Byron’s Belle collapse Keeping it local and connected probe widens Ray Moynihan
Investigations into the collapsed Belle real estate franchise have widened, with the government announcing Fair Trading is now working on the case with other law-enforcement agencies. The Office of Fair Trading revealed last week it was investigating ‘irregularities’ of more than $550,000 in the upmarket agency’s trust funds, and it is currently analysing data from confiscated computers and statements from Belle’s former agents. Sarah Dougan, Belle Byron’s principal who has a background in financing real estate deals, denies any intentional wrongdoing and claims the trust funds were ‘put out of whack by a major property settlement’. Ms Dougan says the amount of money unaccounted for is nowhere near $550,000, but she has so far declined The Echo’s repeated requests to provide more details of the irregularities.
Over-valued properties While there are conflicting versions of what went wrong at Belle, its collapse opens a rare window into the complex dealings at the upper end of Byron’s property market. In December, local newspapers reported enthusiastically on the ‘health’ of the Byron market, stating that several of the Belle agency’s luxury properties were ‘selling like hot cakes’, though more than six months later a number of those sales have failed to eventuate. In one case, three exclusive properties in Massinger, Carlyle and Childe Streets were being sold through Belle to a single buyer for well over two million dollars each, prices believed by some local agents to be far in excess of market value. The Echo understands the buyers were offered a guarantee of rents worth up to $200,000 a year for each of these three properties, although all three sales have so far failed to settle.
Sarah Dougan says they failed because of a financial difficulty on the part of the seller, who told The Echo he was unable to make any public comment at this time. Local real estate agent Rose Wanchap says in her opinion the prices of the three properties may have each been up to a million dollars above market value, and that sales being announced by Belle had created a ‘false spike’ in Byron’s upmarket property prices.
Deals failed Ms Dougan rejected claims Belle’s values were above market. In another case just last month, Belle’s Byron office was helping to arrange the sale of the Broken Head property belonging to former barrister Tim Gotterson. At one point in negotiations the deal involved a complex financial arrangement which appeared to potentially inflate the real price of the transaction. Documents and emails exchanged between Tim Gotterson and Sarah Dougan, and provided by Mr Gotterson to The Echo, suggest the arrangement involved the seller lending $500,000 to a potential buyer to help him make the purchase. If the first two repayments of $100,000 each were made ahead of schedule, the rest of the repayments would not be required. Though the deal ultimately failed, if successful it could have resulted in the sale price being as much as $300,000 more than what the seller would actually have received from the buyer. Sarah Dougan says she would not condone a situation where a published sale price was different from the price actually paid. She also confirmed that for some sales she would not act as a sales agent, but instead would act as a broker and take a fee for arranging finance, though it is unclear whether that was the case with the proposed Broken Head deal.

The wet didn’t keep over 400 people from the launch of the Byron Movement at Durrumbul Hall on Saturday. Co-founded by Will Scott, Stewart Ford and 25 other local people, the event celebrated the launch of a multimedia interactive website which aims to provide a ‘tree music and cultural platform for the area.’ Live music by Fyah Walk, Raz Bin
Sam and the Lion I Band, Danny Ross and Shai Shriki were just some of the acts, along with tree planting, audiovisual displays, speakers on sustainability and coal-seam gas (CSG) and Sea Shepherd information tables. Will told The Echo, ‘We hope the platform inspires more independence and a more enriching quality of life through connection to a coexisting,
sustainable and balanced business and environmental society. Real freedom is achieved by growing your own food, and being self-sufficient with power and water, while ensuring you still have enough money to operate on a global commerce driven earth. ‘Through connections and education we can forge a better path.’ For more visit www.byronmovement.com.
Council puts a price on using sports fields Hans Lovejoy
In the ever-expanding effort to extract more revenue, the cash-strapped Byron Council is asking sporting clubs and schools to consider a draft policy that will see them paying for field use and maintenance. Mary Ashton, from North Coast Trophies in Brunswick Heads, has a longtime association with sporting continued on page 2 clubs in the area. She told The Echo
Council’s time-frame for submissions was way too short, and requested an extension on the policy. ‘This came out in the first week of the school holidays, which is a huge disadvantage to those parents and coaches who are away at the moment,’ she says. While she agrees it’s important to have a policy, Ms Ashton is concerned by the lack of detail in the policy and the proposed licences. ‘There’s no certainty for the clubs.
We need to find out more.’ There are 23 sporting fields in Byron Shire managed by Council, and the draft policy gives an example of Pine Avenue in Mullumbimby, and how the pricing will be calculated. Council claims the cost of managing that ground per season (26 weeks) is $4,443.92, and through a 15 per cent subsidy, a club would pay $666.58. This is based on using the facility continued on page 3

Former barrister Tim Gotterson – who is also president of the parents and citizens at Byron Bay Public School – says in his opinion the possible explanations for inflated sales prices could be that they can help to increase potential borrowings from banks, and can create the impression of a rapidly rising market, which in turn pushes up the price of future sales in the area. Mr Gotterson told The Echo he welcomed the investigations by state officials, and that he’d decided to speak publicly because he was worried about the damage being done to community trust by some of the activities in the local property market. While regulators will not reveal the nature of their investigations, it’s understood officials from the Office of Fair Trading will be returning to Byron Bay to continue their
interviews, and the Commissioner has made a very public call for anyone affected by the ‘irregularities’ at Belle to contact him at 13 32 20. Late Friday the Minister for Fair Trading Anthony Roberts announced the government had widened its investigations, and Fair Trading was now working with other lawenforcement agencies. What is clear is that a number of property owners are unhappy over their dealings with Belle in Byron.

ron franchise, over the border on the Gold Coast, Queensland’s Office of Fair Trading has confirmed it is conducting a major investigation of possible breaches of laws covering real estate agents, centred around deals involving upmarket properties on Hedges Avenue at Mermaid Beach. The Echo understands the two investigations are totally unrelated. Two months ago The Australian reported on controversial transactions at Mermaid Beach, involving allegations of hidden deals that can artificially inflate the prices recorded for house sales. In one case, according to The Australian investigation, official records showed a property being sold for $18 million, but the seller later revealed he had given a $3 million ‘rebate’ to the buyer. The Queensland Police Fraud and Corporate Crime Group confirmed to The Echo this week that they were ‘investigating a complaint in relation Inflated prices in QLD to a 2007 property transaction At the same time as Fair on Hedges Avenue, Mermaid Trading New South Wales is Beach’, but they could not comrunning its probe of Belle’s By- ment further.

Dahlsen is currently looking at options for seeking compensation to cover his costs associated with a failed sale. Chief executive of the Parramatta Eels Leagues Club Paul Osborne – who recently purchased an upmarket Massinger Street house through Belle – is understood to have had a disagreement over guarantees of rental income from the property. He told The Echo the matter was now in the hands of his solicitor who is assessing his options. The potential returns from holiday rentals appear to have become increasingly important in valuations of exclusive Byron property, despite questions over the legality of some forms of holiday letting. In April, during a confidential session, Byron Shire Council authorised its staff to ‘manage the litigation’ of ‘potential compliance matters’ involving properties in residential zones being used as essentially tourist accommodation.

The law on locking the CSG gate Hans Lovejoy
Lawyer Michele Joncourt from S+P Lawyers in Byron Bay is advising Northern Rivers producers not to be too hasty to shut their farm gate to mining companies who are keen to explore natural gas reserves. As the debate over coalseam gas exploration on the North Coast continues, the NSW Farmers Association recently held a legal forum to advise on the best way to deal with approaches from mining companies for access to land. Ms Joncourt says she attended the forum, and claims it wasn’t simply a case of farmers telling mining companies they weren’t interested in having their land explored. ‘The Crown owns underground gas and minerals,’ Ms
Joncourt said. ‘The government sells licences to mining companies so they can access these underground resources. ‘While many farmers might like to lock the gate, the problem is that, in most cases, the government will not allow the miners to be locked out.’ She claims the Access Arrangement contract presented by mining companies to farm owners gives them 28 days to reach an agreement with the company, and that mining companies may seek an arbitration hearing if the contract is ignored. ‘…a farmer might be compelled to provide access to their property on terms they don’t agree with.’ Ms Joncourt says being legally represented can offer a potentially better outcome for landowners, and added that

Charges for casual users will be determined through Council’s annual budget process, says the draft. As of going to press, Council’s Phillip Holloway announced the draft policy will be extended to August 26. ‘We are intending on meeting with groups over the next few weeks to discuss the draft policy, and to ascertain the areas of concern,’ he said. The policy is available on Council’s website.
where landowners choose to negotiate access arrangements, the mining company has to pay the reasonable costs of obtaining initial legal advice.
EDO concurs Senior solicitor for the Environmental Defender’s Office (EDO), Ian Ratcliff, agrees with Ms Joncourt’s assessment of the laws under which mining companies operate. ‘Under the Petroleum (Onshore) Act, the Crown (ie the
relevant Minister) can invite applications for, and grant, “petroleum titles” over the land – either licences or leases – to prospect in the first instance, and eventually to produce gas etc.’ He says the lease gives the holder the ‘exclusive right’ to conduct petroleum mining operations. ‘So it could be said that the state government owns the gas on or beneath the land, and may give rights to prospect for and/or extract it to the relevant company.’
Council’s tourism group refutes BU The apparent lack of cohesion between Byron’s business chamber, Byron United (BU), and Council’s Tourism Advisory Committee (TAC) continued this week with TAC’s chairperson Cr Basil Cameron claiming that BU didn’t apply to be on their board. The comments came after last week’s Echo published BU president Sevegne Newton’s accusations that BU wasn’t invited by TAC, and their request was ‘knocked back’. Members of the TAC are appointed by Council based on applications received, Cr Cameron told The Echo. ‘Byron United did not apply. ‘Businesses in Byron Bay have been represented by a member from the Byron Visitors Information Centre.’
‘As chairperson of the TAC, I have attended Byron United board and member meetings as part of ongoing consultation. I encourage Byron United to continue the constructive discussions that have occurred at these meetings. ‘The TAC has brought together Council, industry and community for the first time and members have worked hard in their role to provide quality advice to Council in the implementation of the Tourism Management Plan (2008 –2018).’ As of going to press, BU president Sevegne Newton was unavilable for comment as she is currently in Bali. TAC documents are available at www.byron.nsw.gov.au/ committees/tourism-advisorycommittee.

Planning overhaul defers developments already approved. It may take longer and be more convoluted, but West Byron still has a pathway to approval.
Simeon Michaels
The biggest reform on NSW planning legislation in thirty years is underway. The state Liberal government announced this week an 18-month review to be led by former Environment Minister and current Land and Environment Court Commissioner, Tim Moore, along with former Labor minister Ron Dyer.
Rotten planning ‘Rotten’ is how NSW Planning Minister Brad Hazzard describes the former Labor government’s approach to planning. ‘The community is crying out for change,’ he said â€˜â€Śand we are ready for fresh ideas and consultation which will kickstart an era of integrity and transparency.’ The comments come as investigations by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) into former planning minister Tony Kelly continue. Mr Kelly is defending claims he backdated a letter approving the highly controversial purchase of a $12.2 million dollar former union holiday retreat in the last weeks of the Keneally government. Under Part 3A of the previous planning legislation, projects valued at over $100 million could bypass local council to receive approval at state level. It was ‘a system where a minister can make extraordinarily wide-ranging decisions to impose developments,’ said Liberal Leader Barry O’Farrell, adding that his intention was the ‘return of local planning powers to local communities.’ Byron Shire has certainly witnessed the heavy-handed use of state approvals. Woolworths at Mullumbimby and Becton at North Byron were both approved at state level despite facing massive local opposition. A seniors housing estate at Suffolk Park was also approved. While applications under Part 3A are no longer accepted,
Another avenue for circumvention lies with the Joint Regional Planning Panels, which will continue to assess projects with a value between $20 and $100 million. In the past, there have been examples of developers inflating projected costs over $100 While Part 3A applications are on hold, developers have other million to step onto the Part avenues for approval by state government.

Pride and prejudice at Lennox skate park Simeon Michaels
Lennox Head skaters are stoked with their new skate park; however, staff and owners of some surrounding businesses say it’s out of control, citing late night under-age drinking and fights at the facility. Critics blame the location, which is behind the main shopping precinct and is not visible from the main street. The park was proposed on the beachside reserve near the surf club, but that site was rejected. Oasis Skate Parks is the company that constructed the park, and its director David Clancy told The Echo, ‘That’s a huge area near the beach which would have been suitable, but there was a small group who were against it from the start, and would never have allowed it to be built near the beach. They just seem to be anti-youth and opposed it.’ Or perhaps it was fear of the unknown? While the park may not be in the optimum location, Mr Clancy says he’s satisfied that it is sufficiently visible. ‘It’s quite a busy laneway, right next to the shops and the oval. There’s always plenty of people around.’ A 24-hour wide-angle CCTV monitoring system is also installed and, while the park receives some lighting from the street, it isn’t purpose lit after dark, which is specifically to discourage night use. Mr Clancy adds that location isn’t everything. ‘Antisocial behaviour seldom comes from skaters; it’s from people

with nothing else to do. If a skatepark is well designed and well used, you won’t get problems. It’s like anything – if you build dodgy tennis courts and no-one plays there, it’s going to become a hangout.’
Police comment Police reports corroborate Mr Clancy’s claim that skaters are not causing problems. ‘Police have been called out six times, but there’s been no violence,’ says Ballina police inspector Gary Cowan. ‘It’s antisocial behaviour; drinking, yelling, littering. One report states that there were about 40 kids at the park who scattered when police turned up – none of them ran off carrying skateboards.’ No doubt there were teething problems with the park, but things have settled down considerably. ‘It’s always chilled when I come here,’ says a lanky youth. It’s midday on a Saturday and he has half a six-pack un-
der the bench, but he appears well over 18. Another younger teenager of about 12 adds, ‘There was one fight here when the park opened. They were some kids from West Ballina, not East Ballina. They weren’t skaters, they were some other kids. They came here and were tagging and causing shit.’ He says the next day local kids spray-painted over the tagging, returning the ramp to its original grey. As for underage drinking, it still happens; however, the skate park is just the latest location for an ongoing problem. A muscle-bound kid with tattoos up to his neck says, ‘Before they used to drink over there [pointing to the oval], or at the bus shelter.’
Lennox Sk8 Widely credited for keeping the peace and respecting the space is the Lennox Sk8 team, formed when local youths Ryan Kelso, Taylor Hession and Blake Gilmore overheard
adults discussing problems at the park. They decided to do something about it, and formed Lennox Sk8, which now has 51 financial members and 140 Facebook friends. Their opening day on June 11 is widely credited as the turning point at the park, where local kids took ownership and started to defend it. All LennoxSk8 members sign on to a Code of Conduct, agreeing to wear safety gear, take turns, and look out for each other. When words aren’t enough, gentle enforcement goes a long way – when one local kid pulled out a pen to tag the park, older kids seized him, put him on the ground, and used the pen to draw all over his face. Primitive, but effective. ‘Look around you,’ says a young skater. ‘No tagging. No broken glass. Go to other skate parks and it’s everywhere.’ While some issues remain, by and large the kids have their act together, and it’s the adults who need to tie their shoelaces. The kids encourage neighbours, parents and shopkeepers to come and talk to them immediately if there are any problems. ‘If you witness antisocial behaviour, take an adult perspective and go talk to them about it,’ says David Clancy. ‘Someone may need your help’. Kids also want support for them to skate. ‘More skaters equals less problems,’ they said. Lennox Sk8 is planning its next event in early Spring. Skate on!
Lennox affordable housing units rejected A proposal for 74 affordable rental dwellings in Lennox Head has been rejected by the state government and Ballina Council’s Joint Regional Planning Panel (JRPP). The proposal by property developer Chris Condon was referred to the regional panel as it involves affordable hous-
ing with a capital investment value exceeding $5 million. The two parcels of land are located off the end of Greenfield Road, Tallow Wood Place, and Satinwood Place; the development would have involved the erection of 13 separate buildings of single- and two-storey construction.
Associated carparking areas and communal open space was also part of the application. The panel consist of members appointed by state government and local council. The aim, according to JRPP, is to establish independent, merit-based decision making and advice to the minister on
regionally significant development proposals. Chair of the Northern regional panel, Mr Garry West, said, ‘The panel considers that it would not be in the public interest to consent to the development considering the relevant land use and planning regulation inconsistencies.’

Local News RTA proposals howled down by over 200 Bangalow residents
Hotrod heaven

A casual conversation over a beer between two mates has turned into a popular annual event for the local community. The Back To Brunswick Hot Rod Run celebrated its third anniversary last weekend, with a turn-out of over 400 soupedup vehicles. Co-organiser Peter Paynter told The Echo that attendees travelled from as far afield as Darwin and Victoria, with one ex-local flying all the way from Russia. In addition, two American ‘superstars’ had been invited as special guests, Jimmy Shine from Discovery Channel’s Hard Shine and Pete Chapouris, whose customised 1934 Ford was used in the movie The California Kid.
Hot rods originated in the US in the 1930s when the engines of usually old cars were modified in various ways, or ‘hopped up’, to achieve higher performance. Ocean Shores-based Peter said that it was a full weekend event, beginning on the Friday night – although some people had arrived the previous Sunday in order to make a holiday of it. One highlight was the Christmas In July lunch at the Billinudgel Hotel on Saturday; on Sunday there was a Show and Shine in Banner Park, Brunswick Heads. ‘It’s just the joy of driving the cars and being with likeminded people,’ he said. In the first year the event attracted 175 vehicles, last year 355 and this year a total of 481.
A reported 200 residents turned up last week at the A&I Hall to hear RTA’s plans for the Tintenbar to Ewingsdale (T2E) highway interchange at Bangalow. Following the presentation of the RTA’s design options, Ballina MP Don Page – who called the meeting – called for a show of hands from the audience, and the plans were rejected. According to Tony Hart, president of the Bangalow Progress Association, ‘The key message Bangalow gave the RTA at the meeting is that it doesn’t want the interchange. ‘What’s more, we don’t need an interchange – we can use the old highway to get to Ross Lane and the south, and the government will save some $5 million! ‘What we expect to happen is
that Don will take our community’s clear message back to the government and finally get some action for Bangalow on this. ‘The Association has offered to work with the RTA to further develop Bangalow’s alternative low-impact proposal for management of incidents in the St Helena Tunnel.’ Mr Hart said Bangalow’s proposal is to retain the town’s existing slip roads to and from the present Pacific Highway so that locals can access the T2E at Ewingsdale or at Ross Lane. An emergency access gate to the T2E would be provided at Bangalow to allow fast access to the St Helena Tunnel by police, ambulance and fire engine vehicles in the event of an accident.

Keeping mums cyber-connected
A new free e-mag, Mother of the Bay, will be launching its first edition and will be available on line July 25. ‘It’s aimed for the modern day mother to help stay connected,’ says its editor and
founder, Amanda Bennett, ‘and will include interviews and articles from local mothers, along with videos and audio inserts so the reader can make the most of this multimedia platform.’
‘Mumtrepreneur’ Amanda says she created the publication along with seven other mums. ‘Looking at ourselves as mothers, we often feel we are expected to act a certain way,’ she says. ‘I felt a real need for
women to come together, communicate and feel that how they live their lives is okay. ‘The most important thing for me with this magazine is to somehow help women get back to themselves and to recognise that in order to excel as mothers we have to cherish and nurture ourselves as women, as well as nurturing our children.’ The Mother of the Bay team will be holding a colourful and floral ‘M’ planting at the Pass Beach on Saturday July 23 between 10am and 3pm.

A consultation process within the community resulted in a mostly supportive response to the development – according to the West Byron Project’s newsletter of October 2010 – provided it were sympathetic to sustainable social and environmental issues. West Byron Project spokesperson Carolyn Swindell told The Echo that affordable housing remains an important ele-
ment in the aims of the development. ‘More specific detail on this and other considerations are more appropriately dealt with under a master planning phase further in the planning process,’ she said. The project does not come under Part 3A, NSW’s controversial planning provision which gives the planning minister consent authority for major projects deemed to be of state or regional significance.

Rod was kind, gentle, humorous and a gracious man right to the last breath. This was exceptional, given the incredible suffering that lung and skin cancer had dealt him towards the end of his life, on top of the other struggles he had in his life with mental health issues. Penny, his partner of 25 years (it was their anniversary on Monday July 11), his son Ben, his sisters Mary-Jane and Janet, as well as all his step-children, step-grand children, grandchild Lilyana and friends and extended family loved him dearly and will miss him deeply. He truly was a great man among men. His funeral was Monday July 18 at St Mary’s Catholic Church, Woodford Street, Maclean. In lieu of flowers we are asking for donations to a fund for publishing an anthology of his poems. For those who wish to contribute, you can send a cheque, to 2/62 The Boulevarde, Lewisham 2049. Poem by Rod Gibson: The wind blows the trees about as if they were in a wrestling bout I stand
here in my blue pyjamas feeding meat to my pet piranhas The world is spinning slowly I’m told the Sahara is hot, the South Pole is cold I think I might be mentally ill. I decide to give the piranhas a thrill I place my left hand in the water, the room echoes with my laughter
They strip my hand to the bone – It only takes one hand to write a poem.

Workshop on how to be a healthy sceptic World leader offer tips for preventing useless or harmful tests and treatments Internationally recognised general practitioner and researcher Professor Paul Glasziou will present at a workshop in Byron Bay next month offering tips to the general public on how to make more informed decisions about their health. Currently a professor at Bond University on the Gold Coast, Dr Glasziou has recently returned from the United Kingdom, where he was a professor at Oxford University.
Looking to Expand your Business in Byron Bay & Beyond? BNI is an international referral based business networking group with a successful local chapter meeting every Wednesday 7.30am-9am Byron Bay
A world leader on using good evidence to make health decisions, Paul has also worked as a part-time general practitioner for the past twenty years, based for a long time in Brisbane. ‘Being an informed consumer is important to your health’ says Professor Glasziou, ‘but that requires understanding some simple principles about how to tell what works and what doesn’t work.’ The three-hour workshop on Saturday August 13 will include practical examples involving common drugs, diagnostic tests and operations, and it will introduce people to reliable and independent sources of good healthcare information.
It will be run by award-winning author and global health writer, Ray Moynihan, who is a regular columnist with the British Medical Journal and a parttime reporter with The Echo. While both Glasziou and Moynihan regularly present at conferences around the world for health professionals or journalists, this will be the first time they have shared their insights at a workshop specifically designed for the public.
Reliable information ‘The workshop is designed to help people distinguish between unhealthy hype and more reliable healthcare information,’ says Moynihan. ‘The aim is to help partici-
pants and their loved ones avoid what’s useless or harmful, while learning more about the many safe and effective medical treatments available.’ The workshop will introduce a particularly valuable source of evidence about thousands of tests and treatments, which comes from the internationally respected Cochrane Collaboration – information which is available free to everyone on line, and via local libraries. It will take place at the Byron Community Centre on Saturday August 13 between 10am and 1pm. Numbers of places are limited and bookings are open now via the Community Centre at 6685 6807, or via their website.

Abbott spruiks baseless fantasies Volume 26 #06
July 19, 2011
Elitist corporation tells us we are elitist The word elitism has been hijacked by the very people who are, by definition, elitists. I am of course talking about the aptly named News Limited corporation – there is constant referral to the ‘Latte-sipping innercity elite’ in op-eds throughout what can be only described as the most powerful media empire on the planet. Elitism in this case refers to those who consider themselves more intellectually advanced than others, and look down on those who don’t understand the same concepts or vocabulary. Those who are against learning are just as nauseating as pompous snobs who think they are better than others. It seems their argument is that the aspiration to acquire more knowledge is a bad thing. And while Australians aspire to elite athletes, we seldom celebrate our brains. It’s a collective tall-poppy attitude that no doubt originates from convict ancestry and a colonial past. In News Limited’s case, the pressures of producing copy for the neverending theatre-driven media-cycle has resulted in sneering at anyone who doesn’t fit into their narrow world view. And this is their ultimate downfall. The media, like politicians, should always aim to transcend ego and personal vendettas and provide good judgment and leadership. But if working for Murdoch, I imagine that would be a difficult task. Elitism is not a bad word, but it is a distraction from the only truth I know: every human is born with a yearning to learn, experience and love. Learning becomes knowledge, and knowledge can, hopefully, become wisdom. I know this ‘cause I read it in a book somewhere. Those with true wisdom never look down at, or point to the failings of others, and they certainly don’t end up working for sanctimonious selfrighteous dinosaur media conglomerates. I am feeling some sense of irony here, so, in conclusion: Thank you Henry Lawson, thank you Mark Twain, Gandhi, Martin Luther King and Nikola Tesla. It’s through these elitists that we may keep evolving and continue to explore inner and outer space. Hans Lovejoy, editor

aul Keating sums up Tony Abbott’s current political message thus: ‘Give me the job or I’ll wreck the place.’ Well, it takes one to know one. This was precisely the spirit in which Keating conducted his own campaign to wrest the Labor Party leadership from Bob Hawke in 1991. He made it clear that he was not going to give up, and unless and until he succeeded he would continue to destabilise the government and deny Hawke any clear air in which to assert his authority. And eventually the party succumbed; not because they particularly wanted Keating as leader, but because it was the only way to end the impasse. Most leadership challenges follow a similar path; Hawke’s own pursuit of Bill Hayden and John Howard’s relentless undermining of Andrew Peacock are obvious examples while Malcolm Turnbull’s more gentlemanly removal of Brendan Nelson would probably have gone the same way if Nelson had not effectively given up. And Abbott’s own execution of Turnbull was so speedy only because his backers, led by the ruthless Nick Minchin, made it clear that the alternative was a civil war which would drag on until they got their way. Seen from outside, these disputes look petty, even childish: the temper tantrums of a spoiled child screaming: ‘It’s my toy and I can break it if I want to.’ They were of serious, even life-threatening importance to the party, but had little effect on the lives of the general populace. Abbott, however, has taken the idea to a new and far more dangerous level. He is now signalling that he is ready and willing to drag the
whole country into recession to achieve his ambition. Ignoring the scientists, economists, the CSIRO, the federal Treasury, the Productivity Commission and any other rational voices seeking to restore the debate to a sensible level, Abbott continues to barnstorm the country ranting about towns wiped off the map, industries closed down, the loss of untold thousands
At a time when the economy is vulnerable, the leader of the loyal opposition is quite deliberately putting in the boot. by Mungo MacCallum of jobs and the bankrupting of the nation’s households – Australia’s economy, indeed its entire way of life, reduced to a grim third-world socialism. And by doing so, he is in grave danger of spruiking a self-fulfilling prophecy, even without the introduction of a carbon tax or any other kind of policy. Consumer confidence is plummeting and many investment decisions are delayed, not because of fear of a carbon tax but because of the uncertainty induced by Abbott’s threat to repeal it. The housing sector is slipping and retail sales are already in the doldrums. Obviously Abbott is not to blame for all of the slump; the economic situation in Europe and the United States is contributing to a worldwide reluctance to spend. But this only makes Abbott’s behaviour harder to forgive. At a time when the economy is vulnerable, the leader of the loyal opposition is quite delib-

carbon tax. It, like the whole economy, will grow at a marginally slower pace than it might otherwise have. And the same applies to jobs: overall many more will be created, but not quite as many as without the tax. Of course, there will be some movement within and between industries, as there always has been; particularly in times of high employment, as we have now and can confidently expect to continue, the Australian work force is a mobile one. But with or without a carbon tax, the prospect has seldom been brighter. And as for the cost of living: the predicted increase is 0.7 per cent, barely one quarter of that imposed by the GST, and for most people there will be compensation even for that small amount. The worst off will be a family on $3,000 a week – yes, a week; these poor souls will be up for just $10 extra on the weekly household bill. The point is that even if all
these Treasury forecasts are out by 100 per cent – and the Treasury was just about spot on about the far more disruptive GST – the carbon tax will make very little difference to the domestic economy; it isn’t meant to. It is meant to change spending patterns, not to curtail them. Some things will certainly become more expensive, but as they do, cheaper alternatives will become available – Economics 101. So far at least Julia Gillard has failed to get this message across due largely to the fact that, as Abbott keeps reminding us, before the election she said there would not be a carbon tax at all; her change of mind since has provoked a backlash of resentment that John Howard’s ‘non-core’ promises never did. And Abbott is stoking the resentment and thriving on it, and brutally driving down the economy in the process. There used to be serious strictures on politicians who took this road; the voters punished them for what was seen as putting their own political advantage above that of their country, a stance akin to treason. That appears not to be happening to Abbott in the present case; his mendacious and short-sighted demagoguery is somehow more acceptable to a jaded electorate than the cause about which they were so enthusiastic less than five years ago. And if Abbott can indeed induce sufficient fear to force the economy into recession, why, this may be just what he needs to propel him into the Lodge. And then, of course it will all be worthwhile. As the man said: Treason doth never prosper – here’s the reason: When it do prosper, none dare call it treason.

Addicted to shopping and other drugs Q I would like to point out a furphy in Mandy Nolan’s column last week. I agree with her on her rave about capitalism except for one salient point. The milk is not necessarily always cheaper at Woolworths. A friend told me that his particular brand of milk was much more expensive at the Mullumbimby WWs than at our locally owned Dennetts. So go figure. It’s obvious Mandy has not been shopping at our new community-unaware, not-sofresh, high-mileage-food supermarket. Do they know their own address yet or is their mail getting redirected? To ease their heavy-handed transition into our quiet little town perhaps they could match Santos’s generous donations to ethical causes. No, I can’t imagine that happening either. Pure capitalism
has no room for ethics, consideration or even admitting responsibility for the stress, reduced house prices and drastically lowered amenity of this otherwise lovely part of town.
Our addictions create fabulous profits for Woolworths. In his book Dufty cites years of research which conclude that ‘millions... are subject to pathological drowsiness and hypoglycaemia due to functional hyperinsulinism’, which means that sugar gums up brain functioning, perceptions and reactions. It does this by giving our blood sugar a spike which triggers the release of insulin. When the insulin has travelled all around the blood vessels dealing with the spike, we are left with even lower blood sugar than we had to begin with. That’s the easiest way to feel drowsy and put on weight. But the worst thing is that sugar causes chemical dependence (which keeps us going back for more) and, according to nutritionist Weston A Price, physical degeneration on
a global scale. Sugar labelling has many different guises. It is often given different names on the same list so we’re confused about just how much sugar is added to a product. Look for items ending in ‘ose’ such as sucrose, dextrose, glucose, lactose and fructose (this is especially bad because it is often derived from genetically modified corn syrup). About 128 different names for sugar may be found via Google. Mullumbimby could be the exception to the Woolworths’ rule-of-thumb domination of communities, thanks to lively debate in The Echo. For a great overview of the industrialisation of our food supply, Helena Norberg-Hodge’s film The Economics of Happiness will be shown in Mullum this week.

Like most of the recreational fishing population, I feel responsible for my waste product and actually despise fishers who are too lazy, stupid or insensitive to remove their unwanted fishing waste. Biodegradable fishing lures, hooks and sinkers are also available so broader progress is being made in recreational fishing circles. Unfortunately, no amount of mismanaged stormwater runoff, complete with cigarette butts, plastic bags, condoms, nappies, pharmaceuticals, tampons and syringes contributed by non-angling fraternities, into the gaping mouths of loggerhead turtles seems to have a place in these debates and fishers are often wearing the entire weight of the extended pollution problem.
I am always heartened to read the latest advice proffered to councillors by our grateful constituents. It appears that there is no area of local government endeavour where it cannot be demonstrated unequivocally that the elected dross has cocked up in what is an obvious and pathetically simple task. The repair of the ubiquitous potholes, skirting the Bay CBD, playing fields for the masses, saving the habitat of the lesser spotted hippy, stimulating the economy so the tills of the town ring out their gratitude, laying waste the legal minefield and free beer for all the workers – it is all within the power of any councillor with the intelligence to put on their own socks. Ask anyone! So it is with a heavy heart that I acknowledge my own and fellow councillors’ shortcomings and look forward to the time when Fast Buck$ dons his crown of thorns, shoulders

Mullumbimby Q I
just loved Juergen Klein’s assertion (Letters, July 12) that ‘Woolworths Mullumbimby wants us to be fat and stupid!’ I couldn’t agree more, although for different reasons. Woolworths is very likely the biggest sugar-pusher in the whole of Australia. The ‘fresh food’ moniker is a furphy; supermarket shelves contain far more long-life, packaged, processed products loaded with sugar, ie industrialised food, than anything fresh. Sugar, according to William Dufty, author of Sugar Blues, is an addictive drug.

A form of retro fishing is taking place right under our noses but the old administration and The Greens couldn’t see the value when they locked us out of our ocean. Kayaks are popular fishing vessels and Cape Byron Marine Park completely failed to encourage feasible opportunities for kayak fishers to enjoy, understand and appreciate this Marine Park. Actually, our marine park zonings are so heavily weighted against kayak fishing that I recently bought a petrol-driven motor boat. When I was exclusively fishing under human power, I personally accrued 1.4 tons
of carbon and travelled up to 180km per week up and down the coast in my quest to extract the same legally available table fish whose access is completely unachievable to vessels like kayaks in Cape Byron Marine Park. Now that I own a power boat, I’ve upped the carbon ante because catching a snapper outside Cape Byron is environmentally friendlier than buying pre-filleted Mekong Delta Catfish from Vietnam via Woolies. Of course, the NSW MPA weren’t so bold as to deliberately ban kayaks; what they did was far more sinister! They banned the taking of certain
species, created legal fishing zones where these species bans were enforced and made nearshore zonings so narrow that any vessels operating in those legal habitat protection areas would be taking on a suicide mission. Then there’s the outer reefs. For four months a year kayak fishers are permitted to access that legal fishing zone but a 5km paddle past the Julians in the East Australia Current isn’t exactly what a fat holiday maker and their fat kid are going to call a reasonable access opportunity. If Mary Gardner is suggesting retro fishing, I suggest she take that matter up with Cape

ion animals. This is the same region that has wild dogs running unchecked through the bush, whose homes are built on wetlands and whose residents have choked their gardens with bamboo and other nonfood-value exotics. The same region that claims to be the Love Capital of the World is denying its children profound relationships that teach love and loyalty. I have a friend who attempted to start a business here in Byron Bay. Fed up with obstructions from Byron Shire Council, she moved to Hervey Bay. When she walked into the council offices she was greeted with ‘how can we help?’ Imagine that – how can we help? Let’s be honest: we don’t want peace. Human beings have no idea what to do with peace – in the absence of an enemy we just pick a fight with our neighbour.
If you don’t like the ugly handrails being installed at Lennox Point speak up now or forever hold your peace. If you have seen the handrails already installed get ready for more! The metres of handrail being installed as part of the cycleway in the most prime positions are ruining the view, blocking off access for fisherman and surfers to the rocks, and they do not suit the village feel of Lennox. It is a great shame that careful design has not gone into this important community asset. This cycleway had great potential. There is no doubt that a concrete path has merit in that it can provide greater amenity to the headland for people with prams, in wheelchairs, elderly people and so on. Of course, a concrete path will also have some negative aesthetic impact and it is great shame that this has not been better mitigated. For Ballina Council this is an issue of safety and public liability, so include a sign at the beginning that informs people of the possible risks, rather than spoiling the feel of the place for everyone. There is always some level of discretion when interpreting guidelines, and I realise it is a delicate balance of Council trying to manage risk/liability on this cycleway. But there are other ways. The path should have been set further back from the rocks with a safe and level grass area on its outside, which would mean there was no need for handrails. In places where handrails are unavailable they could have been wooden to match those already in place. The current design can only be described as cheap and bogstandard.

Comment/Letters
How sacred is scientific research? Michael McDonald
Not at all, if the attacks by lunatic sects of various faiths on eminent mathematicians and astronomers throughout the centuries are regarded as the benchmark. That which we don’t understand is ‘witchcraft’. And obviously not to Greenpeace, which on Thursday last week sent in three women activists to brush-cut a scientific trial of genetically modified crops at CSIRO in Canberra. It’s a clever form of protest. But would you at a local level, say, go into Woolworths and set fire to the cornflakes as a protest against its predatory pricing regime? I wouldn’t for a number of reasons, including that its staff might be intimidated by the action and the action itself would be definitively counter-productive in winning over hearts and minds. Professor Suzanne Cory, the highly intelligent president of the Australian Academy of Science, immediately condemned the destruction of the CSIRO crop. ‘This kind of mindless vandalism against science is completely unacceptable,’ she said. According to Cory, scientists must be free to conduct their work without fear or favour. ‘The trials are being conducted under licences from the Office of the Gene Technology Regulator which impose strict containment conditions.’ Naturally Cory sees the destruction as an affront to the pure aims of science. But the ‘mindless vandalism’ cannot be judged in the abstract; it is an attack on the perceived dangers of GM and science’s and industry’s abject failure to explain adequately to the consumer what’s going on. There would also be plenty of sceptics who have no faith in ‘licences from the LETTERS from page 14

Committees needed
Last week I described how Council at some time in the past abandoned its legal services committee and purported to be able to make complex legal decisions after only one discussion. I went on to complain that as soon as a court case is afoot the Council invariably votes to hand it over to the GM to ‘manage’, relying thereafter

Office of the Gene Technology Regulator’ as a means of containing or regulating anything. The greatest scientific discovery of our age is the loophole, and lawyers are firmly in control of it. They apply it in the interest of moneyed clients. For its part Greenpeace has cleverly exploited the use of ‘mums’ as an emotional protest against unknowable consequences of manipulated food. It also claims the CSIRO rejected its Freedom of Information request related to the safety of the human feeding trials, ‘along with transparent information about the commercial partnerships CSIRO has with foreign biotech companies to commercialise GM wheat’. Greenpeace also points out that ‘eight international scientists and doctors questioned the ethics and scientific rigour behind [the trial]’. You can find the Sydney Morning Herald report on that letter at
on reports and updates of unreliable quality. Reflecting on this, I recalled Jan Barham during a recent meeting asking the GM in a perplexed tone whether the legal services committee still exists or could be re-activated – something to that effect. I remember thinking ‘What, she doesn’t even know!?’ I had assumed that Council made a conscious decision to abandon the committee system, but Barham’s question makes me suspicious that it was the staff who made the change – during the last election break perhaps – and then waited to see if any-
http://bit.ly/mzI7wU. Science, like religion, cannot be allowed to act in a moral vacuum, but it is a vexed question as to how much you can legitimately interfere in its work. (And obviously it is a vexed question as to whose moral standards we apply.) There is good scientific research and bad scientific research, just as there is intelligent protest and stupid protest. Bad scientific research is applying chemicals to rabbits’ eyes in the interests of developing cosmetics, and activists were right to expose it. But if activists break into an animal lab and accidentally release a new strain of superbug into the wider environment, who then holds the moral high ground? Each moment is pregnant with moral dilemma, with cause for both celebration and grieving. Science fiction writer and scientist Arthur C Clarke summed it up poignantly in his 1955 short story The Star. A thoughtful Jesuit astrophysicist investigates the causes of a supernova in a distant galaxy. In the process he and the starship crew discover on a planet the artefacts of a highly developed, now dead civilisation. We learn at the end of the story the supernova which destroyed that civilisation was the Star of Bethlehem which heralded the birth of Jesus. Science cannot play god, say some, it has let too many bad genies out of bottles. But it was not science, it was us. The genie was out of the bottle way back when we developed big brains and opposable thumbs. There is no universal moral imperative which decides for us how science and the consequent technology must be used. Everything is sacred, nothing is sacred – we all make the choice.
one would notice. All state and federal governments operate on a committee system for good reason: it allows complex tasks to be divided up for special focus by people with appropriate interests and talents. This is good practice where workloads are heavy, when the matters under consideration are complex and where decisions have wide consequences. The committee, having looked at a matter in detail, then makes a recommendation to the full Council. This means that members of the committee after initial discussion have
a further opportunity to do research, to reflect or to lobby before they vote on it again as a member of the full Council. One of the benefits when I was on Council was that Ross Tucker invariably revealed his hand and his agenda during the committee meeting, so that before the full meeting I would have time to refute his notions or fill any gaps in the information he put forward. To lob a complex matter cold in front of councillors and expect them to make an informed and considered decision in one sitting is ridicucontinued on page 16

Zero sum games in energy stakes Q Thank you, Echo, for your ex-
cellent online edition because I’ve moved recently from Mullum to the shores of the largest saltwater lake in Australia, and can still read of the mercurial goings-on in the Byron domain. Brilliant. Here, however, I’m soothed by the soft rumble and faint turbine whine of the huge electricity generators dotted around the lake. Despite that, being an electron locavore, I am comforted in the knowledge that my electricity is fresh, local and its electronmiles are not stretched by transmission line loss. (By the bye, I also have my fluoridated water fix on tap.) I’m sure Echo letter readers will recall that weeks and weeks ago Sapoty Brook took me to task for having the temerity to suggest that if the world is serious about reducing carbon dioxide, nuclear fission power stations need to be part of the solution. Mr Brook appears to believe that anyone holding this view is a shill or a dupe of the beleaguered nuclear industry. I wonder what Mr Brook will make of the fact that those huge multinational British Petroleum and General
Electric are major investors of their own and taxpayers money in the wind and solar energy sector. (To paraphrase Paul Keating: ‘Never get between a multinational and a bucket of subsidies.’) Need I add that Mr Brook is a passionate advocate of these very same wind and solar alternatives. Letter writer Colin Clarke has made some eminently sane, logical points outlining the contradictions inherent in the views of the anti-nuclear proselytisers and, incidentally, the anti-GM crop Luddites. I am sure he, and maybe even Mr Brook, would agree that Germany, having stated that it will phase out nuclear energy, will replace it with wind and solar but continue to rely on coal- and gas-powered stations – so that’s a win for the CO2 emitters and a zero sum game for the no-carbon generators.

The Russian Academy of Medical Sciences declared in 2006 that 212,000 people had died as a direct consequence of Chernobyl. A study published by the New York Academy of Sciences in 2009, written by scientists from the Center for Russian Environmental Policy, Moscow, the Institute of Radiation Safety, Minsk, and the Environmental Institute at Michigan University, estimated that 985,000 people have died as a result of Chernobyl. There is reason to believe the effects of Fukushima will be even worse. Only by denying the true costs of nuclear power can proponents of the industry claim it is clean, safe and economically viable. The true costs encompass all costs associated with the nuclear fuel cycle: social, economic, environmental, from mine site to final disposal, including enrichment, reprocessing, storage and security. Three hundred thousand tonnes of spent fuel, radioactive waste that will remain hazardous for 100,000 years, is temporarily stored alongside
reactors at 440 nuclear plants around the world, a steadily growing stockpile with still no solution to the problem of disposal, a costly liability that industry proponents prefer to ignore. The health effects of radioactive waste are many and varied; intense doses can be lethal within days or weeks. Lower levels of exposure can cause genetic mutations, developmental problems, birth defects, miscarriage, anemia, leukemia and cancer. All life forms are susceptible to the effects of radioactive pollutants, but children, babies and the unborn are particularly vulnerable. These contaminants cannot be detected by the senses and may take years to cause illness. As the situation at Fukushima demonstrates, radioactive waste can escape and spread into the environment, contaminating air, sea, soil, ground water and the food chain for centuries to come. Put simply, the nuclear industry poses an unacceptable threat to the integrity of nature’s life-support systems.
a lot of time was wasted. For the record I spoke in favour of Peppers’ application. The Land and Environment Court would have approved it in any case, and I couldn’t see the point in continuing a grudge that has nothing to do with the present owners or management. When I’m mayor the committee system will be re-installed as a matter of urgency. If Jan hasn’t the time she should butt out at the earliest opportunity.
people from taking up the habit of smoking. That’s bright, smoking is a habit caused by first, the government for allowing tobacco to be a legal substance, and second, not banning this substance which is addictive. That’s right, the government will not ban tobacco from being cultivated and processed into a product that causes heart disease and possibly strokes, lung cancer and who knows what other ailments, all in the name of a legal substance? What hypocrisy, and if you believe the government has your best health interests at heart, keep puffin’. If tobacco can be a legal substance for consumption, then why doesn’t the government, along with cigarette machine in pubs and clubs, allow a heroin machine? By doing that though, first

Your cars are not safe in the streets Recently, our car was stolen from of our driveway in Federal at 9.30pm while we where home. It was unlocked, stupid I know, though after 30 years who would have thought! We alerted friends and neighbours. The number of people living in the Byron hinterland who informed us of car or house theft was surprising, as was those that left their car and/or house unlocked. After speaking to police and reading your article on break-ins, I find it
unusual that so many thefts go unreported. It is hard to assess if theft is on the increase in the Byron Shire as we only hear about it when someone who has experienced personal theft decides it is beneficial to let the community know or report it to police. If you don’t already, lock up, report thefts to police and most importantly, look out for each other. By the way, the car was found two weeks after, stolen

the government and health hypocrites would have to legalise heroin and every other illegal substance like cannabis which is a natural herb plant, condemned to death back in the 1930s so the petrochemical industry could get a toe into the marketplace. Oh, they were the good old days, when hemp fibre was the material of the day; ships’ sails, ropes and even the first pair of Levi’s jeans were made from hemp material. The health of the nation is at the mercy of the government in Canberra and the tobacco industry. It’s business as usual, isn’t it?
Park, but it seems that Council is deaf to its responsibility. This construction operates approximately from 7am to 5pm Monday to Friday, 7.30 to 1 Saturday. These are legitimate hours of operation. We have had every kind of noise, including old-fashioned pile driving – a practice that shouldn’t be tolerated for environmental reasons. It would also be interesting to know if any of the properties nearby have had structural damages due to vibrations; they have been precedents associated with this practice. To add to this we have had six months of constant vehicle movement alarms that are high pitched and too loud. It is not normal that with all windows closed and truck activity more than 150m away we cannot escape such permanent noise activity (even with ear plugs!). We are all aware of important OH&S regulations and this equipment is compulsory. However, better professional equipment exists and attitudes have changed. How
people working three metres from such sound emissions will sustain a quality of hearing for the rest of their lives is another problem that costs millions of dollars in workers compensation annually. I was told by Council staff that private certifiers associated with the building site, not Council, supervise this part of the construction process. I diligently contacted the private certifier in charge in order to address the problem. By doing so I did a job for which we pay Council staff. The Office of Environment Heritage later told me that ‘private certifiers’ are private contractors hired by councils. Local councils then should check if these contractors apply or ignore any recommendation formulated by the former Environmental Protection Agency. It should also be the role of council staff to forward a taxpayer’s complaint to council’s contractors. It seems that our council dismisses the wellbeing of its residents and that some of our rates are going to private

How to motivate contractors to establish some kind of dialogue with the community at large and minimise man-made environmental noise should also be part of council approach to developments. Developers, council staff and councillors are all morally (and legally?) responsible for the poor health consideration given to noise pollution at large in this shire. On an almost equal footing, ‘silent’ residents who don’t speak out are voluntary participants to the problem.

Households in the
clean energy future According to the federal government, households will play an important role in the government’s plan for a clean energy future. To help households adjust to the introduction of the carbon price, more than half of the revenue raised will be given to them primarily in the form of tax cuts, higher family payments and increases in pensions and allowances. The package of household assistance, first and foremost, helps to ensure that the impact of a carbon price is manageable for low-and-middle-income Australian households, especially those who have less financial room to adjust to change. It does this through cash assistance delivered through tax cuts and increased government payments. Other parts of the household assistance package support incentives for households to adopt their own energy-and cost-saving measures. The government is also taking the opportunity of moving the economy to a clean energy future to reform the structure of the personal tax system, consistent with key recommendations of the 2009 Australia’s Future Tax System Review. These reforms will modernise the personal income tax system, making it simpler and more transparent. By cutting taxes, they will also improve incentives for and rewards from work, building on other recent government measures to lift workforce participation. The government will more than treble the statutory tax-free threshold to $18,200 in 2012, which will replace all but $445 of the existing low-income tax offset (LITO). The combined effect of the LITO plus the $18,200 tax-free threshold means that people will be able to earn annual income of up to $20,542 before they pay any net tax. This will improve the rewards for work at low incomes. s 3EE MORE AT WWWCLEANENERGYFUTUREGOVAU

The artist’s keen eye
Redemptive power of words
Notebooks by Betty Churcher (Pan Macmillan Australia).
City of Longing by Victoria Thompson (Press On Arcadia).
Reviewed by Leanne Wilson
Reviewed by Victoria Cosford
The theme of the Byron Bay Writers’ Festival this year is Passion. How fitting then to be reviewing Betty Churcher’s Notebooks which is a combined memoir and sketchbook brimming with passion. Churcher, born in 1931, says she always knew how to draw. Drawing was for her something that just was. She thought everyone had the gift of being able to reproduce all that they looked upon. For her being able to draw was a key to understanding the subject. Because it was something so easy and natural for her she didn’t realise until older that she had a gift, and not all could reproduce what they saw. As a young woman she studied in London, in itself something unusual for the times. When she returned to Australia, she became a teacher, curator, and television presenter, but always with her passion for art at the centre of her career choices. Reading Notebooks is a wonderful experience. Her analysis of some of the most famous works of the great masters is akin to a kind of meditation. Gently peeling back the layers of paint and artist intent, Churcher invokes a kind of peace and sacredness in her descriptions and analysis of some the world’s great masterpieces. The format introduces us to the original painting, some of the history of the artist and subject, then follows on with her sketches and thoughts of the particular work, drawing our attention to previously (for me anyway) unknown gems and extra information which gives a depth of understanding and a burning desire to rediscover these paintings. Tragically, Churcher’s sight is fading. A melanoma has meant the loss of sight in one eye. Then she noticed problems with the sight in her good eye, which has since been diagnosed with macular degeneration. So in a sense this book is her finest and most deeply felt and thought creation. Most, but not all of these sketches and notes were produced a few years ago when she was granted the solitude and space of a gallery closed to the general public. What a privilege to hear the stories behind the exquisite pieces of art that have a special place in Churcher’s heart. Of all the pieces she loves and discusses a small print by Rembrandt is the one she would choose to own, if she could. There is an innate tenderness when she describes the painting. Her writing is quite lyrical and often amusing.
Byron Bay-based novelist Victoria Thompson’s latest book is a perfect fit for this year’s Writers’ Festival theme of Passion. City of Longing is steeped in it, recounting the deeply sad story of a man and a woman destined never to meet but who manage to forge a tremendous bond and a great love. Ms Thompson’s first book, the memoir Losing Alexandria, was first published in 1998 by Pan Macmillan, went into a reprint immediately and was on the Melbourne Age bestseller list for several weeks. Her follow-up tells the story of an unhappily married woman who had written a book discovered fortuitously by an immensely wealthy banker living continents away. He writes to her, thereby sparking a connection which becomes only more intense as their communications increase and their long-distance relationship intensifies. Perhaps the most poignant aspect of the story is that the couple, despite plans, promises and dreams, never manage to meet in the flesh. ‘Isabelle... felt renewed by Olivier’s words and was beginning to experience dizzying amounts of happiness. For the first time someone was loving her without ever having seen her in the flesh; loving her not as a configuration of female components, but for revealing those unseen parts of herself – imagination, memory, spirit. And courage.’ Ms Thompson’s writing is beautiful: a blend of sensual and intellectual, strewn with literary, political and historical references. Then there is the redemptive power and grace of words, threaded throughout the story.
The anecdote of Gough Whitlam walking on water – literally – is not to be missed. Notebooks has unleashed an unexpected poignancy in me for the opportunities I had as a much younger woman visiting some of the great galleries of the world where I paused briefly before works by Rembrandt and other long-dead artists and then moved on far too quickly. If only I had the knowledge I now have. I think a visit to the great galleries of the world is in order! I recommend reading this gentle and beautiful book to all, and for myself I hope to take more than a deeper knowledge and understanding of art away from this read with me. I take the intention to see – really see – everything as deeply as I can and never take for granted the beauty of anything – or perhaps to inspire me to search for beauty in everything I see. Describing The Baptism of Christ by Piero Della Francesca: ‘the feeling is of frozen gesture, and frozen time – even the leaves on the tree are still held in the fixed luminosity of a blue day, suspended in light like specimens in ether.’’ A truly beautiful read! Betty Churcher will be at the 2011 Byron Bay Writers’ Festival. For more information visit www.byronbaywritersfestival.com.
Q
Detail from Thompson’s earlier work, Losing Alexandria.
‘It all began with words and because of words,’ ends the first chapter. ‘A letter, from London. He called it, A communion of a lifetime’s wait.’ Later on Ms Thompson writes that ‘... Someone said that a book, a painting, a monument is only a statement by an individual, a way of saying something because once no-one listened. At its most poignant, that burst
of eloquence is the expression of an open wound, something that stops the artist from giving up in the face of rejection.’ Q Victoria
Thompson will be in Chatroom B at the Byron Bay Writers’ Festival on Friday August 5 at 10.15 am, discussing ‘Living Here, Writing There’ along with Tristan Bancks and Maris Morton.
Publishing experts explain the nuts and bolts Write like a bestselling author, snare an agent, wow an editor, publish an e-book, promote like the best publicists or just find out who’s who in publishing at the Nuts’n’Bolts industry seminar being run as part of the Byron Bay Writers’ Festival. The all-day seminar will be chaired by the Australian Writer’s Marketplace Manager Meg Vann and the Queensland Writers Centre’s Imogen Smith. In conjunction with the Byron Bay-based Northern Rivers Writers’ Centre, they have designed the seminar to provide a comprehensive industry overview. ‘It will guide participants through the publishing process, looking at everything from how to develop your work and submit your manuscript to agents and publishers, as well exploring book contracts, advances 22 July 19, 2011 The Byron Shire Echo
and payments,’ says Siboney Duff, Writer Development manager for the Writers’ Centre. ‘The seminar will also take a look at e-books and the new age of digital publishing. It’s the perfect all-round event for people considering a career as a published author as well as those who are just plain curious about books and publishing.’ Vann believes the seminar is tailored specifically to writers’ needs. ‘At The Australian Writer’s Marketplace, writers tell us what they need to develop their work and connect with audiences. We then get together with a whole range of talented professionals – authors, publishers, editors, agents, writers centres, competition organisers – devising ways for writers to plan their pathways to publication.’ Another presenter will be
<echowebsection=Articles>
Laurel Cohn, originally a literary agent and then an editor and manuscript assessor with more than twenty years’ experience. According to Duff, ‘Laurel will demystify the editorial role and provide tips for negotiating both traditional and new publication pathways.’ With publishers putting more emphasis on an author’s ability to self-promote, Duff considers a knowledge of social media and online promotion a must: ‘Authors need to be savvy about promoting themselves online and be strategic in the
use of social media networks. Today, readers want the opportunity to know an author more intimately.’ Nuts’n’Bolts is being held at the Byron Community Centre on Thursday August 4 from 10am. Participants can put what they learn at Nuts’n’Bolts into practice straight away with a free subscription to www. awmonline.com.au – the Australian Writer’s Marketplace website.

So what was the impetus for forming the Well Swung Daddies? The two trumpet players in the band and I got together because we wanted to form a modern swing band that would attract dancers from swing, rock ’n’ roll and jive. We are entertainers and when people dance we believe that we have succeeded.
bands were there long before RSVP; in the big-band era you met the love of your life on the dance floor!
How does having three saxes and two trumpets influence your song choice and your interpretations? The band now consists of two trumpets, two saxes and a trombone, plus guitar, bass, keys, drums and our amazing vocalist Andrew Cox. We are what we like to call a small/big band (a big band usually has four trumpets, four trombones, five saxes, rhythm section, plus vocals). To keep a band like the Well Swung Daddies together we need to have arrangements and the guys need to be able to read music, so our song choices are based on the arrangements that are currently available or that we can get arranged.
Tell me about the members?
What do you think it is about the horn that is so exciting and evocative in music? Horns are very physical; guitars, piano and drums you just touch, but horns you touch and then put them to your lips and in the case of saxes you even put them in your mouth; they then become a part of you! Are you a fan of ‘big bands’? What kind of experience do you think they give an audience? Definitely I grew up, as did all the horn players in the Daddies, playing in brass bands and big bands; it’s where we got our musical discipline. Big bands were ‘show bands’ – you got the full musical experience: they dressed as a unit, they played as a unit, they entertained, they made people want to dance. Big
How would you describe yourselves as a band? A bunch of guys having fun, playing music we love, and behaving badly! Vocals: Andrew Cox has sung with many popular local bands in the area since 1994, most recently with his own original band. Trumpet: Laurie Green has played in brass bands and big bands all his life, is currently first trumpet in the Lismore Symphony Orchestra, SOUL’D and the Northern Rivers Big Band. Trumpet: Mal Bateman, a Ballina businessman, also played in brass bands and big bands all his life, spent 20 years as a professional player in the army and air force bands and also plays in the Northern Rivers Big Band. Tenor Sax: Andrew Hills plays alto/tenor sax, clarinet and flute; he has played in many bands, plays in local bands SOUL’D and Stipsky, and played clarinet in a circus band for many years. Baritone Sax: Steve Sax (Saxton) plays tenor/ baritone sax and flute; a local businessman who took the easy way out and decided to run a business instead of concentrating on music. Also plays in SOUL’D. Trombone: Josh Booyens is the newest Well Swung Daddy; a banker by day,

OFF YOUR FACEBOOK The other night I was driving back from a gig when I caught the tail end of a program on ABC radio. A gentleman, whose name escapes me but was clearly an expert in his field, was warning listeners about revealing too much private information about themselves on Facebook. Facebook and all its narcissistic ‘tell me about yourself’ seductions has created a golden age for internet scammers who now have access to our most private information. And we have offered it willingly, posted on our home pages for all to see. ‘Hey here’s a pic of me in my bra and undies’. ‘Here I am on a pony.’ Oh and in case you want to see more of me, here’s a whole bloody album! No-one wants to look at other people’s albums, particularly when all the photos are of you. Unless it’s your stalker. We lock our houses, we have car alarms, but we put out our private information for the world to see. For instance, on the average Facebook we have our name, our date of birth, our marital status; we often have pictures of our kids and their names. We have pictures of our pets. We state the town where we live. These are just the clues your aspiring scammer needs to decode the passwords to your bank accounts, internet accounts, phone accounts etc. You see most people use their children or pets as password names. It’s not hard to fish around and find out your parent’s names… and let’s face it, every single idiot out there wants a trillion people saying Happy Birthday – so everyone’s super-keen to reveal their birthdate. The Facebook critic went on to say ‘when you get something for free you have to assume that you are the product’. It was chilling. So this giant cybersnake called the internet that brings me social networking opportunities is actually using me? Facebook is just a giant data hoover to sell advertising. Our mindless chat may appear meaningless and inconsequential, but it’s highly valuable to those who might be interested in demographic behaviour. We’re complicit to a constant social survey about our values, our lifestyle choices and our general behaviour. And if that’s not bad enough, Facebook has eaten my daughters. Whole. Most of the negative
media about FB for teenagers has been about bullying or paedophiles. Weirdos pretending to be 14 but actually being some creepy predator who meets you at the train station then dismembers you. Maybe instead of suggested friends they could create a section dedicated to suggested predators. How about ‘Stalker of the week’. Over the school holidays my daughters were denied access to their Facebook accounts for about four days. It was like watching a heroin addict in severe withdrawal. They were listless. They lay in their beds. They became aggressive. They made threats. They cried. Then they started begging to use my step-dad’s computer. They bargained. They slammed the door. They didn’t shower. They wandered around a house full of humans declaring ‘this is so fricking boring there’s no one to talk to’. Their eyes had that same hollow stare of the alienated and disconnected. Facebook Zombies. You see if you aren’t on Facebook posting photos of yourself receiving comments like ‘oh my god you are so hot’ then you don’t exist. If you’re not hot you’re just not. I notice on my own Facebook account there are adults addicted to posting virtually every thought they have throughout the day for approval and recognition by their cyber-peers. But they’re adults. They can manage the soul-snatching implications of thinking that you have just engaged in a real human exchange. On FB it’s far easier to be crueler, to be more provocative, to have an apparently bulletproof persona. But this is just what I call cyber-puffing. The other word I like to use is ‘dickheading’. I’ve read my kid’s Facebook raves and the postings from their friends. Every parent should have a look. It’s shocking. Even the nicest kids are morons. I want my children back. The ones with real personalities who could have a conversation. The ones who watched a movie with me. The ones who told me I was wrecking their lives. Instead I’ve got wide-eyed ghouls who feed their souls into the portal they call Facebook. The internet screen has become the virtual pond that young Narcissus died staring into.

Find a friend on Friday at the Beach Hotel.

Sydney-based band The Strides have been making waves around the country with their fresh Afrobeat-reggae sound and ‘whole lot of soul’. With recent performances at the Bellingen Global Carnival, the Peats Ridge Festival, as well as supporting Afrobeat legend Tony Allen, the Strides are quickly becoming the talk around town. The Strides bring together some of Sydney’s best new talent in afro-funk, reggae and hip hop, spurring a new wave of Sydney interest in the hypnotic grooves of Afrobeat. They have been compared to Fat Freddy’s Drop and The Cat Empire, yet have something of their own grooves that will transport you to another place. See The Strides on Sunday at the Beach Hotel

With his heart on his sleeve and a fire in his bones, Dan Hannaford’s guitar swings between roots, soul and rock’n’roll. Dan combines acoustic guitars, bottleneck slide, jaw harp, a backyard-built stomp box and he’s a man who can make any gig feel as free-spirited as a jam on the back verandah. Dan’s Currumbin Valley home overlooks world-famous surf breaks on the southern QLD border and green hills of northern NSW. The son of a preacher, his musical heritage journeys back to childhood gospel performances growing up in the region’s seaside town of Ballina – and in between north and south is the Hotel Great Northern where you can see him on Monday.

CULTURE
The Cherry Orchard Britain’s National Theatre presents The Cherry Orchard. Hot on the heels of the wonderful production of the STC’s The White Guard screened live via satellite, Dendy Byron Bay Cinemas presents STC director Andrew Upton’s superb adaptation of Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard, the final play for the 2010–11 NT Live season. Set at the very start of the 20th century, The Cherry Orchard captures a poignant moment in Russia’s history as the country rolls inexorably towards 1917. Ranyevskaya returns more or less bankrupt after ten years abroad. Luxuriating in her fading moneyed world and seemingly unaware of the increasingly hostile forces outside,

she and her brother snub the lucrative scheme of peasantturned-entrepreneur Lopakhin to save the family estate. In so doing, they put up their lives to auction and seal the fate of their beloved orchard. Ranyevskaya is played by Zoë Wanamaker, whose leading roles at the National have included Much Ado About Nothing, The Rose Tattoo and The Crucible as well as the title role in Electra at the Donmar Warehouse for which she won the Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actress. Her extensive television work includes My Family, Poirot, Doctor Who, Miss Marple, Gormenghast and Love Hurts; films include Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone and My Week with Marilyn. Directed by Howard Davies, described by the London Evening Standard as Britain’s most consistently satisfying interpreter of Russian drama, the production will be captured live in high definition at the National’s Olivier Theatre. See this classic at the Dendy Byron Bay Cinemas Saturday and Sunday 1pm.
Byron Music Society Presents Oliver She Oliver She has gained wide recognition as a pianist of outstanding ability through his performances in numerous demanding piano competitions. Oliver began his studies in piano at the age of four. Since then he has consistently won first prize for his age in the Queensland Piano Competition, Queensland Youth Music Awards and the ‘Keys’ Australian National Piano and Vocal Competition. At the age of fourteen, in 2005 Oliver became the youngest National Keyboard Winner of the Symphony Australia Young Performers Awards, in which he played the Liszt Piano Concerto No1 with the Western Australian Symphony Orchestra and with the Queensland Orchestra at the grand final concert in Brisbane City Hall which was broadcast and televised nationally on ABC Classic FM and ABC TV. In 2009 Oliver won third prize in the Lev Vlassenko Piano Competition in Brisbane, and was a prizewinner at the Southern Highlands International Piano Competition; in both events he was awarded prizes for the best performance of an Australian composition. He reached the quarter-finals of the 2008 Seoul International Music Competition and was a participant in the 2009 Hamamatsu International Piano Competition. In 2010, Oliver was the ABC Symphony Australia Young Performer of the Year and recipient of the David Paul Landa scholarship. Most recently he was runner-up in the inaugural Chopin Australian International Piano Competition which was hosted by the ANU School of Music in Canberra. Fasten seatbelts and prepare to be swept away in a most romantic afternoon. Byron Community Centre Theatre on Sunday.

Calling all artists Reggaefest Roots and Culture Music Festival is inviting local artists to get creative with some outdoor ideas and display their work at the festival site over the two-day event. Arts Coordinator of Reggaefest Larissa Mitchell, says that this is a great opportunity for installation artists to gain exposure and experience with festival art and also gives budding artists and art students an opportunity to explore this field and the guidelines give artists a lot of creative leeway ‘Installations can be tiny or large and include a combination of disciplines or just one,' says Larissa. 'Artists are encouraged to draw inspiration from the beautiful outdoor location and multicultural essence of the music, workshops and overall festival, though all submissions will be considered as long as they enhance the surroundings with a positive sense of discovery and creativity and can withstand two days in the outdoors. The festival runs through day and night so things like lanterns could work well also.’
Reggaefest will be featuring local acts alongside international favourites, as well as local craft and food. As a truly homegrown festival, Reggaefest would like to give a chance for as many members of the community as possible to display their talents. ‘One of the things that makes this area so special is that it has always attracted creative and talented people', says Larissa. 'We really want to showcase as much as possible over the weekend of Reggaefest.’
LIVE FROM CONDONG BOWLING CLUB TWEED VALLEY JAZZ CLUB

cinema reviews Winter’s Bone
of Missouri’s Ozarks with her drug-addled Mom and younger sister and brother. Her Daddy, Jessup, one of the area’s leading methamphetamine manufacturers, has disappeared after signing over the meagre family property to bondsmen. Ree, as true a heroine as you are likely to meet on screen, sets off on a scary and at times macabre quest to find what happened to her father – without spoiling it, I must say that the task she is forced to perform at the end of her search is barely watchable for its gruesomeness. Ree, we soon learn, has ambitions of getting out of the woods
A lot of films commit themselves to painting realistic pictures of socio-economic or regionally isolated subcultures. Their earnestness and verisimilitude is always beyond reproach, but too often they let themselves down by not paying due attention to what is most important (in any genre): story. Director Debra Granik’s hillbilly noir thriller makes no such oversight. A winner at Sundance, it is a confronting mystery of suffocating tension. Seventeen-year-old Ree (Jennifer Lawrence) lives in the poor white trash world

BAD TEACHER
– she tries unsuccessfully to sign up for the army – but what makes her so appealing a character, one for whom our support is unflinching, is her determination to see that justice is done, and her unstinting bravery in going against the fierce traditions of her kith and kin. Among people whose pride insists that you ‘never ask for what should be offered’, she crosses the line of acceptable behaviour, placing herself in harm’s way as she gets closer to achieving her goal. It is a cold and unkempt landscape through which she moves, an unforgiving, harshly judgmental community with which she must cope – the atmosphere created by Granik is of knife-edge tension. Lawrence is superb and, among a cast that exudes murderous realism, John Hawkes is fantastic as her Uncle Teardrop, an ex-con whose coarse exterior hides a heart of unforeseen if ragged tenderness. This is a brilliant movie. ~ John Campbell
This moving and unexpectedly but quite properly corny film is based on the true story of a grungy old hermit who threw a party to commemorate his own death. It opens with an extended, unsettling shot of a two-storey house on fire, its flames cutting into the black night sky. An unidentifiable figure is seen jumping from one of the windows and fleeing into the trees – then we cut to 1930s rural Tennessee, where we meet the shaggybearded misanthrope, Felix Bush (Robert Duvall). He comes

to town in his mule-drawn cart and calls on the undertaker, Frank Quinn (Bill Murray), to make arrangements for his funeral, at which he wants everybody who has ever had dealings with him to step forward and speak their mind. Why is he doing this? Felix’s motives must be linked to the burning house – but how? There are signposts along the way, but the revelation of just what happened in the conflagration is teasingly withheld until Felix’s heartrending speech to those who have come to his wake. The autumn landscape – all dry rusts and greys – and candlelit, creaky-timber interiors are beautifully photographed by Australian David Boyd, the music is pitch perfect in its acoustic, introspective intent and the performances are sublime. Murray, playing it straighter than usual, finds in the mercenary Quinn a shifty but susceptible character, while Lucas Black, as his assistant Buddy, balances naivety with forthrightness – his role is to be the ship’s ballast and he fulfils it without fuss. Sissy Spacek’s Mattie, with whom Felix shares a mysterious bond from their courting days, is a delicate portrayal of a forgiving woman with a wound that won’t mend. But as the cussed, regretful, subtly manipulative Felix, it is Duvall’s movie. To me he appeared to be building on the ornery persona of his Boss Spearman in the great western Open Range (2003) as he sadly inches towards inner peace and a release ‘from the burdens of the heart’. Wonderful. ~ John Campbell

E ARIES: Remember how you hate being pressured? Then hold that thought if you start getting too insistent with others. It isn’t in your best interests to be too trusting either, so be wary of volunteering personal information because hidden agendas are in the ascendancy this week. F TAURUS: This week’s energetic holding pattern suits the Tauran temperament just fine, allowing you to process present deep planetary changes at your own organic pace. The trick with navigating transitions gracefully is not waiting till the last possible moment when things are painful to make your move. G GEMINI: This week’s word is listen. To other people. To your own intuition, gut feeling, whatever you call it. To what’s happening in the media, on the street, in education, health and social change. Because the more you listen, the more you can hear what isn’t being said. H CANCER: Cancerians can be the zodiac’s most engaging charmers, so don’t let this week’s edgy aspects ruin your mood. Everyone loves a smiley face; just look at peoples’ response to his holiness the Dalai Lama, your primo Cancerian example of caring for others without taking on their pain. I LEO: Your majesty’s style is instinctive, but right now it needs to be strategic because others’ perceptions will affect how the rest of the month plays out. Communicator Mercury in Leo usually says the right thing but sometimes at the wrong time, so tailor royal proclamations accordingly. J VIRGO: You’ll get plenty of emotional yoga and mental calisthenics keeping up with people’s mood changes this week. Plus remembering happy homes require careful compromise; when arbitrating family dramas your logical mind sees what’s needed, but no-one will listen unless you speak to their feelings. K LIBRA: Librans love nothing better than a little retail therapy, but dwindling resources suggest developing new priorities for shopping and buying. Your leading lady Venus in the sign of staying at home would much prefer your getting creative at
Villa Libra with what you already have. L SCORPIO: With planetary energies shaking existing structures into new patterns, it’s worthwhile getting really clear about what’s important enough to fight for in your life and what’s not. Careful listening and questioning will help handle and communicate this week’s strong feelings, your own and other peoples’. M SAGITTARIUS: While this is a serious period for our planetary home, reconnecting with the funny side of life makes it bearable – though being a sensitive extrovert could have its tricky moments this week when your most enjoyable activity is brainstorming and the best day for it Friday. N CAPRICORN: You’re excused for getting confused with this week’s mood swings and changing arrangements – just when you’ve figured out why others are grouchy they’ve forgotten all about it. Just agree to disagree because dissent isn’t always a bad thing and diverse views are way healthier than monocultures. O AQUARIUS: Oops! Your emotional baggage could be showing this week, which supports closely examining any inconvenient truths that surface concerning the way you relate (or don’t) to others. Do this honestly, and you’ll find late-week Aries moon useful for fuelling any new resolutions into action. P P ISCES: Early-week Pisces moon invites quiet times before late-week Aries moon pumps up the volume on everyone airing their opinions. Keep things simple this week by avoiding complications, confusion and drama. Take into consideration how your changing direction or altering course may affect others.
CHESS by Ian Rogers
The 10,000 hour theory, propounded by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 book Outliers, has been happily accepted by many in the chess community. Gladwell claimed that to become an expert in a particular field, talent must be supplemented by 10,000 hours of practice. The downplaying of talent to emphasise hard work gladdened the heart of chess coaches worldwide but simply cannot explain a

Even more remarkably Tao result. The following game, Tao’s has maintained a position among Australia’s top 20, seemingly shock victory over Zhao in the without difficulty and certainly fourth round of the Checkmate tournament, sees nothing flashy without much practice. Last weekend Tao came out but nonetheless leaves one in of a two-year hibernation to win shock at the ease with which a
top class player such as Zhao can be beaten by a player who simply plays one good move after another.

Even the likeable Steve Carell cannot save Evan Almighty (Prime, Saturday, 7.30pm) from being a dog of a comedy. God wants him to build a new ark, and there’s not a development application in sight. 3. Australian flick Panic At Rock Island premieres (NBN, Sunday, 8.30pm). Festival goers are trapped in Sydney Harbour with a deadly virus – vomiting ensues. Spiderbait provides some of the music.

Vegetarian dread Victoria Cosford Lyn from across the credit union counter is describing the grotesque vegetarian dish served up to her and her partner in Sydney. Lyn, whose new man is a vegetarian, has gradually over the months been increasing her stock of suitable dishes they may both enjoy; she has admitted to the challenge of it all. But this – quiche, she supposed it was – was worse than anything she had managed. Into a puff pastry case, she confided, wide-eyed at the awfulness of the recollection, had been poured a tin of chickpeas then a whisking of eggs and cream, then into the oven. I can only imagine. I hear it time and time again. The difficulty faced by those thrust into the position of needing to cater for non-meat/chicken/fish eaters; vegans must prove even harder. And I continue to find it beyond comprehension. What is so hard about cooking a meatless meal? What is so daunting about vegetables? In season, preferably procured from one of the increasing number of farmers markets we have at our disposal, ideally ripped from the soil of our own gardens, there is so much, or so little, you can do to transform them into something wonderful. Especially given the glut of cookbooks, food magazines, cooking programs and general obsession prevailing with which to indulge our pampered palates – there is no excuse for toppling a tin of pre-cooked pulses into a store-bought pastry case, no matter how deplorable a cook you are. The following is a small solution for those who

quail at the prospect of a vegetarian to dinner. Nonvegetarians will love it too and all it needs is a green salad and some good bread. ROAST VEGETABLE TART For the pastry base a food processor makes life simple. Bung in 220 grams cold, roughly chopped butter together with 335 grams plain flour and whizz together until it resembles breadcrumbs. Then add one 60 gram egg mixed into 30 ml milk and keep processing until the mixture comes together in a ball. Wrap in cling-film and chill while you prepare the filling. In a 200°C oven roast in olive oil small batches of any or all of the following: diced pumpkin, sliced sweet potatoes, cherry tomatoes, whole button mushrooms, thinly sliced red capsicum, zucchini chunks, chopped eggplant, asparagus spears, whole garlic cloves, and finely sliced red onions. The vegetables all have different cooking times so you do need to be alert. When they’re cooked, season and remove. Now roll out the pastry into a flan dish and blind-bake for about 10 mins. Remove and cool. In a bowl whisk together 350 grams ricotta, 70 ml cream, 2 eggs and 40 grams freshly grated parmesan. Season to taste and pour into the pastry case, then bake until firm, up to 35 minutes. Then all you have to do is remove it and gently arrange like an artwork, like an edible poem, all those vibrantly glistening differently coloured vegetables on top. Strew with fresh herbs – basil or thyme or rosemary – and there you are.
Slice Pizzeria is Byron’s only authentic stone oven pizza. Made with top shelf ingredients and ready to be eaten by the slice or whole. Real handcrafted dough, opened in front of your eyes with our bare, trained hands. Italian grown tomatoes and flour. Butcher quality meats. Real, fresh, local produce. Fresh, pure mozzarella (no blends, no substitutes). A simple and unique slow rise process, minimising the use of yeast, therefore giving you a lighter and healthier feeling. Enjoy!

No joy for Shiners but Byron and Bangers go mash Gutsy Shiner’s effort Dean Trevaskis
On Saturday a Moonshiners side decimated by injury begged, borrowed and stole fifteen bodies to make the trip away to Evans River. The Evans Killer Whales showing strengths in the forwards and backs opened the account early with two tries. The Shiners showed some intestinal fortitude not to roll over with the likes of Dazzling Dillon Pyne and Chris Pianelli putting their bodies on the line. Captain Scotty Potts didn’t leave anything in the sheds with his passion earning him a yellow card. Dave Dixon continued his herculean season with another 80-minute performance. Despite the efforts, Evans put the nails in the coffin with two late tries for a 26–0 victory. The Shiners should lose no heart from what was a very

gutsy effort. Next week provides the Shiners’ last opportunity for a home win this season. They take on Murwillumbah at Brunswick Heads; the game kicks off at 2.30pm. The 19s are also at home kicking off at 12.30.
Banger’s over Kyogle Jock Craigie
Bangalow played at home finally after five weeks on the road and had its first win in six weeks against second-placed
Kyogle at the weekend. It was an even first half with both teams being unable to apply enough pressure to skip away to any big lead. Bangalow created more opportunities by building solid phase ball but as has been the story of the season stumbled when the try line was begging. Late in the half Kyogle found their grinding rhythm and scored after continual pressure. At five-nil at half time and the season slipping away, Bangalow needed to find the try line. The Piggies started to dominate with bruising cleanouts and tighter running. This put Kyogle under the pump and after a string of penalties captain Richard Kelly scored off a rolling maul from a lineout. Half back Kerry Jennings missed the conversion to push ahead but kicked a penalty not long after. Bangalow’s Piggies continued to lift, winning the set piece and the tackle contest
Sun’s winners over Tigers in Cairns Cairns showed that AFL has a home in Far North QLD when more than 10,000 fans turned up at Cazalys Oval for a tense game between Richmond and the Gold Coast on Saturday. This was the first AFL fixture to be played in Cairns and it proved to be a success, bringing the wider community together to attend something positive in town as Cairns is going through some tough times. The ground recently went under a $3 million upgrade with new change rooms, media facilities and corporate area in time for the game. This was a homecoming for Suns’ forward Charlie Dixon who grew up in Cairns and as a junior played many games at Cazalys and was certainly impressed with the upgrade. Richmond has committed to playing a home game against the Suns at the venue until 2013 and has been criticised for giving up its home ground advantage and transferring games to Darwin and Cairns. The Suns’ Rex Liddy in a clinch with Tigers’ Trent Cotchin during Richmond half-back Brett Saturday’s clash in Cairns. Photo Getty Images Deledio said the Tigers had
used the heat chamber six times in the past fortnight to try to become acclimatised. Suns defender Jarrod Harbow originally recruited from Cairns talked down the prospect of the heat giving the Suns an advantage. The telling point in the match was after half-time when Richmond kicked a miserable two goals in the third quarter and held only a 13-point lead at the last change. Gold Coast coach Guy McKenna said the third quarter was pivotal to the outcome and particularly noted defenders Nathan Bock, Campbell Brown and rookie Rory Thompson. ‘They kicked 2.7 and we kicked 5.4 in the last quarter,’ said McKenna. ‘That was probably the difference in the end’. Both sides held meet-andgreet sessions for fans but none had a bigger welcome than Suns’ skipper Gary Ablett who received a rock star reception when he emerged from the rooms. Ablett was swamped by fans wanting high fives and an autograph. The final core Suns 12.13.85 defeated the Tigers 9.16.70.

allowing fly half Ben Allcock to send his runners through on the front foot. Off another penalty Bangalow continued to apply the pressure opting for a lineout. The ball went to the backs and the move was executed perfectly with full back Nick Hornery slicing through for a converted try. Kyogle started to turn on each other and one of their players was yellow carded for foul play.
In the dying minutes Kyogle scored a converted try to take the end result to 15-12. Best for Bangalow was second rower Chris Davies, inside centre Matt Bleakley and number eight Jock Craigie.

Devils ride roughshod over flightless neighbours Bangalow Bluedogs
A flock of Seagulls was not enough to stop the Devils’ Ben Penpraise from getting across the line in their NRRRL clash on Sunday. Photo Tree Faerie See more of this game’s tries: www.treefaeriefotos.com/todays-pic.html. John Campbell
Byron Bay saved their best till last in dishing out a 56-16 drubbing to Ballina at Red Devil Park on Sunday. Now serious contenders for the NRRRL reserve grade premiership, the Bay had been less than scintillating before an estimated bumper crowd of 5,212, but their tenth and final try was an absolute pearler. With the hooter about to blow, the ball was threaded through a dozen pairs of hands as the long distance movement, commencing in the Devils’ half, swept out to the far right
before veering back infield to find Adam Gordon in support. The stocky five-eighth had recorded a personal-best time to get himself into position to take the ultimate pass and cross under the black dot. It was pretty to watch and made a mockery of the disarray that had mostly preceded it. The Bay, with next year’s A-grade brains trust watching from the bunker, were never going to lose against one of the comp’s low-flyers. Their opponents fielded a side with a number of blokes built like Kenny before he signed up with Jenny Craig, but a couple
of the Seagulls’ handy backs were a constant menace (centre Luke Simpson notched three tries). Otherwise, the visitors put in the effort without ever being in the hunt. The Devils were untroubled in jumping to an early 12-0 lead through converted tries to fullback Bill Lowrie and cult figure Dwayne Cahill. Both cruised through threadbare defence, with Lowrie running fifty metres and the marauding Drano eighty – scorching the turf like a shorn gazelle, the winger was out of the blocks before the Seagulls knew he was in the vicinity and they promptly
Maggie U9s help out Lismore Cygnets
gave up the futile chase rather than eat his dust. Half Peter Flannery occupied three defenders in slipping a lovely one-hander to Lowrie for his second, but Ballina, who couldn’t buy a goal all afternoon, managed to get within shouting distance at 1812 before tries to Ben Penpraise and Conan ‘the Barbarian’ Creighton took the Devils to oranges at a comfortable 28-12. Heated discussion over the carbon tax went beyond the half-time break (‘what’s this double dissolution Abbott’s talking about?’ the Old Bloke asked. ‘Don’t worry about it, he’s an idiot,’ I assured him) and few noticed Gordon’s bamboozling sortie through the back-pedaling defence as he set up Cahill for another try in the corner. Camera-shy Michael ‘Wolfman’ Chapman opened his account and, at 40-12, a blue erupted. The Ballina lock and the Devils’ captain, Luke ‘Bomma’ Bomford, were punished with ten in the bin, but it was a much-appreciated enlivenment (not that we should ever condone such activity). Peter Flannery posted a deserved try, after which it became a niggly procession of knockons. ‘It’s kinda lost its pep a bit,’ observed the Old Bloke. Meanwhile Chapman, his calves still exposed to the breeze, took the scenic route to the white stripe to crack fifty, leaving only Gordon’s sensational coup de grace to leave us laughing. The Devils are next at home to Casino on July 31. The Magpies under 9s played Lismore last weekend which saw the little Maggies show some good spirit and share players to help the Swans’ Cygnets make up a full side. With two more games in the season the Maggies will show what the Byron U11 side is going to be like in 2012.

Junior Gaints back after break Well rested, the Mullum Junior Giants contested round 12 of the rugby league competition. The under 7s played Murwillumbah in a game that saw all the boys try hard and play well, while the 9s came up against Cudgen in their match. The under 10s suffered their first loss of the season going down to Bilambil 24-6. Ben www.echo.net.au
Clothier was voted man of the match for working tirelessly in defence. The under 11s came up against a red-hot opposition in the form of Tweed Coast this weekend and will have plenty of things to work on at training this week. In chilly conditions the under 12s tried hard in a tough
game against Murwillumbah on Friday night. Unfortunately the under 13s had to forfeit their game while a depleted 14 team suffered their first loss of the season going down 14-0 to Tweed Coast. The under 16s played Cudgen and tried hard all game but mistakes took their toll in the end.

A squad of fifteen under 15 players, their coach and two managers from Bangalow Soccer Club have been braving the extremely cold conditions of our nation’s capital this week to compete in the prestigious Kanga Cup Football tournament. Established in 1991, the Kanga Cup is the fifth largest youth football event of its kind in the world and the largest in the southern hemisphere. Capital Football and the FFA sanction the Kanga Cup. The Kanga offers the most competitive club football in Australasia, welcoming members of the FFA football family as well as those from all over the world. The Bangalow team is coached by Jim Gelagottis who has been preparing the boys for this tournament since January with twice-weekly training, a strict fitness regime and a diet program to ensure they would be at peak fitness and strength to take on the level of competition at Kanga Cup. The boys have also been playing up two
years in the Football Far North Coast competition, competing in the 16/17 year age group and currently sitting second on the ladder with only one loss this season. This is truly a champion team as well as a team of champions. The boys made a pact early on that they would only go to the Kanga Cup if they could all afford to go. There are considerable costs in competing at a tournament so far away from home with airfares, accommodation, bus hire, etc, so the boys have been fundraising with sausage sizzles, selling chocolates and seeking sponsorship from local businesses. Once in Canberra, not only did they win each of their seven games to the finals, they had not a single goal scored against them. All the hard work definitely paid off for this team and last Friday they competed in the grand final playing another NSW team from Emu Plains – the Blue Dogs came away convincing 5-1 winners.

Everyone reads The Echo!
This year will see a new element added to the already successful Brunswick Heads Simple Pleasures Photo Competition – free basic digital photography workshops. The workshops are intended for kids and adults who have small compact cameras and would like to get more out of their shots. The participants will learn basic camera operation (what all the buttons mean), and composition. The Photo Competition coordinator Wendy Bithell said, ‘We got the idea for the workshops from the Brunswick
Heads Facebook page, when some people asked for help with their photos.’ The workshops will be run by Paul Begg, President of the Brunswick Heads Camera,
previous winner of the competition and one of this year’s judges, and Wendy Bithell who has taught basic digital photography and image production at the BBC in London.
The workshops will take place at the CWA Hall in Brunswick Heads on Sunday July 24. The kids workshop will run 1pm-3pm. The adults workshops will be at 3pm-5pm Workshop registrations are essential. Call Wendy 6685 0059 or email wendy@visionwalks.com. The theme for this year’s competition is ‘Happiness is … Brunswick Heads’. Entries are open and will close Friday August 5. For more information go to the website www. simplepleasuresphotocomp. com.au.
Pro bono legal conferences offered again Victoria Cosford
Legal assistance is often beyond the financial means of those most in need of it, especially in areas of high unemployment. For the third year in a row Eureka-based solicitor Jonathon de Vere Tyndall is offering pro bono (free) law conferences at Harvest cafe
in Newrybar. Mr Tyndall told The Echo that last year was very successful. ‘We were able to resolve the majority of the clients’ legal issues and most clients reported a high degree of satisfaction with the service,’ he said. All legal issues are dealt with, including loss of home, job, relationship and children, bank-
ruptcy, wills and crime including drink- or drug-driving. In addition Mr Tyndall is a registered Migration Agent and can assist with immigration law. The sessions are held over three consecutive Monday mornings, from 10 am, on a first-come-first-served basis, and will commence from Monday July 25.
Mr Tyndall recently lectured to law students at the Bond University Law School about the benefits of doing pro bono legal work in the public arena, and giving to the community when they graduate and become lawyers. The Law Department is very supportive of the ethos of lawyers providing such services.

Land slide signals further home building weakness ahead Residential land sales fell for a sixth consecutive quarter in March 2011, signaling the prospect of weakening levels of residential construction through to at least the December quarter this year. The HIA-RP Data Residential Land Report provided by the Housing Industry Association and RP Data, found the volume of land sales fell to a record low in early 2011. Sales were down by six per cent over the March

number of house starts over the short to medium term. ‘The low transaction volumes come at a time when land prices keep rising and undersupply issues intensify. On a rate per square metre basis, the cost of va-
cant land has exploded in recent years across most cities. Between March 2003 and March 2011 the rate per square metre price for vacant land has increased by at least 140 per cent in each capital city analysed except for Sydney.’
‘The excessive cash grab by state and local governments on new development and construction has eroded affordability and bears much of the blame for the current low volume of vacant land transactions.’
Australians say buying a home is more important than having children Buying a home is regarded by Australians as a higher priority than having children, according to the results of a new survey released by RAMS Home Loans. In a survey of 1,000 RAMS customers aged 25 to 45, 62 per cent of respondents said they considered buying a home their most important achievement while just 31 per cent of respondents stated having children topped their priority list. The remaining seven per cent were unsure. RAMS Chief Executive Officer, Melos Sulicich, said the data
indicate owning property is not only considered the most important achievement – it also has significant social implications. ‘We see a sense of urgency in many people when it comes to getting into the market, with Australians delaying other major personal life decisions such as weddings and children to become property owners – as lenders we are often in the position of handling the most important event in someone’s life,’ Mr Sulicich said. For many Australians the prospect of buying a home
now has a major influence on whether they get married and how much they might spend on a wedding. For those planning marriage and children, buying a home can seem like a necessary basis to cement a relationship or create a sense of security. For others, it can be one of the reasons why people might decide to opt for smaller families. ‘Not so long ago debt was once considered a social stigma but these days it’s regarded as a fact of life that holds major influence in the decision making of many Australians.’ Mr Sulicich added.

Scuba divemaster Pip, an international tourist in Byron Bay, is horrified that Mr Shark, a member of the Grey Nurse Species, resident here at Julian Rocks, is ill, having ingested so many local plastic bags. Polly the Parrot helps Molly the Pirate Queen perform an emergency rescue. Fortunately, Mr Shark recovered. But dangers continue for Mr Shark and the other marine life as plastic bags are given away free by many businesses. Meanwhile, the state government is taking submissions from the public about which fishing regulations should be used in places where grey nurse sharks come together in groups. Deadline for submission is August 26 – see http://bit.ly/jD029U for details. The actors in this play are, from left to right, Madi Stewart as diver, Dariush Matloubi as Mr Shark and Mary Gardner as Pirate Queen. Photo Trude Helm

Last week after software developer Lyndsay Howarth exposed the latest ‘Microsoft’ telephone scam in The Echo, the first call a reader had on his brand new private line was from the scammer: ‘Three minutes after connection! God knows how they chose/ got the number. They were quite pissed off when I said I was busy and could I have a number to call them back on. Then I mentioned I didn’t have a computer‌ “clickâ€?. It is a particularly bad accent with very broken English.’

We were impressed with BMW’s new electric Mini, 500 of which are being trialled. The onboard computer contains space for a sound file of your choice so people can hear your noiseless car coming. One suggestion is the sound of horses galloping. Most of the major manufacturers are working on electric models, so hopefully QQQQ 2012/13 will see them hitting There is an upside to phone the road in numbers. BMW’s calls, however. Thanks to the ActiveE series is expected to be cooperation of the major mo- field-tested this month.
