Who Is Steven Whybrow?
Steven Whybrow has one of the broadest practices at the ACT Bar.
He has been instructed to represent plaintiffs, defendants, businesses, government clients, and insurance companies in legal matters. He appears in numerous courts and tribunals, including the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal, the High Court, and every court.
SMH:— John Ruddick (@JohnRuddick2) October 4, 2022
'Steven Whybrow, acting for Lehrmann, said the national uproar over the allegations was the epitome of the adage 'never let the truth get in the way of a good story,” but that this was a story “whose time had come'.'https://t.co/N0wsg6Rfsc
Over 12 years, Steve worked as a prosecutor in the ACT Magistrates and Supreme Courts. Whybrow has represented the Crown as prosecuting counsel in over 100 sentences and appeals and almost 40 Supreme Court cases.
He has participated in various inquests and inquiries as supporting counsel.
He has taken the assault case of Bruce Lehrmann, which is trending on the social media platform. On Wednesday, Barrister Steven Whybrow appeared in court alongside other attorneys, including Katrina Musgrove.
After entering the case late, Mr. Whybrow requested that the trial begin on June 27 and stated that he had a lot of information to present. He also stated that warrants must be issued.
Chief Justice Lucy McCallum agreed to hold the trial on the day requested by Mr. Whybrow, observing that Shane Drumgold SC, the director of public prosecutions for the ACT, thought it would last no longer than four weeks.
He has entered a not guilty plea to a charge of engaging in inappropriate activity without consent, disputing claims that he assaulted Ms. Higgins in March 2019 in Parliament House.
When the two were working for the minister in the Morrison administration, the alleged activity is claimed to have occurred in Linda Reynolds' office. The trial for Queenslander Bruce Lehrmann got scheduled to start this week, but it got postponed when one of his former attorneys left the case for "reasons beyond anyone's control."

I love this fresh and satisfying salad and have had it as a side salad and as as a main dish for lunch (keeps well for at least 2 days)! Simple, inexpensive, quick to put together and it uses ingredients that I always have on hand. The cumin gives it a nice Moroccan twist and because I love cumin, I did add an extra half teaspoon and I might try a pinch of cinnamon next time. I also used green onion instead of the white and will try it with a red onion next time. This one is a keeper!-29 Jul 2014
I am the submitter of this recipe, and want to thank Buckwheat Queen for giving the recipe a wonderful face, and a great review..-18 Oct 2014
by Buckwheat Queen
Perfect summer salad. I made this using dried chickpeas that I soaked overnight then boiled in a pressure cooker for 15 minutes instead of canned. It had a tex-mex taste to it, perhaps the cumin and parsley gave it that twang. :-) I tasted it immediately after mixing all the ingredients and then let it sit in the fridge for an hour before serving. It is definitely much more flavourful after melding. Its flavour is not overbearing in any way. I served this with a light quiche type savoury pie and it was a perfect compliment. I will serve it on a bed of spinach leaves the next time! Thank you Manella for sharing.-15 Jul 2014
Moroccan Carrot Chickpea Salad
This post may contain affiliate links. Please check our privacy and disclosure policy.
Moroccan carrot chickpea salad is loaded with delicious good-for-you ingredients. This recipe calls for carrots, chickpeas, walnuts, parsley, and dates. The honey-lemon dressing ties this delicious salad together in minutes!
A freshy fresh, almost exotic, salad that doesn’t call for any exotic ingredients. Don’t you just love that? It’s like taking a mini vacay without having to take your tuchus off the couch. I am ab-sol-ute-ly in LOVE with this Moroccan carrot chickpea salad.
So about a week and a half ago, my world changed. And no, it’s not a big, life altering change that most people expect when they hear ‘my world changed’. It’s a change in the most tastiest of ways. My friend Fariha (pronounced Far-ee-ha) sent me a batch of her addictive Moroccan carrot chickpea salad, that had me instantly falling in love before I had even swallowed my first bite. Boy, I fell hard!
So obvi, I did what any good food blogger does, I bugged her until she agreed to giving me the recipe. I tied her to a chair and threatened to kidnap her first born (she doesn’t even have one yet) if she didn’t squeeze it out. But that doesn’t really count, right? I kid! No Farihas were harmed in the making of this salad.
I love it when a salad calls for only a few simple ingredients and produces the maximum flavor impact. The ingredient list for this moroccan carrot chickpea salad is pretty simple and straightforward.
And the honey-lemon dressing is quick and easy to come together.
For the dressing all you need is a little bit of cumin powder, extra virgin olive oil, the juice of a lemon, honey, salt, and the smallest pinch of chili powder. Toss is all in a jar that has a lid and give it a good shake.
You probably have most of these ingredients at home already. The salad portion only calls for one ingredient that isn’t really a staple in most homes. Dates. If you want to give this salad a try but don’t have them at home, raisins or dried cranberries are another option. But I definitely urge you to give it a try with dates at least once! Like I said, it changed my world!
The best part is that most of these ingredients don’t require much prep work. So you’re looking at a salad that literally comes together in 10 minutes. Yup, that’s it!
Moroccan carrot chickpea salad is ideal to make for a boxed lunch, barbecue parties, picnics, luncheons, and pretty much any other gatherings you can think of. Maybe not breakfast. That would be a wittle wierd.
I serve this moroccan salad with my Lebanese Meat pies (sfeehas) for dinner or lunch. The mellow flavors of the salad compliment the bold flavorful meat pies perfectly!

Carrot, Sweetcorn, and Chickpea Salad
It’s often on our menu! The combination of sweetcorn, carrots, and chickpeas, makes a wonderful salad!
This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my disclosure policy.
By the way, it’s super easy to make and goes really nicely with almost anything. The best part about this salad is that my hubby, who has Celiac disease, can safely eat it and he loves it.
So if you’re a gluten-free-er this is another great recipe to add variety to what can seem a very limited and boring menu!
(I’m not a doctor and ingredients will vary with brands so as always if you’re a celiac sufferer CHECK THE INGREDIENTS on your can of chickpeas and your bag of corn!
Also, I’m working on great, simple, recipes that are celiac friendly so follow my Facebook page for the best ones. And because I love quick and simple, I’m aiming at creating very basic but delicious recipes that will require very few ingredients.
So, back to the awesome recipe…
*There’s a secret that makes this salad so full of flavor and more-ish!*
And it’s super simple! Paying attention?
Lightly fry (separately to each other) the chickpeas and the sweet corn.
This brings out the flavor of both and the reason I do it separately is to keep the flavors from mixing so that with every bite of salad there is a delicious medley of three different flavors.
Cool fresh carrot, warm buttery sweetcorn, and then the smooth creaminess of the chickpeas. SO so good. Just saying.

Chickpea Edamame Salad
If you&rsquore looking for a recipe to make Aldi&rsquos chickpea salad at home then you&rsquore in the right place! This homemade recipe tastes EXACTLY like the real deal.
You can of course save yourself a little time by picking up the salad at Aldis, but you&rsquoll save some money and be able to make a big batch if you make this yourself.
Aldi&rsquos Chickpea Salad Ingredients
The main ingredients in this chickpea edamame salad (or dip depending on how you want to enjoy this) are:
Edamame, chickpeas, carrots, dried cranberries, and bell peppers (red and green).
This crazy combination of flavors really works! But what brings everything together is the dressing. A mix of oil, vinegar, fresh lemon juice and herbs.
The herby dressing marinates the ingredients and brings all the flavors together beautifully. The best part is, you don&rsquot need to let this marinate for any set amount of time. You can enjoy this salad immediately after you make it or chill it for later. It stores well in the fridge.
A Healthy Dip Appetizer, Lunch or Vegetarian Side Dish
You&rsquore probably going to want to make a big batch of this power salad because you can enjoy it multiple ways. You can: enjoy this as a dip with tortilla chips, add this medley to your salad, serve it as a side dish with dinner, or pack it up for a healthy lunch.
This salad keeps well thanks to the preserving powers of vinegar and oil. You can store this in the fridge for up to a week.
This healthy chickpea salad recipe couldn&rsquot be easier!
Okay, well it actually could be easier. I mean you could just buy it at Aldi&rsquos but you only get a tiny package and it&rsquos pretty expensive. And the nearest Aldi&rsquos might be a bit of a drive away. So, homemade it is for me anyway!
The hardest part might be collecting all the herbs to make up the dressing. If you don&rsquot collect herbs like it&rsquos your job (like me!) then you could instead use a bottled Italian dressing and then add cumin. You could try other dressings too if you want to mix it up and give this recipe a re-fresh after you&rsquove had it a few times.
You can use frozen, canned or fresh edamame.
There&rsquos not a big difference in taste no matter which type you choose to go with. So, go for what&rsquos most convenient for you. If you can only find frozen edamame in shells, just cook the edamame and then pop it out of the shells. It only takes a few extra minutes.
What&rsquos the best way to store this chickpea edamame salad?
I prefer to store this salad, and almost all my dips and leftovers, in wide-mouth Mason jars. They are inexpensive and hold up well. You don&rsquot need to worry about plastic chemicals (when re-heating certain dishes) seeping into your food, ruining the container or messing with the flavor of your recipe. I do use plastic dishwasher-safe lids since the metal ones tend to get rusty after awhile.

How To Make an Easy Carrot Salad
This recipe is super simple and easy. I have been using Jamie Olivers recipe (from his 30minute meals cookbook) or ages now. I thought this was a great place to share it as I make it SO often. Therefore it is a great salad recipe for meal prep days to keep in the fridge for the week.
I have my own adapted method since I can almost make this with my eyes closed. Simply peel and grate your carrots and combine it with grated ginger, finely sliced fresh chilli, fresh coriander and roasted almond slivers. Finally add a handful of toasted almonds to finish off the dish. Fresh lemon juice is a must and I also like to add a few drops of red wine vinegar.

For me, one of the highlights of being a designer is sharing. A few weeks ago Revision Path founder Maurice Cherry reached out to see if I was interested in doing an interview for his Podcast. What an honor! Revision Path highlights Black designers and developers. The interviews cover a range of topics, from how they got their start to how they envision the future of design. Why is this important? There has been more discussion about encouraging diversity in the design and web fields. This should not start when we enter the work force, but in grade school. In a previous post, I discussed my experiences talking with middle school and high school students about opportunities in the creative job market and how it can have a positive impact on their current studies. Progress is being made, but there is still work to be done.
I love the diversity amongst the different designers. They come from all over and work in a range of disciplines, educational paths and institutions, and also have an even broader range of interests outside of design. My absolute favorite interviews are Ced Funches and Emory Douglas. If you have a minute, check out the other interviews and show Revision Path some love by rating the Podcast!

Once we arrived, our friends, the Wagoners, told us about their upcoming trip to Marrakech, Morocco. They found a really cheap deal on Ryanair from Seville, Spain to Marrakech, which sounded amazing.
We also found a pretty good deal on Ryanair from Seville to Marrakech and a road trip idea was born. Seville is a 3 hour drive from where we’re staying in Almuñécar which is a bit far but reasonable. There was also many cool things to do in Seville so we thought we’d combine both trips into one. Unfortunately, Ryanair only flies to Marrakech 2x a week so we were stuck with either going for 2 nights only or going for 6 nights which seemed too long. We went with the 2 night option which worked out about right.
We arrived in Marrakech about 9pm on a Saturday night.
We hired a shuttle service to take us to our riad because there was no way we’d find it on our own. A riad is a traditional Moroccan house usually with an interior courtyard. We stayed at Riad Zanzibar and loved how unique and traditional it was.
Our room had a loft area for the kids and a humongous tub.
We ate breakfast on the open air terrace on the 3rd floor that consisted of Moroccan pancakes, croissants, yogurt, bread, honey, coffee and Moroccan mint tea.
We wandered to the main square that evening and then hit the hay because we had to get up early the next day.
Sunday morning we headed out on our ATV excursion. Afterwards, it was time for a nice lunch. I got a beef tagine dish which is a Moroccan specialty and is meat and vegetables cooked in a tagine pot.
Sunday afternoon we headed to the main square, Jemaa el-Fna, to see the snake charmers, monkeys, and general chaos that is Marrakech. Then it was time to wander around the souks, spice market and other little shops.
Monday was our last day and was spent walking, walking and walking some more through the streets and alleyways that make up the Medina. We also spent the day trying to find (and negotiate on) the perfect genie lamp for Beckett.
During the day we stopped for more Moroccan mint tea to take a little break. We loved the Moroccan mint tea and drank it many times over the 2 days. It’s so sweet but sooooooo good.
All in all, it was a great 2 days in Marrakech and a definite highlight of our year abroad!

The latest installment of the hugely famous Apple iPads was launched yesterday. This gadget is termed as the new iPad. The popularity of this tablet PC has risen in such a way that the very existence of smartphones is being threatened.
Yes, a latest study reports that people are embracing the new iPad with great enthusiasm. This in turn is leading to a sharp decline in smartphone preference and usage among people. Astonishingly, this trend has been observed on the very first day of the new iPad launch. Experts say that if this is the trend on the very first day, then the future is certainly predictable. Experts are also of the opinion that at the speed in which the latest generation of iPad is gaining popularity, people all over the world will soon forget their smartphones & are likely to switch over to iPads & iPhones.
People generally prefer smartphones for the rich functionality they provide. This functionality comes at a high cost. Now, with the new Apple iPad providing all the expected functionality at even a lesser cost than smartphones, people will surely prefer the former over the latter. The study also reports that for calling purposes, the respondents didn't even mind buying an iPhone. Thus, we can see that the latest gadgets that are being launched are taking the people across the world by storm. If this trend persists then people cannot find smartphones at all in future.
This can also be attributed to the over dependance on technology by people even for tasks that do not require the usage of technology. By observing all these we can say that “Technology is the biggest enemy of technology”.

She wowed the judges with her skills on the dance floor, coming second only to chef and My Kitchen Rules judge Manu, but it was Lara Bingle's beauty look that caught our eye on Dancing With the Stars last night. Managing to avoid the potential pitfalls that can go hand-in-hand with the genre of the show — think too-tan tans, super-spidery lash lines and the like — Lara looked gorgeous as she took to the floor to perform the Viennese Waltz. We spoke to Max May, her bestie and makeup artist, who was behind her "glamorous and movie star-ish" look.
He told us that he wanted Lara to look as "modern as possible," in keeping with her usual effortless style. As Max says, "Her style of hair and makeup is so heavily recognised, it's important to keep that feeling and personality there." This meant Max "rough-dried Lara’s hair using bumble and bumble thickening spray ($50)," then tonged it, using L’Oreal Elnett hairspray ($9.95) to hold the wave. After Lara's hair cooled, Max backcombed it to add some texture and volume, before brushing it out, finishing up with Wella Ocean Sprizz sea salt spray ($23.50) "to give a worn, slightly slept-in look."
Find out about Lara's makeup look . . .The focus of Lara's makeup palette was her eyes. Max used NARS Galapagos eyeshadow ($48) — a golden, chocolate brown — on Lara's lids and then highlighted the eyes with MAC's Nylon shadow ($33), before applying a full set of MAC individual lashes ($18) and finishing with a nude, slightly pastel pink lipstick, which Max says is "very much a LB trademark."
Stockists: L'Oreal (1300 659 359); Wella (1300 885 002).

Displaced children in northwestern Syria – Anas Alkharboutli / dpa
MADRID, Feb. 13 (EUROPE PRESS) –
The number of minors living in war zones has fallen in the last year, but instead the number of those residing in the middle of a conflict of so-called high intensity has increased to 149 million, according to Save the Children, who has warned of double vulnerability in the case of girls.
The report figures at 415 million children in war zones, a decrease of five million in just one year, but at the same time warns that the worst crimes that can be committed against children continue to rise. Thus, 149 million children live in areas of high intensity conflict, in which there are more than a thousand deaths a year related to fighting.
Save the Children believes that boys have never been so exposed to violence before, to the point that in 2018 at least 12,125 girls and boys were killed or injured by conflict-related violence, 13 percent more than the year precedents The number of attacks on schools and hospitals also increased, specifically 32 percent, to 1,892 cases, according to UN data.
The director general of Save the Children Spain, Andrés Conde, has lamented that “the current wars are wars against children” and has labeled “chilling” that “the world remains motionless.” “We demand that world leaders stop looking the other way and take effective action,” he added.
The head of the NGO has warned that “since 2005, there have been at least 95,000 deaths or child mutilations, tens of thousands of children have been kidnapped and millions of them have been violated their access to education and care sanitary by the bombing of schools and hospitals. ”
The Save the Children report includes a gender approach to assess the extent to which girls suffer more from certain abuses. Between 2005 and the end of 2018, there were almost 20,000 verified cases of sexual violence against minors – the figure would be higher – of which 87 percent correspond to girls.
“There are harassment and rapes, so we are the most affected in the conflicts and wars,” explains Briska, who fled northeastern Syria with her five younger brothers and arrived at a camp in Iraqi Kurdistan. “I still consider myself a girl, so how could I assume the role of father and mother? Even in a safe place, such as the camp, we are afraid,” says this 22-year-old girl.
Men, on the other hand, are more exposed to murders, mutilations, kidnappings and recruitment by armed forces or groups by spending more time away from home. Of the more than 2,500 children abducted by armed groups in 2018, 80 percent were boys.
Amir fled Iraq because of the war in Iraq, along with his mother and brothers, and ended up in a town in northeastern Syria. He suffered the impact of artillery fire and, as his mother says, “now he sometimes gets tired, cries and is in pain.” Now, his life again in Iraqi territory is another: “Since we arrived at the camp, and he saw that there are no more bombings around, he has returned to school and says he feels better.”

Zamboanga Peninsula Regional Peace and Order Council (RPOC) chaired by Zamboanga City Mayor Beng Climaco has ordered the barangay chairmen in the region to submit quarterly a list of foreigners and non-residents in their respective villages.
This was contained in a resolution patterned after the one adopted by the provincial government of Sarangani.
“The list of foreigners including photocopy of their passports will be submitted quarterly to the police,” the city government of Zamboanga said, quoting RPOC 9.
The regional council admitted that the presence of foreign nationals and overstaying in the barangays and their possible participation in fighting alongside the terror groups is one of the major issues and concerns in the region.
The four threat groups in the region are the Abu Sayyaf Group with ISIS sympathizers, Communist Terror Group, rouge Moro National Liberation Front/Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MNLF/MILF) members, criminal gangs and other lawless elements.
