in Frank Kapra’s It’s Wonderful Life and sung about by Joni Mitchell (‘you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone’), Shrek is bugged by the question of ‘what if?’ Knowing of his angst ridden need to be free of the daily frustrations as husband and father of a demanding young family, Rumplstiltskin draws up a Faustian contract that will land Shrek in a parallel existence in which he is homeless and not recognized by his beloved Fiona. In this strange place, Fiona (who still looks like Kim Clijsters) is a warrior princess leading the outsider ogres in their rebellion against Rumplestiltskin and his supporters, a coven of fantastic black-clad, broom riding witches. More fat Xena than muscular Boudicca, Fiona is unique in the annals of great heroines in that, unlike the scrawny role models of Sex and the City et al, she is unashamed of her size eighteen bodice. But sadly for Shrek, she doesn’t know who he really is (i.e., her husband), and will not know until he has pashed-off with her. Donkey, whom I’ve always enjoyed (Eddie Murphy kills me), is as effervescent, cowardly and wisecracking as ever, but coming to the fore this time around is Antonio Banderas’s Puss in Boots. Overweight and idle, he does a great begging routine and, when caught eating one of the gingerbread men, delivers a priceless ‘you didn’t want any of this, did you?’ Shrek IV is more serious in intent than its predecessors, but the wit is as sharp, the personalities as true and the animation an absolute treat. ~ John Campbell

production design, as the filmmakers create a convincing, raw, unjust and dangerous world – England as it might have been almost 1,000 years ago. The battle scenes are muddy and bloody, the artefacts of ancient warfare a fascinating study of man’s ingenuity when it comes to killing machines, and the sounds of battle help make these scenes a visceral experience. Balancing these ‘epic’ aspects are the profoundly human issues that are woven through the story, how a young Robin saw his

father and his world, how Kings were flawed and how valuable personal freedoms are, especially when threatened. Russell Crowe is convincing in this brooding, intense portrayal of a man thrust into the pages of history. Cate Blanchett creates a powerful portrait of a proud, gutsy and resourceful Marion, whose no-nonsense shell hides a genuinely warm heart. Both leads delve deep into their characters for resonant and satisfying performances. ~ Lounge Cinema

inordinate number of closeups of her gazing wistfully, thoughtfully, sadly etc at events as they (very) slowly unfold. Real life sisters CharlieRose and Eloise MacLennan provide sparkling naturalness but Emily Barclay is all at sea in the perfunctorily written part of Lou’s mother. There is splendid support from Jay Ryan as Rhia’s boyfriend Cosmo, and Jonathan Segat as the paperboy, whose crush on Lou is sweetly observed – them spiking their drinks at a barbecue is a delightful scene. Except for that gorgeous Maori lament, ‘Pokearekare Ana’, the music generally sounds budget conscious (a given in ‘little’ Australian films) and, though the location shots are evocative, the area’s dripping heat and blinding summer light (it is meant, for no essential reason, to be Christmas), are lost to a drab winteriness that drains the piece of much of its warmth. ~ John Campbell

The Queen’s Birthday weekend is the time for Grand Prix tournaments – in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide and Burnie. Australia’s top players were divided almost evenly between the Victorian and NSW Opens, with five members of Australia’s 2010 Olympic team using the events in Sydney and Melbourne to tune up for the Khanty Mansiysk Olympiad in September. In Sydney, Australian Champion Zhao Zong Yuan triumphed and moved to within striking distance of George Xie in the race for the 2010 Grand Prix title. However the Australian number one’s victory at the NSW Open was anything but convincing and Zhao stood on the verge of defeat against Canberra’s Gareth Oliver in the penultimate round. In the diagrammed position, right, Oliver, playing White, just needed to find 29.Bg3! Qxa2 30.Ra4 Qb2 31.Rb1 and he would have won Zhao’s queen, the game and possibly the tournament. Instead Oliver played 29.R4c2, let his advantage slip and lost.

SCORPIO: It makes zilch sense to keep investing in something that’s no longer working when there’s a future out there with your name on it. If this week brings a sudden turn of financial events that force a break with the past, don’t think disaster. Think opportunity.

CAPRICORN: If logic sinks in this week’s unpredictable ocean of emotions, people mightn’t be reasonable or sensible, so appeal to their feelings instead of their heads. Negotiate tough decisions with flexibility rather than insistence, help where you can, leave if you can’t and make no promises. AQUARIUS: The present rich mix of the good, the bad and the inevitable has you wired, fired and inspired, so set yourself the challenge of moving through small annoyances, bleeps and glitches without upsetting anyone – especially yourself. Nesting, resting and digesting are this week’s recommended exercise. PISCES: Don’t let imagined slights or perceived disapproval spoil your enjoyment as situations undergo their inevitable transformations. Get your personal rituals in place and put winter solstice week to its best use: breaking old habits and making new resolutions. Isn’t the weather supporting your doing just that...

VIRGO: Winter solstice is the perfect (your fave word) time for taking stock of the last twelve months (what you did well, what you didn’t), then giving it all a big hug and kissing it off, because the quicker you let go the faster you’ll move forward.

LEO: Even Venus in Leo can’t make this a promising week for extending debt or credit, so focus on making positive contributions to domestic dynamics. Others may be unavailable or unreliable so you’ll have to make your own fun – but hey, isn’t that your forte?

LIBRA: If someone’s moods have you puzzled get used to it because the next few weeks take a trip to Mood City. Should this spark friction at home with visitors or a family member, remember home is ultimately your state of mind – your own interior place of peace.

GEMINI: Look for the positive spin on this week’s unexpected upsets and destabilizing surprises because you know bad news is always accompanied by lucky breaks. With everyone going through their changes this week won’t be entirely stress free, but remember you’re not the old you any more either.

FOOD PRODUCERS SHINE Our local producers just keep winning awards. Without a trace of bragging, Bangalow Cheese Company’s Justin Telfer told The Echo that he seems to win awards every time he enters a competition, the most recent being Gold for his Coorabell Fresh Curd (a divine creamy Persian fettastyle cheese in olive oil and herbs) at the Brisbane Cheese Awards in June. In May at the Queensland Royal Dairy Produce Show he was awarded Gold for his Nashua Washed Rind (which had also won a Gold at the Sydney Royal Cheese & Dairy Awards), Silver for the Bangalow Cultured Butter, Federal Fetta and Brooklet Brie and a Bronze for the Tintenbar Triple Cream. Meanwhile, Nimbin Valley Dairy’s Kerry Wilson scored well at the Brisbane Cheese Awards as well, winning a Gold for his goat’s cheese Orange Fetta (spiced with orange and fresh rosemary). This is all the more impressive given the dairy has only been producing goat’s cheese for the past year. The only goat farmers in Northern NSW and operating 3kms out of Nimbin, Nimbin Valley Dairy has a herd of 80 goats. Their other cheeses include Lillian Fetta, Lemon Billy (with lemon myrtle, bush pepper and roast garlic) and Chilli Billy (with chilli jam) and can be found at the Farmers Market.

Out at the Barcoo outlet Dan Hill and I are discussing the vicissitudes of fashion, especially with regard to eating meat. Whereas at least a couple of decades ago it was deemed almost unsophisticated if you did so – a blokeish, boorish sort of thing aligned to beer-drinking and burping – there has been a resurgence of interest in it, and beef in particular. Dan Hill and Dhugal Cowen are the boys behind Barcoo Beef, a four-year old familyowned company operating in the Northern Rivers. Some six months ago I had become aware of their meat at Byron Bay’s Green Garage, particularly the fabulously fat sausages and richly marbled cuts of meat in cryovac packs. Both boys come from cattle farms and, according to Dan, their company is ‘all about the wellbeing of the animal. Our cattle remain in the paddock – we put grain in the paddocks and the animals always remain in their natural environments.’ The grain-feed, Dan goes on to tell me, ‘changes the flavour of the meat so it’s a bit sweeter, whereas grass-fed cattle is fullflavoured, the sort of meat your grandparents used to eat.’ So here are cows enjoying the best of both worlds, in a sense – free-ranging across pastures with access to both the big flavour-inducing grasses and the fat-enhancing, sweetening grains. No wonder people are beginning to pay attention. Moreover, the cows are Angus. I put it to Dan that one of the various reasons for the upswing in the favour of beef has been the popularity, the very fashionability of Wagyu. Wagyu – from ‘Wa’ meaning Japanese and ‘gyu’ meaning cow – refers to a Japanese beef breed, or several breeds genetically predisposed to intense marbling, the most reliable component of meat taste and tenderness. Originally draught animals selected for their physical endurance, the Japanese Wagyu derived from native Asian cattle which were infused with British and European breeds in the late 1800s. They made their way to Australia in 1991 and now Australian Wagyu

bloodlines are considered among the best in the world. The marbling, or intramuscular fat (IMF), results in softer fats and enhanced flavour; correspondingly it is very expensive. And yet according to Dan ‘with Angus you get more value for your money.’ Dan believes it was Angus which ‘brought beef back into fashion more than Wagyu… 60per cent of Wagyu herds in Australia are crossed with Angus anyway’, he tells me. I am unable to forget the words of Carlo Petrini, founder of the Slow Food Movement, in his address at Sydney’s Opera House late last year, to the effect that never before has food been talked about so much. A global obsession, it would appear, with television shows like Masterchef feeding the frenzy. This, too, is contributing to the revival of passion for cooking and eating meat – it is almost as if we paid our dues sufficiently, after 20 or so years focusing austerely on fish and seafood and the joyous versatility of vegetables and white meats like quail, and are now re-embracing the robustness of a good steak or a slow-cooked casserole, or reverting to comforting ‘peasant’ dishes utilising inexpensive cuts like shanks and ox-tails. ‘Flanks are becoming popular’, Dan tells me, ‘they’ve got a lot of flavour – and they’re very lean. People are liking that South American-style of grills…’ He says that a lot of restaurants are serving this particular cut – ‘it’s 90 per cent lean, with no fat.’ He is noticing that ‘people are going back to retro cuts like T-bones… but they are also eating their meat a lot rarer these days, so want something flavoursome and tender… Things like ossobuco are coming back – slow cooking…’ Essentially, what Barcoo is about is trying to bring back value for money. ‘We’re not here to profiteer off a good product’, Dan says, ‘we just want to get a good product out here.’ Barcoo Beef is at 81 Centennial Circuit, Byron Bay, a wholesale outlet where the public can purchase restaurant- and export-quality beef at wholesale prices.

and that Mr Abbott by the law of averages will have disgraced himself in an incident involving budgiesmugglers or a buffalo. It is the time to go for it, before the fates rebound.’ Before he left us to our meal, we paid close attention to Mr Buonarroti’s prognostications. His track record was just too good to ignore. Shortly after he arrived in Australia from his native Romania in 1974, he predicted Edward Gough Whitlam’s downfall. Since then he has been right on the ascent of Hawke, the defeat of Keating, and the re-election of Tuckey, to name but a few. Some bets were made by mobile. Always the Doubting Thomas, perhaps for no reason other than he cannot make up his mind, Abbotsleigh turned to the waitress, Honey Somersault, for another opinion. Miss Somersault supplements her waitressing income as a pole dancer and crime novelist, and is also known for her rumour-collecting abilities. ‘I am in agreement with Mr Buonarroti,’ said the lithe-limbed author, whose Knuckle Sandwich, the sequel to Razor Gang, reached number five in the Angus & Robertson charts. ‘Steelnose Teddy says it can’t be otherwise, for he has heard it from Mr Rudd’s gardener, who owes Steelnose thirty thousand bucks and his second-born child.’ It seems a sure thing, then. We opened a bottle of the Open Democracy Pin The Tail On The Donkey Vote Pinot Noir 2007, with its delicate fragrance of burning ambition, and looked towards the shining future.

Mr Buonarroti’s nose is a complex organ. It involves not only the olfactory device, but his own instinct, information from government sources who owe him favours, and readings from nature – the flight patterns of birds, the shapes of clouds, and so on. He has been known too to consult his own meals: the Fettaugen – the eyes of fat – on the minestrone, are they big or small? Are they swirling to the left or right?

Angelo Buonarroti, the owner of the Byron Bay restaurant Angelo’s, is a great fan of psephology, the statistical study of elections and trends in voting, especially of the predictive kind. For Angelo the predictive kind involves betting, and as Angelo is the owner of many other things, you can be assured that his betting is accompanied by a high degree of accuracy.

‘Also there are more common indicators,’ Angelo tells us. ‘The local MP takes up bulk advertising and letterbox drops, for instance.’

So, pondering as we were when Kevin Michael Rudd would set the date for the federal election, with the least opportunity of Anthony John Abbott rat-forking him completely, to use the PM’s own colourful expression, we piled into the Bentleys and took ourselves off to Angelo’s to ask the good businessman seer his opinion on to where we should be directing our wagers, and to partake of his chef’s excellent cuisine.

After consecutive losses, both Byron Bay and Mullumbimby were desperate for the two NRRRL competition points on offer at Red Devil Park on Sunday. Coach and lock-forward Simon Kelly steered Byron home by 25-14, but the score was no indicator of the tightness of the contest. The first forty minutes had the typical dourness of a local derby, with hooker Eli ‘the Hobbit’ Colby barging over from dummy half to put the Devils in front after twenty-five minutes, a lead they extended to 8-0 when Sam Barnes was

Tension mounted as chances went begging at either end, bringing into raucous play the opposing factions on the terraces – it was the Capulets and Montagues all over again, only with no love flowering on the turf. And the inevitable came to pass. Giant’s winger Joel Christie found Duane ‘Caligula’ Cahill’s shiny skull an irresistible target for his fist, their skirmish prompting an all-in that allowed everyone to vent their spleen. ‘He’s a repeat offender, give

him half an hour!’ the Old Bloke advised, acting as honorary QC, but the ref saw fit to send Christie to the bin for ten, along with the Bay’s Jonathan Cox and Chris Coleman. Down to eleven against twelve, the Devils were unable to prevent the fired up Giants from clawing their way back to 8-all after a Matt Mulcahy try and goals to Chase Nelson. A punishing second half saw Brad Lees cross to put Byron ahead, only for the scores to be locked again when Grant Cook burrowed through from dummy half.

for the Devils, but the eight minutes remaining were always going to be too many to maintain the skinny lead it provided. Captain and will o’ the wisp centre Clarence Kelly, shut down for most of the day by rigorous marking, was primed for an explosive contribution. When Mullum botched a scrum move he swooped on the loose ball to sprint sixty metres to the line, but the missed conversion attempt meant that Byron’s 19-14 lead was not unassailable – especially against never-say-die Mullum. But one last twist awaited. The Giants’ kicking game had been the more effective throughout, so it was ironic that a Byron up-and-under should bury the visitors in the extraordinary finale. From his own half, with speculation rather than design, the Devils’ Connor hoiked it high. The ball landed precisely where none of three defenders could quite get it on the full. Storming through like a towtruck on its way to a prang, Leon Kelly got the bounce of a lifetime and, to the delirious delight of the red crowd on the western slope and the funereal silence of the mob on the eastern, the winger raced forty metres untouched to the goalposts. It was a coup de grace delivered at thrilling speed. The Giants and their supporters, still living in hope, would have been gutted but, as they say in the classics, geez it was grouse.

You couldn’t have pre-ordered a better day for the Byron to Bruns Run than the one that was had on Sunday. Clear skies, low tide, hard sand, gentle breeze: perfect. Forty runners set out from Belongil Beach at 8am and the first competitor, Mullumbimby’s Scott Sewell, arrived at Bruns 36 minutes 58 seconds later. Though the day was gorgeous, runners still put in a massive effort to record times that will be hard to beat next year. The winners of the divisions were: First male, Scott Sewell, 36:58, Scott also won the 35+ division. First female, Ela

Heinger 44:43, Ela also won the under 14 female division. The 65+ male winner was Adrian Dangerfield in 53:06 and the 55+ male was Paul Dixon who ran 43:03. The 55+ female was Maree Wheelin with 53:42 and the 45+ male was Peter Jarvis, 44:36. The 45+ female winner was Natalie Carter in 54:00 and the Open male was John Furber running 41:05 and the Open female was Tara Douglas who ran 47:18. In the junior section the under 15 male was Asher Douglas coming home is 52:27 and the under 12 male was Gabe Douglas who ran 52:34.

Maggies win in Nimbin The Maggies travelled to Nimbin on the weekend, it was a great experience in country football for new players. With several players rested due to injuries Hungry and Ron Jeremy had to pull on the boots to give us 16. It was a scrappy game with Byron running out 167 to 76 winners. Show me the money Johnnie was trying to impress Coolangatta scouts with plenty of running, sadly he didn’t end up with a contract. Joey and Sammie out of the centre created opportunities and goals and kicked eight between them. Adam was providing a good

link on the forward line with Ron who kicked four in his comeback game and showed he liked playing around the flanks. Dom rucked and tackled hard all day. Sticky was moved to the backline with his superglue hands and took some great grabs.Nic had a good second half and created many opportunities down ground. It was a win but with the season nearing halfway Byron will need to improve to beat Ballina at home next week to stay in the topfpur. New players and enquiries ring Mick 0432 401 334.

Mullum to Bruns is all about family

A family affair, Luca Tansley-Beckerman with his prized number one, with sister Rosa who will wear number three in a pram propelled by number two runner mum Sally and brother Tula who will wear the 1001 as the first numbered walker. Photo Tree Faerie.

Luca Tansley-Beckerman has waited for two years to be a number one and he thought that he was a shoe-in to be the single digit numbered runner

for the third annual Mullum to Bruns Run and Walk, as his dad is the principal organiser. But Mehil Beckerman had other ideas.

Union’s away weekend Bangalow

Byron

Bangalow played second placed Kyogle at Kyogle on Saturday going down 27-8. Banglow were under the pump from the start, defending for long periods. To their credit the score was only 10-3 at half time due to Bangalow’s staunch defence. Kyogle scored a soft converted try and penalty kick. Bangalow did score a well executed try to Chris Davies from a lineout, but it was Kyogle’s classy backs that found holes out wide, scoring three more tries in the second half. Bangalows scrums were about as good as the Wallabies which made it hard for the backs to attack from. Overall Bangalows performance was well below par. This Saturday Bangalow is away to the friendly fishermen from Iluka who are one point behind in fifth place. This will be the defining game of the season.

Byron travelled to Evans Head. Byron’s first try came after some good lead up work by the forwards, which saw Dan Ryan go over out wide. The backs were having a mixed day with Matt Alexander directing play down field and a bit of quick thinking saw Fabien our flying French winger score at the half time 10-0. The second half started with five penalties against Byron and Evans scored a well deserved try to their halfback Les Huges. Byron bounced back with a well constructed try. For some reason the ref got confused with the time and called full time after that, the final score being 17-7. Matt Alexander will be having his 100th game for Byron this weekend against Murwillumbah at home. The game will start at the Byron ground at 2.30pm.

Byron fishers bag FNC win

Col Fraser

Clear sunny skies, a moderate swell and offshore breezes greeted fishers in last weekends second out of three Far North Coast fishing competitions. Byron Bay’s number one team overhauled Lismore, the winner of the first competition and now head into the final round in August with roughly a 220 point lead. Though fish were difficult to locate in the early evening, most competitors had caught a

few by morning. The legendary Hoss McGrath of Byron Bay earned the heaviest bag, while Col Fraser caught a bragging size dart of 820 grams. The final round will be held on August 22. Don’t forget the monthly meeting is on this Sunday at the Services Club, 10am. Video Pete

Brian Mollet

It is the Byron Shire world cup, but the selection process is a little less stringent, and the poor aren’t outside the ground starving. Sunday’s action in the Nick Shand cricket series saw trophy holders the Byron FullTossers take on Main Arm, six time champs and the team that proves the adage ‘you don’t have to be a nice guy to win’. Lomath Oval gleamed like a brand new pair of volleys as Bourkey and Brian took guard for Main Arm. Jan and Alex were digging and probing around the off stump like a couple of echidnas on a termite mound and the Tossers looked better drilled than a BHP deep oil rig. Bourkey worked the field for singles like Tiger Woods but fell trying to thump a short one from Alex. Byron have more spinners than the St John’s tent at Mardi Grass, Neil and Eddie both had success and like good Tossers, used the wrist effectively. Brian whacked one over square leg but when Tim and Wayne upped the pace, he popped his head back in like a distressed turtle. Stewie and Greg-O both hung around with Brian to see honours shared at 3-57 at drinks. Jeff took up the ball and started going through the batting like Christiano Ronaldo goes through supermodels. His first scalp was skipper Greg and he followed up with two more in a row to snare a stunning hattrick, and his own place in the Nick Shand invisible archives. James and Ed averted a rout Third quarter

and scrambled some valuable runs at the finish with top scorer Brian, 37, who once again showed that talent is one of his many faults, seeing the Armers to a lean looking 114 at the close. Byron’s tactics were sensible in the chase, Christian and Neil seeing off James’ lively mediums and Brian’s ‘wonder wobblers’. Christian began to cut loose, punishing anything like a Franciscan Monk in a medieval boarding school. His retirement made the game safe for Byron despite some wickets from the spirited Bourke boys, and Wayne, Jeff and Tim cleaned up the scraps with a full ten overs to spare. Next week the Left Bankers play and cricket, like the referees in the world cup, is sure to be the winner.

ABS Dwelling Commencements (housing starts) posted a modest increase in the March 2010 quarter, said the Housing Industry Association (HIA). HIA chief economist Dr Harley Dale said that total housing starts increased by 4.3 per cent in the first quarter of 2010 to an annualised level of nearly 170,000. HIA’s forecast was for a four per cent rise. ‘There was a strong burst in “Other Dwelling” starts in the March 2010 quarter, a result no doubt aided by the Federal Government’s Social Housing Initiative,’ said Dr Dale.

While the foregoing sounds like good news, when balanced against total housing shortages, a different picture emerges. Elsewhere HIA has warned that on current building trends, Australia’s housing shortage will increase to 466,000 over the next decade and that we need to ensure that there are adequate amounts of land out there to build homes on combined with tax incentives to ensure a recovery in home building.

Home buyers should ask for balcony building permits and current safety check, says Archicentre Vendors and real estate agents should avoid the risk of unwittingly selling or renting a home with an unsafe balcony which could collapse, killing or injuring people, by having scheduled maintenance checks. Angus Kell, ACT and NSW state manager of Archicentre, said people buying properties with large decks, or high balconies, especially in coastal areas, should request a copy of the

building permit for the structure and an independent current assessment of its safety by a registered inspector from a reputable organisation. Mr Kell said it is important people purchasing homes have access to appropriate building permits to gain an understanding of when the deck was built and approved by the local council. Archicentre’s pre-purchase home inspection statistics show that about six per cent of Australian homes have a timber balcony or deck and that about two per cent of these (8,000) are potentially fatal. Following a recent balcony collapse in NSW, where twelve teenagers were injured, Mr Kell said selling a house with an unsafe balcony could be compared to selling a car with no brakes. ‘The potential for multiple lawsuits against agents and vendors of homes

sold with illegally built or unsafe balconies is a very real issue given the fact that many of the collapses can happen with large numbers of people on the deck. ‘Anyone who purchases a home with a balcony that is in disrepair and which collapses injuring people or themselves could find themselves in no man’s land with insurance claims as they are responsible for maintaining their home in good order.’ Mr Kell said in the last few years, balcony collapses in several states have resulted in a number of injuries and deaths with coastal properties

in the high risk categories because of the harsh environment and salt damage to metal fittings. ‘As a safety measure, all homeowners should thoroughly check the timbers, fixings and structure that support and attach the deck to the home, and check the bracing members and support beams of the deck, timber posts and steel columns looking for soft, spongy sections of compressed timber and rusting steel. ‘If people find faults they should take immediate action to repair them and if they are not sure to seek professional advice.’

The Byron Shire Echo June 22, 2010 59

Backlash Understatement of the week goes to the note in the Council planning report on the state government deeming lands at West Byron as of state significance: ‘Of a preliminary concern was a statement by one planner representing some land owners “...that Councillors would be written to individually, and that Council, as a body, might not be consulted regarding the concept, layout and design outcomes for the site”’. Talk about cheek. The bigger problem with dealing with councillors individually is that you end up with an ICAC investigation, as happened with property developer Paul McMahon’s dealings at West Byron in the 1990s. Councillors will consider the report this week, if they get to it in their agenda. Q Q Q Q

Local web design company DNA Digital has compiled a Byron Bay Twitter Directory for all the twitter accounts it could identify as being local. ‘The idea is to encourage crosstalk and exposure between all our local twitterers,’ says DNA. You can find the directory at www.dnadigital.com.au. Now maybe our local councillors could have a Twitter debate following the example of our state pollies. It would probably be better attended than a RL (Real Life) council meeting. Q Q Q Q

The American group ‘Hands Across the Sands’ website is at www.handsacrossthesand. com. Its local supporters are hoping folks will show up in numbers on Saturday June 26 at Main Beach, Byron Bay, to join hands for 15 minutes at midday, forming lines in the sand against oil drilling in coastal waters.

Don’t cross the border to the north and swear – it could cost you a $100 on the spot fine. That’s Queensland’s response to the Palm Island inquiry which blasted the police. Mandy Nolan gives you a rundown on the dangers in her effin Wash Your Mouth Out With Soap Box. She suggests rewards for more inventive swearing, or you could resort to obscure Shakespearean oaths – ‘By Jupiter’s hirsute cod’, for example – which will give the wallopers something to think about.
