Freedom Camping Bylaw not this summer

Media Release

Release date: 3 October 2014

Freedom Camping Bylaw not this summer

The draft Freedom Camping Bylaw will not come into effect until after the end of the summer camping in 2015.

The season that began on Sunday with the start of daylight savings will continue just as it has in previous years.

The Hearings Committee heard submissions on the draft Freedom Camping Bylaw at a meeting on September 10.

A petition from Rere residents and a total of 16 submissions were received, with seven presented verbally to the Committee.

The issues raised in the overall submissions were sites, fees and permits, restrictions, number of nights and permission for use of prohibited sites.

As a result of submissions, the recommendation was that the Bylaw will not come into effect until after a larger review is completed on how Freedom Camping will be funded. Says chief executive, Judy Campbell.

Council will begin the review during October to consider whether permits will be user-pays, as they are now, or funded by rates, in time to make a decision by the end of summer camping.

Chris Rock Jokes About Boston Marathon Bombing, Freedom Tower in Saturday Night Live Opening Monologue, Offends …

Posted on by

Too soon or comedically edgy? Chris Rock raised some eyebrows on the Nov. 1 episode of Saturday Night Live with his daring stand-up comedy routine during the show's opening monologue. In his 8-minute bit, the seasoned comedian, 49, touched on the Boston Marathon bombings of 2013, September 11th, the Freedom Tower, and gun laws.

"That Boston Marathon was scary, because I love Boston," SNL alum Rock began. "I love the people there, but that was probably the most frightening, sadistic terrorist attack ever. Just think about it26 miles! People jogging for 26 miles, their knees are hurting, their feet are killing them, if you're a woman, there's blood coming out your titties. You've been training for a year, you finally get to the finish line, and somebody yells, 'RUN!'"

The Top Five actor then began discussing the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 in New York. After saying his home city was able to bounce back, Rock began joking about the newly finished Freedom Tower, which stands next to the former location of the Twin Towers.

"They should change the name from the Freedom Tower to the 'Never Going in There Tower,' 'cause I'm never going in there," he quipped. "Who's the corporate sponsor, Target? They put another skyscraper in the same spot? I am never going in the Freedom Tower. I got robbed on 48th and 8th a few years ago, I have not been back to 48th and 8th."

Chris Rock offended several viewers with his controversial opening monologue on the Nov. 1 episode of Saturday Night Live.

Anticipating some of the negative backlash, Rock noted, "Hey, hey I'm not joking about 9/11, but we live in America and in America there are no sacred days because we commercialize everything."

Before he even finished speaking, Rock's name became a trending topic on Twitter with fans ranging from all ends of the spectrum speaking out.

Anti-terror laws undermine democracy

Posted on by

Illustration: michaelmucci.com

October 2014 will go down as the month in which the federal Parliament made some of its greatest ever inroads into freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Ironically, this occurred only weeks after our politicians extolled the virtues of these freedoms in the debate over section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act.

It is disturbing that our political leaders have moved so quickly from this to anti-terror measures that impose lengthy jail terms for journalists and others who speak about matters of public importance. It reveals a shallow adherence to freedom of speech, and an unwelcome, authoritarian streakon behalf of the government and the opposition when it comes to restricting democratic freedoms.

Most of the attention has focused on section 35P of the first anti-terrorism bill passed on October 1. This provision says: "A person commits an offence if the person discloses information and the information relates to a special intelligence operation." The penalty is jail of up to five years, or 10 years if, for example, the disclosure prejudices a special intelligence operation.

As Attorney General George Brandis has said, section 35P "applies generally to all citizens". It does not discriminate between people who seek to harm our security by revealing secret information, and journalists and whistleblowers who shine a spotlight on government wrongdoing, incompetence or even the death of an Australian citizen at the hands of an intelligence officer.

It is not easy for journalists to know whether they are complying with this law. Special intelligence operations are by their nature covert, and the information that cannot be disclosed covers these operations and anything that "relates to" them. This means that the ban extends to other, connected operations by ASIO and agencies such as the Australian Federal Police.

All this can create doubt in the mind of a journalist about whether they can publish a story. They may decide not to do so on the basis that it is better to be safe than sorry. Governments and agencies can exploit this zone of uncertainty by warning off journalists so as to prevent the publication of compromising information.

Brandis has defended section 35P by saying that it is not intended to apply to journalists. If this is the case, it is easy to fix the provision. He should sponsor an amendment that exempts the disclosure of information that is part of a media report in the public interest.

Instead, the Attorney General will direct federal prosecutors to consult with him on any charges laid against journalists. He has said that prosecutions against journalists will only proceed with his consent.

Freedom High football team blanks Liberty in Bethlehem battle

Posted on by

Jason Roeder sent Jake Young a text early this week.

The message conveyed from coach to player was simple expect to see the ball a lot against Liberty.

Freedom called Young's number on its first play from scrimmage Saturday. The senior all-purpose threat turned a pass from Jonah Gundrum into a 39-yard gain.

Whether making a touchdown-saving tackle, punting or snagging passes, Young continued hurting the Hurricanes all afternoon. He finished with 236 yards from scrimmage and caught two touchdown passes to lead Freedom to a 29-0 thumping of rival Liberty at Bethlehem Area School District Stadium.

By winning its final EPC South Division game, Freedom (8-2 overall, 6-2 South) secured a home game for the Districts 2-11 Class 4A subregional playoffs. The fourth-seeded Patriots will host No. 5 Whitehall (8-2, 6-2) in a Friday night quarterfinal. It's a rematch of a Week 7 game they won 29-28 in overtime.

For a fifth straight season, Liberty (5-5, 4-4) won't be part of the subregional field. The Hurricanes needed to beat Freedom to nab the final subregional playoff spot. That berth instead went to Pleasant Valley.

Young played a central role in sending Liberty to the Eastern Conference 4A playoffs rather than districts. He caught nine passes for 196 yards and ran three times for 40 yards.

His final catch buried Liberty.

The Patriots already held a 22-0 lead when they called for a reverse pass late in the third quarter. After running back Joe Santos avoided a big loss by flipping the ball to wide receiver Kylon Pretty, Pretty grabbed the ball and fired to an uncovered Young on the right side of the field.

Young snagged the ball and cut back toward his left, racing into the end zone for the final touchdown of the day.

Marines receive Freedom of Glasgow

Posted on by

About 100 commandos were joined by veterans, cadets and a military band on the parade from Holland Street to George Square today before Commandant General, Major General Martin Smith, was awarded the city's highest honour by Lord Provost Sadie Docherty.

The freedom ceremony was the idea of councillor Malcolm Cunning, who wanted the council to recognise the history and dedication of the entire Royal Marine Corps.

It is awarded to "persons of distinction or persons who have rendered eminent service to the city".

Comedian Billy Connolly was the last person to receive the honour from Glasgow in 2010.

Major General Smith said: "The Royal Marines are humbled to have the Freedom of the City of Glasgow conferred.

"It is with particular pride that the commandos will parade through the streets of Glasgow on this occasion, marking this historic milestone in the long history of the Corps and its relationship with the city.

"I am honoured to be able to present my officers and marines to the Lord Provost during this, our 350th year, and we couldn't be more proud to exercise this honour in Glasgow, a maritime city with which we have such a strong bond."

Following the freedom of the city ceremony, the Lord Provost and Commandant General took a salute as the Royal Marines marched past.

Royal Marines Reserve Scotland was originally formed as City of Glasgow Centre Royal Marines Force Volunteer Reserve in 1948.

Pittsburg's defense stifles Freedom

Posted on by

PITTSBURG -- Pittsburg High's football team kicked its defensive intensity up a notch in the second half to beat Freedom 24-13 Friday night and clinch at least a share of another Bay Valley Athletic League title.

Isaiah Lopez and Michael Chatman both had fumble recoveries, and the Pirates held the Falcons to just 50 yards of offense after halftime. Both fumble recoveries came after sacks and helped Pittsburg (7-2, 4-0 BVAL) score the final 17 points of the game.

The Pirates are BVAL champions for the second straight season and the fourth time in five years. Friday's victory came despite committing 10 penalties and turning the ball over twice.

"They're tight and they play for each other, but they're very emotional," Pittsburg coach Victor Galli said of his team. "They play on emotions. Sometimes that's a good thing, sometimes that's a bad thing. They have a lot of passion, but sometimes we have to be smarter."

Jaylyn Morgan and Nick Moore combined for 246 rushing yards and scored a touchdown each. Morgan's score, a 2-yard run, capped a 15-play drive to open the second half that gave the Pirates their first lead of the game 14-13. .

Lopez's big moment came on Freedom's next drive. He forced a fumble while sacking Freedom quarterback Joe Sweeney, then recovered and returned the ball for a 33-yard touchdown.

Chatman's fumble recovery came after teammate Charlie Ramirez's sack and helped the Pirates run out the clock at the end.

Pittsburg trailed 13-7 at halftime after turning the ball over twice. Freedom (6-3, 3-1) made the Pirates pay for both, scoring on touchdown passes from Sweeney to Gio Fauolo and Scotty Sanders.

But the Falcons offense couldn't get going in the second half, and the Pirates held a BVAL opponent to under 200 yards of offense for a fourth straight game.

The Pirates can make it an outright league championship with a win over Antioch next week in the Big Little Game. If Pittsburg falters in its final regular season game, Freedom can claim a share of the league title with a win over Liberty in next week's Bell Game.
