I should have blue cheese running through my veins as I love all varieties that much. I was the weird kid that thought blue cheese was the greatest thing since sliced bread, or rather sliced red onion, as that is what my taste buds crave with blue cheese.
When invited by Honest Cooking to partner with CASTELLO® in a Summer of Blue campaign, I jumped at the chance. But, when creating this recipe on a very hot and humid Florida Gulf Coast afternoon, after my Dad was just hospitalized for dehydration, I wanted something cool with my CASTELLO® Extra Creamy Danish Blue. Beets! Another of my favorite foods, yet something I very rarely cook at home. A challenge!
Yes, it is tempting to top a burger with blue, or add the creamy blue to my popular Gulf shrimp and grits, and I have been known to stuff blue cheese in my biscuits on Sunday before baking. Also, there is nothing better than sweet summer figs and blue cheese pressed between bread, slathered with butter and then griddled, or on top of a flatbread pizza. But… I opted to steam and then cool red and golden beets, for a sweet salad that is topped with tangy blue cheese, spicy red onion, salted toasted local pecans, surrounded by fresh arugula, basil from my garden, and then drizzled with a delicious orange vinaigrette for a touch of acidity. Fresh, cool, creamy, decadent… just one bite, and you will be hooked!
Whether it's a sharp flavor, sweet floral notes, or a nutty aroma, blue cheese can come in many different forms. With crumbles, spreadables, slices and chunks,CASTELLO® blue cheeses are the perfect way to transform a blah meal into an amazing one! There are so many things to do with blue!
If you're exploring Castello's blue cheeses for the first time, or just want to learn a little more, you can download the detailed information sheet here.
Separately scrub red and golden beets clean, cut each in 1/2 and place in a steamer basket. Cook on medium high heat about 15 minutes until al dente (cooked through but still firm). Remember not to cook red and golden together. Remove from basket, cool and then rub the skins gently off. Cut into 1/4 inch slices.
You can purchase pecans salted. I opted to buy mine from my friend, Renee Savary , an organic "farmher" who owns Twin Oaks Farms in Bonifay, Florida. Her chickens are molting so she is currently without eggs, her organic self sustaining bee hive is not producing, but her heritage pork, preserves, jams and jellies are rocking my world!
Melt butter in microwave oven. Add salt and toss with pecans. Place on a cookie sheet and bake at 300°F degrees for 15 to 20 minutes, and cool on paper towels.
Arrange the golden beets on one side of the plate, red beets on the other, and pile arugula tossed with basil and red onion in the center of the plate. Arrange salted pecans and creamy blue cheese on top of salad plate, and then lightly drizzle with the orange viniagrette.
Tip: Cook the red and golden beets separately, as the red will definitely take over your plate and anything in its way!
Note: The benefits of beets are endless. Beets contain a color pigment called betalain, a powerful antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, fungicidal, and aid in detoxification. Beets are rich in many vitamins and considered an all-around healer.

© Greg Nash Candace Owens clip becomes most watched C-SPAN Twitter video from a House hearing A clip of a confrontation between conservative activist Candace Owens and Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) has become the most-viewed C-SPAN Twitter video from a House hearing ever, according to C-SPAN.
"In less than 24 hours, this video is the most watched C-SPAN Twitter video from a House hearing (4.47 million views)," Jeremy Art, C-SPAN's social media senior specialist, said on Twitter.
During the exchange, Lieu questioned the appropriateness of Owens's presence at the hearing, playing a clip of her from December discussing the difference between "nationalism" and "globalism" using Adolf Hitler as an example.
"If Hitler just wanted to make Germany great and have things run well - OK, fine," she said, and suggested that the Nazi leader erred in trying to expand beyond Germany.
Owens responded by accusing Lieu of believing "that black people are stupid" and accusing him of not playing the "full clip," prompting House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.) to cut her off and warning her not to "refer disparagingly" to a member of the committee.
Art noted that the clip of Owens's exchange with Lieu was 5 million views short of the network's most-watched overall video from a House hearing, which was a clip of Rep. Katherine Clark (D-Mass.) telling Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos that she was "shocked" DeVos could "not come up with one example of discrimination that you would stand up for students" in 2017.
The Owens-Lieu clash comes almost two weeks after Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) recorded the previous record for most-watched C-SPAN Twitter video, registering 3.2 million views on Mar. 28, according to C-SPAN. Schiff's generated interest after a fiery speech defending his claims of Russian collusion when Republican members of the House Intelligence Committee called for him to step down as chairman.
The record for Senate clips is Sen. Kamala Harris's (D-Calif.) questioning of then-Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, which was viewed 7.14 million times.

18/02/2016: AMBASSADOR CUISIA CONFERRED THE ORDER OF SIKATUNA
LOS ANGELES, CA – President Benigno S. Aquino III conferred the Order of Sikatuna, with the rank of Grand Cross (Datu) to Ambassador Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. in recognition of the envoy's "exemplary accomplishments in working for the advancement of the country's national interests in its relations with the United States," in a ceremony during the President's engagement with the Filipino communities in Los Angeles and southwestern United States on Wednesday, 17 February.
The Order of Sikatuna is an order of diplomatic merit conferred upon individuals who have rendered exceptional and meritorious services to the Republic of the Philippines; upon diplomats, officials, and nationals of foreign states who have rendered conspicuous service in fostering, developing, and strengthening relations between their country and the Philippines; or upon personnel of the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA), both in the home office and in the foreign service. The Order of Sikatuna is one of the three senior honors of the Republic, the other two being the Philippine Legion of Honor and the Order of Lakandula,
"Alam po n'yo, talagang karamihan ho ng mga in-appoint nating mga ambassador ay tinatawag na career diplomat. Iilan po ang masasabi nating political appointees. Si Joey Cuisia ay isa sa ating mga in-appoint. Talagang ipinagmamalaki ko na in-appoint natin ang mga katulad ni Joey Cuisia," President Aquino said in opening his speech addressed to the more than 800 members of the Filipino communities in southern California, southern Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.
The President described the Ambassador, as well as other political appointees Foreign Affairs Secretary Albert del Rosario and Philippine Ambassador to Japan Manuel Lopez as "self-starters," who propose solutions to problems and are tireless in promoting the interest of the Philippine Government and Filipino people in their places of assignment.
Ambassador Cuisia was also commended "for his unrelenting efforts and dedication in facilitating increased trade, tourism, investment, and people-to-people exchanges between the Philippines and the United States."
H.E. Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. was appointed Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of the Philippines to the United States by President Aquino III on 30 November 2010 and confirmed by the Commission on Appointments on 09 February 2011. He formally assumed his post at the Philippine Embassy in Washington, D.C. on 02 April 2011 and presented his credentials to US President Barack Obama on 07 July 2011.
Filipino community leader Dr. Marc Caratao offered his congratulations to Ambassador Cuisia, crediting the envoy for giving "guidance and advice to the Filipino American leaders [to] whom he is able to outreach".
"Because of him, we are beginning to activate ourselves within the community," Dr. Caratao said.
The award likewise cited Ambassador Cuisia for "spearheading and shepherding innovative programs such as the ground-breaking Filipino-American Youth Leadership Program (FYLPRO) and for strongly supporting the establishment of the Philippines-US Society."
FYLPRO, established by the Ambassador and his wife, Maria Victoria in 2012, has been providing a transformative immersion experience for next-generation and high-performing Filipino-Americans who demonstrate leadership in their respective communities.
"He has really linked us all, a bunch of Fil-Am young leaders, but we're a family in moving things forward. He really showed us that our hard work in all of our different corners of different communities, near and far, haven't been in vain, that we are on the right track and that we have to keep the momentum alive," Francine Maigue, FYLPRO Batch 1 (2012) said.
"We couldn't be more inspired. We couldn't be more proud of him," Francine added.
Rynn Shumacher, FYLPRO Batch 3 (2014), stressed the importance of the program's network in helping young leaders take on international initiatives.
"All of us can come together and the world is that small, that I can reach out to somebody in New York, or San Diego, everywhere, and we can make things happen. That's what he started," Rynn stated.
The US-Philippines Society, through its Co-Chairs John Negroponte and Manny Pangilinan, extended their congratulations to Ambassador Cuisia.
US-Philippines Society Executive Director Hank Hendrickson further said, "Ambassador Jose L. Cuisia, Jr. is recognized as one of the most energetic and effective diplomats on the Washington circuit. He has been a perfect representative of the Philippines under the Aquino Administration as it made impressive strides in good governance, economic growth and enhanced security over the past six years. Due in large part to Ambassador Cuisia, relations between the United States and the Philippines have never been better."
"He was instrumental in the 2012 launch of the US-Philippines Society and has been an invaluable partner in sustaining the Society's work over the past four years. Thanks to Ambassador Cuisia's support, the Society has achieved a strong reputation and firm foundation for carrying out its mission in the years ahead," Mr. Hendrickson added.
Ambassador Cuisia was joined by his family as he received the award from the President.
"I am humbled and greatly honored by this recognition. I sincerely thank President Aquino and Secretary Albert del Rosario for entrusting me with one of the most important diplomatic posts of our country. Without their trust and confidence, I would not have had the opportunity to further develop our alliance and partnership with the United States," Ambassador Cuisia said.
The envoy also lauded the Filipino communities in the United States for their energy and resilience.
"Everywhere I go in this country, Americans and other foreigners would tell me their positive views about their Filipino colleagues, neighbors, friends and acquaintances. These testimonials make me proud to be your Ambassador and inspire the Philippine Embassy and Consulates in the US to ensure that we represent our country effectively," he stated.
In his speech, Ambassador Cuisia took the opportunity to pay tribute to outgoing Secretary of Foreign Affairs Albert F. del Rosario.
"His principled leadership, unwavering dedication, and indefatigable energy have resulted in a re-energized Department anchored on a foreign policy that embraces the total protection of national interest," the Ambassador said. ###

and Weather (sort of; in my Iceblink post).
That left either more weather (well I am British and we do obsess about it), wish lists, World Tour beads, what I wear, (bead) waggon, the list was endless but none of them was sparking any urge to write... then it came to me... Writing!
It was under my nose all the time, quite literally, as I was typing this into my laptop at the time.
Obvious when you think about it really!
I love writing this blog, whilst I've blogged before, Curling Stones for Lego People is my first totally public, tell people (eventually) about it blog.
I enjoy the process of writing, the creation of ideas about what to say, how to say it, when to say and indeed if to say it. I like the nuts and bolts of editing a piece, seeing the focus change and knowing when it's ready... it's a bit like how I cook sometimes... those dishes where you have a vague idea how it will turn out, but you don't strictly follow a recipe and it's slightly different yet "yours" at the same time.
The by product of writing a blog, and this blog in particular, is I get days like today, I hadn't written this post until now... so, er, actually none of what I've just written about above, this is my cheese on toast post - sling it together and try not to burn it!
Once I've finished this, I have some research to do and then I'm off to meet 2 very different jewellers today in preparation for blogging Hull Fashion Week next week and all whilst finishing off the month long writing project that has been the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge, of which I hope to crawl over the finish line on Wednesday... literally embodying the last letter with several Zzzzz.
Makes me wonder how I ever fit in the day job?
What do you do for fun that makes you want to get out of a bed in the morning and stay up late at night to achieve? Hit the comments and tell me more!
I like how you related writing with cooking, knowing when a piece is done. Sometimes something I'm writing will sit for a while until I get it just right, sometimes I'll publish something knowing that it isn't quite right, but knowing that if I tinkering with it too much more I'll ruin it (kind of like burning a meal :D).
I can relate to the leaving it to sit for and a while and the publishing even though it's not quite right but wont stand for any more tinkering!
Props to you on the web design, I haven't a clue! I've just about managed to get Google Analytics onto Curling Stones and set myself some goals... now I just need the time to figure out what regular reporting I want to set up!
Thanks Shawn, will head over to you tomorrow night for a good read! Just had a seaky peek for now as I'm all blogged out today.
I've been researching/visiting participants in Hull Fashion Week today and covering an event tomorrow, so once I've unloaded my photos I think I'm heading for an early night!
Writing my book, though I haven't had much time to work on it. Life has been draining much of the joy from it for me recently.
Wow, am always amazed by people who are able to write a whole book, that's like cooking a 25 course banquet for hundreds of people. I've actually bought 2 books since the challenge begun because of either stumbling across the author's blog or the book being mentioned by another participant.
I think taking a break helps, even when just blogging I took a break last October as wasn't feeling the inspiration as much to write, plus life was quite busy - now (apart from April) I've promised myself to just blog once or twice a week, unless it's a special occasion!
I had a series of interesting conversations yesterday with a group of people who were learning how to and actually making a silver ring for the first time at a jewellery taster workshop. The processes and how people were choosing to make their rings and how they turned out was a magical journey to be an observer to.
I love writing my blog, but days like yesterday spending time with a group of students and artists at Oresome Gallery are just special!

Mälmo
Hellö from Sweden! Umlauts galöre!
The last day of Roskilde was so much fun. Devendra didn't end up having to really do a collaboration with Joanna, but we did all sing Ämöur Föu together. We were able to see so many bands. Andy was stoked about Konono No. 1, they're from Congo. They had about 9 people, including a dancer, and 3 of the guys played these homemade kalimbas. They were really fun to dance to and it was amazing that they played Roskilde. I normally would never have a chance to see anything like that. We missed The Game to see them but Noah and Dev and Lucky said it was pretty crazy. We also saw bits of The Futureheads, the Go Team, and Bloc Party. We couldn't wealk around without tons of people coming up to us and wanting their picture taken with Devendra. Back at our stage we watched all of Rahzel's set, which was comepletely mindblowing! He's in The Roots and beatboxes, but he is extremely talented at it. He was able to make these incredible bass sounds with just his mouth and a microphone that were shaking the whole stage. He even gave a little history lesson on beatboxing and hip hop. Later backstage we talked to him for a bit and took some pictures with him. He was really sweet. And finally...BRIAN WILSON! It was kind of sad, actually, he was obviously very out of it and lip synching to some of the songs. It was fun to hear all those Beach Boys songs and watch Jo and Jamie dance around but we left after a while. Overall, Roskilde was a very strange experience! There's definitely nothing of that caliber in the States. And I'm glad to be in the normal world where there aren't boys peeing on fences everywhere you look. That was the grossest part.
On the way to Mälmo yesterday we stopped at an amazing anarchist "island" in the middle of Copenhagen called Christiania. I highly recommend checking it out in the internet somehow, there is simply too much to mention about it here so quickly! Tonight is the Accelerator Festival with great bands like Sonic Youth, Smog, Joanna, Wolf Eyes, etc. Should be a lot of fun, and I don't have to sell merch because the festival does it for you, so I get to enjoy all the shows. Maybe I'll play the maracas again!


Okay, I've had a little fun with you. EVERYONE wants a celebrity to crash their wedding. However, in case Taylor Swift doesn't crash your wedding, I have good news: DJ Delights has a ridiculous library of music that we will bring to your wedding.

Modern times:
I doubt if many of Motor Sport's discerning readership are aware of a populist quiz show on British TV called Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Contestants have to select one of four possible answers to a general knowledge question, and if they answer 15 correctly they win £1 million. I was recently ambushed into watching this morsel of popular culture, and one of the questions was: Bernie Ecclestone is connected with which sport? Is it (a) Tennis, (b) Athletics, (c) Formula One or (d) Cricket?
The question spoke volumes for the broadcaster's, and the public's, view of things. Tennis, athletics and cricket are proper names for proper sports. Option (c) should of course have been Motor Racing. But Ecclestone has hijacked it so completely that the man on the living room sofa thinks motorsport means F1, and there is nothing else. He may be vaguely aware of other levels of racing, just as there is Division Three football or village cricket But they are obviously too trivial to matter.
You and I know better. We understand the hierarchy that is meant to develop future F1 talent, and the other classes of racing that give serious amateurs and potential stars some great sport. But in Europe at least, all the real money goes to prime Fl 's fortnightly pump. There is Le Mans, of course, which happily still attracts the high-spirited support of tens of thousands of British enthusiasts: but it is no longer part of a noble championship series of great classics like the Targa Florio or the TT. The 1000km races at real road circuits such as the full Nürburgring and the old Spa, and even the BOAC 500 at Brands Hatch, are all gone. I accept that the Masta Kink, Schwalbenschwanz and the dusty Madonie country lanes are, sadly, inappropriate for modem-day racing. My regret is that there isn't a season-long equivalent, on modern tracks, of those memorable long-distance battles between the Ferrari 512 and the Porsche 917, or D-types and DBR1 s and Testa Rossas.
I have always regarded F1 as part of a bigger motor racing fabric: the most prestigious part, and in its best years probably the most exciting part. But it is the peak, not the whole mountain. After four decades of writing and talking about motorsport there are wondrous grands prix that will live in my memory for ever. But I have also watched unforgettably heroic battles at Le Mans, Formula Three slipsteamers at Reims, the roistering NASCAR circus, Indy 500s fraught with drama, and great races at Brno and Vallelunga and Mount Fuji and Road America and Snetterton and Anderstorp and Jarama and Cadwell Park. When F1's fortnightly rigmarole is unpredictable and closefought, it can give the general public all the fine motorsport they need. But when it's going through a dull patch they assume that all motor racing is dull, because they don't realise there's anything else.
Well, F1 had an excellent day at Monaco, with a maiden GP winner in Jarno Trulli and some intriguing battles. It had a less good day the next weekend at the Nürburgring, with Ferraris 1-2 again, both McLarens blowing up in front of Daimler-Chrysler's corporate guests, and one Williams driving into the other at the first corner.
The best thing about the 'Ring was Takuma Sato, who outqualified teammate Jenson Button to become the first Japanese driver to start a GP from the front row. Then he challenged Rubens Banichello for second place in a brave move that was probably never going to come off, but showed that Takuma is a big-hearted charger. I asked BAR boss David Richards if Takuma had earned a telling-off: "Certainly not! We employ drivers to go racing, and Taku is a racer."
After Monaco came the elevation at Williams of Sam Michael to the role of technical director. Williams has always been driven from the front by Sir Frank and Patrick Head, and despite Frank's dreadful accident nearly 20 years ago, the two of them have always run the team their way. But now Patrick, at the age of 57, has handed the reins at races to Sam, who is the personification of the modern F1 heavy-hitter: cool, calm, single-minded, a clever strategic thinker, a leader of men and a brilliant engineer. He came from Australia to join Lotus as a young mechanic and, after a stint at Jordan, moved to Williams in 2001. The difference, of course, is that Frank and Patrick own Williams between them, 70/30: Sam is merely an extremely well-paid employee.
Down the years many of the great F1 teams have been primarily the achievement of one man. And usually an imperfect man, for the brains, ambition and drive needed to win have often been allied to arrogance, selfishness and ruthlessness. Of these autocrats, Enzo Ferrari leaps to mind: the team that he ruled with a rod of personal iron for so long is now almost a democracy, with Jean Todt, Ross Brawn, Paolo Martinelli and Rory Byrne reporting to the Ferrari board.
Mercedes-Benz in the 1950s had its mountainous team boss Alfred Neubauer who, although a hired hand of Stuttgart, ran the team in an autocratic, disciplined and very effective way. Tony Vandervell paid for the Vanwall team out of his own pocket, and brooked no argument He knew what he wanted — "to beat those bloody red cars" — and he did it.
Colin Chapman was the archetypal old-school F1 boss, a brilliant and inventive engineer who built a top team from backstreet beginnings. His restless ambition effectively destroyed his health and his business, and after his premature death Team Lotus could not struggle on without him for long. Ken Tyrrell, so different from Colin and yet with the same single-minded determination, improbably created a title-winning team from a Home Counties timber yard.
Today it's different. There are the teams that are part of major manufacturers, such as Toyota and Jaguar. Both have had management reshuffles, rather too many in the case of Jaguar, and both demonstrate how hard it is to find success in F1 if you are part of a big organisation. There are the teams that remain tightly knit, but have a close relationship with a major partner, like Williams with BMW, McLaren with Mercedes, BAR with Honda. And there are the independents like Paul Stoddart's Minardi and Peter Sauber's eponymous team, which inevitably find life tough.
It's Flavio Briatore and Eddie Jordan who behave most like old-fashioned team bosses. Briatore is a Renault employee these days, but they pretty much let him be his own master, and he gets results — partly because he has an unromanticised view of racing, which never interested him before the Benetton family got him involved. Jordan had the chance to sell out to Honda a few years back for a huge pile of money, but eventually backed away from the deal, allegedly for a splendidly egotistical reason: because his name would no longer be on the cars. As it is, Jordan more than any other team runs the old way, exuding the larger-than-life character of the proprietor in all it does. That may be precisely why times for Eddie's team have never been so tough.
When great drivers pass their peak and retire, the junior formulae feed in new talent to replace them. With team bosses, they can delegate to new talent while retaining overall control, as is happening at Williams. Or they can allow a takeover by an industry partner, as happened with Benetton, and may soon happen with McLaren. Or they can sell, so that the old team effectively becomes a Trojan horse for a new one, as Tyrrell did for BAR.
But none of these brings totally new blood into F1. Now there are only 10 teams on the grid, at least two of which are hanging on by their wheel nuts. That's why FIA President Max Mosley wants to open the door to new outfits and let them make use of existing engines and equipment. One of the current F3000 protagonists, like Arden and Super Nova, could be a McLaren of the future.
And that's exactly what the unsung lower rungs of the racing ladder should be doing: feeding the future, not just with drivers, but with every sort of engineering and management talent. The average age of team bosses down the pitlane 15 years ago was almost 15 years less than it is now, because many of the faces are the same. It's a sobering thought. If F1 really were the only motor racing that mattered, it would eventually starve itself of talent, grow old and die. Thank goodness it's not Il

For two days in early December 2017 – 108 years and a few days after Queen Lili'uokalani so generously created her trust – the teams of Lili'uokalani Trust and Berliner Architects came together in a charette, beginning the collaborative process of imagining the physical embodiment of the Trust's ambitious future work: a multi-purposed Imagination Center designed to inspire and serve the creative and social needs of its kamali`i and community.
Woven throughout the grand schemes and dreams, however, there are core needs which reflect the team and community at hand. In an attempt to distill the core programmatic elements, Berliner Architects assembled a basic program document after Charrette Day 1 to being to give shape to the previous day's discussion.

Patty Murray
Murray calls for removal of President Trump from office
One of a growing number of lawmakers asking for 25th Amendment to be invoked by Pence
Thursday, January 7, 2021 12:12pm
U.S. Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA) on Thursday called for the removal of President Donald Trump from office under the 25th Amendment.
Murray issued the following statement on Congress resuming its constitutional duty to certify the election after a violent mob of Trump's supporters attacked the U.S. Capitol, calling for the 25th amendment to be invoked immediately to prevent Trump from inciting further harm in the days ahead.
"Congress is continuing the process of certifying the election, but only after a day of chaos and violent extremism in the Capitol where some of our worst fears about the harm this president is willing to incite were realized.
"We need questions answered about the profound breakdown in security and the stark difference in the treatment of this violent mob compared to legions of women, people with disabilities, members of the clergy, and activists of color who have peacefully protested in and around the Capitol complex.
"The insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol today (Wednesday) should be held fully accountable for their actions under the law. So should the president. The most immediate way to ensure the President is prevented from causing further harm in coming days is to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove him from office. As history watches, I urge Vice President Pence and the president's cabinet to put country before party and act.
"To families in Washington state and nationwide, please know that as frightening as this has been, there is reason for hope because of your participation in the very same processes the president is seeking to undermine. Because of you, we will soon have a president and Senate determined to protect and strengthen rather than jeopardize our democratic institutions. Continue to have faith in yourselves, each other, and our democracy, and we will get through this together."
Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other lawmakers also have called for Trump to be removed. President-elect Joe Biden takes office Jan. 20.
Congressional Democrats from Washington calling for Trump's removal include Reps. Adam Smith, Kim Schrier, Derek Kilmer, Rick Larsen, Pramila Jayapal, Suzan Delbene and Marilyn Strickland.

Psychosocial hazards and factors
Work-related bullying in your place of work can affect your workers' psychological and physical health and must be managed.
What's work-related bullying?
Work-related bullying is repeated and unreasonable behaviour directed towards a worker or a group of workers that creates a risk to health and safety.
Examples of behaviour, whether intentional or unintentional, that may be work-related bullying include, but are not limited to:
abusive, insulting or offensive language or comments
unjustified criticism or complaints
deliberately leaving someone out of work-related activities
withholding information that is vital for effective work performance
setting unreasonable timelines or constantly changing deadlines
setting tasks that are unreasonably below or beyond a person's skill level
not giving someone the information, supervision, consultation or resources they need to get the job done
spreading misinformation or mean rumours
changing work arrangements, such as rosters and leave, to deliberately put particularly workers out.
What's not bullying?
A one-off incident of unreasonable behaviour isn't work-related bullying, however it may be repeated or escalated and so should not be ignored.
Examples of behaviours or situations that aren't workplace bullying include:
unreasonable behaviour that involves physical violence, for example a physical assault or threat of physical assault
reasonable management action, in connection with a worker's employment, isn't considered bullying if it's done in a lawful and reasonable way, taking the particular circumstances into account
acts of unlawful discrimination or sexual harassment
a conflict at work – differences of opinion and disagreement are generally not considered to be bullying.
Advice and assistance on how to deal with discrimination or sexual harassment can be provided by:
Queensland Human Rights Commission and
the Fair Work Commission.
Bullying at work can be harmful to the person being bullied and also to those who see it happening. Bullying affects workers in different ways and will vary depending on individual characteristics and the specific situation.
The effects of bullying could include:
panic attacks or disturbed sleep
physical illness, for example muscle tension, headaches, fatigue and digestive problems
loss of self-esteem and self-confidence
feeling isolated
deteriorating relationships with colleagues, family and friends
negative impact on work performance, concentration and decision-making ability
suicidal thoughts.
Bullying can also have a negative impact on the work environment and create direct and indirect costs for a business, including:
high staff turnover and recruitment and training costs
low morale and motivation
increased absenteeism
disruption to work when complex complaints are being investigated
counselling, mediating and support costs
costly workers' compensation claims or legal action
damage to the reputation of the business.
How do I manage the risks?
Everyone at your place of work has a work health and safety duty. Working together, you can help keep bullying from happening at work.
As a worker, you have a duty to:
take reasonable care for your own health and safety while at work
take reasonable care that your acts don't negatively affect the health and safety of others
follow any reasonable instruction given by the person who conducts a business or undertaking (PCBU)
co-operate with any reasonable policies and procedures of the PCBU, for example a bullying policy.
You should read the information on this page together with Dealing with workplace bullying – a worker's guide. This guide will help you to deal with bullying and keep it from happening at your place of work.
As a person conducting a business or undertaking (PCBU), you have a primary duty to ensure the health and safety of your workers, and others, in your place of work.
This duty includes, so far as is reasonably practicable:
providing and maintaining a work environment that is without risks to health and safety
providing and maintaining safe systems of work
monitoring the health and safety of workers and the conditions at your place of work to ensure that work related illnesses and injuries are prevented
providing appropriate information, instruction, training or supervision to workers and other persons at your place of work to allow work to be carried out safely.
Following the risk management process will help your business meet its responsibilities under work health and safety (WHS) laws. The Guide for Preventing and Responding to Workplace Bullying contains detailed information around each step of the process.
Step 1. Identify the potential for bullying at your place of work
You can find out if bullying is happening, or there is the potential for bullying, by:
talking regularly with workers, health and safety representatives and health and safety committees to find out if bullying is happening or if there's anything that could increase the risk of bullying
seeking feedback when workers leave the business, for example, holding exit interviews
seeking regular feedback from managers, supervisors or other internal and external parties
monitoring incident reports, workers compensation claims, patterns of absenteeism, sick leave, staff turnover and records of grievances to establish regular patterns or sudden unexplained changes
recognising changes in working relationships between workers, customers and managers.
There are a number of factors that could increase the risk of bullying at your place of work. Section 2 of the Guide for Preventing and Responding to Workplace Bullying has a list of these.
Step 2. Control the risks
You can reduce the risk of bullying by creating and promoting a positive work environment where everyone is treated fairly and with respect. You should consider a combination of the following control measures at your place of work.
A senior management team that is committed to identifying, preventing and responding to bullying can help prevent unreasonable behaviour and manage psychological risks. For example, managers can show their commitment by making sure reports of bullying are taken seriously and properly investigated each time.
Set the standard of work behaviour
You can outline what is and is not appropriate behaviour in a code of conduct or a policy to your business. With the standard of work behaviour set, you can address inappropriate behaviours before they escalate.
Develop productive and respectful working relationships
Good management practices and communication are an important part of creating a work environment that prevents bullying. For example, mentoring and supporting new and poor performing managers and workers.
Design safe systems of work
Work design control measures may reduce the risk of bullying, for example, reviewing and monitoring workloads and staffing levels to reduce over-the-top working hours.
Implement reporting and response procedures
It's important for workers who experience or witness bullying at work to know they can talk to someone in the business, that their report will be taken seriously, and that it will be confidential. Workers affected by bullying will be more likely to report their case if there's a reporting process in place.
Provide training and information
Training can significantly help you prevent and manage bullying at work. It's particularly useful for early intervention in conflict before it potentially escalates into bullying. There are many ways you can provide training including online courses, podcasts and face-to-face training.
Section 2 of the Guide for Preventing and Responding to Workplace Bullying looks at each of these control measures in detail. You should read this to make sure you know how to stop bullying from happening in your place of work.
Step 3. Monitor and review
Risk management should be an ongoing process in your business and you should review your control measures regularly. Don't wait until something goes wrong.
Policies and procedures should be reviewed regularly. You must carry out a review alongside your workers and their health and safety representatives (if any).
A review can be taken at any time but it's recommended it's taken at least:
when a case of bullying at work has been found
at the reasonable request of a health and safety representative or a health and safety committee
when new or additional information or research about bullying at work becomes available
where a review of records shows reports of bullying at work are increasing, or
according to a scheduled review date.
You should report the results of reviews and any suggested improvements to managers, board members and applicable health and safety representatives and health and safety committees.
Reasonable management action taken in a reasonable way
As a PCBU, you may take reasonable management action to effectively direct and control the way work is carried out.
It's reasonable for managers and supervisors to allocate work and give feedback on a worker's performance. These actions aren't considered to be bullying if they're carried out in a lawful and reasonable way, taking the particular circumstances into account.
A manager exercising their legitimate authority at work may make some workers uncomfortable.
The question of whether management action is reasonable is determined by considering:
the actual management action rather than a worker's viewpoint of it
if the action involved a significant departure from established policies or procedures
if a departure from established policies or procedures happened, whether it was reasonable in the circumstances.
Some examples of reasonable management action are:
setting realistic and achievable performance goals, standards and deadlines
fair and appropriate rostering and allocation of working hours
transferring a worker to another area or role for operational reasons
deciding not to select a worker for promotion where a fair and transparent process is followed
telling a worker about unsatisfactory work performance in an honest, fair and constructive way
telling a worker about unreasonable behaviour in an objective and confidential way
implementing organisational changes or restructuring
taking disciplinary action, including suspending or terminating employment where appropriate or justified in the circumstances.
The committee was established to ensure there is an ongoing consultative forum for injured workers and families affected by a workplace death, illness or serious incident. Read more about the committee.
Standards and compliance
All standards and compliance responsibilities for psychological health fall under the Work Health and Safety Act 2011.
You should read through the relevant legislation and codes of practice carefully to make sure your business is complying with the health and safety duties in the WHS Act.

The Bank of Melbourne Vertigo Platinum Credit Card occupies an unusual place in the bank's credit card collection. The very word 'Platinum' indicates that it's a prestige card, and it does indeed come with a range of complimentary insurance policies, Visa Platinum privileges, and the inevitable higher annual fee. However, it has two unusual features not normally associated with a platinum card: a low ongoing purchase interest rate and the total absence of a rewards program.
It's evident that the Bank of Melbourne doesn't expect to earn a lot of interest income from its prestige customers who can afford a platinum credit card. For making that extra outlay on a higher (but not extraordinarily high) annual fee, you'll be rewarded with the bank's lowest ongoing purchase interest rate of 12.99% p.a.
Although platinum cardholders may not normally plan to have an interest-bearing balance on their account, a low purchase rate like this can be very useful to smooth out the bumps in the road if you have temporary cash flow problems. It also softens the blow if you happen to miss a monthly payment by accident.
Not sufficiently tempted by the low ongoing purchase rate? How about paying 0% p.a. for 26 months on any balance you bring across to this card from other cards outside the Bank of Melbourne, St. George and BankSA group? By taking up this generous offer you can earn interest by depositing the cash you would have otherwise used to pay off the balances, but be careful not to squander your resources because settlement day will eventually come around at the conclusion of the 26 months interest holiday.
If you can't pay off the balance after 26 months, any remaining debt will attract interest at the card's ongoing cash advance rate of 21.49% p.a. And there's also a 2% balance transfer fee to pay upfront.
Let's suppose that you've transferred a tidy sum you had outstanding on other cards, benefitting from interest savings for 26 months. At the end of all this there's still one more bonus waiting for you, in the form of Up to 55 days on purchases each month, delivered by the card's payment cycle providing you have no unpaid balances.
Some cards offer only 44 interest-free days monthly, but this card does not stint. Those extra 11 days of credit each month translate into 132 extra days per year. So, if you have a 4% p.a. mortgage offset bank account, those extra 132 days could save you $43 in interest per year if your average card account closing balance is around $3,000.
Annual multi-trip overseas travel insurance for the primary cardholder and their family, covering medical expenses, unavoidable trip cancellation, baggage and personal items (up to $15,000 per person), travel delays, rental vehicle excess, lost travel documents, and more. Activate this very comprehensive cover by using the card for at least $500 of your prepaid travel costs.
Domestic flight inconvenience insurance, covering flight delays and cancellations, car rental excess, luggage and personal items, when you take an interstate holiday of up to 14 days, paying for your airfares with the card.
Cover for accidents when travelling on public transport (plane, bus, train or ferry) outside Australia, when the card has been used to pay the fares.
Purchase protection. Four months cover (better than the three months offered by many cards) for personal items purchased with the card, against theft, loss or damage. Annual claim limit $135,000.
Double the manufacturer's warranty – up to a maximum of 12 extra months – on items bought using the card.
Price guarantee cover on items purchased with the card. Get the price difference (between $75 and $300) refunded if it is advertised at a lower price in a printed catalogue within 21 days.
While some of these policies might seem superfluous, because you wouldn't dream of paying for cover of this type, the wide-ranging travel insurance and rental vehicle excess cover will prove definite money savers for both business and leisure travellers.
The Bank of Melbourne's web page for the Vertigo Platinum credit card promises 'the luxury of a personal concierge service, Visa Platinum Concierge', but the concierge service (for assistance in planning and booking your platinum lifestyle travel, entertainment events and dining) is only one small part of the Visa Premium benefits that come with the card. You'll also get special deals, discounts and privileges such as concert tickets before the general release date or access to a 'meet and assist' service to smooth your way through airport immigration procedures.
The Bank of Melbourne subscribes to the 24/7 Falcon Fraud Monitoring service to allay any anxieties you may have about the risk of using a credit card, especially online. Verified by Visa adds an extra layer of online shopping security with one-time passwords delivered by mobile phone.
There are a lot of benefits bundled into what is, on the surface, an unassuming card. Since the interest rate is low (for a credit card) you'd probably be expecting a higher-than-average annual fee, but you'd be wrong. At $0 p.a., the annual fee is relatively reasonable, because you are not helping to pay for an expensive rewards program.
You can also have up to three supplementary cardholders at no extra cost. You will, however, want to hang on to your card for more reasons than one, because, if you lose it, the card replacement fees are rather steep: – per card within Australia, $52.50 if you're overseas, plus an extra $45 to cover courier fees if it's an emergency.
This card is a perfect fit for . . .
. . . anyone who wants (and can afford) platinum card benefits and insurance policies without the hassle of keeping track, redeeming – and ultimately paying for – rewards program points. The zero interest balance transfer should seal the deal.
I like the travel insurance that comes with this card. The purchase rate is quite low compared to other cards that have travel insurance. However, if they decided to go lower that would be even better.
I would like to be able to design my own card, to make it a bit more personalised.
I applied for this card on the 0% balance transfer offer for 12 months and it was well worth it—very easy to apply and quick approval. I am a happy Bank Of Melbourne customer already and the process was very quick.
My only one minor complaint is that they keep sending me paper statements when I requested electronic! Other than that, this is a great card if you need to consolidate debts, manage your finances, and get your debt in check.
I found them to be simple, helpful, and the whole process was done quickly online—I was accepted and received notification quickly, followed by my card and PIN. It was easy to activate, so the whole process was a pleasure! I was pleasantly surprised as I had tried other credit cards and it certainly wasn't a simple process.

Internet marketing is no mystery if you know what's hot in e-marketing. Read on to learn some of the hottest tips that will get great results.
These Internet marketing tips are what the online marketing pros use to drive their e-marketing businesses.
Simple Websites Sell - It's the simple, plain text that website viewers are most influenced by. The text information on the Web page contains the vital information that your site visitors are looking for first and last.
Make your text messages short and sweet. Don't try to impress your site visitors with fancy words and phrases. Unless you are appealing to professional visitors that will be familiar with professional jargon don't use it on your site pages.
People get frustrated fast with things they don't understand or find confusing on the Internet. When that happens they click away, and go on to the next page of interest. Normally, people will visit multiple Web pages in one session. They don't waste time with irritating pages.
People are most interested in other people. The number one interest of people is people. When you do a search on the hottest topics trending on the Internet at any given time usually seven (7) or eight (8) of those topics will be individual people such as movie stars and entertainers.
When you appeal to the interest of people in people you are hitting the number one source of interest in Internet marketing. This is one big reason why social networking websites such as linkedin.com, facebook.com, and twitter.com are so successful, and have the largest volume of visitors.
People prefer to do business with people they know, like, and trust. You can help accomplish these things by making Web video and including up-to-date pictures of yourself or your company people a key part of your online marketing strategy.
In the absence of meeting you face-to-face people can get a virtual meeting with you through videos and photos. People love to watch interesting videos and view photos of people they find interesting. Search engines give top priority to Web pages with video content.
Your customers and contacts need to remember you. After people have a successful business transaction or contact with you online don't stop there. Send thank you messages, birthday greetings, and follow-up cards to help stay in front of those you have influence with.
Blogs and social networking are a great way to stay in touch with those you have a relationship with. Be yourself, be true, and be original when you communicate online. People need to get to know what makes you different. If people find you boring, like a typical salesperson, they will avoid you online as they do face-to-face.
Keywords People do "organic searches" (normal searches through Google, Yahoo, etc.) using single words, two word combinations, and short keyword phrases of three (3) or more word combinations (called "long tail keywords"). When you include those keywords in your Web page content those pages are more likely to come up in search results when people search on those keywords to find related content.
The rule of thumb is two percent (2%) of the content on the page should include relevant keywords. This is a rough percentage so don't get too hung up on this point.
Content Relevant information is what people use the Internet for the most. When you provide information that is relevant and timely people will visit your Web pages more often.
Links Inbound links, those are links that other Web page authors put on their respective Web pages to link to your Web pages, are votes of confidence in your Web pages and your content. Search engines will give you more favor in search results when other website publishers link to your Web pages.
Outbound links are also important. When you provide links to other Web pages produced by other Web page publishers you let the search engines (Google, Yahoo, etc.) know that you are trying to provide multiple sources of relevant information for your visitors.
Lastly on links, make sure that the pages within your website connect to each other. The search engines rate dangling, lone Web pages lower in search engine ratings.
Who owns your website content? It's safe to say that most people don't own a server (a big personal computer) on which to host a website. So, most website authors will purchase Web hosting services, including the purchase of domain names, etc.
Be careful when you as an Internet marketer or Internet business owner purchase website services. You want to make sure that you own all the content and domain names for your website. Some business owners marketing on the Internet get a big surprise when they find out that the Web hosting company owns their Internet domain names and content. Don't get caught in this trap.
Affiliate Marketing Affiliate marketing is selling the products and/or services of other Internet marketers on your website. You earn commissions on each sale that you generate for the product or service producer. The original producer will have a way to track sales to their respective website through a link tracking system. Normally, commissions are paid once per month either through credits to an electronic account or paper checks sent through snail-mail (regular post office mail).
Affiliate marketing is one of the fastest ways to make money on the Internet. You don't have to have a product of your own to do it. You don't even have to have a computer or website of your own. However, you will need access to the Internet which can be obtained for free at your local library.
The primary aim of affiliate marketing is to drive traffic to the seller's website through your sponsored links. Social networking websites are a typical source to do this.
Many online marketers make the majority of their online business income by having affiliates sell their products over the Internet. In this case you are the one sending the checks to your salespeople.
A List The first thing you need in sales is a list. Every company you will ever contract with or be employed by to sell something will require a list of potential customers after you master knowledge of the product or service. Internet marketing is no different.
If you own your own company or market the products produced by others you need a list of people to sell to. Don't be fooled by all the get-rich-quick schemes you see on the Internet. Behind virtually all of the Internet marketing success stories is list of warm buyers for the respective product or service.
You can buy lists through list services or generate your own. However you do it be certain that your most success will be generated through the customers on your list that know, like and trust you.
RSS Feed Add a RSS feed to your website pages. RSS means "Really Simple Syndication." When your website visitors subscribe to your RSS feeds they will get automatic notifications of new content or changes to your Web pages with the RSS feature.
With a RSS subscription (no cost) to your Web pages your website visitors don't have to search your site on a regular basis to find new or updated content. This can be very helpful when you have hundred's or over a thousand pages to your website. Your website visitors will appreciate the RSS feature.
Testimonials Whenever possible provide testimonials from visitors to your website or satisfied customers that have used or bought your products or services. Testimonials help potential customers see how your products or services might solve a problem they have in much the same way as the person giving the testimonial.
Testimonials lend credibility to you and your offerings. Be sure you follow all the laws regulating online testimonials.
These 10 Internet marketing tips are proven and time tested ways of doing successful online marketing. If you include any one of them you won't go wrong. The more you use the better.

PARTNER OF 1% FOR THE PLANET

ETHICAL & SUSTAINABLE GUARANTEES
The fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world, and it's time we rethink the materials, processes, and packaging used to create our beloved purchases. This is why we've done the upfront legwork and vetted our brands to ensure that our planet's health is top of mind for them as well.
Women lift up half of the sky - by investing in women, you're assisting in the process of creating more wealth for families and communities. The successes of women shape the way young girls see themselves as they develop into leaders, and it's essential for the world to provide leaders that mirror half of the population.
The secret behind the beauty, personal-care, and fashion industry is that they're virtually unregulated, and therefore, allowed to use untested chemicals in their products. Exposure to these ingredients can be harmful overtime, and that's why we've vetted each and every single one of these brands to ensure that they're up to standards for those looking for a cleaner beauty routine or may be more sensitive to harsh ingredients.
Here at ourCommonplace, all brands have our ethical stamp of approval, which encompasses decent working conditions, treatment of workers, and fair-wages. Through providing a platform for purchasing ethical goods and ensuring all brands uphold ethical standards, we hope to take us towards a more equitable and just world.
We believe in uplifting BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities by empowering their businesses. By choosing to allocate your purchasing power to BIPOC-owned businesses, you're not only strengthening local BIPOC communities — you're also contributing to shrinking the racial wealth gap, fostering job creation, and propelling diverse representation across consumer industries.
Animal tests are often painful and cause the suffering and deaths of millions of animals every year. Having this stamp of approval means that no animals were tested on, harmed or killed in the process of making the product. When you opt in for cruelty-free brands, you're opting out of animal testing, and investing in clean products that are made for the benefit of your body, animals, and the environment.
