In a bold venture to boost soil health, 15 farmers will be selected to receive 20 tonnes each of the precious stuff.

Cr Katie Milne is the second local Greens councillor to have to FEATURED IN defend an action by major developer Bob Ell. Former councillor Henry James was subject to a threat of legal action years ago, while a local Labor stalwart was intimidated by another major Tweed developer, since deceased, and neither of those cases got to be examined in a court of law. In Tasmania, Bob Brown and other members of the Greens were tied up for quite some time defending expensive defamation suits for their campaign against the controversial Gunns woodchip and paper mill. The cases were eventually dropped. Mr Ell is entitled to protect his reputation and we must wait for the court to decide if it has suffered at Cr Milne’s hands.

8 January 27, 2011 The Tweed Shire Echo www.tweedecho.com.au Coping with the humid climate Homes and gardens nationwide have been hammered by the elements this season – and the NSW Far North Coast has not been exempt. One of the greatest problems of excessively wet conditions is mould and mildew. A natural condition of a humid climate, both are actually an integral part of the food cycle helping to decompose organic matter and re-nourish the soil. On the other hand within a residential space they can both constitute a serious health hazard. Mould is more commonly found in areas where some form of organic matter is present – kitchen sinks for example – whereas mildew finds its way into inorganic materials like moist walls, cracks and fabrics. Both spread allergies and can lead to respiratory disorders, and both are generally accompanied by a musty odour. So, what to do? Firstly identify the possible areas. Mould growth should always be suspected wherever there are water stains, standing water or moist surfaces. If the situation looks too severe then the only recourse is to call in a professional. However, if it appears manageable then the ‘greenest’ DIY treatment is to use a mixture of vinegar and water, wash affected area with a scrub brush and a clean cloth and then dry completely. For fabrics and clothing, brush off as much as possible, soak in a mixture of salt and lemon then wash as normal before drying in the sun.

1. Michael Keaton has great fun in the title role of Beetlejuice (GO!, Friday, 9.30pm), an hilarious early offering from director Tim Burton, on par with Corpse Bride. 2. Is the little boy imagining it all, or is there something strange going on in The Orphanage (SBS1, Saturday, 10.05pm)? Highly rated horror from Spain, even more deadly than Rafael Nadal. 3. Howard Schultz, who ‘revolutionised’ Starbucks, is one of the players in this week’s Iconoclasts (ABC1, Sunday, 10.05pm), a series which profiles a range of 1 2 3 talented people from musos to entrepreneurs.

The club started in 2009 with two 13/14yrs teams, Komets and Stars. Stars went on to be the Minor Premiers for the sea- son, going on to win the Grand Final. The club progressed to four teams in 2010, adding two open sides, Twinkles and Ava- tars. This year saw Stars fin- ishing Minor Premiers again but losing the Grand Final by three goals. The club finished with a total of 47 members ranging in ages from 12 to 40+. In 2011 we expect to have a minimum of 60 members adding a 16yrs and a 12/13yrs team.

Seems our mayor Kevin Skin- ner just can’t help his Freudian slips of the tongue as he goes in half-cocked to comment on vital issues of concern to locals. Recently the self-appointed dam expert said floods like those in Queensland could have been avoided by building more dams – a complete and utter nonsense – then more recently in a radio interview on the issue of the Hastings Point development controls, the pro-development-at-all- costs mayor said he did not represent residents, ‘I repre- sent landowners’. Funny, last time we checked on what democratic local government representation meant, we were Save Hastings Point member Jan-Maree Garvey used Åustralia Day celebrations to send a big sure elected councillors had to thanks (and a few photos of celebrating local kids like the one above) to the four councillors represent all residents, includ- who recently ensured that the beautiful little coastal village will remain a special place for years ing renters, landowners and to come.
