ADVERTISEMENT Solar Government Rebates deliver savings

THE Australian Government are still providing generous solar rebates that could potentially save you thousands of dollars off your purchase price. If you’ve been tossing up whether solar is the right choice for you, then here are a few key reasons why you should make the switch and start saving before the solar subsidies are dropped for good. The solar subsidy – for how long? The scheme delivers upfront savings on the cost of your solar system, meaning you’re not out of pocket, nor do you have to worry about dealing with claim processes post installation. The current small-scale technology certificate (STC) calculation will decrease on December 31st this year and continue to do so each year until it is phased out in 2030. Right now, the STC calculation on a 6.6 kW system delivers an upfront saving just shy of $4,000.00. Fast forward to January 1, and this will have decreased to around $3,600.00. that’s a saving of $400 back in your pocket if you act now. 5.5kW Solar Bundle From How much is your electricity bill right now?

AN OPEN LETTER TO SUPPORTERS OF THE BRUNS ECO VILLAGE 86 JONSON ST, BYRON BAY AND THE FAMOUS The residents of Saddle Road who have vehemently opposed the recent Saddle Road Planning 6685 7662 Proposal would like the supporters of BEV to know that we have never opposed the underlying RAILS kitchen principals of BEV. While we have had issues with the standard of consultation and engagement therailsbyronbay.com that BEV has undertaken, what we have been consistent about are our concerns for what the future development of Saddle Road should look like. The morning after the Council decision on the 23rd of August we wrote to BEV, councillors and the Council executive proposing a road-map for how BEV could get back on track and how it Thursday 13 sept could be moved forwards in the quickest possible time. The same day the mayor responded DAN HANNAFORD to BEV, councillors, staff and ourselves and agreed it was important to clear the air and try to move the BEV project forward. Just twelve days after the Council decision the residents of Friday 14 sept Saddle Road provided BEV and Council Planning staff a concise and detailed list of concerns and THOR PHILLIPS BAND recommendations for the BEV proposal and how they can be addressed. We are acting in good faith and in a spirit of cooperation and ﬁ rmly believe that if BEV can Saturday 15 sept address the issues raised in our submission and accept our recommendations then BEV may be RAGGA JUMP able to proceed at a fast pace with full community and residents’ endorsement. Isn’t it better for BEV to be founded on cooperation and bipartisan support rather than division and hostility? Sunday 16 sept We regret that BEV was unable to work cooperatively with us from the start of this process and ROMANIACS instead decided to embark on the doomed collaboration with what was a completely inappropriate Planning Proposal that had nothing to do with ecology and community and everything to do with Monday 17 sept economics and commerce. PAT TIERNEY We all have so much in common with one another so let’s bring ourselves together rather than Tuesday 18 sept continue to be divided.

Goals like paying the mortgage. You might think I’m being harsh on Australia’s most beloved cartoonist, but I am still not over Leunig’s take on childcare from 2014. It depicts a baby’s inner narrative when it’s left in a childcare centre: ‘I can’t believe it! My own mother – who I want to be with more than anything in the world, my mother – font of all goodness and warmth dumps me here in this horrendous creche! I can’t believe it!’ It continues with stream-of-consciousness rants of the baby hating itself and then a promise ‘one things for sure, I’m going to get myself back for this one day. I’ll punish myself. And serves me right too.’ Awesome. Apparently we’ve authored our own beloved child’s inner narrative of self-hatred. It’s our fault. It’s our fault for being educated and putting our kids in childcare. Best our babies weren’t born. It’s powerful mother shaming from a culture that loves mother blaming. Any mother who has had to put her baby in childcare knows the pain of walking away from her crying child. I’ve sat in the car and cried, then snuck back in to see my distressed child happy and laughing. Why do women have to wear this? If courts now award separated dads 50/50 in care, then why can’t they take 50 per cent of the guilt as well? Why is the burden of good parenting always on the shoulders of a woman? And why is our beloved King of Whimsy being so cruel? Please, Michael Leunig, go back to ducks pondering the night sky. Every year I look forward to my free Leunig calendar, but this year it’s going into the bin. TICKETS $35 AVAILABLE AT THE CLUB OR BOOK NOW @ WWW.CLUBMULLUM.COM

BRUNSWICK SCULPTURE WALK BUILDING A CHARACTER SEPT 28TH – 2ND OCT 2018 IN FICTION THE The most effective characters in fiction are always flawed, multi-layered, and remind us of people we know. But how do you avoid clichés and one-dimensional fictional figures to create fully-fledged characters that readers can relate to? In this practical workshop, Sarah will guide you through a series of exercises to help you create a fully dimensional fictional character. Story arises from character so the better you know your character the stronger your story will be. Bring an existing character you have written, or come ready to create a new one. Sarah Armstrong has written three novels. Before moving to Byron Bay to write, she was a journalist at the ABC, where she won a Walkley Award.
