Luba Miteva - Games Tester
Luba Miteva gets paid for what others do in their leisure time – play video games.
Luba is one of nine game software testers working for Wellington developers Sidhe. "I feel pretty lucky; some days I have to pinch myself."
Spotting the bugs and making sure the game works
But testing a game involves more than just playing it. Luba ensures all the games' features and graphics are doing exactly what they're designed to do.
"You need an eye for detail. Some bugs are big and easily spotted, but others are harder to see.
"We are usually working off a test plan and checking one particular thing at a time. There's internal tracking software that we use and every time you find something wrong, or not where it's supposed to be, you have to log the faults consistently and clearly."
It's a great job but there are deadlines to meet
Luba, who has a Diploma in Software Development, loves her job, though it often involves working late. "Everything we do is on a really tight schedule so some weeks there are crazy amounts of overtime. But I don't mind because it's an awesome job."
What's hot
- Developing and testing new games.
- Working in a team of creative-minded people.
What's not
- Working overtime to meet deadlines.
- Starting out on a less creative aspect of the job, such as game testing.
Maru Nihoniho talks about working as a game developer - 3.03 mins. (Video courtesy of Te Puni Kōkiri - for more videos go to www.maorifuturemakers.com)
I make games across all genres from action adventure to puzzle games for PlayStation to mobile phone games. I've always had an interest in computer games right from when I was young and I've always enjoyed being creative so I've being a bit arty, I enjoyed technical drawing at school and so it wasn't until later on in life when I realised I could combine the two and start my own games company. I thought I would just do it and then learn as I go along and so yeah it's been a big learning curve for me.
I put myself through a multi-media course and that was so I could get the basic knowledge of how to design websites, how to edit video and audio and also some 3D modelling and animation. A lot of people think that games are for teenage boys but statistics show that actually half the game players are female and they're a bit older than teenagers so it's quite a balanced market. The other misconception is that I have a lot of fun while I'm working and that I play games all day, which I actually play games for research, you know if we're developing a certain game then I'll research it. However my game playing days have become limited now that I started making them, I guess I transferred the fun of playing games into making them.
One of the big challenges I have is finding the staff I need to make the games, there is a shortage of programmers and art people to come on board and join the team. The skills you need to come into the industry depend on what you're going to do with in the team. If you're wanting to come and be a game artist then the best thing to do would be through school take on art subjects such as art, technical drawing will help a lot and then follow that through into tertiary education. My programmers have come to me because they've had a strong interest in maths and science and they've followed that through high school on through to tertiary education. Some of them have come through doing a specialised game development course and others have come out of university after doing a Bachelor in Computer Science.
The opportunity and the potential is huge, I think that being in New Zealand we are in a unique position and we've got our own stories to tell. We don't have to follow formats from overseas, we can actually come up with our own unique ideas whether they're cultural, or whether they're just New Zealand themed. With Māori I think we have that extra layer of uniqueness.
Come and work in the games industry because it's creative, it's exciting, it's changing, the technology changes, it offers new challenges all the time, it doesn't get boring, what we do evolves constantly and because of that it makes it fun.

Number of game developers growing rapidly
The New Zealand game development industry is growing rapidly - industry income increased by 86% between March 2011 and 2012. Consequently, the number of game developers more than doubled between 2010 and 2012 to 448, according to an annual survey run by the NZ Game Developers Association.
About half the employers in the survey also reported a shortage of appropriately skilled programmers and game designers.
Demand for game developers likely to continue

- demand for games on cellphones and other mobile computer devices is growing
- many social media sites are offering a growing number of games for their users.
Portfolios and networking improve your chances of getting a job
The New Zealand Game Developers Association (NZGDA) recommends you build up a portfolio of paid or voluntary game development work that you have done outside of your coursework.
Look on the NZGDA news page and forums and on individual members websites for notices of vacancies. Events such as the Auckland Game Developers Meetups and AnimFX also provide valuable networking opportunities.
- Auckland Game Developers Meetups- information on meeting groups
- AnimFX website - information about conferences for game developers

The Mission Santa Barbara
There are a lot of different ways you can take in the Mission Santa Barbara but no matter what, you should make the time to check it out. You could go the historical route and pay for admission to the little self-guided tour on the Mission's history, or pack a picnic and sit out on the lawn or in the rose garden in front of the mission and just take in the sights from the front. Or, if you are very religious, you might want to attend a service at the Mission where services are still regularly held. We were there on a Sunday morning and did not take in a service but did have the opportunity to hear the congregation singing hymns as we strolled through the beautiful back garden area. It was very serene. The Mission is really beautiful.
I Madonnari Festival Chalk Painting at the Mission
Street painting, using chalk as the medium, is an Italian tradition dating to the 16th century. The Madonna was the most reproduced artwork. In Italy, the tradition lives on in the village of Grazie di Curtatone.
If you happen to be in town don't miss the I Modonnari. On the plaza of the old Santa Barbara Mission "I Madonnari" Italian Street Painting Festival takes place every year in May.
Live music, an authentic Italian market, a choice of Italian cuisine and crafts are on sale.

Mission Santa Barbara
Santa Barbara has one of the largest Spanish missions on California. Unlike some others, made solely of adobe, this one is partially built of stone and has pilasters on the front. Supposedly, it was built to resemble an ancient Roman structure and it certainly has something of that appearance, a strong contrast to the other missions. It also has a sizable old cemetery.
The mission was founded in 1786 and the building dates back to the early 1800s.

The Queen of Missions
The tenth California mission founded in 1786. A history of building and re-building after numerous calamities. Earthquake in 1812. Tower toppled in 1832. Another earthquake in 1925. But today the mission stands as both a monument to the Spanish roots of California history and as a working church where services are held each day.

The Queen of the Missions
Mission Santa Barbara is considered the Queen of the Missions of all the missions in California. This large mission is definitely one of the more popular attractions of Santa Barbara. It was founded in 1786 by Father Junipero Serra. The exterior of the mission is pretty beautiful and ancient. The mission still serves as a church for many. It is located north of the downtown area. There are a lot of parking spaces outside of the mission so don't worry about parking difficulties.

The Mission
The mission in Santa Barbara was founded in 1786 by Fransiscan monks. It is one of the 21 Spanish missions in Southern California, and arguable the most beautiful and best preserved (it's called the "Queen of the Missions"). Who said Americans don't have a history?

Santa Barbara Mission
Some people dig this sort of thing. And as far as missions go, it is well-preserved and nice, with beautiful rose gardens and a park that people hang out in, worship the sun (oooops, is that blasphemy?) or throw Frisbee.
I am just not big on paying money to see a church that enslaved the local indigenous people, forced hard labor on them, made them convert to Christinanity or else be killed. And if any Chumash, the local Native American Tribe, tried to escape, they were hunted down with dogs and either mauled or shot. It kind of makes me sick.
And what? They were supposed to be "saved" hmmm… if harboring Nazi's wasn't bad enough. Anyhow, this is not the place to have those discussions.

Well, since the Santa Barbara...
Well, since the Santa Barbara mission is the most photograped mission in the United States (or so I've been told), why not help out in keeping it that way? ;-)
The Santa Barbara mission is one of the oldest on the west coast, and so has historical interest. It is a National Historic landmark, and is known as 'Queen of the missions'. There are exhibits about life at the mission, its history etc, but most of all it's a beautiful building!

The current study builds upon the Diabetes Genetics Initiative of the Broad Institute, Lund University, and Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research, a pioneering study of the genetics of type 2 diabetes that found three new genomic regions influencing type 2 diabetes risk, published in Science last year. That paper included an analysis of serum cholesterol and triglycerides and identified a new genetic signal for triglyceride levels in humans a gene called GCKR. On its own, however, this study lacked power to distinguish other new potential signals from statistical noise. By combining DGI data with that of two other studies, and by extensive replication in additional samples, the current study identifies a total of 18 strong signals, six of which are new. This brings the total for the DGI and its follow-up to seven newly identified variations associated with cholesterol and triglycerides. The DGI was led by David Altshuler, director of the Broad Institutes Program in Medical and Population Genetics, and associate professor at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
Genome-wide association studies are the realization of a long-term effort to understand how human genetic variation impacts health. Built on the Human Genome Project, these studies have been made possible in the last year, driven by the recent completion of the HapMap Project and availability of large-scale research tools. Already, scientists from Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT, as well as other research organizations worldwide, have used the approach to identify genetic differences that influence a variety of disorders, including type 2 diabetes, Crohns disease, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, obesity, age-related macular degeneration, and prostate cancer.

As of today, 94 of a planned 100 holes have been completed to help upgrade indicated and inferred resources to probable reserves and expand current underground resources. Roughly 33,000 metres have been drilled so far.
"We are extremely encouraged with the high grade silver intercepts that we are encountering and the fact that four of the high grade results are just on or well beyond our current resource boundary," said president J. Scott Drever.
"Gold values and interval widths are also substantial which bodes well for the addition of resources in our upcoming Resource and Reserve revisions."
In this latest batch of results, core holes SE-12-73 and 110 intercepted further bonanza grades of gold, the company said, with greater than 34 grams per tonne (g/t), and silver with greater than 1,000 g/t.
Results ranged from 1.0 metre at 4.47 g/t gold and 1,465 g/t silver to 1.0 metre at 5.07 g/t gold and 2,840 g/t silver.
Hole SE-12-62, results of which were partially announced last week, posted a final intercept of 1.7 metres at 42.59 g/t gold and 1,460 g/t silver, within 5.2 metres at 15.34 g/t gold and 546.2 g/t silver.
The company said the program continues to be successful, with "several recent holes" finding multiple bonanza grade intercepts, and the new El Cholugo high grade zone. All the holes from the program will be used in the upcoming pre-feasibility study for the Santa Elena expansion project, expected in the first quarter.
The latest intercepts were up to 200 metres beyond the boundary of the current resource, with the expansion area around 300 metres long, by 150 metres high - open to the east and at depth.
Results for the next series of holes will be released once compilation of results is complete, the company said. Three drills are currently on site to complete the program in early February, with further expansion drilling to take place in the first quarter.
A three year expansion plan is underway to double metals production at the mine, while exploration programs are also advancing the definition of the large polymetallic deposit at the company's La Joya property in Mexico.
The Vancouver-based company said in November that profit and revenues increased in its third quarter, with record silver production allowing it to raise its annual forecast for the year.

Wincanton Town boss wants unbeaten team to target league's top spots
Posted: November 15, 2012|
PAUL Down wants his Wincanton Town team to add promotion contenders to their reputation as one of the hardest teams to beat in the Magna Dorset Premier League.
The Toolstation Western League hopefuls have enjoyed a flying start to the campaign, echoing achievements in 2011-12 by not losing any of their opening 11 games.
Hamworthy Rec are the only side to enjoy success against Wincanton, but required extra time and then a penalty shootout to sink their Somerset rivals in the MDPL Cup.
Manager Down said beating their achievements of last season and satisfying the club's thirst for promotion was top priority.
"We have a good start in the league and we are more than happy at the moment," he said. "We have two home games coming up (against Swanage Town and Herstone and Cranborne) and hopefully another two wins can put us in a good position for Christmas.
"We are ticking along nicely and hope to get some players back soon. We have coped well and a couple of reserve players have done really well. The squad is looking strong for the New Year.
"We are a hard to beat side and that is encouraging. We are running along similar lines to last season.
"We have got to convert that into reaching a higher league for next season.
"It will be nice to get into the top three and challenge to win the league and a cup. Promotion is always number one because we are trying very hard to get into the Western League and that is the main aim. For the long term that is the way forward. This season on the playing side we have got to improve on last year."
Dave O'Hare's tenth and 11th goals of the season guided Wincanton to their eighth MDPL win, as they fought past Wareham Rangers.
Down said: "There are a lot of heavy pitches around at the minute and ours is no different. It was more of a battling game.
"The first half was quite even and ended 0-0 but in the second half we stepped it up and got the goals. At the end we could have had three or four and we played really well. It was a really good win on a tricky pitch."
FOUR goals were not enough to earn Ilminster Town more than a point as they drew an eight-goal thriller with St George Easton in Gordano in the Somerset County League Premier Division.
Castle Cary lost to Frome Collegians by the odd goal in five in Division One, whilst Creech North Curry triumphed 2-0 at Combe St Nicholas in Division Two West.

2002 BMW 325xi Problems
Valve cover gasket leaks are common after 60,000 miles. Symptoms will include oil drips under the vehicle and burning oil smell from the engine compartment.
After 60,000 miles, the front outer half-shaft boots tend to tear and leak grease. In most cases, only the boot will have to be replaced; however, if it is not repaired soon enough, the half-shaft may need to be replaced. The front outer boots are put under heavy stress because of their involvement with the suspension when making turns.
The low coolant light may illuminate and/or the engine may overheat as a result of a coolant leak from the water pump. The leaking pump will require replacement and the entire cooling system should be inspected for leaks as it is not uncommon to find multiple leaks on higher mileage vehicles.
Overheating can cause severe engine damage. If the engine begins to overheat it is recommended to stop at the first available location and have your vehicle towed to a repair shop.
2002 BMW 325xi Questions
My 2002 BMW 325xi has over 100,000 miles and is consuming oil at the rate of one quart a week. There is no leak visible. My mechanic says the engine is burning it. What is happening?

2002 BMW 325xi Recalls
In a crash that deploys the driver's front air bag, the inflator of the air bag can rupture, causing metal debris to strike vehicle occupants. Dealers will replace the front driver's air bag module free of charge to correct the concern.
Upon deployment the passenger airbag inflator could rupture, increasing the risk of personal injury. BMW dealers will replace the affected airbag inflator modules to correct this concern.
This limited regional recall is for vehicles currently registered or first sold in Florida, Puerto Rico, Hawaii and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and equipped with Takata-brand air bag inflators. Upon deployment the driver and/or passenger airbag inflator could rupture, increasing the risk of personal injury. BMW dealers will replace the affected airbag inflator modules to correct this concern.
2002 BMW 325xi Reviews
We actually own 2 of these models! One has 170,000 miles and is still a great car! The other still a baby at 60,000! Repairs are expensive...but there is a store in New Hampshire (also available on line) that you can purchase parts and if you are handy at all make a few repairs yourself!
Since I have stopped servicing by the dealer many problems have gone away. I have 93,000. Rolling windows and their repairs is the most annoying problem.
Love the car Unbelievably good in the snow Hate that it needs premium gas Brakes have been a problem Also have replaced two window regulators

The Canary Islands region
La Caleta is an up and coming resort, which is on the fashionable Costa Adeje coast. Just 20 minutes from the airport and a 3 minute drive from the profesional Adeje Golf Course and prestigious Hotel Bahia El Duque. La Caleta has a selection of charming restaurants and shops and yet, is only 10 minutes from the busier resorts of Playa de Las Americas and Los Cristianos.
At the beginning of December 2008 our "local beach" was completed which is at the edge of the village - Although it doesn,t have white sand it it certainly a nice beach...and only a 5 minute walk from the villa !
La Caleta
From La Caleta it is possible to walk along the coastline - all the way to Los Cristianos. Passing Fañabe where there is a lovely stretch of white beach and shops, the marina of Puerto Colon, arriving at Playa Americas and finally getting to the harbour and beach of Los Cristianos. For those that prefer, there is also a very good bus service all along this coastline direct from La Caleta !
Up the road is the local village of Adeje, where there are several local restaurants, shops and often different "fiestas" being celebrated.
Just 5 kilometres from Playa de las Americas, Golf Costa Adeje was created with the ambition of becoming the most important leisure development in the Canary Islands. This excellent 27 hole of course opened in 1998 and has rapidly become one the most popular courses in Tenerife. The views from the course take in the island of La Gomera, the mountain range of Adeje, Playa de la Americas and the sea.

"Absolutely perfect, peaceful, relaxing and great location."
This is the second time we have stayed in this villa and would do so again. Its location is perfect, 50m from the restaurants and the beautiful sea front of the fishing village La Calleta. The villa itself is like home from home with everything you need for the perfect holiday. Outdoor space is second to none, well maintained and cleaned regularly. Small but ideal pool to cool off, great BBQ area, plenty of sunbeds and outdoor dining area, which is all you need in Tenerife. The villa is spacious with 3 good sized bedrooms and 3 bathrooms which is perfect for families....no waiting for the bathroom. Although the villa has 4 or 5 steps up to it, once in the grounds it would be idea for anyone with disabilities, everything then is wheelchair friendly, the main bathroom downstairs has a walk in shower which would be ideal. The people that own this villa are also just 50m away, they are lovely people to deal with and very accommodating, Nothing is too much trouble for them. And people you can trust! Would we go there again? This would alway be our first port of call when visiting Tenerife. I would just like to thank Elaine and Monica for another great holiday.

"Lovely villa, excellent location, very peaceful but close to local amenities"
Villa located very close to local restaurants, but also convenient for local shops. Nearby beach mainly pebbles/shingle, but great for snorkelling. Only 15-20 minutes drive to Playa Las Americas, great place to go, will visit again.

Latinos in Utah call on Hatch to support immigration reform
Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Thirteen years ago, Silvia Salguero needed help.
She was graduating from Park City High School, scholarships in hand, and had been accepted to the University of Utah. She came to Utah in 1995 from Michoacán, Mexico, and set her sights on being the first member of her family to get a college education, despite being in the country illegally.
But when the day came to pay for her first semester of classes, Salguero discovered she didn't qualify for in-state tuition. There was no way she could afford school at a public university.
Salguero reached out to Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, and he listened.
Hatch joined then-Rep. Chris Cannon, R-Utah, in presenting 2001 legislation that would make it possible for Salguero and students like her to pay in-state tuition. The bill failed, but the 2002 Utah Legislature passed HB144, which exempted qualifying students from the out-of-state tuition requirement.
Now, Salguero is asking Hatch, a potential swing vote on the Senate's immigration reform bill, to help her again.
"I encourage all of our Utah senators and representatives to help fix, in a positive, more productive and humane way, the broken immigration system of this great nation, which I call home, and my children call home," Salguero said Wednesday, shaking with emotion even as steadying hands reached out and gripped her arms and shoulders.
She told her story Wednesday to a small group of the Salt Lake Dream Team and others in Salt Lake City's Latino community. They signed letters to be delivered Thursday to Hatch's office and lit candles representing the flicker of hope they are trying to keep burning as the Senate debates the Border Security, Economic Opportunity and Immigration Modernization Act.
Hatch voted Tuesday in favor of advancing the bill out of committee and onto the Senate floor, but he hasn't committed his support for the final vote, saying the bill still needs "improvement."
The bill would create a 13-year path to citizenship for those in country illegally, contingent upon a plan to secure U.S. borders.
Hatch presented a set of amendments for the bill, raising the cap on H-1B worker visas, requiring biometric data collection at 10 major U.S. airports, heightening penalties in prosecution of marijuana grown on public lands, and eliminating the Amerasian Homecoming Act visa program.
Local DREAMers are disappointed that Hatch may withhold support for the bill, even after helping it advance out of committee and saying he feels compassion toward immigrants, Dream Team member Loren Ruiz said.
"We want Sen. Hatch to stand up for Utah families," Ruiz said. "It's time for him to take a stand and lead on immigration reform that keeps families like ours together and reunites families that have been separated."
Following presentations by Salguero and others asking for immigration reform, the group wrote messages in English and Spanish on posters also destined for Hatch.
One poster asked "What is your dream?" prompting one participant to write, "To see my parents retire." Another was labeled, "What opportunities has Utah given you?" A mother in the group answered, "To have a beautiful house, to eat good and live better than in my country."
On a third poster, Salguero and others left messages for families who have been separated through deportation.
"You are always in our thoughts," Salguero wrote in Spanish. "Thanks to you, we feel stronger to fight for our rights."

Apple selects retail store locations in Japan, SoCal

...like they need ANOTHER store in California...
Shibuya would be so much better - they should take over the Starbucks. Although Shibuya is garish, Akihabara is even more so. I can just hear a prerecorded message playing outside the Apple Store - "Ladies and gentleman. We have cameras, camcorders, iPods, computers. Duty free on second floor. Thank you for visiting." Oh the horror.
... and in Tokyo!
Why not Nagoya, where economy thrives more? People are going nuts trying to establish businesses there.
This store will be less than 5 miles from the Grove location. And yes, they do need another SoCal location because the Grove is always packed. The Beverly Center is packed with trendy teenagers and it is always packed as well (esp during the holidays). It's a good location for them to be seen.
In SoCal, we measure distance by minutes, not miles. If it is 5 miles away, it doesn't mean a thing. 5 miles typically means 30 minutes away.
Although I would welcome a store on the western side of Tokyo (closer to my home), Shibuya would be a horrible choice. It's too freaking crowded most of the time, and it's become so bad that older people (WITH MONEY) are starting to avoid that area. (Though I wouldn't mind seeing that Starbucks replaced - worst service I've encountered in Japan.)
Shinjuku would rock, but Yokohama would be an even better choice, as it splits up the areas nicely. The good thing about the Ginza store is that its location in an upscale retail area sort of minimizes the riffraff. (Yes we have that in Japan.) Apple should aim for that, or it will be a madhouse.
And I thought I heard Nagoya would get its own store in a previous announcement - so perhaps maxdecibel will get his wish.
it would match with Apple's stylish approach to technology.
The comment about Shibuya reminds me of Yogi Berra's comment "Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded."
Shinjuku would be fun. They'd need a catchy theme song based on John Brown's Body or some other historic song. Then they'd play on an endless loop all day long.
In SoCal, we measure distance by minutes, not miles. If it is 5 miles away, it doesn't mean a thing. 5 miles typically means 30 minutes away.
Hey umljin (or anyone)..
Would this be the Shibuya mentioned in Arling and Cameron's song 'Tokyo Taxi Robot'?
"Nice song"
California does have the most Apple Stores compared to other states in the US. And for good reason. But I'm begging Apple to open another California store in a greatly overlooked area: the central valley. The Fresno area is home to half a million people, yet all we have to represent Apple is one CompUSA! The closest Apple Store is over 180 miles away. If you're listening Apple, help us out.

Dr. Friedman believes that at the root of almost all emotional problems is unforgiveness (grievances, judgments and attack thoughts)-- towards others, ourselves, our circumstances, God, anyone or everyone. The Forgiveness Solution is an easy to learn, practical and integrative process whereby we learn to shift and release our perceptions, attitudes, images, energy and distressing feelings (anger, guilt, hurt, shame, anxiety, panic, trauma etc) and simultaneously re-empower ourselves by choosing and deciding to forgive. He teaches us many powerful exercises, tools and techniques that show us exactly how to forgive rather than just talking about forgiveness. In The Forgiveness Solution Dr. Friedman introduces us to the new, highly effective healing techniques of Transformational Forgiveness and Energetic Forgiveness. When we forgive we find within ourself the capacity to feel an authentic sense of peace and contentment when thinking about the person or situation we previously perceived as hurting or harming us while giving up the desire for retribution, punishment, or harm. This almost always leads to much greater happiness and joy. The next step in the Forgiveness Solution process is learning to develop positive, compassionate and often loving feelings toward the people and circumstances (including ourselves) that we previously perceived as hurtful. Finally, we learn to interpret -- and then realize -- that these upsetting experiences are opportunities for profound personal and spiritual healing and growth.
Topics: Happiness, Forgiveness, Informative, Tips & Tricks, and Guides
Published: Red Wheel Weiser on Jan 1, 2010
A book designed to help people find healing, growth, and energy through forgiveness of self, others, and circumstances. The book begins with a few psychological tests to determine where one is in terms of forgiveness of self and others and emotional well-being. The author then describes relaxation techniques, affirmations, pressure point therapy, therapy through guided imaging and dialogue, and a few other processes by which one can forgive and transform life. The author places a lot of emphasis on the spiritual realm, and there is value in that. The generic discussion of spirituality and inclusive terminology can get a bit irritating, but the emphasis on taking responsibility, being willing to forgive to get rid of negative energy, emotions, and baggage, and restoration of empathy and compassion through consideration of the perspective of the other are wholly consistent with religious instruction.Few are those who will be entirely open and willing to all the exercises; the reader is likely going to be skeptical of a few or many of the practices, but everyone should be able to find some value in some of the exercises. As a Christian, I can understand how many would be quite suspicious of the focus on energy and spirituality. The one area in which I must take significant exception with the author is the view that all are really innocent, including self and others, when according to the Christian worldview the opposite is true-- all are guilty. None are better than others, none ought to be more or less forgivable than others. While the author may overstate his case regarding the centrality of forgiveness, there should be no argument that forgiveness is a necessary process if we seek contentment, wholeness, and strong relationships with others. We must forgive others if we desire to be forgiven, and this book provides many good suggestions for methods to that end.read more
The premise of The Forgiveness Solution is, "that lurking underneath almost all of the other problems we have there is one core problem: unforgiveness." While I have no evidence to prove or disprove the theory, I'm intrigued by it.The book includes several assessment tests and journaling exercises to help you implement the idea presented in the book. In other words, it's not the kind of book you'll read straight through curled up on the couch. It's more of an active reading, with written assignments to complete to get the full effect.It's hard to assess the overall effectiveness of the book, since it will vary wildly between readers. From an objective standpoint, there's a lot of good information here and it has the potential to help you work through areas in your life where you've been unable or unwilling to forgive someone (including yourself). It gets a little new-agey at times, but that doesn't bother me much.One last observation is the table of contents - it is one of the most detailed I've ever seen, with an entry for every few pages. Perusing it will give you an accurate summary of the book.read more
This book starts out with some good helpful information on forgiveness and the harmful effects on our lives of unforgiveness. i think it overstates the case to say that ALL human negative emotions are in some way caused by unforgiveness. The first chapters are helpful in determining if you do have issues you need to deal with - grudges, anger, lingering abuse problems and gives some good exercises in beginning the process of forgiving past hurts. I found those chapters helpful, but not containing any new insights for me. The remainder of the book got into new age stuff - heavy reliance on affirmtions and techniques that seem way out there. This book might be most helpful for therapists working with patient issues, its hard to imagine the average reader getting into the pressure point techniques described, touching various parts of the face and upper body to get relief (?) from negative emotions. Good start, but beware of the heavy emphasis on affirmations and meditations that seem a bit out there.read more
"Radical forgiveness occurs simply as a consequence of being open to the possibility that everything happens for a reason, and there are no mistakes," writes Philip H. Friedman, Ph.D. in "The Forgiveness Solution."Much of the author's writing is intriguing, and perhaps helpful when the exercises and mantras are carried through as suggested. The ability to forgive oneself and others is vitally important to mental and physical well-being. However, Dr. Friedman's position, that only what he calls "radical forgiveness" as described above, is the means to the end, is untenable.This is a well-written, well-outlined book with good information, all to be considered carefully. I would suggest it could even be inappropriate for certain situations.read more

Lisa Dwan's powerhouse performance of three of Samuel Beckett's late works, directed by Beckett's long-time collaborator Walter Asmus, played to sold-out houses at the Royal Court Theatre in 2014 then went on to tour throughout the UK and US, receiving rave reviews wherever it was presented. In Not I, a disembodied female mouth floats eight feet above the stage, delivering a stream of consciousness monologue spoken, as Beckett directed, at the speed of thought. Footfalls features May, a woman wrapped in tattered clothing, pacing back and forth like a metronome, on a strip of bare landing outside her dying mother's room. In Rockaby, a woman dressed in an evening gown sits in a chair that seems to rock of its own accord. Recounting moments from her past, she slowly withdraws from the world.

This programme is part of the dance series NEXT STEPS. This rebellious piece is a collision between flamenco and contemporary dance. Co-created and conceived by Flamenco superstar Anjelica Scannura and "bad girl" of contemporary dance Malgorzata Nowacka, Bird Bee Bat Attack investigates the essence of being threatened by outside forces and our innate desire to survive. At times unsettling, the choreography is fueled by innovation and raw explosive power performed by Anjelica Scannura, Malgorzata Nowacka, Daniel McArthur and Damian Norman.
Founded in 2000, Art Toronto: Toronto International Art Fair is Canada's only modern and contemporary fine art fair, providing unique access to the Canadian art market. An annual fall event, Art Toronto serves as the galvanizing vehicle for the nation's art world. A popular event attended by art collectors and industry professionals, Art Toronto showcases galleries and is the place to network with a diverse and well connected group of collectors and dealers. Art Toronto presents more than 100 select galleries, complemented with special projects, exhibits, a full VIP program and dynamic cultural offerings.
The Art Gallery of Ontario hosts a major exhibition celebrating the experimental and contemplative works of Joseph Mallord William Turner (1775–1851), a giant of British art. It features more than 50 large-scale paintings and watercolours on loan from the Tate Musum and makes the case that the radical works created in the final 15 years of Turner's career represent a fulfillment of the artist's upward trajectory.
Beginning in 1835 and closing with his last exhibitions at the Royal Academy in 1850, the exhibition sets out to show how one of his most wide-ranging tours of Europe developed in Turner a time of exceptional energy and vigour.
This programme is part of the dance series NEXT STEPS. Christopher House's Echo is a captivating hybrid creation, a new production and a remix of his provocative dance-theatre work Echo's Object (2005). An incisive look at narcissism and the manufacture of the self, the 2005 work was described by The Globe and Mail as "… asking personal questions that we have always privately asked ourselves." Echo (2015) delves deeper into this world, using movement, music and design in an unsettling landscape of dreams, impulses and surprising juxtapositions.
Armband is a new creation by Human Body Expression's founder and director Hanna Kiel, performed by a cast of seven of Toronto's most prominent dance artists. The narrative work follows an intimate community as they navigate their social environment and the effect of strategic choices which weave their way through interactions, manipulations and their desire for favour or influence. A full-length work, Armband explores the implications of power of authority and corruption, and how these archetypes affect both individuals' actions and the greater community.

A veteran Utah Republican senator faces a primary challenge from a young conservative with the backing of the Club for Growth. Sound familiar?
It happened in 2010 with former Sen. Bob Bennett, and it looks increasingly like that the same scenario will play out in 2012, only this time with Sen. Orrin G. Hatch.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz, Utah Republican, says he's seriously considering making a bid for the Utah Republican nomination in 2012, when Mr. Hatch's sixth term expires.
"I'm a definite maybe," said Mr. Chaffetz in a telephone interview with The Washington Times. "I have been thinking about it, and I have increasing clarity about it. I'm definitely leaning toward it."
Mr. Chaffetz said he doesn't plan to announce his decision until after Labor Day, adding that, "Elections are long enough already."
The 44-year-old Mr. Chaffetz may seem like a bit of an upstart - he's serving only his second House term after working previously as Gov. John Huntsman Jr.'s chief of staff - but he's already won plaudits from conservatives as part of the young cadre of budget-cutting fiscal hawks.
Even though nothing's official, Mr. Chaffetz has been all but endorsed by the Club for Growth, which played a crucial role in the defeat of Mr. Bennett in 2010. Club for Growth President Chris Chocola said Wednesday that if Mr. Chaffetz decides to run, he would have "the full support of the Club for Growth PAC and our 55,000 members."
Last year, the Club for Growth spent nearly $200,000 on an anybody-but-Bennett campaign, more than all but one of Mr. Bennett's five primary challengers. Mr. Bennett ultimately finished third in the primary balloting at the Republican state convention.
Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Mike Lee won the Senate seat after defeating businessman Tim Bridgewater in a runoff for the nomination.
"Run, Jason, run!" said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola in a statement."Congressman Chaffetz has been a pro-growth star since entering the House, and hes exactly the type of leader we need in the United States Senate."
Polls have already shown Mr. Hatch, 76, trailing in hypothetical primary matchups against Mr. Chaffetz and Mr. Huntsman, a former ambassador to China and a potential presidential candidate. Utah state Sen. Dan Liljenquist is reportedly weighing a run for the nomination as well.
Mr. Lee has pointedly declined to endorse Mr. Hatch, saying he wants to see the primary process play out. Mr. Hatch received a rough reception in February at the Conservative Political Action Committee meeting, where the crowd heckled him for his support of the federal TARP bailout.
Still, Mr. Hatch isn't going down without a fight. Conservatives have griped for years about the senator's tendency to stray leftward, but Mr. Hatch earned a perfect 100 percent score from the American Conservative Union in 2010, bringing his lifetime rating to 89.7 percent.
Mr. Chaffetz ticked off a list of issues on which he disagrees with Mr. Hatch, including his support for the TARP bailout, the Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae bailout, No Child Left Behind, the individual health-care mandate, and immigration.
"Most of these are causing the problems that we're facing today," said Mr. Chaffetz. "If you want a different result, you're going to have to elect different people."

LONDON (ShareCast) - The UK stock market is expected to open strongly on Tuesday morning (Frankfurt: TDM.F - news) as traders return to their desks in a bullish mood following an impressive performance on European bourses the day before.
City sources predict the FTSE 100 will open around 24 points higher than Friday's close of 6,815.75.
While UK markets were closed on Monday for a Bank Holiday, indices across the continent posted strong gains in the wake of the European elections at the weekend.
Italy's FTSE Mib in particular surged nearly 4% after incumbent President Matteo Renzi's Democratic Party managed to secure a sound victory in the European Parliament elections. This, according to analysts at UniCredit (Berlin: CRIH.BE - news) , is "undoubtedly positive news, particularly in terms of the boost it might provide to the reform process".
Michael Hewson, Chief Market Analyst from CMC Markets, said that the FTSE is expected to "play catch up" today, with developments in Ukraine also helping sentiment despite Ukrainian forces launching air strikes on pro-Russian militants along the eastern border.
"The weekend vote in the Ukraine appears to have been one major catalyst for yesterday's strong European session, with the new Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko making conciliatory noises towards Russia, as well as the European Union in an attempt to bring together the various factions in an attempt to de-escalate recent tensions," he explained.
Lloyds to float TSB
Lloyds Banking Group has confirmed it will imminently float around 25% of the shares of its TSB subsidiary and has to list the entire business by the end of 2015. "The decision to proceed with an initial public offering of TSB is an important further step for the group as we act to meet our commitments to the European Commission," said Chief Executive António Horta-Osório.
AstraZeneca (NYSE: AZN - news) has hailed its future as an "independent company" after US pharmaceutical giant Pfizer (NYSE: PFE - news) withdrew its takeover bid for the Anglo-Swedish group. Following continued rejections from AstraZeneca's board, Pfizer said on Monday that it "does not intend to make an offer".
Tullow Oil (LSE: TLW.L - news) announced that drilling of one of its majority-owned wells offshore Norway failed to meet targets. Exploration well 31/2-21S on licence 550 did not encounter reservoir quality sandstones in the main Upper Jurassic target. It did encounter reservoir quality sandstones in the secondary targets but these intervals were said to be "water wet".
Soft drinks maker AG Barr announced Chairman Ronnie Hanna will retire in December this year as it increased revenue by 5.2% in the 15 weeks to May 11th. John Nicolson will assume the role of Deputy Chairman with immediate effect and will take on the role of Chairman when Hanna steps down at the end of the year.
