OS Roundhouse site to be sold

Byron Shire Council Notices Page 44

Mullum market celebrates third year

After years of debate, councillors vote to sell Councillors finally voted to sell Ocean Shores Roundhouse site at last Thursday’s meeting, signalling attempts to balance a $10 million budget shortfall. ‘New times’ is how mayor Simon Richardson described his decision to vote for all eleven lots to be subdivided. But it didn’t appear easy times for the relatively new councillors, as many struggled with having to renege on their pre-election commitments to retain the property for community use. Recently, the ‘community use’ was a business proposal by Ocean Shores residents to turn the prime real estate into a community operated gallery and museum, funded from developing apartments on the property. All voted in favour of the sale except Cr Chris Cubis. Tenders will be called for construction of the subdivision works and for the marketing of the 11 lots. The council has now come full circle after spending more than $3 million in the 1990s purchasing and defending in the courts its rezoning of the property for community use.

Priorities are changing During debate, Cr Duncan Dey was one of the few who was satisfied with the staff recommendation and was ‘happy to move ahead’. But deputy mayor Di Woods was not as easily swayed. ‘I originally supported the proposal… as long as it didn’t cost any money. Given our [financial] situation, it puts it in a different light. We need footpaths and lighting for Ocean Shores… New Brighton has drainage problems… and then there’s sports fields.’ She told the gallery she accepts that she ‘made a promise to support the

community proposal, but can’t see how that would [now] occur’. ‘If a developer came forward that would be great. My priorities are changing.’ Similarly Cr Richardson said it was a very hard decision. ‘I never thought I would be voting in favour of an urban renewal project instead of a community space… but we need to show our financial credentials. ‘Gifting land for social benefit could be a thing of the past. I have reservations that ten million dollars [for the project] could be raised. The trade off is that Ocean Shores will benefit from much needed infrastructure.’ At one point Cr Richardson suggested he would be willing explore selling it to a community group cheaper than market value. All councillors agreed that money from the sale should be spent on infrastructure projects for the north of the shire. Jan Mangleson, spokesperson for the Ocean Shores Community Association (OSCA) and the Roundhouse Action Group (RAG), said Council gave her community groups ‘no chance to address any issues raised in the Council report because it was marked confidential and not released to the public.’ ‘At the last moment, councillors voted to debate the issue in public session and release part of the two page report, keeping financial matters confidential,’ Ms Mangleson said. ‘OSCA and RAG had to anticipate what issues Council might raise in its confidential report. The report when released to the gallery was only two pages. This was supposed to be

The Mullumbimby Farmers Market celebrated their third birthday last Friday under a shiny day full of fun, laughter and colour. The Shearwater school performed throughout the morning, and activities included candle making workshops, real fairies facepainting and treats for everyone. The prize for the most colourfully dressed stallholder went to Garry Rogers from The Honey Wagon stall, who

looked like a jolly green yowee and the most colourful couple was definitely Kylie and Stephen Cridland from Rainbow Fruits. Kylie says that she and husband Stephen have had their stall in Mullum for three years and have been attending markets for 11 years in the area. The pair wore matching mohawks in the style of their dried fruit flats and their stall was a hive of activity. ‘The atmosphere at the Mullumbimby Farmers Market is great’, says Kylie. ‘The customers are easy going and you see them rain hail or shine.’

Correction to bike shop story Anzac Day

Last week’s story ‘Byron Bike Shop To Close After 22 Years’ referred to Gold Coast developer Robert Badalotti as the owner of the Byron Woolies Plaza. The Echo wishes to make it clear that he is the owner of the Woolworths building and the southern end of the plaza, and does not own the northern end of the plaza, where the bike shop is located. The Echo apologises to Mr Badalotti continued on page 2 for not making this clear in the article.

Mr Badalotti has told The Echo that he does care about Byron Bay, and that he has commenced significant and extensive refurbishment works to the southern portion of the Woolworths Plaza and has engaged local agents Raine and Horne Byron Bay to assist with the leasing and sales of this portion of the centre. More information will be published on this as it comes to hand.

All servicemen and women are invited to take part in the Anzac Day Commemorations this coming Thursday at the following locations:. In Bangalow the parade will assemble at Memorial Park, near the roundabout at 10.30am, ready for the march down Byron Street to the RSL Memorial Hall in Station Street.

a briefing for the new Council. It is totally inadequate and reflects again Council’s failure to understand or support the shire’s largest residential community.’

Historic change The Roundhouse issue goes back to the opening of the building as the administration centre for the town developers, back in 1969. Part of the original agreement for the Ocean Shores development included the establishment of an Aboriginal art gallery and sporting fields in the third and final

tranche of the subdivision. But when the planned third stage was subsumed into the Billinudgel Nature Reserve, Council resolved to rezone the Roundhouse site for community purposes. Council subsequently purchased the land from the existing owners for $1.5 million in 1994 after a controversial court battle to convert it to community purposes that cost Council more than $2 million. Ms Mangleson said, ‘The Department of Local Government conducted an enquiry into the conduct of Council at the time of its acquisition of the

Roundhouse site.’ The Roundhouse report is on the OSCA website at www. oceanshorescommunity.org. au.

Amalgamation fears ‘Councillors told OSCA and RAG that they were afraid of amalgamation and if they were not seen to address shire problems such as potholes, the shire could be closed down. ‘They did not accept what was said at the public access, that borrowing huge sums for a risky real estate development when Council was financially almost bankrupt was an irresponsible action. ‘A full financial accounting should have been made to the public before proceeding. No attempt by Council has ever been made to consult with Ocean Shores on the future of the Roundhouse.’

Speakers Ray Moynihan and Atira Tan with MC Mick O’Regan are pictured preparing for TEDxByron Bay last Saturday. With the theme ‘Agents Of Change’, the event inspired the packed audience with a full day of intellectual genius and innovation. Just a few highlights include Nigel Brennan, Atira Tan, Dr Arne Rubinstein (Byron local) performance poet Erfan Daliri and Byron Bay musicians Miss Renee Simone and Kyle Lionhart.

2 April 23, 2013 The Byron Shire Echo

The ruins of a former function centre that once perched on the northern headland of Belongil Creek are breaking off and toppling into the creek as the dune is increasingly undermined. The building, which is owned by one of Australia’s richest men, was demolished more than a year ago but the foundations still remain. The soil beneath the concrete slab has been eroded and the slab is now partially cantilevered over the escarpment. Pipes, wires and conduit are also poking out from the ruins and a large chunk of concrete brick wall has fallen several metres down the hill, uprooting two critically endangered pandanus trees. Although the owner, mining

magnate Brian Flannery, has organised for a picket fence to be built on the landward side of the escarpment there is no fence, or even any signage, on the beach side. Earlier this week, Echonetdaily reader and Sunrise resident Jan Hackett forwarded us a photograph of a family with their towels spread out directly below the collapsing foundations. Ms Hackett told us she had been communicating with Council for at least a year over the problem but had yet to see any improvements. She said that large lengths of electric cable and conduit had ended up in the tea tree stained creek and that she was concerned children playing in it could get caught up in the wiring and potentially drown. ‘Personally I think the

take place at the cenotaph, followed by the traditional ANZAC service in the hall. The Byron Bay activities will

commence with a 5.30am dawn service at the gates of the memorial in Marvell Street. Marchers are then asked to assemble outside the Beach Hotel at 10am for the march to the memorial for a service at 11am. There will be two-up at the Byron Bay Services Club from 2pm. The Brunswick Heads – Billinudgel Sub-Branch of the RSL will assemble at the hall in Fawcett Street at 4.50am to march to the cenotaph. Following the service there will be a parade around the town which will culminate in a breakfast at the hall afterwards. The Mullumbimby service will begin at 4.30am at the cenotaph. Later in the morning there will a march from the railway park to the cenotaph, gathering in the park at 10.45am. A lunch for members and their gusts will be held at the Ex-Services Club followed by two-up and raffles.

from the recent storms and large ocean swells,’ he added. A spokesperson for Mr Flannery’s Byron Events company, Jeremy Holmes, told The Echo the erosion ‘is a concern to us, and my staff have been progressively cleaning up the area after storms to collect any debris falling over the scarp, when it is safe to work there’. ‘The erosive issue is predominantly coming from the periodic meandering of the Belongil Estuary, usually associated with heavy rainfall and large seas. ‘Unfortunately there is very little we are able to do in the way of preventing further erosion,’ he said.

Following enquiries by The Echo, Byron Shire Council’s governance manager Ralph James acknowledged the building and road materials falling onto Belongil Beach are coming from ‘a private property’. ‘Compliance staff have spoken with the Belongil property owner who has assured them that the materials would be cleaned up,’ he told The Echo Q See the video of this story at via Council’s media liaison. ‘The materials on the beach are a result of coastal erosion Go to echonetdaily.net.au

Students have their say youth employment, lack of activities and resources for young people, consequences of drug and alcohol misuse, garbage and littering and lack of alternative education options. They also commented that cheap food stands and more youth workers around town would help engage young people in town at night in a more positive way. A questionnaire revealed that 92 per cent of participants knew a young person/persons in our local community who had accessed alcohol via secondary supply. But they had some positive and unique ideas to tackle problems, such as a membership system for buses with suspensions for problem behaviour. Some have nominated to join a group, facilitated by BYS, which would choose different activities each session.

Students from our four local high schools came together during National Youth Week for a youth forum focusing on what the issues are for them in Byron Shire and looking at what some solutions might be. Forty-five young people attended, which was impressive in itself, being the second last day of school term. All the students participated and were respectful and came up with some great ideas and solutions, which BYS will be feeding back into the larger Building A Better Byron process. Participants almost unanimously agreed that although they cared about Byron Shire, they didn’t feel connected to it. They felt that the main issues for local young people were lack of transport, lack of employment opportunities, is- Q Deborah Pearse is from the sues with legalities concerning Byron Youth Service

Outcry against NSW planning changes Staff reporters

Critics say the long-awaited overhaul of NSW’s planning laws will silence local communities and create a developers’ paradise. But the government claims the most significant revamp of the system in more than 30 years has public consultation as its centrepiece. New laws will require the state government and councils to consult early with the community in developing the long term planning ground rules for their region. But about 80 per cent of development proposals, including new homes and extensions, will be fast tracked under the agreed system and determined in less than 25 days. Residents will be informed but not consulted about such projects, and the state’s 152

councils won’t have the power to knock them back. The government estimates the process will save businesses and families about $174 million a year. ‘The community will be able to own this planning system. They will own what happens in their local area,’ said NSW planning minster Brad Hazzard.

Developers benefit But Greens MP David Shoebridge said the legislation was intended to benefit developers, while local councils would be ‘utterly sidelined’. They will also be outnumbered by ministerial representatives on regional planning boards in a ‘four against one’ system. ‘Local councils will become government patsies. They will just implement the decisions being made by the regional

planning boards,’ Mr Shoebridge said. Opposition Leader John Robertson said the planning laws gave developers everything they wanted. ‘It will exclude local communities from having a say at the most critical point of the planning process, when the detailed development applications go to a council, and no one in the local community will have a say on anything.’ Mr Hazzard said a ‘modest levy’ would be imposed for the first time on builders of new homes and apartments in existing suburbs, to provide funding for schools, roads and other infrastructure. The new charge would help spread the costs more evenly across the state. Currently, only developers in greenfield areas need to pay such levies. The minister said

the government was slashing millions of dollars in red tape, making new homes cheaper to build. Mr Shoebridge warned if the reforms became law, the first notice most people would have that a new house was being built next door ‘is when the bulldozers arrive’. He added that the proposal ‘takes the environment out of planning in NSW. In two pages the premier’s press release doesn’t mention the environment once – the word environment has been removed from the title of the legislation,’ he said. He added the legislation ‘removes the rights of residents to have any say on up to 80 per cent of developments’ and that local councils ‘will be reduced to rubber stamping decisions’. – with AAP

Mullum golf fundraiser netts $6,000

Double fatality in Tweed Heads

Story & photo Eve Jeffery

A man and a woman, believed to be a couple in their 80s, have died after a head-on collision near Tweed Heads on Sunday night. About 10pm, a Peugeot sedan and a Land Rover Discovery were travelling in opposite directions on the highway when they collided head on. The male driver of the Peugeot died at the scene. His female passenger was treated by ambulance paramedics, but died on the way to hospital. The pair is yet to be formally identified. The 20 year old female driver of the Land Rover has been taken to Tweed Heads District Hospital for treatment of leg injuries. Police from Tweed Byron Local Area Command are investigating the circumstances surrounding the crash, and anyone who witnessed the collision is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Golf club members and restauranteur Matt Jackson recently put in a mammoth effort to give the Mullumbimby Golf Club a much needed boost. A fundraiser was held recently at the popular Spice It Up Thai restaurant, located within the club, and members packed the tables while Matt filled their bellies. And the takings from the night? A very generous $6,000. After three years of unusually wet weather, the golf side of the club has suffered severely, limiting income. Prolonged wet weather is not the only issue at the club; its ageing membership has seen fewer new memberships, which has nudged the club into financial difficulty. Some members of staff work on a volunteer basis to help keep the club afloat, but the generous gift from Matt has

Electricity ground transfer invention hits a funding wall Hans Lovejoy

An invention that transfers electricity through the ground instead of by power lines is still struggling with investment. But local supporter and ‘strategic architect’ Ric Richardson says he’s confident the idea has a future. Gamma Power International Ltd director Keith Howard, who is based in Tumbi Umbi just north of Sydney, says he has lodged a patent for Wireless Power Transmission (WPT). His invention utilises a transmitter and receiver, which transfer high voltage through the ground. His modelling suggests that a 200 MW power transmitter would be 70 metres high and use the same frequencies as lightning. In his April 9 newsletter, Mr Howard claims the biggest problem he has been facing ‘has been the ability to legally raise funds, since the legal imposts on fundraising are unbelievable.’ ‘If we had funds we could www.echo.net.au

properly demonstrate the inventions.’ Ric agrees and told The Echo he has been approaching investors and universities, and one of the main issues is that investors want to see it independently built before any money is committed. But the cost of an operational model could run as high as $4 million, he says.‘I’ve spoken to a Queensland university, and so far we have some household name guys who say we need to do it in stages.’

Not implausible The first stage, he says, is a 1km and then a 10km distance test, which requires a million volts. ‘That will be up to six figures for that. The commercial model will be seven figures. The earth is very conductive, says Ric, and the invention just needs to prove in an ‘independent third party test environment’ that there is little power loss between transmitter and receiver. And that it’s safe. Electrical engineer and

CSG Free Byron Bay update While door to door CSG free surveys throughout the shire have progressed well, there is still a bit more work to do before completion, says resident Suzie Deyris. ‘All are at different stages,’ she told The Echo. ‘Some are completed with declaration days planned, while a couple have not started yet. We need some locals to step forward.’ Over the last month, she says more than one hundred volunteers have been carrying out the surveys, which ask resi-

free energy enthusiast Sapoty Brook told The Echo, ‘I personally don’t know of any reason why the concept should be considered implausible. ‘Considering the benefits of success it would be good to see a serious field test done. I think it should also be mentioned that Gamma’s main point of departure from Tesla [technology] is to make a capacitive connection to earth rather than a conductive connection. ‘This possibly has potential to create more resonance and better power transmission.’ Gamma’s online video claims the technology could supplant wires and poles, which can cause fires and be hazardous in natural disasters. Ric added possible future applications could include transferring electricity from geothermal power stations in central Australia, where erecting poles and wires is currently cost prohibitive.

that sort of time. ‘For a young married people that could be five or six hours away from your family.’ The Mullumbimby Club has now added another drawcard for the club: players can play any day of the week from 3pm – for $10 you can play as many holes as you like.

Ravi Shankar concert screening The life of sitar maestro Ravi Shankar will be celebrated at the Drill Hall, Mullumbimby on April 26 from 6.30pm. Live music by Sitar 7, freshly cooked Indian food and the film Ravi Shankar, Tenth Decade in Concert will screen. It’s his last recorded public concert, captured live in the US. After becoming a recognised sitar player in India during the 1940s and 1950s, Shankar toured Europe and America in the 60s, effectively introducing classical Indian music to the western world.

A day with local Council

‘Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one’ – Thomas Paine Hans Lovejoy

I wonder what the 18th century political activist Thomas Paine would make of our modern day local governance meetings? At least he couldn’t deny Byron Shire’s passion – argy bargy and humbug abounded at Thursday morning’s public access prior to Council’s marathon all day meeting. The morning kicked off with the long suffering markets policy. David Sweet from the Byron Bay Community Association made a plea for councillors not to dither with more committees over Byron’s policy for markets on Crown land.

Markets policy resuscitated Readers may recall the angst stall holders and market management expressed after Council announced a tender process was needed to align with state government requirements. It culminated in a Q&A night at the Byron Community Centre, hosted by Kerry O’Brien in 2011. And it’s been shelved – until now. The Byron markets are administered by the Byron Community Centre, which collects stallholder fees and maintains the Butler Street reserve (Crown land). Any tender obviously jeopardises the finances of the Community Centre. And unlike other community centres that are funded by their councils, Byron Council does not directly contribute, so such a change in policy has potentially negative affects for the organisation. Mr Sweet said, ‘Council hasn’t got a full handle on how to handle this tender.’ ‘You need expert advice. One example is the curious missing “cost benefit analysis” from the policy.’ Cr Di Woods took the opportunity to ask Mr Sweet about the Community Centre’s finances. She asked how much money the markets make. Mr Sweet replied that when he was treasurer between 2006 and 2010 it was between $22,000 to $55,000 per year, weather dependent. As for Council’s decision later in the day, they resolved to hold a workshop and ‘seek independent legal advice with expertise in competition policy…’ They requested the advice be returned within a month.

residents and the Bangalow School P&C association as being excessive and out of character with the town. After outlining his credentials as a town planner and an active Bangalow resident, Mr De Fina said, ‘The effort to stop this development should be acknowledged.’ ‘[But] I was refused meetings with the Bangalow School principal and the P&C. Police have also made their concerns known, yet I am unable to speak to any of the police who have these concerns.’ He then threatened legal action. ‘It will cost $200,000 in the Land and Environment Court, and the reasons for rejecting it would be hard to defend. I have convinced the owner to have another go, and would like to prepare a new application but want to sit down with those who oppose it. The alternative is see you in court. I was also refused help with the DCP (development control plan) with Council.’ He hinted at reducing the height and onsite parking in a future DA. ‘I want to see a solution,’ he said.

CSG not found here: resident

how badly her business fared over the recent Bluesfest event. She claims the the lack of a Bluesfest offramp was the main issue and the service station’s location became a drop off point for punters, which had a negative effect. ‘Our toilets were abused and after we closed them people urinated all around the area.’ She also claimed she has been unable to negotiate with the festival organisers. ‘Bluesfest will not consult with us’, she said, ‘They say they’re not responsible.’ Traffic controllers were turning away customers to the service station, she claimed, and there was no security provided. ‘We’d like to work this out with Bluesfest,’ she added. (For the traffic controllers’ take on events, see letters to the editor on page 11).

North Byron Events Temporary use of the North Byron Events site on Bayshore Drive for small cultural events (with some event camping) has been granted. A condition of consent was a ‘vegetation management plan’ that is ‘reflective of the scale and short duration of the application.’ Miranda Burne from Save Our Sunrise (SOS) told The Echo, ‘SOS was disappointed some councillors bowed to pressure from the developers and voted to water down the environmental planning for the North Beach festival site, which is owned by coal miner Brian Flannery. We look forward to seeing the results of ongoing monitoring of the environmental and social impact of the festivals.’

A lone voice questioned the coal seam gas free lobby next, as Belongil resident John Vaughn addressed Council. He asked why so much time is spent on debating CSG when there is no evidence of it being in the shire. ‘The Clarence Morton basin is where it’s located,’ he said. ‘That’s in Bexhill, not here.’ Claiming the issue has become political, he referred to Cr Duncan Dey’s current motion on the topic as wasting time. He insisted that potholes and traffic jams Schoolies funding shifts be Council’s focus. ‘CSG is not an issue Schoolies this year will be around $9,000 here because there’s no CSG.’ He claimed short in operational costs after Council depast environmental issues locally included cided to refocus the cash to summer activisand mining and gas methane leaks from ties. The decision will surely put pressure rubbish tips. ‘There are also thousands of on the business community to contribute ex-cattle dip sites all over the shire…’ more to the event.

Comment

Foundering on the founding fathers’ faults Volume 27 #45

April 23, 2013

Australia’s two horse media cartel I honestly can’t tell the difference between Fairfax and News Ltd any more, especially after the Herald went tabloid and Gina Rinehart’s toxic influence infected it. A recent Chinese junket shared by both the PM’s department and mining magnate Andrew Forrest provides some evidence, however. Crikey’s Matthew Knott revealed last week that both Fairfax and News Ltd’s expenses were paid by Andrew Forrest’s Fortescue Metals Group and that payment wasn’t disclosed. And both Fairfax and News Ltd didn’t think it was a problem. Presumably Forrest innocently wanted to make a few new friends while hoping no one would mention Tibet or the Falun Gong. And it worked – having your own media tag along ensures those awkward questions are never asked. Knott says that Mark Pearson, an expert in media law and ethics at Griffith University, told Crikey media outlets should disclose paid travel and accommodation within their stories or in a footnote at the end. ‘The mainstream media needs points of difference from the new media,’ he said. ‘They don’t do it at their peril. It’s what distinguishes them from the riff-raff.’ But why bother with a point of difference when you both control almost everything? According to The Australian Collaboration’s Democracy in Australia – Media concentration and media laws document (found at www.australiancollaboration.com. au), ‘Currently two newspaper groups (News Limited and John Fairfax Holdings) account for over 90 per cent of the circulation of daily newspapers, and Australia has only three commercial television networks.’ So Woolies and Coles own the food and if it wasn’t for the ABC, News Ltd and Fairfax would own the information. A misconception about big media is that it behaves like any corporate organisation. It simply doesn’t. In addition to customer relationships and shareholder obligations, it has a unique role in democratic societies. The fourth estate, as it was once called, provided societies with critical analysis of those in charge. Not any more. Given the current climate of sucking up to mining, would more media diversity just mean that Mr Forrest and the PM would have to charter more planes for overseas junkets? Hans Lovejoy, editor

T

he real problem is not actually the ham-fisted style of the Gillard government or the self-important greed of the premiers: it is the constitution under which they are compelled to operate (but not co-operate). Our founding fathers, who were politicians driven by much the same conflict between idealism and ambition as most of the present lot, wanted to keep as much of the real power in the hands of their own former colonies as practicable. Thus some of the most complex administrations, including education and health, remain the responsibilities of the states. But increasingly the ability to collect the revenue needed to pay for them has devolved to the Commonwealth. Starting with customs duty and tariff, the feds now run all the big ones – company and income tax and the GST – while the states are left with payroll tax and stamp duty. This is what the economists call vertical fiscal imbalance, and they don’t like it. But the only real way to fix it is for the states to start levying more taxes of their own, and although there is nothing in the constitution to prevent them, they are naturally reluctant to do so; the system whereby Canberra bears most of the odium of gathering the loot and they get most of the credit for spending it suits them very well. Equally predictably, the Commonwealth is rather less keen on this cosy arrangement, and wants a more active role in the spending. The feds already have effective control of the carve-up between the states – who get how much and when – but in recent years they have also wanted a say in what for. The rationale behind this further intrusion is that, with better communications and a more mobile population comes a need for greater uniformity. People should not have to expect different laws, regulations

and standards whenever they cross those mythical lines imposed more than a century ago by bureaucrats in Whitehall, and this applies particularly with education. If section 92 of the constitution mandates the free movement of goods between states, why not that of schoolchildren? Well, reply the states, because they know better than the shiny bums in Canberra what the people need and want; they are clos-

billion a year, or better $6.5 billion; Gillard offered $14.5 billion over six years, funded on a two to one basis from the Commonwealth and states. It may not, as her critics protest, have been the full Gonski, but it wasn’t a bad bid, and the point of it was that the money would be very carefully targeted on a needs basis; which meant, inevitably, that the schools doing badly would get more than the schools doing well, and that this would be

And as sovereign entities they have a right, and at times even a duty, to legislate for diversity rather than uniformity; after all, isn’t competition supposed to be the ultimate economic good? And this is the impasse Julia Gillard confronted last weekend and which has made her crusade for schools reform just about mission impossible. Just about, but not quite, because all but the terminally confused (Christopher Pyne) realise that the present system just isn’t working. Not only is Australia slipping rapidly down the international league tables, but within the country, the gap between the good and barely adequate schools (and for that matter the good and barely adequate states) is getting worse. Only a radical overhaul has a hope of fixing things and David Gonski and his fellow researchers saw that the starting point had to be a big injection of funds – the sort of funds that could only come from the commonwealth. Gonski wanted $5

again went for the blockbuster approach. Even for a prime minister in a near-impregnable position this would have been tactless; coming from Gillard, besieged on all sides and rapidly approaching lame-duck status as the election draws closer, it smacks of a death wish. And just to confirm her political hubris she added that her schools reforms would be partly funded by cuts to the universities. Actually, as her ministers hastily tried to explain, they were not really cuts, just a sort of slowing down of the rate of increase, but the damage was done: the predictable chorus of ‘robbing Peter to pay Paul’ drowned out any attempt at justification – not that there was much anyway. Ever since 1972, when Gough Whitlam introduced free tertiary education to Australia, the universities have been Labor’s sacred sites. Whitlam’s system has been watered down, but a frontal attack of this kind came close to fouling the party’s own nest. And to drive the point home, David Gonski himself, who had stayed very deliberately out of it all until now, publicly dissociated himself from the move. It is possible, even probable, that Gillard will salvage something from the wreckage. The Labor states of South Australia and Tasmania together with the ACT will probably sign up, New South Wales looks promising, Victoria continues to talk and even Queensland is still willing to negotiate. Gillard has signalled that she will go ahead even without unanimity. But it is not likely that she will get what was supposed to be her great signature reform delivered as promised, and even less so that it will be sufficiently embedded to survive a change of government. And hasn’t that been the story of her prime ministership?

reflected in the allocations to the various states. Viewed from this perspective, the fact that Western Australia was offered a relatively meagre $300 million was a source not of complaint but of congratulation: instead of whingeing about being short-changed, Premier David Barnett should have been up on stage proudly displaying his elephant stamp. But of course the federal system does not work like that, or as Paul Keating put it less delicately, never stand between a premier and a bucket of money. So Barnett wants more. Actually, he’ll probably get more: there is room in Gonski-Gillard for top-ups for schools with particular needs (lots of Indigenous, disadvantaged and non-English speaking pupils, for instance) which would certainly apply to some of the outback areas of Western Australia. But instead of conducting those sort of negotiations in advance and explaining both to the premiers and the public the way Q See Mungo live at the whole thing was going to work before making her grand announcement, Gillard once www.echonetdaily.net.au

Money better spent

In last week’s Echo (‘$40m crime prevention funds up for grabs’) Justine Elliot told us that the federal government has $40m to spend on law and order projects. (Is there an election soon?) Surely our federal government needs to be thinking at a more strategic and long-term level. That $40m, divided by Australia’s population, equates to just $1.74 per Australian. I vote for my $1.74 to go to any big projects that are properly the responsibility of the federal government, like the National Broadband Network, proper water baseline testing before CSG or even Elliot honouring her 2004 promise to invest in our rail line and link NSW with Queensland along the coast.

Crocodile tears

I would like to respond to Michael Balson’s suggestion of a discussion of pre-election policies (Letters, April 16).

Church dumps fossil fuel The Uniting Church’s Synod of NSW/ACT has determined as a matter of policy that it should divest from corporations engaged in the extraction of fossil fuels. We believe that rapid expansion of fossil fuel mining (particularly coal and coal seam gas) in Australia is directly threatening agricultural land, human health and biodiversity.

As a church we stand in solidarity with those farmers who fear for their security, health and future way of life at this time. Similarly, valuable forest and conservation areas, which include the habitats of some rare and endangered species, are at risk of irrevocable damage. Caring for creation is a strong part of Christian tradition. We are called to be wise

stewards of the earth. In terms of our fragile planet, we are facing an ecological crisis. Respect for nature and ecological responsibility are key parts of our faith. The Uniting Church hopes this will also encourage your readers as they make similar stands for justice.

It should be obvious to everyone by now that until there is some stability and opportunity in countries in crisis that asylum seekers will continue to pour out of afflicted areas no matter which party is in power. Both major parties cry crocodile tears over people drowning at sea and present their policies as moved by compassion when it is obvious that both are motivated by political embarrassment. It could turn out to be an extreme irony that allied forces will withdraw from Afghanistan while Mr Rabid is in power. Now nobody in their right mind believes that Afghanistan will not revert to warlordism of some variety after withdrawal. Already many former warlords have been ‘democratically’ elected to positions of power in government and of course some groups in Afghanistan will regard the withdrawal as a

declaration of open season on the Hazara people. The refugee problem will probably be more extreme under Abbott than it is now. The other great puzzle to me in the immigration debate is why it is deemed dishonourable to be deemed an ‘economic’ migrant. Surely the urge to improve your own and your family’s material situation is an understandable and commendable goal. Nearly all people living in Australia today either came as economic migrants themselves or are descendants of economic migrants. Even the convicts could be regarded as ‘non-voluntary’, ‘economic’ migrants as most of them were sentenced to transportation for crimes against property – theft, fraud, forgery etc – due to poverty. How will Abbott respond? If he’s too macho and hairychested about the situation

he will only further destroy Australia’s reputation abroad – even if it goes down well with the electorate – a reputation already tarnished by Labor’s virtual adoption of John Howard’s policies.

The Roundhouse: history repeats in many variations Q I have been following the Roundhouse saga for some time and apparently unlike most of the councillors, senior staff and managers, I have read the extensive Local Government Report written on the Roundhouse following a local government investigation which was published in 1994. Wow! What an entanglement of legal mish-mash. In short, readers may not be aware that Council spent over $2.75 million of ratepayers’ money trying to convince the court that the land should be zoned and valued for ‘Community Purposes’ as an art gallery.

Despite Council adopting practices that led the investigators to consider recommending the matter to ICAC, in order not to pay the owners the correct value of the property, the council was eventually forced to acquire the building at its ‘Highest and Best Use’ zoning which is the law in acquisitions. The council also ultimately had to pay $1.4 million on top of the $2.75 million legals to acquire the property. The owners had to pay their own legals which exceeded $750,000 and had to agree not to proceed against Council for allegedly defamatory comments made in Coun-

cil minutes against them. Having refused the owners the right to develop the land for 13 years the council immediately rezoned the land and demolished the Roundhouse building in order that they could develop it themselves. They have failed completely to follow the recommendation in the Report Chapter 5.20: ‘The community likewise has a right to participate in determining the ultimate use of the site. It will have to bear the cost of the acquisition as well as the cost of any development which the council might subsequently undertake. Having been led to believe that the council was going to acquire the site for community purposes, the community should be involved in deciding whether such a use of the land is still warranted and, if not, what strategies should

be implemented for maximising both the potential of the land and the benefits to the community which should accrue from any future development. I note that the council has, in fact, initiated a process of community consultation for this purpose.’ It’s about time Don Page had a hard look at this again. I believe the Ocean Shores community has been denied justice.

Q Yesterday, with one bewildered ingénue dissenting, our councillors once again voted to sell the embattled Roundhouse site in Ocean Shores (OS). Eight years ago the same decision was made... Accompanied by a diminished band of ageing sign-

wavers, former councillor and OS-whinger-in-chief Jan Mangleson treated us to a turgid rendition of her No 1 speech. (My experience of Jan on council is that she only has two [long] speeches, both heavily predicated on Ocean Shores as a third-world country.) Like a gaggle of latter day Uriah Heeps, councillors (one honourable exception) grovelled to the OS paranoid-deprivation-syndrome and promised that the proceeds of the sale would be spent north of the Brunswick River – hope they had their fingers crossed behind their backs! Sadly absent from the meeting was an insight from Fast Buck$.

guerre. Buck$ is very familiar with the sharp operators and helpful Council decisions that left OS infrastructure-deprived – but still a very desirable place to live. Ever since the developers departed counting their money (check out the ICAC inquiry into north coast land deals), sections of the OS Old Guard have been fermenting resident resentment in an attempt to have the rest of the shire pay for the shortcomings as well as their pie-in-the-sky grand projects. Now that the ‘poison well ploy’ has failed and the Roundhouse site is again for sale, I expect something like an onsite vision of the Virgin Mary with Jan then declaring it an antipodean Lourdes.

Letters be confidential. Council staff might for their own purposes issue a press release about a forthcoming ‘confidential report’, but that doesn’t mean that Council will necessarily vote for it to be so – or that The Echo needs to do the staff ’s bidding by treating it as a fait accompli. What typically happens at a Council meeting is that I get to complain about confidentiality during public access at the beginning of the meeting. If I’m still present when the actual matter comes up for debate I’m still stuffed: Council may vote against confidentiality but I haven’t had the chance to read the report and my opportunity to speak has already passed anyway! Franz Kafka and Joseph Heller would fully understand. Also typical is the following sequence in the staff report: ‘That the meeting be closed to the public because (a) there is information which, if publicly known, would confer a commercial advantage on a person with whom the council is conducting business; (b) on balance it is considered that open discussion would be contrary to the public interest, as disclosure would confer a commercial advantage (etc, etc).’ Any dickhead can see that (b) is merely a rewording of (a). In other words there is only one stated reason for confidentiality, not two as implied. Even then we are not favoured with the slightest hint of what kind of information

Get Echo news daily: www.echonetdaily.net.au is to be kept secret, not even a broad heading; we are simply invited to entirely trust the staff and our elected mullets – as if. The previous proposal regarding the Roundhouse and the Ocean Shores Country Club was public and the club rejected council’s offer. The urge for secrecy this time round makes me suspicious that council’s offer this time is too generous, not good value for ratepayers’ money. So perhaps the staff simply don’t want other business operators to see how gullible BSC is. That must be it. Fast Buck$

Mental health issues

I find it really sad that I end up supporting people with mental health problems on buses and on the street as there is nowhere for them to go other than hang around the park and get more fragmented. Since Ontrack pulled out of Mullum, after they took over Bay Ami and then fed it to the wolves, there is now no safe place to go that offers support or recovery programs so those sensitive folk can go out for the day and ‘do something!’ The neighbourhood centre offers no programs in this regard and they don’t specialise in dealing with people with mental health issues. There is a half day program in Bruns run by the old clients that Ontrack shoved to them as they

left. There is a huge gap now the cottage is no more. I am sure the north coast health service is up to its eyeballs in work and would appreciate an NGO or similar coming in and offering programs to the sensitive community. I was told that a submission was put to the state government for a ‘Headspace’ program for younger people with mental health issues, but it was refused even though we have had more suicide in the shire than we can stomach. From Tweed to Lismore there is nothing and many that live here in the shire rarely venture to either due to transport costs and ill-timed timetables. Any philanthropist out there that want to be of service to the sensitive folk in our community? This is a gap that must be filled. Odette Nightsky

Ummm, what? So far this week I have been told the West is racist against Muslims (who aren’t a race) and that’s why the Boston marathon may have been bombed by Muslims, if it was bombed by Muslims, and so it’s our fault. I have been told that the atheist West is racist against Christians (who are not a race) because of Bosnia, where the West protected the Muslims from Christian Bosnians. I have been told that we were racist against Muslims in Bosnia too, because we were

protecting the wrong brand, so it doesn’t count. I have heard from the Syrian rebels that they are fighting against the western-backed US puppet regime. I have heard from the Syrian regime that they are fighting against the western-backed, US puppet rebels. I have been called a Christian, a Muslim, a nigger lover, a Jew, a communist, and a Nazi, because I have said guns are dangerous, and bombing people is wrong. But apparently if you are a Muslim fundamentalist, a Christian evangelist, a defender of the white race, or a freedom loving patriot, guns are great, and shooting/bombing people is sometimes okay. But don’t blame them. They didn’t do it. Unless they did. And if they did: It’s My Fault. Helpfully, Alan Jones has added left-wing students to the suspicion list. Yep, could be me too. And an American primetime presenter has labelled us Aussies all racists, because some people he met in Sydney’s west don’t like Lebanese Muslims. No. What we don’t like are violent people who use guns and plant bombs, intimidate others and tell us it is Our Fault. Regardless of race, religion, or colour: Calm The Fuck Down, or your religion is not a religion, your cause is not a cause, your culture is not a culture. You are just a gangster. It Is Not Our Fault.

Pied Piper of Aquarius: amazing little spaces in song of Aquarius.’ When we formed the White Kompany, a group of twelve multiskilled performers, and took it on tour around the nation to promote the festival, the ‘spirit’ came with us too. We finished every show with the song. In November 1972, the AUS decreed that no land would be bought, either to hold the festival, or to start any community on afterwards. Following a tip from Colin James, the plan now was to recycle the actual ghost township of Nimbin. Again I was crestfallen, because we had been eyeing off a 1,040 acre property at Tuntable Falls. I got another plan, this time it might work. Just put the idea out there. Maybe we could start a big community there, after the festival.

By Paul Joseph, as told to Graham Askey ‘Get a trade son, then whatever happens, you’ll always have something to fall back on.’ Back in the sixties these fatherly words of advice were echoed in nearly all of the working class homes in the dirty old town of Newcastle. So a young Paul Neilson found himself in the Hunter District Water Board’s workshop boring holes in a never ending stack of pipe flanges. It was boring all right. Singing folk songs was much more interesting. By the middle of 1967, fed up with being factory fodder, he decided to drop his apprenticeship, tune up his guitar, and turn on to the road out of town. As journeyman, now in his own chosen trade, Paul Joseph, the troubadour, was travelling on. Falling back? No way.

Welcomed

Like Shangri-la After three years on the road, I joined a scene which was Mullumbimby bound. I became part of ‘Kohinur’, one of Mullum’s original communes. Living among so many likeminded, peace loving and happy hippies and eating, milk and honey, paw paws and bananas (which the locals generously shared), it was like ‘Shangri-la’ to me. I did go back to the city, to perform in the original cast of Jesus Christ Superstar, but after nine months Main Arm called me back. On my return, in August 1972, I had an inspiration to hold a fair in Mullumbimby to display the new lifestyle that we’d forged in the hills. I had in mind an event, where, by getting to know us better, the town would have no need to be nervous. So I called the first public meeting of the hippies in Main Arm to garner support for my idea. A good crowd of about 60 turned up but I was dumbstruck when the reaction to my proposal pretty much was: ‘Je-

sus, man, cool it, let’s keep this place to ourselves. Who needs to be swamped?’ Not understanding why nobody shared my enthusiasm and feeling brought down and disillusioned I left the commune and went into retreat, to lick my wounds, in an old banana shed up the top of Palmwoods. Only two weeks later I got a late night visit. It was Graeme Dunstan, Vye Tourle and Johnny Allen, Australian Union of Students (AUS) organisers. They’d come knocking to see if I could help with their plan of a country Uni Arts Festi-

val. When they said they had a hundred grand to spend I brightened up and said, ‘I’ve got a plan. We could buy some land, have the festival on it, and then create a community of equals.’ They dug it. Gee, I’d been invited ‘back on the bus.’ The next day we drove up to Brisbane – to a students’ meeting at a house in St Lucia. Graeme laid a very passionate rave on them, about learning how to save the world at a bush festival, without a program, with no stars, where everyone will be their own artist. Many of the students were just as passionate and fired back, that

it was naïve, unrealistic and unachievable. The meeting became disrupted and quite heated. Oh no, not this again. ‘So hoping to relax and centre things I started to strum the chords from an Incredible String Band song, which included the words of an old Irish blessing. Then I started singing the words and it wasn’t long before everybody joined in. It was like the ‘spirit’ had taken over and all of the arguments turned into applause. That was how the chant of ‘May the long time sun shine upon you . . .’ became the ‘Anthem

In March 1973, we heard that, for the traditional owners, the Bundjalung people, the Nimbin area was taboo for women. We didn’t understand quite what that meant, but since we hadn’t exactly planned the festival to be something like a university army cadet camp, we decided that we’d better seek out the Bundjalung elders for their advice. We talked to Uncle Lyle Roberts in Lismore and Dicky Donnelly, a ‘Songman’ from Woodenbong. They welcomed our festival to country and, concerning the taboo, we got the wink. During the festival we had a tribal ritual in the Magic Circle where I’d play ‘May the longtime sunshine’ every morning to set the mood for the day. The kids loved it. One day we decided to take it across the road. We started out with half a dozen people and as we went, people jumped out of their tents to join us. Snaking through the site we soon had hundreds, maybe thousands, of happy campers falling in behind us. It was the most amazing musical experience of my lifetime to feel so connected, to so many people. The song went on and on for

what seemed like hours until it got to the point where I thought ‘we need to change this song, but how do you stop a thousand voices?’ but then we got to an incredible, tiny second of silence where we were able start up another song and then we did ‘Come on you people, smile on your brother…’ and that was a precious moment, an amazing little space between us, where we were all listening. It was the absolute essence of the beauty of music. That is my special memory of the festival. Many echoes, from the bell that rang out at Aquarius, can still be heard today. For example; respect for the first settlers, both black and white, now all of the colours of the rainbow have been added to the palette of the north coast, the pioneering of some new versions of land sharing, but for me the most important is our commitment to the protection of the environment where I believe we have been leading the world for more than 30 years.

In Lovemore Paul did become an original shareholder in the Tuntable Co-op, the biggest ‘commune’ on the north coast, but found it necessary to leave after about five years. He now lives in a suburb of Lismore. It might seem that he hasn’t managed to live out his desire of community living. But, just look around you, the dream is alive and well. Come to the ‘Aquarius in Lovemore’ (renamed after Paul charmed Mayor Jenny Dowell with a bunch of dahlias) event, to be held in the Star Court Theatre, May 9–12, and join in another rousing round of ‘and the pure light, within you guide your way home’.

Echo Beach Surf zombies rise from the Wreck All of the lead up events have been played out and next weekend the Surf Zombies will descend on Byron Bay for the culmination of the Volcom Let The Kids Ride Free Australian VQS Surf Series Championships. The purpose of the program is to create a unique environment, not a typical contest, but more like a gathering. It is where people can come together and hang out, without all the fees, rules, stipulations and lack of camaraderie of a normal surfing event. The Let The Kids Ride Free events are about giving back to the surf community and making it possible for kids without sponsors or money to compete, be able to show off their talent, pushing the next generation to be better than the last. The VQS Champs will be held in Byron Bay, where the dead walk among us. This year, Volcom warn everyone to be prepared to be frightened. ‘The Zombies have risen from The Wreck and they’re coming for you!’ Finalists have qualified from one of the five VQS events held around the country over the past year. Last Sunday, runner-up in the VQS D’Bar juniors Quinn Bruce came down from his home break on the Goldy to check out the lay of the land and sea. ‘I have surfed here a few times before’, says Quinn who at just fifteen years of age, is staring a stella professional career right in the eyes. Quinn has been surfing since he was seven and says that he will finish year ten and then concentrate on the waves. Quinn was a

stand out all day in his event of the VQS series held on September 22 last year, throwing down some huge scores to take second in the final. Another surfer to be on the lookout for is Mitch Parkinson who just this last weekend took out the first event of the Chiko Queensland Championship Circuit (QCC), the MP Classic, in excellent waves at Duranbah Beach on the Gold Coast. With a total of 18.06 (out of a possible 20), 17-year-old Parkinson held off fellow Snapper Rocks surfer, Mitch Crews – 16.13, Brazil’s Italo Ferreira – 14.10 and Coolangatta’s Clancy Dawson – 10.60 in a high-scoring final. ‘I’m

ecstatic’, he said after his win. ‘I’ve just been training with my coach for so long have a good result and it’s been such a long time coming, I’m just so happy it’s finally come.’ Mitch came first in his VQS event at D’Bar and is now in the running for the major prize at Byron – The winner of the Pro Am division along with the international winners (Japan, Indo, Brazil, Latin America, South Africa, Europe, and the USA) will win a trip to Fiji to compete in the World VQS Championship event during Volcom’s Fiji Pro next year. This competition will run in between the Fiji Pro and will also be broadcast globally. The action starts this weekend in Byron. Visit the Volcom website for more details www.volcom.com.au.

Value of time There is currently hope that car users will eventually wake up and use the newly built bicycle ways. That is unlikely to happen while the society functions around the aphorism that time is money. Car use shortens the time of a journey. Reduced times of journeying translate to added time to do things other than journeying, such as working and earning money. Reasonably, if people were pushed out of their cars and onto bikes, it would either reduce their hours of work or their existing quality of life in things they do beyond work such as interplay with family; it would either make them time or wealth poor. If there is recognition of bicycle ways as a solution to a major environmental problem of car use, then planning needs to take place to ensure mass bicycle use takes place without increasing discontent.

ever solutions come into play in future for overcoming the environment crisis, the movement of money from the economic to the social and the environmental is the only means by which it can occur. A range of measures need to be in place to soften the process of reducing personal wealth. Industry needs to be regulated to ensure essential articles are comparatively long-lasting and their parts interchangeable and easily replaced. Loss of employment created by this measure requires the movement of redundant workers to ownership of small gardening farms that are moving toward autonomy or self-sufficiency, but entwined with neighbouring farms to benefit from specialisation and value-adding of produce.

Regional autonomy The cost of rural land reduces as farm movement toward polyculture and away from monoculture is facilitated by measures to phase out export of food and fibre. The increasing autonomy of regionalised and interconnecting small farms reduces the need for town journeys. A further requirement to

ameliorate loss of personal wealth concerns the politics of envy. It is entirely likely that the reduction in one’s ability to buy manufactured items is not a major problem providing what are currently regarded as essentials are readily obtainable, and providing one’s neighbour is undergoing the same reduced materialism as oneself.

Return to equality Reduction in industry dependence means that the accumulation of capital necessary to provide factory infrastructure reduces. As it does so, the necessity of having some people holding a lot of capital, while most have little, also reduces. In effect, humankind finds its way back to that expanded state of consciousness occurring soon after the development of the pre-frontal (cerebral) cortex, and continued by most tribal people, but lost by civilisations, of understanding that human survivability was facilitated by equality. Daniel Quinn in his discussion of what he calls the new tribal revolution, in Beyond civilization, Humanity’s Next Great Adventure, suggests it is the natural state of humanity to be classless and egalitarian, open and cooperative.

There is no evidence that if humans, with equality, move away from materialism and ruralise in communities less than 150 people they will primarily experience unhappiness. According to Robin Dunbar, Professor of Evolutionary Psychology at Oxford university, and expanded by Malcolm Gladwell in The Tipping Point, ‘Beyond 150 the human brain must resort to some combination of hierarchical schemes, stereotypes and other simplified models in order to understand so many people.’ (3) There, arguably, in the mass urbanisation of humanity, may be a root cause of human unhappiness. Furthermore, since WWII, the regular polling of Americans with ‘Are you happy with life?’ shows that the percentage agreeing peaks in 1956, but has slowly and steadily declined ever since despite an incredible increase in wealth. (4)

All connected

This is in accord with the findings of Professor of Sociology at Boston College, Juliet Schor who says, ‘A growing mountain of research shows … the additional well-being available from increased income is surprisingly limited.’ (5) So it’s all connected. The movement to bicycle ways is not an ad hoc response, easily settled by just building bicycle ways. It is a response where the society moves as one, with a raft of measures designed to reduce materialism, so people as a side effect find more benefit Role of deception getting on a bike than driving a car, or, humanity organises Andrew Whiten, a professor itself in such a way that it is not of evolutionary and develop- disturbed in primarily being mental psychology, suggests a here, now. sort of evolutionary spiral for early humans occurred when Q References: 1.

MAKING AN NEWSTART BY CHOPPING SINGLE PARENTS’ HEADS WITH THE GILLARD-TINE Since January 1 this year, Gillard’s master plan to get single parents off their lazy good-for-nothing arses came into effect. If you are a single parent and your youngest child has turned eight, then you will have seen your weekly benefits cut by as much as $130 per week. We’re talking around 84,000 of this country’s poorest families. Nice work, Julia, we’ve just made parenting – what most people claim as the ‘hardest job in the world’ – a whole lot harder. There are families now that are so far below the poverty line they not only don’t know it’s a line, they’re using it as a roof. And guess who suffers? The kids. I’m tempted to ring DOCS to make a report. ‘Hello? Is that child protection? I am wanting to report Julia Gillard for putting tens of thousands of Australian children at risk.’ So parents of school age children have to take on more work. Assuming that most employers operate outside the hours of 9am– 3pm, what does this mean for the kids? Not only do single parent families make a loss on the financial ledger, they’ll also be losing it on the emotional ledger as well. Single parents who are already under significant stress because they have been doing everything that two people would normally do now have to make up the missing dollars from the family budget by working longer hours, incurring extra costs from putting their kids into after school and vacation care and the kids in turn will be losing valuable parent contact time. Or maybe there will be a whole new generation of latchkey kids who return home to an empty house and wait for mum or dad to get back from work. Eight year olds locking themselves inside and having to pretend they’re not there in case social services discovers yet another case of a single parent ‘neglecting’ their child. ‘You wouldn’t believe it. That woman next door lets that eight year old kid reputation as one of the best live acts in the country. When you listen to their recent album Pocket Full of Dreams it is easy to see why it was named 2012’s Hip Hop Album. The evening starts with local support from Sistagurl, Supafresh and Scotty Brimstone making this one night not to miss.

LIONHEIR AT ELMO Traditionally an artsy folk songwriter, Lionheir moved from Sydney to a high hill near Byron Bay in 2010 to write rockinfused folk tunes. Amid forests, waterfalls and rivers, he crafted an album worth of his finest songs. He laid them down at Byron Bay’s Studio 301 last year and they comprised his debut album Lair, which has just been uncaged. At St Elmos in Byron on Sunday.

RUBENS GIVE THE BEST THEY GOT The Rubens have had a pretty amazing run so far, beginning with their album debuting at number #1 on the iTunes charts and an impressive #3 on the ARIA album chart. The band’s video for My Gun was nominated for Best Video at the 2012 ARIA Awards; they scored the J Award for Unearthed Artist Of The Year; and landed at #10 for My Gun and #66 for The Best We Got in the Hottest 100.

stay in that house for hours. It’s criminal. People like that shouldn’t have kids.’ That woman is out earning the money Gillard took off her so she can feed her kids and pay for the door that she can close to keep her family safe. What choices do these kind of government decisions leave people with? Single parents are an easy group to target because the general community has so much unwarranted prejudice about them and their legitimacy. Single parents themselves aren’t great advocates for their own liberty either because they’re too exhausted to speak out, or keep their heads low because of some sense of shame that they’ve somehow failed to be a proper family for their kids. I have been a single parent and I certainly remember the judgment. The question about your relationship status and then the downward inflection of the ‘Ohh. That must be hard.’ I grew up in a single parent family and I was always a bit embarrassed, firstly by our poverty, but mainly by the lack of a father. When I told people I lived in a family with my mum I heard pity in their voice. Like I was somehow disadvantaged. I felt real shame. There are lots of nasty jokes and innuendoes about single parents. Mainly about women who get pregnant on purpose to live off the government. Because it’s such a free ride to luxury living on welfare. It’s this ugly bigoted belief that upsets me the most. If men had to birth babies out the eye of their penis I wonder whether this belief system would still hold water. There may be women who live in such deprived socio-economic situations that the only options they see for themselves is having children. This is a blight on our society and the lack of proper options for economically and educationally disadvantaged people, not on the women in question. And certainly not on the child. It doesn’t matter how a child comes into being. It is here. And it is our responsibility as a community to offer every child a life free of poverty and struggle. Either that or single parents stage a mass action, and pop out a new child every seven years. One for me. One for you. And one for Julia Gillard.

LAUNCHING KENYON James Kenyon’s debut album The North Pole carves out the contours of the human condition, overlaying emotional peaks and plateaus on the topography of the Australian landscape. Nestled among layers of strings – acoustic guitar, double bass, banjo and fiddle – Kenyon’s stories provide a powerful reminder of the places and spaces that make the Australian experience unique: the broad skies, passing wheat silos, river crossings, grey suburbs and powerlines merge memory and imagination in song. Catch his unique indie-folk at the Treehouse in Belongil on Thursday.   

s r a t S WITH LILITH The Sun and Mars joining Venus in the sign of earthly delights happily somewhat cushions this Friday’s intense Scorpio full moon eclipse…

E ARIES: Mercury in Aries tends to send what astrologer Hunter Reynolds calls you ‘practitioners of audacious individuality’ into hyperdrive. You’ll need to practise patience (a trait not usually associated with astrology’s human equivalents of Mt Vesuvius) this week, so that hasty behaviour doesn’t sabotage your reputation and status. F TAURUS: The pleasant placement of Sun, sweet Venus and motivating Mars all in Taurus’s corner makes this your personal power week – positive planetary support you’ll be glad of if late week full moon’s lunation stirs up strife in your family or friendship area, hopefully regenerating close relationships. G GEMINI: Let this week’s trio of Tauran planets seduce mental-as-anything Twin into listening to let’s-get-physical Twin. Who may suggest not overdoing recreational pleasures, avoiding stressful scenes and people, or investigating some soul sustenance. Follow its advice and you’re likely to discover something others have somehow failed to register. H CANCER: A reasonably easygoing week of domestic pleasures, until Friday’s moody moon activates rogue emotions. Then it’s time to listen to your instincts: if they say stay out of the firing line, don’t ignore the

warning. If that’s not possible, then under the radar’s your second best bet. I LEO: This week revels in simple pleasures, the natural joys of our lovely embattled planet, with its downside a kind of dogged stubbornness. But issuing ultimatums won’t get cooperation in either money or love discussions, so have a go at rearranging priorities and trying to find workable compromises. J VIRGO: This Friday’s fierce full moon could force your focus into the feeling zone to face issues that have been simmering away under the surface. At times like these, we can all use support and guidance, so don’t be slow to reach out and ask for it. K LIBRA: April’s wild ride finally eases with this week’s Venus in Taurus tipping life’s balance towards cruise control. Though if emotions boil over around Friday’s lunar eclipse, give anyone who’s upset or aggressive plenty of space. And remember full moon always heightens the capacity for insights and revelations… L SCORPIO: A week of extremes: intense passions and pressing practicalities that necessitate stepping back, widening your perspective and making the spiritual choice over the emotional one. And speaking only if you really feel that what you have to say is an improvement on silence.

M SAGITTARIUS: Even your notorious optimism could take a buffeting this week if Friday’s lunar purge activates a backlash of doubts, worries, fears, judgments, feeling unappreciated and, worst of all, not knowing what’s going on. If this happens, ignore everything unimportant and get back to what matters: the love. N CAPRICORN: A trio of Taurus planets enhance this week’s sensual pleasures: foodie feasts, olympic imbibing, romantic marathons – though Friday’s rogue lunation could provoke troubling clashes, social challenges and/or tests of friendship loyalty. But if you’re willing to look beyond the obvious it could also blitz you with a mini-epiphany. O AQUARIUS: Think whatever’s happening this week’s someone else’s fault? Think again. Accept it or not, everyone’s our mirror. Whatever we receive is something we’ve put out: another difficult concept to swallow, and not everyone does. But why take my word when watching Cloud Atlas is way more fun? P P ISCES: This information-rich week promises original, radical ideas, along with a certain amount of difficulty dealing with the people expressing them. Still, it’s an opportunity for you to adjust – even abandon – what’s worked in the past in order to meet the changing realities of this lively time.

then; it opened up so many doors to write new songs. ‘Generally the inspiration comes when you least expect; often it’s when you are talking to people after a show. I was talking to a bunch of kids in Canberra after a show and they told me they’d come down from the hills from their farm and the show had been gold so I wrote a song called Gold. I was signing a song in Shepparton and asked what he did and he said I milk cows, that simple – it goes hand in hand with country music. As George Jones once said: “country music is three chords and the truth!” ‘I have always felt like the truth in the storytelling is what gives songs strength and makes them resonate, I have always tried to keep each album autobiographical. I have an inbuilt inclination to accentuate the positive; I believe in the law of attraction and I try and put the positive element into my music.’ Kernaghan is not your average country boy. He is a seeker of deeper things. ‘I follow Deepak Chopra. I got to meet Louise Haye a few years ago, and have been very inspired by Eckhart Tolle. I don’t want to beat people over the head with my beliefs but you have to wonder where the music is coming from. I give thanks to a higher power for that. It is an absolute gift. It’s definitely a spiritual process.’ Kernaghan believes that it’s his spiritual beliefs that give him such a rock solid foundation. ‘I think it’s helped give me balance in life. It’s always a constant battle between the material and the spiritual side of your life, and you want the spiritual to dominate more than the material – life throws all kind of different things to you so it’s nice to have those beliefs to fall back on. For me meditation is one of the greatest gifts – one of my missions is to mediate more, I try and do it morning and night.’ The life changing moment for Lee Kernaghan happened in a North Bondi bookshop when he picked up a copy of Autobiography of a Yogi. ‘Nothing was the same after that! It changed my life.’ And guess what, Kernaghan still writes songs about utes. Ain’t that something! Friday and Saturday at the Twin Towns Ex-Services Club, Twin Towns.

Not Your Average Boy from the Bush

LEE KERNAGHAN IS ONE OF AUSTRALIA’S most prolific music artists with two million records sold, 28 Golden Guitars, 33 #1 singles, and has twice been named the Country Music Hit Maker of the Decade in 2000 and 2010. Twenty years after the release of his first album, The Outback Club, Lee is back stronger than ever with his new release, Beautiful Noise. Not much slows him down. ‘I don’t get fatigued these days because I have got tour smart,’ he says. ‘Back in the mid 90s I was on tour nonstop and I didn’t take any breaks and I toured hard and played hard and partied hard, and I always felt burnt. These days I’ll do touring in a block of dates. Of course I still play hard and party hard!’ jokes Kernaghan. Kernaghan believes it is his songwriting that has helped set him apart from the pack. ‘It’s so easy to miss the mark,’ he says. ‘I missed it for a long time, then I came to the realisation that I needed to write songs about my own life and my own experiences and keep it real. I had resisted that before because I didn’t think it was interesting enough to write about. The first song was Boys from the Bush and nothing has changed since

BELL SHAKESPEARE COMES TO TYALGUM

BOOK REVIEWS Review by John Mitchell A wonderfully refreshing compilation of stories make up Jon Ronson’s ‘Lost Sea’. Known for his superbly funny ‘Men Who Stare At Goats’, Ronson is a comedic sceptic, who, in Lost At Sea, gently guides us through the world of UFOs, indigo children, Insane Clown Posse, altruistic kidney donation and suicidality among the nouveau riche. Each story unfolds as a personal journey for Ronson as he engages the strange worlds of various fringe groups and sects. Ronson remains respectful and nonjudgemental without the taint of contempt or thoughtless rejection. Ronson demands that we suspend disbelief, if only temporarily, to entertain the possibility that these people are just that – real people, doing nothing more than straining to make sense of their world. Case in point is the sect known as the Jesus Christians who challenge the law to freely donate kidneys to those in need. Ronson carefully navigates through the rhetoric, accusation and counter

He shows us the manipulations and power dynamics within the group but never loses sight of the humanity underpinning the actions of the participants. As an ageing skeptic who is not immune to adopting a superior and rather dismissive attitude to such groups, I was humbled, entertained and educated by Ronson’s narrative.

Cat and Fiddle By Lesley Jorgenson

Review by Rainbow Phoenix Cat and Fiddle won the 2011 CAL Scribe Fiction Prize for an unpublished manuscript. Marketed as a modern-day Pride and Prejudice, the novel follows the scandals and fortunes of two connected families. It takes Jane Austen’s style in the English country setting and meddling mother who wants nothing more than to marry off her offspring, but it is so much more than that. The Anglo-Bangladeshi Choudhury family is dissected and offered up in deliciously crafted and convincing characters. Jorgenson’s characterisation is nothing short of masterful. It’s a combination of an intricate plot, intriguing family webs, multiculturalism and the clash

between tradition and modernity, religion and culture. Mrs Begum triumphs over Austen’s Mrs Bennett. Her turn of phrase, Bengali cooking, penchant for gossip and micromanaging the lives of her children are so vivid. Likewise, the patriarchal figure of her professor husband with all his airs and graces and inner conflicts is one of the most brilliant characterisations I can think of. Their children are complex and compelling: artist Rohimun recovering from her ruined reputation, her over-the-top drama-queen sister, and Tariq, a former jihadist art curator grappling with his sexuality. Each character is as unique and tantalising as the next, so rich and vast. And the Bourne family they all bump into encounters the exotic with a sense of the English upperclass. This book has that miraculous ability to transport you that all good books should have. It’s a charming East-meets-West tale that is funny, poignant, engaging and delicious.

28 April 23, 2013 The Byron Shire Echo

There is a hair-splitting annoyance in the chronology of this; as a former member of the Weathermen, a radical group that protested against the Vietnam War through home-based acts of violence, Sharon Solarz (Susan Sarandon) has been arrested for her part in a shooting homicide that happened thirty years ago. This would have placed the event in 1982, seven years after the war ended. Now that I’ve got that off my chest… Robert Redford has directed an absorbing, provocative but dawdling movie that deals with the, for some, uncomfortable bedfellows of principles and terrorism and the fading urge to ‘maintain the rage’. He also plays Nick Sloane, a one-time activist who is still wanted by the FBI for his involvement in the Solarz case. Now living under the alias of James Grant,

he is a comfy, widowed, small-town lawyer with a gorgeous eleven-yearold daughter. When the past returns to haunt him, Sloane/Grant, motivated to clear his name, flees the law to track down Mimi (Julie Christie), the only person who can clear his name. To his credit, Redford does not try to hide his age – his wrinkled face resembles a relief map of the Gobi Desert – but when a man of seventy-two chooses to include so many scenes in which he is running, like a bloke escaping from a nursing home, you’d have to say that he’s taken his anti-ego campaign one gasping step too far. This is a particularly relevant story for those of us who would rather see yesterday stay in its allotted time frame,

where it might remain gilded, and Redford is honest enough to concede that even the most fiery ideologues are eventually wearied by the bogey of selfinterest. Shia LaBeouf is less annoying than usual as the reporter who is driven, as in All

The President’s Men, to uncover the truth, but the script strains itself in approaching the corny denouement – suffice to say, you should always expect the unexpected whenever you hear anybody say ‘I was adopted’. ~ John Campbell

thinking of Christopher Nolan’s Inception, a film most slavishly praised by those who had no idea of what it was about – the goal usually striven for by French philosophers. A rare Goya has been offered for sale at the London auction house where Simon (James McAvoy) works. A gang of art thieves led by Franck (Vincent Cassel) pull off a daring raid in which Simon takes an amnesia-inducing blow to the head – and the masterpiece goes missing. Elizabeth (Dawson), more willing than you might expect from a doctor of such high standing, then gets involved with the crooks in unraveling Simon’s suppressed memory and locating the canvas. Boyle goes beyond

traditional sleight of hand in creating his mystery, preferring the cheap option of withholding too much in order to impress with the surprise ending. McAvoy never looks comfortable in the part as he struggles to get a handle on just who exactly Simon is, while Cassel cruises through the mire with frosty Gallic detachment – even when

he gets half of his skull blown away. For all its labyrinthine plotting, what we are left with is yet more tits’n’arse and violence, supplemented by a lot of very loud music intended to pump up the stress and excitement. If you are happy to equate complexity with profundity, you’ll love it. ~ John Campbell

extreme to see a film that deals so uncompromisingly with the unspeakable. When police and the fire brigade smash their way into a Paris apartment they find the elegantly dressed corpse of an elderly woman, at peace on her bed. It is Anna (Emmanuelle Riva), but there is no sign of her husband Georges (Jean-Louis Trintignant). From this moment we flash back to find them enjoying a night out at a piano recital – Anna had been a renowned musician and teacher. They get the bus home, Georges has a nightcap and at breakfast Anna has an episode of impenetrable blankness. An unsuccessful operation fails to rectify the malfunction in her brain and after a series of strokes Georges finds himself hapless

as his darling wife begins to descend into a vegetative state. It is not a cheery scenario, granted, but Michael Haneke’s award winning movie (at the Oscars and Cannes), quiet, dimly lit and enclosed almost entirely within the walls of the couple’s home, draws you deeper by the minute into love most private, enduring and, in its inevitable way, cruel. Riva and Trintignant are magnificent, as is Isabelle Huppert as their distraught daughter Eva. We end where we began, but having arrived with Georges at a moment of pure transcendence. Earlier, looking through a photograph album, Anna pauses to say ‘It’s beautiful.’ ‘What is beautiful?’ ‘Life.’

Trance Fashions come and go in the cinema, but some things have proved to be as regular and reliable as Black Caviar. The minute that Rosario Dawson appeared as a Harley Street hypnotherapist, modestly dressed in colourless slacks and long-sleeved blouse, with her hair pulled back tightly, I thought to myself ‘I wonder when she’s going to get her gear off?’ And sure enough… we had to wait a little bit longer than normal for the bankable sex scene, but Rosario’s voluptuous full frontal nudity only served to undermine the hyper-cranial pretentions of yet another trendy brain-strain concoction. Or, as director Danny Boyle might argue, ‘a bit of soft porn goes a long way’. It is impossible to watch this without

Amour We don’t bat an eyelid as the body count soars in much of mainstream cinema. Dying heroically, tragically, in picaresque close up or as a background extra, clinically or with blood hosing from arteries, they drop like flies on the big screen. Death is so distant, we are immune to it until it makes an unwelcome visit to our own cocooned world. It might taunt us while we lie awake in the wee small hours, but what we’re really afraid of is old age. The ever increasing popularity of cosmetic surgery is a stark indicator of the terror with which we react to the passage of time. So it is confronting in the

Television Guide 1. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman star as sisters in Practical Magic (GO!, Saturday, 8.30pm), a fun witchcraft comedy based on the 1995 novel by Alice Hoffman. The sisters are raised by their witchy aunts, beautifully played by Stockard Channing and Dianne Wiest, who end up rescuing them in later life when Bullock’s character’s lover comes back from the dead to give them a hard time. 2. Not all action heroes take themselves too seriously. Jean-Claude Van Damme plays a semi-fictionalised version of himself as a down and out action star in JCVD (SBS2, Sunday, 10pm), a crime comedy-drama in which JCVD gets accidentally caught up in a post office heist and mistakenly identified as one of the robbers. It is only one in a series of humiliations as he fights to clear his name.

Muoi’s Feast has created a strong following since opening in 2003. Winning numerous awards for its international cuisine, the Asian section of the menu is the predominant favourite. Enjoy for dinner.

Depending on these other ingredients they may then become side dish or main event, and almost invariably, because the match is so heavenly and because it is a Favourite Food, cheese is involved. Especially a soft white cheese: feta or ricotta or goat’s curd. Baby beetroot baked individually in alfoil provide a wonderful textural and colour contrast to the pumpkin, as do strips of roasted and peeled red capsicum. Semi-dried tomatoes or slow roasted Romas. Green beans blanched briefly then thrust under cold water so their vibrancy and their crunch remain. Baby spinach or wild rocket tossed through toward the end. Really, pumpkin must be one of the more versatile of vegetables, compatible with so many foods and flavourings. Nuts too: I love to candy walnuts by melting butter in a pan then adding walnut halves and half their weight in caster sugar and over a low heat tossing them around until the sugar has dissolved, turned amber and coated each nut, before tumbling them out on to alfoil to cool and harden. These in any roast pumpkin salad are fantastic. SautÊ in a little oil a handful of black grapes a la Bill Granger, splash in some balsamic vinegar and sugar and when they start to blister remove and pour over the pumpkin. Perfume the pumpkin with spices – cinnamon, nutmeg, cumin, mustard – enrich with the sweetness of brown sugar or honey or maple syrup – add ginger or basil or sage‌ Endless and exquisite possibilities for a food once considered fit only for pigs!

TWEED HEADS

Muoi’s Feast

For several moments I was looking at a rockmelon. There, on my kitchen counter, a plastic wrapped wedge of golden, seedy, summery rock melon, which I had not the faintest recollection of purchasing. And why would I, with autumn so emphatically arrived – the darker evenings, the crisper air, my doona reinstated? And then I realised that what it was was a pumpkin, a plastic wrapped wedge of golden, seedy, autumnal pumpkin, which of course I recalled purchasing in order to turn into one of the innumerable comfortingly snug dishes I begin these days to crave. But I was curious about my mistake, so out came my trusty The Complete Food Guide (yes of course I later used the internet), which told me that ‘the melon belongs to the same family as the cucumber and the squash’, going on to suggest that ‘its cavity filled with port wine, it is a delicious appetiser’ (the book is not young). Turning to the heading marked Squashes and Gourds I read that squashes, of which pumpkins are large versions, ‘are the fruit of an annual garden plant belonging to the same family as the melon and cucumber’. There we were then. And after being further entranced by alternative names for rockmelon, such as cantaloupe and musk melon – musk melon being quite perfect for the sweetly musky flavour of its flesh – I was able to revert to the pleasurable dilemma of what to do with the pumpkin wedge. Lately I have taken to roasting the unpeeled slices and gently folding them through other ingredients, generally other vegetables, for striking platters.

Byron triumphant on return Warren Fisher

Byron Bay rugby has made a triumphant return to first grade, defeating competition heavyweights Ballina 20–10 at the Recreation Fields on Saturday. Byron has a win and a draw from two outings this year. The Bay has been absent from the top flight for almost a decade and with their squad depleted by injury and last minute unavailability (Byron had a squad of only 16 players) even the heartiest supporters feared the worst. Byron settled quickly and dominated early play. In the forward exchanges, Tom Homer and Josh Smith were drive and passion personified while new forward Craig Wallace provided the technical leadership. Byron missed an early penalty and after making two errors in possession the Bay was down 5–0 at the quarter hour. Ballina tightened their grip on the match and looked set to overwhelm their less experienced opponents. Cue the Bay’s remarkable courage and desire. Harry Nuttall, having moved from his preferred backrow to the centres, was a juggernaut in the

midfield. Ballina were forced into error and finally the pressure turned to points from the most unlikely of sources. Second rower Ryan Bretts, playing his first game since schoolboy rugby, burst through the Ballina defence like a World Cup vet. The tide turned again when Ballina led 10–7 but Nuttall broke the visitors’ hearts with a superb solo try midway through the second half. Ace goal kicker and hero of last season’s Grand Final, Nathan Nicholls, was on song with a second conversion. When Nichols added two penalties, the last from inside his own half, the 500 strong crowd went into raptures. In a stellar team performance, captain Pete Shaw lead by example, Jamie Blair was powerful at the back of the scrum and Tom ‘Manchester’ Renshaw was the heart and soul of the tight five. No 10 Jass Saek was faultless in defence and halfback Jack Dickson, the man for the big occasion, was the best player on the field. Byron Bay returns to the Recreation Fields this Saturday against arch nemesis Bangalow. Admission is free. Kick off is 3.30pm. An epic contest is assured.

Story & photo John Campbell

The only way was up for the Mullumbimby Giants after last year and new coach Scott Johnston already has them set firmly on that trajectory. They were beaten by reigning premiers Murwillumbah on Sunday, but it was only a late converted try that made the score a deceptively comfortable 26–16 for the visitors. Mullumbimby has for a long time been a reservoir of tough, talented youngsters – there are juniors from the Giants currently running around with Wests Tigers, Manly and South Sydney – and it is significant that members of the 2012 Under 18s championship side

should be emerging as contributors to the rebuilding of the Blue and Gold. But there is no substitute for experience, and it was the hardened Mustangs whose control, assurance and vital touches of class allowed them to prevail on a gorgeous autumn arvo at Les Donnelly Field. Mullum kicked off and conceded two penalties in the first two minutes. Had Ricky Stuart been sitting with the mob in the bleachers, his observations of the ref ’s performance might have drawn much more than a $10,000 fine from the authorities. But such parochialism, whether justified or not, can be detrimental if it engenders a sense of being hard done by

among the players. Sporting contests are won as much in the head as on the pitch and, in a tussle such as this, where the Giants were chasing the game throughout, it doesn’t help to believe that you’re not getting a fair crack. Led by their wily half-back and busy hooker, Mur’bah skipped away to a 10–nil lead while the locals were lamenting the decisions of the whistleblower. When veteran Jake ‘Cobar’ Francisco bustled over at the twenty-minute mark there was a palpable sense that Giants had got down to business. That the Mustangs were being forced out of their comfort zone was evident when their winger was unceremoniously

flung into touch only a metre from the line – he didn’t like it one bit. Shortly after, when Robbie ‘Crazy’ Goodacre came from the clouds to make a glorious Johnny Raper covering tackle on a runaway Mustang, there was a strong whiff of upset in the air. Jack Govett, one of Mullum’s young Turks, stormed over next to the posts and at 10–all the Giants were in it up to their necks. Following Jake Woods’s pole-axing of the visitors’ number-ten, we all went to half-time with a warm inner glow. The second forty was a reflection of the first. Mur’bah worked a lovely move through the centre of the ruck to go ahead 16–10 and soon after the Giants’ Cook brothers and a Mustangs prop were binned for their involvement in a barney that had been brewing for some time. A converted try to Mur’bah’s number-eleven looked to be the clincher, but the Giants’ never-say-die commitment saw Tim Abbott fly in under the posts to bring it back to 20–16, with the crowd going right off. Heroic victory was not to be, however. Losing the ball immediately from the re-start, Mullum were unable to prevent the premiers from sealing the deal. Quality will out in the end, but the Giants are getting there.

Premiers rattled by Giants growing in stature

NETDAILY

The Byron Coopers Magpies secured a one point win in the dying minutes against Ballina Bombers on Friday night with a goal from Matty K from the sideline. Much of the ground was a quagmire and Byron were described by coach DG as ‘rusty’, but the team rallied to open their season with a narrow win after being three goals down at three quarter time. Solid efforts all over the ground were led by the club co-captains and a host of new and old faces.

A few silly mistakes and some untimely injuries kept Ballina in the game all night. However, it was Byron that sang the song at close of business. Deserved Beach Hotel Award Winners were Kane Bullock, Liam Afflick, Joe Ryan and Dave Smith. Dane Davidson also unselfishly stepped in to help a Bomber player acceptting an award from the Ballina Bombers in the form of a rum skoll after the match and won the Dick Hearne clubman award for his performance. Final Scores 9.10.64 to 9.11.65.

SOUTH GRAFTON

AUCTION

44 SCHWINGHAMMER STREET

Mayoral Victorian Residence – circa 1898 JT McKittrick was the first mayor of the municipality known as South Grafton. He was a successful businessman and pioneer in the trades of wharfing, carrying, bulk stores and retailing and eventually ran stores in Coffs Harbour, Coramba and Bucca Creek. The fruits of his labours saw the construction of his stately family home completed in approximately 1890. You can feel the ambience of businessmen sitting under the 5m ceilings in the parlour, warming themselves by the fire and projecting the growth of the Clarence Valley into the town it is today. Children were definitely seen and not heard here with a choice of 10 bedrooms and even today a block size of 1514m² is still available. Mr McKittrick did not exclude any additions with tessellated tiling, filigree additions throughout, massive feature casement windows, 300mm skirting, feature architraving and detailing, cedar staircase, staff staircase, choice of fireplaces and 5-inch flooring. The home now fronts the Pacific Highway in a 50km zone, and is situated on an elevated site overlooking rural surrounds. The zoning is flexible here and we are musing the idea of a B&B or guesthouse, Boutique Hotel, Function Centre or the like. The property needs to be inspected to be appreciated; you will foresee the potential of your hardwork. Auction: Saturday 18th May 2013 9.30am on site. Sales Agents: Rod Ford 0407 499 337 & Robyn Hunt 0429 422 722

Backlash Tracker magazine is the latest publication of the NSW Aboriginal Land Council. The council says its purpose is to ‘shine a light on local, state, national and international issues of importance to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples’. It’s already come up with a great headline: ‘Drunk, naked West Australian uni students hit the streets to sell racist hate-speech’. Find out the truth behind it at http://tracker.org.au.

Otherwise the doc thinks our drudge’s skin is ‘very good’ for a person of his advanced years. The drudge puts it down to the eldritch pallor achieved by staring at a computer screen. This preamble serves to introduce a reminder, to young and old alike, but especially Baby Boomers, to get your skin checked regularly.

One of our drudges recently found a suspect eruption on his wrist so took himself off to the skin doctor. Turns out it wasn’t a rogue mole but a ‘seborrhoeic keratosis’. This is not a Greek taverna singer; it is a species of dermal dross which comes to citizens eligible for the Seniors Card. They are known variously as ‘greasy warts’ and ‘age barnacles’. According to the learned doctor, the Balinese call them ‘fly shit’ and the happy-go-lucky folk of the Ukraine know them

David Gonski, receiving much credit for his education review, parts of which the federal government intends to put into practice, is also the non-executive chairman of Coca-Cola Amatil. This has put him in the sights of environmentalists, including the Brisbane group Generation Alpha, which has made a poster of Gonski promoting the 3Rs as rubbishing schools, streets and creeks. Find out more at www.facebook. com/GenerationAlpha.

Skeptical Science www.skepticalscience.com now has an app for both Apple and Android setting out the answers to all those climate sceptic claims. Does Byron Shire have more than its fair share of climate sceptics? It depends on which survey you go with – whether a ‘majority’ of Australians dispute global warming, as the Institute of Public Affairs believes, or about eight per cent, according to research by Prof Joseph Reser for the National Climate Change Adaptation Research Facility. In either case, there’s an interesting article on the subject at http://bit.ly/10CLDPl.

Is this the end of the longrunning Roundhouse saga, with councillors voting last Thursday to develop the Ocean Shores site? Or will money again raise its greasy little head when the subdivision becomes hard to sell or the property market drops? Stay tuned for the next instalment of the kerfuffle which has run longer than Dynasty (but not The Bold And The Beautiful).
