The Digital Hub is hosted in Canada at the University of British Columbia (UBC), in collaboration with the University of Alberta (UA) and the Mood Disorders Society of Canada (MDSC). Core partners across the Asia-Pacific region support and contribute to the activities of the Digital Hub.
The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) is a regional economic forum established in 1989 to leverage the growing interdependence of the Asia-Pacific. APEC's 21 members aim to create greater prosperity for the people of the region by promoting balanced, inclusive, sustainable, innovative and secure growth and by accelerating regional economic integration.
- Economic Impact
The economic impact of mental health cannot be overstated: recent estimates*Bloom, D.E., Cafiero, E.T., Jané-Llopis, E., Abrahams-Gessel, S., Bloom, L.R., Fathima, S., Feigl, A.B., Gaziano, T., Mowafi, M., Pandya, A., Prettner, K., Rosenberg, L., Seligman, B., Stein, A.Z., & Weinstein, C. (2011). The Global Economic Burden of Noncommunicable Diseases. Geneva: World Economic Forum. put the annual global cost of mental illness at nearly USD 2.5 trillion--just under half the total global expenditures on health. These costs are projected increase to USD 6 trillion by the year 2030. Unlike other major disease groups such as cardiovascular disease and cancer, the majority of this economic burden results not from the direct costs of treatment and care, but rather indirect costs such as lost income from unemployment, lost productivity, and the increased use of social and other health services that results when mental illness is under-diagnosed and under-treated*Insel TR. Assessing the economic costs of serious mental illness. American Journal of Psychiatry. 2008 Jun 1..
In addition to improving the quality of life and well-being of individuals and communities, smart, innovative investments in mental health have the potential to reduce the staggering burden of mental illness, with returns in work productivity, social participation, and lowered health care and other costs. It's clear that failing to invest in mental health costs us all--and that pursuing opportunities for scientific, technological, and social innovations in mental health are critical to ensure healthy and prosperous communities.
- Mission
Our mission is to strengthen the mental health and well-being of individuals and communities across the Asia-Pacific in support of sustainable economic growth.
The Digital Hub for Mental Health will foster awareness, share information and experiences, build capacity and scale up, and promote innovative research and evaluation.
We will create and promote multi-stakeholder collaborations and public-private partnerships that strengthen these activities to meet the needs of individual APEC member economies and the people they represent.
- Priorities
APEC's approach to the challenges and opportunities in mental health prioritizes multi-sector collaborations and international best practices.
We need to ensure that political leaders, institutions, businesses and the public recognize the importance of strengthened and strategic investment in mental health to support economic growth.
Digital Hub projects are organized around seven Mental Health Focus Areas, common areas of need and cooperation in which innovative projects and partnerships have the greatest potential for critical impact. Focus Areas were identified by APEC member economies through assessment of their national priorities in mental health and are summarized in the APEC Report on Strategic Needs in Mental Health.

- Endorsements
The APEC Digital Hub for Mental Health has the support of the highest level of APEC, having been officially endorsed by Foreign and Trade Ministers in November 2015 as a critical component of the successful implementation of the APEC Roadmap to Promote Mental Wellness in a Healthy Asia-Pacific (2014-2020) (the Roadmap). APEC's strategic plan to address the mental health challenges faced by APEC economies, the Roadmap was officially adopted by APEC Ministers in 2014 and complements the World Health Organization's Mental Health Action Plan (the WHO Action Plan) and its 2020 timeline.
APEC shares the WHO Action Plan's vision of a world in which mental health is valued, promoted and protected throughout the life course; mental health disorders are prevented when possible; people with mental illness are free from discrimination and stigma; and all have rapid access to high quality, culturally-appropriate mental health and social care.
APEC recognizes that success in this effort will enable millions of the region's citizens to improve their overall health while participating fully in society and at work. Falling short of this vision is a threat to the Asia Pacific region's economic growth, efficiency and sustained prosperity.

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA-The University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's baseball team seized an early 4-0 lead and went on to defeat visiting Rhode Island College, 10-5, in a Little East Conference game at the UMass Dartmouth Athletic Complex Monday afternoon.
The Corsairs scored four times in the second inning, getting RBI singles from senior shortstop Ryan McDermott (Pembroke, MA/Pembroke HS) and junior third baseman John Granahan (Hanover, MA/Hanover HS/Southern Maine), a run-scoring double from junior first baseman Anthony Fiorita (North Reading, MA/St. John's Prep), and an RBI grounder from freshman second baseman Bedward Ortiz (Worcester, MA/Doherty HS).
Junior first baseman Dan Hopkins (Cranston, RI/Cranston West HS) drove in a run in the sixth fir RIC with a sacrifice fly, but UMass Dartmouth came back with three runs in their half of the inning, getting RBI singles from McDermott, Ortiz and Granahan.
The Anchormen scored twice in the seventh and twice more in the eighth on a two-run homer by senior designated hitter Gary Levesque (East Providence, RI/East Providence HS), but sophomore third baseman Matt Worden (New Bedford, MA/New Bedford HS) doubled home two runs in the bottom of the eighth to increase the Corsairs' lead to five runs.
Senior right-hander Chris Contre (East Bridgewater, MA/East Bridgewater HS) allowed two earned runs in 6 2/3 innings to earn the win, improving to 3-2. Sophomore lefthander Mike St. Martin (Worcester, MA/Doherty HS) and junior right Pat Lavey (Cranston, RI/Cranston East HS) finished up. Sophomore David Hoey (Lincoln, RI/Lincoln HS), who went the first six innings and allowed seven runs, took the loss and fell to 1-5.
"We hit the ball well, we had a couple of big innings, and it was nice to see," said UMass Dartmouth Head Coach Bob Curran. "Chris Contre did a nice job on the mound, he got us to where we needed to be, and Matt Worden had a big hit for us late in the game when we put it away."
The Corsairs improved to 12-17 and 6-4 in the Little East Conference, while the Anchormen fell to 12-16 and 3-7 in LEC play. UMass Dartmouth will return to action when they host Wheaton Tuesday. RIC will visit Salve Regina Tuesday.

The Special Olympics is disputing the White House claim that its chairman, Tim Shriver, accepted Rahm Emanuel's apology for calling liberals "retarded." SourceThis is ridiculous. The word "retarded" is a word used to classify a person into the range of "slow and/or limited mental acuity". It does not mean "the Special Olympics people" by definition. When someone in our culture uses the word, it's derogatory because it has become an offshoot of "stupid". If you were to say someone's idea is retarded, you're not saying "That idea has Down Syndrome", you're saying "That idea is stupid".
We're told by organizations that are involved in such groups that we should not use the word 'retarded' to refer to the type of individuals that would qualify for the Special Olympics, yet every time someone representing said individuals gets upset about someone freely using the word, they are in fact participating in calling that same group of people 'retarded' in the process. You don't defend something if you don't think it is being attacked. Therefore, the only way you can perceive the word 'retarded' as an attack against a particular group of people is if you yourself classify them in that way...and if that's the case, you have no room to talk. If you want to separate yourself from a classification word, you simply stop linking yourself to it. In order to do that, though, you have to choose an alternative phrase to be used for classification that you're comfortable with. You can't keep changing your mind. At first, 'retarded' was ok, but now it isn't. Then, 'mentally handicapped' was ok, but now that too is offensive. The same thing happened with 'mentally challenged' and 'differently challenged' and now there are even people saying 'differently abled' is offensive. At what point do you realize that it's obvious that there's no possible way to classify a negative condition without it having a negative stigma attached to it?
I am in no way saying people with cognitive impairments or anything of the sort are "bad people". That is a classification that is without generalization and should be reserved for each individual out there in the world. But it's obvious that they are hindered in some abnormal way that deviates from the standard, so they are required to be classified as such. You are what you are. Obese people are obese, short people are short, bald people are bald, etc. Simply put, on the IQ scales, if you're at the line you're 'average', the highest points above the line are the 'genius' level and the lowest points below the line are the 'retarded' level. That's how they're defined, and then when you couple that with the fact that the current cultural consciousness uses the term 'retarded' as a synonym for "stupid" rather than actually taking a shot at a group of people, it becomes clear that someone like Rahm isn't trying to be offensive towards said group. He was calling liberals stupid (something I disagree with, but that's not what this is about).
Ask yourself this question: Have you ever said "that's gay" and meant it in any negative way, rather than meaning it as simply "that's homosexual in nature" or "that's cheery and pleasant in nature"? If so, then you would need to apologize to the so-called Gay Community for that as well. What if you called someone an idiot and you meant it in a derogatory way? Should you apologize to anyone below the average IQ because they may have found it offensive?
It's more than obvious that Rahm Emanuel was not making fun of or belittling people with disabilities, so there's no reason for him to apologize.

Im seriously tied of these stupid ass claims that people make about one group's video encoding from another's and the difference with audio tracks like FLAC vs. AC3. It's stupid
Here's a post for example,
"When I view the pictures through my browser, I can clearly tell that Coalgirl's looks the most vibrant and sharpest, while DGz is clearly the most blurry and THORA has a completely different color variation compared to Coalgirl's and DGz's release. However, when I save the pictures onto my desktop and view it from there, there isn't as big of a difference when viewing it on my desktop as there is when viewing it in the browser. With that being said, even when viewing it on my desktop DGz's is still the blurriest, but THORA's picture does not have such a big color differentiation, it has the same color palette as the other releases.
Tl;dr : THORA's release is the worst. Look at Asuka's hair ribbon, the black lines running along the hair accessory is very much pixelated (result of a bad encode/source?). Coalgirl's is the way to go. I will be waiting for the v2.
Coalgirls > DGz > Thora"
Coalgirls > DGz > Thora"
The pictures in question,
CoalGirls: http://i50.tinypic.com/2ro4wwh.png
To me the difference between THORA and CoalGirls is so minor that really when you are watching it when the characters are moving and what not your eyes will not be able to pinpoint every single flaw in the fames when it was riped and encoded. No one's eyes are THAT perfect and accurate to see them. Kinda like the people that say they can see the major difference between 60fps to 120+fps. It become unnotiable because your eyes cannot process that fast. Also my other thing about this is that thee people are damn picky for something that they are pirating. . . sheesh. I honestly Like Thora not for the quality though I like their quality imho, but mostly for the ordered chapters and file size.

Disease of the cardiovascular system encompasses a wide range of pathology throughout the human body. The field of cardiology today has the availability of multiple different forms of cutting edge technology to aid in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of cardiovascular disease. It is my goal as a cardiologist to utilize these various technological advances as tools to assist in the medical decision-making process with my patients. Despite the technology that is available, however, I believe that nothing can replace the personal interaction between a patient and their physician that establishes a relationship from which the best and most informed medical decisions can be made.

The French weren't into that. They froze their famously delicious custard, and the rest is history. While I prefer the later, I have to admit they won, since it is the style that dominates the freezer case.
I like to use pure vanilla extract over the whole bean, mostly because it's easier, cheaper, and always consistent. Having said that, it's hard to argue against the whole bean, so feel free to go full foodie. Speaking of which, if you don't have an ice cream maker, there are plenty of "hacks" online that work fairly well.
I would have called this French vanilla ice cream, but where I grew up, this is called frozen custard. It's traditionally served soft, in cones, but I prefer to freeze it firm. That way, I get French vanilla ice cream, and as it melts, I also get soft-serve frozen custard. Now that's a win-win. Anyway, stay tuned for homemade cones, and in the meantime, I really hope you give this a try. Enjoy!
Ingredients for 1 quart of Frozen Vanilla Custard aka French Vanilla Ice Cream
5 large egg yolks
pinch of salt
2/3 cup white sugar
1 cup whole milk
2 cups heavy cream
2 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract (or one split/scraped whole vanilla bean)

How To Make Your Hope Definition Essay Stand Out
Hope is something intangible that people hold on to in times of great trials and unsurmountable difficulties in life. It gives them the strength and motivation to continue with life in spite of being worried, tired and bored with what's happening daily in their lives. A little spark of it gives them a reason to laugh or grin, knowing that it's still there, waiting to be solved or settled. At the very least of these times, there are still many reasons out there why we should not give up on life. Instead, we aspire for the good and hope for what's best for us to do.
The following steps will help you make your hope definition essay stand out among the rest:
- Use or pick a dynamic word with multiple meanings
- Ensure that the word is questionable
- Using familiar words is to your advantage
A straightforward term that pertains to a specific word won't give you much to expound on. However, an intricate word that implies to a unique idea gives more material to investigate.
Commonly, things that suggest to a man, place, or thing are excessively basic for a definition paper. Things that refer to a thought work better, nonetheless, as do generally descriptors.
For instance, "House" is genuinely straightforward and an article composed around it might be dull. By changing to something somewhat more theoretical like "home," be that as it may, you can play around with the definition more. A "house" is an idea, and there are numerous components required in the formation of a "home." In the examination, a "house" is just a structure.
Besides being unpredictable, the word must suggest something that can mean varied things to various individuals.
A definition paper is to some degree, subjective by nature since it forces you to break down and characterize a word from your point of view. On the off chance that the answer you think of, in the process of dividing a word is the same answer any other individual would create, your article may seem to need more information.
Consulting a dictionary has a lot of information to offer. Since you are compelled to expound on the word of your choice, it is imperative that you need to have a vocabulary good background to express originally what you mean.
For example, if you never came across the word "sanguineness" you will be groping in the dark, and confusion will lead you to assume that it's correct. Better follow the suggestion for you to play safely with your words.
So that you will be successful in writing your hope definition essay, it is suggested that you read and understand every dictionary word that you use and if you still have enough time, try to trace the etymology of the word.

"Carefully watch your thoughts, for they become your words. Manage and watch your words, for they will become your actions. Consider and judge your actions, for they have become your habits. Acknowledge and watch your habits, for they shall become your values. Understand and embrace your values, for they become your destiny."
― Mahatma Gandhi
It is with holy reverence and complete humility that I reach this point in my story.
Revelation 12:10-11 – "Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, 'Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. 11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death."
And so, I continue to share my testimony as a means of overcoming the enemy and gaining greater healing and freedom in my life; but also with a hope that my story is an encouragement to you wherever you are in your journey. My greatest hope is that my story may be able to prevent someone from making the same mistakes I did. But regardless of where you are, what you may have done in the past, what storm may be brewing, or what you may be caught in the middle of….you need to know IT'S NEVER TOO LATE.
God is a Redeemer. No situation takes Him by surprise and no situation is too big for Him. There are certainly natural consequences for sin, but He uses it all and begins to turn our lives around and weave circumstances together for our GOOD and His GLORY the minute we turn it over to Him. He can bring unspeakable beauty out of the ugliest messes….all because of the greatness of His love for us.
Ephesians 3 states that "the love of Christ far surpasses mere knowledge without experience." God longs for us to know and experience the depth of His love for us. It's our hearts that He's after…not sacrifice or religion, not being good enough or simply doing and saying the right things….He wants our whole hearts – the good parts, the hurt and broken parts, the secret and hidden parts, the dysfunctional parts, the parts we think no one understands and the parts we don't even fully understand….He wants it all and He will do whatever it takes to reach us. He is relentless in His pursuit of our hearts. Yet we still have a choice….to harden our hearts and reject Him or to open our hearts and surrender to Him.
And so I pick up where I left off in my last entry. New mama, new season, new job working part time for our friends….it was a whole new world for me. On top of the new world of motherhood, I was also learning a new business and we were attending a new church….I was trying to find my place in all of my new worlds.
As I explained previously, some contention had arisen in our marriage again due to our new season and my new job and trying to find the balance and rhythm of our roles within the marriage. I sensed my husband's overall displeasure with me, but he had fallen back into his pattern of not wanting to address the conflict and work through it. His perspective was always right, and I was somehow just supposed to know, understand, and go with it. However, not only am I my own person with my own worldview, communication style, and relational needs, I also have a real need to understand and work through disagreements.
I also explained previously that since we had so little in common, our daughter had become our sole focus and point of connection. In some ways, it was a good thing as it brought us together for a season, but as we settled into our new life, for me, there was still such a lack of connection and relationship apart from the shared responsibilities and joys of parenting.
I found myself becoming isolated again. As issues were arising again in the marriage, I didn't know where to turn. My pride wouldn't let me say anything to our old community. I felt (and believed the enemy's lies) that I had my chance with the separation to get the major kinks worked out of the marriage, and the fact that some of the same issues were coming up again was my fault. What a stupid thing to believe looking back! But that's what the devil does….He lies, tries to isolate us, and he sets us up.
Proverbs 16:18: "Pride comes before destruction; a haughty spirit before a fall." I looked up the word haughty – it means having a feeling of superiority, condescending, arrogant, and proud. The definition of pride itself is – satisfaction with self; the happy satisfied feeling somebody experiences when having or achieving something that other people admire; believing you're better than others. Ouch.
1 Corinthians 10:12 says, "Therefore let anyone who thinks he stands – who feels sure that he has a steadfast mind and is standing firm – take heed lest he fall into sin."
While I've certainly been guilty at times of pride, I'm not naturally a person who sees myself as better than others…I would err more on the side of not liking myself or viewing myself as inferior. My struggle was more with self-sufficiency….and that is what happened for me during this season. When my attempts to get back into counseling proved more difficult than I had hoped, I didn't know how to ask for help and was perhaps even a little too proud to admit I needed help…but even more so, I think I was too rooted in shame from my past with an alcoholic father and the destructive patterns in the marriage.
Joyce Meyer describes shame as deeper than guilt over something we've done wrong – shame makes us feel bad about who we are. When a person has a shame-based nature, as I did, it becomes the source or root of many complex inner problems like depression, loneliness, isolation, alienation, and confusion.
I also recently heard someone wise say the nature of deception is that you don't know that you are deceived. Because of my past and the years of trying to survive a difficult marriage that I had not really dealt with, I was becoming increasingly deceived.
In the middle of the storm I am about to describe, as my life was blowing up all around me, I came across a book that has really given me words for what I believe happened to me. It is written by Beth Moore, one of the best Bible teachers out there in my opinion, and it is called When Godly People do Ungodly Things. The entire book describes how Satan attacks sincere Believers and how those who genuinely love God can be drawn away. If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it….I just re-read it as I was preparing to write this part of my story.
Satan knows the Word of God and he knows how he is defeated – by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimonies. Since there is nothing he can do about the blood of Jesus covering the redeemed, the dwelling places of His Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 16:19-20), he is out to destroy the testimony of the Believer in Christ. "Satan's favorite prey is a person of Godly influence."
Beth shares about two specific attacks in her own life that I can completely identify with. Her words could have been my own, "I thought I was the only young woman in the whole Christian world who ever fell grievously into sin after sincerely devoting her life to vocational ministry. I was completely devastated. Totally shamed."
I feel like my first "attack" of sorts came when I met, dated, and chose to marry my husband despite the red flags….and I'm about to describe the second attack on my life, my testimony, and my influence.
1 Peter 5:8-9 – "Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings."
Satan knows he is a defeated foe. However, he is doing everything he can between now and the end of the age, when Jesus comes back, to take out God's people and destroy our testimony and our influence.
Charles Spurgeon said:
"There is nothing that Satan can do for his evil cause that he does not do. We may be halfhearted, but he never is. He is the very image of ceaseless industry and untiring earnestness. He will do all that can be done in the time of his permitted rage. We may be sure that he will never lose a day."
2 Corinthians 11:2-3: "I am jealous for you with a godly jealousy. I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ."
I hate to admit that this is exactly what happened to me. I've pulled a few excerpts from Beth's book that describe how the enemy works and how he got me…
"The sufferings that are mentioned in 1 Peter 5 that believers are undergoing all over the world come in various forms. Some of come in an unexpected, overwhelming season of temptation, not unlike the temptations Satan hurled at Christ, but one thing is for sure: They are tailor-made to catch the believer off guard. Many sincere believers fall before they even know what hit them."
"How can a person who has consistently walked with God be so powerfully seduced to ungodliness? Somewhere along the way, the godly person walked into a well-spun lie. Lies are Satan's stock in trade. He "fathers" every deception (John 8:44) and seduction (2 Cor. 11:2-3)."
"When we receive Christ, we are made clean. Ephesians 5:25-26 tells us that 'Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to Himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.' Satan so vehemently despises what Christ has done for mortals that one of his chief objectives is to make the clean feel unclean. Oh how he desires to stain the beautiful bride of Christ. Satan can't make the bride do anything, so he does everything he can to get her to by corrupting thoughts and manipulating feelings."
"If we have received Christ as our Savior, Satan is forced to work from the outside rather than the inside. Thus, he manipulates outside influences to affect the inside decision-makers of the heart and mind."
I was a prime target. Awesome new life season, yet pulling away from old friends, struggling with self-sufficiency, pride and deception….vulnerable.
I was also trying to find my fit with my new job. Without going into too much detail, it was a new business for me and on top of that, I was trying to figure out how to work with/for friends and how to balance business with friendship. I was taking on more and more responsibility, handling scheduling, communication, managing staff and dealing with customers so the email communication between me and my boss was increasing as well as the meetings. It was a lot to balance.
I was not getting much, if any, support at home, and I was also struggling with having to watch and face daily this family (our friends) that seemed to be everything I had always wanted. The Bible also talks about the dangers of comparison and coveting….both are dangerous sins that I struggled with greatly during this season.
Again, Beth's words could be my own: "I did not plan to veer from the path. Nothing could have been further from my mind. I loved God with every ounce of my handicapped heart. If I had known then what I know now, I would have known I was a devout young woman sitting pretty for seduction. I had several tangles with the devil before I allowed God to teach me how to defend myself. I hate some of the places I've been and ways I had to learn, but I am here to testify that I am no longer easy prey."
I'm sure you can tell by now where this is headed. This is my story so I cannot speak for the man involved or judge his heart or motives in any way except to say that he was used meticulously by the enemy in his attack. Satan's ambush was calculated, timed perfectly, and he was in no hurry.
While Satan's attack was targeted and the details were perfectly orchestrated, we also know from the book of Ecclesiastes that there is nothing new under the sun. And now that I can see clearly, looking back, the situation is as old as time.
It all came about slowly. First it was the increase in email communication and building a working relationship. Early on, his wife was very involved, but shortly after I took over, her focus shifted almost completely to their home/family and her involvement in the business was minimal. As he and I got to know each other better, there was some joking around. While it was fun, I was mostly just trying to find the balance with the working relationship.
Pretty soon, the one-on-one meetings he was calling were increasing. During this time, he sent a couple of suggestive messages, but quickly dismissed them as typos / sent in error. I had no idea until much later that he was testing the waters.
Subtly, he waited for the perfect opportunity to take the relationship to the next level. I remember it clearly. My dad, only 58 years old at the time, had a minor heart attack – a completely clogged artery that he caught literally in the nick of time. My husband was out of town when it happened, and he and his wife came by to check on me. Later that night, he texted me to ask if I was ok….and he started asking questions….about my family and about me…..he showed genuine interest, care and concern. Something my heart hadn't felt in a very long time. Somewhat innocently, I went along with it and began to open up.
My husband became increasingly checked out during this season….he was traveling a little for work and quite a bit for fun, whether it was hunting or golfing…he was often gone on the weekends leaving me and our daughter alone.
The communication increased again – work correspondence would often move into a personal conversation and we would email late into the evenings, although it still seemed harmless.
Then it happened. My husband was out of town on a hunting trip. His wife was also out of town. It was a Friday evening and he texted me. We joked around a bit and then he hit on me. He made a joke about coming over. I had no idea what was happening. I was shocked. He persisted… I laughed off, dismissed it, and ended the conversation.
I remember calling my mom the next morning and telling her what had happened. I was still in shock. What had happened? Weren't they the perfect couple, the perfect family? Didn't they have it all? I was a nobody….hurting, frustrated, wanting desperately to be seen, to be known, to be loved. My mom advised me to ignore it, let it go, and be very careful.
It happened again the next night. I laughed off again and tried to dismiss it. Was he being serious? Was he just playing around? What was happening? This was someone I trusted….someone who had been a spiritual leader in my life….someone I admired…and all of that aside, my boss. I had known and been a part of their family for years now. They helped me through my separation and I had lived in their home. His wife was one of my best friends. I loved her….she trusted me. I loved their kids. I was a role model and had spent time with their oldest. Their youngest was just a few months older than our daughter…they were sure to be close friends. I was practically running their business. He was in the public eye…he had a reputation to uphold.
What was I supposed to do now? I was terrified and felt trapped instantly. The deeply loyal part of me wouldn't let me say anything. How could I? I could handle this. I was strong. Nothing was going to happen anyway. I couldn't say anything….I felt responsible (obviously false responsibility!!). I didn't want to hurt his wife, their family, or him for that matter. I didn't want to lose my job. What would happen? And so….I decided to cover it….keep it secret…..handle it. Big mistake.
The problem with that was that I couldn't handle it. Part of me craved the attention. Little did I know I was already in over my head (remember the nature of deception) and my decision to keep it secret sealed my fate. Looking back, I really believe that the only way out for me would have been to quit the job and completely walk away.
Galations 6:1 talks about getting "caught" in sin. One of the definitions of the Greek word for "caught" or prolambano describes sin like this: "catching the individual by surprise, suddenly, without notice…before he is aware of what has happened. After catching his prey off guard, then the enemy does all he can to make the victim feel completely trapped."
I dismissed the first few passes, but truth is, I was hooked…..this was my "unexpected, tailor-made, overwhelming season of temptation" described earlier. Once I decided to stay in it, I was powerless and truly felt trapped. Lie, lie, lie!!! It is through tears and knots in my stomach that I share this. It grieves me so deeply. I don't want to recount it….I don't want to go there. It hurts to admit what I did. But I choose to go there for deeper healing and freedom for myself and hopefully for others, for overcoming Satan by the word of my testimony, and to continue to forgive myself.
For the next couple of months, text conversations continued ….and continued to cross line after line. We were in a full-blown emotional affair.
I can't speak for him because I don't know what was going on behind the scenes, but my husband was completely clueless….which made it even easier to go deeper and deeper. I'll address this piece later, but I can't begin to explain the pain of being caught so deeply in sin, betraying everything you've ever known and believed….the very essence of who you are, and having the person that you are supposed to be one with not even notice.
As these things go, unguarded thoughts became words and the words eventually became actions. One thing lead to another and within a few short months, the affair became physical.
For the sake of length, I'm going to break here. Stay tuned. Thanks for bearing with me.

Editor's Note: Jaswant Singh is the only person to have served as India's finance minister (1996, 2002-2004), foreign minister (1998-2004), and defense minister (2000-2001). This article was originally published by Project Syndicate. For more from them, visit their new website and follow it on Facebook and Twitter.
By Jaswant Singh, Project Syndicate
Isolated and impoverished by decades of international sanctions, Myanmar (Burma) has emerged in recent months as both a beacon of hope and a potential new Asian flashpoint. With Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi freed from two decades of house arrest to campaign vigorously for a seat in parliament in the special election to be held on April 1, Burma's commitment to rejoining the international community appears to be genuine. But this opening has other consequences, most importantly setting the stage for a new "great game" of strategic competition.
No one should be surprised that Burma is a locus of interest for great powers. After all, it is larger than France and with a similar population size. In his recent book Monsoon, Robert Kaplan notes that in the Middle Ages three kingdoms lay between Thailand (then called Siam) and India. One was Myanmar, which means "that which is central." Centuries later, Burma remains central, not only in matters of Asian security, but also for the country's vast and still mostly untapped natural wealth.
Burma's strategic importance reflects, first and foremost, its geographic location between India, China, Thailand, and Southeast Asia. Ringed in the north by the southern ridges of the Himalayas, to the east by foothills of dense teak forests, and to the west and south by the Bay of Bengal and Indian Ocean, Burma's geography has always shaped the country's history and politics.
In 1885, during an earlier era of great power competition in Asia, Lord Randolph Churchill, Winston Churchill's father, impulsively annexed Burma to the British Raj in India following the Third Anglo-Burmese War. Thant Myint-U, a leading historian of contemporary Burma (and the son of former United Nations Secretary-General U Thant), likened Churchill's move to "throwing Burma off a cliff."
Only in 1937, by a decree of the British viceroy, was Burma finally separated from British India. But the Japanese invasion five years later subjugated Burma and its people to colonial rule once again, with the conquering sweep of the Imperial Japanese Army checked only at Imphal, in India's Manipur state.
The end of the British Empire in 1947 gave Burma its freedom, but did not end its travails. The assassination of Aung San (Suu Kyi's father and the leader of Burma's independence movement) destabilized the country, paving the way for the army to take over. Under its long-serving military junta, Burma shut itself off from the world, internalized its problems, and stagnated as the rest of Asia boomed. The world reciprocated, isolating Burma economically and diplomatically.
It was to this Burma that I journeyed from Imphal some 10 years ago, the first Indian foreign minister to travel overland to its neighbor since independence. India's Border Roads Organization had recently completed the first all-weather road connecting the two countries since WWII. Journeying on this "road to fabled Mandalay," I recorded in my diary, was a highlight of "one of the most memorable, satisfying, and happy foreign visits in my experience as Foreign Minister."
China, too, has endeavored for centuries to bind Burma to itself, mostly in search of a southern route to India and the Indian Ocean. In recent decades, China took advantage of the international community's shunning of Burma to secure its own strategic interests, building highways, railways, ports, and pipelines that connect southern and western China to the Indian Ocean.
But trade has not been China's only motivation for investing so heavily in Burma. China also views Burma as vital to its quest for security, as well as to the regional expansion of Chinese power.
Reflecting its fears about the potential for Chinese encirclement, democratic India, after early hiccups of doubt, set aside its scruples about Burma's military regime. India's cultural, economical, social, and sometimes military ties with Burma – indeed, with the entire region – are older than China's. So, for reasons of Realpolitik, India expanded its activities and investments in Burma throughout the last two decades of the junta's rule.
Sometimes the competition with China is direct. At the Shwe gas fields along the Burmese cost, estimated to be among the largest reserves in the world, two pipelines are to be constructed: one to China from the nearby port of Kyauk Phru, and the other to India from the port of Sittwe.
For Thant, this strategic competition is worrying. The "crossroads through Burma," he argues, cannot "be a simple joining up of countries," because the regions of "China and India that are being drawn together over Burma are among the most far-flung parts of the two giant states, regions of unparalleled ethnic and linguistic diversity….isolated upland societies that were, until recently, beyond the control of Delhi or Beijing."
While China seeks strategic depth in Burma, India's interests there are now reanimated by the international community's opening to a country that appears to yearn for the same democratic freedoms that Indians possess. And, in Aung San Suu Kyi, who studied in New Delhi (as did her mother, Daw Khin Kyi, who was Ambassador to India and Nepal in 1960), Burma possesses a charismatic moral leader who reminds Indians of their country's own founders.
As a result, Realpolitik and economic interest alone will no longer shape the great game playing out in Burma. Ideals and the quest for freedom will also play a critical role.
The views expressed in this article are solely those of Jaswant Singh.
Jaswant needs to understand that India has been relegated to the role of babysitter to Burma/Myanmar and Bangladesh. So he he is trying to make lemonade out of a lemon. Here is the reality.....
PAKISTAN.....The New Gateway to Central Asia and Europe.
With a population of over 180 million most of whom are well educated, English speaking, entrepreneurial and a cultural and social fit with Central Asians...Pakistan will now become the new face and gateway to Central Asia and Europe. Pakistan will thus span this region and provide the impetus for growth, prosperity and unity among these countries. These are new and exciting times for Pakistanis who should now look forward to their new leadership role aligned with Central Asia and Europe rather than the Subcontinent. We wish them much success as they have sacrificed the most during the past 30 + years creating a new world order.
Pakistan has suffered immensely as a result of a fragmented educational system coupled with issues of access, quality and governance. Pakistan's primary and secondary enrolment ratios are 46 and 21 percent of the relevant age groups – only one-half the average for all low income countries. Only about half of those who enrolled in school stayed on until the fourth grade in comparison with an average of about two thirds for all low income countries Within the South Asia region, Pakistan lags well behind its neighbors in enrolment; net primary enrolment rates are 50% in Pakistan, 75% in Bangladesh, 77% in India and 100% in Sri Lanka. By all criteria, Pakistan's educational system is at the bottom of the international ladder.
Both Aung San Suu Kyi and President Thein Sein are writing Myanmar's history. "The attention of the whole world has focused on the by-elections" he said and urged all people and all parties to "respect the decision of the people". Not long ago, his country was seen as a pariah state and his military regime routinely suppressed and ignored the wishes of the people. The world hopes that Suu Kyi will ensure that the president is able to continue to drive reforms forward. She says she trusts him and her vote of confidence has been largely responsible for the outside world's decision to engage with the new government.
Silly little girl, "Both Aung San Suu Kyi and President Thein Sein are writing Myanmar's history".??????????????
They are, inshallah, enabling a successful future.
It is kind of amuzing that you would admit to thinking that two people can write a country's history.
The sudden interest in Myanmar is timed to US/NATO pullout from Afghanistan and further attempts to get closer to China and contain it geopolitically. The efforts to achieve the same objectives via India have yielded minimal results as China has turned the tables and in turn contained India. The next decade should be interesting and expect China to slice up India further taking territories in the north and north east bordering Burma. The timing would be perfect as US and Europe would be recuperating from the Afghan Iraq sojourns and too tired too respond...in fact wink wink they have cut a deal amongst themselves. In turn, expect Pakistan to pull away from China and gravitate towards Russia and central Asia enroute to new Europe of which Turkey will be a key player.
Sudden interest???
Burma-specific sanctions began following the Tatmadaw's violent suppression of popular protests in 1988, and have continued through several subsequent periods in which Congress perceived major human rights violations in Burma. The result is a web of overlapping sanctions with differing restrictions, waiver provisions, expiration conditions, and reporting requirements.
"slice up India"? What dream-land are you living in, my Pakistani friend? India today is not the same pathetic country of the 1960s and 1950s. Nobody is going to slice us up.
IIndia and Pakistan are trying to get a free-trade pact going. If that passes, it will create millions of jobs in Pakistan and perhaps lead to peace between the two countries. Nobody in the world will be able to stand up to strong India and a strong Pakistan.
However you can continue trying your jihadi BS and see where your ghairat takes you though. Your country is in a very dark place right now, but I promise you it will be in a MUCH darker place if you don't get with the program.
IDarkness or light, it is entirely up to you.
Sounds like history repeating itself. A good country opens itself to the world with good intentions. Then it gets exploited. Then it shuts down. Then it opens up. Then it gets exploited. Capitalism, globalism, and so much of the other whatever isms are missing the big picture. The world is racing around with plenty of natural and man-made problems with no clear focus or effort on mankind as a whole. From an idyllic perspective, could you imagine what progress we could make if the entire global military budget, manpower, and effort were transferred (even for just a few years) to getting us off this hurling mass we call Earth ? But nooooooooo! We're all too wrapped up, guilty, and stuck in our individual, selfish, mismanaged, wasted, and often pointless struggles. What a shame!

SXSW Film review: 'One & Two' a bizarre fairy tale
Screening in the "Visions" category this year, "One & Two" is the narrative debut film from Andrew Droz Palermo, who previously won a jury prize at Sundance for his documentary "Rich Hill."
This visually stunning movie plays out like a bizarre fairy tale that is part "Dogtooth" and part "A Secret Garden." It focuses on a family with two teenage children who are living in a very rural area, keeping to themselves while tending to a farm. It's difficult to know what time period we're supposed to be in as there's no electricity in the home and they lead a very simple life, but occasionally airplanes fly overhead. This is one of the many signs that something isn't quite what it seems.
Kiernan Shipka ("Mad Men") and Timothee Chalamet ("Interstellar") play a brother and sister who are exceptionally close. While they tend to clash with their gruff father (Grant Bowler), their mother (Elizabeth Reaser) is kind and gentle and seems to balance out their tense family dynamic. After their mom begins to exhibit signs of a serious illness, their isolated nature contributes to life as they've known it falling apart.
Unrelated (at least I think), both teenagers have an unexplained power that admittedly looks amazing on screen, but is so oddly limited that it just feels underdeveloped. To go much further into the story would venture too heavily into spoiler territory, but I do think that both of the young leads give great performances, and the cinematography is frequently breathtaking. There are some really interesting elements here, but they don't add up to the sum of the film's admittedly intriguing parts.
"One & Two" screens again on Wednesday at 7:45 p.m. at the Marchesa.

Links to this site have been disabled for one or several reasons including: the site is no longer operating, many member complaints, bad billing practices, severe functional problems or a dispute with the site owner.
When I first saw the site title, Yellow Eden, I thought would be a piss site but it seems to be mostly guys from 19 to their early 20s in hardcore and solo pics and vids. The tour doesn't really seem to focus on a theme, and doesn't make a lot of claims, but some of the guys are pretty hot. They seem to mostly be jock-types from central or eastern Europe, which means uncut cocks. It's been around 3 months since the site launched, so we thought we'd take a look at the changes and updates and let you know whatis been happening in the site.
I have a few issues with the tour. One is that when you click to join, you will see that it has a number of videos listed - at the moment it says there are 21 videos. In reality, those 21 videos are 21 clips from 11 full scenes, so that number is misleading. Another issue is that the latest updates are shown on the tour, and there's a 1 1/2 month gap where there were no updates. And last, the updates claim to be stories but in reality there are no stories inside Yellow Eden - just pic sets or videos with no stories or descriptive text.
The member area of Yellow Eden lists each piece of content on two pages, each with a big thumb and links. Some of the sets listed are pics, some are videos - they're all thrown together in no particular order with no descriptions. Luckily the pics and videos are good quality - always a plus. While the info for each pic set or video doesn't include the date each update was added, the site has added 5 videos and 9 pic sets since I did my original review a little over 3 months ago - not exactly full weekly updates, but at least they're adding fresh content.
The videos are WMVs that are shown at 450 x 338 with a bitrate of over 1 Mbps. Although they could be bigger, they are sharp and clear and play smoothly. For those who would prefer watching the videos at a larger size, good news is that they don't lose too much quality if you watch them full screen. Most of the vids are offered in several clips of several minutes each, and although I prefer full scenes, these weren't bad. The videos don't use DRM, so whatever you save will play even after your membership has expired.
There have been a couple changes at Yellow Eden. One is that the pic sets are now offered in zip files, which is a plus. The other change is that they've removed the trial, which is a shame since the full month is fairly pricy considering the small size of the site and slow updates.
Yellow Eden offers exclusive videos and pic sets. The performers cute and horny euro guys with uncut cocks, and the action is a mix of solo and hardcore. Video and pic quality is pretty good and all content is downloadable. The thing holding this site back is its size, price and slow updates. After 3 months, there are 11 videos and 25 pic sets and membership costs over $25 a month. Still, if you like the guys on the tour and don't mind smaller sites, Yellow Eden may be worth joining for a month.

Wow, how is it July already? Life sure does move pretty fast, you were right Ferris Bueller.
Tomorrow, Dave and I are heading out to a state park in PA to go camping. We are bringing Daisy along too, should be fun! After a little down time, our weekends are starting to fill up, so it will be nice to go on a little family adventure in the woods.
Happy weekend!

The proposed new build hotel is situated in a very scenic location in Poole, South West England.
The proposed project involved the construction of a 5 storey concrete frame, with car parking at basement level, reception at ground and hotel rooms above. At the roof level there are high end spa facilities, roof garden and spectacular views over the waterfront. It was proposed that the roof and external walls will be substantially clad in timber to emphasise the nautical and boat building traditions of the area.

Writer/Dir: Lars von Trier (Dancer in the Dark, Dogville)
Cast: Willem Dafoe, Charlotte Gainsbouroug
Denmark/Germany/France/Sweden/Italy/Poland, 2009
First off, I have to say that after seeing Dancer in the Dark I didn't think I would see another Lars von Trier film. Not that it wasn't a good film, but I was so mad after seeing it that I didn't want to go through something like that again. But the anticipation built from Cannes (where Charlotte Gainsbouroug won Best Actress), to all the buzz at TIFF, including stories of walkouts and other various reactions, my curiosity got the best of me.
The film starts of beautiful and wonderous. Visually spectacular and haunting, I was amazed at the beauty but then just as quickly it turns dark where it sits, stirs and ruptures our thoughts and emotions. Centred on working through a process, and what approach to take gives us intellectual stimulation on what we are presented with but the film creates a purposefully isolation which makes it frustrating as it confines the viewer to the limited belief systems created. It creates it's own boundaries, which is brilliant but also infuriating.
The film kept my interest to a point. When it was discussing ideas and the processes it was interesting, questioning, even if it was done in a light with a power imbalance and blurring the lines of relationships. But, it got to point where it went from theory to making a statement and at that point it lost me, I didn't believe the statement within the context of the film nor in reality and from a women's perspective I think it's an awful idea to have floating out there.
What does keep you reeled in is the fantastic acting by both Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbouroug who the film focuses on exclusively. It was great to see Willem Dafoe in a couple - we don't usually see that from him and he did a fantastic job. The relationship between the two was real, it truly felt like we were seeing a long standing couple deal with a hard situation, with all the good, bad and ugly that can come with it.
Warnings: Explicit images, violence, extremely disturbing images
DVD Extras:
- Feature Commentary with director Lars von Trier and journalist Murray Smith: Given the controversial response to the film, I'm a little surprized to see that this commentary is a very gently guided one focusing on more on general film influences and Lars von Trier's body of work over the themes, inspiration and reactions. Certainly for very much geared to fans of Lars von Trier's work and it is interesting, however I was hoping it would be a little more enlightening on why over how.
- The Antichrist Test (6 minutes) - The film in process from drawings to locations, concept to creation as they test out different aspects of the film. Includes behind the scenes and resulting test footage, plus interviews with director Lars von Trier, VFX Supervisor Peter Hjorth (in Danish with English subtitles)
- Antichrist - Chaos Reigns at the Cannes Film Festival 2009 (7 minutes) behind the scenes style footage of director Lars von Trier and actors Willem Dafoe & Charlotte Gainsbourg on the day of the premiere including red carpet footage, interviews, meeting festival representatives, the press, press conference & fans along with audience reception of the screening.
- Confessions About Anxiety (5 minutes) director Lars von Trier discusses the experience and effect of anxiety, therapy and the journeys and processes that inspiration the film. Also includes interviews with VFX Supervisor Peter Hjorth, director of photography Anthony Dod Mantle and film clips.
- Eden - Production Design (5 minutes) film clips, on location footage and interviews with production designer Karl "Kalli" Juliusson, director Lars von Trier and producer Meta Louise Foldager about location scouting, challenges, creation the cabin and surrounding area along with discussing stylistic choices.
- The Sound and Music of Antichrist (13 minutes) interview with sound designer Kristian Eidnes Andersen on working on the project, challenges, creating the music, the natural oriented sound design and some of the unconventional gathering processes and alterations that went into creating the sound and music for the film. Also includes interviews with Barokksolistern director Bjarte Eike, mezzo soprano Tuva Semmingsen and excepts during the process of recording the music (in Danish with English subtitles).
- The Three Beggars - The Animals of Antichrist (8 minutes) Behind the scenes footage and interview with animal handler Ota Bares on the working with the ravens, deer and fox in the film including the process of working with and training the animals, as well as the challenges. Also includes interviews with VFX Supervisor Peter Hjorth, director Lars von Trier and response from actor Willem Dafoe on working with the animals. I really liked this feature, the animals are awesome.
- The Make-Up Effects and Props of Antichrist (8 minutes) behind the scenes footage, film clips and interviews with make-up effecs and special props Morten Jacobsen & Thomas Foldbeg on the process of working with Lars von Trier as well as up close detail on the practical effects. Fair warning that this is pretty graphic which makes complete sense considering the contest of the film but seeing some of the effects from conception to realization got me me a little squirmy.
- The Evil of Woman (7 minutes) film clips, interviews with director Lars von Trier, researcher Heidi Laura and producer Meta Louise Foldager on the research done on into looking into the proof of the evil nature of women. Oddly most of the quotes and references drawn are from men, but it does shed some light into the She character's mind and the inspiration of some of the decisions.
- The Visual Style of Antichrist (15 minutes) film clips and interview with director of photography Anthony Dod Mantle on the visual style of the film, how certain styles were technically achieved and the equipment used. Also includes interviews with director Lars von Trier, producer Meta Louise Foldager and VFX Supervisor Peter Hjorth on the process of putting it all together and test footage.
- Interviews from Cannes Film Festival 2009 with actors Charlotte Gainsbourg (6 minutes) a beautifully open interview on the process of filmmaking including what felt dangerous, if watching it was embarrassing and trust while working with director Lars von Trier and Willem Dafoe (8 minutes) on how he got involved with the project, working with director Lars von Trier and a very insightful response back to peoples strong reactions to the film. Really great interviews.
Shannon's Overall View:
I enjoyed it more than expected
I have watched it again
I'd recommend it to fans of dark films and harsh films

Tesla Model S Based Minivan to Fill Void - All Cars Electric
I think All Cars misses the market here. A Electric MiniVan would not be primarily for Soccer Moms but for delivery services. The Post Office did a study and showed an EV platform made perfect sense for their known routes.

I remember coming across a website where I could type in some code and it would compile and run it (or error out), displaying any console output. It accepted a variety of interpreted and non-interpreted languages — I specifically remember that I could use C (maybe Python too... I'm not completely sure).
Does anyone know what site I'm talking about?
