He takes on two of the sexiest women the silver
screen has ever seen in "Catwoman." And when you're working
with Halle Berry in black leather and a femme fatale Sharon
Stone, co-star Benjamin Bratt says you better bring your A-game.
WB says it has had too few minority characters
The WB has not featured nearly enough minorities
on its shows and its fall schedule so far also is largely
devoid of blacks and other minorities, chairman Garth Ancier
acknowledged during WB's summer press tour. Ancier and new
WB entertainment president David Janollari said they plan
to show more ethnic characters in the future. Broadcasting

Beyond the Artist’s Way: Creativity and Transformation
with Mark Bryan
The Art and Science of Creativity, Relationships
and Success
An Experiential Weekend Intensive
August 13, 14, 15, 2004
Friday: 7:00 pm to 9:30 pm
Saturday: 8:30 am to 6:00 pm
Sunday: 8:30 am to 4:00 pm
Location: Pasadena, California
Hotel: The Westin Hotel, 191 N. Los Robles Ave,
Pasadena, CA. 91101
Facilitator: Mark Bryan Price: $495. USD
The California Board of Behavioral Sciences, CEU
#1873, approves this workshop for CEU credits for Licensed
Clinical Social Workers and Marriage and Family Counselors.
EVOLUTION OF THE WORKSHOP
The Artist’s Way created a phenomenon and became
an international best-seller. It has been a dozen years since
that groundbreaking book hit the marketplace and during that
time much has been learned from the experience of working
artists who use the tools, the scientific study of creativity,
the social psychology of people who create.
These new sources of information led to the development
of advanced techniques that provide a fresh approach to creative
expression and personal transformation. Based on a decade
of exploration and refinement, this workshop presents successful
strategies that both augment and surpass the original Artist’s
Way tools.
Beyond the Artist’s Way: Creativity and Transformation
will help illuminate the next important steps toward fulfillment,
financial success, creative expression, or psychological wholeness.
The workshop teaches effective forms of reflection that lead
to insight, helps participants re-imagine their failures,
setbacks, and heartbreaks so they are free to face new opportunities
from a more positive emotional stance, and guides them to
re-ignite passions and leverage their strengths to help improve
success in work and in love. These tools can increase the
joy in everyday existence and promote rejuvenation over the
life course.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: This workshop purposely attracts
an eclectic mix of participants, many of whom wish they were
more creative—or richer, healthier, happier. Workshop members
typically include business professionals, health care providers,
entertainment executives, educators as well as accomplished
and amateur artists from every medium. Regardless of their
background they often desire forward movement in one or more
of the following areas:
1. Initiate and complete a creative project –
in business, science, or the fine arts.
2. Work through negative emotions that block insight
and creative expression.
3. Gain insight into current personal or business
relationships.
4. Uncover their unique voice and personal values.
5. Plan transition from one career or life phase
into another.
6. Overcome burnout; find new meaning in work.
7. Have fun.
8. Increase levels of optimism and productivity.
9. Cope with success.

TV and the upcoming "American Latino TV" (Fall 2004), will
be speaking at the IQPC Conference "U.S. Hispanic Marketing
2004 - Assumptions vs. Reality: Solutions for Reaching the

how to rethink the Hispanic market definitions in the context
of a new cultural currency that impacts the mainstream and

that exist with the overall American Latino market and aims
to alter any assumptions about the market that are not entirely
accurate in order to positively impact marketing and media
investment decisions. There are 21 million Hispanic Americans
who speak English and watch English programs and the single
biggest void in the industry is the lack of adequate content
and messaging aimed at this large segment.
