BOOK : Rich Women by Kim Kiyosaki

From www.scoop.co.nz (this has had mixed reviews on Amazon, but could be worth a peek).

In the past women have not made up a significant proportion of investors, however in this age of defacto relationships and divorce women need to learn to safeguard their financial futures. Kim Kiyosaki recognises this and is sending out a warning to New Zealand women that the only person they should rely on financially is themselves if they want to avoid financial disaster. Her new book is designed to encourage and teach women to invest so they can avoid becoming a statistic.

Did you know that:
* 47% of women over 50 are single
* up to 50% of all marriages end in divorce
* in the first year after a divorce, a womans standard of living drops an average of 73%

Kim is the co-founder of the Rich Dad company (she is married to Robert Kiyosaki author of the bestselling book Rich Dad Poor Dad) and owns a multi-million dollar real estate company in her own right.

RICH WOMAN
A Book on Investing for Women

By Kim Kiyosaki

“Because I hate being told what to do.”

Kim Kiyosaki’s Rich Woman
delivers a much needed financial reality check

Kim Kiyosaki, wife of bestselling author of Rich Dad Poor Dad has a warning for New Zealand women. In her new book, Rich Woman – Because I hate being told what to do! this seasoned investor, independently wealthy and savvy businesswoman warns women of the perils of relying on a husband, partners and even parents for their financial security.

Rich Woman - Because I Hate Being Told What To Do! is her reality check for women everywhere educating them that the only person they should ever rely on financially is themselves if they want to avoid financial disaster.

“Today, more than ever, we as women can no longer depend on someone else, be it our husband or partner, our parents, our boss or our government to take care of us financially,” Kim says. “What was true for our mothers and grandmothers is not applicable to us today. In my opinion women must learn to ensure a secure life for themselves and their children. The rules have changed and it’s time we take control of our futures.”

Kim has always focused on her own investment plan, totally independent of business partnerships, and has built a multi-million dollar real estate empire. She maintains that the rewards that come with personal investment go way beyond dollars and cents.

“There are many powerful rewards for women who take the time and effort to become serious investors,” says Kim. “Financial security brings greater self-confidence, better relationships, less stress, more happiness. I don’t like being told what to do – especially when it comes to my money. Investing has allowed me the freedom to choose what I want and that freedom is worth it all.”

Kim believes that when it comes to money, men and women are truly worlds apart, historically, psychologically and emotionally. However she is adamant that the common obstacles that hold so many women back are easily outweighed by advantages that also give them the investment edge including:

• Women are not afraid to say “I don’t know” so they remain open to learning and understanding the investment arena
• Women are willing to ask for help. Unlike men, women are far more likely to ask for help and don�t waste valuable time trying to figure out strategies on their own
• Women do their homework : women spend more time researching investment choices - buying because a deal makes sense rather than make a big point of purchase
• Women's great shopping skills mean they're naturals and are good at finding bargain properties!

• The facts are that many women over fifty are single with 46 % of marriages ending in divorce, says Kim. “Women simply have to find the time to take financial control to ensure they maintain their dignity and self-respect, no matter what life might throw at them and not have to depend on a man, a family, a company or a government– ever.”

Publication Date: 18th July 2006 RRP: $34.95, paperback

About the author
In 1989, Kim Kiyosaki began her real estate investing career with a purchase of a 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom rental house in Portland, Oregon. In 1996, Kim co-founded, along with husband Robert Kiyosaki, the Rich Dad company and designed the CASHFLOW� board game. Robert Kiyosaki is the author of international best seller Rich Dad Poor Dad. Today Kim�s real estate investment company buys, sells and manages millions of dollars worth of property. Kim strongly advocates and encourages women to get into the world of investing.

MUSIC/COMPUTERS – WORKSHOP/GIG: Bleep

BLEEP CIRCUIT BENDERS MAKE FOR BLEEPING GOOD TIME

The "bleep" workshop crew, champions of music made using machines,
bring circuit bending -- the art of torturing, transplanting, and
grafting electronic sound-making devices -- to life in a once-only
show at Happy on Wednesday the 26th of July, from 8pm.

"We take cheap battery-powered noise-making toys, ones you can buy
from The Warehouse or The $2 Shop, and disassemble and deliberately
short circuit their electronics -- teaching them to speak with the
most alien and unique new voices you have ever heard," says Damian
'frey' Stewart, the organiser of the event. "Then we take them to the
stage, and see what kind of music we can make with them."

The circuit bending show is preceded by a workshop on Sunday the 23rd
of July from 4pm -- the Sunday before the show -- and thanks to a
grant from the Wellington City Council's Creative Communities funding
scheme, it is free and open to anyone who would like to join in the
torturing.

Those who just want to hear the new voices the circuits are given can
come along to watch the show, which costs $5. The show will feature
the circuits that were taken to the workshop and tortured,
transplanted, and grafted -- or bent, if you prefer -- engaging in
short musical duets and group performances with the aid of their
torturers, transplanters, and grafters.

Given all of the torturing of poor defenceless circuits going on,
does Stewart expect electronics rights activists to come chasing
after him? "I don't think so. I mean, the circuits are clearly
happier when they're making better sounds. If you were a toy phone
that could only make eight different noises wouldn't you rather be
speaking a more interesting language? I know I would."

This show is the second in the "bleep" series of workshops and
performances for people who make music using machines. The idea
behind the workshops, the first of which drew 18 participants, is to
get like-minded people together, to explore new musical ideas, and to
have lots of fun -- and then perform the ideas explored in a live show
at Happy the following week.

"People shouldn't be put off by the idea of music made using
machines," says Stewart. "If you've ever seen inside a piano, you'll
know that it's a complicated mechanical device -- it's a machine.
It's the musician that makes the music -- the musician playing the
piano, or in our case, bending the circuit."

For participants in the workshop, some componentry and equipment will
be provided, but they will need to supply their own circuit to bend.
"Something electronic and battery powered that makes sound that you
don’t mind disassembling and modifying -- a toy phone, a
keyboard, a Furby doll, a speak'n'spell toy computer, anything
really."

EXHIBITION : Litmus Research Initiative

Intimacy and In.yer.face

www.intimacyandinyerface.net

July 20th, 8 p.m. (NZ time)

Intimacy and In.yer.face is a live performance/installation event and remix project, featuring an interdisciplinary selection of local and international artists, operating in the nexus between art and technology. Our conception of site is fragmented when agents participate from spatially dispersed locations, and when the boundaries between online and physical performative space are blurred. Intimacy and In.yer.face explores this fragmentation, the endless and cyclical encoding and decoding of information that occurs in the interface between humans and machines. Curated by Daniel Agnihotri-Clark, Intimacy and In.yer.face commences with a one-night event featuring simultaneous live performances and interactive installations, linked by real-time streaming of audio and video signals which will be broadcast over the internet. The event will feature new works by the globally dispersed cyberformance troupe Avatar Body Collision (New Zealand, London, Helsinki), the interdisciplinary artist Kartini Thomas (Wellington), aerialists/actors Pipi-Ayesha Evans and Rhys Latton (Wellington), and audio/video artists Emil McAvoy and Damian Stewart (Wellington).

The performance/installation event will take place on July 20th in the former Dominion Museum Building, Wellington (8 p.m. NZ time), at a mystery location in Paris (10 a.m. FR time), and everywhere else via www.intimacyandinyerface.net. Intimacy and In.yer.face is truly a simultaneously local and global event, pushing the understandings of site and indeterminate modes of performance practice in the interface with technology. Intimacy and In.Yer.Face follows last year’s Indeterminacy and Interface - the first of performance event curated by Daniel. These projects form a significant component of his on-going doctoral research at the Massey University School of Fine Arts.

Following the performance/installation event, an open call for remix will expand the role of the audience, facilitating active participation and dialogue. Audio and video files will be available for download from www.intimacyandinyerface.net. This remixed material will then be collated into a limited edition DVD release.

instrument (no pointy headstocks please), but certainly not a virtuoso.
Ability to sing harmonies is also desirable.
We are in the process of writing and recording our next record and we need
someone who's serious about being part of the group in the long term.

Skills training for women

Want to be more confident when speaking to groups?

The Successful Speaking Experience
1-day presentations skills training for women

4 August 2006, Wellington


o you dread the thought of giving a presentation? Do you lie awake at night wondering how you are going to keep your audience interested during tomorrow’s talk? Or do you wonder how some speakers seem to impress, persuade and motivate others so easily?
For many of us, speaking to groups is one of our greatest fears, yet by learning the steps to successful speaking, we can deliver an effective presentation every time.

This popular 1-day women-only course, The ‘Successful Speaking Experience’, is held in a relaxed, fun and friendly learning environment.
It is a small supportive group, with a maximum of 8 people on the course.

Learn how to:
Look and sound more confident
Keep your audience interested at all times
Structure your presentation for maximum impact

Learn the secrets of the top speakers:
What is the one thing that separates a poor presenter from a great presenter?
What are the 4 characteristics that every audience wants from a speaker?
Do women speak differently to men? We look how we can project a more confident image

You will be able to practise in a supportive, non-threatening environment.
