As the great bard once wrote, "All that glisters is not gold." (Merchant of Venice II.vii.69.)
In modern times, the concept still holds true. People often flock to those who seem most successful and powerful, those who flaunt some symbol of greatness. However taking people at face value in this manner can lead to any number of problematic misconceptions.
"Symbols of success are often just a mask. The playing field is always more level than it seems." (Jeff Haden, "8 Pieces of Professional Advice I Didn't Want But Definitely Needed," 04/16/2013)


text:
No sensible person would agree to be the Mystic Meg of employment law, predicting the future beyond the date of the general election, says Stephen Levinson. That I agreed to do this foolish thing might incline you to stop reading, but if not, with all the usual caveats, here goes.
Small Business Bill
The Small Business, Enterprise and Employment Bill has just been published. The Bill will change the law in relation to zero hours contracts and will tighten up the rules relating to the national minimum wage (NMW). There will be an increase in the level of fines for those who fail to pay the NMW and exclusivity clauses in zero hours contracts will become unenforceable . Other changes in the Bill include new rules allowing the "claw back" of redundancy pay from employees re-employed in the public sector. There are also further changes to the tribunal rules, including the introduction of financial penalties for employers that fail to pay tribunal awards.
Equal pay audits
We now also have eight pages of draft regulations on equal pay audits to absorb. The new regulations determine the exact nature of the audits, their specific requirements and the powers of the tribunal. Here the government are walking a tightrope as their aim to reduce red tape clearly conflicts with what will be an increased burden on some businesses. The wish to reduce the gender pay gap has prevailed. As part of the balancing act there is an exemption for micro-businesses (fewer than 10 employees). There will also be cash penalties for non-compliance. Tribunals are to sign-off audits and there will be an obligation to publish the results on websites for three years so that they are available to the whole workforce unless the tribunal gives leave not to do so for legal reasons.
The law surrounding whistleblowing is due for a refit and here changes are likely to be focused on extending the scope of workers who are protected, particularly in the health sector, and the role of regulators. The list of prescribed persons is likely to be expanded following the inclusion of all MPs to this status.
Consultations on trade unions, the City and discrimination
With regard to consultations in progress we have, of course, the Carr enquiry into trade union tactics. The TUC have decided this is simply a political stunt and have blackballed the enquiry ensuring that no one who is either a part of the trade union movement or any of their professional advisers will participate. Originally proposed in reaction to the problems at Grangemouth, its scope has been widened but it remains to be seen whether the head-in the-sand tactic of the TUC will succeed in making the consultation a pointless exercise.
Bankers are probably due for another bashing following the forthcoming Senior Persons Regime consultation which will impose revised rules for the regulation of City heavy-hitters. There is an ongoing discrimination review being carried out under the auspices of the EHRC which is investigating the scale of maternity and pregnancy related discrimination. The intention is to announce the initial results in spring 2015. In the meantime ACAS is working on non-statutory guidance on their Code of Practice on the right to request flexible working.
General election
Moving on to some political predictions, what will the outcome of a general election bode for the HR community? Formal policy announcements are not due until the summer so this is speculative even if based on actual pronouncements of party leaders. Let's begin with the Labour Party and assume that all of Chuka Umuna's criticisms of government action will translate into policy. If they do tribunal fees will be slashed or abolished, unfair dismissal compensation caps will rise and the qualification period for unfair dismissal will go back to one year or less. In addition the minimum wage will be related to increases to the cost of living and public sector contracts will not be issued to any company that blacklists union activists. Finally Labour were outraged by the abolition of the Agricultural Wages Board without debate so just possibly it may receive a kiss of life but that is only an outside possibility.
If there is a Conservative government be fearful for the future of 'tribunals' as there is a definite strand of thinking in favour of removing lay members entirely. This is part and parcel of the Ministry of Justice's long-term intention which (in my view) is to bring to an end to the separate jurisdiction of employment tribunals altogether. However, no admissions will ever be made to this effect for a long while. Tribunal fees will remain though they may not be increased in a hurry given the massive downturn in the number of applications. It is highly likely that a Conservative government would strive to change working time rules though this may involve intensive lobbying in Brussels. The Carr enquiry initiative reveals a wish to change the laws regulating strikes so expect a revival of the arguments over requiring higher levels of endorsement from members before a strike may be called.
Liberal Democrat policies on employment are opaque at present. Nick Clegg has announced that they will be new, bold and liberal but that is not exactly specific. As for UKIP most of their declared policies depend on withdrawal from Europe. They say they want to put an end to rules relating to weekly working hours, holiday overtime, redundancy and sick pay and replace it with a standard statutory employment contract template. Parental leave would be a matter for the sole judgement of employers. It sounds radical and not even half-baked to me but everyone will have their own views about this, as they will of my skill as a forecaster.
Now what did I do with that crystal ball?

Designing a residence replete with a spacious and open interior can be a tricky and often challenging task. However, thanks to the adept and experienced team at Mukoyama Architects, the house we are looking at today is a shining and successful example. Boasting a modest yet functional 105 square metre floorplan, the timber-framed three-storey dwelling is a versatile and skilfully constructed home. Situated in Kawasaki City, within the Kanagawa Prefecture of south-west Japan, this abode features an exterior that appears far smaller than its airy and open interior. Completed recently in April 2015, we are privileged today to take a tour within this truly intriguing and utterly unique home.
One of the most interesting features of this newly constructed residence is the shape of the awkward plot it sits upon. The architects and designers have managed to adapt the form and frame of the structure in order to utilise what might normally be deemed too difficult or troublesome. As an abode designed for a family, the house includes ample open plan living space, user-friendly elements, and an abundance of amenities.
To take a peek inside this ingenious, comfortable and contemporary dwelling, check out the images below and gain a few ideas to extend and enhance your home.
This image perfectly sums up the size and stature of the dwelling. The architects have taken a challenging project and succeeded in creating, not only a fabulously ingenious residence, but also a usable and highly functional home.
The structure sits right at the border of the plot, maximising any available space. Thinking outside the box, the house was designed to maximise light with ample windows, and large open interior spaces.
The first interior space we are taking a look at is the staircase. Acting as more than simply a way to ascend and descend levels, this space is a great example of how the home's design allows light to flow throughout the interior.
The staircase above has been designed to create a soft filtered illumination, providing warmth and natural light to enter the narrow and tight space.
As we move into the main living area the result is astounding! Light-filled and warm, this interior area boasts large glazed sliding doors that provide access to the exterior decked balcony. To the left we see the small cosy corner replete with bookshelves, while a comfy hanging hammock seat is the central focal point.
Timber flooring adds warmth, while bright white walls and ceiling bring a sense of cleanliness into the interior spaces.
Ensuring privacy for the home, windows have been carefully placed to ensure neighbouring homes are unable to seen within the property. Especially essential within this cosy nook, the window placement is crucial to the privacy of the living room.
This cute and comfortable gathering space is ideal for families to sit with children, play music, read books, or simply take a nap. Built within the wall space that separates the stairway from the small music area, this is a great use of space that adds to the overall interesting design and layout. Additionally, the first floor of the home also offers a brighter colour scheme. White walls are paired with feature hues such as the dusty blue stairwell, turquoise nook, and mustard piano space.
Downstairs, moving further into the main living area of the house we are able to see the kitchen, dining space, and stairway leading upstairs.
These interior spaces work beautifully in conjunction with one another, and create a comprehensive dwelling with integrated, open plan living areas. The room utilises the blue hue throughout, to evoke a sense of cool serenity, while effortlessly contributing to the rustic timber seen within the rooms. Natural light is provided in ample supply, injecting the interior with a sense of comfort and fresh tranquillity. With enough space for the whole family to dine and relax, this well-designed area seamlessly maximises its compact floorplan.
Taking a quick look within the stairway, we are able to see the way the stairs have been designed to create an airiness and space that allows natural light to penetrate the stairwell below. Utilising the dusty duck egg blue shade once more, the narrow space is given an essence of style peacefulness. Generally, with small spaces we tend to choose a white hue, but in this instance the blue is a nice diversion and works excellently with the natural timber tones.
Finally we move upstairs to check out the second floor, which hosts the bedrooms. One of the best design features of this dwelling is the way the architects have used negative space, or voids, to create a feeling of openness within the home. Here there is a narrow walkway that offers the occupant an area to see downstairs and into the living room. Similarly, on the first floor of the home, one can view the double height space through these large and open voids.

Do You Need a Lift?
Clients truly lift us up. A wonderful client recently said, "I don't know how you do what you do… but you have 'lifted my spirits'… both literally and figuratively!" He went on to say, "My anger and irritability has lifted and my wife says I am so much more fun to be around." Wow! That is the best compliment we could ever receive. We know that by lifting the negative, sad, or mad attitudes, energies, or spirits around someone, their own energy shifts to more positive thoughts and uplifted energies. Lifting their spirits changes their life, along with the lives of those around them. This is the powerful change-work that my team enjoys doing. Have you noticed that we have rebranded to Lois Hermann & Associates? There has been such a demand for "lifting spirits" that we now have an amazing team of Clearing Consultants to help clear negative energy and lift spirits.
In addition, we are so proud of our recent Certified Consulting Hypnotist graduates: Karen Gordon, Noel Berube, Denise McCalvey and Amy Martin. Dedicated and determined, they worked very hard over the winter to achieve their certification goal. Each of these gifted hypnotists has a unique background, with expertise that will be very beneficial to their clients. They look forward to helping people succeed with the power of the mind. Several of these graduates plan to explore more in-depth, advanced training. You just might meet them around the office.
Speaking of office space, we have shuffled offices in our Telegraph Building suite to accommodate advanced training opportunities. We are truly enjoying our new arrangements and hope that you enjoy them too.
If you would like to lift your spirits, here are some pointers:
- Call on positive energy, angels, and prayers to shift negative thoughts.
- Spend some time in nature to connect with the positive energy of all that is.
- Take a few minutes to meditate or pray every day. Set your intentions for the positive.
- Avoid electronic energy interference at times during the day… and especially at night.
- Make time for some self-care including exercise, healthy eating, and add time for play.
- Focus on the things you are most grateful for.
- Smile more, frown less.
Plan to join us for A Day of Grace on June 9th at Infinite Journeys in Hampstead, New Hampshire. You will learn how to keep your energy clear and strong, AND you'll have an opportunity to connect you with your Guides, Angels, and Loved Ones for their continued support.
Also, Lois is offering an NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) Training for those interested in learning the secrets to ultimate communication and develop the skills to connect with others in meaningful ways. The four-Saturday training program starts June 2nd.
Mark your calendars for July 20th. Join our team at the Waumbec Mills for An Evening with Spirit. We will present how we do what we do and demonstrate our unique style of communication with the lost mill spirits as we lift them home to rest.
Hypnotists interested in an Advanced Training Program, check out our website for a two-day post NGH intensive – August 13th & 14th in Nashua, NH.
If you would like some assistance with lifting your spirits, please give us a call at 884-777-7812 or schedule a session at www.LoisHermann.com/contact
We are honored to offer this service for you.
Blessings of Hope,
Lois Hermann & Associates, LLC

Some of our Graduates said:
We learned so much more than hypnosis in the training. We learned about how it feels to have a tribe and what special gifts we all have. Thank you Lois…
It was FUN and informative. Loved the journey, loved learning how hypnosis has helped people.
Loved Lois's level of knowledge and her insight into hypnosis.
Carol said…
I came to hypnosis because I had become aware that I was not alone in my body. There were other souls with me, and I wanted to reclaim my body, my life, and help the other spirits move on. With the sessions, I have been able to reclaim my body, and even learned how to help the other souls to transition. It was a safe environment to let whatever needed to come up, come up. I feel like I learned a lot about myself, and how to protect my own space. Thank you, Lois.

I'm currently reading Robert Service's bio of Stalin. It's good so far, but it has one annoying aspect to it that almost every other history book or biography shares, and that is that it just doesn't remind you enough of what the year in question is.
What I mean is that there will be plenty of lines like '"In March this issue became urgent, and X started to do Y as a result". But what year is it? It's never that clear what the year is. Is it 1931 or 1932, or have we jumped ahead to 1933 here? You go back over the pages you've recently read, but there's no mention of a year for ages. Eventually you find one by going back further, and then you have to do some deducing to work out what the year is on your current page. It's like the writer knows what year it is, they're keeping track of it in their head, so they assume you know too, but you don't, you're not as expert on all this as the writer.
With some topics this may not matter so much but with political history it does. And you want to get the timeline right in your head, so you want to know whether it was 1923 that X happened, or 1924, not least so you can fit this in with related developments which you knew happened in 1923 and 1924.
It's like cricket commentating on the radio. It's really important that cricket commentators keep telling the listeners the score. That's one of their most important jobs. But so many of them fail to. You turn on the radio to hear the score, and you have to listen to them waffling on about all sorts of rubbish, and eventually you might hear them say that Jenkins has turned one off his hip for a single, as though they're slightly annoyed that Jenkins has interrupted their story, like a parent who barely stops the story they're telling to their friends when they tell their child to stop doing something. If you're very lucky they might tell you that Jenkins has moved on to 32 after the tuck, but you won't get the team score. Eventually after ten minutes, if you're lucky, they'll deign to mention it.
This always drives me nuts. The only British radio commentator who regularly gives the score is Jonathan Agnew (although in all other respects he's an extremely annoying commentator). History writers should not be making the same sort of mistake. Never just say 'July'. It should always be July and the year, unless the year has already been given on that page.
There are also some other strange aspects to what otherwise seems a very good book. Stalin has to give up this job he has at the Tiflis (ie. Tbilisi) observatory and leave where he's living because the authorities are persecuting the Marxists. The next few years he throws himself into being a dedicated revolutionary. But there's nothing at all about how he gets any money to live on. And nothing at all about where he lives when he moves to different towns. He also escapes a prison, but there's nothing at all about how this happened. Many people — colleagues, editors — read drafts of the book. Did none of them not think to raise these points? Were they already so familiar with the facts about Stalin's life that they didn't notice that Service hadn't addressed some of them?
There also seem to be many episodes of Stalin's life that are missing that I know from other sources. I don't know whether Service thought the evidence for these was lacking, or whether he just couldn't fit everything in.

Medical marijuana sellers are "thrilled" Governor signed SB 336
The Illinois Department of Public Health requires the agency to adopt rules by December 1. Once the system is running, people who have been certified by a doctor and have proof they've paid the state's registration fee can visit a dispensary to obtain medical marijuana while the state reviews the application. Marijuana dispensaries can assist people in filling out the forms, the Chicago Tribune reported.
"The main concern for the state is, How do we track patient usage? How do we make sure patients aren't using more than one dispensary on the same day?," he said. "How do we track all these new people in the system and (verify them) if the state is not the sole access point? Right now, you wait for state approval and you are in." Read more

Call deadline extended: Apply untill the 18th of february!
deutsche Fassung der Ausschreibung
Organise yourselves! Working (together) in the arts
12th – 18th March 2018 // Ringlokschuppen Ruhr Mülheim
From 12th to 18th March 2018 Ringlokschuppen Ruhr Mülheim hosts the fifth Cheers for Fears Festival for students of the arts and art theories in NRW. The Festival offers you an intensive time of exchange about artistic practices and aesthetics, self-conception and goals. You'll get to know diverse artistic positions and will have the possibility to discuss your own work. Real beginners are just as welcome as advanced students or recent graduates.
Apply until 18th February 2018 with an artistic work, work-in-progress or simply for participating. Contribute video installations, theatre, performances or music, dance or scenic lectures – or surprise us with forms for which no name has been found yet.
The works will be presented between 15th and 17th March 2018 in transdisciplinary showings and installations. To discuss a work-in-progress with the other participants, you apply for the afternoon Labs. They are followed up by the public showings of fnalized artistic works. The intermediate results of the current CHEERS FOR FEARS-production platform Transit will also be presented at CHEERS FOR FEARS-Festival. This is preceded by three-day workshops on forms of artistic work with established artists, researchers and makers of the art scene.
The basic question of how we organize our artistic work accompanies us as a guide through the festival week. What different forms of production are connected to certain artistic and scientifc practices? How does the method determines an artistic statement? On the threshold of professionalization in the current art scene, how do we work together to create ensembles and collectives? To what extent do we accept hierarchies as useful? And what conditions favour transdisciplinary collaborations and hybrid art forms?
Some details concerning your application:
- Apply with the attached application form until 18th February 2018, with or without an artistic work. Transfer the form via mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
- Participation requirements: You are studying in the art feld in NRW or completed your studies not long ago. You participate in the entire festival and are keen to discuss your artistic work and those of the other participants.
- Due to a limited capacity of the festival and its audience and increasing numbers of application, we will have to reject more applications than in the previous years. Decisive for this are the letter of motivation (see below) and the feasibility of the artistic work. Please give us an insight into your work by sending us links with pictures/videos.
- We want to give many people the possibility to participate in the festival, while our resources are limited. So a contribution of 30€ per person for food, accommodation and workshops will be charged.

Children should attend school for the full school year (190 days). Late arrivals, unexplained or frequent absence mean that your child may miss essential aspects of his or her education. If your child is absent and we have not heard from you by 9.30am, we will call you.
Absences are not authorised by the Headteacher unless they meet specific criteria and these are for exceptional circumstances only.
If you plan to take your child out of school you must complete a 'leave of absence' form in advance and meet with the Headteacher to discuss the absence. Absences are only authorised in exceptional circumstances, but each case is dealt with individually. As part of the Avocet Academy, the school does not refer unauthorised absences due to holidays for Penalty Notices.
We will ask for your permission when your child needs to leave the school premises as part of their classwork. Local walks are covered by one standard form, and permission is sought separately for any school visit involving coach/car travel. No child is allowed to leave the premises without being accompanied by a member of school staff.
If your child has diarrhoea or vomiting, we ask that they remain at home until he or she has been clear of this condition for 48 hours, to avoid the spread of illness to others. For other conditions, we follow current medical advice and this is available from our office staff.
If your child is ill and unable to come into school, please ring or email the school and inform the office staff before 9.30am on the first morning of absence, and on subsequent days until your child is able to return to school.

By using quotes
for women to provide inspirational stories to our readers, we establish a higher
level of humanity. Our goal is to uplift womanhood to it's rightful
place in our own minds...one woman at a time. And soon, the whole world
will reap the rewards of our self-empowerment!
"Once upon a time there was a young lady searching for motivational quotes for women while working at a job she despised. She chose the path of working for someone else over her dream because she thought it was sensible and secure. She was taught to play it safe and follow the crowd.
Once upon a time this woman realized she was desperately unhappy and "misery" was her middle name. Dark thoughts came upon her and the light of hope was no longer in her sight.
Once upon a time this woman read a certain book, and it changed her life. She pursued her childhood dream. She quit the job she hated and began to earn money from her passion.
Once upon a time this woman listened to the little child-like voice inside herself that whispered, "You Are Enough."
Once upon a time this woman smiled every day and she lived happily ever after."
The End
The above story was written while the writer was searching for motivational quotes for women to lead her on a new path. The writer's life was on a downhill spiral and she was desperately searching for inspirational words to enlighten her and become her metaphorical "knight in shinning armor" riding on the mythical white horse.
We are not waiting for someone else to tell us the meaning of our lives. We must indeed establish, define, and announce what we say our purpose is and what our dreams are.
"Give Me Liberty or Give Me Death," a motivational quote spoken by Patrick Henry in a speech he gave in 1775.
What are most of us saying now in these more modern times? I think it goes something like this, "Give me a steady paycheck with benefits and I will forget about my dream and bury it in the massive graveyard of lost dreams."
What is the price of freedom to you? For me, it is everything I yearn for. It is the freedom to choose the way I earn a living. It is not being forced to work for those who control the mega-corporations and in turn help them in making more money.
I would rather work for myself in a field of my choosing and struggle, if need be, for a while, than have the "security" of a steady paycheck. The paycheck means nothing if I am not Free.
Patrick Henry was not speaking of his job at the time but of his freedom to live the way he wanted...free from the control of another. We can all relate! How much would you "pay" for freedom? It is a question we all must think about."
Share some Facebook Love...give us a thumbs up!
A Must Share Success Story...wow!
What a great goal to have!

Perfect Strangers
Perfect Strangers (Italian: Perfetti sconosciuti) is a 2016 Italian comedy-drama film directed by Paolo Genovese.
Seven long-time friends (three married couples and a divorcee) are having a dinner.They meet at one of the friend's home on the day of a lunar eclipse.
They decide, as a playful game, to put each one's mobile phone on the table and reveal every text message or phone call they would receive that evening, to prove that nobody has anything to hide.
Hilarity and drama ensue together as everyone's secrets are unveiled and the seven friends find themselves perfect strangers to each other.
Having stumbled upon this one by accident, I decided to give it a try
The plot which is confined to a singular apartment however, spills over beautifully while in motion
So, let's figure out what works?
- Paolo Genovese has created a Gem of a movie from a well knit screenplay
- The characters of his screen play are relatable and flawed right from the word GO
- Their day to day lives are woven in as a matter of fact easing their way to Dinner Table Conversations
- The reason why you remain hooked to the proceedings on screen is because of the Hook
- Firstly, Genovese creates a setup to a concept
- He then infuses a hook to the What If relevant to this story
- This HOOK, and I am not kidding, is what keeps you glued
- It feels almost like a dish on slow burn ,threatening to simmer and boil over
Every time a message, call or notification arrives we are awaiting eagerly:
- This is the precise reason why Perfect Strangers needed such deft performances
- Hence, you aren't disappointed when the actors deliver and HOW!
- The performances are subtle, surreal and exquisite
- Each and every actor wear the skin of the characters living them out with ease
- They move a step ahead and create a moment out of every HOOK
- This is that exact moment where truths, lies and deceptions get unveiled
- Both Intentional and Unintentional
- While the premise trundles slowly towards a finale Genovese hits home a stark realization
- No matter the lives we live, our technology has created personas, lives distinct and disparate
- These are what have led to Deceptions, Betrayals, Lies, Masks and Facades
What doesn't work?
- There is not much I could complain of here in this narrative
- The only flaw I could oversee is the lack of an aftermath after all damage is done
However, this flaw is over turned when you arrive at the climax
The last few moments are A TRULY WONDERFUL DISPLAY of WHAT IF
It is a almost a Bitter Sweet Ending that you will relish once it hits home
For me it took a few minutes to register the climax to savor this taste, but the After taste still lingers!
P.S: The film was a critical and commercial success, winning the David di Donatello in the Best Film Category and grossing more than €16 million in Italy. It has been remade in many countries including Spain, Mexico, South Korea, Israel, France, Hungary, China and Russia.
Watch these Perfect Strangers play out their Imperfect Lives on screen as soon as you can

Apple's flagship desktop computer—which hit store shelves just before the holidays—may be priced as high as $14,000, but that's not so extravagant for those who really need this much power. As a creative worktool, Apple's new iMac Pro pushes the envelope farther than any other personal computer now available, and Apple is quick to point out that it is the most powerful Mac to date.
So, what does a buyer get for their $14K? A very comprehensive statement from Apple. From the display on top to the processors under the hood, this Mac is definitive. Up to 128 GB of RAM, up to 4 TB of solid state drive storage, a 27" Retina 5K display, and up to 18 cores of Xeon processors, this is the Mac to buy if you're a video game developer or into cutting edge VR, or you would like to be.
For the buyer only interested in the most beautiful Mac available for day-to-day use, the iMac Pro can be had for its base sticker price of $5,000. For that kind of entry fee you can get ahold of a more modest variant with an AMD Radeon Vega 56 video card with 8 GB of RAM, a 1 TB SSD, and an 8 core processor.
In all incarnations, the iMac Pro looks as fabulous as any new Apple computer, a sleek vision of a cutting-edge tech workstation that is, as usual, graceful and sculptural; this time around, with 80% improved cooling, and an understated flat space-gray finish.

The courtyard outside my room at my Cienfuegos casa particulare.
I got a quick orientation to the city, not wholly by my own choosing. My casa particulare, located just a few blocks from the bus station, is spectacular. It has an open-air courtyard with ornate French furniture surroundedc by ferns and potted plants. An iron swing sits near the entrance. My room not only has a flat-screen TV, the first I've seen in Cuba, but a fully stocked refrigerator of beer, soda and water. Again, like all casa particulares in Cuba, it's only 25 CUC ($25).

Forget zucchini noodles, it's time to get your heart a' pumpin' with some hardcore carbo-loaded-nara. We've rounded up the best eggy pasta in Melbourne, and we've even included the blasphemous (but equally delicious) creamy adaptation, because a lil' cream never hurt nobody (lactose-intolerant peoples excluded).
After scouring every Italian restaurant in the city, here are the best carbonara dishes in Melbourne.
400 Gradi
With locations across Victoria, Melbourne can't get enough of 400 Gradi's world-class Margherita. If you've been too busy scoffing down chewy-crusted pizza to try their classic spaghetti alla carbonara with egg, Italian guanciale (an Italian cured meat) and pecorino sardo, get your cheese-loving butt around it. This particular carbonara is only available at 400 Gradi Crown.
Pellegrini's Espresso Bar
This Italian institution has no set menu with daily dishes written in chalk on aging blackboards. If you're lucky enough to visit while Pellegrini's is serving homely, no-frills carbonara, thank chee-sus because you're about to be transported to carb-y cheese-filled heaven. You can mop up their creamy, decadent sauce with pillow-soft bread.
Don't be fooled by Donnini's unpretentious fit-out, or it's spot on the tourist trap of Lygon Street. Once a forkful of their plump, handmade spinach and ricotta tortelli coated in rich cream of mascarpone sauce hits your tastebuds, you won't re-grate this choice. Patrons have the option of choosing the Tortelli Di Ricotta paired with two other Donnini carb-y favourites, in case you want the best of all pasta worlds.
Umberto Espresso Bar
In a plain, simple interior off High Street, Umberto Espresso Bar is quietly serving some of Melbourne's best carbonara. Cheese-lovers can't miss this traditional, brie-licious combination of spaccatelli, pancetta, onion, garlic and egg. It's simplicity that will have you craving more.
Fox In The Corn
With a focus on using ethically sourced produce, Fox In The Corn's creamy carbonara with braised pancetta, leek and parsley is totally guilt-free. Maybe not for your waistline. Sinfully rich, pair it with your choice of pasta including melt-in-your-mouth spinach and ricotta ravioli. Serves are generous, but your friends better not comté on you sharing.
St Kilda
This tidy little Italian institution in St Kilda has been serving authentic cuisine for over forty years. One of their staple dishes is of course the classic carbonara, made with egg, bacon, cream and herbs. We highly recommend easing into a hearty serving of it with a big plate of chilli calamari to start.
Mercadante may have only been drying fresh pasta for a measly twelve years, but that hasn't stopped them from serving phenomenal food and second to none service. Most noteworthy, however, is their bloody good carbonara with rich cream and egg sauce combined with spring onion, lean bacon and pepper. FYI: bring elastic-waisted pants to Mercadante.
South Yarra
At Pinocchio's in South Yarra, you can get your carbonara sauce fix with any past of your choosing. Have your 'nara with either gnocchi, spaghetti or penne (or all three, we're not judging). And of course, cleanse your palate first with a few slices of bruschetta on arrival.
+39 Pizzeria
The home of the CBD's best-bloody-margherita-pizza is also coincidentally home to a damn good carbonara special that makes the rounds on the blackboard every once in awhile and will be in your dreams for everyday afterwards. Best to phone ahead to avoid disappointment, which is basically impossible because their margherita pizza is a permanent menu fixture.
Tiamo in Carlton is a Lygon Street hotspot that's been the backdrop for countless post-footy family dinners over the years. Aside from a stella homemade tiramisu, Tiamo put together a mean sans-cream carbonara tossed with eggs, bacon, cracked pepper and parmesan. Don't forget to grab a tub of Gelato from Pidapipo afterwards for the ride home!
Pasta Adagio
Richmond is an epicentre of first-class edible delights, and it's no different for the carbonara category. Pasta Adagio is a Bridge Road restaurant that packs a strong pizza punch but also knows their way around a damn fancy carbonara. Get a load of this: carbonara pasta on a nest of tagliolini, calamari, borage, battarga and salmon caviar. We're not sure what 80% of those words mean but we're already reaching for our wallets.
South Melbourne & Malvern
Head to South Melbourne to quench your carbonara thirst with a steaming bowl of Etto's delicious carbonara with smoky pancetta, leek & garlic creme fraiche, and the optional (but highly recommended) addition of roasted mushrooms.
St Kilda
Forget everything you thought you knew about carbonara because we've saved the wildest to last. St Kilda's Rococo have thrown tradition to the wind and have added the 'carbonara pizza' to their menu. Defying everything it means to be an authentic pasta, this carbonara pizza is everything you didn't know you needed in a carb-hybrid. Featuring an olive oil and roasted garlic base, the topping includes caramelised onion, parmesan, egg, fresh parsley and black pepper. If there's ever been a reason to phone home, it's this.
Want more pasta in your life? Of course you do. Check out the Ultimate Guide To Melbourne's Pasta.

Tom Mullaney, edtech guru, created a video introducing Google Canvas – you can use it on your laptop, your mobile device, or on a Chromebook. This is a great tool for students to use if they need to annotate an image. For example, when I taught American Literature and we talked about manifest destiny, I'd project an image of the paining called American Progress. Instead of asking students to find elements of our country's progress as a group, squinting at the projector, I could have them open up a copy of the image and do their own annotations. To get to Google Canvas you need to type the url into the address bar on your browser – it's not an app: canvas.apps.chrome
Here's the video Mullaney created with the details:

The Bridal Flower Review!
**This was not a paid post. My honest opinions were used, they are solely my own & they may vary from others.The products mentioned below have been provided by The Bridal Flower for the review free of charge.**
Here, Don't forget to enter! The Bridal Flower recently finished their brand new website and I love how everything turned out, they make it so easy to find exactly what you're looking for. When I spotted the Malibu Calla Lilly bouquet I knew it was the one, it has one of my favorite flowers and it isn't overly large I just wanted something sweet, simple and to the point.
The Malibu Calla Lilly bouquet features twenty real touch calla lilies along with several small matching gem stones and either a satin ribbon handle or a "full bling" handle. For my bouquet she created one in my wedding colors which are red and black, with a matching handle that fits in perfectly with the feel of our wedding. The flowers look and feel like they are real but they aren't so you won't need to worry about the flowers dying or looking off at your wedding and it will last for many years to come.
The bouquet is light weight yet feels sturdy in your hand, and even if you lay it on it's side you don't need to worry about the flowers being smashed because they will keep their shape due to the material they are made from. The flowers feel like they are made from a cross between a thin foam and leather which leads to it feeling like a real flower and it even looks like a real flower. The materials used have no scent to them so you won't have to worry about any kind of chemical smell from the materials the flowers are made from which is a big bonus. This bouquet fits into your hands perfectly, it can be carried one handed or two handed without any issues and it looks absolutely fantastic. I am very happy with how the bouquet turned out and shipping was not only speedy but packaged well so everything arrived in one piece. This bouquet can be bought for $84.99 with a satin ribbon handle, if you message the store owner I am sure she would be happy to make any bouquet in your wedding colors.

Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has joked with US breakfast television hosts that the difficulty of taking a three-month-old baby on a long haul flight is on par with running a country.
Ms Ardern appeared on NBC's Today Show, a programme with a US audience of about four million. She was interviewed by hosts Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie almost entirely about her role as a new mother in charge of a country.

She told them her appreciation of parents, mothers and particularly solo mothers had increased tenfold since she became a mother.
"I already had that appreciation, but now it's at another level."
"The joy, though, has far surpassed my expectations."

— TODAY (@TODAYshow) September 24, 2018
Hoda Kotb asked Ms Ardern about her statements before she had Neve that she could [run the country with a young baby] and that women work and have young kids all the time, asking whether it had met her expectations.
"It's really met my expectations. My sister has two children, I'm very close to her and I've watched her go through that journey and so I had a sense of it.
"You don't know until you are there of course, but it's met my expectations, the joy though has far surpassed my expectations."
Taking a three-month-old on a 17-hour flight "at the time, felt on par" with running a country, she laughed. "But between Clarke and I we managed it."
Ms Ardern also talked about her wish to bring kindness back into politics saying there is not one rulebook for leadership.
"I really rebel against this idea that politics has to be a place full of ego," –@jacindaardern pic.twitter.com/Mz2sotXnuL
— TODAY (@TODAYshow) September 24, 2018
"I really rebel against this idea that politics has to be a place full of ego and where you're constantly focused on scoring hits against each one another, yes we need a robust democracy but you can be strong and you can be kind."
The hosts also had a particularly interest in New Zealand's coalition government likening it to if Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz were running the government together.
Ms Ardern explained that there were three parties in government which shared a number of common principles and beliefs which they used as a platform to build on.

Buy a House With BitcoinMay 2nd, 2014 by The JetSetter Team | Comments Off on Buy a House With Bitcoin
Lately, we're seeing an influx of things available for purchase using Bitcoin, and now, even houses are available. In Southhampton, New York, for example, a seller has listed his property for $799,000—or, the equivalent value in Bitcoin. Owner Philipp Preuss says he'd also accept a combination of the two.
Bitcoin, which was introduced in 2009 and is not backed by a central bank or government, is a virtual currency traded online through Internet exchanges that are unregulated. Fluctuating significantly over the past year, Bitcoin has ranged from $13 to $1,200. Chinese banks have advised financial institutions to cease accepting deposits from businesses linked to Bitcoin, and the European Banking Authority has issued warnings on the currency's vulnerability to criminal activities and the laundering of money.
Still, some businesses are accepting the unbacked currency because they believe it will widen their consumer base. The house for sale in New York is among the first of its kind, and many see the inclusion of Bitcoin to purchase the house as a clever way to draw attention to and market the property. It's interesting, it's new, it's obviously being written about.
In Bali, Indonesia, a luxury home has actually been purchased using bitcoins, more than 800 of them (approximately $500,000). The villa has two bedrooms and comes fully furnished. It is located in the del Mango Villa Estate in Seminyak and was purchased through luxury bitcoin marketplace BitPremier.
The buyer doesn't wish to be named, but is described by Ronny Tome (the real estate developer who listed the property) as an early adopter of bitcoin. BitPremier now lists a number of luxury properties on the site.
Jason Hartman is skeptical of bitcoin (he expects governments' around the world will make it illegal), but we'd love to hear what you think. If you have any experiences using the currency (or are thinking about it) please feel free to share below!

The New Eating Disorder You Might Not Realize You Have: Food Guilt
We've all been there. Doubting ourselves after that third chocolate chip cookie, feeling anxious after eating a few too many chicken fingers at late night, or falling victim to the excessive guilt associated with "bad" foods. What happened to the good old days when we were kids – munching on cookies, macaroni and cheese, pizza, and pasta without a care in the world? We ate what we wanted, in moderation as regulated by our parents, and stopped eating when we were full.
Unfortunately, we've become obsessed with body image and the path to achieve the American ideal of perfection. Restrictive diets might seem reasonable at first, but upon closer inspection, these diets create "good" and "bad" foods leading to the psychological phenomenon known as food guilt. This food guilt phenomenon is extremely apparent on college campuses where collegiettes are trying to discover the balance between diet, exercise and weight maintenance all while enjoying the best four years of our lives.
What is Food Guilt?
While food guilt is natural in small doses, you might be surprised to learn that it can be classified as a psychological disorder as soon as it starts interfering with daily, routine activities. In its most severe form, food guilt is associated with disordered eating, ranging from binge eating to purging. However, it is important to note that food guilt exists on a less severe level as well.
To a certain extent, food guilt is completely normal. We all over-indulge a bit too much every now and then, whether that means eating too much ice cream or enjoying that third, or even fourth, slice of pizza. Over-indulging happens and that is okay. However, if every single meal is a battle with excessive guilt, shame and potential regret, then this might be something more serious. Evelyn Tribole, co-author of Intuitive Eating, can pinpoint where this overwhelming guilt begins: Not being at peace with food. She explains, "If you tell yourself that you can't or shouldn't have a particular food, it can lead to intense feelings of deprivation that build into uncontrollable cravings and, often, bingeing. When you finally 'give-in" to your forbidden food, eating will be experienced with such intensity, it usually results in 'Last Supper' overeating and overwhelming guilt."
Sheila Tucker, a dietician at Boston College, says that it is important to recognize and deal with the beginning stages of food guilt before it turns into something more serious, like disordered eating. She explains, "Disordered eating can be a way that some people cope with emotional feelings when they cannot directly deal with those feelings. Whether or not food guilt itself as a single factor could lead to disordered eating would depend on why the food guilt exists in the first place and the person's overall emotional health."
Origins of Food Guilt
So where did this food guilt trend come from? According to nutrition therapist Lynn Penrose, it is a construct of our society and a direct result of the media's influence. This might be hard to admit, but magazines, television shows, movies, books, and celebrities influence us whether we like it or not. Instead of promoting moderation and occasional healthy indulgence, the media has led us to believe that indulgence is a bad thing. Diets are built around this idea of avoiding indulgence all together, labeling foods as either "good" or "bad." We are conditioned to avoid all of the "bad" foods and feel ashamed when we give in to the temptation.
Tucker explains, "labeling food 'good' and 'bad' or 'healthy' and 'unhealthy' appeals to the all-or-nothing mentality that many folks have regarding food and health. This philosophy makes people feel badly if they think they made a 'bad' choice – as in wrong or right. Student clients will say things like 'I am so bad, I ate XYZ'. Food choices don't make you a bad person – but that is how many people, especially women, talk to themselves."
Some wise collegiettes have already figured this out for themselves. Kathleen Kalinksy, a sophomore at James Madison University, explains, "I have found that if I want a dessert, I don't tell myself that it is bad because it's really not as long as it's all in moderation."

These are challenging times and we find our lives, even the world in a state of flux rarely seen. We have little confidence that rationality will rule as America rides the rough economy out. We hope that our leadership will continue to be just and respected by free thinkers throughout the world. Billions have been lost by investors as former University professors with no particular interest in finance are at the helm of our futures. Dare I say, in this world of political correctness, that liberals, proud in their tradition of compassion have shown themselves to be like the emperor with no clothes as they delve into the rational world of finance. Were this a screenplay, I'd insert a reference that some feathers would have been ruffled, "Ah, he's one of those," would smirk a scholarly type, deferential that those he considers his equals would surely be in agreement that the "less informed" live in the world of commerce. All the arrogance and posturing are now merely window dressing to ACT II. There is a real need to resolve issues that have real consequences. No one welcomes such a challenge, but victory will be sweet. I fear mere debate of Collegiate U.N. politics that resembles Chicago politics is functioning in our great nation as our president drops back to punt. Will President Obama adapt to changing circumstances? Will the fears of left wing pundits be realized that he has no intention of saving the financial world from ruin?
Unfortunately, this is not a Saturday morning TV show on SciFi. This is your life! Even under a severe conservative belt tightening measured recovery, we're looking at 5-7 years before we reaccess. Certainly a healthy financial world exists in a delicate balance as we saw whan the house of cards fell. We will probably make lifestyle choices that will affect our outlooks well into the future abandoning our consumptive habits. We must recognize indications of rapid recovery as bubbles, always under construction to serve a few. We are still lucky to have the best conditions known to man under which to weather the storm. We will see if President Obama does truly want a healthy future for his daughters rather than the effects of a grand experiment that history has shown to be a waste, potentially bringing suffering to the spirit of a free world. Does the emperor have clothes?

A-Rod steroid use conversations have continued, and just may keep going until baseball season starts. The highest paid baseball player fielded some, and brushed off other detailed questions about his questionable behavior. The media has dug into Rodriguez, looking for a step-by-step full-cavity report of the exact details of each and every drug use.
Last Tuesday's Florida media frenzy resembled how an angry, possibly certifiable person reacts to their lover cheating on them. Questions are pretty similar in both cases: "was it worth it to you?", "can you tell me more about this person who did this with you?" and "exactly how many times did you do exactly what?"
The details can be juicy and interesting, but the point remains the same: he cheated. The guy is trying to avoid bringing anyone who helped down with him. He's an athlete, not a public servant or an intellectual. The Yankee third-baseman owned up to his wrongdoings. He owes no detailed explanation to anyone. Rodriguez has moved from clean to corrupt in the running list of baseball player status, and that's all that really matters.
Baseball players from Boston, of course, and all over the country have shared their preferred approach for how performance-enhancing drug use should be treated. Many players have chimed in support for strict strategy in order to voice their frustrations and/or look clean themselves.
The missing strong voice is that of Bud Selig. Since becoming the official Commissioner in 1998, Selig has not taken a really firm stance on performance-enhancing drugs. As the captain of the steroid ship, Selig has not been much of a leader.
Not since Barry Bonds broke the home run record in the summer of 2007, has it been so obvious that Selig has no idea how to treat the difficult issue of steroid use gone wild. He knows how to be defensive, as shown in his recent Newsday interview. Selig wants no blame, swears he knew about as little about the issue as A-Rod claims to know, and would like to divert attention to the progress he has made, not the opportunities he may have missed.
Selig has not owned up to his role (or lack thereof) in the troubles occurring under his nose through this saga. How did this anonymous survey result for one of the 104 players who tested positive get released anyway? Why is the word "suspension" being thrown around for A-Rod when it wasn't for others who have admitted guilt to the same crime? What will come policy-wise from this revelation? Now that I feel like a nosey reporter, but with attention on the leader of the pack, I wonder most if Bud Selig is consciously just shrugging off his duties as he declines to be decisive in addressing the burning question: "What is the best way for baseball to handle this?"
