Euro Working Group Teleconference on Greece Produces No Decisions
With no significant decisions, as expected, concluded the Euro Working Group (EWG) teleconference about Greece. According to a Eurozone source the discussion between the single currency’s Deputy Finance Ministers lasted less than two hours and the member states’ representatives agreed that the discussions should continue in Athens and Brussels. “There is still much work to be done at technical level in Athens and Brussels to reach an agreed and comprehensive list of measures” the same source indicated to Greek media. The Eurozone Deputy Finance Ministers were briefed on the progress the Greek government has made regarding its reforms list. The list is expected to be submitted to Greece’s partners to unlock fresh aid for the debt-ridden country. Athens has been working on the proposed reforms with the three creditor institutions, namely the European Commission (EC), the European Central Bank (ECB) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). “The only purpose of the call was to be updated by the three institutions and the Greek colleagues on where the talks in Athens and Brussels are at,” another unnamed senior Eurozone official told Reuters. “We have taken note that there has been progress and convergence for the last days but there is still quite some work that needs to be done to come to a successful conclusion of this part of the process which is a comprehensive list of measures that will form the basis -and be a credible perspective- for, ultimately, a successful conclusion of the review, which continues to be our aim,” the official, familiar with the content of the teleconference, explained. The Eurozone Deputy Finance Ministers teleconference is seen as a preparatory move ahead of Eurogroup meetings that can decide whether to disburse new loans to Greece. The cash-strapped country could be bankrupt by the end of the month in no aid arrives on time. “We stand ready to fully engage within our mandate as soon as there is an agreed output between the three institutions and the Greek authorities,” the same official concluded, as cited by the Reuters.

Searching for a 'dream job' is like looking for a 'soul mate' — both are self-destructive fairy tales
Americans have some odd notions. Take, for instance, the dream job. "We all want a dream job," performance strategist Laura Garnett writes at Inc. "Just like finding that one great love," she says, "it's a goal that virtually everyone has." As you can tell from Garnett's comparison, the dream job is a romantic idea. Like the pursuit of "that one great love," it's misguided, unrealistic, and self-defeating. Let's dig into it. The "one great love" sentiment is another way of talking about a "soul mate" or "better half." It goes back to Ancient Greece, some 2,300 years ago. In Plato's "Symposium," the playwright Aristophanes says: Each of us when separated, having one side only, like a flat fish, is but the tally-half of a man, and he is always looking for his other half. When one of them meets with his other half, the actual half of himself ... the pair are lost in an amazement of love and friendship and intimacy, and one will not be out of the other's sight, as I may say, even for a moment: these are the people who pass their whole lives together. Sounds familiar, right? It was handed down through fairy tales like Cinderella, where the glass slipper only fits the prince's one true love. Yet couples psychologists John Gottman and Peter Pearson agree that this fairy tale has been a disastrous model for relationships. "There's a cultural attitude where if you find the right person, you shouldn't have to work" on the relationship, says Pearson, a cofounder of the Couples Institute in Menlo Park, California. "Because at the beginning you didn't have to work; it was easy and effortless," he says. "If you find the right person, [you think] it should stay that way. It's the happily-ever-after imprint. If you're with the right person, it will take care of itself." That same hope animates the quest for the dream job. The script goes something like this: If you find the right gig, it will satisfy all of your needs and you won't have to work a day in your life. You'll feel so fulfilled, content, and creative that you'll have no choice but to give a TED Talk about how you arranged your life in the perfect way. But looking for everything you need in a single person or job creates a ton of pressure, and according to "How to Find Fulfilling Work" author Roman Krznaric, it's unsustainable. "The mythology of the soul mate ratchets up our expectations of what that relationship should be," Krznaric says, "that you should try and find all your loving needs in one person — the romantic partner and the best friend and the person you can have children with and a playful relationship with and so on." It "inevitably fails," he says, "because we can't meet those expectations." Similarly, Krznaric notes, if you look at the surveys asking what people want from their careers, certain themes come up again and again, like quality relationships, autonomy, creativity, status, recognition, and money. It's hard to find all of those criteria in a single job. Recognizing that, you could opt for a "portfolio career," where you do several jobs at the same time. For instance, you might freelance articles to magazines and run digital strategy for a brand during the week, and then teach yoga and cooking classes on the weekend. Or you could satisfy those different parts of yourself by combining career and leisure pursuits. Krznaric uses the American poet Wallace Stephens, who wrote the famous "Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird," as an example. "He was an insurance company executive by day and an avant garde poet by night," Krznaric says. "When he won the Pulitzer Prize in 1955, and he basically could have gotten a full position at Harvard to write poetry for the rest of his life, he turned it down and kept up his insurance company job because he didn't want to depurify his creative act as a poet." Like Stephens, you could find your desire for financial security and status in your career, and then find your need for freedom and expression outside the formal workplace. The approach works for Krznaric. "I do a lot of public talks, and I'm not one for seeking status and recognition, but being in a public light to some extent is reaffirming of what I do," he says. "But as a writer, I'm sitting quietly in my study as I am now, in an attic in suburban Oxford, and no one sees what I'm doing and it's a very internal process, struggling with words. These various parts of my life satisfy the different selves that I have."SEE ALSO: Bill Murray reveals the secret to being awesome at your job Join the conversation about this story » NOW WATCH: Here's what it takes to master any job — not just be good at it

Stepping Over the Border in Divided Cyprus
On the 11th of March, a group of artists gathered on the northern side of Nicosia, the last divided capital city in the world. They were all there to take part in a European Union-funded residency, aiming to bridge the border between the Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot communities. The island of Cyprus has long been a contested area, its history a series of invasions and occupations by foreign powers. In the 16th century it was seized by the Ottoman Empire who held onto control of the island until it was taken over by the British Empire in the late 19th century. While bringing significant infrastructural advances to Cyprus, the British colonial presence created rifts in the Turkish Cypriot and Greek Cypriot communities. Shortly after the country gained independence in 1960, inter-communal violence was amplified, leading to increasing separation between the two communities. This inter-communal violence spurred on increased foreign intervention, most notably the Turkish military invasion of 1974, which has left the island and the two communities divided to this day. Despite the border opening between the North and South in 2003, the Cyprus Problem remains the country's most pressing issue. Greek Cypriots feel their homes and land have been stolen, many not wanting to cross into the North for fear of legitimizing the internationally unrecognized Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. Turkish Cypriots on the other hand, are fast becoming a minority in the North, with more and more Turks moving to Cyprus, buying land, and polarizing conflict with the South. Although there is no clear political resolution in sight, certain initiatives have been put into place in the hopes of bringing the two communities closer together and working towards their reconciliation. One such initiative occurred this March in Cyprus' divided capital city of Nicosia. A ten-day residency titled "Stepping Over the Borders" brought together Turkish Cypriot, Greek Cypriot, and international artists to explore ways of breaking down the border between the North and South. The residency is part of the larger "Confrontation Through Art" project funded by the European Union and co-run by the European Mediterranean Art Association (EMAA) based in the North side of Nicosia and the Rooftop Theater Group based in the South. Launched in the fall of 2014, and concluding in 2017, the initiative seeks to use various projects such as artist residencies, children's workshops, and lectures, to achieve bi-communal collaboration and help reconcile divided perspectives in Cyprus. Inside the EMAA building on a rainy Saturday in Nicosia, a day after the residency had concluded, the project coordinator for "Confrontation Through Art," Özgül Ezgin described how the residency was structured. Curators invited four European artists to the residency and then an open call was put out across Cyprus, inviting two Turkish Cypriot and two Greek Cypriot artists to take part. Özgül explained that for ten days, all eight artists lived together in the South side of the city and "had to experience the crossing every single day in order to commute to EMAA where the residency was occurring." She said, "for the two Greek Cypriots, Christina [Georgiou] and Marinos [Houtris], this was the first time they had ever crossed into the North." Just as the art they were making was stepping over the border, so did they experience this stepping over every day. One of the Greek Cypriot artists, Christina Georgiou, a Nicosia native, decided to explore the border by walking it. Traversing the border in Nicosia's Old City, Christina measured the size of it by calling out to her Turkish Cypriot friend in the North doing the same walk. Rarely hearing each other, the performance showed how both communities' voices get lost along the arbitrary line. In the installation at EMAA, Christina emphasized the arbitrariness of the border by putting a white line of powder in between the two facing walls of photographs documenting the walk. Originally a perfectly straight, uninterrupted line, as visitors to the exhibition walked along the photographs of the border, so did they disrupt the uniformity of the line, eventually causing it to dissipate into an amorphous shape along the floor. Christina's piece, along with the other seven artists in the residency, seeks to show that by creating art that confronts these boundaries, Cypriots and foreign visitors alike can redraw and destabilize the borders that are currently there, just like Christina's white line. In response to what change she thought the residency had accomplished, Özgül Ezgin replied that over 60 Greek Cypriots crossed the border to attend the opening, many of whom had never crossed over before. Smiling, Özgül remarked that yesterday Christina had also stopped by her office to tell her she was going to become a permanent member of EMAA and begin working with them. In April the exhibition will move to CVAR, an arts center in the South side of city, literally stepping over the border and allowing more Nicosians to think critically about the role of the border that divides their city. Although just a beginning, the "Stepping Over the Borders" residency is an example of how small-scale art residencies can create real change in zones of communal conflict and separation. Inviting artists from communities in conflict and putting them into a project run by organizations from both communities, opens up a space for them to see from each other's perspectives and shows them that they can collaborate together. Perhaps in stalemate situations, as in Cyprus, where everyone seems to be waiting for a political Godot, small-scale residencies like this are an effective way to create a slow, but crucial exchange of ideas and empathy. A project like this then can also be scalable, taken to other zones of bi-communal conflict like Israel-Palestine, India-Pakistan, and Ukraine-Russian Annexed Crimea. While waiting for the bus outside of EMAA, one of the Turkish Cypriot artists, Abdullah Denizhan, said "a few nights ago I had a conversation with some of the other artists and for one of the first times I felt that I could see from their eyes and they could see from mine." Although the guard posts and checkpoints still line the border between the North and South of Cyprus, it is thoughts like this which give hope for a day where the division becomes redundant and the barbed wire gets put away. Many thanks to Ourania Yancopoulos for showing me Cyprus and helping with this piece.

Man Says He Was 'Duped' Into Selling Banksy's Gaza Strip Street Art For $200
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — A 33-year-old Gaza man says he has been duped into selling a valuable work by British graffiti artist Banksy for less than $200 to a local artist. The popular street artist is believed to have sneaked into Gaza earlier this year, leaving behind four murals, including one drawn on a metal door that depicted the Greek goddess Niobe cowering against the rubble of a destroyed house. The painting, titled "Bomb Damage," was drawn on a door, the last remaining part of a two-story house belonging to the Dardouna family in northern Gaza. Unaware of the work's value, Rabie Dardouna said Tuesday he was tricked into selling the door to an eager local artist for just 700 shekels, or about $175. Banksy's works have been valued as high as hundreds of thousands of dollars. "I did not know that it was this valuable. I heard it can be sold for millions," Dardouna said. "Now I want the door back." Dardouna said he didn't even know who the British artist was and initially didn't pronounce Banksy's name correctly. The Gaza artist who bought the door, Belal Khaled, said he did not mean to trick anyone. He said he just wanted to protect the painting and had no intention of profiting. "I bought the painting to protect its artistic value and preserve it from damage," Khaled told The Associated Press. "Another reason is to display it in other places as well. I don't have any monetary interest in this." He said he has been in touch with Banksy's representatives, hoping to get a clearance to showcase the mural in Gaza art exhibits. The debate over the issue has heated up on Facebook, with Palestinian activists and journalists accusing the buyer of tricking the Dardounas while others have defended him for buying it legally. Khaled agreed to show reporters the mural on condition that its location not be revealed. The Dardouna home was one of 18,000 destroyed in the 50-day war between Israel and Gaza's Hamas rulers last summer. Banksy is a critic of Israel and he has created works in Gaza and the West Bank meant to draw attention to the plight of the Palestinians. Other Banksy works spotted in Gaza after the mystery visit were a mural of a playful kitten and of children swinging from a military watchtower. Banksy publicist Jo Brooks said at the time that the artist entered Gaza through a tunnel from Egypt, though such a route is extremely difficult and dangerous. On a previous visit to the region he drew a painting of a girl pulled upward by balloons on Israel's West Bank separation barrier.
