The Unknown Masterpiece
Photo: Jeff Kubina
The Unknown Masterpiece of Balzac's title is a painting of a great whore, Catherine Lescault, "whom men called 'La Belle Noiseuse." And a young painter named Nicholas Poussin, who would become one of the great masters of the 17th century, is willing to whore his lover, Gillette in order to achieve the greatness that will come from seeing it. The painting is the work of one Frenhofer, a wealthy student of the great Mabuse who "had sacrificed the greater part of his fortune to enable Mabuse to indulge in riotous extravagance, and in return Mabuse bequeathed to him the secret of relief, the power of giving to his figures the wonderful life, the flower of Nature, the eternal despair of art…" Esthetic versions of the Faustian bargain are everyone in Balzac's short story along with a dizzying dialectic concerning both the whoring of souls for genius and also art's rendezvous with reality. "My painting is no painting," says Frenhofer. "it is a sentiment, a passion. She was born in my studio; there she must dwell in maiden solitude…Have we Rafael's model, Ariosto's Angelica, Dante's Beatrice? Nay, only their form and semblance. But this picture, locked away above in my studio, is an exception in our art. It's not a canvas, it is a woman--a woman with whom I talk. I share her thoughts, her feelings, her laughter." Finally, Frenhofer relents and Poussin is urged to live up to his end of the bargain. "The flower of love soon fades, but the flower of art is immortal," he is advised. When they finally enter the studio to see the great masterpiece Frenhofer comments, 'There is such depth in that canvas, the atmosphere is so true that you cannot distinguish it from the air that surrounds us. Where is art? Art has vanished, it is invisible." Balzac's story treats the search for greatness as a perversion, with art itself as a kind of paraphilia and the coup de grace is that the sacrifice, by the great and the obscure at the temple of art, is all an illusion. The Unknown Masterpiece, alas, is like the emperor's new clothes. It doesn't exist.

Commentariolum Petitionis
In one section of the Commentariolum Petitionis or "Little Handbook on Electioneering," published in the May/June Foreign Affairs ("Campaign Tips From Cicero," Foreign Affairs, May/June 2012), Quintus Tullius Cicero gives his brother, the great orator Cicero, who was running for consul, the following advice. "If you break a promise, the outcome is uncertain and the number of people affected is small. But if you refuse to make a promise, the result is certain and produces immediate anger in a large number of voters." Naturally the Commentariolum, emanating from the first century B.C., anticipates Machiavelli's The Prince which appeared over 1500 years later, but the section in question does for politics what Bergson and Proust did for involuntary memory. It's the Proustian Madeleine of politics since it nails the fundamental duplicity that's at the heart of all political behavior. "Promise them anything, but give them Arpege," was an old advertising slogan. But what Quintus is counseling his brother Marcus on is the need for hope. Hope is the be all and end all of political success and it trumps honesty. Honest Abe is what they called Lincoln. However, the fact is that truth and politics seldom go hand and hand. Politics, as Quintus makes quite clear, is a dirty business. "The most important part of your campaign is to bring hope to people and a feeling of goodwill toward you." Foreign Affairs was canny in publishing the Cicero piece since as we approach another election, it's apparent little has changed in politics since Roman times. In fact, an accompanying commentary by the great political tactician and Democratic Party pundit, James Carville, is entitled "Plus Ca Change." The question is how do the Darwinian verities Quintus suggests translate into human progress and the betterment of the polity? If a politician tells the truth--like those who argue for austerity in the EEC--he or she is unlikely to get elected.

The New Elitists
In a Times Op-Ed piece back in July ("The New Elitists," NYT, 7/7/12), Shamus Khan, an assistant professor of sociology at Columbia, makes the argument that today's elite class is characterized not by the snobbery of the past with its deference to high culture but by a love of hi and lo—the title, in fact, of a show that was curated by The New Yorker's Adam Gopnik at MOMA back in l990. "Today's elites are not 'highbrow snobs,'" Khan argues. "They are 'cultural omnivores'…if elites have a culture today, it is a culture of individual self-cultivation…Yet there is something pernicious about this self-presentation. The narrative of openness and talent obscures the bitter truth of the American experience. Talents are costly to develop." Rather than being a simple reversal of the past, Khan's argument is more complicated than it seems and is predicated on the notion of sensibility. Ortega Y Gasset wrote two seminal essays on this very subject, The Revolt of the Masses and The Dehumanization of Art back in the l930's. Esthetic avant gardes protect their integrity through the creation of their own language and in essence are a reaction to populism. Similarly the modern omnivore defies the predictability and order of ideas like the canon. In likelihood he or she admires deconstructionist thinkers like Foucault and Derrida who regard assertions of a hierarchy of taste, of good and bad, as being culture bound. They are believers in the irrational who carry a copy of Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil in their back pockets. The creation of their own private languages makes them all the harder to fathom. Another sociologist, Thorstein Veblen, coined the term "conspicuous consumption, in his The Theory of the Leisure Class. Today's conspicuous consumers are less likely to travel around in the Cadillac Escalade as in a l957 Isetta. They are more likely to be found eating in a diner than in Masa, one of the expensive restaurants that Khan cites, and they would be loathe to buy their partners the big diamonds that Richard Burton once conferred on Liz Taylor. Their sensibilities are like the appetite in Kafka's A Hunger Artist, something that's become so rarefied, it's almost invisible.

The tribes of Nina Raine's play of the same name are Jews, intellectuals, those who are born deaf, those who are going deaf, those who sign and those who reads lips and for that matter those who do both. Christopher (Jeff Still) is a sixty year old writer who would definitely to quote Woody Allen "never join a club that would have him as a member." For starters he's an elitist who's repudiated his membership in the club of Jews who emanate from the North of England. He's the resident intellectual shock jock of Raine's play, who calls the deaf the "muslims of the handicapped world." His son Billy (Russell Harvard), who was born deaf, meets Sylvia (Susan Pourfar), a young woman who is going deaf, and is an advocate of signing. Christopher is opposed to signing and the self-imposed separation that it creates. Christopher is an assimilationist both in his attitude towards Judaism and to handicaps, self-imposed or otherwise. He's wary of the meeting of the minds that occurs when people are united by virtue of their frailties. The fact that Sylvia and Billy eventually become separated by their varying states of deafness seems to be a good argument for his point, though the playwright is constantly adding themes and variations based on the subtleties of the conditions she describes. For instance one of the things Sylvia is afraid of losing is her sense of linguistic irony—something which Billy never shared due to his congenital deafness. Tribes is not about deafness. It's really about language and communication. Christopher's other son, Daniel (Will Brill) who is stutterer, is writing his dissertation on language, his sister Ruth (Gayle Rankin) is studying opera (music heard and unheard is another subplot) and Christopher himself is learning Chinese. But the subplot about signing is, in fact, a very controversial issue in the deaf community today, as is evidenced by the conflicts that have plagued Gallaudet University, the world renowned institution geared to the needs of the deaf. As if to underscore the issue Tribes projects sections of dialogue on the walls of the Barrow Street Theater like translations say from a Berliner Ensemble production one might encounter at BAM. A scene in which the partially deaf Sylvia tries to read the aggressive misanthropy on the lips of the family she's just been introduced to (which ends with Sylvia playing a piano piece she herself cannot hear) demonstrates the dizzying way in which Raine embellishes the many and often overlapping themes of her play.

The Queen of Versailles
Before the crash in 2008 David Siegel was the king of the time share business. "Everyone wants to be rich; the next best thing is to feel rich," was his mantra. He sold glamour to people who were used to staying in motels. You purchased a mortgage not on a house, but on an "as if existence," comprised of say one week a year in a Westgate resort. Lauren Greenfield's film The Queen of Versailles recounts the building of the largest house in the United States. In place of their 26,000 foot residence in Orlando, Siegel and his third wife Jackie, a one time model, used the proceeds from Siegel's fabulously profitable business to build a 90,000 foot structure which would be larger than The White House which would include such toys as a baseball field, a bowling alley and a children's theatre. Come to think of it, this doesn't sound all that outrageous considering the ubiquity of home entertainment centers with their oversized flat screened televisions and bazaar of bizarre electronic gadgets. But then the market fell and it was plain that Siegel merely epitomized the condition of his customers, who like him were purchasing their dreams with cheap loans from banks. In one segment from the pre-crash era the pitch is explained. Most of the modest clientele are mooches who visit the properties to get freebees. They're the kind of people who have to be made to feel they have gotten over on you. So it's a vicious cycle with the con man and the conned all becoming dupes of something out of their control, an economy in which the cards would turn out to be stocked against them. In his The Theory of the Leisure Class, the sociologist Thorstein Veblen coined the term "conspicuous consumption." But what Greenfield documents is something far more extreme than mere materialism. It's like realpolitik. Nations and individuals tend to be selfish, but then there's real evil, which is fundamentally inexplicable. David and Jackie Siegel are not just conspicuous consumers, their massive fall is fueled by an almost addictive drive to excess, resulting from a "trickle down" economics that was poisoned from the bottom up.

Thank You for the Light
Photograph: Carl van Vechten
The New Yorker recently ran an F. Scott Fitzgerald short story entitled "Thank You For the Light, " which had originally been rejected in l936. One wonders how many times, if any, The New Yorker has ever run a previously rejected piece. Fitzgerald was a famous writer, albeit on the decline, when he submitted the story. So the rejection wasn't simply a matter of turning down one of the thousands of submissions by unknown writers that pour into the magazine every year. In a piece about The New Yorker's publication of the story, The Times' Clyde Haberman quoted the original rejection letter as saying that the story was "altogether out of the question" and "so curious and so unlike the kind of thing we associate with him, and really too fantastic." ("Dismissed As 'too fantastic,' a Fitzgerald Short Story Gets Another Chance," NYT, 8/9/12) According to Haberman, the story had come to light when Fitzgerald's grandchildren were going through papers that were to be auctioned off by Sotheby's. It's easy to see why the story may have been rejected. It was a bit ahead of its time, dealing with a corset and girdle saleswoman named Mrs. Hanson who we'd now say had a smoking problem. In the story her problem is NOT stopping smoking (by contrast, Zeno Cosini, the hero or anti-hero of Italo Svevo's Confessions of Zeno is trying to stop), but starting since she meets with censure when she tries to smoke in some of the venues where she goes to sell her goods. In desperation she ducks into a church where she ends up getting "a light" from the Madonna. The ending is a bit cutesy with the double entendre centering around spiritual illumination and lighting up, but obsession and compulsion are definitely the terrain Fitzgerald is dealing with. Fitzgerald would have been even more advanced if he dealt with the subject as something his character sought to free herself from. Despite the modernist elements in the story, Fitzgerald was still of a generation that defended their compulsions.

Studies in Iconology
That the nude photos of Prince Harry cavorting in Las Vegas are causing an international scandal is predictable. The ancillary matter of the British tabloids, who usually gobble up such material about the royal family, showing uncharacteristic restraint, is equally predictable considering the phone hacking scandal. The fact that the 27 year old Harry is a helicopter pilot in the RAF and that the whole event takes place in Las Vegas might also recall yet another scandal, Tailhook. But let's try to view the incident out of context. Kierkegaard identifies three stages of life experience: the esthetic, the ethical and the religious. Let's look at this from the esthetic point of view, as if we were walking through the Greek and Roman wing in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In that august institution there are numerous naked statues many of which have their penises lopped off and one of the things that art historians and lovers of art enjoy doing is analyzing the postures, in an attempt to understand them as ideal representations of beauty. Shortly before the outbreak of World War II, the German art historian Erwin Panofsky wrote a book called Studies in Iconology: Humanist Themes in the Art of the Renaissance. There is something almost Renaissance about the rosy cheeked Harry and his naked escort tantalizingly hidden behind the shot of the prince, demurely covering his genitalia. It's an almost Adamic pose. Eve has already eaten her apple as it were and Harry while still brazen enough to pose for a cell phone camera is now undergoing a self inflicted penectomy similar to the ones performed on those ancient Greek statues in the Met.

You take the train from Trieste Centrale to Venezia Santa Lucia. Two Russian girls, one a flaming red head with turquoise eyes, talk in their native tongue right up to the stop before the end of the line, Venezia Mestre. The train is filled with Japanese and an foursome of Indians. Santa Lucia is pandemonium in the sweltering heat of the afternoon and you wonder what has brought you to this mecca of tourism, though as the sun sets you are humbled. You achieve a rare feeling of commonality in the worship of undeniable beauty—the same beauty that attracted Ruskin, Turner, Thomas Mann and later Peggy Guggenheim whose art is now housed in the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. There you see Picasso's "On the Beach" (l937), one of Adolph Gottlieb's "Floating" pictographs from l945 and Francis Bacon's "Study for Chimpanzee" together with rooms full of paintings by the likes of Jackson Pollock and Max Ernst. You walk along Zattere overlooking the Canale della Giudecca looking for gelato. You feel you're on the set of some forthcoming Woody Allen movie, the third of the trilogy beginning with Midnight in Paris. Is this real? Goethe also inhabited Venice, along with a couple from Miami who ask if you know any decent restaurants as you climb on the Vaporetto direction Lido, departing Salute.

Slovenia Journal VIII:No Man Is An Island
Photograph by Hallie Cohen
There is only one island in Slovenia. It sits in the middle of Lake Bled. On the island is a Catholic church, the Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Mary, which is filled with sacrilege. Firstly the gilded altar with its crucifix is surrounded by two acolytes who are not saints, the German Emperor Henry II and his wife. The bishops of Brixen had facilitated a shidduck between Henry and the pope and in 1011, Henry essentially gave the bishops Slovenia as a gesture of gratitude. Then there's s fresco of the circumcision of Christ, an odd image to find in a Catholic church. Finally there's the underlying sense that the church is a walking and talking fertility rite with its magic bell that couples ring three times before they're wed, pointing to the pre-Christian culture that existed on the site of a house of worship that exhibits images of the Virgin Mary within while displaying a sculpture of Mary Magdalene on the lawn outside. The island is approached by an old flat bottomed Pletna boat. It requires the skills of an ancien oarsman expertly steering a craft that can easily go out of control and that brings spiritual travelers to a destination filled with sometimes conflicting symbols.

Slovenia Journal VII: Bled
Bled was the site of one of Marshall Tito's summer residences. Tito is looked back on with fondness by some Slovenians to the extent that he was the twentieth century iteration of the benevolent despot, a Frederick the Great of the cold war who adhered to the pleasure principle. From a political point of view, he was an irredentist who created a form of nationalism that brought formerly warring Bosnians, Serbs, Croats, Montenegrans and Slovenians together under one banner. It was not jingoism, but an attempt to subsume the parts to the whole for the sake of peace. Unfortunately, his legacy did not live on. The mansion on the enchanting lake, which faces a castle carved into a dramatic rock cliff, is now the Vila Bled and if you are lucky you will be assigned one of the rooms formerly occupied by party apparachniks whose large conference rooms adjacent to living quarters are still decorated in the functional socialist realist interior design--the one thing that Yugoslavian Communists truly had in common with their Soviet bedfellows. Slovenia is a thriving country today. It was immune to most of the conflicts which affected Bosnia and Croatia in the 90's. Bled is not bleeding by any means. Lake Bled's beaches are packed with vacationing Slovenians, Italians and even some American tourists in the summer and the onion domes on the churches and the crowds of sun worshippers reflect the rich mixture of Bavarian, Slavic, and Austro-Hungarian influences that characterize the region.

Slovenia Journal VI: A Tale of Two Cities
Drawing by Hallie Cohen of Kranjska Gora Church
Start from Tarcenta in Northern Italy and then ride through the Rezia mountains 20 or so kilometers through the Tanamea Pass to the Slovenian town of Zoga (translation "saw mill"). Krn Mountain on the Slovenian side is where Hemingway worked as an ambulance driver in the First World War. It served as the backdrop for A Farewell to Arms. The terrain is awe inspiring and dramatic. As you approach Slovenia, onion domes emerge out of nowhere in the mountains. But what is even more dramatic besides the beaut, punctuated by the turquoise waters of the Soca River, is how a relatively short distance defines two radically different worlds. Look down from a point in the mountains at night into the Italian and Slovenian sides. One is a mass of connected lights (Italy), the other (Slovenia) is characterized by huge areas of darkness separated by sporadic light. One conveys the feeling of Western Europe, the other is a world made up of Celtic, Slavic, Bavarian and Tyrolian influences resulting from successive waves of invasion. Parts of Slovenia belonged to both Italy and Austria- Hungary and were fought over by both of these powers, among others, throughout varying periods of history (which explains why cemeteries memorializing the dead of many countries are ubiquitous throughout the countryside). Riding through the steep mountain passes and small villages, one can't help feeling this is the terrain where myths and legends were and perhaps are still being made. As you drive past a town like Zoga, you get the feeling of watching a folk tale spreading out before your eyes.

According to the Business Insider, these are the top countries in the world for Michelin star restaurants.
Plating and presentation are taken into consideration when Michelin stars are awarded.
The Michelin Star award is the most sought-after honor of the restaurant world. It is regarded as the hallmark of fine dining. The award recognizes the best restaurants in terms of settings, quality, and service.
The Michelin Star system has its humble beginnings as a guide created to show French drivers where the local amenities such as restaurants were. The stars are organized into three categories, one star meaning "worth a stop," two stars meaning "worth a detour," and three stars meaning "worth a special trip." Michelin guide has inspectors who visit the restaurants but remain anonymous and grade restaurants according to the quality of service and quantity of food.
Brussels is one of the top foodie destinations in Europe. It is the third most starred European city by Michelin with 26 restaurants holding at least one star. However, the city has no three-star restaurants. One of its best Michelin-starred restaurants include Sea Grill for sea and fish food, making it one of the restaurants for such fare in Belgium. Bon Bon restaurant offers diners the option of a three-course Manu du Marche or a five-course Manu Impro inspired by table request. Other starred restaurants include La Truffe Noire, Comme Chez Soi, and Le Chalet de la Foret.
Chicago is not only known for the large population but also as a leisure travel destination. The hospitality industry in the city has been growing to meet the high demand from the locals and travelers. Although Chicago has hundreds of restaurants, 35 were awarded at least one Michelin star. Two restaurants, Grace and Alinea, retained their three-star statuses while five restaurants were awarded two stars. A record 19 restaurants received one star. Alinea has been awarded three stars since 2011 because of its innovation. Two Michelin-star restaurants include Acadia, 42 Grams, Oriole, Sixteen, and True.
San Francisco will never disappoint when it comes to dining. With a total of 46 Michelin-starred restaurants, the city has no shortage of fine dining options. The Bay area has six three-star restaurants, same as New York City. Quince restaurant was upgraded from a two-star to a three-star restaurant in 2017 while Saison, Benu, Meadowood, Manresa, and The French Laundry maintained their accolades. Along with six three-star restaurants, there are seven two-star, and several one-star restaurants including newbie. The Michelin-starred restaurants in San Francisco are popular for refined modern cuisine in an innovative restaurant setting. Two of the city's restaurants, All Spice, and Ame, were dropped out of the Michelin star list. The two have since closed down.
London hosts the best restaurants in the UK. It is a major foodie destination not only in the country but also in Europe. London is the second most Michelin Starred city in Europe with more than 60 starred restaurants. The city also hosts some of the award-winning chefs like Gordon Ramsey and Michael Roux Jr. Two of London's restaurants, Alain Ducasse and Restaurant Gordon Ramsey were awarded three Michelin stars. There were 8 new one-star entries in 2017 with only one restaurant, Raby Hunt, gaining a second star. The new entries include Pidgin, The Ninth, The Ritz, Trinity, and Ellory among other restaurants.
Hong Kong is a huge financial hub with high demand for upscale dining and cuisine. Over sixty restaurants in the city hold at least one Michelin star. Six of the Hong Kong's restaurants have been awarded three stars for their exceptional cuisine. These restaurants include Bo Innovation, Lung King Heen, Sushi Shikon, T'ang Court, and Bombana. 14 restaurants were awarded two stars while 44 were awarded one star. Some of the new entries included Kashiwaya, Ta Vie, Beefbar, and Epure. Hong Kong had over 49 different cuisines listed in the Michelin guide. The Japanese cuisine has also become popular in the city with more Japanese restaurants opening.
New York is one of the food capitals of the world. It has the most Michelin star restaurants in the United States. It has 77 starred restaurants out of which six have been awarded the top accolade of three stars. The six restaurants include Eleven Madison Park, Table at Brooklyn, Jean-Georges, and Per Se. There are 10 two-star restaurants in New York with Aska as the new entry while 62 one-star restaurants were awarded one star. Some of the new one-star restaurants in New York include Agern, Contra, Faro, Gunter Seeger, Kanoyama, La Sirena, and Nix.
Japan is rapidly becoming a top food destination in the world with three of its cities making it to the top five food destinations. Osaka is home to several top quality restaurants that offer first class fare. The city has 91 Michelin-starred restaurants. Three of the restaurants have been awarded the top accolade of three stars while 20 and 68 restaurants have been awarded two stars and one star respectively. The three Michelin star restaurants in Osaka include Taian, Fujiya, and Koryu. Other top Michelin starred restaurants include Hajime, Takama, Asai, and Pierre. The restaurants not only offer top quality food but also cool settings and services that make guests want to come back again and again.
Paris is the top food destination in Europe. It is considered the continent's foodie capital with hundreds of restaurants and eateries. Paris restaurants offer a wide variety of cuisines due to its diversity. The city is home to 100 Michelin-starred restaurants with ten of the restaurants receiving the highest accolade of three stars. The latest upgrade to the three-star category is the Cheval Blac restaurant whose chef, Yannick Alleno, holds three Michelin stars placing him in the esteemed group of "Six Star Chefs." Paris also boasts 14 two-star restaurants and 76 one-star restaurants.
Kyoto is a historical center of culture, religion, and cuisine. It is not only known for some of the oldest shrines in the world but also as a home to some of the oldest eateries in the world. Kyoto boasts of over 100 Michelin starred restaurants offering food that ranges from traditional Japanese to modern fusion style. The city has 7 three-starred restaurants including Hyotei that has been in existence since the 17th century and Nakamura which dates back to the Edo Period. 25 restaurants were awarded two stars in 2017 while 64 were awarded one star.
Tokyo is considered the food capital of the world. For much of the last decade, the city has held the world record for the highest number of Michelin-starred restaurants, beating great cities such as Paris, London, and New York. Tokyo has more than 225 restaurants holding at least one Michelin star. Twelve restaurants in the city including Ginza Kojyu, Ishikawa, Joel Robuchon, and Azabu Yukimura have been awarded three Michelin stars. 54 restaurants boast of two stars while 160 have one Michelin star each. One of the three-star restaurants, Usuki Fugu Yamadaya, specializes in fugu, one of the deadliest foods if not well prepared.


If the name of this pokie seems familiar, it's because Microgaming have lifted it from Phileas Fogg, the star of Jules Verne's' Around The World In 80 Days, a famous book where the hero travels the globe to win a bet. The hero of this 3-reel, 5 payline pokie, subtitled International Globe Trotter, is a smartly dressed pig who oversees the action including jackpot wins and a bonus game which has multiple winning features.
An unusual format sees players having the option to enter the bonus round after any winning spin, while a 2000x jackpot and fun style are some added attractions to this pig in a pokie game.
The main screen is a pretty complicated looking affair, with a lot packed on to it. We have our gentleman pig dressed in the finest Victorian style and standing next to Big Ben in London, while dotted around the game we see a variety of destinations, such as the Taj Mahal, Pyramids, Statue of Liberty, Colosseum and a Japanese palace.
Overlaying these images is some game information, such as nudge options and a payout schedule that lists how much each winning combination is worth. Oh, and buried somewhere in there are the 3 reels framed in an elaborate scroll design and having payline indicators to show where each of the 5 lines run to and from.
Players are able to wager from 0.10 to 10.00 on a spin of the reels, which is a fairly low maximum, while they can also activate any number of the lines, although the more in play, the more frequent the winning spins will be.
Landing a line of 3 cherry symbols across any active line is worth 1x the bet, while the lemons pay 2x and oranges are at 4x. Other traditional Poker machine symbols are the Bar which is worth 6x and the red 7's that pay 8x when they fill a line.
The other symbols are all related to the game and add some variety to what we see on the reels, not to mention some cash to the players when they land in the right places. There's a pocket watch that's worth 10x the stake, some luggage that pays 20x, a globe that is valued at 50x and land the hot air balloon across a line to win 250x. The jackpot symbol is Phileas Hog himself, who pays out 2000x the bet when he fills a line.
After any winning spin, players have a choice to either collect the win or gamble to double the prize just won. If they choose to gamble, then win or lose, the bonus game commences, where players will see a wheel of fortune with a variety of features awarded to them when it stops spinning.
Many of these have game-related names, so they could win the Globetrotter, where anytime the symbol of a mummy appears on the reels they win a prize, or there's the Truffle Shuffle, where they need to click on multiplier values.
Other features include Round The World, which is a skill stop game where players need to click at the right time to win the biggest bonuses, and Greedy Pig, in which different winning options are presented and players just need to pick the one they want.
In the Makin' Bacon round, players are given a guaranteed winning spin, which is probably the simplest bonus of the lot, but whichever one is spun up, the odds of getting a prize are pretty good.
Players need to look out for the wheel coming to rest on a mystery section however, as these can be losers and send them straight back to the main game.
Nudges and Holds are also available, and these can be used to get extra winning combinations, with players able to move reels up and down a bit, or keep them in position while the others spin. Nudges can also be gambled, repeated or banked until the next spin.
A Pig's Ear or Snout to Complain About?
This pokie has more bonus features than just about any on the market today. The fact that they can be played after every winning spin, on top of the payouts from landing the right symbols is pretty amazing, but obviously, Microgaming still have to keep an edge, so those wins can be a little less frequent and not all bonus rounds are guaranteed to pay anything out.
But anyone looking for an action-packed game that's presented in a fun style should definitely try to bring home the bacon by spinning the reels of Phileas Hog.

Home / Internet Filter / Conroy letter #2
Conroy letter #2
internet filter
I wrote to Senator Conroy (Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy) and got a form letter reply. This basically ignored my objections and spent three pages explaining how wonderful the filter was going to be.
I have written again, so maybe this time I will get a sensible response.
Senator Stephen Conroy
Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy
Level 4, 4 Treasury Place
Thank you for your form letter response to my inquiry. I understand that you are very busy, with the skiing in Aspen
and other sporting events to attend, however your reply does not address the concerns that I raised.
In this letter you will find your errors reproduced, keeping them confined so that they can do no further damage to the
public discourse. My corrections with references will follow below.
I am aware that the proposal for ISP filtering has attracted some criticism from those, like yourself,
who are concerned that it will lead to censorship of the internet. However, the Australian
Government has no plans to stop adults from viewing material that is currently legal, if they wish to
view such material.
You are profoundly misinformed.
On October 20th 2008 under questioning from Senator Scott Ludlam in the Senate, Senator Stephen Conroy and his
advisors repeatedly asserted 1 that the blacklist which will be used by the government's proposed censorship system
already exists, and is the ACMA "Prohibited Content" list.
In the Technical Testing Framework attached to the Expression of Interest for the government's proposed
(and delayed) "live trials", repeated reference is made to the ACMA Prohibited Content list as the URL list for
the mandatory "first tier" blacklist 2.
Reasonable readers may therefore conclude that the ACMA Prohibited Content list constitutes the list of material
which the government wishes to prevent adults from viewing.
You claim that the ACMA Prohibited Content list is a list of illegal material.
The legislation, on the other hand, does not. Schedule 7 of the Broadcasting Services Act 3 defines "Prohibited
Content" in section 20, which reveals that it consists of material classified by the Classification Board as X18+, R18+,
and some commercial MA15+ audio and video content; and material which has been Refused Classification.
Under Commonwealth law, each and every one of those categories is legal for Australians to read and view, unless
and until a judicial finding is made to establish that specific content is child abuse material or child pornography
material 4.
X18+ material is legal to sell in the ACT and NT and legal to purchase throughout Australia. R18+ material is
available for sale in shops and exhibited in public cinemas everywhere in Australia. MA15+ material is shown on
free-to-air television throughout Australia. Even RC material is legal for a private owner to possess everywhere except
Western Australia, and legal to read and view via the Internet everywhere except Western Australia and the Northern
Territory, unless it is specifically found to be child pornography/abuse/exploitation according to Commonwealth or
State law.
This makes your contention that the government "has no plans to stop adults from viewing material that is currently
legal" completely false. There is plenty of legal material on the ACMA Prohibited Content list, even though that is the
list of material that your own form letter says your party wishes to censor.
The Government has committed $125.8 million over the next four years to a comprehensive range
of cyber-safety measures, including law enforcement, filtering and education. Measures include:
· Australian Federal Police (AFP) Child Protection Operations Team – funding to detect and
investigate online child sex exploitation;
The previous government's final budget included a $51.8m budget increase for the AFP's Online Child Sexual
Exploitation Team (OCSET), along with provision for 90 new staff by 2010.
The budget was in response to complaints by the AFP that OCSET was so resource-constrained that it was unable to
take on new cases, and was instead referring them to State police forces. The AFP's team of specialist online child
abuse experts was unable to investigate online child abuse5.
After your Prime Minister's "razor gang" had done their work, the Rudd Government's first budget reduced the
coalition's $51.8m allocation to $49m, and pushed the planned staff increases back a year to 2011 6.
I fail to understand how law enforcement budget cuts and staff delays can be trumpeted as a key feature of the ALP's
cyber safety policy.
A key part of the Government's plan to make the internet a safer place for children is the introduction of ISP
level filtering. The policy reflects our community's growing belief that ISPs should take some responsibility
for enabling the blocking of illegal material on the internet. Filtering would cover illegal and prohibited
content using an expanded ACMA blacklist of prohibited sites, which includes images of the sexual abuse of
Please indicate where your estimate of "our community's growing belief" came from. I can point to any number of
sources which suggest that my community has no such belief, as shown by their stupefied reaction to this repugnant
policy. In case you are out of touch with my community, a brief non-exhaustive list might be helpful:
* On Tuesday 6 January 2009 The Advertiser published an article 7 on the matter. The poll attached to that article
attained over 2500 responses in less than 24 hours, and 95% of them were against the government's censorship
* Derryn Hinch received similar results when he polled his listeners on 29 October 2008 8: 82% against the
* Channel 7's Sunrise programme polled their viewers 9: 80% against the government,
* The Opposition is against the policy 10,
* Senator Nick Xenophon is "not sympathetic to the Government's proposal" 11,
* Senator Cory Bernardi opposes it 12,
* Derryn Hinch opposes it13,
* Holly Doel-Mackaway from Save the Children, the world's largest children's rights agency; and James
McDougal from the National Children's and Youth Law Centre oppose it 14.
To the best of my knowledge, the groundswell of community support you refer to is completely fabricated, a manifest
falsehood propagated to a voter over your signature, consistent with Harvard University's finding 15
that governments tend to overstate internet content problems in a cloud of "moral panic".
An article16 on ABC's web site last year asked, "Do you honestly believe that Australian parents are so uniquely
incompetent that we, unlike literally every other Western democracy on the planet, need to go down the ALP's
proposed path to protect our own children? After spending 30 years proving that our nation can successfully raise
children in an environment of ubiquitous access to uncensored online services, are you able to explain how profoundly
Australian parents must have failed to justify this radical proposal?"
Or, to put it more succinctly: Why do you hate parents?
Consideration is being given to more sophisticated filtering techniques for those individual families who wish
to exclude additional online content in their own homes.
You announced your intention to proceed with this policy 17 during one of your first official engagements as Minister
in December 2007. You clearly hadn't had time to examine the Australian internet industry before you made these
controversial statements, because if you had you would have seen that the industry had already provided "more
sophisticated filtering techniques" for families who want them, without imposing them on families who don't, via the
Internet Industry Association's (IIA) Family Friendly ISP 18 scheme.
This costs the taxpayer a grand total of $0 per annum, and solves all of the government's stated problems.
The System Administrators' Guild of Australia (SAGE-AU) has proposed a policy alternative 19 for the government
which would see funding provided to compliant ISPs to enable them to offer "filtered" services at prices equivalent to
regular services, following the observation that "filtered" ISPs tend to be slower and more expensive than their
competition. This funding would come from the $44.5m allocated by the government to its "clean feed" policy.
The government has given this sensible policy alternative short shrift by completely ignoring it, prompting SAGE-AU
to respond with an open letter 20 damning the government's proposals on technical and public policy grounds.
The Government wants to ensure that Australian parents can access a 'clean feed' internet service. This will be informed by the technology adopted in countries such as the United Kingdom, France, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Canada where ISP filtering, predominantly of child pornography, has been successfully introduced without affecting internet performance to a noticeable level.
* UK: Optional system, currently under substantial controversy for making poor decisions about blacklisted content
and imposing sufficient performance and usability degradation upon Wikipedia to make it useless for most UK
citizens during the week of Dec 6 2008 21. The UK's IWF is now in the humiliating position of having identified what
they claim is illegal child pornography, but knowingly and deliberately failing to blacklist it because doing so would
cause too much disruption to the UK internet. Meanwhile, publicity surrounding the fiasco attracted over ten million
viewers to the so-called "child pornography" on Wikipedia in one weekend.
* France: No government-mandated censorship system, although courts have ordered removals of nazi memorabilia
from eBay auctions.
* Sweden: Optional system22. Embroiled in substantial controversy last year when it was revealed that police were
lobbying to add BitTorrent trackers to their blacklist, in contravention of Swedish law.
* Norway: Optional DNS blacklisting system 23. Note that DNS blacklisting is inherently overbroad, destroying access
to entire sites due to one "bad" URL. Norwegian citizens can escape the resulting annoyances by choosing to not be
censored.
* Finland: Voluntary system. Came under fire in 2007 when it blocked the website of the World Wide Web
Consortium as child pornography by mistake, and in 2005 when an anti-censorship campaigner's website was added
to the blacklist of censored sites after an activist reproduced a copy of the Government's blacklist 24.
* Canada: Optional system 25. The FAQ website for the service specifically states that it's a voluntary measure and that
individual ISPs may have a variety of reasons for not participating. 7 ISPs in all of Canada participate.
Your form letter is wrong about every single one of its examples. None of the countries used as examples have
mandatory government-controlled ISP censorship systems, and nor do any other Western democracies. Where filtering
exists at all, it invariably allows customers to choose whether or not they want to be censored. The only governments
which remove that choice are regimes which value totalitarian control more than freedom of speech, such as China,
Saudi Arabia and Iran.
It is clear that the ALP hopes Australians will believe there is some useful comparison to be made between the
countries it lists as examples and the proposals being formulated for Australia. There can be no useful comparison
until the Australian proposal recognizes that any systems implemented here must be optional, both for ISPs and end-
users — Just like in the UK, France, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Canada.
The Government's ISP filtering policy is being developed through an informed and considered approach,
including industry consultation and close examination of overseas models to assess their suitability for
On 23 December 2008 Asher Moses from The Sydney Morning Herald reported, in a front-page story 26, that the
Minister had suppressed a report his own department had commissioned from the IIA which said that his mandatory
censorship scheme could not possibly work.
Is that the ALP's "informed and considered approach" to "industry consultation"? Is it right for this government to
"consult" with industry then suppress inconvenient responses? Are you endorsing this approach by failing to speak out
about it?
ACMA recently completed an extensive laboratory trial of available ISP filtering technology. The trial looked
specifically at the effect of a range of filter products on network performance, effectiveness in identifying and
blocking illegal and inappropriate content, scope to filter non-web traffic, and the ability to customise the
filter to the requirements of different end-users.
The lab trial report 27 concluded by pointing out that performance of censorship products tends to be inversely
proportional to accuracy: Tested censorship systems which don't slow down the internet don't work very well, systems
which have low overblocking error rates cause performance degradations of 87%. The report also mentioned that none
of the products tested in the trial were capable of reliably distinguishing between legal and illegal material, even under
controlled laboratory conditions with vendor support.
By not mentioning any of this, you are misleading by omission, and endorsing the lie with your own
signature.
Of course, perhaps that's all of very little import, because the you have disavowed the laboratory trial
report anyway 28. Why is the ALP's form letter bringing it up if it doesn't care about the results?
The laboratory trial indicated that ISP filtering products have developed in their effectiveness since they were
last assessed in 2005. The Government will now proceed with a 'live' pilot in the second half of 2008 which
will provide valuable information on the effectiveness and efficiency of filters installed in a 'real world' ISP
network. An Expression of Interest will be released in due course seeking the participation of ISPs in the
The "live" pilot did not proceed in the second half of 2008. The entire process has been a disaster zone 29, with the you
announcing on the commencement day of your promised 24 December 2008 trial that it would instead proceed in mid
January 200930.
The Expression of Interest documentation included such gems as:
* No requirement to test IPv6, a technology which will become an absolute requirement for the continued
operation of the internet from late 2010,
* No requirement to test faster than 12 Mbit/sec, even though the Minister's NBN project forbids speeds
slower than 12 Mbit/sec, and
* Despite its status as a "live trial", some of the testing is to be simulated, and should not involve real users.
Somehow we are expected to learn something about real-world deployments from those results.
