First Event!!! ($10 for first 5people) Mochitsuki & Japanese BBQ

🍡 Pounding & Grilling: Authentic Japanese Mochitsuki & BBQ! 🪵🔥 Hey everyone! 👋 THIS IS THE OFFICIALLY FIRST EVENT, COULD YOU MAKE HISTORY WITH ME? Have you ever seen those amazing viral videos of traditional master mochi pounders in Japan? The high energy, the rhythmic shouting, and that unbelievably soft, stretchy rice dough? I am incredibly passionate about sharing real Japanese food culture and traditions, and I realized something... almost nobody gets to experience authentic Mochitsuki (traditional live mochi pounding) here in Sydney! So, I’m throwing a casual community BBQ and picnic, and I am bringing along a handcrafted, wood mortar (usu) and wooden mallets (kine) so we can do the real thing together! Whether you are a Japanese expat missing home, a massive foodie, or just curious to try something completely unique, you are incredibly welcome to join our circle. 💰 The Cost: **$20** per person. (it will be **$25** from next time) 🐧🐤🐴🦆\*\*$10\*\* for first 5 people How to pay: Please transfer the $20 to my PayID when you RSVP so I know exactly how many ingredients to buy at the supermarket. ⚠️ **Minimum Group Size: We need a minimum of “5”people confirmed for this event to go ahead. If we don’t hit 5 people, the event will be rescheduled and everyone will receive a full refund instantly.** 📍 Event Details: 📅 When: **15 June 2025 from 03:00 PM** 🌳 Where: **Pirrama Park** Please kindly join our whatsapp group! https://chat.whatsapp.com/FtHYMd1U3T12j9G7AkjK60?mode=gi_t or message to me (0433910481) or instagram (but no followers yet :))) https://www.instagram.com/mochitsuki_bbq?igsh=MTEzMGt0MWM5ZnF3bA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr Come hang out, make some new friends, practice to talk Japanese, and taste what real, fresh-pounded Japanese street food is supposed to taste like. See you all by the grills! 🍡🔥👋 TRY TO MAKE EVERYONE SATISFIED EVEN THIS IS THE FIRST EVENT. FEEL FREE TO JOIN!!

The vibe of this event is casual and low-pressure. It's a space to socialise, share food and make friends. 🎲 Each month we will have a new theme or activity. This month's activity will be board games. Feel free to bring along a board game to play! 📅 Monday 22nd June @ 7pm 📍 Berwick - meeting location will be sent to registered attendees. 🍔 Bring a plate of food or drinks to share. 💰 Gold coin donation + once off $15 membership fee if you attend more than once. If it's your first time joining us, you're welcome to trial the social night before you pay the membership fee. However, anyone attending more than once needs to become a member. This ensures we're covered by insurances and helps keep our costs low. The aim of this event is to create space for queer people to socialise and build community. There are so few spaces dedicated specifically to us, especially in the outer suburbs. If you are an ally or supporter, we appreciate you. However please mindful that this event is a dedicated space for people who identify as LGBTQIA+ only. Please reach out to Charli Violet or caseyqueercollective@gmail.com if you have any questions or join the[ private Facebook grou](https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1CfmGFAz6C/)p for updates

Capture commuters as they transition from the bright harbor sun into the shade, utilizing the intense midday sun to catch sharp, glowing white rim-light on their hair, shoulders, and profiles. * **Ghostly Crowds:** Use a slower shutter speed to capture the chaotic rush-hour environment. Keep the heavy structural iron columns tack-sharp while the streams of people turn into motion-blurred, ghostly textures moving through the dark transit hub. *** **12:30 PM \| Arrival at The Ship Inn** Walk just one minute around the corner from the underpass to **The Ship Inn** (Pitt St & Alfred St) to pull up a table, grab a cold drink or lunch, and review everyone’s environmental monochrome frames!

FREE: Walk the Kangaroo Point - Green Bridges - City loop

Join us for a walk around the Kangaroo Point - Green Bridge loop. We'll meet outside Joey's Cafe. We walk across the top of the Kangaroo Point cliffs, along the Southbank waterfront, across the Neville Bonner Bridge through old city Botanical Gardens, about 5 city blocks, then back over the new Kangaroo Point Green Bridge, along Main Street to The Pineapple Hotel. The Walk is about 7kms and takes about 80 to 90 minutes. Meet at 5:55pm (or earlier) for 6:00pm Start. Walk at your own pace as we stop at a number of catch up points along the way so you won't get left behind. Well behaved dogs on leads are welcome, but the dinner venue is not. Relax... Even if it your first time, we aim to make all feel welcome and it's a good idea to turn up a little early. Optionally... After the walk, we stop at the Pineapple Hotel for dinner and / or a drink, a great way to socialise in a group setting. The conversation is more dynamic in the group setting, so if your a bit shy you can enjoy being a listener, if there's a topic your passionate about, you can jump right in on it. The menu can be found here: https://pineapplehotel.com.au/garden-bar/ There is free parking from 5pm near Joey's Cafe, the Pineapple Hotel and the streets between. Plan on arriving a little early (10-15 minutes) we can have a chat and you have a buffer if traffic is poor. We do leave on time and once started I don't get a chance to check for messages as it is unsafe do while walking. If there is mild rain I'll do the walk, but, if it is pouring down or well set in, I'll just do dinner. Remember we are all adults so... I thank you as my guests that you bring your manners and be respectful! Please keep your RSVP up to date. It is seen by Meetup and your host as a sign of disrespect of you are a 'No Show' thank you. PLEASE NOTE This is NOT a formal organisation and has no public liability insurance. We are a group of people who get together, taking full personal responsibility at all times. By attending an activity, you agree automatically to take full responsibility for yourself.

Eating Food and Telling Stories: Malaysia

Eating Food and Telling Stories: Malaysia

A small dinner with strangers, stories, and delicious Malaysian food. Food has so much to tell - every dish carries memories. Enjoying the taste is great, but food becomes even more enjoyable when we know the story behind it. This event is not a lecture or a food tour; it is a dinner where we’ll eat together and talk about why we eat what we eat: how dishes travel, how flavours create memories, and how food becomes part of identity. I’ll guide the evening by choosing the dishes and sharing short stories about Malaysian food, ingredients, history, and culture, but the best version of the night is a conversation. Everyone is invited to taste, react, ask questions, and add their own perspective. It will be fun - we might debate the long-running Malaysia-Singapore nasi lemak rivalry, explore how laksa reflects centuries of migration, or look at how trade and colonial politics transformed flavours that many people now think of as traditional. You do not need to know anything about Malaysian food. You might be trying it for the first time, or you might have grown up eating it. Either way, the point is the same: to enjoy great food with good company and discover the stories behind the dishes. Coming alone is very welcome. Coming hungry for food and stories is even better. * Group size: 4-6 people * Duration: Around 1-1.5 hours * Cost: Free to attend; everyone pays for their own food and drinks, likely around $30–35 per person * The exact venue and dishes will be shared several days before the event. We'll be sharing a selection of dishes as a group, which is central to the experience. Because of that, this event may not be suitable for people with dietary restrictions

Could the Federal Budget Cost You Thousands?

## **What every property investor needs to know about the changes happening to negative gearing, capital gains tax and trust taxation — BEFORE the rules change.** The Federal Budget contained several major proposals that could significantly impact how Australians invest in property. Changes have been proposed to: * Negative gearing * Capital gains tax * Discretionary trusts For many investors, these structures form the foundation of their wealth creation strategy. But how would these changes actually work? Who could be affected? What opportunities still exist? And what should investors be thinking about now? At our [Melbourne meetup](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/meetup-vic.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn), **tax specialist Brent McCartney** will break down the proposed changes and explain what they could mean for property investors, developers, renovators and business owners. **What you'll learn...** **Negative Gearing Changes** **Discover:** ✓ What the Government has announced ✓ Which properties may be protected under grandfathering provisions ✓ How the proposed rules could affect future purchases ✓ The implications for investors buying established versus new properties **Capital Gains Tax Changes** **Learn:** ✓ How the current 50% CGT discount could change ✓ The proposed inflation-indexed alternative ✓ What the changes could mean for future property profits ✓ How transitional rules may apply to existing properties **Trust taxation Changes** **Understand:** ✓ The proposed 30% minimum tax on discretionary trusts ✓ Why the Government says the changes are necessary ✓ How family trusts may be affected ✓ Potential restructuring opportunities available during the transition period ✓ Real-world examples illustrating the potential financial impact **[RSVP now to attend FREE in-person or via Zoom](https://events.resultsmentoring.com/meetup-vic.html?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=drn)** **Why This Matters** Many investors spend years building portfolios based on rules that can change with a single Budget announcement. The investors who understand the implications early have more options, more time to plan and greater confidence when making future decisions. This session is not about politics. It's about understanding the proposed changes and making informed investment decisions. The proposed Budget changes could have significant implications for how Australians invest, structure and grow their wealth through property. Whether you own one investment property or a large portfolio, this is an opportunity to understand the potential impact before important decisions need to be made. **Important:** If you plan to attend, please click the RSVP link below and register.

Tricky Tuesday @ The Peacock Inn

Welcome to the **Tricky Tuesday** Meet Up! This is a smaller event in most respects - smaller capacity, smaller games - but still the same sized fun! Come join us to learn a new game and meet some new people. * This event was created primarily to play and explore **modern** **trick taking games** and **smaller card games** which can be played on more limited table space. * As this is a smaller event, please note it is a bit more casual. Find the group at the table/s, come over and join - we're a welcoming bunch. * Please **bring some games** to this event if you can and be prepared to teach them if you do. **There are** **no games available at the venue** but I will always bring a few. Please consider others when coming and in the lead up to the event. We want as many people there as possible. If you are unable to attend mark yourself as such as soon as you can so others can be notified and attend. There's an FAQ below but if you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out. Your tricky friend, Dave **FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS** **What is a trick taking game? Good question you handsome person.** * Generally speaking, a trick taking game is a card game which is played in a series of rounds known as ***tricks***. * Each trick is evaluated to determine a winner or ***taker*** of that trick and then will usually start - or ***lead*** *-* the next trick. * The goal is usually tied to either winning or losing a number of tricks. This may also come in the form of you guessing how many tricks you will win - known as a ***bid***. * Some games may have a suit that always wins - known as a ***trump***. * Most trick taking games are **competitive** needing between 3-5 players, others are **cooperative**, there are also solo and two-player trick taking games as well! * Popular trick taking/trick taking adjacent games you may have heard of: [The Crew](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/324856/the-crew-mission-deep-sea), [Skull King](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/150145/skull-king), [Cat in the Box](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/345972/cat-in-the-box-deluxe-edition), [Scout](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/291453/scout), [Fox in the Forest](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/221965/the-fox-in-the-forest), the classic games of [Spades](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/592/spades) and [Hearts](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/6887/hearts), **What makes a Trick Taking game fun?** * There's so much to trick taking games! They're generally quick to teach, quick to play, have interesting decision spaces, and a wide variety of novelty. Even the classics though can be played thousands of times without getting tiresome. Part of the fun is in the interaction with others, assessing their moves and countering them, and how to win (or lose) at the right times. You have to stay on your toes, adapt frequently, and keep tabs on the other players, what they have played, and what they may play next! **Do I need to know how to play/have played a trick taking game before?** * Not at all, but it is good to understand the basics and general terminology so you can pick things up a bit easier on the night. You can check out [this video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O7QyhKmCsk) for a bit of a general breakdown . **Is this event free?** * Yes, but please support the venue by purchasing a drink or two. **I'm on the waitlist can I still come?** * Unfortunately, no. We have limited capacity and must abide by it. **I don't have a game to bring, is that okay?** * Generally it will be okay, but it is encouraged to bring and share a game where you can! You can always bring a standard deck of cards or tarot cards and learn a card game or two as well! **Can I bring a guest?** * Unfortunately, unless they have signed up too it won't be possible. We have a strict limit on guests and the event would fill up too quickly otherwise. **How do I get to the venue?** * The 86 Tram is your best bet and has a stop pretty much right outside of the venue. * There are two train stations (Westgarth and Northcote) which are within walking distance. * Parking is available in the area but can get busy. If you don't mind a little walk there is parking down the adjacent street. **Dave, I worry you will win all the games we play. Such an intelligent and beautiful man, you must be a master of the tricks, is this true?** * Firstly - thank-you for the kind words, but secondly - no. I suck at trick taking games and lose more than I win. Yet, I enjoy them for their variety, high interaction, and quick nature regardless. You will be fine if you don't take things too seriously. It's about fun and meeting people... (but if you do beat me too often I will ban you from the group and venue...).

The only thing you have to bring is a yoga mat to lie on for receiving the healing at the end of the session, your heart and your smile, feel free to bring your friends, family member, neighbors, colleagues.. Please park at Thirsty Camel secure parking and walk towards the building. Ring 601 at the intercom and walk towards the lift, press 6 on the lift. See you there! :)LL Christine/ Grace/ Sam +61 413 264 386 We ask for a $5 donation to help with running costs. Feel free to call or message Grace with your queries. Make sure to also connect with our community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/openheartmeditation INTRODUCTION On the surface level Open Heart Meditation is a very simple yet effective way to shut the busy mind down, relax and unwind, and to reconnect with peace. Many people come as a quick way to recharge for the week and to find inner peace. On a deeper level Open Heart Meditation is about opening the heart to know your True Self and to connect with our Creator - the ultimate source of love and life - what we call "True Source". The divine energy from True Source (the Reiki energy) is a beautiful restorative energy of healing, joy, love and blessings. It's suitable for people from all religions because it's non denominational and helps people to better connect with their chosen spiritual path - experientially through the heart (rather than through the head with more thinking and theory). When you are connected to this abundant source of life energy every day, you will in turn receive life more abundantly. It will improve your overall happiness, health, and general well-being. You will find yourself more calm and less reactive; your choices in life will be more sound and centred; and you will be more in line with your True Self - all beyond the limited intelligence of the mind, other worldly wisdoms, and fluctuating emotions. The greater purpose of this practice for those who wish to pursue it beyond relaxation and healing is to return home - back to our Creator from where we all originated from - the ultimate source of life and unconditional love. Open Heart Meditation is therefore very different to many popular types of meditation, such as Mindfulness Meditation for the following reasons: • It does not rely on the mind or observation, or on emotions, but rather it is focused on the heart. We teach you how to easily shut the mind down, to open the heart, and sense from it. • Instead of practicing detachment, we teach you to attach to the source of abundant life first. This will then help you detach from all forms of negativities naturally without any effort. In doing so, this will gradually iron out negative reactive responses, smoothing your life's path. • This blessing, is a gift of Grace and cannot be earned by greater effort. The only thing one can do is to just receive this gift from True Source with an open heart, in gratitude. This group is dedicated to those who would like to learn, practice and share about Open Heart Meditation. Everyone is welcome to join, learn and contribute in a positive, safe and caring environment. :-) For more information about Open Heart Meditation: https://naturalwayofliving.com/wellness-programs/open-heart-meditation/ PERTH TESTIMONIALS "We are so incredibly blessed with Open Heart Meditation - the truth that we've learnt and discovered for ourselves; the lovely community; and what it is doing for our soul permanently. So grateful for this huge blessing. Thank you all for what is coming to my first year with you smiley lot." Ronnie Chua, Perth Australia "Isn't it lovely when you intend to pray for something and immediately feel the love pour down like a bucket of water..Then your heart remembers that the love is everywhere and so you feel like you're swimming in it instead..Now you can't even remember what you were going to pray about because the only 2 words left are 'thank you'" Yalda, Perth, Australia "Before learning about the heart, when I prayed to True Source, it felt flat, and I was never sure if my prayers were heard. I remember how I prayed only when I had problems in my life, or because at school or at church a bunch of us were being told to pray together. Words came out of me without any feeling; I was simply reading prayer lines. Now it is completely different: prayers have become beautiful, and I am able to go into a deep state of connection. I feel how I am communicating with True Source-how my prayers reach up to True Source, Lovingly listening, and are accepted with the beauty of Love." Sunny Tjandrakesuma, Perth, Australia

Yet many teams still treat code signing as an afterthought: painful to set up, difficult to automate, and even harder to make developer-friendly. This session shows that it doesn’t have to be that way. In this deeply technical, demo-driven talk, we’ll walk through how to implement automated artifact code signing using SigStore and Smallstep PKI, integrated directly into GitHub Actions. You’ll see how to transform code signing from a security bottleneck into a frictionless part of your CI/CD pipeline; one that developers barely notice, but auditors and CISOs absolutely love. ## **Location** 📍 Atlassian Melbourne Queens & Collins Building, Level 20, 100 Queen Street, Melbourne VIC 3000 ## **Agenda ⏰** * 5:30 - Food is served * 6:15 - Session start * 7:30 - Post-event networking \-\-\- Note: Please complete the event confirmation form: [https://forms.gle/5P1kfDSRtbtKze9AA](https://forms.gle/5P1kfDSRtbtKze9AA)

NLP Practitioner 2024

Hi there, you are very lucky. If you're interested in growing yourself, or your skills as a human being, we have some incredible training available for you in ways never seen before here in Brisbane. This is going to save you a lot of time and you're going to be able to do this far more easily than those before you. Normally the options to do NLP is either online or fly to Sydney/Melbourne. But now, you can do it here. Better still, instead of trying to do it all in one hit and forgetting much of it, we do weekly sessions so you can implement and allow your brain to do its magic better. We do this late on Wednesday nights so you learn and get some uninterrupted time to develop yourself. This is going to fit into your calendar with ease. What is NLP: 'Neuro Linguistic Programming' was discovered in the 70's and is still being developed. So so so much training, personal development, leadership development, coaching, is done utilizing much of what the NLP people discovered in the 70's. Chances are, you've been exposed to it, without even knowing. NLP empowers, enables and teaches us to better understand the way our brain (neuro) responds to the words and world around us. Much like a computer, we use a language (linguistic) to code it all. Then we consciously and unconsciously have repetition and preferences (programming). NLP has been defined as the “users manual for your mind” or "The users manual for minds". Studying NLP gives us insights into how our thinking patterns can affect every aspect of our lives. NLP gives us strategies for observing human behaviour in ANYONE and replicating or modifying the strategies. Essential for becoming excellent at ANYTHING. Sadly, every mega-corporation in the world already studied NLP, hired NLP consultants and are still doing it but to benefit their profit margins not you. They are using it to sell our kids 'Happy Meals', or 'a Mars a day, helps you work, rest and play'. If you think Coca Cola or a beer is refreshing you've had your brain programmed. Thankfully, we can modify that! Personally, I was always curious why so many people buy books on making money, lottery tickets or gambled yet so few became financially free. Curious why so many people wanted to be fitter, or healthier but struggled. And at one point, I went from a long term relationship to single and friendless and got transferred to Brisbane. I was an emotional wreck, afraid to talk to the opposite sex or even make friends in a new city. Yet NLP changed ALL this. It made everything possible. It also enables me, to support those I care about in new ways. Do you really want to be someone that can get struck with fear, anxiety, self-sabotage, procrastination? No. Let's educate ourselves and take control. The Next Course & The Offer Today: Ran out of room with meetup!!!! http://motivatecommunity.com/nlptraininginbrisbane/ MARKETING FLYER HERE: https://1drv.ms/b/s!ArgfsJvN8d2-gv80F-BGrtN7GzBWaw?e=7tU82l
