Portraits of Grandmas and Their Cuisine From Around the World. EmailEmail Italian photographer Gabriele Galimberti realized that trying to not overeat over at your grandma’s place has got to be a universal thing, and set out to explore what grandmothers cook around the world.
His Delicatessen With Love photo series portray grandmothers from 58 different countries, each posing right before they start cooking and then presenting their signature dish in the end.

The culture of “time macho”—a relentless competition to work harder, stay later, pull more all-nighters, travel around the world and bill the extra hours that the international date line affords you—remains astonishingly prevalent among professionals today.
Nothing captures the belief that more time equals more value better than the cult of billable hours afflicting large law firms across the country and providing exactly the wrong incentives for employees who hope to integrate work and family. Yet even in industries that don’t explicitly reward sheer quantity of hours spent on the job, the pressure to arrive early, stay late, and be available, always, for in-person meetings at 11 a.m. on Saturdays can be intense. Indeed, by some measures, the problem has gotten worse over time: a study by the Center for American Progress reports that nationwide, the share of all professionals—women and men—working more than 50 hours a week has increased since the late 1970s.

I am currently doing my Masters degree in Socio Informatics through the MIH Media Lab in Stellenbosch. The focus of my study is mobile technology adoption in Africa. I’m passionate about my continent and I am inspired by the possibilities of technology solving a myriad of problems for people living in developing countries. Prior to furthering my academic career I had my own marketing consultancy, which specialised in strategic marketing solutions.

What is your favourite motivational quote? Help Women Take the Stage - Herminia Ibarra. By Herminia Ibarra | 4:45 PM February 13, 2012 Sheryl Sandberg, COO of Facebook, has been speaking out a lot lately about subtle dynamics that hold women back from reaching senior roles in business.
Her TED talk and Barnard commencement speech went viral. Lean in, she says to women, take your place at the table, seize the stage. I never suspected she had a personal message for me, but sitting in on a recent panel on “Women as the Way Forward” that included Sandberg, I learned otherwise. When the panel moderator, NYT’s Nicholas Kristof, opened for questions from the audience, my husband whispered to me, “Go, ask a question.” Why didn’t I speak up? Defensively, I told myself, I’m tired, the happy victim of too many Davos panels and parties. But my silence nagged me.
