Optus tower opposition grows Eve Jeffery

Residents adjacent to the lookout at Ocean Shores have begun to voice their opposition to a proposed Optus Tower destined for the site.

Homes in the vicinity recently received letters from the council informing them that the tower would replace the 25 metre pole currently on the site and that the existing blackspot equipment would be transferred to the new Optus monopole.

Byron Shire Council’s executive manager of planning Ray Darney said the proposed Optus telecommunication tower would replace the existing pole with one 30 metres in height and it would be located approximately 60 metres from the nearest residence.

Health risk and aesthetics concerns

radiation emitted from these types of towers could be genotoxic. This tower is too close to where people are living, it is a serious health concern.’ Another concern Tina has is for the aesthetics of the site. She says that the tower would be five metres taller than the current tower and would have several large ‘branches’ attached to it, similar to the one on Mudges Road in Ocean Shores.‘This lookout is a tourist attraction. The new tower will be an eyesore that will be seen from as far away as Byron Bay.’ Council does not currently have a lease arrangement with Optus for the site at Warrambool Road. Mr Darney said the application will be determined on merit and reported to Council for consideration before any lease arrangements are negotiated with Optus. Council has an existing ten-year licence with Broadcast Australia Pty Ltd (SBS) at the site, which generates $2,000 per annum.

Mrs Beattie says she intends to present council with a petition when the matter becomes before them.

For anyone wishing to view the plan, the development application is on exhibition until Wednesday October 6.

Tina Beattie lives directly below the current tower which is where the proposed replacement will also be installed. Her foremost fear is the health Members of the Arakwal Corporation have asked Uncle Harry to leave the campsite next to Council chambers in risks created by radiation emitted from Mullumbimby. He and his supporters occupied the site from September 3 until last Monday. the tower. ‘My major concern is for our health,’ ‘I am confused as to who is here for ‘We are the people of this land.

Sun breaks through for young lives lost Around five hundred people attended the memorial service of Jarah Blackett at the Byron Bay YAC last Thursday morning.

Just over a week ago, Jarah, 23, and mates Todd Hepner and Byron Nicholson were tragically killed in a car crash at the junction of the Pacific Highway and Woodford Lane.

Crowds covered the grassy banks outside the YAC, and thankfully the clouds broke for the first sunny day in a week.

Others queued up at the empty coffin in order to inscribe its lid with messages.

Flags and flares fluttered in the light breeze. The service, a celebration of Jarah’s life, took place inside the hall where a slide-show was presented.

The funeral services for Todd Hepner and Byron Nicholson were held privately. continued from page 1

Ms Kay said that, as spokesperson for the Arakwal corporation, she was advising him that he was not authorised to stay in the park or to speak on behalf of the Arakwal or Bundjalung or any Indigenous people in the area and he was not authorised to stay in the park.

Uncle Harry said he was there in a demonstration against Woolworths and for the betterment of all people.

When asked what he thought about the Arakwal and Bundjalung, Uncle Harry said, ‘They

Council’s executive manager of community infrastructure, Phil Holloway, told The Echo Council had endorsed the closure of the Woodford Lane access and made the request to the RTA in 2007.

When The Echo asked the RTA whether they would close the road, a spokesperson responded that they are investigating whether the closure would improve road safety.

The RTA said it is not aware of any complaints about the safety of the intersection.

A spokesperson for the Minister For Roads, David Borger, told The Echo, ‘Without wanting to pre-empt the findings of the police investigation, the Minister has asked the RTA to review this section of road to determine if road safety improvements can be made to further enhance road safety.’ don’t exist to me.’

Arakwal man Brian Kelly asked Uncle Harry if he would face the Budjalung elders’ council with his opinions and Uncle Harry said he would.

He said that the elders were welcome to visit him whenever they wished, which evoked uproar from the Arakwals who said that it was not for the elders to visit Harry but the other way around.

They added by saying his lack of knowledge and respect for tribal lore is another reason he should not be on Arakwal land.

Late last week the Byron Shire Council issued an order to the group to cease using the land as a camping ground.

Stan Robinson Park is owned

by Byron Shire Council and under the Local Government Act is designated as operational land; it is not Crown Land.

Council’s general manager Graeme Faulkner said the order required the group to remove all temporary structures from the area.

He said the protest group had originally told Council they would be protesting for 72 hours over the issue of Woolworths coming to Mullumbimby.

‘While the protesters have been peaceful during this time, the 72 hours has been surpassed and the group has given no further indication of when the protest will end,’ said Mr Faulkner.

‘Council did not support the Woolworths development application nor was it involved in the sale of the land.’

Police visited the site early on Friday to request that the group abide by the eviction notice and vacate the site as soon as possible.

Mr Faulkner said that Council had concerns over hygiene amenities and safety with cars coming and going from the park. ‘There have also been numerous complaints from the community over the use of the park as a camp site,’ he said.

According to the campers, they had been the target of attacks recently with children sleeping in one of the vehicles being terrorised by men wearing balaclavas and one man receiving an injury to his head in what they say was a barrage of attacks over a two-day period last week. Members of the group say they felt they were being assaulted and that police were ignoring their plight.

Waves of coastal unrest roll on Michael McDonald

Now the independents have given government to Labor, we are told regional issues are on the radar.

This seems to consist chiefly of farming and broadband concerns, but the other problem the feds will have to come to grips with is coastal management. And despite preliminary reports, the federal Department of Climate Change (www. climatechange.gov.au) still has a way to go on planning.

The ABC TV program The 7.30 Report highlighted the coastal controversy last week when it told the story of the Strini family’s loss of a development opportunity because of climate change fears. The Strinis wanted to build eight beachside townhouses at Lakes Entrance in Victoria and had approval from the local council and the catchment management authority.

Startling precedent Then an objection was lodged with the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT), which is a bit like the NSW Land and Environment Court but covers a broader range of issues.

VCAT overturned the approval, citing dangers of inundation in rising sea levels. It

sets a startling precedent for the coastline, and apparently the Strinis have no chance of compensation, despite allegedly spending $600,000 on interest payments, planning costs and legal fees.

A federal government report, ‘Climate Change Risks to Australia’s Coast’, last year identified ‘between 157,000 and 247,600 existing residential buildings at risk of inundation with a sealevel rise of 1.1 metres.

‘This analysis included storm tide estimates (for a 1-in-100 year event) for New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania and a high tide event for others.’

Since then, the NSW government has adopted coastal management plans – see www. environment.nsw.gov.au/ coasts/coastalerosionmgmt. htm – along with putting up the

Coastal Protection and Other Legislation Amendment Bill which ‘includes amendments to the Local Government Act to allow councils to levy an annual coastal protection service charge outside rate pegging.

Councils would be required to levy this charge on landowners for long-term coastal protection works (eg seawalls), where the works were constructed by the landowners.’

Last Thursday the Local Government and Shires Associations of NSW ‘conditionally welcomed’ changes to the Coastal Protection and Other Legislation Amendment Bill, but said a more proactive and long-term strategy is needed to deal with coastal erosion.

Association president Cr Genia McCaffery said, ‘The Coastal Panel now has three

How to Live? How to Die?

representatives from Local Government, and its charter now gives it the potential to assist councils in addressing complex, contentious coastal planning issues.

The early draft of the Bill gave landowners an unfettered right to repeatedly protect their own properties, with no consideration of the longer-tem effects or impacts on their neighbours.’

In May this year Byron Shire Council resolved to adopt its controversial Draft Coastal Zone Management Plan. According to Council, the plan attracted 654 submissions from 622 people.

How Council’s plan and the state government Bill will mesh is uncertain. It remains to be seen if the interests of residents, environmental protection and infrastructure can be satisfied at all.

As with the Strinis’ experience, the answers most likely lie with the courts’ interpretation of coastal legislation.

In NSW, class 4 actions in the Land and Environment Court to planning approvals in possible inundation areas could be on the cards, and it’s not likely to be a pretty sight.

Developers, councils and residents would all like certainty but in the realm of climate change, certainty is not necessarily an option.

A story from a past client My mother Netta had been in and out of hospital; her last visit was three months before she died.

Whilst in hospital she said to me “I never want to have to be in a hospital again”. I looked at her and answered “OK, you will never have to be”.

This was a huge step into the unknown and I had no real knowledge of what I was taking on, but I felt like it would somehow work out. At that moment, something changed in Netta – a fear, a holding on was let go and she felt safe to surrender to the next stage.

1950s-1970s original clothing

Entry by gold coin donation to Friends of the Koala

The practicalities of keeping that commitment to Netta meant that her doctor had to be on board with this decision and then Byron Hospice Service (then ‘Amitayus’), Feros Home Care and Feros Village in Byron Bay and the community nurses, who were all willing to get involved and help.

We moved my mother into our granny flat as her condition weakened. Having help from the Byron Hospice Service was very important for our family, giving us short breaks and support, knowing that someone was there to sit with Netta and talk with her, or simply just be there.

It’s been three and a half years since my mother died peacefully and I still feel a very deep bond with the volunteers from Byron Hospice Service who assisted my mother to die in peace, with grace and dignity.

Another missile into the political discourse David Lovejoy

Author Craig McGregor congratulates Mungo on his new book Photo Jeff Dawson

It started as the election nobody cared about and finished as a fascinating cliffhanger.

In the process we learned a lot about how our constitution works when a minority government is on the cards.

Mungo MacCallum’s Punch & Judy: the Double Disillusion Election 2010 takes us through the campaign and its aftermath with the author’s customary wit and readability.

This is the third ‘instant’ election book from Mungo, following Run, Johnny, Run (2004) and Poll Dancing (2007). ‘Instant’ implies no lowering of the author’s high standards, but rather the impressively swift publication of these books, once the result of the vote is known.

In the case of Punch & Judy,

the interminable post-election manoeuvring to set up a government upset the finely-tuned printing timetable, but it allowed the account to end on a dramatic note.

At the launch Mungo was quite rightly lauded for a long career in political journalism that has seen him write for every major title in the country.

Less well known nationally but arguably just as impressive are his columns for this newspaper, which have appeared every week (with minimum time off for holidays) for more than two decades.

To write a thousand columns chronicling the ups and downs of political life in Australia while maintaining such a consistent level of humour, insight and tolerance for the system is a quite an achievement.

Motorcycle owners in Byron Bay are losing their local bike workshop.

Byron Motorcycle Centre proprietor and bike mechanic Owen Fudge will close his business of three years on Friday due to a recurring leg injury that has affected his ability to work.

‘I’m planning to get my body fixed and become a domestic engineer, a house dad,’ he said.

‘People are going to have to go elsewhere to get their bikes serviced.’

With no potential buyer to step in and take over the business, Fudge says his only option is to close his store before he goes broke.

Fudge, who moved from Katherine in the Northern Territory to the Byron Shire five years ago, said the ‘ridiculously high’ overheads in Byron Bay mean his business is not viable unless he can work at full capacity.

He says the closure of his business is a sad sign of the times for the town.

‘Byron has lost another service and you can’t keep losing

services like this,’ he said. ‘This business could have survived if I had it running in Alstonville or something. I could have kept it alive.’

While he praises his landlords as ‘gentlemen’, Fudge says many others need to take a hard look at what rapidly rising commercial and industrial rents are doing to Byron Bay. ‘It’s a hard place to do business… the landlords are killing the place,’ he said. ‘Landlords

should look at the future of the town and say we need services here to keep people here.’

Byron Bay does have one other motorcycle workshop, Desmo Headquarters, but it specialises in repairing Ducati motorcycles.

Its owner, Arthur Davis, told The Echo he would not be able to service Fudge’s customer base.

‘We’re just a specialist Ducati shop. Ducatis are all I’ve ever

worked on,’ he said.

Fudge says he hasn’t ruled out reopening his business once he is well.

First, however, he’ll be having a knee reconstruction, spending some time with his kids and, curiously enough, studying to become an explosives expert in the mining industry.

‘I might like to get a job with the other passion in my life: blowing things up,’ he said.

Asbestos delays Bruns library Council has advised that the Brunswick Heads Branch Library will be closed for a further four weeks until Monday October 18.

The planned renovations are needed to be extended due to asbestos being found in the ceiling, Council’s property manager Trish Kirkland said.

Two Byron Bay Cubs were presented with Grey Wolf Awards recently, the highest achievement for a Cub Scout in Australia.

Aidan Rajarantnam, ten and a half, and Eliza Gudgeon, eleven, were required to demonstrate such qualities as leadership, organisation, helping others and responsibility in order to qualify.

Since the Award was introduced in 2005, the first Byron Bay Cub Pack has had seven cubs awarded a Grey Wolf.

Asked what might account for such a record, Cub Leader Bryony Pearson told The Echo, ‘It’s really only in the last couple of years that we’ve had a group of cubs who have really been working toward

those Awards.’

She said that it took Aidan and Eliza one and half years to work toward their Grey Wolf Awards.

Bryony, who has been Cub Leader for the last four years, says she loves being in the Cubs.

‘I love the cubs and scouts, combining leadership with helping others and learning new skills.

‘Some cubs just come for the games then you find other cubs who love the badgework.

‘There’s really something for everyone. I’ve been involved as a leader for four years and I learn every day. And we have a lot of fun!’

The Grey Wolf Awards were presented at a Family Hot Pot night at the Scout Hall.

The scheduled $37,000 renovation included the building being painted and minor repair work.

The upgraded has been funded under the Federal Government’s second round Regional and Local Community Infrastructure Program.

Items can be returned to the Mullumbimby, Byron Bay or any other branch of the Richmond Tweed Regional Library Network.

Youth Art project open Byron Shire’s youth are invited to enter artworks into the Youth Mural Art Project, a competition that aims to promote up and coming young artists.

The project offers a positive graffiti management solution with winning art pieces being showcased on a variety of Council buildings and structures in the Shire.

‘It’s a great way to get your work seen and to also liven up the landscape with art,’ Angeline Daniels from the Youth Council said.

‘The art focus offers young people a constructive outlet for their creative talents.’

The winning designs will also be made into a set of postcards to further promote young artists.

Workshops will run in the school holidays to offer assistance and support at Mullumbimby Train Station on Wednesday October 6 and at Brunswick Scout Hall on Thursday October 7.

Prizes include digital cameras, iPods and art supply vouchers.

All entries need to be submitted by October 10 and an exhibition of works will be held during National Water Week October 17 to 23.

The project is a joint Council initiative between Council divisions Community Infrastructure, Society and Culture, and Water and Recycling.

Lighthouse run for cancer research Every day in Australia 38 women are diagnosed with the disease; one in nine women at some stage of their lives will contract it.

Excercise helps reducing recurrence

Victoria Cosford

Cancer sufferers who undergo daily exercise have a survival rate which is nothing short of impressive.

This result, according to Barb Pinter from the Byron Bay Breast Cancer Support Group (BBBCSG), is based on an 18-year Harvard study – and given the group’s involvement in the impending Byron Lighthouse Run, serves as a timely reminder of the ben-

efits of exercise.

The annual run, hosted by fitness coach and personal trainer Lisa Parkes, will take place on Sunday October 21 – and this will be the third year in which the BBBCSG has been involved.

‘Back in 2008 we held a stall, an information table, at the start/finish line near the peace pole’, Barb told The Echo. ‘This time we’ll be participating as a group with a banner, to raise awareness of breast cancer.’

‘Early detection and preventative measures are really being pushed now’, Barb said, ‘This is what brings us into the Lighthouse Run in a really positive way. Oncologists are pushing the exercise factor as well. For people who’ve been diagnosed, it’s really important to start exercising – to reduce your chances of a recurrence.’

The actual Run raises funds for various charities, including the BBBCSG, and, said Barb, ‘you can wander along at your own pace! It’s such an uplifting, gorgeous walk and so beneficial in raising your level of fitness.’

BBBCSG is extremely energetic in its efforts at raising

Buttery receives high level accreditation Hans Lovejoy

Paul Kelly’s song ‘To her door’ pays homage to The Buttery, and this week the Australian Council on Health Care Standards (ACHS) also sang the praise of this worthy institution.

‘Being awarded accreditation by ACHS gives funding bodies and the community continued confidence in the high standards of service and delivery the Buttery provides,’ Buttery executive director Barry Evans told The Echo.

Since 1975 The Buttery in Bangalow has been building steadily on its reputation as one of the leading drug and alcohol rehabilitation centres of its kind in the world.

‘We offer a therapeutic community,’ says Mr Evans, ‘residents and staff work together as a community. It’s different www.echo.net.au

from a rehab centre in that everyone helps each other. It’s a service worthy of support both morally and financially.’

Mr Evans claims 66 communities around Australia and New Zealand apply their own interpretation of the same model.

The Buttery recently participated in the auditing process that is a prelude to accreditation from the ACHS. The accreditation would place The Buttery among Australia’s leading healthcare providers, according to Mr Evans. Other ACHS accredited organisations include Sydney’s St Vincent’s Private Hospital and Melbourne’s Peter McCallum Cancer Centre.

‘Funding for the Buttery is around 55-60 per cent from the State government,’ says Mr Evans, ‘while the bulk of the rest comes from the residents in treatment. The pro-

gram can run up to seven and a half months, and 70 per cent contacted after leaving the program reported being drug and alcohol free and/or demonstrated improvements.’

Over two days, ACHS assessors rigorously reviewed the therapeutic program, management protocols and amenities at the Buttery. At the end the assessors gave a favourable report and it is anticipated that formal accreditation will be given in early 2011 after the next ACHS Board Meeting.

‘The Buttery exists to serve people who have made the decision to choose a life of recovery over a life of addiction. It is a tribute to staff, volunteers and supporters that the Buttery can rightly claim to be among the leading healthcare providers in this field in Australia.’

awareness of breast cancer and has a program leading up to the Lighthouse Run called Pink October 2010 in Byron.

The program includes a Breast Cancer Day event on Saturday October 9, to be held at Railway Park (with Balinese chakra healing ceremony, Moment of Silence and free Zumba class); raffle draw on Friday October 15 of the beautiful Alexandra Spyratos zebra painting to be drawn by Mayor Jan Barham; and a World of Women short film festival at the Byron Community and Cultural Centre over the weekend of Saturday October 30.

In addition, IGA at Sunrise has been very supportive of the group. ‘They have put us in their Community Chest for October, so for every $30 you spend you are given a token (which) converts into the much-needed funds for our group’, said Barb.

Thwarting the Mallams myth

For the sake of a few cheaper products – and even that is questionable judging by prices at Woolworths in the Bay – some people are looking forward to the opening of the Mullumbimby store.

Well, The Echo does not. Mullumbimby was prosperous before Woolies decided to move in, and if it continues to prosper it will be in spite of the new supermarket. Let’s also keep a sense of perspective: undergarments may upset some delicate sensibilities, but the fence they adorn is a giant symbol of corporate colonisation, a colonisation which is now inevitably part of Mullumbimby’s future.

pendents insisted that both sides of politics sign the agreement before indicating which of them would have their support was precisely to prevent this happening; to lock both government and opposition into the reform process, to make it genuinely bipartisan.

It was always obvious that the provision for pairing the speaker would give the government an advantage, but this was more than adequately

thus making pairing impossible. But the original idea was perfectly sound: although the opposition started by suggesting it would breach the Constitution, the Solicitor-General was adamant that it would not; if the parties chose to come to an agreement, it would be perfectly okay.

Ah, said Tony Abbott, so it would only be an informal arrangement, not written into the legislation; oh dear no, we

Abbott has now made it clear that his lust for power is absolute; he will stop at nothing.

by Mungo MacCallum countered by other provisions which favoured the opposition and the backbenchers.

Overall the package was both sensible and balanced.

And of course Abbott has said he will definitely stick with the rest of it – the bits that give him an edge. But on the speakership, the government is on its own.

The proposal by Rob Oakeshott is simple enough: the speaker does not have a deliberative vote, so by appointing one of its own as speaker, as is the convention, the government effectively loses one of its numbers, which in a parliament as tight as the present one can be crucial. The idea was that the opposition should therefore appoint the deputy speaker, who would also forfeit his vote, thereby evening things up.

Oakeshott then confused things by nominating himself for the job, which was unworkable: as an independent his vote could go with either side,

couldn’t have that. Matters of governance are far too important to be left to an informal arrangement. So all bets are off.

But wait a minute. Like many other conventions of government the entire system of pairing, which has been in existence since federation, is an informal arrangement. It is simply a fair and practical means of ensuring that the numbers in the House, which are determined by the electorate, remain unaffected when members – either government or opposition – are unavoidably absent.

The proposal to extend the arrangement to include the speaker may be an innovation, but it is hardly revolutionary.

If Abbott is serious, he must be prepared to abolish the idea of pairing altogether – and in fact, that seems to be precisely the situation.

The new opposition whip, Warren Entsch, says from now on even ministers making overseas trips will not be auto-

matically paired. He will have to be satisfied that the trip is on official business and in the national interest: ‘I guess every case will be treated on its merits, and in any case there is a lot of time when the parliament is not sitting.’

True; so will the rest of the world please rearrange things so as to make sure events and meetings that could involve Julia Gillard, Kevin Rudd, Wayne Swan, Stephen Smith and the rest of them only take place while the Australian parliament is in recess.

And as for backbenchers, well, forget it. In the past they have asked for pairs for all sorts of reasons, but now only crises such as serious illness, bereavement or childbirth (women only) will qualify. Or that’s the current line from Tony Abbott’s ferocious opposition.

In the end it is likely that commonsense will prevail; after all, to have the place run with a modicum of civilisation and decency is as much in the interests of most opposition members as those of the government. But Abbott has now made it clear that his lust for power is absolute; he will stop at nothing.

And he is inviting equally brutal payback. Labor’s unedifying attempt to bribe Alex Somlyay with the deputy speakership in exchange for the same guarantee as has been given by the independents – no support for votes of no confidence or to deny supply – ended in tears after Abbott’s enforcers paid him a visit.

But by throwing the rule book out of the window, Abbott has indeed ushered in a new paradigm, which he may live to regret.

By the way, paradigm is an anagram of pig drama. In this context, it seems entirely appropriate.

Rezoning challenges at West Byron The Byron Bay West Landowners Association (BBWLA) has commenced planning for the 100 hectare West Byron Urban Release Area. The land is subject to a State Significant Site Study under the auspices of the Department of Planning and Part 3A of the EP&A Act. The landowners state in their July 2010 newsletter that this ‘... will result in the land being rezoned. In the current or future political environment it is unlikely to be refused.’

The Byron Shire community must clearly get involved to ensure the landowners adhere to the five principles they intend following in planning and developing their land. Four of the principles are ‘motherhood statements’ that may provide some comfort that economic, social and environmental sustainability and urban design innovation issues are to be considered.

The fifth provides an escape if the landowners believe market and commercial considerations outweigh sustainability and innovation or both are beyond their expertise.

Environmental constraints

will have a significant bearing but, using urban density targets mandated by the Department of Planning, a 100 hectare site could be required to yield 1,500 dwellings. At roughly $50,000 per lot, the $50 to $70 million in subdivision construction costs quoted in the Background Report could suggest the landowners are already thinking of a yield in the order of 1,000 to 1,400 dwellings. Clearly the impact of such a development will be substantial.

If rezoning is accepted as a fait accompli, transparency of process is a fundamental requirement.

Two issues immediately come to mind. Firstly, it is important that the community knows who the landowners are, the size of their respective holdings, and how they see themselves working together.

Secondly, the community needs to know who is on the consultant team.

Knowing who the landowners are might give the community confidence. More than lip service will be paid to the planning and development prin-

ciples. For example, if professional developers are involved in the Association do they have a track record for innovation and quality or have their previous projects simply replicated development models that have long since reached their use by date.

Even in the most benign circumstances multiple landowner developments are notoriously difficult to manage.

Combining different levels of landowner expertise, financial capability and land size with physical constraints and contemporary planning and urban design objectives make the achievement of even a barely satisfactory outcome a major challenge.

The Byron West site and the landowners must, however, transcend these challenges as the community will have to live with the outcome. This could be helped by a formal planning and development agreement between the landowners, the Department of Planning and Council. Planning agreements are now common, even mandated by the Department and local councils, in Sydney. Such

an agreement must be in place before the Site Study is completed and its content must be developed in consultation with the community.

The consultants involved in Site Studies under Part 3A are paid by the landowners, not the Department of Planning.

They therefore have an immediate conflict of interest. A recent court case dealing with the professional obligations of consultants to the community and be Acts under which they operate should be a salutary warning to all the consultants involved in Byron West. And are the planning and urban design consultant members right up to date with recent innovations and thinking?

Even at this early stage the challenges presented to the Byron Shire community are evident. Byron West could be an example of development for the 21st century or it could be an unmitigated disaster. Let’s hope the landowners fulfil their promise to recognise the existing and future needs and aspirations of the community.

More on Woolies

the calculations on the back of an envelope you could work that out.)

2. Depreciation is a non-cash item and is not related to the market. (That is trickier but could be worked out if you, say, Google searched.)

3. The BBCA is both a charitable institution and a not for profit organisation. DSS makes the Association’s accounts seem like such a secretive and mysterious journey. They just ain’t. Maybe he could call Paul Spooner and arrange to properly meet the accounts.

It could be that ShipleySmith’s view is tainted by the ‘old’ view of the Byron Community Centre. The Community Centre has moved rapidly forward in the last few years.

In my view, and this is just my view, we should celebrate the wonderful efforts of Paul Spooner, staff and our amazing volunteers for what they do to assist our community.

Our Community Centre assists over 500 people in need a week through social programs such as Emergency Relief, Homeless Drop-in, Food Bank, No Interest Loans Scheme, Community Information and Referral etc. This is done without recurring State or Council monies. Money and time are always issues at not for profits like our community centre, but I do regret that we haven’t properly informed people like Shipley-Smith of the ‘new’ community centre.

I am sure this letter will be

like a red rag to a bull, and Duncan Shipley-Smith will write back with some negative inaccurate dribble. Before he does that, I hope he takes the time to actually consider what contribution his letters actually make to our community, and then compares his community contribution to the actual work done by the staff and volunteers at the Byron Community Centre.

Quality of government

To the people that don’t want Woolworths in Mullumbimby, it is simple: don’t shop there or move.

The silent majority welcomes Woolworths. I am sure if they were to place something on the fences it would be caps or hats, as that is what covers their brains.

The mentality of people hanging undies is quite worrying. I would also like Council to clean up the part next to the Council buildings. I support a clean and tidy town.

Community work One of the the byproducts (or refuse) of a free and open press are letters like those written by Duncan Shipley-Smith (Echo, September 21). In case we were getting tired of his views on the situation in the middle east, Shipley-Smith thinks it best to mix it up by having a go at Paul Spooner and the team at the Byron Community Centre.

I wonder whether factually DSS’s letters are always so inaccurate?

Fatal design For years I was waiting for this accident in Ewingsdale (and hoping for it not) to happen.

How crazy is it to have a virtual intersection on a dual carriage highway! And that without reduced speed limit!

The RTA has to take some, if not most of the responsibility. Streets and roads have to be designed in a way that they are also safe to use for L- and P-platers.

Unfortunately the RTA has a literally bloody history on the north coast and has generally only (if at all) learned after fatal crashes.

Most of us will remember the ones at St Helena, the first Brunswick bypass, or the Burringbar Ranges, where about ten years ago 13 people died within a few months. The list could be extended.

The Byron Market is a local enterprise, featuring wonderful products from creative, hardworking artisans, who also are trying to make a living and are dependent on our support. The market reflects the community spirit that makes this region so special.

Byron United is in favour of amplified busking in the CBD of Byron, and shows no regard for the residents who are weary of the noisy fallout from such ‘party town’ activities.

Suffolk Park I have lived in this (Byron Bay) area for over 25 years and watched this little coastal village since 1972 self destruct into a polluting, boozing, drug taking, little shithole of a town.

The council has in no way attempted to prevent this, past nor present. The whole area, industrial and township, drain into a marine park 24/7 all year round. The town is not a family town, nor user friendly or safe to walk at night. The garbage bins are dangerous to use, the police are hard pressed to patrol, and why should they? Not too many people are prepared to work on any of the above problems, least of all the inept council.

I am on the water most days, at Watego’s Beach, and spend around two hours picking up garbage per week. The pippis are back on that beach after five years of sewage overflow. How fast was that repair work by the council? The locals have to sort this out.

Truth needed I did not know Jai Morcom and I don’t know Steve Drummond

it be on the issue of holiday letting, bi-monthly markets or amplified busking, is driven always by the buck, not true community interest. In its desperate pursuit of the tourist dollar (which increasingly degrades our town), Byron United forgets that it is the local community that gives year round, consistent support to local businesses and contributes significantly, through not inconsiderable rates, to the infrastructure and functioning of this town. In return, we ask that our right to peaceful enjoyment of our community be respected.

Louise Andrews

Byron Bay Q ‘We

can no longer rely on our reputation,’ says Sevegne but what I do know is strong kids have been bullying weak kids since Cain and Abel.

The school’s ‘Jai who?’ attitude is so wicked. I find it sickening, and everyone who knows exactly what happened and has said nothing will have to live with their guilt all their life. Maybe when some of the pupils who were there have a child ‘collapse’ at school they will just say ‘pretend it didn’t happen’.

I think the community deserves the truth but my 64 years of living has taught me it’s the lie that most people love.

Sleepers awake ‘Anything that ends wars, unwinnable or not, is in humanity’s ultimate interest.’ Is this assertion by Acting Editor Hans Lovejoy in his editorial last week debatable?

Or – given the irrefutable human and environmental devastation of war couterposed by the ‘best-estimate-projection’ that a mere seven per cent of the global military budget would enable fulfilment of the UN’s fantastic Millennium Development Goals (eradicating extreme poverty, ensuring sustainability, protecting bio-diversity, etc) – is Lovejoy’s assertion irrefutable?

And now, as the US-NATOIsrael alliance clamours for war against Iran (as usual, on false pretexts), threatening the world with the unconscionable spectre of WWIII – a war poised

to be fought under the Pentagon’s space command and using the vast arsenal of nuclear, electrometric and environmental modification weaponry deployed world-wide – it is clear that only an informed and vocal global civil society would or could avert this world-destroying disaster and safeguard ‘humanity’s ultimate interest’.

Mainstream media are deeply engaged in trivialising the threat of nuclear war and repeating the lies and deceptions that manufacture public consent and participation in the illegal invasions and occupations of the sovereign countries targeted in the ‘Pentagon’s Unending War’. To ascertain the truth, we must look to alternative sources. I highly recommend the writings of Professor Emeritus Michel Chossudovsky (www.globalresearch.ca) for a harrowing analysis of the global military agenda and the ‘advanced state of readiness’ of the US-NATO-Israel alliance to attack Iran.

Here’s hoping for humanity’s empowerment and the awakening of conscience.

Busking in the Bay What that gentleman who wrote in your last edition about music in our streets and parks late at night needs to understand is that not many of our local councillors are members of that club known as Club Sensible. Even though the only prerequisite to join Club Sensible is to have some basic intelligence, and an understanding of how things work. It would appear that the councillors in favour of this late night rubbish are members of an alternative club, a club better known as Club Ridiculous.

I think the only way to understand the councillors’ plan to have the noisy type buskers controlling activities on our streets and in our dark parks very late at night is that it is a plan concocted by these members of Club Ridiculous. This reckless busking trial as highlighted in a recent edition of this paper, particularly in the summer months, will definitely result in an increase in late night drunken parties in our

‘Come to Byron Bay and buy the same stuff you can get anywhere else, but we’re more expensive!’ Look, a unique cultural community drew visitors, then got bought out and pushed out. So now we have battered remnants and a beach.

Having killed and eaten the goose that laid the golden eggs, now what? Spin spin spin. Interesting? Different? Lively?

Fun? Original? Just words in the ad campaign, to be accompanied by the sound of the bottom of a barrel being scraped. Actually, the situation could be reversed, but the same profiteers would suck out the culture’s life and eat its corpse all over again.

Newton. That’s right. Because it’s pretty lousy. Now we have to bullshit people to get them to come here.

Just what is our current reputation? ‘A nice place once, that Byron Bay.’ The reputation that built the place into a vibrant hub from being a declining ex-industrial town? ‘A lively fun place full of happy, carefree people, everyone smiling, lots of music and street art, no chain stores, not like anywhere else, spiritual, beautiful.’

Reputation? Actually, that was reality. Reputation now? ‘Overdeveloped, unfriendly, expensive, and night belongs to the drunks.’

Hey, it’s today’s reality. Overpriced, unfriendly, boring, soulless tourist trap. Slogan?

Crs respond to pecuniary interest and zoning issues Q Mr. Pugh is entitled to his views (Echo, September 14 and 21) be they accurate or not.

However it’s of concern to see The Echo, who promotes itself as independent, again publishing such defamatory and inflammatory letters without checking to see if they are factual or allowing the accused a counter point in the same space. Rather they rely on the accused to respond at a later date if they can. If they don’t lazy journalism prevails, mud sticks and natural justice goes wanting.

I have consulted widely and am confident I do not have a ‘pecuniary interest’ as alleged

by Mr Pugh. A ‘non pecuniary less than significant interest’ maybe, which when declared still allows one to vote. The difference between the two is significant and goes to the heart of Mr Pugh’s serious allegations.

And ironically for someone who represents an environmental view, writing such alarmist letters to the press alleging pecuniary interests is the worst possible message Mr Pugh could send to the hundreds of property owners who are stewards of native vegetation in our Shire and trying to do the right thing.

A simple question by either Mr Pugh or The Echo would have provided an informed view, which would have reassured landholders, not scared them.

As a Councillor I try to make decisions based on facts, not fear or favour, and this means a lot more homework and time, which within the constraints of local government is frustrating. I’m also focussed on the broader public good, which is considerably under threat by Mr Pugh’s public allegations.

To explain in detail would be

to threaten what many of us are ing including HCV on council and crown land and shorebird trying to achieve.

This was part of a ments as well as measures that series of case studies aimed at I put forward earlier this year. ground truthing Council’s sysRecommendations include tems. Nor is it correct to say that E2 environmental protection this assessment was the basis of zoning for old growth and long the staff recommendation for term flying fox camps. Water E3 zoning of HCV vegetation and biodiversity clauses have in the Draft LEP on land curbeen drafted to protect more rently zoned rural (1a, 1b, 1c). riparian areas and fragmented This was driven by land use isEndangered Ecological Com- sues, particularly an ability to munities (EECs) not previous- continue agricultural uses. For ly mapped as HCV (High Con- the record, my property was not servation Value). Many areas assessed on this basis as Dailan are proposed to retain E2 zon- claims.

Pecuniary interests are a highly relevant issue and Dailan refers to numerous sections of the Local Government Act (LGA) to make his case, but still repeatedly gets it wrong. 1. He misstates the test for a pecuniary interest. 2. He fails to distinguish between a pecuniary and a non-pecuniary interest. 3. A ‘proprietary interest’ on its own is not a pecuniary interest and cannot be the basis of a requirement to take no part in decision making.

For clarity, a pecuniary interest arises where there is a ‘reasonable likelihood or expectation of appreciable financial gain or loss’ (s 442, LGA).

Dailan missed a far more significant point. Eight of nine Councillors are landowners within the Shire. This raises significant questions about how we manage pecuniary interests during development of

our most important planning document.

These questions were discussed at a Strategic Planning Committee (23/9) in response to correspondence from the Department of Local Government advising Councillors to seek exemptions under s458 when considering the Draft LEP. There are practical reasons why this should occur. If pecuniary interests can be said to crystallise during the drafting process or when discussing technical issues, then it is not an unlikely scenario that eight of nine Councillors would have to absent themselves, completely frustrating attempts to move the draft forward. Residents can take heart from the wise decision of Council to defer further consideration of the Draft LEP until applications for exemptions have been determined.

streets and parks, and be attended by many who are drunk and underage and should be at home.

What is being proposed by these Club Ridiculous councillors shows very poor community leadership indeed, and an appalling lack of respect for our community and its people.

Sanctioning free late night entertainment for those who have no respect for our community is a disgrace. Shame on you, Councillors.

es’ faces! Why would you want to stop that joy?

A big part of our audiences often are families (perhaps even guests of yours?), and they always seem really excited to have some form of free entertainment for themselves and the kids outside the pubs.

When we busk we are certainly not ‘unsupervised’. The police are always out and about, checking our licences and making sure everything is calm. They have told us how much of a difference we make to the atmosphere on the street, that we create a happier, safer vibe and that there are less fights and trouble while we play. The mayor herself has even commented on how great the vibe on the street is when the amplified buskers are around, and how much she enjoys the street performances.

General street noise levels can get pretty loud on their own, as anyone who has been in Byron on a busy night knows. Surely upon purchasing your business you took into account the location of what you were buying.

This is Byron Bay after all, one of the most popular and unique places in the world for people to come and enjoy themselves!

It seems your idea of ‘partying’, Mr Gleeson, is other people’s way of describing having fun.

So, instead of going against the grain on this, how about finding ways of working together to achieve an agreeable and optimistic solution? How about we start trying to look at the positives?

der your family and friends through acts of genocide, destroy your house and farm, force you to live under canvas with no fresh water or sanitation; deny you education, hospital access and the right to return to your birthplace.

Imagine this usurper possesses the most advanced weaponry on the planet, is funded and supported by the world’s only superpower and operates with immunity from accepted international law, norms of morality and human decency. Would you resist?

The Indians, South Africans, French, Northern Irish, all rebelled against oppressive colonialism often violently, always relentlessly.

However, the one tool most effective in South Africa was not the gun or the bomb. It was the boycott, divestment and sanction movement now gaining momentum worldwide against Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine. Trade unions in Britain and Australia and the Australian National Council of Churches have joined the boycott. Harvard University has divested. Artists Against Apartheid including Massive Attack and Roger Waters, Israeli actors and professors motivated by conscience and an innate revulsion for injustice are saying no.

While armed resistance from within may be ineffective, economic resistance from without is gaining uncontrollable momentum: http://bdsmovement.net.

truth diet for its consumers ... It does not boast of our achievements: the slain children and the bodies rotting under the ruins, the wounded who bleed to death because our soldiers shoot at the ambulance crews, the little girls whose legs were amputated due to horrible wounds caused by various types of weaponry, the devastated fathers shedding bitter tears, the residential neighborhoods that have been obliterated, the terrible burns caused by white phosphorus, and the mini-transfer – the tens of thousands of people who have been expelled from their homes, and are still being

expelled at this very minute, ordered to cram into a built-up area that is constantly growing smaller and is also under sentence of incessant bombing and shelling ... In the 1990s, Israel had a chance to prove that 1948 is not its paradigm.

But it missed this opportunity.

Instead, it merely perfected its techniques for robbing land and expelling people from their houses, and forced the Palestinians into isolated enclaves. And now, during these dark days, Israel is proving that 1948 never ended.’

Suffolk Park As a musician, busker, fifth generation local to Byron Shire and a personal victim of Gerry Gleeson’s tirade on buskers in Byron, I feel duty-bound to respond to his comments in last week’s letter to the editor. Also, I feel certain that in writing this letter I am speaking on behalf of the greater busking community of the shire.

While I respect your rights to freedom of speech, Mr Gleeson, it saddens me that you feel the need to go to such lengths to destroy something that is a major part of Byron Bay’s ‘iconic identity’. Your whole ‘campaign’ is based around negativity, your personal opinion and obvious dislike of music and fun in general.

Most buskers (amplified or not) aren’t out there to ‘party’, as you put it, Mr Gleeson. Sure we want to have a good time doing what we love but at the end of the day we are a business just like you, trying to make some money to get by and create a meaningful experience for the people of Byron, tourists and locals alike. The vast majority of the buskers in town play positive music that people can relate to.

Architect Mark Halford says that environmental options were in the forefront when designing the upgrade. Mark says that the process of creating the new space began with a briefing by BRCC requiring a creative and flexible development of the site incorporating environmentally sustainable elements where possible.

He also says that the biggest design challenge was breathing aesthetic life into the site â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the existing two storey administration

Byron Region Community College is very pleased to invite you to the official opening of our wonderful, enhanced head office and training rooms.

‘The classrooms and verandah of the refurbished workshop also flow seamlessly into the courtyard area.’

The main building also has the luxury of the multifunctional large studio that can be used as an arena for live performance, multimedia and visual art productions, but is also has a flexible internal spatial division created by large articulated walls that can be folded away to turn one large harmonious space into smaller individual spaces.

Though the finished project is aesthetically pleasing, it is the application of environmentally

sustainable elements in the design that deserve the most applause.

The extensive use of photovoltaic cells – 30kW – on the roofs of the two large existing buildings is feeding power into the grid. Energy efficient LED and fluorescent lighting are used extensively and the use of natural lighting has been optimised.

A highlight of the facility is that natural ventilation – via awning hung windows, louvre windows, stacking doors and the unique ‘Cardiff Air’ extraction fan cooling system installed in the refurbished workshop building, requires minimal electricity consumption.

Visitors to the college will see many of these features signposted through the development. ‘The community has benefited from the excellent local cooperation and

the work of all concerned,’ says Mark. ‘This cooperation has facilitated the creation of an excellent, high quality, high value community asset. This is a very positive outcome for the Byron Shire.’

The official opening is on Wednesday October 6 from 10am to 12pm and all are welcome. ‘I want people to feel that the college is open to everyone,’ says Richard. ‘If peoplee can’t make it to the opening, we would love them to come and make another time to have a look around.’

Q The recent extensive renovations have been mainly funded by the Australian Government’s Department of Education Employment and Workplace Relations with contributions from Byron Shire Council, Northern Rivers Renewable Energy, Community Learning Innovations Centre and Byron College itself.

Byron families help protect wildlife Indonesia’s animals and plants are fast approaching extinction. Byron Bay families are helping protect tigers and elephants in Sumatra, orangutans in Kalimantan, hatching turtle eggs on the coast, and protecting endangered bird habitats.

Indonesia has the most spectacular wildlife and plantlife, most of which exist in scattered National Parks and protected reserves. The plight of orangutans, elephants, rhinoceros, gibbon, turtles, wildcats, tigers, birds and all the other animals has motivated a group of conservationists from Byron Bay to help protect them.

The conservation group includes vets, environmentalists, teachers, doctors, engineers and students. They have established a foundation for the huge task, Save Indonesian Endangered Species fund (SIES), and they also now part-own five ecolodges: Rimba Orangutan Ecolodge, Satwa Elephant Ecolodge, Bajo Komodo Ecolodge, Kelimutu Crater Lakes Ecolodge, and Udayana Kingfisher Ecolodge.

Newrybar veterinarian Claire Oelrichs is the conservation project coordinator. Claire also guides ecotours introducing guests to the conservation projects and manages the Foundation.

Local environmental engineer and SIES treasurer Richard Hagley explains, ‘SIES seeks out local Indonesian conservationists and supports and empowers their ideas and efforts through education, project support and ecotourism. It has been a highly

successful formula, with easy cross-cultural relationships and faithful financial management. It seems there are many Indonesian conservationists who flourish with ideas, committment and energy if they are noticed and supported.’

Twice a year Claire guides ecotours and visits every project to discuss progress and manage funds. Ecotour safaris are very private with four to 12 guests benefitting from inclusion in conservation discussions. Every day the tour group goes on safari in the parks for wild animal viewing and visits project sites. Children and older people are welcome and encouraged.

After working as a vet for 25 years, Claire changed direction in 2002, when she went on safari to Indonesia to see the orangutans. It diverted Claire’s professional career and she became committed to assisting Indonesian wildlife.

‘The experience of seeing the wild orangutans was extraordinary and I felt there was much that I could do,’ she says. ‘The friendly locals and people in authority are open to conservation and ecotourism projects.’

Richard agrees. ‘The wild places could be lost altogether without international attention

and forest-friendly income for villagers. Everyone loves a safari yet tourism to Indonesian national parks is relativley unknown in Australia.”

The foundation started with Sakura, the baby elephant who was dramatically rescued from a well in which she had been entombed for two weeks or more. The park rangers asked for help to close the wells. The story, ‘Pits of despair’, ran in The Sydney Morning Herald in 2008, bringing support and dollars, and the fund was born.

The fund has employed local villagers for the last two and a half years and more than 2,000 wells have been filled.

‘Elephants, tigers and rhinoceroses have been dying in these wells since the park was created in the 1980s. We have brought an end to it. It is so satisfying to have this successful outcome,’ said Claire.

According to Ross Krippner, fireman and property investor, whose young family has enjoyed the safaris, ‘Our new focus is to help the KerinciSeblat tiger corridor, which is frequented by 12 to 16 tigers – a significant number for such an endangered species. The corridor is under threat of deforestation and is being overrun by human habitation. We are committed to building safari ecotourism to the area to help protect the tigers, while also assisting the community.’

‘Ecotourism safaris are a win-win for everyone,’ said Claire. ‘The guests have an opportunity to see an amazing range of rare, wild animals and meet the most committed local people. Most guests respond by saying “I was amazed to see so much wildlife and also fell in love with the people!”

Letters

A library is more than the sum of small devices Q I am of the opinion that the letter penned by Michael Hayman (Echo, September 21) is intended to incite support for a new Byron Bay library.

However, I will â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bite the baitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in support of a real library â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as opposed to a library on a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Dare I state the obvious â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I dare. How fortunate for Michael Hayman that he knows exactly what he desires to read, how to obtain the books he desires from the internet and can afford, not only the

expensive â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, but also the cost of the thousands of downloaded books â&#x20AC;&#x201C; more than â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;our local library could possibly houseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

According to Michael Hayman a modern library needs only a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;couple of chairs and tables with screensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Obviously Michael has never visited the new Surry Hills library which accommodates more than â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; but has found the dozens of tables, chairs and screens to be inadequate to meet the need.

Of course, a modern library should have computers and internet access. However, no â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; can replace a real library that lures the library user into learning.

No â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; can replace wandering down corridors of books to, by chance encounter, discover a book of previously unknown subject. Viewing a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; cannot be compared with, or replace, the pleasure of sitting comfortably in a chair and losing oneself in a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hard copyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; book. Reading

the printed word is far more relaxing than reading a glaring screen; especially on a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Tell me, Michael, how impressive is a copy of the Lindisfarne Gospels on your â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;? Does it inspire you to take a trip to Holy Island?

If the letter by Michael Hayman is not meant to be a witty support for a new Byron Bay library, then the thousands of books on his â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; must be comic books. Accord-

ing to the view expressed by Michael Hayman, the citizens of Byron Bay do not need a library because he has a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;small deviceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; that caters to all his library needs. If Michael Hayman is serious â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which I doubt â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the opinion he expressed indicates a rather self-centred attitude that is not Byronian.

books, replaced by various edevices. He can join hands in a big circle with all the other duffers who predicted in the 1980s that the paperless office was soon to be with us; that credit cards would soon lead to the cashless society; that the efficiencies of the computer in industry would soon lead to a 25-30 hour working week as the norm.

And I am still waiting for my Roger Ramjet backpack to turn up and replace my car, bike and legs. There have been many transformational inventions, especially in the past 300 years of the Industrial and Post-Industrial revolutions, but only the foolishly brave try to define consequences before they emerge. And usually, the more extreme predictions turn out to be way off.

Michael simply fails to grasp the purposes of a good library; for many library users it is not wholly, or even primarily, about books, papers, magazines, discs etc. A library is a social hub for readers in all fields at all levels, a hub where information is sought, offered and exchanged; where readers can discuss what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve read and pick up tips about what they might like to read next; where students can study and be assisted by professional librarians.

Reading might generally be a solitary activity, but for many of us it has a vital social side to it which expands our reading choices, our knowledge and â&#x20AC;&#x201C; dare I say it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; may help impart such wisdom as we end up with.

I am in Byron Library almost every weekday, sometimes for half an hour, sometimes a couple of hours. Contact with librarians (great people: they read books themselves and talk to readers about many, many others, and I tap into that knowledge) is always a part of my dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business. For me and lots of others our local library and its staff are a vital community asset.

The paper-printed word will be with us for a long, long time, I hope and suspect, and so with the libraries that have evolved to make them available in communities all over this planet over centuries.

I shall follow Michaelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s example and be foolishly brave: e-books simply wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cut the mustard as a universal replacement for paper books, but will be a useful mode of some of the reading of some of the people for some of the time.

So letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s have our new, enlarged and better equipped library as soon as possible, equipped for both the paperprinted word and the electronic version. It will be well utilised in this community.

Time to take notice of the snails’ alarm signals the while, the seas and their sediments continued to receive this toxic pollutant. Like an ocean liner at full steam changing direction, our global response was slow. The full repercussions of our ignorance and delay are not yet upon us.

Though they make no sound, marine snails now raise a new alarm. The small snails known as pteropods have flaps on both sides of their single foot. They use these to swim through their home, the open seas of the cold Southern Ocean. Under certain conditions, they replace krill as the major food for many other species from small fish to great whales. But their delicate living shells are falling apart at the edges.

This prompted Australian science workers to comb through Antarctic data assembled over the past ten years. In 2008, they announced the collective weight of shells of one pteropod species has indeed declined. Another species simply does not appear as often anymore.

Story & photo Mary Gardner

Who always has a soft body covered with a mantle and often, but not always, a hard exterior? With a single flat foot and a mouth full of chainsaw teeth? Who has green blood full of copper? A net of nerve cells with a row of some knotted together into clumps? Optional extras are either lungs or gills or being of one sex or another or both. Size? From microscopic to thirteen metres.

Preposterous as it seems, for 570 million years, in the sea, in fresh water and on land, these are mollusks. Their many forms are all variations of the basic body plan. As limpets, they have a single shell like a chinaman’s hat. As clams, oysters, mussels and such, they have two. Being chitons, they live under a set of plates hooked together like chain mail. The squid and cuttlefish forms have a remnant of a shell shaped like a supporting rod which they carry it inside themselves. As octopuses, they have no shells or remnants at all.

Shells and us Finally, with bodies twisted 180 degrees and tapered to fit into their single coiled shell, they are snails. Surely at some moment in your life, you paid special attention to a snail? Or perhaps it was a snail’s shell?

Snail shells always mean something to humans. Cowry snail shells, threaded together into belts or woven into baskets, speak of wealth. They were used as trade goods from as long ago as 3000 BC, sourced from the Maldives.

The shells became the standard currency for Africa, India and

China. They were legal tender throughout the Middle East and in Europe. In parts of the world, they were used right into the mid 20th century.

Sex changes For centuries, science workers and teachers have dissected marine snails, counted them on shores throughout the world and observed their lifestyles.

Although all snails on land are hermaphrodites, many marine snails have separate sexes. So in 1970-71, when researchers on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean reported an alarming change in females, everyone looked again to their snails.

Suddenly, adult female snails grew penises. This blocked the passageway used for the release of eggs. But the females did not become functional males. With their females sterilised, these snail populations died out.

By 1975, the entire southern coast of the UK reported a rapid decline of its dog whelk snails. This was directly related to imposex, as the deformity was called. In Arcachon Bay, France, imposex wiped out the

snails that drilled into commercial oysters. But the shells of the oysters themselves became deformed, their flat shape changing into very thick balls. In 1976, the oyster larvae did not survive. By 1980, the oyster fishery collapsed.

Not till 1986 was the cause traced to the use of organtins in antifouling paint on boats and fish cages. The persistence of tributyltin (TBT) in the sediments was finally understood in the 1990s.

David Suzuki returns to Byron Shire in October Environmental scientist and author David Suzuki will return to the Byron Shire at the end of October as part of a whistlestop tour of Australian cities to promote his latest book, The Legacy.

The Legacy is described as a distillation of the wisdom and experience of Suzuki’s long and passionate love affair with Planet Earth and as his legacy for generations to come.

In his lifetime, David Suzuki has witnessed an explosion of scientific knowledge as well as a huge change in our relationship with the planet: a tripling of the world’s population, a greatly increased ecological footprint through the global economy and a huge growth in technological capacity.

In The Legacy, Suzuki explains how we arrived at where we are today, and presents his vision for a better future. He will speak to this topic when he appears at the A&I Hall in Bangalow on Wednesday Oc-

Ten tips for sustainable housing Whether you are building, buying or renovating, here are ten tips to consider with creating a more sustainable home.

1. Water conservation. Use water efďŹ cient appliances and ďŹ ttings, such as 3-star (or more) showerheads and water pressure-limiting devices, and include a rainwater tank to supply water for use with gardens, toilets and laundry.

2. Natural heating and cooling (passive solar design). Good passive solar design allows your home to respond to its local climate through natural heating in winter and cooling in summer eg. good orientation and room zoning, capturing breezes for cross-ventilation, appropriate insulation, shading (eg. sufďŹ cient eaves), building materials (lightweight construction/ thermal mass), and ďŹ xtures and ďŹ nishes (eg. skylights and window treatment).

Incorporation of passive design reduces the need to rely on air conditioners/ heaters. It can also indirectly promote natural daylighting and improve indoor air quality with circulating breezes providing fresh air inside the home.

3. Energy and greenhouse efďŹ cient water heating. Install a solar, natural gas or electric heat pump hot water system to lower energy bills and reduce the single largest source of greenhouse emissions in the household.

4. Future-proof. The living area and at least one bedroom and toilet on the entry level should be readily accessible from the front boundary or car space to accommodate your changing housing needs as you get older.

5. Safe ďŹ&#x201A;oors. Design ďŹ&#x201A;oors and showers to be step-free (hobless). Use ďŹ&#x201A;oor surfaces that are slip resistant to guard against injuries.

6. Address the street. An easy-to-read house number at the front of your property makes it easy to ďŹ nd. Good external lighting and separated driveway and pedestrian entries also make it safer.

7. Casual surveillance. Design your home to have easy surveillance to play areas and the street from the main living area and kitchen for better security.

8. Long-term maintenance. Reduce the repair and ongoing maintenance costs of your home by using low maintenance materials.

9. Indoor air quality. Avoid materials that contain volatile organic compounds (VOCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s), such as paints/ďŹ nishes and adhesives, which can cause irritation and allergies, and impact poorly on your health.

10. Outdoor living. Include permanently covered outdoor play and entertainment areas with a good relationship to indoor spaces to maximise your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s access to your regionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favourable lifestyle and climate.

Remember to check with the council for any speciďŹ c design requirement regulations, such as setbacks and plumbing standards for rainwater tanks.

OUT THERE Giant bromeliads have become my passion lately â&#x20AC;&#x201C; no care, structural, big and colourful! They are so dramatic and most of them love full sun, making them an ideal feature plant in any situation.

The biggest grow to 2.5 metres while most are about 1.5 to 2 metres, so you can imagine their impact. Flowers last for twelve months and will stand to about 3 metres with some being perfumed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; spectacular! For those that worry about the mozzies with broms, try sprinkling coffee grounds around or, as some of my collectors have suggested, a couple of drops of Dettol.

I am so obsessed by broms I even do paintings of them in my spare time. So come and have a look while I have such a full range of different varieties.

Blues and Roots Man ASH GRUNWALD plays the Hotel Great Northern this Friday; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a featured artist at Bellingen Global Carnival this long weekend.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s his Hot Mama Vibes Album tour, and if the live gig is anywhere near as good as this album, then Ash is going to be cooking.

Ash Hot Mama Vibes is a wonderful album. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of Sly & the Family Stonish funkier than I expected; how do you describe it? Yep well it does seem to be a bit funkier in places than my past stuff. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more just me exploring different elements of whats going round in my head. A lot of what I write these days comes from the beat first. Singing and guitar usually spill out pretty naturally in the studio so I just tend to go where the beat takes me. I really relaxed with this album and let it happen.

Why did you mix electronica with blues...werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you worried that it all could have gone horribly wrong, like mixing chocolate with bananas...hang on, that works... Well thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably why I took it slowly. My first album was straight blues and it took another four to get where I am now. I love electronic instruments just as I love my old National steel guitar.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always gotten a kick out of combining the really old with the really new. Like in Raw; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got chain gang sounds on top of a hip hop beat with an attempted sinister guitar riff. I hate the thought that if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re playing bluesy stuff you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t draw from now and mix it up.

So tell me about Hot Mama? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just a little comedy song really. Bit of fun. It all came from that chorus.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been kicking around for a long time.

Do you think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re more comfortable with yourself as a person and as a musician now than when you first started? I think so. I feel like I can do

what I want musically because Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve reached my goal of finding my own sound. As a person I probably feel less sure of myself the older I get for some reason. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good thing.

What are you prepared to do now creatively that frightened you a decade ago? What Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing now.

Violating Genre boundries.

Tell me a little about the recording process... where, how long, what did you go in there wanting to achieve? It was recorded over a period of six months.

Most of the intital jams were done over email. Actually that was for the half of the album with the hip hop producers. The other half came from two daysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; jamming with the band in Brizzy and another two weeks turning those jams into real songs. With the band stuff I just wanted to have fun and see if we could lay down some building blocks. I knew the tough bit was going to be turning something from a fun jam with potential into a real song, but I love that process too.

I am reminded of this driving to Whooping Cough, or dead from diphtheria or tetanus or Ballina the other day. On the polio. Bang on the backsteps horizon I see three tiny shapes before you walk down because moving onto the bitumen. A brown snakes live under the mother duck has decided that house.

My nowhere really worth going daughter looks at me like I’m anyway. Just stay at home. With nuts. I probably am. If I run me. Until you’re forty. And no over the ducks I cry. If I don’t run over the ducks I cry. I think one wants you. It will be just you and your Mum. There’s that I am that mother duck, nothing creepy about that. and every day I must send my most precious beings into a I can’t get the ducklings out world which may not return of my head. I’m worrying them. When I send my kids about them every day. I can’t down the street to get a bottle sleep for thinking of all the of milk I warn them about mothers who don’t get their creepy paedophiles with fluffy ducklings across the road. It’s puppies, to be careful crossing the absolute powerlessness of the road, and don’t use the it that frightens me. It’s 3am. I’m Mullumbimby pedestrian in an insomniac stupor. I get in crossing because it is more the car. I drive to Ballina. I wait. dangerous than jay walking.

Mother Duck emerges from the grass with her babies. I bag I tell them not to lick the them. Chuck them in the boot receivers of public telephones and drive them home. I lock because they’re covered in them in the bathroom. They’re hepatitis, that you don’t sit on safe. I fall asleep. I wake to a a public toilet seat because scream of a child wandering someone else’s wee could to the loo for a morning pee: touch your bum or you could ‘Mum I’ve been attacked... by get their bum germs and get a duck!’ herpes or festering bum sores.

Being a parent is terrifiying. The moment my cervix dilated 10cm and a brand new human being emerged, I opened the door to a world of anxiety that I never knew existed.

26 September 28, 2010 The Byron Shire Echo

Was the outcome what you expected? Well I didn’t really have very firm expectations. I just finished the songs and tried to make them sound as good as they can be. Sometimes it’s like the song already exist and you’re just bringing it to the surface. That was a key difference for me in this album. It didnt need to fit together as one coherent work. I was actually thinking if there’s a lot of variation, all the better.

It’s all about choices isn’t it, so many different ways you can go with an album ...How does the technology you choose create the path that you need to follow? Well maybe one or two songs on the album could have happend in the analog days but the most part they were done using a lot of loops. Especially for the tracks I did with the Trials, Countbounce and Chasm, it was also a case of emailing to and fro. The fact that you can jam over email and have the track almost finished before you’ve even talked on the phone is amazing. That’s pretty much how it was with Trials. I was in Canada and then later in Byron while I was working on a collab with the Funkoars and I still hadn’t even heard his voice. What I found really interesting is that the impression I had of him through the typed word was pretty much exactly how he is in person.

Do you think that each new album needs to contain footprints of what has come before, or is it always a brand new process? Usually that’s what I try to do. I’ve never liked it when my favourite musos have gone on massive departures so I try to take the audience with me as well. Having said that. I’m not sure if fans of ‘Introducing’ would love ‘Hot Mama Vibes’.

Which track are you proudest of? Theres a bit in ‘Change’. Just this ascending little riff that I played on the guitar, but it sounds sort of like demonic heavy bass in a really up happy song and I’m really happy with that bit. But for the most part I need to take a few years before I can see it with any objectivity, and even then, it will be coloured by my views at the time. Its probably good not to get to attached in a way because it’s all just a matter of opinion. I love the beats on a few of them too.

What should we be expecting for the Byron show? I’ve got the four piece who played on a lot of the album. Fingers Malone is on kit drum, Synth and Mpc, Kanchana is playing African percussion and Djing plus playing MPC, and Benny Owen is playing the car door, Djembe and a Sink. I’m still doing the one-man-band thing in the middle of the cacophony, so there’s a fair bit of percussion up there!

AMY MEREDITH AT THE HOTEL GREAT NORTHERN ON SUNDAY

Amy’s gig Amy Meredith’s Young At Heart has sent fans into an online frenzy. The band released their debut album Restless last week, Understanding the Method where it debuted on the national ARIA charts at #8, following With three critically acclaimed albums to their name and hundreds Lying smashing into the Top Ten of the ARIA singles chart.

He appearances on ‘Hey Hey It’s Saturday’, the State of Origin, and is joined by Frank Corby, who was most recently seen pounding ‘Sunrise’, followed by gigs from Perth to Brisbane and everywhere the skins behind legendary blues band The Bondi Cigars. Frank is in between. The band have toured non-stop for the past 12 also a notable songwriter in his own right, adding a rich tapestry months, scoring massive support slots with the likes of Cobra of rhythm and texture as well as his dark vocals to the mix.

Starship, Stereophonics and Good Charlotte.

Byron Bay Brewery Creative collaborations allow artists to traverse new ground, take risks and embark on whole new journeys.

The Echo caught up with Lisa after a 23 date tour in Italy.

How have you structured the show... is there talking between, do we get a narrative? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a structure in a show for me but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still taking shape.

For sure there will be some talking and testifying.

How have you chosen the songs? There must have been a lot that you couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include. For sure, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve narrowed it down to my favorite gospel tunes which will also communicate well to an audience. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m hoping I wont cry. These tunes go back to the most sacred part of my soul.

What are the roots of gospel - how did church music come to the forefront like jazz or blues? The African slaves took the form and melodies of the traditional hymns of their Christian slave masters and infused their own style and thus was born African American gospel and many other forms of music that have become legendary. from jazz and blues and to rhythm and blues and motown and beyond. Was to be expected really hahaha.

What does gospel mean to you...Do you feel that intensity on stage when you are singing and performing... Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my roots, it how I learned to sing and where my passion and devotion to music was born. Can gospel music be transformative? Of course... all music is.

You are working with Mohini Cox - tell me about the collaboration? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bringing our individual styles together and are are working on some tunes together. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve sat in on some of Mohiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shows and look forward to seeing how this collaboration develops.

They say you never really know a person until you sing gospel together.

And the band? Tell me about the players. Geoff Wright is MCing, got some dudes from my soul band (Dave Sanders, Max Stowers and Connor Fitzgerald) and another keyboard player whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name escapes me... sorry).

I remember seeing a Clarence Fountain and the Blind Boys from Alabama gig when I was in my early twenties and it made me weep but feel ecstatic at the same time. Why do you think Gospel touches people so profoundly? Because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s devotional in nature and emotional and so harmonically beautiful itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult to not be moved. I get shivers, my stomach aches (with tenderness) and I am often in tears.

I will try and keep it together for these shows.

Experience something profound at the Byron Brewery... opens Sunday. With shows scheduled for Sunday October 24 and November 14. Bookings can be made 6685 5833 and at www.kupromotions.oztix.com.au

Down Memory Laneous A mongrel born of love lost, intoxication, back beats, nipples, distortion, duality and Staffordshire terriers, Laneous and the Family Yah are proud to present their new album Found Things. A collage of inspiration found in the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s travels, collected to produce a miscellaneous representation of their experiences in music and words, Found Things is 17 tracks written between mid 2009 to mid 2010 by Laneous & the Family Yah and recorded mid 2010 at Psi Fi studios in Brisbaneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fortitude Valley by Peet G. From start to finish, front to back, Found Things is a devastating mongrel mixture of genres, instruments, tempos, styles and influences, and it solidifies Laneous & The Family Yah as one of the most dangerous acts in the country. Byron Brewery on Saturday, for FREE!

Being Eclectic is Wright In their three years together as a band, Melbourne genre-mashers Simon Wright and the Eclective have gone from being a Fitzroy Jam Band to a local icon, pumping out party vibes to their ever growing loyal followers. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to pigeon hole the Eclective. The energetic dance floor is always a colourful bunch. The hip hop diehards are banging their heads, the reggae crew are doinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; the one drop hop and the smooth soul cats are sittinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the pocket groove. One thing they all share in common though, is a smile from ear to ear. Their music is an uplifting urban-jazz-and-beyond collision of hip hop, soul, funk, reggae, Latin, blues and rock â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roll.

Footy Show favourite Mick Meredith brings his music-making comedy mirth to Side Splitting Comedy at the Currumbin RSL on Thursday October 7. Mick is one of Australia’s most versatile comedy performers and has established himself over the years as a popular and successful funny man. Mick cut his teeth in the musical world, playing in bands in his early teens then a detour into magic and clowning and finally switching to stand-up comedy in his 30s. His experience in all these genres of entertainment hasmade him an all-round performer, a tradesman of comedy, and he can blend all his skills into one huge show, a big fat comedy buffet with all the trimmings. Mick’s style has been described as laidback and cheeky with plenty of laughs and applause, a bloke you’ll laugh at onstage and want to have a beer with afterwards.

The Byron Theatre Company are getting ready to stage their latest production for the school holidays: their own adaptation of Roald Dahlâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fantastic Mr Fox. The Echo caught up with Sandesh Gibney, the Director and actor Ruby Walters.

Ruby what has drawn you to acting? I see the process of acting as an exchange and I think it is great that we give something to the community and as a teenager it is great to be able to get something back... like a focus... something to get me through school!

What do you think you bring to the stage as a story teller? Enthusiasm.

How did you enjoy your role in Engine?

The thing I loved about it most was working with Norpa, and seeing the two main actors transform between characters was like witnessing a miracle.

ritual for favourable hunting outcomes. Today, it is the only place where people of all ages can come together in one room... including actors, and if the show works properly, everyone will bond in an emotionl response that is powerful beyond intellect. I could write a dissertation about it!

Why have you started directing childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theatre? I started because I have children and I love the theatre so much that I wanted them to experience it as well. It is also good for kids to experience live performance, something different from TV, movies, ipod screens etc.

What have been your challenges for this show? Working with children! Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard the saying â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;kids and animalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got kids as animals, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doubly challenging!

Kids are so turned onto DVDâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and films, do you think they still get theatre? Can it give them something extra? Yeah! Contemporary theatre is something else. It is metamorphed into something t.v and movies just cannot produce... realism. Having someone give something like that, in the flesh, is amazing.

What do you think is the strength of Fantastic Mr Fox as a show? So much audience participation in the show. With call and response, booing hissing and cheering and song. The audience are as much a part of the show as the actors. Another strength is that this show is introducing a number of kids into perfomance for the first time as the cast are mostly children. Having chorus within ths how gives kids an easier entry level, rather asking them to stand up individually and perform.

Tell me about the character you play in Mr & Mrs Fox? I read the book when I was younger... and thought Mrs Fox is a bit cowardly and pathetic, but this theatre production is portraying a more real mother who is strong and protective of her children and very supportive of her husband as he is supportive of her! Although it revolves around the children they share as new romantic love!

What staging decisions have you made? It is a difficult show as far as half the story is in valleys, hills and woods of England, and half is where the animals in the story have their homes underground. So the challenge was to make it understandable for children in the audience where the action is taking place; either above ground or underground, and connecting the two.

had become before Pixar caught up, this is a delightful, inventive children’s movie with an uplifting positivity and refreshing sense of fun. It’s screening next Wednesday as part of Kids Classic Movies at the Byron Community Centre.

The Girl Who Played With Fire

Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

I believe that the Americans are in the process of making their own version of this Swedish serial (subtitles don’t draw an audience in Bumcrack, Ohio), but the lasting impression I came away with was that I’d just sat through an over-extended version of one of those US cop shows in which they only use letters for titles, e.g. CSI, NCIS – the closing wrap you’ve seen a million times on TV. So apart from the language, and the graphic and, to be quite honest, rather gratuitous girl-on-girl sex scene, which is unlikely to survive the cut in the Land of the Free, I wonder how different it could be? You need not necessarily have seen ‘The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo’ (nor to have read the late Stieg Larsson’s best-selling trilogy – I haven’t)

to follow what’s going on here, but you do have to concentrate hard, for an unfocused, unbalanced narrative at times verges on the incoherent. A new director (Daniel Alfredson) and screenwriter (Jonas Frykberg) go perilously close to losing the plot and if, halfway through, you ask yourself that very basic question, ‘what’s this movie about?’, you might struggle to come up with an answer. Fortunately, Noomi Rapace is back playing the anti-heroine and potential saviour of the cigarette industry, Lisbeth Salander. She is simply sensational, but even for me her axe-weilding grand finale was a

bit much to swallow. And as for her having any regard for the wooden Michael Nykvist, whom she’d shagged in ‘Tattoo’ – give me a break! Cinematography is polished if tending to be on the bleak side and Stockholm makes a novel change from NYC and LA, but, at 129 minutes it is a bit of a test. I’d been reasonably absorbed by it until about the ninety-minute mark, at which point I fell out of its spell and just wanted it to be over. The first one was terrific, but its successor is nowhere near as good … and, in the wash up, I still wasn’t entirely sure who killed Bjurman. ~John Campbell

Kiki’s Delivery Service Kiki is a thirteen-year-old witch who, with her cat Jiji, leaves home to develop her craft in a nearby city. It’s one of those gorgeous cartoon places that looks like somewhere in central Europe, sometime in the late ‘fifties – but with micro-waves and modern kids. To support herself, Kiki establishes a delivery service, transporting items on her broom. Problems she encounters while on the job test her resolve and lead her to grown-up decision making.

Me and Orson Welles A wonderful coming of age story, intricately set in the world of theatre. This is a seductive film about dreams and betrayal; it faithfully recreates the world of 1937 as Orson Welles prepared to stage his controversial production of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar (in modern clothes) at the famous Mercury Theatre.

The film’s great strength lies in authentically recreating the reality of the era, the music and the personalities. The film is driven by an obvious love of Shakespeare and theatrical effects. Most of it takes place

in, on, under and around the stage. Lights, ropes, trap doors feature prominently, along with superstition, backbiting, bitching and a fair deal of spontaneous sex. We see what goes on – in front of and behind the curtains.

Christian McKay (as Orson Welles) grabs our attention as the celebrated 20th century film director, actor, writer and producer with the distinctive voice and imposing personality.

Not only does McKay give a great performance in this role of a lifetime, but he actually looks like the great Welles, himself. The other character (based on real events) is high school student Richard (Zac Efron) who happens on the audition crowd in the street outside Welles’ Mercury Theatre. Welles takes a shine to the kid and casts him as Lucius, the lute player. Orson instructs the beauteous front-of-house manager Sonja (Claire Danes) to teach him the part. Pretty soon, Richard is love-struck, stagestruck and rehearsing beside one of the great artists of the 20th century. ~ Lounge Cinema

THURS 30TH TO WED 6TH OCTOBER

Oliver Stone is a slam-dunk filmmaker who, throughout his impressive career, has been primarily concerned with ‘the big picture’ and the values and mores of contemporary US society. It is now twenty-three years (!) since his first scathing look at Wall Street and I for one couldn’t wait to see the result of his return to the spiritual [sic] home of capital. I wasn’t exactly bored out of my skull by the time I left – Stone is far too good at what he does to produce anything less than diverting – but let’s just say I was glad to get back out into grubby old Jonson Street. Having never owned shares on the stock exchange, and because I am one of those plebs whose eyes glaze over when the business report comes on between the news and the sports, I was behind the eight-ball from the start. What are these people talking about?

I kept asking myself, for the dialogue is mired in the jargon used by financial tycoons and merchant wankers. But I stuck with it … the Armani wheelers and dealers have their story and are as entitled to have it told as anyone else. Relating to it is another matter, especially as events hardly ever leave the rarefied air of mahogany boardrooms and Manhattan high-rise. This undoubtedly is by design – Stone surely is making the point of how detached from Main Street’s reality his subjects are, but it seems remiss of him to not venture, at least for a smell, into the world of “the hoi polloi” where the brunt of the Global Financial Crisis was most painfully felt – and is still being felt. In its most simple terms, it’s about an idealistic good guy (Shia LaBoeuf), a Satanically greedy, unscrupulous bad guy (Josh Brolin) and the other guy, legendary Gordon Gekko (Michael Douglas), whose ‘journey’ (yawn), after he has been released from prison and re-entered the money market, will be charted. The written-bynumbers love interest (Carey Mulligan – sadly mis-cast after her beautiful performance in ‘An Education’), is Gekko’s estranged

daughter and LaBoeuf’s girlfriend, but her part is of little significance compared with the macho posturings of the three men. Breathtaking aerial shots of New York’s gleaming glass and steel provide relief from a repetitive and dense script, but the saccharine ending would make even Disney gag.

As a Stone fan, I was extremely underwhelmed. ~John Campbell

Mungo’s Crossword first published in The Week.

E ARIES: It’s always easier to see other peoples’ faults than our own, so comfortably obscured by blind spots. Since whatever you focus on expands, treat this week as the product of your designer mind and see how quickly this affects outer circumstances – for better or worse.

F TAURUS: This week’s Venus wants you looking your best – everyone else will be. And if you’ve been too flat chat with worldly concerns to pay attention to your up close and personal life, planetary emphasis in the sign of togetherness puts the heart department back on the Tauran agenda.

G GEMINI: Your special Gemini talents - versatility, social mobility and intrepid scene-surfing – come into their own this week, though any hint of insincerity could turn off valuable allies. Midweek Gemini moon has your organizational skills peaking and that’s when you’ll be at your most productive.

H CANCER: Focusing on eliminating unhealthy financial habits will be more efficient and effective this week than trying to pre-plan or micromanage an uncertain future. If late week Cancer moon unsettles your sense of security, don’t for a second underestimate your own extraordinary resourcefulness.

I L EO: Try not to overreact if discord hits your domestic sector this week. Or people change their minds. Join them by changing yours – flexing your mental muscles in new directions and rather than offering the usual set menu, creating more spontaneous dishes of the day.

J VIRGO: Mars in your sign likes to take charge and that’s okay as long as you’re forgiving along with it… This week’s surprisingly playful and entertaining, or could be if you can willingly engage with challenges to the status quo as the personal planets give treasured friendships a workout. Don’t expect key players in your life to behave like saints – do you?

The early rounds of the 2010 Chess Olympiad have provided only modest encouragement for Australian fans.

After the long journey to the isolated Russian mining town of Khanty-Mansiysk, the Australians were pleasantly surprised to find that two of the feared downsides of a Siberian Olympiad – accommodation and food – were of a more than acceptable level.

Representatives from 138 other countries also made the journey to K-M, a turnout supplemented by the Russians ignoring the rules and including five home teams into the Open Olympiad and three more into the Women’s Olympiad.

The first round saw the Australian Open team cruise through against weak opposition – Bahrain (4-0) – but they came back down to earth the following day by becoming victims of Armenia, the defending Olympic Champions (0.5-3.5). Australian Champion Zhao Zong Yuan was checkmated by world number four Levon Aronian and George Xie was crushed by multiple gold

K L IBRA: This week’s Libran dance is, as always, the ballet of balancing light, dark, blessings, challenges, love, fun, worries and troubles. The spirit’s willing, but the flesh has its own agenda when sensible intentions meet spring temptations, so best just bless the present and pass the party hats.

L SCORPIO: Take-charge Mars in your sign at worst makes you self willed and stubborn, at best attracts what you want through love and confidence rather than power broking. Your magnetic and healing abilities are strong at the moment, though conditions apply. One condition anyway, and that’s integrity.

M S AGITTARIUS: With frisky spring pheromones in the wind only the fast and the even faster can keep up with you. Yes, emotional weather’s cyclonic, but as Sagittarian soul poet Rilke wrote: No feeling is final... Limit multitasking this week and focus on one thing at a time.

N CAPRICORN: For Capricorns who haven’t accepted Pluto’s demotion from planetary status, the dark planet moving forward in your sign lightens your existential load. So explore any delightful diversions or entertaining follies crossing your path this week because right now it’s worth welcoming whatever light relief’s available.

O AQUARIUS: The mixed offerings in this week’s cosmic shopping trolley favour shopping, beauty treatments and artistic expression, but not abstinence, fidelity, honesty or marketing your ideas. Though will contrary Aquarians let that stop them from going right ahead and achieving miracles? Didn’t think so.

P PISCES: Mars and Venus are in a very sexy connection this week, but troublesome cross-currents are also operating. If you’re experiencing an ambivalent, love-hate affair with your current circumstances, use this seasonal attack of divine discontent to fuel the changes you know you need.

Starseed: keeping Utopia within reach Victoria Cosford When Dan Schreiber came to Byron Bay from London in the early nineties he found that it was precisely the spot he was looking for. Its alternative culture and open-minded community were elements he had sought in Mexico, Bali and Hawaii in his quest for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;the right placeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which none of these places were.

Dan and I are sitting in the nearly-completed tea-house at Starseed Gardens, just out of Byron Bay. He has poured us oolong tea â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the Beaujolais of green teas, he tells me â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which we sip from tiny cups as he describes his plan.

South African-born, he is a self-taught herbal healer and horticulturist, creative director of Starseed â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also been called a visionaryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, he says. With a background in the life sciences â&#x20AC;&#x201C; oceanography, botany, zoology â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he would prefer to describe himself as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;just into natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, or perhaps Dr Seussâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s character Lorax, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a friend of the treesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. When he arrived he was looking for somewhere to build some botanical gardens here, with the notion of gradually introducing cultural elements into it. For a while he was â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;living quite happily up in UIF IJMMT BU 6QQFS 8JMTPOT $SFFL CVU UIFO he started to realise that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;the very thing Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d moved to Byron for was becoming eroded, marginalised â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like the buskers in the street.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And so he devised a 25â&#x20AC;&#x201C;50-year plan. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Instead of trying to change the whole area I wanted to create a pocket set in gardens and not in the CBD, so people could come and visit and see what Byron is for. Town is not a true representation of the culture that exists in the hills.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; He wanted to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;design a forum for our incredible artists and healers, thinkers and musiciansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, a microcosm or a model, perhaps, of a utopian vision. In fact Starseedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website features the words â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;attainable utopiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I think that communities have to find a way of finding out whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s of value and keeping it there â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like the Barossa, for example, which has a strong traditional culture of growing foodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, Dan

says, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Whereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our whale and dolphin festival, for example? â&#x20AC;&#x201C; given whaling was one of our early industries... people who come here are drawn by the cultural dynamic that is alternative and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vital we nurture it.

We have the highest incidence of creative people per capita in Australia.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Dan found Jagers Piggery, off Skinners Shoot Road, which up until 1995 was the most hi-tech piggery around. It is 80 acres of pasture, spring-fed dams and the old piggery buildings themselves â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the tearoom, for example, all recycled bamboo floors, spiral deck, old wooden chests and fuschia cushions on the floor, was the pig-loading building. Starseed itself is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;a loose co-operativeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of about 15 members.

Wwoofers help out and there is a core group of six â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;who are directing the energy.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; That energy is being poured into the garden nursery itself, which will ultimately specialise in culturally significant ethno-botanical plants traditionally used for food and medicine; workshops on a host of topics such as organic gardening, biodiversity and solar economies; building wood-fired ovens and Polynesian earth ovens; bamboobuilding festivals and mushroom cultivation.

It sounds so ambitious, and yet Dan is in no hurry, one of the most relaxed and gentle people I have met. All of this started about ten years ago, close enough to Byron so that it was accessible for people to come out for day sessions but far enough away. â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to organically grow these botanical gardens,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; he tells me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re growing everything from seed... What Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing is drawing from so many traditional cultures â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very little that is actually new. A lot of these things arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really complex. The elegance of their solution may be found in the bass notes of culture â&#x20AC;&#x201C; food, music.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; 4UBSTFFE (BSEFO OVSTFSZ â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;is the home of plant-human culture and relationshipsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

SNIPPETS PETIT SNAIL IN WINNING MODE

WhyNot!

Byron Bay French restaurant The Petit Snail has just had a double win. Firstly, they were judged best French restaurant in NSW in the ‘I Love Food Awards 2010’ run by the Lifestyle Food Channel.

In addition to this they won the award for the most highly rated French restaurant in Australia, according to the MyTaste website where people leave testimonies on their dining-out experiences. In the two years since they opened, owners Igor and Dominique have won a total of three awards, last year picking up the Restaurant & Catering Association’s Best New Restaurant in regional NSW. Anyone who has visited this family-run eatery can only be charmed by its warmth, traditional menu and cosy atmosphere.

EATING AND PRIZES You would have to be living under a rock to be unaware of ‘Eat, Pray, Love’.

Elizabeth Gilbert’s memoir, in which she lives variously in India, Italy and Bali following a painful and messy divorce, struck a chord with women the world over (it’s been on the New York Times Best Seller list for 187 weeks) – and has been turned into a movie starring the charismatic Julia Roberts. Byron Bay Writers Festival and Dendy Byron Cinemas will celebrate the Australian premiere with a special champagne screening on Wednesday October 6 at 6pm. It will be an opportunity to meet the new Writers Festival Director Candida Baker as well. In addition to the champagne flowing there will be prizes on the night including great Festival book packs and meal vouchers with Chameleon and O Sushi.

With only 275 seats, the cinema is likely to fill up fast for this fabulous event – but tickets at $25 each are now on sale, either from the box office or by calling 6680 8555.

Food marketing goes to Xtreme Michael McDonald

Pitching your food to a particular audience is a big part of the food industry. Is it healthy, sexy, trendy or comforting? And now, is it sustainable?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how restaurants position themselves to diners, and sometimes need to reposition themselves when a particular pitch doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to be working. The punters spend a lot of money on a night out â&#x20AC;&#x201C; well, a lot of money if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not dripping in the stuff â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and want to be sure their night is going to be pleasurable.

Some want to be reassured theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not spending a lot of money, that what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re getting is an inexpensive deal for the whole family.

Of course one manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pleasure is another manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trapped-in-a-stalled-lift-with-adeodorant-salesman. There are those who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the inexpensive deal â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they want to be seen in the cool new thing, their presence radiating their wealth and hipness. (â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Coolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hipnessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; are words which used to be cool and hip in the 1950s. It may be â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and awesomenessâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; now for all I know.) Part of that is to do with prestige, much of it is about seduction. Restaurants are foreplay.

Restaurants are also a night away from the blue light of the TV and the washingup. You can pitch your eatery as a pair of comfy slippers rather than a slinky negligee in that case. And restaurants are

also about the tribe. Catching up with friends or, in some cases, joining another tribe â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pretending to be part of a boisterous Mediterranean family in a trattoria, for instance.

Tribal concerns are also a big part of pitching food in the wider market. The junk food pushers are all over it, but now the real food growers are taking them on at their own game. If you were lucky enough to watch The Gruen Transfer on ABC TV last Wednesday â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this program is a fabulous insight into how our minds are forked with â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you would have had a taste of the new paradigm in vegetable marketing.

Ad agency Crispin, Porter and Bogusky has created a brilliant campaign for baby carrot giant Bolthouse Farms. It positions baby carrots as extreme junk food for teens and offers the pimply consumer an iPhone game and hilarious promotional videos which take the piss out of themselves.

According to Omid Farhang, VP and creative director at CPB, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Carrots are crunchy, orange, disposable, munchable and portable. They basically share all the exact same qualities as some of the more insidious junk foods. The only thing that was missing is the marketing.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; You can see it all, complete with heavy guitar riffs, at www.babycarrots.com. You still get the junk packaging but at least the kids are eating something with actual nutrition in it.

We stock quality cookware, kitchenware, tableware, glassware, chefs clothing and a broad range of cleaning solutions including green and septic safe products and specialty chemicals for food service and general industry. We stock a complete range of matting for industry, hospitality and home at great prices. If you are a restaurant, small business, accommodation property or person who takes food and cooking seriously we have what you need.

Shand series decided for Bankers and Swingers

A win under their belt, Left Bankers Guy, Ed the Witch Doctor, Russell, Captain Russel the Scruff , Clay and Zac and kneeling Bruce, Eli, Sharky, Snakebite Pete and Sean McQueen Brian Mollet

With the second semi in the Nick Shand Memorial cricket series between the Byron FullTossers and the Suffolk Swingers being sensationally tied, controversy loomed like an ugly seven-headed hydra.

All eyes turned to the famous invisible rule book, the sole repository of wisdom and the last word in any cricket argument.

After prayers and a libation,

and consulting the entrails (in this case a sausage), the relevant passage was found and having lost less wickets the Suffolk Swingers were ruled to have earned the right to contest this years grand final against the giants of the local game, the Left Bankers.

Conditions at Lomath Oval were like a well seasoned cricketer, a bit grey around the edges, but calm. Scruff won the toss for the Bankers and sent out his batting order which is

as top-heavy as the roof of the velodrome in Delhi.

Russell showed he was prepared to take the aerial route as the famous turf was greener than Bob Brown and denser than Fred Nile. Snakebite looked like he would survive Liam’s opening spell but couldn’t get out of the way of one that cannoned off his pads into his stumps. Zac had played himself in and the score was moving along when Liam’s throw from cover caught him a yard short after a clear call of yenno, as the ball died in the turf.

The Swingers had a few chances to clip the wings of the top order but for a calamitous few overs where catches were going down like the US dollar and it seemed umpires, the venerable Brian and St Seymour, would give them no joy.

Russell brought up his 30 and then Scruff and Sean began launching into the bowling. Smoke was coming from the nib of the scorer’s pen as they both retired. Wickets to Jake, Wayno, Jimmy and Liam (3-5) just seemed to bring about more danger as Bruce, Sharky and Guy all did damage in a late flurry that bulged the score to a corpulent 194.

The reply from the Swingers was positive as Bruce chanced his arm and 33 were on the board before Darren was beaten by a sharp throw and run out. Snakebite had his trademark ballet leaps in his run up

working superbly and found the edge of Jake’s bat; this was the first crack in the middle order.

Soon skipper Scruff (4-5) was driving wedges into that crack faster than a gangster rap band after a big gig. Bruce retired on 30 and Geri showed some fight but the equation began to run away for the Swingers.

Ed the witch doctor ghosted in on the afternoon shadows to put the issue beyond doubt with two wickets. Wayno and Swinger’s skipper Levi put on some late runs to give their supporters plenty of chances to cheer, well deserved after their effort this year in the series.

Bruce took the wicket that delivered the trophy to the Left Bankers for the first time.

The trophy itself was unmoved from the vault at the Echo, as only a retinal print allows access and Brian’s eyes were still red from Gavan Higginson’s 60th two days before, and were rejected by the state of the art scanner.

The traditional toast to Mr Shand was shared straight from the bottle of red, skipper and man of the match Russ thanked one and all but especially the Echo, Snakebite Pete and St Seymour, without whom there would be no series.

Next year already promises more than a politician on a pile of pork barrels as rumours persist that Ocean Shores will put up a team.

Photo – Tree Faerie Perfect conditions greeted participants of the sixth annual Brunswick SLSC Triathlon on Sunday. One hundred and sixteen participants undertook to swim, ride, run or all three in the event that is becoming very popular with individual and team athletes. First across the line was well known local runner Tom Anderson who was the last leg for his in team with swimmer Michael Schwager and rider bike Allen Stons. They came home in 35:12. The overall winner of the event was Scott Sewell who completed the tri in 36:20 and the first female home was Georgia Rhodes in 43:07.

Fiver year old Jonah gave dad Alvin Caoyonan a helping hand when he rode the bike leg of the event after his dad’s swim and before the run. Tri rules expect that young competitors are escorted on the course and mum Kelley, pictured, was only to happy to chaperone Jonah through the streets of Bruns.

rental property need travel no further than Bangalow to find realtors with enough experience and expertise to cater to a variety of property buyers and, like the town, there is always something new and interesting happening in real estate in the area.

Elders has recently become the domain of new owners Duncan Lorimer and Janice Maple – both are passionate about real estate. Duncan has a vast knowledge of every aspect of the real estate industry and has successfully owned and operated a well known agency on Sydney’s North Shore for nearly 20 years.

Janice has been a highly respected and valued member of the Elders team since 2001 and has received awards in recognition of her excellent sales effort. ‘I have a firm belief in maintaining strong communication lines,’ says Janice.

‘This ensures that all parties are up to date and informed throughout every step of the process.’

Duncan and Janice believe that selling property should be a pleasant experience and having complete confidence in your appointed agent, with the knowledge that your best interests are being protected, is of great importance.

Another local business which has had a change ownership in recent times is Bangalow Real Estate, which has undergone a thorough restructure and upgrade of the premises, the equipment and facilities since Mary O’Connor took over in December last year.

The Elders at Bangalow team headed up by new owners Janice Maple and Duncan Lorimer pictured centre

Mary and her dedicated sales team now also offer a totally revamped Property Management Department which is rapidly expanding with professional service to property owners and investors, while nurturing quality tenants.

Scott from Scott Harvey Real Estate says that one of the new things in real estate is the type of property buyer looking at the market. ‘Buyers are becoming more educated with the internet,’ says Scott. ‘Ten per cent of our sales came from up north in 2009, but for 2010, it was up to 30 per cent, however, the local response in the main comes

from print media.’ With the rise in business Scott is keen to put on a new sales person in the coming months.

Brian Grant, Chris Hayward and Morag Page have formed the very solid long-term sales team at George and Fuhrmann Real Estate.

Brian says that GNF are always playing a large part in sponsoring new and traditional cultural, sporting and community activities.

He also says that the market is coming into a busy time of the season. ‘Recent economic trends have seen a slowing of the market; however, spring always brings buyers back to our area,’ he says.

Lois Buckett Real Estate has planted a foot squarely in the new century. They have set up a wide social media network including Facebook and Twitter pages and a blog on their website, and they will soon be uploading a series of videos onto YouTube. They are also looking forward to the new season and have already launched their Spring Property Guide.

So if you are looking for something new, be it a new home, a new business or a new way of looking at the property market, Bangalow has lots of new things on offer.

Property in Focus

Warm north facing 8000m2 block only a five minute drive from Byron Bay “Beausoleil” is the perfect two-storey home offering all the amenities for the growing family or as a couple’s retreat. Walking distance to the Cape Byron Steiner School, and the Byron School bus at the door. West Byron’s new sports fields are only a five minute bike ride away, and there is even a lovely warm paddock for the family pony.

Established tropical gardens surround the home and the 15m salt water pool, giving seclusion and privacy. The home is north facing, filled with wonderful light and warm winter sun. The large open living area has polished timber floors and opens onto the balcony, capturing the distant rolling hills and ocean glimpses.

The modern kitchen has all amenities and is open to the family room. There are three large bedrooms, all with warm winter sun. The main bedroom is spacious with its own balcony, overlooking the pool and garden. The main bathroom has been recently renovated, and there is a second bathroom downstairs. There is air conditioning throughout the home, and a cosy slow combustion heater in the living area.

The large two bay shed has many possibilities: extended dwelling (SCA) or great horse stables. This property has been dearly loved for over 20 years, and is now ready for new owners.

Address: “Beausoleil”, 15 Bay Vista Lane, Ewingsdale.

Open house: Saturday 11am-12pm Price: $1,275,000 Contact: Kaye Wilkie 0412 856 208 Ray White Byron Bay 6685 6222.

Backlash Congratulations to the creator(s) of the Facebook page â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Byron Shire Youth Road Toll A Tribute To Our Local Fallen Friends R.I.P.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; It is a moving tribute and also has a practical purpose: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;By clicking â&#x20AC;&#x153;Likeâ&#x20AC;? on this page, you pledge that you will drive safely and not drink and drive on all Byron Shire roads and most importantly SLOW DOWN!!!!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Q Q Q Q

And support for the other local Facebook page â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bring Woolies to Mullumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; continues to grow, with 245 fans as of last Monday.

As one fan notes on the page: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;If there is no demand for Woolies then their supermarket will become non-viable. That will be the true indicator of whether or not the majority of the town are in favour of Woolies or not!â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Yes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your choice.

However there is a cuckoo in the nest who has left a YouTube link to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Beast File: Woolies and Coles (HUNGRY BEAST)â&#x20AC;&#x2122;.
