    LIFE-STUFF With Samuel Johnson & Aaron Williams Mental Health & Wellbeing Keynote Presentations & Workshops LIFE-STUFF is a live, interactive presentation by accredited mental health social worker and executive coach Aaron Williams and Gold Logie Award winning actor and philanthropist Samuel Johnson. This uniquely structured presentation has been developed to smash the stigma around mental health. Samuel’s personal anecdotal style is complemented by Aaron’s positive, practical strategies. Together they help their audiences to feel happier, healthier and stronger – at work and home. They help people come to the realisation that it’s OK to struggle from time to time, and that it’s equally OK to talk about it. More about Aaron Williams: Aaron Williams started out as an IT Account Executive, but following an unforeseen period of depression and suicidal thinking, was inspired at 32 years of age, to change careers and focus on mental health. As a senior mental health clinician and trainer, he has worked with the Department of Health and has spoken and lectured widely on mental health. He has been a speaker and chair at major clinical conferences including the International Mental Health Conference, National Suicide Prevention Conference, 2016 National AMHSW conference and the Australian National Rural & Remote Telehealth Conference. In 2015, Aaron co-founded Mindstar, the mission for which is to make Australia the happiest, healthiest country in the world. Mindstar works with some of Australia’s leading national organisations.

Ms Rhiannon, who is the party’s transport spokesman, said a copy of the taskforce’s final report was leaked to her after the government again refused to release it publicly. ‘The analysis in this leaked document sug- gests the government has been sitting on the report because it knows that its findings would be extremely unpopular with voters who want rail services restored,’ Ms Rhiannon said. ‘It shows the taskforce’s complete disregard for the community’s desire for the revitalisation of rail services in the region by clearly favouring bus services as the silver bullet for the region’s transport problems.

  • “Monuments of Unageing Intellect”
    “Monuments of Unageing Intellect” by Melvyn New Which one of us would not dream that it might be said of his work of a lifetime: “He wrote a few good footnotes”? Simon Leys, The Hall of Uselessness. Several years ago Janine Barchas wrote an review essay of the first three volumes of the Cambridge Edition of the Works of Samuel Richardson (Eighteenth-Century Life, 38.3 [2014], 118-24), entitled “First and Last,” a title reflecting the fact that the Cambridge Works will be “the first-ever annotated edition of this author’s complete output” (my italics) and her opinion that it will be the last such print edition. Perhaps this caught my attention because in the same year I had just published the ninth and final volume of my thirty-five-year project of a scholarly edition of Laurence Sterne’s works, and had opined in its introduction that “what a scholarly editor learns, and I believe my coeditors will agree with this, is that after the final volume of the Florida Sterne, nothing remains but to start over again. A new scholarly edition of Sterne’s works will perhaps not be undertaken for another decade or two, but if Sterne is to continue to be read, his work must be edited and annotated anew for different times and new readers.” Or, just as likely, her review caught my eye because I am a coeditor of four volumes in the Richardson project, a scholarly edition of Sir Charles Grandison. Whatever the reason, I found her essay-review captivating, if also disturbing, and was even temporarily persuaded by many of her cogent arguments against the seemingly endless proliferation of very costly scholarly editions in the electronic era.
